Ⅰ.阅读理解(共15小题；每小题2.5分，满分37.5分) A Whether you’re longing for well-being, meditation or a new outlook on life, these are the best British holiday retreats for immersing yourself and refreshing your soul. Put less pressure on yourself and invest in a little me-time. Eco Yoga Argyll, Scotland Anyone wishing to holiday without the carbon footprint should seriously consider retreating to Eco Yoga in the dazzling Scottish countryside. You’ll be interested from the start with numerous yoga choices, receiving guidance on everything from Ashtanga to Yin and Hatha Yoga FitAgain, Dorset Located in picturesque West Dorset, FitAgain is run by a wife and husband duo (搭档) who now focus on nutrition, adventure-filled exercise and motivational speaking to keep their guests’ minds and bodies alert. “We truly care about the people who come to us so we give them as much help as we can after the retreat. We want to continue their goals when they’re back in their normal busy day-to-day lives, using ongoing three-month support through our FitAgain app,” they said. Wild & Free, Cornwall This women-only retreat aims to reconnect you with the earth while you navigate the waves and calm your mind through yoga, all within the stunning scenery of Cornwall’s coastline. It focuses on “re-wilding” yourself. For a female adventurer who needs a short holiday from her lively career and home life, this trip is a love letter to yourself. It’s a chance to breathe without interruption, explore new activities without judgement, and wholly focus on oneself before returning to daily life. Arvon Writers’ Retreat, Shropshire Every writer fears the sensation of longing to write, but sitting down to do just that and simply losing inspiration. And, as frustrating as this may be, it’s not always the fault of the writer — what’s really needed is a little encouragement and relaxation. Simplicity is the key with this retreat. Delicious meals are provided and are enjoyed with other writers, luxurious yet understated bedrooms will inspire rather than distract and the workshop and library will give you pockets of inventive vision every time you venture in. 21．Which one is environmentally friendly among the four retreats? A．Eco Yoga Argyll. B．FitAgain. C．Wild & Free, Cornwall. D．Arvon Writers’ Retreat. 22．Who may prefer Arvon Writers’ Retreat most? A．A director. B．A photographer. C．A novelist. D．An engineer. 23．What do the four listed retreats have in common? A．They are all in British. B．They all offer post-service. C．They are all couple-friendly. D．They all provide library time. B Puffins are adorable birds with big, colorful beaks (喙) that live in grassy cliffs in the Far North. One summer day, my husband and I boarded the boat to Flatey Island, eager to catch a glimpse of these charming creatures. As soon as the boat left the harbor, the rain started pouring. The wind picked up, and the boat began to jump. I was beginning to feel seasick. By the time we reached the island, my fingers were blue. The boat wouldn’t go back for four hours. We huddled under the shelter of a warehouse, wondering what to do. Then a woman wearing mittens (手套) came close to us. “You look cold,” she said. “Would you like to come to our house for lunch?” It was a small yellow house at the edge of the village. It was full of people, young and old. They made room for us at the table. We ate and drank a lot, and they told us all about the puffins and the other birds on the island. It was almost time for the boat to leave, our new friend Sigrid walked in the rain with us to the puffins’ cliffs. We sat still on the wet rocks, watching the birds fly right toward us, cocking their heads as if wondering what we were doing on their island. They made us laugh. When the boat whistle blew, Sigrid took my hand to say good-bye. “Your hands are so cold!” Slipping her mittens off, she handed them to me. “You need to have mittens for the boat ride,” she said. It’s been seventeen years, and I still have Sigrid’s mittens. They’re not fancy and bright like the puffin’s beak. But as much as I liked those funny little birds, it’s the mittens I think of when I remembered the island. I’ve spent years trying to be as kind to someone else as Sigrid was to me that day. 24．What was unexpected for the couple at first? A．Remote living place of the puffins. B．The peaceful boat ride. C．Delay in getting on board. D．The cold rainy weather. 25．What does the underlined word “huddled” mean in paragraph 3? A．Walked. B．Crowded. C．Chatted. D．Relaxed. 26．Which word can best describe the couple’s trip on Flatey Island? A．Disappointing. B．Struggling. C．Exciting. D．Heart-warming. 27．What is the best title for the text? A．Puffins and Mittens B．A Close Puffin Watching C．A Magical Trip to Flatey Island D．Surviving a Day with Sigrid C River surfing was inspired by ocean surfing, but its popularity is growing all on its own. Traditional surfing began more than 3,000 years ago in Western Polynesia. First making its way to Hawaii, the sport has since spread across the globe, leaving in its wake wave — chasers from all corners of the planet — even land-locked places. Some surfers hungry for waves but without coastlines have turned to river surfing, which delivers a similar experience in ocean-less conditions. In 1970’s Munich, a small group of adventurous surfers took to the Eisbach River near Englischer Garten Park. Holding tight to two ropes attached to a bridge, they balanced on wooden planks (厚木板) in the river to imitate the ocean surfing they had experienced abroad. This is the moment many river surfers believe the sport was born. River waves are formed either by water flowing quickly downstream over a drop in sea level, creating standing waves, or by tidal bores (涌潮), which occur where rivers meet the sea. The speed of the water controls the energy of a wave, while the length of the drop decides its size. Because the thickness of a wave also matters (surf fails if there’s just a few inches of water), the size of the river channel is also important. Rideable waves can occur with slow flow and small drop conditions if the river channel is narrow enough to create a thick wave, and the opposite is true for wide channels. Because flow can change from day to day and season to season, thanks to a previous winter’s snowfall or other natural phenomena, even an expert has to be at the right spot on the right day to discover a surfable river wave. There are a handful river waves across the U. S. that are particularly worth checking out. Don’t forget your personal equipment and, for rocky or debris-filled (充满杂物的) rivers, a helmet. 28．Which description of river surfing is true from the passage? A．It first occurred in Hawaii. B．It has lasted for more than 3,000 years. C．It actually is a replacement for ocean surfing. D．It has become more popular than traditional surfing. 29．Where is river surfing considered to be created? A．In the Eisbach River. B．In Western Polynesia. C．In Littleton, Colorado. D．In Englischer Garten Park. 30．Which is correct about the river channel? A．It affects tidal bores. B．Its size decides the thickness of waves. C．Narrow river channels create slow river flow. D．Wide river channels contribute to rapid and thick waves. 31．What’s the purpose of the last sentence? A．To note that river surfing is actually fascinating. B．To showcase the difficulty finding a perfect wave. C．To express the necessity of professional equipment. D．To stress the importance of safety when river surfing. D Mia, a pre-adolescent of twelve years, is currently embarking on an annual peregrination with her progenitors and trio of juvenile siblings, distant from their domicile in Quebec, Canada. The familial unit has partaken in equine excursions through the Mongolian steppes, navigated waterways in Cambodia via kayak, sojourned amidst the Namibian wilderness, and soared above the Turkish landscape in a hot air balloon, all in pursuit of a repository of experiences that may occur but once in their existence. These reminiscences hold profound significance as, barring a scientific marvel in the near term, the progeny are destined to succumb to blindness in their maturation. They have been afflicted with a malady that lacks efficacious intervention and possesses an indeterminate schedule, progressively depriving them of the faculty of vision. The revelations of their conditions emerged in 2015. In the face of sorrow, the parents were struck by Mia’s composure at the tender age of seven. She proclaimed the necessity to cultivate an environment of order within her chamber, ensuring that every object held its rightful place. “I shall require prescience of the location of all articles,” Mia articulated. “She is autonomously devising remedies,” the parents remarked to one another. “We must adhere to her guidance.” Consequently, the concept of a yearlong expedition was conceived, one designed to expose the offspring to the panorama of the globe, in a manner both direct and intimate — whilst their visual faculties remained intact. For the subsequent biennium, the progenitors have amassed financial resources and investigated prospective destinations. “The disparity in the perspectival apprehension of the world by adults and children is vast,” the matriarch, Edith, remarked. “Our journey must eschew a focus on religious monuments and institutions of learning, instead gravitating towards whatever captures their gaze.” As the odyssey commenced its conclusion in the nascent stages of 2023, the family had traversed 52,000 miles and traversed eighteen nations. Mia, elongated in stature and on the cusp of adolescence, sought greater autonomy. Her confreres in youth were transformed, exuding an enhanced air of assurance and sociability. The progeny were acutely conscious of the wealth of knowledge they had amassed. “Existence is replete with affliction and destitution, yet it is also abundant in virtue and intriguing phenomena. We ought to maintain a positive stance,” Mia pronounced. 32．What’s the probable function of the first paragraph? A．To lead in the story behind. B．To arouse the readers’ interest. C．To provide background information. D．To inform readers of a wonderful trip. 33．What can be inferred about the parents from paragraph 3 and 4? A．They are optimistic about the children’s disease. B．They are surprised at their daughter’s creative ideas. C．They are proud of their daughter’s courage to face difficulties. D．They are open-minded enough to respect their children’s decision. 34．What is the last paragraph mainly about? A．The details about the year-long journey. B．The keen anticipation of Mia about the future. C．The changes of the kids physically and mentally. D．The impression Mia had of what she had experienced. 35．Which is the best title of the story? A．Seeing is believing. B．Making the most of the vision. C．Man who travels far knows more. D．The eyes are the window to the soul. Ⅱ.阅读七选五(共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) While traveling, it’s important to do it in a way that preserves these natural attractions for the next generation to enjoy as well. It’s always a good idea to travel in an environmentally friendly way. 36 The following are some tips for eco-friendly travel. Look for a green label (标签) The demand for eco-friendly travel has resulted in a sharp increase of environmentally friendly labels used by businesses, hotels, and products in the travel industry. 37 There are a few ways to do the research and find out which labels are really environmentally friendly. One choice is to look at the online guides that go through the details of several common labels. Ask questions 38 Wise travelers can research, ask, or talk to travel companies. This will discover the problems behind the label. Research is absolutely important because there’s a lot of smoke and mirrors in this business. You wouldn’t just buy a car from an ad without understanding what it was or comparing it to others. Fly less and fly direct When you fly, make it count. Use long-distance flights when necessary. But change to more eco-friendly choices for more local destinations. 39 By traveling over land, one can cut carbon emissions (碳排放) by as much as 50 percent or 80 percent. Stay local and buy local Another way to cut down on flights is to get in touch with the local community. 40 And it can help travelers really understand how life works in that community. Staying local can cut down on travel emissions, and joining in the local community can also reduce a tourist’s cultural and environmental impact. A．Some destinations have overnight trains. B．However, not all these labels are really honest. C．That lets one both tour nature and protect nature. D．It is recommended that travelers stay in one location longer. E．Promoting the local economy can actually have green benefits. F．Trains and buses produce much less carbon emissions than airplanes do. G．Although some companies have green labels, we don’t quite know for sure. Ⅲ.完形填空(共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分) In July, I went to New York on business. My schedule was tight and was under great stress. I just wanted to 41 and breathe in some fresh air. Suddenly something 42 my mind. I was always eager to 43 on the Greek island of Santorini, admiring its white buildings, and the blue water surrounding it. Thus, the idea of taking a two-week European trip 44 was born. It was something I had 45 thought I'd be planning this soon in my life. I had always thought, if it did ever happen, it would be when I was 46 and old, free from the workload. I would lie if I said I wasn't 47 . I'd driven alone across the US before, but traveling to other countries whose 48 weren't the same as mine terrified me. I was worried that I wouldn't be able to communicate with anyone. 49 it occurred to me that I had to 50 my comfort zone if I wanted to follow my dreams. And if I let 51 get in the way, I'd never get anywhere. 52 I searched for other places to visit on my trip, I found Mykonos, Greece, which I liked just as much as I liked Santorini. When I arrived, it was like I was inside a dream. I couldn't 53 what I was seeing and experiencing. The best part was the bus ride to Little Venice. Riding on the bus and staring at every 54 thing I saw, I couldn't help feeling I had 55 another dimension of life. I was having the time of my life. 41．A．stay in B．go back C．carry on D．get away 42．A．crossed B．drove C．changed D．shocked 43．A．hide B．serve C．wander D．settle 44．A．cautiously B．alone C．again D．aimlessly 45．A．once B．already C．never D．often 46．A．bored B．retired C．dull D．lonely 47．A．scared B．excited C．disappointed D．puzzled 48．A．values B．cultures C．languages D．customs 49．A．But B．So C．Or D．Thus 50．A．establish B．find C．step out of D．go back to 51．A．fear B．money C．danger D．communication 52．A．Before B．As C．Since D．Until 53．A．tolerate B．believe C．ignore D．explain 54．A．rare B．traditional C．familiar D．new 55．A．created B．predicted C．escaped D．discovered 第二节(共10小题；每小题1.5分，满分15分) 阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。 On May 18-19, over 130 students and teachers from 19 universities embarked on a two-day trip to Zhenjiang, a city in Jiangsu. During the two-day event, they immersed 56 (they) in China's agricultural history and learned about its modern farming techniques. For Anne Lauren Beer, a 22-year-old UK student at Xi'an Jiaotong-Liverpool University in Suzhou, the trip provided a glimpse into the charm of contemporary rural China. At a "smart" mushroom planting base, Beer 57 (witness) how 5G technology enables the automated control of optimal mushroom-growing conditions. The students were also invited 58 (pick) and cook mushrooms on-site, savoring the flavor when it was at its 59 (fresh). "I'm not usually a fan of mushrooms and sometimes find them unappealing, 60 these ones were so good. It was hard not to love them," Beer said. As an environmental science student, Beer observed that modern agriculture in China retains the benefits of traditional practices while 61 (emphasize) environmental conservation. At an organic farm, she saw 62 local farmers had adapted traditions to incorporate 63 (sustain) practices, such as avoiding pesticides and ensuring crop health through diverse seeds and technical methods.

Dad put his arm around Mom and told them that they were going on a trip to the Virunga Mountains of Africa. There were three national parks that they would visit.

At 12 years old, Rose would prefer going to an amusement park or a beach. She thought it important to let her parents know she didn’t want to go there but to the beach for a week or two. “Well,” said Dad, “I have to go for an assignment for the paper.

(任何想在度假时不留下碳足迹的人都应该认真考虑一下，到令人眼花缭乱的苏格兰乡村去做生态瑜伽。)”可知，任何人希望无碳足迹度假的人应该认真考虑Eco Yoga Argyll，可知此处是环境友好的。故选A。 22．推理判断题。根据Arvon Writers’ Retreat, Shropshire部分中“And, as frustrating as this may be, it’s not always the fault of the writer — what’s really needed is a little encouragement and relaxation. Simplicity is the key with this retreat. Delicious meals are provided and are enjoyed with other writers, luxurious yet understated bedrooms will inspire rather than distract and the workshop and library will give you pockets of inventive vision every time you venture in.( 而且，尽管这可能令人沮丧，但这并不总是作者的错——真正需要的是一点鼓励和放松。简单是这个静修的关键。这里提供美味的饭菜，你可以和其他作家一起享用，豪华而低调的卧室会激发你的灵感，而不是分散你的注意力，每次你冒险进入工作室和图书馆，都会给你带来创造性的视野。)”可知，这个度假胜地是专门为作家设计的，提供美味的食物、与其他作家一同享用的机会，以及工作室和图书馆等设施，旨在激发作家的创造力和想象力。考虑到这些特点，一个小说家将是最有可能喜欢这个度假胜地的人。故选C。 23．细节理解题。根据第一段中“Whether you’re longing for well-being, meditation or a new outlook on life, these are the best British holiday retreats for immersing yourself and refreshing your soul.( 无论你是渴望幸福、冥想还是一种新的人生观，这些都是最好的英国度假胜地，让你沉浸在其中，让你的灵魂焕然一新。)”可知，这四个度假胜地的共同点是它们都位于英国。故选A。 24．D 25．B 26．D 27．A 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者和丈夫在一个夏日里前往Flatey岛观赏海鹦（一种可爱的鸟类）的经历。在遭遇恶劣天气和身体不适的情况下，他们遇到了一位善良的女子Sigrid对其进行帮助。这些经历让作者深深感受到了人与人之间的温暖和善意。 24．细节理解题。根据第二段中“As soon as the boat left the harbor, the rain started pouring. The wind picked up, and the boat began to jump. I was beginning to feel seasick.(船一离开港口，就下起了倾盆大雨。风起了，船开始颠簸。我开始觉得晕船了。)”可知，当船离开港口时，突然下起了大雨，风也大了起来，船开始颠簸，作者开始感到晕船。这表明最初这对夫妇没有预料到会遇到如此寒冷的雨天。故选D。 25．词义猜测题。根据第三段中划线词前面的句子“By the time we reached the island, my fingers were blue. The boat wouldn’t go back for four hours.(当我们到达小岛时，我的手指都发青了。这艘船要四个小时才能返航。)”以及后文“Then a woman wearing mittens(手套) came close to us. “You look cold,” she said. (然后一个戴着手套的女人走近我们。“你看起来很冷，”她说。)”可知，当作者和丈夫到达岛屿时，手指都冻青了，船还需要四个小时后才会返回。因此，他们在仓库的庇护下挤成一团（缩在一起抵御寒冷），想知道接下来该做什么。故划线词与B选项“Crowded.(拥挤的)”为同义词。故选B。 26．推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“When the boat whistle blew, Sigrid took my hand to say good-bye. “Your hands are so cold!” Slipping her mittens off, she handed them to me. “You need to have mittens for the boat ride,” she said.( 船鸣笛时，Sigrid拉着我的手说再见。“你的手好冷啊!”她脱下手套，递给我。“乘船时你需要戴上连指手套，”她说。)”以及最后一段中“It’s been seventeen years, and I still have Sigrid’s mittens. They’re not fancy and bright like the puffin’s beak. But as much as I liked those funny little birds, it’s the mittens I think of when I remembered the island. I’ve spent years trying to be as kind to someone else as Sigrid was to me that day.( 十七年过去了，我还留着Sigrid的连指手套。它们不像海雀的嘴那样华丽明亮。尽管我很喜欢那些有趣的小鸟，但当我想起那个岛时，我想到的却是那副连指手套。多年来，我一直努力像西格丽德那天对我那样善待别人。)”可知，尽管这对夫妇最初遇到了不利的天气条件和困难，但他们遇到了善良的Sigrid，她的热情和善良给他们的旅程带来了温暖。特别是她把手套送给作者以抵御船上的寒冷，这一行为让作者印象深刻，并让她在之后的岁月里努力向别人展现同样的善良。因此，这次旅行可以被描述为“暖心的”。故选D。 27．主旨大意题。通读全文，文章主要讲述了作者和丈夫在前往Flatey岛观看海鹦的过程中遇到了一位善良的女子Sigrid，并讲述了她把手套送给作者以抵御船上的寒冷的温暖故事，这一温暖的行为让作者印象深刻，并让她在之后的岁月里努力向别人展现同样的善良。因此，选项A“Puffins and Mittens(海鹦和手套)”既包含了文章的主题元素——海鹦，也反映了文章的核心情感——手套所代表的善良和温暖，因此是最佳标题。故选A。 28．C 29．A 30．B 31．D 【导语】这是一篇说明文。本文介绍了正在流行起来的河流冲浪。 28．推理判断题。根据第一段中的“some surfers hungry for waves but without coastlines have turned to river surfing, which delivers a similar experience in ocean-less conditions(一些渴望海浪但没有海岸线的冲浪者转向了河上冲浪，这在没有海洋的条件下也能提供类似的体验)”可知，一些冲浪者渴望海浪但是却没身处海岸，于是他们转向河流冲浪。河流冲浪能在没有海的条件下带来海上冲浪相似的体验。由此可推知，河流冲浪实际上是海洋冲浪的替代品。故选C项。 29．细节理解题。根据第二段中的“In 1970’s Munich, a small group of adventurous surfers took to the Eisbach River near Englischer Garten Park... This is the moment many river surfers believe the sport was born.(20世纪70年代的慕尼黑，一小群富有冒险精神的冲浪者来到了恩格利舍加滕公园附近的艾斯巴赫河……这是许多河上冲浪者相信这项运动诞生的时刻。)”可知，河流冲浪被认为诞生在Eisbach River。故选A项。 30．推理判断题。根据第三段中的“ Rideable waves can occur with slow flow and small drop conditions if the river channel is narrow enough to create a thick wave, and the opposite is true for wide channels.(如果河道狭窄到足以形成厚波，则在水流缓慢和落差较小的情况下可能会出现可驾驭的波浪，而宽河道则相反。)”可知，如果河道足够窄到可以制造厚的波浪，河道宽则反之。因此，河道可以决定波浪的厚度，从而影响河流冲浪。故选B项。 31．推理判断题。根据文章最后一句话中的“Don’t forget your personal equipment and, for rocky or debris-filled（充满杂物的） rivers, a helmet.(不要忘记你的个人装备，对于布满岩石或碎片的河流，也不要忘记头盔。)”可知，不要忘了带上自己的装备，为了应对岩石较多或者充满杂物的河流，戴上一顶头盔。本句是在提醒河流冲浪者带好装备以应对较危险的环境。由此可推知，本句意在强调河流冲浪时安全的重要性。故选D项。 32．B 33．D 34．C 35．B 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了一个家庭中的孩子们因为患有会逐渐失去视力的疾病，而决定在他们还能看见的时候尽可能多地体验世界。他们进行了为期一年的全球旅行，希望能够在视力还完好时积累更多的经历和记忆。 32．推理判断题。根据文章第一段“Mia, a pre-adolescent of twelve years, is currently embarking on an annual peregrination with her progenitors and trio of juvenile siblings, distant from their domicile in Quebec, Canada. The familial unit has partaken in equine excursions through the Mongolian steppes, navigated waterways in Cambodia via kayak, sojourned amidst the Namibian wilderness, and soared above the Turkish landscape in a hot air balloon, all in pursuit of a repository of experiences that may occur but once in their existence.(米娅，一个12岁的青春期前女孩，目前正与她的祖先和三个年幼的兄弟姐妹一起，远离他们在加拿大魁北克的住所，开始一年一度的旅行。这个家族成员骑着马在蒙古大草原上远足，乘坐皮划艇在柬埔寨的水道上航行，在纳米比亚的荒野中逗留，乘坐热气球飞越土耳其的风景，所有这些都是为了追求一种可能在他们的存在中只出现一次的经历。)”可知，第一段描述了Mia和她的家庭正在进行的一次年度旅行以及他们所参与过的各种冒险活动，并指出这些经历在他们的生命中可能只会出现一次；由此可知，第一段的功能为了引起读者的兴趣，想要知道为什么这些经历在他们的生命中可能只会出现一次。故选B。 33．推理判断题。根据文章第三段“In the face of sorrow, the parents were struck by Mia’s composure at the tender age of seven. She proclaimed the necessity to cultivate an environment of order within her chamber, ensuring that every object held its rightful place.(面对悲伤，父母被米娅在7岁时的镇定所打动。她宣布有必要在她的房间里营造一个有序的环境，确保每件物品都有其应有的位置。)”和文章第四段““She is autonomously devising remedies,” the parents remarked to one another. “We must adhere to her guidance.” Consequently, the concept of a yearlong expedition was conceived, one designed to expose the offspring to the panorama of the globe, in a manner both direct and intimate – whilst their visual faculties remained intact. For the subsequent biennium, the progenitors have amassed financial resources and investigated prospective destinations. (‘她是自主地想出解决办法的，’父母们相互说道，‘我们必须遵循她的指导。’因此，他们构想了为期一年的探险旅行的概念，旨在以直接而亲密的方式让子女们领略全球的风光，同时他们的视觉功能依然完好。在接下来的两年里，父母们积累了资金，并调查了潜在的目的地。)”可知，父母对Mia的自主性和创造性表示了赞赏，尊重女儿的决定，并遵循她的指导，构想进行为期一年的探险旅行。这表明父母非常开明，尊重孩子决定。故选D。 34．主旨大意题。根据文章最后一段“As the odyssey commenced its conclusion in the nascent stages of 2023, the family had traversed 52,000 miles and traversed eighteen nations. Mia, elongated in stature and on the cusp of adolescence, sought greater autonomy. Her confreres in youth were transformed, exuding an enhanced air of assurance and sociability. The progeny were acutely conscious of the wealth of knowledge they had amassed. “Existence is replete with affliction and destitution, yet it is also abundant in virtue and intriguing phenomena. We ought to maintain a positive stance,” Mia pronounced.(随着这次漫长旅程在2023年初见端倪的阶段接近尾声，这个家庭已经跨越了52,000英里，游历了十八个国家。米娅，身材高挑，正值青春期的门槛，渴望更多的自主权。她的年轻同伴们也发生了蜕变，散发出更加自信和社交的气息。这些后代们深刻地意识到自己所积累的知识财富。‘生活中充满了苦难和贫困，但也充满了美德和有趣的现象。我们应该保持积极的态度，’米娅说道。)”可知，文章最后一段主要描写了孩子们在旅行过程中身心的变化，他们的身高增长，性格变得更加独立和自信。故选C。 35．主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其根据文章第一段“Mia, a pre-adolescent of twelve years, is currently embarking on an annual peregrination with her progenitors and trio of juvenile siblings, distant from their domicile in Quebec, Canada. The familial unit has partaken in equine excursions through the Mongolian steppes, navigated waterways in Cambodia via kayak, sojourned amidst the Namibian wilderness, and soared above the Turkish landscape in a hot air balloon, all in pursuit of a repository of experiences that may occur but once in their existence.(米娅，一个12岁的青春期前女孩，目前正与她的祖先和三个年幼的兄弟姐妹一起，远离他们在加拿大魁北克的住所，开始一年一度的旅行。这个家族成员骑着马在蒙古大草原上远足，乘坐皮划艇在柬埔寨的水道上航行，在纳米比亚的荒野中逗留，乘坐热气球飞越土耳其的风景，所有这些都是为了追求一种可能在他们的存在中只出现一次的经历。)”以及第二段中“They have been afflicted with a malady that lacks efficacious intervention and possesses an indeterminate schedule, progressively depriving them of the faculty of vision.(他们患有一种疾病，缺乏有效的治疗方法，而且时间表不确定，逐渐剥夺了他们的视力。)”可知，文章主要讲述了一个家庭中的孩子们因为患有会逐渐失去视力的疾病，而决定在他们还能看见的时候尽可能多地体验世界。他们进行了为期一年的全球旅行，希望能够在视力还完好时积累更多的经历和记忆。因此，这个故事的主题是“充分利用视力”，即尽可能地利用自己还拥有的视力去体验世界，故B选项“Making the most of the vision”最符合文章主旨，为最佳标题。故选B。 36．C 37．B 38．G 39．F 40．D 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章作者围绕“环保旅游”这一主题，给出了几个建议或方法，旨在帮助读者以更环保的方式旅行，以保护自然环境供后代人继续欣赏。 36．根据上文内容“While traveling, it’s important to do it in a way that preserves these natural attractions for the next generation to enjoy as well. It’s always a good idea to travel in an environmentally friendly way.(在旅行时，重要的是要以一种保护这些自然景点的方式，让下一代也能享受。以环保的方式旅行总是一个好主意)”可知，上文提出环保的旅游方式。选项C“That lets one both tour nature and protect nature.(这样既可以游览自然又可以保护自然。)”指出，环保的旅游方式既可以游览自然又可以保护自然。故选C。 37．根据空后的“There are a few ways to do the research and find out which labels are really environmentally friendly.(有几种方法可以做研究，找出哪些标签是真正环保的)”可推测，并不是所有的标签是真正环保的。选项B“However, not all these labels are really honest.(然而，并不是所有的标签都是诚实的。)”与下文内容相符，指出并不是所有的标签都是诚实的，所以我们需要做研究，从而找出真正环保的标签。故选B。 38．根下文内容“Wise travelers can research, ask, or talk to travel companies. This will discover the problems behind the label. Research is absolutely important because there’s a lot of smoke and mirrors in this business.(明智的旅行者可以研究、询问或与旅游公司交谈。这将发现标签背后的问题。研究是绝对重要的，因为在这个行业里有很多烟雾和镜子)”可知，标签也未必可信。选项G“Although some companies have green labels, we don’t quite know for sure.(虽然有些公司有绿色标签，但我们不太确定。)”与下文内容相符，指出标签未必可信，所以我们需要研究、询问或与旅游公司交谈。故选G。 39．根据下文“By traveling over land, one can cut carbon emissions (碳排放) by as much as 50 percent or 80 percent.(通过陆路旅行，可以减少50%或80%的碳排放)”可知，下文提到陆地旅行的碳排放和飞机旅行相比要少得多。选项F“Trains and buses produce much less carbon emissions than airplanes do.(火车和公共汽车产生的碳排放量比飞机少得多。)”与下文内容相符，指出火车和公共汽车产生的碳排放量比飞机少得多。故选F。 40．根据下文内容“And it can help travelers really understand how life works in that community. Staying local can cut down on travel emissions, and joining in the local community can also reduce a tourist’s cultural and environmental impact. (它可以帮助旅行者真正了解那个社区的生活是如何运作的。住在当地可以减少旅行排放，加入当地社区也可以减少游客对文化和环境的影响)”可知，下文提到“这可以帮助旅行者真正了解那个社区的生活方式”，说明空处指的是待在一个地方，这样可以让旅行者深入了解这个社区。选项D“It is recommended that travelers stay in one location longer.(建议旅行者在一个地方停留更长时间。)”与下文内容一致，指的是当旅行者在一个地方停留很久后，就可以更多了解这个地方。故选D。 41．D 42．A 43．C 44．B 45．C 46．B 47．A 48．C 49．A 50．C 51．A 52．B 53．B 54．D 55．D 【导语】本文为一篇夹叙夹议的文章，文章讲述了自己克服沟通障碍，独自去其他国家旅行，实现了自己的梦想的经历，发现了生活的另一面。 41．考查动词短语辨析。句意：我只想离开这里，出去呼吸新鲜空气。A. stay in待在；B. go back回去；C. carry on继续；D. get away离开。根据前文“My schedule was tight and was under great stress.”可知，我的日程安排很紧，压力很大，因此我想要离开，出去呼吸新鲜空气，故选D。 42．考查动词词义辨析。句意：忽然有个念头穿过我的脑海。A. crossed穿过；B. drove驾驶；C. changed改变；D. shocked震惊。根据后文“Thus, the idea of taking a two-week European trip ___4___ was born.”可知，两周的欧洲之行诞生了，故此处指忽然有个念头穿过我的脑海，故选A。 43．考查动词词义辨析。句意：我一直都想在希腊的Santorini岛上漫步，欣赏它白色的建筑以及周围的海水。A. hide躲藏；B. serve服务；C. wander漫步；D. settle解决。根据后文“admiring its white buildings”可知，欣赏它白色的建筑，因此是在在希腊的Santorini岛上漫步，故选C。 44．考查副词词义辨析。句意：自此我就有了独自去欧洲游览两周的想法。A. cautiously谨慎地；B. alone单独地；C. again再一次；D. aimlessly漫无目的地。根据后文“I'd driven alone across the US before”可知，我曾经独自开车跨越过美国，故此处指自此我就有了独自去欧洲游览两周的想法，故选B。 45．考查副词词义辨析。句意：这是我从未想过这么早就计划的事情。A. once曾经；B. already已经；C. never绝不，从未；D. often经常。根据后文“if it did ever happen”可知，后文提到如果要发生的话，故此处指我从未想过自己会这么早就计划这种事情，故选C。 46．考查形容词词义辨析。句意：如果要发生的话，我一直以为它只会在我年迈、退休、没有工作时发生。A. bored无聊的；B. retired退休的；C. dull无聊的，枯燥的；D. lonely孤独的。根据后文“and old, free from the workload.”可知，后文提到年迈的，没有工作的时候，故此处指退休的时候，故选B。 47．考查形容词词义辨析。A. scared害怕的；B. excited激动的；C. disappointed失望的；D. puzzled困惑的。根据后文“but traveling to other countries whose ___8___ weren't the same as mine terrified me.”可知，到另一个语言不同的国家去旅行会让我感到害怕，故此处指要说自己不害怕，那肯定是在撒谎，故选A。 48．考查名词词义辨析。句意：我曾经独自开车去过美国，但去到一些语言不通的其他国家却让我感到害怕。A. values价值；B. cultures文化；C. languages语言；D. customs风俗。根据后文“I was worried that I wouldn't be able to communicate with anyone.”可知，我担心我无法与他人沟通，故此处指去到一些语言不通的其他国家却让我害怕，故选C。 49．考查连词词义辨析。句意：但是我忽然想到，如果我要追寻梦想就必须走出舒适区。A.

As she flipped through the pages, she saw pictures of the gorillas and read about their habitats and behaviors. Meanwhile, Gina was discovering fascinating facts and watching videos of the gentle giants in their natural environment. Paragraph 2: The next Monday came and the family set out excitedly. As the plane took off, Rose tried to put aside her initial reluctance and immerse herself in the adventure. The journey was filled with new sights and sounds, and Rose gradually found herself fascinated by the unique ecosystem of the Virunga Mountains. She observed the gorillas from a safe distance, marveled at their strength and agility, and was humbled by their place in the natural world. By the end of the trip, Rose had a newfound respect for nature and its creatures, and was grateful for the opportunity to experience such an educational and eye-opening journey. 【导语】文章以旅行为线索展开，讲述了一个小女孩Rose和她的家人即将开始暑假旅行的故事。 Rose原本期待和父母去一个游乐园或海滩度假，但她的父亲却计划带她们去非洲的维龙加山脉看大猩猩，因为父亲要为报纸写一篇关于这些濒危动物的报道。 虽然Rose和她的姐姐Gina一开始对这个计划感到失望，但她们的父亲强调了这次旅行对于了解世界和增长知识的重要性，并要求她们去了解关于大猩猩的信息。 【详解】1.段落续写 ①由第一段首句内容“女孩们拖着脚上楼。”可知，第一段可描写女孩们按照父亲指示查阅有关山地大猩猩的信息。 ②由第二段首句内容“下个星期一到了，一家人兴奋地出发了。”可知，第二段可描写旅行的经历以及女孩们的感悟。 2.续写线索：感到不情愿——查阅资料——旅行经过——感悟。 3.词汇激活 行为类 服从，遵循：comply with/abide by 希望：hope/expect 尝试做某事：try to do sth./attempt to do sth. 充满：be filled with/be full of 情绪类 不情愿地：reluctantly/unwillingly 感激的：grateful/appreciative 【点睛】[高分句型1] Gina opened her laptop and began searching for information on mountain gorillas, while Rose found the book and started flipping through the pages, hoping to find something that would spark her interest.（运用了现在分词作状语，that引导定语从句） [高分句型2] The journey was filled with new sights and sounds, and Rose gradually found herself fascinated by the unique ecosystem of the Virunga Mountains.（运用了过去分词作宾语补足语） 原创精品资源学科网独家享有版权，侵权必究！15 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ Unit 4 Journey Across a Vast Land 【单元测试 · 提升卷】 (满分：150分　时间：120分钟) 第一部分　听力(共两节，满分30分) 第一节(共5小题；每小题1.5分，满分 7.5分) 听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段对话后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对话仅读一遍。 1．What does the woman think of the new art museum?

Ⅰ.阅读理解(共15小题；每小题2.5分，满分37.5分) A Whether you’re longing for well-being, meditation or a new outlook on life, these are the best British holiday retreats for immersing yourself and refreshing your soul. Put less pressure on yourself and invest in a little me-time. Eco Yoga Argyll, Scotland Anyone wishing to holiday without the carbon footprint should seriously consider retreating to Eco Yoga in the dazzling Scottish countryside. You’ll be interested from the start with numerous yoga choices, receiving guidance on everything from Ashtanga to Yin and Hatha Yoga FitAgain, Dorset Located in picturesque West Dorset, FitAgain is run by a wife and husband duo (搭档) who now focus on nutrition, adventure-filled exercise and motivational speaking to keep their guests’ minds and bodies alert. “We truly care about the people who come to us so we give them as much help as we can after the retreat. We want to continue their goals when they’re back in their normal busy day-to-day lives, using ongoing three-month support through our FitAgain app,” they said. Wild & Free, Cornwall This women-only retreat aims to reconnect you with the earth while you navigate the waves and calm your mind through yoga, all within the stunning scenery of Cornwall’s coastline.

It’s a chance to breathe without interruption, explore new activities without judgement, and wholly focus on oneself before returning to daily life. Arvon Writers’ Retreat, Shropshire Every writer fears the sensation of longing to write, but sitting down to do just that and simply losing inspiration. And, as frustrating as this may be, it’s not always the fault of the writer — what’s really needed is a little encouragement and relaxation. Simplicity is the key with this retreat. Delicious meals are provided and are enjoyed with other writers, luxurious yet understated bedrooms will inspire rather than distract and the workshop and library will give you pockets of inventive vision every time you venture in. 21．Which one is environmentally friendly among the four retreats?

(任何想在度假时不留下碳足迹的人都应该认真考虑一下，到令人眼花缭乱的苏格兰乡村去做生态瑜伽。)”可知，任何人希望无碳足迹度假的人应该认真考虑Eco Yoga Argyll，可知此处是环境友好的。故选A。 22．推理判断题。根据Arvon Writers’ Retreat, Shropshire部分中“And, as frustrating as this may be, it’s not always the fault of the writer — what’s really needed is a little encouragement and relaxation. Simplicity is the key with this retreat. Delicious meals are provided and are enjoyed with other writers, luxurious yet understated bedrooms will inspire rather than distract and the workshop and library will give you pockets of inventive vision every time you venture in.( 而且，尽管这可能令人沮丧，但这并不总是作者的错——真正需要的是一点鼓励和放松。简单是这个静修的关键。这里提供美味的饭菜，你可以和其他作家一起享用，豪华而低调的卧室会激发你的灵感，而不是分散你的注意力，每次你冒险进入工作室和图书馆，都会给你带来创造性的视野。)”可知，这个度假胜地是专门为作家设计的，提供美味的食物、与其他作家一同享用的机会，以及工作室和图书馆等设施，旨在激发作家的创造力和想象力。考虑到这些特点，一个小说家将是最有可能喜欢这个度假胜地的人。故选C。 23．细节理解题。根据第一段中“Whether you’re longing for well-being, meditation or a new outlook on life, these are the best British holiday retreats for immersing yourself and refreshing your soul.( 无论你是渴望幸福、冥想还是一种新的人生观，这些都是最好的英国度假胜地，让你沉浸在其中，让你的灵魂焕然一新。)”可知，这四个度假胜地的共同点是它们都位于英国。故选A。 B Puffins are adorable birds with big, colorful beaks (喙) that live in grassy cliffs in the Far North. One summer day, my husband and I boarded the boat to Flatey Island, eager to catch a glimpse of these charming creatures. As soon as the boat left the harbor, the rain started pouring. The wind picked up, and the boat began to jump. I was beginning to feel seasick. By the time we reached the island, my fingers were blue. The boat wouldn’t go back for four hours. We huddled under the shelter of a warehouse, wondering what to do. Then a woman wearing mittens (手套) came close to us. “You look cold,” she said. “Would you like to come to our house for lunch?” It was a small yellow house at the edge of the village. It was full of people, young and old. They made room for us at the table. We ate and drank a lot, and they told us all about the puffins and the other birds on the island. It was almost time for the boat to leave, our new friend Sigrid walked in the rain with us to the puffins’ cliffs. We sat still on the wet rocks, watching the birds fly right toward us, cocking their heads as if wondering what we were doing on their island. They made us laugh. When the boat whistle blew, Sigrid took my hand to say good-bye. “Your hands are so cold!” Slipping her mittens off, she handed them to me. “You need to have mittens for the boat ride,” she said. It’s been seventeen years, and I still have Sigrid’s mittens. They’re not fancy and bright like the puffin’s beak. But as much as I liked those funny little birds, it’s the mittens I think of when I remembered the island. I’ve spent years trying to be as kind to someone else as Sigrid was to me that day. 24．What was unexpected for the couple at first? A．Remote living place of the puffins. B．The peaceful boat ride. C．Delay in getting on board. D．The cold rainy weather. 25．What does the underlined word “huddled” mean in paragraph 3? A．Walked. B．Crowded. C．Chatted. D．Relaxed. 26．Which word can best describe the couple’s trip on Flatey Island? A．Disappointing. B．Struggling. C．Exciting. D．Heart-warming. 27．What is the best title for the text? A．Puffins and Mittens B．A Close Puffin Watching C．A Magical Trip to Flatey Island D．Surviving a Day with Sigrid 【答案】24．D 25．B 26．D 27．A 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者和丈夫在一个夏日里前往Flatey岛观赏海鹦（一种可爱的鸟类）的经历。在遭遇恶劣天气和身体不适的情况下，他们遇到了一位善良的女子Sigrid对其进行帮助。这些经历让作者深深感受到了人与人之间的温暖和善意。 24．细节理解题。根据第二段中“As soon as the boat left the harbor, the rain started pouring. The wind picked up, and the boat began to jump. I was beginning to feel seasick.(船一离开港口，就下起了倾盆大雨。风起了，船开始颠簸。我开始觉得晕船了。)”可知，当船离开港口时，突然下起了大雨，风也大了起来，船开始颠簸，作者开始感到晕船。这表明最初这对夫妇没有预料到会遇到如此寒冷的雨天。故选D。 25．词义猜测题。根据第三段中划线词前面的句子“By the time we reached the island, my fingers were blue. The boat wouldn’t go back for four hours.(当我们到达小岛时，我的手指都发青了。这艘船要四个小时才能返航。)”以及后文“Then a woman wearing mittens(手套) came close to us. “You look cold,” she said. (然后一个戴着手套的女人走近我们。“你看起来很冷，”她说。)”可知，当作者和丈夫到达岛屿时，手指都冻青了，船还需要四个小时后才会返回。因此，他们在仓库的庇护下挤成一团（缩在一起抵御寒冷），想知道接下来该做什么。故划线词与B选项“Crowded.(拥挤的)”为同义词。故选B。 26．推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“When the boat whistle blew, Sigrid took my hand to say good-bye. “Your hands are so cold!” Slipping her mittens off, she handed them to me. “You need to have mittens for the boat ride,” she said.( 船鸣笛时，Sigrid拉着我的手说再见。“你的手好冷啊!”她脱下手套，递给我。“乘船时你需要戴上连指手套，”她说。)”以及最后一段中“It’s been seventeen years, and I still have Sigrid’s mittens. They’re not fancy and bright like the puffin’s beak. But as much as I liked those funny little birds, it’s the mittens I think of when I remembered the island. I’ve spent years trying to be as kind to someone else as Sigrid was to me that day.( 十七年过去了，我还留着Sigrid的连指手套。它们不像海雀的嘴那样华丽明亮。尽管我很喜欢那些有趣的小鸟，但当我想起那个岛时，我想到的却是那副连指手套。多年来，我一直努力像西格丽德那天对我那样善待别人。)”可知，尽管这对夫妇最初遇到了不利的天气条件和困难，但他们遇到了善良的Sigrid，她的热情和善良给他们的旅程带来了温暖。特别是她把手套送给作者以抵御船上的寒冷，这一行为让作者印象深刻，并让她在之后的岁月里努力向别人展现同样的善良。因此，这次旅行可以被描述为“暖心的”。故选D。 27．主旨大意题。通读全文，文章主要讲述了作者和丈夫在前往Flatey岛观看海鹦的过程中遇到了一位善良的女子Sigrid，并讲述了她把手套送给作者以抵御船上的寒冷的温暖故事，这一温暖的行为让作者印象深刻，并让她在之后的岁月里努力向别人展现同样的善良。因此，选项A“Puffins and Mittens(海鹦和手套)”既包含了文章的主题元素——海鹦，也反映了文章的核心情感——手套所代表的善良和温暖，因此是最佳标题。故选A。 C River surfing was inspired by ocean surfing, but its popularity is growing all on its own. Traditional surfing began more than 3,000 years ago in Western Polynesia. First making its way to Hawaii, the sport has since spread across the globe, leaving in its wake wave — chasers from all corners of the planet — even land-locked places. Some surfers hungry for waves but without coastlines have turned to river surfing, which delivers a similar experience in ocean-less conditions. In 1970’s Munich, a small group of adventurous surfers took to the Eisbach River near Englischer Garten Park. Holding tight to two ropes attached to a bridge, they balanced on wooden planks (厚木板) in the river to imitate the ocean surfing they had experienced abroad. This is the moment many river surfers believe the sport was born. River waves are formed either by water flowing quickly downstream over a drop in sea level, creating standing waves, or by tidal bores (涌潮), which occur where rivers meet the sea. The speed of the water controls the energy of a wave, while the length of the drop decides its size. Because the thickness of a wave also matters (surf fails if there’s just a few inches of water), the size of the river channel is also important. Rideable waves can occur with slow flow and small drop conditions if the river channel is narrow enough to create a thick wave, and the opposite is true for wide channels. Because flow can change from day to day and season to season, thanks to a previous winter’s snowfall or other natural phenomena, even an expert has to be at the right spot on the right day to discover a surfable river wave. There are a handful river waves across the U. S. that are particularly worth checking out. Don’t forget your personal equipment and, for rocky or debris-filled (充满杂物的) rivers, a helmet. 28．Which description of river surfing is true from the passage? A．It first occurred in Hawaii. B．It has lasted for more than 3,000 years. C．It actually is a replacement for ocean surfing. D．It has become more popular than traditional surfing. 29．Where is river surfing considered to be created? A．In the Eisbach River. B．In Western Polynesia. C．In Littleton, Colorado. D．In Englischer Garten Park. 30．Which is correct about the river channel? A．It affects tidal bores. B．Its size decides the thickness of waves. C．Narrow river channels create slow river flow. D．Wide river channels contribute to rapid and thick waves. 31．What’s the purpose of the last sentence? A．To note that river surfing is actually fascinating. B．To showcase the difficulty finding a perfect wave. C．To express the necessity of professional equipment. D．To stress the importance of safety when river surfing. 【答案】28．C 29．A 30．B 31．D 【导语】这是一篇说明文。本文介绍了正在流行起来的河流冲浪。 28．推理判断题。根据第一段中的“some surfers hungry for waves but without coastlines have turned to river surfing, which delivers a similar experience in ocean-less conditions(一些渴望海浪但没有海岸线的冲浪者转向了河上冲浪，这在没有海洋的条件下也能提供类似的体验)”可知，一些冲浪者渴望海浪但是却没身处海岸，于是他们转向河流冲浪。河流冲浪能在没有海的条件下带来海上冲浪相似的体验。由此可推知，河流冲浪实际上是海洋冲浪的替代品。故选C项。 29．细节理解题。根据第二段中的“In 1970’s Munich, a small group of adventurous surfers took to the Eisbach River near Englischer Garten Park... This is the moment many river surfers believe the sport was born.(20世纪70年代的慕尼黑，一小群富有冒险精神的冲浪者来到了恩格利舍加滕公园附近的艾斯巴赫河……这是许多河上冲浪者相信这项运动诞生的时刻。)”可知，河流冲浪被认为诞生在Eisbach River。故选A项。 30．推理判断题。根据第三段中的“ Rideable waves can occur with slow flow and small drop conditions if the river channel is narrow enough to create a thick wave, and the opposite is true for wide channels.(如果河道狭窄到足以形成厚波，则在水流缓慢和落差较小的情况下可能会出现可驾驭的波浪，而宽河道则相反。)”可知，如果河道足够窄到可以制造厚的波浪，河道宽则反之。因此，河道可以决定波浪的厚度，从而影响河流冲浪。故选B项。 31．推理判断题。根据文章最后一句话中的“Don’t forget your personal equipment and, for rocky or debris-filled（充满杂物的） rivers, a helmet.(不要忘记你的个人装备，对于布满岩石或碎片的河流，也不要忘记头盔。)”可知，不要忘了带上自己的装备，为了应对岩石较多或者充满杂物的河流，戴上一顶头盔。本句是在提醒河流冲浪者带好装备以应对较危险的环境。由此可推知，本句意在强调河流冲浪时安全的重要性。故选D项。 D Mia, a pre-adolescent of twelve years, is currently embarking on an annual peregrination with her progenitors and trio of juvenile siblings, distant from their domicile in Quebec, Canada. The familial unit has partaken in equine excursions through the Mongolian steppes, navigated waterways in Cambodia via kayak, sojourned amidst the Namibian wilderness, and soared above the Turkish landscape in a hot air balloon, all in pursuit of a repository of experiences that may occur but once in their existence. These reminiscences hold profound significance as, barring a scientific marvel in the near term, the progeny are destined to succumb to blindness in their maturation. They have been afflicted with a malady that lacks efficacious intervention and possesses an indeterminate schedule, progressively depriving them of the faculty of vision. The revelations of their conditions emerged in 2015. In the face of sorrow, the parents were struck by Mia’s composure at the tender age of seven. She proclaimed the necessity to cultivate an environment of order within her chamber, ensuring that every object held its rightful place. “I shall require prescience of the location of all articles,” Mia articulated. “She is autonomously devising remedies,” the parents remarked to one another. “We must adhere to her guidance.” Consequently, the concept of a yearlong expedition was conceived, one designed to expose the offspring to the panorama of the globe, in a manner both direct and intimate — whilst their visual faculties remained intact. For the subsequent biennium, the progenitors have amassed financial resources and investigated prospective destinations. “The disparity in the perspectival apprehension of the world by adults and children is vast,” the matriarch, Edith, remarked. “Our journey must eschew a focus on religious monuments and institutions of learning, instead gravitating towards whatever captures their gaze.” As the odyssey commenced its conclusion in the nascent stages of 2023, the family had traversed 52,000 miles and traversed eighteen nations. Mia, elongated in stature and on the cusp of adolescence, sought greater autonomy. Her confreres in youth were transformed, exuding an enhanced air of assurance and sociability. The progeny were acutely conscious of the wealth of knowledge they had amassed. “Existence is replete with affliction and destitution, yet it is also abundant in virtue and intriguing phenomena. We ought to maintain a positive stance,” Mia pronounced. 32．What’s the probable function of the first paragraph? A．To lead in the story behind. B．To arouse the readers’ interest. C．To provide background information. D．To inform readers of a wonderful trip. 33．What can be inferred about the parents from paragraph 3 and 4? A．They are optimistic about the children’s disease. B．They are surprised at their daughter’s creative ideas. C．They are proud of their daughter’s courage to face difficulties. D．They are open-minded enough to respect their children’s decision. 34．What is the last paragraph mainly about? A．The details about the year-long journey. B．The keen anticipation of Mia about the future. C．The changes of the kids physically and mentally. D．The impression Mia had of what she had experienced. 35．Which is the best title of the story? A．Seeing is believing. B．Making the most of the vision. C．Man who travels far knows more. D．The eyes are the window to the soul. 【答案】32．B 33．D 34．C 35．B 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了一个家庭中的孩子们因为患有会逐渐失去视力的疾病，而决定在他们还能看见的时候尽可能多地体验世界。他们进行了为期一年的全球旅行，希望能够在视力还完好时积累更多的经历和记忆。 32．推理判断题。根据文章第一段“Mia, a pre-adolescent of twelve years, is currently embarking on an annual peregrination with her progenitors and trio of juvenile siblings, distant from their domicile in Quebec, Canada. The familial unit has partaken in equine excursions through the Mongolian steppes, navigated waterways in Cambodia via kayak, sojourned amidst the Namibian wilderness, and soared above the Turkish landscape in a hot air balloon, all in pursuit of a repository of experiences that may occur but once in their existence.(米娅，一个12岁的青春期前女孩，目前正与她的祖先和三个年幼的兄弟姐妹一起，远离他们在加拿大魁北克的住所，开始一年一度的旅行。这个家族成员骑着马在蒙古大草原上远足，乘坐皮划艇在柬埔寨的水道上航行，在纳米比亚的荒野中逗留，乘坐热气球飞越土耳其的风景，所有这些都是为了追求一种可能在他们的存在中只出现一次的经历。)”可知，第一段描述了Mia和她的家庭正在进行的一次年度旅行以及他们所参与过的各种冒险活动，并指出这些经历在他们的生命中可能只会出现一次；由此可知，第一段的功能为了引起读者的兴趣，想要知道为什么这些经历在他们的生命中可能只会出现一次。故选B。 33．推理判断题。根据文章第三段“In the face of sorrow, the parents were struck by Mia’s composure at the tender age of seven. She proclaimed the necessity to cultivate an environment of order within her chamber, ensuring that every object held its rightful place.(面对悲伤，父母被米娅在7岁时的镇定所打动。她宣布有必要在她的房间里营造一个有序的环境，确保每件物品都有其应有的位置。)”和文章第四段““She is autonomously devising remedies,” the parents remarked to one another. “We must adhere to her guidance.” Consequently, the concept of a yearlong expedition was conceived, one designed to expose the offspring to the panorama of the globe, in a manner both direct and intimate – whilst their visual faculties remained intact. For the subsequent biennium, the progenitors have amassed financial resources and investigated prospective destinations. (‘她是自主地想出解决办法的，’父母们相互说道，‘我们必须遵循她的指导。’因此，他们构想了为期一年的探险旅行的概念，旨在以直接而亲密的方式让子女们领略全球的风光，同时他们的视觉功能依然完好。在接下来的两年里，父母们积累了资金，并调查了潜在的目的地。)”可知，父母对Mia的自主性和创造性表示了赞赏，尊重女儿的决定，并遵循她的指导，构想进行为期一年的探险旅行。这表明父母非常开明，尊重孩子决定。故选D。 34．主旨大意题。根据文章最后一段“As the odyssey commenced its conclusion in the nascent stages of 2023, the family had traversed 52,000 miles and traversed eighteen nations. Mia, elongated in stature and on the cusp of adolescence, sought greater autonomy. Her confreres in youth were transformed, exuding an enhanced air of assurance and sociability. The progeny were acutely conscious of the wealth of knowledge they had amassed. “Existence is replete with affliction and destitution, yet it is also abundant in virtue and intriguing phenomena. We ought to maintain a positive stance,” Mia pronounced.(随着这次漫长旅程在2023年初见端倪的阶段接近尾声，这个家庭已经跨越了52,000英里，游历了十八个国家。米娅，身材高挑，正值青春期的门槛，渴望更多的自主权。她的年轻同伴们也发生了蜕变，散发出更加自信和社交的气息。这些后代们深刻地意识到自己所积累的知识财富。‘生活中充满了苦难和贫困，但也充满了美德和有趣的现象。我们应该保持积极的态度，’米娅说道。)”可知，文章最后一段主要描写了孩子们在旅行过程中身心的变化，他们的身高增长，性格变得更加独立和自信。故选C。 35．主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其根据文章第一段“Mia, a pre-adolescent of twelve years, is currently embarking on an annual peregrination with her progenitors and trio of juvenile siblings, distant from their domicile in Quebec, Canada. The familial unit has partaken in equine excursions through the Mongolian steppes, navigated waterways in Cambodia via kayak, sojourned amidst the Namibian wilderness, and soared above the Turkish landscape in a hot air balloon, all in pursuit of a repository of experiences that may occur but once in their existence.(米娅，一个12岁的青春期前女孩，目前正与她的祖先和三个年幼的兄弟姐妹一起，远离他们在加拿大魁北克的住所，开始一年一度的旅行。这个家族成员骑着马在蒙古大草原上远足，乘坐皮划艇在柬埔寨的水道上航行，在纳米比亚的荒野中逗留，乘坐热气球飞越土耳其的风景，所有这些都是为了追求一种可能在他们的存在中只出现一次的经历。)”以及第二段中“They have been afflicted with a malady that lacks efficacious intervention and possesses an indeterminate schedule, progressively depriving them of the faculty of vision.(他们患有一种疾病，缺乏有效的治疗方法，而且时间表不确定，逐渐剥夺了他们的视力。)”可知，文章主要讲述了一个家庭中的孩子们因为患有会逐渐失去视力的疾病，而决定在他们还能看见的时候尽可能多地体验世界。他们进行了为期一年的全球旅行，希望能够在视力还完好时积累更多的经历和记忆。因此，这个故事的主题是“充分利用视力”，即尽可能地利用自己还拥有的视力去体验世界，故B选项“Making the most of the vision”最符合文章主旨，为最佳标题。故选B。 Ⅱ.阅读七选五(共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) While traveling, it’s important to do it in a way that preserves these natural attractions for the next generation to enjoy as well. It’s always a good idea to travel in an environmentally friendly way. 36 The following are some tips for eco-friendly travel. Look for a green label (标签) The demand for eco-friendly travel has resulted in a sharp increase of environmentally friendly labels used by businesses, hotels, and products in the travel industry. 37 There are a few ways to do the research and find out which labels are really environmentally friendly. One choice is to look at the online guides that go through the details of several common labels. Ask questions 38 Wise travelers can research, ask, or talk to travel companies. This will discover the problems behind the label. Research is absolutely important because there’s a lot of smoke and mirrors in this business. You wouldn’t just buy a car from an ad without understanding what it was or comparing it to others. Fly less and fly direct When you fly, make it count. Use long-distance flights when necessary. But change to more eco-friendly choices for more local destinations. 39 By traveling over land, one can cut carbon emissions (碳排放) by as much as 50 percent or 80 percent. Stay local and buy local Another way to cut down on flights is to get in touch with the local community. 40 And it can help travelers really understand how life works in that community. Staying local can cut down on travel emissions, and joining in the local community can also reduce a tourist’s cultural and environmental impact. A．Some destinations have overnight trains. B．However, not all these labels are really honest. C．That lets one both tour nature and protect nature. D．It is recommended that travelers stay in one location longer. E．Promoting the local economy can actually have green benefits. F．Trains and buses produce much less carbon emissions than airplanes do. G．Although some companies have green labels, we don’t quite know for sure. 【答案】36．C 37．B 38．G 39．F 40．D 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章作者围绕“环保旅游”这一主题，给出了几个建议或方法，旨在帮助读者以更环保的方式旅行，以保护自然环境供后代人继续欣赏。 36．根据上文内容“While traveling, it’s important to do it in a way that preserves these natural attractions for the next generation to enjoy as well. It’s always a good idea to travel in an environmentally friendly way.(在旅行时，重要的是要以一种保护这些自然景点的方式，让下一代也能享受。以环保的方式旅行总是一个好主意)”可知，上文提出环保的旅游方式。选项C“That lets one both tour nature and protect nature.(这样既可以游览自然又可以保护自然。)”指出，环保的旅游方式既可以游览自然又可以保护自然。故选C。 37．根据空后的“There are a few ways to do the research and find out which labels are really environmentally friendly.(有几种方法可以做研究，找出哪些标签是真正环保的)”可推测，并不是所有的标签是真正环保的。选项B“However, not all these labels are really honest.(然而，并不是所有的标签都是诚实的。)”与下文内容相符，指出并不是所有的标签都是诚实的，所以我们需要做研究，从而找出真正环保的标签。故选B。 38．根下文内容“Wise travelers can research, ask, or talk to travel companies. This will discover the problems behind the label.
