71-year-old, Helen Lloyd Jones from Cardiff recently completed her first marathon and is encouraging others of her age to take up the challenge. “Do it. We only live once,” she said after the event.
Helen took up running in her 50’s while working as a teacher. After jogging alongside one of her students during a sports day race, Helen said, “I felt terrible, absolutely terrible. It was a wakeup call and I started to practise jogging.”
Helen started attending her local parkrun, but decided she needed a bigger challenge to keep her motivated. Once the idea of running 26.2 came into her head, she was decided, and set her sights on running a larger race, using the support of the crowds to get her round.
Helen didn’t tell her husband for the first five months of her training as she knew he’d be worried about the toll the distance might have on her, saying afterwards, “The difference between the man who waved me goodbye and the smiling man who greeted me when I returned was a reflection of how much he had been worrying. But he is very proud of me.”
At 71, Helen explains how she didn’t do her training “by the book”. After trying to do a long run, a speed run and a hill run each week, she soon found her body was not able to recover fast enough between sessions. Instead, she chose one long run a week with her local running club Pegasus and friend Sally, so she could feel confident with the distance.
A proud grandmother, Helen is now taking her grandchildren to parkruns and junior parkruns. She hopes that they will remember running with their grandmother when they grow up. Are there more marathons in her future? “I said I would only do the one, but have a feeling that if I got a place in London or New York... I might change my mind.”
4. Why did Helen start to practise jogging?
A. To improve her health. B. To take up the challenge.
C. To win the respect of her students. D. To set an example to her students.
5. Why didn’t Helen tell her husband about her training for marathon?
A. She wanted to surprise her husband.
B. She wanted to avoid her husband’s quarrel.
C She was afraid that her husband would be concerned.
D. She didn’t wish her husband to understand the hardships.
6. What was as probably Helen’s future plan?
A. To run more marathons nonstop.
B. To accompany grandchildren every day.
C. To run marathons with her grandchildren.
D. To continue to run marathons if she can make race rankings.
7. Which of the following can best describe Helen?
A. Kind and helpful. B. Athletic and determined.
C. Generous and strict. D. Traditional and patient.
C
For Adam Johnson, a potter from Brighton, the interest stirs (萌动) each spring. “It grabs a hold of me,” he said. “I just get the desire to dig.” Together with his shovel (铲), he is part of a larger movement. Around the world people are discovering the joys of an ancient practice: the digging of holes. TikTok videos of people digging purely for fun have been viewed millions of times. Instagram accounts devoted to the pastime have many followings.
Charlie Mone, a student at St Andrews University, was changed while digging on the beach in Gran Canaria last year. When he returned home, he founded the university’s first hole-digging society. “I didn’t think it would go anywhere,” he said. Dozens of diggers regularly attend its events on East Sands Beach on the east coast of Scotland and the society’s Facebook page has more than 300 followers.
Mone believes that that much of the appeal lies in the friendship working on a shared project in the sea air. “It’s struck a chord (共鸣) with people,” he said. “There’s something therapeutic to just switching your brain off and digging a hole.” At the end of each 1 session, the holes are filled in to prevent accidents.
Back in Brighton, Johnson, 38, is more of a lonely digger. “I have often started digging without an actual plan,” he said. “Once I took out an unruly bramble (荆棘) and found some rock so I dug that out, then carried on a bit until I was in a good general digging rhythm. A few hours later my partner asked if I was coming in for dinner-the bramble had come out at breakfast and I found myself in a six-foot hole. The hole would become a sunken hot tub, but the digging would have been worthwhile anyway, he suggests. “There’s something basic about it. And you find all kinds of buried treasure from people who had the garden before you. There’s something magical about digging.”
8. What was Charlie Mone’s response when he founded hole-digging society?
A. He was curious about its future. B. He didn’t expect it to be successful.
C. He believed it would become popular. D. He was confident that it would set a new trend.
9. What does the underlined word “therapeutic” in Paragraph 33probably mean?
A. Relaxing. B. Different. C. Strange. D. Harmonious.
10. What does Adam Johnson think of digging?
A. Tiring. B. Boring. C. Challenging. D. Rewarding.
11. What’s the best title for the text?
A. Digging Is Interesting and Magical B. An Ancient Practice Has Many Benefits
C. Dig Deep to Unearth an Unusual New Hobby D. Different People Have Different Attitudes to Digging
D
If there was one good thing to come out of lockdowns, it was improve book sales and rates of reading, especially among children. A survey of 70,000 children and young people by the National Literacy Trust, however, has found this gain is now gone: figures are now equal to just before the pandemic (疫情), when the trust recorded the lowest levels of reading enjoyment (just under 50%) since it first asked the question 17 years ago. Another study of 8,000 five-to eight-year-olds at the same time found that nearly one in five did not have a book at home.
These questions are not about basic literacy (读写能力) but about the habit of reading: the children surveyed spoke of books giving them subjects to talk about; of entertainment and information; of reading helping them to understand people unlike themselves; of finding in books a place of escape; of aid in dealing with difficulty. “It helps me in learning about what I’m feeling. That .That is because I have a hard time expressing my emotions and would rather not bother anyone” as one child put it.
Children who read at home are six times more likely to be able to read above expected levels, while one study of 160,000 adults from 31 countries found children whose homes held least 80 books, books, but whose schooling ended at 13 or 14, were as literate, numerate and technologically intelligent in adulthood as university graduates who grew up with only a few books. Another found these children also went on to earn more.
It is not that most parents and carers don’t understand this. A reason often cited for the lack of books at home is the cost of living. Almost a fifth of Britain’s public libraries have closed in 10 years, while one in eight primary schools in England, rising to one in four in disadvantaged communities, do not have a s, do not have a library or designated (指定的) reading space. Compared with other problems this country faces, providing varied reading materials relatively straightforward to fix. We owe it to children to do so.
12. What’s the main idea of Paragraph 2?
A. The benefits of reading to children. B. The reading habit of children.
C. How to be an effective reader. D. What to read to better oneself.
13. What can we infer from Paragraph 3?
A. Children whose homes held at least 80 books are more literate.
B. Children whose schooling ended at 13 or 14 are likely to earn more.
C. Children who read more at an early age have a deep effect on themselves.
D. Children who read at home have a higher chance of getting into university.
14. What’s the author’s advice according to the last paragraph?
A. Opening more public libraries. B. Reducing the cost of living for most families.
C. Encouraging parents to buy more books at home. D. Providing different reading materials to children.
15. In which section of a newspaper may this text appear?
A. Travel. B. Education. C. Science. D. Health.

47. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Honey is my dog. She always follows me like a shadow. She often accompanies me to visit neighbours.
That October morning last year, I year, I decided to take Honey with me while I'll ran some errands (办事). I opened the door of my car. “Come on, Honey. Let’s go.” She jumpe into the SUV and settled down on the passenger seat. I got behind the wheel and started the SUV.
It’s always difficult turning around. We live in a remote area up in the hills outside San Rafael, California, surrounded by towering redwoods. You have to drive up the mountain to get to our driveway.
I moved around and backed up slowly. Suddenly, I felt a shake as the left back section of the SUV dropped. Oh, no! The edge! The car slipped in the soft soil, and rolled. I hadn’t put on my seat belt yet; I was waiting to finish turning around. Now I fell inside the SUV as it somersaulted (翻滚) down the valley. Branches broke. The car rolled faster. Four, five, six rolls until I heard a horrible noise. A large branch plunged (插入) through the roof, and then hit my leg and chest. We landed upside down. I felt a sharp pain in my chest. I was pinned (钉住). I looked over to find Honey. She was still in the passenger seat and, thank goodness, she was okay.
“Sorry, girl,” I said. I tried to see if I could unpin myself from behind the wheel. It was no use. Something was wrong with my leg. I grabbed my cell phone and called 911. But I couldn’t get a signal at the bottom of that valley.
I figured we were at least t 50 feet down. Robin, my closest neighbour, lived a quarter mile uphill from me, and had her own driveway. There was no reason she or anyone else would drive up to my house.
At least I could get Honey out of there.1There was a hole in the driver’s side window. Painfully, I reached over and picked her up. I gently put her head through the hole.
“Go home, baby.”
注意:
1.续写词数应为150左右;
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
I sat there for hours until I heard a noise.
_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
After I got all sorts of tests, Robin told me what had happened.

71-year-old, Helen Lloyd Jones from Cardiff recently completed her first marathon and is encouraging others of her age to take up the challenge. “Do it. We only live once,” she said after the event.
Helen took up running in her 50’s while working as a teacher. After jogging alongside one of her students during a sports day race, Helen said, “I felt terrible, absolutely terrible. It was a wakeup call and I started to practise jogging.”
Helen started attending her local parkrun, but decided she needed a bigger challenge to keep her motivated. Once the idea of running 26.2 came into her head, she was decided, and set her sights on running a larger race, using the support of the crowds to get her round.
Helen didn’t tell her husband for the first five months of her training as she knew he’d be worried about the toll the distance might have on her, saying afterwards, “The difference between the man who waved me goodbye and the smiling man who greeted me when I returned was a reflection of how much he had been worrying. But he is very proud of me.”
At 71, Helen explains how she didn’t do her training “by the book”. After trying to do a long run, a speed run and a hill run each week, she soon found her body was not able to recover fast enough between sessions. Instead, she chose one long run a week with her local running club Pegasus and friend Sally, so she could feel confident with the distance.
A proud grandmother, Helen is now taking her grandchildren to parkruns and junior parkruns. She hopes that they will remember running with their grandmother when they grow up. Are there more marathons in her future? “I said I would only do the one, but have a feeling that if I got a place in London or New York... I might change my mind.”
4. Why did Helen start to practise jogging?
A. To improve her health. B. To take up the challenge.
C. To win the respect of her students. D. To set an example to her students.
5. Why didn’t Helen tell her husband about her training for marathon?
A. She wanted to surprise her husband.
B. She wanted to avoid her husband’s quarrel.
C. She was afraid that her husband would be concerned.
D. She didn’t wish her husband to understand the hardships.
6. What was as probably Helen’s future plan?
A. To run more marathons nonstop.
B. To accompany grandchildren every day.
C. To run marathons with her grandchildren.
D. To continue to run marathons if she can make race rankings.
7. Which of the following can best describe Helen?
A Kind and helpful. B. Athletic and determined.
C. Generous and strict. D. Traditional and patient.
【答案】4. A 5. C 6. D 7. B

For Adam Johnson, a potter from Brighton, the interest stirs (萌动) each spring. “It grabs a hold of me,” he said. “I just get the desire to dig.” Together with his shovel (铲), he is part of a larger movement. Around the world people are discovering the joys of an ancient practice: the digging of holes. TikTok videos of people digging purely for fun have been viewed millions of times. Instagram accounts devoted to the pastime have many followings.
Charlie Mone, a student at St Andrews University, was changed while digging on the beach in Gran Canaria last year. When he returned home, he founded the university’s first hole-digging society. “I didn’t think it would go anywhere,” he said. Dozens of diggers regularly attend its events on East Sands Beach on the east coast of Scotland and the society’s Facebook page has more than 300 followers.
Mone believes that that much of the appeal lies in the friendship working on a shared project in the sea air. “It’s struck a chord (共鸣) with people,” he said. “There’s something therapeutic to just switching your brain off and digging a hole.” At the end of each 1 session, the holes are filled in to prevent accidents.
Back in Brighton, Johnson, 38, is more of a lonely digger. “I have often started digging without an actual plan,” he said. “Once I took out an unruly bramble (荆棘) and found some rock so I dug that out, then carried on a bit until I was in a good general digging rhythm. A few hours later my partner asked if I was coming in for dinner-the bramble had come out at breakfast and I found myself in a six-foot hole. The hole would become a sunken hot tub, but the digging would have been worthwhile anyway, he suggests. “There’s something basic about it. And you find all kinds of buried treasure from people who had the garden before you. There’s something magical about digging.”
8. What was Charlie Mone’s response when he founded hole-digging society?
A. He was curious about its future. B. He didn’t expect it to be successful.
C. He believed it would become popular. D. He was confident that it would set a new trend.
9. What does the underlined word “therapeutic” in Paragraph 33probably mean?
A. Relaxing. B. Different. C. Strange. D. Harmonious.
10. What does Adam Johnson think of digging?
A. Tiring. B. Boring. C. Challenging. D. Rewarding.
11. What’s the best title for the text?
A. Digging Is Interesting and Magical B. An Ancient Practice Has Many Benefits
C. Dig Deep to Unearth an Unusual New Hobby D. Different People Have Different Attitudes to Digging
【答案】8. B 9. A 10. D 11. C
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了挖洞正在成为一种新的爱好,介绍了有关组织和人们对此的看法。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段““I didn’t think it would go anywhere,” he said.(“我不认为它会有什么结果,”他说)”可知,当查理·莫尼创立挖洞协会时,他没料到会成功。故选B。
【9题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第一段“TikTok videos of people digging purely for fun have been viewed millions of times. Instagram accounts devoted to the pastime have many followings.(人们纯粹为了好玩而挖掘的TikTok视频已经被观看了数百万次。专门用于消遣的Instagram账号有很多粉丝)”以及划线词上文“It’s struck a chord (共鸣) with people(它引起了人们的共鸣)”可知,人们挖洞是出于娱乐,即挖洞会让人放松。故划线词意思是“令人放松的”。故选A。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“The hole would become a sunken hot tub, but the digging would have been worthwhile anyway, he suggests.(他认为,这个洞会变成一个沉没的热水浴池,但无论如何挖掘都是值得的)”可知,亚当·约翰逊认为挖掘是值得的。故选D。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段“Around the world people are discovering the joys of an ancient practice: the digging of holes. TikTok videos of people digging purely for fun have been viewed millions of times. Instagram accounts devoted to the pastime have many followings.(世界各地的人们正在发现一种古老习俗的乐趣:挖洞。人们纯粹为了好玩而挖掘的TikTok视频已经被观看了数百万次。专门用于消遣的Instagram账号有很多粉丝)”结合文章主要介绍了挖洞正在成为一种新的爱好,介绍了有关组织和人们对此的看法。可知,C选项“深入挖掘成为一个不寻常的新爱好”最符合文章标题。故选C。

If there was one good thing to come out of lockdowns, it was improve book sales and rates of reading, especially among children. A survey of 70,000 children and young people by the National Literacy Trust, however, has found this gain is now gone: figures are now equal to just before the pandemic (疫情), when the trust recorded the lowest levels of reading enjoyment (just under 50%) since it first asked the question 17 years ago. Another study of 8,000 five-to eight-year-olds at the same time found that nearly one in five did not have a book at home.
These questions are not about basic literacy (读写能力) but about the habit of reading: the children surveyed spoke of books giving them subjects to talk about; of entertainment and information; of reading helping them to understand people unlike themselves; of finding in books a place of escape; of aid in dealing with difficulty. “It helps me in learning about what I’m feeling. That .That is because I have a hard time expressing my emotions and would rather not bother anyone,” as one child put it.
Children who read at home are six times more likely to be able to read above expected levels, while one study of 160,000 adults from 31 countries found children whose homes held least 80 books, books, but whose schooling ended at 13 or 14, were as literate, numerate and technologically intelligent in adulthood as university graduates who grew up with only a few books. Another found these children also went on to earn more.
It is not that most parents and carers don’t understand this. A reason often cited for the lack of books at home is the cost of living. Almost a fifth of Britain’s public libraries have closed in 10 years, while one in eight primary schools in England, rising to one in four in disadvantaged communities, do not have a s, do not have a library or designated (指定的) reading space. Compared with other problems this country faces, providing varied reading materials relatively straightforward to fix. We owe it to children to do so.
12. What’s the main idea of Paragraph 2?
A. The benefits of reading to children. B. The reading habit of children.
C. How to be an effective reader. D. What to read to better oneself.
13. What can we infer from Paragraph 3?
A. Children whose homes held at least 80 books are more literate.
B. Children whose schooling ended at 13 or 14 are likely to earn more.
C. Children who read more at an early age have a deep effect on themselves.
D Children who read at home have a higher chance of getting into university.
14. What’s the author’s advice according to the last paragraph?
A. Opening more public libraries. B. Reducing the cost of living for most families.
C. Encouraging parents to buy more books at home. D. Providing different reading materials to children.
15. In which section of a newspaper may this text appear?
A. Travel. B. Education. C. Science. D. Health.
【答案】12. A 13. C 14. D 15. B
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了疫情封锁的一个好处是,提高儿童的阅读率,然而,国家扫盲信托基金会对7万名儿童和青少年进行的一项调查发现,儿童阅读率已经下降,恢复到疫情以前的水平了。文章分析了其原因及提出解决办法。
【12题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第二段“These questions are not about basic literacy (读写能力) but about the habit of reading: the children surveyed spoke of books giving them subjects to talk about; of entertainment and information; of reading helping them to understand people unlike themselves; of finding in books a place of escape; of aid in dealing with difficulty. “It helps me in learning about what I’m feeling. That .That is because I have a hard time expressing my emotions and would rather not bother anyone,” as one child put it.(这些问题不是关于基本的读写能力,而是关于阅读的习惯:接受调查的孩子们说,书给了他们谈论的话题;娱乐和信息;阅读帮助他们了解与自己不同的人;在书中找到一个逃避的地方;帮助解决困难的。“它帮助我了解自己的感受。那是因为我很难表达自己的情绪,不想打扰任何人,”一个孩子说)”可知,第二段的主旨是阅读对孩子的好处。故选A。
【13题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“Children who read at home are six times more likely to be able to read above expected levels, while one study of 160,000 adults from 31 countries found children whose homes held least 80 books, books, but whose schooling ended at 13 or 14, were as literate, numerate and technologically intelligent in adulthood as university graduates who grew up with only a few books. Another found these children also went on to earn more.(在家里读书的孩子,其阅读能力超过预期水平的可能性要高出六倍。一项对来自31个国家的16万名成年人进行的研究发现,那些家里至少有80本书籍,但在13岁或14岁就结束学校教育的孩子,成年后的读写、计算和技术智力与那些在很少书的环境中长大的大学毕业生一样。另一项研究发现,这些孩子也会赚的更多)”可知,从小多读书的孩子对他们自己有深远的影响。故选C。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段“Compared with other problems this country faces, providing varied reading materials relatively straightforward to fix. We owe it to children to do so.(与这个国家面临的其他问题相比,提供多样化的阅读材料相对容易解决。为了孩子们,我们应该这样做)”可知,作者的建议是为孩子们提供不同的阅读材料。故选D。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段“If there was one good thing to come out of lockdowns, it was improve book sales and rates of reading, especially among children.(如果说封锁有什么好处的话,那就是提高了图书销量和阅读率,尤其是儿童的阅读率)”结合文章主要说明了疫情封锁的一个好处是,提高儿童的阅读率,然而,国家扫盲信托基金会对7万名儿童和青少年进行的一项调查发现,儿童阅读率已经下降,恢复到疫情以前的水平了。文章分析了其原因及提出解决办法。可知,文章选自报纸的“教育”版面。故选B。

第二节(满分25分)
47. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Honey is my dog. She always follows me like a shadow. She often accompanies me to visit neighbours.
That October morning last year, I year, I decided to take Honey with me while I'll ran some errands (办事). I opened the door of my car. “Come on, Honey. Let’s go.” She jumpe into the SUV and settled down on the passenger seat. I got behind the wheel and started the SUV.
It’s always difficult turning around. We live in a remote area up in the hills outside San Rafael, California, surrounded by towering redwoods. You have to drive up the mountain to get to our driveway.
I moved around and backed up slowly. Suddenly, I felt a shake as the left back section of the SUV dropped. Oh, no! The edge! The car slipped in the soft soil, and rolled. I hadn’t put on my seat belt yet; I was waiting to finish turning around. Now I fell inside the SUV as it somersaulted (翻滚) down the valley. Branches broke. The car rolled faster. Four, five, six rolls until I heard a horrible noise. A large branch plunged (插入) through the roof, and then hit my leg and chest. We landed upside down. I felt a sharp pain in my chest. I was pinned (钉住). I looked over to find Honey. She was still in the passenger seat and, thank goodness, she was okay.
“Sorry, girl,” I said. I tried to see if I could unpin myself from behind the wheel. It was no use. Something was wrong with my leg. I grabbed my cell phone and called 911. But I couldn’t get a signal at the bottom of that valley.
I figured we were at least t 50 feet down. Robin, my closest neighbour, lived a quarter mile uphill from me, and had her own driveway. There was no reason she or anyone else would drive up to my house.
At least I could get Honey out of there.1There was a hole in the driver’s side window. Painfully, I reached over and picked her up. I gently put her head through the hole.
“Go home, baby.”
注意:
1.续写词数应为150左右;
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
I sat there for hours until I heard a noise.
_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
After I got all sorts of tests, Robin told me what had happened.
_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】I sat there for hours until I heard a noise. I looked up, hoping it was someone coming to rescue us. To my relief, it was Honey! She was barking loudly and running around the SUV. A moment later, I heard footsteps and voices. Robin and some rescue workers had followed Honey's barks and finally found us. They quickly got me out of the car and onto a stretcher. I was grateful that Honey had managed to bring help.
After I got all sorts of tests, Robin told me what had happened. She said that when Honey got back home, she was frantic. She kept barking and running around the house, which is unusual. Robin realized something was wrong and followed Honey back to the accident site. I was amazed at Honey's intelligence and loyalty. Thanks to her, I was saved. I knew I owed my life to my wonderful dog.
