Throughout all the events in my life, one in particular sticks out more than the others. As I reflect on this significant event, a smile spreads across my face. As I think of Shanda, I feel loved and grateful.
It was my twelfth year of dancing, I thought it would end up like any other year: stuck in emptiness, forgotten and without the belief of any teacher or friend that I really had the potential to achieve greatness.
However, I met Shanda, a young, talented choreographer (编舞者,舞蹈指导). She influenced me to work to the best of my ability, pushed me to keep going when I wanted to give up, encouraged me and showed me the real importance of dancing. Throughout our hard work, not only did my ability to dance grow, but my friendship with Shanda grew as well.
With the end of the year came our show time. As I walked to a backstage filled with other dancers, I hoped for a good performance that would prove my improvement. I waited anxiously for my turn. Finally, after what seemed like days, the loudspeaker announced my name. Butterflies filled my stomach as I took trembling steps onto the big lighted stage. But, with the determination to succeed and eagerness to live up to Shanda’s expectations for me, I began to dance. All my troubles and nerves went away as I danced my whole heart out.
As I walked up to the judge to receive my first place shining, gold trophy (奖杯), I realized that dance is not about becoming the best. It was about loving dance for dance itself, a getaway from all my problems in the world. Shanda showed me that you could let everything go and just dance what you feel at that moment. After all the doubts that people had in me, I believed in myself and did not care what others thought. Thanks to Shanda, dance became more than a love of mine, but a passion.
4. What did the author think her dancing would be for the twelfth year?
A. A change for the better. B. A proof of her potential.
C. A disappointment as before. D. A pride of her teachers and friends.
5. How did Shanda help the author?
A. By offering her help with money. B. By entering her in a competition.
C. By coaching her for longer hours. D. By awakening her passion for dancing.
6. How did the author feel when she stepped on the stage?
A. Proud. B. Relaxed. C. Confused. D. Nervous.
7. What can we learn from the author’s story?
A. Success lies in patience. B. A good teacher really matters.
C. Fame is what the young long for. D. A youth is to be treated with respect.
【答案】4. C 5. D 6. D 7. B

In March 2023, 82-year-old Wilf Bishop found himself almost a thousand meters above sea level, snowshoeing (穿雪鞋行走) across a mountainside in Austria. “I’m not a spiritual person, but it felt so peaceful being up there, even though it was not easy,” he says.
Three years earlier, his wife, Janet, had died of cancer. For Bishop who had loved Janet so deeply and had spent a lifetime talking to such a lovely woman, pain overwhelmed him and the silence seemed unbearable. “Besides, since it was the start of the Covid lockdowns, it was very isolating,” he says. Home alone, without the person he had always turned to for support, Bishop went for daily walks in the nearby Yorkshire Dales and tried to write about his experiences. “It distanced me from the pain,” he says. “It put it elsewhere for a while, on to the page, since no one can live with that amount of anguish forever.”
A decade earlier. Bishop had given up skiing out of fear of taking a bad fall and doing damage to his body, but he found himself longing for the experience of being on the mountainside again. “I wanted to find a way of getting back to the outdoors, to experience the soothing wind and the majestic views,” he says. “I also needed it socially.”
A mountaineering friend offered Bishop a possible solution. He suggested that Bishop try snowshoeing instead of skiing. He called up the leaders of a forthcoming week-long expedition being organized by the UK branch pf the Austrian Alpine Club. They assured him that if he could walk, he could snowshoe.
By March 2023, Bishop was in the Tirol mountains in the Alps with a dozen strangers from across Europe and a trained leader. “It was a really strenuous activity, walking up to eight hours a day but I had the most wonderful time,” he says. “Plus, I was with a group of fantastic people, all open-minded, generous and keen to share this experience together.”
Back at home, Bishop eagerly booked another week-long expedition for the next winter. “The snowshoeing trips have encouraged me to get healthier and practice tai chi every morning,” he says. “I’m lucky that I can maintain fitness in my older years and it’s a tremendous ego boost.”
8. What does the underlined word “anguish” probably mean in Paragraph 2?
A. Pity. B. Anger. C. Pain. D. Anxiety.
9. What did Bishop expect to get by being on the mountainside again?
A. Comfort and company. B. Amusement and happiness.
C. Support and encouragement. D. Understanding and relaxation.
10. How did Bishop’s friend help Bishop?
A. By practicing tai chi with him every morning.
B. By turning to a mountaineering club for help.
C. By accompanying him across a mountainside.
D. By encouraging him to be social in the community.
11. What can be a suitable title for the passage?
A. A New Start from the Mountainside B. Snowshoeing in Austria
C. Bishop and His Wife D. Ways to Overcome Sadness
【答案】8. C 9. A 10. B 11. A
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章讲述2023年3月,82岁的Wilf Bishop在探险队的带领下,在海拔近1000米的奥地利山腰上穿雪鞋行走。
【8题详解】
词句猜测题。由文章第二段“Three years earlier, his wife, Janet, had died of cancer. (三年前,他的妻子Janet死于癌症。)”以及“Home alone, without the person he had always turned to for support, Bishop went for daily walks in the nearby Yorkshire Dales and tried to write about his experiences. “It distanced me from the pain,” he says. “It put it elsewhere for a while, on to the page, since no one can live with that amount of anguish forever.”(Bishop独自一人在家,没有一直寻求支持的人,他每天都去附近的约克郡山谷散步,并试图写下他的经历。‘这让我远离了痛苦,’他说。‘书写把这段痛苦放在其他地方一段时间,放在纸上,因为没有人能永远忍受这种 。’)”可知,这里指Bishop无法忍受失去妻子的痛苦,也和前面pain对应,所以猜测anguish表“痛苦”的意思。故选C项。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。由文章第三段“‘I wanted to find a way of getting back to the outdoors, to experience the soothing wind and the majestic views,’ he says. ‘I also needed it socially.’(他说:‘我想找到一种回到户外的方式,体验一下舒缓的风和壮丽的景色。我在社交上也需要它。’)”以及上文所讲他的痛苦和孤独可知,回到户外能让他心情得到舒缓和安慰,并且在社交上面对他也有帮助,即找到陪伴。故选A项。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。由文章第四段“He called up the leaders of a forthcoming week-long expedition being organized by the UK branch pf the Austrian Alpine Club. They assured him that if he could walk, he could snowshoe.(他召集了即将到来的为期一周的探险队的领导,这次探险队由奥地利阿尔卑斯山俱乐部英国分会组织。他们向他保证,如果他能走路,他就会穿雪鞋走上山。)”可知,Bishop的朋友向登山俱乐部寻求帮助来帮助Bishop。故选B项。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。由文章第一段“In March 2023, 82-year-old Wilf Bishop found himself almost a thousand meters above sea level, snowshoeing(穿雪鞋行走) across a mountainside in Austria.(2023年3月,82岁的WilfBishop发现自己在海拔近1000米的地方,穿着雪鞋穿过奥地利的一座山腰。)”以及下文可知,本文主要讲述了Bishop在经历丧妻之痛后,通过山坡雪鞋行走走出阴霾,重新开启健康新生活的故事。A选项“从山坡开启的新开始”符合全文主旨。故选A项。
D
In the worsening economic environment, restaurants are turning to sharing menus to stop hard up customers from cutting back on starters and desserts.
Expenses in restaurants have fallen by 14 percent, from £25. 38 to £21. 80 per head, in part because customers are having main courses only and skipping starters and desserts, the research firm Lumina Intelligence has found. This is also hitting receipts from drinks, with the number of meals including alcohol falling from 38. 5 percent to 33. 9 percent. “To increase profit, restaurants are introducing sharing dishes across courses, including starter and dessert dishes, to encourage customers to spend more,” according to Lumina Intelligence.
Linden Stores, a restaurant that is owned by Laura Christie and her husband and was relocated to the village of Audlem from London in 2020, started a whole new menu of modern British food, with two people sharing seven dishes recently. And, for Christie, it was really a bolt out of the blue. “I wasn’t expecting it be such a hit,” said Christie. “It was quite a new idea for people. We’re in a small village but it turned out we were breaking more boundaries than we’d thought with this sharing concept.”
Linden Stores is not alone in rethinking its menu to make sharing food more commonplace. A large number of restaurants are following this, among which is EI Pastor, a group of Mexican restaurants in London. Actually, stealing your partner’s dessert is a time-honored restaurant tradition, but restaurant owners are increasingly offering two spoons as a matter of course as sharing food becomes the latest way for the hospitality industry to fight the recession.
Sharing works because restaurants have become less formal, Christie believes. “It makes people feel like they’re getting more of an experience. Sharing food offers a delicious and exciting way to put together history, culture, and love. It helps save diners spending per head. It also helps with the efficiency of restaurants, because you know what you’re having to prepare and you need fewer people to deliver it because you know, ahead of time, what you’re doing. ”
12. What is the writing purpose of Paragraph 2?
A. To list restaurants’ efforts to make a profit. B. To describe people’s new food preference.
C. To introduce a new topic for discussion. D. To give some background information.
13. What does the underlined part “a bolt out of the blue” mean in Paragraph 3?
A. It was quite disturbing. B. It was completely surprising.
C. It was very disappointing. D. It was rather obvious.
14. Why does the writer mention EI Pastor in Paragraph 4?
A. To prove the success of Linden Stores’ reform. B. To explain the tradition of sharing food.
C. To show the popularity of sharing menus. D. To express the hospitality of restaurants.
15. What message is conveyed in Christine’s words in the last paragraph?
A. Delicious food is vital in the successful running of a restaurant.
B. Good preparation makes a big difference.
C. Sharing menus is a win-win thing.
D. Sharing food helps people bond together.
【答案】12. D 13. B 14. C 15. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要讲述了在经济环境恶化的情况下,餐厅开始转向共享菜单,以阻止顾客在前菜和甜点上削减开支。文章通过实例和数据,说明了共享菜单的优势和流行程度。
【12题详解】
推理判断题。第二段“Expenses in restaurants have fallen by 14 percent, from £25. 38 to £21. 80 per head, in part because customers are having main courses only and skipping starters and desserts, the research firm Lumina Intelligence has found. This is also hitting receipts from drinks, with the number of meals including alcohol falling from 38. 5 percent to 33. 9 percent. “To increase profit, restaurants are introducing sharing dishes across courses, including starter and dessert dishes, to encourage customers to spend more,” according to Lumina Intelligence.(研究公司Lumina Intelligence发现,顾客在餐馆的花费下降了14%,从每人25.38英镑降至21.80英镑,部分原因是顾客只吃主菜,不吃开胃菜和甜点。这也影响了饮料的收入,包括酒精在内的餐食数量从38.5%下降到33.9%。Lumina Intelligence表示:“为了增加利润,餐馆开始在菜品中共享菜肴,包括开胃菜和甜点,以鼓励顾客增加消费”。)”主要介绍了餐厅的开支下降,顾客只点主菜,饮料销售也受到影响,以及餐厅为了增加利润,开始推出共享菜单等背景信息。由此可知,第二段的目的是提供了一些背景信息。故选D。
【13题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第三段““I wasn’t expecting it to be such a hit,” said Christie. “It was quite a new idea for people. We’re in a small village but it turned out we were breaking more boundaries than we’d thought with this sharing concept.”(‘我没想到它会如此受欢迎’。Christie说:‘这对人们来说是一个全新的想法。我们住在一个小村庄,但事实证明,我们打破了比我们想象的更多的共享概念。’)”可知,她没想到共享菜单会如此受欢迎。这对人们来说是一个相当新的想法。由此可推知,“And, for Christie, it was really a bolt out of the blue.(对克里斯蒂来说,这真的是a bolt out of the blue。)”表达的意思是人们对共享菜单的反应出乎Christie的意料、令人惊讶。划线词“a bolt out of the blue”意为“出人意料,令人大吃一惊”,与B选项“It was completely surprising.(这完全出乎意料。)”意意思一致。故选B项。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段“Linden Stores is not alone in rethinking its menu to make sharing food more commonplace. A large number of restaurants are following this, among which is E1 Pastor, a group of Mexican restaurants in London.(林登百货并不是唯一一家重新考虑菜单以使共享食物变得更加普遍的公司。许多餐馆都在效仿这一做法,其中包括伦敦的墨西哥餐馆El Pastor。)”可知,此处以林等百货为例指出其并不是唯一一家重新考虑菜单以使共享食物变得更加普遍的公司,即还有其他的公司采用了同样的做法;由此可知,作者提及EI Pastor是为了说明共享菜单很受餐馆的欢迎。故选C项。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“It makes people feel like they’re getting more of an experience. Sharing food offers a delicious and exciting way to put together history, culture, and love. It helps save diners spending per head. It also helps with the efficiency of restaurants, because you know what you’re having to prepare and you need fewer people to deliver it because you know, ahead of time, what you’re doing.(这让人们觉得他们得到了更多的体验。分享食物是一种将历史、文化和爱情结合在一起的美味而令人兴奋的方式。这有助于节省食客的人均消费。这也有助于提高餐馆的效率,因为你知道你必须准备什么,而且你需要更少的人来送,因为你提前知道你在做什么。”)”可知,对消费者来说,共享菜单可以让他们觉得自己得到了更多的体验,同时有助于减少他们的人均支出,对像Christie这样的餐馆经营者来说,共享菜单能够提高他们的效率。在Christie看来,共享菜单是一件双赢的事情。故选C项。

Throughout all the events in my life, one in particular sticks out more than the others. As I reflect on this significant event, a smile spreads across my face. As I think of Shanda, I feel loved and grateful.
It was my twelfth year of dancing, I thought it would end up like any other year: stuck in emptiness, forgotten and without the belief of any teacher or friend that I really had the potential to achieve greatness.
However, I met Shanda, a young, talented choreographer (编舞者,舞蹈指导). She influenced me to work to the best of my ability, pushed me to keep going when I wanted to give up, encouraged me and showed me the real importance of dancing. Throughout our hard work, not only did my ability to dance grow, but my friendship with Shanda grew as well.
With the end of the year came our show time. As I walked to a backstage filled with other dancers, I hoped for a good performance that would prove my improvement. I waited anxiously for my turn. Finally, after what seemed like days, the loudspeaker announced my name. Butterflies filled my stomach as I took trembling steps onto the big lighted stage. But, with the determination to succeed and eagerness to live up to Shanda’s expectations for me, I began to dance. All my troubles and nerves went away as I danced my whole heart out.
As I walked up to the judge to receive my first place shining, gold trophy (奖杯), I realized that dance is not about becoming the best. It was about loving dance for dance itself, a getaway from all my problems in the world. Shanda showed me that you could let everything go and just dance what you feel at that moment. After all the doubts that people had in me, I believed in myself and did not care what others thought. Thanks to Shanda, dance became more than a love of mine, but a passion.

In March 2023, 82-year-old Wilf Bishop found himself almost a thousand meters above sea level, snowshoeing (穿雪鞋行走) across a mountainside in Austria. “I’m not a spiritual person, but it felt so peaceful being up there, even though it was not easy,” he says.
Three years earlier, his wife, Janet, had died of cancer. For Bishop who had loved Janet so deeply and had spent a lifetime talking to such a lovely woman, pain overwhelmed him and the silence seemed unbearable. “Besides, since it was the start of the Covid lockdowns, it was very isolating,” he says. Home alone, without the person he had always turned to for support, Bishop went for daily walks in the nearby Yorkshire Dales and tried to write about his experiences. “It distanced me from the pain,” he says. “It put it elsewhere for a while, on to the page, since no one can live with that amount of anguish forever.”
A decade earlier. Bishop had given up skiing out of fear of taking a bad fall and doing damage to his body, but he found himself longing for the experience of being on the mountainside again. “I wanted to find a way of getting back to the outdoors, to experience the soothing wind and the majestic views,” he says. “I also needed it socially.”
A mountaineering friend offered Bishop a possible solution. He suggested that Bishop try snowshoeing instead of skiing. He called up the leaders of a forthcoming week-long expedition being organized by the UK branch pf the Austrian Alpine Club. They assured him that if he could walk, he could snowshoe.
By March 2023, Bishop was in the Tirol mountains in the Alps with a dozen strangers from across Europe and a trained leader. “It was a really strenuous activity, walking up to eight hours a day but I had the most wonderful time,” he says. “Plus, I was with a group of fantastic people, all open-minded, generous and keen to share this experience together.”
Back at home, Bishop eagerly booked another week-long expedition for the next winter. “The snowshoeing trips have encouraged me to get healthier and practice tai chi every morning,” he says. “I’m lucky that I can maintain fitness in my older years and it’s a tremendous ego boost.”
8. What does the underlined word “anguish” probably mean in Paragraph 2?
A. Pity. B. Anger. C. Pain. D. Anxiety.
9. What did Bishop expect to get by being on the mountainside again?
A. Comfort and company. B. Amusement and happiness.
C. Support and encouragement. D. Understanding and relaxation.
10. How did Bishop’s friend help Bishop?
A. By practicing tai chi with him every morning.
B. By turning to a mountaineering club for help.
C. By accompanying him across a mountainside.
D. By encouraging him to be social in the community.
11. What can be a suitable title for the passage?
A. A New Start from the Mountainside B. Snowshoeing in Austria
C. Bishop and His Wife D. Ways to Overcome Sadness
D
In the worsening economic environment, restaurants are turning to sharing menus to stop hard up customers from cutting back on starters and desserts.
Expenses in restaurants have fallen by 14 percent, from £25. 38 to £21. 80 per head, in part because customers are having main courses only and skipping starters and desserts, the research firm Lumina Intelligence has found. This is also hitting receipts from drinks, with the number of meals including alcohol falling from 38. 5 percent to 33. 9 percent. “To increase profit, restaurants are introducing sharing dishes across courses, including starter and dessert dishes, to encourage customers to spend more,” according to Lumina Intelligence.
Linden Stores, a restaurant that is owned by Laura Christie and her husband and was relocated to the village of Audlem from London in 2020, started a whole new menu of modern British food, with two people sharing seven dishes recently. And, for Christie, it was really a bolt out of the blue. “I wasn’t expecting it be such a hit,” said Christie. “It was quite a new idea for people. We’re in a small village but it turned out we were breaking more boundaries than we’d thought with this sharing concept.”
Linden Stores is not alone in rethinking its menu to make sharing food more commonplace. A large number of restaurants are following this, among which is EI Pastor, a group of Mexican restaurants in London. Actually, stealing your partner’s dessert is a time-honored restaurant tradition, but restaurant owners are increasingly offering two spoons as a matter of course as sharing food becomes the latest way for the hospitality industry to fight the recession.
Sharing works because restaurants have become less formal, Christie believes. “It makes people feel like they’re getting more of an experience. Sharing food offers a delicious and exciting way to put together history, culture, and love. It helps save diners spending per head. It also helps with the efficiency of restaurants, because you know what you’re having to prepare and you need fewer people to deliver it because you know, ahead of time, what you’re doing. ”
12. What is the writing purpose of Paragraph 2?
A. To list restaurants’ efforts to make a profit. B. To describe people’s new food preference.
C. To introduce a new topic for discussion. D. To give some background information.
13. What does the underlined part “a bolt out of the blue” mean in Paragraph 3?
A. It was quite disturbing. B. It was completely surprising.
C. It was very disappointing. D. It was rather obvious.
14. Why does the writer mention EI Pastor in Paragraph 4?
A. To prove the success of Linden Stores’ reform. B. To explain the tradition of sharing food.
C. To show the popularity of sharing menus. D. To express the hospitality of restaurants.
15. What message is conveyed in Christine’s words in the last paragraph?
A. Delicious food is vital in the successful running of a restaurant.
B. Good preparation makes a big difference.
C. Sharing menus is a win-win thing.
D. Sharing food helps people bond together.
