Otherwise (否则), he will make mistakes and lose the race,” Cao said. In fact, that pressure (压力) is part of the reason why Cao loves the sport. “Competing side by side with another climber really excites me,” he said.

He fell from a 13-meter wall, breaking his lower back. Though it was hard, Cao’s love for the sport made him go back to climbing. Now, Cao is preparing for the Paris Olympics in 2024.

Do you know what the girl and the boy are doing? They are throwing two baby puffins (海鹰) off a cliff (悬崖). Every year in late summer, people on Iceland’s Westman Islands throw thousands of baby puffins off cliffs. This yearly tradition is called “puffling season”. In fact, they just want to save these birds’ lives. Puffins are the most common birds on the Westman Islands in Iceland. Different from most sea birds, they are able to go under water to 60 meters deep to catch fish. Puffins are born on sea cliffs. When baby puffins become large enough, they fly away and spend several years at sea. Then they return to produce their babies. In the past, the birds found the sea by following the light of the moon. But now, city lights make them lose their way. Kyana Sue Powers is an American photographer. She found out about the puffling season while visiting the Westman Islands last summer. One day when she was leaving a restaurant after dinner, she noticed a group of children acting strangely. They were running after puffins. Later, she learned that every year many baby puffins fly into the town after mistaking city lights for the moon. People there spend a few weeks in August and September collecting lost baby puffins, usually four to ten in a night. Then they throw them off cliffs and set them on the right way. That is significant for the puffins. Powers says she feels excited when seeing people throw young puffins. “When you take a baby puffin to the cliff, it’s the first time in its life that it has seen the sea, and it is going to live there for the next few years,” she says. “I really hope it will have a great life!” 9. According to the text, we know puffins ________. A. can fly at birth B. produce babies on the sea cliff C. always get lost when they are at sea D. can quickly find the sea with the help of city lights 10. The underlined word “significant” probably means “________”. A. natural B. possible C. terrible D. important 11. Paragraph 3 mainly talks about ________. A. why Powers became interested in puffins B. how Powers learned about the puffling season C. how people on the Westman Islands protect puffins D. why people on the Westman Islands help lost puffins 12. Which of the following can be the best title (题目) for the text? A. A special way to save puffins B. How to get on well with puffins C. Something you don’t know about puffins D. The Westman Islands—a place for puffin lovers 【答案】9. B 10. D 11. C 12. A 【解析】 【导语】主要讲述了在Westman Islands人们通过一种特别的方式来拯救海鹦。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“Puffins are born on sea cliffs. ”可知，海鹦在海崖上生宝宝。故选B。 【10题详解】 词义猜测题。根据第三段“People there spend a few weeks in August and September collecting lost baby puffins, usually four to ten in a night. Then they throw them off cliffs and set them on the right way. That is significant for the puffins.”可知，那里的人们在八月和九月花几周时间收集走失的海鹦宝宝，然后他们把这些宝宝扔下悬崖，让它们走上正路。这对海鹦来说……，故推测划线单词“significant”意为“重要的”，与important意思相近。故选D。 【11题详解】 段落大意题。根据第三段内容“ People there spend a few weeks in August and September collecting lost baby puffins”可知，主要描述了人们如何在Westman Islands保护迷路的海鹦。故选C。 【12题详解】 最佳标题题。通读全文可知，主要讲述了在Westman Islands人们通过一种特别的方式来拯救海鹦。故最佳标题为：拯救海鹦的特殊方法。故选A。 D Trends (潮流) always come and go. Many goods (商品) people buy to keep up with fashion (时尚) often end up in the rubbish bin. Now many young Chinese people are giving these things a second life. They are called “stoopers”, and they pick up idle (闲置) things and reuse them. They are mainly in big cities such as Shanghai, Beijing and Guangzhou. Chen Jiaorong is one of them. She started stooping in June 2022 when she found many people were throwing away the things that they hardly ever used after they got free from the COVID lockdown in Shanghai. After that, Chen often “found treasures” in her spare time. Now her house is filled with things that have been redesigned (重新设计) from the idle goods she has collected, including tables, chairs and clothes. “Some people say stooping means collecting rubbish,” Chen said. “But for me, it is about making the best use of things.” That’s why she wants to introduce the trend to others. Sometimes Chen also puts stickers on idle goods that she doesn’t need and posts pictures of them online for others to find. Huang Xiaohe from Kunming No.1 High School loves stooping too. She’s had a hobby of keeping things since her childhood. Though the 13-year-old girl has few chances to go stooping in her city, Huang often looks for idle goods around her school. She then cleans and redesigns them, turning them into fun things at home. “I believe that any waste can be turned into treasures,” said Huang. She also added that stooping was an action to fight over-buying. 13. What can we know about stoopers? A. They are mainly in villages. B. They always keep up with fashion. C. They can’t afford expensive goods. D. They try to protect environment. 14. Which of the following question isn’t answered in Paragraph 2? A. What does Chen think of stooping? B. What has Chen collected? C. Why did Chen start stooping? D. When did Chen start stooping? 15. The writer wrote this text to encourage people to ________. A. keep up with fashion B. recycle and reuse idle goods C. buy what they really need D. give useless things to others 16. According to the text, which one of the following is a real stooper? A. Zhou Liang often collects useless things for sale in his free time. B. Smith always tells his students to protect our environment. C. Mina uses old clothes people no longer wear to make bags. D. Li Jing’s mum often donates money and food to help those in need. 【答案】13. D 14. A 15. B 16. C 【解析】 【导语】本文主要介绍了两人把废弃物品捡回来循环利用的故事。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。根据“Now many young Chinese people are giving these things a second life. They are called “stoopers”, and they pick up idle ( 闲置的 ) things and reuse them.”可知，stoopers重新利用闲置物品，故推断出他们通过这种方式来保护环境。故选D。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“Chen Jiaorong is one of them. She started stooping in June 2022 when she found many people were throwing away the things that they hardly ever used after they...collected, including tables, chairs and clothes.”可知，本段提到了陈交荣开始“捡漏”的时间、原因以及她收集的一些物品，并未提到她对“捡漏”的看法。故选A。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。本文主要介绍了两人把废弃物品捡回来循环利用的故事，鼓励人们回收再利用闲置物品。故选B。 【16题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“They are called ‘stoopers’, and they pick up idle goods and reuse them.”可知，把闲置的物品捡起来重新利用的人叫stooper，只有C选项中的Mina是利用人们不再穿的旧衣服制作包，这符合stooper的定义。故选C。 第二节 阅读短文，从下面所给的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，其中有一个多余选项。 How to Improve Your Reading Learning how to read well in English might not be an easy task. ____17____ Reading well in English is useful for many reasons, not only for taking tests.

For the reason, people are paying less attention to handwriting. As a result, they can’t even remember exactly how to write a given character sometimes. This is called “character amnesia (提笔忘字)”. To change the situation, the TV program named Chinese Character Dictation (听写) Competition came out. Meng Man, who teaches at Minzu University of China, took part in the competition as a judge (评委). “I was surprised by some competitors because I couldn’t even remember how to write certain characters. But they could,” she said. “Now many adults have trouble writing Chinese characters. This program is really great, since it draws people’s attention to this problem.” When typing or texting, most people use a system where they type out the pinyin of a character and then get a list of all possible Chinese characters. They just need to choose the one they want from the list. The bad thing about the system is that it stops people from thinking about how a Chinese character is formed. “Chinese characters are generally square. They teach people to be upright (正直的). Typing or texting will influence people’s understanding of the traditional culture behind the Chinese characters,” Meng said. To solve the problem of “character amnesia”, experts suggest that people change their mobile phone texting way from pinyin to handwriting. In this way, they can avoid forgetting how to write characters. 41. Why are people paying less attention to handwriting nowadays? __________________________________________ 42. What does Meng Man do? __________________________________________ 43. What is the disadvantage of the pinyin typing system? __________________________________________ 44. Do you think it’s necessary for us to write Chinese characters every day? Why? Write 30 words or more. __________________________________________ 【答案】41. Because typing or texting is taking the place of the strokes of Chinese characters. 42. She teaches at Minzu University of China. 43. It stops people from thinking about how a Chinese character is formed. 44. Yes, I think it’s necessary. Because writing Chinese characters is an important skill for anyone learning the Chinese language. Chinese characters are not only a means of communication, but they also carry a rich cultural and historical significance. 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了电视节目《中国汉字听写大会》推出的原因、背景、目的和意义。 【41题详解】 根据“Nowadays, typing or texting is taking the place of the strokes (笔画) of Chinese characters (汉字). For the reason, people are paying less attention to handwriting.”可知，如今打字或发短信正在取代汉字的笔画，所以人们很少注重书写。故填Because typing or texting is taking the place of the strokes of Chinese characters. 【42题详解】 根据“Meng Man, who teaches at Minzu University of China”可知，蒙曼在中央民族大学教书。故填She teaches at Minzu University of China. 【43题详解】 根据“The bad thing about the system is that it stops people from thinking about how a Chinese character is formed.”可知，拼音打字系统阻止了人们思考一个汉字是如何形成的。故填It stops people from thinking about how a Chinese character is formed. 【44题详解】 开放性作答，言之有理即可。参考答案为Yes, I think it’s necessary. Because writing Chinese characters is an important skill for anyone learning the Chinese language.

Good habits are important and valuable. The habit of reading plays an important role in my growth. When I was a kid, my mother often read some stories to me which made me interested in reading.

The answer is: less than 5 seconds. On May 30, Chinese speed climber (速度攀岩者) Cao Long made history. In Zhejiang, he finished his climbing at 4.98 seconds and people call him “Chinese Spider-Man”. “The race finishes in seconds. So a climber should be careful and keep calm. Otherwise (否则), he will make mistakes and lose the race,” Cao said. In fact, that pressure (压力) is part of the reason why Cao loves the sport. “Competing side by side with another climber really excites me,” he said. Cao took up climbing at the age of 8 and he won the national climbing competition two years later. When he was 14, a terrible accident happened to him. He fell from a 13-meter wall, breaking his lower back. Though it was hard, Cao’s love for the sport made him go back to climbing. Now, Cao is preparing for the Paris Olympics in 2024. In his eyes, the good race result is a thing of the past. “I’ll keep improving myself and try to do better next time,” Cao said. 5. Cao Long thinks speed climbing is ________.

They are throwing two baby puffins (海鹰) off a cliff (悬崖). Every year in late summer, people on Iceland’s Westman Islands throw thousands of baby puffins off cliffs. This yearly tradition is called “puffling season”. In fact, they just want to save these birds’ lives. Puffins are the most common birds on the Westman Islands in Iceland. Different from most sea birds, they are able to go under water to 60 meters deep to catch fish. Puffins are born on sea cliffs. When baby puffins become large enough, they fly away and spend several years at sea. Then they return to produce their babies. In the past, the birds found the sea by following the light of the moon. But now, city lights make them lose their way. Kyana Sue Powers is an American photographer. She found out about the puffling season while visiting the Westman Islands last summer. One day when she was leaving a restaurant after dinner, she noticed a group of children acting strangely. They were running after puffins. Later, she learned that every year many baby puffins fly into the town after mistaking city lights for the moon. People there spend a few weeks in August and September collecting lost baby puffins, usually four to ten in a night. Then they throw them off cliffs and set them on the right way. That is significant for the puffins. Powers says she feels excited when seeing people throw young puffins. “When you take a baby puffin to the cliff, it’s the first time in its life that it has seen the sea, and it is going to live there for the next few years,” she says. “I really hope it will have a great life!” 9. According to the text, we know puffins ________. A. can fly at birth B. produce babies on the sea cliff C. always get lost when they are at sea D. can quickly find the sea with the help of city lights 10. The underlined word “significant” probably means “________”. A. natural B. possible C. terrible D. important 11. Paragraph 3 mainly talks about ________. A. why Powers became interested in puffins B. how Powers learned about the puffling season C. how people on the Westman Islands protect puffins D. why people on the Westman Islands help lost puffins 12. Which of the following can be the best title (题目) for the text? A. A special way to save puffins B. How to get on well with puffins C. Something you don’t know about puffins D. The Westman Islands—a place for puffin lovers D Trends (潮流) always come and go. Many goods (商品) people buy to keep up with fashion (时尚) often end up in the rubbish bin. Now many young Chinese people are giving these things a second life. They are called “stoopers”, and they pick up idle (闲置的) things and reuse them. They are mainly in big cities such as Shanghai, Beijing and Guangzhou. Chen Jiaorong is one of them. She started stooping in June 2022 when she found many people were throwing away the things that they hardly ever used after they got free from the COVID lockdown in Shanghai. After that, Chen often “found treasures” in her spare time. Now her house is filled with things that have been redesigned (重新设计) from the idle goods she has collected, including tables, chairs and clothes. “Some people say stooping means collecting rubbish,” Chen said. “But for me, it is about making the best use of things.” That’s why she wants to introduce the trend to others. Sometimes Chen also puts stickers on idle goods that she doesn’t need and posts pictures of them online for others to find. Huang Xiaohe from Kunming No.1 High School loves stooping too. She’s had a hobby of keeping things since her childhood. Though the 13-year-old girl has few chances to go stooping in her city, Huang often looks for idle goods around her school. She then cleans and redesigns them, turning them into fun things at home. “I believe that any waste can be turned into treasures,” said Huang. She also added that stooping was an action to fight over-buying. 13. What can we know about stoopers? A. They are mainly in villages. B. They always keep up with fashion. C. They can’t afford expensive goods. D. They try to protect environment. 14. Which of the following question isn’t answered in Paragraph 2? A. What does Chen think of stooping? B. What has Chen collected? C. Why did Chen start stooping? D. When did Chen start stooping? 15. The writer wrote this text to encourage people to ________. A. keep up with fashion B. recycle and reuse idle goods C. buy what they really need D. give useless things to others 16. According to the text, which one of the following is a real stooper? A. Zhou Liang often collects useless things for sale in his free time. B. Smith always tells his students to protect our environment. C. Mina uses old clothes people no longer wear to make bags. D. Li Jing’s mum often donates money and food to help those in need. 第二节 阅读短文，从下面所给的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，其中有一个多余选项。 How to Improve Your Reading Learning how to read well in English might not be an easy task. ____17____ Reading well in English is useful for many reasons, not only for taking tests.

For the reason, people are paying less attention to handwriting. As a result, they can’t even remember exactly how to write a given character sometimes. This is called “character amnesia (提笔忘字)”. To change the situation, the TV program named Chinese Character Dictation (听写) Competition came out. Meng Man, who teaches at Minzu University of China, took part in the competition as a judge (评委). “I was surprised by some competitors because I couldn’t even remember how to write certain characters. But they could,” she said. “Now many adults have trouble writing Chinese characters. This program is really great, since it draws people’s attention to this problem.” When typing or texting, most people use a system where they type out the pinyin of a character and then get a list of all possible Chinese characters. They just need to choose the one they want from the list. The bad thing about the system is that it stops people from thinking about how a Chinese character is formed. “Chinese characters are generally square. They teach people to be upright (正直的). Typing or texting will influence people’s understanding of the traditional culture behind the Chinese characters,” Meng said. To solve the problem of “character amnesia” experts suggest that people change their mobile phone texting way from pinyin to handwriting. In this way, they can avoid forgetting how to write characters. 41 Why are people paying less attention to handwriting nowadays? __________________________________________ 42. What does Meng Man do? __________________________________________ 43. What is the disadvantage of the pinyin typing system? __________________________________________ 44. Do you think it’s necessary for us to write Chinese characters every day? Why? Write 30 words or more. __________________________________________ 五、书面表达（满分20分） 45. “坚持不懈，方得始终”。你在初中生活中一直坚持的一项爱好或习惯是什么？请你根据以下提示要点用英语写一篇短文，要点如下： （1）坚持的事； （2）如何做的； （3）你的收获/感想。 注意： （1）词数80—100，开头已给出，不计入总词数； （2）可适当增加细节，以使行文连贯； （3）文中不能出现真实姓名及学校名称。 参考词汇： 坚持…… stick to doing … A river cuts through rock not because of its power, but because of its persistence (坚持). ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
