According to UNESCO, they were calligraphy (书法), painting, chess and the guqin. The guqin, one of the oldest Chinese traditional musical instruments, could date back to 3,000 years ago. With longer strings than many other musical instruments, the guqin can produce rich tones (音调). In 2008, the guqin was added to the Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity by UNESCO. Wu Wenguang, 78, is an inheritor (继承者) of the guqin. He not only perfects his own musical skills but also works hard to keep interest in the guqin alive. Wu said guqin music was often written in simple words. Although some words were given to describe how to use the hands and play the seven strings, there were no instructions on how fast or slow to play it. So even if there are about 3,000 ancient songs for guqin music, different musicians had different understandings, according to Wu. To keep guqin music alive, Wu and his father Wu Jinglue (1907—1987), who was also good at playing the guqin, re-created over 100 ancient scores (乐谱). Besides ancient guqin songs, Wu has also changed music works from today and put them into his performances to increase the popularity of guqin music. “Guqin playing has become more popular among young people with a new wave of interest in the nation’s traditional culture,” said Wu Ye, Wu’s daughter, also an inheritor of the guqin. To attract young people, Wu and other inheritors also organize a series of guqin concerts with different themes. 25. What do we know about the guqin? A. One who loves the guqin usually is a lover of painting. B. Its history is as long as calligraphy and chess. C. It can create rich tones because of its long strings. D. In ancient times, a scholar had to learn the guqin at a young age. 26. Which of the following has the same meaning as the underlined word “perfects”? A. changes B. praises C. teaches D. improves 27. What makes musicians’ understanding of guqin music different? A. Ancient characters. B. Personal artistic expressions. C. Unclear instructions on speed. D. No description on how to use hands. 28. What did Wu do to keep people interested in the guqin? A. He mixed the guqin with other popular traditional cultures. B. He held concerts with different instruments. C. He made up more than 100 new scores. D. He used modern music in his performances. 【答案】25. C 26. D 27. C 28. D 【解析】 【导语】本文介绍了中国古琴是中国最古老的乐器之一，古琴作为高雅文化的象征，至今仍深得人们的喜爱，并在现代社会中找到了归宿。 【25题详解】 细节理解题。根据“With longer strings than many other musical instruments, the guqin can produce rich tones (音调).”可知，它可以创造丰富的音调，因为它的弦很长。故选C。 【26题详解】 词义猜测题。根据“He not only perfects his own musical skills but also works hard to keep interest in the guqin alive.”可知，他不仅完善自己的音乐技巧，还努力保持对古琴的兴趣。因此划线单词的意思是“改善，完善”，与improves意思一致。故选D。 【27题详解】 细节理解题。根据“Although some words were given to describe how to use the hands and play the seven strings, there were no instructions on how fast or slow to play it.”可知，古琴音乐的速度没有明确的指示，这导致了不同音乐家对古琴音乐的理解不同。故选C。 【28题详解】 细节理解题。根据“Besides ancient guqin songs, Wu has also changed music works from today and put them into his performances to increase the popularity of guqin music.”可知，他在表演中使用了现代音乐。故选D。 C If you look at the top of your phone, you’ll usually see a little symbol that says 3G or 4 G. The “G” stands for the “generation (代)” of your mobile network. But the symbols will become things of the past after 5G networks fully arrive. On March 30, Shanghai Vice-mayor (副市长) Wu Qing made the first 5G video call on a HUAWEI Mate X Smartphone. Shanghai has also become the first city in China to start testing 5G networks. About 100 times faster than 4G networks, 5G will let people download and upload data faster than ever before. But 5G won’t just bring faster mobile Internet. People can use it for many other things as well. For example, 5G will help to make self-driving cars safer. Today’s self-driving test cars have one problem-lag (延迟). When the car “sees” an obstacle (障碍物), it sends this information to a data center and receives instructions. However, it will be some time before it sends and receives this information. With this kind of lag, the cars might crash because they don’t receive instructions in time. With 5G, this lag will be greatly lowered, making the cars safer. 5G could also be used to power the Internet of things (IoT) that is a large online network that connects all things and people. Fast Internet speeds will be the key to developing this technology. The IoT could be used in a lot of ways. For example, with IoT, your refrigerator could automatically (自动地) place an order online for eggs when it finds that there are no eggs left inside. 29. Which city was 5G tested in for the first time in China? A. Beijing. B. Shanghai. C. Shenzhen. D. Qingdao. 30. What can we infer (推断) according to the passage? A. 5G is widely used in China now. B. 5G networks will make our life more convenient. C. There are no symbols at the top of our phones. D. 5G networks won’t help to make self-driving cars safer. 31. Why did the writer used self-driving cars as an example? A. To explain how 5G’s fast speed can be helpful B. To warn about the possible dangers of self-driving cars C. To explain how self-driving cars work D. To let people make sure that self-driving cars will be used at once 32. What statement is right according to the passage? A. 5G will help us buy eggs quickly. B Robots can help us buy eggs online. C. With IoT, our refrigerator can order eggs online for us. D. Our refrigerator can make eggs for us. 【答案】29. B 30. B 31. A 32. C 【解析】 【导语】本文主要讲述了未来5G在各行各业的运用。 【29题详解】 细节理解题。根据“Shanghai has also become the first city in China to start testing 5G networks.”可知，上海成为中国第一个开始测试5G网络的城市。故选B。 【30题详解】 推理判断题。根据“About 100 times faster than 4G networks, 5G will let people download and upload data faster than ever before”及“People can use it for many other things as well.”可知，5G能让网络比4G快100倍，人们在许多其他的地方也使用5G，说明5G让人们的生活更便利。故选B。 【31题详解】 推理判断题。根据“People can use it for many other things as well.”和“For example, 5G will help to make self-driving cars safer. Today’s self-driving test cars have one problem-lag. When the car ‘sees’ an obstacle, it sends this information to a data center and receives instructions...With 5G, this lag will be greatly lowered, making the cars safer.”可知，作者举自动驾驶汽车的例子是为了说明5G的高速是如何有帮助的，故选A。 【32题详解】 细节理解题。根据“For example, with IoT, your refrigerator could automatically place an order online for eggs when it finds that there are no eggs left inside.”可知，当你的冰箱发现里面没有鸡蛋时，它可以自动在网上订购鸡蛋，故选C。 D When your pen is broken, the battery in your toy runs out, or you have some leftover food. What do you do with these things? You will probably throw them into one bin. But actually, all of these pieces of trash need to be sorted (分类) separately. Garbage sorting is a big issue worldwide. In recent years, some Chinese cities have been working hard on it. Shanghai has worked with Alipay to create a “green account (账户)” service for its residents. Account holders get points by correctly sorting their garbage. Through the Alipay app, they can exchange the points for milk, phone cards and other products. The city is asking all of its residents to sort their garbage into four groups: wet, recyclable, harmful and dry. Wet waste is also known as household waste. “They are things you don’t want, but that pigs can eat,” Guangzhou Daily explained. Paper, metal (金属), glass and other things that can be reused are recyclable waste. Harmful waste includes things like medicine, batteries and fluorescent bulbs (荧光灯泡). Finally, any waste that’s not wet, recyclable or harmful will go in the “dry waste” bin. Many other Chinese cities are also using this method to sort their garbage. For example, Shenzhen has been sorting its garbage into the same four groups since 2012. Students there also receive waste-sorting guidebooks that they must study. China is improving its waste-sorting efforts. There is still a long way to go. But it’s never too late to learn how to sort your trash properly and protect the environment. If you don’t sort your garbage, all of it will go to a landfill (垃圾填理场) and be buried together. These landfills can take up large areas of ground that could have been used for planting trees or crops. The electronic waste you throw away, such as batteries, can pollute the soil and groundwater (地下水). Other pieces of garbage, like the metal part of a pen, can be used to make other things if they are properly recycled. 33. How is Shanghai encouraging people to sort their garbage? A. Creating a “green account” service with the help of Alipay B. Paying people to sort their trash correctly C Allowing people to exchange garbage with each other D Providing its residents with guidebooks to help them 34. Which of the following would be classified as wet waste? A. Batteries B. Glasses C. Leftover food D. Medicine 35. What do we know about garbage sorting in China? A. It started its garbage sorting system in 2012. B. Students have to take waste-sorting classes in school. C. There is still a lot of work to be done in this area. D. Burying garbage is a common method of getting rid of garbage. 36. What is the main idea of the last paragraph? A. Where we can bury our waste. B. Why we should sort our garbage properly. C. What kinds of waste can pollute the environment. D. How some kinds of waste can be reused and recycled. 【答案】33. A 34. C 35. C 36. B 【解析】 【分析】文介绍了中国的一些城市一直进行努力进行垃圾分类。上海通过支付宝打造“绿色账户”服务，鼓励人们垃圾分类。许多其他中国城市也在进行分类垃圾。 【33题详解】 细节理解题。根据“Shanghai has worked with Alipay to create a “green account (账户)” service for its residents. Account holders get points by correctly sorting their garbage.”可知，上海通过支付宝打造“绿色账户”服务，鼓励人们垃圾分类，故选A。 【34题详解】 推理判断题。根据“Wet waste is also known as household waste. “They are things you don’t want, but that pigs can eat,” Guangzhou Daily explained.”可知，湿垃圾也被称作厨余垃圾，这些垃圾是可以用来喂猪的，所以四个选项中C选项属于湿垃圾，故选C。 【35题详解】 细节理解题。根据“China is improving its waste-sorting efforts. There is still a long way to go.”可知，中国在垃圾分类方面还有很多工作要做。故选C。 【36题详解】 主旨大意题。根据“If you don’t sort your garbage, all of it will go to a landfill (垃圾填理场) and be buried together…”可知，最后一段告诉我们正确地垃圾分类是非常重要的，因此本段主要关于我们为什么应该正确地垃圾分类，故选B。 第二节： 阅读下面短文，从短文后的五个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有一项为多余选项。 Telling Chinese stories to the world is a responsibility for those of us who can speak English.

Now many westerners put the knives and forks beside their bowls and dishes but choose chopsticks in China. 【答案】46. usually 47. to see 48. are given 49. first 50. helpful 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了筷子的发展历史以及筷子所代表的含义。 【46题详解】 句意：在古代，富人通常使用坚硬的绿石或金筷子来显示他们的财富。该句不缺少成分，考虑填入一个副词作状语，usual的副词是usually。故填usually。 【47题详解】 句意：据说，银筷子如果碰到有毒的食物会变黑(但如今我们知道这是错的)，所以在历史上许多国王用它们来判断食物是否对自己有害。use sth. to do sth.意为“用某物做某事”，to do不定式表目的。故填to see。 【48题详解】 句意：在中国，当女儿结婚时，人们会给她筷子，希望他们很快有个孩子，因为“筷子”这个词的中文发音像“快子”。主语chopsticks与动词give之间存在被动关系，根据“marries”可知，此句是一般现在时，主语chopsticks是复数形式，助动词用are。故填are given。 【49题详解】 句意：所以在新年第一天，许多家庭会在用餐时把新的筷子放在桌上，盼望好运。根据句意，结合空格前的定冠词the，可知该处需要填入一个序数词表示顺序。故填first。 【50题详解】 句意：人们认为，在用餐时使用筷子有助于让你的手指灵活地做任何事。is后接形容词作表语，根据“to make your fingers do everything freely”可知，填入空格的形容词是正面的，help的形容词helpful意为“有帮助的”。故填helpful。 八、综合阅读。(共5小题，每小题2分；满分10分) A road is a path that links two places. The Silk Road is a path that has linked the Eastern and Western worlds for(A) more than 2,000 years. But did you know: the Silk Road is not a single route! It is actually a series of trade and cultural transmission (传送) routes that started in ancient times. It began during the Western Han Dynasty. The trade route started from the city of Xi’an in Shanxi province and ended in Eastern Europe, near today’s Turkey and the Mediterranean Sea (地中海). The Silk Road was about 6,500 kilometers long.(B) It went across one-fourth of the planet. The Silk Road got its name(C)________ Chinese silk used to be carried along this road. Apart from silk, jade (玉器), ceramics (陶器) and iron went west to Rome. From the west came glass, gems, and food like carrots and sesame (芝麻). The Silk Road was very important to both China and the rest of the world. In addition to goods, knowledge of science, arts, literature(D) as well as technology, was shared across the Silk Roads. In this way, languages and cultures developed and influenced each other. Today, places along the Silk Road are known (E)________ top travel destinations (目的地), such as the Terracotta Warriors in Xi’an and Mogac Grottoes in Dunhuang, Gansu. Beginning in August, 2014, a train line, the New Orient Express, started to run from Beijing across the Silk Road.

People can take a/the train 54. ①. because ②. as 55. ①. carrots ②. sesame 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章阐述了世界东西重要的通道——丝绸之路的历史和发展。 【51题详解】 The Silk Road is a path that has linked the Eastern and Western worlds for more than 2,000 years表示“丝绸之路是一条连接东西方世界2000多年的道路”，划线部分more than“超过”，其同义词为over； In addition to goods, knowledge of science, arts, literature as well as technology, was shared across the Silk Roads.表示“除了物品，科学知识，艺术，文学和技术，也被分享在整个丝绸之路”，划线部分as well as“和”，其近义词为and。故填over；and。 【52题详解】 It went across one-fourth of the planet表示“他穿越四分之一个地球”，go across“穿越”=cross，one-fourth“四分之一”=a quarter，根据原句可知时态为一般过去时，故填crossed；quarter。 【53题详解】 人们：people；可以：can，情态动词，后跟动词原形；坐火车take a/the train，故填People can take a/the train。 【54题详解】 句意：丝绸之路得到它的名字是因为中国的丝绸曾经被沿着这条路运送。根据“The Silk Road got its name”和“Chinese silk used to be carried along this road”可知二者为因果关系，故填because；句意：今天，沿着丝绸之路的一些地方作为顶尖旅游目的地而闻名。be known as...“作为……而出名”符合语境，故填as。 【55题详解】 根据“From the west came glass, gems, and food like carrots and sesame”可知从西方运来的食物有胡萝卜和芝麻，故填carrots；sesame。 九、书面表达 (20分) 56. 榜样是我们学习的楷模、努力的方向。学校英语社团开展以“介绍我心中的榜样”为主题的社团活动。假如你是李华，请你写一封英文发言稿来介绍你心中的榜样——李想。 内容包括： 1. 人物描写； 2. 说明理由； 3. 表达希望。 【注意】 1. 词数80—100，开头和结尾已为你写好，不计入总词数； 2. 短文须包括所给内容信息，可以适当增加细节，以使行文连贯； 3. 作文中不要出现考生和相关人物的真实校名和姓名。 Dear fellow students, I am Li Hua.

It’s a good ambassador (形象大使) of the event and makes games memorable! Let’s meet some popular mascots for the big sporting events right now! “Bing Dwen Dwen” was chosen as the mascot for the 2022 Beijing Winter Olympic Games. It’s a cartoon image of a panda wearing a spacesuit. Bing Dwen Dwen shows the spirit of the Olympics, including a strong mind and a healthy body. “Miraitowa”, the blue and white mascot was for the 2020 Tokyo Olympics. It is a robot with a strong sense of justice (正义感) and has the power to move around very quickly. It stands the wish that the Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games will give everyone around the world hope forever. The mascot for the FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022 was La’eeb! Meaning a “super-skilled player” in Arabic, La’eeb actually comes from a traditional Arabic headdress (头巾). La’eeb asks everyone to believe in themselves because “Now is All”. He brings the joy of soccer to everyone. Phrygian caps will be the Paris 2024 Olympic Games mascots as organizers look to celebrate the French revolution’s (革命) spirit. “Phryges” aim to show that sport can change everything, and that it deserves to have an important place in society. 21.

The Paris 2024 Olympic Games. 24. From which is the text probably taken? A. A story book. B. A sports newspaper. C. A shopping review. D. A science magazine. B Which arts were Chinese ancient scholars (学者) expected to learn? According to UNESCO, they were calligraphy (书法), painting, chess and the guqin. The guqin, one of the oldest Chinese traditional musical instruments, could date back to 3,000 years ago. With longer strings than many other musical instruments, the guqin can produce rich tones (音调). In 2008, the guqin was added to the Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity by UNESCO. Wu Wenguang, 78, is an inheritor (继承者) of the guqin. He not only perfects his own musical skills but also works hard to keep interest in the guqin alive. Wu said guqin music was often written in simple words. Although some words were given to describe how to use the hands and play the seven strings, there were no instructions on how fast or slow to play it. So even if there are about 3,000 ancient songs for guqin music, different musicians had different understandings, according to Wu. To keep guqin music alive, Wu and his father Wu Jinglue (1907—1987), who was also good at playing the guqin, re-created over 100 ancient scores (乐谱). Besides ancient guqin songs, Wu has also changed music works from today and put them into his performances to increase the popularity of guqin music. “Guqin playing has become more popular among young people with a new wave of interest in the nation’s traditional culture,” said Wu Ye, Wu’s daughter, also an inheritor of the guqin. To attract young people, Wu and other inheritors also organize a series of guqin concerts with different themes. 25. What do we know about the guqin? A. One who loves the guqin usually is a lover of painting. B. Its history is as long as calligraphy and chess. C. It can create rich tones because of its long strings. D. In ancient times, a scholar had to learn the guqin at a young age. 26. Which of the following has the same meaning as the underlined word “perfects”? A. changes B. praises C. teaches D. improves 27. What makes musicians’ understanding of guqin music different? A. Ancient characters. B. Personal artistic expressions. C. Unclear instructions on speed. D. No description on how to use hands. 28. What did Wu do to keep people interested in the guqin? A. He mixed the guqin with other popular traditional cultures. B. He held concerts with different instruments. C. He made up more than 100 new scores. D. He used modern music in his performances. C If you look at the top of your phone, you’ll usually see a little symbol that says 3G or 4 G. The “G” stands for the “generation (代)” of your mobile network. But the symbols will become things of the past after 5G networks fully arrive. On March 30, Shanghai Vice-mayor (副市长) Wu Qing made the first 5G video call on a HUAWEI Mate X Smartphone. Shanghai has also become the first city in China to start testing 5G networks. About 100 times faster than 4G networks, 5G will let people download and upload data faster than ever before. But 5G won’t just bring faster mobile Internet. People can use it for many other things as well. For example, 5G will help to make self-driving cars safer. Today’s self-driving test cars have one problem-lag (延迟). When the car “sees” an obstacle (障碍物), it sends this information to a data center and receives instructions. However, it will be some time before it sends and receives this information. With this kind of lag, the cars might crash because they don’t receive instructions in time. With 5G, this lag will be greatly lowered, making the cars safer. 5G could also be used to power the Internet of things (IoT) that is a large online network that connects all things and people. Fast Internet speeds will be the key to developing this technology. The IoT could be used in a lot of ways. For example, with IoT, your refrigerator could automatically (自动地) place an order online for eggs when it finds that there are no eggs left inside. 29. Which city was 5G tested in for the first time in China? A. Beijing. B. Shanghai. C. Shenzhen. D. Qingdao. 30. What can we infer (推断) according to the passage? A. 5G is widely used in China now. B. 5G networks will make our life more convenient. C. There are no symbols at the top of our phones. D. 5G networks won’t help to make self-driving cars safer. 31. Why did the writer used self-driving cars as an example? A. To explain how 5G’s fast speed can be helpful B. To warn about the possible dangers of self-driving cars C. To explain how self-driving cars work D. To let people make sure that self-driving cars will be used at once 32. What statement is right according to the passage? A. 5G will help us buy eggs quickly. B. Robots can help us buy eggs online. C. With IoT, our refrigerator can order eggs online for us. D. Our refrigerator can make eggs for us. D When your pen is broken, the battery in your toy runs out, or you have some leftover food. What do you do with these things? You will probably throw them into one bin. But actually, all of these pieces of trash need to be sorted (分类) separately. Garbage sorting is a big issue worldwide. In recent years, some Chinese cities have been working hard on it. Shanghai has worked with Alipay to create a “green account (账户)” service for its residents. Account holders get points by correctly sorting their garbage. Through the Alipay app, they can exchange the points for milk, phone cards and other products. The city is asking all of its residents to sort their garbage into four groups: wet, recyclable, harmful and dry. Wet waste is also known as household waste. “They are things you don’t want, but that pigs can eat,” Guangzhou Daily explained. Paper, metal (金属), glass and other things that can be reused are recyclable waste. Harmful waste includes things like medicine, batteries and fluorescent bulbs (荧光灯泡). Finally, any waste that’s not wet, recyclable or harmful will go in the “dry waste” bin. Many other Chinese cities are also using this method to sort their garbage. For example, Shenzhen has been sorting its garbage into the same four groups since 2012. Students there also receive waste-sorting guidebooks that they must study. China is improving its waste-sorting efforts. There is still a long way to go. But it’s never too late to learn how to sort your trash properly and protect the environment. If you don’t sort your garbage, all of it will go to a landfill (垃圾填理场) and be buried together. These landfills can take up large areas of ground that could have been used for planting trees or crops. The electronic waste you throw away, such as batteries, can pollute the soil and groundwater (地下水). Other pieces of garbage, like the metal part of a pen, can be used to make other things if they are properly recycled. 33. How is Shanghai encouraging people to sort their garbage? A. Creating a “green account” service with the help of Alipay B. Paying people to sort their trash correctly C. Allowing people to exchange garbage with each other D. Providing its residents with guidebooks to help them 34. Which of the following would be classified as wet waste? A. Batteries B. Glasses C. Leftover food D. Medicine 35. What do we know about garbage sorting in China? A. It started its garbage sorting system in 2012. B. Students have to take waste-sorting classes in school. C. There is still a lot of work to be done in this area. D. Burying garbage is a common method of getting rid of garbage. 36. What is the main idea of the last paragraph? A. Where we can bury our waste. B. Why we should sort our garbage properly. C. What kinds of waste can pollute the environment. D. How some kinds of waste can be reused and recycled. 第二节： 阅读下面短文，从短文后五个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有一项为多余选项。 Telling Chinese stories to the world is a responsibility for those of us who can speak English.
