B In the men’s singles final of table tennis at the 2024 Paris Olympics, Fan Zhendong defeated the Swedish player Moregard with a score of 4 to 1 and successfully won the championship, thus completing a remarkable grand slam feat(非凡的大满贯壮举). Fan Zhendong has a friendly nickname “Xiao Pang” and enjoys extremely high popularity. Looking back at the whole tournament journey, his path to advancement(晋升之路) wasn’t smooth. In the men’s singles quarterfinals, he encountered the strong Japanese player Harimoto Tomokazu. At the start of the game, he fell into a difficult situation and was trailing 0 to 2. Later, he was once in an unfavorable(不利的) position of 2 to 3. But with tenacious(顽强的) fighting spirit and excellent technical adjustment ability(技术调整能力), he finally achieved a great reversal(反转) and defeated Harimoto Tomokazu 4 to 3, successfully advancing to the semifinals. In the semifinals, facing the French local player, Fan Zhendong quickly entered the state and showed absolute dominance. He didn’t give the opponent any chance and smoothly advanced to the final with a crisp performance. The final opponent, Moregard, should not be underestimated(低估). He uses a unique hexagonal(六边的) racket. Previously, he eliminated(淘汰) the number one seed Wang Chuqin. Although Wang Chuqin’s defeat might be related to the use of a spare racket, this also reflects Moregard’s strength to some extent. Fan Zhendong’s table tennis path is filled with many glorious(荣耀的) moments. He won the championship at the Men’s Table Tennis World Cup in 2016, demonstrating extremely strong strength. At the 2021 World Table Tennis Championships in Houston, he outshone others and won the men’s singles championship. Now he has finally become the sixth men’s table tennis grand slam winner after the Swedish player Waldner and the Chinese players Liu Guoliang, Kong Linghui, Zhang Jike, and Ma Long. 23. Who did Fan Zhendong face in the quarterfinals? A. A Swedish player. В. A Japanese player. C. A French local player. 24. What does the underlined word “dominance” in the passage probably mean? A. Weakness. B. Control. C. Failure. 25. What is the main idea of the passage? A. The history of table tennis at the Olympics. B. The comparison between different players at the 2024 Olympics. C. The process of Fan Zhendong winning the 2024 Olympics championship. 26. What can we learn from Fan Zhendong’s story? A. Talent is more important than hard work. B. Being tenacious and skillful leads to success. C. Luck plays an important role in winning championships. C The American writer, Earnest Hemingway, is one of the most famous writers. The Old Man and the Sea is the last great writing in his lifetime. The book first came out in 1952, and then Hemingway won the Nobel Prize in literature(文学) because of it two years later. Readers who like the book speak highly about it. “Well, this story really catches me and lets me fall in love with it from the very first words.” But people who don’t enjoy it think it’s a time-wasting book. They say something like, “This is the worst book ever!” At first, Hemingway was planning to write the story into 1,000 pages at least, but finally he decided to shorten it down into a book of fewer than 200 pages. He wanted the readers to have more imagination(想象力). The book tells a story about Santiago, an old Cuban(古巴) fisherman. The old man doesn’t catch any fish for 84 days. On the 85th day, just as he wishes, there comes up a very giant fish — twice as long as his boat. It’s the biggest Marlin fish he’s ever seen. He fights against the fish for days and nights on the sea with little food and water. However, the boat is followed by a school of sharks. Santiago doesn’t give up and uses the tools at hand to fight with the sharks one by one. But sadly, the fish is eaten up by the sharks at last. He doesn’t bring back a fish but only some fish bones(骨头). Does it mean that the old man is really a loser? I don’t think so. I believe everyone can learn something from him. You may think he is a great man. And maybe you will learn how to focus or how to face the truth. Everyone has dreams. If you find it difficult to make them come true, will you stop? No. You have to go on, just as what the old man does. So, no matter what difficulties you meet, keep trying like Santiago. 27. When did Hemingway win the Nobel Prize in literature? A. In 1950. B. In 1952. C. In 1954. 28. How many pages does The Old Man and the Sea have according to the passage? A. At least 1,000. B. More than 200. C. More than 100. 29. What’s the main idea of the last paragraph? A. What we can learn from Santiago. B. Why it is important to have dreams. C. How to solve the difficulties we meet. 30. In which part of the newspaper can we find this passage? A. Science. B. Literature. C. Fishing. 第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中一项为多余选项。 Usually, when it comes to spring break, ideas like vacations to the beach come to mind.

IV．读写综合（共两节，满分25分） 第一节 简答（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分） 阅读下面短文，根据短文内容回答问题。 Indian-origin Anvitha Vijay has given a new meaning to the phrase “age is just a number”; she has proved(证明) that achievements and knowledge follow passion(激情) and not just age and experience. Vijay, who lives with her parents in Melbourne, Australia, at the age of seven realized that her piggy bank did not have enough money to hire a developer to make her an app, so she decided to teach herself how to code(编码). With the help of YouTube videos, the young techie learned to code. For one entire year, she watched multiple coding tutorials(多个编码教程) on the web and became a programmer herself. Vijay’s inspiration for developing the apps was her little sister, who was still learning to talk. Therefore, Vijay developed an educational app for children that were her sister’s age. The app is called Smartkins, which uses about 100 sounds and flashcards of different animals that help children learn and identify(识别). Later, Vijay developed a similar iOS app for children to identify and learn colors. Each app has been downloaded thousands of times. Vijay’s skills won her a scholarship(奖学) to attend a big tech conference(会议) hosted by Apple in San Francisco, California. There, she got tips from the pros. She went to workshops where she learned about the latest software for app building. All that training led to an idea for a third app. This one, called GoalsHi, is to inspire kids to practice good habits. Users are rewarded(奖励) for achieving goals, such as eating their vegetables or practicing the piano. Vijay says the rewards are like getting a sticker for a job well done. Vijay’s goal is to continue creating technology that helps kids learn while having fun. But even more important to her is that the world sees the power of technology in kids’ hands. “The more training we get in tech at an early age,” she says, “The better chance we have of becoming creativity champions who will one day change the world.” 56. How old was Vijay when she learned to code? 57. Is Smartkins an app for children to identify and learn colors? 58. What is the purpose(目的) of GoalsHi? 59. To Vijay, what is even more important than the creation of technology? 60. Please name two of Vijay’s qualities(品质) that make her succeed in developing apps. 第二节 书面表达（满分15分） 根据要求完成短文写作。 61. 青春是美好的，青春是靓丽的，青春是躁动不安的，处于青春期的少年们烦恼特别多。有些孩子在与家人的相处中也有着不同程度的问题。最近校英语报社以 “Learning to get along with parents” 为题举办英语演讲比赛。你将代表班级去参加演讲比赛。请你根据自己与父母相处的经历写一篇演讲稿。 参考信息: 1. 现象 我过去经常和父母争吵，甚至几天不说话。 2. 原因 父母过分关注我的学习; (pay too much attention to) ...... 3. 措施 我和父母好好沟通; ...... 4. 改变 如今，我..... 要求: 1. 80-120词 (开头结尾已经给出，不计入总词数)； 2. 文中不能出现真实的姓名和学校名称。 Dear teachers and fellow students, Today my speech topic is “Learning to get along with our parents”.
