You’ll be pleased to have your two bank holidays to enjoy some of the things. Canalway Cavalcade Pop down to Little Venice at the end of the week for Canalway Cavalcade, London’s biggest waterway festival.

It is perfect for the whole family, with its various stalls, competitions, music performances and live theatre.

There will also be a garden designed by the Duchess of Cambridge in collaboration with the RHS.

But Zeng Qinghuan, a 30-year-old from Xinhua County in Loudi, Hunan, has turned her whole village into alive streaming set. Her goal is to use e-commerce to help her people live a better life. Known as “Xiangmei Xinbao” on Douyin, Zeng now has more than 3 million followers. One of her videos about traditional ways of planting and harvesting rice has attracted more than 300,000 followers. At the beginning, she didn’t make any money. Zeng’s parents didn’t agree with her decision until she could stand on her own feet and help people sell their products. She has now sold local agricultural products worth tens of millions of yuan, like fermented tofu, preserved pork and dried sweet potatoes. “I’m a daughter of the great mountains. I can also be a contributor to rural development in this new times,” she said. Zeng hopes her experience can encourage more young people to return to their rural hometowns and start their own businesses. In 2021, after she became a representative of the Loudi Municipal People’s Congress, she put forward a proposal to ensure that “each village has one product and one live streaming host of its own”, she plans to help develop 100 social media influencers from her county within three years, and two villages have taken part in the project. “I believe that the rural areas will become a big stage, and being a farmer will be seen as a respectable job too,” said Zeng. 4. Which aspect does Zeng’s video on Douyin attract people a lot? A. Fashion trends in her village. B. The frozen food in her hometown. C. Traditional customs of her village. D. The typical farming of her hometown. 5. Why did Zeng’s parents support her at last? A. Because Zeng had a well-decorated room. B. Because Zeng became well-known on website. C. Because Zeng had many followers and earned much money. D. Because Zeng could make a living by herself and serve the village. 6. Which of the following best describes Zeng? A. Responsible and lovely. B. Down-to-earth and ambitious. C. Caring and fashionable. D. Gifted and rich. 7. What is Zeng going to do according to the last paragraph? A. Invite more young people to her hometown. B. Expand her business to make more money. C. Train more social media influencers in her county. D. Produce more agricultural products to help the farmers. C Have you ever conducted a job interview through video? Do you work remotely and mostly communicate with your colleagues through technologies like Microsoft Teams or Slack? Technologies are rapidly changing how, when, and where we work. But what impact do they have on our work motivation? We recently reviewed the research done to answer this question and unfortunately, the news is not so good. For the most part, technologies have worsened the satisfaction of our psychological needs when we work. They are robbing us of our feelings of control and freedom because they monitor us and tell us what and how to do our work; sometimes they also pressure us to work faster. And they are decreasing our chances to create meaningful relationships with colleagues. To fix and avoid these issues in the future, we have concluded from this review that we need to advocate for the use of psychological knowledge when designing technologies to be used in work environments. Psychologists are well equipped to advise how to design and use technologies in ways that will maintain or even improve the design of our work. Work is considered to be well-designed when it gives us some decision-making power, provides us with performance feedback, and allows us to connect with colleagues not only to increase relatedness but also to see the impact our work has on stakeholders (利益相关者). Good work design makes our work more meaningful. Why is this important? Because work motivation that stems from meaning and enjoyment will be increasingly important in the future of work. Indeed, as work environments and career tracks become more dynamic and precarious, we need workers to be more active and flexible for the changeable situation. And motivation through meaning and enjoyment makes people more active and flexible. So, when you hear your employer wants to introduce new technologies in your workplace, ask them if they have used the service of psychology experts. It will ensure your work keeps being designed in a way that will make it meaningful and enjoyable. 8. According to the recent research review, how do technologies affect our work? A. They decrease our working efficiency. B. They increase our psychological needs. C. They improve our relationships with colleagues. D. They reduce our work motivation for creativity. 9. What does the author suggest for introducing technologies in work? A. Updating technical equipment. B. Consulting psychology experts. C. Reviewing the former research. D. Improving the design of our work. 10. What is paragraph 4 mainly about? A. The process of good work design. B. The potential decision-making power. C. The characteristic of well-designed work. D. The meaning of connection with colleagues. 11. What does the underlined word “precarious” mean in paragraph 5? A. Uncertain. B. Unavoidable. C. Rewarding. D. Straightforward. D What makes people so special? Tool use, self- consciousness, language, and culture are high on the list, but in fact all of these characteristics can be found elsewhere in the animal kingdom. Humans and apes are close relatives, so it is perhaps not surprising that chimpanzees use tools or that gorillas have a sense of fair play, even refuse to eat carrots (which they normally accept) when they see their neighbors getting grapes. But the qualities that we often think of as exclusively (独占) human exist not just on land, but in the ocean as well. Among the invertebrates (无脊椎动物), octopuses (八爪鱼) are known for their intelligence, even exhibiting evidence of playfulness, tool use, and personality. But these skilled predators (捕食者) live alone and consequently lack culture. Dolphins, on the other hand, are large-brained, long-living, social-group-based predators, and it is here that we find the greatest similarity to human-like culture and awareness. Culture depends on the ability of animals to pass on things they have learned to others. Many animals have culture in this sense, but what sets dolphins apart is what they pass on. Some bottlenose dolphins hold sponges (海绵) in their mouths that they use as tools to sweep for fish hiding on the ocean floor. This ability is handed down through generations (especially in females), with some families — grandmother, mother, and daughter — all feeding in this highly specialized way. Another characteristic that dolphins share with humans is their ability to recognize themselves in a mirror. When facing a mirror, most animals behave as if they are interacting with another individual. Even in humans, the ability to recognize that the image in a mirror is oneself does not occur before the age of 18 months. Dolphins not only recognize themselves, but if a black mark is put on the body of a dolphin, it will spend extra time at the mirror to look at the mark. 12. The example of gorillas rejecting carrots shows they ______. A. are not easy to fool B. prefer fruit to vegetables C. have a special taste for food D. have an awareness of equality 13. What do octopuses lack compared with dolphins? A. Social interaction. B. Intelligence. C. Tool using ability. D. Fun- loving spirits. 14. What makes dolphin culture special? A. They tend to hunt in groups. B. Their hunting skills are passed down. C. Their learning environment is favourable. D. Their families are typically female- controlled. 15. What does the passage try to tell us? A. Gorillas have a sense of fair play. B. Octopus are highly intelligent. C. Dolphins can pass down hunting skills and recognize themselves in a mirror. D. Some ocean animals share qualities considered as exclusively human. 第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分) 阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 In today’s rapidly evolving information age, Artificial Intelligence (AI) plays a vital role in our lives, particularly in the field of education____16____And that will help us better adapt to future trends in language education.

She wondered what all of her friends from school were doing on their summer vacations. It had to be a lot better than looking out of a window. Sadie thought about the fun she had last summer when she and her best friend Allison went to the beach. They built sandcastles, played beach volleyball, and even tried surfing. But they wouldn’t be going to the beach together this summer because Allison had moved to a different city far away from Sadie’s. Suddenly, Sadie had an idea. She could call her friend Wendy, who always had funny ideas. Maybe they could ride their bikes together around the park. Sadie raced to the living room, picked up the phone, and called Wendy. She sighed more deeply as the phone rang and rang. Then Sadie seated herself on the sofa, picked up the television remote, and put it down again. She didn’t really want to watch television, so she went to her room and found the list of phone numbers of her good friends from school. In the living room, she called almost each of them, but no one was at home. After hanging up the phone, Sadie wandered into the kitchen and sat down at the table, watching her mom do the cleaning. “Mom, I don’t have anyone to hang out with because my friends from school aren’t home and Allison moved away,” said Sadie. “Honey, there are many things you can do by yourself, like playing your guitar or having a walk in the garden. You could even finish that story about our camping trip,” said Mom. “I don’t want to do those things by myself. I want to play with a friend.” “Sometimes, it is nice to do things by yourself,” said Mom. “I like seeing my friends, but I also like doing things alone like taking a walk by myself or finding a quiet spot to read. Why not have a try?” Sadie thought about her mom’s words and returned to her room. 46. 根据文本内容从方框中选择恰当的词并用其正确形式填入文本图示中,每词限用一次,有两词为多余选项 disappoint   ride   take   suggest   bore  suddenly   phone   look   how   friend   her   tired A Different Way to Spend Summer __out of the window, Sadie sighed and wondered__her friends spent their summer vacations. → Sadie felt quite__. ↓ ↓ All of a __she came up with and idea that she could invite her friend Wendy__ bikes. → Sadie raced to the living room and picked up the__. ↓ ↓ Since Wendy didn’t answer the phone, Sadie called other__, but nobody was at home. → Sadie felt quite__. ↓ ↓ Without anything to do, Sadie turned to her mom for__. → Mom told Sadie sometimes it was nice to do things by __. 47.

Do you work remotely and mostly communicate with your colleagues through technologies like Microsoft Teams or Slack? Technologies are rapidly changing how, when, and where we work. But what impact do they have on our work motivation? We recently reviewed the research done to answer this question and unfortunately, the news is not so good. For the most part, technologies have worsened the satisfaction of our psychological needs when we work. They are robbing us of our feelings of control and freedom because they monitor us and tell us what and how to do our work; sometimes they also pressure us to work faster. And they are decreasing our chances to create meaningful relationships with colleagues. To fix and avoid these issues in the future, we have concluded from this review that we need to advocate for the use of psychological knowledge when designing technologies to be used in work environments. Psychologists are well equipped to advise how to design and use technologies in ways that will maintain or even improve the design of our work. Work is considered to be well-designed when it gives us some decision-making power, provides us with performance feedback, and allows us to connect with colleagues not only to increase relatedness but also to see the impact our work has on stakeholders (利益相关者). Good work design makes our work more meaningful. Why is this important? Because work motivation that stems from meaning and enjoyment will be increasingly important in the future of work. Indeed, as work environments and career tracks become more dynamic and precarious, we need workers to be more active and flexible for the changeable situation. And motivation through meaning and enjoyment makes people more active and flexible. So, when you hear your employer wants to introduce new technologies in your workplace, ask them if they have used the service of psychology experts. It will ensure your work keeps being designed in a way that will make it meaningful and enjoyable. 8. According to the recent research review, how do technologies affect our work? A. They decrease our working efficiency. B. They increase our psychological needs. C. They improve our relationships with colleagues. D. They reduce our work motivation for creativity. 9. What does the author suggest for introducing technologies in work? A. Updating technical equipment. B. Consulting psychology experts. C. Reviewing the former research. D. Improving the design of our work. 10. What is paragraph 4 mainly about? A. The process of good work design. B. The potential decision-making power. C. The characteristic of well-designed work. D. The meaning of connection with colleagues. 11. What does the underlined word “precarious” mean in paragraph 5? A. Uncertain. B. Unavoidable. C. Rewarding. D. Straightforward. 【答案】8. D 9. B 10. C 11. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇议论文,主要讨论了技术对我们工作动机的影响。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“For the most part, technologies have worsened the satisfaction of our psychological needs when we work. They are robbing us of our feelings of control and freedom because they monitor us and tell us what and how to do our work; sometimes they also pressure us to work faster. And they are decreasing our chances to create meaningful relationships with colleagues. (在大多数情况下,技术恶化了我们工作时心理需求的满足。他们剥夺了我们的控制感和自由感,因为他们监视我们并告诉我们做什么以及如何做我们的工作;有时他们也会迫使我们更快地工作。它们正在减少我们与同事建立有意义的关系的机会。)” 可知,技术降低了我们创造性的工作动机。故选D项。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“To fix and avoid these issues in the future, we have concluded from this review that we need to advocate for the use of psychological knowledge when designing technologies to be used in work environments. Psychologists are well equipped to advise how to design and use technologies in ways that will maintain or even improve the design of our work. (为了在未来解决和避免这些问题,我们从这篇综述中得出结论,在设计用于工作环境的技术时,我们需要倡导使用心理学知识。心理学家有能力就如何设计和使用技术提出建议,以保持甚至改进我们的工作设计。)”可知,对于在工作中引入技术,作者的建议是要咨询心理学专家。故选B项。 【10题详解】 主旨大意题。由文章第四段“Work is considered to be well-designed when it gives us some decision-making power, provides us with performance feedback, and allows us to connect with colleagues not only to increase relatedness but also to see the impact our work has on stakeholders(利益相关者). Good work design makes our work more meaningful.(当工作赋予我们一些决策权,为我们提供绩效反馈,并允许我们与同事联系,不仅可以增加相关性,还可以看到我们的工作对利益相关者的影响时,就被认为是精心设计的。好的工作设计使我们的工作更有意义。)”可知,本段主要讲精心设计工作的特点。故选C项。 【11题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第五段“Indeed, as work environments and career tracks become more dynamic and precarious, we need workers to be more active and flexible for the changeable situation. (事实上,随着工作环境和职业轨道变得更加动态和precarious,我们需要员工更加积极和灵活地应对多变的情况。)”中的“need workers to be more active and flexible for the changeable situation”可推断,此处表达工作环境和职业轨迹变得更加容易变化、不确定,precarious意为“不确定”与uncertain“多变的,不确定的”的意思一致。故选A项。 D What makes people so special? Tool use, self- consciousness, language, and culture are high on the list, but in fact all of these characteristics can be found elsewhere in the animal kingdom. Humans and apes are close relatives, so it is perhaps not surprising that chimpanzees use tools or that gorillas have a sense of fair play, even refuse to eat carrots (which they normally accept) when they see their neighbors getting grapes. But the qualities that we often think of as exclusively (独占) human exist not just on land, but in the ocean as well. Among the invertebrates (无脊椎动物), octopuses (八爪鱼) are known for their intelligence, even exhibiting evidence of playfulness, tool use, and personality. But these skilled predators (捕食者) live alone and consequently lack culture. Dolphins, on the other hand, are large-brained, long-living, social-group-based predators, and it is here that we find the greatest similarity to human-like culture and awareness. Culture depends on the ability of animals to pass on things they have learned to others. Many animals have culture in this sense, but what sets dolphins apart is what they pass on. Some bottlenose dolphins hold sponges (海绵) in their mouths that they use as tools to sweep for fish hiding on the ocean floor. This ability is handed down through generations (especially in females), with some families — grandmother, mother, and daughter — all feeding in this highly specialized way. Another characteristic that dolphins share with humans is their ability to recognize themselves in a mirror. When facing a mirror, most animals behave as if they are interacting with another individual. Even in humans, the ability to recognize that the image in a mirror is oneself does not occur before the age of 18 months. Dolphins not only recognize themselves, but if a black mark is put on the body of a dolphin, it will spend extra time at the mirror to look at the mark. 12. The example of gorillas rejecting carrots shows they ______. A. are not easy to fool B. prefer fruit to vegetables C. have a special taste for food D. have an awareness of equality 13. What do octopuses lack compared with dolphins? A. Social interaction. B. Intelligence. C. Tool using ability. D. Fun- loving spirits. 14. What makes dolphin culture special? A. They tend to hunt in groups. B. Their hunting skills are passed down. C. Their learning environment is favourable. D. Their families are typically female- controlled. 15. What does the passage try to tell us? A. Gorillas have a sense of fair play. B. Octopus are highly intelligent. C. Dolphins can pass down hunting skills and recognize themselves in a mirror. D. Some ocean animals share qualities considered as exclusively human. 【答案】12. D 13. A 14. B 15. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了通常被认为是人类独有的一些特征实际上不仅存在于陆地上,也存在于海洋中,八爪鱼具有高度的智慧,而海豚具有与人类极为相似的文化和意识,它们能将捕食技能代代相传,而且可以识别镜子中自己的镜像。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“Humans and apes are close relatives, so it is perhaps not surprising that chimpanzees use tools or that gorillas have a sense of fair play, even refuse to eat carrots (which they normally accept) when they see their neighbors getting grapes.(人类和猿类是近亲,所以黑猩猩会使用工具,大猩猩有公平竞争的意识,甚至当它们看到邻居得到葡萄时拒绝吃胡萝卜(通常它们会接受),这也许并不奇怪)”可知,大猩猩在看到邻居得到葡萄时会拒绝胡萝卜,这表明它们有平等意识。故选D项。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“But these skilled predators live alone and consequently lack culture. Dolphins, on the other hand, are large-brained, long-living, social-group-based predators, and it is here that we find the greatest similarity to human-like culture and awareness.(但这些熟练的捕食者独自生活,因此缺乏文化。另一方面,海豚是脑容量大、寿命长、以社会群体为基础的捕食者,在这里,我们发现了与人类文化和意识最大的相似之处)”可知,与海豚相比,八爪鱼缺乏群体生活中的社会性的互动。故选A项。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“Many animals have culture in this sense, but what sets dolphins apart is what they pass on. Some bottlenose dolphins hold sponges in their mouths that they use as tools to sweep for fish hiding on the ocean floor. This ability is handed down through generations (especially in females), with some families — grandmother, mother, and daughter — all feeding in this highly specialized way.(从这个意义上讲,许多动物都有文化,但海豚的与众不同之处在于它们传递的东西。一些宽吻海豚嘴里含着海绵,它们用海绵作为工具来搜寻隐藏在海底的鱼。这种能力是代代相传的(尤其是在雌性中),有些家庭——祖母、母亲和女儿——都以这种高度专业化的方式喂养)”可知,海豚的捕食技能代代相传,这使得它们的文化很特别。故选B项。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“When facing a mirror, most animals behave as if they are interacting with another individual. Even in humans, the ability to recognize that the image in a mirror is oneself does not occur before the age of 18 months. Dolphins not only recognize themselves, but if a black mark is put on the body of a dolphin, it will spend extra time at the mirror to look at the mark.(当面对镜子时,大多数动物的行为就好像它们在与另一个个体互动。即使是人类,在18个月之前也无法识别镜子里的形象是自己。海豚不仅能认出自己,而且如果海豚身上有一个黑色的标记,它会花更多的时间在镜子前看这个标记)”可知,大多数动物,包括不满18个月的人类,都无法识别镜子中的自己,而海豚却具备这种能力,而且能意识到自己身上的特别标记。由此可知,海豚识别自己镜像的能力是一种高阶的心智技能。即文章想要告诉我们一些海洋动物具有被认为只有人类才有的品质。故选D项。 第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分) 阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 In today’s rapidly evolving information age, Artificial Intelligence (AI) plays a vital role in our lives, particularly in the field of education____16____And that will help us better adapt to future trends in language education.

She wondered what all of her friends from school were doing on their summer vacations. It had to be a lot better than looking out of a window. Sadie thought about the fun she had last summer when she and her best friend Allison went to the beach. They built sandcastles, played beach volleyball, and even tried surfing. But they wouldn’t be going to the beach together this summer because Allison had moved to a different city far away from Sadie’s. Suddenly, Sadie had an idea. She could call her friend Wendy, who always had funny ideas. Maybe they could ride their bikes together around the park. Sadie raced to the living room, picked up the phone, and called Wendy. She sighed more deeply as the phone rang and rang. Then Sadie seated herself on the sofa, picked up the television remote, and put it down again. She didn’t really want to watch television, so she went to her room and found the list of phone numbers of her good friends from school. In the living room, she called almost each of them, but no one was at home. After hanging up the phone, Sadie wandered into the kitchen and sat down at the table, watching her mom do the cleaning. “Mom, I don’t have anyone to hang out with because my friends from school aren’t home and Allison moved away,” said Sadie. “Honey, there are many things you can do by yourself, like playing your guitar or having a walk in the garden. You could even finish that story about our camping trip,” said Mom. “I don’t want to do those things by myself. I want to play with a friend.” “Sometimes, it is nice to do things by yourself,” said Mom. “I like seeing my friends, but I also like doing things alone like taking a walk by myself or finding a quiet spot to read. Why not have a try?” Sadie thought about her mom’s words and returned to her room. 46. 根据文本内容从方框中选择恰当的词并用其正确形式填入文本图示中,每词限用一次,有两词为多余选项 disappoint   ride   take   suggest   bore  suddenly   phone   look   how   friend   her   tired A Different Way to Spend Summer __out of the window, Sadie sighed and wondered__her friends spent their summer vacations. → Sadie felt quite__. ↓ ↓ All of a __she came up with and idea that she could invite her friend Wendy__ bikes. → Sadie raced to the living room and picked up the__. ↓ ↓ Since Wendy didn’t answer the phone, Sadie called other__, but nobody was at home. → Sadie felt quite__. ↓ ↓ Without anything to do, Sadie turned to her mom for__. → Mom told Sadie sometimes it was nice to do things by __. 47.

Maybe they could ride their bikes together around the park.(她可以叫她的朋友Wendy,Wendy总是有有趣的想法。也许她们可以一起骑自行车在公园里转一圈。)”可知,Sadie想邀请Wendy一起起自行车,这里应用动词ride,invite sb. to do sth.意为“邀请某人做某事”,所以空处应用不定式作宾补,所以第五空应填to ride。 6. 考查名词。根据第二段中的“Sadie raced to the living room, picked up the phone, and called Wendy.(Sadie跑到客厅,拿起电话,给Wendy打了电话。)”可知,Sadie跑到客厅,拿起电话,空前有the,空处应用名词,所以第六空应填phone。 7. 考查名词。根据第二段中的“She didn’t really want to watch television, so she went to her room and found the list of phone numbers of her good friends from school. In the living room, she called almost each of them, but no one was at home.(她真的不想看电视,所以她去了自己的房间,找到了学校好朋友的电话号码表。在客厅里,她几乎给他们每个人都打了电话,但家里没有人。)”可知,她给其他的朋友都打了电话,但是没有人在家,这里应用名词friend,空前有other,空处应用名词复数,所以第七空应填friends。 8. 考查形容词。根据第三段中的““Mom, I don’t have anyone to hang out with because my friends from school aren’t home and Allison moved away,” said Sadie.(Sadie说:“妈妈,我没有人可以一起玩,因为我学校的朋友不在家,Allison搬走了。”)”可知,Sadie想和朋友一起出去玩,但是联系不到一个朋友,所以内心感到很失望,空前有felt,这里应用形容词作表语,所以第八空应填disappointed。 9. 考查名词。根据第三段“After hanging up the phone, Sadie wandered into the kitchen and sat down at the table, watching her mom do the cleaning. “Mom, I don’t have anyone to hang out with because my friends from school aren’t home and Allison moved away,” said Sadie. “Honey, there are many things you can do by yourself, like playing your guitar or having a walk in the garden. You could even finish that story about our camping trip,” said Mom.(挂断电话后,Sadie走进厨房,坐在桌子旁,看着妈妈打扫卫生。Sadie说:“妈妈,我没有人可以一起玩,因为我学校的朋友不在家,Allison搬走了。”。妈妈说:“亲爱的,你可以自己做很多事情,比如弹吉他或在花园里散步。你甚至可以完成我们露营旅行的故事。”)”可知,Sadie找不到事情做,于是找妈妈寻求建议,空处应用名词suggestion,为可数名词,前面没有限定词修饰,这里应用复数形式,所以第九空应填suggestions。 10. 考查代词。根据第三段中妈妈的话“Honey, there are many things you can do by yourself(亲爱的,你可以自己做很多事情)”和第四段中妈妈的话“Sometimes, it is nice to do things by yourself(有时候,自己做事情很好)”可知,妈妈建议Sadie自己做一些事,by onself意为“独自”,为固定搭配,这里指Sadie,应用herself,所以第十空应填herself。 【47题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“Sadie looked out of the window and sighed (叹气) as she thought about another long, boring day of summer.(Sadie望着窗外,叹了口气,想着夏天又是一个漫长而无聊的日子。)”和第三段中的““Mom, I don’t have anyone to hang out with because my friends from school aren’t home and Allison moved away,” said Sadie.(Sadie说:“妈妈,我没有人可以一起玩,因为我学校的朋友不在家,Allison搬走了。”)”可知,Sadie望着窗外叹气,因为她最好的朋友Allison搬走了,其他学校的朋友都不在家,她没有人可以一起玩,感到很无聊。故答案为:Because (her friends were not at home and her best friend Allison had moved away to a different city and) she didn’t have anyone to hang out during her summer vacation. 【48题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“Sadie thought about the fun she had last summer when she and her best friend Allison went to the beach. They built sandcastles, played beach volleyball, and even tried surfing.(Sadie想起了去年夏天她和她最好的朋友Allison去海滩时的乐趣。她们建造沙堡,打沙滩排球,甚至尝试冲浪。)”可知,去年暑假Sadie和她最好的朋友Allison在海边度过假日,她们一起建造沙堡,打沙滩排球,甚至尝试冲浪。故答案为:Sadie spent her vacation last summer at the beach with her best friend Allison. They built sandcastles, played beach volleyball, and tried surfing. 【49题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中的““Honey, there are many things you can do by yourself, like playing your guitar or having a walk in the garden. You could even finish that story about our camping trip,” said Mom.(妈妈说:“亲爱的,你可以自己做很多事情,比如弹吉他或在花园里散步。你甚至可以完成我们露营旅行的故事。”)”、第四段中的““Sometimes, it is nice to do things by yourself,” said Mom. “I like seeing my friends, but I also like doing things alone like taking a walk by myself or finding a quiet spot to read. Why not have a try?”(“有时候,自己做事情很好,”妈妈说。“我喜欢和朋友们见面,但我也喜欢一个人做一些事情,比如自己散步或找一个安静的地方看书。为什么不试试呢?”)”和最后一段“Sadie thought about her mom’s words and returned to her room.(Sadie想了想妈妈的话,回到了自己的房间。)”可知,妈妈说有的时候自己做一些事情也很不错,建议Sadie尝试一下,Sadie听了妈妈的话后回到了房间,由此可推测出,她应该会尝试自己做一些事情,比如弹吉他、散步、找一个安静的地方看书、完成露营旅行的故事等。故答案为:After listening to her mother’s words, Sadie will try to do things by herself and find enjoyment in activities like playing her guitar, taking a walk alone, and finding a quiet spot to read. She will also consider finishing the story about their camping trip. 第五部分 写作 (满分20分) 50. 假定你是李华,你校将举办以“Protect Wild Animals”为主题的英语演讲比赛。请你根据以下提示写一篇英语演讲稿。内容包括: 1. 野生动物的现状; 2. 保护建议; 3. 发出倡议。 注意: 1. 词数100左右; 2. 可以适当增加细节,以使行文连贯。 Good morning everyone!
