She had moved into a nursing home and didn't have room for extra things. She insisted that she didn't need any gift. Finally, I came up with an idea. In her birthday card, I sent her a gift certificate(礼券)for "A letter a week for the next year!" It was a big promise. I've never been much of a letter writer, but now I was living far from home, and should be able to find plenty of news. Growing up just a mile from my grandparents, we'd always been close. I knew that she'd love to hear what was going on in my life. The letter gift certificate was a big hit. She got fifty-two letters that first year. All showed her that I was thinking of her regularly. As her next birthday rolled around, she asked for another letter gift certificate. In fact, for nine and a half years I wrote about the cold Michigan winters. Then I wrote about my pregnancy(怀孕). During the kids' preschool years, I shared every funny thing they did and said, and as they grew they started adding "picture letters" to the envelope. Once I flew home to visit Grandma and found that all the staff in the nursing home knew the details of my life, as they often read letters to her. My last letter arrived the day after her death. I never missed a letter and I felt I had given her the best gift I could. What I hadn't counted on was how her gift would come full circle to me. Months later, while going through her things, my dad found a box full of letters from me. Those letters are a journal of my life, filled with moment and pictures I had completely forgotten. But Grandma saved those memories for me in my letters. Life really does fly by. Loved ones come and go. But sometimes our gifts to others come back to us in unexpected ways. This is one of those times. 48. The author sent Grandma a gift certificate because ________. A. she had no other gift to give her grandma B. she knew that her grandma would like it C. she didn't have enough money to buy a gift D. she wanted Grandma to choose her favorite gift herself 49. The underlined phrase "a big hit" probably means ________. A. a big surprise B. a satisfying letter C. a bright future D. a big success 50. From the passage, we can infer that the author ________. A. was afraid to write letters when she was a kid B. could always hear from Grandma C. might live in Michigan after getting married D. felt very regretful after Grandma passed away 51. Which of the following is True? A. Grandma died when she was about ninety years old. B. The author was brought up by Grandma so they were very close. C. Later the kids wrote the letters to Grandma instead of the author. D. The author's dad sent Grandma a box to keep the letters. 52. What's the best title of the passage? A. Common Gift in Life B. A Gift Certificate C. The Saved Memories D. My Grandma and I 【答案】48. B 49. D 50. C 51. A 52. C 【解析】 【分析】本文是一篇记叙文。讲述了奶奶的八十岁生日，“我”送给奶奶一张写信的卡券，之后无间断的给奶奶写信直到奶奶去世。奶奶一直将这些信保存了起来，同时也保存了“我”完全忘记的瞬间，甚至保存了“我”与奶奶之间的爱。 【48题详解】 细节理解题。由第二段“I knew that she'd love to hear what was going on in my life.”，可知，我知道奶奶收到“我”的信会很喜欢。故选B。 【49题详解】 词义猜测题。由第三段“She got fifty-two letters that first year. All showed her that I was thinking of her regularly. As her next birthday rolled around, she asked for another letter gift certificate.”可知，由于第一年礼券的巨大成功，奶奶下一年的生日礼物又要了写信的礼券。故选D。 【50题详解】 推理判断题。由第三段“In fact, for nine and a half years I wrote about the cold Michigan winters. Then I wrote about my pregnancy(怀孕).”可推测“我”结婚后住在密歇根州，并写了九年半密歇根州寒冷的冬天。然后直到写自己怀孕。故选C。 【51题详解】 推理判断题。由第一段“Grandma's eightieth birthday was near and I wondered what to give her.”和第三段“In fact, for nine and a half years I wrote about the cold Michigan winters.”以及第四段“My last letter arrived the day after her death.”可知，“我”从奶奶八十岁生日开始，共写了九年半的信，最后一封信是奶奶去世的后一天寄到的。可推知奶奶去世时是九十岁。故选A。 【52题详解】 标题归纳题。由第五段“Those letters are a journal of my life, filled with moment and pictures I had completely forgotten. But Grandma saved those memories for me in my letters.”和第六段“Life really does fly by. Loved ones come and go. But sometimes our gifts to others come back to us in unexpected ways.”可知，全文讲述的是“我”给奶奶写信，最后奶奶将信都保存了起来，将“我”完全忘记的瞬间都保存了起来，甚至保存了“我”和奶奶之间的爱。故选C。 D When you want to buy a pair of running shoes, will you choose Nike or Li-Ning? It’s a choice between local and foreign brands (品牌). According to a latest study, Chinese people generally prefer local brands to foreign brands. They choose the local brands because of the low price, good quality (质量) and creative design. Some Chinese brands have risen in these years. They have even started to win some fans abroad.

Shein, a “fast fashion” brand, made more than 10 billion dollars last year, a 100-percent increase over 2019, Global Times reported. Many European people like Shein products because they’re affordable, fashionable and of high quality. In the future, Chinese brands will continue to develop. Thanks to a bigger market, improved supply chains (供应链) and efficient (高效的) producing, “This is the best time for the development of local brands,” Yan Qiang, a partner with Beijing-based Hejun Consulting, told Global Times. 53.

Foreigners think Chinese is a mysterious (神秘的) and difficult language because it is very different from the Roman alphabet (罗马字母). In fact, Chinese is not much more difficult than learning any other language. One reason is that Chinese does not require memorizing the kind of complex tenses (时态) like European languages. Although it is certainly not easy for foreigners, in my experience you can learn Chinese fast. You will certainly find differences between the language in textbooks and people’s everyday speech. One example of this is the difference between languages on the street and written Chinese. It produces new phrases and vocabulary. In real life nowadays, people often use short, less conversational phrases to communicate with each other. China has many provinces and their dialects are different. After you learn and understand the Beijing dialect, you may find it is hard to understand Shanghai dialect. The language continues developing. So it is still not easy for learners, no matter how well they learn from textbooks. I hope that one day more Chinese courses are able to be connected with “real” spoken Chinese and the way in which Chinese people speak daily. It will help foreign learners to help bridge the gap between learners and native (本土的) speakers. 57. According to the passage, why does the writer think Chinese is not so difficult to learn? A. It gives you the opportunity to communicate with more than a billion people. B. It doesn’t require memorizing the kind of complex tenses. C. It is very different from the Roman alphabet. D. You can find Chinese courses very easily. 58. According to the passage, which sentence may agree with the writer’s idea? A. Chinese is more difficult to learn than any other language. B. People often use long sentences in the real life nowadays. C. The development of language is still going on. D. Foreign learners don’t have to connect Chinese courses with “real” spoken Chinese. 59. According to paragraph 5, what should you do if you want to learn Chinese well? A. Learn some dialects in Chinese daily life. B. Learn written Chinese in Chinese daily life. C. Learn real spoken Chinese in Chinese daily life. D. Learn complex tenses in Chinese daily life. 60. What can we infer (推断) from the text? A. It is too difficult to learn Chinese. B. It is challenging to learn Chinese. C. It is important to learn Chinese well. D. It is necessary to learn Chinese. 【答案】57. B 58. C 59. C 60. B 【解析】 【导语】本文主要讲述了学习汉语一项挑战。 【57题详解】 细节理解题。根据“In fact, Chinese is not much more difficult than learning any other language. One reason is that Chinese does not require memorizing the kind of complex tenses (时态) like European languages.”可知，作者认为中文不难学的一个原因是汉语不需要像欧洲语言那样记住复杂的时态。故选B。 【58题详解】 细节理解题。根据“The language continues developing.”可知，语言在不断发展。故选C。 【59题详解】 细节理解题。根据“I hope that one day more Chinese courses are able to be connected with ‘real’ spoken Chinese and the way in which Chinese people speak daily.”可知，如果想学好汉语，应该把更多的汉语课程与“真正的”汉语口语和中国人日常说话的方式联系起来。故选C。 【60题详解】 推理判断题。根据“Learning Chinese is a challenging but good experience”可知，学习汉语是一个挑战。故选B。 Ⅴ. 口语应用。（每小题1分，共5分） 从所给的句子中选择恰当的句子完成下面的对话（有两个多余的选项）。 (Peter meets a young man on Green Street at 8:00 p.m.) A: Excuse me. ____61____ B: Sure.

My grandma can speak several languages well. It made me interested in language learning at the age of nine. So I learned Italian when I was ten. My grandma moved from Switzerland to England when she was young. I was always surprised that she spoke English to me, Italian to my grandpa and French or German on the phone to her relatives and friends. What was more, she learned English by herself when she came to England. As for me, although I can speak some Italian and German, I only know a little grammar and sometimes get confused (困惑的). So it’s hard for me to understand how someone can speak several languages so well. I want to know how my grandma did it! English is an international language. More and more people in the world speak English. I hardly use other languages in my own job. However, I think being able to order dishes in a restaurant in a non-English speaking country will be great. In fact, language learning is easier now than before. New technology is the reason. For example, recording your voice helps you see how well you’re doing and helps you continue to improve. There are apps to help you learn new words. However, I still think going to classes improves conversation skills quickly. So it’s better to combine (结合) methods. 66. Was Bob interested in language learning when he was ten? ______________________________________________________ 67. How did Bob’s grandma learn English when she came to England? ______________________________________________________ 68.

She had moved into a nursing home and didn't have room for extra things. She insisted that she didn't need any gift. Finally, I came up with an idea. In her birthday card, I sent her a gift certificate(礼券)for "A letter a week for the next year!" It was a big promise. I've never been much of a letter writer, but now I was living far from home, and should be able to find plenty of news. Growing up just a mile from my grandparents, we'd always been close. I knew that she'd love to hear what was going on in my life. The letter gift certificate was a big hit. She got fifty-two letters that first year. All showed her that I was thinking of her regularly. As her next birthday rolled around, she asked for another letter gift certificate. In fact, for nine and a half years I wrote about the cold Michigan winters. Then I wrote about my pregnancy(怀孕). During the kids' preschool years, I shared every funny thing they did and said, and as they grew they started adding "picture letters" to the envelope. Once I flew home to visit Grandma and found that all the staff in the nursing home knew the details of my life, as they often read letters to her. My last letter arrived the day after her death. I never missed a letter and I felt I had given her the best gift I could. What I hadn't counted on was how her gift would come full circle to me. Months later, while going through her things, my dad found a box full of letters from me. Those letters are a journal of my life, filled with moment and pictures I had completely forgotten. But Grandma saved those memories for me in my letters. Life really does fly by. Loved ones come and go. But sometimes our gifts to others come back to us in unexpected ways.

According to a latest study, Chinese people generally prefer local brands to foreign brands. They choose the local brands because of the low price, good quality (质量) and creative design. Some Chinese brands have risen in these years. They have even started to win some fans abroad. A research showed that 71 percent of customers said Chinese brands were important to them. Chinese brands like Huawei, Xiaomi, DJI, Feiyue, Li-Ning, Shein and Huaxizi have all become more popular abroad. For example, Huawei is the world’s second-biggest mobile phone company. Its products are used in more than 170 countries and areas. Huawei is also a leader in 5G technology. Shein, a “fast fashion” brand, made more than 10 billion dollars last year, a 100-percent increase over 2019, Global Times reported. Many European people like Shein products because they’re affordable, fashionable and of high quality. In the future, Chinese brands will continue to develop. Thanks to a bigger market, improved supply chains (供应链) and efficient (高效的) producing, “This is the best time for the development of local brands,” Yan Qiang, a partner with Beijing-based Hejun Consulting, told Global Times. 53.

How to Choose a Chinese Brand B. Chinese Brands Becoming Popular C. How to Develop Chinese Brands D. The Future for Chinese Brands E Learning Chinese is a challenging but good experience as it gives you the opportunity to communicate with more than a billion people. Foreigners think Chinese is a mysterious (神秘的) and difficult language because it is very different from the Roman alphabet (罗马字母). In fact, Chinese is not much more difficult than learning any other language. One reason is that Chinese does not require memorizing the kind of complex tenses (时态) like European languages. Although it is certainly not easy for foreigners, in my experience you can learn Chinese fast. You will certainly find differences between the language in textbooks and people’s everyday speech. One example of this is the difference between languages on the street and written Chinese. It produces new phrases and vocabulary. In real life nowadays, people often use short, less conversational phrases to communicate with each other. China has many provinces and their dialects are different. After you learn and understand the Beijing dialect, you may find it is hard to understand Shanghai dialect. The language continues developing. So it is still not easy for learners, no matter how well they learn from textbooks. I hope that one day more Chinese courses are able to be connected with “real” spoken Chinese and the way in which Chinese people speak daily. It will help foreign learners to help bridge the gap between learners and native (本土的) speakers. 57. According to the passage, why does the writer think Chinese is not so difficult to learn? A It gives you the opportunity to communicate with more than a billion people. B. It doesn’t require memorizing the kind of complex tenses. C. It is very different from the Roman alphabet. D. You can find Chinese courses very easily. 58. According to the passage, which sentence may agree with the writer’s idea? A. Chinese is more difficult to learn than any other language. B. People often use long sentences in the real life nowadays. C. The development of language is still going on. D. Foreign learners don’t have to connect Chinese courses with “real” spoken Chinese. 59. According to paragraph 5, what should you do if you want to learn Chinese well? A. Learn some dialects in Chinese daily life. B. Learn written Chinese in Chinese daily life. C. Learn real spoken Chinese in Chinese daily life. D. Learn complex tenses in Chinese daily life. 60. What can we infer (推断) from the text? A. It is too difficult to learn Chinese. B. It is challenging to learn Chinese. C. It is important to learn Chinese well. D. It is necessary to learn Chinese.

My grandma can speak several languages well. It made me interested in language learning at the age of nine. So I learned Italian when I was ten. My grandma moved from Switzerland to England when she was young. I was always surprised that she spoke English to me, Italian to my grandpa and French or German on the phone to her relatives and friends. What was more, she learned English by herself when she came to England. As for me, although I can speak some Italian and German, I only know a little grammar and sometimes get confused (困惑的). So it’s hard for me to understand how someone can speak several languages so well. I want to know how my grandma did it! English is an international language. More and more people in the world speak English. I hardly use other languages in my own job. However, I think being able to order dishes in a restaurant in a non-English speaking country will be great. In fact, language learning is easier now than before. New technology is the reason. For example, recording your voice helps you see how well you’re doing and helps you continue to improve. There are apps to help you learn new words. However, I still think going to classes improves conversation skills quickly. So it’s better to combine (结合) methods. 66.
