A．¥80 B．¥120 C．¥160 D．¥240 B As Daddy’s only daughter, I knew what made my Daddy more wonderful than all the other fathers, I’d ever seen or heard of — his large hands. Daddy had long smart fingers (指头) that could make lots of paper toys for me to play with. His hands could tie my hair beautifully. That’s why I felt happy when the other students talked about my hairstyle. I kept it to myself for years. His hands could paint a second-band bike to look new. I got one on my tenth birthday. His hands could cook a delicious and colorful meal in minutes. I was always interested in watching his hands work. Even as I grew hungrier, I felt happy watching his hands. Daddy’s creative hands were also useful and hard-working. They could fly a kite high in the sky as well as to get it down from the top of a tree. They could wash my white dress clean, which became my favorite one. To my surprise, those hands fed seven children after Mom died. It was his feelings that showed what he really was, far more than his abilities. Not only were Daddy’s hands great, they could also send me a note full of love. When I was ill, he made me feel better. He would take a small blanket (毯子), warm it up and cover it around my small cold feet with his loving hands. They seemed to understand I was feeling terrible before I could cry. When I was worried about something, Daddy would often hand me a cup of hot milk and sat next to me. He would say, “The best is always to come, my dear.” The more I read Daddy’s hands, the more stories I get from them. Daddy’s hands were fantastic. They had the knowledge (知识) and power to move mountains. They made the impossible possible. 59．The underlined word “one” in Paragraph 2 refers to ________. A．The father’s hand B．a bike C．a meal D．my hairstyle 60．Daddy’s useful and hardworking hands did the things EXCEPT (除了) ________.

A．Daddy had enough knowledge to write stories to us. B．What Daddy did really touched my heart. C．Daddy had a lot of knowledge to move mountains. D．Daddy’s hands were strong enough to do move mountains. 62．Which of the following shows the structure of the passage? A． B． C． D． C In February 2024, in London, a group of dancers performed a Chinese folk dance to celebrate Chinese New Year. They wanted to share their culture and give people a special experience. The dancers had colorful faces and each held two short sticks. With the loud sound of drums, gongs, and shouts, the dancers walked and danced, swinging the sticks. The sixteen dancers that performed in London came from the Chaoshan region of South China's Guangdong Province. They wanted to spread wishes of good luck in the Year of the Loong to people in the United Kingdom. "The performance is exciting. I feel like it has woken everybody up in the arcade," said Trupti Shah, commercial director of the Burlington Arcade. The Puning Yingge dance, which is classified （将……归类）as a national intangible cultural heritage （非物质文化遗产） in China, dates back to the Ming Dynasty and is considered the dance of warriors because of its close association （联系） with the famous Chinese novel called Water Margin（水浒）, which is about brave heroes. Chen Laifa, leader of the performers, explained that the dance combines opera, dance, and martial arts to show the fighting spirit of the characters in the novel. And it is usually performed during traditional Chinese festivals and is seen as a symbol of good defeating evil （邪恶） and bringing peace. "We would like to spread this spirit to the British people and, at the same time, promote our own culture," Chen said. 63.Why did the 16 dancers perform the Puning Yingge dance in London? A. Because they wanted to paint colorful faces to show their beauty. B. Because they would like to become warriors in London. C. Because they would like to make noise with drums. D. Because they wanted to celebrate the Spring Festival and share their culture. 64. Trupti Shah's words in Paragraph 4 show_______. A. the dance brought good luck to English people B. the Puning Yingge dance showed the culture of China C.people there liked the Puning Yingge dance a lot D. he would learn the Puning Yingge dance in China 65. What's the meaning of the underlined word "warriors" in Chinese? A.学者 B.艺术家 C.勇士 D.作家 66. The passage may come from ________. A. a sports newspaper B. a news report C. a science magazine D. a short novel D You must have heard of "city bu city" (meaning city or not city), an internet buzzword(流行语) created by foreign blogger Baobaoxiong. It's used to ask if a place feels like a big, fashionable city. Millions of foreigners like Baobaoxiong are visiting China and posting their travel videos. The visa-free transit policy(免签政策) plays an important role in this trend. Travelers from 54 countries can stay in China for up to six days without a visa as long as they have a travel document and a connecting ticket (联运机票)to leave. The visa-free transit policy started in 2013. Back then,it allowed travelers to stay for 72 hours in seven different big cities in China. Now, travelers can stay for 144 hours in 41 places across 19 provincial areas. It has attracted more travelers to China. In the first three months of this year, 266 percent more foreigners came to China through visa-free policies compared with the same period last year, according to the National Immigration Administration of China(国家移民管理局). Seeing is believing. Through this policy, more and more people get to see the real China. "This is the whole reason why we decided to come to China - we wanted to see exactly what it's like for ourselves," said Irish YouTuber Luke in his online video. He thought Chengdu was “incredibly good, beautiful and modern”, totally different from what he had heard about China from Western media（新闻媒体）. Yuyuantantian, a new media account under China Media Group, looked at 100 China travel videos made by foreigners. It found foreigners used to visit famous spots like the Forbidden City and the Great Wall. But now they prefer experiencing everyday activities like shopping at markets,riding shared bikes and joining square dancing in parks. These activities give foreigners a closer look at everyday life in China, said Yuyuantantian. 67. Foreigners who travel through the 144-hour visa-free transit policy need to . A. travel in a group B. stay at least 144 hours in China C. travel in seven big cities in China D. have a connecting ticket to leave within six days 68. What makes the 2024 visa-free policy better than the 2013 policy? A. Longer stay and more traveling places. B. Longer stay and lower cost. C. More activities and lower cost. D. More traveling places and lower cost. 69. Why did Luke decide to travel to China? A. To show the world the real China. B. To shoot videos about China. C. To find the best city in China. D. To see what China is really like. E In a golden field, a lion stands on his back legs, enjoying the warm sunlight. You can also see some birds and a distant tower in the picture. It is called Lion and Beyond, which sounds like "Poetry and Beyond" in Chinese. This heartwarming artwork is just a small part of the imaginative world of Zhang Mingxiang, a 26-year-old artist from a village in Shandong Province, East China. Zhang's artworks are based on things that happen every day and puns （双关语） in Chinese pronunciation. His creative drawings have won over 6million fans on different social media platforms and he has sold more than 60,000 pieces on a video platform（平台）called bilibili. "I believe that today's youths have their own thoughts and are good at expressing themselves. And my artworks serve as encouragement for those who have just started working, providing a channel for emotional expression, *"Zhang said. However, Zhang's path (途径) to art was far from straightforward. He was born in a small village where his father made a living as a barber and by renting out comic books. Zhang's interest in painting came from those comic books. Because of little formal （正规的） art education, some experts would say Zhang's paintings were "not right", which made Zhang think that this path might not be well-suited for him. Later, he decided to use Chinese ink brushes to draw, adding more creativity and vibrancy （活力） to his work, which made him popular online. Zhang's life also got improved by selling paintings. According to him, he could only make a few thousand yuan before his artworks won popularity, but now he is able to make more than 200000 yuan per month. His dream, however, is even bigger. "My goal is to share my work with more people and inspire them with humor（幽默）," Zhang said. 70.How does the writer start the passage? A. By describing a picture. B. By telling a story about a lion. C. By introducing（介绍） a painter. D. By talking about the sun. 71. The meaning of the underlined word "straightforward" is close to "_______". A. hard B. easy C. free D. busy 72. What do we know about Zhang Mingxiang? A. He is a serious painter with many works. B. He is a man who cannot live without painting. C. He wants to make more money for his family by painting. D. He is a young man who has a big dream and tries his best to get it. F Do you have any friends? What do you think of friendship? Here are some opinions from Ann, Pedro, Crystal and Roy. Ann is from Japan. She likes to have friends who really care about her. She thinks a true friend won’t leave her alone when she is in trouble. Besides, she hopes they can teach her English. Pedro comes from Canada. He thinks that friendship means giving. If you want your friends to care about you, you must care about them first. Crystal was born in China. She has the same opinion as Pedro. The real meaning of friendship is giving others something instead of thinking about taking anything back. What about Roy from America? He doesn’t care about the looks of his friends. In his opinion, a sincere（真诚的）heart is more important than looks. If you are in America as Roy, you can write e-mails to him. 73．Which subject isn’t Ann probably good at?（不超过10个词） 74．Who has the same opinion as Crystal?（不超过10 个词） 75．What does Roy think of a good friend? （不超过15个词） 第四部分 写作（共两大题，满分25分） IX. 单词拼写(共5小题；每小题1分，满分5分) 76.

Besides, I am as beautiful as my mother. However, I am more outgoing than my mother. She likes playing the piano, but I prefer to play basketball.   Moreover, what my parents do makes a difference to my life. I was a shy girl when I was young. Then my parents encouraged me to talk a lot in front of others. Also, they advised me to play basketball. Now, I am more outgoing and more active . Nothing can show my love for you, but my heart. I love you, mom and dad. 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
