C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者暑假期间通过割草赚钱，后来买了一台汽油割草机，但顾客们更喜欢用他之前的人力割草机，因为它没有噪音和污染。最后作者又回到了使用人力割草机的故事。 【1题详解】 句意：我拿着割草机，在我们附近走来走去，问是否有人想要割草。 watered浇水；cut割；planted种植；grown成长。由“I took our lawn mower”可知，此处表示作者拿着割草机去割草，所以选cut。故选B。 【2题详解】 句意：我们的割草机很旧。 good好的；old旧的；expensive昂贵的；modern现代的。由下文“It wasn’t electric or gas-powered. It was called ‘pushing power’”可知，作者的割草机不是电动的，也不是汽油动力的，而是靠人力推动的，所以它是旧的。故选B。 【3题详解】 句意：它被称为“推力”，因为你必须推它才能移动。 though虽然；if如果；while当……时；because因为。由“It was called ‘pushing power’”和“you had to push it to make it move”可知，此处表示因果关系，即因为它必须推才能移动，所以被称为“推力”。故选D。 【4题详解】 句意：在工作了几个星期后，我很快就有了固定的顾客。 months月；minutes分钟；weeks周；hours小时。由“Within about a month”可知，此处表示在几个星期后作者就有了固定的顾客，所以选weeks。故选C。 【5题详解】 句意：我想：“现在我可以更快地工作，赚更多的钱了！” faster更快；later更晚；harder更努力；earlier更早。由“I had enough money to buy a gas-powered mower”可知，作者买了汽油割草机，所以他可以更快地工作，赚更多的钱。故选A。 【6题详解】 句意：你放弃了那台旧的手动割草机吗？ picked up捡起；searched for寻找；gave up放弃；turned off关闭。由下文“I explained that it was such hard work using a human-powered mower”可知，作者向女士解释了使用人力割草机很辛苦，由此可知此处女士是问作者是否放弃了那台旧的手动割草机。故选C。 【7题详解】 句意：你知道，我给你这份工作的原因之一就是因为那台旧割草机。 facts事实；opinions观点；suggestions建议；reasons原因。由“I gave you the job was because of that old lawn mower”可知，此处表示女士给作者这份工作的原因之一就是因为那台旧割草机，所以选reasons。故选D。 【8题详解】 句意：它不会污染空气，也不会发出很大的噪音。 harm伤害；pollute污染；clean打扫；change改变。由“it doesn’t make a big noise”和“I’ll let you cut my grass if you use that old mower”可知，此处表示旧割草机不会污染空气，也不会发出噪音，所以女士才让作者用旧割草机给她割草。故选B。 【9题详解】 句意：我很惊讶。 happy高兴的；interested感兴趣的；worried担心的；surprised惊讶的。由“I’ll have to come back later with the old one”可知，作者没想到女士会因为旧割草机没有噪音和污染而让他继续使用，所以他感到惊讶。故选D。 【10题详解】 句意：那天我把汽油割草机带回了商店。 house房子；yard院子；store商店；lawn草坪。由上文“I thought, ‘Now I can do the work faster and make more money!’”和“She looked disappointed”可知，作者原本以为买了汽油割草机可以更快地工作赚更多的钱，但没想到顾客们更喜欢旧的手动割草机，所以他把汽油割草机带回了商店。故选C。 三、阅读理解（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分） 请认真阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 A THE SOCCER DLARIES by Tom Palmer Publisher: Rebellion (May 7, 2024) Paperback, $8.99 Rocky Race is a British teen in a whole new world, as she moves to the USA to follow her football dreams and takes on American High School.

When they arrived, there were already many adults and their children playing in the park. When the son saw the sky filled with colorful kites in different shapes, he was excited and wanted to get one too. His father agreed to buy one for him. So they went to a kite shop and chose a beautiful one. With the string (线) in hand, the son started to fly the kite. Soon, the kite was high up in the sky. After a while, the son said, “Father, it seems that the string is stopping the kite from flying higher. If we cut it, it will be free and fly even higher. Can we cut it?” The father didn’t reply, but just cut the string off the reel (绕轴). Suddenly, the kite began to go higher, which made the son much happier. However, to his surprise, the kite was coming down. They waited for quite some time. Slowly, it fell onto the grass. The son felt upset and asked, “I thought that after cutting the string, the kite would fly higher. Why did it fall down?” The father smiled and said, “The role of the string was not stopping the kite from flying higher, but helping it stay in the sky, because the kite itself can’t fly up.” By using the string you help the kite go up in the right direction. When you cut the string, it could not support the kite. In our life, we may sometimes feel like there are certain things that are holding us back and stopping us from growing. But in fact, these might be the things that support us most. We can really grow up and become stronger by realizing the importance of these things. 14. Why did the father and son go to the park? A. To make a kite. B. To watch others fly kites. C. To attend a kite flying festival. D. To play with other children. 15. What did the son think the string was doing to the kite? A. Helping it fly higher. B. Stopping it from flying higher. C. Making it more beautiful. D. Keeping it from falling down. 16. Why did the kite fall down after the string was cut? A. Because there was no wind. B. Because it was too heavy. C. Because the string was needed to support it. D. Because the son didn’t fly it properly. 17. What might the writer of this story want to tell us? A. Kites need strings to fly high in the sky. B. We should always listen to our parents. C. Some things seem to hold us back but help us. D. Flying kites is not an easy activity. 【答案】14. C 15. B 16. C 17. C 【解析】 【导语】本文主要讲述父亲按照儿子的要求剪断了风筝线，一开始风筝飞得更高，但是后来风筝就掉下来了。父亲以此告诉孩子，有些东西看似阻碍了我们，但是正是这些东西支撑着我们前进。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据“One day, a father and his son went to a kite flying festival.”可知一位父亲和他的儿子去参加风筝节。故选C。 【15题详解】 细节理解题。根据“Father, it seems that the string is stopping the kite from flying higher. ”可知儿子认为绳子似乎阻止了风筝飞得更高。故选B。 【16题详解】 细节理解题。根据“The role of the string was not stopping the kite from flying higher, but helping it stay in the sky, because the kite itself can’t fly up”可知绳子的作用不是阻止风筝飞得更高时，而是帮助它留在天空中，因为风筝本身不能飞起来，所以因为没有绳子的支撑，所以风筝掉了下来。故选C。 【17题详解】 推理判断题。根据“In our life, we may sometimes feel like there are certain things that are holding us back and stopping us from growing. But in fact, these might be the things that support us most.”可知在我们的生活中，我们有时会觉得有些事情阻碍了我们的成长，但事实上，这些可能是最支持我们的东西。故选C。 C A new study has found that people who use facial (面部的) expressions often are more popular and better at negotiating. Negotiating means discussing something with others to reach an agreement. At Nottingham Trent University in England, researchers studied more than 1,500 conversations between people. They set up video calls to record people’s natural reactions and expressions. They used a system called FACS to measure how expressive people’s faces were. Then, they showed the recordings to 170 people and asked them to rate (评定等级) the popularity of the people in the videos from their facial expressions. In another part of the study, researchers recorded video conversations between 1,456 strangers and studied their expressions. On average (平均), people made 71 facial movements per minute. After the conversations, the people who had been talking to each other had to rate how much they liked each other. The results showed that those with more expressive faces were more liked by their conversation partners. During the conversations, the people were also given a negotiation task. The more expressive people usually got better results. The researchers believe that using facial expressions makes people look more friendly and helps them connect with others. They also think that being expressive is important for solving disagreements successfully. Professor Bridget Waller, who worked on the study, said the research may explain why humans have developed more complex (复杂的) facial expressions than other animals. Waller added that facial expressions are not just to show feelings, but also a way of communicating alongside words. 18. The researchers at Nottingham Trent University studied people’s facial expressions by ______. A. asking people to fill out surveys B. watching people carefully in person C. using a computer program D. using a video recording system 19. What did the results of the study show about people with more expressive faces? A. They were usually more popular among conversation partners. B. They were usually less liked by their conversation partners. C. They usually got worse results during the negotiation task. D. They were likely to talk more about the task than other people. 20. What do facial expressions mean by Professor Bridget Waller? A. They are the only way humans communicate. B. They are more complex in humans than in other animals. C. They are more important than words in communication. D. They are used mainly to show people’s feelings. 21. What’s the passage mainly about? A. Facial Expressions Win Friends. B. The Power of Words in Negotiation. C. Facial Expressions Across Cultures. D. Complex Facial Expressions in Humans. 【答案】18. D 19. A 20. B 21. A 【解析】 【导语】本文主要介绍了一项关于面部表情如何影响人际互动和谈判效果的研究，研究结果表明面部表情丰富的人更受欢迎，并在谈判中表现更佳。 【18题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段“At Nottingham Trent University in England, researchers studied more than 1,500 conversations between people. They set up video calls to record people’s natural reactions and expressions.”可知，英国诺丁汉特伦特大学的研究人员通过视频录制系统研究了人们的面部表情。故选D。 【19题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第三段“The results showed that those with more expressive faces were more liked by their conversation partners.”可知，研究结果表明，面部表情更丰富的人在交谈伙伴中更受欢迎。故选A。 【20题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“Professor Bridget Waller, who worked on the study, said the research may explain why humans have developed more complex (复杂的) facial expressions than other animals. Waller added that facial expressions are not just to show feelings, but also a way of communicating alongside words.”可知，Bridget Waller教授认为，面部表情不仅仅是表达情感，还是一种与言语并行的交流方式，而人类拥有比其他动物更复杂的面部表情。故选B。 【21题详解】 主旨大意题。根据文章第一段“A new study has found that people who use facial (面部的) expressions often are more popular and better at negotiating.”可知，文章主要介绍了研究发现使用面部表情的人更受欢迎且更擅长谈判，即面部表情能够赢得朋友。故选A。 D “Sarah, dear, time to get out of bed,” Mr. Hartwell said, poking his head through the bedroom doorway. “You don’t want to miss the first day at your new school, do you?” “I’m not going,” said Sarah, and pulled the covers over her head. “Of course you’re going, honey,” said Mr. Hartwel. “No, I’m not. I don’t want to start over again. I hate my new school,” Sarah said. She tunneled down to the end of her bed. “How can you hate your new school?” Mr. Hartwell chuckled (咯咯地笑). “You’ve never been there before! Don’t worry. You liked your other school, you’ll like this one. Besides, just think of all the new friends you’ll meet.” “That’s just it. I don’t know anybody, and it will be hard, and ... I just hate it, that’s all.” “What will everyone think if you aren’t there? We told them you were coming!” “They will think that I am lucky and they will wish that they were at home in bed like me.” Mr. Hartwell sighed. “Sarah Jane Hartwell, I’m not playing this silly game one second longer. I’ll see you downstairs in five minutes.” Then Sarah got out of bed. She put on her clothes. “My head hurts,” she moaned (呻吟) as she trudged into the kitchen. Mr. Hartwell handed Sarah a piece of toast and her lunchbox. They walked to the car. Sarah’s hands were cold. They drove down the street. She couldn’t breathe. And then they were there. “I feel sick,” said Sarah weakly. “You’ll love your new school once you get started. Oh, look. There’s your headmaster, Mrs. Burton.” said Mr. Hartwell. “Oh, Sarah,” Mrs. Burton said. “There you are. Come on. I’ll show you where to go.” She led Sarah into the building and walked quickly through the crowded hallways. “Don’t worry. Everyone is nervous the first day,” she said over her shoulder as Sarah rushed to keep up. When they got to the classroom, most of the children were already in their seats. The class looked up as Mrs. Burton cleared her throat. “Class. Class. Attention, please,” said Mrs. Burton. When the class was quiet, she led Sarah to the front of the room and said, “Class, I would like you to meet your new teacher, Mrs. Sarah Jane Hartwell.” 22. What is the main reason Sarah does not want to go to her new school? A. She doesn’t like her new teacher. B. She has a headache. C. She doesn’t know anyone at the school. D.

Run quickly and happily. B. Walk slowly and heavily. C. Jump excitedly and cheerfully. D. Run quickly and nervously. 25. What can be the best title of this article? A. A strict father B. A new teacher C. Sarah’s new school D. First day nervousness 【答案】22. C 23. B 24. B 25. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇叙事文，讲述了Sarah对于新学校的第一天感到非常紧张和恐惧，以及她的父亲Mr. Hartwell如何鼓励她去面对新环境的故事。文章通过Sarah的内心独白和与父亲的对话，展现了孩子们面对新环境时的普遍心理状态。 【22题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第四段“That’s just it. I don’t know anybody, and it will be hard, and ... I just hate it, that’s all.”可知，Sarah不想去新学校的主要原因是她不认识任何人，觉得会很难适应。故选C。 【23题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第五段“Sarah Jane Hartwell, I’m not playing this silly game one second longer. I’ll see you downstairs in five minutes.”可知，Hartwell先生已经对Sarah的借口感到厌倦了，他不想再玩这种愚蠢的游戏了。故选B。 【24题详解】 词句猜测题。根据文章第七段“My head hurts,” she moaned (呻吟) as she trudged into the kitchen.”可知，Sarah在走进厨房时呻吟着说头疼，结合语境可推知trudged的意思是“缓慢而沉重地走”。故选B。 【25题详解】 最佳标题题。文章主要讲述了Sarah在第一天去新学校时的紧张心情，包括她不想去学校的原因、在父亲的要求下勉强去学校的过程以及到学校后的紧张表现。因此，选项D“第一天的紧张”最能概括文章主旨，是正确答案。故选D。 四、信息还原（共5小题；每小题1分，满分5分） 请认真阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Nearly everyone is shy in some ways. Some are born shy while others become shy because of too much unhappiness. ____26____ They may always wonder: What kind of impression am I making? Do the people around like me? Am I wearing unfashionable clothes? Since shyness makes people feel uncomfortable, why not try to overcome (克服) it? ____27____ Keep a diary to find out the cause of your fears. By writing down your thoughts and fears, you can know more about yourself. ____28____ For example, if you’re going to a party, you’d better find out who will be there and what they will do.

Excited, yet nervous, she carefully carried a pork steak (猪排) to Table 6. Her excitement quickly turned to anxiety (焦虑) when she saw Kassy, a popular girl from school, sitting there with her friends. Feeling shy and afraid, Judy ducked (弯下身) behind the front desk to avoid being seen. Though an excellent student, Judy often felt out of place among her rich classmates. She remembered how Kassy used to laugh at her and worried that others might do the same to her for working at a restaurant. When Judy’s dad found her hiding, she didn’t know what to say. He suggested that she should take a break. Turning back to the kitchen, Judy felt bad for letting her dad down. To her surprise, Mary, one of Kassy’s friends, came over and said that she knew how mean (刻薄的) Kassy could be. She also praised Judy for her hard work. This gave Judy the strength she needed. With confidence, Judy returned to the dining area and brought the bill to Kassy’s table. When Kassy tried to make fun of her, Judy and Mary did a silly “crab dance” and laughed together. As she crossed the dining room, Judy realized she didn’t feel embarrassed (尴尬的). Whether Kassy liked her family’s restaurant or not, it didn’t matter. As Judy returned to the front desk, she felt a warm sense of pride, knowing the restaurant was special to her, no matter what others thought. She understood that hard work and kindness were what really mattered. From then on, she started to enjoy her new role with confidence and pride. 54. How did Judy feel when she saw her classmates at Table 6? _______________________________________________ 55. What made Judy become confident? _____________________________________________ 56. What did Judy learn from this experience? What did she do from then on? _____________________________________________ 【答案】54. She felt shy and afraid. 55. Mary came over and said Kassy was mean. She also praised Judy for her hard work. 56. She understood that hard work and kindness were what really mattered. She started to enjoy serving customers with confidence and pride. (合理即可) 【解析】 【导语】本文主要是关于Judy在父亲的餐厅工作时克服对同学嘲笑和批评的恐惧，最终通过同年级同学的支持获得自信和骄傲，并明白努力工作和友善待人更为重要。 【54题详解】 根据“Feeling shy and afraid, Judy ducked (弯下身) behind the front desk to avoid being seen.”可是，Judy在看到同学后感到害羞和害怕。故填She felt shy and afraid. 【55题详解】 根据“Mary, one of Kassy’s friends, came over and said that she knew how mean (刻薄的) Kassy could be. She also praised Judy for her hard work. This gave Judy the strength she needed.”可知，Judy的同班同学Mary在发现Judy的情绪后，给与安慰和赞扬，这让Mary恢复了自信。故填Mary came over and said Kassy was mean. She also praised Judy for her hard work. 【56题详解】 根据“She understood that hard work and kindness were what really mattered. From then on, she started to enjoy her new role with confidence and pride.”可知，从这件事情中，Judy明白努力工作和善良是最重要的事，并且从那开始，她充满自信和自豪地享受自己的新角色。故填She understood that hard work and kindness were what really mattered. She started to enjoy serving customers with confidence and pride. 八、书面表达（共1题；满分25分） 57. 在成长过程中，我们难免会遇到许多问题， 希望得到帮助或指引，与他人沟通是解决问题的方法之一。请分享一次你通过与父母、老师或朋友沟通以解决问题的经历，并谈谈你的感悟。 内容包括： 1.沟通的重要性； 2.你的一次沟通经历； 3.你的感悟。 要求： 1.词数：100左右（开头已给出，不计入总词数）； 2.内容完整（照抄阅读语篇不得分）； 3.文中不得出现与考生相关真实校名和姓名等信息。 Communication is very important in our daily life. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】例文 Communication is very important in our daily life.

When they arrived, there were already many adults and their children playing in the park. When the son saw the sky filled with colorful kites in different shapes, he was excited and wanted to get one too. His father agreed to buy one for him. So they went to a kite shop and chose a beautiful one. With the string (线) in hand, the son started to fly the kite. Soon, the kite was high up in the sky. After a while, the son said, “Father, it seems that the string is stopping the kite from flying higher. If we cut it, it will be free and fly even higher. Can we cut it?” The father didn’t reply, but just cut the string off the reel (绕轴). Suddenly, the kite began to go higher, which made the son much happier. However, to his surprise, the kite was coming down. They waited for quite some time. Slowly, it fell onto the grass. The son felt upset and asked, “I thought that after cutting the string, the kite would fly higher. Why did it fall down?” The father smiled and said, “The role of the string was not stopping the kite from flying higher, but helping it stay in the sky, because the kite itself can’t fly up.” By using the string you help the kite go up in the right direction. When you cut the string, it could not support the kite. In our life, we may sometimes feel like there are certain things that are holding us back and stopping us from growing. But in fact, these might be the things that support us most. We can really grow up and become stronger by realizing the importance of these things. 14. Why did the father and son go to the park? A. To make a kite. B. To watch others fly kites. C. To attend a kite flying festival. D. To play with other children. 15. What did the son think the string was doing to the kite? A. Helping it fly higher. B. Stopping it from flying higher. C. Making it more beautiful. D. Keeping it from falling down. 16. Why did the kite fall down after the string was cut? A. Because there was no wind. B. Because it was too heavy. C. Because the string was needed to support it. D. Because the son didn’t fly it properly. 17. What might the writer of this story want to tell us? A. Kites need strings to fly high in the sky. B. We should always listen to our parents. C. Some things seem to hold us back but help us. D. Flying kites is not an easy activity. C A new study has found that people who use facial (面部的) expressions often are more popular and better at negotiating. Negotiating means discussing something with others to reach an agreement. At Nottingham Trent University in England, researchers studied more than 1,500 conversations between people. They set up video calls to record people’s natural reactions and expressions. They used a system called FACS to measure how expressive people’s faces were. Then, they showed the recordings to 170 people and asked them to rate (评定等级) the popularity of the people in the videos from their facial expressions. In another part of the study, researchers recorded video conversations between 1,456 strangers and studied their expressions. On average (平均), people made 71 facial movements per minute. After the conversations, the people who had been talking to each other had to rate how much they liked each other. The results showed that those with more expressive faces were more liked by their conversation partners. During the conversations, the people were also given a negotiation task. The more expressive people usually got better results. The researchers believe that using facial expressions makes people look more friendly and helps them connect with others. They also think that being expressive is important for solving disagreements successfully. Professor Bridget Waller, who worked on the study, said the research may explain why humans have developed more complex (复杂的) facial expressions than other animals. Waller added that facial expressions are not just to show feelings, but also a way of communicating alongside words. 18. The researchers at Nottingham Trent University studied people’s facial expressions by ______. A. asking people to fill out surveys B. watching people carefully in person C. using a computer program D. using a video recording system 19. What did the results of the study show about people with more expressive faces? A. They were usually more popular among conversation partners. B. They were usually less liked by their conversation partners. C. They usually got worse results during the negotiation task. D. They were likely to talk more about the task than other people. 20 What do facial expressions mean by Professor Bridget Waller? A. They are the only way humans communicate. B. They are more complex in humans than in other animals. C. They are more important than words in communication. D. They are used mainly to show people’s feelings. 21 What’s the passage mainly about? A. Facial Expressions Win Friends. B. The Power of Words in Negotiation. C. Facial Expressions Across Cultures. D. Complex Facial Expressions in Humans. D “Sarah, dear, time to get out of bed,” Mr. Hartwell said, poking his head through the bedroom doorway. “You don’t want to miss the first day at your new school, do you?” “I’m not going,” said Sarah, and pulled the covers over her head. “Of course you’re going, honey,” said Mr. Hartwel. “No, I’m not. I don’t want to start over again. I hate my new school,” Sarah said. She tunneled down to the end of her bed. “How can you hate your new school?” Mr. Hartwell chuckled (咯咯地笑). “You’ve never been there before! Don’t worry. You liked your other school, you’ll like this one. Besides, just think of all the new friends you’ll meet.” “That’s just it. I don’t know anybody, and it will be hard, and ...

I’ll show you where to go.” She led Sarah into the building and walked quickly through the crowded hallways. “Don’t worry. Everyone is nervous the first day,” she said over her shoulder as Sarah rushed to keep up. When they got to the classroom, most of the children were already in their seats. The class looked up as Mrs. Burton cleared her throat. “Class. Class. Attention, please,” said Mrs. Burton. When the class was quiet, she led Sarah to the front of the room and said, “Class, I would like you to meet your new teacher, Mrs. Sarah Jane Hartwell.” 22.

Feeling shy and afraid, Judy ducked (弯下身) behind the front desk to avoid being seen. Though an excellent student Judy often felt out of place among her rich classmates.

He suggested that she should take a break. Turning back to the kitchen, Judy felt bad for letting her dad down. To her surprise, Mary, one of Kassy’s friends, came over and said that she knew how mean (刻薄的) Kassy could be. She also praised Judy for her hard work. This gave Judy the strength she needed. With confidence, Judy returned to the dining area and brought the bill to Kassy’s table. When Kassy tried to make fun of her, Judy and Mary did a silly “crab dance” and laughed together. As she crossed the dining room, Judy realized she didn’t feel embarrassed (尴尬的). Whether Kassy liked her family’s restaurant or not, it didn’t matter. As Judy returned to the front desk, she felt a warm sense of pride, knowing the restaurant was special to her, no matter what others thought.
