Through the project, Jahkil looks to raise awareness for reducing homelessness in Chicago and beyond. Even at a very tender age, his deeds already drew the recognition of former U. S. President Barack Obama in 2017. Jahkil also pushes to motivate and influence fellow kids to get more active and useful in their communities. When he was five years old, Jahkil assisted his aunt in distributing food to the homeless in Chicago. Then the little boy was unhappy to find out that people could not afford a home. He was always eager to find out how he could offer help to people. And he would be mad for not being able to give money to anyone asking for help on the streets. He was determined to help the homeless in every way he could. That strong desire later gave birth to the Project I Am, his nonprofit organization, which focused on helping the homeless people. He founded it at the age of eight, and has since then never looked back on his journey of charity. Through Project I Am, Jahkil Jackson reaches out to the homeless by distributing “Blessing bags”. Provided in the blessing bags are diverse kinds of materials to help the needy, including wipes, hand sanitizers, toothbrushes, toothpaste, socks, bottled water, among other things. Jahkil Jackson is also one of the key workers in Dream for Kids, another nonprofit organization founded by Tom Tuohy, a social entrepreneur. Jahkil met with Tuohy at a Holiday for Hope event organized by the Dream for Kids.

In contrast to rushing past overcrowded tourist landmarks, the new trend has emerged as a popular alternative to explore bustling markets, ancient streets, and charming alleys at a leisurely pace. The appeal of Citywalk caters particularly to the younger generation often caught up in demanding work schedules. As evidenced by the increasing popularity of hash tags like “City walk for vacation” on lifestyle sharing platform Xiaohong shu, with a staggering 465 million views and nearly 464, 600 engagements, the trend is truly capturing unbelievable attention. Citywalk, or meandering through the urban landscapes, means the act of walking freely along city streets unburdened by exhaustive plans. It offers people an avenue to intimately experience urban culture and local traditions. Citywalk is not merely about sightseeing. It creates an opportunity for social interactions and deep connections with the cities. Citywalk routes are tailored to the specific interests of both out-of-town tourists and locals. For tourists, the focus is on sharing local customs and traditions, while for locals, discussions revolve around the city’s past, present, and future. The growing trend of Citywalk reflects a changing attitude towards life, embracing a warmer, more relaxed, and slower-paced lifestyle. As Citywalk expands beyond first-tier cities like Beijing, Shanghai, and Guangzhou, to second-and third-tier cities across the county, it brings fresh opportunities for the tourism industry, in such areas as dining, shopping, and accommodation. Governments in Beijing and Shandong have recognized the potential of Citywalk, incorporating it into their action plans to promote cultural tourism and leisure activities. In Shanghai, public bus lines specially designed have been introduced to elevate the overall Citywalk for participants. “By slowing down and delving into the narrow alleys, observing the lives of city residents, and immersing oneself in the context of museums and art galleries, one is entitled to embrace the pleasure of life,” said Luo Jun, a cultural tourism enthusiast. 23. What’s the main reason for the popularity of Citywalk among young people? A. It mainly focuses on urban sightseeing. B. Social media offer many tempting videos. C. Busywork schedule limits the choice of people. D. Conventional tourist landmarks are losing charm. 24. What’s the meaning of underlined word “staggering” in the second paragraph? A. Astonishing. B. Rewarding. C. Embarrassing. D. Shrinking. 25. Which of the following statements is NOT Citywalk? A. An immersive route for foreigners to enjoy the alleys in Chengdu. B. A holiday travel to hurriedly visit crowded landmarks in Shanghai. C. A free walk including visiting museums and old towns in Qingdao. D. A leisurely tour along Qiantang River to experience city transformation. 26. What have some governments done to promote Citywalk? A. Facilities in the museums have been enhanced. B. Cooperation has been strengthened among cities. C. Opportunities have been offered to third-tier cities. D. Specific public transportation routes have been introduced. 【答案】23. C 24. A 25. B 26. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇新闻报道。文章报道了沉浸式的慢节奏城市漫步正在中国成为一种时尚。 【23题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“The appeal of Citywalk caters particularly to the younger generation often caught up in demanding work schedules. (城市漫步的吸引力尤其迎合了经常被繁忙的工作日程所困的年轻一代。)”可知，城市漫步在年轻人中流行的主要原因是繁忙的工作日程限制了人们的选择。故选C项。 【24题详解】 词句猜测题。划线词句后半部分“the trend is truly capturing unbelievable attention (这一趋势确实吸引了令人难以置信的关注)”说明这一趋势引起的广泛关注令人难以置信，从而推知划线部分“As evidenced by the increasing popularity of hash tags like ‘City walk for vacation’ on lifestyle sharing platform Xiaohong shu, with a staggering 465 million views and nearly 464, 600 engagements(生活方式分享平台小红书上的‘城市漫步度假’等标签越来越受欢迎，阅读量达到了staggering 4.65亿次，参与量接近46.64万次)”其中划线词汇意思是“难以置信的，令人惊讶的”。故选A项。 【25题详解】 推理判断题。通读全文，并根据第一段“An immersive and slow-paced Citywalk is becoming trendy across China. In contrast to rushing past overcrowded tourist landmarks, the new trend has emerged as a popular alternative to explore bustling markets, ancient streets, and charming alleys at a leisurely pace. (沉浸式慢节奏城市漫步正在中国成为一种时尚。与匆匆走过拥挤的旅游地标不同，这种新趋势已经成为一种流行的选择，人们可以悠闲地探索繁华的市场、古老的街道和迷人的小巷。)”可知，城市漫步不包括“匆忙游览上海拥挤的地标的假日旅行”。故选B项。 【26题详解】 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中“In Shanghai, public bus lines specially designed have been introduced to elevate the overall Citywalk for participants. (在上海，专门设计的公交线路为参与者提升了整个城市漫步。)”可知，一些政府为了促进城市漫步引入了特定的公共交通路线。故选D项。 D Painting one blade of a wind turbine （涡轮机） black could cut bird strikes at wind farms, a study published in the journal Ecology and Evolution suggests. Birds crashing with the structures has long been considered as one of the main negative impacts of onshore wind energy development. In Norway, 6-9 white-tailed eagles are killed annually within the Smøla wind-power plant, which has caused opposition and conflict. The Smøla wind farm is located on the west coast of Norway, consisting of 68 turbines over 18 square kilometers, making it one of the largest onshore wind farms in Norway. Dr May, a senior researcher from the Norwegian Institute for Nature Research in Trondheim, said, “The expectation is that this design reduces so-called motion smear （运动视觉模糊）, making the blades more visible to birds.” Dr May said the concept of reducing the motion smear was based on laboratory experiments carried out in the US at the beginning of the century. The authors of the study observed that the annual death rate was significantly reduced at the turbines with a painted blade by over 70%, relative to the unpainted turbines. According to researchers, the findings were encouraging but further testing at different wind farms was needed in order to make the findings more persuasive. Dr May observed: “Although we found a significant drop in bird collision rates, its effect may well be site -and species-specific. What hasn’t been tested yet, is whether other blade patterns (e. g. red blade tips as used to warn flights) might be equally effective. Martin Harper, the RSPB’s director for conservation, welcomed the research. Meanwhile, a spokesman for manufacturer Siemens Gamesa said the issue was one for developers and operators of wind farms to consider, rather than producers. She said: “Our approach to wind farm development takes account of the local bird population right from the very start.” 27. What is the intention of painting wind turbines? A. To avoid potential collisions B. To beautify the surface of wind turbine. C. To collect more wind energy for turbine. D. To make wind turbine more visible for workers. 28. What does the fourth paragraph imply? A. Painting blades was the top priority. B. The design promoted the motion smear. C. The practice of painting came into effect. D. Painted turbines performed better than unpainted. 29. What is researchers’ attitude towards the findings? A. Doubtful. B. Cautious. C. Indifferent. D. Optimistic. 30. What is the main idea of the passage? A. Increasing the population of birds is the first mission. B. Painting the blades of turbines facilitates the production. C. Constructing a well-functioned farm appeals to more birds. D. Blacking wind turbines contributes to the decrease of birds’ crash. 【答案】27. A 28. C 29. B 30. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是篇说明文。文章主要说明了一项研究表明，将风力涡轮机的一个叶片涂成黑色可以减少风电场鸟的撞击。 【27题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“Painting one blade of a wind turbine （涡轮机） black could cut bird strikes at wind farms, a study published in the journal Ecology and Evolution suggests.(发表在《生态与进化》杂志上的一项研究表明，将风力涡轮机的一个叶片涂成黑色可以减少风电场的鸟击。)”可知，给风力涡轮机涂色的目的是为了避免潜在的鸟的撞击。故选A。 【28题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“The authors of the study observed that the annual death rate was significantly reduced at the turbines with a painted blade by over 70%, relative to the unpainted turbines.(该研究的作者观察到，与未涂色的涡轮机相比，在涂色叶片的涡轮机上的鸟的年死亡率显著降低了70%以上。)”可知，给涡轮机涂色这一行为产生了效果。故选C。 【29题详解】 推理判断题。根据第五段“According to researchers, the findings were encouraging but further testing at different wind farms was needed in order to make the findings more persuasive.(研究人员表示，研究结果令人鼓舞，但为了使研究结果更具说服力，还需要在不同的风力发电场进行进一步的测试。)”可知，研究人员认为还需对研究结果进行进一步的测试，可见持谨慎态度。故选B。 【30题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“Painting one blade of a wind turbine （涡轮机） black could cut bird strikes at wind farms, a study published in the journal Ecology and Evolution suggests.(发表在《生态与进化》杂志上的一项研究表明，将风力涡轮机的一个叶片涂成黑色可以减少风电场鸟的撞击。)”及全文内容可知，本文主要说明了将风力涡轮机的一个叶片涂成黑色可以减少鸟的撞击。故选D。 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。 Cultural intelligence, or cultural quotient (CQ) is the ability to manage cultural diversity. ___31___ It also involves understanding and appreciating cultural differences and being able to adapt to those differences. ___32___ For one thing, it can help you avoid misunderstandings and communication breakdowns with people from other cultures. For another, it enables you to build strong relationships with them. Want to improve your CQ? Try the following tips. If you’re unfamiliar with the culture, chances are you’re not going to adapt well to it.

Simply, you should try to get to know the ways in which that culture forms and influences its people’s values and behavior. Lastly, you need to use what you have learned and come up with a strategy that will help you improve your CQ. You can expose yourself to various media. This is a useful and easily accessible way to learn about how culture affects behavior. Again, it helps if you learn the language of the culture. This may open a whole new world for you. ___35___ A. You should broaden your CQ knowledge. B. There are many benefits of having high CQ. C. To be culturally intelligent is no easy matter. D.

G 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了什么是文商、文商的重要性以及如何提升文商。 【31题详解】 根据上文“Cultural intelligence, or cultural quotient (CQ) is the ability to manage cultural diversity. (文化智商，或称文化商，是指管理文化多样性的能力)”可知，上文提到文化智力或文商是一种应对文化多样性的能力。根据下文“It also involves understanding and appreciating cultural differences and being able to adapt to those differences. (它还包括理解和欣赏文化差异，并能够适应这些差异)”可知，下文提到它还包括理解和欣赏文化差异，并能够适应这些差异。由此可知，空处内容应涉及对文商的阐释。F项“This ability is not limited to your cultural sensitivity and awareness. (这种能力并不局限于你的文化敏感性和意识)”承上启下，符合语境，故选F项。 【32题详解】 根据下文“For one thing, it can help you avoid misunderstandings and communication breakdowns with people from other cultures. For another, it enables you to build strong relationships with them. (首先，它可以帮助你避免与其他文化的人产生误解和沟通障碍。另一方面，它使你能够与他们建立牢固的关系)”可知，空处应能总领这部分内容，且涉及文商的作用或好处。B项“There are many benefits of having high CQ. (拥有高文商有很多好处)”符合语境，故选B项。 【33题详解】 根据上文“If you’re unfamiliar with the culture, chances are you’re not going to adapt well to it. So the first practical aspect of CQ you need to improve is your CQ drive. (如果你不熟悉这种文化，你很可能无法很好地适应它。因此，你需要提高文商的第一个实际方面是你的文商积极性)”可知，上文提到如果你不熟悉这种文化，那么你很可能无法很好地适应它。所以你需要提高的文商的第一个实际方面是你的文商积极性。根据下文“This drive is the first step towards higher CQ that may help you be open to new possibilities. (这是迈向更高文商的第一步，这可能有助于你对新的可能性持开放态度)”可知，空后提到这种积极性是你迈向更高文商的第一步，它可能会帮助你乐于接受新的可能性。由此可知，空处是对CQ drive的进一步解释。D项“This means your motivation to learn about a different culture. (这指的是你学习一种不同文化的动力)”符合语境，故选D项。 【34题详解】 根据上文“After you’ve motivated yourself to get a bit more familiar with the culture, it’s time to go one step further. (在你激励自己更加熟悉当地文化之后，是时候更进一步了)”及下文“Of course, this doesn’t mean you need to become an expert in the said culture. Simply, you should try to get to know the ways in which that culture forms and influences its people’s values and behavior.(当然，这并不意味着你需要成为上述文化方面的专家。简单地说，你应该努力了解这种文化是如何形成和影响人们的价值观和行为的)”可知，空处应点明接下来要做什么，且这种做法与扩充相关知识有关。A项“You should broaden your CQ knowledge. (你应该扩展你的文商知识)”承上启下，符合语境，故选A项。 【35题详解】 根据上文“Lastly, you need to use what you have learned and come up with a strategy that will help you improve your CQ. You can expose yourself to various media. This is a useful and easily accessible way to learn about how culture affects behavior. Again, it helps if you learn the language of the culture. This may open a whole new world for you. (最后，你需要运用你所学到的，想出一个策略来帮助你提高你的文化智商。你可以让自己接触各种媒体。这是了解文化如何影响行为的一种有用且简单的方法。同样，学习当地文化的语言也会有所帮助。这可能会为你打开一个全新的世界)”可知，本段陈述另一个提升文商的方法及好处。由此可知，空处可能会继续介绍学习语言的好处或者结果。G项“It can help you better understand people from other cultures as well. (它也可以帮助你更好地理解来自其他文化的人)”符合语境，故选G项。 第四部分 语言运用 （共两节，满分30分） 第一节 （共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 The doorbell rang one mid-December evening.

Look at the beautiful green sunshine!” She turned to look at it. The rising sun was so beautiful, flooding the earth with warm and red light. However, Jaron’s mom was about to cry. “Oh dear, my poor boy,” she thought. Without delay, the parents rushed Jaron to the hospital for a check- up, which turned out to be color blindness. On that fateful day, Jaron’s parents were shocked to learn that their son was color blind — a condition that affects a person’s ability to see colors in the same way as others. There is no cure, but special glasses can help individuals like Jaron distinguish between different colors. Unfortunately, these glasses are often too expensive for most families to afford. The parents were sad, but Jaron remained calm and even comforted his parents. He saw his condition as something special and decided to keep it a secret. However, his silence caused him to feel left out when others talked about colors. One day, during a class discussion, the teacher, Christina Hayes, asked the students to share a secret about themselves. Working up his courage, Jaron revealed his condition to his classmates, explaining that he saw gray instead of colors like purple, green, and blue. When the teacher asked if there was anything that could help him, Jaron mentioned the special glasses, but noted that they were too expensive for his family.

People from all walks of life contributed generously, touched by Jaron’s bravery and the students’ kindness. In just a few weeks, they had raised enough money to buy the special glasses for Jaron. Paragraph 2: Seeing the special glasses, Jaron was puzzled. When Hayes explained the effort they had put in, tears welled up in Jaron’s eyes. He tried on the glasses, and suddenly, the world around him transformed. Overwhelmed with emotion, Jaron hugged Hayes and thanked his classmates. From that day on, Jaron no longer felt left out.

Here are four who pushed boundaries and changed the world. Wu Chienshiung (1912—1997) Bon in Taicang, Jiangsu province, Wu took part in the Manhattan Project which helped create the world’s first nuclear weapon. Her famous Wu experiment overturned the theory of parity (宇称理论) in physics.

Hedy Lamarr (1914—2000) Austria-born Lamarr starred in a lot of Hollywood films and made great success. She was also super smart and a self-taught inventor. During the second world war, Lamarr together with George Antheil, a composer, developed a radio guidance system. The principle of their work is part of the basis of Bluetooth and wireless technology. Katherine Johns (1918—2020) African American NASA mathematician Johnson’s calculations were critical in getting the first US astronauts to space and back safely.

Through the project, Jahkil looks to raise awareness for reducing homelessness in Chicago and beyond. Even at a very tender age, his deeds already drew the recognition of former U. S. President Barack Obama in 2017. Jahkil also pushes to motivate and influence fellow kids to get more active and useful in their communities. When he was five years old, Jahkil assisted his aunt in distributing food to the homeless in Chicago. Then the little boy was unhappy to find out that people could not afford a home. He was always eager to find out how he could offer help to people. And he would be mad for not being able to give money to anyone asking for help on the streets. He was determined to help the homeless in every way he could. That strong desire later gave birth to the Project I Am, his nonprofit organization, which focused on helping the homeless people. He founded it at the age of eight, and has since then never looked back on his journey of charity. Through Project I Am, Jahkil Jackson reaches out to the homeless by distributing “Blessing bags”. Provided in the blessing bags are diverse kinds of materials to help the needy, including wipes, hand sanitizers, toothbrushes, toothpaste, socks, bottled water, among other things. Jahkil Jackson is also one of the key workers in Dream for Kids, another nonprofit organization founded by Tom Tuohy, a social entrepreneur. Jahkil met with Tuohy at a Holiday for Hope event organized by the Dream for Kids.

In contrast to rushing past overcrowded tourist landmarks, the new trend has emerged as a popular alternative to explore bustling markets, ancient streets, and charming alleys at a leisurely pace. The appeal of Citywalk caters particularly to the younger generation often caught up in demanding work schedules. As evidenced by the increasing popularity of hash tags like “City walk for vacation” on lifestyle sharing platform Xiaohong shu, with a staggering 465 million views and nearly 464, 600 engagements, the trend is truly capturing unbelievable attention. Citywalk, or meandering through the urban landscapes, means the act of walking freely along city streets unburdened by exhaustive plans. It offers people an avenue to intimately experience urban culture and local traditions. Citywalk is not merely about sightseeing. It creates an opportunity for social interactions and deep connections with the cities. Citywalk routes are tailored to the specific interests of both out-of-town tourists and locals. For tourists, the focus is on sharing local customs and traditions, while for locals, discussions revolve around the city’s past, present, and future. The growing trend of Citywalk reflects a changing attitude towards life, embracing a warmer, more relaxed, and slower-paced lifestyle. As Citywalk expands beyond first-tier cities like Beijing, Shanghai, and Guangzhou, to second-and third-tier cities across the county, it brings fresh opportunities for the tourism industry, in such areas as dining, shopping, and accommodation. Governments in Beijing and Shandong have recognized the potential of Citywalk, incorporating it into their action plans to promote cultural tourism and leisure activities. In Shanghai, public bus lines specially designed have been introduced to elevate the overall Citywalk for participants. “By slowing down and delving into the narrow alleys, observing the lives of city residents, and immersing oneself in the context of museums and art galleries, one is entitled to embrace the pleasure of life,” said Luo Jun, a cultural tourism enthusiast. 23. What’s the main reason for the popularity of Citywalk among young people? A. It mainly focuses on urban sightseeing. B. Social media offer many tempting videos. C. Busywork schedule limits the choice of people. D. Conventional tourist landmarks are losing charm. 24. What’s the meaning of underlined word “staggering” in the second paragraph? A. Astonishing. B. Rewarding. C. Embarrassing. D. Shrinking. 25. Which of the following statements is NOT Citywalk? A. An immersive route for foreigners to enjoy the alleys in Chengdu. B. A holiday travel to hurriedly visit crowded landmarks in Shanghai. C. A free walk including visiting museums and old towns in Qingdao. D. A leisurely tour along Qiantang River to experience city transformation. 26. What have some governments done to promote Citywalk? A. Facilities in the museums have been enhanced. B. Cooperation has been strengthened among cities. C. Opportunities have been offered to third-tier cities. D. Specific public transportation routes have been introduced. D Painting one blade of a wind turbine （涡轮机） black could cut bird strikes at wind farms, a study published in the journal Ecology and Evolution suggests. Birds crashing with the structures has long been considered as one of the main negative impacts of onshore wind energy development. In Norway, 6-9 white-tailed eagles are killed annually within the Smøla wind-power plant, which has caused opposition and conflict. The Smøla wind farm is located on the west coast of Norway, consisting of 68 turbines over 18 square kilometers, making it one of the largest onshore wind farms in Norway. Dr May, a senior researcher from the Norwegian Institute for Nature Research in Trondheim, said, “The expectation is that this design reduces so-called motion smear （运动视觉模糊）, making the blades more visible to birds.” Dr May said the concept of reducing the motion smear was based on laboratory experiments carried out in the US at the beginning of the century. The authors of the study observed that the annual death rate was significantly reduced at the turbines with a painted blade by over 70%, relative to the unpainted turbines. According to researchers, the findings were encouraging but further testing at different wind farms was needed in order to make the findings more persuasive. Dr May observed: “Although we found a significant drop in bird collision rates, its effect may well be site -and species-specific. What hasn’t been tested yet, is whether other blade patterns (e. g. red blade tips as used to warn flights) might be equally effective. Martin Harper, the RSPB’s director for conservation, welcomed the research. Meanwhile, a spokesman for manufacturer Siemens Gamesa said the issue was one for developers and operators of wind farms to consider, rather than producers. She said: “Our approach to wind farm development takes account of the local bird population right from the very start.” 27. What is the intention of painting wind turbines? A. To avoid potential collisions B. To beautify the surface of wind turbine. C. To collect more wind energy for turbine. D. To make wind turbine more visible for workers. 28. What does the fourth paragraph imply? A. Painting blades was the top priority. B. The design promoted the motion smear. C. The practice of painting came into effect. D. Painted turbines performed better than unpainted. 29. What is researchers’ attitude towards the findings? A. Doubtful. B. Cautious. C. Indifferent. D. Optimistic. 30. What is the main idea of the passage? A. Increasing the population of birds is the first mission. B. Painting the blades of turbines facilitates the production. C. Constructing a well-functioned farm appeals to more birds. D. Blacking wind turbines contributes to the decrease of birds’ crash. 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。 Cultural intelligence, or cultural quotient (CQ) is the ability to manage cultural diversity. ___31___ It also involves understanding and appreciating cultural differences and being able to adapt to those differences. ___32___ For one thing, it can help you avoid misunderstandings and communication breakdowns with people from other cultures.
