By March 18, it had made around 3.5 billion yuan at the box office, reported Paper. Directed by 41-year-old Jia Ling, the movie tells the story of a woman tired of the world, finding herself and learning to love life through boxing (拳击). The name of YOLO is short for the movie’s main idea—you only live once. Jia Ling has tried many different roles in her life, including crosstalk (相声) and sketch (小品) performer, variety show (综艺节目) guest and actress. The movie Hi, Mom (《你好，李焕英》) in 2019 is the first one Jia directed in her life. Jia didn’t study directing at university. It makes her feel freer in film making because she doesn’t need to follow a fixed style. To everyone’s surprise, Hi, Mom made her the world’s highest-grossing (票房最高的) woman director before 2023. Before making YOLO, Jia was often seen as an overweight comedian (喜剧演员). She often made jokes about herself to make people laugh. For this movie, Jia lost more than 50kg which made it hard to imagine that this is the same Jia we once knew. Some people online said even her voice became softer, and they called this a “rebirth” for Jia. She has proved through her actions, that if you want to be successful, you need to try your best. In Jia’s eyes, her change in identity (身份) and look is her way of saying true to herself. “It’s hard to predict one’s life. I’m just following my heart but not looking for changes in purpose. Movies are now the best way to show myself, so I put all my energy into them.” Jia told Xinhua. “In fact, Jia didn’t change. She’s just being more herself. She shows us through her actions,” said talk show host Chen Luyu. 33．How old is Jia Ling? A．Forty. B．Forty-one. C．Fifty. D．Fifty-one. 34．When did Jia Ling become a director for the first time?

B．She directed the movie in 2018. C．In this movie, Jia learned to love life through boxing. D．This movie made her the world’s highest-grossing woman director before 2023. 36．What can you learn from Jia Ling or her movie YOLO? A．Before making YOLO, Jia was often seen as a thin comedian. B．The movie YOLO makes Jia Ling just be more herself. C．Jia studied directing at university. D．This movie made her the world’s highest-grossing woman director. 【答案】33．B 34．C 35．D 36．B 【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。文章主要介绍了贾玲以及她导演的电影《热辣滚烫》。 33．细节理解题。根据第二段“Directed by 41-year-old Jia Ling,”可知，贾玲41岁。故选B。 34．推理判断题。根据第三段“The movie Hi, Mom in 2019 is the first one Jia directed in her life.”可知，2019年，贾玲第一次导演电影《你好，李焕英》；据此可推断，5年前贾玲第一次做导演。故选C。 35．细节理解题。根据第四段“To everyone’s surprise, Hi, Mom made her the world’s highest-grossing woman director before 2023.”可知，令所有人惊讶的是，《你好，李焕英》让她成为2023年之前全球票房最高的女导演。故选D。 36．推理判断题。根据第五段“Before making YOLO, Jia was often seen as an overweight comedian. She often made jokes about herself to make people laugh. For this movie, Jia lost more than 50kg which made it hard to imagine that this is the same Jia we once knew.”和最后一段“In fact, Jia didn’t change. She’s just being more herself. She shows us through her actions,”可推断，为了拍摄《热辣滚烫》，贾玲身份和外形改变了，但其实贾玲的本质并没有改变，只是更加做她自己而已。故选B。 D British gourmet (美食家) Fuchsia Dunlop’s posts on WeChat are fun to read. Most of them are about her experience with food from around the world, especially in China. She says she cooks in a very relaxed way, going to the farmers’ market at the weekend to buy seasonal products for everyday cooking—a mixture of Jiangnan, Hunan, Guangdong, and Sichuan dishes. “For me, there are so many wonderful things about Chinese food. The thing that I find greatest about it is that you can eat food that is both really delicious and incredibly healthy,” Dunlop says. “The Chinese are experts at cooking vegetables, so it’s very easy for me to eat Chinese food almost every day.” Growing up in Oxford, Dunlop dreamed of becoming a cook when she was little. However, her dream did not come true until she came to Chengdu as a university student in 1994. Always keeping a notebook on hand wherever she went, she wrote down the recipes of the dishes she tasted. Based on her knowledge of Sichuan cuisine (菜肴), Dunlop published her first book, Sichuan Cookery, in 2001. Since then she has published four books about Sichuan cuisine, and one in 2016 about recipes (配方) from Jiangnan called Land of Fish and Rice. Now, a Chinese version (版本) of Land of Fish and Rice translated by He Yujia, is available. In the book, Dunlop displays her profound understanding of the food culture that runs deep in the blood of Chinese people. Having studied Chinese food culture for nearly two decades, she regards the Jiangnan area as the heartland of the nation’s gastronomy. “Although you have really interesting and delicious food all over China, in this area, particularly, people wrote about it and discussed it. Many of the old classic food books came from this area, for example. So, if you talk about gastronomy and not just about good food, then Jiangnan is a really important area,” she says. Dunlop spent 10 years researching the book. The decisive moment was in 2008 when she went to Longiing Caotang, a restaurant in Hangzhou, where the whole approach to ingredients, seasoning, cooking and tradition was so moving and impressive that, at that moment, she decided to write a book about the area, she says. By then, she had published three books about Sichuan and Hunan cuisine, both of which are famous for being spicy. But in Hangzhou and Yangzhou, she encountered food that was calm, peaceful, soothing and delicate. “Jiangnan food is connected with Chinese literature. Lots of dishes have quite literary names or stories behind them,” she says. As a result, when introducing food in the book, besides tracing the history of the dishes, she also tells stories like how Su Dongpo invented Dongpo Pork in the 11th century. After collecting all the recipes, Dunlop tested them at her home in London to make sure they worked for people in the West. 37．What greatest thing does Fuchsia Dunlop find about Chinese food? A．People can cook Chinese food in different ways. B．She can eat food that is both delicious and healthy C．She can learn how to cook delicious food for the English. D．In China, there are many different cuisines in different places. 38．The underlined words “the book” in Paragraph 8 refer to ________. A．an English version of Sichuan Cookery B．a Chinese version of Sichuan Cookery C．an English version of Land of Fish and Rice D．a Chinese version of Land of Fish and Rice 39．According to the passage, what do we know about Fuchsia Dunlop? A．She prefers supermarkets for shopping to farmers’ markets. B．Her interest and hard work are the main reasons for her achievements. C．She never thought about being a cook until she came to China. D．She thinks people in the Jiangnan area cook the best food in China. 40．What do you think of the things that Fuchsia Dunlop has done? A．They are no good for spreading the traditional Chinese culture. B．They are just for people to enjoy the beauty of the Chinese food. C．They are good for people around the world to know Chinese culture. D．They can help Fuchsia Dunlop make money in China. 【答案】37．B 38．D 39．B 40．C 【导语】本文主要讲述了英国美食家Fuchsia Dunlop研究中国美食并撰写相关书籍，弘扬中国美食文化的故事。 37． 细节理解题。根据“The thing that I find greatest about it is that you can eat food that is both really delicious and incredibly healthy”可知，Fuchsia Dunlop发现最棒的是，你可以吃到既美味又健康的食物。故选B。 38． 词义猜测题。根据“Now, a Chinese version (版本) of Land of Fish and Rice, translated by He Yujia, is available.”及“at that moment, she decided to write a book about the area, she says”可知，Fuchsia Dunlop认为如果谈论美食，江南是一个非常重要的地区，在杭州时她决定写关于江南美食的书籍——《鱼米之乡》，故此处划线部分指代“中国版的《鱼米之乡》”。故选D。 39． 推理判断题。根据“Always keeping a notebook on hand wherever she went, she wrote down the recipes of the dishes she tasted.”和“Having studied Chinese food culture for nearly twenty years ...”可推知，邓洛普的兴趣和努力是她取得成就的主要原因。故选B。 40．推理判断题。Fuchsia Dunlop通过研究中国美食、撰写美食书籍弘扬中国美食文化，这有利于世界人民更好的了解中国文化。故选C。 四、信息还原（共5小题，每道题2分，满分10分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后所给的选项中选出能填入短文空白处的最佳选项，使短文通顺连贯，其中有两项是多余选项。 Fan Zhongyan was a famous statesman, military strategist and writer in the Northern Song Dynasty.

Personality is the pattern of feelings, thoughts and behavior shown through people’s lives. It makes them different from others. Each person’s personality is made up of different personality characters such as kindness or shyness. These characters decide how people behave in different situations. For example, if someone shy is served the wrong meal in a restaurant, he probably won’t say anything. On the other hand, someone outgoing will probably complain and get the meal he ordered. Where does your personality come from? The human brain is like a computer because it controls the human body just as a computer controls a robot. However, humans aren’t robots! We have personalities. The human brain has a special part giving us personality and allowing us to think for ourselves, unlike a computer. This part of the brain is called the mind. Personality types Clearly scientists cannot study the mind by looking inside someone’s brain! All they would see is blood and grey matter. To study the mind, scientists have to study human behavior. This includes watching people carefully and organizing personality tests like this one: 1. Do you think you’re pretty or good-looking? 2. Would you rather read a book or go to a party? 3. Do you have a large group of friends or just one or two close friends? 4. Do you mind talking in public or does it scare you? 5. Are you messy or neat? 6. Do you plan your work well or do you do things at the last minute? Scientists believe that answers to these types of questions tell us something about a person’s personality characters. After asking thousands of people thousands of questions, they’ve found that some personality characters seem to go together. This has led scientists to believe that there’re certain personality types. For example, shy people are often quiet. They have an introverted (内向的) personality type. The opposite is an extroverted (外向的) personality type — people who are outgoing, talkative and like being around other people. 66．What is personality? 67．Why is the human brain like a computer? 68．How do scientists study human behavior? 69．How many personality types are mentioned in this passage? 70．What decides your personality?（请自拟一句话作答） 【答案】66．Personality/It is the pattern of feelings, thoughts and behavior shown through people’s lives. 67．Because it controls the human body just as a computer controls a robot. 68．It includes watching people carefully and organizing personality tests. 69．Two./2. 70．The mind decides one’s personality.（言之成理即可） 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了人的性格。 66．根据原文“Personality is the pattern of feelings, thoughts and behavior shown through people’s lives.”可知，性格是通过人们的生活表现出来的感情、思想和行为的模式。故填Personality/It is the pattern of feelings, thoughts and behavior shown through people’s lives. 67．根据原文“The human brain is like a computer because it controls the human body just as a computer controls a robot”可知，人脑就像一台电脑，因为它控制着人体，就像电脑控制着机器人一样。故填Because it controls the human body just as a computer controls a robot. 68．根据原文“To study the mind, scientists have to study human behavior. This includes watching people carefully and organizing personality tests …”可知，科学家通过观察和组织性格测试来研究人类的行为。故填It includes watching people carefully and organizing personality tests. 69．根据原文“They have an introverted (内向的) personality type. The opposite is an extroverted (外向的) personality type — people who are outgoing, talkative and like being around other people”可知，文中提到了内向和外向两种性格。故填Two./2. 70．本小题无标准答案，学生言之成理即可。故参考答案为：The mind decides one’s personality. 八、作文（满分20分） 71．根据要求完成英语短文写作，请将英语短文写在答题卡指定的位置上。 榜样的力量是巨大的。作为中学生，相信我们都有自己的榜样。下周学校英语俱乐部将举行“主题征文”活动，请你根据表格信息提示用英文写一篇短文投稿。 我的好榜样 谁是我的好榜样？ 为什么是我的好榜样？ 这个好榜样给我带来什么影响？ (或你的感受体会) 举1个自己受好榜样影响的事例。 我的呼吁。 注意： 1) 不能使用本试卷所有短文的人物和事迹作为自己文章的例子。要写正能量人物例子，不能写负面或反面人物例子，否则得0分。不能照抄本试卷所有短文原文的完整句子；不得在作文中出现学校的真实名称和考生的真实姓名。 2) 语句连贯，词数不少于80个。 参考表达： to set a good example for sb. 给某人树立好榜样 to carry on the spirit of…/to inherit the spirit of… 传承……的精神 My Good Example ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】例文 My Good Example Lei Feng is my good example, because he would help others who were in need.

It asked students to tell the stories of their family heirlooms (传家宝). More than 300 students took part. They brought photos of their heirlooms to school and shared their stories. The 14-year-old Song Zhengchen’s heirloom is a cassette radio (磁带收音机). His grandmother bought the radio in the 1980s and listened to the news on it. His mother then used it to listen to music tapes. When Song was young, his mother often played old poems for him on the radio. “There are now many more cool players. But we still keep this one because it recorded beautiful memories of my family,” said Song. Xiao Yao, 14, won the first prize in the activity. Her heirlooms are some food coupons (粮票). Her grandma used to tell her stories about food shortages (短缺) when she was a kid. Back then, people could only get so much food each month. Even buying rice needed a special coupon. Xiao was amazed by this. She said, “My grandma wants me to be thankful for what we have today and work hard for a better tomorrow.” Guo Kexing’s heirloom is a medal from his great-grandfather. He took part in the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea (抗美援朝战争). For the 13-year-old, the medal stands as an honor (荣誉) for his family. “Whenever I see my great-grandfather’s medal, I feel very proud. In my heart, my great-grandfather is a hero.

She uses them as teaching tools. She is able to make use of these everyday objects to explain physical questions in a simple way. “I made these videos to make young people curious (好奇的) about common life. And I hope they can use everyday tools to experience the fun of discovering the truth of science,” Wu said. Wu has been spreading physics knowledge actively for 16 years. She said children’s interest in doing experiments made her keep making videos. To guide students to put interest into experimental research, Wu is going to put up online courses as well as short videos. According to CCTV, her videos are like “classrooms without walls”.

C This spring, the most eye-catching movie might be YOLO (《热辣滚烫》). By March 18, it had made around 3.5 billion yuan at the box office, reported Paper. Directed by 41-year-old Jia Ling, the movie tells the story of a woman tired of the world, finding herself and learning to love life through boxing (拳击). The name of YOLO is short for the movie’s main idea—you only live once. Jia Ling has tried many different roles in her life, including crosstalk (相声) and sketch (小品) performer, variety show (综艺节目) guest and actress. The movie Hi, Mom (《你好，李焕英》) in 2019 is the first one Jia directed in her life. Jia didn’t study directing at university. It makes her feel freer in film making because she doesn’t need to follow a fixed style. To everyone’s surprise, Hi, Mom made her the world’s highest-grossing (票房最高的) woman director before 2023. Before making YOLO, Jia was often seen as an overweight comedian (喜剧演员). She often made jokes about herself to make people laugh. For this movie, Jia lost more than 50kg which made it hard to imagine that this is the same Jia we once knew. Some people online said even her voice became softer, and they called this a “rebirth” for Jia. She has proved through her actions, that if you want to be successful, you need to try your best. In Jia’s eyes, her change in identity (身份) and look is her way of saying true to herself. “It’s hard to predict one’s life. I’m just following my heart but not looking for changes in purpose. Movies are now the best way to show myself, so I put all my energy into them.” Jia told Xinhua. “In fact, Jia didn’t change. She’s just being more herself. She shows us through her actions,” said talk show host Chen Luyu. 33．How old is Jia Ling? A．Forty. B．Forty-one. C．Fifty. D．Fifty-one. 34．When did Jia Ling become a director for the first time?

D British gourmet (美食家) Fuchsia Dunlop’s posts on WeChat are fun to read. Most of them are about her experience with food from around the world, especially in China. She says she cooks in a very relaxed way, going to the farmers’ market at the weekend to buy seasonal products for everyday cooking—a mixture of Jiangnan, Hunan, Guangdong, and Sichuan dishes. “For me, there are so many wonderful things about Chinese food. The thing that I find greatest about it is that you can eat food that is both really delicious and incredibly healthy,” Dunlop says. “The Chinese are experts at cooking vegetables, so it’s very easy for me to eat Chinese food almost every day.” Growing up in Oxford, Dunlop dreamed of becoming a cook when she was little. However, her dream did not come true until she came to Chengdu as a university student in 1994. Always keeping a notebook on hand wherever she went, she wrote down the recipes of the dishes she tasted. Based on her knowledge of Sichuan cuisine (菜肴), Dunlop published her first book, Sichuan Cookery, in 2001. Since then she has published four books about Sichuan cuisine, and one in 2016 about recipes (配方) from Jiangnan called Land of Fish and Rice. Now, a Chinese version (版本) of Land of Fish and Rice translated by He Yujia, is available. In the book, Dunlop displays her profound understanding of the food culture that runs deep in the blood of Chinese people. Having studied Chinese food culture for nearly two decades, she regards the Jiangnan area as the heartland of the nation’s gastronomy. “Although you have really interesting and delicious food all over China, in this area, particularly, people wrote about it and discussed it. Many of the old classic food books came from this area, for example. So, if you talk about gastronomy and not just about good food, then Jiangnan is a really important area,” she says. Dunlop spent 10 years researching the book. The decisive moment was in 2008 when she went to Longiing Caotang, a restaurant in Hangzhou, where the whole approach to ingredients, seasoning, cooking and tradition was so moving and impressive that, at that moment, she decided to write a book about the area, she says. By then, she had published three books about Sichuan and Hunan cuisine, both of which are famous for being spicy. But in Hangzhou and Yangzhou, she encountered food that was calm, peaceful, soothing and delicate. “Jiangnan food is connected with Chinese literature. Lots of dishes have quite literary names or stories behind them,” she says. As a result, when introducing food in the book, besides tracing the history of the dishes, she also tells stories like how Su Dongpo invented Dongpo Pork in the 11th century. After collecting all the recipes, Dunlop tested them at her home in London to make sure they worked for people in the West. 37．What greatest thing does Fuchsia Dunlop find about Chinese food? A．People can cook Chinese food in different ways. B．She can eat food that is both delicious and healthy C．She can learn how to cook delicious food for the English. D．In China, there are many different cuisines in different places. 38．The underlined words “the book” in Paragraph 8 refer to ________. A．an English version of Sichuan Cookery B．a Chinese version of Sichuan Cookery C．an English version of Land of Fish and Rice D．a Chinese version of Land of Fish and Rice 39．According to the passage, what do we know about Fuchsia Dunlop?

Personality is the pattern of feelings, thoughts and behavior shown through people’s lives. It makes them different from others. Each person’s personality is made up of different personality characters such as kindness or shyness. These characters decide how people behave in different situations. For example, if someone shy is served the wrong meal in a restaurant, he probably won’t say anything. On the other hand, someone outgoing will probably complain and get the meal he ordered. Where does your personality come from? The human brain is like a computer because it controls the human body just as a computer controls a robot. However, humans aren’t robots! We have personalities. The human brain has a special part giving us personality and allowing us to think for ourselves, unlike a computer. This part of the brain is called the mind. Personality types Clearly scientists cannot study the mind by looking inside someone’s brain! All they would see is blood and grey matter. To study the mind, scientists have to study human behavior. This includes watching people carefully and organizing personality tests like this one: 1. Do you think you’re pretty or good-looking? 2. Would you rather read a book or go to a party? 3. Do you have a large group of friends or just one or two close friends? 4. Do you mind talking in public or does it scare you? 5. Are you messy or neat? 6. Do you plan your work well or do you do things at the last minute? Scientists believe that answers to these types of questions tell us something about a person’s personality characters. After asking thousands of people thousands of questions, they’ve found that some personality characters seem to go together. This has led scientists to believe that there’re certain personality types. For example, shy people are often quiet. They have an introverted (内向的) personality type. The opposite is an extroverted (外向的) personality type — people who are outgoing, talkative and like being around other people. 66．What is personality? 67．Why is the human brain like a computer? 68．How do scientists study human behavior? 69．How many personality types are mentioned in this passage? 70．What decides your personality?（请自拟一句话作答） 八、作文（满分20分） 71．根据要求完成英语短文写作，请将英语短文写在答题卡指定的位置上。 榜样的力量是巨大的。作为中学生，相信我们都有自己的榜样。下周学校英语俱乐部将举行“主题征文”活动，请你根据表格信息提示用英文写一篇短文投稿。 我的好榜样 谁是我的好榜样？ 为什么是我的好榜样？ 这个好榜样给我带来什么影响？ (或你的感受体会) 举1个自己受好榜样影响的事例。 我的呼吁。 注意： 1) 不能使用本试卷所有短文的人物和事迹作为自己文章的例子。要写正能量人物例子，不能写负面或反面人物例子，否则得0分。不能照抄本试卷所有短文原文的完整句子；不得在作文中出现学校的真实名称和考生的真实姓名。 2) 语句连贯，词数不少于80个。 参考表达： to set a good example for sb. 给某人树立好榜样 to carry on the spirit of…/to inherit the spirit of… 传承……的精神 My Good Example ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 答案第10页，共10页 原创精品资源学科网独家享有版权，侵权必究！1 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
