If you’re looking for inspiration to get healthy and stay active, look no further than Edna Giordano.
Edna, who lives in Canada, has become famous for the fitness level she maintains at age 91. The mom of five, grandmother of twenty-one and great-grandmother of four still drives now. “I’ve always had a busy lifestyle because, let's face it, with that many children, you have to be busy,” Edna said. “So, I never really thought about it. That’s just the way I live.” She said she only really began to focus on her fitness in her 60s, when she was forced to retire from her job at a local hospital. She had to face the fact that she was 60.
To keep herself busy, Edna began gardening again that she had to abandon due to her busy work. She said she also started going to the gym in her 60s, which she still does every other day. “I have to keep my feet to the fire because it’s cold in the morning in winter, and when it’s snowy or icy out there, I don’t really get enthusiastic about going outside, ” she said. “But I make myself do it and mark it on the calendar. So I cannot take any shortcuts.”
Edna said she focused on walking at the gym for her cardiovascular (心血管) health and also included lots of weight lifting in her routine to maintain her bone strength. “When in the gym, I don’t try to break any records or compete with anyone else,” Edna said. “I only push myself to do better all the time, and I only compete with myself.”
When it came to her age, Edna said the people at the gym didn't realize she's 91. She prefers it that way, because when people do realize she’s in her 90s, they’ll surely demand to help her. “I know them well. But I don't really want help,” said Edna. “It’s funny to say that, but I like to be independent.”

C
I was born and raised in England in a culture where respecting other people’s privacy and “keeping yourself to yourself” were valued. Speaking to strangers was not encouraged. People were most hospitable (好客的) and friendly.
However, I have been lucky enough to spend some time in both Italy and the US, where I found traditions of hospitality and politeness very different.
I experienced Italian hospitality first-hand on a crowded railway carriage travelling from Genoa to Florence. Sinking gratefully into an empty seat, I was scolded in rapid Italian by a gentleman who was returning to the seat — it had not been “spare” after all, so I apologized in English, and got up to allow him back into the seat. The gentleman obviously had no understanding of the English language, but he realized my sincere apology. He smiled and gestured for me to remain in the seat, and he himself remained standing in the corridor for the rest of the journey. The other passengers smiled and nodded at me and made me feel quite welcome among them. I feel that if this had been in England, a foreigner who made a mistake would not always be so kindly treated.
Transport also showed the differences between the English and American culture. I flew to New York on a plane with mainly English passengers. We sat together in near silence. Nobody spoke to me nor, as I expected, to anyone else they did not know. They felt it was not polite to interrupt someone else’s privacy. However, when I travelled across the US, whether by plane or Greyhound bus, I was never short of conversation. Conversation was going on all around me and whoever sat next to me was happy to introduce themselves and ask me about myself. They obviously felt it would have been rude not to speak to another person, whether they were strangers or not.
8. What do we know about the passengers when the author was travelling in Italy?
A. They were all on the side of the gentleman.
B. They all laughed at the author for his mistake.
C. They would not bear a mistake like the author’s in public.
D. They all showed their understanding of the author’s mistake.
9 What does the underlined word “scolded” in Paragraph 3 refer to?
A. Shouted. B. Surprised. C. Praised. D. Blamed.
10. Why did English passengers sit in near silence according to the last paragraph?
A. Everybody was deeply lost in thought.
B. They were all strangers to each other.
C. Respecting privacy was valued in England.
D. They were too tired to speak to anyone.
11. What can be the best title for the text?
A. Understand Each Other
B. The Importance of Privacy
C. Different Ways of Hospitality and Politeness
D. My Unforgettable Travelling Experience Abroad
D
A casual walk along the Beijing Central Axis, connecting the Drum Tower and the impressive Forbidden City — this was Zhao’s first city-walking journey in the spring of last year. Since then, the 21-year-old student from Beijing Foreign Studies University has remained a city-walk fan, believing it to be the best way to “rediscover a city”.
“I visited Beijing before the start of my college life here, and it was a typical package tour during which going to scenic spots and taking photos was a big thing. The crowded tourist attractions gave me the impression that Beijing was a noisy place,” Zhao said.
With the increasing variety of travel choices, traditional group tours no longer satisfy people who are looking for a more personal and different travel experience and hoping to explore every part of the city in a more immersive (沉浸式的) way.
Compared with tightly scheduled routes (路线) and picture-taking tours, city-walking focuses on free, casual and spontaneous (自发的) experiences. The trending city-walk culture, which encourages experiencing urban life with no transportation means except one’s legs and feet, has also made splashes on various social media platforms.
On the video-sharing app Douyin, the Chinese version of Tik-Tok, a recent video about citywalk routes in Guangzhou, Guangdong province, has gained more than 171,000 likes, with 72,000 viewers of all ages adding the video to their favorites. According to a report from lifestyle-sharing platform Xiaohongshu, in the first half of this year, searches about city-walks increased 30-fold from the previous year. “The route offers a glimpse (瞥见) into the culture and landscape in different historical stages, as well as its beautiful natural scenery,” it said.
Following his experience in Beijing, Zhao has also explored Wuhan in Hubei province, Hangzhou in Zhejiang province and other cities through city-walking tours. “City-walking is all about doing whatever you want in your own exploration of a city, and it is actually the kind of slow-paced, low-carbon lifestyle that I relate to so much,” he said.
12. Why do Zhao call city-walking the best way to “rediscover a city”?
A. The variety of travel choices is limited.
B. Traditional group tour totally satisfies people’s need.
C. It is a more enjoyable and personal way to explore the city.
D. Common tour wastes much time in taking pictures.
13. What do we know about city-walk culture?
A. It refers to a 30-minute walk on the video-sharing app Douyin.
B. It encourages the experience of free urban life without transportation.
C. It offers practical travel tips through social media platforms.
D. It shows historical moments of life-sharing platform Xiaohongshu.
14. What can we learn in the last but one paragraph?
A. City-walk has gained popularity on the Internet.
B. City-walk is only loved by young people.
C. City-walk recommends the shortest route from one city to another.
D. City-walk has both advantages and disadvantages.
15. What is the best title of the passage?
A. Walking Out from Home B. Culture of Walking Catching on in Cities
C. A Popular Social Platform D. Going Free to Explore the World

I was born and raised in England in a culture where respecting other people’s privacy and “keeping yourself to yourself” were valued. Speaking to strangers was not encouraged. People were most hospitable (好客的) and friendly.
However, I have been lucky enough to spend some time in both Italy and the US, where I found traditions of hospitality and politeness very different.
I experienced Italian hospitality first-hand on a crowded railway carriage travelling from Genoa to Florence. Sinking gratefully into an empty seat, I was scolded in rapid Italian by a gentleman who was returning to the seat — it had not been “spare” after all, so I apologized in English, and got up to allow him back into the seat. The gentleman obviously had no understanding of the English language, but he realized my sincere apology. He smiled and gestured for me to remain in the seat, and he himself remained standing in the corridor for the rest of the journey. The other passengers smiled and nodded at me and made me feel quite welcome among them. I feel that if this had been in England, a foreigner who made a mistake would not always be so kindly treated.
Transport also showed the differences between the English and American culture. I flew to New York on a plane with mainly English passengers. We sat together in near silence. Nobody spoke to me nor, as I expected, to anyone else they did not know. They felt it was not polite to interrupt someone else’s privacy. However, when I travelled across the US, whether by plane or Greyhound bus, I was never short of conversation. Conversation was going on all around me and whoever sat next to me was happy to introduce themselves and ask me about myself. They obviously felt it would have been rude not to speak to another person, whether they were strangers or not.
8. What do we know about the passengers when the author was travelling in Italy?
A. They were all on the side of the gentleman.
B. They all laughed at the author for his mistake.
C. They would not bear a mistake like the author’s in public.
D. They all showed their understanding of the author’s mistake.
9. What does the underlined word “scolded” in Paragraph 3 refer to?
A. Shouted. B. Surprised. C. Praised. D. Blamed.
10. Why did English passengers sit in near silence according to the last paragraph?
A. Everybody was deeply lost in thought.
B. They were all strangers to each other.
C. Respecting privacy was valued in England.
D. They were too tired to speak to anyone.
11. What can be the best title for the text?
A. Understand Each Other
B. The Importance of Privacy
C. Different Ways of Hospitality and Politeness
D My Unforgettable Travelling Experience Abroad
【答案】8. D 9. D 10. C 11. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。作者通过自己的旅行经历说明了不同文化中人们表现“好客”和“礼貌”的方式不一样。
【8题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段中的“The other passengers smiled and nodded at me and made me feel quite welcome among them.(其他乘客对我微笑着点了点头,让我在他们中间感到很受欢迎。)”可知,车厢里的其他乘客都对作者点头微笑,说明他们理解作者的错误,对作者的错误很宽容。故选D。
【9题详解】
词句猜测题。根据画线词所在句中的“so I apologized in English, and got up to allow him back into the seat”可知,作者道歉说明作者被批评,画线词是“责备”的意思,与blame意为一致。故选D。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段中的“They felt it was not polite to interrupt someone else’s privacy.(他们觉得打断别人的隐私是不礼貌的。)”可知,英国乘客都不说话是因为他们国家的传统认为打扰别人的清净是很不礼貌的,因此英国重视尊重别人不受干扰的状态。故选C。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文,尤其是第二段“However, I have been lucky enough to spend some time in both Italy and the US, where I found traditions of hospitality and politeness very different.(然而,我很幸运地在意大利和美国待了一段时间,在那里我发现好客和礼貌的传统非常不同。)”可知,作者通过描述自己在意大利和美国的旅行经历来说明不同文化中人们表现“好客”和“礼貌”的方式不一样。故C项“好客和礼貌的不同方式”切题。故选C。

A casual walk along the Beijing Central Axis, connecting the Drum Tower and the impressive Forbidden City — this was Zhao’s first city-walking journey in the spring of last year. Since then, the 21-year-old student from Beijing Foreign Studies University has remained a city-walk fan, believing it to be the best way to “rediscover a city”.
“I visited Beijing before the start of my college life here, and it was a typical package tour during which going to scenic spots and taking photos was a big thing. The crowded tourist attractions gave me the impression that Beijing was a noisy place,” Zhao said.
With the increasing variety of travel choices, traditional group tours no longer satisfy people who are looking for a more personal and different travel experience and hoping to explore every part of the city in a more immersive (沉浸式的) way.
Compared with tightly scheduled routes (路线) and picture-taking tours, city-walking focuses on free, casual and spontaneous (自发的) experiences. The trending city-walk culture, which encourages experiencing urban life with no transportation means except one’s legs and feet, has also made splashes on various social media platforms.
On the video-sharing app Douyin, the Chinese version of Tik-Tok, a recent video about citywalk routes in Guangzhou, Guangdong province, has gained more than 171,000 likes, with 72,000 viewers of all ages adding the video to their favorites. According to a report from lifestyle-sharing platform Xiaohongshu, in the first half of this year, searches about city-walks increased 30-fold from the previous year. “The route offers a glimpse (瞥见) into the culture and landscape in different historical stages, as well as its beautiful natural scenery,” it said.
Following his experience in Beijing, Zhao has also explored Wuhan in Hubei province, Hangzhou in Zhejiang province and other cities through city-walking tours. “City-walking is all about doing whatever you want in your own exploration of a city, and it is actually the kind of slow-paced, low-carbon lifestyle that I relate to so much,” he said.
12. Why do Zhao call city-walking the best way to “rediscover a city”?
A. The variety of travel choices is limited.
B. Traditional group tour totally satisfies people’s need.
C. It is a more enjoyable and personal way to explore the city.
D. Common tour wastes much time in taking pictures.
13. What do we know about city-walk culture?
A. It refers to a 30-minute walk on the video-sharing app Douyin.
B. It encourages the experience of free urban life without transportation.
C. It offers practical travel tips through social media platforms.
D. It shows historical moments of life-sharing platform Xiaohongshu.
14. What can we learn in the last but one paragraph?
A. City-walk has gained popularity on the Internet.
B. City-walk is only loved by young people.
C. City-walk recommends the shortest route from one city to another.
D. City-walk has both advantages and disadvantages.
15. What is the best title of the passage?
A. Walking Out from Home B. Culture of Walking Catching on in Cities
C. A Popular Social Platform D. Going Free to Explore the World
【答案】12. C 13. B 14. A 15. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了城市漫步作为一种个性化和不同的旅游方式,满足了人们以一种更沉浸式的方式探索城市的需求,是一种慢节奏、低碳的生活方式,受到了人们的喜爱。
【12题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“With the increasing variety of travel choices, traditional group tours no longer satisfy people who are looking for a more personal and different travel experience and hoping to explore every part of the city in a more immersive (沉浸式的) way. (随着旅游选择的多样化,传统的团体游已经不能满足那些寻求更个性化和不同的旅行体验,并希望以一种更沉浸式的方式探索城市的每一个部分的人)”和最后一段中Zhao所说的话“City-walking is all about doing whatever you want in your own exploration of a city, and it is actually the kind of slow-paced, low-carbon lifestyle that I relate to so much (城市漫步就是在探索城市的过程中做任何你想做的事情,它实际上是一种慢节奏、低碳的生活方式,我非常喜欢)”可推知,因为不同于传统的团体游,城市漫步是探索城市的一种更愉快、更个人化的方式,所以赵称城市漫步是“重新发现一个城市”的最好方式。故选C项。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段中“The trending city-walk culture, which encourages experiencing urban life with no transportation means except one’s legs and feet, has also made splashes on various social media platforms. (流行的城市漫步文化也在各大社交媒体平台上引起了轰动,这种文化鼓励人们在除了腿和脚之外没有任何交通工具的情况下体验城市生活)”可知,城市漫步文化鼓励人们在没有交通工具的情况下体验自由城市生活。故选B项。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中“On the video-sharing app Douyin, the Chinese version of Tik-Tok, a recent video about citywalk routes in Guangzhou, Guangdong province, has gained more than 171,000 likes, with 72,000 viewers of all ages adding the video to their favorites. According to a report from lifestyle-sharing platform Xiaohongshu, in the first half of this year, searches about city-walks increased 30-fold from the previous year. (在视频分享应用抖音,中国版的Tik-Tok上,最近发布的一段关于广东省广州城市漫步路线的视频,获得了超过17.1万个赞,有7.2万名不同年龄的观众把这段视频加到了自己的收藏中。根据生活方式分享平台小红书的一份报告,今年上半年,关于城市漫步的搜索量比去年增长了30倍)”可知,城市漫步在抖音和小红书两个平台上都是热门话题。由此可知,城市漫步在互联网上很受欢迎。故选A项。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文,尤其是第四段“Compared with tightly scheduled routes (路线) and picture-taking tours, city-walking focuses on free, casual and spontaneous (自发的) experiences. The trending city-walk culture, which encourages experiencing urban life with no transportation means except one’s legs and feet, has also made splashes on various social media platforms. (与紧凑的路线和拍照旅游相比,城市漫步侧重于自由、随意和自发的体验。流行的城市漫步文化也在各大社交媒体平台上引起了轰动,这种文化鼓励人们在除了腿和脚之外没有任何交通工具的情况下体验城市生活)”可知,文章围绕城市漫步展开,介绍了城市漫步作为一种个性化和不同的旅游方式,满足了人们以一种更沉浸式的方式探索城市的需求,是一种慢节奏、低碳的生活方式,受到了人们的喜爱。因此,B项“漫步文化在城市中流行起来”契合文章主旨,适合作为文章标题。故选B项。

【16题详解】
根据本空前的“Studying longer does not necessarily mean studying better.”可知,学习时间长并不意味着学得更好,下文又介绍了高效学习的几点建议,故G项(为了充分利用时间,你需要学会如何高效地学习)符合语境。
【17题详解】
根据本空前的“The first thing you need to do is avoid distractions (分散注意力的事物) while studying.”可知,你需要做的第一件事就是避开学习时分散注意力的事物,故C项(这意味着去一个能给你带来平静的地方)符合语境。
【18题详解】
根据本空前的“As a general rule, assign (分配) at least one hour to each subject.”可知,每个科目至少安排一小时,故F项(如果你有一个宽泛的科目,你需要把它分成更小的部分)符合语境。
【19题详解】
根据本空前的“you should arrange study breaks.”可知,你应该安排学习时的休息时间,故A项(每两个小时休息15分钟)符合语境。

【点睛】过渡句是七选五的常见考点,被选选项一定要起到承上启下的过渡作用,既要对应上问话题,又要引出下文(通常是方法或建议),例如本篇第1题,上文提到学习时间长并不意味着学得更好,下文又介绍了如何高效学习的几点建议,G项(为了充分利用时间,你需要学会如何高效地学习)既对应了上文提到的学习时间这一话题,又引出了下文高效学习的几点建议,符合语境。

【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章给读者介绍了压力的利弊,告诉我们应该学会如何应对压力。
【51题详解】
考查语态。句意:基本上来说,心理压力被认为是环境中的任何变化或压力。分析句子成分可知,主语为stress表示“压力”,所以谓语动词需要被动语态且要用第三人称单数的形式;文章开头是在陈述一个客观事实,用一般现在时。故填is seen。
【52题详解】
考查介词。句意:大多数人认为压力是一件坏事。as意为“作为”,符合句意。故填as。
【53题详解】
考查形容词。句意:有一点压力可以在许多方面帮助高中生。空处前文有系动词be,故空处应填形容词做表语。help为动词,其名词形式为helpful表示“有益的”、“有帮助的”。故填helpful。
【54题详解】
考查副词。句意:压力让他们学习更努力。空处前文有much,故空处应填副词hard的比较级。故填harder。
【55题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:青春期是学习应对压力的重要时期。修饰time应用不定式作后置定语,time to learn to cope with stress“学习应对压力的时期”。故填to learn。
【56题详解】
考查连词。句意:但是,压力太大会影响身心两方面。固定结构both… and意为“既……又”,用于并列文中body和mind,表示“身体和心灵”,符合文意和文章结构。故填and。
【57题详解】
考查副词。句意:但是对高中生来说尤其糟糕。根据后文形容词bad可知,空处应填副词用于修饰形容词。提示词especial为形容词,其副词形式为especially。故填especially。
【58题详解】
考查代词。句意:大学都在抱怨,说越来越多的学生都不把心思放他们的课业上了。根据空后名词studies可知,空处应填形容词性物主代词。提示词they的形容词性物主代词形式为their,符合文意。故填their。
【59题详解】
考查代词。句意:既然每个人对于压力都有不同的心理承受能力,那想了解多大压力才会影响到他们的健康就很难了。分析句子成分可知,前文since引导原因状语从句,后文有不定式to know when a student is pushed to the point of __10__ his or her death为真正的主语,故主句缺少形式主语it。故填it。
【60题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:既然每个人对于压力都有不同的心理承受能力,那想了解多大压力才会影响到他们的健康就很难了。根据空前介词of可知,空处须填所给词的动名词形式influencing作宾语。故填influencing。
