At a community store in Hangzhou, items like beans, salt, and sugar are stored in large jars (罐子) and vegetables are placed in bamboo baskets, all without plastic packaging (外包装). Customers (顾客) bring their own cloth bags or bottles to take what they want to buy.
Qiu Li opened the store with the hope of sharing the message that over-packaging and single-use plastics are harmful to the environment.
The store’s sales were low in the beginning. “The items are priced a little higher because they are organic (有机的),” Qiu explained.
What’s more, the new shopping method raised many questions. “Some customers point to a jar and ask if there are smaller packages,” she said. Qiu always explains to each customer that they can use their own cloth bags to take as much or as little as they want. She also offers to lend them used bottles or cloth bags. Customers are gradually getting used to this shopping method.
“Although running the business is difficult, I keep doing it to encourage (鼓励) a greener lifestyle,” Qiu said.
Many people in the community support Qiu’s store. Some bring boxes to the store for customers who forget their own bags. Some make cloth bags from old clothing.
“It takes time to change people’s thoughts. No matter how small our efforts are, they are meaningful,” she said.
29. Why did Qiu Li open the store?
A. To make lots of money.
B. To make good use of her spare time.
C. To encourage people to reduce packaging waste.
D. To satisfy (满足) more and more customers’ needs.
30. How does Qiu Li suggest customers take the items they need?
A. By bringing their own cloth bags.
B. By using plastic bags provided by the store.
C. By choosing items with plastic packaging.
D. By borrowing bottles from other customers.
31. What can we learn from Paragraph 4?
A. People don’t care much about plastic pollution.
B. Customers don’t like this new shopping method.
C. It requires time for customers to accept the new shopping method.
D. It isn’t convenient (便利的) to buy things without smaller packages.

I jumped out from behind the tree.
Jim looked at me with scared eyes. Then he fell to his knees, put his hands together and said, “Don’t hurt me! Please don’t! I’ve never hurt a ghost. I’ve always respected dead people. Go back to the river where you live.”
“Jim, I am not dead,” I told him.
He touched my arm. “You aren’t dead,” he said, happy to look at me.
I was just as happy to see him. I looked down at his campfire. “Let’s make some breakfast.” After we ate, we lay back for a bit.
Jim asked, “Huck, if you’re here now, then who was killed at that hut (小屋)?” I told him the whole story.
“You’re pretty smart,” he said. “Even Tom Sawyer can’t come up with a better plan than that.” “And what about you, Jim? Why are you here on the island?” He looked uneasy. “Maybe I’d better not tell.” “Why not?” I asked.
“You won’t tell on (告发) me, will you?” he asked. “I promise I won’t.”
Jim moved closer to me. “I ran away.”
“Jim!”
“Huck, you said you wouldn’t tell.”
“Yeah, I promised,” I said, “and I’ll keep it.”
“The thing is” he told me, “Miss Watson always said she’d never sell me, but the other night I heard her tell the widow (寡妇) that she would sell me for $800.”
“That’s a lot of money,” I said.
The widow told Miss Watson she couldn’t do it, but I didn’t wait to hear what Miss Watson said. I climbed down the hill, stole (偷) a boat, and here I am.”
“Well, I’m glad you’re here,” I told him.
We stayed by the campfire for a while. Jim looked at the sky. The birds gathered together, and then they flew away.
“The storm’s coming,” Jim said. “It’s going to be worse.” I looked at our blankets, the only protection we had.
“Come on, Huck. I’ll show you something.” Jim led me to a small cave (洞穴). We ate our dinner there. Pretty soon the storm came. It rained heavily, and the wind blew so hard that it would bend (折弯) those trees.
We stayed there until the storm stopped.

An 80-year-old man was sitting on the sofa in his house along with his 45-year-old son. Suddenly a crow (乌鸦) landed on their window.
The father asked his son, “What is that?”
The son replied, “That is a crow.”
After a few minutes, the father asked his son for the second time, “What is this?”
The son said, “Father, I told you just now. It’s a crow.”
After a little while, the father asked his son the same question for the third time, “What is this?”
This time, the son said to his father in a low and cold tone, “It’s a crow, a crow.”
After a moment, the father yet again asked his son for the fourth time, “What is this?”
This time his son shouted at his father, “Why do you keep asking me the same question again and again? I have told you already, ‘IT IS A CROW’. Are you not able to understand this?”
A minute later the father went to his room and came back with a diary, which he had kept since his son was born. On opening a page, he asked his son to read that page.
Today my little son aged three was sitting with me on the sofa when a crow suddenly landed on the window edge. My son asked me 23 times what it was, and I replied him 23 times that it was a crow. I hugged him lovingly each time he asked me the same question. I didn’t at all feel angry, but instead felt affection for my son.
If your parents reach old age, do not look at them as a burden, but speak to them gently, and be kind to them. From today say this aloud, “I want to see my parents happy forever. They have cared for me ever since I was a little child. They have always showered me with love. I will take care of my old parents in the best way no matter how they behave.”
37. The writer mainly wants to ________.
A. tell us the function (功能) of a diary B. call on us to love our parents
C. teach us what a crow is D. introduce a pair of son and father
38. The underlined word “affection” probably means ________.
A. stress B. anger C. worry D. love
39. We can infer that the father wrote that piece of diary at the age of ________.
A. eighty B. three C. thirty-eight D. forty-five
40. The old man brought out the diary, which he had kept since his son was born, because ________.
A. he forgot what had happened B. he would like his son to read it
C. it could remind himself of the past D. he wanted to find what a crow was

【详解】句意:——你叔叔什么时候离开家乡去南京的? ——直到他在南京找到了一份新工作。
考查连词辨析。Since自从;Not until直到……才;Till直到(某个时候一直做某事);While当……时候。根据第一句的did可知,问过去的事情,所以回答也应该用一般过去时,A项的since后面要接一般过去时或者时间点,不能接句子该题是回答句子,排除A;C项表示该动作一直持续到till后面,与题意不符,排除C;D项while后面要接延续性动词或者进行时,该题不是,排除D。not…until表示“直到……才”,在句中要与助动词did一起连用,放在句首,首字母大写。故选B。
8. —Look, the man looks like Green.
—It _______ be him, for he _______ to America.

C. mustn’t; has gone D. can’t; has been
【答案】A
【解析】
【详解】句意:——看,那个人看起来像格林先生。——不可能是他,因为他已经去了美国。
考查情态动词和现在完成时。can’t不可能,不会; may not不可以;mustn’t禁止,不允许;has gone to去了,还没回来;has been to去过,已经回来了。在英语中,表示肯定的推测常用must be,表示否定的推测常用can’t;结合“for he...to America.”可知,这里是指去了美国还没回来,所以表示否定猜测。故选A。
9. My tooth hurts. I’ll have no choice but ________ tomorrow.
A. to have my bad tooth pull
B. have my bad tooth pulled
C. have my bad tooth pull
D. to have my bad tooth pulled
【答案】D
【解析】
【详解】句意:我牙齿痛。除了明天去将我的坏牙拔掉,我别无选择。
考查非谓语动词。have no choice but to do sth.为固定搭配,意为“别无选择,只能做某事”,B、C选项可排除。have sth. done为固定搭配,意为“使某事被做”,因此填写动词的过去分词pulled。故选D。
10. —I’m worried about tomorrow’s exam.
—________. I’m sure you will make it.
A. Take it easy B. Bad luck C. What a pity D. Don’t mention it
【答案】A
【解析】
【详解】句意:——我担心明天的英语考试。——不要紧张。我确信你会成功的。

Qiu Li opened the store with the hope of sharing the message that over-packaging and single-use plastics are harmful to the environment.
The store’s sales were low in the beginning. “The items are priced a little higher because they are organic (有机的),” Qiu explained.
What’s more, the new shopping method raised many questions. “Some customers point to a jar and ask if there are smaller packages,” she said. Qiu always explains to each customer that they can use their own cloth bags to take as much or as little as they want. She also offers to lend them used bottles or cloth bags. Customers are gradually getting used to this shopping method.
“Although running the business is difficult, I keep doing it to encourage (鼓励) a greener lifestyle,” Qiu said.

I jumped out from behind the tree.
Jim looked at me with scared eyes. Then he fell to his knees, put his hands together and said, “Don’t hurt me! Please don’t! I’ve never hurt a ghost. I’ve always respected dead people. Go back to the river where you live.”
“Jim, I am not dead,” I told him.
He touched my arm. “You aren’t dead,” he said, happy to look at me.
I was just as happy to see him. I looked down at his campfire. “Let’s make some breakfast.” After we ate, we lay back for a bit.
Jim asked, “Huck, if you’re here now, then who was killed at that hut (小屋)?” I told him the whole story.
“You’re pretty smart,” he said. “Even Tom Sawyer can’t come up with a better plan than that.” “And what about you, Jim? Why are you here on the island?” He looked uneasy. “Maybe I’d better not tell.” “Why not?” I asked.
“You won’t tell on (告发) me, will you?” he asked. “I promise I won’t.”
Jim moved closer to me. “I ran away.”
“Jim!”
“Huck, you said you wouldn’t tell.”
“Yeah, I promised,” I said, “and I’ll keep it.”
“The thing is,” he told me, “Miss Watson always said she’d never sell me, but the other night I heard her tell the widow (寡妇) that she would sell me for $800.”
“That’s a lot of money,” I said.
The widow told Miss Watson she couldn’t do it, but I didn’t wait to hear what Miss Watson said. I climbed down the hill, stole (偷) a boat, and here I am.”
“Well, I’m glad you’re here,” I told him.
We stayed by the campfire for a while. Jim looked at the sky. The birds gathered together, and then they flew away.
“The storm’s coming,” Jim said. “It’s going to be worse.” I looked at our blankets, the only protection we had.
“Come on, Huck. I’ll show you something.” Jim led me to a small cave (洞穴). We ate our dinner there. Pretty soon the storm came. It rained heavily, and the wind blew so hard that it would bend (折弯) those trees.
We stayed there until the storm stopped.

An 80-year-old man was sitting on the sofa in his house along with his 45-year-old son. Suddenly a crow (乌鸦) landed on their window.
The father asked his son, “What is that?”
The son replied, “That is a crow.”
After a few minutes, the father asked his son for the second time, “What is this?”
The son said, “Father, I told you just now. It’s a crow.”
After a little while, the father asked his son the same question for the third time, “What is this?”
This time, the son said to his father in a low and cold tone, “It’s a crow, a crow.”
After a moment, the father yet again asked his son for the fourth time, “What is this?”
This time his son shouted at his father, “Why do you keep asking me the same question again and again? I have told you already, ‘IT IS A CROW’. Are you not able to understand this?”
A minute later the father went to his room and came back with a diary, which he had kept since his son was born. On opening a page, he asked his son to read that page.
Today my little son aged three was sitting with me on the sofa when a crow suddenly landed on the window edge. My son asked me 23 times what it was, and I replied him 23 times that it was a crow. I hugged him lovingly each time he asked me the same question. I didn’t at all feel angry, but instead felt affection for my son.
If your parents reach old age, do not look at them as a burden, but speak to them gently, and be kind to them. From today say this aloud, “I want to see my parents happy forever. They have cared for me ever since I was a little child. They have always showered me with love. I will take care of my old parents in the best way no matter how they behave.”

【解析】
【导语】本文主要讲述了Jimmy喜欢吃冰淇淋但是不喜欢走路去买,因此他很胖,妈妈很担心他,因此提出了一个新规则,如果Jimmy想吃冰淇淋,他必须自己走到冰淇淋摊去买。在路上Jimmy几次想放弃,但是最后他坚持了下来,吃到了美味的冰淇淋,并且还收获了成就感。
【51题详解】
句意:如果他吃光他的蔬菜,那么每天晚饭后被允许吃一个冰淇淋。allow“允许”,此处主语“He”和动词“allow”之间是被动关系,应用被动语态be done,全文主体时态是一般过去时,主语是“He”,be动词应用“was”。故填was allowed。
【52题详解】
句意:他想要在家吃冰淇淋,因为他不想走到冰淇淋摊。eat“吃”,would like to do sth.“想要做某事”,因此此空应用动词不定式“to eat”。故填to eat。
【53题详解】
句意:那天晚上晚饭时分,Jimmy吃光了他的所有蔬菜,但是没有冰淇淋。此句为there be句型,主语“ice cream”是不可数名词,因此be动词用单数,全文时态为一般过去时,因此be动词应用过去式“was”。故填was。
【54题详解】
句意:但是,妈妈提出了一个新规定。come up with“提出”,固定短语,因此此处应用介词“with”。故填with。
【55题详解】
句意:Jimmy别无选择,只能同意,所以他们决定星期六走着去。此空位于“no”后,应用“choose”的名词choice“选择”,作have的宾语,have no choice but to do“除了……别无选择”。故填choice。
【56题详解】
句意:Jimmy想回去,但是他也想要冰淇淋。 “he also wanted ice cream”和“Jimmy did want to turn around”是转折关系,因此此处应用连词but“但是”。故填but。
【57题详解】
句意:几分钟后,Jimmy感到很累,他继续走路都有困难了。“have difficulty (in) doing sth.”表示“做某事有困难”,因此此处应用“walk”的动名词“walking”,作宾语。故填walking。
【58题详解】
句意:Jimmy开始走得快多了。much修饰比较级,因此此空应用“fast”的比较级faster“更快”。故填faster。
【59题详解】
句意:这是一段漫长的路程,但绝对值得付出努力。此处在句中作状语,修饰全句,应用“certain”的副词certainly“确定地”。故填certainly。
【60题详解】
句意:“我有一种成就感”,Jimmy兴奋地说。此空位于介词“of”后作宾语,应用“achieve”的名词achievement“成就”,a sense of achievement“一种成就感”。故填achievement。
