Lisa, 25, had a lot to do at work, plus visitors on the way: her parents were coming in for Thanksgiving from her hometown. But as she hurried down the subway stairs, she started to feel uncomfortably warm. By the time she got to the platform, Lisa felt weak and tired—maybe it hadn’t been a good idea to give blood the night before, she thought. She rested herself against a post close to the tracks. Several yards away, Frank, 43, and his girlfriend, Jennifer, found a spot close to where the front of the train would stop. They were deep in discussion about a house they were thinking of buying. But when he heard the scream, followed by someone yelling, “Oh, my God, she fell in!” Frank didn’t hesitate(犹豫). He jumped down to the tracks and ran some 40 feet toward the body lying on the rails. “No! Not you! ”his girlfriend shouted after him. She was right to be alarmed. By the time Frank reached Lisa, he could feel the tracks shaking and see the light coming. The train was about 20 seconds from the station. It was hard to lift her. She was just out. But he managed to raise her four feet to the platform(站台) so that bystanders could hold her by the legs and drag her away from the edge. That was where Lisa briefly regained consciousness(知觉), felt herself being pulled along the ground, and saw someone else holding her purse. Lisa thought she’d been robbed. A woman held her hand and a man gave his shirt to help stop the blood pouring from her head. And she tried to talk but she couldn’t, and that was when she realized how much pain she was in. Police and fire officials soon arrived, and Frank told the story to an officer. Jennifer said her boyfriend was calm on their 40-minute train ride downtown - just as he had been seconds after the rescue(营救), which made her think about her reaction at the time. “I saw the train coming and I was thinking he was going to die,” she explained. 41. What was the most probable cause for Lisa’s weakness? A. She had run a long way. B. She felt hot in the subway. C. She had done a lot of work. D. She had donated blood the night before. 42. Why did Jennifer try to stop her boyfriend? A. Because they would miss their train. B. Because he didn’t see the train coming. C Because she was sure Lisa was hard to lift. D. Because she was afraid the train would kill him. 43. How did Frank save Lisa? A. By lifting her to the platform. B. By helping her rise to her feet. C. By pulling her along the ground. D. By dragging her away from the edge. 44. When did Lisa become conscious again? A. When the train was leaving. B. After she was back on the platform. C. After the police and fire officials came. D. When a man was cleaning the blood from her head. 45. The passage is intended to _____________ A. warn us of the danger in the subway B. show us how to save people in the subway C. tell us about a subway rescue D. report a traffic accident C Hearing aids usually bring to mind images of ugly, ineffective devices mainly worn by the elderly. But this ill repute is quickly changing, as they’ve recently taken a turn thanks to two innovators, Dr. Marco Vietor and Paul Crusius, who now lead the fastest-growing hearing aid company in the world—hear.com. Hear.com’s years of research led to the development of two game-changing hearing aids—the Silk and Styletto. These impressive devices pack cutting-edge technology in designs that are practically invisible. They also use a unique way that has been clinically proven to deliver better-than-normal hearing so you can clearly understand speech in any environment. With additional features like Bluetooth and rechargeability today’s hearing aids are attracting even younger customers skilled in tech. But hear.com knows it’s not just about tech and design. They’ve put an enormous effort into the entire experience to make hearing care more accessible and more affordable. “Everyone should be able to hear well to live well,” Crusius says. “And it’s very individual. Each person’s hearing loss is different and requires a personalized approach to find the best solution.” “We hear with our brains, not our ears. And it takes at least 30 days for our brain to adjust and relearn how to hear again with new hearing aids,” Dr. Vietor says. “To guarantee your best outcome with hearing aids, we developed the industry’s first 30-day program, Hearing Success Program, so customers have that extra level of care and knowledge to succeed.” And it’s working. Hear.com has now helped more than 100,000 customers improve their hearing. Their A+ rating with the Better Business Bureau and 5-star rating on the customer review platform, Trustpilot, speaks for itself. Hear.com’s “never corporate” and “customer first” approach also helps drive the company’s success, encouraging employees to act like owners and put customers first. “We’re investing heavily in shaping our company culture,” Crusius says. “Individuals who work at hear.com say they are here to do more than a job. They’re helping change lives all around the world.” 46. What does the underlined part “this ill repute” in Para 1 refer to? A. Hearing aids being too expensive to afford. B. Hearing aids ignoring the needs of the elderly. C. Hearing aids developing at a really slow pace. D. Hearing aids being poor in design and function. 47. What does Para 2 mainly talk about? A. The popularity of hear.com’s hearing aids. B. The innovations in hear.com’s hearing aids. C. The benefits brought by hear.som’s hearing aids. D. The effort hear.com’s made to develop hearing aids. 48. What does the Hearing Success Program aim to do? A. Add attractive features to hearing aids. B. Help customers adjust to new hearing aids. C. Find the possible causes for customers’ hearing loss. D. Educate people about the consequences of hearing loss. 49. What can we infer about hear.com’s employees? A. They take pride in their work. B. They lack a sense of belonging. C. They reject the company culture. D. They cooperate well with review platforms. 50. What does the passage focus on? A. Products and services of a hearing aid company. B. Hearing problems in the elderly. C. The company culture of hear.com. D. Younger customers’ interest in hearing aids. D Kids and teens are often dismissive of praise from their parents. I am sure that parents out there can relate to this, as we all have been told at one time or another by one or several of our kids, “Stop it, Mom.” or even, “You’re just saying that because you are my parents, and you have to say that.” I can assure you, though, that they are listening. They will probably not thank you for this praise until they are in their twenties, but don’t let that stop you from praising them during their childhood and teen years. Just be careful how you praise them. A little praise may go a long way-especially if it is the right kind of praise. It appears that the way to go is to praise their efforts according to a study by Brummelman of Utrecht University in the Netherlands and his colleagues. These researchers concluded that kids should be praised primarily for their efforts, rather than for their personal characteristics, because if they are praised for their efforts, then a poor performance is more likely to be seen as a glitch (小故障), rather than a valid reflection of who they are as individuals. Let’s think about this together. If you are a teenager or a child of any age and are constantly told how brilliant you are, then when you do poorly on a test or a few tests, you may feel like you have suddenly lost your status as brilliant and may now feel ashamed that you are merely average or even dumb. If you are a girl who is constantly being told how beautiful you are, then on a day when you don’t look or feel so good, you may decide that you are unattractive. This is the problem that develops when we are praising our kids for global personality characteristics that they can’t always live up to. 51. The intended readers of this passage are _____. A. doctors B. parents C. teachers D. children 52. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the text? A. All children should be praised. B. There’s no need to praise kids and teens. C. Praise should be beyond children’s expectations. D. Teens often pay no attention to their parents’ praise. 53. Which of the following is the right kind of praise according to the text? A. You are a great artist. B. You are very intelligent. C. You have a special gift for music. D. Your painting has indeed improved due to your efforts. 54. The underlined word “dumb” in the last paragraph can be replaced by A. stupid B. unique C. curious D. honest 55. What’s the text mainly about? A. The reasons for praising kids and teens. B. The right ways to praise kids and teens. C. The benefits of praising kids and teens. D. The importance of praising kids and teens. 第四部分:阅读表达(共5 小题; 每小题 2分,满分 10 分) 阅读短文,按照题目要求用英语回答问题。 When Li Toh first came to China to pursue his flute (长笛) dream, the Malaysian man had never expected that his dream could take root in China. Toh’s love for the Chinese bamboo flute began in primary school when his elder brother joined the Chinese orchestra in middle school to learn to play the musical instrument. He said the clear sound of the bamboo flute guided him onto the road of flute learning. As he got older, Toh went to Singapore for further study. According to Toh, there were few professional Chinese bamboo flute teachers in Malaysia, and the learning environment for bamboo flute players was limited. In 2005, Toh made a bold decision. He applied for retention (保留) of his admission qualifications to the university he had already attended, and set off for Beijing. A new chapter of his life thus began. After getting his bachelor’s degree, Toh started to teach the Chinese bamboo flute in Malaysia and Singapore. His desire to improve his performance skills and his thirst for knowledge drove him back to Beijing to continue his studies. Toh had planned to return to Malaysia after graduation, but upon graduation, Guangxi Arts University offered him a job. During his stay in China, he has also joined teams and performed in countries such as Vietnam, the Philippines and Cambodia. They tried to combine the Chinese bamboo flute with local musical instruments. Communication and innovation promoted the development of diverse art culture and enriched the cultural layers of art. In recent years, Toh would return to Malaysia during holidays to promote the art of the Chinese bamboo flute. Having been in China for more than a decade, Toh’s love for the country has long been rooted in his heart, and he is looking forward to the prosperity and development of cultural industries in China. 56.

Lisa, 25, had a lot to do at work, plus visitors on the way: her parents were coming in for Thanksgiving from her hometown. But as she hurried down the subway stairs, she started to feel uncomfortably warm. By the time she got to the platform, Lisa felt weak and tired—maybe it hadn’t been a good idea to give blood the night before, she thought. She rested herself against a post close to the tracks. Several yards away, Frank, 43, and his girlfriend, Jennifer, found a spot close to where the front of the train would stop. They were deep in discussion about a house they were thinking of buying. But when he heard the scream, followed by someone yelling, “Oh, my God, she fell in!” Frank didn’t hesitate(犹豫). He jumped down to the tracks and ran some 40 feet toward the body lying on the rails. “No! Not you! ”his girlfriend shouted after him. She was right to be alarmed. By the time Frank reached Lisa, he could feel the tracks shaking and see the light coming. The train was about 20 seconds from the station. It was hard to lift her. She was just out. But he managed to raise her four feet to the platform(站台) so that bystanders could hold her by the legs and drag her away from the edge. That was where Lisa briefly regained consciousness(知觉), felt herself being pulled along the ground, and saw someone else holding her purse. Lisa thought she’d been robbed. A woman held her hand and a man gave his shirt to help stop the blood pouring from her head. And she tried to talk but she couldn’t, and that was when she realized how much pain she was in. Police and fire officials soon arrived, and Frank told the story to an officer. Jennifer said her boyfriend was calm on their 40-minute train ride downtown - just as he had been seconds after the rescue(营救), which made her think about her reaction at the time. “I saw the train coming and I was thinking he was going to die,” she explained. 41. What was the most probable cause for Lisa’s weakness? A. She had run a long way. B. She felt hot in the subway. C. She had done a lot of work. D. She had donated blood the night before. 42. Why did Jennifer try to stop her boyfriend? A. Because they would miss their train. B. Because he didn’t see the train coming. C. Because she was sure Lisa was hard to lift. D. Because she was afraid the train would kill him. 43. How did Frank save Lisa? A. By lifting her to the platform. B. By helping her rise to her feet. C. By pulling her along the ground. D. By dragging her away from the edge. 44 When did Lisa become conscious again? A. When the train was leaving. B. After she was back on the platform. C. After the police and fire officials came. D. When a man was cleaning the blood from her head. 45. The passage is intended to _____________ A. warn us of the danger in the subway B. show us how to save people in the subway C. tell us about a subway rescue D. report a traffic accident 【答案】41. D 42.

But this ill repute is quickly changing, as they’ve recently taken a turn thanks to two innovators, Dr. Marco Vietor and Paul Crusius, who now lead the fastest-growing hearing aid company in the world—hear.com. Hear.com’s years of research led to the development of two game-changing hearing aids—the Silk and Styletto. These impressive devices pack cutting-edge technology in designs that are practically invisible. They also use a unique way that has been clinically proven to deliver better-than-normal hearing so you can clearly understand speech in any environment. With additional features like Bluetooth and rechargeability, today’s hearing aids are attracting even younger customers skilled in tech. But hear.com knows it’s not just about tech and design. They’ve put an enormous effort into the entire experience to make hearing care more accessible and more affordable. “Everyone should be able to hear well to live well,” Crusius says. “And it’s very individual. Each person’s hearing loss is different and requires a personalized approach to find the best solution.” “We hear with our brains, not our ears. And it takes at least 30 days for our brain to adjust and relearn how to hear again with new hearing aids,” Dr. Vietor says. “To guarantee your best outcome with hearing aids, we developed the industry’s first 30-day program, Hearing Success Program, so customers have that extra level of care and knowledge to succeed.” And it’s working. Hear.com has now helped more than 100,000 customers improve their hearing. Their A+ rating with the Better Business Bureau and 5-star rating on the customer review platform, Trustpilot, speaks for itself. Hear.com’s “never corporate” and “customer first” approach also helps drive the company’s success, encouraging employees to act like owners and put customers first. “We’re investing heavily in shaping our company culture,” Crusius says. “Individuals who work at hear.com say they are here to do more than a job. They’re helping change lives all around the world.” 46. What does the underlined part “this ill repute” in Para 1 refer to? A. Hearing aids being too expensive to afford. B. Hearing aids ignoring the needs of the elderly. C. Hearing aids developing at a really slow pace. D. Hearing aids being poor in design and function. 47. What does Para 2 mainly talk about? A. The popularity of hear.com’s hearing aids. B. The innovations in hear.com’s hearing aids. C The benefits brought by hear.som’s hearing aids. D. The effort hear.com’s made to develop hearing aids. 48. What does the Hearing Success Program aim to do? A. Add attractive features to hearing aids. B. Help customers adjust to new hearing aids. C. Find the possible causes for customers’ hearing loss. D. Educate people about the consequences of hearing loss. 49. What can we infer about hear.com’s employees? A. They take pride in their work. B. They lack a sense of belonging. C. They reject the company culture. D. They cooperate well with review platforms. 50. What does the passage focus on? A. Products and services of a hearing aid company. B. Hearing problems in the elderly. C. The company culture of hear.com. D. Younger customers’ interest in hearing aids. 【答案】46. D 47. B 48. B 49. A 50. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述Dr. Marco Vietor和Paul Crusius领导的世界上增长最快的助听器公司,尤其讲述助听器公司的产品和服务。 【46题详解】 词义猜测题。根据第一段“Hearing aids usually bring to mind images of ugly, ineffective devices mainly worn by the elderly.(助听器通常给人的印象是主要由老年人佩戴的丑陋、无效的设备。)”可推测下文“this ill repute”说的是上文的丑陋、无效的设备,指的是助听器在设计和功能上很差,故选D。 【47题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第二段“Hear. com’s years of research led to the development of two game-changing hearing aids—the Silk and Styletto. These impressive devices pack cutting-edge technology in designs that are practically invisible. They also use a unique way that has been clinically proven to deliver better-than-normal hearing so you can clearly understand speech in any environment. With additional features like Bluetooth and rechargeability, today’s hearing aids are attracting even younger customers skilled in tech.( Hear.com经过多年的研究,开发出了两款改变助听器游戏规则的助听器——Silk和Styletto。这些令人印象深刻的设备以几乎无形的设计融合了尖端技术。他们还使用了一种经临床证明的独特方式,可以提供比正常听力更好的听力,因此您可以在任何环境中清楚地理解语音。如今的助听器有了蓝牙和可充电等额外功能,甚至吸引了精通科技的年轻消费者。)”可知本段主要讲述hear.com公司对助听器的创新,故选B。 【48题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“ “We hear with our brains, not our ears. And it takes at least 30 days for our brain to adjust and relearn how to hear again with new hearing aids,” Dr. Vietor says. “To guarantee your best outcome with hearing aids, we developed the industry’s first 30-day program, Hearing Success Program, so customers have that extra level of care and knowledge to succeed.” (“我们用大脑听,而不是耳朵。我们的大脑需要至少30天的时间来调整和重新学习如何使用新的助听器再次听到声音,”维特博士说。“为了保证您使用助听器的最佳效果,我们开发了行业内第一个30天计划——听力成功计划,这样客户就有了额外的护理和知识来获得成功。” ) ”可知我们的大脑需要至少30天的时间来调整和重新学习如何使用新的助听器再次听到声音,所以听力成功计划就是帮助客户适应新的助听器,故选B。 【49题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“ “We’re investing heavily in shaping our company culture,” Crusius says. “Individuals who work at hear.com say they are here to do more than a job. They’re helping change lives all around the world.” (Crusius说:“我们在塑造公司文化方面投入了大量资金。在hear.com工作的人说,他们在这里不仅仅是为了工作。他们正在帮助改变世界各地的生活。”)”可推断hear.com的员工为他们的工作感到自豪,故选A。 【50题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文,尤其第一段“Hearing aids usually bring to mind images of ugly, ineffective devices mainly worn by the elderly. But this ill repute is quickly changing, as they’ve recently taken a turn thanks to two innovators, Dr. Marco Vietor and Paul Crusius, who now lead the fastest-growing hearing aid company in the world—hear.com.(助听器通常给人的印象是主要由老年人佩戴的丑陋、无效的设备。但这种坏名声正在迅速改变,因为他们最近有了一个转折,多亏了两位创新者,Dr. Marco Vietor和Paul Crusius,他们现在领导着世界上增长最快的助听器公司。)”可知文章主要讲述的Hear. com公司的创新产品和服务,故选A。 D Kids and teens are often dismissive of praise from their parents. I am sure that parents out there can relate to this, as we all have been told at one time or another by one or several of our kids, “Stop it, Mom.” or even, “You’re just saying that because you are my parents, and you have to say that.” I can assure you, though, that they are listening. They will probably not thank you for this praise until they are in their twenties, but don’t let that stop you from praising them during their childhood and teen years. Just be careful how you praise them. A little praise may go a long way-especially if it is the right kind of praise. It appears that the way to go is to praise their efforts according to a study by Brummelman of Utrecht University in the Netherlands and his colleagues. These researchers concluded that kids should be praised primarily for their efforts, rather than for their personal characteristics, because if they are praised for their efforts, then a poor performance is more likely to be seen as a glitch (小故障), rather than a valid reflection of who they are as individuals. Let’s think about this together. If you are a teenager or a child of any age and are constantly told how brilliant you are, then when you do poorly on a test or a few tests, you may feel like you have suddenly lost your status as brilliant and may now feel ashamed that you are merely average or even dumb. If you are a girl who is constantly being told how beautiful you are, then on a day when you don’t look or feel so good, you may decide that you are unattractive. This is the problem that develops when we are praising our kids for global personality characteristics that they can’t always live up to. 51. The intended readers of this passage are _____. A. doctors B. parents C. teachers D. children 52. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the text? A. All children should be praised. B. There’s no need to praise kids and teens. C. Praise should be beyond children’s expectations. D. Teens often pay no attention to their parents’ praise. 53. Which of the following is the right kind of praise according to the text? A. You are a great artist. B. You are very intelligent. C. You have a special gift for music. D. Your painting has indeed improved due to your efforts. 54. The underlined word “dumb” in the last paragraph can be replaced by A. stupid B. unique C. curious D. honest 55. What’s the text mainly about? A. The reasons for praising kids and teens. B. The right ways to praise kids and teens. C. The benefits of praising kids and teens. D. The importance of praising kids and teens. 【答案】51. B 52. D 53. D 54. A 55. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一项研究发现,该研究通过分析孩子们对赞美的不同反应,提出应该主要根据孩子的努力来赞美他们,而不是根据他们的个人特点。 【51题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章内容可知,文章主要讨论的是父母如何正确地赞美孩子,包括孩子对赞美的反应,如何根据孩子的努力来赞美他们,而不是根据他们的个人特点,以及赞美孩子时需要注意的问题。因此,文章的预期读者是父母。故选B。 【52题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第一段“Kids and teens are often dismissive of praise from their parents. I am sure that parents out there can relate to this, as we all have been told at one time or another by one or several of our kids, “Stop it, Mom.” or even, “You’re just saying that because you are my parents, and you have to say that.”(孩子和青少年往往对父母的表扬不屑一顾。我相信父母们都能体会到这一点,因为我们都曾被一个或几个孩子告诉过:“别这样,妈妈。甚至,“你们这么说是因为你们是我的父母,你们必须这么说。”)”可知,孩子总是不太在意家长的表扬。故选D。 【53题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第二段“These researchers concluded that kids should be praised primarily for their efforts, rather than for their personal characteristics, because if they are praised for their efforts, then a poor performance is more likely to be seen as a glitch (小故障), rather than a valid reflection of who they are as individuals.(这些研究人员得出结论,孩子们应该主要被表扬他们的努力,而不是他们的个人特征,因为如果他们的努力得到表扬,那么糟糕的表现更有可能被视为一个小故障,而不是对他们作为个人的有效反映。)”可知,研究人员认为表扬孩子应该表扬孩子的努力。选项D“Your painting has indeed improved due to your efforts.(由于你的努力,你的画确实有了进步。)”符合研究人员的表扬要求。故选D。 【54题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线单词上文的“you are merely average(自己只是普通)”以及划线单词前的“even”可判断,你只是一般人,甚至是愚蠢。选项A“stupid (愚蠢的)”;选项B“unique (独特的)”;选项C“curious (好奇的)”;选项D“honest (诚实的)”。故选A。 【55题详解】 主旨大意题。根据文章第一段“Just be careful how you praise them. A little praise may go a long way-especially if it is the right kind of praise.(只是要注意你赞美他们的方式。一点表扬可能会有很长的路要走——尤其是如果是正确的表扬。)”、第二段“It appears that the way to go is to praise their efforts according to a study by Brummelman of Utrecht University in the Netherlands and his colleagues.(根据荷兰乌得勒支大学的Brummelman和他的同事的一项研究,似乎要走的路是赞扬他们的努力。)”以及全文内容可知,文章主要讨论的是如何正确地赞美孩子和青少年,即正确的赞美方式。文章首先提到孩子们经常对父母的赞美不屑一顾,但父母应该继续赞美他们,只是要注意赞美的方式。接着,文章通过一项研究指出,应该主要根据孩子的努力来赞美他们,而不是根据他们的个人特点。因此,文章主要讨论的是如何正确地赞美孩子和青少年。故选B。 第四部分:阅读表达(共5 小题; 每小题 2分,满分 10 分) 阅读短文,按照题目要求用英语回答问题。 When Li Toh first came to China to pursue his flute (长笛) dream, the Malaysian man had never expected that his dream could take root in China. Toh’s love for the Chinese bamboo flute began in primary school when his elder brother joined the Chinese orchestra in middle school to learn to play the musical instrument. He said the clear sound of the bamboo flute guided him onto the road of flute learning. As he got older, Toh went to Singapore for further study. According to Toh, there were few professional Chinese bamboo flute teachers in Malaysia, and the learning environment for bamboo flute players was limited. In 2005, Toh made a bold decision. He applied for retention (保留) of his admission qualifications to the university he had already attended, and set off for Beijing. A new chapter of his life thus began. After getting his bachelor’s degree, Toh started to teach the Chinese bamboo flute in Malaysia and Singapore. His desire to improve his performance skills and his thirst for knowledge drove him back to Beijing to continue his studies. Toh had planned to return to Malaysia after graduation, but upon graduation, Guangxi Arts University offered him a job. During his stay in China, he has also joined teams and performed in countries such as Vietnam, the Philippines and Cambodia. They tried to combine the Chinese bamboo flute with local musical instruments. Communication and innovation promoted the development of diverse art culture and enriched the cultural layers of art. In recent years, Toh would return to Malaysia during holidays to promote the art of the Chinese bamboo flute. Having been in China for more than a decade, Toh’s love for the country has long been rooted in his heart, and he is looking forward to the prosperity and development of cultural industries in China. 56. What made Toh start learning the bamboo flute? (no more than 4 words) __________________________________________________________________ 57. What does the underlined word in Paragraph 3 mean? (1 word) __________________________________________________________________ 58. Why did Toh return to Beijing? (no more than 13 words) __________________________________________________________________ 59. What did Toh do in China after graduation? (no more than 12 words) __________________________________________________________________ 60. What do you think of Toh? Please give your reasons. (no more than 20 words) __________________________________________________________________ 【答案】56. Its clear sound. 57. Brave/Courageous. 58. Because he wanted to improve his performance skills and get more knowledge. Or: Because of his desire to improve his performance skills and to get knowledge. 59. He taught at Guangxi Arts University and performed in different countries. 60. He is a determined man, because he chose to go to Beijing to learn the Chinese bamboo flute better. 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。主要讲述了马来西亚人Toh学习中国长笛的经历。 【56题详解】 考查细节理解。根据第二段中“He said the clear sound of the bamboo flute guided him onto the road of flute learning.”(他说,竹笛清脆的声音引导他走上了学习长笛的道路。)可知,清脆的竹笛声引导他走上学习长笛的道路。故答案是:Its clear sound. 【57题详解】 考查词义猜测。根据第三段中“According to Toh, there were few professional Chinese bamboo flute teachers in Malaysia, and the learning environment for bamboo flute players was limited.”(据Toh介绍,马来西亚专业的中国竹笛老师很少,竹笛手的学习环境也很有限。)以及“He applied for retention (保留) of his admission qualifications to the university he had already attended, and set off for Beijing. A new chapter of his life thus began.”(他申请保留已经上过的那所大学的录取资格,动身前往北京。他人生的新篇章就此开始了。)由此可知,此处为2005年,Toh做了一个大胆的决定。故可猜测划线单词bold为“大胆的,勇敢的”意思,故答案是:Brave/Courageous。 【58题详解】 考查细节理解。根据第四段中“His desire to improve his performance skills and his thirst for knowledge drove him back to Beijing to continue his studies.”(他渴望提高自己的表演技巧和对知识的渴望驱使他回到北京继续他的学业。)可知,Toh回到北京是因为他想提高自己的表演技巧,获得更多的知识。故答案是:Because he wanted to improve his performance skills and get more knowledge. 【59题详解】 考查细节理解。根据倒数第二段中“Toh had planned to return to Malaysia after graduation, but upon graduation, Guangxi Arts University offered him a job. During his stay in China, he has also joined teams and performed in countries such as Vietnam, the Philippines and Cambodia. They tried to combine the Chinese bamboo flute with local musical instruments.”(Toh原计划毕业后回马来西亚,但毕业后,广西艺术大学为他提供了一份工作。在中国期间,他还加入了越南、菲律宾和柬埔寨等国家的团队并进行了演出。他们试图把中国的竹笛和当地的乐器结合起来。)可知,毕业后Toh在中国广西艺术学院任教,并在多国演出。故答案是:He taught at Guangxi Arts University and performed in different countries. 【60题详解】 考查推理判断。根据文章大意以及第一段“When Li Toh first came to China to pursue his flute (长笛) dream, the Malaysian man had never expected that his dream could take root in China.”(当Li Toh第一次来到中国追求他的长笛梦想时,这位马来西亚人从未想到他的梦想可以在中国扎根。)和第三段中“In 2005, Toh made a bold decision. He applied for retention of his admission qualifications to the university he had already attended, and set off for Beijing. A new chapter of his life thus began.”(2005年,Toh做了一个大胆的决定。他申请保留已经上过的那所大学的录取资格,动身前往北京。他人生的新篇章就此开始了。)由此可推知,Toh是一个有决心的人,因为他选择去北京更好地学习中国竹笛。故答案是:He is a determined man, because he chose to go to Beijing to learn the Chinese bamboo flute better. 第五部分:书面表达 (共1题; 满分 25 分) 61. 假设你是晨光中学的学生李津,通过交换生项目在英国某中学就读,校方为加强中英文化交流,将举办“中国工坊” 活动。该活动主题涉及中华美食、中国传统手工艺、中国书法和绘画,拟招募学生现场教授相关技能。请按照以下提示,写一封申请信: (1)申请参加本次活动; (2)阐述你对本次文化交流活动意义的理解; (3)结合个人兴趣和特长,说明拟教授何种技能,并阐述原因。 参考词汇:中国工坊 Chinese Workshop 中华美食 Chinese cuisine 手工艺 handicraft 书法 calligraphy 注意: (1)词数不少于100; (2)可适当加入细节,使内容充实、行文连贯; (3)开头和结尾已给出,不计入总词数。 Dear Sir/Madam ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Sincerely yours, Li Jin 【答案】Dear Sir/Madam, I am Li Jin, an exchange student from China.
