B In 2015, Brian Peterson, a car designer for Kia Motors, moved to Santa Ana, California, with his wife, Vanessa. There, they often met a homeless man named Matt Faris, who would frequently shout on the street corner, sometimes disturbing their sleep. Initially, Peterson had no interaction with Faris, but everything changed after reading the book Love Does, which stressed the power of love in action. Inspired by the book, Peterson decided to introduce himself to Faris. In their first conversation, Peterson learned that Faris had moved to Southern California from Kentucky in pursuit of a music career but had fallen on hard times, living on the streets for over a decade. Despite Faris’s rough appearance, Peterson saw beauty in him and felt forced to paint his portrait, even though he hadn’t picked up a paintbrush in eight years. Faris agreed, marking the start of a transformative project. So Peterson went to establish Faces of Santa Ana, a nonprofit organization dedicated to painting portraits of unhoused individuals in the community. He captures each subject’s personality through colors and then sells the portraits, splitting the earnings with the subject. Half of the funds are placed in a “love account”, which helps them to address their personal needs. However, Peterson learned the importance of asking people directly how they wanted to use the money rather than assuming what they need most. For example, Faris used the funds from his portrait to record an album, while another subject, Kimberly Sondoval, used the money to help pay her daughter’s rent. Over the years, Peterson’s project expanded, leading him to found Faces of Mankind, where artists nationwide paint portraits of the homeless. To date, Peterson has personally painted 41 portraits. His work not only provides financial assistance but also fosters understanding and connection between the buyers and the subjects, with many buyers developing friendships with the individuals they initially overlooked. Peterson hopes his work will continue to change how people perceive the homeless. 4. What inspired Brian Peterson to approach Matt Faris? A. He saw Faris had artistic talent. B. He read a book about love in action. C. He wanted to complain about Faris’s shouting. D. He intended to found a nonprofit organization. 5. How does Brian Peterson deal with the money he earns from selling the portraits? A. He donates it to charities. B. He uses it to expand his project. C. He sponsors the homeless to buy art supplies. D. He keeps half and gives the other half to his subjects. 6. What is true about Peterson in Paragraph 3? A. He believes in giving without accepting. B. He prefers to decide how the money should be spent. C. He helps people based on their personal needs. D. He funds them to develop art-related projects. 7. What would be the best title for this passage? A. Painting for Homeless B. Art Can Cure Homelessness C. The Story of Matt Faris D. Selling Portraits for Charity C BLACK MYTH: WUKONG, China’s first AAA video game, has proved a big success. Within an hour of its release on August 20, the game rose to the top of the global chart on Steam, a leading gaming platform. Over 2.2 million active players were recorded at its peak. Adapted from the Chinese classic Journey to the West, Black Myth: Wukong recreates the story of its most beloved character. What sets the game apart is its stunning graphics, immersive game play and its deep connection with traditional culture. Players not only enjoy the game for its combat (打斗) and storyline but also for its fine recreation of historical sites. “The ancient buildings in the game are well integrated with the storyline. I’m planning to visit the filming locations soon to experience the cultural heritage first hand,” said a player from Beijing. In addition to artistic illustrations, the game developers used 3D scanning technology to recreate these ancient wonders. This allows for a more lifelike insight into China’s architectural past. The game’s impact reaches beyond the virtual world, though. An interest in ancient architecture has grown among young people. In response, Shanxi Province, one of the game’s key filming locations, is actively promoting its rich cultural resources to meet the growing demand. Known as the “treasure of ancient Chinese architecture,” Shanxi is home to 531 nationally protected cultural heritage sites. They make up 10.5 percent of China’s total, the highest in the nation. Among 36 filming locations of Black Myth: Wukong, 27 are located in Shanxi. “We’ve received oceans of visitors a day since July, a threefold increase year on year (同比),” said Liu Xiaogang, the director of the scenic area. Most of the visitors are fans of the popular game who have traveled long distances to the location, he added. On the day of the game’s release, tourism interest in Shanxi reportedly doubled compared to the previous month. To capitalize on this trend, Shanxi quickly rolled out an ancient architecture tour on August 22, Besides the “Follow Wukong Through Shanxi” route map, it has also developed a variety of cultural products. 8. What distinguishes “Black Myth: Wukong” from other games? A. It is the most successful game. B. It employs advanced technology. C. It features attractive characters. D. It is integrated with traditional culture. 9. How does the author show the game’s impact on tourism? A. Using statistics. B. Giving a definition. C. Listing examples. D. Making a comparison. 10. What does the phrase “capitalize on” mean in the last paragraph mean? A. Take advantage of. B. Make money from. C. Catch up with. D. Catch on. 11. What can we learn from the last two paragraphs? A. The game sparked interest in ancient Chinese literature. B. The government launched measures to promote tourism. C. Tourism interest doubled in Shanxi compared to last year. D. Most protected cultural heritage sites are located in Shanxi. D Kids everywhere love to play. And they know that a ball is a perfect thing to play with. Now scientists report bumblebees (大黄蜂) seem to know the same thing, making bumblebees the first insects known to play. Lots of animals play: But the behavior is best known in mammals (哺乳动物) and birds. For many animals, playing is often seen as a kind of practice for things they’ll have to deal with in later life. But before this, there were no reports of insects playing. Dr. Lars Chittka did an earlier experiment, where he trained bumblebees to roll balls into a goal for food. He noticed some bees were rolling balls even when they weren’t rewarded. He wondered whether they were playing for rewards or not. To test the idea, he with other scientists set up a new experiment. First, they marked 45 young bumblebees, both male and female, between one and 23 days old. Then they set up a clear pathway from the bumblebees’ nest to a feeding area. On either side of the open pathway, small colored wooden balls were placed. On one side of the path, the balls couldn’t move. On the other side, the balls could roll around. For three hours, a day over 14 days, the scientists opened the pathway. The bumblebees never had to leave the pathway to find food, but they left anyway. They weren’t so interested in the side where the balls couldn’t move, but they made lots of visits to the side with the rolling balls. Grabbing the balls with their legs, the bumblebees would beat their wings to pull on the balls, causing them to roll. The 45 marked bumblebees did this 910 times during the experiment. Though some only did it once, others did it a lot. The scientists found the younger bumblebees spent more time rolling balls, and that males seemed more likely to play than females. The scientists say it’s not clear why the bumblebees roll the balls or whether they enjoy it. But the experiment raises important questions about how the insects’ minds work and whether they have feelings. 12. What is the common view about animals’ playing behavior? A. A form of fight. B. A form of training. C. A form of labor. D. A form of performance. 13. Why did Dr. Lars Chittka conduct the new experiment? A. To train bumblebees to play with balls. B. To figure out bumblebees’ feeding style. C. To explore if bumblebees play without a reward. D. To observe how bees interact with different objects: 14. What did the scientists find during the experiment? A. Bumblebees only played with balls when food was involved. B. Female bumblebees were more interested in playing than males. C. Older bumblebees spent more time rolling balls than younger ones. D. Bumblebees preferred balls that could roll to those that couldn’t. 15. What is the main idea of the text? A. The purpose of insects playing is to prepare for life. B. Dr. Lars Chittka discovered a new way to train bees. C. Bumblebees are the first insects known to play. D. Playing is common among mammals and birds. 第二节 阅读下面的文章，从文章后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） Random Acts of Kindness for Friends Be kind to friends.

While we were thinking over the cost, our attention was drawn to the list of attractions. Among the various activities, we noticed that our favorite band - Eagles was going to perform. We couldn’t help but break into singing our favorite song by them. What added to our excitement was the pie contest in the poster, a delightful reminder of our shared memory. It used to be the most popular event in our community. But thinking of the expensive tickets, which seemed to be a shadow over our excitement, we all sighed.

They were the very ones we had seen in the poster! My dad explained that his old partner had made a request to hang a poster here for the Harvest Fair, and in return, he offered us free passes. Much to my delight, there were six tickets for five people in our family and an extra one for my friend! The news was like a breath of fresh air, bringing unexpected joy into our day. We could all set out to experience the fair together, no one missing out. Just then, Mrs. Smith, out awesome 80-year-old neighbor, walked unsteadily towards us.“I just saw the poster in your window.

Faris agreed, marking the start of a transformative project. So Peterson went to establish Faces of Santa Ana, a nonprofit organization dedicated to painting portraits of unhoused individuals in the community. He captures each subject’s personality through colors and then sells the portraits, splitting the earnings with the subject. Half of the funds are placed in a “love account”, which helps them to address their personal needs. However, Peterson learned the importance of asking people directly how they wanted to use the money rather than assuming what they need most. For example, Faris used the funds from his portrait to record an album, while another subject, Kimberly Sondoval, used the money to help pay her daughter’s rent. Over the years, Peterson’s project expanded, leading him to found Faces of Mankind, where artists nationwide paint portraits of the homeless. To date, Peterson has personally painted 41 portraits. His work not only provides financial assistance but also fosters understanding and connection between the buyers and the subjects, with many buyers developing friendships with the individuals they initially overlooked. Peterson hopes his work will continue to change how people perceive the homeless. 4. What inspired Brian Peterson to approach Matt Faris? A. He saw Faris had artistic talent. B. He read a book about love in action. C. He wanted to complain about Faris’s shouting. D. He intended to found a nonprofit organization. 5. How does Brian Peterson deal with the money he earns from selling the portraits? A. He donates it to charities. B. He uses it to expand his project. C. He sponsors the homeless to buy art supplies. D. He keeps half and gives the other half to his subjects. 6. What is true about Peterson in Paragraph 3? A. He believes in giving without accepting. B. He prefers to decide how the money should be spent. C. He helps people based on their personal needs. D. He funds them to develop art-related projects. 7. What would be the best title for this passage? A. Painting for Homeless B. Art Can Cure Homelessness C. The Story of Matt Faris D. Selling Portraits for Charity 【答案】4. B 5. D 6. C 7. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了Brian Peterson受到一本书的启发，开始为无家可归者画肖像，并创建了相关项目，通过艺术帮助无家可归者，改变人们对无家可归者的看法，促进社会理解和联系。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“Initially, Peterson had no interaction with Faris, but everything changed after reading the book Love Does, which stressed the power of love in action. Inspired by the book, Peterson decided to introduce himself to Faris. (起初，Peterson和Faris没有任何互动，但在阅读了Love Does一书后，一切都改变了，这本书强调了爱在行动中的力量。受到这本书的启发，Peterson决定向Faris介绍自己)”可知，Peterson读了一本关于行动中的爱的书，受到了启发，决定去接近Faris。故选B项。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“He captures each subject’s personality through colors and then sells the portraits, splitting the earnings with the subject. Half of the funds are placed in a “love account”, which helps them to address their personal needs. (他通过色彩捕捉每个绘画对象的个性，然后出售这些肖像，与绘画对象平分收入。一半的资金被存入一个“爱心账户”，帮助他们解决个人需求)”可知，Peterson把卖肖像画赚来的钱平分，一半存进账户，另一半给绘画对象。故选D项。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“However, Peterson learned the importance of asking people directly how they wanted to use the money rather than assuming what they need most. For example, Faris used the funds from his portrait to record an album, while another subject, Kimberly Sondoval, used the money to help pay her daughter’s rent. (然而，Peterson明白了直接询问人们想如何使用这笔钱的重要性，而不是假设他们最需要什么。例如，Faris用他的肖像所得的钱录制了一张专辑，而另一个绘画对象Kimberly Sondoval用这笔钱帮助支付女儿的房租)”可知，Peterson根据无家可归者的个人需要来帮助他们。故选C项。 【7题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是最后一段中“Over the years, Peterson’s project expanded, leading him to found Faces of Mankind, where artists nationwide paint portraits of the homeless. To date, Peterson has personally painted 41 portraits. His work not only provides financial assistance but also fosters understanding and connection between the buyers and the subjects, with many buyers developing friendships with the individuals they initially overlooked. (多年来，Peterson的项目不断扩大，他创立了Faces of Mankind，全国各地的艺术家都为无家可归的人画肖像。到目前为止，Peterson已经亲自画了41幅肖像画。他的工作不仅提供了经济援助，还促进了买家和绘画对象之间的理解和联系，许多买家与他们最初忽视的个人建立了友谊)”可知，文章主要讲述了Brian Peterson如何通过绘画肖像来帮助无家可归者，并通过这种方式改变人们对无家可归者的看法。A项“为无家可归者绘画”最能概括文章的主要内容，适合作为文章标题。B项“艺术可以治愈无家可归者”中“治愈”夸大了Peterson的行为和项目的影响；C项“Matt Faris的故事”仅提及Matt Faris，未体现Peterson的项目和它对多个无家可归者的影响；D项“为慈善事业出售肖像”虽然接近文章主题，但没有明确指出Peterson帮助的对象是无家可归者。故选A项。 C BLACK MYTH: WUKONG, China’s first AAA video game, has proved a big success. Within an hour of its release on August 20, the game rose to the top of the global chart on Steam, a leading gaming platform. Over 2.2 million active players were recorded at its peak. Adapted from the Chinese classic Journey to the West, Black Myth: Wukong recreates the story of its most beloved character. What sets the game apart is its stunning graphics, immersive game play and its deep connection with traditional culture. Players not only enjoy the game for its combat (打斗) and storyline but also for its fine recreation of historical sites. “The ancient buildings in the game are well integrated with the storyline. I’m planning to visit the filming locations soon to experience the cultural heritage first hand,” said a player from Beijing. In addition to artistic illustrations, the game developers used 3D scanning technology to recreate these ancient wonders. This allows for a more lifelike insight into China’s architectural past. The game’s impact reaches beyond the virtual world, though. An interest in ancient architecture has grown among young people. In response, Shanxi Province, one of the game’s key filming locations, is actively promoting its rich cultural resources to meet the growing demand. Known as the “treasure of ancient Chinese architecture,” Shanxi is home to 531 nationally protected cultural heritage sites. They make up 10.5 percent of China’s total, the highest in the nation. Among 36 filming locations of Black Myth: Wukong, 27 are located in Shanxi. “We’ve received oceans of visitors a day since July, a threefold increase year on year (同比),” said Liu Xiaogang, the director of the scenic area. Most of the visitors are fans of the popular game who have traveled long distances to the location, he added. On the day of the game’s release, tourism interest in Shanxi reportedly doubled compared to the previous month. To capitalize on this trend, Shanxi quickly rolled out an ancient architecture tour on August 22, Besides the “Follow Wukong Through Shanxi” route map, it has also developed a variety of cultural products. 8. What distinguishes “Black Myth: Wukong” from other games? A. It is the most successful game. B. It employs advanced technology. C. It features attractive characters. D. It is integrated with traditional culture. 9. How does the author show the game’s impact on tourism? A. Using statistics. B. Giving a definition. C. Listing examples. D. Making a comparison. 10. What does the phrase “capitalize on” mean in the last paragraph mean? A. Take advantage of. B. Make money from. C. Catch up with. D. Catch on. 11. What can we learn from the last two paragraphs? A. The game sparked interest in ancient Chinese literature. B. The government launched measures to promote tourism. C. Tourism interest doubled in Shanxi compared to last year. D. Most protected cultural heritage sites are located in Shanxi. 【答案】8. D 9. D 10. A 11.

An interest in ancient architecture has grown among young people. In response, Shanxi Province, one of the game’s key filming locations, is actively promoting its rich cultural resources to meet the growing demand.(游戏的影响不仅限于虚拟世界。年轻人对古建筑的兴趣日益浓厚。作为游戏主要拍摄地之一的山西省，正在积极响应，推广其丰富的文化资源以满足不断增长的需求)”以及最后一段“To capitalize on this trend, Shanxi quickly rolled out an ancient architecture tour on August 22, Besides the “Follow Wukong Through Shanxi” route map, it has also developed a variety of cultural products.(为了抓住这一趋势，山西迅速于8月22日推出了古建筑旅游线路。除了“跟着悟空游山西”的路线图外，还开发了多种文化产品)”可知，因为游戏《黑神话：悟空》引发了年轻人对古建筑的兴趣，山西省作为游戏的主要拍摄地之一，积极推广其丰富的文化资源以满足日益增长的需求，如推出古建筑之旅、开发多种文化产品等，由此可推断出政府采取了措施来促进旅游业发展，故选B项。 D Kids everywhere love to play. And they know that a ball is a perfect thing to play with. Now scientists report bumblebees (大黄蜂) seem to know the same thing, making bumblebees the first insects known to play. Lots of animals play: But the behavior is best known in mammals (哺乳动物) and birds. For many animals, playing is often seen as a kind of practice for things they’ll have to deal with in later life. But before this, there were no reports of insects playing. Dr. Lars Chittka did an earlier experiment, where he trained bumblebees to roll balls into a goal for food. He noticed some bees were rolling balls even when they weren’t rewarded. He wondered whether they were playing for rewards or not. To test the idea, he with other scientists set up a new experiment. First, they marked 45 young bumblebees, both male and female, between one and 23 days old. Then they set up a clear pathway from the bumblebees’ nest to a feeding area. On either side of the open pathway, small colored wooden balls were placed. On one side of the path, the balls couldn’t move. On the other side, the balls could roll around. For three hours, a day over 14 days, the scientists opened the pathway. The bumblebees never had to leave the pathway to find food, but they left anyway. They weren’t so interested in the side where the balls couldn’t move, but they made lots of visits to the side with the rolling balls. Grabbing the balls with their legs, the bumblebees would beat their wings to pull on the balls, causing them to roll. The 45 marked bumblebees did this 910 times during the experiment. Though some only did it once, others did it a lot. The scientists found the younger bumblebees spent more time rolling balls, and that males seemed more likely to play than females. The scientists say it’s not clear why the bumblebees roll the balls or whether they enjoy it. But the experiment raises important questions about how the insects’ minds work and whether they have feelings. 12. What is the common view about animals’ playing behavior? A. A form of fight. B. A form of training. C. A form of labor. D. A form of performance. 13. Why did Dr. Lars Chittka conduct the new experiment? A. To train bumblebees to play with balls. B. To figure out bumblebees’ feeding style. C. To explore if bumblebees play without a reward. D. To observe how bees interact with different objects: 14. What did the scientists find during the experiment? A. Bumblebees only played with balls when food was involved. B. Female bumblebees were more interested in playing than males. C. Older bumblebees spent more time rolling balls than younger ones. D. Bumblebees preferred balls that could roll to those that couldn’t. 15. What is the main idea of the text? A. The purpose of insects playing is to prepare for life. B. Dr. Lars Chittka discovered a new way to train bees. C. Bumblebees are the first insects known to play. D. Playing is common among mammals and birds. 【答案】12. B 13. C 14. D 15.

Our mood was light until Olle spotted a poster for the upcoming Harvest Fair. The idea of attending it was thrilling, but the ticket price of $50 quickly iced our enthusiasm. While we were thinking over the cost, our attention was drawn to the list of attractions. Among the various activities, we noticed that our favorite band - Eagles was going to perform. We couldn’t help but break into singing our favorite song by them. What added to our excitement was the pie contest in the poster, a delightful reminder of our shared memory. It used to be the most popular event in our community. But thinking of the expensive tickets, which seemed to be a shadow over our excitement, we all sighed. Then I suggested going to my parents’ store to see if they could help. Upon arriving, my dad told us he had some good news, showing some tickets to us. They were the very ones we had seen in the poster! My dad explained that his old partner had made a request to hang a poster here for the Harvest Fair, and in return, he offered us free passes. Much to my delight, there were six tickets for five people in our family and an extra one for my friend! The news was like a breath of fresh air, bringing unexpected joy into our day. We could all set out to experience the fair together, no one missing out. Just then, Mrs. Smith, out awesome 80-year-old neighbor, walked unsteadily towards us.“I just saw the poster in your window. How I used to love going to fairs!” She paused, with her eyes dropping before she continued. “But it’s hard for me to get around now, and tickets cost so much these days...” 注意: 1.续写词数应为150个左右; 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Ollie approached me, seemingly to say something. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ After the fair, I came up with a plan to make up for Ollie’s absence. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】Ollie approached me, seemingly to say something. As Mrs. Smith continued to gaze longingly at the poster, he whispered, “Why don’t we give her the extra ticket?” Touched by his thoughtfulness and generosity, I nodded. When we presented her with the ticket, she was overjoyed and lost for words. My dad winked at Ollie, silently expressing gratitude for his kindness. The fair was great, filled with laughter, music, and the freshly baked pies. But the very best part was seeing Mrs. Smith’s broad smile. After the fair, I came up with a plan to make up for Ollie ‘s absence. My family decided to throw a surprise “Family Harvest Fair” in his honor. Besides party decoration, we prepared simple but fun games. We also invited neighbors around. Ollie’s face lit up with surprise and gratitude. During the fair, we baked an “award-winning”pie and gifted him with a classic album bearing Eagles’autographs. Even though it wasn’t quite the same as the real fair, the genuine laughter and happiness shared among us were equally fulfilling. It was Ollie’s act of kindness that sparked a ripple of lasting joy for us all. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了在一个阳光明媚的下午，作者和朋友奥利在当地的公园里玩滑板。这时他们看到博览会的海报，更有他们最喜欢的乐队的表演。但是昂贵的门票让他们望而却步。于是，作者想回家寻求家人的帮助。作者的爸爸找到了六张门票，刚好有一张分给奥利。这时，80岁的邻居史密斯太太向他们走去，表示很想去参加博览会，但是苦于门票太贵…… 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“奥利走近我，似乎在说什么。”可知，第一段可描写奥利分给史密斯太太，作者和家人以及史密斯太太一起去观看了博览会。 ②由第二段首句内容“博览会结束后，我想出了一个计划来弥补奥利的缺席。”可知，第二段可描写作者和家人举办一个惊喜的派对来补偿奥利。 2.续写线索：提议——赠送门票——激动——观看——实施计划——感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①凝视：gaze /stare ②小声说：whisper/murmur ③决定：decide/determine 情绪类 ①感动：touched /moved ②感谢：gratitude/appreciation/thankfulness 【点睛】 [高分句型1] My dad winked at Ollie, silently expressing gratitude for his kindness.（运用了现在分词作伴随状语） [高分句型2] Even though it wasn’t quite the same as the real fair, the genuine laughter and happiness shared among us were equally fulfilling.（运用了even though引导的让步状语从句） [高分句型3] It was Ollie’s act of kindness that sparked a ripple of lasting joy for us all.（运用了强调句型） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
