【答案】D
【解析】
【详解】句意:——今天有去上海的快车吗?不知你能否帮我查一下? ——对不起,末班车15分钟前就开走了。
考查动词短语。pick up捡起;give up放弃;take up占据,开始从事;look up查阅。由“Is there a fast train to Shanghai today?”可知在咨询是否有去上海的火车,所以应该查询一下。故选D。

A. singing, singing B. is singing, singing
C. is singing, to sing D. is singing, sings
【答案】C
【解析】
【详解】句意:——听!莉莉在唱歌。——是的,人们经常听到她唱歌。
考查现在进行时和非谓语动词。根据“Listen! Lily…”可知,句子时态为现在进行时,其谓语部分结构为:am/is/are doing。主语“Lily”,第三人称单数作主语,be动词应为“is”,sing“唱歌”,其现在分词形式“singing”,符合语境。根据“ Yes, she is often heard…songs.”中的“often”可知,此处指的是她经常被听见在唱歌,be heard to do sth“被听见做某事”,固定用法,符合语境。而be heard doing sth“被听见正在做某事”,强调听到唱歌的过程,不符合语境。故选C。

【答案】C
【解析】
【详解】句意:——凯特上学从来不迟到,是吗?——是的,她总是第一个到校。
考查反意疑问句及回答。第一空前的陈述句含有never,故是否定句,否定陈述句的反意疑问句应用肯定的附加问句,主句里是“Kate’s”是“Kate is”,故第一空用is she;根据“She is always the first one to get to school.”可知,事实是她从不迟到,所以用no回答。故选C。
5. This famous saying “When I walk along with two others, they may serve me as my teachers” tells us ________.
A. how should we treat people B. who we can learn from
C. what did we say in public D. why we need teachers

【解析】
【详解】句意:“三人行,必有我师焉”这句名言告诉我们可以向谁学习。
考查宾语从句。句子是宾语从句,用陈述语序,排除A、C;根据“When I walk along with two others, they may serve me as my teachers”可知此句意为“三人行,必有我师焉”,即我们要向别人学习,用who引导宾语从句。故选B。
6. —Could you tell me _________?

【解析】
【分析】
【详解】句意:——你们学校所有的学生都来自德国吗?——不,只有一小部分是德国人。
考查名词辨析。Germany德国;German德国人,复数形式为Germans。be from+地点,表示来自……,所以第一空填Germany;系动词是are,所以第二空填复数,故选A。

【详解】句意:迪克现在习惯住在学校,因为在学校里他大部分时间都用来学习。
考查used的用法。used to do sth过去常做某事;be used to do sth被用于做某事;be used to doing sth习惯于做某事。根据“now”一词,可知应该是现在习惯住在学校,用is used to living。第二空主语“time”与谓语“use ”的关系是:时间被用来做……,可知应该用被动语态句型is used to study,故选D。

As a young member of the Communist Party of China, she was chosen as the Party secretary of Sanjia village in December, 2021. Although she once had many ways to develop her village, they weren’t put into practice because of lacking money. The “rainbow village” idea was accepted because it didn’t cost a lot of money. Zhang hoped to bring in many tourists through this project and develop the local economy(经济).
She spent five months planning the creation of wall paintings of colourful sunflowers, wings and balloons to make the houses and walls of the village beautiful. For the first time, Sanjia has become famous, with pictures of the village spreading quickly on the Internet.
As a young village head, Zhang’s job isn’t easy. There are endless things to do, and there are no days off. She often cried at first and once wanted to give up. But she told herself that no matter how hard things were, she would hold on for another month. Slowly, she was approved(认可) by many villagers, which improved her confidence and led her to set bigger goals.
Zhang hoped that as long as she was there, Sanjia would go in a better direction towards a bright future.

In ancient times, copper coins meant wealth. Linking (连接) the copper coins one by one had the good meaning of collecting wealth. With coins, people can knit them into different shapes, from armor (盔甲) and swords (剑) to animals and plants. As a traditional skill in China, copper coin knitting was listed as an intangible cultural heritage (非物质文化遗产) in 2018.
Every day at 9 am, Zhang Canjin, 58, comes to the Drum Tower Street in Ningbo and walks into a small house of less than 10 square meters. Sitting at his desk, the inheritor (继承人) of copper coin knitting (铜钱编织) starts his day.
“Knitting the coins into different shapes doesn’t sound difficult, but the key is to be creative and think big,” Zhang said.
So, since he started his own copper coin knitting store in 2014, he has tried very hard to think big. Zhang added, “As I keep on making different works, I have more creative ideas in my mind,” Zhang said.
To try something challenging, Zhang spent two months making armor with more than 8,000 coins in 2017. It got great public attention and even got Zhang a national patent for design (设计专利).
This also gave him more confidence. Now, he tries to continue getting more creative ideas and hopes the art form will reach more people.
“I think we Chinese people should pass on our own treasure and tradition,” Zhang said. The house of Zhang stands there in the middle of the crowded Drum Tower Street, and inside Zhang is knitting his love for heritage into a beautiful dream.
46. According to Zhang Canjin, what is more important for copper coin knitting?
A. Being wealthy. B. Being patient.
C. Being confident and imaginative. D. Being creative and thinking big.
47. What is Paragraph 4 in Zhang’s story about?
A. Zhang’s achievement. B. Zhang’s future plan.
C. Changes Zhang made. D. Challenges Zhang faced.
48. What does Zhang think about copper coin knitting?
A. It is an easy skill to master. B. It is a great cultural treasure to pass on.
C. It makes his life wealthy. D. It is a dying art and needs more inheritors.
49. What can you learn from the passage?
A. It was easy for Zhang to finish the armor with more than 8,000 coins.
B. The art form will catch the attention of more young people with Zhang’s work.
C. People who have a beautiful dream should be like Zhang Canjin.
D. If someone linked the copper coins one by one, he or she must be confident.

I can’t remember the last time I used cash in China. Between WeChat and Alipay, we pay for everything with our mobile phones. When I went back home to the UK for a holiday, I had some culture shock in my own country.
Suddenly, I couldn’t use my phone to pay for things. I got out my wallet and went back to using notes and coins.
Of course, we can pay for things electronically in the UK. People use their bank cards. Some use Google Pay on their phones or watches. But most people still use cash. And many are wary of putting too much trust in going electronic with payments.
My parents are two of these wary people. They believe that using electronic payments could lead to their whole savings being stolen by online criminals. The concern is understandable. In 2022, more than £4 billion was stolen by fraudsters (诈骗犯) and cybercriminals (网络罪犯) in the UK. In its 2022 fraud and cybercrime report, the online financial (金融的) service comparison website money. co. uk reported a 63 percent increase in fraud and cybercrime from 2021. Online buying was the biggest source of the thefts, said Computer Weekly.
So, the dangers are real. But still, it seems that mobile or at least digital payments will lead the way in the future in the UK, just as it is here now in China. According to the gov. uk website, the Bank of England is now looking at using a digital pound.
But the real question is: Will the British public trust it?
51. Why did the writer have culture shock after returning to the UK?
A. Because most people still use cash to buy things.
B. Because people have to bring a bank card in their wallet.
C. Because people can’t pay for things electronically.
D. Because most people like to use coins more than notes.
52. What may the underlined word “wary” mean in Paragraph 3?
A. Aware. B. Careful. C. Sure. D. Proud.
53. What can we learn about the writer’s parents?
A. They use Google Pay on their phones or watches.
B. They once lost all their savings to online criminals.
C. They used to work for the website money. co. uk.
D. They don’t trust the electronic payment method.
54. What’s the main concern of many British people about using electronic payments?
A. Forgetting their passwords often.
B. Losing their savings to online thieves.
C. Paying extra money for this service.
D. Having to keep a network connection.
55. What does the author think of the Bank of England’s idea of “a digital pound”?
A. It will soon become popular.
B. It is what people are hoping for.
C. It is uncertain if people will want to use it.
D. It is risky and not practical.
【答案】51. A 52. B 53. D 54. B 55. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了作者在中国时手机支付的兴盛,而在英国支付方式仍以现金为主,原因是网络诈骗盛行,但在未来的英国手机支付也有可能成为大势所趋。
【51题详解】
推理判断题。根据“Suddenly, I couldn’t use my phone to pay for things. I got out my wallet and went back to using notes and coins.”和“But most people still use cash.”可知,作者习惯了中国的手机支付,回到英国后发现多数人仍使用现金支付,无法像在中国一样用手机付款,因此产生文化冲击。故选A。
【52题详解】
词义猜测题。根据前文“But most people still use cash”和后文“My parents are two of these wary people. They believe that using electronic payments could lead to their whole savings being stolen by online criminals.”可知使用现金这类人认为电子支付会将使得他们的积蓄被骗光,所以他们对于电子支付方式非常谨慎,与careful同义。故选B。
【53题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“And many are wary of putting too much trust in going electronic with payments.”及第四段“My parents are two of these wary people. They believe that using electronic payments could lead to their whole savings being stolen by online criminals.”可知作者的父母不信任电子支付方式。故选D。
【54题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段“They believe that using electronic payments could lead to their whole savings being stolen by online criminals. The concern is understandable.”可知英国人对于使用电子支付方式最主要的担心是他们害怕网络诈骗犯骗走他们的积蓄。故选B。
【55题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“But still, it seems that mobile or at least digital payments will lead the way in the future in the UK, just as it is here now in China.”可知作者用了it seems表示“似乎;有可能”,即一种不确定性,可以推断出作者也不确定人们在未来是否会接受英国银行推出的使用数字支付的想法,与C项表达的意思相吻合。故选C。

Second, parents should help us to get into good habits, such as eating healthy food, doing sports and so on. What’s more, parents had better communicate with us more often. That’s because some misunderstandings are caused by lack of communication. Finally, I hope parents can trust us and protect our privacy. We children really need more personal space.
