A
Fly like superman!
Have you ever imagined how it feels when fresh air is in your face? Or to see the beauty of nature from the top? You can do it in a hot air balloon ride.
Hot air ballooning is the activity of flying in a basket hanging over a hot air balloon. Attractive parts of ballooning include the unusual quiet, the lack of a feeling of movement, and the bird’s-eye view. Since the balloon moves with the direction of the winds, the passengers feel absolutely no wind, except for brief periods during the flight when the balloon climbs or falls into air currents of different directions or speeds. Hot air ballooning has been recognized by the World Aeronautical Federation(WAF)as the safest air sport, and accidents seldom happen. However, you must follow some rules such as:
* You have to respect the limit of passengers allowed in the ride. A catlán has drawn new attention to the danger of ballooning. Four years ago, 1 1 people were injured and 2 were killed when their hot air balloon basket struck in line and caught fire.
*The pilot must check the weather and select a suitable take-off point. The current and forecast weather must have good visibility for the pilot to see, and slow winds to allow take-off and landing.
* Children aged under twelve have to be with their parents all the tour.
* Pilots must not carry passengers who have participated in scuba dive (蛙潜) the day before.
There are many regular (定期) gatherings of balloons and balloonists in Hidalgo around the year, which provide both a place for balloonists to interact as well as a place for visitors to entertain. You must try this activity at least once in a lifetime.
1. What is an attraction of hot air ballooning?
A. Hearing the sound of the wind. B. Enjoying a breathtaking view.
C. Experiencing different weather. D. Having a feeling of movement.
2. What can we learn from the rules of hot air ballooning?
A. 13 passengers are allowed on board at most.
B. It allows take-off or landing in strong winds.
C. A person aged 12 and older can ride alone.
D. Any scuba divers are allowed as passengers.
3. What kind of text is it?
A. A news report. B. A scientific research.
C. A travel guide. D. A technical document.
【答案】1. B 2. C 3. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇应用文。文章主要介绍了热气球旅行的相关事项。

Working for a big company in London on a salary (薪水)of over £100,000, you might expect Grayden Reece-Smith to have a luxurious (奢侈)lifestyle, going on expensive holidays or driving a sports car around south London, where he lives. In fact, the 28-year-old lives a very different existence from his colleagues. He gives away everything he earns over £42,000–a figure that he thought he could comfortably live on.
Over the past five years, Reece-Smith has handed over more than £250,000 to organizations such as International Care Ministries, which helps poor families in the Philippines, and the Against Malaria Foundation. He is part of a growing number of young professionals described as “effective altruists”. Effective altruists typically donate regularly to a charity which they think will have a great impact (影响). Some change careers to make more money, which can then be given away.
Reece-Smith considered working in the charity sector after graduating from university, but thought that he could make a bigger difference by donating a large part of his salary. He had volunteered as a teacher at a school in Tanzania, but then realized that earning and giving would be more effective. “The cost of my flights there could have paid the salaries of two teachers for an entire year,” he says. Instead, he could “stay at home, living a nice life and still make a huge difference in the world”.
He is not mean with money-last year he went to Cuba on holiday, and spent several thousand pounds on a new sofa. But his lifestyle isn’t as luxurious as some of the people he works with. “I usually don’t buy supermarket-branded food products, but I don’t own a car. Other people on my salary might have a bigger house. Some of my colleagues have four-bedroom houses, but we only bought what we needed-a two-bedroom flat.£42,000 is more than enough to live on and still save,” he says.
4. How much money does Grayden spend on donation every year?
A. Less than £42,000. B. Over £100.000.
C. £50,000. D. Any income over £42,000.
5. What may an “effective altruist” do according to the text?
A. Donate to impactful charities. B. Make more money to enjoy lives.
C. Create a good public image. D. Enter a teaching profession.
6. Why did Grayden decide to donate money but not work in the charity sector?
A. To access his inner life. B. To create a stronger effect.
C. To give away all of his salary. D. To be a teacher at a school.
7. What can be inferred about Grayden from the text?
A. He leads an expensive lifestyle. B. He buys food produced by supermarkets.
C. He lives in a four-bedroom house. D. He balances his life and donation.
【答案】4. D 5. A 6. B 7. D
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述Grayden Reece-Smith每年除了留下 £42,000薪水生活外,会把剩余的薪水捐给慈善机构。
【4题详解】
细节理解题。由文章第一段“He gives away everything he earns over £42,000–a figure that he thought he could comfortably live on.(他捐出了他收入超过4.2万英镑的一切——他认为4.2万英镑已经可以让他过上舒适的生活。)”可知,Grayden会捐赠出任何超过42000英镑的收入。故选D项。
【5题详解】
细节理解题。由文章第二段“He is part of a growing number of young professionals described as ‘effective altruists’. Effective altruists typically donate regularly to a charity which they think will have a great impact (影响). (他是越来越多被称为‘有效利他主义者’的年轻专业人士中的一员。有效的利他主义者通常会定期向他们认为会产生巨大影响的慈善机构捐款。)”可知,利他主义者会向有影响力的慈善机构捐款。故选A项。
【6题详解】
细节理解题。由文章第三段“Reece-Smith considered working in the charity sector after graduating from university, but thought that he could make a bigger difference by donating a large part of his salary. (Reece Smith大学毕业后曾考虑在慈善部门工作,但他认为自己可以通过捐出大部分工资来做出更大的改变。)”可知, Grayden认为捐款会产生更大的效果。故选B项。
【7题详解】
推理判断题。由文章最后一段“I usually don’t buy supermarket-branded food products, but I don’t own a car. Other people on my salary might have a bigger house. Some of my colleagues have four-bedroom houses, but we only bought what we needed-a two-bedroom flat.£42,000 is more than enough to live on and still save,(我通常不买超市品牌的食品,但我没有汽车。其他拿我薪水的人可能会有更大的房子。我的一些同事有四居室的房子,但我们只买了我们需要的——一套两居室的公寓。42000英镑已经足够生活和储蓄了)”可知,Grayden能很好的平衡自己的生活和捐赠。故选D项。
C
In the past few weeks, Richard Eckersley has noticed a change in the type of people who come into his shop. In 2017, the former Manchester United footballer set up Earth. Food. Love in Tones, Devon, with his wife, Nicola. It’s the UK’s first “zero waste” store—the food is in big jars and boxes and people bring their own containers. “A lot of new people are coming in-people who have not necessarily been interested in environmental issues before”, he says.
Recently, the government called for supermarkets to introduce plastic-free passageways. But Eckersley says many customers are already way ahead of politicians. He and Nicola have helped people set up similar stores in Wales, Birmingham, and Bristol. Ingrid Caldironi had a similar idea. She set up a plastic-free shop in London last year, which has been so popular that it is soon moving to a bigger site.
Eckersley and Caldironi are members of an anti-plastics movement in the UK that has been growing as a result of the BBC’s Blue Planet series and a general worry about the damage plastic is doing to the environment. But big supermarkets have so far not tried very hard to reduce their plastic waste. Sian Sutherland, founder of the movement “A Plastic Planet”, says, “The most exciting thing is that politicians and industry are no longer saying that recycling will solve the problem. Banning the use of plastic packaging for food and drink products is the only answer.” Walking down the passageways of the supermarket where everything from pizza to fresh fruit and vegetables is covered in plastic. Sutherland says immediate action is needed.
Plastic pollution is causing widespread global damage. More than one million plastic bottles are bought around the world every minute, and most end up in landfill or the sea. The contamination is so wide that tap water around the world also contains plastic.
8. What is special about Earth. Food. Love?
A. It gives away boxes of food. B. It is a store without plastic bags.
C. It has few new customers. D. It is the UK’s first supermarket.
9. What caused Caldironi’s shop to be relocated to a larger place?
A. Its popularity. B. Its products. C. Its profits. D. Its similarity.
10. What does the underlined word “contamination” in last paragraph mean?
A. Pollution. B. Acceptance. C. Influence. D. Application.
11. What is the text mainly about?
A The impact of BBC’s Blue Planet series on anti-plastics movements.
B. Rising anti-plastics movement alongside increasing environmental concerns.
C. A guide to setting up plastic-free stores to promote recycling in the whole UK.
D. Richard Eckersley’s personal journey in waste reduction and pollution prevention.
【答案】8. B 9. A 10. A 11. B
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章以没有塑料袋的商店Earth. Food. Love为例,说明了政府和个人都在关注塑料污染问题,提倡减少使用塑料。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“It’s the UK’s first “zero waste” store—the food is in big jars and boxes and people bring their own containers.(这是英国第一家“零浪费”商店——食物装在大罐子和盒子里,人们自己带着容器)”以及第二段“She set up a plastic-free shop in London last year, which has been so popular that it is soon moving to a bigger site. (去年,她在伦敦开了一家无塑料商店,这家商店非常受欢迎,很快就会搬到更大的地方)”可知,Earth. Food. Love的特别之处是一家没有塑料袋的商店。故选B。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“She set up a plastic-free shop in London last year, which has been so popular that it is soon moving to a bigger site. (去年,她在伦敦开了一家无塑料商店,这家商店非常受欢迎,很快就会搬到更大地方)”可知,这家店的受欢迎程度让卡尔迪罗尼的店搬到了一个更大的地方。故选A。
【10题详解】
词句猜测题。根据划线词上文“Plastic pollution is causing widespread global damage. More than one million plastic bottles are bought around the world every minute, and most end up in landfill or the sea.(塑料污染正在造成广泛的全球破坏。世界各地每分钟售出100多万个塑料瓶,其中大多数最终被填埋或入海)”以及后文“is so wide that tap water around the world also contains plastic.”可知,塑料污染范围如此之广,以至于世界各地的自来水也含有塑料。故划线词意思是“污染”。故选A。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文,并根据第二段“Recently, the government called for supermarkets to introduce plastic-free passageways. But Eckersley says many customers are already way ahead of politicians. He and Nicola have helped people set up similar stores in Wales, Birmingham, and Bristol.(最近,政府呼吁超市引入无塑料通道。但埃克斯利表示,许多消费者已经走在了政客的前面。他和尼古拉帮助人们在威尔士、伯明翰和布里斯托尔建立了类似的商店)”可知,文章以没有塑料袋的商店Earth. Food. Love为例,说明了政府和个人都在关注塑料污染问题,提倡减少使用塑料。由此可知,这篇文章的主要内容是反塑料运动的兴起以及对环境问题的日益关注。故选B。
D
Thousands of lives have been saved by giving blood-thinning drugs to people with a heart condition that leaves them at risk of a stroke(中风), according to the head of the NHS.
Since January 2022 about 460,000 people in England who suffer from atrial fibrillation(AF)- a dangerously irregular heart rate-have begun taking one of four anticoagulant(抗凝血剂) drugs that are proved to reduce stroke risk. Speedy introduction of the drugs has kept 4,000 people alive who would otherwise have died and prevented about 17,000 strokes, according to Amanda Pritchard. Strokes kill about 27,000 people a year in England and lead to about 120,000 being taken to hospital.
A drive to encourage take-up of the drugs means 90% of the 1.5 million people in England with AF are using them. That should result in fewer strokes, which are a leading cause of death and disability, given that AF causes about one in five strokes.
“The rapid introduction of these drugs is a big step forward in providing the best possible care for patients with heart disease”, Pritchard, the leader of NHS(National Health Service) England, will say in a speech today at the King’s Fund health experts’ yearly conference.
The drugs, called direct oral anticoagulants, help stop blood from clotting(凝血), therefore reducing the risk of a clot developing and causing a stroke. In 2021 the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence recommended that doctors use four anticoagulant drugs.
Dr Maeva May, the Stroke Association’s director, thought the widespread use of the drugs as “fantastic news”, because AF accounts for one in five strokes and strokes in people with AF are more likely to result in death or serious disability.
NHS England has used its spending power to cut deals with the makers of the four drugs, which has made them much more widely available. The British Heart Foundation praised the NHS’s “great progress towards its goal of reducing stroke deaths”.
12. What is the purpose of listing numbers in paragraph 2?
A. To attract the readers’ attention to strokes.
B. To introduce the specific information about AF.
C. To show the effects of four anticoagulant drugs.
D. To summarize the steps towards reducing deaths.
13. What is the main function of anticoagulant drugs?
A. To identify signs of strokes. B. To reduce blood pressure.
C. To keep heart beating. D. To prevent blood clotting.
14. What can be inferred about NHS England and drug makers from the text?
A. They have reached some agreements. B. They have provided free treatment.
C. They have established disease funds. D. They have reminded of stroke deaths.
15. Which is the best title for the text?
A. Recognising Signs of A Heart Attack B. A Breakthrough in Stroke Prevention
C. Exploring Kinds of Anticoagulant Drugs D. NHS England’s Life-Saving Conference
【答案】12. C 13. D 14. A 15. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是新闻报道。文章主要介绍英国国家医疗服务体系(NHS)负责人表示,通过给患有心脏病的人服用血液稀释药物,大大降低了房颤患者的中风可能导致的死亡或严重残疾,数千人的生命得以挽救。
【12题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段“Since January 2022 about 460,000 people in England who suffer from atrial fibrillation(AF)- a dangerously irregular heart rate-have begun taking one of four anticoagulant(抗凝血剂) drugs that are proved to reduce stroke risk. Speedy introduction of the drugs has kept 4,000 people alive who would otherwise have died and prevented about 17,000 strokes, according to Amanda Pritchard. Strokes kill about 27,000 people a year in England and lead to about 120,000 being taken to hospital. (自2022年1月以来,英国约有46万患有心房颤动(AF)的人开始服用四种抗凝药物中的一种,这些药物已被证明可以降低中风风险。据Amanda Pritchard称,这些药物的迅速引入使4000人得以存活,否则他们将死亡,并预防了约17000例中风。在英格兰,中风每年造成约2.7万人死亡,约12万人被送往医院。)”可知,这一段利用数字来说明四种抗凝血药物对心房颤动病人的效果。故选C。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第五段“The drugs, called direct oral anticoagulants, help stop blood from clotting(凝血), therefore reducing the risk of a clot developing and causing a stroke. (这些药物被称为直接口服抗凝血剂,有助于阻止血液凝固,从而降低血栓形成和导致中风的风险。)”可知,抗凝血药物的主要作用是防止血液凝结。故选D。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段“NHS England has used its spending power to cut deals with the makers of the four drugs (英国国家医疗服务体系(NHS England)利用其支出能力与这四种药物的制造商达成了协议)”可知,英国国家医疗服务体系和制药商他们已经达成了一些协议。故选A。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段“Thousands of lives have been saved by giving blood-thinning drugs to people with a heart condition that leaves them at risk of a stroke(中风), according to the head of the NHS. (英国国家医疗服务体系(NHS)负责人表示,通过给患有心脏病的人服用血液稀释药物,数千人的生命得以挽救,这些心脏病使他们有中风的风险。)”和最后一段“NHS England has used its spending power to cut deals with the makers of the four drugs, which has made them much more widely available. The British Heart Foundation praised the NHS’s “great progress towards its goal of reducing stroke deaths”. (英国国家医疗服务体系(NHS England)利用其支出能力与这四种药物的制造商达成了协议,这使它们的供应范围更加广泛。英国心脏基金会称赞英国国家医疗服务体系“在实现减少中风死亡的目标方面取得了巨大进展”。)”可知,文章主要介绍英国国家医疗服务体系(NHS)负责人表示,通过给患有心脏病的人服用血液稀释药物,大大降低了房颤患者的中风可能导致的死亡或严重残疾,数千人的生命得以挽救。所以B选项“预防中风的突破”和文章意思一致。故选B。
第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)
阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
At China Daily Learning English, we sometimes get questions like this: “How can I speak English with more confidence?” ____16____. No matter what language we are learning, we would all love to speak more confidently. So today, we have three pieces of advice to help you gain confidence in your English-speaking ability.
Use positive self-talk
Believe it or not, the most important person you talk to every day is yourself. In other words, it is your thoughts that really matter. So our first piece of advice is to use positive self-talk.
If you lack confidence as an English speaker, you may tell yourself things like, “____17____.” When you talk to other people, you may say things like, “I’m so sorry for my English.” But if you keep thinking and saying such things, you are sure to start believing them.
So the next time you are using your English, pay attention to what you tell yourself or others. ____18____
Don’t worry too much
One of the biggest barriers to confidence in speaking a second language is the constant worry about making mistakes. Understand that making mistakes is a natural part of the language learning process. Yes, you will make mistakes. ____19____ And many English learners communicate very well, even with mistakes. Mistakes can be a good thing. The more mistakes you make, the more progress you will make.
____20____
If your English-speaking skills are at the beginner or intermediate (中级的) level and you try to do something too difficult, you may fail. This can harm your confidence. But, if you do something that matches your level, you are more likely to do it well.
A. Set realistic goals
B. Build your confidence
C. That is a great question
D. English is too hard and I will never improve
E. It is important to practice speaking English every day
F. But the purpose of speaking a language is to communicate
G. Be sure to replace unhelpful thoughts or ideas with better ones
【答案】16. C 17. D 18. G 19. F 20. A
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了如何才能自信地说英语的几种方法。
【16题详解】
上文“How can I speak English with more confidence?(我怎样才能更自信地说英语?)”提出怎样才能更自信地说英语这个问题,选项C“这是一个好问题”承接上文,强调这个问题的重要性,选项中的指示代词“That”和“a great question”与上文照应。故选C项。
【17题详解】
根据上文“If you lack confidence as an English speaker, you may tell yourself things like(如果你对自己说英语缺乏信心,你可能会这样告诉自己)”推测空处可能列举你对自己所说的话,选项D“英语太难了,我永远也进步不了”承接上文,这正是我们不自信时对自己说的话。故选D项。
【18题详解】
上文“So the next time you are using your English, pay attention to what you tell yourself or others.(所以下次你使用英语的时候,要注意你对自己或别人说的话。)”并结合上文提到的一些消极做法推知,要注意对自己或别人说的话,选项G“一定要用更好的想法来代替无益的想法”承接上文。故选G项。
【19题详解】
上文“Understand that making mistakes is a natural part of the language learning process. Yes, you will make mistakes.(要明白犯错是语言学习过程中很自然的一部分。是的,你会犯错误。)”说明犯错误是自然的事情。下文“And many English learners communicate very well, even with mistakes.(而且许多英语学习者即使有错误,也能交流得很好。)”指出即使有错也能很好的交流。由此可知,我们学习语言的目的是交流,即使犯一些错误也并无大碍。选项F“但是说一门语言的目的是为了交流”承上启下,说明说一门语言的目的是交流。故选F项。
【20题详解】
下文“If your English-speaking skills are at the beginner or intermediate (中级的) level and you try to do something too difficult, you may fail. This can harm your confidence. But, if you do something that matches your level, you are more likely to do it well.(如果你的英语水平处于初级或中级水平,而你试图做一些太难的事情,你可能会失败。这会损害你的自信。但是,如果你做的事情符合你的水平,你就更有可能把它做好。)”说明目标设置不合理会损害自信,由此可知,该部分的建议是设置合理合理的目标。选项A“设定切合实际的目标”能概括本段内容,为最佳小标题。故选A项。

第四节 翻译句子 (共5小题;每小题3分,满分15分)
56. 最后,它成功地到达了它要过冬的地方。(manage;where)(汉译英)
__________________________________________________________
【答案】Eventually, it managed to reach the places where it would spend the winter. / Eventually, it manages to reach the places where it will spend the winter.
【解析】
【详解】考查副词、时态、非谓语动词、定语从句。表示“最后”用副词eventually,作状语,修饰句子,位于句首,首字母大写。表示“它”用it,作主语。表示“成功做某事”用manage to do sth.,本句描述过去的动作,故时态用一般过去时,谓语用过去式。表示“到达了地方”用reach the places,位于不定式符号to后,用动词原形。表示“它要过冬的地方”用定语从句,定语从句中:用it作主语;表示“度过冬天”用spend the winter,描述过去将要发生的事情,从句时态用过去将来时,谓语用would spend;先行词是places,关系词代替先行词在从句中作地点状语,应用关系副词where引导。或者它成功地到达了它要过冬的地方表示习惯性动作,时态用一般现在时,主语it为第三人称单数,谓语也用第三人称单数manages,定语从句描述将来发生的事情,从句时态用一般将来时,从句谓语用will spend。故翻译为Eventually, it managed to reach the places where it would spend the winter. / Eventually, it manages to reach the places where it will spend the winter.
57. 这些梯田也为鸟类和鱼类提供了绝佳的栖息地,而一部分鸟儿和鱼又以危害水稻的昆虫为食。(汉译英)
【答案】These terraces also provide a perfect environment for birds and fish, some of which feed on insects that can harm the rice crops.
【解析】
【详解】考查名词,动词短语和定语从句。主语“这些梯田”应用指示代词these修饰名词“terraces(梯田)”,表示“也”用副词also,谓语“给……提供……”用动词短语“provide sth for …”,表示“绝佳的栖息地”用形容词perfect(完美的,绝佳的)修饰名词environment(环境),表示“鸟类和鱼类”用名词birds and fish,所以主句为:These terraces also provide a perfect environment for birds and fish;此处包含一个定语从句,先行词为“鸟儿和鱼”,指物,用关系代词which,表示“一部分”用some of,所以主语是some of which,谓语动词是“以……为食”用动词短语feed on,宾语“昆虫”用名词insects,insects包含一个定语从句“危害水稻”,先行词为insects,引导词用that,谓语动词是“危害”用情态动词can加上动词harm(危害),宾语“水稻”用名词the rice crops,所以从句部分为some of which feed on insects that can harm the rice crops。句意描述客观事实,时态用一般现在时,主句和第一个从句的主语都是复数,动词用原形,第二个从句动词含有情态动词can,后接动词原形harm作谓语,翻译为:These terraces also provide a perfect environment for birds and fish, some of which feed on insects that can harm the rice crops.
58. 有时候刀叉太多了,以至于你不敢拿起它们,以防拿错了。(in case) (汉译英)
__________________________________________________________
【答案】Sometimes there are so many knives and forks that you dare not pick them up in case you get it wrong.
【解析】
【详解】考查there be句型、结果状语从句、目的状语从句、名词和动词短语。句子应该是描述当前的情况,时态宜用一般现在时;“有时候”可用副词sometimes,“刀叉太多了”可理解为“有太多刀叉”,可用there be句型表示“有”,主语“很多的刀叉”可用名词短语many knives and forks,为复数,be动词应用are,“以至于……”是“刀叉太多”的结果,可用so… that…引导结果状语从句,so用于强调many的程度;结果状语从句中主语“你”用代词you,“不敢”可用情态动词dare和not搭配,“拿起它们”可用动词短语pick them up,“以防拿错了”可用in case引导目的状语从句;目的状语从句中隐含的主语“你”用代词you,“拿错了”可用动词短语get it wrong。故可译为:Sometimes there are so many knives and forks that you dare not pick them up in case you get it wrong.
59. 你学习越努力,你取得的进步就越多。(the +比较级)(汉译英)
__________________________________________________________
【答案】The harder you study, the more progress you will make.
【解析】
【详解】考查固定句型、形容词和副词比较级。根据句意,表示“努力学习”为study hard,表示“取得大的进步”应为make much progress,根据提示与句意,该句为“the+比较级..., the +比较级...”结构,所以副词hard应为比较级,与the连用置于句首,所以前半句话“你学习越努力”译为the harder you study,位于句首时,the的首字母需大写;后半句中用比较级more修饰名词progress,与定冠词the一起提前置于后半句句首,应为the more progress,该结构中,前半句相当于条件状语从句,后半句相当于主句,所以根据“主将从现”原则,前半句用一般现在时表将来,后半句应为一般将来时,所以后半句译为the greater progress you will make。故翻译为The harder you study, the more progress you will make.
60. 她站着不动,感激的泪水从脸颊滚下。(with复合结构)(汉译英)
__________________________________________________________
【答案】She stood still, with tears of gratitude rolling down her cheeks.
【解析】
【详解】考查时态、with复合结构。表示“她”用she,作主语,位于句首,首字母大写。表示“站着不动”用stand still,本句描述过去的动作和状态,故时态用一般过去时,谓语用过去式stood。表示“感激的泪水从脸颊滚下”用with复合结构,表示“感激的泪水”用tears of gratitude,作with的宾语;表示“从脸颊滚下”用roll down her cheeks,且tears of gratitude与roll down her cheeks为主动关系,用现在分词短语,作宾补。故翻译为She stood still, with tears of gratitude rolling down her cheeks.
第四部分 读后续写(满分20 分)
61. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
My mom grew up in a poor family and lived her life without any of the material conditions often connected with happiness. Yet, for my entire life, she stood as a role model of how to live a positive, happy life. She lived her last twenty years on social security and had no cash. Still, she saved her pennies, believing to the end that she might someday field the sand of a Hawaiian beach between her toes or tour the Italian countryside.
For my mom, life was all about finding beauty in the little things. She rarely earned more than minimum wages in her lifetime. She lived paycheck to paycheck, often going without basic needs being met. It might have been easy to become bitter and disappointed. Still, my mom remained a positive thinker.
When I was a child, my parents usually had no money to go out to eat or go shopping for extras. However, my mom would scrape together (勉强凑集) two dollars and send me to the convenience store. The order was always the same: a Coke, a Charleston Chew, and a pack of baseball cards. We would sit on the porch (走廊) and share the snack while I opened the baseball cards. She would talk to me about the players, asking which ones were the best or my favorites.It was simple, yet she turned poverty into positivity.
Later, when I was deep in my career and my life as a husband and dad, my mom would call with words encouraging me when times got tough, forgetting that she was poor, her health was failing, and she lived alone. She always had the words to make me smile, words that showed a positive outlook that stood in sharp contrast to her reality.
When living alone became impossible, my mom had to move to a nursing home. For many people, that loss of freedom can break their spirit. While it was originally disastrous, she quickly filled her empty glass back up.
注意:1.续写词数应为120左右; 2.请按如下格式作答。
Para 1:I visited my mom one day and found her busy making colorful gloves.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Para 2:When I was leaving, she asked me to bring a present to Zoey, a disabled woman in our neighborhood, for Christmas.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】I visited my mom one day and found her busy making colorful gloves. She had seen a program on the local news about an organization that collected gloves for people in need. She used the little cash she had to buy materials and made gloves for them. I asked her why she spent her little money helping those strangers instead of buying herself something. She answered, “I have everything I need here. Those poor people, though...” Her voice faded away, but the message encouraged me to this day.
When I was leaving, she asked me to bring a present to Zoey, a disabled woman in our neighborhood, for Christmas. Without money to buy fancy presents, my mom remained positive and creative. She collected magazines from the waiting room, cut out cooking instructions and made a cookbook for Zoey. On the cover of the book were just three simple words: Cook with Zoey. Mother was always prepared to help people around. She refused to see what she didn’t have; instead, she focused on others and what she did have. She was, in every sense of the word, a positive thinker. And she was an inspiration, role model and fighter. I love her forever!

Fly like superman!
Have you ever imagined how it feels when fresh air is in your face? Or to see the beauty of nature from the top? You can do it in a hot air balloon ride.
Hot air ballooning is the activity of flying in a basket hanging over a hot air balloon. Attractive parts of ballooning include the unusual quiet, the lack of a feeling of movement, and the bird’s-eye view. Since the balloon moves with the direction of the winds, the passengers feel absolutely no wind, except for brief periods during the flight when the balloon climbs or falls into air currents of different directions or speeds. Hot air ballooning has been recognized by the World Aeronautical Federation(WAF)as the safest air sport, and accidents seldom happen. However, you must follow some rules such as:
* You have to respect the limit of passengers allowed in the ride. A catlán has drawn new attention to the danger of ballooning. Four years ago, 1 1 people were injured and 2 were killed when their hot air balloon basket struck in line and caught fire.
*The pilot must check the weather and select a suitable take-off point. The current and forecast weather must have good visibility for the pilot to see and slow winds to allow take-off and landing.
* Children aged under twelve have to be with their parents all the tour.
* Pilots must not carry passengers who have participated in scuba dive (蛙潜) the day before
There are many regular (定期) gatherings of balloons and balloonists in Hidalgo around the year, which provide both a place for balloonists to interact as well as a place for visitors to entertain. You must try this activity at least once in a lifetime.
1. What is an attraction of hot air ballooning?
A. Hearing the sound of the wind. B. Enjoying a breathtaking view.
C. Experiencing different weather. D. Having a feeling of movement.
2. What can we learn from the rules of hot air ballooning?
A. 13 passengers are allowed on board at most.
B. It allows take-off or landing in strong winds.
C. A person aged 12 and older can ride alone.
D. Any scuba divers are allowed as passengers.
3. What kind of text is it?
A. A news report. B. A scientific research.
C. A travel guide. D. A technical document.

Working for a big company in London on a salary (薪水)of over £100000, you might expect Grayden Reece-Smith to have a luxurious (奢侈)lifestyle, going on expensive holidays or driving a sports car around south London, where he lives. In fact, the 28-year-old lives a very different existence from his colleagues. He gives away everything he earns over £42,000–a figure that he thought he could comfortably live on.
Over the past five years, Reece-Smith has handed over more than £250,000 to organizations such as International Care Ministries, which helps poor families in the Philippines, and the Against Malaria Foundation. He is part of a growing number of young professionals described as “effective altruists”. Effective altruists typically donate regularly to a charity which they think will have a great impact (影响). Some change careers to make more money, which can then be given away.
Reece-Smith considered working in the charity sector after graduating from university, but thought that he could make a bigger difference by donating a large part of his salary. He had volunteered as a teacher at a school in Tanzania, but then realized that earning and giving would be more effective. “The cost of my flights there could have paid the salaries of two teachers for an entire year,” he says. Instead, he could “stay at home, living a nice life and still make a huge difference in the world”.
He is not mean with money-last year he went to Cuba on holiday, and spent several thousand pounds on a new sofa. But his lifestyle isn’t as luxurious as some of the people he works with. “I usually don’t buy supermarket-branded food products, but I don’t own a car. Other people on my salary might have a bigger house. Some of my colleagues have four-bedroom houses, but we only bought what we needed-a two-bedroom flat.£42,000 is more than enough to live on and still save,” he says.
4. How much money does Grayden spend on donation every year?
A. Less than £42,000. B. Over £100.000.
C. £50,000. D. Any income over £42,000.
5. What may an “effective altruist” do according to the text?
A. Donate to impactful charities. B. Make more money to enjoy lives.
C. Create a good public image. D. Enter a teaching profession.
6. Why did Grayden decide to donate money but not work in the charity sector?
A. To access his inner life. B. To create a stronger effect.
C. To give away all of his salary. D. To be a teacher at a school.
7. What can be inferred about Grayden from the text?
A. He leads an expensive lifestyle. B. He buys food produced by supermarkets.
C. He lives in a four-bedroom house. D. He balances his life and donation.
C
In the past few weeks, Richard Eckersley has noticed a change in the type of people who come into his shop. In 2017, the former Manchester United footballer set up Earth. Food. Love in Tones, Devon, with his wife, Nicola. It’s the UK’s first “zero waste” store—the food is in big jars and boxes and people bring their own containers. “A lot of new people are coming in-people who have not necessarily been interested in environmental issues before”, he says.
Recently, the government called for supermarkets to introduce plastic-free passageways. But Eckersley says many customers are already way ahead of politicians. He and Nicola have helped people set up similar stores in Wales, Birmingham, and Bristol. Ingrid Caldironi had a similar idea. She set up a plastic-free shop in London last year, which has been so popular that it is soon moving to a bigger site.
Eckersley and Caldironi are members of an anti-plastics movement in the UK that has been growing as a result of the BBC’s Blue Planet series and a general worry about the damage plastic is doing to the environment. But big supermarkets have so far not tried very hard to reduce their plastic waste. Sian Sutherland founder of the movement “A Plastic Planet”, says, “The most exciting thing is that politicians and industry are no longer saying that recycling will solve the problem. Banning the use of plastic packaging for food and drink products is the only answer.” Walking down the passageways of the supermarket where everything from pizza to fresh fruit and vegetables is covered in plastic. Sutherland says immediate action is needed.
Plastic pollution is causing widespread global damage. More than one million plastic bottles are bought around the world every minute, and most end up in landfill or the sea. The contamination is so wide that tap water around the world also contains plastic.
8. What is special about Earth. Food. Love?
A. It gives away boxes of food. B. It is a store without plastic bags.
C. It has few new customers. D. It is the UK’s first supermarket.
9. What caused Caldironi’s shop to be relocated to a larger place?
A. Its popularity. B. Its products. C. Its profits. D. Its similarity.
10. What does the underlined word “contamination” in last paragraph mean?
A. Pollution. B. Acceptance. C. Influence. D. Application.
11. What is the text mainly about?
A. The impact of BBC’s Blue Planet series on anti-plastics movements.
B. Rising anti-plastics movement alongside increasing environmental concerns.
C. A guide to setting up plastic-free stores to promote recycling in the whole UK.
D. Richard Eckersley’s personal journey in waste reduction and pollution prevention.

Thousands of lives have been saved by giving blood-thinning drugs to people with a heart condition that leaves them at risk of a stroke(中风), according to the head of the NHS.
Since January 2022 about 460,000 people in England who suffer from atrial fibrillation(AF)- a dangerously irregular heart rate-have begun taking one of four anticoagulant(抗凝血剂) drugs that are proved to reduce stroke risk. Speedy introduction of the drugs has kept 4,000 people alive who would otherwise have died and prevented about 17,000 strokes, according to Amanda Pritchard. Strokes kill about 27,000 people a year in England and lead to about 120,000 being taken to hospital.
A drive to encourage take-up of the drugs means 90% of the 1.5 million people in England with AF are using them. That should result in fewer strokes, which are a leading cause of death and disability, given that AF causes about one in five strokes.
“The rapid introduction of these drugs is a big step forward in providing the best possible care for patients with heart disease”, Pritchard, the leader of NHS(National Health Service) England, will say in a speech today at the King’s Fund health experts’ yearly conference.
The drugs, called direct oral anticoagulants, help stop blood from clotting(凝血), therefore reducing the risk of a clot developing and causing a stroke. In 2021 the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence recommended that doctors use four anticoagulant drugs.
Dr Maeva May, the Stroke Association’s director, thought the widespread use of the drugs as “fantastic news”, because AF accounts for one in five strokes and strokes in people with AF are more likely to result in death or serious disability.
NHS England has used its spending power to cut deals with the makers of the four drugs, which has made them much more widely available. The British Heart Foundation praised the NHS’s “great progress towards its goal of reducing stroke deaths”.
12. What is the purpose of listing numbers in paragraph 2?
A. To attract the readers’ attention to strokes.
B. To introduce the specific information about AF.
C. To show the effects of four anticoagulant drugs.
D. To summarize the steps towards reducing deaths.
13. What is the main function of anticoagulant drugs?
A. To identify signs of strokes. B. To reduce blood pressure.
C. To keep heart beating. D. To prevent blood clotting.
14. What can be inferred about NHS England and drug makers from the text?
A. They have reached some agreements. B. They have provided free treatment.
C. They have established disease funds. D. They have reminded of stroke deaths.
15. Which is the best title for the text?
A. Recognising Signs of A Heart Attack B. A Breakthrough in Stroke Prevention
C. Exploring Kinds of Anticoagulant Drugs D. NHS England’s Life-Saving Conference

61. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
My mom grew up in a poor family and lived her life without any of the material conditions often connected with happiness. Yet, for my entire life, she stood as a role model of how to live a positive, happy life. She lived her last twenty years on social security and had no cash. Still, she saved her pennies, believing to the end that she might someday field the sand of a Hawaiian beach between her toes or tour the Italian countryside.
For my mom, life was all about finding beauty in the little things. She rarely earned more than minimum wages in her lifetime. She lived paycheck to paycheck, often going without basic needs being met. It might have been easy to become bitter and disappointed. Still, my mom remained a positive thinker.
When I was a child, my parents usually had no money to go out to eat or go shopping for extras. However, my mom would scrape together (勉强凑集) two dollars and send me to the convenience store. The order was always the same: a Coke, a Charleston Chew, and a pack of baseball cards. We would sit on the porch (走廊) and share the snack while I opened the baseball cards. She would talk to me about the players, asking which ones were the best or my favorites.It was simple, yet she turned poverty into positivity.
Later, when I was deep in my career and my life as a husband and dad, my mom would call with words encouraging me when times got tough, forgetting that she was poor, her health was failing, and she lived alone. She always had the words to make me smile, words that showed a positive outlook that stood in sharp contrast to her reality.
When living alone became impossible, my mom had to move to a nursing home. For many people, that loss of freedom can break their spirit. While it was originally disastrous, she quickly filled her empty glass back up.
注意:1.续写词数应为120左右; 2.请按如下格式作答。
Para 1:I visited my mom one day and found her busy making colorful gloves.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Para 2:When I was leaving, she asked me to bring a present to Zoey, a disabled woman in our neighborhood, for Christmas.
