Though he was not rich or famous, he was ambitious and determined. One day, as he hurried through the airport, he realized he wanted a newspaper to pass the time. Getting to a vendor, he fumbled through his pockets but found he had no money. Seeing his predicament (困境), the vendor, a kind-hearted man with a warm smile, handed him a newspaper. “Take it,” he said, “it’s on me.” Gates hesitated, but the vendor insisted, “Consider it a gift. It won’t hurt me.” Months later, Gates found himself at the same airport. Once again, he had no money. Surprisingly, the same vendor was there, and again he offered Gates a free newspaper. Gates tried to refuse, explaining he still had no money, but the vendor wouldn’t hear of it. “I’m giving it from my profits (收益),” he said. “It’s my pleasure.” Years passed, and Gates became a wealthy and successful person. One day, he remembered the vendor’s generosity and felt a deep desire to repay the kindness. He spent a month and a half finding out the vendor. Gates asked with a broad smile. “Do you remember me?” The vendor looked at him closely and replied, “Yes, you’re Gates. I gave you newspapers for free twice.” Gates nodded. “I want to return the favor. Tell me what you wish for in life, and I will fulfill it.” The vendor looked at Gates thoughtfully and said, “Sir, how can your help compare to mine? I helped you when I was a poor newspaper vendor. You are offering help now that you are the richest man in the world. How can your help match mine?” In that moment, Gates realized the vendor’s generosity came from a heart that didn’t need wealth to give. From that day on, Gates carried the lesson with him: true wealth is measured not by what you have, but by what you give. 24. Gates was helped ________ by the vendor. A. once B. twice C. three times D. four times 25. Which words can best describe the vendor? A. Generous and kind. B. Kind and rich. C. Rich and successful. D. Determined and poor. 26. From the passage, we can learn that ________. A we should help people in his predicament B. helping others in need doesn’t need to be paid back C. we should thank the person who helps us when we are rich enough D. having a generous spirit is more valuable than all the money in the world 【答案】24.

This year, the day was focused on “invisible” e-waste—things most people don’t think of as electronics. Electronic waste, or e-waste, is the name given to old electronic devices that get thrown away. These can include old computers, phones, TVs, as well as all kinds of other electronic devices. As newer, more advanced devices come out, huge amounts of electronics are thrown away, instead of being recycled. These items often end up in landfills, where the chemicals inside them may be a danger to the environment. Electronics can contain hazardous materials like lead (铅) or mercury. If these materials get into the ground or water, the pollution can cause serious problems. Most electronics require rare metals. These metals, like gold, copper, lithium, and cobalt, must be mined from the earth. Often the mining process creates serious pollution. In many cases, these materials are getting harder and harder to find. If more e-waste was recycled, many of those rare metals could be taken from old electronic devices instead of being mined. A group known as WEEE (Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment Forum) is trying to make people more aware of the problems of e-waste. Recently, WEEE asked researchers from the United Nations (UN) to study a kind of e-waste that’s often not noticed because people don’t consider the items to be electronics. The WEEE calls this category “invisible” e-waste. Though it’s “invisible”, it’s certainly not a small amount. The invisible e-waste weighs about 19.8 billion pounds. The surprising category leading the invisible e-waste group was toys. Worldwide, roughly 7.3 billion electronic toys are thrown away each year. These include items like car racing sets, electric trains, musical toys, and drones. They also include toys with electronic parts, like dolls that speak or games with electronic times. In all, toys make up about 35% of invisible e-waste. But the problem is far larger than just toys. The report also shows that other everyday items like home alarms, smoke alarms, power tools, and computer cables (电缆) are also big sources of invisible e-waste. The UN report says that 36% of the world’s invisible e-waste comes from these three categories. WEEE is hoping that as more people—and governments—become aware of e-waste, they will make a much greater effort to make sure electronics get re-used or recycled. 27. Some electronics were thrown away, because ________. A. they will be recycled B. people no longer need them C. they contain some polluted chemicals D. the latest and developed devices come out 28. What do we know from the passage? A. Invisible e-waste is made up of about 35 % toys. B. “Invisible” e-waste doesn’t contain many harmful chemicals. C. Rare metals taken from old electronic will produce more pollution. D. People and the governments have made effort to solve the problems. 29. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage? A. “Invisible” E-Waste and Its problems B. The Introduction of Electronic Waste Day C. Electronic Waste Day Helps “Invisible” E-Waste D. Electronic Waste Day Highlights “Invisible” E-Waste 【答案】27. D 28. A 29. D 【解析】 【导语】本文主要讨论了国际电子垃圾日突出的“隐形”电子垃圾问题。 【27题详解】 细节理解题。根据“As newer, more advanced devices come out, huge amounts of electronics are thrown away, instead of being recycled.”可知，是因为更新、更先进的设备问世，所以一些电子设备被丢弃。故选D。 【28题详解】 细节理解题。根据“In all, toys make up about 35% of invisible e-waste.”可知，隐形电子垃圾中玩具占约35%。故选A。 【29题详解】 最佳标题题。根据“This year, the day was focused on ‘invisible’ e-waste—things most people don’t think of as electronics.”及全文可知，本文主要讨论了国际电子垃圾日突出的“隐形”电子垃圾问题。故选D。 D Are You Curious About Curiosity? Have you ever eagerly wanted to know what gift you would get for your birthday, or what your score was on a school test? Have you ever lifted a stone to see whether any creepy crawlies lived under it? These are examples of what we call curiosity. Curiosity makes people want to explore things, to seek out new information. People become curious when they know that there is something that they do not know. But People can also be curious because they want to discover something new. We call this type of curiosity general curiosity. Here, curiosity may be less about finding a specific piece of missing information, and more about discovering all sorts of new things. By following your curiosity, you may even learn something that you never knew you did not know! In the last 10 years, scientists have made progress studying curiosity. Interestingly, people are not only curious about things that make them feel good. They found that bad things can also make people curious. Maybe you have experienced this yourself when you see a fire truck rush by, and you wonder what has happened. Or maybe you have been curious about a scary part in a movie. One important aspect of curiosity is that people are often curious about information that is not directly useful. Scientists think that you may want to know these things because information itself is valuable or rewarding. But people can also be curious about information or experiences that are rewarding just for the sake of knowing them. Just as you often do something just for the sake of doing it, you may also want to know a piece of information just for the sake of knowing it. In these cases, the reward does not come from money or food, but from the experience or information itself. Curiosity can give you a mental “push” to seek out information, but curiosity may also be important for remembering that information once you have sought it out. Because you experienced curiosity, you created a new memory or learned something that you did not know before. Scientists have found that if you are curious about a piece of information, you remember this piece of information better. Curiosity can thus be a good thing, because it may help you to learn and remember things better. Curiosity stimulates people to seek information, to explore, and to find answers. So, the next time you wonder whether any creepy crawlies live under a stone, and you lift it, you may learn something new and your brain may store this information, because it is a valuable thing to learn about the world. 30. You will most probably experience curiosity when you ________. A. follow your father to explore in a cave B. have to ask for some new ideas for the party C. are showed around in your friend’s new house D. actively want to know what present is in the box 31. From the passage, we learn that ________. A. people are curious about useful information B. curiosity makes us remember the information better C. either good or bad thing makes people have curiosity D. people can’t be curious until they find something new 32 The underlined word stimulates in Paragraph 6 probably means “________”. A. controls B. influences C. encourages D. attracts 33. What is the writer’s main purpose in writing this passage? A. To stress the importance of being curious. B. To advise people to keep curiosity for learning. C. To help people to know what we are curious about. D. To explain why people are curious something new. 【答案】30. D 31. B 32. C 33. A 【解析】 【导语】本文主要介绍了好奇心的来源、种类以及作用。通过具体例子和科学研究，文章阐明了好奇心不仅能激发人们探索和获取新信息，还能帮助记忆和学习。 【30题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段的例子“Have you ever eagerly wanted to know what gift you would get for your birthday...”可以看出，好奇心常发生在你想知道某件事的时候。故选D。 【31题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段“Scientists have found that if you are curious about a piece of information, you remember this piece of information better.”可知，好奇心能帮助人们更好地记住信息，故选B。 【32题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第六段“Curiosity stimulates people to seek information, to explore, and to find answers.”以及上下文意思“好奇心推动人们去获取信息、探索并寻找答案”可推测，stimulates的意思是“鼓励、促进”。故选C。 【33题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文可知，作者通过解释好奇心的类型、好奇心的影响以及好奇心的好处，意在强调好奇心的重要性，故选A。 第二部分 本部分共5小题，共20分。根据题目要求，完成相应任务。 四、阅读表达。(1-3题每题2分，4题4分，共10分) 阅读短文，根据短文内容回答问题。 What Is Chinese Acupressure Massage (穴位按摩)? — Tui Na Have you been experiencing a high-stress level and looking for ways to relieve it? You are probably considering therapy (治疗). One of the types of therapy that can help you relieve stress is Shiatsu. It is a Chinese acupressure massage style that means finger pressure. According to Chinese medicine, the human body contains meridians (中医经脉). The Chinese believe that a particular energy force called qi runs along the meridians. Performing acupressure massage enables the energy that tends to get stuck at different points to flow. People use this form of massage therapy to improve patients’ whole feeling of being comfortable, healthy and happy. It involves using thumb and finger techniques. If energy flow gets stuck, the body fails to maintain the balance required to deal with different health issues. Performing Shiatsu can help combat (减轻) this. Since Shiatsu improves the flow of energy in the body, therapists believe that it can help manage different conditions. Therapists use Shiatsu to help minimize muscle stiffness (僵硬), menstrual cramps, and headache in patients. Many experts also use it to treat low back pain, cancer-related fatigue, and pregnancy symptoms such as morning sickness. According to most experts Chinese acupressure massage works. Even clinical evidence proves that Shiatsu is effective in dealing with such conditions. Most Chinese believe that acupressure massage treats the body and spirit and can also help regulate emotions. If you have a serious health problem, you should first consult with a doctor before going for acupressure massage therapy. Since acupressure is a complementary (补充的) type of treatment, you should not only depend on it, especially when you have a serious condition. You should avoid acupressure if you have problems such as a rash, burns, open wound, blood cancer, fever, athlete’s foot, or uncontrolled diabetes. Doing it while pregnant can be uncomfortable due to challenges such as difficulty lying on your back. If you are feeling dizzy, you should be careful during acupressure massage therapy. While some people practice acupressure by choosing professionals, some prefer at-home Shiatsu massagers. Though both options work, acupressure with a professional’s help is better since the expert can transfer energy and a sense of healing through their personal touch. 34. What does acupressure massage mean? ______________________________________ 35. What can Shiatsu improve? ______________________________________ 36. Why shouldn’t you only depend on acupressure massage therapy when you have a serious problem? ______________________________________ 37. If you feel uncomfortable, will you try acupressure massage? Why or why not? ______________________________________ 【答案】34. It means finger pressure. 35. Shiatsu improves the flow of energy in the body. 36. Acupressure is a complementary type of treatment. 37. I will try acupressure massage. Because I believe acupressure massage treats the body and spirit and can also help regulate emotions. （答案不唯一） 【解析】 【导语】本文介绍了中国的穴位按摩——推拿。 【34题详解】 根据“It is a Chinese acupressure massage style that means finger pressure.”可知，穴位按摩意味着手指压力，故填It means finger pressure. 【35题详解】 根据“Since Shiatsu improves the flow of energy in the body, therapists believe that it can help manage different conditions.”可知，指压按摩可以改善体内的能量流动，故填Shiatsu improves the flow of energy in the body. 【36题详解】 根据“Since acupressure is a complementary (补充的) type of treatment, you should not only depend on it, especially when you have a serious condition.”可知，穴位按摩是一种补充的治疗方法，不应该只依赖它，故填Acupressure is a complementary type of treatment. 【37题详解】 开放性试题，答案不唯一，参考答案为I will try acupressure massage. Because I believe acupressure massage treats the body and spirit and can also help regulate emotions. 五、文段表达。(10分) 从下面两个题目中任选一题，根据中文和英文提示，完成一篇不少于50词的文段写作。文中已给出内容不计入总词数。所给提示词语仅供选用。请不要写出你的校名和姓名。 38. 假设你是李华，你的英国笔友Chris想了解体能测试（physical fitness test）。请你用英语回复一封邮件，介绍你们学校组织的提升身体素质的锻炼活动，并谈谈你的收获。 提示词语：sit-up, run, improve, energy 提示问题：· What did you do in your school exercise activity? · What benefits have you got?

Every morning and every afternoon I ____14____ my speech till I knew it forward and backward, there would be no chance of failure. My teacher believed in me, and I wanted to show her I was worthy, that she made the right choice. Entering the school hall, it looked just like I imagined, the huge familiar hall, the whole school there. But I wasn’t afraid. I ____15____ my time to shine. I followed the cue (提示), stepped toward the headmaster who held out the microphone for me. Without notice, my head went totally blank (空白). It was so important to me. I knew what to say, but I didn’t... I was ____16____. Scare started to build up inside me. Looking around the audience, my head felt like an empty scrapbook pages from art class. The headmaster said my name again. All I could stammer was “Um ... I forgot.” The hall fell into ____17____. Then I was led off stage. I felt like a balloon with air let out. But even worse than disappointing myself — and the feeling I had ____18____ my teacher and parents; the fear that everyone would laugh at me. To my surprise, when I was sure I was the “I-Forgot” kid, my classmates came up to me and ____19____ me, even the older kids in our school. I thought I would never speak again in public.

(二)阅读下列短文，根据短文内容，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选择最佳选项。 B The Truly Rich Man Gates lived in New York. Though he was not rich or famous, he was ambitious and determined. One day, as he hurried through the airport, he realized he wanted a newspaper to pass the time. Getting to a vendor, he fumbled through his pockets but found he had no money. Seeing his predicament (困境), the vendor, a kind-hearted man with a warm smile, handed him a newspaper. “Take it,” he said, “it’s on me.” Gates hesitated, but the vendor insisted, “Consider it a gift. It won’t hurt me.” Months later, Gates found himself at the same airport. Once again, he had no money. Surprisingly, the same vendor was there, and again he offered Gates a free newspaper. Gates tried to refuse, explaining he still had no money, but the vendor wouldn’t hear of it. “I’m giving it from my profits (收益),” he said. “It’s my pleasure.” Years passed, and Gates became a wealthy and successful person. One day, he remembered the vendor’s generosity and felt a deep desire to repay the kindness. He spent a month and a half finding out the vendor. Gates asked with a broad smile. “Do you remember me?” The vendor looked at him closely and replied, “Yes, you’re Gates. I gave you newspapers for free twice.” Gates nodded. “I want to return the favor. Tell me what you wish for in life, and I will fulfill it.” The vendor looked at Gates thoughtfully and said, “Sir, how can your help compare to mine? I helped you when I was a poor newspaper vendor. You are offering help now that you are the richest man in the world. How can your help match mine?” In that moment, Gates realized the vendor’s generosity came from a heart that didn’t need wealth to give. From that day on, Gates carried the lesson with him: true wealth is measured not by what you have, but by what you give. 24. Gates was helped ________ by the vendor. A. once B. twice C. three times D. four times 25. Which words can best describe the vendor? A. Generous and kind. B. Kind and rich. C. Rich and successful. D. Determined and poor. 26. From the passage, we can learn that ________. A. we should help people in his predicament B. helping others in need doesn’t need to be paid back C. we should thank the person who helps us when we are rich enough D. having a generous spirit is more valuable than all the money in the world C October 14 was International E-Waste Day—a day meant to highlight the problems of electronic waste. This year, the day was focused on “invisible” e-waste—things most people don’t think of as electronics. Electronic waste or e-waste, is the name given to old electronic devices that get thrown away. These can include old computers, phones, TVs, as well as all kinds of other electronic devices. As newer, more advanced devices come out, huge amounts of electronics are thrown away, instead of being recycled. These items often end up in landfills, where the chemicals inside them may be a danger to the environment. Electronics can contain hazardous materials like lead (铅) or mercury. If these materials get into the ground or water, the pollution can cause serious problems. Most electronics require rare metals. These metals, like gold, copper, lithium, and cobalt, must be mined from the earth. Often the mining process creates serious pollution. In many cases, these materials are getting harder and harder to find. If more e-waste was recycled, many of those rare metals could be taken from old electronic devices instead of being mined. A group known as WEEE (Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment Forum) is trying to make people more aware of the problems of e-waste. Recently, WEEE asked researchers from the United Nations (UN) to study a kind of e-waste that’s often not noticed because people don’t consider the items to be electronics. The WEEE calls this category “invisible” e-waste. Though it’s “invisible”, it’s certainly not a small amount. The invisible e-waste weighs about 19.8 billion pounds. The surprising category leading the invisible e-waste group was toys. Worldwide, roughly 7.3 billion electronic toys are thrown away each year. These include items like car racing sets, electric trains, musical toys, and drones. They also include toys with electronic parts, like dolls that speak or games with electronic times. In all, toys make up about 35% of invisible e-waste. But the problem is far larger than just toys. The report also shows that other everyday items like home alarms, smoke alarms, power tools, and computer cables (电缆) are also big sources of invisible e-waste. The UN report says that 36% of the world’s invisible e-waste comes from these three categories. WEEE is hoping that as more people—and governments—become aware of e-waste, they will make a much greater effort to make sure electronics get re-used or recycled. 27. Some electronics were thrown away, because ________. A. they will be recycled B. people no longer need them C. they contain some polluted chemicals D. the latest and developed devices come out 28. What do we know from the passage? A. Invisible e-waste is made up of about 35 % toys. B. “Invisible” e-waste doesn’t contain many harmful chemicals. C. Rare metals taken from old electronic will produce more pollution. D. People and the governments have made effort to solve the problems. 29. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage? A. “Invisible” E-Waste and Its problems B. The Introduction of Electronic Waste Day C. Electronic Waste Day Helps “Invisible” E-Waste D Electronic Waste Day Highlights “Invisible” E-Waste D Are You Curious About Curiosity? Have you ever eagerly wanted to know what gift you would get for your birthday, or what your score was on a school test? Have you ever lifted a stone to see whether any creepy crawlies lived under it? These are examples of what we call curiosity. Curiosity makes people want to explore things, to seek out new information. People become curious when they know that there is something that they do not know. But People can also be curious because they want to discover something new. We call this type of curiosity general curiosity. Here, curiosity may be less about finding a specific piece of missing information, and more about discovering all sorts of new things. By following your curiosity, you may even learn something that you never knew you did not know! In the last 10 years, scientists have made progress studying curiosity. Interestingly, people are not only curious about things that make them feel good. They found that bad things can also make people curious. Maybe you have experienced this yourself when you see a fire truck rush by, and you wonder what has happened. Or maybe you have been curious about a scary part in a movie. One important aspect of curiosity is that people are often curious about information that is not directly useful. Scientists think that you may want to know these things because information itself is valuable or rewarding. But people can also be curious about information or experiences that are rewarding just for the sake of knowing them. Just as you often do something just for the sake of doing it, you may also want to know a piece of information just for the sake of knowing it. In these cases, the reward does not come from money or food, but from the experience or information itself. Curiosity can give you a mental “push” to seek out information, but curiosity may also be important for remembering that information once you have sought it out. Because you experienced curiosity, you created a new memory or learned something that you did not know before. Scientists have found that if you are curious about a piece of information, you remember this piece of information better. Curiosity can thus be a good thing, because it may help you to learn and remember things better. Curiosity stimulates people to seek information, to explore, and to find answers. So, the next time you wonder whether any creepy crawlies live under a stone, and you lift it, you may learn something new and your brain may store this information, because it is a valuable thing to learn about the world. 30. You will most probably experience curiosity when you ________. A. follow your father to explore in a cave B. have to ask for some new ideas for the party C. are showed around in your friend’s new house D. actively want to know what present is in the box 31. From the passage, we learn that ________. A. people are curious about useful information B. curiosity makes us remember the information better C. either good or bad thing makes people have curiosity D. people can’t be curious until they find something new 32. The underlined word stimulates in Paragraph 6 probably means “________”. A. controls B. influences C. encourages D. attracts 33. What is the writer’s main purpose in writing this passage? A. To stress the importance of being curious. B. To advise people to keep curiosity for learning. C. To help people to know what we are curious about. D. To explain why people are curious something new. 第二部分 本部分共5小题，共20分。根据题目要求，完成相应任务。 四、阅读表达。(1-3题每题2分，4题4分，共10分) 阅读短文，根据短文内容回答问题。 What Is Chinese Acupressure Massage (穴位按摩)? — Tui Na Have you been experiencing a high-stress level and looking for ways to relieve it? You are probably considering therapy (治疗). One of the types of therapy that can help you relieve stress is Shiatsu. It is a Chinese acupressure massage style that means finger pressure. According to Chinese medicine, the human body contains meridians (中医经脉). The Chinese believe that a particular energy force called qi runs along the meridians. Performing acupressure massage enables the energy that tends to get stuck at different points to flow. People use this form of massage therapy to improve patients’ whole feeling of being comfortable, healthy and happy. It involves using thumb and finger techniques. If energy flow gets stuck, the body fails to maintain the balance required to deal with different health issues. Performing Shiatsu can help combat (减轻) this. Since Shiatsu improves the flow of energy in the body, therapists believe that it can help manage different conditions. Therapists use Shiatsu to help minimize muscle stiffness (僵硬), menstrual cramps, and headache in patients. Many experts also use it to treat low back pain, cancer-related fatigue, and pregnancy symptoms such as morning sickness. According to most experts, Chinese acupressure massage works. Even clinical evidence proves that Shiatsu is effective in dealing with such conditions. Most Chinese believe that acupressure massage treats the body and spirit and can also help regulate emotions. If you have a serious health problem, you should first consult with a doctor before going for acupressure massage therapy. Since acupressure is a complementary (补充的) type of treatment, you should not only depend on it, especially when you have a serious condition. You should avoid acupressure if you have problems such as a rash, burns, open wound, blood cancer, fever, athlete’s foot, or uncontrolled diabetes. Doing it while pregnant can be uncomfortable due to challenges such as difficulty lying on your back. If you are feeling dizzy, you should be careful during acupressure massage therapy. While some people practice acupressure by choosing professionals, some prefer at-home Shiatsu massagers. Though both options work, acupressure with a professional’s help is better since the expert can transfer energy and a sense of healing through their personal touch. 34. What does acupressure massage mean? ______________________________________ 35. What can Shiatsu improve? ______________________________________ 36. Why shouldn’t you only depend on acupressure massage therapy when you have a serious problem? ______________________________________ 37. If you feel uncomfortable, will you try acupressure massage? Why or why not? ______________________________________ 五、文段表达。(10分) 从下面两个题目中任选一题，根据中文和英文提示，完成一篇不少于50词的文段写作。文中已给出内容不计入总词数。所给提示词语仅供选用。请不要写出你的校名和姓名。 38. 假设你是李华，你的英国笔友Chris想了解体能测试（physical fitness test）。请你用英语回复一封邮件，介绍你们学校组织的提升身体素质的锻炼活动，并谈谈你的收获。 提示词语：sit-up, run, improve, energy 提示问题：· What did you do in your school exercise activity? · What benefits have you got?
