Mum was happy, but for me, it was going to be a journey full of uncertainty. I remember the day I first went to a community (社区) food bank. I was nervous, holding a box of canned food, not sure if I was doing it right. Everyone was busy and I felt like I was over my head. But I remembered my mum always said, “Jack, jump in with both feet,” so that was what I did. The first few weeks were difficult. I had to learn how to sort donations (捐赠品), put food boxes, and most challenging, talk to the people who needed our help. Sometimes, I wanted to give up. But then I’d see the happiness in someone’s eyes when they received a box of food and I knew I had to keep going. One day, I met Ms. Jenkins, a sweet old lady who came every week. She taught me how to make the best chocolate chip cookies and we’d chat when I worked. She became like a grandma to me and her stories made me realize (意识到) that everyone had a story worth (值得的) hearing. The real test came when we had to organize (组织) a big dinner for the community. I was in charge of (负责) decoration, which was way out of my comfort zone. But I asked my friends and together, we turned the hall into a beautiful place. Seeing the smiles on people’s faces as they enjoyed the meal we prepared was the best feeling ever. Volunteering has taught me that growing up isn’t just about getting taller or having a driver’s license. It’s about stepping up, even when you’re afraid. It’s about finding your voice and using it to make a difference. And I can’t wait to see where this journey will take me next. 24. How did Jack feel when he first went to the community food bank? A. Nervous. B. Proud. C. Bored. D. Surprised. 25. What helped Jack keep going when he wanted to give up? A. Learning to make chocolate cookies. B. Seeing happiness in people’s eyes. C. Starting to talk with people. D. Organizing the big dinner. 26. What did Jack learn from his volunteer experience? A. Volunteering is about having fun. B. Growing up means learning more skills. C. Volunteering is a good way to make friends. D. Growing up means stepping up to realize self-worth. C Nowadays, hundreds of thousands of animals around the world are facing different kinds of threats (威胁). They are in danger and in need of protection and conservation efforts. Among these threatened animals, one that needs special mention is the koala. It is close to being an endangered animal. Interestingly, the koala is partly to blame (承担责任) for its decline. Koalas are too stubborn (固执的) for their own good! When you were younger, were you a picky eater? Did your parents have to ask you to eat things that were good for you? Hopefully you listened to what they taught you and ate your dinner. Koalas are picky eaters. They live in tall eucalyptus (桉树) trees. Koalas eat the leaves of those trees. Since there are over 600 different kinds of eucalyptus trees, koalas should have no trouble finding food. But koalas are picky! They only want certain eucalyptus tree leaves to eat. Out of the 600 kinds of trees, koalas will only eat the leaves of about 120 kinds of eucalyptus trees. Some are even pickier than that. The koalas of a specific area will only eat about four or five kinds of eucalyptus leaves. They would rather starve (挨饿) than eat the other kinds. Now that’s stubborn! At present, koalas also face many threats in the wild, from deforestation, drought, disease, habitat loss (丧失) to climate change. For example, the 2019-2020 Australian bushfire season was one of the most deadly wildfires ever experienced, leading to the big loss of the tree—hugging koalas. However, the biggest problem for koalas now is that the brush (灌木丛) land in Australia is being cut down. Towns and cities are pushing farther into the brush. Since many koalas live there, they are losing their tree homes and the tree leaves that feed them. Today, scientists think that there are less than 100,000 koalas left in the wild. Luckily, governments have made laws (法律) to protect them. If we don’t act now, koalas on the east coast of Australia could disappear forever by 2050. 27. The word “decline” in Paragraph 2 probably means “________”. A. movement B. drop C. appearance D. increase 28. What do you know about koalas from Paragraph 4? A. Koalas have trouble finding eucalyptus leaves. B. Koalas eat about 600 kinds of eucalyptus leaves. C. Pickier koalas eat about four or five kinds of eucalyptus leaves. D. Pickier koalas eat other kinds of eucalyptus leaves when hungry. 29. What is the main reason for koalas to be almost endangered? A. Wildfires leads to the big loss of koalas. B. Human action causes homes and food loss. C. Koalas only eat certain eucalyptus tree leaves. D. Governments don’t make laws to protect koalas. D Do you often have to try more than once before you fit a pair of shoes correctly into their box? How well can you catch a ball? Are you good at giving directions? All of these everyday activities need spatial thinking (空间思维). So, what is spatial thinking, and is it possible to become a good spatial thinker? Spatial thinking allows us to control objects in our mind. When we imagine how to arrange (排列) our bedroom or find our way home, we are using spatial thinking. It is also important for learning maths. We use it to study and understand the relationships between shapes (形状), spaces and areas. In fact, science shows that spatial ability plays an important part in many aspects of STEM learning. This connection makes sense. Just think about the skills needed for maths, physics and other STEM subjects. For example, the spatial layout of the periodic table (元素周期表) helps us to understand chemical relationships (化学关系). The good news is that spatial skills are not set in stone and can be improved. One of the easiest ways is visualization. It means creating a mental picture of something in your mind. This has been connected to stronger science and math performance and can be improved through training. Younger children can practice visualization by imagining how to move jigsaw (拼图) pieces in their minds. Older children can use visualization when rearranging maths formulae (公式). Small world play with dollhouses or toy farm sets, for example, can help children understand spatial scale (尺度) differences. Scientists have also found that using toys like building blocks (积木) is good for spatial skills. As a final example, children who hear more spatial language may have stronger spatial skills. Words like “in”, “on” and “next to” help children understand the spatial relationships between objects. More difficult words include “parallel” and “separate”. Together with hand movements, they can help children learn difficult spatial concepts (概念). Spatial abilities have a huge influence (影响) on how we get around in our day to day lives. What’s more, taking more chances to practice our spatial thinking might also improve our STEM learning. Let us make space to develop our spatial thinking! 30. You will most probably need spatial thinking when you ________. A. study family relationships B. create a sad story in your mind C. learn English by watching movies D. use a map to find the way to a museum 31. Why does the writer use the example in Paragraph 3? A. To introduce STEM subjects. B. To describe some spatial skills. C. To show the importance of spatial ability. D. To explain the relationships of chemicals. 32 What do you know about spatial thinking from the passage? A. Imagining a picture in mind can improve spatial skills. B. Moving bands may trouble children’s spatial thinking. C. Hearing difficult words can help to learn spatial concepts. D. Listing formulae helps understand spatial scale differences. 33. What is the writer’s main purpose in writing this passage? A. To show the influence of spatial skills. B. To advise people to train spatial thinking. C. To discuss the advantages of spatial thinking. D. To compare different ways to improve spatial skills. 第二部分 本部分共5题，共20分。根据题目要求，完成相应任务。 四、阅读表达（第1-3题每题2分，第4题4分，共10分） 阅读短文，根据短文内容回答问题。 Get Lost in the Best Places What’s your dream neighbourhood (街区) like? Recently, 40 communities have been chosen as the coolest neighbourhoods in the world in 2023. Time Out, the magazine that has been hosting this event for six years, considers factors (因素) like community projects (项目), green spaces and lively streets. At the top of the list is Laureles from Colombia. There’s a famous street called La 70 where all the bars (酒吧) and restaurants turn into dance floors when the right music plays. It also has a big soccer field. You might think this community is quite noisy. But in fact, Laureles is known for being a relaxing neighbourhood. Outside of La 70, you can find peaceful parks, streets with lots of trees and many cafes. It has become a top choice for digital nomads (数字游民), who travel freely while working online on their computers. If Laureles is a mix (混合体) of both noise and peace, then Sheung Wan in Hong Kong, China, is the perfect mix of the past and the present. Once known for its funeral (丧葬) services, Sheung Wan has become an exciting place. You’ll find old temples (寺庙), antique (古董) stores and dried seafood shops there. And right beside them, there are cool art canters, Melbourne—style cafes and stores for designer clothes. Here, you’ll see citywalkers hanging out with their pets in cafes, and older people visiting cheap markets. As seen in Laureles and Sheung Wan, our communities are becoming more global (全球化的) than ever. The pandemic (流行病) has changed our lives, leading to the rise of digital nomadism. As a result, there’s a rise in multicultural centres, new community spaces and cafes. With all these changes, our neighbourhoods still feel like home because places like old farmers’ markets and stores stay. Looking ahead, we expect even more exciting neighbourhoods! 34. What factors does Time Out consider when choosing the coolest neighbourhoods? __________________________________ 35. What can people find outside of La 70? __________________________________ 36. Why do our neighbourhoods still feel like home with the changes? __________________________________ 37. Which neighbourhood would you like to live in, Laureles or Sheung Wan? Why do you think so? (Please give two reasons. ) __________________________________ 五、文段表达（共10分） 从下面两个题目中任选一题，根据所给的中文和英文提示，完成一篇不少于50词的英语文段写作。文中已给出内容不计入总词数。所给提示词语仅供选用。请不要写出真实的校名和姓名。 38. 假设你是李华，你的英国笔友Peter发来邮件，打算在寒假期间来北京旅游，期望能得到你的帮助。请你用英语回复一封邮件，就天气、交通方式、旅游景点等给他提出一些建议，并说明理由。 提示词语：weather, subway, visit, culture, enjoy 内容提示：What is your advice for Peter’s visit to Beijing?
