But paper cutting is at the risk of disappearing. Voyo Woo, a Chinese immigrant (移民), who loves paper cutting, worked hard to celebrate the ancient art form. With a strong interest in paper cutting, Ms. Woo held a paper cutting exhibition at a shopping center near Washington. “I really love it. I get so much fun by doing it. I am just kind of hoping that more people will learn about this art which is about to disappear. I think it’s time to take action. So I held it.” Voyo Woo began to study paper cutting when she was a 14-year-old girl in southeastern China. Voyo Woo’s teacher gave her extra training after class because Voyo Woo discovered a special love for it. Later, her beautiful paper cuttings won second prize in a national painting competition. “Paper is the easiest material that you can find. You can just turn it into beautiful art. I think it is like magic to me.” Ms. Woo came to the USA after she finished college in 2008. She has been invited to show the art at a wide collection of events.

However, its effects don’t end there — it can also change the taste of food. In southwest Spain, black Iberian pigs look for food under centuries-old oak trees, a process key for the unique taste of the Jamon Iberico, a special cured ham (腌制火腿) made from these pigs. However, according to National Geographic, more heat waves and a five-year drought have reduced the number of the trees’ acorns (橡子) as well as the grass around them. Without these natural food sources, the pigs require extra feed, which changes the ham’s unique taste. Drought also affects the taste of fruits. Watermelons, for example, show significant flavor changes during drought conditions. According to researchers at the Agrifood Research and Technology Center of Aragon in Spain, compounds (化合物) such as sugars build up during drought, changing the taste of food, either for better or for worse. Beyond drought, rising temperatures and sea levels also influence food flavors. Warm days and cool nights help fruits develop the best flavor by increasing their sugar content and acidity (酸度). However, global warming is changing this. For example, Japanese apples are becoming less acidic, softer, and drier because they bloom early and grow in higher temperatures. Oysters, which do best in a mix of salt and freshwater, are losing their unique taste because rising sea levels are making their environment too salty. While the food we eat is affected by climate change, our food choices also impact the climate. Meat and milk products, especially from cows, contribute significantly to greenhouse gas emissions. Raising animals for food makes up about 14.5 percent of the world’s total greenhouse gas emissions, similar to the emissions from all vehicles combined. Producing animal protein (蛋白质) uses more land, energy and water than plant protein. While this seems like a bad cycle, it can be broken. For example, The Good Food Institute, a US-based think tank, believes people will choose alternative proteins if they are as tasty and affordable as meat. Meanwhile, more farmers are practicing “greener” farming, and when people buy local, in-season produce, the impact on the environment is reduced. 41. What has caused the change in the flavor of Jamon Iberico? A. The change in pig feeding methods due to new technology. B. The introduction of new curing techniques. C. The lack of natural feed for the pigs. D. The use of other meat sources. 42. How does drought affect the taste of fruits according to the passage? A. It decreases their acid levels. B. It adds to their water content. C. It increases their natural flavor. D. It changes their taste for better or worse. 43. What does paragraph 5 mainly talk about? A. The choices we make about food influence the environment. B. The comparison between plant and animal proteins. C. The rising carbon footprint of food production. D. The effects of farming on global warming. 44. What action can consumers take to fight climate change? A. Eating less processed food. B. Buying local and in-season food. C. Supporting traditional farming practices. D. Choosing animal protein over plant protein. 45. What’s the best title for this passage? A Shifts in Sea Levels B. Changes on Your Plate C. Droughts and Agriculture D. Greenhouse Gas Emissions 【答案】41. C 42. D 43. A 44. B 45. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了气候变化对食物味道的影响，包括干旱、温度上升和海平面升高等因素如何改变食物的风味，同时也指出了食物选择对气候的影响，并探讨了打破这一不良循环的可能方法。 【41题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段“However, according to National Geographic, more heat waves and a five-year drought have reduced the number of the trees’ acorns (橡子) as well as the grass around them. Without these natural food sources, the pigs require extra feed, which changes the ham’s unique taste.(然而，据《国家地理》报道，愈发频繁的热浪以及长达五年的干旱，减少了橡树的橡子数量以及周围的青草。没有了这些天然食物来源，这些猪就需要额外的饲料，这就改变了火腿独特的风味)”可知，热浪和干旱减少了猪的天然食物来源，猪需要额外的饲料，这改变了伊比利亚火腿的独特风味。故选C。 【42题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第三段“According to researchers at the Agrifood Research and Technology Center of Aragon in Spain, compounds (化合物) such as sugars build up during drought, changing the taste of food, either for better or for worse.(据西班牙阿拉贡农业食品研究与技术中心的研究人员称，在干旱期间，诸如糖类等化合物会积聚，从而改变食物的味道，这种改变可能是变好，也可能是变差)”可知，干旱期间糖类等化合物积聚，会使水果的味道变好或变差。故选D。 【43题详解】 主旨大意题。根据文章第五段“While the food we eat is affected by climate change, our food choices also impact the climate. Meat and milk products, especially from cows, contribute significantly to greenhouse gas emissions. Raising animals for food makes up about 14.5 percent of the world’s total greenhouse gas emissions, similar to the emissions from all vehicles combined. Producing animal protein (蛋白质) uses more land, energy and water than plant protein.(虽然我们所食用的食物受到气候变化的影响，但我们的食物选择同样也对气候产生影响。肉类和奶制品，尤其是牛肉和牛奶，是温室气体排放的重要来源。饲养食用动物所产生的温室气体排放量约占全球总量的14.5%，这与所有交通工具的排放量之和相近。生产动物蛋白比生产植物蛋白需要更多的土地、能源和水)”可知，第五段讲述了我们的食物选择会对气候产生影响，并通过肉类和奶制品排放温室气体、生产动物蛋白消耗更多资源等例子进行说明。故选A。 【44题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章最后一段“Meanwhile, more farmers are practicing “greener” farming, and when people buy local, in-season produce, the impact on the environment is reduced.(与此同时，越来越多的农民正在践行“绿色”农业，而且当人们购买本地当季农产品时，对环境的影响也会降低)”可知，消费者购买本地当季农产品，对环境的影响会降低，这是消费者可以采取的应对气候变化的行动。故选B。 【45题详解】 主旨大意题。根据文章第一段“Climate change leads to rising temperatures, increased sea levels, and drought (干旱). However, its effects don’t end there — it can also change the taste of food.(气候变化导致气温上升、海平面升高以及干旱。然而，其影响远不止于此——它还能改变食物的味道)”以及全文内容可知，文章主要讲述了气候变化如何影响食物的味道和供应。由此可知，B“Changes on Your Plate(你餐盘里的变化)”既涵盖了气候变化导致食物味道改变这一内容，又能体现我们食物选择对环境及食物本身的影响，全面概括了文章主旨。故选B。 第Ⅱ卷 注意事项： 1. 用黑色墨水的钢笔或签字笔将答案写在答题卡上。 2.本卷共6小题，共25分。 第四部分 写作（共两节，满分25分） 第一节：阅读表达（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分） 阅读短文，按照题目要求用英语回答问题。 Walter Carr’s journey to his new job at Bellhops, a furniture moving company, began with an unexpected trouble: his car broke down the night before his first day. Carr was unable to find a ride. So, he figured out how long it would take to walk from his house to the job in Pelham — 32 kilometers away. Determined not to miss his 8:00 am start time, he set out on foot at midnight, his decision unshaken by the darkness and distance. As the early morning hours began, Pelham police came across Carr walking along the highway at4:00 am. Concerned for his condition, they stopped to see if he needed help. After hearing his story, they were moved by his commitment and took him to a restaurant for breakfast. And then the police took Carr to the home of his customer, Jenny Lamey. Lamey recalled that even though Carr had just walked the whole night, he declined her offer to rest, insisting on starting work immediately. After he finished working, he talked with the customer, telling her that he and his mother moved from New Orleans to Birmingham after losing their home in Hurricane (飓风) Katrina. Lamey was deeply touched by Carr’s story and his constant work attitude and took to social media to express her admiration. She wrote this on Facebook: “I just can’t tell you how touched I was by Carr and his journey. He is kind and cheerful and he has big dreams! He is hard-working and tough.” Lamey’s post on Facebook sparked a movement. Then she started a GoFundMe page to help Carr with the costs of fixing his car. And the response was amazing. Within days, generous donors contributed over $73,000 to his cause. Carr’s boss also lent him his own car to ensure he could continue working. Walter Carr’s story quickly spread across the United States, touching the hearts of many and showing the power of determination and community support. In an act of gratitude and giving back, Carr decided to donate a portion of the funds to the Birmingham Education Foundation, which helps others have further education, fostering a cycle of kindness and inspiration. 46. Why did Carr decide to walk from his house to the job in Pelham?（no more than 15 words） ________________________________________________________________________________ 47. Who helped Carr on his way to the customer’s house? (no more than 5 words) ________________________________________________________________________________ 48. What does the underlined word mean in Paragraph 3? (1 word) ________________________________________________________________________________ 49. What does Paragraph 4 mainly talk about? (no more than 10 words) ________________________________________________________________________________ 50. What do you think of Carr? Please explain. (no more than 20 words) ________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】46. Because his car broke down, and he couldn’t find another ride. 47. Pelham police officers. 48. Refused. 49. What Jenny did to help Carr had a significant impact. 50. Open. (Carr shows strong responsibility and perseverance, refusing to give up despite challenges, truly inspiring) 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。主要讲述的是Walter Carr在新车故障后，徒步32公里赴新工作，其责任心和坚韧不拔的精神感动社区并获得广泛支持的故事。 【46题详解】 考查细节理解。根据第一段中的“Walter Carr’s journey to his new job at Bellhops, a furniture moving company, began with an unexpected trouble: his car broke down the night before his first day. Carr was unable to find a ride.(Walter Carr在Bellhops(一家家具搬家公司)的新工作之旅始于一个意想不到的麻烦：他的车在第一天上班的前一天晚上抛锚了。卡尔找不到车)”可知，Walter Carr在上班的前一天晚上汽车出现故障，找不到其他的车，所以为了确保不迟到，他决定步行32公里去上班。故答案为：Because his car broke down, and he couldn’t find another ride.。 【47题详解】 考查细节理解。根据第二段中的“As the early morning hours began, Pelham police came across Carr walking along the highway at4:00 am.(凌晨4点，Pelham警方在高速公路上遇到了Carr)”以及“And then the police took Carr to the home of his customer, Jenny Lamey.(然后警察把Carr带到了他的顾客Jenny Lamey的家里)”可知，出于关心，警察停下来提供帮助，并最终将他送到了客户Jenny Lamey的家中，因此，帮助他的是Pelham的警察。故答案为：Pelham police officers.。 【48题详解】 考查词句猜测。根据划线单词前的“Lamey recalled that even though Carr had just walked the whole night (Lamey回忆说，尽管Carr走了一整夜)”以及划线单词后的“insisting on starting work immediately(坚持立即开始工作)”可知，尽管Carr走了一整夜，仍坚持立即开始工作，由此可知，Carr“拒绝”休息，所以划线单词declined的意思与refused意义相近。故答案为：Refused.。 【49题详解】 考查主旨大意。根据第四段中的“She wrote this on Facebook: “I just can’t tell you how touched I was by Carr and his journey. He is kind and cheerful and he has big dreams! He is hard-working and tough.” Lamey’s post on Facebook sparked a movement. Then she started a GoFundMe page to help Carr with the costs of fixing his car.(她在脸书上写道：“我无法形容Carr和他的旅程让我有多感动。他善良，开朗，有远大的梦想！他很努力，也很坚强。”Lamey 在Facebook上的帖子引发了一场运动。然后，她在GoFundMe网站上建立了一个页面，帮助Carr 支付修车的费用)”可知，Jenny Lamey将Carr的事迹发布到网上，并帮他支付修车的费用，结合下文的“And the response was amazing. Within days, generous donors contributed over $73,000 to his cause. Carr’s boss also lent him his own car to ensure he could continue working.(反响是惊人的。几天之内，慷慨的捐赠者为他的事业捐款超过73,000美元。Carr的老板还把自己的车借给他，以确保他能继续工作)”可知，对Jenny Lamey发布的关于Carr的事迹，反响惊人，很多人给予Carr帮助，由此可知，本段主要讲述的是Jenny对Carr的帮助产生了重大影响。故答案为：What Jenny did to help Carr had a significant impact.。 【50题详解】 开放性题目。根据首段的“So, he figured out how long it would take to walk from his house to the job in Pelham — 32 kilometers away. Determined not to miss his 8:00 am start time, he set out on foot at midnight, his decision unshaken by the darkness and distance.(所以，他算出了从他家走到32公里外的佩勒姆工作地点需要多长时间。为了不错过早上8点的出发时间，他在午夜步行出发，他的决定没有被黑暗和距离所动摇)”以及第三段中的“Lamey recalled that even though Carr had just walked the whole night, he declined her offer to rest, insisting on starting work immediately.(Lamey 回忆说，尽管Carr 刚刚走了一整晚，但他拒绝了她让他休息的提议，坚持要立即开始工作)”可知，Carr在汽车出现问题的情况下为保证不会迟到决心步行32公里到工作地点，并且到达后立即开始工作，由此可以推断，Carr展现了极强的责任感和坚持不懈的精神，即使面对困难也不放弃。故答案为：Carr shows strong responsibility and perseverance, refusing to give up despite challenges, truly inspiring. 第二节：书面表达（满分15分） 51. 假设你是晨光中学的学生李津。你的英国笔友Chris对中国春节在全球范围内的庆祝活动感到好奇，并在Understanding China网站上发布了一个帖子，询问中国春节如何成为全球性的庆祝活动。请根据以下提示留言： 1.描述中国春节庆祝活动的全球影响力； 2.分享你个人如何庆祝春节，以及你认为春节对中国人的意义； 3.邀请 Chris在春节期间来中国度假，亲身体验春节的庆祝活动。 注意： 1.词数不少于100； 2.可适当加入细节，使内容充实、行文连贯。 @ Chris Posted on Jan.10,2025 3:00 PM ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】One possible version: @ Chris Posted on Jan.16,2025 9:40 AM Hi Chris, The Spring Festival, or Chinese New Year, has grown into a global celebration.

B The UNESCO (联合国教科文组织)has recognized the Chinese art of paper cutting on its Intangible Cultural Heritage List (非物质文化遗产名单). But paper cutting is at the risk of disappearing. Voyo Woo, a Chinese immigrant (移民), who loves paper cutting, worked hard to celebrate the ancient art form. With a strong interest in paper cutting, Ms. Woo held a paper cutting exhibition at a shopping center near Washington. “I really love it. I get so much fun by doing it. I am just kind of hoping that more people will learn about this art which is about to disappear. I think it’s time to take action. So I held it.” Voyo Woo began to study paper cutting when she was a 14-year-old girl in southeastern China. Voyo Woo’s teacher gave her extra training after class because Voyo Woo discovered a special love for it. Later, her beautiful paper cuttings won second prize in a national painting competition. “Paper is the easiest material that you can find. You can just turn it into beautiful art. I think it is like magic to me.” Ms. Woo came to the USA after she finished college in 2008. She has been invited to show the art at a wide collection of events. She also has shown her skill and works at famous museums like the Smithsonian Institution’s Freer and Sackler art museum in Washington. “I saw so many people coming to me and asking me. They were amazed. I think it is important to introduce the art form to American people or anyone who is interested.” Ms. Woo placed examples of her art around her as she displayed paper cutting at the shopping center. Ann Russ a shopper, was attracted by the fine nature of the work. She said it put her at case. “I appreciate Chinese art because I find it very beautiful. It is almost relaxing to put that much effort into it. It is amazing that Chinese art can be favored by people from other cultural backgrounds,” Ms. Russ said. 36.

However, its effects don’t end there — it can also change the taste of food. In southwest Spain, black Iberian pigs look for food under centuries-old oak trees, a process key for the unique taste of the Jamon Iberico, a special cured ham (腌制火腿) made from these pigs. However, according to National Geographic, more heat waves and a five-year drought have reduced the number of the trees’ acorns (橡子) as well as the grass around them. Without these natural food sources, the pigs require extra feed, which changes the ham’s unique taste. Drought also affects the taste of fruits. Watermelons, for example, show significant flavor changes during drought conditions. According to researchers at the Agrifood Research and Technology Center of Aragon in Spain, compounds (化合物) such as sugars build up during drought, changing the taste of food, either for better or for worse. Beyond drought, rising temperatures and sea levels also influence food flavors. Warm days and cool nights help fruits develop the best flavor by increasing their sugar content and acidity (酸度). However, global warming is changing this. For example, Japanese apples are becoming less acidic, softer, and drier because they bloom early and grow in higher temperatures. Oysters, which do best in a mix of salt and freshwater, are losing their unique taste because rising sea levels are making their environment too salty. While the food we eat is affected by climate change, our food choices also impact the climate. Meat and milk products, especially from cows, contribute significantly to greenhouse gas emissions. Raising animals for food makes up about 14.5 percent of the world’s total greenhouse gas emissions, similar to the emissions from all vehicles combined. Producing animal protein (蛋白质) uses more land, energy and water than plant protein. While this seems like a bad cycle, it can be broken. For example, The Good Food Institute, a US-based think tank, believes people will choose alternative proteins if they are as tasty and affordable as meat. Meanwhile, more farmers are practicing “greener” farming, and when people buy local, in-season produce, the impact on the environment is reduced. 41. What has caused the change in the flavor of Jamon Iberico? A. The change in pig feeding methods due to new technology. B. The introduction of new curing techniques. C. The lack of natural feed for the pigs. D. The use of other meat sources. 42. How does drought affect the taste of fruits according to the passage? A. It decreases their acid levels. B. It adds to their water content. C. It increases their natural flavor. D. It changes their taste for better or worse. 43. What does paragraph 5 mainly talk about? A. The choices we make about food influence the environment. B. The comparison between plant and animal proteins. C. The rising carbon footprint of food production. D. The effects of farming on global warming. 44. What action can consumers take to fight climate change? A. Eating less processed food. B. Buying local and in-season food. C. Supporting traditional farming practices. D. Choosing animal protein over plant protein. 45. What’s the best title for this passage? A. Shifts in Sea Levels B. Changes on Your Plate C. Droughts and Agriculture D. Greenhouse Gas Emissions 第Ⅱ卷 注意事项： 1. 用黑色墨水的钢笔或签字笔将答案写在答题卡上。 2.本卷共6小题，共25分。 第四部分 写作（共两节，满分25分） 第一节：阅读表达（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分） 阅读短文，按照题目要求用英语回答问题。 Walter Carr’s journey to his new job at Bellhops, a furniture moving company, began with an unexpected trouble: his car broke down the night before his first day. Carr was unable to find a ride. So, he figured out how long it would take to walk from his house to the job in Pelham — 32 kilometers away. Determined not to miss his 8:00 am start time, he set out on foot at midnight, his decision unshaken by the darkness and distance. As the early morning hours began, Pelham police came across Carr walking along the highway at4:00 am. Concerned for his condition, they stopped to see if he needed help. After hearing his story, they were moved by his commitment and took him to a restaurant for breakfast. And then the police took Carr to the home of his customer, Jenny Lamey. Lamey recalled that even though Carr had just walked the whole night, he declined her offer to rest, insisting on starting work immediately. After he finished working, he talked with the customer, telling her that he and his mother moved from New Orleans to Birmingham after losing their home in Hurricane (飓风) Katrina. Lamey was deeply touched by Carr’s story and his constant work attitude and took to social media to express her admiration. She wrote this on Facebook: “I just can’t tell you how touched I was by Carr and his journey. He is kind and cheerful and he has big dreams! He is hard-working and tough.” Lamey’s post on Facebook sparked a movement. Then she started a GoFundMe page to help Carr with the costs of fixing his car. And the response was amazing. Within days, generous donors contributed over $73,000 to his cause. Carr’s boss also lent him his own car to ensure he could continue working. Walter Carr’s story quickly spread across the United States, touching the hearts of many and showing the power of determination and community support. In an act of gratitude and giving back, Carr decided to donate a portion of the funds to the Birmingham Education Foundation, which helps others have further education, fostering a cycle of kindness and inspiration. 46.
