This garden reached a peak during the Renaissance and has barely changed since. Its fundamental principles remain elegance and relaxation. Giardino Giusti, in the northern city of Verona and once well-known among the influential families of 16th-century Europe, showcases this timeless artistry. Adult €15, child €9. Stavros Niarchos Park, Athens, Greece There’s no need to leave the capital to experience Greece’s silver-leaved evergreens. Formerly a car park for the 2004 Olympic Games, the Stavros Niarchos Foundation Cultural Centre was designed by Italian architect Renzo Piano in 2016 to house Greece’s national library, opera and a forward-thinking public park. With a gentle slope (斜坡) designed to restore a vital sea view, the park has olive-tree walks, environment-friendly planting, fountains, a vast roof garden and a playground. Free. Latour-Marliac, Aquitaine, France The inspiration behind Monet’s water lily (睡莲 ) paintings can be found at Latour-Marliac, 400 miles to the south of the impressionist’s Giverny garden. The former home and experimental ground of 19th-century plantsman Joseph Bory Latour-Marliac, this garden in the Lot-et-Garonne department was where Monet purchased the many-coloured lilies for his garden in Normandy. Adult €8, child €4. Jonsered Gardens, near Gothenburg, Sweden Once the home of industrial pioneer William Gibson, who provided living, healthcare and childcare facilities at Jonsered for the workers at his canvas mill (帆布厂), the gardens were reimagined in 2010 with a progressive view towards improved accessibility and biodiversity. A 20-minute train ride from the centre of Gothenburg, Jonsered features formal, decorative and kitchen gardens as well as a “classic English Garden”, which was designed in 2016 by British garden writer Susie White as part of a cultural exchange. Free. 21. How much should a couple and their child pay if they go on a tour of Giardino Giusti? A. €18. B. €24. C. €30. D. €39. 22. What do we know about Latour-Marliac? A.

B Before he started a company 15 years ago selling the world’s smelliest fruit, Eric Chan had a well-paying job writing code for satellites and robots. His family and friends were puzzled when he made the career change. The fruit, durian (榴莲), has long been a cherished part of local cultures in Southeast Asia, where it is grown in abundance. A single durian is typically the size of a rugby ball and can emit an odor (气味) so powerful that it is banned from most hotels.When Mr. Chan began his start-up in his native Malaysia, durians were cheap and often sold from the back of trucks. Then, China acquired a taste for durian in a very big way. Last year, the value of durian exports from Southeast Asia to China was $6.7 billion, a twelvefold increase from $550 million in 2017. China buys virtually all of the world’s exported durians, according to United Nations data. Today, businesses are expanding rapidly -- one Thai company is planning an initial public offering this year -- and some durian farmers have become millionaires. Mr. Chan is one of them. Seven years ago, he sold a controlling share of his company, which specializes in producing durian paste for cookies, ice cream and even pizza, for about $4.5 million, nearly 50 times his initial investment. “Everybody has been making good money,” Mr. Chan said of the once-poor durian farmers in Raub, a small city 90 minutes from Kuala Lumpur, the Malaysian capital. “They rebuilt their houses from wood to brick. And they can afford to send their children overseas for university.” Farmers in Southeast Asian durian orchards(果园) say they can’t recall anything like the China craze. When an increasingly wealthy country of 1.4 billion people gets a taste for something, entire regions of Asia are reshaped to meet the demand. In Vietnam, state news media reported last month that farmers were cutting down coffee plants to make room for durian. And in Malaysia, jungles in the hills outside Raub are being razed and terraced(开 垦梯田) to make way for plantations that will cater to China’s need for the fruit. “I think durian will be the new economic boom for Malaysia,” said Mohamad Sabu, the country’s minister of agriculture. 24. What can be learned about durians from the text? A. They used to be inexpensive in Southeast Asia. B. They are widely grown both in China and Malaysia. C. Eric Chan turned them into a popular fruit in China. D. Southeast Asians don’t eat them due to their odor. 25. Which of the following is true according to Para.3? A. The number of durian farmers in China has increased sharply. B. The durian export market has remained stable over the years. C. China is the biggest consumer of the world’s exported durians. D. The value of durian exports has decreased significantly since 2017. 26. What impact has China’s demand for durians had on Southeast Asian agriculture? A. Farmers are growing durians in other countries. B. The profitability of coffee plants is decreasing. C. Farmers are turning other lands into durian orchards. D. New technology is applied to increase durian productivity. 27. What is the primary subject of the text? A. The unexpected craze for tropical fruits in China. B. The impact of China’s demand for durians on Southeast Asia. C. The career change of Eric Chan from coding to selling durians. D. The history and cultural significance of durians in Southeast Asia. C The deep sea has long been treated as somehow separate from the surface world, a shadowy non-place populated by alien creatures. While this is partly a response to the difficulty of studying it, it also reflects a rooted tendency. As the writer Robert Macfarlane has observed, humans are creatures of the air and light, and we have often regarded the spaces beneath our feet with prejudice, associating them with death, the unseen and unnameable. And while what Macfarlane calls the underland might be a place of ritual (宗教仪式) power as well as a place of burial, the ocean’s depths are more frequently linked with loss and forgetting. For European sailors across the waters of the Mediterranean sea and the Atlantic and Indian oceans, however, all that really mattered in navigational practices was knowing where potential obstacles and risks such as reefs and sandbars lay -- a way of thinking that transformed the ocean’s depths into a blank irrelevance. It was not until the early 19th century that a more detailed scientific understanding of the deep began to take shape. In part, this was a result of the growing reach of the colonial powers: as the commercial and territorial desire of Europeans and Americans expanded to envelop the globe, the need for more accurate and more detailed knowledge of the ocean grew as well. But it also grew out of the experiences of whalers, whose voyages were now taking them far out into the open waters of the Atlantic and Pacific, and leading to an awareness of the great depths to which whales would often dive. But it was not until the Challenger expedition round the world on its pioneering scientific survey of the world’s oceans in the 1870s that the true extent of the deep ocean finally started to emerge. In the north-west Pacific, where the Mariana Trench plunges downwards into the planet’s crust (地壳), HMS Challenger recorded depths of more than 8,000 metres. Perhaps even more stunning to the scientists of the day, though, was Challenger’s discovery of tiny shells -- and therefore living things -- more than 7,000 metres down. 28. What is the common perception of the deep ocean? A. It is seen as a safe shelter for endangered species. B. It is often associated with death and the unknown. C. It is viewed as a place of ritual power and respect. D. It is regarded as a mysterious hiding place of treasures. 29. The European sailors viewed the deep ocean as _________. A. a place full of alien-like creatures. B. a navigational guide to avoid dangers. C. an important area to map and understand. D. an insignificant area unworthy of exploration. 30. What significant discovery did the Challenger expedition make? A. It recorded the first accurate depths of the ocean. B. It successfully sailed across all of the oceans in the world. C. It discovered living organisms at depths of the deep ocean. D. It found that no life could exist at depths greater than 7,000 metres. 31. What is the most appropriate title for the passage? A. The Evolution of Deep Sea Exploration. B. European Sailors and Ocean Navigation. C. The Fear and Mystery of the Deep Ocean. D. The Underland: A Place of Ritual and Burial. D They declared that it was dead - or, if it wasn’t dead yet, it soon would be. The cause of its death was viral: first blogs, then influencers on Instagram and TikTok. Yet, for all journalists’ poor prediction, the printed travel guide is still going strong. Sales in Britain were mostly flat in 2014-19, a period when smartphones became both widespread and powerful. But why do guidebooks still roll off the presses when all the information you could need is in your pocket? One answer is that print is a useful medium for information on the go. Books can be scribbled (涂 写) on and marked; they need no charging or internet access. Another is that guidebooks have changed with the times. Nitya Chambers, Lonely Planet’s executive editor, says the innovation was driven by market research that showed that readers “have more information than ever before” on eating and stays, but are looking for things to do. If print books are no longer selling comprehensiveness, then what is it they are selling? One answer is authenticity. “I can’t help people that just want to do what everybody else does,” Mr Steves says. Another is simplicity. “The more content out there, the better for guide publishers,” says Rene Frey, who publishes Rough Guides and Insight Guides. Trust-or, rather, brand-is important. Mr Steves and Lonely Planet’s founders, Tony and Maureen Wheeler, all produced their first guides decades ago, in an era when both international travel and self-publishing were expensive and rare. That allowed them to stand out and build businesses. Now, thanks to cheap air fares and social media, anyone can comment on restaurants on the other side of the world. But ambitious travel writers will find that it is hard to gain wide attention online. One market in which guidebooks have struggled is China, the world’s biggest spender on oversea tourism. On June 26th Lonely Planet announced that it was closing its China branch after ten years. Many Chinese travel as part of organized tours, so see no need for guides; younger travellers are more likely to organize their own routes, but rely on digital resources rather than books. The most popular app for tourists is Xiaohongshu, which Rest of World, a digital news outlet, describes as “a cross between a niche subreddit, a Tripadvisor page and a video game”. Gaode, a map app, offers user-generated lists of “must-visit sites”. Perhaps, in time, similar apps may take off in the West. 32. What does the underlined phrase in Para.2 probably mean? A. lose balance and fall from the printer. B. turn over and face a different direction. C. become unpopular and gradually forgotten. D. get printed and published in large quantities. 33. What does the example of Tony and Maureen Wheeler illustrate? A. The value of building a brand in the travel guide industry. B. The contradictory opinions about restaurants on social media. C. The decline of people’s attention on travel writings and guides. D. The importance of offering the most comprehensive information. 34. How do Chinese travellers obtain information? A. By consulting international travel agencies. B. By sharing lists of sites with friends and families. C. Through printed travel guides like Lonely Planet. D. By relying on organized tours and mobile applications. 35. The author’s attitude towards the future of travel guides in the West is ________. A. uncertain. B. optimistic. C. pessimistic. D. disapproval. 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。 Culture shock is the feeling of losing direction experienced by someone suddenly subjected to an unfamiliar culture and way of life. 36.________. This guide will inform you of the different stages of culture shock, helping you be better mentally prepared. The Honeymoon Stage The first stage of culture shock is often overwhelmingly positive during which travelers become fascinated with the language, people and food in their new surroundings. 37.________. On short trips, the honeymoon phase may take over the entire experience as the later effects of culture shock don’t have time to set in. The Frustration Stage Frustration may be the most difficult stage of culture shock and is probably familiar to anyone who has lived abroad or who travels frequently. At this stage, the stress of not understanding gestures, signs and the language sets in and miscommunications may be happening frequently. Small things -- losing keys, missing the bus or not being able to easily order food in a restaurant -- may trigger frustration. 38.________. These are common phenomenon that people tend to see as natural reactions. The Adjustment Stage 39.________. Navigation becomes easier, friends and communities of support are established and details of local languages may become more recognizable during the adjustment stage. People are comfortable with the cultures, people, food and languages of new environments. The Acceptance Stage Generally -- though sometimes weeks, months or years after wrestling with the emotional stages outlined above -- the final stage of culture shock is acceptance. Acceptance doesn’t mean that new cultures or languages are fully grasped. 40.________. During the acceptance stage, travelers have the familiarity and are able to draw together the resources they need to feel at ease. A. It will fade out eventually as a result. B. It can be a difficult and overwhelming time. C. Travelers interpret culture shocks in unexpected ways. D. Then, depression and homesickness are bound to follow. E. People realize a complete understanding isn’t necessary. F. The experience seems like the greatest decision ever made. G. Frustration often moderates as travelers begin feeling familiar. 第三部分：语言知识运用(共三节, 满分50分) 第一节 (共15小题;每小题1分, 满分15分) 阅读下面短文,从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中,选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 When I was in third grade, my family and I took on an unforgettable trip across the country.

They had worked hard on rehearsals (排练), refining every line and movement to perfection. But on the day of the grand show, their dreams fell apart. As Melanie stumbled over (说错) her lines and the tension on stage became obvious, Judith could hear the murmurs of dissatisfaction from the audience. When the curtain finally closed, Judith turned to see Melanie’s eyes filled with tears. “I’m so sorry, Judith,” Melanie whispered. “I ruined everything.” Judith wanted to say some words of comfort, but the pain of their failure was too fresh. Instead, she just shook her head silently and walked away. In the days that followed, Judith and Melanie’s once-close friendship began to fall apart. Melanie, feeling guilty, stayed away from the drama club, avoiding Judith and any chance to perform. Judith, on the other hand, poured her sorrow into her academics. A few weeks later, their school organized an outdoor team-building trip, so the two friends had to face the problems between them. Paired together for a series of challenging activities, they didn’t work well with each other. Then their friendly instructor Freya discovered their tension. “I can see there’s something holding you two back,” Freya said, her eyes studying the girls. “Want to share what’s going on?” “It’s just ...” Melanie began. “We used to be so close, but then I messed up that big show, and I...” She stopped hesitantly. “I see,” Freya said thoughtfully. “Well, I’ve seen my fair share of setbacks. But you know what I’ve also seen? The power of friendship to overcome them.” As Freya shared stories of her own struggles and the lessons she had learned, Judith and Melanie found themselves nodding in understanding. “The truth is,” Freya said, “we all make mistakes. But the real test of a friendship is how you support each other through the hard times.” 注意：1. 续写词数应为 150 左右； 2. 请按如下格式在相应位置作答。 Seeing the girls were still awkward with each other, Freya realized that she could do something. ___ _____________________________________________________________________________________ On the last day of the trip, Judith and Melanie took the stage for a shared performance. __________ _____________________________________________________________________________________ 湖北省鄂南高级中学2023级高二上期末考试 英语参考答案 第一部分 听力： 1-5 ABBCA 6-10 ACABB 11-15 ACABC 16-20 BBAAC 第二部分 阅读： 21-23 DBC 24-27 ACCB 28-31 BDCA 32-35 DADB 36-40 BFDGE 第三部分 语言知识运用： 第一节 完形填空： 41-45 BAACB 46-50 DACAD 51-55 CDBCA 第二节 语法填空： 56. shipped 57. a 58. to scare 59. what 60. favorites 61.

Emojis allow us to express emotions that can be difficult to convey through text alone. They add personality, warmth and clarity to our messages. When used appropriately, emojis can make our interactions more engaging and relatable. Additionally, emojis serve as a universal language that bridges cultural barriers, making online communication more inclusive and accessible for everyone. Overall, the sensible use of emojis can significantly improve the quality of our digital exchanges. 读后续写范文 One possible version: Seeing the girls were still awkward with each other, Freya realized that she could do something. She suggested they prepare a short performance for the campfire night on the last day of the trip. The girls exchanged uncertain looks. But they agreed when they saw the glimmer of hope in Freya’s eyes, realizing that this might be the chance they had been waiting for to rebuild the bridge they had lost. Over the next few days, they worked together, choosing a piece that held deep meaning for both of them. As they practiced, old memories resurfaced, and they began to open their hearts, laughing and supporting each other just as they used to. On the last day of the trip, Judith and Melanie took the stage for a shared performance. Melanie, though still nervous, drew strength from Judith’s unwavering support and the lessons learned from Freya. The lines flowed naturally and their movements were in perfect harmony, as if they were dancing to the rhythm of their shared dream. Together, they delivered a heartfelt and moving performance, receiving thunderous applause. They not only overcame their individual fears and setbacks, but also rediscovered the power of their bond. From that day forward, they stood side by side, supporting and encouraging each other, not just onstage but in every aspect of their lives. 答案解析 A 篇 21-23: DBC 21. 文章第一段最后一句“Adult €15, child €9”意思是“成人 15 欧元，儿童 9 欧元”。 所以一对夫妇和他们的孩子一共需要支付 15+15+9=39 欧元。因此选项 D 正确。 22. 文章第三段第一句“ The inspiration behind Monet’s water lily paintings can be found at Latour-Marliac”意思是“莫奈睡莲画的灵感来自 Latour-Marliac”。由此可知，莫奈因为 Latour-Marliac 的睡莲而受到启发，所以选项 B 正确。 23. 文章最后一段第一句“Once the home of industrial pioneer William Gibson”意思是“工业先驱 William Gibson 曾经的家园”。由此可知，Jonsered Gardens的主人是William，所以选项 C 正确。 B 篇 24-27: ACCB 24. 由第二段可知，榴莲是东南亚常见的水果，曾经榴莲很便宜，放在卡车后面卖，后来中国人喜 欢上了榴莲，榴莲开始大量出口中国，因此A正确。 25. 文章第三段“... China buys virtually all of the world’s exported durians”东南亚对中国的榴莲出口 贸易十分红火，出口额增加了十几倍，而且几乎所有出口的榴莲都是中国买的，即中国是出口榴莲 的最大消费国，因此C正确。 26. 由最后一段可知，中国对榴莲的巨大需求使东南亚许多农民开始种植榴莲，而且把其他作物和 土地都变成榴莲种植园，因此C正确。 27. 本文主要讲述了中国对榴莲的巨大需求如何促进了东南亚对中国的榴莲出口贸易，以及对东南 亚经济和农业带来的影响，因此B正确。 C 篇 28-31: BDCA 28. 由第二段“... we have often regarded the spaces beneath our feet with bias, associating them with death, the unseen and unnameable”可知，人类生活的明亮和有空气的陆地，因此认为海底深处与死 亡、未知相关，对海底的态度是负面的，因此B正确。C项是一位作家对地下世界的看法，而非对 海底的普遍看法，因此错误。 29. 文章第三段意思是“欧洲水手在航行时只关注要避开海面的障碍，对于海面之下的深处没有进 行探索，海底于是成了无关紧要的空白地带”，因此D正确。 30. 文章提到挑战者号在太平洋西北部记录了海洋深度，并在海底7000米的地方发现了生物，因此 C正确。文章没有提到比7000米更深的地方有没有生物，因此D错误。 31. 这篇文章讨论了历史上对深海作为一个独立而神秘的领域的看法，以及这种看法是如何随着科 学探索，特别是挑战者号探险而开始改变的。重点是我们对深海的理解的演变，故选A。选项C过 于狭隘，专注于恐惧和神秘，而选项D过于具体，只提到了简单的地下概念。选项D错误，因为这 篇文章主要不是关于航海的，而是关于对深海更广泛的了解。 D 篇 32-35: DADB 32. 在文章中“roll off the presses”这个短语用来描述尽管现在所有的信息都可以在口袋里的设备上 找到，指南书仍然被大量印刷并发行的情况。这个短语形象地描述了书籍被连续不断地从印刷机上 生产出来，进入市场的过程，故选D。 33. 文章第四段提到，孤独星球的创始人惠勒夫妇在几十年前就出版了旅行指南书，当时做这方面 业务的人还很少，于是他们就创立了自己的品牌，并获得了读者的信任，品牌对于指南书来说是很 重要的，故选A。 34. 由最后两段可知，中国游客在旅行时更习惯于在网上搜索资料，最受游客欢迎的手机应用是小 红书，此外跟团游也是一个选择，因此D正确。 35. 文章开头就表明虽然有很多人认为旅行指南书将被网络淘汰，但它们在英美市场的销量一直比 较稳定，而且文章主要分析了旅行指南书相比于网络信息的优势所在，因此作者对旅行指南书的未 来是持乐观态度的，B正确。最后一句作者说有可能类似的app也会在西方流行，但没有具体说明 这些app对指南书的影响，因此不表明作者持悲观态度，C错误。 七选五 36-40: BFDGE 36. 根据上文 “Culture shock is the feeling of losing direction experienced by someone suddenly subjected to an unfamiliar culture and way of life. (文化冲击是指某人突然适应一种不熟悉的文化和 生活方式而失去方向的感觉。)”和下文“This guide will inform you of the different stages of culture shock, helping you be better mentally prepared. (本指南将告诉你文化冲击的不同阶段，帮助你更好地 做好心理准备。) ”可知设空处应是说文化冲击很难应对，所以下文对文化冲击的阶段进行介绍，这 样可以帮助旅行者做好心理准备，B选项“这可能是一段困难而不堪重负的时期。”符合题意，故选 B。 37. 根据上文“The first stage of culture shock is often overwhelmingly positive during which travelers become fascinated with the language, people and food in their new surroundings. (文化冲击的第一阶段 通常是非常积极的，在此期间，旅行者会被新环境的语言、人和食物所吸引。)”所以可推断下文会 说旅行者会很满意自己所做的决定，出来旅游，因为会被新环境的语言、人和食物所吸引，所以F 选项“这次经历似乎是做过的最伟大的决定。”符合题意，紧扣上文，故选F。 38. 根据上文“Frustration may be the most difficult stage of culture shock and is probably familiar to anyone who has lived abroad or who travels frequently. At this stage, the stress of not understanding gestures, signs and the language sets in and miscommunications may be happening frequently. Small things — losing keys, missing the bus or not being able easily order food in a restaurant-may trigger frustration. (挫折可能是文化冲击中最困难的阶段，对于在国外生活过或经常旅行的人来说，这可能 是很熟悉的。在这个阶段，不理解手势、手势和语言的压力开始出现，沟通不畅可能会频繁发生。 一些小事情——丢了钥匙，错过了公共汽车，或者在餐馆里不能轻易点餐——都可能引发挫败感。 )”可知在外国旅游遇见麻烦的时候就会更加想家，所以选项D“然后，抑郁和思乡之情必然会随之而 来。”切题，故选D。 39. 根据下文“Navigation becomes easier, friends and communities of support are established and details of local languages may become more recognizable during the adjustment stage. People are comfortable with the cultures, people, food and languages of new environments. (在调整阶段，导航变得更容易，建 立朋友和支持社区，当地语言的细节可能会变得更加清晰。人们对新环境的文化、人、食物和语言 都很适应。)”可知旅行者在调整阶段对新环境的文化、人、食物和语言都适应了，所以不会再有很 强的挫败感，G选项“当旅行者开始感到熟悉时，挫败感往往会缓和下来。”下文正是对G选项给出 的原因，故选G。 40. 根据上文“Generally — though sometimes weeks, months or years after wrestling with the emotional stages outlined above — the final stage of culture shock is acceptance. Acceptance doesn’t mean that new cultures or languages are fully grasped. (一般来说——尽管有时在经历了上述情感阶段后的几周、几 个月或几年——文化冲击的最后阶段是接受。接受并不意味着完全掌握新的文化或语言。)”说明旅 行者已经接受了新的文化，也就是意识到完全理解是不必要的。所以E选项“人们意识到完全理解 是不必要的。”符合题意，故选E。 完形填空 【导语】本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。文章主要讲述了作者一家进行了一场难忘的全国旅行，这场旅行 让整个家庭变得更亲密了，而且这场旅行也让作者懂得了旅行的真正意义。 【41题详解】 考查形容词词义辨析。句意：事实证明，这不仅仅是一次现实的旅行；这是一次探索我们关系的旅 行。A. rather than而不是；B. more than不仅是；C. no more than不过是；D. less than少于。根据句中 的“it was a journey of discovery into our ___42___”可知，这次旅行还是一次探索发现更深层次东西 之旅，由此可知，这不仅仅是一场现实的旅行。故选B。 【42题详解】 考查名词词义辨析。句意参考上题。A. relationships关系；B. potentials潜力；C. dreams梦想；D. inspirations灵感。根据下文中的“the family bonds formed”可知，这场旅行让家庭关系更亲密了，所 以这是一场探索家庭关系的旅行。故选A。 【43题详解】 考查动词词义辨析。句意：每天，爸爸都用他可靠的路线图给我们引路。A. guided引导（某人至某 地）；B. encouraged鼓励；C. comforted安慰；D. attracted吸引。根据空后的“with his trusty road map” 可知，爸爸用地图给大家引路。故选A。 【44题详解】 考查名词词义辨析。句意：妈妈，我们家的核心，分享了关于即将到的地点的民间故事并画画。A. events事件；B. stations火车站；C. locations地点；D. shows节目。根据空前的“the upcoming”和下文 中的“We went through diverse ___45___from the thick forests to the vast deserts of the West.”可知，这 里是说他们即将到访的地点。故选C。 【45题详解】 考查名词词义辨析。句意：我们经历了从茂密的森林到西部广阔的沙漠的各种景观。A. cultures文 化；B. landscapes风景；C. groups组；D. countries国家。根据空后的“from the thick forests to the vast deserts of the West”可知，这里是说他们看到的各种各样的景观。故选B。 【46题详解】 考查动词词义辨析。句意：一天，在大峡谷徒步旅行时，我遇到了一条特别崎岖的小路。A. imagined 想象；B. constructed建造；C. smoothed使平滑；D. encountered遇到。根据下文中的“not knowing how to proceed”可知，作者遇到了一条特别崎岖的小路。故选D。 【47题详解】 考查动词词义辨析。句意：我吓坏了，僵住了，不知道该怎么办。A. froze（因害怕等）不动；B. flew 飞行；C. fell落下；D. forgot忘记。根据句中的“Frightened”可知，作者吓得僵住了。故选A。 【48题详解】 考查动词短语辨析。句意：就在那时我父母介入了。A. reached down把……拿下来；B. stood aside 站到一边；C. stepped in介入；D. turned back使返回。根据下文中的“As Dad showed me footholds, Mom coached me with calming ___49___and reminded me of the breathtaking views that lay ahead.”可 知，父母过来帮助作者，所以是介入了作者所处的困境。故选C。 【49题详解】 考查名词词义辨析。句意：当爸爸给我看立足点时，妈妈用平静的话语指导我，并提醒我前方的壮 丽景色。A. words话语；B. worries担心；C. noises噪音；D. thoughts想法。根据句中的“coached me” 可知，妈妈用平静的话语指导作者。故选A。 【50题详解】 考查动词词义辨析。句意：然后，当我的双脚再次站稳脚跟时，我恢复了信心。A. lost失去；B. maintained维持；C. demonstrated证明；D. restored恢复。根据上文中的“Frightened, I ___47___, not knowing how to proceed.”和下文中的“I finally overcame my fear”可知，作者一开始看到这条崎岖小 路时吓呆住了，后来在父母的帮助下终于克服了自己的害怕，由此可知，作者重新恢复的信心。故 选D 【51题详解】 考查动词词义辨析。句意参考上题。A. left离开；B. broke弄坏；C. found找到；D. dug挖。根据上 文中的“Dad showed me footholds”和空后的“solid ground again”可知，作者在父母的指导下找到了立 足点，双脚找到了结实的地面站稳了。故选C。 【52题详解】 考查形容词词义辨析。句意：当我终于克服恐惧时，我觉得我们作为一家人变得更亲密了。A. nicer 更好的；B. tougher更艰苦的；C. braver更勇敢的；D. closer更亲近的。根据下文中的“the family bonds formed”和空后的“as a family”可知，作者一家人变得更加亲密了。故选D 【53题详解】 考查副词词义辨析。句意：从那时起，每天晚上，我们都会聚集在篝火旁，进行我们亲切地称之为 “家庭回忆时间”的活动。A. originally原来，起初；B. affectionately亲切地；C. frequently频繁地；D. strictly严格地。根据空后的“called ‘Family Reflection Time’”并结合语境可知，他们将每晚进行的这 个活动称为“家庭回忆时间”，由此可知，他们很喜欢这个活动，很亲切地给它取名字。故选B。 【54题详解】 考查名词词义辨析。句意：在这些活动中，我们会分享一天的经历带来的欢笑、泪水和见解。A. jokes 玩笑；B. conflicts冲突；C. tears泪水；D. profits利润。根据空前的“laughs”可知，这里指一天经历的 欢乐和泪水。故选C。 【55题详解】 考查名词词义辨析。句意：这次旅行教会了我，旅行的真正意义不仅仅是到达目的地，而是在旅途 中发生的个人成长，以及在共同面对挑战时形成的家庭纽带。A. challenges挑战；B. defeats失败； C. opposition反对；D. uncertainty犹豫。根据空前的“facing”并结合上文作者面临崎岖小路时父母给 予帮助可知，这里是说一家人一起面对挑战。故选A。 语法填空 56. 考查时态。句意：世界上90%的烟花是在中国生产的。最大的进口国是美国，2021年的进口额 超过6.5亿美元。根据句中的“in 2021”可知，这里表示过去发生的事情，应用一般过去时，空格处 是定语从句的谓语动词，which指代先行词“the US”，与ship之间是主动关系，用过去式即可。故填 shipped。 57. 考查冠词。句意：烟花发明的细节已经被历史所遗忘，但民间故事试图填补这一空白。根据空 后的“folk tale”可知，这里表示泛指，且folk的发音以辅音音素开头，所以应用不定冠词a。故填a。 58. 考查非谓语动词。句意：据说，大约1400年前，一位名叫李畋的道士通过将火药装进竹筒中来 吓跑邪灵，从而制造了烟花。这里表示的是目的，所以应用不定式作目的状语。故填to scare。 59. 考查表语从句。句意：火药和化学化合物的爆炸性混合物使烟花闪烁出美丽的颜色和有趣的形 状。空处引导表语从句，且在从句中作主语，指物，所以应用what引导。故填what。 60. 考查名词的数。句意：人们最喜欢的作品包括“彗星”，其特点是有长长的火星痕迹；“牡丹”， 一个像花朵一样的爆炸；和“频闪”，产生闪烁效果。空处在句中作主语，favorite意为“特别喜爱的 人（或事物）”时为可数名词.根据空后的谓语include可知，这里应用名词复数。故填favorites。 61. 考查非谓语动词。句意：它重达1268公斤，升到空中一公里多后爆炸，使夜空变成红色。本句 的谓语是rose，所以空处应用非谓语动词。逻辑主语it和weigh之间是主谓关系，所以应用现在分词 作状语。故填Weighing。 62. 考查介词。句意：几个世纪以来，我们不得不手动点燃烟花，但自20世纪80年代以来，还有另 一种选择：计算机控制的打火机，它使显示器上的音乐时间更准确、更安全。by hand意为“用手工” ，为固定搭配。故填by。 63. 考查时态。句意参考上题。空前有含since的时间状语，主句用现在完成时。故填has been。 64. 考查副词。句意参考上题。空处修饰timed，应用副词precisely，意为“精确地”。故填precisely。 65. 考查非谓语动词。句意：最近采用的一种更环保的替代方案是使用无人机追踪天空中的闪光图 案。本句的谓语是is，所以空处应用非谓语动词。逻辑主语alternative和adopt之间是动宾关系，且 recently表明动作已经发生，所以应用过去分词，作后置定语。故填adopted。 写作 应用文 【写作提示】 本写作任务需要包含两个要点：首先明确自己的观点，比如表情符号有助于在线沟通：然后说明理 由，可以提到表情符号能够传达难以言表的情感，使我们的沟通更有共鸣，还可以谈论表情符号是 一种跨越文化障碍的通用语言。结尾处重申观点——合理使用表情符号可以显著提高在线沟通的质 量。 One possible version: Emojis have become an integral part of online communication and I firmly believe they can greatly enhance our interactions.

She suggested they prepare a short performance for the campfire night on the last day of the trip. The girls exchanged uncertain looks. But they agreed when they saw the glimmer of hope in Freya’s eyes, realizing that this might be the chance they had been waiting for to rebuild the bridge they had lost. Over the next few days, they worked together, choosing a piece that held deep meaning for both of them. As they practiced, old memories resurfaced, and they began to open their hearts, laughing and supporting each other just as they used to. On the last day of the trip, Judith and Melanie took the stage for a shared performance. Melanie, though still nervous, drew strength from Judith’s unwavering support and the lessons learned from Freya. The lines flowed naturally and their movements were in perfect harmony, as if they were dancing to the rhythm of their shared dream. Together, they delivered a heartfelt and moving performance, receiving thunderous applause. They not only overcame their individual fears and setbacks, but also rediscovered the power of their bond. From that day forward, they stood side by side, supporting and encouraging each other, not just onstage but in every aspect of their lives. 录音原文 Text 1 M: Hold your horses! The dance party doesn’t start until next weekend. W: Who told you that I was picking out clothes for that party? My boyfriend is coming back from his three-week business trip today. M: No wonder. Text 2 W: Can you sign your name here for me? I love this book and I’ve learnt a lot from it. M: Really? That’s my honor. I’m done. Oh, I have to leave now. The reporters are waiting for me over there. Text 3 W: I’m glad that I’ve passed all the tests. M: Don’t count your chickens before they hatch. We still need to finish an essay and a project. It is said that the exam results account for 50% of our final grade, and the essay 30%. The other 20% depends on the project. Text 4 M: Look, our school issued a notice about the holiday. W: What does it say? M: Well, during the vacation, the library and the gym will be closed, and only the dining hall will still be open. Text 5 W: Richard, listen. I heard some footsteps upstairs. M: Don’t worry. Maybe our neighbors have come back from their trip. W: That’s impossible. They told me they wouldn’t be back from Hawaii until next month. Text 6 W: Jerry, you shouldn’t hit your sister on her back like that. She’s only 2 years old. M: She started it. And she threw my toy gun into the trash can. W: OK I’m sorry. I didn't see that. M: I’m sorry, too. I was too angry just now W: It’s okay. I won’t punish either of you. Hey, do you remember you used my lips tick to draw pictures on the wall when you were little? It takes time for you to grow up and become a polite boy. M: You’re right, Mom. I won’t do that to little Niki anymore. W: That’s my boy. Text 7 M: OK, everyone. Listen up. Your coach Ms. Brown quit last week because she wanted to move from Houston to Philadelphia. We’ve got a new coach for you. W: Sorry to interrupt, Barry, but why is everything so sudden? M: That’s all I got from Ms. Brown. If you want to know more, you can call her yourself. W: Alright. Please introduce the new coach to us. M: The new coach is Ben Evans from Chicago. He has more than 10 years of teaching experience in yoga. He worked as a private trainer for a famous star before. W: Really? That’s cool. I can’t wait to take his classes. Text 8 M: Lily, are you free at the moment? I need you to send a notice for me. W: What kind of notice? Is there a meeting this afternoon? M: No. Our company holds a fire practice every six months. W: Okay. What time does the practice start? M: Usually, it starts at 2: 00 p.m. But this year we decided to move it forward to 9:00a.m. W: Okay. There’s only 45 minutes left. M: Yeah. And to avoid accidents, we decided to do it department by department. The marketing department will go first, then the e-commerce department, and finally the customer service department. W: Copy that. But what about our personnel department? M: They’re only two of us, so we’ll do it with the customer service department. W: OK. I’m going to draft the notice right now. Text 9 M: Joyce, our dinner is all served. Let’s start. W: Okay, Oliver. My mouth has been watering. Which dish should we try first? M: Fish. I highly recommend the fish. It has no fish bones. How is it? W: Yummy. But in my country, we don’t cook fish this way, with sweet and sour flavor. We eat sashimi, which consists of raw fish, served with sauce. M: I know. I once tried it, but I couldn’t swallow it. To be polite, I kept the food in my mouth. W: That’s funny. Anyway, I rate the fish 8.5 out of 10. M: Great. Let’s try the duck. It’s one of the most famous dishes in Beijing. W: Peking duck. I’ve heard about it. Many of my friends who have been to China love this dish. Hmm, I think it’s a little bit oily for me. I seldom eat fat. So, I’d rate this dish 7 out of 10. M: OK. But when you go home this summer break, you can bring some back for your friends. W: Good idea. And I’ll tell them that my Chinese classmate recommended it to me. Oh, what’s this dish? M: Braised pork ball in brown sauce. W: It looks delicious. Wow, I like it. I’ll give it 10 out of 10, honestly. I’d like to take a photo of the meat balls. I’m going to share the photo on my WeChat Moments tonight. Text 10 M: On April 22nd, people around the world celebrate Earth Day. We developed a theme: Who is your Earth hero? We also sent some of our reporters to do interviews, and here are some answers. Adalena, 9, New Jersey The people I admire most are two sisters, Ella and Caitlin McEwan. They wanted no plastic in children’s meals. They appealed to protest some fast food restaurants giving away plastic toys in children’s meals. They had learned that plastic is harmful to animals and the environment. And they don’t like that the plastic is getting into the environment. Ananya, 11, New Jersey I admire Wangari Maathai most. She got approximately 51 million trees planted in Kenya and its neighboring countries. Maathai is the first African woman to win the Nobel Peace Prize. She’s an inspiration for me because of her many achievements. Rose, 8, New Jersey My dad told me about a brother and sister who started a company called Fair Harbor. It makes all kinds of bathing suits. But what’s really special about it is that it uses recycled plastic bottles from the ocean to make the fabric. It is so cool that Fair Harbor can take plastic out of the ocean and turn it into something new and useful.
