A. the; a B. an; the C. a; the 【答案】A 【解析】 【详解】句意：——你去过北京吗？——是的，我去过。它是我国的首都，有着悠久的历史。 考查冠词辨析。a一，泛指，用于辅音音素开头的单词前；an泛指，用于元音音素开头的单词前；the特指。第一空需要填定冠词“the”，因为“capital”在此表示特指“首都”；第二空需要不定冠词“a”，“a long history”泛指“一段悠久的历史”。故选A。 2. —You will never understand your mum’s love ________ you grow up. —Yes, I know for me she always wants the best. A. if B. until C. since 【答案】B 【解析】 【详解】句意：——你永远也不会理解你妈妈的爱，直到你长大。——是的，我知道她总是想给我最好的。 考查从属连词辨析。if如果；until直到；since自从。根据“You will never understand”和“you grow up”可知，此处应用until引导时间状语从句，not/never…until “直到……才……”，符合语境。故选B。 3. —Will you go to Amy’s birthday party next Friday? —If I ________, I will go there on time. A. am invited B. was invited C. will be invited 【答案】A 【解析】 【详解】句意：——下星期五你去参加艾米的生日聚会吗？——如果我被邀请的话，我会准时去那里的。 考查被动语态。主语是I，与动词invite之间是被动关系，故用被动语态be done；此处是if引导的条件状语从句，主句是一般将来时，从句时态用一般现在时，主语是I，be动词用am，invite的过去分词是invited。故选A。 4. —Many people often play on mobile phones instead of reading. —That’s too bad. Everyone ________ be a book lover. Reading is more enjoyable. A. can’t B. must C. should 【答案】C 【解析】 【详解】句意：——许多人经常玩手机而不是读书。——那太糟糕了。每个人都应该成为一个读书爱好者。阅读更令人愉快。 考查情态动词。can’t不可以；must必须；should应该。根据“be a book lover”可知句子表达建议，每个人都应该成为一个读书爱好者。故选C。 5. — Is everyone in the classroom today? — No, two students are ________ because they’re ill at home. A. free B. absent C. busy 【答案】B 【解析】 【详解】句意：——今天大家都到齐了吗？——没有。两个学生缺席了，因为他们生病在家。 考查形容词辨析。free空闲的；absent缺席的；busy忙的。根据“two students are ... because they’re ill at home.”可知，两名同学因为生病在家而缺席了，absent符合句意。故选B。 6. — How do you learn English? —I study English by reading ________ and listening to tapes every day. A. loudly B. loud C. aloud 【答案】C 【解析】 【详解】句意：——你是怎么学英语的？——我每天通过大声朗读和听磁带来学习英语。 考查副词辨析。loudly‌作为副词，意思是“大声地”、“响亮地”，通常放在动词前后，强调声音的强度，有时含有“喧闹”或“嘈杂”的意味；‌loud作为副词时，意思是“响亮地”、“大声地”，强调声音的音量大、传播距离远；‌aloud‌作为副词，意思是“大声地”或“出声地”。当与read、think等动词连用时，表示“出声地”，即把话说出来，当与call、shout、cry等动词连用时，表示“大声地”。本题用副词aloud‌修饰动词read。故选C。 7. —Dad, can I play basketball outside? —Sorry, Linda. You have to get your clothes ________ first. A. wash B. washed C. washing 【答案】B 【解析】 【详解】句意：——爸爸，我可以在外面打篮球吗？——抱歉，琳达。你得先把你的衣服洗了。 考查过去分词作宾语补足语。根据“get your clothes”可知此处get为使役动词，表示“使，让”，your clothes与动词wash存在被动关系，因此此处应用过去分词作宾语补足语。故选B。 8. —Happy birthday, my dear grandma. —Thank you so much. This is the best gift ________ I have ever received.

A. including B. besides C. except 【答案】C 【解析】 【详解】句意：——为什么Mike今天看起来很伤心？——因为每个人都通过了考试，除了他。 考查介词辨析。including包括；besides除……之外（还）；except除……外，不包括。根据“Because everyone pass the exam...him.”可知，Mike没有通过考试，故应用except。故选C。 10. —________. I didn’t hear what you said. —Never mind. I think we’d better go home quickly. It’s going to rain. A. Pardon me B. Come on C. Take it easy 【答案】A 【解析】 【详解】句意：——能再说一遍吗？我没听清楚你说了什么。——没关系。我认为我们最好快点回家。要下雨了。 考查情景交际。Pardon me请再说一遍；Come on加油；Take it easy慢慢来。根据“I didn’t hear what you said.”可知，没听清楚，所以希望对方再说一遍。故选A。 第二节 完形填空（共15小题；A篇每小题2分，B篇每小题1分，满分20分） 阅读下面A、B两篇短文，掌握其大意，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中，选出可以填入相应空白处的最佳答案。 A There is an old Chinese saying, “If someone gives you a little drop of water, you should return a spring of water.” That means if someone helps you a bit, you should ____11____ it and thank them in return.

For two years this happened daily, with the woman bringing home only one and a half pots of water. Of course, the perfect pot was proud. But the poor cracked pot was ashamed of its own imperfection. One day the cracked pot spoke to the woman by the well, “I am ashamed of myself because this crack in my side causes water to leak out all the way back to your house.” The old woman smiled, “Did you notice that there are flowers on your side of the path, but not on the other pot’s side? That’s because I have always known about your crack, so I planted flower seeds on your side of the path. And every day while we walk back, you water them.” “For two years I have been able to pick these beautiful flowers to decorate the table. Without you being just the way you are, I would not have this beauty.” Each of us has our own cracks. But it’s these cracks that make our lives together so interesting and meaningful. 29.

But the poor cracked pot was ashamed of its own imperfection.”由提示词“But”可知，前后句是转折关系，前一句说完美的罐子很骄傲，则后一句是说破罐子的心情是与“骄傲”相反的词，就是“羞愧的”。故选C。 【31题详解】 细节理解题。通读全文，故事的进展为：文章第五段“That’s because I have always known about your crack, so I planted flower seeds on your side of the path. ”，老妇人知道罐子有裂缝，于是种植花种在前；接着是文章第三段“Of course, the perfect pot was proud. But the poor cracked pot was ashamed of its own imperfection. ”完美的罐子很骄傲，破罐子很羞愧；最后是文章第四段“One day the cracked pot spoke to the woman by the well”羞愧的破罐子与老妇人在井边进行了谈话，向老妇人表达了自己的羞愧。故选B。 【32题详解】 主旨大意题。文章最后一段是主题句，根据“Each of us has our own cracks. But it’s these cracks that make our lives together so interesting and meaningful.”可知，我们每个人都有自己的缺点，但正是这些缺点让我们的生活变得有意义，任何事情都有两面性。故选C。 C The subway train is running fast. A boy is reading a book carefully in his seat in the subway, while many other people are checking their phones. To encourage reading, a Chinese company started a book-sharing activity. They put over 10000 books around the underground, in taxis and on planes in Beijing. Since the activities started, it has earned the support of many people, even some popular celebrities (名人). The book-sharing activity, however, drew much more criticism (批评) than praise because some books were left untouched, or taken away by cleaners. People also complained (抱怨) that they couldn’t read the books—the underground was too crowded. ________ “I think most people may end up taking selfies (自拍) when they pick up the books and posting on WeChat Moments. After that they will just bring the books back home and put them on their bookshelves,” wrote one Weibo user. Some pointed out that some celebrities who supported the activity didn’t seem to be reading much. They just wanted to draw others’ attention. Isn’t it embarrassing that the activity is supported by celebrities who don’t read a lot? “The book-sharing activity is not at all a bad thing. Over the years, everybody has been busy with work. They don’t have time for reading,” said a famous Chinese writer. “However, it doesn’t mean we should do nothing to encourage reading.” 33. How does the writer introduce the topic in Paragraph1? A. By describing a scene. B. By explaining the reason. C. By answering a question. 34. Which of the following can be put in the ________? A. Someone thought most people like taking selfies and writing posts. B. Most people thought the activity could do little to encourage reading. C. Weibo users thought reading books is less important than taking selfies. 35. What can we learn from the words of the Chinese writer in the last paragraph? A. Working is more important than reading. B. We shouldn’t give up encouraging reading. C. The book-sharing activity causes traffic accidents. 36. What’s the main purpose of the passage? A. To show people the value of reading. B. To encourage people to stick to reading. C To ask people to return the books on time. 【答案】33. A 34. B 35. B 36. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了为了鼓励阅读，一家中国公司发起了图书共享活动，虽然效果不好，但是我们不应该放弃鼓励阅读。 【33题详解】 细节理解题。根据“A boy is reading a book carefully in his seat in the subway, while many other people are checking their phones.”可知，作者通过描述“一个男孩在地铁里仔细看书，许多人在玩手机”的场景引入话题，故选A。 【34题详解】 推理判断题。根据“I think most people may end up taking selfies (自拍) when they pick up the books and posting on WeChat Moments. After that, they will just bring the books back home and put them on their bookshelves,”可知，后文提到了多数人可能会在拿起书并在微信朋友圈上晒出自己的照片，之后，他们就会把书带回家，放在书架上，因此推测，活动对鼓励阅读作用不大，故选B。 【35题详解】 细节理解题。根据作家说的“However, it doesn’t mean we should do nothing to encourage reading.”可知，我们不应放弃鼓励阅读，故选B。 【36题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其根据作家说的“The book-sharing activity is not at all a bad thing. Over the years, everybody has been busy with work. They don’t have time for reading,”以及“However, it doesn’t mean we should do nothing to encourage reading.”可知，文章旨在鼓励人们坚持阅读，故选B。 D Have you heard of a computer program that can understand what you see and answer you in a human-like way? Well, ChatGPT, one of the most powerful AIs of its kind, has excited the world. People have tested how ChatGPT works. A teacher asked ChatGPT to write answers to exam questions. It could almost get perfect grades. A mom took a picture of the food in her kitchen and sent it into ChatGPT. It was able to tell her what dishes she could make and how to cook them. A father asked ChatGPT to think up ideas of a birthday party for his son. It could give a plan combining (结合) the kids’ two favorites, pandas and soccer. What’s more, when people ask ChatGPT questions, it can find mistakes. If you ask what happened when Columbus arrived in America in 2023, ChatGPT will tell you that Columbus got to America in the 1400s. Also, ChatGPT will not provide information on dark and bad things. ChatGPT might help in many ways, but there are still some worries. OpenAI said its users had better be careful about the information given by ChatGPT, because it’s trained to use information from the Internet, but some may not be right. Also, some think that people will use ChatGPT to copy others’ work and sell it as their own. It’s still too soon to see what kind of effect ChatGPT will have on our lives. Let’s hope that, if ChatGPT does become bigger and more popular, its effects are mostly good. 37. What does the underlined word “some” in Paragraph 4 refer to (指代)? A. People. B. The users. C. Information. 38. Which is most probably a conversation between you and ChatGPT? A. —What kind of plant is it in this picture? —Sorry, I’m not able to understand pictures. I can only understand words. B. —Find something as a gift for my cousin’s birthday. He likes dogs and basketball. —There is no such gift. C. —Is Li Bai, a writer from Japan, famous all over the world? —Yes. He is. But he is from China. 39. What is the structure (结构) of the text? A. B. C. 40. What can be the best title for this text? A. Say No to ChatGPT B. Get Success with ChatGPT C. ChatGPT Is Catching the World’s Eye 【答案】37. C 38. C 39. A 40. C 【解析】 【导语】本文讲述了ChatGPT这一强大的人工智能程序的功能、应用、优势以及存在的担忧。 【37题详解】 词句猜测题。根据“OpenAI said its users had better be careful about the information given by ChatGPT, because it’s trained to use information from the Internet, but some may not be right”可知“some”指代的应是前文提到的信息，故选C。 【38题详解】 推理判断题。根据“A mom took a picture of the food in her kitchen and sent it into ChatGPT. It was able to tell her what dishes she could make and how to cook them. A father asked ChatGPT to think up ideas of a birthday party for his son. It could give a plan combining (结合) the kids’ two favorites, pandas and soccer.”可知ChatGPT可以识别图片，可以想出一个结合孩子们喜好的礼物，因此A/B都不符合，故选C。 【39题详解】 篇章结构题。第一段引出主题；第二三段介绍ChatGPT的优势；第四段介绍对于ChatGPT的担忧；第五段总结。故选A。 【40题详解】 最佳标题题。根据“Well, ChatGPT, one of the most powerful AIs of its kind, has excited the world.”可知本文主要讲述了ChatGPT这一强大的人工智能程序正在引起大家的注意，故选C。 第二节 阅读填空（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有一项为多余选项。 Many successful people follow healthy rules.

B An old woman had two large pots. She carried the pole (扁担) with the pots across her neck. One of the pots had a crack (裂缝) in it while the other pot was perfect and always full of water. At the end of the long walk from the well to the house, the cracked pot arrived only half-full. For two years this happened daily, with the woman bringing home only one and a half pots of water. Of course, the perfect pot was proud. But the poor cracked pot was ashamed of its own imperfection. One day the cracked pot spoke to the woman by the well, “I am ashamed of myself because this crack in my side causes water to leak out all the way back to your house.” The old woman smiled, “Did you notice that there are flowers on your side of the path, but not on the other pot’s side? That’s because I have always known about your crack, so I planted flower seeds on your side of the path. And every day while we walk back, you water them.” “For two years I have been able to pick these beautiful flowers to decorate the table. Without you being just the way you are, I would not have this beauty.” Each of us has our own cracks. But it’s these cracks that make our lives together so interesting and meaningful. 29. How much water did the woman bring home every day? A. Two pots. B. One and a half pots. C. Half a pot. 30. What does the underlined word “ashamed” mean in Paragraph 3? A. Nervous. B. Worried. C.

A boy is reading a book carefully in his seat in the subway, while many other people are checking their phones. To encourage reading, a Chinese company started a book-sharing activity. They put over 10000 books around the underground, in taxis and on planes in Beijing. Since the activities started, it has earned the support of many people, even some popular celebrities (名人). The book-sharing activity, however, drew much more criticism (批评) than praise because some books were left untouched, or taken away by cleaners. People also complained (抱怨) that they couldn’t read the books—the underground was too crowded. ________ “I think most people may end up taking selfies (自拍) when they pick up the books and posting on WeChat Moments. After that, they will just bring the books back home and put them on their bookshelves,” wrote one Weibo user. Some pointed out that some celebrities who supported the activity didn’t seem to be reading much. They just wanted to draw others’ attention. Isn’t it embarrassing that the activity is supported by celebrities who don’t read a lot? “The book-sharing activity is not at all a bad thing. Over the years, everybody has been busy with work. They don’t have time for reading,” said a famous Chinese writer. “However, it doesn’t mean we should do nothing to encourage reading.” 33. How does the writer introduce the topic in Paragraph1? A. By describing a scene. B. By explaining the reason. C. By answering a question. 34. Which of the following can be put in the ________? A. Someone thought most people like taking selfies and writing posts. B. Most people thought the activity could do little to encourage reading. C. Weibo users thought reading books is less important than taking selfies. 35. What can we learn from the words of the Chinese writer in the last paragraph? A. Working is more important than reading. B. We shouldn’t give up encouraging reading. C. The book-sharing activity causes traffic accidents. 36. What’s the main purpose of the passage? A. To show people the value of reading. B. To encourage people to stick to reading. C. To ask people to return the books on time. D Have you heard of a computer program that can understand what you see and answer you in a human-like way? Well, ChatGPT, one of the most powerful AIs of its kind, has excited the world. People have tested how ChatGPT works. A teacher asked ChatGPT to write answers to exam questions. It could almost get perfect grades. A mom took a picture of the food in her kitchen and sent it into ChatGPT. It was able to tell her what dishes she could make and how to cook them. A father asked ChatGPT to think up ideas of a birthday party for his son. It could give a plan combining (结合) the kids’ two favorites, pandas and soccer. What’s more, when people ask ChatGPT questions, it can find mistakes. If you ask what happened when Columbus arrived in America in 2023, ChatGPT will tell you that Columbus got to America in the 1400s. Also, ChatGPT will not provide information on dark and bad things. ChatGPT might help in many ways, but there are still some worries. OpenAI said its users had better be careful about the information given by ChatGPT, because it’s trained to use information from the Internet, but some may not be right. Also, some think that people will use ChatGPT to copy others’ work and sell it as their own. It’s still too soon to see what kind of effect ChatGPT will have on our lives. Let’s hope that, if ChatGPT does become bigger and more popular, its effects are mostly good. 37. What does the underlined word “some” in Paragraph 4 refer to (指代)? A. People. B. The users. C. Information. 38. Which is most probably a conversation between you and ChatGPT? A. —What kind of plant is it in this picture? —Sorry, I’m not able to understand pictures. I can only understand words. B. —Find something as a gift for my cousin’s birthday. He likes dogs and basketball. —There is no such gift. C. —Is Li Bai, a writer from Japan, famous all over the world? —Yes. He is. But he is from China. 39. What is the structure (结构) of the text? A. B. C. 40. What can be the best title for this text? A. Say No to ChatGPT B. Get Success with ChatGPT C. ChatGPT Is Catching the World’s Eye 第二节 阅读填空（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有一项为多余选项。 Many successful people follow healthy rules. This helps them make the best use of their days.
