The Spring Festival incorporates a comprehensive range of intangible cultural heritages at various levels. It is a festival filled with folk tales and the traditions based on them. The fireworks and the red decorations in front of many homes and businesses were originally intended to scare away the beast called nian (year) , a mythical beast thought to have preyed on people and livestock at the turn of the year.

Under experimental status, the first flying electric car has officially been cleared for takeoff.
This week, Alef Aeronautics revealed its flying car “Model A” was granted legal permission from the Federal Aviation Administration to test run the vehicle on the road and in the sky - a move needed before it can be released to the public.
Alef is the first company to receive a Special Airworthiness Certification from the FAA, the company said in a news release. The certification limits the locations and purpose for which the vehicle is allowed to fly.
The vehicle will also need to meet National Highway and Traffic Safety Administration safety standards before taking flight
But the company’s CEO Jim Dukhovny says the company is “hopeful” that the certification “will be our next step. ” “The historical significance of this cannot be overstated. While there have been pioneers like Terrafugia, Paul Moller, and Henry Ford, this is the first time a vehicle, in the traditional sense (parks and drives like a car, functions like a car, looks like a car) , has received permission to fly. It’s also important that Alef is the first electric car which received permission to fly. And, last but not least, the ability for vertical (垂直的) takeoff is central to most people’s conception of a ‘flying car’.
The flying car is now available for preorder, the Santa Clara, California-based company posted on its website. Carrying one or two passengers, the vehicle will sell for about $300, 000.
The “Model A” is 100% electric, drivable on public roads and has vertical takeoff and landing capabilities, the company wrote in its release.
The car will be a Low Speed Vehicle, meaning it won’t go faster than about 25 miles per hour on a paved surface. If a driver needs a faster route, they will be able to use the vehicle’s flight capabilities, according to Alef.
As of Friday presales were open, with interested customers able to pay a $150 deposit to get on the waiting list, or $1, 500 for a priority spot on the list’s queue.
The company, founded in 2015, has been test driving and flying the car’s prototype (原型) since 2019.
The version customers could receive has a driving range of 200 miles and a flight range of 110 miles.
8. According to the article, what is the current status of the first flying electric car?
A. It has met all safety standards.
B. It has been released to the public.
C. It is waiting for official permission from the FAA.
D. It is in a state of being tested as an experiment.
9. What can we learn about the “Model A” flying car from the passage?
A. It can carry up to three passengers.
B. It has been available for preorder since 2015.
C. It is only allowed to fly in certain locations and for specific purposes.
D. It doesn’t need a prototype for further development as it’s already perfect.
10. What is the purpose of the vehicle’s flight capabilities?
A. To offer a unique and thrilling experience to passengers.
B. To enable drivers to avoid traffic and reach their destinations faster.
C. To allow the vehicle to access remote or inaccessible areas.
D. To offer a unique and fun experience for the occupants.
11. In which column can you find the passage?
A. Technology B. Lifestyle
C. Entertainment D. Sports
D
Scientists have been studying spiderwebs and have created music from their vibrations (震动) .
From communication to construction, spiderwebs may offer a huge amount of information, said Markus Buehler, professor at MIT.
MIT shared an excerpt of the music on YouTube. In it, you can hear just how creepy the melody sounds. It, honestly, gives even more darkness to the creatures that live in the corner of the room.
But the melody isn’t just here to sound creepy. The researchers say that it will also help them better understand the architecture of the spider’s web. The music made from the spider webs could also help us learn the vibrational language of spiders.
Actually, spiders don’t really see that well, despite having multiple eyes. So, they rely on the vibrations of their webs to determine where something is. “Spiders use vibrations as a way to connect with the environment and with other spiders, ” Buehler said.
Professor Buehler and his team of researchers created 3D models of spider webs when the spiders were doing different things such as construction, repair, hunting and feeding. They then listened for patterns in the spider signals and recreated the sounds using computers. He hopes his team’s work could enable humans to understand the language of a spider and one day communicate with them.
There are more than 47, 000 species of spiders, and all spin silk webs to provide housing and catch food. Scientists say the silk from a spiderweb is five times stronger than steel. A better understanding of how these webs work has been difficult in the past, but the hope is that further study of spider webs will uncover more about these creatures.
The living structure of a spiderweb could lead to innovations in construction, and repair, Professor Buehler said. “We can imagine creating a synthetic system based on what the spider does in sensing the web, and repairing the web,” he said.
12. How do viewers feel about the melody posted online?
A Frightened. B. Delighted.
C. Relaxed. D. Calm.
13. According to the passage, what is the function of the vibrations of the spider’s web?
A. To entertain themselves. B. To attract other spiders.
C. To communicate with the surroundings. D. To protect themselves from attack.
14. How do the researchers study the spiderweb?
A. By doing a survey. B. By observing closely.
C. By setting up a virtual model. D. By comparing data collected.
15. What is the last paragraph mainly about?
A. The structure of the spider web.
B. Spiders’ skills of repairing the spider web.
C. The construction process of the spider web.
D. The significance of studying spider web structure.

47. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Tom Young was on his way home from a hard day’s work at a construction site, carrying his worn-out hammer which had accompanied him through thick and thin. With each step, his mind was filled with worry as he racked his brain to find money for his seriously ill son, Andrew, who was in great need of heart surgery.
Tom had run out of choices and time. Desperation was beginning to set in, but he refused to let his son suffer helplessly. As he walked, the weight of his troubles pressed heavily on his shoulders. So desperate was he that he even heard a hum in his ears. The next moment the hum was entirely covered by a loud sound.
He turned in shock, and what he saw took his breath away. An expensive luxury car was wrapped around a big tree on the other side of the street, with its front twisted and flames starting to spring up from the car.
Without a second thought, he ran to the flaming car. He noticed that although the young lady in the driver’s seat did not seem to have been severely injured - apparently because of the open airbag - she was unconscious. Tom saw that the flames began to grow increasingly intense. He realized that he had to get the girl out of the car immediately because there was a high risk of the vehicle exploding at any time.
He grabbed the handle and pulled it, but the door was bent and did not open. He used all his strength and tried again, but in vain. It was a sports car, so it had only two doors, and the other one was blocked by the tree. He decided that he had to break the glass to take her out as quickly as possible. He struck it forcefully with his fist but realized that there was no way he could break the thick glass with bare hands, and the flames were getting bigger.
注意:
1.续写词数应为150左右;
2.请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。
Time was running out, and his mind raced madly.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
The girl was sad to know Tom’s trouble from the local news.

Under experimental status, the first flying electric car has officially been cleared for takeoff.
This week, Alef Aeronautics revealed its flying car “Model A” was granted legal permission from the Federal Aviation Administration to test run the vehicle on the road and in the sky - a move needed before it can be released to the public.
Alef is the first company to receive a Special Airworthiness Certification from the FAA, the company said in a news release. The certification limits the locations and purpose for which the vehicle is allowed to fly.
The vehicle will also need to meet National Highway and Traffic Safety Administration safety standards before taking flight.
But the company’s CEO Jim Dukhovny says the company is “hopeful” that the certification “will be our next step. ” “The historical significance of this cannot be overstated. While there have been pioneers like Terrafugia, Paul Moller, and Henry Ford, this is the first time a vehicle, in the traditional sense (parks and drives like a car, functions like a car, looks like a car) , has received permission to fly. It’s also important that Alef is the first electric car which received permission to fly. And, last but not least, the ability for vertical (垂直的) takeoff is central to most people’s conception of a ‘flying car’.
The flying car is now available for preorder, the Santa Clara, California-based company posted on its website. Carrying one or two passengers, the vehicle will sell for about $300, 000.
The “Model A” is 100% electric, drivable on public roads and has vertical takeoff and landing capabilities, the company wrote in its release.
The car will be a Low Speed Vehicle, meaning it won’t go faster than about 25 miles per hour on a paved surface. If a driver needs a faster route, they will be able to use the vehicle’s flight capabilities, according to Alef.
As of Friday, presales were open, with interested customers able to pay a $150 deposit to get on the waiting list, or $1, 500 for a priority spot on the list’s queue.
The company, founded in 2015, has been test driving and flying the car’s prototype (原型) since 2019.
The version customers could receive has a driving range of 200 miles and a flight range of 110 miles.
8. According to the article what is the current status of the first flying electric car?
A. It has met all safety standards.
B. It has been released to the public.
C. It is waiting for official permission from the FAA.
D. It is in a state of being tested as an experiment.
9. What can we learn about the “Model A” flying car from the passage?
A. It can carry up to three passengers.
B. It has been available for preorder since 2015.
C. It is only allowed to fly in certain locations and for specific purposes.
D. It doesn’t need a prototype for further development as it’s already perfect.
10. What is the purpose of the vehicle’s flight capabilities?
A. To offer a unique and thrilling experience to passengers.
B. To enable drivers to avoid traffic and reach their destinations faster.
C. To allow the vehicle to access remote or inaccessible areas.
D. To offer a unique and fun experience for the occupants.

Scientists have been studying spiderwebs and have created music from their vibrations (震动) .
From communication to construction, spiderwebs may offer a huge amount of information, said Markus Buehler, professor at MIT.
MIT shared an excerpt of the music on YouTube. In it, you can hear just how creepy the melody sounds. It, honestly, gives even more darkness to the creatures that live in the corner of the room.
But the melody isn’t just here to sound creepy. The researchers say that it will also help them better understand the architecture of the spider’s web. The music made from the spider webs could also help us learn the vibrational language of spiders.
Actually, spiders don’t really see that well, despite having multiple eyes. So, they rely on the vibrations of their webs to determine where something is. “Spiders use vibrations as a way to connect with the environment and with other spiders, ” Buehler said.
Professor Buehler and his team of researchers created 3D models of spider webs when the spiders were doing different things such as construction, repair, hunting and feeding. They then listened for patterns in the spider signals and recreated the sounds using computers. He hopes his team’s work could enable humans to understand the language of a spider and one day communicate with them.
There are more than 47, 000 species of spiders, and all spin silk webs to provide housing and catch food. Scientists say the silk from a spiderweb is five times stronger than steel. A better understanding of how these webs work has been difficult in the past, but the hope is that further study of spider webs will uncover more about these creatures.
The living structure of a spiderweb could lead to innovations in construction, and repair, Professor Buehler said. “We can imagine creating a synthetic system based on what the spider does in sensing the web, and repairing the web,” he said.
12. How do viewers feel about the melody posted online?
A. Frightened. B. Delighted.
C. Relaxed. D. Calm.
13. According to the passage, what is the function of the vibrations of the spider’s web?
A. To entertain themselves. B. To attract other spiders.
C. To communicate with the surroundings. D. To protect themselves from attack.
14. How do the researchers study the spiderweb?
A. By doing a survey. B. By observing closely.
C. By setting up a virtual model. D. By comparing data collected.
15. What is the last paragraph mainly about?
A. The structure of the spider web.
B. Spiders’ skills of repairing the spider web.
C. The construction process of the spider web.
D. The significance of studying spider web structure.
【答案】12. A 13. C 14. C 15. D

【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了中国东部安徽省一条被称为“六尺巷”的小巷的历史由来,以及它所蕴含的宽容、道德和和谐的价值。
36题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:在中国东部的安徽省,一条两米宽、称作六尺巷的小巷分隔着两面灰墙。“(call) Liuchi Alley”作后置定语,call(称作) 是非谓语动词,与其逻辑主语alley之间是被动关系,用过去分词形式表被动。故填called。
【37题详解】
考查介词。句意:尽管在外观上并不起眼,但这条小巷却有着重要的故事。in appearance为固定搭配,意为“在外观上”,介词in意为“在……方面”。故填in。
【38题详解】
考查时态语态和主谓一致。句意:在节假日,成千上万的游客被它的历史和它所传授的经验教训所吸引。draw(吸引)是谓语动词,与主语thousands of visitors之间是被动关系,结合语境,这里描述的是一般情况,应用一般现在时的被动语态,主语是复数名词,谓语动词用复数形式。故填are drawn。
【39题详解】
考查名词。句意:在康熙皇帝(1654 - 1722)的朝廷中,两家都有地位很高的成员,然而,关于他们两处房产之间的边界线以及哪家有权在上面建房的争论出现了。提示词在句中作主语,用名词argument,意为“争论,争吵”,既可用作可数名词也可用作不可数名词,这里既可以表示一场争论,用单数,也可以表示多场争论,用复数。故填arguments/argument。
【40题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:在未能达成妥协之后,张家向张英求助,张英是张家的一位家庭成员,也是朝廷中的一位高官。after是介词,后接动名词failing作宾语。故填failing。
【41题详解】
考查代词。句意:令他们惊讶的是,张英并没有提供他们所需的支持。“to one’s surprise”是固定短语,意为“令某人惊讶的是”,这里指令张家的人惊讶,用形容词性物主代词their作定语。故填their。
【42题详解】
考查强调句。句意:与邻居的亲密关系才是重要的。分析句子可知,句中使用了强调句型,强调句结构为“It + is/was + 被强调部分 + that/who + 句子其它部分”,在强调句中,当被强调部分是人时,可以使用who代替that;本句中强调的是原句主语“the close relationship with their neighbors”,句子其它部分只能由that引出。故填that。
【43题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:从那以后,这条小巷就代表了宽容、道德与和谐,提供了一个解决冲突的经验教训。“(offer) a lesson in resolving conflicts”作伴随状语,offer(提供)是非谓语动词,与其逻辑主语The alley之间是主动关系,用现在分词表主动。故填offering。
【44题详解】
考查形容词。句意:尽管原来的墙壁已经消失,但复制品如今依然矗立着,吸引着前来反思其蕴含意义的游客。提示词修饰名词walls,用形容词original作定语,意为“原来的,最初的”。故填original。
【45题详解】
考查介词。句意:对于普通人来说,它代表着合作的价值,而官员们则将其视为治理和公共服务方面的一个永恒的经验教训。“regard...as...”是固定短语,意为“把……视为……”。故填as。

【答案】Dear Jack,
How is everything going? I’m delighted to hear about your interest in traditional Chinese art. One art form that I really like is traditional Chinese tea art.
Tea art, deeply rooted in Chinese culture, emphasizes being fully present. During a tea ceremony, you pay attention to every detail, from the smell of the tea to the design of the tea cups. It’s a way to escape the hustle and bustle of daily life.
My connection to tea art is both personal and cultural. I find tea art to be incredibly calming and ideal for relieving stress and appreciating Chinese traditions.
I believe you’d enjoy this art form as well.
Yours,
Li Hua

47. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Tom Young was on his way home from a hard day’s work at a construction site, carrying his worn-out hammer which had accompanied him through thick and thin. With each step, his mind was filled with worry as he racked his brain to find money for his seriously ill son, Andrew, who was in great need of heart surgery.
Tom had run out of choices and time. Desperation was beginning to set in, but he refused to let his son suffer helplessly. As he walked, the weight of his troubles pressed heavily on his shoulders. So desperate was he that he even heard a hum in his ears. The next moment the hum was entirely covered by a loud sound.
He turned in shock, and what he saw took his breath away. An expensive luxury car was wrapped around a big tree on the other side of the street, with its front twisted and flames starting to spring up from the car.
Without a second thought, he ran to the flaming car. He noticed that although the young lady in the driver’s seat did not seem to have been severely injured - apparently because of the open airbag - she was unconscious. Tom saw that the flames began to grow increasingly intense. He realized that he had to get the girl out of the car immediately because there was a high risk of the vehicle exploding at any time.
He grabbed the handle and pulled it, but the door was bent and did not open. He used all his strength and tried again, but in vain. It was a sports car, so it had only two doors, and the other one was blocked by the tree. He decided that he had to break the glass to take her out as quickly as possible. He struck it forcefully with his fist but realized that there was no way he could break the thick glass with bare hands, and the flames were getting bigger.
注意:
1.续写词数应为150左右;
2.请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。
Time was running out, and his mind raced madly.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
The girl was sad to know Tom’s trouble from the local news.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】One possible version:
Time was running out, and his mind raced madly. In a moment of clarity, Tom remembered the worn-out hammer in his hand. It had been a reliable companion through countless days of labor, and now it was his only hope. With a determined swing, he smashed the hammer against the window, shattering the glass with a loud crash. Carefully, he reached into the vehicle, avoiding the jagged edges, and unbuckled the unconscious young lady. With all his strength, he pulled her out, dragging her a safe distance from the car just as the flames roared fiercely, engulfing the vehicle in a fiery blaze. Soon, Tom’s heroic deed went viral.
The girl was sad to know Tom’s trouble from the local news. She learned about his struggle to find money for his son’s heart surgery and felt a deep sense of empathy for his situation. Remembering how he had risked his life to save her, she decided to take action. With her family’s connections and resources, she organized a fundraising campaign to help cover the medical expenses for Andrew’s surgery. As word spread about Tom’s story, the community rallied together, contributing whatever they could. Grateful for the support, Tom felt a renewed sense of hope. The girl, now a friend, visited him in the hospital, bringing not just financial help but also encouragement. Their bond grew stronger, united by the challenges they faced and the lives they had touched.
【解析】
【导语】文章以人物为线索展开,讲述了Tom Young在下班回家的路上,偶遇一辆豪华轿车撞上大树并起火。他毫不犹豫地前往救援,发现车内的女司机虽然因安全气囊打开而未受重伤,但已失去意识。面对车门变形无法打开和火焰逐渐蔓延的紧急情况,Tom决定砸碎车窗玻璃救出女司机,但发现仅凭双手无法打破厚实的玻璃。
【详解】1.段落续写
①由第一段首句内容“时间紧迫,Tom的思绪疯狂地转动。”可知,第一段可描写Tom冒着生命危险救出女孩的过程。
②由第二段首句内容“那位女孩从当地新闻中得知了Tom的困境,感到十分难过。”可知,第二段可描写那位女孩借助家族的关系和资源筹集资金帮助Tom,社区也提供了相应的帮助以及Tom救人这件事带来的积极影响。
