Here we’re naming some of our favourite cities for music. Nashville With the nickname “Music City”. Nashville makes our list of best music cities. You’re bound to hear live music anywhere, whether at your hotel bar, or at the historic Ryman Auditorium. Nashville is not only home to the Country Music Hall of Fame and the Johnny Cash Museum, but it’s still active in the recording studio scene. Vienna If you’re after classical music on your next vacation, be sure to head to Vienna. Once the capital of the Habsburg Empire, the city was the centre of all societal affairs which included music. The greatest classical composers — from Mozart to Haydn to Beethoven to Mahler — all lived and worked in Vienna at one point or another. New York New York has been described as a “melting pot (熔炉)” of cultures, and that applies to its music, too. The 20th century was particularly fruitful for New York’s music scene. During this time, it became the birthplace of hip-hop, disco, and salsa music, among other styles. The list truly goes on and on. New Orleans The city is filled with jazz, where you can listen to the great music every night. Of course, you can catch jazz at venues across town the-genre was born here, after all. If you’re a huge jazz fan, you might want to consider visiting during the annual New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival. 1. Which city is more attractive to visitors who want to know the classical musicians? A. Vienna. B. Nashville. C. New Orleans. D. New York. 2. What is special about New York as a music city? A. It is recognized as the birthplace and hot area of jazz. B. It is a meeting pointing for various styles of music. C. It enables people to enjoy the live shows inside and outside hotel bars. D. It holds musical festivals for hip-pop and disco fans each year. 3. Where is this text probably taken from? A. A textbook. B. A poster. C. A magazine. D. A diary. 【答案】1. A 2. B 3. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇应用文。主要介绍了四个世界各地负有盛名的音乐之城。 【1题详解】 细节理解题。根据Vienna部分中的“The greatest classical composers — from Mozart to Haydn to Beethoven to Mahler — all lived and worked in Vienna at one point or another. (最伟大的古典作曲家——从莫扎特到海顿，从贝多芬到马勒——都曾在维也纳生活和工作过。)”可知，许多伟大的古典音乐家曾在维也纳生活并工作，游客可通过游览该城市深入了解这些音乐家。故选A。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。根据New York部分中的“New York has been described as a “melting pot (熔炉)” of cultures, and that applies to its music, too. (纽约被描述为文化的“大熔炉”，这也适用于它的音乐。)”可知，纽约作为一个音乐城市，它是各种音乐风格的交汇点。故选B。 【3题详解】 推理判断题。根据首段“Music is an international language, spanning (跨越) cultures across the world, and, in fact, across time, Looking at today’s musical landscape, certain cities truly stand out for their music scenes. Here we’re naming some of our favourite cities for music. (音乐是一种国际语言，跨越了世界各地的文化，事实上，跨越了时间。纵观当今的音乐景观，有些城市确实因其音乐场景而脱颖而出。在这里，我们列出了一些我们最喜欢的音乐城市。)”以及通读全文可知，文章主要介绍世界各地负有盛名的音乐之城，如纳什维尔、维也纳、纽约、新奥尔良，所以推知这篇文章最有可能来源于杂志专栏。故选C。 B The first time my daughter, Maia, realized I was leaving on a trip without her, she was alarmed. Seeing photos of where I was going, she cried and asked why I was going to leave her behind. I tried to explain my work as a travel writer. But as my husband, Evan, pulled her off my leg so I could leave, I wondered if my solo trips would be worth the effort of going without her. A few days later, I returned home and Maia was happy to hear about my trip. She told me I could keep going on trips for work-but we’d compromise(妥协), she’d come with me. One year later, an invitation came to experience the Rocky Mountaineer on a parent-child journey, And as scary as it seemed to take a preschooler on a train, the trip sounded too good to pass up. Dressed in her most beautiful train-riding clothes, four-year-old Maia watched me take notes about the scenery as we chugged along the Fraser River in BC. Wanting to prove her worth as an assistant, she began interviewing the Australian couple sitting beside us. Unable to spell more than a few words, she drew their answers in crayon(蜡笔)。She ended up being such an easy travel companion and we found a special rhythm(节奏) on the road together. When she was six, we flew to the Riviera Maya in Mexico. I was impressed by how cheerfully fearless she was when we swam in cenotes(天然井). But it was on the flight home, when my little kid said it was okay that the airline didn’t seat us together, that I realized how much travel was shaping her. Research says that travel can expand a kid’s world, helping them become more adaptable while developing their creativity and imagination. Seeing those changes in Maia, I am really grateful for that compromise I made with her, 4. What can we learn about the author from the first two paragraphs? A. She enjoyed travelling alone. B. She gave up work for family. C. She travelled a lot with her kid. D. She went on trips for work. 5. What did the author think of the Rocky Mountaineer trip with Maia? A. Enjoyable. B. Annoying. C. Awkward. D. Tiring. 6 What influence did travel have on Maia? A. She grew braver and more independent. B. She became much closer to the writer. C. She made new friends and learned new skills. D. She became more outgoing and cheerful. 7. What is a suitable title for the text? A. The Challenges of Accompanying Kids B. The Joys of Travelling with Children C. The Approaches to Making Travel Comfortable D. The Reflection on Working as a Travel Writer 【答案】4. D 5. A 6. A 7. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。作者作为一名旅行作家，其工作需要独自出行，这引起了女儿玛娅的不安。起初作者独自旅行，回来后女儿表示愿意妥协，只要能一起出行。通过这些经历认识到旅行对孩子成长有着积极影响，如让孩子变得更勇敢、独立、富有创造力和想象力，她也因此感激与女儿的旅行妥协，强调了亲子旅行带来的孩子成长和亲子关系增进等积极意义。 【4题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段中“I tried to explain my work as a travel writer. (我试图解释我作为一名旅行作家的工作。)”及第二段“A few days later, I returned home and Maia was happy to hear about my trip. She told me I could keep going on trips for work-but we’d compromise(妥协), she’d come with me. (几天后，我回到家，玛娅很高兴听到我的旅行经历。她告诉我我可以继续为了工作去旅行——但我们可以妥协，她会和我一起去。)”可知，作者是因为工作（旅行写作）而旅行，故选D项。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段中“Wanting to prove her worth as an assistant, she began interviewing the Australian couple sitting beside us. Unable to spell more than a few words, she drew their answers in crayon(蜡笔)。She ended up being such an easy travel companion and we found a special rhythm(节奏) on the road together. (为了证明自己作为助手的价值，她开始采访坐在我们旁边的澳大利亚夫妇。由于她拼不出几个单词，便用蜡笔写下他们的答案。最后，她成了一个非常轻松的旅伴，我们在路上找到了一种特殊的节奏。)”可以看出，在这次旅行中女儿表现得很好，是个轻松的旅伴，作者和女儿一起找到了旅行的节奏，所以作者认为这次旅行是愉快的，故选A项。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段中“I was impressed by how cheerfully fearless she was when we swam in cenotes(天然井). But it was on the flight home, when my little kid said it was okay that the airline didn’t seat us together, that I realized how much travel was shaping her. (当我们在天然井游泳时，她是多么开朗无畏，这给我留下了深刻的印象。但在回家的飞机上，当我的孩子说航空公司不让我们坐在一起没关系时，我才意识到旅行对她的影响有多大。)”可知，旅行让女儿变得更加勇敢无畏，并且在航班上的表现也体现出她更加独立，故选A项。 【7题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第四段中“Wanting to prove her worth as an assistant, she began interviewing the Australian couple sitting beside us. Unable to spell more than a few words, she drew their answers in crayon(蜡笔)。She ended up being such an easy travel companion and we found a special rhythm(节奏) on the road together. (想要证明自己作为助手的价值，她开始采访坐在我们旁边的澳大利亚夫妇。由于她拼不出几个单词，便用蜡笔记录下他们的答案。最后，她成了一个非常轻松的旅伴，我们在路上一起找到了一种特殊的节奏。)”及第五段中“I was impressed by how cheerfully fearless she was when we swam in cenotes(天然井). But it was on the flight home, when my little kid said it was okay that the airline didn’t seat us together, that I realized how much travel was shaping her. (当我们在天然井游泳时，她是多么开朗无畏，这给我留下了深刻的印象。但在回家的飞机上，当我的孩子说航空公司不让我们坐在一起没关系时，我才意识到旅行对她的影响有多大。)”可知，文章主要讲述了作者和女儿一起旅行的经历以及旅行对女儿的积极影响，如女儿在旅行中的成长等，强调了和孩子一起旅行的快乐，B项“The Joys of Travelling with Children (带孩子旅行的乐趣)”最能概括全文，符合文章主旨。故选B项。 C On Scotland’s west coast is the Firth of Clyde, a large home to thousands of porpoises(海豚) and one dolphin named Kylie. Kylie hasn’t been observed with other common dolphins in at least 14 years but she’s far from alone. On clear days in the Clyde, visitors to the marina can sometimes see Kylie swimming with porpoises, which are about two-thirds her size. New research suggests Kylie’s ties to porpoises are closer than scientists imagined. While a common dolphin’s vocal(发声的) ability should include a diverse range of clicks, whistles (口哨声)，and etc. , Kylie doesn’t whistle. Instead, she “talks” more like porpoises, which communicate using high bursts of clicks. “The study suggests that she may be communicating with the porpoises, or at least attempting to. It’s part of a growing body of work that shows a rich world of interactions(互动) between different species of dolphins, Clearly, species in the wild interact much more than we thought,” says dolphin behaviour expert Denise Herzing. To learn more about Kylie’s relationship with the porpoises, scientists borrowed a device (装置) to record sounds of Kylie and porpoises when they met each other from 2016 to 2018. “She’s definitely identified as a porpoise,” says Nairn, who trained as a sea biologist in college. Researchers also studied thousands of dolphins clicks from the recordings carefully. While dolphins whistle very often, porpoises never do. Instead, they communicate with what are called narrow-band, high-frequency (NBHF) clicks. To hear an NBHF click you have to play it about one hundred times slower. Ever since February 2021, Kylie has been missing. Nairn says he can’t help but worry. Nairn and his workmates say they’re eager to look for and listen to Kylie as soon as the spring field season begins-and see what else she might teach us. 8. In what way are porpoises different from dolphins? A. Porpoises are bigger in size. B. Porpoises never whistle. C. Porpoises like living in groups. D. Porpoises live in fresh waters. 9. How does Kylie communicate with the porpoises? A. By touching. B. By whispering. C. By nodding her head. D. By giving out clicks. 10. What was the device used for? A. Taking clear pictures of Kylie underwater. B. Learning more about Kylie’s habitat. C. Studying the clicks made by Kylie and the porpoises. D. Examining how sea creatures interact each other. 11. What is a good way to hear an NBHF click? A. Playing it underwater. B. Playing it repeatedly. C. Playing it in a quiet place. D. Playing it a lot more slowly. 【答案】8. B 9. D 10. C 11. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章围绕苏格兰西海岸的一只名为Kylie的海豚展开，详细介绍了它与鼠海豚之间特殊的关系，包括Kylie在发声方式上与普通海豚不同而更像鼠海豚，科学家为了研究它们的关系借用设备记录声音并进行分析等内容。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中“While dolphins whistle very often, porpoises never do. (虽然海豚经常发出哨声，但鼠海豚从不这样做。)”可知，海豚经常吹口哨，而鼠海豚从不吹口哨，这是它们在发声方式上的不同，故选B项。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“Instead, she ‘’talks’ more like porpoises, which communicate using high bursts of clicks. (相反，她“说话”更像鼠海豚，鼠海豚使用高频率的咔哒声进行交流。)”可知，Kylie像鼠海豚一样通过发出一连串的咔哒声来交流，故选D项。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中“To learn more about Kylie’s relationship with the porpoises, scientists borrowed a device (装置) to record sounds of Kylie and porpoises when they met each other from 2016 to 2018. (为了更多地了解凯莉与鼠海豚的关系，科学家们借了一个装置，用于记录2016年至2018年凯莉和鼠海豚相遇时的声音。)”可知，该装置是用来记录Kylie和鼠海豚相遇时发出的声音，也就是研究它们发出的咔哒声，故选C项。 【11题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段中“To hear an NBHF click you have to play it about one hundred times slower. (要听到一个窄带高频咔哒声，你必须把它放慢大约一百倍来播放。)”可知，要听到窄带高频（NBHF）咔哒声，需要将其播放速度放慢约一百倍，故选D项。 D When making decisions, most people view cost as an important consideration. While price is undoubtedly important, what about some hidden costs that also come into play? For example, what are the long—term effects of your decision? Have you considered how your decision impacts your relationships? Simply put, hidden costs may be invisible to the naked eye, but they're very visible (可见的) to your wallet. Ignoring these factors can cost you a lot. Consider a scene where a manager cuts costs by asking some workers to leave. While this move reduces salary expenses, how will it impact the morale (士气) and loyalty of the remaining employees? Similarly, imagine somebody spending hours surfing the web, lost in searching for cheaper things. The question is whether the savings equal the spent time. If cost is your only consideration, you'll pay the price. Price Isn't the Only Cost! Furthermore, even if cost is the only factor in your decision—making, all of the “true costs” should be considered. For example, if you're thinking about buying new technology the equipment cost is only part of the price. People will need training, the software may need customization, and you'll probably lose productivity until people get up to speed. Those are real costs too. In addition, even when price is the main consideration, it's important to tell the difference between price and value. For example, when you're investing in a high—quality product from a famous organization, compare maintenance (保养) and repair costs with its competitors, assess the product life span, and hear what existing customers have to say. As the old saying goes, “You get what you pay for.” Always keep in mind that every time you say “yes” to one thing, you're certainly saying “no” to another. So, in decision—making, always consider invisible costs. This ensures you're aiming for the best solution rather than a good one. After all, choices are easy. The tough part is living with them. 12. What does the underlined phrase “come into play” in paragraph I mean? A. Come into sight. B. Play a part. C. Come into use. D. Play around. 13. What may be the hidden cost of firing workers? A. Reducing salary expenses. B. Cutting costs of the company. C. Doing wonders for the workers' morale. D. Discouraging the remaining workers. 14. How is the passage mainly developed? A. By giving examples. B. By listing figures. C. By using space order. D. By explaining concepts. 15. What can we learn from this passage? A. You get what you pay for. B. Price is the main consideration. C. Considering the best solution is easy. D. Be thoughtful when making decisions. 【答案】12. B 13. D 14. A 15. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要讲述了在做决策时，除了考虑显而易见的成本外，还应考虑一些隐藏的成本，这些隐藏的成本可能对决策的长期效果产生重大影响。 【12题详解】 词句猜测题。根据文章第一段“For example, what are the long—term effects of your decision? Have you considered how your decision impacts your relationships? Simply put, hidden costs may be invisible to the naked eye, but they're very visible  (可见的) to your wallet. Ignoring these factors can cost you a lot.”（在做决定时，大多数人把成本视为一个重要的考虑因素。价格无疑是很重要的，那么一些隐性成本又如何呢?例如，你的决定的长期影响是什么?你是否考虑过你的决定会如何影响你的人际关系?简单地说，隐性成本可能肉眼看不见，但在你的钱包里却很明显。忽略这些因素会让你付出很大代价。）可推知，虽然价格无疑是重要的，但是还有一些隐藏的成本也起着作用。“come into play”意为“起作用”。故选B。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段“While this move reduces salary expenses, how will it impact the morale (士气) and loyalty of the remaining employees?”（虽然这个举动减少了工资支出，但它将如何影响剩下的员工的士气和忠诚度？）可推知，解雇员工的隐藏成本可能是剩下的员工的士气和忠诚度受到影响。故选D。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第一段“For example, what are the long—term effects of your decision? Have you considered how your decision impacts your relationships? Simply put, hidden costs may be invisible to the naked eye, but they're very visible（可见的） to your wallet. Ignoring these factors can cost you a lot.”（在做决定时，大多数人把成本视为一个重要的考虑因素。价格无疑是很重要的，那么一些隐性成本又如何呢?例如，你的决定的长期影响是什么?你是否考虑过你的决定会如何影响你的人际关系?简单地说，隐性成本可能肉眼看不见，但在你的钱包里却很明显。忽略这些因素会让你付出很大代价。），再根据第三段“For example, if you're thinking about buying new technology the equipment cost is only part of the price. People will need training, the software may need customization, and you'll probably lose productivity until people get up to speed. Those are real costs too. ”（例如，如果你正在考虑购买新技术，设备成本只是价格的一部分。人们将需要培训，软件可能需要定制，在人们跟上速度之前，您可能会失去生产力。这些也是实际成本。）可知，文章通过举例的方式，说明了在做决策时，除了考虑显而易见的成本外，还应考虑一些隐藏的成本，这些隐藏的成本可能对决策的长期效果产生重大影响。故选A。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“Always keep in mind that every time you say “yes” to one thing, you're certainly saying “no” to another. So, in decision—making, always consider invisible costs. This ensures you're aiming for the best solution rather than a good one. After all, choices are easy. The tough part is living with them.”（始终记住，每次你对一件事说“是”，你肯定对另一件事说“否”。所以，在决策时，总是要考虑看不见的成本。这确保你的目标是寻求最好的解决方案，而不仅仅是一个好的解决方案。毕竟，选择是容易的。困难的部分是与它们共存。）可推知，我们应该在做决策时要深思熟虑。故选D。 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。 How to Cheer up Your Friend The following tips will make your friend cheer up.

Hear out her problem before reacting (回应). But try to help her asking questions such as, “What things can you do to make the situation better?” or “What’s been happening at work lately that’s been good?”(如果你的朋友对工作中的某件事很生气，帮助她看到事情积极的一面。在做出反应之前先听听她的问题。但试着帮助她问一些问题，比如，“你能做些什么来改善情况？”或者“最近工作上发生了什么好事？”)”可知，本段主要说明的是帮助朋友看到事情积极的一面，B选项“Help her to see the positive side(帮助她看到积极的一面)”概括了本段主要内容，可作为主题句。故选B。 【17题详解】 根据第三段的主题句“Send her a card or postcard.(给她寄张卡片或明信片。)”与空前一句“Drop a note in the mail to her.(给她寄封信。)”判断，本段建议给朋友写封邮件或者寄张明信片，因此推断空格处要说她寄卡片相关的内容，G项“If you include one with a funny card, that’s better(如果你附上一张有趣的卡片，那就更好了)”，符合语境，承接上文，呼应主题。故选G。 【18题详解】 根据该空后的“as they can help her build confidence and self-esteem(因为它们可以帮助她建立自信和自尊)”判断，空格处要说到一些帮助她建立自信和自尊的事情，E项“Don’t be afraid to tell your friend these things(不要害怕告诉你的朋友这些事)”提到要告诉朋友一些事情，其中的“these things”指代前面提到的有关“they are smart, strong, and beautiful”的事情，而告诉朋友这些事情能帮助她建立自信和自尊，与下文构成因果关系。故选E。 【19题详解】 根据主题句Try out new things together.(一起尝试新事物)和空后的“If you want your friends to be happy, encourage them to try new things with you.(如果你想让你的朋友开心，鼓励他们和你一起尝试新事物。)”判断，本段建议和朋友一起尝试新事物，因此空格处应该提到新事物，D项“In turn, discover new things you love(反过来，发现你喜欢的新事物)”提到要发现新事物，其中的“new things”和空后的“new things”相一致，因此D选项符合语境。故选D。 【20题详解】 根据空前的主题句“Bring her one of her favorite treats.(给她带一个她最喜欢的食物。)”与空后一句“Maybe she can’t live without an afternoon coffee, or maybe she has a special love for black forest cake.(也许她离不开下午的咖啡，也许她对黑森林蛋糕情有独钟。)”判断，本段建议给朋友带一些她最喜欢的美食，故C项“You know what your friend likes(你知道你朋友喜欢什么)”说到了你知道朋友喜欢什么，承上启下，呼应主题，引出下文朋友可能喜欢的食物。故选C。 第三部分 语言运用(共两节，满分30分) 第一节(共15小题;每小题1分，满分15分) 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项.

Since my parents were very busy at that time, my Aunt Julia often took care of me during their absence. One rainy day, when Julia and I were heading toward home, I caught sight of an old lady wearing an orange jacket with a huge bag and a walking stick. Out of curiosity, I asked Julia, “Who is she? What is she doing with that huge bag?” Julia caught a glimpse at her, then told me, “She is called Melinda. She has been collecting garbage with that huge garbage bag in the town for several years. Nobody knows why she’s been doing it. Maybe just for fun.” Hearing her words, I couldn’t help exclaiming, “Wow! It’s so strange! Why does she find it funny to collect garbage?” Since that day, I had come across her for many times on my way home. She always carried the huge garbage bag whether it was rainy or sunny. Gradually, I didn’t find her strange for collecting garbage. Instead, I began to greet her with a smile. Two years later, I was admitted to Chicago University. To my disappointment, I often saw trash on the lawn on campus. “Why should people litter everywhere? Who is responsible for the trash?” A few days later, it occurred to me that, since nobody took responsibility for it, why not collect trash myself? That way, I could walk past the lawn without feeling guilty. Then, I took action. I always took a trash bag and collect trash on the lawn every time I walked past it. A few students also followed suit soon afterwards, keeping the school cleaner and prettier than before. One day, an idea popped into my head when I finished collecting trash — maybe we could help make the city cleaner and prettier too! Despite the thought that collecting trash in front of so many people outside school was awkward, I knew it was the right thing to do. So I decided to give it a go. 注意：1. 续写词数共150左右； 2. 续写部分分为两段，每段的开头语已为你写好； 3. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Paragraph 1: One day, I was collecting garbage outside the school. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: Then I realized that I should encourage more students to take part. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 One day, I was collecting garbage outside the school. Some people gave me a strange look, as if l were mad. All of a sudden, I thought of the old woman who used to collect garbage many years ago. It occurred to me that I was acting just like her. As strange as that may seem, collecting garbage was meaningful for me. Little by little, a lot of people, came to realize that I was doing voluntary service to keep the town clean, and I was complimented and thanked. Then I realized that I should encourage more students to take part. Surprisingly, they agreed and we founded a voluntary group. We gave each student a bright orange jacket with the message “Let’s Keep Our Town Cleaner!” We spent the time not just collecting trash, but also sorting it out and recycling it. The most wonderful thing was that all the people who were close to us were also doing their part! I said to myself, “This is what the old woman did for me. She has changed my life greatly.“” 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，文章讲述了作者在年轻时受老妇人的影响开始收集垃圾，后来在大学时继续这种行为，并得到其他同学的支持，最终建立了一个志愿者团体，致力于保持城镇的清洁，并鼓励更多人参与。文章传达了一个关于环保和社会责任的正能量故事。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“有一天，我在学校外面捡垃圾。”可知，第一段可描写作者在学校外面捡垃圾的过程以及作者的感受。。 ②由第二段首句内容“然后我意识到我应该鼓励更多的学生参加。”可知，第二段可描写作者成立了一个志愿者小组鼓励更多的人进来参与收集垃圾。。 2.续写线索：在学校外面捡垃圾——想起了多年前收集垃圾的老妇人——认识到行为的意义——鼓励更多的学生参加收集垃圾——成立了一个志愿者小组——感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①想到：thought of sth/sth came into one’s mind ②成立，建立：founded/set up ③感谢：thanked/appreciated 情绪类 ①令人惊讶的是：Surprisingly/Amazingly/ To one's surprise ②美妙的：wonderful/fantastic 【点睛】【高分句型1】All of a sudden, I thought of the old woman who used to collect garbage many years ago.(运用了关系代词who引导的定语从句) 【高分句型2】Little by little, a lot of people, came to realize that I was doing voluntary service to keep the town clean, and I was complimented and thanked.

Here we’re naming some of our favourite cities for music. Nashville With the nickname “Music City”. Nashville makes our list of best music cities. You’re bound to hear live music anywhere, whether at your hotel bar, or at the historic Ryman Auditorium. Nashville is not only home to the Country Music Hall of Fame and the Johnny Cash Museum, but it’s still active in the recording studio scene. Vienna If you’re after classical music on your next vacation, be sure to head to Vienna. Once the capital of the Habsburg Empire, the city was the centre of all societal affairs which included music. The greatest classical composers — from Mozart to Haydn to Beethoven to Mahler — all lived and worked in Vienna at one point or another. New York New York has been described as a “melting pot (熔炉)” of cultures, and that applies to its music, too. The 20th century was particularly fruitful for New York’s music scene. During this time, it became the birthplace of hip-hop, disco, and salsa music, among other styles. The list truly goes on and on. New Orleans The city is filled with jazz, where you can listen to the great music every night. Of course, you can catch jazz at venues across town the-genre was born here, after all. If you’re a huge jazz fan, you might want to consider visiting during the annual New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival. 1. Which city is more attractive to visitors who want to know the classical musicians? A. Vienna. B. Nashville. C. New Orleans. D. New York. 2. What is special about New York as a music city? A. It is recognized as the birthplace and hot area of jazz. B. It is a meeting pointing for various styles of music. C. It enables people to enjoy the live shows inside and outside hotel bars. D. It holds musical festivals for hip-pop and disco fans each year. 3. Where is this text probably taken from? A. A textbook. B. A poster. C. A magazine. D. A diary. B The first time my daughter Maia, realized I was leaving on a trip without her, she was alarmed. Seeing photos of where I was going, she cried and asked why I was going to leave her behind. I tried to explain my work as a travel writer. But as my husband, Evan, pulled her off my leg so I could leave, I wondered if my solo trips would be worth the effort of going without her. A few days later, I returned home and Maia was happy to hear about my trip. She told me I could keep going on trips for work-but we’d compromise(妥协), she’d come with me. One year later, an invitation came to experience the Rocky Mountaineer on a parent-child journey, And as scary as it seemed to take a preschooler on a train, the trip sounded too good to pass up. Dressed in her most beautiful train-riding clothes, four-year-old Maia watched me take notes about the scenery as we chugged along the Fraser River in BC. Wanting to prove her worth as an assistant, she began interviewing the Australian couple sitting beside us. Unable to spell more than a few words, she drew their answers in crayon(蜡笔)。She ended up being such an easy travel companion and we found a special rhythm(节奏) on the road together. When she was six, we flew to the Riviera Maya in Mexico. I was impressed by how cheerfully fearless she was when we swam in cenotes(天然井). But it was on the flight home, when my little kid said it was okay that the airline didn’t seat us together, that I realized how much travel was shaping her. Research says that travel can expand a kid’s world, helping them become more adaptable while developing their creativity and imagination. Seeing those changes in Maia, I am really grateful for that compromise I made with her, 4. What can we learn about the author from the first two paragraphs? A. She enjoyed travelling alone. B. She gave up work for family. C She travelled a lot with her kid. D. She went on trips for work. 5. What did the author think of the Rocky Mountaineer trip with Maia? A. Enjoyable. B. Annoying. C. Awkward. D. Tiring. 6. What influence did travel have on Maia? A. She grew braver and more independent. B. She became much closer to the writer. C. She made new friends and learned new skills. D. She became more outgoing and cheerful. 7. What is a suitable title for the text? A. The Challenges of Accompanying Kids B. The Joys of Travelling with Children C. The Approaches to Making Travel Comfortable D. The Reflection on Working as a Travel Writer C On Scotland’s west coast is the Firth of Clyde, a large home to thousands of porpoises(海豚) and one dolphin named Kylie. Kylie hasn’t been observed with other common dolphins in at least 14 years but she’s far from alone. On clear days in the Clyde, visitors to the marina can sometimes see Kylie swimming with porpoises, which are about two-thirds her size. New research suggests Kylie’s ties to porpoises are closer than scientists imagined. While a common dolphin’s vocal(发声的) ability should include a diverse range of clicks, whistles (口哨声)，and etc. , Kylie doesn’t whistle. Instead, she “talks” more like porpoises, which communicate using high bursts of clicks. “The study suggests that she may be communicating with the porpoises, or at least attempting to. It’s part of a growing body of work that shows a rich world of interactions(互动) between different species of dolphins, Clearly, species in the wild interact much more than we thought,” says dolphin behaviour expert Denise Herzing. To learn more about Kylie’s relationship with the porpoises, scientists borrowed a device (装置) to record sounds of Kylie and porpoises when they met each other from 2016 to 2018. “She’s definitely identified as a porpoise,” says Nairn, who trained as a sea biologist in college. Researchers also studied thousands of dolphins clicks from the recordings carefully. While dolphins whistle very often, porpoises never do. Instead, they communicate with what are called narrow-band, high-frequency (NBHF) clicks. To hear an NBHF click you have to play it about one hundred times slower. Ever since February 2021, Kylie has been missing. Nairn says he can’t help but worry. Nairn and his workmates say they’re eager to look for and listen to Kylie as soon as the spring field season begins-and see what else she might teach us. 8. In what way are porpoises different from dolphins? A. Porpoises are bigger in size. B. Porpoises never whistle. C. Porpoises like living in groups. D. Porpoises live in fresh waters. 9. How does Kylie communicate with the porpoises? A. By touching. B. By whispering. C. By nodding her head. D. By giving out clicks. 10. What was the device used for? A. Taking clear pictures of Kylie underwater. B. Learning more about Kylie’s habitat. C. Studying the clicks made by Kylie and the porpoises. D. Examining how sea creatures interact each other. 11. What is a good way to hear an NBHF click? A. Playing it underwater. B. Playing it repeatedly. C. Playing it in a quiet place. D. Playing it a lot more slowly. D When making decisions, most people view cost as an important consideration. While price is undoubtedly important, what about some hidden costs that also come into play? For example, what are the long—term effects of your decision? Have you considered how your decision impacts your relationships? Simply put, hidden costs may be invisible to the naked eye, but they're very visible (可见的) to your wallet. Ignoring these factors can cost you a lot. Consider a scene where a manager cuts costs by asking some workers to leave. While this move reduces salary expenses, how will it impact the morale (士气) and loyalty of the remaining employees? Similarly, imagine somebody spending hours surfing the web, lost in searching for cheaper things. The question is whether the savings equal the spent time. If cost is your only consideration, you'll pay the price. Price Isn't the Only Cost! Furthermore, even if cost is the only factor in your decision—making, all of the “true costs” should be considered. For example, if you're thinking about buying new technology the equipment cost is only part of the price. People will need training, the software may need customization, and you'll probably lose productivity until people get up to speed. Those are real costs too. In addition, even when price is the main consideration, it's important to tell the difference between price and value. For example, when you're investing in a high—quality product from a famous organization, compare maintenance (保养) and repair costs with its competitors, assess the product life span, and hear what existing customers have to say. As the old saying goes, “You get what you pay for.” Always keep in mind that every time you say “yes” to one thing, you're certainly saying “no” to another. So, in decision—making, always consider invisible costs. This ensures you're aiming for the best solution rather than a good one. After all, choices are easy. The tough part is living with them. 12. What does the underlined phrase “come into play” in paragraph I mean? A. Come into sight. B. Play a part. C. Come into use. D. Play around. 13. What may be the hidden cost of firing workers? A. Reducing salary expenses. B. Cutting costs of the company. C. Doing wonders for the workers' morale. D. Discouraging the remaining workers. 14. How is the passage mainly developed? A. By giving examples. B. By listing figures. C. By using space order. D. By explaining concepts. 15. What can we learn from this passage? A. You get what you pay for. B. Price is the main consideration. C. Considering the best solution is easy. D. Be thoughtful when making decisions. 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。 How to Cheer up Your Friend The following tips will make your friend cheer up.

Since my parents were very busy at that time, my Aunt Julia often took care of me during their absence. One rainy day, when Julia and I were heading toward home, I caught sight of an old lady wearing an orange jacket with a huge bag and a walking stick. Out of curiosity, I asked Julia, “Who is she? What is she doing with that huge bag?” Julia caught a glimpse at her, then told me, “She is called Melinda. She has been collecting garbage with that huge garbage bag in the town for several years. Nobody knows why she’s been doing it. Maybe just for fun.” Hearing her words, I couldn’t help exclaiming, “Wow! It’s so strange! Why does she find it funny to collect garbage?” Since that day, I had come across her for many times on my way home. She always carried the huge garbage bag whether it was rainy or sunny. Gradually, I didn’t find her strange for collecting garbage. Instead, I began to greet her with a smile. Two years later, I was admitted to Chicago University. To my disappointment, I often saw trash on the lawn on campus. “Why should people litter everywhere? Who is responsible for the trash?” A few days later, it occurred to me that, since nobody took responsibility for it, why not collect trash myself? That way, I could walk past the lawn without feeling guilty. Then, I took action. I always took a trash bag and collect trash on the lawn every time I walked past it. A few students also followed suit soon afterwards, keeping the school cleaner and prettier than before. One day, an idea popped into my head when I finished collecting trash — maybe we could help make the city cleaner and prettier too! Despite the thought that collecting trash in front of so many people outside school was awkward, I knew it was the right thing to do. So I decided to give it a go. 注意：1. 续写词数共150左右； 2. 续写部分分为两段，每段的开头语已为你写好； 3. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Paragraph 1: One day, I was collecting garbage outside the school. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: Then I realized that I should encourage more students to take part. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
