My parents didn’t ask me to start. It was my idea. When I was 12, I had nothing to keep me busy during the summer holidays. I was really bored, so I bought a chess set, and soon I fell in love with it. It took me a long time to learn the rules. There were some instructions on the box, but I had to read books and watch some videos on the Internet, too. Going to a chess club was an easy way to get help, but I enjoyed learning by myself. Soon after, I played my first game with one of my friends. I wanted to do well, but I lost! I didn’t feel bad or get angry with my friend. Instead, I got to know how difficult the game is and I decided to work hard to become a great chess player. Now, four years later, that is still my dream. I’m in the school chess club and I practice three times a week. Also, I’m always reading books on chess at home, and playing against my computer. Next week, there will be a big game and many young chess players will join in it. It’ll be my first big game and I’m really looking forward to showing everyone what I can do. 26.

F 【解析】 【导语】本文介绍了香蕉植物以及香蕉的一些情况。 【46题详解】 根据“Some are as small as fingers.”以及“Some banana plants grow as tall as a house—even taller!”可知，这里接着上句内容，继续描述香蕉的大小情况，选项E“还有一些和男人的胳膊一样长。”符合，故选E。 47题详解】 根据“Some never get sweet, and they are cooked as a kind of vegetable.”可知，这里应该是说不是所有的香蕉都能作水果，选项A“并非所有的香蕉都是水果。”符合，故选A。 【48题详解】 根据“First a stalk pushes up into the air.”以及“In the beginning, the banana plant grows very fast—sometimes as much as the length of your feet in one night.”可知，这里应该是说香蕉植物的生长情况，选项B“然后叶子生长。”符合，故选B。 【49题详解】 根据“As they get bigger, bananas start turning up (卷起来). ”可知，这里说的是香蕉的生长情况，选项D“看起来它们好像是倒着长的!”符合，故选D。 【50题详解】 根据“This is because bananas have to travel many miles before they arrive at a store.”以及“There are special boats just for bananas and special trains that keep them just cool enough so that they will get ripe (成熟的) while traveling.”可知，这里应是说香蕉运输的情况，选项F“香蕉在船上和火车上周游世界。”符合，故选F。 三、阅读表达（共10小题；计20分） 完成图表。根据短文内容，完成图表格中所缺信息。 “Life is like a box of chocolate. You never know what you’ re going to get.” It’s the same as blind boxes. The earliest blind boxes were from Japan in the late 1860s. The Japanese have been buying blind boxes during the New Year for a long time. They called blind boxes “lucky bags”. Blind boxes appeared in our country in 2014. They become big business in China these days. The market for blind boxes could grow to 25 billion (十亿) yuan in 2025 from about 3 billion yuan in 2019. During the Double 11 shopping day, Pop Mart, a popular blind box company in China, sold 55,000 Labubu dolls in just 9 seconds. Why do people like these blind boxes? First, they have beautiful and cute looks inside the boxes. Second, they’ re like miniature (微型的) cartoon characters. It’s possible to put them almost anywhere in your home. But another reason is that the “surprise factor (因素)” makes them fun to buy. Sometimes, it’s a toy that you want. But sometimes, it’s not the one you want. Each of these small, closed boxes has one of many toys in it. The buyer doesn’t know what they can get until they open the box. “The most interesting thing about blind boxes is the gap (差距) between what you expect and what you get,” said Wen Xi, a blind box lover from Beijing. Some people surely get much fun from the boxes, but others worry that children might spend too much money on these toys. If you really want something special from a blind box, you might not get it in the first box. So you buy another box, hoping that you’ll get the toy you want this time. Then you buy another, and another. Pretty soon, you’ve spent all your money. I think we have to be smart about it. Part of growing up is learning self-control (自控), after all. 51. ________ 52. ________ 53. ________________ 54. ________ 55. ________ 【答案】51. history 52. popularity 53. ①. so ②. that 54. expectations 55. wisely 【解析】 【导语】本文介绍了盲盒受欢迎的原因以及人们对盲盒的看法。 【51题详解】 根据“The earliest blind boxes were from Japan in the late 1860s.”、“Blind boxes appeared in our country in 2014. They become big business in China these days.”可知，这些都是在讲述盲盒的“历史”，故填history。 【52题详解】 根据“Why do people like these blind boxes? First, they have beautiful and cute looks inside the boxes. Second, they’ re like miniature (微型的) cartoon characters. It’s,,,a blind box lover from Beijing.”可知，此处是在解释盲盒受欢迎的原因，根据空后their可知，此处需填名词popularity“受欢迎”。故填popularity。 【53题详解】 根据“Second, they’ re like miniature (微型的) cartoon characters. It’s possible to put them almost anywhere in your home.”可知，这些玩具如此小，以至于你几乎可以把它们放在任何地方。故空处可需so...that...“如此……以至于……”来引导结果状语从句。故填so；that。 【54题详解】 根据最后一段“If you really want something special from a blind box, you might not get it in the first box. So you buy another box, hoping that you’ll get the toy you want this time. Then you buy another, and another. Pretty soon, you’ve spent all your money.‘”可知，如果他们期待的和他们得到的不一样，人们会继续购买盲盒。根据“their他们的”可知，其后跟名词复数expectations“期望”。故填expectations。 【55题详解】 根据“Pretty soon, you’ve spent all your money. I think we have to be smart about it. Part of growing up is learning self-control (自控), after all.”可知，作者认为有必要学会控制自己，智慧地花钱。故空处指“智慧地”，spend为动词，需副词wisely修饰。故填wisely。 任务型阅读。根据短文内容，按要求回答问题。 Every city has a weather station. The workers need to collect weather data (数据). Then they make a report about the weather. The weather changes a lot, so it’s difficult for them to get the data.

Weather Days More than 155 days More than 125 days About 62 days About 12 days About 10 days Then why do the workers have to collect weather data? ★To help visitors Weather data is very useful to visitors.

For example, if the weather report says “tomorrow the temperature will drop below zero, to-10℃”, you’ll put on your down jackets before going out for work or school. ★ 4 Many animals live in the mountains or on the farm.

Because the weather changes a lot. 57. About 62 days. 58. People can know what to wear. 59. To help animals and fishermen 60. Three. 【解析】 【导语】本文介绍了天气数据的重要性。 【56题详解】 根据“The weather changes a lot, so it’s difficult for them to get the data.”可知，之所以工人收集天气数据很困难是因为天气变化多端。故填Because the weather changes a lot. 【57题详解】 根据图表“About 62 days”可知，有62个雨天。故填About 62 days。 【58题详解】 根据“With the help of weather data, people can know what to wear on that day.”可知，天气数据可以帮助人们知道每天该穿什么样的衣服。故填People can know what to wear. 【59题详解】 根据“Many animals live in the mountains or on the farm. Bad weather can sometimes bring them danger. So weather data is useful for helping animals. Also, weather data can help fishermen decide to sail out or not. So it is really important to us. We should say thanks to the workers.”可知，本段主要内容是关于天气数据对动物和渔民的帮助，所以小标题为“帮助动物和渔民”。故填To help animals and fishermen。 【60题详解】 根据“To help visitors”、“To help people in daily life”以及“So weather data is useful for helping animals...Also, weather data can help fishermen decide to sail out or not.”可知，文中提到了三点收集天气数据的原因，分别为：帮助游客、帮助人们的日常生活以及帮助动物和渔民。故填Three。 四、书面表达。（计15分） 61. 2024年即将结束，在这一年里你一定有很多难忘的瞬间。你校英语报面向全体学生征集稿件，邀请大家以“My 2024”为题写下自己今年最难忘的生活经历以及对新年的展望。 注意： 1.须包含图表中所有信息，可适当发挥； 2. 词数100左右； 3.文中不能出现真实姓名及学校名称。 __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】例文 My 2024 My 2024 was a year filled with unforgettable experiences.

When I was 12, I had nothing to keep me busy during the summer holidays. I was really bored, so I bought a chess set, and soon I fell in love with it. It took me a long time to learn the rules. There were some instructions on the box, but I had to read books and watch some videos on the Internet, too. Going to a chess club was an easy way to get help, but I enjoyed learning by myself. Soon after, I played my first game with one of my friends. I wanted to do well, but I lost! I didn’t feel bad or get angry with my friend. Instead, I got to know how difficult the game is and I decided to work hard to become a great chess player. Now, four years later, that is still my dream. I’m in the school chess club and I practice three times a week. Also, I’m always reading books on chess at home, and playing against my computer. Next week, there will be a big game and many young chess players will join in it. It’ll be my first big game and I’m really looking forward to showing everyone what I can do. 26.

How did the writer feel after he played his first game of chess? A. He was unhappy to lose. B. He was angry with his friend. C. He was sure that he wanted to learn more. 29. What does the underlined word “that” in Paragraph 4 refer to? A. Going to a big game. B. Joining the school chess club. C. Becoming a great chess player. 30. What can we inter (推断) from the text about the boy? A. He may win the first place in the future. B. He is in the school chess club and practices three times a week. C. He will soon get tired of chess and stop playing after losing games. C Imagine you wake up in the morning. A soft light turns on in your room. You go into the bathroom and the shower starts. The water is warm. After your shower, you go into the kitchen. Your favorite breakfast is already on the table. Welcome to your future house. Our houses in the future will be “smart”. Machines at home will talk with each other—and with you. For example, your refrigerator will know what you have in it and tell you what dishes you can make with the food. When you need more food, your refrigerator will tell you to buy it. This will be possible because of a special tool called RFID chips. They can store (储存) the information about all the food in your refrigerator. Our future houses will also “think”. If you are tired of the color of your walls, you won’t have to paint them again. The walls will change colors because of a special kind of technology (科技) —OLED. In fact, OLED walls will be screens. A computer will join the walls and the other things, and this computer will “rule” your house. Your house will learn about your likes and dislikes. It will then use that message to run the environment. What do you think of our future houses? 31. What does Paragraph 1 mainly talk about? A. What we will do in the future. B. What our future houses will be like. C. How we can improve our houses in the future. 32. What can RFID chips do? A. Do cooking. B. Order food online. C. Store information. 33. How will the computer rule your house? A. By turning on and off the lights. B By joining the walls and the other things. C. By only changing the colors of the walls. 34. What does the underlined word “message” in Paragraph 3 most probably refer to? A. What people like or dislike. B. What houses “think of”. C. What computers “rule”. 35. Where can you probably read the passage? A. In a newspaper. B. In a cookbook. C. In a science magazine.
