When I thought back on the wonderful things about my trip, something that happened on our ____11____ day in Lisbon came to mind. Before the trip, I put together a very detailed list of ____12____. One of the must-visits on my list was Livraria do Simão, one of the ____13____ bookshops in the world. On our very first day in Lisbon, Priscilla and I searched for it. ____14____ the bookshop was too small to find. Our schedule was jam-packed and we probably wouldn’t have time to look for it. On our last afternoon in Lisbon, Priscilla and I decided to visit a historic flea market (跳蚤市场). We walked for about an hour, up ____15____ hills. When we finally reached the market—completely out of breath—all the sellers were closing up shops. We were tired, hungry and more than a little anxious. Priscilla and I fought about the directions. I insisted (坚持) we turn right, which ended up being a ____16____ decision. We were completely lost. When Priscilla stopped to check the map, I ____17____ at the street sign, Rua da Madalena. I’d heard that name before. We continued a little farther up the street. There was something strangely familiar about it. I looked closer. There was a small shop hidden in the alleyway (小巷). It had ____18____ in its windows ... “Livraria do Simão? The bookshop!” I said to Priscilla. Luckily, the owner was about to leave. He led ____19____ inside the bookshop, which was no bigger than a walk-in closet (步入式衣柜). So Priscilla had to wait outside. There was a desk at one end and shelves lined with books all around. “Here, come and sit at the desk.” the man said. “See what it’s like to work here.” I sat down and Priscilla took my photo. Headed on our way back, I couldn’t stop smiling. We hadn’t just visited the smallest bookshop in Lisbon; we’d met the owner and taken a tour ____20____! 11. A. first B. second C. third D. last 12.

B 【解析】 【导语】本文讲述作者和姐姐普莉希拉在葡萄牙为期一周的度假经历。旅行前作者列了详细的要去景点清单，其中包括世界上最小的书店之一——西芒书店。在里斯本第一天，她们没找到书店。最后一个下午，原本打算去跳蚤市场，却迷路了。就在此时意外发现了西芒书店，还见到店主并进入店内参观，这成为旅途中难忘的美好回忆 。 【11题详解】 句意：当我回想起这次旅行中的美好事物时，在里斯本最后一天发生的一件事浮现在我的脑海中。 first第一；second第二；third第三；last最后的。根据下文内容“On our last afternoon in Lisbon...”可知，在旅途最后一天的下午，他们迷路后却意外发现了西芒书店。故选D。 【12题详解】 句意：在旅行之前，我列了一份非常详细的要去的地方的清单。 friends to visit要拜访的朋友；books to buy要买的书；places to see要去看的地方；food to eat要吃的食物。 根据“One of the must-visits on my list was...”可知，作者列的是旅行中要去的地点清单。故选C。 【13题详解】 句意：我清单上必去的地方之一是西芒书店，它是世界上最小的书店之一。 smallest最小的；cheapest最便宜的；biggest最大的；cleanest最干净的。根据后文“We hadn’t just visited the smallest bookshop in Lisbon”可知，这是世界上最小的书店。故选A。 【14题详解】 句意：但是这家书店太小了，很难找到。 So所以；Because因为；But但是；And和。根据设空处前后句子内容可知，前面说作者和姐姐在找书店，后面说书店太小找不到，前后句子是转折关系。故选C。 【15题详解】 句意：我们走了大约一个小时，爬上了许多小山。 none of没有一个； lots of许多； few几乎没有的（修饰可数名词复数）；any 任何（常用于否定句和疑问句）。根据“completely out of breath”可知，她们爬了很多小山才累得喘不过气。故选B。 【16题详解】 句意：我坚持要向右转，结果这是一个错误的决定。 bad坏的；good好的；big大的；final最终的。根据“We were completely lost. ”可知，作者坚持右转的决定导致迷路，是个错误的决定。故选A。 【17题详解】 句意：当普莉希拉停下来查看地图时，我抬头看了看街道标志，马德拉莱纳街。 looked over仔细检查；looked out向外看；looked up向上看；looked down向下看。根据常识可知，街道标识一般标记在路边高处的标识牌上，所以应是抬头向上看。故选C。 【18题详解】 句意：橱窗里有书。 bread面包；clothes衣服；fruits水果；books书。根据后文“The bookshop!”可知，这个商店就是她们要找的书店，所以书店架子上的应该是书。故选D。 【19题详解】 句意：他把我领进了店里，这家书店比一个步入式衣橱大不了多少。 her她；him他 ；us我们；me我。根据后文“So Priscilla had to wait outside.”可知，书店太小了，姐姐不得不在外面等着，所以设空处应用作者第一人称单数的口吻“me”表示店主让“我”一人先进入书店。故选D。 【20题详解】 句意：我们不仅参观了里斯本最小的书店，还见到了店主，并在店内参观了一番！。 outside在……外面；inside在……里面；around在……周围；above在……上面。根据“He led...inside the bookshop”可知，作者和姐姐进入书店里面参观了。故选B。 Ⅳ.阅读理解（共两节，共42分） 第一节（每小题2分，共32分） 阅读下列材料，从A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳答案，并把答题卡上对应该题目的答案标号涂黑。 A Many people dream of going on a great travel adventure (探险). Most of us keep dreaming; others make it happen. Gregg Bleakney’s dream was to travel the Americas (美洲) from top to bottom. He got the idea after he finished a 1,600-kilometer bike ride alone. Gregg’s friend Brooks Allen was also a cyclist (自行车骑手). The two friends talked and decided on their goal: they would travel from Alaska to Argentina—by bike. To pay for the journey, Gregg and Brooks worked and saved money for years. In 2015, after four years of planning, they set off. Once they were on the road, they often camped outdoors or stayed in hostels (旅社). In many places on their way, local people opened their homes to the two friends and gave them food. During their trip, Gregg and Brooks cycled through deserts, rain forests, and mountains. They visited modern cities and ancient ruins, such as Tikal in Guatemala. In many places, they met other cyclists from all over the world. Gregg and Brooks kept a record of their adventures in an online blog. The trip taught both men a lot about traveling. Here is some of Gregg’s advice. ●Travel light. The less baggage (行李) you have, the less you’ll worry about. ●Be flexible. Don’t plan everything. You’ll be more relaxed and happy even when there are challenges along the way. ●Be polite. As one traveler told Gregg, “Always remember that nobody wants to fight or cheat a nice guy.” 21. When did Gregg get the idea to travel the Americas? A. After finishing a long bike ride with his friend. B. After meeting other cyclists around the world. C. After riding the bike for 1,600 kilometers himself. D. After four years of planning with his friend. 22. What did Gregg and Brooks cycle through during their trip? A. Deserts and lakes. B. Rain forests and deserts. C. Mountains and seas. D. Rain forests and lakes. 23. Which statement would Gregg most likely agree with? A. It’s important to bring as much baggage as possible. B. When you travel, only stay in hotels with people you know. C. Learning how to show thanks or say sorry is necessary. D. You need to prepare everything to get ready in a better way. 24. In which part of a magazine can you read this passage? A. Travel and adventure. B. Amazing animals. C. City life. D. Stories and story tellers. 【答案】21. C 22. B 23. C 24. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章介绍了Gregg Bleakney和Brooks Allen实现了骑自行车横贯美洲的梦想。他们穿越了不同的地形，感受到了人们的热情，并分享了旅行中的感悟和建议。   【21题详解】 细节理解题。根据“He got the idea after he finished a 1,600-kilometer bike ride alone.”可知他独自完成了一次1600公里的自行车骑行后，就产生了这个想法。故选C。 【22题详解】 细节理解题。根据“During their trip, Gregg and Brooks cycled through deserts, rain forests, and mountains.”可知旅行期间，格雷格和布鲁克斯骑自行车穿越了沙漠、热带雨林和山脉。故选B。 【23题详解】 推理判断题。根据“Be polite.”可知格雷格认为要有礼貌，选项C“学会如何表示谢意或道歉是必要的。”符合。故选C。 【24题详解】 推理判断题。通读全文可知，文章讲述了格雷格和布鲁克斯骑行旅游的故事，选项A“旅行和冒险”符合。故选A。 B Many people say dolphins are intelligent. They seem to be able to think, understand, and learn things quickly. But are they as smart as humans, or are they more like cats and dogs? Dolphins use their brains quite differently from the way people do. But scientists say dolphins and humans are similar in some ways. How? ____________ Like humans, every dolphin has its own “name”. The name is a special whistle (哨子声). Each dolphin chooses a whistle for itself, usually by its first birthday. Dolphins are like people in other ways, too. They “talk” to each other about a lot of things—such as their age, their feelings, and possible danger. They also use a system of sounds and body language to communicate. Understanding dolphin conversation is not easy for humans. No one “speaks dolphin” yet, but some scientists are trying to learn. Play Dolphins live in groups called pods, and they often join other dolphins from different pods to play games and have fun-just like people. Sometimes they chase other dolphins carrying objects and throw these objects back and forth. Scientists believe playing together is something only intelligent animals do. Teamwork Dolphins and humans are similar in another way: They both make plans for getting things they want. In the seas of southern Brazil, for example, dolphins use an intelligent method to get food. When there are fish near a boat, dolphins signal to the fishermen to put their nets in the water. With the dolphins’ help, the men can catch a lot of fish. Why do dolphins help the men? There is an advantage for the dolphins: They get to eat some of the fish that escape from the net. 25. Why does the writer mention cats and dogs in Paragraph 1? A. To show cats and dogs are very intelligent. B. To tell us there are different levels of intelligence. C. To show cats and dogs are more intelligent than humans. D. To tell us humans and animals are similar in intelligence. 26. What’s the best title for Paragraph 2? A. Communication B. Names C. Dangers D. Feelings 27. How does the writer develop his idea in Paragraph 4? A. By telling a story. B. By explaining the result. C. By comparing differences. D. By giving an example. 28. What’s the purpose of writing the passage? A. To introduce some habits of dolphins and humans. B. To show how dolphins get food from humans wisely. C. To tell the differences between dolphins and humans. D. To show some similarities between dolphins and humans. 【答案】25. B 26. A 27. D 28. D 【解析】 【导语】本文主要介绍了海豚和人类在某些方面的相似之处。 【25题详解】 推理判断题。根据“Many people say dolphins are intelligent... But are they as smart as humans, or are they more like cats and dogs?”可知，海豚很聪明，但它们是和人类一样聪明，还是更像猫和狗呢？作者提及猫和狗，是为了告诉读者猫和狗的聪明与人类的聪明不是同一层次的。故选B。 【26题详解】 最佳标题题。根据“They ‘talk’ to each other about a lot of things” “They also use a system of sounds and body language to communicate.”可知，本段主要介绍了海豚是如何进行交流的。故选A。 【27题详解】 推理判断题。根据“In the seas of southern Brazil, for example, dolphins use an intelligent method to get food.”可知，作者通过举例子，介绍海豚和人类一样，会为了得到自己想要的东西制定计划。故选D。 【28题详解】 主旨大意题。本文主要介绍了海豚和人类在某些方面的相似之处。故选D。 C It was a quiet evening at Styles Court, a grand old house in the English countryside. The villagers were in the living room after dinner, enjoying tea and conversation. Among them was Hercule Poirot, a famous Belgian detective (侦探), who was invited to stay at the house by his friend John Cavendish. Suddenly, people heard a loud shout from upstairs. Everyone rushed to the noise and found Mrs. Inglethorp, the old mistress (女主人) of the house, lying on the floor of her bedroom. Beside her was a broken cup and a small bottle with the word “Strychnine”—a deadly poison (毒药). Poirot quickly took control. He checked the room carefully, noticing that the window was half open and a set of footprints led to the bed. He also found a piece of paper in the rubbish bin with the words “Meet me at the garden at midnight” written on it. The next morning Mrs. Inglethorp died in the hospital. The doctor was sure that she was poisoned. Some people said her husband, Alfred Inglethorp, poisoned her. However, Poirot didn’t think so. He noticed that Alfred had a strong alibi—he was seen in the village at the time of the poisoning. Besides, Poirot discovered that John Cavendish, Mrs. Inglethorp’s stepson, was in trouble and needed money. He also learned that Cynthia Murdoch, a young woman staying at the house, could get the poison because she worked in a hospital. As Poirot put together all the things, he realized that the criminal tried to frame (陷害) Alfred Inglethorp. But who was the real killer? Poirot’s smart mind was already forming a plan. —Adapted from The Mysterious Affair at Styles 29. Why did Hercule Poirot come to Styles Court? A. To look for a criminal B. To visit his friend C. To attend a party D. To find a job 30. Which of the following is the correct order of the events? a. Mrs. Inglethorp was found poisoned in her bedroom. b. Poirot noticed some clues in the bedroom. c. People heard a shout from upstairs. d. Mrs. Inglethorp died in the hospital. e. Poirot was invited to Styles Court by John Cavendish. A. e-c-a-b-d B. e-a-c-b-d C. c-e-a-b-d D. c-a-e-b-d 31. Which sentence can the underlined word alibi be put in? A. The man was caught and taken to the police station for his ________. B. The new-found ________ turned out that he couldn’t be the criminal. C. These results fully show a further ________ of his outstanding ability. D. As a general ________, vegetable oils are better for you than animal fats. 32. According to the passage, what will most likely happen next in the story? A. Alfred Inglethorp will be caught for the crime. B. John Cavendish will run away from Styles Court. C. Poirot will find the real killer and solve the case. D. Cynthia Murdoch will be responsible for the killing. 【答案】29. B 30. A 31. B 32. C 【解析】 【导语】本文主要改编于《斯泰尔斯庄园奇案》。 【29题详解】 细节理解题。根据“Among them was Hercule Poirot, a famous Belgian detective (侦探), who was invited to stay at the house by his friend John Cavendish.”可知，Hercule Poirot来到Styles Court的目的是为了拜访他的朋友。故选B。 【30题详解】 细节理解题。根据“Among them was Hercule Poirot, a famous Belgian detective (侦探), who was invited to stay at the house by his friend John Cavendish.”可知，Poirot被John Cavendish邀请到Styles Court排第一位，排除CD选项；再由“Suddenly, people heard a loud shout from upstairs.”可知，人们听到楼上有人大喊排第二位，因此排除B选项。故选A。 【31题详解】 推理判断题。根据“He noticed that Alfred had a strong alibi—he was seen in the village at the time of the poisoning.”可知，此处说的是Alfred有强有力的不在场的证据，因此划线单词的意思是“不在场的证据”，B选项“新发现的不在场证明证明他不可能是罪犯。”符合。故选B。 【32题详解】 推理判断题。根据“But who was the real killer? Poirot’s smart mind was already forming a plan.”可推知，故事接下来Poirot会找到真正的凶手并破案。故选C。 D ①In recent years, scientists have been working on a breaking technology that could change the way we think about solar (太阳能的) energy: solar paint. Unlike traditional solar panels (板), which are huge and expensive, solar paint is a lightweight material that can be painted on almost any surface. This creation could turn the whole buildings into energy providers, making green energy much more available than ever before. ②Solar paint works by using tiny particles called photovoltaic cells (光伏电池), which take in sunlight and change it into electricity. These cells are mixed into a liquid solution (溶液) that can be brushed onto walls, doors, or even windows. Once brushed, the paint begins to produce power at once. ③One of the most exciting things of solar paint is its potential (潜力) to cut carbon emissions (碳排放). Traditional energy like coal and oil is the main cause for climate change. By covering buildings with solar paint, cities could greatly cut their dependence on traditional energy and move closer to a green future. ④Researchers believe that a single coat of solar paint could produce enough energy to power a small household equipment. ⑤________. Now, solar paint is less efficient than traditional solar panels, and it is more expensive to produce. Scientists are working to improve its efficiency and lower costs, but it may take several years before solar paint becomes widely available. ⑥Although there are such challenges, the potential of solar paint is unstoppable. As technology develops, it could become a key tool in the fight against climate change, deeply changing the way we power our homes and cities. 33. What is the main material of solar paint that allows it to produce electricity? A. Liquid solution. B. Photovoltaic cells. C. Traditional solar panels. D. Sunlight that’s taken in. 34. What can be inferred from the passage? A. Climate change can be stopped by using solar paint. B. Cities don’t need to use traditional energy any more. C. It is not yet ready for the wide use of solar paint. D. Solar paint is less efficient than traditional energy. 35. Which of the following can be put into the ________? A. However, there are still some challenges to overcome B. Solar paint is also praised for some other advantages C. The power energy produced by solar paint can help us live a low-cost life D. The efficiency and price make solar paint much popular around the world 36. What’s the best structure of the passage? A. B. C. D. 【答案】33. B 34. C 35. A 36. A 【解析】 【导语】本文主要介绍了一种新技术——太阳能涂料。 【33题详解】 细节理解题。根据“Solar paint works by using tiny particles called photovoltaic cells (光伏电池), which take in sunlight and change it into electricity.”可知太阳能涂料的主要材料是光伏电池，它使太阳能涂料可以产电。故选B。 【34题详解】 推理判断题。根据“Scientists are working to improve its efficiency and lower costs, but it may take several years before solar paint becomes widely available.”可知太阳能涂料还没有广泛普及。故选C。 【35题详解】 推理判断题。根据“Now, solar paint is less efficient than traditional solar panels, and it is more expensive to produce.”可知此处是在介绍太阳能涂料面临的问题，选项A“不过，仍有许多挑战需要克服”符合语境。故选A。 【36题详解】 篇章结构题。通读全文可知，第一段引出这种新技术——太阳能涂料；第二段介绍了太阳能涂料的工作原理；第三、四段介绍了太阳能涂料的优点；第五段写出了太阳能涂料面临的问题；第六段作者展望未来。故选A。 第二节（每小题2分，共10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。 Is there a connection between music and language? According to recent studies, the answer is yes: ____37____ Here are two examples. Music and Hearing A study from Northwestern University shows that playing a musical instrument can improve a person’s hearing ability. As a part of the study, two groups of people listened to a person talking in a noisy room.

In these livestreams, livestreamers (主播) usually point their cameras at their desks, showing their study routines to viewers, who can study along with the livestreamers in videos. Zhang Qiuyang, a girl from Chengdu, Sichuan province, was a fan of “study with me” livestreams. “When I feel something as difficult—like studying—I become anxious and don’t want to start,” she explained. “However, watching someone else actively work on that task through a video helped me realize that it was not as challenging as I imagined.” About a year and a half ago, Zhang began creating her own videos in this area. She has got nearly 30, 000 followers on the video-sharing website Bilibili by the end of 2024. Through this process, she discovered even greater benefits. For example, as a “study with me” livestreamer, she has to set specific times for each study task and regulates (调节) her study time using a timer. “I need to offer a clear timetable to my fans and finish the task on time” Zhang explained. “In the past I never thought about such a way of using time.” Besides, “Whether you are the livestreamer or viewers, when you realize that many people around the world are experiencing similar challenges, you understand you are not fighting alone and it gives you strength to keep going,” she said. After livestreaming, Zhang also paid special attention to the messages and comments from other viewers, many of whom shared opinions and study schedules. “Many comments are really helpful for the livestreamers’ study.” However, not everyone enjoys learning with livestreamers. Wang Xia, a 16-year-old high school student from Chongqing No.8 Secondary School, is not interested in such livestreams at all. He said, “___________” 42 Can viewers study along with “study with me” livestreamers in videos? ______________________________________________________________ 43. How many followers has Zhang got on Bilibili by the end of 2024? ______________________________________________________________ 44. What are the benefits of being a “study with me” livestreamer? ______________________________________________________________ 45. What’s Wang Xia’s opinion? Fill in the blank.

They can make good use of their time, get strength to keep going, and learn from viewers through messages and comments. 45. I prefer to study in a quiet and independent environment rather than study with others through livestreams. Besides, we should learn to make our own study plans instead of following others’. 【解析】 【导语】本文主要介绍了“跟我一起学”这类直播。 【42题详解】 根据“In these livestreams, livestreamers (主播) usually point their cameras at their desks, showing their study routines to viewers, who can study along with the livestreamers in videos.”可知，观众可以在视频中跟随主播一起学习。故填Yes, they can. 【43题详解】 根据“She has got nearly 30, 000 followers on the video-sharing website Bilibili by the end of 2024.”可知，到2024年底，张秋阳在视频分享网站哔哩哔哩上拥有近3万粉丝。故填Nearly 30, 000 followers. 【44题详解】 根据第四、五、六段可知，成为“跟我一起学”的博主，可以更好地利用时间，获得继续前进的力量，并通过留言和评论向观众学习。故填They can make good use of their time, get strength to keep going, and learn from viewers through messages and comments. 【45题详解】 根据“Wang Xia, a 16-year-old high school student from Chongqing No.8 Secondary School, is not interested in such livestreams at all.”可知，王霞对这类直播一点也不感兴趣。故填 I prefer to study in a quiet and independent environment rather than study with others through livestreams.

Most of us keep dreaming; others make it happen. Gregg Bleakney’s dream was to travel the Americas (美洲) from top to bottom. He got the idea after he finished a 1,600-kilometer bike ride alone. Gregg’s friend Brooks Allen was also a cyclist (自行车骑手). The two friends talked and decided on their goal: they would travel from Alaska to Argentina—by bike. To pay for the journey, Gregg and Brooks worked and saved money for years. In 2015, after four years of planning, they set off. Once they were on the road, they often camped outdoors or stayed in hostels (旅社). In many places on their way, local people opened their homes to the two friends and gave them food. During their trip, Gregg and Brooks cycled through deserts, rain forests, and mountains. They visited modern cities and ancient ruins, such as Tikal in Guatemala. In many places, they met other cyclists from all over the world. Gregg and Brooks kept a record of their adventures in an online blog. The trip taught both men a lot about traveling. Here is some of Gregg’s advice. ●Travel light. The less baggage (行李) you have, the less you’ll worry about. ●Be flexible. Don’t plan everything. You’ll be more relaxed and happy even when there are challenges along the way. ●Be polite. As one traveler told Gregg, “Always remember that nobody wants to fight or cheat a nice guy.” 21. When did Gregg get the idea to travel the Americas? A. After finishing a long bike ride with his friend. B. After meeting other cyclists around the world. C. After riding the bike for 1,600 kilometers himself. D. After four years of planning with his friend. 22. What did Gregg and Brooks cycle through during their trip? A. Deserts and lakes. B. Rain forests and deserts. C. Mountains and seas. D. Rain forests and lakes. 23. Which statement would Gregg most likely agree with? A. It’s important to bring as much baggage as possible. B. When you travel, only stay in hotels with people you know. C. Learning how to show thanks or say sorry is necessary. D. You need to prepare everything to get ready in a better way. 24. In which part of a magazine can you read this passage? A. Travel and adventure. B. Amazing animals. C. City life. D. Stories and story tellers. B Many people say dolphins are intelligent. They seem to be able to think, understand, and learn things quickly. But are they as smart as humans, or are they more like cats and dogs? Dolphins use their brains quite differently from the way people do. But scientists say dolphins and humans are similar in some ways. How? ____________ Like humans, every dolphin has its own “name”. The name is a special whistle (哨子声). Each dolphin chooses a whistle for itself, usually by its first birthday. Dolphins are like people in other ways, too. They “talk” to each other about a lot of things—such as their age, their feelings, and possible danger. They also use a system of sounds and body language to communicate. Understanding dolphin conversation is not easy for humans. No one “speaks dolphin” yet, but some scientists are trying to learn. Play Dolphins live in groups called pods, and they often join other dolphins from different pods to play games and have fun-just like people. Sometimes they chase other dolphins carrying objects and throw these objects back and forth. Scientists believe playing together is something only intelligent animals do. Teamwork Dolphins and humans are similar in another way: They both make plans for getting things they want. In the seas of southern Brazil, for example, dolphins use an intelligent method to get food. When there are fish near a boat, dolphins signal to the fishermen to put their nets in the water. With the dolphins’ help, the men can catch a lot of fish. Why do dolphins help the men? There is an advantage for the dolphins: They get to eat some of the fish that escape from the net. 25. Why does the writer mention cats and dogs in Paragraph 1? A. To show cats and dogs are very intelligent. B. To tell us there are different levels of intelligence. C. To show cats and dogs are more intelligent than humans. D. To tell us humans and animals are similar in intelligence. 26 What’s the best title for Paragraph 2? A. Communication B. Names C. Dangers D. Feelings 27. How does the writer develop his idea in Paragraph 4? A. By telling a story. B. By explaining the result. C. By comparing differences. D. By giving an example. 28 What’s the purpose of writing the passage? A. To introduce some habits of dolphins and humans. B. To show how dolphins get food from humans wisely. C. To tell the differences between dolphins and humans. D. To show some similarities between dolphins and humans. C It was a quiet evening at Styles Court, a grand old house in the English countryside. The villagers were in the living room after dinner, enjoying tea and conversation. Among them was Hercule Poirot, a famous Belgian detective (侦探), who was invited to stay at the house by his friend John Cavendish. Suddenly, people heard a loud shout from upstairs. Everyone rushed to the noise and found Mrs. Inglethorp, the old mistress (女主人) of the house, lying on the floor of her bedroom. Beside her was a broken cup and a small bottle with the word “Strychnine”—a deadly poison (毒药). Poirot quickly took control. He checked the room carefully, noticing that the window was half open and a set of footprints led to the bed. He also found a piece of paper in the rubbish bin with the words “Meet me at the garden at midnight” written on it. The next morning, Mrs. Inglethorp died in the hospital. The doctor was sure that she was poisoned. Some people said her husband, Alfred Inglethorp, poisoned her. However, Poirot didn’t think so. He noticed that Alfred had a strong alibi—he was seen in the village at the time of the poisoning. Besides, Poirot discovered that John Cavendish, Mrs. Inglethorp’s stepson, was in trouble and needed money. He also learned that Cynthia Murdoch, a young woman staying at the house, could get the poison because she worked in a hospital. As Poirot put together all the things, he realized that the criminal tried to frame (陷害) Alfred Inglethorp. But who was the real killer? Poirot’s smart mind was already forming a plan. —Adapted from The Mysterious Affair at Styles 29. Why did Hercule Poirot come to Styles Court? A. To look for a criminal B. To visit his friend C. To attend a party D. To find a job 30. Which of the following is the correct order of the events? a. Mrs. Inglethorp was found poisoned in her bedroom. b. Poirot noticed some clues in the bedroom. c.

C. These results fully show a further ________ of his outstanding ability. D. As a general ________ vegetable oils are better for you than animal fats. 32. According to the passage, what will most likely happen next in the story? A. Alfred Inglethorp will be caught for the crime. B. John Cavendish will run away from Styles Court. C. Poirot will find the real killer and solve the case. D. Cynthia Murdoch will be responsible for the killing. D ①In recent years, scientists have been working on a breaking technology that could change the way we think about solar (太阳能的) energy: solar paint. Unlike traditional solar panels (板), which are huge and expensive, solar paint is a lightweight material that can be painted on almost any surface. This creation could turn the whole buildings into energy providers, making green energy much more available than ever before. ②Solar paint works by using tiny particles called photovoltaic cells (光伏电池), which take in sunlight and change it into electricity. These cells are mixed into a liquid solution (溶液) that can be brushed onto walls, doors, or even windows. Once brushed, the paint begins to produce power at once. ③One of the most exciting things of solar paint is its potential (潜力) to cut carbon emissions (碳排放). Traditional energy like coal and oil is the main cause for climate change. By covering buildings with solar paint, cities could greatly cut their dependence on traditional energy and move closer to a green future. ④Researchers believe that a single coat of solar paint could produce enough energy to power a small household equipment. ⑤________. Now, solar paint is less efficient than traditional solar panels, and it is more expensive to produce. Scientists are working to improve its efficiency and lower costs, but it may take several years before solar paint becomes widely available. ⑥Although there are such challenges, the potential of solar paint is unstoppable. As technology develops, it could become a key tool in the fight against climate change, deeply changing the way we power our homes and cities. 33. What is the main material of solar paint that allows it to produce electricity? A. Liquid solution. B. Photovoltaic cells. C. Traditional solar panels. D. Sunlight that’s taken in. 34. What can be inferred from the passage? A. Climate change can be stopped by using solar paint. B. Cities don’t need to use traditional energy any more. C. It is not yet ready for the wide use of solar paint. D. Solar paint is less efficient than traditional energy. 35. Which of the following can be put into the ________? A. However, there are still some challenges to overcome B. Solar paint is also praised for some other advantages C. The power energy produced by solar paint can help us live a low-cost life D. The efficiency and price make solar paint much popular around the world 36. What’s the best structure of the passage? A. B. C. D. 第二节（每小题2分，共10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。 Is there a connection between music and language? According to recent studies, the answer is yes: ____37____ Here are two examples. Music and Hearing A study from Northwestern University shows that playing a musical instrument can improve a person’s hearing ability. As a part of the study, two groups of people listened to a person talking in a noisy room. The people in the first group were musicians, while those in the second group had no musical training. ____38____ Musicians hear better because they learn to pay attention to certain sounds. Think about violinists in an orchestra (管弦乐队). ____39____ But the violinists must listen closely to what they are playing, and pay no attention to the other sounds. In this way, musicians are able to concentrate on (专注于) certain sounds, even in a room with lots of noise. Music and Speech Gottfried Schlaug, a doctor at Harvard Medical School, works with stroke (中风) patients. Because of their illness, these people cannot say their names, addresses, or other information normally. ____40____ Dr. Schlaug was surprised to find that singing words helped his patients finally speak. ____41____ Schlaug isn’t sure. Music seems to activate different parts of the brain. This helps patients use those parts of the brain again. A. However, they can still sing. B. Can music help sick people get better? C. Music improves certain language abilities in the brain. D. So music is not only enjoyable but also good for us in many other ways. E. The musicians were able to hear the talking person more clearly. F. Why does this work? G. When playing with the group, they hear their own instrument and others, too. 第Ⅱ卷（共50分） V.任务型阅读（70~71小题，每小题2分；72~73小题，每小题3分，共10分） 阅读下文并回答问题。 “Study with me” livestreams (直播), a new way of learning, are rising online these days. In these livestreams, livestreamers (主播) usually point their cameras at their desks, showing their study routines to viewers, who can study along with the livestreamers in videos. Zhang Qiuyang, a girl from Chengdu, Sichuan province, was a fan of “study with me” livestreams. “When I feel something as difficult—like studying—I become anxious and don’t want to start,” she explained. “However, watching someone else actively work on that task through a video helped me realize that it was not as challenging as I imagined.” About a year and a half ago, Zhang began creating her own videos in this area. She has got nearly 30, 000 followers on the video-sharing website Bilibili by the end of 2024. Through this process, she discovered even greater benefits. For example, as a “study with me” livestreamer, she has to set specific times for each study task and regulates (调节) her study time using a timer. “I need to offer a clear timetable to my fans and finish the task on time” Zhang explained. “In the past I never thought about such a way of using time.” Besides, “Whether you are the livestreamer or viewers, when you realize that many people around the world are experiencing similar challenges, you understand you are not fighting alone and it gives you strength to keep going,” she said. After livestreaming, Zhang also paid special attention to the messages and comments from other viewers, many of whom shared opinions and study schedules. “Many comments are really helpful for the livestreamers’ study.” However, not everyone enjoys learning with livestreamers. Wang Xia, a 16-year-old high school student from Chongqing No.8 Secondary School, is not interested in such livestreams at all. He said, “___________” 42.
