They just read or do schoolwork there.”可知，空处应是可以读书和做作业的地方，备选词library“图书馆”符合语境，故填填library。 【64题详解】 句意：芬兰人口约550万，拥有200多万个桑拿房。根据“Finland has a population of about 5.5 million”可知，空处指芬兰，用it指代前面的Finland，故填it。 【65题详解】 句意：洗桑拿对健康很有好处，也很放松。根据“Taking saunas is quite good....health”可知，此处指对健康有益，be good for“对……有益”，故填for。 【66题详解】 句意：人们还喜欢到户外活动，从他们的40个国家公园到不同的岛屿。根据“from their 40 national parks to different islands”可知，此处指喜欢去户外，go outdoors“去户外”，故填outdoors。 【67题详解】 句意：在冬季人们的生活没有太大变化，因为那里的人们不怕寒冷的日子，仍然骑自行车到处走。根据“because people there are not afraid of the cold days and still get around on bicycles.”可知，冬天人们仍然外出活动，所以应是说生活没有太大变化，change“变化”， doesn’t后跟动词原形。故填change。 【68题详解】 句意：对于他们来说，冬天只是意味着活动，比如越野滑雪、滑冰和狗拉雪橇。分析句子可知，空处缺少谓语动词，根据“winter just... activities, such as cross-country skiing, ice skating, and dog sledding (雪橇)”及备选词可知，应是说冬季意味着活动，mean“意味着”，主语是winter，时态是一般现在时，所以谓语动词第三人称单数。故填means。 【69题详解】 句意：这就是为什么芬兰人拥有强烈的幸福感。根据第二、三、四段的论述可知，讲述了“芬兰人拥有强烈幸福感的原因”，That’s why...“那就是为什么……”，固定句型。故填why。 六、书面表达 70. 你对英语周的辩论赛印象特别深刻，根据以下提示，向Mike分享你的想法。 英语周辩论赛主题： Is memory the key factor in English learning? 其他人的观点 支持：记忆力好能背大量词汇。 反对：讲究方法才能学好英语。 你的观点 (请补充) 参考词汇：debate 辩论赛；key factor 关键因素 注意： 1. 文中必须包含所有内容要点，请适当发挥； 2. 词数80个左右，短文的开头和结尾已给出，不计入词数； 3. 不得透露学校、姓名等任何个人信息，否则不予评分。 Dear Mike, During our English Week, we had a debate on “Is memory the key factor in English learning?” ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ I had a good time in the English week. What do you think about it? Li Hua 【答案】例文 Dear Mike, During our English Week, we had a debate on “Is memory the key factor in English learning?” I’m writing to share my unforgettable experience with you. Some students thought a good memory helps memorize numerous words, which is essential for English learning. However, others believed learning methods are more important. They said proper ways like watching English movies and reading English stories can improve English comprehensively. In my opinion, both memory and methods are crucial. Memory helps us store knowledge, while methods guide us to use it effectively. Only by combining them can we truly master English. I had a good time in the English week. What do you think about it? I’m looking forward to hearing from you.

A little boy always thought he was the unluckiest child in the world because he had polio (小儿麻痹症). He seldom played games with his classmates and was silent in class. One spring, the boy’s father got some seedlings (树苗). He asked each of his children to plant one. He said to the children, “I will buy a favourite gift for the child whose seedling grows best.” So every child tried their best. The little boy also wanted to get his father’s gift. But when he saw his brothers and sisters happily carrying water to water the trees, he felt disappointed. So after watering it once or twice, he never took care of it again. A few days later, when the little boy went to see his tree, he was surprised to find his seedling grew better than his brothers’ and sisters’. The father kept his promise and bought the little boy a gift he liked best, and said the boy would become an excellent botanist (植物学家) in the future. Since then, the little boy became confident. One night, the little boy lay in bed but couldn’t fall asleep. He suddenly remembered what the biology teacher had said: plants usually grow at night. Why not go to see the tree? When he went out, he found his father watering his tree. Suddenly, he understood everything. His father had helped him take care of his tree! Years passed. The little boy didn’t become a botanist, he became the President of the United States. His name is Franklin Roosevelt. 56. Why did the boy think he was the unluckiest child? A. Because he was poor. B. Because he had polio. C. Because he had no friends. D. Because he didn’t like his classmates. 57. What did the father promise to do? A. To help the children take care of the trees. B. To buy a gift for the child who planted the most trees. C. To buy a gift for the child whose seedling grew best. D. To take the children to the park if they planted the trees well. 58. Why did the father help the boy take care of his tree? A Because he didn’t want the boy to be sad. B. Because he wanted the boy to become a botanist. C. Because he wanted to win the game himself. D. Because he thought the boy was too young to take care of the tree. 59. What can we infer (推断) from the passage? A. The boy’s father didn’t like him. B. The boy became a botanist in the end. C. The boy’s brothers and sisters were jealous of him.
