Hyssna Trail, Sweden West Sweden’s quiet beauty is the star of the show on this 40-kilometer, two-day hike. The round trail starts at Hyssna’s12th century church, which can be accessed by bus from Gothenburg in just 40 minutes. The route is well guided, with plenty of picnic spots and a well appointed camp site. Karhunkierros Trall, Finland Finnish Lapland is well-known as a winter destination, with magical aurora borealis (极光) and an amazing ancient Sami culture. It’s also home to the 82-kilometer Karhunkierros Trail, the most well-known long-distance walk in Finland. The path begins in Hautajarvi village in Lapland’s Salla and ends at the Rukatunturi Fell in Kuusamo, taking four days. King Charles III England Coastal Path, England Covering an area of 4, 300 kilometers, the England Coastal Path is a lifetime’s attempt for those who wish to cover every step. And it can be easily broken down into areas, with northwest, northeast, east, southeast and southwest regions to explore. Walking around the coast of Cornwall will leave anyone energetic. Slovenian Mountain Trail, Slovenia It’s no surprise that the Slovenia Mountain Trail has become so popular. This attractive trail covering some 616 kilometers runs from Maribor in the country’s northeast, all the way to Ankaran. And while doing it all together over 28 days might seem extreme, it can be broken into smaller regions. There are paths through the ancient forests and wetlands of the Pohorje Hills or across the Julian Alos. 21. Which trail covers the shortest distance? A. Hyssna Trail. B. Karhunkierros Trail. C. King Charles III England Coastal Path D. Slovenian Mountain Trail. 22. What can be done along the trail of Finland? A. Going on a bus tour. B. Hiking around the coast. C. Admiring the Sami culture. D. Exploring ancient forests. 23. What do the England Coastal Path and the Slovenia Mountain Trail have in common? A. They share a similar landscape. B. They are located in the same country. C. They can be broken into small regions. D. They are famous as winter destinations. B One week after I started working in Beijing, I decided to visit a place of interest called the Summer Palace. Before setting off, I researched it on the Internet. The Summer Palace is composed mostly of a lake, but it’s surrounded by beautiful greenery and a walkway that circles the lake. It is recommended that you give the Summer Palace about three hours. If you try to walk around it, it could take five or six hours. With that knowledge of it, I set off. The highlight of the tour had to be the view from the Tower of Buddhist Incense. It sits on the top of a large hill overlooking the lake and is worth a climb. It was built as a place to worship the Buddha. And in the Summer Palace, unlike in most of other places, photography isn’t allowed in most of the buildings. Pictures of most of the Buddhas and the other artifacts are off⁃limits for photographers. Another highlight was seeing the stage created for the Dowager Empress where she watched operas and other theater items. There are box seats that surround the stage and it was the largest stage created in Imperial China. You could almost imagine royalty reviewing the actors from the boxes and the stage. I do recommend taking a boat ride if you go, which takes you from one side of the lake to the other side where you can see another set of buildings. And it is fun. You can also rent an electric boat or paddleboat if you want. But since it was just me, I went aboard one of the biggest boats with other people. I spent another four hours wandering around the Summer Palace. But I didn’t see all of it because it was getting dark. How I wish I could visit it again. 24. What did the author do before setting off for the Summer Palace? A. Asked others about it. B. Learned something about it. C. Spent three hours researching it. D. Rented a boat. 25. What does the underlined word “off⁃limits” in Paragraph 2 probably mean? A. Forbidden. B. Allowed. C. Charged. D. Limited. 26. What do we know about the stage mentioned in the text? A. It sits on the top of a hill. B. It is the largest stage all over China. C. It was for royalty to watch performances. D. Operas are performed there at times. 27. Which of the following correctly describes the author’s tour? A. She took a boat by herself. B. She spent four hours in the Summer Palace. C. She didn’t enjoy the trip because it was too late. D. She only toured part of the Summer Palace. C In recent years, a new trend has emerged among young travelers in Japan who are increasingly opting for “off-the-beaten-path” destinations instead of flocking to famous tourist spots. This phenomenon, known as counter-tourism, is gaining popularity as it offers tourists a chance to explore quieter and less commercialized areas. Data from a major online travel agency reveals that bookings for accommodations in lesser-known towns increased by 25% year-on-year during the holiday season. Moreover, reservations for boutique hotels in these locations surged by at least fivefold. Lesser-known attractions saw significant growth, with some reporting over 20% more visitors compared to the previous year. For example, the serene countryside of Shimane Prefecture welcomed approximately 30,000 visitors over seven days, marking a 17% increase year-over-year. Travelers are choosing these quieter locales not only to avoid crowded places but also to enjoy lower costs and experience genuine local culture. In contrast to popular tourist hotspots, which can be overly commercialized, these hidden gems offer more authentic experiences and natural encounters. Additionally, changes in travel preferences reflect a growing desire among tourists for deeper relaxation and meaningful engagement with their surroundings. The ongoing impact of environmental concerns and sustainability efforts also plays a role in this shift. Travelers are becoming more conscious of their ecological footprint and prefer destinations that promote sustainable tourism practices. As a result, they are more likely to choose eco-friendly accommodations and activities. An editorial in the Tokyo Times noted that the rise of counter-tourism could have positive implications for both tourists and the industry. It encourages diversity in travel options and forces traditional tourist hubs to innovate and improve their offerings. More importantly, it helps distribute economic benefits more evenly across different regions. Professor Sato, a tourism expert, suggests that to fully capitalize on this trend, greater emphasis should be placed on developing unique local experiences and promoting lesser-known cultural heritage sites. Highlighting regional traditions and fostering community involvement are key strategies for enhancing the appeal of off-the-beaten-path destinations. 28. What do the statistics in paragraph 2 indicate? A. The success of travel agencies in Japan. B. The profitability of hotels during holidays. C. The contribution of tourism to the economy. D. The rising trend of counter-tourism in Japan. 29. What is the fundamental reason behind the emergence of counter-tourism? A. Environmental awareness. B. Changing travel preferences. C. Lower travel costs. D. Lack of innovation in well-known attractions. 30. How does the Tokyo Times view counter-tourism? A. It will decline as environmental concerns diminish. B. It benefits both tourists and the tourism market. C. It enhances the spread of local culture to tourists. D. It hinders the development of popular tourist spots. 31. According to Professor Sato, what advice is given for developing the tourism market? A. Improving infrastructure in tourist areas. B. Enhancing management rules for tourist attractions. C. Exploring the potential and uniqueness of lesser-known attractions. D. Promoting local characteristics through social media D Boxing has been practiced for centuries — it was even one of the sports in the original Olympic Games in ancient Greece. More recently, boxing has become the mainstream in the UK, with hundreds of thousands of people from all walks of life participating in the sport every week. But why? The answer lies in the physical, mental and even social benefits boxing can bring. Its physical benefits are clear. Whether it’s practicing with a punching bag (沙袋) or a partner or facing an opponent in the ring, boxing can be an intense form of exercise and give a full-body workout. It can improve muscular strength, and it can also increase fitness — allowing someone to work out harder, for longer. These can, in turn, have a positive impact on other aspects of physical well-being, like heart health and weight management. But the high physical demands of the sport aren’t just good for the body — boxing can also have a positive impact on someone’s mental well-being. Dr Jessica Pinchbeck, Senior Lecturer in Sport and Fitness at the Open University, says that boxing can mitigate some of the symptoms of anxiety and depression. Exercising regularly is already widely known to be good for mental health, but boxing can also bring a sense of discipline and focus. And there is a third benefit of putting on the boxing gloves. Practicing punches can be done alone, of course, but boxing is not just an individual activity — it also involves working with others to train and stay safe. Dr Gavin Williams, Senior Lecturer in Education at the Open University, says that this cooperation and team work can create a sense of identity and belonging. So, no matter what the reason that attracts someone to boxing, the interactive elements of the sport mean it can also have profound social benefits. Good for body, mind and social interactions? It’s not surprising that more and more people are stepping into the ring. 32. How does the author develop the passage? A. By giving examples. B. By making suggestions. C. By listing reasons. D. By answering questions. 33. What does the underlined word “mitigate ”in Paragraph 3 mean? A. Change. B. Determine. C. Control. D. Reduce. 34. What would be the best choice according to Dr Gavin Williams? A. Practicing boxing in the ring. B. Practicing boxing with a partner. C. Practicing boxing on your own. D. Practicing boxing with a punching bag. 35. What would be the best title for the text? A. The benefits of boxing B. Boxing leads to great teamwork C. The ways to practice boxing D. Boxing does good to your health 七选五 When you’re meeting someone for the first time, you want to leave him or her a good impression. ___36___ However, it’s not just your mouth doing the talking — the way you hold yourself is just as important. Here are some tips on body language to show positivity and kindness in communication with others. Nod and smile when appropriate.

I was there, not by choice, but because teacher Alice wanted each of us to try out for a part. As a “good” student, I did what I was asked, even if it was scary. I was small for my age, wore secondhand clothes and cried easily. At school, I was often the object of jokes and laughter and had few friends. I wanted desperately to shrink back into my seat and be invisible. But there I was, on stage. Reading was, at least, something I loved. So, I read. I finished reading and rushed back to my seat. The spell was broken. I wanted to curl up and disappear. When the teacher read the cast list and called my name, I wasn’t paying attention. No one ever chose me for anything. “Patty,” she repeated, “you are Star. Come and get your script.” This is impossible! How can it be? With a pounding heart and cold, sweaty hands, I felt nearly dizzy, but incredibly happy. I walked up unsteadily to get the papers. On returning to my desk, I felt regretful. I should have refused. I felt as if everyone else were looking at and laughing at me. I buried my head in my arms. Gently patting my shoulder, teacher Alice said, “Be confident, Patty. You can do this. I know you can. I’ll help you.” With tears in my eyes, I raised my head and nodded firmly. So, I practiced every day — while walking to school, at lunchtime, before bedtime, even on weekends. At first, I was worried about forgetting parts of a long monologue that took place in one scene, but I managed to memorize it. I felt more confident after that.

And the bus is free. Now, don’t forget that we’re going on March 4th. Mrs. Philips, the school secretary, is away this week, so take your money to Mr. Gifford. He works in the office, too. I’m afraid you’ll have to get up early that day because you have to be at school at 7:30 a.m. The bus is leaving at 7:45 a.m. and I want you all to be at school 15 minutes before that. At the castle, I’ll give you a piece of paper with questions on it and a pen to fill it out with. You should try to answer all the questions on it. And one last thing: the castle doesn’t have a café or a restaurant, so you’ll probably get hungry. Don’t forget to bring a lunch! 二、阅读理解（每小题2.5分，共50分） A Europe’s Best Long-Distance Hiking Trails These hikes on some of Europe’s best long distance trails (路线) offer a chance to reconnect with the world, get some energetic exercise and enjoy peaceful moments in some of the Europe’s most beautiful scenery. Hyssna Trail, Sweden West Sweden’s quiet beauty is the star of the show on this 40-kilometer, two-day hike. The round trail starts at Hyssna’s12th century church, which can be accessed by bus from Gothenburg in just 40 minutes. The route is well guided, with plenty of picnic spots and a well appointed camp site. Karhunkierros Trall, Finland Finnish Lapland is well-known as a winter destination, with magical aurora borealis (极光) and an amazing ancient Sami culture. It’s also home to the 82-kilometer Karhunkierros Trail, the most well-known long-distance walk in Finland. The path begins in Hautajarvi village in Lapland’s Salla and ends at the Rukatunturi Fell in Kuusamo, taking four days. King Charles III England Coastal Path, England Covering an area of 4, 300 kilometers, the England Coastal Path is a lifetime’s attempt for those who wish to cover every step. And it can be easily broken down into areas, with northwest, northeast, east, southeast and southwest regions to explore. Walking around the coast of Cornwall will leave anyone energetic. Slovenian Mountain Trail, Slovenia It’s no surprise that the Slovenia Mountain Trail has become so popular. This attractive trail covering some 616 kilometers runs from Maribor in the country’s northeast, all the way to Ankaran. And while doing it all together over 28 days might seem extreme, it can be broken into smaller regions. There are paths through the ancient forests and wetlands of the Pohorje Hills or across the Julian Alos. 21. Which trail covers the shortest distance? A. Hyssna Trail. B. Karhunkierros Trail. C. King Charles III England Coastal Path D. Slovenian Mountain Trail. 22. What can be done along the trail of Finland? A. Going on a bus tour. B. Hiking around the coast. C. Admiring the Sami culture. D. Exploring ancient forests. 23. What do the England Coastal Path and the Slovenia Mountain Trail have in common? A. They share a similar landscape. B. They are located in the same country. C. They can be broken into small regions. D. They are famous as winter destinations. 【答案】21. A 22. C 23. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇应用文。文章主要几条欧洲最佳长途徒步路线。 【21题详解】 细节理解题。根据Hyssna Trail, Sweden部分中的“West Sweden’s quiet beauty is the star of the show on this 40-kilometer, two-day hike. (瑞典西部的静谧之美是这趟为期两天、全长 40 公里的徒步旅行的亮点。)”， Karhunkierros Trall, Finland部分中的“It’s also home to the 82-kilometer Karhunkierros Trail, the most well-known long-distance walk in Finland.(这里也是 82 公里长的 Karhunkierros 步道的所在地，这是芬兰最著名的长距离步道。)”， King Charles III England Coastal Path, England部分中的“Covering an area of 4, 300 kilometers, the England Coastal Path is a lifetime’s attempt for those who wish to cover every step. (英格兰海岸步道覆盖 4300 公里，对于那些希望走遍每一步的人来说，这是一生的尝试)”和Slovenian Mountain Trail, Slovenia部分中的“This attractive trail covering some 616 kilometers runs from Maribor in the country’s northeast, all the way to Ankaran. (这条迷人的路线全长约 616 公里，从该国东北部的马里博尔一直延伸到安卡兰)”可知，Hyssna Trail这条路径距离最短，故选A。 【22题详解】 细节理解题。根据Karhunkierros Trall, Finland部分中的“Finnish Lapland is well-known as a winter destination, with magical aurora borealis (极光) and an amazing ancient Sami culture.(芬兰拉普兰是著名的冬季旅游胜地，拥有神奇的北极光和令人惊叹的古老萨米文化。)”可知，在芬兰的徒步路线可以欣赏萨米文化，故选C。 【23题详解】 细节理解题。根据King Charles III England Coastal Path, England部分中的“ And it can be easily broken down into areas, with northwest, northeast, east, southeast and southwest regions to explore(而且它可以轻松地划分为区域，包括西北、东北、东部、东南和西南地区可供探索。)”和Slovenian Mountain Trail, Slovenia部分中的“And while doing it all together over 28 days might seem extreme, it can be broken into smaller regions(虽然在 28 天内完成所有工作似乎有些极端，但可以将其分成几个较小的区域)”可知，英格兰海岸步道和斯洛文尼亚山地步道的共同点是它们可以被分成小的区域。故选C。 B One week after I started working in Beijing, I decided to visit a place of interest called the Summer Palace. Before setting off, I researched it on the Internet. The Summer Palace is composed mostly of a lake, but it’s surrounded by beautiful greenery and a walkway that circles the lake. It is recommended that you give the Summer Palace about three hours. If you try to walk around it, it could take five or six hours. With that knowledge of it, I set off. The highlight of the tour had to be the view from the Tower of Buddhist Incense. It sits on the top of a large hill overlooking the lake and is worth a climb. It was built as a place to worship the Buddha. And in the Summer Palace, unlike in most of other places, photography isn’t allowed in most of the buildings. Pictures of most of the Buddhas and the other artifacts are off⁃limits for photographers. Another highlight was seeing the stage created for the Dowager Empress where she watched operas and other theater items. There are box seats that surround the stage and it was the largest stage created in Imperial China. You could almost imagine royalty reviewing the actors from the boxes and the stage. I do recommend taking a boat ride if you go, which takes you from one side of the lake to the other side where you can see another set of buildings. And it is fun. You can also rent an electric boat or paddleboat if you want. But since it was just me, I went aboard one of the biggest boats with other people. I spent another four hours wandering around the Summer Palace. But I didn’t see all of it because it was getting dark. How I wish I could visit it again. 24. What did the author do before setting off for the Summer Palace? A. Asked others about it. B. Learned something about it. C. Spent three hours researching it. D. Rented a boat. 25. What does the underlined word “off⁃limits” in Paragraph 2 probably mean? A. Forbidden. B. Allowed. C. Charged. D. Limited. 26. What do we know about the stage mentioned in the text? A. It sits on the top of a hill. B. It is the largest stage all over China. C. It was for royalty to watch performances. D. Operas are performed there at times. 27. Which of the following correctly describes the author’s tour? A. She took a boat by herself. B. She spent four hours in the Summer Palace. C. She didn’t enjoy the trip because it was too late. D. She only toured part of the Summer Palace. 【答案】24. B 25. A 26. C 27. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章记叙了作者游玩北京颐和园的经历，事先了解了信息，然后参观了必看的佛香阁、德和园戏台，并乘船欣赏了昆明湖。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“Before setting off, I researched it on the Internet.”（出发前，我在网上查了一下。）可知，作者在出发前上网了解了一些颐和园的情况。故选B。 【25题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第二段中“And in the Summer Palace, unlike in most of other places, photography isn’t allowed in most of the buildings. Pictures of most of the Buddhas and the other artifacts are off⁃limits for photographers.”（不像其他地方，在颐和园大多数建筑都不允许拍照。大多数佛像和其他文物的照片都是摄影师的off⁃limits。）可知，颐和园的大多数建筑不允许拍照，由此推知，位于建筑中的佛像和手工艺品大多也禁止拍照，因此off-limits与forbidden意思相近。故选A。 【26题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“Another highlight was seeing the stage created for the Dowager Empress where she watched operas and other theater items.”（另一个亮点是看到了为慈禧太后创造的戏台，她在那里观看戏曲和其他剧场节目。）可知，戏台是给皇室看戏剧等演出的。故选C。 【27题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段中“But I didn’t see all of it because it was getting dark. How I wish I could visit it again.”（但我没有全部看完，因为天黑了。我多么希望能再去一次。）可知，因为天快黑了，作者没能欣赏到颐和园的全部景观，只参观了颐和园的一部分。故选D。 C In recent years, a new trend has emerged among young travelers in Japan who are increasingly opting for “off-the-beaten-path” destinations instead of flocking to famous tourist spots. This phenomenon, known as counter-tourism, is gaining popularity as it offers tourists a chance to explore quieter and less commercialized areas. Data from a major online travel agency reveals that bookings for accommodations in lesser-known towns increased by 25% year-on-year during the holiday season. Moreover, reservations for boutique hotels in these locations surged by at least fivefold. Lesser-known attractions saw significant growth, with some reporting over 20% more visitors compared to the previous year. For example, the serene countryside of Shimane Prefecture welcomed approximately 30,000 visitors over seven days, marking a 17% increase year-over-year. Travelers are choosing these quieter locales not only to avoid crowded places but also to enjoy lower costs and experience genuine local culture. In contrast to popular tourist hotspots, which can be overly commercialized, these hidden gems offer more authentic experiences and natural encounters. Additionally, changes in travel preferences reflect a growing desire among tourists for deeper relaxation and meaningful engagement with their surroundings. The ongoing impact of environmental concerns and sustainability efforts also plays a role in this shift. Travelers are becoming more conscious of their ecological footprint and prefer destinations that promote sustainable tourism practices. As a result, they are more likely to choose eco-friendly accommodations and activities. An editorial in the Tokyo Times noted that the rise of counter-tourism could have positive implications for both tourists and the industry. It encourages diversity in travel options and forces traditional tourist hubs to innovate and improve their offerings. More importantly, it helps distribute economic benefits more evenly across different regions. Professor Sato, a tourism expert, suggests that to fully capitalize on this trend, greater emphasis should be placed on developing unique local experiences and promoting lesser-known cultural heritage sites. Highlighting regional traditions and fostering community involvement are key strategies for enhancing the appeal of off-the-beaten-path destinations. 28. What do the statistics in paragraph 2 indicate? A. The success of travel agencies in Japan. B. The profitability of hotels during holidays. C. The contribution of tourism to the economy. D. The rising trend of counter-tourism in Japan. 29. What is the fundamental reason behind the emergence of counter-tourism? A. Environmental awareness. B. Changing travel preferences. C. Lower travel costs. D. Lack of innovation in well-known attractions. 30. How does the Tokyo Times view counter-tourism? A. It will decline as environmental concerns diminish. B. It benefits both tourists and the tourism market. C. It enhances the spread of local culture to tourists. D. It hinders the development of popular tourist spots. 31. According to Professor Sato, what advice is given for developing the tourism market? A. Improving infrastructure in tourist areas. B. Enhancing management rules for tourist attractions. C. Exploring the potential and uniqueness of lesser-known attractions. D. Promoting local characteristics through social media 【答案】28. D 29. B 30. B 31. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章指出近年来，日本年轻游客中兴起了一种“反向旅游”趋势，他们更倾向于选择人迹罕至的目的地，而非热门景点，以享受更安静、低成本和真实的当地文化体验。 【28题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“Data from a major online travel agency reveals that bookings for accommodations in lesser-known towns increased by 25% year-on-year during the holiday season. Moreover, reservations for boutique hotels in these locations surged by at least fivefold. Lesser-known attractions saw significant growth, with some reporting over 20% more visitors compared to the previous year. For example, the serene countryside of Shimane Prefecture welcomed approximately 30,000 visitors over seven days, marking a 17% increase year-over-year. (一家大型在线旅行社的数据显示，在假期期间，知名度较低的小镇的住宿预订量同比增长了25%。此外，这些地区的精品酒店预订量至少增长了五倍。冷门景点的游客数量也显著增加，一些景点的游客数量同比增长超过20%。例如，岛根县宁静的乡村在七天内接待了约30000名游客，同比增长了17%)”可推知，这些数据表明，越来越多的游客选择“冷门”目的地，反映了日本“反向旅游”趋势的兴起。故选D项。 【29题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“Travelers are choosing these quieter locales not only to avoid crowded places but also to enjoy lower costs and experience genuine local culture. (旅行者选择这些较为安静的地方，不仅是为了避开拥挤的场所，也是为了享受更低的成本并体验真正的当地文化)”和“Additionally, changes in travel preferences reflect a growing desire among tourists for deeper relaxation and meaningful engagement with their surroundings. (此外，旅行偏好的变化反映了游客对更深层次放松和与周围环境有意义互动的日益增长的需求)”可知，“反向旅游”出现的根本原因是旅行偏好的改变。故选B项。 【30题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段中“An editorial in the Tokyo Times noted that the rise of counter-tourism could have positive implications for both tourists and the industry. (《东京时报》的一篇社论指出，“反向旅游”趋势的兴起对游客和旅游业都可能产生积极的影响)”可知，《东京时报》认为“反向旅游”趋势对游客和旅游业都有积极影响。故选B项。 【31题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段中“Professor Sato, a tourism expert, suggests that to fully capitalize on this trend, greater emphasis should be placed on developing unique local experiences and promoting lesser-known cultural heritage sites. (旅游专家Sato教授建议，为了充分利用这一趋势，应更加注重开发独特的本地体验，并推广鲜为人知的文化遗产地)”可知，为了发展旅游市场，Sato教授建议探索冷门景点的潜力和独特性。故选C项。 D Boxing has been practiced for centuries — it was even one of the sports in the original Olympic Games in ancient Greece. More recently, boxing has become the mainstream in the UK, with hundreds of thousands of people from all walks of life participating in the sport every week. But why? The answer lies in the physical, mental and even social benefits boxing can bring. Its physical benefits are clear. Whether it’s practicing with a punching bag (沙袋) or a partner or facing an opponent in the ring, boxing can be an intense form of exercise and give a full-body workout. It can improve muscular strength, and it can also increase fitness — allowing someone to work out harder, for longer. These can, in turn, have a positive impact on other aspects of physical well-being, like heart health and weight management. But the high physical demands of the sport aren’t just good for the body — boxing can also have a positive impact on someone’s mental well-being. Dr Jessica Pinchbeck, Senior Lecturer in Sport and Fitness at the Open University, says that boxing can mitigate some of the symptoms of anxiety and depression. Exercising regularly is already widely known to be good for mental health, but boxing can also bring a sense of discipline and focus. And there is a third benefit of putting on the boxing gloves. Practicing punches can be done alone, of course, but boxing is not just an individual activity — it also involves working with others to train and stay safe. Dr Gavin Williams, Senior Lecturer in Education at the Open University, says that this cooperation and team work can create a sense of identity and belonging. So, no matter what the reason that attracts someone to boxing, the interactive elements of the sport mean it can also have profound social benefits. Good for body, mind and social interactions? It’s not surprising that more and more people are stepping into the ring. 32. How does the author develop the passage? A. By giving examples. B. By making suggestions. C. By listing reasons. D. By answering questions. 33. What does the underlined word “mitigate ”in Paragraph 3 mean? A. Change. B. Determine. C. Control. D. Reduce. 34. What would be the best choice according to Dr Gavin Williams? A. Practicing boxing in the ring. B. Practicing boxing with a partner. C. Practicing boxing on your own. D. Practicing boxing with a punching bag. 35. What would be the best title for the text? A. The benefits of boxing B. Boxing leads to great teamwork C. The ways to practice boxing D. Boxing does good to your health 【答案】32. C 33. D 34. B 35. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了拳击运动对身体健康、心理健康以及社交互动的益处，解释了为何越来越多的人参与这项运动。 【32题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段中“More recently, boxing has become the mainstream in the UK, with hundreds of thousands of people from all walks of life participating in the sport every week. But why? The answer lies in the physical, mental and even social benefits boxing can bring.(最近，拳击已经成为英国的主流运动，每周都有成千上万来自各行各业的人参加这项运动。但是为什么呢？答案在于拳击可以带来的身体、精神甚至社会效益)”以及第二段中“Its physical benefits are clear. (它对身体的好处是显而易见的)”；以及第三段中“But the high physical demands of the sport aren’t just good for the body — boxing can also have a positive impact on someone’s mental well-being. (但这项运动对身体的高要求不仅对身体有好处，拳击还能对人的心理健康产生积极影响)”以及第四段中“And there is a third benefit of putting on the boxing gloves. Practicing punches can be done alone, of course, but boxing is not just an individual activity — it also involves working with others to train and stay safe. (戴上拳击手套还有第三个好处。当然，练习出拳可以独自完成，但拳击不仅仅是一项个人活动——它还涉及与他人一起训练和保持安全)”可知，文章从拳击历史悠久开始，然后逐步阐述了拳击对身体的物理好处、对心理的积极影响以及社交效益，这些都是通过列举拳击的各个方面的好处来发展的。故选C。 【33题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线词前面的句子“But the high physical demands of the sport aren’t just good for the body——boxing can also have a positive impact on someone’s mental well-being. (但这项运动对身体的高要求不仅对身体有好处，拳击还能对人的心理健康产生积极影响)”以及下文“some of the symptoms of anxiety and depression(一些焦虑和抑郁的症状)”可知，但这项运动对身体的高要求不仅对身体有好处，拳击还能对人的心理健康产生积极影响，此处积极的影响指的是拳击能够缓解或减少一些焦虑和抑郁的症状，故划线词与D选项“reduce(减少)”为同义词。故选D。 【34题详解】 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中“Dr Gavin Williams, Senior Lecturer in Education at the Open University, says that this cooperation and team work can create a sense of identity and belonging. So, no matter what the reason that attracts someone to boxing, the interactive elements of the sport mean it can also have profound social benefits.(开放大学教育高级讲师Gavin Williams博士说，这种合作和团队合作可以创造一种认同感和归属感。所以，无论是什么原因吸引人们参与拳击运动，这项运动的互动元素意味着它也能带来深远的社会效益)”可知，Gavin威廉姆斯博士提到了团队合作和团队工作可以带来身份认同和归属感，因此与人一起练习拳击是最好的选择。故选B。 【35题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段中“More recently, boxing has become the mainstream in the UK, with hundreds of thousands of people from all walks of life participating in the sport every week. But why? The answer lies in the physical, mental and even social benefits boxing can bring.(最近，拳击已经成为英国的主流运动，每周都有成千上万来自各行各业的人参加这项运动。但是为什么呢？答案在于拳击可以带来的身体、精神甚至社会效益)”以及通读全文可知，本文主要介绍了拳击运动对身体健康、心理健康以及社交互动的益处，解释了为何越来越多的人参与这项运动。由此可知，A选项“The benefits of boxing(拳击的好处)”能够概括文章主要内容，适合作本文标题。故选A。 七选五 When you’re meeting someone for the first time, you want to leave him or her a good impression. ___36___ However, it’s not just your mouth doing the talking — the way you hold yourself is just as important. Here are some tips on body language to show positivity and kindness in communication with others. Nod and smile when appropriate. These nonverbal signs can show the other person that you’re fully involved in what he or she is saying, and in agreement. Try nodding three times to show that you’re really absorbing what she is saying. ___37___ If you turn up the corners of your mouth but your eyes stay the same, you could come off as insincere. ___38___ Don’t be obvious, but try to match her body language and facial expression. By doing this, you’ll help the other person feel comfortable toward you. This mirroring technique has even been shown to increase a person’s good will toward the person mirroring her. If she’s leaning on a wall, lean on the wall. If she has crossed her arms, cross your arms. ___39___ Laugh truly. Even if you’re in a formal setting, if the other person has clearly said something that was intended to raise a laugh, laugh! ___40___ And this can also show her that you’re listening to what she is saying.

I was there, not by choice, but because teacher Alice wanted each of us to try out for a part. As a “good” student, I did what I was asked, even if it was scary. I was small for my age, wore secondhand clothes and cried easily. At school, I was often the object of jokes and laughter and had few friends. I wanted desperately to shrink back into my seat and be invisible. But there I was, on stage. Reading was, at least, something I loved. So, I read. I finished reading and rushed back to my seat. The spell was broken. I wanted to curl up and disappear. When the teacher read the cast list and called my name, I wasn’t paying attention. No one ever chose me for anything. “Patty,” she repeated, “you are Star. Come and get your script.” This is impossible! How can it be? With a pounding heart and cold, sweaty hands, I felt nearly dizzy, but incredibly happy. I walked up unsteadily to get the papers. On returning to my desk, I felt regretful. I should have refused. I felt as if everyone else were looking at and laughing at me. I buried my head in my arms. Gently patting my shoulder, teacher Alice said, “Be confident, Patty. You can do this. I know you can. I’ll help you.” With tears in my eyes, I raised my head and nodded firmly. So, I practiced every day — while walking to school, at lunchtime, before bedtime, even on weekends. At first, I was worried about forgetting parts of a long monologue that took place in one scene, but I managed to memorize it. I felt more confident after that. At last, it was the day for the show. 注意： 1.续写词数应为150左右； 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Everything went smoothly until it was my turn to give the long monologue. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Fighting back tears, I continued my performance. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】Para. 1: Everything went smoothly until it was my turn to give the long monologue. Out of nervousness, I forgot the first word. I stood there, my mind blank. A loud noise sounded from the audience, followed by loud laughter. I became the target of laughter again. I lowered my head, with tears welling in my eyes. I was about to dash down the stage when suddenly I felt gentle hands on my arms. I looked up to see teacher Alice’s concerned face. She gave me an encouraging look. Para. 2: Fighting back tears, I continued my performance. To my great surprise, the first word of the long monologue came to my mind. I spoke loudly and clearly without any mistake. I finished the show with no further interruptions. The audience even applauded in the middle of the play after my monologue! I was flying, dancing, filled with the greatest joy you could imagine. I remember forever that I was once a fallen star who managed to rise and sparkle, through my own efforts, with the loving guidance of a great teacher. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了作者在老师的要求下，去参加圣诞剧的试镜，作者一开始很紧张，但在老师的鼓励下不断练习。虽然最后在舞台上忘词，但在老师的鼓励下，还是顺利完成了演出。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“一切都进行得很顺利，直到轮到我说独白。”可知，第一段可描写作者因为紧张在台上忘词的经过。 ②由第二段首句内容“我强忍着泪水继续表演。”可知，第二段可描写作者顺利完成演出的经过。 2.续写线索：轮到作者读独白——忘词——被嘲笑——老师鼓励的眼神——继续表演——完成表演 3.词汇激活 行为类 低头：lower one’s head/head drop 继续：continue/go on 完成：finish/complete 情绪类 紧张：nervousness/ tension 担心：concerned /worried 【点睛】[高分句型1] I lowered my head, with tears welling in my eyes.
