B Li Ziqi, a Chinese internet star famous for sharing traditional skills, made her first appearance at the 2025 CCTV Spring Festival Gala. Her performance became one of the most exciting moments of the show. A Magical Opening Scene The gala started with Li Ziqi standing on the stage. When the camera focused on her, large butterfly wings made with Weifang kite and gold-weaving skills opened behind her. Robotic butterflies flew around her, creating a beautiful scene. This mix of modern technology and traditional art surprised the audience. A Dress Full of Traditional Skills Li’s dress showed many traditional crafts. It used plant dyeing (coloring cloth with leaves), bamboo weaving, and Qiang embroidery (绣花). The butterfly designs on her dress included Chengdu lacquer (漆) art and Yingshan silk flowers. In total, 13 different intangible cultural heritage (ICH) skills were used “Every part of this dress tells a story from the past.” Li said. Why It Matters As a “Sichuan ICH Ambassador,” Li’s performance taught young people about traditional arts. After the show, many viewers searched online to learn about these skills. “I never knew bamboo weaving could be so interesting!” wrote a teenage fan on social media.

One evening Friday went out to look for food. But soon he was back, and he looked very afraid. “Master! Master!” he cried, “There’s a great ship near the island, and men are coming to the shore in a boat!” I jumped up and ran with him down to the shore. I saw that it was an English ship! But why was it here? English ships never came this way. Perhaps they were pirates (海盗)! “Don’t let them see you, Friday!” I called, “We’ll hide in the trees and watch.” There were eleven men in the boat, but three of them were prisoners (囚犯). Their arms were tied with rope, but their legs were free and they could walk. The other sailors pushed the three prisoners up the beach, laughing and shouting and hitting them. The three prisoners walked slowly along the beach and sat down under a tree, not far from us. They looked very unhappy. Very quietly, I came up behind them through the trees, and called out to them in English. “Don’t be afraid,” I said. “I’m an Englishman. Perhaps I can help you.” The three men turned and looked at me. They did not answer at once. They were too surprised. Perhaps they thought I was a wild man myself, in my strange clothes made of animals’ skins, and with my long hair and beard. Then the oldest man spoke, “I am the captain of that ship,” he said, “and these two men are my first and second officers. Last night there was a mutiny (叛乱), and the seamen took the ship from me. Now they’re going to leave the three of us here, to die on this island.” “Do these mutineers (叛军) have guns?” “Only two,” he answered, “and they’ve left those on the boat.” “All right,” I said. “We’ll fight them. But if we get your ship back for you, you must take me back to England.” Friday ran back to my house to get all the guns, and the captain and I made a plan. 18．How did Friday feel when he saw an English ship coming towards the island? A．Relaxed. B．Excited. C．Angry. D．Afraid. 19．What is the correct order of the following events? a. The three prisoners sat under a tree on the beach. b. The writer and Friday saw a ship coming to their island. c. The writer managed to talk with the three prisoners. d. The mutineers took the ship from the three prisoners.

C．He lived on the island alone for 27 years. D．He could fight the mutineers without guns. 21．Why did “I” help the captain? A．Because he was caught by the mutineers. B．Because the ship was taken by the mutineers. C．Because a mutiny happened on the ship. D．Because maybe it was a chance for me to leave the island. D Many Chinese people live far away from China. They go to other countries to study or work. These people are called “overseas Chinese.” Even though they live in different places, they always miss their homeland. This feeling is called “homesickness.” Overseas Chinese often say, “You can take the person out of China, but you can’t take China out of the person.” This means that no matter where they go, they always remember their home. They miss their family, friends, and the places they grew up in. During Chinese festivals like the Spring Festival and the Mid-Autumn Festival, overseas Chinese feel even more homesick. They celebrate these festivals with friends, but they still miss their family back home. Food is a big part of feeling at home. Overseas Chinese often say, “There’s no place like home,” especially when they think about Chinese food. They miss the taste of their mother’s cooking or the special dishes from their hometown. Sometimes, they go to Chinese restaurants to find a taste of home. They might even learn to cook Chinese food themselves. Today, it’s easier for overseas Chinese to stay connected with their families back home. They can make video calls and send messages. But they still feel homesick. They say, “A picture is worth a thousand words,” meaning that seeing their family on the screen is not the same as being with them in person. Many overseas Chinese dream of going back to China one day. They say, “Birds return to their nests, and people return to their roots.” This means that no matter how far they go, they always want to come back to where they came from. Even if they live in another country for a long time, China will always be their true home. For overseas Chinese, homesickness is not just about missing a place. It’s about missing the people and the culture that make them who they are. They say, “Home is where the heart is,” and their hearts will always be in China. 22．What does the term “overseas Chinese” refer to? A．Chinese people who travel abroad for tourism. B．Chinese people who live and work in other countries. C．Chinese people who have never left China. D．Chinese people who visit other countries for short trips. 23．Why do overseas Chinese sometimes go to Chinese restaurants? A．To meet other Chinese people. B．To learn how to cook Chinese dishes. C．To find a taste of home through familiar food. D．To celebrate Chinese festivals. 24．What does the saying “Birds return to their nests, and people return to their roots” mean? A．People always want to return to where they came from. B．People should visit their hometowns regularly. C．People should stay in their hometowns forever. D．People should build nests like birds. 25．Which is NOT mentioned (提到) as a way overseas Chinese try to stay connected to their homeland? A．Making video calls to family. B．Cooking Chinese food. C．Visiting Chinese restaurants. D．Writing letters to friends. 第三部分 信息还原（共5小题：每小题1分，满分5分） 请认真阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。 “Teenager” means people from 13 to 19 years old. Although they’re young, they have to make many important choices by themselves. They need to think about questions like these: Should I go to college? 26 However, other people also influence their choices. Who influences teenagers? Teenagers were asked this question and here’s what they said. It depends on the kind of choice. When teenagers buy things, friends are the most important influence. This is especially true for clothes and music. TV shows, advertisements and parents also influence teenagers. 27 Some teenagers say it’s best to regard both parents and friends as influences. James, a seventeen-year-old boy says, “Parents are really important because they can tell you what’s right and wrong. ” 28 As a teenage girl said, “If our parents don’t let us make our own choices, maybe in the future we won’t know how to do it.” 29 Because friends sometimes know more about them than their parents do. Do you depend on parents or others when you don’t know what to do and how to do it? 30 Your future is in your hand. A．About more serious things, parents are probably the most important influence. B．Whoever you depend on, the correct choice is the most important. C．And they feel friends can often be a big help. D．But teenagers also feel they need to make choices themselves. E．What kind of jobs do I want? F．Teenagers should make more friends. G．They also need to listen to parents’ opinions. 第四部分 词汇运用（共13小题；每小题1分，满分13分） 第一节 根据下列句子所给汉语注释或首字母，在答题卡标有题号的横线上，写出空缺处各单词的正确形式，每空限填一词。 31．Mattew Chimudzi wants to study Chinese so that he can c well with Chinese people one day. 32．—The car moved at high s on the way. —It was dangerous. 33．He didn’t go there.

The answer is in the name. Staycation comes from two words, “stay” and “vacation”, which means 44 (stay) at home and spending holidays in places that are not far from their home. There are different activities to choose from. You could attend 45 event or visit a local place of natural beauty. There could be a museum or a theme park in your area. It may be a spa or a countryside walk. Or maybe you have decided 46 (not leave) the house at all. Here are some of the most usual reasons for choosing a staycation. Many people choose to take a stay cation because they don’t have enough money to travel abroad. People may go on holidays when they have the money to do so. 47 they don’t have enough money, it’s impossible to go to other countries. Some people do not want the inconvenience (不便) of travelling. These people may choose tourist activities close to home or to take a trip in a nearby area. This is popular with people who are 48 (able) to travel far. For example, they may have young 49 (child), have a disability or have work close to home. People think that taking a staycation 50 (be) easier than travelling farther. Maybe there is no language barrier (障碍) and no need for money exchange 51 home and abroad. A stay cation can often be 52 (good) for the environment because we are travelling less. No flights and less transport mean less CO2 emissions (排放), which can only be a good thing. Many people are now understanding the 53 (important) of supporting their local community. Instead of travelling to another place, they like to spend their money in the local area to help improve the local economy (经济). 第六部分 阅读表达（共3小题；54题2分，55题2分，56题3分，满分7分） 请认真阅读下面短文，用英语回答短文后的问题，并将答案写在答题卡标有题号的横线上。 What will future homes look like? A team of architects (建筑师) in Hong Kong say that city homes will be tiny, as population (人口) continues to grow and space becomes more expensive. They have designed “spaceflats’’ that are just 30 square metres in size. These flats have a living room, a bathroom and a bedroom, as well as a balcony, but everything is carefully planned to make good use of the limited space. The living room is the main room of the flat. It can be used as an office, a kitchen or even a second bedroom. There is a sofa that can be changed into a bed. The dining table can be changed into a computer desk. Both the sofa and the table can be folded (折叠) away and stored into a small space in the wall. There is a TV, which can also be used as a computer screen. In one corner of the room, a small cooker, a microwave oven and a small fridge are hidden out of sight. The other rooms are small but practical (实用的). The bathroom has a toilet and a shower. The double bed in the bedroom can also be a sofa, if necessary. The balcony has enough room for two people to sit on and enjoy the view outside. “Spaceflats” are now being tested in a building in Hong Kong. A resident (居民) said, “The flat is so well designed that you feel that there is plenty of space.” 54．How many rooms does a “spaceflat” have? 55．What does the resident think of the “spaceflat”? 56．Would you like to live in a “spaceflat”? Why or why not? 第七部分 书面表达（共1题；满分25分） 57．假如你是Amy，你的学校将开展“灵魂在路上，让心智成长”为主题的演讲活动，请你根据下面的流程图所给的提示，写一篇关于旅行的演讲稿，分享你对旅行的感受、你印象深刻的一次旅行以及体会。 注意事项： 1. 演讲稿须根据流程图自拟，要求语句通顺、意思连贯、符合题意； 2. 词数在100左右，演讲稿的开头已经给出，不计入总词数； 3. 演讲稿中不得出现真实的人名、校名等相关信息。 Dear teachers and classmates, I’m Amy.

One evening Friday went out to look for food. But soon he was back, and he looked very afraid. “Master! Master!” he cried, “There’s a great ship near the island, and men are coming to the shore in a boat!” I jumped up and ran with him down to the shore. I saw that it was an English ship! But why was it here? English ships never came this way. Perhaps they were pirates (海盗)! “Don’t let them see you, Friday!” I called, “We’ll hide in the trees and watch.” There were eleven men in the boat, but three of them were prisoners (囚犯). Their arms were tied with rope, but their legs were free and they could walk. The other sailors pushed the three prisoners up the beach, laughing and shouting and hitting them. The three prisoners walked slowly along the beach and sat down under a tree, not far from us. They looked very unhappy. Very quietly, I came up behind them through the trees, and called out to them in English. “Don’t be afraid,” I said. “I’m an Englishman. Perhaps I can help you.” The three men turned and looked at me. They did not answer at once. They were too surprised. Perhaps they thought I was a wild man myself, in my strange clothes made of animals’ skins, and with my long hair and beard. Then the oldest man spoke, “I am the captain of that ship,” he said, “and these two men are my first and second officers. Last night there was a mutiny (叛乱), and the seamen took the ship from me. Now they’re going to leave the three of us here, to die on this island.” “Do these mutineers (叛军) have guns?” “Only two,” he answered, “and they’ve left those on the boat.” “All right,” I said. “We’ll fight them. But if we get your ship back for you, you must take me back to England.” Friday ran back to my house to get all the guns, and the captain and I made a plan. 18．How did Friday feel when he saw an English ship coming towards the island?

B．Because the ship was taken by the mutineers. C．Because a mutiny happened on the ship. D．Because maybe it was a chance for me to leave the island. 【答案】18．D 19．C 20．B 21．D 【导语】本文主要讲述了主人公在荒岛上生活了27年，某天发现一艘英国船靠近岛屿，随后与星期五一起帮助被叛军俘虏的船长夺回船只的故事。 18．细节理解题。根据“But soon he was back, and he looked very afraid.”可知，星期五看到英国船时感到害怕。故选D。 19．细节理解题。根据“Last night there was a mutiny (叛乱), and the seamen took the ship from me.”可知，首先是叛军夺取了船，d排第一；根据“There’s a great ship near the island, and men are coming to the shore in a boat!”可知，作者和星期五看到船靠近岛屿，b排第二；根据“The three prisoners walked slowly along the beach and sat down under a tree, not far from us.”可知，三名囚犯坐在海滩的树下，a排第三；根据“Very quietly, I came up behind them through the trees, and called out to them in English.”可知，作者设法与三名囚犯交谈，c排第四。故选C。 20．推理判断题。根据“But if we get your ship back for you, you must take me back to England.”可知，作者希望离开岛屿。故选B。 21．推理判断题。根据“But if we get your ship back for you, you must take me back to England.”可知，作者帮助船长是为了有机会离开岛屿。故选D。 D Many Chinese people live far away from China. They go to other countries to study or work. These people are called “overseas Chinese.” Even though they live in different places, they always miss their homeland. This feeling is called “homesickness.” Overseas Chinese often say, “You can take the person out of China, but you can’t take China out of the person.” This means that no matter where they go, they always remember their home. They miss their family, friends, and the places they grew up in. During Chinese festivals like the Spring Festival and the Mid-Autumn Festival, overseas Chinese feel even more homesick. They celebrate these festivals with friends, but they still miss their family back home. Food is a big part of feeling at home. Overseas Chinese often say, “There’s no place like home,” especially when they think about Chinese food. They miss the taste of their mother’s cooking or the special dishes from their hometown. Sometimes, they go to Chinese restaurants to find a taste of home. They might even learn to cook Chinese food themselves. Today, it’s easier for overseas Chinese to stay connected with their families back home. They can make video calls and send messages. But they still feel homesick. They say, “A picture is worth a thousand words,” meaning that seeing their family on the screen is not the same as being with them in person. Many overseas Chinese dream of going back to China one day. They say, “Birds return to their nests, and people return to their roots.” This means that no matter how far they go, they always want to come back to where they came from. Even if they live in another country for a long time, China will always be their true home. For overseas Chinese, homesickness is not just about missing a place. It’s about missing the people and the culture that make them who they are. They say, “Home is where the heart is,” and their hearts will always be in China. 22．What does the term “overseas Chinese” refer to? A．Chinese people who travel abroad for tourism. B．Chinese people who live and work in other countries. C．Chinese people who have never left China. D．Chinese people who visit other countries for short trips. 23．Why do overseas Chinese sometimes go to Chinese restaurants? A．To meet other Chinese people. B．To learn how to cook Chinese dishes. C．To find a taste of home through familiar food. D．To celebrate Chinese festivals. 24．What does the saying “Birds return to their nests, and people return to their roots” mean? A．People always want to return to where they came from. B．People should visit their hometowns regularly. C．People should stay in their hometowns forever. D．People should build nests like birds. 25．Which is NOT mentioned (提到) as a way overseas Chinese try to stay connected to their homeland? A．Making video calls to family. B．Cooking Chinese food. C．Visiting Chinese restaurants. D．Writing letters to friends. 【答案】22．B 23．C 24．A 25．D 【导语】本文主要讲述了海外华人无论身处何地，始终心系家乡，思念亲人和故乡的情感故事。 22．词句猜测题。根据“Many Chinese people live far away from China. They go to other countries to study or work. These people are called ‘overseas Chinese.’ ”可知，许多中国人住在远离中国的地方。他们去其他国家学习或工作，这些人被称作“overseas Chinese”。故选B。 23．细节理解题。根据“Sometimes, they go to Chinese restaurants to find a taste of home.”可知，海外华人有时会去中国餐馆是为了寻找家乡的味道。故选C。 24．词句猜测题。根据“This means that no matter how far they go, they always want to come back to where they came from.”可知，这句话的意思是无论他们走了多远，他们总是想回到他们来的地方。故选A。 25．细节理解题。根据“Sometimes, they go to Chinese restaurants to find a taste of home. They might even learn to cook Chinese food themselves.”以及“Today, it’s easier for overseas Chinese to stay connected with their families back home. They can make video calls and send messages.”可知，文中未提到D项“给朋友写信”这一方式。故选D。 第三部分 信息还原（共5小题：每小题1分，满分5分） 请认真阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。 “Teenager” means people from 13 to 19 years old. Although they’re young, they have to make many important choices by themselves. They need to think about questions like these: Should I go to college? 26 However, other people also influence their choices. Who influences teenagers? Teenagers were asked this question and here’s what they said. It depends on the kind of choice. When teenagers buy things, friends are the most important influence. This is especially true for clothes and music. TV shows, advertisements and parents also influence teenagers. 27 Some teenagers say it’s best to regard both parents and friends as influences. James, a seventeen-year-old boy says, “Parents are really important because they can tell you what’s right and wrong. ” 28 As a teenage girl said, “If our parents don’t let us make our own choices, maybe in the future we won’t know how to do it.” 29 Because friends sometimes know more about them than their parents do. Do you depend on parents or others when you don’t know what to do and how to do it? 30 Your future is in your hand. A．About more serious things, parents are probably the most important influence. B．Whoever you depend on, the correct choice is the most important. C．And they feel friends can often be a big help. D．But teenagers also feel they need to make choices themselves.

TV shows, advertisements and parents also influence teenagers.”可知，上文提到买东西时朋友影响最大，电视节目、广告和父母也有影响，后文“Some teenagers say it’s best to regard both parents and friends as influences”提到一些青少年认为应把父母和朋友都当作影响因素，所以这里应是在说父母在某些方面的影响。选项A“关于更严肃的事情，父母可能是最重要的影响因素。”符合语境。故选A。 28．根据“Parents are really important because they can tell you what’s right and wrong.”可知，前文引用詹姆斯的话说明父母的重要性，后文“If our parents don’t let us make our own choices, maybe in the future we won’t know how to do it”引用女孩的话强调青少年自己做选择的必要性，所以此处应是转折，引出青少年也希望自己做选择。选项D“但是青少年也觉得他们需要自己做选择。”符合语境。故选D。 29．根据后文“Because friends sometimes know more about them than their parents do.”可知，朋友有时比他们的父母更了解他们，说明这里是在说朋友能给青少年提供帮助。选项C“并且他们觉得朋友通常能帮上大忙。”符合语境。故选C。 30．根据“Do you depend on parents or others when you don’t know what to do and how to do it?”可知，前文询问当不知道做什么和怎么做时依赖父母还是其他人，后文“Your future is in your hand.”说你的未来在你手中，所以这里应是总结无论依赖谁，正确的选择最重要。选项B“无论你依赖谁，正确的选择是最重要的。”符合语境。故选B。 第四部分 词汇运用（共13小题；每小题1分，满分13分） 第一节根据下列句子所给汉语注释或首字母，在答题卡标有题号的横线上，写出空缺处各单词的正确形式，每空限填一词。 31．Mattew Chimudzi wants to study Chinese so that he can c well with Chinese people one day. 【答案】(c)ommunicate 【详解】句意：Mattew Chimudzi想要学习中文，以便有一天他可以和中国人很好地交流。communicate“交流”，为动词；情态动词can后应用动词原形。故填(c)ommunicate。 32．—The car moved at high s on the way. —It was dangerous. 【答案】(s)peed 【详解】句意：——汽车在路上高速行驶。——这很危险。根据“The car moved at high”可知汽车行驶速度很快，at high speed“以很高的速度”。故填(s)peed。 33．He didn’t go there.

I’m afraid she must be very sad now. 【答案】have told 【详解】句意：我已经告诉她实情。恐怕她现在一定很难过。从“I’m afraid she must be very sad now.”判断前面句子说的应该是已经知道真相，所以时态应该用现在完成时，构成为have/has+动词的过去分词，由于主语是第一人称的单数，所以是have told。故填have told。 37．The day of our trip to Europe arrived (final). 【答案】finally 【详解】句意：我们到欧洲旅行的日子终于到了。final“最后的”，分析句子结构可知，此处缺少副词修饰动词arrived。故填finally。 38．The sun went down and (dark) fell. 【答案】darkness 【详解】句意：太阳下山了，黑暗降临了。根据“fell”可知，此处需要名词作主语，意为“黑暗”。故填darkness。 第二节请认真阅读下面短文，从方框中选择适当的单词或短语，在答题卡标有题号的横线上、填入其正确形式。每个单词或短语仅用一次。 be tired out    pick   on business   north   experience Peter has worked and lived in Shandong Province for almost five years.

A team of architects (建筑师) in Hong Kong say that city homes will be tiny, as population (人口) continues to grow and space becomes more expensive. They have designed “spaceflats’’ that are just 30 square metres in size. These flats have a living room, a bathroom and a bedroom, as well as a balcony, but everything is carefully planned to make good use of the limited space. The living room is the main room of the flat. It can be used as an office, a kitchen or even a second bedroom. There is a sofa that can be changed into a bed. The dining table can be changed into a computer desk. Both the sofa and the table can be folded (折叠) away and stored into a small space in the wall. There is a TV, which can also be used as a computer screen. In one corner of the room, a small cooker, a microwave oven and a small fridge are hidden out of sight. The other rooms are small but practical (实用的). The bathroom has a toilet and a shower. The double bed in the bedroom can also be a sofa, if necessary. The balcony has enough room for two people to sit on and enjoy the view outside. “Spaceflats” are now being tested in a building in Hong Kong. A resident (居民) said, “The flat is so well designed that you feel that there is plenty of space.” 54．How many rooms does a “spaceflat” have? 55．What does the resident think of the “spaceflat”? 56．Would you like to live in a “spaceflat”?

Today I’m glad to share my ideas about travelling with you. Travelling plays an important role in our lives, for we can broaden our horizons by travelling. As the old saying goes, “He who has never been to the Great Wall is not a true man.” Last summer, I visited the Great Wall, which is one of the wonders of the world.

B Li Ziqi, a Chinese internet star famous for sharing traditional skills, made her first appearance at the 2025 CCTV Spring Festival Gala. Her performance became one of the most exciting moments of the show. A Magical Opening Scene The gala started with Li Ziqi standing on the stage. When the camera focused on her, large butterfly wings made with Weifang kite and gold-weaving skills opened behind her. Robotic butterflies flew around her, creating a beautiful scene. This mix of modern technology and traditional art surprised the audience. A Dress Full of Traditional Skills Li’s dress showed many traditional crafts.

In total, 13 different intangible cultural heritage (ICH) skills were used “Every part of this dress tells a story from the past.” Li said.

After the show, many viewers searched online to learn about these skills. “I never knew bamboo weaving could be so interesting!” wrote a teenage fan on social media.

One evening Friday went out to look for food. But soon he was back, and he looked very afraid. “Master! Master!” he cried, “There’s a great ship near the island, and men are coming to the shore in a boat!” I jumped up and ran with him down to the shore. I saw that it was an English ship! But why was it here? English ships never came this way. Perhaps they were pirates (海盗)! “Don’t let them see you, Friday!” I called, “We’ll hide in the trees and watch.” There were eleven men in the boat, but three of them were prisoners (囚犯). Their arms were tied with rope, but their legs were free and they could walk. The other sailors pushed the three prisoners up the beach, laughing and shouting and hitting them. The three prisoners walked slowly along the beach and sat down under a tree, not far from us. They looked very unhappy. Very quietly, I came up behind them through the trees, and called out to them in English. “Don’t be afraid,” I said. “I’m an Englishman. Perhaps I can help you.” The three men turned and looked at me. They did not answer at once. They were too surprised. Perhaps they thought I was a wild man myself, in my strange clothes made of animals’ skins, and with my long hair and beard. Then the oldest man spoke, “I am the captain of that ship,” he said, “and these two men are my first and second officers. Last night there was a mutiny (叛乱), and the seamen took the ship from me. Now they’re going to leave the three of us here, to die on this island.” “Do these mutineers (叛军) have guns?” “Only two,” he answered, “and they’ve left those on the boat.” “All right,” I said. “We’ll fight them. But if we get your ship back for you, you must take me back to England.” Friday ran back to my house to get all the guns, and the captain and I made a plan. 18．How did Friday feel when he saw an English ship coming towards the island? A．Relaxed. B．Excited. C．Angry. D．Afraid. 19．What is the correct order of the following events? a. The three prisoners sat under a tree on the beach. b. The writer and Friday saw a ship coming to their island. c. The writer managed to talk with the three prisoners. d. The mutineers took the ship from the three prisoners.

C．He lived on the island alone for 27 years. D．He could fight the mutineers without guns. 21．Why did “I” help the captain? A．Because he was caught by the mutineers. B．Because the ship was taken by the mutineers. C．Because a mutiny happened on the ship. D．Because maybe it was a chance for me to leave the island. D Many Chinese people live far away from China. They go to other countries to study or work. These people are called “overseas Chinese.” Even though they live in different places, they always miss their homeland. This feeling is called “homesickness.” Overseas Chinese often say, “You can take the person out of China, but you can’t take China out of the person.” This means that no matter where they go, they always remember their home. They miss their family, friends, and the places they grew up in. During Chinese festivals like the Spring Festival and the Mid-Autumn Festival, overseas Chinese feel even more homesick. They celebrate these festivals with friends, but they still miss their family back home. Food is a big part of feeling at home. Overseas Chinese often say, “There’s no place like home,” especially when they think about Chinese food. They miss the taste of their mother’s cooking or the special dishes from their hometown. Sometimes, they go to Chinese restaurants to find a taste of home. They might even learn to cook Chinese food themselves. Today, it’s easier for overseas Chinese to stay connected with their families back home. They can make video calls and send messages. But they still feel homesick. They say, “A picture is worth a thousand words,” meaning that seeing their family on the screen is not the same as being with them in person. Many overseas Chinese dream of going back to China one day. They say, “Birds return to their nests, and people return to their roots.” This means that no matter how far they go, they always want to come back to where they came from. Even if they live in another country for a long time, China will always be their true home. For overseas Chinese, homesickness is not just about missing a place. It’s about missing the people and the culture that make them who they are. They say, “Home is where the heart is,” and their hearts will always be in China. 22．What does the term “overseas Chinese” refer to? A．Chinese people who travel abroad for tourism. B．Chinese people who live and work in other countries. C．Chinese people who have never left China. D．Chinese people who visit other countries for short trips. 23．Why do overseas Chinese sometimes go to Chinese restaurants? A．To meet other Chinese people. B．To learn how to cook Chinese dishes. C．To find a taste of home through familiar food. D．To celebrate Chinese festivals. 24．What does the saying “Birds return to their nests, and people return to their roots” mean? A．People always want to return to where they came from. B．People should visit their hometowns regularly. C．People should stay in their hometowns forever. D．People should build nests like birds. 25．Which is NOT mentioned (提到) as a way overseas Chinese try to stay connected to their homeland? A．Making video calls to family. B．Cooking Chinese food. C．Visiting Chinese restaurants. D．Writing letters to friends. 第三部分 信息还原（共5小题：每小题1分，满分5分） 请认真阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。 “Teenager” means people from 13 to 19 years old. Although they’re young, they have to make many important choices by themselves. They need to think about questions like these: Should I go to college? 26 However, other people also influence their choices. Who influences teenagers? Teenagers were asked this question and here’s what they said. It depends on the kind of choice. When teenagers buy things, friends are the most important influence. This is especially true for clothes and music. TV shows, advertisements and parents also influence teenagers. 27 Some teenagers say it’s best to regard both parents and friends as influences. James, a seventeen-year-old boy says, “Parents are really important because they can tell you what’s right and wrong. ” 28 As a teenage girl said, “If our parents don’t let us make our own choices, maybe in the future we won’t know how to do it.” 29 Because friends sometimes know more about them than their parents do. Do you depend on parents or others when you don’t know what to do and how to do it? 30 Your future is in your hand. A．About more serious things, parents are probably the most important influence. B．Whoever you depend on, the correct choice is the most important. C．And they feel friends can often be a big help. D．But teenagers also feel they need to make choices themselves. E．What kind of jobs do I want? F．Teenagers should make more friends. G．They also need to listen to parents’ opinions. 第四部分 词汇运用（共13小题；每小题1分，满分13分） 第一节 根据下列句子所给汉语注释或首字母，在答题卡标有题号的横线上，写出空缺处各单词的正确形式，每空限填一词。 31．Mattew Chimudzi wants to study Chinese so that he can c well with Chinese people one day. 32．—The car moved at high s on the way. —It was dangerous. 33．He didn’t go there.

The answer is in the name. Staycation comes from two words, “stay” and “vacation”, which means 44 (stay) at home and spending holidays in places that are not far from their home. There are different activities to choose from. You could attend 45 event or visit a local place of natural beauty. There could be a museum or a theme park in your area. It may be a spa or a countryside walk. Or maybe you have decided 46 (not leave) the house at all. Here are some of the most usual reasons for choosing a staycation. Many people choose to take a stay cation because they don’t have enough money to travel abroad. People may go on holidays when they have the money to do so. 47 they don’t have enough money, it’s impossible to go to other countries. Some people do not want the inconvenience (不便) of travelling. These people may choose tourist activities close to home or to take a trip in a nearby area. This is popular with people who are 48 (able) to travel far. For example, they may have young 49 (child), have a disability or have work close to home. People think that taking a staycation 50 (be) easier than travelling farther. Maybe there is no language barrier (障碍) and no need for money exchange 51 home and abroad. A stay cation can often be 52 (good) for the environment because we are travelling less. No flights and less transport mean less CO2 emissions (排放), which can only be a good thing. Many people are now understanding the 53 (important) of supporting their local community. Instead of travelling to another place, they like to spend their money in the local area to help improve the local economy (经济). 第六部分 阅读表达（共3小题；54题2分，55题2分，56题3分，满分7分） 请认真阅读下面短文，用英语回答短文后的问题，并将答案写在答题卡标有题号的横线上。 What will future homes look like? A team of architects (建筑师) in Hong Kong say that city homes will be tiny, as population (人口) continues to grow and space becomes more expensive. They have designed “spaceflats’’ that are just 30 square metres in size. These flats have a living room, a bathroom and a bedroom, as well as a balcony, but everything is carefully planned to make good use of the limited space. The living room is the main room of the flat. It can be used as an office, a kitchen or even a second bedroom. There is a sofa that can be changed into a bed. The dining table can be changed into a computer desk. Both the sofa and the table can be folded (折叠) away and stored into a small space in the wall. There is a TV, which can also be used as a computer screen. In one corner of the room, a small cooker, a microwave oven and a small fridge are hidden out of sight. The other rooms are small but practical (实用的). The bathroom has a toilet and a shower. The double bed in the bedroom can also be a sofa, if necessary. The balcony has enough room for two people to sit on and enjoy the view outside. “Spaceflats” are now being tested in a building in Hong Kong. A resident (居民) said, “The flat is so well designed that you feel that there is plenty of space.” 54．How many rooms does a “spaceflat” have? 55．What does the resident think of the “spaceflat”? 56．Would you like to live in a “spaceflat”? Why or why not? 第七部分 书面表达（共1题；满分25分） 57．假如你是Amy，你的学校将开展“灵魂在路上，让心智成长”为主题的演讲活动，请你根据下面的流程图所给的提示，写一篇关于旅行的演讲稿，分享你对旅行的感受、你印象深刻的一次旅行以及体会。 注意事项： 1. 演讲稿须根据流程图自拟，要求语句通顺、意思连贯、符合题意； 2. 词数在100左右，演讲稿的开头已经给出，不计入总词数； 3. 演讲稿中不得出现真实的人名、校名等相关信息。 Dear teachers and classmates, I’m Amy.
