B Large cities are, in many ways, fantastic places to live. They usually have the best schools, biggest companies and best hospitals. However, they are also crowded, as people from small towns choose to live in large cities for school or work. Tokyo, the capital of Japan, is a big city with 13.93 million people. The Japanese government (政府) is thinking about paying people to leave the city. And it is planning to offer 3 million yen (日元) to people who decided to move and find a job elsewhere. This is because the city is getting too crowded (拥挤的). According to NIIK, Tokyo and the areas around it have a total population (人口) of about 38 million. The number of people moving to the areas has been greater than the number of people who have left for the last 22 years. About one out of every three people in Japan lives in Tokyo. This has put a lot of pressure on transportation (交通), hospitals and other public services (公共服务) of the city. What’s more, there has been a population drop (人口下降) in other parts of Japan. Young people in those places leave and never return. Villages (村庄) and towns in the countryside are mainly made up of old people those days. Schools are closing and nobody will work on the farm. For many years, Japan’s government has tried to move people away from the capital and help rebuild (重建) the countryside. Some local governments have used tax cuts (减税) to encourage (鼓励) companies to come back. But it doesn’t work well. Top schools and companies are all in Tokyo, so leaving the capital seems to be a bad decision (决定) for most people. 28．How will the Japanese government make people leave Tokyo? A．By giving less public services. B．By giving them money. C．By increasing (增加) house prices. D．By making a law. 29．In Paragraph 3, the writer uses statistics (数据) to show ________. A．Tokyo is a fantastic place to live B．Tokyo is becoming too crowded C．Tokyo is a city with a long history D．Tokyo has developed fast over the years 30．From the passage, we can infer (推断) that ________. A．Tokyo is the biggest city in Japan B．there will be fewer old people in the village C．companies in Japan don’t need to pay tax (付税) D．people won’t leave Tokyo in a short time C Gordon Williams’s hobby may seem strange to people when they meet it for the first time. But it is a traditional craft (手艺). He builds model ships inside old bottles. Gordon has always loved ships, especially sailing ships from the old days. His interest in this hobby began many years ago when he visited a museum in Ottawa, Canada, where there was a show of model ships in bottles. Gordon thought the show was wonderful. But he wondered how the craftsman got the ship through the thin neck of the bottle. Gordon decided to find it out. He found an old master craftsman who was willing to teach him the necessary skills. First, Gordon takes an old bottle. Then he puts in a layer of putty (一层油灰), carefully shaped and painted, to make it look like the sea. Next, he builds the ship. To get the ship through the neck of the bottle, Gordon holds down the masts (桅杆). Once the ship is inside the bottle, he takes a long, thin tool to raise the masts. Gordon has completed well over one hundred models. His wish is to build bigger model ships, such as aircraft carriers. This will be more challenging (挑战的), as he will have to build the ship actually inside the bottle. His hobby certainly needs time, patience and a steady hand. 31．What do people think of Gordon’s hobby when people first meet it? A．Traditional. B．Useful. C．Unusual. D．Interesting. 32．Which of the following pictures shows the last step of Gordon’s work? A． B． C． D． 33．Gordon’s new plan is more challenging because he will ________. A．make aircraft inside the bottle B．build more than one hundred ships C．put a bigger model ship inside the bottle D．build bigger model ships inside the bottle D 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. Li Ziqi proved that old traditions can live in modern times. Her performance reminded everyone: cultural heritage is not just history--it is a treasure for the future. 34．What is Li Ziqi famous for? A．Singing pop songs. B．Sharing modern technology. C．Promoting traditional skills. D．Acting in movies. 35．The word “robotic” in Paragraph 2 most probably means ________. A．made by hand B．controlled by machines C．painted with colors D．very small in size 36．What is the main purpose of Paragraph 3? A．To describe Li’s popularity.

One day they were reading a story about their great grandfathers: Shiny’s and Smily’s great grandfathers decided to have a race. While Shiny’s great grandfather fell asleep during the race, Smily’s great grandfather won the race by slowly walking towards the finishing line. Smily said, “If your great grandfather didn’t go to sleep, my great granddad might never win. So his win was not a real win.” The next day there was a notice in the jungle（丛林）newspaper. It said that there would be a race and the winner would win many prizes. The race started from the bear’s house. From there, the runners had to cross the river. But most of the animals could not both run fast and swim fast. So they didn’t know what to do. Shiny and Smily made a plan. Shiny ran, while smily was sitting on his back. He and other animals, like the deer, reached the river side at the same time. But they saw the swift（湍急的）water and stood there because they were worried. None of them liked the idea of crossing the river. Smily quickly got into the water and Shiny sat on his back. Smily started swimming. Soon they reached the other side of the river. Shiny got down from Smily’s back and Smily climbed on Shiny’s back again. Shiny ran fast. They reached the finish line first. “Both of them are the winners.” The president of the jungle said, “Shiny and Smily helped each other during the race and they won. So let’s give them a big hand.” 58．Why didn’t Shiny’s great grandfather win the race? 59．Where can the animals read the notice about the race? 60．Whose house did the race start from? 61．How did the animals feel when they saw the swift water? 62．How could Shiny and Smily win the race? 七、书面表达 （本大题共20分） 63．假如你是李明，刚收到来自美国的笔友Kevin的电子邮件，请认真阅读下面的邮件，并根据邮件内容写一封回信。 To: Liming@netease. com From: Kevin@hotmail.com Subject: books Dear Li Ming, How is everything going?

They usually have the best schools, biggest companies and best hospitals. However, they are also crowded, as people from small towns choose to live in large cities for school or work. Tokyo, the capital of Japan, is a big city with 13.93 million people. The Japanese government (政府) is thinking about paying people to leave the city. And it is planning to offer 3 million yen (日元) to people who decided to move and find a job elsewhere. This is because the city is getting too crowded (拥挤的). According to NIIK, Tokyo and the areas around it have a total population (人口) of about 38 million. The number of people moving to the areas has been greater than the number of people who have left for the last 22 years. About one out of every three people in Japan lives in Tokyo. This has put a lot of pressure on transportation (交通), hospitals and other public services (公共服务) of the city. What’s more, there has been a population drop (人口下降) in other parts of Japan. Young people in those places leave and never return. Villages (村庄) and towns in the countryside are mainly made up of old people those days. Schools are closing and nobody will work on the farm. For many years, Japan’s government has tried to move people away from the capital and help rebuild (重建) the countryside. Some local governments have used tax cuts (减税) to encourage (鼓励) companies to come back. But it doesn’t work well. Top schools and companies are all in Tokyo, so leaving the capital seems to be a bad decision (决定) for most people. 28．How will the Japanese government make people leave Tokyo? A．By giving less public services. B．By giving them money. C．By increasing (增加) house prices. D．By making a law. 29．In Paragraph 3, the writer uses statistics (数据) to show ________. A．Tokyo is a fantastic place to live B．Tokyo is becoming too crowded C．Tokyo is a city with a long history D．Tokyo has developed fast over the years 30．From the passage, we can infer (推断) that ________. A．Tokyo is the biggest city in Japan B．there will be fewer old people in the village C．companies in Japan don’t need to pay tax (付税) D．people won’t leave Tokyo in a short time 【答案】28．B 29．B 30．D 【导语】本文主要讲述了日本东京因人口过多而面临的压力，以及日本政府为了缓解这一问题所采取的措施。 28．细节理解题。 根据“The Japanese government is thinking about paying people to leave the city. And it is planning to offer 3 million yen to people who decided to move and find a job elsewhere.”可知日本政府计划通过提供金钱的方式来鼓励人们离开东京。故选B。 29．推理判断题。 根据“According to NIIK, Tokyo and the areas around it have a total population of about 38 million. The number of people moving to the areas has been greater than the number of people who have left for the last 22 years.”可知作者使用统计数据来说明东京变得越来越拥挤。故选B。 30．推理判断题。 根据“Top schools and companies are all in Tokyo, so leaving the capital seems to be a bad decision for most people.”可知在短时间内人们不太可能离开东京。故选D。 C Gordon Williams’s hobby may seem strange to people when they meet it for the first time. But it is a traditional craft (手艺). He builds model ships inside old bottles. Gordon has always loved ships, especially sailing ships from the old days. His interest in this hobby began many years ago when he visited a museum in Ottawa, Canada, where there was a show of model ships in bottles. Gordon thought the show was wonderful. But he wondered how the craftsman got the ship through the thin neck of the bottle. Gordon decided to find it out. He found an old master craftsman who was willing to teach him the necessary skills. First, Gordon takes an old bottle. Then he puts in a layer of putty (一层油灰), carefully shaped and painted, to make it look like the sea. Next, he builds the ship. To get the ship through the neck of the bottle, Gordon holds down the masts (桅杆). Once the ship is inside the bottle, he takes a long, thin tool to raise the masts. Gordon has completed well over one hundred models. His wish is to build bigger model ships, such as aircraft carriers. This will be more challenging (挑战的), as he will have to build the ship actually inside the bottle. His hobby certainly needs time, patience and a steady hand. 31．What do people think of Gordon’s hobby when people first meet it? A．Traditional. B．Useful. C．Unusual. D．Interesting. 32．Which of the following pictures shows the last step of Gordon’s work? A． B． C． D． 33．Gordon’s new plan is more challenging because he will ________. A．make aircraft inside the bottle B．build more than one hundred ships C．put a bigger model ship inside the bottle D．build bigger model ships inside the bottle 【答案】31．C 32．B 33．D 【导语】本文介绍了戈登·威廉姆斯的小众爱好——在瓶子里制作船模。 31．细节理解题。根据“Gordon Williams’s hobby may seem strange to people when they meet it for the first time.”可知，初次接触时，人们可能会对戈登·威廉姆斯的爱好感到很奇怪。unusual意为“不寻常的”，与strange意思相近。故选C。 32．推理判断题。根据“Once the ship is inside the bottle, he takes a long, thin tool to raise the masts.”可知，制作船模的最后一步是把船放进瓶子里，再用一个细长的工具竖起桅杆。故选B。 33．细节理解题。根据“His wish is to build bigger model ships... This will be more challenging (挑战的), as he will have to build the ship actually inside the bottle.”可知，他计划制作更大的船模，这将更具挑战性，因为他必须实实在在地在瓶子内部建造船模。故选D。 D 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. Li Ziqi proved that old traditions can live in modern times. Her performance reminded everyone: cultural heritage is not just history--it is a treasure for the future. 34．What is Li Ziqi famous for?

B．To explain the traditional skills in her dress. C．To compare old and new technologies. D．To discuss the cost of the dress. 37．What’s the best title for the passage? A．How to Make a Traditional Dress B．The History of Spring Festival Gala C．Traditional Culture Meets Modern Times D．Famous Internet Stars in China 【答案】34．C 35．B 36．B 37．C 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要讲了李子柒在2025年央视春节联欢晚会上的表演。 34．细节理解题。根据第一段“Li Ziqi, a Chinese internet star famous for sharing traditional skills”可知，李子柒因分享传统技艺而出名。故选C。 35．词句猜测题。根据“Robotic butterflies flew around her, creating a beautiful scene. This mix of modern technology...”可知，这些蝴蝶使用了现代科学技术，且robot意为“机器人”，可推知画线单词“Robotic”意为“通过机器控制的”。故选B。 36．推理判断题。根据第三段“Li’s dress showed many traditional crafts. It used plant...this dress tells a story from the past.’ Li said.”可知，第三段详细列举裙子中使用的植物染色、竹编、羌绣等13种传统技艺，并引用李的话强调“服饰的每一部分都讲述历史故事”，核心目的是解释她衣服中的传统技能。故选B。 37．最佳标题题。根据“Li Ziqi proved that old traditions can live in modern times.”以及全文可知，李子柒的表演向观众展示了传统文化与现代技艺的结合。故选C。 第Ⅱ卷（主观题 共50分） 四、词汇运用（本大题共10小题，每小题1分，共10分） （A）根据句意和汉语注释，在答题卡对应题号的横线上，写出单词的正确形式。 38．Parents should teach their children to deal with dangerous (情况). 【答案】situations 【详解】句意：父母应该教他们的孩子们处理危险情况。根据中文提示，此处应用可数名词situation“情况”，且此处表示泛指用名词复数。故填situations。 39．The little girl (挑选) the biggest apple.

None of them liked the idea of crossing the river. Smily quickly got into the water and Shiny sat on his back. Smily started swimming. Soon they reached the other side of the river. Shiny got down from Smily’s back and Smily climbed on Shiny’s back again. Shiny ran fast. They reached the finish line first. “Both of them are the winners.” The president of the jungle said, “Shiny and Smily helped each other during the race and they won.

B Large cities are, in many ways, fantastic places to live. They usually have the best schools, biggest companies and best hospitals. However, they are also crowded, as people from small towns choose to live in large cities for school or work. Tokyo, the capital of Japan, is a big city with 13.93 million people. The Japanese government (政府) is thinking about paying people to leave the city. And it is planning to offer 3 million yen (日元) to people who decided to move and find a job elsewhere. This is because the city is getting too crowded (拥挤的). According to NIIK, Tokyo and the areas around it have a total population (人口) of about 38 million. The number of people moving to the areas has been greater than the number of people who have left for the last 22 years. About one out of every three people in Japan lives in Tokyo. This has put a lot of pressure on transportation (交通), hospitals and other public services (公共服务) of the city. What’s more, there has been a population drop (人口下降) in other parts of Japan. Young people in those places leave and never return. Villages (村庄) and towns in the countryside are mainly made up of old people those days. Schools are closing and nobody will work on the farm. For many years, Japan’s government has tried to move people away from the capital and help rebuild (重建) the countryside. Some local governments have used tax cuts (减税) to encourage (鼓励) companies to come back. But it doesn’t work well. Top schools and companies are all in Tokyo, so leaving the capital seems to be a bad decision (决定) for most people. 28．How will the Japanese government make people leave Tokyo? A．By giving less public services. B．By giving them money. C．By increasing (增加) house prices. D．By making a law. 29．In Paragraph 3, the writer uses statistics (数据) to show ________. A．Tokyo is a fantastic place to live B．Tokyo is becoming too crowded C．Tokyo is a city with a long history D．Tokyo has developed fast over the years 30．From the passage, we can infer (推断) that ________. A．Tokyo is the biggest city in Japan B．there will be fewer old people in the village C．companies in Japan don’t need to pay tax (付税) D．people won’t leave Tokyo in a short time C Gordon Williams’s hobby may seem strange to people when they meet it for the first time. But it is a traditional craft (手艺). He builds model ships inside old bottles. Gordon has always loved ships, especially sailing ships from the old days. His interest in this hobby began many years ago when he visited a museum in Ottawa, Canada, where there was a show of model ships in bottles. Gordon thought the show was wonderful. But he wondered how the craftsman got the ship through the thin neck of the bottle. Gordon decided to find it out. He found an old master craftsman who was willing to teach him the necessary skills. First, Gordon takes an old bottle. Then he puts in a layer of putty (一层油灰), carefully shaped and painted, to make it look like the sea. Next, he builds the ship. To get the ship through the neck of the bottle, Gordon holds down the masts (桅杆). Once the ship is inside the bottle, he takes a long, thin tool to raise the masts. Gordon has completed well over one hundred models. His wish is to build bigger model ships, such as aircraft carriers. This will be more challenging (挑战的), as he will have to build the ship actually inside the bottle. His hobby certainly needs time, patience and a steady hand. 31．What do people think of Gordon’s hobby when people first meet it? A．Traditional. B．Useful. C．Unusual. D．Interesting. 32．Which of the following pictures shows the last step of Gordon’s work? A． B． C． D． 33．Gordon’s new plan is more challenging because he will ________. A．make aircraft inside the bottle B．build more than one hundred ships C．put a bigger model ship inside the bottle D．build bigger model ships inside the bottle D 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. Li Ziqi proved that old traditions can live in modern times. Her performance reminded everyone: cultural heritage is not just history--it is a treasure for the future. 34．What is Li Ziqi famous for? A．Singing pop songs. B．Sharing modern technology. C．Promoting traditional skills. D．Acting in movies. 35．The word “robotic” in Paragraph 2 most probably means ________. A．made by hand B．controlled by machines C．painted with colors D．very small in size 36．What is the main purpose of Paragraph 3? A．To describe Li’s popularity. B．To explain the traditional skills in her dress. C．To compare old and new technologies. D．To discuss the cost of the dress. 37．What’s the best title for the passage?

One day they were reading a story about their great grandfathers: Shiny’s and Smily’s great grandfathers decided to have a race. While Shiny’s great grandfather fell asleep during the race, Smily’s great grandfather won the race by slowly walking towards the finishing line. Smily said, “If your great grandfather didn’t go to sleep, my great granddad might never win. So his win was not a real win.” The next day there was a notice in the jungle（丛林）newspaper. It said that there would be a race and the winner would win many prizes. The race started from the bear’s house. From there, the runners had to cross the river. But most of the animals could not both run fast and swim fast. So they didn’t know what to do. Shiny and Smily made a plan. Shiny ran, while smily was sitting on his back. He and other animals, like the deer, reached the river side at the same time. But they saw the swift（湍急的）water and stood there because they were worried. None of them liked the idea of crossing the river. Smily quickly got into the water and Shiny sat on his back. Smily started swimming. Soon they reached the other side of the river. Shiny got down from Smily’s back and Smily climbed on Shiny’s back again. Shiny ran fast. They reached the finish line first. “Both of them are the winners.” The president of the jungle said, “Shiny and Smily helped each other during the race and they won. So let’s give them a big hand.” 58．Why didn’t Shiny’s great grandfather win the race? 59．Where can the animals read the notice about the race? 60．Whose house did the race start from? 61．How did the animals feel when they saw the swift water? 62．How could Shiny and Smily win the race? 七、书面表达 （本大题共20分） 63．假如你是李明，刚收到来自美国的笔友Kevin的电子邮件，请认真阅读下面的邮件，并根据邮件内容写一封回信。 To: Liming@netease. com From: Kevin@hotmail.com Subject: books Dear Li Ming, How is everything going?
