Follow these ways, and then you’ll improve your relationship with them. Spend more time with your parents. Your parents won’t always be around, so try to spend more time with them. This doesn’t mean just sitting in front of the TV together. Instead, you should do more activities with your parents together. By doing them, all of you will feel happy and relaxed. Talk with your parents more often. In order to understand them better, you should talk with them more often. Try to learn more about them. For example, you could ask them about their own childhood. In this way, you will understand them better. Always listen to your parents. This may seem simple, but it’s often harder than you think. Look at your parents when they are talking. Don’t interrupt (打断) them, and then speak clearly when replying to them. Share your feelings with your parents. Sometimes your parents also want to learn more about you. Just do your best to open your heart to them. When possible, talk to them about something at school or what you really want to be in the future. Make your parents feel proud. There are always some ways to make your parents feel good about you. By working hard, you can do well in school or win prizes in games. They will think how lucky they are to have you and be more willing to talk about you in front of others. 1. Who is the passage written for? A. Parents. B. Children. C. Old people. D. Teachers. 2.

A 【解析】 【导语】本文针对孩子提出5条实用建议，帮助改善亲子关系。 【1题详解】 推理判断题。根据“Sometimes you might feel it impossible to get on with your parents. But in fact, it isn’t as difficult as you think. Follow these ways, and then you’ll improve your relationship with them.”可知，文章是写给那些希望改善与父母关系的人，尤其是孩子。故选B。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。根据“Spend more time with your parents. Your parents won’t always be around, so try to spend more time with them.”可知，改善与父母关系的方式是花更多时间陪伴他们。故选D。 【3题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章内容，文章给出的是花时间陪伴、交流、倾听、分享感受、让父母骄傲等方法，并不是要为父母做一切事情，所以D选项错误，故选D。 【4题详解】 最佳标题题。文章第一段指出和父母相处可能觉得难，但实际上没那么难，并说遵循一些方法能改善和父母的关系，后面几段分别从不同方面阐述了和父母相处的方法，所以“How to get on with your parents.”能概括文章主旨。故选A。 B When we talk about reading, we probably think of eyes, because we do the reading by eyes. But we can do some reading by ears, too. And with the development of smartphones, it’s getting easier and easier to do some reading by ears—by listening to news, novels and so on. This is audio reading (有声阅读). We can do audio reading in many places. Many people like doing audio reading in bed, before going to sleep. They like to just lie in bed in darkness before they fall asleep. This would be a great time to do some audio reading. If you read an ordinary (普通的) book, you have to turn on the lights and you have to turn the pages with your hand. Some other people would like to do audio reading in the kitchen. For some people, it’s boring to cook. So they enjoy their time by listening to news or stories. For some others, it’s interesting to cook by listening to instructions (操作指南) made by famous cooks. Audio reading is a favorite while a person is exercising. It allows the mind to be free while the legs, body and arms are kept busy. But be careful. Don’t make yourself and others in danger. Let’s take driving for example. If you pay much attention to (过于关注) listening, you can’t be a good driver. Finally, audio reading is helpful for blind (瞎的) people. It’s difficult for them to do reading in the past. But now, they can do some audio reading easily. 5. According to (根据) the text, it’s NOT audio reading when people listen to ________. A. news B. stories C. music D. novels 6. What can we know from the text? A. Audio reading may be popular. B. Audio reading helps you cook a nice dish. C. Audio reading is difficult for blind people. D There may be no paper books in the future. 7. In which part of the newspaper can you read the text? A. Health. B. Hobby. C. Study. D. Exercise. 8. How is the text organized? (①=Paragraph 1， ②=Paragraph 2,…) A. B. C. D. 【答案】5. C 6. A 7. B 8. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了有声阅读这一阅读方式，包括它的定义、适合进行有声阅读的场景以及对不同人群的作用。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据“And with the development of smartphones, it’s getting easier and easier to do some reading by ears—by listening to news, novels and so on. This is audio reading (有声阅读).”可知，有声阅读是通过听新闻、小说等方式进行的阅读，而音乐不属于阅读内容。故选C。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据“Many people like doing audio reading in bed, before going to sleep.”“Some other people would like to do audio reading in the kitchen.”“Audio reading is a favorite while a person is exercising.”等内容可知，很多人在不同场景都喜欢进行有声阅读，说明有声阅读可能很受欢迎。故选A。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。文章主要介绍的是有声阅读这种爱好，所以最有可能在报纸的“爱好”板块读到。故选B。 【8题详解】 篇章结构题。文章第一段引出有声阅读的概念；第二、三、四、五段分别介绍了人们喜欢在睡觉前、厨房、锻炼时等场景进行有声阅读，有声阅读对盲人的帮助。整体结构是总分，故选D。 C Look into the sky at dawn (黎明) or dusk (黄昏). You might see the International Space Station (ISS). It is about 250 miles above (在……上面) you. But you can see its solar panels (电池板) catch the sunlight. The ISS is a space laboratory (实验室) and travels around the earth. In 24 hours, it goes around the earth 16 times. In the past 20 years, about 240 astronauts have traveled to the space station. They’re from 19 countries. Six astronauts are on board at a time. They do science experiments (实验) that they can’t do on the earth. The living and working area is about the size of a six-bedroom house. The space station itself is as long as a football field. The photo below tells you about some of its key parts. 9. Which of the following about the ISS is TRUE? A. Nineteen countries built it. B. It can hold 240 astronauts at a time. C. It is about 250 miles above the moon. D. We might see it from the earth at dawn or dusk. 10. How long does it take the ISS to travel once around the earth? A. 24 hours. B. 16 hours. C. 3 hours. D. 1.5 hours. 11.

Any spaceship can connect with the ISS. C. Modules are almost as big as a six-bedroom house. D. Doing science experiments on the earth is difficult. 【答案】9. D 10. D 11. A 12. C 【解析】 【导语】本文主要介绍了国际空间站的相关情况。 9题详解】 细节理解题。根据“Look into the sky at dawn (黎明) or dusk (黄昏). You might see the International Space Station (ISS).”可知，在黎明或黄昏时，我们可能会看到国际空间站。故选D。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据“In 24 hours, it goes around the earth 16 times.”可知，国际空间站绕地球一圈的时间是24小时除以16次，即1.5小时。故选D。 【11题详解】 细节理解题。根据“RADIATORS send extra heat into space.”可知，散热器将额外的热量送入太空。故选A。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据“MODULES are where astronauts live and work”和“The living and working area is about the size of a six-bedroom house.”可知，国际空间站中的Modules是宇航员生活和工作的地方，大约相当于一栋六卧室的房子。故选C。 D When Courtney Rich set out to run her second marathon (马拉松赛跑) in September 2023, the mom of two said she wanted her children to see her not give up on her dream. However, near the end of the marathon, the 40-year-old started to feel herself struggling. She realized she wouldn’t reach the finish line in her expected (预期的) time. “I could feel my legs slowing down,” Rich said. “That’s when I called my husband and cried, just having a little pity for myself for a minute.” Shortly after that, Rich’s daughter Avery surprised her by showing up to give her mom a much-needed boost (鼓舞). She held her mom’s hand and ran the final part of the marathon with her until they reached the finish line. After the race, Avery told Rich that she simply did what would help her mom at the time. “I was so happy and it just made my heart so full,” Rich said. Rich hoped her daughter could learn something from their shared experience. She told Avery, “This is an unbelievable example of how one little thing can influence (影响) one person in your life. Don’t ever refuse to encourage (鼓励) others because you just never know what kind of difference that will make on people.” 13. The following are four meanings of “struggle” in the dictionary. What does the underlined (划线的) word in the second paragraph mean? a. to fight against somebody b. to argue with somebody c. to move somewhere with difficulty d. to try to get away from somebody A. a B. b C. c D. d 14. Why did Rich cry when she called her husband? A. She had a little pity for herself. B. Her husband would be angry with her. C. Her children wouldn’t love her anymore. D.

What can Avery learn from her mom’s words in the last paragraph? A. A friend is important in our lives. B. Family is an important thing. It’s everything. C. Small encouragement can also have a big difference. D. Don’t give up on your dreams, or your dreams will give up on you. 【答案】13. C 14. A 15. B 16. C 【解析】 【导语】本文通过Courtney Rich在马拉松赛跑中因女儿的鼓励而坚持完成比赛的故事，传达了“小小的鼓励可能对他人产生深远影响”的积极信息。 【13题详解】 词义猜测题。根据“near the end of the marathon, the 40-year-old started to feel herself struggling. She realized she wouldn’t reach the finish line in her expected time. ‘I could feel my legs slowing down,’”可知，Rich在马拉松接近尾声时，感觉自己的腿慢了下来，意识到无法在预期时间内到达终点，说明她跑起来很困难，“struggle”意思是“艰难地移动到某地”，故选C。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据“‘I could feel my legs slowing down,’ Rich said. ‘That’s when I called my husband and cried, just having a little pity for myself for a minute.’”可知，Rich给丈夫打电话哭泣是因为有点自怜，觉得自己很不容易。故选A。 【15题详解】 细节理解题。根据“Rich’s daughter Avery surprised her by showing up…”可知，女儿的出现让Rich感到惊讶。故选B。 【16题详解】 推理判断题。根据“Don’t ever refuse to encourage others… what kind of difference that will make”可知，她想让女儿明白：微小的鼓励也可能对他人产生重大影响。故选C。 第二节 阅读短文，从所给的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，其中有一个多余的选项。 After 106 years, the Antarctic Heritage Trust (南极遗产信托机构) found Captain Scott’s fruitcake and it still “smelled delicious”. Then the news raises a question: Are there other foods that have similar staying power (力)? ____17____ Honey Honey can be kept for a very long time. ____18____ So bacteria (细菌) cannot grow in it. Although honey can go cloudy when opened as the sugars draw in water again, this can be changed by simply warming the honey. Soy sauce (酱油) ____19____ Since it has a lot of salt and is fermented (发酵), if it is unopened, it could be kept long and well. Once opened, how long it will last depends on the temperature it is kept at. Sugar and salt Many of the foods that last for a long time are high in sugar and salt. In fact, they draw water out. So they will create a condition (条件) without water in which bacteria can’t grow. This is why we use salt to make ham (火腿) and sugar to make jam (果酱). Now people have known that there are other kinds of foods, like vinegar and beans, that can be kept for a long time. ____20____ That’s because they contain (包含) things that bacteria love, such as water. So they can only be kept for a short time. A. The answer is: yes, several. B. But most foods do not last very long. C. The more water it has, the shorter it is kept. D. That’s because it’s low in water and high in sugar. E. Usually soy sauce can be kept for at least three years. 【答案】17. A 18. D 19. E 20. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了南极遗产信托机构发现保存106年的水果蛋糕后，探讨了其他具有类似长久保存能力的食物，如蜂蜜、酱油、糖和盐等，并解释了它们能够长期保存的科学原理。 【17题详解】 根据“Then the news raises a question: are there other foods that have similar staying power?”可知，此处在询问是否还有其他食物具有类似的保存能力，需要一个回答问题的句子。选项A“答案是肯定的，有好几种。”直接回答了问题，符合语境。故选A。 【18题详解】 根据“Honey can be kept for a very long time.”可知，蜂蜜可以保存很长时间。其后需要解释原因。选项D“这是因为蜂蜜水分少、含糖量高。”科学解释了蜂蜜能长期保存的原因，且与后文“So bacteria cannot grow in it.”逻辑连贯。故选D。 【19题详解】 根据“Soy sauce”部分，空缺处需补充酱油能长期保存的具体信息。选项E“酱油通常至少可以保存三年。”与后文“if it is unopened, it could be kept long and well”形成具体补充。故选E。 【20题详解】 根据“Now people have known that there are other kinds of foods… that can be kept for a long time.”可知，现在人们知道还有其他可以长期保存的食物。后需转折说明大多数食物无法长期保存。选项B“但大多数食物不能保存很久。”与后文“That’s because they contain… water”形成对比，解释原因。故选B。 六、完形填空（共10小题，每小题1分；满分10分） 阅读短文，理解其大意，从A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 “I hope we’ll study in the same college.

Follow these ways, and then you’ll improve your relationship with them. Spend more time with your parents. Your parents won’t always be around, so try to spend more time with them. This doesn’t mean just sitting in front of the TV together. Instead, you should do more activities with your parents together. By doing them, all of you will feel happy and relaxed. Talk with your parents more often. In order to understand them better, you should talk with them more often. Try to learn more about them. For example, you could ask them about their own childhood. In this way, you will understand them better. Always listen to your parents. This may seem simple, but it’s often harder than you think. Look at your parents when they are talking. Don’t interrupt (打断) them, and then speak clearly when replying to them. Share your feelings with your parents. Sometimes your parents also want to learn more about you. Just do your best to open your heart to them. When possible, talk to them about something at school or what you really want to be in the future. Make your parents feel proud. There are always some ways to make your parents feel good about you. By working hard, you can do well in school or win prizes in games. They will think how lucky they are to have you and be more willing to talk about you in front of others. 1. Who is the passage written for? A. Parents. B. Children. C. Old people. D. Teachers. 2.

Why we should study hard at school D. How to make your parents feel proud B When we talk about reading, we probably think of eyes, because we do the reading by eyes. But we can do some reading by ears, too. And with the development of smartphones, it’s getting easier and easier to do some reading by ears—by listening to news, novels and so on. This is audio reading (有声阅读). We can do audio reading in many places. Many people like doing audio reading in bed, before going to sleep. They like to just lie in bed in darkness before they fall asleep. This would be a great time to do some audio reading. If you read an ordinary (普通的) book, you have to turn on the lights and you have to turn the pages with your hand. Some other people would like to do audio reading in the kitchen. For some people, it’s boring to cook. So they enjoy their time by listening to news or stories. For some others, it’s interesting to cook by listening to instructions (操作指南) made by famous cooks. Audio reading is a favorite while a person is exercising. It allows the mind to be free while the legs, body and arms are kept busy. But be careful. Don’t make yourself and others in danger. Let’s take driving for example. If you pay much attention to (过于关注) listening, you can’t be a good driver. Finally, audio reading is helpful for blind (瞎的) people. It’s difficult for them to do reading in the past. But now, they can do some audio reading easily. 5. According to (根据) the text, it’s NOT audio reading when people listen to ________. A. news B. stories C. music D. novels 6. What can we know from the text? A. Audio reading may be popular. B. Audio reading helps you cook a nice dish. C. Audio reading is difficult for blind people. D. There may be no paper books in the future. 7. In which part of the newspaper can you read the text? A. Health. B. Hobby. C. Study. D. Exercise. 8. How is the text organized? (①=Paragraph 1， ②=Paragraph 2,…) A. B. C. D. C Look into the sky at dawn (黎明) or dusk (黄昏). You might see the International Space Station (ISS). It is about 250 miles above (……上面) you. But you can see its solar panels (电池板) catch the sunlight. The ISS is a space laboratory (实验室) and travels around the earth. In 24 hours, it goes around the earth 16 times. In the past 20 years, about 240 astronauts have traveled to the space station. They’re from 19 countries. Six astronauts are on board at a time. They do science experiments (实验) that they can’t do on the earth. The living and working area is about the size of a six-bedroom house. The space station itself is as long as a football field. The photo below tells you about some of its key parts. 9. Which of the following about the ISS is TRUE? A. Nineteen countries built it. B It can hold 240 astronauts at a time. C. It is about 250 miles above the moon. D We might see it from the earth at dawn or dusk. 10. How long does it take the ISS to travel once around the earth? A. 24 hours. B. 16 hours. C. 3 hours. D. 1.5 hours. 11. The ________ send the extra heat into space. A. radiators B. robotic arm C. panels D. port 12. What can we learn from the passage? A. The ISS only has six key parts. B. Any spaceship can connect with the ISS. C. Modules are almost as big as a six-bedroom house. D. Doing science experiments on the earth is difficult.

However, near the end of the marathon, the 40-year-old started to feel herself struggling. She realized she wouldn’t reach the finish line in her expected (预期的) time. “I could feel my legs slowing down,” Rich said. “That’s when I called my husband and cried, just having a little pity for myself for a minute.” Shortly after that, Rich’s daughter Avery surprised her by showing up to give her mom a much-needed boost (鼓舞). She held her mom’s hand and ran the final part of the marathon with her until they reached the finish line. After the race, Avery told Rich that she simply did what would help her mom at the time. “I was so happy and it just made my heart so full,” Rich said. Rich hoped her daughter could learn something from their shared experience. She told Avery, “This is an unbelievable example of how one little thing can influence (影响) one person in your life. Don’t ever refuse to encourage (鼓励) others because you just never know what kind of difference that will make on people.” 13. The following are four meanings of “struggle” in the dictionary.

Then the news raises a question: Are there other foods that have similar staying power (力)? ____17____ Honey Honey can be kept for a very long time. ____18____ So bacteria (细菌) cannot grow in it. Although honey can go cloudy when opened as the sugars draw in water again, this can be changed by simply warming the honey.

Once opened, how long it will last depends on the temperature it is kept at. Sugar and salt Many of the foods that last for a long time are high in sugar and salt. In fact, they draw water out. So they will create a condition (条件) without water in which bacteria can’t grow. This is why we use salt to make ham (火腿) and sugar to make jam (果酱). Now people have known that there are other kinds of foods, like vinegar and beans, that can be kept for a long time. ____20____ That’s because they contain (包含) things that bacteria love, such as water.
