Here are four iconic acts that continue to thrill audiences worldwide: Lion Dance: The lion dance dates back at least 2,000 years to the Han Dynasty, featuring two performers in a brightly colored lion costume, symbolizing power, wisdom, and good fortune. It is a staple at celebrations like Chinese New Year, weddings, and corporate events, often used to honor special guests. Dragon Dance: Dating back to 180-230 AD, this performance involves 2 to 50 dancers parading a colorful dragon, sometimes up to 70 meters long. Accompanied by drums, cymbals, and gongs, the dragon symbolizes luck, dignity, and power. It is said that the dragon is tied to Yandi, a mythical tribal leader, making it a significant cultural symbol. Chinese Drumming: A high-impact stage show, Chinese drumming features large, ornate drums played by musicians in colorful costumes. With roots dating back nearly 4,000 years, drumming was historically used in celebrations and battles. Today, it remains a favorite at weddings, festivals, and national events. Face Changing (Bian Lian): An amazing act from Sichuan Opera, face-changing involves performers swiftly changing masks with a wave of the hand or fan. It is believed to date back 300 years. They say that the art form developed from a survival technique. People painted colourful designs on their faces to frighten wild animals. Other sources claim that BianLian is a Chinese version of Robin Hood, who stole from the rich and gave to the poor, would change his appearance when met with guards. Passed down through generations, it remains a closely guarded secret, traditionally taught only to males. Our top 4 traditional Chinese acts are just the beginning.

She was whispering, hardly able to breathe. We were on the Tibetan Plateau, at an elevation of 13, 000ft (3, 960m), about 14 hours by rough roads from the nearest proper city. I had recently moved from Australia to Ireland when I decided to take a big risk. I called Rungtiwa, who I had met at a wedding in Thailand and then talked to on Skype from Europe almost every day for four months. I asked her to quit her job in Bangkok and start this nine-week trip through Thailand, Laos, and China. Given the chances we both were taking, I wanted us to find out, as quickly as possible, whether we were meant to be together. I figured such an adventure would quickly provide an answer. It has: right here, in a cold hospital room in the middle of nowhere, I realized that I can’t live without her. I wanted to marry Rungtiwa. Rungtiwa had never traveled before. Her life had been committed to school, then university, then working to help support her family, as is common in Thai culture. But as we traveled together, I was increasingly attracted by her honesty, her patience, her sense of humor, her deep interest in the world around her. I found myself more and more concerned about her physical and emotional safety. Not that we were in any obvious danger — rather, that I couldn’t bear the thought of her being harmed in any way. That explains why, weeks later, I felt so helpless as I watched her breathing for oxygen in a bed in Daocheng, which we reached after 16 hours’ rough ride. Immediately after our trip, I packed up my life in Ireland and moved to Bangkok. 18 months later, we married and now, five years on, we’ve just had our first child. One day, when he’s old enough to understand, I’ll tell our son everything. I’ll explain how he is on this earth — in part, because a near-tragedy made his father see clearly. She is the one. 4. Why did the author plan the Asian journey? A. To escape career pressures. B. To figure out their relationship. C. To experience natural adventures. D. To photograph Tibetan landscape. 5. What worried the author most during the journey? A. Rungtiwa’s all-round safety. B. Finding out Rungtiwa’s personality. C. Rungtiwa’s life experiences in Thai. D. Asking Rungtiwa to give up her job. 6. Which of the following words can best describe Rungtiwa? A. Traditional and energetic. B. Emotional and romantic. C. Curious and humorous. D. Hardworking and grateful. 7. What lesson does the story teach? A. True love unfolds itself in difficulty. B. Altitude sickness can be life-threatening. C. Career should be rearranged for romance. D. Cultural adaptation challenges exist in love. 【答案】4. B 5. A 6. C 7. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，主要讲述了作者与女友的亚洲之旅，以及这段经历如何让他们认清彼此并走向婚姻。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“Given the chances we both were taking, I wanted us to find out, as quickly as possible, whether we were meant to be together. I figured such an adventure would quickly provide an answer. (考虑到我们都在冒险，我想让我们尽快弄清楚，我们是否注定在一起。我想这样的冒险会很快给出答案)”可知，作者计划亚洲之旅是为了弄清楚他们的关系，即他们是否适合在一起。故选B。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“I found myself more and more concerned about her physical and emotional safety. Not that we were in any obvious danger — rather, that I couldn’t bear the thought of her being harmed in any way. (我发现自己越来越关心她的身心健康。倒不是说我们有什么明显的危险，而是我无法忍受她受到任何伤害的想法)”可知，旅途中作者最担心的是Rungtiwa的全方位安全。故选A。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“Her life had been committed to school, then university, then working to help support her family, as is common in Thai culture. But as we traveled together, I was increasingly attracted by her honesty, her patience, her sense of humor, her deep interest in the world around her. (她的生活一直致力于学校，然后是大学，然后工作以帮助支持她的家庭，这在泰国文化中很常见。但随着我们一起旅行，我越来越被她的诚实、耐心、幽默感和她对周围世界的浓厚兴趣所吸引)”可知，Rungtiwa是幽默且对周围世界有好奇心的。故选C。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“I’ll explain how he is on this earth — in part, because a near-tragedy made his father see clearly. She is the one. (我会解释他为什么会来到这个世界上——部分原因是，一场近乎悲剧的事件让他的父亲看清了。她就是那个人)”可推知，这个故事告诉我们真爱在困难中展现。故选A。 C As people’s understanding of climate change increases, so does their wish to act. However, the size of the problems — such as wildfires, melting ice, and long periods without rain — can feel too great to solve. It’s difficult to see how our daily habits connect to protecting animals like polar bears, let alone how we can make a difference. A key way to measure the effects of our actions is through a carbon footprint. Although this idea is becoming more popular (searching “How to reduce my carbon footprint? ” gives 27 million results), many still don't fully grasp it. A carbon footprint refers to the total harm caused by producing goods or activities. For people in wealthy nations, most emissions come from four main areas: home energy use, transportation, food choices, and other purchases (购买) like clothes or electronics. Each choice adds to your footprint. For instance, eating beef increases your food footprint more than being vegetarian. However, someone who drives a fuel-heavy car daily might have a larger footprint than a meat-eater who walks. Calculating this is complex. Take flights: it’s simple to divide fuel use by passengers, but first-class seats take up more space, increasing emissions. Other factors like cargo weight or flight altitude also matter. Other calculations are even harder. Making a car involves mining materials, powering factories, transporting parts, and using machinery — all linked to the car’s raw materials. Because of this complexity, Berners-Lee calls carbon footprints “impossible to calculate exactly”, yet he argues that rough estimates are enough for most people to take action. To lower your footprint, focus on what matters most for your lifestyle. For example, switching to an electric car is better for the environment in Vermont (where they use clean energy from water) than in West Virginia (where coal is the main energy source). As Berners-Lee explains, “Flying might be a small part of someone’s carbon footprint, but for others, it’s the biggest part. Prioritize the largest impact areas. ” 8. What can we infer from the first paragraph? A. People paid little attention to climate change. B. Polar bears are affected by wildfires and melting ice. C. There is a gap between problems and individual actions. D. Different countries’ environmental problems are different. 9. According to the text, what does a “carbon footprint” measure? A. The total cost of producing goods like cars or clothes. B. The carbon emissions coming from wealthy countries. C. The things people use, eat and purchase in their everyday life. D. The amount of greenhouse gases released by human activities. 10. What makes calculating a car’s carbon footprint particularly difficult? A. The color and size of the car. B. The need to track raw materials. C. The preference for electric cars. D. The cost of gas in different countries. 11. What advice does Beriers-Lee give about reducing personal carbon footprints? A. Reduce the largest sources of emissions first. B. Switch to using an electric car in West Virginia. C. Move to countries powered by renewable energy. D. Focus on small daily changes like turning off lights. 【答案】8. C 9. D 10. B 11. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了碳足迹的概念、计算难度以及降低个人碳足迹的方法。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“However, the size of the problems — such as wildfires, melting ice, and long periods without rain — can feel too great to solve. It’s difficult to see how our daily habits connect to protecting animals like polar bears, let alone how we can make a difference. (然而，诸如野火、冰川融化、长期无雨等问题的规模之大，让人感觉难以解决。很难看出我们的日常习惯与保护北极熊等动物有何联系，更不用说我们如何能有所作为了)”可知，问题规模很大，很难看出日常中的个人行动与保护动物有任何联系。由此推知，问题和个人行动之间存在差距。故选C。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“A carbon footprint refers to the total harm caused by producing goods or activities. For people in wealthy nations, most emissions come from four main areas: home energy use, transportation, food choices, and other purchases (购买) like clothes or electronics. (碳足迹指的是生产商品或活动所造成的总危害。对于富裕国家的人来说，大部分排放来自四个主要领域：家庭能源使用、交通、食物选择以及其他购买行为，如衣服或电子产品)”可知，碳足迹衡量的是人类活动释放的温室气体量。故选D。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“Making a car involves mining materials, powering factories, transporting parts, and using machinery — all linked to the car’s raw materials. (制造一辆汽车涉及开采材料、为工厂供电、运输零部件以及使用机械——所有这些都与汽车的原材料有关)”可知，追踪汽车的原材料使得计算汽车的碳足迹特别困难。故选B。 【11题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“As Berners-Lee explains, “Flying might be a small part of someone’s carbon footprint, but for others, it’s the biggest part. Prioritize the largest impact areas.” (正如伯纳斯-李解释的那样，“飞行可能只是某人碳足迹的一小部分，但对其他人来说，它是最大的部分。要优先考虑影响最大的领域。”)”可知，伯纳斯-李建议优先考虑影响最大的领域，即首先减少最大的排放源。故选A。 D Food has always been an integral part of human culture. The way we prepare, consume, and share food reflects our traditions, values, and beliefs. When people from different cultures come together, food becomes a powerful tool for cultural exchange. It allows individuals to share their cooking traditions, learn about new flavors, and appreciate the diversity of cuisines. One example of how food bridges cultural gaps is the popularity of ethnic restaurants. These establishments offer a taste of different cultures, allowing people to explore new cuisines and experience the traditions related to them. Whether it’s a Mexican taqueria, an Indian curry house, or a Japanese sushi bar, these restaurants provide a platform where customers can try new dishes, learn about the ingredients and cooking techniques, and gain a deeper understanding of the culture behind the food. Culinary events also play a crucial role in promoting cultural exchange. These gatherings bring together people from diverse backgrounds, showcasing the richness and diversity of different cuisines. Visitors can try a wide range of dishes, attend cooking demonstrations (演示), and engage in conversations with chefs and food enthusiasts. These events create a sense of community and help develop cross-cultural understanding. Moreover, the act of cooking and sharing food can be a powerful way to connect with others. When we invite someone into our homes and cook a meal for them, we are not only providing their bodies with energy but also sharing a part of our cultural identity. Through food, we can communicate our values, traditions, and heritage. It allows us to break down barriers and build relationships based on mutual respect and appreciation. In today’s globalized world, where people from different cultures often live side by side, food becomes even more important in bridging cultural gaps. It provides a common ground where people can come together, celebrate their differences, and find commonalities. 12. Why are ethnic restaurants popular? A. They serve new food flavors. B. They offer cultural exchange. C. They set up cooking platforms. D. They teach cooking techniques. 13. What do the underlined words “culinary events” in paragraph 4 most likely mean? A. Lectures on healthy eating habits. B. Professional cooking competitions. C. Food-related cultural festivals or activities. D. Cooking classes teaching traditional recipes. 14. How does the author develop the text? A. Using scientific data. B. Using many examples. C. Comparing old and new. D. Quoting famous opinions. 15. What is the main idea of the text? A. Globalization gives cuisines identities. B. Traditional cuisines should be protected. C. Restaurants are the best cultural teachers. D. Sharing food breaks down cultural barriers. 【答案】12. B 13. C 14. B 15. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要阐述了食物在文化交流中的重要作用，指出民族餐馆、烹饪活动等都能借助食物促进文化交流，打破文化障碍。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“One example of how food bridges cultural gaps is the popularity of ethnic restaurants. These establishments offer a taste of different cultures, allowing people to explore new cuisines and experience the traditions related to them.(食物如何弥合文化差距的一个例子是民族餐馆的受欢迎程度。这些场所提供不同文化的风味，让人们探索新的美食并体验与之相关的传统)”可知，民族餐馆受欢迎是因为它们能弥合文化差距，提供文化交流的机会。故选B项。 【13题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第四段中“Culinary events also play a crucial role in promoting cultural exchange. These gatherings bring together people from diverse backgrounds, showcasing the richness and diversity of different cuisines. Visitors can try a wide range of dishes, attend cooking demonstrations, and engage in conversations with chefs and food enthusiasts.(Culinary events在促进文化交流方面也发挥着至关重要的作用。这些聚会将来自不同背景的人聚集在一起，展示了不同美食的丰富性和多样性。游客可以品尝各种各样的菜肴，参加烹饪演示，并与厨师和美食爱好者交流)”和指代关系可知，划线短语“Culinary events”与下文中“These gatherings”构成指代关系，指的是与食物相关的文化节日或活动。故选C项。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“One example of how food bridges cultural gaps is the popularity of ethnic restaurants. These establishments offer a taste of different cultures, allowing people to explore new cuisines and experience the traditions related to them. Whether it’s a Mexican taqueria, an Indian curry house, or a Japanese sushi bar, these restaurants provide a platform where customers can try new dishes, learn about the ingredients and cooking techniques, and gain a deeper understanding of the culture behind the food.(食物如何弥合文化差距的一个例子是民族餐馆的受欢迎程度。这些场所提供不同文化的风味，让人们探索新的美食并体验与之相关的传统。无论是墨西哥玉米卷店、印度咖喱店还是日本寿司店，这些餐馆都为顾客提供了一个可以尝试新菜肴、了解食材和烹饪技巧，并更深入地了解食物背后文化的平台)”以及第四段“Culinary events also play a crucial role in promoting cultural exchange. These gatherings bring together people from diverse backgrounds, showcasing the richness and diversity of different cuisines. Visitors can try a wide range of dishes, attend cooking demonstrations, and engage in conversations with chefs and food enthusiasts. These events create a sense of community and help develop cross cultural understanding.(烹饪活动在促进文化交流方面也起着至关重要的作用。这些聚会将来自不同背景的人聚集在一起，展示了不同美食的丰富性和多样性。游客可以品尝各种各样的菜肴，参加烹饪演示，并与厨师和美食爱好者交流。这些活动营造了一种社区感，有助于增进跨文化理解)”可知，作者是通过列举例子的方式来展开文本。故选B项。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，结合第二段中“When people from different cultures come together, food becomes a powerful tool for cultural exchange.(当来自不同文化背景的人们走到一起时，食物成为文化交流的有力工具)”、第四段中“Culinary events also play a crucial role in promoting cultural exchange.(烹饪活动在促进文化交流方面也发挥着至关重要的作用)”和最后一段中“In today’s globalized world, where people from different cultures often live side by side, food becomes even more important in bridging cultural gaps. It provides a common ground where people can come together, celebrate their differences, and find commonalities.(在当今全球化的世界里，来自不同文化的人经常生活在一起，食物在弥合文化差距方面变得更加重要。它提供了一个人们可以聚在一起、庆祝差异并找到共同点的平台)”可知，本文主要讲的是分享食物能打破文化障碍。故选D项。 第二节（共5小题；每小题2. 5分，满分12. 5分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 How often have you said, “I should exercise, ” but done nothing?

Masses of white, like a million cotton balls, landed on our car and got stuck there. Cody and I were both amazed at the white landscape. In the hour since we'd left Grandma's house in Nebraska to return to our house in Illinois, the weather had gotten worse. The flat Nebraska land gave way to Iowa hills as steep as roller coasters. The roads were slippery (湿滑的). The forecast mentioned snow showers, but this looked more serious than that. Dad spoke to Mom. “I don't like the looks of this. ” He was whispering, but I heard him. “It's getting harder to see anything. ” On either side of the highway, deep ditches (沟渠) were filled with snow. As the car slid on the icy road, I noticed Dad's hands were tight on the steering wheel. As the snow continued to fall heavily, our car struggled to stay on the road. I could feel the tension in the air as my parents exchanged worried glances. At that moment, our car turned toward a ditch suddenly, and Mom gasped. Dad managed to straighten the wheel and stay on the road. My heart beat fast because of nervousness. I pressed my face against the cold window. Tire tracks on the road showed that other cars had also turned toward the ditch. None had ended up down there. I didn't want our car to be the first! If we went down, how would we ever get out? Nobody talked. It was like we were all helping Dad drive by holding our breath. “We need to get off and wait out this storm,” Dad said. “But I can hardly see the road.

Dad spoke to Mom. “I don't like the looks of this. ” He was whispering, but I heard him. “It's getting harder to see anything. (预报提到了阵雪，但这看起来比那更严重。爸爸对妈妈说。“我不喜欢这情况。” 他小声说，但我听到了。“越来越难看清任何东西了)”可知，一开始父母没觉得暴风雪很严重，设空处应填 “serious”做宾语补足语。故填serious。 3. 考查名词。根据文章第一段 “My brother Cody and I were in the back seat playing the guessing game I Spy when the snowstorm started.(当暴风雪开始的时候，我和我的弟弟科迪在后座玩猜谜游戏 “我是间谍”)可知此处应填“snowstorm”做主语。故填snowstorm。 4. 细节理解题。根据文章第一段 “My brother Cody and I were in the back seat playing the guessing game I Spy when the snowstorm started.(当暴风雪开始的时候，我和我的弟弟科迪在后座玩猜谜游戏 “我是间谍”)”可知暴风雪开始时作者和弟弟正在玩猜谜游戏，用过去进行时，设空处应填“were playing”。故填were playing。 5．考查名词。根据文章第一段 “Cody and I were both amazed at the white landscape.(科迪和我都对这白色的景色感到惊讶)”可知，landscape 和 scenery 意思相近，设空处应填“scenery”作宾语。故填scenery。 6. 考查动词。根据文章第五段 “As the snow continued to fall heavily, our car struggled to stay on the road.(随着雪继续下得很大，我们的车努力保持在公路上)”可知，雪持续下得很大，with + 宾语 + 现在分词，设空处应填“continuing”表主动。故填continuing。 7. 考查形容词。根据文章第五段 “As the snow continued to fall heavily, our car struggled to stay on the road.(随着雪继续下得很大，我们的车努力保持在公路上)”可知，爸爸很难让车保持在路上，设空处应填“hard”作表语。故填hard。 8. 考查形容词。根据文章第五段 “I could feel the tension in the air as my parents exchanged worried glances.(当我的父母交换担忧的眼神时，我能感觉到空气中的紧张气氛)”可知，父母很担心，be worried about “担心”，设空处应填“worried”作表语。故填worried。 9. 考查副词。根据文章第五段 “At that moment, our car turned toward a ditch suddenly, and Mom gasped.(就在这时，我们的车突然转向一条沟渠，妈妈倒吸了一口气)”可知，车突然转向沟渠，设空处应填“suddenly”做状语。故填suddenly。 10. 考查动词。根据文章倒数第二段 ““We need to get off and wait out this storm, ” Dad said.(“们需要下车等待这场暴风雪过去” 爸爸说)”可知，爸爸建议下车等待暴风雪过去，suggest doing sth “建议做某事”，设空处应填“getting off”作宾语。故填getting off。 【47题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段 “The flat Nebraska land gave way to Iowa hills as steep as roller coasters.

(平坦的内布拉斯加州的土地变成了像过山车一样陡峭的爱荷华州的山丘。道路很湿滑)”以及第三段 “It's getting harder to see anything.(越来越难看清任何东西了)”和第四段 “On either side of the highway, deep ditches (沟渠) were filled with snow.(在公路的两边，深沟渠里都积满了雪)”可知，大雪使道路湿滑，爱荷华州的山丘很陡峭，很难看清东西，公路两旁满是积雪的深沟渠增加了危险，这些都使开车变得困难。故答案为The heavy snow made the roads slippery, the Iowa hills were steep, it was hard to see things and there were deep ditches filled with snow on either side of the highway. 【48题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第五段“At that moment, our car turned toward a ditch suddenly, and Mom gasped. Dad managed to straighten the wheel and stay on the road. My heart beat fast because of nervousness.(就在这时，我们的车突然转向一条沟渠，妈妈倒吸了一口气。爸爸设法把方向盘扶正并保持在公路上。因为紧张，我的心跳得很快)”可知，当车转向沟渠时，作者因为紧张心跳得很快，所以作者感到非常紧张。故答案为The author felt very nervous. 【49题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章倒数第二段 ““We need to get off and wait out this storm, ” Dad said. “But I can hardly see the road. Let alone an exit. (“我们需要下车等待这场暴风雪过去，” 爸爸说。“但我几乎看不见路。更不用说出口了”)”以及前文描述的危险情况（大雪使道路湿滑、难看清路、车差点滑进沟渠等)”可知，爸爸会试图找个地方下路并等待暴风雪过去，因为在下大雪的情况下开车太危险了，车有掉进沟渠的危险。故答案为Dad would try to find a place to get off the road and wait out the storm because it was too dangerous to drive on the road with the heavy snow and the car was in danger of getting into the ditch. 第五部分 写作（满分20分） 50. 假定你是李华，你的英国笔友Tom打算到中国游玩，来信请你给他推荐一个景点。请你写一封回信，内容包括： 1. 景点简介(如名称、地理位置、特色等)； 2. 推荐的理由； 3. 表达欢迎与祝愿。 注意：1. 词数100左右； 2. 可适当增加细节，以使行文连贯。 Dear Tom, __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Yours, Li Hua 【答案】Dear Tom, I’m glad to hear that you’re planning to visit China.

Here are four iconic acts that continue to thrill audiences worldwide: Lion Dance: The lion dance dates back at least 2,000 years to the Han Dynasty, featuring two performers in a brightly colored lion costume, symbolizing power, wisdom, and good fortune. It is a staple at celebrations like Chinese New Year, weddings, and corporate events, often used to honor special guests. Dragon Dance: Dating back to 180-230 AD, this performance involves 2 to 50 dancers parading a colorful dragon, sometimes up to 70 meters long. Accompanied by drums, cymbals, and gongs, the dragon symbolizes luck, dignity, and power. It is said that the dragon is tied to Yandi, a mythical tribal leader, making it a significant cultural symbol. Chinese Drumming: A high-impact stage show, Chinese drumming features large, ornate drums played by musicians in colorful costumes. With roots dating back nearly 4,000 years, drumming was historically used in celebrations and battles. Today, it remains a favorite at weddings, festivals, and national events. Face Changing (Bian Lian): An amazing act from Sichuan Opera, face-changing involves performers swiftly changing masks with a wave of the hand or fan. It is believed to date back 300 years. They say that the art form developed from a survival technique. People painted colourful designs on their faces to frighten wild animals. Other sources claim that BianLian is a Chinese version of Robin Hood, who stole from the rich and gave to the poor, would change his appearance when met with guards. Passed down through generations, it remains a closely guarded secret, traditionally taught only to males. Our top 4 traditional Chinese acts are just the beginning. There are many more cultural performances to explore, such as oriental dance, martial arts, Chinese opera, and music. We work with artists worldwide to bring these traditions to life. Whether you need entertainment for Chinese New Year, a cultural event, or creative inspiration, contact us today to discover exciting options that we offer to meet your needs. 1.

What is special about the Face Changing (Bian Lian) performance? A. It used to be a survival technique. B. It is performed to honor special guests. C. It is traditionally taught only to women. D. It symbolizes luck, wisdom, and power. 3. What is the purpose of the text? A. To explore traditional Chinese culture. B. To bring Chinese traditions back to life. C.

She was whispering, hardly able to breathe. We were on the Tibetan Plateau, at an elevation of 13, 000ft (3, 960m), about 14 hours by rough roads from the nearest proper city. I had recently moved from Australia to Ireland when I decided to take a big risk. I called Rungtiwa, who I had met at a wedding in Thailand and then talked to on Skype from Europe almost every day for four months. I asked her to quit her job in Bangkok and start this nine-week trip through Thailand, Laos, and China. Given the chances we both were taking, I wanted us to find out, as quickly as possible, whether we were meant to be together. I figured such an adventure would quickly provide an answer. It has: right here, in a cold hospital room in the middle of nowhere, I realized that I can’t live without her. I wanted to marry Rungtiwa. Rungtiwa had never traveled before. Her life had been committed to school, then university, then working to help support her family, as is common in Thai culture. But as we traveled together, I was increasingly attracted by her honesty, her patience, her sense of humor, her deep interest in the world around her. I found myself more and more concerned about her physical and emotional safety. Not that we were in any obvious danger — rather, that I couldn’t bear the thought of her being harmed in any way. That explains why, weeks later, I felt so helpless as I watched her breathing for oxygen in a bed in Daocheng, which we reached after 16 hours’ rough ride. Immediately after our trip, I packed up my life in Ireland and moved to Bangkok. 18 months later, we married and now, five years on, we’ve just had our first child. One day, when he’s old enough to understand, I’ll tell our son everything. I’ll explain how he is on this earth — in part, because a near-tragedy made his father see clearly. She is the one. 4. Why did the author plan the Asian journey? A. To escape career pressures. B. To figure out their relationship. C. To experience natural adventures. D. To photograph Tibetan landscape. 5. What worried the author most during the journey? A. Rungtiwa’s all-round safety. B. Finding out Rungtiwa’s personality. C Rungtiwa’s life experiences in Thai. D. Asking Rungtiwa to give up her job. 6. Which of the following words can best describe Rungtiwa? A. Traditional and energetic. B. Emotional and romantic. C. Curious and humorous. D. Hardworking and grateful. 7. What lesson does the story teach? A. True love unfolds itself in difficulty. B. Altitude sickness can be life-threatening. C. Career should be rearranged for romance. D. Cultural adaptation challenges exist in love. C As people’s understanding of climate change increases, so does their wish to act. However, the size of the problems — such as wildfires, melting ice, and long periods without rain — can feel too great to solve. It’s difficult to see how our daily habits connect to protecting animals like polar bears, let alone how we can make a difference. A key way to measure the effects of our actions is through a carbon footprint. Although this idea is becoming more popular (searching “How to reduce my carbon footprint? ” gives 27 million results), many still don't fully grasp it. A carbon footprint refers to the total harm caused by producing goods or activities. For people in wealthy nations, most emissions come from four main areas: home energy use, transportation, food choices, and other purchases (购买) like clothes or electronics. Each choice adds to your footprint. For instance, eating beef increases your food footprint more than being vegetarian. However, someone who drives a fuel-heavy car daily might have a larger footprint than a meat-eater who walks. Calculating this is complex. Take flights: it’s simple to divide fuel use by passengers, but first-class seats take up more space, increasing emissions. Other factors like cargo weight or flight altitude also matter. Other calculations are even harder. Making a car involves mining materials, powering factories, transporting parts, and using machinery — all linked to the car’s raw materials. Because of this complexity, Berners-Lee calls carbon footprints “impossible to calculate exactly”, yet he argues that rough estimates are enough for most people to take action. To lower your footprint, focus on what matters most for your lifestyle. For example, switching to an electric car is better for the environment in Vermont (where they use clean energy from water) than in West Virginia (where coal is the main energy source). As Berners-Lee explains, “Flying might be a small part of someone’s carbon footprint, but for others, it’s the biggest part. Prioritize the largest impact areas. ” 8. What can we infer from the first paragraph? A People paid little attention to climate change. B. Polar bears are affected by wildfires and melting ice. C There is a gap between problems and individual actions. D. Different countries’ environmental problems are different. 9. According to the text, what does a “carbon footprint” measure? A. The total cost of producing goods like cars or clothes. B. The carbon emissions coming from wealthy countries. C. The things people use, eat and purchase in their everyday life. D. The amount of greenhouse gases released by human activities. 10. What makes calculating a car’s carbon footprint particularly difficult? A. The color and size of the car. B. The need to track raw materials. C. The preference for electric cars. D. The cost of gas in different countries. 11. What advice does Beriers-Lee give about reducing personal carbon footprints? A. Reduce the largest sources of emissions first. B. Switch to using an electric car in West Virginia. C. Move to countries powered by renewable energy. D. Focus on small daily changes like turning off lights. D Food has always been an integral part of human culture. The way we prepare, consume, and share food reflects our traditions, values, and beliefs. When people from different cultures come together, food becomes a powerful tool for cultural exchange. It allows individuals to share their cooking traditions, learn about new flavors, and appreciate the diversity of cuisines. One example of how food bridges cultural gaps is the popularity of ethnic restaurants. These establishments offer a taste of different cultures, allowing people to explore new cuisines and experience the traditions related to them. Whether it’s a Mexican taqueria, an Indian curry house, or a Japanese sushi bar, these restaurants provide a platform where customers can try new dishes, learn about the ingredients and cooking techniques, and gain a deeper understanding of the culture behind the food. Culinary events also play a crucial role in promoting cultural exchange. These gatherings bring together people from diverse backgrounds, showcasing the richness and diversity of different cuisines. Visitors can try a wide range of dishes, attend cooking demonstrations (演示), and engage in conversations with chefs and food enthusiasts. These events create a sense of community and help develop cross-cultural understanding. Moreover, the act of cooking and sharing food can be a powerful way to connect with others. When we invite someone into our homes and cook a meal for them, we are not only providing their bodies with energy but also sharing a part of our cultural identity. Through food, we can communicate our values, traditions, and heritage. It allows us to break down barriers and build relationships based on mutual respect and appreciation. In today’s globalized world, where people from different cultures often live side by side, food becomes even more important in bridging cultural gaps. It provides a common ground where people can come together, celebrate their differences, and find commonalities. 12. Why are ethnic restaurants popular? A. They serve new food flavors. B. They offer cultural exchange. C. They set up cooking platforms. D. They teach cooking techniques. 13. What do the underlined words “culinary events” in paragraph 4 most likely mean? A. Lectures on healthy eating habits. B. Professional cooking competitions. C. Food-related cultural festivals or activities. D. Cooking classes teaching traditional recipes. 14. How does the author develop the text? A. Using scientific data. B. Using many examples. C. Comparing old and new. D. Quoting famous opinions. 15. What is the main idea of the text? A. Globalization gives cuisines identities. B. Traditional cuisines should be protected. C. Restaurants are the best cultural teachers. D. Sharing food breaks down cultural barriers. 第二节（共5小题；每小题2. 5分，满分12. 5分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 How often have you said, “I should exercise, ” but done nothing?

Masses of white, like a million cotton balls, landed on our car and got stuck there. Cody and I were both amazed at the white landscape. In the hour since we'd left Grandma's house in Nebraska to return to our house in Illinois, the weather had gotten worse. The flat Nebraska land gave way to Iowa hills as steep as roller coasters. The roads were slippery (湿滑的). The forecast mentioned snow showers, but this looked more serious than that.

I could feel the tension in the air as my parents exchanged worried glances. At that moment, our car turned toward a ditch suddenly, and Mom gasped. Dad managed to straighten the wheel and stay on the road. My heart beat fast because of nervousness. I pressed my face against the cold window. Tire tracks on the road showed that other cars had also turned toward the ditch. None had ended up down there. I didn't want our car to be the first! If we went down, how would we ever get out? Nobody talked. It was like we were all helping Dad drive by holding our breath. “We need to get off and wait out this storm” Dad said. “But I can hardly see the road.
