Lu Hong, a man with cerebral palsy (脑瘫) from Suzhou, Jiangsu Province, has been named China’s “Forrest Gump” after becoming a successful factory owner who employs disabled people.
After graduating from a vocational school, he faced difficulties finding a job. Later, he started to learn to make household utensils (器具) and worked at his uncle’s factory. For two years, Lu traveled 50 kilometers every weekday as an employee of the factory. He said thanks to biking during that time, he was able to improve his shape and started to look like a normal person.
Lu had been trying to start his own business since 2002, having been a stall owner, a bicycle repairer, and owner of a newsstand, a telephone shop and a video shop. He made some money from these businesses.
In 2012, Lu opened a photo studio and skillfully mastered Photoshop by himself. Many people came to his studio to have their photos shot and asked if he provided photo albums. Seeing this as an opportunity, Lu decided to make photo albums himself. He opened a workshop. However, the business didn’t get off to a good start.
When he ran out of ideas, the local disabled people’s association came to help by finding an abandoned school building as a potential site for Lu to operate his business. With such assistance, Lu managed to grow his business quickly.
“I would insist on doing things. As long as I start to engage in one thing, I’ll try my best to do it,” says Lu.
In 2022, the business turnover of Lu’s factory reached over 13 million yuan. Lu has generously provided jobs for disabled job seekers. Among 42 employees of his paper product factory, 30 are people with disabilities. He not only teaches them how to work, but also encourages them to give full play to their potential. His business not only enables him to support his own family but also helps his employees get rid of poverty.
24. In what way did Lu Hong improve his physical condition?
A. By biking to work every weekday. B. By mastering Photoshop.
C. By walking 50 kilometers daily. D. By working at his uncle’s factory.
25. What did Lu Hong get from the association?
A. Financial support. B. Employment opportunities.
C. Training in using Photoshop. D. A place for his business.

C. Patient and considerate. D. Determined and helpful.

In 1973, when Melissa Greene was in 6th grade, her parents bought the first flat on Hutchinson Island. The first time she ran down to the wild shore, she was shocked by the contrast to their earlier beach trips to Daytona, a people-packed spectacle of cars. On Hutchinson, the spectacle was the seashells (海贝). Today, on the same stretch of beach, she rarely finds large whole shells.
Among the most amazing natural objects, seashells represent both the surprise and wonder still promised by a trip to the beach - and the major changes underway on our coasts.
Many of the largest and best-known marine mollusks (海洋软体动物) - the animal architects that build seashells - have declined under fishing pressure. They are also harmed by rising ocean temperatures, and by pollution and runoff from the land. And they can be displaced by the severe erosion (侵蚀) caused by inlets - a growing problem on Hutchinson Island - as well as efforts to repair eroded beaches by recovering lost sand.
Twenty-five years ago, Sanibel Island became the first city in the U. S. to ban (禁止) “live shelling”, the practice of collecting and killing mollusks for their shells. The move to protect the individual lives of soft-bodied mollusks seems almost strange given ocean warming and other “tough realities of the changing world,” acknowledges José H. Leal, science director at Sanibel’s Bailey-Matthews National Shell Museum.
But helping beach goers appreciate the animals inside the shell as much as the shiny exterior turns out to be a crucial step toward helping them understand what’s happening in the sea, Leal says. “If people understand the complexity of these animals and their importance, they will also realize the need to protect marine environments.”
Delaware Seashore State Park is taking so-called low-impact beach combing (赶海) a step further: asking visitors to leave empty shells alone, too. At the park, signs advise visitors to leave shells where they lie or take a photo of a marine creature in the sand. After all, the point of enjoying nature is that it is in a natural state.
28. What impressed Melissa Greene on Hutchinson Island when she was young?
A. The seashells. B. The tourists. C. The flats. D. The cars.
29. What is paragraph 3 mainly about?
A. The dangers marine mollusks face.
B. The changes seashells have experienced.
C. The efforts made to save marine mollusks.
D. The current situation of Hutchinson Island.
30. What does José H. Leal think of banning “live shelling”?
A. It slows down ocean warming.
B. It keeps people away from beaches.
C. It popularizes the collecting of seashells.
D. It raises people’s awareness of ocean protection.
31. What is the purpose of Delaware Seashore State Park’s advice?
A. To provide habitat for small creatures. B. To protect visitors from being harmed.
C. To attract marine creatures to the beach. D. To preserve the natural state of the beach.
D
An art exhibition that combines scientific knowledge with creative inspiration was recently presented in Albany. The exhibition featured artworks from MIX Artists in the Great Southern that showcased unique art-science cooperation between contemporary artists and marine (海洋的) scientists working in the region. The waters of the south coast and around Albany are well-known for their unique diversity of plants and animals, and the works conveyed important marine science knowledge and current research to a broad audience.
The Western Australian Marine Science Institution (WAMSI) provided opportunities for the artists to learn from marine scientists through talks, presentations and field trips. The artists also followed up with ongoing self-research and observation of their environment.
Dr Jenny Shaw, WAMSI Research Director, said, “It’s been a great opportunity to move science into the community and also see different interpretations of marine research topics.” The scientists benefited from explaining their work to different audiences, and the interest from the artists was incredibly high, contributing to a shared appreciation for the marine environment.
MIX Artists coordinator Annette Davis said the cooperation gave the artists fantastic insight into another world, and working with the scientists was fundamental to how the artworks had developed. “Responding with intuition (直觉), curiosity and imagination, the artists have interpreted their findings through chosen materials and techniques and created artworks to help move this understanding into the wider community,” Davis said.
The pursuit of marine science inspired some artists, whose artworks often centre around the finely-balanced coastal environment and the impact of structural change. Catherine Higham used seagrass and bamboo to make a large listening horn (喇叭) to listen to underwater life. Christine Baker’s work, titled Micro Plastic Menu, was inspired by a talk on microplastic pollution and how it enters food chains.
32. How did WAMSI assist the artists?
A. By aiding in materials creation. B. By providing technical guidance.
C. By offering a platform for art sales. D. By organizing educational events.
33. What can we infer from the text?
A. The art exhibition of scientists is very eye-catching.
B. People are much more interested in science than in art.
C. The participation of artists contributes to the spread of marine knowledge.
D. Artists should go into the classroom to learn cultural knowledge.
34. Why is the work Micro Plastic Menu mentioned in the text?
A. To highlight the personal experiences of the artist.
B. To illustrate that artists draw inspiration from science.
C. To demonstrate the use of technology in contemporary art.
D. To emphasize the role of art in environmental conservation.
35. Which is the best title for the text?
A. An Art Exhibition by a Famous Marine Artist
B. A Cooperative Art and Marine Science Exhibition
C. An Exhibition Showcasing Traditional Art Forms
D. A Conference Discussing Marine Science Advancements

67. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
I was working the night shift at the hospital on Thanksgiving. The waiting room stood empty except for an old clock ticking on the wall and a silent TV in the corner. Cold rain beat against the windows as I restocked bandages. Suddenly, the door opened, and an old man entered, holding a small boy. Both were wet from the storm, their shoes leaving watery footprints on the floor.
The boy’s grandfather said he had a fever, but the child’s skin felt cool. After a quick check, I found no signs of illness. My eyes fell on their worn clothes — the boy’s socks didn’t match, and the old man’s coat had holes. My coworker silently handed me a note: No electricity at their home for seven days. I understood their real trouble.
In the waiting area, the boy stared at the TV showing a Thanksgiving feast. His grandfather offered him a piece of dry bread. Without speaking, I brought two cups of hot milk from the kitchen and found thick blankets in the storage room. The old man tried to refuse, but I explained it was hospital policy to help on holidays.
I led them to a quiet room with a heater. While the boy changed into clean hospital clothes, I made a bed using spare blankets. The old man thanked me quietly, his voice shaking. Later, I contacted a local charity group, who promised to help restore their electricity the next morning.
After I doing this, I noticed the boy seemed a bit restless and out of place. I remembered how scary hospitals could be for children, so I took some crayons and paper from the storage room. I handed them to the boy, hoping it would help him feel more at ease. He took them with a shy smile and began to draw. Seeing him occupied and content made me feel a little warmer inside.
注意:1. 续写词数应为150个左右;
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
After daybreak, Grandpa folded the blanket carefully.

【原文】W: My guest today is the actor and film director Charles Martin. Welcome, Charles. Now let’s start at the beginning. You played a part in the TV series Cowboys for six years.
M: That’s right. During that time, I got to a low period with little work. I could hardly pay the bills, so I worked steadily for six years.
W: Then you were discovered by producer Mario and acted in some popular films. What was your first film?
M: Well, it was set in nineteenth-century Mexico. Because of Mario’s contacts, most scenes of the movie were filmed in Spain. It was my first time to travel outside of America.
W: Later you turned to directing. Was that something you’d wanted to do for a long time?
M: Yeah, but I had to wait for the right opportunity with the film The Good Cop. It was an exciting detective story. Part of the joy of shooting a movie is seeing how great actors do it. It’s like conducting a choir. I became a better actor by getting behind the camera.

【解析】
【原文】M: Right, thanks for taking part in the bird count this weekend. The weather report is for cloudy skies this weekend — quite good after the recent storm. You can leave your sun cream at home.
Nowadays, people don’t record what they see on paper. It’s all done through a mobile app called e-Bird. Then, on the day of the bird count, you need to bring pictures of the birds you’re hoping to see. You can download the pictures from a website called Nest Watch. Also, let me remind you that the bird count is not a race to find the most birds possible. It doesn’t matter if your totals are different. Compare your notes with others. Finally, when you’re ready to submit all the data, have a look at the pictures you’ve taken. Choose the best one. Submit it with your data — and you might get a prize if yours is the best one. And, thanks to some funding from the local community, we’ve got a bit of money, so I’ll bring some sandwiches and biscuits for everyone. Next week, we are going to place bird boxes in the wood.

Lu Hong, a man with cerebral palsy (脑瘫) from Suzhou, Jiangsu Province, has been named China’s “Forrest Gump” after becoming a successful factory owner who employs disabled people.
After graduating from a vocational school, he faced difficulties finding a job. Later, he started to learn to make household utensils (器具) and worked at his uncle’s factory. For two years, Lu traveled 50 kilometers every weekday as an employee of the factory. He said thanks to biking during that time, he was able to improve his shape and started to look like a normal person.
Lu had been trying to start his own business since 2002, having been a stall owner, a bicycle repairer, and owner of a newsstand, a telephone shop and a video shop. He made some money from these businesses.
In 2012, Lu opened a photo studio and skillfully mastered Photoshop by himself. Many people came to his studio to have their photos shot and asked if he provided photo albums. Seeing this as an opportunity, Lu decided to make photo albums himself. He opened a workshop. However, the business didn’t get off to a good start.
When he ran out of ideas, the local disabled people’s association came to help by finding an abandoned school building as a potential site for Lu to operate his business. With such assistance, Lu managed to grow his business quickly.
“I would insist on doing things. As long as I start to engage in one thing, I’ll try my best to do it,” says Lu.
In 2022, the business turnover of Lu’s factory reached over 13 million yuan. Lu has generously provided jobs for disabled job seekers. Among 42 employees of his paper product factory, 30 are people with disabilities. He not only teaches them how to work, but also encourages them to give full play to their potential. His business not only enables him to support his own family but also helps his employees get rid of poverty.

【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。讲述了陆鸿罹患脑瘫,但他通过不懈努力,不仅自己成为了一名成功的企业家,还积极回馈社会,为残疾人提供了就业机会。
【24题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“For two years, Lu traveled 50 kilometers every weekday as an employee of the factory. He said thanks to biking during that time, he was able to improve his shape and started to look like a normal person. (两年来,陆作为工厂的一名员工,每个工作日都要走50公里。他说,多亏了那段时间骑自行车,他能够改善自己的体型,开始看起来像个正常人)”可知,陆鸿每周工作日骑行50公里去上班,从而改善了他的身体状况。故选A。
【25题详解】
细节理解题。根据第五段“When he ran out of ideas, the local disabled people’s association came to help by finding an abandoned school building as a potential site for Lu to operate his business. (当他无计可施时,当地残疾人协会来帮忙,找到了一座废弃的校舍,作为陆经营企业的潜在地点。在这样的帮助下,陆的生意迅速增长)”可知,当陆鸿陷入困境时,当地残疾人协会帮助他找到了一个废弃的学校,作为他经营业务的场所。故选D。
【26题详解】
词句猜测题。根据最后一段“In 2022, the business turnover of Lu’s factory reached over 13 million yuan.(2022年,陆鸿工厂的生意turnover超过1300万元)”可知,此处介绍的是陆鸿工厂的营业额,即售出货物的总价值,所以turnover的意思是“售出货物的总价值”。故选B。
【27题详解】
推理判断题。根据第六段““I would insist on doing things. As long as I start to engage in one thing, I’ll try my best to do it,” says Lu.(陆说:“我会坚持做事情。只要我开始做一件事,我就会尽力去做。”)”及最后一段“Lu has generously provided jobs for disabled job seekers. (陆慷慨地为残疾求职者提供工作)”可推断,陆鸿是一个意志坚定且乐于助人的人。故选D。
C
In 1973, when Melissa Greene was in 6th grade, her parents bought the first flat on Hutchinson Island. The first time she ran down to the wild shore, she was shocked by the contrast to their earlier beach trips to Daytona, a people-packed spectacle of cars. On Hutchinson, the spectacle was the seashells (海贝). Today, on the same stretch of beach, she rarely finds large whole shells.
Among the most amazing natural objects, seashells represent both the surprise and wonder still promised by a trip to the beach - and the major changes underway on our coasts.
Many of the largest and best-known marine mollusks (海洋软体动物) - the animal architects that build seashells - have declined under fishing pressure. They are also harmed by rising ocean temperatures, and by pollution and runoff from the land. And they can be displaced by the severe erosion (侵蚀) caused by inlets - a growing problem on Hutchinson Island - as well as efforts to repair eroded beaches by recovering lost sand.
Twenty-five years ago, Sanibel Island became the first city in the U. S. to ban (禁止) “live shelling”, the practice of collecting and killing mollusks for their shells. The move to protect the individual lives of soft-bodied mollusks seems almost strange given ocean warming and other “tough realities of the changing world,” acknowledges José H. Leal, science director at Sanibel’s Bailey-Matthews National Shell Museum.
But helping beach goers appreciate the animals inside the shell as much as the shiny exterior turns out to be a crucial step toward helping them understand what’s happening in the sea, Leal says. “If people understand the complexity of these animals and their importance, they will also realize the need to protect marine environments.”
Delaware Seashore State Park is taking so-called low-impact beach combing (赶海) a step further: asking visitors to leave empty shells alone, too. At the park, signs advise visitors to leave shells where they lie or take a photo of a marine creature in the sand. After all, the point of enjoying nature is that it is in a natural state.
28. What impressed Melissa Greene on Hutchinson Island when she was young?
A. The seashells. B. The tourists. C. The flats. D. The cars.
29. What is paragraph 3 mainly about?
A. The dangers marine mollusks face.
B. The changes seashells have experienced.
C. The efforts made to save marine mollusks.
D. The current situation of Hutchinson Island.
30. What does José H. Leal think of banning “live shelling”?
A. It slows down ocean warming.
B. It keeps people away from beaches.
C. It popularizes the collecting of seashells.
D. It raises people’s awareness of ocean protection.
31. What is the purpose of Delaware Seashore State Park’s advice?
A. To provide habitat for small creatures. B. To protect visitors from being harmed.
C. To attract marine creatures to the beach. D. To preserve the natural state of the beach.
【答案】28. A 29. A 30. D 31. D
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。主要介绍了海贝壳的现状及其面临的威胁,并探讨了保护海贝壳的重要性。
【28题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中“The first time she ran down to the wild shore, she was shocked by the contrast to their earlier beach trips to Daytona, a people-packed spectacle of cars. On Hutchinson, the spectacle was the seashells (海贝). (当她第一次跑到荒凉的海岸时,她被与他们之前去代托纳海滩旅行的对比所震惊,那里挤满了人,到处都是汽车。在哈钦森岛上,最引人注目的是海贝。)”可知,当Melissa Greene第一次跑到哈钦森岛的野生海岸时,让她印象深刻的是那里的海贝。故选A项。
【29题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第三段“Many of the largest and best-known marine mollusks (海洋软体动物) - the animal architects that build seashells - have declined under fishing pressure. They are also harmed by rising ocean temperatures, and by pollution and runoff from the land. And they can be displaced by the severe erosion (侵蚀) caused by inlets - a growing problem on Hutchinson Island - as well as efforts to repair eroded beaches by recovering lost sand. (许多最大和最著名的海洋软体动物——建造贝壳的动物建筑师——在捕捞压力下数量减少了。它们还受到海洋温度上升、污染和陆地径流的伤害。他们可能会因为进水口造成的严重侵蚀而流离失所——这是哈钦森岛日益严重的问题——以及通过回收流失的沙子来修复被侵蚀的海滩的努力。)”可知,许多大型且知名的海洋软体动物在捕鱼压力下数量减少,还受到海洋温度上升、陆地污染和径流的伤害,以及因海湾造成的严重侵蚀和修复侵蚀海滩的措施的影响,所以第三段主要讲的是海洋软体动物面临的危险(The dangers marine mollusks face)。故选A项。
【30题详解】
推理判断题。根据第五段“But helping beach goers appreciate the animals inside the shell as much as the shiny exterior turns out to be a crucial step toward helping them understand what’s happening in the sea, Leal says. “If people understand the complexity of these animals and their importance, they will also realize the need to protect marine environments.” (但Leal说,帮助海滩游客欣赏贝壳里的动物,就像欣赏闪亮的外表一样,是帮助他们了解海洋中正在发生的事情的关键一步。“如果人们了解这些动物的复杂性和它们的重要性,他们也会意识到保护海洋环境的必要性。”)”可知,José H. Leal认为禁止 “活贝壳采集” 能帮助海滩游客像欣赏贝壳闪亮的外表一样欣赏里面的动物,这是帮助他们了解海洋中正在发生的事情的关键一步,如果人们了解这些动物的复杂性和重要性,他们就会意识到保护海洋环境的必要性,所以他认为禁止 “活贝壳采集” 能提高人们的海洋保护意识(It raises people’s awareness of ocean protection)。故选D项。
【31题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“Delaware Seashore State Park is taking so-called low-impact beach combing (赶海) a step further: asking visitors to leave empty shells alone, too. At the park, signs advise visitors to leave shells where they lie or take a photo of a marine creature in the sand. After all, the point of enjoying nature is that it is in a natural state. (特拉华海岸州立公园(Delaware Seashore State Park)正在对所谓的低影响海滩进行更深入的梳理:要求游客也不要碰空贝壳。在公园里,指示牌建议游客把贝壳留在原地,或者给沙滩上的海洋生物拍照。毕竟,享受自然的意义在于它处于一种自然的状态。)”可知,特拉华州海滨州立公园让游客留下空贝壳,建议游客让贝壳留在原地或给沙滩上的海洋生物拍照,因为享受自然的关键是它处于自然状态,所以该公园建议的目的是保护海滩的自然状态(To preserve the natural state of the beach)。故选D项。
D
An art exhibition that combines scientific knowledge with creative inspiration was recently presented in Albany. The exhibition featured artworks from MIX Artists in the Great Southern that showcased unique art-science cooperation between contemporary artists and marine (海洋的) scientists working in the region. The waters of the south coast and around Albany are well-known for their unique diversity of plants and animals, and the works conveyed important marine science knowledge and current research to a broad audience.
The Western Australian Marine Science Institution (WAMSI) provided opportunities for the artists to learn from marine scientists through talks, presentations and field trips. The artists also followed up with ongoing self-research and observation of their environment.
Dr Jenny Shaw, WAMSI Research Director, said, “It’s been a great opportunity to move science into the community and also see different interpretations of marine research topics.” The scientists benefited from explaining their work to different audiences, and the interest from the artists was incredibly high, contributing to a shared appreciation for the marine environment.
MIX Artists coordinator Annette Davis said the cooperation gave the artists fantastic insight into another world, and working with the scientists was fundamental to how the artworks had developed. “Responding with intuition (直觉), curiosity and imagination, the artists have interpreted their findings through chosen materials and techniques and created artworks to help move this understanding into the wider community,” Davis said.
The pursuit of marine science inspired some artists, whose artworks often centre around the finely-balanced coastal environment and the impact of structural change. Catherine Higham used seagrass and bamboo to make a large listening horn (喇叭) to listen to underwater life. Christine Baker’s work, titled Micro Plastic Menu, was inspired by a talk on microplastic pollution and how it enters food chains.
32. How did WAMSI assist the artists?
A. By aiding in materials creation. B. By providing technical guidance.
C. By offering a platform for art sales. D. By organizing educational events.
33. What can we infer from the text?
A. The art exhibition of scientists is very eye-catching.
B. People are much more interested in science than in art.
C. The participation of artists contributes to the spread of marine knowledge.
D. Artists should go into the classroom to learn cultural knowledge.
34. Why is the work Micro Plastic Menu mentioned in the text?
A. To highlight the personal experiences of the artist.
B. To illustrate that artists draw inspiration from science.
C. To demonstrate the use of technology in contemporary art.
D. To emphasize the role of art in environmental conservation.
35. Which is the best title for the text?
A. An Art Exhibition by a Famous Marine Artist
B. A Cooperative Art and Marine Science Exhibition
C. An Exhibition Showcasing Traditional Art Forms
D. A Conference Discussing Marine Science Advancements
【答案】32. D 33. C 34. B 35. B
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一个艺术展览,艺术作品展示了当代艺术家和海洋科学家之间独特的艺术科学合作。该展览向广大观众传达了重要的海洋科学知识和当前的研究。
【32题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“The Western Australian Marine Science Institution (WAMSI) provided opportunities for the artists to learn from marine scientists through talks, presentations and field trips.(西澳大利亚海洋科学研究所(WAMSI)为艺术家们提供了通过讲座、演讲和实地考察向海洋科学家学习的机会。)”可知,WAMSI通过组织教育活动来帮助艺术家。故选D。
【33题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“The scientists benefited from explaining their work to different audiences, and the interest from the artists was incredibly high, contributing to a shared appreciation for the marine environment.(科学家们从向不同的受众阐释自己的研究工作中获益匪浅,而艺术家们对此表现出了极高的兴趣,这有助于大家对海洋环境形成一种共同的珍视之情。)”以及第四段“Responding with intuition (直觉), curiosity and imagination, the artists have interpreted their findings through chosen materials and techniques and created artworks to help move this understanding into the wider community(艺术家们凭借直觉、好奇心和想象力,通过选定的材料和技术诠释他们的发现,并创作艺术作品,帮助将这种理解传播到更广泛的社区。)”可推知,艺术家的参与有助于海洋知识的传播。故选C。
【34题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“The pursuit of marine science inspired some artists, whose artworks often centre around the finely-balanced coastal environment and the impact of structural change.(对海洋科学的探索激发了一些艺术家的创作灵感,他们的艺术作品常常围绕着微妙平衡的沿海环境以及结构变化所带来的影响展开。)”可推断,文中提到《微塑料菜单》这个作品是为了说明艺术家从科学中汲取灵感。故选B。
【35题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段“An art exhibition that combines scientific knowledge with creative inspiration was recently presented in Albany. The exhibition featured artworks from MIX Artists in the Great Southern that showcased unique art-science cooperation between contemporary artists and marine (海洋的) scientists working in the region. The waters of the south coast and around Albany are well-known for their unique diversity of plants and animals, and the works conveyed important marine science knowledge and current research to a broad audience.(最近在奥尔巴尼举办了一个将科学知识与创作灵感相结合的艺术展览。该展览展出了来自大南方MIX艺术家的作品,展示了当代艺术家和在该地区工作的海洋科学家之间独特的艺术科学合作。南海岸和奥尔巴尼附近的水域以其独特的动植物多样性而闻名,这些作品向广大观众传达了重要的海洋科学知识和当前的研究。)”和全文内容可知,文章主要介绍了一个艺术展览,艺术作品展示了当代艺术家和海洋科学家之间独特的艺术科学合作。该展览向广大观众传达了重要的海洋科学知识和当前的研究。由此可知,B选项“一个艺术与海洋科学合作展览”最符合文章标题。故选B。

57. who/that
58. to reflect
59. rediscovering

63. were built
64. a 65. visitors
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。本文主要介绍了一部旨在提高人们对对抗阿兹海默症和老年护理意识的感人电影《记忆消失前》。
【56题详解】
考查名词。句意:一部旨在提高人们对对抗阿兹海默症和老年护理意识的感人电影《记忆消失前》,于周五在国内上映。动词raise后接名词作宾语,aware的名词形式是awareness,意为“意识”,是不可数名词。故填awareness。
【57题详解】
考查定语从句。句意:故事围绕着一对老年夫妇展开,由于要照顾孙辈,他们已经在不同的城市分居多年。空处引导限制性定语从句,先行词是an elderly couple,指人,关系词替代先行词在从句中作主语,所以用关系代词who或that引导该从句。故填who/that。
【58题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:然而,与一位前同事的重逢促使丈夫开始反思人生和家庭。cause sb. to do sth.是固定搭配,意为“促使某人做某事”,所以空处应用动词不定式形式。故填to reflect。
【59题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:他们重新发现过去生活的旅程帮助他们加深了彼此的感情。空处作介词of的宾语,rediscover应用动名词形式,故填rediscovering。
【60题详解】
考查副词。句意:不幸的是,丈夫被诊断出患有阿兹海默症,这给家庭带来了一个新的、具有挑战性的局面,但最终却让他们更加亲密。空处修饰整个句子,应用副词作状语,unfortunate的副词形式是unfortunately,位于句首,首字母应大写。故填Unfortunately。
【61题详解】
考查介词。句意:不幸的是,丈夫被诊断出患有阿兹海默症,这给家庭带来了一个新的、具有挑战性的局面,但最终却让他们更加亲密。present sb. with sth.是固定搭配,意为“向某人展现某事”。故填with。
【62题详解】
考查副词比较级。句意:不幸的是,丈夫被诊断出患有阿兹海默症,这给家庭带来了一个新的、具有挑战性的局面,但最终却让他们更加亲密。结合句意可知,此处表示“更紧密地联系在一起”,所以空处应用副词比较级closer作状语修饰动词短语bringing together,故填closer。
【63题详解】
考查时态、语态和主谓一致。句意:中国电影评论协会执行副会长张伟表示,除了对老龄化问题有深刻的刻画之外,这部电影还完美地捕捉到了泰顺的风景魅力,泰顺是一个以保存了30多座从唐朝(618—907年)到清朝(1644—1911年)建造的廊桥而闻名的城镇。分析句子结构可知,which引导限制性定语从句,从句主语which指代先行词over 30 covered bridges,和从句谓语动词build之间是动宾关系,所以用被动语态,结合时间状语from Tang (618—907) to Qing (1644—1911) dynasties可知,此处应用一般过去时,且主语表示复数意义,be动词应用were,故填were built。
【64题详解】
考查冠词。句意:他相信这部电影可以成为文化与旅游相结合的一个典范,有可能吸引更多的游客来到这个城镇。model是可数名词,意为“典范”,此处表示泛指,且model发音的第一个音素是辅音音素,所以用不定冠词a修饰。故填a。
【65题详解】
考查名词复数。句意:他相信这部电影可以成为文化与旅游相结合的一个典范,有可能吸引更多的游客来到这个城镇。visitor是可数名词,意为“游客”,由more可知,此处应用复数形式,故填visitors。

【答案】Dear Rick,
I’m delighted to know that you are going to write an article about Chinese poems.
My favorite poet is Du Fu, who is regarded as one of the greatest poets in Chinese history. He is quite productive, having left about 1,500 poems behind, most of which are still popular today. I love him not only because he has written many great poems, but because he has shown deep concern for the ordinary people.
I think Du Fu: China’s Greatest Poet, a 58-minute documentary produced by BBC, might be of great help. It has traced Du’s steps all over China and translated 15 of his poems into English. I’m sure you will enjoy it!
Best wishes.
Yours,
Li Hua

67. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
I was working the night shift at the hospital on Thanksgiving. The waiting room stood empty except for an old clock ticking on the wall and a silent TV in the corner. Cold rain beat against the windows as I restocked bandages. Suddenly, the door opened, and an old man entered, holding a small boy. Both were wet from the storm, their shoes leaving watery footprints on the floor.
The boy’s grandfather said he had a fever, but the child’s skin felt cool. After a quick check, I found no signs of illness. My eyes fell on their worn clothes — the boy’s socks didn’t match, and the old man’s coat had holes. My coworker silently handed me a note: No electricity at their home for seven days. I understood their real trouble.
In the waiting area, the boy stared at the TV showing a Thanksgiving feast. His grandfather offered him a piece of dry bread. Without speaking, I brought two cups of hot milk from the kitchen and found thick blankets in the storage room. The old man tried to refuse, but I explained it was hospital policy to help on holidays.
I led them to a quiet room with a heater. While the boy changed into clean hospital clothes, I made a bed using spare blankets. The old man thanked me quietly, his voice shaking. Later, I contacted a local charity group, who promised to help restore their electricity the next morning.
After I doing this, I noticed the boy seemed a bit restless and out of place. I remembered how scary hospitals could be for children, so I took some crayons and paper from the storage room. I handed them to the boy, hoping it would help him feel more at ease. He took them with a shy smile and began to draw. Seeing him occupied and content made me feel a little warmer inside.
注意:1. 续写词数应为150个左右;
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
After daybreak, Grandpa folded the blanket carefully.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
After they left, I found a child’s drawing on my desk.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】One possible version:
After daybreak, Grandpa folded the blanket carefully. I told them that the community’s electronic had been restored, and that the charity had begun to pay attention to their situation. Plus, I gave them extra gloves and a warm sweater donated by a staff member. The old man wept and thanked, while the boy smiled and flapped his gloved hands like a bird’s wings. They left, and the two walked to the bus stop, where they huddled under an old umbrella, but the boy’s laughter rang clearly through the rain.
After they left, I found a child’s drawing on my desk. It showed a smiling nurse holding a blanket, circled by several hearts. The drawing was simple, but it spoke volumes. It was a thank-you note. It was a small sign of gratitude from a child who had nothing but still found a way to express his appreciation. I placed it in a frame and set it beside my computer. The drawing reminded me that sometimes, the smallest gestures can make the biggest difference.
