Although videos can help a lot, they can’t show every part of a well-made story,” he said. Eighteen-year-old Wang Hongjie from Sichuan agreed, saying, “It may decrease readers’ a___57___ to read independently and think deeply.” 【答案】51. (i)ncreased 52. (r)equired 53. (e)asier 54. (b)oring 55. (c)onfused 56. (w)orries 57. (a)bility 【解析】 【导语】本文主要讨论了现代人通过视频“观看”经典文学作品的现象，分析了其优缺点。 【51题详解】 句意：据中国短视频平台抖音发布的2023年报告显示，与图书相关的视频浏览量同比增长了65.17%。根据“the views for book-related videos i... by 65.17 percent year-on-year”可知，是指同比增长了65.17%，increase“增长”，时态是一般过去时，动词用过去式。故填(i)ncreased。 【52题详解】 句意：有一些经典我不感兴趣，但被要求阅读。根据“We have to finish at least two books each year”及首字母可知，有些经典是被要求阅读，空处用过去分词required“被要求”，与am构成被动语态。故填(r)equired。 【53题详解】 句意：这些博主还在他们的解释中加入了个人观点，使这本书更容易理解。根据“The vloggers also add personal opinions to their explanations”及首字母可知，是指博主的解释让书更容易理解，空处暗含比较，用形容词比较级easier“更容易的”，作宾语补足语。故填(e)asier。 【54题详解】 句意：它们看起来很有趣，但读起来很枯燥且困难。根据“and difficult”及首字母可知，是指读起来枯燥且困难，修饰物，用形容词boring“枯燥的”，作表语。故填(b)oring。 【55题详解】 句意：小说中的人物太多了，这让我很困惑。根据“There are so many characters in the novel”及首字母可知，小说的人物太多，使我很困惑，confuse“使困惑”，此处是描述过去的事情，时态用一般过去时，动词用过去式。故填(c)onfused。 【56题详解】 句意：虽然观看视频有助于许多人阅读，但有些人表达了不同的意见和担忧。根据“Books can let me imagine. Although videos can help a lot, they can’t show every part of a well-made story”可知，下文表达了有些人对看视频阅读的不同意见及担忧，worry“担忧”，根据“opinions”可知，空处用名词复数形式。故填(w)orries。 【57题详解】 句意：它可能会降低读者独立阅读和深入思考的能力。根据“decrease readers’ a... to read independently and think deeply.”可知，是指降低读者独立阅读和深入思考的能力，用名词ability“能力”，作宾语。故填(a)bility。 Answer the questions (根据以下内容回答问题). Hello, Larry, So glad to hear from you this morning and to hear about the Chinese Lantern Festival. I note that you saw lots of fireworks IN your flat. I am sure that you meant you saw them FROM your flat. If they were IN your flat, that would be rather dangerous! Your visit to the Roman Catholic cathedral was interesting, too. I believe you have received our New Year greetings twice over! After I wrote the card, I could not find it. It was gone. . . lost! I did not know where, so I wrote another card. Later I received a note telling me that you had received both cards. So you were doubly greeted! And, I hope, doubly blessed! It was good to know you have been to your parents’ home for the New Year. I trust you found them well and enjoyed visiting your hometown. You must have been excited to meet your old friends and neighbours there again. My brother John has a Chinese friend who he met in London last summer. His name is Andrew. He works with students in Beijing, and also Chinese students returning to Beijing after having studied and worked abroad—like you did. He seems a very pleasant fellow who, when I told him I had a friend recently returning from Scotland, said he would be happy to contact you if you would like that. He is currently in Taiwan but will be back in Beijing around 15th March after which, he says, he would be happy to meet up with you. If you would like to meet him, I will send you his address and/or him yours, but I will do nothing further till I hear from you. About your question about us, as Christians, eating pork…, yes, we do indeed try to follow the teaching of the Bible (圣经) as it applies to our daily living. Some rules do not apply to us in our day though. The sun is shining brightly today but it is still very cold this morning. There is heavy snow everywhere. In some places, power cables go wrong, too. The winter conditions are lasting longer this year than before. Best wishes! Sincerely, Ken 58. Did Larry see the fireworks in his flat or from his flat? ______________________________________ 59. Why did Ken say Larry was doubly greeted? ______________________________________ 60. What did Larry do during his New Year holiday? ______________________________________ 61. Where does Larry live now? ______________________________________ 62. Write a question Larry asked Ken according to the underlined words. Why did he ask it? ______________________________________ 63. Do you think Larry will meet up with Andrew? Why? ______________________________________ 【答案】58. From his flat. 59. Because Ken wrote two cards to Larry and he received both of them. 60. He went to his parents’ home, met his old friends and neighbours. 61 In Beijing. 62. Do Christians eat pork? He asked the question because he was curious about Christian religious practices and dietary rules. 63. 开放性试题，言之有理即可。参考答案为：Yes, I think Larry will likely meet Andrew. Andrew works with Chinese students returning from abroad, just like Larry did. This common experience could make them connect easily. 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇应用文。文章主要是Ken写给Larry的回信，谈及Larry提到的中国元宵节、去父母家过年等内容，还介绍了自己哥哥的中国朋友Andrew，询问Larry是否愿意见面，同时回答了Larry关于基督徒是否吃猪肉的问题，并描述了当地的天气状况。 【58题详解】 根据第一段“I note that you saw lots of fireworks IN your flat. I am sure that you meant you saw them FROM your flat.”可知，Ken纠正了Larry的介词使用，如果烟花在屋里 (in his flat)，会很危险，所以应该是从屋里看外面的烟花 (from his flat)。故填From his flat. 【59题详解】 根据第二段“After I wrote the card, I could not find it. It was gone... lost! I did not know where, so I wrote another card. Later I received a note telling me that you had received both cards.”可知，Ken写了两张贺卡给Larry，Larry都收到了；因此，Ken说Larry被双重问候了。故填Because Ken wrote two cards to Larry and he received both of them. 【60题详解】 根据第三段“It was good to know you have been to your parents’ home for the New Year... You must have been excited to meet your old friends and neighbours there again.”可知，Larry在新年假期去了父母家，见到了老朋友和邻居。故填He went to his parents’ home, met his old friends and neighbours. 【61题详解】 根据第四段“His name is Andrew. He works with students in Beijing, and also Chinese students returning to Beijing after having studied and worked abroad—like you did.”可知，安德鲁的工作对象包括在北京的学生，以及像Larry一样在国外学习和工作后回到北京的中国学生；据此可以推断，Larry现在住在北京。故填In Beijing. 【62题详解】 根据第五段“About your question about us, as Christians, eating pork…”可知，Larry问的问题是关于基督徒是否吃猪肉；他问这个问题的原因是，Larry可能对基督徒的宗教习俗和饮食禁忌感到好奇。故填Do Christians eat pork? He asked the question because he was curious about Christian religious practices and dietary rules. 【63题详解】 开放性试题，言之有理即可。参考答案为：Yes, I think Larry will likely meet Andrew. Andrew works with Chinese students returning from abroad, just like Larry did. This common experience could make them connect easily. Writing (作文) 64.

Firstly, videos make classic stories more lively and interesting. For example, when I read Journey to the West, the video showed the Monkey King’s actions clearly, which helped me understand the story better. Secondly, videos often explain difficult parts in simple ways. Sometimes I feel confused while reading alone, but the video’s explanations solve my problems quickly.

He was suffering from hormone deficiency (激素缺乏症), but he was determined. He never gave up his dream. FC Barcelona thought he was good enough to join them. Now he is considered their best player. Henry, a former teammate at FC Barcelona, thinks the best thing is not to talk about Messi, but to watch him. Simon, in his book The Football Men, calls Messi the classic Argentine pibe, the man-boy who is still like a child. In other words, football for him is play. Here is Jason’s interview with Messi, the world’s best footballer. Jason: Are you the classic pibe? Messi: That’s what I’m trying to do. Football is a game. I’m trying to have fun. The day I stop having fun is the day I retire. Jason: Does it feel as if you are still living in a golden prison, from which you escape only to play football? Messi: I try to live as normal a life as I can. I try to go to the cinema, to shop in the centre, to go out to a restaurant. Fortunately in the city of Barcelona, people allow me to live as a normal person, like I am. Jason: How does it feel to know you’re the best football player in the world? Messi: Such a question is very complicated. I am very grateful for everything I’ve been able to achieve, for the family I have, for the people around me. But I believe better things will come. I have so much to learn. Remember: I am only 24 years old. 39. From the first paragraph, we know that Messi ________.

Sometimes she would knit hats for us, and other times, she baked cookies. But one day, she ___45___ us all by announcing (宣布) , “I’m going to call one neighbor every night.” I was 16 then and couldn’t understand why she would spend her evenings talking to people she hardly knew. One evening, I overheard her conversation with an elderly lady. She asked about the lady’s dinner and even discussed the roses in the park. ___46___ she hung up, I questioned her choice of topics, finding them trivial (琐碎的) . With a kind smile, she explained, “I might be the only person she talked to today. So even the ___47___ conversations can make her feel cared for. ” It wasn’t until nearly 30 years later that I realized the true ___48___ of my mother’s nightly calls.

The lonely feeling can be very strong for the elderly. They might feel like they are being forgotten or no longer valued. Without ___50___ social interactions, they may experience sadness, boredom and a sense of emptiness. Long periods of feeling lonely can even lead to feelings of depression and anxiety. My mother’s conversations were more than just friendly talks—they were lifelines for lonely seniors. Her calls connected them to the world outside.
