Growing up, my older sister always told me that going to high school allowed me to have more fun. But on the night before the first day, going to sleep was difficult. I was up all night thinking about how the day would go. What if my friends aren’t in any of my classes? What if I get made fun of? What will people think of when they first see me?
The next morning, as I started walking towards the gate of the school I had butterflies in my stomach. There were a lot of students. As I looked around, I started to notice the familiar (熟悉的) faces of my friends who went to primary school with me. For some reason, I would get very nervous when someone new got close to me.
The one thing I was most nervous about was walking in late to one of my classes. Guess what? That was exactly what happened. Going to the first period was simple because luckily, other students were helping us find our classes. Not to mention, I ended up having that class with a couple of friends.
As I made my way down the halls to get to my second-period class, we had about five minutes to get to our classes. Finally, I ended up getting lost and coming to class ten minutes after the bell had rung, which resulted in the class looking at me when I walked in. I felt self-conscious. Everyone had already taken their seats so I rushed to sit down as well. However, I had to sit with someone new. It took me a while to begin talking to him but once I did, things became easier because I was able to ask for help when needed.
In high school I was going to be meeting new people in unfamiliar places, getting used to a new environment, and receiving more responsibilities. But I’m still looking forward to it.

One debate about chicken eggs is why white eggs usually cost more than brown ones. Some people think white eggs are more nutritious (有营养的). Is that true? According to Sherman Hickman, the director of community outreach and education for Hickman’s Family Farms, it’s first important to know why chickens have different egg colors.
Jesse LaFlamme is the CEO of Pete and Gerry’s Organic Egg. She says, the chicken breed (品种) decides whether or not hens have pigment genes, the natural chemical that results in a colored shell. Although all eggs start out white in color, shell color can change from white to brown and even blue in some rare breeds. An interesting way to know what color eggs a hen lays is to look at the color of its ear feathers (羽毛), LaFlamme says. Breeds such as the Leghorn chickens lay white eggs, while Orpington chickens lay brown eggs and Ameraucana chickens produce blue eggs.
Hickman notes that the Leghorn breed is a popular choice for farmers because it lays more eggs. Hens that produce colored eggshells, however, usually are larger and require more feed and energy to create that painted shells. Since those breeds cost more to feed, their eggs are more expensive.
Although eggs sometimes look different and are priced differently, it’s impossible to know their nutrition according to shell color alone. “Choosing between brown and white eggs is a matter of personal preference,” Malina Linkas Malkani, media spokesperson for the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics, says. “But it’s important for people to know that the color of the eggshell is related to the breed of the hen, not the egg’s nutrition, quality or shell thickness.” What does affect the nutrition is the specific food the hen eats, according to Malkani.
8. What decides the color of eggshells?
A. Hens’ breed. B. Eggs’ nutrition. C. Shell thickness. D. Hens’ ear feathers.
9. Why are eggs of Leghorn chickens more expensive?
A. They lay rare eggs. B. Raising them costs more.
C. Their eggshells are white. D. Their eggs are more nutritious.
10. What does Malina Linkas Malkani try to explain?
A. Why eggs are priced differently.
B. What color of eggs people like best.
C. What decides the nutrition of eggs.
D. Why people like to eat eggs.
11. Which column can this passage probably be found in a newspaper?
A. Film & Entertainment B. Nature & Tour
C. Architecture & design D. Science & Life
【答案】8. A 9. B 10. C 11. D
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。主要讲述了相关人士对于“为什么白色鸡蛋通常比棕色鸡蛋贵”以及“白色鸡蛋和棕色鸡蛋的营养”这些话题的深入理解。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“She says, the chicken breed (品种) decides whether or not hens have pigment genes, the natural chemical that results in a colored shell.(鸡的品种决定母鸡是否有色素基因,这是一种天然的化学物质,可以形成彩色的蛋壳。)”可知,鸡的品种决定蛋壳的颜色。故选A项。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“Since those breeds cost more to feed, their eggs are more expensive.(由于这些品种的饲料成本更高,它们的蛋也更贵。)”,这种类型的鸡蛋贵是因为喂养这种鸡的成本高。可知,故选B项。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“What does affect the nutrition is the specific food the hen eats, according to Malkani.(Malkani认为影响营养的是母鸡吃的食物)”可知,Malina Linkas Malkani想要解释母鸡的进食影响鸡蛋的营养。故选C项。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章大意来看,这篇文章主要谈及白色鸡蛋和棕色鸡蛋的价格和营养,跟科学和生活相关。故选D项。

According to the US Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS), six red wolf pups (幼崽) were found in North Carolina’s Alligator River National Wildlife Refuge last week. That’s great news for endangered red wolves, and marks the first time these pups have been born in the wild since 2020.
Long ago, red wolves lived all through the US Southeast. But as the wolves were hunted, and as more and more land was taken over for cities, roads and farms, the wolves began to die out.
In 1973, a new law called the Endangered Species Act was passed, which was designed to protect animals that were in danger of dying out, like red wolves. At the time, there were only about 17 red wolves remaining in the wild.14 of those wolves were caught and fed by researchers to protect them. Then, the FWS conducted a program called the Red Wolf Recovery Program. But by 1980, red wolves were believed to have been extinct in the wild.
Luckily, the wolves did well under people’s care, and their numbers continued to grow. Soon the FWS began releasing red wolves back into the wild. Those wolves with tracking collars spread out, paired up, and began to have pups. By 2012, red wolf numbers had hit a new high point of about 120 wolves in the wild. The program’s success led to many other programs aimed at bringing animals back from the edge of extinction.
Sadly, though, wild red wolf numbers began to drop again. Some wolves were shot and others were hit by cars. As the number of adults fell. the number of pups being born also began to drop. In 2020, a total of four pups were born in the wild. In 2021, 2022 and 2023, no wild pups were born at all.
So the news that six pups hatched in the wild this year is a huge boost. But the good news isn’t an accident.
12. How did the FWS protect red wolves?
A. It made a new law to protect them. B. It kept them in the wild.
C. It moved them into a new habitat. D. It carried out a recovery program.
13. What is partly responsible for the reduced number of red wolves in recent years? ?
A. The lack of food B. The worsened weather.
C. The illegal hunting. D. The loss of forests.
14. What will be talked about in the following paragraph?
A. The accidents that happened this year. B. The effort the FWS has made.
C. The wishes from the researchers. D. The health condition of the pups.
15. What can be a suitable title for the passage?
A. Endangered Species Act Taking Effect B. Red Wolf Pups Decreasing in the US
C. Endangered Red Wolf Pups Born in the Wild D. Future Faced by Endangered Red Wolves
【答案】12. D 13. C 14. B 15. C
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。讲述了六只红狼幼崽在野外出生,这是自从2020年以来第一次有红狼幼崽出生,因为红狼濒临危险,是快要灭绝动物,所以FWS开展了一个名为红狼恢复计划的项目。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第三段“Then, the FWS conducted a program called the Red Wolf Recovery Program. (然后,FWS开展了一个名为红狼恢复计划的项目。)”可知,FWS开展了一项红狼恢复计划来保护红狼。故选D。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“But as the wolves were hunted, and as more and more land was taken over for cities, roads and farms, the wolves began to die out. (但是随着狼被猎杀,随着越来越多的土地被城市、道路和农场占据,狼开始灭绝。)”可知,导致红狼濒临灭绝的因素之一是非法猎杀。故选C。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“So the news that six pups hatched in the wild this year is a huge boost. But the good news isn’t an accident.(所以今年有六只幼崽在野外孵化的消息是一个巨大的鼓舞。但好消息并非偶然。)”可知,后文会讲述FWS为保护红狼幼崽所做的努力。故选B。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。根据文章第一段“According to the US Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS), six red wolf pups (幼崽) were found in North Carolina’s Alligator River National Wildlife Refuge last week. That’s great news for endangered red wolves, and marks the first time these pups have been born in the wild since 2020. (据美国鱼类和野生动物管理局(FWS)称,上周在北卡罗来纳州的鳄鱼河国家野生动物保护区发现了六只红狼幼崽。这对濒临灭绝的红狼来说是个好消息,这标志着自2020年以来这些幼狼第一次在野外出生。)”以及通读整篇文章可知,本文讲述的是六只红狼幼崽在野外出生,这是自从2020年以来第一次有红狼幼崽出生。C“野生濒危红狼幼崽出生”符合主题,故选C。

38. for 39. communicating##communication
40. quicker
41. a 42. is used
43. which 44. their
45. spoken
【解析】
【分析】本文是说明文。文章介绍了词汇变化的几个原因。
【36题详解】
考查副词。句意:新词随着世界的巨大变化而诞生。 修饰动词changing用副词作状语,故填greatly。
【37题详解】
考查名词。句意:这些变化有一些原因。reason是可数名词,由some修饰用复数,故填reasons
【38题详解】
考查介词。句意:毫不奇怪,科技是产生很多新词的原因。be responsible for“为……负责,形成……的原因”是固定短语,根据句意,故填for。
【39题详解】
考查动名词或名词。句意:此外,新的交流方式也创造了新的语言。介词后接动名词或者名词作宾语,communication“交流”不可数名词,故填communicating/communication。
【40题详解】
考查形容词比较级。句意:当他们在手机上互相发短信时,朋友们倾向于使用一种更快、更简单的方式,比如“cu18”和“lol”。and连接“quick”和easier作并列定语,根据句意,用形容词比较级表示这样的方式更快更容易,故填quicker。
【41题详解】
考查冠词。句意:第三,青少年对某些词的新含义有很大的影响。have a great influence on“对……有极大影响”是固定短语,泛指“一种……影响”,用不定冠词,故填a。
【42题详解】
考查时态语态和主谓一致。句意:例如,“sick”被用来意味着“伟大”,“Wassup”的意味着“你好”。文章主时态是一般现在时,讲述现在的事实,主语“sick”与谓语动词use是被动关系,用被动语态,且主语是单数,谓语动词用单数,故填is used。
【43题详解】
考查定语从句。句意:最后一个原因是全球化,这是一种在全球传播英语的有效方式。分析句子可知,空格处引导定语从句,修饰globalization,从句中作主语,指物,引导非限制性定语从句用关系代词which,故填which。
【44题详解】
考查代词。句意:不是以英语为母语的人正在创造他们自己的语言形式,叫做全球化语言。one’s own“某人自己的”,根据前文的speakers可知,one’s用形容词物主代词their代替,故填their。
【45题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:全球化语言有一天会成为世界上最常被讲的语言吗?分析句子可知,speak修饰language作定语,根据句意,二者之间是被动关系,故用过去分词作定语,故填spoken。

47. 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。
One noon, Mark knocked at the door, saying, “Take the letter.” Then, a little girl answered from inside, “I’m coming.” But after 3 minutes, no one came. Mark, the postman, said again, “Please hurry. I have to go to the next place.”
The girl, Jane, replied, “Sir, put the letter under the door. I’m coming. But it’ll take more time.” The old postman replied, “No, I’m waiting. It’s a registered letter. So your signature is needed.”
After a long time, the door open. Mark was angry and was about to shout at the girl. But when the door opened, he was shocked to see a little girl who had no legs. He immediately had great pity for her. He quietly gave her the letter, took her signature and left.
The little girl often lived alone in her house. Her mother wasn’t in this world. And her father used to work far away. He wasn’t rich and could not buy the girl prostheses(假肢). To take care of her, her aunt stayed with her every night. But she lived alone during the day.
In about two months, whenever mail came, Mark would knock and call Jane. Then he’d wait patiently at the door. Gradually, interaction and attachment(依恋) grew between them. And they learned more about each other.
Jane noticed Mark used to come barefoot(赤脚) to deliver mail. The rainy season came. One day, when Mark left after delivering the letter, his footprints were left on the wet soil. Jane came out with a piece of paper, put it on the footprints and took down the picture of his feet. Then she handed her aunt the pocket money she had saved, and asked her to get shoes of that size and keep them in the house.
注意:1.续写词数应为150左右。2. 请按如下格式作答。
Days later, Jane heard the old postman knock on her door.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
“I can’t give her legs, but I can give her prostheses,” Mark suddenly thought, and decided to buy.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】 Days later, Jane heard the old postman knock on her door. Smiling, she opened the door and took the mail from Mark. Then she handed him a box, saying, “This is a gift for you.” Mark opened the box, seeing a pair of new shoes. He couldn’t believe Jane was concerned about him. Mark was moved to tears. He thanked her and left. “She saw me barefoot and gave me new shoes. But how will I be able to give her legs?” he thought to himself.
“I can’t give her legs, but I can give her prostheses,” Mark suddenly thought, and decided to buy. He quickly went back home and took all the money he had saved for years. Then he returned to Jane’s house. Mark offered to take Jane to town to buy prostheses. Jane couldn’t believe her ears, but she declined. Mark was so determined that eventually she agreed to go. When Jane wore prostheses and walked around, they were so glad about each other’s gift, which brought great warmth and hope.
【解析】
【导语】本文以人物为线索展开,讲述了有一天邮差Mark在送信时认识了一个没有腿的女孩Jane,因家庭贫穷Jane买不起假肢,Mark每次给Jane送信时都会耐心地在门口等,两人渐渐地产生了依恋,Jane注意到Mark经常光着脚送信,于是她用零花钱买下一双适合Mark尺码的鞋子。
【详解】1.段落续写:
①由第一段首句内容“几天后,Jane听到老邮差来敲她的门。”可知,第一段可描写Jane把鞋子送给Mark及Mark的反应。
②由第二段首句内容“‘我不能给她腿,但我可以给她假肢,’Mark突然想,决定去买。”可知,第二段可描写Mark给Jane买假肢的经过。
2.续写线索:

Growing up, my older sister always told me that going to high school allowed me to have more fun. But on the night before the first day, going to sleep was difficult. I was up all night thinking about how the day would go. What if my friends aren’t in any of my classes? What if I get made fun of? What will people think of when they first see me?
The next morning, as I started walking towards the gate of the school I had butterflies in my stomach. There were a lot of students. As I looked around, I started to notice the familiar (熟悉的) faces of my friends who went to primary school with me. For some reason, I would get very nervous when someone new got close to me.
The one thing I was most nervous about was walking in late to one of my classes. Guess what? That was exactly what happened. Going to the first period was simple because luckily, other students were helping us find our classes. Not to mention, I ended up having that class with a couple of friends.
As I made my way down the halls to get to my second-period class, we had about five minutes to get to our classes. Finally, I ended up getting lost and coming to class ten minutes after the bell had rung, which resulted in the class looking at me when I walked in. I felt self-conscious. Everyone had already taken their seats so I rushed to sit down as well. However, I had to sit with someone new. It took me a while to begin talking to him but once I did, things became easier because I was able to ask for help when needed.
In high school I was going to be meeting new people in unfamiliar places, getting used to a new environment, and receiving more responsibilities. But I’m still looking forward to it.

One debate about chicken eggs is why white eggs usually cost more than brown ones. Some people think white eggs are more nutritious (有营养的). Is that true? According to Sherman Hickman, the director of community outreach and education for Hickman’s Family Farms, it’s first important to know why chickens have different egg colors.
Jesse LaFlamme is the CEO of Pete and Gerry’s Organic Egg. She says, the chicken breed (品种) decides whether or not hens have pigment genes, the natural chemical that results in a colored shell. Although all eggs start out white in color, shell color can change from white to brown and even blue in some rare breeds. An interesting way to know what color eggs a hen lays is to look at the color of its ear feathers (羽毛), LaFlamme says. Breeds such as the Leghorn chickens lay white eggs, while Orpington chickens lay brown eggs and Ameraucana chickens produce blue eggs.
Hickman notes that the Leghorn breed is a popular choice for farmers because it lays more eggs. Hens that produce colored eggshells, however, usually are larger and require more feed and energy to create that painted shells. Since those breeds cost more to feed, their eggs are more expensive.
Although eggs sometimes look different and are priced differently, it’s impossible to know their nutrition according to shell color alone. “Choosing between brown and white eggs is a matter of personal preference,” Malina Linkas Malkani, media spokesperson for the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics, says. “But it’s important for people to know that the color of the eggshell is related to the breed of the hen, not the egg’s nutrition, quality or shell thickness.” What does affect the nutrition is the specific food the hen eats, according to Malkani.
8. What decides the color of eggshells?
A. Hens’ breed. B. Eggs’ nutrition. C. Shell thickness. D. Hens’ ear feathers.
9. Why are eggs of Leghorn chickens more expensive?
A. They lay rare eggs. B. Raising them costs more.
C. Their eggshells are white. D. Their eggs are more nutritious.
10. What does Malina Linkas Malkani try to explain?
A. Why eggs are priced differently.
B. What color of eggs people like best.
C. What decides the nutrition of eggs.
D. Why people like to eat eggs.
11. Which column can this passage probably be found in a newspaper?
A. Film & Entertainment B. Nature & Tour
C. Architecture & design D. Science & Life
D
According to the US Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS), six red wolf pups (幼崽) were found in North Carolina’s Alligator River National Wildlife Refuge last week. That’s great news for endangered red wolves, and marks the first time these pups have been born in the wild since 2020.
Long ago, red wolves lived all through the US Southeast. But as the wolves were hunted, and as more and more land was taken over for cities, roads and farms, the wolves began to die out.
In 1973 a new law called the Endangered Species Act was passed, which was designed to protect animals that were in danger of dying out, like red wolves. At the time, there were only about 17 red wolves remaining in the wild.14 of those wolves were caught and fed by researchers to protect them. Then, the FWS conducted a program called the Red Wolf Recovery Program. But by 1980, red wolves were believed to have been extinct in the wild.
Luckily, the wolves did well under people’s care, and their numbers continued to grow. Soon the FWS began releasing red wolves back into the wild. Those wolves with tracking collars spread out, paired up, and began to have pups. By 2012, red wolf numbers had hit a new high point of about 120 wolves in the wild. The program’s success led to many other programs aimed at bringing animals back from the edge of extinction.
Sadly, though, wild red wolf numbers began to drop again. Some wolves were shot and others were hit by cars. As the number of adults fell. the number of pups being born also began to drop. In 2020, a total of four pups were born in the wild. In 2021, 2022 and 2023, no wild pups were born at all.
So the news that six pups hatched in the wild this year is a huge boost. But the good news isn’t an accident.
12. How did the FWS protect red wolves?
A. It made a new law to protect them. B. It kept them in the wild.
C. It moved them into a new habitat. D. It carried out a recovery program.
13. What is partly responsible for the reduced number of red wolves in recent years? ?
A. The lack of food B. The worsened weather.
C. The illegal hunting. D. The loss of forests.
14. What will be talked about in the following paragraph?
A. The accidents that happened this year. B. The effort the FWS has made.
C. The wishes from the researchers. D. The health condition of the pups.
15. What can be a suitable title for the passage?
A. Endangered Species Act Taking Effect B. Red Wolf Pups Decreasing in the US
C. Endangered Red Wolf Pups Born in the Wild D. Future Faced by Endangered Red Wolves

47. 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。
One noon, Mark knocked at the door, saying, “Take the letter.” Then, a little girl answered from inside, “I’m coming.” But after 3 minutes, no one came. Mark, the postman, said again, “Please hurry. I have to go to the next place.”
The girl, Jane, replied, “Sir, put the letter under the door. I’m coming. But it’ll take more time.” The old postman replied, “No, I’m waiting. It’s a registered letter. So your signature is needed.”
After a long time, the door open. Mark was angry and was about to shout at the girl. But when the door opened, he was shocked to see a little girl who had no legs. He immediately had great pity for her. He quietly gave her the letter, took her signature and left.
The little girl often lived alone in her house. Her mother wasn’t in this world. And her father used to work far away. He wasn’t rich and could not buy the girl prostheses(假肢). To take care of her, her aunt stayed with her every night. But she lived alone during the day.
In about two months, whenever mail came, Mark would knock and call Jane. Then he’d wait patiently at the door. Gradually, interaction and attachment(依恋) grew between them. And they learned more about each other.
Jane noticed Mark used to come barefoot(赤脚) to deliver mail. The rainy season came. One day, when Mark left after delivering the letter, his footprints were left on the wet soil. Jane came out with a piece of paper, put it on the footprints and took down the picture of his feet. Then she handed her aunt the pocket money she had saved, and asked her to get shoes of that size and keep them in the house.
注意:1.续写词数应为150左右。2. 请按如下格式作答。
Days later, Jane heard the old postman knock on her door.

“I can’t give her legs, but I can give her prostheses,” Mark suddenly thought, and decided to buy.
