I know clearly how you feel when seeing a better drawing from your friend. I’m surely not the best artist in the world, but I always love making pictures. That’s why I got so ____11____ about Mr. Pacino’s candy-label (标签) idea when I was young. Mr. Pacino is my father’s friend who ____12____ a candy shop as well. One day he happened to stop by when my friend Alice and I were drawing with chalk (粉笔) in front of my house. “Wow! Excellent pictures!” he said, trying not to step on them ____13____ he walked towards the door. “I really love your drawings! Would you offer to help make some pictures so that I can use them ____14____ the label?” He smiled to us, “just have fun—no need to ____15____ making everything perfect.” Then he left. With his words, we imagined ourselves being talented artists at the moment. And we began to draw right away. We both enjoyed the way we were drawing. ____16____, we stopped and looked at each other’s work. One minute I liked my drawing best. And the next minute I felt like the ____17____ artist ever after comparing our works. How strange it was! After an hour, Mr. Pacino returned and said, “I truly love your drawings. Both of them are so special that I can’t wait to use them for my label.” A look of joy appeared on his face, “Hey, girls, what about working together in a fun and eye-catching way? I believe that’ll be the perfect label I want.” I could see what Pacino ____18____. It seemed like a waste of time and energy (精力) to try to compete with my friend. Each piece was different but amazing in ____19____ own way—even mine. So, dear Not an Artist, I know it can be upset when you start comparing yourself with others. But try not to do so.

Without gravity, you would fly into outer space. Gravity pulls everything towards the center of the Earth with a certain amount (数量) of force (力). This amount of force is called weight. You can find the weight of an object (物品) by putting it on the scale. All planets and moons have a force of gravity. Some planets and moons have more gravity than the Earth and some have less. The planet in the solar system with the strongest force of gravity is Jupiter (木星). The Moon is smaller than the Earth. This means that it has less gravity than the Earth. Things will weigh less on the Moon than on the Earth. If you weighed 60 pounds on the Earth, you would weigh about 10 pounds on the Moon! Since there is less gravity on the Moon, people can jump higher there. If you threw a ball on the Moon, it would fly very far. Some planets like Saturn (土星) are much bigger than the Earth. Objects weigh more on these bigger planets. There is more force that pulls things down. On Jupiter you would weigh about twice as much as you weigh on the Earth. Your arms would weigh twice as much, too! How would it feel to throw a baseball? Some things might be easier to do on the Jupiter. Imagine how fast you could skate down a hill. There would be more gravity pulling you down! 21. Which of the following can best describe the word “scale” in Paragraph 1? A. A way that helps you to lose weight and stay fit. B. A tool that tells you the right size of something. C. A machine that tells you how tall an object is. D. An instrument that shows how heavy a thing is. 22. How much would a man weigh on the Moon if he weighed 120 pounds on the Earth? A. About 20 pounds. B. About 60 pounds. C. About 180 pounds. D. About 720 pounds. 23. What’s the purpose of this passage? A. To introduce some ways to study gravity. B. To imagine humans’ life without gravity. C. To give basic information about gravity. D. To discuss gravity in humans’ daily life. B Michael was a professional football player, but in 2017 he had an accident in a swimming pool. After that, he couldn’t move his body from the shoulders down. Doctors told him that he’d probably never walk again, but Michael didn’t want to believe this. He had recently got engaged (订婚) to the woman who is now his wife and he said that she was the main reason he wanted to get better. He spent six days staring at his toes and trying to make them move—and, finally, he succeeded! This was the start of a long journey. While in hospital, Michael met John, a man in his late thirties. Doctors had also told John he would never walk again, but Michael encouraged him not to give up and six months later, John told Michael he was walking with a stick. Only a year after his accident, Michael climbed the highest mountain in Wales. Since then he has also climbed a 6,500-meter mountain in Nepal and he said that after each big climb he noticed his body could do new movements. Two years later, 31-year-old Michael climbed 8,848 meters, the height of the world’s highest mountain, by going up and down his parents’ stairs 2,783 times. When he finished, he told a news reporter he had loved it although it sometimes was “painful” and “boring”. He also raised £46,000 for charity (慈善). Michael hopes his story can help people. That’s why he started his own charity, M2M, which aims to support “people facing challenges in life”. 24. How did the writer mainly develop Michael’s story? A. By listing important numbers. B. By comparing with other people. C. By giving facts in time order. D. By asking interesting questions. 25. What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 5 refer to? A. Going up and down stairs. B. Doing new movements. C. Climbing the mountains. D. Raising money for charity. 26. Put the events about Michael in the correct order according to the passage. a. Michael started M2M. b. Michael succeeded in making his toes move. c. Michael had an accident in a swimming pool. d. Michael climbed the highest mountain in Wales. e. Michael climbed his parents’ stairs 2,783 times. A. c-e-b-d-a. B. c-b-d-e-a. C. e-a-b-d-c. D. e-b-d-c-a. 27. What would be the best title for the passage? A. A Football Player B. A Charity Worker C. A Mountain Climber D. A Challenge Lover C Chinese calligraphy (书法) is an art form of writing Chinese characters (汉字), often with a brush and ink (墨) on Xuan paper. The development of Chinese calligraphy began from the Shang Dynasty (16th century—11th century BC) in Anyang, Henan Province, as one way to record dates on animal bones (骨头). Over time, calligraphy slowly took shape as a form of art instead of only a way of record. There are mainly five famous styles: running, cursive, official, seal and regular. Each of them shows its special beauty. Calligraphy is a challenging art. The type of brush, ink and paper can all change the output. From brush inclination (倾斜度) and direction to speed of writing, every turn of the wrist (手腕) is also seriously managed. The structure of every character can influence its quality (质量) as well. Moreover, it is said that the feelings of the writer are shown on calligraphy. Calligraphy is a beautiful art. Lan Ting Xu (the Orchid Pavilion Preface), created by Wang Xizhi during the Eastern Jin Dynasty (317—420), is one of the most famous works of Chinese calligraphy. Its beauty gives it both historical and cultural importance in Chinese culture. ▲ Like the Spring Festival couplets (对联) on the doors, calligraphy can be easily seen in Chinese families. It is also learned as a hobby for both the young and the old. Where there is Chinese language, there is Chinese calligraphy, and where there is calligraphy, there is beauty. The art is still highly valued today, for it is more than just writing, and it is a national treasure. 28. What was the early form of calligraphy used to do? A. Draw pictures. B. Keep diaries. C. Record daily life. D. Record dates. 29. How can you understand the phrase “running, cursive, official, seal and regular” in Paragraph 1 in Chinese? A. 楷书方正善 B. 行云流水意 C. 行草隶篆楷 D. 紫砂笔墨添 30. Which sentence can be put in the ▲ ? A. Calligraphy is quite useful in our life. B. Calligraphy is not far from our life. C. Calligraphy is popular with the young and the old. D. Calligraphy is the most popular art form now. 31. What can we infer from the passage? A. People from Henan are very good at calligraphy. B. Calligraphy can only be used in Chinese language. C. Wang Xizhi’s feelings are shown on the calligraphy of Lan Ting Xu. D. Wang Xizhi was hardworking and practiced calligraphy every day. D ①A Long March 2F rocket carrying the Shenzhou-18 spacecraft with three taikonauts was successfully sent into space on April 25th from the Jiuquan Satellite Launch (发射) Center in Northwest China. ②The taikonauts are Ye Guangfu, Li Cong and Li Guangsu, with Ye as the leader. It is Ye’s second time to go to space within 3 years. And this is Li Cong and Li Guangsu’s first space flight. ③This launch has a lot of breakthroughs (突破). First of all, launching in April is really challenging. April is famous for being very windy and sandy in the center. So, experts carefully planned the best time to launch according to the April wind speed data from the last 10 years. Secondly, there have been greater technological developments in both the spacecraft and the rocket to improve safety. Another big change worth mentioning is the new battery (电池) for the spacecraft. It is lighter and can work longer. ④The three taikonauts will have many tasks during their stay. More than 90 experiments (实验) covering areas such as material science, life science and medicine will be done in space. ⑤A very special task is to raise zebrafish in space. They will create a simple ecosystem to study how the space environment affects (影响) their growth and system balance. If the experiment succeeds, it will be an important breakthrough in keeping vertebrates (脊椎动物) in China’s space program. ⑥Moreover, they will also learn how plants change and get used to the environment by doing the first-ever stem cell (干细胞) study in space. This will help to choose proper vegetables for space farming. ⑦Besides these experiments, the taikonauts will do two or three space walks. And they will further keep the safety of the space station. ⑧Exploring space is not just a dream for our country. We are making new achievements, showing the world that China is becoming stronger and stronger. And we are sure the Shenzhou-18 crew will do well, although the tasks have become more complicated and harder. 32. If you want to add a paragraph about “stories of the three taikonauts”, where can you put it? A. After Para.2. B. After Para.3. C. After Para.4. D. After Para.5. 33. The breakthroughs of this launch include ________. ①launch in April ②use of the new battery ③changes in wind speed ④developments in technology A. ①②③ B. ①③④ C. ①②④ D. ②③④ 34. What can we infer from the passage? A. This is the first space flight for these three taikonauts in China. B. Taikonauts may not need to take vegetables to space in the future. C. The taikonauts will be able to keep any animal they like in space. D. More than 90 experiments will be done during the space journey. 35. Which of the following can best show the structure of this passage? A. B. C. D. Ⅴ. 阅读填空（每空2.5分，共10分） More and more people think that life is better in the city than the countryside. For the first time in history more than 50% of the world’s population lives in the cities. However, there are still many groups of people who live in some of the wildest places on the planet. The Kalahari is a large area of bush (灌木) land in southern Africa. It has two parts. The south part is drier than the north and plants do not grow there very well. Every year at the end of summer it rains and the land becomes more beautiful than at other times of the year. But the grass and the bushes soon get dry and turn brown again. Life there is difficult. The San are a group of people who live in the Kalahari. They live in huts, eat wild animals-even lions-plants and berries. They are very good with bows and arrows, and use them for hunting. Up in the mountains of central Papua New Guinea is the Chimbu Province. This jungle area is one of the world’s most remote places. It is also home to Mt Wilhelm, the highest mountain on the island. Several different tribes (部落) live in the valleys (山谷) between the mountains. One of these is the Chimbu skeleton (骷髅) dancers. They paint skeletons onto their bodies. This makes them look scarier in order to keep other people away from their land. The Yamal Peninsula in northern Siberia is one and a half times bigger than France. It is frozen for much of the year and temperatures can reach -50°C in the winter. But this area is home to a tribe of about 10,000 people called the Nenets. The Nenets are nomadic, meaning they often move from one place to another. Each year around 300,000 deer move around the land and the Nenets always go with them. The recent finding of gas in the area means more people than before are visiting the Yamal. So the Nenets now have more communication with people from other places. 根据文章内容，用自己的语言概括文章。在空白处填入恰当的单词或短语，每空最多3个词。 There are many groups of people living in far-away places on the planet. The San are a group of people who live in the Kalahari. The ____36____ in the south part causes problems for plants growing. People need ____37____ with bows and arrows to get food. The Chimbu skeleton dancers are one of the tribes living in the Chimbu Province. They paint scary things on their bodies to ____38____. The Nenets often move from one place to another.

Studies even show that more and more people watch short videos all day long. So why is it so hard to say no to short videos? Algorithmic recommendation (算法推荐) must be the answer. It is so smart that it can find our likes. The more we like something, the more it will feed us similar information. Now, you see why it’s so hard to refuse short videos. It’s time to work out why you will become stupid if you keep watching it. When you spend hours watching short videos, the algorithm keeps showing you things similar to what you’ve already liked. This situation is called “information cocoon” (信息茧房). After watching many videos, you may think you know a lot. But actually, you only see the same kind of things again and again—like staying in a small room all the time. Also, you may find it’s difficult to read and think. Since you are used to this easy and -fun way of going through those videos, you won’t want to do anything that takes time or effort. Another reason is that wrong decisions may be made when you act too quickly. For example, if you watch a video that says someone is bad, you might believe it and even write a comment (评论). But later, you find out the story in the video is made up, and you may feel sorry and even angry at yourself. See, you become less smart little by little without noticing it. Maybe it’s time to wake up—you need a better way to have fun! 45. Does algorithmic recommendation make it difficult for us to refuse short videos? ______________________________________________________ 46. How may people feel when they find out the story in the video is made up? ______________________________________________________ 47. Why do short videos make people stupid? ______________________________________________________ 48. If you want to break the “information cocoon”, what will you do?

I know clearly how you feel when seeing a better drawing from your friend. I’m surely not the best artist in the world, but I always love making pictures. That’s why I got so ____11____ about Mr. Pacino’s candy-label (标签) idea when I was young. Mr. Pacino is my father’s friend who ____12____ a candy shop as well. One day he happened to stop by when my friend Alice and I were drawing with chalk (粉笔) in front of my house. “Wow! Excellent pictures!” he said, trying not to step on them ____13____ he walked towards the door. “I really love your drawings! Would you offer to help make some pictures so that I can use them ____14____ the label?” He smiled to us, “just have fun—no need to ____15____ making everything perfect.” Then he left. With his words, we imagined ourselves being talented artists at the moment. And we began to draw right away. We both enjoyed the way we were drawing. ____16____, we stopped and looked at each other’s work. One minute I liked my drawing best. And the next minute I felt like the ____17____ artist ever after comparing our works. How strange it was! After an hour, Mr. Pacino returned and said, “I truly love your drawings. Both of them are so special that I can’t wait to use them for my label.” A look of joy appeared on his face, “Hey, girls, what about working together in a fun and eye-catching way? I believe that’ll be the perfect label I want.” I could see what Pacino ____18____. It seemed like a waste of time and energy (精力) to try to compete with my friend. Each piece was different but amazing in ____19____ own way—even mine. So, dear Not an Artist, I know it can be upset when you start comparing yourself with others. But try not to do so. There’s no right or wrong way to make art. Since everybody has different tastes and styles, nobody has to agree on what makes a piece of good ____20____.

C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一封给自称“不是艺术家”的人的回信，主要分享了作者对于艺术创作的看法和经历。作者通过回忆小时候与友人一起为Pacino先生的糖果店画标签的经历，表达了对艺术创作的热爱和对完美主义的摒弃。 【11题详解】 句意：这就是为什么我年轻时对帕西诺的糖果标签创意如此兴奋。 nervous紧张的；angry生气的；careful认真的；excited兴奋的。根据“but I always love making pictures.”可知，作者一直喜欢画画，所以她对帕西诺的糖果标签创意感到兴奋。故选D。 【12题详解】 句意：帕西诺先生是我父亲的朋友，他也有一家糖果店。 owns拥有；sells卖；changes改变；develops发展。根据“a candy shop”可知，此处指帕西诺先生有一家糖果店。故选A。 【13题详解】 句意：“哇！优秀的图片！”他边说边朝门口走去，尽量不踩到它们。 unless除非；since自从；after在……之后；as当……时。根据“‘Wow! Excellent pictures!’ he said, trying not to step on them... he walked towards the door.”可知，帕西诺先生是边说边朝门口走去，应用连词as，表示两个动作同时发生。故选D。 【14题详解】 句意：你能帮忙做一些图片吗，我可以用它们做标签？ from来自；with具有；for为了；at在。根据“I can use them... the label”可知，此处指把图片用作标签，use sth for“把某物用作……”。故选C。 【15题详解】 句意：他笑着对我们说：“玩得开心就好——不必担心把每件事都做到完美。” care for照顾；worry about担心；put off推迟；depend on依靠。根据“just have fun”可知，帕西诺先生是开玩笑的，因此此处指不必担心把每件事都做到完美。故选B。 【16题详解】 句意：最后，我们停下来看了看彼此的作品。 Suddenly突然；Recently最近；Finally最后；Strangely奇怪地。根据“we stopped and looked at each other’s work.”和上一句可知，她们立刻开始画画，到最后停下来看了看彼此的作品。故选C。 【17题详解】 句意：下一分钟，在比较了我们的作品后，我觉得自己是有史以来最糟糕的艺术家。 best最好的；worst最糟糕的；kindest最友好的；hardest最困难的。根据“How strange it was!”可知，“One minute I liked my drawing best.”和“And the next minute I felt like the... artist ever after comparing our works.”是表示两种完全相反的感觉，因此应该填best的反义词worst。故选B。 【18题详解】 句意：我明白帕西诺的意思。 did做；showed展示；imagined想象；meant意味着。根据“I could see what Pacino...”可知，此处指帕西诺先生所说的话的意思。故选D。 【19题详解】 句意：每一件作品都是不同的，但都以自己的方式令人惊叹——即使是我的。 your你的；its它的；her她的；my我的。主语是“Each piece”，因此用形容词性物主代词its，表示每件作品都有自己的独特之处。故选B。 【20题详解】 句意：因为每个人都有不同的品味和风格，所以没有人必须在什么是好的艺术作品上达成一致。 candy糖果；label标签；art艺术；music音乐。根据文章内容可知，本文主要讨论的是艺术创作，因此此处指艺术。故选C。 Ⅳ.阅读理解（每小题2分，共30分） 阅读下列材料，从A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳答案，并把答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑。 A Gravity is what keeps you on the ground. It pulls you back to the ground when you jump in the air. Without gravity, you would fly into outer space. Gravity pulls everything towards the center of the Earth with a certain amount (数量) of force (力). This amount of force is called weight. You can find the weight of an object (物品) by putting it on the scale. All planets and moons have a force of gravity. Some planets and moons have more gravity than the Earth and some have less. The planet in the solar system with the strongest force of gravity is Jupiter (木星). The Moon is smaller than the Earth. This means that it has less gravity than the Earth. Things will weigh less on the Moon than on the Earth. If you weighed 60 pounds on the Earth, you would weigh about 10 pounds on the Moon! Since there is less gravity on the Moon, people can jump higher there. If you threw a ball on the Moon, it would fly very far. Some planets like Saturn (土星) are much bigger than the Earth. Objects weigh more on these bigger planets. There is more force that pulls things down. On Jupiter, you would weigh about twice as much as you weigh on the Earth. Your arms would weigh twice as much, too! How would it feel to throw a baseball? Some things might be easier to do on the Jupiter. Imagine how fast you could skate down a hill. There would be more gravity pulling you down! 21. Which of the following can best describe the word “scale” in Paragraph 1? A. A way that helps you to lose weight and stay fit. B. A tool that tells you the right size of something. C. A machine that tells you how tall an object is. D. An instrument that shows how heavy a thing is. 22. How much would a man weigh on the Moon if he weighed 120 pounds on the Earth? A. About 20 pounds. B. About 60 pounds. C. About 180 pounds. D. About 720 pounds. 23. What’s the purpose of this passage? A. To introduce some ways to study gravity. B. To imagine humans’ life without gravity. C. To give basic information about gravity. D. To discuss gravity in humans’ daily life. 【答案】21. D 22. A 23. C 【解析】 【导语】本文主要介绍了重力的基本概念及其在不同天体上的表现。 【21题详解】 词义猜测题。根据“This amount of force is called weight. ”和“ You can find the weight of an object (物品) ”可知，scale是用来测量物体重量的工具，D选项符合。故选D。 【22题详解】 推理判断题。根据“If you weighed 60 pounds on the Earth, you would weigh about 10 pounds on the Moon.”可推算出，地球与月球上的重量比例约为6:1。因此，120磅在地球上的人在月球上约重20磅。故选A。 【23题详解】 主旨大意题。全文通过介绍重力的定义、测量方式、在不同星球的表现等内容，提供了关于重力的基本信息。故选C。 B Michael was a professional football player, but in 2017 he had an accident in a swimming pool. After that, he couldn’t move his body from the shoulders down. Doctors told him that he’d probably never walk again, but Michael didn’t want to believe this. He had recently got engaged (订婚) to the woman who is now his wife and he said that she was the main reason he wanted to get better. He spent six days staring at his toes and trying to make them move—and, finally, he succeeded! This was the start of a long journey. While in hospital, Michael met John, a man in his late thirties. Doctors had also told John he would never walk again, but Michael encouraged him not to give up and six months later, John told Michael he was walking with a stick. Only a year after his accident, Michael climbed the highest mountain in Wales. Since then he has also climbed a 6,500-meter mountain in Nepal and he said that after each big climb he noticed his body could do new movements. Two years later, 31-year-old Michael climbed 8,848 meters, the height of the world’s highest mountain, by going up and down his parents’ stairs 2,783 times. When he finished, he told a news reporter he had loved it although it sometimes was “painful” and “boring”. He also raised £46,000 for charity (慈善). Michael hopes his story can help people. That’s why he started his own charity, M2M, which aims to support “people facing challenges in life”. 24. How did the writer mainly develop Michael’s story? A. By listing important numbers. B. By comparing with other people. C. By giving facts in time order. D. By asking interesting questions. 25. What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 5 refer to? A. Going up and down stairs. B. Doing new movements. C. Climbing the mountains. D. Raising money for charity. 26. Put the events about Michael in the correct order according to the passage. a. Michael started M2M. b. Michael succeeded in making his toes move. c. Michael had an accident in a swimming pool. d. Michael climbed the highest mountain in Wales. e. Michael climbed his parents’ stairs 2,783 times. A. c-e-b-d-a. B. c-b-d-e-a. C. e-a-b-d-c. D. e-b-d-c-a. 27. What would be the best title for the passage? A. A Football Player B. A Charity Worker C. A Mountain Climber D. A Challenge Lover 【答案】24. C 25. A 26. B 27. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，主要讲了迈克尔在2017年游泳事故导致瘫痪后，通过努力恢复身体机能，先后攀登多座山峰、以爬楼梯模拟登顶珠峰并筹集善款，还创立慈善组织M2M帮助面临生活挑战的人。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。根据“in 2017”“After that”“Only a year after his accident”“Two years later”，可知，作者主要按时间顺序展开迈克尔故事。故选C。 【25题详解】 词句猜测题。根据“climbed 8,848 meters...by going up and down his parents’ stairs 2,783 times”可知，“it”指代“上下楼梯”这一行为。故选A。 【26题详解】 细节理解题。根据“he had an accident in a swimming pool.”“ He spent six days staring at his toes and trying to make them move—and, finally, he succeeded!”“ Only a year after his accident, Michael climbed the highest mountain in Wales.”“ Two years later … by going up and down his parents’ stairs 2,783 times.”以及“That’s why he started his own charity, M2M”可知，正确顺序为迈克尔先在游泳池发生事故，随后成功让脚趾移动，一年后攀登威尔士最高峰，两年后上下楼梯2783次，最后创立慈善组织M2M。正确顺序为c-b-d-e-a。故选B。 【27题详解】 最佳标题题。根据“which aims to support ‘people facing challenges in life’.”并通读全文可知，迈克尔在事故后挑战身体极限、挑战生活困境、创立慈善组织帮助他人展开，突出其“热爱挑战”的核心品质。故选D。 C Chinese calligraphy (书法) is an art form of writing Chinese characters (汉字), often with a brush and ink (墨) on Xuan paper. The development of Chinese calligraphy began from the Shang Dynasty (16th century—11th century BC) in Anyang, Henan Province, as one way to record dates on animal bones (骨头). Over time, calligraphy slowly took shape as a form of art instead of only a way of record. There are mainly five famous styles: running, cursive, official, seal and regular. Each of them shows its special beauty. Calligraphy is a challenging art. The type of brush, ink and paper can all change the output. From brush inclination (倾斜度) and direction to speed of writing, every turn of the wrist (手腕) is also seriously managed. The structure of every character can influence its quality (质量) as well. Moreover, it is said that the feelings of the writer are shown on calligraphy. Calligraphy is a beautiful art. Lan Ting Xu (the Orchid Pavilion Preface), created by Wang Xizhi during the Eastern Jin Dynasty (317—420), is one of the most famous works of Chinese calligraphy. Its beauty gives it both historical and cultural importance in Chinese culture. ▲ Like the Spring Festival couplets (对联) on the doors, calligraphy can be easily seen in Chinese families. It is also learned as a hobby for both the young and the old. Where there is Chinese language, there is Chinese calligraphy, and where there is calligraphy, there is beauty. The art is still highly valued today, for it is more than just writing, and it is a national treasure. 28. What was the early form of calligraphy used to do? A. Draw pictures. B. Keep diaries. C. Record daily life. D. Record dates. 29. How can you understand the phrase “running, cursive, official, seal and regular” in Paragraph 1 in Chinese? A. 楷书方正善 B. 行云流水意 C. 行草隶篆楷 D. 紫砂笔墨添 30. Which sentence can be put in the ▲ ? A. Calligraphy is quite useful in our life. B. Calligraphy is not far from our life. C. Calligraphy is popular with the young and the old. D. Calligraphy is the most popular art form now. 31. What can we infer from the passage? A. People from Henan are very good at calligraphy. B. Calligraphy can only be used in Chinese language. C. Wang Xizhi’s feelings are shown on the calligraphy of Lan Ting Xu. D. Wang Xizhi was hardworking and practiced calligraphy every day. 【答案】28. D 29. C 30. B 31. C 【解析】 【导语】本文主要介绍了中国书法的历史、艺术特点、表现形式及其文化价值。 【28题详解】 细节理解题。根据“The development of Chinese calligraphy began from the Shang Dynasty (16th century—11th century BC) in Anyang, Henan Province, as one way to record dates on animal bones (骨头).”可知，早期书法用于记录日期。故选D。 【29题详解】 词句猜测题。根据“Over time, calligraphy slowly took shape as a form of art instead of only a way of record. There are mainly five famous styles: running, cursive, official, seal and regular.”可知，此处是指书法的五种著名的字体风格，因此可知，画线句子表示“行书、草书、隶书、篆书、楷书”这五种字体。故选C。 【30题详解】 推理判断题。根据“Like the Spring Festival couplets (对联) on the doors, calligraphy can be easily seen in Chinese families.”可知，书法能够在中国家庭中被看见，说明它离我们的生活并不远，B选项“书法离我们的生活并不远”符合。故选B。 【31题详解】 推理判断题。根据“Moreover, it is said that the feelings of the writer are shown on calligraphy.”可推知，王羲之情感在《兰亭序》书法中得以展现。故选C。 D ①A Long March 2F rocket carrying the Shenzhou-18 spacecraft with three taikonauts was successfully sent into space on April 25th from the Jiuquan Satellite Launch (发射) Center in Northwest China. ②The taikonauts are Ye Guangfu, Li Cong and Li Guangsu, with Ye as the leader. It is Ye’s second time to go to space within 3 years. And this is Li Cong and Li Guangsu’s first space flight. ③This launch has a lot of breakthroughs (突破). First of all, launching in April is really challenging. April is famous for being very windy and sandy in the center. So, experts carefully planned the best time to launch according to the April wind speed data from the last 10 years. Secondly, there have been greater technological developments in both the spacecraft and the rocket to improve safety. Another big change worth mentioning is the new battery (电池) for the spacecraft. It is lighter and can work longer. ④The three taikonauts will have many tasks during their stay. More than 90 experiments (实验) covering areas such as material science, life science and medicine will be done in space. ⑤A very special task is to raise zebrafish in space. They will create a simple ecosystem to study how the space environment affects (影响) their growth and system balance. If the experiment succeeds, it will be an important breakthrough in keeping vertebrates (脊椎动物) in China’s space program. ⑥Moreover, they will also learn how plants change and get used to the environment by doing the first-ever stem cell (干细胞) study in space. This will help to choose proper vegetables for space farming. ⑦Besides these experiments, the taikonauts will do two or three space walks. And they will further keep the safety of the space station. ⑧Exploring space is not just a dream for our country. We are making new achievements, showing the world that China is becoming stronger and stronger. And we are sure the Shenzhou-18 crew will do well, although the tasks have become more complicated and harder. 32. If you want to add a paragraph about “stories of the three taikonauts”, where can you put it? A. After Para.2. B. After Para.3. C. After Para.4. D. After Para.5. 33. The breakthroughs of this launch include ________. ①launch in April ②use of the new battery ③changes in wind speed ④developments in technology A. ①②③ B. ①③④ C. ①②④ D. ②③④ 34. What can we infer from the passage? A. This is the first space flight for these three taikonauts in China. B. Taikonauts may not need to take vegetables to space in the future. C. The taikonauts will be able to keep any animal they like in space. D. More than 90 experiments will be done during the space journey. 35. Which of the following can best show the structure of this passage? A. B. C. D. 【答案】32. A 33. C 34. B 35. D 【解析】 【导语】本文主要介绍了搭载神舟十八号飞船和三名航天员的长征二号F火箭在中国西北的酒泉卫星发射中心成功发射升空。 【32题详解】 推理判断题。根据“The taikonauts are Ye Guangfu, Li Cong and Li Guangsu, with Ye as the leader. It is Ye’s second time to go to space within 3 years. And this is Li Cong and Li Guangsu’s first space flight.”可知第二段总体介绍了三名宇航员，故接下来可继续介绍三名宇航员的故事，即放第二段之后。故选A。 【33题详解】 细节理解题。根据“launching in April is really challenging”可知在4月份发射真的很有挑战性；根据“Secondly, there have been greater technological developments in both the spacecraft and the rocket to improve safety. Another big change worth mentioning is the new battery (电池) for the spacecraft. ”可知航天器和火箭的技术都有了更大的发展，从而提高了安全性，另一个值得一提的重大变化是新电池。故选C。 【34题详解】 推理判断题。根据“they will also learn how plants change and get used to the environment by doing the first-ever stem cell (干细胞) study in space. This will help to choose proper vegetables for space farming.”可知他们还将通过首次在太空中进行干细胞研究，了解植物如何改变和适应环境，这将有助于选择适合太空农业的蔬菜，可推知在未来宇航员可能不需要带蔬菜到太空。故选B。 【35题详解】 篇章结构题。通读全文可知，第一和第二段主要介绍了神舟十八号飞船的基本信息；第三段介绍了这次发射的突破；第四段介绍三名宇航员有很多任务，第五至第七段是展开介绍宇航员的任务；第八段进行总结。故选项D符合文章结构。故选D。 Ⅴ. 阅读填空（每空2.5分，共10分） More and more people think that life is better in the city than the countryside. For the first time in history more than 50% of the world’s population lives in the cities. However, there are still many groups of people who live in some of the wildest places on the planet. The Kalahari is a large area of bush (灌木) land in southern Africa. It has two parts. The south part is drier than the north and plants do not grow there very well. Every year at the end of summer it rains and the land becomes more beautiful than at other times of the year. But the grass and the bushes soon get dry and turn brown again. Life there is difficult. The San are a group of people who live in the Kalahari. They live in huts, eat wild animals-even lions-plants and berries. They are very good with bows and arrows, and use them for hunting. Up in the mountains of central Papua New Guinea is the Chimbu Province. This jungle area is one of the world’s most remote places. It is also home to Mt Wilhelm, the highest mountain on the island. Several different tribes (部落) live in the valleys (山谷) between the mountains. One of these is the Chimbu skeleton (骷髅) dancers. They paint skeletons onto their bodies. This makes them look scarier in order to keep other people away from their land. The Yamal Peninsula in northern Siberia is one and a half times bigger than France. It is frozen for much of the year and temperatures can reach -50°C in the winter. But this area is home to a tribe of about 10,000 people called the Nenets. The Nenets are nomadic, meaning they often move from one place to another. Each year around 300,000 deer move around the land and the Nenets always go with them. The recent finding of gas in the area means more people than before are visiting the Yamal. So the Nenets now have more communication with people from other places. 根据文章内容，用自己的语言概括文章。在空白处填入恰当的单词或短语，每空最多3个词。 There are many groups of people living in far-away places on the planet. The San are a group of people who live in the Kalahari. The ____36____ in the south part causes problems for plants growing. People need ____37____ with bows and arrows to get food. The Chimbu skeleton dancers are one of the tribes living in the Chimbu Province. They paint scary things on their bodies to ____38____. The Nenets often move from one place to another. The finding of gas tells us they have more communication with the ____39____ world. 【答案】36. dry weather 37. to hunt 38. keep others away 39. outside 【解析】 【导语】本文主要介绍了世界上住在偏远地区的三个部落。 【36题详解】 根据“The south part is drier than the north and plants do not grow there very well.”可知，南部干燥的天气导致植物生长不好。故填dry weather。 【37题详解】 根据“They are very good with bows and arrows, and use them for hunting.”可知，人们需要用弓箭来打猎。need sth. to do sth.需要某物做某事。故填to hunt。 【38题详解】 根据“They paint skeletons onto their bodies. This makes them look scarier in order to keep other people away from their land.”可知，他们把可怕的东西涂在身上是为了让其他人远离他们的土地。故填keep others away。 【39题详解】 根据“So the Nenets now have more communication with people from other places.”可知，天然气资源的发现让他们与外界有了更多的交流。故填outside。 Ⅵ.口语应用（每小题1分，共5分） 阅读下面对话，从七个选项中选出五个恰当的句子完成对话。 A: Excuse me. ____40____ B: Yes, I am.

Studies even show that more and more people watch short videos all day long. So why is it so hard to say no to short videos? Algorithmic recommendation (算法推荐) must be the answer. It is so smart that it can find our likes. The more we like something, the more it will feed us similar information. Now, you see why it’s so hard to refuse short videos. It’s time to work out why you will become stupid if you keep watching it. When you spend hours watching short videos, the algorithm keeps showing you things similar to what you’ve already liked. This situation is called “information cocoon” (信息茧房). After watching many videos, you may think you know a lot. But actually, you only see the same kind of things again and again—like staying in a small room all the time. Also, you may find it’s difficult to read and think. Since you are used to this easy and -fun way of going through those videos, you won’t want to do anything that takes time or effort. Another reason is that wrong decisions may be made when you act too quickly. For example, if you watch a video that says someone is bad, you might believe it and even write a comment (评论). But later, you find out the story in the video is made up, and you may feel sorry and even angry at yourself. See, you become less smart little by little without noticing it. Maybe it’s time to wake up—you need a better way to have fun! 45.
