(这个节日是一种独特而丰富多彩的庆祝夏末的方式。)”可知，La Tomatina庆祝的是夏末。故选A项。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。根据Scottsdale Arts Festival — Scottsdale, Arizona中的“Visitors can also sample local food and drinks while enjoying the art exhibits. (游客还可以在欣赏艺术展览的同时品尝当地的食物和饮料。)”可知，游客在Scottsdale Arts Festival可以品尝当地的食物。故选B项。 【3题详解】 细节理解题。根据Oktoberfest — German中的“Oktoberfest is a world-famous beer festival held annually in Munich, Germany. The festival attracts millions of visitors each year, with people from all over the world coming to sample the local beer. (Oktoberfest是每年在德国慕尼黑举行的世界著名的啤酒节。这个节日每年吸引数百万游客，来自世界各地的人们都来这里品尝当地的啤酒。)”可知，Oktoberfest吸引啤酒爱好者。故选B项。 B When I was a kid, my mother used to tell me Chinese folk stories before bedtime. My mother is an immigrant. She told me those stories so that I wouldn’t forget the culture that she had left behind. Even though I hadn’t ever experienced that culture at first hand, she wanted me to remember it. Of all her stories, my favorites were about Sun Wukong, the monkey king who had many super powers. Eventually, though, I moved on to other kinds of heroes. When I was in the fifth grade, I bought my first American comic book. Afterwards, Superman, Spider-Man, and Captain America replaced Monkey King in my heart. I became crazy about comic books. I loved them so much that I went on to work towards a career in comics. Today I am a professional graphic novelist. My most well-known book is American Born Chinese, published in 2006. Monkey King is one of my main characters, but the book isn’t a direct adaptation of my mother’s stories. Instead, I invited Monkey King into my story so that I could talk about the uneasiness of growing up as an Asian American. The character I knew from my childhood expressed his emotions without reservation. I needed him to emote on my pages. For research, I tracked down an English translation of Journey to the West, the centuries-old Chinese classic that first told the monkey king’s story. As I read it, I realized that American superheroes hadn’t replaced Sun Wukong in my heart after all. Superman, Spider-Man, and Captain America were simply Western expressions of everything I loved about the monkey king. The monkey king’s story has lasted for centuries and travelled across continents and cultures. Journey to the West is the very definition of timeless. My mother now has Alzheimer’s. She’s forgotten all of the stories she used to tell me, but I remember. In many ways, I’ve built my whole career on those moments before bedtime. With every comic book I create, I am trying to relive the wonder I felt when my mother told me the stories of Sun Wukong. 4. Why did the author start to read Journey to the West? A. To connect American superheroes with Sun Wukong. B. To study the original for creation of his own works. C. To learn the philosophy of life in Journey to the West. D. To compare Western literature with Chinese classics. 5. What did the author’s mother expect him to do? A. Earn a living by writing. B. Experience Chinese culture first hand. C. Keep their cultural roots. D. Remember all the stories she told him. 6. What can be learnt about the book American Born Chinese? A. It is a best-seller among American born Chinese. B. It reflects the growing pains of American children. C. It encourages people to seek their fortune abroad. D. It is partly inspired by the story of Sun Wukong. 7. How did the Chinese folk stories told by the author’s mother influence his later career? A. Profound. B. Sufficient. C. Shallow. D. Ambiguous. 【答案】4. B 5. C 6. D 7. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了作者小时候听母亲讲孙悟空的故事，后来喜欢美国漫画英雄，成为漫画小说家后创作作品受孙悟空故事影响的经历。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“Instead, I invited Monkey King into my story so that I could talk about the uneasiness of growing up as an Asian American. The character I knew from my childhood expressed his emotions without reservation. I needed him to emote on my pages.(于是，我将美猴王引入我的故事，借他之口诉说亚裔美国人的成长阵痛。这个童年熟知的人物从不懂情感克制，而我正需要他在字里行间恣意挥洒情绪)”和第五段中“For research, I tracked down an English translation of Journey to the West, the centuries old Chinese classic that first told the monkey king’s story.(为了研究，我找到了《西游记》的英文译本，这部古老的中国经典首次讲述了美猴王的故事)”可知，作者阅读《西游记》是为了研究原著用于自己作品的创作。故选B项。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“She told me those stories so that I wouldn’t forget the culture that she had left behind. Even though I hadn’t ever experienced that culture at first hand, she wanted me to remember it.(她给我讲那些故事，这样我就不会忘记她留下的文化。尽管我没有亲身经历过那种文化，但她希望我记住它)”可知，作者的母亲期望他记住他们的文化根源。故选C项。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“My most well-known book is American Born Chinese, published in 2006. Monkey King is one of my main characters, but the book isn’t a direct adaptation of my mother’s stories.(我最著名的书是2006年出版的《美国出生的中国人》。美猴王是我的主要角色之一，但这本书并不是对我母亲故事的直接改编)”可知，这本书部分灵感来源于孙悟空的故事。故选D项。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“In many ways, I’ve built my whole career on those moments before bedtime. With every comic book I create, I am trying to relive the wonder I felt when my mother told me the stories of Sun Wukong.(在很多方面，我的整个职业生涯都是建立在那些睡前时光之上的。我创作的每一本漫画书，都在试图重温母亲给我讲孙悟空故事时我感受到的奇妙感觉)”可知，作者母亲讲的中国民间故事对他后来的职业生涯影响深远。故选A项。 C In May 2021, a hole was found in a robotic arm aboard the International Space Station (ISS). The culprit (罪魁祸首) was believed to be a piece of space junk. While thankfully no astronauts were injured, it has refocused attention on the growing problem of orbital debris (残骸). It’s easy to forget that just seven decades ago the Moon was the only thing orbiting the Earth. On 1 January 2021, there were 6,542 satellites in orbit. Tellingly, only just over half of them were active. That’s a lot of useless metal rushing around the planet at 28,000 kilometers per hour. Jan Wörner, the former European Space Agency Director General, put it this way: “Imagine how dangerous sailing the high seas would be if all the ships ever lost in history were still moving around on top of the water.” In fact, even the smallest pieces can cause huge amounts of damage. The problem is very bad and getting worse. There are currently about half a million pieces of debris about one centimeter wide or larger and 100 million pieces of debris above one millimeter across. Yet only 27,000 pieces are actively tracked. Space is only going to get more crowded, with the number of satellite launches set to increase by five times in the next decade. In January 2021, 143 satellites were launched into space on a single SpaceX Falcon rocket alone. And 12,000 more are to be put in orbit by Starlink over the next five years. All this significantly raises the chances of collisions (撞击). Better control of new launches would help, as right now it’s a bit of a free-for-all. Increased monitoring of existing space junk could also help because active satellites can be moved off a collision course—yet dead satellites are sitting ducks and there’s nothing we can do to prevent a collision. That’s why many are calling for a clean-up job. A space debris removal mission called ClearSpace-1 will be launched in 2025 and attempt to de-orbit the upper stage of a rocket left in space back in 2013. 8. What is the main factor that worsens the space junk problem? A. The high speed of orbital debris. B. The difficult procedures of debris clean-up. C. The large amount of untracked space debris. D. The insufficient functions of clean-up facilities. 9. What can we learn about space junk? A. It can be recycled for other uses. B. It has injured astronauts in space. C. It first appeared over seven decades ago. D. It threatens the safety of space activities. 10. What does the underlined phrase “sitting ducks” in the last paragraph mean? A. Things easy to attack. B Things hard to track. C. Things failing to function. D. Things set in a fixed position. 11. Which of the following can be the best title for the text? A. Orbital Debris: What Results in It? B. Satellite Launches: The More the Merrier? C. Space Junk: Is It a Disaster Waiting to Happen? D. Satellite Collisions: Who Should Be Responsible? 【答案】8. C 9. D 10. A 11. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章围绕太空垃圾问题展开，介绍了太空垃圾的现状，包括其数量庞大且不断增多，以及对太空活动安全构成的威胁，还探讨了应对太空垃圾问题的一些措施，如更好地控制新发射、加强监测和清理等。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。由第四段“There are currently about half a million pieces of debris about one centimeter wide or larger and 100 million pieces of debris above one millimeter across. Yet only 27,000 pieces are actively tracked. (目前大约有50万片宽度约一厘米或更大的残骸，以及1亿片直径超过一毫米的残骸。然而，只有27000片被积极追踪)”可知，大量的太空残骸处于未被追踪状态。这使得人类无法对其进行有效管理和控制，从而加剧了太空垃圾问题。所以使太空垃圾问题恶化的主要因素是大量未被追踪的太空残骸。故选C项。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“In May 2021, a hole was found in a robotic arm aboard the International Space Station (ISS). The culprit (罪魁祸首) was believed to be a piece of space junk. (2021年5月，国际空间站（ISS）上的一个机械臂上发现了一个洞。罪魁祸首被认为是一块太空垃圾)”以及第三段“Imagine how dangerous sailing the high seas would be if all the ships ever lost in history were still moving around on top of the water. In fact, even the smallest pieces can cause huge amounts of damage. (想象一下，如果历史上所有失踪的船只都还在水面上移动，在公海上航行会有多危险。事实上，即使是最小的碎片也会造成巨大的破坏)”可知，太空垃圾对太空活动的安全构成了威胁。故选D项。 【10题详解】 词义猜测题。根据最后一段“because active satellites can be moved off a collision course—yet dead satellites are sitting ducks and there’s nothing we can do to prevent a collision. (因为活跃的卫星可以被移开以避开碰撞路线——然而，报废的卫星是sitting ducks，我们无法采取任何措施来防止碰撞)”，通过对比可知，活跃卫星能移动躲避碰撞，而报废卫星无法移动，极易受到太空垃圾的撞击，由此推断sitting ducks意思是“容易撞击的东西”。故选A项。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“In May 2021, a hole was found in a robotic arm aboard the International Space Station (ISS). The culprit (罪魁祸首) was believed to be a piece of space junk. While thankfully no astronauts were injured, it has refocused attention on the growing problem of orbital debris (残骸). (2021年5月，国际空间站（ISS）上的一个机械臂上发现了一个洞。罪魁祸首被认为是一块太空垃圾。谢天谢地，没有宇航员受伤，但这再次将注意力集中在日益严重的轨道残骸问题上)”引出太空垃圾问题，以及第五段“Space is only going to get more crowded, with the number of satellite launches set to increase by five times in the next decade. All this significantly raises the chances of collisions (撞击). (太空只会变得更加拥挤，未来十年卫星发射数量将增加五倍。所有这些都大大增加了碰撞的可能性)”等说明未来太空垃圾问题更严峻，文章主要讲述了太空垃圾问题日益严重，大量的太空垃圾对太空活动构成了威胁，突出了太空垃圾可能带来的严重后果。C“太空垃圾：这是一场即将发生的灾难吗？”符合主题，适合用作标题，故选C项。 D An important lesson in the moral education of children could be as close as the book in their hands. Stories can play a role in shifting the importance of particular moral values in young audiences, according to the results of a new study. “Media can markedly influence separate moral values and get kids to place more or less importance on those values depending on what is uniquely stressed in that content,” says Lindsay Hahn, PhD, assistant professor of communication in the University at Buffalo College of Arts and Sciences. Hahn is the first author of the new study, which adds an important part to a body of literature that explores how media content affects children. While many previous studies have focused on broad conceptualizations, like positive or negative effects of specific content, Hahn’s study looks at reading content featuring specific moral values (care, fairness, loyalty, and authority) that influence the weight kids place on those values. Do children reading about particular moral characteristics absorb those qualities as building blocks for their own morality? The findings suggest so, and further support how this indirect approach to socializing children’s morality can add to the direct teaching of moral principles kids might receive through formal instruction. For the study, Hahn and her colleagues took the main character from a teen story and edited the content to reflect in each version the study’s focus on one of four moral values. A fifth version was changed in a way that featured an amoral (不道德的) main character. The stories were shared with about 200 participants between the ages of 10 and 14. The team then created a scale (量表) designed to measure the importance kids place on moral values to find out how participants might be influenced by specific stories. “Measuring these effects can be difficult,” says Hahn of the research, published in the Journal of Media Psychology. “That’s why one purpose of this research was to develop a measure of moral values for kids. Nothing like that exists yet, that we know of.” 12. What can we infer from Hahn’s statement in paragraph 2? A Stories with amoral characters can weaken children’s sense of morality. B. Formal instruction is less effective than media in teaching moral principles. C. Media has the power to adjust children’s emphasis on specific moral values. D. Media’s impact on kids’ morality is limited to broad positive or negative effects. 13. What is paragraph 3 mainly about? A. The response of the general public to Hahn’s study. B. The contribution of Hahn’s study to children’s literature. C. The difference between Hahn’s study and previous studies. D. The branches of research on media influences on children. 14. What do the results of the study show? A. Good virtues can carry children through hard times. B. Good morals in stories help shape children’s values. C. Teaching moral principles directly to kids seems useless. D. Reading stories is a better approach than formal instructions. 15. What did Hahn’s team do for the study? A. They created a chain story out of an old character. B. They tested different moral principles in children. C. They illustrated the study for younger participants. D. They adapted a character and created five stories. 【答案】12. C 13. C 14. B 15. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了一项新的研究发现故事能影响孩子对特定道德价值观的重视程度。 【12题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中““Media can markedly influence separate moral values and get kids to place more or less importance on those values depending on what is uniquely stressed in that content,” says Lindsay Hahn, PhD, assistant professor of communication in the University at Buffalo College of Arts and Sciences.(布法罗大学艺术与科学学院传播学助理教授林赛·哈恩博士说：“媒体能显著影响个体道德价值观的形成，并通过内容侧重点的差异，引导儿童强化或弱化对特定价值观的重视程度。”)可知，哈恩说媒体能显著影响个体道德价值观的形成，能引导儿童强化或弱化对特定价值观的重视程度。由此推知，媒体有能力调整孩子们对特定道德价值观的重视程度。故选C项。 【13题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第三段中“While many previous studies have focused on broad conceptualizations, like positive or negative effects of specific content, Hahn’s study looks at reading content featuring specific moral values (care, fairness, loyalty, and authority) that influence the weight kids place on those values.(虽然许多以前的研究都集中在宽泛的概念上，比如特定内容的积极或消极影响，但哈恩的研究着眼于具有特定道德价值观(关怀、公平、忠诚和权威)的阅读内容，这些内容会影响孩子们对这些价值观的重视程度。)可知，此段主要讲了哈恩的研究与以往研究的不同之处。故选C项。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中“Do children reading about particular moral characteristics absorb those qualities as building blocks for their own morality? The findings suggest so, and further support how this indirect approach to socializing children’s morality can add to the direct teaching of moral principles kids might receive through formal instruction.(阅读具有特定道德特征的内容的孩子们会将这些品质吸收为自己道德的基石吗?研究结果表明是这样的，并且进一步支持了这种间接培养孩子道德的方法如何能补充孩子们通过正规教育可能获得的道德原则的直接教学。)可知，故事中的良好道德有助于塑造孩子的价值观。故选B项。 【15题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段中“For the study, Hahn and her colleagues took the main character from a teen story and edited the content to reflect in each version the study’s focus on one of four moral values. A fifth version was changed in a way that featured an amoral (不道德的) main character.(为了这项研究，哈恩和她的同事从一个青少年故事中选取了主角，并编辑内容，使每个版本都体现研究关注的四种道德价值观之一。第五个版本进行了修改，以一个不道德的主角为特色。)可知，哈恩的团队改编了一个角色并创作了五个故事。故选D项。 第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Fancy a holiday to the Moon? Sounds crazy? Not really. A Japanese company has been working on how to organize holidays to the Moon for several years now. ____16____ Trying to make the holiday possible will not be an easy task, and the Japanese company plans to make it in stages. ____17____ A transport system, like the space shuttle (航天飞机) used by NASA, at the moment is likely to be developed for this purpose. The second stage is to build a big hotel 500 km above the Earth. The hotel will circle around the Earth once every four or five hours, which will offer visitors some fascinating views of the Earth. ____18____ While this may not seem very exciting at first, think about new sports that can be designed for people to play in zero gravity. ____19____ As solar energy would be used to provide power, it would be important to build the hotel near one of the poles of the Moon in order to gather as much solar energy as possible. This is because a lunar day, which is 14 Earth days long, is followed by 14 days of darkness. It is also important to find a part of the Moon which is flat, as a long runway will need to be built for the space shuttle to land on. Meanwhile, the company has already developed ways to make cement (水泥) on the Moon. ____20____ The company plans to produce water from oxygen element (氧元素), which can be found in Moon rocks, and hydrogen (氢), which have to be imported from the Earth. So perhaps in a few years you might be enjoying yourselves on the Moon. A. Next, the hotel will have a wide range of sporting activities. B Tourists who want to travel into space trips can stay at a big hotel. C. The first thing to do is to organize trips around the Earth for a few hours. D. There is plenty of sand, but the big problem will come with producing water. E. There would probably be holidays to a Moon hotel within the next few decades. F. This part of the development plan does not seem to be too difficult to carry out. G. The final stage in the plan is the construction of a hotel on the surface of the Moon itself. 【答案】16. E 17. C 18. A 19. G 20. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍日本公司分阶段推进月球度假计划，包括近地旅行、建造太空酒店及月球酒店的设想。 【16题详解】 根据上文的“A Japanese company has been working on how to organize holidays to the Moon for several years now.(一家日本公司多年来一直在研究如何组织月球度假。)”可知，开篇提及公司的月球度假计划，空格处需衔接“计划可行性”。E选项“There would probably be holidays to a Moon hotel within the next few decades.(未来几十年内可能会有月球酒店的度假项目。)”中的“within the next few decades”呼应“for several years now”，“Moon hotel”引出下文分阶段建设内容，承上启下。故选E项。 【17题详解】 根据上文的“Trying to make the holiday possible will not be an easy task, and the Japanese company plans to make it in stages. (想要让这个假期成为可能并非易事，这家日本公司计划分阶段实现这一目标。)”及下文的“A transport system, like the space shuttle (航天飞机) used by NASA, at the moment is likely to be developed for this purpose. (目前，为实现这一目标，可能需要开发一种类似美国国家航空航天局所使用的航天飞机的运输系统。)”可知，该计划分为几个步骤，以及一套运输系统，比如使用现在的美国宇航局的航天飞机，可能实现该目的，由此可推断，空格处需说明第一阶段内容。C选项“The first thing to do is to organize trips around the Earth for a few hours.(首先要做的是组织绕地球几小时的旅行。)”明确第一阶段为近地旅行，符合分阶段逻辑。故选C项。 【18题详解】 根据上文的“The hotel will circle around the Earth once every four or five hours, which will offer visitors some fascinating views of the Earth.(这家酒店将每四到五小时绕地球一圈，为游客提供一些迷人的地球景观。)”讲述这家太空宾馆的运行方式，结合下文的“While this may not seem very exciting at first, think about new sports that can be designed for people to play in zero gravity. (虽然乍一听这可能并不太令人兴奋，但试想一下可以设计出供人们在零重力环境下进行的新运动。)”可知，本句介绍了新的运动，由此可知推断，空格处需过渡到酒店内的活动。A选项“Next, the hotel will have a wide range of sporting activities.(接下来，这家酒店将提供各种各样的体育活动。)”中的“Next”承接酒店介绍，“sporting activities”对应“new sports in zero gravity”，衔接自然。故选A项。 【19题详解】 根据下文的“As solar energy would be used to provide power, it would be important to build the hotel near one of the poles of the Moon in order to gather as much solar energy as possible. (由于将使用太阳能供电，因此将酒店建在月球的某一极点附近至关重要，以便尽可能多地收集太阳能。)”可知，本段转向“月球表面酒店”的建设。G选项“The final stage in the plan is the construction of a hotel on the surface of the Moon itself.(该计划的最后阶段是在月球表面建造一家酒店。)”中的“The final stage”对应上文“分阶段”，且点明阶段目标，概括了本段的主题。故选G项。 【20题详解】 根据上文的“Meanwhile, the company has already developed ways to make cement on the Moon.(与此同时，该公司已经研发出了在月球上制造水泥的方法。)”以及下文的“The company plans to produce water from oxygen element, which can be found in Moon rocks, and hydrogen, which have to be imported from the Earth.(该公司计划用月球岩石中的氧元素和从地球进口的氢来生产水。)”可知，核心问题为水的生产。D选项“There is plenty of sand, but the big problem will come with producing water.(月球上有大量沙子，但最大的问题将来自水的生产。)”中的“big problem”引出下文“制水方案”，“producing water”与“produce water from oxygen and hydrogen”完全对应，符合问题-解决方案的逻辑。故选D项。 第三部分 语言知识运用(共两节，满分30分) 第一节(共15小题;每小题1分，满分15分) 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 As Amy Hagadorn rounded the corner across the hall from her classroom, she crashed with a tall boy from the fifth grade. “Watch it, squirt.” The boy ____21____ as he sidestepped around the little third-grader.

All the students in our class were sitting anxiously except one, a tall handsome boy named Tommy who was considered the one most likely to win the race. Even, unlike other competitors, he was quite relaxed, standing beside the track and stretching himself. “Tommy! I bet you’ll win.” I yelled at him. “Just wait and see!” A big smile spread across his face. “May I have your attention, please? All the athletes are requested to proceed to the registration office.” A gentle voice caught our attention. “Tommy, your show time!” I shouted and gave him a thumb-up. Then, I saw all the athletes went to register, preparing for the game. Soon they were all on the starting line. Taking the best recording location, I raised my smartphone, ready to shoot. With the loud sound of the starting gun, all the competitors threw themselves forwards from the starting line like arrows. Tommy quickly took the lead with his excellent explosive power from long-term training. But there was one problem for me-I had to spare every effort to control my excitement in order to keep my shooting picture stable. “Come on, Tommy!” Still, I could hear the cheers of our classmates higher and higher. It seemed that Tommy had heard the powerful shouts and became full of strength. He kept adjusting his breath, maintaining a steady rhythm, and approaching the finish line step by step. Finally, with the cheers of the audience, Tommy crossed the finish line almost at the same time with the second-place finisher. How I wish I could rush to him and give him a big bear hug! But I could not. I had to finish recording the whole race, so I waited until the last competitor crossed the finish line. Suddenly, I noticed there was an unusual noise from the crowd. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为 150 左右： 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Tommy was ranked second on the scoreboard. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The judge admitted the error and announced Tommy was the real champion. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】范文 Tommy was ranked second on the scoreboard. Feeling puzzled, Tommy immediately found the judge and pointed out this mistake politely. However, the second-place finisher insisted he was the winner. No one could tell exactly what had happened. Tommy was at a loss what to do, feeling frustrated. Then it suddenly occurred to me that I had recorded the whole process. Rushing to the judge, I showed him the video, which clarified the fact that it was Tommy who first arrived. The judge admitted the error and announced Tommy was the real champion. After learning the truth, the audience broke into thunderous applause. Tommy shouldered his way through the crowd, gate ring me in his arms with a proud smile on his face. We both knew this was not just a victory of a race, but also a victory of sticking to the truth and daring to fight for it in the face of injustice. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了汤米参加赛跑比赛，最后几乎与第一名同时冲过了终点线。结果汤米却显示排名第二，汤米没有屈服，坚持查明真相，最终裁判承认了误判，宣布汤米是真正的冠军。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“汤米在记分牌上排名第二”可知，第一段可描写汤米坚持查明真相，作者也帮助澄清了真相。 ②由第二段首句内容“裁判承认了误判，宣布汤米是真正的冠军”可知，第二段可描写汤米取得冠军以及作者的感悟。 2.续写线索：排名第二——找到教练——帮助澄清——承认误判——宣布冠军——作者感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①澄清：clarify/justify ②承认：admit/acknowledge ③坚持：stick to/ persist in 情绪类 ①困惑的：puzzled/confused ②沮丧的：frustrated/upset 【点睛】[高分句型1] Then it suddenly occurred to me that I had recorded the whole process. (运用了it 作形式主语、that引导的主语从句是真正的主语) [高分句型2] Rushing to the judge, I showed him the video, which clarified the fact that it was Tommy who first arrived.

B When I was a kid, my mother used to tell me Chinese folk stories before bedtime. My mother is an immigrant. She told me those stories so that I wouldn’t forget the culture that she had left behind. Even though I hadn’t ever experienced that culture at first hand, she wanted me to remember it. Of all her stories, my favorites were about Sun Wukong, the monkey king who had many super powers. Eventually, though, I moved on to other kinds of heroes. When I was in the fifth grade, I bought my first American comic book. Afterwards, Superman, Spider-Man, and Captain America replaced Monkey King in my heart. I became crazy about comic books. I loved them so much that I went on to work towards a career in comics. Today I am a professional graphic novelist. My most well-known book is American Born Chinese, published in 2006. Monkey King is one of my main characters, but the book isn’t a direct adaptation of my mother’s stories. Instead, I invited Monkey King into my story so that I could talk about the uneasiness of growing up as an Asian American. The character I knew from my childhood expressed his emotions without reservation. I needed him to emote on my pages. For research, I tracked down an English translation of Journey to the West, the centuries-old Chinese classic that first told the monkey king’s story. As I read it, I realized that American superheroes hadn’t replaced Sun Wukong in my heart after all. Superman, Spider-Man, and Captain America were simply Western expressions of everything I loved about the monkey king. The monkey king’s story has lasted for centuries and travelled across continents and cultures. Journey to the West is the very definition of timeless. My mother now has Alzheimer’s. She’s forgotten all of the stories she used to tell me, but I remember. In many ways, I’ve built my whole career on those moments before bedtime. With every comic book I create, I am trying to relive the wonder I felt when my mother told me the stories of Sun Wukong. 4. Why did the author start to read Journey to the West? A. To connect American superheroes with Sun Wukong. B. To study the original for creation of his own works. C. To learn the philosophy of life in Journey to the West. D. To compare Western literature with Chinese classics. 5. What did the author’s mother expect him to do? A. Earn a living by writing. B. Experience Chinese culture first hand. C. Keep their cultural roots. D. Remember all the stories she told him. 6 What can be learnt about the book American Born Chinese? A. It is a best-seller among American born Chinese. B. It reflects the growing pains of American children. C. It encourages people to seek their fortune abroad. D. It is partly inspired by the story of Sun Wukong. 7. How did the Chinese folk stories told by the author’s mother influence his later career? A. Profound. B. Sufficient. C. Shallow. D. Ambiguous. C In May 2021, a hole was found in a robotic arm aboard the International Space Station (ISS). The culprit (罪魁祸首) was believed to be a piece of space junk. While thankfully no astronauts were injured, it has refocused attention on the growing problem of orbital debris (残骸). It’s easy to forget that just seven decades ago the Moon was the only thing orbiting the Earth. On 1 January 2021, there were 6,542 satellites in orbit. Tellingly, only just over half of them were active. That’s a lot of useless metal rushing around the planet at 28,000 kilometers per hour. Jan Wörner, the former European Space Agency Director General, put it this way: “Imagine how dangerous sailing the high seas would be if all the ships ever lost in history were still moving around on top of the water.” In fact, even the smallest pieces can cause huge amounts of damage. The problem is very bad and getting worse. There are currently about half a million pieces of debris about one centimeter wide or larger and 100 million pieces of debris above one millimeter across. Yet only 27,000 pieces are actively tracked. Space is only going to get more crowded, with the number of satellite launches set to increase by five times in the next decade. In January 2021, 143 satellites were launched into space on a single SpaceX Falcon rocket alone. And 12,000 more are to be put in orbit by Starlink over the next five years. All this significantly raises the chances of collisions (撞击). Better control of new launches would help, as right now it’s a bit of a free-for-all. Increased monitoring of existing space junk could also help because active satellites can be moved off a collision course—yet dead satellites are sitting ducks and there’s nothing we can do to prevent a collision. That’s why many are calling for a clean-up job. A space debris removal mission called ClearSpace-1 will be launched in 2025 and attempt to de-orbit the upper stage of a rocket left in space back in 2013. 8. What is the main factor that worsens the space junk problem? A. The high speed of orbital debris. B. The difficult procedures of debris clean-up. C. The large amount of untracked space debris. D. The insufficient functions of clean-up facilities. 9. What can we learn about space junk? A. It can be recycled for other uses. B It has injured astronauts in space. C. It first appeared over seven decades ago. D. It threatens the safety of space activities. 10. What does the underlined phrase “sitting ducks” in the last paragraph mean? A. Things easy to attack. B. Things hard to track. C. Things failing to function. D. Things set in a fixed position. 11. Which of the following can be the best title for the text? A. Orbital Debris: What Results in It? B. Satellite Launches: The More the Merrier? C. Space Junk: Is It a Disaster Waiting to Happen? D. Satellite Collisions: Who Should Be Responsible? D An important lesson in the moral education of children could be as close as the book in their hands. Stories can play a role in shifting the importance of particular moral values in young audiences, according to the results of a new study. “Media can markedly influence separate moral values and get kids to place more or less importance on those values depending on what is uniquely stressed in that content,” says Lindsay Hahn, PhD, assistant professor of communication in the University at Buffalo College of Arts and Sciences. Hahn is the first author of the new study, which adds an important part to a body of literature that explores how media content affects children. While many previous studies have focused on broad conceptualizations, like positive or negative effects of specific content, Hahn’s study looks at reading content featuring specific moral values (care, fairness, loyalty, and authority) that influence the weight kids place on those values. Do children reading about particular moral characteristics absorb those qualities as building blocks for their own morality? The findings suggest so, and further support how this indirect approach to socializing children’s morality can add to the direct teaching of moral principles kids might receive through formal instruction. For the study, Hahn and her colleagues took the main character from a teen story and edited the content to reflect in each version the study’s focus on one of four moral values. A fifth version was changed in a way that featured an amoral (不道德的) main character. The stories were shared with about 200 participants between the ages of 10 and 14. The team then created a scale (量表) designed to measure the importance kids place on moral values to find out how participants might be influenced by specific stories. “Measuring these effects can be difficult,” says Hahn of the research, published in the Journal of Media Psychology. “That’s why one purpose of this research was to develop a measure of moral values for kids. Nothing like that exists yet, that we know of.” 12. What can we infer from Hahn’s statement in paragraph 2? A. Stories with amoral characters can weaken children’s sense of morality. B. Formal instruction is less effective than media in teaching moral principles. C. Media has the power to adjust children’s emphasis on specific moral values. D. Media’s impact on kids’ morality is limited to broad positive or negative effects. 13. What is paragraph 3 mainly about? A. The response of the general public to Hahn’s study. B. The contribution of Hahn’s study to children’s literature. C. The difference between Hahn’s study and previous studies. D. The branches of research on media influences on children. 14. What do the results of the study show? A. Good virtues can carry children through hard times. B. Good morals in stories help shape children’s values. C. Teaching moral principles directly to kids seems useless. D. Reading stories is a better approach than formal instructions. 15. What did Hahn’s team do for the study? A. They created a chain story out of an old character. B. They tested different moral principles in children. C. They illustrated the study for younger participants. D. They adapted a character and created five stories. 第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Fancy a holiday to the Moon? Sounds crazy? Not really.

My assignment was to record the 400-meter race in the sports meet. All the students in our class were sitting anxiously except one, a tall handsome boy named Tommy who was considered the one most likely to win the race. Even, unlike other competitors, he was quite relaxed, standing beside the track and stretching himself. “Tommy! I bet you’ll win.” I yelled at him. “Just wait and see!” A big smile spread across his face. “May I have your attention, please? All the athletes are requested to proceed to the registration office.” A gentle voice caught our attention. “Tommy, your show time!” I shouted and gave him a thumb-up. Then, I saw all the athletes went to register, preparing for the game. Soon they were all on the starting line. Taking the best recording location, I raised my smartphone, ready to shoot. With the loud sound of the starting gun, all the competitors threw themselves forwards from the starting line like arrows. Tommy quickly took the lead with his excellent explosive power from long-term training. But there was one problem for me-I had to spare every effort to control my excitement in order to keep my shooting picture stable. “Come on, Tommy!” Still, I could hear the cheers of our classmates higher and higher. It seemed that Tommy had heard the powerful shouts and became full of strength. He kept adjusting his breath, maintaining a steady rhythm, and approaching the finish line step by step. Finally, with the cheers of the audience, Tommy crossed the finish line almost at the same time with the second-place finisher. How I wish I could rush to him and give him a big bear hug! But I could not. I had to finish recording the whole race, so I waited until the last competitor crossed the finish line. Suddenly, I noticed there was an unusual noise from the crowd. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为 150 左右： 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Tommy was ranked second on the scoreboard. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The judge admitted the error and announced Tommy was the real champion. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
