Its exciting performance at the 2025 Spring Festival Gala also impressed many people. This winter vacation, I went back to my hometown Shantou, a place known for its rich culture and traditions. Luckily, I had the chance to watch Yingge dance up close. I stood on the street with many locals and visitors, waiting for the arrival of the performers. Soon, a red flag with the words “Shengqian Yingge Team” led the way, followed by a big group of energetic dancers. The performers wore bright, colorful clothes and carried wooden sticks. I heard the sound of gongs (锣) and sticks. They moved their sticks skillfully, making them seem like part of their bodies. Sometimes, they shouted, making the performance even more exciting. The mix of music, movement and sound brought joy to everyone. The biggest surprise was seeing my uncle dance! After the show, he told me that Yingge Dance came from old stories about heroes. We made the dance faster and clothes more colorful to make young people interested. I realized they weren’t just keeping the tradition, but also changing it for today. That’s why Shantou now has over 50 Yingge teams, many with teenage members. By mixing old and new ideas, we develop and renew (更新) the cultural tradition. Traditions can stay alive if we pass them on in creative ways. 29. What first showed the arrival of Yingge dancers? A. A red flag with team name. B. The sound of drums and gongs. C. Sounds from the tourists and locals. D. The mix of music and movements. 30. Why did the dancers make the dance faster and clothes more colorful? A. To follow traditional rules. B. To save time during the show. C. To interest young people. D. To compete with other teams. 31.

To compare Yingge Dance with other modern dances. D. To share how a cultural tradition is being renewed. 【答案】29. A 30. C 31. A 32. D 【解析】 【导语】本文介绍了英歌舞的传承及创新。 【29题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“Soon, a red flag with the words ‘Shengqian Yingge Team’ led the way, …”可知，带有队名的红旗显示英歌舞者的到来。故选A。 【30题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“We made the dance faster and clothes more colorful to make young people interested.”可知，让舞蹈跳得更快，让衣服更鲜艳是为了让年轻人对英歌舞感兴趣。故选C。 【31题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“Soon, a red flag with the words …I heard the sound of gongsand sticks.” 我看见一面红旗，听到锣声；“They moved their sticks skillfully,… they shouted…”表演者们拿着木棍跳舞，高声叫喊；第三段“After the show, he told me that Yingge Dance came from old stories about heroes”我叔叔讲解了英歌舞的历史：“I realized they weren’t just keeping the tradition, but also changing it for today…By mixing old and new ideas, we develop and renewthe cultural tradition.

It is because the brain often considers going through a door as entering a new place. This causes you to lose your memory for a while and forget why you went there. This is just one example about how our memory works in our brain. Forgetting really makes people unhappy, but our brain can only work in this way—by staying in a balance of forgetting something easily and remembering something clearly. Our memory shapes who we are and allows us to form relationships. It is also a tool for keeping us alive. By learning what’s dangerous and remembering simple information like where to live comfortably or where to find food, humans make better choices about what will be good for us and what to avoid. When learning new information, whether it’s a challenging skill or a name of an object, the brain forms new connections between neurons (神经元). The busier the neural map is, the smarter you will become. But just as a smart phone slows down when it stores too much information, your brain also slows down when it has too much to deal with. It will actively forget some unused information or unimportant feelings by making neurons less connected. This helps prevent too much information and control terrible memories to keep people calm for daily life. Forgetting also builds creativity. Long-term memories (长期记忆) may make our thoughts and actions too rigid (僵化的) and prevent the brain forming new ideas. When you repeat doing things in the same way, your brain will get used to rigid habits and thoughts. Forgetting is sometimes considered a weakness, but it actually plays an important role. By clearing out unnecessary information, the brain can better take notice of the important information in order to help shape us and keep our mind healthy. 33. How does the writer start the article? A. By giving an example. B. By comparing numbers. C. By offering suggestions. D. By using famous sayings. 34. What does “It” in Paragraph 3 refer to? A. A smart phone. B. The memory. C. The brain. D. The neuron. 35. According to Paragraph 4, forgetting can _________. A. keep people calm for daily life B. encourage the growth of creating C. clean up unnecessary information D. help people get away from danger 36. What’s the best title for this passage? A. How can we have a better memory? B. Why is forgetting not only a weakness? C. Which is more important, forgetting or remembering? D. When is the best time to learn the challenging information? 【答案】33. A 34. C 35. B 36. B 【解析】 【导语】本文主要探讨了遗忘现象在大脑中的功能与作用，指出遗忘不仅是记忆的弱点，更是大脑保持平衡、促进创造力和维持心理健康的重要机制。 【33题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“Have you ever entered a room and suddenly forgotten why you went there?”可知，作者通过举例（进入房间后突然忘记目的）引入话题。故选A。 【34题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第三段“But just as a smart phone slows down… your brain also slows down… It will actively forget…”可知，it指代前句主语“your brain”。故选C。 【35题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“Forgetting also builds creativity”及后文可知，遗忘能打破思维僵化，促进新想法的形成。故选B。 【36题详解】 最佳标题题。全文通过分析遗忘的积极作用（如信息筛选、促进创造力等），说明其不仅是弱点。选项B最契合主题。故选B。 D Cook was making little “tuk-tuk-tuk” sounds. Sadio had her hand over her mouth. Hans was trying so hard to understand. Only Godber’s man was enjoying himself. It was his story. “What’s wrong? What’s happened?” “There’s been an awful accident,” Cook said. “A man’s been killed.” “A man killed! Where? How? When?” But Godber’s man wanted to tell the story. “You know those little cottages (小屋) just down the road from here, Miss?” Of course she knew them. “Well, there’s a young man called Scott living there. He has a horse and cart. Something frightened the horse in town this morning, the cart (马车) turned over, and Scott fell in the road on the back of his head. Killed.” “Dead!” Laura stared at Godber’s man. “Dead when they picked him up,” Godber’s man said. “They were taking the body home as I was coming here.” Then he said, “He’s left a wife and five little ones.” “Jose, come here!” Laura took her sister’s hand and pulled her across the kitchen and through the door. “Jose” she said, “how can we stop everything?” “Stop everything, I aura!” cried Jose. “What do you mean?” “Stop the garden party, of course.” “Stop the garden party? My dear Laura, don’t be unreasonable. Of course we can’t stop the party. Nobody expects us to. Don’t be so silly.” “But we can’t possibly have a garden party with a man dead just outside the front gate.” That really was silly, because the Sheridans’ house was on a hill, and the cottages were right down at the bottom of the hill. There was a wide road between them. True, they were still much too near. They were not suitable neighbours for people like the Sheridans. The cottages were ugly little low brown things. Nothing but rubbish grew in their gardens. Even the smoke coming from their chimneys (烟囱) looked poor. The people who lived in them lived by washing other people’s clothes, or mending shoes or cleaning chimneys. And they all had far too many children. When the Sheridan children were little, they were not allowed to go near the cottages, for fear that they heard bad language or caught some awful disease. But now that they were grown up, Laura and Laurie sometimes walked past. It was dirty and unpleasant, but Laura and Laurie believed that they should experience all sides of life. They must go everywhere; they must see everything. “Think how that poor woman will feel if she hears a band playing,” said Laura. “Oh, Laura!” Jose was seriously angry. “If you want to stop a band every time someone has an accident, you’re going to have a very difficult life. I’m just as sorry about it as you are.” 37. What were Scott’s living conditions like? A. Poor. B. Safe. C. Modern. D. Comfortable. 38. What does the underlined word “frightened” probably mean? A. Scared. B. Calmed. C. Excited. D. Amazed. 39. Why did Laura want to stop the garden party? A. Because she thought the party was boring. B. Because someone expected her to stop it. C. Because a man died outside the front gate. D. Because she couldn’t afford to hold the party. 40. What might the next paragraph of the passage be about? A. How Jose had fun in the garden party. B. How Laura succeeded in stopping the party. C. How Laura invited Scott’s children to the party. D. How Laurie stopped his two sisters from fighting. 【答案】37. A 38. A 39. C 40. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，讲述Sheridan家计划举办花园聚会时，得知附近小屋一青年Scott意外身亡，留下妻儿。Laura认为此时聚会不妥，欲取消，而姐姐Jose反对。两人就应否继续聚会产生分歧。 【37题详解】 细节理解题。根据原文“The cottages were ugly little low brown things. Nothing but rubbish grew in their gardens. Even the smoke coming from their chimneys looked poor. The people who lived in them lived by washing other people’s clothes, or mending shoes or cleaning chimneys. And they all had far too many children.”可知，Scott居住的小屋很丑陋，花园里只有垃圾，烟囱冒出的烟看起来也很穷，他们靠洗衣服、修鞋或打扫烟囱为生，且孩子很多。因此，Scott的生活条件很贫穷。故选A。 【38题详解】 词句猜测题。根据原文“Something frightened the horse in town this morning, the cart turned over, and Scott fell in the road on the back of his head. Killed.”可知，马受到了惊吓，导致马车翻了，Scott摔倒在路上并丧生。因此，“frightened”在此处的意思是“使害怕，使惊恐”，与“Scared”意思相近。故选A。 【39题详解】 细节理解题。根据原文“But we can’t possibly have a garden party with a man dead just outside the front gate.”可知，Laura想停止花园聚会是因为前门外面有一个人死了。故选C。 【40题详解】 推理判断题。根据原文“‘Oh, Laura!’ Jose was seriously angry. ‘If you want to stop a band every time someone has an accident, you’re going to have a very difficult life. I’m just as sorry about it as you are.’”可知，Jose对于Laura想要停止花园聚会的想法非常生气，并表示如果每次有人出事都停止聚会，生活将会非常艰难。因此，可以推断出接下来的段落可能会描述Laura如何成功地说服Jose停止花园聚会，或者描述Laura在尝试停止聚会时遇到的困难和挑战。而选项B“How Laura succeeded in stopping the party.”（劳拉是如何成功阻止聚会的。）最符合这一推理。故选B。 第二节（共5小题；每小题1分，满分5分） 根据短文内容，从短文后所给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。 National parks are popular with visitors. However, a handful of visitors break national park rules, which leads to them getting hurt. And they aren’t the only victims (受害者) — the environment, animals, and park infrastructure (基础设施) often take the biggest hit. It doesn’t have to be this way! ___41___ Never be close to wildlife ___42___ But the real problem isn’t that they’ll hurt you.

Its exciting performance at the 2025 Spring Festival Gala also impressed many people. This winter vacation, I went back to my hometown Shantou, a place known for its rich culture and traditions. Luckily, I had the chance to watch Yingge dance up close. I stood on the street with many locals and visitors, waiting for the arrival of the performers. Soon, a red flag with the words “Shengqian Yingge Team” led the way, followed by a big group of energetic dancers. The performers wore bright, colorful clothes and carried wooden sticks. I heard the sound of gongs (锣) and sticks. They moved their sticks skillfully, making them seem like part of their bodies. Sometimes, they shouted, making the performance even more exciting. The mix of music, movement and sound brought joy to everyone. The biggest surprise was seeing my uncle dance! After the show, he told me that Yingge Dance came from old stories about heroes. We made the dance faster and clothes more colorful to make young people interested. I realized they weren’t just keeping the tradition, but also changing it for today. That’s why Shantou now has over 50 Yingge teams, many with teenage members. By mixing old and new ideas, we develop and renew (更新) the cultural tradition. Traditions can stay alive if we pass them on in creative ways. 29. What first showed the arrival of Yingge dancers? A. A red flag with team name. B. The sound of drums and gongs. C. Sounds from the tourists and locals. D. The mix of music and movements. 30. Why did the dancers make the dance faster and clothes more colorful? A. To follow traditional rules. B. To save time during the show. C. To interest young people. D. To compete with other teams. 31. Which is the right order of the following events according to the passage? ① I realized the importance of mixing old and new ideas. ② I saw a red flag and heard the sound of gongs. ③ My uncle explained the history of Yingge Dance. ④ Performers danced with wooden sticks and shouted. A. ②④③① B. ②③①④ C. ④③①② D. ④②①③ 32. What is the main purpose of this passage? A. To list the steps of performing Yingge Dance. B. To discuss the history of Shantou’s traditions. C. To compare Yingge Dance with other modern dances. D. To share how a cultural tradition is being renewed. C Have you ever entered a room and suddenly forgotten why you went there? It is because the brain often considers going through a door as entering a new place. This causes you to lose your memory for a while and forget why you went there. This is just one example about how our memory works in our brain. Forgetting really makes people unhappy, but our brain can only work in this way—by staying in a balance of forgetting something easily and remembering something clearly. Our memory shapes who we are and allows us to form relationships. It is also a tool for keeping us alive. By learning what’s dangerous and remembering simple information like where to live comfortably or where to find food, humans make better choices about what will be good for us and what to avoid. When learning new information, whether it’s a challenging skill or a name of an object, the brain forms new connections between neurons (神经元). The busier the neural map is, the smarter you will become. But just as a smart phone slows down when it stores too much information, your brain also slows down when it has too much to deal with. It will actively forget some unused information or unimportant feelings by making neurons less connected. This helps prevent too much information and control terrible memories to keep people calm for daily life. Forgetting also builds creativity. Long-term memories (长期记忆) may make our thoughts and actions too rigid (僵化的) and prevent the brain forming new ideas. When you repeat doing things in the same way, your brain will get used to rigid habits and thoughts. Forgetting is sometimes considered a weakness, but it actually plays an important role. By clearing out unnecessary information, the brain can better take notice of the important information in order to help shape us and keep our mind healthy. 33. How does the writer start the article? A. By giving an example. B. By comparing numbers. C. By offering suggestions. D. By using famous sayings. 34. What does “It” in Paragraph 3 refer to? A. A smart phone. B. The memory. C. The brain. D. The neuron. 35. According to Paragraph 4, forgetting can _________. A. keep people calm for daily life B. encourage the growth of creating C. clean up unnecessary information D. help people get away from danger 36. What’s the best title for this passage? A. How can we have a better memory? B. Why is forgetting not only a weakness? C. Which is more important, forgetting or remembering? D. When is the best time to learn the challenging information? D Cook was making little “tuk-tuk-tuk” sounds. Sadio had her hand over her mouth. Hans was trying so hard to understand. Only Godber’s man was enjoying himself. It was his story. “What’s wrong? What’s happened?” “There’s been an awful accident,” Cook said. “A man’s been killed.” “A man killed! Where? How? When?” But Godber’s man wanted to tell the story. “You know those little cottages (小屋) just down the road from here, Miss?” Of course she knew them. “Well, there’s a young man called Scott living there. He has a horse and cart. Something frightened the horse in town this morning, the cart (马车) turned over, and Scott fell in the road on the back of his head. Killed.” “Dead!” Laura stared at Godber’s man. “Dead when they picked him up,” Godber’s man said. “They were taking the body home as I was coming here.” Then he said, “He’s left a wife and five little ones.” “Jose, come here!” Laura took her sister’s hand and pulled her across the kitchen and through the door. “Jose” she said, “how can we stop everything?” “Stop everything, I aura!” cried Jose. “What do you mean?” “Stop the garden party, of course.” “Stop the garden party? My dear Laura, don’t be unreasonable. Of course we can’t stop the party. Nobody expects us to. Don’t be so silly.” “But we can’t possibly have a garden party with a man dead just outside the front gate.” That really was silly, because the Sheridans’ house was on a hill, and the cottages were right down at the bottom of the hill. There was a wide road between them. True, they were still much too near. They were not suitable neighbours for people like the Sheridans. The cottages were ugly little low brown things. Nothing but rubbish grew in their gardens. Even the smoke coming from their chimneys (烟囱) looked poor. The people who lived in them lived by washing other people’s clothes, or mending shoes or cleaning chimneys. And they all had far too many children. When the Sheridan children were little, they were not allowed to go near the cottages, for fear that they heard bad language or caught some awful disease. But now that they were grown up, Laura and Laurie sometimes walked past. It was dirty and unpleasant, but Laura and Laurie believed that they should experience all sides of life. They must go everywhere; they must see everything. “Think how that poor woman will feel if she hears a band playing,” said Laura. “Oh, Laura!” Jose was seriously angry. “If you want to stop a band every time someone has an accident, you’re going to have a very difficult life. I’m just as sorry about it as you are.” 37. What were Scott’s living conditions like? A. Poor. B. Safe. C. Modern. D. Comfortable. 38. What does the underlined word “frightened” probably mean? A. Scared. B. Calmed. C. Excited. D. Amazed. 39. Why did Laura want to stop the garden party? A. Because she thought the party was boring. B Because someone expected her to stop it. C. Because a man died outside the front gate. D. Because she couldn’t afford to hold the party. 40. What might the next paragraph of the passage be about? A. How Jose had fun in the garden party. B. How Laura succeeded in stopping the party. C. How Laura invited Scott’s children to the party. D. How Laurie stopped his two sisters from fighting. 第二节（共5小题；每小题1分，满分5分） 根据短文内容，从短文后所给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。 National parks are popular with visitors.
