In all the time I’ve spent in China, I’ve had my share of emotional crises. I can’t remember which one it was in particular, but I do remember how my adopted “aunt” Li once took care of me, settling me in an armchair in her Chengdu apartment, bringing me a cup of green tea, peeling and cutting fruit for me, chatting about unrelated matters as she prepared one of her wonderful Sichuanese suppers. Like many Chinese people, particularly those of the older generation, she didn’t show her love for me by hugging or requesting emotional outpourings, but through food and over-concern.
It took me a while to become used to this way of expressing affection. At first I found it bossy and bossy: “Have some porridge! Drink some soup! Put on some more clothes!” But over time I came to understand what it meant. I can always tell, now, when someone Chinese is becoming fond of me because they start to become over-worried about my physical needs, urging me to eat or drink, to wrap up warm, to rest. When serious-faced chef barks at me to have some more baozi for breakfast or Li presses me to have another mouthful of her red-braised pork, I know they are offering me the delicious equivalent of a hug.
Food in China can mean many things. It is also art and craft and magic. It is the slices of fish that fall like snow from the knife of the chef, the slivers of meat that dance in the shimmering heat of the wok (炒菜锅), the grains of millet or rice that swell in the steamer. It is the employment of armies of microorganisms in the clay vat of jiang (酱菜缸) or the wine jar, the creating of a hundred flavors in a tiny kitchen, the transformation of natural raw materials into numerous forms. It is finding ways to generate delight in everything from a duck’s tongue to the peel of an orange. It is one of the supreme expressions of human wit and creativity.
Above all, it is what connects us and makes us human.
4. Why does the writer mention her mental distress at the beginning?
A. To introduce how Chinese express their love. B. To compare the difference in two cultures.
C. To highlight how fragile the writer used to be. D. To remind readers of the writer’s homesickness.
5. What did the author think of “aunt” Li’s way of expressing love at first?
A. Demanding and cruel. B. Impolite and bitter.
C. Brave and direct. D. Abrupt and simple.
6. How does the writer develop paragraph 3 to further explain her idea?
A. By making comparison. B. By analyzing cause and effect.
C. By offering more examples. D. By classifying cooking methods.
7. What message does the author intend to convey through the text?
A. Every region has its own specialty. B. When in Rome, do as the Romans do.
C. Food is culture, and culture is food. D. The proof of the pudding is in the eating.
【答案】4. A 5. D 6. C 7. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。文章通过作者在中国的生活经历,展现了中国人尤其是长辈,如何通过食物表达关爱,并深入探讨了食物在中国文化中的多重意义——既是情感纽带,也是艺术创造和人文精神的体现。
【4题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段中“In all the time I’ve spent in China, I’ve had my share of emotional crises. I can’t remember which one it was in particular, but I do remember how my adopted “aunt” Li once took care of me (在中国生活的这些年里,我也经历过不少情绪低谷。虽然记不清具体是哪一次,但我始终记得“李阿姨”照顾我的情景——她让我坐在成都家中的扶手椅上,给我端来绿茶,削好水果切成块,一边准备着美味的川菜晚餐,一边和我聊着家常)”和“Like many Chinese people, particularly those of the older generation, she didn’t show her love for me by hugging or requesting emotional outpourings, but through food and over-concern. (和许多中国人一样,尤其是老一辈,她表达关爱的方式不是拥抱或要求情感倾诉,而是通过食物和过度的关心)”可推知,作者在开头提到自己的情绪危机,是为了引出“李阿姨”如何通过食物和关心来表达关爱,进而介绍中国人表达爱的方式。故选A项。
【5题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“It took me a while to become used to this way of expressing affection. At first I found it bossy and bossy: “Have some porridge! Drink some soup! Put on some more clothes!” (我花了好一阵子才适应这种表达关爱的方式。起初觉得这种关心方式既专横又霸道:“快喝粥!多喝汤!再加件衣服!”)”可知,作者起初觉得这种关心都是以命令的口吻传达的,有些专横霸道,即粗鲁而简单。故选D项。
【6题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“Food in China can mean many things. It is also art and craft and magic. It is the slices of fish that fall like snow from the knife of the chef, the slivers of meat that dance in the shimmering heat of the wok (炒菜锅), the grains of millet or rice that swell in the steamer. It is the employment of armies of microorganisms in the clay vat of jiang (酱菜缸) or the wine jar, the creating of a hundred flavors in a tiny kitchen, the transformation of natural raw materials into numerous forms. It is finding ways to generate delight in everything from a duck’s tongue to the peel of an orange. (在中国,食物承载着多重意义。它既是艺术,也是工艺,更是一种魔法——是厨师刀下如雪花般飘落的鱼片,是炒锅中随热浪起舞的肉丝,是蒸笼里粒粒饱满的小米或米饭。它是陶缸里酿造酱料的微生物军团,是方寸厨房中幻化的百般滋味,是将天然食材点石成金的奇妙转化。从鸭舌到陈皮,中国人总能发掘出令人惊喜的美味)”可知,作者在本段中列举了多个例子,如厨师的刀工、发酵工艺、食材转化等,说明食物在中国文化中的多元意义。故选C项。
【7题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段中“But over time I came to understand what it meant. I can always tell, now, when someone Chinese is becoming fond of me because they start to become over-worried about my physical needs, urging me to eat or drink, to wrap up warm, to rest. (但久而久之,我渐渐明白了这种表达方式的深意。如今每当有中国人开始关心我的饮食冷暖,叮嘱我多吃多喝、注意保暖、好好休息时,我就知道——他们开始把我当自己人了)”、第三段中“Food in China can mean many things. It is also art and craft and magic. (在中国,食物承载着多重意义。它既是艺术,也是工艺,更是一种魔法)”和最后一段“Above all, it is what connects us and makes us human. (最重要的是,食物连接着彼此,让我们成为真正的人)”可知,作者通过个人经历,描述中国人尤其是长辈,如何通过食物表达关爱,并进一步阐释食物在中国文化中的艺术性、工艺性和人文联结,最终传达“饮食即文化,文化即饮食”这一信息,表明食物是文化与情感的载体。故选C项。
C
Think “art”. What comes to your mind? Is it Greek or Roman sculptures in the Louvre, or Chinese paintings in the Palace Museum? Or maybe, just maybe, it’s a dancing pattern of lights?
The artworks by American artist Janet Echelman look like colourful floating clouds when they are lit up at night. Visitors to one of her artworks in Vancouver could not only enjoy looking at it, they could also interact with it-literally. They did this by using their phones to change its colours and patterns. Exhibits such as these are certainly new and exciting, but are they really art?
Whatever your opinion, people have been expressing their thoughts and ideas through art for thousands of years. To do this, they have used a variety of tools and technologies. Yet Michelangelo and others have been labelled (定义) as “artists”, but not “technicians”. This means that art and technology, have always been seen as two very separate (不同的) things.
Today, however, technological advances have led to a combination of art and technology. As a result, the art world is changing greatly. Now art is more accessible to us than ever before. Take for example one of China’s most famous paintings from the Song Dynasty, Along the River During the Qingming Festival. As this artwork is rarely on display, people have sometimes queued up to six hours for a chance to see it. Once in front of the painting, they only have limited time to spend taking in its five metres of scenes along the Bian River in Bianjing. Thanks to technology however, millions more people have been able to experience a digital version of this painting. Three-dimensional (3D) animation means that viewers can see the characters move around and interact with their surroundings. They can also watch as the different scenes change from daylight into nighttime.
The art-tech combination (结合) is also changing our concepts of “art” and the “artist”. Not only can we interact with art, but also take part in its creation. With new technological tools at our fingertips, more and more people are exploring their creative sides. The result has been exciting new art forms, such as digital paintings and videos.
However, where technology will take art next is anyone’s guess. But one thing is for sure—with so many artists exploring new possibilities, we can definitely expect the unexpected.
8. What’s the function of the first paragraph?
A. To explain the art. B. To introduce the topic.
C. To give the background. D. To give a definition.
9. Why is “Michelangelo” referred to in the third paragraph?
A. To show he is a famous artist.
B. To show he is also a technician.
C. To show art is different from technology.
D. To show art is the same as technology.
10. What’s mainly talked about in the passage?
A. The history of technology and art.
B. The relation of technology and art.
C. The future of technology and art.
D. The examples of technology and art.
11. What can we know about the author’s attitude to the combination of art and technology ?
A Positive. B. Negative. C. Doubtful. D. Uncertain
【答案】8. B 9. C 10. B 11. A
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇议论文。文章主要讨论了将技术与艺术结合的优缺点。
【8题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段“Think “art”. What comes to your mind? Is it Greek or Roman sculptures in the Louvre, or Chinese paintings in the Palace Museum? Or maybe, just maybe, it’s a dancing pattern of lights?(说到“艺术”,你想到了什么?是卢浮宫里希腊或罗马的雕塑?抑或是故宫博物院里中国的名画?又也许,仅仅是也许,是一片舞动的光影?)”以及后文内容,可知,本文主题是技术与艺术结合,所以本段的作用是引出话题。故选B项。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“Whatever your opinion, people have been expressing their thoughts and ideas through art for thousands of years. To do this, they have used a variety of tools and technologies. Yet Michelangelo and others have been labelled (定义) as “artists”, but not “technicians”. This means that art and technology, have always been seen as two very separate (不同的) things.(无论你的看法如何,数千年来人们一直通过艺术表达自己的思想和理念。为此,人们使用了各种各样的工具和技术。然而,米开朗基罗等人一直被称为“艺术家”而非“技巧大师”。这就意味着艺术和科技一直被看作两个截然不同的领域)”可知,本段提到米开朗基罗,是为了展示艺术不同于技术。故选C项。
【10题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第四段“Today, however, technological advances have led to a combination of art and technology. As a result, the art world is changing greatly. Now art is more accessible to us than ever before.(然而,今天,技术的进步导致了艺术与技术的结合。因此,艺术界正在发生巨大的变化。现在我们比以往任何时候都更容易接触艺术)”以及第五段“The art-tech combination (结合) is also changing our concepts of “art” and the “artist”. Not only can we interact with art, but also take part in its creation. With new technological tools at our fingertips, more and more people are exploring their creative sides. The result has been exciting new art forms, such as digital paintings and videos.(艺术与科技的结合也在改变着我们对“艺术”和“艺术家”的概念。我们不仅可以与艺术互动,还可以参与艺术的创作。随着新的技术工具触手可及,越来越多的人正在探索他们的创造力。其结果是令人兴奋的新艺术形式,如数字绘画和视频)”以及纵观全文可知,本文主要讲述了将技术与艺术结合,也就是技术与艺术的关系。故选B项。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“However, where technology will take art next is anyone’s guess. But one thing is for sure—with so many artists exploring new possibilities, we can definitely expect the unexpected.(然而,技术下一步将把艺术带向何方,谁也说不准。但有一件事是肯定的,随着这么多艺术家探索新的可能性,我们肯定可以期待意想不到的事情)”可知,作者认为艺术与技术结合将可以期待,所以是积极的态度。故选A项。
D
The human tendency to gravitate towards people that are similar to them starts early. In school-age children, the behavior called homophily, or “love of the same” often has to do with how others dress or act. Adults tend to form groups based on professions or personalities. However, forming cliques (小集团) and shutting out those that are “different” is not just a human characteristic. South Africa’ s Cape baboons (大狒狒) show similar tendencies too.
A team of researchers followed the same two troops of baboons for several months. What they noticed was that like humans, baboons rarely left their original groups. To prove if their observations were correct, the researchers conducted an experiment.
They began by placing some foods that the baboons had never seen before on the edge of paths the animals frequently crossed. The researchers recorded the time it took a baboon to get close enough to examine the new foods and the time for ones that had the courage to taste them. Sure enough, the most curious and daring baboons all belonged to the same group. What surprised the scientists was that the monkeys with similar personalities hung out together, regardless of whether they were male or female.
The researchers say this behavior is not a good sign for the animals, because the daring and curious baboons are also good problem solvers. The scientists are afraid that if the baboons share new problem-solving skills with only their group, it leaves the rest of the species vulnerable (易受伤害的) to any environmental changes or enemies.
Unfortunately, baboons aren’t the only animals that form cliques. In another study, the scientists divided 80 fish into two groups. After about three weeks, the fish were re-arranged into smaller groups of ten. The researchers observed that many of the fish that had spent time together in the original two groups seemed to seek each other out. What was even more interesting is that once they re-grouped, they were able to find the hidden food much faster. This led the researchers to think that like humans, the fish tended to share their secrets with their best “friend”.
12. What can be used to replace the underlined word “gravitate” in paragraph 1?
A. Lose respect. B. Feel attracted. C. Move oppositely. D. Behave naturally.
13. What did the experiment on baboons show?
A. Baboons associate with similar others.
B. Male baboons tend to be in the same group.
C. Cautious baboons are good at finding new foods.
D. Female baboons are usually braver than male baboons.
14. What might the researchers worry about?
A. Baboons tend to share skills among other groups. B. Baboons may be reduced in numbers.
C. Baboons are suffering from a lack of foods. D. Baboons have difficulty in solving problems.
15. Why is the experiment on fish mentioned?
A. To show they are different from baboons. B. To introduce human-like behavior in fish.
C. To prove other animals form groups as well. D. To explain how they get on with each other.
【答案】12. B 13. A 14. B 15. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了人类和某些动物(如大狒狒和鱼)都倾向于与自己相似的人或动物形成群体的行为。
【12题详解】
词义猜测题。根据第一段中划线词后面的内容“The human tendency to… towards people that are similar to them starts early (人类很早就开始倾向于被与自己相似的人所……。)”以及“ In school-age children, the behavior called homophily, or “love of the same” often has to do with how others dress or act. (在学龄儿童中,这种被称为同质性,或“喜同厌异”的行为,通常与他人的穿着或举止有关。)”可知,后文通过举例来说明:在学龄儿童中存在着“喜同厌异”的行为即前文所提出的人类倾向于被与自己相似的人所吸引,并且这种倾向很早就开始了。故推断画线词“gravitate”在此处意为“被吸引”与B选项“Feel attracted.(被吸引)”为同义词。故选B。
13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段最后一句“What surprised the scientists was that the monkeys with similar personalities hung out together, regardless of whether they were male or female.( 让科学家们感到惊讶的是,性格相似的猴子会在一起,不管它们是公的还是母的。)”可知,具有相似个性的猴子会聚在一起,无论它们是雄性还是雌性。由此可知,狒狒实验表明狒狒会与和自己类似的其他狒狒交往。故选A。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段最后一句“The scientists are afraid that if the baboons share new problem-solving skills with only their group, it leaves the rest of the species vulnerable (易受伤害的) to any environmental changes or enemies.( 科学家们担心,如果狒狒只与他们的群体分享新的解决问题的技能,那么其他物种就会在任何环境变化或敌人面前变得脆弱。)”可知,科学家担心如果狒狒只与它们自己的群体分享新的解决问题的技能,那么其余的狒狒种类就容易受到任何环境变化或敌人的伤害。由此可知,研究人员担心狒狒的数量可能会减少。故选B。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段第一句“Unfortunately, baboons aren’t the only animals that form cliques. (不幸的是,狒狒并不是唯一形成小团体的动物。)”可知,不幸的是,狒狒并不是唯一会形成小团体的动物。根据最后一句“This led the researchers to think that like humans, the fish tended to share their secrets with their best “friend”.( 这让研究人员认为,像人类一样,鱼倾向于与最好的“朋友”分享它们的秘密。)”可知,这使研究人员认为,和人类一样,鱼也倾向于和它们最好的朋友分享秘密。由此可知,提到鱼的实验是为了证明其他动物也会形成群体。故选C。

Will AI Replace Teachers?
The AI teacher is also known as the mechanical teacher. ___16___ It’s a computer or machine that can teach a student according to the level it’s programmed to teach.
While the thought of a reliable computer teaching your child might seem promising, AI cannot adapt its teaching to its students during mid-lesson or read its students’ emotions as a human teacher can. ___17___ It also cannot inspire its students as a human teacher can. The biggest benefit of the human teacher is that he or she gives students human connections they need.
There are some who believe that teachers will be completely replaced by robots by the year 2027 Human teachers do carry with them some disadvantages. Some teachers can be of poor character. Others can have a compromising character or not be as knowledgeable about particular subjects as they should be. ___18___
If you ask anyone the top qualities of a good teacher, an AI cannot meet these standards. They include friendly attitude, listening skills, respectful attitude, strong work ethic, patience, discipline skills, and so forth. AI cannot replace teachers. They cannot give a child what he or she needs. ___19___
___20___ It makes the human teacher’s job easier and helps him or her to be more efficient. This added efficiency allows him or her the time he or she needs to work more one-on-one with students to provide more adaptability and understanding for them. The two things are what an AI teacher would struggle to provide.
A. Frankly speaking, students have their own disadvantages too.
B. It is exactly what it sounds like.
C. However, this does not mean that AI is not necessary.
D. Luckily, the good news is that AI shows more respect for teachers.
E. Students long for the student-teacher bond, cooperation, and love.
F. It fails to simplify problems students have unless it’s programmed to do so.
G. These drawbacks can be corrected, though, through proper monitoring.
【答案】16. B 17. F 18. G 19. E 20. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章主要论述了人工智能无法替代人类教师,但是可以辅助教学,帮助人类教师提升教学效率。
【16题详解】
前文“The AI teacher is also known as the mechanical teacher. (人工智能老师也被称为机器老师)”提到人工智能老师的另一名称,后文“It’s a computer or machine that can teach a student according to the level it’s programmed to teach. (它是一台能根据预设教学水平来教导学生的计算机或机器)”解释机器老师的具体含义,此处需要一个过渡句,肯定机器老师名称的合理性,因此B项“It is exactly what it sounds like. (它正如其名)”符合语境,承前启后。故选B。
【17题详解】
前文“While the thought of a reliable computer teaching your child might seem promising, AI cannot adapt its teaching to its students during mid-lesson or read its students’ emotions as a human teacher can. (尽管一台可靠的计算机来教导孩子的想法看似前景广阔,但人工智能无法像人类教师那样在授课过程中根据学生情况调整教学方式,也无法读懂学生的情绪)”提到与人类教师相比,人工智能教学无法适应学生或读懂情绪,此处应补充人工智能的另一个局限性,因此F项“It fails to simplify problems students have unless it’s programmed to do so. (除非被编程,否则它无法简化学生的问题)”符合语境,承接前文,其中的It指代前文的AI。故选F。
【18题详解】
前文“Human teachers do carry with them some disadvantages. Some teachers can be of poor character. Others can have a compromising character or not be as knowledgeable about particular subjects as they should be. (人类教师确实也存在一些不足之处。有些教师可能品德欠佳,另一些则可能性格软弱,或者在特定学科领域的知识储备达不到应有水平)”列举了人类教师的缺点,此处应补充如何解决这些缺点,因此G项“These drawbacks can be corrected, though, through proper monitoring. (不过,这些缺点可以通过适当的监督来纠正)”符合语境,承接前文,其中的drawbacks呼应前文的disadvantages。故选G。
【19题详解】
前文“AI cannot replace teachers. They cannot give a child what he or she needs. (人工智能无法取代教师。它无法给予孩子真正需要的东西)”强调人工智能无法满足学生的需求,此处应具体说明学生需要什么,因此E项“Students long for the student-teacher bond, cooperation, and love. (学生渴望师生之间的纽带、合作和关爱)”符合语境,承接前文。故选E。
【20题详解】
前文段落主要指出人工智能无法取代人类教师,后文“It makes the human teacher’s job easier and helps him or her to be more efficient. This added efficiency allows him or her the time he or she needs to work more one-on-one with students to provide more adaptability and understanding for them. (人工智能让人类教师的工作更轻松,并帮助他们提高效率。这种效率的提升使教师能够腾出更多时间进行一对一教学,从而为学生提供更具适应性和理解力的教育)”提到人工智能能辅助人类教师提高效率,从而提升教育质量,此处需转折,说明人工智能仍有其必要性,因此C项“However, this does not mean that AI is not necessary. (然而,这并不意味着人工智能是不必要的)”符合语境,和前文构成转折,引出后文。故选C。

【36题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:备受期待的动画电影《哪吒之魔童闹海》自上映以来已成为中国文化现象,不断刷新票房纪录。句子主干成分完整,空处为非谓语,break“打破”和The long-awaited animated film逻辑上是主动关系,因此用break的现在分词形式,作状语。故填breaking。
【37题详解】
考查定语从句。句意:该片由饺子执导,是2019年爆款电影《哪吒之魔童降世》的续作,讲述了叛逆少年英雄哪吒为保护人类,既要对抗外部威胁,又要克服内心挣扎的故事。空处引导限制性定语从句,修饰先行词a rebellious young hero,先行词指人,关系词在从句中作主语,应用关系代词who或that作引导词。故填who/that。
【38题详解】
考查介词。句意:影片的成功不仅在于其震撼的动画效果,更在于深刻的主题。lie in是固定搭配,表示“在于”。故填in。
【39题详解】
考查动词时态和主谓一致。句意:剧情通过激烈的打斗场面和情感戏推进,将中国传统神话与现代叙事手法巧妙融合。空处作句子的谓语,结合本段用一般现在时描述电影内容可知,此处时态也应用一般现在时,主语The plot是单数,progress“进展”应用第三人称单数形式。故填progresses。
【40题详解】
考查冠词。句意:关键场景之一是哪吒与龙王的对抗,一个根植于古代传说的冲突。空处表示泛指,意为“一个冲突”,应用不定冠词,且conflict的发音以辅音音素开头,应用a。故填a。
【41题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:龙王之子敖丙率领军队企图毁灭人类,但哪吒的勇气和对朋友的忠诚扭转了战局。句子已有谓语,空处是非谓语,作The Dragon King’s army的后置定语,lead“领导”和The Dragon King’s army逻辑上是被动关系,因此用lead的过去分词形式。故填led。
【42题详解】
考查名词。句意:龙王之子敖丙率领的军队企图毁灭人类,但哪吒的勇气和对朋友的忠诚扭转了战局。空处和courage并列,作主语,名词loyalty符合题意,意为“忠诚”,是不可数名词。故填loyalty。
【43题详解】
考查形容词。句意:由千余名艺术家打造的惊艳视觉效果,因其非凡的细节和鲜艳色彩广受赞誉。空处作修饰detail的定语,形容词remarkable符合题意,意为“非凡的”。故填remarkable。
【44题详解】
考查连词。句意:它引发了关于身份认同、责任担当以及传统与创新平衡的讨论——这些话题与当代年轻人高度相关。空处连接前后的名词identity、responsibility和the balance,三者之间是并列关系,应用并列连词and。故填and。
【45题详解】
考查副词。句意:它引发了关于身份认同、责任担当以及传统与创新平衡的讨论——这些话题与当代年轻人高度相关。空处修饰形容词relevant,副词highly符合题意,意为“极其,非常”。故填highly。

【答案】Dear fellow students,
As many of our fellow students are becoming increasingly addicted to electronic games, I’m writing to call for healthier lifestyles among students.
Spending excessive time on electronic games not only affects our academic performance but also increases the risk of nearsightedness. I suggest that you play electronic games two times a week at most, with each game limited to 15 minutes. You can allocate some of your game time to other activities and explore alternative hobbies such as sports, arts and crafts, music, reading or volunteering. These activities not only provide enjoyment but also contribute to personal growth and skill development.
Together, let’s make a commitment to lead a fulfilling life.

第二节 读后续写(满分25分)
47. 阅读下面短文,根据所给情节进行续写,使之构成一个完整的故事。
I sat at the breakfast table with my four-year-old son, Matthew, trying to ignore the ache in my stomach. “Mama, want to play?” “Not today, baby.” I shook my head. These days I could barely get out of bed. I was still recovering from an operation. I hoped for strength and happiness, but the future seemed so hopeless.
Suddenly, Matthew jumped up from his spot on the kitchen floor. “Bird!” he shouted, rushing to our courtyard. Sure enough, there was a white dove seated in a rubber tree (橡胶树). It sat there for a few moments, and then flew away. Strange, I’d never seen one in our neighborhood before.
When I dragged myself to the kitchen the next morning, the dove was back. This time it was with a mate carrying sticks. “Look Matthew,” I said, pointing to the tree. “They’re going to make a nest.” The doves flew in and out of the courtyard all week, building on top of the rubber tree.
Matthew could hardly contain his excitement. Every morning, he’d run into the kitchen and take his spot by the sliding glass door (滑动玻璃门), talking to the birds while they worked. His happiness was influential. As much as I was sad, I couldn’t help but look forward to the doves’ visits too.
Then it all went wrong. The courtyard was a safe enough spot for a nest, but the rubber tree’s broad, thin leaves were far from stable. One night, a strong wind blew, throwing the doves’ nest to the ground. I heard the twigs (细枝) break apart.
I surveyed the damage. Nothing good ever lasted. I wouldn’t blame the doves if they never came back. But they returned. And they paid no attention to the pile of sticks that had once been their nest. They started again from the beginning. Again, though, the wind destroyed all their hard work. The next day, and the next, they started again, as if nothing had happened.
注意:
1.续写词数应为100左右;
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Paragraph 1:
I knew I had to do something.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Paragraph 2:
“It works! The birds are back!” Matthew announced.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】Paragraph 1:
I knew I had to do something. The white dove and its mate had provided brightness during my dark days. Now it was time to help them in return. I cut a piece of hardware cloth, forming it into the shape of a nest and then securing the ends. I then hammered it into the wall next to the rubber tree. After I had finished all the work, there was only an hour before the doves usually made their visit. Matthew and I stood by the sliding glass door, waiting and hoping.
Paragraph 2:
“It works! The birds are back!” Matthew announced. Hearing my son’s excited voice, which was as clear as a bell, I looked up. There they were-swooping and circling near the nest, trying to add some twigs to their new home. A few weeks later, three babies broke free from their shells. “Chirp, chirp,” Matthew sang. I held him in my arms and kissed him, enjoying the happiness of the moment. Looking at their flittering shadows and hearing them chirp, I felt the dim grayness within my heart disappeared, replaced by the strength of life.
【解析】
【导语】本文以故事发展顺序为线索展开,讲述了作者的儿子Matthew每天都看到一些鸽子来到自己家的院子里,作者和儿子注意到鸽子要在橡胶树上筑巢。一天夜里,刮起了一阵大风,把筑在树上的鸽巢掀到地上。作者以为鸽子们再也不回来,但它们又回来了,并且又在树上筑巢。尽管大风又一次摧毁了它们所有的辛勤工作,但是它们继续努力。
【详解】1.段落续写:
①由第一段首句内容“我知道我必须做点什么。”可知,第一段可描写作者如何帮助鸽子们,并且等待鸽子们的到来。
②由第二段首句内容“起作用了!鸟儿又回来了!’马修宣布。”可知,第二段可描写鸽子们回来后的情况。鸽子筑巢给新家添加树枝、孵蛋。这让作者意识到生活充满了无法想象的奇迹和惊喜。
2.续写线索:作者决定帮助鸽子——剪硬布,做成鸟巢的形状,然后把两端固定好——满怀希望地等待——鸽子回来发现新巢——小鸽子孵出——作者感到生活充满奇迹和惊喜
3.词汇激活行为类
①帮助:help /do sb. a favor/give sb. a hand
②完成:complete/finish/accomplish
③提供:provide / offer/supply
情绪类
①兴奋的:excited/thrilled
②开心:happiness/delight
【点睛】[高分句型1]I cut a piece of hardware cloth, forming it into the shape of a nest and then securing the ends.(运用了现在分词作状语)
[高分句型2]After I had finished all the work, there was only an hour before the doves usually made their visit.(运用了after和before引导的时间状语从句)

In all the time I’ve spent in China, I’ve had my share of emotional crises. I can’t remember which one it was in particular, but I do remember how my adopted “aunt” Li once took care of me, settling me in an armchair in her Chengdu apartment, bringing me a cup of green tea, peeling and cutting fruit for me, chatting about unrelated matters as she prepared one of her wonderful Sichuanese suppers. Like many Chinese people, particularly those of the older generation, she didn’t show her love for me by hugging or requesting emotional outpourings, but through food and over-concern.
It took me a while to become used to this way of expressing affection. At first I found it bossy and bossy: “Have some porridge! Drink some soup! Put on some more clothes!” But over time I came to understand what it meant. I can always tell, now, when someone Chinese is becoming fond of me because they start to become over-worried about my physical needs, urging me to eat or drink, to wrap up warm, to rest. When serious-faced chef barks at me to have some more baozi for breakfast or Li presses me to have another mouthful of her red-braised pork, I know they are offering me the delicious equivalent of a hug.
Food in China can mean many things. It is also art and craft and magic. It is the slices of fish that fall like snow from the knife of the chef, the slivers of meat that dance in the shimmering heat of the wok (炒菜锅), the grains of millet or rice that swell in the steamer. It is the employment of armies of microorganisms in the clay vat of jiang (酱菜缸) or the wine jar, the creating of a hundred flavors in a tiny kitchen, the transformation of natural raw materials into numerous forms. It is finding ways to generate delight in everything from a duck’s tongue to the peel of an orange. It is one of the supreme expressions of human wit and creativity.
Above all, it is what connects us and makes us human.
4. Why does the writer mention her mental distress at the beginning?
A. To introduce how Chinese express their love. B. To compare the difference in two cultures.
C. To highlight how fragile the writer used to be. D. To remind readers of the writer’s homesickness.
5. What did the author think of “aunt” Li’s way of expressing love at first?
A. Demanding and cruel. B. Impolite and bitter.
C. Brave and direct. D. Abrupt and simple.
6. How does the writer develop paragraph 3 to further explain her idea?
A. By making comparison. B. By analyzing cause and effect.
C. By offering more examples. D. By classifying cooking methods.
7. What message does the author intend to convey through the text?
A. Every region has its own specialty. B. When in Rome, do as the Romans do.
C. Food is culture, and culture is food. D. The proof of the pudding is in the eating.
C
Think “art”. What comes to your mind? Is it Greek or Roman sculptures in the Louvre, or Chinese paintings in the Palace Museum? Or maybe, just maybe, it’s a dancing pattern of lights?
The artworks by American artist Janet Echelman look like colourful floating clouds when they are lit up at night. Visitors to one of her artworks in Vancouver could not only enjoy looking at it, they could also interact with it-literally. They did this by using their phones to change its colours and patterns. Exhibits such as these are certainly new and exciting, but are they really art?
Whatever your opinion, people have been expressing their thoughts and ideas through art for thousands of years. To do this, they have used a variety of tools and technologies. Yet Michelangelo and others have been labelled (定义) as “artists”, but not “technicians”. This means that art and technology, have always been seen as two very separate (不同的) things.
Today, however, technological advances have led to a combination of art and technology. As a result, the art world is changing greatly. Now art is more accessible to us than ever before. Take for example one of China’s most famous paintings from the Song Dynasty, Along the River During the Qingming Festival. As this artwork is rarely on display, people have sometimes queued up to six hours for a chance to see it. Once in front of the painting, they only have limited time to spend taking in its five metres of scenes along the Bian River in Bianjing. Thanks to technology however, millions more people have been able to experience a digital version of this painting. Three-dimensional (3D) animation means that viewers can see the characters move around and interact with their surroundings. They can also watch as the different scenes change from daylight into nighttime.
The art-tech combination (结合) is also changing our concepts of “art” and the “artist”. Not only can we interact with art but also take part in its creation. With new technological tools at our fingertips, more and more people are exploring their creative sides. The result has been exciting new art forms, such as digital paintings and videos.
However, where technology will take art next is anyone’s guess. But one thing is for sure—with so many artists exploring new possibilities, we can definitely expect the unexpected.

The human tendency to gravitate towards people that are similar to them starts early. In school-age children, the behavior called homophily, or “love of the same” often has to do with how others dress or act. Adults tend to form groups based on professions or personalities. However, forming cliques (小集团) and shutting out those that are “different” is not just a human characteristic. South Africa’ s Cape baboons (大狒狒) show similar tendencies too.
A team of researchers followed the same two troops of baboons for several months. What they noticed was that like humans, baboons rarely left their original groups. To prove if their observations were correct, the researchers conducted an experiment.
They began by placing some foods that the baboons had never seen before on the edge of paths the animals frequently crossed. The researchers recorded the time it took a baboon to get close enough to examine the new foods and the time for ones that had the courage to taste them. Sure enough, the most curious and daring baboons all belonged to the same group. What surprised the scientists was that the monkeys with similar personalities hung out together, regardless of whether they were male or female.
The researchers say this behavior is not a good sign for the animals, because the daring and curious baboons are also good problem solvers. The scientists are afraid that if the baboons share new problem-solving skills with only their group, it leaves the rest of the species vulnerable (易受伤害的) to any environmental changes or enemies.
Unfortunately baboons aren’t the only animals that form cliques. In another study, the scientists divided 80 fish into two groups. After about three weeks, the fish were re-arranged into smaller groups of ten. The researchers observed that many of the fish that had spent time together in the original two groups seemed to seek each other out. What was even more interesting is that once they re-grouped, they were able to find the hidden food much faster. This led the researchers to think that like humans, the fish tended to share their secrets with their best “friend”.
12. What can be used to replace the underlined word “gravitate” in paragraph 1?
A. Lose respect. B. Feel attracted. C. Move oppositely. D. Behave naturally.
13. What did the experiment on baboons show?
A. Baboons associate with similar others.
B. Male baboons tend to be in the same group.
C. Cautious baboons are good at finding new foods.
D. Female baboons are usually braver than male baboons.
14. What might the researchers worry about?
A. Baboons tend to share skills among other groups. B. Baboons may be reduced in numbers.
C. Baboons are suffering from a lack of foods. D. Baboons have difficulty in solving problems.
15. Why is the experiment on fish mentioned?
A. To show they are different from baboons. B. To introduce human-like behavior in fish.
C. To prove other animals form groups as well. D. To explain how they get on with each other.

47. 阅读下面短文,根据所给情节进行续写,使之构成一个完整的故事。
I sat at the breakfast table with my four-year-old son, Matthew, trying to ignore the ache in my stomach. “Mama, want to play?” “Not today, baby.” I shook my head. These days I could barely get out of bed. I was still recovering from an operation. I hoped for strength and happiness, but the future seemed so hopeless.
Suddenly, Matthew jumped up from his spot on the kitchen floor. “Bird!” he shouted, rushing to our courtyard. Sure enough, there was a white dove seated in a rubber tree (橡胶树). It sat there for a few moments, and then flew away. Strange, I’d never seen one in our neighborhood before.
When I dragged myself to the kitchen the next morning, the dove was back. This time it was with a mate carrying sticks. “Look Matthew,” I said, pointing to the tree. “They’re going to make a nest.” The doves flew in and out of the courtyard all week, building on top of the rubber tree.
Matthew could hardly contain his excitement. Every morning, he’d run into the kitchen and take his spot by the sliding glass door (滑动玻璃门), talking to the birds while they worked. His happiness was influential. As much as I was sad, I couldn’t help but look forward to the doves’ visits too.
Then it all went wrong. The courtyard was a safe enough spot for a nest, but the rubber tree’s broad, thin leaves were far from stable. One night, a strong wind blew, throwing the doves’ nest to the ground. I heard the twigs (细枝) break apart.
I surveyed the damage. Nothing good ever lasted. I wouldn’t blame the doves if they never came back. But they returned. And they paid no attention to the pile of sticks that had once been their nest. They started again from the beginning. Again though, the wind destroyed all their hard work. The next day, and the next, they started again, as if nothing had happened.
注意:
1.续写词数应为100左右;

I knew I had to do something.
