Which of the following is NOT mentioned in The Classic of Tea? A. Growing tea. B. Selling tea. C. Making tea. D. Drinking tea. 22. When did the government do tea business with other countries? A. In the Zhou Dynasty. B. In the Tang Dynasty. C. In the Song Dynasty. D. In the Ming and Qing Dynasties. 23. In which part of a magazine can we read the article? A. Science. B. Culture. C. Sports. D. Food. B Have you ever wondered why we say maidongxi (买东西) instead of mainánbei, shangcesuo (上厕所) instead of xiacesuo, and yijianxiangzuo (意见相左) instead of yijianxiangyou? Many Chinese words have directions in them, and there is lots of history and culture hidden behind. East or West When going shopping, Chinese people say maidongxi instead of mainanbei. A theory says that in the Tang Dynasty, there were two popular markets in Chang’an, the national capital at the time. One was called the East Market, and the other was called the West Market. When shopping, people usually went to the East Market first, and then went to the West Market. As time went by, people started to describe shopping as maidongxi. Up or down We use shangcesuo to mean “go to the bathroom” and xiachufang to mean “go to the kitchen”. Why? In ancient times, houses were laid out(布局) in a certain way. The gate of the house would face south, with the bathroom in the northeastern part of the house and the kitchen in the southeastern part. On maps, north is usually at the top while south is at the bottom. In Chinese, we talk about the north as Shang and the south as xia. So people would say they’re going up to the bathroom and down to the kitchen. Ancient Chinese not only used shang and xia to refer to (指代) directions but also social positions. For example, people used huangshang to refer to the emperor and dianxia to refer to princes who had a lower position than the emperor. Left or right Most people today are right-handed. They feel uncomfortable if they try to use their left hand to write or use chopsticks. This was true in old times as well. So in ancient China, “left” was related to (与……有关联) being different, such as in yijianxiangzuo. If people don’t accept common beliefs (信念), we still say they are following ______. When shaking hands, it’s important to know which hand to use. In most cultures, the right hand is generally used for a handshake. For example, in some countries, such as India and Nepal, the left hand is considered unclean. However, if you are in a culture where the left hand is used, you’d better do as the locals do. “Left” and “right” also have something to do with people’s social position. For a long time in ancient China, “right” stood for higher position than “left”. For example, the character “佑”, developed from “右”, means a person in a higher position would protect someone in a lower position. 24. Which of the following Chinese expressions can be used as an example in “Where to buy things”? A. 东市买骏马，西市买鞍鞯 B. 东边日出西边雨 C. 青山横北郭，白水绕东城 D. 任尔东西南北风 25. According to the passage, where was the bathroom located in ancient Chinese houses? A. Southeastern part B. Northeastern part C. Southwestern part D. Northwestern part 26. Which of the following can be best put in the blanket “______” in the article? A. qishangmanxia B. shangcuanxiatiao C pangmenzuodao D. zuosiyouxiang 27. What’s the best title of the article? A. Directions in Chinese Language and Culture B. The History of Chinese Markets C. Hand Usage in Different Cultures D. Ancient Chinese House Layout C Like many other grandmothers Daisy likes cooking delicious meals for her family, chatting with her friends, and she isn’t very good with technology. Or, at least, that’s what she might tell people on the phone. Daisy also describes herself as “your most terrible dream”. But don’t worry; she’s not talking to you—she’s talking to phone scammers (诈骗者). That’s because Daisy is actually an AI chatbot. She was created by a UK phone company to speak to scammers on the phone and make them believe they’re talking to a real person. Older people are easily cheated by scammers. In July 2024, a UK study found that about 67% of people over 75 were victims (受害者) of at least one scam in the six months before the study—with nearly 75% of those being phone scams. Meet Daisy, who has been trained to have conversations with phone scammers, and waste their time. The company worked with Jim Browning, who has spent years acting like to be naive victim to waste scammers’ time. And that’s the whole point—Daisy can’t stop scammers, but she can slow them down. “Whenever she’s on the phone with a scammer, your parents, your grandparents, your relatives, are not being cheated,” Browning said. The company says, “Daisy is already wasting hundreds and hundreds of hours of scammers’ time, and has shared real life conversations the chatbot has had with them.” Some conversations last nearly an hour. She talks about her cat, Fluffy, and people in her family. In some conversations, she even gives the scammers what they want—bank information. But of course, they’re not real, “Daisy is also there to remind you that the person you’re speaking to on the phone might not always be who he says he is,” the company adds. 28. What can we know about Daisy? A. She is good at cooking. B. She belongs to a kind of robot. C. She enjoys talking with her family. D. She works in a computer company in the UK. 29. How does the writer explain the problem of cheating in Para 2? A. By using pictures. B. By giving an example. C. By telling a story. D. By listing numbers. 30. What does the underlined word “naive” probably mean? A. simple B. clever C. funny D. hard-working 31. What is the passage mainly about? A. The rise of scammers in the UK. B. A creative way to slow scammers down. C. The reason why the old are easy to be cheated. D. The development of AI technology in the world. D As the days went by, Wilbur grew and grew. He ate three big meals a day. He spent long hours lying on his side, half asleep, dreaming pleasant dreams. He enjoyed good health and he put on a lot of weight. One afternoon, the oldest sheep walked into the barn (畜棚) and stopped to pay a call on Wilbur. “Hello!” she said. “Seems to me you’re putting on weight.” “Yes, I guess I am,” replied Wilbur. “At my age it’s a good idea to keep growing.” “I really don’t agree with you,” said the old sheep, “You know why they’re fattening you up, don’t you?” “No,” said Wilbur. “Well, I don’t like to spread bad news,” said the sheep, “but they’re fattening you up because they’re going to kill you, that’s why.” “Kill you. Turn you into smoked bacon (熏猪肉) and ham,” continued the old sheep. “Almost all young pigs get killed by the farmers as soon as the cold weather set in. Everyone is on the list--Lurvy, Zuckerman, even John Arable.” “Stop!” screamed Wilbur. “I don’t want to die! Save me, somebody! Save me!” “Be quiet, Wilbur!” said Charlotte, the spider, who was the best friend of Wilbur. “I can’t be quiet,” screamed Wilbur, jumping up and down. “I don’t want to be killed. I don’t want to die. Is it true what the old sheep says, Charlotte? Is it true they are going to kill me when the cold weather comes? Will I die?” “Well,” said the spider, thought for a while at her web, “the old sheep has seen many poor pigs killed. If she says they plan to kill you, I’m sure it’s true.” “I don’t want to die,” he cried sadly, throwing himself to the ground, “I want to stay alive, right here in my comfortable barn with all my friends. I want to breathe the beautiful air and lie in the beautiful sun.” “You shall not die,” said Charlotte, briskly (轻快地). “What? Really?” cried Wilbur. “Who’s going to save me?” “I am,” said Charlotte. “How?” asked Wilbur. “That remains to be seen.” Charlotte smiled. (Excerpts from Charlotte’s Web) 32. Who thought that putting on weight meant being killed? A. Wilbur B. Lurvy. C. The old sheep. D. Charlotte. 33. What do the underlined sentences show? A. Wilbur didn’t know what the old sheep meant.

There is an important reason for this. Sometimes plants can’t grow in a country because of bad weather or disease so farmers need new seeds. You can keep seeds in a “seed vault”. It’s a place at a special temperature. The seeds don’t grow, but they can live for a long time. Norway has the biggest seed vault in the world — the Svalbard Global Seed Vault and it has seeds from a lot of different countries. The vault is on the island of Spitsbergen. The island is about one thousand kilometers from the North Pole. It’s a very cold place so it’s good for seeds. Above the ground, the doorway is small, but inside, the building is huge. You walk down a long corridor (走廊), which is one hundred and thirty meters inside a mountain. At the end of it, there are three large areas with seeds. There are about half a million kinds of seeds inside the vault. For example, there are kinds of seeds for rice from Asia and Africa, 32 kinds of seeds for potatoes from Ireland and seeds for different tomatoes from the USA. The seed vault has space for a lot more seeds. You can put about 2.2 billion seeds inside. The seeds can live here for thousands of years because of the cold temperature of-18℃. So in the future, humans can grow any seed they want. In other words, the seed vault is the difference between life and death. 回答下面5个问题，每题答案不超过6个词。 61.

Many Chinese words have directions in them, and there is lots of history and culture hidden behind. East or West When going shopping, Chinese people say maidongxi instead of mainanbei. A theory says that in the Tang Dynasty, there were two popular markets in Chang’an, the national capital at the time. One was called the East Market, and the other was called the West Market. When shopping, people usually went to the East Market first, and then went to the West Market. As time went by, people started to describe shopping as maidongxi. Up or down We use shangcesuo to mean “go to the bathroom” and xiachufang to mean “go to the kitchen”. Why? In ancient times, houses were laid out(布局) in a certain way. The gate of the house would face south, with the bathroom in the northeastern part of the house and the kitchen in the southeastern part. On maps, north is usually at the top while south is at the bottom. In Chinese, we talk about the north as Shang and the south as xia. So people would say they’re going up to the bathroom and down to the kitchen. Ancient Chinese not only used shang and xia to refer to (指代) directions but also social positions. For example, people used huangshang to refer to the emperor and dianxia to refer to princes who had a lower position than the emperor. Left or right Most people today are right-handed. They feel uncomfortable if they try to use their left hand to write or use chopsticks. This was true in old times as well. So in ancient China, “left” was related to (与……有关联) being different, such as in yijianxiangzuo. If people don’t accept common beliefs (信念), we still say they are following ______. When shaking hands, it’s important to know which hand to use. In most cultures, the right hand is generally used for a handshake. For example, in some countries, such as India and Nepal, the left hand is considered unclean. However, if you are in a culture where the left hand is used, you’d better do as the locals do. “Left” and “right” also have something to do with people’s social position. For a long time in ancient China, “right” stood for higher position than “left”. For example, the character “佑”, developed from “右”, means a person in a higher position would protect someone in a lower position. 24. Which of the following Chinese expressions can be used as an example in “Where to buy things”? A. 东市买骏马，西市买鞍鞯 B. 东边日出西边雨 C. 青山横北郭，白水绕东城 D. 任尔东西南北风 25. According to the passage, where was the bathroom located in ancient Chinese houses? A. Southeastern part B. Northeastern part C. Southwestern part D. Northwestern part 26. Which of the following can be best put in the blanket “______” in the article? A. qishangmanxia B. shangcuanxiatiao C. pangmenzuodao D. zuosiyouxiang 27. What’s the best title of the article? A. Directions in Chinese Language and Culture B. The History of Chinese Markets C. Hand Usage in Different Cultures D. Ancient Chinese House Layout 【答案】24. A 25. B 26. C 27. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了汉语中一些包含方向词的词汇背后的历史和文化内涵，如“买东西”、“上厕所”以及“意见相左”等，并解释了这些词汇的由来和与古代中国社会文化的关系。 【24题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第二段“When going shopping, Chinese people say maidongxi instead of mainanbei...people usually went to the East Market first, and then went to the West Market. As time went by, people started to describe shopping as maidongxi.”可知，在描述购物时，中国人用“买东西”而不是“买南北”，这与古代长安的东市和西市有关。因此，在“Where to buy things”这一主题下，应选择与购物地点相关的选项。A选项“东市买骏马，西市买鞍鞯”直接提到了东市和西市，与购物地点相关，符合题意。故选A。 【25题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第三段“In ancient times, houses were laid out in a certain way...with the bathroom in the northeastern part of the house”可知，在古代中国，浴室通常位于房子的东北部。故选B。 【26题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第五段“So in ancient China, ‘left’ was related to being different, such as in yijianxiangzuo. If people don’t accept common beliefs, we still say they are following”可知，在古代中国，“左”与不同或不合常规有关联，如“意见相左”。如果人们不接受普遍的信念，我们仍然会说他们是在遵循某种不合常规的做法。“pangmenzuodao”意为“旁门左道”，原指不正派的宗教派别，现泛指不正派的东西，与不合常规或不同有关联，符合题意。故选C。 【27题详解】 最佳标题题。根据文章第一段“Many Chinese words have directions in them, and there is lots of history and culture hidden behind.”以及全文内容可知，本文主要介绍了汉语中一些包含方向词的词汇背后的历史和文化内涵。因此，最佳标题应体现这一主题。A选项“Directions in Chinese Language and Culture”意为“汉语语言和文化中的方向”，直接点明了文章的主题，符合题意。故选A。 C Like many other grandmothers, Daisy likes cooking delicious meals for her family, chatting with her friends, and she isn’t very good with technology. Or, at least, that’s what she might tell people on the phone. Daisy also describes herself as “your most terrible dream”. But don’t worry; she’s not talking to you—she’s talking to phone scammers (诈骗者). That’s because Daisy is actually an AI chatbot. She was created by a UK phone company to speak to scammers on the phone and make them believe they’re talking to a real person. Older people are easily cheated by scammers. In July 2024, a UK study found that about 67% of people over 75 were victims (受害者) of at least one scam in the six months before the study—with nearly 75% of those being phone scams. Meet Daisy, who has been trained to have conversations with phone scammers, and waste their time. The company worked with Jim Browning, who has spent years acting like to be naive victim to waste scammers’ time. And that’s the whole point—Daisy can’t stop scammers, but she can slow them down. “Whenever she’s on the phone with a scammer, your parents, your grandparents, your relatives, are not being cheated,” Browning said. The company says, “Daisy is already wasting hundreds and hundreds of hours of scammers’ time, and has shared real life conversations the chatbot has had with them.” Some conversations last nearly an hour. She talks about her cat, Fluffy, and people in her family. In some conversations, she even gives the scammers what they want—bank information. But of course, they’re not real, “Daisy is also there to remind you that the person you’re speaking to on the phone might not always be who he says he is,” the company adds. 28. What can we know about Daisy? A. She is good at cooking. B. She belongs to a kind of robot. C. She enjoys talking with her family. D. She works in a computer company in the UK. 29. How does the writer explain the problem of cheating in Para 2? A. By using pictures. B. By giving an example. C. By telling a story. D. By listing numbers. 30. What does the underlined word “naive” probably mean? A. simple B. clever C. funny D. hard-working 31. What is the passage mainly about? A. The rise of scammers in the UK. B. A creative way to slow scammers down. C. The reason why the old are easy to be cheated. D. The development of AI technology in the world. 【答案】28. B 29. D 30. A 31. B 【解析】 【导语】本文介绍了一个名为Daisy的AI聊天机器人，由英国电话公司开发，专门与电话诈骗者周旋，通过假装成易受骗的老人来浪费诈骗者的时间，从而保护真实用户免受诈骗。文章还提到老年人容易成为诈骗目标，并说明Daisy的工作原理和效果。 【28题详解】 细节理解题。根据“That’s because Daisy is actually an AI chatbot.”可知，黛西实际上是一个人工智能聊天机器人。故选B。 【29题详解】 推理判断题。根据“In July 2024, a UK study found that about 67% of people over 75 were victims of at least one scam in the six months before the study—with nearly 75% of those being phone scams.”可知，作者使用了“67%”和“75%”这些数字来说明老年人容易被诈骗的问题，所以是通过列举数字的方式，故选D。 【30题详解】 词句猜测题。根据“The company worked with Jim Browning, who has spent years acting like to be naive victim to waste scammers’ time.”可知，该公司与吉姆·布朗宁合作，他多年来一直装作是天真的受害者来浪费诈骗者的时间，这里是说装作容易受骗的人，“naive”在这里的意思应该是“单纯的，天真的”，与选项A“simple“”意为“简单的、单纯的”意思相近。故选A。 【31题详解】 主旨大意题。根据文中内容可知，文章主要介绍了人工智能聊天机器人黛西，她被创造出来与电话诈骗者交谈，虽然不能阻止诈骗者，但能减缓他们的诈骗速度。选项B“一种减缓诈骗者速度的创造性方法”符合文章主旨。故选B。 D As the days went by, Wilbur grew and grew. He ate three big meals a day. He spent long hours lying on his side, half asleep, dreaming pleasant dreams. He enjoyed good health and he put on a lot of weight. One afternoon, the oldest sheep walked into the barn (畜棚) and stopped to pay a call on Wilbur. “Hello!” she said. “Seems to me you’re putting on weight.” “Yes, I guess I am,” replied Wilbur. “At my age it’s a good idea to keep growing.” “I really don’t agree with you,” said the old sheep, “You know why they’re fattening you up, don’t you?” “No,” said Wilbur. “Well, I don’t like to spread bad news,” said the sheep, “but they’re fattening you up because they’re going to kill you, that’s why.” “Kill you. Turn you into smoked bacon (熏猪肉) and ham,” continued the old sheep. “Almost all young pigs get killed by the farmers as soon as the cold weather set in. Everyone is on the list--Lurvy, Zuckerman, even John Arable.” “Stop!” screamed Wilbur. “I don’t want to die! Save me, somebody! Save me!” “Be quiet, Wilbur!” said Charlotte, the spider, who was the best friend of Wilbur. “I can’t be quiet,” screamed Wilbur, jumping up and down. “I don’t want to be killed. I don’t want to die. Is it true what the old sheep says, Charlotte? Is it true they are going to kill me when the cold weather comes? Will I die?” “Well,” said the spider, thought for a while at her web, “the old sheep has seen many poor pigs killed. If she says they plan to kill you, I’m sure it’s true.” “I don’t want to die,” he cried sadly, throwing himself to the ground, “I want to stay alive, right here in my comfortable barn with all my friends. I want to breathe the beautiful air and lie in the beautiful sun.” “You shall not die,” said Charlotte, briskly (轻快地). “What? Really?” cried Wilbur. “Who’s going to save me?” “I am,” said Charlotte. “How?” asked Wilbur. “That remains to be seen.” Charlotte smiled. (Excerpts from Charlotte’s Web) 32. Who thought that putting on weight meant being killed? A. Wilbur B. Lurvy. C. The old sheep. D. Charlotte. 33. What do the underlined sentences show? A. Wilbur didn’t know what the old sheep meant. B. Wilbur was afraid to be killed by the farmers. C. Wilbur didn’t want to listen to the old sheep. D. Wilbur didn’t believe what the old sheep said. 34. How did Wilbur’s feelings change in the text? A. Hopeful→happy→surprised→sad. B. Happy→sad→hopeful→surprised. C. Surprised→happy→sad→hopeful. D. Happy→surprised→sad→hopeful. 35. What might happen next according to the story? A. Wilbur was surely saved by the old sheep. B. Wilbur was killed by farmers in winter. C. Charlotte saved Wilbur and he remained alive. D. Farmers were angry with Charlotte and killed her. 【答案】32. C 33. B 34. D 35. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇故事性短文，节选自《夏洛的网》。文章通过小猪威尔伯与老羊和蜘蛛夏洛的对话，展现了威尔伯得知自己可能被宰杀后的恐惧以及夏洛的安慰和承诺，体现了友情和希望的主题。 【32题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章中“‘Well, I don’t like to spread bad news,’ said the sheep, ‘but they’re fattening you up because they’re going to kill you, that’s why.’”可知，是老羊认为增重意味着会被杀掉。故选C。 【33题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章中“‘Stop!’ screamed Wilbur. ‘I don’t want to die! Save me, somebody! Save me!’”以及后续Wilbur的哭喊“‘I don’t want to be killed. I don’t want to die...’”可以推断，Wilbur非常害怕被农民杀掉。故选B。 【34题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章内容，Wilbur一开始享受着美好的生活，感到快乐（“He enjoyed good health and he put on a lot of weight.”）；当老羊告诉他增重意味着会被杀掉时，他感到惊讶（“‘No,’ said Wilbur.”表示他之前并不知道）；接着他感到悲伤，因为不想死（“‘I don’t want to die!’ screamed Wilbur.”）；最后，当Charlotte说会救他时，他又燃起了希望（“‘You shall not die,’ said Charlotte, briskly.”）。因此，Wilbur的感情变化是快乐→惊讶→悲伤→希望。故选D。 35题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章最后“‘I am,’ said Charlotte.”以及“‘That remains to be seen.’ Charlotte smiled.”可以推断，Charlotte承诺会救Wilbur，并且她看起来很有信心。因此，接下来可能发生的是Charlotte救了Wilbur，使他得以存活。故选C。 (二)阅读下面短文，从所给的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，使短文通顺，结构完整，其中有一项是多余选项。 Bringing a pet into a family with small children around is not a decision to make easily.

There is an important reason for this. Sometimes plants can’t grow in a country because of bad weather or disease, so farmers need new seeds. You can keep seeds in a “seed vault”. It’s a place at a special temperature. The seeds don’t grow, but they can live for a long time. Norway has the biggest seed vault in the world — the Svalbard Global Seed Vault and it has seeds from a lot of different countries. The vault is on the island of Spitsbergen. The island is about one thousand kilometers from the North Pole. It’s a very cold place so it’s good for seeds. Above the ground, the doorway is small, but inside, the building is huge. You walk down a long corridor (走廊), which is one hundred and thirty meters inside a mountain. At the end of it, there are three large areas with seeds. There are about half a million kinds of seeds inside the vault. For example, there are kinds of seeds for rice from Asia and Africa, 32 kinds of seeds for potatoes from Ireland and seeds for different tomatoes from the USA. The seed vault has space for a lot more seeds. You can put about 2.2 billion seeds inside. The seeds can live here for thousands of years because of the cold temperature of-18℃. So in the future, humans can grow any seed they want. In other words, the seed vault is the difference between life and death. 回答下面5个问题，每题答案不超过6个词。 61.
