Terri Bolton is a dab hand when it comes to DIY (do it yourself). Skilled at putting up shelves and piecing together furniture, she never pays someone else to do a job she can do herself.
She credits these skills to her late grandfather and builder Derck Lloyd. From the age of six, Terri, now 26, accompanied Derck to work during her school holidays. A day’s work was rewarded with £5 in pocket money. She says: “I’m sure I wasn’t much of a help to start with, painting the rooms and putting down the flooring throughout the house. It took weeks and it was backbreaking work, but I know he was proud of my skills.”
Terri, who now rents a house with friends in Wandsworth, South West London, says DIY also saves her from losing any deposit (存款) when a tenancy (租期) comes to an end. She adds: “I’ve moved house many times and I always like to personalise my room and put up pictures. So, it’s been useful to know how to cover up holes and repaint a room to avoid any charges when I’ve moved out.”
With millions of people likely to take on DIY projects over that coming weeks, new research shows that more than half of people are planning to make the most of the long, warm summer days to get jobs done. The average spend per project will be around £823. Two thirds of people aim to improve their comfort while at home. Two fifths wish to increase the value of their house. Though DIY has traditionally been seen as male hobby, the research shows it is women now leading the charge.
4. Which is closest in meaning to “a dab hand” in paragraph 1?
A An artist. B. A winner C. An expert D. A pioneer.
5. Why did Terri’s grandfather give her £5 a day?
A. For a birthday gift. B. To encourage her to take up a hobby.
C. To support her DIY projects. D. As a treat for her work.
6. How did Terri avoid losing the deposit on the house she rented?
A. By making it look like before. B. By making furniture herself.
C. By sharing the rent with a roommate. D. By ending the rental agreement.
7. What trend in DIY does the research show?
A. It is becoming more costly. B. It is gaining popularity among females.
C. It is turning into a seasonal industry. D. It is getting more time-consuming.
C
A dog can be a person’s best friend, or so the theory goes. But that relationship can be tested when a dog begins barking at an empty comer of a room, at a door, or anywhere where there doesn’t appear to be any activity at all taking place. Is the dog hallucinating? Is it communicating with ET? Or does it simply want to drive its owner crazy?
According to the American Kennel Club, the most common explanation for dogs’ barking without reasons is that it’s not really unprompted at all. Dogs are, obviously, equipped with superior hearing, including the ability to detect sounds that are higher in pitch. It is said a dog could be reacting to a noise that a person wouldn’t be able to hear. If a dog barks seemingly for no apparent reason at night, it might be because the noise nearby is lessened and some barking of other dogs become more clearly. Because dogs are territorial, one dog barking can turn into many others to guard themselves.
Dogs are also able to see better in the dark than humans thanks to their ability to get more light into their retinas (视网膜). If a dog is reacting to what looks to you like an empty backyard at night, it’s possible that something has caught their attention, be it a wild animal, a leaf, or a stranger.
That’s not to say that dogs only bark because of their cute senses. Some dogs might bark out of boredom in which case more exercise or play time is probably needed. They might also be trying to get their owner’s attention.
The AKC recommends that owners avoid scolding their dogs for barking, since they’re simply trying to remain alert, instead, you can try calming the dog to let them know you’re aware of their concern. If they tend to bark while gazing out a window, you can also try to pull the curtains. If you suspect the source is an audio cue, some white noise, like a television or radio can help.
Less often, chronic barking might be a sign of cognitive issues. If barking is persistent and no fugitive is hiding out in your bushes, then you might consider a trip to the vet.
8. According to the passage, which factors won’t make dogs barking at nothing?
A. Its madness. B. Its visual sense. C. Its acute hearing. D. Its boredom.
9. What can we learn from Paragraph 2?
A. A dog barks in order to make friends with other dogs.
B. The surrounding noise being lessened will make a dog frightened.
C. A dog can react to a noise as acutely as a person.
D. A dog always has the awareness of its domain.
10. What should the owner do with the dog’s barking from the AKC’s recommendation?
A. Leaving it alone. B. Scolding it seriously.
C. Comforting it. D. Playing some soft music.
11. This passage is probably taken from?
A. an experiment report B. a mental discovery
C. a school textbook D. a science fiction
D
An economist, Adam Smith, famously wrote that “it is not from the benevolence (慈善) of the butcher, the brewer or the baker, that we expect our dinner, but from their regard to their own self-interest.” Like Smith, many economists today believe one’s self-interest is what drives competition and growth in market economies. Yet, in an increasingly interconnected society, it is even more crucial to have cooperative skills. Thus we should encourage cooperation to better prepare children for the future.
Firstly, cooperation is an especially prized soft skill in the present age. As a study proves, soft skills such as good communication and empathy (共情) indicate outstanding employees as compared to technical skills or knowledge. In contrast, extremely competitive and individualistic behavior may damage social relations in the community of co-workers. Even the most competent employee may fail to pursue his goals effectively without others’ help.
Moreover, encouraging cooperation boost children’s self-respect that better prepares them for the competitive world. Many modern societies are consumed by a crazy drive for success and the pressure to perform has infiltrated both classrooms and offices, causing higher rates of anxiety and depression among people. Teamwork can help an individual realize each has his or her own unique abilities and that another person’s strengths don’t discount his or her talents. Thus, cooperation can confirm children’s self-worth by correcting the insight that winning or paper achievement is the only measure of success.
However, critics may claim adapting to competition should be given priority in education and parenting. To achieve one’s ambitions, one has to actively fight for opportunities and distinguish oneself from others. Nevertheless, since passion can already stimulate children to fulfill their ambitions, the need to encourage competition may be at the end of the day. As much as external competition can drive people to pursue excellence, internal motivation is at least equally or even more essential, and cooperation plays an instrumental role in helping one uncover one’s motivations.
12. What can be inferred from Adam Smith’s words?
A. Our society is increasingly interconnected.
B. Our dinner is made out of the regards to markets.
C Self-interest pushes the development of economies.
D. The butcher, the brewer or the baker is not sympathetic.
13. What does the underlined word “infiltrated ” mean in paragraph 3 probably mean?
A. Brightened. B. Decorated. C. Defended. D. Entered.
14. Which of the following might the author agree with?
A Paper achievement is the only measure of success.
B. One’s ambitions can be achieved through cooperation.
C. Competition is not necessary for people to pursue excellence.
D. Actively fighting for distinguishing oneself should be prioritized.
15. What is the author’s purpose of writing this passage?
A. To introduce the advantages of cooperation.
B. To compare cooperation with competition.
C. To suggest enhancing competitive skills.
D. To advocate teaching children to cooperate.

【11题详解】
推理判断题。由文章第一段“A dog can be a person’s best friend, or so the theory goes. But that relationship can be tested when a dog begins barking at an empty comer of a room, at a door, or anywhere where there doesn’t appear to be any activity at all taking place. Is the dog hallucinating? Is it communicating with ET? Or does it simply want to drive its owner crazy?(理论上,狗可以成为一个人最好的朋友。但当狗开始在房间的空角落、门口或任何看起来根本没有任何活动的地方吠叫时,这种关系就会受到考验。这只狗产生幻觉了吗?它是否与ET通信?还是它只是想把主人逼疯?)”以及后文可知,文章主要分析狗无缘无故吠的原因以及给狗主人处理这种情况的建议,结合选项可知,这篇文章最可能来自于一篇研究发现。故选B项。

An economist, Adam Smith, famously wrote that “it is not from the benevolence (慈善) of the butcher, the brewer or the baker, that we expect our dinner, but from their regard to their own self-interest.” Like Smith, many economists today believe one’s self-interest is what drives competition and growth in market economies. Yet, in an increasingly interconnected society, it is even more crucial to have cooperative skills. Thus we should encourage cooperation to better prepare children for the future.
Firstly, cooperation is an especially prized soft skill in the present age. As a study proves, soft skills such as good communication and empathy (共情) indicate outstanding employees as compared to technical skills or knowledge. In contrast, extremely competitive and individualistic behavior may damage social relations in the community of co-workers. Even the most competent employee may fail to pursue his goals effectively without others’ help.
Moreover, encouraging cooperation boost children’s self-respect that better prepares them for the competitive world. Many modern societies are consumed by a crazy drive for success and the pressure to perform has infiltrated both classrooms and offices, causing higher rates of anxiety and depression among people. Teamwork can help an individual realize each has his or her own unique abilities and that another person’s strengths don’t discount his or her talents. Thus, cooperation can confirm children’s self-worth by correcting the insight that winning or paper achievement is the only measure of success.
However, critics may claim adapting to competition should be given priority in education and parenting. To achieve one’s ambitions, one has to actively fight for opportunities and distinguish oneself from others. Nevertheless, since passion can already stimulate children to fulfill their ambitions, the need to encourage competition may be at the end of the day. As much as external competition can drive people to pursue excellence, internal motivation is at least equally or even more essential, and cooperation plays an instrumental role in helping one uncover one’s motivations.
12. What can be inferred from Adam Smith’s words?
A. Our society is increasingly interconnected.
B. Our dinner is made out of the regards to markets.
C. Self-interest pushes the development of economies.
D. The butcher, the brewer or the baker is not sympathetic.
13. What does the underlined word “infiltrated ” mean in paragraph 3 probably mean?
A. Brightened. B. Decorated. C. Defended. D. Entered.
14. Which of the following might the author agree with?
A. Paper achievement is the only measure of success.
B. One’s ambitions can be achieved through cooperation.
C. Competition is not necessary for people to pursue excellence.
D. Actively fighting for distinguishing oneself should be prioritized.
15. What is the author’s purpose of writing this passage?
A. To introduce the advantages of cooperation.
B. To compare cooperation with competition.
C. To suggest enhancing competitive skills.
D. To advocate teaching children to cooperate.
【答案】12. C 13. D 14. B 15. D
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章从三个方面陈述了合作精神对孩子的重要性,并呼吁父母鼓励他们的孩子学会合作。
【12题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段的“Like Smith, many economists today believe one’s self-interest is what drives competition and growth in market economies.(和史密斯一样,今天的许多经济学家认为,在市场经济中,一个人的自身利益是推动竞争和增长的因素。)”可知,史密斯的那句话“it is not from the benevolence (慈善) of the butcher, the brewer or the baker, that we expect our dinner, but from their regard to their own self-interest.(我们不是从屠夫、酿酒师或面包师的仁慈中期待我们的晚餐,而是从他们对自身利益的考虑中。)”意在说明个人利益推动经济的发展。故选C。
【13题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第三段的“Many modern societies are consumed by a crazy drive for success and the pressure to perform(许多现代社会被对成功的疯狂追求所吞噬,表现的压力)”和“both classrooms and offices, causing higher rates of anxiety and depression among people(教室和办公室,导致人们更容易焦虑和抑郁)”可知划线词所在的句子表示“许多现代社会被对成功的疯狂追求所消耗,表现的压力已经渗透到教室和办公室,导致人们焦虑和抑郁的比例更高。”可知,压力是进入教室和办公室,导致人们焦虑和抑郁的比例更高,划线词infiltrated的意思是“进入”,和entered的意思相近,故选D。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段的“Moreover, encouraging cooperation boost children’s self-respect that better prepares them for the competitive world.(此外,鼓励合作可以提高孩子的自尊,更好地为他们面对竞争的世界做好准备。)”和最后一段的“Nevertheless, since passion can already stimulate children to fulfill their ambitions, the need to encourage competition may be at the end of the day. As much as external competition can drive people to pursue excellence, internal motivation is at least equally or even more essential, and cooperation plays an instrumental role in helping one uncover one’s motivations.(然而,由于热情已经可以刺激孩子实现他们的抱负,鼓励竞争的需要可能是在一天结束。就像外部竞争可以驱使人们追求卓越一样,内部动机至少是同等的,甚至是更重要的,合作在帮助人们发现自己的动机方面发挥着重要作用。)”可知,作者认为信心和雄心可以通过合作来实现。故选B。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。通读全文可知,文章主要说明了培养合作精神对孩子的重要性:是一种非常重要的软技能,能帮助孩子建立信心,有助于孩子实现雄心。结合第一段的“Yet, in an increasingly interconnected society, it is even more crucial to have cooperative skills. Thus we should encourage cooperation to better prepare children for the future.(然而,在一个相互联系日益紧密的社会中,拥有合作技能甚至更加重要。因此,我们应该鼓励合作,以更好地为儿童的未来做好准备。)”可知,作者写这篇文章的目的是呼吁父母鼓励他们的孩子学会合作。故选D。

While travelling alone can be an enlightening experience, it can be incredibly overwhelming to leave home and head into the big wide world with just you and your backpack. ____16____
But what kind of person should we anticipate?
A person with opposite characteristics may increase the enjoyment of your trip’s duration. My best friend and I are far too alike. We love the same food, music and both love to travel.
____17____ We both hate making decisions and are poor with money. This is a recipe for disaster. My travel partner, on the other hand, is the total opposite of me. He loves to plan and budgets are his best friend. This is why we make such a great travel team.
____18____ You will make memories and share experiences that will last a lifetime. However, travelling the world together won’t be sun-kissed days and picture-perfect moments all the time. There will be flight delays, homesickness…even actual sickness. To resolve them quickly and fairly, you two need to be on the same wavelength. Put more simply, it’s important to find a travel buddy who communicates openly.
Although I’ve enjoyed traveling with my partner for over a decade I can admit that friendship fatigue (疲劳) is real. You will long for some alone time eventually as it is tiring spending 24/7 with another human, regardless of how much you love and respect him/ her. ____19____ Make sure you find a travel buddy who understands this.
With a travel companion, not only will you save money but it is beneficial to share travel stories and have a familiar face as you travel into the unknown. ____20____ A travel buddy and personal photographer all in one!

【16题详解】
由上文“While travelling alone can be an enlightening experience, it can be incredibly overwhelming to leave home and head into the big wide world with just you and your backpack. (虽然独自旅行可能是一种有启发性的体验,但只带着自己和背包离开家走进广阔的世界可能会让人不知所措。)”可知,此处指出独自旅行的挑战,结合下文“But what kind of person should we anticipate?(但是我们应该期待什么样的人呢?)”可推知空格处需引出旅行伙伴的重要性,D项“A travel companion might make a world of difference. (一个旅行伙伴可能会带来很大的不同。)”符合语境,通过对比独自旅行的压力,强调伙伴能改变旅行体验,引出下文对“理想旅伴”的讨论。故选D项。
【17题详解】

This is a recipe for disaster. (我们都讨厌做决定,而且不擅长理财。这是灾难的根源。)”可知,尽管兴趣相投,但性格相似导致不适合一起旅行,B项“We are terrible travel companions, nevertheless. (然而,我们是糟糕的旅行伙伴。)”符合语境,nevertheless转折上文“相似点”,引出下文缺点,形成对比。故选B项。
【18题详解】
由下文“To resolve them quickly and fairly, you two need to be on the same wavelength. Put more simply, it’s important to find a travel buddy who communicates openly. (为了快速公平地解决这些问题,你们俩需要达成共识。更简单地说,找到一个能坦诚交流的旅行伙伴很重要。)”可知,此段强调沟通在旅行中的关键作用,E项“A significant key to travelling together is communication. (一起旅行的一个重要关键是沟通。)”符合语境,communication直接对应后文communicates openly,总领段落核心观点。故选E项。
【19题详解】
由上文“You will long for some alone time eventually as it is tiring spending 24/7 with another human, regardless of how much you love and respect him/her. (你最终会渴望一些独处的时间,因为不管你有多爱和尊重他/她,整天和另一个人在一起都很累。)”可知,此处讨论独处时间的必要性,G项“Alone time is healthy and very much critical for your mental well-being. (独处时间是健康的,对你的精神健康非常重要。)”符合语境,alone time复现上文关键词,进一步强调其对心理健康的重要性,引出“找理解这一点的旅伴”的建议。故选G项。
【20题详解】
由下文“A travel buddy and personal photographer all in one! (一个旅行伙伴同时也是私人摄影师!)”可知,此处列举旅伴的额外好处,C项“Also, who else will take those natural photos for you? (此外,还有谁会为你拍那些自然的照片呢?)”符合语境,also承接前文“省钱、分享故事”,通过反问引出“拍照” 这一具体益处,与后文personal photographer形成呼应。故选C项。

56. 另一个例子是万圣节,虽然起源于宗教,万圣节渐渐成了孩子们纵情玩乐的一个节日。(汉译英)
___________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】Another example is Halloween, which slowly became an exciting festival for children, in spite of its religious origins.
【解析】
【详解】考查定语从句、介词短语和句子时态。“另一个例子是万圣节”是主句,可译为“Another example is Halloween”,用一般现在时态描述客观事实 。“虽然起源于宗教,万圣节渐渐成了孩子们纵情玩乐的一个节日”可处理为非限制性定语从句,修饰先行词Halloween,用关系代词which将其代入从句作主语,谓语部分“渐渐成了”用“slowly became”表示,描述过去的变化用一般过去时态,表语“孩子们纵情玩乐的一个节日”意译为“an exciting festival for children”,“虽然起源于宗教”作让步状语,用介词短语“in spite of its religious origins”来表达。综上,全句译为:Another example is Halloween, which slowly became an exciting festival for children, in spite of its religious origins.
57. 音乐是岩石,让我倚靠,变得坚强,度过那些艰难的日子。(汉译英)
___________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】Music is like a rock, allowing me to lean on it, become strong and get through those hard days.
【解析】
【详解】考查名词、动词短语和非谓语动词。根据句意以及句子结构可知,表示“音乐”为名词Music;表示“像是……”为动词be like;表示“岩石”为名词rock;后接非谓语动词作状语,表示“允许某人做某事”的动词短语allow sb to do sth和Music为主动关系,所以为现在分词形式;表示“倚靠”为动词短语lean on it;表示“变得坚强”应为动词短语become strong;表示“度过那些艰难的日子”应为动词短语get through those hard days。故翻译为:Music is like a rock, allowing me to lean on it, become strong and get through those hard days.
58. 在英国,历史与现实文化交融,新旧传统并存,引人入胜。(汉译英)
___________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】In Britain, history and contemporary culture blend, and old and new traditions coexist, which is fascinating.
【解析】
【详解】考查动词、短语和名词。表示“在英国”应用介词短语In Britain;表示“历史与现实文化交融”可用主谓结构history and contemporary culture blend;表示“新旧传统并存”可用并列结构old and new traditions coexist;表示“引人入胜”可用非限制性定语从句which is fascinating补充说明前文。故翻译为In Britain, history and contemporary culture blend, and old and new traditions coexist, which is fascinating.
59. 他被这段音乐打动了,他说:“那种(兴奋)的感觉就如同第一次看见色彩一样。”(v-ed作原因状语)(汉译英)
____________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】Moved by this music, he said, “It was like seeing color for the first time.”
【解析】
【详解】考查动词、名词、介词短语和非谓语动词。句子在描述过去发生的事情,时态应用一般过去时;“被……打动”可用动词短语be moved by,“这段音乐”可用名词短语this music;“被这段音乐打动了”可表达为过去分词短语moved by this music作状语,表被动意义;主语“他”用代词he,“说”可用动词said作谓语;直接引语部分的主语“那种感觉”可用代词it,“就如同……一样”可用系动词was和介词like搭配,“看见色彩”可用动词短语see color,且因为是作like的宾语,see应用动名词形式,“第一次”可用介词短语for the first time。故可译为:Moved by this music, he said, “It was like seeing color for the first time.”
60. 最后,在二十世纪时,爱尔兰南部脱离了联合王国,形成了今天的英国全称:大不列颠及北爱尔兰联合王国。(汉译英)
___________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】Finally, in the 20th century, southern Ireland broke away from the United Kingdom, forming the full name of today’s UK: the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland.
【解析】
【详解】考查时态、动词短语和非谓语动词。表示“最后”应用副词finally,置于句首作状语;表示“在二十世纪时”短语为 in the 20th century,作时间状语;表示“脱离”短语为 break away from,此处描述过去发生的动作,应用一般过去时,break的过去式为broke;“联合王国”译为the United Kingdom;“形成”在此处表示结果,用现在分词forming作状语;“今天的英国全称”译为the full name of today’s UK;“大不列颠及北爱尔兰联合王国”译为the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland。故翻译为Finally, in the 20th century, southern Ireland broke away from the United Kingdom, forming the full name of today’s UK: the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland.

【答案】
Music: A Universal Language
Dear fellow students,
Good morning! I’m honored to deliver a speech whose title is “Music: A Universal Language”.
Music, a true universal language, needs no translation. Be it African drums’ rhythms, Chinese guzheng’s gentle tunes, or Beethoven’s passionate symphonies, it bridges cultures, conveys emotions words can’t, and unites hearts.
For me, music is a constant companion. Amid homework, light piano music helps me relax and focus. On weekends, singing with the music club relieves stress and strengthens friendship. It teaches that beauty lies in simplicity and harmony comes from diverse notes — lessons for daily life.
Let’s embrace music: join a choir, learn an instrument, or just listen. Let it enrich minds, heal souls, and unite us as a global family.
Yours,
President of the School Music Club
