It has a variety of dining options. Here are some suggestions on where to start your Bangkok eating adventure. Nahm Offering Thai fine dining, Nahm provides the best of Bangkok culinary (烹饪的) experiences. It’s the only Thai restaurant that ranks among the top 10 of the world’s 50 best restaurants list. Head Chef David Thompson, who received a Michelin star for his London-based Thai restaurant of the same name, opened this branch in the Metropolitan Hotel in 2010. Issaya Siamese Club Issaya Siamese Club is internationally known Thai chef Ian Kittichai’s first flagship Bangkok restaurant. The menu in this beautiful colonial house includes traditional Thai cuisine combined with modern cooking methods. Bo.lan Bo.lan has been making waves in Bangkok’s culinary scene since it opened in 2009. Serving hard-to-find Thai dishes in an elegant atmosphere, the restaurant is true to Thai cuisine’s roots, yet still manages to add some special changes in flavor. This place is good for a candle-lit dinner or a work meeting with colleagues. For those extremely hungry, there’s a large set menu. Gaggan Earning first place on the latest “Asia’s 50 best restaurants” list progressive Indian restaurant Gaggan is one of the most exciting venues to arrive in Bangkok in recent years.

B January 20, 2025, a Chinese tech company named DeepSeek released a new AI called DeepSeek-R1. This smart program can solve maths problems, write codes, and answer questions like top models such as OpenAI’s GPT-4o, but it costs much less to build. The team spent only $5.58 million (1/70 of OpenAI’s cost) and used 2,048 computer chips for two months. This shows that good ideas can beat big money. DeepSeek-R1 learns by trying many times and getting better, like how students practise maths. Other AIs need lots of prepared examples, but R1 improves by itself. For example, in a global maths test, it got 79.8% right, slightly higher than OpenAI’s model. A simple version of R1 can even run on low-cost computers, helping schools and small companies. DeepSeek-R1 is free to use and change. On its first day online, over 19,000 programmers worldwide started projects to study it. A German scientist said experiments with R1 cost $10 instead of $ 300 with other AIs. Even Meta (a famous US tech company) top scientist said, “This kind of free AI could change the world.” US tech companies are worried. Meta plans to spend $65 billion more on AI research. Experts said China is catching up fast. A report in Nature magazine called R1 a “big step forward”, proving that smart ideas beat expensive tools. A DeepSeek engineer said, “We want AI to be a friend, not something only rich people can use.” With R1, China shows the world that great things come from new ideas and hard work, not just money. 24. What do we know about DeepSeek-R1 from paragraph 1? A. It falls behind OpenAI’s GPT-4o. B. It provides people with creative ideas. C. It’s low-cost with good performance. D. It’s time-consuming and material-wasting. 25. What does the underlined part “improves by itself” in paragraph 2 probably mean? A. Copies answers from other AIs. B. Becomes better through practice. C. Needs programmers to fix mistakes. D. Works only with expensive tools. 26. What’s Meta’s attitude towards the growth of DeepSeek-R1? A. Worried. B. Dismissive. C. Unclear. D. Confident. 27. What’s the author’s purpose of writing the text? A. To illustrate Chinese AI technology. B. To explain how computer chips work. C. To introduce an AI model from China. D. To inspire students to become programmers. C Scientists visiting Henderson Island in the South Pacific recently made an alarming discovery. Despite being one of the most remote and previously untouched places on Earth, the island was covered in plastic waste. Shockingly, they estimated there were 38 million pieces of plastic, weighing nearly 18 tons, with thousands of new pieces washing up daily. Plastic takes hundreds of years to decompose, meaning that actually all the plastic ever produced still exists in some form. Unfortunately, around 95% of plastic is not recycled, and substantial amounts end up in the ocean. Currents collect this waste in large circular systems called “gyres (环流) ”. The problem gets worse as plastic breaks down into very small pieces, or “microplastics”. This is eaten by fish and leads to massive species loss. Humans also eat these fish, and microplastics have even been found in tap water around the world. The plastic on Henderson Island accounts for just 2 seconds’ worth of global annual plastic production. However, there are some young minds working to clean up and protect the sea for future generations. Young Boyan Slat decided to dedicate his life to solving this problem. Previously the problem was considered too big to solve; collecting the plastic with boats and nets would be expensive, would harm sea life, and would take thousands of years! But, Boyan thought, why move through the sea when the sea can move through you? To work with the currents and gyres would help collect the waste. So he started The Ocean Cleanup Project, which places very long floating barriers in the Pacific. Currents then concentrate the waste naturally so it can be collected and recycled. Boyan reflects on the broader issue, stating, “Many problems today are side effects of things people didn’t think about in the past. Sea plastic is a symbol of the negative effects of our lifestyle and technology. Our aim should be to create a new lifestyle for this century. Protecting the sea from plastic is a good place to start.” 28. What did the scientists visiting Henderson Island find? A. Henderson Island is filled with plastic. B. No fish swim in the South Pacific Ocean. C. Few human beings live on the Henderson Island. D. Henderson Island is the most remote place in the world. 29. What's the main consequence of plastic breaking down into microplastics? A. Reduction in overall plastic waste. B. Significant loss of species. C. Improved accessibility to ocean gyres. D. Increase in fish population. 30. What can we learn from paragraph 3? A. How The Ocean Cleanup Project works. B. Tackling plastic cleanup is not a big issue. C. Let the sea decompose the plastic waste naturally. D. Picking up plastic with boats and nets would be a good way. 31. Which of the following can best describe Boyan Slat? A. Knowledgeable and sensitive. B. Devoted and courageous. C. Considerate and straightforward. D. Intelligent and responsible. D Suzhou Museum is always seeing a constant stream of visitors. It covers an area of 19,000 square meters and houses over 25,000 pieces and sets of cultural relics. It receives more than 2.5 million visits annually. The museum was designed by famous architect Ieoh Ming Pei and has maintained high popularity since it was opened in 2006. However, this structure was once challenged by high energy consumption, high operational cost and high carbon emissions. To address this challenge, Suzhou Museum decided to build itself into a carbon-neutral (碳中和的) facility in 2021. Promoting low-carbon operations starts with accurately measuring energy consumption of the museum. Therefore, the museum invited a team led by Professor Wei Qingpeng from Tsinghua University to conduct a thorough analysis of the facility. Many of the museum’s systems and pipelines were hidden within narrow spaces between floors, requiring the team members to crawl (爬) into tight areas with instruments to collect data. After over two years of effort, the team completed the analysis of the museum’s structures, materials, and equipment. They presented a detailed report and a tailored plan. With each piece of equipment being upgraded, a new energy ecosystem has gradually taken shape within the museum. “Even though the new equipment is advanced, if each system operates independently without cooperation, overall energy consumption won’t improve much,” said Wei. To address this, he developed a “digital brain”. This system creates a small-scale Internet of Things network within the museum, connecting all devices. Wei told People’s Daily that his team is currently working on upgrading this “digital brain”. In the future, it will precisely manage energy distribution, determining, for example, how much energy each artifact (手工艺品) requires or how much cool air needs to be supplied to individual display cases daily. Suzhou Museum aims to transform itself into a secure, cooperative, green, and intelligent smart museum by 2025. 32. Why did Suzhou Museum invite a team from Tsinghua University? A. To design new exhibition areas and display more exhibits. B. To repair the hidden pipelines for better facility operation. C. To develop a new “digital brain” for museum management. D. To investigate energy usage and plan energy-saving measures. 33. What might prevent the overall energy consumption improving efficiently? A. Equipment being upgraded slowly. B. The lack of energy ecosystem. C. Each system working individually. D. The misuse of the small-scale network. 34. What’s the function of the future “digital brain”? A. Distributing energy accurately. B. Managing the security system. C. Preserving new cultural relics. D. Helping train the museum staff. 35. What’s the best title for the text? A. Suzhou Museum: A Renowned Cultural Icon B. The Low-carbon Transformation of Suzhou Museum C. The Application of “Digital Brain” in Suzhou Museum D. Suzhou Museum: A Blend of Tradition and Modernity 第二节（共5小题; 每小题2.5分, 满分12.5分） 阅读下面短文, 从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Science fiction, or sci-fi, with more themes related to environmental issues, overpopulation, and technological growth, has explosively (爆发地) grown in popularity since the beginning of the 21st century. ____36____ Some Chinese Sci-Fi History ____37____Few works were translated. And the Western world had little to no taste for it. The history of Chinese sci-fi is extensive, but the modern genre first took root during the 1900s. Authors such as Lu Xun promoted sci-fi’s early development in China and translated multiple Western stories like Jules Verne’s From the Earth to the Moon. Following the 1970s, China began its own golden age of science fiction. Movies, clubs, magazines, societies and communities formed around this genre and became increasingly popular among Chinese readers. ____38____ Its Entry into the West Chinese sci-fi has become internationally recognized mainly because of Ken Liu, who translated The Three-Body Problem, the first contemporary Chinese sci-fi novel to be translated into English. ____39____Chinese sci-fi’s introduction into the West began with this novel, and it couldn’t have been given a better international debut (亮相). Liu has become a go-to source for Chinese authors seeking international audiences. What Makes Chinese Sci-Fi Distinctive (独特的) The subgenre is unique for using a number of cultural and traditional objects, words, places and beliefs. ____40____The stories are also different because many modern Chinese sci-fi authors were heavily affected by the events of the 20th century. Their perspectives (思维方式) and ideas on morals, ethics ( 伦理), government, politics, science and anything in between come from standpoints previously unknown to Western readers. A. Published in 2014, it proved to be a huge success. B. He is a writer, translator and computer scientist. C. Before the 2000s, Chinese sci-fi was lesser-known. D. Chinese sci-fi also made its way to take the West by storm. E. Similar to Western sci-fi, it has experienced the ups and downs. F. This laid the foundation for its eventual introduction to Western readers. G. This makes Chinese sci-fi a cultural and historical analysis of China. 第三部分 语言运用（共两节, 满分30分） 第一节（共15小题; 每小题1分, 满分15分） 阅读下面短文, 从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 Borneo is home to some of the most extraordinary wildlife.

I cried, delighted. “Her name is Gracie,” my husband said, reading a sign by the fence that enclosed the pool. A moment later, another seal swam past. “And that must be Billy,” he added. Gracie dove back into the water and chased after Billy. We watched in wonder as they raced around the pool happily. The next day I found myself back at the seals’ pool. Gracie and Billy were enjoying the morning sunshine on a large rock. I was surprised to learn that Gracie and Billy were blind (失明的).They were thought to have suffered a head injury in stormy Alaska waters,which caused them to lose their sight. They needed to be taught to survive in a world of darkness. I felt sorry for them, as they could no longer return to the sea. At the same time, I was amazed how they had adjusted their new environment. They moved easily and beautifully, their lack of (缺乏) sight seeming to be no problem at all.1spent hours watching them playing happily in the pool,nosing (用鼻子顶) large red and blue balls. Three years later, in spring 2020, a serious illness damaged my eyes, making me almost blind. My eyes had to be protected from sunlight, so I couldn't go outside.

I’d like to talk about an inventor, James Dyson. His ideas come because he sees things that could work better, like the hand dryer. But how did he start? Well, Dyson was born in England in 1947. He studied Art and Design before he studied Engineering. When he saw something that didn’t work well, he got upset and worked to improve it. For example, his first invention was a vehicle with a ball for a wheel. This made it easier to carry heavy things in the garden and over rough ground. It was an interesting new use for a ball. Also, even though he changed majors, he was still interested in art as well as design. Take a look at this photo. What do you see? It looks like a waterfall made from glass and water, with the water running up instead of falling down. That’s surprising. This was a piece of art that Dyson made in 2003 called Wrong Garden. It tricks the eye. Dyson is still inventing new things, but he is also interested in supporting education for students. He has even donated money to the University of Cambridge to support students and research there, with a focus on technology. 第二部分 阅读（共两节, 满分50分） 第一节（共15小题; 每小题2.5分, 满分37.5分） 阅读下列短文, 从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 A Where to Eat in Bangkok Bangkok is a highly desirable destination for food lovers.

This smart program can solve maths problems, write codes, and answer questions like top models such as OpenAI’s GPT-4o, but it costs much less to build. The team spent only $5.58 million (1/70 of OpenAI’s cost) and used 2,048 computer chips for two months. This shows that good ideas can beat big money. DeepSeek-R1 learns by trying many times and getting better, like how students practise maths. Other AIs need lots of prepared examples, but R1 improves by itself. For example, in a global maths test, it got 79.8% right, slightly higher than OpenAI’s model. A simple version of R1 can even run on low-cost computers, helping schools and small companies. DeepSeek-R1 is free to use and change. On its first day online, over 19,000 programmers worldwide started projects to study it. A German scientist said experiments with R1 cost $10 instead of $ 300 with other AIs. Even Meta (a famous US tech company) top scientist said, “This kind of free AI could change the world.” US tech companies are worried. Meta plans to spend $65 billion more on AI research. Experts said China is catching up fast. A report in Nature magazine called R1 a “big step forward”, proving that smart ideas beat expensive tools. A DeepSeek engineer said, “We want AI to be a friend, not something only rich people can use.” With R1, China shows the world that great things come from new ideas and hard work, not just money. 24. What do we know about DeepSeek-R1 from paragraph 1? A. It falls behind OpenAI’s GPT-4o. B. It provides people with creative ideas. C. It’s low-cost with good performance. D. It’s time-consuming and material-wasting. 25. What does the underlined part “improves by itself” in paragraph 2 probably mean? A. Copies answers from other AIs. B. Becomes better through practice. C. Needs programmers to fix mistakes. D. Works only with expensive tools. 26. What’s Meta’s attitude towards the growth of DeepSeek-R1? A. Worried. B. Dismissive. C. Unclear. D. Confident. 27. What’s the author’s purpose of writing the text? A. To illustrate Chinese AI technology. B. To explain how computer chips work. C. To introduce an AI model from China. D. To inspire students to become programmers. 【答案】24. C 25. B 26. A 27. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。文章主要报道了2025年1月20日中国科技公司DeepSeek推出新的AI模型DeepSeek-R1，该模型功能强大且成本低，引发全球AI行业震动。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段内容“January 20, 2025, a Chinese tech company named DeepSeek released a new AI called DeepSeek-R1.

Despite being one of the most remote and previously untouched places on Earth, the island was covered in plastic waste. Shockingly, they estimated there were 38 million pieces of plastic, weighing nearly 18 tons, with thousands of new pieces washing up daily. Plastic takes hundreds of years to decompose, meaning that actually all the plastic ever produced still exists in some form. Unfortunately, around 95% of plastic is not recycled, and substantial amounts end up in the ocean. Currents collect this waste in large circular systems called “gyres (环流) ”. The problem gets worse as plastic breaks down into very small pieces, or “microplastics”. This is eaten by fish and leads to massive species loss. Humans also eat these fish, and microplastics have even been found in tap water around the world. The plastic on Henderson Island accounts for just 2 seconds’ worth of global annual plastic production. However, there are some young minds working to clean up and protect the sea for future generations. Young Boyan Slat decided to dedicate his life to solving this problem. Previously the problem was considered too big to solve; collecting the plastic with boats and nets would be expensive, would harm sea life, and would take thousands of years! But, Boyan thought, why move through the sea when the sea can move through you? To work with the currents and gyres would help collect the waste. So he started The Ocean Cleanup Project, which places very long floating barriers in the Pacific. Currents then concentrate the waste naturally so it can be collected and recycled. Boyan reflects on the broader issue, stating, “Many problems today are side effects of things people didn’t think about in the past. Sea plastic is a symbol of the negative effects of our lifestyle and technology. Our aim should be to create a new lifestyle for this century. Protecting the sea from plastic is a good place to start.” 28. What did the scientists visiting Henderson Island find? A. Henderson Island is filled with plastic. B. No fish swim in the South Pacific Ocean. C. Few human beings live on the Henderson Island. D. Henderson Island is the most remote place in the world. 29. What's the main consequence of plastic breaking down into microplastics? A. Reduction in overall plastic waste. B. Significant loss of species. C. Improved accessibility to ocean gyres. D. Increase in fish population. 30. What can we learn from paragraph 3? A. How The Ocean Cleanup Project works. B. Tackling plastic cleanup is not a big issue. C. Let the sea decompose the plastic waste naturally. D. Picking up plastic with boats and nets would be a good way. 31. Which of the following can best describe Boyan Slat? A. Knowledgeable and sensitive. B. Devoted and courageous. C. Considerate and straightforward. D. Intelligent and responsible. 【答案】28. A 29. B 30. A 31. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了海洋的塑料污染问题以及对此实施的解决方案。 【28题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“Scientists visiting Henderson Island in the South Pacific recently made an alarming discovery. Despite being one of the most remote and previously untouched places on Earth, the island was covered in plastic waste. (参观南太平洋亨德森岛的科学家最近有一个令人担忧的发现。尽管该岛是地球上最偏远、最原始的地方之一，但它被塑料垃圾覆盖着。)”可知，科学家们发现享德森岛上到处都是塑料。故选A项。 【29题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“The problem gets worse as plastic breaks down into very small pieces, or ‘microplastics’. This is eaten by fish and leads to massive species loss. (随着塑料分解成非常小的碎片，或‘微塑料’，问题变得更糟。微塑料被鱼吃掉，导致大量物种灭绝。)”可知，塑料分解为微塑料后致使大量物种灭绝。故选B项。 【30题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“To work with the currents and gyres would help collect the waste. So he started The Ocean Cleanup Project, which places very long floating barriers in the Pacific. Currents then concentrate the waste naturally so it can be collected and recycled. (利用洋流和环流将有助于收集垃圾。所以他开始了‘海洋清理项目’，在太平洋上放置了很长的浮动屏障。然后，洋流会自然地将垃圾集中起来，以便收集和回收。)”可知，从第三段中我们可以了解到“海洋清理项目”是如何运作的。故选A项。 31题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中的“However, there are some young minds working to clean up and protect the sea for future generations. Young Boyan Slat decided to dedicate his life to solving this problem. Previously the problem was considered too big to solve; collecting the plastic with boats and nets would be expensive, would harm sea life, and would take thousands of years! But, Boyan thought, why move through the sea when the sea can move through you? To work with the currents and gyres would help collect the waste. So he started The Ocean Cleanup Project, which places very long floating barriers in the Pacific. (然而，也有一些年轻人致力于为子孙后代清理和保护海洋。年轻的Boyan Slat决定将自己的一生奉献给解决这个问题。以前，这个问题被认为太大而无法解决；用船和网收集塑料会很昂贵，会伤害海洋生物，而且需要数千年的时间！但是，Boyan想，既然大海可以穿过你，为什么还要穿过大海呢？利用洋流和环流将有助于收集废物。于是，他启动了海洋清理项目，在太平洋上设置了很长的浮动屏障。)”及最后一段中Boyan Slat所说的话“Our aim should be to create a new lifestyle for this century. Protecting the sea from plastic is a good place to start. (我们的目标应该是为本世纪创造一种新的生活方式。保护海洋免受塑料污染是一个很好的起点。)”可知，Boyan Slat是一个有责任心且聪明的人。故选D项。 D Suzhou Museum is always seeing a constant stream of visitors. It covers an area of 19,000 square meters and houses over 25,000 pieces and sets of cultural relics. It receives more than 2.5 million visits annually. The museum was designed by famous architect Ieoh Ming Pei and has maintained high popularity since it was opened in 2006. However, this structure was once challenged by high energy consumption, high operational cost and high carbon emissions. To address this challenge, Suzhou Museum decided to build itself into a carbon-neutral (碳中和) facility in 2021. Promoting low-carbon operations starts with accurately measuring energy consumption of the museum. Therefore, the museum invited a team led by Professor Wei Qingpeng from Tsinghua University to conduct a thorough analysis of the facility. Many of the museum’s systems and pipelines were hidden within narrow spaces between floors, requiring the team members to crawl (爬) into tight areas with instruments to collect data. After over two years of effort, the team completed the analysis of the museum’s structures, materials, and equipment. They presented a detailed report and a tailored plan. With each piece of equipment being upgraded, a new energy ecosystem has gradually taken shape within the museum. “Even though the new equipment is advanced, if each system operates independently without cooperation, overall energy consumption won’t improve much,” said Wei. To address this, he developed a “digital brain”. This system creates a small-scale Internet of Things network within the museum, connecting all devices. Wei told People’s Daily that his team is currently working on upgrading this “digital brain”. In the future, it will precisely manage energy distribution, determining, for example, how much energy each artifact (手工艺品) requires or how much cool air needs to be supplied to individual display cases daily. Suzhou Museum aims to transform itself into a secure, cooperative, green, and intelligent smart museum by 2025. 32. Why did Suzhou Museum invite a team from Tsinghua University? A. To design new exhibition areas and display more exhibits. B. To repair the hidden pipelines for better facility operation. C. To develop a new “digital brain” for museum management. D. To investigate energy usage and plan energy-saving measures. 33. What might prevent the overall energy consumption improving efficiently? A. Equipment being upgraded slowly. B. The lack of energy ecosystem. C. Each system working individually. D. The misuse of the small-scale network. 34. What’s the function of the future “digital brain”? A. Distributing energy accurately. B. Managing the security system. C. Preserving new cultural relics. D. Helping train the museum staff. 35. What’s the best title for the text? A. Suzhou Museum: A Renowned Cultural Icon B. The Low-carbon Transformation of Suzhou Museum C. The Application of “Digital Brain” in Suzhou Museum D. Suzhou Museum: A Blend of Tradition and Modernity 【答案】32. D 33. C 34. A 35. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了苏州博物馆在面对高能耗、高运营成本和高碳排放等挑战下，决定将自己打造成一个碳中和设施，并为此采取了一系列措施。 【32题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“However, this structure was once challenged by high energy consumption, high operational cost and high carbon emissions.

I cried, delighted. “Her name is Gracie,” my husband said, reading a sign by the fence that enclosed the pool. A moment later, another seal swam past. “And that must be Billy,” he added. Gracie dove back into the water and chased after Billy. We watched in wonder as they raced around the pool happily. The next day I found myself back at the seals’ pool. Gracie and Billy were enjoying the morning sunshine on a large rock. I was surprised to learn that Gracie and Billy were blind (失明的).They were thought to have suffered a head injury in stormy Alaska waters,which caused them to lose their sight. They needed to be taught to survive in a world of darkness. I felt sorry for them, as they could no longer return to the sea. At the same time, I was amazed how they had adjusted their new environment. They moved easily and beautifully, their lack of (缺乏) sight seeming to be no problem at all.1spent hours watching them playing happily in the pool,nosing (用鼻子顶) large red and blue balls. Three years later, in spring 2020, a serious illness damaged my eyes, making me almost blind. My eyes had to be protected from sunlight, so I couldn't go outside. I sat in my bedroom with the.shades drawn, unable to read or even watch television. I was terrified.What if I lost my sight completely? How would I possibly manage?

Yes, I thought of the two seals. They got used to their new life in the pool regardless of the great changes when they were unable to go back to the sea where they were supposed to be. What’s more, they managed to enjoy a happy life though they lived in darkness as a result of their blindness. Now I was faced with the same situation. Luckily, the two seals had set a good example for me. So I decided to live like those two seals. Though I was kept from the outside world, I did find pleasure in my small world, enjoying chatting with friends, singing with my family, listening to music, and eating delicious food. The seals’ diving and swimming around their pool reminded me of exercise. So I climbed up and down the stairs every morning to keep fit. Eventually I became confident again about myself. Thanks to my two inspiring friends. I learned how to enjoy life when going through a difficult time. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了作者和丈夫在一个泳池里看到两头海豹开心地玩耍，却很惊讶地得知，它们已经失明，再也不能回到大海，作者感叹于它们可以适应黑暗，仍然生活得很快乐。三年后，作者也因病几乎失明，很害怕，情绪低落。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句“然后我想起了一些东西，给了我需要的希望。”内容可知，第一段可描写作者想到了三年前见到的那两只失明的海豹，回忆起它们接受命运给予的苦难，适应黑暗并开心地生活玩耍。 ②由第二段首句内容“所以我决定像那两只海豹一样生活。”可知第二段可描写作者决定积极生活，融入社会，强身健体，实现自我价值。 2.续写线索： 回忆——适应黑暗——决定——融入社会——自信——感谢——感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①习惯于：got used to/be used to/became used to ②面对：faced with/confronted with/up against ③提醒：reminded/warned/alerted 情绪类 ①开心：happy/glad/joyful ②快乐：pleasure/cheerful/delight 【点睛】[高分句型1] They got used to their new life in the pool regardless of the great changes when they were unable to go back to the sea where they were supposed to be.(运用了由when引导的时间状语从句) [高分句型2] Though I was kept from the outside world, I did find pleasure in my small world, enjoying chatting with friends, singing with my family, listening to music, and eating delicious food.(运用了由Though引导的让步状语从句) 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$长水教育集团2024至2025学年第二学期质量检测五月高2英语听力部分。该部分分为第一第二两节，请看听力部分第一节，第一节听下面5段对话，每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的ABC3个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段对话后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对话仅读一遍。现在你有5秒钟的时间阅读第一小题的有关内容。Do you know anything about the books sale in . the city library?
