Guo Jincheng, known as the “armless flying fish,” was born in 2001 in a small village in Hebei Province. In 2006, he lost both arms in an accident. This was a huge blow to the young boy, but it did not break his spirit.
In 2012, Guo Jincheng got a chance to change his life. He joined the Hebei Disabled Swimming Team. Starting his training was not easy. Without arms he couldn’t keep his balance (平衡) or move forward in water. But he practiced every day, sometimes for hours. Slowly but surely, he began to improve.
By 17, Guo had begun making a name for himself. He got three silvers and a bronze (铜牌) at the National Para Swimming Championships in 2018. A year later, he followed up with two silver s and a bronze at the National Para Games.
In 2023, he had an amazing year. In August, at the Swimming World Championships in Manchester, the UK, he won a gold medal and set a new world record. “That race gave me a lot of confidence,” he said. “I used to get nervous when I saw someone faster, but now that feeling disappeared.” In 2024, Guo took part in the Paralympics for the first time. He won the men’s 50m freestyle S5 final with a time of 29.33 seconds, setting another world record.
“Competition is like life,” Guo Jincheng said. “Success and failure happen in a moment, but only by pushing yourself can you achieve something great.”
53. What was the big problem for Guo Jincheng when starting his swimming training?
A. He was too young to swim. B. He didn’t get a coach to teach him.
C. He couldn’t find enough training time. D. He failed to keep balance and move forward.
54. When did Guo Jincheng first break the world record?
A. In 2012. B. In 2018. C. In 2023. D. In 2024.
55. What can we learn from Guo Jincheng’s story?
A. The early bird catches the worm. B. A friend in need is a friend indeed.
C. Actions speak louder than words. D. Where there is a will, there is a way.

【53题详解】

【55题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“‘Competition is like life,’ Guo Jincheng said. ‘Success and failure happen in a moment, but only by pushing yourself can you achieve something great.’”以及郭金城克服重重困难取得成功的故事,可以推断出我们可以从他的故事中学到“有志者事竟成”的道理。故选D。

70. has treated
【解析】
【导语】本文主要讲述了联合国儿童基金会(UNICEF)的成立背景、工作范围及使命。
【61题详解】
句意:它于1946年在欧洲成立。根据“in 1946”可知,时态是一般过去时,主语It与set之间是动宾关系,所以此处用一般过去时的被动语态,主语是It,所以用was set,故填was set。
【62题详解】
句意:在当时,许多儿童的生活因战争而非常糟糕。根据“At…time”可知,此处考查固定短语at that time“在当时”,指代特定时间,故填that。

【67题详解】
句意:它还认为这对孩子们接受教育很重要,所以它帮助他们上学。根据“it’s important for children…”可知,本句中it是形式主语,所以空处需用不定式作真正主语,故填to receive。
【68题详解】
句意:它与世界各地的大公司合作密切。根据“works…with”可知,空处修饰动词works,所以需用副词修饰动词closely,故填closely。
【69题详解】
句意:人们可以通过捐款或做志愿者来支持它。根据“by donating money or…”可知,空处与donating并列,所以应用动名词,故填working。
【70题详解】
句意:到目前为止,联合国儿童基金会治疗了全世界数百万儿童。根据“So far”可知,本句用现在完成时,主语是UNICEF,所以用has treated,故填has treated。
六、(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)
阅读短文,回答问题
Making waves
We can see waves (波浪) on lakes or seas. Waves are energy, not water. Usually, the wind provides the energy. Sometimes, an earthquake under the sea makes huge energy suddenly. This travels across the sea very quickly, then slows and grows in height when it reaches land.
The parts of a wave
We call the top of the wave the crest and the bottom the trough. The distance (距离) between the crest and the trough is the wave 3 . The distance between one crest and the next is the wave length.
How far waves go
Waves stop when the wind stops giving them energy. If the wind continues giving them energy, they can travel to the other side of the world. On rocks, waves break, and make a lot of water. On a beach, the sand or stones slow the bottom part of the wave. The crest rises to the highest point, then moves over the top. It makes the “classic” wave shape, and breaks on the shore.
注:每题答案不超过7个单词
71. Are waves energy or water?
________________________________________
72. What can provide the energy for waves?
________________________________________
73. Please write ONE suitable word in the blank in Paragraph 2.

72. (The) Wind and earthquakes (under the sea).
73. Height.
74. (A lot of/Lots of/Much) Water.
75. Waves./An introduction of waves.
【解析】
【导语】本文主要介绍了波浪的相关知识,包括波浪是什么、波浪的构成部分、波浪能传播多远等。
【71题详解】
根据第一段“Waves are energy, not water.”可知,波浪是能量,不是水。故填Energy./They are energy.
【72题详解】
根据第一段“Usually, the wind provides the energy. Sometimes, an earthquake under the sea makes huge energy suddenly.”可知,风和海底的地震能为波浪提供能量。故填(The) Wind and earthquakes (under the sea).
【73题详解】
根据第二段“The distance (距离) between the crest and the trough is the wave...”以及常识可知,波峰和波谷之间的距离是波高,此处应填表示“高度”的单词,height符合语境。故填Height.
【74题详解】
根据第三段“On rocks, waves break, and make a lot of water.”可知,当波浪撞击岩石破碎时,会产生大量的水。故填(A lot of/Lots of/Much) Water.
【75题详解】
文章主要围绕波浪展开,介绍了波浪的能量来源、构成部分以及传播等相关知识,所以标题可以是“Waves”或“An introduction of waves”。故填Waves./An introduction of waves.

76. isn’t the bottle there water any in (连词成句)

Guo Jincheng known as the “armless flying fish,” was born in 2001 in a small village in Hebei Province. In 2006, he lost both arms in an accident. This was a huge blow to the young boy, but it did not break his spirit.
In 2012, Guo Jincheng got a chance to change his life. He joined the Hebei Disabled Swimming Team. Starting his training was not easy. Without arms he couldn’t keep his balance (平衡) or move forward in water. But he practiced every day, sometimes for hours. Slowly but surely, he began to improve.
By 17, Guo had begun making a name for himself. He got three silvers and a bronze (铜牌) at the National Para Swimming Championships in 2018. A year later, he followed up with two silver s and a bronze at the National Para Games.
In 2023, he had an amazing year. In August, at the Swimming World Championships in Manchester, the UK, he won a gold medal and set a new world record. “That race gave me a lot of confidence,” he said. “I used to get nervous when I saw someone faster, but now that feeling disappeared.” In 2024, Guo took part in the Paralympics for the first time. He won the men’s 50m freestyle S5 final with a time of 29.33 seconds, setting another world record.
“Competition is like life,” Guo Jincheng said. “Success and failure happen in a moment, but only by pushing yourself can you achieve something great.”
53. What was the big problem for Guo Jincheng when starting his swimming training?
A. He was too young to swim. B. He didn’t get a coach to teach him.
C. He couldn’t find enough training time. D. He failed to keep balance and move forward.
54. When did Guo Jincheng first break the world record?
A. In 2012. B. In 2018. C. In 2023. D. In 2024.
55. What can we learn from Guo Jincheng’s story?
A. The early bird catches the worm. B. A friend in need is a friend indeed.
C. Actions speak louder than words. D. Where there is a will, there is a way.

Making waves
We can see waves (波浪) on lakes or seas. Waves are energy, not water. Usually, the wind provides the energy. Sometimes, an earthquake under the sea makes huge energy suddenly. This travels across the sea very quickly, then slows and grows in height when it reaches land.
The parts of a wave
We call the top of the wave the crest and the bottom the trough. The distance (距离) between the crest and the trough is the wave 3 . The distance between one crest and the next is the wave length.
How far waves go
Waves stop when the wind stops giving them energy. If the wind continues giving them energy, they can travel to the other side of the world. On rocks, waves break, and make a lot of water. On a beach, the sand or stones slow the bottom part of the wave. The crest rises to the highest point, then moves over the top. It makes the “classic” wave shape, and breaks on the shore.
