And he kept telling himself, “Don’t forget the days in the state of Wu!” For years, Gou Jian worked in the fields with farmers and made every effort to build up the state of Yue.

How green are you? Do you know how to be green?
We all need a healthy environment, but we produce waste every day and it often results in lots of pollution. In fact, even the simplest everyday activities can make a difference to the environment. Here are some ideas for you.
Reduce. It means “use less”. It suggests people should produce less pollution and throw less rubbish. People should reduce waste by buying fewer things. So before we are going to buy a new thing, try to think whether it is really necessary for us.
Reuse. Reuse means “use again”. It asks people to use things as long as possible. When we buy things, make sure that we really need them and we can use them for a long time. We should value them so that we can use them for a longer time. And if we can, we should repair them instead of throwing them away and buying new ones. Don’t use a paper cup, a paper bag or a plastic (塑料的) bag. If we can use a china (陶瓷) cup, we are doing something green and helpful.
Recycle. Recycle means “use in a new way”. Many people encourage people to recycle things. Look at these examples. First, people often recycle old or waste electrical things and try to create some new things with some parts from the old ones. Second, some people try to make some bags with old clothes. At last, people often clean the house or water plants with used water.
32. What should we do before we are going to buy a new thing?
A. Produce waste. B. Throw rubbish. C. Try to think. D. Take a shower.
33. Which thing can we use for a longer time?
A. A china cup. B. A paper cup. C. A paper bag. D. A plastic bag.
34. How does the writer introduce how to recycle things in the fifth paragraph?
A. By telling a story. B. By showing some sayings.
C. By drawing a picture. D. By giving three examples.
35. What is the purpose of the passage?
A. To help protect animals. B. To tell how to invent things.
C To ask people to water plants. D. To encourage people to protect the environment.
【答案】32. C 33. A 34. D 35. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章通过介绍“3R原则”(Reduce减少、Reuse重复利用、Recycle回收利用),呼吁人们采取实际行动保护环境,减少污染和浪费。
【32题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“So before we are going to buy a new thing, try to think whether it is really necessary for us.”可知,买新东西前应先思考是否真的需要。故选C。
【33题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段“Don’t use a paper cup, a paper bag or a plastic bag. If we can use a china cup, we are doing something green and helpful.”可知,不要使用纸杯、纸袋或塑料袋,使用陶瓷杯是有利于环保且有益的事情,结合“重复使用 (Reuse)”的核心是“延长物品使用时间”,可推断陶瓷杯比纸杯、纸袋、塑料袋更耐用。故选A。
【34题详解】
细节理解题。根据第五段“Look at these examples. First... Second... At last...”可知,本段通过三个例子 (回收旧电器零件、用旧衣服做袋子、用废水打扫或浇花) 说明回收利用的方式。故选D。
【35题详解】
主旨大意题。综合全文可知,本文主要围绕“如何通过3R原则环保”展开,目的是鼓励人们采取行动保护环境。故选D。
D
Sometimes, families can be hard. People argue a lot. They get upset. Sometimes they stop talking. Our family has had lots of ups and downs. I’d say arguments often happen in our family, too.
I have an older brother and an older sister. I’m the baby boy in the family. We grew up in quite a small house and often didn’t have a lot of money. My mum and dad argued, pretty much all the time, just about anything. My brother and sister argued. And I used to argue.
But as I got older, I always chose to be the mediator (调解员). I would try to look at both sides of the argument and bring them together to make peace. “Dad, you shouldn’t say that to Mum, but Mum, try to see it this way.” “Come on guys, we all love each other. It’s just been a bad day.” I’d say it often worked.
I learned much growing up in our family: understanding, being patient and the knowledge that sometimes things just don’t go your way. We all make mistakes. We all say things that we wish we hadn’t. The key is to try and understand. Of course, sometimes, arguments do need to happen. If something is wrong, it needs to be solved and sometimes, we get angry about it. But as long as we can reflect and look at things with an attitude (态度) of care and responsibility, we can weather the storm and help each other out.
36. What do we know about the writer’s family?
A. Two of the kids in the family are girls. B. The writer is the youngest in the family.
C. The writer never argues with his parents. D. His parents get along well with each other.
37. What did the writer often do as a mediator?
A. Started a conversation angrily. B. Did nothing but watch.
C. Helped one side to fight the other. D. Tried to make peace.
38. What did the writer learn from his family?
A. Knowledge is useless in communication.
B. A family shouldn’t share feelings with each other.
C. Arguments are always bad and should never happen.
D. A family should understand and care for each other.
39. What does the underlined phrase “weather the storm” mean?
A. To deal with a difficult situation successfully.
B. To ask somebody for help when in trouble.
C. To tell exactly what the weather will be like.
D. To explain what to do during a storm.
40. What might be the best title for the passage?
A. My Parents’ Bad Days B. Growing Up in a Small House
C. Ups and Downs in My School D. Helping My Family Get Along
【答案】36. B 37. D 38. D 39. A 40. D

第二节 阅读表达(共5题;每题2分,满分10分)
阅读下面短文,简略回答问题。
In today’s world, people want answers fast. To help, big tech companies are creating chatbots using AI. Chatbots are smart programs that can talk to us on phones, apps and websites and give quick replies to our questions.
Chatbots have changed how we get information and shop online. They can do many things, like learning new knowledge, giving helpful suggestions and solving technical problems. This makes them very useful in our busy lives. There are two types of chatbots: open and closed. Closed chatbots use pre-written answers for common questions. Open chatbots, however, use advanced AI to understand what we want and give the right replies. They also learn from each conversation, becoming better at answering different questions over time.
The great thing about chatbots is that they’re used any time, even at night. And they can help many people at once, so we don’t have to wait long for answers. But chatbots aren’t perfect. Some questions are too difficult for chatbots to answer, and that’s why they need humans to train them. Besides, they can’t understand human feelings well. Many people still prefer talking to real persons because of the warmth they provide.
Chatbots have made online services faster and more convenient. But they can’t work best without working together with humans. By combining AI-powered chatbots and human skills, we get a better customer service experience that’s both quick and understanding. As we move forward in this digital age, using chatbots and human intelligence together will shape how we interact (互动) with technology in the future.
41. Who are creating chatbots using AI?
_________________________________________
42. What can chatbots do? (列举2点)
_________________________________________
43. Why do chatbots need humans to train them?
_________________________________________
44. How can chatbots work best?

45. Which type of chatbots do you like better, closed chatbots or open chatbots? Why?

【答案】41. Big tech companies.
42. They can learn new knowledge. They can give helpful suggestions. They can solve technical problems. (任选两点)
43. Because some questions are too difficult for chatbots to answer.
44. By working together with humans./They need to work together with humans.
45. 开放性试题,言之有理即可。参考答案:I like open chatbots better, because they can use advanced AI to help me with my homework.

During the Spring and Autumn Period (770—476 BC), the state of Wu and the state of Yue were neighbors in the south. They fought each other for several years. In one war in 496 BC, the king of Wu died. Later, his son, Fu Chai, became the new king. He made a decision to take revenge (复仇) for his father’s death.
A few years later, the state of Wu beat the state of Yue and caught his king, Gou Jian. Fu Chai ordered him to keep horses. Gou Jian pretended (假装) to be nice to Fu Chai. When the king became ill, Gou Jian looked after him day and night. Finally, Gou Jian got the chance to go back to his own state.
After returning, Gou Jian began to prepare to fight against the state of Wu again. To remind himself of his hard days in the state of Wu, he slept on firewood and tasted the gall (胆汁) before having dinner and going to bed. And he kept telling himself, “Don’t forget the days in the state of Wu!” For years, Gou Jian worked in the fields with farmers and made every effort to build up the state of Yue. Soon the state of Yue became stronger and people started to live better lives. In 473 BC, Gou Jian led an army and took over the state of Wu.
Those who fall from greatness can still succeed again, as long as they have the will.
29. When did the king of Wu die?
A. In 770 BC. B. In 476 BC. C. In 496 BC. D. In 473 BC.
30. Why did Gou Jian sleep on firewood and taste the gall every day?

How green are you? Do you know how to be green?
We all need a healthy environment, but we produce waste every day and it often results in lots of pollution. In fact, even the simplest everyday activities can make a difference to the environment. Here are some ideas for you.
Reduce. It means “use less”. It suggests people should produce less pollution and throw less rubbish. People should reduce waste by buying fewer things. So before we are going to buy a new thing, try to think whether it is really necessary for us.
Reuse. Reuse means “use again”. It asks people to use things as long as possible. When we buy things, make sure that we really need them and we can use them for a long time. We should value them so that we can use them for a longer time. And if we can, we should repair them instead of throwing them away and buying new ones. Don’t use a paper cup, a paper bag or a plastic (塑料的) bag. If we can use a china (陶瓷) cup, we are doing something green and helpful.
Recycle. Recycle means “use in a new way”. Many people encourage people to recycle things. Look at these examples. First, people often recycle old or waste electrical things and try to create some new things with some parts from the old ones. Second, some people try to make some bags with old clothes. At last, people often clean the house or water plants with used water.
32. What should we do before we are going to buy a new thing?
A. Produce waste. B. Throw rubbish. C. Try to think. D. Take a shower.
33. Which thing can we use for a longer time?
A. A china cup. B. A paper cup. C. A paper bag. D. A plastic bag.
34. How does the writer introduce how to recycle things in the fifth paragraph?
A. By telling a story. B. By showing some sayings.
C. By drawing a picture. D. By giving three examples.
35. What is the purpose of the passage?
A. To help protect animals. B. To tell how to invent things.
C. To ask people to water plants. D. To encourage people to protect the environment.
D
Sometimes, families can be hard. People argue a lot. They get upset. Sometimes they stop talking. Our family has had lots of ups and downs. I’d say arguments often happen in our family, too.
I have an older brother and an older sister. I’m the baby boy in the family. We grew up in quite a small house and often didn’t have a lot of money. My mum and dad argued, pretty much all the time, just about anything. My brother and sister argued. And I used to argue.
But as I got older, I always chose to be the mediator (调解员). I would try to look at both sides of the argument and bring them together to make peace. “Dad, you shouldn’t say that to Mum, but Mum, try to see it this way.” “Come on guys, we all love each other. It’s just been a bad day.” I’d say it often worked.
I learned much growing up in our family: understanding, being patient and the knowledge that sometimes things just don’t go your way. We all make mistakes. We all say things that we wish we hadn’t. The key is to try and understand. Of course, sometimes, arguments do need to happen. If something is wrong, it needs to be solved and sometimes, we get angry about it. But as long as we can reflect and look at things with an attitude (态度) of care and responsibility, we can weather the storm and help each other out.
36. What do we know about the writer’s family?
A. Two of the kids in the family are girls. B. The writer is the youngest in the family.
C The writer never argues with his parents. D. His parents get along well with each other.
37. What did the writer often do as a mediator?
A. Started a conversation angrily. B. Did nothing but watch.
C. Helped one side to fight the other. D. Tried to make peace.
38. What did the writer learn from his family?
A. Knowledge is useless in communication.
B. A family shouldn’t share feelings with each other.
C. Arguments are always bad and should never happen.
D. A family should understand and care for each other.
39. What does the underlined phrase “weather the storm” mean?
A. To deal with a difficult situation successfully.
B. To ask somebody for help when in trouble.
C. To tell exactly what the weather will be like.
D. To explain what to do during a storm.
40. What might be the best title for the passage?
A. My Parents’ Bad Days B. Growing Up in a Small House
C. Ups and Downs in My School D. Helping My Family Get Along
第二节 阅读表达(共5题;每题2分,满分10分)
阅读下面短文,简略回答问题。
In today’s world, people want answers fast. To help, big tech companies are creating chatbots using AI. Chatbots are smart programs that can talk to us on phones, apps and websites and give quick replies to our questions.
Chatbots have changed how we get information and shop online. They can do many things, like learning new knowledge, giving helpful suggestions and solving technical problems. This makes them very useful in our busy lives. There are two types of chatbots: open and closed. Closed chatbots use pre-written answers for common questions. Open chatbots, however, use advanced AI to understand what we want and give the right replies. They also learn from each conversation, becoming better at answering different questions over time.
The great thing about chatbots is that they’re used any time, even at night. And they can help many people at once, so we don’t have to wait long for answers. But chatbots aren’t perfect. Some questions are too difficult for chatbots to answer, and that’s why they need humans to train them. Besides, they can’t understand human feelings well. Many people still prefer talking to real persons because of the warmth they provide.
Chatbots have made online services faster and more convenient. But they can’t work best without working together with humans. By combining AI-powered chatbots and human skills, we get a better customer service experience that’s both quick and understanding. As we move forward in this digital age, using chatbots and human intelligence together will shape how we interact (互动) with technology in the future.
41. Who are creating chatbots using AI?
_________________________________________
42. What can chatbots do? (列举2点)

43. Why do chatbots need humans to train them?
