The young man was also interested in the house. He decided to get of at the next station and make his way to the house. The owner of the house said that he was trying to sell the house, but no one would buy it, as the noise of the trains passing nearby made it uncomfortable to live in.
The young man decided to buy the house at once for $30,000. He used it for advertising, as the house faced the railway turning. The train had to slow down at the turning, giving the passengers plenty of time to look at the house.
The young man went to meet several businessmen and explained the advantages of placing advertisements on the side of the house. Finally, one businessman agreed to place some ads. The young man was paid $180,000 for three years of advertising.

John Smith is an exchange student from New York. Here is a letter to his friend in his hometown.
Dear David,
How time flies! It’s been 3 months since I came to China. I’m having fun on my student exchange program here. I am used to life here and have known a lot about traditional Chinese culture. I will share some with you.
In China, there are many different kinds of traditional art forms like paper cutting, Chinese clay art, the kite and sugar painting. But I like the kite best. The first ancient Chinese kite appeared more than 2,000 years ago. Then flying kites spread to Japan, Korea and Malaysia during the Tang Dynasty and the Song Dynasty. Kites are regarded as the earliest craft (飞行器). They played an important role in the process of inventing the plane.
Tea culture is important in China. Tea was discovered as a kind of drink by accident (意外) about 5,000 years ago. It is believed that tea was brought to Korea and Japan during the 6th and 7th centuries. It didn’t appear in England until around 1660. The tea trade from China to Western countries took place in the 19th century. Now tea has become one of the most popular drinks around the world.
Lastly, I’d like to tell you something about the Mid-Autumn Festival. Chinese people have been celebrating it and enjoying mooncakes for centuries.
If you’d like to know more about traditional Chinese culture, I will talk about it in the next letter.
Best wishes!
Yours,
John
62. How long has John been in China?
A. For one month. B. For three months. C. For one year. D. For three years.
63. Which traditional Chinese art form does John like best?
A. The kite. B. Paper cutting. C. Sugar painting. D. Chinese clay art.
64. When was tea discovered?
A. About 1,660 years ago. B. About 2,000 years ago.

In recent years, plastic pollution has become one of the biggest environmental problems around the world. Many countries have been looking for ways for a better future. On November 7, 2022, China started a “bamboo instead of plastic” activity with the International Network for Bamboo and Rattan (国际竹藤组织). This will hopefully increase the use of green bamboo products and reduce plastic pollution.
Bamboo is a renewable resource (可再生资源) of great value. Unlike trees, bamboo can be harvested (被采收) in 3 to 5 years. As long as it is protected well, bamboo can be cut every year and doesn’t have to be replanted. Bamboo can be used to make different kinds of products. These products can take the place of plastic products in many fields, such as packaging, building and daily things. Even a new bamboo washing machine has been invented in some impoverished areas where people don’t have electricity or money to buy traditional washing machines. It uses the natural flow (流动) of the water as power to run the machine. It’s believed that bamboo is friendly to the environment because it doesn’t cause any pollution.
China is one of the countries with the richest bamboo resources in the world. Provinces Zhejiang, Jiangxi, Hunan and Guizhou have set up (建立) companies to produce and develop bamboo products. What’s more, China is also sharing its technologies and experience to help other countries with rich bamboo resources. It is hoped that countries will work together for green development around the world.
66. What is the purpose in starting the “bamboo instead of plastic” activity?
A. To sell more bamboo to other countries. B. To reduce plastic pollution.
C. To find out how to grow bamboo easily. D. To develop a new type of bamboo.
67. What can we know about bamboo from Paragraph 2?
A. It needs more time to grow up than trees. B. It needs to be planted every year.
C. It can be cut every year with good protection. D. It can be made into only a few kinds of products.
68. What does the underlined word “impoverished” probably mean in the text?
A. Poor. B. Rich. C. Clean. D. Dry.
69. What is China sharing to help other countries with rich bamboo resources?
A. Workers and experience. B. Factories and technologies.
C. Factories and workers. D. Technologies and experience.
70. What can be the best title for the text?
A. More Bamboo, Less Pollution B. More Bamboo, More Food
C. More Plastic, More White D. Less Plastic, More Plants
【答案】66. B 67. C 68. A 69. D 70. A
【解析】
【导语】本文讲述了中国通过推广“以竹代塑”倡议,利用竹子作为可再生资源替代塑料制品,减少环境污染,并与其他国家共享相关技术和经验,共同推动全球绿色发展。
【66题详解】

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。
Last week we went on a school trip to a science museum. Ms. Liu, the guide, showed us around a smart home.
We started with the front door. Ms. Liu asked me to ring the doorbell. I didn’t notice the tiny camera that was fixed just above it. After I pressed (按) the doorbell, the camera sent a live video (视频直播) to the home-owners. “They can electronically open the door when they are not at home,” said Ms. Liu.
The other thing I couldn’t see on the door was a lock. “There must be one,” I thought. At this time, Ms. Liu took out a smart phone and put it against the door. And it opened. “Oh, the key is on the smart phone.”
After entering the living room, I saw a computer on a table. By using the computer, the owners can control (控制) how much energy is used. In this way, they can manage (管理) their living cost.
One of the rooms I wanted to see most was the bedroom. To my great surprise, the bed disappeared into the floor at the touch of the smart phone. The window has a smart blind (卷帘). It can be raised and lowered with a voice.
As I left the smart home, I looked back on what I had just seen. Scientists often say that these products are improving our life. I think the technology in the smart home may make us lazier.
However, it is sure that it will become more popular in the homes of tomorrow.

We can also recycle paper, plastic and glass to reduce waste. Another way is to take the bus or ride a bike instead of a car ride.

A young man was on a train. As the train turned a corner, it slowed down and then he saw a simple house. The house looked so different from the grey buildings of the city that everybody on the train turned to look at it. Some passengers began to talk about it.
The young man was also interested in the house. He decided to get of at the next station and make his way to the house. The owner of the house said that he was trying to sell the house, but no one would buy it, as the noise of the trains passing nearby made it uncomfortable to live in.
The young man decided to buy the house at once for $30,000. He used it for advertising, as the house faced the railway turning. The train had to slow down at the turning, giving the passengers plenty of time to look at the house.
The young man went to meet several businessmen and explained the advantages of placing advertisements on the side of the house. Finally, one businessman agreed to place some ads. The young man was paid $180,000 for three years of advertising.
In this world, turning disadvantages into advantages is the key to success.

A. At a corner along the railway. B. Next to the train station.
C. In the centre of the city. D. In front of a big company.
60. Why did no one buy the house?

John Smith is an exchange student from New York. Here is a letter to his friend in his hometown.
Dear David,
How time flies! It’s been 3 months since I came to China. I’m having fun on my student exchange program here. I am used to life here and have known a lot about traditional Chinese culture. I will share some with you.
In China, there are many different kinds of traditional art forms like paper cutting, Chinese clay art, the kite and sugar painting. But I like the kite best. The first ancient Chinese kite appeared more than 2,000 years ago. Then flying kites spread to Japan, Korea and Malaysia during the Tang Dynasty and the Song Dynasty. Kites are regarded as the earliest craft (飞行器). They played an important role in the process of inventing the plane.
Tea culture is important in China. Tea was discovered as a kind of drink by accident (意外) about 5,000 years ago. It is believed that tea was brought to Korea and Japan during the 6th and 7th centuries. It didn’t appear in England until around 1660. The tea trade from China to Western countries took place in the 19th century. Now tea has become one of the most popular drinks around the world.
Lastly, I’d like to tell you something about the Mid-Autumn Festival. Chinese people have been celebrating it and enjoying mooncakes for centuries.
If you’d like to know more about traditional Chinese culture, I will talk about it in the next letter.
Best wishes!
Yours,
John

In recent years plastic pollution has become one of the biggest environmental problems around the world. Many countries have been looking for ways for a better future. On November 7, 2022, China started a “bamboo instead of plastic” activity with the International Network for Bamboo and Rattan (国际竹藤组织). This will hopefully increase the use of green bamboo products and reduce plastic pollution.
Bamboo is a renewable resource (可再生资源) of great value. Unlike trees, bamboo can be harvested (被采收) in 3 to 5 years. As long as it is protected well, bamboo can be cut every year and doesn’t have to be replanted. Bamboo can be used to make different kinds of products. These products can take the place of plastic products in many fields, such as packaging, building and daily things. Even a new bamboo washing machine has been invented in some impoverished areas where people don’t have electricity or money to buy traditional washing machines. It uses the natural flow (流动) of the water as power to run the machine. It’s believed that bamboo is friendly to the environment because it doesn’t cause any pollution.
China is one of the countries with the richest bamboo resources in the world. Provinces Zhejiang, Jiangxi, Hunan and Guizhou have set up (建立) companies to produce and develop bamboo products. What’s more, China is also sharing its technologies and experience to help other countries with rich bamboo resources. It is hoped that countries will work together for green development around the world.
66. What is the purpose in starting the “bamboo instead of plastic” activity?
A. To sell more bamboo to other countries. B. To reduce plastic pollution.
C. To find out how to grow bamboo easily. D. To develop a new type of bamboo.
67. What can we know about bamboo from Paragraph 2?
A. It needs more time to grow up than trees. B. It needs to be planted every year.
C. It can be cut every year with good protection. D. It can be made into only a few kinds of products.
68. What does the underlined word “impoverished” probably mean in the text?
A. Poor. B. Rich. C. Clean. D. Dry.
69. What is China sharing to help other countries with rich bamboo resources?
A. Workers and experience. B. Factories and technologies.
C. Factories and workers. D. Technologies and experience.
70. What can be the best title for the text?
A. More Bamboo, Less Pollution B. More Bamboo, More Food
C. More Plastic, More White D. Less Plastic, More Plants
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。
Last week we went on a school trip to a science museum. Ms. Liu, the guide, showed us around a smart home.
We started with the front door. Ms. Liu asked me to ring the doorbell. I didn’t notice the tiny camera that was fixed just above it. After I pressed (按) the doorbell, the camera sent a live video (视频直播) to the home-owners. “They can electronically open the door when they are not at home,” said Ms. Liu.
The other thing I couldn’t see on the door was a lock. “There must be one,” I thought. At this time, Ms. Liu took out a smart phone and put it against the door. And it opened. “Oh, the key is on the smart phone.”
After entering the living room, I saw a computer on a table. By using the computer, the owners can control (控制) how much energy is used. In this way, they can manage (管理) their living cost.
One of the rooms I wanted to see most was the bedroom. To my great surprise, the bed disappeared into the floor at the touch of the smart phone. The window has a smart blind (卷帘). It can be raised and lowered with a voice.
As I left the smart home, I looked back on what I had just seen. Scientists often say that these products are improving our life. I think the technology in the smart home may make us lazier.
However, it is sure that it will become more popular in the homes of tomorrow.
71. What does Ms. Liu do?
_______________________________________________________
72. What did the camera send to the home-owners when the writer pressed the doorbell?
_______________________________________________________
73. Where is the key to the door?
_______________________________________________________
74. How can the owners control how much energy is used?

75. Do you like the technology in the smart home? Why or why not?
