This event began in 1982 and turns cities and towns into open-air concert spaces. Musicians of all kinds perform freely in the streets, parks, and squares, creating an exciting atmosphere with various sounds. It's a day when music brings communities together, and everyone is welcome to enjoy the music in the air. Wianki Festival, Poland In June, Poland celebrates the Wianki Festival. This festival is held in Kraków. People gather by the Vistula River to make and float flower wreaths（花环）on the water. The events include live music, traditional Polish dances, and an amazing fireworks display over the river. The Wianki Festival is a time to enjoy the beauty of nature and the community spirit. Midsommar, Sweden Sweden's Midsommar festival happens around the summer solstice（夏至）. It centers on a midsummer pole, a decorated wooden pole around which traditional dances are performed. Families and communities get together to enjoy traditional dishes like pickled（腌渍的）herring and new potatoes. The festival celebrates the longest day of the year, filled with music, dance, and community happiness. Busójárás, Hungary The Busójárás festival takes place in late February or early March. People wear detailed wooden masks and fur clothing to represent old rituals meant to scare away evil spirits. The festival includes parades, traditional dances, and loud noises made with sticks and bells. It's a lively community event with traditional Hungarian food, music, and crafts, celebrating the end of winter. 1. What can a visitor do during Fête de la Musique? A.

D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇应用文。主要介绍了欧洲的四大节日。 【1题详解】 细节理解题。根据“Fête de la Musique, France”部分的描述“Musicians of all kinds perform freely in the streets, parks, and squares, creating an exciting atmosphere with various sounds.( 各种各样的音乐家在街道、公园和广场上自由表演，用各种各样的声音营造出激动人心的气氛。)”可知，在法国的音乐节（Fête de la Musique）上，各种音乐家在街道、公园和广场自由表演，所以游客可以在不同的地点欣赏现场音乐。故选A项。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。根据Wianki Festival, Poland中“In June, Poland celebrates the Wianki Festival. This festival is held in Kraków.( 六月，波兰庆祝维安基节。这个节日在Kraków举行。)”以及Midsommar, Sweden中“Sweden’s Midsommar festival happens around the summer solstice（夏至）.( 瑞典的仲夏节在夏至前后举行。)”可知，波兰的维安基节（Wianki Festival）在六月举行（In June, Poland celebrates the Wianki Festival.），瑞典的仲夏节（Midsommar）在夏至前后举行，夏至在六月，所以它们都在同一个月庆祝。故选B项。 【3题详解】 细节理解题。根据“Busójárás, Hungary”部分的“People wear detailed wooden masks and fur clothing to represent old rituals meant to scare away evil spirits.( 人们戴上精细的木制面具，穿着毛皮衣服，代表古老的仪式，意在吓跑恶灵。)”可知，在匈牙利的布索亚拉什节（Busójárás），人们穿戴木制面具和毛皮服装来代表驱除恶灵的古老仪式，所以这个节日有驱走不好事物的活动。故选D项。 B Matt may have found his calling related to birds. He used to make puppets and is now a farming officer in Yorkshire, England. Matt drew a lot of attention over the weekend when he went into nature dressed as a giant bird. It wasn’t just any bird, but a 10-foot-long costume of the Eurasian curlew (白腰杓鹬), a large wading bird in Europe known for its long, thin beak and decreasing population. Over the weekend, Matt walked 53 miles (about 85 kilometers) along the Nidderdale Way to raise awareness about the curlew’s decline. Matt affectionately called the costume “Cathy the Curlew”. It was made out of polystyrene (聚苯乙烯) and bamboo. This unique challenge began on April 19, which is before World Curlew Day on April 21, which was created in 2017 to inform people about habitat loss, land-use changes, and climate change affecting the curlew. For Matt, this was as much an art project as it was a conservation effort. The journey took about two days. He started at Pateley Bridge on Saturday and finished at Brimham Rocks on Sunday. Along the way, news coverage and Matt’s talks with people he met helped spread the message to protect the curlew. The area where Matt hiked was once a main habitat for the curlews, but their population has significantly declined over the years. In 2015, the bird was added to the UK Red List for birds, indicating the highest conservation concern. “I’m really worried about the curlew,” Matt said. “Every nest, chick, and egg matters. We need around 10,000 more curlews each year to reach a sustainable (可持续的) population,” he added. “Curlews need to successfully raise one chick (雏鸟) every two years, but they usually don’t manage that from the four eggs they lay each year. One chick every two years is what we need to have a sustainable population, but we are far from that goal.” 4. Why did Matt choose to dress as a Eurasian curlew? A. To warn the public of the species’ decline. B. To promote puppet-making skills. C. To get people to know about curlews. D. To celebrate World Curlew Day. 5. How did Matt’s hike contribute to raising people’s awareness of curlews? A. By calling on volunteers to hike with him. B. By selling curlew costumes. C. Through activities held by news media. D. Through media reports and communication. 6. What can be inferred about the area where Matt hiked? A. Few curlews live there now. B. There used to be a large curlew population. C. The habitat there is completely destroyed. D. It experienced a massive increase in curlews. 7. What do Matt’s words in the last paragraph mean? A. The curlew population is sustainable. B. The curlew population increases slowly. C. Curlews should lay more eggs each year. D. Curlews are important for the ecosystem. 【答案】4. A 5. D 6. B 7. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。主要讲述Matt扮成白腰杓鹬徒步，以提高人们对其数量减少的关注。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Over the weekend, Matt walked 53 miles (about 85 kilometers) along the Nidderdale Way to raise awareness about the curlew’s decline.(上周末，Matt沿着尼德代尔步道走了53英里（约85公里），以提高人们对杓鹬数量减少的认识)”可知，Matt选择扮成白腰杓鹬是为了提醒公众该物种数量在减少。故选A项。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中的“Along the way, news coverage and Matt’s talks with people he met helped spread the message to protect the curlew.(一路上，新闻报道以及Matt与他遇到的人的交谈帮助传播了保护杓鹬的信息)”可知，Matt的徒步通过媒体报道和与人交流来提高人们对杓鹬的关注度。故选D项。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据第五段中的“The area where Matt hiked was once a main habitat for the curlews, but their population has significantly declined over the years.(Matt徒步的地区曾经是杓鹬的主要栖息地，但多年来它们的数量大幅减少)”可知，该地区曾经有大量的杓鹬。故选B项。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“Curlews need to successfully raise one chick (雏鸟) every two years, but they usually don’t manage that from the four eggs they lay each year. One chick every two years is what we need to have a sustainable population, but we are far from that goal.(杓鹬需要每两年成功养育一只雏鸟，但它们每年产四个蛋，通常也无法做到这一点。每两年一只雏鸟是我们拥有可持续种群所需要的，但我们离这个目标还很远)”可知，Matt的话意味着杓鹬的数量增长缓慢。故选B项。 C When children learn a musical instrument, one of the hardest things for a parent to do is encourage them to practice. But here’s something parents can use to give their kids a reason to try: A study has found that playing a musical instrument may lead to better brain health in later life. That might not be enough to encourage a child who has better things to do, but it’s good news for those who enjoy music. Researchers from the UK looked at data from an online survey of more than 1,000 people over the age of 40 who had been asked to talk about their musical experiences and exposure (暴露) to music during their lives. They were also given tasks that tested their memory and skills in things like planning and focusing. The study found that playing a musical instrument, especially the piano, was connected with better memory and thinking skills. And continuing to play an instrument into later life was found to have an even more salutary effect. Singing was related to better brain health in older age too. The research team suggested that the social factors that came with singing in a singing group may also have had an effect. One of the researchers, Anne Corbett, who is a professor of dementia (痴呆) research at the University of Exeter, said that encouraging older adults to return to music later in life could be a useful public health strategy. She said, “There is much evidence for the benefit of music group activities for individuals with dementia.” And she suggested that such activities could be used to reduce the risk of developing dementia. Of those who took part in the survey, 89% said they had played a musical instrument at some time in their lives, and about half still played one. Around seven out of ten said they had taken part in group singing. 8. Which is a benefit children learning musical instruments get according to the text? A Becoming famous. B. Getting courage to try new things. C. Obtaining the ability to do things well. D. Having better brain health in later life. 9. What does the underlined word “salutary” in paragraph 3 mean? A. Typical. B. Absolute. C. Positive. D. Sufficient. 10. According to Anne, how could music benefit older adults? A. It encourages them to sing more. B. It provides a relaxing mind in their free time. C. It lowers the chance of developing dementia. D. It helps them stay physically active. 11. What is the author’s purpose of writing the text? A. To explain the importance of a hobby. B. To describe that singing is good for health. C. To tell us what we should do in daily life. D. To encourage people to join in music activities. 【答案】8. D 9. C 10. C 11. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文，文章主要介绍了一项研究结果：演奏乐器可能会让孩子在以后的生活中更健康。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“A study has found that playing a musical instrument may lead to better brain health in later life.(一项研究发现，演奏乐器可能会让孩子在以后的生活中更健康)”可知，演奏乐器可能会让孩子在以后的生活中更健康，故选D。 【9题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第三段中“The study found that playing a musical instrument, especially the piano, was connected with better memory and thinking skills. And continuing to play an instrument into later life was found to have an even more salutary effect.(研究发现，演奏一种乐器，尤其是钢琴，与更好的记忆力和思维能力有关。研究发现，在晚年继续演奏一种乐器会产生更salutary效果)”以及下文“Singing was related to better brain health in older age too. (唱歌也与老年人更好的大脑健康有关)”可知，此处是描述演奏乐器的积极影响，even more salutary是和前面的better一致，指“在晚年继续演奏一种乐器会产生更有益的效果”，salutary意为“有益的，积极的”，故选C。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段最后一句“And she suggested that such activities could be used to reduce the risk of developing dementia.(她还建议，这些活动可以用来降低患痴呆症的风险)”可知，Anne认为音乐活动可以降低患痴呆症的风险，故选C。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据全文内容，结合第一段中“But here’s something parents can use to give their kids a reason to try: A study has found that playing a musical instrument may lead to better brain health in later life.(但这里有一些父母可以用来给孩子一个尝试的理由：一项研究发现，演奏乐器可能会让孩子在以后的生活中更健康)”和最后一段“Of those who took part in the survey, 89% said they had played a musical instrument at some time in their lives, and about half still played one. Around seven out of ten said they had taken part in group singing.(在参与调查的人中，89%的人说他们在生活中的某个时候玩过乐器，大约一半的人仍然在玩乐器。大约七成的人说他们参加过集体演唱)”可知，文章主要介绍了一项研究结果：演奏乐器可能会让孩子在以后的生活中更健康，所以作者的目的是鼓励人们加入音乐活动，故选D。 D If you’re reading this in bed on your phone, you’re not alone. Many people use their phones before and after bedtime, especially young adults and teens. Still, you might want to stop soon. Using screens before bed or in bed is believed to disrupt sleep, although the exact reasons are not completely clear. In a new study, researchers looked into this issue by using data from a large survey of 45,202 university students in Norway. They found that using screens in bed is linked to a 59 percent higher chance of insomnia (失眠) and can result in 24 minutes less sleep each night. “Sleep problems are very common among students and have serious effects on mental health, school performance, and overall well-being,” says Gunnhild Johnsen Hjetland, a clinical psychologist at the Norwegian Institute of Public Health. “Because so many people use screens in bed, we wanted to see how different screen activities affect sleep. We thought social media might be worse for sleep because it is interactive (互动的) and can motivate (激发) emotions.” However, the study found that using social media is no worse for sleep than other screen activities. The type of screen activity doesn’t matter as much as the total time spent using screens in bed. The researchers found no significant differences between social media and other screen activities. This suggests that using screens in general is the main cause of sleep problems, likely because it takes up time that could be used for resting. “If you have trouble sleeping and think screen time might be a cause, try to reduce the use of screen in bed, and stop using screens at least 30 to 60 minutes before sleep,” says Hjetland. “If you use screens, consider turning off notifications (通知) to reduce disruptions during the night.” 12. How does the author begin the argument? A. By listing different opinions. B. By referring to scientific data. C. By mentioning a common act. D. By analyzing cause and effect. 13. Why did researchers initially guess social media could affect sleep more? A. It contained violent content. B. It included emotional inspiration. C. It was entirely used by students. D. It required frequent physical interaction. 14. Which is the practical advice Hjetland provides? A. Avoiding using screen for a while before bed. B. Reading e-books instead of social media. C. Increasing daytime physical activity. D. Stopping using screens after supper. 15. What can be the best title for the text? A. Screen Time in Bed May Increase Sleeplessness B. Good Sleep Is Key to Students’ Performance C. Social Media Has the Worst Effect on Mental Health D. Reading on Phones Is Common Among Teens and Young Adults 【答案】12. C 13. B 14. A 15. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍研究发现睡前或在床上使用电子屏幕会干扰睡眠，且使用时长是主要影响因素。 【12题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段中的“If you’re reading this in bed on your phone, you’re not alone. Many people use their phones before and after bedtime, especially young adults and teens.(如果你正躺在床上用手机读这篇文章，你并不孤单。许多人在睡前和睡后使用手机，尤其是年轻人和青少年。)”可知，作者通过提及一种常见行为来展开论述。故选C项。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“We thought social media might be worse for sleep because it is interactive and can motivate emotions.(我们认为社交媒体对睡眠的影响可能更糟，因为它具有互动性，还能激发情绪。)”可知，研究人员最初猜测社交媒体对睡眠影响更大是因为它能激发情绪。故选B项。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段中的““If you have trouble sleeping and think screen time might be a cause, try to reduce the use of screen in bed, and stop using screens at least 30 to 60 minutes before sleep,” says Hjetland. (Hjetland说：‘如果你存在睡眠问题，且认为屏幕使用可能是原因之一，那就试着减少在床上使用屏幕的时间，并在睡前至少30到60分钟停止使用屏幕。’)”可知，Hjetland提供的实用建议是睡前一段时间避免使用电子屏幕。故选A项。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第二段中“They found that using screens in bed is linked to a 59 percent higher chance of insomnia and can result in 24 minutes less sleep each night.(他们发现，在床上使用电子屏幕会使失眠的几率增加59%，且每晚睡眠时间会减少24分钟。)”可知，文章主要围绕在床上使用电子屏幕可能增加失眠几率展开，因此“在床上使用电子屏幕可能增加失眠几率”可以概括文章主题，最适合作为本文标题。故选A项。 第二节 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 (共5小题;每小题2. 5分，满分12. 5分) How to Make and Keep a Budget（预算）?

B Matt may have found his calling related to birds. He used to make puppets and is now a farming officer in Yorkshire, England. Matt drew a lot of attention over the weekend when he went into nature dressed as a giant bird. It wasn’t just any bird, but a 10-foot-long costume of the Eurasian curlew (白腰杓鹬), a large wading bird in Europe known for its long, thin beak and decreasing population. Over the weekend, Matt walked 53 miles (about 85 kilometers) along the Nidderdale Way to raise awareness about the curlew’s decline. Matt affectionately called the costume “Cathy the Curlew”. It was made out of polystyrene (聚苯乙烯) and bamboo. This unique challenge began on April 19, which is before World Curlew Day on April 21, which was created in 2017 to inform people about habitat loss, land-use changes, and climate change affecting the curlew. For Matt, this was as much an art project as it was a conservation effort. The journey took about two days. He started at Pateley Bridge on Saturday and finished at Brimham Rocks on Sunday. Along the way, news coverage and Matt’s talks with people he met helped spread the message to protect the curlew. The area where Matt hiked was once a main habitat for the curlews, but their population has significantly declined over the years. In 2015, the bird was added to the UK Red List for birds, indicating the highest conservation concern. “I’m really worried about the curlew,” Matt said. “Every nest, chick, and egg matters. We need around 10,000 more curlews each year to reach a sustainable (可持续的) population,” he added. “Curlews need to successfully raise one chick (雏鸟) every two years, but they usually don’t manage that from the four eggs they lay each year. One chick every two years is what we need to have a sustainable population, but we are far from that goal.” 4. Why did Matt choose to dress as a Eurasian curlew? A. To warn the public of the species’ decline. B. To promote puppet-making skills. C. To get people to know about curlews. D. To celebrate World Curlew Day. 5. How did Matt’s hike contribute to raising people’s awareness of curlews? A. By calling on volunteers to hike with him. B. By selling curlew costumes. C. Through activities held by news media. D. Through media reports and communication. 6. What can be inferred about the area where Matt hiked? A. Few curlews live there now. B. There used to be a large curlew population. C. The habitat there is completely destroyed. D. It experienced a massive increase in curlews. 7. What do Matt’s words in the last paragraph mean? A. The curlew population is sustainable. B. The curlew population increases slowly. C. Curlews should lay more eggs each year. D. Curlews are important for the ecosystem. C When children learn a musical instrument, one of the hardest things for a parent to do is encourage them to practice. But here’s something parents can use to give their kids a reason to try: A study has found that playing a musical instrument may lead to better brain health in later life. That might not be enough to encourage a child who has better things to do, but it’s good news for those who enjoy music. Researchers from the UK looked at data from an online survey of more than 1,000 people over the age of 40 who had been asked to talk about their musical experiences and exposure (暴露) to music during their lives. They were also given tasks that tested their memory and skills in things like planning and focusing. The study found that playing a musical instrument, especially the piano, was connected with better memory and thinking skills. And continuing to play an instrument into later life was found to have an even more salutary effect. Singing was related to better brain health in older age too. The research team suggested that the social factors that came with singing in a singing group may also have had an effect. One of the researchers, Anne Corbett, who is a professor of dementia (痴呆) research at the University of Exeter, said that encouraging older adults to return to music later in life could be a useful public health strategy. She said, “There is much evidence for the benefit of music group activities for individuals with dementia.” And she suggested that such activities could be used to reduce the risk of developing dementia. Of those who took part in the survey, 89% said they had played a musical instrument at some time in their lives, and about half still played one. Around seven out of ten said they had taken part in group singing. 8. Which is a benefit children learning musical instruments get according to the text? A Becoming famous. B. Getting courage to try new things. C. Obtaining the ability to do things well. D. Having better brain health in later life. 9. What does the underlined word “salutary” in paragraph 3 mean? A. Typical. B. Absolute. C. Positive. D. Sufficient. 10. According to Anne, how could music benefit older adults? A It encourages them to sing more. B. It provides a relaxing mind in their free time. C. It lowers the chance of developing dementia. D. It helps them stay physically active. 11. What is the author’s purpose of writing the text? A. To explain the importance of a hobby. B. To describe that singing is good for health. C. To tell us what we should do in daily life. D. To encourage people to join in music activities. D If you’re reading this in bed on your phone, you’re not alone. Many people use their phones before and after bedtime, especially young adults and teens. Still, you might want to stop soon. Using screens before bed or in bed is believed to disrupt sleep, although the exact reasons are not completely clear. In a new study, researchers looked into this issue by using data from a large survey of 45,202 university students in Norway. They found that using screens in bed is linked to a 59 percent higher chance of insomnia (失眠) and can result in 24 minutes less sleep each night. “Sleep problems are very common among students and have serious effects on mental health, school performance, and overall well-being,” says Gunnhild Johnsen Hjetland, a clinical psychologist at the Norwegian Institute of Public Health. “Because so many people use screens in bed, we wanted to see how different screen activities affect sleep. We thought social media might be worse for sleep because it is interactive (互动的) and can motivate (激发) emotions.” However, the study found that using social media is no worse for sleep than other screen activities. The type of screen activity doesn’t matter as much as the total time spent using screens in bed. The researchers found no significant differences between social media and other screen activities. This suggests that using screens in general is the main cause of sleep problems, likely because it takes up time that could be used for resting. “If you have trouble sleeping and think screen time might be a cause, try to reduce the use of screen in bed, and stop using screens at least 30 to 60 minutes before sleep,” says Hjetland. “If you use screens, consider turning off notifications (通知) to reduce disruptions during the night.” 12. How does the author begin the argument? A. By listing different opinions. B. By referring to scientific data. C. By mentioning a common act. D. By analyzing cause and effect. 13. Why did researchers initially guess social media could affect sleep more? A. It contained violent content. B. It included emotional inspiration. C. It was entirely used by students. D. It required frequent physical interaction. 14. Which is the practical advice Hjetland provides? A. Avoiding using screen for a while before bed. B. Reading e-books instead of social media. C. Increasing daytime physical activity. D. Stopping using screens after supper. 15. What can be the best title for the text? A. Screen Time in Bed May Increase Sleeplessness B. Good Sleep Is Key to Students’ Performance C. Social Media Has the Worst Effect on Mental Health D. Reading on Phones Is Common Among Teens and Young Adults 第二节 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 (共5小题;每小题2. 5分，满分12. 5分) How to Make and Keep a Budget（预算）? What Is a Budget? ____16____.
