A.It promoted the sales of artworks. B.It attracted a large number of visitors. C.It showed ancient Chinese clothes. D.It aimed to introduce Chinese models. 答案：B 24 25 26 27 解析：推理判断题。由题干中的the exhibition in New York可定位到原文第三段。本段中并没有提到这次展览促进了艺术品的销售，也没有提到展示了中国古代的服装，故排除A、C两项；由本段中的“The exhibition had record attendance，showing that there is huge interest in Chinese influences.(此次展览吸引参观者人数创下纪录，显示出人们对中国影响的浓厚兴趣)”可知，B项表述正确；由本段中的“...with the aim of exploring the influence of Chinese aesthetics on Western fashion and how China has fueled the fashionable imagination for centuries.(……旨在探索中国美学对西方时尚的影响，以及几个世纪以来中国是如何激发时尚想象力的)”可知，这次展览的目的不是介绍中国模特儿，故排除D项。 24 25 26 27 25.What does Hill say about Chinese women? A.They are setting the fashion. B.They start many fashion campaigns. C.They admire super models. D.They do business all over the world. 答案：A 24 25 26 27 解析：推理判断题。由原文第四段中Hill说的“Chinese women are not just consumers of fashion—they are central to its movement(中国女性不仅是时尚的消费者——她们是这场运动的核心)”可以推断出，她们正在引领潮流，故选A项。 24 25 26 27 26.What do the underlined words “taking on” in paragraph 4 mean? A.learning from　 B.looking down on C.working with D.competing against 答案：D 解析：词义猜测题。由画线词后面的“beating them hands down in design and sales(在设计和销售方面轻而易举地击败他们)”可知，take on此处意为“与……较量”，故选D项“competing against”。learn from向……学习；look down on轻视，瞧不起；work with与……共事。 24 25 26 27 27.What can be a suitable title for the text? A.Young Models Selling Dreams to the World B.A Chinese Art Exhibition Held in New York C.Differences Between Eastern and Western Aesthetics D.Chinese Culture Fueling International Fashion Trends 答案：D 24 25 26 27 解析：标题归纳题。通读全文可知，文章的第一段就点明了主题：对于西方设计师来说，长期以来，中国及其丰富的文化一直是西方创作者的灵感来源。接下来Amanda Hill对中国文化和中国美学对国际时尚的影响进行了评价，由此可知，中国文化推动了国际时尚潮流，故D项作为文章的标题最合适。 Part 1　词汇 (一)词汇识记 1. __________ n.秘密 2. __________ adj.不可能的 3. __________ n.活动；战役 4. __________ n.方向 5. ____________ adj.时髦的 6. __________ n.参加；参与 secret impossible campaign direction fashionable attendance 7. __________ v.忽视；俯视 8. ______________ adj.当代的 9. __________ n.市场 10. _____________ adj.激动人心的 11. _____________ v.认可；承认 12.center n.中心→__________ adj.中心的 13.globe n.地球；地球仪→__________ adj.全球的 overlook contemporary market breathtaking acknowledge central global (二)熟词生义(写出句中黑体词的词性和汉语意思) 1....with the aim of exploring the influence of Chinese aesthetics on Western fashion and how China has fueled the fashionable imagination for centuries.(fuel基本义：n.燃料) _________________ 2.The exhibition had record attendance，showing that there is huge interest in Chinese influences.(record基本义：n.& v.记录，记载) _______________ v.刺激；加强 adj.破纪录的 18 3.“Vera Wang，Alexander Wang，Jason Wu are taking on Galliano，Albaz，Marc Jacobs—and beating them hands down in design and sales，” adds Hill.(take on基本义：呈现出) _________________ 接受……的挑战 19 (三)词块积累 1.beat them hands down __________________ 2.with the aim of exploring the influence of Chinese aesthetics ________________________ 3.a large number of visitors _________________ 很容易击败他们 旨在探究中国美学的影响 大量的参观者 ①A policeman stood in the middle of the road，directing the traffic. __________ ②The small town of Rjukan in Norway is situated between several mountains and does not get direct sunlight from late September to mid-March. __________ ③The film directed by Jack is popular with young people.__________ direction n.方向，方位；指示；说明书 (四)词汇精研 vt.指挥 adj.直接的 vt.导演 21 ④I’d appreciate it if you can direct me to the nearest cinema. _________________ ⑤咱们从一个不同的角度来探讨这个题目吧。 Let us approach the subject _______________________.  vt.给(某人)指路 from a different direction •direct vt.& vi.导演；指示；指挥 adj.直的；直接的；直率的 adv.直接地 direct sb.to do sth.指示/命令某人做某事 •in the direction of朝……方向 in all directions朝四面八方 •directly adv.直接地；径直地conj.一……就…… directory n.名录；电话号码簿；(计算机文件或程序的)目录 23 ◎写作素材 be directed to give special attention to the problem of poverty得到指示要特别关注贫困问题 lose all sense of direction in her life完全丧失了生活的方向 24 Part 2　句型 长难句分析 1.Chinese models are the faces of beauty and fashion campaigns that sell dreams to women all over the world，which means Chinese women are not just consumers of fashion—they are central to its movement. [结构分析]　本句是一个主从复合句。句中that sell dreams to women all over the world是that引导的定语从句；which means Chinese women are not just consumers of fashion是which引导的非限制性定语从句，which指代前面的内容。 [尝试翻译]　______________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________ 中国模特是向全世界女性推销梦想的美丽和时尚活动的代言人，这意味着中国女性不仅是时尚的消费者——她们是时尚运动的核心。 25 2.“Vera Wang，Alexander Wang，Jason Wu are taking on Galliano，Albaz，Marc Jacobs—and beating them hands down in design and sales，” adds Hill. [结构分析]　本句是一个简单句。beating前面省略了系动词are，are taking on和are beating them hands down是并列谓语。 [尝试翻译]　______________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________________ 希尔补充说：“王薇薇、王大仁和吴佳森正在与加利亚诺、阿尔巴兹以及马克·雅可布进行较量，前者将在设计和销售方面轻而易举地击败他们。” 26 Passage 2　阅读七选五(2021·新高考Ⅰ卷) 　　[语篇解读]　本文是一篇记叙文。作者通过亲身经历，体验了巴黎人的生活方式，不仅有昂贵的公寓、美味的食物，还有舒缓的生活节奏和令世人羡慕的35小时周工作制。 27 　　My husband and I just spent a week in Paris. 　36　 So the first thing we did was rent a fantastically expensive sixth-floor apartment the size of a cupboard.It was so tiny that we had to leave our suitcases in the hallway.  A.Not all the customers are tourists.

G.The food is so delicious that you don’t need much of it to make you happy. 39.答案：E 解析：上一段介绍了法国人吃得少的一个原因，本段继续说另一个原因，故选项E承上启下。 39 In France，quality of life is much more important than efficiency (效率).You can tell this by café life.French cafés are always crowded.　40　 When do these people work? The French take their 35-hour workweek seriously—so seriously that some labor unions recently struck a deal with a group of companies limiting the number of hours that independent contractors can be on call.  A.Not all the customers are tourists.

G.The food is so delicious that you don’t need much of it to make you happy. 40.答案：A 解析：结合下句，作者提出“When do these people work?”的疑问，暗示这里的顾客并不都是游客，很多是法国人，因此，A项符合语境。 42 Part 1　词汇 (一)词汇识记 1. ____________ adv.难以置信地，奇特地 2. __________ n.碗柜，橱柜 3. __________ adj.真实的，真正的 4. __________ adj.女性的，雌性的 5. __________ v.掌握 6. __________ v.指出 fantastically cupboard authentic female master note 7. __________ n.一周的工作时间，工作周 8.normal adj.典型的，一般的→__________ adj.不正常的，反常的→__________ adv.正常地；通常地 9.equal adj.平等的 v.等于，比得上→__________ adv.平等地；同样地→__________ n.平等，相等→__________ n.不平等 workweek abnormal normally equally equality inequality (二)熟词生义(写出句中黑体词的词性和汉语意思) 1.That is the only French phrase I mastered，and it’s a shame I don’t have much use for it.(shame基本义：n.羞愧；羞耻)_______________ 2.The amazing food is mainly consumed by local farmers.(consume基本义：vt.消费；消耗) __________ n.令人惋惜的事 v.吃，喝 45 (三)词块积累 1.gain weight __________ 2.a handful of perfectly ripe small strawberries _____________________ 3.take their 35-hour workweek seriously __________________________________ 4.strike a deal with a group of companies ____________________ 5.on call __________________ 6.in some way _______________ 增加体重 一把完全成熟的小草莓 认真对待他们每周35小时的工作时间 与一组公司达成协议 待命，随叫随到 在某种程度上 46 ①The professor could tell __________ the blank look in Mary’s eyes that she didn’t understand a single word of his lecture. ②Under the circumstances，it seemed better not to tell him _________ the accident. ③The twins are so alike；it’s difficult to tell the difference _________ them. 1 tell sth.by sth.通过某事看出某事 (四)词汇精研 by about between 47 ④You can tell __________ his blue eyes that he isn’t native to China. ⑤Our teachers always tell us ____________ (believe) in what we do and who we are if we want to succeed.  ⑥那些男孩子太吵，我把他们训斥了一顿。 I _________________ for making so much noise.  from to believe told the boys off tell the difference (between...and...)辨别/区分(……与……) tell sb./sth.from sb./sth.把……与……区分开来 tell sb.sth./tell sth.to sb./tell sb.+that 从句/wh-从句　告诉某人…… tell sb.to do sth.吩咐某人做某事 tell off 斥责，责骂 49 ◎写作素材 tell you something about how we observe the Spring Festival 告诉你一些关于我们怎么庆祝春节的事 whether you tell them or not不论你是否告诉他们 tell a lie/story/joke说谎/讲故事/讲笑话 to tell the truth说实话，老实说 50 ①Last month，thousands of workers in that city went __________ strike to get a pay rise. ②There was something so __________ (strike) about it that I returned time and again to look at it. ③__________ strikes me that nobody is in favour of the changes. ④约翰突然想到他们可以在电影院门口卖爆米花。 _________________________ they could sell popcorn at the entrance to the cinema.  2 strike v.(struck，struck)划(火柴)；罢工；敲；击打；侵袭；给……以印象；突然想起 n.罢工；打击 on striking It It suddenly struck John that 51 •be struck with/by被……所袭击/感动 It strikes sb.that...某人觉得……；某人突然想起…… strike...into one’s heart使……刻骨铭心；使某人感到…… •be on strike在罢工 go on strike举行罢工 •striking adj.显著的；突出的 ◎写作素材 deeply struck by the reports in the newspaper被报纸上的报道深深触动 strikingly beautiful美得出奇 Part 2　句型 长难句分析 1.That is the only French phrase I mastered，and it’s a shame I don’t have much use for it. [结构分析] I mastered是the only French phrase的定语从句，其前面省略了关系代词that；it’s a shame中的it是形式主语，I don’t have much use for it是真正的主语。 [尝试翻译] _______________________________________________ 那是我掌握的唯一的法语短语，可惜我并不经常使用。 54 2.French strawberries do not taste like cardboard.Instead，they explode in your mouth like little flavor bombs.

Passage 3　阅读七选五(2022·全国甲卷) 　　[语篇解读]　本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了在不同国家就餐时需要注意的一些事情，如餐具的使用和如何发出请求等。 Important Things to Know When Dining Out Cultural dining etiquette (礼节) might surprise you with some of its

you make a mess around your plate F.Never stick them upright in your food or cross them as you use them G.It may seem like a simple request to ask for salt and pepper at a meal 36.答案：D 解析：空前一句讲到了“与文化有关的用餐礼仪中的一些重要规则可能会让你大为惊讶”，空后一句则讲到了“知道一些窍门儿有助于确保你用餐愉快”。因此，空处应该是讲不要让人发现你在餐馆犯了一个令人尴尬的错误，故D项符合语境。 Chopstick Rules The way you handle chopsticks is important to avoid annoying your companions.When you put them down between bites，always put them down together so they are parallel with the edge of the table in front of you.　37　.  A.The more friends you make in your lifetime B.The

Chile...in Thailand...their spoons.”可知，空处讲到的应该也是某个国家的风俗，选项中符合语境的只有C项，且C项与空后的“instead preferring to use their hands”形成对比，故C项符合语境。 Making Requests 　39　.In Portugal，this would be a serious mistake，because it shows the chef that you don’t like their seasoning skills.Similarly，in Italy，never ask for extra cheese to add to your food.  A.The more friends you make in your lifetime B.The more

countries.　40　，the more comfortable you’ll begin to feel with its foreign cultural practices.  A.The more friends you make in your lifetime B.The more time you spend in any given country C.Mexicans

comfortable...practices”可知，此处考查的是固定句型“the+比较级，the+比较级”，由此锁定选项A和B。结合语境可知，此处表述的是“你在上述任何一个国家待的时间越长，你就会对它的文化习俗感到越自在”，故B项符合语境。 Part 1　词汇 (一)词汇识记 1. __________ adj.令人愉快的 2. __________ adj.特定的 3. __________

巩固提升 Ⅰ.阅读理解(每小题2.5分，共20分) A (2024·浙江金丽衢十二校联考)In February 2022，I began learning Chinese.Almost a year later，I found myself in Beijing，the capital of China.Before coming here，I had attended Chinese classes，and I could sense my progress in the language，albeit modest.As you might expect，studying for just one year wasn’t sufficient to claim fluency，and to be honest，I’m not there yet.But full proficiency in the language is not necessary to immerse yourself in and enjoy many attractions of life in China. The one thing that truly makes me feel comfortable and alleviates loneliness is making friends and engaging in conversation.At Tsinghua University，where I pursued my studies in China，I made friends with many Chinese young people and relished spending time with them，be it for meals or leisure activities.I’ve been delighted to sing Chinese songs with my friends.I would also sing well-known Japanese songs，such as Lemon，which is very popular in China.I felt that connecting with my Chinese peers through a shared passion，such as singing，was incredibly enjoyable and beautiful.It transcended language barriers and fostered a sense of unity and joy that was truly special. During breaks from study，I frequently embarked on solo journeys across China.Although I have experienced traveling on overnight trains for over 12 hours several times and explored unfamiliar cities，I never felt fearful or unwelcome as a foreigner.Chinese people are consistently warm and welcoming to foreigners，and eager to engage in conversation. I once participated in community activities in northwest China’s Gansu Province to gain a deeper understanding of China’s rural areas and contribute to the development of local communities and education.As a volunteer teacher at a local school，I shared contemporary and traditional Japanese culture such as anime，architecture，pop music and languages with the students.Since Japanese kanji originated in China，there are many similarities between the Japanese and Chinese languages. 　　[语篇解读]　本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要介绍作者来中国学习、旅行和工作的经历，讲述了其所见所闻所感。 1.What is necessary for the author to enjoy attractions of life in China? (　　) A.Having proficiency in Chinese. B.Befriending foreign tourists. C.Setting out on solo journeys alone. D.Communicating with Chinese locals. 1 2 3 4 D 解析：细节理解题。根据第二段中的“The one thing that truly...making friends and engaging in conversation”可知，真正让作者感到舒适和减轻孤独的一件事是交朋友并参与到交谈之中。文中的“feel comfortable”与题干中的“enjoy attractions of life”表达意思吻合，因此可推断，与中国当地人交流是作者享受中国生活魅力的必要条件。故选D。 1 2 3 4 2.What does the underlined word “relished” in paragraph 2 mean? (　　) A.Advocated.　　　　　　 B.Enjoyed. C.Postponed. D.Avoided. 1 2 3 4 B 解析：词义猜测题。 根据画线词上文的“I made friends with many Chinese young people and”以及下文“spending time with them，be it for meals or leisure activities”可知，作者结交了许多中国的年轻朋友，并花时间与他们在一起，无论是吃饭还是进行休闲活动，由此可推断作者应该是开心、享受的。故画线词的意思是“享受”，与B项意思一致。advocate“提倡”，postpone “推迟”，avoid“避免”。 1 2 3 4 3.How did the author develop the text?(　　) A.By listing numbers. B.By giving examples. C.By making comparison. D.By setting questions. 1 2 3 4 B 解析：推理判断题。文章中作者通过分享自己在中国学习、旅行的经历，以及在中国甘肃社区活动中的具体例子来展开论述。由此可推知，作者通过举例来展开文章。故选B。 4.What is the author’s impression of Chinese people?(　　) A.Hospitable. B.Cautious. C.Punctual. D.Smart. 1 2 3 4 A 解析：细节理解题。 倒数第二段谈到作者对中国人的看法“Chinese people are consistently warm and welcoming to foreigners，and eager to engage in conversation.”。由此可知，作者对中国人的印象是好客的。故选A。cautious“小心的，谨慎的”，punctual “守时的”，smart“聪明的”。 B 　　(2024·河南适应性测试)Why do we find ugly animals so appealing? And what makes odd-looking creatures so cute? 　　Evolution (进化) plays a role.According to Austrian zoologist Konrad Lorenz，human attraction to childish features，such as big eyes，large heads and soft bodies，is an evolutionary adaptation that helps ensure that adults care for their young，guaranteeing the survival of their species.Odd-looking animals such as blobfish，pugs，and bulldogs all share these childish qualities that initiate an affectionate response among humans.And these childish characteristics increase a person’s “protective behavior，attention and willingness to care” for the individual and reduce the “likelihood of attacks towards a child”，says Marta Borgi，a researcher. 　　Ugly animals often have other values—some，like the blobfish or the naked mole rat，live in extreme environments that they have adapted to in remarkable ways.Scientists are keen to study these animals to understand whether their biology might provide fresh insights that could lead to treatments for human health conditions such as cancer，heart disease and other deadly diseases. 　　Our fascination with ugly-cute animals can also be traced back to culturally-based causes.“The ugly-cute thing is very fashionable，” says Rowena Packer，a lecturer of animal behavior.“This is partly driven by social media，with many influential people showing off pet pugs and French bulldogs on the Internet，” she says. 　　But there are some serious welfare concerns around this trend.Vets are urging people not to choose a flat-faced dog，because they suffer from serious health problems.Pugs and French bulldogs which have been selectively produced experience breathing difficulties，repeated skin infections and eye diseases. 　　We may want to rethink our love for “ugly-cute” animals because of their silly features like protruding (鼓出的) eyes and wrinkly faces. 　　[语篇解读]　本文是一篇议论文。文章通过引用几位研究员的调查结果，从进化角度、社会文化角度和生存角度阐述了人类喜爱“丑萌”动物的原因。作者在文章最后从健康角度对人类的这一喜爱提出了建议。 5.Why do people like ugly animals according to Konrad Lorenz?(　　) A.People appreciate their efforts to survive. B.People appreciate their super adaptability. C.People are attracted by their childish looks. D.People are fond of their fast response speed. 5 6 7 8 C 解析：细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Evolution plays a role...human attraction to childish features...is an evolutionary adaptation”和“Odd-looking animals...share these childish qualities”可知，Konrad Lorenz认为人们之所以被吸引，是因为这类丑动物的幼稚特征。由此可知，人们喜爱丑动物的原因是被它们幼稚的外表吸引。故选C项。 6.What is paragraph 4 mainly about?(　　) A.Why the media can influence people. B.How public practices influence people. C.Whether social media is worth believing. D.Why celebrities show off their pet animals. 5 6 7 8 B 解析：段落大意题。根据第四段的内容可知，人类对“丑萌”动物的喜爱也有文化方面的原因。在一定程度上，社交媒体起了推动作用，如许多有影响力的人会在网上炫耀他们的“丑萌”的宠物。由此可推知，本段主要讲述公众的活动是如何影响人们对“丑萌”动物的看法的。故选B项。 7.What’s the author’s attitude towards people’s love for ugly animals? (　　) A.Opposed.　　　　　　 B.Supportive. C.Indifferent. D.Cautious. 5 6 7 8 D 解析：观点态度题。文章第二至四段分别从进化角度、生存角度和社会文化角度阐述了人类喜爱“丑萌”动物的原因，但作者在文章最后两段从健康角度对人类的这一喜爱提出了建议和提醒——重新思考对“丑萌”动物的喜爱。由此可推知，作者对人们喜爱“丑萌”动物的态度是十分谨慎的。故选D项。 126 8.How does the author mainly answer the questions raised in paragraph 1?(　　) A.By quoting different researchers’ findings. B.By showing some examples of keeping pets. C.By observing people’s behavior towards animals. D.By referring to authoritative evolutionary theory. 5 6 7 8 A 解析：推理判断题。根据第一段的问题可以将答案定位到第二段中的“According to Austrian zoologist Konrad Lorenz”和“says Marta Borgi，a researcher”以及第四段中的“says Rowena Packer，a lecturer of animal behavior”。这几处都是研究人员的调查发现。故选A项。 5 6 7 8 Ⅱ.阅读七选五(每小题2.5分，共12.5分) 　　[语篇解读]　本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍练习太极拳的五点好处。 129 　　(2024·吉林三模)Tai Chi，a gentle martial art originating in China and involving slow movements with a focus on breathing and on what your body is doing in that moment，provides numerous benefits for both physical and mental well-being.Here are five convincing reasons to bring Tai Chi into your routine. •It’s easy on the body. Tai Chi offers gentle exercise suitable for individuals of all ages and fitness levels.1(　　)，as muscles remain relaxed without any stretching or straining.It’s an exercise that can be easily adapted for less able people，including those in wheelchairs.  A.It has the feel-good factor B.It can improve heart health C.The benefits aren’t just physical D.But there are videos available online too E.It also improve flexibility and spatial awareness F.Its low-impact nature minimizes the risk of joint injury G.You can share experiences with these people face-to-face 1.答案：F 解析：段中句设空主要从上下文的衔接入手。空后半句提到“因为肌肉在没有拉伸或绷紧的情况下保持放松”，这是对空处内容的原因解释。根据小标题“It’s easy on the body”和空前的“Tai Chi offers gentle exercise”可知，空处应该与太极拳舒缓的运动有关。故F项“它的低冲击特性最大程度地降低了关节损伤的风险”符合语境。选项中的Its是上文Tai Chi的形容词性物主代词。 •It could prevent falls. A review of studies conducted in 2019 indicated that Tai Chi could lower the risk of falls among older people.Certainly，the emphasis is on balance，with sideways and backwards movements aiding in the strengthening of the muscles necessary for stability.2(　　).  A.It has the feel-good factor B.It can improve heart health C.The benefits aren’t just physical D.But there are videos available online too E.It also improve flexibility and spatial awareness F.Its low-impact nature minimizes the risk of joint injury G.You can share experiences with these people face-to-face 2.答案：E 解析：根据小标题“它可以防止摔倒”以及空前提到的“(太极拳的)重点在于平衡，侧身和后向的动作有助于加强肌肉的稳定性”可知，空处应该进一步说明练太极拳可以防止摔倒的原因，所以E项“它还提高了灵活性和空间意识”符合语境。E项中的It指代上文的Tai Chi。 •It may boost brain power. 3(　　).Research shows that practicing Tai Chi on a regular basis can enhance cognitive abilities in older adults，both those with and without memory issues.Given that it’s considered safe and suitable for the elderly，this is a definite win.  A.It has the feel-good factor B.It can improve heart health C.The benefits aren’t just physical D.But there are videos available online too E.It also improve flexibility and spatial awareness F.Its low-impact nature minimizes the risk of joint injury G.You can share experiences with these people face-to-face 3.答案：C 解析：分析语篇结构，并结合本段对应小标题“太极拳可以提升脑力”可知，文章给出的练太极拳的五个原因中，前两个是身体方面的好处，第三个开始介绍它的其他优点。所以C项“好处不仅限于身体上的”，呼应上文和本段小标题，并且与下文中的“enhance cognitive abilities in older adults(提升老年人的认知能力)”衔接紧密。 •4(　　).  A reduction in stress and anxiety，along with an increase in confidence，is another mental health benefit of Tai Chi，as indicated by research findings，though further research is needed to comprehensively understand and confirm these effects. A.It has the feel-good factor B.It can improve heart health C.The benefits aren’t just physical D.But there are videos available online too E.It also improve flexibility and spatial awareness F.Its low-impact nature minimizes the risk of joint injury G.You can share experiences with these people face-to-face 4.答案：A 解析：段落主旨句。下文提到“太极拳的另一个心理健康益处是减轻压力和焦虑，并增加信心”，所以此处小标题应是点明太极拳对心理产生的影响。A项“它有让人们感觉良好的因素”和心理健康相呼应。 •You can do it at home. Attending classes can be beneficial for receiving structured instruction and connecting with like-minded individuals.5(　　)，providing an alternative for practicing at home.You’re bound to find one that matches your fitness level and exercise preferences.Practicing Tai Chi at home can also offer unparalleled convenience and flexibility.  A.It has the feel-good factor B.It can improve heart health C.The benefits aren’t just physical D.But there are videos available online too E.It also improve flexibility and spatial awareness F.Its low-impact nature minimizes the risk of joint injury G.You can share experiences with these people face-to-face 5.答案：D 解析：本段第一句提到练习太极拳可以去参加线下课程。结合段落小标题“你可以在家练太极拳”可知，本段主要讲如何可以在家练习太极拳。D项“但网上也有视频可供观看”，即不需要参加线下课程，在家可以通过网上视频进行练习，契合本段小标题，与上文内容形成转折关系。 Ⅲ.语法填空(每小题1.5分，共15分) 　　(2024·贵州贵阳二模) When Zhao Shuxian started working at an art and craft factory in 1973，the 19-year-old was given the job of 1 __________ (master) the time-honored craft of making “velvet” flowers from silk.

Ⅱ.读后续写——人间亲情(满分25分) 　　阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。 　　(2024·河北石家庄教学质检二)When he was around 5 years old，my brother Ted，who is four years younger than me，suddenly found his legs unable to move one night.What followed was one of the hardest times of my parents’ life.Months passed with them meeting various doctors，visiting different hospitals，and knocking at the doorstep of every possible chance—all the time with Ted in their arms，since he wasn’t able to walk on his own anymore. There were doubts of permanent paralysis (瘫痪)—the very mention of which was enough to break us down.From finding it extremely painful to walk，to not being able to get up on his own，and to not being able to stand at all，Ted had a problem that was worsening day by day.Most surprisingly，all this while，he was strong.Perhaps only children could be in such difficult times. During this period，it was not unusual for my mother to have sudden breakdowns. Once，she burst into tears while watching Ted playing joyfully.He wiped off her tears，and said，“Don’t cry，Mummy.See，I can stand and even run on my own!”Saying this，he tried to get up，stood on shaking legs for just about a few microseconds and fell down，only to be safely caught in the arms of my mom，who hugged him dearly and cried again. This was the most heartbreaking thing that I had ever experienced. But it was also a powerful one for the simple fact that it was my little brother who taught us what life was all about—HOPE. Witnessing my brother’s strong will and positive attitude inspired me as well.As a brother，I could not stand by doing nothing at all.Hope was burning in my heart when I had the idea to train my brother to walk again.I firmly believed Ted could stand up and walk as he used to.Whenever school was over，I would put Ted into a pushchair and tell my mom that we’d just go to the park. 注意：续写词数应为150个左右。 In the park，I would put Ted one meter away from me，encouraging him to walk._____________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ At first，he could not even move an inch without falling down.But instead of getting discouraged，he would keep trying until he finally managed to take a few steps forward with the support of my hands.Gradually，Ted learned to balance himself and began to walk slowly but steadily.The park became our secret place where we spent hours every day，I patiently guiding him and Ted determinedly working on his mobility.  We agreed to keep this secret from our parents until Mom’s birthday.___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ On that day，while everyone was enjoying a family lunch，Ted suddenly stood up from his chair and took a few unsteady steps towards our mother.Her eyes widened as she watched her son，who had been unable to walk for some time，now taking small，confident steps towards her，which was such a heartwarming moment for all of us.From that day on，Ted’s progress was nothing short of a miracle，and our family was overjoyed to see him regaining his strength and mobility.  $$
