A．the; the B．a; a C．the; a D．a; the 【答案】C 【详解】句意：我喜欢这件衣服的颜色，因为红色和白色很相配。 考查冠词。a不定冠词，表泛指，用于以辅音音素开头的单词前；an不定冠词，表泛指，用于以元音音素开头的单词前；the定冠词，表特指；/零冠词。故the colour表示特定的颜色；a good match“十分般配”，名词短语。故选C。 2．The song is wonderful and can cheer us up, I think it is worth ________. A．listening B．being listened to C．listening to D．being listened 【答案】C 【详解】句意：这首歌很棒，可以让我们振作起来，我认为值得一听。 考查固定搭配。根据“be worth doing sth.”是一种主动形式表示被动含义的结构，以及“listen to music”可知，listening to符合句意。故选C。 3．— What do you think of your English teacher? — She is very kind, but always ________ with us in everything. A．strict B．hard-working C．patient D．creative 【答案】A 【详解】句意：——你认为你的英语老师怎么样？——她很友善，但总是对我们要求严格。 考查形容词辨析。strict严格的；hard-working努力工作的；patient有耐心的；creative有创造力的。根据上文“kind”和“but”提示，此处存在转折，即她人很友善，但对我们却很严格，be strict with意为“对……要求严格”。符合句意，故选A。 4．Not only his parents but also his brother ________ to the Great Wall twice. A．have been B．have gone C．has been D．has gone 【答案】C 【详解】句意：不仅他的父母他的兄弟也去过长城两次。 考查现在完成时及就近原则。have/has gone to指去了某地，说话时人没有回来；have/has been to去过某地。根据twice可知，时态用现在完成时，结构为have/has+done，not only...but also连接并列主语时，谓语动词遵循“就近原则”，his brother为单数形式，助动词用has，根据twice可知，应该是去过已经回来。故选C。 5．“She’s generally thoughtful and easy to get along with, but you’d better get out of her way when she sees red!” What does the underlined part mean? A．She wears red. B．She is hurt. C．She does something terrible. D．She is angry. 【答案】D 【详解】句意：“她通常很体贴，容易相处，但要是她发起火来，你最好还是躲远点！”划线部分是什么意思？ 考查常识。She wears red她穿红色的衣服；She is hurt她受伤了；She does something terrible她做了可怕的事情；She is angry她生气了。根据“but you’d better get out of her way when she sees red!”可知划线部分意思是“她生气了”，故选D。 6．Could you tell me ________ a football match in the Moonlight Sports Center tomorrow? A．whether there is going to be B．whether there is going to have C．if there was going to be D．if is there going to be 【答案】A 【详解】句意：你能告诉我明天月光体育中心是否有足球比赛吗？ 考查宾语从句。宾语从句中需用陈述语序，且根据“tomorrow”可知应用将来时态，此题含有there的一般将来时结构为there is going to be。选项A“whether there is going to be”符合时态和语序，故选A。 7．I don’t doubt ________ he can do the job well,  but I doubt ________ he can fi nish it on time. A．if; that B．that; whether C．whether; if D．that; that 【答案】B 【详解】句意：我不怀疑他能把工作做好，但我怀疑他是否能按时完成。 考查宾语从句的引导词。在否定句和疑问句中，doubt后接that引导的宾语从句；在肯定句中，doubt后一般接whether/if引导的宾语从句。第一空所在句为否定句，所以用that；第二空所在句为肯定句，且表示“是否”，所以用whether。故选B。 8．His uncle would rather ___________ the old bike than ___________a new one. A．repair, to buy B．to repair, buy C．repair, buy D．to repair, to buy 【答案】C 【详解】句意：他舅舅宁愿修旧自行车也不买新的。 考查非谓语动词。固定搭配：would rather…than…“宁愿做……而不愿做……”，故选C。 9．Friendship is ________ wine. It gets better as it grows older. A．as soon as B．as good as C．as well as D．as long as 【答案】B 【详解】句意：友谊像美酒一样好，我们保持的时间越长，就会越有味道。 考查同级比较的用法。as soon as 一……就；as good as和……一样好；as well as和……一样好；as long as只要。此处友谊和美酒作比较，表示两者是一样好的，此处空格中缺少形容词作表语，故用as good as，选B。 10．—Cooking helps us show love to family members. —________. Every time I make dishes for Mum, she is very happy. A．Take it easy B．I can’t believe it C．That’s not the case D．I couldn’t agree more 【答案】D 【详解】句意：——烹饪帮助我们表达对家庭成员的爱。——我完全同意。每次我给妈妈做饭，她都很开心。 考查情景交际。Take it easy意为“放轻松”；I can’t believe it意为“我不相信”；That’s not the case意为“情况不是这样的”；I couldn’t agree more意为“我完全同意”。根据“Every time I make dishes for Mum, she is very happy.”可知，后者同意前者的说法，故选D。 二、完形填空（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 请认真阅读下列短文，从短文后各题所给的 A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 In our neighborhood, there used to be a beggar（乞丐）who would walk from one house to another to beg for food and money.

It changed when I met Lizzie and her horse at twelve. One afternoon, I saw Lizzie looking up at a life-sized sculpture horse. “It needs a rider,” she turned to me. “Would you be the rider, Bonny?” “I can’t.” “You can ride bikes. It’s not that different. You’d just sit there. I’d sketch(画素描) you, sculpt you.“Later, I tried to sit on the horse. It felt strange up there — much higher than on bikes. I came every day after that. I looked forward to mixing up the plaster and holding it for Lizzie. I liked that. She was sculpting me up, little by little. After a few days’ work, I became the rider on the horse. It was me inside that skeleton. When it was finished, I could hardly take my eyes off the magnificent horse and rider. “Well,” said Lizzie. “What do you think, Bonny?” “I just wish I could make a sculpture,” I whispered, touching the neck of the horse. “You did, Bonny,” she said.“Without your help, I couldn’t have done it. Do you want to make a sculpture yourself?” “I can’t.” “Of course you can. But you have to look around, really look. Draw what you see. Make what you’ve sketched. You can have a corner of my studio. How’s that?” I followed her words and set to make my small sculpture, layer on layer. The more I did, the more I felt I belonged to this new world. With growing interest, I kept sculpting. ______ . Lizzie was working in the studio too. For minutes, a neck or leg would suddenly come to life. “When you do it, it’s like magic,”I said. She replied,“No, Bonny. Not magic. It’s a given thing, a talent from who knows where, who knows who. But once you discover you have it, whatever it is, it’s not to be wasted. Life’s too short to waste it.” Then came my summer holiday. I drew every day, boats, gulls and fishermen. I made sculptures with wet sand. My parents seemed surprised at my new interest. I never had such a perfect holiday. Months later, a cardboard arrived to me in a post. It was of me sitting on the horse. So here I am, twenty years on, working as a sculptor. As I look out from my sculpture studio window, I see Lizzie’s Horse and Rider and all around my sculptures are gathered. Magic life, I think. 26．What did Lizzie ask Bonny to do? A．To mix up her plaster. B．To be her sculpture’s rider. C．To ride bikes with her. D．To have a look at her horse. 27．Which of the following sentences can be put into the ______ in the passage? A．I felt afraid to show Lizzie my work B．I also started to have my own studio C．I was able to sculpt better than Lizzie D．I was never happier with what I’d done 28．Why did Bonny keep Lizzie’s Horse and Rider for twenty years? A．Because it reminded Bonny of her childhood. B．Because it started Bonny’s career as a sculptor. C．Because it encouraged Bonny to solve problems. D．Because it taught Bonny the importance of practice. 【答案】26．B 27．D 28．B 【导语】本文主要讲述了Lizzie曾经让Bonny当她雕塑的骑手，后来Bonny通过这次神奇的经历对雕刻产生了兴趣，并成为了一名成功的雕塑家的故事。 26．细节理解题。根据第三段“It needs a rider,” she turned to me.” “Would you be the rider, Bonny?”它需要一个骑手，“她转向我。“你愿意当骑手吗，Bonny”.和第五段“Later, I tried to sit on the horse. It felt strange up there—much higher than on bikes.后来，我试着骑在马上。在那里感觉很奇怪——比在自行车上高得多。”可知，Lizzie让Bonny成为她雕塑的骑手，故选B。 27．细节推理题。根据上文“I followed her words and set to make my small sculpture, layer on layer. The more I did, the more I felt I belonged to this new world. With growing interest, I kept sculpting.”我按照她的话，开始做我的小雕塑，一层一层。我做得越多，就越觉得自己属于这个新世界。随着兴趣的增长，我继续雕刻。可知，此处应说“我对自己所做的事从未如此满意过”，选项D符合语境，故选D。 28．细节理解题。根据倒数第三段“Months later, a cardboard arrived to me in a post. It was of me sitting on the horse.”几个月后，我收到了邮寄来的一张纸板。那是我坐在马上的照片。倒数第二段“So here I am, twenty years on, working as a sculptor. As I look out from my sculpture studio window, I see Lizzie’s Horse and Rider and all around my sculptures are gathered.”所以我在这里二十年了，作为一个雕塑家工作。当我从我的雕塑工作室的窗户往外看时，我看到了Lizzie的马和骑手，周围的雕塑都聚集在一起。可知，Bonny把Lizzie的马和骑士保存了二十年是因为它开始了Bonny的雕刻家生涯。故选B。 B Thomas Edison lit up the world with his invention of the electric light. Without him, the world might still be in the dark. However, the electric light was not his only invention. He also invented the motion picture camera and 1200 other things. About every two weeks he created something new. Thomas Edison was born in 1847. He attended school for only three months. His mother taught him at home, but Thomas was mostly self-educated. He started experimenting at a young age. When he was 12 years old, he got his first job. He became a news boy on a train. He did experiments on the train in his spare time. Unluckily, his first work experience did not end well. They fired him when he accidentally set fire to the floor of the train. Then Edison worked for five years as a telegraph operator, but he continued to spend much of his time in experimenting his first patent (专利权) in 1868 for a vote recorder run by electricity. Thomas Edison was totally deaf in one ear and hard of hearing in the other, but he thought of his deafness as a blessing in many ways. It kept conversations short, so that he could have more time for work. He always worked 16 out of every 24 hours. Sometimes his wife had to remind him to sleep and eat. Thomas Edison died at the age of 84. He left a great many inventions that greatly improved the quality of life all over the world. 29．How often did Edison make a new invention? A．About every fourteen days. B．About every seven days. C．About once a week. D．About twice a week. 30．The underlined word “fired” in the passage means “________”. A．gave somebody a job B．set fire to somebody C．let somebody down D．forced somebody to leave his job 31．Edison considered his deafness as ________. A．something bad B．a gift from god C．a kind of ability D．a disadvantage 32．What does the passage mainly talk about? A．The function of the electric light. B．Edison and his experiments. C．The importance of inventions. D．The whole life of Edison. 【答案】29．A 30．D 31．B 32．D 【导语】本文主要介绍了托马斯·爱迪生的生平和发明成就。 29．细节理解题。根据“About every two weeks he created something new.”可知，爱迪生大约每14天发明一项新东西。故选A。 30．词句猜测题。根据“He did experiments on the train in his spare time. Unluckily, his first work experience did not end well. They fired him when he accidentally set fire to the floor of the train.”可知，他利用业余时间在火车上做实验，不幸的是，他不小心放火烧毁火车地板，因此他们解雇了他，故可推断出“fired”意为“被解雇”。选D。 31．推理判断题。根据“he thought of his deafness as a blessing in many ways”可知，爱迪生对听力障碍持积极的态度，将其视为多方面的祝福，即视作上帝的恩赐。故选B。 32．主旨大意题。通读全文可知，文章主要讲述了爱迪生的整个人生历程及成就。故选D。 C The toothbrush is a common thing that most people use every day, but how much do you really know about this seemingly simple tool? Believe it or not, the toothbrush has a very long and interesting history. The first toothbrushes were actually small twigs (嫩枝) that people would chew (咀嚼) on one end to soften the bristles (短而硬的纤维). These bristles were then used to clean their teeth. This may seem like a very ancient way of cleaning one’s teeth, but it actually did a pretty good job! The first “modern” toothbrushes were made in China around 1498. These toothbrushes were made of pig hair and were much more comfortable to use than the twigs. In 1780, William Addis of England came up with the idea of making small holes in a bone and putting bristles into the holes. He then glued the bone to a handle. This design worked much better than the twigs and pig hair brushes and quickly became very popular. In 1845, the first toothbrush that was produced in large numbers was created by H.N. Wadsworth. His toothbrush was made of bone and bristles and was very similar to William Addis’ design. The first nylon toothbrush was created in 1938 by DuPont. Nylon bristles were much more effective at cleaning teeth than natural bristles and quickly became the standard. Today, toothbrushes come in all shapes and sizes and are made from all kinds of materials. You can even buy electric toothbrushes that do all the work for you! Who would have thought that such a simple tool could have such an interesting history? The next time you reach for your toothbrush, take a moment to think about all the people who have used a toothbrush before you and all the people who will use one after you. 33．What did people usually do with the twigs before brushing their teeth with them? A．They chewed on them. B．They cut them into two pieces. C．They glued them to a handle. D．They made small holes on them. 34．What is the right order of the following events? ① The nylon toothbrush came out. ② Pig hair was used to make toothbrushes. ③ Electric toothbrushes appeared in people’s life. ④ Toothbrushes with handles became popular in people’s life. A．①②④③ B．①④②③ C．②④①③ D．④①②③ 35．What is the structure of the text? A． B． C． D． 36．What is the best title for the text? A．The importance of the toothbrush. B．Suggestions on using the toothbrush. C．Different opinions about the toothbrush. D．The interesting history of the toothbrush. 【答案】33．A 34．C 35．B 36．D 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了牙刷的历史，从最初的树枝到现代的电动牙刷，展示了牙刷的演变过程。 33．细节理解题。根据第二段“ The first toothbrushes were actually small twigs ( 嫩枝) that people would chew (咀嚼) on one end to soften the bristles (短而硬的纤维). ”可知，人们在用树枝刷牙之前通常会一端来软化刷毛。故选A。 34．推理判断题。根据文章中的时间线，可以推断出以下事件的顺序：② Pig hair was used to make toothbrushes（1498年）→ ④ Toothbrushes with handles became popular in people’s life（1780年William Addis的设计开始流行）→ ① The nylon toothbrush came out（1938年）→ ③ Electric toothbrushes appeared in people’s life（文章未提供具体时间，但可以推断是较晚的发展）。因此，正确的顺序是C. ②④①③，故选C。 35．篇章结构题。文章第一段介绍牙刷是日常用品，但人们对其了解不多，它有着悠久而有趣的历史；第二、三段按时间顺序详细介绍了牙刷的发展历史；第四段介绍现在牙刷的种类和形状；最后一段再次强调牙刷历史的有趣性，并提醒人们思考牙刷的历史和传承。所以文章的结构是“总——分——总”，即总分总结构，B选项与此相符，故选B。 36．最佳标题题。根据第一段“but how much do you really know about this seemingly simple tool? Believe it or not, the toothbrush has a very long and interesting history.”可知，本文主要介绍了牙刷的有趣历史，D选项“The interesting history of the toothbrush”最符合文章主旨，故选D。 D Have you ever thought about living a zero waste lifestyle? Zero waste is a way of managing resources that focuses on reducing waste, protecting natural resources and stopping something bad from polluting the earth. Lauren Singer started living a zero waste lifestyle in 2012 when she realized that her actions were actually against her values—caring for the planet. “I thought that caring was enough, but it turns out that my lifestyle was creating harm and contributing to the systems that I was actively talking about fighting against,” she said of her decision to create less waste. So why is the zero waste lifestyle important? Living a zero waste lifestyle brings so many benefits that are worth considering: For the environment: By choosing to live a zero waste life, we have the power to reduce the bad influence of waste treatment methods such as landfills (垃圾填埋场), waste burning and ocean litter. This choice helps to protect the broken balance of ecosystems and our natural environment, so that we can help to build a healthier planet. For people’s wallet: A zero waste lifestyle requires us to be wise customers. For example, we should shop with a list or a reusable bag and buy local products in season. It is also about valuing what we have and finding creative ways to extend the life of our belongings. By reusing things, we not only save money in the long term but also reduce waste.   For the resources: When we reduce unnecessary shopping and reuse materials, we play a role in protecting resources like energy, water and raw materials. It is a green way that makes sure we use what we need without running out of our limited resources. By acting like that, we try to make sure that enough resources are kept for future generations. ▲ : By cutting waste sent to landfills and reducing production of goods using a large amount of energy, we are able to actively lower greenhouse gas emissions that cause global warming. The adoption of these environmentally friendly practices and the attention paid to waste reduction can make a lot of difference in our fight against climate change, which is seriously threatening our planet.   For our society: The zero waste lifestyle has the power to bring social changes by increasing people’s awareness about waste management. It encourages a sense of responsibility and gives people the confidence to practice a new lifestyle. By spreading the message of waste reduction and environmental ideas, the lifestyle attracts others to join in. In 2012, Lauren Singer started Trash for Tossers, a blog about her experience changing into zero waste living. Five years later, she founded Package Free, a shop full of products that support a green lifestyle.

The adoption of these environmentally friendly practices and the attention paid to waste reduction can make a lot of difference in our fight against climate change...”可知，本段主要讲述的是零浪费的生活方式对气候变化的影响。由此推知，空处应选For the climate change“对于气候变化”。故选C。 40．主旨大意题。通读全文可知，本文讲述了“零浪费”的生活方式很重要，它对我们有很多好处。故选C。 根据短文内容，从方框中选择五个选项分别填入空白处，使其文理通顺。 The Internet is shaping our lives. We already have online shopping services and mobile payment. However, this is just a start. The world’s leading tech companies are planning to build smarter online communities. 41 It was held in Wuzhen, Zhejiang last year. The development of artificial intelligence(AI, 人工智能) was a hot topic at the conference. If a machine can learn and solve problems as humans do, it can be called AI. The company Alibaba uses AI technology in its unmanned supermarket in Wuzhen. There is no salesperson in the supermarket, just a tablet on a desk that says “please smile”. 42 The bigger you smile, the more discounts(折扣) you get. Payment is done automatically through your Alipay account. When you first enter the supermarket, the supermarket’s AI recognizes your face and your account. There is also AI that can read lips. 43 It recognizes your mouth’s movements and turns them into voice or text messages. This could be very useful when you are trying to talk to someone on your phone in a noisy place. Police could also use the technology to help them find criminal suspects by lip-reading recordings from video cameras. 44 Microsoft’s chatbot XiaoIce can not only provide useful information, but also chat with people like a real friend. XiaoIce has a WeChat account. After following the account, users can start talking with her. 45 She keeps improving herself by talking with users. These technologies are being put into wider use. We may see a smarter world and better lives in the near future. A．She knows when to comfort you or tell jokes. B．They discussed this at the World Internet Conference.

In 2021, Zheng started to take cloud photos. “Clouds have always served as a stress relief for many people like me,” said Zheng from Fujian. “I really feel relaxed in recording the beauty of daily life.” For the purpose of spreading lovely moments to more people, Zheng started to share cloud photos in 2022. By admiring clouds, she added, people can know when to take an umbrella, whether to wear sunglasses or when to put on warm coats. It also offers a chance to break silence with a stranger next to you by asking “How is the weather today?” after you watch the clouds. As a growing number of online users began to show interest and raise questions, Zheng realized that she could offer more science content (内容) about cloud admiring. So she started to learn more about cloud admiring by reading professional books and papers on clouds. Zheng has now shared nearly 200 pieces of popular science content, including cloud recognizing, formation, comparisons of different kinds of clouds and weather-related knowledge. She now has over 210,000 followers on Xiaohongshu, and there are five group chats on the app where thousands of users share their daily cloud-admiring experiences. Looking ahead, Zheng hopes to make cloud admiring more popular. She is now collecting more cloud photos and plans to hold more activities to share the stories behind them.

It changed when I met Lizzie and her horse at twelve. One afternoon, I saw Lizzie looking up at a life-sized sculpture horse. “It needs a rider,” she turned to me. “Would you be the rider, Bonny?” “I can’t.” “You can ride bikes. It’s not that different. You’d just sit there. I’d sketch(画素描) you, sculpt you.“Later, I tried to sit on the horse. It felt strange up there — much higher than on bikes. I came every day after that. I looked forward to mixing up the plaster and holding it for Lizzie. I liked that. She was sculpting me up, little by little. After a few days’ work, I became the rider on the horse. It was me inside that skeleton. When it was finished, I could hardly take my eyes off the magnificent horse and rider. “Well,” said Lizzie. “What do you think, Bonny?” “I just wish I could make a sculpture,” I whispered, touching the neck of the horse. “You did, Bonny,” she said.“Without your help, I couldn’t have done it. Do you want to make a sculpture yourself?” “I can’t.” “Of course you can. But you have to look around, really look. Draw what you see. Make what you’ve sketched. You can have a corner of my studio. How’s that?” I followed her words and set to make my small sculpture, layer on layer. The more I did, the more I felt I belonged to this new world. With growing interest, I kept sculpting. ______ . Lizzie was working in the studio too. For minutes, a neck or leg would suddenly come to life. “When you do it, it’s like magic,”I said. She replied,“No, Bonny. Not magic. It’s a given thing, a talent from who knows where, who knows who. But once you discover you have it, whatever it is, it’s not to be wasted. Life’s too short to waste it.” Then came my summer holiday. I drew every day, boats, gulls and fishermen. I made sculptures with wet sand. My parents seemed surprised at my new interest. I never had such a perfect holiday. Months later, a cardboard arrived to me in a post. It was of me sitting on the horse. So here I am, twenty years on, working as a sculptor. As I look out from my sculpture studio window, I see Lizzie’s Horse and Rider and all around my sculptures are gathered. Magic life, I think. 26．What did Lizzie ask Bonny to do? A．To mix up her plaster. B．To be her sculpture’s rider. C．To ride bikes with her. D．To have a look at her horse. 27．Which of the following sentences can be put into the ______ in the passage?

Believe it or not, the toothbrush has a very long and interesting history. The first toothbrushes were actually small twigs (嫩枝) that people would chew (咀嚼) on one end to soften the bristles (短而硬的纤维). These bristles were then used to clean their teeth. This may seem like a very ancient way of cleaning one’s teeth, but it actually did a pretty good job! The first “modern” toothbrushes were made in China around 1498. These toothbrushes were made of pig hair and were much more comfortable to use than the twigs. In 1780, William Addis of England came up with the idea of making small holes in a bone and putting bristles into the holes. He then glued the bone to a handle. This design worked much better than the twigs and pig hair brushes and quickly became very popular. In 1845, the first toothbrush that was produced in large numbers was created by H.N. Wadsworth. His toothbrush was made of bone and bristles and was very similar to William Addis’ design. The first nylon toothbrush was created in 1938 by DuPont. Nylon bristles were much more effective at cleaning teeth than natural bristles and quickly became the standard. Today, toothbrushes come in all shapes and sizes and are made from all kinds of materials. You can even buy electric toothbrushes that do all the work for you! Who would have thought that such a simple tool could have such an interesting history? The next time you reach for your toothbrush, take a moment to think about all the people who have used a toothbrush before you and all the people who will use one after you. 33．What did people usually do with the twigs before brushing their teeth with them? A．They chewed on them. B．They cut them into two pieces. C．They glued them to a handle. D．They made small holes on them. 34．What is the right order of the following events? ① The nylon toothbrush came out. ② Pig hair was used to make toothbrushes. ③ Electric toothbrushes appeared in people’s life. ④ Toothbrushes with handles became popular in people’s life.

C．Different opinions about the toothbrush. D．The interesting history of the toothbrush. D Have you ever thought about living a zero waste lifestyle? Zero waste is a way of managing resources that focuses on reducing waste, protecting natural resources and stopping something bad from polluting the earth. Lauren Singer started living a zero waste lifestyle in 2012 when she realized that her actions were actually against her values—caring for the planet. “I thought that caring was enough, but it turns out that my lifestyle was creating harm and contributing to the systems that I was actively talking about fighting against,” she said of her decision to create less waste. So why is the zero waste lifestyle important? Living a zero waste lifestyle brings so many benefits that are worth considering: For the environment: By choosing to live a zero waste life, we have the power to reduce the bad influence of waste treatment methods such as landfills (垃圾填埋场), waste burning and ocean litter. This choice helps to protect the broken balance of ecosystems and our natural environment, so that we can help to build a healthier planet. For people’s wallet: A zero waste lifestyle requires us to be wise customers. For example, we should shop with a list or a reusable bag and buy local products in season. It is also about valuing what we have and finding creative ways to extend the life of our belongings. By reusing things, we not only save money in the long term but also reduce waste.   For the resources: When we reduce unnecessary shopping and reuse materials, we play a role in protecting resources like energy, water and raw materials. It is a green way that makes sure we use what we need without running out of our limited resources. By acting like that, we try to make sure that enough resources are kept for future generations. ▲ : By cutting waste sent to landfills and reducing production of goods using a large amount of energy, we are able to actively lower greenhouse gas emissions that cause global warming. The adoption of these environmentally friendly practices and the attention paid to waste reduction can make a lot of difference in our fight against climate change, which is seriously threatening our planet.   For our society: The zero waste lifestyle has the power to bring social changes by increasing people’s awareness about waste management. It encourages a sense of responsibility and gives people the confidence to practice a new lifestyle. By spreading the message of waste reduction and environmental ideas, the lifestyle attracts others to join in. In 2012, Lauren Singer started Trash for Tossers, a blog about her experience changing into zero waste living. Five years later, she founded Package Free, a shop full of products that support a green lifestyle. The products reduce packaging in their design and are made from materials that can either be reused, or recycled. “Anything to get closer to zero waste is making a difference. I hope more people can notice it.” Singer said. 37．From the passage, we know that ________. A．Lauren Singer produced more waste before 2012 than she does at present B．people who live a zero waste life can make more money than those who don’t C．the products in Singer’s shop have no packaging in order not to produce waste D．sending your waste to the landfills has a harmless influence on the environment 38．The writer may advise us to ________. A．buy a watermelon in winter B．turn a used bottle into a toy C．shop without a shopping list D．use many single-use products 39．Which of the following can be put in “ ▲ ”? A．For the better planet B．For the waste reduction C．For the climate change D．For the humans’ health 40．What does this passage mainly tell us? A．All of us need to develop a sense of responsibility towards future. B．A lifestyle full of waste is bad for the natural resources and society. C．The zero waste lifestyle is really important and does us a lot of good. D．Singer has taken action to support the zero waste lifestyle worldwide. 根据短文内容，从方框中选择五个选项分别填入空白处，使其文理通顺。 The Internet is shaping our lives. We already have online shopping services and mobile payment. However, this is just a start. The world’s leading tech companies are planning to build smarter online communities. 41 It was held in Wuzhen, Zhejiang last year. The development of artificial intelligence(AI, 人工智能) was a hot topic at the conference. If a machine can learn and solve problems as humans do, it can be called AI. The company Alibaba uses AI technology in its unmanned supermarket in Wuzhen. There is no salesperson in the supermarket, just a tablet on a desk that says “please smile”. 42 The bigger you smile, the more discounts(折扣) you get. Payment is done automatically through your Alipay account. When you first enter the supermarket, the supermarket’s AI recognizes your face and your account. There is also AI that can read lips. 43 It recognizes your mouth’s movements and turns them into voice or text messages. This could be very useful when you are trying to talk to someone on your phone in a noisy place. Police could also use the technology to help them find criminal suspects by lip-reading recordings from video cameras. 44 Microsoft’s chatbot XiaoIce can not only provide useful information, but also chat with people like a real friend. XiaoIce has a WeChat account. After following the account, users can start talking with her. 45 She keeps improving herself by talking with users. These technologies are being put into wider use. We may see a smarter world and better lives in the near future. A．She knows when to comfort you or tell jokes. B．They discussed this at the World Internet Conference. C．AI technology will take jobs away from humans one day. D．Sougou brought its lip-reading system to the conference. E．If you smile, it will give you a special discount for your goods.

If not, you could be missing out on something quite wonderful. Cloud admiring is an activity without a threshold (门槛) and it doesn’t require much. Sometimes, it can be an invitation to be amazed by something so common that we’ve become blind to it. Or you can go deeper, trying to make sense of the sky by learning the different kinds of clouds. Zheng, 25, a pop science blogger, is known as the “Cloud Collector” on Xiaohongshu. In 2021, Zheng started to take cloud photos. “Clouds have always served as a stress relief for many people like me,” said Zheng from Fujian. “I really feel relaxed in recording the beauty of daily life.” For the purpose of spreading lovely moments to more people, Zheng started to share cloud photos in 2022. By admiring clouds, she added, people can know when to take an umbrella, whether to wear sunglasses or when to put on warm coats. It also offers a chance to break silence with a stranger next to you by asking “How is the weather today?” after you watch the clouds. As a growing number of online users began to show interest and raise questions, Zheng realized that she could offer more science content (内容) about cloud admiring. So she started to learn more about cloud admiring by reading professional books and papers on clouds. Zheng has now shared nearly 200 pieces of popular science content, including cloud recognizing, formation, comparisons of different kinds of clouds and weather-related knowledge. She now has over 210,000 followers on Xiaohongshu, and there are five group chats on the app where thousands of users share their daily cloud-admiring experiences. Looking ahead, Zheng hopes to make cloud admiring more popular. She is now collecting more cloud photos and plans to hold more activities to share the stories behind them. By doing this, she wants to inspire more people to see the beauty of the clouds. 61．What is Zheng known as on Xiaohongshu? 62．When did Zheng start to share cloud photos? 63．How did Zheng learn more about cloud admiring? 64．Why does Zheng hope to make cloud admiring more popular? 65．Are you interested in cloud admiring? Why or why not?

It changed when I met Lizzie and her horse at twelve. One afternoon, I saw Lizzie looking up at a life-sized sculpture horse. “It needs a rider,” she turned to me. “Would you be the rider, Bonny?” “I can’t.” “You can ride bikes. It’s not that different. You’d just sit there. I’d sketch(画素描) you, sculpt you.“Later, I tried to sit on the horse. It felt strange up there — much higher than on bikes. I came every day after that. I looked forward to mixing up the plaster and holding it for Lizzie. I liked that. She was sculpting me up, little by little. After a few days’ work, I became the rider on the horse. It was me inside that skeleton. When it was finished, I could hardly take my eyes off the magnificent horse and rider. “Well,” said Lizzie. “What do you think, Bonny?” “I just wish I could make a sculpture,” I whispered, touching the neck of the horse. “You did, Bonny,” she said.“Without your help, I couldn’t have done it. Do you want to make a sculpture yourself?” “I can’t.” “Of course you can. But you have to look around, really look. Draw what you see. Make what you’ve sketched. You can have a corner of my studio. How’s that?” I followed her words and set to make my small sculpture, layer on layer. The more I did, the more I felt I belonged to this new world. With growing interest, I kept sculpting. ______ . Lizzie was working in the studio too. For minutes, a neck or leg would suddenly come to life. “When you do it, it’s like magic,”I said. She replied,“No, Bonny. Not magic. It’s a given thing, a talent from who knows where, who knows who. But once you discover you have it, whatever it is, it’s not to be wasted. Life’s too short to waste it.” Then came my summer holiday. I drew every day, boats, gulls and fishermen. I made sculptures with wet sand. My parents seemed surprised at my new interest. I never had such a perfect holiday. Months later, a cardboard arrived to me in a post. It was of me sitting on the horse. So here I am, twenty years on, working as a sculptor. As I look out from my sculpture studio window, I see Lizzie’s Horse and Rider and all around my sculptures are gathered. Magic life, I think. 26．What did Lizzie ask Bonny to do? A．To mix up her plaster. B．To be her sculpture’s rider. C．To ride bikes with her. D．To have a look at her horse. 27．Which of the following sentences can be put into the ______ in the passage?

Believe it or not, the toothbrush has a very long and interesting history. The first toothbrushes were actually small twigs (嫩枝) that people would chew (咀嚼) on one end to soften the bristles (短而硬的纤维). These bristles were then used to clean their teeth. This may seem like a very ancient way of cleaning one’s teeth, but it actually did a pretty good job! The first “modern” toothbrushes were made in China around 1498. These toothbrushes were made of pig hair and were much more comfortable to use than the twigs. In 1780, William Addis of England came up with the idea of making small holes in a bone and putting bristles into the holes. He then glued the bone to a handle. This design worked much better than the twigs and pig hair brushes and quickly became very popular. In 1845, the first toothbrush that was produced in large numbers was created by H.N. Wadsworth. His toothbrush was made of bone and bristles and was very similar to William Addis’ design. The first nylon toothbrush was created in 1938 by DuPont. Nylon bristles were much more effective at cleaning teeth than natural bristles and quickly became the standard. Today, toothbrushes come in all shapes and sizes and are made from all kinds of materials. You can even buy electric toothbrushes that do all the work for you! Who would have thought that such a simple tool could have such an interesting history? The next time you reach for your toothbrush, take a moment to think about all the people who have used a toothbrush before you and all the people who will use one after you. 33．What did people usually do with the twigs before brushing their teeth with them? A．They chewed on them. B．They cut them into two pieces. C．They glued them to a handle.

Zero waste is a way of managing resources that focuses on reducing waste, protecting natural resources and stopping something bad from polluting the earth. Lauren Singer started living a zero waste lifestyle in 2012 when she realized that her actions were actually against her values—caring for the planet. “I thought that caring was enough, but it turns out that my lifestyle was creating harm and contributing to the systems that I was actively talking about fighting against,” she said of her decision to create less waste. So why is the zero waste lifestyle important? Living a zero waste lifestyle brings so many benefits that are worth considering: For the environment: By choosing to live a zero waste life, we have the power to reduce the bad influence of waste treatment methods such as landfills (垃圾填埋场), waste burning and ocean litter. This choice helps to protect the broken balance of ecosystems and our natural environment, so that we can help to build a healthier planet. For people’s wallet: A zero waste lifestyle requires us to be wise customers. For example, we should shop with a list or a reusable bag and buy local products in season. It is also about valuing what we have and finding creative ways to extend the life of our belongings. By reusing things, we not only save money in the long term but also reduce waste.   For the resources: When we reduce unnecessary shopping and reuse materials, we play a role in protecting resources like energy, water and raw materials. It is a green way that makes sure we use what we need without running out of our limited resources. By acting like that, we try to make sure that enough resources are kept for future generations. ▲ : By cutting waste sent to landfills and reducing production of goods using a large amount of energy, we are able to actively lower greenhouse gas emissions that cause global warming. The adoption of these environmentally friendly practices and the attention paid to waste reduction can make a lot of difference in our fight against climate change, which is seriously threatening our planet.   For our society: The zero waste lifestyle has the power to bring social changes by increasing people’s awareness about waste management. It encourages a sense of responsibility and gives people the confidence to practice a new lifestyle. By spreading the message of waste reduction and environmental ideas, the lifestyle attracts others to join in. In 2012, Lauren Singer started Trash for Tossers, a blog about her experience changing into zero waste living. Five years later, she founded Package Free, a shop full of products that support a green lifestyle. The products reduce packaging in their design and are made from materials that can either be reused, or recycled. “Anything to get closer to zero waste is making a difference. I hope more people can notice it.” Singer said. 37．From the passage, we know that ________.
