Purple makes people feel excited and helps reduce (减少) stress at the same time. This color can help runners do their best and achieve good results. What’s more, purple can make people pay more attention to runners. It can also remind people of lavender (薰衣草) in Provence of France. Some facts about the Olympics:* The Olympics started in Greece over 2,000 years ago. * The colors of the Olympic rings are blue, green, yellow, black and red, * The modern Olympics started in 1896 with 13 countries attending. * From 1912 to 1948, artists like musicians and writers also took part in the Olympics. 11．According to the reading, people painted the service areas ________. A．grey B．darker purple C．lighter purple D．green 12．Olympic Games Paris 2024 chose the purple track to ________. A．catch runners’ attention B．make the track look like lavender C．help runners do well in their games D．make this year’s Olympic Games different from others 13．Which of the following can we learn from the reading? A．Why the first Olympics took place. B．When the modern Olympics began. C．How many countries held the modern Olympics. D．How people chose the colors of the Olympic rings. B Andrew Parker, an English inventor, artist and zoologist at the University of Oxford, thinks color is not a thing. The world’s best colors, he says, come not from pigments (颜料), but from materials arranged into crystalline nano-structures (晶体纳米结构). And Parker thinks that we will have colors far richer and more shining than the common colors that we can see today. He calls it structural color (结构色). Structural color was first recorded in the 17th century, in some birds5 feathers, but it is only since the invention of the electron microscope (电子显微镜), in the 1930s, that we have known how it works. Structural color is completely different from pigments. Pigments absorb (吸收) light, however, structural color reflects light into special wavelengths. The results are lively, often shining. Parker has been working for over twenty years on a method to reproduce these nano-structures in a lab, to produce the most amazing nature’s colors. “The brightest colors,” says Parker, are being produced from completely transparent (透明的) materials. He decided to reproduce some colors to prove his idea. Parker has now found a way to produce large numbers of what he calls “Pure Structural Color”. Deep oranges can remain their advantage in the sun; blues and purples also have their brightness. Parker calls them the brightest colors in the world, and he keeps all the details. In this way, others can not say that the exact method is not found in nature. Next, Parker hopes to make use of the way butterflies shine gold and silver to make special paints, and to learn from the cuttlefish (墨鱼) how to make objects change colors. Parker sees a future that structural color will be used instead of pigments. 14．What makes people know how structural color works? A．The development of some modern labs. B．The appearance of the electron microscope. C．The documentary about some birds leathers. D．Tie different backgrounds of structural colour. 15．What is Parker’s purpose according to Paragraph 3? A．To keep his secret in the lab. B．To produce different materials. C．To make the most amazing colors. D．To find the best method to spread light. 16．From paragraph 4, we can know that ________. A．the sun plays an important role in our daily life B．blues and purples are brighter than deep oranges C．Parker has found the most beautiful color in nature D．Parker keeps the details of producing structural color 17．How does Parker find the future of structural color? A．Hopeful. B．Doubtful. C．Dangerous. D．Exciting. C In December 2020, the “quiet carriage” service was first introduced on some trains of the Beijing-Shanghai high-speed railway and the Chengdu-Chongqing high-speed railway. Up to June 2024, this service has developed to the Beijing-Guangzhou, Beijing-Harbin, Shanghai-Kunming and other high-speed railways. In the “quiet carriages”, videos are silent and phone calls are in a low voice. Doors at both ends of the carriage are closed to reduce noise from outside. During the trip, passengers must wear earphones or turn off speakers. They also need to leave their seats to make or answer calls, and their phones should be set to silent or vibration mode (振动模式). For those travelling with children, they must take care of them and keep them quiet. Mr. Li, a Chengdu local, said, “I make at least one round trip a week between Chengdu and Chongqing for work. I sometimes need to focus on my work or get some rest during the hour-long trip. The ‘quiet carriage’ is a good choice for me.” “When I wanted to buy the tickets, I first saw the choice for the ‘quiet carriage’, and I wanted to give it a shot,” said Miss Mou, who took the train from Beijing to Shanghai. “When I entered the carriage for the first time, signs reminding passengers to keep quiet were everywhere, and it was really much quieter than the other carriages.” Experts say that the “quiet carriage” service provides passengers with more value-added choices. It helps passengers to follow public orders and respect the rights of others. Furthermore, it creates a more civilized travel environment. 18．If a little boy cries loudly in a “quiet carriage”, his parents had better first ________. A．ask others for help B．take him out of the carriage C．wait until he calms down D．run a health check on him 19．What does the underlined part “give it a shot” probably mean? A．Shut it off. B．Make a mess. C．Take a break. D．Have a try. 20．Why does the author mention Mr. Li and Miss Mou? A．To show that the “quiet carriage” service is well received. B．To tell readers what makes the “quiet carriages” so special. C．To explain that the passengers there mostly work in business. D．To call on more passengers to enjoy the “quiet carriage” service. 21．What is the last paragraph mainly about? A．The importance of the social order. B．The need to build a railway network. C．The advantages of introducing “quiet carriages”. D．The development of our country’s railway service. D To celebrate his friend’s birthday, Luke Fortune drove from a small town in Central Oregon to Portland, where he parked his car in a paid garage overnight. The next morning, he discovered that the car’s window had been smashed, along with his dreams for the future: His backpack and computer were gone. “Everything important to me was on that computer,” said Fortune, 21, who is studying to become a paramedic (护理人员). Two days after the theft, another young man was standing outside his apartment, also in Portland. Masoud Almazrouei, 29, was an exchange student from the United Arab Emirates. He had been approached by a man who said he had a computer for sale. Only $200. Almazrouei, who had been in the United States for only a year, admits now that he was naive. But he needed a computer so he bought it, took it home, and turned it on. Within seconds, he saw files and photographs. “I wondered who would sell a computer with all of this on it,” he said. “I realized it could be stolen.” Almazrouei found what appeared to be the owner’s cell phone number and called it. Fortune didn’t trust this guy with a thick accent and thought it was a seam. Soon after, a police officer called Fortune to say that a man had dropped the computer off and said he was sorry. He passed along the man’s number. Fortune called and thanked Almazrouei and insisted on paying him a reward of $200, the money he was out. Almazrouei refused. He said it was his mistake to buy the computer from someone he didn’t know. More importantly, he said, it was his honor and duty as a Muslim (穆斯林) to return the property to the rightful owner. “I saw a photo of this man in his paramedic uniform,” Almazrouei said. “They help people. He is a good man. I don’t want my money back.” Still, the encounter produced its own kind of rewards. For Fortune, it was a lesson of cultural awareness during the sometimes terrible national argument about immigrants (移民), especially from the Arab world. “I’m from a small mainly white town,” Fortune said. “I’ve never met a Muslim. To my surprise, he’s a good man.” Almazrouei’s lesson was perhaps beyond words. When a story about the two young men’s encounter made it to the local papers, Almazrouei received a call from Wim Wiewel, the president of Portland State University, where Almazrouei is studying economics. “We thought since you gave back the laptop, we should give you a laptop so that you’ll have one,” Wiewel told him. “We’re very proud of you. It was a great story, and you did the right thing.” 22．What is the correct order of the events that happened? ①The computer was stolen in a paid garage. ②Almazrouei found a lot of files and photographs in the computer. ③Undoubtedly, Almazrouei bought the computer at $200. ④Almazrouei called Fortune but it didn’t work. A．①②③④ B．①③②④ C．③④②① D．②①③④ 23．The underlined word “seam” in Para. 5 is closest in meaning to “________”. A．trick B．game C．disaster D．accident 24．What does the author mean by saying “Still, the encounter produced its own kind of rewards” in Para. 8? A．Almazrouei’s kindness eventually paid off. B．Almazrouei received a reward of $200 from the university. C．Fortune could realize his dream with his computer back. D．Both of the young men gained something in their own way. 25．What can be inferred from the passage? A．Theft is common in Portland. B．Almazrouei was short of money. C．Fortune could not realize his dreams without his computer. D．Both of the young men are students. 第三部分 信息还原（共5小题：每小题1分，满分5分） 请认真阅读下面短文，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。 Nowadays, more and more families choose road trips for their vacation.

When it was ready, the server handed me a cup with laowai written on it, meaning“foreigner”. It was my second day in China, and this marked the first at different places when I would be called a laowai in public. What does it feel like to be called a laowai? As someone who doesn’t like being in the spotlight (聚光灯), walking down the street and suddenly hearing someone say to their friend, “Look, a laowai”, is not a pleasant experience. It just makes you feel awkward and draws unnecessary attention. As much as I dislike being singled out, I also try to understand. China is not a nation like Australia, where I’m from. So. for many Chinese people, seeing a foreigner is still a big deal. When I’m in a place in China with few foreigners, even I sometimes can’t help but point out to my friends that there’s another foreigner nearby, I just make sure to do it carefully! My Chinese friends also tell me that laowai is a more welcome term than waiguoren because lao adds a touch of respect and friendship. I’ve never felt it came from a place of rudeness or disrespect. The longer I live here, the more China feels like home, and the more I just want to “fit in”. And that, I think, is something beautiful. 54．What does laowai mean? 55．How does the writer feel when being called laowai? 56．What would you say when you see a foreigner? Why? 第七部分 书面表达（共1题；满分25分） 57．我国的传统文化源远流长，博大精深 。我们随时都能感受到传统文化的气息，它绽放在异彩纷呈的民俗节日中 。假如你是李华，你的英国朋友 Jack来信说对“中国红”很感兴趣，想了解“中国红”在我们日常生活中的体现，请你根据下面提示写一封回信。 写作要求： ( 1)内容包括提示信息，可适当发挥，文中不得出现真实人名、校名和地名。 ( 2)字数不少于 80词。 (3)卷面整洁，条理清楚。 参考词汇：红包 red packets 剪纸 paper cutting Dear Jack, It’s great to receive your letter.

Up to June 2024, this service has developed to the Beijing-Guangzhou, Beijing-Harbin, Shanghai-Kunming and other high-speed railways. In the “quiet carriages”, videos are silent and phone calls are in a low voice. Doors at both ends of the carriage are closed to reduce noise from outside. During the trip, passengers must wear earphones or turn off speakers. They also need to leave their seats to make or answer calls, and their phones should be set to silent or vibration mode (振动模式). For those travelling with children, they must take care of them and keep them quiet. Mr. Li, a Chengdu local, said, “I make at least one round trip a week between Chengdu and Chongqing for work. I sometimes need to focus on my work or get some rest during the hour-long trip. The ‘quiet carriage’ is a good choice for me.” “When I wanted to buy the tickets, I first saw the choice for the ‘quiet carriage’, and I wanted to give it a shot,” said Miss Mou, who took the train from Beijing to Shanghai. “When I entered the carriage for the first time, signs reminding passengers to keep quiet were everywhere, and it was really much quieter than the other carriages.” Experts say that the “quiet carriage” service provides passengers with more value-added choices. It helps passengers to follow public orders and respect the rights of others. Furthermore, it creates a more civilized travel environment. 18．If a little boy cries loudly in a “quiet carriage”, his parents had better first ________. A．ask others for help B．take him out of the carriage C．wait until he calms down D．run a health check on him 19．What does the underlined part “give it a shot” probably mean? A．Shut it off. B．Make a mess. C．Take a break. D．Have a try. 20．Why does the author mention Mr. Li and Miss Mou? A．To show that the “quiet carriage” service is well received. B．To tell readers what makes the “quiet carriages” so special. C．To explain that the passengers there mostly work in business. D．To call on more passengers to enjoy the “quiet carriage” service. 21．What is the last paragraph mainly about? A．The importance of the social order. B．The need to build a railway network. C．The advantages of introducing “quiet carriages”. D．The development of our country’s railway service. 【答案】18．B 19．D 20．A 21．C 【导语】本文介绍了中国高铁“静音车厢”服务的推出、推广情况及乘客体验。 18．推理判断题。根据“For those travelling with children, they must take care of them and keep them quiet.”可知乘客需要保持安静，所以如果一个小男孩大声哭喊，父母最好将孩子带出车厢。故选B。 19．词句猜测题。根据“When I wanted to buy the tickets, I first saw the choice for the ‘quiet carriage’, and I wanted to give it a shot”可知当她想买票时，首先看到了“安静车厢”的选择，她想试试，故划线部分“give it a shot”的意思是“尝试一下”，故选D。 20． 推理判断题。根据“I sometimes need to focus on my work or get some rest during the hour-long trip. The ‘quiet carriage’ is a good choice for me”以及“When I entered the carriage for the first time, signs reminding passengers to keep quiet were everywhere, and it was really much quieter than the other carriages”可知文章提到Mr. Li和Miss Mou对“静音车厢”的积极评价，说明这项服务受到欢迎。故选A。 21．主旨大意题。根据“Experts say that the ‘quiet carriage’ service provides passengers with more value-added choices”可知最后一段提到“静音车厢”服务为乘客提供了更多增值选择，帮助乘客遵守公共秩序，尊重他人权利，并创造了更文明的旅行环境。故选C。 D To celebrate his friend’s birthday, Luke Fortune drove from a small town in Central Oregon to Portland, where he parked his car in a paid garage overnight. The next morning, he discovered that the car’s window had been smashed, along with his dreams for the future: His backpack and computer were gone. “Everything important to me was on that computer,” said Fortune, 21, who is studying to become a paramedic (护理人员). Two days after the theft, another young man was standing outside his apartment, also in Portland. Masoud Almazrouei, 29, was an exchange student from the United Arab Emirates. He had been approached by a man who said he had a computer for sale. Only $200. Almazrouei, who had been in the United States for only a year, admits now that he was naive. But he needed a computer so he bought it, took it home, and turned it on. Within seconds, he saw files and photographs. “I wondered who would sell a computer with all of this on it,” he said. “I realized it could be stolen.” Almazrouei found what appeared to be the owner’s cell phone number and called it. Fortune didn’t trust this guy with a thick accent and thought it was a seam. Soon after, a police officer called Fortune to say that a man had dropped the computer off and said he was sorry. He passed along the man’s number. Fortune called and thanked Almazrouei and insisted on paying him a reward of $200, the money he was out. Almazrouei refused. He said it was his mistake to buy the computer from someone he didn’t know. More importantly, he said, it was his honor and duty as a Muslim (穆斯林) to return the property to the rightful owner. “I saw a photo of this man in his paramedic uniform,” Almazrouei said. “They help people. He is a good man. I don’t want my money back.” Still, the encounter produced its own kind of rewards. For Fortune, it was a lesson of cultural awareness during the sometimes terrible national argument about immigrants (移民), especially from the Arab world. “I’m from a small mainly white town,” Fortune said. “I’ve never met a Muslim. To my surprise, he’s a good man.” Almazrouei’s lesson was perhaps beyond words. When a story about the two young men’s encounter made it to the local papers, Almazrouei received a call from Wim Wiewel, the president of Portland State University, where Almazrouei is studying economics. “We thought since you gave back the laptop, we should give you a laptop so that you’ll have one,” Wiewel told him. “We’re very proud of you. It was a great story, and you did the right thing.” 22．What is the correct order of the events that happened? ①The computer was stolen in a paid garage. ②Almazrouei found a lot of files and photographs in the computer. ③Undoubtedly, Almazrouei bought the computer at $200. ④Almazrouei called Fortune but it didn’t work. A．①②③④ B．①③②④ C．③④②① D．②①③④ 23．The underlined word “seam” in Para. 5 is closest in meaning to “________”. A．trick B．game C．disaster D．accident 24．What does the author mean by saying “Still, the encounter produced its own kind of rewards” in Para. 8? A．Almazrouei’s kindness eventually paid off. B．Almazrouei received a reward of $200 from the university. C．Fortune could realize his dream with his computer back. D．Both of the young men gained something in their own way. 25．What can be inferred from the passage? A．Theft is common in Portland. B．Almazrouei was short of money. C．Fortune could not realize his dreams without his computer. D．Both of the young men are students. 【答案】22．B 23．A 24．D 25．D 【导语】本文主要讲述了一个名叫Luke Fortune的年轻人的电脑失而复得的故事。 22．细节理解题。根据第一段“The next morning, he discovered that the car’s window had been smashed, along with his dreams for the future: His backpack and computer were gone.”，第三段“But he needed a computer so he bought it, took it home, and turned it on. Within seconds, he saw files and photographs.”和第四段“Almazrouei found what appeared to be the owner’s cell phone number and called it.”可知，首先是电脑被盗，然后是被Almazrouei买到，然后是发现文件和照片，最后是打电话给失主，故选B。 23．词句猜测题。根据“Fortune didn’t trust this guy with a thick accent ”可知，Fortune不相信这个带着口音的家伙，所以推断他认为这是一个骗局，划线单词表示“骗局”，与trick意思相近，故选A。 24．词句猜测题。根据“For Fortune, it was a lesson of cultural awareness during the sometimes terrible national argument about immigrants (移民), especially from the Arab world”可知，对于Fortune这是一场关于文化认知的学习，及“Almazrouei’s lesson was perhaps beyond words”可知，Almazrouei学到的或许无法用言语表达，可推断，两个年轻人都以自己的方式得到了经验教训，所以划线句子表示“两个年轻人都用自己的方式学到了一些东西”，故选D。 25．推理判断题。根据“said Fortune, 21, who is studying to become a paramedic”及“Masoud Almazrouei, 29, was an exchange student from the United Arab Emirates.”可知两个都是学生，故选D。 第三部分 信息还原（共5小题：每小题1分，满分5分） 请认真阅读下面短文，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。 Nowadays, more and more families choose road trips for their vacation.

When it was ready, the server handed me a cup with laowai written on it, meaning“foreigner”. It was my second day in China, and this marked the first at different places when I would be called a laowai in public. What does it feel like to be called a laowai? As someone who doesn’t like being in the spotlight (聚光灯), walking down the street and suddenly hearing someone say to their friend, “Look, a laowai”, is not a pleasant experience. It just makes you feel awkward and draws unnecessary attention. As much as I dislike being singled out, I also try to understand. China is not a nation like Australia, where I’m from. So. for many Chinese people, seeing a foreigner is still a big deal. When I’m in a place in China with few foreigners, even I sometimes can’t help but point out to my friends that there’s another foreigner nearby, I just make sure to do it carefully! My Chinese friends also tell me that laowai is a more welcome term than waiguoren because lao adds a touch of respect and friendship. I’ve never felt it came from a place of rudeness or disrespect. The longer I live here, the more China feels like home, and the more I just want to “fit in”. And that, I think, is something beautiful. 54．What does laowai mean? 55．How does the writer feel when being called laowai? 56．What would you say when you see a foreigner? Why? 【答案】54．Foreigner. 55．The writer feels awkward and uncomfortable when being called laowai, as it draws unnecessary attention. 56．When I see a foreigner, I would probably say “Hello”, because I want to respect him/her and not make him/her feel uncomfortable. 【导语】本文讲述了一个外国人在中国被称为“老外”的经历和感受，以及他对这一称呼的理解和适应过程。 54．根据“...the server handed me a cup with laowai written on it, meaning ‘foreigner’”可知，老外的意思是“foreigner”，即“外国人”。故填Foreigner. 55．根据“...hearing someone say to their friend, ‘Look, a laowai’, is not a pleasant experience”以及“It just makes you feel awkward and draws unnecessary attention.”可知，作者感到尴尬和不舒服，因为这样会引来不必要的关注。故填The writer feels awkward and uncomfortable when being called laowai, as it draws unnecessary attention. 56．开放性作答，结合实际，言之有理即可。参考答案为When I see a foreigner, I would probably say “Hello”, because I want to respect him/her and not make him/her feel uncomfortable. 第七部分 书面表达（共1题；满分25分） 57．我国的传统文化源远流长，博大精深 。我们随时都能感受到传统文化的气息，它绽放在异彩纷呈的民俗节日中 。假如你是李华，你的英国朋友 Jack来信说对“中国红”很感兴趣，想了解“中国红”在我们日常生活中的体现，请你根据下面提示写一封回信。 写作要求： ( 1)内容包括提示信息，可适当发挥，文中不得出现真实人名、校名和地名。 ( 2)字数不少于 80词。 (3)卷面整洁，条理清楚。 参考词汇：红包 red packets 剪纸 paper cutting Dear Jack, It’s great to receive your letter.
