Thinking that one day his children would admire his picture as well, he really wanted to have it painted well. However, he wasn’t sure what his painting would be like because of his leg and eye. So, he invited a group of famous painters to the palace (王宫), offering a lot of money to the artist who could create a beautiful picture of him. All the painters began to wonder how to paint the king. They soon decided that it was an impossible thing, fearing that if the king was not satisfied with their pictures, they would get punished (惩罚). So, one by one, they started making excuses and refused politely. Then, one painter named Tom said that he wanted to have a try. The king agreed. Tom started drawing and coloring the picture carefully in a quiet room. After some time, he finally finished it! All the other painters in the palace couldn’t wait to see what it would look like. When Tom showed the picture, everyone, including the king, was amazed. Tom made a picture in which the king was sitting on a horse, showing the one-legged side, holding his bow (弓) and aiming the arrow (箭) with his one eye closed.

The houses were covered with snow. The weather was cold. It was only three o’clock in the afternoon, but it was already quite dark. “Merry Christmas, Uncle!” said a happy voice. It was Scrooge’s nephew. “Stupid!” said Scrooge. “Christmas is stupid? Surely you don’t mean that, Uncle,” said his nephew. “I do,” said Scrooge. “Merry Christmas. But why do you feel happy? You’re poor.” “OK. Then,” replied the nephew. “Why are you unhappy? You are so rich,” said his nephew. “I live in a world of fools! Merry Christmas! What does Christmas mean to you? It’s a time for expenditure. Shopping, shopping, shopping, people spend a lot of money buying so many unnecessary things! It’s also a time to find yourself a year older, but not richer. Everyone saying ‘Merry Christmas’ should get his tongue (舌头) cut out!” “Uncle! Please don’t say that,” said the nephew, “I’ve always thought of Christmas time as a good time, a kind, and a happy time. And so, Uncle, Christmas has never brought me any gold, but I think it has done me good. And it will do me good. And I say, God bless it!” Bob, standing in the corner of the room, applauded (鼓掌). He realized his mistake very soon, and went quickly back to his work, but Scrooge had heard him. “One more sound from you, Bob,” said Scrooge. “And you’ll celebrate Christmas by losing your job!” “Don’t be angry with him, Uncle. Come and have dinner with us tomorrow.” “No,” said Scrooge. “I’m sorry you don’t want to celebrate Christmas. But I do. So a Merry Christmas, Uncle!” “Good afternoon!” said Scrooge. “And a Happy New Year!” said his nephew. “Good afternoon!” said Scrooge again. His nephew left the room. He stopped to wish Bob a Merry Christmas. And Bob replied, “A Merry Christmas to you, too.” 28. When did the story happen? A. In spring. B. In summer. C. In autumn. D. In winter. 29.

The houses were covered with snow. The weather was cold.”可知，故事发生在圣诞节前夕，且天气寒冷，房屋被雪覆盖，由此可推断故事发生在冬天。故选D。 【29题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中的“Christmas is stupid? Surely you don’t mean that, Uncle,” said his nephew.以及第五段中的“‘I do,’ said Scrooge.”可知，当侄子问Scrooge圣诞节是否愚蠢时，Scrooge明确表示他认为圣诞节是愚蠢的。故选C。 【30题详解】 词义猜测题。根据后文“Shopping, shopping, shopping, people spend a lot of money buying so many unnecessary things!”可知，Scrooge认为圣诞节是购物、购物、再购物的日子，人们会花很多钱买很多不必要的东西，由此可推断expenditure在此处意为“消费”。故选A。 【31题详解】 推理判断题。根据“Bob, standing in the corner of the room, applauded (鼓掌).”以及 “He stopped to wish Bob a Merry Christmas. And Bob replied, ‘A Merry Christmas to you, too.’”可知，当Scrooge的侄子表达对圣诞节的积极看法时，Bob鼓掌表示赞同，并且在侄子离开时，Bob也回应了圣诞祝福，由此可推断Bob和Scrooge的侄子一样相信圣诞节。故选C。 D You might have seen many wonderful fireworks, but you may not have seen this fantastic show—Striking Iron Flowers, also known as “Da Tie Hua” in Chinese. The Way to Create Iron Flowers The name “Iron Flower” comes from its special performance. Before the show, the performers first heat the iron until it becomes molten (融化的)—about 1600℃. When the performance starts, they use some boards to throw it into the air, making iron flowers that are more than ten meters high. And it just looks like millions of bright stars in the sky. The ① about the Performances If you believe it is an easy performance, then you might change your mind when you know how it is prepared. Creating “iron flowers” without getting hurt takes a lot of practice. The performers need to have strong arms, excellent skills, and great courage as well. During the performances, some performers usually don’t wear clothes. This way, the “flowers” can just fall down from their skin (皮肤) without causing risk to any clothes. It’s easy to be burned. But with their hard work, these performers can finally move freely without being burned, which is breathtaking. The ② of Da Tie Hua The tradition of Da Tie Hua started over a thousand years ago. In ancient times, many blacksmiths (铁匠) didn’t have enough money to buy fireworks. However, they discovered that when they poured molten iron into the air, it looked like fantastic fireworks. Many people came to watch the special “fireworks”, starting the tradition that people celebrate the Spring Festival or Lantern Festival by “Da Tie Hua” until today. The Meaning of Da Tie Hua From then on, Da Tie Hua has been seen as a way to keep away bad things and wish for good luck. The name also has another meaning. The character Hua has the similar sound to Fa, which can mean “to become rich and successful”. 32. What can we learn from the passage? A. The iron can become molten at the temperature of 600℃. B. The performers must wear heavy clothes to protect themselves. C. Iron Flower has a history of one hundred years. D. Da Tie Hua is seen as a way to keep away bad things. 33. What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 2 refer to? A. A board. B. Molten iron. C. Iron flower. D. The air. 34. Which of the following can be put in the ① and ② ? A. ①Dangers; ②Development B. ①Challenges; ②Beginning C. ①Difficulties; ②Meanings D. ①Achievements; ②Inventors 35. What is the best title for this passage? A. Amazing Chinese Traditional Arts B. Great Folk Artists in China C. The Fantastic Show-Iron Flowers D. Long, Rich History of Da Tie Hua 【答案】32. D 33. B 34. B 35. C 【解析】 【导语】本文介绍了中国传统表演“打铁花”，包括其制作方式、表演过程中的挑战、历史起源以及文化寓意。 【32题详解】 细节理解题。根据“From then on, Da Tie Hua has been seen as a way to keep away bad things and wish for good luck.”可知，打铁花就被视为驱除厄运、祈求好运的一种方式。故选D。 【33题详解】 词句猜测题。根据“Before the show, the performers first heat the iron until it becomes molten (融化的)—about 1600℃. When the performance starts, they use some boards to throw it into the air, making iron flowers that are more than ten meters high.”可知，前文提到表演者将铁加热成融化的铁水，表演时将其抛向空中，因此“it”指代“molten iron”。故选B。 【34题详解】 推理判断题。根据“If you believe it is an easy performance, then you might change your mind when you know how it is prepared... It’s easy to be burned” 可知，该部分讲述打铁花表演存在的难度与挑战，①应填“Challenges”；根据“The tradition of Da Tie Hua started over a thousand years ago... starting the tradition that people celebrate the Spring Festival or Lantern Festival by ‘Da Tie Hua’ until today”可知，该部分讲述打铁花的起源，②应填“Beginning”。故选B。 【35题详解】 最佳标题题。根据“You might have seen many wonderful fireworks, but you may not have seen this fantastic show—Striking Iron Flowers, also known as ‘Da Tie Hua’ in Chinese”以及后文分别介绍打铁花的制作方式、表演挑战、历史起源和文化寓意可知，文章围绕“打铁花这一精彩表演”展开，C选项符合。故选C。 E ①Look! Up in the sky! Not a bird…or a plane… it’s an eVTOL! It’s also known as an air taxi. It started the first journey from Shenzhen to Zhuhai, completing the 55-kilometer trip in about 20 minutes. This marks an important development of this exciting new form of transport. ②Air taxis use high technology to take off and land like a helicopter (直升机). So they don’t need long runways. Instead of using traditional engines (引擎), air taxis use electric motors (电动机). ③Air taxis can fly without a pilot. These air taxis have several propellers to help them stay safe in the sky. They also use large batteries (电池) to let them fly far and fast. ④Air taxis can make people’s travelling faster and safer. ⑤They can help improve traffic jams (交通拥堵), with their direct point-to-point travel. They can save time for people. The cost of taking an air taxi may be more expensive than ground transport, but the travel can be up to five times faster. ⑥With the help of the computers, the air taxis can fly safely in the sky. That is to say, the computers can plan the flight of every air taxi in advance (提前), so that they won’t have any accidents in the sky. ⑦The air taxi is also a better choice for cities. As an eco-friendly choice, it produces fewer emissions (排放) than traditional cars, improving air quality. ⑧The air taxi has already been used in the Paris Olympics. Some people think this is a transport that will become widely used. Many companies and researchers are developing this transport and they believe air taxis will have a huge market in the coming years. 36. Where did the air taxi start its first journey? A. In Shenzhen. B. In Zhuhai. C. In Guangzhou. D. In Beijing. 37. What is the writer’s main purpose in writing this passage? A. To compare different ways to travel. B. To discuss the future users of air taxis. C. To introduce air taxis as a new transport. D. To show the possible risks of taking air taxis. 38. Which of the following shows the structure of this passage? A. B. C. D. 39. What will the writer probably discuss after the last paragraph? A. The history of air taxis. B. The problems of air taxis.

What makes them wear masks? What do you think of it? Antonio, 16, America In America, people wear masks to protect others. Most of the Americans wear masks only when they are sick. Especially when they have to work or go to school, wearing a mask is one of the best ways to stop others from getting infected (感染的). If they don’t feel well, like having a fever or coughing, they will wear the masks to keep other people safe. They think it’s very impolite not to wear a mask when they "get sick. Yulisa, 15, Japan In Japan, many people wear masks because they want to avoid (躲避) communication with others. Sometimes, when they are in a bad mood (心情), they don’t want to talk with anyone and they don’t want others to notice them. At that time, they’d like to hide their faces under the masks. I think it’s a good way to help people stay away from social anxiety (焦虑). Wu Xinyu, 14, China In China, many teenagers still wear masks. For example, when they get pimples (青春痘) on their faces and when they have to take pictures with someone good-looking, they can’t take off their masks. The pictures they see online often show people who look perfect, and this makes teenagers feel like they need to look the same. Teenagers always compare themselves with these pictures and even feel afraid to take off their masks. Keeping a mask for a long time is bad for our health. Staying healthy is the most important in our life. 45. Do most Americans wear masks only when they are sick? ____________________________________________________________________________________________ 46. What does Yulisa think of wearing a mask? ____________________________________________________________________________________________ 47. Why do many teenagers in China wear masks? ____________________________________________________________________________________________ 48. When will you wear a mask? Explain why. ____________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】45. Yes, they do. 46. She thinks wearing a mask is a good way to help people stay away from social anxiety. 47. Because they get pimples on their faces, have to take pictures with someone good-looking, and are influenced by the perfect-looking people in online pictures. 48. I will wear a mask when I have a cold and cough, because it can prevent spreading the virus to the people around me. 【解析】 【导语】本文通过16岁的美国人安东尼奥、15岁的日本人尤利萨和14岁的中国人吴欣雨的表述，分别介绍了各自国家人们戴口罩的原因以及对戴口罩这件事的看法。 【45题详解】 根据“Most of the Americans wear masks only when they are sick”可知大多数美国人只在生病时戴口罩。故填Yes, they do. 【46题详解】 根据“I think it’s a good way to help people stay away from social anxiety (焦虑).”可知尤利萨认为戴口罩是帮助人们远离社交焦虑的好方法。故填She thinks wearing a mask is a good way to help people stay away from social anxiety. 【47题详解】 根据“For example, when they get pimples (青春痘) on their faces and when they have to take pictures with someone good-looking, they can’t take off their masks. The pictures they see online often show people who look perfect, and this makes teenagers feel like they need to look the same. Teenagers always compare themselves with these pictures and even feel afraid to take off their masks.”可知中国很多青少年戴口罩，是因为他们脸上长青春痘时、不得不和长得好看的人拍照时，还因为受网上完美形象照片的影响。故填Because they get pimples on their faces, have to take pictures with someone good-looking, and are influenced by the perfect-looking people in online pictures. 【48题详解】 开放性作答，言之合理即可。参考答案为I will wear a mask when I have a cold and cough, because it can prevent spreading the virus to the people around me.

The mother ________ (lay) the baby boy on the bed softly after he fell asleep. 【答案】laid 【解析】 【详解】句意：小男孩睡着后，妈妈轻轻地把他放在床上。根据“after he fell asleep”可知，句子描述的是过去发生的动作，应用一般过去时，lay作“放置”讲时，其过去式是laid。故填laid。 53. The teacher suggested that students use their time ________ (wise). 【答案】wisely 【解析】 【详解】句意：老师建议学生们明智地利用他们的时间。根据“The teacher suggested that students use their time…”可知，此处需要副词来修饰动词use，wise的副词形式为wisely，表示“明智地”。故填wisely。 54.

We always celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival by eating mooncakes. （对划线部分提问） ________ ________ you always celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival? 【答案】 ① How ②. do 【解析】 【详解】句意：我们总是吃月饼来庆祝中秋节。此处对“方式”进行提问，应用how引导特殊疑问句，句首首字母大写；原句谓语“celebrate”为实义动词，主语是you，此处应借助助动词do，构成特殊疑问句。故填How；do。 57. Could you please tell me where I can buy some stamps? (改为同义句) Could you please tell me where ________ ________ some stamps? 【答案】 ①. to ②. buy 【解析】 【详解】句意：请问你能告诉我在哪里可以买到一些邮票吗？原句是where引导的宾语从句，可改为“疑问词+不定式”的结构，因此where I can buy可改为where to buy。故填to；buy。 58. 如果你更注意你的学习习惯，你就能取得更好的成绩。（完成译句） If you ________ more ________ to your learning habits, you can get better grades. 【答案】 ①. pay ②. attention 【解析】 【详解】pay attention to“注意”，句子是if引导的条件状语从句，主句含有情态动词can，从句用一般现在时，主语是you，动词用原形。故填pay；attention。 59. wonder, whether, food, the, I, delicious, is（连词成句） ______________________________. 【答案】I wonder whether the food is delicious 【解析】 【详解】根据所给标点符号可知，本句是陈述句。I作主语，wonder作谓语；whether是宾语从句的连接词；the food作从句主语；is作谓语；delicious作表语。故填I wonder whether the food is delicious“我想知道食物是否美味”。 Ⅸ.看图写话。（每小题2分，共10分） 根据图片情景填入恰当的单词、短语或一个句子，须用到括号中的提示词或它们的正确形式，使文章逻辑通顺、语法正确，注意大小写和标点符号。 Yesterday was my birthday.

Even with these challenges, his cleverness and kindness made him a great king in his country. One day, the king saw the pictures of his ancestors (祖先) on the walls. Thinking that one day his children would admire his picture as well, he really wanted to have it painted well. However, he wasn’t sure what his painting would be like because of his leg and eye. So, he invited a group of famous painters to the palace (王宫), offering a lot of money to the artist who could create a beautiful picture of him. All the painters began to wonder how to paint the king. They soon decided that it was an impossible thing, fearing that if the king was not satisfied with their pictures, they would get punished (惩罚). So, one by one, they started making excuses and refused politely. Then, one painter named Tom said that he wanted to have a try. The king agreed. Tom started drawing and coloring the picture carefully in a quiet room. After some time, he finally finished it! All the other painters in the palace couldn’t wait to see what it would look like. When Tom showed the picture, everyone, including the king, was amazed. Tom made a picture in which the king was sitting on a horse, showing the one-legged side, holding his bow (弓) and aiming the arrow (箭) with his one eye closed. The king was very happy to see this beautiful picture and gave Tom a lot of money as he had promised. 24. What did the king invite these famous painters to do? A. To paint the palace walls. B.

C One Christmas Eve, old Scrooge and Bob were working busily in his office. The houses were covered with snow. The weather was cold. It was only three o’clock in the afternoon, but it was already quite dark. “Merry Christmas, Uncle!” said a happy voice. It was Scrooge’s nephew. “Stupid!” said Scrooge. “Christmas is stupid? Surely you don’t mean that, Uncle,” said his nephew. “I do,” said Scrooge. “Merry Christmas. But why do you feel happy? You’re poor.” “OK. Then,” replied the nephew. “Why are you unhappy? You are so rich,” said his nephew. “I live in a world of fools! Merry Christmas! What does Christmas mean to you? It’s a time for expenditure. Shopping, shopping, shopping, people spend a lot of money buying so many unnecessary things! It’s also a time to find yourself a year older, but not richer. Everyone saying ‘Merry Christmas’ should get his tongue (舌头) cut out!” “Uncle! Please don’t say that,” said the nephew, “I’ve always thought of Christmas time as a good time, a kind, and a happy time. And so, Uncle, Christmas has never brought me any gold, but I think it has done me good. And it will do me good. And I say, God bless it!” Bob, standing in the corner of the room, applauded (鼓掌). He realized his mistake very soon, and went quickly back to his work, but Scrooge had heard him. “One more sound from you, Bob,” said Scrooge. “And you’ll celebrate Christmas by losing your job!” “Don’t be angry with him, Uncle. Come and have dinner with us tomorrow.” “No,” said Scrooge. “I’m sorry you don’t want to celebrate Christmas. But I do. So a Merry Christmas, Uncle!” “Good afternoon!” said Scrooge. “And a Happy New Year!” said his nephew. “Good afternoon!” said Scrooge again. His nephew left the room. He stopped to wish Bob a Merry Christmas. And Bob replied, “A Merry Christmas to you, too.” 28. When did the story happen? A. In spring. B. In summer. C. In autumn. D. In winter. 29.

D You might have seen many wonderful fireworks, but you may not have seen this fantastic show—Striking Iron Flowers, also known as “Da Tie Hua” in Chinese. The Way to Create Iron Flowers The name “Iron Flower” comes from its special performance. Before the show, the performers first heat the iron until it becomes molten (融化的)—about 1600℃. When the performance starts, they use some boards to throw it into the air, making iron flowers that are more than ten meters high. And it just looks like millions of bright stars in the sky. The ① about the Performances If you believe it is an easy performance, then you might change your mind when you know how it is prepared. Creating “iron flowers” without getting hurt takes a lot of practice. The performers need to have strong arms, excellent skills, and great courage as well. During the performances, some performers usually don’t wear clothes. This way, the “flowers” can just fall down from their skin (皮肤) without causing risk to any clothes. It’s easy to be burned. But with their hard work, these performers can finally move freely without being burned, which is breathtaking. The ② of Da Tie Hua The tradition of Da Tie Hua started over a thousand years ago. In ancient times, many blacksmiths (铁匠) didn’t have enough money to buy fireworks. However, they discovered that when they poured molten iron into the air, it looked like fantastic fireworks. Many people came to watch the special “fireworks”, starting the tradition that people celebrate the Spring Festival or Lantern Festival by “Da Tie Hua” until today. The Meaning of Da Tie Hua From then on, Da Tie Hua has been seen as a way to keep away bad things and wish for good luck. The name also has another meaning. The character Hua has the similar sound to Fa, which can mean “to become rich and successful”. 32. What can we learn from the passage? A. The iron can become molten at the temperature of 600℃. B.

It started the first journey from Shenzhen to Zhuhai, completing the 55-kilometer trip in about 20 minutes. This marks an important development of this exciting new form of transport. ②Air taxis use high technology to take off and land like a helicopter (直升机). So they don’t need long runways. Instead of using traditional engines (引擎), air taxis use electric motors (电动机). ③Air taxis can fly without a pilot. These air taxis have several propellers to help them stay safe in the sky. They also use large batteries (电池) to let them fly far and fast. ④Air taxis can make people’s travelling faster and safer. ⑤They can help improve traffic jams (交通拥堵), with their direct point-to-point travel. They can save time for people. The cost of taking an air taxi may be more expensive than ground transport, but the travel can be up to five times faster. ⑥With the help of the computers, the air taxis can fly safely in the sky. That is to say, the computers can plan the flight of every air taxi in advance (提前), so that they won’t have any accidents in the sky. ⑦The air taxi is also a better choice for cities. As an eco-friendly choice, it produces fewer emissions (排放) than traditional cars, improving air quality. ⑧The air taxi has already been used in the Paris Olympics. Some people think this is a transport that will become widely used. Many companies and researchers are developing this transport and they believe air taxis will have a huge market in the coming years. 36. Where did the air taxi start its first journey? A.

What do you think of it? Antonio, 16, America In America, people wear masks to protect others. Most of the Americans wear masks only when they are sick. Especially when they have to work or go to school, wearing a mask is one of the best ways to stop others from getting infected (感染的). If they don’t feel well, like having a fever or coughing, they will wear the masks to keep other people safe. They think it’s very impolite not to wear a mask when they "get sick. Yulisa, 15, Japan In Japan, many people wear masks because they want to avoid (躲避) communication with others. Sometimes, when they are in a bad mood (心情), they don’t want to talk with anyone and they don’t want others to notice them. At that time, they’d like to hide their faces under the masks. I think it’s a good way to help people stay away from social anxiety (焦虑). Wu Xinyu, 14, China In China, many teenagers still wear masks. For example, when they get pimples (青春痘) on their faces and when they have to take pictures with someone good-looking, they can’t take off their masks. The pictures they see online often show people who look perfect, and this makes teenagers feel like they need to look the same. Teenagers always compare themselves with these pictures and even feel afraid to take off their masks. Keeping a mask for a long time is bad for our health. Staying healthy is the most important in our life. 45.
