He was always interested in 11 different kinds of tools worked. He started 12 at a young age, first as a kitchen helper and then as a food deliveryman (送餐员) for a platform providing life services. During those early days, he often 13 about a future with more advanced technology in his work. In his 14 time, Luo kept studying to get a degree. He believed knowledge would be 15 for any job changes. In 2022, the platform started looking for drone (无人机) pilots among its deliverymen. Luo saw this as a chance to follow his 16 and decided to give it a try. Before the training, he had little idea about drone systems, so he 17 himself by reading books. After a month of training, he 18 a hard exam—there were difficult tasks and questions—and became a drone pilot. Luo’s job has changed a lot since then.

The tea party started at about 6,495 meters above sea level on Mount Qomolangma in Nepal. Andrew Hughes, from the US, held the party. Detroit, the US Forgotten artists on showA new exhibition in the US is celebrating works by Italian women artists. They lived between 1,500 and 1,800. The works came from 17 painters. Artemisia Gentileschi’s works are also on show. She is now known as one of the greatest painters of the 17th century. Australia Humpback whale numbers growThe Australian government has taken humpback whales off the country’s list of endangered animals. Australians stopped killing whales 60 years ago. Since then, the number of humpback whales in Australian waters has grown from less than 1,500 to around 40,000. 26．Where did the visitors have the highest tea party? A．In Nepal. B．In America. C．In Australia. D．In Iraq. 27．What do you know about Artemisia Gentileschi? A．She was born in 1500. B．She was an Italian artist. C．She lived in Detroit, the US. D．She was famous between 1,500 and 1,800. 28．How are humpback whales in Australian waters nowadays? A．They are still in Australia’s list of endangered animals. B．They have been killed by Australians since 60 years ago. C．The number of them has grown by about 38, 500. D．They are no longer living in Australian waters. B There are many colours in nature. But do you know if a colour has weight? I think you’ll say “no”. But I am afraid you are wrong. If you don’t believe, you may do a small experiment. First, put two objects with the same weight into two boxes. Then cover the box. Third, wrap one box with a red piece of paper, the other with a white piece of paper. OK. Now hold the boxes with your hand one by one. It is certain that you will think the red one is a little heavier. Why do you think so? A scientist found that different colours have different weight in a man’s mind. So he did many tests and at last he got the result. That is to say, every colour has its own weight in our mind and their order is the same. The heaviest colour is red, then blue, green, orange, yellow and white. The scientist told us that colours also have smell. Can you smell the colour? Of course not. Then why did the scientist say so? That is because every colour stands for a kind of light with a certain wavelength. It reaches our brain through sense organs (感觉器官). According to this discovery, scientists say that people accept the colours they like, and refuse the colours they hate. So your body and mind will be healthy by using the colours you like. Or you’ll be nervous or even get ill. For example, if you stay in a room with red windows, wallpapers and furniture for two hours, you’ll feel you have been there for four hours. But if the room is blue, you’ll feel you have been there for only an hour. Another example, if a person walks out of a red room and into a blue room, his temperature will fall. That means our body temperature will change with different colours. 29．In people’s mind, different colours have different weight. Orange is heavier than ________. A．blue. B．red. C．green. D．yellow. 30．The purpose of the second paragraph is to tell us _________. A．red box is heavier than a white one. B．White paper is lighter than red paper. C．A colour has weight in one’s mind. D．You can know the weight of a colour by holding it. 31．Why did the scientist say colours have smell? A．Because people can sense the light from colours. B．Because we can smell colours with our nose. C．Because every colour has its own sweet smell. D．Because every colour can give off light of the same length. 32．If a person walks from a blue room to a red room, his body temperature will ________. A．rise. B．fall. C．stay the same. D．change now and then. C (“I” am a horse, the main character in the novel.) A horse fair was an interesting place. Many people went there to sell horses. You could see many kinds of young and strong horses. There were also poor and thin horses and they were worn out because of hard work. One day, the seller took me there. He wanted to sell me at a high price. I didn’t know if I would be lucky enough to meet a master who would treat me well. Then a man with a gentle voice came to us. He wanted to buy me at a low price, but the seller refused. Shortly after, a tall man with a very loud voice came. He walked around me and I was afraid he would buy me. Luckily, he walked away. After a few minutes, the man with a gentle voice came back. I was very happy to see him again. “I’ll give twenty-four pounds. Can you sell the horse to me?” he said. “OK! Take it,” said the seller. “He’s a quality one and if you want him for work, he’s a good choice.” Half an hour later, we left for the new home, along country roads, until we came to the city. My new home was in a narrow street. On one side of the street, there were some small, old houses. On the other, there were some stables (马厩). We stopped in front of a house. My new master whistled (吹口哨). The door opened. A young woman, a little girl and a boy, came out. They all looked at me. “Is he gentle, Father?” the girl asked. “Yes, Dolly, as gentle as a cat. You can touch him.” She touched my shoulder, whispering sweetly, “Welcome, my new friend.” The gentle touch and soft voice comforted me so much! They led me into a comfortable, clean stable, with plenty of food. After a meal, I lay down, thinking “I’m going to be very happy here.” —Adapted from The Black Beauty 33．What does the underlined phrase “worn out” mean? A．Tired. B．Surprised. C．Relaxed. D．Interested. 34．How much money did the man pay for the horse at last? A．Ten pounds. B．Fifteen pounds. C．Twenty-four pounds. D．Thirty pounds. 35．What can you infer (推断) from this passage? A．The new owner was very rude. B．The horse liked his new home. C．The seller would buy a new horse. D．The girl was afraid of the horse. 36．What may the story talk about next? A．The story of the horse seller. B．The streets around the house. C．The weather in the city. D．The happy life in the new home. D Have you ever wondered what else you can do on the train besides sleeping or scrolling through your phone? Actually, in China, trains have turned into centres which bring together the public and the nation’s intangible cultural Heritage (ICH，非物质文化遗产). Trains go across China and they are becoming ideal places for introducing local traditional culture. A good example is the K7041 train from Harbin to Mohe in Northeast China’s Heilongjiang Province. On the ICH train, Gulayier, dressed in traditional clothes, sang Oroqen folk songs and his partner played the Oroqen jaw harp, a musical instrument. Tourists on the train, especially those from southern China, sang and danced excitedly with the two performers (表演者) together. Gulayier said the train made it easier to hold tourists’ attention to his shows. He thought the train was a good platform for promoting (促进) ICH. Traditional heritage comes to life on trains. More ICH such as Qinhuai lanterns from Nanjing, Yulin puppet shows, and tea-picking operas in Guangxi has also made appearances on high-speed trains across China. It offers passengers a close-up way to experience traditional culture. Professor Xiao Fang from Beijing Normal University shares Gulayier’s opinion on the new use of ICH trains. He has pointed out another advantage of this. Beyond cultural promotion, it offers help for tourism. When passengers enjoy local traditions on board, they often develop a deeper interest in exploring the places they pass through. However, the ICH train journeys still have challenges, including the narrow space on trains and passengers getting on and off at each station. Therefore, some solutions are coming up cultural corners show traditional arts, and QR codes connect to more digital information. These help passengers to explore ICH at their own pace and continue learning after their journey ends. The success of ICH trains offers valuable lessons for cultural protection worldwide, proving that innovation (革新) and tradition can work together to keep cultural heritage alive for future generations. 37．What is the fresh experience for passengers on the K7041 train? A．Travelling farther north. B．Joining in live shows. C．Wearing traditional clothes. D．Having fun on the phone. 38．What do Gulayier and Professor Xiao both agree? A．ICH encourages more local visits. B．Trains help make ICH more popular. C．ICH improves the Chinese train journeys. D．Passengers welcome performers on ICH trains. 39．What does paragraph 5 mention about the ICH train journeys? A．Their features and influence. B．Their reasons and results. C．Their problems and methods. D．Their future and improvement. 40．What can be the best title for the passage? A．Trains push China’s cultural heritage further. B．China puts arms around local artists on ICH trains. C．More ICH trains begin running on railways in China. D．Train passengers share different local cultures of China.

There are two main causes of the chocolate shortage (短缺)—chocolate’s growing popularity and less production of cocoa, the plant from which chocolate is made. With more and more people in India and China loving chocolate these years, not much can be done about the first cause. Therefore, the only thing we can do is to increase cocoa production. However, new plant diseases and little rain have reduced cocoa production by 40 percent in the past 10 years. What’s worse, many cocoa farmers in Africa and other cocoa-producing countries are changing to other crops such as corn or rubber. This way, the farmers can make more money. “To prevent more farmers from changing, we are trying to create new cocoa plants that can grow faster and stronger.”said the researchers at the International Cocoa Control Centre. But first they must make sure the new plants are safe to grow. This takes a long time. First, each new plant is stored at the Control Centre for six months to make sure it is healthy. It is then planted in the Centre’s fields, studied and tested for another two years. Only after scientists are certain that they’re disease—free will the plants be sent to farmers in West Africa or wherever else they are needed. To create new stronger types of cocoa, scientists at the Centre are combining the best parts from different cocoa plants. Though the world is facing a serious chocolate shortage, there is now hope! 61．In which countries has chocolate become more popular in recent years? 62．Why do many cocoa farmers choose to grow corn or rubber? 63．What’s advantage of the new cocoa plants according to the researchers? 64．How long does it take scientists to make sure a cocoa plant is safe to grow? 65．What do you think of the scientists’ research on the new types of cocoa plants? 六、书面表达（满分20分） 66．假设你叫Tom，你们学校要推荐一名“最美学生”，你想推荐Sam。请根据表格内容，写一封90词左右的推荐信。信的开头和结尾已给出，不计入总词数。 姓名 Sam 性格、品质 自信 不害怕在许多人前面演讲； 勤奋 对学习标准高； 有条理 …… 乐于助人 …… 在校： 在家： 尊敬师长，团结同学； …… 喜爱的服装和颜色 蓝色T恤和黄色长裤，因为蓝色……，黄色……（请适当发挥） 其他 有爱心，经常参加慈善活动，把绝大部分业余时间用于帮助需要帮助的人。 Dear Mr. Wang, I’m writing to recommend Sam as the most beautiful student.

But do you know if a colour has weight? I think you’ll say “no”. But I am afraid you are wrong. If you don’t believe, you may do a small experiment. First, put two objects with the same weight into two boxes. Then cover the box. Third, wrap one box with a red piece of paper, the other with a white piece of paper. OK. Now hold the boxes with your hand one by one. It is certain that you will think the red one is a little heavier. Why do you think so? A scientist found that different colours have different weight in a man’s mind. So he did many tests and at last he got the result. That is to say, every colour has its own weight in our mind and their order is the same. The heaviest colour is red, then blue, green, orange, yellow and white. The scientist told us that colours also have smell. Can you smell the colour? Of course not. Then why did the scientist say so? That is because every colour stands for a kind of light with a certain wavelength. It reaches our brain through sense organs (感觉器官). According to this discovery, scientists say that people accept the colours they like, and refuse the colours they hate. So your body and mind will be healthy by using the colours you like. Or you’ll be nervous or even get ill. For example, if you stay in a room with red windows, wallpapers and furniture for two hours, you’ll feel you have been there for four hours. But if the room is blue, you’ll feel you have been there for only an hour. Another example, if a person walks out of a red room and into a blue room, his temperature will fall. That means our body temperature will change with different colours. 29．In people’s mind, different colours have different weight. Orange is heavier than ________. A．blue. B．red. C．green. D．yellow. 30．The purpose of the second paragraph is to tell us _________. A．red box is heavier than a white one. B．White paper is lighter than red paper. C．A colour has weight in one’s mind. D．You can know the weight of a colour by holding it. 31．Why did the scientist say colours have smell? A．Because people can sense the light from colours. B．Because we can smell colours with our nose. C．Because every colour has its own sweet smell. D．Because every colour can give off light of the same length. 32．If a person walks from a blue room to a red room, his body temperature will ________. A．rise. B．fall. C．stay the same. D．change now and then. 【答案】29．D 30．C 31．A 32．A 【导语】本文叙述了科学家发现不同的颜色在一个人的心中有不同的重量，颜色也有气味，这是因为每种颜色代表一种具有特定波长的光，它通过感觉器官到达我们的大脑。我们的体温会随着不同的颜色而变化。 29．细节理解题。根据“The heaviest colour is red, then blue, green, orange, yellow and white.”可知，橙色比黄色重，故选D。 30．推理判断题。根据“So he did many tests and at last he got the result. That is to say, every colour has its own weight in our mind and their order is the same.”可知，第二段的目的是告诉我们颜色在人的思想中有重量，故选C。 31．细节理解题。根据“That is because every colour stands for a kind of light with a certain wavelength. It reaches our brain through sense organs (感觉器官).”可知，科学家说颜色有气味是因为人可以感知到颜色发出的光，故选A。 32．推理判断题。根据“Another example, if a person walks out of a red room and into a blue room, his temperature will fall.”可知，如果从蓝色房间走到红色房间，体温会上升，故选A。 C (“I” am a horse, the main character in the novel.) A horse fair was an interesting place. Many people went there to sell horses. You could see many kinds of young and strong horses. There were also poor and thin horses and they were worn out because of hard work. One day, the seller took me there. He wanted to sell me at a high price. I didn’t know if I would be lucky enough to meet a master who would treat me well. Then a man with a gentle voice came to us. He wanted to buy me at a low price, but the seller refused. Shortly after, a tall man with a very loud voice came. He walked around me and I was afraid he would buy me. Luckily, he walked away. After a few minutes, the man with a gentle voice came back. I was very happy to see him again. “I’ll give twenty-four pounds. Can you sell the horse to me?” he said. “OK! Take it,” said the seller. “He’s a quality one and if you want him for work, he’s a good choice.” Half an hour later, we left for the new home, along country roads, until we came to the city. My new home was in a narrow street. On one side of the street, there were some small, old houses. On the other, there were some stables (马厩). We stopped in front of a house. My new master whistled (吹口哨). The door opened. A young woman, a little girl and a boy, came out. They all looked at me. “Is he gentle, Father?” the girl asked. “Yes, Dolly, as gentle as a cat. You can touch him.” She touched my shoulder, whispering sweetly, “Welcome, my new friend.” The gentle touch and soft voice comforted me so much! They led me into a comfortable, clean stable, with plenty of food. After a meal, I lay down, thinking “I’m going to be very happy here.” —Adapted from The Black Beauty 33．What does the underlined phrase “worn out” mean? A．Tired. B．Surprised. C．Relaxed.

A．The story of the horse seller. B．The streets around the house. C．The weather in the city. D．The happy life in the new home. 【答案】33．A 34．C 35．B 36．D 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，改编自《黑骏马》。文章主要讲述了Black Beauty在集市上被一位温和的男子买下，随后被带到新家，受到新主人一家友善对待的故事。 33．词义猜测题。根据第一段“There were also poor and thin horses and they were worn out because of hard work.”可知，这些马又瘦又弱，是因为辛苦工作导致的，由此可推测“worn out”意为“疲惫的”。故选A。 34．细节理解题。根据第六段“‘I’ll give twenty-four pounds. Can you sell the horse to me?’ he said. ‘OK! Take it,’ said the seller.”可知，这个人最终付了24英镑买这匹马。故选C。 35．推理判断题。根据最后一段“The gentle touch and soft voice comforted me so much! They led me into a comfortable, clean stable, with plenty of food. After a meal, I lay down, thinking ‘I’m going to be very happy here.’”可知，这匹马对新家的环境和家人都很满意，由此可推断它喜欢这个新家。故选B。 36．推理判断题。根据文章结尾“I’m going to be very happy here.”可知，这匹马认为自己会在新家过得很开心，因此接下来的故事很可能会讲述它在新家的幸福生活。故选D。 D Have you ever wondered what else you can do on the train besides sleeping or scrolling through your phone? Actually, in China, trains have turned into centres which bring together the public and the nation’s intangible cultural Heritage (ICH，非物质文化遗产). Trains go across China and they are becoming ideal places for introducing local traditional culture. A good example is the K7041 train from Harbin to Mohe in Northeast China’s Heilongjiang Province. On the ICH train, Gulayier, dressed in traditional clothes, sang Oroqen folk songs and his partner played the Oroqen jaw harp, a musical instrument. Tourists on the train, especially those from southern China, sang and danced excitedly with the two performers (表演者) together. Gulayier said the train made it easier to hold tourists’ attention to his shows. He thought the train was a good platform for promoting (促进) ICH. Traditional heritage comes to life on trains. More ICH such as Qinhuai lanterns from Nanjing, Yulin puppet shows, and tea-picking operas in Guangxi has also made appearances on high-speed trains across China. It offers passengers a close-up way to experience traditional culture. Professor Xiao Fang from Beijing Normal University shares Gulayier’s opinion on the new use of ICH trains. He has pointed out another advantage of this. Beyond cultural promotion, it offers help for tourism. When passengers enjoy local traditions on board, they often develop a deeper interest in exploring the places they pass through. However, the ICH train journeys still have challenges, including the narrow space on trains and passengers getting on and off at each station. Therefore, some solutions are coming up cultural corners show traditional arts, and QR codes connect to more digital information. These help passengers to explore ICH at their own pace and continue learning after their journey ends. The success of ICH trains offers valuable lessons for cultural protection worldwide, proving that innovation (革新) and tradition can work together to keep cultural heritage alive for future generations. 37．What is the fresh experience for passengers on the K7041 train? A．Travelling farther north. B．Joining in live shows. C．Wearing traditional clothes. D．Having fun on the phone. 38．What do Gulayier and Professor Xiao both agree? A．ICH encourages more local visits. B．Trains help make ICH more popular. C．ICH improves the Chinese train journeys. D．Passengers welcome performers on ICH trains. 39．What does paragraph 5 mention about the ICH train journeys? A．Their features and influence. B．Their reasons and results. C．Their problems and methods. D．Their future and improvement. 40．What can be the best title for the passage? A．Trains push China’s cultural heritage further. B．China puts arms around local artists on ICH trains. C．More ICH trains begin running on railways in China. D．Train passengers share different local cultures of China. 【答案】37．B 38．B 39．C 40．A 【导语】本文主要讲述了中国火车成为推广非物质文化遗产（ICH）的平台，通过现场表演、文化展示等方式让乘客近距离体验传统文化，并促进旅游业发展，同时面临空间限制等挑战。 37．细节理解题。根据“Tourists on the train, especially those from southern China, sang and danced excitedly with the two performers (表演者) together.”可知，乘客在K7041火车上的新鲜体验是参与现场表演（如与表演者共舞）。故选B。 38．推理判断题。根据“He thought the train was a good platform for promoting (促进) ICH”和“Beyond cultural promotion, it offers help for tourism”可推测出，两人均认为火车有助于推广ICH。故选B。 39．主旨大意题。根据“However, the ICH train journeys still have challenges”和“Therefore, some solutions are coming up...”可知，本段先提出挑战（如狭窄空间），再提出解决方法（如文化角和二维码）。故选C。 40．最佳标题题。通读全文可知，文章主要围绕火车推动ICH传播的主题展开介绍，选项A“列车推动中国非遗发展”适合作为最佳标题。故选A。 B）阅读下面短文，从短文后所给的五个选项中选出能填入短文空白处的最佳选项，使短文通顺、连贯，意思完整。 A large numbers of emojis (表情符号) are sent online every day. 41 Since emojis were invented in the late 1990s, they have been used as a modern international languages. 42 A written message is always black and white, but emojis show meanings beautifully. Sometimes emojis also change the way we write. The more emojis we use, the fewer words we use. There are many emojis with different meanings.

According to chocolate makers it could happen if we don’t act soon. There are two main causes of the chocolate shortage (短缺)—chocolate’s growing popularity and less production of cocoa, the plant from which chocolate is made. With more and more people in India and China loving chocolate these years, not much can be done about the first cause. Therefore, the only thing we can do is to increase cocoa production. However, new plant diseases and little rain have reduced cocoa production by 40 percent in the past 10 years. What’s worse, many cocoa farmers in Africa and other cocoa-producing countries are changing to other crops such as corn or rubber. This way, the farmers can make more money. “To prevent more farmers from changing, we are trying to create new cocoa plants that can grow faster and stronger.”said the researchers at the International Cocoa Control Centre. But first they must make sure the new plants are safe to grow. This takes a long time. First, each new plant is stored at the Control Centre for six months to make sure it is healthy. It is then planted in the Centre’s fields, studied and tested for another two years. Only after scientists are certain that they’re disease—free will the plants be sent to farmers in West Africa or wherever else they are needed.
