They can be both red or green, round or sharp, big or small, and more importantly, loved or hated by someone. What can they be? Right, the answer is chilies（辣椒）. Many of us in China enjoy adding chilies to our food, but do you know that this spicy（辣的）vegetable could also be very dangerous? A 34-year-old US man lost his life in hospital after eating a Carolina Reaper, the spiciest chili. After taking just one bite, the man began to get serious headaches in the following days, reported by BBC News. In fact, eating spicy food causes stomachache and headache. But if chilies are harmful, why do people like to eat this vegetable? What makes people love chilies so much? The human body is influenced（影响）by natural chemicals（化学物质）that produce “a sense of happiness”, noted by BBC News. And chilies do good to people in another way. Scientists found that the death rate of those who eat spicy food once or twice a week is 10 percent lower than those who eat it less than once a week. The death rate is 14 percent lower for those who eat spicy food six to seven times a week. This makes people eat more spicy food to make their health better. So don’t worry if you love spicy food. It seems that chilies are really good for us. 1．What can we know according to Paragraph 2? A．Eating the chilies makes people die. B．Eating chilies sometimes can be dangerous. C．Biting a few chilies always causes headaches. D．Adding a lot of chilies to the food is usual in America. 2．Why do people love to eat chilies? A．Because chilies can make them happy.

D．Eating proper（适当的）spicy food may make us healthier. 4．What is the passage mainly about? A．Two sides of eating chilies. B．A kind of beautiful vegetables. C．The reasons why chilies are loved. D．The bad results that eating chilies brings. 1．B 2．A 3．D 5．A 【导语】本文介绍了辣椒，吃辛辣的食物会引发胃疼、头痛。但科学家发现，多吃辛辣食物能改善健康，看来辣椒实际上对我们有好处。 1．段落大意题。根据文章内容“but do you know that this spicy（辣的）vegetable could also be very dangerous?”可知第二段在讲述辣椒可能是危险的，故选B。 2．细节理解题。根据文章内容“What makes people love chilies so much? The human body is influenced（影响）by natural chemicals（化学物质）that produce “a sense of happiness”, noted by BBC News.”可知人体受到产生“幸福感”的自然化学物质的影响，吃辣椒会让他们感到幸福，故选A。 3．推理判断题。根据文章内容“This makes people eat more spicy food to make their health better. So don’t worry if you love spicy food. It seems that chilies are really good for us.”可推断适量的辣椒对我们的身体是有好处的，故选D。 4．主旨大意题。根据文章内容可知，本文介绍了辣椒，吃辛辣的食物会引发胃疼、头痛。但科学家发现，多吃辛辣食物能改善健康，看来辣椒实际上对我们有好处。故选A。 （三） Drones are a kind of machine that can fly. They’re becoming more and more popular and are widely used in many areas. People use a computer to control this flying machine. Drones can do many things for us, like carrying things, taking pictures, and following animals that are in danger. Some people say this special machine will change our life as much as the computer does. In Brazil, farmers use drones to watch their crops. Brazil has quite a few large farms. On these farms, people find it difficult to look after all the crops. Drones can help farmers to find out if the crops are ill. They also help farmers use fewer farm chemicals. This can help the environment and save much money. Drones can also help to find lost people. If people are lost, who are far from home, police can use drones to find them. A 92-year-old man in Virginia was lost and had to spend a night in the woods. Luckily, the drone found him in 20 minutes. He was finally saved by the police. Drones can even serve people coffee. US company IBM has made this kind of drone. It can carry coffee to those in need. The drone can know when to bring a cup of coffee by studying a person’s habits. Then, the drone will fly to the person. There is a special device (设备) under the drone. It helps the drone to give people the coffee. The drone can also predict when someone needs their next cup of coffee. 1．In Paragraph 1, the writer tells us the wide use of drones in the passage by A．giving examples B．listing numbers C．answering questions D．using famous sayings 2．Which of the following statements is TRUE?

So parents can’t work full days or need others to help pick up their children. To help out working parents, the Ministry of Education (教育部) wants primary and middle schools to close late to make time for working parents. Before parents pick up their children, there should be after-school activities in schools. Teachers can help students with their homework. Students can enjoy their hobbies in groups, too. But students can’t have lessons after school. In Nanjing, there are free after-school activities in all primary schools from 2017. In 2021 the schools change the time from 5:30 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. so that parents can pick up their kids after work. About 230,000 children in primary schools do such activities. They are half of all primary school students in the city. From this spring, Shanghai public schools also change their school hours from ending at 3:00 p.m. to 4:30 p.m. Teachers work for more hours to look after their students after school. “Teachers take turns to do the activities,” a 5th-grade teacher in Shanghai says, “and usually I look after the students every Wednesday and Friday afternoon.” 49．Why does the Ministry of Education want schools to close late? A．To make working parents have time to pick up their children. B．To help working parents pick up their children earlier. C．To make students have more activities. D．To help children with their studies. 50．What is the total number of the primary school students in the city of Nanjing in 2021? A．115,000. B．230,000. C．420,000. D．460,000. 51．After school, the students can ________. ① play basketball        ② read books   ③ have a maths lesson     ④ do their homework A．①②③ B．①②④ C．①③④ D．②③④ 49．A 50．D 51．B 【导语】本文主要讲述了中国教育部颁发的“双减政策”，介绍了南京及上海的一些学校“双减政策”的开展情况。 49．细节理解题。根据第二段中“To help out working parents, the Ministry of Education (教育部) wants primary and middle schools to close late to make time for working parents.”可知，教育部希望学校晚点放学是为了让工作的父母有时间接孩子。故选A。 50．推理判断题。根据第三段中“About 230,000 children in primary schools do such activities. They are half of all primary school students in the city.”可知，约有23万名小学生参加此类活动，他们占全市小学生总数的一半，那么南京市的小学生总数是23万的两倍，即460,000。故选D。 51．细节理解题。根据第二段中“Teachers can help students with their homework. Students can enjoy their hobbies in groups, too. But students can’t have lessons after school.”可知，学生放学后可以做作业和享受他们的爱好，但不能上课，选项③不符合，排除ACD。故选B。 （五） We recycle (回收利用) rubbish, so why not language? Recycling language means using vocabulary (词汇) that you have learnt before again and again. However, unlike rubbish that piles up (堆积) in our environment, if we do not recycle language, we simply forget it. So how do you recycle language? There are basically (主要的) three ways to do it. The first is through reading. Go back to your favourite articles and read them once more. Just reread them and do not worry about each vocabulary item. If there are some that you are not sure about, make a guess and you will probably guess right. The second way to recycle is through writing. Look at some of your favourite articles and write either a short paragraph or a few sentences in your own words. After you have done this a few times, go back and read through what you have written, checking vocabulary functions. Don’t worry if you have made mistakes. That’s how you learn. The third way to recycle language is by having an imaginary chat with yourself about your favourite articles at home. You can pretend there is someone with you who speaks English and tell him what you are thinking about or how you feel. 33．According to the passage, recycling language means ________. A．repeating vocabulary at times B．revising vocabulary at a proper time C．learning new vocabulary as much as possible D．using vocabulary that we have learnt very often 34．If we recycle language, it may ________. A．be kept (被保存) in our mind B．be forgotten (被忘记) easily C．pile up in our environment D．disappear from our mind soon 35．The second way to recycle language tells us to ________. A．pay more attention (注意) to mistakes B．rewrite our favourite articles C．practise spoken English (英语口语) with someone D．pay no attention to vocabulary functions 36．Which of the following is probably the best title of the passage? A．Why to Learn Vocabulary B．Why to Write Articles C．How to Recycle Language D．How to Use Imaginary Chat 33．D 34．A 35．B 36．C 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了三种循环使用语言的方法。 33．细节理解题。根据第一段中的“Recycling language means using vocabulary (词汇) that you have learnt before again and again.”可知，循环使用语言意味着使用我们经常学习的词汇。故选D。 34．推理判断题。根据第一段中的“However, unlike rubbish that piles up (堆积) in our environment, if we do not recycle language, we simply forget it.”可知，如果我们不循环使用语言，我们就会忘记它，可推知，如果我们循环使用语言，它可能会留在我们的脑海里。故选A。 35．细节理解题。根据第二段中的“The second way to recycle is through writing.”可知，第二种循环使用语言的方式是通过写作。故选B。 36．最佳标题题。根据第一段中的“So how do you recycle language?”并通读全文可知，文章主要介绍了三种循环使用语言的方法。故选C。 （六） If the rose can be said to be a special flower, then the apple can be said to be a special fruit. It is very important in American culture. About 220 years ago, John Chapman went across America to get apple seeds (种子) and plant apple trees in America. Then apples became an important fruit for the people of early America. Because of this, John Chapman became very popular and got his new name “Johnny Appleseed”. One of the first sayings for American children is, “An apple a day keeps the doctor away.” This short saying encourages (鼓励) children to eat fresh fruit to keep healthy. If someone always says good words to a person, people will call him an “apple polisher”. But it is not a good name. If someone is very dear to us, we say that he or she is the “apple of our eyes”. Most people think that the fruit which Eve gave to Adam was an apple, although the Bible (圣经) never says so. So the apple is an important part of the language and stories of America. In many parts of the country, a popular activity in autumn is to pick apples in an apple garden. Washington D．C． and New York are both famous (著名的) for their apples. When it’s time to take a vacation to American cites, one can always visit New York— “the biggest apple” of all the American cities. 37．The second paragraph is mainly (主要) about ________ A．John Chapman had a good trip to America B．John Chapman grew apple trees across America C．John Chapman got another name "Johnny Appleseed D．John Chapman encourages children to eat fresh fruit 38．The underlined word “apple polisher” means ________ A．善解人意之人 B．阿谀奉承之人 C．伶牙俐齿之人 D．狡猾奸诈之人 39．What can we infer (推断) from the last paragraph？ A．New York is the biggest city in America. B．People like to go on vacation to Washington best. C．Picking apples is a popular activity in all the American cities. D．People can pick apples in autumn in America. 40．What is the best title of the passage? A．Apples - some interesting sayings. B．Apples - an important fruit in America. C．Apples - an important part in American culture D．Apples -the best ones in America 37．B 38．B 39．A 40．C 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要讲述了苹果在美国文化中起着举足轻重的作用。 37．主旨大意题。根据“John Chapman went across America to get apple seeds and plant apple trees in America. Then apples became an important fruit for the people of early America.”可知，本段主要讲述了约翰•查普曼在美国广泛种植苹果树，使苹果成了早期美国人的一种重要水果。故选B。 38．词句猜测题。根据“If someone always says good words to a person”可知这种人是总是对人说好话的人，故此处指“阿谀奉承之人”。故选B。 39．推理判断题。根据“When it’s time to take a vacation to American cites, one can always visit New York— ‘the biggest apple’ of all the American cities.”可推断出纽约是美国所有城市中“最大的苹果”，即纽约是美国最大的城市。故选A。 40．最佳标题题。本文主要讲述了苹果在美国文化中起着举足轻重的作用，以选项C“苹果——美国文化的重要组成部分”为标题最合适。故选C。 （七） Pakistani (巴基斯坦人) Hidayat Ullah, 29, is studying for his PhD degree in biochemistry at Dalian Medical University in Dalian, Liaoning province, and has found studying and living in China to be pleasant. “China is like our second homeland. People here are quite friendly and supportive,” he said. In the first year working in a lab in Dalian, Ullah published a research paper in the famous international biochemistry magazine Molecules. His article has been cited (引用) many times, which makes him well known in his field. His second research paper will come out soon. Ullah attributes (归因于)  his achievements to the highly-developed skills he got at the lab and great support from the teachers, his Chinese partners, and international classmates he has ever met. “Dalian Medical University is famous in my country for medical studies. I am very thankful that the China government scholarship helped me to realize my dream of studying here,” he said. The university began receiving international students in English medical education in 2004. Now over 1,200 international students from 81 countries are studying here, including 97 from Pakistan. With a growing number of graduates from 119 countries, the university continues to receive students who are trying to achieve a high-quality medical education in English. Ullah arrived in Dalian in 2019. During a connecting flight through Urumqi, Xinjiang, he felt the hospitality of the Chinese people. “I couldn’t imagine that a stranger at the airport would buy water for me, even invite me for lunch, when he knew I couldn’t pay by mobile phone,” he recalled. “My first feeling of China was really great.” Ullah plans to continue his academic journey as a postdoctoral (博士后) in China to get more research experience.

People here are quite friendly and supportive,”可知，乌拉认为中国人非常友好，他喜欢这里的生活。故选C。 34．细节理解题。根据“Now over 1,200 international students from 81 countries are studying here, including 97 from Pakistan.”可知，现在这所学校有97个学生来自巴基斯坦。故选B。 35．词句猜测题。根据“I couldn’t imagine that a stranger at the airport would buy water for me, even invite me for lunch, when he knew I couldn’t pay by mobile phone,”可知，机场的一个陌生人会为他买水，甚至邀请他共进午餐，由此可猜测hospitality意为“友善，好客”。故选C。 36．细节理解题。根据“Ullah plans to continue his academic journey as a postdoctoral in China to get more research experience.”可知，乌拉希望能够继续在中国继续他的医学研究。故选A。 （八） If you have ever been swimming in the ocean, you may have noticed that sea water is easier to float in than pool water. Here’s why. You’ll need： Two bowls Food coloring Spoon Salt Two eggs 1: Fill bowls half way with water. 2:Add 10 tablespoons of salt to one bowl, mix until it dissolves (溶解), and then add several drops of color. 3:Carefully, put an egg into each bowl of water and watch what happens. What happens? The egg in the plain water sinks. The egg in the salt water floats. (If the salt water egg does not float well, mix more salt into the bowl ) The water and salt particles（粒子）in the salt water bowl are closer together than plain water particles are. They push harder against the egg than the plain water particles do and the egg floats. 31．According to the text, if the egg in the salt water doesn’t float, which is the reason? A．The water is too cheap. B．The egg is too big. C．The bowl is too small. D．The salt is not enough. 32．What does the underlined word “plain” probably mean?

A．why the egg floats in the salt water B．why people float more easily in the sea C．how we can make the egg float in water D．how the water and salt particles act together 31．D 32．D 33．B 【分析】本文是一篇说明文，作者用一个实验来解释为什么人们在海里更容易浮起来。 31．细节理解题。根据“If the salt water egg does not float well, mix more salt into the bowl”可知，要是蛋没有在水里浮起来，说明盐加的不够多。故选D。 32．词句猜测题。根据下文“The egg in the salt water floats”可知，蛋在盐水里会浮起来，在纯净水里则会沉下去，故此处plain与with nothing else同义。故选D。 33．推理判断题。根据“If you have ever been swimming in the ocean, you may have noticed that sea water is easier to float in than pool water. Here’s why”可知，作者写此文的目的是为了解释为什么人们更容易在海里浮起来。故选B。 （九） ① My daughter gave me an address book for my birthday. She knows the one I have is old. The gift is lovely: the cover is colourful, and the pages are white. But I don’t feel like I am free to use this new address book because I’m still tied to my old one. ② My address book tells my own story—the way I moved around. Names were added in different colours from different periods of life. When I moved back home to Niagara, my address book included the old information I needed in order to get in touch with some of my old friends again. ③ There are certainly stories of friendships in this book—the comings and goings of my friends. Their address has been corrected again and again filling up one line after another. I have started using pencil for some of them because they are taking up too much space! Some friends went on to marry each other. For such things, I used arrows (箭头) to show how these two families had become one. Children’s names were added one by one. Then some got their own lines as they moved out. ④This book also includes the stories of my family—two generations remember all their phone numbers, and I can picture their houses in detail. Some have died, but their addresses are still there in my book. ⑤ “Don’t you have all that on your phone?” My daughter, who never uses address books, asked me once when she saw me checking my address book. I know that having it on a phone is super useful and can save a lot of trouble. But making changes on a phone is always done completely. When you don’t see a person any more, you delete (删除) all his information. It’s like he was never there. ⑥ My old address book now sits on top of the new one. The magnet (磁铁) on its cover is as strong as ever, keeping all the people from A to Z in order. But my new address book whispers a story of new possibilities. It offers me space for those new friends that I haven’t met yet. I’ll get to it. It’s just a matter of time. 42．The old information in the old address book can help the writer ________. A．move back home to Niagara B．connect with old friends again C．move around the world D．make more new fiends 43．The writer drew arrows in his address book when ________. A．two strangers became fiends B．two friends became husband and wife C．a friend of hers gave birth to a child D．a friend of hers moved to a new place 44．What can we infer (推断) from the last paragraph? A．The writer doesn’t like the new address book. B．The writer will start to use the new address book soon. C．The writer has decided to throw her old address book away. D．The writer decides to put all her friends’ information into a phone. 45．What is the proper structure of the passage? A．①-②③④⑤-⑥ B．①②③-④-⑤⑥ C．①②-③④-⑤⑥ D．①-②③④-⑤-⑥ 42．B 43．B 44．B 45．D 【导语】本文主要讲述了作者的女儿送给她了一个新地址簿作为礼物，作者因感情而珍惜旧的地址簿，因为上面承载了太多美好的回忆。 42．细节理解题。根据“When I moved back home to Niagara, my address book included the old information I needed in order to get in touch with some of my old friends again.”可知旧地址簿中的旧信息可以帮助作者再次与老朋友取得联系。故选B。 43． 细节理解题。根据“Some friends went on to marry each other. For such things, I used arrows (箭头) to show how these two families had become one.”可知当两个朋友结为夫妻时，作者在通讯录上画箭头。故选B。 44． 推理判断题。根据“But my new address book whispers a story of new possibilities. It offers me space for those new friends that I haven’t met yet. I’ll get to it”可知作者认为新地址簿有新的可能性，为作者提供了空间给那些还没见过的新朋友，作者会用的，由此推出作者很快就要开始使用新的通讯录了。故选B。 45．篇章结构题。第一段讲述了女儿送给自己一本新的地址簿，而自己还在用旧的；第二至第四段主要讲旧的地址簿的意义；第五段讲为何不用手机记地址；第六段介绍旧的地址簿仍然好用，但新的地址本有新的可能，也将会使用。故选项D符合文章结构。故选D。 （十） If you walk around the West Lake, you may find something smells good. With the name “queen of green tea”,West Lake Longjing tea is famous for its great smell, sweet aftertaste and pretty looks. A famous critic(评论家) said, “West Lake Longjing tastes rich and delicious as soon as you drink it.” Trying a cup of this tea is full of joy, but making it is never easy. Tea makers need to roast(炒)the leaves by hand. Making such good tea also needs to keep working patiently and carefully. Fan Shenghua, 59, is an inheritor(传承人)of this traditional tea-making work. He first learned to make tea at 14. But he felt terrible because he was not brave enough to touch the hot basin(砂锅)and thought it might burn him. Then Fan’s father told him, “This will be your life’s work, my son.” Now, Fan’s hands, full of calluses(老茧), have seen the hard work along his way of becoming an excellent tea-making worker. Now many tea workers begin to use machines because they want to make money in a short timer but Fan insists with the old and traditional way. “The tea made by machines looks very beautiful, but its taste is not as good as that of handmade tea,” he told China News. In March, President Xi Jinping visited Hangzhou and watched Fan make tea. Later, Xi said, “The things made by hand cannot be replaced(替代)by modern machines.” 42．Which of following about West Lake Longing tea is right? A．It has a strange smell. B．It looks pretty. C．It has salty after tea. D．It is black tea. 43．How did Fan Shenghua feel when he first made tea with his father? A．Happy. B．Angry. C．Afraid. D．Excited. 44．The underlined word insist may mean ________. A．get along B．keep on C．be careful D．be busy 45．What can be the best title of this passage? A．What makes Chinese green tea great? B．Why should we drink Chinese green tea? C．Chinese green tea-making is very famous. D．Modern machines make tea-making faster. 42．B 43．C 44．B 45．A 【分析】本文介绍了西湖龙井茶制作技艺非遗传承人樊生华一生手工制茶的艰辛和执着，从而使西湖龙井茶发扬光大。 42．细节理解题。根据“West Lake Longjing tea is famous for its great smell, sweet aftertaste and pretty looks”可知，西湖龙井茶以其香气馥郁，回味甘甜，外观秀美而闻名。故选B。 43．细节理解题。根据“He first learned tea make tea at 14.

They can be both red or green, round or sharp, big or small, and more importantly, loved or hated by someone. What can they be? Right, the answer is chilies（辣椒）. Many of us in China enjoy adding chilies to our food, but do you know that this spicy（辣的）vegetable could also be very dangerous? A 34-year-old US man lost his life in hospital after eating a Carolina Reaper, the spiciest chili. After taking just one bite, the man began to get serious headaches in the following days, reported by BBC News. In fact, eating spicy food causes stomachache and headache. But if chilies are harmful, why do people like to eat this vegetable? What makes people love chilies so much? The human body is influenced（影响）by natural chemicals（化学物质）that produce “a sense of happiness”, noted by BBC News. And chilies do good to people in another way. Scientists found that the death rate of those who eat spicy food once or twice a week is 10 percent lower than those who eat it less than once a week. The death rate is 14 percent lower for those who eat spicy food six to seven times a week. This makes people eat more spicy food to make their health better. So don’t worry if you love spicy food.

D．The bad results that eating chilies brings. （三） Drones are a kind of machine that can fly. They’re becoming more and more popular and are widely used in many areas. People use a computer to control this flying machine. Drones can do many things for us, like carrying things, taking pictures, and following animals that are in danger. Some people say this special machine will change our life as much as the computer does. In Brazil, farmers use drones to watch their crops. Brazil has quite a few large farms. On these farms, people find it difficult to look after all the crops. Drones can help farmers to find out if the crops are ill. They also help farmers use fewer farm chemicals. This can help the environment and save much money. Drones can also help to find lost people. If people are lost, who are far from home, police can use drones to find them. A 92-year-old man in Virginia was lost and had to spend a night in the woods. Luckily, the drone found him in 20 minutes. He was finally saved by the police. Drones can even serve people coffee. US company IBM has made this kind of drone. It can carry coffee to those in need. The drone can know when to bring a cup of coffee by studying a person’s habits. Then, the drone will fly to the person. There is a special device (设备) under the drone. It helps the drone to give people the coffee.

To help out working parents, the Ministry of Education (教育部) wants primary and middle schools to close late to make time for working parents. Before parents pick up their children, there should be after-school activities in schools. Teachers can help students with their homework. Students can enjoy their hobbies in groups, too. But students can’t have lessons after school. In Nanjing, there are free after-school activities in all primary schools from 2017. In 2021 the schools change the time from 5:30 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. so that parents can pick up their kids after work. About 230,000 children in primary schools do such activities. They are half of all primary school students in the city. From this spring, Shanghai public schools also change their school hours from ending at 3:00 p.m. to 4:30 p.m. Teachers work for more hours to look after their students after school. “Teachers take turns to do the activities,” a 5th-grade teacher in Shanghai says, “and usually I look after the students every Wednesday and Friday afternoon.” 49．Why does the Ministry of Education want schools to close late? A．To make working parents have time to pick up their children. B．To help working parents pick up their children earlier. C．To make students have more activities. D．To help children with their studies. 50．What is the total number of the primary school students in the city of Nanjing in 2021? A．115,000. B．230,000. C．420,000.

Recycling language means using vocabulary (词汇) that you have learnt before again and again. However, unlike rubbish that piles up (堆积) in our environment, if we do not recycle language, we simply forget it. So how do you recycle language? There are basically (主要的) three ways to do it. The first is through reading. Go back to your favourite articles and read them once more. Just reread them and do not worry about each vocabulary item. If there are some that you are not sure about, make a guess and you will probably guess right. The second way to recycle is through writing. Look at some of your favourite articles and write either a short paragraph or a few sentences in your own words. After you have done this a few times, go back and read through what you have written, checking vocabulary functions. Don’t worry if you have made mistakes. That’s how you learn. The third way to recycle language is by having an imaginary chat with yourself about your favourite articles at home. You can pretend there is someone with you who speaks English and tell him what you are thinking about or how you feel. 33．According to the passage, recycling language means ________. A．repeating vocabulary at times B．revising vocabulary at a proper time C．learning new vocabulary as much as possible D．using vocabulary that we have learnt very often 34．If we recycle language, it may ________.

A．Why to Learn Vocabulary B．Why to Write Articles C．How to Recycle Language D．How to Use Imaginary Chat （六） If the rose can be said to be a special flower, then the apple can be said to be a special fruit. It is very important in American culture. About 220 years ago, John Chapman went across America to get apple seeds (种子) and plant apple trees in America. Then apples became an important fruit for the people of early America. Because of this, John Chapman became very popular and got his new name “Johnny Appleseed”. One of the first sayings for American children is, “An apple a day keeps the doctor away.” This short saying encourages (鼓励) children to eat fresh fruit to keep healthy. If someone always says good words to a person, people will call him an “apple polisher”. But it is not a good name. If someone is very dear to us, we say that he or she is the “apple of our eyes”. Most people think that the fruit which Eve gave to Adam was an apple, although the Bible (圣经) never says so. So the apple is an important part of the language and stories of America. In many parts of the country, a popular activity in autumn is to pick apples in an apple garden. Washington D．C． and New York are both famous (著名的) for their apples. When it’s time to take a vacation to American cites, one can always visit New York— “the biggest apple” of all the American cities. 37．The second paragraph is mainly (主要) about ________ A．John Chapman had a good trip to America B．John Chapman grew apple trees across America C．John Chapman got another name "Johnny Appleseed D．John Chapman encourages children to eat fresh fruit 38．The underlined word “apple polisher” means ________ A．善解人意之人 B．阿谀奉承之人 C．伶牙俐齿之人 D．狡猾奸诈之人 39．What can we infer (推断) from the last paragraph？ A．New York is the biggest city in America.

C．Apples - an important part in American culture D．Apples -the best ones in America （七） Pakistani (巴基斯坦人) Hidayat Ullah, 29, is studying for his PhD degree in biochemistry at Dalian Medical University in Dalian, Liaoning province, and has found studying and living in China to be pleasant. “China is like our second homeland. People here are quite friendly and supportive,” he said. In the first year working in a lab in Dalian, Ullah published a research paper in the famous international biochemistry magazine Molecules. His article has been cited (引用) many times, which makes him well known in his field. His second research paper will come out soon. Ullah attributes (归因于)  his achievements to the highly-developed skills he got at the lab and great support from the teachers, his Chinese partners, and international classmates he has ever met. “Dalian Medical University is famous in my country for medical studies.

The university began receiving international students in English medical education in 2004. Now over 1,200 international students from 81 countries are studying here, including 97 from Pakistan. With a growing number of graduates from 119 countries, the university continues to receive students who are trying to achieve a high-quality medical education in English. Ullah arrived in Dalian in 2019. During a connecting flight through Urumqi, Xinjiang, he felt the hospitality of the Chinese people. “I couldn’t imagine that a stranger at the airport would buy water for me, even invite me for lunch, when he knew I couldn’t pay by mobile phone,” he recalled. “My first feeling of China was really great.” Ullah plans to continue his academic journey as a postdoctoral (博士后) in China to get more research experience.

You’ll need： Two bowls Food coloring Spoon Salt Two eggs 1: Fill bowls half way with water. 2:Add 10 tablespoons of salt to one bowl, mix until it dissolves (溶解), and then add several drops of color. 3:Carefully, put an egg into each bowl of water and watch what happens. What happens? The egg in the plain water sinks. The egg in the salt water floats. (If the salt water egg does not float well, mix more salt into the bowl ) The water and salt particles（粒子）in the salt water bowl are closer together than plain water particles are. They push harder against the egg than the plain water particles do and the egg floats. 31．According to the text, if the egg in the salt water doesn’t float, which is the reason? A．The water is too cheap. B．The egg is too big. C．The bowl is too small. D．The salt is not enough. 32．What does the underlined word “plain” probably mean?

She knows the one I have is old. The gift is lovely: the cover is colourful, and the pages are white. But I don’t feel like I am free to use this new address book because I’m still tied to my old one. ② My address book tells my own story—the way I moved around. Names were added in different colours from different periods of life. When I moved back home to Niagara, my address book included the old information I needed in order to get in touch with some of my old friends again. ③ There are certainly stories of friendships in this book—the comings and goings of my friends. Their address has been corrected again and again filling up one line after another. I have started using pencil for some of them because they are taking up too much space! Some friends went on to marry each other. For such things, I used arrows (箭头) to show how these two families had become one. Children’s names were added one by one. Then some got their own lines as they moved out. ④This book also includes the stories of my family—two generations remember all their phone numbers, and I can picture their houses in detail. Some have died, but their addresses are still there in my book. ⑤ “Don’t you have all that on your phone?” My daughter, who never uses address books, asked me once when she saw me checking my address book. I know that having it on a phone is super useful and can save a lot of trouble. But making changes on a phone is always done completely. When you don’t see a person any more, you delete (删除) all his information. It’s like he was never there. ⑥ My old address book now sits on top of the new one. The magnet (磁铁) on its cover is as strong as ever, keeping all the people from A to Z in order. But my new address book whispers a story of new possibilities. It offers me space for those new friends that I haven’t met yet. I’ll get to it. It’s just a matter of time. 42．The old information in the old address book can help the writer ________.

A．The writer doesn’t like the new address book. B．The writer will start to use the new address book soon. C．The writer has decided to throw her old address book away. D．The writer decides to put all her friends’ information into a phone. 45．What is the proper structure of the passage? A．①-②③④⑤-⑥ B．①②③-④-⑤⑥ C．①②-③④-⑤⑥ D．①-②③④-⑤-⑥ （十） If you walk around the West Lake, you may find something smells good. With the name “queen of green tea”,West Lake Longjing tea is famous for its great smell, sweet aftertaste and pretty looks. A famous critic(评论家) said, “West Lake Longjing tastes rich and delicious as soon as you drink it.” Trying a cup of this tea is full of joy, but making it is never easy. Tea makers need to roast(炒)the leaves by hand. Making such good tea also needs to keep working patiently and carefully. Fan Shenghua, 59, is an inheritor(传承人)of this traditional tea-making work. He first learned to make tea at 14. But he felt terrible because he was not brave enough to touch the hot basin(砂锅)and thought it might burn him. Then Fan’s father told him, “This will be your life’s work, my son.” Now, Fan’s hands, full of calluses(老茧), have seen the hard work along his way of becoming an excellent tea-making worker. Now many tea workers begin to use machines because they want to make money in a short timer but Fan insists with the old and traditional way. “The tea made by machines looks very beautiful, but its taste is not as good as that of handmade tea,” he told China News. In March, President Xi Jinping visited Hangzhou and watched Fan make tea. Later, Xi said, “The things made by hand cannot be replaced(替代)by modern machines.” 42．Which of following about West Lake Longing tea is right? A．It has a strange smell. B．It looks pretty.
