Reading comprehension.（共50分） Choose the best answer. When you think of spies (间谍), you may imagine hi-tech products like secret cameras and hidden microphones. Plus James Bond, the famous special agent (特工), of course! But spying has been around for thousands of years. Ancient Egyptians used spies to keep an eye on their enemies—and so did the Greeks and Romans. ①Around 3100 BCE-332 BCE Ancient Egyptian spies were some of the first to use secret codes (密码) to send messages. They would also kill enemies with poisons made from plants and snakes. ②Around 1185-1600 The Japanese used spies called ninjas to secretly gather information from enemies. Trained since childhood, ninjas were good at hiding themselves and fighting. Male ninjas wore all black to move around, while female ninjas would get into enemy locations by acting as dancers or servants. ③Around 1325-1521 Aztec (阿兹特克) spies lived in what’s now central Mexico. Nicknamed (昵称) “mice,” they spied at night, hiding under cover of darkness. Because their job was especially dangerous—being caught could mean death—they were paid more than most workers. ④1775-1783 Before George Washington became president of the U.S.A., he ran a group of spies called the Culper Spy Ring. One of its members, Anna Strong, sent coded messages through her laundry. The colour and number of clothes hung on her washing line told soldiers where secret messages were hidden along the coast of Long Island. For example, a black dress and two handkerchiefs meant “Check the second bay.” Anna’s secret system was never discovered at the time! ⑤1916 During World War I, the French army received a message that said one of their spies, a dancer called Mata Hari, was a double agent. She was found guilty of telling the Germans secrets about a new weapon (武器) that the French were using—the tank—and was killed in 1917. ⑥1960s Things were serious between the U.S.A. and the Soviet Union (now Russia) during the 1960s. Neither country trusted the other and spy activities increased. They started to invent fine secret tools for spies to collect information. One popular tool was the buttonhole camera. The camera was hidden behind a fake button on the coat and took secret photos. ⑦G 2023 Today, spies don’t even need to leave homes to collect secret information! They can use computer programs to track (追踪) activity from anywhere in the world and get secret information that’s on computers, smartphones, etc. Many companies consider online spying to be their number-one danger. 39. According to the article, the following were among the earliest to use spies EXCEPT ________. A. Egyptians B. Greeks C. Japanese D. Romans 40. What kind of spies usually wore black clothes to help hide themselves? A. Egyptian spies. B. Male ninjas. C. Aztec spies. D. Spies of the Culper Spy Ring. 41. The underlined phrase “a double agent” probably means someone who ________. A. pretends to spy for one country but actually works for another B has many special skills and got two salaries C. is twice as wise and strong as an average agent D. is good at using both hands to attack enemies 42. According to the article, when did people start to invent fine secret tools to collect secret information? A. Around 1185-1600. B. From 1775 to 1783. C. In the 1960s. D. In 2023. 43. Which of the following statements is NOT true? A. Nowadays, online spying is a big problem for many countries. B. Female ninjas usually acted as dancers or servants to perform tasks. C. Anna Strong used clothes hung on the washing line to tell the locations of secret messages. D. Aztec spies were usually prisoners so they got less money than most workers. 44. The best title for the passage is ________. A. What Makes a Good Spy B. Different Types of Spies C. The Sad Life of Spies D. The Secret History of Spies Choose the best answer and complete the passage. What’s the best way to learn a language? We asked two experienced teachers of English for their opinions. Alastair Banton is a teacher at a private language school in the U.K. I think the most important thing is that you really have to want to learn the language—without that, you won’t get very far. You also have to believe that you will do it. Imagine yourself using the language confidently, and think, “Yes, I can do that.” Then there are other things. Of course, you need to work hard, but ____45____ you need to enjoy it and not get upset when you feel you’re not making much progress. And you have to be ____46____ —learning a language takes time; you can’t expect to know and understand everything in a few weeks! Also, you should try to develop a(n) “____47____” for the language—not only to recognize the sounds of the language and to understand what people are saying, but also the exact words and phrases that people use and then try to use them. Some people can do this without difficulty, but others have to learn how to do it—that’s why having a good teacher is important! Teresa Pele is a teacher of English in Poland. She has taught English in a secondary school for a number of years. For me, motivation (动力) is the most important thing. You have to be ready to study grammar, read a lot and listen to English songs, radio and TV, and you have to do these things step by step. It is so easy to forget what you have just learnt, that’s why you needed a teacher to ____48____ you to study. Even the most motivated students need that extra push sometimes. I believe that only a very few people can learn a language on their own. Learning a language can be quite stressful especially for adults—suddenly, we speak like ____49____ and make fools of ourselves! But if you’re motivated, you learn to get over this. It all sounds like very hard work—and it is. It is also very enjoyable—I ____50____ my students for everything they do well, however small it is. Many of them are very successful and speak English better than me, and some of them have even become English teachers! 45. A. at the same time B. for the time being C. in other words D. in return 46. A. busy B. careful C. effective D. patient 47. A. ear B. eye C. mouth D. nose 48. A. enable B. force C. hope D. offer 49. A. children B. experts C. natives D. teachers 50. A. praise B. thank C. understand D. value Fill in the blanks with proper words. In the world of social media, content creators have a deep influence on their audience. One such figure is “Xiaozhang the Worker,” a rising star on Douyin. She is known for her “How-to” video series, where she shares helpful tips. Many Chinese young people have been a____51____ by Xiaozhang the Worker. She has quickly got over 2 million followers on Douyin. Data (数据) from Google shows that nearly 40 percent of people born between 1997 and 2012 prefer Douyin for online searches. The rising popularity of “How-to” videos shows the fact that young people’s search h____52____ have changed and that video search engines like Douyin are their preferred tools when seeking information. Li Zhouzi, a 14-year-old from Shanxi, likes to search on Bilibili. She says that by doing this, she gets information e____53____. For example, she would always lose her way in a sea of difficult terms (术语) when using search engines for a concept (概念) of physics. But the videos on Bilibili can offer detailed explanations about the concept. They are often c____54____ than those she can find elsewhere. Hu Tian is a 13-year-old girl from Sichuan. She likes searching for information on Xiaohongshu, a lifestyle-sharing platform. Being able to have links with real people can also give searchers a strong sense of trust. She can see notes with photos and texts posted by people who also like it. “I believe them m____55____ more than some reviews from unknown people on search engines,” she said. L____56____ Hu, many young people search for lighter topics on social media platforms while they leave the h____57____ topics to search engines. Zhou Yaokai, a Senior 3 student from Sichuan, is one of them. He prefers to turn to official websites of organizations when forming his personal opinions on serious topics. “The information on those websites is worth believing,” he said. Answer the questions. Loves-agna Lucy dreamed of hosting her own cooking show. Every day, she practiced making up recipes (食谱), hoping to make her brother Leo and mother smile with her dishes. Yet, she could never cook right one particular meal: Lasagna (千层面). Or should she say, Grandpa’s Famous loves-agna. Each time Lucy tried the dish, Leo would spit (吐) it out or her mother would push it around her plate. People used to line up outside of Grandpa’s restaurant just to get a piece of it. Grandpa didn’t have a restaurant anymore, but he had given Lucy his recipe...without, however, telling her his secret ingredient (原料). He always said she had to figure it out by herself. What was the secret ingredient? Grandpa always told Lucy the same story she had already heard hundreds of times, “When you were very little, you tried my Lasagna. I turned my back for one minute...and you were covered in sauce and cheese! You threw a handful at me and yelled, ‘loves-on-yah! loves-on-yah’ I liked your name for it so much that I’ve called the recipe loves-agna ever since.” For Grandpa’s birthday, Lucy decided to give him a surprise by making a perfect loves-agna. She followed the recipe carefully, but she failed again and again—too salty, too sweet, or too spicy. Frustrated, Lucy threw her chef’s hat down and left the kitchen. Lying on her bed, she suddenly had an idea. Back in the kitchen, Lucy tore up the old recipe and put away her measuring spoons. Then she listened to her heart when cooking. Soon, the kitchen smelled wonderful. The doorbell rang. Lucy hung up her apron (围裙). Leo set the table. Mom answered the door. The family sat down to eat, but everyone hesitated. “Come on, everyone, eat,” Lucy said. “Don’t worry, it’s a new recipe.” Relieved, Mom, Leo and Grandpa slowly started eating their food. “It was delicious,” Mom said. “I loved it,” Leo yelled, reaching for a second piece “You’ve found the secret ingredient, Lucy,” Grandpa said. “But I didn’t even follow the recipe this time. I tore it up.” “I never really followed the recipe either, Lucy,” Grandpa patted his chest and took another slice, “I always listen to my heart and cook with love, just like you did this time. When you use this special ingredient, loves-agna always turns out perfect.” After hearing the words, Lucy felt ________ and learned that ________. 58. Lucy’s brother and mom didn’t love the Lasagna cooked by Lucy at first, did they? ______________________________________________________ 59. Why didn’t Grandpa tell Lucy the secret ingredient of his lasagna? ______________________________________________________ 60. Who called the recipe loves-agna? ______________________________________________________ 61. What does the underlined word “an idea” in paragraph 4 refer to? ______________________________________________________ 62. How did Lucy finally cook the delicious lasagna for her family? ______________________________________________________ 63 Complete the blank in the last paragraph. After hearing the words, Lucy felt ________ and learned that ________. VI. Writing:（共20分） 64.

Writing:（共20分） 【64题答案】 【答案】例文 Dear Mr. Zhang, I’m writing to share my ideas about the new Reading Zones in our school hallways. First, I suggest (that) they be open during breaks and after class. This gives students free time to read. Also, could we have various books and magazines there? Different books can attract more students. To keep the zones tidy, maybe we can ask volunteer students to help manage them. My reasons are: Opening during free time makes reading easy and fun. Having different books means everyone can find something they like. Student volunteers can learn responsibility while keeping the areas nice. Thank you for considering my suggestions.
