Players have to remove(移除) all the rings from the handle to win the game. This is not a simple game. The solution takes 341moves, so lots of patience is required. But if you learn to solve it, it's hard to forget.
Tangram (七巧板)
First popular in the Ming and Qing dynasties, the tangram is a puzzle made up of seven pieces of different shapes. For each puzzle,players need to use all the pieces to make a shape.

It was a dark and stormy night. It was New Year's Eve. We were having our party and had a house full of people just starting to celebrate.
Suddenly, we heard loud explosions(爆炸声). Looking outside and up into the hills, we saw sparks(火花) flying from electrical transformers(变压器). Then our house went dark. I tried to find every candle we had and lit them. The candles made everything look lovely. But we had problems. We had fifteen people standing around and we still had to cook dinner. How would we do that without electricity(电)?
The barbecue! Why not cook on the barbecue? We boys and men went outside, some holding flashlights and others cooking. We did a wonderful job. The girls and women stayed inside and got the salads ready. Everything was delicious. There were still a few hours to go before the beginning of the new year, so we all sat around the dining room table and sang up until a few minutes before midnight. We couldn't watch the ball drop in Times Square on television but that wouldn't stop us from celebrating. I stood on a chair and, with the help of someone's watch to tell us the time, we all counted down and I dropped a tennis ball! We all screamed(高喊) Happy New Year. We didn’ t need electricity for that!
Nowadays, we still get together with the same group to celebrate the New Year and we still talk about that special night. I don't think we have ever laughed so much as we did on that NewYear's Eve.
24. What happened during the party according to Paragraph 2?
A. The hills near the house caught a big fire.
B. The electricity went off in the house.
C. The lights in the living room were broken.

Learning how to ask for information politely is a very important social skill, especially when you are in a foreign country. While direct questions are clear, they can sometimes sound too strong or even rude in English. The secret to being polite is often to use longer and softer ways of speaking. For example, instead of asking“Where is the bank?”, a native speaker might say, “Excuse me, could you tell me where the bank is?” or“I was wondering if you know how to get to the bank.” These ways of asking sound more gentle and show that you respect the other person's time and help.
However, being polite is not always the same in every situation; it changes depending on the context. In a busy place, like a crowded train station, a clear and quick question like“Which platform for the express train?” might be perfectly okay. Also, when you are with close friends,simple and direct language is normal. The difficult part for English learners is to understand this difference. It's like the difference between giving an order and making a request. Even adding a simple“Excuse me” before a direct question can make it sound much better.
What's more, good communication is not only about the words you choose. Your body language is also very important. Looking at the person kindly, speaking in a friendly voice, and smiling can make your polite question feel truly honest. On the other hand, if you use an unfriendly tone, or if you are looking at your phone instead of the person, even the most correct polite question will not work well. Your body language should show the same respect as your words.
In the end, to really master polite communication, you need to do more than just remember sentences from a book. You should watch carefully how native speakers talk in different real-life situations—— like when they ask for something in a shop or at a hotel. It is all about learning to be a careful and smart communicator wherever you are.
28. According to the passage, in which situation might a direct question be MOST acceptable?
A. When interviewing for a job in a foreign company.
B. When asking a stranger for directions in a quiet park.
C. When you need to find your train platform quickly in a busy station.
29. What does the writer say about body language?
A. It is more important than polite words.
B. It should match the respect shown in your words.
C. It is hard to control for language learners.

30. To master polite communication, what does the writer suggest doing?
A. Remembering sentences from a book.
B. Watching how native speakers talk in different situations.
C. Focusing only on using correct grammar.
31. What is the writer's main purpose in writing this passage?
A. To explain why English grammar is difficult for learners.
B. To encourage readers to use body language instead of speaking.
C. To discuss the skills needed for polite and effective communication.
第二节 (共4小题;每小题2分,满分8分)
阅读下面短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有一项为多余选项。
There are so many expressions in American English that sound pleasant but are not.
“Face the music” is a good example. When someone says they have to“face the music”, it does not mean they are going to a concert. “Facing the music” means to accept and deal with the punishment of an action.
32 For example, “I can't face another night of camping! It's cold and rainy.” Or“In life, you must face your fears.”“Face” used in this way is very common.
But now, let's go back to facing the music. Imagine a friend asks you to take care of her beautiful red sports car. She gives you the keys and says, “Thanks so much for watching my car while I'm away. But please, do not drive it. It is an extremely( 极 其 ) fast car.” 33 You want to show off to some friends. So, you drive it around town one night. As bad luck would have it, you lose control of the car and drive it into a stop sign. Bang!
When your friend returns, you must tell her what you have done and“face the music”. 34 It could be losing her friendship or paying for repairs to her sports car or both.Whatever the music is, you must face it.
35 To“take your medicine” means to accept the results from something bad you have done. And if someone says, “You made your bed. Now lie in it.” they mean you created a bad situation and now you will experience the results!
A. But you do not listen.
B. The“music” here is the result of your actions.
C. Americans often use the word“face” in this way.
D. You may put up your hands to express your advice.
E. There are other same expressions as“face the music”.

Are You a Polite Traveler?
Wherever you go on a journey, being a polite traveler is as important as being a 36 guest in someone's house. Once you leave your local“kingdom” and go to new places, things like customs, food or language can be 37 . Yet, being kind and showing respect will always be the best thing to do!
If you see someone 38 something, it's nice to offer help. On my last trip to Ireland,

a thoughtful gentleman asked me 39 I needed help with my bags. He said,“I hope you will not take offense(觉得被冒犯) if I offer to help, but I'd be glad to lend 40 if you want!” The way he asked was very respectful and I really thanked him for his help!
If you visit 41 country, it's nice to learn a few words like“thank you”,“please”,“sorry” or“excuse me” in the local language. This shows that you' re interested in their 42 and makes you a respectful visitor.
Remember to 43 your sunglasses when you talk to someone. It's important to have eye contact when you talk to each other.
If you' re traveling with 44 , it's a good idea to bring things like toys or books to keep them busy and quiet during the trip. After all, little ones cannot always have fun on board.
And lastly, make sure to dress 45 when you travel. It's all about being respectful of the places you visit!
Anyway, traveling is fun and exciting, but being kind and respectful to others makes it even better!

第二节(共10小题;每小题1分,满分10分)
阅读下面短文,在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。
“He who learns but does not think is lost; he who thinks but does not learn is in danger.” The phrase comes from the Analects(《论语》). It means that if we only learn without thinking, we will feel confused; if we only think without learning, we will be 46 (bore) without gaining(获得) anything.
There is 47 similar saying in English:“Learning without thought is labor lost;thought without learning is 48 (danger).” For example, when studying history, if we only 49 (memory) dates, names, and events without considering the background, causes, and influences of historical events, we are likely to forget 50 we have learned and won't be able to draw valuable lessons from it.
Learning 51 (provide) the foundation(基础) for thinking. Through thinking, we can connect new knowledge 52 our existing(现有的) experiences. At the same time,thinking is good for our creativity and imagination. Moreover, thinking can improve and deepen(加深) learning. Through thinking, we can find out 53 (problem) and weaknesses in our learning and improve the efficiency(效率) and quality of our studies. Thinking also draws our interest in learning, encouraging us 54 (be) more active in the learning process.Therefore, only by learning and thinking can we 55 (true) master knowledge and promote(促进) personal growth.

IV.读写综合 (共两节,满分25分)
第一节 (共5 小题;每小题2分,满分10分)
阅读下面的短文,根据短文内容回答问题。
Li Ming,a 15-year-old student from Changsha, used to think English was difficult and boring.He had a hard time remembering grammar rules and new words. However, everything changed when his school began a cultural exchange program with a school in London.
In this program, Li Ming became friends with Tom, a British student. Their first task was to share their own traditional festivals. Li Ming chose the Mid-Autumn Festival, which he loves. To get ready, he didn't just use his textbook. He also looked for information online in English. He read about the story of Chang’ e and learned how to talk about why families get together and eat mooncakes during this festival. He was happy to find that when he cared about the topic,remembering English words became much easier and more fun than just trying to memorize them.
At the same time, Tom told Li Ming about Halloween. He sent a video showing how his family got ready for Halloween —— they cut pumpkins to make them look like faces and put up decorations around their house. Li Ming found these customs very interesting. He watched the video again and again to make sure he understood everything Tom said. He also made a list of questions to ask Tom, like“Why do children say‘Trick or treat’?” and“How did the tradition of wearing special clothes start?” Talking about these cultural differences helped Li Ming get better at understanding spoken English and speaking it himself.
This cultural exchange taught Li Ming a good way to learn English. He found that when he used English to share his culture and learn about others, the language became more alive and useful. He stopped worrying about making mistakes and started enjoying the communication.Now, Li Ming sees English not as a hard subject, but as a helpful tool that connects him with people from all over the world.
56. Did Li Ming use to be good at English?
57. Besides the textbook, how did Li Ming prepare for his introduction?
58. What made learning English words easier for Li Ming?
59. Why did Li Ming watch the video more than once?
60. What does Li Ming think of English now?
