We are here to announce that we have finally reached a deal to buy the old paper factory by the lake. We have agreed to pay a sale price of £5 million. This is slightly higher than our original offer six months ago, but we believe that the location next to water and the great transport make this the best place to build our new head office. We know that the factory has been there for over a century, and that many of you had relatives that worked there. Sadly, the building has not been taken good care of, and there is no way that it can be saved. It will have to be removed so that we can rebuild from the ground up. However, in addition to our new office building, we will be building a museum about the history of the factory and industry in this city. We will save as much as we can from the factory and show it to everyone. I’ll now hand over to our spokeswoman to take some questions. 第二部分 阅读(共两节，满分50分) 第一节(共15小题;每小题2.5分，满分37.5分) 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 A Paris Museum Guide: Must-Visit Cultural Treasures Planning a trip to Paris?

As a painter, embroiderer (刺绣师) and mixed-media artist, she has spent the past decade experimenting with the unique medium of honeycomb (蜂巢). In her latest collection, Roth employs the help of local honeybees to create amazing pieces that perfectly represent the co-existence of human beings and nature. Her works combine various man-made materials with the complex pattern of a raw honeycomb. During the cooperation, Roth’s part of work comes in the form of art picture hung in embroidery circles. Using her mastery of embroidery techniques, she creates designs with thread while including locally found materials, such as wood, plants and horsehair. After she arranges these elements to her liking, the bees come in to add their touch. Roth then attaches the circle to beekeeping frames and places it in a bee box. Over time, thousands of bees fill the frame with honeycomb, changing the piece into its final, fascinating form. The artistic cooperation between the honeybees and Roth’s creativity results in a unique and original work of art. Her direct cooperation with bees is just one aspect of her work. Roth also uses honeycomb in other collections, including sewn paintings, embroideries, and works on paper. In her work, Roth integrates the theme of the human relationship to the natural world, reflecting on how people shape nature to meet their needs and imaging a more beautiful outcome of our encounter. With the role honeybees play in pollinating many of the world’s crops, the species is vital to food production. Despite their essential duty, honeybee populations have been facing a growing decline worldwide, caused by factors such as climate change, habitat loss and pesticides. Roth raises awareness of this extraordinary species’ depopulation through her unique practice, exhibiting their exceptional architectural abilities and essential role in human life. 24. What is special about Ava Roth’s artistic practice? A. She focuses on the theme of nature. B. She employs bees to create artworks. C. She doesn’t cooperate with other artists. D. She only uses natural materials for her art. 25. What is mainly talked about in paragraph 3? A. The design of different elements. B. The complex results of art making. C. The difficulty of bonding with bees. D. The unique process of art creation. 26. What can we know about Roth’s work from the text? A. It highlights the exploration of nature. B. It reflects on how nature influences people. C. It advocates the harmony between man and nature. D. It aims to solve the issue of honeybee depopulation. 27. Which of the following best describes the impact of Roth’s practice? A. Far-reaching. B. Unidentifiable. C. Short-lived. D. Flexible. 【答案】24. B 25. D 26. C 27. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。主要介绍多伦多艺术家艾娃·罗斯与蜜蜂合作创作艺术作品及其环保意义。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“Toronto-based artist Ava Roth is unlike other cooperative artists: instead of working with people, she works with bees. As a painter, embroiderer (刺绣师) and mixed-media artist, she has spent the past decade experimenting with the unique medium of honeycomb (蜂巢). (多伦多艺术家艾娃·罗斯不同于其他合作艺术家：她不与人合作，而是与蜜蜂合作。作为画家、刺绣师和混合媒体艺术家，她在过去十年中一直尝试用蜂巢这种独特的媒介进行创作。)”可知，她艺术实践的特殊性在于利用蜜蜂参与艺术创作。故选B项。 【25题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第三段中的“During the cooperation, Roth’s part of work comes in the form of art picture hung in embroidery circles. Using her mastery of embroidery techniques, she creates designs with thread while including locally found materials, such as wood, plants and horsehair. After she arranges these elements to her liking, the bees come in to add their touch. Roth then attaches the circle to beekeeping frames and places it in a bee box. Over time, thousands of bees fill the frame with honeycomb, changing the piece into its final, fascinating form. (在合作过程中，罗斯的工作以悬挂在刺绣圈中的艺术画形式开始。她运用精湛的刺绣技巧，用线设计图案，并融入当地材料，如木材、植物和马毛。在按自己的喜好排列好这些元素后，蜜蜂开始参与创作。随后，罗斯将绣圈固定在养蜂框架上，并放入蜂箱。随着时间的推移，成千上万的蜜蜂用蜂巢填满框架，将作品变成最终迷人的形态。)”可知，该段详细阐述了她与蜜蜂合作创作艺术品的完整流程，突出其独特的创作过程。故选D项。 【26题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段中的“In her work, Roth integrates the theme of the human relationship to the natural world, reflecting on how people shape nature to meet their needs and imagining a more beautiful outcome of our encounter. (在作品中，罗斯融入了人类与自然世界关系的主题，反思人们如何塑造自然以满足自身需求，并想象我们与自然相遇的更美好结果。)”可知，她的作品核心在于倡导人类与自然和谐共处的理念。故选C项。 【27题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“Roth raises awareness of this extraordinary species’ depopulation through her unique practice, exhibiting their exceptional architectural abilities and essential role in human life. (罗斯通过独特的实践提高了人们对这一特殊物种数量减少的认识，展示了它们卓越的构建能力和在人类生活中的重要作用。)”可知，她的艺术实践通过视觉化的创作，引发人们对蜜蜂生态价值的长期关注，产生了深远的影响。故选A项。 C Beethoven is undoubtedly one of the greatest musicians. He completed 722 musical works. Unfortunately, the master died while still working on his 10th Symphon (交响曲) . Now, a team of musicians and scientists have used artificial intelligence (AI) to complete the artist’s final composition. Dr. Matthias first came up with the idea to complete the composition in 2019. He thought it was an appropriate way to celebrate Beethoven’s 250th birthday in December 2020. He began by enlisting an international team of music experts to help him with the giant task. They included music composer Walter and Dr. Ahmed, the creator of an innovative AI technology for the art market. Ahmed and his colleagues started the process by familiarizing the AI software initially with a broad range of classical music, and then, narrowed it to just Beethoven’s works. Meanwhile, Walter and his group tried to interpret the rough drafts and the handful of notes that detailed Beethoven’s plans for the 10thSymphony. The team then began the slow and careful task of feeding the AI software musical notes from the unfinished composition. To stay true to Beethoven’s original composition, Ahmed’s team sent Walter hundreds of AI-generated musical note variations every evening. Walter would listen to them and then select the one that he thought was closest to what the artist would have written. The AI team would add the music and rerun the software to generate the next suggestions. And piece by piece, the team was able to complete Beethoven’s 10th Symphony! The composition was firstly released on October 9, 2021. Not surprisingly, it caused some controversy (争议). Critics believe technology should not be used to copy the human creative process. Ahmed and his team agree with their opinions and say their AI software is not out to replace humans—it is just a tool to help artists to express themselves in new ways. 28. How did Dr. Matthias intend to celebrate Beethoven’s 250th birthday? A. By finishing his work. B. By forming an AI team. C. By working with other musicians. D. By interpreting his musical drafts. 29. What specific role did Walter play in the team? A. He made the AI software familiar with classical music. B. He made the list of international team of music experts. C. He was responsible for developing and running the AI software. D. He chose AI-generated musical notes closest to Beethoven’s intentions. 30. Ahmed and his team view their AI software as _______. A. a copy machine B. a helpful tool C. a creative replacement D. a new invention 31. What is the passage mainly about? A. A team treasured classical music. B. A piece of software caused debate. C. AI assisted in completing a composition. D. Musicians recommended masterpieces. 【答案】28. A 29. D 30. B 31. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了一个团队如何利用人工智能 (AI) 完成贝多芬的未完成作品——第十交响曲。 【28题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第一段“Now, a team of musicians and scientists have used artificial intelligence (AI) to complete the artist’s final composition.(现在，一个由音乐家和科学家组成的团队利用人工智能完成了这位艺术家的最终作品)”以及文章第二段“Dr. Matthias first came up with the idea to complete the composition in 2019. He thought it was an appropriate way to celebrate Beethoven’s 250th birthday in December 2020.(Matthias博士于2019年首次提出完成这部作品的想法。他认为这是庆祝贝多芬2020年12月250岁生日的一种合适方式)”可知，他打算通过完成贝多芬的作品来庆祝这一生日。故选A。 【29题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第四段“Walter would listen to them and then select the one that he thought was closest to what the artist would have written.(Walter 会倾听这些AI生成的曲调变化，然后选择他认为最接近艺术家所写的内容的一个)”可知，Walter 的角色是从AI生成的音乐变奏中选择最接近贝多芬原意的音乐片段。故选D。 【30题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章最后一段“Ahmed and his team agree with their opinions and say their AI software is not out to replace humans—it is just a tool to help artists to express themselves in new ways.(Ahmed和他的团队同意批评者的观点，并表示他们的AI软件并不是要取代人类——它只是帮助艺术家以新的方式表达自己的一种工具)”可推知，Ahmed和他的团队认为AI软件是一种辅助工具，而非替代品。故选B。 【31题详解】 主旨大意题。根据文章第一段“Now, a team of musicians and scientists have used artificial intelligence (AI) to complete the artist’s final composition.(现在，一个由音乐家和科学家组成的团队利用人工智能完成了这位艺术家的最终作品)”以及全文主要描述了这个项目的实施过程和影响可知，本文主要讲述了人工智能协助完成贝多芬未完成的作品。故选C。 D MUSEUMS used to stand for something boring and barely relevant to real life. Those kinds of places still exist, but there are far fewer of them, and the more successful ones have changed out of all recognition. To be sure, museums remain showcases for collections and warehouse of valuables, but they have also become pits of popular debates and places where children go for sleepovers. They are no longer places where people look on in fear but where they learn and argue, as they would at universities or art schools. Nicholas Serota describes the museum as “a forum as much as a treasure box”. Statistics suggest that new-look museums are doing something right. Globally, numbers of museum goers have risen from around 23,000 two decades ago to at least 55,000 now. On the face, that success seems surprising. People now have more choices to enrich their life. Many travel to see the world, but mostly the world comes to them, conveniently delivered to their laptops or smartphones. So why would they still wander round museums if most of the stuff they can see there is available at the click of a mouse? Some of the now enthusiasm is explained by changes in demand. Today, the share of people receiving higher education is rising. Surveys show that better-educated folks arc a lot more likely to be museum-goers. They want to see for themselves where they fit in the wider world and look lo museums for guidance. For young museum-goers, they are looking for something authentic and real as the online viewing loses the sense of closeness. A century ago, Benjamin Ives urged museums to treat themselves as having a holy purpose. Collections should be considered for their artistic qualities alone, he argued, with no need for narrative, context or explanation. “A museum of art”, he wrote, “is in essence a temple.” Not all of what Ives stood for has been swept away. But today museums offer narratives in their exhibitions, provide a context for objects by linking them to people and places, through which they serve the public. They are fully aware that their ultimate attraction lies in the fact that they exist in order to respond to the public appeal. Some people may fear that what goes on in museums is getting too close to being humble. But modern museum goers like being pleased, and are likely to drift away unless museums can relate with them both intellectually and emotionally. 32. By describing the museum as “a forum as much as a treasure box”, Nicholas Serota implies that_______ A. museums now display objects much relevant to life B. museums provide chances for discussion and store precious objects C. the value of the objects kept in museums causes debate D. museums regard sleepover visitors as new treasure 33. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage? A. Availability of varied kinds of entertainment draws former museum goers. B. Less-educated people reject museums because they can’t fit in the wider world. C. Young museum goers prefer in-person visit to virtual enjoyment. D. Museums are rated according to the artistic qualities of their collections. 34. The primary charm of today’s museums is that_______ A. they try to attach emotion to the artistic objects B. they try to offer various forms of art viewing C. they try to keep a safe distance from the public D. they try to satisfy the needs of the public 35. Which of the following is the possible title of the passage? A. Museums, placing the public first now B. Museums, outdated but surviving C. Museums, conflicting to modern entertainment D. Museums, their history and value 【答案】32. B 33. C 34. D 35. A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了博物馆的作用以及如今博物馆为了吸引更多人参观努力迎合大众需求。 【32题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“To be sure, museums remain showcases for collections and warehouse of valuables, but they have also become pits of popular debates and places where children go for sleepovers. They are no longer places where people look on in fear but where they learn and argue, as they would at universities or art schools.(诚然，博物馆仍然是收藏品的展示场所和贵重物品的仓库，但它们也成为了热门辩论的场所和孩子们过夜的地方。它们不再是人们恐惧地看着的地方，而是他们学习和争论的地方，就像他们在大学或艺术学校那样)”可知，尼古拉斯·塞罗塔将博物馆描述为“一个论坛，也是一个藏宝箱”，暗示博物馆提供了讨论和储存珍贵物品的机会。故选B。 【33题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“For young museum-goers, they are looking for something authentic and real as the online viewing loses the sense of closeness.(对于年轻的博物馆观众来说，他们正在寻找一些真实的东西，因为在线观看失去了亲近感)”可知，C选项“年轻的博物馆观众更喜欢亲自参观而不是虚拟享受”正确。故选C。 【34题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“They are fully aware that their ultimate attraction lies in the fact that they exist in order to respond to the public appeal.(他们充分意识到，他们的最终吸引力在于他们的存在是为了响应公众的呼吁)”可知，当今博物馆的主要魅力在于它们努力满足公众的需要。故选D。 【35题详解】 主旨大意题。根据最后一段“But today museums offer narratives in their exhibitions, provide a context for objects by linking them to people and places, through which they serve the public. They are fully aware that their ultimate attraction lies in the fact that they exist in order to respond to the public appeal.(但今天，博物馆在展览中提供叙事，通过将物品与人物和地点联系起来，为它们提供一个背景，通过这个背景，它们为公众服务。他们充分意识到，他们的最终吸引力在于他们的存在是为了响应公众的呼吁)”结合文章主要说明了博物馆的作用以及如今博物馆为了吸引更多人参观努力迎合大众需求。可知，A选项“博物馆，现在把公众放在第一位”最符合文章标题。故选A。 第二节 (共5小题: 每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Imagine you’ve been working for hours before a deadline, but you feel like you’re getting nowhere. You’re starting to feel really anxious. At this point, you might start to blame yourself for having this emotion. Now you have two emotions: feeling anxious about getting work done and feeling frustrated that you are anxious. When the second emotion gets layered on top of the first emotion, you often feel worse and are even less likely to reach your goals. You may now be wondering if it is possible to make the second emotion less likely. ____36____. Many people have heard of “mindfulness”. It is often associated with doing a meditation (冥想) practice, but its essence is to be more aware and accepting of your present-moment experience. ____37____ Acceptance can limit judgmental thoughts and unhelpful secondary emotions. Let me explain. Picture yourself in a challenging situation like the scenario described above and you feel anxiety arising. Instead of getting upset at yourself for having this emotion, you bring your awareness to the experience of the emotion and accept it. You might feel that this anxiety is not fun to experience. ____38____ With this attitude of acceptance, and stepping away from the tendency to fight against the emotion, you are less likely to get stuck in a loop of judgmental thoughts that might trigger more unwanted emotions. ____39____ But evidence suggests that it works. That is probably because accepting yourselves, including your emotions, relieves pressure. You stop adding fuel to the emotional fire when you release judgmental thoughts about your emotions. ____40____ For instance, you could turn down the volume on the initial emotion, perhaps by seeing the situation from a new perspective or asking someone for support. A. Thankfully, research suggests that the answer is yes. B. You can’t be productive even when you have more inner space. C. Then you may question if you are feeling anxious about getting work done. D. Yet you know you can breathe it through and that it is just a passing emotion. E. Sometimes the experience includes an unpleasant emotion you don’t want to feel. F. It might sound unreasonable that embracing an unpleasant emotion can be a good thing. G. You also create more inner space to determine whether you can do something that helps. 【答案】36. A 37. E 38. D 39. F 40. G 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了如何减少焦虑感。 【36题详解】 根据上文“Imagine you’ve been working for hours before a deadline, but you feel like you’re getting nowhere. You’re starting to feel really anxious. At this point, you might start to blame yourself for having this emotion. Now you have two emotions: feeling anxious about getting work done and feeling frustrated that you are anxious. When the second emotion gets layered on top of the first emotion, you often feel worse and are even less likely to reach your goals. You may now be wondering if it is possible to make the second emotion less likely.(想象一下，在截止日期前，你已经工作了好几个小时，但你感觉毫无进展。你开始感到非常焦虑。在这一点上，你可能会开始责怪自己有这种情绪。现在你有两种情绪：对完成工作感到焦虑，对自己的焦虑感到沮丧。当第二种情绪叠加在第一种情绪之上时，你通常会感觉更糟，甚至更不可能实现你的目标。你现在可能想知道是否有可能降低第二种情绪的可能性)”可知，上文提到“想知道是否有可能降低第二种情绪的可能性”，本句为本段最后一句，故承接上文，说明这一疑问的答案。故A选项“值得庆幸的是，研究表明答案是肯定的”符合语境，故选A。 【37题详解】 根据上文“Many people have heard of “mindfulness”. It is often associated with doing a meditation (冥想) practice, but its essence is to be more aware and accepting of your present-moment experience.(很多人都听说过“正念”。它经常与冥想练习联系在一起，但它的本质是更加意识到并接受你现在的经历)”可知，上文提到接受你现在的经历，本句承接上文，对经历进行进一步解释说明。故E选项“有时这种经历包含了一种你不想感受到的不愉快情绪”符合语境，故选E。 【38题详解】 根据上文“Let me explain. Picture yourself in a challenging situation like the scenario described above and you feel anxiety arising. Instead of getting upset at yourself for having this emotion, you bring your awareness to the experience of the emotion and accept it. You might feel that this anxiety is not fun to experience.(让我解释一下。想象你自己处于如上所述的具有挑战性的情境中，你会感到焦虑。不要因为自己有这种情绪而感到沮丧，而是把你的意识带到这种情绪的体验中并接受它。你可能会觉得这种焦虑并不有趣)”以及后文“With this attitude of acceptance, and stepping away from the tendency to fight against the emotion, you are less likely to get stuck in a loop of judgmental thoughts that might trigger more unwanted emotions.(有了这种接受的态度，远离与情绪作斗争的倾向，你就不太可能陷入评判思想的循环中，这可能会引发更多不想要的情绪)”可知，本句与上文构成转折关系，上文提到了焦虑，后文提到接受的态度，推测本句说明如何应对焦虑情绪。故D选项“但是你知道你可以把它呼吸出去，它只是一种转瞬即逝的情绪”符合语境，故选D。 【39题详解】 根据后文“But evidence suggests that it works. That is probably because accepting yourselves, including your emotions, relieves pressure.(但证据表明，它是有效的。这可能是因为接受你自己，包括你的情绪，可以减轻压力。)”可知，后文与本句构成转折关系，后文提到了有效，本句是在说明接纳情绪的消极方面。故F选项“拥抱一种不愉快的情绪可能是一件好事，这听起来可能不合理”符合语境，故选F。 【40题详解】 根据上文“You stop adding fuel to the emotional fire when you release judgmental thoughts about your emotions.(当你释放出对自己情绪的评判性想法时，你就停止了给情绪火上浇油)”可知，本句承接上文，进一步说明停止批判自己所带来的好处。故G选项“你也创造了更多的内心空间来决定你是否可以做一些有帮助的事情”符合语境，故选G。 第三部分 语言运用(共两节，满分30分) 第一节 (共15小题;每小题1分，满分15分) It was an ordinary day.

The _____56_____(impressive) one at present is a set of 65 bells unearthed in 1978 from the tomb(墓) of Zenghouyi in Hubei Province, of _____57_____ the largest weighs 203.6 kilograms.

During the Western Zhou Dynasty, 8 bells together made music and bianzhong was _____61_____ (wide) used in performances for royals. In ____62____ late Spring and Autumn Period, more bells were added to make a complete set.

What is inspiring is that some people are working on changing this situation now ______65______ the help of technology and introducing this instrument to more people. 【答案】56. most impressive 57. which 58. appeared 59. to make 60. was decorated 61. widely 62. the 63. transformed 64. popularity 65. with 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。本文介绍了中国古代乐器编钟的相关知识。 【56题详解】 考查形容词最高级。句意：目前最令人印象深刻的一套是1978年从湖北曾侯乙墓中出土的65件编钟，其中最大的一件重203.6公斤。句中“at present”表示范围，结合语境“目前最令人印象深刻的一套”，需用形容词impressive的最高级形式。多音节形容词最高级在词前加most。故填most impressive。 【57题详解】 考查定语从句。句意：目前最令人印象深刻的一套是1978年从湖北曾侯乙墓中出土的65件编钟，其中最大的一件重203.6公斤。此处为非限制性定语从句，先行词是“a set of 65 bells”，指物，从句中“of”后缺少宾语，故用关系代词which引导。故填which。 【58题详解】 考查动词时态。句意：编钟最早出现在商朝，当时3到5个钟组合在一起演奏音乐。分析句子可知，句中“in the Shang Dynasty”(商朝)是过去的时间状语，谓语动词需用一般过去时，appear的过去式为appeared。故填appeared。 【59题详解】 考查动词不定式。句意：编钟最早出现在商朝，当时3到5个钟组合在一起演奏音乐。根据句意可知，“3到5个钟组合在一起”的目的是“演奏音乐”，动词不定式to do可表示目的，作目的状语。故填to make。 【60题详解】 考查动词时态和语态。句意：那时，编钟形状独特，表面装饰着各种图案。分析句子可知，主语“the surface”(表面)与谓语动词“decorate”(装饰)是被动关系，且描述的是商朝的情况，用一般过去时的被动语态，且主语是单数，故填was decorated。 【61题详解】 考查副词。句意：西周时期，8个钟组合在一起演奏音乐，编钟被广泛用于王室表演。此处需用副词修饰动词“used”(使用)，形容词wide的副词形式为widely，意为“广泛地”。故填widely。 【62题详解】 考查冠词。句意：春秋晚期，人们增加了更多的钟，组成一套完整的编钟。根据句意可知，“late Spring and Autumn Period”(春秋晚期)是特定的历史时期，前面需加定冠词the，表示特指。故填the。 【63题详解】 考查with复合结构。句意：秦汉以后，随着编钟形制的改变，大多数钟呈圆形，每个钟只发出一个音。分析句子可知，此处为with复合结构“with+宾语+宾语补足语”，宾语“the shape of bianzhong”与“transform”(改变)是被动关系，故用过去分词transformed作宾语补足语。故填transformed。 【64题详解】 考查名词。句意：500年后，编钟开始衰落。介词“in”后需接名词作宾语，形容词popular的名词形式为popularity，意为“流行”。故填popularity。 【65题详解】 考查介词短语。句意：令人振奋的是，现在有些人正借助科技努力改变这种状况，并向更多人介绍这种乐器。分析句子可知，“with the help of...”是固定搭配，意为“在……的帮助下”。故填with。 66. ________ (overcome) with sorrow, she jumps into his grave. （所给词的适当形式填空） 【答案】Overcome 【解析】 【详解】考查非谓语动词。句意：她悲痛欲绝，跳进了他的坟墓。overcome(感情等)压倒，与逻辑主语she之间为被动关系，所以用过去分词作状语。结合句意，故填Overcome。 67. Finally, the music takes a softer turn and ends on a bittersweet note, telling us how the couple transform into butterflies and fly away _______ (be) together forever. (所给词的适当形式填空) 【答案】to be 【解析】 【详解】考查非谓语动词。句意：最后，音乐转为柔和的旋律，以苦乐参半的音符结束，告诉我们这对情侣如何化身为蝴蝶，飞走并永远在一起。根据语境可知，fly away的目的是be together forever，此空应是不定式作目的状语，表示“为了……”。故填to be。 68. Many important figures in the music world, including the brilliant musician Mozart, started making predictions about Beethoven’s extraordinary future._______, life took a sharp turn. (用适当的词填空) 【答案】However 【解析】 【详解】考查副词。句意：音乐界许多重要人物，包括杰出的音乐家莫扎特，都开始预言贝多芬有一个非凡的未来。然而，生活却急转直下。根据前文started making predictions about Beethoven’s extraordinary future.及后文life took a sharp turn.可知，前后文为转折关系，空后有逗号，用副词however，放在句首，首字母大写。故填However。 69. Even though I ________ (admire) them hundreds of times on my computer screen, nothing could have prepared me for the wonder I felt when I finally laid eyes on the real thing. (所给词的适当形式填空) 【答案】had admired 【解析】 【详解】考查时态。句意：尽管我已经在电脑屏幕上欣赏了它们数百次，但当我最终看到真实的东西时，我所感受到的奇妙还是让我始料未及。admire“欣赏”这一动作发生在laid eyes on之前，即过去的过去，时态应用过去完成时，Even though引导的让步状语从句谓语用had admired。故填had admired。 70. The Impressionists’ vision inspired a whole new generation of the Post-Impressionist painters such as Vincent van Gogh and Paul Gauguin, _______ works are also displayed at the Musee d’Orsay. (用适当的词填空) 【答案】whose 【解析】 【详解】考查定语从句。句意：印象派的想象力鼓舞了新一代后印象派画家，比如文森特•梵高和保罗•高更，他们的作品也陈列在奥赛博物馆。此句是定语从句，先行词是Vincent van Gogh and Paul Gauguin。先行词与定语从句的名词works构成所属关系，用whose连接。故填whose。 第四部分 写作 (共两节，满分40分) 第一节 (满分15分) 71. 假设你是李华，你校英语俱乐部将举办“音乐之声”主题分享会，请你用英文写一篇发言稿，介绍你最喜欢的歌手或乐队(singer/band)，内容包括： 1.该歌手或乐队的基本信息; 2.你喜欢他/她/他们的理由; 3.他/她/他们的音乐带给你的影响或感受。 注意： 1.词数80左右; 2.可以适当增加细节，以使行文连贯; My Favourite________ ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】范文一： Dear teachers and fellow students, I’m Li Hua, and it’s a great pleasure to share my favorite singer, Taylor Swift.

Leaving his friends and the familiar streets of his old city was tough enough, but the quietness of this new neighborhood felt heavy and lonely. Days turned into a week. Leo spent most of his time indoors, watching the world from his window. He noticed an old man, Mr. Thompson, who lived next door. He was always in his garden, tending to his roses with a serious expression. He seemed nice but a little hard to read. Leo’s mom encouraged him to go over and say hello, but every time Leo thought about it, a wave of shyness washed over him. What if the old man didn’t like kids? What if he said something wrong? One afternoon, a sudden gust of wind slammed Leo’s window shut. He didn’t think much of it until he realized his house keys were locked inside. Panic set in. His parents wouldn’t be back for hours. The only person around was Mr. Thompson, humming a tune and working in his garden. Leo’s heart pounded. He had no choice. Taking a deep breath, he walked slowly across the lawn, his hands trembling slightly. Just as he was about to speak, another strong wind blew, knocking over a beautiful glass vase next to his front door. It broke into a million pieces on the stone path. Mr. Thompson turned around, his eyes widening at the mess. Leo froze, his apology for the accident stuck in his throat. This was a disaster. He wasn’t just a shy boy now; he was a destructive troublemaker. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150左右； 2. 请按如下格式在相应位置作答。 Paragraph 1: Mr. Thompson’s face softened as he looked from the broken pieces to Leo’s terrified expression. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: Later that evening, holding a small box from Mr. Thompson, Leo stood by his window again, but this time he felt different. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】范文一： Mr. Thompson’s face softened as he looked from the broken pieces to Leo’s terrified expression. “Whoa there, son. Steady now. Did any of the pieces cut you?” he asked, his voice much kinder than Leo had imagined. Leo, still trembling, shook his head and stammered an apology, explaining about the wind and his locked keys. A warm smile crept onto the old man’s wrinkled face. “A little bad luck often brings good luck. That vase was old, but a new friend is valuable. Come, let’s call your parents first and then see about fixing this little situation.” He placed a reassuring hand on Leo’s shoulder, guiding him gently towards the house. The heavy knot of fear in Leo’s chest began to loosen. Later that evening, holding a small box from Mr. Thompson, Leo stood by his window again, but this time he felt different. Inside the box was a single, beautiful rose seedling, its roots carefully wrapped, and tied with a slender blue ribbon. A note card read: “For your new garden. A little courage often blooms into something beautiful. – Your neighbor, Sam Thompson.” Looking out, Leo saw the warm light in Mr. Thompson’s kitchen window. The silence of the neighborhood was no longer heavy; it was peaceful and full of possibility. He knew tomorrow he would go out and plant this rose, and perhaps ask Mr. Thompson for gardening advice. A smile spread across his face. He wasn’t lonely anymore; he was home. 范文二： Mr. Thompson’s face softened as he looked from the broken pieces to Leo’s terrified expression. “Don’t worry, son. It’s just an old vase,” he said, his voice calm and warm. He noticed Leo’s pale face and asked gently, “Are you all right? You look like you’ve seen a ghost.” Leo stammered that he was locked out and the wind caused the accident. Mr. Thompson smiled, “Well, it seems we both have a problem to solve. First, let’s get you a drink and call your mom.” He led Leo inside, carefully stepping around the shining fragments on the path. Later that evening, holding a small box from Mr. Thompson, Leo stood by his window again, but this time he felt different. In the box was a tiny rose plant with a blue ribbon tied around its pot. A note said: “To my new helper. Let’s grow this together. - Mr. T.” Leo looked at the old man’s house, where a light was still on in the garden. He realized that this new place wasn’t so lonely after all. He smiled, thinking about tomorrow when he would help Mr. Thompson clean up the broken pieces and learn how to plant his first rose. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了 12 岁的Leo搬新家后因害羞不敢与人交流，意外将邻居Thompson先生的花瓶打碎，却在与Thompson先生的互动中逐渐克服羞怯，感受到邻里温暖的故事。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“Thompson先生的目光从那些碎片移到Leo惊恐的表情上，他的脸色缓和了下来。”可知，第一段可描写Thompson先生对Leo的安慰，如关切的询问，帮助他联系父母等，以展现Thompson先生的友善，缓解Leo的恐惧。 ②由第二段首句内容“那天晚上晚些时候，Leo拿着Thompson先生给他的一个小盒子站在窗前，但这次他感觉不一样了。”可知，第二段可描写Thompson先生送给Leo的礼物以及Leo收到礼物后的心理变化。 2.续写线索：Thompson先生安慰Leo——帮助联系父母——Leo恐惧消失——收到小盒子——打开发现玫瑰幼苗和卡片——决定种下玫瑰并请教园艺知识——不再孤独，有了家的感觉 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①询问：ask/inquire ②解释：explain/account for ③缠绕：wrap/twine ④系：tie/fasten 情感类 ①温暖的：warm/mild ②孤独的：lonely/isolated 【点睛】[高分句型1].

We are here to announce that we have finally reached a deal to buy the old paper of factory by the league. We have agreed to pay a sale Price of five million pounds. This is slightly higher than our original offer six months ago, but we believe that the location next to water and the great transport make this the best place to build our new head office. We know that the factory has been there for over a century and that many of you had relatives that work there. Sadly, the building has not been taken good care of, and there is no way that I can be saved. IT will have to be removed so that we can rebuild from the ground up. However, in addition to our new office building, we will be building a museum about the history of the factory and industry in this city. We will save as much as we can from the factory and show up to everyone. I'll now hand over to our spokeswoman to take some questions. Good afternoon.

B Toronto-based artist Ava Roth is unlike other cooperative artists: instead of working with people, she works with bees. As a painter, embroiderer (刺绣师) and mixed-media artist, she has spent the past decade experimenting with the unique medium of honeycomb (蜂巢). In her latest collection, Roth employs the help of local honeybees to create amazing pieces that perfectly represent the co-existence of human beings and nature. Her works combine various man-made materials with the complex pattern of a raw honeycomb. During the cooperation, Roth’s part of work comes in the form of art picture hung in embroidery circles. Using her mastery of embroidery techniques, she creates designs with thread while including locally found materials, such as wood, plants and horsehair. After she arranges these elements to her liking, the bees come in to add their touch. Roth then attaches the circle to beekeeping frames and places it in a bee box. Over time, thousands of bees fill the frame with honeycomb, changing the piece into its final, fascinating form. The artistic cooperation between the honeybees and Roth’s creativity results in a unique and original work of art. Her direct cooperation with bees is just one aspect of her work. Roth also uses honeycomb in other collections, including sewn paintings, embroideries, and works on paper. In her work, Roth integrates the theme of the human relationship to the natural world, reflecting on how people shape nature to meet their needs and imaging a more beautiful outcome of our encounter. With the role honeybees play in pollinating many of the world’s crops, the species is vital to food production. Despite their essential duty, honeybee populations have been facing a growing decline worldwide, caused by factors such as climate change, habitat loss and pesticides. Roth raises awareness of this extraordinary species’ depopulation through her unique practice, exhibiting their exceptional architectural abilities and essential role in human life. 24. What is special about Ava Roth’s artistic practice? A. She focuses on the theme of nature. B. She employs bees to create artworks. C She doesn’t cooperate with other artists. D. She only uses natural materials for her art. 25. What is mainly talked about in paragraph 3? A. The design of different elements. B. The complex results of art making. C. The difficulty of bonding with bees. D. The unique process of art creation. 26. What can we know about Roth’s work from the text? A. It highlights the exploration of nature. B. It reflects on how nature influences people. C. It advocates the harmony between man and nature. D. It aims to solve the issue of honeybee depopulation. 27. Which of the following best describes the impact of Roth’s practice? A. Far-reaching. B. Unidentifiable. C. Short-lived. D. Flexible. C Beethoven is undoubtedly one of the greatest musicians. He completed 722 musical works. Unfortunately, the master died while still working on his 10th Symphon (交响曲) . Now, a team of musicians and scientists have used artificial intelligence (AI) to complete the artist’s final composition. Dr. Matthias first came up with the idea to complete the composition in 2019. He thought it was an appropriate way to celebrate Beethoven’s 250th birthday in December 2020. He began by enlisting an international team of music experts to help him with the giant task. They included music composer Walter and Dr. Ahmed, the creator of an innovative AI technology for the art market. Ahmed and his colleagues started the process by familiarizing the AI software initially with a broad range of classical music, and then, narrowed it to just Beethoven’s works. Meanwhile, Walter and his group tried to interpret the rough drafts and the handful of notes that detailed Beethoven’s plans for the 10thSymphony. The team then began the slow and careful task of feeding the AI software musical notes from the unfinished composition. To stay true to Beethoven’s original composition, Ahmed’s team sent Walter hundreds of AI-generated musical note variations every evening. Walter would listen to them and then select the one that he thought was closest to what the artist would have written. The AI team would add the music and rerun the software to generate the next suggestions. And piece by piece, the team was able to complete Beethoven’s 10th Symphony! The composition was firstly released on October 9, 2021. Not surprisingly, it caused some controversy (争议). Critics believe technology should not be used to copy the human creative process. Ahmed and his team agree with their opinions and say their AI software is not out to replace humans—it is just a tool to help artists to express themselves in new ways. 28. How did Dr. Matthias intend to celebrate Beethoven’s 250th birthday? A. By finishing his work. B. By forming an AI team. C. By working with other musicians. D. By interpreting his musical drafts. 29 What specific role did Walter play in the team? A. He made the AI software familiar with classical music. B. He made the list of international team of music experts. C. He was responsible for developing and running the AI software. D. He chose AI-generated musical notes closest to Beethoven’s intentions. 30. Ahmed and his team view their AI software as _______. A. a copy machine B. a helpful tool C. a creative replacement D. a new invention 31. What is the passage mainly about? A. A team treasured classical music. B. A piece of software caused debate. C. AI assisted in completing a composition. D. Musicians recommended masterpieces. D MUSEUMS used to stand for something boring and barely relevant to real life. Those kinds of places still exist, but there are far fewer of them, and the more successful ones have changed out of all recognition. To be sure, museums remain showcases for collections and warehouse of valuables, but they have also become pits of popular debates and places where children go for sleepovers. They are no longer places where people look on in fear but where they learn and argue, as they would at universities or art schools. Nicholas Serota describes the museum as “a forum as much as a treasure box”. Statistics suggest that new-look museums are doing something right. Globally, numbers of museum goers have risen from around 23,000 two decades ago to at least 55,000 now. On the face, that success seems surprising. People now have more choices to enrich their life. Many travel to see the world, but mostly the world comes to them, conveniently delivered to their laptops or smartphones. So why would they still wander round museums if most of the stuff they can see there is available at the click of a mouse? Some of the now enthusiasm is explained by changes in demand. Today, the share of people receiving higher education is rising. Surveys show that better-educated folks arc a lot more likely to be museum-goers. They want to see for themselves where they fit in the wider world and look lo museums for guidance. For young museum-goers, they are looking for something authentic and real as the online viewing loses the sense of closeness. A century ago, Benjamin Ives urged museums to treat themselves as having a holy purpose. Collections should be considered for their artistic qualities alone, he argued, with no need for narrative, context or explanation. “A museum of art”, he wrote, “is in essence a temple.” Not all of what Ives stood for has been swept away. But today museums offer narratives in their exhibitions, provide a context for objects by linking them to people and places, through which they serve the public. They are fully aware that their ultimate attraction lies in the fact that they exist in order to respond to the public appeal. Some people may fear that what goes on in museums is getting too close to being humble. But modern museum goers like being pleased, and are likely to drift away unless museums can relate with them both intellectually and emotionally. 32. By describing the museum as “a forum as much as a treasure box”, Nicholas Serota implies that_______ A. museums now display objects much relevant to life B. museums provide chances for discussion and store precious objects C. the value of the objects kept in museums causes debate D. museums regard sleepover visitors as new treasure 33. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage? A. Availability of varied kinds of entertainment draws former museum goers. B. Less-educated people reject museums because they can’t fit in the wider world. C. Young museum goers prefer in-person visit to virtual enjoyment. D. Museums are rated according to the artistic qualities of their collections. 34. The primary charm of today’s museums is that_______ A. they try to attach emotion to the artistic objects B. they try to offer various forms of art viewing C. they try to keep a safe distance from the public D. they try to satisfy the needs of the public 35. Which of the following is the possible title of the passage? A. Museums, placing the public first now B. Museums, outdated but surviving C. Museums, conflicting to modern entertainment D. Museums, their history and value 第二节 (共5小题: 每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Imagine you’ve been working for hours before a deadline but you feel like you’re getting nowhere. You’re starting to feel really anxious. At this point, you might start to blame yourself for having this emotion. Now you have two emotions: feeling anxious about getting work done and feeling frustrated that you are anxious. When the second emotion gets layered on top of the first emotion, you often feel worse and are even less likely to reach your goals. You may now be wondering if it is possible to make the second emotion less likely. ____36____. Many people have heard of “mindfulness”. It is often associated with doing a meditation (冥想) practice, but its essence is to be more aware and accepting of your present-moment experience. ____37____ Acceptance can limit judgmental thoughts and unhelpful secondary emotions. Let me explain. Picture yourself in a challenging situation like the scenario described above and you feel anxiety arising. Instead of getting upset at yourself for having this emotion, you bring your awareness to the experience of the emotion and accept it. You might feel that this anxiety is not fun to experience. ____38____ With this attitude of acceptance, and stepping away from the tendency to fight against the emotion, you are less likely to get stuck in a loop of judgmental thoughts that might trigger more unwanted emotions. ____39____ But evidence suggests that it works. That is probably because accepting yourselves, including your emotions, relieves pressure. You stop adding fuel to the emotional fire when you release judgmental thoughts about your emotions. ____40____ For instance, you could turn down the volume on the initial emotion, perhaps by seeing the situation from a new perspective or asking someone for support. A. Thankfully, research suggests that the answer is yes. B. You can’t be productive even when you have more inner space. C. Then you may question if you are feeling anxious about getting work done. D. Yet you know you can breathe it through and that it is just a passing emotion. E. Sometimes the experience includes an unpleasant emotion you don’t want to feel. F. It might sound unreasonable that embracing an unpleasant emotion can be a good thing. G. You also create more inner space to determine whether you can do something that helps. 第三部分 语言运用(共两节，满分30分) 第一节 (共15小题;每小题1分，满分15分) It was an ordinary day.

Leaving his friends and the familiar streets of his old city was tough enough, but the quietness of this new neighborhood felt heavy and lonely. Days turned into a week. Leo spent most of his time indoors, watching the world from his window. He noticed an old man, Mr. Thompson, who lived next door. He was always in his garden, tending to his roses with a serious expression. He seemed nice but a little hard to read. Leo’s mom encouraged him to go over and say hello, but every time Leo thought about it, a wave of shyness washed over him. What if the old man didn’t like kids? What if he said something wrong? One afternoon, a sudden gust of wind slammed Leo’s window shut. He didn’t think much of it until he realized his house keys were locked inside. Panic set in. His parents wouldn’t be back for hours. The only person around was Mr. Thompson, humming a tune and working in his garden. Leo’s heart pounded. He had no choice. Taking a deep breath, he walked slowly across the lawn, his hands trembling slightly. Just as he was about to speak, another strong wind blew, knocking over a beautiful glass vase next to his front door. It broke into a million pieces on the stone path. Mr. Thompson turned around, his eyes widening at the mess. Leo froze, his apology for the accident stuck in his throat. This was a disaster.
