Three times Della counted it. That was all. And the next day would be Christmas. She had been saving money in every way she could for months, but now she had only $1.87 to buy Jim a present. Suddenly, the idea hit her when she stopped in front of the sign on the street. “Mme. Sofronie. Hair Goods of All Kinds,” it read. She took a deep breath and went in. For twenty dollars, she sold her long and beautiful hair. She then spent two hours searching for Jim’s present. At last, she got a nice watch chain (链子), which cost her twenty-one dollars. At seven o’clock, Jim came back home. His eyes were fixed upon Della, and there was an expression in them that she could not read. Della stood up and went for him. “Darling,” she said, “I had my hair cut off and sold because I want to get you a Christmas present.” “You’ve cut off your hair?” Jim seemed to wake suddenly. He took a package (包裹) out of his coat pocket and opened it on the table. There lay the set of combs that she had always wanted. How much she dreamed of really owning them! And now, they were hers, but her beautiful hair was gone. She looked up with a smile and said, “My hair grows very fast, Jim!” And then Della held the watch chain out to Jim. “Isn’t it beautiful? I hunted all over town to find it, perfect for your watch!” she said. Jim sat down on the sofa and smiled. “Della,” he said, “let’s put our Christmas gifts away and keep them for a while. They are too nice to use just at present. I sold the watch to get the money to buy your combs.” —Adapted from The Gift of the Magi 阅读短文，判断下列句子正误。正确选A，错误选B。 26. At the beginning of the story, Della was in trouble because she couldn’t afford to prepare for the coming Christmas. 27.

After knowing Della sold her hair to buy a Christmas gift for him, Jim got mad at her and took a package from his coat. 29. Della had only $0.87 left after buying the watch chain. 30. From the passage, we can infer that the couple loved each other deeply. （C） Do you know what music people like listening to? If you ask them, you may likely get many different answers. Why do different people have different musical preferences? What do these differences say about us? Researchers from Cambridge University set out to answer these questions. They asked over 350,000 people from over 50 different countries. Then, they discovered musical preferences have some relation to personality. Outgoing people, for example, prefer danceable music with strong beats such as rap. Country music fans are shown to be more serious in their jobs. One of the findings is quite interesting. The researchers thought that people with much stress should like either sad music or rhythmic (有节奏的) music. But it turns out that these people like neither. Instead, they prefer loud music. Perhaps they like to listen to this kind of music to lower their stress. The researchers also found that climates (气候) may influence people’s musical preferences and personalities. People in hot weather prefer danceable music. They are more outgoing. This may be a result of longer daylight hours. These longer daylight hours encourage people to go outdoors to dance. Of course, nothing is clear-cut. We may not group people simply by their musical tastes. The Cambridge study just showed us that people of different cultures are more similar than we think. “People are divided by language and culture,” said Dr. David Greenberg, the leading researcher. “But if an outgoing person in one part of the world likes the same music as outgoing people from elsewhere, then we can say that music is really like a bridge.” 31. How does the writer lead in the topic? A. By listing numbers. B. By showing problems. C. By asking questions. 32. What music do people who are stressed out like best according to the text? A. Loud music. B. Sad music. C. Country music. 33. In which season do people most probably like danceable music? A. B. C. 34. What can we learn from the last paragraph? A. Language and culture act as bridges. B. People should be grouped by their musical tastes. C. Music helps people all over the world communicate. 35. What is this text written for? A. To offer information. B. To give advice. C. To express feelings. （D） 阅读下面材料，从所给的A-F六个选项中选择正确的选项（其中一项是多余选项），将其序号填入小题。 Several months ago, New Zealand announced a plan. Under the plan, the country would make it illegal (非法的) for people born after 2008 to buy cigarettes (香烟). ___36___ And it won’t make a difference to smokers now. Starting in 2023, people under the age of 15 would be stopped from buying cigarettes.

That’s why it’s so difficult for people to stop smoking. ___39___ It’s one of the leading causes of deaths around the world.

It is a traditional custom in China. But do you know how to serve a cup of tea to a visiting guest? Well, in different places, the ways of serving tea are different. In Jiangsu and Zhejiang provinces, a porcelain (瓷) cup or a glass is used to make Longjing, Maojian or just ordinary green tea. Chrysanthemum (菊花) tea is sometimes used in the hot summer season to reduce the heat from outside. Hosts in the Northern provinces usually entertain their guests with a cup of scented tea (花茶). Serving a cup of tea is a very popular custom in the North China cities. In the colder northeastern provinces, the hosts would provide warm black tea with sugar for their guests. In some coastal provinces such as Guangdong Province and Fujian Province, a pot of Oolong tea or Pu’er tea is the usual treat. Serving tea to guests is a common practice in China. However, in the border districts, different tea is used. In Inner Mongolia, a guest is usually entertained with milky tea.

Unlike traditional travel, it aims to avoid famous tourist spots and large crowds to get a better experience. Many young people enjoy gathering a couple of good friends and hanging out in the streets when they visit a new city. They can follow a typical city route (路线) exploring old buildings, going window-shopping, drinking a cup of coffee, or enjoying local snacks. In order to show their Citywalk, more and more people prefer to share their experiences and thoughts through social media (媒体). Xiao Yiyi, a young guide in Changsha, recently shared six Citywalk routes of different cities on the Internet, providing experiences for visitors to “walk in open-air museums”. Her Changsha travel route includes more unusual sights such as historical buildings, old streets, and even some snack bars. Citywalk is spreading from the largest cities to smaller ones, encouraging more travelers and event organizers to join. Some places, such as Beijing and Shandong, have included Citywalk in their plans to develop cultural tourism and relaxing tours. Shanghai has set up Citywalk bus routes to help day-trippers reach more faraway areas first, and then continue on foot. Citywalk not only offers a way for young people to explore a city but also provides them with a new social situation, where they can share their interests and ideas and make friends easily. What’s more, Citywalk provides an opportunity for tour guides and travel companies to offer a more professional service to meet the ever-changing market requirements. 根据短文内容完成句子。 61.
