Passage 1
(24-25高一上·上海市行知中学·期末)
Going back to school every September can be struggling for most students. However, some schools in China have made it easier.
A high school in Hebei: Treasure hunting to start the semester
Teachers from a high school in Hebei recently held a treasure hunt challenge to lighten up the atmosphere of getting back to school for students. Teachers hid coupons (券) in surprising places around the school. Students who manage to collect the coupons are rewarded with gifts, including books and toys.
A university in Zhejiang: Need help carrying your luggage?
Has carrying your suitcases up and down in your dorm (宿舍) building been a headache? Zhejiang University City College has come up with some interesting methods to solve this problem. They use a scaling ladder (云梯) to lift suitcases from the first floor. Students can sit in their dorms and wait for the suitcases to be transported to them.
Chengdu University: Assigning roommates with big data
Getting along with roommates can be difficult when everyone has different habits and personalities. Chengdu University offers a “roommate-selection system” based on big data, which means that after students fill out the questionnaire, including questions about their hobbies, sleeping habits, their roommates will be automatically assigned by the system based on their preferences. This way, students have more control over who they share their room with.

(You may read the questions first)
Europe’s most beautiful townsClovelly, the UK
Donkeys (驴) used to be the only way to get up and down the streets of Clovelly, a pretty fishing village in Devon, southwest England.
Today, villagers still haven’t managed to bring cars in because it sits at the bottom of a 400-foot cliff (悬崖) .Goods are transported by man-powered vehicles. If tourists can’t face the walk back up to the car park, they can take a ride in a special car instead.
Dinkelsbühl, Germany
Acute historic center, wood houses and solid towers—Dinkelsbühl has it all. It sits on the German Romantic Road, a route known for its attractive towns.
Surrounded by medieval (中世纪的) walls with a huge church, it was the setting for a famous film named The Enigma of Kaspar Hauser.
Giethoorn, Netherlands
They call it the Dutch answer to Venice, but Giethoorn lacks one thing that the Italian city has: over tourism. As in Venice, life centers around the water. There are no cars in the downtown so the only way to get around is on foot or on the water.
Take a boat tour around the houses sitting on islands. Hungry? Stop at the Michelin-starred restaurant Hollands-Venetië.
Anghiari, Italy
On a hillside, Anghiari is a delight—a tiny walled town. It’s a crowded area with narrow and up-and-down streets, full of grand palaces which were built by the mysterious “men of arms”.
Find out more about them at a museum named the Museo della Battaglia di Anghiari, which traces the history of a medieval battle that took place on the plain outside town.
27.How would tourists probably tour in Clovelly today?
A.By car. B.On foot.
C.By riding a donkey. D.By taking a man-powered vehicle.
28.Which of the following are related to medieval history?

A.artists B.soldiers C.architects D.historians
30.What can be inferred from the passage?
A.Tourists can enjoy fishing in both Clovelly and Giethoom.
B.Anghiari is a small and crowded town located on a flat ground.
C.A tourist can watch a film at a huge church in Dinkelsbühl.
D.Giethoorn is a better choice than Venice if tourists prefer a less crowded tour.

Packing lists will vary based on where you’ re going and how long you’ re traveling, but the best travel accessories (配件) can improve every trip. Taking the right things means a smoother journey, every time. Below, we’ve rounded up some accessories to pack.
Discover the best travel accessories:
•A trusted tote
•A travel toiletry bag
•A tray table cover
•A portable steamer
•A tech kit
•A power adapter
•… (to discover more, click here)
A trusted tote
A tote is the perfect personal bag during a flight — it’s roomy enough to store all your bits and pieces, and is usually pretty pliable, meaning you can press it under the seat without taking up all the room for your feet. It’s also easy to carry while you’ re rushing through the airport.
A travel toiletry bag
It is key to keeping your belongings organized. We all like those with their good space for toothbrush, soaps and other necessary things in bathrooms. No matter where you’ re headed, and who you’ re traveling with, you should certainly choose a hanging toiletry bag that allows you to keep things tidy and off the bathroom table.
A tray table cover
This has become one of the most popular in-flight travel necessities. It covers the surface — so you can eat and work off of it without worrying that the surface might not be clean enough. Another advantage: it has four pockets to store must-haves like your passport, phone, etc.
A portable steamer
If you’ re traveling to a wedding or heading out on a business trip, you may want a steamer to make your formal wear look its best after you take it out of your bag. A portable steamer can get the job done and at the same time it’s light and small and easy to pack.
A tech kit
Like every traveler, you have plenty of tools that need charging (充电). Save space in your bag — and save yourself the headache of digging through your bag — by keeping relevant things in place in a tech kit.
A power adapter
For international travel, a power adapter is a must to get your smart phone, among other things, charged up at the airport or in your hotel room.
6.Which of the following is a travel toiletry bag?
A. B.
C. D.
7.If your father travels from Shanghai to Beijing for a business meeting by train, which of the following will the writer probably suggest him taking?
A.A power adapter. B.A trusted tote.
C.A tray table cover. D.A portable steamer.
8.The passage is written to ________.

C.share practical travelling accessories D.discuss how to pack for a trip

Passage 3
(24-25高一上·上海市七宝中学·期末)
Vanuatu is an island nation in the South Pacific. It is also one of the smallest countries in the world. But for those interested in adventure and sport, there is a lot to do. Some of the best snorkeling (浮潜) can be found here. Vanuatu’s islands also offer visitors two of the most exciting and dangerous activities in the world: volcano surfing and land diving.
Volcano Surfing
On Tanna Island, Mount Yasur rises 300 meters (1,000 feet) into the sky. It is known as the Lighthouse of the Pacific because of its regular eruptions for hundreds of years. For centuries, both island locals and visitors have climbed this mountain to visit the top. Some visitors find Yasur terrifying; others captivating. Photographers are beside themselves at the opportunity to make stunning artwork from such a special point. Recently, people have also started climbing Yasur to surf the volcano.
In some ways, volcano surfing, also commonly known as ash boarding, is like surfing in the sea, but in other ways it’s very different. It was invented by an adventurer journalist named Zoltan Istvan, while on a trip to Vanuatu Islands in 2002. Volcano surfing is considered as an extreme sport and there are not many practicing it. A volcano surfer’s goal is to escape the erupting volcano — without getting hit by flying rocks! Riders hike up the volcano and slide down, sitting or standing, on a thin plywood or metal board. It’s fast, fun, and dangerous — the perfect extreme sport.
Land Diving
Most people are familiar with bungee jumping, but did you know bungee jumping started on Pentecost Island in Vanuatu and is almost fifteen centuries old? The original activity, called land diving, is part of a religious ceremony. A man ties tree vines (藤) to his legs. He then jumps head-first from a high tower. It originated as a rite (仪式) of passage for young men trying to prove their manhood. The idea is to jump from as high as possible, and to land as close to the ground as possible. It is also a harvest ritual. The islanders believe the higher the jumpers dive, the higher the crops will grow. Every spring, island natives (men only) still perform this amazing test of strength.
34.Which of the following can be learned from the passage?
A.Mount Yasur is a light tower on the Pacific Ocean.
B.The history of volcano surfing dates back centuries.
C.Bungee jumping grew out of land diving.
D.Land diving came to Vanuatu from another country.
35.The underlined word captivating is closest in meaning to ________.
A.distressing B.charming C.disappointing D.relieving
36.Which of the following could be the best title of this passage?
A.Untouched Beauty: VANUATU B.Volcano Adventure: VANUATU
C.Extreme Destination: VANUATU D.Preserved Culture: VANUATU

主题03 人与自然——环境保护
Passage 1
(24-25高一上·上海市曹杨第二中学期末)
The BridgeClimb
The iconic Sydney Harbour Bridge is one of the world's longest steel-arch bridges, spanning an impressive 500 metres and standing proud above the sparkling Sydney Harbour. We have many different types of Climbs available. Below are our most popular. Every ticket to the top includes a group photograph, a certificate of achievement, and a BridgeClimb cap.
BridgeClimb Ultimate
The most adventurous Climb experience in BridgeClimb’s history and the first of its kind allowing climbers to conquer the entire breadth of the legendary “Coathanger” from South to North, and back again.
Ultimate tip: This is the most adventurous Climb experience yet so we recommend being of full fitness to complete this journey.
3. 5 hours, 1621 steps. Day: $348 Adult/$149 Child.
Summit
Unmissable views of Sydney as you ascend the upper arch of the Bridge on our original Climb experience. Your journey will take you along the very top of the iconic landmark, 134 metres above the harbour. This Climb suits everyone including families with kids who are confident scaling ladders along the route to reach the top.
3 hours, 1332 steps. Dawn: $388 Adult/$278 Child. Day: $308 Adult/$208 Child. Twilight: $374 Adult/$264 Child. Night: $268 Adult/$188 Child.
Summit Express
You will feel like you are inside the iconic Harbour Bridge, as you climb the stairs of the lower arch surrounded by beams of steel and the hustle and bustle of the traffic below. With fewer stops along the Summit Express route and no ladders, you will reach the top in no-time for a Summit celebration and a moment to take in the 360°panorama of Sydney.
2. 5 hours, 1002 steps. Day: $308 Adult/$208 Child. Night: $268 Adult/$188 Child. Please note:
a. Rates are per person and in Australian Dollars (including Goods & Services Tax (GST) ) .

A.$1276. B.$1386 C.$1442. D.$1332.
【答案】20.A 21.C 22.A
【导语】这是一篇应用文。主要介绍了攀登悉尼大桥的相关事宜。
20.细节理解题。根据Please note:中“The group photograph is taken at the summit of your whole climb group. Additional individual or group photos are available for purchase.( 合影是在你们整个攀登团队的顶峰处拍摄的。额外的个人或团体照片可供购买。)”可知,在山顶的一张个人照片不能免费提供给攀登者。故选A项。
21.细节理解题。根据Please note:中“Climb rates and periods are subject to change at the discretion of BridgeClimb.( 攀登费用和攀登时间可由BridgeClimb自行决定。)”可知,在某些情况下,上述攀登费用和攀登时间可能会发生变化这项陈述是正确的。ABD项均与原文实意不符。故选C项。
22.细节理解题。根据Summit中“Your journey will take you along the very top of the iconic landmark, 134 metres above the harbour. This Climb suits everyone including families with kids who are confident scaling ladders along the route to reach the top.( 您的旅程将带您沿着标志性地标的顶部,距离海港134米。这个攀登适合每个人,包括有孩子的家庭,他们有信心沿着路线攀登梯子到达顶部。)”符合题干中描述的“一对夫妇带着他们的两个分别是12岁和16岁的孩子在桥顶欣赏日落”的要求,看日落应该在黄昏时间,该部分的标价为“Twilight: $374 Adult/$264 Child.(黄昏:成人374美元/儿童264美元)”,所以共需要374×2+264×2=1276美元。故选A项。

The Maldives guarantees the whitest sand beaches and an unforgettable underwater world. Here are places that you can visit here.
Patins Maldives, Fari Islands
The Fari Islands sit in the northeast of the North Male Atoll, a 45-minute speed boat ride or a 15-minute seaplane flight from Elana International Airport.

24.细节理解题。根据“Villa Haven”下面的“Their botanical gardens produce coconuts, tropical fruits, vegetables and herbs that will all be served up in Villa Haven’s restaurants(他们的植物园生产椰子、热带水果、蔬菜和草药,这些都将在Villa Haven的餐厅供应)”可知,可以在Villa Haven欣赏植物园。故选B。

Passage 3
(24-25高一上·上海市闵行区·期末调研)
(You may read the questions first)
Europe’s most beautiful townsClovelly, the UK
Donkeys (驴) used to be the only way to get up and down the streets of Clovelly, a pretty fishing village in Devon, southwest England.
Today, villagers still haven’t managed to bring cars in because it sits at the bottom of a 400-foot cliff (悬崖) .Goods are transported by man-powered vehicles. If tourists can’t face the walk back up to the car park, they can take a ride in a special car instead.
Dinkelsbühl, Germany
Acute historic center, wood houses and solid towers—Dinkelsbühl has it all. It sits on the German Romantic Road, a route known for its attractive towns.
Surrounded by medieval (中世纪的) walls with a huge church, it was the setting for a famous film named The Enigma of Kaspar Hauser.
Giethoorn, Netherlands
They call it the Dutch answer to Venice, but Giethoorn lacks one thing that the Italian city has: over tourism. As in Venice, life centers around the water. There are no cars in the downtown so the only way to get around is on foot or on the water.
Take a boat tour around the houses sitting on islands. Hungry? Stop at the Michelin-starred restaurant Hollands-Venetië.
Anghiari, Italy
On a hillside, Anghiari is a delight—a tiny walled town. It’s a crowded area with narrow and up-and-down streets, full of grand palaces which were built by the mysterious “men of arms”.
Find out more about them at a museum named the Museo della Battaglia di Anghiari, which traces the history of a medieval battle that took place on the plain outside town.
27.How would tourists probably tour in Clovelly today?
A.By car. B.On foot.
C.By riding a donkey. D.By taking a man-powered vehicle.
28.Which of the following are related to medieval history?
A.Clovelly and Dinkelsbühl. B.Clovelly and Giethoorn.
C.Anghiari and Giethoorn. D.Dinkelsbühl and Anghiari.
29.What does the underlined phrase “men of arms” probably mean?
A.artists B.soldiers C.architects D.historians
30.What can be inferred from the passage?
A.Tourists can enjoy fishing in both Clovelly and Giethoom.
B.Anghiari is a small and crowded town located on a flat ground.
C.A tourist can watch a film at a huge church in Dinkelsbühl.
D.Giethoorn is a better choice than Venice if tourists prefer a less crowded tour.
【答案】27.B 28.D 29.B 30.D
【导语】本文是一篇应用文。文章主要介绍了几个欧洲最漂亮的小镇。
27.细节理解题。根据Clovelly, the UK部分中的第一段“Donkeys (驴) used to be the only way to get up and down the streets of Clovelly, a pretty fishing village in Devon, southwest England.(克洛夫利(Clovelly)是英格兰西南部德文郡的一个美丽渔村,过去,驴子是在街道上往返的唯一交通工具。)”和第二段中“Today, villagers still haven’t managed to bring cars in because it sits at the bottom of a 400-foot cliff (悬崖) . Goods are transported by man-powered vehicles.(如今,村民们仍然无法把汽车开进来,因为它坐落在 400 英尺悬崖的底部。货物由人力车辆运输。)”可知,驴子是过去的交通工具,所以现在人们不再乘坐驴子;人们无法把汽车开进去,所以人们不能乘坐汽车游览Clovelly;人力车辆是运送货物的,不是人乘坐的,该部分最后一句话中“If tourists can’t face the walk back up to the car park, they can take a ride in a special car instead.(如果游客无法步行返回停车场,也可以乘坐特殊车辆。)”表明,如今人们步行游览Clovelly这个小镇,故选B。
28.细节理解题。根据Dinkelsbühl, Germany部分中的“Surrounded by medieval (中世纪的) walls with a huge church, it was the setting for a famous film named The Enigma of Kaspar Hauser.(周围环绕着中世纪(罗马)城墙和一座巨大的教堂,这里是著名电影《卡斯帕·豪瑟之谜》的拍摄地。)”和Anghiari, Italy部分中的“Find out more about them at a museum named the Museo della Battaglia di Anghiari, which traces the history of a medieval battle that took place on the plain outside town.(在安吉亚里巴塔利亚博物馆 (Museo della Battaglia di Anghiari) 中了解更多关于他们的信息,该博物馆追溯了发生在城外平原上的中世纪战争的历史。)”可知,Dinkelsbühl和Anghiari这两个小镇与中世纪历史有关,故选D。
29.词句猜测题。根据划线单词所在句子“On a hillside, Anghiari is a delight—a tiny walled town. It’s a crowded area with narrow and up-and-down streets, full of grand palaces which were built by the mysterious “men of arms”.(安吉亚里 (Anghiari) 位于山坡上,是一座有围墙的小城镇,令人赏心悦目。这是一个拥挤的地区,街道狭窄且上下起伏,到处都是由神秘的“men of arms”建造的宏伟宫殿。)”和划线单词下文“Find out more about them at a museum named the Museo della Battaglia di Anghiari, which traces the history of a medieval battle that took place on the plain outside town.(在安吉亚里巴塔利亚博物馆 (Museo della Battaglia di Anghiari) 中了解更多关于他们的信息,该博物馆追溯了发生在城外平原上的中世纪战争的历史)”可知,them代指画线短语men of arms,安吉亚里巴塔利亚博物馆保存着有关发生在城外平原上的中世纪战争的历史,这些历史记载着“他们”的信息,由此可推知,“them”指的是战争的参与者,即士兵,所以说画线短语men of arms指的是士兵,故选B。
30.推理判断题。根据Giethoorn, Netherlands部分中的“They call it the Dutch answer to Venice, but Giethoorn lacks one thing that the Italian city has: over tourism. (人们称其为荷兰版的威尼斯,但羊角村缺少意大利城市所拥有的一件事:过度旅游业。)”可知,Giethoorn小镇没有过度旅游,由此可推知,如果游客喜欢不那么拥挤的旅游,那么Giethoorn是比威尼斯更好的选择。故选D。

Passage 1
(24-25学年高一上·上海市交通大学附属中学·期末)
Like as the waves make towards the pebbled shore,
So do our minutes hasten to their end;
Each changing place with that which goes before,
In sequent toil all forwards do contend.Line 5. Nativity, once in the main of light,
Crawls to maturity, wherewith being crowned,
Crooked eclipses’ gainst his glory fight,
And Time that gave doth now his gift confound.
Time doth transfix the flourish set on youth.Line 10. And delves the parallels in beauty’s brow,
Feeds on the rarities of nature’s truth.
And nothing stands but for his scythe to mow.
And yet to times in hope, my verse shall stand
Praising thy worth, despite his cruel hand.
1.The first twelve lines of the poem primarily focus on the ________.
A.fragility of beauty

D.external beauty is fleeting but internal beauty persists
E.labor is the only meaningful act of human existence
【答案】1.D 2.A 3.C 4.E 5.B
【导语】本文是一首诗歌。这首诗是莎士比亚十四行诗中的经典之作,展现了诗人对时间和生命的深刻思考。
1.推理判断题。“Like as the waves make towards the pebbled shore, So do our minutes hasten to their end (就像波浪扑向那砾石的海滩,人们分分秒秒争相到达那终点)”将海浪涌向海岸的过程比作时间的流逝,表明时间不可逆转;“Nativity, once in the main of light, Crawls to maturity, wherewith being crowned (人在出生时,处在光环中,后来慢慢地成长,到戴上成年的花冠)”提到生命从出生到成熟再到衰老的过程,暗示时间对生命的侵蚀;“Time doth transfix the flourish set on youth (岁月老木了他的青春年华)”和“And delves the parallels in beauty’s brow (美人的面容上深深地刻下了皱纹如堑)”突出了时间的无情;“And nothing stands but for his scythe to mow (没有任何东西,在时光女神的长镰下得以幸免)”用镰刀收割的意象,象征时间对一切存在的毁灭性力量。因此,诗歌的前十二行核心主题是时间的无情和不可阻挡。故选D项。
2.推理判断题。根据“Like as the waves make towards the pebbled shore, / So do our minutes hasten to their end; / Each changing place with that which goes before, / In sequent toil all forwards do contend (就像波浪扑向那砾石的海滩,人们分分秒秒争相到达那终点;处处变幻随伴着东逝水,奋勇向前,相互竞争,不断连绵)”可知,诗歌开篇将海浪比作时间的流逝,描述海浪不断涌向海岸的过程,体现了时间的不可阻挡。故选A项。
3.推理判断题。根据“Nativity, once in the main of light, / Crawls to maturity, wherewith being crowned, / Crooked eclipses’ gainst his glory fight, / And Time that gave doth now his gift confound (人在出生时,处在光环中,后来慢慢地成长,到戴上成年的花冠,曲折的岁月黯淡了他的岁月峥嵘,时间的流逝让他的天赋才智黯然)”可知,Crooked eclipses与the main of light紧密相关,日食遮蔽了光明,正如时间遮蔽了生命的光辉与荣耀。所以二者是最紧密相关的意象。故选C项。
4.推理判断题。结合上下诗句,根据“Time doth transfix the flourish set on youth (岁月老木了他的青春年华)”可推知,本句指时间穿透了青春的繁盛,使其逐渐失去活力。所以transfix the flourish可理解为对青春活力的削弱和摧毁。故选E项。
5.推理判断题。根据“And nothing stands but for his scythe to mow (没有任何东西,在时光女神的长镰下得以幸免)”可知,这句用scythe to mow比喻时间的毁灭性力量,强调了时间像镰刀一样,最终会收割一切,没有任何事物能逃脱时间的摧残,所以第12行可理解为“一切存在最终都会被时间摧毁”。故选B项。

A tote is the perfect personal bag during a flight — it’s roomy enough to store all your bits and pieces, and is usually pretty pliable, meaning you can press it under the seat without taking up all the room for your feet. It’s also easy to carry while you’ re rushing through the airport.
A travel toiletry bag
It is key to keeping your belongings organized. We all like those with their good space for toothbrush, soaps and other necessary things in bathrooms. No matter where you’ re headed, and who you’ re traveling with, you should certainly choose a hanging toiletry bag that allows you to keep things tidy and off the bathroom table.
A tray table cover
This has become one of the most popular in-flight travel necessities. It covers the surface — so you can eat and work off of it without worrying that the surface might not be clean enough. Another advantage: it has four pockets to store must-haves like your passport, phone, etc.
A portable steamer
If you’ re traveling to a wedding or heading out on a business trip, you may want a steamer to make your formal wear look its best after you take it out of your bag. A portable steamer can get the job done and at the same time it’s light and small and easy to pack.
A tech kit
Like every traveler, you have plenty of tools that need charging (充电). Save space in your bag — and save yourself the headache of digging through your bag — by keeping relevant things in place in a tech kit.
A power adapter
For international travel, a power adapter is a must to get your smart phone, among other things, charged up at the airport or in your hotel room.
6.Which of the following is a travel toiletry bag?
A. B.
C. D.
7.If your father travels from Shanghai to Beijing for a business meeting by train, which of the following will the writer probably suggest him taking?
A.A power adapter. B.A trusted tote.
C.A tray table cover. D.A portable steamer.
8.The passage is written to ________.
A.show strengths of travelling necessities B.advertise useful items for a trip
C.share practical travelling accessories D.discuss how to pack for a trip

6.细节理解题。根据A travel toiletry bag部分中“It is key to keeping your belongings organized. We all like those with their good space for toothbrush, soaps and other necessary things in bathrooms. No matter where you’ re headed, and who you’ re traveling with, you should certainly choose a hanging toiletry bag that allows you to keep things tidy and off the bathroom table.(这是让你的物品井然有序的关键。我们都喜欢在浴室里有足够的空间放牙刷、肥皂和其他必需品。不管你要去哪里,也不管你和谁一起旅行,你都应该选择一个可以悬挂的洗漱包,这样你就可以保持东西整洁,远离浴室的桌子)”可知,一个旅行洗漱包可以让物品井然有序,并且可以悬挂,B选项图片最符合。故选B。

Passage 2
(24-25高一上·上海市南洋模范中学·期末)
Volunteering is a good way for teenagers to make a difference and meet new people. Here are a few volunteer opportunities that you could encourage your teen to take up.
Help a local food bank
Food banks always welcome donations and new volunteers. They provide perfect volunteering opportunities for those who are interested in helping the homeless. Your teen would be involved in anything, from preparing meals to working behind the scenes to repack donated food items, serving food, and carrying boxes.
Help at a soup kitchen
A soup kitchen is one of the places where the hungry can get free or affordable meals (usually soup and bread). Most soup kitchens run mainly on donations and the generosity of people. As a soup kitchen volunteer, your child may be made to clean the tables and plates, help distribute food, cook food, and more.
Volunteer for Meals on Wheels
By volunteering for Meals on Wheels, your teen will deliver nutritious meals to the elderly or the disabled. It’s perfect for teens who have just received their driving license and love any reason to get behind the wheel! They can make a huge impact in a short amount of time. Similarly, your teen can also volunteer in their kitchen and prepare meals for delivery. With a simple gesture, your teen can bring millions of smiles to people’s lives.
Work with Habitat for Humanity
Habitat for Humanity’s mission is to build or improve a place that someone could call home. Besides helping the community, your teen will learn valuable skills such as repairing fundraising, painting, and building. You can sign them up for long-term projects or a one-time program.
15.What do a local food bank and a soup kitchen have in common?

【答案】15.A 16.C 17.D
【导语】本文是一篇应用文。文章简要介绍了四项适合青少年参加的志愿者项目。
15.细节理解题。根据第一项活动“Food banks always welcome donations and new volunteers. They provide perfect volunteering opportunities for those who are interested in helping the homeless.(食品银行总是欢迎捐款和新的志愿者。他们为那些有兴趣帮助无家可归者的人提供了完美的志愿服务机会)”以及第二项活动“A soup kitchen is one of the places where the hungry can get free or affordable meals (usually soup and bread).Most soup kitchens run primarily on donations and the generosity of people.(施粥处是饥饿的人可以得到免费或负担得起的食物(通常是汤和面包)的地方之一。大多数施粥所主要靠捐款和人们的慷慨来运转)”可知,这两项活动的食物都是来自捐赠,即它们有相似的食物来源。故A项正确。
16.细节理解题。根据第三项活动的介绍“By volunteering for Meals on Wheels, your teen will deliver nutritious meals to the elderly or the disabled. It’s perfect for teens who have just received their driving license and love any reason to get behind the wheel!(通过“送餐上门”的志愿活动,你的孩子将为老人或残疾人提供有营养的饭菜。这对刚刚收到他们的驾驶执照和喜欢任何理由坐在方向盘后面的青少年是完美的!)”可知,Meals on Wheels这一项目主要是给老人和残疾人送餐,所以会开车是一个很大的优势。因此喜欢开车的Jack最适合Meals on Wheels。故C项正确。
17.细节理解题。根据第四项活动的介绍“Habitat for Humanity’s mission is to build or improve a place that someone could call home. Besides helping the community, your teen will learn valuable skills such as repairing, fundraising, painting, and building.(Habitat for Humanity的使命是建造或改善一个人们可以称之为家的地方。除了帮助社区,你的孩子还会学到有价值的技能,比如修理、筹款、绘画和建筑)”可知,在Habitat for Humanity这项活动中,青少年可以学到多种技能。故D项正确。
Passage 3
(24-25高一上·上海市上海中学·期末)
Communicate Fluently Effectively in English
“The Cities are My Classrooms!”
Why spend your time in a classroom when you can invest your time studying during breakfast or dinner?
And why stay inside in the afternoon when you can study by the beach or in a bar?
That’s right. That’s the way we teach.
‘Active Learning’ is the best way to learn, practice, and perfect your English.
“Walk and Talk English Eat and Drink English!”
Are you considering new challenges? Would you like to take your English to the next level with our in-house methods that are highly effective, yet relaxing and fun?
How about spending your hard-earned vacation time studying English during a delicious breakfast, or during lunch in a historical pub, or at night from a sky room as you enjoy views of London or Dublin? You could be sitting comfortably inside or in front of a palace or castle, drinking coffee or tea while you study. Why not?
What is your greatest challenge with the English language?
Get in touch with us and help us to understand your difficulty as well as your goals in life.
It is essential that the solution we offer also fits in well with your personality, mindset, objectives with English, your available time to travel, and your family commitments.
Lastly, your holiday in Europe, as well as your experiences with the English language and your travels to different cities, should have that ‘Wow!’ factor that helps you to remember your holiday forever.
A language immersion (沉浸) programme is the experience of diving into a different culture.
It is not the ‘false-reality’ of the internet or technology.
To experience historical cities, villages, castles, pubs, businesses etc., is to understand a country’s culture and its DNA.
24.Who might be the target audience for this advertisement?
A.people who who’d like to learn English while travelling.
B.Inland travelers who want to talk with the locals in England pubs.
C.England students who want to improve their English to be admitted to Oxford.

A.on the MIT campus lawn B.in Windsor Castle in England
C.on La Concha Beach in Spain D.in an English pub near your house
【答案】24.A 25.B 26.B
【导语】本文是一篇应用文。主要介绍的是一项旅游学习英语项目。
24.推理判断题。根据标题栏中的“Communicate Fluently Effectively in English(能用英语流利有效地沟通)”可知,本课程项目与提高英语相关,结合第二栏中的““The Cities are My Classrooms!” Why spend your time in a classroom when you can invest your time studying during breakfast or dinner? And why stay inside in the afternoon when you can study by the beach or in a bar? That’s right. That’s the way we teach.(“城市是我的教室!”当你可以把时间花在早餐或晚餐上学习时,为什么还要把时间花在教室里呢?当你可以在海滩或酒吧学习时,为什么要在下午呆在家里呢?这是正确的。这就是我们的教学方式。)”可知,该课程项目不是在教室上课,而是可以在城市里,在早餐或晚餐时,在海滩或者酒吧,这是他们的教学方式,由此可知推断,本课程项目的目标对象应是想要旅行的同时学习英语的人。故选A项。
25.细节理解题。根据第四栏中的“It is essential that the solution we offer also fits in well with your personality, mindset, objectives with English, your available time to travel, and your family commitments.(重要的是,我们提供的解决方案也要符合你的个性、心态、英语目标、你的旅行时间和你的家庭承诺。)”可知,该课程项目提供的方案符合学习者的个性,旅行时间,所以该课程项目适合学习者日程安排的个性化学习体验,所以A项表述正确;根据第四栏中的“A language immersion (沉浸) programme is the experience of diving into a different culture.(语言浸入式课程项目是一种潜入不同文化的体验。)”可知,该课程项目提供了一种潜入不同文化的体验,结合“Lastly, your holiday in Europe, as well as your experiences with the English language and your travels to different cities, should have that ‘Wow!’ factor that helps you to remember your holiday forever.(最后,你在欧洲的假期,以及你的英语经历和你到不同城市的旅行,应该会有“哇!”这个能帮助你永远记住你的假期的因素。)”可知,该课程项目提供了文化学习体验,学习者体验欧洲文化,所以C选项表述的内容正确;根据第三栏中的“Would you like to take your English to the next level with our in-house methods that are highly effective, yet relaxing and fun?(您想通过我们高效、轻松、有趣的内部方法将您的英语水平提升到一个新的水平吗?)”可知,该课程项目的教学通过高效、轻松、有趣的方法帮助提升英语水平,由此可知,该课程项目能提供一个轻松的学习体验,学习者可以在学习的同时享受乐趣,所以D选项描述是正确的,只有B选项在文中没有提到,只涉及到沉浸式学习,但是没有提到提供在名牌大学学习的沉浸式学习体验,所以该课程项目没有给学习者提供在名牌大学学习的沉浸式学习体验。故选B项。
26.推理判断题。根据第三栏中的“How about spending your hard-earned vacation time studying English during a delicious breakfast, or during lunch in a historical pub, or at night from a sky room as you enjoy views of London or Dublin? You could be sitting comfortably inside or in front of a palace or castle, drinking coffee or tea while you study.(把辛苦得来的假期时间用在一边吃美味的早餐,一边学习英语,或者在一家历史悠久的酒吧吃午餐,或者在晚上从空中房间欣赏伦敦或都柏林的景色,怎么样?你可以舒适地坐在宫殿或城堡的里面或前面,一边学习一边喝咖啡或茶。)”可知,学习者可以舒适地坐在宫殿或者城堡的里面或者前面,边学习边喝咖啡或者茶,由此可知,如果报名该课程项目的话,很有可能在英国的温莎城堡学习。故选B项。

On Tanna Island, Mount Yasur rises 300 meters (1,000 feet) into the sky. It is known as the Lighthouse of the Pacific because of its regular eruptions for hundreds of years. For centuries, both island locals and visitors have climbed this mountain to visit the top. Some visitors find Yasur terrifying; others captivating. Photographers are beside themselves at the opportunity to make stunning artwork from such a special point. Recently, people have also started climbing Yasur to surf the volcano.
In some ways, volcano surfing, also commonly known as ash boarding, is like surfing in the sea, but in other ways it’s very different. It was invented by an adventurer journalist named Zoltan Istvan, while on a trip to Vanuatu Islands in 2002. Volcano surfing is considered as an extreme sport and there are not many practicing it. A volcano surfer’s goal is to escape the erupting volcano — without getting hit by flying rocks! Riders hike up the volcano and slide down, sitting or standing, on a thin plywood or metal board. It’s fast, fun, and dangerous — the perfect extreme sport.
Land Diving
Most people are familiar with bungee jumping, but did you know bungee jumping started on Pentecost Island in Vanuatu and is almost fifteen centuries old? The original activity, called land diving, is part of a religious ceremony. A man ties tree vines (藤) to his legs. He then jumps head-first from a high tower. It originated as a rite (仪式) of passage for young men trying to prove their manhood. The idea is to jump from as high as possible, and to land as close to the ground as possible. It is also a harvest ritual. The islanders believe the higher the jumpers dive, the higher the crops will grow. Every spring, island natives (men only) still perform this amazing test of strength.

【导语】这是一篇应用文。瓦努阿图是南太平洋的一个岛国,是冒险运动的天堂,文章介绍了瓦努阿图的两项世界上最令人兴奋和危险的活动——火山冲浪和陆地潜水。
34.细节理解题。根据最后一段前两句“Most people are familiar with bungee jumping, but did you know bungee jumping started on Pentecost Island in Vanuatu and is almost fifteen centuries old? The original activity, called land diving, is part of a religious ceremony.”(大多数人都熟悉蹦极,但你知道蹦极起源于瓦努阿图的五旬节岛,已经有将近1500年的历史了吗?最初的活动被称为陆地潜水,是宗教仪式的一部分)可知,蹦极是从陆地潜水发展而来的。故选C。
35.词句猜测题。根据第二段第五句“Photographers are beside themselves at the opportunity to make stunning artwork from such a special point.”(摄影师们为从这样一个特殊的角度拍摄令人惊叹的艺术作品而欣喜若狂)可知,此处是指另一些人觉得亚苏尔很有魅力。所以captivating意为“有魅力的”。故选B。
36.主旨大意题。根据第一段最后一句“Vanuatu’s islands also offer visitors two of the most exciting and dangerous activities in the world: volcano surfing and land diving.”(瓦努阿图的岛屿还为游客提供了两项世界上最令人兴奋和危险的活动:火山冲浪和陆地潜水)可知,文章主要是讲瓦努阿图的两项世界上最令人兴奋和危险的活动。故选C。
