笔试部分(共90分)
一、基础知识 (共10分)
I. 单项选择(共10小题;每小题1分,满分10分)
1. —I can’t believe it. Maria has practiced running for two hours.
—Yeah. She ________ be very tired now. She needs a good rest.
A. can’t B. should C. must D. will
【答案】C
【解析】
【详解】句意:——我不敢相信。玛丽亚已经练习跑步两个小时了。——是啊。她现在一定非常累了。她需要好好休息。
考查情态动词辨析。can’t不可能;should应该;must一定;will将。根据“Maria has practiced running for two hours.”以及“She needs a good rest.”可知,她练习跑步两个小时了,所以此处是推测她一定非常累了,表示有把握的肯定推测用情态动词must。故选C。
2. If you _______ a flash, you may be allowed to take some photos in the museum tomorrow.
A. isn’t used B. didn’t use C. don’t use D. won’t use
【答案】C
【解析】
【详解】句意:如果你不使用闪光灯,明天你可能被允许在博物馆里拍一些照片。
考查if 引导的条件状语从句。根据“If you...a flash, you may be allowed to take some photos in the museum tomorrow.”可知,此句为if引导的条件状语从句,遵循“主将从现”原则,即主句用一般将来时,从句用一般现在时。从句主语为you,否定句需借助助动词don’t,后接动词原形use,即don’t use。故选C。
3. —When I was seven, I coughed ________. Mom said no ice-cream for me.
—She’s right. Mom always knows best.
A. bad B. worse C. worst D. badly
【答案】D
【解析】
【详解】句意:——当我七岁时候,我咳嗽得很严重。妈妈说我不可以吃冰淇淋。——她是对的。妈妈总是最了解的。
考查形容词、副词辨析。bad坏的,形容词;worse更坏的,比较级;worst最坏的,最高级;badly严重地,副词原级。根据语境可知,此处是在描述我咳嗽得很严重,修饰动词“coughed”应该用副词形式,此处用副词原级。故选badly 。
4. —Wow, your new blouse is so pretty. It feels soft. What is it _________?
—Silk
A. made into B. made of C. made in D. made up
【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】句意:——哇,你的新衬衫真漂亮。摸起来很柔软。它是什么制成的?——丝绸。
考查动词短语辨析。made into被制成;made of由……制成(能直接看出原材料);made in在……制造(后接地点);made up组成,编造。根据答语“Silk.”可知,此处是在询问衬衫是由什么材料制成的,丝绸是能直接看出的原材料,所以应该用made of。故选B。
5. —Sorry, Betty, you don’t know how I regretted _________ to you in that way.
—It’s OK. I know you didn’t mean to do it.
A. talking B. talked C. to talk D. talks
【答案】A
【解析】
【详解】句意:——贝蒂,对不起,你不知道我有多后悔那样跟你说话。——没关系。我知道你不是故意的。
考查非谓语动词。regret doing sth.后悔做某事(事情已经做了);regret to do sth.遗憾要做某事(事情还未做)。根据“Sorry, Betty, you don’t know how I regretted...to you in that way.”可知,此处表示后悔那样跟贝蒂说话,说话这个动作已经发生了,应该用regret doing sth.结构,即regret talking。故选A。
6. Only when we work together __________.
A. we can get better grades B. we should achieve our dreams
C. can we solve the problem D. we need to improve ourselves
【答案】C
【解析】
【详解】句意:只有当我们一起合作时,才能解决这个问题。
考查倒装句。在英语中,“only+状语”置于句首时,句子要用部分倒装结构,即把助动词、情态动词或be动词提到主语前面。A选项“we can get better grades” 、B选项“we should achieve our dreams”和D选项“we need to improve ourselves”均为正常语序,不符合“only+状语”置于句首时的句子结构要求;C选项“can we solve the problem”是部分倒装结构,符合此倒装结构。故选C。
7. _______ Tom _______ Mary speaks good Chinese, so they can communicate with us very well.
A. Neither; nor B. Not only; but also C. Both; and D. Either; or
【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】句意:汤姆和玛丽中文都说得很好,所以他们能和我们交流得很顺畅。
考查短语辨析。Neither...nor...既不……也不……;Not only...but also...不但……而且……;Both...and...……和……都(两者都);Either...or...或者……或者……。根据“so they can communicate with us very well”可知,他们中文都说得好,排除A、D选项,又因为“speaks”为第三人称单数形式,而“Both...and...”连接两个并列主语时,谓语动词用复数形式,“Not only...but also...”遵循就近原则,此处谓语动词与“Mary”保持一致,用第三人称单数形式,所以此处应该用Not only...but also...。故选B。
8. —Look, your room is in a mess, Jason. It needs a clean-up.
—You are right. I’ll get my room ________ right now.
A. cleaned B. cleaning C. cleans D. to clean
【答案】A
【解析】
【详解】句意:——看,Jason,你的房间很乱,需要打扫。——你说得对。我马上打扫我的房间。
考查非谓语动词。根据“I’ll get my room ... right now.”可知,“get + 宾语 + 过去分词”表示“使某事被做”,过去分词做宾语补足语。故选A。
9. Jennifer takes a lot of exercise every day and she is always full of _________.
A. knowledge B. energy C. change D. pride
【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】句意:Jennifer每天做很多运动,她总是充满精力。
考查名词辨析。knowledge知识;energy精力;change变化;pride骄傲。根据“takes a lot of exercise”可知,锻炼多的人通常精力充沛,故选B。
10. —Good news! The leaders of the two warring countries are holding talks.
—Great. ________, the talks are a very important step on the road toward peace.
A. My pleasure B. Don’t mention it C. Without doubt D. No way
【答案】C
【解析】
【详解】句意:——好消息!两个交战国家的领导人正在举行会谈。——太棒了。毫无疑问,这些会谈是通往和平道路上的非常重要的一步。
考查情景交际。My pleasure我的荣幸;Don’t mention it别客气;Without doubt毫无疑问;No way没门。根据“Great.”可知,第二个人赞同第一个人说的话,需用肯定短语强调会谈的重要性。故选C。

【11题详解】
句意:我一边慢慢吃早餐一边看书,正享受着凉爽的风和温暖的阳光,这时我旁边的一个座位空了出来。
touching触摸;watching观看;enjoying享受;avoiding避免。根据“the feeling of the cool wind and the warm sun”可知,凉爽的风和温暖的阳光是令人愉悦的,此处应是“享受”这种感觉。故选C。
【12题详解】
句意:一位一直站在附近、显然在等座位的女士朝那张桌子走去。
onto在……之上;towards朝着;behind在……后面;beside在……旁边。根据“a table next to me opened up”和“she’d been keeping her...on that table for several minutes”可知,女士一直在等这个座位,所以座位空出后她朝桌子走去,“step towards”表示“朝……走去”。故选B。
13题详解】
句意:但从另一个方向,从停车场径直走来一位男士,他先到了桌子。
man男人;woman女人;guard警卫;boss老板。根据“The man, also smiling...”可知,先到桌子的是一位男士。故选A。
【14题详解】
句意:这位女士面带微笑地解释说,她一直盯着那张桌子好几分钟了,正要走过去。
ears耳朵;force力量;eyes眼睛;mind头脑。keep one’s eyes on为固定短语,意为“注视,盯着”。故选C。
【15题详解】

control控制;style风格;patience耐心;luck运气。out of luck为固定短语,意为“运气不好”。故选D。
【16题详解】
句意:她站在一旁,显然很失望,并把令人失望的消息告诉了她的朋友。
amazing惊人的;pitiful可怜的;painful痛苦的;disappointing令人失望的。根据“clearly disappointed”可知,女士没占到座位,这个消息是令人失望的。故选D。
【17题详解】
句意:我坐在自己的桌子旁,注意到了这个场景,突然意识到我有一个表达善意的机会。
realized意识到;remembered记得;noticed注意到;recalled回忆。根据“the scene”和“suddenly I realized that I had an opportunity to be kind”可知,作者是“注意到”了眼前发生的一幕,才产生了善意的想法。故选C。
【18题详解】

go去;come来;enter进入;visit拜访。根据“to my table”可知,是邀请她“过来”自己的桌子。come to表示“来到……”。故选B。

sorry抱歉的;angry生气的;regretful后悔的;happy高兴的。根据“to give her my table”和后文“was glad for her and her friend to have the seat”可知,作者是“乐意”让座的。故选D。
【20题详解】
句意:反正我再待几分钟就要走了,所以我很高兴让她和她的朋友有这个座位。
but但是;although虽然;so所以;because因为。前文“I was only going to be there a few more minutes anyway”是后文“was glad for her and her friend to have the seat”的原因,前后为因果关系,用so连接。故选C。
【21题详解】
句意:她说:“但是你要坐哪里呢?”我说我差不多吃完了。
never从不;almost几乎;already已经;always总是。根据“But where will you sit?”可知,女士担心作者没地方坐,作者解释自己“几乎”吃完了,既符合实际场景,也能打消女士的顾虑,almost done意为“差不多完成了”。故选B。

【23题详解】
句意:当我吃完时,回想这件事,我意识到这位女士对座位的要求是否合理并不重要。
unbelievable难以置信的;uncomfortable不舒服的;unimportant不重要的;unusual不寻常的。根据“The feeling of the situation—the look of hurt on her face-had struck me”可知,作者更在意的是女士失望受伤的表情,而非她的需求是否合理,所以此处表示“不重要的”。故选C。

句意:当时的情境——她脸上受伤的表情——触动了我,而我正好有能力做点什么。
had有;lost失去;received收到;exchanged交换。have the ability to do sth.意为“有能力做某事”。故选A。

Do you know about triangles (三角形)? A triangle is a shape which has three straight sides. We learn this beautiful shape in math. In fact, you can find many things in the shape of triangles around us, such as sandwiches.
Triangles are useful in our daily life. For example, we use lots of triangles when we build bridges. People and cars go across the bridge. The bridge carries a lot of weight. They are also useful for heavy buildings. Think about the Eiffel Tower in France, standing at 324 meters tall. What shape do you see there? Yes! You see triangles. Why do people use triangles to build heavy and tall buildings? It’s not an accident. Each of the three sides supports the other two, so a triangle will not change shape unless its sides are broken. A triangle can bear weight and is not easy to change, so it can hold a lot of weight. It can keep its shape over time and give support to these buildings to stay standing for years to come.
Are triangles always useful? If there is a big earthquake, what do you do? Hide under a table or in the toilet? Someone says people should stay next to a tall and heavy thing. When the ceilings (天花板) falls on that thing, they will make a triangle-shaped space for people to stay in. He calls it the “Triangle of life”. However, some scientists don’t agree with him. They believe that it’s difficult to know where the triangles will be, because things move during earthquakes. Also, it’s not safe to stay next to heavy things. Studies show heavy things falling kills more people than ceilings do. When considering the use of triangles, we should also think about the conditions.
After all, we should make good use of triangles, maybe just little things. Think about the last time you stood on a moving bus. Did you stand with your feet apart? Then, you just made yourself a triangle!
根据文章内容选择最佳答案。
31. Why do people use the triangle to build heavy buildings?
A. Because it looks beautiful.
B. Because it has three straight sides.
C. Because it is strong and not easy to change.
D. Because it is used for building Eiffel Tower in France.
32. What does the underlined word “bear” mean?
A. support B. lose C. put D. create

A. Because the idea “Triangle of life” only works in big earthquakes.
B. Because triangles are only used in building bridges or heavy things.

①Do you often hear birdsong outside the window? How do you feel when you hear it? In fact, it is shown that birdsong can influence people’s life.
②Birdsong sounds especially nice in winter because it reminds people of spring. A study found that listening to birdsong for six minutes can help make people less stressed. It’s hard to feel sad when you hear birds singing or talking, as the energy in their songs makes people feel like walking in the garden. Unlike music, which can sometimes make you produce strong feelings, birdsong is usually seen as positive or neutral (中性的). If you live in a noisy city, birdsong can be a welcome relief from the stress caused by outside noise.
③It is believed that birdsong has also been found to improve focus. It can help people focus on their tasks and be more productive. That’s because when people play birdsong in the background at work, it seems that a “wall” is built to help them stay away from the unpleasant noise outside. In this way, birdsong can be a powerful tool to improvement at work.
④Carrie Tom, a doctor in North Carolina, has also found that birdsong makes it easier to help people enter a deep sleep. Birdsong, as a kind of white noise, can slow down people’s heartbeats and breath. After listening to birdsong for a long time, a conditioned response (条件反射) is developed in their brains. Therefore, birdsong becomes a signal of entering sleep, which helps them fall asleep faster than before and improves their sleep quality.
⑤Birdsong, a gift from nature, connects people with calmer, more natural settings and makes people feel happier and healthier. So, next time you hear a bird singing, take a moment to enjoy it and let it bring a little joy to your day!

In recent years, Pop Mart has become a well-known cultural thing, winning the love of young fans around the world. It’s more than just a normal toy store. It creates a magical world full of cute characters that attract people with their charm.
The most interesting part of Pop Mart is its blind boxes, which hold the excitement of not knowing what’s inside. When you buy a blind box, you’re full of a feeling of mystery, because you won’t know which character is inside until you open it.
Usually, one series (系列) has a special “hidden” character that’s very hard to find and another 11 characters that are easier to get. This makes collecting them an exciting challenge. Many collectors really want to get the whole collection, especially those hard-to-find hidden characters. In 2023, Pop Mart sold over 10 million blind boxes just in China, showing how popular this idea is.
The characters of Pop Mart are designed carefully. Designers get ideas from many things, like old fairy tales, history, and modern art. Take the famous Molly series as an example. Designed by a Hong Kong artist. Molly has big round eyes and a special hairstyle. Each Molly figure wears different clothes and has different themes, like space adventures, animals, and festivals. These beautifully made figures are so lovely that people like them as soon as they see them.
Pop Mart has opened stores in many big cities around the world. These stores don’t only sell things. They also work as places where fans can get together. Here, people who love Pop Mart can meet, share stories about their collections, and trade figures.
根据短文内容,判断句子正(T)、误(F)。
41 Pop Mart is a well-known supermarket which is popular with young people.
42. Blind boxes are exciting because you will never know which character is inside until you open it.
43. In 2023, Pop Mart sold 100 million blind boxes in China, showing how popular this idea is.

根据“In recent years, Pop Mart has become a well-known cultural thing, winning the love of young fans around the world. It’s more than just a normal toy store.”可知,泡泡玛特是一个广受欢迎的文化事物,不仅仅是一个普通的玩具店,而不是超市。故答案为F。

In January of this year, I took part in a “Sharing Thanks” activity. After finishing it, I sat on a train home, thinking about the kind people around me. Then I started to write some thank-you notes to those who had given me a lot of help before. When I got off the train, I felt really happy. The next day, sending those notes brought me more happiness. At that time I got an idea: Why not write thank-you notes every month?
I came up with a theme for each month. January was for teachers. In February, I thanked my neighbor who was a friend of mine and also was a bookstore owner. She often held free reading clubs for kids. In the following months, I kept writing. In March, I showed my thanks to the doctors who took good care of my family. In April, with the theme of workmates, I wrote to Julie. In the letter, I told her how much I missed her delicious dishes. How thankful my husband and I were for the biscuits she made for our ninth anniversary (周年). Julie said it was the most touching letter she’d ever received. In May, I chose the theme of family. I first wrote thank-you notes to my parents, thanking them for raising me up and always being there whenever I need help. Then I wrote to my husband for his patient listening and understanding.
I don’t know if I’ll write notes every month, but I do know this: the habit of saying “thank you” will never leave me.

例文:
“No rules, no standards.” Rules are really important around us. Take a simple school rule “wearing the student ID card” as an example. One day, I forgot mine and wanted to enter school without it.

Do you know about triangles (三角形)? A triangle is a shape which has three straight sides. We learn this beautiful shape in math. In fact, you can find many things in the shape of triangles around us, such as sandwiches.
Triangles are useful in our daily life. For example, we use lots of triangles when we build bridges. People and cars go across the bridge. The bridge carries a lot of weight. They are also useful for heavy buildings. Think about the Eiffel Tower in France, standing at 324 meters tall. What shape do you see there? Yes! You see triangles. Why do people use triangles to build heavy and tall buildings? It’s not an accident. Each of the three sides supports the other two, so a triangle will not change shape unless its sides are broken. A triangle can bear weight and is not easy to change, so it can hold a lot of weight. It can keep its shape over time and give support to these buildings to stay standing for years to come.
Are triangles always useful? If there is a big earthquake, what do you do? Hide under a table or in the toilet? Someone says people should stay next to a tall and heavy thing. When the ceilings (天花板) falls on that thing, they will make a triangle-shaped space for people to stay in. He calls it the “Triangle of life”. However, some scientists don’t agree with him. They believe that it’s difficult to know where the triangles will be, because things move during earthquakes. Also, it’s not safe to stay next to heavy things. Studies show heavy things falling kills more people than ceilings do. When considering the use of triangles, we should also think about the conditions.
After all, we should make good use of triangles, maybe just little things. Think about the last time you stood on a moving bus. Did you stand with your feet apart? Then, you just made yourself a triangle!

①Do you often hear birdsong outside the window? How do you feel when you hear it? In fact, it is shown that birdsong can influence people’s life.
②Birdsong sounds especially nice in winter because it reminds people of spring. A study found that listening to birdsong for six minutes can help make people less stressed. It’s hard to feel sad when you hear birds singing or talking, as the energy in their songs makes people feel like walking in the garden. Unlike music, which can sometimes make you produce strong feelings, birdsong is usually seen as positive or neutral (中性的). If you live in a noisy city, birdsong can be a welcome relief from the stress caused by outside noise.
③It is believed that birdsong has also been found to improve focus. It can help people focus on their tasks and be more productive. That’s because when people play birdsong in the background at work, it seems that a “wall” is built to help them stay away from the unpleasant noise outside. In this way, birdsong can be a powerful tool to improvement at work.
④Carrie Tom, a doctor in North Carolina, has also found that birdsong makes it easier to help people enter a deep sleep. Birdsong, as a kind of white noise, can slow down people’s heartbeats and breath. After listening to birdsong for a long time, a conditioned response (条件反射) is developed in their brains. Therefore, birdsong becomes a signal of entering sleep, which helps them fall asleep faster than before and improves their sleep quality.
⑤Birdsong, a gift from nature, connects people with calmer, more natural settings and makes people feel happier and healthier. So, next time you hear a bird singing, take a moment to enjoy it and let it bring a little joy to your day!

In recent years, Pop Mart has become a well-known cultural thing, winning the love of young fans around the world. It’s more than just a normal toy store. It creates a magical world full of cute characters that attract people with their charm.
The most interesting part of Pop Mart is its blind boxes, which hold the excitement of not knowing what’s inside. When you buy a blind box, you’re full of a feeling of mystery, because you won’t know which character is inside until you open it.
Usually, one series (系列) has a special “hidden” character that’s very hard to find and another 11 characters that are easier to get. This makes collecting them an exciting challenge. Many collectors really want to get the whole collection, especially those hard-to-find hidden characters. In 2023, Pop Mart sold over 10 million blind boxes just in China, showing how popular this idea is.
The characters of Pop Mart are designed carefully. Designers get ideas from many things, like old fairy tales, history, and modern art. Take the famous Molly series as an example.

In January of this year, I took part in a “Sharing Thanks” activity. After finishing it, I sat on a train home, thinking about the kind people around me. Then I started to write some thank-you notes to those who had given me a lot of help before. When I got off the train, I felt really happy. The next day, sending those notes brought me more happiness. At that time I got an idea: Why not write thank-you notes every month?
I came up with a theme for each month. January was for teachers. In February, I thanked my neighbor who was a friend of mine and also was a bookstore owner. She often held free reading clubs for kids. In the following months, I kept writing. In March, I showed my thanks to the doctors who took good care of my family. In April, with the theme of workmates, I wrote to Julie. In the letter, I told her how much I missed her delicious dishes. How thankful my husband and I were for the biscuits she made for our ninth anniversary (周年). Julie said it was the most touching letter she’d ever received. In May, I chose the theme of family. I first wrote thank-you notes to my parents, thanking them for raising me up and always being there whenever I need help. Then I wrote to my husband for his patient listening and understanding.
I don’t know if I’ll write notes every month, but I do know this: the habit of saying “thank you” will never leave me.
