His words and beautiful images show his love of photography and of the natural world. He was National Geographic’s 2018 Explorer of the Year. Question 1: How did you start working for National Geographic? My first job was for a newspaper. After a few years there, I met a National Geographic photographer. He liked my photos and said I should send some to the magazine. So I did. That led to a one-day job. And that led to a nine-day job, and so on. Question 2: What does it take to become a National Geographic photographer? To get into National Geographic, you have to give them something they don’t have. It’s not enough just to be a great photographer. You also have to be a scientist, for example, or be able to dive under sea ice, or spend maybe several days in a tree. Question 3: ▲ It’s now more difficult to work for magazines. Technology (技术) makes it easy to take good pictures, which means there are more photos and photographers. Also, the Web is full of photos from all around the world that are free, or cost very little. These photos are often good enough to be put in books and magazines that once paid for photographers and their photos. Question 4: What advice do you have for people who want to be photographers? Well, work hard. Be passionate (热诚的) about every project you work on. Take lots of pictures in different situations. Look at others’ photos thoughtfully and learn from them. And be curious about life. There’s something to photograph everywhere. But be a photographer for the right reasons. If you do it for the money, you probably won’t really be happy. Do you want to make the world a better place, or make people see things in a different way? If so, you’ll enjoy the work much more. 28. Which part of a magazine is the passage most probably taken from? A. Science Reports. B. People & Stories. C. Culture Reviews. D. The World This Week. 29. Which is the most suitable for ▲ ? A. What kind of photos are more popular today? B. What is the biggest challenge for magazines today? C. What kind of photographers are more popular today? D. What is the biggest challenge for photographers today? 30. What can we learn from the passage? A. Joel Sartore got that one-day job because the readers enjoyed his photos. B. Joel Sartore advises photographers to teach others by their own examples. C. Some National Geographic photographers are also masters in other fields. D. Joel Sartore thinks that happiness is the most important for photographers. C “Finn, you’re only eleven years old. You don’t need a mobile phone yet. Your sister Franny has one because she’s older and needs it for school.” said Mr. Fogg. “We’re flying to Paris, Dad,” Finn replied. “How am I supposed to take pictures and talk to my friends?” “Here’s my old digital camera You can use it to take pictures.” said Mrs. Fogg. “Thanks, Mom,” Finn said, but he couldn’t keep his eyes from rolling. The Foggs spent their first day in Paris at the Louvre Museum. They saw a thousand works of art, including the Mona Lisa. What Finn enjoyed most was watching a lady sketching (画素描) the famous painting. “That’s really cool!” Finn blurted out. “Merci, young man,” she said. “Drawing helps me see what is really there.” Finn asked if they could take a photo together. The woman smiled warmly as he took their picture. Finn found his sister. “You should see this artist,” he told her. Franny was looking at her phone. “Not now,” she said. “I’m reading about Leonardo da Vinci.” The next day, the Foggs ate at an outdoor café near the River Seine. The server brought dessert. “This crème brulee is delicious!” Finn exclaimed. He asked the server to take a picture of him posing with his new favorite dessert. “Oooh, look at this recipe (食谱) for crème brulee,” his mom said, checking her phone. “I’ll make it when we get home.” By the time Mom set her phone down, the waiter had cleared their plates and it was time to leave. On the last day of the trip, the Foggs went to the Eiffel Tower. Finn used his camera to shoot a video of them rising above the city in the glass elevator. “Look, Dad! We can see Notre Dame Cathedral from here.” Mr. Fogg was looking at his phone, however. “Did you know there’s a replica of the Eiffel Tower in Las Vegas? But it’s only half-size!” Finn sighed. On the flight home the next morning, Finn sat next to Franny. “That was the best vacation ever,” he said. He was scrolling through his photos and videos. Franny was looking over his shoulder. ▲ she asked, pointing (指向) at a picture. “Yes,” Finn replied. “The Arc de Triomphe.” He brought up a picture he had taken of their family. They were all standing in front of the famous monument—looking at their phones. 31. How did Finn feel when he thanked his Mom? A. Excited. B. Curious. C. Unhappy. D. Afraid. 32. Which of the following is the most suitable for ▲ ? A. “Where is it?” B. “Why were we there?” C. “Do you like it?” D. “Did we go there?” 33. How does the writer develop the plot (情节)? A. By asking questions. B. By describing feelings. C. By showing opposites. D. By giving instructions. D You have probably seen many cartoons during your life. Some of these cartoons appear in newspapers and others are in books. Others are seen in full-length movies and TV shows. Cartoons are very popular with people but are they works of art? Works of art are made by artists for a certain purpose. Usually, works of art are made by people to illustrate an idea or show part of a story. You can probably think of many famous works of art, like the Mona Lisa or David. These works of art took a long time to create. The people who made them wanted to show an important idea about the subject of their art. When people think of works of art, they usually think of paintings or sculptures that are known to even people who know little about art. Year after year, people come to look at the Mona Lisa’s strange smile. The sculpture David is similar—a lot of people know the story of how David fought a giant. The sculpture shows David as a hero. Since most of us wish we were heroes, David interests us no matter who we are. Cartoons can be seen in the same way, since many people who draw cartoons go to art school and study how to create pictures and stories. They think carefully about what ideas or stories they want to show with their work. Cartoons have an advantage over the works of art you see in museums, too. People need to travel to museums to see famous works of art, but a cartoon is as near as the newspaper or the internet. Cartoons talk about ideas that are important to people in a simple and easy-to-understand way. Most people do not need to stare at a cartoon for a long time to understand its meaning. However, not everyone agrees with the idea that cartoons are art. For example, some cartoons tend to deal with very recent issues, such as political (政治的) cartoons that appear in newspapers. They show an important news item of the day. However, in a few years, the people who look at the cartoons may not know anything about that news item. This means that they will not understand what the cartoon is about. Additionally, some people argue that cartoons take less time to make than other works of art, so they are not true pieces of art. 34. Why do some people think cartoons are not works of art? A. Because they think cartoons take longer time to create. B. Because they think cartoons don’t have deep meanings. C. Because they think cartoons aren’t for people of all ages. D. Because they think some cartoons have no lasting value 35. What does the underlined word “advantage” mean in this passage? A. Something better. B. Something worse. C. Something equal. D. Something similar. 36. What can most possibly be the purpose of the passage? A. To introduce the steps of how cartoon artists create their works. B. To show different opinions on whether cartoons are works of art. C. To explain why people prefer artworks like paintings to cartoons. D. To share the reasons why cartoons are thought of as works of art. 37. The following sentence would best be placed at the end of _________. This makes it possible for cartoons to reach more people than most traditional art forms. A. Paragraph 1 B. Paragraph 2 C. Paragraph 3 D.

When you’re eating your breakfast, children in New York City are eating dinner. Why is it happening? It’s mainly because of the Earth’s rotation (旋转) and time zone (时区) division. Here are some facts about time zones. To understand time zones, you need to know about Greenwich Mean Time (格林威治标准时间). GMT is seen as the starting point of time. Time zones across the world use it as their basis. So when discussing time zones, we mean the number of hours that are ahead of or behind Greenwich. The International Date Line (an unreal line) separates one calendar day from the next. Imagine you’re on a boat in the middle of the Pacific Ocean (太平洋). You take one step forward, and suddenly, it’s yesterday. You step back, and it’s tomorrow. Sounds like time travel, right? Well, this is exactly what happens at the International Date Line. Jet lag (时差反应), a common experience for travelers crossing many time zones, is a result of the clock inside our bodies trying to adapt to a new daylight and darkness schedule. For example, a traveller moving from New York to London, a five-time zone difference, might feel tired when London is busy with morning activities. So try to change your sleep habits before travelling to reduce the influence of jet lag. 58. What is GMT seen as? _______________________________________________ 59. When is it in New York city when we eat breakfast at home? _______________________________________________ 60. What separates one calendar day from the next? _______________________________________________ 61. Who may experience jet lag? _______________________________________________ 62. How will you deal with the jet lag if you are going abroad? _______________________________________________ 八、书面表达 (本大题共20分) 63. 进入初三，不少同学面临新的困难与挑战。为帮助大家缓解压力、找到解决问题的方法，学校将举办以“To be a sunshine teenager”为主题的英语演讲活动。假设你是张华，你想要分享自己在朋友或老师的影响下解决问题并获得成长的经历。请根据下方流程图完成演讲稿。 注意事项： 1.短文需包含所有要点，可适当发挥，要求语句通顺、意思连贯、符合题意； 2.词数不少于90个，演讲稿的开头和结尾已给出，不计入总词数； 3.文中不得使用真实的个人及学校信息； 4.短文必须写在答题卡指定的位置上。 Dear teachers and classmates, I am Zhang Hua.

His words and beautiful images show his love of photography and of the natural world. He was National Geographic’s 2018 Explorer of the Year. Question 1: How did you start working for National Geographic? My first job was for a newspaper. After a few years there, I met a National Geographic photographer. He liked my photos and said I should send some to the magazine. So I did. That led to a one-day job. And that led to a nine-day job, and so on. Question 2: What does it take to become a National Geographic photographer? To get into National Geographic, you have to give them something they don’t have. It’s not enough just to be a great photographer. You also have to be a scientist, for example, or be able to dive under sea ice, or spend maybe several days in a tree. Question 3: ▲ It’s now more difficult to work for magazines. Technology (技术) makes it easy to take good pictures, which means there are more photos and photographers. Also, the Web is full of photos from all around the world that are free, or cost very little. These photos are often good enough to be put in books and magazines that once paid for photographers and their photos. Question 4: What advice do you have for people who want to be photographers? Well, work hard. Be passionate (热诚的) about every project you work on. Take lots of pictures in different situations. Look at others’ photos thoughtfully and learn from them. And be curious about life. There’s something to photograph everywhere. But be a photographer for the right reasons. If you do it for the money, you probably won’t really be happy. Do you want to make the world a better place, or make people see things in a different way? If so, you’ll enjoy the work much more. 28. Which part of a magazine is the passage most probably taken from? A. Science Reports. B. People & Stories. C. Culture Reviews. D. The World This Week. 29. Which is the most suitable for ▲ ? A. What kind of photos are more popular today? B. What is the biggest challenge for magazines today? C. What kind of photographers are more popular today? D. What is the biggest challenge for photographers today? 30. What can we learn from the passage? A. Joel Sartore got that one-day job because the readers enjoyed his photos. B. Joel Sartore advises photographers to teach others by their own examples. C. Some National Geographic photographers are also masters in other fields. D. Joel Sartore thinks that happiness is the most important for photographers. 【答案】28. B 29. D 30. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇人物访谈，主要介绍了Joel Sartore作为摄影师的工作经历、成为《国家地理》摄影师的要求、当前摄影师面临的挑战以及他对想要成为摄影师的人的建议。 【28题详解】 推理判断题。文章主要介绍了Joel Sartore作为摄影师的个人经历、职业要求、面临的挑战以及给有志于成为摄影师的人的建议，这些内容更符合杂志中“人物与故事”这一板块的特征。故选B。 【29题详解】 推理判断题。根据下文“It’s now more difficult to work for magazines. Technology makes it easy to take good pictures, which means there are more photos and photographers. Also, the Web is full of photos from all around the world that are free, or cost very little. These photos are often good enough to be put in books and magazines that once paid for photographers and their photos.”可知，现在为杂志工作更加困难，技术使得拍摄好照片变得容易，意味着有更多的照片和摄影师，网络上也有很多免费或低价的照片，这些照片质量足够好，可以放入曾经付费给摄影师和照片的书籍和杂志中。由此可知，本段主要讨论的是摄影师现在面临的挑战，所以空白处应填入一个与摄影师面临的挑战相关的问题。选项D“如今摄影师面临的最大挑战是什么？”符合语境。故选D。 【30题详解】 推理判断题。根据“To get into National Geographic, you have to give them something they don’t have. It’s not enough just to be a great photographer. You also have to be a scientist, for example, or be able to dive under sea ice, or spend maybe several days in a tree.”可知，要成为《国家地理》的摄影师，仅仅成为一名优秀的摄影师是不够的，你还必须是一名科学家，或者能够在海冰下潜水，或者可能在树上待上几天。由此可知，一些《国家地理》的摄影师在其他领域也是大师。故选C。 C “Finn, you’re only eleven years old. You don’t need a mobile phone yet. Your sister Franny has one because she’s older and needs it for school.” said Mr. Fogg. “We’re flying to Paris, Dad,” Finn replied. “How am I supposed to take pictures and talk to my friends?” “Here’s my old digital camera. You can use it to take pictures.” said Mrs. Fogg. “Thanks, Mom,” Finn said, but he couldn’t keep his eyes from rolling. The Foggs spent their first day in Paris at the Louvre Museum. They saw a thousand works of art, including the Mona Lisa. What Finn enjoyed most was watching a lady sketching (画素描) the famous painting. “That’s really cool!” Finn blurted out. “Merci, young man,” she said. “Drawing helps me see what is really there.” Finn asked if they could take a photo together. The woman smiled warmly as he took their picture. Finn found his sister. “You should see this artist,” he told her. Franny was looking at her phone. “Not now,” she said. “I’m reading about Leonardo da Vinci.” The next day, the Foggs ate at an outdoor café near the River Seine. The server brought dessert. “This crème brulee is delicious!” Finn exclaimed. He asked the server to take a picture of him posing with his new favorite dessert. “Oooh, look at this recipe (食谱) for crème brulee,” his mom said, checking her phone. “I’ll make it when we get home.” By the time Mom set her phone down, the waiter had cleared their plates and it was time to leave. On the last day of the trip, the Foggs went to the Eiffel Tower. Finn used his camera to shoot a video of them rising above the city in the glass elevator. “Look, Dad! We can see Notre Dame Cathedral from here.” Mr. Fogg was looking at his phone, however. “Did you know there’s a replica of the Eiffel Tower in Las Vegas? But it’s only half-size!” Finn sighed. On the flight home the next morning, Finn sat next to Franny. “That was the best vacation ever,” he said. He was scrolling through his photos and videos. Franny was looking over his shoulder. ▲ she asked pointing (指向) at a picture. “Yes,” Finn replied. “The Arc de Triomphe.” He brought up a picture he had taken of their family. They were all standing in front of the famous monument—looking at their phones. 31. How did Finn feel when he thanked his Mom? A. Excited. B. Curious. C. Unhappy. D. Afraid. 32. Which of the following is the most suitable for ▲ ? A. “Where is it?” B. “Why were we there?” C. “Do you like it?” D. “Did we go there?” 33. How does the writer develop the plot (情节)? A. By asking questions. B. By describing feelings. C. By showing opposites. D. By giving instructions. 【答案】31. C 32. D 33. C 【解析】 【导语】本文讲述了Finn一家的旅游经历，告诫大家不要因为手机错过美丽的风景。 【31题详解】 推理判断题。根据“‘Thanks, Mom,’ Finn said, but he couldn’t keep his eyes from rolling.”可知，Finn说“谢谢妈妈”时，却忍不住翻白眼，由此可知，他是不开心的。故选C。 【32题详解】 推理判断题。根据“‘Yes,’ Finn replied. ‘The Arc de Triomphe.’”可知，空处应是一般疑问句，询问是否去过照片中的这个地方。选项D“我们去过那里吗？”符合语境。故选D。 【33题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章多处对比了Finn用相机投入旅行与家人沉迷手机的情形可知，文章是通过对照推动情节发展的。故选C。 D You have probably seen many cartoons during your life. Some of these cartoons appear in newspapers and others are in books. Others are seen in full-length movies and TV shows. Cartoons are very popular with people but are they works of art? Works of art are made by artists for a certain purpose. Usually, works of art are made by people to illustrate an idea or show part of a story. You can probably think of many famous works of art, like the Mona Lisa or David. These works of art took a long time to create. The people who made them wanted to show an important idea about the subject of their art. When people think of works of art, they usually think of paintings or sculptures that are known to even people who know little about art. Year after year, people come to look at the Mona Lisa’s strange smile. The sculpture David is similar—a lot of people know the story of how David fought a giant. The sculpture shows David as a hero. Since most of us wish we were heroes, David interests us no matter who we are. Cartoons can be seen in the same way, since many people who draw cartoons go to art school and study how to create pictures and stories. They think carefully about what ideas or stories they want to show with their work. Cartoons have an advantage over the works of art you see in museums, too. People need to travel to museums to see famous works of art, but a cartoon is as near as the newspaper or the internet. Cartoons talk about ideas that are important to people in a simple and easy-to-understand way. Most people do not need to stare at a cartoon for a long time to understand its meaning. However, not everyone agrees with the idea that cartoons are art. For example, some cartoons tend to deal with very recent issues, such as political (政治的) cartoons that appear in newspapers. They show an important news item of the day. However, in a few years, the people who look at the cartoons may not know anything about that news item. This means that they will not understand what the cartoon is about. Additionally, some people argue that cartoons take less time to make than other works of art, so they are not true pieces of art. 34. Why do some people think cartoons are not works of art? A. Because they think cartoons take longer time to create. B. Because they think cartoons don’t have deep meanings. C. Because they think cartoons aren’t for people of all ages. D. Because they think some cartoons have no lasting value 35. What does the underlined word “advantage” mean in this passage? A. Something better. B. Something worse. C. Something equal. D. Something similar. 36. What can most possibly be the purpose of the passage? A. To introduce the steps of how cartoon artists create their works. B. To show different opinions on whether cartoons are works of art. C. To explain why people prefer artworks like paintings to cartoons. D. To share the reasons why cartoons are thought of as works of art. 37. The following sentence would best be placed at the end of _________. This makes it possible for cartoons to reach more people than most traditional art forms. A. Paragraph 1 B. Paragraph 2 C. Paragraph 3 D. Paragraph 4 【答案】34. D 35. A 36. B 37. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是议论文。主要围绕“卡通是否属于艺术品”这一话题展开论述，既阐述了支持卡通为艺术品的观点，也说明了部分人认为卡通不属于艺术品的理由。 【34题详解】 细节理解题。根据“For example, some cartoons tend to deal with very recent issues... However, in a few years, the people who look at the cartoons may not know anything about that news item. This means that they will not understand what the cartoon is about. Additionally, some people argue that cartoons take less time to make than other works of art, so they are not true pieces of art”可知，部分人认为卡通不是艺术品的原因之一是有些卡通只涉及近期事件，缺乏持久价值，多年后人们可能因不了解相关背景而无法理解其含义；且有人认为卡通制作时间短。故选D。 【35题详解】 词句猜测题。根据“People need to travel to museums to see famous works of art, but a cartoon is as near as the newspaper or the internet”可知，人们需前往博物馆才能看到著名艺术品，而卡通在报纸或互联网上就能轻易看到，这体现了卡通相较于博物馆艺术品的“优势”。“advantage”应表示“更好的事物、优势”，与“Something better”含义一致。故选A。 【36题详解】 主旨大意题。文章第一段提出核心问题“Cartoons are very popular with people but are they works of art?”；第二段介绍艺术品的定义和特点；第三段阐述支持卡通为艺术品的理由；第四段说明反对卡通为艺术品的观点。由此可知，文章的核心目的是呈现关于“卡通是否为艺术品”的不同观点。故选B。 【37题详解】 推理判断题。题干句子“This makes it possible for cartoons to reach more people than most traditional art forms”中的“this”应指代前文提到的“卡通易于获取”的特点。第三段提到“Cartoons have an advantage over the works of art you see in museums, too. People need to travel to museums to see famous works of art, but a cartoon is as near as the newspaper or the internet”，该内容正是“卡通易于获取”的体现，与题干句子构成逻辑衔接，使得其能接触到更多人。故选C。 第Ⅱ卷 (主观题 共50分) 五、词汇运用 (本大题共10小题，每小题1分，共10分) (A)根据句意和汉语注释，在答题卡对应题号的横线上，写出单词的正确形式。 38.

I planned ________ (write) a report about my holiday. 【答案】to write 【解析】 【详解】句意：我计划写一篇关于我假期的报告。write“写”，动词，plan to do sth“计划做某事”，因此用动词不定式作宾语。故填to write。 56.

I hope to finish it by this weekend. 【答案】have collected 【解析】 【详解】句意：到目前为止，我已经为这份报告收集了许多照片和笔记。我希望在这个周末前完成它。“Up to now”表示“到目前为止”，是现在完成时的标志词，其结构为“have/has+过去分词”。主语“I”是第一人称，所以助动词用“have”，“collect”的过去分词是“collected”。故填have collected。 七、阅读表达 (本大题共5小题，每小题2分，共10分) 阅读下面短文，然后根据短文内容回答问题。每小题答案不超过10个单词。 While the sun shines where you live, it’s night time somewhere else. When you’re eating your breakfast, children in New York City are eating dinner. Why is it happening? It’s mainly because of the Earth’s rotation (旋转) and time zone (时区) division. Here are some facts about time zones. To understand time zones, you need to know about Greenwich Mean Time (格林威治标准时间). GMT is seen as the starting point of time. Time zones across the world use it as their basis. So when discussing time zones, we mean the number of hours that are ahead of or behind Greenwich. The International Date Line (an unreal line) separates one calendar day from the next. Imagine you’re on a boat in the middle of the Pacific Ocean (太平洋). You take one step forward, and suddenly, it’s yesterday. You step back, and it’s tomorrow. Sounds like time travel, right? Well, this is exactly what happens at the International Date Line. Jet lag (时差反应), a common experience for travelers crossing many time zones, is a result of the clock inside our bodies trying to adapt to a new daylight and darkness schedule. For example, a traveller moving from New York to London, a five-time zone difference, might feel tired when London is busy with morning activities. So try to change your sleep habits before travelling to reduce the influence of jet lag. 58. What is GMT seen as? _______________________________________________ 59. When is it in New York city when we eat breakfast at home? _______________________________________________ 60. What separates one calendar day from the next? _______________________________________________ 61. Who may experience jet lag? _______________________________________________ 62. How will you deal with the jet lag if you are going abroad? _______________________________________________ 【答案】58. The starting point of time. 59. It’s dinner time. 60. The International Date Line. 61. Travelers crossing many time zones. 62. Change sleep habits before travelling. 【解析】 【导语】本文主要介绍了格林威治标准时间基准作用、国际日期变更线的功能、时差反应的成因及应对方法等关键事实。 【58题详解】 根据“GMT is seen as the starting point of time.”可知，格林威治标准时间被视为时间的起点。故填The starting point of time. 【59题详解】 根据“When you’re eating your breakfast, children in New York City are eating dinner.”可知，当你正在吃早餐时，在纽约的孩子正在吃晚餐，即：晚餐时间。故填It’s dinner time. 【60题详解】 根据“The International Date Line (an unreal line) separates one calendar day from the next.”可知，国际日期变更线（一条假想线）将一个日历日与下一个日历日分隔开。故填The International Date Line. 【61题详解】 根据“Jet lag (时差反应), a common experience for travelers crossing many time zones, is a result of the clock inside our bodies trying to adapt to a new daylight and darkness schedule.”可知，时差反应是跨越多个时区的旅行者的常见现象，是人体生物钟试图适应新昼夜节律的结果。故填Travelers crossing many time zones. 【62题详解】 本题为开放性问题，答案不唯一，结合实际情况，合理作答即可。参考答案为Change sleep habits before travelling. 八、书面表达 (本大题共20分) 63. 进入初三，不少同学面临新的困难与挑战。为帮助大家缓解压力、找到解决问题的方法，学校将举办以“To be a sunshine teenager”为主题的英语演讲活动。假设你是张华，你想要分享自己在朋友或老师的影响下解决问题并获得成长的经历。请根据下方流程图完成演讲稿。 注意事项： 1.短文需包含所有要点，可适当发挥，要求语句通顺、意思连贯、符合题意； 2.词数不少于90个，演讲稿的开头和结尾已给出，不计入总词数； 3.文中不得使用真实的个人及学校信息； 4.短文必须写在答题卡指定的位置上。 Dear teachers and classmates, I am Zhang Hua. Today I am glad to share a story with you. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Thanks for listening! 【答案】例文 Dear teachers and classmates, I am Zhang Hua. Today I am glad to share a story with you. When I entered Grade 9, I struggled with constant stress from heavy coursework, especially in math. Complex problems made me anxious, and I even considered giving up at one point. My math teacher, Ms. Li, noticed my struggle. She patiently guided me through challenging concepts after class and encouraged me to keep a “problem notebook” to track doubts and progress. Whenever I felt overwhelmed, she reminded me that mistakes were stepping stones to growth. Her trust helped me shift my mindset.
