The local (当地的) people were so friendly and warm. ____21____ However, they greeted him with bright smiles and tried to help him. During his stay, one of his favourite activities was trying the local dishes, such as hot pot. It was so delicious that he could never forget it. Also, he walked through the night markets and chose some special gifts for his family and friends. He planned to share his happy experience with them.

Many people think of bats as scary living things that only come out at night, but in fact, they play important roles in our ecosystem. Bats are the only mammals that can truly fly. Their wings are made up of a thin skin which is stretched (伸展) between their long fingers. This unusual shape allows them to fly in a very special way. Unlike birds, bats can fly quickly and change ways easily. They can even fly backwards! There are more than 1,400 different kinds of bats in the world. Some are very small, about the size of a bee, while others can have wings of up to 1.5 meters. Bats live in almost every part of the world, except in very cold places. Most bats are nocturnal, which means they are active at night. During the day, they sleep in dark places such as caves or old buildings. When night comes, they wake up and go out to look for food. Different types of bats eat different things. Some bats love fruits. They help plants by spreading pollen and seeds, just like bees do. Other bats eat insects. A single bat can eat hundreds of insects in one night. This helps control the insect population and is good for our environment. However, bats are facing many problems today. The loss of their natural homes makes it hard for them to find places to live and food to eat. Also, some people are afraid of bats and try to kill them. But we should remember that bats are our friends. Protecting bats means protecting our ecosystem. 26. Why can bats fly in a very special way? A. Because their wings have unusual shapes. B. Because they are the only mammals that can truly fly. C. Because they can fly quickly and change ways easily. 27. What does the underlined word “nocturnal” mean in paragraph 4? A. 冬眠的 B. 夜行的 C. 群居的 28. What problems do bats face now? A. They can’t fly anymore. B. They don’t like to eat insects. C. They lose their natural homes. 29. What can we infer (推断) from the passage? A. Some people kill bats mainly because they are bad for our ecosystem. B. Bats can live in almost every part of the world, especially in very cold places. C. Some fruit-loving bats and bees play similar roles in spreading pollen and seeds. 30. What’s the structure of the passage? A. ①②/③④/⑤ B. ①/②③④/⑤ C. ①②③/④/⑤ 【答案】26. A 27. B 28. C 29. C 30. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了蝙蝠的飞行特点、种类、习性及生态作用，指出其面临的生存问题，强调保护蝙蝠对生态系统的重要性。 【26题详解】 细节理解题。根据“Their wings are made up of a thin skin which is stretched between their long fingers. This unusual shape allows them to fly in a very special way.”可知，蝙蝠翅膀的特殊形状让它们以独特方式飞行，故选A。 【27题详解】 词句猜测题。根据“which means they are active at night”可知，蝙蝠在晚上很活跃，所以“nocturnal”意为“夜行的”，故选B。 【28题详解】 细节理解题。根据“The loss of their natural homes makes it hard for them to find places to live and food to eat.”可知，蝙蝠面临的问题是失去自然栖息地，故选C。 【29题详解】 推理判断题。根据“Some bats love fruits. They help plants by spreading pollen and seeds, just like bees do.”可知，爱吃水果的蝙蝠和蜜蜂在传播花粉和种子方面作用相似，故选C。 【30题详解】 篇章结构题。结合全文可知，第①段总述蝙蝠是有趣动物且在生态系统中重要；第②③④段分别介绍蝙蝠的飞行特点、种类分布、夜行习性及食性（生态作用）；第⑤段讲蝙蝠面临的问题及保护意义。结构为①/②③④/⑤，故选B。 四、阅读填空（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分） 阅读短文，根据短文内容，从短文后所给的6个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有一项是多余的。 Now, people take trips by watching live streaming (直播) on Douyin, Bilibili and others. ___31___.

Many young workers are too tired to work anymore, so they choose to stop their work plans and have a long trip by themselves. And the trip usually lasts for one year or more. That is called “gap year”. The “gap year” is a new idea. More and more young people are willing to spend a year traveling and relaxing, experiencing a new life, and learning different new things along the trip.

During the “gap year”, young people can choose to travel around the world. These experiences can help them have less stress (压力) and decide wisely about their life.

In a word, taking a “gap year” can be a meaningful experience for young people. It gives them time to see the world and helps them be better people.

And the trip usually lasts for one year or more. That is called ‘gap year’”可知许多年轻工作者太累而无法继续工作，所以他们选择停止工作计划，独自进行一次通常持续一年或更久的旅行，这就被称为“间隔年”。故填tired。 【62题详解】 根据“More and more young people are willing to spend a year traveling and relaxing, experiencing a new life, and learning different new things along the trip”以及“The...they can do during it”后面内容可知此处讲的是在间隔年期间他们能做的活动，activity“活动”，此处用复数表示泛指。故填activities。 【63题详解】 根据“They think that this experience during the ‘gap year’ can help them better know themselves, find what they are really interested in, and get ready for their life and work.”可知他们认为“间隔年”期间的这段经历可以帮助他们更好地了解自己，找到自己真正感兴趣的东西，并为自己的生活和工作做好准备。interest“兴趣”，此处用复数表示泛指。故填interests。 【64题详解】 根据“These experiences can help them have less stress (压力) and decide wisely about their life.”可知这些经历可以帮助他们减轻压力，明智地决定自己的生活。此处修饰动词decide用副词wisely“明智地”。故填wisely。 【65题详解】 根据“It gives them time to see the world and helps them be better people”可知“间隔年”能给年轻人时间看世界，帮助他们成为更好的人。故填better。 九、书面表达（满分20分） 66. 假如你是Mary，请根据下面表格中的信息写一篇英语短文，向同学们介绍你和你的好朋友Helen的相似之处和不同之处，最后请表明你对朋友的看法。 Name Similarities Differences Mary 1．性格外向，勤奋 2．乐于做家务，如…… 3．喜欢读书，经常一起去图书馆看书 4．喜欢去旅游…… 1．个子更高 2．最喜欢蜜蜂，因为…… 3．…… Helen 1．头发更长 2．最喜欢蓝鲸，因为…… 3．…… 写作要求： 1．文中须包含所给的要点提示，可适当发挥； 2．文中不得出现考生的真实姓名和学校名称； 3．语句连贯，词数80词左右，作文的开头已给出，不计入总词数。 Helen is my good friend._______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 例文 Helen is my good friend.

C Bats (蝙蝠) are some of the most interesting animals on earth. Many people think of bats as scary living things that only come out at night, but in fact, they play important roles in our ecosystem. Bats are the only mammals that can truly fly. Their wings are made up of a thin skin which is stretched (伸展) between their long fingers. This unusual shape allows them to fly in a very special way. Unlike birds, bats can fly quickly and change ways easily. They can even fly backwards! There are more than 1,400 different kinds of bats in the world. Some are very small, about the size of a bee, while others can have wings of up to 1.5 meters. Bats live in almost every part of the world, except in very cold places. Most bats are nocturnal, which means they are active at night. During the day, they sleep in dark places such as caves or old buildings. When night comes, they wake up and go out to look for food. Different types of bats eat different things. Some bats love fruits. They help plants by spreading pollen and seeds, just like bees do. Other bats eat insects. A single bat can eat hundreds of insects in one night. This helps control the insect population and is good for our environment. However, bats are facing many problems today. The loss of their natural homes makes it hard for them to find places to live and food to eat. Also, some people are afraid of bats and try to kill them. But we should remember that bats are our friends. Protecting bats means protecting our ecosystem. 26. Why can bats fly in a very special way? A. Because their wings have unusual shapes. B. Because they are the only mammals that can truly fly. C. Because they can fly quickly and change ways easily. 27. What does the underlined word “nocturnal” mean in paragraph 4? A. 冬眠的 B. 夜行的 C. 群居的 28. What problems do bats face now? A. They can’t fly anymore. B. They don’t like to eat insects. C. They lose their natural homes. 29. What can we infer (推断) from the passage? A. Some people kill bats mainly because they are bad for our ecosystem. B. Bats can live in almost every part of the world, especially in very cold places. C. Some fruit-loving bats and bees play similar roles in spreading pollen and seeds. 30. What’s the structure of the passage? A. ①②/③④/⑤ B. ①/②③④/⑤ C. ①②③/④/⑤ 四、阅读填空（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分） 阅读短文，根据短文内容，从短文后所给的6个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有一项是多余的。 Now, people take trips by watching live streaming (直播) on Douyin, Bilibili and others. ___31___.
