Have you ever seen a dog letting people come close to its toy and then running away with it? The famous scientist Charles Darwin thought this was the dog’s way of playing a joke. Another scientist, Marc Bekoff, saw dogs playing with each other by slowly walking up to each other and then quickly running away. He said that dogs want a good time to relax themselves. In 2024, scientists had a study on apes (猿猴). They found the ability to have a sense of humor (幽默感) might have started long ago. The result surprised them a lot! But do these animals have a sense of humor? Are the apes in the study just trying to get attention, not joking around? Why would animals play jokes on each other? “Humor is a way for people to connect with others,” say scientists. “We don’t know if it’s the same for apes or other animals, but it’s possible.” 29. Why did the dog let people come close to its toy? A. To run with people. B. To make people relaxed. C. To play a joke on people. D. To let people play with the toy. 30.

They found the ability to have a sense of humor (幽默感) might have started long ago. The result surprised them a lot!”可知，2024年，科学家们对猿猴进行了一项研究，他们发现幽默感的能力可能早就开始了，这个结果让他们很惊讶。由此可推测，这里的them指代的是进行这项研究的科学家们。故选D。 【31题详解】 最佳标题题。根据第一段“Scientists have noticed that animals might also play jokes (开玩笑) on each other!”及全文内容可知，文章主要介绍了科学家们发现动物们可能也会互相开玩笑，并举例说明了一些动物的行为。因此，B选项“Animals joking around.（动物们互相开玩笑）”最符合文章主旨。故选B。 C ①People often ask me for suggestions about how to learn English. As for it, everyone is different. I’ll share some of my experiences. I once took a school-year English lesson in Wuhan University, but I mostly learned English alone. ②One thing I can tell you is that once you’ve started learning, you should try to think in English as much as you can. If you see something when you’re riding your bike or walking down the street, just think about “How would I say it in English?” At first, it might be with easy words or phrases (短语), but later you should think about longer phrases and sentences. Now I’m in America, and for most of the time, I would think in English and speak it out. You can’t imagine how much this helps. ③For several years after I started learning, I was often afraid of talking with others in English because I didn’t want to make mistakes. Finally, I got over it. And while traveling in America, I’d try to spend time with friends who couldn’t speak Chinese, so that I’d have no choice but to speak English. And I also decided not to be afraid of saying anything silly. After that, my English started improving much more quickly. ④Besides, it may be a good idea to ask your American friends to look at the way you’re writing, and give you some suggestions for improvement. 32. Why does the writer talk about “riding your bike or walking down the street” in Paragraph 2? A. To give examples. B. To compare the two ways. C. To teach sentences. D. To show strangers the way. 33. What does the writer want to tell us in Paragraph 3? A. Don’t laugh at others. B. Don’t be afraid to make mistakes. C. Learn to spend time with friends. D. Make a good choice when traveling. 34. What is the structure (结构) of the passage? A. B. C. D. 【答案】32. A 33. B 34. B 【解析】 【导语】本文介绍了作者学习英语的经历，并分享了一些自己的经验给读者。 【32题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中“If you see something when you’re riding your bike or walking down the street, just think about ‘How would I say it in English?’”可知，作者提到“riding your bike or walking down the street”是为了举例说明“用英语思考”的具体场景。故选A。 【33题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第三段中“I was often afraid of talking with others in English because I didn’t want to make mistakes. Finally I got over it... After that, my English started improving much more quickly”可知，该段想传递的核心是“不要害怕说英语时犯错”。故选B。 【34题详解】 篇章结构题。通读全文可知，文章开头引出“分享英语学习经验”的主题；随后分别围绕“尽量多用英语思考”、“不要害怕说傻话”、“请美国朋友帮忙看你的写作方式”这几个方面阐述具体方法，属于“总—分”结构。故选B。 D There are so many English expressions (表达) about the weather. Sometimes they mean something different. Raining a lot isn’t a good thing, but there is good news about rain: “Save for a rainy day” means people are working hard for a future plan. And “as right as rain” means that someone is as healthy as usual. So when your friend says, “I was ill, but now I feel as right as rain”, you know he is OK. However, the expressions about the cloud don’t sound so good. If a person only wants to do something great but never starts with small things, we may say, “He has his head in the clouds.” And if someone worked out a problem and felt very excited, we may say he is “on cloud nine”. On hot days, wind makes you feel cool and comfortable. But the expression “know which way the wind blows (吹)” suggests that a man won’t tell his idea about something till he knows it well. 35. If a man feels as right as rain, what does that mean? A. He feels very excited. B. He wants to do something great. C. He is as healthy as usual. D. He works hard for a future plan. 36. If a man knows which way the wind blows, which of the following best describes him? A. Polite. B. Lovely. C. Modern. D. Careful. 37. What is the text (短文) mainly about? A. News about rain and snow. B. Ways of checking the weather. C. Different meanings of the word “wind”. D. English expressions about weather. 【答案】35. C 36. D 37. D 【解析】 【导语】本文主要介绍了许多关于天气的英语表达，有时它们的含义有所不同。文章通过举例解释了不同天气相关表达的具体含义，展现了这些表达在日常生活中的实际应用。 【35题详解】 细节理解题。根据“And ‘as right as rain’ means that someone is as healthy as usual. So when your friend says, ‘I was ill, but now I feel as right as rain’, you know he is OK.”可知，如果一个人感觉“as right as rain”，意味着他和往常一样健康。故选C。 【36题详解】 推理判断题。根据“But the expression ‘know which way the wind blows’ suggests that a man won’t tell his idea about something till he knows it well.”可知，知道风向的人在充分了解某件事之前不会轻易表达自己的想法，由此可推测这样的人是谨慎的。故选D。 【37题详解】 主旨大意题。根据“There are so many English expressions about the weather. Sometimes they mean something different.”以及全文内容可知，本文主要围绕关于天气的英语表达展开，介绍了不同表达的含义。故选D。 E Once, there was a big apple tree. A little boy loved to play around it. As time went by, the little boy got older. One day, the tree found the boy sad while he was standing in front of the house. “Come and play with me,” she said. “I am not a child now,” the boy answered. “I need some money to buy school things.” “I don’t have money, but you can pick all my apples and sell them.” The boy picked all the apples on the tree and left happily. One day, the boy returned. “Come and play with me,” the tree said happily. “I have no time to play. I need to build a house for my family.” “You can cut off my branches (树枝).” So the boy cut all the branches off the tree and left happily. Years later, the boy returned again. “My boy, I’m so sorry for I don’t have anything to give you. The only thing left is my dying root (根),” the tree said in a sad voice. “I don’t need much, now, just a relaxing place for me to rest. I am tired,” the boy answered. “Good! Now my root is a good place for you. Come and sleep.” The boy sat down and fell asleep. The tree smiled and looked at the boy with deep love. 38. How did the boy buy school things?（不超过10个词） ________________________________________ 39. Why was the tree sorry for the boy when he returned years later?（不超过10个词） ________________________________________ 40. What do you think of the tree?（不超过5个词） ________________________________________ 【答案】38. By picking and selling the apples on the tree. 39. Because it had nothing to give the boy. 40. It’s selfless/generous/loving. 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了一棵苹果树和一个男孩之间的故事，男孩在不同成长阶段从苹果树那里获取所需，苹果树总是无私地给予，最后男孩疲惫归来，在苹果树的树根处休息，体现了苹果树对男孩深深的爱。 【38题详解】 根据第一段中“I need some money to buy school things.”以及“I don’t have money, but you can pick all my apples and sell them.”可知，男孩通过摘树上的苹果并卖掉它们来买学习用品。故填By picking and selling the apples on the tree. 【39题详解】 根据第二段中“My boy, I’m so sorry for I don’t have anything to give you. The only thing left is my dying root (根)”可知，多年后男孩回来时，树感到抱歉是因为它没有什么可以给男孩了，只剩下奄奄一息的树根。故填Because it had nothing to give the boy. 【40题详解】 开放性试题，言之有理即可。根据文章内容，苹果树在男孩不同成长阶段，总是无私地满足男孩的需求，给予男孩苹果、树枝，最后甚至提供树根让男孩休息，由此可看出苹果树是无私的、慷慨的、有爱的。故填It’s selfless/generous/loving. 第四部分 写（共三大题，满分25分） IX.单词拼写（共5小题，每小题1分，满分5分） 根据首字母及汉语提示，完成下列单词的拼写，使句意明确，语言通顺。 41.

Ⅷ.阅读理解（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分） 阅读下列短文，从每小题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出一个最佳选项。 A Every year, many people travel in the Philippines (菲律宾). Maybe you are planning to go there. To help you make your decision, here are some great places to choose: Boracay is known for its fine white sand and clear blue water. As one of the most beautiful beaches in the world, Boracay attracts a lot of tourists during summer. This place is a must for young people. So if you are out to have a good time and meet new people, Boracay is just the place for you. Camiguin is another choice if you like the beach on summer days. This place has hot springs and some active volcanoes (火山) as well. Camiguin takes its name from one of the area’s volcanoes. Palawan is one of the best beaches in the country. You can enjoy and experience the beauty of Mother Earth here in summer. Enjoy wonderful clear blue water and rocks. Most people come to Baguio in summer. The cool wind, the green mountains and the peace are welcoming you to visit. You can also enjoy one of its gardens. 26. What does the underlined word “attracts” mean? A. 吸引 B. 影响 C. 驱赶 D. 吓退 27. Where does the name of the place “Camiguin” come from? A. A mountain. B. A beach. C. A volcano. D. A garden. 28. In which part of a newspaper can you find the text? A. Weather. B. Travel. C. Music. D. Science. B Scientists have noticed that animals might also play jokes (开玩笑) on each other! Have you ever seen a dog letting people come close to its toy and then running away with it? The famous scientist Charles Darwin thought this was the dog’s way of playing a joke. Another scientist, Marc Bekoff, saw dogs playing with each other by slowly walking up to each other and then quickly running away. He said that dogs want a good time to relax themselves. In 2024, scientists had a study on apes (猿猴). They found the ability to have a sense of humor (幽默感) might have started long ago. The result surprised them a lot! But do these animals have a sense of humor? Are the apes in the study just trying to get attention, not joking around? Why would animals play jokes on each other? “Humor is a way for people to connect with others,” say scientists. “We don’t know if it’s the same for apes or other animals, but it’s possible.” 29. Why did the dog let people come close to its toy? A. To run with people. B. To make people relaxed. C. To play a joke on people. D. To let people play with the toy. 30. What does the underlined word “them” in Paragraph 3 refer to (指的是)? A. The dogs. B. The apes. C. The toys. D. The scientists. 31. What is the best title (标题) for the text? A. A study on apes. B. Animals joking around. C. A sense of humor. D. Scientists connecting with dogs. C ①People often ask me for suggestions about how to learn English. As for it, everyone is different. I’ll share some of my experiences. I once took a school-year English lesson in Wuhan University, but I mostly learned English alone. ②One thing I can tell you is that once you’ve started learning, you should try to think in English as much as you can. If you see something when you’re riding your bike or walking down the street, just think about “How would I say it in English?” At first, it might be with easy words or phrases (短语), but later you should think about longer phrases and sentences. Now I’m in America, and for most of the time, I would think in English and speak it out. You can’t imagine how much this helps. ③For several years after I started learning, I was often afraid of talking with others in English because I didn’t want to make mistakes. Finally, I got over it. And while traveling in America, I’d try to spend time with friends who couldn’t speak Chinese, so that I’d have no choice but to speak English. And I also decided not to be afraid of saying anything silly. After that, my English started improving much more quickly. ④Besides, it may be a good idea to ask your American friends to look at the way you’re writing, and give you some suggestions for improvement. 32. Why does the writer talk about “riding your bike or walking down the street” in Paragraph 2? A. To give examples. B. To compare the two ways. C. To teach sentences. D. To show strangers the way. 33. What does the writer want to tell us in Paragraph 3? A. Don’t laugh at others. B. Don’t be afraid to make mistakes. C. Learn to spend time with friends. D. Make a good choice when traveling. 34 What is the structure (结构) of the passage? A. B. C. D. D There are so many English expressions (表达) about the weather. Sometimes they mean something different. Raining a lot isn’t a good thing, but there is good news about rain: “Save for a rainy day” means people are working hard for a future plan. And “as right as rain” means that someone is as healthy as usual. So when your friend says, “I was ill, but now I feel as right as rain”, you know he is OK. However, the expressions about the cloud don’t sound so good. If a person only wants to do something great but never starts with small things, we may say, “He has his head in the clouds.” And if someone worked out a problem and felt very excited, we may say he is “on cloud nine”. On hot days, wind makes you feel cool and comfortable. But the expression “know which way the wind blows (吹)” suggests that a man won’t tell his idea about something till he knows it well. 35. If a man feels as right as rain, what does that mean? A. He feels very excited. B. He wants to do something great. C He is as healthy as usual. D. He works hard for a future plan. 36. If a man knows which way the wind blows, which of the following best describes him? A. Polite. B. Lovely. C. Modern. D. Careful. 37. What is the text (短文) mainly about? A. News about rain and snow. B. Ways of checking the weather. C. Different meanings of the word “wind”. D. English expressions about weather. E Once, there was a big apple tree. A little boy loved to play around it. As time went by, the little boy got older. One day, the tree found the boy sad while he was standing in front of the house. “Come and play with me,” she said. “I am not a child now,” the boy answered. “I need some money to buy school things.” “I don’t have money, but you can pick all my apples and sell them.” The boy picked all the apples on the tree and left happily. One day, the boy returned. “Come and play with me,” the tree said happily. “I have no time to play. I need to build a house for my family.” “You can cut off my branches (树枝).” So the boy cut all the branches off the tree and left happily. Years later, the boy returned again. “My boy, I’m so sorry for I don’t have anything to give you. The only thing left is my dying root (根),” the tree said in a sad voice. “I don’t need much, now, just a relaxing place for me to rest. I am tired,” the boy answered. “Good! Now my root is a good place for you Come and sleep.” The boy sat down and fell asleep. The tree smiled and looked at the boy with deep love. 38. How did the boy buy school things?（不超过10个词） ________________________________________ 39. Why was the tree sorry for the boy when he returned years later?（不超过10个词） ________________________________________ 40.
