The trees’ leaves provide food for silkworms, which produce silk. The government hopes that protecting them will help increase silk cloth production, which is an important industry in Tajikistan. Lahore, Pakistan Most polluted city On October 28, Lahore was named the most polluted city in the world. The city’s air quality reached its worst level of all time due to waste gases from cars and factories and smoke caused by farmers burning leftover crops.

I had often wondered what kind of home life David had and what kind of mother could send her son to school dressed so improperly for the cold winter months, without a coat, boots, or gloves. But something made David special. He was always happy to help and not a day passed that David didn’t stay after school to straighten chairs and clean the desks. We never talked much, he would just simply smile and ask what else he could do, then thank me for letting him stay and slowly head for home. Weeks passed and the excitement over the coming Christmas grew stronger and stronger until the last day of school before the holiday break. When the final bell rang, the anxious (急切) children rushed out of the door. I smiled in relief as the last of them hurried out the door. Turning around, I saw David quietly standing by my desk. “I have something for you, Ms Miller.” he said and pulled from behind his back a small box wrapped (包装) in old paper. Handing it to me, he said anxiously, “Please open it.” I took the box from him, thanked him and slowly unwrapped it. To my surprise, I saw nothing. I looked at David’s smiling face and back into the empty box and said, “The box is nice, David, but it’s empty.” “Oh, no, it isn’t,” said David. “It’s full of love. My mum told me before she died that love was something you couldn’t see or touch unless you know it’s there… can you see it?” Tears filled my eyes as I looked at the proud dirty face that I had given little attention to. “Yes, David, I can see it.” I replied. “Thank you.” I can say that with the passing years, I never forgot the meaning behind the little empty box that sat on my desk. 19. How was David different from the other children? A. He was short and had brown hair. B. He was lazy and wore old clothes. C. He was poorly dressed but always helpful. D. He was hard-working but often played alone. 20. How did the children feel as Christmas was getting closer? A. Quiet and relaxed. B. Creative and peaceful. C. Excited and anxious. D. Impolite and careless. 21. What can we learn about the writer in the last paragraph? A. She was angry because David’s face was dirty. B. She was annoyed because David’s mother died years ago. C. She was disappointed because David played a joke on her. D. She was moved because she got the meaning behind the box. 22. What is the best title of the text? A. A Poor Boy B. An Empty Box C. A Kind Teacher D. An Exciting Christmas 【答案】19. C 20. C 21. D 22. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，讲述了衣着简陋但乐于助人的小男孩David，在圣诞节前送给老师一个空盒子，这个盒子里装满了他的爱，让老师深受触动的故事。 【19题详解】 细节理解题。根据“dressed so improperly...without a coat, boots, or gloves”和“He was always happy to help”可知，David衣着简陋但总是乐于助人，这是他和其他孩子的不同之处。故选C。 【20题详解】 细节理解题。根据“Weeks passed and the excitement over the coming Christmas grew stronger...the anxious (急切) children rushed out of the door”可知，随着圣诞节临近，孩子们既兴奋又急切。故选C。 【21题详解】 推理判断题。根据“Tears filled my eyes as I looked at the proud dirty face...I never forgot the meaning behind the little empty box”可知，作者流泪是因为理解了空盒子背后“装满爱”的含义，内心深受触动。故选D。 【22题详解】 最佳标题题。通读全文可知，文章围绕 David 送给老师“空盒子”展开，这个空盒子承载着David的爱，是全文的核心线索，选项“An Empty Box”最能概括文章主旨。故选B。 C Brooke wanted a dollhouse and some sugar cookies. So the 6-year-old girl asked Alexa to get them. Alexa wasn’t her mom or sister. It was a voice-activated home assistant (语音助手) powered by artificial intelligence (AI). Alexa quickly made Brooke’s wishes come true. A few days later, much to her parents’ surprise, a $170 dollhouse and four pounds of cookies arrived at their house. (They ate the cookies and donated the dollhouse to a local hospital.) And that’s not the end of the story. When a news reporter told the story of what happened on TV, Alexa devices in many listeners’ homes woke up and tried to order dollhouses! Alexa isn’t the only AI ready to order up gifts for you. Apple Home Pod has Siri, and Google Home has its Assistant. People who own these devices use them mainly for listening to music, checking the weather, and setting times. According to a report from The Information, voice shopping is not very common yet. People who do it mainly order simple things like paper towels. But many experts predict a boom (暴涨) in voice shopping in the near future. Is that a good thing? Convenience is the main advantage of voice shopping. You can shout out an order as soon as you think of it, even if you’re cooking, cleaning, or driving. In addition, people with disabilities who are unable to use a keyboard or mouse can shop without others’ help. But voice shopping has its downsides. Unwanted dollhouses aren’t the biggest problem. It’s usually very easy to cancel an order or return items. The thing is that they are always there to listen for “Alexa” or “OK Google”. When they hear it, they start recording the conversation. Some have worried about what happens to these recordings. Should companies be allowed to use them to learn about people’s shopping habits? And what if someone hacks (侵入) the device? 23. What did Brooke ask Alexa to get for her? A. A pet dog and paper towels. B. A new bicycle and toy bears. C. A video game and a keyboard. D. A dollhouse and sugar cookies. 24. What is the correct order of the following activities? ①Her parents got a surprise package. ②A news reporter told the story of Brooke on TV. ③ Brooke asked Alexa for a dollhouse and cookies. ④Alexa devices in other homes tried to order dollhouses. A. ③-①-④-② B. ③-①-②-④ C. ④-①-③-② D. ④-②-③-① 25. What does the underlined word “downsides” in paragraph 4 mean? A. Weaknesses. B. Processes. C. Chances. D. Secrets. 26. What do some people worry about the most regarding voice-activated assistants? A. They will buy many unwanted things. B. The recordings would be used improperly. C. They cannot be used to make phone calls. D. They are not good at understanding orders. 【答案】23. D 24. B 25. A 26. B 【解析】 【导语】本文讲述了6岁孩子布鲁克通过语音助手Alexa下单玩偶屋和饼干的趣事，介绍了语音购物的实际案例，进而分析了语音购物的当前应用、便捷性优势，以及录音隐私、设备安全等潜在隐患。 【23题详解】 细节理解题。根据“Brooke wanted a dollhouse and some sugar cookies. So the 6-year-old girl asked Alexa to get them.”可知，布鲁克让Alexa帮她买的是玩偶屋和糖饼干。故选D。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。根据原文第一段“Brooke wanted a dollhouse and some sugar cookies. So the 6-year-old girl asked Alexa to get them.”可知，布鲁克让Alexa帮她买一个玩偶屋和糖饼干，对应事件③；根据“A few days later, much to her parents’ surprise, a $170 dollhouse and four pounds of cookies arrived at their house.”可知，几天过后，布鲁克的父母收到一个意外包裹，对应事件①；根据“when a news reporter told the story of what happened on TV”可知，后来一位新闻记者在电视上讲述了布鲁克的故事，对应事件②；根据“Alexa devices in many listeners’ homes woke up and tried to order dollhouses”可知，最后其他家庭的Alexa设备试图订购玩偶屋，对应事件④。所以事件顺序为：③-①-②-④。故选B。 【25题详解】 词句猜测题。根据文中提到“But voice shopping has its downsides.”及后文提到的一些问题可知，此处“downsides”指“弱点或不利之处”，选项A“弱点、缺陷”与该含义一致。故选A。 【26题详解】 细节理解题。根据“When they hear it, they start recording the conversation. Some have worried about what happens to these recordings. Should companies be allowed to use them to learn about people’s shopping habits? And what if someone hacks (侵入) the device?”可知，人们最担心的是语音助手的录音被不当使用。故选B。 D Every year, climate change is making the planet hotter. When humans cut down trees or burn coal, oil, and gas to produce electricity, CO2 and other harmful greenhouse gases (温室气体) go into the atmosphere (大气层). These gases take in the sun’s heat, causing Earth to warm up. The heat causes terrible weather around the world, including heat waves, floods and huge storms. One way of keeping the planet cool is to stop the greenhouse gases from entering the atmosphere. Some animals are natural-born climate change fighters. All animals are important, but a few hero animals protect their homes and keep them healthy, while going about their daily lives. Just by being themselves, these clever animals can prevent the planet from getting too hot. Let’s meet them. Tapirs (貘), rainforest regenerators Imagine if you pulled a pig’s nose to make it longer but stopped before it got as long as an elephant’s trunk. That’s what a tapir looks like. These strange animals can grow as big as, or even bigger than, an adult lion. Tapirs have a secret superpower, too—their poo (大便). Tapir’s poo spreads seeds (种子) across the forest, helping lots of new plants grow so that the forests can spring back to life more quickly. Sea otters (海獭), protectors of the kelp (海带) forest Kelp grows in huge underwater forests. Like forests on land, kelp provides a wonderful, safe home for lots of animals, including sea otters. It also takes in and stores lots of carbon (碳). The sea urchins (海胆) love to eat kelp, and sea otters love to eat the urchins. When an otter uses its stomach like a dinner table to snack on urchins, it’s not only super-cute, it’s actually helping to protect the kelp and create healthy, lively underwater forests. 27. What happens when greenhouse gases go into the atmosphere? A. They make the sky look darker. B. They send the sun’s heat back into space. C. They prevent sunlight from reaching Earth. D. They take in the sun’s heat, making Earth warmer. 28. What is the tapir’s secret superpower? A. Running faster than a lion. B. Climbing trees very high to pick fruits. C. Spreading seeds with their poo to help plants grow. D. Eating a lot of different plants to grow as big as a lion. 29. How does kelp help in the underwater ecosystem? A. It eats up sea urchins as snacks. B. It keeps the sea water warm and clean. C. It is a primary food source for sea otters. D. It provides a home for sea otters and stores carbon. 30. What’s the role of tapirs and sea otters in the environment? A. They are a danger to the environment. B. They have no influence on the environment. C. They play a big role in protecting the environment. D. They strongly wish to stop the Earth getting warmer. 【答案】27. D 28. C 29. D 30. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了气候变化的成因，以及貘和海獭这两种动物在保护生态环境、缓解气候变暖过程中所起到的重要作用。 【27题详解】 细节理解题。根据“These gases take in the sun’s heat, causing Earth to warm up”可知，温室气体进入大气层后会吸收太阳的热量，使地球变暖。故选D。 【28题详解】 细节理解题。根据“Tapirs have a secret superpower, too—their poo. Tapir’s poo spreads seeds across the forest, helping lots of new plants grow”可知，貘的秘密超能力是通过粪便传播种子，帮助植物生长。故选C。 【29题详解】 细节理解题。根据“kelp provides a wonderful, safe home for lots of animals, including sea otters. It also takes in and stores lots of carbon”可知，海带既能为海獭等动物提供栖息地，又能吸收并储存大量碳。故选D。 【30题详解】 推理判断题。根据“Some animals are natural-born climate change fighters...these clever animals can prevent the planet from getting too hot”，“Tapirs...helping lots of new plants grow”以及“sea otters...helping to protect the kelp”可知，貘和海獭在保护环境、缓解气候变暖方面发挥着重要作用。故选C。 第二节 任务型阅读（共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分） 阅读下面材料，从下面所给的A～E五个选项中选择正确选项（其中一项是多余选项），将其序号填入小题，并回答最后小题。 When you have a cold, it can be hard to go to school and try to listen carefully in class.

I will stay at home because I don’t want to spread germs. 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇议论文，讨论了生病是否应该上学问题，阐述了两种不同的观点及其理由。 【31题详解】 根据后文分别阐述了生病上学和在家休息两种不同观点可知，此处应是表明人们有不同意见，选项B“People have different opinions.”符合语境。故选B。 【32题详解】 根据前文提到生病在家可能带来的问题以及后文说接触细菌有助于增强免疫力可知，这里是在说明其实没必要一直待在家里，有些专家建议尽快回学校，选项E“So some experts advise going back to school soon.”符合语境。故选E。 【33题详解】 根据后文“Even if you’re starting to improve, you might get sick again if you push yourself too much.”可知，这里强调如果感觉不舒服就需要休息，选项D“If you don’t feel well, you need to rest.”符合语境。故选D。 【34题详解】 根据前文“if they get sick, they’ll have to miss school too.”可知，其他人因为自己传染而生病也要缺课，这是不公平的，选项A“That’s not fair!”符合语境。故选A。 【35题详解】 开放性试题，言之有理即可，故填I will stay at home because I don’t want to spread germs. 第三部分 语言运用（共三节，满分40分） 第一节 完形填空（共15小题，每小题1分，满分15分） At the age of 62, Jane Swayne’s life was completely changed by something sweet.

From November 4 on, local primary schools were not open for a week because of the pollution. In some parts of Pakistan, children have been told not to join in outdoor activities until January 2025.

I had often wondered what kind of home life David had and what kind of mother could send her son to school dressed so improperly for the cold winter months, without a coat, boots, or gloves. But something made David special. He was always happy to help and not a day passed that David didn’t stay after school to straighten chairs and clean the desks. We never talked much, he would just simply smile and ask what else he could do, then thank me for letting him stay and slowly head for home. Weeks passed and the excitement over the coming Christmas grew stronger and stronger until the last day of school before the holiday break. When the final bell rang, the anxious (急切) children rushed out of the door. I smiled in relief as the last of them hurried out the door. Turning around, I saw David quietly standing by my desk. “I have something for you, Ms Miller.” he said and pulled from behind his back a small box wrapped (包装) in old paper. Handing it to me, he said anxiously, “Please open it.” I took the box from him, thanked him and slowly unwrapped it. To my surprise, I saw nothing. I looked at David’s smiling face and back into the empty box and said, “The box is nice, David, but it’s empty.” “Oh, no, it isn’t,” said David. “It’s full of love. My mum told me before she died that love was something you couldn’t see or touch unless you know it’s there… can you see it?” Tears filled my eyes as I looked at the proud dirty face that I had given little attention to. “Yes, David, I can see it.” I replied. “Thank you.” I can say that with the passing years, I never forgot the meaning behind the little empty box that sat on my desk. 19. How was David different from the other children? A. He was short and had brown hair. B. He was lazy and wore old clothes. C. He was poorly dressed but always helpful. D. He was hard-working but often played alone. 20. How did the children feel as Christmas was getting closer? A. Quiet and relaxed. B. Creative and peaceful. C. Excited and anxious. D. Impolite and careless. 21. What can we learn about the writer in the last paragraph? A. She was angry because David’s face was dirty. B. She was annoyed because David’s mother died years ago. C. She was disappointed because David played a joke on her. D. She was moved because she got the meaning behind the box. 22. What is the best title of the text? A. A Poor Boy B. An Empty Box C. A Kind Teacher D. An Exciting Christmas C Brooke wanted a dollhouse and some sugar cookies. So the 6-year-old girl asked Alexa to get them. Alexa wasn’t her mom or sister. It was a voice-activated home assistant (语音助手) powered by artificial intelligence (AI). Alexa quickly made Brooke’s wishes come true. A few days later, much to her parents’ surprise, a $170 dollhouse and four pounds of cookies arrived at their house. (They ate the cookies and donated the dollhouse to a local hospital.) And that’s not the end of the story. When a news reporter told the story of what happened on TV, Alexa devices in many listeners’ homes woke up and tried to order dollhouses! Alexa isn’t the only AI ready to order up gifts for you. Apple Home Pod has Siri, and Google Home has its Assistant. People who own these devices use them mainly for listening to music, checking the weather, and setting times. According to a report from The Information, voice shopping is not very common yet. People who do it mainly order simple things like paper towels. But many experts predict a boom (暴涨) in voice shopping in the near future. Is that a good thing? Convenience is the main advantage of voice shopping. You can shout out an order as soon as you think of it, even if you’re cooking, cleaning, or driving. In addition, people with disabilities who are unable to use a keyboard or mouse can shop without others’ help. But voice shopping has its downsides. Unwanted dollhouses aren’t the biggest problem. It’s usually very easy to cancel an order or return items. The thing is that they are always there to listen for “Alexa” or “OK Google”. When they hear it, they start recording the conversation. Some have worried about what happens to these recordings. Should companies be allowed to use them to learn about people’s shopping habits? And what if someone hacks (侵入) the device? 23. What did Brooke ask Alexa to get for her? A. A pet dog and paper towels. B. A new bicycle and toy bears. C. A video game and a keyboard. D. A dollhouse and sugar cookies. 24. What is the correct order of the following activities? ①Her parents got a surprise package. ②A news reporter told the story of Brooke on TV. ③ Brooke asked Alexa for a dollhouse and cookies. ④Alexa devices in other homes tried to order dollhouses. A. ③-①-④-② B. ③-①-②-④ C. ④-①-③-② D. ④-②-③-① 25. What does the underlined word “downsides” in paragraph 4 mean? A. Weaknesses. B. Processes. C. Chances. D. Secrets. 26. What do some people worry about the most regarding voice-activated assistants? A. They will buy many unwanted things. B. The recordings would be used improperly. C. They cannot be used to make phone calls. D. They are not good at understanding orders. D Every year, climate change is making the planet hotter. When humans cut down trees or burn coal, oil, and gas to produce electricity, CO2 and other harmful greenhouse gases (温室气体) go into the atmosphere (大气层). These gases take in the sun’s heat, causing Earth to warm up. The heat causes terrible weather around the world, including heat waves, floods and huge storms. One way of keeping the planet cool is to stop the greenhouse gases from entering the atmosphere. Some animals are natural-born climate change fighters. All animals are important, but a few hero animals protect their homes and keep them healthy, while going about their daily lives. Just by being themselves, these clever animals can prevent the planet from getting too hot. Let’s meet them. Tapirs (貘), rainforest regenerators Imagine if you pulled a pig’s nose to make it longer but stopped before it got as long as an elephant’s trunk. That’s what a tapir looks like. These strange animals can grow as big as, or even bigger than, an adult lion. Tapirs have a secret superpower, too—their poo (大便). Tapir’s poo spreads seeds (种子) across the forest, helping lots of new plants grow so that the forests can spring back to life more quickly. Sea otters (海獭), protectors of the kelp (海带) forest Kelp grows in huge underwater forests. Like forests on land, kelp provides a wonderful, safe home for lots of animals, including sea otters. It also takes in and stores lots of carbon (碳). The sea urchins (海胆) love to eat kelp, and sea otters love to eat the urchins. When an otter uses its stomach like a dinner table to snack on urchins, it’s not only super-cute, it’s actually helping to protect the kelp and create healthy, lively underwater forests. 27. What happens when greenhouse gases go into the atmosphere? A. They make the sky look darker. B. They send the sun’s heat back into space. C. They prevent sunlight from reaching Earth. D. They take in the sun’s heat, making Earth warmer. 28. What is the tapir’s secret superpower? A. Running faster than a lion. B. Climbing trees very high to pick fruits. C. Spreading seeds with their poo to help plants grow. D. Eating a lot of different plants to grow as big as a lion. 29. How does kelp help in the underwater ecosystem? A. It eats up sea urchins as snacks. B. It keeps the sea water warm and clean. C. It is a primary food source for sea otters. D. It provides a home for sea otters and stores carbon. 30. What’s the role of tapirs and sea otters in the environment? A. They are a danger to the environment. B. They have no influence on the environment. C. They play a big role in protecting the environment. D. They strongly wish to stop the Earth getting warmer. 第二节 任务型阅读（共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分） 阅读下面材料，从下面所给的A～E五个选项中选择正确选项（其中一项是多余选项），将其序号填入小题，并回答最后小题。 When you have a cold, it can be hard to go to school and try to listen carefully in class.
