(B) Traditionally, we take the underground with our underground cards or by scanning QRcodes (扫描二维码) on our smartphones. But now, people travelling on the Beijing Daxing Airport Express underground have a new way to take a ride: they can scan their palms (手掌). To enjoy the service, people need to register (登记) their palm prints on machines in underground stations along the Daxing Airport Express underground line. Then they have to activate the palm-scanning function (激活刷掌功能) on their smartphones. Once they do this, they can scan their palms at ticket gates to pass through. After they finish the travel, the payment service on their smartphones will pay the money for their ride. Many people welcome the new technology. They think it helps them travel faster and more easily. They don’t have to take out their underground cards or smartphones when they want to pass through the ticket gates. And they no longer have to worry when they forget their underground cards or when their smartphones run out of batteries. What’s more, the palm-scanning technology is very friendly to old people and those who have special needs. Those people may not use smartphones well. This technology makes it possible for them to take the underground without scanning QR codes on their smartphones. The palm-scanning technology is also in service in the underground station of Shenzhen. And there are hopes that it can be used in more places like stores and restaurants in the future. 29. If a person wants to enjoy the palm-scanning service,he or she should follow the order of________. ① register his or her palm print in underground stations ② scan his or her palm at the ticket gate ③ activate the palm-scanning function A. ③②① B. ②①③ C. ①③② D. ①②③ 30.

Holmes, Lestrade and I move towards the house. “Let’s wait here,” Holmes says. “We can hide behind these rocks. Watson, go to the house and see what they are doing. Make sure they don’t see you.” I hide behind a wall. I can see Mr. Stapleton and Sir Henry sitting at a table. Then, Stapleton leaves the room and walks to a shed in the yard. He opens the door and there is a strange noise from inside. After a minute he locks the door and goes back into the house. I hurry back to report everything to Lestrade and Holmes. There is now a thick white fog over the moor. “The fog is getting thicker,” says Holmes. “This is very serious — Sir Henry must go home soon.” Suddenly, we hear footsteps. They get closer and we see Sir Henry walking towards us through the fog. Then, we hear something. A terrible animal appears. It is a huge black hound. There is fire coming from its mouth and its huge eyes are glowing. The hound runs after Sir Henry. Holmes and I both fire our guns. We hit it but the hound doesn’t stop. It jumps on Sir Henry and pushes him to the ground. Holmes points his gun and shoots the hound five times. The giant hound is dead. Sir Henry is lying on the path. We run to him and find he is alive. I put my hand on the hound’s glowing face and find my own fingers glow in the dark. “Phosphorous (含磷的),” I say. We walk towards Merripit House to search for Stapleton. In the house we don’t find him, but we find Mrs. Stapleton tied up in a bedroom. We untie her. When she knows Sir Henry is alive and the hound is dead, she cries, “Thank God!” “Now we have proof, we need Stapleton.” says Holmes. 32. When did the story happen? A. In the morning. B. At noon. C.

(D) 阅读以下内容，从其后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，有两项是多余的。 Mulan, a Disney movie based on its cartoon about the ancient Chinese legend, has come out and Chinese viewers have been quick to criticize (批评) it. ___36___ As the Disney company put it, they designed the movie to please Western audiences, who care more about the story than the historical facts. That’s why Chinese audiences should not expect the film to have Chinese elements (元素) even though the story is Chinese and almost all the leading actors are Chinese. ___37___ However, the differences can’t hide the fact that Chinese and Western elements and values have common points. A good example is in the film. A good wife should be “quiet, calm, graceful and well-behaved”. ___38___ One has her dressed as a woman, the other with her practicing sword. Clearly, Disney described Mulan as a warrior, an independent female who can save herself instead of waiting for someone to save her. ___39___ That’s usually because both Chinese and Western cultures think gender equality (性别平等) and female independence are really important. It’ll make Chinese and Western audiences feel the same way. But whatever styles her clothes and makeup (妆容) follow, Mulan is a famous and heroic woman in Chinese old stories. She shows all the good qualities that Chinese women have. ___40___ Chinese writers and directors can tell stories about ancient Chinese heroes to the world, instead of waiting for Disney or Hollywood to tell them. A. Perhaps the criticism is not right. B. Disney was influenced by this kind of criticism. C. That is to say Mulan has two images (形象). D. It shows Chinese elements through the eyes of Westerners. E. That’s a good point where Chinese and Western values are similar. F. There are two images of Mulan that Chinese audiences are unhappy with. G. Disney’s Mulan should make the Chinese movie industry make better use of Chinese stories. 五、词汇运用(共10小题;每小题1分，满分10分) 从方框中选择恰当的词、短语或音标提示，用其适当的形式填空(每个仅用一次)。 catch one’s attention, record, break into, wealth, make up, be presented with, [lɒk], silly, neither, guard against 41.

Since the earliest dynasties the skills of reading and writing have been highly respected. In fact, they form an important part of the Chinese art world. Calligraphy, the art of writing with a brush is almost as old as writing itself. And though this art form dates back thousands of years, it is still very popular today. How did writing become so important in Chinese culture? The answer probably goes all the way back to the Shang Dynasty. That’s when characters were first carved in bronze. This way of doing things showed a kind of special meaning. In the eyes of common people, it made writing seem more important. Calligraphy spread during the Han Dynasty when the necessary tools and materials were more widely used. First, there was the brush, made from bamboo and animal hair. Early ink, or lampblack, was made by burning pine wood and mixing it with water. Early forms of paper were invented around AD 105. Finally, there was an inkstone, a smooth piece of stone used for mixing ink. Together, these tools were known as the “four treasures of study” in ancient China. Calligraphy has been popular in China for thousands of years. Some say that it’s an even higher art form than painting. Though foreigners may not always get it, there’s something truly special about calligraphy. Every Chinese character has a strict stroke order (书写笔顺). When viewing the results, you can trace the artist’s process, and be reminded of every stroke of his or her brush. This allows for a close connection between artists and audience. Calligraphy is something that’s best experienced by doing. Luckily, this ancient art is still widely practiced today. So, what are you waiting for? Get out there and find yourself a teacher! The Ancient Art of the Brush Introduction In Chinese culture, calligraphy is as old as writing. It is a (n) ___61___ form of writing with a brush. The ___62___ of being popular Chinese people ___63___ the skills of reading and writing very much. The skills of reading and writing are of great ___64___ in Chinese art world. During the Han Dynasty, people could get the tools and materials more ___65___. These tools, ___66___ the “four treasures of study” made calligraphy spread. Calligraphy is thought more ___67___ of than painting. Foreigners may not understand it well, ___68___ it is still truly special. The audience and the artists are ___69___ by tracing the artists’ process. Get out there and find yourself a teacher! You can get the best ___70___ by practicing hard. 七、书面表达(共1小题，满分15分) 71. 假如你是李华，请根据你校英语俱乐部的征稿要求，以“I have become a better student”为题，用英语写一篇演讲稿。 内容如下：1. 你过去在学校和在家的表现；2. 某件事或某个人对你的影响；3. 你现在的改变以及你的未来规划。 要求：1. 演讲稿必须包括以上3个要点，可适当发挥； 2. 不少于90词，开头和结尾已给出，不计入总词数； 3. 语意通顺，意思连贯，条理清楚，书写规范； 4. 文中不得出现真实的姓名、校名等信息。 I have become a better student Dear teachers and students, I am glad to make a speech.

A. a B. an C. the D. / 【答案】B 【解析】 【详解】句意：我们有一个不寻常的初中入学考试。 考查冠词辨析。a不定冠词，用于辅音音素开头单词前；an不定冠词，用于元音音素开头单词前；the定冠词，特指；/零冠词。根据“We had…unusual Junior High School Entrance Examination.”可知，这里想表示一场考试，不用特指，且“unusual”是以元音音素/ʌ/开头，需用“an”修饰。故选B。 2. —Why do you hope to visit Zijin Mountain some day? —_________ it is a beautiful place in Nanjing. A. Until B. If C. Because D. Though 【答案】C 【解析】 【详解】句意：——你为什么希望有一天去参观紫金山？——因为它是一个美丽的南京景点。 考查连词辨析。Until直到……，表示时间；If如果，表示条件；Because因为，表示原因；Though虽然，表示让步。根据问句“Why...?”可知是询问原因，答句“it is a beautiful place”正是对上文提问的解释，因此需要用表示原因的连词Because来引导原因状语从句。故选C。 3. Designated drivers (代驾) are_________ seen in our city because drunk driving is not allowed. A. never B. seldom C. hardly D. always 【答案】D 【解析】 【详解】句意：我们城市里总是能看到代驾，因为酒驾是不被允许的。 考查副词辨析。never从不；seldom很少；hardly几乎不；always总是。根据“because drunk driving is not allowed”可知，酒驾被禁会导致代驾需求增加，所以城市里应该“总是”能看到代驾，符合逻辑。故选D。 4. The 2024 Paris Olympic Games are ________ events that we all like watching them. A. so great B. great so C. great such D. such great 【答案】D 【解析】 【详解】句意：2024年巴黎奥运会是如此盛大的赛事，以至于我们都喜欢观看它们。 考查结果状语从句。根据“that we all like watching them”可知，此处是“such/so...that...”引导的结果状语从句，中心词events是名词，所以用“such+形容词+名词+that从句”结构，表示“如此……以至于……”。故选D。 5. Father is too tired today. Don’t call him ________ it is necessary. A. if B. unless C. when D. whether 【答案】B 【解析】 【详解】句意：爸爸今天太累了。除非有必要，否则不要给他打电话。 考查连词。A. if如果；B. unless除非；C. when什么时候；D. whether是否。根据上文Father is too tired today可知，父亲太累了，所以除非很有必要，否则不要给他打电话。B选项符合句意，故选B。 6. ―It's hard for the young girls to ______ the fashion. ―Yes It has been changing too quickly. A. run after B. run out C. run off D. run away 【答案】A 【解析】 【详解】句意：——年轻姑娘们很难追求时尚。——是的。变化太快了。 考查动词短语。run after追求；run out用完；run off流失；run away逃跑；根据句意理解及句中的the fashion可知，这里指的是“追求时尚”，英语中是run after，故选A。 7. What’s the meaning of “plump” in “Mother was fat and middle-aged. The principal of the school was an older woman, almost as plump as my mother.”? A. middle-aged B. clever C. hard-working D. fat 【答案】D 【解析】 【详解】句意：在“Mother was fat and middle-aged. The principal of the school was an older woman, almost as plump as my mother.”这句话中，“plump”是什么意思？ 考查词汇辨析。middle-aged中年的；clever聪明的；hard-working勤奋的；fat胖的。根据语境“妈妈很胖，处于中年。学校校长是一位年长的女士，几乎和我的妈妈一样plump”，可以推断出这里是在描述校长和妈妈的体型相似，妈妈是胖的，所以“plump”意思和“fat”相近，应该选fat。故选D。 8. —Mum, could I play the mobile phone for a while? —Unless your painting ________. A. completes B. is completed C. will complete D. will be completed 【答案】B 【解析】 【详解】句意：——妈妈，我能玩一会手机吗？——除非你的画完成了。 考查时态和语态。“your painting”是动作“complete”的承受者，且该句是“unless”引导的条件状语从句，遵循主将从现原则，从句使用一般现在时表示将来，因此应用一般现在时的被动语态“is completed”。故选B。 9. Kunqu is one of the oldest Chinese opera forms. ________, fewer young people enjoy it. A. Sadly B. Simply C. Specially D. Certainly 【答案】A 【解析】 【详解】句意：昆曲是中国最古老的戏曲形式之一。遗憾的是，享受它的年轻人越来越少。 考查副词辨析。Sadly令人遗憾地；Simply简单地；Specially特别地；Certainly当然。根据“fewer young people enjoy it.”可知，应用sadly，表示对于昆曲这一古老艺术形式逐渐被年轻人遗忘的遗憾之情。故选A。 10. We have made ________ a habit to wear masks whenever we go to public places. A. this B. that C. it D. one 【答案】C 【解析】 【详解】句意：我们已经养成了无论何时去公共场所都戴口罩的习惯。 考查代词辨析。this这个；that那个；it它；one一个。根据“made...a habit to wear masks”可知，此处使用it作形式宾语，代替不定式to wear masks，结构：动词+it+名词+to do。故选C。 11. Which of the following sentences has a relative clause? A. It is a romantic film that is not suitable for all ages. B. A friend told me that he would be separated from his family. C. Max practised so hard that he won the first prize in the match. D.

They get closer and we see Sir Henry walking towards us through the fog. Then, we hear something. A terrible animal appears. It is a huge black hound. There is fire coming from its mouth and its huge eyes are glowing. The hound runs after Sir Henry. Holmes and I both fire our guns. We hit it but the hound doesn’t stop. It jumps on Sir Henry and pushes him to the ground. Holmes points his gun and shoots the hound five times. The giant hound is dead. Sir Henry is lying on the path. We run to him and find he is alive. I put my hand on the hound’s glowing face and find my own fingers glow in the dark. “Phosphorous (含磷的),” I say. We walk towards Merripit House to search for Stapleton.

Since the earliest dynasties the skills of reading and writing have been highly respected. In fact, they form an important part of the Chinese art world. Calligraphy, the art of writing with a brush is almost as old as writing itself. And though this art form dates back thousands of years, it is still very popular today. How did writing become so important in Chinese culture? The answer probably goes all the way back to the Shang Dynasty. That’s when characters were first carved in bronze. This way of doing things showed a kind of special meaning. In the eyes of common people, it made writing seem more important. Calligraphy spread during the Han Dynasty when the necessary tools and materials were more widely used. First, there was the brush, made from bamboo and animal hair. Early ink, or lampblack, was made by burning pine wood and mixing it with water. Early forms of paper were invented around AD 105. Finally, there was an inkstone, a smooth piece of stone used for mixing ink. Together, these tools were known as the “four treasures of study” in ancient China. Calligraphy has been popular in China for thousands of years. Some say that it’s an even higher art form than painting. Though foreigners may not always get it, there’s something truly special about calligraphy. Every Chinese character has a strict stroke order (书写笔顺). When viewing the results, you can trace the artist’s process, and be reminded of every stroke of his or her brush. This allows for a close connection between artists and audience. Calligraphy is something that’s best experienced by doing. Luckily, this ancient art is still widely practiced today. So, what are you waiting for? Get out there and find yourself a teacher!
