On August 20th, 2024, the Chinese gaming industry reached a milestone with the global release of Black Myth: Wukong, a new AAA action role-playing game developed by Game Science. Within hours of launch, it topped Steam’s most-played single-player list, gaining significant attention on social media.
Black Myth: Wukong draws on Chinese mythologies (神话) and the classic novel Journey to the West. It allows players to assume the role of Sun Wukong and start grand adventures. Inspired by Stephen Chow’s A Chinese Odyssey, the game creates a vivid dreamscape with Chinese scenery, like remote mountains, wild roads and ancient temples. The various demons, gods, and other figures with Chinese-style designs in the game are based on The Classic of Mountains and Seas, breathing new life into the ancient tales of Chinese mythology.
Feng Ji, Game Science founder and CEO, emphasized that the game was created entirely by a Chinese team to bring Chinese stories to the global gaming stage. He said, “The script and artistic concepts always take the lead, harmoniously integrating Chinese stories and classical cultural elements into the game.” He believed that a game’s true value is not determined by its budget or visuals, but by the genuine enjoyment it offers players.
According to the Xinhua News Agency, to create a truly immersive (沉浸式的), world-class game, the game’s production team spent years traveling across China, scanning historical and cultural sites, and integrating them into every game scenes. The game features 36 locations thoroughly modeled after real-world sites, with 27 of them located in Shanxi Province, China, offering players a unique and immersive visual experience.
The game has boosted interest in Shanxi’s cultural heritage. On its launch day, the search volume for Shanxi tourism increased by over 10%. Bookings for trips to Shanxi have doubled since July, and the number of tourists to Shanxi has grown by 50%. Shanxi has rich tourism resources but lacks recognition both domestically and internationally. The game has presented Shanxi’s cultural relics in a pleasing and effective way, arousing people’s interest in the province’s culture and travel.
6. What does paragraph 2 mainly tell us about the game?
A. Its design inspiration. B. Its wide popularity.
C. Its target players. D. Its cultural significance.
7. What is the key to making a truly valuable game according to Feng Ji?
A. Creating high profits for the game company.
B. Integrating Chinese stories into artistic concepts.
C. Designing impressive characters and visual effects.
D. Providing a satisfying experience for players.
8. Which of the following words can best describe the game’s production team?
A. Ambitious and efficient. B. Confident and productive.
C. Devoted and high-standard. D. Experienced and imaginative.
9. How does the game benefit Shanxi Province?
A. By promoting its cultural tourism.
B. By improving its international status.
C. By calling for the protection of its heritage.
D. By attracting investment to its game industry.
【答案】6. A 7. D 8. C 9. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了《黑色神话:悟空》 这款游戏的特点以及灵感来源和它所带来的影响。

(游戏的灵感来自周星驰的《月光宝盒》,创造了一个生动的中国风景的梦境,如遥远的山脉、荒凉的道路和古老的寺庙)”可知,这一段主要讲了这个游戏借鉴了中国古代神话以及小说,灵感来源于周星驰的电影,故选A。
【7题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段最后一句“He believed that a game’s true value is not determined by its budget or visuals, but by the genuine enjoyment it offers players. (他认为,游戏的真正价值并不取决于其预算或视觉效果,而是取决于它提供给玩家的真正享受)”可推断出,成为一个真正有价值的游戏的关键在于是否能让玩家乐在其中,提供给玩家满意的体验。故选D。
【8题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段第一句“According to the Xinhua News Agency, to create a truly immersive (沉浸式的), world-class game, the game’s production team spent years traveling across China, scanning historical and cultural sites, and integrating them into every game scenes.

Social media is taking over our lives: Facebook, Instagram, Twitter and now, TikTok. These social media platforms have changed from a way to stay connected to an industry where even kids can make money off their posts. While this may seem like another opportunistic innovation, it’s really full of hidden false realities.
The median income (中位收入) recorded in the United States of America was about $63,000 in 2018. TikTokers can make anywhere from $50,000 to $150,000 for a TikTok brand partnership, and TikTokers with over a million followers can make up to $30,000 a month — $360,000 a year. They are making more than the average person trying to feed their family and keep a roof over their heads simply by posting a 15-second video.
This is mad in more ways than one. Not only is it an overpaid “job”, it promotes undeserved admiration from viewers and a false sense of reality. Many of these famous TikTokers are still teens and the effects of fame at such an early stage in life might cause issues later in life, such as mental illness. Teens between the ages of 13 and 17 make up 27% of TikTok viewers, who can be easily influenced by what they are watching. They can put a false sense of self-value into who they look up to and what they represent: money, fame, being considered conventionally attractive.
While TikTok has become a great tool for marketing, it’s important to understand how this content affects young viewers. If we’re constantly consuming content that shows us all we need to do to be successful is be conventionally attractive and post a 15-second video featuring a new dance, it will challenge our knowledge of what really makes someone successful and will in turn affect our individual work ethnics (伦理). What about the people who miss birthdays and family holidays due to their jobs and aren’t getting paid nearly as much as these TikTokers?
Richard Colyer, president and creator of Metaphor, Inc, had his own view on this issue. “It sounds great that kids can make money for doing the latest dance moves in a 15-second video, but we should feed the minds of kids and not just their bank accounts. TikTok can be great if used properly. Money alone is not good; technology alone is not good and connectedness can be bad if it is only online.”
Again, as a fellow consumer of TikTok, I do enjoy the app when I have some time to kill and need a good laugh. I’m not against someone making a living on entertainment, but what does getting famous by posting a 15-second video teach young people?
10. What does the underlined word “this” in Paragraph I refer to?
A. Social networking. B. A job offered by TikTok.
C. Making money on social media. D. Staying connected to the Internet.
11. What does the author try to indicate in Paragraph 2?
A. TikTokers can hardly make ends meet.
B. Social media platforms like TikTok can make people overpaid.
C. Teens are wise to make a huge amount of money from TikTok.
D. TikTokers earn such a high income that they can support their family.
12. Which is the possible influence of TikTok on its young users?
A. They are likely to develop false values. B. They tend to live an adult life too soon.
C. They are forced to pay for certain services. D. They may stop believing other social media.
13. What did Richard Colyer stress according to his view?
A. Contents of videos need checking before their release online.
B. We have a responsibility to supply teens with food for thought.
C. Young TikTokers should be banned from opening bank accounts.
D. Money and technology can be good if used properly by TikTokers.
14. Which of the following might be the best title of the passage?
A. A Job VS An Entertainment B. Join Young TikTokers
C. Say No to TikTok D. TikTok — a place for money
【答案】10. C 11. B 12. A 13. B 14. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了社交媒体平台TikTok上赚钱现象及其对年轻人潜在的负面影响。
【10题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第一段中“These social media platforms have changed from a way to stay connected to an industry where even kids can make money off their posts. While this may seem like another opportunistic innovation, it’s really full of hidden false realities.(这些社交媒体平台已经从一种保持联系的方式转变为一个行业,在这个行业里,即使是孩子也能通过他们的帖子赚钱。虽然这看起来像是另一个机会主义的创新,但它实际上充满了隐藏的虚假现实。)”可知,this指代的是上文提到的“在社交媒体上赚钱这一现象”。故选C。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段中“TikTokers can make anywhere from $50,000 to 150,000 for a TikTok brand partnership, and TikTokers with over a million followers can make up to 30,000 a month —360,000 a year. They are making more than the average person trying to feed their family and keep a roof over their heads simply by posting a 15-second video.(TikTok用户通过与品牌合作可以赚到5万到15万美元,而拥有超过100万粉丝的TikTok用户每月可以赚到3万美元,一年就是36万美元。他们仅仅通过发布一个15秒的视频,就能比普通人赚得更多,普通人要努力养家糊口、维持生计。)”可知,作者在第二段中试图表明像TikTok这样的社交媒体平台可以让人们获得过高的收入。故选B。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中“They can put a false sense of self-value into who they look up to and what they represent: money, fame, being considered conventionally attractive.(他们会对他们崇拜的人和他们所代表的东西产生错误的自我价值感:金钱、名誉、被认为有传统意义上的吸引力。)”可知,TikTok对年轻用户可能产生的影响是他们可能会发展出错误的价值观。故选A。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中Richard Colyer的话“It sounds great that kids can make money for doing the latest dance moves in a 15-second video, but we should feed the minds of kids and not just their bank accounts.(孩子们可以通过在15秒的视频中展示最新的舞蹈动作来赚钱,这听起来很棒,但我们应该滋养孩子们的思想,而不仅仅是他们的银行账户。)”可知,Richard Colyer强调我们有责任为青少年提供精神食粮。故选B。
【14题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文,尤其是根据第一段中“These social media platforms have changed from a way to stay connected to an industry where even kids can make money off their posts.(这些社交媒体平台已经从一种保持联系的方式转变为一个行业,在这个行业里,即使是孩子也能通过他们的帖子赚钱。)”和第三段中“This is mad in more ways than one. Not only is it an overpaid “job”, it promotes undeserved admiration from viewers and a false sense of reality.(这在很多方面都是疯狂的。这不仅是一份报酬过高的“工作”,它还促使观众产生不应有的钦佩和错误的现实感。)”可知,文章主要讨论了社交媒体平台TikTok上赚钱的现象,以及这种现象对年轻人潜在的负面影响,如导致他们形成错误的价值观等。因此,D项“TikTok — a place for money(TikTok——一个赚钱的地方)”最适合作文章标题。故选D。

Ask most people which day of the week they fear the most and the answer is likely to be Monday. The first day of the working week can make us experience a sense of tiredness or fatigue. ______15______
______16______ It’s the time of year when we’re supposedly feeling at our lowest and most “blue”. We’re thought to be more likely to feel down because the weather’s cold and we’re back at work. We’ve got to make up all the money we spent at Christmas and we’re feeling guilty for already breaking our New Year’s resolutions.
Some consider the term, pseudo-science, saying that there is no such thing as a 24-hour depression. ______17______ The decreasing motivation to work, the lack of interest in everything and the regret for what is not finished can be clearly felt on the first day of the week. ______18______ Someone who misses the deadline and cannot meet the standard at work affects the overall efficiency and teamwork within a project.
Fortunately, we don’t have to suffer that on Monday, not if we remember: we all have our good days and our bad days, and those aren’t for the calendar (日历) to decide. ____19____ Rather than automatically thinking we feel blue on Blue Monday, reflect on the well being of our mind, practice self-care and seek support when needed. In this way, we can weather the Monday blues and any other challenges that come our way.
A. The most depressing day of the year is the third Monday in January.
B. Actually it’s common to feel a bit depressed for several times in a year.
C. But most people know that the Monday blues can be very real.
D. That’s why the feeling is described as the Monday blues.

G. In fact, it’s actually a good opportunity to check in on our mental health.
【答案】15. D 16. A 17. C 18. F 19. G
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了周一忧郁现象普遍,被视为一周中最沮丧之日,受寒冷、工作重启等影响,但实则不必受限于此。通过关注心理健康,自我关爱,适时求助,可积极应对挑战,跨越低潮。
【15题详解】
由上文“Ask most people which day of the week they fear the most and the answer is likely to be Monday. The first day of the working week can make us experience a sense of tiredness or fatigue. (问大多数人一周中他们最害怕哪一天,答案很可能是星期一。一周工作的第一天会让我们感到疲倦或疲劳。)”可知,这句话指出工作周的第一天(周一)可能会让人感到疲劳,为“周一忧郁”。D选项“That’s why the feeling is described as the Monday blues.(这就是这种感觉被描述为“星期一的忧郁”的原因。)”是对这种现象的直接命名和解释,能承接上文,符合题意。故选D。
【16题详解】
由下文“It’s the time of year when we’re supposedly feeling at our lowest and most “blue”. (这是一年中我们感觉最低落、最“忧郁”的时候。)”可知,提到一年中感觉最低落的时候,暗示了一个特定的时间点。A选项“The most depressing day of the year is the third Monday in January. (一年中最令人沮丧的一天是一月的第三个星期一。)”指出了所谓的“一年中最压抑的一天”——一月的第三个星期一,与“蓝色星期一(our lowest and most “blue””概念吻合,能引起下文,符合题意。故选A。
【17题详解】
上文“Some consider the term, pseudo-science, saying that there is no such thing as a 24-hour depression. (一些人认为这个术语是伪科学,说不存在24小时抑郁症。)”提到一些人认为“周一忧郁”是一种伪科学,没有科学依据,下文“The decreasing motivation to work, the lack of interest in everything and the regret for what is not finished can be clearly felt on the first day of the week.(在一周的第一天,人们可以明显地感受到工作动力的下降,对一切都缺乏兴趣,对没有完成的事情感到遗憾。)”举例说明“周一忧郁”的现象确实存在,可推断空处应和上文构成转折。C选项“But most people know that the Monday blues can be very real. (但大多数人都知道,星期一的忧郁可能是真实存在的。)”与上文构成转折,符合题意。故选C。
【18题详解】
由上文“The decreasing motivation to work, the lack of interest in everything and the regret for what is not finished can be clearly felt on the first day of the week. (在一周的第一天,人们可以明显地感受到工作动力的下降,对一切都缺乏兴趣,对没有完成的事情感到遗憾。)”可知,这些都是“周一忧郁”带来的具体感受,它们可能对工作和个人状态有负面影响。F选项“These can have a negative impact on our performance, productivity and the people around. (这些可能会对我们的绩效、生产力和周围的人产生负面影响。)”能承接上文,符合题意。故选F。
【19题详解】
下文“Rather than automatically thinking we feel blue on Blue Monday, reflect on the well being of our mind, practice self-care and seek support when needed. In this way, we can weather the Monday blues and any other challenges that come our way. (不要自动地认为我们在“蓝色星期一”会感到沮丧,而是要思考我们内心的健康,练习自我照顾,并在需要的时候寻求支持。这样,我们就能度过星期一的忧郁和任何其他的挑战。)”提出了应对“周一忧郁”的积极策略,鼓励关注心理健康。G选项“In fact, it’s actually a good opportunity to check in on our mental health. (事实上,这实际上是一个检查我们心理健康的好机会。)”能引起下文,符合题意。故选G。

_________________________________________________________________________________________

On August 20th, 2024, the Chinese gaming industry reached a milestone with the global release of Black Myth: Wukong, a new AAA action role-playing game developed by Game Science. Within hours of launch, it topped Steam’s most-played single-player list, gaining significant attention on social media.
Black Myth: Wukong draws on Chinese mythologies (神话) and the classic novel Journey to the West. It allows players to assume the role of Sun Wukong and start grand adventures. Inspired by Stephen Chow’s A Chinese Odyssey, the game creates a vivid dreamscape with Chinese scenery, like remote mountains, wild roads and ancient temples. The various demons, gods, and other figures with Chinese-style designs in the game are based on The Classic of Mountains and Seas, breathing new life into the ancient tales of Chinese mythology.
Feng Ji, Game Science founder and CEO, emphasized that the game was created entirely by a Chinese team to bring Chinese stories to the global gaming stage. He said, “The script and artistic concepts always take the lead, harmoniously integrating Chinese stories and classical cultural elements into the game.” He believed that a game’s true value is not determined by its budget or visuals, but by the genuine enjoyment it offers players.
According to the Xinhua News Agency, to create a truly immersive (沉浸式的), world-class game, the game’s production team spent years traveling across China, scanning historical and cultural sites, and integrating them into every game scenes. The game features 36 locations thoroughly modeled after real-world sites, with 27 of them located in Shanxi Province, China, offering players a unique and immersive visual experience.
The game has boosted interest in Shanxi’s cultural heritage. On its launch day, the search volume for Shanxi tourism increased by over 10%. Bookings for trips to Shanxi have doubled since July, and the number of tourists to Shanxi has grown by 50%. Shanxi has rich tourism resources but lacks recognition both domestically and internationally. The game has presented Shanxi’s cultural relics in a pleasing and effective way, arousing people’s interest in the province’s culture and travel.
6. What does paragraph 2 mainly tell us about the game?
A. Its design inspiration. B. Its wide popularity.
C. Its target players. D. Its cultural significance.
7. What is the key to making a truly valuable game according to Feng Ji?

B. Integrating Chinese stories into artistic concepts.
C. Designing impressive characters and visual effects.
D. Providing a satisfying experience for players.
8 Which of the following words can best describe the game’s production team?
A. Ambitious and efficient. B. Confident and productive.
C. Devoted and high-standard. D. Experienced and imaginative.
9. How does the game benefit Shanxi Province?

Social media is taking over our lives: Facebook, Instagram, Twitter and now, TikTok. These social media platforms have changed from a way to stay connected to an industry where even kids can make money off their posts. While this may seem like another opportunistic innovation, it’s really full of hidden false realities.
The median income (中位收入) recorded in the United States of America was about $63,000 in 2018. TikTokers can make anywhere from $50,000 to $150,000 for a TikTok brand partnership, and TikTokers with over a million followers can make up to $30,000 a month — $360,000 a year. They are making more than the average person trying to feed their family and keep a roof over their heads simply by posting a 15-second video.
This is mad in more ways than one. Not only is it an overpaid “job”, it promotes undeserved admiration from viewers and a false sense of reality. Many of these famous TikTokers are still teens and the effects of fame at such an early stage in life might cause issues later in life, such as mental illness. Teens between the ages of 13 and 17 make up 27% of TikTok viewers, who can be easily influenced by what they are watching. They can put a false sense of self-value into who they look up to and what they represent: money, fame, being considered conventionally attractive.
While TikTok has become a great tool for marketing, it’s important to understand how this content affects young viewers. If we’re constantly consuming content that shows us all we need to do to be successful is be conventionally attractive and post a 15-second video featuring a new dance, it will challenge our knowledge of what really makes someone successful and will in turn affect our individual work ethnics (伦理). What about the people who miss birthdays and family holidays due to their jobs and aren’t getting paid nearly as much as these TikTokers?
Richard Colyer, president and creator of Metaphor, Inc, had his own view on this issue. “It sounds great that kids can make money for doing the latest dance moves in a 15-second video, but we should feed the minds of kids and not just their bank accounts. TikTok can be great if used properly. Money alone is not good; technology alone is not good and connectedness can be bad if it is only online.”
Again, as a fellow consumer of TikTok, I do enjoy the app when I have some time to kill and need a good laugh. I’m not against someone making a living on entertainment, but what does getting famous by posting a 15-second video teach young people?
