The snake is the sixth of the twelve Chinese zodiac animals. In many parts of the world, the snake is seen as an evil (邪恶的) animal. In Chinese culture, however, it is seen in a more positive light (被积极看待). In China, snakes are often called small dragons. The dragon’s body is that of a big snake. For this reason, many people believe that the image of the dragon came from the snake. Snakes can be seen in many old Chinese stories. In Chinese mythology (神话), Fu Xi was one of the ancestors of the Chinese people. And his younger sister Nü Wa created humans from clay (泥土). Both of them had snake bodies and human heads. Shanhaijing, or Classic of the Mountains and Seas, was written before the Qin Dynasty. It tells stories about gods and goddesses. Many of them have something to do with snakes. For example, the four gods of the sea all wore snakes as earrings (耳饰). They also traveled on snakes. Snakes have shown up in many folk stories, too. One famous story is called Baishe Zhuan, or The Legend of the White Snake. In this story, a magical snake named Bai Suzhen falls in love with a man named Xu Xian. Bai Suzhen is pictured as a kind and beautiful character. 29. What is the position of the snake in the twelve Chinese zodiac animals? A. The fourth. B. The fifth. C. The sixth. D. The seventh. 30. Why do many people believe that the image of the dragon came from the snake in Chinese culture? A. Because the dragon can fly and the snake can crawl. B. Because the dragon’s body is like that of a big snake. C. Because both the dragon and the snake can swim. D. Because the dragon and the snake have the same color. 31. What is special about Fu Xi and Nü Wa in Chinese mythology? A. They were ordinary humans. B. They had dragon bodies and human heads. C. They had snake bodies and human heads. D. They created the Chinese zodiac. 32. What can we infer about the attitude of ancient Chinese people towards snakes? A. They were always afraid of snakes. B. They thought snakes were useless animals. C. They thought snakes as the most important animals in nature. D. They had a unique and relatively positive view of snakes. 33 What is the main idea of the passage? A. Year of the Snake, 2025. B. The negative image of snakes in the world. C. The stories about snakes in Shanhaijing. D. The positive image of snakes in Chinese culture. 【答案】29. C 30. B 31. C 32. D 33. D 【解析】 【导语】文章围绕2025年蛇年，阐述了中国文化里蛇的形象。 【29题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章开头“The snake is the sixth of the twelve Chinese zodiac animals.”可知，蛇是十二生肖中的第六位。故选C。 【30题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“The dragon’s body is that of a big snake. For this reason, many people believe that the image of the dragon came from the snake.”可知，因为龙的身体像大蛇，所以人们认为龙的形象源于蛇。故选B。 【31题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“Both of them had snake bodies and human heads.”可知，伏羲和女娲的特殊之处是拥有蛇身人头。故选C。 【32题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章内容，蛇在中国文化中被比作小龙、出现在祖先神话里、在民间故事中是善良形象，可推断古人对蛇有独特且相对积极的看法。故选D。 【33题详解】 主旨大意题。文章核心是介绍蛇在中国文化中的积极形象，A (2025蛇年)、B (世界对蛇的负面印象)、C (《山海经》中蛇的故事) 均是细节，并非主旨。故选D。 C I have loved my mother’s desk since I was just tall enough to see above the top of it when Mother sat doing letters. Standing by her chair, looking at the ink bottle, pens and white paper, I decided that the act of writing must be the most wonderful thing in the world. Years later, during her final illness, Mother kept different things for my sister and brother, “But the desk,” she said again, “is for Elizabeth.” I never saw her angry, and never saw her cry. I knew she loved me; she showed it in action. But as a young girl, I wanted heart-to-heart talks between mother and daughter. They never happened and a gulf (差异) opened between us. I was “too emotional (易动感情的)”, but she lived “on the surface”. As years passed, I had my own family. I loved my mother and thanked her for our happy family. I wrote to her in careful words and asked her to let me know in any way she chose that she did forgive (原谅) me. I posted the letter and waited for her answer. None came. My hope turned to disappointment, then little interest and, finally, peace—it seemed that nothing happened. I couldn’t be sure that the letter had even got to Mother. I only knew that I had written it, and I could stop trying to make her into someone she was not. Now the presence of her desk told, as she’d never been able to, that she was pleased that writing was my chosen work. I cleaned the desk carefully and found some papers inside—a photo of my father and a one-page letter, folded (折叠) and refolded many times. Give me an answer, my letter asks, in any way you choose. Mother, you always chose the act that speaks louder than words. 34. Why did Mother leave the desk to Elizabeth? A. Because Elizabeth was the youngest child. B. Because Elizabeth demanded it as her inheritance (遗产). C. Because the desk contained family photos. D. Because Elizabeth showed early interest in writing. 35. What made the writer and her mother emotionally distant? A. Different ideas about family duties. B. The mother’s serious illness. C. Not talking about feelings. D. Arguments about career choices. 36. How did the writer’s emotions change after sending the unanswered letter? A. Anger→Regret→Acceptance B. Hope→Disappointment→Peace C. Anxiety→Relief→Joy D. Shame→Pride→Confidence 37. What did Mother do with her daughter’s letter asking for forgiveness? A. She read the letter again and again till she died. B. For years, she often talked about the letter. C. She didn’t forgive her daughter at all in her life. D. She had never received the letter. 38. What’s the best title of the passage? A. My Letter to Mother B. Mother and Children C. My Mother’s Desk D. Talks Between Mother and Me 【答案】34. D 35. C 36. B 37. A 38. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，文章主要讲述了作者对母亲的书桌的深厚情感，以及母亲通过书桌传达的对作者写作选择的认可和支持。 【34题详解】 推理判断题。根据“Standing by her chair, looking at the ink bottle, pens and white paper, I decided that the act of writing must be the most wonderful thing in the world.”可知，作者站在母亲的椅子旁，看着墨水瓶、钢笔和白纸，认为写作是世界上最美好的事情，由此可推断出母亲将书桌留给伊丽莎白是因为伊丽莎白对写作表现出早期兴趣。故选D。 【35题详解】 细节理解题。根据“But as a young girl, I wanted heart-to-heart talks between mother and daughter.”以及第四段中“They never happened and a gulf opened between us.”可知，作者希望与母亲进行心与心的交谈，但这种交谈从未发生过，导致她们之间产生了隔阂，由此可知，作者和母亲在情感上疏远是因为她们没有谈论过彼此的感受。故选C。 【36题详解】 细节理解题。根据“I posted the letter and waited for her answer. None came.”以及第七段中“My hope turned to disappointment, then little interest and, finally, peace—it seemed that nothing happened.”可知，作者寄出信后没有收到回复，她的希望变成了失望，然后兴趣减少，最后归于平静，由此可知，作者寄出未回复的信后，情绪经历了从希望到失望再到平静的变化。故选B。 【37题详解】 推理判断题。根据“I cleaned the desk carefully and found some papers inside—a photo of my father and a one-page letter, folded and refolded many times.”可知，作者在清理书桌时发现了一封被反复折叠过很多次的一页纸的信，由此可推断出母亲反复阅读女儿的道歉信直到去世。故选A。 【38题详解】 最佳标题题。根据全文内容可知，文章主要围绕作者对母亲书桌的情感展开，从最初对书桌的喜爱，到母亲将书桌留给作者，再到作者通过书桌感受到母亲对她的认可和支持，最后书桌成为作者与母亲之间情感交流的象征，由此可知，文章的最佳标题为“我母亲的书桌”。故选C。 D Try to think about this: you sit down and begin to eat a tomato. Suddenly, the tomato starts to scream! This thing would never really happen. But a new study shows that plants make sounds when they are stressed. Scientists in Israel did the study. During the study, they used microphones to record healthy and stressed tomatoes— the stressed ones were either unwatered for several days or had their stems (茎) cut. They then used a special method to show the differences. What did they do? They listened to three groups of plants. Group 1: Plants were not watered for five days. Group 2: Stems (茎) were cut off. Group 3: Plants were untouched. The first two groups made sounds 30 to 50 times every hour. The third group only made the sound once every hour. The scientists said that thirsty plants began making noises before they were clearly dehydrated (脱水的). And the frequency of sounds reached the highest point after five days with no water, and then dropped as the plants dried up completely. What’s more, the types of sounds the plants made were different according to the cause of their stress. “When plants are not stressed at all, they are very quiet,” Lilach Hadany from the study team told CNN. Who listened to these sounds? Scientists believed that animals and insects may listen to the sounds. For example, the sound can tell them that the plant is stressed and not good for laying eggs on. When an animal wants to eat plants, it can also use sound to choose which one to eat. The scientist also listened to other plants such as wheat and corn. They also make more sounds when stressed. The study noted that sound recordings of plants could be useful in agriculture to make sure crops were getting enough water and to give water where it was needed most. Scientists say the study can help farmers in the future. They can better take care of the crops by “hearing” how plants feel. 39. What caused the tomato plants to be “stressed” in the study? A. Loud noises from microphones. B. Lack of sunlight. C. Being unwatered or having stems cut. D. Too much fertilizer. 40. How often did the healthy tomato plants make sounds? A. 30～50 times per hour. B. Twice every hour. C. 100 times per hour. D. They made the fewest times of sound per hour. 41. How might animals make use of the sounds made by stressed plants? A. To help plants grow faster. B. To avoid laying eggs on unhealthy plants. C. To communicate with other animals. D. To water the plants. 42. Which of the correct structure of the passage? A B. C. D. 43. How could the study help farmers in the future? A. By teaching plants to scream for water. B. By using sound recordings to monitor crop health. C. By creating music for plants. D. By replacing microphones with animals. 【答案】39. C 40. D 41. B 42. A 43. B 【解析】 【导语】本文主要讲述了一项新的研究成果，即植物在受到压力时会发出声音。 【39题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段中的“the stressed ones were either unwatered for several days or had their stems cut”可知，在研究中，使番茄植株“受压”的原因是几天不浇水或茎被切断。故选C。 【40题详解】 细节理解题。文中提到“the stressed ones were either unwatered for several days or had their stems cut”以及“The first two groups made sounds 30 to 50 times every hour. The third group only made the sound once every hour.”可知受压的植株(缺水或茎被切断)才有声音，而健康植株对应“When plants are not stressed at all, they are very quiet”，所以健康的番茄植株在每个小时内发出声音的次数最少。故选D。 【41题详解】 推理判断题。从文章第四段中的“For example, the sound can tell them that the plant is stressed and not good for laying eggs on.”可知，动物可以利用受压植物发出的声音来避免在不健康的植物上产卵。故选B。 【42题详解】 篇章结构题。通读全文，第一段引出植物在受到压力时也会发出声音研究调查；第二、三段详细描述了这项研究的具体内容；第四、五段详细介绍了动物和昆虫可以通过植物发出的声音做出正确的决定，这项研究也可以帮助农民改善植物的生长，即这项研究对动植物和人类的贡献。对应选项A。故选A。 【43题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章最后一段可知，该研究通过使用录音来监测作物健康状况，从而帮助农民更好地照顾庄稼。故选B。 三、短文还原（共5空，每空2分，计10分） 阅读短文，从短文下面方框中的六个句子中选择五个还原到短文中，使短文通顺完整、衔接自然。 The Science of Happiness Everyone wants to be happy. Some argue that the main reason people do the things they do is to become happier. ___44___ But what is happiness? What really makes people happy? Measuring happiness Social scientists usually count happiness simply by asking how happy people are. They ask people the question “How happy are you from 1 to 10?” Ed Diener, an expert on happiness from the University of Illinois, says that this is a useful way of getting information about people’s happiness. Weather and happiness In one study, researchers asked people in different parts of a country, “How satisfied are you with your life?” People in parts of the country with nicer weather were more satisfied with their lives. ___45___ Money and happiness Researchers have examined the relationship between money and happiness for many years. They say that very poor people are less happy than rich people. ___46___ If you have a home, food and clothes, extra money doesn’t make you happier. ___47___ According to researchers, there are five things that make people happy: *Having close relationships with people—family and friends. The closer and deeper the relationships are, the better for your happiness. *Believing in something. This could be a spiritual view in life. *Having goals that you find enjoyable and interesting. ___48___ *Doing meaningful work. We are the happiest when taking part in activities that make us forget ourselves and the time. *Thinking positively. Be satisfied that you have “enough room in your house” instead of admiring your neighbor’s bigger house. A. What makes people happy? B. This means that your life has a purpose. C. But lots of money doesn’t make you happier. D. Being happy doesn’t mean that everything is perfect. E. Others argue that happiness is a basic human right. F. They said they lived better than people from a city with bad weather. 【答案】44. E 45. F 46. C 47. A 48. B 【解析】 【导语】本文主要围绕《幸福的科学》展开，首先探讨人们对幸福的不同看法，接着介绍社会科学家衡量幸福的常用方式；随后分析天气、金钱与幸福的关联；最后列出研究人员总结的五件能让人获得幸福的事。 【44题详解】 根据“Some argue that the main reason people do the things they do is to become happier.”可知，一些人认为，人们做各种事情的主要原因就是变得更幸福，选项E“另一些人认为，幸福是一项基本人权。”符合语境。故选E。 【45题详解】 根据“People in parts of the country with nicer weather were more satisfied with their lives.”可知，该国天气更宜人地区的人们对生活的满意度更高，选项F“他们说自己比来自天气恶劣城市的人生活得更好。”符合语境。故选F。 【46题详解】 根据“They say that very poor people are less happy than rich people.”可知，他们指出，极度贫困的人不如富人幸福，选项C“但大量的金钱并不会让你更幸福。”符合语境。故选C。 【47题详解】 根据“According to researchers, there are five things that make people happy”可知，研究人员表示，有五件事能让人感到幸福，选项A“什么能让人幸福？”符合语境。故选A。 【48题详解】 根据“Having goals that you find enjoyable and interesting.”可知，拥有你觉得愉悦且有趣的目标，选项B“这意味着你的人生有了目标。”符合语境。故选B。 四、综合填空（共20空，每空1.5分，计30分） A 阅读下面的短文，根据短文内容，从下面方框内所给11个词中选择10个意义相符的词，必要时进行词形变化，填入空白处，每空一词。 one even, useful, enough, how, serious, animal, result, pollute, around, clean One cool April 22 morning, people started the day as usual.

In Chinese culture, however, it is seen in a more positive light (被积极看待). In China, snakes are often called small dragons. The dragon’s body is that of a big snake. For this reason, many people believe that the image of the dragon came from the snake. Snakes can be seen in many old Chinese stories. In Chinese mythology (神话), Fu Xi was one of the ancestors of the Chinese people. And his younger sister Nü Wa created humans from clay (泥土). Both of them had snake bodies and human heads. Shanhaijing, or Classic of the Mountains and Seas, was written before the Qin Dynasty. It tells stories about gods and goddesses. Many of them have something to do with snakes. For example, the four gods of the sea all wore snakes as earrings (耳饰). They also traveled on snakes. Snakes have shown up in many folk stories, too. One famous story is called Baishe Zhuan, or The Legend of the White Snake. In this story, a magical snake named Bai Suzhen falls in love with a man named Xu Xian. Bai Suzhen is pictured as a kind and beautiful character. 29. What is the position of the snake in the twelve Chinese zodiac animals? A. The fourth. B. The fifth. C. The sixth. D. The seventh. 30. Why do many people believe that the image of the dragon came from the snake in Chinese culture? A. Because the dragon can fly and the snake can crawl. B. Because the dragon’s body is like that of a big snake. C. Because both the dragon and the snake can swim. D. Because the dragon and the snake have the same color. 31. What is special about Fu Xi and Nü Wa in Chinese mythology? A. They were ordinary humans. B. They had dragon bodies and human heads. C. They had snake bodies and human heads. D. They created the Chinese zodiac. 32. What can we infer about the attitude of ancient Chinese people towards snakes? A. They were always afraid of snakes. B. They thought snakes were useless animals. C. They thought snakes as the most important animals in nature. D They had a unique and relatively positive view of snakes. 33. What is the main idea of the passage? A. Year of the Snake, 2025. B. The negative image of snakes in the world. C. The stories about snakes in Shanhaijing. D. The positive image of snakes in Chinese culture. C I have loved my mother’s desk since I was just tall enough to see above the top of it when Mother sat doing letters. Standing by her chair, looking at the ink bottle, pens and white paper, I decided that the act of writing must be the most wonderful thing in the world. Years later, during her final illness, Mother kept different things for my sister and brother, “But the desk,” she said again, “is for Elizabeth.” I never saw her angry, and never saw her cry. I knew she loved me; she showed it in action. But as a young girl, I wanted heart-to-heart talks between mother and daughter. They never happened and a gulf (差异) opened between us. I was “too emotional (易动感情的)”, but she lived “on the surface”. As years passed, I had my own family. I loved my mother and thanked her for our happy family. I wrote to her in careful words and asked her to let me know in any way she chose that she did forgive (原谅) me. I posted the letter and waited for her answer. None came. My hope turned to disappointment, then little interest and, finally, peace—it seemed that nothing happened. I couldn’t be sure that the letter had even got to Mother. I only knew that I had written it, and I could stop trying to make her into someone she was not. Now the presence of her desk told as she’d never been able to, that she was pleased that writing was my chosen work. I cleaned the desk carefully and found some papers inside—a photo of my father and a one-page letter, folded (折叠) and refolded many times. Give me an answer, my letter asks, in any way you choose. Mother, you always chose the act that speaks louder than words. 34. Why did Mother leave the desk to Elizabeth? A. Because Elizabeth was the youngest child. B. Because Elizabeth demanded it as her inheritance (遗产). C. Because the desk contained family photos. D. Because Elizabeth showed early interest in writing. 35. What made the writer and her mother emotionally distant? A. Different ideas about family duties. B. The mother’s serious illness. C. Not talking about feelings. D. Arguments about career choices. 36. How did the writer’s emotions change after sending the unanswered letter? A. Anger→Regret→Acceptance B. Hope→Disappointment→Peace C. Anxiety→Relief→Joy D. Shame→Pride→Confidence 37. What did Mother do with her daughter’s letter asking for forgiveness? A. She read the letter again and again till she died. B. For years, she often talked about the letter. C. She didn’t forgive her daughter at all in her life. D. She had never received the letter. 38. What’s the best title of the passage? A. My Letter to Mother B. Mother and Children C. My Mother’s Desk D. Talks Between Mother and Me D Try to think about this: you sit down and begin to eat a tomato. Suddenly, the tomato starts to scream! This thing would never really happen. But a new study shows that plants make sounds when they are stressed. Scientists in Israel did the study. During the study, they used microphones to record healthy and stressed tomatoes— the stressed ones were either unwatered for several days or had their stems (茎) cut. They then used a special method to show the differences. What did they do? They listened to three groups of plants. Group 1: Plants were not watered for five days. Group 2: Stems (茎) were cut off. Group 3: Plants were untouched. The first two groups made sounds 30 to 50 times every hour. The third group only made the sound once every hour. The scientists said that thirsty plants began making noises before they were clearly dehydrated (脱水的). And the frequency of sounds reached the highest point after five days with no water, and then dropped as the plants dried up completely. What’s more, the types of sounds the plants made were different according to the cause of their stress. “When plants are not stressed at all, they are very quiet,” Lilach Hadany from the study team told CNN. Who listened to these sounds? Scientists believed that animals and insects may listen to the sounds. For example, the sound can tell them that the plant is stressed and not good for laying eggs on. When an animal wants to eat plants, it can also use sound to choose which one to eat. The scientist also listened to other plants such as wheat and corn. They also make more sounds when stressed. The study noted that sound recordings of plants could be useful in agriculture to make sure crops were getting enough water and to give water where it was needed most. Scientists say the study can help farmers in the future. They can better take care of the crops by “hearing” how plants feel. 39. What caused the tomato plants to be “stressed” in the study? A. Loud noises from microphones. B. Lack of sunlight. C. Being unwatered or having stems cut. D. Too much fertilizer. 40. How often did the healthy tomato plants make sounds? A. 30～50 times per hour. B. Twice every hour. C. 100 times per hour. D. They made the fewest times of sound per hour. 41. How might animals make use of the sounds made by stressed plants? A. To help plants grow faster. B. To avoid laying eggs on unhealthy plants. C. To communicate with other animals. D. To water the plants. 42. Which of the correct structure of the passage? A. B. C. D. 43. How could the study help farmers in the future? A. By teaching plants to scream for water. B. By using sound recordings to monitor crop health. C. By creating music for plants. D. By replacing microphones with animals. 三、短文还原（共5空，每空2分，计10分） 阅读短文，从短文下面方框中的六个句子中选择五个还原到短文中，使短文通顺完整、衔接自然。 The Science of Happiness Everyone wants to be happy. Some argue that the main reason people do the things they do is to become happier. ___44___ But what is happiness? What really makes people happy? Measuring happiness Social scientists usually count happiness simply by asking how happy people are. They ask people the question “How happy are you from 1 to 10?” Ed Diener, an expert on happiness from the University of Illinois, says that this is a useful way of getting information about people’s happiness. Weather and happiness In one study, researchers asked people in different parts of a country, “How satisfied are you with your life?” People in parts of the country with nicer weather were more satisfied with their lives. ___45___ Money and happiness Researchers have examined the relationship between money and happiness for many years. They say that very poor people are less happy than rich people. ___46___ If you have a home, food and clothes, extra money doesn’t make you happier. ___47___ According to researchers, there are five things that make people happy: *Having close relationships with people—family and friends.
