There I was, walking home at one in the morning after a tiring practice at the theater. With opening night only a week away, I was still learning my lines. I was having trouble dealing with my part-time job at the bank and my acting at night at the same time. As I walked, I thought seriously about giving up both acting and San Francisco. City life had become too much for me. As I walked down empty streets under tall buildings, I felt very small and cold. I began running, both to keep warm and to keep away from any possible robbers. Very few people were still out except a few sad-looking homeless people under blankets. About a block from my apartment, I heard a sound behind me. I turned quickly, half expecting to see someone with a knife or a gun. The street was empty. All I saw was a shining streetlight. Still, the noise had made me nervous, so I started to run faster. Not until I reached my apartment building and unlocked the door did I realize what the noise had been. It had been my wallet falling to the sidewalk. Suddenly I wasn’t cold or tired anymore. I ran out of the door and back to where I’d heard the noise. Although I searched the sidewalk anxiously for fifteen minutes, my wallet was nowhere to be found. Just as I was about to give up the search, I heard the garbage truck pulled up to the sidewalk next to me. When a voice called from the inside, “Alisa Camacho?” I thought I was dreaming. How could this man know my name? The door opened, and out jumped a small red-haired man with an amused look in his eyes: “Is this what you’re looking for?” he asked, holding up a small square shape. It was nearly 3 a.m. by the time I got into bed. I wouldn’t get much sleep that night, but I had gotten my wallet back. I also had gotten back some enjoyment of city life. I realized that the city couldn’t be a bad place as long as people were willing to help each other. 41. How did the author feel when she was walking home after work? A. Cold and sick. B.

She failed to balance her part-time job and acting. C. She had to take part in various city activities. D. She gave up both acting and San Francisco. 43. On her way home the author ______.

In the fifth paragraph, why did the author say she was dreaming? A. Her wallet was found in a garbage truck. B. Someone offered to take her back home. C. She heard someone call her name. D. A red-haired man came to see her. 45. From the passage, we can infer that the author ______. A. would stop working at night B. would stay on in San Francisco C. would make friends with cleaners D. would give up her job at the bank 【答案】41. D 42. B 43. A 44. C 45. B 【解析】 【分析】本文属于记叙文。在一个失意的夜晚作者独自回家，工作及生活的不顺使作者心情沮丧，甚至于考虑要放弃在旧金山这个大都市的生活。然而随后发生的钱包失而复得的事情却让作者感受到了人们之间的温暖，也感受到了世界的美好，内心又充满了对城市生活的希望。 【41题详解】 推理判断题。根据首段“As I walked, I thought seriously about giving up both acting and San Francisco. City life had become too much for me.(我一边走，一边认真地考虑着要不要放弃演戏和旧金山。城市生活对我来说已经太多了)”可知，作者想放弃演戏甚至城市生活的消极心态说明了作者走在大街上的心情，用disappointed形容正确。第二段“As I walked down empty streets under tall buildings, I felt very small and cold.(当我走在高楼下面空荡荡的街道上时，我觉得自己非常渺小和寒冷)”可知，高楼和空寂的大街衬托出我的渺小和无助，因此用helpless形容也很正确。故选D。 【42题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段的“I was having trouble dealing with my part-time job at the bank and my acting at night at the same time.(我在银行的兼职工作和晚上的表演都让我很头疼)”可知，作者没有协调好兼职工作与表演之间的关系。故选B。 【43题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段的“Still, the noise had made me nervous, so I started to run faster. Not until I reached my apartment building and unlocked the door did I realize what the noise had been. It had been my wallet falling to the sidewalk.(尽管如此，那声音还是让我紧张，所以我开始跑得更快了。直到我到达我的公寓大楼，打开门，我才意识到刚才的声音是什么。原来是我的钱包掉到人行道上了)”可知，作者在回家的路上不知不觉地丢了钱包。故选A。 【44题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段“When a voice called from the inside, “Alisa Camacho?” I thought I was dreaming.(这时有个声音从里面喊道“艾丽莎·卡马乔？”我以为我在做梦)”可知，听见有人叫他的名字，作者以为在做梦。故选C。 【45题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“I also had got back some enjoyment of city life. I realized that the city couldn't be a bad place as long as people were willing to help each other.(我也恢复了一些城市生活的乐趣。我意识到只要人们愿意互相帮助，城市就不会是一个糟糕的地方)”可推知，作者可能会继续留在旧金山。故选B。 C Since the beginning of the Paris 2024 Olympic Games, many exciting and unforgettable moments have been shared by athletes and audiences worldwide. But beyond the victories and defeats, there is something more to admire: the positive and energetic manner of China’s young athletes, coupled with their amazing record-breaking achievements. On Aug 4, 21-year-old Zheng Qinwen made history for Chinese tennis by winning the first gold medal in women’s singles for both China and Asia. Just the following day, the young Chinese swimming team ended the US’s decadeslong unbeaten history in the men’s relay. Equally inspiring is the positive mindset exhibited by these young athletes. They are confident and inclusive (包容的), both in competition and cross-cultural interactions, trying hard to achieve excellence and breakthrough performances. Moreover, they have moved away from the “gold medal only” mindset, embracing (拥抱) a calmer and more sensible approach to sports, which reflects a significant change in their view. There are countless examples. From 18-year-old BMX freestyle cyclist Deng Yawen to 26-year-old swimmer Zhang Yufei, many young athletes have captivated global audiences and held the world’s attention with their self-assured approach to competition. They enjoy competing from the bottom of their heart. When Zhang, China’s “butterfly queen”, missed out on a gold medal, she said, “I hope this time I can have a relaxed attitude and really enjoy the Olympics.” This change in mindset and manner has moved the public focus away from just winning gold medals to appreciating the respect and honor that athletes and the Olympics truly deserve. On the Olympic stage, these young people uphold the proud traditions of Chinese sports while showing a new image of a confident and open China. But what exactly is the Olympic spirit? It’s not just about being faster, higher, stronger, but also about embracing sports with a positive attitude. 46. What can we know about the athletes mentioned in the passage? A. “Butterfly queen” Zhang Yufei won a gold medal in the competition. B. The US swimming team was the champion in the men’s relay. C. 18-year-old BMX freestyle cyclist Deng Yawen really enjoyed competing. D. Zheng Qinwen won the first gold medal for Chinese tennis in women’s doubles. 47. Which words can best describe the Chinese athletes? A. Calm and brave. B. Confident and inclusive. C Generous and humorous. D. Hard-working and open-minded. 48. What is the meaning of the underlined word “captivate” in Paragraph 4? A. Relax. B. Attract. C. Benefit. D. Encourage. 49. What was the public focus in the past? A. Winning gold medals. B. Valuing respect for athletes. C. Showing a new image of China. D. Enjoying the unforgettable moments. 50. Which of the following can be the best title for the passage? A. Faster, higher, stronger. B. Record-breaking achievements. C. The Paris 2024 Olympic Games. D. Embracing the true Olympic spirit. 【答案】46. C 47. B 48. B 49. A 50. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇议论文。文章介绍了巴黎奥运会上中国新生代运动员们自信开放、享受比赛，多项摘金破纪录，把公众目光从“唯金牌”转向尊重与荣耀，展现阳光大国形象。 【46题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“From 18-year-old BMX freestyle cyclist Deng Yawen to 26-year-old swimmer Zhang Yufei, many young athletes have captivated global audiences and held the world’s attention with their self-assured approach to competition. They enjoy competing from the bottom of their heart.(从18岁的小轮车自由式自行车选手邓亚文到26岁的游泳运动员张雨霏，许多年轻运动员以自信的比赛方式吸引了全球观众，受到全世界的关注。他们从心底里喜欢竞争)”可知，邓亚文真正地喜欢竞争。故选C项。 【47题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“Equally inspiring is the positive mindset exhibited by these young athletes. They are confident and inclusive (包容的), both in competition and cross-cultural interactions, trying hard to achieve excellence and breakthrough performances.(同样鼓舞人心的是这些年轻运动员所表现出的积极心态。无论是在竞争中还是在跨文化互动中，他们都充满自信和包容，努力取得卓越和突破性的表现)”可知，年轻一代运动员们是自信包容的。故选B项。 【48题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线词后“and held the world’s attention with their self-assured approach to competition.(以自信的比赛方式受到全世界的关注)”可知，此处表示这些运动员引起全世界的关注，由此可知，划线词处应表示吸引了全球观众，与attract词义相近。故选B项。 【49题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段“This change in mindset and manner has moved the public focus away from just winning gold medals to appreciating the respect and honor that athletes and the Olympics truly deserve.(这种心态和态度的改变，让公众的注意力从仅仅赢得金牌转移到欣赏运动员和奥运会真正应得的尊重和荣誉上)”可知，过去公众的关注点是赢金牌。故选A项。 【50题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“Since the beginning of the Paris 2024 Olympic Games, many exciting and unforgettable moments have been shared by athletes and audiences worldwide. But beyond the victories and defeats, there is something more to admire: the positive and energetic manner of China’s young athletes, coupled with their amazing record-breaking achievements.(自2024年巴黎奥运会开幕以来，世界各地的运动员和观众分享了许多令人兴奋和难忘的时刻。但在胜利和失败之外，还有更令人钦佩的东西：中国年轻运动员积极向上、充满活力的态度，以及他们惊人的破纪录成就)”及最后一段“But what exactly is the Olympic spirit? It’s not just about being faster, higher, stronger, but also about embracing sports with a positive attitude. (但奥运精神到底是什么？这不仅仅是关于更快、更高、更强，还包括以积极的态度接受体育运动)”并综合全文可知，本文主要讲述从新一代中国运动员身上看到，他们不再只关注金牌而是享受竞争本身，践行真正的奥林匹克精神。所以短文的最佳标题为“践行真正的奥林匹克精神”。故选D项。 第Ⅱ卷 第四部分：写作（共两节；满分35分） 第一节：阅读表达（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分） 阅读下面短文，按照要求完成阅读任务。 My family had moved into a new house with big back yard. For some time, my older brother and I had been expecting a family pet. Finally, we managed to persuade our parents that the time had come for keeping one. Though my brother and I were of like minds about the goal of having a family member, what exactly it meant to each of us was entirely different. I was excited and happy when my parents brought home the dog, Snoopy. Despite the fun of playing with him，I knew it was really more my brother’s pet than mine. I really, really wanted a cat! I tried to show my joy for getting a pet while trying to hide my disappointment that he wasn’t a cat. My parents must have known how I was feeling because they suggested that I could make a wish about it. Running to my bedroom, I made a wish sincerely that I would have a cat. Not more than a minute or two passed when I heard a faint scratching sound(轻微的抓挠声) coming from the front door. Curious, I stood up, approaching the open front door. There, sitting calmly before me was a large, white cat. I was absolutely amazed! I went close to the white cat, and it began walking towards me. I gathered his mass into my arms and then I went into the back yard where my parents and brother were playing with Snoopy. So, Snowball joined our household that day, too. Although my parents always denied having anything to do with Snowball's arrival, I guessed they might have. However, even if they did somehow arrange for him to appear at the front door at the very moment when I was making a wish for a cat, it would not reduce the miracle of a cat doing in my life. 51. What were the author's parents persuaded to do? (no more than 10 words) 52. Why did the author feel disappointed? (no more than 10 words) 53. What happened to the author after her wish? (no more than 10 words) 54 How can we understand the underlined part in Paragraph 4? (no more than 10 words) 55. What do you think of the author's parents? And why? (no more than 20 words) 【答案】51. They were persuaded to raise /keep a family pet. 52. Because she wanted a cat instead of a dog. 53. A large，white cat appeared at the front door./ She saw a large , white cat at the front door. 54. The author picked up the cat with her arms./ The author held /hugged/embraced the cat with her arms. 55. I think they are great because of their way to realize the kid’s wish is interesting and moving. 【解析】 【分析】这是一篇记叙文。作者和哥哥说服父母养一只家庭宠物，但是一开始父母带回来的是一只狗，作者虽然很失望不是猫，但依然很喜欢狗，隐藏起了自己的失望。惊喜的是，父母也给她带了一只猫，在让她许愿后，猫咪就出现在了门口。 【51题详解】 考查细节理解。根据第一段最后两句“For some time, my older brother and I had been expecting a family pet. Finally, we managed to persuade our parents that the time had come for keeping one.”（有一段时间，我哥哥和我一直希望能有一只家庭宠物。最后，我们终于说服了父母，让他们相信是时候养一个了。）可知，作者的父母被说服养一只宠物。根据要求，答案长度不能超过10个单词。故答案为They were persuaded to raise /keep a family pet. 【52题详解】 考查细节理解。根据第二段第四句和第五句“I really, really wanted a cat! I tried to show my joy for getting a pet while trying to hide my disappointment that he wasn’t a cat.”（我真的很想要一只猫！我试着表现我养宠物的喜悦，同时又试着掩饰我对他不是猫的失望。）可知，作者感到失望是因为她想要的是一只猫而不是一只狗。根据要求，答案长度不能超过10个单词。故答案为Because she wanted a cat instead of a dog. 【53题详解】 考查细节理解。根据第三段最后两句“Curious, I stood up, approaching the open front door. There, sitting calmly before me was a large, white cat.”（我好奇地站了起来，走向开着的前门。那儿，一只又大又白的猫静静地坐在我面前。）可知，在许愿后，作者在前门看到了一只又大又白的猫。根据要求，答案长度不能超过10个单词。故答案为A large，white cat appeared at the front door./ She saw a large , white cat at the front door. 【54题详解】 考查句意猜测。根据“I went close to the white cat, and it began walking towards me.”我走近那只白猫，它开始向我走来。根据第四段第三句中的“then I went into the back yard where my parents and brother were playing with Snoopy”（然后我走进后院，我的父母和哥哥正在那里和史努比玩）可知，此处是指作者抱着猫走进后院，所以“I gathered his mass into my arms”的意思是作者用胳膊抱起了猫。根据要求，答案长度不能超过10个单词。故答案为The author picked up the cat with her arms./ The author held /hugged/embraced the cat with her arms. 【55题详解】 考查开放性回答。回答问题时，应先表达你对作者的父母的看法，再说明原因，看法和原因应基于故事内容。故参考答案为I think they are great because of their way to realize the kid’s wish is interesting and moving. 第二节：书面表达（满分25分） 56. 假如你是李华，“世界海洋日”即将来临。请代表校学生会用英语写一封倡议书，呼吁大家保护海洋动物。内容包括： 1. 发出倡议的缘由； 2. 如何保护海洋动物； 3. 号召大家一起行动。 注意：1. 词数100左右； 2. 可适当增加细节，以使行文连贯。 参考词汇：世界海洋日:World Oceans Day 海洋动物marine animals With the approaching of World Ocean Day, _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Students’ Union, June 6th 【答案】范文 Dear fellows, With the approaching of World Ocean Day, we would like to call on everyone to protect marine animals.

The Museum of Brands D. The Foundling Museum B That cold January night, I was growing sick of my life in San Francisco. There I was, walking home at one in the morning after a tiring practice at the theater. With opening night only a week away, I was still learning my lines. I was having trouble dealing with my part-time job at the bank and my acting at night at the same time. As I walked, I thought seriously about giving up both acting and San Francisco. City life had become too much for me. As I walked down empty streets under tall buildings, I felt very small and cold. I began running, both to keep warm and to keep away from any possible robbers. Very few people were still out except a few sad-looking homeless people under blankets. About a block from my apartment, I heard a sound behind me. I turned quickly, half expecting to see someone with a knife or a gun. The street was empty. All I saw was a shining streetlight. Still, the noise had made me nervous, so I started to run faster. Not until I reached my apartment building and unlocked the door did I realize what the noise had been. It had been my wallet falling to the sidewalk. Suddenly I wasn’t cold or tired anymore. I ran out of the door and back to where I’d heard the noise. Although I searched the sidewalk anxiously for fifteen minutes, my wallet was nowhere to be found. Just as I was about to give up the search, I heard the garbage truck pulled up to the sidewalk next to me. When a voice called from the inside, “Alisa Camacho?” I thought I was dreaming. How could this man know my name? The door opened, and out jumped a small red-haired man with an amused look in his eyes: “Is this what you’re looking for?” he asked, holding up a small square shape. It was nearly 3 a.m. by the time I got into bed. I wouldn’t get much sleep that night, but I had gotten my wallet back. I also had gotten back some enjoyment of city life. I realized that the city couldn’t be a bad place as long as people were willing to help each other. 41. How did the author feel when she was walking home after work? A. Cold and sick. B. Fortunate and hopeful. C. Satisfied and cheerful. D. Disappointed and helpless. 42. What is the author’s problem in Paragraph 1? A. She didn’t know how to learn acting in an evening school. B. She failed to balance her part-time job and acting. C. She had to take part in various city activities. D. She gave up both acting and San Francisco. 43. On her way home the author ______. A. lost her wallet unknowingly B. was stopped by a garbage truck driver C. was robbed of her wallet by an armed man D. found some homeless people following her 44. In the fifth paragraph, why did the author say she was dreaming? A. Her wallet was found in a garbage truck. B. Someone offered to take her back home. C. She heard someone call her name. D. A red-haired man came to see her. 45. From the passage, we can infer that the author ______. A. would stop working at night B. would stay on in San Francisco C. would make friends with cleaners D. would give up her job at the bank C Since the beginning of the Paris 2024 Olympic Games, many exciting and unforgettable moments have been shared by athletes and audiences worldwide. But beyond the victories and defeats, there is something more to admire: the positive and energetic manner of China’s young athletes, coupled with their amazing record-breaking achievements. On Aug 4, 21-year-old Zheng Qinwen made history for Chinese tennis by winning the first gold medal in women’s singles for both China and Asia. Just the following day, the young Chinese swimming team ended the US’s decadeslong unbeaten history in the men’s relay. Equally inspiring is the positive mindset exhibited by these young athletes. They are confident and inclusive (包容的), both in competition and cross-cultural interactions, trying hard to achieve excellence and breakthrough performances. Moreover, they have moved away from the “gold medal only” mindset, embracing (拥抱) a calmer and more sensible approach to sports, which reflects a significant change in their view. There are countless examples. From 18-year-old BMX freestyle cyclist Deng Yawen to 26-year-old swimmer Zhang Yufei, many young athletes have captivated global audiences and held the world’s attention with their self-assured approach to competition. They enjoy competing from the bottom of their heart. When Zhang, China’s “butterfly queen”, missed out on a gold medal, she said, “I hope this time I can have a relaxed attitude and really enjoy the Olympics.” This change in mindset and manner has moved the public focus away from just winning gold medals to appreciating the respect and honor that athletes and the Olympics truly deserve. On the Olympic stage, these young people uphold the proud traditions of Chinese sports while showing a new image of a confident and open China. But what exactly is the Olympic spirit? It’s not just about being faster, higher, stronger, but also about embracing sports with a positive attitude. 46. What can we know about the athletes mentioned in the passage?

For some time, my older brother and I had been expecting a family pet. Finally, we managed to persuade our parents that the time had come for keeping one. Though my brother and I were of like minds about the goal of having a family member, what exactly it meant to each of us was entirely different. I was excited and happy when my parents brought home the dog, Snoopy. Despite the fun of playing with him，I knew it was really more my brother’s pet than mine. I really, really wanted a cat! I tried to show my joy for getting a pet while trying to hide my disappointment that he wasn’t a cat. My parents must have known how I was feeling because they suggested that I could make a wish about it. Running to my bedroom, I made a wish sincerely that I would have a cat. Not more than a minute or two passed when I heard a faint scratching sound(轻微的抓挠声) coming from the front door. Curious, I stood up, approaching the open front door. There, sitting calmly before me was a large, white cat. I was absolutely amazed! I went close to the white cat, and it began walking towards me. I gathered his mass into my arms and then I went into the back yard where my parents and brother were playing with Snoopy. So, Snowball joined our household that day, too. Although my parents always denied having anything to do with Snowball's arrival, I guessed they might have. However, even if they did somehow arrange for him to appear at the front door at the very moment when I was making a wish for a cat, it would not reduce the miracle of a cat doing in my life. 51.
