He always found his ideas from nature. During a boat trip to the State of Chu, the sight of the river and mountains moved him to play. After a while, he noticed Zhong Ziqi, a woodsman, standing quietly on the bank, enjoying the music. Yu invited Zhong to join him. First, Yu played music that described (描述) tall mountains. Zhong listened carefully and said, “How wonderful! It makes me see the big and grand Taishan Mountain!” Then Yu played music that described running water. Zhong smiled, “Wonderful too! It makes me see the fast-flowing river!” Yu was very surprised. “You really understand my music!” he said. So the qin player and the woodsman became good friends. They made a promise: they would meet again at the same place the next year. When the next year came, Yu went to the meeting place. But he got bad news—Zhong had died of an illness. Quite sad, he took out his qin and played the “High Mountains and Flowing Water” music again. “My best friend has passed away,” he said. “No one in the world understands my music any more.” After saying this, he broke his qin into pieces and never played the qin again.

Finding your suitable learning style makes studying easier and more efficient (高效的). Here are four simple ways to help find the best one for you. First, try visual learning. Visual learners learn well by seeing and watching. You can watch in-person or online demos, like a Bilibili video on fixing a broken pipe. Other visual methods include using maps, drawings, or note cards. These let you “see” information clearly and remember it easily. Second, test hands-on learning. Tactile (hands-on) learners learn best by doing. For example, if you study a city’s history, visit places of interest like the Palace Museum in Beijing. You can also interview people or do experiments (实验), like growing a plant for science. Direct action helps you catch ideas quickly. Third, check auditory learning. Auditory learners learn through listening. To test this style, use audio books or taped lectures (录音讲座). You can also talk with classmates about topics. Hearing and discussing help you remember key points. Finally, don’t forget to take an online test. After trying the three styles above, taking 1 or 2 quizzes can help: check if the quiz result matches the style you think works best for you. In short, these methods help you find your best learning style. Then you may study smarter and get better results. 18. What can visual learners do to know the Great Wall best? A. Paying a visit to it during the holiday. B. Taking part in a talk on it in the hall. C. Talking with history teachers about it. D. Making note cards about it as reading. 19. How does the writer introduce tactile learning? A. By giving examples. B. By listing numbers. C. By asking questions. D. By comparing ideas. 20. Which of the following can we infer (推断) about auditory learners from the passage? A. They need to listen to the same audio 10 times to remember it. B. They can only learn well by listening to pre-recorded materials. C. They will always get higher scores in English listening tests. D. They may find it easier to remember a story by listening to it. 21. What is the structure of the passage? A. B. C. D. 【答案】18. D 19. A 20. D 21. B 【解析】 【导语】本文主要介绍了不同的学习风格（视觉、动手、听觉），并给出了找到适合自己学习风格的方法，帮助学习者更高效地学习。 【18题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第2段“Other visual methods include using maps, drawings, or note cards.”可知，视觉学习者的方法包含制作笔记卡，选项D符合该特点，故选D。 【19题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第3段“For example, if you study a city’s history, visit places of interest like the Palace Museum in Beijing. You can also interview people or do experiments (实验), like growing a plant for science.”可知，作者通过举例子介绍动手学习，选项A符合，故选A。 【20题详解】 推理判断题根据文章第4段“Auditory learners learn through listening... Hearing and discussing help you remember key points.”可知，听觉学习者通过倾听记忆内容，选项D“通过听故事可能更容易记住它。”符合该特点，故选D。 【21题详解】 篇章结构题。文章第1段总起（说明学习风格的重要性及找方法的目的），第2—5段分述四种方法，第6段总结（找到适合学习风格的好处），该结构与选项B一致，故选B。 D Jack opened his eyes and looked out the window.

The book says it was built in 2031—so it’s from the future!” “So what’s a moon base?” asked Annie.

He took out his notebook, drew the tree house and showed the X in his drawing. “We’re here.” Jack looked up. Annie was nowhere to be found. “Again!” Jack said. As usual, she left without him. Jack looked at his diagram (示意图), which showed only one way to go. He walked along the white wall to the stairs and climbed them to a hallway (走廊). “Jack—hurry!” Annie was at the end of it. Jack hurried toward her. What he saw took his breath away. He looked at a gray land filled with giant craters (陨石坑) and tall mountains.

Because 46. began 47. studying 48. my 49. a 50. about 51. tips 52. easier 53. carefully 【解析】 【导语】本文介绍了多语言学习者语言学习方法，包括听力训练、“1小时禁用母语”规则等。 【44题详解】 句意：那么，为什么不向他们学习一些方法呢？“why not+动词原形”是固定结构，意为“为什么不做某事”，故填learn。 【45题详解】 句意：因为如果你有良好的听力理解能力，它会为其他技能的发展打开大门。前文“Why?”是提问原因，此处需用Because回答，句首首字母大写，故填Because。 【46题详解】 句意：Luca在11岁时开始学习法语。根据“at the age of 11”可知，此处描述过去的动作，用一般过去时，begin的过去式是began，故填began。 【47题详解】 句意：那意味着当你学习的时候，把收音机当作背景声音播放。本句为while引导的时间状语从句，因从句有you’re，故空处需现在分词构成现在进行时，故填studying。 【48题详解】 句意：白天，有些东西会引起我的注意。此处修饰名词attention，用形容词性物主代词my，故填my。 【49题详解】 句意：也许是一则广告，或者是一首我喜欢的歌。song是可数名词单数，此处表泛指，且song以辅音音素开头，用不定冠词a，故填a。 【50题详解】 句意：我通常很好奇里面发生了什么。“be curious about”是固定搭配，意为“对……好奇”，故填about。 【51题详解】 句意：他的技巧之一是 “1小时禁用英语规则”。“one of+可数名词复数”表示“……之一”，tip的复数是tips，故填tips。 【52题详解】 句意：通过这种方式，语言学习者用另一种语言思考会容易得多。much修饰比较级，easy的比较级是easier，故填easier。 【53题详解】 句意：他的另一个技巧是仔细规划你的对话。此处修饰动词plan，用副词carefully，故填carefully。 第七部分 阅读表达 (共3题；79小题2分、80小题2分、81小题3分，满分7分) Hi, I’m David House, a Teens writer from the UK. Here, I help solve Teens readers’ problems. I hope I can help with yours. Q: Dear David, I’m in a friendship that makes me feel uncomfortable. I feel my friend is competing (竞争) with me all the time. But we are also nice to each other in everything. I’m confused (困惑的). Are we really good friends? Amy A: Dear Amy, Friendships can be confusing. Sometimes friends compete with each other but a little competition can be good. Why? Because it can make both of you try harder and do better. If you and your friend are happy for each other when one of you succeeds, then this can be a good friendship. But if you are always competing and it makes you feel bad, it might be a problem. A friend should make you feel happy and supported, not stressed. If your friend is jealous (嫉妒的) when you do well, or if you feel jealous of them, this can be unhealthy. Try talking to your friend about how you feel. This can help your friend understand you better. You can also take this chance to ask if they feel the same way. Doing both can make your friendship stronger. Remember, a true friend is like a strong tree, always there to support you and make you feel safe and valued (有价值的). David 54. What’s Amy’s problem? ___________________________________________ 55. How can Amy solve her problem according to David? ___________________________________________ 56. What do you think is a healthy friendship? Why? ___________________________________________ 【答案】54. She’s in a friendship that makes her feel uncomfortable. 55. By talking to her friend about how she feels and asking if they feel the same way. 56. A healthy friendship is like sunshine. It makes us feel warm and happy, and helps us grow together. (言之有理即可) 【解析】 【导语】本文主要介绍了作者David以专栏作者身份，回应了一位名叫Amy的读者的来信，讨论了她在一段充满竞争但又相互友好的友谊中感到困惑的问题，并给出了如何沟通以及如何看待健康友谊的建议。 【54题详解】 根据“I’m in a friendship that makes me feel uncomfortable. I feel my friend is competing with me all the time. But we are also nice to each other in everything. I’m confused. Are we really good friends?”可知，Amy的问题是身处一段让她不适的友谊，因为朋友总与她竞争，但她们又相处友好，这让她困惑这是否是真正的友谊。故填She’s in a friendship that makes her feel uncomfortable. 【55题详解】 根据“Try talking to your friend about how you feel. This can help your friend understand you better. You can also take this chance to ask if they feel the same way.”可知，David建议Amy尝试与朋友沟通自己的感受，并询问对方是否有同感。故填By talking to her friend about how she feels and asking if they feel the same way. 【56题详解】 本题为开放性问题，答案不唯一，结合自身理由，合理作答即可。故填A healthy friendship is like sunshine. It makes us feel warm and happy, and helps us grow together. 第八部分 书面表达 (共1题；满分25分) 57. 赵元任通过模仿苦练精通多国语言，富兰克林为探究风暴规律在雷雨中冒险追踪。他们的故事告诉我们：学习的成功，既离不开勤奋，也需要不畏艰难的勇气和持之以恒的毅力。 Teenage Life 杂志社正在举办“乘风破浪的我们”主题征文活动，请以“Break the wave”为题，向全校同学分享你的“破浪”故事。 内容包括： 1. 请从下列图示中任选或自选一种你曾遇到的难题； 2. 你是通过何种努力与方法来克服它的； 3. 你的收获与感受。 注意：1.词数：100左右；2.文中不得出现与考生相关真实的姓名和校名等相关信息。 Break the wave _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】例文 Break the wave When I started Grade 8, I found Physics very difficult to learn.

Some teenagers always say that they can’t feel love in their life. That’s because some people show love without saying it. So I share some common ways of showing love in the comics (漫画). I love these animal friends. They have their little magic to help one another, such as the little rabbit and the fox. They like saying words that are full of love. 11. How does the writer share the understanding of love? A. By words. B. By comics. C. By actions. D. By phone. 12. Which of the following is right for ▲? A. Love is trusting your best friend. B. Love is taking care of myself. C Love is finding the beauty of the world. D. Love is getting you what you need now. 13. Who is the text for? A. Teenagers. B. Parents. C. Teachers. D. Doctors. B During the Spring and Autumn Period (770-476 BC), there was a master of the qin instrument named Yu Boya. He always found his ideas from nature. During a boat trip to the State of Chu, the sight of the river and mountains moved him to play. After a while, he noticed Zhong Ziqi, a woodsman, standing quietly on the bank, enjoying the music. Yu invited Zhong to join him. First, Yu played music that described (描述) tall mountains. Zhong listened carefully and said, “How wonderful! It makes me see the big and grand Taishan Mountain!” Then Yu played music that described running water. Zhong smiled, “Wonderful too! It makes me see the fast-flowing river!” Yu was very surprised. “You really understand my music!” he said. So the qin player and the woodsman became good friends. They made a promise: they would meet again at the same place the next year. When the next year came, Yu went to the meeting place. But he got bad news—Zhong had died of an illness. Quite sad, he took out his qin and played the “High Mountains and Flowing Water” music again. “My best friend has passed away,” he said. “No one in the world understands my music any more.” After saying this, he broke his qin into pieces and never played the qin again. The story shows that real friendship doesn’t lie in who you are or how long you’ve known each other. Instead, it’s about two people sharing the same love. 14. What did Yu Boya do when he saw Zhong Ziqi enjoying his music? A. He stopped playing the qin at once. B. He invited Zhong Ziqi to get on his boat. C. He asked Zhong Ziqi to play the qin. D. He told Zhong Ziqi about his trip to Chu. 15. What does the underlined word “promise” mean in the second paragraph? A. an agreement B. a small gift C. a short music piece D. a piece of advice 16. Why did Yu Boya break his qin? A. Because his qin was old and broken. B. Because he didn’t like to play the qin. C. Because he had lost the one who understood him. D. Because he wanted to buy a new qin. 17. What is the passage mainly about? A. Playing the qin is a good way to make new friends. B. True friendship is based on understanding and love. C. We should always keep the promises to our friends. D. Nature is one of the best teachers for some musicians. C Everyone learns differently—some people understand better by seeing, some by doing, and others by listening. Finding your suitable learning style makes studying easier and more efficient (高效的). Here are four simple ways to help find the best one for you. First, try visual learning. Visual learners learn well by seeing and watching. You can watch in-person or online demos, like a Bilibili video on fixing a broken pipe. Other visual methods include using maps, drawings, or note cards. These let you “see” information clearly and remember it easily. Second, test hands-on learning. Tactile (hands-on) learners learn best by doing. For example, if you study a city’s history, visit places of interest like the Palace Museum in Beijing. You can also interview people or do experiments (实验), like growing a plant for science. Direct action helps you catch ideas quickly. Third, check auditory learning. Auditory learners learn through listening. To test this style, use audio books or taped lectures (录音讲座). You can also talk with classmates about topics. Hearing and discussing help you remember key points. Finally, don’t forget to take an online test. After trying the three styles above, taking 1 or 2 quizzes can help: check if the quiz result matches the style you think works best for you. In short, these methods help you find your best learning style. Then you may study smarter and get better results. 18. What can visual learners do to know the Great Wall best? A. Paying a visit to it during the holiday. B. Taking part in a talk on it in the hall. C. Talking with history teachers about it. D. Making note cards about it as reading. 19. How does the writer introduce tactile learning? A. By giving examples. B. By listing numbers. C. By asking questions. D. By comparing ideas. 20. Which of the following can we infer (推断) about auditory learners from the passage? A. They need to listen to the same audio 10 times to remember it. B. They can only learn well by listening to pre-recorded materials. C. They will always get higher scores in English listening tests. D They may find it easier to remember a story by listening to it. 21. What is the structure of the passage? A. B. C. D. D Jack opened his eyes and looked out the window. The tree house landed inside a large, white room. He had no idea where he was. He looked at the page in the moon book and read the words below: “A moon base was built on the moon in 2031. The top of the dome (穹顶) opens to let spacecraft enter and leave.” “Oh, man—look!” Jack shouted, eyes wide, his heart beating like crazy, “We’ve landed inside a moon base! The book says it was built in 2031—so it’s from the future!” “So what’s a moon base?” asked Annie. Jack looked at the book and read aloud: “When scientists visit the moon for short periods, they eat and sleep in the moon base, which has a landing space and a room for storing spacesuits.” “We have to find the fourth thing for Morgan,” said Annie. “No, first we should study this map,” said Jack. He took out his notebook, drew the tree house and showed the X in his drawing. “We’re here.” Jack looked up. Annie was nowhere to be found. “Again!” Jack said. As usual, she left without him. Jack looked at his diagram (示意图), which showed only one way to go. He walked along the white wall to the stairs and climbed them to a hallway (走廊). “Jack—hurry!” Annie was at the end of it. Jack hurried toward her. What he saw took his breath away. He looked at a gray land filled with giant craters (陨石坑) and tall mountains. The sun was shining but the sky was ink-black! “Say hi to the moon,” Annie said softly. ——Extracted from Magic Tree House—Midnight on the Moon 22. What did Jack and Annie find out about the place they landed in? A. It was an empty space store. B. It was a well-built space hotel. C. It was a future moving library. D. It was a moon base built in 2031. 23. How did Jack feel when knowing the truth? A. Sad. B. Excited. C. Angry. D. Hopeless. 24. What can we infer from the fact that Annie left without Jack? A. Annie didn’t like to do things with Jack all the time. B. Annie was more interested in the moon base than Jack. C. Annie was impatient and couldn’t wait to explore. D. Annie wanted to protect Jack from unknown danger. 25. What might happen next? A. They will go back to the tree house and leave the moon base. B They will search the moon base for the fourth thing for Morgan. C. They will try to find a way to communicate with the astronauts. D. They will stay in the airlock and wait for someone to come. 第四部分 信息还原 (共5小题；每小题1分，满分5分) 请认真阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。 A new term begins, and you have many new books on your desk.

But we are also nice to each other in everything. I’m confused (困惑的). Are we really good friends? Amy A: Dear Amy, Friendships can be confusing. Sometimes friends compete with each other, but a little competition can be good. Why? Because it can make both of you try harder and do better.
