Asking for directions is the first thing we do when we arrive in a new place, or even when we are just trying to reach a strange place. Knowing how to ask for directions can make our life much easier.
Use greetings and polite expressions. Starting the conversation with a greeting is necessary. If you want to get an answer, you’d better begin by saying “hello” first. And some words like “may” “can” and “could” will help you express yourself better.
Build your words. You should know the basic words when asking for directions. It may be useful for you to remember some famous places. Then try to use the right words when asking for directions.
Get to know the transportation system (系统). Sometimes, you’re likely to find that you are still far from the place you want to visit. Which kind of public transportation should you choose? You might ask like this, “Is it far? Do I need to take the bus or the subway there?”
Don’t be afraid of using symbols. Every city in the world has its own symbols. You can decrease search time if you know what the most important symbols are in the city. And if you pay attention to your place, you may find that there are many symbols there.
Don’t be too shy to ask. Learn to relax if you get lost somewhere. Every person may do that now and then, especially when visiting a new city. But always make sure you can ask others for help.
24. How many pieces of advice on asking for directions are mentioned in this passage?
A. Three B. Four. C. Five.
25. What does the underlined word “decrease” mean in Chinese?
A. 增加 B. 浪费 C. 减少
26. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?
A. It’s necessary to start a conversation with a greeting.
B. It’s not useful to remember some famous places.
C. Every city has its own symbols.
27. What’s the best title of this passage?
A. How to visit a new place. B. How to build your words. C. How to ask for directions.
【答案】24. C 25. C 26. B 27. C
【解析】
【导语】本文介绍了在陌生地方问路的实用技巧,包括使用礼貌用语、掌握基本词汇、了解交通系统、利用城市标志以及勇于求助等建议。
【24题详解】
细节理解题。根据“Use greetings and polite expressions.”,“Build your words.”,“Get to know the transportation system (系统).”,“Don’t be afraid of using symbols.”和“Don’t be too shy to ask.”可知,文章共提到5条建议。故选C。
【25题详解】
词句猜测题。根据“You can decrease search time if you know what the most important symbols are in the city”和选项可推知,认识城市标志能帮助“减少”寻找时间,“decrease”意为“减少”。故选C。
【26题详解】
细节理解题。根据“It may be useful for you to remember some famous places.”可知,记住一些著名的地点是有用的,选项B“记住一些著名地点没用”与原文矛盾。故选B。
【27题详解】
最佳标题题。全文围绕“问路技巧”展开,从问候语到交通方式等均属于该主题,因此C项“How to ask for directions”(如何问路)最适合作为标题。故选C。

Do you know Labubu? It is a funny-looking monster (怪兽) with big eyes, sharp teeth and messy hair.
Inspired (启发) by fairy tales and children’s wild imagination, artist Kasing Lung from Hong Kong, China created Labubu in his book series The Monsters in 2015. Later, Chinese toy company Pop Mart brought these characters to life as dolls (玩偶).
Labubu became popular around the world in late 2024 and early 2025.
Now it is not only a fictional (虚构的) character but also refers to (指的是) the whole series, including different characters from its planet, such as Zimomo, Tycoco, and Mokoko. Some of these dolls look similar and are hard to tell apart, but collectors know the difference. The dolls are mainly sold in blind boxes, so you won’t know which one you’ll get, making it a surprise.
Both kids and adults have fallen in love with Labubu. “Labubu reminds me of childhood creativity,” says one of the Labubu fans. “Now my friends and I even design (设计) our own monster characters!”
Labubu’s success shows how creativity connects people worldwide. Though the fun of opening blind boxes brings delight, it’s important to enjoy them wisely and avoid overspending or compulsive (冲动的) collecting. After all, the real value (价值) lies in admiring the art, not just collecting.
28. What is the inspiration behind Labubu?
A. Modern art. B. Historical events. C. Kids’ imagination.
29. Why is buying a Labubu doll described as “a surprise”?
A. Because the boxes of the dolls are different.
B. Because all dolls from the series are beautiful.
C. Because buyers don’t know which doll is inside the box.
30. What does the underlined word “delight” mean in English?
A. Big trouble. B. Great happiness C. Careful planning.
31. What can be the best title for the passage?
A. Why it is important to be creative
B. How blind box toys become popular
C. Labubu: Small monster big creativity
【答案】28. C 29. C 30. B 31. C
【解析】
【导语】本文介绍了由香港艺术家Kasing Lung创作的Labubu怪兽系列,其灵感来源于童话和孩子们的想象力,并通过Pop Mart公司的盲盒玩偶在全球走红,展现了创意如何连接世界各地的人们。
【28题详解】
细节理解题。根据“Inspired (启发) by fairy tales and children’s wild imagination”可知,Labubu的创作灵感来自童话和孩子们的想象力。故选C。
【29题详解】
细节理解题。根据“The dolls are mainly sold in blind boxes, so you won’t know which one you’ll get, making it a surprise.”可知,购买Labubu玩偶是惊喜,因为买家不知道盒子里是哪款玩偶。故选C。
【30题详解】
词句猜测题。根据“the fun of opening blind boxes brings delight”中“fun”与“delight”的对应关系可知,“delight”意为“巨大的快乐”。故选B。
【31题详解】
最佳标题题。通读全文可知,文章主要介绍了Labubu这个创意玩偶的创作背景、特点和受欢迎程度,强调其体现的创造力价值,选项C“Labubu: Small monster, big creativity”可作为标题。故选C。

Try to be relaxed and don’t hold the pencil so hard. Let your writing appear nice and clean. If you do so, people will guess you are a student with good habits.
Handwriting is very important. Imagine you are a famous movie star or a well-known sports player, what do you do when your fans run up to you? Give them your autographs (亲笔签名), of course!
A. If not, here are three steps that really work!

根据“Is your English handwriting beautiful?”及“Use paper with lines...Slow down...”可知,文章先抛出问题“你的英文书写好看吗?”后文给出具体的方法,选项A“如果不好看,这里有三个切实有效的方法!”起到承上启下的作用,完美衔接问句和方法介绍,符合语境。故选A。

【34题详解】
根据“If your writing is hard to read, just slow down a little...If you write too quickly, it’s hard for you to stop where you should, and you may make more mistakes easily.”可知,前文说书写难以辨认就放慢一点,后文解释写太快的弊端,选项D“放慢速度能让你的书写更清晰。”直接点明“放慢速度”的好处,衔接前后句的因果逻辑,符合语境。故选D。
【35题详解】
根据“When you hold your pencil in the correct way, your writing is much better...people will guess you are a student with good habits.”可知,围绕“握笔姿势”展开,讲正确握笔、放松握笔力度能让书写更好,选项B“正确握笔。”概括了这部分核心内容,符合语境。故选B。

Liu Xiaoju, born in Loudi, Hunan in 1987, has brittle bone disease (脆骨病). Since she was 3, her bones have broken easily. But she never let this stop her from realizing her dream. In 2009, Liu joined a special embroidery (刺绣) training program for disabled people. For six months, she worked very hard to learn Xiangxiu. Her hard work paid off—between 2010 and 2019, she won many embroidery competitions and was named a “Loudi Craftsman” and a city-level inheritor (传承人) of Xiangxiu. In 2020, Liu started the Ju Girl Xiangxiu Dream Workshop. By now, she has offered free classes to over 800 students, most of whom are disabled. What’s more, to make Xiangxiu pieces affordable (买得起的) for more young people, Liu makes simpler and cheaper embroidery products like hairpins (发簪) and small bags. Though Liu’s workshop makes little money, she cares more about helping others and passing on Xiangxiu. Now, at 38, Liu feels happy and satisfied. She said, “I’m lucky because my dream has come true.”

Asking for directions is the first thing we do when we arrive in a new place, or even when we are just trying to reach a strange place. Knowing how to ask for directions can make our life much easier.
Use greetings and polite expressions. Starting the conversation with a greeting is necessary. If you want to get an answer, you’d better begin by saying “hello” first. And some words like “may” “can” and “could” will help you express yourself better.
Build your words. You should know the basic words when asking for directions. It may be useful for you to remember some famous places. Then try to use the right words when asking for directions.
Get to know the transportation system (系统). Sometimes, you’re likely to find that you are still far from the place you want to visit. Which kind of public transportation should you choose? You might ask like this, “Is it far? Do I need to take the bus or the subway there?”
Don’t be afraid of using symbols. Every city in the world has its own symbols. You can decrease search time if you know what the most important symbols are in the city. And if you pay attention to your place, you may find that there are many symbols there.
Don’t be too shy to ask. Learn to relax if you get lost somewhere. Every person may do that now and then, especially when visiting a new city. But always make sure you can ask others for help.
24. How many pieces of advice on asking for directions are mentioned in this passage?
A. Three B. Four. C. Five.
25. What does the underlined word “decrease” mean in Chinese?
A. 增加 B. 浪费 C. 减少
26. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?
A. It’s necessary to start a conversation with a greeting.
B. It’s not useful to remember some famous places.
C. Every city has its own symbols.
27. What’s the best title of this passage?
A. How to visit a new place. B. How to build your words. C. How to ask for directions.

Do you know Labubu? It is a funny-looking monster (怪兽) with big eyes, sharp teeth and messy hair.
Inspired (启发) by fairy tales and children’s wild imagination, artist Kasing Lung from Hong Kong, China created Labubu in his book series The Monsters in 2015. Later, Chinese toy company Pop Mart brought these characters to life as dolls (玩偶).
Labubu became popular around the world in late 2024 and early 2025.
Now it is not only a fictional (虚构的) character but also refers to (指的是) the whole series, including different characters from its planet, such as Zimomo, Tycoco, and Mokoko. Some of these dolls look similar and are hard to tell apart, but collectors know the difference. The dolls are mainly sold in blind boxes, so you won’t know which one you’ll get, making it a surprise.
Both kids and adults have fallen in love with Labubu. “Labubu reminds me of childhood creativity,” says one of the Labubu fans. “Now my friends and I even design (设计) our own monster characters!”
Labubu’s success shows how creativity connects people worldwide. Though the fun of opening blind boxes brings delight, it’s important to enjoy them wisely and avoid overspending or compulsive (冲动的) collecting. After all, the real value (价值) lies in admiring the art, not just collecting.
28. What is the inspiration behind Labubu?
A. Modern art. B. Historical events. C. Kids’ imagination.
29. Why is buying a Labubu doll described as “a surprise”?
A. Because the boxes of the dolls are different.
B. Because all dolls from the series are beautiful.
C. Because buyers don’t know which doll is inside the box.
30. What does the underlined word “delight” mean in English?
A. Big trouble. B. Great happiness C. Careful planning.
31. What can be the best title for the passage?
A. Why it is important to be creative
B. How blind box toys become popular
C. Labubu: Small monster, big creativity
