The three-day event is a celebration of red hair, a feature only shared by only 1%-2% of the global population. And although redheads can be found all over the world, the numbers are higher for people from the north of Europe, where the rate (比率) is between 2% and 6%. For many attendees, like 30-year-old Scottish Liam Hunter, the festival is an opportunity to feel a sense of belonging and self-acceptance. Hunter, who has experienced bullying(欺凌) due to his hair colour, expressed a sense of satisfaction and unity at the event. "I don't feel alone anymore. I feel together, a part of something," he said. The event, which attracted about 5,000 redheads from various countries, offered a range of activities including painting workshops, makeup and skincare knowledge, photo shoots, musical performances, and speed-meet events. Interestingly, the festival's start was somewhat accidental. Bart Rouwenhorst, an artist and the event's organiser, placed an advertisement in the local newspaper in 2005 seeking 15 red-haired models for a painting project. Surprisingly, he received responses from 150 individuals. Although Rouwenhorst is not a redhead himself, he decided to organise a group photo with all the respondents. The gathering got much attention and was considered a success, leading the organisers to establish it as an annual event. Now the festival serves as a special stage for redheads to celebrate their differences, develop a sense of community, and raise awareness about the challenges they face, such as bullying and increased sensitivity(过敏) to the sun. It also provides an opportunity for non-redheads to learn about and appreciate the uniqueness of red hair. 1. What can we learn from the first paragraph? A. Redheads celebrate their festival with various activities. B. Red hair is a common disease among the global population. C. The Redhead Days Festival is celebrated around the world. D. Population in northern Europe has a higher rate of redheads. 2. What does Hunter's experience tell us? A. The redheads enjoy a high social position. B. The redheads take pride in their difference. C. The redheads face discrimination sometimes. D. The redheads have trouble keeping up with others. 3. What is Paragraph 4 mainly about? A. The origin of the festival. B. The popularity of the festival. C. Customs during the festival. D. Activities during the festival. 4. Which of the following can best describe the event? A. Challenging. B. Informal. C. Remarkable. D. Meaningless. B The 33-year-old Australian, Bradley, is actually a student in international relations completing his PhD through Griffith University. He came to Beijing for a cooperative research at Peking University less than two years ago. Such an academic life was just added colour with a chance offered by the cultural exchanges project, "I'm in China". Bradley was lucky to win the most "likes" for his photo story about his life in China and became one of 20 winners to visit locations after a global recruitment (招募) by the project this summer. All the winners' experiences were filmed to produce a reality show, My Chinese Working Day, which will be broadcast by mid-September. The film crew took them to many "amazing sites" and the staff taught them a lot about how to incorporate modern Chinese characteristics while still keeping traditional customs. "I would have to say two things stick out as the most memorable: the helicopter ride and talking with the staff at the hotel about how they organise weddings here in China," he said. That was Bradley's first time to be in a helicopter, and he was too absorbed with the awesome view of the beautiful coastline. "I think it is so important to show other Australians the different landscapes China has to offer. I think so many Australians, when they think about China, imagine the historical sites of Beijing and the exciting things to see in Shanghai but have no idea about other beautiful places, like Sanya or the many other places people have been taken to in this TV series," Bradley said. "I'm in China" is a project sponsored by China Intercontinental Communication Centre and other institutions under the guidance of China's State Council Information Office. It invites foreign natives worldwide to experience unique jobs and participate in activities that one can find nowhere else except in China. 5. What does the underlined word "incorporate" in Paragraph 2 mean? A. Distinguish. B. Clarify. C. Receive. D. Include. 6. According to this text, what impresses Bradley most in his experience in China? A. The historical sites and the exciting things to see. B. The thrilling ride and the unique wedding arrangements. C. The different landscapes and traditional customs. D. The unique jobs and kind-hearted Chinese people. 7. What's the author's purpose of writing the text? A. To introduce the cultural exchange project. B. To invite the Australians to visit China. C. To inform us of the reality show. D. To tell an experience in China. 8. In which column are we likely to read this text? A. Education. B. Environment. C. Culture. D. History.

D 细节理解题。根据第一段中的"And although redheads can be found all over the world, the numbers are higher for people from the north of Europe, where the rate(比率) is between 2% and 6%."可知，北欧人的红发率较高。故选D。 2. C 细节理解题。根据第二段中的"Hunter, who has experienced bullying(欺凌) due to his hair colour..."可知，亨特的经历告诉我们红头发的人有时会受到歧视。故选C。 3. A 段落大意题。根据第四段内容，特别是"Interestingly, the festival's start was somewhat accidental..."以及它如何演变为年度活动的描述可知，该段主要讲述了节日的起源。故选A。 4. C 推理判断题。根据全文内容，特别是节日吸引了数千人参加、成为年度盛事、为参与者提供归属感和社区感等，可以推断出这一活动是引人注目的（Remarkable）。Challenging（有挑战性的）、Informal（非正式的）、Meaningless（无意义的）均不符合文意。故选C。 B 语篇导读： 本文是一篇新闻报道。文章主要介绍了澳大利亚博士生布拉德利通过参与“我在中国”文化交换项目，以优胜者的身份体验了中国之行，并被拍摄进真人秀节目。文章通过布拉德利的讲述，介绍了他在中国印象深刻的活动（如乘坐直升机、了解中国婚礼安排）和感受，同时展示了该项目旨在邀请外国人体验中国独特职业和文化的宗旨。 5. D 词义猜测题。根据划线词所在的句子“...the staff taught them a lot about how to incorporate modern Chinese characteristics while still keeping traditional customs.” 可知，工作人员教他们如何将现代中国特色融入，同时保留传统习俗。因此，incorporate 意为“包含，融入”，与 include 同义。A项“区分”、B项“澄清”、C项“接收”均不符合语境。 6. B 细节理解题。根据第二段中布拉德利本人的话“I would have to say two things stick out as the most memorable: the helicopter ride and talking with the staff at the hotel about how they organise weddings here in China,” 可知，给他留下最深刻印象的是乘坐直升机的激动人心的体验和与中国酒店工作人员关于婚礼安排的独特交谈。A项“历史遗迹和令人兴奋的景点”是他认为许多澳大利亚人的普遍印象，并非他个人最印象深刻的；C项“不同的地貌和传统习俗”范围较宽泛；D项“独特的工作和善良的中国人”在文中未明确作为他最深刻的印象提及。 7. A 写作目的题。通读全文可知，文章以布拉德利的个人经历为切入点，详细介绍了“我在中国”这一文化交流项目的招募过程、活动内容（拍摄真人秀）、以及项目的赞助方和宗旨。因此，作者的主要目的是介绍这一文化交换项目。B项“邀请澳大利亚人访问中国”过于片面；C项“通知我们这部真人秀”和D项“讲述在中国的经历”都是项目的一部分，但不足以概括全文的主要写作目的。 8. C 推理判断题。文章核心内容是介绍一个旨在促进文化交流、让外国人体验中国文化的项目，并分享了一位参与者的文化体验经历。因此，最有可能出现在“文化”栏目中。A项“教育”、B项“环境”、D项“历史”都与文章主题不符。 II. 语法填空 语篇导读： 本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了浙江桐乡的水乡乌镇每年春节都会举办一系列充满当地元素的活动。 1. where 考查定语从句。空处引导限制性定语从句，修饰先行词 boats，且关系词在从句中作地点状语，应用关系副词 where。故填 where。 2. impression 考查名词。根据不定冠词 a 可知，此处应用名词 impression，作 leaves 的宾语。故填 impression。 3. obviously 考查副词。此处应用副词 obviously 作状语，修饰动词 became。故填 obviously。 4. a 考查冠词。根据语境可知，此处表示"组成一张长桌"，为泛指，应用不定冠词，且 long 的发音以辅音音素开头。故填 a。 5. to celebrate 考查非谓语动词。此处表示目的，应用不定式作目的状语。故填 to celebrate。 6. in 考查固定搭配。take part in 为固定搭配，意为"参加"。故填 in。 7. organises 考查动词的时态。此处是谓语，与 holds 并列；句子描述一般性事实，应用一般现在时；主语 The water town 是第三人称单数，谓语动词应用第三人称单数形式。故填 organises。 8. are presented 考查动词的时态、语态和主谓一致。此处在句中作谓语；句子描述一般性事实，应用一般现在时；主语"Spring Festival galas, theatre plays and art shows" 和动词 present 是被动关系，应用一般现在时的被动语态；主语是复数意义，be 动词应用 are。故填 are presented。 9. tourists 考查名词的数。分析句子结构可知，空处在 and 后的分句中作主语；tourist 为可数名词，应用复数形式，表示泛指。故填 tourists。 10. amazed 考查形容词。be amazed at 为固定搭配，意为 "对……感到惊讶"。故填 amazed。 III. 话题微写作 1.
