Below are four of them: Old Town of Lijiang Lijiang Old Town fits perfectly with the hilly land of this important business and strategic place. It has kept a high-quality, true historic town look. First built in the late 13th century AD, the town is a mix of cultures from many ethnic groups (少数民族). It also has a special Naxi architectural style and traditional culture. Heritage location & inclusion time (列入时间): Lijiang City, Yunnan Province; 1997 Best time to visit: Spring and autumn, avoiding rainy season in summer Time needed: Half to one day Classical Gardens of Suzhou Suzhou gardens are the most typical symbol of Jiangnan. The design of classical Chinese gardens tries to copy natural views in a small space — and this idea is best shown in Suzhou’s beautiful gardens. These private gardens were built from the 11th to the 19th century. Heritage location & inclusion time: Suzhou City, Jiangsu Province; 1997 Best time to visit: Spring and autumn with pleasant climate and lots of plants Time needed: 2-3 hours for one garden,5 hours to 2 days for several gardens Ancient City of Pingyao Founded in the 14th century, Pingyao Ancient City — a China’s cultural heritage — is a very well-preserved example of traditional Han Chinese city. Climbing up the city wall, one can overlook the whole city. Among them, the city tower at the South Gate (Yingxun Gate) is the most beautiful. Heritage location & inclusion time: Pingyao County, Shanxi Province; 1997 Best time to visit: Spring and autumn Time needed: 1-2 days Summer Palace Located in the western suburbs (郊区) of Beijing, the Summer Palace was first built in 1750. It was badly damaged during the 1860 war. In 1886, people rebuilt it on the old site. Its man-made scenes fit well with the natural hills and big lakes around. Heritage location & inclusion time: Haidian District, Beijing City; 1998 Best time to visit: Spring and autumn with the best climate Time needed: 4-6 hours 1. What is special about Lijiang Old Town? A. It is a symbol of Jiangnan. B. It was badly damaged before. C. It was built in the 14th century. D. It has Naxi-style buildings. 2. In which place can you see the Yingxun Gate? A. Lijiang City. B. Suzhou City. C. Pingyao County. D. Beijing City. 3. What do the four sites have in common? A. They are rebuilt lately. B. They share the same best visiting time. C. They fit well with the hilly land. D. They have many ethnic groups. 【答案】1. D 2. C 3. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了中国四处世界遗产：丽江古城、苏州园林、平遥古城和颐和园，涵盖了它们的特色、位置、列入时间及最佳游览时节。 【1题详解】 细节理解题。根据Old Town of Lijiang部分“It also has a special Naxi architectural style and traditional culture.(它还具有独特的纳西族建筑风格和传统文化)”可知，丽江古城有着纳西族风格的建筑。故选D。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。根据Ancient City of Pingyao部分“Among them, the city tower at the South Gate (Yingxun Gate) is the most beautiful.(其中，南门（迎薰门）的城楼是最为美丽的)”可知，你可以在平遥县看到迎薰门。故选C。 【3题详解】 细节理解题。根据对比四个景点的Best time to visit一栏，可以发现它们的最佳游览时间都是“Spring and autumn(春秋两季)”。由此可知，四个景点有着相同的最佳游览时间。故选B。 B Four days after Hurricane Ida made landfall, the New Orleans meteorologist (气象学家) Margaret Orr took a break after twelve hours on the air to reply to some of her fans on Twitter. Orr, who has been reporting the weather for forty-two years, is regarded by many residents as a prophet (预言家). Someone asked why the sun always shines before a storm. “It reminds us that the sun will shine again,” she replied. The real reason the sun shines before a storm? “Because you’ve often got high pressure right over you, and it’s hot,” she said. “The high moves off to the east and pushes the system our way.” Many of her workmates were sleeping at the station, but Orr preferred to go home, where she had running water but no electricity. She could bear not having an air-conditioner. The tip, she said, was to take a cold shower. Not having Internet, though, was a hardship. She said, “I couldn’t check my social media until I got to work, which was annoying.” In the days leading up to Ida, people contacted Orr through Twitter to get personal, practical advice. Orr tried to reply to every person. This hard work made all the residents respect (尊重) her a lot. Orr has always been interested in weather. In 1965, when she was twelve years old, the wind from Hurricane Betsy blew the roof off her family’s house in New Orleans. She remembers going outside and standing in the eye of the storm. “I looked up and saw the sky and saw the stars,” she said. “Bad weather happens everywhere,” she said, “Every now and then, on Twitter, you’ll see people saying, why do you live there? Well, I live here because it’s my home. This is where I grew up. This is the place I love.” She went on, “After Hurricane Katrina, I thought, could I live anywhere else? And I decided, no, I couldn’t.” She added, “As my daughter said about New Orleans when she was a little girl, ‘I even love the dirt.’” 4. Which words can best describe Orr’s explanation about sunshine before a storm? A. Encouraging and professional. B. Interesting but unclear. C. Scientific but wrong. D. Strange and boring. 5. Why did Orr think no Internet at home was a “hardship”? A. She could not call for help if needed. B. She failed to do her work from home. C. She had to wait until work to use social media. D. She missed watching news about the hurricane. 6. What childhood experience started Orr’s interest in weather? A. Watching weather reports on television. B. Seeing the stars in the eye of Hurricane Betsy. C. Reading magazines about hurricanes at home. D. Helping neighbours rebuild after Hurricane Betsy. 7. What can we draw from the last paragraph? A. Orr loves her hometown deeply. B. Bad weather makes people leave. C. Social media asks people to move. D. She planned to leave after Katrina. 【答案】4. A 5. C 6. B 7. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了新奥尔良气象学家Margaret Orr在飓风Ida期间的工作状态、对天气的专业解读，以及她对家乡的深厚情感。 【4题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段中““It reminds us that the sun will shine again,” she replied. The real reason the sun shines before a storm? “Because you’ve often got high pressure right over you, and it’s hot,” she said. “The high moves off to the east and pushes the system our way.”(“这提醒我们，阳光总会再次照耀。” 她答道。而暴风雨前阳光普照的真正原因？“因为此时高压气团往往正笼罩在你上空，天气会变得炎热，” 她说，“随后这股高压气团会向东移动，把降水天气系统推向我们这边。”)”可推知，Orr的解释既鼓舞人心又专业。故选A。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“Not having Internet, though, was a hardship. She said, ‘I couldn’t check my social media until I got to work, which was annoying.’(然而，没有网络对她来说是一大不便。她说：“我得等到上班后才能刷社交媒体，这太让人烦了。”)”可知，Orr认为家里没网络是困难的事，因为她到上班的地方才能查看自己的社交媒体。故选C。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“In 1965, when she was twelve years old, the wind from Hurricane Betsy blew the roof off her family’s house in New Orleans. She remembers going outside and standing in the eye of the storm. ‘I looked up and saw the sky and saw the stars,’ she said.(1965 年，她12岁那年，贝特西飓风的狂风掀翻了她家在新奥尔良的屋顶。她记得自己走到屋外，站在了风眼之中。“我抬头望去，看见了天空，也看见了满天繁星。” 她说)”可知，在飓风Betsy的风眼中看到星星的童年经历激发了Orr对天气的兴趣。故选B。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段中“‘Bad weather happens everywhere,’ she said, ‘Every now and then, on Twitter, you’ll see people saying, why do you live there? Well, I live here because it’s my home. This is where I grew up. This is the place I love.’(“糟糕的天气哪里都会有。” 她说，“偶尔在推特上，会看到有人问，你为什么要住在这儿？嗯，我住在这里，因为这是我的家。我在这里长大，这是我深爱的地方。”)”可推知，Orr因对家乡(新奥尔良)的深厚感情而选择留下，呼应了她和女儿的话。故选A。 C Lately I have started to go jogging in Yoyogi Park. One of the first things that caught my attention when I started was that everybody runs in a counterclockwise (逆时针方向的) direction in the city where there are no rules that say in which direction to run. Maybe they do it because they try to follow track & field athletics and almost any other kind of race where the running direction is always counterclockwise, or maybe is there any other reason? I have been asking many people and “researching” online. The best answers I found are from the research of a construction professor at Waseda University. Professor Watanabe Hitoshi spent many years researching the best way to design stairs and emergency exits. He reached a point in his research where he had to decide if it was better to design stairs that you have to go down clockwise or counterclockwise. Experiments had been carried out some time before, and it was known that there is a tendency (趋势) to turn counterclockwise. But Mr. Watanabe wanted to look into more so he further researched on it: ·Most human beings are right-handed. ·Most of the left-handed people are right-footed, while most of the right-handed people are also right-footed. ·Most human beings have a bit longer right leg than their left leg. These three factors make our right leg become stronger than the left leg, which causes a tendency to turn to the left, and to be able to run faster in a counterclockwise direction. Mr. Watanabe carried out a lot of experiments and observations to get some results. For example, he found out through an experiment that when people are being followed and trying to escape (逃跑), they turn to the left unconsciously 70% of the time. 8. What caught the author’s attention when he first started jogging in Yoyogi Park? A. Many track races are held there. B. Rules force people to run clockwise. C. Everyone runs counterclockwise there. D. Joggers prefer morning exercises there. 9 What was the purpose of Watanabe’s further research? A. To design better running tracks. B. To study about right-handed people. C. To find out the reasons behind the tendency. D. To show the importance of emergency exits. 10. What does Watanabe’s experiment show? A. Left-handed people run faster. B. Longer legs mean faster speed. C. People choose left turns when tired. D. Most people escape by turning left. 11. What does the text mainly talk about? A. The best way to design stairs. B. The science behind running direction. C. Tips on running faster in city parks. D. The benefits of running counterclockwise. 【答案】8. C 9. C 10. D 11. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了作者在代代木公园慢跑时发现人们都逆时针跑步，进而探讨这一现象背后的科学原因。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“One of the first things that caught my attention when I started was that everybody runs in a counterclockwise direction in the city where there are no rules that say in which direction to run. (当我开始慢跑时，首先引起我注意的是，在这个没有规定跑步方向的城市里，每个人都逆时针跑步。)”可知，作者刚开始在代代木公园慢跑时，引起他注意的是那里每个人都逆时针跑步。故选C。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“Experiments had been carried out some time before, and it was known that there is a tendency to turn counterclockwise. But Mr. Watanabe wanted to look into more so he further researched on it. (此前相关实验已开展过一段时间，且研究人员发现物体存在逆时针转动的倾向。但渡边先生希望对此展开更深入的探究，于是他针对这一问题进行了进一步研究。)”可知，此前已有实验发现人们有逆时针转向的趋势，而渡边教授的进一步研究目的是深挖这一趋势背后的原因。故选C。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“For example, he found out through an experiment that when people are being followed and trying to escape, they turn to the left unconsciously 70% of the time. (例如，他通过实验发现，当人们被跟踪并试图逃跑时，70%的情况下他们会无意识地左转。)”可知，渡边教授的实验结论明确：当人们被追赶并试图逃跑时，70% 的人会无意识地向左转，即大多数人逃跑时会选择左转。故选D。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。文章主要讲述了作者在代代木公园慢跑时发现人们都逆时针跑步，进而探讨了这一现象背后的科学原因，如大多数人是右撇子、右腿比左腿长等，这些因素导致人们倾向于左转，从而在逆时针方向上跑得更快。由此可知，这篇文章主要讲了跑步方向背后的科学。故选B。 D Screens are increasingly taking over more and more of our life, leading some researchers to worry about the effect of long-term use on older adults’ brain. It has been suggested that this might lead to so-called digital dementia — that depending on digital technology throughout our life might harm our cognitive function (认知功能) in our later years. But new research shows this worry doesn’t appear to be true, at least for the generation of adults who first usually used smartphones, computers and the Internet — and who are now reaching the age when cognitive impairment (障碍) often starts to appear. In a paper published on Monday in Nature Human Behaviour, Scullin and his co-author Jared Benge, a neuropsychologist at the University of Texas at Austin, examined 57 studies of digital technology use and cognitive function in more than 400,000 older adults across the world. They found that people in the “digital pioneer” generation who made more use of digital technology did not have higher rates of cognitive impairment. In fact, technology use was related to lower rates of cognitive decline. Yet the nature of the relationship between these factors remains unclear. “I was not especially surprised by the results,” says neuroscientist Sam Gilbert of University College London, who was not part of the study. “This study provides a challenge to the widespread fears about ‘digital dementia’ and highlights the possibility of technology as a tool for cognitive improvement,” says Chiara Scarampi, a neuroscientist at the University of Geneva, who also was not part of the study. “‘Digital dementia’ has always felt like a catchy but overstated idea to me,” she adds. “Cognitive offloading — using tools like reminders or GPS — is not harmful. In fact, it can free up cognitive resources for more other tasks.” 12. What can we infer about digital dementia? A. It can be treated easily. B. It will do harm to our brain. C. It is common among the elderly. D. It is related to technology overuse. 13. What does the underlined word “decline” in Paragraph 3 mean? A. Drop. B. Ability. C. Break. D. Increase. 14. What is Chiara Scarampi’s attitude towards the results of the study? A. Doubtful. B. Favourable. C. Unclear. D. Curious. 15. In which part of a newspaper can you find the text? A. Sports. B. People. C. Science. D. Environment. 【答案】12. D 13. A 14. B 15. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。随着科技发展，人们使用数码产品的时间越来越长，很多研究人员担心这会导致数码痴呆症，损伤我们晚年的认知功能，然而最新研究表明，这个担心可能是多余的。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“It has been suggested that this might lead to so-called digital dementia — that depending on digital technology throughout our life might harm our cognitive function (认知功能) in our later years.(有人认为，这可能会导致所谓的数字痴呆症——一生依赖数字技术可能会在晚年损害我们的认知功能)”可知，数字痴呆症被认为与过度使用数字技术相关。故选D。 【13题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第三段中“They found that people in the ‘digital pioneer’ generation who made more use of digital technology did not have higher rates of cognitive impairment. In fact, technology use was related to lower rates of cognitive decline.(他们发现，更多使用数字技术的‘数字先驱’一代，其认知障碍的发生率并没有更高。事实上，使用技术与较低的认知……率相关)”可知，前文指出认知障碍发生率未升高，结合“in fact”的转折递进，可推知“decline”与“impairment”表意相近，意为“下降、衰退”，与“drop”含义一致。故选A。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段中“This study provides a challenge to the widespread fears about ‘digital dementia’ and highlights the possibility of technology as a tool for cognitive improvement(这项研究对人们普遍存在的对‘数字痴呆症’的担忧提出了质疑，并强调了技术作为认知改善工具的可能性)”和第五段中“‘Digital dementia’ has always felt like a catchy but overstated idea to me(在我看来，‘数字痴呆症’一直是一个吸引人但言过其实的说法)”可推知，Chiara Scarampi认可该研究结果，对其持支持态度。故选B。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中“In a paper published on Monday in Nature Human Behaviour, Scullin and his co-author Jared Benge, a neuropsychologist at the University of Texas at Austin, examined 57 studies of digital technology use and cognitive function in more than 400,000 older adults across the world.(本周一，斯卡林和他的合著者、德克萨斯大学奥斯汀分校的神经心理学家贾里德·本奇在《自然·人类行为》上发表了一篇论文，研究了全球40多万老年人使用数字技术与认知功能的57项研究)”以及第四段中“says neuroscientist Sam Gilbert of University College London, who was not part of the study(伦敦大学学院的神经科学家山姆·吉尔伯特说，他并未参与这项研究)”可知，文章围绕专业的科学研究展开，还引用了神经科学家的专业观点，这类内容属于科学范畴。由此推知，本文可能在报纸的科学版块找到。故选C。 第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 While it’s wonderful to share a special trip and new experience with friends or family, there’s an attractive case for travel alone from time to time. Solo (独自的) travel can work for anyone. ____16____ You needn’t discuss with others. It can be challenging to talk over a trip and time away from work with another busy person in your life, and it’s even more difficult when you try to make plans with a group. ____17____ However, if you can’t find a travel partner on short notice, it may be the perfect time to pack your bags and go away. ____18____ If you seldom spend important time alone, you may be surprised at how enjoyable it can be. Just accompany (陪伴) yourself. Depending on the destination, a solo trip can be a powerful and life-changing experience. Imagine sitting on a peaceful beach at sunset or taking an inviting morning hike alone. You can enjoy such a hike without making conversation with anyone. You can meet new people. If you are a born open person, travelling alone can be a wonderful way to meet locals and make new friends. ____19____ You could be chatting with some interesting people at a sidewalk cafe. You could even join a group of like-minded people for yoga on the beach. The key is to keep an open mind while keeping safety in mind, especially in a foreign land. You could enjoy great service. For some reason, service at hotels and restaurants seems better when you’re travelling alone. ____20____ A. Do everything you want. B. You’re your own great partner. C Here are good reasons why you should try it. D. Often, people who are alone seem easier to talk to. E. If things don’t go well, the whole trip can be terrible. F. People often admire those who travel by themselves. G. Usually, these problems can be solved by planning far ahead. 【答案】16. C 17. G 18. B 19. D 20. F 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了进行独自旅行的理由和好处。 【16题详解】 上文“Solo (独自的) travel can work for anyone.(独自旅行适合每一个人。)”提出核心观点 独自旅行适合所有人，下文用四个分点阐述独自旅行的好处，此空为总起句，起到引出下文具体理由的作用。C选项“Here are good reasons why you should try it.(以下是你应该尝试它的充分理由。)” 完美衔接上下文，符合总起段的逻辑。故选C。 【17题详解】 上文“It can be challenging to talk over a trip and time away from work with another busy person in your life, and it’s even more difficult when you try to make plans with a group.(和生活中另一个忙碌的人商量旅行事宜、请假出行本就颇具挑战，而当你试图和一群人制定计划时，难度会更大。)”提到和一群人制定旅行计划难度大，下文“However, if you can’t find a travel partner on short notice, it may be the perfect time to pack your bags and go away.(但如果你临时找不到旅伴，那或许就是收拾行囊独自出发的最佳时机。)”用However转折，指出临时找不到旅伴就可以独自出发。此空需承接上文的计划难问题，并为下文的转折做铺垫。G选项 “Usually, these problems can be solved by planning far ahead.(通常，这些问题都可以通过提前很久规划来解决。)”中的“these problems”指代上文的 “商量行程、制定计划难”，且“提前规划”与下文“short notice（临时）”形成对比，逻辑连贯。故选G。 【18题详解】 空处为段落小标题。根据本段内容尤其是“Just accompany yourself.(只需陪伴自己。)”可知，本段讲的是自己陪伴自己就好。B 选项 “You’re your own great partner.(你自己就是绝佳的旅伴。)”精准概括本段主旨。故选B。 【19题详解】 段落小标题为“You can meet new people.(你能结识新朋友。)”，上文“If you are a born open person, travelling alone can be a wonderful way to meet locals and make new friends.( 如果你天生性格开朗，独自旅行会是结识当地人、结交新朋友的绝佳方式。)”提到性格开朗的人独自旅行能结识当地人和新朋友，下文“You could be chatting with some interesting people at a sidewalk cafe. You could even join a group of like-minded people for yoga on the beach.( 你可以在街边的咖啡馆和一些有趣的人闲聊，甚至还能加入一群志同道合的人，在海滩上一起做瑜伽。)”举例在咖啡馆闲聊、和志同道合的人一起做瑜伽，此空需解释独自旅行为何容易结识人。D选项“Often, people who are alone seem easier to talk to.(通常，独自出行的人似乎更容易交谈。)”直接衔接分论点，为下文的结识新朋友提供原因，逻辑通顺。故选D。 【20题详解】 段落小标题是“You could enjoy great service.(你能享受优质的服务。)”，上文“For some reason, service at hotels and restaurants seems better when you’re travelling alone.( 不知为何，当你独自旅行时，酒店和餐厅的服务似乎会更好。)”指出独自旅行时，酒店和餐厅的服务似乎更好，此空需解释为何独自旅行能享受更好服务。F选项“People often admire those who travel by themselves.(人们常常羡慕那些独自旅行的人。)”合理说明服务更好的原因 ——因他人的羡慕，服务人员会更用心提供服务，贴合上下文逻辑。故选F。 第三部分 语言运用(共两节，满分30分) 第一节(共15小题;每小题1分，满分15分) 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 I have a strong interest in English and did well in exams.

A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了作者在美国参加暑期学校时，因牙痛去看牙医，却因误解英语习语“have a sweet tooth”而闹出笑话，这次经历让他意识到语言学习的真谛在于感受其丰富性并运用于真实生活，而非仅仅应付考试。 【21题详解】 考查形容词词义辨析。句意：所以我很兴奋能去美国上暑期学校，渴望把课本知识运用到真实生活中。A. concerned担心的；B. calm平静的；C. excited兴奋的；D. negative消极的。根据前文“I have a strong interest in English”以及后文“eager (渴望的) to apply textbook knowledge ”可知，作者对这次机会充满期待和热情，因此心情是“兴奋的”。故选C项。 【22题详解】 考查形容词词义辨析。句意同上。A. real真实的；B. unfamiliar不熟悉的；C. impressive印象深刻的；D. unusual不寻常的。根据前文可知，作者是去美国暑期学校，目的是将“textbook knowledge”应用到美国本土的日常场景中，即“真实的”生活。故选A项。 【23题详解】 考查名词词义辨析。句意：两周后，我因为牙痛不得不去看牙医。A. captain船长；B. dentist牙医；C. artist艺术家；D. teacher老师。根据后文“toothache”以及“the dentist’s instructions”可知，作者因为牙痛去看“牙医”。故选B项。 【24题详解】 考查动词词义辨析。句意：等待时，我很担心。“我该怎么用英语描述我的疼痛？我能听懂牙医的指示吗？”A. explore探索；B. fix固定，修理；C. remember记住；D. describe描述。结合常识和后文“my pain in English?”可知，他在医疗沟通中需要向医生清晰“描述”自己的症状。故选D项。 【25题详解】 考查动词词义辨析。句意：不久之后，我被叫进去见史密斯医生。A. called叫；B. admired钦佩；C. moved移动；D. improved改进。根据前文“When waiting”以及诊所的常规流程，通常护士会“叫”病人的名字请他进入诊室。后文“in to see Dr. Smith”也说明了“被叫进去”的目的。故选A项。 【26题详解】 考查名词词义辨析。句意：检查后，史密斯医生解释说有一颗牙上有个洞需要补。A. ear耳朵；B. nose鼻子；C. mouth嘴巴；D. tooth牙齿。根据前文“I had to see a(n) for a toothache”，“there was a hole”和后文“needed to be filled”可知，问题是出在一颗“牙齿”上。故选D项。 【27题详解】 考查名词词义辨析。句意：然后他微笑着问了一个问题。A. secret秘密；B. nod点头；C. question问题；D. shock震惊。根据后文“Do you have a sweet tooth?”，这是一个直接的询问，所以史密斯医生是带着微笑提出了一个“问题”。故选C项。 【28题详解】 考查动词词义辨析。句意：史密斯医生一边笑着一边开始了填补工作。A. digging挖掘；B. filling填补；C. contacting联系；D. reminding提醒。根据前文“there was a hole in a(n) that needed to be filled”可知，牙医接下来要进行的是“填补”牙齿的治疗。故选B项。 【29题详解】 考查副词词义辨析。句意：史密斯医生解释说：“我的孩子，‘have a sweet tooth’和刷牙完全没关系。”A. finally最终；B. luckily幸运地；C. easily容易地；D. completely完全地。作者误解了“have a sweet tooth”的意思，以为和刷牙有关。牙医在解释时强调这个习语“完全”与刷牙无关，以澄清误解。故选D项。 【30题详解】 考查形容词词义辨析。句意：它意思是非常喜欢甜食。A. smelly有臭味的；B. hot辣的；C. sugary含糖的，甜的；D. salty咸的。英语习语“have a sweet tooth”特指“爱吃甜食”。根据常识和该习语的定义，这里指的是“含糖的”或“甜的”食物。故选C项。 【31题详解】 考查形容词词义辨析。句意：我感到尴尬但又很感激，因为史密斯医生不仅帮我解决了疼痛，还帮助我学习英语。A. thankful感激的；B. helpful有帮助的；C. careful小心的；D. harmful有害的。根据后文“because Dr. Smith not only helped me with my pain but also English learning”可知，医生既治疗了他的牙，又教了他一个有用的习语，所以作者虽然尴尬，但内心是“感激的”。故选A项。 【32题详解】 考查动词词义辨析。句意：回家后，我改变了学习英语的方式。A. measured测量；B. finished完成；C. changed改变；D. forgot忘记。根据后文“Instead of only focusing on tests, I began to feel the richness of the language.”可知，作者在经历此事后，学习方法和侧重点发生了“改变”。故选C项。 【33题详解】 考查动词短语辨析。句意：我开始与母语者交谈，听他们使用让语言鲜活起来的习语和表达。A. looked after照顾；B. talked to与……交谈；C. referred to参考；D. turned down拒绝。根据前文“Instead of only focusing on tests, I began to feel the richness of the language.”和后文“native speakers”可知，作者要去感受到语言的丰富性，要实现这一目标，最直接有效的方式就是和英语母语者“交谈”。故选B项。 34题详解】 考查名词词义辨析。句意：我开始与母语者交谈，听他们使用让语言鲜活起来的习语和表达。A. emotion情感；B. game游戏；C. project项目；D. language语言。前文讲述作者在诊所经历了因误解英语习语而引发的思考，结合“feel the richness of the language”和“using idioms (习语) and expressions”可推知，作者想要感受到语言的丰富性，要让习语和表达让“语言”本身变得生动、鲜活。故选D项。 【35题详解】 考查动词词义辨析。句意：通过这段经历，我意识到，无论是嗜好糖果还是语言，“有甜牙”(即热爱某物)就是让其丰富你的生活。A. realized意识到；B. observed观察；C. explained解释；D. disagreed不同意。这是作者对整段暑期学校经历，特别是看牙医学习到习语这件事的深刻总结和感悟。后文“that having a sweet tooth — whether for candy or language — was about allowing it to enrich your life”是他从中“领悟到”的道理。故选A项。 第二节(共10小题;每小题1.5分，满分15分) 阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。 From Oct.13 to 19, the 7th Yunnan Overseas Students Cultural Exchange Week ____36____ (hold) in Zhaotong and Kunming, Southwest China’s Yunnan province.

The classroom was full of loud chatter, with students laughing and talking to each other, but I kept my eyes fixed on the ground, not daring to look up. My family had just moved to the city after my dad lost his job, and I didn’t know a single person here. The strange environment made my hands feel sweaty, and I tightly held my schoolbag strap (带子), hoping no one would notice me. As students hurried to find seats, only one was still empty — right beside a boy named Leo. He, too, was new to the class. He took a quick look at me, then turned his eyes away at once. I walked over quietly and sat down, hoping not to draw any attention. Over the next few weeks, I noticed Leo never joined any group conversations. He always ate lunch alone, seldom spoke in class, and wore the same washed-out blue jacket every day. Some classmates whispered (私下说) about him — they said he’d always had trouble keeping up in school. A few unkind students even said that he wasn’t quick in mind and was hard to get along with. Then one afternoon, our teacher announced we would work on a science project — with a partner. Everyone quickly teamed up until I was the only one still without a partner. Just as I began to worry, Leo raised his hand slowly and asked softly, “Would you like to work together?” I nodded and said yes. 注意： 1．续写词数应为150个左右； 2．请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 To my surprise, Leo knew so much about plants, animals, and nature. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ On the day of the presentation, our project received the highest score. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】One possible version: To my surprise, Leo knew so much about plants, animals, and nature. He told me he had spent several summers volunteering at a local nature centre. During our work, he explained difficult ideas in a clear and easy way, drew detailed pictures to help me understand, and even stayed after school to help me make our model. I finally realized that his quietness was not a sign of weakness — it was because he was paying full attention to things he cared about. Those rumors about him turned out to be totally untrue. On the day of the presentation, our project received the highest score. After class, Leo gave me a small, real smile. “Thank you,” he said, “for not believing what others said about me.” “Thank you,” I replied, “for choosing me as your partner.” We walked out of the classroom side by side. From that day on, I understood that silence does not mean emptiness, and a simple, faded jacket does not mean there is nothing valuable inside. Sometimes, what is quiet and plain holds the most beautiful stories. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了高中新生因转学感到孤独，与新同学Leo成为科学项目搭档，发现他丰富的自然知识，最终合作成功并打破偏见的故事。 【详解】1. 段落续写： ①由第一段首句“令我惊讶的是，Leo对植物、动物和自然了解得如此之多。”可知，第一段可描写Leo在项目合作中展现出的丰富知识和细心指导，使“我”改变了对他的看法，认识到他的专注与内在价值。 ②由第二段首句“项目展示当天，我们的项目获得了最高分。”可知，第二段可描写合作成功后Leo与“我”的真诚交流，以及“我”从中领悟到的深刻道理——沉默与朴素的外表下可能蕴藏着丰富的内涵。 2. 续写线索：展现知识——耐心指导——改变看法——获得成功——真诚致谢——深刻感悟 3. 词汇激活： 行为类 ①解释：explain/clarify/illuminate ②绘画：draw/sketch/illustrate ③选择：choose/select/pick 情绪类 ①注意：pay full attention to/give one’s undivided attention to ②在意：care about/be concerned about 【点睛】[高分句型1] I finally realized that his quietness was not a sign of weakness — it was because he was paying full attention to things he cared about.

Below are four of them: Old Town of Lijiang Lijiang Old Town fits perfectly with the hilly land of this important business and strategic place. It has kept a high-quality, true historic town look. First built in the late 13th century AD, the town is a mix of cultures from many ethnic groups (少数民族). It also has a special Naxi architectural style and traditional culture. Heritage location & inclusion time (列入时间): Lijiang City, Yunnan Province; 1997 Best time to visit: Spring and autumn, avoiding rainy season in summer Time needed: Half to one day Classical Gardens of Suzhou Suzhou gardens are the most typical symbol of Jiangnan. The design of classical Chinese gardens tries to copy natural views in a small space — and this idea is best shown in Suzhou’s beautiful gardens. These private gardens were built from the 11th to the 19th century. Heritage location & inclusion time: Suzhou City, Jiangsu Province; 1997 Best time to visit: Spring and autumn with pleasant climate and lots of plants Time needed: 2-3 hours for one garden,5 hours to 2 days for several gardens Ancient City of Pingyao Founded in the 14th century, Pingyao Ancient City — a China’s cultural heritage — is a very well-preserved example of traditional Han Chinese city. Climbing up the city wall, one can overlook the whole city. Among them, the city tower at the South Gate (Yingxun Gate) is the most beautiful. Heritage location & inclusion time: Pingyao County, Shanxi Province; 1997 Best time to visit: Spring and autumn Time needed: 1-2 days Summer Palace Located in the western suburbs (郊区) of Beijing, the Summer Palace was first built in 1750.

B Four days after Hurricane Ida made landfall, the New Orleans meteorologist (气象学家) Margaret Orr took a break after twelve hours on the air to reply to some of her fans on Twitter. Orr, who has been reporting the weather for forty-two years, is regarded by many residents as a prophet (预言家). Someone asked why the sun always shines before a storm. “It reminds us that the sun will shine again,” she replied. The real reason the sun shines before a storm? “Because you’ve often got high pressure right over you, and it’s hot,” she said. “The high moves off to the east and pushes the system our way.” Many of her workmates were sleeping at the station, but Orr preferred to go home, where she had running water but no electricity. She could bear not having an air-conditioner. The tip, she said, was to take a cold shower. Not having Internet, though, was a hardship. She said, “I couldn’t check my social media until I got to work, which was annoying.” In the days leading up to Ida, people contacted Orr through Twitter to get personal, practical advice. Orr tried to reply to every person. This hard work made all the residents respect (尊重) her a lot. Orr has always been interested in weather. In 1965, when she was twelve years old, the wind from Hurricane Betsy blew the roof off her family’s house in New Orleans. She remembers going outside and standing in the eye of the storm. “I looked up and saw the sky and saw the stars,” she said. “Bad weather happens everywhere,” she said, “Every now and then, on Twitter, you’ll see people saying, why do you live there? Well, I live here because it’s my home. This is where I grew up. This is the place I love.” She went on, “After Hurricane Katrina, I thought, could I live anywhere else? And I decided, no, I couldn’t.” She added, “As my daughter said about New Orleans when she was a little girl, ‘I even love the dirt.’” 4. Which words can best describe Orr’s explanation about sunshine before a storm? A. Encouraging and professional. B. Interesting but unclear. C. Scientific but wrong. D. Strange and boring. 5. Why did Orr think no Internet at home was a “hardship”? A. She could not call for help if needed. B. She failed to do her work from home. C. She had to wait until work to use social media. D She missed watching news about the hurricane. 6. What childhood experience started Orr’s interest in weather? A. Watching weather reports on television. B. Seeing the stars in the eye of Hurricane Betsy. C. Reading magazines about hurricanes at home. D. Helping neighbours rebuild after Hurricane Betsy. 7 What can we draw from the last paragraph? A. Orr loves her hometown deeply. B. Bad weather makes people leave. C. Social media asks people to move. D. She planned to leave after Katrina. C Lately I have started to go jogging in Yoyogi Park. One of the first things that caught my attention when I started was that everybody runs in a counterclockwise (逆时针方向的) direction in the city where there are no rules that say in which direction to run. Maybe they do it because they try to follow track & field athletics and almost any other kind of race where the running direction is always counterclockwise, or maybe is there any other reason? I have been asking many people and “researching” online. The best answers I found are from the research of a construction professor at Waseda University. Professor Watanabe Hitoshi spent many years researching the best way to design stairs and emergency exits. He reached a point in his research where he had to decide if it was better to design stairs that you have to go down clockwise or counterclockwise. Experiments had been carried out some time before, and it was known that there is a tendency (趋势) to turn counterclockwise. But Mr. Watanabe wanted to look into more so he further researched on it: ·Most human beings are right-handed. ·Most of the left-handed people are right-footed, while most of the right-handed people are also right-footed. ·Most human beings have a bit longer right leg than their left leg. These three factors make our right leg become stronger than the left leg, which causes a tendency to turn to the left, and to be able to run faster in a counterclockwise direction. Mr. Watanabe carried out a lot of experiments and observations to get some results. For example, he found out through an experiment that when people are being followed and trying to escape (逃跑), they turn to the left unconsciously 70% of the time. 8. What caught the author’s attention when he first started jogging in Yoyogi Park? A. Many track races are held there. B. Rules force people to run clockwise. C. Everyone runs counterclockwise there. D. Joggers prefer morning exercises there. 9. What was the purpose of Watanabe’s further research? A. To design better running tracks. B. To study about right-handed people. C To find out the reasons behind the tendency. D. To show the importance of emergency exits. 10. What does Watanabe’s experiment show? A. Left-handed people run faster. B. Longer legs mean faster speed. C. People choose left turns when tired. D. Most people escape by turning left. 11. What does the text mainly talk about? A. The best way to design stairs. B. The science behind running direction. C. Tips on running faster in city parks. D. The benefits of running counterclockwise. D Screens are increasingly taking over more and more of our life, leading some researchers to worry about the effect of long-term use on older adults’ brain. It has been suggested that this might lead to so-called digital dementia — that depending on digital technology throughout our life might harm our cognitive function (认知功能) in our later years. But new research shows this worry doesn’t appear to be true, at least for the generation of adults who first usually used smartphones, computers and the Internet — and who are now reaching the age when cognitive impairment (障碍) often starts to appear. In a paper published on Monday in Nature Human Behaviour, Scullin and his co-author Jared Benge, a neuropsychologist at the University of Texas at Austin, examined 57 studies of digital technology use and cognitive function in more than 400,000 older adults across the world. They found that people in the “digital pioneer” generation who made more use of digital technology did not have higher rates of cognitive impairment. In fact, technology use was related to lower rates of cognitive decline. Yet the nature of the relationship between these factors remains unclear. “I was not especially surprised by the results,” says neuroscientist Sam Gilbert of University College London, who was not part of the study. “This study provides a challenge to the widespread fears about ‘digital dementia’ and highlights the possibility of technology as a tool for cognitive improvement,” says Chiara Scarampi, a neuroscientist at the University of Geneva, who also was not part of the study. “‘Digital dementia’ has always felt like a catchy but overstated idea to me,” she adds. “Cognitive offloading — using tools like reminders or GPS — is not harmful. In fact, it can free up cognitive resources for more other tasks.” 12. What can we infer about digital dementia? A. It can be treated easily. B. It will do harm to our brain. C. It is common among the elderly. D. It is related to technology overuse. 13. What does the underlined word “decline” in Paragraph 3 mean? A. Drop. B. Ability. C. Break. D. Increase. 14. What is Chiara Scarampi’s attitude towards the results of the study? A. Doubtful. B. Favourable. C. Unclear. D. Curious. 15. In which part of a newspaper can you find the text? A. Sports. B. People.

The classroom was full of loud chatter, with students laughing and talking to each other, but I kept my eyes fixed on the ground, not daring to look up. My family had just moved to the city after my dad lost his job, and I didn’t know a single person here. The strange environment made my hands feel sweaty, and I tightly held my schoolbag strap (带子), hoping no one would notice me. As students hurried to find seats, only one was still empty — right beside a boy named Leo. He, too, was new to the class. He took a quick look at me, then turned his eyes away at once. I walked over quietly and sat down, hoping not to draw any attention. Over the next few weeks, I noticed Leo never joined any group conversations. He always ate lunch alone, seldom spoke in class, and wore the same washed-out blue jacket every day. Some classmates whispered (私下说) about him — they said he’d always had trouble keeping up in school. A few unkind students even said that he wasn’t quick in mind and was hard to get along with. Then one afternoon, our teacher announced we would work on a science project — with a partner. Everyone quickly teamed up until I was the only one still without a partner. Just as I began to worry, Leo raised his hand slowly and asked softly, “Would you like to work together?” I nodded and said yes. 注意： 1．续写词数应为150个左右； 2．请按如下格式在答题卡相应位置作答。 To my surprise, Leo knew so much about plants, animals, and nature. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ On the day of the presentation, our project received the highest score. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
