Smiles 【答案】B 【解析】 【详解】句意：生活就像一面镜子。对它微笑，它也会对你微笑。 考查祈使句。Smiling动名词或现在分词；Smile动词原形；To smile动词不定式；Smiles第三人称单数形式。根据“...at it, and it will smile back.”可知，句子是“祈使句+ and + 简单句”的结构，祈使句以动词原形开头。故选B。 5.

Catherine told Patrick, “You sing so beautifully, and it will be fun!” But Patrick looked worried. “Mom,” he said, “sometimes I feel afraid when I have to do something important.” We smiled and said, “We grown-ups (成年人) feel the same way too, but you can decide it by yourself.” After thinking for a minute, Patrick nodded. “Okay, I’ll do it!” Patrick loved music from an early age, but singing alone in front of hundreds of people at age five seemed impossible! When that moment arrived, Catherine, our daughter Melanie and I sat in darkness as a spotlight (聚光灯) found my son, standing alone at the microphone. He was dressed in white, with a pair of angel wings. Slowly but confidently, Patrick did perfectly. As his voice washed over the people, he seemed a true angel. Patrick’s beautiful voice brought heavy tears to my eyes. His song was soon over, and at my side, Catherine brushed away tears and Melanie sobbed, too. Outside, I got congratulations (祝贺) from our community members. I found my son who looked at me curiously. “You’re crying? Why, Dad?” “I have to cry, for nothing else but your singing.” Patrick smiled proudly and flew into my arms. “I don’t understand,” he said into my shoulder. “But maybe you do have your reason to cry.” 34.

Friendships enrich our lives. 【答案】34. C 35. D 36. D 37. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，讲述了在感恩节，社区计划了一场特别的演出，作者五岁的儿子Patrick被邀请进行独唱。起初Patrick很担心，但在父母的鼓励下，他决定接受挑战。演出时，Patrick自信地完美演唱，让家人和社区成员深受感动。 【34题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段“But Patrick looked worried. ‘Mom,’ he said, ‘sometimes I feel afraid when I have to do something important.’”可知，当Patrick知道自己要进行独唱表演时，他感到担心。故选C。 【35题详解】 词句猜测题。根据文章第三段“We grown-ups (成年人) feel the same way too, but you can decide it by yourself.”以及前文提到的Patrick对于独唱表演的担心，这里的“it”指代的是“Patrick是否愿意在感恩节进行独唱表演”。故选D。 【36题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章内容，故事的正确顺序是：首先，Patrick的父母在表演前鼓励他（⑤）；然后，Patrick说他很害怕但还是决定唱歌（④）；接着，Patrick打扮成天使并完美演唱（②）；之后，家人被感动并哭泣（③）；最后，Patrick微笑着扑进爸爸的怀里（①）。因此，正确的顺序是⑤④②③①。故选D。 【37题详解】 主旨大意题。文章讲述了Patrick在面对看似不可能的挑战时，通过自己的努力和勇气，最终成功完成了独唱表演，让家人和社区成员深受感动。这体现了“Nothing is impossible.”（没有什么是不可能的）的主题。故选B。 C ①The new TV play Meet Yourselves has won over many people’s hearts. It not only makes the local tourism better in Yunnan Province, but also shows some cultures in Dali. Let’s take a look at a few. ②Jianchuan wood carving, from Jianchuan of Dali, has a history of more than 1,000 years. The carvings usually include pictures like flowers, plants and so on. They are widely used in buildings, furniture and art. The TV show also points out that the traditional craft of wood carving faces challenges (挑战). The show talks about how machines are taking the place of handwork. The machines can save more time and cost less, so the work becomes more efficient and less costly. ③There are not only crafts shown in the TV play, but also some local food. Dairy Fan, or rushan, is a kind of food made of milk and yogurt, shaped like a fan. As local nice food, it’s a must-try food for visitors to Yunnan. ④The three tea courses are a tea serving tradition of the Bai ethnic group. It is an important tradition during special events such as weddings and festivals. First, boil water and warm the teapot on a gentle fire. After the pot gets hot, put the tea leaves inside. The first course of tea usually smells delicious but tastes bitter. The second course will have sugar in it, which makes it sweet. Finally, the third course will include honey, creating a richer taste. ⑤With the development of our country, Chinese culture has spread widely. I believe more and more people will get interested in Chinese culture. 38. What does the underlined word “efficient” in Paragraph 2 mean? A. 简单的 B. 高效的 C. 放松的 D. 繁重的 39. What can we infer (推断) from the passage? A. Visitors seldom leave Yunnan without eating rushan. B. The machine can’t take the place of the traditional wood carving. C. People add some honey to get rid of the bitter as the second step. D. The TV play has many bad effects on Yunnan Province. 40. Which is the right structure of the passage?(①=Paragraph 1 ②=Paragraph2...) A B. C. D. 41. Which can be the best title for this passage? A. The history of the wood carving B. The Bai ethic group in China C. Traditional cultures in Dali D. A new TV play from Yunnan 【答案】38. B 39. A 40. C 41. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是说明文。主要介绍《去有风的地方》这部剧展现的大理木雕、乳扇、三道茶等传统文化，展现当地魅力。 【38题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第二段“The machines can save more time and cost less, so the work becomes more efficient and less costly.”可知，这些机器能够节省更多时间并且成本更低，因此工作变得更加efficient且成本更低了。efficient与前文的“节省更多时间”对应，结合所给选项，在此处意为“高效的”。故选B。 【39题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“As local nice food, it’s a must-try food for visitors to Yunnan.”可知，乳扇是来云南的游客必尝的食物，所以游客很少不吃乳扇就离开云南。故选A。 【40题详解】 篇章结构题。第①段是总起段，介绍《去有风的地方》这部剧让云南旅游业变好，还展示了大理的文化；第②③④段分别介绍木雕、乳扇、三道茶这三个文化元素；第⑤段是总结段，说明中国文化传播广泛，会有更多人对中国文化感兴趣。 所以结构是总—分—总。故选C。 【41题详解】 最佳标题题。根据第一段“...but also shows some cultures in Dali. Let’s take a look at a few.”和下文分段介绍大理的木雕、乳扇、三道茶传统文化可知，本文主要在讲大理的传统文化。故选C。 D Blind boxes have become very popular toys in China. The idea is simple: the buyers will not know which toy it is until they open the boxes, so it’s a bit like gambling (赌博). You may feel happy if you get the things you want, but more often, you can’t get what you like. People spend lots of money on their luck. Pop Mart is a famous company (公司). But it began as a small shop in Beijing’s Zhongguancun area. At first, it sold different kinds of products. Later, the company found that toys were the most popular and best-selling products. They thought selling toys might be the best way. The idea for blind boxes was from Gashapon (扭蛋机) in Japan, which sells blind toys. Each toy inside Pop Mart’s blind boxes costs only about 2 dollars, but they sell for around 8 dollars each. This brings the company a lot of money. Pop Mart had around 6.3 billion yuan in revenue (收入) in the year of 2023, 1.7 billion yuan more than that in 2022. Nowadays, young people really like this kind of toy. Some buyers have collected over 1,000 dolls. In their eyes, the dolls are symbols of their personalities, or they just want to share something cute. Some toys are hard to get, so people sell them at higher prices in the second-hand markets. Some countries make rules to manage the selling of blind boxes, and they work out well. These rules help to stop over-marketing and protect buyers, especially kids, from buying things without thinking and being cheated.

D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了在中国非常流行的盲盒玩具，包括其起源、市场情况、消费者心理以及相关管理规定，同时探讨了泡泡玛特公司的发展现状和未来展望。 【42题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第一段“The idea is simple: the buyers will not know which toy it is until they open the boxes, so it’s a bit like gambling (赌博). You may feel happy if you get the things you want, but more often, you can’t get what you like. People spend lots of money on their luck.”可知，盲盒之所以在中国如此受欢迎，是因为买家享受不知道里面是什么的感觉。故选D。 【43题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第三段“Pop Mart had around 6.3 billion yuan in revenue (收入) in the year of 2023, 1.7 billion yuan more than that in 2022.”可知，泡泡玛特2023年的收入约为63亿元，比2022年多17亿元，因此2022年的收入为46亿元，呈现出上升趋势。故选A。 【44题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第五段“Some toys are hard to get, so people sell them at higher prices in the second-hand markets. Some countries make rules to manage the selling of blind boxes, and they work out well. These rules help to stop over-marketing and protect buyers, especially kids, from buying things without thinking and being cheated.”可知，有些玩具很难得到，所以人们在二手市场上以更高的价格出售它们，一些国家制定规则来管理盲盒的销售，并且效果很好，这些规则有助于阻止过度营销，保护买家，尤其是儿童，不让他们不加思考地购买东西和被骗。由此可知，此处是在说盲盒存在的问题，B选项“然而，盲盒像赌博一样难以制止”符合语境。故选B。 【45题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“To keep growing, Pop Mart needs to keep making something new and sell more toys.”可知，为了保持增长，泡泡玛特需要不断创造新东西并销售更多玩具，由此可推断，泡泡玛特需要创造更多新东西来促进其发展。故选D。 第Ⅱ卷(非选择题60分) 五、词汇运用(共10小题;每小题1分，计10分) 根据句子意思，用括号中所给汉语提示或英语单词的适当形式填空。(每空一词) 46.

Andrew enjoyed every peaceful moment there and deeply understood the close connection between all living things. Suddenly, a new plan broke everything!—Many houses would be built in the open land. The plan meant cutting down a large number of trees, removing all plants, and covering the land with hard ground. Andrew felt sad and worried. He was afraid that destroying the land would make local animals lose their only home, some animals might even die without food and cover. So Andrew clearly wrote down all his research on the area and how the plan would harm the local ecosystem. Then he wrote to local officials, contacted reporters, and encouraged his neighbors to join him in opposing (反对) the plan. Andrew was only 12, but he showed great abilities beyond his years. Every afternoon after school, he visited every house to ask people who were against the plan to sign their names. In just one month, he got support from many people.

It can be found in public places like airports, schools, and shopping malls. Using an AED is simple just—turn it on and follow the voice instructions. Here are some key steps. 1. Place one pad onto the upper-right chest (胸膛). Place the other onto the lower-left chest. 2. Connect the pads to the AED. 3. Don’t touch the patient! Wait for the result of the examination. 4. Press the button when a shock is advised. 5. Give CPR (心肺复苏) if needed. Remember: Time matters! The “Golden 4 Minutes” is the most important window for survival, the chance of survival drops sharply after 4 minutes. It’s best to treat the patient within the “Golden 4 Minutes”! If an AED is not nearby, send someone to get one as soon as possible and give CPR while waiting. Don’t forget to call 120. 31. Which of the following situations needs an AED? A. When someone’s heart suddenly stops. B. When someone has a headache. C. When someone’s back suddenly hurts. D. When someone has a toothache. 32 Where should the pads be placed on the patient? A. B.

B On Thanksgiving Day, our community planned a special show. The youth director left a message: “Would Patrick sing The Power of Love?” My wife Catherine and I were excited—our five-year-old son would have his first solo (独唱)! Catherine told Patrick, “You sing so beautifully, and it will be fun!” But Patrick looked worried. “Mom,” he said, “sometimes I feel afraid when I have to do something important.” We smiled and said, “We grown-ups (成年人) feel the same way too, but you can decide it by yourself.” After thinking for a minute, Patrick nodded. “Okay, I’ll do it!” Patrick loved music from an early age, but singing alone in front of hundreds of people at age five seemed impossible! When that moment arrived, Catherine, our daughter Melanie and I sat in darkness as a spotlight (聚光灯) found my son, standing alone at the microphone. He was dressed in white, with a pair of angel wings. Slowly but confidently, Patrick did perfectly. As his voice washed over the people, he seemed a true angel.

It not only makes the local tourism better in Yunnan Province, but also shows some cultures in Dali. Let’s take a look at a few. ②Jianchuan wood carving, from Jianchuan of Dali, has a history of more than 1,000 years. The carvings usually include pictures like flowers, plants and so on. They are widely used in buildings, furniture and art. The TV show also points out that the traditional craft of wood carving faces challenges (挑战). The show talks about how machines are taking the place of handwork. The machines can save more time and cost less, so the work becomes more efficient and less costly. ③There are not only crafts shown in the TV play, but also some local food. Dairy Fan, or rushan, is a kind of food made of milk and yogurt, shaped like a fan. As local nice food, it’s a must-try food for visitors to Yunnan. ④The three tea courses are a tea serving tradition of the Bai ethnic group. It is an important tradition during special events such as weddings and festivals. First, boil water and warm the teapot on a gentle fire. After the pot gets hot, put the tea leaves inside. The first course of tea usually smells delicious but tastes bitter. The second course will have sugar in it, which makes it sweet. Finally, the third course will include honey, creating a richer taste. ⑤With the development of our country, Chinese culture has spread widely.

The idea is simple: the buyers will not know which toy it is until they open the boxes, so it’s a bit like gambling (赌博). You may feel happy if you get the things you want, but more often, you can’t get what you like. People spend lots of money on their luck. Pop Mart is a famous company (公司). But it began as a small shop in Beijing’s Zhongguancun area. At first, it sold different kinds of products. Later, the company found that toys were the most popular and best-selling products. They thought selling toys might be the best way. The idea for blind boxes was from Gashapon (扭蛋机) in Japan, which sells blind toys. Each toy inside Pop Mart’s blind boxes costs only about 2 dollars, but they sell for around 8 dollars each. This brings the company a lot of money. Pop Mart had around 6.3 billion yuan in revenue (收入) in the year of 2023, 1.7 billion yuan more than that in 2022. Nowadays, young people really like this kind of toy. Some buyers have collected over 1,000 dolls. In their eyes, the dolls are symbols of their personalities, or they just want to share something cute. Some toys are hard to get, so people sell them at higher prices in the second-hand markets. Some countries make rules to manage the selling of blind boxes, and they work out well. These rules help to stop over-marketing and protect buyers, especially kids, from buying things without thinking and being cheated. To keep growing, Pop Mart needs to keep making something new and sell more toys. Labubu was a big success. The founder wishes that Pop Mart can be a world-famous company like Disney one day. 42. Why are blind boxes so popular in China? A. Because they are very cheap toys for everyone. B. Because they are the best-selling products in all shops. C. Because people always get the toys they want from the boxes. D. Because buyers enjoy the feeling of not knowing what’s inside. 43. Which of the following can show the revenue of Pop Mart in 2022 and 2023? A. B. C. D. 44. Which sentence should go in the empty box in Paragraph 5? A. In fact, blind boxes are toys with no special things. B. However, the blind boxes are as hard to stop as gambling. C. Moreover, many young people think blind boxes are easy to collect. D. Therefore, Pop Mart plans to create more new characters in the future. 45. What can we infer (推断) from the passage? A. People can’t buy blind boxes outside Beijing. B. Pop Mart will surely become as famous as Disney in the future. C. Young people will stop buying blind boxes because of the price. D. Pop Mart needs to create more new things for its development. 第Ⅱ卷(非选择题60分) 五、词汇运用(共10小题;每小题1分，计10分) 根据句子意思，用括号中所给汉语提示或英语单词的适当形式填空。(每空一词) 46. Thank you, doctor.

Andrew enjoyed every peaceful moment there and deeply understood the close connection between all living things. Suddenly, a new plan broke everything!—Many houses would be built in the open land.
