As I stood in line waiting to cash out at my favorite retail store, I studied the customer in front of me. She was young, maybe early twenties. But she already had a tired look to her. Her face looked drawn from exhaustion. Her thin, unbuttoned winter coat had seen those bad days. The items in her cart included the cheapest cuts of meat. Powdered milk, day-old bread, bargain soap, and inexpensive shampoo completed her purchases — well, almost.
“Next!” When the cashier finally told her the cost, the woman’s face paled. She opened a purse and began counting small bills and change. It was obvious she didn’t have enough, and she scanned her groceries to see what she could do without. One by one, she removed things, but she still came up short. She continued to discard much-needed goods while the cashier set them aside patiently. The child’s items remained in the cart, however.
The woman finally paid, and moved down to bag them. When my turn came, I moved forward and placed several items the woman had taken out, whispering “Separate bags, please” to the cashier. I wondered how I could sneak the extra things into the old cart she’d brought without being caught. My clerk solved the problem by “accidentally” rolling several oranges hard enough on the conveyer belt so that they flew past the lady and onto the floor.
“I’ll get those,” the woman offered kindly and ran to pick up the runaway fruit. I quickly put the two extra bags into her cart. Just as I put the second one in, I noticed a twenty-dollar bill peeking out that I had not placed in there.
“You put that money in there, didn’t you?” I accused the clerk with a laugh when I went to pay my bill. I was surprised when she shook her head. “No, it was her,” she replied, pointing to another woman.
My small, insignificant gesture had rippled to become a larger kindness than I ever could have imagined.
24. What can we infer about the customer in front of “me” in Paragraph 1?
A. She is a woman to think of others before herself.
B. She pretended to be poor to gain other’s sympathy.
C. Everything about her screamed hardship and need.
D. Everything she chose wasn’t what she truly needed.
25. What does the underlined word “discard” probably mean in Paragraph 2?
A. Handle. B. Separate. C. Test out. D. Take out.
26. Why did the clerk roll oranges hard enough on the conveyer belt?
A. To do “me” a favor. B. To train her skill.
C. To show her acting experience. D. To help increase grocery sales.
27. What can be the best title for the text?
A. Kindness in Giving Creates Love B. What Goes around Comes around
C. Being Happy Is Enough D. More than a Coincidence
C
Zibo city in Shandong has unexpectedly become famous on Chinese social media since late February for its local barbecue specialty, and this trend continues as the local government takes the opportunity to promote tourism and spending.
The latest promotion gives visitors free admission to 10 scenic spots in the city with their train tickets as long as their final destination is Zibo. This move followed another on March 31 under which the Jinan bureau of China Railway added a weekend special round-trip “barbecue tour” train between Jinan.
Passengers who get on the train are greeted by a banner reading “Welcome to the Special BBQ Train”at the entrance of the train. Many also took videos and posted them on social media, drawing more visitors.
Barbecue is popular in China, and Zibo’s barbecue has its own local features: it’s made on a stove, and is served with flatbread and dressings. The food is 70-80 percent cooked before it is brought to the table, where diners can finish cooking it on their own stoves. Diners are served with flatbreads, scallions and other dressings at the table so they are able to assemble their own barbecue parcels, in much the same way Peking Duck is eaten.
The barbecue suddenly became famous after a group of college students shot videos of themselves enjoying a meal in Zibo and posted them on social media in late February. Since then, many people, mostly young, have come to the city from all over the country to try the dish.
On several streets, lines can be seen outside barbecue restaurants, which stretch for more than 100 meters on the weekend.
“Zibo barbecue is bringing more and more people to the city, and the local government needs to think about how to promote the city as a whole, its culture and tourism, as well as its living and business environment,” said Sun Xiaorong, an expert of tourism marketing and promotion. The trend will eventually end if the local government doesn’t take proper follow-up measures, he added.
28. What does paragraph 1 mainly talk about?
A. Zibo city’s snacks.
B. Zibo city’s places of interest.
C. The reasons why Zibo is famous recently.
D The challenges Zibo meets with at present.
29. What can we know about Zibo’s barbecue from paragraph 4?
A. It is usually paired with flatbread and dressings.
B. It is as delicious as Peking Duck.
C. It is totally toasted by the cook on the stove.
D. It is very cheap and various.
30. What made Zibo’s barbecue suddenly well-known?
A. Young people’s dreams.
B. Local government’s measures.
C. Barbecue restaurants in Zibo city.
D. Some college students’ promotion.
31. Which word can describe Sun Xiaorong’s attitude towards the popularity of Zibo barbecue?
A. Objective. B. Negative.
C. Curious D. Doubtful.
D
Art and Memory: Reflections of the Past
Art and Memory: Reflections of the Past is an exploration of how art captures the essence of human memory and history. Through two hundred carefully curated pieces from various global collections, the exhibit delves into the interplay (相互作用) between art and memory across different cultures and epochs. The works span centuries, showcasing how artists have consistently sought to encapsulate moments in time, preserving them for future generations.
The exhibition highlights how art serves as a vessel for personal and collective memories. Portraits of historical figures, scenes of significant events, and depictions of everyday life offer a window into the past. In these representations, we find a common thread: the human desire to remember and be remembered. The pieces evoke a sense of nostalgia, bridging the gap between the viewer and the depicted eras.
One striking aspect of the exhibit is the use of symbolism. Objects within the artworks often carry deeper meanings, reflecting the subject’s social status, personal achievements, or cultural significance. For example, a clock may symbolize the passage of time, while a particular flower might represent a specific emotion or event. These symbols enrich the viewer’s understanding, adding layers of complexity to the artwork.
In the modern sections of the exhibit, contemporary artists use innovative mediums to address themes of memory and loss. Digital art, installations, and mixed media works challenge traditional notions of how art can convey memory. These pieces often engage the audience interactively, inviting them to reflect on their own memories and the fleeting nature of time. Art and Memory: Reflections of the Past not only showcases the beauty of artistic expression but also prompts a deeper contemplation of how we remember and are remembered.
32. What is the primary focus of the exhibition?
A. Technological advancements in art.
B. The role of memory in art.
C. The evolution of artistic styles.
D. The personal lives of artists.
33. How do the artworks in the exhibition connect with viewers?
A. By showcasing futuristic themes.
B. By using symbolism to convey deeper meanings.
C. By presenting abstract concepts.
D. By focusing on modern technology.
34. Which of the following best explains “vessel” underlined in paragraph 3?
A. A medium for storing and sharing personal and collective memories.
B. Contain for holding liquid.
C. Something that harms personal and collective.
D. A person who helps personal and collective.
35. Which of the following titles best encapsulates the essence of the presented discourse?
A. Art and Memory: A Journey Through Time
B. Echoes (回声) of the Past: Artistic Reflections on Memory
C. The Interplay (相互作用) of Art and History: Exploring Collective Memory
D. Visual Narratives: Unraveling (解开) the Threads of Time through Artistic Expression

Oliver was a small and introvert (内向的) boy who kept to himself. He was quiet and preferred indoor activities. Sitting in the corner of the class, he was very much a loner.
At the beginning of the semester, Oliver had a new classmate, Alan, who had just returned to England. Alan was assigned a seat next to Oliver. To his surprise, within weeks, he became good friends with Alan even though they were poles apart in personality. Alan was popular, outspoken and artistic. “Alan is all that I want to be,” Oliver thought to himself. He began listening to the music Alan listened to and having similar haircut. He even quit his drama club and started playing the online games that Alan played. He seemed to have been out of his loneliness.
It was not long before Oliver was introduced to Alan’s “cool” friends. He told himself that he would try all means to be part of the group. He would follow them to the football games and join the art club after school so he could spend more time hanging out with them. Oliver followed them around laughing when they told jokes, agreeing when they had opinions—most enthusiastically at the ones he disagreed with. He did not dare to differ in opinions as he would not want them to think badly of him. This continued for several months. At last, Oliver felt relieved that he had finally fitted in.
One day, Oliver overheard Alan and his cool friends talking. “Oliver is such a loser,” one boy commented in a playful tone. “He just follows you around trying to be you. He copies you; he does not have a personality of his own!” another boy exclaimed. Alan laughed, to make matters worse, he added, “That fellow wears me out. I wish he would leave me alone. He thinks we are best friends. A thorough fool!”
注意:
1.续写词数应为150个左右;

Oliver stood still to the ground and could not believe his ears.

W: You know, billions of water bottles are being thrown away. These bottles take hundreds of years to break down. I think we can use them to create clothes and help the environment.
M: Awesome! Is the process of making clothes complicated?
W: In fact, it is rather simple. First, the plastic bottles are washed and cut into small pieces. Then they are melted and shaped into small balls. The balls are melted again to form thread. We can then use the thread to make clothes.
M: How many plastic bottles does it take to make a ton of thread?
W: It takes 67,000 bottles. This reduces carbon emissions by 4.2 tons and water use by 6.2 tons.

M: Thank you for letting us know so much.

【答案】18. B 19. A 20. C
【解析】
【原文】W: Have you heard of the “digital pickled vegetables”? It refers to the videos people watch while eating that make their food more appetizing. Nowadays many young people in China are kept company by TV shows or short videos during a meal. They believe that their food is tastier with the “digital pickles”. Can this habit affect your diet? According to a research paper published in 2019, you may eat more unconsciously. The research team asked 62 volunteers to follow different eating patterns on four different days. The patterns included eating while looking at the mobile phone, reading magazines and without distraction. After analyzing their diets, the team discovered that when eating with a distraction, our attention can be distracted, which leads to eating more than expected. This study suggests that if you’re eating or drinking while your attention is distracted by a highly engaging task, you’re less likely to be able to tell how full you feel. This works not only for eating meals but other demanding tasks as well.

As I stood in line waiting to cash out at my favorite retail store, I studied the customer in front of me. She was young, maybe early twenties. But she already had a tired look to her. Her face looked drawn from exhaustion. Her thin, unbuttoned winter coat had seen those bad days. The items in her cart included the cheapest cuts of meat. Powdered milk, day-old bread, bargain soap, and inexpensive shampoo completed her purchases — well, almost.
“Next!” When the cashier finally told her the cost, the woman’s face paled. She opened a purse and began counting small bills and change. It was obvious she didn’t have enough, and she scanned her groceries to see what she could do without. One by one, she removed things, but she still came up short. She continued to discard much-needed goods while the cashier set them aside patiently. The child’s items remained in the cart, however.
The woman finally paid, and moved down to bag them. When my turn came, I moved forward and placed several items the woman had taken out, whispering “Separate bags, please” to the cashier. I wondered how I could sneak the extra things into the old cart she’d brought without being caught. My clerk solved the problem by “accidentally” rolling several oranges hard enough on the conveyer belt so that they flew past the lady and onto the floor.
“I’ll get those,” the woman offered kindly and ran to pick up the runaway fruit. I quickly put the two extra bags into her cart. Just as I put the second one in, I noticed a twenty-dollar bill peeking out that I had not placed in there.
“You put that money in there, didn’t you?” I accused the clerk with a laugh when I went to pay my bill. I was surprised when she shook her head. “No, it was her,” she replied, pointing to another woman.
My small, insignificant gesture had rippled to become a larger kindness than I ever could have imagined.
24. What can we infer about the customer in front of “me” in Paragraph 1?
A. She is a woman to think of others before herself.
B. She pretended to be poor to gain other’s sympathy.
C. Everything about her screamed hardship and need.
D. Everything she chose wasn’t what she truly needed.
25. What does the underlined word “discard” probably mean in Paragraph 2?
A. Handle. B. Separate. C. Test out. D. Take out.
26. Why did the clerk roll oranges hard enough on the conveyer belt?
A. To do “me” a favor. B. To train her skill.
C. To show her acting experience. D. To help increase grocery sales.
27. What can be the best title for the text?
A. Kindness in Giving Creates Love B. What Goes around Comes around
C. Being Happy Is Enough D. More than a Coincidence
【答案】24. C 25. D 26. A 27. A

【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者目睹了一位贫穷的女士在超市购物,她所购的物品均是打折廉价物品,即便如此,这位女士所带现金依然不够,后来她得到作者、收银员及另外一位顾客暗中相助的故事。
【24题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段中“I studied the customer in front of me. She was young, maybe early twenties. But she already had a tired look to her. Her face looked drawn from exhaustion. Her thin, unbuttoned winter coat had seen those bad days. The items in her cart included the cheapest cuts of meat. Powdered milk, day-old bread, bargain soap, and inexpensive shampoo completed her purchases — well, almost.(我端详着面前的顾客。她很年轻,大概二十出头。但她已经显出疲倦的样子。她的脸看上去疲惫不堪。她那件单薄的、没有扣扣子的冬衣经历过那些糟糕的日子。她购物车里的东西包括最便宜的肉块。她买的东西全是奶粉、陈年面包、廉价肥皂和便宜的洗发水——嗯,差不多。)”可知,她疲惫憔悴的脸、薄薄的没有扣扣子的冬衣以及购物车里的物品都说明了她生活充满了艰辛,经济紧张。故选C。
【25题详解】
词义猜测题。根据第二段中“It was obvious she didn’t have enough, and she scanned her groceries to see what she could do without. One by one, she removed things, but she still came up short. (很明显,她的钱不够,于是她扫视了一下她的杂货,看看有什么东西可以不用。她一件一件地把物品拿出来,但钱还是不够。)”以及划线词所在句子“She continued to discard much-needed goods while the cashier set them aside patiently.(她继续discard急需的物品,而收银员则耐心地把它们放在一边。)”可知,她所带的现金不足,于是把很多生活必需品一件一件地拿出来。故此可推断,划线词discard的含义为“拿出”,与take out意思一致。故选D。
【26题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第三段中“I wondered how I could sneak the extra things into the old cart she’d brought without being caught. My clerk solved the problem by ‘accidentally’ rolling several oranges hard enough on the conveyer belt so that they flew past the lady and onto the floor.(我不知道怎样才能把额外的东西偷偷放进她带来的旧推车里而不被发现。店员解决了这个问题,她‘不小心’把几个橙子在传送带上滚动得足够用力,以至于它们从那位女士身边飞到了地板上。)”以及第四段中“‘I’ll get those,’ the woman offered kindly and ran to pick up the runaway fruit. I quickly put the two extra bags into her cart. (‘我来捡。’女人好心地说,然后跑去捡掉在地上的水果。我迅速地把两个额外的袋子放进她的手推车里。)”可知,作者想知道怎样能把多余的东西偷塞进她带来的旧推车里并且不被发现,而店员解决了这个问题,故此可推断,店员那样做的目的是帮助作者。故选A。
【27题详解】
主旨大意题。根据文章最后一段“My small, insignificant gesture had rippled to become a larger kindness than I ever could have imagined.(我小小的、微不足道的举动已经变成了一种比我想象的更大的善意。)”结合整篇文章中故事的详细阐述可知,本文主要阐述了暗中相助的故事,作者帮助别人付钱且不想被发现的善意举动得到了其他人的帮助; 由此可知,选项A“Kindness in Giving Creates Love(善良的给予创造了爱)”能够概括文章主旨,适合作为最佳标题。故选A。
C
Zibo city in Shandong has unexpectedly become famous on Chinese social media since late February for its local barbecue specialty, and this trend continues as the local government takes the opportunity to promote tourism and spending.
The latest promotion gives visitors free admission to 10 scenic spots in the city with their train tickets as long as their final destination is Zibo. This move followed another on March 31 under which the Jinan bureau of China Railway added a weekend special round-trip “barbecue tour” train between Jinan.
Passengers who get on the train are greeted by a banner reading “Welcome to the Special BBQ Train”at the entrance of the train. Many also took videos and posted them on social media, drawing more visitors.
Barbecue is popular in China, and Zibo’s barbecue has its own local features: it’s made on a stove, and is served with flatbread and dressings. The food is 70-80 percent cooked before it is brought to the table, where diners can finish cooking it on their own stoves. Diners are served with flatbreads, scallions and other dressings at the table so they are able to assemble their own barbecue parcels, in much the same way Peking Duck is eaten.
The barbecue suddenly became famous after a group of college students shot videos of themselves enjoying a meal in Zibo and posted them on social media in late February. Since then, many people, mostly young, have come to the city from all over the country to try the dish.
On several streets, lines can be seen outside barbecue restaurants, which stretch for more than 100 meters on the weekend.
“Zibo barbecue is bringing more and more people to the city, and the local government needs to think about how to promote the city as a whole, its culture and tourism, as well as its living and business environment,” said Sun Xiaorong, an expert of tourism marketing and promotion. The trend will eventually end if the local government doesn’t take proper follow-up measures, he added.
28. What does paragraph 1 mainly talk about?
A. Zibo city’s snacks.
B. Zibo city’s places of interest.
C. The reasons why Zibo is famous recently.
D. The challenges Zibo meets with at present.
29. What can we know about Zibo’s barbecue from paragraph 4?
A. It is usually paired with flatbread and dressings.
B. It is as delicious as Peking Duck.
C. It is totally toasted by the cook on the stove.
D. It is very cheap and various.
30. What made Zibo’s barbecue suddenly well-known?
A. Young people’s dreams.
B. Local government’s measures.
C. Barbecue restaurants in Zibo city.
D. Some college students’ promotion.
31. Which word can describe Sun Xiaorong’s attitude towards the popularity of Zibo barbecue?
A. Objective. B. Negative.
C. Curious D. Doubtful.
【答案】28. C 29. A 30. D 31. A

Diners are served with flatbreads, scallions and other dressings at the table so they are able to assemble their own barbecue parcels, in much the same way Peking Duck is eaten.”(烧烤在中国很受欢迎,淄博的烧烤有自己的地方特色:在炉子上烤,配上面饼和调料。在上桌之前,食物已经煮了70- 80%,食客可以在自己的炉子上完成烹饪。食客们可以在餐桌上享用大饼、葱花和其他调味料,这样他们就可以自己组装烧烤包,这与吃北京烤鸭的方式大致相同)可知,从第4段我们可以知道淄博烧烤通常与面饼和调味品搭配。故选A项。

Art and Memory: Reflections of the Past
Art and Memory: Reflections of the Past is an exploration of how art captures the essence of human memory and history. Through two hundred carefully curated pieces from various global collections, the exhibit delves into the interplay (相互作用) between art and memory across different cultures and epochs. The works span centuries, showcasing how artists have consistently sought to encapsulate moments in time, preserving them for future generations.
The exhibition highlights how art serves as a vessel for personal and collective memories. Portraits of historical figures, scenes of significant events, and depictions of everyday life offer a window into the past. In these representations, we find a common thread: the human desire to remember and be remembered. The pieces evoke a sense of nostalgia, bridging the gap between the viewer and the depicted eras.
One striking aspect of the exhibit is the use of symbolism. Objects within the artworks often carry deeper meanings, reflecting the subject’s social status, personal achievements, or cultural significance. For example, a clock may symbolize the passage of time, while a particular flower might represent a specific emotion or event. These symbols enrich the viewer’s understanding, adding layers of complexity to the artwork.
In the modern sections of the exhibit, contemporary artists use innovative mediums to address themes of memory and loss. Digital art, installations, and mixed media works challenge traditional notions of how art can convey memory. These pieces often engage the audience interactively, inviting them to reflect on their own memories and the fleeting nature of time. Art and Memory: Reflections of the Past not only showcases the beauty of artistic expression but also prompts a deeper contemplation of how we remember and are remembered.
32. What is the primary focus of the exhibition?
A. Technological advancements in art.
B. The role of memory in art.
C. The evolution of artistic styles.
D. The personal lives of artists.
33. How do the artworks in the exhibition connect with viewers?
A. By showcasing futuristic themes.
B. By using symbolism to convey deeper meanings.
C. By presenting abstract concepts.
D. By focusing on modern technology.
34. Which of the following best explains “vessel” underlined in paragraph 3?
A. A medium for storing and sharing personal and collective memories.
B. Contain for holding liquid.
C. Something that harms personal and collective.
D. A person who helps personal and collective.
35. Which of the following titles best encapsulates the essence of the presented discourse?
A. Art and Memory: A Journey Through Time
B. Echoes (回声) of the Past: Artistic Reflections on Memory
C. The Interplay (相互作用) of Art and History: Exploring Collective Memory
D. Visual Narratives: Unraveling (解开) the Threads of Time through Artistic Expression
【答案】32. B 33. B 34. A 35. B
【解析】

【35题详解】
主旨大意题。短文主要探讨了艺术如何捕捉和反映人类记忆,特别是通过不同文化和时代的艺术作品来展示这一点。根据短文内容可知,B项“过去的回声:对记忆的艺术反思”这个标题最能概括所呈现论述的精髓。故选B。

【40题详解】
根据上文“If you want to get feedback, motivation, and potential new friends, locate a runners group near you. They’re all over the place and they exist for all different levels and events.(如果你想获得反馈、动力和潜在的新朋友,那就在你附近找一个跑步小组。它们无处不在,存在于所有不同的水平和活动中)”可知,本段主要建议寻找跑步团体,本句为本段最后一句,故就如何找到跑步团体提出建议。故E选项“你可以试着用谷歌搜索一下你所在地区的跑步团体”符合语境,故选E。

第二节(满分25分)
67. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Oliver was a small and introvert (内向的) boy who kept to himself. He was quiet and preferred indoor activities. Sitting in the corner of the class, he was very much a loner.
At the beginning of the semester Oliver had a new classmate, Alan, who had just returned to England. Alan was assigned a seat next to Oliver. To his surprise, within weeks, he became good friends with Alan even though they were poles apart in personality. Alan was popular, outspoken and artistic. “Alan is all that I want to be,” Oliver thought to himself. He began listening to the music Alan listened to and having similar haircut. He even quit his drama club and started playing the online games that Alan played. He seemed to have been out of his loneliness.
It was not long before Oliver was introduced to Alan’s “cool” friends. He told himself that he would try all means to be part of the group. He would follow them to the football games and join the art club after school so he could spend more time hanging out with them. Oliver followed them around laughing when they told jokes, agreeing when they had opinions—most enthusiastically at the ones he disagreed with. He did not dare to differ in opinions as he would not want them to think badly of him. This continued for several months. At last, Oliver felt relieved that he had finally fitted in.
One day, Oliver overheard Alan and his cool friends talking. “Oliver is such a loser,” one boy commented in a playful tone. “He just follows you around trying to be you. He copies you; he does not have a personality of his own!” another boy exclaimed. Alan laughed, to make matters worse, he added, “That fellow wears me out. I wish he would leave me alone. He thinks we are best friends. A thorough fool!”
注意:
1.续写词数应为150个左右;
2.按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Paragraph 1:
Oliver stood still to the ground and could not believe his ears.

Paragraph 2:
Oliver decided to change himself after hearing his mother’s words.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】Paragraph 1:
Oliver stood still to the ground and could not believe his ears. Trembling and sobbing, he collapsed on the ground, feeling alone and betrayed. He had no choice but to cry all the way back home. Seeing his mother, he couldn’t contain his sorrow, pouring the incident out to her, who would always be there for him whenever he felt down. Stroking her trembling boy, the mother said gently, “just be yourself, Son! People will like you for who you are. ” Oliver had heard the remarks a million times before, yet he never truly got the point. Suddenly, it all clicked.
Paragraph 2:
Oliver decided to change himself after hearing his mother’s words. He bought a new schoolbag and chose a haircut he fancied. He dropped his art class and joined the drama club. He made new friends who liked him for who he was. He rediscovered himself. If he had not been given the chance, he might have been too concerned with “fitting in” desperately to experience some of the “best” times of his life. It dawned on him that despite the pain he felt that day, it was a gift they had given him, which taught him to be himself.
