Ⅰ.阅读理解
(2025广东江门月考)
In every corner of the world, local festivals are a vibrant expression of a community's identity, history, and values. These celebrations are not just about having a good time; they are a way to pass down traditions from one generation to the next and strengthen the connection within a community.
Take La Tomatina in Buñol, Spain, for example. Every August, thousands of people gather in the town square. At the signal, they start throwing tomatoes at each other, creating a sea of red pulp and juice. What seems like a simple and messy tomato fight is actually a deeply-rooted tradition. It dates back to the mid-1940s, though the exact origin story is a bit of a mystery. Some say it started as an unplanned and unexpected fight that broke out during a local event, while others believe it was a way for young people to fight against the established order. Over the years, it has become a major tourist attraction, but for the locals, it remains a valuable part of their heritage.
Then there is the Harbin International Ice and Snow Festival in China. Held in the city of Harbin during the coldest months of winter, this festival features magnificent ice sculptures(雕塑). Artists from all over the world come to show their skills, carving intricate designs into huge blocks of ice. The sculptures range from famous landmarks to mythical creatures. The festival not only provides an opportunity for artistic expression but also promotes the local economy. Tourists crowd Harbin to admire the sculptures, stay in local hotels, and sample the local cuisine.
These local festivals, with their unique customs and stories, add color and richness to our global cultural tapestry. They remind us of the variety of human experiences and the importance of preserving our traditions.

Part 2 Discovering Useful Structures &Listening and Talking
基础过关练
Ⅰ.1.harvest 2.belief 3.envelopes;atmosphere
4.gather
Ⅱ.1.pleased 考查形容词。句意:到目前为止,刘易斯先生对他的实验结果很满意。 be pleased with sth.意为“对……满意”。故填pleased。
2.Frankly 考查副词。句意:坦率地说,我们都感到很累,甚至腿都疼。frankly speaking意为“坦率地说”。设空处位于句首,首字母要大写,故填Frankly。
3.faithful 考查形容词。句意:朋友之间相互忠诚也很重要。设空处作表语,表示“忠诚的;忠心的”,故填faithful。
4.significance 考查名词。句意:在六月的最后一节课的铃声响起时,我带着一本装满有关写作最深刻意义的留言的年鉴离开了课堂。根据空前的名词所有格writing's和形容词最高级most powerful可知,设空处应用名词形式。此处表示“意义”,故填 significance。
5.in 考查介词。句意:位于加利福尼亚州圣克拉拉市的塔夫特小学的一些教室有一个共同的缺点:它们没有窗户。have sth. in common为固定短语,意为“有相同的特征”。故填in。
6.when 考查定语从句。句意:中秋节是全家人聚在一起赏月、吃月饼的特别时刻。分析句子可知,设空处引导定语从句,修饰先行词occasion,表示“机会;时刻;时间”,关系词在从句中作时间状语,故用关系副词when。
易错归因
本题容易误用关系副词where引导定语从句,认为先行词occasion表示“场合”,关系词在从句中作地点状语。此题强调“中秋节”这个时刻,所以只要正确理解occasion在句中的意义就能确定正确答案。
Ⅲ.1.challenging 考查现在分词作表语。句意:从伦敦前往什鲁斯伯里市中心颇具挑战性,但值得为之承受焦虑。设空处作表语,意为“具有挑战性的”,故用形容词化的现在分词challenging。
2.collecting 考查动名词作表语。句意:他的一个爱好是收集邮票,这给他带来了极大的乐趣。设空处作表语,说明主语的内容,且表示习惯性的动作,故用动名词collecting。
3.operating 考查动名词作定语。 此处表示“搭起手术台”,设空处作定语修饰名词table,表示用途,故用动名词operating。
4.satisfying 考查现在分词作表语。句意:他拒绝接受这份工作,因为他认为薪水不令人满意。设空处作表语,意为“令人满意的”,故用形容词化的现在分词satisfying。
5.telling 考查现在分词作后置定语。句意:有无数的文章告诉我们互联网是如何让我们的生活更方便的。设空处作后置定语修饰名词articles,articles与tell之间为主动关系,应用现在分词,故填telling。
6.sleeping 考查动名词作定语。句意:大多数长途火车,尤其是卧铺车厢,很快就会售罄。设空处作定语修饰名词car,表示用途,故用动名词sleeping。
7.visiting 考查现在分词作定语。句意:他们与蜂拥而至的国际游客和来访的中国动物园饲养员交谈,这些动物园饲养员经常来查看从中国租借来的大熊猫。分析句子可知,设空处作定语修饰空后的“Chinese zookeepers”,被修饰词与提示词visit之间为主动关系,应用现在分词作定语,故填visiting。

1.B 词义猜测题。根据第三段中的“Artists from all over the world...mythical creatures.”可知,来自世界各地的艺术家们前来展示他们的技艺,他们能在巨大的冰块上雕刻出复杂精细的图案,因此intricate在此处意为“复杂精细的”,与detailed“精细的,细致的”意思相近。故选B。
2.D 推理判断题。根据第二段最后一句“Over the years, it has become a major tourist attraction, but for the locals, it remains a valuable part of their heritage.”和第三段最后一句“Tourists crowd Harbin to admire the sculptures, stay in local hotels, and sample the local cuisine.”可知,地方节日既能吸引当地人,又能吸引游客。故选D。
