C 【解析】 【导语】本文以动画电影《小妖怪的夏天》为引，探讨了年轻人在追求梦想时面临的困境，并通过庞众望的真实励志故事，鼓励人们不要“躺平”，要坚持梦想、突破自我。 【31题详解】 句意：作为年轻人，我们中的许多人都梦想着长大后成为“某个人物”。 根据后文“梦想”及电影主题，此处表示“梦想成为”，应用dream of，为固定搭配。think of“想到”、hear of“听说”、speak of“谈到”均不符合追求理想的语境。 【32题详解】 句意：我们是否应该放弃，转而“躺平”？ 根据前文“感觉离梦想遥远”及后文“躺平”，此处表示放弃努力，应用give up。cut up“切碎”、put up“张贴”、cheer up“振作起来”均与“躺平”的消极含义不符。 【33题详解】 句意：四个小怪物离开浪浪山，开始了自己的朝圣之旅。 根据电影情节，他们离开家乡去冒险，应用leave，表示“离开”。climb“爬”、enjoy“享受”、get“得到”均无法表达启程的动作。 【34题详解】 句意：一路上，许多其他怪物嘲笑他们的梦想，但他们继续战斗。 前句“嘲笑”与后句“继续战斗”为转折关系，应用but。and表并列，so表因果，because表原因，均不符合逻辑。 【35题详解】 句意：在现实生活中，许多普通人也选择坚持他们的梦想。 根据上文怪物坚持梦想，此处普通人同样“坚持”梦想，应用stick to。reply to“回复”、turn to“转向”、thanks to“多亏”均无法表达坚守之意。 【36题详解】 句意：他的父亲患有重病。 根据上下文，父亲身体不好，应用suffered from，表示“遭受（疾病）”。protected from“保护免受”、learned from“向……学习”、stopped from“阻止”均不符合患病语境。 【37题详解】 句意：尽管困难重重，但在母亲的影响下，他乐观地长大。 在母亲的“影响”下成长，应用influence。will“意志”、protection“保护”、invention“发明”均不如influence贴合家庭教育的语境。 【38题详解】 句意：凭借巨大努力，他在学校的成绩一直很优秀。 后文提到他高考考了684分，说明成绩“优秀”，应用excellent。bad“差”、low“低”、unsatisfied“不满意的”均与事实相反。 【39题详解】 句意：显然，如果你“躺平”，你将永远只是一个“无名小卒”。 根据“躺平”的结果，你将“一直是”nobody，应用remain，表示“仍然、保持”。prepare“准备”、lie“躺”、encourage“鼓励”均不符合句意。 【40题详解】 句意：我们祝你好运，并努力突破你自己的“浪浪山”！ 根据电影中怪物们离开浪浪山去冒险，此处比喻突破困境、实现梦想，应用break through，表示“突破”。break into“闯入”、break up“分手/打碎”、break down“出故障”均无法表达突破自我之意。 B Recently, a special event ____41____ in Shanghai. Claude Brouir, from Belgium (比利时), arrived after ____42____ more than 12,000 kilometers from Brussels (布鲁塞尔). People in Shanghai welcomed him ____43____ with cheers and flowers.

Brouir used a special bike. It had two motors (发动机) and four solar panels (太阳能板). The bike also ____47____ a trailer (拖车) carrying his tent (帐篷) and daily things. Along the way, he saw many beautiful places and often received help from strangers. This year is the 50th anniversary (周年纪念日) of China-EU relations (中欧关系), which makes his arrival even more ____48____.

B 【解析】 【导语】本文讲述了一位比利时人骑行12000多公里从布鲁塞尔到上海的故事，此行正值中欧建交50周年，意义非凡，体现了友谊与联结。 【41题详解】 句意：最近，一个特殊的事件在上海发生。 根据句意，此处需要表示“发生”的不及物动词短语。took place意为“发生”，符合语境。took part in需要宾语，不符；took over“接管”和took up“开始从事”与主语“事件”搭配不当。 【42题详解】 句意：来自比利时的Claude Brouir在骑行超过12000公里后到达。 空前为介词after，需接动名词；根据上下文，他是骑自行车来的，所以riding“骑行”正确。reaching“到达”后接距离不合逻辑；taking“花费”常接时间或路程，但直接接距离不常用；holding“持有”不符。 【43题详解】 句意：上海的人们用欢呼和鲜花热烈地欢迎他。 根据“with cheers and flowers”可知，欢迎是热情的，warmly“热烈地”符合。silently“沉默地”与欢呼矛盾；truly“真实地”侧重真实性；calmly“平静地”与欢呼不符。 【44题详解】 句意：120多天里，他骑行穿越了欧洲和亚洲的山脉、河流和广阔田野。 rode后需介词表示“穿过”，across“横过，穿越”符合。behind“在后面”表示位置；among“在……中间”用于三者以上；with“和”均不表示穿越。 【45题详解】 句意：这个想法始于去年十一月，当时Brouir来上海看望他现在住在这个城市的大儿子。 空格处引导定语从句修饰先行词his eldest son，指人且在从句中作主语，故用who。which指物；when表时间；where表地点，均不符。 【46题详解】 句意：Brouir参加了一个骑行活动，并被当地骑手的善意感动。 根据语境，他参加了活动，joined“参加”正确。shook“摇晃”；spread“传播”；fed“喂养”均与活动无关。 【47题详解】 句意：这辆自行车还拖着一个拖车，装着帐篷和日常用品。 根据“a trailer”可知，是自行车拖着拖车，pulled“拉，拖”符合。pushed“推”方向相反；broke“打破”；fell“落下”均不合逻辑。 【48题详解】 句意：今年是中欧关系50周年，这使得他的到来更有意义。 周年纪念赋予此行特殊含义，meaningful“有意义的”恰当。successful“成功的”强调结果；patient“耐心的”形容人；famous“著名的”与语境不符。 【49题详解】 句意：“来到这里不是结束，”他笑着说，“这是一个新的开始。” 此处与前文“不是结束”对应，应是新的开始，beginning“开始”正确。meeting“会议”；greeting“问候”；living“生活”均不构成对比。 【50题详解】 句意：他们说上海将永远欢迎来自欧洲的朋友，并作为连接人们友谊的桥梁。 比喻上海起到连接作用，bridge“桥梁”符合。bike“自行车”；tower“塔”；river“河”均无比喻连接之意。 Ⅶ.补全对话（共5小题；每小题1分，满分5分） 根据对话内容，从选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，其中有两个为多余选项。 A：Good afternoon.

There is even a catchy name for it: twalking. It’s dangerous to twalk. People who stare (盯着看) at their phones while walking can easily run into an object or person, trip over something or fall. Some people say twalkers should be fined (罚款). They argue that their behavior is just as dangerous as drunk driving. Others disagree. They say handing out fines is going a step too far. Which side are you on? If you’re looking at your phone while walking, you’re clearly putting yourself and others at risk. Fining twalkers would make people take the danger more seriously. Just think about how many people didn’t wear seatbelts until it was required by law. Studies have shown that spending too much time on our phones isn’t good for our health. If people stop twalking, they’ll look up, look around and enjoy the world around them. Twalking is a bad habit and can be dangerous. However, I don’t think fines are the answer. Leaders should instead come up with creative ways to make streets safer. For example, a city in Poland added traffic lights to the sidewalk. This allows people to see the signals (信号) even if they are looking down. More importantly, people should learn to be responsible citizens on their own. They shouldn’t need to be fined to know when to put their phones away. 56. What does the underlined word “twalking” refer to? A. Driving after drinking. B. Texting while walking. C. Looking around while walking. D. Running into objects on the street. 57. What is Anthony Lin’s opinion about fining twalkers? A. She thinks it is unnecessary. B. She argues that it is as dangerous as drunk driving. C. She suggests using creative ways instead of fines. D. She believes it can make people take the danger more seriously. 58. Which of the following would Hasan Walker probably agree with? A. Twalking should be completely stopped by law. B. People need fines to know when to put phones away. C. Creative methods should be used to improve street safety. D. The laws about twalking are very effective now. 【答案】56. B 57. D 58. C 【解析】 【导语】本文讨论了“走路看手机”这一现象是否应该被罚款，呈现了支持和反对的两种不同观点。 【56题详解】 第一段指出：“Texting while walking has become quite common. There is even a catchy name for it: twalking.”，明确说明“twalking”指的是“texting while walking”，即边走边发信息。 【57题详解】 Anthony Lin的观点：“Fining twalkers would make people take the danger more seriously.”，表明她支持罚款，认为罚款能让人更重视危险。 【58题详解】 Hasan Walker的观点：“Leaders should instead come up with creative ways to make streets safer.”，说明他赞成用创意方法提升街道安全，而非罚款。 B I’ve been interested in nature since I was little. Every weekend, I’d borrow many books about animals from the library. I dreamed of following in Jane Goodall’s footsteps, going away for years to live in the wild and study animals. Over the years, I’ve changed in many ways, but my love of nature has never gone. When I entered high school last year, I joined the Science Olympiad team. The old sense of wonder when studying animals came back. Every day brings new adventures. One day, I might be exploring the birth of the universe; the next, I could be studying the rocks under my feet. I’m lucky to have so many amazing teammates. Together, we’ve run tests to make the design of our model car perfect. We’ve pretended (假装) to be forensic scientists (法医), solving “crimes” (犯罪) by studying different objects. I was used to working alone. I once thought a team could succeed only if everyone was an expert. Working with my teammates has changed my mind. As the old saying goes, “Many hands make light work.” No great progress has been made alone. It always takes thousands of people—working together—to make the impossible possible. I am eager (渴望) for my next science adventure. But unlike before, I now know that I won’t be an explorer alone. My teammates will be by my side, learning and growing with me. 59. What did the writer often do on weekends when he was little? A. He often went to the wild to study animals. B. He often joined the Science Olympiad team. C. He often worked with his teammates to solve problems. D. He often borrowed as many animal books as possible from the library. 60. When did the writer join the Science Olympiad team? A. When he was in primary school. B. When he had the dream of following Jane Goodall. C. When he entered high school last year. D. After he had his next science adventure. 61. What does the old saying “Many hands make light work” mean in the passage? A. Only experts can make a team successful. B. Working alone is better than working with others. C.

He used that time to climb to the top of a hill. There, he could see a house on another hill. It had golden windows. They were really bright and shone like diamonds (钻石). One day, the boy’s father said to him, “You worked really hard, so you can take a day off. Try to learn something good.” The boy thanked his father. Then, he left home and walked to the far hill. He came to the house and knocked on the door, and a girl answered. He told her about the golden windows. The girl shook her head and said, “Poor farmers like us only have glass windows. Look there! That’s the house with the golden windows.” She pointed at something far away. When the boy looked, he saw his own house. He then thanked the girl and rushed home.

However, this will be the first year that I spend the Mid-Autumn Festival away from them. To help reduce some of the homesickness, my friends and I are planning to attend a full-moon-themed party in New York City’s Chinatown. Even though the party is a few days after the Mid-Autumn Festival, I’m sure it will still be fun. I’m really touched that my friends suggested this especially since none of them are from Asian countries. I can’t wait to show them how much fun this Chinese festival is. As a newcomer to the US, I miss my family a lot, but I know I have to get used to not being able to see them when I want. It’s part of growing up. At the same time, I’m looking forward to spending the Mid-Autumn Festival with my friends. Even though we’ve only known each other for a month, I already consider them family. If, like me, you feel homesick in the Mid-Autumn Festival, hanging out with a couple of close friends will be a good choice. It’s easy to become busy with school life, so having a small get-together will be a great way to take a break from your heavy schoolwork, chat with friends, and admire the moon on this special day. 70. Which word can best describe the feeling of the writer in Paragraph 1? A. Nervous. B. Lonely. C. Embarrassed. D. Ashamed. 71. What warms the writer’s heart? A. Meeting old friends in Chinatown. B. Taking part in a big theme party. C. Her family’s expectation for her. D. Her friends’ love and care for her. 72. What advice does the writer give to others in her situation? A. To share photos with teachers. B. To spend time with friends. C. To go back home immediately. D. To try doing something new. 【答案】70. B 71. D 72. B 【解析】 【导语】本文介绍了作者第一次在国外过中秋节，虽有思乡之情，但通过朋友的陪伴感到温暖，并建议有同样处境的人与朋友共度佳节。 【70题详解】 第一段指出：“this will be the first year that I spend the Mid-Autumn Festival away from them.”，明确表示作者将第一次离开家人过中秋节，结合语境“away from them”表达了因远离家人而产生的孤独感，因此Lonely最能概括作者的心情。 【71题详解】 第二段提到：“I’m really touched that my friends suggested this especially since none of them are from Asian countries.”，说明作者被朋友们（尽管都不是亚洲人）主动提议为她举办中秋活动而感动，体现了朋友的关爱。 【72题详解】 最后一段指出：“if, like me, you feel homesick... hanging out with a couple of close friends will be a good choice.”，明确建议感到思乡的人可以和朋友一起度过节日。 第二节 F 阅读下面短文，并用英语回答问题（请注意每小题的词数要求）。 Once upon a time, in a forest, there lived a monkey and an elephant. They were good friends and did almost everything together. But one day, the two had a disagreement. The monkey argued (争论) that being fast and agile (敏捷的) was key to success. The elephant disagreed. He believed that strength mattered much more. So they turned to the wise owl for help. After listening, the owl pointed to a shiny fruit at the top of a tall tree across the river. “Bring me that fruit,” he said. “And then I’ll answer your question.” They set off. When the two reached the bank, the monkey froze (呆住)—It was too deep and too wide for him to cross. The elephant, however, rushed forward and easily got to the tree. But when he tried to reach the fruit, he found it was too high. The elephant had no choice but to return to the riverbank to ask the monkey for help. Once they reached the tree, the monkey climbed it and picked the fruit. Then they made their way back. The owl asked, “Of the two of you, which one brought fruit to me?” The monkey proudly said, “I did! I climbed the tree and picked it.” The elephant argued, “No, I did! Without me, he couldn’t have even crossed the river!” The owl smiled and stopped the argument. “You are both wrong,” he said. “________” 73. What did the monkey and the elephant argue over?（不超过10个词） ___________________________________________ 74. Why did the monkey freeze when he reached the bank?（不超过10个词） ___________________________________________ 75. What did the owl probably say to the monkey and the elephant at last?（不超过15个词） ___________________________________________ 【答案】73. They argued about what was key to success. 74. Because the river was too deep and wide. 75. Teamwork and working together are important. 【解析】 【导语】本文通过猴子和大象争论敏捷与力量哪个更重要，最终发现只有合作才能成功，说明团队合作的重要性。 【73题详解】 第二段指出：“The monkey argued that being fast and agile was key to success. The elephant disagreed. He believed that strength mattered much more.” 因此，他们争论的是敏捷与力量哪个更重要。 【74题详解】 第四段提到：“When the two reached the bank, the monkey froze—It was too deep and too wide for him to cross.”，直接说明原因：猴子到达河岸时呆住是因为河水对他来说太深太宽了，无法穿过。 【75题详解】 故事中他们通过合作才摘到果子，猫头鹰的用意是让他们明白合作的重要性。所以可能会说：“团队合作以及协同工作是重要的。” 第四部分 写（共两大题，满分25分） Ⅸ.单词拼写（共5小题；每小题1分，满分5分） 根据首字母及汉语提示，完成下列单词的拼写，使句意明确，语言通顺。 76.

There is even a catchy name for it: twalking. It’s dangerous to twalk. People who stare (盯着看) at their phones while walking can easily run into an object or person, trip over something or fall. Some people say twalkers should be fined (罚款). They argue that their behavior is just as dangerous as drunk driving. Others disagree. They say handing out fines is going a step too far. Which side are you on? If you’re looking at your phone while walking, you’re clearly putting yourself and others at risk. Fining twalkers would make people take the danger more seriously. Just think about how many people didn’t wear seatbelts until it was required by law. Studies have shown that spending too much time on our phones isn’t good for our health. If people stop twalking, they’ll look up, look around and enjoy the world around them. Twalking is a bad habit and can be dangerous. However, I don’t think fines are the answer. Leaders should instead come up with creative ways to make streets safer. For example, a city in Poland added traffic lights to the sidewalk. This allows people to see the signals (信号) even if they are looking down. More importantly, people should learn to be responsible citizens on their own. They shouldn’t need to be fined to know when to put their phones away. 56. What does the underlined word “twalking” refer to? A Driving after drinking. B. Texting while walking. C. Looking around while walking. D. Running into objects on the street. 57. What is Anthony Lin’s opinion about fining twalkers? A. She thinks it is unnecessary. B. She argues that it is as dangerous as drunk driving. C. She suggests using creative ways instead of fines. D. She believes it can make people take the danger more seriously. 58. Which of the following would Hasan Walker probably agree with? A. Twalking should be completely stopped by law. B. People need fines to know when to put phones away. C. Creative methods should be used to improve street safety. D. The laws about twalking are very effective now. B I’ve been interested in nature since I was little. Every weekend, I’d borrow many books about animals from the library. I dreamed of following in Jane Goodall’s footsteps, going away for years to live in the wild and study animals. Over the years, I’ve changed in many ways, but my love of nature has never gone. When I entered high school last year, I joined the Science Olympiad team. The old sense of wonder when studying animals came back. Every day brings new adventures. One day, I might be exploring the birth of the universe; the next, I could be studying the rocks under my feet. I’m lucky to have so many amazing teammates. Together, we’ve run tests to make the design of our model car perfect. We’ve pretended (假装) to be forensic scientists (法医), solving “crimes” (犯罪) by studying different objects. I was used to working alone. I once thought a team could succeed only if everyone was an expert. Working with my teammates has changed my mind. As the old saying goes, “Many hands make light work.” No great progress has been made alone. It always takes thousands of people—working together—to make the impossible possible. I am eager (渴望) for my next science adventure. But unlike before, I now know that I won’t be an explorer alone. My teammates will be by my side, learning and growing with me. 59. What did the writer often do on weekends when he was little? A. He often went to the wild to study animals. B. He often joined the Science Olympiad team. C. He often worked with his teammates to solve problems. D. He often borrowed as many animal books as possible from the library. 60 When did the writer join the Science Olympiad team? A. When he was in primary school. B. When he had the dream of following Jane Goodall. C. When he entered high school last year. D. After he had his next science adventure. 61. What does the old saying “Many hands make light work” mean in the passage? A. Only experts can make a team successful. B Working alone is better than working with others. C.

E For the past eighteen years of my life, I’ve always celebrated the Mid-Autumn Festival with my family. However, this will be the first year that I spend the Mid-Autumn Festival away from them. To help reduce some of the homesickness, my friends and I are planning to attend a full-moon-themed party in New York City’s Chinatown. Even though the party is a few days after the Mid-Autumn Festival, I’m sure it will still be fun. I’m really touched that my friends suggested this especially since none of them are from Asian countries. I can’t wait to show them how much fun this Chinese festival is. As a newcomer to the US, I miss my family a lot, but I know I have to get used to not being able to see them when I want. It’s part of growing up. At the same time, I’m looking forward to spending the Mid-Autumn Festival with my friends. Even though we’ve only known each other for a month, I already consider them family. If, like me, you feel homesick in the Mid-Autumn Festival, hanging out with a couple of close friends will be a good choice. It’s easy to become busy with school life, so having a small get-together will be a great way to take a break from your heavy schoolwork, chat with friends, and admire the moon on this special day. 70. Which word can best describe the feeling of the writer in Paragraph 1? A. Nervous. B. Lonely. C. Embarrassed. D. Ashamed. 71. What warms the writer’s heart? A. Meeting old friends in Chinatown. B.

But one day, the two had a disagreement. The monkey argued (争论) that being fast and agile (敏捷的) was key to success. The elephant disagreed. He believed that strength mattered much more. So they turned to the wise owl for help. After listening, the owl pointed to a shiny fruit at the top of a tall tree across the river. “Bring me that fruit,” he said. “And then I’ll answer your question.” They set off. When the two reached the bank, the monkey froze (呆住)—It was too deep and too wide for him to cross. The elephant, however, rushed forward and easily got to the tree. But when he tried to reach the fruit, he found it was too high. The elephant had no choice but to return to the riverbank to ask the monkey for help. Once they reached the tree, the monkey climbed it and picked the fruit. Then they made their way back. The owl asked, “Of the two of you, which one brought fruit to me?” The monkey proudly said, “I did! I climbed the tree and picked it.” The elephant argued, “No, I did!
