B One sunny weekend, Lucy’s aunt came to visit and brought her a small plant in a pot. “This is a jasmine plant,” her aunt said with a warm smile. “If you take good care of it, it will grow and bloom (开花) beautiful white flowers with the sweetest fragrance (芬芳).” Lucy stared at the tiny green leaves, feeling doubtful. “But I don’t know how to keep plants,” she said. “What if it dies?” Her aunt gently patted her shoulder. “Don’t worry. Just water it a little every morning and make sure it gets enough sunlight. Plants teach us patience and responsibility. Watching something grow because of your care is one of life’s greatest joys.” Though not sure, Lucy decided to try. She put the plant near her window where there was sunlight. Every morning, she carefully poured a small cup of water over the soil. Weeks passed, but the plant remained the same—just a few small leaves and no flowers. Lucy sighed (叹息). “Maybe it’ll never bloom.” One evening, her mother noticed Lucy’s disappointment. “Growing plants is like watching a story unfold,” she said. “You can’t rush the ending. Just wait a little longer.” Encouraged, Lucy kept taking care of the plant. Then one day, she saw small white buds (花蕾) on the plant! After a few more days, the buds opened into pretty white flowers, filling her room with a soft, sweet fragrance. Lucy’s heart filled with pride. When her aunt visited again, Lucy led her to the flowers and said, “Look! It bloomed!” Her aunt’s eyes sparkled. “You did a wonderful job,” she said. “This is the gift of patience and care.” Lucy smiled. She learned that some of the best things in life take time—and effort makes them even sweeter. 34．What does the underlined word “it” refer to in paragraph 2? A．The sunlight. B．The fragrance. C．The small pot. D．The jasmine plant. 35．Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage? A．The plant bloomed quickly. B．Lucy’s mother gave her the plant. C．Lucy learned patience from the experience. D．Lucy’s aunt gave her a book about planting. 36．How did Lucy feel when the plant didn’t bloom for weeks? A．She was disappointed and doubtful. B．She was excited to try new methods. C．She was angry at her aunt’s gift. D．She was happy that it was still alive. 37．What is the best title for this passage? A．How to Grow Healthy Plants B．The Sweet Smell of the Jasmine C．Patience Makes Flowers Bloom D．Lucy’s First Gardening Experience C There’s a long list of unpleasant things about flying on planes, like waiting in line and sitting in the middle seat. And here’s another one that troubles a lot or us: getting blocked (堵住的) ears. It’s also sometimes called “airplane ear”. But why do we get it? It happens because of changes in air pressure. When a plane takes off and moves higher, the air pressure outside our ears goes down quickly because the air is thinner at higher places. However, there is still air from ground level inside our ears. This air is thicker and at a higher pressure. So there is a difference in pressure between the air inside our ears and outside our ears. Air pressure changes can make the air in our ears push on the eardrum (耳膜). This happens because air moves from high-pressure areas to low-pressure ones. The pressure makes our ears feel blocked. When the air comes out, our ears “pop” and feel normal again. So how to deal with it? Drinking water, swallowing (吞咽) or eating hard sweets can help to clear our ears. The air inside our ears is in the eustachian tube (咽鼓管), which connects the middle ear to the back of the nose and throat. Swallowing helps encourage this tube to open a little wider, which helps let out the air inside our ears. However, swallowing don’t always work. Our ears sometimes stay blocked for longer, which may hurt. If your ears take a really long time to clear even when you get off the plane, you may need to see a doctor. 38．What causes the feeling of blocked ears during a flight? A．The loud sound from the airplane. B．Air pressure changes around the ears. C．Too much water drunk before flying. D．The low temperature inside the airplane. 39．What is the correct order of how airplane ear happens? a. The eardrum is pushed by the higher-pressure air inside the ear. b. The air pressure outside the ear drops as the plane climbs. c. The ears feel blocked until the air inside is let out. d. There is a difference in pressure between the inside and outside of the ear. A．b→d→a→c B．b→d→c→a C．a→c→b→d D．a→c→d→b 40．Why does swallowing help unblock ears? A．It helps cool down the eardrum faster. B．It helps raise the air pressure in the ears. C．It helps lower the noise inside the airplane. D．It helps open the eustachian tube to let out the air. 41．What is the main purpose of this passage? A．To advise people to avoid taking planes B．To introduce the structure of the human ears. C．To list problems people may have when flying. D．To explain the causes and solutions of airplane ear. D When it comes to Chinese literature works about a mother’s love, few can compete with Tang Dynasty poet Meng Jiao’s poem Song of the Travelling Son. The poem presents a mother who sews clothes for her son by hand. Bathed in candlelight, she also worries about his travel away from home. Meng’s description of the mother shows the composition of the earliest form of the Chinese character “劳”. Found on oracle bones (甲骨) from over 3, 000 years ago, it was made up of two characters. There was “火 (fire)” on top and “衣 (clothes)” below, with three dots (点) that look like stitches. The lower part was later replaced by “力 (strength)” and a form symbolizing a house appeared above. The Analytical Dictionary of Chinese Characters explains the form as “When a house is on fire, it takes hard work to, put it out.” While the form of the character has been simplified, its meaning has spread to refer to work, labor (劳动) or toil. It is also connected with feelings like tiredness. Since ancient times, Chinese society has looked down upon those who sponge off others. In modern times, the idea that “labor is glorious (光荣的)” has taken root. People who work hard and make great contributions to their community or country are respected as model workers. Since the 1980s, “劳” has become one of the five key qualities that China's education system seeks to cultivate in students, along with “德 (virtue)” “智 (intelligence)” “体 (physical fitness)” and “美 (appreciation for beauty)”. Primary and middle school students typically have at least one hour of “labor class” each week for labor knowledge and skills. However, cognitive (认知的) labor and manual (体力的) labor are not always considered equal. As ancient Chinese philosopher Mencius said, “Those who labor with their minds govern (统治), while those who labor with their strength are governed.” Throughout history, many Chinese writers have had pity on people who worked hard to survive as poor farmers. In his poem Watching the Wheat Harvest, famous poet Bai Juyi expressed his shame at taking hundreds of kilograms of grain every year as his pay without doing any farm work. No matter it is cognitive labor or manual labor, overwork can have serious results, which can cause illness or even death. To avoid such things, people are encouraged to achieve a balance between work and rest. 42．Which of the following is the earliest form of the Chinese character “劳” ? A． B． C． D． 43．What does the underlined phrase “sponge off” in Paragraph 3 mean in the passage? A．depend on B．laugh at C．care about D．learn from 44．What can you learn from the passage? A．Cognitive labor is considered to be equal to manual labor. B．The character “劳” meant getting tired in the very beginning. C．Chinese students are expected to have the five key qualities. D．Bai Juyi took grain every year as his pay without doing any farm work. 45．The main purpose of this passage is to _________. A．discuss the different types of labor in China B．explore the cultural meaning of labor in China C．introduce the history of the Chinese character “劳” D．compare ancient and modern Chinese literature works 第二节 请认真阅读下面短文，从短文后所给的六个选项中选出五个可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 Some children think writers are great and they can tell people a lot. 46 They mean that they want to write stories or books which many people will read. I would like to remind them that they will need to be good readers in order to be good writers. 47 Nearly all great writers read too long before they started school. They always read for hours and hours every day since they became good readers. 48 They seldom watch TV at night. Sometimes they even read while they eat. 49 Because you read so well, you keep looking for more books to read. When you read more without thinking, you will feel that you know a lot, but when you read and think more, you will see clearly that you know very little. 50 This is the relationship between reading and writing. While making up your mind to become a good writer, you had better say to yourself, “I must read more and more if I am really to become a good writer.” A．They spend much of their spare time reading books. B．If you are a good reader, you must read with your thinking. C．That is to say that they need to read a lot. D．If you want to be a good writer, you should write while you read. E．Only by reading more books can you become a good writer. F．So they also wish to be writers someday. 第Ⅱ卷(非选择题 共55分) 第Ⅱ卷共26小题，请将答案按要求写在答题卡上。 四、词汇运用(本题共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分) 请认真阅读下面短文，根据语篇内容，在空白处填入括号内单词的正确形式，使短文通顺、连贯。 Traffic School Have you ever driven through a red traffic light? Have you ever parked in the wrong place or driven 51 (fast) than the speed limit (限制)? The answers are probably “yes”. Every year 52 (thousand) of drivers become “offenders”-they break the rules of the road. But 53 are the punishments for this offence? In most countries drivers have to pay a fine (罚款), 54 (usual) $100—$300. But in the USA, Australia and some 55 (Europe) countries offenders also get points on their driving license. After they get 56 certain number of points, they can’t drive. Life is difficult when you can’t drive. So far some states in the USA 57 (introduce) a new way to avoid this-Traffic School. Offenders have a choice: They can get points on their license 58 they can do a course at Traffic School. Traffic Schools run “driver improvement courses”. They cost about $100 and take from four 59 twelve hours. Most people do the course in a classroom, but in some states drivers can do the course online. Drivers learn the rules of the road and they learn how 60 (be) better drivers. They don’t have to take a driving test, but at the end of the course they have to pass a written examination. 五、短文填空(本题共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分) 请认真阅读下面短文，并根据各题所给首字母的提示，写出一个合适的英语单词完整、正确的形式，使短文通顺。 Known as the birthplace of kites, Weifang in Shandong province has a long history of making kites. D 61 the Ming Dynasty (1368—1644), kites became popular among common people for entertainment. Made from bamboo and decorated with traditional Chinese paintings, Weifang kite—making was included in the national - level intangible cultural heritage（文化遗产）list in 2006. The International Kite Festival is h 62 in Weifang each year. Yang Hongwei, 56, is an inheritor (传承人) of the Weifang kite—making technique (技艺).Born into a kite—making family, Yang often saw kites with bright colors and different s 63 like eagles, worms, flowers and so on in her grandfather’s workshop. “My boredom and bad feelings go away w 64 I see these beautiful kites,” said Yang. Yang learned the technique from her grandfather at the age of 16. After practicing the technique for 10 years, she started her o 65 shop in 1992. “Many places around the world have a tradition of flying kites,” Yang said. “But I think the cultural context (背景) behind our kite is s 66 ” On Yang’s kites, people can see not only common patterns (图案) like butterflies and swallows, but also some prints telling Chinese myths (神话), tales and h 67 .For example, she once made a kite showing a phoenix (凤凰) that was lined with pictures of 50 famous women from Chinese history on each side. Yang said that each woman is different in look,clothes and make up style. To c 68 their portraits（肖像）, she made lots of effort to check historical records and talking about details with professionals. “it took me a lot of time,” Yang said, “but when I explain the stories of the kites to non—Chinese people, I feel a great sense of achievement.” In her free time, she travels to different c 69 including Germany, Australia, the United States and New Zealand to tell people stories of Chinese kites and the traditional ways they are made. ‘‘It is an important job of mine, to s 70 our culture around the world and on to the next generation,” she said. Influenced by her, more and more teenagers have become interested in this traditional technique. 六、阅读与回答问题(本题共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分) 请认真阅读下面短文，并根据短文内容回答问题。 “Look in my eyes. Tell me why.” Have you found yourself listening to “ancient people” online recently? Creative vloggers (视频博主) are using AI technology to bring famous people from history like Tang Dynasty poets Li Bai and Du Fu “back to life”. These videos have become popular, showing these ancient icons speaking in modern language. In one video, Du Fu talks about his experience during the An-Shi Rebellion (755—763). In another, Ming Dynasty medical expert (专家) Li Shizhen makes fun of modern lifestyles like trying to be healthy by drinking goji berry (枸杞) water but still staying up late. “These videos make me want to learn more about important ancient people. I didn’t know much about their stories before,” said Wang Jiayi, 15, from Shandong. The new trend isn’t for everyone, however. The way these ancient people speak, in high tones (声调) and always asking questions, annoys (使心烦) some people. “They’re too pushy (压迫感的), which is different from how they really were,” said 14-year-old Wang Shutong from Jiangsu. Xia Boen, 14, from Hubei, felt the same.

A．Since B．Unless C．When D．Although 【答案】A 【详解】句意：既然这个方法不行，我们试试另一个吧。 考查连词辨析。Since自从/既然；Unless除非；When当……时；Although尽管。根据“this method doesn’t work, let’s try another one.”可知，前后句是因果关系，“这个方法不行”是后句“我们试试另一个”的原因，前后句是因果关系，应选用表示原因的连词“既然”。故选A。 5．The students stopped talking _________ the teacher came into the classroom.

A．What B．When C．Why D．How 【答案】D 【详解】句意：——你现在感觉怎么样，大明？——妈妈，我吃了药之后好多了。 考查特殊疑问句。What什么；When何时；Why为什么；How如何。根据答句“I am much better”可知，问句是询问身体状况或感受，应用“How”提问。故选D。 9．—When is the school sports meeting? —It will be held on time if it ________ next Friday. A．isn’t rain B．won’t rain C．doesn’t rain D．hasn’t rain 【答案】C 【详解】句意：——学校运动会什么时候举行？——如果下周五不下雨，就会按时举行。 考查if引导的条件状语从句的时态用法。根据“—When is school the sports meeting? —It will be held on time if it…next Friday.”可知，在if引导的条件状语从句中，主句用一般将来时 (will be held)，从句需用一般现在时表示将来。rain是动词，否定形式需借助助动词doesn’t。故选C。 10．—I think it’s difficult to write the English report in two days.

A．who B．what C．which D．/ 【答案】D 【详解】句意：——多么愉快的扬州之行！——是的，我永远不会忘记我在这里参观过的朋友和名胜。 考查定语从句引导词。分析句子结构可知，“...

A．made up B．taken up C．set up D．looked up 【答案】B 【详解】句意：恐怕李雷抽不出一整天的时间去郊游。他的时间完全被游戏占据了。 考查动词短语。made up化妆，编造；taken up占据；set up建立；looked up查阅。根据“cannot spare a whole day for outing”可知，此处应该表达他的时间完全被游戏占据了。故选B。 13．Lucy had few close friends at school, so she didn’t know ________ about the trouble. A．what to speak B．who to say C．what to talk D．who to talk to 【答案】D 【详解】句意：露西几乎没有亲密的朋友。因此她不知道跟谁谈论她的烦恼。 考查疑问词+动词不定式的用法。what to speak说什么；who to say对谁说；what to talk谈论什么；who to talk to和谁交谈。根据“Lucy had few close friends”可知，这里是指不知道该和谁谈论这个问题，特殊疑问词应用who；此处是talk to sb. about sth.结构，talk后面的介词to不能省略，故选D。 14．—Mum’s birthday is coming. What will you buy for her? —I’m not sure. Anyway, I will find __________. A．enough good something B．something good enough C．something enough good D．good something enough 【答案】B 【详解】句意：——妈妈的生日快到了。你要给她买什么？——我不确定。不管怎样，我会找到足够好的东西。 考查不定代词与形容词修饰语顺序。英语语法规则中，形容词修饰不定代词时应后置，且程度副词enough需放在形容词后，所以正确语序应为“something good enough”，故选B。 15．—I am sorry that what I did was not helpful at all. —________. I think it was the most valuable. A．Not at all B．Don’t mention it C．Sure it was D．Thanks anyway 【答案】A 【详解】句意：——我很抱歉，我所做的毫无帮助。——并不是。我觉得这是最有价值的。 考查交际用语。Not at all并不是；Don’t mention it不客气；Sure it was肯定是；Thanks anyway还是谢谢你。由答语后半句“I think it was the most valuable.”可知，空格处是在否定对方的说法，强调对方的帮助是有用的。故选A。 二、完形填空(本题共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分) 请认真阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 Can you imagine that a 14-year-old boy goes to university?

Just water it a little every morning and make sure it gets enough sunlight. Plants teach us patience and responsibility. Watching something grow because of your care is one of life’s greatest joys.” Though not sure, Lucy decided to try. She put the plant near her window where there was sunlight. Every morning, she carefully poured a small cup of water over the soil. Weeks passed, but the plant remained the same—just a few small leaves and no flowers. Lucy sighed (叹息). “Maybe it’ll never bloom.” One evening, her mother noticed Lucy’s disappointment. “Growing plants is like watching a story unfold,” she said. “You can’t rush the ending. Just wait a little longer.” Encouraged, Lucy kept taking care of the plant. Then one day, she saw small white buds (花蕾) on the plant! After a few more days, the buds opened into pretty white flowers, filling her room with a soft, sweet fragrance. Lucy’s heart filled with pride. When her aunt visited again, Lucy led her to the flowers and said, “Look! It bloomed!” Her aunt’s eyes sparkled. “You did a wonderful job,” she said. “This is the gift of patience and care.” Lucy smiled. She learned that some of the best things in life take time—and effort makes them even sweeter. 34．What does the underlined word “it” refer to in paragraph 2? A．The sunlight. B．The fragrance.

And here’s another one that troubles a lot or us: getting blocked (堵住的) ears. It’s also sometimes called “airplane ear”. But why do we get it? It happens because of changes in air pressure. When a plane takes off and moves higher, the air pressure outside our ears goes down quickly because the air is thinner at higher places. However, there is still air from ground level inside our ears. This air is thicker and at a higher pressure. So there is a difference in pressure between the air inside our ears and outside our ears. Air pressure changes can make the air in our ears push on the eardrum (耳膜). This happens because air moves from high-pressure areas to low-pressure ones. The pressure makes our ears feel blocked. When the air comes out, our ears “pop” and feel normal again. So how to deal with it? Drinking water, swallowing (吞咽) or eating hard sweets can help to clear our ears. The air inside our ears is in the eustachian tube (咽鼓管), which connects the middle ear to the back of the nose and throat. Swallowing helps encourage this tube to open a little wider, which helps let out the air inside our ears. However, swallowing don’t always work. Our ears sometimes stay blocked for longer, which may hurt. If your ears take a really long time to clear even when you get off the plane, you may need to see a doctor. 38．What causes the feeling of blocked ears during a flight? A．The loud sound from the airplane. B．Air pressure changes around the ears. C．Too much water drunk before flying. D．The low temperature inside the airplane. 39．What is the correct order of how airplane ear happens? a. The eardrum is pushed by the higher-pressure air inside the ear. b. The air pressure outside the ear drops as the plane climbs. c. The ears feel blocked until the air inside is let out. d. There is a difference in pressure between the inside and outside of the ear. A．b→d→a→c B．b→d→c→a C．a→c→b→d D．a→c→d→b 40．Why does swallowing help unblock ears? A．It helps cool down the eardrum faster. B．It helps raise the air pressure in the ears. C．It helps lower the noise inside the airplane. D．It helps open the eustachian tube to let out the air. 41．What is the main purpose of this passage? A．To advise people to avoid taking planes B．To introduce the structure of the human ears. C．To list problems people may have when flying. D．To explain the causes and solutions of airplane ear. 【答案】38．B 39．A 40．D 41．D 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了乘坐飞机时耳朵被堵住的原因和解决方法。 38．细节理解题。根据“It happens because of changes in air pressure.”可知，飞机飞行时耳朵被堵住是因为耳朵周围的气压变化。故选B。 39．细节理解题。根据“When a plane takes off and moves higher, the air pressure outside our ears goes down quickly because the air is thinner at higher places…The pressure makes our ears feel blocked. When the air comes out, our ears “pop” and feel normal again.”可知，飞机耳发生的正确顺序是：随着飞机爬升，耳朵外的气压下降；耳朵内外存在压力差；耳膜被耳朵内的高压空气挤压；直到耳朵内的空气排出，耳朵才感到堵塞。因此，正确的顺序是b→d→a→c。故选A。 40．细节理解题。根据“Swallowing helps encourage this tube to open a little wider, which helps let out the air inside our ears.”可知，吞咽有助于打开咽鼓管以排出空气，从而帮助耳朵通气。故选D。 41．主旨大意题。通读全文可知，文章主要解释了飞机耳产生的原因以及解决方法。因此，文章的主要目的是解释飞机耳的原因和解决方法。故选D。 D When it comes to Chinese literature works about a mother’s love, few can compete with Tang Dynasty poet Meng Jiao’s poem Song of the Travelling Son. The poem presents a mother who sews clothes for her son by hand. Bathed in candlelight, she also worries about his travel away from home. Meng’s description of the mother shows the composition of the earliest form of the Chinese character “劳”. Found on oracle bones (甲骨) from over 3, 000 years ago, it was made up of two characters. There was “火 (fire)” on top and “衣 (clothes)” below, with three dots (点) that look like stitches. The lower part was later replaced by “力 (strength)” and a form symbolizing a house appeared above. The Analytical Dictionary of Chinese Characters explains the form as “When a house is on fire, it takes hard work to, put it out.” While the form of the character has been simplified, its meaning has spread to refer to work, labor (劳动) or toil. It is also connected with feelings like tiredness. Since ancient times, Chinese society has looked down upon those who sponge off others. In modern times, the idea that “labor is glorious (光荣的)” has taken root. People who work hard and make great contributions to their community or country are respected as model workers. Since the 1980s, “劳” has become one of the five key qualities that China's education system seeks to cultivate in students, along with “德 (virtue)” “智 (intelligence)” “体 (physical fitness)” and “美 (appreciation for beauty)”. Primary and middle school students typically have at least one hour of “labor class” each week for labor knowledge and skills. However, cognitive (认知的) labor and manual (体力的) labor are not always considered equal. As ancient Chinese philosopher Mencius said, “Those who labor with their minds govern (统治), while those who labor with their strength are governed.” Throughout history, many Chinese writers have had pity on people who worked hard to survive as poor farmers. In his poem Watching the Wheat Harvest, famous poet Bai Juyi expressed his shame at taking hundreds of kilograms of grain every year as his pay without doing any farm work. No matter it is cognitive labor or manual labor, overwork can have serious results, which can cause illness or even death. To avoid such things, people are encouraged to achieve a balance between work and rest. 42．Which of the following is the earliest form of the Chinese character “劳” ? A． B． C． D． 43．What does the underlined phrase “sponge off” in Paragraph 3 mean in the passage? A．depend on B．laugh at C．care about D．learn from 44．What can you learn from the passage? A．Cognitive labor is considered to be equal to manual labor. B．The character “劳” meant getting tired in the very beginning. C．Chinese students are expected to have the five key qualities. D．Bai Juyi took grain every year as his pay without doing any farm work. 45．The main purpose of this passage is to _________. A．discuss the different types of labor in China B．explore the cultural meaning of labor in China C．introduce the history of the Chinese character “劳” D．compare ancient and modern Chinese literature works 【答案】42．B 43．A 44．C 45．B 【导语】本文围绕汉字“劳”展开，介绍其字形演变，意义及相关观念。 42．细节理解题、根据“There was “火” on top and “衣” below, with three dots that look like stitches.”可知，“劳”最早字形是在甲骨文中发现，由“火”在上面，“衣”在下面，还有像针脚的三个点组成，选项B符合描述。故选B。 43．词句猜测题。根句“Chinese society has looked down upon those who sponge off others.”和“People who work hard and make great contributions to their community or country are respected as model workers.”可知，此处表达中国社会从古至今都看不起那些“sponge off”他人的人，尊重那些努力工作的人，由此推断“sponge off”是指依赖他人、不劳而获，选项中“depend on”意为“依赖”，意思相符。故选A。 44．细节理解题。根据 “Since the 1980s, ‘劳’ has become one of the five key qualities that China’s education system seeks to cultivate in students, along with ‘德 (virtue)’‘智 (intelligence)’‘体 (physical fitness)’ and ‘美 (appreciation for beauty)’.”可知，中国期望学生具备这五种关键品质。故选C。 45．主旨大意题。通读全文内容可知，文章主要围绕汉字“劳”，介绍其字形演变、文化意义，以及在中国教育、社会观念等方面体现的文化内涵，选项B“探索中国劳动的文化意义”符合全文主旨。故选B。 第二节 请认真阅读下面短文，从短文后所给的六个选项中选出五个可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 Some children think writers are great and they can tell people a lot. 46 They mean that they want to write stories or books which many people will read. I would like to remind them that they will need to be good readers in order to be good writers. 47 Nearly all great writers read too long before they started school. They always read for hours and hours every day since they became good readers. 48 They seldom watch TV at night. Sometimes they even read while they eat. 49 Because you read so well, you keep looking for more books to read. When you read more without thinking, you will feel that you know a lot, but when you read and think more, you will see clearly that you know very little. 50 This is the relationship between reading and writing. While making up your mind to become a good writer, you had better say to yourself, “I must read more and more if I am really to become a good writer.” A．They spend much of their spare time reading books. B．If you are a good reader, you must read with your thinking. C．That is to say that they need to read a lot. D．If you want to be a good writer, you should write while you read. E．Only by reading more books can you become a good writer. F．So they also wish to be writers someday. 【答案】46．F 47．C 48．A 49．E 50．B 【导语】本文是一篇议论文，主要讲述了阅读与写作的关系，强调成为优秀作家需要大量阅读和思考。 46．根据“Some children think writers are great…they want to write stories or books which many people will read”可推知，孩子们认为作家很伟大，能告诉人们很多东西，他们想写很多人会读的故事或书。选项F“所以他们也希望有一天能成为作家。”起到因果衔接的作用，解释孩子的愿望，符合语境。故选F。 47．根据“I would like to remind them that they will need to be good readers in order to be good writers”可推知，这意味着需要大量阅读，选项C“也就是说，他们需要大量阅读。”符合语境。故选C。 48．根据“They always read for hours and hours every day”可推知，作家把大量业余时间用于阅读，选项A“他们把大部分业余时间都用来读书。”符合语境。故选A。 49．根据“When you read more without thinking…but when you read and think more…”可推知，优秀的读者需要带着思考阅读，选项E“只有读更多书你才能成为好作家。”引出后文关于阅读量和思考的内容 ，符合语境。故选E。 50．前文围绕阅读时思考与否展开，选项B“如果你是一个好读者，你必须带着思考去阅读。”总结了阅读与思考的关系，也呼应前文提到的阅读和写作的联系，符合语境。故选B。 第Ⅱ卷(非选择题 共55分) 第Ⅱ卷共26小题，请将答案按要求写在答题卡上。 四、词汇运用(本题共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分) 请认真阅读下面短文，根据语篇内容，在空白处填入括号内单词的正确形式，使短文通顺、连贯。 Traffic School Have you ever driven through a red traffic light?

Tell me why.” Have you found yourself listening to “ancient people” online recently? Creative vloggers (视频博主) are using AI technology to bring famous people from history like Tang Dynasty poets Li Bai and Du Fu “back to life”. These videos have become popular, showing these ancient icons speaking in modern language. In one video, Du Fu talks about his experience during the An-Shi Rebellion (755—763). In another, Ming Dynasty medical expert (专家) Li Shizhen makes fun of modern lifestyles like trying to be healthy by drinking goji berry (枸杞) water but still staying up late. “These videos make me want to learn more about important ancient people. I didn’t know much about their stories before,” said Wang Jiayi, 15, from Shandong. The new trend isn’t for everyone, however. The way these ancient people speak, in high tones (声调) and always asking questions, annoys (使心烦) some people. “They’re too pushy (压迫感的), which is different from how they really were,” said 14-year-old Wang Shutong from Jiangsu. Xia Boen, 14, from Hubei, felt the same. But he was surprised to find that he “remembered almost everything they said about their experiences and achievements” because of the speaking style in the videos. These videos use a more modern way to let ancient people “speak for themselves”. However, “we should be careful with these videos and make sure they are not sharing wrong information,” noted Nanfang Daily. 回答下面5个问题，每题答案不超过6个词。 71．How do creative vloggers bring ancient people “back to life”? 72．What does Li Shizhen do in one video? 73．What does Wang Shutong think of these ancient people in the videos? 74．Why did Xia Boen remember almost everything they said in the videos? 75．What should we teenagers do about these videos? 【答案】71．Using AI technology. 72．He makes fun of modern lifestyles. 73．They are too pushy. 74．Because of the speaking style. 75．Be careful with wrong information. 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了创意视频博主利用AI技术让杜甫等古代名人“复活”，视频受欢迎，有人因古人说话方式不满，有人因视频记住古人经历成就，且要注意视频可能存在分享错误信息的情况。 71．根据“Creative vloggers (视频博主) are using AI technology to bring famous people from history like Tang Dynasty poets Li Bai and Du Fu ‘back to life’.”可知，视频博主们正在利用人工智能技术让历史上的名人“起死回生”，故填Using AI technology. 72．根据“In another, Ming Dynasty medical expert (专家) Li Shizhen makes fun of modern lifestyles like trying to be healthy by drinking goji berry (枸杞) water but still staying up late.”可知，他取笑现在的生活方式，故填He makes fun of modern lifestyles. 73．根据“‘They’re too pushy (压迫感的), which is different from how they really were,’ said 14-year-old Wang Shutong from Jiangsu.”可知，认为他们太有压迫感，故填They are too pushy. 74．根据“But he was surprised to find that he ‘remembered almost everything they said about their experiences and achievements’ because of the speaking style in the videos.”可知，由于视频中的说话风格，他“几乎记住了他们所说的一切经历和成就”。故填Because of the speaking style. 75．根据“we should be careful with these videos and make sure they are not sharing wrong information”可知，我们应该小心这些视频，确保它们没有分享错误的信息，故填Be careful with wrong information. 七、书面表达(本题满分25分) 76．曾子曰：“吾日三省吾身：为人谋而不忠乎？与朋友交而不信乎？传不习乎？”习近平总书记在演讲中多次引用这句话，告诫青少年要勇于面对自己的缺点，在学习中求真务实。怎样成为更好的自己？请你根据以下内容提示，以“How to be a better teenager?”为题，用英语写一篇演讲稿，在毕业典礼上发言。 内容提示：1.养成健康的生活习惯。 2.学习有计划、有行动。 3.友善待人。 4.培养良好的兴趣爱好，参加志愿活动。 写作要求：1.内容必须包括所给要点，并适当发挥一至两点。 2.语句通顺，语法正确，书写规范。 3.文中不能出现考生的真实姓名、校名和地名。 4.不少于 90 词。（开头和结尾已给出，不计入总词数）。 参考词汇：培养爱好 take up hobbies 志愿活动 volunteer activity How to be a better teenager?

B One sunny weekend, Lucy’s aunt came to visit and brought her a small plant in a pot. “This is a jasmine plant,” her aunt said with a warm smile. “If you take good care of it, it will grow and bloom (开花) beautiful white flowers with the sweetest fragrance (芬芳).” Lucy stared at the tiny green leaves, feeling doubtful. “But I don’t know how to keep plants,” she said. “What if it dies?” Her aunt gently patted her shoulder. “Don’t worry. Just water it a little every morning and make sure it gets enough sunlight. Plants teach us patience and responsibility. Watching something grow because of your care is one of life’s greatest joys.” Though not sure, Lucy decided to try. She put the plant near her window where there was sunlight. Every morning, she carefully poured a small cup of water over the soil. Weeks passed, but the plant remained the same—just a few small leaves and no flowers. Lucy sighed (叹息). “Maybe it’ll never bloom.” One evening, her mother noticed Lucy’s disappointment. “Growing plants is like watching a story unfold,” she said. “You can’t rush the ending. Just wait a little longer.” Encouraged, Lucy kept taking care of the plant. Then one day, she saw small white buds (花蕾) on the plant! After a few more days, the buds opened into pretty white flowers, filling her room with a soft, sweet fragrance. Lucy’s heart filled with pride. When her aunt visited again, Lucy led her to the flowers and said, “Look! It bloomed!” Her aunt’s eyes sparkled. “You did a wonderful job,” she said. “This is the gift of patience and care.” Lucy smiled. She learned that some of the best things in life take time—and effort makes them even sweeter. 34．What does the underlined word “it” refer to in paragraph 2? A．The sunlight. B．The fragrance. C．The small pot. D．The jasmine plant. 35．Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage? A．The plant bloomed quickly. B．Lucy’s mother gave her the plant. C．Lucy learned patience from the experience. D．Lucy’s aunt gave her a book about planting. 36．How did Lucy feel when the plant didn’t bloom for weeks? A．She was disappointed and doubtful. B．She was excited to try new methods. C．She was angry at her aunt’s gift. D．She was happy that it was still alive. 37．What is the best title for this passage? A．How to Grow Healthy Plants B．The Sweet Smell of the Jasmine C．Patience Makes Flowers Bloom D．Lucy’s First Gardening Experience C There’s a long list of unpleasant things about flying on planes, like waiting in line and sitting in the middle seat. And here’s another one that troubles a lot or us: getting blocked (堵住的) ears. It’s also sometimes called “airplane ear”. But why do we get it? It happens because of changes in air pressure. When a plane takes off and moves higher, the air pressure outside our ears goes down quickly because the air is thinner at higher places. However, there is still air from ground level inside our ears. This air is thicker and at a higher pressure. So there is a difference in pressure between the air inside our ears and outside our ears. Air pressure changes can make the air in our ears push on the eardrum (耳膜). This happens because air moves from high-pressure areas to low-pressure ones. The pressure makes our ears feel blocked. When the air comes out, our ears “pop” and feel normal again. So how to deal with it? Drinking water, swallowing (吞咽) or eating hard sweets can help to clear our ears. The air inside our ears is in the eustachian tube (咽鼓管), which connects the middle ear to the back of the nose and throat. Swallowing helps encourage this tube to open a little wider, which helps let out the air inside our ears. However, swallowing don’t always work. Our ears sometimes stay blocked for longer, which may hurt. If your ears take a really long time to clear even when you get off the plane, you may need to see a doctor. 38．What causes the feeling of blocked ears during a flight? A．The loud sound from the airplane. B．Air pressure changes around the ears. C．Too much water drunk before flying. D．The low temperature inside the airplane. 39．What is the correct order of how airplane ear happens? a. The eardrum is pushed by the higher-pressure air inside the ear. b. The air pressure outside the ear drops as the plane climbs. c. The ears feel blocked until the air inside is let out. d. There is a difference in pressure between the inside and outside of the ear. A．b→d→a→c B．b→d→c→a C．a→c→b→d D．a→c→d→b 40．Why does swallowing help unblock ears? A．It helps cool down the eardrum faster. B．It helps raise the air pressure in the ears. C．It helps lower the noise inside the airplane. D．It helps open the eustachian tube to let out the air. 41．What is the main purpose of this passage? A．To advise people to avoid taking planes B．To introduce the structure of the human ears. C．To list problems people may have when flying. D．To explain the causes and solutions of airplane ear. D When it comes to Chinese literature works about a mother’s love, few can compete with Tang Dynasty poet Meng Jiao’s poem Song of the Travelling Son. The poem presents a mother who sews clothes for her son by hand. Bathed in candlelight, she also worries about his travel away from home. Meng’s description of the mother shows the composition of the earliest form of the Chinese character “劳”. Found on oracle bones (甲骨) from over 3, 000 years ago, it was made up of two characters. There was “火 (fire)” on top and “衣 (clothes)” below, with three dots (点) that look like stitches. The lower part was later replaced by “力 (strength)” and a form symbolizing a house appeared above. The Analytical Dictionary of Chinese Characters explains the form as “When a house is on fire, it takes hard work to, put it out.” While the form of the character has been simplified, its meaning has spread to refer to work, labor (劳动) or toil. It is also connected with feelings like tiredness. Since ancient times, Chinese society has looked down upon those who sponge off others. In modern times, the idea that “labor is glorious (光荣的)” has taken root. People who work hard and make great contributions to their community or country are respected as model workers. Since the 1980s, “劳” has become one of the five key qualities that China's education system seeks to cultivate in students, along with “德 (virtue)” “智 (intelligence)” “体 (physical fitness)” and “美 (appreciation for beauty)”. Primary and middle school students typically have at least one hour of “labor class” each week for labor knowledge and skills. However, cognitive (认知的) labor and manual (体力的) labor are not always considered equal. As ancient Chinese philosopher Mencius said, “Those who labor with their minds govern (统治), while those who labor with their strength are governed.” Throughout history, many Chinese writers have had pity on people who worked hard to survive as poor farmers. In his poem Watching the Wheat Harvest, famous poet Bai Juyi expressed his shame at taking hundreds of kilograms of grain every year as his pay without doing any farm work. No matter it is cognitive labor or manual labor, overwork can have serious results, which can cause illness or even death. To avoid such things, people are encouraged to achieve a balance between work and rest. 42．Which of the following is the earliest form of the Chinese character “劳” ? A． B． C． D． 43．What does the underlined phrase “sponge off” in Paragraph 3 mean in the passage? A．depend on B．laugh at C．care about D．learn from 44．What can you learn from the passage? A．Cognitive labor is considered to be equal to manual labor. B．The character “劳” meant getting tired in the very beginning. C．Chinese students are expected to have the five key qualities. D．Bai Juyi took grain every year as his pay without doing any farm work. 45．The main purpose of this passage is to _________. A．discuss the different types of labor in China B．explore the cultural meaning of labor in China C．introduce the history of the Chinese character “劳” D．compare ancient and modern Chinese literature works 第二节 请认真阅读下面短文，从短文后所给的六个选项中选出五个可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 Some children think writers are great and they can tell people a lot. 46 They mean that they want to write stories or books which many people will read. I would like to remind them that they will need to be good readers in order to be good writers. 47 Nearly all great writers read too long before they started school. They always read for hours and hours every day since they became good readers. 48 They seldom watch TV at night. Sometimes they even read while they eat. 49 Because you read so well, you keep looking for more books to read. When you read more without thinking, you will feel that you know a lot, but when you read and think more, you will see clearly that you know very little. 50 This is the relationship between reading and writing. While making up your mind to become a good writer, you had better say to yourself, “I must read more and more if I am really to become a good writer.” A．They spend much of their spare time reading books. B．If you are a good reader, you must read with your thinking. C．That is to say that they need to read a lot. D．If you want to be a good writer, you should write while you read.

D 61 the Ming Dynasty (1368—1644), kites became popular among common people for entertainment. Made from bamboo and decorated with traditional Chinese paintings, Weifang kite—making was included in the national - level intangible cultural heritage（文化遗产）list in 2006.

Tell me why.” Have you found yourself listening to “ancient people” online recently? Creative vloggers (视频博主) are using AI technology to bring famous people from history like Tang Dynasty poets Li Bai and Du Fu “back to life”. These videos have become popular, showing these ancient icons speaking in modern language. In one video, Du Fu talks about his experience during the An-Shi Rebellion (755—763). In another, Ming Dynasty medical expert (专家) Li Shizhen makes fun of modern lifestyles like trying to be healthy by drinking goji berry (枸杞) water but still staying up late. “These videos make me want to learn more about important ancient people. I didn’t know much about their stories before,” said Wang Jiayi, 15, from Shandong. The new trend isn’t for everyone, however. The way these ancient people speak, in high tones (声调) and always asking questions, annoys (使心烦) some people. “They’re too pushy (压迫感的), which is different from how they really were,” said 14-year-old Wang Shutong from Jiangsu. Xia Boen, 14, from Hubei, felt the same. But he was surprised to find that he “remembered almost everything they said about their experiences and achievements” because of the speaking style in the videos. These videos use a more modern way to let ancient people “speak for themselves”. However, “we should be careful with these videos and make sure they are not sharing wrong information,” noted Nanfang Daily. 回答下面5个问题，每题答案不超过6个词。 71．How do creative vloggers bring ancient people “back to life”? 72．What does Li Shizhen do in one video? 73．What does Wang Shutong think of these ancient people in the videos? 74．Why did Xia Boen remember almost everything they said in the videos? 75．What should we teenagers do about these videos? 七、书面表达(本题满分25分) 76．曾子曰：“吾日三省吾身：为人谋而不忠乎？与朋友交而不信乎？传不习乎？”习近平总书记在演讲中多次引用这句话，告诫青少年要勇于面对自己的缺点，在学习中求真务实。怎样成为更好的自己？请你根据以下内容提示，以“How to be a better teenager?”为题，用英语写一篇演讲稿，在毕业典礼上发言。 内容提示：1.养成健康的生活习惯。 2.学习有计划、有行动。 3.友善待人。 4.培养良好的兴趣爱好，参加志愿活动。 写作要求：1.内容必须包括所给要点，并适当发挥一至两点。 2.语句通顺，语法正确，书写规范。 3.文中不能出现考生的真实姓名、校名和地名。 4.不少于 90 词。（开头和结尾已给出，不计入总词数）。 参考词汇：培养爱好 take up hobbies 志愿活动 volunteer activity How to be a better teenager?
