Part 1: What you need ·Three fresh bread slices ·Water ·Zipper bags (one for each slice) ·A spray bottle ·Your hands (Don’t wash them yet! ) ·Things to test, like a phone Part 2: Do the test 1. Touch the bread: ·Slice 1: With your unwashed fingers ·Slice 2: With your phone. ·Slice 3: With someone else’s hands after using soap. 2. Make it wet. Lightly spray water on each slice to help mould (霉) grow. 3. Label: Put each slice in its own zipper bag. Seal and label it. 4. Store: Place the bags in a warm place at home. Part 3: Watch the test ·Check the bags daily for seven days. ·Compare the mould growth. What we learn The mould shows us the dirt on our hands and everyday objects.

Touch three bread slices in different ways. D. Label each bag with what the bread touched. 26. According to the test, the writer probably wants us to ________.

This is probably a page taken from ________. A. a storybook B. a novel C. a magazine D. a travel guide B Bedtime comes every night, but what if you’re not feeling sleepy? Should you still head to bed even if you know you’ll just lie there with your eyes open? This problem has been around for as long as people have been trying to get a good night’s sleep. In order to find the best solution for you, it’s necessary to find out what’s keeping you awake at night. You might be excited about something that happened during the day. Perhaps you’re nervous about what’s coming up the next day. Maybe you don’t like sleeping alone in your room. All of these could be reasons for your sleeping problems. However, there are several steps you can take to help you solve them. One thing that can help is talking to a parent or another trusted adult about what you’re worrying about at bedtime. For example, if you’re nervous about taking a test, or upset about having too much stress, it can really help to tell somebody. Knowing that someone has listened to you can ease (宽慰) your mind, helping you to get a good rest. Sleeping in a comfortable bed in a quiet and cool room is another good choice. If there’s anything in your room that makes you feel uneasy or anxious (焦虑的) at night, such as a picture that looks strange in the dark, or a noisy tap in the bathroom, be sure to ask your parents to move or fix it. Also, make sure to keep electronics like mobile phones or iPads away from your bed. They can keep you excited, and make it harder for you to fall asleep. If you are usually restless around bedtime, doing certain things to relax beforehand (预先) may help you fall asleep. Try to take more time to wind down by taking a warm bath, or listening to music for at least 10 minutes before you go to sleep. It’s also helpful to follow a bedtime routine (惯例) and go to sleep at the same time every night. This way, your body will receive the message that it’s almost time to sleep. Your body will learn to start feeling tired, and it’s worth the time and effort to develop a good sleeping habit. 28. To get a good sleep, what does the writer advise you to do first? A. To go to bed at a certain time every night. B To do something to make you tired in the day. C. To stay away from electronics before going to bed. D. To know the exact reason why you stay awake at night. 29. What is the main idea of paragraph 4? A. Create a good sleep environment. B. Keep the room quiet and cool. C. Make your bedroom comfortable. D. Stay away from electronics. 30. What does the underlined phrase “wind down” in Paragraph 5 probably mean? A. Stay awake. B. Keep clean. C. Get relaxed. D. Feel sleepy. C My five-year-old son befriends the woman. It starts with voices in the yard. When I come out to check on Daniel, his face is pressed on the fence (篱笆). The woman says, “You wait right here. I’ll be right back.” She returns with a saw (锯子). There’s a whirring. A circle in the wooden fence drops out of sight. “Dad! Sandy just drilled out a hole in the fence so Sandy and I can talk!” Daniel spins around. I hadn’t known her name was Sandy. We’ve lived here a month before Daniel was born. Daniel’s and Sandy’s murmuring voices continue. Whenever Daniel is outside, he circles near the fence that isn’t a fence any more. Some days my son just goes to stand at the hole, yelling, “Sandy! Saaaaandyyyyy!” Sometimes I hear bits of their talk. “We painted a ghost at school.” Or: ‘‘Wheeler and Jackson were playing football, and they told me I couldn’t play.” “That wasn’t very nice,” says Sandy. “Did that hurt your feelings? Did you let them know that?” I can’t hear how he replies. A moment of envy runs through me. He never talks about his school things with me. Daniel and Sandy not only keep chatting through the hole, they also exchange gifts. A coloring book, then a Hot Wheels car. It’s unclear what Daniel gives Sandy in return. One afternoon I hear Sandy’s voice floating over the top of the fence with the hole. “I thought maybe Daniel could come for a play date.” We ring the bell on Sandy’s porch She’s a middle-aged woman with smiling eyes. Sandy’s yard is sweet with the smell of flowers. We have a pleasant afternoon with Sandy, my son’s adult friend, the first friend Daniel has made on his own. We’ve passed through the hole in the fence. A month later, Sandy leaves to care for her mother in Kansas. She left behind a box of presents: a coloring book, sidewalk chalk, the missing orange part in the Hot Wheels track. When I look at Daniel, he’s looking down at his shoes. He sometimes wanders down to the fence. Instead of calling “Sandy! Saaaaandyyyyy!” he cries. “Hello! Helloooooo!” One day, Daniel receives Sandy’s postcard. They write frequently, warmly. 31. Which of the following is the correct order of the story? a. Sandy leaves for Kansas to care for her mother. b. Daniel and Sandy exchange gifts through the hole. c. Daniel and Sandy are good pen friends. d. Sandy drills out a hole in the fence. e. Sandy invites Daniel to come to her yard for a play date. A. dbeac B. badec C. dceab D. ecadb 32. What can we learn about Daniel from the underlined sentences in the story? A. He doesn’t care about Sandy’s leaving. B. He is impressed with the shoes from Sandy. C. He is heartbroken when hearing the news. D. He does not want to be Sandy’s friend any more. 33. Which can be the best title of the passage? A. A hole in the fence. B. Friendship beyond age. C. A nice neighbour. D. My son and I. D “It is especially beautiful. No matter who you are or what your age is, seeing something so fantastic is truly attractive,” said Jin Huilin, who was attracted by the rich patterns (花纹) when he saw Yuhua stones for the first time. Nanjing Yuhua stone is a type of water-worn stone mainly found in areas like Nanjing and Yizheng in Jiangsu Province. It is known for its smooth texture (质地), bright colours and rich patterns. Because Yuhua stones are often got from mines (矿山) , dry Yuhua stones look plain and grey, hiding their true quality. Jin and his friends visited Luhe mining sites in Nanjing, wearing rubber shoes to collect these stones on rainy days. Rain made the stones’ detailed patterns clearer. “It’s better to carry a bottle of water on dry days to pour on the surface of the stones. Sometimes you can find something surprising. “Jin said. According to Jin, appreciating (欣赏) stones starts with their outer qualities like texture, colour, and patterns. ①However, “real appreciation of the stones requires cultural knowledge; otherwise, they might seem like just pieces of colour,” said Jin. With cultural knowledge and imagination, people could see different patterns, such as trees, mountains, or flowers. “②The stones a person chooses as their favourites can show their cultural awareness,” Jin added. Watching patterns of stones in the water is not the only way to appreciate stones. Jin also mentioned other ways. ③He gave some examples. “Some people enjoy holding stones in their hands, appreciating their special textures, or using strong light to discover hidden patterns that are even more beautiful. Others choose to put the stones on the desk, inviting guests to appreciate the stones from different positions,” said Jin. ④ For Jin, stone watching brings joy and something fresh to his life. “Some people like to have lively pets while I prefer stones for their lasting nature.” Jin added. 34. The writer begins this article by ________. A. explaining an idea B. showing the reasons C. comparing differences D. telling someone’s opinion 35. Jin suggests carrying a bottle of water when collecting stones on dry days because ________. A. water can bring people good luck B. stones can avoid being polluted with water C. water can help find the stones’ true quality D. the weather makes people feel thirsty easily 36. The sentence “So, watching stones is, in some ways, watching oneself.” most probably comes from ________. A. ① B. ② C. ③ D. ④ 37. What can we know about Yuhua stones from the passage? A. Their true quality can be found easily on the surface. B. They can be found in most cities in Jiangsu Province. C. There are different patterns like mountains and flowers in them. D. The textures are seen more clearly in the water than with strong light. 第II卷 (非选择题 共50分) 四、词汇运用 (本大题共10小题，每小题1分，共10分) (A)根据句意和中文注释，在答题卡对应题号的横线上写出单词的正确形式。 38.

In different cultures, horses stand for similar things, but with occasional (偶尔的) exceptions. In China, the horse carries many positive meanings, such as smart and energetic, and we can see them in Chinese idioms. For example, a talented person is often called “qianlima”, a horse that covers a thousand li a day. And someone who is good at finding talent is referred to as “bole”, a person who could tell a good horse by its looks in ancient China. Other horse-related phrases in Chinese include “madaochenggong”, which means instant success and “longmajingshen”, which means full of energy. Horses are also said to have powerful brains with “excellent memories”, according to Discovery News. Maybe that’s why a Chinese idiom goes: “An old horse knows the way.” In other cultures, horses are also important and special. In the Middle Ages, the horse was a symbol of chivalry (骑士精神) and nobility (贵族) in Western societies. In fact, the word “chivalry” comes from the Old French word “cheval”, which meant horse. The idea of chivalry helped to shape the 19th-century image of the “gentleman”, which was known for good manners, courage and loyalty (忠诚) to friends. Since the horse is honored as a symbol of energy, loyalty, strong will and intelligence, people born in the Year of the Horse are also believed to have these great qualities. 58. What kind of person is often called “qianlima”? ____________________________ 59. Are horses also important and special in other cultures? ____________________________ 60. Where was the horse a symbol of chivalry and nobility? ____________________________ 61. What helped to shape the 19th-century image of the “gentleman”? ____________________________ 62. How do you like the people born in the Year of the Horse? (请自拟一句话作答) ____________________________ 七、书面表达(本大题共20分) 63. 假如你是李华，近期无锡中小学生将迎来为期三天的春假，这一举措在同学们中引发了广泛讨论。请你给学校英文校报写一篇短文，具体谈谈你的春假计划和安排，同时描述你对春假的想法。 注意事项： 1. 内容须涵盖所有要点，要求语句通顺、意思连贯、符合题意; 2. 词数不少于90个，开头已给出，不计入总词数; 3. 文中不得使用真实的个人姓名或学校名称; 4. 作文必须写在答题卡指定的位置上。 Primary and middle school students in Wuxi will have a 3-day spring holiday. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 锡北片2026年第一次模拟测试试卷 初三英语 2026.3 (时长：100 分钟 总分：100 分) 第I卷 (选择题 共50分) 一、单项选择 在A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。(本大题共14小题，每小题1分，共14分) 1. ________ attractive the cherry blossoms (樱花) in Wuxi’s Yuantouzhu are! A. How B. What an C. What D. How an 【答案】A 【解析】 【详解】句意：无锡鼋头渚的樱花多迷人啊！ How 用于引导以形容词/副词开头的感叹句；What an 用于引导以可数名词单数（元音音素开头）开头的感叹句；What 用于引导以名词开头的感叹句；How an 为错误表达；本句中心词是形容词“attractive”，需用“How + 形容词 + 主语 + 谓语！”的感叹句结构，“How”符合语法要求，应填How。 2. The cherry blossoms in Wuxi give people an early ________ of spring. A. sense B. theme C. result D. chance 【答案】A 【解析】 【详解】句意：无锡的樱花给人们带来早春的感觉。 sense感觉；theme主题；result结果；chance机会。根据语境可知，樱花给人们带来早春的感觉，应填sense。 3. —Many tourists would like to visit Wuxi for its beautiful Yuantouzhu. —Yes. It is ________ known all over the country. A. exactly B. widely C. hardly D. probably 【答案】B 【解析】 【详解】句意：——许多游客因为鼋头渚的美丽而想去无锡旅游。——是的，它在全国都广为人知。 exactly确切地；widely广泛地；hardly几乎不；probably可能。根据语境可知，此处指无锡在全国都广为人知，应填widely。 4.

A. because B. if C. since D. unless 【答案】D 【解析】 【详解】句意：你不会完全了解无锡的文化除非你亲自去那里。 because因为；if如果；since自从/既然；unless除非。根据句意可知，前后存在条件关系，表达“除非亲自去，否则就不能完全了解”，应填unless。 5. People can park on ________ side of the street in Wuxi, or they will be fined. A. either B. both C. neither D. none 【答案】C 【解析】 【详解】句意：在无锡，人们不允许在街道两侧停车，否则将被罚款。 either两者中的任意一个；both两者都；neither两者都不；none三者或三者以上都不。句中side为单数形式，排除修饰复数的both；none通常不直接修饰单数可数名词，排除D。根据后半句or they will be fined可知此处表示禁止停车，是否定含义，can...neither相当于cannot...either，符合语境。 6. — With Xiaohongshu, we know exactly where to “da ka”! —That’s right. We ________ get a guide any more. A. can’t B. shouldn’t C. mustn’t D. needn’t 【答案】D 【解析】 【详解】句意：——有了小红书，我们就清楚知道该去哪里打卡了！——没错。我们再也不需要找导游了。 can’t不能；shouldn’t不应该；mustn’t禁止；needn’t不必，不需要根据前句“With Xiaohongshu, we know exactly where to ‘da ka’!”可知，有了小红书就清楚打卡地点，因此再也“不需要”导游了，应填needn’t。 7. Let’s Go Now is a popular TV program. It shows ________ stories of stars travelling around China. A. real-life B. all-time C. well-paid D. high-speed 【答案】A 【解析】 【详解】句意：《现在就出发》是一档受欢迎的电视节目，它展示了明星们在中国旅行的真实故事。 考查复合形容词辨析。real-life真实的；all-time空前的；well-paid高薪的；high-speed高速的。根据“Let’s Go Now is a popular TV program. It shows…stories of stars travelling around China.”可知，电视节目通常展示明星旅行中的真实经历，因此用“real-life”修饰“stories”最符合逻辑。故选A。 8. Travelling is a good way to experience life ________ school and learn about the world. A over B. through C. beyond D. past 【答案】C 【解析】 【详解】句意：旅行是体验校园之外的生活、了解世界的好方式。 over在……上方；through穿过；beyond超出；past经过。根据“Travelling is a good way to experience life”可知表达学校范围以外的生活，应填beyond。 9. —Amy, I hear you are going to spend the summer holiday abroad. —I did consider it, but I have ________ the plan. Travelling around China means more to me. A. confirmed B. connected C. controlled D. cancelled 【答案】D 【解析】 【详解】句意：——艾米，我听说你打算暑假去国外。——我确实考虑过，但是我已经取消了这个计划。环游中国对我来说更有意义。 confirmed确认；connected联系；controlled控制；cancelled取消。根据“I did consider it”和“Travelling around China means more to me.”可知，原本的国外度假计划被取消了，应填cancelled。 10. —Leo, I know you love travelling. Could you tell me ________? —Yes, Amy. Don’t you remember the key ring of cherry blossoms I gave you last spring? A. if you have gone to Yuantouzhu B. when did you go to Yuantouzhu C. if you have been to Yuantouzhu D. when have you been to Yuantouzhu 【答案】C 【解析】 【详解】句意：——利奥，我知道你喜欢旅行。你能告诉我你是否去过鼋头渚吗？——是的，艾米。你不记得我去年春天给你的那个樱花钥匙圈了吗？ if you have gone to Yuantouzhu是否去了鼋头渚（未返回）；when did you go to Yuantouzhu什么时候去了鼋头渚（疑问语序）；if you have been to Yuantouzhu是否去过鼋头渚（已返回，强调经历）；when have you been to Yuantouzhu什么时候去过鼋头渚（疑问语序）。根据答语“the key ring of cherry blossoms I gave you last spring”可知，对方去过鼋头渚，因此问句应询问是否去过，用if引导宾语从句。have been to表示“去过某地”，符合经历询问；have gone to表示“去了某地未回”，不符合语境。B和D为疑问语序，宾语从句应用陈述语序。应填if you have been to Yuantouzhu。 11. What does the message on the right say? Amy Do you know today’s History homework? I’ve forgotten to write it down in my notebook. Leo A. Leo wants to copy Amy’s History homework. B. Leo doesn’t want to do the History homework. C. Leo wants to know what the History homework is. D. Leo has forgotten to finish his History homework. 【答案】C 【解析】 【详解】句意：右边的信息说了什么？“艾米 你知道今天的历史作业吗？我忘记把它记在笔记本上了。 利奥” 根据留言中“Do you know today’s History homework? I’ve forgotten to write it down in my notebook.”可知，里奥忘记记下作业，想知道作业内容。 12. If it ________ rainy this weekend, our school trip to enjoy cherry blossoms will be put off. A. will be B. is C. was D. has been 【答案】B 【解析】 【详解】句意：如果这个周末下雨，我们的学校赏樱之旅就要被推迟了。 will be一般将来时；is一般现在时；was一般过去时；has been现在完成时。这是if引导的条件状语从句，遵循“主将从现”的规则，即从句用一般现在时表示将来，主句用一般将来时。从句主语it是第三人称单数，因此用is。 13. Life is like travelling. We make plans, but we never know how it will ________ in the end. A. turn out B. work out C. put out D. carry out 【答案】A 【解析】 【详解】句意：生活就像旅行。我们制定计划，但我们永远不知道最终结果会如何。 turn out结果是；work out解决/锻炼；put out熄灭；carry out执行。根据“we never know how it will...in the end”可知，此处表达不知道事情最终的结果如何，turn out符合语境。 14. —Oh, no. We have to finish the history project on “Ancient Wuxi” in two days! —Don’t worry, Leo. ________. I’ll search for information, you draw maps and Lily can make the PPT. A. Don’t burn the candle at both ends B. Many hands make light work C. Don’t put all your eggs in one basket D. A friend in need is a friend indeed 【答案】B 【解析】 【详解】句意：——哦，不。我们必须在两天内完成关于 “古代无锡” 的历史课题！——别担心，利奥。人多力量大。我来查找资料，你画地图，莉莉来做 PPT。 Don’t burn the candle at both ends不要过度劳累；Many hands make light work人多力量大/众人拾柴火焰高；Don’t put all your eggs in one basket不要孤注一掷；A friend in need is a friend indeed患难见真情。根据答句中分工完成任务的内容可知，此处强调多人合作能让工作变轻松，应填Many hands make light work。 二、完形填空 阅读下面的短文，然后根据短文内容，在每小题所给的四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。(本大题共10小题，每小题1分，共10分) I remember turning on my iPad one day in Grade 5 after a silly conversation with my cousin about scary story ideas.

B 24. D 【解析】 【导语】本文以作者自身写作爱好为例，讲述了爱好从有趣变得有压力的过程，进而阐述应坚持能带来快乐的爱好，在其中找到乐趣的观点。 【15题详解】 句意：几个小时后，我完成了我的第一篇短篇小说。 根据前文“Hours later”以及语境可知，这里是说完成了第一篇短篇小说，completed有“完成”之意，符合语境。read阅读；forgot忘记；studied学习，均不符合语境。 【16题详解】 句意：从那以后，我写了很多故事，尽管大多数都没有完成。 前后句子是转折关系，though表示“虽然，尽管”，引导让步状语从句，可体现转折含义。as正如；because因为；so所以，均不表示转折。 【17题详解】 句意：我也注意到我这个年龄的人写得很好，我开始对分享我的作品感到不那么自信了。 根据后文“What if my writing isn’t as good as everybody else’s?”可知，作者发现同龄人写得都很好，还产生了“我写得不如别人怎么办”的疑问，说明他对分享自己的作品变得没那么自信了，confident意为“自信的”，符合语境。excited兴奋的；worried担忧的；nervous紧张的，均不符合语境。 【18题详解】 句意：通常，爱好开始于一些有趣的事情，一种与朋友和家人消磨时间的方式，或者逃离我们忙碌的生活。 根据语境可知，爱好通常是一些有趣的事情，是从忙碌生活中解脱出来的一种方式，get away from有“摆脱，逃离”之意，符合语境。catch up with赶上；look forward to期待；give in to屈服于，均不符合语境。 【19题详解】 句意：然而，我想成为一个更好的作家的愿望从来没有实现过，所以我一次放弃写作几个月。 此处表示作者想要变得更好的愿望从未被满足，所以会停笔数月，met有“满足”的意思，符合语境。made制造；held举行；shared分享，均不符合语境。 【20题详解】 句意：当一项爱好感觉像是一件琐事时，它就失去了乐趣。 当爱好变成了琐事，自然就失去了它的乐趣，loses是“失去”，符合语境。doubles加倍；spreads传播；shows展示，均不符合语义。 【21题详解】 句意：我们必须接受，不擅长某件事是可以接受的。 作者提出观点：我们必须接受“不擅长某件事也没关系”这个事实，accept“接受”符合语义。discuss讨论；decide决定；introduce介绍，均不符合语境。 【22题详解】 句意：从学习到工作，爱好可以给你一缕清新的空气。 我们总是要把从学习到工作的所有事情都做好，爱好就是帮我们从这种压力中抽离出来，everything表示“所有事物”，符合语境。anything常用于否定句和疑问句；something某事，某物；nothing没有什么，均不符合语义。 【23题详解】 句意：从你所做的事情中找到乐趣，即使你现在“应该”很擅长。 根据前文“As long as it brings you joy, keep doing that hobby.”可知，要在做的事情中找到快乐，joy有“快乐，乐趣”的意思，符合语境。key关键；way方式；chance机会，均不符合语义。 【24题详解】 句意：毕竟，爱好是你在空闲时间为娱乐而做的事情。 后文“a hobby is something you do for pleasure in your free time. If it’s no longer fun, it’s no longer a hobby”是对爱好的解释说明，毕竟，爱好本就是你空闲时间为了快乐而做的事，After all“毕竟”符合逻辑。As a result结果；For example例如；At first起初，均不符合语境。 三、阅读理解 阅读下面的短文，然后根据短文内容，在每小题所给的四个选项中选出最佳选项。(本大题共 13小题，每小题 2 分，共 26分) A How Clean Are Your Hands?

Seal and label it”，也就是给接触过不同物品的面包装袋并做好标注。 【26题详解】 全文实验原理表明：霉菌能显现出手和日常物品上的污垢，用肥皂洗手后的手接触面包，霉菌生长情况会不同，借此让我们明白洗手的重要性。 【27题详解】 从文体内容来看：文章是简单有趣的生活小实验讲解，不属于故事、小说和旅游指南，这类内容一般出自科普趣味杂志。 B Bedtime comes every night, but what if you’re not feeling sleepy? Should you still head to bed even if you know you’ll just lie there with your eyes open? This problem has been around for as long as people have been trying to get a good night’s sleep. In order to find the best solution for you, it’s necessary to find out what’s keeping you awake at night. You might be excited about something that happened during the day. Perhaps you’re nervous about what’s coming up the next day. Maybe you don’t like sleeping alone in your room. All of these could be reasons for your sleeping problems. However, there are several steps you can take to help you solve them. One thing that can help is talking to a parent or another trusted adult about what you’re worrying about at bedtime. For example, if you’re nervous about taking a test, or upset about having too much stress, it can really help to tell somebody. Knowing that someone has listened to you can ease (宽慰) your mind, helping you to get a good rest. Sleeping in a comfortable bed in a quiet and cool room is another good choice. If there’s anything in your room that makes you feel uneasy or anxious (焦虑的) at night, such as a picture that looks strange in the dark, or a noisy tap in the bathroom, be sure to ask your parents to move or fix it. Also, make sure to keep electronics like mobile phones or iPads away from your bed. They can keep you excited, and make it harder for you to fall asleep. If you are usually restless around bedtime, doing certain things to relax beforehand (预先) may help you fall asleep. Try to take more time to wind down by taking a warm bath, or listening to music for at least 10 minutes before you go to sleep. It’s also helpful to follow a bedtime routine (惯例) and go to sleep at the same time every night. This way, your body will receive the message that it’s almost time to sleep. Your body will learn to start feeling tired, and it’s worth the time and effort to develop a good sleeping habit. 28. To get a good sleep, what does the writer advise you to do first? A. To go to bed at a certain time every night. B. To do something to make you tired in the day. C. To stay away from electronics before going to bed. D. To know the exact reason why you stay awake at night. 29. What is the main idea of paragraph 4? A. Create a good sleep environment. B. Keep the room quiet and cool. C. Make your bedroom comfortable. D. Stay away from electronics. 30. What does the underlined phrase “wind down” in Paragraph 5 probably mean? A. Stay awake. B. Keep clean. C. Get relaxed. D. Feel sleepy. 【答案】28. D 29. A 30. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，围绕夜晚难以入睡的问题展开，说明解决失眠问题首先要明确失眠原因，同时介绍了多个帮助改善睡眠、养成良好睡眠习惯的可行方法。 【28题详解】 第二段开头指出：“In order to find the best solution for you, it’s necessary to find out what’s keeping you awake at night”，这直接说明想要睡个好觉，首先要做的是弄清楚自己夜晚无法入睡的确切原因。 【29题详解】 第四段开头点明核心方向，提出要在舒适安静的环境睡眠，接着说明要移除房间内让人焦虑不安的物品，还要将电子设备移离床铺，所有内容都围绕“创造良好的睡眠环境”展开。 【30题详解】 根据前文“If you are usually restless around bedtime, doing certain things to relax beforehand may help you fall asleep”可知，睡前焦躁时需要提前做放松活动；后文“by taking a warm bath, or listening to music”提到的洗温水澡、听音乐，这些都是这类放松活动的举例，因此wind down的含义为“放松”。 C My five-year-old son befriends the woman. It starts with voices in the yard. When I come out to check on Daniel, his face is pressed on the fence (篱笆). The woman says, “You wait right here. I’ll be right back.” She returns with a saw (锯子). There’s a whirring. A circle in the wooden fence drops out of sight. “Dad! Sandy just drilled out a hole in the fence so Sandy and I can talk!” Daniel spins around. I hadn’t known her name was Sandy. We’ve lived here a month before Daniel was born. Daniel’s and Sandy’s murmuring voices continue. Whenever Daniel is outside, he circles near the fence that isn’t a fence any more. Some days my son just goes to stand at the hole, yelling, “Sandy! Saaaaandyyyyy!” Sometimes I hear bits of their talk. “We painted a ghost at school.” Or: ‘‘Wheeler and Jackson were playing football, and they told me I couldn’t play.” “That wasn’t very nice,” says Sandy. “Did that hurt your feelings? Did you let them know that?” I can’t hear how he replies. A moment of envy runs through me. He never talks about his school things with me. Daniel and Sandy not only keep chatting through the hole, they also exchange gifts. A coloring book, then a Hot Wheels car. It’s unclear what Daniel gives Sandy in return. One afternoon, I hear Sandy’s voice floating over the top of the fence with the hole. “I thought maybe Daniel could come for a play date.” We ring the bell on Sandy’s porch. She’s a middle-aged woman with smiling eyes. Sandy’s yard is sweet with the smell of flowers. We have a pleasant afternoon with Sandy, my son’s adult friend, the first friend Daniel has made on his own. We’ve passed through the hole in the fence. A month later, Sandy leaves to care for her mother in Kansas. She left behind a box of presents: a coloring book, sidewalk chalk, the missing orange part in the Hot Wheels track. When I look at Daniel, he’s looking down at his shoes. He sometimes wanders down to the fence. Instead of calling “Sandy! Saaaaandyyyyy!” he cries. “Hello! Helloooooo!” One day, Daniel receives Sandy’s postcard. They write frequently, warmly. 31. Which of the following is the correct order of the story? a. Sandy leaves for Kansas to care for her mother. b. Daniel and Sandy exchange gifts through the hole. c. Daniel and Sandy are good pen friends. d. Sandy drills out a hole in the fence. e. Sandy invites Daniel to come to her yard for a play date. A. dbeac B. badec C. dceab D. ecadb 32. What can we learn about Daniel from the underlined sentences in the story? A. He doesn’t care about Sandy’s leaving. B. He is impressed with the shoes from Sandy. C. He is heartbroken when hearing the news. D. He does not want to be Sandy’s friend any more. 33. Which can be the best title of the passage? A. A hole in the fence. B. Friendship beyond age. C. A nice neighbour. D. My son and I. 【答案】31. A 32. C 33. B 【解析】 【导语】本文主要讲述了五岁的Daniel和中年妇女Sandy跨年龄交朋友的故事。 【31题详解】 根据第三段中“Dad! Sandy just drilled out a hole in the fence so Sandy and I can talk!”可知，d排在第一位；根据第十一段“Daniel and Sandy not only keep chatting through the hole, they also exchange gifts.”可知，b排在第二位；根据倒数第四段中“We ring the bell on Sandy’s porch.”以及倒数第三段中“Sandy’s yard is sweet with the smell of flowers.”可知，e排在第三位；根据倒数第二段中“A month later, Sandy leaves to care for her mother in Kansas.”可知，a排在第四位；根据最后一段“One day, Daniel receives Sandy’s postcard. They write frequently, warmly.”可知，c排在第五位。因此故事发展的正确顺序是‌dbeac。 【32题详解】 划线句子“When I look at Daniel, he’s looking down at his shoes. He sometimes wanders down to the fence. Instead of calling ‘Sandy! Saaaaandyyyyy!’ he cries. ‘Hello! Helloooooo!’”描述了丹尼尔看着鞋子、有时走到篱笆处呼唤等表现，可以看出他听到桑迪离开的消息很伤心。 【33题详解】 通读全文可知，本文主要讲述了五岁的Daniel和中年妇女Sandy跨年龄交朋友的故事。故选项B“Friendship beyond age (超越年龄的友谊)”适合作为本文的标题。 D “It is especially beautiful. No matter who you are or what your age is, seeing something so fantastic is truly attractive,” said Jin Huilin, who was attracted by the rich patterns (花纹) when he saw Yuhua stones for the first time. Nanjing Yuhua stone is a type of water-worn stone mainly found in areas like Nanjing and Yizheng in Jiangsu Province. It is known for its smooth texture (质地), bright colours and rich patterns. Because Yuhua stones are often got from mines (矿山) , dry Yuhua stones look plain and grey, hiding their true quality. Jin and his friends visited Luhe mining sites in Nanjing, wearing rubber shoes to collect these stones on rainy days. Rain made the stones’ detailed patterns clearer. “It’s better to carry a bottle of water on dry days to pour on the surface of the stones. Sometimes you can find something surprising. “Jin said. According to Jin, appreciating (欣赏) stones starts with their outer qualities like texture, colour, and patterns. ①However, “real appreciation of the stones requires cultural knowledge; otherwise, they might seem like just pieces of colour,” said Jin. With cultural knowledge and imagination, people could see different patterns, such as trees, mountains, or flowers. “②The stones a person chooses as their favourites can show their cultural awareness,” Jin added. Watching patterns of stones in the water is not the only way to appreciate stones. Jin also mentioned other ways. ③He gave some examples. “Some people enjoy holding stones in their hands, appreciating their special textures, or using strong light to discover hidden patterns that are even more beautiful. Others choose to put the stones on the desk, inviting guests to appreciate the stones from different positions,” said Jin. ④ For Jin, stone watching brings joy and something fresh to his life. “Some people like to have lively pets while I prefer stones for their lasting nature.” Jin added. 34. The writer begins this article by ________. A. explaining an idea B. showing the reasons C. comparing differences D. telling someone’s opinion 35. Jin suggests carrying a bottle of water when collecting stones on dry days because ________. A. water can bring people good luck B. stones can avoid being polluted with water C. water can help find the stones’ true quality D. the weather makes people feel thirsty easily 36. The sentence “So, watching stones is, in some ways, watching oneself.” most probably comes from ________. A. ① B. ② C. ③ D. ④ 37. What can we know about Yuhua stones from the passage? A. Their true quality can be found easily on the surface. B. They can be found in most cities in Jiangsu Province. C. There are different patterns like mountains and flowers in them. D. The textures are seen more clearly in the water than with strong light. 【答案】34. D 35. C 36. B 37. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇人物采访，通过赏石爱好者金慧林的视角，介绍了南京雨花石的特点、采集方法以及赏石的文化内涵，展现了赏石不仅是观其形色，更是一种文化与心境的体现。 【34题详解】 文章开头直接引用了金慧林对雨花石的感受：“It is especially beautiful...seeing something so fantastic is truly attractive.”，这是通过讲述某人的观点来引出话题。 【35题详解】 文中金慧林提到：“It’s better to carry a bottle of water on dry days to pour on the surface of the stones. Sometimes you can find something surprising.” 说明在干燥天气下浇水可以帮助看清雨花石的真实花纹。 【36题详解】 句子“So, watching stones is, in some ways, watching oneself.” 表达的是赏石与自我观照的关系。文中②处金慧林说“The stones a person chooses as their favourites can show their cultural awareness.”，强调所选之石反映个人文化修养，与这句话含义一致，因此应放在②处。 【37题详解】 文中提到“With cultural knowledge and imagination, people could see different patterns, such as trees, mountains, or flowers.”，说明雨花石中可以看到山、花等不同图案。 第II卷 (非选择题 共50分) 四、词汇运用 (本大题共10小题，每小题1分，共10分) (A)根据句意和中文注释，在答题卡对应题号的横线上写出单词的正确形式。 38.

In different cultures, horses stand for similar things, but with occasional (偶尔的) exceptions. In China, the horse carries many positive meanings, such as smart and energetic, and we can see them in Chinese idioms. For example, a talented person is often called “qianlima”, a horse that covers a thousand li a day. And someone who is good at finding talent is referred to as “bole”, a person who could tell a good horse by its looks in ancient China. Other horse-related phrases in Chinese include “madaochenggong”, which means instant success and “longmajingshen”, which means full of energy. Horses are also said to have powerful brains with “excellent memories”, according to Discovery News. Maybe that’s why a Chinese idiom goes: “An old horse knows the way.” In other cultures, horses are also important and special. In the Middle Ages, the horse was a symbol of chivalry (骑士精神) and nobility (贵族) in Western societies. In fact, the word “chivalry” comes from the Old French word “cheval”, which meant horse. The idea of chivalry helped to shape the 19th-century image of the “gentleman”, which was known for good manners, courage and loyalty (忠诚) to friends. Since the horse is honored as a symbol of energy, loyalty, strong will and intelligence, people born in the Year of the Horse are also believed to have these great qualities. 58. What kind of person is often called “qianlima”? ____________________________ 59. Are horses also important and special in other cultures? ____________________________ 60. Where was the horse a symbol of chivalry and nobility? ____________________________ 61. What helped to shape the 19th-century image of the “gentleman”? ____________________________ 62. How do you like the people born in the Year of the Horse? (请自拟一句话作答) ____________________________ 【答案】58. A talented person. 59. Yes, they are. 60. In Western societies. 61. The idea of chivalry. 62. They are energetic, loyal, (strong-willed, intelligent…) . (符合题意即可） 【解析】 【导语】本文主要讲述了在不同文化中马所代表的象征意义，包括在中国文化中马所承载的积极寓意以及其他文化中马的重要性和特殊性。 【58题详解】 第二段明确说明“a talented person is often called ‘qianlima’”，所以答案是原文直接信息。 【59题详解】 第四段明确提到 “In other cultures, horses are also important and special.”，这是原文中的直接信息，此处是肯定回答。 【60题详解】 第四段指出 “In the Middle Ages, the horse was a symbol of chivalry (骑士精神) and nobility (贵族) in Western societies.”，这是原文中的具体地点信息，直接提取。 【61题详解】 第四段提到 “The idea of chivalry helped to shape the 19th-century image of the ‘gentleman’”，这是原文中的具体信息，直接提取。 【62题详解】 本题是开放性试题，答案不唯一，但观点需基于文中事实。结合文章最后一段 “Since the horse is honored as a symbol of energy, loyalty, strong will and intelligence, people born in the Year of the Horse are also believed to have these great qualities.” 以及自己对马年出生的人的看法、理由，合理作答即可。 七、书面表达(本大题共20分) 63. 假如你是李华，近期无锡中小学生将迎来为期三天的春假，这一举措在同学们中引发了广泛讨论。请你给学校英文校报写一篇短文，具体谈谈你的春假计划和安排，同时描述你对春假的想法。 注意事项： 1. 内容须涵盖所有要点，要求语句通顺、意思连贯、符合题意; 2. 词数不少于90个，开头已给出，不计入总词数; 3. 文中不得使用真实的个人姓名或学校名称; 4. 作文必须写在答题卡指定的位置上。 Primary and middle school students in Wuxi will have a 3-day spring holiday. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】One possible version: Primary and middle school students in Wuxi will have a 3-day spring holiday. As for me, I am really looking forward to it and have made a careful plan. On the first day, I will finish all my homework carefully. Then, I plan to go for a walk in the park with my family. On the second day, I want to help my parents with some housework, such as cleaning rooms and washing dishes. On the third day, I will read my favorite English book to improve my reading skills.
