The protected area covers over 296.85 square kilometres in central Croatia and is visited by almost two million people a year. Its name is pronounced “pleet-veet-she” and comes from the Croatian word for “shallow (浅的)” because of its unusual shallow lakes. Special creation It is really an amazing and special place. Visitors are amazed by the brightly coloured lakes and waterfalls in shades of bright blue, green and grey. The colours change often, depending on the minerals or organisms in the water and the angle (角度) of the sunlight. The largest waterfall is 78 metres high. There are 12 upper lakes and 4 lower ones; they are connected to each other by the river system that flows through the park and becomes the Korana River when it leaves the lowest lake. Different trails There are about eight different trails you can follow, from 3 kilometres to 18 kilometres. Some include a boat trip across the Kozjak Lake. Most of the trails are made of stone or wood and are well marked, so you can’t get lost. Hikers have said the experience is like visiting a wonderland, because it is all so beautiful and peaceful. Plants and animals The park is heavily forested and there are at least 1,267 different types of plants, including flowering orchids. A great number of these plants are protected by law, as well as the park’s 50 types of mammals, which include brown bears, grey wolves, red deer and European wildcats. There are also at least 321 types of butterflies! ___▲___ The park has never been completely untouched. Different groups of humans have lived here for thousands of years, and under Julius Caesar, it became part of the Roman Empire. Even today, there are 19 small villages within the park where the people try to keep up traditional customs, wear Croatian costumes and give dance shows for visitors. The Plitvice Lakes are a natural wonder of the world. Put them on your to-do list. Autumn is a lovely time to visit because of the beautiful colours, but be warned—everything freezes over in winter! 24. What is the best heading for ___▲___? A. Natural Beauty B. Village Traditions C. Amazing Wildlife D. Human History 25. What can we learn about the way people live with nature in the park? A. Tradition and nature stay in balance. B. Traditions disappear as modern life grows. C. Human activities harm the natural resources. D. People live simply away from the modern world. 26. Sammy wants to visit Plitvice Lakes National Park. Which of her friends would be the best travel partner for her? A. Michael: I prefer visiting places with big cities nearby and lots of modern entertainment. B. Sarah: I enjoy cultural trips to learn about history and watch local song and dance shows. C. David: I like to visit during winter to see snow and ice-covered landscapes, even if the trails are closed. D. Emily: I want to explore hiking trails, see wild animals and enjoy beautiful lakes and waterfalls. C Putting on VR headsets, people can get quite immersive (沉浸式虚拟现实的) gaming experiences. That sounds like fun, but VR isn’t just for video games. It can also be used in many other industries (行业). A few years ago, Oral Roberts University in America opened a new Global Learning Center. It has classrooms with 360-degree cameras on the wall. They turn around to follow and take videos of teachers as they teach. Students don’t have to go to the classroom to experience VR. Through an app on their smartphones, they can see the videos in 3D and control them. “VR has changed the way students learn,” Michael Mathews said. During the 27th Beijing Music Festival in October, 2024, a VR show called *Eight* appeared in Asia for the first time. It tells a story of an old woman looking back on her life and lasts for 15 minutes. As a special mix of music, theater, VR technology (科技) and visual art, the show is really a wonderful experience for visitors. “The VR technology lets these musical experiences make sense,” said Hong Lin, one of the visitors who experienced *Eight*. The director of the show said, “When I have an idea, I think about how to communicate it to others. Whatever thoughts I have, the technology is always in service of them.” VR is getting popular around the world. With the quick development of 5G technology, there is no question that the VR industry will enter a new period. Experts and industry insiders say that the VR industry will enter a new era. 27. Paragraph 2 gives an example of the use of VR in the ________ industry. A. music B. game C. education D. movie 28. What’s the main idea of Paragraph 3? A. *Eight* is a show at a music festival. B. VR makes the show *Eight* fantastic. C. It’s important for us to watch shows. D. VR is so useful that we can use it at any time. 29. What can we learn about VR from Paragraph 4? A. It’ll be mainly for game users. B. It’ll face many great difficulties. C. It’ll become the most important technology. D. It’ll develop more quickly with the help of 5G technology. 30. Who might be the most interested in the passage? A. Oscar, who wants to study history. B. James, who shows an interest in Chinese culture. C. George, who has little free time to play video games. D. Sherry, who enjoys reading the news about technology. D Once a giant blocked (阻挡) the only road between the city of Here and the city of There. He challenged travelers to have a match. The King sent the best fighters but they were all defeated (击败). He called for a wise old man who was named the Wise One in the kingdom. The Wise One came to the giant with a cart and horse. Surprisingly, the giant was dressed up like the Wise One. He shouted, “None shall pass without a fight. I’ll win the match, wrong or right!” “Well!” said the Wise One. “Let me think about this!” He sat down and his stomach growled. He took out a piece of bread from his bag. Then he heard a growl from the stomach of the giant. The Wise One offered to share the food with him. “So!” cried the giant. “You try to win this match with kindness! But now I’ll defeat you.” The giant took a table and a chair from his own bag and all kinds of dishes for the Wise One. Then he stood there again, blocking the road. “So that’s the way of it,” whispered the Wise One. After he enjoyed enough food offered by the giant, he looked at the giant. “I would like you to know a little about me. I live in a forest outside the city of Here. Others call me the Wise One.” The giant shouted, “Another challenge! But you won’t win, because now I’ll tell you even more about me. I have no name, for my father is the wind, and my mother is a mirror. Like any mirror, I have no power or skill. I show only what I see.” “That’s it,” said the Wise One. “It is getting late, and I must reach the city of There before dark.” He stepped up to the giant and smiled kindly. “May I offer you a ride?” The giant screamed, “You dare to challenge me again? This time I’ll defeat you once and for all!” He picked up the Wise One, the cart, and the horse. Then he raced down the road as fast as any wind, all the way to the city of There. The giant set them down gently at the city gate. “I hope you’ve finally learned your lesson,” he said. “Oh, I have!” said the Wise One. “I thank you for it—and so will the King and all his people, I’m sure.” Ever since then—thanks to the Wise One—travelers between Here and There only need to walk half of the way, and then they get a ride from the giant. 31. How many times did the giant try to defeat the Wise One? A. Once. B. Twice. C. Three times. D. Four times. 32. The Wise One introduced himself to the giant in order to ________. A. get more food B. express his kindness C. know more about the giant D. thank the giant for his help 33. From the passage, we know that the giant is ________. A. kind and helpful B. fast and proud C. fast and gentle D. kind and confident 34. After the match, the Wise One might say to the King, “________.” A. It’s a pity that I didn’t defeat the giant B. The giant can be helpful if treated properly C. Travelers can’t get a ride after the match D. I’ve moved the giant out of the way with kindness 35. What’s the best title of the passage? A. More Than a Match B. The Son of Wind and Mirror C. The King’s Invitation D.

A. read B. am reading C. have read D. will read 【答案】C 【解析】 【详解】句意：——《三体》太棒了。这是我读过的最好的书。——我同意。到目前为止我已经读了好几遍了。 根据时间状语“up to now”可知，动作发生在过去且对现在造成影响，句子时态应用现在完成时。 三、完形填空（共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分） What will you choose to do while you are in trouble?

The protected area covers over 296.85 square kilometres in central Croatia and is visited by almost two million people a year. Its name is pronounced “pleet-veet-she” and comes from the Croatian word for “shallow (浅的)” because of its unusual shallow lakes. Special creation It is really an amazing and special place. Visitors are amazed by the brightly coloured lakes and waterfalls in shades of bright blue, green and grey. The colours change often, depending on the minerals or organisms in the water and the angle (角度) of the sunlight. The largest waterfall is 78 metres high. There are 12 upper lakes and 4 lower ones; they are connected to each other by the river system that flows through the park and becomes the Korana River when it leaves the lowest lake. Different trails There are about eight different trails you can follow, from 3 kilometres to 18 kilometres. Some include a boat trip across the Kozjak Lake. Most of the trails are made of stone or wood and are well marked, so you can’t get lost. Hikers have said the experience is like visiting a wonderland, because it is all so beautiful and peaceful. Plants and animals The park is heavily forested and there are at least 1,267 different types of plants, including flowering orchids. A great number of these plants are protected by law, as well as the park’s 50 types of mammals, which include brown bears, grey wolves, red deer and European wildcats. There are also at least 321 types of butterflies! ___▲___ The park has never been completely untouched. Different groups of humans have lived here for thousands of years, and under Julius Caesar, it became part of the Roman Empire. Even today, there are 19 small villages within the park where the people try to keep up traditional customs, wear Croatian costumes and give dance shows for visitors. The Plitvice Lakes are a natural wonder of the world. Put them on your to-do list. Autumn is a lovely time to visit because of the beautiful colours, but be warned—everything freezes over in winter! 24. What is the best heading for ___▲___? A. Natural Beauty B. Village Traditions C. Amazing Wildlife D. Human History 25. What can we learn about the way people live with nature in the park? A. Tradition and nature stay in balance. B. Traditions disappear as modern life grows. C. Human activities harm the natural resources. D. People live simply away from the modern world. 26. Sammy wants to visit Plitvice Lakes National Park.

Sarah: I enjoy cultural trips to learn about history and watch local song and dance shows. C.

That sounds like fun, but VR isn’t just for video games. It can also be used in many other industries (行业). A few years ago, Oral Roberts University in America opened a new Global Learning Center. It has classrooms with 360-degree cameras on the wall. They turn around to follow and take videos of teachers as they teach. Students don’t have to go to the classroom to experience VR. Through an app on their smartphones, they can see the videos in 3D and control them. “VR has changed the way students learn,” Michael Mathews said. During the 27th Beijing Music Festival in October, 2024, a VR show called *Eight* appeared in Asia for the first time. It tells a story of an old woman looking back on her life and lasts for 15 minutes. As a special mix of music, theater, VR technology (科技) and visual art, the show is really a wonderful experience for visitors. “The VR technology lets these musical experiences make sense,” said Hong Lin, one of the visitors who experienced *Eight*. The director of the show said, “When I have an idea, I think about how to communicate it to others. Whatever thoughts I have, the technology is always in service of them.” VR is getting popular around the world. With the quick development of 5G technology, there is no question that the VR industry will enter a new period. Experts and industry insiders say that the VR industry will enter a new era. 27. Paragraph 2 gives an example of the use of VR in the ________ industry. A. music B. game C. education D. movie 28. What’s the main idea of Paragraph 3? A. *Eight* is a show at a music festival. B. VR makes the show *Eight* fantastic. C. It’s important for us to watch shows. D. VR is so useful that we can use it at any time. 29. What can we learn about VR from Paragraph 4? A. It’ll be mainly for game users. B. It’ll face many great difficulties. C. It’ll become the most important technology. D. It’ll develop more quickly with the help of 5G technology. 30. Who might be the most interested in the passage? A. Oscar, who wants to study history. B. James, who shows an interest in Chinese culture. C. George, who has little free time to play video games. D. Sherry, who enjoys reading the news about technology. 【答案】27. C 28. B 29. D 30. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了VR（虚拟现实）技术的应用场景与发展前景。文章先从游戏引入，再分别介绍VR在教育、音乐艺术领域的应用，最后说明5G技术将推动VR行业进入新的发展阶段。 【27题详解】 第二段以美国奥拉尔·罗伯茨大学的全球学习中心为例，介绍了VR如何用于课堂教学、远程学习，改变学生的学习方式，属于教育行业的应用案例。 【28题详解】 第三段围绕北京音乐节上的VR作品《Eight》展开，说明VR技术如何与音乐、戏剧、视觉艺术结合，让这场演出成为独特的沉浸式体验，因此核心是“VR让《Eight》这场演出变得非常精彩”。 【29题详解】 第四段提到“With the quick development of 5G technology, there is no question that the VR industry will enter a new period.”，说明在5G技术的推动下，VR行业将迎来新的发展阶段，发展速度会更快。 【30题详解】 全文围绕VR技术的行业应用与发展前景展开，属于科技类话题，因此对科技新闻感兴趣的Sherry会是最感兴趣的读者。 D Once a giant blocked (阻挡) the only road between the city of Here and the city of There. He challenged travelers to have a match. The King sent the best fighters but they were all defeated (击败). He called for a wise old man who was named the Wise One in the kingdom. The Wise One came to the giant with a cart and horse. Surprisingly, the giant was dressed up like the Wise One. He shouted, “None shall pass without a fight. I’ll win the match, wrong or right!” “Well!” said the Wise One. “Let me think about this!” He sat down and his stomach growled. He took out a piece of bread from his bag. Then he heard a growl from the stomach of the giant. The Wise One offered to share the food with him. “So!” cried the giant. “You try to win this match with kindness! But now I’ll defeat you.” The giant took a table and a chair from his own bag and all kinds of dishes for the Wise One. Then he stood there again, blocking the road. “So that’s the way of it,” whispered the Wise One. After he enjoyed enough food offered by the giant, he looked at the giant. “I would like you to know a little about me. I live in a forest outside the city of Here. Others call me the Wise One.” The giant shouted, “Another challenge! But you won’t win, because now I’ll tell you even more about me. I have no name, for my father is the wind, and my mother is a mirror. Like any mirror, I have no power or skill. I show only what I see.” “That’s it,” said the Wise One. “It is getting late, and I must reach the city of There before dark.” He stepped up to the giant and smiled kindly. “May I offer you a ride?” The giant screamed, “You dare to challenge me again? This time I’ll defeat you once and for all!” He picked up the Wise One, the cart, and the horse. Then he raced down the road as fast as any wind, all the way to the city of There. The giant set them down gently at the city gate. “I hope you’ve finally learned your lesson,” he said. “Oh, I have!” said the Wise One. “I thank you for it—and so will the King and all his people, I’m sure.” Ever since then—thanks to the Wise One—travelers between Here and There only need to walk half of the way, and then they get a ride from the giant. 31. How many times did the giant try to defeat the Wise One? A. Once. B. Twice. C. Three times. D. Four times. 32. The Wise One introduced himself to the giant in order to ________. A. get more food B. express his kindness C. know more about the giant D. thank the giant for his help 33. From the passage, we know that the giant is ________. A. kind and helpful B. fast and proud C. fast and gentle D. kind and confident 34. After the match, the Wise One might say to the King, “________.” A. It’s a pity that I didn’t defeat the giant B. The giant can be helpful if treated properly C. Travelers can’t get a ride after the match D. I’ve moved the giant out of the way with kindness 35. What’s the best title of the passage? A. More Than a Match B. The Son of Wind and Mirror C. The King’s Invitation D. The Distance between Here and There 【答案】31. C 32. C 33. B 34. B 35. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇寓言故事，讲述了智者用智慧而非武力，化解巨人对道路的阻挡，最终让巨人成为旅人的助力，展现了善意与沟通的力量。 【31题详解】 文中巨人三次试图击败智者：初次见面时，巨人喊出“None shall pass without a fight. I’ll win the match, wrong or right!”，发出第一次挑战。智者分享食物后，巨人喊道“You try to win this match with kindness! But now I’ll defeat you.”，发起第二次挑战。智者请求搭车时，巨人尖叫“You dare to challenge me again? This time I’ll defeat you once and for all!”，发起第三次挑战。因此巨人共尝试了三次击败智者。 【32题详解】 智者向巨人介绍自己“I live in a forest outside the city of Here. Others call me the Wise One.”，目的是引导巨人说出自己的身世，从而了解巨人的特点，找到化解矛盾的方法。 【33题详解】 文中巨人“raced down the road as fast as any wind”，说明他速度极快；同时他多次主动发起挑战，态度傲慢、争强好胜，因此他的特点是fast and proud（速度快且骄傲）。 【34题详解】 故事结尾，智者用善意而非武力化解了巨人的阻挡，让巨人愿意载旅人一程。因此他会向国王说明，巨人在被善意对待后，也能成为帮助他人的力量。因此答案为B。 【35题详解】 故事的核心并非巨人与智者的直接对抗，而是智者通过善意与沟通，让原本的“对手”变成了旅人的助力，超越了单纯的“对抗比赛”，因此最佳标题为“More Than a Match”。 五、词汇运用（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） A 根据括号中所给的汉语、音标或英文释义写出单词，使语篇意思完整正确。 Traveling lets us see beautiful places.
