He’s busy these days. A. although B. because C. whether 【答案】C 【解析】 【详解】句意：——妈妈，陈叔叔会来我的生日派对吗？——我不确定他是否会来。他这几天很忙。 although虽然；because因为；whether是否。根据“I’m not sure”可知表示不确定，后面接宾语从句应用whether引导，表示“是否”。although引导让步状语从句，because引导原因状语从句，均不符合语境。 7. — Do you often share everything with your friends? — No. I always keep some ________ thoughts and feelings to myself.

Keep trying. A. None B. Neither C. All 【答案】A 【解析】 【详解】句意：——我试了好几种方法来解决这个问题，但都不管用。——别放弃。继续尝试。 None没有一个 (三者或以上)；Neither两者都不；All全都 (用于肯定句)。根据“several ways” (好几种方法)可知，方法数量为三种或以上，且“but”表示转折，说明这些方法都不奏效，应填“None”。故选A。 11. — Why do all his friends trust him so much? — Because he always ________ his promise and never lets others down.

A. buy B. to buy C. buying 【答案】B 【解析】 【详解】句意：——我真的很喜欢那件毛衣，但是这个月我买不起它。——也许你可以等季节性促销。 afford to do sth.是固定搭配，意为“负担得起做某事”，故选to buy。 14. — Would you like to join us to clean up the community park this weekend? — Sure.

Around 4 p.m., dark clouds filled the sky and heavy rain began to fall. People who were enjoying their time in the park quickly ran to find shelter (n. 避难所; 遮蔽处). But a young boy did not move. He remained sitting alone at a stone chess table, completely lost in thought. For the next four hours, the rain continued without stopping. The boy stayed in the same place, getting wetter and wetter. His clothes were soaked, but he seemed not to notice. Many people walked by and saw him. Some stopped and watched from a distance, wondering what was wrong. Mrs. Chen, a local woman who often takes walks in the park, became worried. “I first saw him when the rain started,” she said. “Two hours later, when I passed by again, he was still there. I went over and asked if he needed an umbrella or some help. He didn’t answer. He just kept watching the empty chessboard in front of him.” Another visitor was so worried that he wanted to call the police, thinking the boy might be lost or afraid. Later, a man arrived at the park. He explained that he was Mr. Lee, the boy’s father. “We played chess here this morning,” Mr. Lee said. “My son lost the game because of one careless move. He was very close to winning. He wasn’t angry, but he needed time to think about what went wrong. When it comes to chess, he becomes so focused that he forgets everything else—even a heavy storm.” Finally, around 8 o’clock in the evening, the rain stopped. Mr. Lee helped his son stand up, and together they walked slowly out of the park. People who saw them leave felt a sense of relief (n. 宽慰; 安心). What had seemed like a worrying situation turned out to be a story of deep passion. The young boy wasn’t in trouble—he was simply lost in the game he loved. 31. What does the word “soaked” in Paragraph 2 probably mean in Chinese? A. 干净的 B. 湿透的 C. 破旧的 D. 时髦的 32. Why did the boy keep sitting in the heavy rain? A. He was afraid of his father. B. He wanted to catch others’ attention. C. He had no money to go home. D. He was thinking about his chess game. 33. What is the correct order of the following events according to the passage? a. Mr. Lee arrived and explained that his son was thinking about a chess game. b. People passing by noticed the boy and some tried to offer help. c. A boy remained sitting at a chess table when the rain started. d. The boy finally left the park with Mr. Lee. A. a→b→c→d B. b→c→a→d C. c→b→a→d D. d→c→b→a 34. Which of the following sayings can best describe the boy in the story? A. Every cloud has a silver lining. B. Where there is a will, there is a way. C. Actions speak louder than words. D. Nothing can stop true passion. 35. What is the best title for this passage? A. A Stormy Afternoon at the Park B. A Boy Who Forgot the Rain C. How to Become a Chess Master D. The Kindness of Strangers 【答案】31. B 32. D 33. C 34. D 35. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，讲述了一个男孩因专注于象棋失误而忽略下雨的故事。 【31题详解】 根据第2段中的“For the next four hours, the rain continued without stopping. The boy stayed in the same place, getting wetter and wetter. His clothes were soaked,”可知，在接下来的四个小时里，雨一直下个不停。男孩待在同一个地方，越来越湿。他的衣服湿透了，“soaked”的意思是“湿透的”。 【32题详解】 根据第4段中的“He explained that he was Mr. Lee, the boy’s father. ‘We played chess here this morning,’ Mr. Lee said. ’My son lost the game because of one careless move. He was very close to winning. He wasn’t angry, but he needed time to think about what went wrong. When it comes to chess, he becomes so focused that he forgets everything else—even a heavy storm.’”可知，男孩一直坐在雨中是因为他在复盘象棋比赛，思考失误的原因。 【33题详解】 根据文章第1段中的“But a young boy did not move. He remained sitting alone at a stone chess table, completely lost in thought.”；第3段中的“Two hours later, when I passed by again, he was still there. I went over and asked if he needed an umbrella or some help. He didn’t answer.”第4段中的“He explained that he was Mr. Lee, the boy’s father. ‘We played chess here this morning,’ Mr. Lee said. ’My son lost the game because of one careless move. He was very close to winning. He wasn’t angry, but he needed time to think about what went wrong. When it comes to chess, he becomes so focused that he forgets everything else—even a heavy storm.’”第5段中的“Finally, around 8 o’clock in the evening, the rain stopped. Mr. Lee helped his son stand up, and together they walked slowly out of the park.”可知，事件的正确顺序是“c→b→a→d”。 【34题详解】 根据文章第3段中的“He was very close to winning. He wasn’t angry, but he needed time to think about what went wrong. When it comes to chess, he becomes so focused that he forgets everything else—even a heavy storm.”可知，男孩因专注于象棋比赛的复盘，完全忽略了大雨和外界的干扰，体现了对下棋的极度热爱。选项D“Nothing can stop true passion.”最能体现“热爱能克服一切阻碍”的主题。 【35题详解】 文章核心是男孩因专注于象棋而忘记了下雨，B选项“A Boy Who Forgot the Rain”既点明了核心人物，也概括了故事的关键情节，是最佳标题。 C Horses are special in Chinese culture. They stand for speed, success, and loyalty. In old times, horses were very important for travel, farming, and protecting the country. Even today, they still encourage us through language, art, and celebrations. There are many wise horse sayings in Chinese. For example, “An old horse knows the way” tells us experienced people can guide us well. “A thousand-mile horse” means a very talented person. Another famous saying is “A long road tests a horse’s strength, and time shows a person’s heart.” This teaches us that true character needs time to be seen. In races or games, a “dark horse” is someone who wins surprisingly. Horses also star in art and festivals. On November 25, 2025, “Lucky Horse”, the mascot (吉祥物) for the 2026 “Happy Chinese New Year” global celebrations, was introduced. The idea comes from two famous horses in old China. The first is a bronze statue called “Horse Stepping on a Flying Swallow (燕)”. It shows a horse running very fast. The second is the “Five-Flower Horse” from the Tang Dynasty. It is famous for its long, flowing mane (鬃毛). This design mixes these two ideas. It has the running speed of the first horse and the beautiful long hair of the second horse. In the Chinese zodiac (生肖), people born in the Year of the Horse are said to be energetic and kind. During this year, families stick red horse paper cuttings on doors and say blessings like “Ride a fast horse to chase your dreams!” In a word, from ancient stories to modern life, the horse encourages us to work hard, stay true, and move forward bravely. Let’s learn from the horse—run toward our dreams with a strong heart, and keep going even when the road is long. 36. What is the Chinese saying “A long road tests a horse’s strength, and time shows a person’s heart” similar to? A. Better late than never. B. Actions speak louder than words. C. Time will tell. D. Practice makes perfect. 37. Which one might be “Lucky Horse” according to Paragraph 3? A. B. C. D. 38. Which of the following is NOT true about horses in Chinese culture? A. Horses carry the meanings of being fast, successful and faithful. B. Modern people hardly connect horses with art or celebrations. C. A dark horse refers to a person who wins unexpectedly. D. People born in the Year of the Horse are believed to be full of energy. 39. What can we infer from the passage? A. Horses stand for a positive spirit in Chinese culture. B. Horses are not as important in modern China as before. C. People keep horses mostly for work in cities now. D. Horses are the most important of all the zodiac animals. 40. What is the writer’s purpose of writing the passage? A. To show the importance of the twelve zodiac animals. B. To encourage people to raise horses. C. To tell some interesting stories about the Tang Dynasty. D. To introduce the culture of horses in China. 【答案】36. C 37. B 38. B 39. A 40. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了马在中国文化中的特殊意义。 【36题详解】 “A long road tests a horse’s strength, and time shows a person’s heart”的意思是“路遥知马力，日久见人心”，其核心含义是：时间能检验事物的本质与人心的好坏。结合选项，选项C“时间会证明一切”与该句的意思相近。 【37题详解】 根据第3段“Horses also star in art and festivals. On November 25, 2025, “Lucky Horse”, the mascot (吉祥物) for the 2026 “Happy Chinese New Year” global celebrations, was introduced. The idea comes from two famous horses in old China. The first is a bronze statue called “Horse Stepping on a Flying Swallow (燕)”. It shows a horse running very fast. The second is the “Five-Flower Horse” from the Tang Dynasty. It is famous for its long, flowing mane (鬃毛). This design mixes these two ideas. It has the running speed of the first horse and the beautiful long hair of the second horse.”可知，“Lucky Horse”融合了两匹古画中的马——《马踏飞燕》中奔跑的马，和唐代《五花马》中飘逸的鬃毛。选项B的奔跑姿态与鬃毛设计符合文章中的描述。 【38题详解】 根据第3段中的“Horses also star in art and festivals. On November 25, 2025, “Lucky Horse”, the mascot (吉祥物) for the 2026 “Happy Chinese New Year” global celebrations, was introduced.”可知，现代仍将马与艺术、庆典联系在一起，因此B选项表述错误。 【39题详解】 根据第1段中的“Horses are special in Chinese culture. They stand for speed, success, and loyalty.”可知，马在中国文化中代表速度、成功和忠诚，也就是说马在中国文化中代表着积极的精神。 【40题详解】 文章从马的象征意义、俗语、艺术形象、生肖文化等多个方面，全面介绍了马在中国文化中的内涵，因此写作目的是介绍中国的马文化。 D Nowadays, we have many different kinds of technologies to protect us from different disasters. We can even know where and when some disasters, like the typhoon, the flood and the earthquake, happen. While most of the new technologies are far away from us, some around us can help people in disasters. The drone (无人机) is one of them. It can be used to send things like food and water when a natural disaster happens. It’s often too dangerous for the rescue teams to get into the buildings. So they make the drone fly into the buildings to search for those who are still alive. The drone is also a useful tool for firefighters to find and fight wildfires. In some faraway places in the world, drones are the fastest way to send medicine to people who are in great need of it. Social media platforms (平台) are also useful when it comes to natural disasters. With their help, people can know about the natural disasters before they hit. And some social media platforms allow people to mark themselves as safe after disasters, so others can know their situations. Social media platforms are also places for up-to-date news, so people can learn what is going on in disaster areas. Besides, many social media platforms allow people to donate (捐赠) money to help people in disaster areas. The money will help them get back to their normal life as soon as possible. For example, live streaming (直播) helped raise a lot of money for Henan after the flood in 2021. Although these technologies can help us a lot when there is a natural disaster, we still need to prepare necessary tools and learn important skills to protect ourselves. 41. What does the underlined word “they” in Paragraph 2 refer to? A. Drones. B. The rescue teams. C. The people in disaster areas. D. The social media platforms. 42. The drone can help do the following things EXCEPT __________. A. send food and water to people when a natural disaster happens B. fly into dangerous buildings to search for people still alive C. help firefighters find and fight against wildfires D. take injured people quickly to safe places during disasters 43. Why does the writer mention live streaming? A. To show social media platforms can provide up-to-date news. B. To show people can know about coming disasters through social media platforms. C. To show social media platforms can help raise money after a disaster. D. To show people can tell others they are safe through social media platforms. 44. What is the correct structure of the passage? (①=Paragraph 1) A. B. C. D. 45. What does this passage mainly talk about? A. It tells us what to do when disasters come. B. It advises us to use social media platforms more often. C. It tells us how some technologies help people in disasters. D. It suggests that we should learn self-protection skills during disasters. 【答案】41. B 42. D 43. C 44. D 45. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了无人机、社交媒体平台等科技在自然灾害救援与应对中的作用。 【41题详解】 根据第2段中的“It’s often too dangerous for the rescue teams to get into the buildings. So they make the drone fly into the buildings to search for those who are still alive.”可知，救援队进入建筑物往往太危险了。因此，他们让无人机飞入建筑物，寻找那些还活着的人，可知此处“they”指代的是“The rescue teams.” 【42题详解】 根据第2段“The drone (无人机) is one of them. It can be used to send things like food and water when a natural disaster happens. It’s often too dangerous for the rescue teams to get into the buildings. So they make the drone fly into the buildings to search for those who are still alive. The drone is also a useful tool for firefighters to find and fight wildfires. In some faraway places in the world, drones are the fastest way to send medicine to people who are in great need of it.”可知，当自然灾害发生时，它可以用来运送食物和水等物品。救援队进入建筑物往往太危险了。因此，他们让无人机飞入建筑物，寻找那些还活着的人。无人机也是消防员发现和扑灭野火的有用工具。在世界上一些遥远的地方，无人机是向急需药品的人运送药品的最快方式。文中没有提到“快速将伤者送往安全地带”。 【43题详解】 根据文章第4段中的“Besides, many social media platforms allow people to donate (捐赠) money to help people in disaster areas. The money will help them get back to their normal life as soon as possible. For example, live streaming (直播) helped raise a lot of money for Henan after the flood in 2021.”可知，作者提到直播是为了证明社交媒体平台可以帮助灾后筹款。 【44题详解】 文章第①段：总起，介绍有多种技术可在灾害中帮助人们；②段：分述，介绍无人机的作用；③-④段：分述，介绍社交媒体平台的作用；⑤段：总结，在自然灾害中，强调技术的帮助作用的同时，人们仍需自我保护。选项D中的结构图是正确的。 【45题详解】 文章第①段引入“技术可帮助抵御灾害”；②-④段分别介绍无人机、社交媒体平台两种技术的具体作用，可知文章主要告诉我们一些技术是如何在灾难中帮助人们的。 第二节 阅读下面短文，从短文后所给的五个选项中选出能填入短文空白处的最佳选项，使短文通顺、连贯，意思完整。（每小题1分，满分5分） E Like cool swims and lazy vacations, fireflies are a sign of summer. ____46____ But how much do you really know about these little creatures? Fireflies use their light to “talk”—not only to find mates, but also to protect their homes and drive away things that might hurt them. What’s special is that their light doesn’t make any heat. This “light” comes from two chemicals (化学物质) in their bodies—luciferin (荧光素) and luciferase (荧光素酶). When mixed with ATP (found in all living things) and O₂, they create the light. ____47____ Sadly, human activities are putting them in danger. One big problem is the loss of homes. ____48____ Another problem is light pollution. The light from homes, cars and street lamps makes it harder for fireflies to send signals (发信号) to each other during mating. This means fewer baby fireflies will be born next season. ____49____ First, turn off outdoor lights so that fireflies can send signals to each other freely. Also, leaving fallen trees, dead leaves, and natural waste in yards gives a good place for baby fireflies to grow. Since most fireflies live near still water, creating small ponds can bring them in. Most importantly, stop using too many pesticides (农药) which are bad for fireflies. Making these simple changes isn’t just about helping fireflies—it’s about keeping the magic of summer alive. ____50____. A. As cities and farms develop, many forests and fields where fireflies live are disappearing, B. Fireflies truly are nature’s tiny lanterns. C. Some of us have sweet memories of catching them on hot summer evenings. D. Here are some easy ways to help fireflies. E. Let’s work together to protect the beautiful glow for kids in the future. 【答案】46. C 47. B 48. A 49. D 50.

Around 4 p.m., dark clouds filled the sky and heavy rain began to fall. People who were enjoying their time in the park quickly ran to find shelter (n. 避难所; 遮蔽处). But a young boy did not move. He remained sitting alone at a stone chess table, completely lost in thought. For the next four hours, the rain continued without stopping. The boy stayed in the same place, getting wetter and wetter. His clothes were soaked, but he seemed not to notice. Many people walked by and saw him. Some stopped and watched from a distance, wondering what was wrong. Mrs. Chen, a local woman who often takes walks in the park, became worried. “I first saw him when the rain started,” she said. “Two hours later, when I passed by again, he was still there. I went over and asked if he needed an umbrella or some help. He didn’t answer. He just kept watching the empty chessboard in front of him.” Another visitor was so worried that he wanted to call the police, thinking the boy might be lost or afraid. Later, a man arrived at the park. He explained that he was Mr. Lee, the boy’s father. “We played chess here this morning,” Mr. Lee said. “My son lost the game because of one careless move. He was very close to winning. He wasn’t angry, but he needed time to think about what went wrong. When it comes to chess, he becomes so focused that he forgets everything else—even a heavy storm.” Finally, around 8 o’clock in the evening, the rain stopped. Mr. Lee helped his son stand up, and together they walked slowly out of the park. People who saw them leave felt a sense of relief (n. 宽慰; 安心). What had seemed like a worrying situation turned out to be a story of deep passion. The young boy wasn’t in trouble—he was simply lost in the game he loved. 31. What does the word “soaked” in Paragraph 2 probably mean in Chinese? A. 干净的 B. 湿透的 C. 破旧的 D. 时髦的 32. Why did the boy keep sitting in the heavy rain? A. He was afraid of his father. B. He wanted to catch others’ attention. C. He had no money to go home. D. He was thinking about his chess game. 33. What is the correct order of the following events according to the passage? a. Mr. Lee arrived and explained that his son was thinking about a chess game. b. People passing by noticed the boy and some tried to offer help. c. A boy remained sitting at a chess table when the rain started. d. The boy finally left the park with Mr. Lee. A. a→b→c→d B. b→c→a→d C. c→b→a→d D. d→c→b→a 34. Which of the following sayings can best describe the boy in the story? A. Every cloud has a silver lining. B. Where there is a will, there is a way. C. Actions speak louder than words. D. Nothing can stop true passion. 35. What is the best title for this passage? A. A Stormy Afternoon at the Park B. A Boy Who Forgot the Rain C. How to Become a Chess Master D. The Kindness of Strangers C Horses are special in Chinese culture. They stand for speed, success, and loyalty. In old times, horses were very important for travel, farming, and protecting the country. Even today, they still encourage us through language, art, and celebrations. There are many wise horse sayings in Chinese. For example, “An old horse knows the way” tells us experienced people can guide us well. “A thousand-mile horse” means a very talented person. Another famous saying is “A long road tests a horse’s strength, and time shows a person’s heart.” This teaches us that true character needs time to be seen. In races or games, a “dark horse” is someone who wins surprisingly. Horses also star in art and festivals. On November 25, 2025, “Lucky Horse”, the mascot (吉祥物) for the 2026 “Happy Chinese New Year” global celebrations, was introduced. The idea comes from two famous horses in old China. The first is a bronze statue called “Horse Stepping on a Flying Swallow (燕)”. It shows a horse running very fast. The second is the “Five-Flower Horse” from the Tang Dynasty. It is famous for its long, flowing mane (鬃毛). This design mixes these two ideas. It has the running speed of the first horse and the beautiful long hair of the second horse.

D Nowadays, we have many different kinds of technologies to protect us from different disasters. We can even know where and when some disasters, like the typhoon, the flood and the earthquake, happen. While most of the new technologies are far away from us, some around us can help people in disasters. The drone (无人机) is one of them. It can be used to send things like food and water when a natural disaster happens. It’s often too dangerous for the rescue teams to get into the buildings. So they make the drone fly into the buildings to search for those who are still alive. The drone is also a useful tool for firefighters to find and fight wildfires. In some faraway places in the world, drones are the fastest way to send medicine to people who are in great need of it. Social media platforms (平台) are also useful when it comes to natural disasters. With their help, people can know about the natural disasters before they hit. And some social media platforms allow people to mark themselves as safe after disasters, so others can know their situations. Social media platforms are also places for up-to-date news, so people can learn what is going on in disaster areas. Besides, many social media platforms allow people to donate (捐赠) money to help people in disaster areas. The money will help them get back to their normal life as soon as possible. For example, live streaming (直播) helped raise a lot of money for Henan after the flood in 2021. Although these technologies can help us a lot when there is a natural disaster, we still need to prepare necessary tools and learn important skills to protect ourselves. 41. What does the underlined word “they” in Paragraph 2 refer to? A. Drones. B. The rescue teams. C. The people in disaster areas. D. The social media platforms. 42. The drone can help do the following things EXCEPT __________. A. send food and water to people when a natural disaster happens B. fly into dangerous buildings to search for people still alive C. help firefighters find and fight against wildfires D. take injured people quickly to safe places during disasters 43.

Fireflies use their light to “talk”—not only to find mates, but also to protect their homes and drive away things that might hurt them. What’s special is that their light doesn’t make any heat. This “light” comes from two chemicals (化学物质) in their bodies—luciferin (荧光素) and luciferase (荧光素酶). When mixed with ATP (found in all living things) and O₂, they create the light. ____47____ Sadly, human activities are putting them in danger. One big problem is the loss of homes. ____48____ Another problem is light pollution. The light from homes, cars and street lamps makes it harder for fireflies to send signals (发信号) to each other during mating. This means fewer baby fireflies will be born next season. ____49____ First, turn off outdoor lights so that fireflies can send signals to each other freely. Also, leaving fallen trees, dead leaves, and natural waste in yards gives a good place for baby fireflies to grow. Since most fireflies live near still water, creating small ponds can bring them in. Most importantly, stop using too many pesticides (农药) which are bad for fireflies. Making these simple changes isn’t just about helping fireflies—it’s about keeping the magic of summer alive. ____50____. A. As cities and farms develop, many forests and fields where fireflies live are disappearing, B. Fireflies truly are nature’s tiny lanterns. C. Some of us have sweet memories of catching them on hot summer evenings. D. Here are some easy ways to help fireflies. E. Let’s work together to protect the beautiful glow for kids in the future.
