A 【解析】 【导语】本文介绍了四条提升交谈能力、学会好好聊天的实用技巧。 【1题详解】 句意：这里有一些让谈话更顺畅的技巧。 根据“it is time for you to learn some more conversation skills”可知，后文是具体的聊天方法，tips表示“小贴士，建议”，符合语境。examples例子、breaks休息、answers答案都不符合。 【2题详解】 句意：认真倾听并对他人表现出兴趣。 根据“you will find some good points to ask questions about”可知，第一条建议是“认真倾听”，副词carefully（认真地）修饰动词“listen”，符合语义。 【3题详解】 句意：如果你是一名好的倾听者，你会找到可以提问的切入点。 根据“One of the most important things is to listen to the person you speak to”可知，这里指“如果你是一个好的倾听者”，listener（倾听者）符合。 【4题详解】 句意：例如，如果有人告诉你他们的爱好，你可以就此提问，他们一定会乐意继续交谈下去。 如果你针对对方的爱好提问，对方肯定会乐意开心地继续对话，happy（开心的）符合逻辑。 【5题详解】 句意：询问别人年龄、体重等私人信息是不礼貌的。 根据常识，询问别人年龄、体重等私人信息是不礼貌的，impolite（不礼貌的）符合社交常识。 【6题详解】 句意：此外，如果你不认同别人，不要和他们争辩。 前文讲了选话题的第一个注意点，这里补充另一个注意点，Also（此外，还有）符合逻辑。 【7题详解】 句意：只需转到另一个话题即可。 固定搭配move on to表示“转换到、前进到”，这里指“转到另一个话题”。 【8题详解】 句意：如果你想让对方感到开心，可以提及对方的优点/长处。 固定搭配strong points表示“优点、强项”，这里指“提到对方的优点”，从而使对方感到开心。 【9题详解】 句意：不要刻意假装友善，因为人们会看出你没说实话。 前半句是建议，后半句是原因，解释为什么不能假装，because（因为）符合逻辑。 【10题详解】 句意：留意你的肢体语言。 固定搭配body language表示“肢体语言”，这里说沟通要注意肢体语言。 三、阅读理解阅读下列短文，选出最佳答案。（A、B、C篇为选择题，D篇为补全短文，每小题2分，共40分） A Have you ever choked (噎住) on something during a meal and been unable to breathe? Such a scary thing happened to a woman in a restaurant last August. Luckily, an 11-year-old girl came to help. When the adults didn’t know what to do, the girl acted fast and saved the woman. Let’s read the passage and see how she made it! An 11-year-old girl from Shenyang, Liaoning Province became a hero after she saved a woman from choking by using the Heimlich manoeuvre (海姆立克急救法) — just days after learning it. The event took place on 8th August, 2025, at a hot pot restaurant in Shenyang, and was recorded by the camera before going viral on social media. Ms. Wu was drinking milk tea when something went down the wrong way and got stuck in her throat. She suddenly couldn’t breathe, so she stood up, gesturing to her partner and restaurant staff (员工) that she needed some help. Her partner noticed that, and he tried patting her back. Restaurant staff also rushed to her side to help, but no one knew about first aid. At that moment, 11-year-old Hu Zihan, who was dining at a nearby table, rushed over. She stood behind Wu, put her arms around Wu’s stomach, and performed the Heimlich manoeuvre. Within 30 seconds, some tapioca pearls came out of Wu’s mouth, allowing her to breathe again. Wu quickly turned around and hugged Hu to thank her. Later, Wu said, “I kept trying to show what kind of help I needed, but nobody understood my body language. Thankfully, that little girl knew exactly what to do.” It is reported that Hu is a volunteer of the Liaoning Provincial Red Cross Society. She had just learnt the Heimlich manoeuvre during a training lesson seven days before. “The Red Cross says, ‘Everyone should learn first aid, because first aid is for everyone.’ In emergencies, knowing first aid can truly save lives,” Hu said. 11. Why weren’t the adults in the restaurant able to save the woman? A. Because they didn’t know about first aid at all. B. Because they didn’t notice what was happening. C. Because the woman showed the wrong body language. D. Because the restaurant was too noisy for them to hear the woman. 12. How long did it take Hu Zihan to help the woman breathe again? A. About 7 seconds. B. Less than 30 seconds. C. About 1 minute. D. More than 4 minutes. 13. Which words best describe Hu Zihan? A. Shy and quiet. B. Brave and helpful. C. Funny and active. D. Strict and serious. 14. What does the underlined word “emergencies” in the last paragraph probably mean? A. Daily and common activities. B. Interesting and happy moments. C. Boring and tiring experiences. D. Serious and dangerous situations. 15. Which is the best title for the passage? A. A Hotpot Restaurant in Shenyang B. The Importance of Drinking Milk Tea C. An 11-Year-Old Hero Saved a Life D. How to Become a Red Cross Volunteer 【答案】11. A 12. B 13. B 14. D 15. C 【解析】 【导语】本文介绍了沈阳一名11岁女孩，用刚学会的海姆立克急救法，救下餐厅被食物噎住的女士，还呼吁大家学急救。 【11题详解】 根据原文第三段末尾“...but no one knew about first aid”可知，成年人都不懂急救，所以没能救女士。 【12题详解】 原文第四段明确说“Within 30 seconds...allowing her to breathe again”，within 30 seconds意思是“在30秒之内”，也就是少于30秒。 【13题详解】 遇到紧急情况，11岁的胡子涵主动站出来用急救知识救人，说明她既勇敢又乐于助人。 【14题详解】 结合上下文，急救是用在突发危险的紧急情况中，emergencies指“紧急事件”，也就是严重危险的情况。 【15题详解】 文章核心内容是11岁女孩用学到的急救知识救了噎住的女士，所以“一个11岁英雄救了一条生命”最符合标题。 B The way to a truly restful vacation Travel can do wonders for your well-being: expanding your mind, bonding (联络感情) you to loved ones, and connecting you with nature. Still, it’s possible to arrive back home from a trip feeling more stressed than you were before you left. Keeping certain tips in mind as you plan and set out will help you better reap (获得) the benefits of travel. TAKE A FEW SHORT TRIPS INSTEAD OF A LONG ONE Because the positive effects of traveling fade (淡化) about a month after you return home—and because the planning process can make you happier than the trip itself—traveling more often could be key to improving mental health, says Laurence Chan, instructor of medical psychology at Columbia University. That means taking a few smaller trips may be better than taking one big trip, he says. TEMPORARILY DELETE OR MUTE APPS It’s hard, but put your phone away as much as possible—and consider deleting your work email app while you’re gone. Research has linked spending less time on one’s phone to a more relaxing vacation. HAVE A LOOSE PLAN If you want a relaxing vacation, don’t plan too many activities. But don’t plan too few, either, says Henley Vazquez, co-founder of the travel agency Fora. “Some people think, ‘I’ll just decide what to do when I get there,’” she explains. However, when there’s nothing planned, “we often end up just looking at our phones.” Her advice? “Plan about half a day’s worth of activities each day.” CUT YOUR TRIP A DAY SHORT Even though you might dream of spending 10 days sunbathing in Hawaii, nine would be better if it means you have a day of rest and recovery between your vacation and returning to work or school, experts say. GO FOR A HIKE OR A SWIM One study found that when people exercise on vacation—regardless of whether they do at home—they had improved sleep, heart rates, and well-being. Although a run on the hotel gym’s treadmill (跑步机) is good, it’s even better to break a sweat in nature, as exercising outdoors can lower anxiety and stress. 16. According to Laurence Chan, why might taking short trips be better than one long trip? A. Short trips make people forget work more easily. B. Short trips cost much less money than a long trip. C. The happiness of planning a trip can last for months. D. People feel happier planning trips than traveling itself. 17. What does the writer suggest doing with phone apps during a vacation? A. Remove or silence work email apps. B. Use them to take more photos. C. Download new travel apps. D. Share every moment online. 18. What does Henley Vazquez mean by “plan about half a day’s worth of activities each day”? A. Do nothing at all during the vacation. B. Plan some activities but leave free time. C. Fill the whole day with planned activities. D. Decide everything after arriving. 19. Why do experts suggest cutting a trip by one day? A. To save money for the next trip. B. Because nine-day trips are more fun than ten-day trips. C. Because traveling for ten days is too tiring for everyone. D. To have a day to rest before going back to work or school. 20. What does the study say about exercising on vacation? A. Swimming is the best vacation activity for sleep. B. Only people who exercise at home benefit from it. C. Exercising outdoors can help reduce worry and stress. D. Running on a treadmill is better than outdoor exercise. 【答案】16. D 17. A 18. B 19. D 20. C 【解析】 【导语】本文介绍了五条让假期真正放松、收获旅行益处的实用方法。 【16题详解】 第一个表格提到“the planning process can make you happier than the trip itself”，因此多次短途旅行意味着更多次“计划”的快乐，有助于提升心理健康。 【17题详解】 第二个表格明确建议“consider deleting your work email app while you’re gone”和“put your phone away as much as possible”，即删除或静音工作邮件应用，减少手机使用。 【18题详解】 第三个表格“don’t plan too many activities. But don’t plan too few”，Henley明确说不要计划太多活动，也不要完全不计划，“每天计划半天的活动”意思就是安排部分活动、预留空闲时间。 【19题详解】 第四个表格提到“nine would be better if it means you have a day of rest and recovery between your vacation and returning to work or school”，即提前一天回来，用于休息和调整，避免“假期结束即崩溃”。 【20题详解】 最后一个表格提到“exercising outdoors can lower anxiety and stress”，即在户外锻炼有助于减轻焦虑和压力。 C The New Year party was usually held at my aunt’s house and my favorite part was the apple cake. At the age of 10, when I first found out that my grandfather, who was never in the kitchen, was the master behind it, I was greatly surprised. And I thought that this was the perfect chance to get the recipe (制作方法), and that I could actually have a time to connect with him. Since then, I would go to my aunt’s early on the morning of New Year’s Day, and we’d make the cake together happily. I was amazed that Grandpa could peel an apple in one rind (皮). And we’d mix everything and put it into the oven. Once the cake was done, the house would immediately smell like apples. But as I got older, so did Grandpa. One New Year’s Day, as I was taking out the apples from the shopping bag cheerfully as usual, he looked at me and said, “Sophia, what are you doing?” I was shocked. I knew that he was beginning to forget things, but I didn’t think he would forget this. It was our tradition. It was our time of bonding. My heart ached. “We’re making the apple cake. You know, we always make a cake on New Year’s Day.” And he said, “Apple cake? Can you teach me?” Now, I was terrified. Still, I guided Grandpa in making the cake because I didn’t want this tradition to die. But the whole time it just didn’t feel the same. Fast-forward to this New Year, Grandpa was in hospital, and we’d have our family get together there. To bring a bit of comfort to the family, I decided to make the apple cake at home by myself. But I was doubting myself the whole time. I was afraid the cake was going to taste terrible because it didn’t have Grandpa’s touch. At the hospital, everyone was surrounding (围绕) him, creating some warmth. Grandpa looked down at the cake, and then looked back up at me and smiled. And I felt memories of our shared moments flooding back to him. Even though he was in hospital, it felt like we had made the cake together. 21. Why did Sophia feel terrified when Grandpa asked her to teach him to make the apple cake? A. Because her grandfather was angry with her. B. Because she forgot how to make the apple cake. C. Because she didn’t like making the cake anymore. D. Because she realized his memory was getting worse. 22. What can be inferred (推断) about the grandfather from the passage? A. He never liked cooking. B. He always cooked for the family. C. He and Sophia shared the same sweet memory. D. He taught Sophia how to peel apples in one rind. 23. How did Sophia feel when she made the cake alone for the hospital visit? A. Confident and happy. B. Worried and unsure. C. Angry and sad. D. Excited and proud. 24. What is the main purpose of the passage? A. To introduce a traditional New Year dish. B. To describe the process of making apple cake. C. To tell about a girl and her grandfather’s tradition. D. To explain why the grandfather forgot the recipe. 25. Which of the following shows the right order of what happened in the story? A. ④②①③ B. ②④③① C. ①②③④ D. ③④①② 【答案】21. D 22. C 23. B 24. C 25. A 【解析】 【导语】本文讲述作者和爷爷有新年一起做苹果蛋糕的专属传统，后来爷爷记忆力减退、慢慢忘记这件事，最后作者独自做好蛋糕去医院，留住了和爷爷之间的温暖回忆。 【21题详解】 第4段“I was shocked. I knew that he was beginning to forget things, but I didn’t think he would forget this.”以及第5段“Can you teach me?”爷爷已经忘记了和Sophia一起做苹果蛋糕的传统，还提出让Sophia教他，Sophia意识到爷爷的记忆力越来越差，所以感到害怕。 【22题详解】 根据第2段“…we’d make the cake together happily.”以及最后一段“…it felt like we had made the cake together.”这两处都表明了做蛋糕是他们之间共同的、甜蜜的传统和回忆。 【23题详解】 根据第7段“But I was doubting myself the whole time. I was afraid the cake was going to taste terrible…”提到Sophia独自做蛋糕时，一直怀疑自己，担心蛋糕没有爷爷的味道会不好吃，说明她是担心、不确定的。 【24题详解】 全文围绕Sophia和爷爷之间，新年一起做苹果蛋糕这个专属传统展开，讲述了这个传统的故事。 【25题详解】 故事的时间顺序是：一开始Sophia和爷爷一起做苹果蛋糕（对应图④）→爷爷年纪增大失忆，Sophia拿出苹果准备做蛋糕时，爷爷已经不记得这个传统（对应图②）→爷爷住院，Sophia决定自己在家做蛋糕（对应图①）→Sophia把做好的蛋糕带到医院给爷爷，爷爷看到蛋糕露出微笑（对应图③），顺序为④②①③。 D “For your safety, please ride bicycles in the non-motorized lane (非机动车道),” a voice calls out to a cyclist riding into the motor vehicle lane at a busy crossing in Wuhu City, Anhui Province. The voice doesn’t come from a human traffic officer. Instead, it’s from a humanoid robot (仿真机器人) standing in the middle of the road. The robot officer is wearing a police uniform, a bright safety vest (背心), and a white hat. From far away, it looks very much like a real person. ____26____ People walking by often stop to take pictures of it, making the street look like something from a science fiction movie. The robot is called Intelligent Police Unit R001. ____27____ It can make common traffic hand signals (信号), and its movements change to match the traffic lights. ____28____ With computer programs, it can recognize when bicycles, electric bikes, or motor vehicles break traffic rules and give a warning in time. ____29____ It is expected to help make the work easier for police officers. It can be especially helpful during the busiest times of a day or when the weather is very bad. ____30____ In June, 2025, Chengdu in Sichuan Province sent out a group of robot traffic officers to help human officers patrol (巡逻) the streets. In December, 2025, Hangzhou in Zhejiang Province also began using a humanoid robot traffic officer for daily tasks. 根据短文内容，从下列选项中选出能填入文中空白处的最佳选项，选项中有一项为多余选项。 A. The robot can work around the clock. B. The robot has cameras and a smart voice system. C. And it is connected to the city’s traffic light system. D. When you get closer, you can see its metal body and modern look. E. Usually grouped in pairs, these robots go out every two to three hours. F. Last year, a number of Chinese cities started using robot traffic officers in their police work. 【答案】26. D 27. C 28. B 29. A 30. F 【解析】 【导语】本文主要介绍了机器人的外观、功能以及在其他城市的应用。 【26题详解】 空格前提到远看这个机器人很像真人，D选项“When you get closer, you can see its metal body and modern look.”，符合从远到近的描述逻辑。 【27题详解】 空格后提到机器人的动作会随红绿灯变化，C选项“And it is connected to the city’s traffic light system.”，正好衔接后文内容。 【28题详解】 空格后提到机器人可以识别违规车辆并及时发出警告，B选项“The robot has cameras and a smart voice system.”，解释了机器人实现该功能的基础。 【29题详解】 空格后提到机器人可以帮助交警减轻工作，在出行高峰和恶劣天气作用尤其大，A选项“The robot can work around the clock.”，点出机器人的工作优势，符合语境。 【30题详解】 空格后列举了成都、杭州多个城市投入使用机器人交警的例子，F选项“Last year, a number of Chinese cities started using robot traffic officers in their police work.”总起下文，引出举例。 第Ⅱ卷（50分） 四、短文填空（每小题1分，共10分） 根据上下文或括号内提示填入正确的单词。 If you’re laughing during your English lesson, that’s probably a good thing.

Also, research has found that humour helps our brains feel good, making us want to learn and remember ____35____ (well), and that works for any subject! Humour can be a test of your language skills, ____36____. Understanding jokes ____37____ (require) not just some basic knowledge of words and sentences — you need to know why they’re funny! For example, a lot of jokes are based on wordplay (双关语), ____38____ the listener may need to know more than one meaning of a word to understand the jokes. It’s no surprise that both students and teachers expect some humour ____39____ language lessons. But what kinds of jokes are the most popular? One study asked nearly 250 foreign language ____40____ (learn) what they thought. The researchers found that students really liked it when teachers made funny comments during lessons. Students also liked funny cartoons and memes (网络梗). 【答案】31. a 32. reasons 33. more easily 34. encourages 35. better 36. too 37. requires 38. so 39. in##during 40. learners 【解析】 【导语】本文主要讲了幽默在语言学习中的作用。 【31题详解】 句意：此外，还能让课堂变得更有趣，幽默可以成为一种很好的语言学习工具。此处泛指“一个好的语言学习工具”，tool是可数名词单数，good以辅音音素开头，填不定冠词a。 【32题详解】 句意：首先，有充分的理由要在语言课堂保持低压力。there be句型中be动词为复数are，reason是可数名词，用复数形式reasons。 【33题详解】 句意：人们放松时学语言、使用语言会更容易。此处修饰动词“learn”和“use”，需用副词；且文段将放松与紧张状态下的学习效果对比，需用比较级，故填easy的副词比较级more easily。 【34题详解】 句意：在课堂上，分享一则笑话有助于师生营造友好的课堂氛围，这种氛围能够增强自信心。that引导定语从句修饰单数可数名词“atmosphere”，一般现在时中谓语动词用第三人称单数形式encourages。 【35题详解】 句意：此外，研究发现幽默能让我们的大脑感到愉悦，从而让我们更愿意学习且记忆效果更佳，这一点适用于任何学科！此处隐含和无幽默的学习状态对比，表示“记得更好”，用well的比较级better。 【36题详解】 句意：幽默也能考验你的语言能力。前文讲了幽默的好处，这里话锋一转，说它也是一种对语言技能的考验。位于句末，用逗号隔开，表示“也”，故填too。 【37题详解】 句意：理解笑话需要的不只是基础的词句知识——你还得明白它们有趣的缘由！动名词短语“Understanding jokes”作主语，一般现在时中谓语动词用第三人称单数形式requires。 【38题详解】 句意：例如，很多笑话都基于双关语创作，所以听者要知道单词多层含义。前半句说明很多笑话基于双关语，后半句说明听者需要懂单词多义才能理解笑话，前后为因果关系，故填so。 【39题详解】 句意：师生都期待语言课堂上能有一些幽默元素，这并不奇怪。表示“在语言课程中”，填介词in/during。 【40题详解】 句意：一项研究询问了近250名外语学习者的看法。此处表示“外语学习者”，空前有数字250修饰，用可数名词复数learners。 五、阅读表达阅读短文，根据短文内容完成后面的问题。（25分） A “Excuse me, may I have a purple crayon, please?” five-year-old Leah asked a nurse. “I want to colour the butterfly.” “Sorry, but I can’t find one,” said the nurse. “I’m afraid you’ll have to draw a grey butterfly.” This conversation happened in a waiting room at Sunshine Hospital. The hospital provided colouring books for young patients. But there were never enough crayons. Why? Well, crayons may carry viruses and spread diseases. They can only be used once. Then they must be thrown away. The hospital had many new patients every day. It just couldn’t afford new crayons for every child. Leah was born with a serious disease, and she made many hospital visits. “A lot of the time she’s in great pain,” her mum said. “But colouring has helped her get through it.” Leah didn’t want other young patients to feel her disappointment. “It can be boring to wait for X-rays and treatments. I want them to feel good,” she said. “There must be something for me to do.” Leah planned to buy 500 boxes of crayons for the hospital. However, all her pocket money was only enough for about 40 boxes. Because of her illness, she couldn’t do chores for money, either. It might sound impossible, but Leah didn’t give up. With the help of her family and friends, she held many activities to raise money. And she would always be there in her wheelchair. Word spread fast, and Leah’s story went public. So far, she has collected 2,675 boxes. “She is a kind girl,” said one nurse. “She’s added colour to this hospital. The waiting rooms are now filled with happier kids and brighter pictures!” 根据短文内容完成图表，每空不超过3个词。 A little life colourer Problem Leah was born with ____41____ and made many ____42____.

So the hospital ____46____ new crayons for every child. ____47____ Leah decided to help out. She ____48____ to raise money with the help of her family and friends. Soon her story ____49____. Many people gave a hand. And she has collected 2,675 boxes. Comments（评价） Leah is a kind and ____50____ girl. With her efforts, the waiting rooms are now filled with happier kids and brighter pictures! 【答案】41. a serious disease 42. hospital visits 43. asked for 44. colouring books 45. spread diseases 46. couldn’t afford 47. Solutions 48. held many activities ##organized many activities 49. went public/became famous/… 50. helpful/clever/caring/warm-hearted/capable /… 【解析】 【导语】短文讲述了患有重病的小女孩Leah为了让医院里的小病友们能开心一点，努力筹集资金购买蜡笔的感人故事。 【41题详解】 第四段第一句“Leah was born with a serious disease...”明确提到她患有“一种严重的疾病”，因此第一空应填a serious disease。 【42题详解】 第四段第一句“…and she made many hospital visits.”直接给出了短语“hospital visits”（去医院看病/探访），因此第二空应填hospital visits。 【43题详解】 第一段“…Leah asked a nurse. ‘I want to colour the butterfly.’”，Leah向护士请求要紫色蜡笔，因此第三空应填asked for。 【44题详解】 第三段“The hospital provided colouring books for young patients.” ，原文直接对应“colouring books”（涂色书），因此第四空应填colouring books。 【45题详解】 第三段“Well, crayons may carry viruses and spread diseases.”，原文中“spread diseases”（传播疾病）与“carry viruses”并列，正好填入，因此第五空应填spread diseases。 【46题详解】 第三段“It just couldn’t afford new crayons for every child.”，原文中的“couldn’t afford”（负担不起）直接对应空格，因此第六空应填couldn’t afford。 【47题详解】 前一部分讲的是“问题”和“原因”，后一部分讲的是Leah如何筹款、如何解决问题。因此，这一栏的标题应该是“Solutions”（解决办法/解决方案）。 【48题详解】 第六段“...she held many activities to raise money.”，原文中的“held many activities”（举办了许多活动）是核心动作，因此第八空应填held/organized many activities。 【49题详解】 第六段“...and Leah’s story went public.”，原文直接使用了短语“went public”（公开/公之于众），意味着大家都知道了/她的故事出名了。可以用went public/became famous/…等表达。 【50题详解】 最后一段“She is a kind girl…She’s added colour to this hospital.” ，题目需要一个形容词来形容Leah，且要和“kind”并列。虽然原文只说了“kind”，但根据她帮助别人的行为，可用helpful/clever/caring/warm-hearted/capable/…来描述。 B Hi Diana, It’s so great to hear from you. Life in Paris is pretty good! I was a little lonely at first, but I’m starting to make some friends. They helped me to learn more about the customs here after I had some embarrassing experiences at a party last month. I’d like to share some tips with you. First, you shouldn’t arrive early to a party. It’s normal to be on time or a few minutes late, but arriving early can cause problems. Once, I arrived 10 minutes early to a party. Usually that’s the polite thing to do, right? But my friend looked so surprised to see me! He was still getting everything ready. Second, it’s important to bring a gift when you visit someone. When I attended my friend’s party, I didn’t bring anything. It wasn’t his birthday, but everyone else brought gifts like chocolates or flowers to thank him for the party. I was so embarrassed! Third, you should always try to dress for the occasion. At that party it was surprising to see how nicely everyone was dressed. It was summer, so I was just wearing a simple blouse and shorts. But everyone else was dressed so well that I felt silly. Fourth, it’s best not to ask personal questions unless you know the person quite well. Many French people are quite private. They don’t like it when others ask them about their age, their family, whether they are married, or how much money they make. Food and culture, however, are safe conversation topics. Last but not least, make sure you use French whenever you can. Lots of people speak English here, but you can develop closer relationships with them if you use French. It’s very important in their culture. I found that even a simple “merci” goes a long way! You’ll see what I mean as soon as you get here! Au revoir! Nancy 51. List the three mistakes that Nancy made at her friends’ parties. ① __________________________________________________________________________________________ ② __________________________________________________________________________________________ ③ __________________________________________________________________________________________ 52. Which conversation topics are safe to talk about with French people you don’t know well? ________________________________________ 53. Imagine that you are Diana, write one sentence to reply to Nancy’s advice about using French. Thank you for the tip. I will ________________________________________. 54. What can you learn from Nancy’s experience of living in a new country? (不超过20词) ________________________________________ 【答案】51. ①. She arrived 10 minutes early to a party. ②. She didn’t bring anything to a party. ③. She didn’t dress for the occasion./She wore the wrong clothes. 52. Food and culture. 53. try to say “merci” (and “bonjour”) more often when I meet French people. 54. It’s important to respect local customs, learn from mistakes, and try to use the local language to build better relationships./... 【解析】 【导语】本文介绍了Nancy在巴黎，用自己的派对尴尬经历，分享法国聚会礼仪和聊天禁忌。 【51题详解】 根据第2段“Once, I arrived 10 minutes early to a party.”可知，错误①：她到得太早了；根据第3段“When I attended my friend’s party, I didn’t bring anything.”可知，错误②：她没带礼物；根据第4段“...I was just wearing a simple blouse and shorts.”可知，错误③：她穿得太随意。 【52题详解】 根据第5段“Food and culture, however, are safe conversation topics.”可知，原文明确指出不熟悉的法国人之间聊天的安全话题是食物和文化。 【53题详解】 这是一个开放性填空题，可结合第6段的内容：尽量用法语，哪怕是一句简单的“merci”。 【54题详解】 结合Nancy的经历，核心观点为入乡随俗，符合字数要求即可。 六、书面表达（15分） 55. 假如你是Teng Fei，你的英国朋友Grace想了解中国的传统节日以及庆典习俗。请你用英语写一封邮件，介绍你最喜欢的一个中国传统节日。 要求： 1．包含所有要点，可适当发挥； 2．文中不得出现真实校名和人名； 3．词数80~100。 Dear Grace, ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Hope to hear from you soon.

Such a scary thing happened to a woman in a restaurant last August. Luckily, an 11-year-old girl came to help. When the adults didn’t know what to do, the girl acted fast and saved the woman. Let’s read the passage and see how she made it! An 11-year-old girl from Shenyang, Liaoning Province became a hero after she saved a woman from choking by using the Heimlich manoeuvre (海姆立克急救法) — just days after learning it. The event took place on 8th August, 2025, at a hot pot restaurant in Shenyang, and was recorded by the camera before going viral on social media. Ms. Wu was drinking milk tea when something went down the wrong way and got stuck in her throat. She suddenly couldn’t breathe, so she stood up, gesturing to her partner and restaurant staff (员工) that she needed some help. Her partner noticed that, and he tried patting her back. Restaurant staff also rushed to her side to help, but no one knew about first aid. At that moment, 11-year-old Hu Zihan, who was dining at a nearby table, rushed over. She stood behind Wu, put her arms around Wu’s stomach, and performed the Heimlich manoeuvre. Within 30 seconds, some tapioca pearls came out of Wu’s mouth, allowing her to breathe again. Wu quickly turned around and hugged Hu to thank her. Later, Wu said, “I kept trying to show what kind of help I needed, but nobody understood my body language. Thankfully, that little girl knew exactly what to do.” It is reported that Hu is a volunteer of the Liaoning Provincial Red Cross Society. She had just learnt the Heimlich manoeuvre during a training lesson seven days before. “The Red Cross says, ‘Everyone should learn first aid, because first aid is for everyone.’ In emergencies, knowing first aid can truly save lives,” Hu said. 11. Why weren’t the adults in the restaurant able to save the woman? A. Because they didn’t know about first aid at all. B. Because they didn’t notice what was happening. C. Because the woman showed the wrong body language. D. Because the restaurant was too noisy for them to hear the woman. 12. How long did it take Hu Zihan to help the woman breathe again? A. About 7 seconds. B. Less than 30 seconds. C. About 1 minute. D. More than 4 minutes. 13. Which words best describe Hu Zihan? A. Shy and quiet. B. Brave and helpful. C. Funny and active. D. Strict and serious. 14. What does the underlined word “emergencies” in the last paragraph probably mean? A. Daily and common activities. B. Interesting and happy moments. C. Boring and tiring experiences. D. Serious and dangerous situations. 15. Which is the best title for the passage? A. A Hotpot Restaurant in Shenyang B. The Importance of Drinking Milk Tea C. An 11-Year-Old Hero Saved a Life D. How to Become a Red Cross Volunteer B The way to a truly restful vacation Travel can do wonders for your well-being: expanding your mind, bonding (联络感情) you to loved ones, and connecting you with nature. Still, it’s possible to arrive back home from a trip feeling more stressed than you were before you left. Keeping certain tips in mind as you plan and set out will help you better reap (获得) the benefits of travel. TAKE A FEW SHORT TRIPS INSTEAD OF A LONG ONE Because the positive effects of traveling fade (淡化) about a month after you return home—and because the planning process can make you happier than the trip itself—traveling more often could be key to improving mental health, says Laurence Chan, instructor of medical psychology at Columbia University. That means taking a few smaller trips may be better than taking one big trip, he says. TEMPORARILY DELETE OR MUTE APPS It’s hard, but put your phone away as much as possible—and consider deleting your work email app while you’re gone. Research has linked spending less time on one’s phone to a more relaxing vacation. HAVE A LOOSE PLAN If you want a relaxing vacation, don’t plan too many activities. But don’t plan too few, either, says Henley Vazquez, co-founder of the travel agency Fora. “Some people think, ‘I’ll just decide what to do when I get there,’” she explains. However, when there’s nothing planned, “we often end up just looking at our phones.” Her advice? “Plan about half a day’s worth of activities each day.” CUT YOUR TRIP A DAY SHORT Even though you might dream of spending 10 days sunbathing in Hawaii, nine would be better if it means you have a day of rest and recovery between your vacation and returning to work or school, experts say. GO FOR A HIKE OR A SWIM One study found that when people exercise on vacation—regardless of whether they do at home—they had improved sleep, heart rates, and well-being. Although a run on the hotel gym’s treadmill (跑步机) is good, it’s even better to break a sweat in nature, as exercising outdoors can lower anxiety and stress. 16. According to Laurence Chan, why might taking short trips be better than one long trip? A. Short trips make people forget work more easily. B. Short trips cost much less money than a long trip. C. The happiness of planning a trip can last for months. D. People feel happier planning trips than traveling itself. 17. What does the writer suggest doing with phone apps during a vacation? A. Remove or silence work email apps. B. Use them to take more photos. C. Download new travel apps. D. Share every moment online. 18. What does Henley Vazquez mean by “plan about half a day’s worth of activities each day”? A. Do nothing at all during the vacation. B. Plan some activities but leave free time. C. Fill the whole day with planned activities. D. Decide everything after arriving. 19. Why do experts suggest cutting a trip by one day? A. To save money for the next trip. B. Because nine-day trips are more fun than ten-day trips. C. Because traveling for ten days is too tiring for everyone. D. To have a day to rest before going back to work or school. 20. What does the study say about exercising on vacation? A. Swimming is the best vacation activity for sleep. B. Only people who exercise at home benefit from it. C. Exercising outdoors can help reduce worry and stress. D. Running on a treadmill is better than outdoor exercise. C The New Year party was usually held at my aunt’s house and my favorite part was the apple cake. At the age of 10, when I first found out that my grandfather, who was never in the kitchen, was the master behind it, I was greatly surprised. And I thought that this was the perfect chance to get the recipe (制作方法), and that I could actually have a time to connect with him. Since then, I would go to my aunt’s early on the morning of New Year’s Day, and we’d make the cake together happily. I was amazed that Grandpa could peel an apple in one rind (皮). And we’d mix everything and put it into the oven. Once the cake was done, the house would immediately smell like apples. But as I got older, so did Grandpa. One New Year’s Day, as I was taking out the apples from the shopping bag cheerfully as usual, he looked at me and said, “Sophia, what are you doing?” I was shocked. I knew that he was beginning to forget things, but I didn’t think he would forget this. It was our tradition. It was our time of bonding. My heart ached. “We’re making the apple cake. You know, we always make a cake on New Year’s Day.” And he said, “Apple cake? Can you teach me?” Now, I was terrified. Still, I guided Grandpa in making the cake because I didn’t want this tradition to die. But the whole time it just didn’t feel the same. Fast-forward to this New Year, Grandpa was in hospital, and we’d have our family get together there. To bring a bit of comfort to the family, I decided to make the apple cake at home by myself. But I was doubting myself the whole time. I was afraid the cake was going to taste terrible because it didn’t have Grandpa’s touch. At the hospital, everyone was surrounding (围绕) him, creating some warmth. Grandpa looked down at the cake, and then looked back up at me and smiled. And I felt memories of our shared moments flooding back to him. Even though he was in hospital, it felt like we had made the cake together. 21. Why did Sophia feel terrified when Grandpa asked her to teach him to make the apple cake? A. Because her grandfather was angry with her. B. Because she forgot how to make the apple cake. C. Because she didn’t like making the cake anymore. D. Because she realized his memory was getting worse. 22. What can be inferred (推断) about the grandfather from the passage? A. He never liked cooking. B. He always cooked for the family. C. He and Sophia shared the same sweet memory. D. He taught Sophia how to peel apples in one rind. 23. How did Sophia feel when she made the cake alone for the hospital visit? A. Confident and happy. B. Worried and unsure. C. Angry and sad. D. Excited and proud. 24. What is the main purpose of the passage? A. To introduce a traditional New Year dish. B. To describe the process of making apple cake. C. To tell about a girl and her grandfather’s tradition. D. To explain why the grandfather forgot the recipe. 25. Which of the following shows the right order of what happened in the story? A. ④②①③ B. ②④③① C. ①②③④ D. ③④①② D “For your safety, please ride bicycles in the non-motorized lane (非机动车道),” a voice calls out to a cyclist riding into the motor vehicle lane at a busy crossing in Wuhu City, Anhui Province. The voice doesn’t come from a human traffic officer. Instead, it’s from a humanoid robot (仿真机器人) standing in the middle of the road. The robot officer is wearing a police uniform, a bright safety vest (背心), and a white hat. From far away, it looks very much like a real person. ____26____ People walking by often stop to take pictures of it, making the street look like something from a science fiction movie. The robot is called Intelligent Police Unit R001. ____27____ It can make common traffic hand signals (信号), and its movements change to match the traffic lights. ____28____ With computer programs, it can recognize when bicycles, electric bikes, or motor vehicles break traffic rules and give a warning in time. ____29____ It is expected to help make the work easier for police officers. It can be especially helpful during the busiest times of a day or when the weather is very bad. ____30____ In June, 2025, Chengdu in Sichuan Province sent out a group of robot traffic officers to help human officers patrol (巡逻) the streets. In December, 2025, Hangzhou in Zhejiang Province also began using a humanoid robot traffic officer for daily tasks. 根据短文内容，从下列选项中选出能填入文中空白处的最佳选项，选项中有一项为多余选项。 A. The robot can work around the clock. B. The robot has cameras and a smart voice system. C. And it is connected to the city’s traffic light system. D. When you get closer, you can see its metal body and modern look. E. Usually grouped in pairs, these robots go out every two to three hours. F. Last year, a number of Chinese cities started using robot traffic officers in their police work. 第Ⅱ卷（50分） 四、短文填空（每小题1分，共10分） 根据上下文或括号内提示填入正确的单词。 If you’re laughing during your English lesson, that’s probably a good thing. Besides making a class more fun, humour can be ____31____ good language learning tool. First, there are good ____32____ (reason) to keep stress levels low in the language classroom. People usually learn a language and use it much ____33____ (easy) when they are relaxed — and what reduces stress more effectively than laughter? And in a class, sharing a joke can help students and teachers build a friendly atmosphere (氛围) that ____34____ (encourage) confidence. Also, research has found that humour helps our brains feel good, making us want to learn and remember ____35____ (well), and that works for any subject! Humour can be a test of your language skills, ____36____. Understanding jokes ____37____ (require) not just some basic knowledge of words and sentences — you need to know why they’re funny! For example, a lot of jokes are based on wordplay (双关语), ____38____ the listener may need to know more than one meaning of a word to understand the jokes. It’s no surprise that both students and teachers expect some humour ____39____ language lessons. But what kinds of jokes are the most popular? One study asked nearly 250 foreign language ____40____ (learn) what they thought. The researchers found that students really liked it when teachers made funny comments during lessons. Students also liked funny cartoons and memes (网络梗). 五、阅读表达阅读短文，根据短文内容完成后面的问题。（25分） A “Excuse me, may I have a purple crayon, please?” five-year-old Leah asked a nurse. “I want to colour the butterfly.” “Sorry, but I can’t find one,” said the nurse. “I’m afraid you’ll have to draw a grey butterfly.” This conversation happened in a waiting room at Sunshine Hospital. The hospital provided colouring books for young patients. But there were never enough crayons. Why? Well, crayons may carry viruses and spread diseases. They can only be used once. Then they must be thrown away. The hospital had many new patients every day. It just couldn’t afford new crayons for every child. Leah was born with a serious disease, and she made many hospital visits. “A lot of the time she’s in great pain,” her mum said. “But colouring has helped her get through it.” Leah didn’t want other young patients to feel her disappointment. “It can be boring to wait for X-rays and treatments. I want them to feel good,” she said. “There must be something for me to do.” Leah planned to buy 500 boxes of crayons for the hospital. However, all her pocket money was only enough for about 40 boxes. Because of her illness, she couldn’t do chores for money, either. It might sound impossible, but Leah didn’t give up. With the help of her family and friends, she held many activities to raise money. And she would always be there in her wheelchair. Word spread fast, and Leah’s story went public. So far, she has collected 2,675 boxes. “She is a kind girl,” said one nurse. “She’s added colour to this hospital. The waiting rooms are now filled with happier kids and brighter pictures!” 根据短文内容完成图表，每空不超过3个词。 A little life colourer Problem Leah was born with ____41____ and made many ____42____. One day, she ____43____ a purple crayon to color the butterfly, but the nurse said there wasn’t a crayon. Causes ◎ Sunshine Hospital provided ____44____ for young patients. ◎ Crayons may carry viruses and ____45____. They can be used only once. The hospital had many new patients every day. So the hospital ____46____ new crayons for every child. ____47____ Leah decided to help out. She ____48____ to raise money with the help of her family and friends. Soon her story ____49____. Many people gave a hand. And she has collected 2,675 boxes. Comments（评价） Leah is a kind and ____50____ girl. With her efforts, the waiting rooms are now filled with happier kids and brighter pictures! B Hi Diana, It’s so great to hear from you. Life in Paris is pretty good! I was a little lonely at first, but I’m starting to make some friends. They helped me to learn more about the customs here after I had some embarrassing experiences at a party last month. I’d like to share some tips with you. First, you shouldn’t arrive early to a party. It’s normal to be on time or a few minutes late, but arriving early can cause problems. Once, I arrived 10 minutes early to a party. Usually that’s the polite thing to do, right? But my friend looked so surprised to see me! He was still getting everything ready. Second, it’s important to bring a gift when you visit someone. When I attended my friend’s party, I didn’t bring anything. It wasn’t his birthday, but everyone else brought gifts like chocolates or flowers to thank him for the party. I was so embarrassed! Third, you should always try to dress for the occasion. At that party it was surprising to see how nicely everyone was dressed. It was summer, so I was just wearing a simple blouse and shorts. But everyone else was dressed so well that I felt silly. Fourth, it’s best not to ask personal questions unless you know the person quite well. Many French people are quite private. They don’t like it when others ask them about their age, their family, whether they are married, or how much money they make. Food and culture, however, are safe conversation topics. Last but not least, make sure you use French whenever you can. Lots of people speak English here, but you can develop closer relationships with them if you use French. It’s very important in their culture. I found that even a simple “merci” goes a long way! You’ll see what I mean as soon as you get here! Au revoir! Nancy 51.
