B I’m Thomas from the United Kingdom, working in Beijing, and I’m a shopping addict (迷). The main source of my addiction is Taobao, China’s massive online shopping platform — a place for everything from clothes to books, and everything in between. It makes Amazon look like a corner shop. My favorite is mostly books and different kinds of water bottles. My cupboard has a shelf full of them, many of which my size will no longer allow me to crowd into. What’s worse is that the app’s very clever algorithms (算法) track what I look through, so every time I open it on my phone, I am greeted by an advertisement inviting me to dip deeper into my digital wallet. I don’t even have to open the app. They are available to purchase with just a tap of my finger. Once you make an order, you need to wait. The shipping gives your heart a little hit. Then there’s another little rush of endorphins (内啡肽) when the delivery person picks it up. You watch your package edging its way up the map to Beijing. When the app tells you it’s on the delivery bike, the same excitement as a kid on Christmas morning takes hold as you wait for the knock at the door. Much like a little dog waiting for its master to return home from work. The packaging is eagerly removed, exciting another hit of happiness. An hour later, the buyer’s regret comes. To make yourself feel better, you start using the app once more and the cycle starts all over again. I could blame (责备) my addiction on Jack Ma, founder of Alibaba, Taobao’s parent company, or point a finger at Liu Qiangdong, founder of JD, a similarly addictive domestic shopping app. I could even blame Amazon founder Jeff Bezos, who started all this e-commerce. “Surely, Thomas,” I hear you ask, “instead of blaming poor billionaires, you should take responsibility for your own sudden desire and lack of willpower.” 6. Why is Thomas crazy about Taobao? A. It helps bring in money. B. He prefers online platforms. C. It offers multiple item options. D. Amazon is too distant to access. 7. How can Thomas’s phone know what he prefers? A. His digital wallet pays for it automatically. B. He searches online when he opens the phone. C. He communicates with the Taobao business owner. D. The app’s algorithms follow his digital footprints. 8. What is paragraph 4 mainly about? A. The author’s expectation of the purchased item. B. The challenges of online shopping. C. The long journey of a purchased item. D. The accuracy of the shopping app. 9. What does the author want to convey in this passage? A. We should say no to e-commerce. B. We should blame Taobao. C. We should be responsible for our purchasing. D. We should admire billionaires. 10. What can we infer about Thomas from the passage? A. He has a strong will against online shopping. B. He finds himself trapped in the shopping cycle. C. He seldom feels happy when receiving the goods. D. He has stopped using online shopping apps. C In 2021, scientists studying animal communication discovered that some dogs connect objects with words similarly to babies. Then what about cats, which are commonly believed to be unconcerned about human affairs? Saho Takagi, a researcher at Azabu University, doubted cats’ seeming unconcern. “Cats don’t appear to listen to people’s conversations, but in fact, they do,” said Takagi. According to previous research, cats understand human communication better than expected. Like dogs, they can use human pointing and stares to find food. They even can tell the difference between human facial expressions and states of attention, according to a 2016 study. However, cats can do more than that. Another study showed that cats can discriminate their own names from the names of their cat companions (those that live in the same house). The researchers believed that cats learned to connect names with other cats by observing communication between their owners and their cat friends. In a recently published study, Takagi and her colleagues compared two groups of cats: cats living with at least two other cats and cats living in “cat cafés” with up to 30 cats. Using a simple two-phase (阶段) test, they assessed the cats’ responses to hearing their names and seeing their faces on a monitor: Sometimes, the cat that appeared on the screen matched the name spoken; other times, the name and the image did not match. If cats knew the names of their cat friends, they would investigate by staring doubtfully at the monitor when the name and image did not match. House cats had a significantly longer stare than café cats, indicating that house cats generally expected a specific cat’s face upon hearing the cat’s name. “This is the first evidence showing that house cats link human words and their social companions through daily experiences,” the researchers wrote. “However, we could not recognize the mechanism (机制) for learning. But with more and more scientists becoming interested in cats, who are much smarter than we assume, this question is sure to be solved.” 11. What’s people’s common understanding of cats? A. They have their own language. B. They can connect objects with words. C. They show no interest in human things. D. They can use human instructions to find food. 12. By comparing cats and dogs in Paragraph 2, the author wants to stress ________. A. Cats and dogs are all clever animals. B. Cats’ ability to learn is stronger than dogs’. C. Cats and dogs can get along well with humans. D. Cats’ ability goes beyond recognizing body language. 13. Which of the following can replace the underlined word “discriminate” in Paragraph 3? A. Choose. B. Protect. C. Tell. D. Learn. 14. What is the unsettled question of the study? A. How cats can recognize other cats’ face. B. Whether cats are much smarter than expected. C. Whether cats can understand human communication. D. How cats link human words and their social companions. 15. Which can be the best title for the text? A. Dogs: Cleverer than Cats in Learning. B. House Cats vs Café Cats: A New Test C. Cats: Smarter than We Think D. Ways of Cats Communicating with Humans 第二节 (共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 How to Get Along with Friends Movies and TV shows make friendships seem effortless with little conflict, but real-life friendships require effort and can be complicated. ____16____ Be positive.

Then there’s another little rush of endorphins (内啡肽) when the delivery person picks it up. You watch your package edging its way up the map to Beijing. When the app tells you it’s on the delivery bike, the same excitement as a kid on Christmas morning takes hold as you wait for the knock at the door. Much like a little dog waiting for its master to return home from work. The packaging is eagerly removed, exciting another hit of happiness. An hour later, the buyer’s regret comes. To make yourself feel better, you start using the app once more and the cycle starts all over again. I could blame (责备) my addiction on Jack Ma, founder of Alibaba, Taobao’s parent company, or point a finger at Liu Qiangdong, founder of JD, a similarly addictive domestic shopping app. I could even blame Amazon founder Jeff Bezos, who started all this e-commerce. “Surely, Thomas,” I hear you ask, “instead of blaming poor billionaires, you should take responsibility for your own sudden desire and lack of willpower.” 6. Why is Thomas crazy about Taobao? A. It helps bring in money. B. He prefers online platforms. C. It offers multiple item options. D. Amazon is too distant to access. 7. How can Thomas’s phone know what he prefers? A. His digital wallet pays for it automatically. B. He searches online when he opens the phone. C. He communicates with the Taobao business owner. D. The app’s algorithms follow his digital footprints. 8. What is paragraph 4 mainly about? A. The author’s expectation of the purchased item. B. The challenges of online shopping. C. The long journey of a purchased item. D. The accuracy of the shopping app. 9. What does the author want to convey in this passage? A. We should say no to e-commerce. B. We should blame Taobao. C. We should be responsible for our purchasing. D. We should admire billionaires. 10. What can we infer about Thomas from the passage? A. He has a strong will against online shopping. B. He finds himself trapped in the shopping cycle. C. He seldom feels happy when receiving the goods. D. He has stopped using online shopping apps. 【答案】6. C 7. D 8. A 9. C 10. B 【解析】 【导语】文章主要讲述了来自英国的Thomas在北京工作，是一个购物迷，尤其沉迷于淘宝这一中国的在线购物平台，描述了他的购物经历、感受以及由此引发的思考。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“The main source of my addiction is Taobao, China’s massive online shopping platform — a place for everything from clothes to books, and everything in between. It makes Amazon look like a corner shop.(我上瘾的主要来源是淘宝，中国庞大的在线购物平台——从衣服到书籍，应有尽有。它让亚马逊看起来像一家街角小店)”可知，Thomas对淘宝如此着迷是因为淘宝提供了多种多样的商品选择。 【7题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“What’s worse is that the app’s very clever algorithms (算法) track what I look through, so every time I open it on my phone, I am greeted by an advertisement inviting me to dip deeper into my digital wallet.(更糟糕的是，这款应用极其精明的算法会追踪我的浏览内容。因此，每次我在手机上打开它，都会看到一个广告，邀请我进一步掏空我的数字钱包)”可知，应用程序的算法会跟踪Thomas的数字足迹，从而知道他的偏好。 【8题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第四段“Once you make an order, you need to wait. The shipping gives your heart a little hit. Then there’s another little rush of endorphins (内啡肽) when the delivery person picks it up. You watch your package edging its way up the map to Beijing. When the app tells you it’s on the delivery bike, the same excitement as a kid on Christmas morning takes hold as you wait for the knock at the door. Much like a little dog waiting for its master to return home from work.(一旦你下了订单，就需要等待。发货过程会让你的心跳微微加速。当快递员取件时，内啡肽又会带来一阵小小的兴奋。你看着自己的包裹在地图上一点点向北京移动。当应用提示它已在派送途中时，你会像圣诞早晨的孩子一样兴奋，等待着敲门声响起。就像一只小狗等待主人下班回家)”可知，本段主要描述了Thomas对所购商品的期待和兴奋心情，从下单到等待送货的整个过程都充满了期待。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段““Surely, Thomas,” I hear you ask, “instead of blaming poor billionaires, you should take responsibility for your own sudden desire and lack of willpower.”(“当然，托马斯，”我听到你问，“与其责怪那些可怜的亿万富翁，不如为你自己突然的欲望和缺乏意志力负责。”)”以及前文描述Thomas的购物经历和感受可知，作者想通过这篇文章传达的信息是，我们应该对自己的购买行为负责，而不是责怪他人或平台。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据第五段“The packaging is eagerly removed, exciting another hit of happiness. An hour later, the buyer’s regret comes. To make yourself feel better, you start using the app once more and the cycle starts all over again.(包装被急切地打开，又激起了一阵快乐。一个小时后，买家开始后悔了。为了让自己感觉好一些，你开始再次使用这个应用程序，然后循环又重新开始了)”可推知，Thomas发现自己陷入了一个不断购物的循环中，无法自拔。 C In 2021, scientists studying animal communication discovered that some dogs connect objects with words similarly to babies. Then what about cats, which are commonly believed to be unconcerned about human affairs? Saho Takagi, a researcher at Azabu University, doubted cats’ seeming unconcern. “Cats don’t appear to listen to people’s conversations, but in fact, they do,” said Takagi. According to previous research, cats understand human communication better than expected. Like dogs, they can use human pointing and stares to find food. They even can tell the difference between human facial expressions and states of attention, according to a 2016 study. However, cats can do more than that. Another study showed that cats can discriminate their own names from the names of their cat companions (those that live in the same house). The researchers believed that cats learned to connect names with other cats by observing communication between their owners and their cat friends. In a recently published study, Takagi and her colleagues compared two groups of cats: cats living with at least two other cats and cats living in “cat cafés” with up to 30 cats. Using a simple two-phase (阶段) test, they assessed the cats’ responses to hearing their names and seeing their faces on a monitor: Sometimes, the cat that appeared on the screen matched the name spoken; other times, the name and the image did not match. If cats knew the names of their cat friends, they would investigate by staring doubtfully at the monitor when the name and image did not match. House cats had a significantly longer stare than café cats, indicating that house cats generally expected a specific cat’s face upon hearing the cat’s name. “This is the first evidence showing that house cats link human words and their social companions through daily experiences,” the researchers wrote. “However, we could not recognize the mechanism (机制) for learning. But with more and more scientists becoming interested in cats, who are much smarter than we assume, this question is sure to be solved.” 11. What’s people’s common understanding of cats? A. They have their own language. B. They can connect objects with words. C. They show no interest in human things. D. They can use human instructions to find food. 12. By comparing cats and dogs in Paragraph 2, the author wants to stress ________. A. Cats and dogs are all clever animals. B. Cats’ ability to learn is stronger than dogs’. C. Cats and dogs can get along well with humans. D. Cats’ ability goes beyond recognizing body language. 13. Which of the following can replace the underlined word “discriminate” in Paragraph 3? A. Choose. B. Protect. C. Tell. D. Learn. 14. What is the unsettled question of the study? A. How cats can recognize other cats’ face. B. Whether cats are much smarter than expected. C. Whether cats can understand human communication. D. How cats link human words and their social companions. 15. Which can be the best title for the text? A. Dogs: Cleverer than Cats in Learning. B. House Cats vs Café Cats: A New Test C. Cats: Smarter than We Think D. Ways of Cats Communicating with Humans 【答案】11. C 12. D 13. C 14. D 15. C 【解析】 【导语】文章主要介绍了一项关于猫咪认知能力的最新研究，研究表明猫咪会关注人类交流，它们不仅能理解人类的肢体语言，还能区分自己和同伴的名字。 【11题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“Then what about cats, which are commonly believed to be unconcerned about human affairs?(那么猫呢？人们普遍认为它们对人类的事情漠不关心。)”可知，人们对猫的普遍认识是它们对人类的事情不感兴趣。 【12题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中“Like dogs, they can use human pointing and stares to find food. They even can tell the difference between human facial expressions and states of attention, according to a 2016 study. However, cats can do more than that.(像狗一样，它们能利用人类的指向和眼神来寻找食物。根据2016年的一项研究，它们甚至能分辨人类的面部表情和注意状态。然而，猫能做的不仅仅是这些。)”可知，作者在第二段将猫和狗进行比较，说明了猫和狗都能理解人类的指向和眼神，并指出猫还能分辨面部表情和注意状态，最后强调猫能做的更多，作者是为了说明猫的能力不仅仅局限于识别肢体语言。 【13题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第三段中“The researchers believed that cats learned to connect names with other cats by observing communication between their owners and their cat friends.(研究人员认为，猫通过观察主人和猫同伴之间的交流，学会了将名字与其他猫联系起来。)”可知，猫能够将名字与其他猫联系起来，说明猫能将自己的名字与其他猫同伴的名字区分开来。划线词discriminate意为“区分，辨别”，与tell同义。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段中“This is the first evidence showing that house cats link human words and their social companions through daily experiences(这是第一个表明家猫通过日常经验将人类词语与其社交伙伴联系起来的证据)”和“However, we could not recognize the mechanism (机制) for learning.(然而，我们无法识别其学习机制。)”可知，研究中尚未解决的问题是猫如何将人类的词语与它们的社会同伴联系起来，即其学习机制尚不清楚。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“Then what about cats, which are commonly believed to be unconcerned about human affairs?(那么猫呢？人们普遍认为它们对人类的事情漠不关心。)”、第二段中“According to previous research, cats understand human communication better than expected.(根据之前的研究，猫比预期的更能理解人类的交流。)”和“However, cats can do more than that.(然而，猫能做的不仅仅是这些。)”以及最后一段中“who are much smarter than we assume(猫比我们想象的要聪明得多)”并结合全文内容可知，文章通过介绍一系列研究，打破了人们对猫的刻板印象，证明了猫比人们认为的要聪明，它们不仅能识别肢体语言，还能理将名字与猫同伴面孔对应。因此“Cats: Smarter than We Think(猫：比我们要想的更聪明)”最适合作为文章标题。 第二节 (共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 How to Get Along with Friends Movies and TV shows make friendships seem effortless with little conflict, but real-life friendships require effort and can be complicated. ____16____ Be positive.

Children, when ________ (accompany) by their parents, are allowed to enter the stadium. （所给词的适当形式填空） 【答案】accompanied 【解析】 【详解】句意：孩子们在父母的陪同下可以进入体育场。 本题考查状语从句的省略，当从句中主语和主句主语一致，且从句中又含有be动词时，从句中主语和be可以省略，accompany和Children之间是被动关系，应用被动语态，原句补充完整为“when they are accompanied by their parents”，从句中省略they are。 54. Traffic lights are there to guide traffic in an ____ (order) way. (所给词的适当形式填空) 【答案】orderly##ordered 【解析】 【详解】考查形容词。句意：红绿灯是用来引导交通秩序的。分析句子结构可知，此处为形容词作定语修饰名词way，order的形容词为orderly或ordered意为“组织有序的”符合句意。故填orderly/ordered。 55.

(所给词的适当形式填空) 【答案】beneficial 【解析】 【详解】句意：众所周知，大量阅读有助于提高我们的英语水平。作表语，用形容词beneficial。 第四节 (共5题；每小题2分，满分10分) 根据要求翻译句子。 56. 他突然想到他应该为自己的粗鲁行为向朋友道歉。(occur) （汉译英） __________________________________________________________________ 【答案】It suddenly occurred to him that he should apologize to his friend for his rude behaviour. 【解析】 【详解】动作发生在过去用一般过去时；表示“他突然想到”译为It suddenly occurred to him that；从句主语为he；表示“应该”用情态动词should；表示“为……向朋友道歉”译为apologize to sb. for sth.，且should后跟动词原形；表示“自己的粗鲁行为”译为his rude behaviour。 57. 你离开时最好带把伞，以防下雨。(in case) （汉译英） __________________________________________________________________ 【答案】You’d better take an umbrella when you leave in case it rains. 【解析】 【详解】“你最好做某事”可用You’d better do sth.，“带把伞”可用take an umbrella，“以防”可用in case，引导目的状语从句。 58. 我的所有努力最终得到了回报，我终于通过了考试。(pay off) （汉译英） __________________________________________________________________ 【答案】All my efforts finally paid off and I finally passed the exam. 【解析】 【详解】“努力”可翻译为effort；“得到回报”可翻译为pay off，“通过考试”可翻译为pass the exam。 描述已经发生的过去事件，因此句子用一般过去时。 59. 要是你能帮我解决这个技术问题，我将非常感谢。(it作形式宾语) （汉译英） __________________________________________________________________ 【答案】I would appreciate it very much if you could help me solve this technical problem.  【解析】 【详解】本题要求用it作形式宾语，表示“感谢”用appreciate，所以可用I would appreciate it very much if...表示“如果……我将非常感谢”。“解决”可用solve；“技术问题”可用technical problem。 60. 我想找人尽快把我的电脑修了。(have sth. done) （汉译英） __________________________________________________________________ 【答案】I want to have my computer repaired as soon as possible. 【解析】 【详解】“想要做某事”应用want to do sth.；“找人做……”可用have sth. done，过去分词作宾补；“修”可用repair；“尽快”可用as soon as possible。本句陈述的是说话人现在的想法，应用一般现在时。 第四部分 写作 (满分20分) 61. 假如你是李华。4月23日是“世界读书日”，为此，你校上周开展了一系列与读书相关的活动。请给你的笔友Tom写一封邮件，内容包括： 1. 活动目的； 2. 活动内容； 3. 分享个人收获。 注意：1. 写作词数100左右； 2. 可以适当增加细节，以使行文连贯。 Dear Tom, With the World Reading Day coming, I am writing to share some related information with you. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Yours sincerely, Li Hua 【答案】One possible version: Dear Tom, With the World Reading Day coming, I am writing to share some related information with you. In a gesture to trigger students’ passion for reading and enrich our school life, our school held a series of wonderful reading-related activities last week. To begin with, we had a book fair on the playground where different classes set up their booths, displaying a wide range of books. We could wander around, flip through the pages, and even exchange books with each other. What’s more, several well-known local authors were invited to give lectures, who talked about their writing experiences and the significance of reading in their lives. Personally, I’ve reaped great benefits from these activities. Not only have I discovered some new books that I’m really eager to dive into but also I have realized that reading is a journey of self-improvement.
