Table tennis is probably one of the most interesting sports around the world — a game where players are mostly on their own. No one can help them and only their own skills and mindset can help them win the game. Because it is such a fast sport in a small environment, every wrong movement results in an error. So your mind has to be very clear. I started playing table tennis when I was 9 years old, surrounded by many players of my age. About three years later, I surpassed some of these players who were better than me at first but quit the sport. Then, at the age of 15, I made the jump to the seniors and rose to the top among players in my region. Even now, I am still one of the best players in my region, surpassing players who received more support in table tennis than I did. And this is how it works in life as well. Continuous effort, courage, and persistence (坚持) lead to success, differentiating those with great success from those who stay average. My biggest progress was made when I jumped to the seniors. Often challenged by stronger opponents (对手), I got used to being out of my comfort zone. Such experiences improved my skills much faster. At that time, my environment, which included stronger training partners, pushed me to grow. This is also true of making progress in other areas of your life. Your surroundings, and the people around you, shape you continuously. So, choose them wisely. 56. According to Paragraph 2, a table tennis player needs to ________. A. slow down to avoid making mistakes B. expect support from team members C. rely heavily on physical strength D. keep a high level of mental focus 57. What enabled the author to surpass those who were once better than him? A. He showed much more talent in the sport. B. He got more support from his environment. C. He continued to play when others gave up. D. He started playing at a much younger age. 58. What does the author mean by saying “I got used to being out of my comfort zone” in Paragraph 4? A. He started playing the sport in a new city. B. He had to adapt to playing against much stronger rivals. C. He began to feel physically uncomfortable during training. D. He felt tired of his familiar training environment. 59. What advice does the author give for making progress in life? A. Choose your environment and companions wisely. B.

So your mind has to be very clear. (因为这是一项在小环境中进行的高速运动，每一个错误的动作都会导致失误。所以你的头脑必须非常清醒。)”可知，乒乓球运动员需要保持高度的精神专注。 【57题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“About three years later, I surpassed some of these players who were better than me at first but quit the sport. (大约三年后，我超越了一些起初比我强但后来放弃这项运动的选手。)”可知，作者之所以能够超越那些曾经比他强的选手，是因为他在别人放弃时继续坚持。 【58题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第四段“Often challenged by stronger opponents (对手), I got used to being out of my comfort zone. (经常被更强的对手挑战，我习惯了走出自己的舒适区。)”可知，作者说这句话的意思是他不得不适应与更强的对手比赛。 【59题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“Your surroundings, and the people around you, shape you continuously. So, choose them wisely. (你的环境和周围的人会持续塑造你。所以，要明智地选择他们。)”可知，作者给出的建议是要明智地选择环境和同伴。 【60题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“The sport I have stuck with and continue to enjoy is table tennis, which has provided me with valuable life lessons. (我一直坚持并继续享受的运动是乒乓球，它为我提供了宝贵的人生教训。)”以及全文内容可知，本文最佳标题是“乒乓球教会我的道理”。 C The city of Derby in England is building a special kind of bus stop. These bus stops have roofs covered with local plants and flowers to attract pollinators (insects like bees that help plants grow). “Each roof will have a mix of wildflowers. They are perfect homes and food for many insects, including bees and butterflies,” the city explained. These “living roofs” are very important because the number of these insects has been falling quickly lately. Pollinators are necessary for the survival of plants and our food. According to experts, about 75% of the world’s flowers and 35% of our crops need these insects to produce seeds and fruit. In fact, one out of every three bites of food we eat depends on them. However, many pollinators are dying because they are losing their homes, getting sick, or facing the problems of pollution and climate change. These green bus stops do more than just help insects; they also bring great benefits to people living in the city. The plants help cool down the air. Usually, cities with many people and few plants are much hotter than the countryside. This is called the “urban heat island effect.” As global temperatures rise, having more plants across a city is a clever way to keep the city cool and protect us from extreme weather. The city also focuses on being “green” in other ways. These bus stops are made of recycled materials. When they become too old, the parts can be recycled again. Even the digital screens at the stops are 50% more energy-efficient than old models. They are completely powered by renewable electricity, such as wind or solar power. Derby is not the only place in the U.K. using this idea. This is part of a much larger project. The goal is to create at least 1,000 bee-friendly bus stops across the country to protect nature and improve city life. 61. What is special about the new bus stops in Derby? A. Their roofs provide a safe home for some insects. B. They grow local crops to produce food for the birds. C. Their screens show videos about protecting nature. D. They are mainly designed to beautify city streets. 62. Why are many pollinators dying according to the text? A. They are affected by the urban heat island effect. B. They fail to get enough food from the local crops. C. They suffer from lost homes and serious pollution. D. They struggle to compete with the flowers and plants. 63. How do the green bus stops directly help people living in the city? A. By providing renewable energy for local families. B. By producing extra crops and fruits for citizens. C. By preventing people from being bitten by insects. D. By helping to lower the temperatures of the city. 64. Why does the author mention the digital screens in Paragraph 4? A. To prove the high value of renewable electricity. B. To present the city’s further eco-friendly steps. C. To compare them with traditional screen versions. D. To encourage the public to use more solar energy. 65. What is the text mainly about? A. Creative ways for cities to fight climate change. B. National plans to build 1,000 new stops in Derby. C. Primary reasons for the quick decline of insects. D. Green bus stop projects and their major benefits. 【答案】61. A 62. C 63. D 64. B 65. D 【解析】 【导语】本文主要介绍的是英国德比市建造的带有“生态屋顶”的新型公交站及其对环境和城市的多重益处。 【61题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“These bus stops have roofs covered with local plants and flowers to attract pollinators (insects like bees that help plants grow). (这些公交站屋顶种着当地植物花卉，用来吸引传粉昆虫，它们是许多昆虫的理想家园和食物来源。（如蜜蜂这类帮助植物生长的昆虫）)” 以及“‘Each roof will have a mix of wildflowers. They are perfect homes and food for many insects, including bees and butterflies,’ the city explained. (市政府介绍：‘每个屋顶都会混合种植野花，它们是包括蜜蜂和蝴蝶在内的许多昆虫的理想家园和食物来源。’)”可知，德比市新型公交站的特别之处在于其屋顶为某些昆虫提供了安全的栖息地。 【62题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“However, many pollinators are dying because they are losing their homes, getting sick, or facing the problems of pollution and climate change.(然而，许多传粉昆虫濒临死亡，因为它们失去家园、患病，或面临污染与气候变化问题。)”可知，传粉者死亡的原因是失去家园和严重的污染。 【63题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“The plants help cool down the air. Usually, cities with many people and few plants are much hotter than the countryside. This is called the ‘urban heat island effect.’(这些植物有助于给空气降温。通常，人口密集、植物稀少的城市比农村热得多，这被称为‘城市热岛效应’。)”可知，绿色公交站通过帮助降低城市温度来直接造福市民。 【64题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“The city also focuses on being ‘green’ in other ways. (这座城市还在其他方面注重绿色环保。)以及“Even the digital screens at the stops are 50% more energy-efficient than old models. They are completely powered by renewable electricity, such as wind or solar power. (甚至站内的电子屏也比旧款节能50%，完全由风能、太阳能等可再生能源供电。)”可知，作者提及数字屏幕是为了展示该市在环保方面采取的进一步措施。 【65题详解】 主旨大意题。根据全文内容，尤其是第一段“The city of Derby in England is building a special kind of bus stop. (英国德比市正在建造一种特殊的公交站。)”以及最后一段“The goal is to create at least 1,000 bee-friendly bus stops across the country to protect nature and improve city life. (目标是在全国创建至少1000个对蜜蜂友好型公交站，以保护自然和改善城市生活。)”可知，本文主要介绍的是绿色公交站项目及其主要益处。 第Ⅱ卷（共35分） 第四部分：写作（共两节，满分35分） 第一节：阅读表达（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分） 阅读短文，并按照题目要求用英语回答问题。 I still remember the moment when I became a shy girl and developed a profound fear of public speaking. In high school, I would choose to be absent on days when I knew I had to present projects to the class. My eyes would water when I had to speak in front of my classmates, my voice would tremble, and so would my legs. Now, at the age of 22, a graduate of Florida State University, I am very clear on my own advantage, much of which goes to my so-called language “barrier” and struggle with “broken” English. During my years of learning English, my mom and I would sit down together to do my homework. When I was tired of studying, my mom would softly say, “Let’s study another half hour, because when you learn, I learn too.” Her words kept me going. We would sit there at the table laughing as we were spelling words aloud to each other. I began to appreciate a certain joy and achievement of studying. Many would argue that my inability to speak English in my childhood was a weakness. In fact, it turned out to be one of my greatest strengths. I paid close attention to how people spoke and pronounced words. The fact that I am not a native English speaker has made me more empathetic (共情的) and has helped me truly understand why diversity of thought is such a strength in the workplace, and, has made me a far more effective communicator. That one-time shy, silent little girl actually went for and got a job that now requires me to regularly stand in front of 40 state officers and read proposed laws (提案) in English. To students who may be struggling with their inability, I advise you to change your focus, embrace the opportunity in your challenge and consider how you can draw energy from your weakness to become a stronger student. Don’t accept the belief that you are disadvantaged. 66. Why did the author sometimes miss classes in high school? (No more than 10 words) ___________________________________________________________________ 67. What does the underlined word “tremble” in Para. 1 probably mean? (1 word) ___________________________________________________________________ 68. What did the author and her mother usually do while studying English together? (No more than 10 words) ___________________________________________________________________ 69. How does the author view her language “barrier” now? (No more than 10 words) ___________________________________________________________________ 70. How does the author’s story inspire you? Please explain in your own words. (No more than 20 words) ___________________________________________________________________ 【答案】66. To avoid presenting projects to the class./Because she had to present projects./Because of her fear of public speaking 67. Shake. 68. They spelled words aloud and laughed with each other. /They spelled words aloud to each other. /They did homework and spelled words aloud. 69. She now regards/sees it as (one of her greatest) strengths.​ 70. (Open)We should embrace challenges and turn our weaknesses into strengths. /I learn to draw energy from my weakness and never give up./It teaches me not to accept being disadvantaged but to be strong. 【解析】 【导语】文章讲述了作者从一个害羞、害怕公开演讲的女孩，成长为一名能够在40名州级官员面前宣读提案的职业人的经历。 【66题详解】 考查细节理解。根据第一段“I still remember the moment when I became a shy girl and developed a profound fear of public speaking. In high school, I would choose to be absent on days when I knew I had to present projects to the class.(我依然记得自己变得性格腼腆、极度害怕当众发言的那一刻。上高中时，只要知道哪天要在全班面前做课题展示，我就会想方设法请假缺席。)”可知，作者上高中时有时候缺课是为了避免在全班同学面前做课题展示。/因为她不得不进行课题展示。/因为她害怕当众发言。 【67题详解】 考查词句猜测。根据上文“I still remember the moment when I became a shy girl and developed a profound fear of public speaking.(我依然记得自己变得性格腼腆、极度害怕当众发言的那一刻。)”可知，作者性格腼腆，害怕当众发言，因此当众发言时流泪、声音和双腿发抖，tremble意为“颤抖、摇晃”，用一个单词作答就是Shake。 【68题详解】 考查细节理解。根据第二段“We would sit there at the table laughing as we were spelling words aloud to each other.(我们就坐在桌边，一边大声互相拼读单词，一边开怀大笑。)”可知，作者和妈妈一起学习英语时通常会大声拼读单词，彼此有说有笑。/互相大声拼读单词。/一边做作业，一边大声拼读单词。 【69题详解】 考查推理判断。根据第三段“Many would argue that my inability to speak English in my childhood was a weakness. In fact, it turned out to be one of my greatest strengths.(很多人会认为，我童年时不会说英语是一个弱点。事实上，它最终成了我最大的优势之一。)”可知，作者现在视语言障碍为自己的一大优势。 【70题详解】 考查开放性试题。答案不唯一，结合文章内容，答案符合逻辑和字数要求即可。参考答案：我们应该直面挑战，把自身劣势转化为优势。我学会从自身不足中汲取力量，永不轻言放弃。这教会我不要甘于处于弱势，而要努力变得强大。 第二节：书面表达（满分25分） 71. 假设你是晨光中学的李津，学校英语文化节将举办“A Quote That Moves Me Forward”主题演讲比赛。请从以下三句格言中任选其一，写一篇演讲稿参赛。 1.

Today, I’d like to share a quote that has become a guiding star in my life. The quote is, “The journey of a thousand miles begins with one step” by Lao Zi. To me, it means that no matter how difficult a goal seems, the most important thing is to take the first step and start doing it. This quote helped me greatly last year when I joined the school English debate club. Initially, I was terrified of speaking in public and felt I could never match the senior members. I almost quit. However, remembering this quote, I decided to focus on small steps. I started by practicing speaking to a mirror for just five minutes a day, and then slowly began to share my ideas in small group discussions. Step by step, my English improved, and eventually, I became one of the best debaters in our club. This quote is of great significance to me. It reminds me not to be frightened by huge challenges. As long as we take action, even the smallest step can lead to great success. Thank you for listening. 【解析】 【导语】题目要求考生写一篇演讲稿，参加主题为“A Quote That Moves Me Forward”的演讲比赛。 【详解】1.词汇积累 艰难的：difficult→tough 放弃： quit→give up 集中精力于：focus on→concentrate on 提高：improve→strengthen 2.句式拓展 合并句子 原句：This quote is of great significance to me.

Table tennis is probably one of the most interesting sports around the world — a game where players are mostly on their own. No one can help them and only their own skills and mindset can help them win the game. Because it is such a fast sport in a small environment, every wrong movement results in an error. So your mind has to be very clear. I started playing table tennis when I was 9 years old, surrounded by many players of my age. About three years later, I surpassed some of these players who were better than me at first but quit the sport. Then, at the age of 15, I made the jump to the seniors and rose to the top among players in my region. Even now, I am still one of the best players in my region, surpassing players who received more support in table tennis than I did. And this is how it works in life as well. Continuous effort, courage, and persistence (坚持) lead to success, differentiating those with great success from those who stay average. My biggest progress was made when I jumped to the seniors. Often challenged by stronger opponents (对手), I got used to being out of my comfort zone. Such experiences improved my skills much faster. At that time, my environment, which included stronger training partners, pushed me to grow. This is also true of making progress in other areas of your life. Your surroundings, and the people around you, shape you continuously. So, choose them wisely. 56. According to Paragraph 2, a table tennis player needs to ________. A. slow down to avoid making mistakes B. expect support from team members C. rely heavily on physical strength D. keep a high level of mental focus 57. What enabled the author to surpass those who were once better than him? A. He showed much more talent in the sport. B. He got more support from his environment. C. He continued to play when others gave up. D. He started playing at a much younger age. 58. What does the author mean by saying “I got used to being out of my comfort zone” in Paragraph 4? A. He started playing the sport in a new city. B. He had to adapt to playing against much stronger rivals. C. He began to feel physically uncomfortable during training. D. He felt tired of his familiar training environment. 59. What advice does the author give for making progress in life? A. Choose your environment and companions wisely. B. Stick to a familiar and comfortable training routine. C. Compete mostly with people of your own age. D. Rely entirely on your own skills and mindset. 60. What is the best title for the text? A. What Table Tennis Has Taught Me B. My Journey to Becoming a Champion C. How to Survive in Competitions D. The Secrets to Winning a Match C The city of Derby in England is building a special kind of bus stop. These bus stops have roofs covered with local plants and flowers to attract pollinators (insects like bees that help plants grow). “Each roof will have a mix of wildflowers. They are perfect homes and food for many insects, including bees and butterflies,” the city explained. These “living roofs” are very important because the number of these insects has been falling quickly lately. Pollinators are necessary for the survival of plants and our food. According to experts, about 75% of the world’s flowers and 35% of our crops need these insects to produce seeds and fruit. In fact, one out of every three bites of food we eat depends on them. However, many pollinators are dying because they are losing their homes, getting sick, or facing the problems of pollution and climate change. These green bus stops do more than just help insects; they also bring great benefits to people living in the city. The plants help cool down the air. Usually, cities with many people and few plants are much hotter than the countryside. This is called the “urban heat island effect.” As global temperatures rise, having more plants across a city is a clever way to keep the city cool and protect us from extreme weather. The city also focuses on being “green” in other ways. These bus stops are made of recycled materials. When they become too old, the parts can be recycled again. Even the digital screens at the stops are 50% more energy-efficient than old models. They are completely powered by renewable electricity, such as wind or solar power. Derby is not the only place in the U.K. using this idea. This is part of a much larger project. The goal is to create at least 1,000 bee-friendly bus stops across the country to protect nature and improve city life. 61. What is special about the new bus stops in Derby? A. Their roofs provide a safe home for some insects. B. They grow local crops to produce food for the birds. C. Their screens show videos about protecting nature. D. They are mainly designed to beautify city streets. 62. Why are many pollinators dying according to the text? A. They are affected by the urban heat island effect. B. They fail to get enough food from the local crops. C. They suffer from lost homes and serious pollution. D. They struggle to compete with the flowers and plants. 63. How do the green bus stops directly help people living in the city? A. By providing renewable energy for local families. B. By producing extra crops and fruits for citizens. C. By preventing people from being bitten by insects. D. By helping to lower the temperatures of the city. 64. Why does the author mention the digital screens in Paragraph 4? A. To prove the high value of renewable electricity. B. To present the city’s further eco-friendly steps. C. To compare them with traditional screen versions. D. To encourage the public to use more solar energy. 65. What is the text mainly about? A. Creative ways for cities to fight climate change. B. National plans to build 1,000 new stops in Derby. C. Primary reasons for the quick decline of insects. D. Green bus stop projects and their major benefits. 第Ⅱ卷（共35分） 第四部分：写作（共两节，满分35分） 第一节：阅读表达（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分） 阅读短文，并按照题目要求用英语回答问题。 I still remember the moment when I became a shy girl and developed a profound fear of public speaking. In high school, I would choose to be absent on days when I knew I had to present projects to the class. My eyes would water when I had to speak in front of my classmates, my voice would tremble, and so would my legs. Now, at the age of 22, a graduate of Florida State University, I am very clear on my own advantage, much of which goes to my so-called language “barrier” and struggle with “broken” English. During my years of learning English, my mom and I would sit down together to do my homework. When I was tired of studying, my mom would softly say, “Let’s study another half hour, because when you learn, I learn too.” Her words kept me going. We would sit there at the table laughing as we were spelling words aloud to each other. I began to appreciate a certain joy and achievement of studying. Many would argue that my inability to speak English in my childhood was a weakness. In fact, it turned out to be one of my greatest strengths. I paid close attention to how people spoke and pronounced words. The fact that I am not a native English speaker has made me more empathetic (共情的) and has helped me truly understand why diversity of thought is such a strength in the workplace, and, has made me a far more effective communicator. That one-time shy, silent little girl actually went for and got a job that now requires me to regularly stand in front of 40 state officers and read proposed laws (提案) in English. To students who may be struggling with their inability, I advise you to change your focus, embrace the opportunity in your challenge and consider how you can draw energy from your weakness to become a stronger student. Don’t accept the belief that you are disadvantaged. 66. Why did the author sometimes miss classes in high school?
