One summer day, Tom told Huck about his idea. “Where can we look for treasure?” asked Huck. “It's hidden on islands, under dead trees, but mostly under the floors in haunted houses.” “Who hid it?” “Robbers (强盗). You can find a box with some dollars in it, or a chest full of diamonds.” So, on Saturday afternoon the boys went to look for treasure at the haunted house on Cardiff Hill. It was a quiet and lonely place. And the boys were very frightened. They entered quietly, and explored downstairs. There were cobwebs everywhere and everything was old and broken. Then they threw their tools in a corner and walked upstairs, but there was nothing there. They were just about to go downstairs and start digging when Tom stopped. “What is it?” whispered Huck, going white with fright. “Keep still! There's someone downstairs.” The boys lay down, looking through the holes in the wooden floor. There were two men downstairs. One was an old Spaniard with a wide sombrero hat. The other was dirty and unpleasant-looking. The boys shook with fear. Then the Spaniard spoke. It was Injun Joe. Tom and Huck felt even more frightened. The men sat down on the floor and ate. They then lay down and fell asleep. When the two men woke up, the stranger said, “It's time for us to move, partner. What will we do with the $650 from the robbery?” “Let's keep $30 each and leave the rest here.” The dirty man went to the fireplace and moved a stone. Then he lifted out a bag full of money and took out some coins. The two boys forgot all their fears. There was real treasure downstairs. —— Adapted from The Adventures of Tom Sawyer 54. What is the hiding place like? A. Busy. B. Lonely. C. Noisy. D. Crowded. 55. What do the underlined words in Paragraph 7 show about Huck's feeling? A. Excited about finding treasure. B.

The 72-year-old then planned to go to China on foot. This meant she would travel about 22,000 kilometers and walk through 15 countries. The journey would be full of challenges, but she wasn’t afraid. The traveler carried only a bag. “I also have a lot of interests with me,” she said. On August 29, 2024, she finally set foot on China’s land. Cammarota’s trip was encouraged by Marco Polo. The Italian explorer traveled to China along the ancient Silk Road more than 700 years ago. For her, the journey was more than following Marco Polo’s footsteps. She wanted to see what China’s Belt and Road Initiative (“一带一路”倡议) had brought to the land. By sharing her experiences, she now hopes her travels will help people in the West see the true beauty of China. Cammarota’s interest in China began more than 20 years ago. A Chinese student stayed in her home and told her a lot about the country’s rich cultural heritage (文化遗产). Cammarota plans to spend two years in China. She will visit key stops along the ancient Silk Road: first Kashgar (喀什), Dunhuang, and then the historic city of Xi’an. After that she’ll visit Suzhou, the city described as the “Venice of the East” by Marco Polo. She plans to end her trip in Beijing to mark the 750th anniversary of Marco Polo’s arrival to China. Cammarota calls herself an ambassador (大使) of cultural exchange and a modern-day Marco Polo. “I want people to know about the Silk Road,” she said. “I also want to send a message to women my age: It’s never too late to go for your dreams.” 58. What did Vienna Cammarota carry on her way to China? A. A bag. B. Italian food. C. Interesting maps. D. Some silk. 59. How long did it take Cammarota to reach China from Venice? A. Less than 2 years. B. About 2.5 years. C. More than 4 years. D. About 20 years. 60. Which of the following probably shows Cammarota’s travelling route (线路) in China? A. B. C. D. 61. What can we learn about Vienna Cammarota from the text? A. She was nervous about how difficult the journey would be. B. She wants to encourage young women to follow their dreams. C. She became interested in China after studying Chinese in China. D. She hopes to build a better understanding between the East and West. D The Strait of Hormuz is a narrow waterway between Iran and the Arabian Peninsula. At its narrowest point, it is only about 33 kilometers wide. However, this small passage is one of the most important shipping routes in the world. About 20% of the world’s oil passes through it every day. Oil from Saudi Arabia, Iraq, Kuwait, and the United Arab Emirates must travel through this strait to reach global markets. For this reason, the Strait of Hormuz is often called the world’s “oil tap.” Since February 28, 2026, military conflict between the US, Israel, and Iran has severely disrupted this vital waterway. Although the strait is not physically blocked, the threat of attack has made most oil tankers avoid crossing it. Insurance companies have also stopped covering ships that enter the area. As a result, the strait is effectively closed. Oil producers in the region have been forced to cut output by at least 10 million barrels per day—the largest supply disruption in history. The impact on oil prices has been dramatic. Before the crisis, Brent crude oil cost about $71 per barrel. By March 9, 2026, the price had surged to $94 per barrel. At one point, prices briefly approached $120. The International Energy Agency (IEA) warned that if the closure continues, oil prices could go even higher. In response, IEA member countries agreed to release 400 million barrels of oil from emergency reserves to help stabilize the market. The effects are being felt far beyond the Middle East. Asia receives about 84% of the oil shipped through the Strait of Hormuz. Countries like China, India, Japan, and South Korea are especially vulnerable. Higher oil prices mean higher costs for gasoline, heating, and everyday products. The IEA noted that flight cancellations and disruptions to gas supplies have already begun to hurt the global economy. The situation in the Strait of Hormuz shows how a conflict in one small area can affect the entire world. Whether the strait will reopen soon remains uncertain. Much depends on how long the military conflict continues. For now, the world watches and waits, hoping for a peaceful resolution to a crisis that touches every corner of the globe. 62. According to the passage, why is the Strait of Hormuz called the world’s “oil tap”? A. Because it is shaped like a tap. B. Because about 20% of the world’s oil flows through it. C. Because it is the only place where oil is produced. D. Because it was built by oil companies. 63. What does the author mean by saying the strait is “effectively closed” in paragraph 2? A. The strait is physically blocked by ships or barriers. B. Iran has built a wall across the waterway. C. Ships are too afraid to go through, even though it is not blocked. D. The strait has been permanently closed by international law. 64. Which is the right structure of the passage? A. B. C. D. 65. Which of the following would be the best title for this passage? A. How to Become an Oil Trader B. A Small Waterway That Powers the World C. The History of Iran and the United States D. The Strait of Hormuz 第Ⅱ卷(60分) 五、词汇运用(共10小题;每小题1分,计10分) 根据句子意思,用括号中所给汉语提示或英语单词的适当形式填空。(每空一词) 66. This ____ (数码的)camera is my favourite present. 67.

At the table sat the Mad Hatter, the March Hare, and the Dormouse. They were having a tea party. There were many cups and plates, but no one was eating or drinking. “No room! No room!” they cried when they saw Alice. “There is plenty of room,” said Alice, and she sat down in a big chair. The Mad Hatter looked at Alice and asked her a riddle, “Why is a raven like a writing desk?” Alice thought hard, but she could not answer. “I give up,” she said. “What's the answer?” “I haven't the slightest idea,” said the Hatter. Then the March Hare took out his watch. He looked at it angrily and then dipped it into his tea. “It was the best butter,” he said sadly. Alice looked at the watch. “That's a strange way to keep time,” she said. “Time is a person,” said the Hatter. “If you are friends with Time, he will let the clock do whatever you want. But he doesn't like me, so it's always six o’ clock here-tea time forever!” ——Adapted from Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland 76.

And Tom was no different. One summer day, Tom told Huck about his idea. “Where can we look for treasure?” asked Huck. “It's hidden on islands, under dead trees, but mostly under the floors in haunted houses.” “Who hid it?” “Robbers (强盗). You can find a box with some dollars in it, or a chest full of diamonds.” So, on Saturday afternoon the boys went to look for treasure at the haunted house on Cardiff Hill. It was a quiet and lonely place. And the boys were very frightened. They entered quietly, and explored downstairs. There were cobwebs everywhere and everything was old and broken. Then they threw their tools in a corner and walked upstairs, but there was nothing there. They were just about to go downstairs and start digging when Tom stopped. “What is it?” whispered Huck, going white with fright. “Keep still! There's someone downstairs.” The boys lay down, looking through the holes in the wooden floor. There were two men downstairs. One was an old Spaniard with a wide sombrero hat. The other was dirty and unpleasant-looking. The boys shook with fear. Then the Spaniard spoke. It was Injun Joe. Tom and Huck felt even more frightened. The men sat down on the floor and ate. They then lay down and fell asleep. When the two men woke up, the stranger said, “It's time for us to move, partner. What will we do with the $650 from the robbery?” “Let's keep $30 each and leave the rest here.” The dirty man went to the fireplace and moved a stone. Then he lifted out a bag full of money and took out some coins. The two boys forgot all their fears. There was real treasure downstairs. —— Adapted from The Adventures of Tom Sawyer 54. What is the hiding place like? A. Busy. B. Lonely. C. Noisy. D. Crowded. 55. What do the underlined words in Paragraph 7 show about Huck's feeling? A. Excited about finding treasure. B. Bored with the treasure hunt. C. Angry with Tom for stopping. D. Scared of the unknown sound. 56. How much money from the robbery did the robbers plan to leave in the hiding place? A. $590. B. $600. C. $620. D. $650. 57. What will Tom and Huck most probably do next? A. They will go downstairs and fight with the two men. B. They will wait for the men to leave to get the treasure. C. They will go home and tell their parents about the men. D. They will run away quickly and forget about the treasure. 【答案】54. B 55. D 56. A 57. B 【解析】 【导语】本文改编自《汤姆•索亚历险记》,讲述了汤姆和哈克在闹鬼的房子里寻宝,意外撞见强盗并发现赃物的故事。 【54题详解】 文中提到“It was a quiet and lonely place.”,直接说明藏宝地偏僻安静。 【55题详解】 划线词“going white with fright”意为吓得脸色发白,体现哈克因未知声音感到害怕。 【56题详解】 文中提到“the $650 from the robbery”和“Let’s keep $30 each and leave the rest here.”,计算可知两人各拿30美元,总共拿走60美元,剩下的金额为$650 - $30×2 = $590。 【57题详解】 两人发现了真正的宝藏,最合理的做法是等强盗离开后再取走宝藏。 C On April 26, 2022, Italian traveler Vienna Cammarota set off from Venice. The 72-year-old then planned to go to China on foot. This meant she would travel about 22,000 kilometers and walk through 15 countries. The journey would be full of challenges, but she wasn’t afraid. The traveler carried only a bag. “I also have a lot of interests with me,” she said. On August 29, 2024, she finally set foot on China’s land. Cammarota’s trip was encouraged by Marco Polo. The Italian explorer traveled to China along the ancient Silk Road more than 700 years ago. For her, the journey was more than following Marco Polo’s footsteps. She wanted to see what China’s Belt and Road Initiative (“一带一路”倡议) had brought to the land. By sharing her experiences, she now hopes her travels will help people in the West see the true beauty of China. Cammarota’s interest in China began more than 20 years ago. A Chinese student stayed in her home and told her a lot about the country’s rich cultural heritage (文化遗产). Cammarota plans to spend two years in China. She will visit key stops along the ancient Silk Road: first Kashgar (喀什), Dunhuang, and then the historic city of Xi’an. After that she’ll visit Suzhou, the city described as the “Venice of the East” by Marco Polo. She plans to end her trip in Beijing to mark the 750th anniversary of Marco Polo’s arrival to China. Cammarota calls herself an ambassador (大使) of cultural exchange and a modern-day Marco Polo. “I want people to know about the Silk Road,” she said. “I also want to send a message to women my age: It’s never too late to go for your dreams.” 58. What did Vienna Cammarota carry on her way to China? A. A bag. B. Italian food. C. Interesting maps. D. Some silk. 59. How long did it take Cammarota to reach China from Venice? A. Less than 2 years. B. About 2.5 years. C. More than 4 years. D. About 20 years. 60. Which of the following probably shows Cammarota’s travelling route (线路) in China? A. B. C. D. 61. What can we learn about Vienna Cammarota from the text? A. She was nervous about how difficult the journey would be. B. She wants to encourage young women to follow their dreams. C.

At its narrowest point, it is only about 33 kilometers wide. However, this small passage is one of the most important shipping routes in the world. About 20% of the world’s oil passes through it every day. Oil from Saudi Arabia, Iraq, Kuwait, and the United Arab Emirates must travel through this strait to reach global markets. For this reason, the Strait of Hormuz is often called the world’s “oil tap.” Since February 28, 2026, military conflict between the US, Israel, and Iran has severely disrupted this vital waterway. Although the strait is not physically blocked, the threat of attack has made most oil tankers avoid crossing it. Insurance companies have also stopped covering ships that enter the area. As a result, the strait is effectively closed. Oil producers in the region have been forced to cut output by at least 10 million barrels per day—the largest supply disruption in history. The impact on oil prices has been dramatic. Before the crisis, Brent crude oil cost about $71 per barrel. By March 9, 2026, the price had surged to $94 per barrel. At one point, prices briefly approached $120. The International Energy Agency (IEA) warned that if the closure continues, oil prices could go even higher. In response, IEA member countries agreed to release 400 million barrels of oil from emergency reserves to help stabilize the market. The effects are being felt far beyond the Middle East. Asia receives about 84% of the oil shipped through the Strait of Hormuz. Countries like China, India, Japan, and South Korea are especially vulnerable. Higher oil prices mean higher costs for gasoline, heating, and everyday products. The IEA noted that flight cancellations and disruptions to gas supplies have already begun to hurt the global economy. The situation in the Strait of Hormuz shows how a conflict in one small area can affect the entire world. Whether the strait will reopen soon remains uncertain. Much depends on how long the military conflict continues. For now, the world watches and waits, hoping for a peaceful resolution to a crisis that touches every corner of the globe. 62. According to the passage, why is the Strait of Hormuz called the world’s “oil tap”? A. Because it is shaped like a tap. B. Because about 20% of the world’s oil flows through it. C. Because it is the only place where oil is produced. D. Because it was built by oil companies. 63. What does the author mean by saying the strait is “effectively closed” in paragraph 2? A. The strait is physically blocked by ships or barriers. B. Iran has built a wall across the waterway. C. Ships are too afraid to go through, even though it is not blocked. D. The strait has been permanently closed by international law. 64. Which is the right structure of the passage? A. B. C. D. 65. Which of the following would be the best title for this passage? A. How to Become an Oil Trader B. A Small Waterway That Powers the World C. The History of Iran and the United States D. The Strait of Hormuz 【答案】62. B 63. C 64. B 65. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文,主要讲述了霍尔木兹海峡作为全球石油运输的关键通道,其重要性以及军事冲突对全球石油市场和经济的影响。 【62题详解】 根据第一段第四句“About 20% of the world’s oil passes through it every day.”及第一段结尾句“For this reason, the Strait of Hormuz is often called …”可知,B选项符合语境。 【63题详解】 根据第二段第二句“Although the strait is not physically blocked, the threat of attack has made most oil tankers avoid crossing it.”可知,作者所说的“effectively closed”指的是船只不敢通过,尽管它没有被堵塞。 【64题详解】 第一段(P1)总起全文,介绍海峡的基本情况与重要性;第二到四段(P2-P4)分别阐述冲突事件、油价影响、全球影响,属于分说;第五段(P5)总结全文,点明事件影响与当前局势,属于总结,该结构对应选项B。 【65题详解】 文章围绕霍尔木兹海峡展开,强调它对全球能源供应的关键作用, 选项B“A Small Waterway That Powers the World”,准确地概括了文章的主题。 第Ⅱ卷(60分) 五、词汇运用(共10小题;每小题1分,计10分) 根据句子意思,用括号中所给汉语提示或英语单词的适当形式填空。(每空一词) 66.

The rules in all the ________ (协议) have been read by the publishers. 【答案】agreements 【解析】 【详解】句意:所有协议中的条款都已被出版商阅读过。句中“all the”表示“所有的”,后接可数名词复数或不可数名词;“协议”对应的英文单词为agreement,可数,其复数形式直接加-s。 68. The company’s new product shows great ________ (创造力) in design. 【答案】creativity 【解析】 【详解】句意:这家公司的新产品在设计上展现出了极强的创造力。句中great“极大的”,为形容词,其后需接名词。括号内提示“创造力”,对应的英文名词为creativity。 69.

After eating too quickly, both of my brothers had painful ________. (胃疼) 【答案】stomachaches 【解析】 【详解】句意:吃得太快后,我的两个弟弟都胃疼得厉害。根据中文提示“胃疼”可知,需要填写名词stomachache。又因为“both of my brothers”是复数,所以对应的名词也要用复数形式stomachaches。 71. ________ (recent), great changes have taken place in my hometown. 【答案】Recently 【解析】 【详解】句意:最近,我的家乡发生了巨大的变化。recent“最近的”,是形容词,此处需要副词作时间状语,因此用Recently“最近”。 72. Even when things go wrong, we should stay ________ (hope). 【答案】hopeful 【解析】 【详解】句意:即使事情出了问题,我们也应该保持充满希望。句中“stay”为系动词,后面常接形容词作表语,用来表示主语的状态。括号内的“hope (希望)”,是名词,需要将其变为形容词形式hopeful“充满希望的”。 73. It’s time to say goodbye, but we are ________ (willing) to. 【答案】unwilling 【解析】 【详解】句意:到说再见的时候了,但我们不愿意这样做。句中出现了转折连词“but”,表示前后语义相反,因此后半句需要表达与“愿意(willing)”相反的含义,要将willing变为其否定形式,在词前加前缀un-,构成unwilling。 74. The book is very popular and its ________ (sell) have doubled this year. 【答案】sales 【解析】 【详解】句意:这本书很受欢迎,今年它的销量翻了一番。空格前“its”后接名词,应用sell“销售”的名词形式sale,再结合谓语动词“have”,应使用其复数形式sales“销售量”作主语。 75.
