I’m six. Mom gets me up in the middle of every night and carries me to the car. It’s time to make the donuts (甜甜圈). She lays me in a lawn chair in the back of the donut shop and covers me with her jacket before she gets to work with Dad. There, under her jacket and in the midst of all that hustle and bustle (喧嚣繁忙), I feel completely safe and loved. I get up and try to talk customers into playing Candy Land with me before I catch the bus for school. I get to take donuts for snack time. I’m everyone’s favourite snack-bringer. I learn about friends and nice music and that the way to anyone’s heart is through his or her stomach.
I’m ten. Mom takes me to the supermarket every day to get the ingredients (原料) for endless casseroles, meat loaves and fried chicken. I complain a lot. I learn about budgets (预算), and that all that stuff tastes better than I would have ever thought.
I’m twenty-eight. For my birthday, I ask my mom to finally show me the trick to her famous pies for which there is no recipe (菜谱). She shows me how to mix the ingredients for the crust, just as her mother showed her. She tells me that we’ll pre-bake these for cream pies. We mix eggs and double-boil pudding for hours. I learn that, no matter how detailed your notes are, nothing can replace practice and a natural talent, and that using my great-grandmother’s rolling pin (擀面杖), my maternal grandmother’s (外祖母的) recipes and my paternal grandmother’s (祖母的) pie pan while cooking with my mom creates a feeling of connection I can’t explain.
I’m thirty-one. I’m standing in my mother’s kitchen with her and my sister, my memories so thick I can hardly breathe. I’m helping her go through a lifetime of collected kitchen tools and home machines because she will move to a smaller home soon. Throw that away, sell this, keep that. Yes, sell all the modern plastic tools. But I will never give up those colourful glass mixing bowls, the silver cups, the old pie plates and baking dishes and cookie boxes from my childhood in the kitchen. With my mom. I learn that sooner or later, we all have to let go of the things, because the memories are now a part of who we are. But I also learn why my mom was always so happy in the kitchen. With her mom.
And now, no matter what happens, I’ve learned that my mom will always be with me in mine.

Young people in China are showing off their style with fun bag charms. These small decorations hang from backpacks and swing as people walk. They have become a very popular fashion trend (趋势), driving a consumption boom known as the “bag-charm economy (包挂经济)”. These charms are more than just simple decorations; they help young people show who they are and create a new way of emotional (情感上的) connection.
There is a wide variety of these bag charms. Some are soft, plush toys, while others get ideas from traditional Chinese culture or museum pieces. Some are even released (发行) as limited editions, making them especially attractive to young customers. For example, Xi’an Momo Dolls and Sanxingdui’s Bronze Mask series re-imagine traditional elements into new forms for modern youth. These “China-chic” designs turn bag charms into cultural bridges between the past and present.
These charms offer more than just a decorative touch; they play a key role in breaking the ice among strangers. A shared charm can help people connect with just a smile. As the Chinese New Year came near, Vicky, who lives in Nanjing, bought clothes not just for her family, but for her Labubu charm. “I match charms to my mood and clothes,” she explains. “Sometimes they feel like emotional codes—shared understanding brings quick connections at once.”
The charms have become popular because of the new and better ways of making them in places like Guangdong. Dongguan, known as the “designer toy capital”, has thousands of factories using smart technology to create new designs quickly. This kind of ability helps the industry follow market trends. It even makes it possible to produce things in small groups. Today, these charms are reshaping the international image of “Made in China” by telling stories rooted in local creativity. From Southeast Asia to the Americas, these small items are building emotional bonds with global customers and showing a special Eastern beauty.
However, while enjoying these lovely charms, young people should keep their enthusiasm (热情) and reason in balance, avoiding impulsive purchases (冲动消费) and peer pressure. When we use them carefully, these small things can truly become the starlight that brightens daily lives. By joining Chinese creativity with emotional value, these tiny accessories (配饰) are ready to tell more and more interesting Chinese stories on the world stage, proving that even small things can have a big cultural influence.
36. Why are bag charms popular among young people in China according to the passage?
A. They’re a must-have for matching clothes.
B. They’re mainly used to show one’s collections.
C. They come in different kinds including limited ones.
D. They show the youth’s personalities and connections.
37. Which of the following can best show the style of “China-chic”?
A. B. C. D.
38. Why did Vicky buy clothes for her Labubu charm before the Chinese New Year?
A. To create good memories with friends.
B. To go better with her mood and clothes.
C. To have a closer connection with her family.
D. To make her charm perfect for the celebration.
39. What can we infer from the writer’s advice in the last paragraph?
A. It’s important to keep calm while following fashion trends.
B. Peer pressure is the key reason why bag charms are popular.
C. Young people mainly use bag charms to show their personalities.
D. Buying lovely bag charms is the best way to brighten daily lives.
40. What is the best title for this passage?
A. Dongguan: The designer toy capital

C. Popular bag charms among young people
D. Changes in young people’s shopping habits

五、阅读填空(共20小题;每小题1分,满分20分)
A)
请认真阅读下面短文,并根据所读内容在短文后表格中各小题的空格里填入最恰当的单词,回答问题。注意:前7小题每个空格只填1个单词;第8小题词数不限,第9-10小题不少于10个词。
Step1 The following quiz may help you to decide what type of language learner you are. Tick (√) the answer to each question and then work out your total score.
Frequency
Question
Usually
(3 points)
Sometimes
(2 points)
Never
(1 point)
Don’t know
(0 points)
1) Do you enjoy English classes?
2) Do you wish to have more time to think before you speak?
3) Is your pronunciation better when you read aloud than when you have a conversation?
4) Do you have a good memory for new words?
5) Do you like learning new grammar rules, words, etc. by heart?
6) Do you get good results in grammar tests?
7) Do you find it difficult to pick up more than two or three words of a dialect (方言) when you are on holiday in another city?
8) Are you afraid of making mistakes?
9) In class, do you get sad when mistakes are not corrected?
Step2 Read the following passage to find out your learner type according to your total score.
The aim of this quiz is to help you become aware of your own learning style or habits. Read the following comments and you will discover your learner type, and may get some useful advice on English learning.
If your total score is between 23 and 27, you are probably an analytic (分析型的) learner. You may feel it is very important to be as correct as possible all the time, and you probably prefer the type of language learning where you think carefully. In order to improve your language learning, try to speak as often as possible, and do not worry too much about your mistakes. Remember, you probably know more than you think!
If you score somewhere between 9 and 13 points, you are probably a relaxed learner. You seem to learn languages without really working hard and you usually enjoy communicating with people. You may feel that you should learn more grammar rules, but you probably don’t enjoy this and take no interest in it. You should therefore try to find more time to learn and set a regular time for learning. Then try to correct yourself more. If you can try to become more aware of the mistakes that you make regularly, you will find it easier to do something about them.
If your score is between 14 and 22, you are a mixture. You have the strengths and weaknesses of both the analytic and the relaxed learner. You learn in different ways depending on the learning content and learning environment. The suggestion for you is to study the descriptions of both analytic and relaxed learners. You will see what you have to improve in order to make full use of your strong points and overcome your weaknesses.
If you score between 0 and 8 points, it does not mean that you are not a good language learner. Perhaps this is the first time you have thought about the way you learn. You should observe the methods other students use to learn English and read some books that tell you how to learn a foreign language.
Generally speaking, language learners can be divided into four types. If you know your learner type, you may learn English better.
Learner type
Style description
Suggestion
An analytic learner
You like things to be exact and correct. When learning languages, you often think in a ____56____ way.
To improve your language learning, speak often and worry ____57____ about making mistakes.
A relaxed learner
You enjoy communication but may find grammar rules a bit boring and soon your interest will disappear.
Make sure to set a fixed time for studying. If you don’t deal with your mistakes when you notice them, they will be much ____58____ to correct later.
A mixture
You have features of both styles. Your learning ways change according to what you are learning and ____59____ you are.
By studying the two types of learners above, you can see which habits you might want to ____60____ and which to change to improve your English learning.
A learner whose type is not clear
Getting 0 to 8 points doesn’t show that you ____61____ to learn languages well.
Watch ____62____ good English learners study and read books on learning foreign languages.
Your learner type _______________________63_______________________
Your strong and weak points (at least 10 words) ___________64___________
Your plan for improvement (at least 10 words) ___________65___________
B) 请根据短文内容及首字母提示,填写所缺单词,并将答案填写在答题卡标号为66—75的相应位置上。
Have you ever wondered how numbers were born? It seems very n____66____ to you that if you have two dollars and you add two dollars to them, you have four dollars. But did you know that it may have taken human beings millions of years to be able to think this way? In fact, one of the most difficult things to teach children is the concept (概念) of numbers.
In very ancient times, when a man wanted to tell how many animals he owned, he had no system of numbers to use. I____67____, he put a stone or a pebble into a bag for each animal. The more animals he had, the more s____68____ he had.
Later on, man used tally marks to count. He would just scratch (划出) a line for each o____69____ he wanted to count, but he had no word to tell the number.
The next step in the d____70____ of the number system was probably the use of fingers. The word ‘digit’ comes from the Latin word digitus, which means ‘finger’. And since we have t____71____ fingers, this led to the general use of ‘10’ in systems of numbers.
But in ancient times, there was no s____72____ number system used all over the world. Some systems were based on 12, others were based on 60, others on 20 and still others on 2, 5 and 8. The system invented by the Romans about 2000 years ago was widely used by the people of Europe u____73____ the 16th century. In fact, we still use the Roman numeral system on clocks and sometimes to show p____74____ or chapters in books. But it was a very complicated (复杂的) system.
The number system we use today was invented by the Hindus in India thousands of years ago and was brought to Europe around the year 900 by Arabic traders. In this system, all numbers are w____75____ with the nine digits 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, and 9 to show how many, and the zero. It is a decimal (十进制的) system, that is, it is built on the base of 10.

[IN THE KITCHEN, CC WAITS PATIENTLY FOR EVERYONE. MOM ENTERS FIRST.]
CC: Good morning. What would you like for breakfast?
Mom: Coffee and waffles would be great, thanks.
Mom: Wow, these are the most delicious waffles I’ve ever eaten!
[TAYLOR ENTERS THE KITCHEN COMPLETELY SURPRISED.]
Taylor: You won’t believe it. When I woke up, the room was really clean. Everything had been put away during the night, so I couldn’t find anything!
Mom: Now, come here please, CC! I’ve written a list of all your chores for today.
CC: Affirmative!
Scene 2: Wrecked Home!
[IN THE KITCHEN, CC IS COOKING WHEN THE FAMILY ENTERS CHATTING AND LAUGHING.]
Mom: Mmm! Smells delicious, like Asian spices. Did you get all the chores done, too?
CC: Affirmative!
Dad: [HE STARTS YELLING.] Have you seen the backyard? All my beautiful flowers have been cut off, and the rubbish has been thrown all over the backyard!
Taylor: [SHE STARTS SCREAMING.] Quickly, call the police! We’ve been robbed. The thieves emptied out all my drawers and threw everything on the floor.
[EVERYONE LOOKS AT CC WHO IS CALMLY COOKING.]
Mom: What have you done, CC?
CC: Everything you asked me to do. I threw out the rubbish, mowed the backyard, cleaned the pool…
Mom: Oh, CC! Well…at least dinner is ready.
CC: Affirmative!
[CC STARTS SERVING THE FOOD.]
Taylor: Yuck! It’s awful and really spicy!
[TAYLOR DRINKS A LOT OF WATER AND FANS MOUTH.]
CC: But you told me to make a HOT dinner.
Mom: Yes…but I meant temperature hot, not spicy hot!
Scene 3: No More CC!
[THE NEXT DAY, EVERYONE IS BEING VERY COOPERATIVE.]
Dad: Would anyone like more pasta?
Mom: Oh, yes, please!
Taylor: Me, too…By the way, I washed the clothes and cleaned our rooms.
Mom: [SHE’S SURPRISED.] Really? Great!
Dad: And I took CC back to the shop! What a disaster!
[EVERYONE LAUGHS. NEXT, THEY ARE SITTING AT THE TABLE, EATING DINNER, AND LOOKING VERY HAPPY.]
29. What did Taylor say when she entered the kitchen after waking up?
A. She said she had listed all the chores that CC should do.
B. She said she had finished the housework with CC’s help.
C. She said she couldn’t find her things in such a clean room.
D. She said she didn’t like the breakfast which was made by CC.

【导语】本文是一篇记叙文,讲述了泰勒一家试用家务机器人CC,却因机器人理解偏差弄巧成拙,最终决定自己做家务的故事。
【29题详解】
Scene 1中Taylor“When I woke up, the room was really clean. Everything had been put away during the night, so I couldn’t find anything!”,可知Taylor醒来后发现房间被收拾得过于整洁,找不到自己的东西。
【30题详解】
根据Scene 3内容以及Taylor表达“I washed the clothes and cleaned our rooms”,结尾“EVERYONE LAUGHS…LOOKING VERY HAPPY”可知,送走CC后,一家人主动自己做家务、过得更加愉快,也明白了家人合作比机器人帮忙更重要。因此A项“Family moments, with teamwork, matter more than the help from robots.”符合主题。
【31题详解】
该句内容“drinks a lot of water”(喝很多水)和“fans mouth”(扇嘴巴)可知,这是对Taylor动作行为的舞台提示,属于剧本中描述角色动作的说明文字。
C
I’m six. Mom gets me up in the middle of every night and carries me to the car. It’s time to make the donuts (甜甜圈). She lays me in a lawn chair in the back of the donut shop and covers me with her jacket before she gets to work with Dad. There, under her jacket and in the midst of all that hustle and bustle (喧嚣繁忙), I feel completely safe and loved. I get up and try to talk customers into playing Candy Land with me before I catch the bus for school. I get to take donuts for snack time. I’m everyone’s favourite snack-bringer. I learn about friends and nice music and that the way to anyone’s heart is through his or her stomach.
I’m ten. Mom takes me to the supermarket every day to get the ingredients (原料) for endless casseroles, meat loaves and fried chicken. I complain a lot. I learn about budgets (预算), and that all that stuff tastes better than I would have ever thought.
I’m twenty-eight. For my birthday, I ask my mom to finally show me the trick to her famous pies for which there is no recipe (菜谱). She shows me how to mix the ingredients for the crust, just as her mother showed her. She tells me that we’ll pre-bake these for cream pies. We mix eggs and double-boil pudding for hours. I learn that, no matter how detailed your notes are, nothing can replace practice and a natural talent, and that using my great-grandmother’s rolling pin (擀面杖), my maternal grandmother’s (外祖母的) recipes and my paternal grandmother’s (祖母的) pie pan while cooking with my mom creates a feeling of connection I can’t explain.
I’m thirty-one. I’m standing in my mother’s kitchen with her and my sister, my memories so thick I can hardly breathe. I’m helping her go through a lifetime of collected kitchen tools and home machines because she will move to a smaller home soon. Throw that away, sell this, keep that. Yes, sell all the modern plastic tools. But I will never give up those colourful glass mixing bowls, the silver cups, the old pie plates and baking dishes and cookie boxes from my childhood in the kitchen. With my mom. I learn that sooner or later, we all have to let go of the things, because the memories are now a part of who we are. But I also learn why my mom was always so happy in the kitchen. With her mom.
And now, no matter what happens, I’ve learned that my mom will always be with me in mine.

【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文,作者按时间顺序(6岁、10岁、28岁、31岁)回忆了自己在厨房中度过的时光以及与母亲之间的深厚情感。
【32题详解】
原文第二段开头:“I’m ten. Mom takes me to the supermarket every day...”,对应第一个图片;原文第一段开头:“I’m six... She lays me in a lawn chair in the back of the donut shop...”对应第二个图片;原文第四段开头:“I’m thirty-one. I’m standing in my mother’s kitchen with her and my sister…”,对应第三个图片,图片中有作者,作者的姐姐和作者的母亲。这里缺的是作者28岁和母亲学做派的场景,故选C。
【33题详解】
第一段中提到“There, under her jacket and in the midst of all that hustle and bustle, I feel completely safe and loved.”,这说明作者在甜甜圈店感到安全和被爱是因为父母始终把她带在身边并悉心照顾,所以选项D“Her parents always keep her with them and look after her well.”正确。
【34题详解】
文章开篇作者抱怨去超市采购食材“I complain a lot.”,到后来向母亲学习做派、珍惜家族烹饪工具、领悟到记忆已成为自己的一部分,情感变化是从“抱怨厨房琐事”到“珍惜家庭记忆”,所以选项D“From complaining about kitchen chores to valuing family memories.”正确。
【35题详解】
全文通过作者在不同年龄段与厨房、与母亲互动的回忆,展现了烹饪如何承载家族记忆和亲情连接,所以作者的主要写作目的是展示烹饪如何跨越时间连接家庭记忆,选项C“To show how cooking holds family memories and connections across time.”正确。A“分享与父母经营甜甜圈店的难忘故事”只覆盖第一段;B“介绍家庭烹饪技巧如何代代相传”是部分内容;D“要求读者保留旧厨房用具而不是买塑料的”不是主要目的。
D
Young people in China are showing off their style with fun bag charms. These small decorations hang from backpacks and swing as people walk. They have become a very popular fashion trend (趋势), driving a consumption boom known as the “bag-charm economy (包挂经济)”. These charms are more than just simple decorations; they help young people show who they are and create a new way of emotional (情感上的) connection.
There is a wide variety of these bag charms. Some are soft, plush toys, while others get ideas from traditional Chinese culture or museum pieces. Some are even released (发行) as limited editions, making them especially attractive to young customers. For example, Xi’an Momo Dolls and Sanxingdui’s Bronze Mask series re-imagine traditional elements into new forms for modern youth. These “China-chic” designs turn bag charms into cultural bridges between the past and present.
These charms offer more than just a decorative touch; they play a key role in breaking the ice among strangers. A shared charm can help people connect with just a smile. As the Chinese New Year came near, Vicky, who lives in Nanjing, bought clothes not just for her family, but for her Labubu charm. “I match charms to my mood and clothes,” she explains. “Sometimes they feel like emotional codes—shared understanding brings quick connections at once.”
The charms have become popular because of the new and better ways of making them in places like Guangdong. Dongguan, known as the “designer toy capital”, has thousands of factories using smart technology to create new designs quickly. This kind of ability helps the industry follow market trends. It even makes it possible to produce things in small groups. Today, these charms are reshaping the international image of “Made in China” by telling stories rooted in local creativity. From Southeast Asia to the Americas, these small items are building emotional bonds with global customers and showing a special Eastern beauty.
However, while enjoying these lovely charms, young people should keep their enthusiasm (热情) and reason in balance, avoiding impulsive purchases (冲动消费) and peer pressure. When we use them carefully, these small things can truly become the starlight that brightens daily lives. By joining Chinese creativity with emotional value, these tiny accessories (配饰) are ready to tell more and more interesting Chinese stories on the world stage, proving that even small things can have a big cultural influence.
36. Why are bag charms popular among young people in China according to the passage?
A. They’re a must-have for matching clothes.
B. They’re mainly used to show one’s collections.
C. They come in different kinds including limited ones.
D. They show the youth’s personalities and connections.
37. Which of the following can best show the style of “China-chic”?
A. B. C. D.
38. Why did Vicky buy clothes for her Labubu charm before the Chinese New Year?
A. To create good memories with friends.
B. To go better with her mood and clothes.
C. To have a closer connection with her family.
D. To make her charm perfect for the celebration.
39. What can we infer from the writer’s advice in the last paragraph?
A. It’s important to keep calm while following fashion trends.
B. Peer pressure is the key reason why bag charms are popular.
C. Young people mainly use bag charms to show their personalities.

Sure enough, a few weeks later, the young man’s tears turned to joy, because his horse was coming home, with another handsome Mongolian horse ____43____ (run) beside her. The young man was overjoyed.

【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了中国古代“塞翁失马,焉知非福”的故事,告诉我们好事和坏事在一定条件下可以互相转化的道理。
【41题详解】
句意:在中国的北方草原上,住着一个喜欢骑马的年轻农民。根据中文提示“北方的”可知,此处应填形容词northern,在句中作定语修饰名词grasslands。故填northern。
【42题详解】
句意:失去自己的马是令人悲伤的。根据中文提示“失去”可知,此处应填动词lose;句型“It is + adj. + to do sth.”中,it是形式主语,真正的主语是后面的动词不定式,因此to后接动词原形。故填lose。
【43题详解】
句意:因为他的马回家了,旁边还跟着另一匹漂亮的蒙古马。此处是“with + 宾语 + 宾语补足语”结构,宾语horse与动词run之间是主动关系,所以用现在分词作宾语补足语,run的现在分词需双写n再加ing。故填running。
【44题详解】
句意:然后有一天,当他在外骑马时,他从马背上被摔到了地上。根据句意和“to the ground”可知,此处表示“从……上面被甩下来”,应用介词off。
【45题详解】
句意:让我们保持希望。let sb. do sth.意为“让某人做某事”,是固定用法,let后接省略to的动词不定式作宾语补足语。故填stay。
【46题详解】
句意:一个月内,敌人从西边进攻,所有身体健全的男人都被要求参军。ask sb. to do sth.意为“要求某人做某事”,其被动语态为be asked to do sth.,此处用带to的动词不定式。故填to join。
【47题详解】
句意:战斗很激烈,一百多人在战场上丧生。根据中文提示“百”可知,此处应填hundred;one hundred意为“一百”,hundred前有具体数字时不用复数形式。故填hundred。
【48题详解】
句意:慢慢地,他断了的腿长好了,但每当冷风吹过时,它仍然会痛。此处修饰动词mended或整个句子,应用副词形式slowly,位于句首,首字母需大写。故填Slowly。
【49题详解】
句意:慢慢地,他断了的腿长好了,但每当冷风吹过时,它仍然会痛。根据中文提示“无论何时”可知,此处应填引导让步状语从句的连词whenever。
【50题详解】
句意:然后他会向后靠着坐下,开始梦想他的马。根据中文提示“梦想”可知,此处应填动词dream;begin to do sth.意为“开始做某事”,to后接动词原形。故填dream。

【51题详解】
句意:数字敦煌:通往过去的一扇窗。空格处需要填一个名词,与“into the past”搭配,构成“a window into the past”意为“通往过去的窗户/窗口”,符合语境。故填“window”。

五、阅读填空(共20小题;每小题1分,满分20分)
A)
请认真阅读下面短文,并根据所读内容在短文后表格中各小题的空格里填入最恰当的单词,回答问题。注意:前7小题每个空格只填1个单词;第8小题词数不限,第9-10小题不少于10个词。
Step1 The following quiz may help you to decide what type of language learner you are. Tick (√) the answer to each question and then work out your total score.
Frequency
Question
Usually
(3 points)
Sometimes
(2 points)
Never
(1 point)
Don’t know
(0 points)
1) Do you enjoy English classes?
2) Do you wish to have more time to think before you speak?
3) Is your pronunciation better when you read aloud than when you have a conversation?
4) Do you have a good memory for new words?
5) Do you like learning new grammar rules, words, etc. by heart?
6) Do you get good results in grammar tests?
7) Do you find it difficult to pick up more than two or three words of a dialect (方言) when you are on holiday in another city?
8) Are you afraid of making mistakes?
9) In class, do you get sad when mistakes are not corrected?
Step2 Read the following passage to find out your learner type according to your total score.
The aim of this quiz is to help you become aware of your own learning style or habits. Read the following comments and you will discover your learner type, and may get some useful advice on English learning.
If your total score is between 23 and 27, you are probably an analytic (分析型的) learner. You may feel it is very important to be as correct as possible all the time, and you probably prefer the type of language learning where you think carefully. In order to improve your language learning, try to speak as often as possible, and do not worry too much about your mistakes. Remember, you probably know more than you think!
If you score somewhere between 9 and 13 points, you are probably a relaxed learner. You seem to learn languages without really working hard and you usually enjoy communicating with people. You may feel that you should learn more grammar rules, but you probably don’t enjoy this and take no interest in it. You should therefore try to find more time to learn and set a regular time for learning. Then try to correct yourself more. If you can try to become more aware of the mistakes that you make regularly, you will find it easier to do something about them.
If your score is between 14 and 22, you are a mixture. You have the strengths and weaknesses of both the analytic and the relaxed learner. You learn in different ways depending on the learning content and learning environment. The suggestion for you is to study the descriptions of both analytic and relaxed learners. You will see what you have to improve in order to make full use of your strong points and overcome your weaknesses.
If you score between 0 and 8 points, it does not mean that you are not a good language learner. Perhaps this is the first time you have thought about the way you learn. You should observe the methods other students use to learn English and read some books that tell you how to learn a foreign language.
Generally speaking, language learners can be divided into four types. If you know your learner type, you may learn English better.
Learner type
Style description
Suggestion
An analytic learner
You like things to be exact and correct. When learning languages, you often think in a ____56____ way.
To improve your language learning, speak often and worry ____57____ about making mistakes.
A relaxed learner
You enjoy communication but may find grammar rules a bit boring and soon your interest will disappear.
Make sure to set a fixed time for studying. If you don’t deal with your mistakes when you notice them, they will be much ____58____ to correct later.
A mixture
You have features of both styles. Your learning ways change according to what you are learning and ____59____ you are.
By studying the two types of learners above, you can see which habits you might want to ____60____ and which to change to improve your English learning.
A learner whose type is not clear
Getting 0 to 8 points doesn’t show that you ____61____ to learn languages well.
Watch ____62____ good English learners study and read books on learning foreign languages.
Your learner type _______________________63_______________________
Your strong and weak points (at least 10 words) ___________64___________
Your plan for improvement (at least 10 words) ___________65___________
【答案】56. careful
57. less 58. harder
59. where 60. keep
61. fail 62. other
63. an analytic learner/A mixture/a relaxed learner/a learner whose type is not clear
64. I am good at grammar but I am afraid of making mistakes.
65. I will speak more often and not worry too much about mistakes.
【解析】
【导语】本文通过语言学习自测问卷,划分出四种语言学习者类型,并针对不同类型给出对应的英语学习建议,帮助读者找到适合自己的学习方式。
【56题详解】
文章第二段提到“prefer the type of language learning where you think carefully”(更喜欢仔细思考的语言学习方式),说明分析型学习者思考方式很仔细。空格修饰名词way,需填形容词,carefully的形容词形式为careful,故填careful。
【57题详解】
文章第二段提到“do not worry too much about your mistakes”(不要太担心你的错误),可知建议是少担心错误。空格表示担心程度,对应“不要太多”即“更少”,用比较级less。故填less。
【58题详解】
文章三段提到“you will find it easier to do something about them”(你会发现更容易处理它们),可知如果不及时处理错误,后续纠正会更难。空格需用形容词比较级,easier的反义词为harder。故填harder。
【59题详解】
文章第四段说明“You learn in different ways depending on the learning content and leaning environment”,可知学习方式取决于内容和环境。空格对应地点状语,用where引导。故填where。
【60题详解】
文章第四段最后一句提到“make full use of your strong points and overcome your weaknesses”,可知建议是保持优点习惯并改变缺点习惯。空格处对应保持好习惯。故填keep。
【61题详解】
文章第五段提到“it does not mean that you are not a good language learner”,可知低分不代表学不好。“doesn’t show that you...to learn”,双重否定表肯定,意为“不显示你失败”,“fail to do”表示未能做某事。故填fail。
【62题详解】
文章第五段提出“You should observe the methods other students use”,可知建议是要观察其他学习者。“Watch...good English learners”,对应原文“other students”。故填other。
【63题详解】
文章第二至五段按不同分数段划分出四类学习者类型,依据自身自测总分填写对应类型即可,可填 an analytic learner/A mixture/a relaxed learner/a learner whose type is not clear。
【64题详解】
此为开放性试题,需结合自身情况描述优缺点。根据文章中对不同学习者特点的描述(如grammar, mistakes, communication等)进行作答,注意词数不少于10个,合理作答即可。例如:“I am good at grammar but I am afraid of making mistakes”。
【65题详解】
此为开放性试题,需提出改进计划。根据文章给出的建议(如 speak often, correct mistakes 等)进行作答,词数不少于10个,合理作答即可。例如:“I will speak more often and not worry too much about mistakes”。
B) 请根据短文内容及首字母提示,填写所缺单词,并将答案填写在答题卡标号为66—75的相应位置上。
Have you ever wondered how numbers were born? It seems very n____66____ to you that if you have two dollars and you add two dollars to them, you have four dollars. But did you know that it may have taken human beings millions of years to be able to think this way? In fact, one of the most difficult things to teach children is the concept (概念) of numbers.
In very ancient times, when a man wanted to tell how many animals he owned, he had no system of numbers to use. I____67____, he put a stone or a pebble into a bag for each animal. The more animals he had, the more s____68____ he had.
Later on, man used tally marks to count. He would just scratch (划出) a line for each o____69____ he wanted to count, but he had no word to tell the number.
The next step in the d____70____ of the number system was probably the use of fingers. The word ‘digit’ comes from the Latin word digitus, which means ‘finger’. And since we have t____71____ fingers, this led to the general use of ‘10’ in systems of numbers.
But in ancient times, there was no s____72____ number system used all over the world. Some systems were based on 12, others were based on 60, others on 20 and still others on 2, 5 and 8. The system invented by the Romans about 2000 years ago was widely used by the people of Europe u____73____ the 16th century. In fact, we still use the Roman numeral system on clocks and sometimes to show p____74____ or chapters in books. But it was a very complicated (复杂的) system.
The number system we use today was invented by the Hindus in India thousands of years ago and was brought to Europe around the year 900 by Arabic traders. In this system, all numbers are w____75____ with the nine digits 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, and 9 to show how many, and the zero. It is a decimal (十进制的) system, that is, it is built on the base of 10.
【答案】66. natural##atural
67. Instead##nstead
68. stones##tones
69. object##bject
70. development##evelopment
71. ten##en
72. single##ingle
73. until##ntil
74. pages##ages
75. written##ritten
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文,主要讲述了数字系统的起源和发展历史。
【66题详解】
句意:对你来说,如果你有两美元,再加上两美元,你就有四美元,这似乎很自然。结合前后文“It seems very…to you that if you have two dollars and you add two dollars to them, you have four dollars.”,只有natural(自然的)符合“数字起源看似简单实则复杂”的对比逻辑。
【67题详解】
句意:相反,他为每只动物在袋子里放一块石头或鹅卵石。前文说“古人没有数字系统”,后文说“用石头计数”,是转折替代关系,只有Instead能衔接这个逻辑。
【68题详解】
句意:他拥有的动物越多,他拥有的石头就越多。前文明确提到“put a stone or a pebble into a bag for each animal”,动物越多,对应的石头就越多,只能填stones。
【69题详解】
句意:他只会为他想计算的每个物体划一条线,但他没有词语来表达这个数字。each后接单数名词,表示“每一个要计数的物品”,object是最贴合的词。
【70题详解】
句意:数字系统发展的下一步可能是使用手指。the development of the number system表示“数字系统的发展”。
【71题详解】
句意:因为我们有十根手指,这导致了数字系统中普遍使用“10”。人有10根手指,这是十进制起源的常识,只能填ten。
【72题详解】
句意:但在古代,世界上并没有使用单一的数字系统。no single number system表示“没有单一的数字系统在全球通用”,符合“各地进制不同”的上下文。
【73题详解】
句意:大约2000年前罗马人发明的系统被欧洲人广泛使用,直到16世纪。表示“罗马数字在欧洲被广泛使用直到16世纪”,只有until能表达这个时间截止的逻辑。
【74题详解】
句意:事实上,我们仍然在钟表上使用罗马数字系统,有时也用来表示书中的页码或章节。罗马数字用于书籍标页码是常识“pages”(页码)是常见用法。
【75题详解】
句意:在这个系统中,所有的数字都是用九个数字1到9以及零来书写的。主语all numbers与动词write之间是被动关系,此处与are构成一般现在时的被动语态,需用过去分词written。

After reading the story Good or Bad, I have learned that a bad thing may turn into a good one.
Here is my experience. Last month, I failed my math exam. I felt very sad at first. However, my math teacher encouraged me and helped me find out my mistakes. After that, I worked harder than before. Finally, I got a high score in the next exam.
