“Motasharefon bema’refatek!” is a greeting in Arabic (阿拉伯语). It means “Nice to meet you!” in English. You may find Arabic difficult to understand, but the following facts can be helpful in some ways.
Arabic is a language of over twenty countries across the Middle East and North Africa. It’s also one of the six official languages of the UN. Now about 400 million people worldwide speak Arabic.
Arabic has different kinds. One of them is Modern Standard Arabic. It is taught at schools in all Arabic-speaking countries and used on TV or on radios. Colloquial Arabic is another kind which people in the Arab world usually use in their everyday life.
Arabian people write Arabic in two ways. For example, “” with the meaning of “Nice to meet you!” is common. In fact, they also write in Latin letters, “Motasharefon bema’refatek”.

The curve () with one dot below is pronounced /b/, two on top is /t/, and three on top is /th/, while the curve () with two dots below is pronounced /y/.
Arabic has the “three-letter root” system (三母简式). Almost every Arabic word is based (基于) on a root of three letters. The meaning of each word has something to do with the root. If you take a root and add other letters to it, you can create many words. For example, “k-t-b” is a common root in Arabic. Some words from that root are kitaab (“book”) and maktaba (“library”).
There are more facts about Arabic for you to explore (探索). You’ll find that learning about it helps open up a door to a different culture and provides a new way to see the world.

After three days in the hospital, a 12-year-old boy named John and his parents could finally go home. His grandparents waited for them happily at home. “Luckily, my grandson knew how to ask for help, and he saved the whole family,” said his grandma.
One cold winter night last week, when John and his parents used charcoal (木炭) to keep warm, they closed all the doors and windows of the room. However, before going to bed, John suddenly felt unwell. He felt dizzy (头晕) and had difficulty breathing. When he tried to talk with his parents, he found that they couldn’t answer him. At that time, John thought they might suffer from carbon monoxide poisoning (一氧化碳中毒), he became nervous. But then he knew he had to keep calm. At first, he opened the windows and doors to let the fresh air in. Then he picked up his father’s phone to call 120. While he was waiting for the doctors, he shouted to neighbors aloud for help. The neighbors ran over at once and moved his parents outside the house together. Finally, John and his parents were sent to the hospital and saved in time.
“Were you afraid at that moment?” a reporter asked. “In fact, I was. But our school has lessons about safety every week, and our teachers often teach us what to do when we are in danger. I followed the teachers’ advice. I think they are really helpful. So I want to let more people know how important safety education is,” John answered.

There is little rain in deserts. Because deserts are so dry, they have no “quilt” to help stop the soil from going away. As a result, they may get very hot during the day with the sun shining, but don’t hold the heat overnight. Many deserts can quickly get cold once the sun goes down. Some deserts can reach temperatures of over 100 degrees F during the day and then drop below freezing (32 degrees F) during the night.
The largest hot and dry desert in the world is the Sahara in Northern Africa. The Sahara is a sandy desert with great sand hills. It covers over 3 million square miles of Africa. Other large deserts include the Arabian Desert, the Gobi Desert, and the Kalahari Desert.
Animals that live in the desert are also used to needing little water. Many get all the water they need from the food they eat. ▲ The camel stores up fat in its hump while other animals keep something they need in their tails.
Only certain types of plants can live in the terrible environment of the desert. You won’t see a lot of tall trees in the desert. Most plants have a way to keep water in their leaves or trunks, so they can live a long time without water.
Now deserts cover around 20% of the world’s land, but they are growing. This is called desertification and is caused by different reasons including human activities. The Sahara is growing larger and larger each year. What should we do with it?
12. How is the weather in deserts?
A. It’s hot during the day but cold during the night.
B. It’s cold during the day but hot during the night.
C. It’s hot both during the day and during the night.
D. It’s cold both during the day and during the night.
13. Which of the following sentences can be put into “ ▲ ”?
A. Other animals keep water that they can use later.
B. Some animals try to eat more than before.
C. People try to find some special animals.
D. There are many different useful animals.
14. What does Paragraph 4 mainly talk about?
A. The weather in deserts. B. The animals in deserts. C. The plants in deserts. D. Large deserts in the world.
15. What does the underlined word “they” in the last paragraph refer to?
A. The world’s land resources. B. Human activities. C. Different reasons. D. Deserts.
【答案】12. A 13. A 14. C 15. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文,主要介绍了沙漠的气候特点、世界上著名的大沙漠、沙漠中的动植物以及沙漠化问题。文章通过描述沙漠的极端气候、动植物适应沙漠环境的特殊方式以及沙漠面积不断扩大的现象,提醒人们关注沙漠化问题并思考应对措施。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第一段“Some deserts can reach temperatures of over 100 degrees F during the day and then drop below freezing (32 degrees F) during the night.”可知,沙漠白天很热,晚上很冷。故选A。
【13题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第三段“Many get all the water they need from the food they eat.”以及“The camel stores up fat in its hump while other animals keep something they need in their tails.”可知,许多动物从它们吃的食物中获取所需的水分,并且不同动物储存水分的方式不同,由此可推断出此处应填入与动物储存水分相关的句子。A选项“Other animals keep water that they can use later.”(其他动物储存它们以后可以用的水。)符合语境。故选A。
【14题详解】
主旨大意题。根据文章第四段“Only certain types of plants can live in the terrible environment of the desert. You won't see a lot of tall trees in the desert. Most plants have a way to keep water in their leaves or trunks, so they can live a long time without water.”可知,本段主要介绍了沙漠中的植物,包括只有特定种类的植物能在沙漠中生存、沙漠中没有很多高大的树木以及大多数植物有保持水分的方式等。故选C。
【15题详解】
词句猜测题。根据文章最后一段“Now deserts cover around 20% of the world’s land, but they are growing. This is called desertification and is caused by different reasons including human activities. The Sahara is growing larger and larger each year.”可知,现在沙漠覆盖了世界陆地的20%左右,并且它们正在扩大,这被称为沙漠化,是由包括人类活动在内的不同原因造成的,撒哈拉沙漠每年都在扩大。由此可推断出“they”指代的是前文提到的“Deserts”(沙漠)。故选D。
第二节 任务型阅读(本题有5小题,每小题1分,共计5分)
阅读下面材料,从所给的A—E五个选项中选出最佳选项(其中一项是多余选项),将其序号填入第1—4小题,并回答第5小题。
Hobbies do more than filling time, they shape our lives. Let’s explore how hobbies make life brighter.
1
Hobbies help our brains take a break from worries. For example, drawing or coloring can help us calm down. The sound of a paintbrush moving on paper calms our thoughts. Even 15 minutes of hobby time each day can be helpful.
2
Shared hobbies bring people together. Imagine joining a school photography club: you meet someone who also loves taking photos. You exchange tips, laugh over funny pictures, and celebrate good ones. Friends made through hobbies often share stronger connections.
3
Hobbies secretly train us for future difficulties. For example, gardening teaches patience as we wait for seeds to grow. Creative writing improves imagination and language skills. These later help in jobs, relationships, and personal growth.
4
Hobbies are not just fun, they are classrooms where we learn without textbooks! For example, growing plants helps you learn biology and cooking shows science. So next time you practice a hobby, remember: you’ re not just having fun—you’re collecting wisdom (智慧) one step at a time!
A. Relaxing the Mind
B. Developing Life Skills
C. Making More Money
D. Getting Some Knowledge
E. Building Friendship Bridges
16. ________
17. ________
18. ________
19. ________

【解析】

【导语】本文主要介绍Reshma Kosaraju发明人工智能预测森林火灾的方法。
【51题详解】
句意:当Reshma Kosaraju 12岁时,她的家人从芝加哥搬到了北加州。根据“When Reshma Kosaraju was 12”可知,时态是一般过去时,动词用过去式,故填moved。

【53题详解】
句意:虽然她的学校在火灾以南约320公里处,但由于浓烟弥漫,学生们仍然不得不戴上口罩。分析“...her school was about 320 kilometers south of the fire, students still had to wear masks...”可知,前后构成让步关系,所以用though/although引导让步状语从句,故填Though/Although。
【54题详解】
句意:虽然她的学校在火灾以南约320公里处,但由于浓烟弥漫,学生们仍然不得不戴上口罩。根据“students still had to wear masks (面罩) because...the smoke”可知,由于浓烟弥漫,学生们仍然不得不戴上口罩,because of意为“因为”,后跟名词,故填of。
【55题详解】
句意:对我来说是一次不寻常的经历,因为我从来没有真正经历过这个问题。此处在句中修饰动词,应用副词形式,故填really。
【56题详解】
句意:所以她希望能解决这个问题。hope to do sth意为“希望做某事”,故填to deal。
【57题详解】
句意:后来,她发明了一种用人工智能预测森林火灾的有用方法。此处在句中作定语修饰way,应用use的形容词形式useful,意为“有用的”,故填useful。
【58题详解】
句意:她的方法几乎有90%是正确的。此处修饰名词应用she的形容词性物主代词her,意为“她的”,句首首字母大写,故填Her。
【59题详解】
句意:我意识到,如果我能成功,结果会有很大的不同。make a big difference意为“产生重大影响、有很大的不同”,固定短语,故填a。
【60题详解】
句意:例如,环境可以得到改善,许多生命可以得到拯救。life意为“生命”,many修饰可数名词复数,故填lives。

“Motasharefon bema’refatek!” is a greeting in Arabic (阿拉伯语). It means “Nice to meet you!” in English. You may find Arabic difficult to understand, but the following facts can be helpful in some ways.
Arabic is a language of over twenty countries across the Middle East and North Africa. It’s also one of the six official languages of the UN. Now about 400 million people worldwide speak Arabic.
Arabic has different kinds. One of them is Modern Standard Arabic. It is taught at schools in all Arabic-speaking countries and used on TV or on radios. Colloquial Arabic is another kind which people in the Arab world usually use in their everyday life.
Arabian people write Arabic in two ways. For example, “” with the meaning of “Nice to meet you!” is common. In fact, they also write in Latin letters, “Motasharefon bema’refatek”. Common written Arabic has eighteen different curves (曲线) and . The curve () with one dot below is pronounced /b/, two on top is /t/, and three on top is /th/, while the curve () with two dots below is pronounced /y/.
Arabic has the “three-letter root” system (三母简式). Almost every Arabic word is based (基于) on a root of three letters. The meaning of each word has something to do with the root. If you take a root and add other letters to it, you can create many words. For example, “k-t-b” is a common root in Arabic. Some words from that root are kitaab (“book”) and maktaba (“library”).

After three days in the hospital, a 12-year-old boy named John and his parents could finally go home. His grandparents waited for them happily at home. “Luckily, my grandson knew how to ask for help, and he saved the whole family,” said his grandma.
One cold winter night last week, when John and his parents used charcoal (木炭) to keep warm, they closed all the doors and windows of the room. However, before going to bed, John suddenly felt unwell. He felt dizzy (头晕) and had difficulty breathing. When he tried to talk with his parents, he found that they couldn’t answer him. At that time, John thought they might suffer from carbon monoxide poisoning (一氧化碳中毒), he became nervous. But then he knew he had to keep calm. At first, he opened the windows and doors to let the fresh air in. Then he picked up his father’s phone to call 120. While he was waiting for the doctors, he shouted to neighbors aloud for help. The neighbors ran over at once and moved his parents outside the house together. Finally, John and his parents were sent to the hospital and saved in time.
“Were you afraid at that moment?” a reporter asked. “In fact, I was. But our school has lessons about safety every week, and our teachers often teach us what to do when we are in danger. I followed the teachers’ advice. I think they are really helpful. So I want to let more people know how important safety education is,” John answered.
8. What was the main reason that caused danger to John’s parents?
A. They were too tired at that time.
B. They went to sleep too late.
C. They played with fire in the room.
D. They used charcoal to keep warm and closed the doors and windows.

C. John’s school gives lessons about safety every week.
D. John’s parents taught him safety knowledge.

There is little rain in deserts. Because deserts are so dry, they have no “quilt” to help stop the soil from going away. As a result, they may get very hot during the day with the sun shining, but don’t hold the heat overnight. Many deserts can quickly get cold once the sun goes down. Some deserts can reach temperatures of over 100 degrees F during the day and then drop below freezing (32 degrees F) during the night.
The largest hot and dry desert in the world is the Sahara in Northern Africa. The Sahara is a sandy desert with great sand hills. It covers over 3 million square miles of Africa. Other large deserts include the Arabian Desert, the Gobi Desert, and the Kalahari Desert.
Animals that live in the desert are also used to needing little water. Many get all the water they need from the food they eat. ▲ The camel stores up fat in its hump while other animals keep something they need in their tails.
Only certain types of plants can live in the terrible environment of the desert. You won’t see a lot of tall trees in the desert. Most plants have a way to keep water in their leaves or trunks, so they can live a long time without water.
Now deserts cover around 20% of the world’s land, but they are growing. This is called desertification and is caused by different reasons including human activities. The Sahara is growing larger and larger each year. What should we do with it?
12. How is the weather in deserts?
A. It’s hot during the day but cold during the night.
B. It’s cold during the day but hot during the night.
C. It’s hot both during the day and during the night.
D. It’s cold both during the day and during the night.
13. Which of the following sentences can be put into “ ▲ ”?
A. Other animals keep water that they can use later.
B. Some animals try to eat more than before.
C. People try to find some special animals.
D. There are many different useful animals.
14. What does Paragraph 4 mainly talk about?
A. The weather in deserts. B. The animals in deserts. C. The plants in deserts. D. Large deserts in the world.
15. What does the underlined word “they” in the last paragraph refer to?
A. The world’s land resources. B. Human activities. C. Different reasons. D. Deserts.
第二节 任务型阅读(本题有5小题,每小题1分,共计5分)
阅读下面材料,从所给的A—E五个选项中选出最佳选项(其中一项是多余选项),将其序号填入第1—4小题,并回答第5小题。
Hobbies do more than filling time, they shape our lives. Let’s explore how hobbies make life brighter.
1
Hobbies help our brains take a break from worries. For example, drawing or coloring can help us calm down. The sound of a paintbrush moving on paper calms our thoughts. Even 15 minutes of hobby time each day can be helpful.
2
Shared hobbies bring people together. Imagine joining a school photography club: you meet someone who also loves taking photos. You exchange tips, laugh over funny pictures, and celebrate good ones. Friends made through hobbies often share stronger connections.
3
Hobbies secretly train us for future difficulties. For example, gardening teaches patience as we wait for seeds to grow. Creative writing improves imagination and language skills. These later help in jobs, relationships, and personal growth.
4
Hobbies are not just fun, they are classrooms where we learn without textbooks! For example, growing plants helps you learn biology and cooking shows science. So next time you practice a hobby, remember: you’ re not just having fun—you’re collecting wisdom (智慧) one step at a time!
A. Relaxing the Mind
B. Developing Life Skills
C. Making More Money
D. Getting Some Knowledge
E. Building Friendship Bridges
16. ________
17. ________
18. ________
19. ________
20. What can you get from your hobbies? (不超过15个词)
