D 【解析】 【导语】本文讲述教师Karl让女儿Ella 策划徒步旅行以锻炼能力，Ella因担忧停滞，最终在父亲引导下学会求助，顺利完成任务并领悟成长真谛。 【11题详解】 句意：为了培养她的能力，他让Ella策划整个旅行，没有给她任何步骤或详细计划。 根据上文，“To develop her abilities”表明父亲为了培养她的能力，应该是放手让她做，所以没有给步骤或计划。 【12题详解】 句意：然而，一个月很快过去了，Ella什么也没做。 根据上文，“They agreed to start their adventure in a month.”以及后文“Time flew fast, day by day and week by week.”表明这里指的是约定的一个月过去了。 【13题详解】 句意：亲爱的，徒步计划进展如何？有没有什么进展？ make progress意为“取得进展”，固定搭配。 【14题详解】 句意：如果路上突然下大雨，对我来说很容易放弃。 Ella在列举困难，表示如果遇到这些情况，放弃是很“容易”的事，符合消极担忧的心理。应用easy“容易的”。 【15题详解】 句意：万一我在山里迷路或受伤，没人帮我怎么办？ 此处是Ella的直接引语，指代的是Ella自己，作help的宾语，用宾格me。 【16题详解】 句意：我已经尽力思考所有事情，但我仍然不知道做什么。 “尽力考虑所有事”和“不知道怎么办”是转折关系，应用but“但是”。 【17题详解】 句意：我想我所有的精力都用光了。 Ella很焦虑，她觉得自己已经尽力却还是没有办法，感觉精力“用完了”，应用run out。 【18题详解】 句意：那是你错过的最重要的事情。 父亲指出Ella还没有求助，这是她之前“忽略/错过”的关键点，应用missed“错过”。 【19题详解】 句意：然后他坐在Ella旁边，帮她仔细查看天气预报。 对于天气预报，动作应是“查看/核对”，“check the weather forecast”意为“查看天气预报”。 【20题详解】 句意：他可以分享安全提示以避免迷路或受伤。 安全提示的目的是为了防止危险发生，应用avoid“避免”。 【21题详解】 句意：此外，Karl建议Ella选择一条合适的路线而不是长路线。 根据下文， “instead of a long one”表明Karl建议选择一条“合适的”路线，避免过长的路线，应用suitable。 【22题详解】 句意：求助不是软弱的标志，而是展示你智慧的方式。 a sign of weakness意为“软弱的标志/表现”，固定搭配。 【23题详解】 句意：Ella脸上的担忧渐渐消失了。 根据上文，Ella一直表现出紧张焦虑，此处脸上消失的应是“担忧”，应用worry。 【24题详解】 句意：在父亲的帮助下，Ella顺利完成了徒步计划。 根据下文，“had a wonderful trip”表明计划完成得很“顺利”，应用smoothly。 【25题详解】 句意：Ella意识到成长并不意味着独自面对一切。 此处表示成长的定义，不是要独自面对“所有事情”，应用everything“一切”。 三、阅读理解（共两节，20小题；每小题2分，满分40分） 第一节：阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。 A My Learning Record Unit 5 Art world Name: Nora Self-assessment (自评) The score I get: 5 4 3 2 1 I can know different art forms and talk about my favourite one. ☑ □ □ □ □ I can retell the story about Tan Dun’s life and achievements. □ ☑ □ □ □ I can use because, since and as to give reasons correctly. □ ☑ □ □ □ I can know more about different styles of music. ☑ □ □ □ □ I learn how to invite friends to the concert. □ ☑ □ □ □ I can guess the meaning of a word from the context. □ □ □ ☑ □ I can write about my favourite art form with new words in this unit. □ ☑ □ □ □ I have some ideas about the power of art and enjoy the beauty of art. ☑ □ □ □ □ Results  31-40 Wonderful!

Then, the old gentleman gave each of the children a beautiful watch. Finally, Peter thanked everyone and said that he and his sisters did not deserve (应得) such a nice reward. His short but warm words touched all the people. Everyone clapped after the wonderful presentation. Later on, the children found out that it was Perks’ birthday. They planned a birthday party with Mrs. Perks. At first, Perks was not happy about receiving free food, but later understood that everyone liked him very much. After the children returned home, Roberta asked, “Do you think the old gentleman can help the Russian find his family?” The Russian was still living with them, and he could now speak a few words of English. However, none of Mother’s friends were able to help him find his family. “Let’s write to the old gentleman,” Phyllis said. This is what the children wrote: Dearest Old Gentleman, We need to tell you something. Will you please get out of the train for a few minutes tomorrow? We don’t want you to give us anything. We just want to talk to you about a prisoner. Your friends, Roberta, Phyllis, and Peter The children took the letter to the station master and asked him to give it to the old gentleman. The next day, they went to the station. When the train came, the old gentleman got off. The children ran up to him. “Thank you for coming to talk to us,” Roberta said. “I’m happy to,” the old gentleman said. “Let’s go into the waiting room.” They all went into the waiting room. The children told the old gentleman about the Russian. “He wrote a book,” Peter said, “and it made the government so angry that they put him in prison.” “What’s his name?” the old gentleman asked. “I can’t pronounce it,” Peter said, “but I can spell it.” 29. What does the underlined word “presentation” probably mean in paragraph 2? A. Game. B. Action. C. Speech. D. Discovery. 30. Which of the following is the correct order for the children? a. They received beautiful watches. b. They wrote a letter to the old gentleman. c. They planned a birthday party for Perks. d. They told the old gentleman about the Russian. e. They met the old gentleman in the waiting room. A. a-c-b-e-d B. a-b-c-d-e C. c-b-a-d-e D. c-e-b-d-a 31. What can we know about the Russian? A. He could speak English very well. B. He wanted to find his own family. C. He told the old gentleman his full name. D. He wrote a book that caused trouble for him. 32. What will Peter probably do next? A. Write down the Russian’s name. B. Thank the old gentleman for help. C. Talk with Perks about his birthday. D. Repeat the name to the old gentleman. 【答案】29. C 30. A 31. D 32. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，主要讲述了孩子们在接受表彰后，为帮助一位俄罗斯男子寻找家人，写信并求助一位好心的老绅士。 【29题详解】 第二段中“His short but warm words touched all the people. Everyone clapped after the wonderful presentation.”可知，大家是在彼得说完感人的话之后鼓掌的，且前文提到了秘书的演讲（speech）和彼得致谢。在此语境下，“presentation”指代的是包括演讲和颁奖在内的正式仪式或演讲环节。 【30题详解】 文章行文顺序梳理情节：第一段提到老绅士给孩子们手表（a. They received beautiful watches）；第三段提到后来孩子们为 Perks 策划生日派对（c. They planned a birthday party for Perks）；第四至九段提到孩子们回家后决定给老绅士写信（b. They wrote a letter to the old gentleman）；第十至十三段提到第二天在车站见面并进入候车室（e. They met the old gentleman in the waiting room）；第十四段提到孩子们告诉老绅士关于俄国人的事（d. They told the old gentleman about the Russian）。正确顺序为 a-c-b-e-d。 【31题详解】 文章倒数第二段Peter说的话：“He wrote a book… and it made the government so angry that they put him in prison.”，他写的书给他带来了麻烦（入狱）。A项“英语说得很好”与文中“speak a few words”不符；B项“想找家人”是孩子们的愿望，文中未直接描写俄国人的主观意愿；C项“告诉了全名”文中未发生，Peter正准备拼写。所以选D。 【32题详解】 文章最后一句Peter所说：“I can’t pronounce it… but I can spell it.”，既然无法口头发音说出名字，下一步最合理的动作是将名字拼写出来或写下来。A项“写下俄国人的名字”符合“spell it”的逻辑；D项“重复名字”与“can’t pronounce it”矛盾。所以选A。 C Recently, researchers in China have shown a new type of soft, lightweight humanoid robot designed to be a safe helper that can fit different situations in future homes. Inspired by “growable” human bones, the robot, named GrowHR, is 1.36 metres tall but weighs only 4.5 kg, which is lighter than a large house cat. A six-year-old child can easily lift it. Being very light, together with a body made of flexible, air-filled structures, makes it safer than today’s heavy robots. This design allows us to hug or lift it without injury. Also, the robot is small and easy to carry, and can be packed into a small box if we don’t need it. Using air pressure, GrowHR can shrink (收缩) when it needs to pass through narrow spaces. This is very important for moving around in a home with lots of furniture. This robot can also change its shape to walk through a low hole that is only 36% of its original height and can fit through a narrow space that is just 61% of its original width. The robot’s special design lets it do some other cool things. For example, it can float and swim. This means it could be used to get back things from a pool. Its light weight also means it can be carried by a drone (无人机) to a location 5.5 km away so that it could be used for food delivery or remote-assistance (远程协助) in the future. The research team says that in the future, they will make the robot even better. They will give it more freedom to move in different ways and help it work on its own. 33. What is Paragraph 2 mainly about concerning GrowHR? A. Daily uses. B. Future plans. C. Body structures. D. Safety performance. 34. How does the writer show GrowHR can shrink to pass through narrow spaces? A. By sharing stories. B. By making surveys. C. By listing numbers. D. By asking questions. 35. What does the underlined “This” refer to in paragraph 4? A. The use for delivering. B. The way to walk and shrink. C. The weight for carrying. D. The ability to float and swim. 36. What’s the best title of the passage? A. Meet GrowHR B. Live a Smart Life C. Create New Robots D. Improve Future Homes 【答案】33. C 34. C 35. D 36. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了中国研发的一款新型轻便人形机器人GrowHR，讲述了它的外形结构、特殊功能以及未来的研发规划。 【33题详解】 第二段主要介绍了GrowHR的身高、体重、材质结构以及小巧便携、安全性高的特点，这些都属于它的身体结构相关内容。 【34题详解】 第三段中作者用“36%”“61%”这些具体数字，来说明该机器人可以收缩身形穿过狭窄空间，运用了列数字的说明方法。 【35题详解】 第四段划线词“This”指代前文的“it can float and swim”，即机器人漂浮和游泳的能力。 【36题详解】 文章全文围绕新型机器人GrowHR展开介绍，从外形、功能到未来发展，核心对象是GrowHR，故最佳标题为Meet GrowHR。 D Have you ever wondered why your voice sounds different on a recording? This common experience has a science fact behind it. It’s all about how sound moves to your ears. When you speak, sound moves in two ways. First, it moves through the air to your ears. This is how other people hear your voice. Second, it moves through the bones in your head to your inner ears. This is called bone conduction (传导). The bones in your head shake as you speak. This makes your voice sound deeper and fuller to yourself. But when you hear your voice on a recording, you’re only hearing the sound that moved through the air. The bone-conducted sound is not there. So your recorded voice sounds higher and, to you, a little strange. This is why singers sometimes put one hand on their ear when they sing. They are trying to hear both the air sound and the bone sound. This helps them sing better. This doesn’t just happen with voices. Think about when you eat hard foods like apples. You hear the crunching (咬碎) sound through your bones too. That’s why your own chewing (咀嚼) sounds much louder to you than to people sitting next to you. They only hear the sound through the air, while you get both air and bone sounds. Scientists find that people usually don’t like their recorded voices at first. Why? Because they’re not used to them. Your brain likes familiar sounds. The voice you hear through your bones is what you’ve heard your whole life. But after listening a few times, most people get used to it. So next time you hear your recorded voice and think “That doesn’t sound like me!”, remember-it’s not a problem with your phone. It’s just science explaining how your body works! 37. Singers sometimes put one hand on their ear when they sing to ________. A. make bone-conducted sounds louder B. keep air sounds away from their ears C. receive two sounds for better singing D. stop strange high sounds reaching ears 38. Why does the writer mention eating hard things like apples? A. To present other ways of air conduction. B. To show other reasons of voice changes. C. To compare other kinds of chewing sounds. D. To prove other examples of bone conduction. 39. What does the writer advise people to do in paragraph 6? A. Accept your own inner-ear voice. B. Get used to recorded voices with time. C. Love familiar sounds in daily life. D. Notice bone-conducted voices clearly. 40. What’s the writing purpose of this passage? A. To encourage people to learn science. B. To explain a science fact about sound. C. To provide methods to improve voices. D. To teach skills about recording voices. 【答案】37. C 38. D 39. B 40. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要讲述了人们听到自己的录音和平时说话声音不同的科学原理，介绍了骨传导的概念及其对声音感知的影响，并解释了相关的生活现象。 【37题详解】 根据文章第四段“This is why singers sometimes put one hand on their ear when they sing. They are trying to hear both the air sound and the bone sound. This helps them sing better.”可知，歌手把手放在耳朵上是为了同时听到空气传导和骨传导两种声音，从而更好地演唱。故“接收两种声音以便更好地唱歌”符合文意。 【38题详解】 根据文章第五段“This doesn’t just happen with voices. Think about when you eat hard foods like apples. You hear the crunching sound through your bones too.”可知，作者提到吃苹果是为了说明骨传导现象不仅发生在说话时，咀嚼硬物时也会发生，即证明骨传导的其他例子。 【39题详解】 根据文章第六段“Scientists find that people usually don’t like their recorded voices at first... But after listening a few times, most people get used to it.”可知，作者指出人们起初不喜欢录音里的声音是因为不习惯，但多听几次后就会习惯。因此建议人们随着时间推移去习惯录音里的声音。 【40题详解】 通读全文可知，文章从“为什么录音里的声音和自己听到的不一样”这一现象入手，详细介绍了声音通过空气和骨头传播的科学原理“骨传导”，并解释了相关生活现象。文章首尾均提到这是背后的“science fact”。因此写作目的是解释关于声音的科学事实。 第二节：阅读下面短文，从短文后所给的选项中选出能填入短文空白处的最佳选项，使短文通顺连贯，其中有两项是多余选项。 A special event took place under the Oriental Pearl TV Tower-a warm ceremony was held to welcome Claude Brouir, a 63-year-old Belgian. He successfully finished a 12,000-kilometer trip from Brussels to Shanghai on a tricycle. ____41____ And it took him over 120 days to get to Shanghai.

This is already happening in Hangzhou. People there can use a smartphone app to call a collector to pick up recyclable waste like cardboard and plastic. They can get “eco-points” that they can use to buy things like food as a reward. This recycling service started in 2022. It now serves 559,000 families in Hangzhou. So far, it has collected about 400,000 tons of recyclable materials. This has greatly helped Hangzhou reduce its overall waste. In January this year, the UN praised Hangzhou for its work and named it one of the world’s top 20 “Zero Waste Cities”. So, what does “Zero-waste City” mean? It is a way of managing a city that tries to create as little waste as possible. China first started the zero-waste city idea in 2018. And it has developed fast. From 2021 to 2025, the zero-waste program grew to include 113 cities. “It is a useful tool for cutting waste. And it even allows people to recycle their things online,” said Li Gao, a government officer, who thought highly of the program. Li also shared China’s future plans. By 2027, 60 percent of cities in China are expected to take part in zero-waste development. By 2035, the plan is to have all cities included. To turn this national plan into local action, many cities have started their own projects. 66.

C Recently, researchers in China have shown a new type of soft, lightweight humanoid robot designed to be a safe helper that can fit different situations in future homes. Inspired by “growable” human bones, the robot, named GrowHR, is 1.36 metres tall but weighs only 4.5 kg, which is lighter than a large house cat. A six-year-old child can easily lift it. Being very light, together with a body made of flexible, air-filled structures, makes it safer than today’s heavy robots. This design allows us to hug or lift it without injury. Also, the robot is small and easy to carry, and can be packed into a small box if we don’t need it. Using air pressure, GrowHR can shrink (收缩) when it needs to pass through narrow spaces. This is very important for moving around in a home with lots of furniture. This robot can also change its shape to walk through a low hole that is only 36% of its original height and can fit through a narrow space that is just 61% of its original width. The robot’s special design lets it do some other cool things. For example, it can float and swim. This means it could be used to get back things from a pool. Its light weight also means it can be carried by a drone (无人机) to a location 5.5 km away so that it could be used for food delivery or remote-assistance (远程协助) in the future. The research team says that in the future, they will make the robot even better. They will give it more freedom to move in different ways and help it work on its own. 33. What is Paragraph 2 mainly about concerning GrowHR? A. Daily uses. B. Future plans. C. Body structures. D. Safety performance. 34. How does the writer show GrowHR can shrink to pass through narrow spaces? A. By sharing stories. B. By making surveys. C. By listing numbers. D. By asking questions. 35. What does the underlined “This” refer to in paragraph 4? A. The use for delivering. B. The way to walk and shrink. C. The weight for carrying. D. The ability to float and swim. 36. What’s the best title of the passage? A. Meet GrowHR B. Live a Smart Life C. Create New Robots D. Improve Future Homes D Have you ever wondered why your voice sounds different on a recording? This common experience has a science fact behind it. It’s all about how sound moves to your ears. When you speak, sound moves in two ways. First, it moves through the air to your ears. This is how other people hear your voice. Second, it moves through the bones in your head to your inner ears. This is called bone conduction (传导). The bones in your head shake as you speak. This makes your voice sound deeper and fuller to yourself. But when you hear your voice on a recording, you’re only hearing the sound that moved through the air. The bone-conducted sound is not there. So your recorded voice sounds higher and, to you, a little strange. This is why singers sometimes put one hand on their ear when they sing. They are trying to hear both the air sound and the bone sound. This helps them sing better. This doesn’t just happen with voices. Think about when you eat hard foods like apples. You hear the crunching (咬碎) sound through your bones too. That’s why your own chewing (咀嚼) sounds much louder to you than to people sitting next to you. They only hear the sound through the air, while you get both air and bone sounds. Scientists find that people usually don’t like their recorded voices at first. Why? Because they’re not used to them. Your brain likes familiar sounds. The voice you hear through your bones is what you’ve heard your whole life. But after listening a few times, most people get used to it. So next time you hear your recorded voice and think “That doesn’t sound like me!”, remember-it’s not a problem with your phone. It’s just science explaining how your body works! 37. Singers sometimes put one hand on their ear when they sing to ________. A. make bone-conducted sounds louder B. keep air sounds away from their ears C. receive two sounds for better singing D. stop strange high sounds reaching ears 38. Why does the writer mention eating hard things like apples? A. To present other ways of air conduction. B. To show other reasons of voice changes. C. To compare other kinds of chewing sounds. D. To prove other examples of bone conduction. 39. What does the writer advise people to do in paragraph 6? A. Accept your own inner-ear voice. B. Get used to recorded voices with time. C. Love familiar sounds in daily life. D. Notice bone-conducted voices clearly. 40. What’s the writing purpose of this passage? A. To encourage people to learn science. B. To explain a science fact about sound. C. To provide methods to improve voices. D. To teach skills about recording voices. 第二节：阅读下面短文，从短文后所给的选项中选出能填入短文空白处的最佳选项，使短文通顺连贯，其中有两项是多余选项。 A special event took place under the Oriental Pearl TV Tower-a warm ceremony was held to welcome Claude Brouir, a 63-year-old Belgian.

This is already happening in Hangzhou. People there can use a smartphone app to call a collector to pick up recyclable waste like cardboard and plastic. They can get “eco-points” that they can use to buy things like food as a reward. This recycling service started in 2022. It now serves 559,000 families in Hangzhou. So far, it has collected about 400,000 tons of recyclable materials. This has greatly helped Hangzhou reduce its overall waste. In January this year, the UN praised Hangzhou for its work and named it one of the world’s top 20 “Zero Waste Cities”. So, what does “Zero-waste City” mean? It is a way of managing a city that tries to create as little waste as possible. China first started the zero-waste city idea in 2018. And it has developed fast. From 2021 to 2025, the zero-waste program grew to include 113 cities. “It is a useful tool for cutting waste. And it even allows people to recycle their things online,” said Li Gao, a government officer, who thought highly of the program. Li also shared China’s future plans. By 2027, 60 percent of cities in China are expected to take part in zero-waste development. By 2035, the plan is to have all cities included. To turn this national plan into local action, many cities have started their own projects. 66.
