A 【解析】 【导语】这是一则保护黄河的志愿者招募启事，介绍了活动的招募条件、时间地点、活动内容、好处及注意事项。 1.细节理解题。根据文中“Age: Over 13”可知，志愿者年龄需超过13岁，选项 C（14 岁）符合该条件。 2.细节理解题。根据“Benefits”部分提到的“Have colorful activities”和“Learn something”志愿者可以同时享受乐趣和学习，对应选项B。 3.推理判断题。根据标题“Volunteers Wanted to Protect Xiangjiang River”我们可以了解到活动的目的，对应选项A。文中并未提及参加活动的具体人数（选项 B）及活动费用（选项 C）。 B Cold temperature exerts profound impacts on people’s mental activities and physical reactions. For this reason, plenty of English idioms take "cold" as their core word, and their actual meanings differ greatly from the literal sense of the word. The idiom cold turkey has nothing to do with frozen poultry. It means stopping a bad habit completely and suddenly without gradual adjustment. Many people attempt to quit smoking or overeating in this way, yet quite a number of them fail eventually due to strong inner desire. If people throw cold water on your plans, they will express negative opinions and doubt your ideas directly. They never offer supportive suggestions, and their words always make you lose confidence to carry on your original plans. A cold reception refers to an unwelcome attitude when you visit others or take part in an activity. Hosts may ignore your arrival, refuse to chat warmly or turn down your reasonable demands. Such an atmosphere always leaves visitors awkward and uneasy. These special idioms vividly show people’s emotions and daily attitudes, and are commonly applied in daily talks and articles. 4.What leads to lots of "cold" related idioms? A. Cold weather changes people’s living habits B. Cold affects people’s mind and body responses C. People like using cold words to express anger 5.What is the true meaning of "cold turkey"? A. Suddenly giving up bad habits totally B. Eating cold turkey meat in daily life C. Feeling bored with repetitive daily routines 6.People will feel uneasy after a cold reception mainly because ______. A. they cannot finish their own work well B. surrounding temperature becomes freezing cold C. they are treated in an unfriendly manner 7.What is the main theme of the passage? A. Several idioms with the word "cold" B. Bad effects cold weather brings to humans C. Various feelings caused by low temperature 【答案】4.B 5.A 6．C 7.A 【解析】 4.细节理解题。文章第一句明确指出：“Cold temperature exerts profound impacts on people’s mental activities and physical reactions.” 这正是产生大量“cold”相关习语的根本原因。A和C在文中均无依据。 5. 细节理解题。文中明确解释 cold turkey 表示彻底突然戒掉坏习惯，并非食用冷火鸡肉、厌烦日常琐事，排除 B、C 选项。 6.细节理解题。根据第四段，“cold reception”指不受欢迎的态度：主人可能忽视来访者、拒绝热情交谈、否定合理要求。这种不友好的对待方式让人感到尴尬和不安。A和B与文意不符。 7. 主旨大意题。文章开篇虽然提到寒冷影响身心，但重点并非讨论寒冷天气的危害（B）或低温引起的感受（C），而是以此引出并逐一解释多个含“cold”的习语（cold turkey, throw cold water on, cold reception）及其真实含义和用法。因此，全文主旨是介绍几个带有“cold”的习语，A为正确答案。 C Nowadays, more and more Chinese people choose traditional Chinese health ways to keep fit and live a better life. These ancient healthy lifestyles are gentle, natural and suitable for people of all ages. Foot soaking is one of the most common traditional health habits in China. People usually soak their feet in warm water before sleeping. Many people also add Chinese herbs into the water. This simple habit can help relax tired bodies, speed up blood circulation and make people fall asleep more easily. Unlike modern health equipment, it is cheap, safe and easy to keep every day. Traditional Chinese diet therapy (食疗) is also widely popular. It believes that many common daily foods have healthy functions. For example, red dates are good for improving physical energy, and lotus seeds can help people calm down. Different from common snacks, these foods can not only satisfy our hunger but also help us keep healthy without taking medicine. Besides, traditional massage (推拿) is a great way to relieve body discomfort. Professional massage can relax tight muscles, reduce body pain and release daily pressure. It focuses on soothing the body naturally instead of eliminating symptoms quickly, so it brings long-term health benefits to people. 8. What is one advantage of foot soaking according to the passage? A. It costs little and is convenient B. It needs expensive herbs C. It works the fastest of all health ways 9. What do we know about traditional Chinese diet therapy? A. It requires people to take different medicine B. Daily foods can bring health benefits C. It can replace all kinds of daily meals 10. What can traditional massage help people do? A. Keep muscles tight and strong B. Reduce physical pain and pressure C. Cure all kinds of serious illnesses 11. What is the best title for the passage? A. The history of traditional Chinese medicine B. Popular traditional Chinese health ways C. Differences between ancient and modern therapy 【答案】8.A 9.B 10．B 11.B 【解析】 8.细节理解题。根据文章第二段最后一句可知，泡脚便宜、安全且日常易坚持。B、C两项原文无相关依据，表述错误。 9.细节理解题。根据第三段内容可知，食疗依托日常食物，既能饱腹又能养生。A项吃药、C项替代三餐均与原文内容不符。 10.细节理解题。根据第四段可知，传统推拿可以放松肌肉、缓解身体疼痛和日常压力。A项使肌肉紧绷、C项治愈所有重病均不符合文意。 11.主旨大意题。全文主要介绍了泡脚、食疗、传统推拿三种流行的中国传统养生方式。文章未重点讲解中医历史、古今疗法差异，排除A、C。 D Wind is a clean and widely used natural energy. It creates no pollution and brings great convenience to people’s daily life. Would you like to know how we make use of wind power? Let’s learn about wind turbines. To build a simple wind model, you need several easy materials: thin wooden sticks, plastic blades, a small base and strong glue. These common daily objects help people explore the secret of wind energy easily at home. Here are the making steps. Firstly, fix four plastic blades evenly around the stick. Secondly, stick the stick firmly onto the stable base. Thirdly, place the finished model in an open spot with steady natural wind. The whole process is simple and safe for learners. Wind pushes the blades and makes them spin fast. The rotating blades can produce small power. Wind energy turns into electric energy, which can supply power for tiny lights or small toys. Different from fossil energy, wind energy will never run out and causes no damage to our living environment. Now wind power has been widely applied. Plenty of wind farms are built on hills and coasts. This eco-friendly energy plays an irreplaceable role in protecting the whole earth. 12.How does the writer lead into the topic? A. By asking questions B. By listing examples C. By showing data 13.What is the main purpose of making the wind model? A. To decorate indoor rooms beautifully B. To study the use of wind energy C. To collect useful waste materials 14.What advantage does wind energy have compared with fossil energy? A. It can create more heat quickly B. It won’t be used up and is pollution-free C. It can work normally without wind 15.What is the correct order of the passage structure? A.①Materials→②Introduction→③Steps→④Conclusion→⑤Principle B. ①Introduction→②Steps→③Materials→④Principle→⑤Conclusion C. ①Introduction→②Materials→③Steps→④Principle→⑤Conclusion 【答案】12.A 13.B 14．B 15.C 【解析】 12.推理判断题。文章开头使用反问句式引出风能与风力发电机的话题，以此吸引读者兴趣。文中没有列举具体事例，也没有出现数字相关数据，因此 B、C 两项均可直接排除。 13.推理判断题。根据文中语句可知，制作风力模型是为了在家探索风能的奥秘，了解风能的实际运用方式。文中全程未提及装饰房间、回收废旧材料相关内容，A、C 两项不符合文章主旨。 14. 细节理解题。原文明确对比指出，风能属于可再生清洁能源，不会耗尽，也不会污染环境。风能依靠风力运转，无法无风工作，同时文章也没有提及风能产热更快，A、C 表述与原文不符。 15.文章结构题。短文行文脉络清晰，首先引出风能主题，接着介绍制作模型所需材料，随后依次讲解具体制作流程，再阐述风力发电的能量转化原理，最后总结风能的应用价值与环保意义，对应 C 选项结构顺序。 第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分） Most people think fast delivery (快递) is new, but it’s actually very old. As early as the Shang and Zhou Dynasties, governments already had a way to send orders and news. 16 It was most developed in the Tang Dynasty and continued to be used for hundreds of years. The yizhan was built to help pass documents (文件) far and fast. 17 Sometimes, they passed the messages to the next rider. Because of this, news, food, and even money for the emperors could travel quickly across the land. 18 These places were about 30 kilometers from each other. That was just right for a horse to go without stopping. Each place usually had houses for horses, rooms to keep things, kitchens, and beds for riders. 19 Some had tall towers or flags, so people could see them easily. Later, the yizhan took on more new roles. When the Mongols (蒙古人) ruled, it also helped foreign officers and official visitors who came for work. This way helped the government, business, and the sharing of culture. 20 Today, our post offices and ways to communicate still learn from this old idea. Keeping people in touch helped ancient China develop and it still helps us now. A．Riders would stop at these places to change horses or rest. B．Bigger places could hold many people and even had offices. C．This way was called yizhan. D．The yizhan was also built in a very ingenious (巧妙的) way. E．People used yizhan just to send daily food for common people. F．Even the famous traveler Marco Polo said it worked very well. 【答案】16．C 17．A 18．D 19．B 20．F 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了中国古代驿站（yizhan）系统的历史起源、功能作用、建设布局以及对后世的深远影响。 16．第一段表明“governments already had a way to send orders and news.”，前文提到商周时期就有传递政令的方式，后文开始介绍“驿站（yizhan）”，所以这里需要先引出这个概念，C选项“This way was called yizhan.”起到承上启下的作用。 17．前文说驿站是为了快速传递文件，后文“Sometimes, they passed the messages to the next rider”，提到他们有时会把消息传给下一个骑手，说明骑手会在驿站停留换马或休息，A选项“Riders would stop at these places to change horses or rest.”符合上下文逻辑。 18．第三段“These places were about 30 kilometers from each other.”及后文对驿站设施的详细描述，可推知本段首句应总起说明驿站的建设布局巧妙，D选项“The yizhan was also built in a very ingenious (巧妙的) way.”引出下文。 19．第三段“Each place usually had houses for horses...”以及后文“Some had tall towers...”，可知此处是在描述普通驿站设施之后，补充说明规模较大的驿站情况，B选项“Bigger places could hold many people and even had offices.”衔接自然。 20．第四段“This way helped the government, business, and the sharing of culture.”，前文提到蒙古统治时期驿站帮助了外国官员和文化交流，后文过渡到现代邮政，可推知此处需要引用F选项“Even the famous traveler Marco Polo said it worked very well.”，马可・波罗的评价来佐证驿站的高效。 第二部分 语言运用 第一节（共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分） 从每小题所给的A、B、C三个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的正确答案。 Xiao Jian was a quiet student.

Or wished for more time to relax and enjoy different seasons? Recently, the Chinese government has introduced some new rules for schools to help students like you have a more balanced and happier school life. First, there are new rules to reduce tests. The Ministry of Education wants students to feel less stressed about exams. Now, students in Grades 1 and 2 don’t need to take any paper tests. For other grades in primary and middle school, there is only one final exam each term. Also, test scores for several subjects are no longer given as numbers or ranks. Instead, students receive a grade like A, B, or C. The goal is to change the focus from memorizing facts to developing thinking and problem-solving skills through more interesting class activities. Second, many places are adding new holidays. To give students a better rhythm of study and rest, a “Spring and Autumn Holiday” system is being introduced. Already, eight provinces including Shandong and Zhejiang have started this. These are short breaks added to the school year without reducing total learning days. A very important part of this plan is that it encourages parents to take paid leave (带薪休假) at the same time, so families can enjoy the holidays together. For students whose parents are busy, some schools may offer fun supervision (监管) and activities on campus. These changes are all part of a big effort to improve student well-being. By having fewer stressful exams and more time for rest and family, the school life can become healthier and more enjoyable. The final goal is to help every student grow in a more balanced way—not just in academic (学业的) subjects, but also in their overall happiness and development. 41. What is the main purpose of the new rules according to the first paragraph? ___________________________________________________________________________________________ 42. How are test scores for several subjects now given to students in primary and middle school? ___________________________________________________________________________________________ 43. What skill does the new exam policy (政策) aim to develop in students instead of memorizing facts? ___________________________________________________________________________________________ 44. What will some schools offer if a student’s parents are too busy during the new holidays? ___________________________________________________________________________________________ 45. How can school life become healthier and more enjoyable according to the text? ___________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】41. To help students have a more balanced and happier school life. 42. Students receive a grade like A, B, or C (instead of numbers or ranks). 43. Thinking and problem-solving skills. 44. Some schools may offer fun supervision and activities on campus. 45. By having fewer stressful exams and more time for rest and family. 【解析】 【导语】本文介绍了中国政府为减轻学生压力、促进学生全面发展而推出的两项新举措：减少考试和增设春秋假期，旨在让学生拥有更平衡、健康的校园生活。 【41题详解】 文章第一段“…the Chinese government has introduced some new rules for schools to help students like you have a more balanced and happier school life.”，说明新规定的主要目的是帮助学生拥有更平衡、更快乐的校园生活。 【42题详解】 文章第二段指出“…test scores for several subjects are no longer given as numbers or ranks.

To build a simple wind model, you need several easy materials: thin wooden sticks, plastic blades, a small base and strong glue. These common daily objects help people explore the secret of wind energy easily at home. Here are the making steps. Firstly, fix four plastic blades evenly around the stick. Secondly, stick the stick firmly onto the stable base. Thirdly, place the finished model in an open spot with steady natural wind. The whole process is simple and safe for learners. Wind pushes the blades and makes them spin fast. The rotating blades can produce small power. Wind energy turns into electric energy, which can supply power for tiny lights or small toys. Different from fossil energy, wind energy will never run out and causes no damage to our living environment. Now wind power has been widely applied. Plenty of wind farms are built on hills and coasts. This eco-friendly energy plays an irreplaceable role in protecting the whole earth. 12.How does the writer lead into the topic? A.

As early as the Shang and Zhou Dynasties, governments already had a way to send orders and news. 16 It was most developed in the Tang Dynasty and continued to be used for hundreds of years. The yizhan was built to help pass documents (文件) far and fast. 17 Sometimes, they passed the messages to the next rider. Because of this, news, food, and even money for the emperors could travel quickly across the land. 18 These places were about 30 kilometers from each other. That was just right for a horse to go without stopping. Each place usually had houses for horses, rooms to keep things, kitchens, and beds for riders. 19 Some had tall towers or flags, so people could see them easily. Later, the yizhan took on more new roles. When the Mongols (蒙古人) ruled, it also helped foreign officers and official visitors who came for work. This way helped the government, business, and the sharing of culture. 20 Today, our post offices and ways to communicate still learn from this old idea. Keeping people in touch helped ancient China develop and it still helps us now. A．Riders would stop at these places to change horses or rest. B．Bigger places could hold many people and even had offices. C．This way was called yizhan. D．The yizhan was also built in a very ingenious (巧妙的) way. E．People used yizhan just to send daily food for common people. F．Even the famous traveler Marco Polo said it worked very well. 第二部分 语言运用 第一节（共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分） 从每小题所给的A、B、C三个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的正确答案。 Xiao Jian was a quiet student.

Or wished for more time to relax and enjoy different seasons? Recently, the Chinese government has introduced some new rules for schools to help students like you have a more balanced and happier school life. First, there are new rules to reduce tests. The Ministry of Education wants students to feel less stressed about exams. Now, students in Grades 1 and 2 don’t need to take any paper tests. For other grades in primary and middle school, there is only one final exam each term. Also, test scores for several subjects are no longer given as numbers or ranks. Instead, students receive a grade like A, B, or C. The goal is to change the focus from memorizing facts to developing thinking and problem-solving skills through more interesting class activities. Second, many places are adding new holidays. To give students a better rhythm of study and rest, a “Spring and Autumn Holiday” system is being introduced. Already, eight provinces including Shandong and Zhejiang have started this. These are short breaks added to the school year without reducing total learning days. A very important part of this plan is that it encourages parents to take paid leave (带薪休假) at the same time, so families can enjoy the holidays together. For students whose parents are busy, some schools may offer fun supervision (监管) and activities on campus. These changes are all part of a big effort to improve student well-being. By having fewer stressful exams and more time for rest and family, the school life can become healthier and more enjoyable. The final goal is to help every student grow in a more balanced way—not just in academic (学业的) subjects, but also in their overall happiness and development. 41.
