He was a statesman (政治家) and worked out many reforms(改革) for the state, like paying more attention to farming and giving rewards (报酬) to soldiers who were successful when at war. But these reforms were not easily carried out (执行) at first. Most people didn’t trust Shang Yang. In order to solve this problem, Shang Yang came up with an idea. He put a thin wooden pole at the south gate of the Qin capital. Many people came to see him and the pole. Then, in front of the crowd, Shang Yang said loudly, “The man who takes this pole to the north gate will get 10 gold pieces.” It was a simple job and the reward was so large. However, some time passed and no one stepped forward. They all thought Shang Yang was making a joke. Hearing no answer, Shang Yang stepped forward and said, “The reward now goes to 50 gold pieces.” This reward was unbelievably large. Finally, a man from the crowd came forward. He put the pole on his shoulders and walked to the north gate. True to his word, Shang Yang gave the man 50 gold pieces. After that, the people of Qin were all talking about what Shang Yang did about the pole. They believed he was a man of his word. So when Shang Yang began carrying out his reforms, the people followed him. Under these great reforms, Qin grew stronger and stronger. At last, Qin made all the seven states into one empire (帝国). 31.

Why did Shang Yang's reward increase at last? A. Because a man stepped forward. B. Because there wasn’t enough time. C. Because Shang Yang heard no answer. D. Because Shang Yang was happy. 34. “They believed he was a man of his word.” What does the underlined part mean? A. A man who can speak loudly. B. A man who likes to speak a lot. C.

C. The south gate fell down. D. The state of Qin became weaker and weaker. 【答案】31. A 32. D 33. C 34. C 35. B 【解析】 【分析】本文介绍了商鞅。商鞅是秦国的一位政治家。为国家制定了许多改革方案，比如更加注重农业，给战争中成功的士兵奖励。但这些改革起初并不容易实施。为了让人们相信他，商鞅想出了一个主意。他在秦都南门放了一根细木杆。并大声说：“谁把这根杆子带到北门谁就会会得到10块金币。”起初，没有人向前。他们都认为商鞅是在开玩笑。由于没人肯出来做，于是他把奖励增加到50块金币。 这次，人群中出现了一个人。他把杆子扛在肩上，走到北门。为了信守诺言，商鞅给了那人50块金币。此后，人们对商鞅信任有加，他们相信他是信守诺言的人。于是商鞅就开始实行他的改革，人民也跟着他。在这些伟大的改革下，秦国变得越来越强大。最后，秦始皇把七国统一为一个帝国。 【31题详解】 细节理解题。根据He was a statesman (政治家) and worked out many reforms(改革) for the state, like paying more attention to farming and giving rewards (报酬) to soldiers who were successful when at war. 他是一位政治家，为国家制定了许多改革方案，比如更加注重农业，给战争中成功的士兵奖励。可知，商鞅是一位政治家。故选A。 【32题详解】 细节理解题。根据He put a thin wooden pole at the south gate of the Qin capital. Many people came to see him and the pole. Then, in front of the crowd, Shang Yang said loudly, “The man who takes this pole to the north gate will get 10 gold pieces.” 他在秦都南门放了一根细木杆。许多人来看他和杆子。然后，在人群面前，商鞅大声说：“把这根杆子带到北门的人会得到10块金币。”可知，为了进行改革，他的想法是能抗着杆子从南门到北门的人会得到10块金币。故选D。 【33题详解】 细节理解题。根据Hearing no answer, Shang Yang stepped forward and said, “The reward now goes to 50 gold pieces.” 商鞅听不到回答，上前说：“现在奖励50块金块。”可知，商鞅增加奖励是因为他听不到回答。故选C。 【34题详解】 细节理解题。A. A man who can speak loudly.能大声说话的人。B. A man who likes to speak a lot. 喜欢说大话的人。C. A man who keeps his word. 信守诺言的人。D.

From strangers to your family and closest friends, there are many nice things we can say to them to bring a little kindness to the world. However, some people find it difficult to say something nice to others. Recently, the topic “Don’t feel ashamed to give praise” has gone popular on social media. People shared personal experiences when people felt too shy to say something nice about someone. They also expressed their worries: “What if others think my words are just flattery(奉承)?” “What if I praise someone and only get the cold shoulder?” Because of these fears, some choose to stay quiet, leaving kind words unsaid. This small habit seems harmless, but it can hide our true feelings. Little by little, we get used to keeping our praise, care and kindness deep inside. Over time, it can change our relationships and even reduce our own sense of happiness. As a result, we may start to feel distant from others. In fact, saying something nice doesn’t mean we are trying to please others against our wishes. Instead, it shows we pay attention to the strengths and efforts of those around us, and we value and respect them. A simple and sincere praise can warm someone’s heart, reduce misunderstandings (误会) and bring people together. So next time you see your friend wearing a beautiful coat, why not give him sincere praise? For example, you can focus on details like “This colour looks great on you!” or “You really have good taste in music!” These kind words not only make your friend happy but also create a pleasant feeling between you. Kind words cost nothing, but they can mean everything. 36. Why do some people find it hard to praise others? A. Because they like to keep their praise inside. B. Because they think kind words cost too much. C. Because they may praise others against wishes. D. Because they worry others will not like their words. 37. What does the phrase “cold shoulder” in Paragraph 2 probably mean? A. A polite and warm welcome. B. A shy and quiet conversation. C. A silent and unfriendly reply. D. A cold and dishonest manner. 38. The writer mentions “This colour looks great on you” as an example to show that ________. A. praise on clothing is always the perfect choice B. a simple and detailed praise can build good relationships C. a simple praise can sometimes reduce misunderstandings D. friends usually care more about their appearance than other things 39. What would be the best title of the passage? A. The Secret to True Happiness B. Why We Should Not Praise Others C. The Power of a Sincere Praise D. How to Avoid Misunderstandings 40. What is the writer’s main purpose in writing this passage? A. To explain why some people are afraid of giving praise. B. To encourage readers to express sincere praise to others. C. To tell readers how to tell flattery from true praise. D. To show that keeping kind words inside is sometimes better. 【答案】36. D 37. C 38. B 39. C 40. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇议论文。讲述了人们不敢真诚赞美他人的原因、负面影响，并鼓励大家勇敢表达善意与赞美。 【36题详解】 文章第三段第四句、第五句“What if others think my words are just flattery?”“What if I praise someone and only get the cold shoulder?”指出，人们担心别人不喜欢自己的赞美，所以难以开口。 【37题详解】 根据画线词所在句“What if I praise someone and only get the cold shoulder?”并结合该段中人们担心赞美会被视为奉承可推知，人们害怕赞美别人后得到冷淡、不友好的回应，因此“cold shoulder”意为“沉默而不友好的回应”。 【38题详解】 文章第六段“A simple and sincere praise can warm someone’s heart... create a pleasant feeling between you.”指出，作者举这个例子是为了说明简单而具体的赞美可以增进人际关系。 【39题详解】 通读全文，文章开头指出赞美很容易，接着分析人们不敢赞美的原因及其负面影响，然后指出真诚赞美的价值并鼓励读者表达赞美。全文围绕“真诚赞美的力量”展开。 【40题详解】 根据第六段中的“So next time you see your friend wearing a beautiful coat, why not give him sincere praise?”以及最后一段“Kind words cost nothing, but they can mean everything.”可知，作者的主要目的是鼓励读者向他人表达真诚的赞美。 四、单词填空（共10题，每小题1分，满分10分。） 41.

I was excited but also worried about the ____51____ between China and South Korea. On the first day, when I met my cousin’s family, they greeted me with a deep bow (鞠躬). I didn’t know what to do at first, so I just stood there. Then my cousin told me that bowing is a way to greet people there. Later, I learned that in South Korea, people also pay attention to how ____52____ at the table. For example, you shouldn’t start eating before the elders. And you shouldn’t talk loudly while eating. One day, we went to a park. I met a local girl. She was very friendly and wanted to make friends with me. She tried to hug me, ____53____ I remembered that in South Korea, people usually don’t hug strangers. So I bowed to her ____54____. She smiled and said I was welcome. I ____55____ there for a month. During that time, I learned many customs. I realized that understanding other cultures can help us get on well with people from other countries. 【答案】51. differences 52. to behave 53. but 54. instead 55. stayed 【解析】 【导语】本文主要讲述了作者去韩国拜访表弟时，经历的中韩文化差异，以及作者如何适应当地习俗的故事。 【51题详解】 句意：我对中国和韩国之间的差异感到兴奋但也担忧。空格前有定冠词the，后接介词between，表示“两者之间的不同”，different的名词形式是difference，且中韩之间有多处差异，用复数形式differences。 【52题详解】 句意：在韩国，人们也注意在餐桌上的行为举止。空格前how表示“如何、怎样”，后需接动词表示“行为表现”，behave符合语境，how to behave为“疑问词+不定式”结构作宾语。 【53题详解】 句意：她试图拥抱我，但我记得在韩国人们通常不拥抱陌生人。前后句是转折关系，“想拥抱”与“不能拥抱”相反，用but表示转折。 【54题详解】 句意：所以我向她鞠躬来代替拥抱。作者没有拥抱对方，而是选择了鞠躬这一替代动作。instead意为“代替，反而”，符合句意，放在句末修饰动作。 【55题详解】 句意：我在那里待了一个月。空格后“for a month”表示一段时间，需延续性动词，stay表示“停留、待”；描述去年发生的事情用一般过去时，stay的过去式是stayed。 六、信息还原（共5题，每小题1分，满分5分） 请认真阅读下面短文，从短文后所给的六个选项中选出五个可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 Eye contact (接触) means looking into another person’s eyes. ____56____ You may avoid looking someone in the eye when talking with them because you are shy. But in many cases, eye contact is the key to good communication. You can show friendliness, interest and understanding through eye contact. ____57____ For example, in northern Europe, direct eye contact is a sign that you are truly interested in what the other person is saying. If you look down and avoid eye contact, a northern European may think you are not listening to what they are saying.____58____ Looking down when talking with an older person, like a teacher or a parent, is polite.

He was a statesman (政治家) and worked out many reforms(改革) for the state, like paying more attention to farming and giving rewards (报酬) to soldiers who were successful when at war. But these reforms were not easily carried out (执行) at first. Most people didn’t trust Shang Yang. In order to solve this problem, Shang Yang came up with an idea. He put a thin wooden pole at the south gate of the Qin capital. Many people came to see him and the pole. Then, in front of the crowd, Shang Yang said loudly, “The man who takes this pole to the north gate will get 10 gold pieces.” It was a simple job and the reward was so large. However, some time passed and no one stepped forward. They all thought Shang Yang was making a joke. Hearing no answer, Shang Yang stepped forward and said, “The reward now goes to 50 gold pieces.” This reward was unbelievably large. Finally, a man from the crowd came forward. He put the pole on his shoulders and walked to the north gate. True to his word, Shang Yang gave the man 50 gold pieces. After that, the people of Qin were all talking about what Shang Yang did about the pole. They believed he was a man of his word. So when Shang Yang began carrying out his reforms, the people followed him. Under these great reforms, Qin grew stronger and stronger. At last, Qin made all the seven states into one empire (帝国). 31. What did Shang Yang do? A. A statesman. B. A king. C. An emperor. D. A soldier. 32. In order to carry out his reforms, what idea did Shang Yang have? A. Having a wooden pole carrying competition. B. Having a wooden pole cutting competition C. The man stepping forward first would be praised. D. The man carrying the pole from south gate to the north one would get some gold pieces. 33. Why did Shang Yang's reward increase at last? A. Because a man stepped forward. B. Because there wasn’t enough time. C. Because Shang Yang heard no answer. D. Because Shang Yang was happy. 34. “They believed he was a man of his word.” What does the underlined part mean? A. A man who can speak loudly. B. A man who likes to speak a lot. C. A man who keeps his word. D. A man of few words. 35. After these great reforms, what happened in the history of China? A. Shang Yang became the first emperor. B. The first empire of China appeared. C. The south gate fell down. D. The state of Qin became weaker and weaker. C Sometimes, making someone happy is easy—just say a few words that really satisfy him. From strangers to your family and closest friends, there are many nice things we can say to them to bring a little kindness to the world. However, some people find it difficult to say something nice to others. Recently, the topic “Don’t feel ashamed to give praise” has gone popular on social media. People shared personal experiences when people felt too shy to say something nice about someone. They also expressed their worries: “What if others think my words are just flattery(奉承)?” “What if I praise someone and only get the cold shoulder?” Because of these fears, some choose to stay quiet, leaving kind words unsaid. This small habit seems harmless, but it can hide our true feelings. Little by little, we get used to keeping our praise, care and kindness deep inside. Over time, it can change our relationships and even reduce our own sense of happiness. As a result, we may start to feel distant from others. In fact, saying something nice doesn’t mean we are trying to please others against our wishes. Instead, it shows we pay attention to the strengths and efforts of those around us, and we value and respect them. A simple and sincere praise can warm someone’s heart, reduce misunderstandings (误会) and bring people together. So next time you see your friend wearing a beautiful coat, why not give him sincere praise? For example, you can focus on details like “This colour looks great on you!” or “You really have good taste in music!” These kind words not only make your friend happy but also create a pleasant feeling between you. Kind words cost nothing, but they can mean everything. 36. Why do some people find it hard to praise others? A. Because they like to keep their praise inside. B. Because they think kind words cost too much. C. Because they may praise others against wishes. D. Because they worry others will not like their words. 37. What does the phrase “cold shoulder” in Paragraph 2 probably mean? A. A polite and warm welcome. B. A shy and quiet conversation. C. A silent and unfriendly reply. D. A cold and dishonest manner. 38. The writer mentions “This colour looks great on you” as an example to show that ________. A. praise on clothing is always the perfect choice B. a simple and detailed praise can build good relationships C. a simple praise can sometimes reduce misunderstandings D. friends usually care more about their appearance than other things 39. What would be the best title of the passage? A. The Secret to True Happiness B. Why We Should Not Praise Others C. The Power of a Sincere Praise D. How to Avoid Misunderstandings 40. What is the writer’s main purpose in writing this passage? A. To explain why some people are afraid of giving praise. B. To encourage readers to express sincere praise to others. C. To tell readers how to tell flattery from true praise. D. To show that keeping kind words inside is sometimes better. 四、单词填空（共10题，每小题1分，满分10分。） 41.
