固定搭配imagine doing sth.意为“想象做某事”,后面需用动名词,应选用carrying“携带”。

句意:到马可·波罗到访中国时,纸币已经成为一种常见的事物。
“By the time+过去时间”常与过去完成时连用,主句通常用过去完成时,表示“过去的过去”,应选用had become“已经成为”。

陈述部分“the smart watch has brought us much convenience”是现在完成时的肯定句,主语“the smart watch”指物,代词用“it”,助动词用“has”。根据“前肯后否”原则,疑问部分应用否定形式 “hasn’t it”。
【20题详解】
“smart watches have made communication much easier.”表明Alice在此处表达自己的看法,用短语“In my opinion”引出个人观点。
【21题详解】
“And we use smart watches every day”表明每天都使用智能手表,以使我们能保持健康,用so that引导目的状语从句,因此“so that we can keep healthy”符合逻辑。
【22题详解】
上文提到AI很棒,空后指出它为人类提供了无尽的帮助,此处应是对AI的赞叹,故用感叹句“How fantastic AI is”表达赞叹。
【23题详解】
“these inventions have made our lives more convenient and connected.”表明此处需要引出总结的短语,常用短语为In short。

【导语】本文是一篇应用文,主要介绍了开普敦今年的两项艺术活动:Kids Art Night at Food Plenty 和 High School Art Show,包括活动时间、地点、参与对象、费用及相关特色信息。
【29题详解】
High School Art Show部分指出:“Open: Mon-Fri, 9:00 a.m.-5:00 p.m.”,说明高中艺术展开放时间为周一至周五上午9点到下午5点,所以选项B符合题意。
【30题详解】
Kids Art Night at Food Plenty部分指出:“Price: ¥30 for the first child, ¥25 for each more child.”,说明第一个孩子收费30元,额外的每个孩子收费25元。3个孩子的费用为:30 + 25 + 25 = 80元,因此总费用为¥80。
【31题详解】
High School Art Show部分指出:“Time: Dec 18-Feb.28”,说明展览从12月18日持续到次年2月28日,时长超过两个月,超过一个月。
【32题详解】
Kids Art Night at Food Plenty的时间是“Tuesday, March 12”,High School Art Show的开放时间是“Mon-Fri”,两者都不包含周末,因此周末有时间的李女士两个活动都无法参加。
【33题详解】
根据题干信息,Peter的假期(mid-February to late March)与High School Art Show的截止日期(2月28日)存在重叠,且该日为工作日,符合展览开放时间,因此Peter两项活动均可参加。
【34题详解】
文章开头指出:“Cape Town is having a special art season this year. There are two fun art activities.”,并分别介绍了两项活动的详细信息,因此本文的主要目的是介绍两项城镇艺术活动。
C.Choose the best answer and complete the passage(选择最恰当的选项完成短文)(6分)
Buy less, recycle more—it’s easy to say, but what does it mean? Conscious consumption (环保型消费) is all about making smart choices that benefit both the planet and you. To practice it, you can follow a few key rules.
Suppose you are at a supermarket now. After you pay for your things, remember to choose ____35____ receipts (收据). Today many stores don’t offer printed receipts and have them emailed to you instead, which can greatly reduce the waste of paper.
When it comes to fashion, before heading to the store for new clothes, give your old clothes a second ____36____. You can fix a broken jacket or a broken bag. In addition, many stylists also suggest taking photos of your own clothes. When you are not sure whether a new item is necessary, a quick check on your phone can help ____37____ buying items you already have.
Buying new digital products usually costs a lot. The best way to prevent this is not to ____38____ the latest model. Shop to meet your everyday needs—not just to keep up with fashion. In addition, you can look after your equipment in daily life, which helps lower the risk of damage and make it last longer. For example, laptops and headphones should be cleaned ____39____ so that they can stay in good condition even after years of service. Sometimes, if the shop offers a longer warranty (保修期), just pay for it. Such a choice allows you to get repairs done for free or at a very low price for several years.
These rules might seem too challenging to follow at first. But in 2021, a research team found that people who practice conscious consumption feel more satisfied with their decisions. ____40____, conscious consumers are often happier. So start small, even with just one environmentally-friendly habit.
35. A. usual B. special C. simple D. electronic
36. A. chance B. look C. hand D. time
37. A. recommend B. collect C. avoid D. order
38. A. look for B. worry about C. go after D. think of
39. A. directly B. regularly C. separately D. immediately
40. A. By the way B. After all C. Above all D. In other words
【答案】35. D 36. A 37. C 38. C 39. B 40. D
【解析】
【导语】本文围绕环保型消费展开,介绍了践行环保消费的几条关键原则,包括选择电子收据、循环利用旧衣物、理性购买电子产品等,阐述了环保消费对个人和地球的益处,鼓励人们从点滴小事做起,养成环保的消费习惯。
【35题详解】
句意:付款后,记得选择电子收据。
根据后文“如今许多商店不提供纸质收据,而是可以通过电子邮件发送收据,大大减少纸张浪费”,可知此处应选择“electronic”电子的。“usual”通常的,“special”特别的,“simple”简单的,均不符合减少纸张浪费的语境。
【36题详解】
句意:句意:说到时尚,去商店买新衣服之前,给你的旧衣服第二次机会。
根据后文“你可以修补破夹克或破包,也有造型师建议给旧衣服拍照”,可知此处指让旧衣服再被利用,应用“chance”机会。“look”样子,“hand”手,“time”时间,均不符合让旧衣服重新使用的语境。
【37题详解】
句意:当你不确定一件新物品是否必要时,快速查看手机上的照片可以帮你避免购买已经有的东西。
前文提到先给旧衣服拍照再判断是否需要买新的,目的是避免重复购买,应用“avoid”避免。“recommend”推荐,“collect”收集,“order”订购,均不符合语境。
【38题详解】
句意:避免这种情况的最好方法就是不要追求最新款。
根据后文“不只是为了跟上潮流”,可知此处指不盲目追求最新款,应用“go after”追求。“look for”寻找,“worry about”担心,“think of”想到,均不符合语境。
【39题详解】
句意:例如,笔记本电脑和耳机应该定期清洁,这样即使使用多年也能保持良好状态。
根据后文“这样它们可以多年保持良好状态”,可知此处指定期保养设备,应用“regularly”定期地。“directly”直接地,“separately”分别地,“immediately”立即,均不符合保养设备的语境。
【40题详解】
句意:换句话说,环保消费者通常更快乐。
前文提到践行环保消费的人对自己的决定更满意,此处是对前文内容的进一步解释,应用“In other words”换句话说。“By the way”顺便说一下,“After all”毕竟,“Above all”最重要的是,均不符合上下文逻辑。
D.Answer the questions.(根据短文内容回答下列问题,(14分)
Do you have clothes in your wardrobe that you never wear, but you don’t want to throw away? I think many people do. I have a yellow tweed (粗花呢) shift dress (宽松直筒连衣裙) with buttons down the front. I bought it about five years ago but have only worn it three times. Every time I see it, I feel a little bad. The dress is lovely, so why don’t I wear it?
I decided to give myself a small challenge: to wear the clothes that I rarely wore. After a couple of months, I’ve learned two things.
First, sometimes I just made a wrong choice. My taste has changed over the years, but my shopping habits haven’t. For example, I used to like colorful clothes, but now I wear less color. I need to stop buying clothes for the person I was years ago.
Second, I learned how to fall in love with my old clothes again. The key, it turns out, is rediscovering the spark that drew me to them in the first place. In other words, I try to make myself back to what I saw in the changing-room mirror that made me hand over my credit card.
This idea helped me with my yellow dress. I bought it because I wanted to dress up for small weekend outings I might have. I could just wear jeans and a sweater. But when I wear that pretty yellow dress to buy tomatoes or go for a walk, I simply find myself in a better mood.
So, what should I wear today?
41. When did the author buy the yellow tweed shift dress?
__________________________________________________________
42. Why did the author feel bad every time she saw the yellow dress?
__________________________________________________________
43. What small challenge did the writer set for herself?
__________________________________________________________
44. Why did the author buy the yellow dress in the first place?
__________________________________________________________
45. How does the author feel when she goes out to buy tomatoes while wearing the yellow dress?
__________________________________________________________
46. The author mentioned wearing color less as she got older. Have you ever noticed your taste in clothing changing over time? How does the change make you feel? (Write at least 25 words.)
_________________________________________________________
【答案】41.
About five years ago.
42.
Because she bought it about five years ago but has only worn it three times.
43.
To wear the clothes that she rarely wore.
44.
Because she wanted to dress up for small weekend outings.
45.
She finds herself in a better mood.
46.
Yes, I have noticed my taste in clothing changing over time. I preferred bright colors before, but now I like simple styles. This change makes me feel more mature and comfortable with myself.

【答案】
Dear Tom,
I’m glad to hear from you. I understand your worries about Creative Fashion Day. Don’t be nervous—it’s a chance to show your creativity!
Here are my suggestions. You can use old newspapers to make a cool hat and a short coat. First, cut newspapers into strips and weave them. Then, use colorful plastic bags to add bright buttons. Remember to make the clothes comfortable to wear.
I think creative fashion is not only fun but also environmentally friendly. It turns waste into something new and beautiful.
Hope my advice helps. Good luck!
Yours,
Li Hua

Buy less, recycle more—it’s easy to say, but what does it mean? Conscious consumption (环保型消费) is all about making smart choices that benefit both the planet and you. To practice it, you can follow a few key rules.
Suppose you are at a supermarket now. After you pay for your things, remember to choose ____35____ receipts (收据). Today many stores don’t offer printed receipts and have them emailed to you instead, which can greatly reduce the waste of paper.
When it comes to fashion, before heading to the store for new clothes, give your old clothes a second ____36____. You can fix a broken jacket or a broken bag. In addition, many stylists also suggest taking photos of your own clothes.

Buying new digital products usually costs a lot. The best way to prevent this is not to ____38____ the latest model. Shop to meet your everyday needs—not just to keep up with fashion. In addition, you can look after your equipment in daily life, which helps lower the risk of damage and make it last longer. For example, laptops and headphones should be cleaned ____39____ so that they can stay in good condition even after years of service.

These rules might seem too challenging to follow at first. But in 2021, a research team found that people who practice conscious consumption feel more satisfied with their decisions. ____40____, conscious consumers are often happier. So start small, even with just one environmentally-friendly habit.

D.Answer the questions.(根据短文内容回答下列问题,(14分)
Do you have clothes in your wardrobe that you never wear, but you don’t want to throw away? I think many people do. I have a yellow tweed (粗花呢) shift dress (宽松直筒连衣裙) with buttons down the front. I bought it about five years ago but have only worn it three times. Every time I see it, I feel a little bad. The dress is lovely, so why don’t I wear it?
I decided to give myself a small challenge: to wear the clothes that I rarely wore. After a couple of months, I’ve learned two things.
First, sometimes I just made a wrong choice. My taste has changed over the years, but my shopping habits haven’t. For example, I used to like colorful clothes, but now I wear less color. I need to stop buying clothes for the person I was years ago.
Second, I learned how to fall in love with my old clothes again. The key, it turns out, is rediscovering the spark that drew me to them in the first place. In other words, I try to make myself back to what I saw in the changing-room mirror that made me hand over my credit card.
This idea helped me with my yellow dress. I bought it because I wanted to dress up for small weekend outings I might have. I could just wear jeans and a sweater. But when I wear that pretty yellow dress to buy tomatoes or go for a walk, I simply find myself in a better mood.
So, what should I wear today?
41. When did the author buy the yellow tweed shift dress?
__________________________________________________________
42. Why did the author feel bad every time she saw the yellow dress?
__________________________________________________________
43. What small challenge did the writer set for herself?
__________________________________________________________
44. Why did the author buy the yellow dress in the first place?
__________________________________________________________
45. How does the author feel when she goes out to buy tomatoes while wearing the yellow dress?
__________________________________________________________
46. The author mentioned wearing color less as she got older. Have you ever noticed your taste in clothing changing over time? How does the change make you feel? (Write at least 25 words.)
