【解析】
【导语】本文是说明文,介绍演讲时运用肢体语言的技巧,同时提及肢体语言存在文化差异。
【1题详解】
句意:你可以利用肢体语言,成为一名更出色的演讲者。
文章开头提到“giving a speech”和“speak in front of others”,主题是如何通过肢体语言成为更好的“演讲者”。listener(听众)、visitor(访客)、writer(作家)都不符合语境。
【2题详解】
句意:微笑是代表友好的通用符号。
微笑是“友好”的通用信号,后文“people will feel that you are kind”(友善)也呼应了这一点。brave(勇敢的)、frightened(害怕的)、dangerous(危险的)都不对。
【3题详解】
句意:如果你一直盯着你的演讲稿,听众或许会失去兴趣。
此处表示假设“如果你一直看笔记,听众可能会失去兴趣”,if引导条件状语从句。So(所以)、But(但是)、Because(因为)逻辑不对。
【4题详解】
句意:相反,环视四周,让你的目光从一个人转移到另一个人身上。
固定搭配“from one person to another”(从一个人到另一个人),another表示“三者及以上中的另一个”,符合语境。other需要加名词;others是复数;the other特指两者中的另一个,不适用。
【5题详解】
句意:第二,借助你的双手来辅助表达你的想法。
用手帮助“表达”想法,express ideas“表达观点”,符合句意。excuse(原谅)、expect(期待)、explain(解释),不用手势搭配。
【6题详解】
句意:当你描述某个体积很大的事物时,把双臂大大张开。
前文举例“small”时手靠近,此处对应“张开双臂”应表示“大的”东西。small已用,heavy(重的)、light(轻的)与张开双臂无直接关系。
【7题详解】
句意:但是不要用手指指向听众,这个动作会看起来充满怒气或是无礼。
固定搭配point at“用手指指向”,后文“this may look angry or rude”(显得生气或粗鲁)符合指向他人的不当行为。look at(看)、laugh at(嘲笑)、shout at(对……喊)都不符合finger动作。
【8题详解】
句意:取而代之的是,你可以时不时走到舞台的一侧。
前文说“不要长时间站在一个地方”,后文建议“时不时走到另一边”,instead表示“相反,取而代之”。Besides(此外)、However(然而)、Though(虽然)逻辑不对。
【9题详解】
句意:少量走动能让听众保持专注。不要频繁来回走动,否则你可能会让他们感到困惑。
表示“不要走太多,否则可能让听众困惑”,or意为“否则”。and(并且)、so(所以)、but(但是)逻辑不正确。
【10题详解】
句意:除此之外,不同的肢体语言在不同文化中可能拥有不同的含义。
不同文化中肢体语言有不同“含义”,后文举例“一个手势在一个国家礼貌,在另一个国家可能粗鲁”。ways(方式)、points(要点)、expressions(表达)不符合语境。
【11题详解】
句意:一个简单的手部动作在一个国家是礼貌的,但在另一个国家可能会被认为粗鲁或是怪异。
与“rude”并列,指在另一个国家可能被视为“粗鲁或奇怪”,strange“奇怪的”符合语境。correct(正确的)、similar(相似的)、special(特别的)不符合“负面含义”。
【12题详解】
句意:肢体语言上的文化差异很容易在交流中造成误解。
肢体语言的文化差异“容易”导致误解,easily“容易地”修饰lead to。early(早)、wisely(明智地)、impossibly(不可能地)不符语境。
【13题详解】
句意:如果你遵从这些简单的小技巧,你将会获得机会成为一名更加自信的演讲者。
遵循这些建议,你会“获得”成为自信演讲者的机会,get a chance“获得机会”。give(给)、miss(错过)、lose(失去)与语境相反。
【14题详解】
句意:记住,肢体语言是一种强大的工具。
肢体语言是一种强大的“工具”,tool“工具”符合“帮助演讲”的语境。rule(规则)、toy(玩具)、sign(标志)不准确。
【15题详解】
句意:它能让你的演讲更容易被听懂,并且听上去更加令人愉悦。
肢体语言让演讲更易理解,也更“令人愉悦”,enjoyable“愉快的”与“easier to understand”并列。difficult(难的)、serious(严肃的)、careless(粗心的)负面或不合适。
三、阅读理解。
阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳答案。(共15小题,每小题2分,共计30分)
A
There are many great charity organizations in the world. They help people in need and bring hope to them. Here are some of them!

It brings together skilled doctors to arrange operations for these children and provides careful treatment. Many people support it through donations or voluntary work, helping it reach more children in need.
Doctors Without Borders
It was founded in France in 1971 by a group of French doctors and journalists. It is a great international organization. Many volunteer doctors work for it. They go to places hit by war or serious diseases. They treat patients day and night, operate on those in need, and never stop even in dangerous situations.

【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文,主要介绍了三个国际知名的慈善机构——中国红十字会、微笑天使基金会和无国界医生,分别说明了它们的成立时间、服务宗旨与主要工作内容。
【16题详解】
在“The Red Cross Society of China”中,文章明确提到“It was founded in 1904.”,因此中国红十字会成立于1904年。
【17题详解】
在“Smile Angel Foundation”中,文章指出“Its aim is to help children with lip problems.”,因此微笑天使基金会的宗旨是帮助患有唇部疾病的儿童。
【18题详解】
三个组织的共同点是都提供医疗救助:中国红十字会提供基础医疗保障并培训医护人员,微笑天使基金会为唇裂患儿安排手术,无国界医生在战乱或疾病地区救治患者。
B
The use of chopsticks is a must in Chinese food culture. When you use chopsticks in China, there are some taboos you must know.
● Don’t point your chopsticks at others. It is seen as a sign of disrespect. Likewise, don’t wave your chopsticks in the air or play with them when you eat.
● Don’t knock on your bowls or plates with chopsticks. People think this is like begging for food.
● Don’t stir (搅拌) your food with chopsticks to find what you want. This is very rude.
● Don’t let liquid (液体) drop from chopsticks when you take food with them. If the liquid drops on other dishes or the table, it is impolite.
● Never stick chopsticks into your food, especially into rice. This is a way to remember the dead.
● Don’t suck (吮吸) the end of chopsticks. This behavior is impolite, and the noise will also make people uncomfortable.
Now most large restaurants in China offer forks and other places offer Chinese spoons. If you are not used to using chopsticks, you can ask waiters for forks or spoons.
If you want to learn to use chopsticks during your trip in China, your tour guide can teach you how to pick up food and enjoy your meal.
19. What does the underlined word “taboos” mean?
A. Something you should follow. B. Something you must not do.
C. Something you keep as a habit. D. Something you had better try.
20. Which of the following pictures is NOT described in this passage?
A. B. C. D.
21. In China, when may people stick chopsticks into rice?
A. On New Year’s Day. B. On Mother’s Day.
C. On Qingming Festival. D. On Mid-Autumn Festival.
22. Who are the readers of the passage?
A. Chinese students. B. Waiters in restaurants.

【解析】
【导语】本文介绍了在中国使用筷子时必须遵守的几项禁忌,比如不可用筷子指人、敲碗、插在米饭中、吮吸筷子等。同时提到,如果不习惯用筷子,可以请服务员提供叉子或勺子,也可以请导游教如何正确使用筷子。
【19题详解】
第一段:“...there are some taboos you must know.”接着列举了“Don’t point... Don’t knock... Don’t stir...”等禁止行为。推断taboos指“禁忌”,即“不能做的事情”。
【20题详解】
文中提到的禁忌:用筷子搅拌食物(图A),把筷子插在米饭里(图B),用筷子指人(图D),图C:用筷子夹食物递给别人,文中未提及。
【21题详解】
原文提到:“Never stick chopsticks into your food, especially into rice. This is a way to remember the dead.”中国在祭祀祖先或扫墓时(如清明节)会将筷子插在米饭上,象征祭奠死者。
【22题详解】
文章内容分析:介绍中国使用筷子的禁忌,提到“large restaurants offer forks and spoons”,提到“tour guide can teach you how to use chopsticks”推断:文章是写给不了解中国筷子文化的外国游客或访客。
C
I worked as a volunteer for an organization that helped the poor in Haiti. One year, I decided to take my son Brian there for a week, hoping to educate him.
Before setting out, I told Brian this trip would be tiring and hard. For the first two days, he said almost nothing. I worried the trip was too much for a 13-year-old boy. Then on the third day, when we were climbing over high rocky mountains, he turned to me and smiled, “Really hard.”
After that, a five-year-old girl, wearing a too large dress and broken shoes, followed Brian around and was crazy about everything about him. Later he said regretfully (遗憾地), “I wish I could speak French.” I was surprised that this was from a boy who always hated French classes.
Then my quiet son Brian started to chat with Gaby, our host, and kept asking questions about the country and its people. He became active!
However, the moment that really reached my heart happened in a village deep in the mountains. I was interviewing a woman villager for an article. By working hard, she had learned to read and write and became part of the leadership (领导层) of the village
Learning her story, Brian was greatly touched. His eyes were filled with tears and there was love and respect on his face. He finally understood the importance of my work. When leaving for home, Brian even offered to stay as a volunteer. This trip was really meaningful.
23. Why did the writer take her son Brian to Haiti?
A. To let him learn French well. B. To let him visit a poor country for fun.
C. To give him an educational experience. D. To let him know how to be a volunteer.
24. What can we infer (推断) from Brian’s words “I wish I could speak French”?
A. He wanted to have French classes in Haiti.
B. He found French was easy to learn in Haiti.
C. He decided to learn French as soon as he got home.
D. He felt sorry he couldn’t communicate with the little girl.
25. Which of the following statements about the trip is NOT true?
A. A poor five-year-old girl followed Brian around.
B. At first, Brian thought the trip was easy and interesting.
C. The boy was deeply moved by the story of the village woman.
D. The writer worked as a volunteer for an organization helping the poor in Haiti.
26. What does the passage mainly tell us?
A. The poor life of people in Haiti. B. A mother’s work as a volunteer.
C. How a trip changed a boy’s mind. D. The importance of learning French.
【答案】23. C 24. D 25. B 26. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文,主要讲述了一位母亲带儿子Brian前往海地的志愿经历,这次旅程让原本内向的Brian深受触动,从抗拒法语到主动交流,最终理解了志愿工作的意义,甚至愿意留下做志愿者。
【23题详解】
第一段明确提到:“I decided to take my son Brian there for a week, hoping to educate him.”,这直接说明作者带儿子去海地的目的是给他一次教育体验。
【24题详解】
根据文章第三段可知,一个小女孩围着Brian转,随后Brian遗憾地说“I wish I could speak French.”。由此可以推断,因为语言不通,他无法与那个小女孩交流,所以感到遗憾。
【25题详解】
第二段开头提到:“Before setting out, I told Brian this trip would be tiring and hard.”,以及他前几天几乎没说话,直到第三天爬山才说“Really hard.”,说明Brian起初并没有觉得旅行轻松有趣,而是感到辛苦且沉默。因此B项表述不符合原文。
【26题详解】
通读全文可知,文章主要讲述了作者带儿子去海地做志愿者,儿子Brian从一开始的沉默、觉得辛苦,到后来被村民故事感动、甚至愿意留下来做志愿者的转变过程。文章重点在于这次旅行如何改变了男孩的想法。
D
“Quickly, Dorothy,” Aunt Em shouted. “Go to the cellar(地窖).”
Aunt Em ran to the door of the cellar and opened it. Dorothy picked up Toto and ran to the cellar door. Before she could climb down the ladder into the cellar, a great wind picked up the house. It turned the house round and round and round and then carried it high into the sky.
It was not very dark. Dorothy felt as if she were riding through the sky. She held on to Toto and climbed under her bed, where she stayed for several hours. Then, although the house was still moving, she fell asleep.
When she woke up—she did not know how much later—the house was on the ground. It was in a field full of flowers. There were hundreds of beautifully coloured birds flying about and singing. Not far away, there was a stream with clear, fresh water.
Dorothy was still under her bed. She got up and left the house. She was surprised to see three little men and a little woman walking toward her. They were very strangely dressed. The men’s clothes were white and had little stars all over them.
When they saw Dorothy, they walked up to her and bowed(鞠躬).
“Welcome to the land of the Munchkins,” one of the little men said. “We thank you for killing the Wicked Witch of the East. Now our people are free.”
“I’m afraid you are making a mistake,” Dorothy said. “I didn’t kill any witch.”
“Your house did,” one of the little men said. “Look!”
He pointed to the house. Dorothy saw two feet sticking out from under it.
“Oh!” Dorothy shouted. “The house fell on her. What can I do?”
“There is nothing to do,” the little woman said. “The Wicked Witch of the East is dead, and the Munchkins are thankful to you.”
“Are you a Munchkin?” Dorothy asked.
“No, but I am their friend,” the little woman said. “I am the Witch of the North.”
——Adapted from《The Wonderful Wizard of Oz》
27. Where did Dorothy fall asleep?

【答案】27. B 28. C 29. A 30. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文,节选自《绿野仙踪》的开篇部分,主题是多萝西因龙卷风意外被带到陌生的奥兹国,在懵懂中“杀死”了东方恶女巫,受到芒奇金人的欢迎,展现了冒险故事的开端与主角命运的转折,同时传递出“意外事件会开启新的旅程”的童话叙事内核。
【27题详解】
根据文章第三段“She held on to Toto and climbed under her bed, where she stayed for several hours. Then, although the house was still moving, she fell asleep.”可知,多萝西是在床底下睡着的。
【28题详解】
文章情节发展顺序:第二段提到“Aunt Em ran to the door of the cellar and opened it.”(c);接着第二段提到“a great wind picked up the house...carried it high into the sky.”(a);第三段提到多萝西在床下“fell asleep”(d);房子落地后压死了女巫(b),这发生在多萝西睡着之后、醒来之前;第五段提到多萝西走出房子后看到“three little men...walking toward her”(e)。正确顺序为 c-a-d-b-e。
【29题详解】
根据文章第十一段“Dorothy shouted. ‘The house fell on her.’”以及第九段小人说的“Your house did”可知,东方恶女巫是被房子压死的。
【30题详解】
根据最后一段小女人说的“‘No, but I am their friend,’ the little woman said. ‘I am the Witch of the North.’”可知北方女巫是芒奇金人的朋友,C选项正确。芒奇金人感谢多萝西(“Munchkins are thankful to you”),并非生气,A选项错误;文中提到多萝西抱着Toto躲在床下,醒来后离开房子,并未提及丢下Toto,B选项错误;多萝西是通过小人的介绍才知道这里是芒奇金人的国度(“Welcome to the land of the Munchkins”),起初并不知道,D选项错误。

As we all know, there are some differences between Western culture and Chinese culture. We can see differences when we pay attention to the way words are used. ____36____
Most expressions in Chinese about the dog, for example, “a homeless dog”, “a mad dog”, “a running dog” and “a dog catching a mouse”, have bad meanings. But in Western countries, dogs are thought to be honest and good friends of humans. ____37____ For example, “you are a lucky dog” means you are a lucky person. And “every dog has its day” means each person has good luck sometimes. To describe a person’s serious illness, they say “sick as a dog”. The word “dog-tired” means very tired. However, the Chinese love cats very much. ____38____ There are many other examples of how “cat” is used differently as well.
The rose is seen as a symbol of love in both China and some Western countries. ____39____ And the rose is the national flower of England, America and many other countries.
The words about plants and animals are used in positive or negative ways in different cultures. ____40____ This helps us better understand them.
A. Let’s look at some words about animals and plants.
B. In English, people often use the word “dog” in positive expressions.
C. We should pay attention to the words about animals that are used.
D. People think the rose stands for love, peace, courage and friendship.
E. But in western culture, “cat” is often used to describe an unkind woman.
F. We can learn about many differences in cultures by comparing how some words are used.
【答案】36. A 37. B 38. E 39. D 40. F
【解析】
【导语】本文对比了中西方文化里动植物相关词汇的不同含义。汉语中含“狗”的表达多为贬义,英语里“dog”常表褒义;中西方文化对“猫”的寓意也有差别。玫瑰在双方文化中都象征美好。通过对比词汇用法,能了解中西方文化差异。
【36题详解】
第一段提出中西方文化在词汇使用上的差异。第二段开始具体列举动物(狗、猫)的例子。选项A“让我们看看一些关于动物和植物的词汇”,起到承上启下的过渡作用,引出下文举例,贴合语境。故选A。
【37题详解】

【38题详解】
该空前一句说中国人很喜欢猫(正面)。空后一句说“cat”的用法也有很多不同。选项E“但在西方文化中,cat常用来形容不善良的女人”构成了中西对猫看法的对比,选项E中用But形成转折,介绍西方文化中 “猫” 的负面含义,逻辑连贯,符合语境逻辑。故选E。
【39题详解】

For most of us, watching a movie is a pretty common thing to do. But for the blind people who can’t see, it can be very difficult. In Kunming, Yunnan Province, there is a very special theater; Xin Deng Theater (心灯影院). It’s blind-friendly.
More than 5,000 volunteers help at the Xin Deng Theater on weekends. Most of them are university students. “Our main job is to narrate (讲述) films to the blind,” one student said. Before working, volunteers will learn how to tell a film.
Every Saturday, volunteers will come to the bus stop to pick up the blind and take them to the Xin Deng Theater. Then all the blind will sit down to enjoy a movie together. When the movie begins, a volunteer will give lively narrations. He describes what is happening on the screen, including facial expressions (面部表情), the background and even the clothing. With the help of the narrator, the blind immerse (沉浸) themselves in the movie. They laugh when something funny happens and sigh (叹气) during sad situations.
Volunteers at the Xin Deng Theater help blind moviegoers better enjoy their theater trips. Yifan, one of the volunteers, has narrated more than 20 movies. “I could feel they were enjoying the film.

I worked as a volunteer for an organization that helped the poor in Haiti. One year, I decided to take my son Brian there for a week, hoping to educate him.
Before setting out, I told Brian this trip would be tiring and hard. For the first two days, he said almost nothing. I worried the trip was too much for a 13-year-old boy. Then on the third day, when we were climbing over high rocky mountains, he turned to me and smiled, “Really hard.”
After that, a five-year-old girl, wearing a too large dress and broken shoes, followed Brian around and was crazy about everything about him. Later he said regretfully (遗憾地), “I wish I could speak French.” I was surprised that this was from a boy who always hated French classes.
Then my quiet son Brian started to chat with Gaby, our host, and kept asking questions about the country and its people. He became active!
However, the moment that really reached my heart happened in a village deep in the mountains. I was interviewing a woman villager for an article. By working hard, she had learned to read and write and became part of the leadership (领导层) of the village
Learning her story, Brian was greatly touched. His eyes were filled with tears and there was love and respect on his face. He finally understood the importance of my work. When leaving for home, Brian even offered to stay as a volunteer. This trip was really meaningful.

A. To let him learn French well. B. To let him visit a poor country for fun.
C. To give him an educational experience. D. To let him know how to be a volunteer.

“Quickly, Dorothy,” Aunt Em shouted. “Go to the cellar(地窖).”
Aunt Em ran to the door of the cellar and opened it. Dorothy picked up Toto and ran to the cellar door. Before she could climb down the ladder into the cellar, a great wind picked up the house. It turned the house round and round and round and then carried it high into the sky.
It was not very dark. Dorothy felt as if she were riding through the sky. She held on to Toto and climbed under her bed, where she stayed for several hours. Then, although the house was still moving, she fell asleep.
When she woke up—she did not know how much later—the house was on the ground. It was in a field full of flowers. There were hundreds of beautifully coloured birds flying about and singing. Not far away, there was a stream with clear, fresh water.
Dorothy was still under her bed. She got up and left the house. She was surprised to see three little men and a little woman walking toward her. They were very strangely dressed. The men’s clothes were white and had little stars all over them.
When they saw Dorothy, they walked up to her and bowed(鞠躬).
“Welcome to the land of the Munchkins,” one of the little men said. “We thank you for killing the Wicked Witch of the East. Now our people are free.”
“I’m afraid you are making a mistake,” Dorothy said. “I didn’t kill any witch.”
“Your house did,” one of the little men said. “Look!”
He pointed to the house. Dorothy saw two feet sticking out from under it.
“Oh!” Dorothy shouted. “The house fell on her. What can I do?”
“There is nothing to do,” the little woman said. “The Wicked Witch of the East is dead, and the Munchkins are thankful to you.”
“Are you a Munchkin?” Dorothy asked.
“No, but I am their friend,” the little woman said. “I am the Witch of the North.”

七、读写综合。
(一)阅读并回答问题。(共5小题,每小题2分,共计10分)
For most of us, watching a movie is a pretty common thing to do. But for the blind people who can’t see, it can be very difficult. In Kunming, Yunnan Province, there is a very special theater; Xin Deng Theater (心灯影院). It’s blind-friendly.
More than 5,000 volunteers help at the Xin Deng Theater on weekends. Most of them are university students. “Our main job is to narrate (讲述) films to the blind,” one student said. Before working, volunteers will learn how to tell a film.
Every Saturday, volunteers will come to the bus stop to pick up the blind and take them to the Xin Deng Theater. Then all the blind will sit down to enjoy a movie together. When the movie begins, a volunteer will give lively narrations. He describes what is happening on the screen, including facial expressions (面部表情), the background and even the clothing. With the help of the narrator, the blind immerse (沉浸) themselves in the movie. They laugh when something funny happens and sigh (叹气) during sad situations.
Volunteers at the Xin Deng Theater help blind moviegoers better enjoy their theater trips. Yifan, one of the volunteers, has narrated more than 20 movies. “I could feel they were enjoying the film. I was so glad that my volunteer work could bring joy to them,” he said. “I felt as if I was shining a light on their lives.”
