A．reason B．result C．aim D．excuse 【答案】C 【详解】句意：——这次社区活动的目的是什么？——为山区的贫困儿童收集旧书。 reason原因；result结果；aim目的；excuse借口。根据答语“To collect old books...”可知，不定式短语表示活动的目标或意图，故此处询问“社区活动的目的”，应填aim。 2．To them, the most important thing is ________ make much money ________ get together. A．not; but to B．not; but C．not; but not to D．not to; but to 【答案】D 【详解】句意：对他们来说，最重要的事情不是赚很多钱，而是聚在一起。 not...but...意为“不是……而是……”,连接前后两个并列成分。本句中is后应用动词不定式作表语，为了保持结构平行，not和but后面都需要接带to的不定式，即not to...but to...。 3．Though Tom was born ________, he can still understand others’ kindness through their facial expressions and body language. A．blind B．deaf C．disabled D．poor 【答案】B 【详解】句意：虽然汤姆天生聋的，但他仍然能通过他们的面部表情和肢体语言理解他人的善意。 blind盲的；deaf聋的；disabled残疾的；poor贫穷的。根据“through their facial expressions and body language”可知是通过视觉观察来理解善意，天生盲的无法看见表情，而天生聋的虽听不见声音但可以看见表情，符合语境逻辑。故选 deaf。 4．These traditional folk songs ________ local people for many years, while that new song ________ its beautiful melody all over the city now. A．are popular with; is popular for B．have been popular with; is popular for C．have been popular with; are popular for D．are popular with; are popular for 【答案】B 【详解】句意：这些传统民歌多年来一直受到当地人的喜爱，而那首新歌现在因其优美的旋律在全市流行。 are popular with受……欢迎；is popular for因……而流行；have been popular with一直受……欢迎；are popular for因……而流行。根据“for many years”可知，第一空应用现在完成时，主语These traditional folk songs为复数，故填have been popular with；根据“now”可知，第二空应用一般现在时，主语that new song为单数，故填is popular for。 5．After years of training and practice, she became ________ to compete with each player and win honor for her country. A．strong enough B．enough strong C．too strong D．too weak 【答案】A 【详解】句意：经过多年的训练和练习，她变得足够强大，能够与每位选手竞争并为国家赢得荣誉。 根据“After years of training and practice”和“win honor for her country”可知，这里指她变得足够强大能够与每位选手竞争，enough修饰形容词要后置，即strong enough；too…to…表示“太……而不能……”，不符合语境。 6．Many people volunteer for the charity, ________ young people. A．exactly B．almost C．probably D．especially 【答案】D 【详解】句意：许多人为慈善机构做志愿者，尤其是年轻人。 exactly准确地；almost几乎；probably可能；especially特别是。根据句意，强调年轻人更突出，应填especially。 7．—I’m afraid the charity activity will not go well without enough support. —________. Many people are willing to help us. A．No way B．That’s bad C．You’re welcome D．Take it easy 【答案】D 【详解】句意：——我担心如果没有足够的支持，慈善活动不会顺利进行。——别紧张。很多人愿意帮助我们。 No way没门；That’s bad那太糟糕了；You’re welcome不客气；Take it easy别紧张。根据答语后句“Many people are willing to help us.”可知，很多人愿意帮忙，所以此处是安慰对方不要担心，应填Take it easy。 8．The opening ceremony (仪式) didn’t begin ________ all players arrived and took their seats. A．unless B．until C．when D．though 【答案】B 【详解】句意：开幕式直到所有运动员到达并就座后才开始。 unless除非；until直到……为止；when当……时候；though虽然。根据句中“didn’t begin”可知，此处考查“not...until...”（直到……才……）的固定搭配，强调动作直到某一时刻才发生。应填until。 9．If you ________ something, you should say “Thank you”. A．give B．will give C．are given D．was given 【答案】C 【详解】句意：如果你被给予某样东西，你应该说“谢谢”。 主语you与动词give之间是被动关系，应用被动语态；if引导的条件状语从句中，主句含情态动词should，从句用一般现在时，因此用一般现在时被动语态are given。 10．Alina ________ work on a farm, but now she ________ at school with the help of UNICEF. A．used to; is used to study B．was used to; is used to studying C．was used to; is used to study D．used to; is used to studying 【答案】D 【详解】句意：阿丽娜过去常在农场工作，但现在在联合国儿童基金会的帮助下，她习惯于在学校学习。 used to do sth.意为“过去常常做某事”；be used to doing sth. 意为“习惯于做某事”，其中to是介词，后接动名词。根据前半句语境可知表示过去的状态，用used to；后半句表示现在习惯于学习，用is used to studying。 二、完形填空(本题共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分) What do you want to be when you grow up? Everyone has a 11 , big or small. Do you know what Lu Xun 12 to be when he was young? Lu Xun, also 13 Zhou Shuren, was born in 1881. People still 14 and talk about this great writer now. All of us 15 his books, for example, From Bai Cao Garden to San Wei Study. He is such a 16 writer that we know many of his characters, such as Runtu and Kong Yiji. Lu Xun’s life experiences can 17 guide young people today. Lu Xun went to Japan in 1902 to study 18 because his father died of illness. However, when he saw the dark society in the early 20th century, he made a decision to use a pen to make a 19 , not a scalpel (手术刀) . He wrote stories to show people the real China then. He spent all his life 20 ways to save the country. Though Lu Xun wrote his works in his time, the ideas in them are still true today. For example, the story of Kong Yiji brings out Lu Xun’s 21 of the exam-based education system. Kong Yiji lived a(n) 22 and hard life, and he believed people could be successful only through exams. 23 , China is improving education day by day. All students now can be successful if they have 24 and work hard. Do you want to be a person 25 Lu Xun when you grow up? Anyway, please take action from now on. 11．A．program B．dream C．story D．problem 12．A．wanted B．happened C．pointed D．forgot 13．A．asked B．helped C．named D．seemed 14．A．believe B．question C．remember D．learn 15．A．read B．see C．look D．watch 16．A．serious B．quiet C．common D．famous 17．A．too B．still C．only D．ever 18．A．education B．medicine C．science D．Japanese 19．A．difference B．rule C．plan D．rely 20．A．writing down B．turning down C．paying for D．looking for 21．A．like B．care C．dislike D．preparation 22．A．happy B．rich C．poor D．interesting 23．A．Hardly B．Luckily C．Finally D．Mostly 24．A．time B．power C．money D．talent 25．A．like B．but C．as D．so 【答案】 11．B 12．A 13．C 14．C 15．A 16．D 17．B 18．B 19．A 20．D 21．C 22．C 23．B 24．D 25．A 【导语】本文主要介绍了鲁迅先生年少立志、弃医从文的人生经历，同时对比旧时与如今的教育现状，启迪读者树立人生理想。 【详解】11．句意：每个人都有一个梦想，或大或小。 首句“What do you want to be when you grow up?”说明文章围绕长大后的理想展开话题，应选用dream，表示“梦想”。program“项目”、story“故事”、problem“难题”，均和理想话题无关。 12．句意：你知道鲁迅年轻时想成为什么吗？ 前文询问大家的梦想，此处对应询问鲁迅当年的志向。wanted to be表示“想成为”。happened“发生”、pointed“指着”、forgot“忘记”，均无法和to be搭配表意。 13．句意：鲁迅，本名周树人，生于1881年。 空后是人名Zhou Shuren，此处为别名注释，应选用named，表示“被称作”。asked“询问”、helped“帮助”、seemed“似乎”，均不能用于介绍本名。 14．句意：如今人们依旧铭记、谈论这位伟大的作家。 后文“talk about this great writer”说明大家仍然记得他，应选用remember，表示“铭记”。believe“相信”、question“质疑”，均不符合语境；learn“学习”，不能直接接人物作宾语。 15．句意：我们所有人都读过他的书籍，例如《从百草园到三味书屋》。 根据宾语“his books”可知，此处表示读书，应用read。see、look、watch三者虽都有“看”的含义，但不与book构成“阅读”这一核心含义，故排除。 16．句意：他是一位如此著名的作家，以至于我们知道他笔下众多人物。 后文“we know many of his characters”体现鲁迅知名度高，应选用famous，表示“著名的”。serious“严肃的”，quiet“安静的”，common“普通的”，词义与语境不符。 17．句意：鲁迅的人生阅历如今仍然能够指引年轻人。 鲁迅的人生经历发生在过去，而空后“today”体现现在时间，说明需要一个表示“从过去延续到现在”的副词。“still”用来强调时至今日仍旧，符合语境。too作副词多放置在句子末尾；only侧重限定范围“仅仅”，语义不符；ever常用在现在完成时态中，此处时态不匹配。 18．句意：鲁迅在1902年去日本学医，因为他的父亲因病去世了。 后文出现“scalpel (手术刀)”，手术刀归属于医学领域，medicine“医学”，符合逻辑。education“教育”、science“科学”、Japanese“日语”均和医疗器械没有关联。 19．句意：他决定用笔来做出改变，而不是用手术刀。 “He wrote stories to show people the real China…ways to save the country.”说明鲁迅通过写作产生了实际影响，make a difference“产生影响/改变”，符合语境。rule“规则”、plan“计划”，均不符合语境；rely“依赖”，是动词，不能放在冠词a后面。 20．句意：他穷尽一生寻找救国之路。 “ways to save the country”指救国的办法，looking for“寻找”，搭配后文宾语逻辑通顺。writing down“写下”，宾语多为文字、内容，无法搭配ways；turning down“拒绝”，paying for“付款”，二者和救国的办法逻辑不符。 21．句意：例如，孔乙己的故事引出了鲁迅对应试教育制度的厌恶。 后文“Kong Yiji lived…hard life, and he believed people could be successful only through exams.”介绍孔乙己被科举束缚、一生坎坷，能看出作者对旧式应试教育持否定态度，dislike“反感”。like“喜欢”，词义和原文相反，care“在意”、preparation“准备”，词义与语境不符。 22．句意：孔乙己过着贫穷且艰难的生活。 “and”连接两个并列形容词修饰“life”，且空后为“hard”，两者应方向一致。poor“贫穷的”，符合孔乙己的生活状况。happy“快乐的”，interesting“有趣的”，rich“富有的”均和艰难境遇相悖。 23．句意：幸运的是，中国的教育水平日益提高。 后文“China is improving education”点明教育正向发展，新旧教育状况形成反差，Luckily“幸运地”，契合转折逻辑。Hardly“几乎不”，带否定含义，Finally“最后地”，侧重事情收尾，Mostly“主要地”，三者都不符合语境。 24．句意：现在所有的学生都可以成功，如果他们有天赋并努力工作。 原文and连接两个并列的成功条件，后半部分是“work hard”，talent“天赋”可与“努力”并列作为成才要素。time“时间”、power“力量”、money“金钱”，均不是学业成功的必备条件。 25．句意：你长大了想成为像鲁迅那样的人吗？ 空后为专有名词“Lu Xun”，所以此处需填介词表类比含义，like可作介词，译为“像……一样”；but“但是”、so“所以”均为连词，无法置于名词前表类比。as作介词侧重“作为”，代入句意语义不符。 三、 阅读理解(本题共15小题；每小题2分, 满分30分) I hoped to be set free one day, so I was nice to the Lilliputians. Slowly, they lost their fear of me. Sometimes the children even played hide-and-seek in my hair. One day, the king said to me, “Gulliver, I invite you to watch an important performance.” It was a competition called “Rope Dancing”. In the competition, a thin rope was tied between two poles (柱子) very high above the ground. People had to dance on this rope. Each dancer tried to jump higher than the others. I had never seen such a dangerous sport. “Your Majesty,” I said, “many dancers must fall and be hurt or killed.” “Yes,” he replied, “But I will give the best jobs in my kingdom to the men who are not afraid and jump the highest.” “What a strange way to choose the people who will work for the country!” I thought. Then, as the king watched, I tied each corner of my handkerchief (手帕) to a strong stick, and pushed the  four sticks into the ground. My handkerchief was now under the rope but above the ground. Any dancer who fell would land on the handkerchief and not get hurt. The king was very happy with my invention. His family and many other people watched the rope dancing. “Would you and the queen like to see better?” I asked the king. I gently put them on my hand and held them beside the rope. They had a good view of the dancers. A very skilled performer held on to the rope and flipped (翻转) his body right over it. The king and the queen clapped loudly and cheered. Later the king told me that he made this man one of his main helpers. The king and I met often. He seemed to enjoy our conversations. One day, I said again, “Your Majesty, please set me free.” This time he answered, “I have talked to my helpers. We agree that you have been good to our people…” —Adapted from Gulliver’s Travels 26．Why did Gulliver put his handkerchief under the rope? A．To make the rope higher. B．To make the game more difficult. C．To help the dancers avoid getting hurt. D．To win a high position in the kingdom. 27．What did Gulliver do to help the king and the queen see better? A．He flipped his body over the rope. B．He put them on his hand and held them beside the rope gently. C．He tied a thin rope between two poles very high above the ground. D．He tied the handkerchief to four sticks and put them into the ground. 28．What can we learn from Gulliver’s experience in the passage? A．It is easy to get a good job by rope dancing. B．Being kind and helpful can win people’s trust. C．Big people are always stronger than small ones. D．We can sometimes play dangerous sports for fun. 【答案】26．C 27．B 28．B 【导语】本文节选自《格列佛游记》，讲述了格列佛在小人国的经历，他通过友善的举动赢得了国王的信任，并为自己争取自由创造了条件。 【详解】26．根据文中第五段“Any dancer who fell would land on the handkerchief and not get hurt.”可知，格列佛把手帕放在绳子下面，是为了防止舞者受伤。 27．根据文中第六段“‘Would you and the queen like to see better?’ I asked the king. I gently put them on my hand and held them beside the rope.” 可知，格列佛为了让国王和王后看得更清楚，轻轻地把他们放在自己手上，举到绳子旁边。 28．通读全文可知，格列佛为了获得自由，一直对小人国的人很友善，还主动发明装置保护舞者、帮助国王和王后更好地观看表演，最终国王和大臣们认可了他的善意。由此可以看出，善良和乐于助人能赢得他人的信任。 Many people think that only adults can make a difference in the world. However, a group of students from No. 8 Middle School proved that young people can also bring “sunshine” to those in need. Last month, these students started a project called “Care & Share”. Their main goal was to help the homeless people living near the city park. At first, they collected old clothes, blankets, and food from their neighbors and classmates. Within two weeks, they gathered over 300 items! But they didn’t stop there. On weekends, the team went to the park to hand out these supplies. During their visits, they noticed that many homeless people looked sad and lonely. So, the students decided to do more than just give things. They began to sit down and chat with them, listening to their stories. They learned that some of these people used to be teachers, workers, or even artists. One student, Li Meng, said, “I used to be afraid of talking to strangers. But now, I feel happy when I see a smile on their faces. It makes me realize that everyone needs care, no matter who they are.” The project not only helped the homeless but also changed the students themselves. They became more confident and responsible. Now, more students in the school want to join the project. They believe that small acts of kindness can truly make the world a better place. 29．What was the name of the project started by the students? A．Sunshine Project B．Care & Share C．Helping Hands D．Students’ Union 30．What did the students do first to help the homeless? A．They built houses for them. B．They gave them money directly. C．They collected clothes and food. D．They invited them to their school. 31．Why did the students start chatting with the homeless people? A．Because they wanted to practice English. B．Because the homeless people asked them for stories. C．Because they found the homeless people were lonely. D．Because they needed information for a newspaper report. 32．What change happened to the students after the project? A．They became more confident and responsible. B．They decided to leave school early. C．They started to avoid strangers. D．They realized adults should do all the work. 【答案】29．B 30．C 31．C 32．A 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，讲述了第八中学的学生通过“Care & Share”项目帮助无家可归者的故事，展现了年轻人也能通过行动带来改变。 【详解】29．第二段第一句明确指出：“Last month, these students started a project called ‘Care & Share’.”，因此项目名称是“Care & Share”。 30．第二段中提到：“At first, they collected old clothes, blankets, and food from their neighbors and classmates.”，说明他们首先收集衣物和食物。 31．第三段中提到：“During their visits, they noticed that many homeless people looked sad and lonely. So, the students decided to... sit down and chat with them.”，因此他们开始聊天是因为发现无家可归者很孤独。 32．最后一段中提到：“The project not only helped the homeless but also changed the students themselves. They became more confident and responsible.”，说明学生们在项目后变得更加自信和有责任感。 Daisy was in the bathroom of her flat. She was brushing her teeth and the tap was on. “Turn that tap off”, a voice said loudly. Daisy froze. She looked round, but saw no one. “Turn that tap off. You’re wasting water”, the voice sounded impatient. This time Daisy obeyed. “ Who…who are you? ”Daisy’s voice was weak. “I’m water. It’s not easy for me to get here. Do you know where I’m from?” “From the tap, I suppose,” said Daisy. “Yes, yes, but before that?” the voice said. “24 days ago, I was floating comfortably in a cloud in Dongyang, enjoying the view. Then the cloud dropped me into a stream and I sped down the mountain into the Hengjin Reservoir (水库) . You know where that is, I hope.” Daisy nodded. “I relaxed there for a few days, and then I travelled a long way and ran into Yijiashan Water Treatment Centre through a huge pipe. Then it was time to get cleaned up. “Cleaned up?” Daisy sounded puzzled. “Yes. I was dirty after my journey so they took me to a water treatment Centre. They gave me a complete cleaning and added a few chemicals to me. Then I travelled in the pipes under the streets. I waited there until you called me, and here I am. Now you know how difficult for me to get here. So, remember not to waste me or pollute me. See you!” 33．What was Daisy doing when she heard a loud voice? A．She was washing her face. B．She was taking a bath. C．She was brushing her teeth. D．She was washing her clothes. 34．Which is NOT true according to the passage? A．The water could talk in the story. B．It’s a very easy journey for the water. C．Daisy was afraid when she heard the voice. D．The water got a complete cleaning in Yijiashan Water Treatment Centre. 35．Which is the right order according to the passage? a. I relaxed in the Hengjin Reservoir. b. I was cleaned up in a water treatment centre. c. I was floating in a cloud. d. I was sent into the house through pipes. A．a — b — c — d B．b — a — d — c C．c — a — b — d D．c — b — a — d 36．What does the writer ask us to do at the end of the passage? A．To help save water. B．To give water a complete cleaning. C．To travel in the pipes. D．To visit a water treatment centre. 【答案】33．C 34．B 35．C 36．A 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，通过水滴的自述讲述了水从云到水库、再到水处理厂、最后进入家庭的过程，提醒人们节约用水。 33．根据第一段第二句“She was brushing her teeth and the tap was on.”可知，Daisy当时正在刷牙。 34．B项“It’s a very easy journey for the water.”（水的旅程非常轻松）与原文不符。文中水滴讲述了自己从云到水库、再到水处理厂、最后进入房屋管道的过程，并说“It’s not easy for me to get here”，可见旅程并不轻松。A、C、D三项分别在文中提到：水会说话（全文拟人化）、Daisy很害怕（第一段“Daisy froze”）、水在水处理厂被彻底清洗（第四段“They gave me a complete cleaning”）。 35．根据水滴的自述顺序：先“floating in a cloud”（第三段），再“dropped into a stream...into the Hengjin Reservoir”（第三段），然后“went to a water treatment centre...got cleaned up”（第四段），最后“travelled in the pipes...until you called me”（第五段）。正确顺序为c→a→b→d，对应C项。 36．文章最后一句“remember not to waste me or pollute me”直接点明作者希望读者节约用水、不污染水。A项“帮助节约用水”最符合。B、C、D项均为文中提到的过程，并非作者对读者的呼吁。 What do you usually do when you’re on the train? Take a rest, look out of the window, or just use your phone? Have you ever thought about what else you can do on the train? Well, some trains in China have become a space for learning about Chinese culture. Tourists on the K7041 train from Harbin to Mohe in Heilongjiang had a chance to meet five artists from the Oroqen (鄂伦春族). Gulayier Ente, one of the artists, dressed in traditional clothing and sang Oroqen songs. The beautiful music made people cheerful. “For me, this experience is wonderful. Being closer to tourists and communicating with them helps us all enjoy ourselves,” said Gulayier. The train started running in winter to celebrate the Chinese New Year. During the train journey, the artists showed their skills like making birch bark (桦树皮) paintings besides singing and dancing. “We can watch special shows and learn about Chinese culture. It’s really exciting!” said Ms Zhang, a tourist from Guizhou. In fact, more Chinese arts including Qinhuai lanterns from Nanjing and tea-picking operas from Guangxi have also been shown on trains. Trains go across most areas of China, so they are perfect for sharing Chinese culture with more people. Unlike museums, trains can bring cultural experiences directly to people. However, there are still some challenges. For example, the space on trains is a little small, and people get on and off at each station. Train staff (员工) need to work harder to integrate (融入) Chinese culture into train journeys. 37．Which Chinese art is NOT mentioned in the text? A．Birch bark paintings. B．Dragon dances. C．Qinhuai lanterns. D．Tea-picking operas. 38．Why are trains better than museums for culture sharing? A．Because they have more space. B．Because they have enough time. C．Because they can bring cultural experiences directly. D．Because they cost little. 39．What is the text mainly about? A．Culture on trains. B．Train travel. C．Artists’ shows. D．Cultural communication. 40．According to the last paragraph, the writer may talk about ________ next. A．train rules B．better cultural journeys C．tourists’ hopes D．new cultural shows 【答案】37．B 38．C 39．A 40．B 【导语】本文主要介绍了中国火车上出现的文化展示活动，如鄂伦春族艺术家的表演、桦树皮画制作等，分析了火车作为文化传播载体的优势（直接触达人群）以及面临的挑战。 【详解】37．文中提到了“making birch bark (桦树皮) paintings”（第二段）、“Qinhuai lanterns from Nanjing”和“tea-picking operas from Guangxi”（第四段）。文中未提及“Dragon dances”（舞龙）。 38．第四段明确指出：“Unlike museums, trains can bring cultural experiences directly to people.”，说明火车比博物馆更适合分享文化的原因是它能直接将文化体验带给人们。 39．全文围绕火车上的文化活动展开，包括具体的案例、优势分析以及面临的挑战，因此主旨是“Culture on trains”（火车上的文化）。 40．最后一段提到了火车上推广文化面临的挑战（空间小、人员流动大），并指出工作人员需要更努力地将中国文化融入旅程。按照逻辑，接下来可能会讨论如何克服这些困难，提供更好的文化旅程体验，即“better cultural journeys”。 请阅读下面语篇，根据其内容，从方框内所给的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，使其意思通顺，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。选项中有一项为多余选项。 Do you often feel under a lot of pressure from heavy schoolwork? Do you want to clear your mind after a busy week? 41 It’s called “Color Walk”, a new outdoor activity that helps us enjoy the seasons and relax ourselves. Different from common city walking, a Color Walk is like a city treasure hunt. 42 For example, you might choose yellow before going out, and then search for and photograph everything that matches it. After that, you can share some photos of sunflowers, yellow traffic lights, or a lemon cake on TikTok or Xiaohongshu. Many people said they found new joys in familiar streets through Color Walk. Why do young people love Color Walk so much? 43 Looking for colors around you allows you to focus on the moment and stops you from worrying about your homework or exams. It’s like a short break for your mind. What’s more, it lets you discover small beauties in daily life. 44 When you feel lonely or upset, a Color Walk may lead you to look on the bright side of life, turning a boring walk into a joyful journey. 45 It simply needs us to slow down and see with our hearts. Focus on what you see, hear, and smell in the air to collect the wonderful details in the season. It’s not only a “Spring Bingo” game, but also a perfect way to control your attention and manage your emotions. Next time you feel stressed, why not try a Color Walk? I’m sure you can find your own peace and create a “color story” of your own. A．The best part is that it’s easy to start and costs nothing.

In the U.S. (short for the United States), for example, people call their space organization NASA．They almost never use its full name, the National Aeronautics and Space Administration. Many abbreviations are so common that we use them without thinking. Some people feel that they make it easier to talk, read and write. Others don’t think so. They think these shortened words or phrases can cause confusion (困惑). Both sides have an argument to make. FOR Ever since its invention, human language has been changing. Imagine what life would be like if it had stayed the same. We’d still be speaking like Shakespeare, saying “thine” instead of just “yours”! Some abbreviations, like GIF, have become so common that it would sound strange to say them in full. Abbreviations can help to make text and speech shorter and easier to understand. For example, typing “BRB” is a lot faster than writing “I’ll be right back,” isn’t it? AGAINST If abbreviations aren’t used properly, they can slow you down instead of speeding things up. For example, if a word or phrase isn’t written out in full the first time it appears in an article, readers may have to waste time looking it up. Shortened words and phrases can also make people feel left out. It can be embarrassing to ask what “TGIF” means. Languages have kept changing, but not every change is good. Saying “TY” just doesn’t feel as polite as saying “thank you,” does it? In such cases, abbreviations can lead to misunderstandings (误解) and even harm friendships. 66．What does NASA stand for? 67．Why does the writer mention “BRB” and “I’ll be right back”? 68．According to the “AGAINST” part, what bad results can abbreviations cause? List two. 69．Which abbreviation is used as an example of being impolite? 70．What’s your opinion on using abbreviations?（不超过15个词） 【答案】66．National Aeronautics and Space Administration. 67．To show abbreviations can help to make text and speech shorter and easier to understand. 68．They can slow people down and make people feel left out. 69．TY. 70．I think using abbreviations can save time, but we should use them properly. / … 【导语】本文介绍了缩写词在日常生活中的广泛使用，同时从支持和反对两个方面阐述了使用缩写词的不同观点。 【详解】66．根据第一段“They almost never use its full name, the National Aeronautics and Space Administration.”可知，NASA的全称是美国国家航空航天局。 67．根据FOR部分“For example, typing “BRB” is a lot faster than writing “I’ll be right back,” isn’t it?”可知，作者提到这两个表达，是为了说明缩写词的使用能让沟通更快捷。 68．根据AGAINST部分内容，缩写词可能带来的不良影响包括：让读者浪费时间查找含义（拖慢阅读速度）、让人感到被排斥、造成误解甚至伤害友谊，任选两点作答即可。 69．根据AGAINST部分“Saying “TY” just doesn’t feel as polite as saying “thank you,” does it?”可知，TY被作为不礼貌的缩写词例子。 70．本题为开放性问题，要求表达对使用缩写词的看法，字数不超过15个词，言之有理即可。可推知结论我们应该合理使用缩写词。 六、书面表达（满分25分） 71．俗话说：“民以食为天。”中国的饮食文化历史悠久、举世闻名。假如你是学生会主席李华，今年暑假有一批外国朋友要到你的学校参加文化交流夏令营。作为学生代表，请你以“When in China, Eat as the Chinese Eat”为题，向对方介绍去中国家庭聚餐时的餐桌礼仪。 提示：（1）他们需要注意的礼仪；   （2）他们要注意这些礼仪的原因。 注意：（1）内容涵盖提示中的所有要点，全文连贯、通顺；   （2）文中不得出现真实姓名和地名；   （3）词数80个左右（标题和开头已给出，不计入总词数）。 When in China, Eat as the Chinese Eat Food is the first necessity of the people. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 例文: When in China, Eat as the Chinese Eat    Food is the first necessity of the people.

Slowly, they lost their fear of me. Sometimes the children even played hide-and-seek in my hair. One day, the king said to me, “Gulliver, I invite you to watch an important performance.” It was a competition called “Rope Dancing”. In the competition, a thin rope was tied between two poles (柱子) very high above the ground. People had to dance on this rope. Each dancer tried to jump higher than the others. I had never seen such a dangerous sport. “Your Majesty,” I said, “many dancers must fall and be hurt or killed.” “Yes,” he replied, “But I will give the best jobs in my kingdom to the men who are not afraid and jump the highest.” “What a strange way to choose the people who will work for the country!” I thought. Then, as the king watched, I tied each corner of my handkerchief (手帕) to a strong stick, and pushed the  four sticks into the ground. My handkerchief was now under the rope but above the ground. Any dancer who fell would land on the handkerchief and not get hurt. The king was very happy with my invention. His family and many other people watched the rope dancing. “Would you and the queen like to see better?” I asked the king. I gently put them on my hand and held them beside the rope. They had a good view of the dancers. A very skilled performer held on to the rope and flipped (翻转) his body right over it. The king and the queen clapped loudly and cheered. Later the king told me that he made this man one of his main helpers. The king and I met often. He seemed to enjoy our conversations. One day, I said again, “Your Majesty, please set me free.” This time he answered, “I have talked to my helpers. We agree that you have been good to our people…” —Adapted from Gulliver’s Travels 26．Why did Gulliver put his handkerchief under the rope? A．To make the rope higher. B．To make the game more difficult. C．To help the dancers avoid getting hurt. D．To win a high position in the kingdom. 27．What did Gulliver do to help the king and the queen see better? A．He flipped his body over the rope. B．He put them on his hand and held them beside the rope gently. C．He tied a thin rope between two poles very high above the ground. D．He tied the handkerchief to four sticks and put them into the ground. 28．What can we learn from Gulliver’s experience in the passage? A．It is easy to get a good job by rope dancing. B．Being kind and helpful can win people’s trust. C．Big people are always stronger than small ones. D．We can sometimes play dangerous sports for fun. Many people think that only adults can make a difference in the world. However, a group of students from No. 8 Middle School proved that young people can also bring “sunshine” to those in need. Last month, these students started a project called “Care & Share”. Their main goal was to help the homeless people living near the city park. At first, they collected old clothes, blankets, and food from their neighbors and classmates. Within two weeks, they gathered over 300 items! But they didn’t stop there. On weekends, the team went to the park to hand out these supplies. During their visits, they noticed that many homeless people looked sad and lonely. So, the students decided to do more than just give things. They began to sit down and chat with them, listening to their stories. They learned that some of these people used to be teachers, workers, or even artists. One student, Li Meng, said, “I used to be afraid of talking to strangers. But now, I feel happy when I see a smile on their faces. It makes me realize that everyone needs care, no matter who they are.” The project not only helped the homeless but also changed the students themselves. They became more confident and responsible. Now, more students in the school want to join the project. They believe that small acts of kindness can truly make the world a better place. 29．What was the name of the project started by the students?

C．They collected clothes and food. D．They invited them to their school. 31．Why did the students start chatting with the homeless people? A．Because they wanted to practice English. B．Because the homeless people asked them for stories. C．Because they found the homeless people were lonely. D．Because they needed information for a newspaper report. 32．What change happened to the students after the project? A．They became more confident and responsible. B．They decided to leave school early. C．They started to avoid strangers. D．They realized adults should do all the work. Daisy was in the bathroom of her flat.

Then it was time to get cleaned up. “Cleaned up?” Daisy sounded puzzled. “Yes. I was dirty after my journey so they took me to a water treatment Centre.

Have you ever thought about what else you can do on the train? Well, some trains in China have become a space for learning about Chinese culture. Tourists on the K7041 train from Harbin to Mohe in Heilongjiang had a chance to meet five artists from the Oroqen (鄂伦春族). Gulayier Ente, one of the artists, dressed in traditional clothing and sang Oroqen songs. The beautiful music made people cheerful. “For me, this experience is wonderful. Being closer to tourists and communicating with them helps us all enjoy ourselves,” said Gulayier. The train started running in winter to celebrate the Chinese New Year. During the train journey, the artists showed their skills like making birch bark (桦树皮) paintings besides singing and dancing. “We can watch special shows and learn about Chinese culture. It’s really exciting!” said Ms Zhang, a tourist from Guizhou. In fact, more Chinese arts including Qinhuai lanterns from Nanjing and tea-picking operas from Guangxi have also been shown on trains. Trains go across most areas of China, so they are perfect for sharing Chinese culture with more people. Unlike museums, trains can bring cultural experiences directly to people. However, there are still some challenges. For example, the space on trains is a little small, and people get on and off at each station. Train staff (员工) need to work harder to integrate (融入) Chinese culture into train journeys. 37．Which Chinese art is NOT mentioned in the text? A．Birch bark paintings. B．Dragon dances. C．Qinhuai lanterns. D．Tea-picking operas. 38．Why are trains better than museums for culture sharing? A．Because they have more space. B．Because they have enough time. C．Because they can bring cultural experiences directly. D．Because they cost little. 39．What is the text mainly about? A．Culture on trains. B．Train travel. C．Artists’ shows. D．Cultural communication. 40．According to the last paragraph, the writer may talk about ________ next. A．train rules B．better cultural journeys C．tourists’ hopes D．new cultural shows 请阅读下面语篇，根据其内容，从方框内所给的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，使其意思通顺，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。选项中有一项为多余选项。 Do you often feel under a lot of pressure from heavy schoolwork? Do you want to clear your mind after a busy week? 41 It’s called “Color Walk”, a new outdoor activity that helps us enjoy the seasons and relax ourselves. Different from common city walking, a Color Walk is like a city treasure hunt. 42 For example, you might choose yellow before going out, and then search for and photograph everything that matches it. After that, you can share some photos of sunflowers, yellow traffic lights, or a lemon cake on TikTok or Xiaohongshu. Many people said they found new joys in familiar streets through Color Walk. Why do young people love Color Walk so much? 43 Looking for colors around you allows you to focus on the moment and stops you from worrying about your homework or exams. It’s like a short break for your mind. What’s more, it lets you discover small beauties in daily life. 44 When you feel lonely or upset, a Color Walk may lead you to look on the bright side of life, turning a boring walk into a joyful journey. 45 It simply needs us to slow down and see with our hearts.

In the U.S. (short for the United States), for example, people call their space organization NASA．They almost never use its full name, the National Aeronautics and Space Administration. Many abbreviations are so common that we use them without thinking. Some people feel that they make it easier to talk, read and write. Others don’t think so. They think these shortened words or phrases can cause confusion (困惑). Both sides have an argument to make. FOR Ever since its invention, human language has been changing. Imagine what life would be like if it had stayed the same. We’d still be speaking like Shakespeare, saying “thine” instead of just “yours”! Some abbreviations, like GIF, have become so common that it would sound strange to say them in full. Abbreviations can help to make text and speech shorter and easier to understand. For example, typing “BRB” is a lot faster than writing “I’ll be right back,” isn’t it? AGAINST If abbreviations aren’t used properly, they can slow you down instead of speeding things up. For example, if a word or phrase isn’t written out in full the first time it appears in an article, readers may have to waste time looking it up. Shortened words and phrases can also make people feel left out. It can be embarrassing to ask what “TGIF” means. Languages have kept changing, but not every change is good. Saying “TY” just doesn’t feel as polite as saying “thank you,” does it? In such cases, abbreviations can lead to misunderstandings (误解) and even harm friendships. 66．What does NASA stand for? 67．Why does the writer mention “BRB” and “I’ll be right back”? 68．According to the “AGAINST” part, what bad results can abbreviations cause? List two. 69．Which abbreviation is used as an example of being impolite? 70．What’s your opinion on using abbreviations?（不超过15个词） 六、书面表达（满分25分） 71．俗话说：“民以食为天。”中国的饮食文化历史悠久、举世闻名。假如你是学生会主席李华，今年暑假有一批外国朋友要到你的学校参加文化交流夏令营。作为学生代表，请你以“When in China, Eat as the Chinese Eat”为题，向对方介绍去中国家庭聚餐时的餐桌礼仪。 提示：（1）他们需要注意的礼仪；   （2）他们要注意这些礼仪的原因。 注意：（1）内容涵盖提示中的所有要点，全文连贯、通顺；   （2）文中不得出现真实姓名和地名；   （3）词数80个左右（标题和开头已给出，不计入总词数）。 When in China, Eat as the Chinese Eat Food is the first necessity of the people. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 试卷第1页，共3页 试卷第1页，共3页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
