①I don’t know what first made me interested in becoming a teacher. It is just something I had always wanted to do. When I was 5 years old, I wanted to become a teacher. I used to take all my toys, line them up and teach them. I had a white board that I would write on.
②When I was in high school, I was lucky to join in a teaching activity. During this, we worked with the students in Grade 9 and helped them prepare for high school. Besides, we helped them with homework if they needed it, and taught them how to deal with hard situations. To them, we were teachers. It was a special experience (经历) in my life, and I’d never forget the feeling I got when one student of mine who was shy broke out of her comfort zone (舒适区). The next two years when I saw her in the school, she’d always smile and say hello. This made me feel great because I felt like I had made a difference.
③At the same time, this experience also helped me a lot. I broke out of my comfort zone because I was now the teacher. Being put in a situation like this pushed me to be more outgoing and patient. Working with them still helped me to better myself and improve my teaching skills.
④Teaching is something that I have always wanted to do, and I know that I always will. The joy of helping people and knowing that I have made a difference in someone’s life will make everything worthwhile (有价值的) to me.

①Major Snow, the 21st solar term (节气) of the year, falls on Dec 6 this year. It means the beginning of midwinter. During Major Snow, the temperature drops greatly and there may be more snowy days.
②The arrival of snow adds a delightful touch to the cold days. The snow in North China may go on a whole day, breaking tree branches and blocking the road while snow doesn’t happen a lot, but just a little, brings great fun in the South.
③The natural scenery is “ice blockading for hundred smiles and snow flying through thousands miles”, “From hill to hill no bird in flight; From path to path no man in sight”. In the South, the snowflakes fly around and the world turns white.
④There’s a Chinese saying: “A fall of snow gives promise of a fruitful year.” Most farmers welcome snow because snow can protect crops from cold frosts and keep the fields warm. Even if it melts (融化), it also can provide enough water for the crops in the spring.
⑤Snow season is also good for skiing and skating. In northern China, there are many places for natural snow and ice. For example, Heilongjiang and Jilin provinces often already have big snow in November. People can also go to the frozen lakes to play ice sports. But people in the south will stay indoors to enjoy the winter activities. People in Chongqing like to have potted lamb soup or stewed lamb soup with their families and friends. People in Nanjing like to stew the lamb with yams or wolfberries to make it more delicious.

A. By giving examples. B. By introducing activities.
C. By showing pictures. D. By using sayings and poems.
42. Which of the following sentences has the word “while” with the same meaning as that in “The snow in North China may go on a whole day, breaking tree branches and blocking the road while snow doesn’t happen a lot, but just a little, brings great fun in the South.” in Paragraph 2?
A. While I was watching TV, my mother came in.
B. Many birds live in Zhalong all year around, while some go there only for a short stay.
C. Tigers can run fast only for a short while.
D. While he was tired, he went on working.

B. A fall of snow can be dangerous to a fruitful year.
C. A fall of snow can help farmers harvest much fruit.
D. A fall of snow can prevent farmers from a good harvest.
44. What can we know about Major Snow from the passage?
A. During Major Snow, the temperature falls greatly.
B. Major Snow is the most beautiful term among all.
C. People in the north like to stay indoors to enjoy the winter activities.
D. All the farmers like snow because it can offer enough water to the crops.
45. The following paragraph can go best after _______.
During Major Snow, it is drier and colder, so people should drink more water. At the same time, don’t drink cold water after exercise.
A. Paragraph 2 B. Paragraph 3 C. Paragraph 4 D. Paragraph 5
第Ⅱ部分 非选择题(共65分)
五、任务型阅读(共10小题;每小题1.5分,共15分)
阅读下面的短文,并根据所读内容在文章后图表中的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词,每个空格只填一个单词。
When you think of mystery boxes (盲盒), secret toys packed in small boxes may come to mind. But recently, many people in China have fallen in love with “leftover (剩菜) mystery boxes” at local stores. In each box is food close to the expiry (到期) date.
“We pack products such as milk, bread, cake, and sandwiches in mystery boxes, and people can buy them for 50% of the original price.” Wu Tian, who works at a convenience store (便利店) in Beijing, told China Daily.
For example, a mystery box sold at a bakery in Nanjing costs 15.9 yuan. Inside, there are three kinds of bread that should cost 45 yuan, China Youth Daily reported.
Some leftover-mystery-box mini programs on WeChat help sell the food. They “save money and prevent food waste. I enjoy it a lot,” Zhang Kai who often buys leftover mystery boxes, told China Daily.
In 2021, the total amount (量) of food waste in China reached 160 million tons. A person may waste about 93grams of food each meal, China Food Newspaper reported.
The leftover mystery boxes may help with this problem. According to the mini program Xishi Magic Bag, more than 27,000 pieces of bread were sold within a month, which would have otherwise been thrown away.
There are still some problems. Some food made in the store, such as bread, doesn’t have any labels (标签), according to China Consumer News. So people may not know what time it was made, and the food may not be safe to eat.
Although (虽然) the idea of leftover mystery boxes is creative, more rules need to be set to make it successful, wrote China Youth Daily.

【详解】句意:孩子们可以从种植像胡萝卜这样的蔬菜开始。它们很容易种植和收获。

5. People find the movie Captain Marvel II quite boring. ________, the songs are wonderful.
A. However B. Otherwise C. Instead D. Moreover
【答案】A
【解析】
【详解】句意:人们觉得电影《惊奇队长2》很无聊。然而歌曲很棒。
考查副词辨析。However然而;Otherwise否则;Instead相反,代替;Moreover而且。根据语境,可知前后文是转折关系,电影无聊,然而歌好听,因此用副词however。故选A。
6. — What’s your plan for the winter holiday?
— I _________ go back to my hometown with my parents. They haven’t decided yet.
A. must B. may C. need D. should
【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】句意:——你的寒假计划是什么?——我可以和父母一起回老家。他们还没有决定。
考查情态动词。must必须,一定;may可能,也许;need需要;should应该。根据回答后半句“they haven’t decided yet”可知是不确定的回答,表示“我可能和父母一起回老家。”对于不确定的推测英语中用may,故选B。
【点睛】英语中情态动词的推测用法要注意。记住口诀:can不肯,may不问,must肯定不否问。做题时首先看题干是肯定,否定还是疑问,排除一部分答案,然后再根据句意理解判断用哪个。

That’s this season’s cheer!”
Which season is the poem about?

【解析】
【导语】本文讲述了作者一次特殊的火车回家经历。火车故障延误,陌生人之间开始交流互助,作者收获了难忘的经历。
【11题详解】
句意:二十分钟后,我下车。
前文描述的是“我”上火车后的常规行为,后文说 “二十分钟后”,再结合下文的 “回家路程”,说明火车到站了,我要下车。 get off 表示 “下车”,符合语境;get on“上车”,get away“离开、逃脱”,get up“起床”,都不符合。
【12题详解】
句意:事实上,我的回家旅程没什么特别的。
后文说“但上周二很不一样”,形成转折,说明平时的回家路程 “没什么特别的”。 nothing special是固定搭配,意为 “没什么特别的”,符合语境;anything用于否定或疑问句,something表示 “有某事”,everything表示 “所有事”,都不匹配。
【13题详解】
句意:我正看着窗外,这时火车突然停了。
这是一个常用句型:过去进行时+when+一般过去时,表示 “正在做某事时,突然发生了另一件事”。 when 表示 “就在这时”,符合语境;because表原因,before/after表先后顺序,都不合适。
【14题详解】
句意:我发现人们开始有点生气。
火车突然停下,五分钟没动静,乘客的情绪会从平静转为不满、生气。 angry表示 “生气的”,符合逻辑;sorry抱歉的、excited兴奋的、glad高兴的,都不符合此时的场景。
【15题详解】
句意:公告传来了。
这里指 “广播传来了”,added表示补充说明,前文无相关广播故不适用;advised意为建议,和发布通知的语境不符;sounded作系动词后接形容词、作实义动词表发声,均不能直接接引语,语法错误;came可表示消息、通知传来,贴合句意。
【16题详解】
句意:我们不得不再等两个小时。
广播说明前方有火车故障,因此本车需要“再等两个小时”。 wait for表示 “等待”,符合语境;ask for请求、fight for为……斗争、look for寻找,都不匹配。
【17题详解】
句意:但很快令人惊讶的事情发生了。
前文说大家都叹气,后文转折说“陌生人开始互相聊天”,这是一件 “令人惊讶的事”。 surprising表示 “令人惊讶的”,符合语境;serious严肃的、unlucky不幸的、dangerous危险的,都不符合。
【18题详解】
句意:起初,大家只是抱怨。
just表示 “只是、仅仅”,强调一开始的行为只有抱怨,符合语境。 even甚至,表递进;hardly几乎不,表否定;already已经,表完成;都不符合。
19题详解】
句意:我也开始和一个男人谈论关于工作的事。
talk to sb. about sth.是固定搭配,意为 “和某人谈论某事”。with表 “和… 一起”,但talk with sb. 后接宾语时一般不加about,此处语境是 “聊关于工作的事”,about更准确。
【20题详解】
句意:我碰巧遇到一位女士。
happen to do sth.是固定搭配,意为 “碰巧做某事”。happen to meet表示 “偶然遇见”,符合语境。
【21题详解】
句意:当享受音乐时。
前文提到 “一个年轻女人拿出了小提琴,周围的人跟着一起唱”,说明大家正在享受音乐。music表示 “音乐”,符合语境;video视频、film电影、program节目,都和 “小提琴 + 唱歌” 的场景无关。
【22题详解】
句意:那位女士立即投入行动。
jump into action是固定搭配,意为 “立即行动起来”,符合紧急情况的语境。
【23题详解】
句意:我们把她当英雄一样欢迎。
她是医生,听到呼救后去帮忙,回来后大家把她当作英雄来欢迎。welcomed表示 “欢迎、拥戴”,符合语境;painted画画、touched触摸、invited邀请,都不合适。
【24题详解】
句意:我们开始再次移动。
前文说火车停了两个小时,故障解决后,火车应该“重新开动”。moving 表示“移动、行驶”,符合语境;walking走路、talking聊天、meeting见面都不匹配。
【25题详解】
句意:但没有一个我的新“朋友”在那里。
前文说周二遇到了很多“新朋友”,周三再坐火车时,他们 “一个都不在”。 none of 表示 “(三者及以上中)一个也没有”,符合语境;some一些、all所有、any任何,都和转折语气矛盾。

【解析】
【导语】本文是四则俱乐部招生广告应用文,分别介绍四家俱乐部的招生年龄、开放时间、收费、特色、联系方式与地址。
【26题详解】
根据表格信息,Smart Kids Club、Body-building Club和Piano Club的开放时间均明确标注为“Sat. & Sun.”。只有Global English Club注明“This club only opens from Monday to Friday, no classes on weekends.”,开放时间为工作日(周一至周五)。
【27题详解】
周末开放的俱乐部有Smart Kids Club(9:00-10:30)、Body-building Club(16:00-18:00)和Piano Club(16:00-18:00)。由于 Body-building Club 和Piano Club的时间冲突(均为下午 4 点到 6 点),无法同时参加。因此,可行的组合只有两种:① Smart Kids Club + Body-building Club;② Smart Kids Club + Piano Club。所以Lucy有2种选择。
【28题详解】
根据Global English Club中的信息“All native teachers from the UK and the USA所有外教来自英美”,可知该俱乐部可以与母语为英语的人交流。其联系电话为“Tel: 0816-2878806”。
【29题详解】
根据Smart Kids Club的信息“100 yuan each week每周每人 100 元”。双胞胎姐妹是两个人,因此每周需要支付的费用为100×2 = 200元。
【30题详解】
通读全文可知,文章列出了四个俱乐部的招生对象、开放时间、费用、联系电话和地址等信息,目的是吸引人们报名参加,具有明显的广告特征。因此,这类信息通常出现在广告(advertisement)中。

①I don’t know what first made me interested in becoming a teacher. It is just something I had always wanted to do. When I was 5 years old, I wanted to become a teacher. I used to take all my toys, line them up and teach them. I had a white board that I would write on.
②When I was in high school, I was lucky to join in a teaching activity. During this, we worked with the students in Grade 9 and helped them prepare for high school. Besides, we helped them with homework if they needed it, and taught them how to deal with hard situations. To them, we were teachers. It was a special experience (经历) in my life, and I’d never forget the feeling I got when one student of mine who was shy broke out of her comfort zone (舒适区). The next two years when I saw her in the school, she’d always smile and say hello. This made me feel great because I felt like I had made a difference.
③At the same time, this experience also helped me a lot. I broke out of my comfort zone because I was now the teacher. Being put in a situation like this pushed me to be more outgoing and patient. Working with them still helped me to better myself and improve my teaching skills.
④Teaching is something that I have always wanted to do, and I know that I always will. The joy of helping people and knowing that I have made a difference in someone’s life will make everything worthwhile (有价值的) to me.

①Major Snow, the 21st solar term (节气) of the year, falls on Dec 6 this year. It means the beginning of midwinter. During Major Snow, the temperature drops greatly and there may be more snowy days.
②The arrival of snow adds a delightful touch to the cold days. The snow in North China may go on a whole day, breaking tree branches and blocking the road while snow doesn’t happen a lot, but just a little, brings great fun in the South.
③The natural scenery is “ice blockading for hundred smiles and snow flying through thousands miles”, “From hill to hill no bird in flight; From path to path no man in sight”. In the South, the snowflakes fly around and the world turns white.
④There’s a Chinese saying: “A fall of snow gives promise of a fruitful year.” Most farmers welcome snow because snow can protect crops from cold frosts and keep the fields warm. Even if it melts (融化), it also can provide enough water for the crops in the spring.
⑤Snow season is also good for skiing and skating. In northern China, there are many places for natural snow and ice. For example, Heilongjiang and Jilin provinces often already have big snow in November. People can also go to the frozen lakes to play ice sports. But people in the south will stay indoors to enjoy the winter activities. People in Chongqing like to have potted lamb soup or stewed lamb soup with their families and friends. People in Nanjing like to stew the lamb with yams or wolfberries to make it more delicious.
41. How does the writer describe the beauty of snow?
A. By giving examples. B. By introducing activities.
C. By showing pictures. D. By using sayings and poems.
42. Which of the following sentences has the word “while” with the same meaning as that in “The snow in North China may go on a whole day, breaking tree branches and blocking the road while snow doesn’t happen a lot, but just a little, brings great fun in the South.” in Paragraph 2?

D All the farmers like snow because it can offer enough water to the crops.

【导语】本文是一篇说明文,主要介绍了中国二十四节气中的大雪节气,包括它的时间、气候特点、雪景之美、相关农谚以及南北方人们在这一节气里的活动与习俗。
【41题详解】
根据文章第③段引用的诗句“From hill to hill no bird in flight; From path to path no man in sight.”以及第④段的谚语“A fall of snow gives promise of a fruitful year.”可知,作者通过引用诗句和谚语来描写雪的美。
【42题详解】
原文中“while”用于对比北方和南方下雪的不同情况,意为“而,然而”。选项A中“while”意为“当……时候”;选项B中“while”用于对比两种不同的情况,意为“而,然而”;选项C中“while”意为“一会儿”;选项D中“while”意为“虽然,尽管”。因此,与原文中“while”用法相同的是选项B。
【43题详解】
根据第④段“Most farmers welcome snow because snow can protect crops from cold frosts and keep the fields warm. Even if it melts, it also can provide enough water for the crops in the spring.”可知,这句谚语的意思是一场雪能带来丰收年。
【44题详解】
根据文章第①段“During Major Snow, the temperature drops greatly and there may be more snowy days.”可知,大雪节气期间气温会大幅下降,A选项表述正确;B选项“Major Snow is the most beautiful term among all”文中未提及;根据第⑤段“But people in the south will stay indoors to enjoy the winter activities.”可知,是南方人而非北方人会待在室内享受冬日活动,C选项表述错误;根据第④段“Most farmers welcome snow”可知,是“大多数农民”而非“所有农民”喜欢雪,D选项表述错误。
【45题详解】
题干段落介绍了大雪节气期间天气干燥寒冷,人们应该多喝水、运动后不喝冷水的健康注意事项。文章第⑤段主要讲述了大雪时节南北方人们的冬日活动与饮食习俗,题干内容是与大雪节气相关的生活健康建议,与第⑤段的生活类话题衔接最自然。
第Ⅱ部分 非选择题(共65分)
五、任务型阅读(共10小题;每小题1.5分,共15分)
阅读下面短文,并根据所读内容在文章后图表中的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词,每个空格只填一个单词。
When you think of mystery boxes (盲盒), secret toys packed in small boxes may come to mind. But recently, many people in China have fallen in love with “leftover (剩菜) mystery boxes” at local stores. In each box is food close to the expiry (到期) date.
“We pack products such as milk, bread, cake, and sandwiches in mystery boxes, and people can buy them for 50% of the original price.” Wu Tian, who works at a convenience store (便利店) in Beijing, told China Daily.
For example, a mystery box sold at a bakery in Nanjing costs 15.9 yuan. Inside, there are three kinds of bread that should cost 45 yuan, China Youth Daily reported.
Some leftover-mystery-box mini programs on WeChat help sell the food. They “save money and prevent food waste. I enjoy it a lot,” Zhang Kai who often buys leftover mystery boxes, told China Daily.
In 2021, the total amount (量) of food waste in China reached 160 million tons. A person may waste about 93grams of food each meal, China Food Newspaper reported.
The leftover mystery boxes may help with this problem. According to the mini program Xishi Magic Bag, more than 27,000 pieces of bread were sold within a month, which would have otherwise been thrown away.
There are still some problems. Some food made in the store, such as bread, doesn’t have any labels (标签), according to China Consumer News. So people may not know what time it was made, and the food may not be safe to eat.
Although (虽然) the idea of leftover mystery boxes is creative, more rules need to be set to make it successful, wrote China Youth Daily.

____62____ time went on, I was surprised that listening to something interesting is the secret to language learning.

Now I find myself enjoying my English class much more. I spend my free time ____64____ (learn) new words and more grammar so that I can have a better understanding of English movies.

【解析】
【导语】 本文主要讲述了作者从讨厌英语、害怕课堂,到通过观看英文电影《玩具总动员》爱上英语的转变过程,也找到了学习英语的乐趣与方法。
【56题详解】
句意:每一节课都像一场糟糕的梦。此处为a/an+形容词+名词单数的结构,空格后形容词“awful”以元音音素开头,用an表示泛指。
【57题详解】
句意:因为发音不好,我也不敢提问。“ask questions”是固定搭配,表示 “提问题”,此处用复数表示泛指多个问题。
【58题详解】
句意:我只能躲在课本后面,一言不发。分析全文可知,文章讲述的是过去的事情,时态为一般过去时,“hide”的过去式是变化hid。
【59题详解】
句意:我很快就迷上了它!此处为固定搭配“be crazy about”表示 “对…… 着迷、热衷于……”。
【60题详解】
句意:虽然演员们说的每一句话我都没法全部听懂,但他们的肢体语言和面部表情帮我理解了意思。空格前动词“help”后面要跟人称代词的宾格形式,I的宾格是me。
【61题详解】
句意:通过听电影里的台词,我的发音也变好了。此处表示“我的发音变好了”,暗含和过去的对比,要用形容词“good”的比较级为better。
【62题详解】
句意:随着时间的推移,我惊讶地发现,听有趣的内容竟然是语言学习的秘诀。此处为固定搭配“as time went on”表示 “随着时间的推移”,句首单词首字母需大写。
【63题详解】
句意:一开始,我并不理解这些句子的意思。此处为固定搭配“in the beginning”表示 “起初、一开始”。
【64题详解】
句意:空闲时间里,我会背新单词、学更多语法,这样就能更好地看懂英文电影了。此处为“spend time (in) doing sth. ”表示 “花费时间做某事”,“learn”要变为动名词learning。
【65题详解】
句意:我真的相信,学英语就像开启一场超酷的旅行,我已经准备好迎接前方这段激动人心的旅程了!此处修饰空格后的动词“believe”,要用副词形式,“real”的副词是really。
七、词汇运用(本题共10小题,每小题1分,共10分)
66. I hear you _________(catch) a cold yesterday. Drink water and have a good rest. You’ ll be fine soon.
【答案】
caught
【解析】
【详解】句意:我听说你昨天感冒了。多喝水,好好休息,你很快就会好起来的。“I hear”后是宾语从句,省略了that,根据“yesterday”可知事情发生在昨天,从句应用一般过去时。固定短语“catch a cold”表示“感冒”,此处需使用动词catch的过去式。故填caught。
67. To protect the environment, _________ (tour) should take paper bags or cloth bags when travelling.
【答案】
tourists
【解析】
【详解】句意:为了保护环境,游客在旅行时应该携带纸袋或布袋。根据“take paper bags or cloth bags when travelling”可知,此处需要表示“游客”的名词作主语,tour对应的名词形式为tourist,这里表示泛指,应用复数形式tourists。
68. There is an old saying: ________ (cloud) mornings give way to clear evenings.
【答案】Cloudy
【解析】
【分析】
【详解】句意:有句老话:多云的早晨让位于晴朗的傍晚。cloud云;设空处修饰名词 mornings,需用形容词cloudy“多云的/阴天的”作定语;位于句首需大写首字母,故填Cloudy。
69. What a bad day! I had a high fever and kept _________ (cough).
【答案】
coughing
【解析】
【详解】句意:多么糟糕的一天!我发高烧还一直咳嗽。原句中“kept”是关键词,它是keep的过去式,后面要接动名词形式构成固定搭配keep doing sth,表示“一直做某事”,故填coughing。
70. We should brush our teeth at _________ (little) twice a day. Don’t be lazy.
【答案】
least
【解析】
【详解】句意:我们一天至少应该刷两次牙,别偷懒。固定搭配“at least”,它是little的最高级相关短语,意思是“至少”。
71. —Tom, it’s 9 a. m. now. Do you have enough time to finish your DIY job?
—Don’t worry! I _________ (complete) it before 10 a.m.
【答案】
will have completed
【解析】
【详解】句意:——汤姆,现在是上午9点,你有足够的时间完成你的手工活吗?——别担心!我会在上午10点前完成它。根据语境,动作是在将来的时间点前完成的,要用将来完成时,结构为will have completed。
72. Animals are _______________(human)good friends.It’s our duty to protect them.
【答案】humans’
【解析】
【详解】句意:动物是人类的好朋友,保护它们是我们的责任。名词good friends“好朋友”前要使用名词所有格形式,指人类的好朋友,human的所有格形式要加's;human“人类”,是可数名词,此处要用复数形式表示泛指。故填humans’。
73. Wearing red can help you make a ________ (decide) quickly.
【答案】decision
【解析】
【详解】句意:穿红色衣服可以帮助你快速做出决定。根据“Wearing red can help you make a…quickly.”可知,不定冠词a修饰单数名词,decide的名词为decision表示“决定”;make a decision做决定,故填decision。
74. They will ask hunters _______________ (not kill) wild animals and won’t buy fur coats any more.
【答案】not to kill
【解析】
【详解】句意:他们会要求猎人不要捕杀野生动物,也不会再购买皮衣。ask sb. not to do sth.要求某人不要做某事。故填not to kill。
75. It is very hot in my hometown in summer, with temperatures in the ________ (thirty).
【答案】thirties
【解析】
【详解】句意:我的家乡夏天是非常炎热的,气温三十多度。根据句意及所给单词可知,此处指气温在三十度左右,是一个大概的数值,“in the +表示整十的基数词的复数形式”表示不具体的数目,这里应用thirty的复数形式thirties。故填thirties。
