A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，讲述库尔特因浪费资源被禁闭，通过时间机器看到未来资源枯竭惨状，最终悔悟并承诺不再浪费能源的故事。 【31题详解】 句意：他的老师生气了。 上文提到“Kurt was in detention”及后文老师批评的话语，说明老师很生气。angry意为“生气的”，体现了老师批评学生浪费资源时的愤怒情绪。 【32题详解】 句意：难道你不关心环境吗？ 前文提到的水龙头、灯、纸巾等浪费行为，都是破坏环境的行为，此处是老师的质问，概括性的环境比单一资源更符合语境，environment意为“环境”。其他选项只是环境的一部分，不够全面。 【33题详解】 句意：然后老师离开了。 上文“Sit there and think about it.”以及后文库尔特独自环顾教室并发现盒子，说明此处表示老师离开了，left意为“离开”，与库尔特独自行动的情境相符。 【34题详解】 句意：他按了一下。 下文多次提到“pushed the button”，因此此处是按按钮，pushed意为“按”。其他选项与操作按钮的动作不符。 【35题详解】 句意：库尔特看到一个悲伤的女人。 后文提到“She was dirty (脏的) because there was no clean...”，未来世界资源匮乏，女人脏兮兮的处境，因此她是悲伤的，sad意为“悲伤的”。其他选项无法体现未来世界的悲惨状况。 【36题详解】 句意：她很脏，因为没有干净的水。 句中“dirty”以及“clean”，提示此处指没有干净的水，对应前文库尔特浪费水的行为，water意为“水”符合语境。其他选项与清洁与否无直接逻辑联系。 【37题详解】 句意：因为没有电，所以很黑。 句中“use a candle”和“dark”，说明因为没有电才用蜡烛，electricity意为“电”，对应库尔特浪费电的行为。其他选项不是导致黑暗的直接原因。 【38题详解】 句意：突然，老师进来了。 库尔特刚回到教室，老师就进来了，表示动作发生得突然，suddenly意为“突然地”。其他选项无法体现时间转换后的突兀感。故选 C。 【39题详解】 句意：你对你的所作所为感到抱歉吗？ 上文老师的质问及库尔特承诺“I’ll never waste... again”，说明此处是问是否后悔抱歉，sorry意为“抱歉的”。其他选项不符合对话逻辑。 【40题详解】 句意：我再也不会浪费能源了。 前文浪费的水、电、纸等资源都属于能源，此处是总括性的承诺，energy涵盖所有浪费的资源，符合语境。 三、阅读理解(本大题共15小题，每小题2分，共30分) A Sometimes I really doubt whether there is love between my parents. They don’t act in the romantic ways that I read in books or I see on TV. In their opinion, “I love you” is too luxurious(奢侈的) for them to say. Sending flowers to each other on Valentine’s Day is even more out of the question. And my father has a bad temper. One day, my mother was sewing a quilt(缝被子). I silently sat down beside her and looked at her. “Is there love between you and Dad?” I asked her in a very low voice. My mother stopped her work and raised her head with surprise in her eyes. She didn’t answer immediately. I was very worried because I thought I had hurt her. But at last I heard my mother say these words. “Susan,” she said, “look at this thread(线). Sometimes it appears, but most of it disappears in the quilt. The thread really makes the quilt strong and durable(耐用的) . If life is a quilt, then love should be a thread. It can hardly be seen anywhere or anytime, but it’s really there. Love is inside.” I listened carefully but I couldn’t understand her until the next spring. At that time, my father suddenly got sick seriously. My mother had to stay with him in the hospital for a month. When they returned from the hospital, they both looked very pale. After they were back, every day in the morning and dusk, my mother helped my father walk slowly on the country road. My father had never been so gentle. It seemed that they were the most harmonious(和谐的) couple. The sun gently glistened(闪耀) through the leaves. All of these made up the most beautiful picture in the world. The doctor said my father would recover in two months. But after two months he still couldn’t walk by himself. All of us were worried about him. “Dad, how are you feeling now?” I asked him one day. “Susan, don’t worry about me,” he said gently. “To tell you the truth, I just like walking with your mom.” Reading his eyes, I know he loves my mother deeply. Once I thought love meant flowers, gifts and sweet kisses. But from this experience, I understand that love is just a thread in the quilt of our life. Love is inside, making life strong and warm. 41. Why does the author sometimes doubt whether there is real love between the parents? A. Because they are very busy earning money. B. Because they often act in the romantic ways. C. Because her father is easy to lose his temper. D. Because they often say “I love you”. 42. Which of the following is similar to the underlined phrase “out of the question” in paragraph 1? A. Possible. B. Impossible. C. Necessary. D. Unnecessary. 43. What can we learn from her mother’s answer about love? A. Love should be seen anywhere. B. Love should be seen anytime. C. Love should be outside. D. Love really exists everywhere and anytime. 44. What made her father change so greatly? A. The real love from her mother. B. The thread of the quilt. C. The beautiful scenery of the country road. D. All the other members of the family. 45. What’s the main idea of the passage? A. We should understand our parents. B. Love is inside, making life strong and warm. C. Love is really very important to anyone. D. Love should be outside, and can be seen everywhere. 【答案】41. C 42. B 43. D 44. A 45. B 【解析】 【分析】本文通过作者父母之间的爱告诉我们一个道理：爱就在内心，使生活变得坚固而温暖。 【41题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“Sometimes I really doubt whether there is love between my parents. ...And my father has a bad temper.”可知是因为作者的父亲脾气很坏，故选C。 【42题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第一段“ In their opinion, “I love you” is too luxurious(奢侈的) for them to say. Sending flowers to each other on Valentine’s Day is even more...”可知在他们看来，“我爱你”对于他们来说太奢侈了，可推测互相送花就更不太可能了。Possible可能的；Impossible不可能的；Necessary有必要的；Unnecessary.不必要的。Impossible符合，故选B。 【43题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段“ If life is a quilt, then love should be a thread. It can hardly be seen anywhere or anytime, but it’s really there.”可知妈妈认为爱真的随时随地都存在。故选D。 【44题详解】 细节理解题。根据第六段“every day in the morning and dusk, my mother helped my father walk slowly on the country road. My father had never been so gentle. It seemed that they were the most harmonious(和谐的) couple”可知父亲有如此大的改变是因为妈妈真实的爱，故选A。 【45题详解】 主旨大意题。根据最后一段“ Love is inside, making life strong and warm.”可知文章主要是告诉我们一个道理：爱就在内心，使生活变得坚固而温暖。故选B。 B Scientists study the world and learn about things using a process called scientific method. By asking important questions and searching for the answers, they are likely to make amazing discoveries. Sometimes, a scientist is unable to answer his or her own questions, but if he or she has taken good notes, another scientist who comes along later may be able to use new knowledge to answer them. When you use this scientific method to conduct an experiment, you start by observing(观察) something that interests you. Based on your observations, you make a hypothesis. This is using what you know to make a smart guess about what you think could happen or what may be happening. Then, you are ready to begin your experiment. Throughout your experiment, you take down notes, which are called experimental data. You should be constantly making observations during this process. You may make discoveries that cause you to improve your experiment as you go. Finally, you conclude your experiment and begin to look over your notes to decide what it all means. Based on what you have learned, you make a final statement about whether your hypothesis was correct or not. You have to have reasons and evidence to support what you are saying. Learning to use the scientific method can be difficult, but it is rewarding(值得做的). Because all the steps are organized, the results are more reliable. When you provide your observations as evidence to support what you are saying, your ideas are more likely to be accepted. 46. According to the article, how can a scientist discover an amazing thing? A. By conducting experiments. B. By reading more books about science. C. By taking notes in great detail during experiments. D. By asking important questions and trying to answer them. 47. The underlined word “hypothesis” in paragraph 2 most probably means “________”. A. 结论 B. 假设 C. 怀疑 D. 过程 48. If you want to support your opinion, you will need ________. ① reasons ② scientists who are in favor of you ③ some books about what you are studying ④ your observations during the experiment A. ①② B. ③④ C. ①④ D. ②③ 49. Which of the following statements is true, according to the article? A. It is worth learning to use the scientific method. B. Scientists are usually able to answer all of their questions. C. There is no need to make a hypothesis after an observation. D. You opinion will be accepted as long as it is presented with evidence. 50. By writing this article, the author mainly wanted to ________. A. introduce the scientific method to readers B. teach readers how to conduct an experiment C. tell readers the importance of observing things D. encourage readers to become more interested in science 【答案】46. D 47. B 48. C 49. A 50. A 【解析】 【分析】本文主要讲述了用科学方法的方法研究世界和学习事物。 【46题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“By asking important questions and searching for the answers, they are likely to make amazing discoveries”可知是通过提出重要问题并尝试回答它们。故选D。 【47题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第二段“This is using what you know to make a smart guess about what you think could happen or what may be happening.”可知这是用你所知道的来对你认为可能发生的事情或可能正在发生的事情做出的猜测。由此推测hypothesis意为“假设”，故选B。 【48题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“You have to have reasons and evidence to support what you are saying.”以及“When you provide your observations as evidence to support what you are saying, your ideas are more likely to be accepted.”可知需要有原因和证据来支持你所说的话。故选C。 【49题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“Learning to use the scientific method can be difficult, but it is rewarding(值得做的)”可知学习使用科学的方法是值得的。故选A。 【50题详解】 推理判断题。本文主要介绍了如何使用科学方法。故选A。 C Visiting outer space is just a dream for most people even if they are not an astronaut. But this dream might come true soon. It is expected that China will send its first group of travelers to space in 2025, although it will be quite expensive — 2 to 3 million yuan for each ticket. Right now, there are two ways to travel to space: orbital (轨道的) travel and suborbital (亚轨道的) travel. China thinks highly of suborbital space travel and has done a lot of research on it. Suborbital travel is the best choice for most people because it’s not hard on the body. A suborbital spaceship flies up to around 100 kilometers above the Earth and then quickly returns. It doesn’t go as high as an orbital spaceship, and the flight is much shorter, so it costs a lot less. Orbital space travel flies into outer space and moves around the Earth. Travelers have to go much farther, and the journey is more difficult and dangerous. That also makes the price much higher. For example, in 2022, tickets for an orbital flight, including around a week’s stay at the International Space Station, were sold for around 55 million US dollars each person. The US began its space research in the 1960s. China started the research ten years later, but its future as a leader in space has already taken form. During the next ten years, China is expected to catch up with the United States. For now, China will continue to work hard to develop its suborbital space travel. As one scientist said, “The key to China’s space research and development depends on technology.” 51. According to the passage, we learn that ________. A. suborbital space travel is the best choice for most tourists B. China likes to develop orbital space travel better C. suborbital space travel costs 55 thousand dollars D. people with health problems should choose orbital space travel 52. What do the underlined words “taken form” in Paragraph 4 mean? A. Taken time. B. Taken care. C. Taken place. D. Taken shape. 53. China began its space research in the ________. A. 1960s B. 1970s C. 1980s D. 1990s 54. The passage tells us that ________. A. everyone can now see Earth from space B. companies in space tourism make little money C. technology is the key to China’s space research and development D.

They don’t act in the romantic ways that I read in books or I see on TV. In their opinion, “I love you” is too luxurious(奢侈的) for them to say. Sending flowers to each other on Valentine’s Day is even more out of the question. And my father has a bad temper. One day, my mother was sewing a quilt(缝被子). I silently sat down beside her and looked at her. “Is there love between you and Dad?” I asked her in a very low voice. My mother stopped her work and raised her head with surprise in her eyes. She didn’t answer immediately. I was very worried because I thought I had hurt her. But at last I heard my mother say these words. “Susan,” she said, “look at this thread(线). Sometimes it appears, but most of it disappears in the quilt. The thread really makes the quilt strong and durable(耐用的) . If life is a quilt, then love should be a thread. It can hardly be seen anywhere or anytime, but it’s really there. Love is inside.” I listened carefully but I couldn’t understand her until the next spring. At that time, my father suddenly got sick seriously. My mother had to stay with him in the hospital for a month. When they returned from the hospital, they both looked very pale. After they were back, every day in the morning and dusk, my mother helped my father walk slowly on the country road. My father had never been so gentle. It seemed that they were the most harmonious(和谐的) couple. The sun gently glistened(闪耀) through the leaves. All of these made up the most beautiful picture in the world. The doctor said my father would recover in two months. But after two months he still couldn’t walk by himself. All of us were worried about him. “Dad, how are you feeling now?” I asked him one day. “Susan, don’t worry about me,” he said gently. “To tell you the truth, I just like walking with your mom.” Reading his eyes, I know he loves my mother deeply. Once I thought love meant flowers, gifts and sweet kisses. But from this experience, I understand that love is just a thread in the quilt of our life. Love is inside, making life strong and warm. 41. Why does the author sometimes doubt whether there is real love between the parents? A. Because they are very busy earning money. B. Because they often act in the romantic ways. C. Because her father is easy to lose his temper. D. Because they often say “I love you”. 42. Which of the following is similar to the underlined phrase “out of the question” in paragraph 1? A. Possible. B. Impossible. C. Necessary. D. Unnecessary. 43. What can we learn from her mother’s answer about love? A. Love should be seen anywhere. B. Love should be seen anytime. C. Love should be outside. D. Love really exists everywhere and anytime. 44. What made her father change so greatly? A. The real love from her mother. B. The thread of the quilt. C. The beautiful scenery of the country road. D. All the other members of the family. 45. What’s the main idea of the passage? A. We should understand our parents. B. Love is inside, making life strong and warm. C. Love is really very important to anyone. D. Love should be outside, and can be seen everywhere. B Scientists study the world and learn about things using a process called scientific method. By asking important questions and searching for the answers, they are likely to make amazing discoveries. Sometimes, a scientist is unable to answer his or her own questions, but if he or she has taken good notes, another scientist who comes along later may be able to use new knowledge to answer them. When you use this scientific method to conduct an experiment, you start by observing(观察) something that interests you. Based on your observations, you make a hypothesis. This is using what you know to make a smart guess about what you think could happen or what may be happening. Then, you are ready to begin your experiment. Throughout your experiment, you take down notes, which are called experimental data. You should be constantly making observations during this process. You may make discoveries that cause you to improve your experiment as you go. Finally, you conclude your experiment and begin to look over your notes to decide what it all means. Based on what you have learned, you make a final statement about whether your hypothesis was correct or not. You have to have reasons and evidence to support what you are saying. Learning to use the scientific method can be difficult, but it is rewarding(值得做的). Because all the steps are organized, the results are more reliable. When you provide your observations as evidence to support what you are saying, your ideas are more likely to be accepted. 46. According to the article, how can a scientist discover an amazing thing? A. By conducting experiments. B. By reading more books about science. C. By taking notes in great detail during experiments. D. By asking important questions and trying to answer them. 47. The underlined word “hypothesis” in paragraph 2 most probably means “________”. A. 结论 B. 假设 C. 怀疑 D. 过程 48. If you want to support your opinion, you will need ________. ① reasons ② scientists who are in favor of you ③ some books about what you are studying ④ your observations during the experiment A. ①② B. ③④ C. ①④ D. ②③ 49. Which of the following statements is true, according to the article? A. It is worth learning to use the scientific method. B. Scientists are usually able to answer all of their questions. C. There is no need to make a hypothesis after an observation. D. You opinion will be accepted as long as it is presented with evidence. 50. By writing this article, the author mainly wanted to ________. A. introduce the scientific method to readers B. teach readers how to conduct an experiment C. tell readers the importance of observing things D. encourage readers to become more interested in science C Visiting outer space is just a dream for most people even if they are not an astronaut. But this dream might come true soon. It is expected that China will send its first group of travelers to space in 2025, although it will be quite expensive — 2 to 3 million yuan for each ticket. Right now, there are two ways to travel to space: orbital (轨道的) travel and suborbital (亚轨道的) travel. China thinks highly of suborbital space travel and has done a lot of research on it. Suborbital travel is the best choice for most people because it’s not hard on the body. A suborbital spaceship flies up to around 100 kilometers above the Earth and then quickly returns. It doesn’t go as high as an orbital spaceship, and the flight is much shorter, so it costs a lot less. Orbital space travel flies into outer space and moves around the Earth. Travelers have to go much farther, and the journey is more difficult and dangerous. That also makes the price much higher. For example, in 2022, tickets for an orbital flight, including around a week’s stay at the International Space Station, were sold for around 55 million US dollars each person. The US began its space research in the 1960s. China started the research ten years later, but its future as a leader in space has already taken form. During the next ten years, China is expected to catch up with the United States. For now, China will continue to work hard to develop its suborbital space travel. As one scientist said, “The key to China’s space research and development depends on technology.” 51. According to the passage, we learn that ________. A. suborbital space travel is the best choice for most tourists B. China likes to develop orbital space travel better C. suborbital space travel costs 55 thousand dollars D. people with health problems should choose orbital space travel 52. What do the underlined words “taken form” in Paragraph 4 mean? A. Taken time. B. Taken care. C. Taken place. D. Taken shape. 53. China began its space research in the ________. A. 1960s B. 1970s C. 1980s D. 1990s 54. The passage tells us that ________. A. everyone can now see Earth from space B. companies in space tourism make little money C. technology is the key to China’s space research and development D.
