【导语】本文讲述Johnny除夕夜购物时,见笼中鸟受苦,说服父亲买下并放飞,体现了关爱生命的精神。
【16题详解】
句意:挂着彩色的灯笼,市场看起来很美。
根据“New Year’s Eve”及市场装饰习俗,可知挂灯笼符合语境。叶子和风筝不符合节日装饰逻辑,故选lanterns“灯笼”。
【17题详解】
句意:突然,Johnny看到一家店里的笼子。
根据叙事逻辑,购物过程中“突然”发现异常。Actually“实际上”和Usually“通常”无法体现情节转折,故选Suddenly“突然”。
【18题详解】
句意:为那些鸟感到难过,Johnny走向那个人。
根据固定搭配feel sorry for sb.,可知表示“为……感到难过”。其他介词无此搭配用法,故选for。
【19题详解】
句意:让任何人失去自由是不公平的。
根据“lose freedom”,剥夺自由在道德上是unfair“不公平”的。Unusual“不寻常”和unhealthy“不健康”语意不通。
【20题详解】
句意:我也需要养活我的家人。
根据卖家需赚钱的背景,可知是为了“养活”家人。故选feed“养活”。
【21题详解】
句意:他最终意识到那些鸟的自由更重要。
根据Johnny放弃买东西救鸟的行为,可知自由更“重要”。Comfortable“舒适”和 popular“流行”不合逻辑。故选important“重要”。
【22题详解】
句意:但这些鸟最终只会待在这个小笼子里。
根据语境,如果不救,它们的“结局”是待在笼子里。其他选项语意不符。故选end up“最终成为”。
【23题详解】
句意:当 Johnny打开笼门时,所有鸟迅速飞出。
根据动作同时性,“当”打开门时鸟飞出。其他选项逻辑不通,故选When“当……时”。
【24题详解】
句意:看到那幕,Johnny非常高兴。
根据Johnny努力救鸟成功,心情应该是“高兴”的。Surprised“惊喜”和patient“耐心” 不符合情感逻辑。故选glad“高兴”。
【25题详解】
句意:这是我收到过的最好的新年礼物。
根据父亲出钱成全他的善举,这对Johnny来说是新年“礼物”。其他选项不符合语境。故选present“礼物”。

The Feynman Technique (费曼学习法) was developed by Nobel Prize-winning physicist Richard Feynman. It’s a study method that helps students learn by teaching others.
The Feynman Technique has been one of the most effective study methods for many years. For one thing, it helps students really understand something instead of just memorizing information. Plus, unlike traditional study methods like reading textbooks or reviewing notes, it pushes students to be more actively involved in the learning process.
If you want to use the Feynman Technique to study better, follow these steps. To begin with, choose a topic you want to learn, including subtopics. If not, you’ll end up jumping between topics without developing a deeper understanding of any of them.
The second step is the heart of the Feynman Technique: explaining the topic simply enough to be understood by a sixth-grade student. This requires you to help the child understand by using the simplest and clearest language. This step helps divide indigestible topics into their most basic parts.
Next, review your explanation and try to find any areas where you felt that you couldn’t explain the topic simply. When possible, it can be very helpful to get advice from someone whose understanding is similar to that of a sixth-grader.
The fourth step is to improve your explanation using the information collected from the third step. Finally, repeat the steps. The Feynman Technique works best with repetition, and that is why going through all the prior (先前的) steps just once is usually not enough to fully understand the topic.
Once you’re confident you’ve learned the topic, it’s time to give yourself a prize. Perhaps, like me, you enjoy a nice cup of coffee.
36. Why is the Feynman Technique better than traditional study methods?
A. Because it saves students’ study time.
B. Because it allows students to study in groups.
C. Because it encourages students to do active learning.
D. Because it helps students memorize more information
37. What does the underlined word “indigestible” mean?
A. Big. B. Small. C. Simple. D. Difficult.
38. According to the third step, who can you get suggestions from?
A. Your parents. B. Your teachers. C. A 12-year-old girl. D. An expert in learning.
39. Which of the following is the CORRECT order for the Feynman Technique?
① Pick a topic to learn. ② Improve the weak areas. ③ Explain it in the simplest words.
④ Repeat the steps until you really learn it. ⑤ Find the “imperfect part” of your explanation.
A. ①→③→⑤→②→④ B. ①→⑤→②→③→④
C. ⑤→②→①→③→④ D. ③→⑤→②→④→①
40. Jane is a 14-year-old middle school student. She wants to improve her study by using the Feynman Technique. During the process, which may be CORRECT?
A. Jane can’t decide which subject she wants to study.
B. Jane asks others not to disturb (打扰) her because she wants to learn alone.
C. Jane finishes her study content and gives herself a piece of chocolate cake as a reward
D. Jane asks her brother in senior school to teach her.
【答案】36. C 37. D 38. C 39. A 40. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文,主要介绍了费曼学习法(The Feynman Technique)的定义、优势、具体步骤及其核心——通过“教别人”来实现深度学习,并强调重复练习的重要性。
【36题详解】
第二段明确指出:“unlike traditional study methods like reading textbooks or reviewing notes, it pushes students to be more actively involved in the learning process”,说明费曼学习法优于传统方法的原因在于它推动学生更积极地参与学习过程,即主动学习。
【37题详解】
第四段提到:“This step helps divide indigestible topics into their most basic parts”,即将某类话题分解为最基本的部分。能被“分解为基本部分”的话题,必然是难以消化的、复杂的,因此“indigestible”意为“困难的”。
【38题详解】
第五段指出:“it can be very helpful to get advice from someone whose understanding is similar to that of a sixth-grader”,即可以从理解水平相当于六年级学生的人那里获取建议。六年级学生大约11-12岁。
【39题详解】
根据文章步骤顺序:第三段①选主题→第四段③用最简单的语言解释→第五段⑤找出解释不清的地方→第六段②改进薄弱环节→第六段末④重复步骤。正确顺序为①→③→⑤→②→④。
【40题详解】
最后一段提到“Once you’re confident you’ve learned the topic, it’s time to give yourself a prize. Perhaps, like me, you enjoy a nice cup of coffee.”学完后可以给自己一个奖励,如喝杯咖啡,吃巧克力蛋糕作为奖励符合文意。
D
Come to learn Swedish (瑞典语). It seems challenging, but it could be easier if you are a good English speaker. The two languages have a lot more in common than you think.
The Swedish alphabet (字母表) is almost the same as the English alphabet, but has three more letters: Å, Ä and Ö. Although some letters like O and Ö look alike, they are actually different. Take the Swedish words “lov” and “löv” as an example. The word “lov” can refer to holidays, while “löv” translates to “leaves”.
Many words are close in Swedish and English. “Bok” in Swedish is only a one-letter change to “book”; “äpple” is an easy change to “apple”, and “man” and “piano” are the same in both languages. However, there are special suffixes (后缀), such as “-en” and “-t”, to stand for “the” in English. For example, “boken” in Swedish means “the book” in English.
Another similarity is the word order. It’s often possible to directly translate sentences between the two languages. One big difference is that Swedish always puts the verb in the second place of a sentence. Although in English sentences, words like “always” or “hardly” often appear in the second place, Swedish is very strict about the verb-second rule and will put them after the verb.
There are many reasons that make Swedish hard, but with your English learning experience, you’ll find it easier.
41. Which sign below is written in Swedish?
A. B. C. D.
42. How does the writer develop his idea in Paragraph 2?
A. By explaining the results. B. By raising questions.
C. By comparing differences. D. By listing numbers.
43. According to the passage, what is the meaning of the Swedish word “pianot”?
A. Piano. B. Pianos. C. A piano. D. The piano.
44. To say “I always eat apples” in Swedish, which of the following shows the RIGHT way to place the verb “äter (eat)”?
A. B. C. D.
45. Why does the writer write the passage?
A. To introduce the history of Swedish.
B. To show Swedish is not so difficult to learn.
C. To tell the writer’s own Swedish learning experience.
D. To explain the difference between English and Swedish.
【答案】41. B 42. C 43. D 44. C 45. B
【解析】
【导语】本文主要介绍了瑞典语和英语的相似点与不同点,说明英语学习者学习瑞典语会相对容易。
【41题详解】
根据第二段“The Swedish alphabet (字母表) is almost the same as the English alphabet, but has three more letters: Å, Ä and Ö”及“Take the Swedish words ‘lov’ and ‘löv’ as an example.”可知,瑞典语字母表和英语相近,且含有Å、Ä、Ö这三个特殊字母,只有选项B中的文字“Fordonstrafik förbjuden”符合瑞典语的拼写特征。
【42题详解】
根据第二段“Take the Swedish words ‘lov’ and ‘löv’ as an example. The word ‘lov’ can refer to holidays while ‘löv’ translates to ‘leaves’.”可知,作者通过对比两个拼写相近但含义不同的瑞典语单词来展开说明,运用了对比差异的写作手法。
【43题详解】
根据第三段“ However, there are special suffixes (后缀), such as ‘-en’ and ‘-t’, to stand for ‘the’ in English. For example, ‘boken’ in Swedish means ‘the book’ in English.”及“‘man’ and ‘piano’ are the same in both languages.”可知,瑞典语中名词后加后缀“-t”表示“the+名词”,“piano”在两种语言中拼写相同,因此“pianot”意为“the piano”。
【44题详解】
根据第四段“One big difference is that Swedish always puts the verb in the second place of a sentence. Although in English sentences, words like ‘always’ or ‘hardly’ often appear in the second place, Swedish is very strict about the verb-second rule and will put them after the verb.”可知,瑞典语严格遵循动词位于第二位的规则,频率副词需放在动词之后。“I always eat apples”的瑞典语语序应为:主语Jag(I)→动词äter(eat)→频率副词alltid(always)→宾语äpplen(apples),只有选项C的动词位置符合这一规则。
【45题详解】
根据第一段“It seems challenging, but it could be easier if you are a good English speaker.”及最后一段“There are many reasons that make Swedish hard, but with your English learning experience, you’ll find it easier.”可知,全文旨在说明对英语学习者来说,瑞典语并没有那么难学。

阅读下面短文,从短文后所给的五个选项中选出能填入短文空白处的最佳选项,使短文通顺、连贯,意思完整。
Every year, with the Spring Festival on its way. It’s time to start thinking about everyone’s favorite topic: gifts More specifically (确切地), ____46____
This means that each place has different gift habits due to its culture. I have found gift-giving to be quite different in China from my home country.
One example is the time of when to open a gift. The person who gives a gift is called the “gifter”. The person who gets a gift is called the “giftee”. In the US, ____47____ The gifter wants to see the giftee’s reaction of excitement and joy. In China, however, it’s more polite to thank the gifter for the gift but open it later in the giftee’s home.
____48____. Although people in the US might give money to their children, it is usually done very secretly with the money put in a card and not discussed out loud. In China, it is much more open. For example, kids get lucky money from parents during the Spring Festival.
Finally, the value of the gift can play a big role in China. ____49____. An expensive gift in the US is usually greeted with great excitement. But in China, it can make the giftee feel embarrassed because of a sense of having to return the favor in the future to the gifter.
As the old saying goes, “When in Rome, do as the Romans do.” ____50____. So, next time you give a gift to somebody, remember that culture and meaning are part of every action we take.
A. This is different from that in the US
B. it’s the giving of gifts and the culture behind it
C. It’s necessary to know the different traditions about giving gifts
D. the gifter usually wants to see the giftee open the present at once
E. Also, I find the difference is the openness and directness of giving money
【答案】46. B 47. D 48. E 49. A 50. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文,主要介绍了中美两国在送礼文化上的差异,包括拆礼物的时间、给钱的方式以及礼物价值的观念等,并提醒人们在送礼时应尊重不同文化的习俗。
【46题详解】
第一段提到“everyone’s favorite topic: gifts. More specifically”,后文提到“This means that each place has different gift habits due to its culture.”,选项B“it’s the giving of gifts and the culture behind it”能够承接上文,从“礼物”进一步聚焦到“送礼背后的文化”,与后文“不同地方有不同送礼习惯”形成自然衔接。
【47题详解】
第三段提到“In the US”,后文提到“The gifter wants to see the giftee’s reaction of excitement and joy.”,选项D“the gifter usually wants to see the giftee open the present at once”能够承接上文,说明美国送礼者希望收礼者立刻拆开礼物,与后文“想看到对方兴奋的反应”逻辑一致,同时与下一句“In China, however, it’s more polite to...open it later”形成对比。
【48题详解】
第四段提到“Although people in the US might give money to their children, it is usually done very secretly...”,选项E“Also, I find the difference is the openness and directness of giving money”能够承接上文,用“Also”引出另一个中美差异——给钱的方式,与后文美国“秘密给钱”和中国“公开给压岁钱”的对比相呼应。
【49题详解】
第五段提到“the value of the gift can play a big role in China”,后文提到“An expensive gift in the US is usually greeted with great excitement. But in China, it can make the giftee feel embarrassed...”,选项A“This is different from that in the US”能够承接上文,指出中国对礼物价值的态度与美国不同,引出后文两国在礼物价值观念上的对比。
【50题详解】
第六段引用谚语“When in Rome, do as the Romans do.”,后文提到“So, next time you give a gift to somebody, remember that culture and meaning are part of every action we take.”,选项C“It’s necessary to know the different traditions about giving gifts”能够承接上文,总结出“了解不同送礼传统很有必要”的结论,与后文的建议形成逻辑呼应。
第二部分(非选择题)
Ⅴ. 情景交际 根据情景提示,完成下列各题。(每小题2分,共10分)
51. A: You look worried. ___________________?
B: I forget lots of new words.
【答案】
What’s wrong/What’s the matter
【解析】
【详解】A注意到B看起来很担忧,需要用一句关心的问句来询问发生了什么。B的回答“I forget lots of new words”说明B在表达具体的困扰,因此A的问句应是询问对方怎么了。常用表达为“What’s wrong?”或“What’s the matter?”,两者均为口语中最自然的关心用语,语法正确,语气恰当,与B的回答逻辑完全吻合。
52. A: I am a very slow reader. What should I do?
B: ________________________
【答案】
You should read more. (答案不唯一)
【解析】

53. A: ______________________?
B: By working with a group. I think it helps.

54. A: What do you like best about the Spring Festival?
B: _______________________.
【答案】
I like getting lucky money best
【解析】
【详解】A问的是“春节你最喜欢什么”,B需要用第一人称回答自己最喜欢的春节元素。回答应包含“I like...best”的结构,并给出一个具体的春节活动或习俗。示例答案“I like getting lucky money best”(我最喜欢收压岁钱)语法正确,内容贴合春节主题,完全符合题意。
55. 中秋时节,你感叹月亮又大又圆,可以这么表达:
“__________________________!”
【答案】
How big and round the moon is
【解析】

【解析】
【导语】本文主要讲述了立冬,是二十四节气中代表冬季起始的重要节点。它不仅意味着气候转寒、万物收藏,更承载着中国人代代相传的习俗与仪式感。从古礼迎冬到一碗暖乎乎的饺子,从南方的“养冬”食补到北方的冬泳庆冬,这些藏在节气里的传统,藏着人们对生活的热忱与对自然的敬畏。
【61题详解】
句意:这意味着冬天即将到来,秋天收获的庄稼要储存起来。这是用现在进行时表示将来的用法,is coming意思是“即将到来”,用来表示冬天马上就要到了,符合语境。
【62题详解】
句意:传统上人们是如何为更寒冷的日子做准备的?固定搭配prepare for...表示“为……做准备”,这里指为更冷的日子做准备,所以用介词for符合语境。
【63题详解】
句意:在古代,国王会带领他的官员在立冬这一天举行“迎冬”仪式。这里需要形容词性物主代词修饰名词officials(官员),指代国王的官员,所以he要变成his。
【64题详解】
句意:据说在东汉(25—220年)时期,被称为“医圣”的张仲景在立冬时发明了一种食物。固定句型It is said that...意思是“据说……”,是英语里表达传闻的常用句式,所以said符合语境。
【65题详解】
句意:它能帮助人们抵御寒冷,让身体变得更暖和。much后面需要接形容词的比较级,hot的比较级是hotter,表示“(让身体)更暖和”,和之前的冷形成对比。
【66题详解】
句意:如果你立冬不吃饺子,耳朵就会被冻伤。这里是条件状语从句,意思是“如果立冬不吃饺子,耳朵就会被冻伤”,所以用If引导条件状语从句。
【67题详解】
句意:“养冬”是中国南方地区的一项传统。这里需要形容词修饰名词part,south的形容词形式是southern,表示“南方的”,the southern part of China就是“中国的南方地区”。
【68题详解】
句意:这些食物通常会和中草药一起炖煮。这里需要副词修饰动词stewed(炖),usual的副词形式是usually,表示“通常(用中草药炖)”。
【69题详解】
句意:在哈尔滨,许多游泳爱好者会横渡松花江来庆祝冬天的到来。many后面要接可数名词的复数形式,fan(爱好者)的复数是fans,表示“很多游泳爱好者”。
【70题详解】
句意:立冬是享受丰收的最佳时节,所以中国人会在这一天做很多事来表达感谢与祝福。形容词最高级best前面必须加定冠词the,the best time表示“最好的时节”。

Grace knew she needed to talk to her teacher, Mrs. Wilson. She was having trouble with her schoolwork, and it was mostly because she kept forgetting things. After class, Grace walked into Mrs. Wilson’s office.
“I know I performed poorly on the exam today,” Grace said. “I could have done a lot better.”
“Why did this happen?” Mrs. Wilson asked. “I forgot we would have an exam today. That often happens because I have so many things to do, and it is really hard for me to keep everything organized.”
“What other things?” Mrs. Wilson wanted to know. “Well, I take piano lessons. I also write articles for the school newspaper. And I want to have fun with my friends too.”
“It sounds like you’re busy, but that doesn’t mean you can’t get organized. You need to manage your time better,” Mrs. Wilson said. Grace sighed (叹气) and didn’t know how to do that.
Mrs. Wilson said, “You can begin getting organized by getting a calendar. If you get a large calendar, you can write down everything you need to do on it. Then every day, you can check your calendar to see what’s on your schedule. If you know you have an exam, you can study hard.

The Feynman Technique (费曼学习法) was developed by Nobel Prize-winning physicist Richard Feynman. It’s a study method that helps students learn by teaching others.
The Feynman Technique has been one of the most effective study methods for many years. For one thing, it helps students really understand something instead of just memorizing information. Plus, unlike traditional study methods like reading textbooks or reviewing notes, it pushes students to be more actively involved in the learning process.
If you want to use the Feynman Technique to study better, follow these steps. To begin with, choose a topic you want to learn, including subtopics. If not, you’ll end up jumping between topics without developing a deeper understanding of any of them.
The second step is the heart of the Feynman Technique: explaining the topic simply enough to be understood by a sixth-grade student. This requires you to help the child understand by using the simplest and clearest language. This step helps divide indigestible topics into their most basic parts.
Next, review your explanation and try to find any areas where you felt that you couldn’t explain the topic simply. When possible, it can be very helpful to get advice from someone whose understanding is similar to that of a sixth-grader.
The fourth step is to improve your explanation using the information collected from the third step. Finally, repeat the steps. The Feynman Technique works best with repetition, and that is why going through all the prior (先前的) steps just once is usually not enough to fully understand the topic.
Once you’re confident you’ve learned the topic, it’s time to give yourself a prize. Perhaps, like me, you enjoy a nice cup of coffee.
36. Why is the Feynman Technique better than traditional study methods?
A. Because it saves students’ study time.
B. Because it allows students to study in groups.
C. Because it encourages students to do active learning.
D. Because it helps students memorize more information
37. What does the underlined word “indigestible” mean?
A. Big. B. Small. C. Simple. D. Difficult.
38. According to the third step, who can you get suggestions from?
A. Your parents. B. Your teachers. C. A 12-year-old girl. D. An expert in learning.
39. Which of the following is the CORRECT order for the Feynman Technique?
① Pick a topic to learn. ② Improve the weak areas. ③ Explain it in the simplest words.
④ Repeat the steps until you really learn it. ⑤ Find the “imperfect part” of your explanation.
A. ①→③→⑤→②→④ B. ①→⑤→②→③→④
C. ⑤→②→①→③→④ D. ③→⑤→②→④→①

Come to learn Swedish (瑞典语). It seems challenging, but it could be easier if you are a good English speaker. The two languages have a lot more in common than you think.
The Swedish alphabet (字母表) is almost the same as the English alphabet, but has three more letters: Å, Ä and Ö. Although some letters like O and Ö look alike, they are actually different. Take the Swedish words “lov” and “löv” as an example. The word “lov” can refer to holidays, while “löv” translates to “leaves”.
Many words are close in Swedish and English. “Bok” in Swedish is only a one-letter change to “book”; “äpple” is an easy change to “apple”, and “man” and “piano” are the same in both languages. However, there are special suffixes (后缀), such as “-en” and “-t”, to stand for “the” in English. For example, “boken” in Swedish means “the book” in English.
Another similarity is the word order. It’s often possible to directly translate sentences between the two languages. One big difference is that Swedish always puts the verb in the second place of a sentence. Although in English sentences, words like “always” or “hardly” often appear in the second place, Swedish is very strict about the verb-second rule and will put them after the verb.
There are many reasons that make Swedish hard, but with your English learning experience, you’ll find it easier.
41. Which sign below is written in Swedish?
A. B. C. D.
42. How does the writer develop his idea in Paragraph 2?
A. By explaining the results. B. By raising questions.
C. By comparing differences. D. By listing numbers.
43. According to the passage, what is the meaning of the Swedish word “pianot”?
A. Piano. B. Pianos. C. A piano. D. The piano.
44. To say “I always eat apples” in Swedish, which of the following shows the RIGHT way to place the verb “äter (eat)”?
A. B. C. D.
45. Why does the writer write the passage?
A. To introduce the history of Swedish.
B. To show Swedish is not so difficult to learn.
C. To tell the writer’s own Swedish learning experience.
D. To explain the difference between English and Swedish.

This means that each place has different gift habits due to its culture. I have found gift-giving to be quite different in China from my home country.
One example is the time of when to open a gift. The person who gives a gift is called the “gifter”. The person who gets a gift is called the “giftee”.

____48____. Although people in the US might give money to their children, it is usually done very secretly with the money put in a card and not discussed out loud. In China, it is much more open. For example, kids get lucky money from parents during the Spring Festival.
