( 仅限医疗保健专业学生，请携带学生证!)”可知，解剖博物馆之旅特别之处在于它只针对特定专业的学生。故选B。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。根据Clothes Exchange中的“Free Entry if you donate clothes in advance or on the day ! (如果你提前或当天捐赠衣服，免费入场!)”可知，如果您在服装交换中心捐赠2件衬衫和带走2件外套，您将不需要支付任何费用。故选D。 【3题详解】 细节理解题。根据Shiny Stocking中的“Free Entry!

They are doing one thing — picking up rubbish. They are from the “Beautiful Travel”, an organization founded by Shi Ning. In 2014, when he traveled alone from Dali to Lhasa, seeing amounts of rubbish along the road, he became shocked. Later, Shi Ning and his two companions discussed possible solutions to environmental problems. In2015, they launched a series of campaigns (运动) , starting from picking up rubbish along the highway in Xizang areas. Since then, more than 45 tons of deserted plastic bottles have been recycled thanks to the “Beautiful Travel”. If you piled these plastic bottles up, they would be about 25 times as high as Qomolangma. However, it is difficult for rubbish transporters (运输车) to run at high altitudes during rainy and snowy days, with the closure (关闭) of roads. They established rubbish pickup sites with the local government. Volunteers go to villages, towns and mountainous areas to collect rubbish and when the rubbish is piled up to 500 kg, trucks are sent to collect it. They also call on tourists and local residents to stop littering to protect the local biodiversity. The campaign involves about 30, 000tourists all the way. Volunteers sort out 20% recyclable rubbish and recycle it according to the local price. The remaining 80% of non-recyclable rubbish will be handed over by volunteers and staff to the municipal (市政的) waste removal department for further recycling. The T-shirts worn by the volunteers were made using recycled materials from the rubbish. Blue, representing the blue sky and our planet, is specially chosen for this organization. “It’s like planting the seeds of civilization in people’s hearts, and I believe that one day, they will come out, forming a beautiful landscape, ” Shi Ning said. 4. What inspired Shi Ning to found the “Beautiful Travel”? A. What he saw along the way. B. How he felt about Xizang. C. What the local people did. D. How his companions thought of Dali. 5. What might challenge the rubbish transporters according to the passage? A. The road conditions. B. The awful weather. C. The large amount of rubbish. D. The pressure from the government. 6. How do the volunteers deal with rubbish collected in the mountains? A. By selling it. B. By reusing it. C. By handing it over to a related department. D. By dividing it into different types. 7. Which of the following can be the best title for this passage? A. The Cleaners of Our Nature B. The Protection of Local Biodiversity C. The Beautiful Travel of Volunteers D. The Significance of Recycling Rubbish 【答案】4. A 5. B 6. D 7. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章通过叙述“美丽旅行”组织及其成员在青藏高原进行垃圾清理活动的事迹，展现了他们为保护当地环境和生物多样性所做的努力。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第一段“In 2014, when he traveled alone from Dali to Lhasa, seeing amounts of rubbish along the road, he became shocked. Later, Shi Ning and his two companions discussed possible solutions to environmental problems. In2015, they launched a series of campaigns (运动) , starting from picking up rubbish along the highway in Xizang areas.(2014年，当他独自从大理前往拉萨旅行时，看到沿途大量的垃圾，他感到十分震惊。后来，石宁和他的两位同伴商讨解决环境问题的可行办法。2015年，他们发起了一系列活动，从在西藏地区的公路沿线捡垃圾开始。)”可知，石宁独自从大理前往拉萨旅行时，看到沿途大量的垃圾，感到震惊，之后才和同伴商讨解决环境问题并发起相关活动，成立“美丽行”组织。所以是他沿途所看到的景象激发他创立该组织。故选A。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第四段“However, it is difficult for rubbish transporters (运输车) to run at high altitudes during rainy and snowy days, with the closure (关闭) of roads.(然而，在雨雪天气，由于道路封闭，垃圾运输车很难在高海拔地区行驶。)”可知，糟糕的天气会影响垃圾的运输。故选B。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章倒数第二段“Volunteers sort out 20% recyclable rubbish and recycle it according to the local price. The remaining 80% of non-recyclable rubbish will be handed over by volunteers and staff to the municipal (市政的) waste removal department for further recycling.(志愿者会分拣出20%的可回收垃圾，并按照当地价格进行回收。剩下80%的不可回收垃圾，将由志愿者和工作人员交给市政垃圾清运部门做进一步回收处理。)”可知，志愿者们会将收集到的垃圾进行分类，20%可回收的按当地价格回收，80%不可回收的交给市政垃圾处理部门进一步处理，整体体现了对垃圾进行分类处理。故选D。 【7题详解】 主旨大意题。根据文章第一段“On the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, there is a group of people regularly moving through the snowy mountains, lakes and pastures (牧场) . They are doing one thing—picking up rubbish.(在青藏高原，有一群人定期穿梭于雪山、湖泊和牧场之间。他们在做一件事——捡垃圾。)”以及全文内容可知，文章讲述的是“美丽行”组织的志愿者们在青藏高原捡垃圾，致力于清洁大自然。选项A“The Cleaners of Our Nature(大自然的清洁者)”能够很好地概括志愿者们的行为，突出主题。故选A。 C Being a vegetarian (素食者) in a meat-eating culture isn’t always easy. I always get asked, “Why? Since when? How come?” and “How can you stand not eating meat?” For me, being a vegetarian isn’t strange; it’s just who and what I am. I’m sick and tired of people judging (评价) me based on a personal choice that has nothing to do with them. Honestly, I could understand if my decision had an influence on their lives, but the thing is it doesn’t, so they should just get over it. If anything, more people should be vegetarians. It’s a fact that a vegetarian has a lower risk of cancer, heart attacks, and high blood pressure. Being a vegetarian can help people live a longer life because they are eating healthily and not taking in the fat found in non-vegetarian diets. While all diets need to be balanced, it is possible to get protein, minerals and nutrients from vegetable sources. Vegetables, milk and eggs have all the requirements your body needs to survive. If you are creative, a vegetarian diet is far from boring. As vegetables come in various types and tastes, they can be prepared and eaten in countless ways. There are so many vegetarian cookbooks, which shows this is a fact. I find it funny when people say vegetarians do not get enough energy from their diet. My answer is to mention Dave Scott, the first person to win the IRONMAN World Championship six times! Yes, surprise, surprise, at the time he was a vegetarian. Vegetarianism is better for the planet because the ecological footprint of vegetarians is smaller. So next time you want to judge someone's personal choice to go veggie, remember they have their reasons, not the least of which are concerns for animals and the state of the planet. 8. How does the author feel about others’ opinions on his diet? A. Curious. B. Annoyed. C. Appreciative. D. Unconcerned. 9. What does paragraph 3 mainly tell us about a vegetarian diet? A. Its advantages. B. Its sources. C. Its varieties. D. Its popularity. 10. Why does the author mention Dave Scott in paragraph 5? A. To show what a vegetarian diet is like. B. To present a study on vegetarian diets. C. To suggest a vegetarian diet is healthy. D. To explore why some athletes are vegetarians. 11. What is the best title for the text? A. My Road to Becoming a Vegetarian B. Mistaken Beliefs about Vegetarianism C. Vegetarianism: A Common Phenomenon D. Vegetarianism: More Than a Personal Choice 【答案】8. B 9. A 10. C 11. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇议论文。文章主要讲述了作者坚持素食主义的原因及素食主义的好处。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“For me, being a vegetarian isn’t strange; it’s just who and what I am. I’m sick and tired of people judging (评价) me based on a personal choice that has nothing to do with them. Honestly, I could understand if my decision had an influence on their lives, but the thing is it doesn’t, so they should just get over it.(对我来说，吃素并不奇怪；只是我是谁，我是什么。我厌倦了人们根据与他们无关的个人选择来评判我。说实话，如果我的决定影响了他们的生活，我能理解，但事实是没有，所以他们应该忘掉这件事)”可知，作者厌倦了人们根据与他们无关的个人选择来评判自己，由此可推知，作者对别人的看法感到不满和生气。故选B。 【9题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第三段内容，尤其是“It’s a fact that a vegetarian has a lower risk of cancer, heart attacks, and high blood pressure. Being a vegetarian can help people live a longer life because they are eating healthily and not taking in the fat found in non-vegetarian diets.(事实上，素食者患癌症、心脏病和高血压的风险较低。成为素食者可以帮助人们活得更久，因为他们吃得健康，不会摄入非素食者饮食中的脂肪)”可知，本段主要描述了素食饮食对健康的益处。因此，这段主要讲述了素食饮食的优点。故选A。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据第五段“I find it funny when people say vegetarians do not get enough energy from their diet. My answer is to mention Dave Scott, the first person to win the IRONMAN World Championship six times! Yes, surprise, surprise, at the time he was a vegetarian.(当人们说素食者不能从饮食中获得足够的能量时，我觉得很有趣。我的回答是提到Dave Scott，他是第一个六次赢得铁人世界锦标赛的人！是的，惊喜，惊喜，那时候他还是个素食主义者)”可知，本段提到Dave Scott是为了举例说明素食者可以在体能和健康方面也表现优异，从而支持素食健康这一观点。故选C。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，结合最后一段“Vegetarianism is better for the planet because the ecological footprint of vegetarians is smaller. So next time you want to judge someone's personal choice to go veggie, remember they have their reasons, not the least of which are concerns for animals and the state of the planet.(素食对地球更好，因为素食者的生态足迹更小。所以，下次你想评判某人选择素食的个人选择时，请记住他们有他们的理由，其中最重要的是对动物和地球状况的关注)”可知，文章不仅强调素食和个人选择，还涉及健康、生态和动物保护，因此标题应体现其超越个人选择的层面，D项“素食主义：不仅仅是个人选择”最适合作为标题。故选D。 D In the UK, there are about 12 million people suffering with hearing loss, and approximately 6.7 million could benefit from hearing aids. However, only about 2 million people use them. People with hearing loss may feel hearing aids are meant only for older people. They can feel a sense of embarrassment, ageing and lack of confidence when wearing them. Besides, some people have no confidence in hearing aids and believe they will not help, or will even make their hearing worse. Individuals sometimes believe they will be dependent on their hearing aids, thus choosing not to use them out of desire for independence. Therefore, people with hearing loss may turn to coping mechanisms such as excessively(过度地)turning the volume up on their TVs. In the UK, patients with hearing loss can obtain hearing aids free of charge through National Health Service(NHS). However, the choice of style, manufacturer and level of technology may be limited and can also involve lengthy waiting lists. There are a greater number of hearing aid options available in the private sector but these can sometimes be expensive, which can be a prohibitive factor for individuals. There are some negative perspectives about hearing aids, such as the appearance. Many people have the idea that hearing aids are huge and noticeable. However, there are many different types of hearing aids such as invisible ones in ear canals. The hearing aid selection is discussed with each individual at their hearing assessment, and the correct hearing aids are selected according to their level of hearing loss. There have been other advancements in technology such as rechargeable hearing aids. There is now wireless connectivity in many hearing aids, which enables hearing aids to be connected to mobile devices, tablets and televisions, allowing direct audio streaming into hearing aids. Undoubtedly, wearing hearing aids is very beneficial for well-being, allowing individuals to interact with others and hear better. All of the advancements in technology in the future mean the functionality and comfort of hearing aids will greatly increase, considerably improving the quality of life for more people with hearing loss. 12. What is paragraph 2 mainly about? A. What people with hearing loss should do. B. How older people respond to hearing aids. C. Why some people avoid using hearing aids. D.

They can feel a sense of embarrassment, ageing and lack of confidence when wearing them. Besides, some people have no confidence in hearing aids and believe they will not help, or will even make their hearing worse. Individuals sometimes believe they will be dependent on their hearing aids, thus choosing not to use them out of desire for independence. (有听力损失的人可能觉得助听器只适合老年人使用。他们在佩戴助听器时可能会感到尴尬、觉得自己变老了，并且缺乏自信。此外，有些人对助听器没有信心，认为它们不会起到帮助作用，甚至会使听力变得更差。有些人则认为他们会依赖助听器，因此出于对独立的渴望而选择不使用它们。)”可知，本段主要讲述了为什么有些人避免使用助听器。故选C。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。由文章第三段中“In the UK, patients with hearing loss can obtain hearing aids free of charge through National Health Service(NHS). However, the choice of style, manufacturer and level of technology may be limited and can also involve lengthy waiting lists. (在英国，有听力损失的患者可以通过国民保健服务（NHS）免费获得助听器。然而，助听器的款式、制造商和技术水平的选择可能有限，而且可能需要等待很长时间。)”可知，通过国民保健服务(NHS)获得助听器可能需要等待很长时间。故选B。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。由文章第四段中“The hearing aid selection is discussed with each individual at their hearing assessment, and the correct hearing aids are selected according to their level of hearing loss. (在听力评估时，会与每个人讨论助听器的选择，并根据他们的听力损失程度选择合适的助听器。)”可知，在选择助听器的过程中，主要考虑的是个人的具体听力损失。故选C。 【15题详解】 细节理解题。由文章最后一段中“All of the advancements in technology in the future mean the functionality and comfort of hearing aids will greatly increase, considerably improving the quality of life for more people with hearing loss. (未来技术的所有进步都意味着助听器的功能和舒适度将大大提高，从而显著改善更多听力损失者的生活质量。)”可知，未来助听器将会为用户提供高质量和更好的服务。故选D。 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 The Dragon Boat Festival is marked by a variety of cultural practices and foods that vary by region. ____16____ These not only honor Qu Yuan but also serve as a display of teamwork and community spirit.

Having moved from Shanghai just three months ago, he felt the party was his first real chance to make friends. His mother had spent the entire morning in their tiny apartment kitchen carefully preparing a gift: homemade mooncakes wrapped in red paper decorated with dragon patterns. “In China, red brings good luck and the dragon represents strength,” she said proudly. “These mooncakes carry our family’s blessings.” At the party, colorful balloons danced along the ceiling (天花板), and the living room was filled with the latest pop songs. Li Wei noticed everyone’s gifts piled (堆放) on a table, and he placed his gift on the top, whose traditional appearance stood out among the gifts. He looked around and found that most of the faces were unfamiliar. So he sat down and listened to the music, waiting excitedly for that big moment — opening the gifts. Soon it came. In the cheers of her friends, Emma walked over to the table. Her eyes were immediately drawn to Li Wei’s uniquely wrapped gift. However, when she opened it, silence fell as she stared at the unfamiliar pastries (糕点). “What…are these?” she asked hesitantly. A boy leaned over and laughed loudly, “Looks like play-dough (橡皮泥)!” Heat rushed to Li Wei’s face as he stammered (结结巴巴地说), “They’re traditional Chinese mooncakes ...” However, his voice was swallowed (淹没) by the laughter that followed. Someone even whispered, “This might be leftovers from his home. He must think it’s a picnic outing.” Li Wei’s heart sank. He didn’t expect that his well-intended gift — a gesture of love, now turned into something strange and unwelcome in this foreign setting. The joyful atmosphere disappeared quickly, replaced by an uncomfortable silence as guests looked at the mooncakes as if they were strange objects from another world. Just as Li Wei wished he could disappear, he suddenly remembered what his mother had said with pride before he came here. 注意： 1.词数应为150左右； 2.按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 He quickly calmed down. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Three months later, Li Wei and his mooncakes appeared at school’s International Food Fair. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 He quickly calmed down. He took a deep breath and decided to introduce the mooncakes. “Mooncakes are very important in Chinese culture,” he began, his voice steady. “They are round, symbolizing reunion. We eat them during the Mid-Autumn Festival to celebrate family togetherness. Each bite is full of sweet fillings, just like the warmth of a family gathering.” As he spoke, the room fell silent. People listened intently, their curiosity piqued. Some started to nod in understanding, and the awkward atmosphere gradually faded away. Emma took a small bite of the mooncake and her eyes widened in surprise. “It’s delicious!” she exclaimed. Others followed suit, and soon, the laughter turned into praises. Three months later, Li Wei and his mooncakes appeared at school’s International Food Fair. His booth was decorated with red lanterns and Chinese knots. People queued up to taste his mooncakes. Li Wei introduced the mooncakes with confidence, sharing the cultural significance behind them. Many students and teachers were deeply attracted. They not only enjoyed the sweet taste of the mooncakes but also learned about Chinese traditions. His mooncakes became the star of the fair. Li Wei was overjoyed. He realized that cultural differences could be bridged through sharing and understanding, and his little mooncakes had become a wonderful bridge to connect different cultures. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述16岁的李伟收到英国同学艾玛生日派对邀请，母亲精心做了月饼当礼物。派对上，大家看到月饼却嘲笑，李伟又尴尬又难过，这时他想起母亲的话。 【详解】1. 段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“他很快冷静下来。”可知，第一段可描写李伟冷静后向大家介绍月饼的文化内涵，大家的态度逐渐转变，开始接受并称赞月饼。 ②由第二段首句内容“三个月后，李伟带着他的月饼出现在学校的国际美食节上。”可知，第二段可描写李伟在美食节上自信介绍月饼，月饼受到欢迎，他也意识到文化交流的重要性。 2. 续写线索：介绍月饼文化——大家接受称赞——参加美食节——月饼受欢迎——意识到文化交流意义 3. 词汇激活： 行为类 ①开始：begin/start ②象征：symbolize/represent ③意识到：realize/become aware of 情绪类 ①尴尬：awkward/embarrassed ②惊讶地：in surprise/in amazement/in astonishment 【点睛】[高分句型1] They are round, symbolizing reunion.(运用了现在分词作伴随状语) [高分句型2] As he spoke, the room fell silent.

B On the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, there is a group of people regularly moving through the snowy mountains, lakes and pastures (牧场) . They are doing one thing — picking up rubbish. They are from the “Beautiful Travel”, an organization founded by Shi Ning. In 2014, when he traveled alone from Dali to Lhasa, seeing amounts of rubbish along the road, he became shocked. Later, Shi Ning and his two companions discussed possible solutions to environmental problems. In2015, they launched a series of campaigns (运动) , starting from picking up rubbish along the highway in Xizang areas. Since then, more than 45 tons of deserted plastic bottles have been recycled thanks to the “Beautiful Travel”. If you piled these plastic bottles up, they would be about 25 times as high as Qomolangma. However, it is difficult for rubbish transporters (运输车) to run at high altitudes during rainy and snowy days, with the closure (关闭) of roads. They established rubbish pickup sites with the local government. Volunteers go to villages, towns and mountainous areas to collect rubbish and when the rubbish is piled up to 500 kg, trucks are sent to collect it. They also call on tourists and local residents to stop littering to protect the local biodiversity. The campaign involves about 30, 000tourists all the way. Volunteers sort out 20% recyclable rubbish and recycle it according to the local price. The remaining 80% of non-recyclable rubbish will be handed over by volunteers and staff to the municipal (市政的) waste removal department for further recycling. The T-shirts worn by the volunteers were made using recycled materials from the rubbish. Blue, representing the blue sky and our planet, is specially chosen for this organization. “It’s like planting the seeds of civilization in people’s hearts, and I believe that one day, they will come out, forming a beautiful landscape, ” Shi Ning said. 4. What inspired Shi Ning to found the “Beautiful Travel”? A. What he saw along the way. B. How he felt about Xizang. C. What the local people did. D. How his companions thought of Dali. 5. What might challenge the rubbish transporters according to the passage? A. The road conditions. B. The awful weather. C. The large amount of rubbish. D. The pressure from the government. 6. How do the volunteers deal with rubbish collected in the mountains? A. By selling it. B. By reusing it. C. By handing it over to a related department. D. By dividing it into different types. 7. Which of the following can be the best title for this passage? A. The Cleaners of Our Nature B. The Protection of Local Biodiversity C. The Beautiful Travel of Volunteers D. The Significance of Recycling Rubbish C Being a vegetarian (素食者) in a meat-eating culture isn’t always easy. I always get asked, “Why? Since when? How come?” and “How can you stand not eating meat?” For me, being a vegetarian isn’t strange; it’s just who and what I am. I’m sick and tired of people judging (评价) me based on a personal choice that has nothing to do with them. Honestly, I could understand if my decision had an influence on their lives, but the thing is it doesn’t, so they should just get over it. If anything, more people should be vegetarians. It’s a fact that a vegetarian has a lower risk of cancer, heart attacks, and high blood pressure. Being a vegetarian can help people live a longer life because they are eating healthily and not taking in the fat found in non-vegetarian diets. While all diets need to be balanced, it is possible to get protein, minerals and nutrients from vegetable sources. Vegetables, milk and eggs have all the requirements your body needs to survive. If you are creative, a vegetarian diet is far from boring. As vegetables come in various types and tastes, they can be prepared and eaten in countless ways. There are so many vegetarian cookbooks, which shows this is a fact. I find it funny when people say vegetarians do not get enough energy from their diet. My answer is to mention Dave Scott, the first person to win the IRONMAN World Championship six times! Yes, surprise, surprise, at the time he was a vegetarian. Vegetarianism is better for the planet because the ecological footprint of vegetarians is smaller. So next time you want to judge someone's personal choice to go veggie, remember they have their reasons, not the least of which are concerns for animals and the state of the planet. 8. How does the author feel about others’ opinions on his diet? A. Curious. B. Annoyed. C. Appreciative. D. Unconcerned. 9. What does paragraph 3 mainly tell us about a vegetarian diet? A. Its advantages. B. Its sources. C. Its varieties. D. Its popularity. 10. Why does the author mention Dave Scott in paragraph 5? A. To show what a vegetarian diet is like. B. To present a study on vegetarian diets. C. To suggest a vegetarian diet is healthy. D. To explore why some athletes are vegetarians. 11. What is the best title for the text? A. My Road to Becoming a Vegetarian B. Mistaken Beliefs about Vegetarianism C. Vegetarianism: A Common Phenomenon D. Vegetarianism: More Than a Personal Choice D In the UK, there are about 12 million people suffering with hearing loss, and approximately 6.7 million could benefit from hearing aids. However, only about 2 million people use them. People with hearing loss may feel hearing aids are meant only for older people. They can feel a sense of embarrassment, ageing and lack of confidence when wearing them. Besides, some people have no confidence in hearing aids and believe they will not help, or will even make their hearing worse. Individuals sometimes believe they will be dependent on their hearing aids, thus choosing not to use them out of desire for independence. Therefore, people with hearing loss may turn to coping mechanisms such as excessively(过度地)turning the volume up on their TVs. In the UK, patients with hearing loss can obtain hearing aids free of charge through National Health Service(NHS). However, the choice of style, manufacturer and level of technology may be limited and can also involve lengthy waiting lists. There are a greater number of hearing aid options available in the private sector but these can sometimes be expensive, which can be a prohibitive factor for individuals. There are some negative perspectives about hearing aids, such as the appearance. Many people have the idea that hearing aids are huge and noticeable. However, there are many different types of hearing aids such as invisible ones in ear canals. The hearing aid selection is discussed with each individual at their hearing assessment, and the correct hearing aids are selected according to their level of hearing loss. There have been other advancements in technology such as rechargeable hearing aids. There is now wireless connectivity in many hearing aids, which enables hearing aids to be connected to mobile devices, tablets and televisions, allowing direct audio streaming into hearing aids. Undoubtedly, wearing hearing aids is very beneficial for well-being, allowing individuals to interact with others and hear better. All of the advancements in technology in the future mean the functionality and comfort of hearing aids will greatly increase, considerably improving the quality of life for more people with hearing loss. 12. What is paragraph 2 mainly about? A. What people with hearing loss should do. B. How older people respond to hearing aids. C. Why some people avoid using hearing aids. D. Whether hearing aids will affect independence. 13. Which of the following may prevent people getting hearing aids from NHS? A. The cost can be higher. B. Patients may have to wait for long. C. Many people have no access to the related policy. D. Some private sectors get hearing aids in advance. 14. What is mainly considered during the hearing aid selection process? A. The cost of the hearing aids. B. The individual’s personal preference. C. The individual’s specific hearing loss. D. The appearance of the hearing aids. 15. What can we expect of the hearing aids in the future? A. They will be connected to more devices. B. They will be made smaller and more fashionable. C. They will enable users to interact more with others. D.

Having moved from Shanghai just three months ago, he felt the party was his first real chance to make friends. His mother had spent the entire morning in their tiny apartment kitchen carefully preparing a gift: homemade mooncakes wrapped in red paper decorated with dragon patterns. “In China, red brings good luck and the dragon represents strength,” she said proudly. “These mooncakes carry our family’s blessings.” At the party, colorful balloons danced along the ceiling (天花板), and the living room was filled with the latest pop songs. Li Wei noticed everyone’s gifts piled (堆放) on a table, and he placed his gift on the top, whose traditional appearance stood out among the gifts. He looked around and found that most of the faces were unfamiliar. So he sat down and listened to the music, waiting excitedly for that big moment — opening the gifts. Soon it came. In the cheers of her friends, Emma walked over to the table. Her eyes were immediately drawn to Li Wei’s uniquely wrapped gift. However, when she opened it, silence fell as she stared at the unfamiliar pastries (糕点). “What…are these?” she asked hesitantly. A boy leaned over and laughed loudly, “Looks like play-dough (橡皮泥)!” Heat rushed to Li Wei’s face as he stammered (结结巴巴地说), “They’re traditional Chinese mooncakes ...” However, his voice was swallowed (淹没) by the laughter that followed. Someone even whispered, “This might be leftovers from his home. He must think it’s a picnic outing.” Li Wei’s heart sank. He didn’t expect that his well-intended gift — a gesture of love, now turned into something strange and unwelcome in this foreign setting. The joyful atmosphere disappeared quickly, replaced by an uncomfortable silence as guests looked at the mooncakes as if they were strange objects from another world. Just as Li Wei wished he could disappear, he suddenly remembered what his mother had said with pride before he came here. 注意： 1.词数应为150左右； 2.按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 He quickly calmed down. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Three months later, Li Wei and his mooncakes appeared at school’s International Food Fair. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
