A. thinking B. smiling C. silence D. noise 【答案】1. A 2. A 3. B 4. C 5. D 6. C 7. D 8. B 9. D 10. C 【解析】 【导语】本文讲述农夫丢表后，小男孩通过安静倾听找到的故事，揭示了静心思考能更好地解决问题这一道理。 【1题详解】 句意：农夫很担心，因为手表对他很重要。 根据“lost his watch…important”可知丢失重要物品会担心，worried表示“担忧的”符合句意，interested“感兴趣”，honest“诚实的”，quiet“安静的”均不符合语境。 【2题详解】 句意：在干草里找了很久后，他放弃独自寻找，叫一群孩子帮忙。 根据“asked a group of children”可知他自己不再找了，give up doing“放弃做某事”，give out“分发”，give in“屈服”，give off“散发”，只有gave up贴合“自己放弃”的语境。 【3题详解】 句意：听到这个消息，孩子们冲进谷仓，搜寻了整个地方。 前文是找手表，search表示“搜寻”；find表示“找到（结果）”，此处强调搜寻动作，选searched。 【4题详解】 句意：就在农夫以为自己再也找不回手表时，一个小男孩走过来请求再试一次。 所有人都没找到，农夫觉得永远找不回来了；never“绝不”符合句意；just“仅仅”，still“仍然”，only“只”，语义不符。 【5题详解】 句意：农夫看着他心想：“为什么不试试？毕竟这孩子看起来足够真诚。” 根据“Why not?”可知农夫在给自己找理由同意，after all表示“毕竟”，用来缓和语气，同意小男孩尝试；once again“再一次”，at first“起初”，in fact“事实上”均逻辑不通。 【6题详解】 句意：农夫既高兴又惊讶。 所有孩子都失败了，小男孩却找到了，农夫感到惊喜，surprised表示“感到惊喜的”符合句意；angry“生气”，proud“自豪”，nervous“紧张”，均不符合心情。 【7题详解】 句意：他问男孩在别人失败后是如何成功的。 与后文“others had failed”形成反义对应，succeeded意为“成功” 符合语境；tried（尝试）无法突出对比；improved（改善）语义无关；found含义为“找到”，代入句子语义不通顺。 【8题详解】 句意：男孩回答：“我只是坐在地上静静聆听。” 根据“heard the ticking”可知是通过听声音，对应动作listen表示“听”；see“看”，sing“唱歌”，rest“休息”，均不匹配声音线索。 【9题详解】 句意：一颗平静的心，比浮躁的心更擅长思考。 后文“restless one”指代mind，表示“内心”；environment“环境”，ear“耳朵”，world“世界”，均不对应人的内心思绪。 【10题详解】 句意：每天给自己几分钟安静独处的时光，生活会变得更轻松快乐。 全文核心是安静聆听、内心沉静；silence表示“寂静”符合文意。thinking“思考”，smiling“微笑”，noise“噪音”，都不是故事传递的核心。 二、阅读理解（共16小题，满分32分） 阅读短文A，B，从各题的四个选项（A、B、C、D）中选出能回答所提问题或完成所给句子的最佳答案。 A Good manners are necessary to show respect for others.

D 【解析】 【导语】本文介绍了各类良好礼仪，包含个人习惯、电话礼仪、餐桌礼仪以及尊重他人的做法，区分了礼貌与不礼貌的行为。 【11题详解】 根据该部分下方的内容“Wait until everyone is seated before starting to eat.”、“Don’t lick the plate”以及“leave the table”等关键信息可知，这一部分主要介绍的是用餐的礼仪规范，因此标题应为“餐桌礼仪”。 【12题详解】 原文Treating others with respect板块写明Be interested in what others have to say，这是尊重他人的行为；其余三项都是不礼貌的行为。 【13题详解】 通读全文可知，这张海报主要围绕“良好的礼仪”展开，详细介绍了个人习惯、电话礼仪、餐桌礼仪及尊重他人等方面的规范。因此，最有可能出现在一个关于礼仪的网站上。 B The earth is getting hotter. We call it global warming. What makes this happen? People burn things like gas, oil, and coal for energy. They cut down trees and create a lot of waste. These actions release harmful gases into the air, which trap heat from the sun. These are major reasons for global warming. Global warming affects everything on the planet. It’s like the earth is getting a high fever. If we have a few degrees’ increase in body temperature, we feel sick. The same goes for our planet. Even a small rise in temperature can cause big problems. The effects of global warming are serious and far-reaching. For example, the snow and ice in the North Pole are starting to melt rapidly. This causes the sea level to rise, which can lead to more floods and severe storms in coastal areas. Many animals, such as polar bears, are losing their homes because the ice is disappearing. Additionally, global warming can cause droughts in some places, making it hard for farmers to grow food. This not only hurts animals but also threatens people’s lives and food supply. Thankfully, we can help slow down global warming by taking some simple actions. Instead of driving cars, we can choose to walk or ride bikes. We should turn off devices we aren’t using, like TVs and lights, to save electricity. Another great way to help is by planting trees in our community and reducing waste. Just by making some small changes in our daily lives, we can play a role in addressing global warming. 14. What is the main cause of global warming according to the passage? A. The earth moving closer to the sun. B. People burning fuels (燃料) and cutting down trees. C. Animals losing their homes in the North Pole. D. Too much rain and storms in coastal areas. 15. Why does the writer say “It’s like the earth is getting a high fever”? A. To show that the earth needs to see a doctor. B. To explain that the earth’s temperature is normal. C. To describe the serious condition of global warming. D. To tell us that people are feeling sick because of the heat. 16. The underlined word “addressing” in the last sentence probably means “_______”. A. writing an address on a letter B. dealing with or solving C. moving to a new house D. giving a formal speech 17. What is the purpose of the text? A. To explain why people feel sick in hot weather. B. To describe the effects of global warming. C. To warn people about global warming and call for action. D. To tell farmers how to grow food during droughts. 【答案】14. B 15. C 16. B 17. C 【解析】 【导语】本文介绍全球变暖，先说明人类燃烧燃料、砍伐树木是变暖主要成因，接着阐述海平面上升、干旱、动物失去家园等严重危害，最后呼吁大家通过绿色出行、节电、植树等小事行动，缓解全球变暖。 【14题详解】 根据原文第一段“People burn things like gas, oil, and coal for energy. They cut down trees and create a lot of waste... These are major reasons for global warming.”可知，人类燃烧燃料、砍伐树木是全球变暖的主要成因。 【15题详解】 根据原文第二段“It’s like the earth is getting a high fever. If we have a few degrees’ increase in body temperature, we feel sick. The same goes for our planet.”可知，作者把地球升温比作人发高烧，用来形象描述全球变暖的严峻状况。 【16题详解】 根据全文结尾语境，前文讲缓解全球变暖的办法，“play a role in addressing global warming”意为”在应对、解决全球变暖问题上发挥作用“。addressing意思是”应对，解决“，对应选项B。 【17题详解】 文章先讲全球变暖成因、严重危害，最后给出普通人可践行的缓解措施，写作目的是警示人们重视全球变暖，并号召大家行动起来。 C 阅读短文，根据短文内容，从短文后面的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有一项是多余项。 Do you want to be a great storyteller?

An ethnic group (民族) called the Tangut (党项) built it in northwestern China. People didn’t know much about it until the 1970s, when some tombs (墓穴) were found. Now, the tombs are included in China’s 2025 nomination for World Heritage status (世界遗产申报名单). The tombs are near Helan Mountain in the Ningxia Hui autonomous region (自治区). They are shaped like pyramids (金字塔) and cover an area of about 50 square kilometers. There are nine tombs in total. Experts say the tombs show a mix of different cultures. “The tombs are important because they show us the history of Western Xia and how different ethnic groups lived together in ancient China,” said Du Jianlu, dean (学院院长) of a university in Ningxia. For example, researchers found a kind of roof decoration called chiwen, which has a dragon’s head and a fish’s tail. These decorations have been used since the Han and Tang dynasties to stop fires. This mix of styles shows how the Tangut and Han peoples communicated with each other, said Du. In the 19th century, Western Xia characters were first discovered. They look similar to Chinese characters because they took parts from Chinese characters, but have a new shape. Both types of characters were used in the country back then. A scholar called Gule Maocai even made a dictionary in 1190 to help the Tangut and Han peoples understand each other, said Du. 47.

People burn things like gas, oil, and coal for energy. They cut down trees and create a lot of waste. These actions release harmful gases into the air, which trap heat from the sun. These are major reasons for global warming. Global warming affects everything on the planet. It’s like the earth is getting a high fever. If we have a few degrees’ increase in body temperature, we feel sick. The same goes for our planet. Even a small rise in temperature can cause big problems. The effects of global warming are serious and far-reaching. For example, the snow and ice in the North Pole are starting to melt rapidly. This causes the sea level to rise, which can lead to more floods and severe storms in coastal areas. Many animals, such as polar bears, are losing their homes because the ice is disappearing. Additionally, global warming can cause droughts in some places, making it hard for farmers to grow food. This not only hurts animals but also threatens people’s lives and food supply. Thankfully, we can help slow down global warming by taking some simple actions. Instead of driving cars, we can choose to walk or ride bikes. We should turn off devices we aren’t using, like TVs and lights, to save electricity. Another great way to help is by planting trees in our community and reducing waste. Just by making some small changes in our daily lives, we can play a role in addressing global warming. 14. What is the main cause of global warming according to the passage? A. The earth moving closer to the sun. B. People burning fuels (燃料) and cutting down trees. C. Animals losing their homes in the North Pole. D. Too much rain and storms in coastal areas. 15. Why does the writer say “It’s like the earth is getting a high fever”? A. To show that the earth needs to see a doctor. B. To explain that the earth’s temperature is normal. C. To describe the serious condition of global warming. D. To tell us that people are feeling sick because of the heat. 16. The underlined word “addressing” in the last sentence probably means “_______”. A. writing an address on a letter B. dealing with or solving C. moving to a new house D. giving a formal speech 17. What is the purpose of the text? A. To explain why people feel sick in hot weather. B. To describe the effects of global warming. C. To warn people about global warming and call for action. D. To tell farmers how to grow food during droughts. C 阅读短文，根据短文内容，从短文后面的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有一项是多余项。 Do you want to be a great storyteller? Here’s some advice that may help. First, read a lot.

An ethnic group (民族) called the Tangut (党项) built it in northwestern China. People didn’t know much about it until the 1970s, when some tombs (墓穴) were found. Now, the tombs are included in China’s 2025 nomination for World Heritage status (世界遗产申报名单). The tombs are near Helan Mountain in the Ningxia Hui autonomous region (自治区). They are shaped like pyramids (金字塔) and cover an area of about 50 square kilometers. There are nine tombs in total. Experts say the tombs show a mix of different cultures. “The tombs are important because they show us the history of Western Xia and how different ethnic groups lived together in ancient China,” said Du Jianlu, dean (学院院长) of a university in Ningxia. For example, researchers found a kind of roof decoration called chiwen, which has a dragon’s head and a fish’s tail. These decorations have been used since the Han and Tang dynasties to stop fires. This mix of styles shows how the Tangut and Han peoples communicated with each other, said Du. In the 19th century, Western Xia characters were first discovered. They look similar to Chinese characters because they took parts from Chinese characters, but have a new shape. Both types of characters were used in the country back then. A scholar called Gule Maocai even made a dictionary in 1190 to help the Tangut and Han peoples understand each other, said Du. 47.
