B Huck, a young boy without a proper family, ran away from his cruel father who often beat him and locked him in a small cabin. He met Jim, a kind Black man who had escaped from slavery (奴隶制) to avoid being sold away from his family, and they decided to travel together on a simple raft (木筏) along the wide Mississippi River. Their journey was full of exciting adventures and unexpected challenges, but it also taught them valuable lessons about true friendship, the meaning of freedom and the importance of kindness. At first, Huck was confused about right and wrong. He had been taught by the adults around him that helping a runaway slave was a sin (犯罪), but he soon realized that Jim treated him like a true friend. He never told lies and took care of him when he was tired or hungry. They faced many dangers during their journey, such as meeting two greedy (贪婪的) cheats who tricked people out of their money with fake stories, and getting lost in a thick, dark forest where they struggled (挣扎) to find their way back. Through these experiences, Huck learned to trust his own heart instead of blindly following the unfair rules of society. One of the most important moments in their journey was when Huck decided to help Jim escape to real freedom, even if it meant he might go to hell according to the old beliefs. He wrote a letter to Jim’ s owner to tell where Jim was, but he tore it up immediately, knowing that Jim was more important than any social rule or religious (宗教的) belief. Later, they met Tom Sawyer, Huck’ s best friend, who joined their adventure and helped them make a creative plan to set Jim free. In the end, Jim was set free with the help of Tom and Huck, and Huck realized that true freedom was not just running away from trouble, but being able to live with a clear conscience (良心). Their long journey along the river became a precious (宝贵的) journey of growth and self-discovery for both Huck and Jim. ---Adapted from The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn 29. Why did Huck run away from home? A. He wanted to help Jim to escape. B. He didn’t like his family’s rules. C. He was treated badly by his father. D. He wanted to travel along the river. 30. What can we know about Jim from the passage? A. He was a man who liked cheating others. B. He didn’t want to escape from his master. C. He tricked Huck’ s money with fake stories. D. He was a man full of kindness and honesty. 31. Which of the following was the correct order of the events? ① Huck tore up the letter to Jim’ s owner. ② Huck ran away from his father. ③ Tom Sawyer joined their adventure. ④ Huck and Jim traveled on a raft. A. ②④①③ B. ④②①③ C. ②①④③ D. ④①②③ 32. What can we learn from Huck’s experience? A. Freedom means running away from all difficulties. B. We should follow what adults tell us without thinking. C. Kindness helps build true friendship and brings growth. D. It’s dangerous for us to go on adventures with strangers. C We often consider the city a stressful place. Crowded streets, expensive housing, all kinds of pollution, and a weak sense of community are just a few reasons people may feel this way about city life. Because of this, many people dream of moving to the countryside for a slower pace of life and a closer connection to nature. But what if we look at cities in a new way—not as the opposite of nature, but as a new kind of nature? At first, this idea may sound strange, but it makes us ask two important questions: What is “nature”? And what is “city”? Many people think nature can be found only in mountains and forests. However, it can also be found in every corner of a city—along a riverbank, in a small park, on a balcony, or in the songs of birds in the trees. In fact, many of our city “neighbors” are animals. In Europe and North America, for example, squirrels are now more common in cities than in forests. As the dividing line between city and nature becomes blurred, some city designers suggest that we need to start seeing cities as ecosystems (生态系统) for all living things, not just humans. An ecosystem includes both living things (like humans, animals, and plants) and non-living things (like air, water, buildings, and roads). In such a system, everything is connected. Humans and other things share the same space, and our actions influence one another. When we design future cities, we should take every part of this ecosystem into consideration. Nature is not only “out there” in faraway places. It is also right here, beside us. If we treat the city as nature, we will stop asking where nature begins and start asking how to live better in it. 33. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage? A. Nature only appears in mountains and forests. B. Nature can also be found on a balcony or in a park in a city. C. Squirrels are less common in European cities than in forests. D. An ecosystem just includes living things like animals and plants. 34. What does the underlined word “blurred” in Paragraph 3 most probably mean? A. Unclear. B. Strange. C. Unusual. D. Straight. 35. What can we learn about the design of future cities from the passage? A. It should build fewer buildings and more forests. B. It should separate cities from ecosystems for living things. C. It should treat cities as ecosystems for all living and non-living things. D. It should consider human needs without thinking about other living things. 36. What is the main purpose of the passage? A. To list the environmental problems of city life. B. To explain why forests have more animals than cities. C. To introduce a new way of seeing cities as a part of nature. D. To tell readers that everyone should move to the countryside. D ①With the rapid development of the Internet and smart devices, technology has brought great changes to our world. It promotes medical progress, saves lives and brings convenience to daily life. It also changes social operation, communication ways and even our self-perception. This hot online topic raises an important question: Are we gradually losing our creative ability as we become more dependent on technology? ②In fact, technology provides great chances for creativity. Plenty of useful online tools can help us finish creative work more easily. People in different fields have made full use of these new technology. Now let’s take a look at how technology is used in business and art. Many companies use well-designed websites, good video ads and popular social media to show creativity, helping them attract more customers and stand out in fierce competition. Artists also use these tools to turn abstract ideas into vivid and lively works, enriching traditional creation. ③However, over-reliance (过度依赖) on the Internet and excessive use of technology can harm our creativity, especially for teenagers easily attracted by online short videos. Many people depend too much on AI, giving up independent thinking. What’s worse, spending too much time on screens, reduces our chances to observe life and come up with new ideas, gradually weakening our creativity. ④The key to solving this issue is to balance technology and creativity. First, limit overuse of electronic products by setting daily “tech-free hours” and turning off unimportant notices. These habits will help us focus better and improve our creative thinking. ⑤Besides, daily walks in nature can refresh our minds and make us creative; activities like yoga, keeping a diary or reading widely also develop it, helping us get along well with technology. ⑥In short, technology is neither good nor bad for creativity in itself. It provides convenience and tools for creation, but over-reliance may weaken our creative ability. As long as we keep a proper balance, we can make technology serve us better and keep our creative spirit alive. 37. What writing method is used to show the advantages of technology in Para. 2? A. By giving examples. B. By listing numbers. C. By using famous sayings. D. By making comparisons. 38. What are mentioned to improve creativity in the passage? a. Relying heavily on AI. b. Taking daily walks in nature. c. Learn vivid and lively works. d. Doing yoga or keeping a diary. A. a and b. B. a and c. C. b and c. D. b and d. 39. What is the structure of the passage? A. B. C. D. 40. What can we infer from the passage about technology and creativity? A. Using electronic products daily destroys creativity. B. Digital tools make traditional works less important. C. Smart use of technology can go well with creativity. D. Teenagers should give up online entertainment to be creative. 第二节：根据短文内容，从短文后所给的选项中选出能填入短文空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。 Forming a study group is a good way to improve learning, yet it needs scientific planning. 41 ◆ Step 1: Decide on the size of the study group. 42 If your group has 1 or 2 people, your group may be quiet and it’s hard to bring different ideas when you have a group activity. If there are over 6 people, it may become noisy and unfocused. The right size can help everyone learn well together. ◆ Step 2: 43 Take a look around the classroom and try to find proper group members. Before class begins or just after it ends, ask your classmates if they would like to join your group and choose those who are serious and responsible. ◆ Step 3: Make reasonable plans. At the first meeting, decide where, when, how often and how long your group will meet. Classrooms, libraries, and study rooms are all good choices. As for time planning, find out a time that is free for everyone and try to stick to it. 44 But if your group studies longer than three hours, members may lose focus. ◆ Step 4: Set clear roles. To help your group members work more closely together, decide on clear roles before each meeting. 45 For example, you need different roles like a discussion leader, a note-taker and a reminder to make sure everyone takes part actively. A. Find proper members. B. Ask before class begins. C. It is advised to choose a large place. D. It is advised to meet for an hour or more each week. E. And make sure everyone knows their responsibilities. F. There are four key steps to build a successful study group. G.

The piece which was played on the erhu especially moved me. The music was strangely beautiful, but under the beauty I sensed a strong sadness and pain. The piece had a simple name, Erquan Yingyue (Moon Reflected on Second Spring), but it was one of the most moving pieces of music that I’ve ever heard. The erhu sounded so sad that I almost cried along with it as I listened. Later I looked up the history of Erquan Yingyue, and I began to understand the sadness in the music. The music was written by Abing, a folk musician who was born in the city of Wuxi in 1893. His mother died when he was very young. Abing’s father taught him to play many musical instruments, such as the drums, dizi and erhu, and by age 17, Abing was known for his musical ability. However, after his father died, Abing’s life grew worse. He was very poor. Not only that, he developed a serious illness and became blind. For several years, he had no home. He lived on the streets and played music to make money. Even after Abing got married and had a home again, he continued to sing and play on the streets. He performed in this way for many years. Abing’s amazing musical skills made him very popular during his lifetime. By the end of his life, he could play over 600 pieces of music. Many of these were written by Abing himself. It is a pity that only six pieces of music in total were recorded for the future world to hear, but his popularity continues to this day. Today, Abing’s Erquan Yingyue is a piece which all the great erhu masters play and praise. It has become one of China’s national treasures. It not only paints a picture of Abing’s own life but also reminds people of their own sad or painful experiences. 66. What did the writer sense under the beauty of Erquan Yingyue? 67. Why did Abing become blind? 68. What made Abing popular during his lifetime? 69. How many pieces of Abing’s music was recorded for the future world? 70. What can you learn from Abing? 七、书面表达 (共1小题；满分25分) 71. 初中阶段是一段充满发现与蜕变的旅程。课堂上，我们汲取知识；交往中，我们学会理解；面对困难，我们日益勇敢；不懈努力，我们收获成长。学校英语广播站发起征稿，邀请同学们以I’ve learned to ________为题，写一篇短文，分享初中阶段让你受益匪浅的成长感悟。内容包括： (1) 简要描述一件让你学会某种品质或能力的具体事件； (2) 说明这一经历对你产生了怎样的影响或改变； (3) 表达你对这段成长历程的感悟。 注意： (1) 词数 90 左右，开头已给出，不计入总词数； (2) 文中不得出现考生的真实姓名、校名等信息。 I’ve learned to ________ Middle school life is a journey full of discovery, change, and growth.

In this process, I’ve learned to keep trying even when things get hard. Last term, I joined the school running team. At first, I was the slowest runner and often fell behind. I wanted to give up many times, but my teacher encouraged me not to give up easily. Then I kept practicing every morning. Slowly, my speed improved, and I even took third place in the school sports meeting. This experience taught me that progress doesn’t come overnight. As long as I keep trying, I can make it. Now, whenever I face difficulties, I will never give up easily. (94字) 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
