Chopsticks have been used in Asia for over 3,000 years. The earliest chopsticks were discovered in Henan China about 1200 BCE. Over the next 2,000 years, they spread throughout East and Southeast Asia.
The three most well-known types are Chinese, Japanese, and Korean. Chinese chopsticks are longer with wide, rounded points at the end, mostly made of plastic or bamboo. While Japanese chopsticks are shorter and more pointed. Korean ones are flat rather than round and made of metal rather than wood. It’s said that ancient Royalty (皇室) used silver chopsticks to see if their food was poisoned (有毒的). In Southeast Asia, Vietnamese chopsticks are similar to Chinese ones.
Chopsticks are not just eating tools. A proper chopstick grip (握法) can greatly improve dining experience. First, place the top part of two sticks between your thumb and index finger. Hold the upper chopstick gently with your first three fingers while resting the lower one at your ring finger. Meanwhile, put your thumb at the side of your index-finger nail. The upper stick is moved up and down with the movements of the index finger and middle finger. This way, pieces of food can be easily grasped between the tips of the chopsticks.
________ The first rule is to grab and not stab (刺入) food with the tip of your chopsticks. Second, don’t set chopsticks vertically (垂直的) into the rice in your bowl. In some cultures, such positioning of chopsticks is considered as a symbol associated with death. Third, watch where you point your chopsticks. It’s rude to point them directly at others.
Following the guidelines above, you not only show respect for the cultural traditions about chopsticks, but also enrich your overall dining experience.
54. We can learn about the ________ of chopsticks in Paragraph 2.
①
②
③
④
⑤
features
discovery
materials
types
sales
A. ①②③ B. ③④⑤ C. ①③④ D. ①②⑤
55. Which of the following pictures describes the proper chopstick grip?
A. B. C. D.
56. Which sentence can be put in the ________ in Paragraph 4?
A. It’s not easy for you to get the use of chopsticks.
B. Understanding chopstick manners is also necessary.
C. Remember to choose suitable chopsticks for meals.
D. Chopsticks play an important role at Chinese table.
57. What’s the best title of the passage?

C. Chopsticks, Ancient Eating Tools D. The Table Manners in Asia
C
Cameron Patterson, a British student, spent his childhood in China. He has seen many great changes in the country over the past 15 years, especially trains.
At the age of 8, Patterson moved from Wales to join his father in Shanxi. In the following years, he and his parents lived in a few cities. They also travelled a lot during holidays. However, travelling itself wasn’t always relaxing. When his family moved from Jiangsu to Guangdong, they took the old green train and spent one and a half days on the trip.
Now with high-speed (高速的) trains, life has become much easier. Long and boring trips in the past have become shorter. Also, the modern trains are more comfortable. “A coin (硬币) wouldn’t move at all on the table of a fast-moving train,” he said excitedly.
Patterson was glad to see these changes in China, but he also wondered how they happened. When he read a poem about China’s role model (榜样) Jiao Yulu in 2015, he got the answer. Jiao was seriously ill at that time, but still kept working to help people till the end of his life. Jiao devoted himself to improving people’s life. “He was really great. I learn a lot from him,” said Patterson.
Patterson now works as a Confucius Institute volunteer at Lancaster University. “I’m proud to act as a bridge between the UK and China and help the two peoples know about each other’s cultures better.”
58. From the first two paragraphs, what do we know about Patterson?
A. He moved to China at an early age.
B. He didn’t feel any changes in China.
C. He took great interest in China’s history.
D. He was always excited when taking the old green train.
59. What does the underlined word “devoted” mean?
A. Finished doing something.
B. Introduced new things or ideas.
C. Gave most of one’s time and energy to something.
D. Shared ideas or information with someone else.
60. Why does Patterson mention the story of Jiao Yulu?
A. To ask readers to study harder.
B. To tell readers to read poems.
C. To make foreign readers learn Chinese.
D. To show that people like him help China become stronger.
61. According to the passage, we can infer (推断) Patterson ________.
A. wants more people to travel around the world
B. enjoys acting as a bridge between the UK and China
C. thinks it is useless to learn cultures of other countries
D. feels happy to live in China with more people from the UK
D
Scientists have found a new way to study the health of soil-by listening to it. They think their way could help people monitor (监测) and improve soil around the world.
All living things-animals, insects, and even plants-make sounds, and by listening we can study those noises. The way has been used to watch bats, birds and sea animals. Scientists in Australia wanted to see if they could use listening to check how healthy soil was.
Soil can be filled with many living things, and the greater the variety (多样性) of living things, the healthier the soil. For example, animals without backbones like ants and worms help nutrients (营养) and water pass through soil. However, the change of the environment and human activities have reduced the variety of living things in soil. “It‘s very important to monitor the variety of living things in soil,” Robinson said.
For the study, the scientists first put special microphones (麦克风) into the soil and then moved away and stood silently. Next, they collected many hours of recordings from the Mount Bold area of Australia. Finally, they took some to check soil health.
The recordings showed the different sounds living things made underground. The study found that more different kinds of sounds suggested healthier soil. It also showed that listening is a good way to test soil health. It costs less and causes less loss than other ways, such as digging up soil and testing it. In the future, Robinson said, “Everyone can just buy their own little microphone and hear the sounds of soil.”
62. What did scientists in Australia want to use listening for?
A. Checking the health of soil. B. Studying living things’ noises.
C. Watching some living things. D. Making some animals’ sounds.
63. What can we learn about ants and worms from Paragraph 3?
A. It's necessary to monitor them.
B. It's natural for them to live in soil.
C. They are helpful to the health of soil.
D. They add to the variety of living things.
64. What does Paragraph 4 mainly talk about?
A. The study’s steps. B. The study’s tools.
C. The study’s result. D. The study’s purpose.
65. According to Robinson, what’s the future of listening to soil like?
A. It will be used in other fields. B. It can be used by more people.
C. It can dig up life underground. D. It will bring more living things.

Books Build Bridges
In a small village far from the city, children had very few books to read. Their school library was almost empty. A group of students from a city middle school learned about this and decided to take action. They started a book drive called “Pages of Friendship”.
First, they made posters and gave speeches in their school to encourage donations. They collected used books from their own homes, classmates, and neighbours. Then they put them into different groups: storybooks for primary students, science and history books for older children, and colorful picture books for the youngest readers. After that, they worked with their teachers to contact the village school and plan how to send the books.
Every month, they carefully packed and sent a box of 50 books. To make the connection more meaningful, they also started writing letters to the village children, sharing good books and their own school life stories. The village children wrote back with drawings and their thoughts about the books, expressing their excitement and thankfulness. One wrote, “These books are like windows to a bigger world that I’ve never seen before.”
The project not only provided books for children, but also built a bridge of friendship between city and village students, showing how simple actions can connect young hearts across long distances.

考查现在完成时。has been to去过(已返回);has gone to去了(未返回);has been in已在(某地停留);has arrived in到达(强调动作完成,不强调停留)。根据“She’ll be there for two days.”可知,妈妈目前仍在上海未返回,且说话时不在本地,应使用“has gone to”表示“已去某地(未归)”。故选B。

—Well, ________ me, I always start my day with coffee. It gives me energy.

because of因为;as for至于;such as例如;thanks to多亏。根据上文“What about you?”可知是在询问对方的情况,回答者需要引出自己的情况。as for用于引出话题对象,as for me是固定搭配,符合语境。
34. —The Spring Break gives parents a good chance to travel with their children.
—Some companies offer paid leave to parents _________ more families can enjoy the holidays together.
A. as soon as B. so that C. even though D. ever since

【解析】
【详解】句意:春假给了父母一个和孩子一起旅行的好机会。——一些公司给父母提供带薪休假,以便更多的家庭可以一起享受假期。
as soon as一……就……(引导时间状语从句);so that以便;为了(引导目的状语从句);even though即使;尽管(引导让步状语从句); ever since自从……以来(引导时间状语从句)。句子前半部分“Some companies offer paid leave to parents”是动作,后半部分“more families can enjoy the holidays together”是这个动作想要达成的目的,因此需要引导目的状语从句的连词。
35. —Both online and on-site travel have their own advantages and disadvantages.

I see your point我明白你的意思,用于认同对方观点;You’re joking你在开玩笑吧,用于表示怀疑;You’re welcome不客气,用于回应感谢;Excuse me打扰了,用于礼貌打断或引起注意。根据上下文,答句是对前句观点的认同,应填I see your point。

Chopsticks have been used in Asia for over 3,000 years. The earliest chopsticks were discovered in Henan China about 1200 BCE. Over the next 2,000 years, they spread throughout East and Southeast Asia.
The three most well-known types are Chinese, Japanese, and Korean. Chinese chopsticks are longer with wide, rounded points at the end, mostly made of plastic or bamboo. While Japanese chopsticks are shorter and more pointed. Korean ones are flat rather than round and made of metal rather than wood. It’s said that ancient Royalty (皇室) used silver chopsticks to see if their food was poisoned (有毒的). In Southeast Asia, Vietnamese chopsticks are similar to Chinese ones.
Chopsticks are not just eating tools. A proper chopstick grip (握法) can greatly improve dining experience. First, place the top part of two sticks between your thumb and index finger. Hold the upper chopstick gently with your first three fingers while resting the lower one at your ring finger. Meanwhile, put your thumb at the side of your index-finger nail. The upper stick is moved up and down with the movements of the index finger and middle finger. This way, pieces of food can be easily grasped between the tips of the chopsticks.
________ The first rule is to grab and not stab (刺入) food with the tip of your chopsticks. Second, don’t set chopsticks vertically (垂直的) into the rice in your bowl. In some cultures, such positioning of chopsticks is considered as a symbol associated with death. Third, watch where you point your chopsticks. It’s rude to point them directly at others.
Following the guidelines above, you not only show respect for the cultural traditions about chopsticks, but also enrich your overall dining experience.
54. We can learn about the ________ of chopsticks in Paragraph 2.
①
②
③
④
⑤
features
discovery
materials
types
sales
A. ①②③ B. ③④⑤ C. ①③④ D. ①②⑤
55. Which of the following pictures describes the proper chopstick grip?
A. B. C. D.
56. Which sentence can be put in the ________ in Paragraph 4?
A. It’s not easy for you to get the use of chopsticks.
B. Understanding chopstick manners is also necessary.
C. Remember to choose suitable chopsticks for meals.
D. Chopsticks play an important role at Chinese table.
57. What’s the best title of the passage?
A. The Spread of Chinese Culture B. Chopsticks, Treasure of Asian Culture
C. Chopsticks, Ancient Eating Tools D. The Table Manners in Asia
【答案】54. C 55. D 56. B 57. B

Cameron Patterson, a British student, spent his childhood in China. He has seen many great changes in the country over the past 15 years, especially trains.
At the age of 8, Patterson moved from Wales to join his father in Shanxi. In the following years, he and his parents lived in a few cities. They also travelled a lot during holidays. However, travelling itself wasn’t always relaxing. When his family moved from Jiangsu to Guangdong, they took the old green train and spent one and a half days on the trip.
Now with high-speed (高速的) trains, life has become much easier. Long and boring trips in the past have become shorter. Also, the modern trains are more comfortable. “A coin (硬币) wouldn’t move at all on the table of a fast-moving train,” he said excitedly.
Patterson was glad to see these changes in China, but he also wondered how they happened. When he read a poem about China’s role model (榜样) Jiao Yulu in 2015, he got the answer. Jiao was seriously ill at that time, but still kept working to help people till the end of his life. Jiao devoted himself to improving people’s life. “He was really great. I learn a lot from him,” said Patterson.
Patterson now works as a Confucius Institute volunteer at Lancaster University. “I’m proud to act as a bridge between the UK and China and help the two peoples know about each other’s cultures better.”

Scientists have found a new way to study the health of soil-by listening to it. They think their way could help people monitor (监测) and improve soil around the world.
All living things-animals, insects, and even plants-make sounds, and by listening we can study those noises. The way has been used to watch bats, birds and sea animals. Scientists in Australia wanted to see if they could use listening to check how healthy soil was.
Soil can be filled with many living things, and the greater the variety (多样性) of living things, the healthier the soil. For example, animals without backbones like ants and worms help nutrients (营养) and water pass through soil. However, the change of the environment and human activities have reduced the variety of living things in soil. “It‘s very important to monitor the variety of living things in soil,” Robinson said.
For the study, the scientists first put special microphones (麦克风) into the soil and then moved away and stood silently. Next, they collected many hours of recordings from the Mount Bold area of Australia. Finally, they took some to check soil health.
The recordings showed the different sounds living things made underground. The study found that more different kinds of sounds suggested healthier soil. It also showed that listening is a good way to test soil health. It costs less and causes less loss than other ways, such as digging up soil and testing it. In the future, Robinson said, “Everyone can just buy their own little microphone and hear the sounds of soil.”
62. What did scientists in Australia want to use listening for?
A. Checking the health of soil. B. Studying living things’ noises.
C. Watching some living things. D. Making some animals’ sounds.
63. What can we learn about ants and worms from Paragraph 3?
A. It's necessary to monitor them.
B. It's natural for them to live in soil.
C. They are helpful to the health of soil.
D. They add to the variety of living things.
64. What does Paragraph 4 mainly talk about?
A. The study’s steps. B. The study’s tools.
C. The study’s result. D. The study’s purpose.
65. According to Robinson, what’s the future of listening to soil like?
A. It will be used in other fields. B. It can be used by more people.
C. It can dig up life underground. D. It will bring more living things.
【答案】62. A 63. C 64. A 65. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文,主要讲述了科学家发现了一种通过聆听土壤声音来研究土壤健康的新方法,介绍了该方法的原理、研究步骤、优势以及未来的应用前景。
【62题详解】
根据第二段最后一句“Scientists in Australia wanted to see if they could use listening to check how healthy soil was.”可知,澳大利亚科学家想要利用听声音来检查土壤的健康状况。
【63题详解】
根据第三段“For example, animals without backbones like ants and worms help nutrients (营养) and water pass through soil.”可知,蚂蚁和蠕虫有助于营养和水在土壤中通过,这说明它们对土壤健康是有益的。
【64题详解】
第四段中使用了“first…Next…Finally…”等表示顺序的连接词,详细描述了科学家进行研究的具体操作流程和步骤。
【65题详解】
根据最后一段Robinson说的话“Everyone can just buy their own little microphone and hear the sounds of soil.”可知,未来每个人都可以购买麦克风来听土壤的声音,意味着这种方法可以被更多人使用。

Books Build Bridges
In a small village far from the city, children had very few books to read. Their school library was almost empty. A group of students from a city middle school learned about this and decided to take action. They started a book drive called “Pages of Friendship”.
First, they made posters and gave speeches in their school to encourage donations. They collected used books from their own homes, classmates, and neighbours. Then they put them into different groups: storybooks for primary students, science and history books for older children, and colorful picture books for the youngest readers. After that, they worked with their teachers to contact the village school and plan how to send the books.
Every month, they carefully packed and sent a box of 50 books. To make the connection more meaningful, they also started writing letters to the village children, sharing good books and their own school life stories. The village children wrote back with drawings and their thoughts about the books, expressing their excitement and thankfulness. One wrote, “These books are like windows to a bigger world that I’ve never seen before.”
The project not only provided books for children, but also built a bridge of friendship between city and village students, showing how simple actions can connect young hearts across long distances.
