Dear Jane,
I’m sorry to know that your brother made your best artwork not so perfect and you argued with him. I know exactly how you feel!
Last week, I was trying to create a perfect birthday book for my dad about our family’s grocery store. Just then, my friend Mareya showed up and asked me to go to the park. But when we arrived there, rain started pouring down. We came back home, dripping wet. And that’s when my heart pretty much stopped. Right there, in front of the recycling bin (回收箱), was a box full of soaking-wet papers. My drawings!
“Why did my drawings get out here?” I cried.
“Umm,” my brother Indi said, “Mom asked me to recycle all the papers on the floor, so I did.”
“What?! You destroyed my gift for Dad!”
“Gift for dad? Unless…” said Mareya, “Remember those papier-mâché (纸浆) pumpkins we made before? We can cover balloons with these wet papers to make as much ‘fruit’ as we can.”
“Do you think this could work?” I asked.
“Um… Let’s try first.”
My birthday book was about the grocery store, so we decided to use balloons and the papers to make “apples”, “peaches” and “oranges”. When we finished, I cheered, “Wow! Still the best gift!”
There’s a pretty happy ending to this sad story. My dad loves his new gift so much that he keeps it right in his store.
So, dear Jane, Mareya’s “every cloud has a silver lining” way of looking at things did help. Next time you might want to keep your special things in an extra-safe place. Now I believe you know how to deal with your colored painting. How about turning it into a collage (拼图)? You can make it!
Arizona
4. What is Jane’s problem?
A. She couldn’t find her favourite artwork.
B. She had a terrible fight with her friend.
C. Her brother damaged her best painting.
D. She failed to finish the gift for her dad.
5. Which is the right order of the following events?
a. Arizona’s drawings were wet in the rain.
b. Arizona went to the park with Mareya.
c. Arizona’s brother put her drawings in the recycling bin.
d. They worked together and made something new.
A. a-b-d-c B. b-c-d-a C. a-c-b-d D. b-c-a-d
6. If Arizona broke her favorite cup, what might Mareya suggest she do?
A. B. C. D.
7. What does Arizona do to help Jane?
① Share solutions.
② Show understanding.
③ Share her own experience.
④ Show reasons behind Jane’s problems.
A. ①②③ B. ②③④ C. ①③④ D. ①②④
【答案】4. C 5. D 6. D 7. A
【解析】
【导语】本文主要写Arizona写信安慰Jane,分享自己画被毁后改造出新礼物的经历,开导Jane换办法补救画作。
【4题详解】
根据文章第一段“I’m sorry to know that your brother made your best artwork not so perfect and you argued with him”可知,Jane的弟弟弄坏了她最棒的画作,对应C选项 “Her brother damaged her best painting.”。
【5题详解】
顺着原文故事线梳理:先和朋友去公园(b),弟弟把画扔进回收箱(c),画被大雨淋透(a),最后两人利用湿纸重做手工礼物(d),事件顺序就是b-c-a-d,对应D选项。
【6题详解】
根据文中Arizona的经历可知:原本被毁、湿透的画作没有丢弃,而是重新加工做成了新礼物,Mareya的思路是把损坏的物品改造利用,做成新物件。故选D。
【7题详解】
根据“I know exactly how you feel!”能看出作者先共情,对应②表达理解;文章中间完整讲了自己画被弄坏的亲身故事,对应③分享自身经历;文末提议Jane把损坏的画改成拼贴画,对应①给出解决办法。所以①②③三点正确,选A。
C
Gifts are an important part of developing strong relationships with people. But in different cultures, certain gifts may be considered unlucky or rude, and even the timing of giving a gift matters.
There are some improper gifts you should pay attention to. Gifts showing the number four or a gift of four items are unlucky in Japanese, Korean and Chinese cultures. Also, knives and scissors are not good gifts in Latin America and Asia, because these mean cutting a relationship and you are no longer friends. And certain flowers may also send wrong messages to others as they have special meanings in some cultures. For example, in countries like France, chrysanthemums (菊花) are only given when someone dies. What’s more, handkerchiefs (手帕) are fine in some places, such as Japan, but they may be a symbol of sadness or death in other countries like Italy.
So what is a proper and thoughtful gift? Anything from your home country that is difficult to get elsewhere would be good, such as a nice piece of Chinese paper-cutting. Once you have got to know someone, try to give them a present to go with their personal interests as well. If your friend enjoys football, why not get him a shirt of his favourite team?
▲ Westerners usually give gifts when meeting each other, but in Eastern cultures it is more usual to give gifts when you leave. There may also be special holiday times when people expect to receive gifts.
Gift-giving customs are different from country to country, so it is difficult to be correct in every situation. But if you learn the common rules and do some research on the customs of the places you will visit, you will not go too far wrong.
8. How does the writer tell readers about improper gifts?
A. By giving examples. B. By stating opinions.
C. By listing numbers. D. By telling stories.
9. Which of the following may be a good gift if you are to give one?
A. Four knives for a Korean classmate. B. Handkerchiefs for an Italian teacher.
C. Chinese calligraphy for an American friend. D. Chrysanthemums for a French neighbor.
10. Which sentence can be put into “ ▲ ” in Paragraph 4?
A. It’s necessary to give gifts on important holidays.
B. When to give gifts also depends on your culture.
C. When to give gifts is based on personal interests.
D. It’s common to give gifts when you visit others.
11. What is the purpose of this text?
A. To make some rules for giving gifts.
B. To remind us of cross-cultural gift customs.
C. To show how to keep good relations.
D. To compare Eastern and Western gift habits.
【答案】8. A 9. C 10. B 11. B
【解析】
【导语】本文主要讲述不同国家送礼习俗存在差异,介绍了各类不宜赠送的礼物、合适的礼物以及东西方送礼时间的不同,提醒人们留意跨文化送礼风俗。
【8题详解】
根据第二段内容可知,作者列举了数字“四”(日本、韩国、中国)、刀具(拉丁美洲、亚洲)、菊花(法国)、手帕(意大利)等具体实例来说明哪些是不合适的礼物。因此作者是通过举例子(By giving examples)来告诉读者的。
【9题详解】
根据第二段可知,A 项中的“四”和“刀具”在韩国和亚洲文化中不吉利;B 项中的“手帕”在意大利象征悲伤或死亡;D 项中的“菊花”在法国仅用于葬礼。根据第三段“Anything from your home country that is difficult to get elsewhere would be good”(,C 项“中国书法”符合这一建议。
【10题详解】
空格位于第四段段首,后文紧接着对比了西方人(见面时)和东方人(离开时)送礼时间的不同,并提到了特殊节日。这说明送礼的时间也取决于文化背景。B 项“When to give gifts also depends on your culture.”能准确概括本段内容。
【11题详解】
文章第一段引出话题,第二段介绍不当礼物,第三段介绍合适的礼物,第四段介绍送礼时间,最后一段总结建议了解各地习俗。整篇文章旨在提醒读者注意不同文化间的送礼习俗,以避免冒犯。
D
In this age of big storms, smart designers around the world are taking the opportunity to rethink what they rebuild.
Just before dawn on February 6, 2023, a 29-year-old baker named Nuri Imren woke to the sound of his sister screaming. In the Turkish city of Antakya, his family’s apartment was shaking from side to side. A minute later, he took his whole family down to the street. Many tall buildings fell around them.
A serious earthquake almost destroyed the whole city. Although the city was in a known earthquake zone, poor engineering and low building quality made many buildings easy to break down. Few people could run out of the weak buildings and thousands died, including Imren’s girlfriend and his uncle. The disaster was so serious that people started to think about how to make homes safe.
With great effort, people worked out a creative plan to rebuild the city. Buildings will be lower—no more than three stories (楼层) high in the old city center and five to six stories in the modern one. Heavy concrete slabs (混凝土板) under the buildings will help keep them safe if the ground turns soft and wet because of an earthquake. Also, there will be more green space near the rivers, along with roads for walking and biking. Sidewalks (人行道) will be widened to help neighbors meet. All in all, the new Antakya will be nicer to live in and more resilient if earthquakes happen.
Antakya isn’t alone. Around the world, more designers think natural disasters can give them ideas about what a better city might look like. And there is a great need: climate change is making storms and other disasters worse, while millions more people are moving into cities. Rebuilding plans like this are about creating a safer, fairer, and greener place for people to live their best lives together.
12. What did people in Antakya learn from the earthquake in 2023?
A. Don’t go into weak buildings. B. Stay with family to keep safe.
C. Change ways to build homes. D. Don’t be afraid to face disasters.
13. What does the Antakya rebuilding plan include?
A. Taller buildings in the old city center.
B. More concrete slabs for its buildings.
C. Adding green space in the modern city center.
D. Building more sidewalks next to the rivers.
14. What does the underlined “more resilient” in Paragraph 4 probably mean?
A. Quieter and quickly rebuilt. B. Stronger and not easily destroyed.
C. More popular and well survived. D. More active and not badly broken.
15. What may be the best title for the text?
A. A Second Chance for Cities B. The Painful History of Antakya
C. How to Survive in Earthquakes D. Where to Rebuild Old Cities
【答案】12. C 13. B 14. B 15. A
【解析】
【导语】本文主要讲述了地震给一座古城带来重创。痛定思痛,设计师们重新规划城市建设,让城市能够更好地抵御自然灾害。让我们走进这篇文章,了解安塔基亚的重建计划。
【12题详解】
根据文章第三段“The disaster was so serious that people started to think about how to make homes safe.”,可知人们从地震中学到的是要改变建造房屋的方式,以确保安全。
【13题详解】
根据文章第四段“Heavy concrete slabs under the buildings will help keep them safe”可知,计划包括使用混凝土板。
【14题详解】
根据文章第四段语境,新的建筑计划旨在抗震,且前文提到了加固措施,“Resilient”意为“有恢复力的、适应力强的”,在此处指建筑物更坚固、不易被地震摧毁。
【15题详解】
文章首段提到设计师利用风暴后的机会重新思考重建,结尾段总结重建计划是为了创造更安全、公平和绿色的居住地。整篇文章强调的是利用灾难后的重建机会让城市变得更好,即“城市的第二次机会”。

Dink looked at his two friends. “He said he wanted me to read to make sure I didn’t get a brain injury,” Dink went on. “But I think that doctor took away the pendant! He hid it inside the bandage and made me read, so I wouldn’t see him do it!”
“____18____” Josh asked.
“I know,” Ruth said. “He knew the policemen might be looking for him, so he hid the pendant inside it, and made you take that out of the park for him.”
Dink nodded, feeling his heart racing. “Then, when he got me to the X-ray office, he took off the bandage and took the pendant out.”
“____19____” Josh said. “It was your doctor!”

文章Summary部分“Later they found Dink’s X-ray had a strange X on it.”提到:后来他们发现Dink的X光片上有一个奇怪的X。以及后文提到“And he hid the pendant in Dink’s bandage.”他把吊坠藏在了Dink的绷带里。可推知结论此处需要填入介绍“他”是谁的句子,选项E“他们发现那个人假装成医生。”符合语境,引出下文的代词“he”。

【19题详解】
文章My favorite part部分后文“It was your doctor!”提到:是你的医生!可推知结论此处得出了拿走吊坠的真正犯人是谁的结论,排除了其他人,选项B“所以不是卖热狗的人,也不是大汉斯。”符合语境。

The street where I grew up had many houses joined side by side. It was a ____21____ place for a child — always something going on and plenty of other kids to play with.

【解析】
【导语】本文讲述作者曾视邻居Joey为麻烦制造者,火灾中Joey却冒死救一家人,说明人不可貌相,善良有多种形式。
【21题详解】
句意:对于一个孩子来说,这是一个极好的地方——总有事情发生,有很多孩子一起玩。
根据“always something going on and plenty of other kids to play with”可知,这是一个适合孩子的好地方,充满乐趣,wonderful“极好的”符合语境。noisy吵闹的,modern现代的,new新的,文中未体现。
【22题详解】
句意:他们的大儿子Joey似乎总是在寻找麻烦。
根据后文“scare everyone who walked by”可知,他喜欢惹事,look for trouble是固定搭配,意为“找麻烦”。help帮助,work工作,peace和平,与语境不符。
【23题详解】
句意:我和妹妹每天放学后不得不走过那个角落。
根据上文“hang out on the corner”可知,他们常待在角落,所以作者要路过那个角落。village村庄,park公园,playground操场,与前文不符。
【24题详解】
句意:他们会跟着我们,说刻薄的话,只是希望我们反击。
根据“hoping we would fight back”可知,他们说挑衅的话意图引发冲突,mean things意为刻薄的话,符合语境。funny有趣的,joyful高兴的,confusing令人困惑的,不合逻辑。
【25题详解】
句意:“我讨厌这样,”我心想。
根据“Why do they always pick on us?”可知,作者对此感到烦恼和厌恶,hate“讨厌”符合这种负面情绪。enjoy享受,mind介意,respect尊敬,不符合语境。
【26题详解】
句意:为了避开他们,我们试着晚一站下车,但是有时他们也在那里。
根据“tried getting off... sometimes they were there too”可知,前后句意存在转折关系,努力避开却还是遇见,用but连接表示转折。because因为,so因此,or或者,逻辑不通。
【27题详解】
句意:感恩节前的一天晚上,我被玻璃破碎的声音吵醒了。
根据“woken up by”及“breaking glass”可知,是听到了破碎的声音,sound“声音”符合听觉语境。alarm指警报器,action行动, pain疼痛,不合语境。
【28题详解】
句意:我们的房子着火了!
根据“smelled smoke”及下文火灾情节可知,房子着火了,on fire意为着火。for sale出售,out of use停用,on a mess混乱,与烟味无关。
【29题详解】
句意:当他看到烟和火焰时,这个“麻烦的年轻人”来到我们已经着火的门廊上,打碎了我们的前窗,冲进屋里大喊:“着火了!出去!快点!”
根据前文“smelled smoke”及火灾常识可知,火灾伴随烟和火焰,smoke“烟”符合语境。windows窗户,neighbours邻居,thunder雷声,不是火灾直接特征。
【30题详解】
句意:当他看到烟和火焰时,这个“麻烦的年轻人”来到我们已经着火的门廊上,打碎了我们的前窗,冲进屋里大喊:“着火了!出去!快点!”
根据前文“sound of breaking glass”及为了救人需要制造声响可知,他打破了窗户,broke“打破”符合情节。cleaned清洁,closed关闭,pushed推,无法解释玻璃声且不利于救人
【31题详解】
句意:他的喊声唤醒了我和母亲。
根据前文“woken up by”及他们在睡觉可知,喊声唤醒了他们,woke“唤醒”符合逻辑。shocked震惊,scared害怕,guided引导,不合语境。
【32题详解】
句意:当我们到达角落时,我们的房子完全着火了。
根据“by the time we got to the corner”及火灾蔓延速度可知,房子已经完全被火吞噬,completely“完全”强调程度严重。suddenly突然,probably可能,easily容易,不能准确描述状态。
【33题详解】
句意:我知道如果没有Joey的大声破坏和喊叫,我们没有一个人会及时醒来。
根据“without Joey’s loud breaking and shouting”可知,这是一个否定条件句,结果应为没人能醒来,none表示全否定。all所有的,any任何,some一些,表示肯定或部分,不合逻辑。
【34题详解】
句意:烟雾会杀死我们。A 杀死;B 警告;C 帮助;D 覆盖。
根据火灾常识可知,吸入浓烟会导致死亡。killed“杀死”符合严重后果。warned警告,helped帮助,covered覆盖,不符合语境。
【35题详解】
句意:Joey冒着生命危险去救我们。
根据全文Joey救人的行为可知,他救了作者一家,save意为拯救。change改变,keep保持,support支持,不能准确表达救命之恩。

【53题详解】
句意:我从坐轮椅,到拄拐杖,再到试着走一个街区。from…to…是固定短语,意为“从……到……”,表状态、阶段的递进转换。本段讲两年前摔断腿后的康复过程,“from…to…”清晰写出康复循序渐进的阶段变化。

On the other hand, it’s a great idea to make a difference to others. I volunteer at a community centre every Saturday.

Dear Jane,
I’m sorry to know that your brother made your best artwork not so perfect and you argued with him. I know exactly how you feel!
Last week, I was trying to create a perfect birthday book for my dad about our family’s grocery store. Just then, my friend Mareya showed up and asked me to go to the park. But when we arrived there, rain started pouring down. We came back home, dripping wet. And that’s when my heart pretty much stopped. Right there, in front of the recycling bin (回收箱), was a box full of soaking-wet papers. My drawings!
“Why did my drawings get out here?” I cried.
“Umm,” my brother Indi said, “Mom asked me to recycle all the papers on the floor, so I did.”
“What?! You destroyed my gift for Dad!”
“Gift for dad? Unless…” said Mareya, “Remember those papier-mâché (纸浆) pumpkins we made before? We can cover balloons with these wet papers to make as much ‘fruit’ as we can.”
“Do you think this could work?” I asked.
“Um… Let’s try first.”
My birthday book was about the grocery store, so we decided to use balloons and the papers to make “apples”, “peaches” and “oranges”. When we finished, I cheered, “Wow! Still the best gift!”
There’s a pretty happy ending to this sad story. My dad loves his new gift so much that he keeps it right in his store.
So, dear Jane, Mareya’s “every cloud has a silver lining” way of looking at things did help. Next time you might want to keep your special things in an extra-safe place. Now I believe you know how to deal with your colored painting. How about turning it into a collage (拼图)? You can make it!

Gifts are an important part of developing strong relationships with people. But in different cultures, certain gifts may be considered unlucky or rude, and even the timing of giving a gift matters.
There are some improper gifts you should pay attention to. Gifts showing the number four or a gift of four items are unlucky in Japanese, Korean and Chinese cultures. Also, knives and scissors are not good gifts in Latin America and Asia, because these mean cutting a relationship and you are no longer friends. And certain flowers may also send wrong messages to others as they have special meanings in some cultures. For example, in countries like France, chrysanthemums (菊花) are only given when someone dies. What’s more, handkerchiefs (手帕) are fine in some places, such as Japan, but they may be a symbol of sadness or death in other countries like Italy.
So what is a proper and thoughtful gift? Anything from your home country that is difficult to get elsewhere would be good, such as a nice piece of Chinese paper-cutting. Once you have got to know someone, try to give them a present to go with their personal interests as well. If your friend enjoys football, why not get him a shirt of his favourite team?
▲ Westerners usually give gifts when meeting each other, but in Eastern cultures it is more usual to give gifts when you leave. There may also be special holiday times when people expect to receive gifts.
Gift-giving customs are different from country to country, so it is difficult to be correct in every situation. But if you learn the common rules and do some research on the customs of the places you will visit, you will not go too far wrong.
8. How does the writer tell readers about improper gifts?
A. By giving examples. B. By stating opinions.
C. By listing numbers. D. By telling stories.
9. Which of the following may be a good gift if you are to give one?
A. Four knives for a Korean classmate. B. Handkerchiefs for an Italian teacher.
C. Chinese calligraphy for an American friend. D. Chrysanthemums for a French neighbor.
10. Which sentence can be put into “ ▲ ” in Paragraph 4?
A. It’s necessary to give gifts on important holidays.
B. When to give gifts also depends on your culture.
C. When to give gifts is based on personal interests.
D. It’s common to give gifts when you visit others.
11. What is the purpose of this text?
A. To make some rules for giving gifts.
B. To remind us of cross-cultural gift customs.
C. To show how to keep good relations.
D. To compare Eastern and Western gift habits.
D
In this age of big storms, smart designers around the world are taking the opportunity to rethink what they rebuild.
Just before dawn on February 6, 2023, a 29-year-old baker named Nuri Imren woke to the sound of his sister screaming. In the Turkish city of Antakya, his family’s apartment was shaking from side to side. A minute later, he took his whole family down to the street. Many tall buildings fell around them.
A serious earthquake almost destroyed the whole city. Although the city was in a known earthquake zone, poor engineering and low building quality made many buildings easy to break down. Few people could run out of the weak buildings and thousands died, including Imren’s girlfriend and his uncle. The disaster was so serious that people started to think about how to make homes safe.
With great effort, people worked out a creative plan to rebuild the city. Buildings will be lower—no more than three stories (楼层) high in the old city center and five to six stories in the modern one. Heavy concrete slabs (混凝土板) under the buildings will help keep them safe if the ground turns soft and wet because of an earthquake. Also, there will be more green space near the rivers, along with roads for walking and biking. Sidewalks (人行道) will be widened to help neighbors meet. All in all, the new Antakya will be nicer to live in and more resilient if earthquakes happen.
Antakya isn’t alone. Around the world, more designers think natural disasters can give them ideas about what a better city might look like. And there is a great need: climate change is making storms and other disasters worse, while millions more people are moving into cities. Rebuilding plans like this are about creating a safer, fairer, and greener place for people to live their best lives together.
12. What did people in Antakya learn from the earthquake in 2023?
A. Don’t go into weak buildings. B. Stay with family to keep safe.
C. Change ways to build homes. D. Don’t be afraid to face disasters.
13. What does the Antakya rebuilding plan include?
A. Taller buildings in the old city center.
B. More concrete slabs for its buildings.
C. Adding green space in the modern city center.
D. Building more sidewalks next to the rivers.
14. What does the underlined “more resilient” in Paragraph 4 probably mean?
A. Quieter and quickly rebuilt. B. Stronger and not easily destroyed.
C. More popular and well survived. D. More active and not badly broken.
15. What may be the best title for the text?
A. A Second Chance for Cities B. The Painful History of Antakya
C. How to Survive in Earthquakes D. Where to Rebuild Old Cities

Dink nodded, feeling his heart racing. “Then, when he got me to the X-ray office, he took off the bandage and took the pendant out.”
