Is it a tall, thin tree or a kind of grass? To many people’s surprise, it is a kind of fast-growing grass! Bamboo grows naturally in Africa, Asia, America, and Australia. Bamboo has been used for thousands of years and in many countries. China, one of the oldest and largest producers of bamboo, has been making use of it for more than 5,000 years. In ancient times, Chinese people used it for many things, such as clothes, houses, and boats. In India, bamboo was important for traditional arts and musical instruments (乐器). In Africa, people once used bamboo for buildings, food, and even medicine. Over time, the material has become more and more popular. Even today, new advantages (优点) and uses are still being discovered and developed. As people search for a material that is good for the environment, bamboo often tops the list (名单). It gives off about 35% more O2 than a tree of similar size. It also takes in a lot of CO2. Also, bamboo grows very fast—some can grow over a meter a day! This makes it a good renewable resource (可再生资源). As a result, bamboo seems like a perfect choice for everything. It’s an excellent building material. It can be used to make soft and fast-drying clothes. It’s also strong enough to make beautiful chairs, beds, and tables. It can even be used for kitchen products that help stop bacteria (细菌). It seems as if its uses are never-ending. As scientists study bamboo more, we can see that it will help us live in a better, greener world. 根据材料内容选择最佳答案。 31. Why did the writer ask questions at the beginning of the passage? A. To explain people’s thoughts. B. To catch the readers’ attention. C. To show new research findings. D. To compare different kinds of bamboo. 32. What is Paragraph 2 mainly about? A. The history of growing bamboo in China. B. The cultural meaning of bamboo in China. C. The traditional uses of bamboo in different cultures. D. The growing areas of bamboo in different countries. 33. What does the underlined word “This” in Paragraph 4 refer to? A. The common use of bamboo. B. The rapid growth of bamboo. C. The ability of bamboo to produce O₂. D. The role of bamboo in killing bacteria. 34. According to the passage, what can bamboo be used for in the kitchen? A. To make fast-drying clothes. B. To build beautiful tables. C. To help stop bacteria. D. To produce musical instruments. 35. What does the writer think of the future of bamboo use? A. Bright. B. Uncertain. C. Worrying. D. Meaningless. 【答案】31. B 32. C 33. B 34. C 35. A 【解析】 【导语】本文介绍了竹子的本质（一种快速生长的草）、在不同文化中的传统用途、环保优势以及在现代生活中的广泛应用。 【31题详解】 文章开头通过连续提问“What is bamboo? Is it a tall, thin tree or a kind of grass?”，旨在引发读者的好奇心，从而吸引读者的注意力，引出下文对竹子的介绍。 【32题详解】 第二段分别列举了中国（衣服、房子、船）、印度（传统艺术、乐器）和非洲（建筑、食物、医药）对竹子的使用，主要讲述了不同文化背景下竹子的传统用途。 【33题详解】 第四段画线词前一句“Also, bamboo grows very fast—some can grow over a meter a day!”，“This”指代前一句内容：竹子生长速度非常快这一特点，这使得它成为可再生资源。 【34题详解】 最后一段“It can even be used for kitchen products that help stop bacteria”直接指出，竹子在厨房方面的用途是可以帮助抑制细菌。 【35题详解】 文章最后一句“we can see that it will help us live in a better, greener world”指出，作者认为竹子能帮助人类生活在更美好、更绿色的世界中，对其未来持乐观态度，选A（Bright光明的）。 D A good memory is often seen as something that comes naturally, while a bad memory as something that cannot be changed. ____36____ ◆Take an interest.

But look at them in “groups” or “chunks” repeatedly and it becomes much easier:149 217 8919 318 483. ◆Invent a story. ____39____ In experiments , people were asked to remember up to 120 words using this way. When they were tested later , they could remember about 90% of them. The test result was really amazing! ◆Take physical exercise ____40____ Exercise also lowers stress. As we know ,too much pressure is very bad for the memory. 根据材料内容，从下面五个选项中选出能填入文中空缺处的最佳选项，使短文意思通顺、内容完整，并将其标号填写在下面题号后的横线上。 A. Develop an active interest in what you want to remember. One way to make yourself more interested is to ask questions--the more,the better! B.

B 【解析】 【分析】本文讲述了好的记忆通常都是很自然形成的，不好的记忆似乎是永远无法改变的。介绍了一些方法帮助人们增强记忆力。找一个有兴趣的东西；以块为单位重复事情；创编一个小故事；做运动等方式都可以帮助提高记忆力。 【36题详解】 根据上文“A good memory is often seen as something that comes naturally, while a bad memory as something that cannot be changed.”好的记忆通常都是很自然形成的，不好的记忆似乎是永远无法改变的。下文依次有小标题“Take an interest…Repeat things in chunks…Invent a story…Take physical exercise…”找一个有兴趣的东西；以块为单位重复事情；创编一个小故事；做运动等方式方法。与之搭配的应该是：事实上，有很多帮助你改善记忆力的方法。这有一些建议给你。故选D。 【37题详解】 根据标题“Take an interest.”找一个兴趣。本部分介绍利用兴趣改善记忆的方法。与之搭配的应该是：开发一个你想记住的积极的兴趣爱好。一个让你更加感兴趣的方法是多问问题，越多越好。故选A。 【38题详解】 根据上文“Repeating things in chunks is the best way to remember things for a short time.”用块的方式重复是短时间记住东西的最好方法。根据下文“The following numbers would be impossible for most of us to remember…”下面的数字对于我们来说不可能记住。与之搭配的应该是：例如，把一个电话号码多记几秒。以组形式的数字记忆也许能帮助你记住它们。故选E。 【39题详解】 根据标题“Invent a story.”创编一个故事。本部分介绍通过编故事形式记住东西。根据下文“In experiments, people were asked to remember up to 120 words using this way.”在实验当中，人们要求用这个方式记120多个词。与之搭配的应该是：为了记住长的列表，试着把想要记住的所有东西创编一个故事。故选C。 【40题详解】 根据标题“Take physical exercise.”参加体育运动。本部分介绍通过参加体育锻炼记住东西。根据下文“Exercise also lowers stress.”运动也能减少压力。与之搭配的应该是：体育锻炼对你的记忆力有好处，因为它为你的大脑输送更多的氧气，然后让你的记忆力更好地工作。故选B。 三、完型填空（15小题，每小题1分，共15分） 先通读短文，掌握其大意，然后从A、B、C、D四个选项中选出一个可以填入相应空白处的最佳答案。 Shadow puppetry (皮影戏), which is an ancient form of storytelling, is still popular today.

C 【解析】 【导语】本文讲述皮影戏传承人刘朝堪通过创新故事和利用社交媒体，让传统艺术吸引年轻人，同时强调坚守传统根基的重要性。 【41题详解】 句意：皮影戏是一种古老的叙事艺术，至今仍流行，它两千多年前最早在中国出现。 空处需要表达皮影戏最初诞生于中国，appeared“出现”贴合历史语境；changed改变、depended依靠、continued延续，语义不通。 【42题详解】 句意：就像地球上许多濒临灭绝的动植物一样，部分传统艺术也面临消失的危机。 前文讲动植物濒临灭绝，此处是表达传统艺术处于危险之中的意思，固定搭配in danger of表示“处于……的危险中”；in need of需要、in front of在……前面、in place of代替，不符合句意。 【43题详解】 句意：就像地球上许多濒临灭绝的动植物一样，部分传统艺术也面临消失的风险。 前文讲传统艺术濒临消亡，risk“风险”符合语境；thought想法、decision决定、importance重要性，逻辑不符。 【44题详解】 句意：刘家寨皮影第六代传承人刘朝堪说：“许多年轻人仍然认为皮影戏是老式民间艺术。” 此处表达当下多数年轻人依旧持有老旧看法，still“仍然”贴合语境；firstly“首先”、hardly“几乎不”、never“从不”与后文刘朝堪创新改良皮影来吸引年轻人的行文逻辑冲突。 【45题详解】 句意：在他决定投身刘家寨皮影戏之前，他家已经经营这项手艺两百多年了。 后文写他传承皮影，deciding“决定”符合行动逻辑；stopping停止、failing失败、refusing拒绝，与后文矛盾。 【46题详解】 句意：他的一些大学同学也对家族手艺的未来心存疑虑。 后文提到同学们无法理解他的选择，doubted“怀疑”贴合同学态度；believed相信、accepted接受、created创造，与下文冲突。 【47题详解】 句意：他们无法理解他为什么会选择从事这种老旧又缺乏吸引力的艺术。 同学们疑惑他选择皮影的缘由，why用来询问原因；when何时、how怎样、where哪里，疑问逻辑不匹配。 【48题详解】 句意：刘明白年轻人为何对古老艺术提不起兴趣，这也是他把全新故事和传统叙事形式相结合的原因。 固定搭配be interested in意为“对……感兴趣”；weak虚弱的、successful成功的、rich富有的，无法与in搭配表达该含义。 【49题详解】 句意：刘明白年轻人为何对古老艺术提不起兴趣，这也是他把全新故事和传统叙事形式相结合的原因。 句中brand-new与traditional形成对比；useful有用的、lucky幸运的、perfect完美的，无对应对比逻辑。 【50题详解】 句意：熊大熊二、哪吒和喜羊羊这类热门国产动画角色，是刘吸引儿童目光的诀窍。 后文列举多部动画里的人物形象，characters“角色”贴合举例内容；examples例子、themes主题、films电影，范围宽泛不准确。 【51题详解】 句意：熊大熊二、哪吒和喜羊羊这类热门国产动画角色，是刘吸引儿童目光的诀窍。 固定搭配attract the attention of sb.表示“吸引某人的注意力”；freedom自由、development发展、growth成长，语义不通。 【52题详解】 句意：抖音这类短视频平台也成了刘传播皮影戏的新渠道。 短视频平台用来宣传、推广皮影，spread“传播”符合平台作用；learn学习、collect收集、discuss讨论，不符合文意。 【53题详解】 句意：一段皮影表演短视频能轻松在平台收获上千点赞。 短视频传播速度快，easily“轻易地”体现获赞十分容易；carefully仔细地、quietly安静地、seriously严肃地，修饰逻辑不成立。 【54题详解】 句意：这个平台确实帮他吸引更多观众来到他的戏台。 皮影戏的演出场地是theater“戏台、剧场”；cinema电影院、college大学、office办公室，和皮影表演无关。 【55题详解】 句意：“你不能动摇这项艺术的根基。”刘说，“坚守传统和创新同等重要。” 后文强调要尊重传统、守住艺术根本，shake“动摇”符合句意；protect保护、improve改善、understand理解，和语境相反。 四、语篇填空（15小题，每小题1分，共15分） 第一节 阅读短文，从方框中选择适当的词并用其正确形式填空，使短文通顺、意思完整。每空限填一词，每词限用一次。 wait give on direct time ask useless strange surprise how Some people have a very poor sense of ____56____. Unluckily I am one of them. I have visited a place many ____57____ but I may still get lost there. When I was a little girl, I was afraid to ask ____58____ the way. Now, I am no longer shy about ____59____ people for directions, but I often receive ____60____ or even wrong information. So I try not to give people wrong directions. If anyone asks me the way. I always say, “Sorry, I am a stranger here.” Once ____61____ my way to work, a man stopped me. He asked me if I could tell him the way to the Friendship Building. I ____62____ him my usual reply. But just as I walked on only a few steps, I realized that he had asked the way to my office building. However, I had no time. I was rushing to meet with someone at my office and I didn’t want to keep him ____63____. When I just got to my office, the secretary (秘书) showed the man who asked me for directions. Imagine ____64____ embarrassed I was and how ____65____ he was when we saw each other! 【答案】56. direction 57. times 58. strangers 59. asking 60. useless 61. on 62. gave 63. waiting 64. how 65. surprised 【解析】 【导语】本文的主题是方向感差的作者在上班路上被问路，因习惯性回复自己是陌生人，后来发现对方要去的正是自己的办公室，见面时双方都很尴尬的经历。 【56题详解】 句意：有些人方向感很差。固定搭配sense of direction意为“方向感”，符合语境，此处需将direct变为名词direction。 【57题详解】 句意：我去过一个地方很多次，但还是可能会在那里迷路。many修饰可数名词复数，time表示“次数”时为可数名词，符合语境。 【58题详解】 句意：当我还是个小女孩时，我害怕向陌生人问路。ask后接人作宾语，这里可用strange的名词复数strangers（陌生人），表示一类人。 【59题详解】 句意：现在，我不再羞于向别人问路了。固定搭配be shy about doing sth.表示“羞于做某事”，ask“询问”符合语境，介词about后接动词-ing形式，故填asking。 【60题详解】 句意：但我经常收到没用的甚至错误的信息。or连接并列的形容词，和wrong并列，useless“无用的”，符合语境。 【61题详解】 句意：有一次在我去上班的路上，一个男人拦住了我。固定搭配on one’s way to...意为“在去……的路上”，符合语境，应用on。 【62题详解】 句意：我给了他我惯常的回答（“我也是陌生人”）。全文叙述过去的事情，时态为一般过去时，give“给”符合语境，应用过去式gave。 【63题详解】 句意：我赶着去办公室见人，不想让他一直等。固定搭配keep sb. doing sth.意为“让某人一直做某事”，wait“等待”符合语境，应用动名词形式waiting。 【64题详解】 句意：想象一下我有多尴尬。“how+形容词/副词+主语+谓语”是感叹句结构，可用来修饰embarrassed，表示“多么尴尬”，符合语境，应用how。 【65题详解】 句意：当我们看见对方的时候想象一下我有多尴尬还有他有多惊讶。how后接形容词，修饰人用surprised，表示“感到惊讶的”，符合语境。 第二节 阅读短文，根据语篇要求填空，使短文通顺、意思完整。每空限填一词。 Many of us love taking selfies (自拍). In the past, we took selfies ____66____ lifting mobile phones. But sometimes we couldn’t get a perfect shot. That’s why the selfie stick was invented. This stick reaches one meter long in order to get more people into a picture. So it’s much easier ____67____ take selfies. Selfie sticks can be easily folded up and taken with you. ____68____ they also come with safety risks. People who try to use them when riding a bike could get hurt. In crowded places, the sticks would get in ____69____ way of other people’s pictures. Recently, many people have given up using them. Some think selfie sticks shouldn’t ____70____ allowed in public places. 【答案】66. by 67. to 68. But 69. the 70. be 【解析】 【导语】本文介绍了自拍杆的由来与便利，同时指出它存在安全隐患，不少人认为公共场所不应允许使用自拍杆。 【66题详解】 句意：过去，我们都是举着手机来自拍。by + 动名词，表示通过某种方式、借助某种手段；by lifting mobile phones 意为 “通过举起手机（的方式）”。 【67题详解】 句意：所以自拍就容易多了。固定句型It is + 形容词 + to do sth.表示“做某事是……的”， it作形式主语，真正主语是后面的不定式to take selfies。 【68题详解】 句意：自拍杆可以轻松折叠、随身携带，但它们也存在安全隐患。前一句讲自拍杆的优点，后一句讲缺点，前后是转折关系，用连词But（句首首字母大写）。 【69题详解】 句意：在人多的地方，自拍杆会妨碍别人拍照。固定搭配get in the way of …意为“妨碍……，挡住……的路”，故填the。 【70题详解】 句意：一些人认为公共场所不应该允许使用自拍杆。情态动词should的否定式shouldn’t后接动词原形；自拍杆是“被允许”，用被动语态be allowed，故填be。 五、补全对话（5小题，每小题2分，共10分） 根据下面的对话场景，在每个空白处填上一个适当的句子，使对话的意思连贯、完整。 (After class, Chen Yan goes to Alan for help. Chen Yan=C, Alan=A) C: Hi, Alan. I want to improve my English, but I don’t know what to do. ________71________? A: Why not read English magazines? I think that will help. C: Read English magazines?

How soon can I see my progress?/How long do you think it will take?/... 75. Thank you./Thanks/... 【解析】 【导语】本文主题是Chen Yan想要提高英语，向Alan寻求学习建议，Alan推荐简易英文杂志并解答她的相关疑问，是一段关于寻求并给出英语学习建议的校园课后交际对话。 【71题详解】 Chen Yan说自己想提高英语但是没有办法，后面Alan立刻提出了读英文杂志的建议。此处可用“Can you give me some advice”或“What should I do”等表示请求建议的句子衔接下文。 【72题详解】 Chen Yan表达了对生词多、看不懂的担忧，下文Alan建议可以从简单的开始。当别人表达焦虑、担心时，可用“Don’t worry./Take it easy.”宽慰对方，再给出解决方案。 【73题详解】 Chen Yan询问“Could you tell me which magazines are suitable for me?”，下文Alan直接给出了具体的杂志名称。此处表示乐意提供帮助或肯定回答，应用“Sure”或“Of course”等表达。 【74题详解】 Chen Yan说想很快看到进步，下文Alan回答需要时间，几个月后能看到进步。可知此处是在询问多快才能看到进步或者需要多长时间，应用“How soon can I see my progress”或“How long do you think it will take”或“How soon can I see my progress”衔接下文。 【75题详解】 Alan回答“You are welcome.”，这是针对感谢的标准回答。因此此处Chen Yan应该表示感谢，应用“Thank you”或“Thanks”等。 六、书面表达（20分） 76. 假如下周你所在的英语角将就“Change”这一话题进行讨论。请你回顾过去两年你所发生的变化：你是变得更加独立了还是学习更加努力了？还是……？请你根据下面的写作要点并结合自身经历，用英语写一篇短文，为活动做准备。 写作要点: 1.

Mr. Li was touched by their kindness. “This is the future of our country. I feel like I see beautiful flowers coming out,” Mr. Li said. “I am thankful for the wonderful experience.

Bamboo grows naturally in Africa, Asia, America, and Australia. Bamboo has been used for thousands of years and in many countries. China, one of the oldest and largest producers of bamboo, has been making use of it for more than 5,000 years. In ancient times, Chinese people used it for many things, such as clothes, houses, and boats. In India, bamboo was important for traditional arts and musical instruments (乐器). In Africa, people once used bamboo for buildings, food, and even medicine. Over time, the material has become more and more popular. Even today, new advantages (优点) and uses are still being discovered and developed. As people search for a material that is good for the environment, bamboo often tops the list (名单). It gives off about 35% more O2 than a tree of similar size. It also takes in a lot of CO2. Also, bamboo grows very fast—some can grow over a meter a day! This makes it a good renewable resource (可再生资源). As a result, bamboo seems like a perfect choice for everything. It’s an excellent building material. It can be used to make soft and fast-drying clothes. It’s also strong enough to make beautiful chairs, beds, and tables. It can even be used for kitchen products that help stop bacteria (细菌). It seems as if its uses are never-ending. As scientists study bamboo more, we can see that it will help us live in a better, greener world. 根据材料内容选择最佳答案。 31. Why did the writer ask questions at the beginning of the passage? A. To explain people’s thoughts. B. To catch the readers’ attention. C. To show new research findings. D. To compare different kinds of bamboo. 32. What is Paragraph 2 mainly about? A. The history of growing bamboo in China. B. The cultural meaning of bamboo in China. C. The traditional uses of bamboo in different cultures. D. The growing areas of bamboo in different countries. 33. What does the underlined word “This” in Paragraph 4 refer to? A. The common use of bamboo. B. The rapid growth of bamboo. C. The ability of bamboo to produce O₂. D. The role of bamboo in killing bacteria. 34. According to the passage, what can bamboo be used for in the kitchen? A. To make fast-drying clothes. B. To build beautiful tables. C. To help stop bacteria. D. To produce musical instruments. 35. What does the writer think of the future of bamboo use? A. Bright. B. Uncertain. C. Worrying. D. Meaningless. D A good memory is often seen as something that comes naturally, while a bad memory as something that cannot be changed. ____36____ ◆Take an interest. We all remember the things we are interested in, and always forget the ones that bore us. This explains the reason why schoolboys remember football results easily but struggle（挣扎） with dates from their history lessons! ____37____ ◆Repeat things in chunks.(块） Repeating things in chunks is the best way to remember things for a short time. ____38____ The following numbers would be impossible for most of us to remember: 1492178919318483. But look at them in “groups” or “chunks” repeatedly and it becomes much easier:149 217 8919 318 483. ◆Invent a story. ____39____ In experiments , people were asked to remember up to 120 words using this way. When they were tested later , they could remember about 90% of them. The test result was really amazing! ◆Take physical exercise ____40____ Exercise also lowers stress. As we know ,too much pressure is very bad for the memory. 根据材料内容，从下面五个选项中选出能填入文中空缺处的最佳选项，使短文意思通顺、内容完整，并将其标号填写在下面题号后的横线上。 A. Develop an active interest in what you want to remember. One way to make yourself more interested is to ask questions--the more,the better! B. Physical exercise is important for your memory, because it sends more oxygen (氧气) to your brain, and that makes your memory work better. C. To remember long lists, try inventing a story which includes all the things you want to remember. D. In fact, there is a lot that you can do to improve your memory. Here are some tips for you. E.
