He was used to European city life, but everything in the eastern city of Hangzhou seemed different. The local language was impossible for him to understand, and he didn’t dare to go out by himself. His shyness was so serious that he spent the first two weeks alone in his small apartment. “I thought I made a terrible choice to come here,” he told his sister on the phone. Everything changed one rainy afternoon. Antonio got lost in an alley (小巷) near West Lake. An old local woman saw him looking at his phone helplessly. She smiled warmly and used her body language and broken English to direct him back to the main road. Her kindness gave him so much warmth that he decided to hold on to his dream of living in China. After that day, Antonio started to memorize some simple Chinese words every day. He learned how to ask for directions politely and how to order food in local restaurants. He also realized that he had been too silent — people here were willing to help if he just dared to ask. Now, Antonio has lived in China for two years. He makes a product that mixes Italian art with Chinese materials. His works have been widely shown in local museums. “I used to fail many times,” he said. “But if I had given up, I would have missed this beautiful journey.” 1.

As a boy, Xu loved reading geography books. At fifteen, he failed the imperial examination (科举考试) but did not give up. After his father died, he worked on the family farm. In 1608, he started his lifelong travels. He visited over 21 provinces and cities of today’s China. His long trips hurt his feet badly. By the time he reached Yunnan, he could no longer walk. Even so, he kept writing. In Yunnan, he finished the main part of The Travel Notes of Xu Xiake (《徐霞客游记》). He also wrote Records of Chicken Foot Mountain (《鸡足山志》). Later, some local officials sent a carriage (马车) to take him back home. After returning home, he continued working on his travel notes. In 1641, he passed away. Xu Xiake learned a lot about geography and geology (地质学) during his travels. He went to many faraway places in the southwest of China and wrote down what he saw. After he died, other people put his notes together and made the famous book The Travel Notes of Xu Xiake. Xu Xiake was not only a great travel writer.

A. b → a → c → d B. a → b → d → c C. b → c → a → d D. c → a → b → d D Can you imagine a world without paper? One hundred years ago, many people would have said that was impossible. But today, scientists have proved (证实) that guess was wrong. In ancient China, paper was first made from natural things like bamboo and tree bark. This great idea spread to the rest of Asia, then to Europe, and finally to the rest of the world. For hundreds of years, paper was the main thing used for writing, drawing, and printing. But in the 21st century, we are seeing a quiet change. More and more people are choosing to read on screens instead of on paper. E-books, online news, and digital files (数字文档) have become part of our daily life. A recent study showed that over 60% of teenagers have not read a real book in the past year. Does this mean paper will completely disappear? Probably not. Usually, different things are used for different needs. Paper still has its good sides. It is nicer to our eyes, gives a special feeling of warmth that screens cannot copy, and does not need electricity or Wi-Fi. Many people still feel proud when holding a real book. Some European countries have seen a surprising return of paper products in recent years. Local bookstores are opening again. Young people are starting to enjoy the experience of turning real pages. This change has also affected (影响) the Asian market, including China and Japan. The future of paper may not be as bad as some people thought. Just as radio did not disappear when television was invented, paper may continue to live together with digital technology. The best choice for the future might be a balance between both. 12. What does the recent study show about teenagers? A. Most of them have never used paper. B. More than half have not read a real book in the past year. C. They like to read on paper screens. D. They have invented a new kind of material. 13. What is one good side of paper mentioned in the passage? A. It is easier to carry than a phone. B. It can connect to the internet. C. It is nicer to our eyes. D. It can change its color. 14. What does the writer mean by saying “paper may continue to live together with digital technology”? A. Paper will completely disappear soon. B. Digital technology will be forgotten. C. Both paper and digital devices have their own uses. D. Paper is better than digital devices in every way. 15. What is the best title for this passage? A. The Long History of Paper B. Paper: A Useful Material for Reading C. Paper and Digital Screens: Which One Will Win? D. Paper: A Dead Material or a Living Tradition? 第二节（共5小题；每小题1分，满分5分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有一项为多余选项。 Yu Opera, also known as Henan Opera, is one of China’s most famous traditional operas. 16 Its music comes from old songs in Henan Province, and the main instrument, the bangzi, makes it lively and strong. There are four main roles: Sheng, Dan, Jing, and Chou. Stories are full of love, bravery, and kindness, often from history or daily life of farmers. 17 A classic example is Hua Mulan, a woman who dares to fight for her family. She shows great courage. Most stories end happily, teaching people to be brave and kind. 18 Being different from Beijing Opera, it uses the language that local people use daily, so it feels much closer to common people’s lives. In the past, it was loved mostly by elderly villagers. But now, with TV and the internet, more young people in cities are starting to like it. 19 Its influence is growing. Yu Opera is not just something fun — it’s an important part of Chinese culture. 20 Let’s hope this beautiful art keeps shining for many more years! A.

In a small town in China, a group of skilled workers 31 (produce) these traditional bells for hundreds of years. Their products are widely 32 (know) for their clear and beautiful sound. The local material used for making bells is bronze, which is made 33 copper (铜) and tin (锡). Workers first melt the metal at a very high temperature. Then, they pour the liquid metal (金属液) 34 a special mold (模具). Once the metal cools down and becomes hard, the bell is taken out of the mold. After that, workers 35 (care) polish the surface and test the sound. A well-made bell can produce a deep, lasting tone. 36 makes these bells special is that they are completely made by hand. Each worker has spent years 37 (learn) the craft. As one worker said, “No matter how modern technology develops, some things are still best done with hands and 38 (patient).” The production process is long and tiring. 39 , the workers take great pride in their work. They believe that every bell carries not only the material but also the 40 (warm) of human touch (人情味).

It all started last November, when Chinese travelers to Egypt (埃及) began posting photos of their history textbooks. In these pictures, the book covers — printed with pyramids (金字塔) and the Sphinx (狮身人面像) — sat right next to the real ancient wonders. Soon, others joined in with even more creativity: they started hiding their books, putting them into small gaps between stones, for other travelers to find. This fun trend has taken off, with the topic reaching hundreds of millions of views on Xiaohongshu, showing just how much people love it. The trend quickly spread to Europe. In the UK, some students hid their English textbooks near Big Ben, the famous clock tower. When other visitors found these books, they often wrote messages inside, sharing wishes for their families’ health, world peace, and more. Similar book “treasure hunts” (寻宝游戏) have appeared at the Colosseum in Italy (罗马斗兽场) and France’s Louvre Museum (卢浮宫). One student who left her English book at the Louvre said the experience meant so much to her. “Knowledge that used to stay in my classroom has now become something real and unforgettable,” she explained. Social media and local businesses have helped the trend grow fast. In London, a Chinese restaurant near Big Ben even offered free drinks and extra textbooks to anyone joining the activity. Back home in China, a similar trend has been popular in recent years. More young people are traveling with their textbooks to famous sights (名胜古迹) across the country. This special way of traveling helps them connect more deeply with their own culture and history — and sometimes even brings unexpected surprises. 41. When and where did the “textbook travel” trend start? 42. What did people write in the found textbooks in the UK? 43. How did a student describe her experience at the Louvre? 44. What did a Chinese restaurant near Big Ben offer? 45. What can young people learn from textbook travel in China? 第二节 写作（满分20分） 假如你是李华，你的加拿大笔友Anna即将作为交换生来中国学习，入住当地接待家庭。她给你发邮件倾诉自己的焦虑，请你给她回一封邮件安慰她，并针对她的烦恼给出具体、可行的建议。 Anna 的烦恼： 1．不会使用筷子，担心用餐时尴尬； 2．不了解中式社交礼仪，害怕交流不礼貌； 3．不熟悉中国家庭文化，担心无法融入接待家庭。 写作要求： 1．包含安慰话语和应对烦恼的具体建议； 2．语言通顺，要点齐全； 3．词数100左右，开头结尾已给出，不计入总词数。 参考词汇：exchange student 交换生, manners 礼仪， host family 接待家庭 Dear Anna, I’m so excited to hear that you’re coming to China!
