It’s a super famous Chinese story. When new games or cartoons about it come out, more people around the world get interested in this classic story. The story was written long ago. It’s about the monk Tang Sanzang. He took a long journey with his followers, like the Monkey King Sun Wukong. They faced lots of dangers to find important Buddhist books. This story is so popular! It has been made into many movies and TV shows. Also, it gives us some really interesting literary idioms that show how brave and clever Wukong is. The Golden Gaze of Fiery Eyes Once, Wukong made trouble in Heaven. As a punishment (惩罚), he was locked in a hot stove (炉子). After that, he got a special ability—“the golden gaze of fiery eyes”. With this, he can see monsters (怪物) that hide themselves. Today, we use this phrase for someone who’s really good at finding lies or bad things. For example, Mum has “the golden gaze of fiery eyes”. She always ▲ . 72 Transformations The Monkey King learned “72 Transformations” from Master Puti. He could turn into a bird, a tree, or even a temple! Now, we use “72 Transformations” to talk about someone who can fit in well in different situations. Riding the Clouds and Driving the Mist In Journey to the West, Wukong has a magic cloud called Jindouyun. With it, he can travel far quickly. This phrase first described Wukong’s magic flight. Now, it means moving very fast. For example, if a horse runs very fast, we can say, “This horse looks like it is riding the clouds and driving the mist!” These fun phrases from Journey to the West help us see how amazing traditional Chinese stories are. Let’s keep exploring them! 19. What does the underlined word “it” refer to? A. A new game. B. Journey to the West. C. A cartoon. D. A TV show. 20. Which sentence is the most proper for ▲ in Paragraph 3? A. plans fun family trips during holidays B. reminds me to wear warm clothes in winter C. helps me pick the best clothes for school events D. finds out when I hide my poor test scores from her 21. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage? A. New films about Journey to the West make fewer people interested in the story. B. Wukong got the golden gaze of fiery eyes after learning from Master Puti. C. We can use “72 Transformations” to describe someone good at finding lies. D. The magic cloud Jindouyun lets Wukong travel far in a short time. 22. What does the subheading (小标题) “Riding the Clouds and Driving the Mist” probably mean in Chinese? A. 云消雾散 B. 吞云吐雾 C. 云遮雾绕 D. 腾云驾雾 【答案】19. B 20. D 21. D 22. D 【解析】 【导语】本文介绍了中国经典名著《西游记》，分别讲解了“火眼金睛”“七十二变”“腾云驾雾”三个源自孙悟空神通的短语，介绍它们的来历以及如今在生活中的用法，展现了中国传统故事的魅力。 【19题详解】 根据第一段前两句“Have you heard about Journey to the West? It’s a super famous Chinese story.”可知，文章主要在介绍《西游记》。第三句中提到“关于它（it）的新游戏或卡通片问世”，这里的“it”指代前文提到的核心话题《西游记》（Journey to the West）。 【20题详解】 根据第三段中“Today, we use this phrase for someone who’s really good at finding lies or bad things.”可知，“火眼金睛”现在用来形容善于发现谎言或坏事的人。D选项“发现我何时向她隐瞒了糟糕的考试成绩”符合“发现谎言/坏事”的语境，而 A、B、C 选项均与此含义无关。 【21题详解】 A项与第一段“more people around the world get interested”（更多人感兴趣）相反；B项错误，根据第三段可知“火眼金睛”是在炉子里惩罚后获得的，而第四段提到“七十二变”才是跟菩提祖师学的；C项错误，“七十二变”形容适应不同环境，善于识破谎言的是“火眼金睛”；D项与第五段“With it, he can travel far quickly.”（有了它，他可以很快地远行）意思一致。 【22题详解】 根据第五段描述“Wukong has a magic cloud…travel far quickly…described Wukong’s magic flight”可知，该短语描述的是孙悟空驾筋斗云飞行的情景。结合中国传统文化常识，对应中文成语为“腾云驾雾”。A项意为云雾消散，B项常指吸烟，C项意为云雾遮挡，均不符合语境。 C Slides (滑梯) are simple but always fun. All you need to do is climb up to the top and slide down. But do you know that there is science behind this simple playground equipment (设备)? ① You climb up the slide and sit down. You are ready to go. Are you sliding down? No, not yet. Things stay still (静止的) unless something makes them move. It is Newton’s first law. So you have to give yourself a push to start the journey down. ② Now you are sliding down. Do you feel you are slowing down a bit? When two things rub (摩擦) against each other, they cause friction (摩擦力). Without friction, you will slide down faster and faster to the bottom. ③ At the bottom of the slide, you come to a full stop. Your feet touch the ground and add extra (额外的) friction. Newton’s first law also says moving things keep moving unless something makes them stop. So, if you do not use your feet, you’ll fly off the slide. Isaac Newton said what goes up must come down. He was talking about gravity. Slides work because of gravity. But that is not all. 23. Which picture explains why you slow down a bit when sliding down? A. B. C. D. 24. What will happen if you do not use your feet at the bottom of the slide? A. You will stay still. B. You will stop at once. C. You will add extra friction. D. You will slide uncontrollably. 25. What is the best title for the passage? A. Fun with a Slide B. Science behind a Slide C. Newton’s First Law D. Secrets of Gravity 【答案】23. B 24. D 25. B 【解析】 【导语】本文以滑滑梯的完整过程为例，讲解了重力、摩擦力与牛顿第一定律在滑滑梯过程中的科学原理，揭秘简单滑梯背后蕴含的物理知识。 【23题详解】 表格右侧第二部分“When two things rub against each other, they cause friction. Without friction, you will slide down faster and faster.”指出，滑下时减速是因为“摩擦力”的存在。B图正确体现了这个原理。 【24题详解】 表格右侧第三部分“So, if you do not use your feet, you’ll fly off the slide.”指出，如果不利用脚增加摩擦力停下，就会“飞出去”（即不受控制地滑出）。 【25题详解】 开篇点明滑梯背后蕴含科学原理，全程围绕下滑全过程，讲解牛顿第一定律、重力、摩擦力在滑梯运动中的作用。B项“滑梯背后的科学”，精准概括全文核心主题。 D 第二节：（共5题，计5分） 阅读还原（有一项多余） Reading is a lifelong journey.

Making 53. my 54. learned 55. embarrassed 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文，讲作者第一次去法国因不懂当地餐桌礼仪闹出尴尬，由此体会到文化差异，也学会了在尊重当地习俗的同时不用局促于自身文化。 【46题详解】 句意：那是我第一次到访这个国家，所以我心里很忐忑。“it’s one’s first time to do sth”是固定句型，表示“某人第一次做某事”，此处需将方框内的基数词one变为序数词first。 【47题详解】 句意：我完全不懂当地的基本礼仪。“basic manners”是“基本礼仪”的固定搭配，这里要把方框里的manner变为复数manners。 【48题详解】 句意：不过幸运的是，那里的大多数人看起来都很友善。用它修饰整个句子来承接转折，缓解了前文作者的焦虑感，此处需将名词luck变为副词luckily，放句首首字母需大写。 【49题详解】 句意：我正吃得起劲，突然感觉到有好多道目光落在我身上。全文用一般过去时叙事，所以把feel变成过去式felt。 【50题详解】 句意：餐厅里的每个人都惊讶地看着我，眼神怪怪的。be surprised to do“吃惊地做某事”是固定搭配，这里把名词surprise变成形容词surprised。 【51题详解】 句意：我暗自琢磨，刚才是做了什么不合适的事吗？用来修饰不定代词anything，此处表达“不合适的”含义”，此处把形容词proper变成其反义词improper。 【52题详解】 句意：在法国吃饭时发出噪音是很失礼的行为。这里用make的动名词形式making作主语，放句首首字母需大写。 【53题详解】 句意：只有待在我自己的空间里，我才能随心所欲按自己的习惯吃饭。这里填方框里I的形容词性物主代词my，限定“own space”。 【54题详解】 句意：从这次经历中，我明白了文化差异无处不在。这里把方框里的learn变成过去分词learned，和前面的have构成现在完成时，强调这次经历给作者带来的、从困惑到释然的长久感悟。 【55题详解】 句意：没必要因为我们自己的文化感到紧张不安。此处把动词embarrass变成形容词embarrassed，既对应了作者开篇的忐忑、被注视后的窘迫，也点出了全文的核心感悟——不用因文化差异而自我局促。 Ⅶ. 任务型阅读： 阅读下面短文，根据短文内容，完成下列各题。 International Paper Cut Art Competition (比赛) To further develop the culture of paper cut art, to help the students become more creative, and to spread local cultures through the art, we invite middle school students from all over the world to take part in the competition. · Size: The size of each entry (参赛作品) mustn’t be larger than B2-size (51.5cm×72.8cm) . · Cost: ¥30 each person. · Deadline: All entries must be sent to us before May 31st, 2024.

When new games or cartoons about it come out, more people around the world get interested in this classic story. The story was written long ago. It’s about the monk Tang Sanzang. He took a long journey with his followers, like the Monkey King Sun Wukong. They faced lots of dangers to find important Buddhist books. This story is so popular! It has been made into many movies and TV shows. Also, it gives us some really interesting literary idioms that show how brave and clever Wukong is. The Golden Gaze of Fiery Eyes Once, Wukong made trouble in Heaven. As a punishment (惩罚), he was locked in a hot stove (炉子). After that, he got a special ability—“the golden gaze of fiery eyes”. With this, he can see monsters (怪物) that hide themselves. Today, we use this phrase for someone who’s really good at finding lies or bad things. For example, Mum has “the golden gaze of fiery eyes”. She always ▲ . 72 Transformations The Monkey King learned “72 Transformations” from Master Puti. He could turn into a bird, a tree, or even a temple! Now, we use “72 Transformations” to talk about someone who can fit in well in different situations. Riding the Clouds and Driving the Mist In Journey to the West, Wukong has a magic cloud called Jindouyun. With it, he can travel far quickly. This phrase first described Wukong’s magic flight. Now, it means moving very fast. For example, if a horse runs very fast, we can say, “This horse looks like it is riding the clouds and driving the mist!” These fun phrases from Journey to the West help us see how amazing traditional Chinese stories are. Let’s keep exploring them! 19. What does the underlined word “it” refer to? A. A new game. B. Journey to the West. C. A cartoon. D. A TV show. 20. Which sentence is the most proper for ▲ in Paragraph 3? A. plans fun family trips during holidays B. reminds me to wear warm clothes in winter C. helps me pick the best clothes for school events D. finds out when I hide my poor test scores from her 21. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage? A. New films about Journey to the West make fewer people interested in the story. B. Wukong got the golden gaze of fiery eyes after learning from Master Puti. C. We can use “72 Transformations” to describe someone good at finding lies. D. The magic cloud Jindouyun lets Wukong travel far in a short time. 22. What does the subheading (小标题) “Riding the Clouds and Driving the Mist” probably mean in Chinese? A. 云消雾散 B. 吞云吐雾 C. 云遮雾绕 D. 腾云驾雾 C Slides (滑梯) are simple but always fun. All you need to do is climb up to the top and slide down. But do you know that there is science behind this simple playground equipment (设备)? ① You climb up the slide and sit down. You are ready to go. Are you sliding down? No, not yet. Things stay still (静止的) unless something makes them move. It is Newton’s first law. So you have to give yourself a push to start the journey down. ② Now you are sliding down. Do you feel you are slowing down a bit? When two things rub (摩擦) against each other, they cause friction (摩擦力). Without friction, you will slide down faster and faster to the bottom. ③ At the bottom of the slide, you come to a full stop. Your feet touch the ground and add extra (额外的) friction. Newton’s first law also says moving things keep moving unless something makes them stop. So, if you do not use your feet, you’ll fly off the slide. Isaac Newton said what goes up must come down. He was talking about gravity. Slides work because of gravity. But that is not all. 23. Which picture explains why you slow down a bit when sliding down? A. B. C. D. 24. What will happen if you do not use your feet at the bottom of the slide? A. You will stay still. B. You will stop at once. C. You will add extra friction. D. You will slide uncontrollably. 25. What is the best title for the passage? A. Fun with a Slide B. Science behind a Slide C. Newton’s First Law D. Secrets of Gravity D 第二节：（共5题，计5分） 阅读还原（有一项多余） Reading is a lifelong journey.
