B Kate was ill last month and missed one whole week's school lessons.At first,she only had a small cough,but she thought it was nothing serious and kept eating cold ice cream after every meal.She also liked wearing thin coats even on cold windy days.She spent most nights staying up to finish online homework and watch short videos until midnight. Three days later,her cough turned into a bad cold with high fever and sore throat.Her parents took her to the hospital.The doctor checked her carefully and said her poor lifestyle caused her illness.The doctor gave her some medicine and made three strict rules for her:stop all cold food,sleep before 22:00 every night and take a 20-minute walk after dinner each day. Kate followed the doctor's advice strictly.She gave up ice cream and junk food,ate more apples and cabbages.One week later,her body got well little by little.Now she always tells her classmates:good daily habits are the cheapest medicine to keep away from sickness.

Let's start with the thumbs-up(竖大拇指)emoji..n many Western countries,people use it widely to show agreement or to praise a job well done.However,in some parts of the Middle East,West Africa and South America,people see it as rude,similar to giving someone the middle finger ( The OK hand sign also has many kinds of cultural meanings.In the US and Europe,it simply means "everything is fine"or "perfect".However,people in Brazil and Turkiye think it is an impolite gesture )Even more interestingly,in France,it stands for "zero"or "nothing".Clearly,this emoji's meaning truly changes a lot across different cultures! The folded hands emoji also carries different meanings.In Western cultures,many people take it as a high-five-a gesture of celebration.But in most Asian cultures,it is a way to express thanks or greet others. The crossed fingers emoji can also get you into trouble.In the UK,the US and Canada,crossing fingers is a common way to wish someone good luck.However,in Vietnam,you'd better think twice before using the gesture,as it has an unexpected negative meaning there. Understanding these cultural differences can help avoid misunderstandings when communicating across cultures. 1.In which part of the world do people think the thumbs-up is rude? 第3页 A.Asia. B.The Middle East. C.North America. D.Australia. 2.Which of the following has the most meanings according to the article? 3.What should people avoid doing when meeting someone from Vietnam? A.Using folded hands to say thanks. B.Giving the thumbs-up to praise them. C.Crossing fingers for good luck. D.Making the OK sign for perfection. 4.What is the main purpose of this article? A.To encourage people to use emojis widely B.To suggest some new ways to use emojis. C.To introduce the development of emojis. D.To explain emojis'different cultural meanings D The world culture includes not only the customs of our society,its art,music,but also everyday activities.Many people believe their traditional ways of life are under threat (and that something should be done.Yet for some,the losing of culture is a natural result of globalization()and progress. So is the globalization of culture a threat or a chance? Those who see globalization as a threat argue that societies are losing special parts of their cultures. For example,Omotik,a language spoken in East Africa,has only 50 live speakers.There are also increasing fears in China,where the losing of musical and dance traditions,as well as traditional crafts,is causing concern to many.Some argue that it is hard to find differences between London and Tokyo.Young people,whose ideas are often influenced by Western or other popular cultures,often refuse or even give up the traditions their parents grew up with. 共6页 Others focus on the advantages of globalization.They accept that Western culture is spreading,but they also point to how Western countries and many other parts of the world are being shown to world cultures.Young Americans enjoy Japanese comic magazines and watch Korean movies.Thai teenagers enjoy pop music from Hong Kong.Many argue that there are advantages to these cross-cultural exchanges and that they lead to better understandings between cultures.They say world traditions are celebrated more widely because of these.Chinese New Year,now celebrated in most big cities around the world,is just one of the many festivals that are accepted internationally. Anyway,many local organizations and governments are trying to protect their cultures.One successful example is Wales.There was a time when social pressures were killing off the Welsh language, but after years of efforts,it is now an active part of Welsh life again.Around the world,similar efforts are going on. 1.What is causing societies to lose their special parts of cultures? A.Western culture. B.Population growth. C.Globalization and progress D.Population decrease. 2.Why is it hard to tell the differences between London and Tokyo? A.People in the UK love Japanese comic. B.They are speaking the same language. C.Both of them are influenced by Chinese and American culture. D.They look similar because they may give up their own traditions. 3.What does the underlined word"they"in Paragraph 3 refer to? A.Advantages. B.Cross-cultural exchanges. C.World traditions. D.Better understandings. 4.Which of the following might be the best title for the passage? A.Culture Changes B.Threats to Culture C.Culture Protection D.Exchanges of Cultures 非选择题 (共55分) 第4页 三、听力填词（共5小题，满分5分） 请听下面一段演讲。根据所听到的内容，写出可以填入下表1~5空格处的适当单词，每空限填一词。 独白读两遍。 The best ways to leam a foreign language are do the same as 1 do.

But did you know that the same emoji can mean very different things in different cultures? This can cause misunderstandings or even trouble if you’re not careful enough. Let’s take a closer look at some emojis and their surprising cultural meanings. Let’s start with the thumbs-up (竖大拇指) emoji. In many Western countries, people use it widely to show agreement or to praise a job well done. However, in some parts of the Middle East, West Africa and South America, people see it as rude, similar to giving someone the middle finger (手指). The OK hand sign also has many kinds of cultural meanings. In the US and Europe, it simply means “everything is fine” or “perfect”. However, people in Brazil and Türkiye think it is an impolite gesture (手势). Even more interestingly, in France, it stands for “zero” or “nothing”. Clearly, this emoji’s meaning truly changes a lot across different cultures! The folded hands emoji also carries different meanings. In Western cultures, many people take it as a high-five—a gesture of celebration. But in most Asian cultures, it is a way to express thanks or greet others. The crossed fingers emoji can also get you into trouble. In the UK, the US and Canada, crossing fingers is a common way to wish someone good luck. However, in Vietnam, you’d better think twice before using the gesture, as it has an unexpected negative meaning there. Understanding these cultural differences can help avoid misunderstandings when communicating across cultures. 1．In which part of the world do people think the thumbs-up is rude? A．Asia. B．The Middle East. C．North America. D．Australia. 2．Which of the following has the most meanings according to the article? A． B． C． D． 3．What should people avoid doing when meeting someone from Vietnam? A．Using folded hands to say thanks. B．Giving the thumbs-up to praise them. C．Crossing fingers for good luck. D．Making the OK sign for perfection. 4．What is the main purpose of this article? A．To encourage people to use emojis widely. B．To suggest some new ways to use emojis. C．To introduce the development of emojis. D．To explain emojis’ different cultural meanings. D The world culture includes not only the customs of our society, its art, music, but also everyday activities. Many people believe their traditional ways of life are under threat（威胁）and that something should be done. Yet for some, the losing of culture is a natural result of globalization（全球化）and progress. So is the globalization of culture a threat or a chance? Those who see globalization as a threat argue that societies are losing special parts of their cultures. For example, Omotik, a language spoken in East Africa, has only 50 live speakers. There are also increasing fears in China, where the losing of musical and dance traditions, as well as traditional crafts, is causing concern to many. Some argue that it is hard to find differences between London and Tokyo. Young people, whose ideas are often influenced by Western or other popular cultures, often refuse or even give up the traditions their parents grew up with. Others focus on the advantages of globalization. They accept that Western culture is spreading, but they also point to how Western countries and many other parts of the world are being shown to world cultures. Young Americans enjoy Japanese comic magazines and watch Korean movies. Thai teenagers enjoy pop music from Hong Kong. Many argue that there are advantages to these cross-cultural exchanges and that they lead to better understandings between cultures. They say world traditions are celebrated more widely because of these. Chinese New Year, now celebrated in most big cities around the world, is just one of the many festivals that are accepted internationally. Anyway, many local organizations and governments are trying to protect their cultures. One successful example is Wales. There was a time when social pressures were killing off the Welsh language, but after years of efforts, it is now an active part of Welsh life again. Around the world, similar efforts are going on. 1．What is causing societies to lose their special parts of cultures? A．Western culture. B．Population growth. C．Globalization and progress. D．Population decrease. 2．Why is it hard to tell the differences between London and Tokyo? A．People in the UK love Japanese comic. B．They are speaking the same language. C．Both of them are influenced by Chinese and American culture. D．They look similar because they may give up their own traditions. 3．What does the underlined word “they” in Paragraph 3 refer to? A．Advantages. B．Cross-cultural exchanges. C．World traditions. D．Better understandings. 4．Which of the following might be the best title for the passage? A．Culture Changes B．Threats to Culture C．Culture Protection D．Exchanges of Cultures 非选择题 (共55分) 三、听力填词(共5小题，满分5分) 请听下面一段演讲。根据所听到的内容，写出可以填入下表1~5空格处的适当单词，每空限填一词。独白读两遍。 四、单词拼写与运用(共8小题，满分8分) 根据句意完成已给出首字母或汉语提示的单词，使补全后的句子语意通顺，语法正确。 1.On his tenth birthday ,he r____________many gifts. 2. We should learn different table m________ when travelling abroad. 3.We should use c_________ when we eat Chinese food. 4.When you meet your friends, you can give them a warm h_______. 5. It is impolite to ask about others’ ________ (私人的) matters. 6.The __________ (传统) of eating zongzi on Dragon Boat Festival is still kept today. 7.He is ________ (已婚的) and has two children. 8.Too much time playing computer games is (有害)to your eyes and health. 五、用所给词的适当形式填空（共10小题，满分5分） 根据句意及所给的单词完成句子，使补全后的句子语意通顺，语法正确。 1.Our teacher always tells us to put (safe)first when we play outside. 2.It is ______ (common) to see people kiss cheeks when greeting in most Asian countries. 3.He is used to ________ (walk) around the park after dinner every day . 4.Please solve all small problems ______ (proper) and carefully. 5.She smiled ______ (nice) and said hello to every person on the street. 6.The young fans can’t wait ______ (meet) their favorite sports star at the stadium. 7.Every student looks forward to ______ (enjoy) the relaxing summer vacation soon. 8.I ______ (share) interesting stories with you as soon as I get back from the mountain. 9..

It is a day to celebrate the beauty of the Chinese language and help more people around the world learn about Chinese culture. Many foreign students take part in activities like writing calligraphy, learning Chinese folk songs, and making paper cuttings on this day. For example, a 16-year-old British girl named Lily joined a Chinese calligraphy competition last year. She wrote the characters “Ping An” (Peace and Safety) on a red paper fan. She said, “I learned Chinese because I want to talk with my pen pal in Shanghai. At first, I found the characters hard to write, but as soon as I kept practicing every day, I made great progress. I also learned that red means good luck in China, so I chose a red fan for my work.” Teachers at the event said, “We hope students can understand that learning a language is not just about words. It’s also about the culture behind them. If they respect different cultures, they will find it easier to communicate with people from all over the world.” 1. When is the United Nations Chinese Language Day?(no more than 3 words) _______________________________________________________ 2. Why did Lily start learning Chinese?(no more than 11words) _______________________________________________________ 3.What does the color red mean in Chinese culture according to the passage?(no more than 4 words) __________________________________________________________________ 4. 将划线句子翻译成汉语。 ___________________________________________________________________ 5. 给短文拟一个合适的英文标题。 _________________________________________________________________ 10、 写作(共1小题，满分15分) 假如你是李华，你的英国朋友 Jack今年将作为交换生来广州学习，为了更好地适应在中国的学习生活，他来信向你询问中国习俗以及学好中文的方法。请你根据以下思维导图的提示，给他写一封回信。 注意： (1)可在思维导图内容提示的基础上适当拓展信息。 (2)文中不得出现真实校名、地名和考生的真实姓名。 (3)语句连贯，词数80左右(信的开头和结尾已给出，不计入总词数)。 Dear Jack, I am glad to hear that you are going to study in China as an exchange student this year.
