【24题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“ “We were looking to see changes in light over time,” Pingle explained, “the idea is that if the planet transits the star, or passes in front of it, it would periodically cover up the star and decrease its brightness.” (“我们想观察光度随时间的变化,”平格尔解释道,“其原理是,如果行星经过恒星前方,或从恒星前面经过,它会周期性地遮挡恒星并降低其亮度。”)”可知,两名学生通过观测、分析TOI 1233恒星亮度的周期性变化识别出四颗行星。
【25题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第四段“Three of the newly discovered planets are considered as “sub-Neptunes” (其中三颗新行星属于“海王星次行星”)”以及“the fourth planet is labeled a “super-Earth” (第四颗行星被归类为“超级地球”)”可知,本段分别介绍了四颗新行星的类型、物质构成和公转周期,段落主旨是新发现行星的各项特征。
【26题详解】

(我们长期致力于太阳系外行星的研究,这两名年轻学生能找到多行星系统,可以说是____,他们实在很幸运。)”以及第三段“While studying 1233, Pingle and Wright had at least hoped to find one planet, but were overwhelmed with joy when a total of four were spotted. (在观测TOI 1233时,平格尔和赖特原本只希望能找到一颗行星,当一共发现四颗行星时,他们欣喜万分)。”可知,二人原本只期望找到一颗行星,却发现了完整多行星系统,hit the jackpot表示幸运地取得重大收获。
【27题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段“I also think it is very beneficial to high school students, since they get exposure to cutting-edge research and this prepares them quickly for a research career. (我认为这项研究对高中生大有裨益,他们能够接触前沿科研内容,快速为今后从事科研工作做好准备)。”可知,参与该研究能让高中生接触前沿科研,锻炼科研能力,为未来科研道路打好基础,培养未来天文研究者的研究素养。

【29题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“In the Ming Dynasty, some people added pictures with good luck into the bowl of sugar, and sugar painting appeared.(在明朝,一些人在糖碗里加入有吉祥寓意的图案,糖画出现了)”可知,糖画出现在明朝。故选D。
【30题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中“Since syrup may become hard if it cools, the painters have to produce the work very quickly.(因为糖浆冷却后可能会变硬,所以画师们必须很快完成作品)”可知,糖画师必须很快完成作品是为了避免糖浆变硬。故选B。
【31题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段中“However, it’s a pity that this folk art is dying recently. The sugar painting that used to be rich in shapes has become poorer and poorer because of fewer needs. What’s worse, few people seem to be willing to pass on the art except those aging sugar painters.(然而,遗憾的是,这种民间艺术最近正在消亡。由于需求减少,曾经造型丰富的糖画变得越来越贫乏。更糟糕的是,除了那些年迈的糖画师,似乎很少有人愿意传承这门艺术)”可知,作者对当今糖画的现状感到担忧。故选C。

【33题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“Dr. Chen says that to get along well with people from other cultures, we need to do more than just learn their basic customs. We must truly want to understand and respect their ways of thinking. (陈博士说,要与其他文化的人相处融洽,我们不仅要学习他们的基本习俗,还必须真诚地想要理解和尊重他们的思维方式)”可知,文化适应的关键步骤是真诚渴望理解并尊重他人的观点。故选C项。

At first, the student had a hard time, but later, by mixing Chinese and American ways of learning, he did very well. (一个中国学生在美国的故事证明了这一点。起初,这个学生很艰难,但后来通过融合中美学习方式,他做得很好)”可知,作者提到这个故事是为了证明文化适应能带来个人成长。故选C项。

Nowadays, more and more youngsters hope to become an Internet celebrity by making short-form mobile videos. Last Friday our English club had a debate on the topic.
Some students in favour of the idea thought youngsters could show their talents by making the videos. Besides, they believed it could help them gain more confidence. On the contrary, others argued that it might lead the youth to be addicted to the Internet. What's worse, some young people might feel that success could come from luck but not hard work.
Personally, I'm in favour of the first view. As long as we use the Internet properly, its advantages outweigh its disadvantages.

67:【答案】 Sumiko smiled before she had an idea. She asked for Higaki’s permission to have that plant, dashed back home, and grew it behind the cottage. She leaned close to the hanging leaves and whispered, “Grow, little flower. You don’t have to win a prize. Just grow.” She took care of her plant every morning and evening.“You are my beautiful plant,”Amy would sing softly, as she weeded and watered it.“Someday, you will bloom prettier than any flower at the festival.”Each time Amy visited her little plant, it looked greener and taller. Time seemed to fly by as the festival neared.
Sumiko got up early on the morning of the Kyoto Chrysanthemum Festival. When Amy visited her plant again, she screamed with delight. Her plant was in full bloom! It was the most beautiful rainbow chrysanthemums Amy had ever seen. Mrs. Higaki, who was passing by with flowers for the festival, stopped to see what the excitement was. Her mouth dropped open seeing the brilliant chrysanthemums. She never thought that the weak plant she threw away should have grown to be so remarkable. “It’s plain to see you will win a prize this year.” Mrs. Higaki sighed. And off they went to the festival. Finally, Amy's chrysanthemums won first prize as Mrs. Higaki had predicted.

Two high school students have identified four new planets in distant space about 200 light years from Earth, making them “the youngest astronomers” to make such a discovery.
Kartik Pingle, 16, and Jasmine Wright, 18, who both attend schools in Massachusetts, participated in the Student Research Mentoring Program (SRMP). With the help of Tansu Daylan, an MIT doctor for Astrophysics and Space Research, the students studied and analyzed data from the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS). Together they focused on Tess Object of Interest (TOI) 1233, a nearby, bright sun-like star and here they found four planets rotating (旋转) around the star. “We were looking to see changes in light over time,” Pingle explained, “the idea is that if the planet transits the star, or passes in front of it, it would periodically cover up the star and decrease its brightness.”
While studying 1233, Pingle and Wright had at least hoped to find one planet, but were overwhelmed with joy when a total of four were spotted. “I was very excited and very shocked.” Wright said. “We knew this was the goal of Daylan’s research, but to actually find a multi-planetary system, and be part of the discovering team, was really cool.”
Three of the newly discovered planets are considered as “sub-Neptunes”, which are gaseous (气态的), but smaller than the Neptune that lives in our solar system. While observing the planets, the team determined each one completes their orbit around 1233 every six to 19.5 days. However, the fourth planet is labeled a “super-Earth” for its large size and rockiness — this one orbits around the star in just under four days.
“We have long been studying planets beyond our solar system and with multi-planetary systems, the two young students are kind of hitting the jackpot. They are really blessed.” Daylan said. “The planets originated from the same disk of matter around the same star, but they ended up being different planets with different atmospheres and different climates due to their different orbits. So, we would like to understand the fundamental processes of planet formation and evolution using this planetary system.”
Daylan added that it was a “win-win” to work with Pingle and Wright on the study. “As a researcher, I really enjoy interacting with young brains that are open to experimentation and learning and have minimal bias.” he said, “I also think it is very beneficial to high school students, since they get exposure to cutting-edge research and this prepares them quickly for a research career.”
24. How did the two students identify the four planets?
A. By helping professor Tansu Daylan with the data. B. By analyzing the change of brightness of star 1233.
C. By studying Neptune that lives in our solar system. D. By interacting with other young talented brains.
25. What is the main idea of paragraph 4?
A. The features of the newly-discovered planets. B. The great efforts made by the two students.
C. The comparison between the two star systems. D. The significance of the discovery of the planet.
26. Which of the following is closest in meaning to “hitting the jackpot” in paragraph 5?
A. Making a discovery difficultly. B. Achieving the goal easily.
C. Succeeding in something luckily. D. Performing a task carefully.
27. According to the article, what benefits does the study bring?
A. It allows the scientists to work with young people without prejudice.
B. It equips future astronomers with better researching capabilities.
C. It provides more perspectives and thus boosts more discoveries.
D. It arouses students’ interest in exploring the unknown universe.
C
Sugar painting, as the name means, is a painting made of sugar. It’s the sugar for us to taste, and the painting for us to admire.
Since the Warring States Period (战国时代) , the ancient people loved sweets and developed methods of producing sugar. In the Tang Dynasty, there was huge progress in the technology of sugar making. And sugar, the precious product once only served to the emperors and princes, also went into common people’s homes. With the cultural and economic (经济的) development of Song and Yuan Dynasties, people became less interested in only tasting sweetness. In the Ming Dynasty, some people added pictures with good luck into the bowl of sugar, and sugar painting appeared.
Sugar painting is different from normal painting. Sugar painters use syrup (糖浆) as the material, a spoon as the “paintbrush”, and a smooth table as the “paper”. To make syrup, they have to make sugar hot before painting. Since syrup may become hard if it cools, the painters have to produce the work very quickly. They move the spoon full of syrup up and down, left and right. Soon a sugar painting is done.
However, it’s a pity that this folk art is dying recently. The sugar painting that used to be rich in shapes has become poorer and poorer because of fewer needs. What’s worse, few people seem to be willing to pass on the art except those aging sugar painters.
For most people, painting is a kind of art and difficult to understand. However, sugar painting has pulled the art down into people’s daily lives. Through it, we may see the spiritual support of the ancient people across centuries. Now, sugar painting has been listed as an intangible cultural heritage (非物质文化遗产) in China. Therefore, the art should be remembered, missed and passed on.
28. According to the passage, which of the following statements is TRUE?
A. People in the Warring States Period already knew how to make sugar paintings.
B. In the Tang Dynasty, sugar was still only served to the emperors and prince s.
C. Sugar painters need to heat sugar to make syrup before creating sugar paintings.
D. There are many young people learning the art of sugar painting nowadays.
29. When did sugar painting appear?
A. In the Warring States Period. B. In the Tang Dynasty.
C. In the Yuan Dynasty. D. In the Ming Dynasty.
30. Why should sugar painters make the work very quickly?
A. To show their excellent skills. B. To avoid syrup becoming hard.
C. To protect the spoon and the table. D. To reduce people’s waiting time.
31. What’s the writer’s attitude towards today’s sugar painting according to Paragraph 4?
A. Uncaring. B. Doubtful. C. Worried. D. Unclear.
D
Crossing Cultures: Navigating the Global Mosaic by Dr. Emily Chen is a great book. It helps us learn about different cultures in our global world. The book uses real stories, history facts, and ideas about people’s minds to make us think differently about culture.
First, the book talks about “cultural identity”. This means how the culture we grow up in shapes what we believe, value, and do. For example, it shows how people from East Asia, who often work as a group, and people from the West, who focus on themselves, sometimes misunderstand each other when they talk. A story about a business deal shows this: a Japanese and an American couldn’t agree because they talked in very different ways.
Next, the book discusses “cultural adaptation”. Dr. Chen says that to get along well with people from other cultures, we need to do more than just learn their basic customs. We must truly want to understand and respect their ways of thinking. A Chinese student’s story in the US proves this. At first, the student had a hard time, but later, by mixing Chinese and American ways of learning, he did very well.
The book also looks at “cultural appropriation”, which is a tricky topic. Using examples from fashion, music, and art, Dr. Chen shows us the difference between respecting a culture and using it wrongly. She wants us to think about who has power in cultural exchanges and how our actions affect others.
In short, this book is perfect for anyone who wants to understand cultural differences. It gives us useful tips for talking to people from other cultures and helps us become more open-minded. It’s a book that makes us think and learn.
32. What does the underlined word “mosaic” probably mean?
A. A single large culture. B. A mixture of different cultures.
C. A traditional cultural pattern. D. A newly-emerging cultural trend.
33. What is a key step in cultural adaptation?
A. Learning the superficial customs of a new culture.
B. Avoiding communication with people from different cultures.
C. Having a sincere desire to understand and respect other views.
D. Giving up one’s own cultural identity in different backgrounds.
34. What can we infer from the discussion about cultural appropriation in the book?
A. People should not borrow any elements from other cultures.
B. The power dynamics in cultural exchanges are often ignored.
C. Cultural symbols can be freely used without any consequences.
D. Cultural appropriation always leads to positive cultural exchanges.
35. Why does the author mention the story of the Chinese student in the US?
A. To criticize the difficulties of studying abroad.
B. To show that American education system is perfect.
C. To prove that cultural adaptation can bring personal growth.
D. To emphasize the differences between Chinese and American cultures.

67. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Sumiko worked with her mother in their vegetable garden every day. They made their living by selling the produce from their garden at the market. Each day, Sumiko carefully watered plants and pretended they were beautiful chrysanthemums (菊花), like Mrs. Higaki’s prize flowers. In her heart, she wanted to grow chrysanthemums.
“Foolish girl!” her mother lectured. “Flowers can’t be eaten!”
“But Mum, people buy flowers.”
“City people. No one in our poor village wastes money.”
Sumiko knew her mother was right. The only person in the village who made money selling flowers was Mrs. Higaki. Every year she won first prize at the Kyoto Chrysanthemum Festival. Many people whispered that Mrs. Higaki used magic to grow her chrysanthemums. How else could she win first prize twenty years in a row?
Sumiko admired Mrs. Higaki. If she could sell flowers like Mrs. Higaki, she would be able to buy things for her mother. But chrysanthemums were expensive to start, and Sumiko could only dream about growing them.
One day, Sumiko visited Mrs. Higaki’s garden.“Mrs. Higaki, I wish I could grow beautiful chrysanthemums and win a prize like you,” said Sumiko.
“You! Win a prize growing flowers?”Mrs. Higaki laughed. “Do you know what’s required to grow such flowers? The secret to growing them has been passed down to me from past generations of my family. And you-a child-believe you can compete against me? Stick to vegetables, child. Leave flowers to those who know the secret of flowers.”
Mrs. Higaki returned to her gardening, ignoring the sad look on Sumiko’s face. Then she pulled up a plant.
“What’s that?” Sumiko asked.
“A plant in poor condition -a waste of my time,”Mrs. Higaki said, throwing the plant into the field beside the garden.
注意:
1. 续写词数应为 150 左右;
2.开头已给出。
Sumiko smiled before she had an idea.
