Are you having a hard time ____11____ all of them? Well, perhaps you can try out the Method of Loci. “Loci” means “locations” in Latin. When you use this method, you ____12____ a place in your mind, like your house or school. You then put words or numbers in different places inside it. As you walk through this place in your mind, you can recall all the ____13____ you put there. Why does it work? Because people are better at remembering ____14____ than words or lists. You can try remembering π (3.141592653) using the Method of Loci. The first ____15____ is to imagine a home. The house number is 314. On the doorstep, there is one box. You pick it up and find that it has come from your 59-year-old uncle. Now, you open the door. There, you see ____16____ welcome mats (门垫). Six pairs of shoes have been placed on them. On the wall, there are five pegs (挂钩) with three coats hanging off them. What about a long ____17____? You can imagine where each thing goes inside your fridge. When you go shopping, just “look” inside your “____18____” and take what you need.

B 13. B 14. D 15. D 16. A 17. C 18. C 19. A 20. C 【解析】 【导语】本文主要介绍了一种名为“位置记忆法”的记忆技巧。通过在脑海中想象熟悉的地点，并将需要记忆的信息放置其中，能帮助人们轻松记住单词、数字或购物清单等。 【11题详解】 句意：你是否很难记住它们？ 根据后文介绍的“位置记忆法”可知，此处讨论的是记忆生词的困难，可知remembering表示“记住”符合语境。pronouncing发音，translating翻译，understanding理解，均不符合主题。 【12题详解】 句意：当你使用这种方法时，你在脑海中创造一个地方，比如你的家或学校。 根据“a place in your mind”可知，是在脑海中构建或想象出一个地方，create表示“创造”符合语境。believe相信，fight抗争，invent发明（多指发明实物、机器，不搭配虚拟空间），均不匹配。 【13题详解】 句意：当你在脑海中走过这个地方时，你可以回想起你放在那里的所有信息。 根据前文“put words or numbers”可知，单词或数字属于信息（information），可知information符合语境。其他选项不能准确概括单词和数字。 【14题详解】 句意：因为人们更擅长记住地点而不是单词或列表。 根据前文“‘Loci’ means ‘locations’”以及在脑海中想象一个地方的做法，可知这种方法有效是因为人们对地点记忆更深刻。places表示“地点”符合句意。events事件，news新闻，tools工具符，与“位置记忆法”的核心原理无关。 【15题详解】 句意：第一步是想象一个家。 根据后文详细描述的想象过程，可知这里是在介绍使用该记忆法的第一步，step表示“步骤”符合语境。case案例，mistake错误，rule规则，不符合介绍操作流程的语境。 【16题详解】 句意：在那里，你看到两块迎宾地毯。 根据前文“remembering π（3.141592653）”以及已经出现的数字314、1、59，可知接下来的数字应该是two，对应两块地毯。three，four，five不符合圆周率的数字顺序。 【17题详解】 句意：一份长长的购物清单怎么样？ 根据后文“When you go shopping”可知，此处举例的是去购物时需要记住的购物清单。shopping list表示“购物清单”符合句意。email address邮箱地址，phone number手机号，word list单词表，不匹配购物场景。 【18题详解】 句意：当你去购物时，只需“看”一下你的“脑海”并拿走你需要的东西。 根据前文“in your mind”可知，这种记忆法是在脑海中进行的，所以购物时是回想脑海中的画面。mind表示“脑海”符合句意。car汽车，hand手，kitchen厨房，逻辑不连贯。 【19题详解】 句意：记忆比赛的世界纪录保持者经常说，任何人都可以学习并使用位置记忆法，成为“记忆高手”。 根据语境，这种记忆方法是任何人都可以去学习和掌握的，learn表示“学习”符合语境。suggest建议，finish完成，decide决定，无法搭配方法。 【20题详解】 句意：你准备好尝试这种方法了吗？ 根据后文“Find out whether it can help you...”可知，作者是在鼓励读者去尝试，固定搭配be ready to do sth.（准备好做某事）符合语境。ready表示“准备好的”符合用法。be able to do能够做（前面已有 can，重复冲突），afraid 害怕，used习惯，语义不符。 四、阅读理解（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 请认真阅读下列材料，从材料后各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 A Something weird is going on!

It not only brings great fun but also helps build teamwork and improve physical health. However, since it involves running, jumping and ball-handling, we need to play it safely to avoid common injuries. Here are some important tips to ensure safe and enjoyable basketball playing. ● First, always warm up before playing. Do stretches (伸展) and light runs for 5-10 minutes to relax your muscles—this reduces the risk of sprains (扭伤). ● Second, wear proper clothes: basketball shoes to prevent slipping (滑倒), and knee pads (护膝) if you’re new. ● Third, follow the game rules. Don’t push or hit other players, as this can cause harm. ● Fourth, take breaks when tired. Playing for too long without rest makes your body weak and more likely to get hurt. Remember, safety always comes first in any sport. By following these simple but useful tips, you can fully enjoy playing basketball with your classmates and friends while staying healthy. After all, basketball isn’t just about scoring points or winning games—it’s about sharing happy moments and keeping an active lifestyle together. 24. What can basketball help middle school students build? A. Teamwork. B. Strength. C. Speed. D. Patience. 25. Which is a safe way to play basketball? A. Wearing slippers while playing. B. Jumping warm-up before the game. C. Taking breaks when feeling tired. D. Pushing others to get the ball. 26. What does the underlined sentence in the last paragraph want to tell us? A. Winning basketball game is not necessary at all. B. The true meaning of basketball is more important than competition. C. Middle school students should play basketball with friends. D. An active lifestyle can only be gotten by playing basketball. 【答案】24. A 25. C 26. B 【解析】 【导语】本文介绍了打篮球的好处，并提供了一些建议来确保安全。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。根据“It not only brings great fun but also helps build teamwork and improve physical health.”可知，打篮球有助于建立团队精神。故选A。 【25题详解】 细节理解题。根据“Fourth, take breaks when tired.”可知，感到疲劳时适当休息是正确的做法，故选C。 【26题详解】 词句猜测题。根据“After all, basketball isn’t just about scoring points or winning games—it’s about sharing happy moments and keeping an active lifestyle together.”可知，毕竟，篮球不仅仅是得分或赢得比赛——它是关于分享快乐时刻和保持积极的生活方式，这一句话强调了篮球的真谛比竞争更重要。故选B。 C While I was looking at the villagers, Mr. Hamel said to us in the same gentle voice, “Children, an order from Berlin asks that only German be taught in Alsace (法国阿尔萨斯大区). A new teacher will arrive tomorrow. This is your last French lesson.” These words hit me hard. Those terrible people had made it my last French lesson! But I had hardly learned anything. I wished I could go back in time and make up for all those lost hours and lessons. I understood why Mr. Hamel had put on his best coat and why the villagers were sitting at the back of the room. They, too, wished they could have attended school more often. They wanted to thank our teacher for his forty years of work and to show their respect for the country. I was lost in these thoughts when I heard my name called. It was my turn to recite (背诵). I wished I could recite the rule of participles (分词) confidently, but I failed. I stood there holding onto my desk, unable to lift my head. “I won’t say bad words to you, my little Franz,” Mr. Hamel said. “You must be feeling bad. That’s how it goes. We always say, ‘I have time. I’ll learn it tomorrow.’ And now you see, tomorrow has come. It’s a great misfortune (不幸) that we always put off learning. Now people will ask, ‘How can you say you are French? You don’t even know how to read or write your own language.’ You are not the only one to blame for this, my poor Franz. We all have good reason to blame ourselves. Your parents would rather have you work in the fields to make a bit more money. I sent you to water my garden quite a few times. And when I wanted to go fishing, didn’t I give you the day off?” Mr. Hamel went on. Finally, he spoke of the French language. He called it the most beautiful language in the world and asked us never to forget it. “When a country holds on to its language, it’s like holding the key to its freedom (自由).” he said. 27. How did Franz feel when he heard the news at first? A. Happy and relaxed. B. Worried and afraid. C. Excited and lucky. D. Surprised and sad. 28. What did Mr. Hamel try to tell Franz? A. It’s never too early to learn our own language. B. We should help parents make more money. C. French is the most beautiful language in the world. D. Reading is as important as writing when learning French. 29. What does the underlined word “blame” mean in Chinese? A. 怀疑 B. 责备 C. 鼓励 D. 欣赏 30. .Which of the following can be the best title of the passage? A. The Last Lesson B. The Key to Freedom C. The Most Beautiful Language D. My French Teacher 【答案】27. D 28. A 29. B 30. A 【解析】 【导语】本文主要讲述了Franz在最后一节法语课的表现以及Hamel老师给学生们讲的一些话。 【27题详解】 推理判断题。根据“These words hit me hard. Those terrible people had made it my last French lesson!”及“I wished I could go back in time and make up for all those lost hours and lessons.”可知，听到这个消息的时候，他感到震惊和难过，故选D。 【28题详解】 推理判断题。根据“We always say, ‘I have time. I’ll learn it tomorrow.’… It’s a great misfortune that we always put off learning.”可知，Mr. Hamel试图告诉Franz不要总是拖延学习，要珍惜学习时间，学习母语永远不嫌晚。故选A。 【29题详解】 词句猜测题。根据“You are not the only one to blame for this, my poor Franz. We all have good reason to blame ourselves.”可知，总是有许多指责自己的理由，所以划线单词表示“责备”，故选B。 【30题详解】 最佳标题题。根据“A new teacher will arrive tomorrow. This is your last French lesson.”可知，全文以“最后一节法语课”为线索展开描述，Hamel老师在这节课给学生们讲了一些话，给学生们一些启发，所以A选项“最后的一课”符合本文标题，故选A。 D COME TO WIN PRIZES THAT MONEY CANNOT BUY If you love trains, railways or enjoy designing things, have a try at one of these great competitions.

Have you ever stood in the middle of an untidy house, looking at the books and magazines around? You have the thought of tidying them up, but you give up before you start. Well, you are not alone. But luckily, I have found some nice ways to make myself willing to do the housework. Have less stuff (物品) Reducing (减少) the number of the things is a good way to make house cleaning easier. Every few months, I throw away some things we don’t need or use. It could be old clothes that no longer fit or books that I have already read and won’t pick up again. Fewer things make the house tidier and easier to clean. Do a bit each day Cleaning the whole house without a break can be really difficult, so I do a little each day. Monday could be the day to sweep the floors, Tuesday to make the bed, Wednesday to clean the bathroom, and so on. When the weekend comes, I can enjoy my free time watching a film or reading a good book instead of spending hours cleaning. Start with the easiest task When there’s a long list of housework, it can be hard to know where to begin. If so, I will start with the easiest task. When I complete the easiest task successfully, it will give me a sense of achievement. In this way, I will be more willing to go on with the rest of the housework. Make housework interesting Who says housework has to be boring? I’ve found that adding a little fun can make a big difference. I love listening to music and cleaning at the same time. As the music plays, I find myself dancing around. Time flies by and before I know it, the house is clean. I feel excited at the same time. It’s a win-win situation. In short, housework doesn’t have to be something you hate. By using these ways, you can make it easier, or more enjoyable. You might even surprisingly find that you don’t mind cleaning at all. Making yourself willing to do the housework Introduction Cleaning seems like an endless job and you are not the ____51____ one who wants to give it up. ____52____ to make yourself willing to do the housework Having less stuff ·Having ____53____ things at home means less to clean. ·Every several months, I throw away something ____54____ or unnecessary.

Your ideas Besides the ways mentioned, can you think of another creative way to encourage yourself to do housework? Explain how it works.

The manuscripts will be locked in glass boxes until 2114. The goal is to collect a century’s stories and allow readers of the future to experience the changing times. She also e____66____ people to enjoy a slow and peaceful life while the trees grow up slowly. Canadian science fiction legend Margaret Atwood has just become the first author to write a book for the Future Library. “I am very p____67____ and happy to be part of this project.

It not only brings great fun but also helps build teamwork and improve physical health. However, since it involves running, jumping and ball-handling, we need to play it safely to avoid common injuries. Here are some important tips to ensure safe and enjoyable basketball playing. ● First, always warm up before playing. Do stretches (伸展) and light runs for 5-10 minutes to relax your muscles—this reduces the risk of sprains (扭伤). ● Second, wear proper clothes: basketball shoes to prevent slipping (滑倒), and knee pads (护膝) if you’re new. ● Third, follow the game rules. Don’t push or hit other players, as this can cause harm. ● Fourth, take breaks when tired. Playing for too long without rest makes your body weak and more likely to get hurt. Remember, safety always comes first in any sport. By following these simple but useful tips, you can fully enjoy playing basketball with your classmates and friends while staying healthy. After all, basketball isn’t just about scoring points or winning games—it’s about sharing happy moments and keeping an active lifestyle together. 24. What can basketball help middle school students build? A. Teamwork. B. Strength. C. Speed. D. Patience. 25. Which is a safe way to play basketball? A. Wearing slippers while playing. B. Jumping warm-up before the game. C. Taking breaks when feeling tired. D. Pushing others to get the ball. 26. What does the underlined sentence in the last paragraph want to tell us? A. Winning basketball game is not necessary at all. B. The true meaning of basketball is more important than competition. C. Middle school students should play basketball with friends. D. An active lifestyle can only be gotten by playing basketball. C While I was looking at the villagers, Mr. Hamel said to us in the same gentle voice, “Children, an order from Berlin asks that only German be taught in Alsace (法国阿尔萨斯大区). A new teacher will arrive tomorrow. This is your last French lesson.” These words hit me hard. Those terrible people had made it my last French lesson! But I had hardly learned anything. I wished I could go back in time and make up for all those lost hours and lessons. I understood why Mr. Hamel had put on his best coat and why the villagers were sitting at the back of the room. They, too, wished they could have attended school more often. They wanted to thank our teacher for his forty years of work and to show their respect for the country. I was lost in these thoughts when I heard my name called. It was my turn to recite (背诵). I wished I could recite the rule of participles (分词) confidently, but I failed. I stood there holding onto my desk, unable to lift my head. “I won’t say bad words to you, my little Franz,” Mr. Hamel said. “You must be feeling bad. That’s how it goes. We always say, ‘I have time. I’ll learn it tomorrow.’ And now you see, tomorrow has come. It’s a great misfortune (不幸) that we always put off learning. Now people will ask, ‘How can you say you are French? You don’t even know how to read or write your own language.’ You are not the only one to blame for this, my poor Franz. We all have good reason to blame ourselves. Your parents would rather have you work in the fields to make a bit more money. I sent you to water my garden quite a few times. And when I wanted to go fishing, didn’t I give you the day off?” Mr. Hamel went on. Finally, he spoke of the French language. He called it the most beautiful language in the world and asked us never to forget it. “When a country holds on to its language, it’s like holding the key to its freedom (自由).” he said. 27. How did Franz feel when he heard the news at first? A. Happy and relaxed. B. Worried and afraid. C. Excited and lucky. D. Surprised and sad. 28. What did Mr. Hamel try to tell Franz? A. It’s never too early to learn our own language. B. We should help parents make more money. C. French is the most beautiful language in the world. D. Reading is as important as writing when learning French. 29. What does the underlined word “blame” mean in Chinese? A. 怀疑 B. 责备 C. 鼓励 D. 欣赏 30. .Which of the following can be the best title of the passage? A. The Last Lesson B. The Key to Freedom C. The Most Beautiful Language D.

Have you ever stood in the middle of an untidy house, looking at the books and magazines around? You have the thought of tidying them up, but you give up before you start. Well, you are not alone. But luckily, I have found some nice ways to make myself willing to do the housework. Have less stuff (物品) Reducing (减少) the number of the things is a good way to make house cleaning easier. Every few months, I throw away some things we don’t need or use. It could be old clothes that no longer fit or books that I have already read and won’t pick up again. Fewer things make the house tidier and easier to clean. Do a bit each day Cleaning the whole house without a break can be really difficult, so I do a little each day. Monday could be the day to sweep the floors, Tuesday to make the bed, Wednesday to clean the bathroom, and so on. When the weekend comes, I can enjoy my free time watching a film or reading a good book instead of spending hours cleaning. Start with the easiest task When there’s a long list of housework, it can be hard to know where to begin. If so, I will start with the easiest task. When I complete the easiest task successfully, it will give me a sense of achievement. In this way, I will be more willing to go on with the rest of the housework. Make housework interesting Who says housework has to be boring? I’ve found that adding a little fun can make a big difference. I love listening to music and cleaning at the same time. As the music plays, I find myself dancing around. Time flies by and before I know it, the house is clean. I feel excited at the same time. It’s a win-win situation. In short, housework doesn’t have to be something you hate. By using these ways, you can make it easier, or more enjoyable. You might even surprisingly find that you don’t mind cleaning at all. Making yourself willing to do the housework Introduction Cleaning seems like an endless job and you are not the ____51____ one who wants to give it up. ____52____ to make yourself willing to do the housework Having less stuff ·Having ____53____ things at home means less to clean. ·Every several months, I throw away something ____54____ or unnecessary.
