A
In a vocational school in Guangdong, Ms. Luo asked her students to prepare a display about the Jingzhang Railway for the school technology corner. Before the project, many students only knew that Zhan Tianyou was a famous engineer. They did not know why the railway was so difficult to build. Ms. Luo divided the class into groups and asked them to find key facts, draw a route map and explain the meaning of the railway in simple English.
Yu Chen's group studied the hills and mountains along the line. They learned that many people once believed no one could build a railway there. To make the problem clear, they used sand, cardboard and toy trains to show the landform. Then they added small flags to mark important places. During the preparation, Yu Chen found that Zhan Tianyou and his team overcame many difficulties and finished the task ahead of schedule. This made him admire the engineer more than before.
On the presentation day, the group did not read long notes. They asked visitors to move a toy train through the model and think about the challenge. Many students stopped to ask questions. Ms. Luo said the best part of the display was not the colorful board, but the clear thinking behind it. Yu Chen also understood that great achievements often come from careful study, brave decisions and teamwork.

C. Food boxes and cups. D. Tickets and bags.
33.Why did Yu Chen admire Zhan Tianyou more than before?
A. Zhan wrote long notes in English. B. Zhan visited their school.

34.What was the best part of the display according to Ms. Luo?
A. The expensive toys. B. The clear thinking behind it.
C. The loud music. D. The large classroom.
35.What can students learn from the project?
A. Every project must use computers. B. Railways are easy to build in mountains.
C. Great achievements need careful study and teamwork. D. Long notes are better than models.
【答案】31.C 32.A 33.D 34.B 35.C
【导语】本文介绍广东一所中职学校学生制作京张铁路展示项目的过程,说明学生通过模型、资料整理和讲解理解工程成就背后的认真研究、勇敢决策与团队合作。
【详解】31.细节理解题。第一段“prepare a display about the Jingzhang Railway”直接说明任务是准备铁路展示,故选C。
32.细节理解题。第二段“To make the problem clear, they used sand, cardboard and toy trains...”明确列出材料,故选A。
33.细节理解题。第二段说明Zhan Tianyou和团队克服困难并提前完成任务,这使Yu Chen更加敬佩他,故选D。
34.细节理解题。第三段“the best part...was...the clear thinking behind it”给出依据,故选B。
35.推理判断题。结尾指出great achievements often come from careful study, brave decisions and teamwork,可知项目让学生理解伟大成就需要认真研究和团队合作,故选C。
B
People often say that inventions change the world, but some changes are so common that we forget to notice them. Paper is one example. Before paper became widely used, people wrote on materials that were heavy, costly or hard to carry. Messages could not travel easily, and ordinary people had fewer chances to read or record their ideas. When the method of paper-making was improved, knowledge became easier to keep and share.
Today, students may use tablets and smartphones more often than paper notebooks. These tools are fast and convenient. A student can take photos of a blackboard, record a short talk and send notes to classmates in a few seconds. However, this does not mean paper has lost its value. Many learners still remember information better when they write by hand. Paper is also easy to use when there is no electricity or Internet connection.
The story of paper can teach us how to think about technology. A good invention is not always the newest or the most expensive one. It is a tool that solves a real problem and helps more people learn, work or communicate. Tablets and paper may look different, but both can help us record ideas. The key is not to admire a tool blindly, but to use it wisely. When we choose the right tool for the right task, technology truly makes life better.
36.What problem did people have before paper became widely used?
A. Writing materials were often heavy or costly. B. There were too many tablets.
C. People could not speak clearly. D. Schools had no teachers.
37.What can students do with tablets and smartphones according to Paragraph 2?
A. Build railways in mountains. B. Grow rice in villages.
C. Send notes quickly. D. Make paper by hand only.
38.Why does paper still have value?
A. It is always more expensive. B. It needs fast Internet.
C. It can replace every machine. D. It helps some learners remember information.
39.What does the underlined word “blindly” in Paragraph 3 probably mean?
A. 盲目地 B. 安静地
C. 准时地 D. 礼貌地
40.What is the main idea of the passage?
A. Students should stop using smartphones. B. Useful technology solves real problems when used wisely.
C. Paper can only be used in museums. D. The newest invention is always the best.
【答案】36.A 37.C 38.D 39.A 40.B
【导语】本文从纸的历史价值谈到平板电脑和智能手机等现代工具,说明真正有价值的技术应解决真实问题,并需要被明智使用。
【详解】36.细节理解题。第一段“people wrote on materials that were heavy, costly or hard to carry”说明早期书写材料又重又贵或不便携带,故选A。
37.细节理解题。第二段提到学生可以在几秒内send notes to classmates,说明可快速发送笔记,故选C。
38.细节理解题。第二段“Many learners still remember information better when they write by hand.”说明手写能帮助一些学习者更好记忆,故选D。
39.词义猜测题。空前说关键不是崇拜工具,空后强调use it wisely“明智使用”,由对比可知blindly表示“盲目地”,故选A。
40.主旨大意题。文章由纸到电子工具,强调好工具应解决真实问题且要明智使用,B项概括最准确。
C
Many students want to invent something, but they do not know where to begin. Some think an invention must be a large machine or a completely new product. ____41____ In fact, many useful ideas begin with small problems around us, especially in classrooms, families and community life.
The first step is watching daily life carefully. You may find that classmates waste paper after printing, old people have trouble reading small words, or bags fall from desks easily. ____42____ A clear problem gives an inventor a clear direction and helps the team decide what kind of tool is really needed.
The second step is learning from people who have solved similar problems. You can read stories about inventors, ask workers in different jobs, or study how common tools work. ____43____ It helps you avoid repeating the same mistakes and gives you ideas for improvement, because old methods often show why a new design should be simpler, safer or cheaper.
The third step is making a simple model. It does not have to be perfect. Use cardboard, tape or old parts to test your idea first. ____44____ If it is too heavy, too weak or too hard to use, change it and test again. Keeping notes during each test is also important, since a small detail may explain why the model works or fails.
Finally, share your work and listen to advice. A useful invention grows through real use. ____45____ When your idea helps even one person, you have already taken the first step toward creating something meaningful. This process also teaches patience, responsibility and respect for the people who will use your design.
选项:
A. Then ask classmates or family members to try it.
B. These small problems are good starting points.
C. Their suggestions can help you make it safer and better.
D. This idea may stop them before they try.
E. This kind of learning is not copying.
【答案】41.D 42.B 43.E 44.A 45.C
【导语】本文介绍学生开展小发明的基本步骤:观察生活问题、学习已有经验、制作模型并听取反馈,强调有意义的创造可以从身边小事开始。
【详解】41.空前说有些学生误以为发明必须是大型机器或全新产品,空后转折说明许多有用想法来自小问题。D项指出这种想法会阻止尝试,承上启下,故选D。
42.空前列举浪费纸张、老人看小字困难、书包掉落等小问题,B项“These small problems...”概括这些问题并引出方向,故选B。
43.空前说要向解决过类似问题的人学习,空后说明这样能避免重复错误并获得改进思路。E项说明这种学习不是抄袭,逻辑衔接自然,故选E。
44.空前说先用简单材料测试想法,空后说如果太重、太弱或难用就修改。A项让同学或家人试用,正好引出测试反馈,故选A。
45.空前说有用的发明通过真实使用成长,C项“Their suggestions...”承接advice,说明建议能让作品更安全更好,故选C。
Ⅴ.语法填空(10小题,共20分)
阅读下面短文,在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。
Zhan Tianyou was an engineer ____ 46 ____ is still remembered by many Chinese people. He ____ 47 ____ (bear) in Guangdong Province in 1861 and showed an interest ____ 48 ____ machines when he was young. At eleven, he went to the US ____ 49 ____ (study). After graduation, he ____ 50 ____ (return) to China because he wanted to serve his country.
In 1905, he began to build the Jingzhang Railway. The work was hard, but the team ____ 51 ____ (complete) it in 1909. People consider it ____ 52 ____ brilliant piece of work. Today, high-speed trains make travel much ____ 53 ____ (easy). When students learn about his story, they understand that ____ 54 ____ (record) key facts carefully can help them know history better. They also believe ____ 55 ____ hard work can turn a difficult dream into a real achievement.
【答案】46.who/that 47.was born 48.in 49.to study 50.returned 51.completed 52.a 53.easier 54.recording 55.that
【详解】46.考查定语从句。空处引导定语从句修饰an engineer,且在从句中作主语,指人,因此填who或that。
47.考查被动结构。be born表示“出生”,主语He为单数,时间为1861年,应用一般过去时was born。
48.考查介词搭配。show an interest in表示“对……感兴趣”,故填in。
49.考查非谓语动词。went to the US的目的是学习,应用动词不定式to study作目的状语。
50.考查一般过去时。根据After graduation及上下文可知动作发生在过去,return应用过去式returned。
51.考查一般过去时。时间状语in 1909提示用一般过去时,complete变为completed。
52.考查冠词。piece为单数可数名词,brilliant以辅音音素开头,泛指“一项杰出作品”,故填a。
53.考查形容词比较级。much常修饰比较级,句中表示旅行更容易,easy变为easier。
54.考查动名词作主语。空处与key facts构成动宾关系,并在从句中作主语,应用recording。
55.考查宾语从句连接词。believe后接宾语从句,hard work can...结构和意义完整,应用that引导。
Ⅵ.完成句子(5小题,共15分)
根据所给中文提示补全英文句子。
56.你能告诉我为什么造纸术很重要吗?
Can you tell me _____________________?
【答案】why paper-making was important
【详解】考查宾语从句。tell后接宾语从句时使用陈述语序;“为什么造纸术很重要”表达为why paper-making was important。
57.詹天佑成功地提前完成了这条铁路。
Zhan Tianyou _____________________ the railway ahead of schedule.
【答案】succeeded in completing
【详解】考查固定搭配。succeed in doing sth.表示“成功做成某事”;“完成铁路”为complete the railway,故填succeeded in completing。
58.我们应该减少浪费来保护环境。
We should _____________________ to protect the environment.
【答案】reduce waste
【详解】考查情态动词后动词原形。should后接动词原形;reduce waste表示“减少浪费”。
59.智能手机帮助我们与家人保持联系。
Smartphones help us _____________________ with our families.
【答案】stay connected
【详解】考查固定表达。stay connected with sb.表示“与某人保持联系”;help sb. do sth.后接动词原形。
60.做笔记对学习历史事实很有用。
_____________________ when we learn historical facts.
【答案】It is useful to take notes

A
In a vocational school in Guangdong, Ms. Luo asked her students to prepare a display about the Jingzhang Railway for the school technology corner. Before the project, many students only knew that Zhan Tianyou was a famous engineer. They did not know why the railway was so difficult to build. Ms. Luo divided the class into groups and asked them to find key facts, draw a route map and explain the meaning of the railway in simple English.
Yu Chen's group studied the hills and mountains along the line. They learned that many people once believed no one could build a railway there. To make the problem clear, they used sand, cardboard and toy trains to show the landform. Then they added small flags to mark important places. During the preparation, Yu Chen found that Zhan Tianyou and his team overcame many difficulties and finished the task ahead of schedule. This made him admire the engineer more than before.
On the presentation day, the group did not read long notes. They asked visitors to move a toy train through the model and think about the challenge. Many students stopped to ask questions. Ms. Luo said the best part of the display was not the colorful board, but the clear thinking behind it. Yu Chen also understood that great achievements often come from careful study, brave decisions and teamwork.

People often say that inventions change the world, but some changes are so common that we forget to notice them. Paper is one example. Before paper became widely used, people wrote on materials that were heavy, costly or hard to carry. Messages could not travel easily, and ordinary people had fewer chances to read or record their ideas. When the method of paper-making was improved, knowledge became easier to keep and share.
Today, students may use tablets and smartphones more often than paper notebooks. These tools are fast and convenient. A student can take photos of a blackboard, record a short talk and send notes to classmates in a few seconds. However, this does not mean paper has lost its value. Many learners still remember information better when they write by hand. Paper is also easy to use when there is no electricity or Internet connection.
The story of paper can teach us how to think about technology. A good invention is not always the newest or the most expensive one. It is a tool that solves a real problem and helps more people learn, work or communicate. Tablets and paper may look different, but both can help us record ideas. The key is not to admire a tool blindly, but to use it wisely. When we choose the right tool for the right task, technology truly makes life better.

A. 盲目地 B. 安静地
C. 准时地 D. 礼貌地

C. Paper can only be used in museums. D. The newest invention is always the best.

Many students want to invent something, but they do not know where to begin. Some think an invention must be a large machine or a completely new product. ____41____ In fact, many useful ideas begin with small problems around us, especially in classrooms, families and community life.
The first step is watching daily life carefully. You may find that classmates waste paper after printing, old people have trouble reading small words, or bags fall from desks easily. ____42____ A clear problem gives an inventor a clear direction and helps the team decide what kind of tool is really needed.
The second step is learning from people who have solved similar problems. You can read stories about inventors, ask workers in different jobs, or study how common tools work. ____43____ It helps you avoid repeating the same mistakes and gives you ideas for improvement, because old methods often show why a new design should be simpler, safer or cheaper.
The third step is making a simple model. It does not have to be perfect. Use cardboard, tape or old parts to test your idea first. ____44____ If it is too heavy, too weak or too hard to use, change it and test again. Keeping notes during each test is also important, since a small detail may explain why the model works or fails.
Finally, share your work and listen to advice. A useful invention grows through real use. ____45____ When your idea helps even one person, you have already taken the first step toward creating something meaningful. This process also teaches patience, responsibility and respect for the people who will use your design.
