M: Hello, everyone. I’d like to talk about Chinese cartoons today. Chinese cartoons started from the period of 1922 to 1949. The Wan brothers produced China’s first animated short in 1926. Titled Studio Scene, it was a 10-minute black and white short with a very simple style. In 1941, China’s first full-length feature animated film Princess Iron Fan was born. The period from 1950 to 1964 was regarded as the Golden Age of Chinese cartoons. Many excellent animated works came up and many new styles were created. The well-known action cartoon Magic Brush won China’s first international award. Another example, Havoc in Heaven, tells the heroic story of the Monkey King, combining classic Chinese culture and cartoon, creating a good memory for many people that lasts until today. Chinese cartoons began their second development stage after 1978. Classic animated films such as Ne Zha and The Three Monks were shown on screen. Their stories were mostly based on traditional Chinese literature and featured a typical Asian style. However, from 1996 to 2014, Chinese cartoons saw a decline compared with the introduction of cartoons from other countries, including Japan...

That morning, after taking our oldest child to kindergarten, I went back home, let our two younger kids play, and worked on my medical report. It was wonderful, but it hit me that my career in hospital wasn’t making a difference in anyone’s life. I needed something that would stretch my limits and push me to grow. My career enabled me to work from home and become a foster (领养) mother, providing safety for a child who needed it desperately.
Monday morning, I grabbed the phone and rang the number I’d found via Google for the nearest Department of Children’s Services. The man on the other end was receptive to my questions and explained the next step of training, involving eight weeks of classes designed to prepare and educate foster parents. We continued through all the classes, the home visits, background checks, and seemingly endless steps.
Five months after our approval, a middle-of-the-night phone call woke me. I aroused my husband and we hurried to East Tennessee Children’s Hospital, where our foster placement awaited us in the ER, ill and malnourished. It didn’t take long for us to realize the full depth of her suffering. Six months later, her half-brother came to us by our request. We now had five children under our care.
On August 12, 2016, our family of seven walked into a small courtroom. The children’s lawyer and social worker were there. With just a few words, our adoption was finalized. These two amazing children weren’t going home, because they were already home. We are their forever family and they are our forever children. We may not be able to change the entire world, but we have changed the world entirely for our new children.
24.How did the author feel about her hospital work?
A.Unusually demanding. B.Filled with challenges.
C.Lacking in motivation. D.Packed with chances.
25.What caused the author to choose to adopt children?
A.She experienced training to raise children properly.
B.She felt sympathetic for abused children she knew
C.She felt confident about her ability to raise children.
D.She desired to have a positive impact on others’ lives.
26.How did the author receive her first foster child?
A.The child was brought to her home by a social worker.
B.She got a midnight call and rushed to a hospital ER.
C.She picked the child up from a kindergarten.
D.The child’s half-brother introduced them.
27.Why did the author appear at the courtroom?
A.To make the adoption officially legal.
B.To receive another adopted child.
C.To put the adopted kids elsewhere.
D.To begin the kids’ adoption in her home.
【答案】24.C 25.D 26.B 27.A
【导语】文章主要讲述了作者因感觉医院工作缺乏动力而选择成为领养母亲,最终成功领养两个孩子的故事。
【详解】24.推理判断题。根据第一段中“It was wonderful, but it hit me that my career in hospital wasn’t making a difference in anyone’s life. I needed something that would stretch my limits and push me to grow.(这很棒,但我突然意识到,我在医院的职业生涯并没有改变任何人的生活。我需要一些能拓展我的极限、推动我成长的东西)”可知,作者觉得医院的工作缺乏动力。
25.细节理解题。根据第一段中“I needed something that would stretch my limits and push me to grow. My career enabled me to work from home and become a foster (领养) mother, providing safety for a child who needed it desperately.(我需要一些能拓展我的极限、推动我成长的东西。我的职业使我能在家工作,成为一名养母,为一个迫切需要安全的孩子提供安全)”可知,作者渴望对别人的生活产生积极影响,所以选择领养孩子。
26.细节理解题。根据第三段中“Five months after our approval, a middle-of-the-night phone call woke me. I aroused my husband and we hurried to East Tennessee Children’s Hospital, where our foster placement awaited us in the ER, ill and malnourished.(批准五个月后,一个半夜的电话吵醒了我。我叫醒丈夫,我们匆匆赶到东田纳西儿童医院,我们的寄养孩子在急诊室等着我们,病得很重,营养不良)”可知,作者半夜接到电话,然后匆忙赶到医院急诊室,接收了她的第一个寄养孩子。
27.细节理解题。根据最后一段中“On August 12, 2016, our family of seven walked into a small courtroom. The children’s lawyer and social worker were there. With just a few words, our adoption was finalized.(2016年8月12日,我们一家七口走进一个小法庭。孩子们的律师和社会工作者也在那里。只说了几句话,我们的收养就完成了)”可知,作者出现在法庭是为了使收养正式合法化。

Two billion children in the developing world can’t receive good education—the key to human development. However, technology offers an answer which allows the poor in developing countries to learn. It is a tool which holds the ability to change the lives of the poor, as it provides a means of learning and communicating.
Educational programs must break away from old systems. New companies such as One Laptop(笔记本电脑) Per Child(OLPC), an organization founded by MIT Professor Nicholas Negroponte have been active in solving the world’s education problem.
The Internet has changed the world, allowing educational services to help with the global fight against poverty. Khan Academy is one such service. Like OLPC, it is an organization founded by Harvard Business School graduate Salman Khan with the task of “providing a worldclass education to anyone, anywhere”. The education offered includes a large number of mathrelated topics.
The GMAT Pill Review is another company that trains MBA candidates(应考人) worldwide to prepare for the GMAT exam on both the Quant and Verbal section. Founded by Stanford graduate Zeke Lee, the company offers services which are priced at about 75% less than other similar programs. It allows students from developing countries who might not be able to afford similar courses to have access to these services.
Whether paid or free these services provide educational opportunities to those who would never have had the chance in the past. As a result of the technology revolution(革新), business schools may see more students from different corners of the world. Because of the Internet, people in developing nations have access to better and more affordable educational opportunities. More and more people will try to improve their lives through educational opportunities outside of their homeland—an idea usually uncommon in developing countries.
28.According to the text, technology can ________.
A.improve people’s reading ability. B.solve the problems facing the whole world.
C.help the poor to reduce poverty. D.cause poverty in developing countries.
29.We can learn from the text that Khan Academy aims to ________.
A.help the poor pay for good courses. B.provide every child with a computer.
C.help train MBA candidates. D.make everyone receive a good education.
30.Which of the following about GMAT Pill Review is TRUE?
A.It only accepts students from developing countries.
B.It was started by Professor Nicholas Negroponte.
C.It charges students about 25 percent of other similar programs.
D.The education includes a lot of mathrelated topics.
31.In the past, people in developing countries ________.
A.had no educational opportunities in their homeland.
B.seldom thought of receiving foreign education to change themselves.
C.always believed education was of great importance.
D.wouldn’t leave their homeland to reduce poverty.
【答案】28.C 29.D 30.C 31.B
【导语】这是一篇说明文。发展中国家20亿儿童无法接受良好教育,而科技为发展中国家的穷人提供了学习途径,像“每个孩子一台笔记本电脑”组织、可汗学院和GMAT Pill Review等教育项目和公司都在为解决世界教育问题而努力,科技革命让发展中国家的人有机会获得更好且更实惠的教育机会。
28.细节理解题。根据文章第一段“However, technology offers an answer which allows the poor in developing countries to learn. It is a tool which holds the ability to change the lives of the poor, as it provides a means of learning and communicating(然而,科技提供了一个答案,让发展中国家的穷人能够学习。它是一种有能力改变穷人生活的工具,因为它提供了一种学习和交流的方式)”可知,科技为发展中国家的穷人提供了学习方式,是改变穷人生活的工具,能够帮助穷人减少贫困。故选C项。
29.细节理解题。根据第三段中的“Khan Academy is one such service. Like OLPC, it is an organization founded by Harvard Business School graduate Salman Khan with the task of “providing a worldclass education to anyone, anywhere”(可汗学院就是这样的服务之一。和OLPC一样,它是由哈佛商学院毕业生萨尔曼・汗创立的一个组织,其任务是“为任何地方的任何人提供世界一流的教育”)”可知,可汗学院的任务是 “为任何地方的任何人提供世界一流的教育”,即让每个人都接受良好的教育。故选D项。
30.细节理解题。根据第四段中的“Founded by Stanford graduate Zeke Lee, the company offers services which are priced at about 75% less than other similar programs(该公司由斯坦福大学毕业生齐克・李创立,提供的服务价格比其他类似项目低75%左右)”可知,GMAT Pill Review 提供的服务价格比其他类似项目低75%左右,也就是收取其他类似项目约25% 的费用。故选C项。
31.推理判断题。根据文章最后一句“More and more people will try to improve their lives through educational opportunities outside of their homeland—an idea usually uncommon in developing countries(越来越多的人将尝试通过祖国之外的教育机会来改善自己的生活 —— 这在发展中国家通常是不常见的想法)”可知,越来越多的人会尝试通过国外的教育机会来改善生活,而这在过去的发展中国家是不常见的想法,由此可推断过去发展中国家的人很少想到通过接受国外教育来改变自己。故选B项。
D
For some families, birthday parties that often end up with bags of plastic can be a source of stress, or even shame. Many parents say the gifting aspect upsets them. But can a party really be a party without presents?
According to Charlotte Mason-Curl, it’s possible! Like many parents, Mason-Curl experienced climate anxiety after her daughter’s birthday party and became determined to make a change. She wanted to get rid of the usual gift-giving tradition and replace it with something more sustainable. She launched the Kids’ Party Pact — a digital promise to take a low-waste approach to hosting and attending birthday parties. The pact has three parts: agreeing not to use plastic bags; giving secondhand or homemade gifts (or none); and issuing guidance on greener gifts for their own children.
The response from parents has been positive. “I thought we were the only family who had these concerns,” wrote one mother. “So happy other parents feel the same!”
The pact provides suggested wording for invitations to help parents communicate their stance (立场) without causing problems. For example: “Gifts are not required.” If you insist on being a rule breaker, a homemade card or a hand-picked flower would be welcome, but not necessary!
“We’re so truly accustomed not to turning up empty-handed, even if we’re asked to,” Mason-Curl explains. “It’s better to give people some guidance, telling them what to bring, than to tell them not to bring anything, because often they still bring a little something. A little something times 20 equals an alarmingly large amount of waste.”
Thanks to the Kids’ Party Pact, we are reminded that true celebration doesn’t depend on material gifts. By giving up expensive presents, we can focus on precious time with loved ones and protect our planet. It teaches both parents and children that love and friendship are the most valuable gifts, far more meaningful than any wrapped plastic or fancy goods.
32.What can be inferred from the first paragraph?
A.The Kids’ Party Pact has been widely accepted by all parents.
B.Plastic bags are the biggest source of waste at birthday parties.
C.Many parents feel upset about the traditional gift-giving tradition.
D.Homemade gifts are more popular than secondhand gifts among parents.
33.Why did Charlotte Mason-Curl launch the Kids’ Party Pact?
A.She hoped to earn money from the digital promise.
B.She wanted to make her daughter’s birthday more fun.
C.She found that parents were not interested in birthday parties.
D.She was worried about the environmental impact of gift-giving.
34.Which of the following is a “rule-breaker” gift according to the text?
A.An expensive branded backpack.
B.A plastic-wrapped set of pencils.
C.A handwritten card and a self-picked flower.
D.A new toy car bought from a department store.
35.What can be inferred from Mason-Curl’s words in the fifth paragraph?
A.Small gifts do not cause much waste.
B.People are used to bringing gifts to parties.
C.People should never bring anything to parties.
D.Only expensive gifts are the main cause of waste.
【答案】32.C 33.D 34.C 35.B
【导语】讲述了夏洛特·梅森-柯尔发起“儿童派对公约”,旨在改变传统生日派对送礼习惯,减少浪费,强调真正的庆祝不依赖物质礼物,爱与友谊才是最有价值的。
32.推理判断题。根据第一段中的“Many parents say the gifting aspect upsets them.(许多家长表示送礼这一环节让他们感到困扰。)”可知,从第一段能够推断出,很多家长对传统互赠礼物的生日派对习俗感到烦恼不安。
33.细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Like many parents, Mason-Curl experienced climate anxiety after her daughter’s birthday party and became determined to make a change. She wanted to get rid of the usual gift-giving tradition and replace it with something more sustainable.(和许多家长一样,梅森-柯尔在女儿生日派对后产生了气候环境方面的担忧,并决心做出改变,摒弃传统送礼习俗,改用更环保可持续的方式。)”可知,她发起这项约定,是因为担忧送礼带来的环境负面影响。
34.细节理解题。根据第四段中的“If you insist on being a rule breaker, a homemade card or a hand-picked flower would be welcome, but not necessary!(如果你执意要破例送礼,自制贺卡或亲手采摘的鲜花是可以被接受的,但并非硬性要求。)”可知,自制贺卡和亲手采摘的鲜花属于文中所说破例可接受的礼物。
35.推理判断题。根据第五段中的““We’re so truly accustomed not to turning up empty-handed, even if we’re asked to,” Mason-Curl explains. (梅森-柯尔解释道:“我们早已习惯绝不空手登门,即便对方嘴上说不必带礼物。”)”可知,梅森-柯尔的话表明,人们早已习惯参加生日派对携带礼物的传统做法。
第二节(共5小题:每小题2. 5分, 满分12. 5分)
阅读下面短文, 从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Can housework play a role in our spiritual life? My answer is yes.
Housework puts us in touch with the passage of time. Over time surfaces collect dust. Toilets get dirty. 36 . Things get misplaced. Housework tries to put cleanliness and order back into our homes. Housework whispers (轻语) to us, “Look around 37 . You too are changing and being changed by time. And so are your loved ones. Remember, live your time well.”
Housework can be rewarding (令人有所收获的). 38 The sink sparkles (洗碗槽闪耀) and the mirror shines. We can see more satisfaction with housework than we can with many other “tasks” — like raising a family, working at the office or running a business.
39 We clean the house so our family, our housemates, or our guests have a wonderful place to live or visit. Even if we live alone, we would still do housework to make our home clean and warm for another important person: ourselves! Housework reminds us: charity begins at home.
Housework can lead to gratitude (感恩). We may not live in a palace, but most of us really have it good. We have a roof over our heads and a floor under our feet. 40 We have heat in the cold months and have air conditioning in the hot months. With every item (物品). we dust, clean or wash, we become aware of how much we have.
A.Everything is changing.
B.Housework is a relative value.
C.Housework is an act of charity.
D.We have windows to look out of.
E.Food in the refrigerator goes bad.
F.I spend a lot of time doing housework.
G.I mean I can see the results of my work.
【答案】36.E 37.A 38.G 39.C 40.D
【导语】这是一篇说明文。作者认为家务对精神生活有益。它让人感知时间流逝,带来成就感与满足,教会人关爱家人与自我,并在劳动中学会感恩与惜福。
【详解】36.根据上文“Housework puts us in touch with the passage of time. Over time surfaces collect dust. Toilets get dirty.(家务劳动让我们感受到时间的流逝。随着时间的推移,表面会积满灰尘,马桶也会变得脏兮兮的)”以及后文“Things get misplaced.(东西放错了地方)”可知,本段主题是家务让我们感知时间的流逝。前文提到了“积灰”、“变脏”,后文提到“放错位置”,这些都是随着时间推移家里发生的具体变化。E选项“冰箱里的食物变质”符合这种具体的、随时间发生的负面变化的语境。故选E。
37.根据后文“You too are changing and being changed by time. And so are your loved ones. Remember, live your time well.”(你也正在随着时间而改变,同时也在影响着他人。你的亲人也是如此。请记住,要充分利用好你所拥有的时间)”可知,下文“You too are changing...”是对前文的进一步说明。A选项“万物皆在变化”起到了承上启下的作用,引出后文关于人和亲人都在随时间改变的感慨。故选A。
38.根据上文“Housework can be rewarding (令人有所收获的).(家务劳动也是有回报的)”以及后文“The sink sparkles (洗碗槽闪耀) and the mirror shines. We can see more satisfaction with housework than we can with many other “tasks” — like raising a family, working at the office or running a business.(水槽闪闪发亮,镜子也熠熠生辉。与许多其他“任务”相比(比如养育子女、在办公室工作或经营企业),我们更能从家务劳动中感受到满足感)”可知,本段主题是家务是“rewarding”。下文具体描述了“水槽闪耀”、“镜子发光”,这是具体的视觉成果。G选项“我的意思是我能看到工作的成果”是对前文“rewarding”的具体解释,并引出后文的视觉描写。故选G。
39.根据后文“We clean the house so our family, our housemates, or our guests have a wonderful place to live or visit. Even if we live alone, we would still do housework-to make our home clean and warm for another important person: ourselves! Housework reminds us: charity begins at home.(我们打扫房屋,是为了让我们的家人、室友或者客人有一个舒适的居住或来访之所。即使我们独自居住,我们也会做家务——为了让我们的家变得干净温暖,以迎接另一个重要的“客人”——那就是我们自己!家务劳动提醒着我们:仁爱始于家)”可知,本段后文提到了为家人、室友、客人甚至自己打扫,目的是为了提供一个温暖的家。最后一句总结道 “charity begins at home(仁爱始于家)”。C选项 “家务是一种仁爱的行为”作为本段的主题句,完美概括了全段内容。故选C。
40.根据上文“Housework can lead to gratitude (感恩). We may not live in a palace, but most of us really have it good. We have a roof over our heads and a floor under our feet.(家务劳动能够培养感恩之心。我们或许并非身处宫殿之中,但大多数人的生活其实已经相当不错了。我们有栖身之所,脚下也有坚实的地面)”以及后文“We have heat in the cold months and have air conditioning in the hot months. With every item (物品). we dust, clean or wash, we become aware of how much we have.(在寒冷的月份我们会享受温暖,在炎热的月份我们会使用空调。对于每一件物品,我们都会进行擦拭、清洁或清洗,这样我们就能意识到自己拥有多少东西了)”可知,本段主题是家务带来感恩。前文列举了我们拥有的东西:屋顶、地板;后文列举了暖气和空调。D选项 “我们有窗可眺望”与前后文结构一致,都是在列举我们拥有的具体物质条件,表达对生活的感恩。故选D。

Every time my son came home from college, he would make our house a terrible mess: dirty clothes, unwashed cups, the unmade bed, and so on. It really 41 me.

He likely hadn’t even 45 half the times I’d asked him to clean up. Each time the task went undone, I grew angrier until I eventually 46 my mind. My son was often truly 47 about why I was so mad. It turned out that the clueless look on his face was real — he wasn’t 48 .
That conversation was a game-changer as I began to 49 what was really going on. My idea that he was intentionally trying to annoy me 50 . The next day, I set a few simple rules, helpfully backed by a(n) 51 — access to the family car — and aimed for peace over perfection.
I didn’t get angry right away if I saw a dirty plate or an unmade bed. I 52 reminded him that access to the car depended upon cleaning his room. Sometimes, I even 53 to make his bed or wash his plates, and he appreciated my help.

第二节(满分25分)
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。
My father was sixty. Though he had planned on retiring at fifty-five, he was still working hard. For him, raising four children — especially now that my mother had stopped working and was at home full time — meant he couldn’t afford to retire. It also meant he couldn’t make good on something he had promised my mother. “Sweetheart,” he’d say, “I’m going to take you on a cruise (乘船游览).” He still told her that, and only these days he added, “as soon as the kids are out of college.”
I knew that putting all of us kids through college probably meant it was going to be a while before my father achieved his dream of going away with my mother on a cruise — though it didn’t stop him from cutting out ads about cruise vacations! It was cute, but it was kind of sad, too. I remember my grandmother always wanted to go to Nova Scotia. My grandfather would always say, “We’ll go next year, sweetheart.” Then she died. My grandmother never got to see Nova Scotia. I just didn’t want my parents to wait until it was too late.
I decided to save up my money to send my parents on a cruise, even if it was a short three-day cruise. My friends said to me, “Get real! Saving up for a cruise is something you’ll never be able to do.” But I didn’t believe that. It was not like I could send them around the world or anything, but I didn’t think my putting together the money for a short trip was an impossible goal. I was determined that just as my parents had made my dreams come true for all these years from my first bicycle to my first soccer camp — I was going to do all I could to make their dream of going on a cruise come true.
注意:(1) 续写词数应为150个左右;
(2) 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
I started doing part-time jobs and yard work around the neighborhood.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
One year later, I finally saved up enough money!
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】
I started doing part-time jobs and yard work around the neighborhood. It was my turn to do something for them to repay their love. I had a tight schedule every day: I would deliver milk at dawn, and worked as a waiter in a restaurant at night. It wasn’t always easy. There were times when I felt as if I was torn up because I had to strike the balance between work and study. However, at the thought of my parents’ long-awaited cruise trip, I persevered in the jobs no matter how tired I was. I knew that one more coin I earned meant one step closer to making their dream a reality.
One year later, I finally saved up enough money! I was overwhelmed by an incredible feeling of accomplishment and excitement when I checked my savings account balance. I couldn’t wait to book two cruise tickets for them. When they opened the envelope containing the tickets, their eyes widened with surprise and disbelief. With their eyes blurred with tears, they gave me a tight hug, thanking me over and over again. Then they spent three unforgettable days on the cruise trip, enjoying each other’s company. At that moment, I knew that all my hard work and sacrifices were worth it.

That morning, after taking our oldest child to kindergarten, I went back home, let our two younger kids play, and worked on my medical report. It was wonderful, but it hit me that my career in hospital wasn’t making a difference in anyone’s life. I needed something that would stretch my limits and push me to grow. My career enabled me to work from home and become a foster (领养) mother, providing safety for a child who needed it desperately.
Monday morning, I grabbed the phone and rang the number I’d found via Google for the nearest Department of Children’s Services. The man on the other end was receptive to my questions and explained the next step of training, involving eight weeks of classes designed to prepare and educate foster parents. We continued through all the classes, the home visits, background checks, and seemingly endless steps.
Five months after our approval, a middle-of-the-night phone call woke me. I aroused my husband and we hurried to East Tennessee Children’s Hospital, where our foster placement awaited us in the ER, ill and malnourished. It didn’t take long for us to realize the full depth of her suffering. Six months later, her half-brother came to us by our request. We now had five children under our care.
On August 12, 2016, our family of seven walked into a small courtroom. The children’s lawyer and social worker were there. With just a few words, our adoption was finalized. These two amazing children weren’t going home, because they were already home. We are their forever family and they are our forever children. We may not be able to change the entire world, but we have changed the world entirely for our new children.
24.How did the author feel about her hospital work?
A.Unusually demanding. B.Filled with challenges.
C.Lacking in motivation. D.Packed with chances.
25.What caused the author to choose to adopt children?
A.She experienced training to raise children properly.
B.She felt sympathetic for abused children she knew
C.She felt confident about her ability to raise children.
D.She desired to have a positive impact on others’ lives.
26.How did the author receive her first foster child?
A.The child was brought to her home by a social worker.
B.She got a midnight call and rushed to a hospital ER.
C.She picked the child up from a kindergarten.
D.The child’s half-brother introduced them.
27.Why did the author appear at the courtroom?
A.To make the adoption officially legal.
B.To receive another adopted child.
C.To put the adopted kids elsewhere.
D.To begin the kids’ adoption in her home.
C
Two billion children in the developing world can’t receive good education—the key to human development. However, technology offers an answer which allows the poor in developing countries to learn. It is a tool which holds the ability to change the lives of the poor, as it provides a means of learning and communicating.
Educational programs must break away from old systems. New companies such as One Laptop(笔记本电脑) Per Child(OLPC), an organization founded by MIT Professor Nicholas Negroponte have been active in solving the world’s education problem.
The Internet has changed the world, allowing educational services to help with the global fight against poverty. Khan Academy is one such service. Like OLPC, it is an organization founded by Harvard Business School graduate Salman Khan with the task of “providing a worldclass education to anyone, anywhere”. The education offered includes a large number of mathrelated topics.
The GMAT Pill Review is another company that trains MBA candidates(应考人) worldwide to prepare for the GMAT exam on both the Quant and Verbal section. Founded by Stanford graduate Zeke Lee, the company offers services which are priced at about 75% less than other similar programs. It allows students from developing countries who might not be able to afford similar courses to have access to these services.
Whether paid or free these services provide educational opportunities to those who would never have had the chance in the past.

For some families, birthday parties that often end up with bags of plastic can be a source of stress, or even shame. Many parents say the gifting aspect upsets them. But can a party really be a party without presents?
According to Charlotte Mason-Curl, it’s possible! Like many parents, Mason-Curl experienced climate anxiety after her daughter’s birthday party and became determined to make a change. She wanted to get rid of the usual gift-giving tradition and replace it with something more sustainable. She launched the Kids’ Party Pact — a digital promise to take a low-waste approach to hosting and attending birthday parties. The pact has three parts: agreeing not to use plastic bags; giving secondhand or homemade gifts (or none); and issuing guidance on greener gifts for their own children.
The response from parents has been positive. “I thought we were the only family who had these concerns,” wrote one mother. “So happy other parents feel the same!”
The pact provides suggested wording for invitations to help parents communicate their stance (立场) without causing problems. For example: “Gifts are not required.” If you insist on being a rule breaker, a homemade card or a hand-picked flower would be welcome, but not necessary!
“We’re so truly accustomed not to turning up empty-handed, even if we’re asked to,” Mason-Curl explains. “It’s better to give people some guidance, telling them what to bring, than to tell them not to bring anything, because often they still bring a little something. A little something times 20 equals an alarmingly large amount of waste.”
Thanks to the Kids’ Party Pact, we are reminded that true celebration doesn’t depend on material gifts. By giving up expensive presents, we can focus on precious time with loved ones and protect our planet. It teaches both parents and children that love and friendship are the most valuable gifts, far more meaningful than any wrapped plastic or fancy goods.
32.What can be inferred from the first paragraph?
A.The Kids’ Party Pact has been widely accepted by all parents.
B.Plastic bags are the biggest source of waste at birthday parties.
C.Many parents feel upset about the traditional gift-giving tradition.
D.Homemade gifts are more popular than secondhand gifts among parents.
33.Why did Charlotte Mason-Curl launch the Kids’ Party Pact?
A.She hoped to earn money from the digital promise.
B.She wanted to make her daughter’s birthday more fun.
C.She found that parents were not interested in birthday parties.
D.She was worried about the environmental impact of gift-giving.
34.Which of the following is a “rule-breaker” gift according to the text?
A.An expensive branded backpack.
B.A plastic-wrapped set of pencils.
C.A handwritten card and a self-picked flower.
D.A new toy car bought from a department store.
35.What can be inferred from Mason-Curl’s words in the fifth paragraph?
A.Small gifts do not cause much waste.
B.People are used to bringing gifts to parties.
C.People should never bring anything to parties.
D.Only expensive gifts are the main cause of waste.

阅读下面短文, 从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Can housework play a role in our spiritual life? My answer is yes.
Housework puts us in touch with the passage of time. Over time surfaces collect dust. Toilets get dirty. 36 . Things get misplaced. Housework tries to put cleanliness and order back into our homes. Housework whispers to us, “Look around 37 . You too are changing and being changed by time. And so are your loved ones. Remember, live your time well.”
Housework can be rewarding (令人有所收获的). 38 The sink sparkles (洗碗槽闪耀) and the mirror shines. We can see more satisfaction with housework than we can with many other “tasks” — like raising a family, working at the office or running a business.
39 We clean the house so our family, our housemates, or our guests have a wonderful place to live or visit. Even if we live alone, we would still do housework to make our home clean and warm for another important person: ourselves! Housework reminds us: charity begins at home.
Housework can lead to gratitude (感恩). We may not live in a palace, but most of us really have it good. We have a roof over our heads and a floor under our feet. 40 We have heat in the cold months and have air conditioning in the hot months. With every item (物品). we dust, clean or wash, we become aware of how much we have.
A.Everything is changing.
B.Housework is a relative value.
C.Housework is an act of charity.
D.We have windows to look out of.
E.Food in the refrigerator goes bad.
F.I spend a lot of time doing housework.
G.I mean I can see the results of my work.

Every time my son came home from college, he would make our house a terrible mess: dirty clothes, unwashed cups, the unmade bed, and so on. It really 41 me.
This past summer, I talked frankly with my son, trying to figure out his behavior. I was getting angry again about the 42 house. He apologized and said it wasn’t his 43 to drive me crazy; instead, he was being self-involved, and his 44 to do what I asked had nothing to do with me.
He likely hadn’t even 45 half the times I’d asked him to clean up. Each time the task went undone, I grew angrier until I eventually 46 my mind. My son was often truly 47 about why I was so mad. It turned out that the clueless look on his face was real — he wasn’t 48 .
That conversation was a game-changer as I began to 49 what was really going on. My idea that he was intentionally trying to annoy me 50 . The next day, I set a few simple rules, helpfully backed by a(n) 51 — access to the family car — and aimed for peace over perfection.
I didn’t get angry right away if I saw a dirty plate or an unmade bed. I 52 reminded him that access to the car depended upon cleaning his room. Sometimes, I even 53 to make his bed or wash his plates, and he appreciated my help.
Although certainly not perfect, my new approach showed many signs of positive change. I was so grateful for that 54 . You never know how a tricky issue can be solved in such a(n) 55 way. Sometimes, solutions are surprisingly simple.
41.A.surprised B.scared C.bored D.upset

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。
My father was sixty. Though he had planned on retiring at fifty-five, he was still working hard. For him, raising four children — especially now that my mother had stopped working and was at home full time — meant he couldn’t afford to retire. It also meant he couldn’t make good on something he had promised my mother. “Sweetheart,” he’d say, “I’m going to take you on a cruise (乘船游览).” He still told her that, and only these days he added, “as soon as the kids are out of college.”
I knew that putting all of us kids through college probably meant it was going to be a while before my father achieved his dream of going away with my mother on a cruise — though it didn’t stop him from cutting out ads about cruise vacations! It was cute, but it was kind of sad, too. I remember my grandmother always wanted to go to Nova Scotia. My grandfather would always say, “We’ll go next year, sweetheart.” Then she died. My grandmother never got to see Nova Scotia. I just didn’t want my parents to wait until it was too late.
I decided to save up my money to send my parents on a cruise, even if it was a short three-day cruise. My friends said to me, “Get real! Saving up for a cruise is something you’ll never be able to do.” But I didn’t believe that. It was not like I could send them around the world or anything, but I didn’t think my putting together the money for a short trip was an impossible goal. I was determined that just as my parents had made my dreams come true for all these years from my first bicycle to my first soccer camp — I was going to do all I could to make their dream of going on a cruise come true.
注意:(1) 续写词数应为150个左右;
(2) 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
I started doing part-time jobs and yard work around the neighborhood.

One year later, I finally saved up enough money!

To welcome the new year, a big party was held in our classroom from 2:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m. on December 29th, with all the students and teachers participating.
Multiple activities like singing, dancing, crosstalk, and a magic show kept us laughing and cheering. What impressed us most was the interaction with the teachers in the game “Musical Chairs”, where we were almost breathless with nervousness when the music stopped, then followed by a burst of laughter.
The party witnessed our joy and excitement and was a fantastic way to greet 2025!
第二节 (满分25分)
I started doing part-time jobs and yard work around the neighborhood. It was my turn to do something for them to repay their love. I had a tight schedule every day: I would deliver milk at dawn, and worked as a waiter in a restaurant at night. It wasn’t always easy. There were times when I felt as if I was torn up because I had to strike the balance between work and study. However, at the thought of my parents’ long-awaited cruise trip, I persevered in the jobs no matter how tired I was. I knew that one more coin I earned meant one step closer to making their dream a reality.
One year later, I finally saved up enough money! I was overwhelmed by an incredible feeling of accomplishment and excitement when I checked my savings account balance. I couldn’t wait to book two cruise tickets for them. When they opened the envelope containing the tickets, their eyes widened with surprise and disbelief. With their eyes blurred with tears, they gave me a tight hug, thanking me over and over again. Then they spent three unforgettable days on the cruise trip, enjoying each other’s company. At that moment, I knew that all my hard work and sacrifices were worth it.

That morning, after taking our oldest child to kindergarten, I went back home, let our two younger kids play, and worked on my medical report. It was wonderful, but it hit me that my career in hospital wasn’t making a difference in anyone’s life. I needed something that would stretch my limits and push me to grow. My career enabled me to work from home and become a foster (领养) mother, providing safety for a child who needed it desperately.
Monday morning, I grabbed the phone and rang the number I’d found via Google for the nearest Department of Children’s Services. The man on the other end was receptive to my questions and explained the next step of training, involving eight weeks of classes designed to prepare and educate foster parents. We continued through all the classes, the home visits, background checks, and seemingly endless steps.
Five months after our approval, a middle-of-the-night phone call woke me. I aroused my husband and we hurried to East Tennessee Children’s Hospital, where our foster placement awaited us in the ER, ill and malnourished. It didn’t take long for us to realize the full depth of her suffering. Six months later, her half-brother came to us by our request. We now had five children under our care.
On August 12, 2016, our family of seven walked into a small courtroom. The children’s lawyer and social worker were there. With just a few words, our adoption was finalized. These two amazing children weren’t going home, because they were already home. We are their forever family and they are our forever children. We may not be able to change the entire world, but we have changed the world entirely for our new children.
24.How did the author feel about her hospital work?
A.Unusually demanding. B.Filled with challenges.
C.Lacking in motivation. D.Packed with chances.
25.What caused the author to choose to adopt children?
A.She experienced training to raise children properly.
B.She felt sympathetic for abused children she knew
C.She felt confident about her ability to raise children.
D.She desired to have a positive impact on others’ lives.
26.How did the author receive her first foster child?
A.The child was brought to her home by a social worker.
B.She got a midnight call and rushed to a hospital ER.
C.She picked the child up from a kindergarten.
D.The child’s half-brother introduced them.
27.Why did the author appear at the courtroom?
A.To make the adoption officially legal.
B.To receive another adopted child.
C.To put the adopted kids elsewhere.
D.To begin the kids’ adoption in her home.
C
Two billion children in the developing world can’t receive good education—the key to human development. However, technology offers an answer which allows the poor in developing countries to learn. It is a tool which holds the ability to change the lives of the poor, as it provides a means of learning and communicating.
Educational programs must break away from old systems. New companies such as One Laptop(笔记本电脑) Per Child(OLPC), an organization founded by MIT Professor Nicholas Negroponte have been active in solving the world’s education problem.
The Internet has changed the world, allowing educational services to help with the global fight against poverty. Khan Academy is one such service. Like OLPC, it is an organization founded by Harvard Business School graduate Salman Khan with the task of “providing a worldclass education to anyone, anywhere”. The education offered includes a large number of mathrelated topics.
The GMAT Pill Review is another company that trains MBA candidates(应考人) worldwide to prepare for the GMAT exam on both the Quant and Verbal section. Founded by Stanford graduate Zeke Lee, the company offers services which are priced at about 75% less than other similar programs. It allows students from developing countries who might not be able to afford similar courses to have access to these services.
Whether paid or free these services provide educational opportunities to those who would never have had the chance in the past. As a result of the technology revolution(革新), business schools may see more students from different corners of the world. Because of the Internet, people in developing nations have access to better and more affordable educational opportunities. More and more people will try to improve their lives through educational opportunities outside of their homeland—an idea usually uncommon in developing countries.
28.According to the text, technology can ________.
A.improve people’s reading ability. B.solve the problems facing the whole world.
C.help the poor to reduce poverty. D.cause poverty in developing countries.
29.We can learn from the text that Khan Academy aims to ________.
A.help the poor pay for good courses. B.provide every child with a computer.
C.help train MBA candidates. D.make everyone receive a good education.
30.Which of the following about GMAT Pill Review is TRUE?
A.It only accepts students from developing countries.
B.It was started by Professor Nicholas Negroponte.
C.It charges students about 25 percent of other similar programs.
D.The education includes a lot of mathrelated topics.
31.In the past, people in developing countries ________.
A.had no educational opportunities in their homeland.
B.seldom thought of receiving foreign education to change themselves.
C.always believed education was of great importance.
D.wouldn’t leave their homeland to reduce poverty.
D
For some families, birthday parties that often end up with bags of plastic can be a source of stress, or even shame. Many parents say the gifting aspect upsets them. But can a party really be a party without presents?
According to Charlotte Mason-Curl, it’s possible! Like many parents, Mason-Curl experienced climate anxiety after her daughter’s birthday party and became determined to make a change. She wanted to get rid of the usual gift-giving tradition and replace it with something more sustainable. She launched the Kids’ Party Pact — a digital promise to take a low-waste approach to hosting and attending birthday parties. The pact has three parts: agreeing not to use plastic bags; giving secondhand or homemade gifts (or none); and issuing guidance on greener gifts for their own children.
The response from parents has been positive. “I thought we were the only family who had these concerns,” wrote one mother. “So happy other parents feel the same!”
The pact provides suggested wording for invitations to help parents communicate their stance (立场) without causing problems. For example: “Gifts are not required.” If you insist on being a rule breaker, a homemade card or a hand-picked flower would be welcome, but not necessary!
“We’re so truly accustomed not to turning up empty-handed, even if we’re asked to,” Mason-Curl explains. “It’s better to give people some guidance, telling them what to bring, than to tell them not to bring anything, because often they still bring a little something. A little something times 20 equals an alarmingly large amount of waste.”
Thanks to the Kids’ Party Pact, we are reminded that true celebration doesn’t depend on material gifts. By giving up expensive presents, we can focus on precious time with loved ones and protect our planet.

Can housework play a role in our spiritual life? My answer is yes.
Housework puts us in touch with the passage of time. Over time surfaces collect dust. Toilets get dirty. 36 . Things get misplaced. Housework tries to put cleanliness and order back into our homes. Housework whispers to us, “Look around 37 . You too are changing and being changed by time. And so are your loved ones. Remember, live your time well.”
Housework can be rewarding (令人有所收获的). 38 The sink sparkles (洗碗槽闪耀) and the mirror shines. We can see more satisfaction with housework than we can with many other “tasks” — like raising a family, working at the office or running a business.
39 We clean the house so our family, our housemates, or our guests have a wonderful place to live or visit. Even if we live alone, we would still do housework to make our home clean and warm for another important person: ourselves! Housework reminds us: charity begins at home.
Housework can lead to gratitude (感恩). We may not live in a palace, but most of us really have it good. We have a roof over our heads and a floor under our feet. 40 We have heat in the cold months and have air conditioning in the hot months. With every item (物品). we dust, clean or wash, we become aware of how much we have.
A.Everything is changing.
B.Housework is a relative value.
C.Housework is an act of charity.
D.We have windows to look out of.
E.Food in the refrigerator goes bad.
F.I spend a lot of time doing housework.
G.I mean I can see the results of my work.

Every time my son came home from college, he would make our house a terrible mess: dirty clothes, unwashed cups, the unmade bed, and so on. It really 41 me.
This past summer, I talked frankly with my son, trying to figure out his behavior. I was getting angry again about the 42 house. He apologized and said it wasn’t his 43 to drive me crazy; instead, he was being self-involved, and his 44 to do what I asked had nothing to do with me.
He likely hadn’t even 45 half the times I’d asked him to clean up. Each time the task went undone, I grew angrier until I eventually 46 my mind. My son was often truly 47 about why I was so mad. It turned out that the clueless look on his face was real — he wasn’t 48 .

I didn’t get angry right away if I saw a dirty plate or an unmade bed. I 52 reminded him that access to the car depended upon cleaning his room. Sometimes, I even 53 to make his bed or wash his plates, and he appreciated my help.

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。
My father was sixty. Though he had planned on retiring at fifty-five, he was still working hard. For him, raising four children — especially now that my mother had stopped working and was at home full time — meant he couldn’t afford to retire. It also meant he couldn’t make good on something he had promised my mother. “Sweetheart,” he’d say, “I’m going to take you on a cruise (乘船游览).” He still told her that, and only these days he added, “as soon as the kids are out of college.”
I knew that putting all of us kids through college probably meant it was going to be a while before my father achieved his dream of going away with my mother on a cruise — though it didn’t stop him from cutting out ads about cruise vacations! It was cute, but it was kind of sad, too. I remember my grandmother always wanted to go to Nova Scotia. My grandfather would always say, “We’ll go next year, sweetheart.” Then she died. My grandmother never got to see Nova Scotia. I just didn’t want my parents to wait until it was too late.
I decided to save up my money to send my parents on a cruise, even if it was a short three-day cruise. My friends said to me, “Get real! Saving up for a cruise is something you’ll never be able to do.” But I didn’t believe that. It was not like I could send them around the world or anything, but I didn’t think my putting together the money for a short trip was an impossible goal. I was determined that just as my parents had made my dreams come true for all these years from my first bicycle to my first soccer camp — I was going to do all I could to make their dream of going on a cruise come true.
注意:(1) 续写词数应为150个左右;
(2) 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
I started doing part-time jobs and yard work around the neighborhood.

One year later, I finally saved up enough money!
