【解析】
【导语】本文讲述Lucas来中国参加家庭晚餐,学习餐桌礼仪,了解如何通过小动作表达尊重,体现跨文化交流的重要性。
【1题详解】
句意:他准时到达并带了一些花。
根据“he was invited to a family dinner”及“on time”可知,此处指准时到达(arrived);ran(跑)、slept(睡觉)、answered(回答)不符合赴宴语境。
【2题详解】
句意:他的主人李先生热情地欢迎了他并带他去了餐厅。
根据“His host…warmly ”可知,主人应欢迎(welcomed)客人;saw(看见)、chose(选择)、thanked(感谢)语义不符。
【3题详解】
句意:Lucas看到圆桌上摆满了美味的菜肴。
根据“to the dining room”及“a round table full of delicious”可知,桌上应是菜肴(dishes);drinks(饮品)、forks(叉子)、chopsticks(筷子)不能用delicious修饰。
【4题详解】
句意:Lucas学到了关于中国餐桌礼仪的第一课。
根据下文描述的座位、用餐规则可知,是餐桌礼仪(manners);tools(工具)、forms(形式)、ways(方式)不搭配table。
【5题详解】
句意:受尊重的客人通常坐在面对门的位置,主人在旁边。
根据“Once seated”可知,客人应是坐着(sit);stand(站立)、live(居住)、work(工作)和入座场景无关。
【6题详解】
句意:坐好后,Lucas注意到没人正在用餐具。
根据“no one was using their cutlery (餐具)”可知,他是注意到(noticed)了这一现象;planned(计划)、decided(决定)、imagined(想象)不符合“看见没人动餐具”的语境。
【7题详解】
句意:另一位客人解释说,等主人先开始吃饭是礼貌的做法。
根据“no one was using their cutlery (餐具)”及“the host to start eating first”可知,客人要等待(wait for)主人;listen to(倾听)、shout at(冲……大喊)、depend on(依靠)不符合餐桌礼仪。
【8题详解】
句意:当晚餐开始时,Lucas又学到了两条规则。
根据下文“First, don’t stand up to…for dishes that are too far away. Second, never…chopsticks (筷子) upright (竖立着) in rice”可知,是规则(rules);jokes(玩笑)、skills(技能)、dreams(梦想)与后文礼仪要求不匹配。
【9题详解】
句意:首先,不要站起来去够太远的菜。
根据“stand up to…for dishes that are too far away”可知,动作是伸手够。reach for意为“伸手去拿”,固定搭配;ask(询问)、look(看)、pay(支付)无此搭配。
【10题详解】
句意:其次,切勿将筷子竖立地插在米饭中,因为这象征着不吉利。
根据“chopsticks (筷子) upright (竖立着) in rice”可知,动作是把筷子插(stick)在饭里。
【11题详解】
句意:随着用餐进行,李先生将一些食物放在Lucas的盘子里,这象征着尊重与善意。
根据“Mr. Li put some food on Lucas’s plate”及“a…of respect and kindness”可知,主人夹菜这一行为是尊重的象征(symbol);key(钥匙)、list(清单)、thought(想法)语义不通。
【12题详解】
句意:Lucas感谢了他,并把盘子里的食物全都吃光,以表明自己真的珍惜这顿饭。
根据“ate everything on his plate”可知,表明对食物的珍视(valued);accepted(接受)、influenced(影响)、shared(分享)不如valued贴合吃光饭菜表达重视的含义。
【13题详解】
句意:李先生举起杯子说“干杯”。
根据“the toast (干杯)”及常识可知,干杯前应举起(lifted)杯子;hid(藏)、broke(打碎)、cleaned(清洁)和敬酒动作无关。
【14题详解】
句意:Lucas学到杯子要比主人的低一点以示尊重。
根据中国敬酒礼仪,客人杯口应更低(lower)。
【15题详解】
句意:他说,这些习俗教会了他可以通过什么细微举动来表达敬意。
从句中do缺宾语,指代“做的事情”,故用what;how(如何)、that(无实义)、where(哪里)语法不通。

After a nine-year wait, the popular cartoon movie Zootopia finally got its next story. “Zootopia 2” came out in Chinese theaters on November 26, 2025. Judy Hopps, a strong and hopeful rabbit who works as a police officer, and Nick Wilde, her smart fox partner, are back for another exciting trip in the big animal city.
This time, a new animal brings problems to the peaceful city. He is a blue bamboo snake named Gary. During a big party for the city’s birthday, Gary tries to steal an old and important book that has a special secret. To stop him and learn the truth, Judy and Nick have to work in secret.

To find this animal, Judy and Nick must become fugitives and run away from the police. This hard journey tests their loyalty (忠诚) and makes their friendship go through a difficult time.
Movie lovers will be happy to see old friends like the very slow sloth (树懒) Flash and the beautiful singer Gazelle (瞪羚). The first Zootopia movie was very popular in China. People liked its good story and deep ideas. The new movie also made people very excited. Before it began, people in China bought over 182 million yuan of tickets, breaking the record for foreign cartoons. The movie is fun to watch, and it also makes people think about important things like prejudice (偏见) and learning to understand others, just like the first movie did.

【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文,主要介绍了电影《疯狂动物城2》的上映信息、剧情梗概,以及首部影片在中国受欢迎的原因与影片主旨。
【21题详解】
第二段指出“During a big party for the city’s birthday, Gary tries to steal an old and important book that has a special secret.”,Gary在城市生日派对上试图偷走一本古老且藏有特殊秘密的重要书籍。
【22题详解】
第一段描述Judy Hopps时明确指出“Judy Hopps, a strong and hopeful rabbit who works as a police officer…”,因此“strong and hopeful”最符合文中对Judy的性格描写。
【23题详解】
第三段提到“The first Zootopia movie was very popular in China. People liked its good story and deep ideas.”,第一部在中国受欢迎的原因是其精彩的故事和深刻的内涵。
【24题详解】
第二段说明“To find this animal, Judy and Nick must become fugitives and run away from the police.”,由“run away from the police”可推知,“fugitives”指的是“被警察追捕、四处逃亡的人”。
【25题详解】
第三段末尾点明影片主旨“it also makes people think about important things like prejudice and learning to understand others”,引导观众思考偏见与理解他人的重要性。“Don’t judge a book by its cover”意为“不要以貌取人”,与此主旨最为契合。
C
In China, many young people are becoming farmers, but in a very modern way. With drones (无人机), big data (大数据) and smart machines, they are changing what farming looks like.
Wang Huan, 21, grew up in a farming family in Shanxi Province. As a child, he saw how hard traditional farming was. His parents had to carry heavy tools on their shoulders and backs and work hard under the hot sun. It was tiring and slow. Now, by using a drone, Wang can finish in just one day the same work that once took several people nearly a week. Besides drones, Wang also uses other modern machines.
Another young farmer, 22-year-old Ding Zehui, also returned to his village in Shanxi Province after university. He joined a local farmers’ group and helped his family to buy an unmanned seeder (无人驾驶播种机). With the Beidou navigation (导航) system, the machine can work around the clock and plant seeds well. According to Ding, farming machines are also becoming more comfortable, with air conditioning (空调系统) and easier controls.
Smart farming is bringing pride to today’s young farmers. Unlike their parents and grandparents, who see farming as hard work, young farmers feel proud and full of purpose. They depend on technology and use it as a powerful tool to help with farming.
On Douyin, videos of young farmers using drones or AI are very popular, which has encouraged many young people to take up farming. As Wang’s father said, “They learn fast, love the land, and are not afraid of hard work.”
26. What does the underlined word “It” in Paragraph 2 refer to?
A. The hot sun. B. Using a drone.
C. Traditional farming. D. Carrying heavy tools.
27. Which is the right structure of the passage?
A. ①/②③④/⑤ B. ①②/③/④⑤ C. ①/②③/④⑤ D. ①②/③④/⑤
28. What is the main idea of Paragraph 4?
A. Traditional farming is hard work.
B. Young farmers today feel proud of modern farming.
C. Modern machines can make farming faster and easier.
D. The work environment for farmers has greatly improved.
29. What can we learn about young farmers from Wang Huan’s father’s words?
A. They are afraid of change.
B. They are clever and hard-working.
C. They are slower than older farmers.
D. They are more creative with new technology.
30. What is the writer’s purpose in writing this passage?
A. To encourage young people to go back to the countryside.
B. To describe the challenges of traditional farming in China.
C. To explain why traditional farming is better than modern farming.
D. To show how young people are changing farming with modern technology.
【答案】26. C 27. C 28. B 29. B 30. D
【解析】
【导语】本文介绍了中国当下许多年轻人借助无人机、大数据、智能农机等现代技术投身农业,改变传统农业生产面貌的现象,展现了智慧农业给青年农民带来的认同感与影响力。
【26题详解】
根据第二段画线词前文“His parents had to carry heavy tools…and work hard under the hot sun.”可知,父母从事的是繁重的传统农耕劳动;后句“It was tiring and slow”是对这种传统农耕方式的描述,因此“It”指代的是传统农耕。
【27题详解】
第一段总起引出“年轻人用现代方式务农”的话题;第二、三段分别列举王欢和丁泽辉两个具体人物的案例;第四、五段总结现代农耕给年轻人带来的自豪感及社会影响;因此结构为①/②③/④⑤。
【28题详解】
第四段首句“Smart farming is bringing pride to today’s young farmers.”是本段主题句,随后通过对比老一辈和年轻一代的感受,强调了现代年轻农民对智慧农业感到自豪和充满目标感。
【29题详解】
根据最后一段王欢父亲的话“They learn fast, love the land, and are not afraid of hard work.”可知,“learn fast”意味着他们聪明,“not afraid of hard work”意味着他们勤劳。
【30题详解】
通读全文可知,文章通过具体案例和数据,主要介绍了中国年轻人如何利用无人机、大数据等现代技术改变传统农业面貌,并展示了他们的成就和感受。D项“展示年轻人如何用现代技术改变农业”最符合文意。

【31题详解】

【32题详解】
上文问句“Do you smile a lot when you’re happy?”列举开心时的肢体动作,围绕观察自身肢体语言展开。B项“Do you cross your arms when you’re bored?”句式结构完全一致,并列提问无聊时的肢体表现,贴合本段观察身体语言的主题,形成并列举例。
【33题详解】
本段小标题为“Learn from others.”,后文提问他人激动、紧张时的肢体反应。E项“Look at how other people show their feelings without using words.”承接小标题,点明向他人学习的具体做法——观察他人非语言的情绪表达方式,开启下文内容。
【34题详解】

A new snack called “milk skin (奶皮子) tanghulu” is sweeping across China. Some people love it for its delicious taste. Some people like its good-looking appearance. Also, some people enjoy it because it brings back sweet childhood memories.
Milk skin tanghulu wins the hearts of young people with its creative combination (结合) of tastes. Do you know how to make it? Sellers first string (串起) fruits like hawthorn (山楂) and strawberries on a stick. Then, they cover the fruits with a piece of soft, chewy milk skin. Finally they pour a shiny layer of hard sugar over it. The snack became famous through short videos on social media like Douyin and Xiaohongshu. Some food lovers shared their experiences of eating milk skin tanghulu, which made it popular online.
Milk skin tanghulu keeps traditional food culture and adds something new to it. Unlike some passing trends (短暂的潮流), milk skin tanghulu carries deep cultural meaning. The success of it shows that tradition doesn’t have to stay the same—with creativity, it can shine again in modern times.
However, the snack also brings some problems. A stick often costs 20 to 30 yuan, reaching up to 98 yuan in cities like Shanghai. Health experts also worry about its high sugar and fat content. Too much sugar can cause skin problems and other health risks, so it’s not a good choice to eat it every day.
Milk skin tanghulu not only meets people’s tastes, but also is a mixture of old and new. It’s necessary for us to enjoy it wisely.

After a nine-year wait, the popular cartoon movie Zootopia finally got its next story. “Zootopia 2” came out in Chinese theaters on November 26, 2025. Judy Hopps, a strong and hopeful rabbit who works as a police officer, and Nick Wilde, her smart fox partner, are back for another exciting trip in the big animal city.

In China, many young people are becoming farmers, but in a very modern way. With drones (无人机), big data (大数据) and smart machines, they are changing what farming looks like.
Wang Huan, 21, grew up in a farming family in Shanxi Province. As a child, he saw how hard traditional farming was. His parents had to carry heavy tools on their shoulders and backs and work hard under the hot sun. It was tiring and slow. Now, by using a drone, Wang can finish in just one day the same work that once took several people nearly a week. Besides drones, Wang also uses other modern machines.
Another young farmer, 22-year-old Ding Zehui, also returned to his village in Shanxi Province after university. He joined a local farmers’ group and helped his family to buy an unmanned seeder (无人驾驶播种机). With the Beidou navigation (导航) system, the machine can work around the clock and plant seeds well. According to Ding, farming machines are also becoming more comfortable, with air conditioning (空调系统) and easier controls.
Smart farming is bringing pride to today’s young farmers. Unlike their parents and grandparents, who see farming as hard work, young farmers feel proud and full of purpose. They depend on technology and use it as a powerful tool to help with farming.
On Douyin, videos of young farmers using drones or AI are very popular, which has encouraged many young people to take up farming. As Wang’s father said, “They learn fast, love the land, and are not afraid of hard work.”
26. What does the underlined word “It” in Paragraph 2 refer to?
A. The hot sun. B. Using a drone.
C. Traditional farming. D. Carrying heavy tools.
27. Which is the right structure of the passage?
A. ①/②③④/⑤ B. ①②/③/④⑤ C. ①/②③/④⑤ D. ①②/③④/⑤
28. What is the main idea of Paragraph 4?
A. Traditional farming is hard work.
B. Young farmers today feel proud of modern farming.
C. Modern machines can make farming faster and easier.
D. The work environment for farmers has greatly improved.
29. What can we learn about young farmers from Wang Huan’s father’s words?
A. They are afraid of change.
B. They are clever and hard-working.
C. They are slower than older farmers.
D. They are more creative with new technology.
30. What is the writer’s purpose in writing this passage?
A. To encourage young people to go back to the countryside.
B. To describe the challenges of traditional farming in China.
C. To explain why traditional farming is better than modern farming.
D. To show how young people are changing farming with modern technology.

A new snack called “milk skin (奶皮子) tanghulu” is sweeping across China. Some people love it for its delicious taste. Some people like its good-looking appearance. Also, some people enjoy it because it brings back sweet childhood memories.
Milk skin tanghulu wins the hearts of young people with its creative combination (结合) of tastes. Do you know how to make it? Sellers first string (串起) fruits like hawthorn (山楂) and strawberries on a stick. Then, they cover the fruits with a piece of soft, chewy milk skin. Finally they pour a shiny layer of hard sugar over it. The snack became famous through short videos on social media like Douyin and Xiaohongshu. Some food lovers shared their experiences of eating milk skin tanghulu, which made it popular online.
Milk skin tanghulu keeps traditional food culture and adds something new to it. Unlike some passing trends (短暂的潮流), milk skin tanghulu carries deep cultural meaning. The success of it shows that tradition doesn’t have to stay the same—with creativity, it can shine again in modern times.
However, the snack also brings some problems. A stick often costs 20 to 30 yuan, reaching up to 98 yuan in cities like Shanghai. Health experts also worry about its high sugar and fat content.
