For us, it seems so natural to look into the mirror several times a day. In fact, we can’t live without mirrors. Today mirrors are everywhere from your room to your father’s car. They are helpful in many ways. The mirror has a long history. But do you know who invented it and when it was invented?
The first mirrors used were natural mirrors such as reflection in water. The first man-made mirrors were made out of the rock. Later, people used different metals such as bronze (青铜) to make mirrors. Throughout history, different types of mirrors have been used in many different cultures at the same time.
The first glass mirror was invented by a German named Justus in 1835. He painted silver behind glass to produce the glass mirror. Aluminum (铝) is the main metal used for mirrors now.

We also often use mirrors during the day to keep ourselves tidy.
Mirrors are important for cars, too. If cars don’t have mirrors, it’s impossible to drive. This is because drivers can’t see other cars coming. Of course, that would lead to many car accidents.

For more than 30 years, the 50-year-old Zhu Yanjun had been a migrant worker (农民工) in different cities like many other people from the country; but what made him ________ was his strong passion (热情) for reading poetry and books.
In early February, 2023, Zhu became well-known when he became the runner-up in the annual Chinese Poetry Competition hosted by CCTV.

Reading poetry helps Zhu stay calm and he never complains about hard work. “Whenever I face any difficulty, I think of Chairman Mao’s quotation: ‘Nothing in the world is difficult for one who sets his mind to it’,” he told China Daily.
Because of his good performance at the poetry competition, the government in Jingning county decided to hire him to work at the local cultural center. He started to work there on March 10.

In early February, 2023, Zhu became well-known when he became the runner-up in the annual Chinese Poetry Competition hosted by CCTV.

Reading poetry helps Zhu stay calm and he never complains about hard work. “Whenever I face any difficulty, I think of Chairman Mao’s quotation: ‘Nothing in the world is difficult for one who sets his mind to it’,” he told China Daily.

第一节:完形填空(共6小题,每小题1分,共6分)
Have you got an e-reader? Are you thinking of getting one? We asked some e-reader owners to give us their opinions.
There are many things that people like about e-readers. “E-readers are really ____21____, weighing less than most paper books,” said Nathan Jones, a market researcher. “You can’t hold the book and turn the pages with one hand. An e-reader is more ____22____ to read in bed or on a sofa.” Another big advantage is that you can store hundreds of books on them. “E-readers are perfect for travel, too,” said Kiera Smith. The search functions (功能) are also popular. “You can ____23____ a character by its name. That’s really useful,” said Megan Malone, a saleswoman.
One user liked the function for increasing font (字体) size. “I’ve got poor eyesight,” explained Harvey, an engineer. “But the e-reader is perfect for me as I can ____24____ the font size.” And Jennifer Saunders said, “I like e-readers because they’re environmentally friendly. If we buy an e-book, we’re helping to ___25___ trees as it doesn’t use paper.” “Best of all is that there are hundreds of free books online. And they’re all free to download,” said another user.
But some people don’t like e-readers. One of the main ____26____ is that people can’t find certain titles. “If you want an older book, it won’t be found. At least that was my experience,” said Daisy Madison, an estate agent. Others complained about the small delay (延迟) in turning pages.
So, what do you think?
21. A. light B. heavy C. cheap
22. A. important B. necessary C. comfortable
23. A. care for B. wait for C. look for
24. A. improve B. increase C. reduce
25. A. waste B. plant C. save
26. A. results B. reasons C. differences
【答案】21. A 22. C 23. C 24. B 25. C 26. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文,主要介绍了不同使用者对电子阅读器的评价,分别阐述电子阅读器的诸多优点与存在的弊端。
【21题详解】
句意:电子阅读器真的很轻,比大多数纸质书都轻。
根据“weighing less than most paper books”可知,这里是在强调其重量优势。light意为“轻的”,符合语境;heavy“重的”与文意相反;cheap“便宜的”文中未提及。
【22题详解】
句意:电子阅读器在床上或沙发上阅读更舒服。
根据前文提到纸质书无法单手翻页的不便,可知此处对比强调电子阅读器更舒适,应用comfortable“舒适的”。important“重要的”和 necessary“必要的”无法体现这种对比带来的体验改善。
【23题详解】
句意:你可以按名字查找角色。
根据“The search functions are also popular”可知,此处指搜索查找功能。look for 意为“寻找”,符合搜索功能的语境;care for“照顾”和 wait for“等待”均不符合逻辑。
【24题详解】
句意:但是电子阅读器对我来说很完美,因为我可以增大字体。
根据上文“the function for increasing font size”和“I’ve got poor eyesight”可知,视力不好需要增大字体,应用increase“增大”。improve“改善”和reduce“缩小”不符合视力不好者的需求。
【25题详解】
句意:如果我们购买电子书,我们在帮助节约树木,因为它不使用纸张。
根据“as it doesn’t use paper”可知,不使用纸张意味着节约树木,应用save“节约”。waste“浪费”和plant“种植”逻辑不通。
【26题详解】
句意:主要的理由之一是人们找不到某些书名。
根据“But some people don’t like e-readers”可知,下文是在解释不喜欢的原因,应用reasons“原因”。results“结果”和differences“差异”不符合逻辑关系。
第二节:选词填空(共7小题,每小题1分,共7分)
根据短文内容,用方框中所给单词填空,使文章通顺完整。(每词限用一次,有一个多余选项)
A. If B. managed C. Though D. remains E. difficult F. waiting G. used H. also
The pyramids (金字塔) have been lying on the lower west bank of the Nile for nearly 4, 000 years. They are not only the burial places for the pharaohs (法老) but ____27____ the treasure of all human beings. We call them jinzita because of their shape which looks like the Chinese character “jin”! Until now, there have still been plenty of mysteries ____28____ to be solved!
The largest pyramid is the Pyramid of Khufu: 756 feet long on each side and 481 feet tall. There are about 2.3 million blocks (石块). How the ancient builders ____29____ to build such a large structure has never been fully answered, but the effort clearly required brains and brawn (体力). If 7-ton trucks are ____30____ to pick up all the blocks, we need about 978, 286 trucks!
____31____ there were enough workers, they couldn’t carry the heavy blocks. Some people think they might put the woody stick under the blocks as the wheel. But it needs a lot of wood. The number of trees can’t meet the requirement. Others hold an opinion that they used the water-transport (水上运输). However, with no tool to load (装载) or unload the blocks, it seems more ____32____ than the first idea. In fact, all the blocks must be carried from the east of the Nile. So the mystery ____33____ a mystery now!
【答案】27. H 28. F
29. B 30. G
31. C 32. E
33. D
【解析】
【导语】本文介绍了金字塔的建筑规模与建造之谜,尽管有多种理论解释,但至今仍是个未解之谜。
【27题详解】
句意:它们不仅是法老的埋葬地,也是全人类的宝藏。
not only... but also...是固定并列结构,意为“不但…… 而且……”,此处直接用原形also。
【28题详解】
句意:直到现在,仍然有许多谜团等待被解开。
句子结构:there be+名词+doing,现在分词作后置定语;根据语境,mysteries(谜团)是等待被解开的;wait to be done意为“等待着被”,所以wait变为现在分词waiting。
【29题详解】
句意:古代建造者如何成功建成如此巨大的结构从未得到完全解答。manage to do sth.意为“设法做成某事”,为固定搭配,符合语境。修建金字塔是远古过去发生的事情,要用一般过去时,manage的过去式为managed。
【30题详解】
句意:如果用7吨的卡车来运送所有的石块,大约需要978286辆卡车。根据语境,此处指卡车被用来运送石头,用use。trucks与use之间是被动关系,be used to do sth.意为“被用来做某事”,此处填过去分词used。
【31题详解】
句意:虽然有足够的工人,但他们也无法搬运这些沉重的石块。前后句意存在转折/让步关系(有工人也无法搬运),备选词中只有Though符合,意为“虽然,尽管”,引导让步状语从句。
【32题详解】
句意:然而,由于没有工具来装载或卸载这些石块,这似乎比第一个想法更难。more后接多音节形容词构成比较级,备选词中只有difficult为形容词,意为“困难的”,符合语境。
【33题详解】
句意:所以这个谜团现在仍然是个谜!根据语境,此处表示“这个谜团依旧存在”,备选词中remains符合句意。主语the mystery是单数,且时间状语是now,谓语动词用一般现在时单三形式remains,意为“保持,仍然是”。
第三节:语法填空(共8小题,每小题1分,共8分)
阅读下面短文,在空白处填入一个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。请将答案填写在答题卡指定位置。
During the Tang Dynasty (618-907) in China, Buddhism (佛教) became very popular. There was a strong need ____34____ (produce) a large number of Buddhist scriptures (经文). As a matter of fact, copying by hand could not meet the rising demand. So, ancient Chinese craftsmen (工匠) came up with a new way to make lots of copies—woodblock printing, which promoted the ____35____ (develop) and progress of culture.
Traditional woodblock printing can ____36____ (divide) into four main steps: writing, carving (雕刻), printing, and binding. Each of these steps ____37____ (include) many smaller tasks, and in total, about 30 steps are needed to create a woodblock print.
Carving is at the heart of woodblock printing ____38____ this step can make or break the final print. Skilled craftsmen carve characters and pictures to create raised areas or lines that will hold ink for printing.
One famous example ____39____ woodblock printing is the Diamond Sutra, a Buddhist scripture printed in 868. It’s considered the ____40____ (early) dated printed book and is kept in the British Library. This ancient art form not only shows the wisdom of our ancestors but also the beauty of Chinese craftsmanship over the centuries.
Before printing, writing let people share their thoughts, but the invention of printing made knowledge something everyone could ____41____ (easy) access and enjoy.
【答案】34.
to produce 35.
development
36.
be divided 37.
includes 38.
because 39.
of 40.
earliest 41.
easily
【解析】
【导语】本文主要介绍了唐代木版印刷术的背景、流程步骤及其对文化传播的贡献,展现了中国古代工匠的智慧。
【34题详解】
句意:迫切需要生产大量佛经。need后接动词不定式作后置定语,表示“需要做某事”。根据语法合理性,此处应用不定式to produce。
【35题详解】
句意:雕版印刷推动了文化的发展与进步。the为定冠词,且并列连词and后接名词progress,所以空处应为名词,develop的名词形式是development。
【36题详解】
句意:传统木版印刷可以被分为四个主要步骤。主语printing与动词divide之间是被动关系,情态动词can后接be done,填be divided。
【37题详解】
句意:每个步骤都包含许多小任务。主语Each是单数,描述客观事实应用一般现在时,谓语动词用单数第三人称,填includes。
【38题详解】
句意:雕刻是雕版印刷的核心环节,因为这道工序直接决定成品印刷品的成败。前后句之间存在因果关系,后句解释前句的原因,应用表示原因的连词,填because。
【39题详解】
句意:雕版印刷一个著名的实物例证就是《金刚经》,一份印制于868年的佛教经文。example常与介词of搭配,表示“……的例子”,填of。
【40题详解】
句意:它被认定为现存最早有明确纪年的印刷书籍,现收藏于大英图书馆。句中有比较范围(现存所有有明确日期的印刷书),且定冠词the后接形容词最高级,表示“最早的”,填earliest。
【41题详解】
句意:印刷术的诞生让所有人都能够轻松获取和享受知识。此处修饰动词access和enjoy,应用副词形式,easy的副词是easily。

_______________________________________
【答案】
It is well known that tea was invented by a Chinese ruler called Shennong about 5,000 years ago./As we all know, tea was invented by a Chinese ruler called Shennong about 5,000 years ago.
【解析】
【详解】“众所周知,茶是由一个叫神农的中国统治者在大约五千年前发明的。”译为It is well known that tea was invented by a Chinese ruler called Shennong about 5,000 years ago./As we all know, tea was invented by a Chinese ruler called Shennong about 5,000 years ago.。“众所周知”译为It is well known that…或As we all know…,前者为固定句型,后者为状语从句;“茶是由……发明的”译为tea was invented by…,用一般过去时的被动语态;“一个叫神农的中国统治者”译为a Chinese ruler called Shennong,其中过去分词短语called Shennong作后置定语修饰ruler;“在大约五千年前”译为about 5,000 years ago。
43. 中国与西方国家的茶贸易发生在19世纪。
________________
【答案】The tea trade from China to Western countries took place in the 19th century.
【解析】
【详解】“中国与西方国家的茶贸易”为the tea trade from China to Western countries;“发生”为take place;“在19世纪”为in the 19th century,表示过去的是时间,该句应用一般过去时,谓语动词用过去式,故填The tea trade from China to Western countries took place in the 19th century.
44. 据说在过去,英国女人喝下午茶时应当戴上帽子。
_______________________________________
【答案】
It is said that in the past, English women should wear hats when having afternoon tea.
【解析】
【详解】“据说在过去,英国女人喝下午茶时应当戴上帽子。”译为It is said that in the past, English women should wear hats when having afternoon tea.。“据说”译为It is said that...,为固定句型,表示“人们说/据说”;“在过去”译为in the past,作时间状语;“英国女人”译为English women;“应当做某事”译为should do sth.,此处用should wear表示“应当戴”;“戴上帽子”译为wear hats;“在喝下午茶时”译为when having afternoon tea,其中when引导时间状语从句的省略形式(省略了they were),现在分词短语having afternoon tea作时间状语。
45. 你知道学校里知道茶文化的学生数量吗?不到八百人。
_______________________________________
【答案】
Do you know the number of students who know about tea culture in the school?
Less than eight hundred.
【解析】
【详解】这两句译为“Do you know the number of students who know about tea culture in the school? Less than eight hundred.”。问句是一般疑问句,用一般现在时。“你知道……吗?”译为“Do you know...?”。“……的数量”是固定搭配“the number of...”;“学生”用复数名词students;“知道茶文化的学生”需用定语从句修饰students,即“students who know about tea culture”,先行词students指人,用关系代词who引导定语从句,who在从句中作主语;“知道,了解”是动词短语know about,先行词为复数,定语从句中谓语动词用原形;“茶文化”是名词短语tea culture。答句中,“不到”用固定短语“less than”。“八百”是具体数字,hundred后不加s,即“eight hundred”。注意句首单词首字母大写和标点符号。

【解析】
【导语】本篇是一篇记叙文。主要讲述了Tommy把父母送给他的机器人生日礼物拿到了学校,在一个角落里他偷偷地跟好朋友炫耀,被英语老师发现了,让他们停下正在做的事,因为机器人可以按照命令执行类似人类的动作,结果机器人也停下了动作,朝老师走过去,同学和老师都大笑起来,最后,老师允许学生第二天带着机器人来上课,但是只限于一天。
【48题详解】
根据“He lifted the robot, out from his school bag.”他把机器人从书包里拿了出来,可知,他把机器人放在了书包里。故填In his school bag.
【49题详解】
根据“In his school, toys were not allowed and pupils could be severely punished for breaking the rule.” 在他学校允许拿玩具,学生违反这个规定可能会受到严厉惩罚,由此可知,Tommy不愿意让老师注意到机器人是因为学校不允许带玩具。故填Because toys were not allowed in his school and pupils could be severely punished for breaking the rule.
【50题详解】
根据“After the pupils reached the canteen, Tommy brought Jim to a corner of the school to show off his new toy.”可知,Tommy把Jim带到学校的一个角落炫耀他的新玩具,不是食堂里。故填No, he didn’t.

【52题详解】
根据“Jim was very excited as the robot could move on his command and perform human like actions.”和第四段“stop what you are doing and come here.”老师让孩子们停止正在做的事,到老师身边去,机器人也听到了指令并执行,因此机器人才会朝着老师走去。故填Because the robot moved on Miss Tan’s command.
【53题详解】
根据“Alright boys, you have made a big mistake. As a punishment, I want you to …but only for tomorrow.”可知,孩子们犯了一个大错误,Miss Tan要惩罚他们,她想让他们不再与机器人玩耍,只允许明天带它过来。“stop playing with the robot.”符合题意。故填stop playing with the robot.
