【详解】句意:——我听说伦敦的人们排长队买中国小笼包。——是的,那里没有人能拒绝它。

A. receive B. reduce C. refuse

【解析】
【导语】本文主要介绍了肢体语言在不同文化中的差异,列举了微笑、眼神、触碰及手势等例子,强调旅行前了解当地习俗的重要性。
【16题详解】
句意:肢体语言是一种无需言语就能交流情感与信息的有效方式。
根据“feelings and messages without words”可知,肢体语言用于传达信息,应用communicate。hide“隐藏”与语境相反,send“发送”通常不接feelings。
【17题详解】
句意:然而,不同的文化可能会用自己的方式理解手势。
后文都在讲不同文化对同一种肢体动作的不同解读,因此这里是指不同的文化可能会用自己的方式理解手势,应用understand。take“拿”,doubt“怀疑”不符合语境逻辑。
【18题详解】
句意:但在有些地方,人们紧张或是害羞时也会微笑。
根据“but”转折及“or shy”可知,此处指负面情绪,应用nervous。painful“痛苦的”程度过重,joyful“快乐的”与转折逻辑冲突。
【19题详解】
句意:在日本,人们经常避免长时间直视他人的眼睛,因为这样做会显得不礼貌。
根据“because it can seem impolite”可知,长时间对视不礼貌,人们会刻意避开,应用avoid,表示避开。consider“考虑”,practice“练习”,不符合语境逻辑。
【20题详解】
句意:另一方面,在巴西,人们交谈时会站得很近,还会触碰对方的手臂,以此表达友好。
根据“people stand close to each other and touch arms during conversations”可知,近距离肢体接触代表友好亲近,应用friendship。sadness“悲伤”,surprise“惊讶”,和该社交行为表意不符。
【21题详解】
句意:但在德国这类国家,过多的肢体接触可能会让人感到不舒服。
根据“However”转折及“touching others too much”可知,德国不习惯亲密肢体接触,过度触碰会带来不舒服的感受,应用uncomfortable。unsafe“不安全的”,unlucky“不幸的”,不符合语境逻辑。
【22题详解】
句意:如果你不够留意,这类文化差异就会引发麻烦。
前文提到在保加利亚,点头表示否定、摇头表示肯定,说明这种差异如果不留心就会引发麻烦,应用trouble。joy“欢乐”,silence“沉默”都不符合逻辑。
【23题详解】
句意:即便是手部手势,也很难做到通用易懂。
后文举例竖大拇指在不同地区含义天差地别,说明即使是手势也可能很难理解,应用hard。easy“容易的”,clear“清晰的”都和后文内容相悖。
【24题详解】
句意:竖大拇指这个手势在美国是善意的,但在中东部分地区,它有时会被视作粗鲁。
根据“but…seen as rude”可知,存在有时被视为粗鲁的情况,应用sometimes。never“从不”与事实不符,still“仍然”逻辑不通。
【25题详解】
句意:那里的人们会改用整只手来示意。
前文说很多亚洲国家用手指指人不礼貌,所以那里的人会用整只手取而代之,应用instead。together“一起”,again“再次”都不符合替代的逻辑。

【27题详解】

B
I still remember the day my mother stopped me, saying, “Lisa, you are the eldest. Please be careful with your words, especially in front of your younger siblings (兄弟姐妹).” I didn’t think I said anything wrong while talking to my friend on the phone. However, as I hung up, I saw my younger sister and brother watching me. Something changed inside me right then.
Now, I notice the same thing everywhere. When I see children on the road, my eyes always find the eldest. Such children care about the younger ones or protect them. It reminds me that being the first child means carrying a lot of responsibilities (责任), no matter where you come from. No one tells you what to do. It’s just what a “good eldest sibling” does.
The feelings and duties build up slowly. It takes months or even years. I see this change in small moments. One day, I saw my younger brother fall and ran to him without thinking. Another time, when I got home, my younger sister asked me to help with her project. Although I was tired, we worked together and finished it.
These experiences make me feel strong and proud. Seeing them smile and feel safe is all I need. I set an example by being there for them. This is the pride (自豪) and responsibility of being the eldest.
31. Why did Mum stop Lisa when she was talking on the phone?
A. To tell her a story. B. To ask her a question.
C. To remind her to watch her words. D. To ask her to help with a project.
32. According to the writer, who tells the eldest child what to do?
A. Their teachers. B. Their parents. C. Their siblings. D. No one.
33. What can we infer (推断) about the eldest sibling’s duties?
A. They are different in each country.
B. They begin when the eldest grows up.
C. They develop quietly over time.
D. They start naturally when the eldest is born.
34. How does the writer develop her idea in the third paragraph?
A. By listing the reasons.
B. By introducing her family.
C. By giving examples.
D. By comparing her brother with her sister.
35. Why does the writer write the passage?
A. To share funny stories about siblings.
B. To ask parents to treat every child well.
C. To discuss the challenges of taking care of children.
D. To describe the role and the feelings of the oldest sibling.
【答案】31. C 32. D 33. C 34. C 35. D
【解析】
【导语】本文作者通过自身经历和观察,讲述了作为家中长子/长女所承担的责任并非外界强加,而是在日常小事中慢慢积累形成的,同时这种责任也带来了内心的自豪与成长。
【31题详解】
第一段提到:“I still remember the day my mother stopped me, saying, ‘Lisa, you are the eldest. Please be careful with your words...’” 妈妈直接告诉Lisa要注意言辞,所以目的是提醒她说话要小心。
【32题详解】
第二段提到:“No one tells you what to do.” 作者明确说没有人告诉长子/长女该做什么。
【33题详解】
第三段提到:“The feelings and duties build up slowly. It takes months or even years.” 这些责任是随着时间的推移,慢慢积累的。
【34题详解】
第三段中“One day, I saw my younger brother fall and ran to him without thinking. Another time, when I got home, my younger sister asked me to help with her project. Although I was tired, we worked together and finished it.”,作者举了两个具体例子:一次是看到弟弟摔倒立刻跑过去,另一次是虽然疲惫但帮妹妹完成项目。这些都是她亲身经历的事例。
【35题详解】
文中第一段讲被提醒注意言行,第二段讲处处看到长子/长女的责任,第三段讲责任慢慢形成并用例子证明,第四段总结这种责任带来的自豪,因此全文的目的是描述身为长女/长子的责任与自豪感。

Seasonal Sleep Problem
Spring has arrived. What comes with it is the feeling of tiredness during the day. This is commonly known as “spring fatigue”. Let’s take a closer look.
Why are we sleepy in spring?
● The warmer weather
The weather gets warmer in spring. The warm air makes our bodies feel relaxed and sleepy. The capillaries (毛细血管) relax as well. More blood flows to the surface, while less goes to the organs (器官) and brain.
● Biological clock
Your biological clock (生物钟) has not been adjusted in accordance with (依照) the seasonal change of day and night. In winter, we sleep more because it’s cold and dark. In spring, our body needs time to adjust to the new season.
● Pollen allergies (花粉过敏)
The flowers and plants start to grow. They release pollen into the air. Some people may have allergies, which can make them feel tired.
● What can we do to fight spring sleepiness?
You can open the window to let cool air in. The cool breeze will make you awake. You can also do some exercise, like running or jumping. Exercise can help adjust your metabolism (新陈代谢) and increase blood circulation (循环). This sends more oxygen to the brain and makes you less sleepy. Eating healthy food is important too. Try to eat more fruits and vegetables. They give you energy.
Finally, make sure you get enough sleep at night. Go to bed early and you can enjoy the beautiful spring season.
41. Why do people need to adjust to their biological clock?
A. Because they sleep too much in winter.
B. Because the days are shorter in spring.
C. Because the weather is too hot.
D. Because the days and nights change in length.
42. Which of the following is TRUE?
A. Eating healthy food is not important in fighting spring sleepiness.
B. The biological clock adjusts quickly to the new season in spring.
C. The capillaries contract in spring, causing less blood to flow to the surface.
D. Following the tips can help you enjoy spring without feeling too sleepy.
43. Who might not feel spring fatigue according to the passage?
A. People who sleep a lot in winter.
B. People who exercise regularly.
C. People who have pollen allergies.
D. People who stay indoors all day.
44. What does the underlined word “fatigue” mean in Paragraph 1?
A. Hunger. B. Thirst. C. Tiredness. D. Happiness.
45. What is the purpose of the passage?
①To explain why people feel sleepy in spring.
②To suggest ways to deal with spring sleepiness.
③To talk about the importance of exercise.
④To discuss the benefits of healthy eating.
A. ①② B. ②③ C. ③④ D. ①④

根据文中“Biological clock”部分“Your biological clock has not been adjusted in accordance with the seasonal change of day and night.”可知,生物钟需要调整是因为昼夜的季节性变化(即昼夜长短的变化),the days and nights change in length符合语境。
【42题详解】
根据文中最后一段“Go to bed early and you can enjoy the beautiful spring season.”可知遵循这些建议可以帮助你在春天不那么困倦并享受春天,D项正确。
【43题详解】
根据文中“What can we do to fight spring sleepiness?”部分“Exercise can help adjust your metabolism and increase blood circulation. This sends more oxygen to the brain and makes you less sleepy.”可知,经常锻炼的人可以促进血液循环,减少睡意,因此可能不会感到春困。
【44题详解】
根据第一段中“What comes with it is the feeling of tiredness during the day. This is commonly known as ‘spring fatigue’.”可知,春天到来伴随的是白天的困倦感,这通常被称为“春困”,因此fatigue意为“疲劳,困倦”,Tiredness符合语境。
【45题详解】
根据文章结构可知,前半部分(Why are we sleepy in spring?)解释了人们在春天感到困倦的原因,对应①;后半部分(What can we do to fight spring sleepiness?)给出了应对春困的建议,对应②。

V.情景交际(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)
根据情景提示,用得体的英语完成下列对话。
51. A: ____________________? I called you but nobody answered.
B: At eleven last night? I was taking a shower.
【答案】
What were you doing at eleven last night
【解析】
【详解】A提到打电话没人接,而B的回答“At eleven last night? I was taking a shower.”是在描述昨晚十一点正在做的事,因此句子应询问昨晚十一点在做什么,用what提问,且应使用过去进行时,“was/were+动词的现在分词”,答句主语为“I”,问句主语应为“you”,be动词用were,位于主语前,句首单词的首字母要大写。
52. A: I’m going to a Chinese friend’s house for dinner. ____________________?
B: In China, we usually shake hands. Sometimes we nod our heads.
【答案】
What should I do when I meet him/her?
(或 What am I supposed to do when I meet him/her?)
【解析】
【详解】B的回答是“In China, we usually shake hands. Sometimes we nod our heads.”这是在描述见面时的礼仪习俗和动作。根据B的回答可知,A询问的是去中国朋友家见面时应该做什么。询问建议或习俗常用句型“What should I do...?”或“What am I supposed to do...?”。 结合语境(去朋友家)和横线长度,补充时间状语“when I meet him/her”使句意更完整准确。故答案为What should I do when I meet him/her?(或 What am I supposed to do when I meet him/her?)
53. 情景交际
A: ____________________?
B: I fell off the bike and broke my leg.
【答案】
What happened?/What’s wrong?/What’s the matter?
【解析】
【详解】B回答“I fell off the bike and broke my leg.”我从自行车上摔下来摔断了腿,因此A询问对方发生了什么或怎么了,用What happened?/What’s wrong?/What’s the matter?
54. A: ____________________?
B: Of course you can. I’ll lend the book to you as soon as I finish reading it.
【答案】
Can I borrow your book
【解析】
【详解】根据答句“Of course you can. I’ll lend the book to you as soon as I finish reading it.”,可知问句是请求借书,且B表示同意。英语中请求借用某物常用“Can I borrow your book?”的句型,符合语境。
55. A: Have you finished your book report?
B: ____________________. But I have done the most difficult part of it.
【答案】
Not yet
【解析】
【详解】A询问是否写完读书报告,B后句说明尚未完成,但已经做完最难的部分,结合转折连词but的逻辑可知,此处表达还未完成,可用“Not yet”,用来回应现在完成时的一般疑问句。

I still remember the day my mother stopped me, saying, “Lisa, you are the eldest. Please be careful with your words, especially in front of your younger siblings (兄弟姐妹).” I didn’t think I said anything wrong while talking to my friend on the phone. However, as I hung up, I saw my younger sister and brother watching me. Something changed inside me right then.
Now, I notice the same thing everywhere. When I see children on the road, my eyes always find the eldest. Such children care about the younger ones or protect them. It reminds me that being the first child means carrying a lot of responsibilities (责任), no matter where you come from. No one tells you what to do. It’s just what a “good eldest sibling” does.
The feelings and duties build up slowly. It takes months or even years. I see this change in small moments. One day, I saw my younger brother fall and ran to him without thinking. Another time, when I got home, my younger sister asked me to help with her project. Although I was tired, we worked together and finished it.
These experiences make me feel strong and proud. Seeing them smile and feel safe is all I need. I set an example by being there for them. This is the pride (自豪) and responsibility of being the eldest.
31. Why did Mum stop Lisa when she was talking on the phone?
A. To tell her a story. B. To ask her a question.
C. To remind her to watch her words. D. To ask her to help with a project.
32. According to the writer, who tells the eldest child what to do?
A. Their teachers. B. Their parents. C. Their siblings. D. No one.
33. What can we infer (推断) about the eldest sibling’s duties?
A. They are different in each country.
B. They begin when the eldest grows up.
C. They develop quietly over time.
D. They start naturally when the eldest is born.
34. How does the writer develop her idea in the third paragraph?
A. By listing the reasons.
B. By introducing her family.
C. By giving examples.
D. By comparing her brother with her sister.
35. Why does the writer write the passage?
A. To share funny stories about siblings.
B. To ask parents to treat every child well.
C. To discuss the challenges of taking care of children.
D. To describe the role and the feelings of the oldest sibling.
C

Seasonal Sleep Problem
Spring has arrived. What comes with it is the feeling of tiredness during the day. This is commonly known as “spring fatigue”. Let’s take a closer look.
Why are we sleepy in spring?
● The warmer weather
The weather gets warmer in spring. The warm air makes our bodies feel relaxed and sleepy. The capillaries (毛细血管) relax as well. More blood flows to the surface, while less goes to the organs (器官) and brain.
● Biological clock
Your biological clock (生物钟) has not been adjusted in accordance with (依照) the seasonal change of day and night. In winter, we sleep more because it’s cold and dark. In spring, our body needs time to adjust to the new season.
● Pollen allergies (花粉过敏)
The flowers and plants start to grow. They release pollen into the air. Some people may have allergies, which can make them feel tired.
● What can we do to fight spring sleepiness?
You can open the window to let cool air in. The cool breeze will make you awake. You can also do some exercise, like running or jumping. Exercise can help adjust your metabolism (新陈代谢) and increase blood circulation (循环). This sends more oxygen to the brain and makes you less sleepy. Eating healthy food is important too. Try to eat more fruits and vegetables. They give you energy.
Finally, make sure you get enough sleep at night. Go to bed early and you can enjoy the beautiful spring season.
41. Why do people need to adjust to their biological clock?
A. Because they sleep too much in winter.
B. Because the days are shorter in spring.
