You will probably love it. I know I did. You should join some sports or activities that will make your high school experience more enjoyable. Good luck! Sharon, Aged 22 The most important thing to keep in mind when going into high school is to be yourself. Besides, I don’t know what your middle school was like, but high school teachers will not care about things such as how much homework you already have in one night. It’s best to learn to deal with things and manage your time wisely so you can achieve everything you need to do. Eddie, Aged 20 When I started high school, I was really nervous too, especially since I had been home-schooled (家中教学) all through middle school and didn’t really know anyone. I suppose the best advice would be to just relax. The first couple of days can be a little bit hard, but things will become easier before you know it. David, Aged 19 I’m not going to lie. The first day is kind of frightening. But you’ll get used to it. Don’t be afraid of anyone; upperclassmen (高年级学生) will pick on you more if you let them know you’re afraid. Just take it easy. Making some friends and staying with them will greatly help you get used to high school quickly. After the first week it’s really not bad at all. Don’t worry. 1. What can we infer (推断) from Sharon’s words about high school? A. Teachers are quite strict. B. Students often stay up at night. C. Teachers provide much care for students. D. Students should make good use of their time. 2. How did Eddie feel on his first day of high school? A. Bored. B. Excited. C. Worried. D. Relaxed. 3. Who mentions the importance of friends? A. Frank. B. Eddie. C. Sharon. D. David. B It’s time to go back to high school. Students are excited about the new beginning. But for many kids, the first day is more about friends than classes, and maybe with good reason. On that day, the teacher takes attendance (点名), hands out books, and describes the teaching plan. If a student hears the same things in seven classes, you can’t blame (责备) them for thinking it’s going to be another long year. When the high schoolers’ parents ask what they did in school, it’s pretty likely that the answer will be “Nothing.” It doesn’t have to be this way. Kids always want exciting changes, and you can give them a taste of how appealing your course will be. One English teacher asks students to write 77 words about what they want to get out of her class. Then she reads their responses out aloud. She keeps the responses until the last day of the school year. Finally she hands them back to students so that they can see if they achieved what they wanted. After encouraging kids with a year-long game, she begins the English course. On the first day of science, a teacher gives students 30 minutes to build something to improve people’s lives. A history teacher organizes a debate on whether Swiss cheese is better than cheddar. In math class, another teacher puts students in groups of three, and gives them six minutes to come up with as many answers as possible to the question, “What is math good for?” The new class activities are part of our school-wide movement to improve the first day of classes. Many teachers choose to use creative ways to encourage kids from day one. And all students seem to enjoy the changes. Quite a few parents told me that their kids said, “I think English (or math or biology or Spanish) is going to be great!” 4. Which of the following best describes the class on the first day of school in paragraph 1? A. Too boring. B. A bit strange. C. Really wonderful. D. Quite challenging. 5. What will the students find out in English class at the end of the school year? A. If their writing skills have improved. B. If their expectations have been realized. C. If they can understand the 77 words. D. If the teacher likes their responses. 6. What do the teachers in paragraph 3 have in common? A. All try to organize different debates. B. All ask students to work in groups. C. All hold discussions on teaching plans. D. All choose to do something exciting. 7. What is the author’s attitude to the movement? A. Unclear. B. Doubtful. C. Positive. D. Concerned. C Chinese is one of the world’s most widely spoken languages. As one of the six official languages used by United Nations, Chinese now has gained itself greater status (地位) in the world. Chinese is interesting and special. Unlike most other languages, Chinese has a written form and several spoken forms. The official language of China is the Mandarin (普通话). Mandarin is a statement in China. It is the common language of all modern Han nationality people. Mandarin is shaped and based on the Beijing dialect and other dialects spoken in the northern areas of China. Mandarin is taught in schools throughout the country. The media, officials, and the government use Mandarin as their main language. When you type in Chinese, you use a phonetic system, called pinyin, which matches the Mandarin pronunciation. Mandarin is used as a mother tongue by most people who are about one fifth of the world’s population. Chinese once had very great influence on some neighboring countries with their languages and characters, such as Japanese, Korean, Vietnamese and so on. In addition to China, Mandarin is an official language in several other countries in Asia. Nowadays, with the development of China, Chinese people not only speak Chinese, but also learn other languages, such as English. English is a required course and universal education in China and has great popularity. Many Chinese people can speak basic English, especially the youth, students, and staff of service trades like hotels, restaurants, airlines, banks and post offices. In large cities, there are more people who can communicate with foreigners in English. The language communication now is not a problem at all for those that wish to come to China. Now Chinese is becoming more and more popular. As long as you know Chinese, you’ll also be fine anywhere in China. 8. What can we learn from paragraph 1? A. Chinese has one written and spoken form. B. Chinese plays an important role in the world. C. The official language of China is Beijing dialect. D. Chinese is used as one of the five official languages. 9. What is paragraph 2 mainly about? A. The wrong opinions in Mandarin. B. The advantages of Mandarin. C. The status and influence of Mandarin. D. The results of learning Mandarin. 10. Why does the author mention English? A. To show the changes in English. B. To advise people to travel in England. C. To call on people in China to learn English. D. To introduce the present situation of English in China. 11. What will probably be written in the following paragraph? A. More foreigners will learn Chinese. B. English will be affected by Chinese. C. The difficulties of learning Chinese. D. The long and splendid history of Chinese. D On holiday, many will find themselves in places where they do not speak the language. Once upon a time, they might have carried a phrase book. But now, many simple, free apps are good news for those travellers. With these apps’ conversation mode, people talk into a phone and a spoken translation is heard moments later. Maybe the best-known app is Google Translate, though small mistakes can happen due to its word-for-word translation. Surprisingly, the best tool may not be a translation app at all. Though not marketed for that, ChatGPT, a generative AI system, can write messages in different languages, producing natural output like a native speaker. As AI translation becomes an even more popular labour-saving tool, society may divide into two groups. There will be those who want to fully experience other cultures. This group will still take on language study, often aided by technology. Others will look at learning a new language with a different attitude: “Good for you, if that’s your thing, but a bit painful for my taste.” After all, most people do not move abroad or often have contact with a foreign culture. On their holiday, they just want a beer and spaghetti (意大利面). As a result, some experts are concerned that AI is leading to a decreasing interest in language learning. Writer Douglas Hofstadter has argued that something meaningful will disappear when people communicate through machines. He describes giving a disconnected, difficult speech in Chinese, which required a lot of work but offered a sense of achievement at the end. Who would boast of (吹嘘) taking a helicopter to the top of Mount Qomolangma (珠穆朗玛峰)? While AI translation seems practical, we must recognize the social nature of language. When trying to ask directions in broken Japanese or make a joke in awkward German, you are making direct contact with someone. The best relationships do not require a third party. 12. Which of the following best describes translation apps? A. Free but hard to use. B. Popular but expensive. C. Quick but with mistakes. D. Easy to use but slow. 13. Why does the writer mention “beer and spaghetti (意大利面)” in paragraph 3? A. To present an opinion. B. To support a fact. C. To make an excuse. D. To give a reason. 14. What can be inferred from Douglas Hofstadter’s opinion? A. Reaching Mount Qomolangma is quite easy. B. Learning a foreign language is less attractive. C. Talking without the help of technology is worthwhile. D. Making a speech in another language is too challenging. 15. What is the social nature of language according to the text? A. Direct connection with people. B. Broken but funny translation. C. Awkward relations between people. D. Communication with the third party. 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。有两项为多余选项。 Learning English can be hard, but don’t give up! With enough practice and right ways, you can learn the language well. 16 Watch movies and TV shows in English. 17 This will make it more fun, which will help you actually learn English. However, you should avoid watching movies or television shows with subtitles (字幕) in your native language — they will take your attention away and you will be less likely to learn English from it. Read a book, newspaper or magazine in English. 18 Find something you like whether that’s a famous English novel or a fashion magazine — and read it. Try to understand what you’re reading. Mark words that you don’t know, and look them up in the dictionary. 19 Aside from reading and listening in English, you should also spend some time improving your written English skills. Writing in English will help you to work on your sentence structure (句型), grammar and spelling. Try keeping an English diary where you write down a few sentences every day. It doesn’t have to be personal — you could write about the weather, or what you ate for dinner. Find a pen pal (笔友) who is a native English speaker. Once your written English has improved, you could consider getting an English-speaking pen pal! Your pen pal could be a native English speaker who wants to practice their foreign language skills by writing to you in your native language. Meanwhile you can talk with your pen pal in English. 20 A. Keep a diary in English. B. Here are some tips for you. C. Develop good speaking and writing skills. D. Studying a language is not just for your future. E. Reading is a great way to improve your English. F. In this way you can learn more about each other. G. Try to pick movies or TV shows that you will enjoy. 第二部分 语言运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分） 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的ABCD四个选项中选出最佳选项。 Emma is a lively girl.
