Let’s learn it for burns (烧伤) together. FIRST AID FOR BURNS Degree of burns: Prevention (预防): ▲Don’t touch hot water directly. ▲Stay away from fire. ▲Be careful when using electricity. ▲Deal with chemicals (化学制品) under the instructions. Treatment: If you have a first-degree burn, follow these steps: ①Cool the burnt area under cool running water. ②Remove jewellery (去除首饰) and any clothing unless stuck to the burn. ③Use a burn ointment or aloe vera (芦荟膏). Don’t use ice, eggs or oil. ④Cover the burnt area with a clean cloth. If the burn is serious, call 120 or go to the hospital at once. 16. If we have a first-degree burn, what should we do first? A.

A 【解析】 【导语】本文是说明文，围绕烧伤急救主题展开，介绍了烧伤的分度、烧伤的预防措施以及一度烧伤的具体处理步骤，普及相关急救知识。 【16题详解】 根据文章Treatment部分“If you have a first-degree burn, follow these steps: Cool the burnt area under cool running water.”可知，一度烧伤的首要处理步骤是用凉流动水冲洗烧伤部位，对应选项D的图示内容。 【17题详解】 根据文章Treatment部分“Use a burn ointment or aloe vera (芦荟膏). Don’t use ice, eggs or oil.”可知，芦荟膏可用于烧伤治疗。 【18题详解】 根据文章Prevention部分“Don’t touch hot water directly.” “Stay away from fire.” “Be careful when using electricity.” “Deal with chemicals under the instructions.”可知，远离火源、不直接触碰热水、使用化学制品时遵循说明都是正确的烧伤预防方法，“不要独自用电”与原文“用电时需小心”的表述不符，因此①③④表述正确。 【19题详解】 根据文章Treatment部分“Use a burn ointment or aloe vera (芦荟膏).”可知，ointment是和芦荟膏作用相似、用于烧伤处理的物品，属于药物类。 【20题详解】 本文是烧伤急救的健康科普内容，属于健康护理范畴，因此该材料可能出自报纸的健康护理板块。 B When you first hear about the Dead Sea, it might sound scary, but the truth is quite different. Let’s get closer to the Dead Sea and learn more about it. The Dead Sea is located in southwest Asia. It is about 50 kilometers long and 15 kilometers wide at its widest point. It sits at about 430 meters below sea level (海平面), making it the lowest point on Earth’s land. What’s interesting is that the Dead Sea isn’t actually a sea. It’s a lake with a salt concentration (含盐度) of more than 30 percent, which is about eight times saltier than typical seawater. This makes it one of the saltiest bodies of water on Earth. The Dead Sea stays so salty because of its special natural conditions. Each year, it receives very little rainfall, and only a small amount of fresh water flows into it. And the hot weather around the Dead Sea causes the fresh water to evaporate (蒸发) quickly, which makes the salt concentration even higher. For these reasons, it is also known as the Salt Sea. If you were to swim in the Dead Sea, you wouldn’t see any sea life—no plants or animals. The high salt concentration makes it impossible for them to live there. That’s actually why it’s called the Dead Sea. However, don’t let the name or not having any sea life scare you. Even if you fall into the Dead Sea and can’t swim, you won’t die. The high concentration of salt in the Dead Sea allows anyone to float well, without the need for life buoys (救生圈). In fact, many people visit the Dead Sea every year on vacation. If you walk along the lakeside, you’ll likely see many people floating in the water, reading books or magazines. 21. What do we know about the Dead Sea? A. It is the largest place in Asia. B. It is the widest sea in the world. C. It is the deepest point in America. D. It is the lowest lake on Earth’s land. 22. What makes the Dead Sea so salty? A. A lot of seawater runs into it. B. Human activities improve the salt levels. C. Little rain falls and fresh water evaporates quickly. D. The high temperature stops the water from freezing. 23. Why do people call it the Dead Sea? A. Because they cannot swim in it. B. Because it has something dangerous. C. Because it has low salt concentration. D. Because no plants or animals can live in it. 24. What does the underlined word “float” probably mean? A. 下沉 B. 漂浮 C. 潜水 D. 游泳 25. What can we infer (推断) from the last paragraph? A. People feel scared when swimming in the Dead Sea. B. The Dead Sea is dangerous for people who can’t swim. C. If people can’t swim, they’ll still be safe in the Dead Sea. D. A life buoy is necessary when swimming in the Dead Sea. 【答案】21. D 22. C 23. D 24. B 25. C 【解析】 【导语】本文介绍了死海（Dead Sea）的地理特征和独特之处。 【21题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“It sits at about 430 meters below sea level… making it the lowest point on Earth’s land”以及“It’s a lake with a salt concentration…”可知，死海是地球陆地最低点，且第三段明确提到它是“a lake”，故选D。 【22题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“it receives very little rainfall… fresh water evaporates quickly”可知，降水少、淡水蒸发快导致盐分浓缩，故选C。 【23题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段“The high salt concentration makes it impossible for them to live there. That’s actually why it’s called the Dead Sea”可知，高盐浓度使得动植物无法在那里生存。这就是为什么它被称为死海的原因。故选D。 【24题详解】 词句猜测题。根据最后一段“without the need for life buoys”和“people floating in the water, reading books”可知，高盐度使人无需救生圈即可“漂浮”，故选B。 【25题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Even if you fall into the Dead Sea and can’t swim, you won’t die… allows anyone to float well”可推断，即使不会游泳，因浮力大仍安全，故选C。 C ①What do you think of when we say Chinese culture? Do you know that the Spring Festival is also a symbol of Chinese culture? ②On December 4th, 2024, UNESCO (联合国教科文组织) accepted Chinese Spring Festival as one of the World’s Intangible Cultural Heritages (非物质文化遗产). “It shows that Chinese Spring Festival is meaningful to the world,” said one of the Chinese officials. “And it will help more foreigners to learn about Chinese culture.” ③As the oldest and the most important festival in China, the Spring Festival is always a time for families to get together. There are many traditions about it in China, such as writing the character Fu, hanging couplets (对联), making dumplings and watching dragon dance and lion dance performances. People, especially young children, also like to set off fireworks (烟花). ④Another important tradition about the festival is that people always visit their relatives and friends to say “Happy New Year”. And they usually bring small gifts and give “Hongbao”(lucky money) to young kids. These years, saying “Happy New Year” to each other on the phone or online is getting more and more popular. ⑤Almost half of 2025 has passed, and it is the Year of the Snake. We are sure that more and more foreigners will celebrate the Spring Festival and have fun together with Chinese people. 26. The writer starts the writing by ________. A. asking questions B. telling a story C. reporting news D. giving examples 27.

In which part of a newspaper can we read this passage? A. Food. B. Education. C. Travel. D. Culture. 【答案】26. A 27. D 28. B 29. C 30. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是说明文，围绕中国春节展开，介绍了春节被联合国教科文组织列入世界非物质文化遗产的事件及意义，列举了春节的各类传统习俗，并展望了春节在全球的发展前景。 【26题详解】 根据文章第1段“What do you think of when we say Chinese culture? Do you know that the Spring Festival is also a symbol of Chinese culture?”可知，作者通过提出两个问题的方式开篇，引出本文核心话题春节。 【27题详解】 根据文章第3段“hanging couplets”、“set off fireworks”以及第4段“give ‘Hongbao’(lucky money) to young kids”可知，挂对联、给孩子压岁钱、放烟花均属于春节的传统习俗，对应a、c、e。 【28题详解】 根据文章第5段“it is the Year of the Snake”可知，2025年是蛇年，因此2025年的挂历上会印有蛇的图案。 【29题详解】 根据文章第1段“Do you know that the Spring Festival is also a symbol of Chinese culture?”、第2段“UNESCO accepted Chinese Spring Festival as one of the World’s Intangible Cultural Heritages”、第3段“There are many traditions about it in China”、第4段“Another important tradition about the festival is that people always visit their relatives and friends to say ‘Happy New Year’”、第5段“We are sure that more and more foreigners will celebrate the Spring Festival”可知，文章第1段引出话题，第2段介绍申遗背景，第3、4段并列介绍春节传统，第5段总结展望，整体为“引入-背景-并列分述-总结”的结构。 【30题详解】 根据文章第1段“Do you know that the Spring Festival is also a symbol of Chinese culture?”及全文围绕春节文化展开的内容，可推知本文属于文化类内容，能够在报纸的文化板块读到。 第二节(共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分) 阅读短文，从所给的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，使短文通顺连贯。选项中有一项为多余选项。 Do you want to spend your time helping people in need? ____31____ Choose one that interests you, and make your life colorful and meaningful!

Let’s get closer to the Dead Sea and learn more about it. The Dead Sea is located in southwest Asia. It is about 50 kilometers long and 15 kilometers wide at its widest point. It sits at about 430 meters below sea level (海平面), making it the lowest point on Earth’s land. What’s interesting is that the Dead Sea isn’t actually a sea. It’s a lake with a salt concentration (含盐度) of more than 30 percent, which is about eight times saltier than typical seawater. This makes it one of the saltiest bodies of water on Earth. The Dead Sea stays so salty because of its special natural conditions. Each year, it receives very little rainfall, and only a small amount of fresh water flows into it. And the hot weather around the Dead Sea causes the fresh water to evaporate (蒸发) quickly, which makes the salt concentration even higher. For these reasons, it is also known as the Salt Sea. If you were to swim in the Dead Sea, you wouldn’t see any sea life—no plants or animals. The high salt concentration makes it impossible for them to live there. That’s actually why it’s called the Dead Sea. However, don’t let the name or not having any sea life scare you. Even if you fall into the Dead Sea and can’t swim, you won’t die. The high concentration of salt in the Dead Sea allows anyone to float well, without the need for life buoys (救生圈). In fact, many people visit the Dead Sea every year on vacation. If you walk along the lakeside, you’ll likely see many people floating in the water, reading books or magazines. 21. What do we know about the Dead Sea? A. It is the largest place in Asia. B. It is the widest sea in the world. C. It is the deepest point in America. D. It is the lowest lake on Earth’s land. 22. What makes the Dead Sea so salty? A. A lot of seawater runs into it. B. Human activities improve the salt levels. C. Little rain falls and fresh water evaporates quickly. D. The high temperature stops the water from freezing. 23. Why do people call it the Dead Sea? A. Because they cannot swim in it. B. Because it has something dangerous. C. Because it has low salt concentration. D. Because no plants or animals can live in it. 24. What does the underlined word “float” probably mean? A. 下沉 B. 漂浮 C. 潜水 D. 游泳 25. What can we infer (推断) from the last paragraph? A. People feel scared when swimming in the Dead Sea. B. The Dead Sea is dangerous for people who can’t swim. C. If people can’t swim, they’ll still be safe in the Dead Sea. D. A life buoy is necessary when swimming in the Dead Sea. C ①What do you think of when we say Chinese culture? Do you know that the Spring Festival is also a symbol of Chinese culture? ②On December 4th, 2024, UNESCO (联合国教科文组织) accepted Chinese Spring Festival as one of the World’s Intangible Cultural Heritages (非物质文化遗产). “It shows that Chinese Spring Festival is meaningful to the world,” said one of the Chinese officials. “And it will help more foreigners to learn about Chinese culture.” ③As the oldest and the most important festival in China, the Spring Festival is always a time for families to get together. There are many traditions about it in China, such as writing the character Fu, hanging couplets (对联), making dumplings and watching dragon dance and lion dance performances. People, especially young children, also like to set off fireworks (烟花). ④Another important tradition about the festival is that people always visit their relatives and friends to say “Happy New Year”. And they usually bring small gifts and give “Hongbao”(lucky money) to young kids. These years, saying “Happy New Year” to each other on the phone or online is getting more and more popular. ⑤Almost half of 2025 has passed, and it is the Year of the Snake. We are sure that more and more foreigners will celebrate the Spring Festival and have fun together with Chinese people. 26. The writer starts the writing by ________.
