Some may eat their favorite food or listen to some music. Others may go for a walk or get some exercise. A new study found another great way to lower students’ stress—playing with dogs. Scientists studied 105 students between the ages of eight and nine. 35 trained dogs and their trainers also took part in the test. The scientists divided the children into 3 groups. The students in the first group spent 20 minutes with a dog and its trainer. They watched the trained dogs perform and even played with them. They did this twice a week for 4 weeks. The second group spent the same amount (数量) of time doing exercise to relax. The last group didn’t do these things. During this time, the scientists recorded the students’ cortisol levels (皮质醇水平). Cortisol is a stress hormone (激素). The more stressed you feel, the more cortisol you will have in your body. What did the scientists find? Both the second and third groups showed rises (上升) in cortisol levels. The first group, however, showed no big rise. And the children in this group had the lowest cortisol levels right after playing with the dogs. According to the study, students enjoy playing with dogs, and it helps them become happier. The stress hormone falls over time this way, which is good for students’ health. But here comes the next question: Is 20 minutes of playtime with a dog the best amount of time? Scientists are going to keep working to find out the answer. 41. What does the underlined word “lower” in paragraph 1 mean? A. 适应 B. 降低 C. 释放 D. 积累 42. What made the testing results of the three groups different? A. The time. B. The age. C. The activity. D. The place. 43. Which one shows the relationship between students’ stress (x) and cortisol levels (y)? A. B. C. D. 44. What does the underlined word “them” in the last paragraph refer to? A. Trainers. B. Dogs. C. Scientists. D. Students. 45. What may the scientists study next? A. More useful ways to lower stress. B. New skills of keeping pets at home. C. The best amount of time to play with a dog. D. The most helpful kind of dog to play with. 【答案】41. B 42. C 43. A 44. D 45. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，围绕“和狗狗玩耍可降低学生压力”这一新研究展开，介绍了研究的对象、分组实验过程、压力与皮质醇的关系及研究结果，同时提及了科学家后续的研究方向。 【41题详解】 根据文章第一段“A new study found another great way...playing with dogs.”，结合前文“在学校感到压力时要让自己开心”的语境，和狗玩可以降低压力，可推知lower的含义是“降低”。 【42题详解】 根据文章第二段“…The students in the first group...watched the trained dogs perform and even played with them. The second group spent the same amount of time doing exercise to relax. The last group didn’t do these things.”，可知三组学生的年龄、参与时长均一致，不同的是参与的活动，这是测试结果不同的原因。 【43题详解】 根据文章第三段“The more stressed you feel, the more cortisol you will have in your body.”，可知学生的压力（x）越大，体内的皮质醇水平（y）越高，二者呈正相关，与图A的上升直线趋势相符。 【44题详解】 根据文章最后一段“According to the study, students enjoy playing with dogs, and it helps them become happier.”，可知代词them指代前半句的主体students，即和狗狗玩耍能帮助学生变得更开心。 【45题详解】 根据文章最后一段“But here comes the next question: Is 20 minutes of playtime with a dog the best amount of time? Scientists are going to keep working to find out the answer.”，可知科学家接下来会研究和狗狗玩耍的最佳时长。 第二节 （共5小题；每小题1分，满分5分） E 阅读下面短文，从短文后所给的五个选项中选出能填入短文空白处的最佳选项，使短文通顺、连贯，意思完整。 It’s important to do some housework at home.

It only takes a few minutes.”，后文提到“This helps keep the living area tidy all day long.”，选项E“Then, I clean up the living room.”能够承接上文，说明起床整理床铺后接下来打扫客厅，与后文“保持生活区域整洁”形成逻辑呼应。 【48题详解】 第三段后文提到“Walking the dog is a lot of fun.”以及“Doing the laundry is also interesting.”，选项A“I will do some other chores then.”能够引出下文，说明除了前面的简单家务外，还会做其他家务，如遛狗和洗衣服。 【49题详解】 第四段前文提到“If I can make simple food, I will take good care of myself too.”，选项B“My parents will not worry about me when I am alone at home.”能够承接上文，说明学会做饭后，父母不用担独自在家的自己，与“take good care of myself”形成逻辑呼应。 【50题详解】 第五段前文提到“This housework plan is not only about helping my parents and learning new skills.”，后文提到“I hope to spend a happy and meaningful time with my family during this summer.”，选项D“It’s also about my great changes.”能够承接上文“not only about...”的句式，引出“also about...”的并列内容，说明这个计划还关乎自己的巨大变化。 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: ______________________________ today? B: Not bad. 【答案】How is it going/How are you (doing) 【解析】 【详解】根据B的回答“Not bad.”，可知A在询问B今天的状况。在日常英语交际中，“How is it going today?”或“How are you (doing) today?”等都可以用来询问对方今天怎么样。 52. A: _____________________________________? B: I like paper-cuts best. 【答案】What’s your favorite form of art 【解析】 【详解】根据答语“I like paper-cuts best.”可知，此处是问最喜欢的艺术形式是什么。对于询问最喜欢的艺术形式，常用的问句是“你最喜欢的艺术形式是什么？”英文表达为What’s your favorite form of art?。故填What’s your favorite form of art。 53. A: ________________ for breakfast? B: I have milk and bread. 【答案】 What do you have 【解析】 【详解】答句介绍的是早饭吃的食物。因此，问句可以是询问“早餐吃什么”，且答语用了动词have，问句也应使用have提问，常用句型为“What do you have…”。 54. A:_______________________________________________________? B: I have a headache. 【答案】What’s wrong with you/What’s up with you/What’s the matter with you/... 【解析】 【详解】根据答语“I have a headache.”可知，问句是在询问对方身体状况，“What’s wrong with you?”“What’s up with you?”“What’s the matter with you?”等都是用于询问对方状况的常用句型。故填What’s wrong with you/What’s up with you/What’s the matter with you/... 55. A: I am sorry I can’t come to your party. B: ________________! 【答案】 What a pity 【解析】 【详解】本题设置的是对方无法参加派对的交际场景。句子“I am sorry I can’t come to your party.”用来告知不能参加聚会并表达歉意，听到这个消息，说话人可以表达惋惜，因此填What a pity。 Ⅵ. 看图写话（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分） 根据每小题所提供的图画情景和提示词，写出一个与图画情景相符的句子。 56. bad, health ________________ 57. homework, now ________________ 58. watch, tomorrow ________________ 59. symbol ________________ 60. grow up ________________ 【答案】56. Staying up late is bad for health. 57. She is doing her homework now. 58. I will watch Beijing Opera tomorrow. 59. The Great Wall is a symbol of China. 60. I want to be a firefighter when I grow up. 【解析】 【56题详解】 根据图片和“bad, health”可知，句子可以表述为“熬夜对健康不好”。be bad for意为“对……有害”，是固定搭配；动名词作主语，谓语动词使用单数，故可以填Staying up late is bad for health. 【57题详解】 根据图片和“homework, now”可知，句子可以表述为“她现在正在做家庭作业”。由“now”可知，句子时态为现在进行时，谓语结构是“be + 现在分词”；主语she为第三人称单数，所以be动词应用 is；“做作业”用do one’s homework表达，do需要变为现在分词形式，故可以填She is doing her homework now. 【58题详解】 根据图片和“watch, tomorrow”可知，句子可以表述为“我明天将要观看京剧”。由“tomorrow”可知，句子时态为一般将来时，可以使用“will + 动词原形”；“看京剧” 用watch Beijing Opera表达，故可以填I will watch Beijing Opera tomorrow. 【59题详解】 根据图片和“symbol”可知，句子可以表述为“长城是中国的一个象征”。a symbol of意为“……的象征”，是固定搭配；主语the Great Wall是单数名词，be动词应用is，故可以填The Great Wall is a symbol of China. 【60题详解】 根据图片和“grow up”可知，句子可以表述为“我长大后想当一名消防员”。when引导时间状语从句；grow up意为 “长大”；主句用want to be表示“想要成为”，故可以填I want to be a firefighter when I grow up. Ⅶ. 短文填空（共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分） 阅读下面短文，根据语境或所给单词的提示，在每个空格内填入一个恰当的词，要求所填的词意义准确、形式正确，使短文意思完整、行文连贯。 Xu Chaoran is a video (视频) maker and a guqin player.

There is still a long way to go.” 【答案】61. her 62. makes 63. a 64. playing 65. because 66. wonderful 67. places 68. about 69. know 70. well 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了视频制作者和古琴演奏者徐超然通过在自然风景中弹奏古琴以及改编流行歌曲，致力于传播和传承中国传统文化的故事。 【61题详解】 句意：人们在网上也叫她南一女士。设空处在动词“call”的后面作宾语，应使用代词she的宾格形式her。 【62题详解】 句意：她经常穿着中国传统服饰，以宁静的大自然为背景制作视频。“and”连接两个并列谓语，前面的谓语动词“wears”是一般现在时的第三人称单数形式，因此设空处也应保持一致，使用make的第三人称单数形式makes。 【63题详解】 句意：它有大约3000年的历史。“have a history of ...”是固定搭配，意为“有……的历史”。“history”是以辅音音素开头的单词，前面需用不定冠词a。 【64题详解】 句意：徐因以一种不同的方式弹奏古琴而闻名。空前“for”是介词，其后接动词时需用动名词形式，play的动名词形式为playing。 【65题详解】 句意：徐说：“我这样做是因为我认为古琴是一种特殊的乐器。”前后两个分句之间是因果关系，前句是结果，后句是原因，需用连词because引导原因状语从句。 【66题详解】 句意：这种乐器是多么奇妙啊！分析句子结构可知，这是一个由“how”引导的感叹句，结构为“How+形容词/副词+主语+谓语!”。设空处在句中作表语，需用wonder的形容词形式wonderful。 【67题详解】 句意：她制作了自己在中国不同地方弹奏古琴的视频。“different”后面通常接可数名词的复数形式，place的复数形式为places。 【68题详解】 句意：然后更多的人可以欣赏音乐并了解古琴。“learn about”是固定短语，意为“了解，学习关于……的知识”，应用介词about。 【69题详解】 句意：徐说：“我很高兴我的视频让人们了解古琴。”“make sb do sth”是固定搭配，意为“让某人做某事”，make作为使役动词，其后接省略to的动词不定式作宾语补足语，空处用原形know。 【70题详解】 句意：把古琴弹好并传承下去并不容易。设空处修饰前面的动词“play”，需用副词形式。good的副词形式是well。 Ⅷ. 书面表达（满分15分） 71. 孔子学院(Confucius Institute)招聘一批英语志愿者，负责中国和其他国家的文化和艺术交流工作。请根据李华提供的求职信息，帮他写一篇英语的申请书。词数80左右。 Volunteers wanted Why to choose What to do How to do 1.

Let’s take a look at three classic Chinese cartoons below. Little Tadpole Looking for Mummy is China’s first ink wash cartoon. Artists drew all the animals, plants and rocks with ink and brushes. They learned from the great artist Qi Baishi. It’s only about 15 minutes long, but it took lots of work. Pigsy Eats Watermelon is China’s first paper cutting cartoon. This 15-minute cartoon came out in 1958. Artists cut Pigsy out of colored paper. Then they moved its body parts and let it eat the watermelon. Making a paper cutting cartoon was not easy. The artists failed at first. After more work, they finally did it! The Story of Afanti came out in 1979. The film told a story of a wise man Afanti fighting against the bad people and helping the poor. In this film, all the “actors” and “actresses” are puppets (木偶). They are made of wood and cloth, but they look just like real people. They took the artists a lot of time to make. They show the beauty of Chinese puppets. 26. Which is China’s first ink wash cartoon? A. Little Tadpole Looking for Mummy. B. Pigsy Eats Watermelon. C. The Story of Afanti. D. Journey to the West. 27. When did the cartoon Pigsy Eats Watermelon come out? A. In 1958. B. In 1979. C. In 1997. D. In 2025. 28. What are the characters in The Story of Afanti made of? A. Ink and brush. B. Soft clay. C. Wood and cloth. D. Colored paper. 29. The three Chinese cartoons ________. A. are all about family B. took a lot of time and work C. used ink to paint D. are from Qi Baishi’s painting 30. We may find the text in the ________ part of a newspaper. A. science B. weather C. environment D. film B Everyone has a dream, and so do I. When I was a little girl, I always dreamed of being different kinds of people. At first, I wanted to be a teacher because I thought it was cool to teach students new knowledge. I could see the sweet smiles on their faces when they understood something new. It felt like I was lighting up their minds. But later, after watching many exciting medical dramas on TV, I changed my mind. I hoped to become a doctor. I was deeply attracted (吸引) by how doctors worked under pressure using their skills to pull patients back from the edge (边缘) of death. It seemed so amazing to me. Now, as a middle school student, my dream is to be a scientist. I really like science, especially chemistry (化学). I love doing experiments (实验) in the science lab at school. Every time I see a chemical reaction (反应) happen, I feel so excited. I believe that science can change the world. I dream to make some great scientific discoveries in the future. Maybe I can find new ways to make our environment cleaner or develop better medicine to help sick people. I even dream of walking on the moon or even travelling to Mars one day. I know that the road to becoming a scientist is long and full of difficulties. But I’m ready. To make my dream come true, I am working hard at all subjects, especially math and science. I will also read more books about science. I am sure that as long as I keep trying my best, my dream will come true one day. 31. What did the writer want to be at the beginning? A. B. C. D. 32. Why did the writer want to be a doctor? A. Because she thought teaching was boring. B. Because she wanted to make a lot of money. C. Because she was touched by doctors saving lives. D. Because her parents were doctors. 33. Which subject may the writer like best in the school? A. Chemistry. B. Science. C. English. D. Math. 34. What does the writer do to achieve her dream? A. She does experiments often. B. She joins a lot of science clubs. C. She watches science movies. D. She reads more science books. 35. What kind of person is the writer? A. Kind and honest. B. Quiet and shy. C. Active and hardworking. D. Outgoing and patient. C Look around! Labubu, a funny little monster (怪物) toy from China’s Pop Mart company, is becoming popular everywhere. It has big eyes and sharp (尖锐的) teeth. People buy them in “blind boxes” — you don’t know which Labubu toy you get until you open it. This surprise makes it exciting. Why is Labubu so popular? First, it looks special and different. Second, the fun surprise of the blind box makes people want to collect more. Third, young people share photos online, making it even more popular. This is important for China. Labubu isn’t a panda or dragon (as the old symbols of China). It’s a new and creative design. Its worldwide success shows that China can make cool, modern pop culture that everyone enjoys. It helps change how people see things made in China. Besides, Labubu is making the Chinese artists and designers get known by people around the world. As Pop Mart opens stores in other countries, it brings Chinese pop culture to people around the world. In the future, we will probably (可能) see more Chinese characters and stories like Labubu become popular around the world. As China creates fun and cool things, they will continue to spread to new countries. This shows that China’s pop culture can win hearts everywhere in the world. And the world will know and love many more creative ideas from China. 36. What does Labubu look like? A. A cute panda with small eyes. B. A funny monster with big eyes and sharp teeth. C. A traditional Chinese dragon. D. A round toy with no special features. 37. How do people buy Labubu toys? A. By choosing designs you like in open boxes. B. Through online games. C. In “blind boxes” with surprise designs. D. Only in Chinese stores. 38. Why does the writer talk about “panda or dragon”? A. To describe Labubu’s size. B. To show Labubu is a traditional Chinese symbol. C. To explain why Labubu is less popular. D. To compare old symbols with new Chinese creativity. 39. What is the structure of the article? A. B. C. D. 40. What is the best title of the passage? A. Pop Mart’s Money-Making Blind Boxes B. Labubu: A Toy Spreading Chinese pop culture C. Why Young People Collect Labubu D. History of Chinese Traditional Symbols D If you feel stressed at school, what can you do to make yourself happy? Some may eat their favorite food or listen to some music. Others may go for a walk or get some exercise. A new study found another great way to lower students’ stress—playing with dogs. Scientists studied 105 students between the ages of eight and nine. 35 trained dogs and their trainers also took part in the test. The scientists divided the children into 3 groups. The students in the first group spent 20 minutes with a dog and its trainer. They watched the trained dogs perform and even played with them. They did this twice a week for 4 weeks. The second group spent the same amount (数量) of time doing exercise to relax. The last group didn’t do these things. During this time, the scientists recorded the students’ cortisol levels (皮质醇水平). Cortisol is a stress hormone (激素). The more stressed you feel, the more cortisol you will have in your body. What did the scientists find? Both the second and third groups showed rises (上升) in cortisol levels. The first group, however, showed no big rise. And the children in this group had the lowest cortisol levels right after playing with the dogs. According to the study, students enjoy playing with dogs, and it helps them become happier. The stress hormone falls over time this way, which is good for students’ health. But here comes the next question: Is 20 minutes of playtime with a dog the best amount of time? Scientists are going to keep working to find out the answer. 41. What does the underlined word “lower” in paragraph 1 mean? A. 适应 B. 降低 C. 释放 D. 积累 42. What made the testing results of the three groups different? A. The time. B. The age. C. The activity. D. The place. 43. Which one shows the relationship between students’ stress (x) and cortisol levels (y)? A. B. C. D. 44. What does the underlined word “them” in the last paragraph refer to? A. Trainers. B. Dogs. C. Scientists. D. Students. 45. What may the scientists study next? A. More useful ways to lower stress. B. New skills of keeping pets at home. C. The best amount of time to play with a dog. D. The most helpful kind of dog to play with. 第二节 （共5小题；每小题1分，满分5分） E 阅读下面短文，从短文后所给的五个选项中选出能填入短文空白处的最佳选项，使短文通顺、连贯，意思完整。 It’s important to do some housework at home.
