A. pressure B. experience C. independence D. fairness 【答案】A 【解析】 【详解】句意：——因为太多的作业我感到压力很大。——你应该学会放松，不要给自己施加太大的压力。 pressure压力；experience经验；independence独立；fairness公平。根据“I feel stressed out because of too much homework.”可知，说话人因作业太多感到有压力，所以建议不要给自己施加太多“压力”，应填pressure。 3.

If you go, you can climb mountains and enjoy beautiful sights. A. regard B. consider C. include D. count 【答案】B 【解析】 【详解】句意：——我不知道这个暑假该去哪里。——为什么不考虑去黄山游玩呢？如果你去的话，你可以爬山并欣赏美丽的风景。 考查动词辨析。regard认为；consider考虑；include包括；count数数。根据“Why not...visiting Huangshan?”可知，“consider doing sth.”是固定用法，表示“考虑做某事”，此处建议对方考虑去黄山游玩。故选B。 9. —Do you think Jane is one of ________ students in our class? —Yes, and she is ________ creative than any other student.

But inside, they made the houses comfortable. They added modern things like soft beds and clean bathrooms. A guide led me to a big square. People were getting together there. Some were eating delicious steamed chicken, and others were talking and laughing in the sun. “This is our sweet home,” the guide said. “We love it here because it has our history and our happy life.” From this trip, I learned that a sweet home is not just a place to live. It’s a place full of love, history, and good memories. Hongcun shows us how we can keep our old homes beautiful and make them comfortable at the same time. 39.

Many students feel nervous when introducing themselves to the class because they don’t know what and how to share. Here are some ways that will help you introduce yourself with confidence. ②Stand up before introducing yourself. This will make you more confident and will help you speak more clearly than sitting. You may feel embarrassed to stand up, but your introduction will be over more quickly than you think. ③Stay confident when you speak. When you do this, you should speak in a clear, loud voice so that everyone is able to hear you. It’s okay to be nervous—lots of people are nervous when speaking in front of others. But if you can take a deep breath and show confidence, you’ll finish your introduction better. ④Smile when you speak. Even if you are really nervous, smiling will make your voice sound calmer and will help you feel less nervous. It also shows your classmates and your teachers that you are friendly. ⑤Offer your hobbies or interests. If you are interested in sports or have pets or like to travel, the end of your introduction is a good place to give this information. ⑥You can try these suggestions and you’ll find they may be helpful. 42. Standing up before introduction has many benefits except for ________.

C 【解析】 【导语】本文主要阐述了自我介绍的重要性，并提供了站立、保持自信、微笑及分享爱好四条具体建议，旨在帮助学生自信地完成自我介绍。 【42题详解】 根据文章第②段“Stand up before introducing yourself. This will make you more confident and will help you speak more clearly than sitting…but your introduction will be over more quickly than you think.”可知站立带来的好处是自信、清晰和快速，文中提到embarrassed是可能产生的感受而非好处。 【43题详解】 根据文章第④段中“Smile when you speak…smiling will make your voice sound calmer and will help you feel less nervous.”可知微笑能帮助缓解紧张情绪。 【44题详解】 根据文章第⑤段“Offer your hobbies or interests…the end of your introduction is a good place to give this information.”提到可以在自我介绍的末尾部分介绍自己的爱好或兴趣，而非在开头谈论。 【45题详解】 文章第①段总起，点明主题即介绍自信做自我介绍的方法；第②至第⑤段分别逐条列举具体的自我介绍的建议；第⑥段总结，建议大家尝试这些方法，整体结构为总—分—总，对应文章结构划分为①/②③④⑤/⑥。 D If you travel by plane in Thailand, you might see some artistic pictures showing lovely cartoon cats from the air. The photo above is one of them. It was taken in December of 2023. In the photo, you can see a cute sleeping cat with a fish. You must wonder how the pictures came into being. Well, rice farmer Tanyapong Jaikham created them with the help of a team of workers. It was not easy. Tanyapong said, “To make the art, we used a great number of different kinds of seedlings (秧苗) with leaves of different colors. Then we planted them in the right places using GPS coordinates (坐标). Over time, the seedlings grew and the pictures appeared.” Tanyapong hopes that the art can help attract (吸引) more tourists and cat lovers to visit the place. “We are expecting tens of thousands to come and see the art in the rice fields,” said Tanyapong. The artistic pictures not only celebrate the beauty of nature, but also show a Thai saying, “There are fish in the water and rice in the fields.” 46.

I had a great time there, but I also made some funny mistakes because of cultural differences. One day, my uncle took me to a restaurant. When the waiter came, I said, “I want a hamburger and a cola.” But my uncle told me that in England, it’s more polite to say “Could I have a hamburger and a cola, please?” I felt embarrassed but learned a lesson. Another time, I met my uncle’s friend, Mr. Brown. I reached out my hand to shake hands with him, but he gave me a kiss on the cheek. I was surprised because in China, we only shake hands when we meet someone for the first time. Then, at a party, I saw people opening their gifts immediately when they received them. In China, we usually open gifts later when we get home. I asked my uncle why, and he said that in England, it’s polite to open gifts in front of the giver to show you like them. These mistakes taught me that learning about different cultures is very important. It helps us get on well with people from other countries. 49. The writer went to ________ last summer. A. America B.

There were clear rivers running through the town, old houses with nice artworks on the walls, and a blue sky above. It truly took my breath away. In Hongcun, there were thousands of old houses. People there loved their homes. They wanted to keep the old look of the houses. So, they carefully protected the outside of the houses, with silk curtains at the windows and ancient towers. But inside, they made the houses comfortable. They added modern things like soft beds and clean bathrooms. A guide led me to a big square. People were getting together there. Some were eating delicious steamed chicken, and others were talking and laughing in the sun. “This is our sweet home,” the guide said. “We love it here because it has our history and our happy life.” From this trip, I learned that a sweet home is not just a place to live.

Many students feel nervous when introducing themselves to the class because they don’t know what and how to share. Here are some ways that will help you introduce yourself with confidence. ②Stand up before introducing yourself. This will make you more confident and will help you speak more clearly than sitting. You may feel embarrassed to stand up, but your introduction will be over more quickly than you think. ③Stay confident when you speak. When you do this, you should speak in a clear, loud voice so that everyone is able to hear you. It’s okay to be nervous—lots of people are nervous when speaking in front of others. But if you can take a deep breath and show confidence, you’ll finish your introduction better. ④Smile when you speak. Even if you are really nervous, smiling will make your voice sound calmer and will help you feel less nervous. It also shows your classmates and your teachers that you are friendly. ⑤Offer your hobbies or interests. If you are interested in sports or have pets or like to travel, the end of your introduction is a good place to give this information. ⑥You can try these suggestions and you’ll find they may be helpful. 42.

The artistic pictures not only celebrate the beauty of nature, but also show a Thai saying, “There are fish in the water and rice in the fields.” 46.

Another time, I met my uncle’s friend, Mr. Brown. I reached out my hand to shake hands with him, but he gave me a kiss on the cheek. I was surprised because in China, we only shake hands when we meet someone for the first time. Then, at a party, I saw people opening their gifts immediately when they received them. In China, we usually open gifts later when we get home. I asked my uncle why, and he said that in England, it’s polite to open gifts in front of the giver to show you like them.
