B “Why is the sky blue?” “Why do we add sugar to food?” “Why…?” Everyone knew 10-year-old Ananya as “the question girl”. “Ananya, stop asking so many questions!” her teacher Mrs. Sharma would say. “Just accept things as they are,” her grandmother told her. “She talks too much,” her classmates avoided her. Ananya felt lonely. Maybe everyone was right. Maybe asking questions was bad. But Ananya couldn’t help it. She wanted to understand everything. One day, Mr. Patel, a new science teacher, joined their school. In his first class, Ananya raised her hand, “Why do birds fly south?” The class complained (抱怨), “Not again!” But Mr. Patel smiled, “That’s an excellent question! Who else wants to know why?” Ananya blinked (眨眼) in surprise. No teacher had ever said that before! After class, Mr. Patel called Ananya aside. “Don’t ever stop asking questions,” he said. “Do you know what scientists do all day? They ask ‘why’. Every scientist was once a curious child.” For the first time, Ananya didn’t feel annoyed (烦恼的). She felt special. Mr. Patel taught Ananya to find answers herself. “When you have a question, first try to find the answer. Read books. Watch carefully. Then, if you still don’t understand, ask.” Ananya started visiting the library. She read books about science and nature. She started a “Question Notebook”. Her questions became better. Instead of “Why is the sky blue?” she asked “Why does the sky’s color change during sunrise?” Teachers noticed. Ananya’s questions now sparked interesting discussions. When Ananya was twelve, she had a question: “Why do some street dogs sleep on the road at night?” She studied that for three months. Then she created a project showing temperature differences. It won first prize at school, then district, then national level! Today, Ananya is 24 and studies environmental science. She still asks “why” all the time. She visits schools, talking to children. “Never let anyone make you feel bad for being curious,” she tells them. 根据材料内容选择最佳答案。 5. Why did Ananya’s classmates avoid her? A. Because she didn’t like to talk with others. B. Because she kept asking so many questions. C. Because she always got into trouble with others. D. Because she couldn’t answer teachers’ questions. 6. What does the underlined word “curious” mean in the text? A. Dealing with danger with courage. B. Showing a sense of humor. C. Wanting to know about something. D. Enjoying meeting new people. 7. What did Mr. Patel do to help Ananya? A. He taught her some social skills. B. He created a project with her. C. He bought a lot of books for her. D. He encouraged her to ask wisely. 8. Which of the following can be put in __#__? A. How I became a good student B. Why I had to take notes C. Where I found the real answer D. Who I made friends with 9. What can be learned from the story? A. Every question is a door opening. B. Many hands make light work. C. Actions speak louder than words. D. Be thankful for what you have. C Did you notice how nature sometimes repeats itself? Something that repeats is called a pattern. There are many patterns for you to study and learn. Look around you. Patterns are everywhere. You may see bright and colorful patterns if you look at fish in the sea. In a bee’s honeycomb, the six-sided shape is repeated many times. Some leaves always have five points on them. Listening carefully, you will find a noisy world. Dogs bark, the rain falls and the wind blows. Are these patterns? Of course! Sounds that repeat are patterns. A cricket (蟋蟀) uses its wings to make repeated chirping (啁啾叫) sounds. Do you know that a cricket’s chirp changes with the temperature? The hotter it is, the more chirps a cricket will make. Try to find out how living things grow around you. Seeds (种子) grow into plants. A butterfly begins life as an egg. Each living thing has its own pattern as it grows. When a human baby is born, it is small. With time, the baby learns to lift its head and learns to roll over. Finally, the baby learns to stand up and walk. This kind of pattern is called a pattern of development. If something happens over and over, it, too, forms a pattern. For example, you get up at 7:00 every morning. You get dressed and then eat breakfast at 7:30 a.m. If you repeat this many times, it becomes a pattern. Having a music class every Monday is a pattern. So is going to school five days a week and having Saturday and Sunday off. It seems as if the world is full of patterns. Just think—without patterns, the world would be much harder to study! 10. What makes the pattern in a bee’s honeycomb? A. The shape. B. The color. C. The taste. D. The weight. 11. What is Paragraph 3 mainly about? A. Patterns you can see. B. Patterns you can hear. C. Patterns you can smell. D. Patterns you can touch. 12. Which picture shows “a pattern of development”? A. B. C. D. 13. What is the writer’s purpose in writing the text? A. To share knowledge of patterns. B. To discuss when patterns were found. C. To explain why patterns are beautiful. D. To show the difficulty of studying patterns. D Minqin, lying in the city of Wuwei in Gansu, is sandwiched between China’s third and fourth-largest deserts. It is one of the country’s main sources (来源) of sandstorms. In 2007, then 26-year-old Ma Junhe started Minqin’s first environmental protection volunteer program named Save Minqin after reading in a newspaper that his hometown was at risk of being covered by sand within 17 years. The program started with just 60 volunteers. Last year, more than 6,000 volunteers planted suosuo trees there, most of whom were aged between 18 and 30, also called GenZers. Zhang Liwen, an 18-year-old girl from Xi’an, spent five days planting suosuo trees in Minqin. “This idea came from my wish to complete a meaningful coming-of-age ceremony, but now I find value in contributing (贡献) to society,” Zhang said. The vlogs shared by Zhang are lively and attractive. She filmed a group of young volunteers, including herself, planting trees with stylish sports sunglasses, enjoying local noodles in their tent, and dancing in the desert after work. Li Xiuniang, from Heilongjiang province, also posted her volunteer work online. “This task isn’t just for Minqin; it’s for all of China,” she said. Lee Ting-Hsuan, a 20-year-old student from Taiwan, is one of thousands of volunteers who travel to Minqin every year. Around 20 young volunteers from Macao also joined the program. “Through tree planting, we get a deeper understanding of Northwest China and its culture,” one of them said. Since 2007, over 80,000 volunteers have joined this program and they have planted over 1.52 million trees, making a green promise in the yellow sands. Ma Junhe said, “GenZers are more confident in achieving their dreams. They really enjoy meaningful public activities, and help a lot by sharing their stories online, attracting more people to take action.” 14. What directly pushed Ma Junhe to set up the Save Minqin program? A. The fear of meeting sandstorms. B. The love of green mountains. C. The wish to attract more GenZers. D. The worry of losing his hometown. 15. Why does the writer list the number of volunteers in the first paragraph? A. To prove that Minqin needs more and more volunteers. B. To show the rapid development of the volunteer program. C. To call on more volunteers to plant suosuo trees in Minqin. D. To compare the number of young volunteers with the older ones. 16. Zhang Liwen’s vlogs can attract more volunteers because the vlogs show ______. A. their contribution to our society B. the hardship of planting trees C. the colorful life of volunteering D. the comfortable life in Minqin 17. What might be the writer’s purpose of writing the passage? A. To show young people from Taiwan and Macao are active. B. To introduce the dangerous condition that Minqin is facing. C. To introduce different ways of encouraging people to plant trees. D. To show the strong volunteering willingness of Chinese GenZers. 第二节 阅读短文，从所给的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，其中有一个多余的选项。 We all answer questions every day. But how do you know if your answer is actually reasonable (合理的)? Here are four simple ways to check. Think about the logic (逻辑) A reasonable answer must follow basic logic. If your answer disagrees with common knowledge, something is probably wrong. For example, if a math problem asks how many apples are in a basket, and you get “-5”, that isn’t reasonable. ____18____ Always ask yourself, “Does this fit the real world?” Use real-life examples Let’s say you are solving a science question, “Why do we feel cold in winter?” A reasonable answer is, “Because the temperature drops.” Now compare that with an unreasonable answer, “Because the sun gets angry.” The first answer uses facts. The second sounds funny but has no science behind it. When you give an answer, try to connect it to something you have actually seen or experienced. ____19____ Before you finish, ask yourself, “Is my answer close to what I expected?” Let’s do a quick math check. If you calculate 38×4, and you get 152, that feels right. But if you get 1,520, that is too big. Compare your answer with an estimate (估算). If they are very different, go back and check your work. Ask yourself questions This is the easiest method. Just ask yourself, “Is the answer reasonable?” “Can I explain the answer to a friend?” “Would my teacher accept the answer?” If you can’t explain your answer in simple words, you might not fully understand it yourself. ____20____ In short, a reasonable answer is logical, factual (事实的), close to your estimate, and easy to explain. ____21____ You will make fewer mistakes and feel more confident. A. Next time you finish a question, spend a few seconds checking. B. A good answer should be easy to talk about. C. Compare it with what you expected. D. Connect it with what you already know. E. You cannot have negative apples. 二、完形填空（共10小题，每小题1分；满分10分） 请认真阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 Once a week, I was allowed to sleep over at my friend Nicole’s home, a chance to stay away from my mother.

I nearly cried. Just a text message? I sent her a short “congratulations” message with lots of emojis (表情符号). I tried to feel happy, but I didn’t. For me, words and symbols on a screen are not enough. If it’s important, we should talk. Am I an old-fashioned girl? On the phone, you can hear whether a person is happy or sad, excited or disappointed. You can hear emotions. But maybe that’s exactly the problem. Maybe we are scared of people’s emotional reactions when we call them. Or perhaps we don’t want them to hear our true feelings. We seem to be cheerful in the social media world. Or we are excited, or shocked. Or some other strong feelings that make us use lots (yes, lots!!!) of exclamation marks. That’s not real life. Some days are boring. Sometimes we might be in low spirits but a chat with a good friend on the phone would cheer us up. Try it! You don’t have to talk about how terrible you’ve been feeling. Just talk. If your friend takes time for you, you’ll feel so much better after talking to him or her. And friendship is about sharing true emotions, the negative ones and the positive ones. Just relax yourself. You misunderstand your friend. A text message can’t be more convenient. You can send it anytime and anywhere. It matters which way to choose. If the thing is important, a simple text message can’t show care between close friends. A warm call does, instead. Perhaps the way out is not to choose one side, but to find a middle ground. Calls, messages and emojis — they’re there. Call me when you are free; text me when busy. Day and night, my phone shows me messages from my boss, workmates and friends. Why don’t people call me? Anyway, I am totally on your side. 42. How did the writer feel when receiving the text message? _____________________________________________________ 43. Why do some people avoid calling according to the writer? _____________________________________________________ 44. What does the writer suggest doing in Paragraph 3? _____________________________________________________ 45. Do you prefer to call or text your friend? Why? (Give one reason in your own words. Write more than 30 words) _____________________________________________________ 五、书面表达（满分20分） 46. 假如你是李华，你校“英语文化节”招募主持人，你想报名参加，请用英文给活动负责人Mr. Brown写一封申请信，内容包括： 要点提示：（1）介绍自身优势； （2）询问选拔流程(selection process)； （3）期待得到机会。 注意：（1）词数80-100左右，开头和结尾已给出，不计入总词数； （2）可适当增加细节，以使行文连贯； （3）文中不能出现真实姓名及学校名称。 Dear Mr. Brown, ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Yours, Li Hua 英语试卷 （本试卷共45道题 满分为90分 考试时长90分钟） 考生注意：请在答题卡各题目规定答题区域内作答，答在本试卷上无效 第一部分 选择题 一、阅读理解（共20小题，每小题2分；满分40分） 第一节 阅读下面语言材料，从每题所给A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 A 【1~4题答案】 【答案】1.
