19.(1.5分)What does the speaker say is cool about card game competitions?

20.(1.5分)What is the main idea of the talk?
A.Life choices are hard to make.
B.Games should be about having fun.
C.Pressure affects thinking in games.
【答案】18.B 19.B 20.C
【原文】 M: When I was young, I used to play card games. Unlike many people, I didn’t play for fun, but competed in competitions. Hundreds of players go to a large building, usually a hotel, and play against each other with strict rules. I did this until I was a teenager. The competition was strong. The interesting thing about playing card games in competitions is how the watching crowd affects your ability to make decisions. Card games are all about thinking about moves. This is something we all have to do every day. The cool thing about card games is that they keep your thoughts away from everything else. It is pure thinking. But, in competitions, people make simple mistakes that would seem crazy when playing for fun. In real life, we don’t get to see our decisions and their results so clearly as with card games. However, people watching and judging your moves affects your thinking more than you can imagine. For me, that is the real lesson of card games. It is a lesson I still remember as an adult.

(本题10分)Near the small town of Grottoes, Virginia, a narrow dirt road goes from the house of Stephen Curry’s grandfather to the woods nearby. It was along this road that Stephen’s grandfather built a simple basket by attaching a piece of plastic to a telephone pole.
Like his father, basketball star Dell Curry, Stephen spent many childhood hours playing on this muddy basketball court. With every shot, the weak plastic backboard gave way. The bumps and rocks that lined the road under the basket caused the ball to bounce in all directions. Knowing where the ball would go wasn’t easy. Only shots perfectly aimed at its centre went into the heavy, thick basket. In this way, practising day in and day out helped Stephen sharpen his skills.
Despite his father’s successful career, Stephen was thought by many people, including his high school teammates and coaches, to be too short, too thin and too weak to follow in his father’s footsteps. But Stephen carried on. Playing basketball was his dream. He would not give up. He finally ended up playing college ball at a small, little-known school.
Selected for the NBA in 2009, Stephen joined the Golden State Warriors. He performed beyond everyone’s expectations with his perfect shooting and continuous efforts. He’s led the Warriors to four championships since 2015 and received many MVP awards.
Stephen explained his philosophy, “I never really set out to change the game… What I wanted to do was just be myself… You’ve got to be able to put in the time and the work. That’s how I got here.” Curry’s journey from an underdog to an NBA superstar inspires athletes worldwide. His focus on perfecting his skills influences fans of all ages. Curry’s story encourages young players to believe in their abilities and work tirelessly to achieve their dreams.
24.(2.5分)What can we know about Stephen Curry’s childhood basketball practice?
A.The court was well-equipped for training.
B.His grandfather taught him how to play.
C.His father coached him personally there.
D.He improved by facing tough conditions.
25.(2.5分)Why did many people doubt Stephen Curry?
A.He was considered physically unsuitable.
B.He lacked family support.
C.He went to an unknown school.
D.He was too young and inexperienced.
26.(2.5分)What does the underlined word “philosophy” in paragraph 5 mean?

C.Championship plan. D.Basketball skill.
27.(2.5分)What can we learn from Curry’s story?

B.Natural talent finds its way.
C.Education is the key to success.
D.Family support makes champions.
【答案】24.D 25.A 26.B 27.A
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了NBA巨星斯蒂芬·库里从童年在简陋条件下练球,克服他人质疑,凭借不懈努力,最终成为超级巨星的故事,传递了坚持与努力的力量。
【详解】24.细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Like his father, basketball star Dell Curry, Stephen spent many childhood hours playing on this muddy basketball court. With every shot, the weak plastic backboard gave way. The bumps and rocks that lined the road under the basket caused the ball to bounce in all directions. Knowing where the ball would go wasn’t easy. Only shots perfectly aimed at its centre went into the heavy, thick basket. In this way, practising day in and day out helped Stephen sharpen his skills.(和他的父亲、篮球明星戴尔·库里一样,斯蒂芬童年时在这个泥泞的篮球场上度过了许多时光。每次投篮,脆弱的塑料篮板都会变形。篮筐下方道路两旁的凸起和石头让球弹向四面八方。要知道球会落到哪里并不容易。只有精准瞄准中心的投篮才能进入那个沉重厚实的篮筐。通过这种方式,日复一日的练习帮助斯蒂芬提高了他的技能)”可知,斯蒂芬·库里童年时的练球条件十分艰苦,但他正是在这样的条件下不断进步,提升了自己的球技。故选D项。
25.细节理解题。根据第三段中的“Despite his father’s successful career, Stephen was thought by many people, including his high school teammates and coaches, to be too short, too thin and too weak to follow in his father’s footsteps.(尽管他的父亲职业生涯很成功,但包括他的高中队友和教练在内的许多人都认为斯蒂芬太矮、太瘦、太弱,无法追随他父亲的脚步)”可知,许多人质疑斯蒂芬,是因为他们认为斯蒂芬的身体条件不适合打篮球,无法像他父亲一样取得成功。故选A项。
26.词句猜测题。根据第五段中的“Stephen explainedhis philosophy, “I never really set out to change the game…What I wanted to do was just be myself…You’ve got to be able to put in the time and the work. That’s how I got here.”(斯蒂芬解释了他的philosophy:“我从未真正打算改变这项运动……我想做的只是做我自己……你必须能够投入时间和努力。这就是我走到今天的原因。”)”可知,斯蒂芬后面说的话是他对待人生和工作的态度、信念,因此划线词philosophy应意为“人生和工作信念”。故选B项。
27.推理判断题。根据全文内容,结合第二段“practising day in and day out helped Stephen sharpen his skills.(日复一日的练习帮助斯蒂芬提高了他的技能)”、第四段“He performed beyond everyone’s expectations with his perfect shooting and continuous efforts.(凭借完美的投篮和持续的努力,他的表现超出了所有人的预期)”以及第五段“You’ve got to be able to put in the time and the work. That’s how I got here.(你必须能够投入时间和努力。这就是我走到今天的原因)”可知,斯蒂芬·库里童年时在艰苦条件下坚持练球,克服他人质疑,凭借不懈的努力和付出,最终成为NBA超级巨星。由此我们可以从他的故事中学会:努力终有回报。故选A项。
(本题10分)Have you ever wondered what astronauts eat in space and how those recipes (食谱) are developed? Every year, HUNCH challenges high schools around the world to develop delicious recipes to support astronauts in space. The HUNCH Culinary (烹饪的) Competition provides students the opportunity to create dishes for astronauts on the International Space Station (ISS). Students must create tasty recipes following a specific food processing procedure and meeting certain dietary requirements.
Each year, high schools receive a theme (主题), and students develop recipes accordingly. Then, student groups present their works to local space centers for taste tests conducted by industry professionals and center staff. After those early competitions, student teams with the highest scores from across the country are invited to Space Center Houston, which has hosted the event for 11 years. During the finals, all visitors to the center are invited to cheer on student groups.
This year’s dish theme was traditional Mexican food: tacos. Ten high school culinary teams were selected to compete in the final round of the competition, which celebrated the mix of science and culinary creativity. Their work was judged by Food Lab staff, industry professionals, the ISS program office, and astronauts based on quality, taste, research paper, and presentation video.
Space Center Houston President and CEO William T. Harris said students had to consider “the chemistry behind the dish, food preservation, and dietary needs” when making their dishes. He added that the strict limit on salt intake in space makes it difficult to achieve rich taste, so students must find other ways to season their recipes.
Through this program, students build culinary skills while developing experience in research and professional presentations. The winning dish will be processed by the Johnson Space Center Food Lab and sent to the ISS for astronauts to enjoy.
28.(2.5分)What happens to the best-performing students after the early competitions?
A.They send recipes to the ISS. B.They receive next year’s theme.
C.They compete at the host center. D.They get recipes checked by experts.
29.(2.5分)What can we infer about this year’s competition?
A.It valued taste over dietary needs.
B.It closed the final round to the public.
C.It mixed practical and academic work.
D.It required individual work in the finals.
30.(2.5分)What makes it hard to create tasty food in space?
A.The limited space for cooking. B.The low amount of salt allowed.
C.The difficulty in keeping food fresh. D.The strict food processing procedure.
31.(2.5分)What is the main purpose of the text?
A.To present challenges in space. B.To promote new food products.
C.To announce competition results. D.To introduce a cooking competition.
【答案】28.C 29.C 30.B 31.D
【导语】文章主要介绍了面向全球高中生举办的HUNCH烹饪大赛,该赛事号召高中生开发符合要求的太空食谱,供国际空间站宇航员食用,文章介绍了赛事的举办流程、今年赛事的相关内容以及举办该赛事的意义。
【详解】28.细节理解题。根据文章第二段“After those early competitions, student teams with the highest scores from across the country are invited to Space Center Houston, which has hosted the event for 11 years.(在初赛结束后,全国各地得分最高的学生队伍会被邀请至已经主办该赛事11年的休斯顿航天中心。)”可知,表现最好的学生会前往主办中心参加比赛。
29.推理判断题。根据文章第三段“...which celebrated the mix of science and culinary creativity. Their work was judged by Food Lab staff, industry professionals, the ISS program office, and astronauts based on quality, taste, research paper, and presentation video.(……该赛事融合了科学与烹饪创造力。参赛作品会由食品实验室工作人员、行业专家、国际空间站项目办公室和宇航员根据菜品品质、口味、研究论文和展示视频进行评分。)”,结合第五段“Through this program, students build culinary skills while developing experience in research and professional presentations.(通过该项目,学生们在锻炼烹饪技能的同时,也积累了研究和专业展示的经验。)”可知,今年的比赛结合了实践操作与学术工作。
30.细节理解题。根据文章第四段“He added that the strict limit on salt intake in space makes it difficult to achieve rich taste, so students must find other ways to season their recipes.(他补充说,太空中严格的盐摄入限制使得食物很难拥有浓郁的风味,因此学生必须找到其他方法来给食谱调味。)”可知,允许摄入的盐量低导致太空美食难以制作。
31.推理判断题。通读全文可知,文章围绕HUNCH烹饪大赛展开,介绍了该赛事的创办目的、举办流程、相关要求等内容,因此本文的主要目的是介绍这项烹饪比赛。
(本题10分)Teenagers have long been told that being active and taking part in various sports is good for their health. But new research suggests that too much sport for teenagers could negatively affect their well-being just as much as too little sport.
Researchers from Switzerland say their study suggests that 14 hours of physical activity a week is best for promoting good health in teenagers. However, they found that more than 14 hours appears to be detrimental to their health. To reach their findings, the researchers surveyed more than 1,245 teenagers aged between 16 and 20 from Switzerland.
All participants were required to answer questions on height and weight, sports practice, sports injuries and well-being. Their well-being was assessed (评估) using the World Health Organization (WHO) Well-Being Index, and the average well-being score for all participants was 17.
The researchers divided sports participation into low (0-3.5 hours a week), average (3.6-10.5 hours), high (10.6-17.5 hours), and very high (more than 17.5 hours). The researchers found that participants in the low and very high activity groups were more than twice as likely to have well-being scores below 13, compared with participants in the average group. The researchers found that the highest well-being scores were gotten by participants who carried out around 14 hours of physical activity a week, but exercising beyond 14 hours resulted in lower well-being scores.
Commenting on their findings, the researchers say physical activity has been connected with positive emotional well-being, reduced sadness, anxiety and stress disorders, and improved self-respect in teenagers.
The researchers suggest that their study stresses the importance for physicians caring for teenagers to check their level of sports practice and ask them about their well-being. Teenagers probably need a supportive and closer follow-up of their health and well-being. The findings can provide information for guideline groups who produce recommendations on sports practice for teenagers.
32.(2.5分)What does the underlined word “detrimental” in paragraph 2 mean?
A.Normal. B.Helpful.
C.Harmful. D.Necessary.
33.(2.5分)What is paragraph 4 mainly about concerning the study?
A.Its impact. B.Its findings.
C.Its limitations. D.Its application.
34.(2.5分)We can infer from the passage ______.
A.researchers are planning a follow-up study
B.guideline groups have set new rules for teenagers
C.how much teens exercise matters for their well-being
D.physicians should recommend sports practice for teens
35.(2.5分)Where is this text probably taken from?
A.A storybook. B.A fitness diary.
C.A sports magazine. D.A fashion newspaper.
【答案】32.C 33.B 34.C 35.C
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了一项瑞士的研究,发现青少年每周约14小时的体育活动最有益于幸福感,运动量过少或过多均会降低幸福感,并建议医生关注青少年的运动量以促进其健康。
【详解】32.词句猜测题。划线词的上文“Researchers from Switzerland say their study suggests that 14 hours of physical activity a week is best for promoting good health in teenagers. (瑞士的研究人员表示,他们的研究结果表明,每周进行14小时的体育锻炼对青少年保持健康最为有益。)”提到每周14小时体育活动对青少年健康最有益,画线词所在句用“However (然而)”表示转折,说明超过14小时会带来相反效果,所以划线词detrimental的意思应该是“有害的”,与Harmful意思相近。故选C项。
33.主旨大意题。根据第四段中“The researchers found that participants in the low and very high activity groups were more than twice as likely to have well-being scores below 13, compared with participants in the average group. The researchers found that the highest well-being scores were gotten by participants who carried out around 14 hours of physical activity a week, but exercising beyond 14 hours resulted in lower well-being scores. (研究人员发现,低活动量组和极高活动量组的参与者,其幸福感得分低于13分的比例是平均水平组的两倍多。研究人员还发现,每周进行约14小时体育活动的参与者幸福感得分最高,但超过14小时的锻炼会导致幸福感得分降低。)”可知,该段主要介绍了该研究的具体发现,包括不同运动时长分组与青少年幸福感得分之间的关系。故选B项。
34.推理判断题。根据第四段中“The researchers found that participants in the low and very high activity groups were more than twice as likely to have well-being scores below 13, compared with participants in the average group. (研究人员发现,低活动量组和极高活动量组的参与者,其幸福感得分低于13分的比例是平均水平组的两倍多。)”可知,青少年运动量过多或过少都会降低幸福感。由此推断,青少年运动量的多少对其幸福感有重要影响。故选C项。
35.推理判断题。通读全文,尤其是第一段中“But new research suggests that too much sport for teenagers could negatively affect their well-being just as much as too little sport. (但新的研究表明,对于青少年来说,运动量过大与运动量过少一样,都会对他们的身心健康产生负面影响。)”可知,本文介绍了一项关于青少年运动时长与幸福感关系的科学研究,并讨论了其对医学指导和健康建议的潜在意义,文章聚焦于运动、健康与研究,很可能选自一本体育杂志。故选C项。

(本题15分)Wang Guilan, a 72-year-old Chinese woman, has been known as “Super Grannie” for her 41 of running. Most people choose to 42 after they retire from work, but Wang Guilan is not one of them. She started 43 at the age of 50, but soon realized it was her passion and developed close relationships with other runners. In 2021, she set a new record by becoming the 44 person to ever complete a 168-kilometer marathon. And so far, she has completed over 100 marathons.
Wang Guilan’s impressive achievements have attracted attention from runners of all ages. A runner in his twenties expressed his 45 , saying, “This lady is as old as my grandmother, how can she run so fast?” After running the 110 km version of the marathon with her 46 in 2020, Wang waited for them to 47 for about 5-6 hours so that they could 48 the finishing line together. Therefore, this year, she took part in the marathon 49 and chose the longest distance.
So how does a 70-year-old stay in such a good 50 that she can achieve what most people half her age can’t? According to Sina, one 51 is that Wang Guilan runs at least 20 kilometers every day. In addition, she follows a 52 diet and sleeps for at least 8 hours every day to ensure that her body is well-rested and energized.
Wang Guilan’s passion for running has also inspired many people in China. She has been invited to give 53 at various events and has even been featured in a documentary about her life. Her message to everyone is 54 but powerful: “Age is just a number. As long as you have the determination and the willpower, you can 55 anything you set your mind to.”

Dear Xiao Li,
My time here in China is going well. I love my new school and classmates. Over the October holiday, my parents and I are 56(1.5分) (plan) to go to Xi’an to see the Terracotta Army. I’ve heard that it is an amazing sight, and I can’t wait 57(1.5分) (go). To me, the story of the Terracotta Army is 58(1.5分) (near) unbelievable. It’s amazing that there are more than 8,000 statues, and no one in modern times knew about them until 59(1.5分) 1970s.
We also plan to visit several other places in Xi’an. My dad and I are both looking forward to 60(1.5分) (go) to the Shaanxi History Museum, because my dad loves history and I have heard that this museum is known 61(1.5分) a “Chinese treasure house”! We’re also going to the Xi’an City Wall and a few other famous 62(1.5分) (sight).
We’re taking the train, leaving the day before the October holiday 63(1.5分) (begin). We’re arriving at 9:30 a. m. 64(1.5分) will start sightseeing right away, so I hope we sleep well on the train!
I guess that’s all for now! I’ll write again soon and send photos! Do you have any plans for the coming holiday? Hope to hear 65(1.5分) you soon.
Your friend,
Richard
【答案】
56.planning 57.to go 58.nearly 59.the 60.going 61.as 62.sights 63.begins 64.and 65.from
【导语】本文是一篇应用文。文章主要讲述 Richard告知小李国庆假期计划去西安旅行的相关安排并询问其假期计划。
【详解】56.考查动词时态。句意:在十月假期期间,我和我的父母计划去西安看兵马俑。空处为句子的谓语动词。根据“Over the October holiday”及空前的are可知,此处表示现阶段正在进行的计划,需用现在进行时:am/is/are +doing。故填planning。
57.考查非谓语动词。句意:我听说那是一个令人惊叹的景象,我迫不及待地想去。固定搭配can’t wait to do sth.“迫不及待做某事”。故填to go。
58.考查副词。句意:对我来说,兵马俑的故事几乎令人难以置信。空处需用副词作状语修饰形容词unbelievable,near的副词为nearly“几乎,差不多”。故填nearly。
59.考查冠词。句意:令人惊讶的是,这里有8000多尊雕像,直到20世纪70年代,现代人才知道它们的存在。表示年代需用定冠词the,固定搭配the 1970s“20世纪70年代”。故填the。
60.考查非谓语动词。句意:我爸爸和我都期待着去陕西历史博物馆,因为我爸爸喜欢历史,我听说这个博物馆被誉为“中国宝库”!固定搭配look forward to doing sth.“期待做某事”,所以空处需用动名词going。故填going。
61.考查介词。句意同上。固定搭配be known as“被誉为……”。故填as。
62.考查名词复数。句意:我们还要去西安城墙和其他一些著名的景点。a few other+可数名词复数,表示“另外一些……”,所以空处需用名词sight的复数sights。故填sights。
63.考查动词时态。句意:我们打算坐火车,在国庆假期开始的前一天出发。此处为before引导的时间状语从句,主句为现在进行时表将来,从句需用一般现在时表将来;主语“the October holiday”为第三人称单数,谓语动词需用第三人称单数形式。故填begins。
64.考查连词。句意:句意:我们上午9点30分到达,然后立即开始观光,所以我希望我们在火车上睡个好觉!空处前后为两个并列的谓语动作“are arriving”和“will start”,逻辑上为顺承关系,需用连词and连接。故填and。
65.考查介词。句意:希望很快能收到你的来信。hear from“收到……的来信”,固定搭配。故填from。

六、书面表达
67.(本题25分)阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
One year at summer camp, I had been working hard preparing for a canoeing (划艇) exam. I put in hours and hours trying to build up my strength and learn new skills.
Rising each day at six, I persevered, practicing bow-cut landings and paddling miles back and forth across the lake until the sun set. Weeks slipped by, and I knew I had given everything I could to reach my goal and pass the exam. I had completed the strokes, landings and a three-mile trip. All that lay ahead was a portage (搬运) across a hilly path, and I would get my badge (徽章).
On the last day for testing, the weather suddenly turned bad. All swimmers and boaters were grounded because of the oncoming storm. As the wind picked up, I felt a knot growing in my stomach. Although my arms had strengthened considerably over the weeks at camp, my legs were still weak by comparison. I began to wonder if all my hard work had been in vain. My partner Ali was thinking the same thing. Each day at dawn, she and I would practice together.
Now the final test lay before us. In order to pass, each pair was required to lift a canoe up onto our shoulders, run down a hill, turn around and head back up, without the canoe touching the ground. It was a one-shot deal — if the canoe touched the ground, we’d fail.
Our pair came first, and we took off down the rocky hill. As I ran, the wind tore at the bow, and I had to fight to keep from losing my balance. My ankles burned and my arms throbbed, but my knees held out. Finally, we reached the turnaround point. But I realized I didn't have the strength to carry the canoe uphill. A wave of fear swept over me. I couldn't fail now — not after all this work!
注意:
(1) 续写词数应为150个左右;
(2) 请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。
Just then, Ali stepped closer and gave me an encouraging smile.
__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
This time I steadied the canoe in front, and Ali took the back.
_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】One possible version:
Just then, Ali stepped closer and gave me an encouraging smile. “We trained together, and we’ll finish together,” she whispered. Her words quieted the panic in my heart and gave me strength. Without wasting a second, she offered a plan: she would take the back of the canoe, support it from behind and carry more of the weight on the way up, while I stayed in front to keep it steady and set the pace. Simple as it was, the plan gave me hope. I nodded, still breathing hard, and shifted my hands carefully on the canoe. Ali moved behind me and placed her shoulder under the back end.
This time I steadied the canoe in front, and Ali took the back. Step by step, we fought our way up the hill. Whenever my knees shook, Ali slowed down and took more of the weight. At last, we reached the top, the canoe still balanced safely on our shoulders. The examiner nodded. We had passed. As the rain splashed down on my face, emotion welled up inside me. I hugged Ali tightly, my heart overflowing with gratitude. Holding the badge in my hand, I knew I could never have earned it without her help. It was not only a badge for hard work, but also a lasting lesson in friendship and teamwork.
【导语】本文以人物为线索展开,讲述作者为获得划艇徽章刻苦训练许久,在最终考核时遭遇恶劣天气,返程上坡体力不支、心生恐惧,搭档阿里主动伸出援手、默契配合,二人协力完成考核,最终成功过关,作者深刻领悟友谊与团队协作重要意义的故事。

(本题10分)Near the small town of Grottoes, Virginia, a narrow dirt road goes from the house of Stephen Curry’s grandfather to the woods nearby. It was along this road that Stephen’s grandfather built a simple basket by attaching a piece of plastic to a telephone pole.
Like his father, basketball star Dell Curry, Stephen spent many childhood hours playing on this muddy basketball court. With every shot, the weak plastic backboard gave way. The bumps and rocks that lined the road under the basket caused the ball to bounce in all directions. Knowing where the ball would go wasn’t easy. Only shots perfectly aimed at its centre went into the heavy, thick basket. In this way, practising day in and day out helped Stephen sharpen his skills.
Despite his father’s successful career, Stephen was thought by many people, including his high school teammates and coaches, to be too short, too thin and too weak to follow in his father’s footsteps. But Stephen carried on. Playing basketball was his dream. He would not give up. He finally ended up playing college ball at a small, little-known school.
Selected for the NBA in 2009, Stephen joined the Golden State Warriors. He performed beyond everyone’s expectations with his perfect shooting and continuous efforts. He’s led the Warriors to four championships since 2015 and received many MVP awards.
Stephen explained his philosophy, “I never really set out to change the game… What I wanted to do was just be myself… You’ve got to be able to put in the time and the work. That’s how I got here.” Curry’s journey from an underdog to an NBA superstar inspires athletes worldwide. His focus on perfecting his skills influences fans of all ages. Curry’s story encourages young players to believe in their abilities and work tirelessly to achieve their dreams.

(本题10分)Have you ever wondered what astronauts eat in space and how those recipes (食谱) are developed? Every year, HUNCH challenges high schools around the world to develop delicious recipes to support astronauts in space. The HUNCH Culinary (烹饪的) Competition provides students the opportunity to create dishes for astronauts on the International Space Station (ISS). Students must create tasty recipes following a specific food processing procedure and meeting certain dietary requirements.
Each year, high schools receive a theme (主题), and students develop recipes accordingly. Then, student groups present their works to local space centers for taste tests conducted by industry professionals and center staff. After those early competitions, student teams with the highest scores from across the country are invited to Space Center Houston, which has hosted the event for 11 years. During the finals, all visitors to the center are invited to cheer on student groups.
This year’s dish theme was traditional Mexican food: tacos. Ten high school culinary teams were selected to compete in the final round of the competition, which celebrated the mix of science and culinary creativity. Their work was judged by Food Lab staff, industry professionals, the ISS program office, and astronauts based on quality, taste, research paper, and presentation video.
Space Center Houston President and CEO William T. Harris said students had to consider “the chemistry behind the dish, food preservation, and dietary needs” when making their dishes. He added that the strict limit on salt intake in space makes it difficult to achieve rich taste, so students must find other ways to season their recipes.
Through this program, students build culinary skills while developing experience in research and professional presentations. The winning dish will be processed by the Johnson Space Center Food Lab and sent to the ISS for astronauts to enjoy.
28.(2.5分)What happens to the best-performing students after the early competitions?
A.They send recipes to the ISS. B.They receive next year’s theme.
C.They compete at the host center. D.They get recipes checked by experts.

B.It closed the final round to the public.
C.It mixed practical and academic work.
D.It required individual work in the finals.
30.(2.5分)What makes it hard to create tasty food in space?
A.The limited space for cooking. B.The low amount of salt allowed.
C.The difficulty in keeping food fresh. D.The strict food processing procedure.
31.(2.5分)What is the main purpose of the text?
A.To present challenges in space. B.To promote new food products.
C.To announce competition results. D.To introduce a cooking competition.
(本题10分)Teenagers have long been told that being active and taking part in various sports is good for their health. But new research suggests that too much sport for teenagers could negatively affect their well-being just as much as too little sport.
Researchers from Switzerland say their study suggests that 14 hours of physical activity a week is best for promoting good health in teenagers. However, they found that more than 14 hours appears to be detrimental to their health. To reach their findings, the researchers surveyed more than 1,245 teenagers aged between 16 and 20 from Switzerland.
All participants were required to answer questions on height and weight, sports practice, sports injuries and well-being. Their well-being was assessed (评估) using the World Health Organization (WHO) Well-Being Index, and the average well-being score for all participants was 17.
The researchers divided sports participation into low (0-3.5 hours a week), average (3.6-10.5 hours), high (10.6-17.5 hours), and very high (more than 17.5 hours). The researchers found that participants in the low and very high activity groups were more than twice as likely to have well-being scores below 13, compared with participants in the average group. The researchers found that the highest well-being scores were gotten by participants who carried out around 14 hours of physical activity a week, but exercising beyond 14 hours resulted in lower well-being scores.
Commenting on their findings, the researchers say physical activity has been connected with positive emotional well-being, reduced sadness, anxiety and stress disorders, and improved self-respect in teenagers.
The researchers suggest that their study stresses the importance for physicians caring for teenagers to check their level of sports practice and ask them about their well-being. Teenagers probably need a supportive and closer follow-up of their health and well-being. The findings can provide information for guideline groups who produce recommendations on sports practice for teenagers.
32.(2.5分)What does the underlined word “detrimental” in paragraph 2 mean?
A.Normal. B.Helpful.
C.Harmful. D.Necessary.
33.(2.5分)What is paragraph 4 mainly about concerning the study?
A.Its impact. B.Its findings.
C.Its limitations. D.Its application.
34.(2.5分)We can infer from the passage ______.
A.researchers are planning a follow-up study
B.guideline groups have set new rules for teenagers
C.how much teens exercise matters for their well-being
D.physicians should recommend sports practice for teens
35.(2.5分)Where is this text probably taken from?
A.A storybook. B.A fitness diary.
C.A sports magazine. D.A fashion newspaper.

Dear Xiao Li,
My time here in China is going well. I love my new school and classmates. Over the October holiday, my parents and I are 56(1.5分) (plan) to go to Xi’an to see the Terracotta Army. I’ve heard that it is an amazing sight, and I can’t wait 57(1.5分) (go). To me, the story of the Terracotta Army is 58(1.5分) (near) unbelievable. It’s amazing that there are more than 8,000 statues, and no one in modern times knew about them until 59(1.5分) 1970s.
We also plan to visit several other places in Xi’an. My dad and I are both looking forward to 60(1.5分) (go) to the Shaanxi History Museum, because my dad loves history and I have heard that this museum is known 61(1.5分) a “Chinese treasure house”! We’re also going to the Xi’an City Wall and a few other famous 62(1.5分) (sight).
We’re taking the train, leaving the day before the October holiday 63(1.5分) (begin). We’re arriving at 9:30 a. m. 64(1.5分) will start sightseeing right away, so I hope we sleep well on the train!

Your friend,
Richard

六、书面表达
67.(本题25分)阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
One year at summer camp, I had been working hard preparing for a canoeing (划艇) exam. I put in hours and hours trying to build up my strength and learn new skills.
Rising each day at six, I persevered, practicing bow-cut landings and paddling miles back and forth across the lake until the sun set. Weeks slipped by, and I knew I had given everything I could to reach my goal and pass the exam. I had completed the strokes, landings and a three-mile trip. All that lay ahead was a portage (搬运) across a hilly path, and I would get my badge (徽章).
On the last day for testing, the weather suddenly turned bad. All swimmers and boaters were grounded because of the oncoming storm. As the wind picked up, I felt a knot growing in my stomach. Although my arms had strengthened considerably over the weeks at camp, my legs were still weak by comparison. I began to wonder if all my hard work had been in vain. My partner Ali was thinking the same thing. Each day at dawn, she and I would practice together.
Now the final test lay before us. In order to pass, each pair was required to lift a canoe up onto our shoulders, run down a hill, turn around and head back up, without the canoe touching the ground. It was a one-shot deal — if the canoe touched the ground, we’d fail.
Our pair came first, and we took off down the rocky hill. As I ran, the wind tore at the bow, and I had to fight to keep from losing my balance. My ankles burned and my arms throbbed, but my knees held out. Finally, we reached the turnaround point. But I realized I didn't have the strength to carry the canoe uphill. A wave of fear swept over me. I couldn't fail now — not after all this work!
注意:
(1) 续写词数应为150个左右;
(2) 请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。
Just then, Ali stepped closer and gave me an encouraging smile.
__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
This time I steadied the canoe in front, and Ali took the back.
