Charlie was my grandson’s first best friend, who had become close friends in kindergarten. “Our class is making cards for Mother’s Day,” he explained, “but when I asked the teacher when Grandma’s Day was, she said that there really wasn’t one. So, Charlie and I are going to make a day”, he assured me, “but we need a grandma for Charlie. I have two, but he doesn’t even have one.” Our house was no more than a quick twenty-minute drive away. I could hardly refuse his sweet request. Three days later, I found an envelope with two large red hearts, where a stamp would usually be attached, under my pillow: Grandmother’s Day, 2:00 p.m., Saturday, May 13. At the appointed time, I knocked on the screen door. Welcoming yellow and blue balloons were tied to the handle, so I did not want to risk pulling it open. The boys were clean and excited, waiting for me eagerly. The table was beautifully prepared with lemonade, forks and themed napkins (餐巾). Every piece was covered with different stickers, such as stars, animals, trucks and cars. Mine had a warm little grandma pattern, with the words “Happy Grandmother’s Day” on it. Charlie could not hide his pride and said happily that his mother had made a chocolate cake for the event, “But,” he told everyone, “you have to eat a sandwich first. And,” he continued without a pause, “MY GRANDMOTHER came to my house yesterday, and we decorated the cake with cream together.” “No!” Milo immediately corrected. “That’s MY grandmother.” He frowned (皱眉) firmly, unwilling to share me with anyone else. Noticing their argument, I was about to kneel down and comfort them. But Milo suddenly calmed himself down, looked at Charlie sincerely and said, “Next Grandmother’s Day, we’ll prepare everything together from start to finish. And we’ll save the biggest piece for Grandma-no arguing. We’ll celebrate happily and have a wonderful Grandmother’s Day again.” 24．(2.5分)Why did Milo turn to the author for help? A．To act as Charlie’s grandma. B．To prepare a family gathering. C．To accompany his lonely friend. D．To draw a card for Mother’s Day. 25．(2.5分)How did the author react to Milo’s request? A．She felt surprised at the boy’s plan. B．She thought the boy’s idea was creative. C．She was touched by Milo’s sincere idea.

It’s a festival that feels both timely and necessary. In an age of deliberately designed online lives, it offers something genuine: the chance to light a campfire, learn a craft from an expert, share stories face-to-face, or simply enjoy a moment of collective silence under the stars. The event, held on a beautiful country estate in Wales, is built on the belief that happiness is found in participation and creation, not just consumption. Its programme, accordingly, is a thoughtfully curated (筹办) mix of the hands-on and the inspirational. You might find yourself learning to forge a knife one hour, and listening to a celebrated author read by the river the next. There are workshops in leatherworking and woodcraft, opportunities to try wild swimming, and countless campfires around which strangers become friends through conversation. The food stalls prioritize local and seasonal produce, and the music stages feature everything from folk to soul, often inviting audience participation. “We wanted to create a space where people could switch off from the digital noise and reconnect with their own hands, minds, and with each other,” says Matthews. “It’s about the joy of making something, the satisfaction of learning a skill your ancestors might have known, and the deep connections that form when you share that experience. ” The festival challenges the modern idea of entertainment as a passive activity. It’s a cure for the speed and isolation of contemporary life, promoting slowness, skill-sharing, and community. It’s an example of a richer, more connected way of living. 28．(2.5分)Why did the author describe the festival as timely and necessary? A．Because it promotes Welsh tourism. B．Because it was founded by a famous singer. C．Because it promotes hands-on activities. D．Because it resists artificial online lives. 29．(2.5分)What is the core value of the Good Life Experience? A．Passive enjoyment of wonderful scenery. B．Consumption of expensive local produce. C．Active participation and mutual connection. D．Promotion of digital entertainment culture. 30．(2.5分)What can we learn about the programs of the festival? A．They focus only on practical craft skills. B．They encourage audience involvement. C．They are mainly commercial performances. D．They are designed for professional artists. 31．(2.5分)What can we infer from Cerys Matthews’ words? A．She hopes people can escape digital distractions. B．She thinks ancestors’ skills are outdated. C．She prefers online interaction to face-to-face talks. D．She aims to make the festival a commercial success. （本题10分）Cinco de Mayo is probably the holiday most often celebrated that no one understands. Literally (根据字面意思) “Fifth of May”, Cinco de Mayo is a Mexican holiday celebrating the Battle of Puebla, which took place on May 5, 1862. In 1861, France sent a big army to invade Mexico, as they wanted to collect some war debts. The French army was much larger, better trained and equipped than the Mexicans struggling to defend (保卫) the road to Mexico City. The French army reached Puebla, where the Mexicans won a huge victory. The victory was short­lived, as the French army regrouped and continued, and eventually took Mexico City, but the joy of an unlikely victory against France is remembered every May fifth. Mexico celebrates its independence on September 16, because it was on that day in 1810 that Miguel Hidalgo invited his people to take up arms and join him in fighting against Spanish rulers. Independence Day is a much more important holiday in Mexico. For some reason, Cinco de Mayo is celebrated more in the United States of America, by Mexicans and Americans alike, than it is in Mexico. One theory for why it is more popular in the USA is that at one time, it was celebrated in all of Mexico and by Mexicans living in former Mexican areas such as Texas and California. It was ignored in Mexico after a while but still celebrated in the north of the border, which never got out of the habit of remembering the famous battle. In Puebla and in many American cities with large Mexican populations, there are parades, dancing and festivals. Traditional Mexican food is often served or sold. Mariachi (街头音乐) bands fill town squares, and a lot of beers are served. It’s a fun holiday, really more about celebrating the Mexican way of life than about remembering the battle which happened 157 years ago. In the USA, schoolchildren decorate their classrooms and try their hand at cooking some basic Mexican food. All over the world, Mexican restaurants bring in mariachi bands and offer specials for what’s almost certain to be a packed house. 32．(2.5分)Why do more Americans celebrate Cinco de Mayo? A．Some American areas once belonged to Mexico. B．Americans are influenced by Mexican culture. C．Mexicans don’t form the habit of having a holiday. D．Many Mexicans value Independence Day. 33．(2.5分)How can schoolchildren celebrate Cinco de Mayo? A．By performing music at restaurants. B．By trying making some Mexican food. C．By turning the classroom into a battlefield. D．By offering special gifts to their teachers. 34．(2.5分)By celebrating Cinco de Mayo, people mainly show ________. A．where the history is honored most B．what special customs they have C．how Mexicans gained independence D．who should be remembered forever 35．(2.5分)According to the passage, people celebrate Cinco de Mayo because Mexicans ________. A．paid off their war debts B．succeeded in defending Mexico City C．gained independence from Spanish D．defeated the French army in Puebla （本题12.5分）World Savings Day is a holiday. 36(2.5分) This holiday encourages everyone to think about the importance of starting a savings account.

The purpose of them creating this holiday was to encourage people not to keep their money at home but to place it in banks. 39(2.5分) After the end of WWII, economies (经济) were being rebuilt and people had more money in their pockets. As a result, this holiday became popular as World Savings Day. This holiday can be celebrated in several ways. First, a person can find out how much he needs to spend in a certain period and make a plan to save money every week.

The streets were dotted with fresh green bamboo leaves, and the air was filled with the faint fragrance of mugwort (艾蒿), announcing the arrival of the traditional festival. Seventeen-year-old Ethan, who had lived in the United States with his parents since childhood, was sent back to his hometown to spend the festival with his grandfather. Having grown up immersed in Western culture, Ethan held a strong sense of indifference towards traditional Chinese festivals. He regarded the Dragon Boat Festival as nothing but an old, outdated custom, far less attractive than Western carnivals and parties. All he wanted to do was stay in his room, scrolling through social media or playing online games, showing no interest in the festive atmosphere around him. Grandfather was a well-known local inheritor of traditional zongzi-making skills, and he had been eagerly looking forward to Ethan’s return, hoping to pass on the family craft and help his grandson connect with his cultural roots. He specially picked fresh bamboo leaves, prepared high-quality glutinous rice, sweet red beans and salty egg yolks, and invited Ethan to make zongzi with him. However, Ethan frowned and refused rudely without a second thought. He complained that making zongzi was tedious (冗长的) and time-consuming, and couldn’t understand why people still stuck to such old customs. Hearing his words, Grandfather’s smile faded away, and a deep sense of disappointment crossed his wrinkled face. He silently carried the ingredients to the courtyard, sitting alone on the stone bench, slowly folding the bamboo leaves. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Paragraph 1: Watching Grandfather’s bent back in the courtyard, Ethan was seized with a complicated mixture of guilt and hesitation. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: As the steaming zongzi were taken out, the rich fragrance filled the whole courtyard, touching Ethan’s heart deeply. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 试卷第1页，共3页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 2 / 2 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 高中英语单元测试——Unit 3 Celebrations（较难版01）（解析版） 学校:___________姓名：___________班级：___________考号：___________ 一、听力选择题 1．（本题1.5分）What are the speakers mainly talking about?

It is so popular that it is now celebrated in countries all over the world. Everywhere from Canada to the middle east. However, it pains me to realize how poorly Oktoberfest is understood. As I grew up in northern Bavaria, the state in the south of Germany. Where the festival began. This important cultural event is often seen as nothing more than a celebration of drinking and a wild party. Although local beer is certainly a large part of the celebrations, I would argue that Oktoberfest is so much more than that. The first October fest celebrated the marriage of the future king Ludwig I and queen Therese in 1810. Now, more than two centuries later, Oktoberfest is a celebration of Bavarian culture as a whole. It’s a time to wear traditional clothes, dance and sing to traditional music and eat special foods. Most importantly, Oktoberfest is a celebration of Joy. At the festival’s heart is the idea of communicating a general feeling of friendship and togetherness. That is the real meaning of Oktoberfest. 二、阅读理解 （本题7.5分）From: Hiro Katana <hirokboss@email.com> To: Rachel Baines <Rachel. baines@email.com> Re: Shhh...

Please feel free to add to the to-do list!! - Venue: Wendy said she has some connections. - Date: We said January 20th? Is that decided? Does Marty know this so he can make sure Jan is free that day? - Food: Hilary &Matt — decide on appetizers, or a sit-down meal? Dessert table? Or just a cake? - Entertainment: Jess — figure out whether to hire a band or a DJ? Or should we just play our own music? - Ticket prices: Rachel & Hiro decide on admission price to cover costs. - Invitations: Rachel & Hiro — figure out who to invite!!! Send out a “Save-the-Date” by December 15. Am I missing anything else? I feel like I’m forgetting something. Is it too luxury? Maybe we should make an alternate plan in case people don’t want to pay to go to a birthday party. Let me know! Hiro 21．(2.5分)What can be said about Hiro? A．He’s someone who has low self-respect.

It’s about a month away and we have barely got anything organized! I started a list and just gave people jobs.(我们得开始为Jan的惊喜派对做计划了。还有一个月左右，我们几乎还没组织好任何事情！我列了一个清单，给人们分配了任务)”可知，Hiro已经开始为派对做计划并给人们分配任务，Hiro是个爱管事、负责的人。故选C。 22．推理判断题。根据邮件中“Ticket prices: Rachel & Hiro decide on admission price to cover costs. Invitations: Rachel & Hiro — figure out who to invite!!! Send out a ‘Save-the-Date’ by December 15.(票价：Rachel和Hiro决定入场价格以覆盖成本。邀请：Rachel和Hiro——确定邀请谁！！！在12月15日前发送“预留日期”)”可知， 在票价和邀请等事项上都需要Rachel和Hiro共同决定和处理，Rachel是派对的共同组织者。故选A。 23．细节理解题。根据邮件中最后一段“Is it too luxury? Maybe we should make an alternate plan in case people don’t want to pay to go to a birthday party.(是不是太奢侈了？也许我们应该制定一个备用计划，以防人们不想花钱去参加生日派对)”可知， Hiro担心派对过于奢华，人们可能不愿意付钱参加，即Hiro担心派对过于铺张。故选B。 （本题10分）One day, my young grandson Milo asked me a special favor: he needed to “borrow” a grandmother for his best friend Charlie. Charlie was my grandson’s first best friend, who had become close friends in kindergarten. “Our class is making cards for Mother’s Day,” he explained, “but when I asked the teacher when Grandma’s Day was, she said that there really wasn’t one. So, Charlie and I are going to make a day”, he assured me, “but we need a grandma for Charlie. I have two, but he doesn’t even have one.” Our house was no more than a quick twenty-minute drive away. I could hardly refuse his sweet request. Three days later, I found an envelope with two large red hearts, where a stamp would usually be attached, under my pillow: Grandmother’s Day, 2:00 p.m., Saturday, May 13. At the appointed time, I knocked on the screen door. Welcoming yellow and blue balloons were tied to the handle, so I did not want to risk pulling it open. The boys were clean and excited, waiting for me eagerly. The table was beautifully prepared with lemonade, forks and themed napkins (餐巾). Every piece was covered with different stickers, such as stars, animals, trucks and cars. Mine had a warm little grandma pattern, with the words “Happy Grandmother’s Day” on it. Charlie could not hide his pride and said happily that his mother had made a chocolate cake for the event, “But,” he told everyone, “you have to eat a sandwich first. And,” he continued without a pause, “MY GRANDMOTHER came to my house yesterday, and we decorated the cake with cream together.” “No!” Milo immediately corrected. “That’s MY grandmother.” He frowned (皱眉) firmly, unwilling to share me with anyone else. Noticing their argument, I was about to kneel down and comfort them. But Milo suddenly calmed himself down, looked at Charlie sincerely and said, “Next Grandmother’s Day, we’ll prepare everything together from start to finish. And we’ll save the biggest piece for Grandma-no arguing. We’ll celebrate happily and have a wonderful Grandmother’s Day again.” 24．(2.5分)Why did Milo turn to the author for help? A．To act as Charlie’s grandma. B．To prepare a family gathering. C．To accompany his lonely friend. D．To draw a card for Mother’s Day. 25．(2.5分)How did the author react to Milo’s request? A．She felt surprised at the boy’s plan. B．She thought the boy’s idea was creative. C．She was touched by Milo’s sincere idea. D．She wondered if the plan would work well. 26．(2.5分)Which of the following best describes Milo? A．Caring and easy-going. B．Childish but thoughtful. C．Independent and devoting. D．Self-centered but determined. 27．(2.5分)What is the main theme of the passage? A．The warmth of family and friendship. B．The value of friendship between kids. C．The courage of solving disagreements. D．The love from the elderly to the young. 【答案】24．A 25．C 26．B 27．A 【导语】主要讲述男孩麦洛为好友筹办专属祖母节、借他人奶奶参与庆祝，展现纯真友谊与温情亲情的温暖故事。 【详解】24．细节理解题。根据第一段中的“One day, my young grandson Milo asked me a special favor: he needed to “borrow” a grandmother for his best friend Charlie.(有一天，我的小孙子麦洛请我帮一个特别的忙：他需要为他最好的朋友查理“借”一位奶奶。)”可知，麦洛找作者帮忙，是希望作者充当查理的奶奶。 25．推理判断题。根据第二段中的“Our house was no more than a quick twenty-minute drive away. I could hardly refuse his sweet request.(我们家开车过去只需要短短二十分钟，我几乎无法拒绝他这个暖心的请求。)”可知，作者被麦洛真诚又暖心的想法打动，不忍心拒绝他。 26．推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“He frowned (皱眉) firmly, unwilling to share me with anyone else. Noticing their argument, I was about to kneel down and comfort them. But Milo suddenly calmed himself down, looked at Charlie sincerely and said, “Next Grandmother’s Day, we’ll prepare everything together from start to finish. And we’ll save the biggest piece for Grandma-no arguing. We’ll celebrate happily and have a wonderful Grandmother’s Day again.” (他坚定地皱起眉头，不愿将我分享给任何人。察觉到两人的争执，我正要蹲下身安抚他们。但麦洛突然平复了情绪，真诚地看向查理说道：“下一届祖母节，我们从头到尾一起准备所有事宜。我们会把最大的一份留给奶奶，不再争执。我们要快乐庆祝，再度度过一个美好的祖母节。”)”可知，麦洛一开始不愿分享奶奶，表现出孩子气的一面，但之后主动退让安抚朋友，十分体贴周到。 27．主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是全文事件脉络，麦洛为没有奶奶的好友筹办祖母节，庆祝过程充满孩童间真挚的友情，同时作者与两个孩子相处满是祖孙间温情，文中友情与亲情交织，由此可知，本文主要讲述的是“家庭和友谊的温暖”。 （本题10分）Founded by singer, author and broadcaster Cerys Matthews, the Good Life Experience is all about connecting guests with things that really matter, through music, food, literature, ideas, workshops and the great outdoors. It’s a festival that feels both timely and necessary. In an age of deliberately designed online lives, it offers something genuine: the chance to light a campfire, learn a craft from an expert, share stories face-to-face, or simply enjoy a moment of collective silence under the stars. The event, held on a beautiful country estate in Wales, is built on the belief that happiness is found in participation and creation, not just consumption. Its programme, accordingly, is a thoughtfully curated (筹办) mix of the hands-on and the inspirational. You might find yourself learning to forge a knife one hour, and listening to a celebrated author read by the river the next. There are workshops in leatherworking and woodcraft, opportunities to try wild swimming, and countless campfires around which strangers become friends through conversation. The food stalls prioritize local and seasonal produce, and the music stages feature everything from folk to soul, often inviting audience participation. “We wanted to create a space where people could switch off from the digital noise and reconnect with their own hands, minds, and with each other,” says Matthews. “It’s about the joy of making something, the satisfaction of learning a skill your ancestors might have known, and the deep connections that form when you share that experience. ” The festival challenges the modern idea of entertainment as a passive activity. It’s a cure for the speed and isolation of contemporary life, promoting slowness, skill-sharing, and community. It’s an example of a richer, more connected way of living. 28．(2.5分)Why did the author describe the festival as timely and necessary? A．Because it promotes Welsh tourism. B．Because it was founded by a famous singer. C．Because it promotes hands-on activities. D．Because it resists artificial online lives. 29．(2.5分)What is the core value of the Good Life Experience? A．Passive enjoyment of wonderful scenery. B．Consumption of expensive local produce. C．Active participation and mutual connection. D．Promotion of digital entertainment culture. 30．(2.5分)What can we learn about the programs of the festival? A．They focus only on practical craft skills. B．They encourage audience involvement. C．They are mainly commercial performances. D．They are designed for professional artists. 31．(2.5分)What can we infer from Cerys Matthews’ words? A．She hopes people can escape digital distractions. B．She thinks ancestors’ skills are outdated. C．She prefers online interaction to face-to-face talks. D．She aims to make the festival a commercial success. 【答案】28．D 29．C 30．B 31．A 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章讲述Cerys Matthews创办的美好人生体验节在威尔士举办，以线下真实体验为核心，倡导参与创造与联结，对抗数字生活的浮躁与孤独。 28．推理判断题。根据第二段“In an age of deliberately designed online lives, it offers something genuine: the chance to light a campfire, learn a craft from an expert, share stories face-to-face, or simply enjoy a moment of collective silence under the stars.(在这个刻意打造线上生活的时代，它提供了真实的体验：有机会点燃篝火，向专家学习手艺，面对面分享故事，或只是在星空下享受片刻的集体宁静。)”可知，该节日在当下及时且必要，是因为它抵制虚假的线上生活，提供真实的线下体验。故选D项。 29．细节理解题。根据第三段“The event, held on a beautiful country estate in Wales, is built on the belief that happiness is found in participation and creation, not just consumption. (这场活动举办于威尔士一处风景优美的乡村庄园，其创办理念是：幸福源于参与和创造，而非单纯的索取。)”以及最后一段“It’s a cure for the speed and isolation of contemporary life, promoting slowness, skill-sharing, and community.(这一活动是治愈当代生活节奏过快与疏离感的良方，倡导慢生活、技艺共享与社群联结。)”可知，美好人生体验节的核心价值是主动参与和彼此联结。故选C项。 30．细节理解题。根据第三段“Its programme, accordingly, is a thoughtfully curated (筹办) mix of the hands-on and the inspirational. (因此，该活动的日程安排，是经精心策划的实践体验与灵感启迪的融合之作。)”和“The food stalls prioritize local and seasonal produce, and the music stages feature everything from folk to soul, often inviting audience participation.(美食摊位主打本地时令食材，音乐舞台汇聚民谣、灵乐等各类曲风，还常常邀请观众参与互动。)”可知，该节日的活动项目鼓励观众参与其中。故选B项。 31．推理判断题。根据第四段“We wanted to create a space where people could switch off from the digital noise and reconnect with their own hands, minds, and with each other,(我们希望打造一个空间，让人们能远离数字噪音，重新与自己的双手、思想以及彼此联结，)”可知，Cerys Matthews希望人们能摆脱数字信息的干扰。故选A项。 （本题10分）Cinco de Mayo is probably the holiday most often celebrated that no one understands. Literally (根据字面意思) “Fifth of May”, Cinco de Mayo is a Mexican holiday celebrating the Battle of Puebla, which took place on May 5, 1862. In 1861, France sent a big army to invade Mexico, as they wanted to collect some war debts. The French army was much larger, better trained and equipped than the Mexicans struggling to defend (保卫) the road to Mexico City. The French army reached Puebla, where the Mexicans won a huge victory. The victory was short­lived, as the French army regrouped and continued, and eventually took Mexico City, but the joy of an unlikely victory against France is remembered every May fifth. Mexico celebrates its independence on September 16, because it was on that day in 1810 that Miguel Hidalgo invited his people to take up arms and join him in fighting against Spanish rulers. Independence Day is a much more important holiday in Mexico. For some reason, Cinco de Mayo is celebrated more in the United States of America, by Mexicans and Americans alike, than it is in Mexico. One theory for why it is more popular in the USA is that at one time, it was celebrated in all of Mexico and by Mexicans living in former Mexican areas such as Texas and California. It was ignored in Mexico after a while but still celebrated in the north of the border, which never got out of the habit of remembering the famous battle. In Puebla and in many American cities with large Mexican populations, there are parades, dancing and festivals. Traditional Mexican food is often served or sold. Mariachi (街头音乐) bands fill town squares, and a lot of beers are served. It’s a fun holiday, really more about celebrating the Mexican way of life than about remembering the battle which happened 157 years ago. In the USA, schoolchildren decorate their classrooms and try their hand at cooking some basic Mexican food. All over the world, Mexican restaurants bring in mariachi bands and offer specials for what’s almost certain to be a packed house. 32．(2.5分)Why do more Americans celebrate Cinco de Mayo? A．Some American areas once belonged to Mexico. B．Americans are influenced by Mexican culture. C．Mexicans don’t form the habit of having a holiday. D．Many Mexicans value Independence Day. 33．(2.5分)How can schoolchildren celebrate Cinco de Mayo? A．By performing music at restaurants. B．By trying making some Mexican food. C．By turning the classroom into a battlefield. D．By offering special gifts to their teachers. 34．(2.5分)By celebrating Cinco de Mayo, people mainly show ________. A．where the history is honored most B．what special customs they have C．how Mexicans gained independence D．who should be remembered forever 35．(2.5分)According to the passage, people celebrate Cinco de Mayo because Mexicans ________. A．paid off their war debts B．succeeded in defending Mexico City C．gained independence from Spanish D．defeated the French army in Puebla 【答案】32．A 33．B 34．B 35．D 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了常常被庆祝的Cinco de Mayo（五月五日节）的历史由来，受到更多欢迎的原因，以及人们庆祝这个节日的方式。 【详解】32．细节理解题。根据第三段中“One theory for why it is more popular in the USA is that at one time, it was celebrated in all of Mexico and by Mexicans living in former Mexican areas such as Texas and California. (为什么它在美国更受欢迎的一个理论是，有一段时间，整个墨西哥以及生活在德克萨斯州和加利福尼亚州等前墨西哥地区的墨西哥人都会庆祝这个节日。)”可知，更多的美国人庆祝Cinco de Mayo是因为美国的德克萨斯州和加利福尼亚州等地区之前属于墨西哥，那里的墨西哥人会庆祝这个节日，即因为一些美国地区曾经属于墨西哥。故选A项。 33．细节理解题。根据最后一段中“In the USA, schoolchildren decorate their classrooms and try their hand at cooking some basic Mexican food. (在美国，学生们装饰他们的教室，并尝试自己做一些基本的墨西哥食物。)”可知，学生们可以通过尝试做一些墨西哥食物来庆祝这个节日。故选B项。 34．细节理解题。根据最后一段中“It’s a fun holiday, really more about celebrating the Mexican way of life than about remembering the battle which happened 157 years ago. (这是一个有趣的节日，更多的是庆祝墨西哥人的生活方式，而不是纪念157年前发生的那场战争。)”可知，人们在这个节日更多的是庆祝墨西哥人的生活方式，也就是展示他们特殊的风俗习惯。故选B项。 35．细节理解题。根据第二段中“Literally (根据字面意思) “Fifth of May”, Cinco de Mayo is a Mexican holiday celebrating the Battle of Puebla, which took place on May 5, 1862. (字面意思是“五月五日”，Cinco de Mayo是墨西哥的节日，庆祝1862年5月5日发生的普埃布拉战役。)”和“The French army reached Puebla, where the Mexicans won a huge victory. The victory was short­lived, as the French army regrouped and continued, and eventually took Mexico City, but the joy of an unlikely victory against France is remembered every May fifth. (法国军队到达了普埃布拉，墨西哥人在那里取得了巨大的胜利。这场胜利是短暂的，因为法国军队重新集结并继续前进，最终占领了墨西哥城，但每年的5月5日，人们都会记住这场对法国不太可能的胜利带来的喜悦。)”可知，人们庆祝这个节日是因为墨西哥人曾在历史上的这一天在普埃布拉击败了法国军队。故选D项。 （本题12.5分）World Savings Day is a holiday. 36(2.5分) This holiday encourages everyone to think about the importance of starting a savings account. It wants everyone to realize that they should have at least 3-6 months’ worth of expenses (开支) in their savings account. People should celebrate World Savings Day and make sure their financial (财务的) house is in good order. If people spend $2,000 a month, they’ll need to have anywhere from $6,000 to $12,000 in savings. 37(2.5分) So people are more able to deal with any possible, sudden situation that needs much money. 38(2.5分) World Savings Day was first imagined as International Savings Day and it was organized by the First International Savings Bank Congress that was held in Milan, Italy in 1924. The purpose of them creating this holiday was to encourage people not to keep their money at home but to place it in banks. 39(2.5分) After the end of WWII, economies (经济) were being rebuilt and people had more money in their pockets. As a result, this holiday became popular as World Savings Day. This holiday can be celebrated in several ways. First, a person can find out how much he needs to spend in a certain period and make a plan to save money every week. They can think of this as paying themselves first before spending money on things that are not necessary. Besides, people can spread the news about saving online. 40(2.5分) A．Why was this holiday created? B．So, this holiday can be helpful. C．How did this holiday come into being? D．It is celebrated on the 31st of October each year. E．Surely, it’s even better to have more savings than that. F．This is also a good day for people to teach their kids about saving. G．After all, it was safer to put money in banks than placing it under the bed. 【答案】36．D 37．E 38．C 39．G 40．F 【导语】文章主要介绍世界储蓄日，依次说明其日期、设立意义、储蓄存款的标准、起源发展以及人们庆祝该节日的多种方式。 【详解】36．根据前文“World Savings Day is a holiday.(世界储蓄日是一个节日。)”可知前文引出世界储蓄日这一节日；空后“This holiday encourages everyone to think about the importance of starting a savings account.(这个节日鼓励每个人思考开设储蓄账户的重要性。)”介绍节日作用；故推知：空处补充节日基础信息，起到衔接作用；选项D“It is celebrated on the 31st of October each year.(人们每年10月31日庆祝它。)”符合语境。 37．根据前文“If people spend $2, 000 a month, they’ll need to have anywhere from $6,000 to $12,000 in savings.(如果人们每月花销2000美元，就需要储备6000至12000美元存款。)”可知前文给出最低储蓄金额标准；空后“So people are more able to deal with any possible, sudden situation that needs much money.(这样人们就能更好应对任何需要大额资金的突发状况。)”说明储蓄充足的好处；故推知：空处递进表达存款越多越好；选项E“Surely, it’s even better to have more savings than that.(当然，存款比这个数额更多会更好。)”逻辑通顺。 38．根据后文“World Savings Day was first imagined as International Savings Day and it was organized by the First International Savings Bank Congress that was held in Milan, Italy in 1924.(世界储蓄日最初名为国际储蓄日，由1924年在意大利米兰举办的第一届国际储蓄银行大会发起设立。)”可知后文完整讲述节日的由来；此处为本段段首句，需要设问引出起源话题；选项C“How did this holiday come into being?(这个节日是如何产生的？)”总领整段内容。 39．根据前文“The purpose of them creating this holiday was to encourage people not to keep their money at home but to place it in banks.(他们设立这个节日的目的是鼓励人们不要把钱存放在家中，而是存入银行。)”可知前文提倡把钱存入银行；故推知：空处解释把钱存入银行的优势；选项G“After all, it was safer to put money in banks than placing it under the bed.(毕竟，把钱存入银行比藏在床底下更安全。)”承接上文观点。 40．根据前文“This holiday can be celebrated in several ways. First, a person can find out how much he needs to spend in a certain period and make a plan to save money every week.(人们有多种方式庆祝这个节日。首先，人们可以算出一段时期的总开销，制定每周存钱计划。)”以及“Besides, people can spread the news about saving online.(此外，人们可以在网上宣传储蓄相关理念。)”可知前文列举了两种庆祝方式；故推知：空处补充另一种庆祝形式；选项F“This is also a good day for people to teach their kids about saving.(这也是家长教导孩子储蓄知识的好日子。)” 契合段落主旨。 三、完形填空 （本题15分）Team Fireball, a mother-son racing duo (二人组), has a goal to complete half marathons in all 50 states.

The streets were dotted with fresh green bamboo leaves, and the air was filled with the faint fragrance of mugwort (艾蒿), announcing the arrival of the traditional festival. Seventeen-year-old Ethan, who had lived in the United States with his parents since childhood, was sent back to his hometown to spend the festival with his grandfather. Having grown up immersed in Western culture, Ethan held a strong sense of indifference towards traditional Chinese festivals. He regarded the Dragon Boat Festival as nothing but an old, outdated custom, far less attractive than Western carnivals and parties. All he wanted to do was stay in his room, scrolling through social media or playing online games, showing no interest in the festive atmosphere around him. Grandfather was a well-known local inheritor of traditional zongzi-making skills, and he had been eagerly looking forward to Ethan’s return, hoping to pass on the family craft and help his grandson connect with his cultural roots. He specially picked fresh bamboo leaves, prepared high-quality glutinous rice, sweet red beans and salty egg yolks, and invited Ethan to make zongzi with him. However, Ethan frowned and refused rudely without a second thought. He complained that making zongzi was tedious (冗长的) and time-consuming, and couldn’t understand why people still stuck to such old customs. Hearing his words, Grandfather’s smile faded away, and a deep sense of disappointment crossed his wrinkled face. He silently carried the ingredients to the courtyard, sitting alone on the stone bench, slowly folding the bamboo leaves. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Paragraph 1: Watching Grandfather’s bent back in the courtyard, Ethan was seized with a complicated mixture of guilt and hesitation. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: As the steaming zongzi were taken out, the rich fragrance filled the whole courtyard, touching Ethan’s heart deeply. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】Paragraph 1 Watching Grandfather’s bent back in the courtyard, Ethan was seized with a complicated mixture of guilt and hesitation. He stepped out of the room slowly, his eyes falling on Grandfather’s rough but deft hands folding bamboo leaves neatly. Sensing his approach, Grandfather looked up with a gentle smile, patiently demonstrating every step without urging. Ethan sat down quietly, imitating his movements clumsily. Despite Ethan's failing several times, Grandfather guided him with endless patience, telling him the stories of Qu Yuan behind the festival while they worked. Gradually, Ethan’s restlessness faded away, and he became fully absorbed in the delicate process. Paragraph 2 As the steaming zongzi were taken out, the rich fragrance filled the whole courtyard, touching Ethan’s heart deeply. He took a bite of the warm zongzi, tasting not only the sweet filling but also the love of family and the weight of tradition. For the first time, he truly understood that the Dragon Boat Festival was far more than a simple festival — it carried the long history of China and the precious cultural roots of his family. A strong sense of cultural pride surged through him, and he completely let go of his previous prejudice. That summer, Ethan truly found his cultural identity and learned to cherish the precious traditions of his motherland. 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了在端午节即将来临之际，自幼随父母生活在美国的 17 岁少年伊桑，被送回中国南方古镇的家乡与祖父共度佳节。伊桑深受西方文化影响，对中国传统节日漠不关心，认为端午节老旧过时。祖父作为当地知名的粽子制作技艺传承人，希望伊桑能传承这一技艺，却遭到伊桑的拒绝，祖父因此感到失望。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容可知，第一段可描写伊桑内心充满愧疚和犹豫，在祖父引导下，伊桑逐渐投入到包粽子的过程中。 ②由第二段首句内容可知，第二段可描写伊桑品尝粽子，感受到其中蕴含的亲情与传统的重量，找到了自己的文化身份，学会珍惜祖国的传统。 2.续写线索：伊桑内心纠结——走出房间——祖父示范——伊桑模仿——逐渐投入——品尝粽子——领悟意义—— 放下偏见——找到身份——珍惜传统 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①走出：step out /walk out ②告诉：tell/inform 情绪类 ①犹豫：hesitation/indecision ②偏见：prejudice/bias 【点睛】【高分句型 1】He stepped out of the room slowly, his eyes falling on Grandfather’s rough but deft hands folding bamboo leaves neatly.（运用了独立主格结构 his eyes falling on...） 【高分句型 2】For the first time, he truly understood that the Dragon Boat Festival was far more than a simple festival — it carried the long history of China and the precious cultural roots of his family.（运用了 that 引导的宾语从句） 试卷第1页，共3页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 2 / 2 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
