A
Background
The World Health Organization(WHO) has recently raised a serious alarm about a disease called chikungunya (基孔肯雅热). It is spreading fast and could become a big problem worldwide.
What is Chikungunya?
Chikungunya is a sickness spread by mosquitoes (蚊子). It does not spread from person to person. When an infected (被感染的) mosquito bites (咬) you, it can make you sick. Symptoms (症状) usually appear 3—7 days later and include:
High fever Headaches and
(over 39C) tiredness
A red rash (皮疹) Very bad joint pain
on the skin (especially in hands and feet)
These problems can last for weeks or even months. While most people get better, it can be very serious, especially for older people or those already sick.
How does it spread?
The mosquito spreading this disease most often is the tiger mosquito. It loves warm weather and water. Sadly, as our planet gets warmer, this mosquito is moving to new places. Right now, there are big outbreaks happening on islands in the Indian Ocean and in parts of Asia and Africa .Travelers can bring it to new areas like Europe.
(Right- click for more information)
How to protect yourself
Chikungunya is tricky (棘手的) because its symptoms look similar to other diseases,which makes it difficult for doctors to know for sure what you have. The best way to fight chikungunya is to stop mosquitoes from biting you. Here's what you can do:
◆Use mosquito repellant (防虫剂) on your skin and clothes. Choose products with DEET or picaridin (派卡瑞丁).
◆Wear long shirts and pants, especially in the morning and evening. Light-colored clothes help too!
◆Empty water from things like flower pots or old tires around your house every week, because mosquitoes like laying their eggs (产卵) in standing water.
◆Use a mosquito net (蚊帐) while sleeping if needed.
46. What mainly spreads chikungunya to people?
A. Dirty water. B. Infected persons. C. Mosquito bites. D. High temperature.
47. Which symptom is NOT mentioned for chikungunya?
A. High fever. B. Coughing. C. Joint pain. D. Feeling very tired.
48. What can we learn about the disease from the text?
A. It only appears in Europe. B. Travelers don’t spread it.
C. Mosquitoes like rainy days and water. D. It may spread wider as the world gets warmer.
49. Why should people empty water from flower pots weekly?
A. To save water for mosquitoes B. To stop mosquitoes from laying eggs.
C. To make the garden look tidy. D. To test if water is clean.
50. Where is this text most probably from?
A. A news report on TV. B. A travel guide book.
C. A health website. D. A health magazine.
B
A small Italian island has a big problem, and it needs your help.
The island of Alicudi is to the north of Sicily. There are 600 goats on Alicudi. That’s six times the number of people who live on the island. Now it’s looking for people to adopt (收养) the goats on the island. But if you want one, you’ll have to catch it yourself!
The island’s mayor, Riccardo Gullo, said if you have a boat to get a goat off the island, and if you can catch one, you can keep it!
The number of goats on Alicudi has increased significantly in the last few years, and they’ve been causing problems. People have said the animals have been breaking walls, ___▲___ and even paying unwelcome visits to people's homes.
No one owns the goats, which are thought to have been brought to the island by a farmer 20 years ago. Tourists like to take pictures with the animals, and Gullo does want some of the goats to stay for that reason--but the current number is just too large.
To solve the problem, Mayor Riccardo Gullo created an “adopt a goat” program open to just about anyone who will remove some goats from the island. The program allows people to apply (申请) for up to 50 goats, so long as they submit (提交) their application and pay $17. If approved, applicants will have 15 days to catch the goats and take them home. Gullo has said he will continue to extend the program until all but about 100 goats are gone.
He said he’d prefer people to take the goats and look after them rather than eat them. But he also said he won’t be checking the plans of anyone who wants to take any of the animals away.
51. What problem does the island of Alicudi face?
A. The island is too far away from Sicily.
B. There are too many goats on the island.
C. No one loves to keep goats on the island.
D. There are no boats to take goats off the island.
52. Which of the following can be the best to put into the blank?
A. sleeping quietly in the forests B. drinking water from the rivers
C. eating vegetables in the gardens D. keeping away from the tourists
53. Gullo wants to keep some goats on the island to_________.
A. attract tourists to get there
B. make money by selling them
C. let people come to the island to eat mutton
D. remember the farmer who brought goats to the island
54. What should you do if you want to adopt five goats?
①Pay$17. ②Catch them within 15 days. ③ Send an email to Gullo himself.
④ Offer your plan to Gullo on time. ⑤ Submit your application.
A. ①②③ B. ②③④
C. ①②⑤ D. ③④⑤
55. What can we learn from the passage?
A. It’s interesting to live on a small island.
B. It’s impossible to know the secret of nature.
C. It’s dangerous to keep animals around our houses.
D. It’s important to keep the ecological (生态的) balance.
C
This year marks the 80th anniversary of the victory of the Chinese People’s War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression and the World Anti-Fascist War. Many works about this history are being shown, like films, plays and dances. Among them, the movie Dead To Rights (南京照相馆) has caught a lot of attention.
Directed by Shen Ao, the film is based on real photos that show the terrible things Japanese soldiers did during the Nanjing Massacre (大屠杀). The story takes place when Japanese soldiers take control of Nanjing. To stay alive, a group of Chinese people hides inside a photo studio.
To survive, they have to help a Japanese army photographer develop his pictures. But while doing this, they discover something shocking. The photo films contain (包含) clear proof (证据) of the awful crimes Japanese soldiers committed (犯罪) all over the city. The group decides they must let the world know the truth. So they secretly keep the films and risk their lives to get them out safely.
The story in the movie is connected to a real person. In 1938, a 15-year-old boy named Luo Jin worked in Huadong Photo Studio in Nanjing. Brave and clever, he secretly made over 30 copies of photos showing Japanese crimes. He put 16 photos into a book and drew a red heart with blood and the Chinese word “Chi” (which means “shame”) on the cover. Later, a young man named Wu Xuan kept the book safe. After eight years, the photos became strong proof of the crimes and were shown to the world.
Director Shen Ao said the reason he made the film is that few people know how these important photos were saved. Dead To Rights is not only a movie, but also helps us remember painful history so that we work harder to make our country stronger.
56. The text talks about the 80th year of two victories. When did they happen?
A. 1935 B. 1945 C. 1955 D. 1965
57. What is the movie Dead To Rights mainly about?
A. A love story in Nanjing. B. A Japanese photographer’s life.
C. Making films during a war. D. Saving photo films of Japanese crimes.
58. Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?
A. The story happened before Nanjing was under control by the Japanese soldiers.
B. The photos the Chinese people kept contain proof of the awful crimes Japanese soldiers committed all over the country
C. The group of Chinese people had to help a Japanese army photographer develop his pictures to stay alive.
D. Wu Xuan put 16 photos into a book and showed them to the world.
59. What did Luo Jin do?
A. He directed a movie B. He kept a book safe for eight years
C. He made copies of Japanese crime photos D. He worked in a photo studio in 1930
60. Which is NOT a purpose of the film ?
A. To show how the truth was discovered. B. To help people remember painful history.
C. To win international prizes. D. To encourage building a stronger country.
D
①Free time is rare in modern life. Just look around you. Aren’t the adults all busy with something? But why is that?
②Imagine yourself as a busy office worker. Now, you have a set of technology (技术). It could make every part of your job easier. What would you do with all that extra time? Well, you would probably work the same amount (数量) of time as before, or even more. You doubt about this, don’t you? But in fact, something similar happened in the U.S. in the 20th century — not in factories or offices, but in homes.
③American homes in the early 1900s weren’t much different from those in the 1500s. There was no electricity (电). Most families had no water pipes. Family members had to carry every drop of water in and out of the house.
④Over the following years, many new appliances (家用电器) were made to save people’s time. Modern toilets, fridges and washing machines made their way into more and more homes. However, none of them saved hours of work. In the 1920s, full-time housewives spent 51 hours a week doing housework. In the 1960s, they were working 53 hours.
⑤This may seem surprising, but the reasons are simple. Better technology leads to higher expectations (预期), and higher expectations create more work. For example, before modern technology, most people washed their clothes only twice a year. Bad smell was unavoidable. Washing machines changed that. People began washing their clothes more often. And because it was easier to wash the clothes, people bought more shirts and dresses. As a result, housewives found themselves washing and drying more clothes.
⑥Technology has cut down the time it takes to cook a meal or wash a shirt. But it has also saved time for other housework, especially childcare. Since the 1980s, American parents have nearly doubled the amount of time they spend raising, teaching and driving their kids around town.
⑦Most of us can make our lives easier with modern technology. But instead of enjoying more rest time, we often find ourselves working more towards a better life. Without big changes in society’s expectations, people will take on more work and never feel like enough.
61. To support his ideas, the writer mostly discussed American ________ in the 20th century.
A. factory life B. office life C. school life D. home life
62. The underlined word “that” in Paragraph 5 refers to (指) “________”.
A. people seldom washing their clothes B. people buying more shirts and dresses
C. people spending much time washing clothes D. housewives washing all of the family’s clothes
63. How has the time American parents spend on childcare changed since the 1980s?
A. It has dropped. B. It has nearly doubled.
C. It has slightly risen. D. It has stayed about the same.
64. Which of the following shows the structure of this passage?
A. ①/②/③④⑤⑥/⑦ B. ①/②③④⑤/⑥/⑦
C. ①②③④/⑤⑥/⑦ D. ①②③/④⑤⑥/⑦
65. What’s the best title of this article?
A. More technology, less work! B. More technology, less work?
C. The technology behind less work D. The technology behind more work

A Special Show Held in San Francisco
A special show, Qi Baishi: Inspiration in Ink (水墨灵韵), brings the beauty of Chinese ink art to Americans. Held at San Francisco’s Asian Art Museum on Dec 12, 2024, the show displays nearly 50 paintings and letters by Qi Baishi (1864-1957), one of China’s most famous 20th-century painters. It runs until April 9, 2025 and will later go to Boston.
Qi is best known for painting nature’s small wonders-shrimps (虾), birds, chickens and fish. His works show the simple joy of life, whether it’s a tiny insect, or an opening flower. His paintings catch millions of art fans’ eyes by bringing back memories of the countryside and their hometowns. “His works are special and he mostly praised the energy of nature and life’s strength through his art,” says Du Yuxin from the Beijing Fine Art Academy.
Born into a village in Hunan, Qi started as a carpenter (木匠). It was really a hard situation then. But just like those small lives he painted, their strong wish for life pushed him to keep going. He taught himself painting and later moved to Beijing to learn art. “He was sincere and down-to-earth, painting what he saw and felt,” Du explains. Finally, he became really good at ink painting, bringing traditional skills and his own style together.
The show isn’t just about looking at art. One popular part is Letters from Baishi. Hundreds of envelopes (信封) hang in the air. Inside, there is a letter and a copy of Qi’s artworks. Visitors can take one as a souvenir (纪念品). Next to it is the “Time-travel Postbox,” where people can write letters to Qi. Visitor Smith wrote, “Thank you for creating your art. It helps me remember this is where we come from.”
Qi’s works were first shown in San Francisco in 1960, and now this new show continues to bridge cultures and gets people around the world to have a better understanding of Chinese art.

七、综合填空。 (共10空; 每空不限一词; 每空1.5分, 满分15分)

White Dew usually ____87____ (arrive) around September 7th. When it comes, hot summer days are gone, and cool autumn starts to wrap the world. As the name tells us, we can often see dew on grass and tree leaves in the morning. At night, the air gets cold, so the wet part in the air turns into small water drops. ____88____ the sun rises, these drops look white, which is why people call this term “White Dew.”
During White Dew, there are many interesting customs. In northern China, farmers are busy ____89____ (harvest) crops like corn and rice.

二、单项选择。 从下列每题所给的选项中, 选择一个最佳答案。(共10小题,每小题1分;满分10分)
21. —How long will it be ________ the Stock (股票) Market returns to normal?
—It’s hard to say, but an expert on Wall Street believe A-share prices can get to 6000 in 18 months.
A. before B. when C. until D. that
【答案】A
【解析】
【详解】句意:——股票市场要过多久才能恢复正常?——很难说,但华尔街的一位专家相信,A股价格在18个月内可以涨到6000点。
考查连词辨析。before在……之前,多久才……;when当……时;until直到……;that引导名词性从句时无具体含义,只起连接作用,而且在从句中也不作任何句子成分。根据“It’s hard to say, but an expert on Wall Street believe A-share prices can get to 6000 in 18 months.”及语境可知,空处是在询问股票市场要过多久才能恢复正常,所以应该用before引导时间状语从句。故选A。
22. —All right. I’ll take it. But I tell you, it is the last time I will ________ this kind of work.
—Come on, Buddy! Don’t be so serious.
A. take off B. take on C. take out D. take in
【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】句意:——好吧。我接下了。但我告诉你,这是我最后一次承担这种工作了。——得了吧,伙计!别这么严肃。
take off脱下/起飞;take on承担/呈现;take out取出/带出去;take in吸收/欺骗。根据语境“I’ll take it”(我接下了)以及说话者抱怨这是“last time”(最后一次)可知,此处指接受或承担某项工作任务,应用take on。
23. —Do you agree that the girl called Rika is the most suitable person to give the speech?
—I can’t agree more. Her smiling eyes always look ________ shining stars.
A. as well as B. as much as C. as long as D. as good as
【答案】D
【解析】
【详解】句意:——你同意那个叫丽卡的女孩是最适合做演讲的人吗? ——我完全同意。她微笑的眼睛总是像闪亮的星星一样美丽。
考查连词辨析。as well as和……一样好,修饰副词;as much as和……一样多;as long as只要;as good as和……一样好,修饰名词。根据“Her smiling eyes always look...shining stars.”可知,这里是把小女孩微笑的眼睛和闪亮的星星进行比较,修饰名词短语。故选D。
24. —Do you know if Simon ________ the writing competition next week?
—He will if his project about nature ________.
A. enters; finishes B. enters; is finished C. will enter; is finished D. will enter; finishes
【答案】C
【解析】
【详解】句意:——你知道西蒙下周是否会参加写作比赛吗?——如果他关于自然的项目完成了,他会的。
考查宾语从句和条件状语从句。分析句子可知,填空一处为if引导的宾语从句,主句为一般现在时,遵循主现从不限的原则,故从句时态应根据“next week”用一般将来时,结构为will + 动词原形;填空二处为if引导的条件状语从句,遵循主将从现的原则,故填空处应为一般现在时,且主语“project”与谓语动词“finish”存在逻辑上的动宾关系,应为一般现在时的被动语态,构成为be + 动词过去分词,主语“project”为单数,be动词应用is。故选C。
25. —Are you going to have a picnic with me tomorrow?
—I’m not sure. It ________ weather. The school notice ________ it will be held next week if it rains tomorrow.
A. depends on; talks B. depends on; says C. divides into; talks D. divides into; says
【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】句意:——你明天打算和我一起去野餐吗?——我不确定。这取决于天气。学校通知说如果明天下雨,下周举行。
考查动词短语和动词辨析。depend on取决于;divide into分成;talk交谈;say说。根据“It…weather.”,结合选项可知,此处指的是这取决于天气,主语是It,所以第一空填depends on;又根据分析句子“The school notice…it will be held next week if it rains tomorrow.”,结合选项可知,此处指的是学校通知说,主语是The school notice,所以第二空填第三人称单数says,意为“说”符合语境。故选B。
26. In which situation would we use scanning as the best reading method?
A. Enjoying a poem to feel its beauty and rhythm (节奏).
B. Looking for a friend’s name in a long list of winners.
C. Trying to understand the main lessons of a story.
D. Learning how to make a cake from a recipe book (烹饪书).
【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】句意:在哪种情况下,我们使用扫读作为最佳阅读方法?
Enjoying a poem to feel its beauty and rhythm“欣赏诗歌感受它的美感与节奏”;Looking for a friend’s name in a long list of winners“在长长的获奖名单中寻找朋友的名字”;Trying to understand the main lessons of a story“努力理解故事的主要寓意”;Learning how to make a cake from a recipe book“从烹饪书中学习如何制作蛋糕”。scanning意为扫读,指快速查找特定信息,根据扫读的阅读特点,在获奖名单中寻找人名是寻找特定信息,符合扫读的使用场景。
27. —Believe it or not, the children’s song, Dig dig a hole is very popular________ among kids ________ among adults now.
—I agree, especially adults, it can ________ their childhood.
A. not only; but also; remind them of B. both; and; remind of them
C. neither; nor; remind them of D. either; or; remind of them
【答案】A
【解析】
【详解】句意:——不管你信不信,这首儿歌《挖洞》现在不仅在孩子们中很受欢迎,在成年人中也很受欢迎。——我同意,尤其是成年人,它可以让他们想起自己的童年。
考查并列连词辨析和动词短语。not only...but also...“不仅……而且……”;both...and...“……和……都”;neither...nor...“既不……也不……”;either...or...“……或……”,根据“the children’s song, Dig dig a hole is very popular”可知,此处指儿歌《挖洞》现在不仅在孩子们中很受欢迎,在成年人中也很受欢迎;第二空,动词短语remind sb. of sth.“使某人想起某事”。故选A。
28. —How do you like the film Dead to Rights (南京照相馆)?
—________, a large number of audiences were greatly impressed by it.
A. Come on B. Don’t mention it
C. I can’t agree more D. That couldn’t have been better
【答案】D
【解析】
【详解】句意:——你觉得电影《南京照相馆》怎么样?——再好不过了,大量观众对它印象非常深刻。
Come on加油;得了吧;Don’t mention it不用谢;别客气;I can’t agree more我完全赞同;That couldn’t have been better那再好不过了。问句“How do you like the film?”询问对电影的评价,D项用否定词与比较级连用表示最高程度的赞美,即这部电影好得不能再好,与后句“a large number of audiences were greatly impressed by it”大量观众印象深刻的评价相呼应;C项用于赞同对方已经陈述的观点,而此处问句只是询问评价,对方并未先发表看法;B项用于回应感谢;A项用于鼓励或催促。故选D。
29. —Some students don’t pay attention in class. They choose “lying flat”.
—They will regret it for sure! One ________ learn too much knowledge.
A. should B. shouldn’t C. can’t D. must
【答案】C
【解析】
【详解】句意:——有些学生上课不专心。他们选择“躺平”。——他们肯定会后悔的!一个人学再多知识也不为过。
考查动词辨析。should应该;shouldn’t不应该;can’t不能;must必须。根据“They will regret it for sure!”可知,选择“躺平”的学生最终会后悔是因为学再多知识也不为过,用can’t do sth too…表示“无论做某事也不为过”。故选C。
30. —Do you know ________.
—Yes, I do. To take some photos on the visit to the countryside.
A. why Bob borrowed his father’s camera B. when Bob borrowed his father’s camera
C. why did Bob borrow his father’s camera D. when did Bob borrow his father’s camera
【答案】A
【解析】
【详解】句意:——你知道汤姆为什么借用他父亲的相机吗?——是的,我知道。为了去乡下游玩时拍些照片。
考查宾语从句。宾语从句用陈述语序,排除C和D;根据“To take some photos on the visit to the countryside.”可知,询问为什么借相机,用why引导从句。故选A。
三.完形填空。 (共15小题;每小题1分, 满分15分)

四、阅读理解。 阅读下列短文, 根据短文内容选择最佳答案。(共20小题;每小题2分, 满分40分)
A
Background
The World Health Organization(WHO) has recently raised a serious alarm about a disease called chikungunya (基孔肯雅热). It is spreading fast and could become a big problem worldwide.
What is Chikungunya?
Chikungunya is a sickness spread by mosquitoes (蚊子). It does not spread from person to person. When an infected (被感染的) mosquito bites (咬) you, it can make you sick. Symptoms (症状) usually appear 3—7 days later and include:
High fever Headaches and
(over 39C) tiredness
A red rash (皮疹) Very bad joint pain
on the skin (especially in hands and feet)
These problems can last for weeks or even months. While most people get better, it can be very serious, especially for older people or those already sick.
How does it spread?
The mosquito spreading this disease most often is the tiger mosquito. It loves warm weather and water. Sadly, as our planet gets warmer, this mosquito is moving to new places. Right now, there are big outbreaks happening on islands in the Indian Ocean and in parts of Asia and Africa .Travelers can bring it to new areas like Europe.
(Right- click for more information)
How to protect yourself
Chikungunya is tricky (棘手的) because its symptoms look similar to other diseases,which makes it difficult for doctors to know for sure what you have. The best way to fight chikungunya is to stop mosquitoes from biting you. Here's what you can do:
◆Use mosquito repellant (防虫剂) on your skin and clothes. Choose products with DEET or picaridin (派卡瑞丁).
◆Wear long shirts and pants, especially in the morning and evening. Light-colored clothes help too!
◆Empty water from things like flower pots or old tires around your house every week, because mosquitoes like laying their eggs (产卵) in standing water.
◆Use a mosquito net (蚊帐) while sleeping if needed.
46. What mainly spreads chikungunya to people?
A. Dirty water. B. Infected persons. C. Mosquito bites. D. High temperature.
47. Which symptom is NOT mentioned for chikungunya?
A. High fever. B. Coughing. C. Joint pain. D. Feeling very tired.
48. What can we learn about the disease from the text?
A. It only appears in Europe. B. Travelers don’t spread it.
C. Mosquitoes like rainy days and water. D. It may spread wider as the world gets warmer.
49. Why should people empty water from flower pots weekly?
A. To save water for mosquitoes B. To stop mosquitoes from laying eggs.
C. To make the garden look tidy. D. To test if water is clean.
50. Where is this text most probably from?
A. A news report on TV. B. A travel guide book.
C. A health website. D. A health magazine.
【答案】46. C 47. B 48. D 49. B 50. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是说明文,围绕世界卫生组织发出警报的基孔肯雅热展开健康科普,分别介绍了该疾病的定义与症状、传播途径,以及日常自我防护的具体方法,帮助读者认识疾病并掌握防护方式。
【46题详解】
根据文章“What is Chikungunya?”段落中“Chikungunya is a sickness spread by mosquitoes. When an infected mosquito bites you, it can make you sick.”可知,基孔肯雅热主要通过蚊子叮咬传播给人类。
【47题详解】
根据文章“What is Chikungunya?”段落中“Symptoms usually appear 3—7 days later and include: High fever (over 39C)、Headaches and tiredness、A red rash on the skin、Very bad joint pain (especially in hands and feet)”可知,咳嗽并非文中提及的基孔肯雅热的症状。
【48题详解】
根据文章“How does it spread?”段落中“Sadly, as our planet gets warmer, this mosquito is moving to new places.”可推知,随着全球气候变暖,传播该疾病的蚊子会向新区域扩散,因此这种疾病可能会传播得更广。
【49题详解】
根据文章“How to protect yourself”段落中“Empty water from things like flower pots or old tires around your house every week, because mosquitoes like laying their eggs in standing water.”可知,每周清空花盆里的水是为了阻止蚊子在积水中产卵。

B
A small Italian island has a big problem, and it needs your help.
The island of Alicudi is to the north of Sicily. There are 600 goats on Alicudi. That’s six times the number of people who live on the island. Now it’s looking for people to adopt (收养) the goats on the island. But if you want one, you’ll have to catch it yourself!
The island’s mayor, Riccardo Gullo, said if you have a boat to get a goat off the island, and if you can catch one, you can keep it!
The number of goats on Alicudi has increased significantly in the last few years, and they’ve been causing problems. People have said the animals have been breaking walls, ___▲___ and even paying unwelcome visits to people's homes.
No one owns the goats, which are thought to have been brought to the island by a farmer 20 years ago. Tourists like to take pictures with the animals, and Gullo does want some of the goats to stay for that reason--but the current number is just too large.
To solve the problem, Mayor Riccardo Gullo created an “adopt a goat” program open to just about anyone who will remove some goats from the island. The program allows people to apply (申请) for up to 50 goats, so long as they submit (提交) their application and pay $17. If approved, applicants will have 15 days to catch the goats and take them home. Gullo has said he will continue to extend the program until all but about 100 goats are gone.
He said he’d prefer people to take the goats and look after them rather than eat them. But he also said he won’t be checking the plans of anyone who wants to take any of the animals away.
51. What problem does the island of Alicudi face?
A. The island is too far away from Sicily.
B. There are too many goats on the island.
C. No one loves to keep goats on the island.
D. There are no boats to take goats off the island.
52. Which of the following can be the best to put into the blank?
A. sleeping quietly in the forests B. drinking water from the rivers
C. eating vegetables in the gardens D. keeping away from the tourists
53. Gullo wants to keep some goats on the island to_________.
A. attract tourists to get there
B. make money by selling them
C. let people come to the island to eat mutton

【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了意大利阿利库迪岛因山羊数量过多引发生活问题,市长推出“收养山羊”计划以减少数量,旨在维持岛屿生态平衡。
【51题详解】
第二段提到“There are 600 goats on Alicudi. That’s six times the number of people who live on the island.”及第四段“The number of goats on Alicudi...been causing problems.”,可知,岛上山羊数量远超人口数量且引发了问题,即山羊太多。
【52题详解】
第四段表明“People have said the animals...unwelcome visits to people’s homes.”,可知,空缺处应与“破坏墙壁”和“不受欢迎的拜访”一样,属于山羊造成的负面干扰行为,“eating vegetables in the gardens”符合这一逻辑。
【53题详解】
第五段指出“Tourists like to take pictures with...some of the goats to stay for that reason”,可知,市长希望保留部分山羊是为了满足游客拍照的需求,从而吸引游客。
【54题详解】
第六段说明“so long as they submit their application and pay $17. If approved, applicants will have 15 days to catch the goats”,可知,收养山羊需要提交申请、支付17美元并在15天内捕捉,对应步骤①②⑤。
【55题详解】
通读全文,第四段表明“The number of goats on Alicudi has increased significantly... causing problems”及第六段提到“Gullo has said he will continue to extend the program until all but about 100 goats are gone.”,可知,文章通过讲述控制山羊数量的故事,强调了维持生态平衡的重要性。

This year marks the 80th anniversary of the victory of the Chinese People’s War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression and the World Anti-Fascist War. Many works about this history are being shown, like films, plays and dances. Among them, the movie Dead To Rights (南京照相馆) has caught a lot of attention.
Directed by Shen Ao, the film is based on real photos that show the terrible things Japanese soldiers did during the Nanjing Massacre (大屠杀). The story takes place when Japanese soldiers take control of Nanjing. To stay alive, a group of Chinese people hides inside a photo studio.
To survive, they have to help a Japanese army photographer develop his pictures. But while doing this, they discover something shocking. The photo films contain (包含) clear proof (证据) of the awful crimes Japanese soldiers committed (犯罪) all over the city. The group decides they must let the world know the truth. So they secretly keep the films and risk their lives to get them out safely.
The story in the movie is connected to a real person. In 1938, a 15-year-old boy named Luo Jin worked in Huadong Photo Studio in Nanjing. Brave and clever, he secretly made over 30 copies of photos showing Japanese crimes. He put 16 photos into a book and drew a red heart with blood and the Chinese word “Chi” (which means “shame”) on the cover. Later, a young man named Wu Xuan kept the book safe. After eight years, the photos became strong proof of the crimes and were shown to the world.
Director Shen Ao said the reason he made the film is that few people know how these important photos were saved. Dead To Rights is not only a movie, but also helps us remember painful history so that we work harder to make our country stronger.
56. The text talks about the 80th year of two victories. When did they happen?
A. 1935 B. 1945 C. 1955 D. 1965

D
①Free time is rare in modern life. Just look around you. Aren’t the adults all busy with something? But why is that?
②Imagine yourself as a busy office worker. Now, you have a set of technology (技术). It could make every part of your job easier. What would you do with all that extra time? Well, you would probably work the same amount (数量) of time as before, or even more. You doubt about this, don’t you? But in fact, something similar happened in the U.S. in the 20th century — not in factories or offices, but in homes.
③American homes in the early 1900s weren’t much different from those in the 1500s. There was no electricity (电). Most families had no water pipes. Family members had to carry every drop of water in and out of the house.
④Over the following years, many new appliances (家用电器) were made to save people’s time. Modern toilets, fridges and washing machines made their way into more and more homes. However, none of them saved hours of work. In the 1920s, full-time housewives spent 51 hours a week doing housework. In the 1960s, they were working 53 hours.
⑤This may seem surprising, but the reasons are simple. Better technology leads to higher expectations (预期), and higher expectations create more work. For example, before modern technology, most people washed their clothes only twice a year. Bad smell was unavoidable. Washing machines changed that. People began washing their clothes more often. And because it was easier to wash the clothes, people bought more shirts and dresses. As a result, housewives found themselves washing and drying more clothes.
⑥Technology has cut down the time it takes to cook a meal or wash a shirt. But it has also saved time for other housework, especially childcare. Since the 1980s, American parents have nearly doubled the amount of time they spend raising, teaching and driving their kids around town.
⑦Most of us can make our lives easier with modern technology. But instead of enjoying more rest time, we often find ourselves working more towards a better life. Without big changes in society’s expectations, people will take on more work and never feel like enough.
61. To support his ideas, the writer mostly discussed American ________ in the 20th century.
A. factory life B. office life C. school life D. home life
62. The underlined word “that” in Paragraph 5 refers to (指) “________”.
A. people seldom washing their clothes B. people buying more shirts and dresses
C. people spending much time washing clothes D. housewives washing all of the family’s clothes
63. How has the time American parents spend on childcare changed since the 1980s?
A. It has dropped. B. It has nearly doubled.
C. It has slightly risen. D. It has stayed about the same.
64. Which of the following shows the structure of this passage?
A. ①/②/③④⑤⑥/⑦ B. ①/②③④⑤/⑥/⑦
C. ①②③④/⑤⑥/⑦ D. ①②③/④⑤⑥/⑦
65. What’s the best title of this article?
A. More technology, less work! B. More technology, less work?
C. The technology behind less work D. The technology behind more work
【答案】61. D 62. A 63. B 64. A 65. B
【解析】
【导语】本文讨论了技术进步究竟是否减少了工作量。
【61题详解】

细节理解题。根据“Since the 1980s, American parents have nearly doubled the amount of time they spend raising, teaching and driving their kids around town.”可知自1980年代以来,美国父母花在照料孩子上的时间几乎翻了一番。故选B。

【解析】
【详解】句意:中国在天安门广场举办了盛大的阅兵仪式,来纪念中国人民抗日战争暨世界反法西斯战争胜利80周年。此处要表达“第80周年”的含义,表述“第几个周年”需要用序数词,80的序数词变化为把基数词eighty的词尾y变为ie,再加-th,即eightieth;或直接填写80th。

A Special Show Held in San Francisco

Held at San Francisco’s Asian Art Museum on Dec 12, 2024, the show displays nearly 50 paintings and letters by Qi Baishi (1864-1957), one of China’s most famous 20th-century painters. It runs until April 9, 2025 and will later go to Boston.
Qi is best known for painting nature’s small wonders-shrimps (虾), birds, chickens and fish. His works show the simple joy of life, whether it’s a tiny insect, or an opening flower. His paintings catch millions of art fans’ eyes by bringing back memories of the countryside and their hometowns. “His works are special and he mostly praised the energy of nature and life’s strength through his art,” says Du Yuxin from the Beijing Fine Art Academy.
Born into a village in Hunan, Qi started as a carpenter (木匠). It was really a hard situation then. But just like those small lives he painted, their strong wish for life pushed him to keep going. He taught himself painting and later moved to Beijing to learn art. “He was sincere and down-to-earth, painting what he saw and felt,” Du explains. Finally, he became really good at ink painting, bringing traditional skills and his own style together.
The show isn’t just about looking at art. One popular part is Letters from Baishi. Hundreds of envelopes (信封) hang in the air. Inside, there is a letter and a copy of Qi’s artworks. Visitors can take one as a souvenir (纪念品). Next to it is the “Time-travel Postbox,” where people can write letters to Qi. Visitor Smith wrote, “Thank you for creating your art. It helps me remember this is where we come from.”
Qi’s works were first shown in San Francisco in 1960, and now this new show continues to bridge cultures and gets people around the world to have a better understanding of Chinese art.

【答案】例文:
Dear Robert,
I’m very glad that you’d like to make friends with me. The Chinese zodiac features 12 animal signs in this order: Rat, Ox, Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Snake, Horse, Sheep, Monkey, Rooster, Dog and Pig. It has a history of more than 2,000 years. There is an animal for each year.
My animal sign is the Dragon. I am very outgoing and I like making friends with people around me. I have extremely high expectations of myself and I am very careful. I’m considered to be energetic and ambitious, which might be related to my animal sign.
My favourite colour is green. When spring comes, everything comes to life and everything is green. So I think green is a symbol of life and energy.

All the best!
