1. How time flies! You have already grown into ________ adult now.
A. a B. an C. the D. \
【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】句意:时光飞逝!你现在已经长成一个成年人了。
a一个(用于辅音音素前);an一个(用于元音音素前);the这/那(特指);\ 不填。此处表示泛指“一个成年人”,且adult是以元音音素开头的单词,应用an。
2. If you have a problem, don’t ________ with each other. Please talk about it patiently.
A. share B. communicate C. connect D. argue
【答案】D
【解析】
【详解】句意:如果你有问题,不要彼此争吵。请耐心交谈。
share分享;communicate交流;connect连接;argue争吵。根据“Please talk about it patiently.”可知,遇到问题应该耐心交谈,而不是争吵,应填argue。
3. I am careless. ________ my parents ________ I think I will make a good accountant.
A. Not only; but also B. Neither; nor C. Either; or D. Both; and
【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】句意:我很粗心。我父母和我都不认为我会成为一名好的会计师。
Not only; but also“不仅……而且……”;Neither; nor“既不……也不……”;Either; or 表示“要么……要么……”;Both; and“两者都……”。根据“I am careless.”可知,粗心的人不适合做会计师,因此后句应表达否定含义,即“父母和我都不认为”。Neither; nor 符合语境。
4. Cai Lei’s illness slowly ________ his ability to control his muscles, but he never gives up.
A. takes away B. looks after C. points out D. stays up
【答案】A
【解析】
【详解】句意:蔡磊的疾病慢慢剥夺了他控制肌肉的能力,但他从未放弃。
takes away带走/剥夺;looks after照顾;points out指出;stays up熬夜。根据“Cai Lei’s illness”与“ability”的逻辑关系可知,疾病会削弱身体机能,即“剥夺”能力,且后文“but”表示转折,强调虽患病但不放弃。故选A。
5. In yesterday’s running race, a robot became the ________! It ran fastest!
A. manager B. winner C. president D. musician
【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】句意:在昨天的赛跑中,一个机器人成了获胜者!它跑得最快!

【答案】A
【解析】
【详解】句意:无论生活看起来多么艰难,总有一些你可以做的事情。
However无论多么;Whenever无论何时;Whatever无论什么;Whoever无论谁。根据“…difficult life may seem”可知,空后是形容词difficult,however后接形容词或副词引导让步状语从句,意为“无论多么”。故选A。
7. Look! The boys are singing ________ the girls are dancing. How happy they are!
A. while B. before C. when D. since
【答案】A
【解析】
【详解】句意:看!男孩们在唱歌,而女孩们在跳舞。他们多么开心啊!
while当……时候;before在……之前;when当……的时候;since自从,因为。根据“Look!”及前后分句均为现在进行时可知,两个动作同时发生且存在对比关系,应用while连接。故选A。
8. —Can you tell me ________?
—Maybe next Sunday, but I am not sure.
A. how we volunteered in the community B. that we will volunteer in the community
C. when we will volunteer in the community D. whether will we volunteer in the community

how we volunteered in the community我们如何在社区做志愿活动;that we will volunteer in the community我们将要在社区做志愿活动;when we will volunteer in the community我们什么时候去社区做志愿活动;whether will we volunteer in the community我们是否将要去社区做志愿活动。根据答语“Maybe next Sunday”可知询问的是时间,引导词应用when,语序需用陈述语序,C选项符合语境和结构。

— ________
A. I think you do. B. That’s why you worry too much.

I think you do.我认为如此;That’s why you worry too much.那就是你过度焦虑的原因;To be honest, I often feel worried too.说实话我也经常焦虑”;Why not eat healthily and exercise more?为什么不健康饮食、多锻炼呢?。根据问句“What should I do?”可知,说话人在寻求建议。A、B、C三项均未给出实质性建议,只有D项使用“Why not...?”句型提出健康饮食和锻炼的具体建议,符合语境。
10. —I want to be a scientist, but it seems so difficult for me.
—Don’t worry. ________. Just keep trying.
A. A miss is as good as a mile B. Many hands make light work
C. Where there is a will, there is a way D. When in Rome, do as the Romans do
【答案】C
【解析】
【详解】句意:——我想成为一名科学家,但对我来说似乎太难了。——别担心。有志者事竟成。只要坚持尝试。
A miss is as good as a mile失之毫厘,谬以千里;Many hands make light work人多力量大;Where there is a will, there is a way有志者事竟成;When in Rome, do as the Romans do入乡随俗。根据“Just keep trying”可知,此处是在鼓励对方只要有决心就能成功,Where there is a will, there is a way符合语境。

【解析】
【导语】本文主要讲述了作者搬到英国小镇后,在大橡树下进行为期一年的冥想挑战,通过感受自然的变化,学会了慢下来生活、感受身边的美好,并领悟到幸福其实就在身边。
【11题详解】
句意:我一看到房子后面的大橡树,就爱上了它。
此处指代前文提到的“the big oak tree”(大橡树),是单数名词,所以用代词it。them“它们”指代复数;me“我”和you“你”指代人,均不符合。
【12题详解】
句意:那时我想出了一个特别的主意:我要在这棵橡树下冥想整整一年。
后文描述了他决定每天在树下冥想一年的计划,这是一个“想法/主意”,idea符合语境。skill“技能”;problem“问题”;mistake“错误”均不符合语境。
【13题详解】
句意:我决定在2023年冬至开始。
后文“I decided to...”以及他开始了为期一年的挑战,说明此处指“开始”这个挑战,start符合语境。continue“继续”;meet“遇见”;rest“休息”均不符合。
【14题详解】
句意:最初的几个月感觉很难,因为冷雨和大风接踵而至。
后文提到“cold rains and strong winds”(冷雨和强风),说明条件艰苦,所以感觉“困难”,difficult符合语境。dangerous“危险的”;boring“无聊的”;simple“简单的”,均不符合。
【15题详解】
句意:坐在户外的时候,我总会带一个热水瓶来保暖。
带热水瓶的目的是在寒冷的户外保持“温暖”,warm符合语境。safe“安全”;calm“平静”;relaxed“放松”均不是热水瓶的主要作用。
【16题详解】
句意:有一次,我甚至怀疑过我的决定,但我想继续挑战。
转折词“but”表示前后语义相反,后面说“想继续”,前面应该是消极的“怀疑”,doubted符合语境。accepted“接受”;believed“相信”;forgot“忘记”均不符合转折逻辑。
【17题详解】
句意:随着春天到来,一切开始苏醒。
后文“The silent winter was over, and life returned...”说明春天万物复苏,wake up符合语境。show off“炫耀”;calm down“平静下来”;run away“逃跑”均不符合春天万物复苏的语境。
【18题详解】
句意:蟋蟀和鸟儿突然出现了,让整个田野充满了生动的声音。
描述春天生命回归时,动物“突然”出现,带有惊喜感,suddenly符合语境。sadly“悲伤地”;angrily“愤怒地”;closely“紧密地”均不符合语境。
【19题详解】
句意:看着这些自然的小变化让我非常惊讶。
前文描述了从冬天到春天的变化(花开、动物出现),这些都是自然界的“变化”,changes符合语境。places“地方”;troubles“麻烦”;rules“规则”均不符合。
【20题详解】
句意:我学会了慢下来去享受周围的小美好,而不是匆匆度过生活。
与后文“instead of rushing through life”(而不是匆匆忙忙地生活)形成对比,所以是“慢下来”,slow down符合语境。give up“放弃”;fall down“摔倒”;get up“起床”均不符合。
【21题详解】
句意:这需要努力,但是是必要的。
根据语境,为了获得耐心和平静,这种努力是“必要的”,necessary符合语境。strange“奇怪的”;popular“流行的”;tiring“累人的”均不符合此处积极肯定的语气。
【22题详解】
句意:在2024年冬至——我一年挑战的最后一天,我拿起吉他,向大树唱出我的感谢。
前文说从2023年冬至开始,为期一年,所以2024年冬至是“最后”一天,final符合语境。first“第一”;every“每个”;next“下一个”均不符合时间逻辑。
【23题详解】
句意:我们常在远方寻找幸福,但有时它就在我们身边。
前后句意存在转折关系,故用“但是”,but符合句意。and“和”;or“或者”;so“所以”均不符合转折逻辑。
【24题详解】
句意:自然知道我们需要什么,并随时准备提供它。
与“Nature knows what we need”呼应,大自然会“提供”我们所需。offer符合语境。find“找到”;change“改变”;make“制作”均不符合“大自然给予”的语境。
【25题详解】
句意:我们需要做的就是保持足够的安静去感受它。
全文强调冥想、静坐、慢下来,所以需要“安静”才能感受自然的美好,quiet符合语境。positive“积极的”;confident“自信的”;wise“明智的”均不是感受自然的核心条件。

B
You might have heard the famous saying, “When the Eight Immortals (神仙) cross the sea, each shows their special power.” But do you know who these eight immortals are? After watching the movie All Wishes Come True! (《八仙!》), you might be able to recognize each one.
Instead of retelling the well-known folk story of Ba Xian Guo Hai (The Eight Immortals Crossing the Sea), the film offers a fresh new story, exploring the lives of the eight common people before they become immortals.
The movie follows Zhongli Quan, a man who had to live as a thief (小偷) because of a wrong curse (诅咒). One day, his younger friend, Lyu Dongbin, invites him to take on a dangerous task: stealing a powerful lamp from three immortals’ place. If he helps, Zhongli will get other treasures hidden inside the place. Along the way, they meet six other companions (同伴), each with special abilities.
At first, most of the eight seem to be selfish, only caring about money and themselves. But as the story continues, Zhongli remembers his early wish to save all common people, and the companions finally decide to fight together.
In the end, these eight people finally become true immortals who save everyone. But the movie doesn’t focus on the power of immortals. It shows how important courage and responsibility are for common people. Through their actions, the eight prove one important truth: the kindness inside every common person can make a big difference.
29. What dangerous task does Lyu Dongbin invite Zhongli Quan to do?
A. To save all common people. B. To steal a powerful lamp.
C. To become a true immortal. D. To find other companions.
30. What are the eight people like at the beginning of the movie?
A. Most of them are ready to help others.
B. Most of them only care about themselves.
C. They have great courage and responsibility.
D. They are true immortals and save everyone.
31. What can we infer from the passage?
A. Lyu Dongbin can only live as a thief at last.
B. The movie tells the same old story of Ba Xian Guo Hai.
C. Zhongli Quan used to think it important to help ordinary people.
D. The movie shows the kindness inside every immortal can make a difference.
32. What is the text mainly about?
A. The life story of Zhongli Quan.
B. A famous saying about the Eight Immortals.
C. An introduction to the movie All Wishes Come True!.
D. The folk story of The Eight Immortals Crossing the Sea.
【答案】29. B 30. B 31. C 32. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文,介绍了改编自传统八仙故事的新电影,讲述八位普通人从最初自私自利,在结伴冒险的过程中重拾勇气与责任,最终凭借普通人内心的善良完成蜕变、拯救众人的故事。
【29题详解】
根据文章第三段“One day, his younger friend, Lyu Dongbin, invites him to take on a dangerous task: stealing a powerful lamp from three immortals’ place.”可知吕洞宾邀请钟离权执行的危险任务是偷一盏强大的灯。
【30题详解】
根据文章第四段“At first, most of the eight seem to be selfish, only caring about money and themselves.”可知电影开始时大多数人只关心自己和金钱。
【31题详解】
根据文章第四段“Zhongli remembers his early wish to save all common people”可推知钟离权早期曾认为帮助普通人很重要,所以后来才回忆起这个愿望。
【32题详解】
通读全文,文章第一段提到“After watching the movie All Wishes Come True!... you might be able to recognize each one.”,后续段落均围绕该电影剧情和主题展开,可知文章主要是介绍这部电影。
C
Gary was just fifteen, but he already knew what he wanted to do. Life wasn’t easy since his dad’s company closed. His parents were much more careful about money now. They always said to him: “Turn off the lights, Gary. Don’t waste food, Gary. Don’t throw your money away, Gary.” Only his mother had a job—in a dry-cleaning shop. So, right now they had to be careful with money, but soon he would have all the money he could dream of.
A door slammed (使砰地关上).
“Anyone home?” shouted a voice.
“Me,” said Gary.
A tall dark-haired man appeared in the doorway of the living room. “So, how was the match?” asked the man.
“Hi, Dad! I scored a goal—the only goal.”
“Brilliant!” said his dad. “I knew you could do it. I’m really sorry I couldn’t come. I had that job interview today.”
“How did it go?”
“Oh, they’ll call me if they need someone.” Gary saw that his dad was disappointed.
“That’s tough,” said Gary.
“Don’t worry,” said his dad. “When you’re a professional (专业的) footballer, you can help your poor old dad. I won’t need to look for jobs then.” He turned around and went into the kitchen.
Gary continued looking at the photos on the walls. There was one of him when he was a baby. That was around the time when his dad hurt his knee playing in a game. Today doctors can fix knee problems, but when his dad was a footballer, they couldn’t do anything to help him. He had to leave the team. His life changed completely after that. It took him a long time to find work, but finally he got a job as the Marketing Manager of a sportswear company. Then about a year ago, the company closed down. Now he was always on his way to a job interview, or just coming back from one. Gary decided that would never happen to him. He gave his knees a little tap. They were fine. “Good,” thought Gary.
——Adapted from Mr Football

【导语】本文讲述了Gary父亲失业后家庭经济紧张,父亲曾因膝伤结束足球生涯,Gary立志成为职业球员以改变家庭状况并避免重蹈父亲覆辙的故事。
【33题详解】
根据第一段“Life wasn’t easy since his dad’s company closed. His parents were much more careful about money now.”可知,父亲公司倒闭,父母对金钱谨慎,说明现在家庭生活拮据。

根据对话中“‘Brilliant!’ said his dad. ‘I knew you could do it.’”可知,父亲认为表现很棒且相信儿子能做到,体现了骄傲的情感。
【35题详解】
根据父亲解释缺席原因的句子“I’m really sorry I couldn’t come. I had that job interview today.”可知,父亲缺席是因为当天有工作面试。

D
① For a long time, sheep have been the main animals used for grazing (放牧) in the UK. However, a new study found that changing sheep into cattle (牛) can increase butterfly numbers. How did cattle suddenly become a “savior” for the butterflies?
② The study turned a 1,200-hectare area from sheep grazing into cattle grazing. After 18 years, the area had 4.9 times more butterflies than before. Sheep use their small mouths to pick out the plants they like, often biting away the wildflowers that butterflies depend on. Cattle, on the other hand, wrap (裹) their tongues around taller plants and pull them out. This helps to clear areas of grass, giving wildflowers more room and light to grow.
③ A volunteer project has also shown that cattle play an important role in butterfly protection in the UK, but in a different way.
④The high brown fritillary butterfly, one of the rarest British butterflies, is the pickiest (最挑剔的) about its living environment. Paul Dunn, who started the project to help this kind of butterfly grow again, told the BBC. For three years, Dunn and other volunteers have encouraged locals to graze cows in the areas where the butterflies live in the Alun Valley. Surprisingly, the number of the butterflies is now on the rise.
⑤ This is because when cattle walk on bracken (蕨类植物), they create uneven (不平整的) ground. These bumpy areas form small, warm spots where caterpillars can grow well. What’s more, cattle help control the amount of bracken, preventing it from overgrowing. Too much bracken can make it difficult for the caterpillars’ important food, the dog violet, to grow.
37. What might the underlined word “savior” mean in Paragraph 1?
A. Enemy. B. Helper. C. Neighbor. D. Owner.
38. Which animal’s eating habit helps butterflies according to Paragraph 2?
A. B. C. D.
39. How do cattle benefit butterflies in both cases?
A. They offer more food for butterflies.
B. They change the soil in butterflies’ living areas.
C. They help protect caterpillars from other animals.
D. They improve growing conditions for certain plants.
40. Which of the following shows how the passage is organized?
A. ①/②/③④⑤ B. ①/②/③/④⑤ C. ①/②③④/⑤ D. ①/②③④⑤
【答案】37. B 38. B 39. D 40. A
【解析】
【导语】本文主要介绍了英国一项研究发现,将放牧的羊换成牛可以增加蝴蝶数量,并解释了牛在不同方式下对蝴蝶保护的积极作用。
【37题详解】
文章第①段最后一句“How did cattle suddenly become a ‘savior’ for the butterflies?”指出,牛突然成为了蝴蝶的“救星”。结合第②段内容,牛通过吃草为野花腾出生长空间,从而帮助蝴蝶数量增加,因此savior意为“救星、拯救者”。选项B正确。
【38题详解】
文章第②段第三句“Sheep use their small mouths to pick out the plants they like, often biting away the wildflowers that butterflies depend on.”指出,羊会用小嘴挑食,咬掉蝴蝶赖以生存的野花。第②段第四、五句“Cattle, on the other hand, wrap their tongues around taller plants and pull them out. This helps to clear areas of grass, giving wildflowers more room and light to grow.”指出,牛用舌头卷住较高的植物拔出来,为野花腾出空间和光照。因此是牛的进食习惯帮助了蝴蝶。B选项图为牛用舌头卷植物,符合原文描述。
【39题详解】
文章第②段指出牛通过清除较高的草,为野花提供更多生长空间和光照;第⑤段指出牛踩踏蕨类植物形成不平整地面,为毛毛虫提供温暖的小环境,同时控制蕨类植物数量,防止其过度生长影响毛毛虫的食物(狗紫罗兰)生长。两种情况都是牛改善了某些植物的生长条件,从而有利于蝴蝶和毛毛虫。
【40题详解】
文章第①段提出问题:牛如何成为蝴蝶的“救星”;第②段介绍一项研究,说明牛通过吃草帮助蝴蝶;第③段引出另一个志愿者项目;第④⑤段介绍该项目中牛以不同方式帮助珍稀蝴蝶。因此结构为:①总起,②一个方面,③④⑤另一个方面。对应A选项①/②/③④⑤。

【解析】
【导语】本文主要介绍了风靡当下的性格测试带给我们的三大益处——更好地理解他人、清晰认识自己的喜恶以及更明智从容地面临困难,同时在文末提醒人们应理性看待测试结果,切勿盲目全盘迷信。
【41题详解】
根据空后一句的简短肯定答语“Perhaps they can.”以及下文“Here are the benefits of these tests.”可知,空处需为一个能引出该回答的以情态动词can开头的问句。D选项“Can these interesting personality tests really help us?”的疑问句与答句在语法结构与问答逻辑上高度吻合。
【42题详解】
第二段围绕小标题“更好地理解他人”展开,空后通过转折副词Instead引出“our differences make us special…”。B选项“No personality type is “better” than another.”否定了性格类型的高下优劣之分,与后文副词Instead引导的强调每个人独特性格价值的观点形成鲜明对照与顺畅衔接。
【43题详解】
第三段围绕小标题“Know our likes and dislikes.”展开,空前举例指出有人讨厌打电话却不知其深层原因,空后进一步说明“By showing the features of our personality, they help us see whether we are outgoing or quiet…”。F选项“With the help of such tests, we can learn more about ourselves.”承上启下,既呼应了本段的小标题主旨,又自然引出后文对自我性格偏好的探索。
【44题详解】
空处位于第四个板块的小标题位置,与其他两个小标题“Understand others better.”和“Know our likes and dislikes.”在形式上保持一致,需用动词原形开头的祈使短语。正文具体指出“When we know ourselves well, we can face challenges in smarter ways. We can solve problems more easily…”,重点阐明能够更智慧地面对挑战和解决困难。A选项“Face difficulties more wisely.”句式对称,且精准概括了本节的核心主旨。
【45题详解】
第五段空后指出“They can give us useful advice, but they cannot decide who we are.”,强调不可盲目偏信测试结果。E选项“However, we should not believe everything the test results tell us.”中的转折连词However自然引出对测试局限性的客观提醒,适合作总结段的首领句。

【46题详解】
句意:Simon!你最近为了即将到来的考试真的非常努力。此处需要一个名词,作介词的宾语,由“You have worked really hard lately for the coming...”可知,为了即将到来的“考试”努力学习,方框中exam意为“考试”,符合语境。
【47题详解】
句意:是的!我坚持练习,每天专注于我的学习。此处需要一个形容词,与stay构成系表结构,由“I keep practising and stay...on my studies every day”可知,每天“专注于”学习,方框中focused意为“专注的”,stay focused on为固定搭配,意为“专注于”,符合语境。
【48题详解】
句意:我不想让自己失望。此处需要一个动词,作want to的宾语,由“I don’t want to...myself”可知,不想“使”自己“失望”,方框中disappoint意为“使失望”,want to后接动词原形,符合语境。

【导语】本文主要探讨了青少年在面对校园生活困难时应保持冷静、做出正确抉择的重要性,勉励大家坚守梦想、循序渐进,阐明了持之以恒必能达成目标并收获蜕变的人生哲理。
【51题详解】
句意:每当我们面对困难时,我们都应该保持冷静并仔细思考。此处需要一个从属连词,在句中引导时间状语从句。根据从句内容“we face difficulties”以及主句建议保持冷静可知,此处强调在任何面临困境的时刻,连词whenever意为“每当;无论何时”,符合从句的时间逻辑。故选用whenever表示“每当;无论何时”。
【52题详解】
句意:当我们处于困境时,做出正确的决定是非常重要的。此处需要一个单数可数名词,在句中作动名词Making的宾语。根据空前的不定冠词a与形容词right可知,固定短语“make a decision”意为“做决定”,符合理智权衡、做出正确抉择的语境。故选用decision表示“决定”。
【53题详解】
句意:如果我们坚持努力且永不放弃,我们将实现最终的目标。此处需要一个动词短语原形,在句中与助动词will构成一般将来时作谓语。根据空后的宾语“our final goals”可知,此处是固定短语“make it to”,意为“成功达到;实现”,表示经过不懈奋斗达成既定目标。故选用make it to表示“成功达到;实现”。
【54题详解】
句意:如果我们坚守梦想并勇往直前,我们一定会取得成功。此处需要一个动词原形,在句中与不定式符号to构成动词不定式。根据固定句型“be sure to do sth.”意为“必定会做某事”以及前半句坚持梦想的因果逻辑可知,选用动词原形succeed表示“成功”。故选用succeed表示“成功”。
【55题详解】
句意:在我们坚持一点一滴去尝试后不久,我们就会看到自己身上的巨大变化。此处需要一个时间副词,在句中修饰连词after引导的时间状语从句。固定搭配“shortly after…”意为“在……之后不久”,符合表达循序渐进尝试后很快能见到成效的时间逻辑。故选用shortly表示“不久”。
七、短文填空(共10小题;每小题1分,满分10分)
阅读下面短文,在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。
Have you ever felt worried about your looks? Nowadays, it is quite common for many ____56____ (teenager) to face the problem of appearance anxiety (容貌焦虑). Using social media (社交媒体) a lot makes this problem even worse.
There ____57____ (be) lots of ideas online, telling us what “perfect looks” are like. They keep ____58____ (tell) teenagers how they should look. Many teenagers’ ideas of beauty ___59___ (influence) by such ideas. As ___60___ result, they lose confidence and try to change their looks just to meet the “perfect” standard.
So, how can we deal ____61____ this problem?
First, we should learn to accept ____62____ (we). No one is perfect. We all have likes and dislikes about our looks. Instead of focusing on ____63____ we are unsatisfied with, we should try to find and value our shining points.
Second, realize that health and good qualities matter ___64___ (much) than appearance. If we are ____65____ (health) and kind, we will have the energy to live fully and feel truly happy.
Last but not least, remember that you are never alone with such troubles. Feel free to ask family, friends or experts for advice.
Let’s bravely accept who we truly are and live a confident and wonderful life.
【答案】56. teenagers
57. are 58. telling
59. are influenced
60. a 61. with
62. ourselves
63. what 64. more
65. healthy
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文,围绕当下青少年普遍存在的容貌焦虑问题展开,指出社交媒体上泛滥的“完美外貌”标准是加剧该问题的主要诱因,随后给出了三条应对建议。
【56题详解】
句意:如今,许多青少年都面临容貌焦虑的问题,这是相当普遍的现象。空格前有形容词many,用于修饰可数名词复数,所以可数名词teenager需要变为复数形式teenagers。
【57题详解】
句意:网络上存在大量宣扬“完美外貌”标准的观点。there be句型,be动词的形式由后面的主语决定;本句主语是lots of ideas,为复数概念,且全文主体时态为一般现在时,因此be动词用are。
【58题详解】
句意:不断告诉青少年他们应该长成什么样子。考查固定搭配keep doing sth,意为“持续做某事、一直做某事”,因此动词tell需要变为动名词形式telling。
【59题详解】
句意:许多青少年的审美观念都受到了这类观点的影响。主语Many teenagers’ ideas of beauty和动词influence之间是被动关系,即“审美观念被观点影响”;同时全文为一般现在时,主语是复数,因此使用一般现在时的被动语态are influenced。
【60题详解】
句意:结果,他们失去了自信,为了达到所谓的“完美”标准,不惜尝试改变自己的外貌。考查固定短语as a result,意为“结果、因此”,是固定搭配,因此填入不定冠词a。
【61题详解】
句意:那么,我们该如何应对这个问题呢?考查固定搭配deal with,意为“应对、处理(问题)”,符合句意“我们该如何应对这个问题”,因此填入介词with。
【62题详解】
句意:首先,我们应该学会接纳自己。句子主语和宾语指代的都是主语自身,因此需要使用反身代词ourselves“我们自己”。
【63题详解】
句意:与其把注意力放在我们不满意的部分上,不如试着去发现并重视自己的闪光点。空格处引导宾语从句,作介词短语focus on的宾语,同时从句中缺少介词with的宾语,指代“我们不满意的事物/部分”,用连接代词what引导该从句。
【64题详解】
句意:其次,要明白健康和优秀的品质比外貌更重要。此处是将健康、好品质和外貌作比较,需要用much的比较级形式more,意为“更重要”。
【65题详解】
句意:如果我们身体健康、心地善良,我们就会有充足的精力充实地生活,收获真正的快乐。空格处作系动词are的表语,和并列的形容词kind保持词性一致,因此名词health需要变为形容词形式healthy。
八、阅读表达(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)
阅读下面短文,根据短文内容,回答问题,每题答案不超过8个单词。
Papermaking is one of ancient China’s “four great inventions”, and Xuan paper shows its highest level. First created in the Tang Dynasty, this special paper is made from two natural materials: the bark of blue sandalwood trees (青檀皮) and straw from Shatian rice. It takes over 100 steps and up to three years to make the paper. This long process ensures its high quality.
Xuan paper has many amazing qualities. Many artists consider it the best choice for their works. Its surface is as smooth and shiny as jade (玉), but it is stronger than silk. Besides, the way it takes in ink and its lasting colours make it perfect for Chinese calligraphy and painting. It allows the ink to spread gently through its fibres (纤维). Even more impressively, it can last for centuries without fading (变淡).
For many years, Xuan paper factories in China have kept their traditional craft skills alive by making Xuan paper completely by hand. Skilled workers follow 108 traditional steps. The steps have been passed down through generations. Jingxian Xuan Paper Factory used to be the biggest Xuan paper factory in China. Most of its Xuan paper was sold to Japan. But times have changed. Xuan paper is less popular abroad. Now exports (出口) cover less than 10% of the factory’s sales. One reason is that the market in Japan became smaller as its economy (经济) slowed down, so people there couldn’t afford as much Xuan paper. Another reason is that the factory didn’t have good ways to sell the paper abroad.
To protect this ancient craft, the factory is trying two new ways to improve Xuan paper sales. It believes that these changes will also help more people around the world discover Xuan paper’s beauty.
66. How many natural materials is Xuan paper made from?
________________________________________________
67. Is Xuan paper stronger than silk?
________________________________________________
68. How do China’s Xuan paper factories keep their traditional craft skills alive?
________________________________________________
69. Which country used to be the biggest market for Jingxian Xuan Paper Factory?
________________________________________________
70. What new ways may the factory try to sell more Xuan paper?
________________________________________________
【答案】66. Two (natural materials).
67. Yes./Yes, it is.
68. By making Xuan paper completely by hand.
69. Japan. 70. Looking for/Finding new markets (abroad) and selling online/online sales.
【解析】
【导语】本文主要介绍了宣纸是中国古代的伟大发明之一,品质出众,有着复杂的手工制作工序。泾县宣纸厂的宣纸在海外市场萎缩,工厂尝试新方案推广宣纸,保护这项传统技艺。
【66题详解】
第一段“this special paper is made from two natural materials”已点明宣纸的天然材料种类数量,原文信息直接提取即可。
【67题详解】
第二段“it is stronger than silk”已点明宣纸比丝绸更坚固,故作肯定回答。
【68题详解】
第三段“Xuan paper factories in China have kept their traditional craft skills alive by making Xuan paper completely by hand”介绍了中国的宣纸工厂传承并保留传统工艺的方法,答案几乎是原文引述。
【69题详解】
第三段“Most of its Xuan paper was sold to Japan.”已点明泾县宣纸厂曾经最大的海外市场,原文信息直接提取即可。
【70题详解】
本题是开放性试题,答案不唯一。根据第三段“One reason is that the market in Japan became smaller… Another reason is that the factory didn’t have good ways to sell the paper abroad.”可知,市场规模小以及缺乏有效的销售渠道是宣纸销售额低的主要原因,因此可以结合这两点原因合理作答,言之有理且不超过8个单词即可。

You might have heard the famous saying, “When the Eight Immortals (神仙) cross the sea, each shows their special power.” But do you know who these eight immortals are? After watching the movie All Wishes Come True! (《八仙!》), you might be able to recognize each one.
Instead of retelling the well-known folk story of Ba Xian Guo Hai (The Eight Immortals Crossing the Sea), the film offers a fresh new story, exploring the lives of the eight common people before they become immortals.
The movie follows Zhongli Quan, a man who had to live as a thief (小偷) because of a wrong curse (诅咒). One day, his younger friend, Lyu Dongbin, invites him to take on a dangerous task: stealing a powerful lamp from three immortals’ place. If he helps, Zhongli will get other treasures hidden inside the place. Along the way, they meet six other companions (同伴), each with special abilities.
At first, most of the eight seem to be selfish, only caring about money and themselves. But as the story continues, Zhongli remembers his early wish to save all common people, and the companions finally decide to fight together.
In the end, these eight people finally become true immortals who save everyone. But the movie doesn’t focus on the power of immortals. It shows how important courage and responsibility are for common people. Through their actions, the eight prove one important truth: the kindness inside every common person can make a big difference.
29. What dangerous task does Lyu Dongbin invite Zhongli Quan to do?
A. To save all common people. B. To steal a powerful lamp.
C. To become a true immortal. D. To find other companions.
30. What are the eight people like at the beginning of the movie?
A. Most of them are ready to help others.
B. Most of them only care about themselves.
C. They have great courage and responsibility.
D. They are true immortals and save everyone.
31. What can we infer from the passage?
A. Lyu Dongbin can only live as a thief at last.

Gary was just fifteen, but he already knew what he wanted to do. Life wasn’t easy since his dad’s company closed. His parents were much more careful about money now. They always said to him: “Turn off the lights, Gary. Don’t waste food, Gary. Don’t throw your money away, Gary.” Only his mother had a job—in a dry-cleaning shop. So, right now they had to be careful with money, but soon he would have all the money he could dream of.
A door slammed (使砰地关上).
“Anyone home?” shouted a voice.
“Me,” said Gary.
A tall dark-haired man appeared in the doorway of the living room. “So, how was the match?” asked the man.
“Hi, Dad! I scored a goal—the only goal.”
“Brilliant!” said his dad. “I knew you could do it. I’m really sorry I couldn’t come. I had that job interview today.”
“How did it go?”
“Oh, they’ll call me if they need someone.” Gary saw that his dad was disappointed.
“That’s tough,” said Gary.
“Don’t worry,” said his dad. “When you’re a professional (专业的) footballer, you can help your poor old dad. I won’t need to look for jobs then.” He turned around and went into the kitchen.
Gary continued looking at the photos on the walls. There was one of him when he was a baby. That was around the time when his dad hurt his knee playing in a game. Today doctors can fix knee problems, but when his dad was a footballer, they couldn’t do anything to help him. He had to leave the team. His life changed completely after that. It took him a long time to find work, but finally he got a job as the Marketing Manager of a sportswear company. Then about a year ago, the company closed down. Now he was always on his way to a job interview, or just coming back from one. Gary decided that would never happen to him. He gave his knees a little tap. They were fine. “Good,” thought Gary.

① For a long time, sheep have been the main animals used for grazing (放牧) in the UK. However, a new study found that changing sheep into cattle (牛) can increase butterfly numbers. How did cattle suddenly become a “savior” for the butterflies?
② The study turned a 1,200-hectare area from sheep grazing into cattle grazing. After 18 years, the area had 4.9 times more butterflies than before. Sheep use their small mouths to pick out the plants they like, often biting away the wildflowers that butterflies depend on. Cattle, on the other hand, wrap (裹) their tongues around taller plants and pull them out. This helps to clear areas of grass, giving wildflowers more room and light to grow.
③ A volunteer project has also shown that cattle play an important role in butterfly protection in the UK, but in a different way.
④The high brown fritillary butterfly, one of the rarest British butterflies, is the pickiest (最挑剔的) about its living environment. Paul Dunn, who started the project to help this kind of butterfly grow again, told the BBC. For three years, Dunn and other volunteers have encouraged locals to graze cows in the areas where the butterflies live in the Alun Valley. Surprisingly, the number of the butterflies is now on the rise.
⑤ This is because when cattle walk on bracken (蕨类植物), they create uneven (不平整的) ground. These bumpy areas form small, warm spots where caterpillars can grow well. What’s more, cattle help control the amount of bracken, preventing it from overgrowing. Too much bracken can make it difficult for the caterpillars’ important food, the dog violet, to grow.
37. What might the underlined word “savior” mean in Paragraph 1?
A. Enemy. B. Helper. C. Neighbor. D. Owner.
38. Which animal’s eating habit helps butterflies according to Paragraph 2?
A. B. C. D.
39. How do cattle benefit butterflies in both cases?
A. They offer more food for butterflies.
B. They change the soil in butterflies’ living areas.
C. They help protect caterpillars from other animals.
D. They improve growing conditions for certain plants.
40. Which of the following shows how the passage is organized?
A. ①/②/③④⑤ B. ①/②/③/④⑤ C. ①/②③④/⑤ D. ①/②③④⑤

Papermaking is one of ancient China’s “four great inventions”, and Xuan paper shows its highest level. First created in the Tang Dynasty, this special paper is made from two natural materials: the bark of blue sandalwood trees (青檀皮) and straw from Shatian rice. It takes over 100 steps and up to three years to make the paper. This long process ensures its high quality.
Xuan paper has many amazing qualities. Many artists consider it the best choice for their works. Its surface is as smooth and shiny as jade (玉), but it is stronger than silk. Besides, the way it takes in ink and its lasting colours make it perfect for Chinese calligraphy and painting. It allows the ink to spread gently through its fibres (纤维). Even more impressively, it can last for centuries without fading (变淡).
For many years, Xuan paper factories in China have kept their traditional craft skills alive by making Xuan paper completely by hand. Skilled workers follow 108 traditional steps. The steps have been passed down through generations. Jingxian Xuan Paper Factory used to be the biggest Xuan paper factory in China. Most of its Xuan paper was sold to Japan. But times have changed. Xuan paper is less popular abroad. Now exports (出口) cover less than 10% of the factory’s sales. One reason is that the market in Japan became smaller as its economy (经济) slowed down, so people there couldn’t afford as much Xuan paper. Another reason is that the factory didn’t have good ways to sell the paper abroad.
To protect this ancient craft, the factory is trying two new ways to improve Xuan paper sales. It believes that these changes will also help more people around the world discover Xuan paper’s beauty.
