You can choose fresh, natural ingredients and avoid the additives and preservatives often found in processed foods(此外，自己做饭是一个更健康的选择。当你在家做饭时，你可以控制你使用的食材。你可以选择新鲜的、天然的食材，避免加工食品中常见的添加剂和防腐剂)”可知，自己做饭是更健康的选择是因为你可以控制食材，故选C项。 【45题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“However, like any hobby, cooking requires some practice and patience. At first, your dishes may not turn out as expected, but don't be discouraged. With time and experience, you will improve your skills and be able to create amazing meals(然而，像任何爱好一样，烹饪需要一些练习和耐心。一开始，你的菜肴可能不会像预期的那样，但不要气馁。随着时间和经验的积累，你会提高你的技能，能够做出令人惊叹的饭菜)”可知，如果第一次烹饪尝试不成功，作者建议多练习，不要气馁，故选C项。 C In one apartment in Jos, Nigeria, Wuni Bitrus and a dozen students gathered around a table covered with a toolbox, a 12-volt adapter and a mix of colored wires. The students’ idea was to build a “smart” door that opens with the touch of a finger. The students chatted in sign language, and Mr. Bitrus signed back. The group discussed using Arduino, an open-source electronics platform, and one student wondered how fingerprints could be stored. Mindful of Nigeria’s electricity problems, Mr. Bitrus advised the group to use a battery-powered keypad lock system first and include a fingerprint feature later. After nodding in agreement, the students excitedly started working. This is one typical scene in a club run by the Deaf Technology Foundation (DTF), a nonprofit co-founded by Mr. Bitrus. It coaches deaf Nigerian children and young adults in computer programming and robotics which are believed to maintain a rising trend in today’s labor market. The students also work to improve their reading skills and receive career guidance. Mr. Bitrus’ desire to change Nigeria’s deaf communities was awakened in 2016. While teaching, he noticed a 13-year-old girl was treated unfairly and he became determined to learn sign language. One year later, he got funded by the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and established DTF with a friend. One of the darkest memories that Mercy Samson Grimah, a student of the foundation, has about growing up is looking at the faces of people around her. Ms. Grimah says her private secondary school did not formally teach sign language to her, nor much of anything else. But fortunately, she formed a bond with the foundation. “I’d never touched a laptop before in my life, ” she says. Now, she wants to become a computer scientist. So far, DTF has been struggling to keep the dreams of these students alive, as it can only afford two paid instructors and it is difficult to keep up with the growing number of students. DTF intends to take advantage of Nigeria’s rapid tech development, joining hands with companies on self-driving car technology and automated wheelchairs to secure its existence. 46. What does the scene in the Jos’s apartment display? A. A debate about door security issues. B. A sense of teamwork and innovation. C. The serious competition among students. D. The complexity of teaching deaf students. 47. What is the primary goal of DTF? A. To bridge the digital gap for deaf youths. B. To build smart devices for deaf students. C. To create a social platform for deaf students. D. To provide psychological aid for deaf students. 48. What aspect of DTF does paragraph 4 focus on? A. Its influence. B. Its objective. C. Its challenges. D. Its origins. 49. Why does the author mention Mercy Samson Grimah? A. To show her passion for computer science. B. To indicate the importance of aiming high. C. To highlight DTF’s impact on its students. D. To present the struggles of deaf students. 50. What difficulty is DTF experiencing? A. Limited learning materials. B. Shortage of skilled instructors. C. Insufficient financial resources. D. Failure to attract more students. 【答案】46. B 47. A 48. D 49. C 50. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了聋哑人技术基金会（DTF）如何帮助尼日利亚聋哑学生。 【46题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“In one apartment in Jos, Nigeria, Wuni Bitrus and a dozen students gathered around a table covered with a toolbox, a 12-volt adapter and a mix of colored wires. The students’ idea was to build a “smart” door that opens with the touch of a finger. (在尼日利亚乔斯的一间公寓里，乌尼·比鲁斯和十几个学生围坐在一张桌子旁，桌子上放着一个工具箱、一个12伏的适配器和各种彩色电线。学生们的想法是建造一扇“智能”门，用手指触摸就能打开)”以及第二段中“The group discussed using Arduino, an open-source electronics platform, and one student wondered how fingerprints could be stored. Mindful of Nigeria’s electricity problems, Mr. Bitrus advised the group to use a battery-powered keypad lock system first and include a fingerprint feature later. After nodding in agreement, the students excitedly started working. (小组讨论了使用开源电子平台Arduino，一名学生想知道如何存储指纹。考虑到尼日利亚的电力问题，比鲁斯建议该团队先使用电池供电的键盘锁系统，然后再加入指纹功能。点头表示同意后，学生们兴奋地开始工作)”可知，Jos公寓里的场景展示了学生们的团队合作和创新精神。故选B。 【47题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“This is one typical scene in a club run by the Deaf Technology Foundation (DTF), a nonprofit co-founded by Mr. Bitrus. It coaches deaf Nigerian children and young adults in computer programming and robotics which are believed to maintain a rising trend in today’s labor market. (这是由聋人技术基金会（Deaf Technology Foundation，简称DTF）运营的一个俱乐部的典型场景。该基金会由比特鲁斯先生与他人共同创立，是一家非营利组织。基金会指导尼日利亚的聋哑儿童和青年学习计算机编程和机器人技术，这些技能在当今劳动力市场中被认为呈上升趋势)”可知，DTF的主要目标是帮助聋哑青年弥合数字鸿沟，学习有市场需求的技能。故选A。 【48题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第四段“Mr. Bitrus’ desire to change Nigeria’s deaf communities was awakened in2016. While teaching, he noticed a 13-year-old girl was treated unfairly and he became determined to learn sign language. One year later, he got funded by the MassachusettsInstitute of Technology and established DTF with a friend. (Bitrus先生改变尼日利亚聋哑群体现状的愿望始于2016年。当时，他在教学过程中注意到一名13岁女孩受到了不公平对待，于是他下定决心学习手语。一年后，他获得了麻省理工学院的资助，并与一位朋友共同创立了DTF)”可知，第四段主要讲述了DTF的起源和创立过程。故选D。 【49题详解】 推理判断题。根据第五段“One of the darkest memories that Mercy Samson Grimah, a student of the foundation, has about growing up is looking at the faces of people around her. Ms. Grimah says her private secondary school did not formally teach sign language to her, nor much of anything else. But fortunately, she formed a bond with the foundation. “I’d never touched a laptop before in my life, ” she says. Now, she wants to become a computer scientist. (该基金会的一名学生Mercy Samson Grimah关于成长最痛苦的回忆之一，就是看着周围人的表情。Grimah说，她就读的私立中学没有正式教过她手语，其他方面也没教多少。但幸运的是，她和该基金会建立了联系。“我以前从来没摸过笔记本电脑，”她说。现在，她想成为一名计算机科学家)”可推知，作者提到Mercy Samson Grimah是为了突出DTF对学生的影响。故选C。 【50题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段中“So far, DTF has been struggling to keep the dreams of these students alive, as it can only afford two paid instructors and it is difficult to keep up with the growing number of students. DTF intends to take advantage of Nigeria’s rapid tech development, joining hands with companies on self-driving car technology and automated wheelchairs to secure its existence. (到目前为止，聋人技术基金会（DTF）一直在努力让这些学生的梦想得以实现，因为它只能负担得起两名有薪酬的指导老师，而且很难跟上不断增加的学生数量。聋人技术基金会打算利用尼日利亚快速的技术发展，与企业在自动驾驶汽车技术和自动轮椅方面展开合作，以确保自身的存续)”可知，DTF正经历着资金资源不足的困难。故选C。 第Ⅱ卷（非选择题） 五、阅读表达：本大题共1小题，共10分。 The old man walked slowly into the restaurant. His poor jacket, patched (打补丁的) trousers, and worn-out shoes made him stand out from the usual Saturday morning breakfast crowd. Unforgettable were his pale blue eyes that sparkled (闪耀) like diamonds, large rosy cheeks, and thin lips held in a steady smile. With the help of his trusty cane (拐杖), he walked toward a table by the window. A young waitress named Mary watched him and ran over to him, and said, “Here, Sir. Let me give you a hand with that chair.” Without a word, he smiled and nodded a thank you. She pulled the chair away from the table. Steadying him with one arm, she helped him move in front of the chair, and get comfortably seated. Then she pushed the table up close to him, and leaned his cane against the table where he could reach it. In a soft, clear voice he said, “Thank you, Miss.” “You are welcome, Sir.” She replied. “My name is Mary. I’ll be back in a moment. If you need anything, just wave at me!” After he had finished a hearty meal of pancakes, bacon, and hot lemon tea, Mary brought him the change, helping him up from his chair and out from behind the table. She handed him his cane, and walked with him to the front door. Holding the door open for him, she said, “Come back and see us, Sir!” He nodded a thank you and said softly with a smile, “You are very kind!” When Mary went to clean his table, she was surprised. Under his plate she found a business card and a note written on the napkin, under which was a $ 100 bill. The note on the napkin read... “Dear Mary, I respect you very much, and you respect yourself, too. It shows by the way you treat others. You have found the secret of happiness. Your kind gestures will shine through those who meet you.” The man she had served was the owner of the restaurant. This was the first time that she, or any of his employees, had seen him in person. 51. Who helped the old man in the restaurant? (No more than 8 words) 52. Please explain the underlined phrase “stand out” in English. (No more than 5 words) 53. How much did the old man leave on the table? (No more than 2 words) 54. Who do you think the old man was? (No more than 10 words) 55. According to the passage, how do you understand the meaning of “Happiness”？ (No more than 20 words) 【答案】51. A young waitress named Mary 52. Be very easy to see/ notice; be easily seen; different. 53. $100 bill 54. The boss of the restaurant. 55. I think “Happiness” is to respect myself and others. 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。主要讲述了一家餐厅的老板，衣衫褴褛地进入餐厅与女服务员的互动，由此告诉我们快乐的秘诀就是尊重自己和他人。 【51题详解】 考查细节理解。根据第二段中第二句“A young waitress named Mary watched him and ran over to him.”（一位名叫玛丽的年轻女服务员看到他并迎向他）可知，在餐厅中是服务员Mary帮助了他。故答案为A young waitress named Mary。 【52题详解】 考查词句猜测。根据第一段中“ His poor jacket, patched (打补丁的) trousers, and worn-out shoes .”（他那件破旧的夹克衫、打补丁的裤子和破旧的鞋子）可知，老人衣衫褴褛，所以非常“突出显眼”，即：与众不同、容易被人看见/注意到，故答案为Be very easy to see/ notice; be easily seen; different. 【53题详解】 考查细节理解。根据第8段最后一句“under which was a $ 100 bill.”（在他的盘子下面，她发现了一张名片和一张写在餐巾纸上的便条，下面是一张100美元的钞票。）可知，盘子下面是一张100美元的钞票。故答案为$100 bill。 【54题详解】 考查细节理解。最后一段的第一句“the man she had served was the owner of the restaurant.”（她接待的那个人是这家餐馆的老板。）可知，老人是餐厅的老板，故答案为The boss of the restaurant. 【55题详解】 考查推理判断。倒数第二段中的第一句“I respect you very much, and you respect yourself, too. It shows by the way you treat others. You have found the secret of happiness.”（我非常尊重你，你也尊重你自己。从你对待他人的方式就可以看出。你已经找到了快乐的秘诀。）由此可知，快乐的秘诀就是尊重自己和他人。故答案为I think “Happiness” is to respect myself and others. 六、书面表达：本大题共1小题，共15分。 56. 假定你是李华，下周你校将举办英语演讲比赛。请你围绕“Learning for life”写一篇演讲稿参赛，内容包括： 1．终身学习的重要性；2．如何做到终身学习；3．你的呼吁。 注意： 1．词数80左右； 2．可适当增加细节，以使行文连贯； 3．开头已经给出，不计入总词数。 Good morning, everyone!

C In one apartment in Jos, Nigeria, Wuni Bitrus and a dozen students gathered around a table covered with a toolbox, a 12-volt adapter and a mix of colored wires. The students’ idea was to build a “smart” door that opens with the touch of a finger. The students chatted in sign language, and Mr. Bitrus signed back. The group discussed using Arduino, an open-source electronics platform, and one student wondered how fingerprints could be stored. Mindful of Nigeria’s electricity problems, Mr. Bitrus advised the group to use a battery-powered keypad lock system first and include a fingerprint feature later. After nodding in agreement, the students excitedly started working. This is one typical scene in a club run by the Deaf Technology Foundation (DTF), a nonprofit co-founded by Mr. Bitrus. It coaches deaf Nigerian children and young adults in computer programming and robotics which are believed to maintain a rising trend in today’s labor market. The students also work to improve their reading skills and receive career guidance. Mr. Bitrus’ desire to change Nigeria’s deaf communities was awakened in 2016. While teaching, he noticed a 13-year-old girl was treated unfairly and he became determined to learn sign language. One year later, he got funded by the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and established DTF with a friend. One of the darkest memories that Mercy Samson Grimah, a student of the foundation, has about growing up is looking at the faces of people around her. Ms. Grimah says her private secondary school did not formally teach sign language to her, nor much of anything else. But fortunately, she formed a bond with the foundation. “I’d never touched a laptop before in my life, ” she says. Now, she wants to become a computer scientist. So far, DTF has been struggling to keep the dreams of these students alive, as it can only afford two paid instructors and it is difficult to keep up with the growing number of students. DTF intends to take advantage of Nigeria’s rapid tech development, joining hands with companies on self-driving car technology and automated wheelchairs to secure its existence. 46. What does the scene in the Jos’s apartment display? A. A debate about door security issues. B. A sense of teamwork and innovation. C. The serious competition among students. D. The complexity of teaching deaf students. 47. What is the primary goal of DTF? A. To bridge the digital gap for deaf youths. B. To build smart devices for deaf students. C. To create a social platform for deaf students. D. To provide psychological aid for deaf students. 48. What aspect of DTF does paragraph 4 focus on? A. Its influence. B. Its objective. C. Its challenges. D. Its origins. 49. Why does the author mention Mercy Samson Grimah? A. To show her passion for computer science. B. To indicate the importance of aiming high. C. To highlight DTF’s impact on its students. D. To present the struggles of deaf students. 50. What difficulty is DTF experiencing? A. Limited learning materials. B. Shortage of skilled instructors. C. Insufficient financial resources. D. Failure to attract more students. 第Ⅱ卷（非选择题） 五、阅读表达：本大题共1小题，共10分。 The old man walked slowly into the restaurant.

Steadying him with one arm, she helped him move in front of the chair, and get comfortably seated. Then she pushed the table up close to him, and leaned his cane against the table where he could reach it. In a soft, clear voice he said, “Thank you, Miss.” “You are welcome, Sir.” She replied. “My name is Mary. I’ll be back in a moment. If you need anything, just wave at me!” After he had finished a hearty meal of pancakes, bacon, and hot lemon tea, Mary brought him the change, helping him up from his chair and out from behind the table. She handed him his cane, and walked with him to the front door. Holding the door open for him, she said, “Come back and see us, Sir!” He nodded a thank you and said softly with a smile, “You are very kind!” When Mary went to clean his table, she was surprised. Under his plate she found a business card and a note written on the napkin, under which was a $ 100 bill. The note on the napkin read... “Dear Mary, I respect you very much, and you respect yourself, too. It shows by the way you treat others. You have found the secret of happiness. Your kind gestures will shine through those who meet you.” The man she had served was the owner of the restaurant. This was the first time that she, or any of his employees, had seen him in person. 51. Who helped the old man in the restaurant? (No more than 8 words) 52.
