Winter solstice (冬至) is Izzie’s favorite day of the year. Guests at her house enjoy songs and stories well into the night.
But Izzie’s favorite part has always been making snow angels with Grandpa at noon. When they were standing over the angels, their shadows would look like two skinny huge men with wings.
But this year is different. One shadow is missing. Izzie feels very sad.
Uncle Bert has arrived. He greets Izzie with a hug. “Amaze us with your violin tonight, Izzie?”
Izzie holds her breath. Her violin reminds her of Grandpa. She hasn’t picked it up for weeks.
“You know Izzie doesn’t like a listener, Bert,” says Izzie’s mom.
“Kids change,” Uncle Bert smiles. “I have a gift for you, Izzie.” He hands Izzie a case.
“It’s Grandpa’s violin.” Izzie opens the case. She touches the familiar image of a sun carved into the violin’s neck, fingering the song Grandpa taught her. Grandpa said ancient people thought the earth was flat and the sun stood still on winter solstice.
Izzie feels her heart stands still. How can we have solstice without Grandpa’s song?
The sun starts setting. All guests have arrived, talking and laughing. For a moment, Izzie thinks she hears Grandpa’s voice. But it’s only Uncle Bert sounding like him.
Soon, it turns dark. Dad starts the bonfire. The celebration will begin.
Grandpa was always first. When the bonfire began, he’d step onto the chair and play his favorite song, Sweet Angels Come Nearer. Izzie would get a warm feeling.
Izzie knows the sun will start rising and setting tomorrow, but she feels lost without Grandpa’s song. Someone needs to play it. But who will?
Dad tells a story. Aunt Bea sings. Simon reads a poem.
In a moment of quiet, Izzie’s hand shoots into the air.
“Izzie? You’d like to share, too?” Dad asked.
She steps up onto the chair, hands shaking. She takes a breath and turns her back to the fire, pretending (假装) no one is watching. One shaky note. Another. She imagines Grandpa playing the same violin. Her notes become stronger.
As she plays, a voice rises behind her, singing the words to Grandpa’s song. It’s Uncle Bert. Mom joins in. Then Dad, Simon, Aunt Bea.
Voices enlarge. Grandpa’s violin soars (飞扬).
Izzie feels the love of her family encircle her, warm like sunshine.
13. Which of the following activities did Izzie’s grandpa do with her?
①making snow angels together at noon ②playing the violin around the bonfire
③reading a winter poem to the guests ④enjoying the strange huge shadows
A. ①③④ B. ②③④ C. ①②④ D. ①②③
14. What’s the correct order of the events?

c. Izzie plays the violin bravely at the celebration.

e. Izzie doesn’t touch the violin for a long time because of missing Grandpa.
A. d → e → a → b → c B. d → a → e → c → b
C. a → e → d → b → c D. a → d → e → b → c
15. What can we infer (推断) from the passage?

Artwork is lovely to look at, and it has the power to make people feel and think differently. But do you know that when people see a real work of art, rather than just looking at a photo of it, they are likely to experience stronger emotions (情绪)?
Scientists recently carried out a study at the Mauritshuis museum in The Hague, a city in the Netherlands. The museum is home to Girl with a Pearl Earring, a very famous painting by Dutch artist Johannes Vermeer. It was painted in 1665.
①The researchers used eye-tracking equipment and a brain scanner to watch how people reacted to several paintings. First, the volunteers were asked to look at the real paintings on display, and then at photos of the artworks in the museum shop.
②It was shown that their emotional reactions (反应) were 10 times stronger when they looked at the real paintings. The most active part of the brain while looking at the artworks was the area that controls people’s personal identity and consciousness.
③How did that happen? According to the study, people may experience something called a “sustained attentional loop” when they watched a certain painting. The volunteers’ attention was first drawn to the girl’s left eye, then her mouth, then to her pearl earring. This certain order of eye movements repeated in a continuous loop. Each time they completed the cycle, their focus became stronger and their connection with Girl with a Pearl Earring was deeper, which meant that people stared at the painting for longer. Martin de Munnik, one of the researchers in this study, said, “That means you have to pay attention whether you want to or not.” It was as if the painting itself had a power to hold the viewers’ attention and guide their eye movement in a very involuntary way.
④The director of the Mauritshuis, Martine Gosselink, said that the study shows how important it is to go and see art in real life, whether it’s paintings, photography or dancing. She added, “it really helps develop your brain.” The researchers are now eager to broaden their study, planning to visit other museums and do the same experiments on works, like the Mona Lisa by Leonardo da Vinci.
17. What is the purpose of the study?
A. To explain different ways to study a painting.
B. To check people’s interest in museum paintings.
C. To find differences between a painting and its photo.
D. To watch people’s reactions to real art and its photos.
18. We can put the following sentence “The team also found that the group reacted even more strongly to Girl with a Pearl Earring.” in ________.
A. ① B. ② C. ③ D. ④
19. How does the writer introduce the “sustained attentional loop”?
A. By giving an example. B. By telling a story.
C. By listing numbers. D. By offering advice.
20. Why was Mona Lisa mentioned at the end of the passage?
A. To introduce a world famous art work.
B. To explain the plan for further research.
C. To show the researchers’ love for it.
D. To prove its influence on people’s brain.

五、阅读表达(本大题共 5小题,每小题 2分,共 10分)
Every morning in Beijing’s parks, you can see groups of people moving slowly like flowing water. They are practising tai chi. Tai chi is deeply based on the Chinese philosophy of yin and yang. Chinese people invented tai chi to keep the balance of yin and yang in the body through opposite movements.
As a saying goes, “Water is the softest substance in the world, yet it can penetrate the hardest rock.” Tai chi shows us soft things can be stronger than hard things. Scientists have found people who do tai chi regularly (定期地) not only feel less stressed, but also sleep better at night. A recent study showed older adults who practised for six months improved their balance by nearly one-third, which helped prevent falls.
But some young people today think tai chi is too slow for their fast lives. They prefer exercises that make their hearts beat fast, like basketball or dancing. As a wise teacher in Shanghai explained, “We should make old traditions useful for today’s world rather than keep them like treasures in a box.” So some creative teachers now mix traditional tai chi moves with modern music, which attracts many young people who want to try something different.
What’s amazing is tai chi has become popular all over the world. Whether in busy cities like New York or quiet towns in Europe, people are finding out sometimes moving slowly can help them solve problems faster. An experienced tai chi master put it simply, “Don’t waste energy fighting walls. Look for the door that’s already open.” This ancient exercise reminds us patience and smart thinking often work better than rushing things! That’s why more and more schools are teaching tai chi.
61. When do people practise tai chi in Beijing’s parks?
_________________________________________________________
62. Who invented tai chi?
_________________________________________________________
63. What two things do scientists say tai chi helps with?
_________________________________________________________
64. How do teachers attract young people to practise tai chi?

65. As a student, what difference do you think tai chi can make to your study?

六、词汇运用(本大题共10小题;每小题1分,共10分)

Winter solstice (冬至) is Izzie’s favorite day of the year. Guests at her house enjoy songs and stories well into the night.
But Izzie’s favorite part has always been making snow angels with Grandpa at noon. When they were standing over the angels, their shadows would look like two skinny huge men with wings.
But this year is different. One shadow is missing. Izzie feels very sad.
Uncle Bert has arrived. He greets Izzie with a hug. “Amaze us with your violin tonight, Izzie?”
Izzie holds her breath. Her violin reminds her of Grandpa. She hasn’t picked it up for weeks.
“You know Izzie doesn’t like a listener, Bert,” says Izzie’s mom.
“Kids change,” Uncle Bert smiles. “I have a gift for you, Izzie.” He hands Izzie a case.
“It’s Grandpa’s violin.” Izzie opens the case. She touches the familiar image of a sun carved into the violin’s neck, fingering the song Grandpa taught her. Grandpa said ancient people thought the earth was flat and the sun stood still on winter solstice.
Izzie feels her heart stands still. How can we have solstice without Grandpa’s song?
The sun starts setting. All guests have arrived, talking and laughing. For a moment, Izzie thinks she hears Grandpa’s voice. But it’s only Uncle Bert sounding like him.
Soon, it turns dark. Dad starts the bonfire. The celebration will begin.
Grandpa was always first. When the bonfire began, he’d step onto the chair and play his favorite song, Sweet Angels Come Nearer. Izzie would get a warm feeling.
Izzie knows the sun will start rising and setting tomorrow, but she feels lost without Grandpa’s song. Someone needs to play it. But who will?
Dad tells a story. Aunt Bea sings. Simon reads a poem.
In a moment of quiet, Izzie’s hand shoots into the air.
“Izzie? You’d like to share, too?” Dad asked.
She steps up onto the chair, hands shaking. She takes a breath and turns her back to the fire, pretending (假装) no one is watching. One shaky note. Another. She imagines Grandpa playing the same violin. Her notes become stronger.
As she plays, a voice rises behind her, singing the words to Grandpa’s song. It’s Uncle Bert. Mom joins in. Then Dad, Simon, Aunt Bea.
Voices enlarge. Grandpa’s violin soars (飞扬).
Izzie feels the love of her family encircle her, warm like sunshine.
13. Which of the following activities did Izzie’s grandpa do with her?
①making snow angels together at noon ②playing the violin around the bonfire
③reading a winter poem to the guests ④enjoying the strange huge shadows
A. ①③④ B. ②③④ C. ①②④ D. ①②③
14. What’s the correct order of the events?
a. Uncle Bert gives Grandpa’s violin to Izzie as a gift.
b. Guests get together and the celebration is going to start.
c. Izzie plays the violin bravely at the celebration.
d. Grandpa and Izzie used to make snow angels on Winter Solstice.
e. Izzie doesn’t touch the violin for a long time because of missing Grandpa.
A. d → e → a → b → c B. d → a → e → c → b
C. a → e → d → b → c D. a → d → e → b → c
15. What can we infer (推断) from the passage?
A. It’s meaningful for people to hold a celebration on the solstice.
B. Izzie can feel the love of family around, warm like sunshine.
C. When the bonfire began, Grandpa was the first to play his fiddle.
D. Izzie seldom played the violin in front of others before Grandpa passed away.
16. Which is the best title for the passage?
A. A solstice celebration B. The sun stands still
C. A warm-hearted uncle D. The violin remains there
【答案】13. C 14. A 15. D 16. B
【解析】
【导语】本文讲述了Izzie在冬至这天怀念已故的爷爷,最终勇敢地拿起爷爷的小提琴演奏,感受到家人温暖的故事。
【13题详解】
第二段指出:“making snow angels with Grandpa at noon”(①正确)、“their shadows would look like two skinny huge men with wings”(④正确);第十二段指出:“Grandpa was always first. When the bonfire began, he’d step onto the chair and play his favorite song”(②正确);未提到“reading a winter poem to the guests”(③错误)。因此①②④正确。
【14题详解】
故事顺序为:第二段提到过去祖孙一起做雪天使(d:“making snow angels with Grandpa at noon”);第五段提到Izzie几周没碰小提琴(e:“She hasn’t picked it up for weeks.”);第七段Uncle Bert送来爷爷的小提琴(a:“He hands Izzie a case. ‘It’s Grandpa’s violin.’”);第十段提到宾客聚集庆祝开始(b:“All guests have arrived, talking and laughing”);第十七段至结尾Izzie勇敢演奏(c:“She steps up onto the chair...plays the violin”),因此d→e→a→b→c。
【15题详解】
文中提到妈妈说Izzie不喜欢有听众(第六段“You know Izzie doesn’t like a listener”),Izzie在聚会上演奏时手在颤抖(第十七段“hands shaking”),并假装没人观看(第十七段“pretending no one is watching”),说明她以前很少在众人面前演奏小提琴。因此D项“Izzie seldom played the violin in front of others before Grandpa passed away.”符合推断。B项和C项为原文直接细节,不属于推断。
【16题详解】
文中多次出现太阳的意象:第八段爷爷告诉Izzie古人认为“the sun stood still on winter solstice”,小提琴上刻着“a sun”,第九段爷爷去世后Izzie感到“the sun stands still”,暗示失去爷爷生活仿佛停滞;最后一段Izzie演奏后感受到家人的爱“warm like sunshine”,象征爷爷的陪伴与温暖仍在。因此“The sun stands still”作为标题既能呼应冬至太阳静止的传统说法,又隐喻爷爷的离去与爱的回归。
C
Artwork is lovely to look at, and it has the power to make people feel and think differently. But do you know that when people see a real work of art, rather than just looking at a photo of it, they are likely to experience stronger emotions (情绪)?
Scientists recently carried out a study at the Mauritshuis museum in The Hague, a city in the Netherlands. The museum is home to Girl with a Pearl Earring, a very famous painting by Dutch artist Johannes Vermeer. It was painted in 1665.
①The researchers used eye-tracking equipment and a brain scanner to watch how people reacted to several paintings. First, the volunteers were asked to look at the real paintings on display, and then at photos of the artworks in the museum shop.
②It was shown that their emotional reactions (反应) were 10 times stronger when they looked at the real paintings. The most active part of the brain while looking at the artworks was the area that controls people’s personal identity and consciousness.
③How did that happen? According to the study, people may experience something called a “sustained attentional loop” when they watched a certain painting. The volunteers’ attention was first drawn to the girl’s left eye, then her mouth, then to her pearl earring. This certain order of eye movements repeated in a continuous loop. Each time they completed the cycle, their focus became stronger and their connection with Girl with a Pearl Earring was deeper, which meant that people stared at the painting for longer. Martin de Munnik, one of the researchers in this study, said, “That means you have to pay attention whether you want to or not.” It was as if the painting itself had a power to hold the viewers’ attention and guide their eye movement in a very involuntary way.
④The director of the Mauritshuis, Martine Gosselink, said that the study shows how important it is to go and see art in real life, whether it’s paintings, photography or dancing. She added, “it really helps develop your brain.” The researchers are now eager to broaden their study, planning to visit other museums and do the same experiments on works, like the Mona Lisa by Leonardo da Vinci.
17. What is the purpose of the study?
A. To explain different ways to study a painting.
B. To check people’s interest in museum paintings.
C. To find differences between a painting and its photo.
D. To watch people’s reactions to real art and its photos.
18. We can put the following sentence “The team also found that the group reacted even more strongly to Girl with a Pearl Earring.” in ________.
A. ① B. ② C. ③ D. ④
19. How does the writer introduce the “sustained attentional loop”?
A. By giving an example. B. By telling a story.
C. By listing numbers. D. By offering advice.
20. Why was Mona Lisa mentioned at the end of the passage?
A. To introduce a world famous art work.
B. To explain the plan for further research.
C. To show the researchers’ love for it.
D. To prove its influence on people’s brain.
【答案】17. D 18. C 19. A 20. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是说明文,介绍了科学家在荷兰海牙莫瑞泰斯美术馆开展的研究,发现人们观看真实艺术品比观看照片时情绪反应更强烈,分析了《戴珍珠耳环的少女》引发更强反应的“持续注意循环”机制,还说明了研究的现实意义与后续拓展计划。
【17题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第3段“The researchers used eye-tracking equipment and a brain scanner to watch how people reacted to several paintings. First, the volunteers were asked to look at the real paintings on display, and then at photos of the artworks in the museum shop.”可知,研究的目的是观察人们对真实艺术品及其照片的反应。
【18题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第4段“It was shown that their emotional reactions were 10 times stronger when they looked at the real paintings.”及第5段“How did that happen?”可知,待插入句子是补充的具体研究发现,承接上文的总体研究结果,引出下文对该现象的原因分析,放在③处逻辑最通顺。
【19题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第5段“people may experience something called a “sustained attentional loop” when they watched a certain painting. The volunteers’ attention was first drawn to the girl’ s left eye, then her mouth, then to her pearl earring. This certain order of eye movements repeated in a continuous loop.”可知,作者通过列举人们观看《戴珍珠耳环的少女》时的视线移动规律的例子,来介绍“持续注意循环”的概念。
【20题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“The researchers are now eager to broaden their study, planning to visit other museums and do the same experiments on works, like the Mona Lisa by Leonardo da Vinci.”可知,文末提到《蒙娜丽莎》是为了说明研究人员后续的拓展研究计划。

【解析】
【导语】本文讲述“隐形男孩”Alex因Jake主动邀请他合作完成科学项目而逐渐走出自我封闭、重拾自信的故事。
【21题详解】
句意:他已经习惯了身边的沉默,以至于他相信自己注定要独自一人。
根据上文“Alex was an ‘invisible(隐形的)boy’ at school. His voice was seldom heard in class”,Alex是“隐形男孩”,课堂上很少被听到声音,说明他身边是“沉默的”,silence“沉默”符合语境。attention“关注”、praise“赞扬”和support“支持”均与“隐形男孩”的处境不符。
【22题详解】
句意:Alex立刻感到紧张。
根据上文“The science teacher announced an important partner project”及下文“He sat there silently, staring at his desk”,没有伙伴的Alex面对需要搭档的项目感到“紧张的”,nervous符合题意。angry“生气的”、relaxed“放松的”和bored“无聊的”均与语境不符。
【23题详解】
句意:就在那时,一个声音传来:“嘿,你有搭档了吗?”
根据下文“Wanna work together?”,Jake想和Alex一起合作,说明是问他有没有“搭档”,partner符合题意。speaker“演讲者”、listener“倾听者”和competitor“竞争者”均不符。
【24题详解】
句意:Alex点头答应了。
根据上文“Wanna work together?”及“Alex was speechless”,Jake邀请Alex合作,Alex说不出话来,应是点头“答应”,nodded符合题意。refused“拒绝”与Alex内心的惊喜不符,shouted“大喊”和cried“大哭”均与speechless矛盾。
【25题详解】
句意:起初,尽管Jake很友好,Alex仍然感到紧张。
根据上文“Alex still felt nervous”及“Jake was friendly”,前后为让步转折关系;although“尽管”符合。because“因为”表原因,so“所以”表结果,if“如果”表条件,均不符。
【26题详解】
句意:Jake做研究,而Alex用令人惊叹的图画把他们的发现变得生动起来。
根据下文“he was Alex, a person with ideas and talents”及结尾“someone from Jake’s soccer team cheered”,再结合上文“I saw your picture of the solar system”,Alex擅长画画,pictures“图画”符合题意。books“书”、reports“报告”和speeches“演讲”均不符。
【27题详解】
句意:Alex第一次感到“被看见”。
根据下文“He wasn’t just the ‘invisible boy’”,他不再只是“隐形男孩”,说明他第一次感到“被看见”,seen符合题意。forgotten“被遗忘”、hated“被讨厌”和tricked“被欺骗”均与语境相反。
【28题详解】
句意:他是Alex,一个拥有想法和才能、被人珍视的人。
根据上文“He was Alex, a person with ideas and talents”,Jake欣赏并珍视Alex的才能,valued“珍视”符合题意。mentioned“提到”、protected“保护”和doubted“怀疑”均不符。
【29题详解】
句意:他清楚地说出了他的名字。
根据上文“’Well done, Alex!’”,队友喊出了Alex的名字,说明Alex“名字”被清楚地说出,name符合题意。idea“想法”、plan“计划”和address“地址”均不符。
【30题详解】
句意:慢慢地,Alex开始走出自己的外壳。
根据下文“He dared to speak up in class. He even joined an art club”,Alex的变化是逐渐发生的,slowly“慢慢地”符合语境。Suddenly“突然地”变化过快,Luckily“幸运地”和Exactly“确切地”均不符。

五、阅读表达(本大题共 5小题,每小题 2分,共 10分)
Every morning in Beijing’s parks, you can see groups of people moving slowly like flowing water. They are practising tai chi. Tai chi is deeply based on the Chinese philosophy of yin and yang. Chinese people invented tai chi to keep the balance of yin and yang in the body through opposite movements.
As a saying goes, “Water is the softest substance in the world, yet it can penetrate the hardest rock.” Tai chi shows us soft things can be stronger than hard things. Scientists have found people who do tai chi regularly (定期地) not only feel less stressed, but also sleep better at night. A recent study showed older adults who practised for six months improved their balance by nearly one-third, which helped prevent falls.
But some young people today think tai chi is too slow for their fast lives. They prefer exercises that make their hearts beat fast, like basketball or dancing. As a wise teacher in Shanghai explained, “We should make old traditions useful for today’s world rather than keep them like treasures in a box.” So some creative teachers now mix traditional tai chi moves with modern music, which attracts many young people who want to try something different.
What’s amazing is tai chi has become popular all over the world. Whether in busy cities like New York or quiet towns in Europe, people are finding out sometimes moving slowly can help them solve problems faster. An experienced tai chi master put it simply, “Don’t waste energy fighting walls. Look for the door that’s already open.” This ancient exercise reminds us patience and smart thinking often work better than rushing things! That’s why more and more schools are teaching tai chi.
