It has a time-honored history and rich culture; we mainly speak Chinese, and must-visit attractions like the ancient Great Wall and the grand Forbidden City are real wonders. Besides, Chinese food such as dumplings and noodles is loved around the world. I feel proud of China—it mixes traditional charm with modern energy perfectly. This amazing land will surely impress you deeply. I hope you can visit China one day and see its beauty for yourself. You will find something new every time you travel here.

B When my sister Louisa and I attended Mr. Hawkins’ school, we had to walk through thick woods every day. There was no proper road, so our father marked trees with cuts to guide us. For most of the winter, we followed the trees safely, but one morning, everything changed. That morning, a heavy snow began to fall. Mother stood at the door, saying worriedly, “John, the snow’s getting heavy. The children should stay home today.” Dad shook his head. “A little snow never hurt anybody. When I was their age, I walked through worse. They’ll be just fine.” We left happily, but as we walked farther, the snow covered the marked trees, and we gradually (逐渐地) lost our way. We decided to head north to follow a young man’s footprints. However, the snow kept falling harder, and the footprints became unclear. Louisa held my arm so hard. “Oliver, what if we never find the way?” Her voice was shaking. I tried to look brave. “I’ll get us out of here. Just stay close to me.” Inside, though, my heart was beating fast. Then a thought hit us: what if these weren’t a man’s footprints at all? What if they belonged to a bear? We couldn’t help crying, realizing we were truly lost. But we knew a little about the woods—not much, but maybe enough. We calmed down and kept following the footprints. Finally, we walked into a clearing and saw a small house. We ran over and knocked. To our surprise, it was our neighbor Aunt Polly who opened the door. When she heard our story, she laughed, “So you two brave ones were following my old cow, Bessie! She’s smarter than she looks and brought you right to my door.” Aunt Polly took us in, warmed us up by the fire, and sent us home safely. It was a terrible but unforgettable day for Louisa and me. —Adapted from Home in Woods 14．Which of the following is the correct order? ①The children were lost in the woods.         ②Trees were marked to guide the children. ③Dad walked through worse weather.             ④Aunt Polly took the children in her house. A．②③①④ B．②③④① C．③②④① D．③②①④ 15．What helped Louisa and Oliver get out of the woods? A．The marks made on the trees. B．Footprints that belonged to a cow. C．Aunt Polly coming to look for them. D．Their memory of the way back home. 16．How did Louisa’s feelings change during the walk? A．Excited—calm—afraid. B．Happy—afraid—relaxed. C．Confident—worried—calm. D．Afraid—angry—surprised. 17．What can be learnt from the story? A．Parents should always care about their children. B．Getting lost in the woods can be a fun experience. C．Staying calm can help you find a way out in danger. D．Animals can be smarter than humans in some situations C ①Recently, I asked a friend who had just walked in the woods what she had noticed. “Nothing special,” she replied. ②How was it possible, I asked myself, to walk through the woods and see nothing worthy of note? I who cannot see find hundreds of things to interest me only through touch. If I can get so much pleasure from touch, how much more beauty must be found by sight (视力)? And I have imagined what I should most like to see if I were given the use of my eyes for just three days. ③On the first day, I should want to see the people who have made my life worth living and the books which have been read to me. In the afternoon, I should take a walk in the woods and admire the beauties of nature. That night, I should not be able to sleep. ④On my second day, I should go to the museums to see man’s progress. I should try to explore the spirit of man through his art. In the evening, I should spend time on the movies. ⑤The following day, I should spend in the world of common people going about the business of life. At midnight, permanent darkness would close in on me again, and I should realize how much I had left unseen. ⑥I who am blind can give one suggestion to those who see: Use your eyes as if tomorrow you would be blind. The same is true of other senses. Hear the songs of birds, as if you would be deaf tomorrow. Smell the flowers, as if tomorrow you could never smell again… But of all the senses, I’m sure that sight must be the most pleasant. (—Adapted from《Three Days to See》by Helen Keller) 18．What does the writer want to do during the three days? A．Read books to people on the first day. B．Go to the movies on the second day. C．Succeed in business on the third day. D．Have a wonderful dream every day. 19．What does the underlined word “permanent” in Paragraph 5 probably mean? A．bright B．silent C．endless D．frightening 20．Which is the best structure of the passage? A． B． C． D． 21．Which of the following sayings may the writer agree with? A．Time is what we want most, but what we use worst. B．Never leave until tomorrow what you can do today. C．Live every moment and be thankful for what you have. D．The future belongs to those who are preparing for it now. D Have you found out your SBTI type yet? Recently, the SBTI personality test, inspired by the MBTI assessment (评估), has drawn widespread attention. Designed only for entertainment purposes, it takes just minutes to finish and generates humorous labels such as monk, joker and ATM-er. Why are we drawn to personality tests? The answer lies in the deep-seated psychological need they promise to satisfy. The drive to understand oneself continues throughout life, as we constantly wonder who we are and where we belong. Personality tests are a simple way to get answers to these difficult questions. “Particularly with young people, they’re trying to form an identity, a sense of themselves and how they fit into the world, and how they differ from other people,” David Watson, a psychology professor from the University of Notre Dame, told Business Insider. Moreover, clear classification (分类) brings satisfaction. Humans tend to organize the world through grouping, and personality tests give us a new label beyond gender, birthplace or zodiac sign (星座). These tests also work as a social bond: They help people connect with like-minded peers (同龄人), express their inner selves and strengthen emotional ties in daily communication. Rigid (僵化的) personality labeling carries hidden risks. If we trap ourselves in a fixed type, we may limit personal growth and use labels to excuse our wrong behavior as “just ESTP things”. Moreover, personality can change over time, yet seeing ourselves purely through these categories blinds us to such changes. “While there’s nothing wrong with taking a personality test for fun, out of curiosity or even to explore aspects (方面) of your identity, it’s important not to get too attached to the labels—lest they become all that you are,” researchers Kelvin Wong and Chen Wenting wrote on The Conversation. 22．According to Watson, why do young people take personality tests? A．To justify their behavior. B．To pass the time and have fun. C．To explore the meaning of life scientifically. D．To gain a better understanding of themselves. 23．What social function do personality tests serve? A．They help people stand out more easily. B．They replace traditional identity markers. C．They strengthen ties within a community. D．They encourage people to challenge social norms. 24．What does the author imply in the last paragraph? A．Young people are the most affected by rigid labels. B．Fixed mindsets may hold back personal growth. C．Tests often fail to show one’s true character. D．Personality tests should be taken more seriously. 25．What is the author’s main purpose in the article? A．To promote a method. B．To make a comparison. C．To analyze a phenomenon. D．To correct misconceptions.   第三部分 信息还原（共5小题：每小题1分，满分5分） 请认真阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Similar to blogs, vlogs allow people to share their lives and thoughts. Video clips (片段), instead of written texts or photos, are mainly used in vlogs. While short videos of about 10 to 60 seconds in length are still popular, more and more people like vlog entries (记录), which last for several minutes. They allow vloggers to include more meaningful content. 26 ►Before filming First, plan ahead by considering the subject, the message, and the purpose of the video clip. 27 Preparing a script is especially useful to help beginner vloggers stay on topic. Also, make sure you have all the necessary equipment. ►While filming 28 You need to speak confidently to catch viewers’ attention. If you can’t get it right the first time, just try again. Design unexpected things like a phone ringing, which can make your vlog more humorous. Also, remember to protect your personal information in your vlog. 29 ►After filming Video editing (剪辑) may sound challenging, but there are different video editing software and apps to help us. Add sound and visual effects to present information creatively. 30 And finally, think of a suitable title to let viewers know the clip’s content. A．Here is how to prepare a vlog entry. B．It shows who you are and where you live. C．Never tell others about your name or home address. D．It’s also good to add background music to set the mood. E．Speaking in a vlog is like talking in front of the viewers. F．Then, create a story with three parts—beginning, middle and end. G．You can buy expensive cameras to make your vlog perfect. 第四部分 词汇运用（共13小题；每小题1分，满分13分） 第一节 请认真阅读下面短文，并根据各题所给的汉语注释或首字母提示，在答题卡标有题号的横线上，写出空缺处各单词的正确形式，每空限填一词。 This town has a special 31 (位置) for food lovers.

When they get to famous 44 (place), they hide the book in a quiet corner, waiting for the next Chinese traveler to find it and keep this sharing going. Some of 45 (they) hide junior high school history books with pyramid (金字塔) pictures or high school English books with Tower Bridge covers. Others also put small gifts like bags and pens, and even warm notes on the 46 (one) page, such as "Seeing your words is like seeing you, and I hope you are fine." In my opinion, this is a romantic experience across mountains and seas. Strangers use a book as a sign to understand each other in a foreign country, bringing unexpected 47 (warm) to a lonely journey. 48 (look) for the books is like 49 treasure hunt. You never know where the next book is 50 (hide), what message it has, or what connection you will have with a stranger.

Now, we take these books to the world. We not only realize our childhood dreams, 52 spread the beauty of Chinese culture around the world. This book and culture sharing, which can touch people's hearts and turn textbooks 53 a bridge between Chinese people and different countries, is care across mountains and seas, love passed down through years, and deep love for our country in small details. 第六部分 阅读表达（共3小题；54题2分，55题2分，56题3分，满分7分） 请认真阅读下面短文，用英语回答短文后的问题，并将答案写在答题卡标有题号的横线上。 One day, Andy was on a business trip. When he was walking past a village, he saw many people doing their work busily in a large field. At that moment, a young man who sat by the road caught his attention. Andy wondered why the young man was free in a busy season. He was very curious, so he decided to go up and ask, “Have you grown your vegetables?” The young man shook his head and sighed, “Not yet! I am worrying about the weather. If there is a storm, my vegetables may be destroyed. If it is too cold, the seeds may not come out from the ground at all. If it is too hot, the seeds may even go bad in the soil.” Andy nodded his head and asked again, “Then, have you grown rice?” The young man thought for a while, and answered, “Not yet. I must be careful about the birds. They may eat the rice. I can’t take that risk.” “So, what have you grown then?” Andy asked in surprise. The farmer replied, “I haven’t grown anything. I am waiting for the best time! I must make sure that nothing is going to destroy my plants.” Of course, the best time never came. The young man didn’t get anything from the field at last. In our life, many people may have the same problem. Though they have dreams, they don’t take action because they worry too much about the things that haven’t come yet. They always worry about the difficulties in the future. However if they don’t do anything, how can they achieve their dreams? Always remember to keep an old saying in mind: Procrastination (拖延) is the thief of time. 54．Where did Andy see the young man? 55．Why didn’t the young man grow any vegetables or rice? 56．Which do you think is more important: waiting for the perfect moment or taking action now? Why? 第七部分 书面表达（共1题；满分25分） 57．假如你是李华，你的美国朋友Mike想要拜访亚洲的某个国家，请你根据下面提示，以“My favourite Asian country”为题，向他介绍一个你最喜欢的亚洲国家。 1. What is your favourite country? (location/capital) 2. What is special about it?

I tried to look brave. “I’ll get us out of here. Just stay close to me.” Inside, though, my heart was beating fast. Then a thought hit us: what if these weren’t a man’s footprints at all? What if they belonged to a bear? We couldn’t help crying, realizing we were truly lost. But we knew a little about the woods—not much, but maybe enough. We calmed down and kept following the footprints. Finally, we walked into a clearing and saw a small house. We ran over and knocked. To our surprise, it was our neighbor Aunt Polly who opened the door. When she heard our story, she laughed, “So you two brave ones were following my old cow, Bessie! She’s smarter than she looks and brought you right to my door.” Aunt Polly took us in, warmed us up by the fire, and sent us home safely. It was a terrible but unforgettable day for Louisa and me. —Adapted from Home in Woods 14．Which of the following is the correct order? ①The children were lost in the woods.         ②Trees were marked to guide the children. ③Dad walked through worse weather.             ④Aunt Polly took the children in her house. A．②③①④ B．②③④① C．③②④① D．③②①④ 15．What helped Louisa and Oliver get out of the woods? A．The marks made on the trees. B．Footprints that belonged to a cow. C．Aunt Polly coming to look for them. D．Their memory of the way back home. 16．How did Louisa’s feelings change during the walk? A．Excited—calm—afraid. B．Happy—afraid—relaxed. C．Confident—worried—calm. D．Afraid—angry—surprised. 17．What can be learnt from the story? A．Parents should always care about their children. B．Getting lost in the woods can be a fun experience. C．Staying calm can help you find a way out in danger. D．Animals can be smarter than humans in some situations 【答案】14．A 15．B 16．B 17．C 【导语】本文主要讲了Oliver和妹妹Louisa在大雪天上学迷路，跟着一头奶牛的脚印，最终走到邻居阿姨家得救，这是一次可怕却难忘的经历。 【详解】14．细节理解题。原文第一段“our father marked trees with cuts to guide us”对应②；第三段“When I was their age, I walked through worse”对应③；第三段“the snow covered the marked trees, and we gradually lost our way”对应①；最后一段“Aunt Polly took us in, warmed us up by the fire”对应④，顺序为②③①④。 15．细节理解题。第六段指出：“So you two brave ones were following my old cow, Bessie! She’s smarter than she looks and brought you right to my door.”，是奶牛Bessie的脚印帮助他们走出树林。 16．细节理解题。文中第三段“We left happily”说明一开始开心；第四段“Louisa held my arm so hard. ‘Oliver, what if we never find the way?’ Her voice was shaking”说明她感到害怕；最后Aunt Polly收留他们、送他们安全回家，他们放松下来，情绪变化是Happy→afraid→relaxed。 17．主旨大意题。第五段指出：“But we knew a little about the woods—not much, but maybe enough. We calmed down and kept following the footprints.”，这个故事告诉我们遇到危险时保持冷静有助于找到出路。 C ①Recently, I asked a friend who had just walked in the woods what she had noticed. “Nothing special,” she replied. ②How was it possible, I asked myself, to walk through the woods and see nothing worthy of note? I who cannot see find hundreds of things to interest me only through touch. If I can get so much pleasure from touch, how much more beauty must be found by sight (视力)? And I have imagined what I should most like to see if I were given the use of my eyes for just three days. ③On the first day, I should want to see the people who have made my life worth living and the books which have been read to me. In the afternoon, I should take a walk in the woods and admire the beauties of nature. That night, I should not be able to sleep. ④On my second day, I should go to the museums to see man’s progress. I should try to explore the spirit of man through his art. In the evening, I should spend time on the movies. ⑤The following day, I should spend in the world of common people going about the business of life. At midnight, permanent darkness would close in on me again, and I should realize how much I had left unseen. ⑥I who am blind can give one suggestion to those who see: Use your eyes as if tomorrow you would be blind. The same is true of other senses. Hear the songs of birds, as if you would be deaf tomorrow. Smell the flowers, as if tomorrow you could never smell again… But of all the senses, I’m sure that sight must be the most pleasant. (—Adapted from《Three Days to See》by Helen Keller) 18．What does the writer want to do during the three days? A．Read books to people on the first day. B．Go to the movies on the second day. C．Succeed in business on the third day. D．Have a wonderful dream every day. 19．What does the underlined word “permanent” in Paragraph 5 probably mean? A．bright B．silent C．endless D．frightening 20．Which is the best structure of the passage? A． B． C． D． 21．Which of the following sayings may the writer agree with? A．Time is what we want most, but what we use worst. B．Never leave until tomorrow what you can do today. C．Live every moment and be thankful for what you have. D．The future belongs to those who are preparing for it now. 【答案】18．B 19．C 20．D 21．C 【导语】本文是一篇议论文，节选自海伦·凯勒的《假如给我三天光明》，作者由朋友散步未发现特别事物的经历生发思考，设想了自己若拥有三天光明的具体安排，最终呼吁人们珍惜自身拥有的感官，用心感受生活的美好。 【详解】18．细节理解题。根据文章第④段“In the evening, I should spend time on the movies.”可知，作者第二天的安排包含看电影的内容，符合选项B的描述。 19．词句猜测题。根据文章第⑤段“At midnight, permanent darkness would close in on me again, and I should realize how much I had left unseen.”并结合前文作者仅能拥有三天光明的设定，可知三天结束后回归的状态是持续无尽的，permanent意为“永久的”，与endless含义相近。 20．篇章结构题。梳理全文内容可知，第①段以朋友的经历引入话题；第②段提出“假如拥有三天光明”的设想，总起下文；第③④⑤段分别介绍三天的具体安排，为分述部分；第⑥段总结全文，给出珍惜感官的建议并点明主旨。可推知文章结构为①引出②，②统领③④⑤，最终汇总到⑥，对应选项D的图示。 21．主旨大意题。根据文章第⑥段“Use your eyes as if tomorrow you would…you would be deaf tomorrow. Smell the flowers, as if tomorrow you could never smell again…”可推知，作者认同要活在当下、感恩自己所拥有的事物的观点，与选项C的表述一致。 D Have you found out your SBTI type yet? Recently, the SBTI personality test, inspired by the MBTI assessment (评估), has drawn widespread attention. Designed only for entertainment purposes, it takes just minutes to finish and generates humorous labels such as monk, joker and ATM-er. Why are we drawn to personality tests? The answer lies in the deep-seated psychological need they promise to satisfy. The drive to understand oneself continues throughout life, as we constantly wonder who we are and where we belong. Personality tests are a simple way to get answers to these difficult questions. “Particularly with young people, they’re trying to form an identity, a sense of themselves and how they fit into the world, and how they differ from other people,” David Watson, a psychology professor from the University of Notre Dame, told Business Insider. Moreover, clear classification (分类) brings satisfaction. Humans tend to organize the world through grouping, and personality tests give us a new label beyond gender, birthplace or zodiac sign (星座). These tests also work as a social bond: They help people connect with like-minded peers (同龄人), express their inner selves and strengthen emotional ties in daily communication. Rigid (僵化的) personality labeling carries hidden risks. If we trap ourselves in a fixed type, we may limit personal growth and use labels to excuse our wrong behavior as “just ESTP things”. Moreover, personality can change over time, yet seeing ourselves purely through these categories blinds us to such changes. “While there’s nothing wrong with taking a personality test for fun, out of curiosity or even to explore aspects (方面) of your identity, it’s important not to get too attached to the labels—lest they become all that you are,” researchers Kelvin Wong and Chen Wenting wrote on The Conversation. 22．According to Watson, why do young people take personality tests? A．To justify their behavior. B．To pass the time and have fun. C．To explore the meaning of life scientifically. D．To gain a better understanding of themselves. 23．What social function do personality tests serve? A．They help people stand out more easily. B．They replace traditional identity markers. C．They strengthen ties within a community. D．They encourage people to challenge social norms. 24．What does the author imply in the last paragraph? A．Young people are the most affected by rigid labels. B．Fixed mindsets may hold back personal growth. C．Tests often fail to show one’s true character. D．Personality tests should be taken more seriously. 25．What is the author’s main purpose in the article? A．To promote a method. B．To make a comparison. C．To analyze a phenomenon. D．To correct misconceptions. 【答案】22．D 23．C 24．B 25．C 【导语】本文围绕当下流行的SBTI这类娱乐向人格测试展开，介绍了人们热衷人格测试的原因，包括满足自我认知的心理需求、清晰分类带来的满足感以及其具备的社交联结作用，同时也指出僵化的人格标签会带来限制个人成长等潜在风险，对该社会现象进行了全面分析。 【详解】22．根据原文第二段David Watson教授的表述“Particularly with young people, they’re trying to form an identity, a sense of themselves and how they fit into the world, and how they differ from other people”，可见年轻人做人格测试的核心诉求是探索自我、建立自我认知，对应D选项。 23．原文第三段明确指出“These tests also work as a social bond: They help people connect with like-minded peers, express their inner selves and strengthen emotional ties in daily communication”，说明人格测试可以作为社交纽带，帮助强化社群中的情感联结，对应C选项“巩固社群内的联结”。 24．最后一段开篇就点明“Rigid personality labeling carries hidden risks. If we trap ourselves in a fixed type, we may limit personal growth”，作者暗示如果被僵化的人格标签束缚、陷入固定思维，会限制个人成长，对应B选项的表述。 25．本文围绕当下流行的SBTI类人格测试这一社会现象，先后分析了人们热衷人格测试的心理动因、这类测试的社交属性，同时也点明了过度依赖人格标签的潜在风险，整体是对“人格测试走红”这一社会现象的多角度分析，对应C选项。    第三部分 信息还原（共5小题：每小题1分，满分5分） 请认真阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Similar to blogs, vlogs allow people to share their lives and thoughts. Video clips (片段), instead of written texts or photos, are mainly used in vlogs. While short videos of about 10 to 60 seconds in length are still popular, more and more people like vlog entries (记录), which last for several minutes. They allow vloggers to include more meaningful content. 26 ►Before filming First, plan ahead by considering the subject, the message, and the purpose of the video clip. 27 Preparing a script is especially useful to help beginner vloggers stay on topic. Also, make sure you have all the necessary equipment. ►While filming 28 You need to speak confidently to catch viewers’ attention. If you can’t get it right the first time, just try again. Design unexpected things like a phone ringing, which can make your vlog more humorous. Also, remember to protect your personal information in your vlog. 29 ►After filming Video editing (剪辑) may sound challenging, but there are different video editing software and apps to help us. Add sound and visual effects to present information creatively. 30 And finally, think of a suitable title to let viewers know the clip’s content. A．Here is how to prepare a vlog entry. B．It shows who you are and where you live. C．Never tell others about your name or home address. D．It’s also good to add background music to set the mood. E．Speaking in a vlog is like talking in front of the viewers. F．Then, create a story with three parts—beginning, middle and end. G．You can buy expensive cameras to make your vlog perfect. 【答案】26．A 27．F 28．E 29．C 30．D 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，介绍如何制作vlog，从拍摄前、拍摄中、拍摄后三个阶段给出建议。 【详解】26．第一段末尾说“They allow vloggers to include more meaningful content.”，接着下一行小标题是“Before filming”，说明此处需要一句总起，引出下文如何准备vlog。A项“Here is how to prepare a vlog entry.”正好承上启下。 27．小标题“Before filming”下说“First, plan ahead by considering the subject, the message, and the purpose of the video clip.”，然后空格后说“Preparing a script is especially useful...”。这里需要接着说计划的具体步骤，F项“Then, create a story with three parts—beginning, middle and end.”用Then承接First，说明如何构建故事结构。 28．小标题“While filming”下，空格后说“You need to speak confidently to catch viewers’ attention.”，说明拍摄时要注意说话。E项“Speaking in a vlog is like talking in front of the viewers.”正好引出“说话”这一话题。 29．前文说“remember to protect your personal information in your vlog.”，空格处需要具体说明如何保护个人信息。C项“Never tell others about your name or home address.”直接给出保护个人信息的建议。 30．小标题“After filming”下说“Add sound and visual effects to present information creatively.”，空格后说“And finally, think of a suitable title...”。D项“It’s also good to add background music to set the mood.”用also补充另一种声音方面的建议，与“Add sound and visual effects”衔接。 第四部分 词汇运用（共13小题；每小题1分，满分13分） 第一节 请认真阅读下面短文，并根据各题所给的汉语注释或首字母提示，在答题卡标有题号的横线上，写出空缺处各单词的正确形式，每空限填一词。 This town has a special 31 (位置) for food lovers.

When they get to famous 44 (place), they hide the book in a quiet corner, waiting for the next Chinese traveler to find it and keep this sharing going. Some of 45 (they) hide junior high school history books with pyramid (金字塔) pictures or high school English books with Tower Bridge covers. Others also put small gifts like bags and pens, and even warm notes on the 46 (one) page, such as "Seeing your words is like seeing you, and I hope you are fine." In my opinion, this is a romantic experience across mountains and seas. Strangers use a book as a sign to understand each other in a foreign country, bringing unexpected 47 (warm) to a lonely journey. 48 (look) for the books is like 49 treasure hunt. You never know where the next book is 50 (hide), what message it has, or what connection you will have with a stranger. Some people say that we have grown up and 51 (reach) the faraway places in our textbooks. We read history and geography books many times in class, and they show our interest in the world. Now, we take these books to the world. We not only realize our childhood dreams, 52 spread the beauty of Chinese culture around the world. This book and culture sharing, which can touch people's hearts and turn textbooks 53 a bridge between Chinese people and different countries, is care across mountains and seas, love passed down through years, and deep love for our country in small details. 【答案】 44．places 45．them 46．first 47．warmth 48．Looking 49．a 50．hidden 51．reached 52．but 53．into 【导语】本文介绍了中国游客在海外旅行时分享课本的现象，阐述这种跨越山海的文化分享不仅传递温暖，也搭建起中外文化交流的桥梁。 【详解】44．句意：当他们到达著名景点时，会把书藏在安静的角落。famous后接名词复数表示“多个景点”，place的复数形式为places。 45．句意：他们中的一些人会藏起带有金字塔图片的初中历史课本或印有伦敦塔桥封面的高中英语课本。介词of后面的代词需要使用宾格形式，they的宾格是them，构成“some of them”的结构，表示“他们中的一些人”。 46．句意：其他人还会在第一页放上小礼物和暖心留言。 表示顺序的“第几页”时，需要用序数词，one对应的序数词是first，“on the first page”即“在第一页”。 47．句意：陌生人在异国他乡以书为媒介相互理解，为孤独的旅程带来意想不到的温暖。 形容词unexpected后面通常接名词，用来作bring的宾语。warm的名词形式是warmth，意为“温暖”。 48．句意：寻找这些书就像一场寻宝游戏。 句子缺少主语，动词原形不能作主语，需要变为动名词形式，因此look变为Looking（句首首字母大写）。 49．句意：寻找这些书就像一场寻宝游戏。 treasure是以辅音音素开头的单词，此处表示“一场”寻宝游戏，是泛指，因此用不定冠词a。 50．句意：你永远不知道下一本书藏在哪里，会带来什么信息，或者会和陌生人产生怎样的联结。 主语the next book和动词hide之间是被动关系，即“书被藏起来”，因此要用被动语态，hide的过去分词是hidden。 51．句意：有人说，我们已经长大，抵达了课本里的远方。 and连接的两个动作时态要保持一致，前面的“have grown up”是现在完成时，后面的reach也应使用现在完成时，过去分词是reached。 52．句意：我们不仅实现了儿时的梦想，也向世界传播了中国文化之美。 固定搭配“not only…but also…”表示递进关系，意为“不仅……而且……”，因此填but。 53．句意：这种书籍与文化分享，能触动人心，将课本转化为中外人民之间的桥梁。 固定搭配“turn…into…”表示“把……变成……”，因此填into。 第六部分 阅读表达（共3小题；54题2分，55题2分，56题3分，满分7分） 请认真阅读下面短文，用英语回答短文后的问题，并将答案写在答题卡标有题号的横线上。 One day, Andy was on a business trip. When he was walking past a village, he saw many people doing their work busily in a large field. At that moment, a young man who sat by the road caught his attention. Andy wondered why the young man was free in a busy season. He was very curious, so he decided to go up and ask, “Have you grown your vegetables?” The young man shook his head and sighed, “Not yet! I am worrying about the weather. If there is a storm, my vegetables may be destroyed. If it is too cold, the seeds may not come out from the ground at all. If it is too hot, the seeds may even go bad in the soil.” Andy nodded his head and asked again, “Then, have you grown rice?” The young man thought for a while, and answered, “Not yet. I must be careful about the birds. They may eat the rice. I can’t take that risk.” “So, what have you grown then?” Andy asked in surprise. The farmer replied, “I haven’t grown anything. I am waiting for the best time! I must make sure that nothing is going to destroy my plants.” Of course, the best time never came. The young man didn’t get anything from the field at last. In our life, many people may have the same problem. Though they have dreams, they don’t take action because they worry too much about the things that haven’t come yet. They always worry about the difficulties in the future. However if they don’t do anything, how can they achieve their dreams? Always remember to keep an old saying in mind: Procrastination (拖延) is the thief of time. 54．Where did Andy see the young man? 55．Why didn’t the young man grow any vegetables or rice? 56．Which do you think is more important: waiting for the perfect moment or taking action now? Why? 【答案】54．He saw the young man by the road in a village. 55．Because he worried about bad weather and birds destroying his crops and waited for the perfect time. 56．I think taking action now is more important. Because no perfect moment exists, and only by acting can we realize our dreams. 【导语】本文讲述了Andy在出差途中路过一个村庄，遇到一个年轻人一直在等待最佳时机种植的故事。 【详解】54．原文第一段提到“When he was walking past a village, he saw many people doing their work busily in a large field. At that moment, a young man who sat by the road caught his attention.”，因此Andy在村子旁边/路边看到了那个年轻人，直接提取答案即可。 55．原文第三、四段中，年轻人解释不种蔬菜是担心天气，不种水稻是担心鸟儿。最后他说“I am waiting for the best time! I must make sure that nothing is going to destroy my plants.”，因此他没有种植任何作物是因为他担心各种风险，一直在等待完美时机，直接提取答案即可。 56．开放性试题，答案不唯一，需表明观点并说明理由。逻辑清晰，语法正确，合理作答即可。 第七部分 书面表达（共1题；满分25分） 57．假如你是李华，你的美国朋友Mike想要拜访亚洲的某个国家，请你根据下面提示，以“My favourite Asian country”为题，向他介绍一个你最喜欢的亚洲国家。 1.

B When my sister Louisa and I attended Mr. Hawkins’ school, we had to walk through thick woods every day. There was no proper road, so our father marked trees with cuts to guide us. For most of the winter, we followed the trees safely, but one morning, everything changed. That morning, a heavy snow began to fall. Mother stood at the door, saying worriedly, “John, the snow’s getting heavy. The children should stay home today.” Dad shook his head. “A little snow never hurt anybody. When I was their age, I walked through worse. They’ll be just fine.” We left happily, but as we walked farther, the snow covered the marked trees, and we gradually (逐渐地) lost our way. We decided to head north to follow a young man’s footprints. However, the snow kept falling harder, and the footprints became unclear. Louisa held my arm so hard. “Oliver, what if we never find the way?” Her voice was shaking. I tried to look brave. “I’ll get us out of here. Just stay close to me.” Inside, though, my heart was beating fast. Then a thought hit us: what if these weren’t a man’s footprints at all? What if they belonged to a bear? We couldn’t help crying, realizing we were truly lost. But we knew a little about the woods—not much, but maybe enough. We calmed down and kept following the footprints. Finally, we walked into a clearing and saw a small house. We ran over and knocked. To our surprise, it was our neighbor Aunt Polly who opened the door. When she heard our story, she laughed, “So you two brave ones were following my old cow, Bessie! She’s smarter than she looks and brought you right to my door.” Aunt Polly took us in, warmed us up by the fire, and sent us home safely. It was a terrible but unforgettable day for Louisa and me. —Adapted from Home in Woods 14．Which of the following is the correct order? ①The children were lost in the woods.         ②Trees were marked to guide the children. ③Dad walked through worse weather.             ④Aunt Polly took the children in her house. A．②③①④ B．②③④① C．③②④① D．③②①④ 15．What helped Louisa and Oliver get out of the woods? A．The marks made on the trees. B．Footprints that belonged to a cow. C．Aunt Polly coming to look for them. D．Their memory of the way back home. 16．How did Louisa’s feelings change during the walk? A．Excited—calm—afraid. B．Happy—afraid—relaxed. C．Confident—worried—calm.

C．Staying calm can help you find a way out in danger. D．Animals can be smarter than humans in some situations C ①Recently, I asked a friend who had just walked in the woods what she had noticed. “Nothing special,” she replied. ②How was it possible, I asked myself, to walk through the woods and see nothing worthy of note? I who cannot see find hundreds of things to interest me only through touch. If I can get so much pleasure from touch, how much more beauty must be found by sight (视力)? And I have imagined what I should most like to see if I were given the use of my eyes for just three days. ③On the first day, I should want to see the people who have made my life worth living and the books which have been read to me. In the afternoon, I should take a walk in the woods and admire the beauties of nature. That night, I should not be able to sleep. ④On my second day, I should go to the museums to see man’s progress. I should try to explore the spirit of man through his art. In the evening, I should spend time on the movies. ⑤The following day, I should spend in the world of common people going about the business of life. At midnight, permanent darkness would close in on me again, and I should realize how much I had left unseen. ⑥I who am blind can give one suggestion to those who see: Use your eyes as if tomorrow you would be blind. The same is true of other senses. Hear the songs of birds, as if you would be deaf tomorrow. Smell the flowers, as if tomorrow you could never smell again… But of all the senses, I’m sure that sight must be the most pleasant. (—Adapted from《Three Days to See》by Helen Keller) 18．What does the writer want to do during the three days? A．Read books to people on the first day. B．Go to the movies on the second day. C．Succeed in business on the third day. D．Have a wonderful dream every day. 19．What does the underlined word “permanent” in Paragraph 5 probably mean? A．bright B．silent C．endless D．frightening 20．Which is the best structure of the passage? A． B． C． D． 21．Which of the following sayings may the writer agree with? A．Time is what we want most, but what we use worst. B．Never leave until tomorrow what you can do today. C．Live every moment and be thankful for what you have. D．The future belongs to those who are preparing for it now. D Have you found out your SBTI type yet? Recently, the SBTI personality test, inspired by the MBTI assessment (评估), has drawn widespread attention. Designed only for entertainment purposes, it takes just minutes to finish and generates humorous labels such as monk, joker and ATM-er. Why are we drawn to personality tests? The answer lies in the deep-seated psychological need they promise to satisfy. The drive to understand oneself continues throughout life, as we constantly wonder who we are and where we belong. Personality tests are a simple way to get answers to these difficult questions. “Particularly with young people, they’re trying to form an identity, a sense of themselves and how they fit into the world, and how they differ from other people,” David Watson, a psychology professor from the University of Notre Dame, told Business Insider. Moreover, clear classification (分类) brings satisfaction. Humans tend to organize the world through grouping, and personality tests give us a new label beyond gender, birthplace or zodiac sign (星座). These tests also work as a social bond: They help people connect with like-minded peers (同龄人), express their inner selves and strengthen emotional ties in daily communication. Rigid (僵化的) personality labeling carries hidden risks. If we trap ourselves in a fixed type, we may limit personal growth and use labels to excuse our wrong behavior as “just ESTP things”. Moreover, personality can change over time, yet seeing ourselves purely through these categories blinds us to such changes. “While there’s nothing wrong with taking a personality test for fun, out of curiosity or even to explore aspects (方面) of your identity, it’s important not to get too attached to the labels—lest they become all that you are,” researchers Kelvin Wong and Chen Wenting wrote on The Conversation. 22．According to Watson, why do young people take personality tests? A．To justify their behavior. B．To pass the time and have fun. C．To explore the meaning of life scientifically. D．To gain a better understanding of themselves. 23．What social function do personality tests serve? A．They help people stand out more easily. B．They replace traditional identity markers. C．They strengthen ties within a community. D．They encourage people to challenge social norms. 24．What does the author imply in the last paragraph? A．Young people are the most affected by rigid labels. B．Fixed mindsets may hold back personal growth. C．Tests often fail to show one’s true character. D．Personality tests should be taken more seriously. 25．What is the author’s main purpose in the article? A．To promote a method. B．To make a comparison. C．To analyze a phenomenon. D．To correct misconceptions.   第三部分 信息还原（共5小题：每小题1分，满分5分） 请认真阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Similar to blogs, vlogs allow people to share their lives and thoughts.

When he was walking past a village, he saw many people doing their work busily in a large field. At that moment, a young man who sat by the road caught his attention. Andy wondered why the young man was free in a busy season. He was very curious, so he decided to go up and ask, “Have you grown your vegetables?” The young man shook his head and sighed, “Not yet! I am worrying about the weather. If there is a storm, my vegetables may be destroyed. If it is too cold, the seeds may not come out from the ground at all. If it is too hot, the seeds may even go bad in the soil.” Andy nodded his head and asked again, “Then, have you grown rice?” The young man thought for a while, and answered, “Not yet. I must be careful about the birds. They may eat the rice. I can’t take that risk.” “So, what have you grown then?” Andy asked in surprise. The farmer replied, “I haven’t grown anything. I am waiting for the best time! I must make sure that nothing is going to destroy my plants.” Of course, the best time never came. The young man didn’t get anything from the field at last. In our life, many people may have the same problem. Though they have dreams, they don’t take action because they worry too much about the things that haven’t come yet. They always worry about the difficulties in the future. However if they don’t do anything, how can they achieve their dreams? Always remember to keep an old saying in mind: Procrastination (拖延) is the thief of time. 54．Where did Andy see the young man? 55．Why didn’t the young man grow any vegetables or rice? 56．Which do you think is more important: waiting for the perfect moment or taking action now? Why? 第七部分 书面表达（共1题；满分25分） 57．假如你是李华，你的美国朋友Mike想要拜访亚洲的某个国家，请你根据下面提示，以“My favourite Asian country”为题，向他介绍一个你最喜欢的亚洲国家。 1. What is your favourite country? (location/capital) 2. What is special about it?
