67. Paragraph 1:
I had to say that my disappointment was growing little by little. I was wondering whether I could get a gift when my younger son ran to me, who was really kind enough to save my face. He asked me to admire his gift that he firmly believed was carefully chosen by Santa Claus. He said happily that he would share some of the gifts of his and allow me to choose one from them. I thanked him from the bottom of my heart, still feeling disappointed.
Paragraph 2:
Suddenly my wife walked up to me. It seemed that she had guessed how I felt. She asked me to look at the Christmas tree which was decorated with so many boxes. I think she was showing off her efforts on the decoration but she took off a small box and passed it to me smiling and saying it was for me. I opened it and saw a letter which read "We will never forget you. Merry Christmas!" Under the letter was a watch which was clicking with delight. I was moved with tears.

第一部分 单词练习(共两节,满分 30 分)
第一节 单句语法填空(共 10小题;每小题 1.5分,满分 15分)
1. 答案:settlement
考点:词性转换(动词→名词)
解析:空前peaceful(和平的)是形容词,形容词后面修饰名词。settle是动词,意为“解决;达成协议”,名词形式settlement,表示“和解,协议”。reach a settlement 达成协议。
句意:经过数月磋商,两国最终达成和平协议,结束了这场长期冲突。
2. 答案:convenience
考点:词性转换(形容词→名词)、固定搭配
解析:for是介词,介词后接名词。固定搭配for convenience,意为“为了方便起见”。convenient是形容词,名词形式是convenience。
句意:我建议你打太极时穿上舒适的衣服,方便活动。
3. 答案:representative
考点:词性转换(动词→形容词)、固定搭配
解析:be representative of 是固定短语,意思是“代表……”。represent是动词,意为“代表”;representative为形容词,作表语。
句意:这份公告代表公司的态度。
4. 答案:traditional
考点:词性转换(名词→形容词)
解析:本句为固定句型 It’s +形容词 + to do sth(做某事是……的),系动词is后面要用形容词作表语。tradition是名词“传统”,形容词形式traditional“传统的”。
句意:春节吃饺子是中国的传统。
5. 答案:to
考点:固定介词搭配
解析:entrance 相关固定搭配:entrance to…,表示“……的入口;进入……的资格”,to在这里是介词。
句意:令我们满意的是,我们可以免费进入游泳池和健身俱乐部。
6. 答案:of
考点:固定搭配lack of
解析:lack在这里是名词,lack of +名词,表示“缺少……”,在本句中lack of enough fundamentals...在句中作主语。注意区分:lack作动词时直接接宾语。
句意:缺少足够的基础知识和相关经验,使我难以胜任这份工作。
7. 答案:an
考点:冠词、固定搭配
解析:固定短语 an average of,意思是“平均……”。average是以元音音素开头的单词,所以用不定冠词an。
句意:据报道,父母每年平均在玩具上花费200美元。
8. 答案:on/upon
考点:固定搭配
解析:make an impression on/upon sb 是高频固定短语,意为“给某人留下印象”。on和upon在这里用法相同。
句意:出众的外表能给别人留下深刻印象。
9. 答案:promotion
考点:词性转换(动词→名词)
解析:形容词性物主代词his后面,必须接名词。promote是动词,意为“晋升;提升”;promotion是名词“晋升”。
句意:正是他长期缺勤耽误了他的晋升。
10. 答案:occasionally
考点:词性转换(形容词→副词)
解析:本空用来修饰谓语动词visits,修饰动词只能使用副词。occasional是形容词,“偶尔的”;副词occasionally,“偶尔”。
句意:因为他在偏远地区工作,他只能偶尔看望父母。
第二节 单词拼写(共 10小题;每小题 1.5分,满分 15分)

句意:她看到身后确实有个男人,正奇怪地打量她。
12. 答案:sorting
考点:介词后接动名词
解析:空格前面是介词of,介词后面的动词需要变为动名词doing形式。sort waste 垃圾分类。
句意:居民养成垃圾分类的习惯仍需要一些努力。
13. 答案:vehicles
考点:名词复数
解析:all(全部的)后面接可数名词复数。vehicle是可数名词,“车辆”,复数vehicles。
句意:红灯表示所有车辆必须停下。
14. 答案:marching
考点:非谓语:see sth/sb doing
解析:see +宾语 + doing,看见某物/某人正在做某事,强调动作正在进行。march“行进,前进”。

21. 细节理解题。根据题干中的Christmas可定位至Saturnalia部分,由其中的“The ancient Roman festival of Saturnalia is perhaps the most closely linked with the modern celebration of Christmas.”可知,古罗马的农神节可能是与现代圣诞节庆祝活动联系最紧密的节日,因此,农神节与圣诞节有关。故选B项。
22. 细节理解题。根据Soyal部分中的“Ceremonies and rituals include purification, dancing, and sometimes gift-giving.”、Saturnalia部分中的“There were games and feasts and gift-giving for several days.”、Midwinter in Antarctica部分中的“Festivities include special meals, films, and sometimes even handmade gifts.”及Dongzhi部分中的“Friends and family members occasionally express their blessings and care to each other through gifts.”可知,这四个节日的庆祝活动都有赠送礼物。
23. 推理判断题。根据文章标题Winter Solstice Celebrations From Around the World(来自世界各地的冬至庆祝活动)并结合全文内容可知,本文主要介绍了四个冬至庆祝活动,包括各个活动中的文化习俗,与文化有关。由此推知,文章最有可能出自报纸的文化版块。故选C项。

25.推理判断题。根据第三段内容可知,在作者的母亲成长的过程中,母亲经常让作者的祖母做抛饼,甚至到现在依旧如此,吃作者的祖母做的抛饼让母亲想起了童年的一些事情。由此可推知,作者的母亲非常喜欢抛饼。
26.细节理解题。根据第四段中的“The most important part... adding enough flour.”可知,准备抛饼时最具挑战性的部分是揉面团。
27.写作意图题。通读全文,尤其是根据最后一段内容可知,作者认为虽然孟加拉国是一个鲜为人知的亚洲国家,但通过像作者祖母这样的人,孟加拉国的文化和传统将继续延续下去,即作者写这篇文章的目的是将家乡的文化延续下去。

29.推理判断题。根据第四段内容可知,让孩子成为节日的核心部分不仅有助于培养积极的身份认同感,还能通过仪式、本土装饰、食物等保持文化的延续性。因此,孩子应该成为节日的核心部分是因为他们必须知道自己的身份。故选C项。

D
32~35. 【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了中国的传统节日春节的习俗,如新年禁忌、除夕夜团圆饭、红包、舞龙表演等。
32.词义猜测题。根据第一段最后两句可知,在中国农历新年的15天里,每个人都应该避免做一些不应该做的事情。剪头发、吵架、骂人、说不吉利的话、用剪刀或刀和打碎东西都是不被允许做的事情。由此可推断,taboos意为“禁忌的事情”。故选B。
33.推理判断题。根据第二段第一句中的“The New Year’s Eve meal is still the most important of the year for Chinese families”可知,对于中国家庭来说,年夜饭仍然是一年中最重要的。由此可推断,中国人很重视年夜饭。故选C。

第二节 七选五(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)
36~40. 【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了关于二十四节气之一的大暑的一些习俗。
36.根据上文可知,今年的大暑开始于7月22日,结束于8月6日。大暑期间,阳光、高温和强降雨是很常见的。根据下文小标题“Sending the Major Heat ship (送大暑船)”、“Cricket (蟋蟀) fighting (斗蟋蟀)”、“Eating litchi (吃荔枝)”和“Eating grass jelly (吃仙草冻)”可知,下文要介绍关于大暑的一些习俗。G项“然而,关于大暑,有些事情你可能不知道”承上启下。故选G。
37.根据上文可知,50多名渔民轮流抬着船走过街道;根据下文可知,这些活动结束后,船会被拉出渔港,并在海上焚烧,这意味着祈求丰收和健康。因此,A项“鼓声响起,烟花点燃”是一种庆祝活动,承上启下,符合语境。故选A。
38.根据下文可知,可以在乡间的田野里找到蟋蟀。因此空格处应该是介绍蟋蟀这种昆虫,且要用crickets作后面定语从句的先行词,F项“大暑是蟋蟀数量最多的时节”符合语境。故选F。
39.根据上文可知,荔枝是一种香甜可口的水果,含有丰富的维生素;根据下文可知,据说大暑时节的荔枝和人参一样有营养。空格处应该说人们怎么吃荔枝,D项“人们通常先把它放在冷井水里,然后才吃”承上启下,符合语境。故选D。

2. strangers陌生人;teachers教师;adults成年人;teenagers青少年。根据下文“discussing something beyond our comprehension, we kids would play hide-and-seek”可知,小孩子在玩捉迷藏,而大人们则在讨论他们不理解的事情。
3. symbol象征;schedule日程表;decoration装饰;ceremony仪式。根据上文“When I was still little, my entire family would 41 on almost every traditional festival to have dinner.”可知,当作者还小的时候,几乎每个传统节日全家都会聚在一起吃晚饭,说明圆桌是家人团聚的象征。
44. argument争论;occupation职业;operation操作;attachment依恋。根据上文“The most affectionate memory of my childhood is about a round table.”可知,作者童年时代最深情的记忆是与圆桌有关的,所以圆桌代表着对家人的依恋之情。
45. round圆的;new新的;long长的;square正方形的。根据上文“The most affectionate memory of my childhood is about a round table.”和“The round table is a 43 of a reunion of our families”可知,作者说的是圆桌。
46. dreams梦想;negotiations协商;secrets秘密;experiments实验。根据下文between business partners可知,商业伙伴之间的协商也能在圆桌上实现。
47. Obviously显然;Moreover此外;Consequently因此;Instead代替。根据下文“I start to wonder what this round table is to us”可知,作者开始想知道圆桌对我们来说意味着什么,这是承接上文的“圆桌可以成就一对新人走向婚姻殿堂,可以实现商业伙伴之间的协商”,前后为因果关系。
48. explore探索;expand扩大;clarify澄清;unfold展开。根据上文“I start to wonder what this round table is to us”可知,圆桌的真正意义展现在了作者面前。
49. keep保持;change变化;sell出售;display展示。根据下文“but the sensation behind it remains the same”可知,圆桌背后的情感是一样的,but表示转折,说明餐桌上的食物可能会随着时间而变化。

53.forces强迫;assists协助;reminds提醒;drives驱使。根据上文“In less than two weeks before the Spring Festival, a(n) 52 epic migration would take place in China.”和下文sustaining Chinese civilization for thousands of years可知,维持了数千年的中华文明的力量也在驱使人们回家过年。
54.caring about关心;looking for寻找;figuring out弄清楚;making up组成。根据下文running to the round table可知,中国人每年要奔向圆桌以求团聚,因此就要寻找那个圆桌。
55. adapt改编;apply应用;belong属于;turn转弯。根据下文“The round table is and will always be a symbol of the Chinese sensation.”可知,圆桌一直是也将永远是中国情感的象征,圆桌让中国人有归属感,我们“属于”那张圆桌。
第二节:语篇语法填空(10个小题;每小题1.5分,满分15分)
56-65【语篇导读】本文是记叙文,主要讲述了纽约一家社区文化中心给华裔后代传授舞狮的故事。
56.考查定语从句。分析句子结构可知,空处引导定语从句,先行词the Community Cultural Center表示地点,且定语从句中缺少地点状语,故用关系副词where引导。
57.考查非谓语动词。名词a way后常接动词不定式做定语,表示“……的方式”,且逻辑主语them与connect为主动关系,故用to connect。
58.考查副词。此处需要修饰形容词demanding,说明要求高的方面是在“体力上”,故用形容词physical的副词形式physically。
59.考查名词。并列连词and连接两个名词性成分做宾语,与strength并列,故需将动词cooperate变为其名词形式cooperation。
60.考查连词。此处body-stretching exercises与martial arts training为并列成分,共同做begin with的宾语,故用并列连词and连接。
61.考查冠词。此处首次提及art form这一可数名词单数,表示泛指;且male-dominated的发音以辅音音素开头,故用不定冠词a。
62.考查动词的时态和主谓一致。本句描述中心的一般性职能,应用一般现在时;主语The Community Cultural Center为单数,故谓语动词用第三人称单数形式teaches。
63.考查名词复数。根据谓语动词offer为原形及下文rituals可知,此处应为复数概念,故用复数形式ceremonies。
64.考查名词所有格。名词generation与connection之间存在所属关系,且前有the younger修饰,故需用名词所有格形式generationˈs。
65.考查非谓语动词。连词while后接动词-ing形式做伴随状语,表示与主句谓语deepen同时发生的动作,逻辑主语为These rituals,故用现在分词enhancing。

Soyal is the winter solstice celebration of the Hopi Indians of northern Arizona. Ceremonies and rituals include purification, dancing, and sometimes gift-giving. On the day, Hopi welcome the protective spirits from the mountains.
Saturnalia
The ancient Roman festival of Saturnalia is perhaps the most closely linked with the modern celebration of Christmas. This festival happened around the time of the winter solstice and celebrated the end of the planting season. There were games and feasts and gift-giving for several days.
Midwinter in Antarctica
Even Antarctica gets its share of winter solstice celebration, thanks to the researchers staying there over the long, dangerously cold season. While those of us in the Northern Hemisphere are enjoying the most daylight hours, in the Southern Hemisphere they are celebrating Midwinter. Festivities include special meals, films, and sometimes even handmade gifts.
Dongzhi
Dongzhi, the “arrival of winter”, is an important festival in China. It is a time for family to get together and celebrate the year they have had. The holiday generally falls between the 21st and 23rd of December. It is thought to have started as an end-of-harvest festival. Special foods, such as tangyuan and jiaozi, are enjoyed. Friends and family members occasionally express their blessings and care to each other through gifts.

In May, we celebrate Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month, or AAPI Heritage Month. My family comes from Bangladesh, a country in South Asia. A few decades ago, members of my family moved to the United States. They lived in New Jersey, where some other relatives had already lived.
While family members have got used to American ways of life, the Bangladeshi culture is still alive through our food and culture. Traditionally in May, we go to my grandmotherˈs house and make homemade parathas, fresh mint tea, aloo tikki, khichri, and phirni, all of which are delicious Bangladeshi foods.
When my mother was growing up, she often asked my grandma to make parathas. “Even now, I ask my mum to make parathas. Having my mumˈs parathas reminds me of something from my childhood.” she says.
Often, we start our morning by picking fresh mint from my grandmaˈs garden, which we later use in our tea. We then collect what is needed for—the star of our breakfast, parathas. Some simple things include flour(面粉), water and salt. The most important part is to knead the dough(揉面团). Many things can go wrong, such as adding too much water or not adding enough flour. With practice, the end result is fried bread that is thin.
Shortly after our light breakfast, we prepare aloo tikki. It starts with mashing(捣碎)potatoes. My grandma often uses salt and lemon to make the potatoes taste better. Next, the potatoes are shaped into small round pieces and fried in oil. The final thing on our menu is phirni, a rice pudding. Itˈs the perfect way to end a Bangladeshi meal.
My grandmother moved to the U.S. as a teenager. Itˈs a gift to learn about her experiences and to learn from her about Bangladeshi culture. Although Bangladesh is a lesser-known Asian country, through people like my grandmother, Bangladeshi culture and traditions will continue.
24.How does the authorˈs family celebrate AAPI Heritage Month? ()
A. By cooking Bangladeshi dishes.
B. By having a meal with their friends at home.
C. By taking his grandmother out for a big meal.
D. By using something from their native land to cook.
25.What can we learn from the authorˈs motherˈs words? ()
A. She likes parathas very much. B. She misses her mum very much.
C. She is not good at cooking. D. She had a lonely childhood.
26.What is the most challenging part of preparing parathas? ()
A. Picking fresh mint. B. Kneading the dough.
C. Frying bread. D. Mashing the potatoes.
27.What is the authorˈs aim by writing the passage? ()
A. To keep all close people in mind.
B. To celebrate even small wins in life.
C. To keep hometown culture alive.
D. To arrange happy family time often.

Different cultures have various festivals, but the joy and eagerness are the same. For us adults, celebrations are a way of taking a break from heavy work, reliving past memories, and keeping traditions alive, but what about children?
Well, for our kids, this is the perfect time to learn and enrich their lives with knowledge. At festivals, I remember, that I introduced the value and importance of personal connections and cultural treasures to my kids while they were having fun. Child experts strongly suggest that parents tell their kids various rituals(仪式)of the festivals and have them join in celebratory activities.
I think every festival has a rich backstory, and every story has plenty of lessons and values to teach. Besides, historical and geographical backgrounds connected with festivals give reasons why we celebrate festivals with specific rituals.
Kids need to have a deep-rooted understanding of the identity(身份)of their culture and traditions. This not only helps in developing a positive sense of identity but also pushes kids to connect with their cultures through rituals, native decorations, food, etc, to keep continuity over generations. Thus, parents should make kids a central part of all festivals.
It is no secret that gifts bring joy and excitement to children. Every time I give gifts to my kids, I find the gifts excite their senses and make them feel valued. I must make my kids believe that their family care about their interests and desires. Thus, gifting is a meaningful way to express feelings to kids. Whatˈs more, the act of giving and receiving gifts helps develop feelings of care and kindness.
28.What do festivals mean for children?
A. A perfect time to have a rest. B. A chance to increase knowledge.
C. A memory of their old days. D. An effort to protect traditions.
29.Why should kids be “a central part of all festivals”?
A. They enjoy festival backstories. B. They love history and geography.
C. They must know who they are. D. They can bring much happiness.
30.Who are the intended readers of the text?
A. Kids. B. Teachers. C. Headmasters. D. Parents.
31.What is a suitable title for the passage?
A. Importance of Festivals in Kidsˈ Life
B. Parentsˈ Role in Celebrating Festivals
C. Benefits of Festival Rituals to Kids
D. Principles of Kidsˈ Love for Festivals

The Chinese New Year is all about starting things anew. So, in the week leading up to the festival, people do a thorough cleaning of their home to get rid of bad luck. This should all be done before New Year’s Day though, as showering is not allowed on the day! At the same time, it is also not allowed to sweep or throw out garbage until the 5th day of the festival. This is because people don’t want to wash out the good luck! There are also a few no-no’s during the Chinese New Year, which everyone should avoid doing for the 15 days. It is a taboo to get a haircut, argue, swear, say unlucky words, use scissors or knives and break things.

Usually, these red envelopes are gifted by established married couples to their single friends, or from elders to the children. Their purpose is to transfer (转移) the fortune and luck from the givers to the receivers.
During the festivities, there are dragon dance performances, as the creature is believed to bring good luck, good fortune, and prosperity (繁荣).

Several years ago, I was living in New York and working for an airline, so I never got back home for Christmas. My Christmas was happy too with some other colleagues around. But in my heart, I was sad because I couldn't stay with my family. Sometimes my colleagues would say our Christmas was filled with tears. But this Christmas was different. I was lucky. I had the whole day off, which meant I could stay with my family on Christmas Eve.
When Christmas morning came, I awoke to a small hand feeling my face. "Dad, Merry Christmas!" was all my younger son had time to say. He seemed to be racing against time. I knew he was hunting for gifts with his brother eagerly. I got downstairs just to see the two little boys' faces as they looked at the pocket rockets Santa Claus had left them. I realized that the real Christmas was for the children who had deep belief in the amazing power of Santa Claus. At first, their fingers went almost shyly over their toys. When their inspection(检阅) had been completed, the two boys ensured that the gifts were really delivered by Santa Claus and they pulled everything into the center of the living room.
Delight flooded the room. As their mother began giving out gifts, I smiled to myself, wondering how my unexpected gifts this year would be received. With so many Christmases spent outside, I had prepared so many gifts for my children and together with my wife I hid them in several secret places. But the children were excellent detectives(侦探) and they found all of them. They were happily opening packages, thanking considerate Santa Claus for his kindness and ability to know their desires. But I had not received a single one. I knew they had forgotten my existence(存在), for I hadn't been with them during Christmas these years.
