I heard it one evening in the Qwabi Private Game Reserve, where the Waterberg mountains spill outward like an unfolding story. We’d just watched a remarkable standoff: lionesses baring teeth and muscle to a dominant male who’d wandered too close. The roars came first, then a sudden, striking charge. Paws (爪子) flew and their breath hung in the air over the grasslands, before the male eventually turned and dropped to the ground in frustration. It was pure theatre, to which we had front-row seats. The Waterberg is a place of quiet success. A UNESCO Biosphere Reserve since 2001, this 654,000-hectare region in Limpopo Province is one of South Africa’s best-kept safari secrets. It’s a region where conservation feels like a lived value. Thanks to collaboration between private reserves, landowners and anti-poaching units, the region has recorded some of the lowest rhino (犀牛) poaching statistics in the country. Head guide Damien Fourie was extensive in his knowledge and boyishly excited about every sight and sound. After careful tracking, we came across a group of lions resting beneath a thorn tree, their bodies exposed only by the swinging of a tail. And when we spotted a two-week-old white rhino walking unsteadily beside its mother later on the drive, he was as thrilled as we were. Still, even if you see nothing but sky and silence, the Waterberg delivers. On our final morning, after a night of rain, I skipped the game drive in favor of a coffee on the deck. I watched the steam rise as the morning sun warmed the valley. The end of my time in the bush came with no distant lion roars, no whispering packs, no newborn rhino. Not every safari needs a drumroll ending. Sometimes, a slow, misty morning and a quiet deck tick all the boxes. 24．(2.5分)What did the author witness about the lions? A．Their playful race. B．Their staged show. C．Their fierce conflict. D．Their hunting attempt. 25．(2.5分)What do the underlined words “a lived value” in paragraph 3 mean? A．A key concept. B．A public image. C．An ignored idea. D．An active practice. 26．(2.5分)Which of the following best describes Damien? A．Calm and distant. B．Informed and passionate. C．Energetic and creative. D．Disciplined and ambitious. 27．(2.5分)What does the author think of the safari? A．It displayed racial harmony. B．It had a disappointing ending. C．It revealed why she loved nature. D．It satisfied what she could hope for. （本题10分）Black history museums and historic sites are thriving or growing forcefully across the South. They’re riding a wave of interest in African-American history that’s made a stunning success of the 2-year-old National Museum of African American History and Culture in the nation’s capital. Attendance at some large museums is decreasing. Twelve of the 20 biggest U. S. museums saw flat or lower attendance from 2016 to 2017. In comparison, various activities involving black history stand out. In Church Creek, Maryland, for example, a 1-year-old, 17-acre state-national park memorializes the place where Harriet Tubman was born and enslaved. Tubman escaped slavery and later helped many others escape, too. The park was expected to draw 75,000 visitors its first year. However, it attracted 100,000. History professionals cite several factors for the phenomenon. The Black Lives Matter movement, conflicts over Confederate monuments, protests by NFL players and last year’s violence in Charlottesville, Virginia, also have made a difference. These activities have caused more Americans to consider how race affects them. When the national museum opened, “We thought that might have the impact of gaining the public spotlight. Just the opposite,” said Moore, president of Charleston, South Carolina’s International African American Museum. It has jump-started more presentations of black history. “There are art museums everywhere, and there are history museums everywhere. I see it as really healthy that there will be African-American museums everywhere.” States also are spending money to promote civil rights tourism. 14 Southern state tourism agencies in January launched a website detailing stops on what they are calling the U.S. Civil Rights Trail. The South Carolina African American Heritage Commission last year created a “Green Book” mobile app. It includes 300 historic African-American sites in South Carolina. “Cultural tourism, or heritage tourism, is one of the fastest growing markets in the country,” said Jannie Harriot. She is the vice chairperson of the South Carolina commission. “(But) nothing that we do is limited to black people. Sometimes I think white people are more interested in our history than we are.” 28．(2.5分)Why does the author mention the example state-national park in paragraph 3? A．To reflect the development of the park. B．To introduce the life of Tubman. C．To present the attraction of large museums. D．To show the increased interest in black history. 29．(2.5分)What is the Moore’s attitude to the open of national museum? A．Favorable. B．Indifferent. C．Doubtful. D．Unclear. 30．(2.5分)What can we learn about civil rights tourism? A．An increased amount of money has mainly helped to preserve historic sites. B．Actions have been taken only by black people to promote civil rights tourism. C．Efforts have been made to increase tourism and attention to historic sites. D．Commission has done nothing to arouse the interest of black people in history. 31．(2.5分)Which of the following is a suitable title for the passage? A．Activities Involving Black History Standing Out. B．Reasons for the Increased Interest in Black History. C．The Increased Awareness of Preserving Black History. D．Black History Tourism and Museums Attracting Attention. （本题10分）Villages have existed in England since the Roman period. There were free communities, but most were of dependent farmers. Life was hard, even when the country did not suffer from deadly diseases and hunger. The majority of England’s population was rural (乡村) until the 18th century, when a great shift towards towns and cities began. By the 19th century, people started to reexamine village life, longing to experience the way of living that was already disappearing. Since 1945, the past has accelerated (加速) away from people at a faster rate than ever before. In 1969, in his landmark Akenfield: Portrait of an English Village, the famous English writer Ronald Blythe offered a realistic description detailing the end of the old English village. But the great English historian W. G. Hoskins suggested that the whole history of the country could be told through one village. Inspired by his view, Michael Wood filmed the TV series Michael Wood’s Story of England in the village of Kibworth. And now time has moved on again. In some of the English villages, big farms have replaced smallholders (小农场主); private houses have become spa hotels. Despite these changes, the village still stands for the idea of community, a word more and more in use now as we search for our commonality (共性). It is a place of 500 or 1,000 people, where everyone knows each other and each other’s business, but always helps out in an emergency; a place where one can still feel connected and hold that dream of a harmonious vision of society. Some of the English people feel concerned about immigrants, but their villages always have newcomers, just like Saxons, Angles, Normans, Africans and Bangladeshis in history. That is who they are. In reality, English villages have been deeply shaped more by inequality and class conflict than those newcomers. So, as Hoskins suggested, if you were to learn about England, why not choose an English village, such as Handsworth near Birmingham? It was home to the Lunar Society of Matthew Boulton, as well as to musicians like Stevie Winwood and Joan Armatrading. Wouldn’t that be fun? 32．(2.5分)What was early rural life like in England? A．It was far from easy. B．It had been destroyed by cities. C．All farmers worked together. D．Villagers suffered from various diseases. 33．(2.5分)What led to the filming of the England story TV series? A．Post-war social changes. B．Hoskins’ idea about one village. C．The growth of small farms. D．The success of Blythe’s Akenfield. 34．(2.5分)Why do villages still matter today? A．They contribute to population growth. B．They have become a key source of income. C．They keep important ancient Roman buildings. D．They provide a sense of belonging and togetherness. 35．(2.5分)Which of the following is the best title for the passage? A．The Great Shift from Rural to Urban B．Why Villages Are Dying Out C．A Window into England: The Village D．The History of European Villages （本题12.5分）If you’ve ever been to Rome, it’s likely that you stopped to be amazed at the Pantheon, Italy’s most - visited cultural site. The ancient building’s large dome (穹顶) is immediately recognizable. And if you haven’t been to Rome yet, the Pantheon must be a main destination on your wish list. 36(2.5分) Soon, however, the experience will include one more step: paying an entrance fee. In the past, access to the Pantheon has always been free. Roman officials suggested a €2 entrance fee several years ago. 37(2.5分) Some church and culture officials signed the new policy (政策) in March 2023. Now, it’s reported that entrance to the famous historic site will cost €5. The new policy comes with a few exceptions. Roman residents will still be able to enter the site for free. So will anyone under age 18, as well as teachers keeping school groups company. 38(2.5分) The Pantheon was originally built around 27 BCE. Then it was rebuilt around 118 to 128 CE. In 609 CE, it became a church called the Basilica of Saint Mary and the Martyrs. 39(2.5分) This was partly because it was built using ancient Rome’s high-quality materials. 40(2.5分) It stands at 142 feet tall - which is nearly as tall as the Statue of Liberty. How the structure was built is still somewhat of a mystery, and the exact method of construction has never been determined. A．Later the suggestion was put on hold. B．But some residents agree with the idea. C．Tourists under 25 will only have to pay €2 to enter. D．Every year, millions of tourists explore the structure. E．The Pantheon is still regularly used for religious events. F．For many years, the Pantheon had the largest dome of its kind. G．Throughout its history, it’s proved to be an amazingly strong building. 三、完形填空 （本题15分）It is February 2020, and it’s almost as cold inside as out. By the time I have finished 41 and walked out, it’s 9 p.m. It’s not hard to find my group because they’re already waiting, wearing 42 black polar boots the size of a trunk.

The aurora is a beautiful, though hard to 47 , phenomenon, occurring year-round and tourism runs on expectations stimulated by travel websites. However, thousands of enhanced photos of emerald-green and ruby-red arcs (弧线) make false 48 . So I’ve tried to keep my own expectations 49 .

I’ve discovered China is a country 57(1.5分) deserts, mountains, forests and tundra are best explored on the backs of yaks, horses, elephants and ostriches. While too much of the world misunderstands too much of China, nobody in the world understands all of it — or even close to enough of it — 58(1.5分) (include) even Chinese people. I was particularly honored when many overseas friends said my latest book, A Global Nomad’s Journey Through China’s Poverty Alleviation — which goes beyond policy technicalities (技术性细节) to tell the 59(1.5分) (person) stories of how measures have transformed lives across remote corners of the country — 60(1.5分) (change) their views on China for the better. But I was 61(1.5分) (especial) delighted when many Chinese readers said that they had learned about their own country from reading this book, 62(1.5分) (write) by a foreigner. That was a less-expected honor. While we initially released the book 63(1.5分) English and Chinese, I was delighted that an Italian publisher asked to translate and publish it and 64(1.5分) a Nepalese publisher followed suit, bringing this story to more people in more languages. That’s because, as Nelson Mandela once said, “If you talk to a man in a language he understands, that goes to his head. If you talk to him in his own language, that goes to 65(1.5分) heart.” 五、书信写作 66．（本题15分）假定你是李华。你校的英文播客TeenTalk正在征稿，邀请同学们谈谈旅行前是否应提前做好详尽攻略。请你写一篇短文投稿，内容包括： 1．你的观点；2．阐述理由。 注意：1．写作词数应为80词左右；2．请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Should We Make Detailed Travel Plans Before Trips? ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 六、书面表达 67．（本题25分）阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。 Having been working hard for a long time, I decided to treat myself to a solo (独自的) trip to Türkiye. It felt like the perfect way to mark the end of one chapter and the beginning of another. The first few days were magical — walking through busy markets, admiring ancient architecture, and enjoying delicious local cuisine. Istanbul, the largest city of Türkiye, offers unforgettable beauty at every turn. I started my day watching the Hagia Sophia, one of Istanbul’s most impressive landmarks, shining in the sunlight. I ended my day drinking the local tea. Everything was going smoothly, until a sudden announcement from the airport made my plans in chaos — my flight to the next stop was cancelled. My heart sank. It wasn’t just the next stop; it was an important, previously planned part of my trip. A non-refundable, luxurious cave hotel awaited me. I’d prepaid for a private car service that was expecting me tonight, and crucially, tomorrow’s prebooked hot air balloon ride and guided valley tours demanded an early start. Panic seized me. Anxiously checking alternatives, I found only one flight arriving late the next afternoon. Standing alone at the airport, holding my useless boarding pass, I was in despair (绝望). My heart ached at the thought of losing hundreds of euros. Tears welled up in my eyes. At that moment, my travel agency was unreachable. My only hope rested with the driver, Mr. Demir, who was the same age as my dad and supposedly waiting at the airport of my next stop. Had the car company received the email and notified him of the cancellation? Would he check? Would he care enough to adjust without charging me a lot of money? Hours passed as I rearranged my flight for the next morning. Extremely tired and overwhelmed (不知所措的), I boarded the rescheduled flight, unsure of what to expect. Eventually, I landed, but I felt like going into continued uncertainty. 注意： （1）续写词数应为150个左右； （2）请按如下格式作答。 Suddenly, a loud voice cut through the noise: “Miss Doros? From Athens?” ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ On the way to the hotel, I appreciated what Mr. Demir had done for me again. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 2 / 2 2 / 2 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 高中英语单元测试 —— Unit 4 Journey Across a Vast Land 学校:___________姓名：___________班级：___________考号：___________ 一、听力选择题 1．（本题1.5分）What made the woman surprised?

W: That’s a big change. I’m curious about which country landed the second spot on the list. M: Denmark. The country’s high ranking is due in part to its level of equality and sense of responsibility for social welfare, according to the country’s official website. W: That makes sense. These two factors are closely linked to happiness. （本题6分）听下面一段独白，回答以下小题。 17．(1.5分)What will the Chinese guests do? A．Visit a company. B．Have a meeting.

I heard it one evening in the Qwabi Private Game Reserve, where the Waterberg mountains spill outward like an unfolding story. We’d just watched a remarkable standoff: lionesses baring teeth and muscle to a dominant male who’d wandered too close. The roars came first, then a sudden, striking charge. Paws (爪子) flew and their breath hung in the air over the grasslands, before the male eventually turned and dropped to the ground in frustration. It was pure theatre, to which we had front-row seats. The Waterberg is a place of quiet success. A UNESCO Biosphere Reserve since 2001, this 654,000-hectare region in Limpopo Province is one of South Africa’s best-kept safari secrets. It’s a region where conservation feels like a lived value. Thanks to collaboration between private reserves, landowners and anti-poaching units, the region has recorded some of the lowest rhino (犀牛) poaching statistics in the country. Head guide Damien Fourie was extensive in his knowledge and boyishly excited about every sight and sound. After careful tracking, we came across a group of lions resting beneath a thorn tree, their bodies exposed only by the swinging of a tail. And when we spotted a two-week-old white rhino walking unsteadily beside its mother later on the drive, he was as thrilled as we were. Still, even if you see nothing but sky and silence, the Waterberg delivers. On our final morning, after a night of rain, I skipped the game drive in favor of a coffee on the deck. I watched the steam rise as the morning sun warmed the valley. The end of my time in the bush came with no distant lion roars, no whispering packs, no newborn rhino. Not every safari needs a drumroll ending. Sometimes, a slow, misty morning and a quiet deck tick all the boxes. 24．(2.5分)What did the author witness about the lions? A．Their playful race. B．Their staged show. C．Their fierce conflict. D．Their hunting attempt. 25．(2.5分)What do the underlined words “a lived value” in paragraph 3 mean? A．A key concept. B．A public image. C．An ignored idea. D．An active practice. 26．(2.5分)Which of the following best describes Damien? A．Calm and distant. B．Informed and passionate. C．Energetic and creative. D．Disciplined and ambitious. 27．(2.5分)What does the author think of the safari? A．It displayed racial harmony. B．It had a disappointing ending. C．It revealed why she loved nature. D．It satisfied what she could hope for. 【答案】24．C 25．D 26．B 27．D 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。作者记述了在南非Waterberg私人保护区观兽旅行的经历。 【详解】24．细节理解题。根据文章第二段中的“We’d just watched a remarkable standoff: lionesses baring teeth and muscle to a dominant male who’d wandered too close. The roars came first, then a sudden, striking charge. Paws flew and their breath hung in the air over the grasslands, before the male eventually turned and dropped to the ground in frustration.(我们刚刚目睹了一场引人注目的对峙：母狮们露出牙齿和肌肉，对一头靠得太近的占主导地位的雄狮。先是咆哮声，然后是突然而猛烈的冲锋。狮爪飞舞，它们的呼吸在草原上方的空气中飘荡，最后雄狮沮丧地转身倒在地上)”可知，作者目睹了狮子之间激烈的冲突。故选C项。 25．词句猜测题。根据文章第三段中的“Thanks to collaboration between private reserves, landowners and anti-poaching units, the region has recorded some of the lowest rhino poaching statistics in the country.(由于私人保护区、土地所有者和反偷猎单位之间的合作，该地区记录了该国最低的犀牛偷猎数据)”可知，该地区在保护野生动物方面取得了显著成效，说明保护在该地区是一种积极的实践。由此可推测，a lived value意为“一种积极的实践”，D选项“An active practice.( 一种积极的实践)”符合题意。故选D项。 26．推理判断题。根据文章第四段中的“Head guide Damien Fourie was extensive in his knowledge and boyishly excited about every sight and sound.(首席导游Damien Fourie知识渊博，对每一处景象和声音都像孩子一样兴奋)”以及“And when we spotted a two-week-old white rhino walking unsteadily beside its mother later on the drive, he was as thrilled as we were.( 后来在驱车途中，我们看到一头两周大的白犀牛摇摇晃晃地跟在它的母亲身旁走着。那一刻，它和我们一样兴奋不已)”可知，Damien Fourie知识渊博，对每一次的景象和声音都充满热情，由此可推测出他是一个知识丰富且充满激情的人。故选B项。 27．推理判断题。根据文章最后一段中的“Not every safari needs a drumroll ending. Sometimes, a slow, misty morning and a quiet deck tick all the boxes.(并不是每一次观兽旅行都需要一个激动人心的结局。有时候，一个缓慢、雾蒙蒙的早晨和一个安静的甲板就足够了)”可知，作者认为观兽旅行并不总是需要激动人心的结局，有时一个安静、缓慢的早晨和甲板也能满足她的期望。由此可推测出作者认为这次观兽旅行满足了她的期望。D选项“It satisfied what she could hope for.( 这满足了她所期望的一切。)”符合题意。故选D项。 （本题10分）Black history museums and historic sites are thriving or growing forcefully across the South. They’re riding a wave of interest in African-American history that’s made a stunning success of the 2-year-old National Museum of African American History and Culture in the nation’s capital. Attendance at some large museums is decreasing. Twelve of the 20 biggest U. S. museums saw flat or lower attendance from 2016 to 2017. In comparison, various activities involving black history stand out. In Church Creek, Maryland, for example, a 1-year-old, 17-acre state-national park memorializes the place where Harriet Tubman was born and enslaved. Tubman escaped slavery and later helped many others escape, too. The park was expected to draw 75,000 visitors its first year. However, it attracted 100,000. History professionals cite several factors for the phenomenon. The Black Lives Matter movement, conflicts over Confederate monuments, protests by NFL players and last year’s violence in Charlottesville, Virginia, also have made a difference. These activities have caused more Americans to consider how race affects them. When the national museum opened, “We thought that might have the impact of gaining the public spotlight. Just the opposite,” said Moore, president of Charleston, South Carolina’s International African American Museum. It has jump-started more presentations of black history. “There are art museums everywhere, and there are history museums everywhere. I see it as really healthy that there will be African-American museums everywhere.” States also are spending money to promote civil rights tourism. 14 Southern state tourism agencies in January launched a website detailing stops on what they are calling the U.S. Civil Rights Trail. The South Carolina African American Heritage Commission last year created a “Green Book” mobile app. It includes 300 historic African-American sites in South Carolina. “Cultural tourism, or heritage tourism, is one of the fastest growing markets in the country,” said Jannie Harriot. She is the vice chairperson of the South Carolina commission. “(But) nothing that we do is limited to black people. Sometimes I think white people are more interested in our history than we are.” 28．(2.5分)Why does the author mention the example state-national park in paragraph 3? A．To reflect the development of the park. B．To introduce the life of Tubman. C．To present the attraction of large museums. D．To show the increased interest in black history. 29．(2.5分)What is the Moore’s attitude to the open of national museum? A．Favorable. B．Indifferent. C．Doubtful. D．Unclear. 30．(2.5分)What can we learn about civil rights tourism? A．An increased amount of money has mainly helped to preserve historic sites. B．Actions have been taken only by black people to promote civil rights tourism. C．Efforts have been made to increase tourism and attention to historic sites. D．Commission has done nothing to arouse the interest of black people in history. 31．(2.5分)Which of the following is a suitable title for the passage? A．Activities Involving Black History Standing Out. B．Reasons for the Increased Interest in Black History. C．The Increased Awareness of Preserving Black History. D．Black History Tourism and Museums Attracting Attention. 【答案】28．D 29．A 30．C 31．D 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要描写具有吸引力的黑人历史博物馆和历史遗址。 【详解】28．推理判断题。根据第三段“In Church Creek, Maryland, for example, a 1-year-old, 17-acre state-national park memorializes the place where Harriet Tubman was born and enslaved.(在马里兰州的Church Creek，一座占地17英亩的1岁州立公园纪念哈里特·塔布曼出生和奴役的地方。) ”以及“The park was expected to draw 75,000 visitors its first year. However, it attracted 100,000. ( 公园第一年预计将吸引75000名游客。然而，它吸引了10万人。)”可知，作者举例子是为了说明人们对黑人历史关注热度持续上升。故选D。 29．推理判断题。根据倒数第三段“We thought that might have the impact of gaining the public spotlight. Just the opposite(我们认为这可能会引起公众的关注。恰恰相反。)”以及“ It has jump-started more presentations of black history. (它开始了更多关于黑人历史的介绍。)”和“There are art museums everywhere, and there are history museums everywhere. I see it as really healthy that there will be African-American museums everywhere.(到处都是艺术博物馆，到处都是历史博物馆。我认为到处都会有非裔美国人的博物馆，这真的很健康。)”可知，Moore支持国家博物馆关于黑人历史的介绍。A项“支持的”符合题意。故选A。 30．推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“States also are spending money to promote civil rights tourism. 14 Southern state tourism agencies in January launched a website detailing stops on what they are calling the U.S. Civil Rights Trail. The South Carolina African American Heritage Commission last year created a “Green Book” mobile app. It includes 300 historic African-American sites in South Carolina.( 各州也在花钱促进民权旅游。1月份，14家南部州旅游机构推出了一个网站，详细介绍了他们所称的“美国民权之路”的停靠点。南卡罗来纳州非裔美国人遗产委员会去年开发了一款“绿皮书”移动应用程序。它包括南卡罗来纳州300处历史悠久的非裔美国人遗址。)”可知，各地都在努力地推广旅游业和对历史遗址的关注。故选C。 31．主旨大意题。根据第一段“Black history museums and historic sites are thriving or growing forcefully across the South. They’re riding a wave of interest in African-American history that’s made a stunning success of the 2-year-old National Museum of African American History and Culture in the nation’s capital. (黑人历史博物馆和历史遗迹在整个南方正在蓬勃发展。乘着对非裔美国人历史的兴趣浪潮，在首都成立两年的非裔美国人历史和文化国家博物馆取得了惊人的成功。)”以及下文内容可知，这篇文章主要讲述具有吸引力的黑人历史博物馆和历史遗址，因此推断D项“黑人历史旅游和博物馆吸引了关注。”为最佳标题。故选D。 （本题10分）Villages have existed in England since the Roman period. There were free communities, but most were of dependent farmers. Life was hard, even when the country did not suffer from deadly diseases and hunger. The majority of England’s population was rural (乡村) until the 18th century, when a great shift towards towns and cities began. By the 19th century, people started to reexamine village life, longing to experience the way of living that was already disappearing. Since 1945, the past has accelerated (加速) away from people at a faster rate than ever before. In 1969, in his landmark Akenfield: Portrait of an English Village, the famous English writer Ronald Blythe offered a realistic description detailing the end of the old English village. But the great English historian W. G. Hoskins suggested that the whole history of the country could be told through one village. Inspired by his view, Michael Wood filmed the TV series Michael Wood’s Story of England in the village of Kibworth. And now time has moved on again. In some of the English villages, big farms have replaced smallholders (小农场主); private houses have become spa hotels. Despite these changes, the village still stands for the idea of community, a word more and more in use now as we search for our commonality (共性). It is a place of 500 or 1,000 people, where everyone knows each other and each other’s business, but always helps out in an emergency; a place where one can still feel connected and hold that dream of a harmonious vision of society. Some of the English people feel concerned about immigrants, but their villages always have newcomers, just like Saxons, Angles, Normans, Africans and Bangladeshis in history. That is who they are. In reality, English villages have been deeply shaped more by inequality and class conflict than those newcomers. So, as Hoskins suggested, if you were to learn about England, why not choose an English village, such as Handsworth near Birmingham? It was home to the Lunar Society of Matthew Boulton, as well as to musicians like Stevie Winwood and Joan Armatrading. Wouldn’t that be fun? 32．(2.5分)What was early rural life like in England? A．It was far from easy. B．It had been destroyed by cities. C．All farmers worked together. D．Villagers suffered from various diseases. 33．(2.5分)What led to the filming of the England story TV series? A．Post-war social changes. B．Hoskins’ idea about one village. C．The growth of small farms. D．The success of Blythe’s Akenfield. 34．(2.5分)Why do villages still matter today? A．They contribute to population growth. B．They have become a key source of income. C．They keep important ancient Roman buildings. D．They provide a sense of belonging and togetherness. 35．(2.5分)Which of the following is the best title for the passage? A．The Great Shift from Rural to Urban B．Why Villages Are Dying Out C．A Window into England: The Village D．The History of European Villages 【答案】32．A 33．B 34．D 35．C 【导语】文章通过回顾英格兰村庄从古至今的历史变迁，指出村庄虽经历现代化改变，但依然作为社区和归属感的象征而存在，并强调村庄是理解英格兰的独特窗口。 【详解】32．细节理解题。根据第一段中“Life was hard, even when the country did not suffer from deadly diseases and hunger. (生活很艰难，即使在国家没有遭受致命疾病和饥饿的时候。)”可知，早期英格兰的乡村生活远非容易。 33．细节理解题。根据第二段中“But the great English historian W. G. Hoskins suggested that the whole history of the country could be told through one village. Inspired by his view, Michael Wood filmed the TV series Michael Wood’s Story of England in the village of Kibworth. (但伟大的英国历史学家W. G. Hoskins认为，整个国家的历史可以通过一个村庄来讲述。受到这一观点的启发，Michael Wood在基布沃思村拍摄了电视系列剧《Michael Wood的英格兰故事》。)”可知，Hoskins关于一个村庄的想法促成了这部片子的拍摄。 34．推理判断题。根据第三段中“Despite these changes, the village still stands for the idea of community, a word more and more in use now as we search for our commonality (共性). It is a place of 500 or 1,000 people, where everyone knows each other and each other’s business, but always helps out in an emergency; a place where one can still feel connected and hold that dream of a harmonious vision of society. (尽管经历了这些变化，这个村庄依然代表着社区的理念——一个如今在我们寻找共同点时越来越被使用的词语。这里住着五百到一千人，每个人彼此相识，了解彼此的事务，但在紧急时刻总能互相帮助；这是一个人们仍能感受到彼此联系的地方，也是怀揣着社会和谐愿景的梦想之地。)”可推知，村庄在今天依然重要的原因是它能给人们提供一种归属感和团结感。 35．主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第二段中“But the great English historian W. G. Hoskins suggested that the whole history of the country could be told through one village. Inspired by his view, Michael Wood filmed the TV series Michael Wood’s Story of England in the village of Kibworth. (但伟大的英国历史学家W. G. Hoskins认为，整个国家的历史可以通过一个村庄来讲述。)”可知，文章回顾了英国乡村的历史变迁，并在第二段和第五段反复强调了一个核心观点：整个英国的历史可以通过一个村庄来讲述，文章的主旨是将村庄作为了解英格兰的一扇窗户，所以“了解英格兰的窗口：村庄”最契合文章主旨，适合作为文章标题。 （本题12.5分）If you’ve ever been to Rome, it’s likely that you stopped to be amazed at the Pantheon, Italy’s most - visited cultural site. The ancient building’s large dome (穹顶) is immediately recognizable. And if you haven’t been to Rome yet, the Pantheon must be a main destination on your wish list. 36(2.5分) Soon, however, the experience will include one more step: paying an entrance fee. In the past, access to the Pantheon has always been free. Roman officials suggested a €2 entrance fee several years ago. 37(2.5分) Some church and culture officials signed the new policy (政策) in March 2023. Now, it’s reported that entrance to the famous historic site will cost €5. The new policy comes with a few exceptions. Roman residents will still be able to enter the site for free. So will anyone under age 18, as well as teachers keeping school groups company. 38(2.5分) The Pantheon was originally built around 27 BCE. Then it was rebuilt around 118 to 128 CE. In 609 CE, it became a church called the Basilica of Saint Mary and the Martyrs. 39(2.5分) This was partly because it was built using ancient Rome’s high-quality materials. 40(2.5分) It stands at 142 feet tall - which is nearly as tall as the Statue of Liberty. How the structure was built is still somewhat of a mystery, and the exact method of construction has never been determined. A．Later the suggestion was put on hold. B．But some residents agree with the idea. C．Tourists under 25 will only have to pay €2 to enter. D．Every year, millions of tourists explore the structure. E．The Pantheon is still regularly used for religious events. F．For many years, the Pantheon had the largest dome of its kind. G．Throughout its history, it’s proved to be an amazingly strong building. 【答案】36．D 37．A 38．C 39．G 40．F 【导语】本文介绍罗马万神殿的旅游现状、即将开始收费的新政策、免费人群例外、历史沿革以及建筑结构特点。 【详解】36．根据上文 “And if you haven’t been to Rome yet, the Pantheon must be a main destination on your wish list.(如果你还没去过罗马，万神殿一定是你愿望清单上的主要目的地)” 以及下文 “Soon, however, the experience will include one more step: paying an entrance fee.(但很快参观就要多出一项流程：支付门票)” 可知，空格处说明每年有大量游客前来游览。D选项 “Every year, millions of tourists explore the structure.(每年有数百万游客前来参观这座建筑)” 承接上下文，符合语境。 37．根据上文 “Roman officials suggested a €2 entrance fee several years ago.(几年前罗马官员曾提议收取2欧元门票)” 以及下文 “Some church and culture officials signed the new policy in March 2023.(2023年3月相关官员签署了新政策)” 可知，空格处说明当初的提议曾被搁置。A选项 “Later the suggestion was put on hold.(后来这项提议被暂时搁置)” 承接上下文，符合语境。 38．根据上文 “Roman residents will still be able to enter the site for free. So will anyone under age 18, as well as teachers keeping school groups company.(罗马本地居民仍可免费进入该景点。 18岁以下人群以及带队的教师，同样可免票入园)” 可知，空格处继续补充优惠收费人群。C选项 “Tourists under 25 will only have to pay €2 to enter.(25岁以下游客只需支付2欧元即可进入)” 承接上文，符合语境。 39．根据下文 “This was partly because it was built using ancient Rome’s high-quality materials.(部分原因是它采用古罗马高品质材料建造)” 可知，空格处说明万神殿建筑坚固耐用。G选项 “Throughout its history, it’s proved to be an amazingly strong building.(纵观历史，它被证明是一座极其坚固的建筑)” 引出下文原因，符合语境。 40．根据下文 “It stands at 142 feet tall — which is nearly as tall as the Statue of Liberty.(它高142英尺，几乎和自由女神像一样高)” 可知，空格处介绍万神殿穹顶的规模地位。F选项 “For many years, the Pantheon had the largest dome of its kind.(多年来，万神殿拥有同类建筑中最大的穹顶)” 承接下文，符合语境。 三、完形填空 （本题15分）It is February 2020, and it’s almost as cold inside as out.

I’ve discovered China is a country 57(1.5分) deserts, mountains, forests and tundra are best explored on the backs of yaks, horses, elephants and ostriches. While too much of the world misunderstands too much of China, nobody in the world understands all of it — or even close to enough of it — 58(1.5分) (include) even Chinese people. I was particularly honored when many overseas friends said my latest book, A Global Nomad’s Journey Through China’s Poverty Alleviation — which goes beyond policy technicalities (技术性细节) to tell the 59(1.5分) (person) stories of how measures have transformed lives across remote corners of the country — 60(1.5分) (change) their views on China for the better. But I was 61(1.5分) (especial) delighted when many Chinese readers said that they had learned about their own country from reading this book, 62(1.5分) (write) by a foreigner. That was a less-expected honor. While we initially released the book 63(1.5分) English and Chinese, I was delighted that an Italian publisher asked to translate and publish it and 64(1.5分) a Nepalese publisher followed suit, bringing this story to more people in more languages. That’s because, as Nelson Mandela once said, “If you talk to a man in a language he understands, that goes to his head. If you talk to him in his own language, that goes to 65(1.5分) heart.” 【答案】 56．to tell 57．where/whose 58．including 59．personal 60．had changed 61．especially 62．written 63．in 64．that 65．his 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。短文叙述了作者作为一名“用笔探索”的旅行者，分享了自己20年来游历中国偏远地区的经历与感悟。 【详解】56．考查非谓语动词。句意：过去20年里，我作为一名“用笔探索”的旅行者，游历了这个广袤国家的偏远角落——起初希望讲述中国的故事，最终却亲身经历了它；不仅听闻它，而且亲身参与其中；不仅见证它，还无意间成为了它的一部分。此处为固定搭配“hope to do sth.”，意为“希望做某事”，不定式作宾语，故填to tell。 57．考查定语从句。句意：我发现，在中国，沙漠、山脉、森林和苔原地区，最好的探索方式是骑牦牛、马、大象和鸵鸟。此处引导定语从句，先行词为a country，关系词在从句中作地点状语，应用关系副词where。也可以为先行词作从句中的定语，用关系代词whose引导从句。故填where/whose。 58．考查介词。句意：尽管世界上很多人对中国存在诸多误解，但世界上没有人能完全理解中国——甚至远远不够——甚至包括中国人自己。结合句意，“中国人自己”是“没有人能完全理解中国”这一群体的延伸，应用介词including，意为“包括……在内”。故填including。 59．考查形容词。句意：当许多海外友人表示我的最新著作《一个环球游牧者的中国扶贫之旅》——这本书超越了政策的技术性细节，讲述了这些措施如何改变中国偏远地区人们生活的个人故事——改变了他们对中国的看法，从而让他们对中国的印象变得更好时，我感到特别荣幸。此处修饰名词stories，应用形容词形式，personal意为“个人的”，符合“聚焦个体生活改变”的语境，故填personal。 60．考查动词时态。句意：当许多海外友人表示我的最新著作《一个环球游牧者的中国扶贫之旅》——这本书超越了政策的技术性细节，讲述了这些措施如何改变中国偏远地区人们生活的个人故事——改变了他们对中国的看法，从而让他们对中国的印象变得更好时，我感到特别荣幸。主语为my latest book与change之间是主动关系（书改变了看法），根据主句中的谓语said可知，改变发生在过去的过去，表示对于过去产生的影响，用过去完成时。故填had changed。 61．考查副词。句意：但当许多中国读者说他们通过读这本由外国人写的书，了解到了自己的国家时，我感到尤其高兴。此处修饰形容词delighted，应用副词形式，especially意为“尤其，特别”，强调对比海外友人的认可，中国读者的反馈更让作者意外和欣喜，故填especially。 62．考查非谓语动词。句意：但当许多中国读者说他们通过读这本由外国人写的书，了解到了自己的国家时，我感到尤其高兴。此处为非谓语动词作定语，book与write之间是被动关系（书被写），应用过去分词written，故填written。 63．考查介词。句意：虽然我们最初以英文和中文出版了这本书，但当一家意大利出版商要求翻译出版，且一家尼泊尔出版商也跟进时，我感到非常高兴，这让这个故事能以更多语言带给更多人。此处表示“以某种语言（出版）”，应用介词in，固定搭配“in + 语言”表示语言媒介，故填in。 64．考查宾语从句。句意：虽然我们最初以英文和中文出版了这本书，但当一家意大利出版商要求翻译出版，且一家尼泊尔出版商也跟进时，我感到非常高兴，这让这个故事能以更多语言带给更多人。分析句子结构，that an Italian publisher asked to translate and publish it为宾语从句，空处同样引导宾语从句，陈述事实，不缺少成分和意义，用that引导宾语从句。故填that。 65．考查代词。句意：如果你用一个人能理解的语言和他交谈，话语会进入他的大脑；如果你用他自己的语言和他交谈，话语会进入他的内心。此处指代前文的“a man”，应用形容词性物主代词his修饰名词heart，与前文的“his head”形成对应，故填his。 五、书信写作 66．（本题15分）假定你是李华。你校的英文播客TeenTalk正在征稿，邀请同学们谈谈旅行前是否应提前做好详尽攻略。请你写一篇短文投稿，内容包括： 1．你的观点；2．阐述理由。 注意：1．写作词数应为80词左右；2．请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Should We Make Detailed Travel Plans Before Trips? ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】例文① Should We Make Detailed Travel Plans Before Trips? When it comes to traveling, I firmly believe it is necessary to make thorough travel plans before setting off. To begin with, detailed preparations ensure our safety. We can look up local weather, transport and dangerous areas ahead of time to stay away from risks. Besides, learning about local traditions helps us behave politely and avoid cultural misunderstandings. Moreover, planning budgets and attractions saves plenty of time and money. Without detailed plans, we may waste hours finding hotels or getting tickets. All in all, proper pre-trip research brings us a safer, smoother and more rewarding journey. 例文② Should We Make Detailed Travel Plans Before Trips? When it comes to traveling, I think there is no need to make thorough travel plans before travelling. For one thing, over-detailed schedules take away the joy of surprise. If every hour is arranged, we will miss unexpected beautiful scenery or warm encounters with locals. For another, tight plans bring huge pressure. Travelling is meant to relax ourselves, not rush from one spot to another according to a rigid timetable. Too many detailed plans limit our freedom. We can wander freely, adjust our route anytime and feel the real charm of travelling. In short, light preparation leaves room for wonderful random experiences. 【导语】本篇书面表达要求考生就英文播客TeenTalk的征稿写一篇短文，谈论旅行前是否应当提前做好详尽攻略，表明个人观点并阐述相应理由。 【详解】例文① 1.词汇积累 出发：set off → depart 确保：ensure → guarantee 地区：area → district 有益的：rewarding → beneficial 2.句式拓展 同义句转换 原句：Besides, learning about local traditions helps us behave politely and avoid cultural misunderstandings. 拓展句：Not only can learning about local traditions help us behave politely, but it also enables us to avoid cultural misunderstandings. 【点睛】【高分句型1】When it comes to traveling, I firmly believe it is necessary to make thorough travel plans before setting off.(运用了省略that的宾语从句和动名词短语setting off作宾语) 【高分句型2】We can look up local weather, transport and dangerous areas ahead of time to stay away from risks.(运用了不定式作目的状语) 六、书面表达 67．（本题25分）阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。 Having been working hard for a long time, I decided to treat myself to a solo (独自的) trip to Türkiye. It felt like the perfect way to mark the end of one chapter and the beginning of another. The first few days were magical — walking through busy markets, admiring ancient architecture, and enjoying delicious local cuisine. Istanbul, the largest city of Türkiye, offers unforgettable beauty at every turn. I started my day watching the Hagia Sophia, one of Istanbul’s most impressive landmarks, shining in the sunlight. I ended my day drinking the local tea. Everything was going smoothly, until a sudden announcement from the airport made my plans in chaos — my flight to the next stop was cancelled. My heart sank. It wasn’t just the next stop; it was an important, previously planned part of my trip. A non-refundable, luxurious cave hotel awaited me. I’d prepaid for a private car service that was expecting me tonight, and crucially, tomorrow’s prebooked hot air balloon ride and guided valley tours demanded an early start. Panic seized me. Anxiously checking alternatives, I found only one flight arriving late the next afternoon. Standing alone at the airport, holding my useless boarding pass, I was in despair (绝望). My heart ached at the thought of losing hundreds of euros. Tears welled up in my eyes. At that moment, my travel agency was unreachable. My only hope rested with the driver, Mr. Demir, who was the same age as my dad and supposedly waiting at the airport of my next stop. Had the car company received the email and notified him of the cancellation? Would he check? Would he care enough to adjust without charging me a lot of money? Hours passed as I rearranged my flight for the next morning. Extremely tired and overwhelmed (不知所措的), I boarded the rescheduled flight, unsure of what to expect. Eventually, I landed, but I felt like going into continued uncertainty. 注意： （1）续写词数应为150个左右； （2）请按如下格式作答。 Suddenly, a loud voice cut through the noise: “Miss Doros? From Athens?” ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ On the way to the hotel, I appreciated what Mr. Demir had done for me again. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】范文 Suddenly, a loud voice cut through the noise: “Miss Doros? From Athens?” I turned around and saw a kind-looking man with a warm smile, holding a sign with my name. It was Mr. Demir! He explained that the car company had informed him of the flight cancellation, but he’d waited patiently, even checked three different flights to make sure he wouldn’t miss me. “I know you have a balloon ride tomorrow,” he said gently. “I’ve talked to the hotel and the tour company — they’ve adjusted your schedule for free.” Relief washed over me, and tears of gratitude replaced those of despair. On the way to the hotel, I appreciated what Mr. Demir had done for me again. I told him how worried I was about losing my prepaid plans, and he laughed, saying, “Travel is full of surprises, but we should help each other.” He even shared stories of local customs, making the drive feel warm and short. When we arrived, the hotel staff greeted me with a smile, confirming my adjusted reservation. At that moment, I realized that even when plans go wrong, kindness from strangers can turn despair into a beautiful memory of my solo trip. 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了作者独自前往土耳其旅行，起初一切顺利。然而航班突然取消，预定好的酒店、专车和热气球行程都面临泡汤，她十分绝望。改签航班后，司机德米尔先生早已等候，并免费帮她调整好了所有行程。陌生人的善意让她摆脱困境，这段经历也成为了旅途中温暖难忘的回忆。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“突然，一个响亮的声音在嘈杂声中传来：‘多罗斯小姐？来自雅典？’”可知，第一段可描写改签航班后，司机德米尔先生早已等候，并免费帮她调整好了所有行程。 ②由第二段首句内容“在前往酒店的路上，我再次感激德米尔先生为我所做的一切”可知，第二段可描写陌生人的善意让作者摆脱困境，这段经历也成为了旅途中温暖难忘的回忆。 2.续写线索：司机早已等候——免费调整行程——作者感激——路上分享风俗故事——作者感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①看到：see/catch sight of ②查看：check/examine ③一扫而空：wash over/sweep away 情绪类 ①担心：worried/concerned ②感激：gratitude/appreciation 【点睛】[高分句型1] I told him how worried I was about losing my prepaid plans, and he laughed, saying, “Travel is full of surprises, but we should help each other.”（运用了how引导宾语从句） [高分句型2] When we arrived, the hotel staff greeted me with a smile, confirming my adjusted reservation.（运用了when引导时间状语从句） 2 / 2 2 / 2 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
