You’re getting off here?” I could see what she meant. Behind the wire fencing lining the platform lay a handful of industrial buildings alongside unremarkable farmland. I had arrived in La Creuse — one of the departments the French call la France profonde — deepest, darkest France — and apparently the country’s least-visited region, north of Limoges. I attempted to find the landscape that had inspired the painter Claude Monet, a landscape that, unlike his Rouen, Paris and London, which he painted many times, remains relatively unknown. In early 1889, several years before he started his world-famous water lily (睡莲) series, Monet spent several months in the countryside near the small village of Fresselines, about an hour’s drive north of Limoges. Like his fellow impressionists, Monet was on the lookout for locations to paint in the open air, and his friend Gustave Geffroy suggested La Creuse, by which Monet was soon attracted. I had arranged to do the circular, three-kilometre route with Monet expert Christophe Rameix, and we were walking through the thick woodland that lines the banks of the Creuse River. Information posts on the path show copies of Monet’s paintings at the spots where he created them. Eventually, after climbing over slippery rocks, we reached the bank from which Monet had looked down, positioning his easel (画架) at a place where two sections of the Creuse River join. “Monet was attracted by the water,” Rameix told me. “He wanted to catch its movement, even its sound.” It wasn’t hard to see why La Creuse had inspired Monet. I only wondered why La Creuse was not better known. 24．(2.5分)How did the woman feel when the author was getting off the train? A．Relieved. B．Confused. C．Annoyed. D．Encouraged. 25．(2.5分)Why did the author travel to La Creuse? A．To participate in a painting tour. B．To rediscover his interest in Monet’s works. C．To attend Monet’s art exhibition. D．To explore Monet’s less-known inspiration. 26．(2.5分)What can we learn about Monet around 1889? A．He was introduced into La Creuse. B．He perfected his impressionist touch. C．He made friends with Gustave Geffroy. D．He was working on his water lily series. 27．(2.5分)What did Rameix say about Monet? A．He liked painting in diverse environments. B．He aimed to represent water as a solid element. C．He tried to grasp the core of water in his paintings. D．He preferred painting landscapes over other subjects. （本题10分）South Africa is attracting more Chinese tourists with its unique travel experiences. Visitors can track lions and leopards from an open safari vehicle, see whales jump out of the ocean, and watch cute penguins walk along the beach. “It’s exciting to see these wild animals. I escaped the busy city life and felt the power of life,” said Wu Qian, a Beijing office worker, who recently visited the country. According to South African Tourism, the number of Chinese visitors to South Africa in 2024 reached 41,651, showing an 11.4 percent year-on-year growth. From January to May this year, 17,431 Chinese tourists arrived in South Africa, with a 1.1 percent year-on-year growth. To attract more Chinese tourists, South Africa started the Trusted Tour Operator Scheme in February to make visa applications easier and faster. A total of 47 Chinese travel agencies have joined the program. They can apply for visas online and get them within 24 hours. This is one of South Africa’s strategies to welcome more Chinese visitors, along with adding more flights. “China is an important and the fastest-growing tourist source market for South Africa,” says Patricia, South Africa’s minister of tourism. She believes that the growth of Chinese tourists will help the South African tourism industry recover. According to her, special services are available for high-end tourists, family travelers, and study tour groups. Beyond famous attractions like wildlife reserves and Table Mountain, South Africa also offers rich food culture and historical heritage. South Africa is also attracting Chinese tourists through Chinese social media platforms by inviting Chinese famous people, influencers and South Africans living in China to create content. Recently, the tourism authority shared short videos online about actor Lei Jiayin’s travel experience in South Africa, announcing that he is the ambassador (大使) for the country’s tourism. 28．(2.5分)How does the author develop paragraph 2? A．By giving examples. B．By providing data. C．By stating opinions. D．By explaining reasons. 29．(2.5分)What is Patricia’s attitude towards the growth of Chinese tourists? A．Positive. B．Doubtful.

A．Unique Travel Experiences in South Africa B．China’s Growing Interest in South African Culture C．South Africa’s Strategies to Attract More Chinese Tourists D．South Africa’s Rich Food Culture and Historical Heritage （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）Travelling is such a wonderful opportunity and being able to travel on a budget makes it more accessible to people.

She was three, and as a new travel writer, I was excited about a solo (独自的) visit alone to South Carolina. Seeing photos of where I was going, she didn’t hold back her despair. “Why did you even have me if you were just going to leave me behind?” she sobbed. I tried to tell her that someday she’d understand. But as my husband, Evan, pried(拉开) her off my leg so I could leave, I wondered if my solo trip would be worth the effort of going without her. Returning home after a few days away, I felt energized and inspired. Mai a was happy to hear about my trip. She told me I could keep going on trips for work— but she’d come with me. Growing up on a sailing boat gave Mai a an early sense of adventure. Travelling is something Evan and I hoped :Maia would love. Our goal was to set out sailing again when she was seven, an age when she’d be able to remember the voyage. Until then, the plan was for me to travel on my own and build a writing career while we took Maia on short family trips. But then, a year later, an invitation came to experience the Rocky Mountaineer on a parent-child journey through the Rockies, which sounded too good to pass up.

If you’ve been with us from the beginning, you’ll know that we began our tour in Amsterdam, walked our way through Germany and Austria, down into Italy, back up through Switzerland and this week we are in Paris. We won’t spend much time at the big attractions. In a tourist destination like Paris, even a new traveler knows to see the famous art museums of Paris and no one misses the Eiffel Tower. But we’re going to some of the places the average tourist misses. For instance, the best view in town may not be from the top of the Eiffel Tower, but from the top of the Montparnasse Tower. The view includes the Eiffel Tower as well as everything else. It’s cheaper and easier to get up here. We can join a ride on a public bus. I like the views from Line 63. To cover more territory, traffic and streets for you, I ride the subway. Many European cities have subway systems, the one in Paris is really amazing. You can go anywhere in town for a reasonable price. And don’t worry, getting lost is cheap. In fact, you could stay underground all day long on one ticket about the cost of a cup of coffee. 二、阅读理解 （本题7.5分）Four Traditional Chinese Handcraft Studios in Vancouver Vancouver boasts a large Chinese community, where visitors can easily access authentic traditional Chinese handicrafts passed down for centuries.

You’re getting off here?” I could see what she meant. Behind the wire fencing lining the platform lay a handful of industrial buildings alongside unremarkable farmland. I had arrived in La Creuse — one of the departments the French call la France profonde — deepest, darkest France — and apparently the country’s least-visited region, north of Limoges. I attempted to find the landscape that had inspired the painter Claude Monet, a landscape that, unlike his Rouen, Paris and London, which he painted many times, remains relatively unknown. In early 1889, several years before he started his world-famous water lily (睡莲) series, Monet spent several months in the countryside near the small village of Fresselines, about an hour’s drive north of Limoges. Like his fellow impressionists, Monet was on the lookout for locations to paint in the open air, and his friend Gustave Geffroy suggested La Creuse, by which Monet was soon attracted. I had arranged to do the circular, three-kilometre route with Monet expert Christophe Rameix, and we were walking through the thick woodland that lines the banks of the Creuse River. Information posts on the path show copies of Monet’s paintings at the spots where he created them. Eventually, after climbing over slippery rocks, we reached the bank from which Monet had looked down, positioning his easel (画架) at a place where two sections of the Creuse River join. “Monet was attracted by the water,” Rameix told me. “He wanted to catch its movement, even its sound.” It wasn’t hard to see why La Creuse had inspired Monet. I only wondered why La Creuse was not better known. 24．(2.5分)How did the woman feel when the author was getting off the train? A．Relieved. B．Confused. C．Annoyed. D．Encouraged. 25．(2.5分)Why did the author travel to La Creuse? A．To participate in a painting tour. B．To rediscover his interest in Monet’s works. C．To attend Monet’s art exhibition. D．To explore Monet’s less-known inspiration. 26．(2.5分)What can we learn about Monet around 1889? A．He was introduced into La Creuse. B．He perfected his impressionist touch. C．He made friends with Gustave Geffroy. D．He was working on his water lily series. 27．(2.5分)What did Rameix say about Monet? A．He liked painting in diverse environments. B．He aimed to represent water as a solid element. C．He tried to grasp the core of water in his paintings. D．He preferred painting landscapes over other subjects. 【答案】24．B 25．D 26．A 27．C 【导语】本文讲述作者专程前往法国小众地区克勒兹省，探寻曾启发印象派大师莫奈作画的自然风光的经历。 【详解】24．推理判断题。根据第一段“Her expression seemed to say, “Really? You’re getting off here?”(她的神情仿佛在发问：“真的吗？你要在这儿下车？”)”可知，看到作者下车，这位女士是感到困惑的。 25．细节理解题。根据第三段“I attempted to find the landscape that had inspired the painter Claude Monet, a landscape that, unlike his Rouen, Paris and London, which he painted many times, remains relatively unknown.(我想要寻访这片曾赋予画家克劳德・莫奈创作灵感的风光。莫奈曾多次描绘鲁昂、巴黎与伦敦的景色，而这片景致却依旧鲜为人知。)”可知，作者前往克勒兹省的原因是探寻曾给莫奈带来灵感的小众之地。 26．细节理解题。根据第三段“In early 1889... his friend Gustave Geffroy suggested La Creuse, by which Monet was soon attracted.( 1889 年初……他的好友古斯塔夫・热弗鲁瓦向他推荐了克勒兹省，莫奈很快便被这片地方深深吸引。)”可知，1889年左右，莫奈经友人介绍来到克勒兹省。 27．细节理解题。根据第四段““Monet was attracted by the water,” Rameix told me. “He wanted to catch its movement, even its sound.”(拉梅对我说：“莫奈深深沉醉于这里的流水，他想要捕捉水流的灵动姿态，甚至是潺潺水声。”)”可知，拉梅克斯对莫奈的评价是力求在画作中展现水的精髓。 （本题10分）South Africa is attracting more Chinese tourists with its unique travel experiences. Visitors can track lions and leopards from an open safari vehicle, see whales jump out of the ocean, and watch cute penguins walk along the beach. “It’s exciting to see these wild animals. I escaped the busy city life and felt the power of life,” said Wu Qian, a Beijing office worker, who recently visited the country. According to South African Tourism, the number of Chinese visitors to South Africa in 2024 reached 41,651, showing an 11.4 percent year-on-year growth. From January to May this year, 17,431 Chinese tourists arrived in South Africa, with a 1.1 percent year-on-year growth. To attract more Chinese tourists, South Africa started the Trusted Tour Operator Scheme in February to make visa applications easier and faster. A total of 47 Chinese travel agencies have joined the program. They can apply for visas online and get them within 24 hours. This is one of South Africa’s strategies to welcome more Chinese visitors, along with adding more flights. “China is an important and the fastest-growing tourist source market for South Africa,” says Patricia, South Africa’s minister of tourism. She believes that the growth of Chinese tourists will help the South African tourism industry recover. According to her, special services are available for high-end tourists, family travelers, and study tour groups. Beyond famous attractions like wildlife reserves and Table Mountain, South Africa also offers rich food culture and historical heritage. South Africa is also attracting Chinese tourists through Chinese social media platforms by inviting Chinese famous people, influencers and South Africans living in China to create content. Recently, the tourism authority shared short videos online about actor Lei Jiayin’s travel experience in South Africa, announcing that he is the ambassador (大使) for the country’s tourism. 28．(2.5分)How does the author develop paragraph 2? A．By giving examples. B．By providing data. C．By stating opinions. D．By explaining reasons. 29．(2.5分)What is Patricia’s attitude towards the growth of Chinese tourists? A．Positive. B．Doubtful. C．Worried. D．Uninterested. 30．(2.5分)What is a method South Africa uses to develop tourism? A．Lowering the prices of flight tickets. B．Using Chinese social media platforms. C．Offering free visa services to Chinese visitors. D．Building new Chinese restaurants in major cities. 31．(2.5分)Which is the best title for the text? A．Unique Travel Experiences in South Africa B．China’s Growing Interest in South African Culture C．South Africa’s Strategies to Attract More Chinese Tourists D．South Africa’s Rich Food Culture and Historical Heritage 【答案】28．B 29．A 30．B 31．C 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述南非通过多种策略吸引中国游客，游客量呈增长态势。 【详解】28．推理判断题。根据第二段“According to South African Tourism, the number of Chinese visitors to South Africa in 2024 reached 41,651, showing an 11.4 percent year-on-year growth. From January to May this year, 17,431 Chinese tourists arrived in South Africa, with a 1.1 percent year-on-year growth.(据南非旅游局消息，2024年前往南非的中国游客数量达到41651人，同比增长11.4%。今年1月至5月，有17431名中国游客抵达南非，同比增长1.1%)”可知，作者通过提供数据来展开段落，故选B。 29．推理判断题。根据第四段中“China is an important and the fastest-growing tourist source market for South Africa(中国是南非重要的且增长迅速的旅游客源市场)”以及“She believes that the growth of Chinese tourists will help the South African tourism industry recover.(她认为，中国游客的增多将有助于南非旅游业的复苏)”可知，她语气充满肯定与期待，为积极态度，故选A。 30．细节理解题。根据最后一段中“South Africa is also attracting Chinese tourists through Chinese social media platforms by inviting Chinese famous people, influencers and South Africans living in China to create content.(南非还通过中国社交媒体平台吸引中国游客，他们邀请了中国知名人士、网红以及居住在中国的南非人来创作相关内容)”可知，南非发展旅游业所采用的方法是利用中国的社交媒体平台。故选B。 31．主旨大意题。根据第一段“South Africa is attracting more Chinese tourists with its unique travel experiences.(南非凭借其独特的旅游体验吸引了越来越多的中国游客)”以及全文围绕南非吸引中国游客的举措展开，包括：推出签证便利计划、增加航班、针对中国游客的定制服务、通过社交媒体宣传、邀请中国明星担任旅游大使等，选项C“南非吸引更多中国游客的策略”最符合文章标题。故选C。 （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）Travelling is such a wonderful opportunity and being able to travel on a budget makes it more accessible to people. Also, you spend less on one adventure, save for another. 36(2.5分) . In this post I’ll share all my top tips for travelling on a budget. Choose your destination carefully 37(2.5分) .

Maybe it’s somewhere that’s cheap and easy to get to, somewhere where the currency gets you good value because of the exchange rate, or somewhere that has a lower cost of living than home! Avoid tourist traps Big cities and tourist hotspots are often a lot more expensive than places off the beaten track! Try and choose less well-known destinations, if you can. Even within your destination, avoid restaurants on the main street and try something down a sidewalk. 38(2.5分) ! Pack well Firstly, pack light. 39(2.5分) . It’ll only cost you more in baggage to bring more than you need. However, one of the most important tips for travelling on a budget is that it’s important to check that you take everything you need, not forgetting anything! If you forget something, it could cost a lot of money to buy that essential missing item when you’re abroad. 40(2.5分) Sure, you might not be able to guarantee the weather, but your chosen destination will be a lot less busy and crowded during that period. Not only will you save a lot of money, but you’ll have it all to yourself! A．Travel off-season B．Consider the weather C．Read others’ backpacking experiences D．You won’t wear half the clothes you want to take E．Budget travel doesn’t have to be any less fun either F．The food will probably be better as well as cheaper G．Some places are naturally more expensive than where you call home 【答案】36．E 37．G 38．F 39．D 40．A 【导语】文章介绍了如何在预算内旅行的实用技巧，包括选择目的地、避开旅游陷阱、合理打包行李以及选择淡季出行等方面，旨在帮助人们以更经济的方式享受旅行的乐趣。 【详解】36．上文“Travelling is such a wonderful opportunity and being able to travel on a budget makes it more accessible to people. Also, you spend less on one adventure, save for another. (旅行是一个美妙的机会，能够在预算内旅行使更多人能够参与。而且，你在一次冒险中花得钱少了，就能为下一次存钱。)”说明预算旅行的好处，下文“In this post I'll share all my top tips for travelling on a budget. (在这篇文章中，我将分享所有关于预算旅行的顶级技巧。)”引出具体建议，E项“Budget travel doesn't have to be any less fun either (预算旅行同样可以充满乐趣)”承接上文对预算旅行好处的描述，同时以积极的语气过渡到下文的技巧分享。 37．下文“My first tip for travelling on a budget is to research places that are good for travelling on a budget. Maybe it's somewhere that's cheap and easy to get to, somewhere where the currency gets you good value because of the exchange rate, or somewhere that has a lower cost of living than home! (我关于预算旅行的第一个建议是研究适合预算旅行的地方。也许是某个便宜且容易到达的地方，或是因汇率优势，当地货币能让你的钱花得很值的地方，或者生活成本比家乡低的地方！)”说明要选择适合预算的目的地，G项“Some places are naturally more expensive than where you call home (有些地方天然比你的家乡更贵)”与下文形成对比，正是因为有些地方更贵，所以需要仔细研究选择。 38．上文“Even within your destination, avoid restaurants on the main street and try something down a sidewalk. (即使在你的目的地内，也要避开主街上的餐厅，试试人行道旁的餐馆。)”建议避开主街餐厅，F项“The food will probably be better as well as cheaper (食物可能会更好吃也更便宜)”承接上文，说明小巷里的餐厅不仅省钱而且食物质量可能更好，符合语境。 39．上文“Firstly, pack light.

Growing up on a sailing boat gave Mai a an early sense of adventure. Travelling is something Evan and I hoped :Maia would love. Our goal was to set out sailing again when she was seven, an age when she’d be able to remember the voyage. Until then, the plan was for me to travel on my own and build a writing career while we took Maia on short family trips. But then, a year later, an invitation came to experience the Rocky Mountaineer on a parent-child journey through the Rockies, which sounded too good to pass up.
