It’s a funny, heartwarming story of a group of theater-loving women who decide to perform an all-female version of William Shakespeare’s play, while all the men are away fighting in World War II. We’ll be looking for six girls to play the female parts, ranging from young women to old ladies. There are also a couple of male parts: Alexander Ford and Joe White. The original play was set in the U.S. , but our writers decided to move the action to Australia, so we could use our own accents. There are passages of Shakespeare throughout the play, for which we’ll use British accents. Tryouts are on Friday. You’ll be asked to read a scene from the play, as well as perform a short Shakespeare speech. I hope to see you all there!

The film shines with breathtaking ocean scenes and a powerful message about resolution, as well as finding strength through adversity. Hidden Figures (2016)

Facing racism and sexism, the three characters use brilliance and courage to make groundbreaking calculations, thus contributing to launching the astronaut John Glenn into orbit — proving that genius knows no gender or color.

(本题10分)Meng Xiang was crazy about films and music during his childhood. When he started college, he dreamed to make films that could combine his love for storytelling and interest in music.
His biggest challenge came when he planned to make a film about a tennis player. Since no one would offer him money for a 2-hour film, Meng and his college friends tried to make a shorter one. They bought a second-hand camera and used old things instead of expensive equipment. They even made a shelf on their own to support the camera.
Meng and his friends worked hard, rain or shine. When filming the tennis player, they ran after him in the summer sun. If it rained and they couldn’t film outside, they hung bed sheets (床单) on the walls in an empty room to set up a simple studio (摄影棚). This 12-minute film got much attention. The teachers and students in their college liked the music they created for it.
After that, Meng had another idea: to make a musical film. But musicals weren’t popular in college, and many said it wouldn’t work. Instead of listening to the doubts, Meng and his team spent weeks writing new songs and making a test video. To film the moving scenes, they fixed a smartphone on a skateboard and pushed it. The actors’ hair was blowing in the wind while they were dancing and singing. The loud voice and laughter of the team filled the air.
Their musical film was well received and won several awards at a film festival. As Meng said, “Making films isn’t about having the best equipment or famous actors. It’s about finding new ways to tell your story. Our team is planning to make a special documentary about the environment. And I can’t wait to write music for it.”
24.(2.5分)How would Meng combine his hobbies according to paragraph 1?
A.By creating music. B.By starting a team.
C.By going to college. D.By producing films.
25.(2.5分)What was the team’s biggest challenge?
A.Few partners. B.People’s doubts.
C.The money problem. D.Long working time.
26.(2.5分)Why did Meng’s team set up a simple studio?
A.To work on rainy days. B.To get much attention.
C.To follow the tennis player. D.To film a moving scene.
27.(2.5分)What can be learned from the last sentence of paragraph 4?
A.The actors were popular. B.The team enjoyed the process.
C.Meng wanted to make another film. D.The students had good equipment.
【答案】24.D 25.C 26.A 27.B
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了孟翔通过努力和创意,用有限的资源制作电影,并最终取得成功的故事。
24.细节理解题。根据第一段中“When he started college, he dreamed to make films that could combine his love for storytelling and interest in music.(当他开始上大学时,他梦想制作能够将他对讲故事的热爱和对音乐的兴趣结合起来的电影。)”可知,孟翔通过制作电影来结合他的爱好。故选D。
25.细节理解题。根据第二段中“His biggest challenge came when he planned to make a film about a tennis player. Since no one would offer him money for a 2-hour film, Meng and his college friends tried to make a shorter one. (他最大的挑战是计划拍摄一部关于网球运动员的电影。由于没有人愿意给他钱拍一部2小时的电影,孟翔和他的大学朋友们试图拍一部更短的电影。)”可知,团队最大的挑战是资金问题。故选C。
26.细节理解题。根据第三段中“If it rained and they couldn’t film outside, they hung bed sheets (床单) on the walls in an empty room to set up a simple studio (摄影棚).(如果下雨,他们不能在外面拍摄,他们就在空房间的墙上挂上床单,搭建一个简单的摄影棚。)”可知,他的团队搭建了一个简单的摄影棚是为了在下雨天继续工作。故选A。
27.推理判断题。根据第四段中“The actors’ hair was blowing in the wind while they were dancing and singing. The loud voice and laughter of the team filled the air.(演员们载歌载舞,头发在风中飘扬。团队的声音和笑声充满了空气。)”可知,团队在拍摄过程中充满了欢乐和活力,由此可推知,团队享受了这个过程。故选B。
(本题10分)Beaverton is home to a large group of hair-covered, wood-chewing creatures. The mayor decides their forest should be removed for a highway. Mabel, a teenage activist, is angry about this. After she discovers a project allowing her to transfer her awareness into a robotic animal, she befriends the creatures and encourages them to fight with teeth and nails.
This is the fun setting of the film Hoppers. Animation films (动画电影) are typically aimed at small children, but they are hugely popular with audiences of all ages. In 2024, Inside Out 2 became the highest-earning animated film of all time, taking $1.7 billion globally. In early 2025, it was overtaken by Ne Zha 2, which went on to earn over $2 billion. Zootopia 2, released later that year, made $1.9 billion. How did animation become such a draw?
One reason is that storytellers have aimed for wide appeal. Many animated films touch on universal themes — the struggles of growing up or the experience of losing a loved one. The best movies usually follow the “22 Rules for Storytelling” created by a Pixar artist. She advised focusing on characters and emotion. Viewers admire a character for trying more than for their successes.
Another factor is animation’s global reach. Such films generally avoid unsuitable content (内容). They also translate well across cultures, with fantastic settings or simple ideas that are not culturally specific. Characters’ faces are also stylised and expressive.
Also, distributors (经销商) have chosen the time wisely. The biggest animated films are released during school holidays. In 2022, 44% of animated films from top American studios went straight to streaming; in 2025 just 8% did. “A trip to the cinema is an easy win for parents who want to get their children out of the house,” says an industry analyst.
Moreover, clever scriptwriters include jokes for adults to enjoy — with or without kids together. Film series tap into nostalgia (怀旧) too. Audiences become less interested when studios go too far from these rules. It turns out to be a great idea to work with animals and children.
28.(2.5分)How does the author lead into the topic?
A.By listing box office data. B.By comparing hit movies.
C.By presenting a creative plot. D.By explaining a famous theory.
29.(2.5分)What does the data in paragraph 2 show?
A.The huge success of animations. B.The cost of animation production.
C.Live films’ lead in market income. D.Movie preferences in different areas.
30.(2.5分)What matters most in Pixar’s “22 Rules”?
A.Hot topics for all age groups. B.Rich storyline and social meaning.
C.Perfect and successful endings. D.Figures’ emotions and personalities.
31.(2.5分)What does the author highlight about animated films in the last two paragraphs?
A.Their global influence and great popularity.
B.Their content features and release strategies.
C.Their wise balance between traditions and box office.
D.Their cultural adaptability and comments received.
【答案】28.C 29.A 30.D 31.B
【导语】本文主要分析动画电影深受各年龄层观众喜爱的多重原因,涉及故事创作、传播、排片与剧本设计等方面。
【详解】28.推理判断题。根据第一段中的“Beaverton is home to a large group of hair-covered, wood-chewing creatures. The mayor decides their forest should be removed for a highway. Mabel, a teenage activist, is angry about this. After she discovers a project allowing her to transfer her awareness into a robotic animal, she befriends the creatures and encourages them to fight with teeth and nails. (比弗顿是一大群浑身长毛、啃咬木头生物的栖息地。市长决定清除它们的森林来修建公路。少女活动家梅布尔对此感到愤慨。当她发现一项能够将自身意识转移到机器动物身上的项目之后,她与这些生物结交,鼓励它们拼命抗争。)”和第二段第一句“This is the fun setting of the film Hoppers.(这是电影《霍珀斯》的有趣场景。)”可知,作者通过讲述一段富有想象力的电影故事情节引出文章话题。
29.推理判断题。根据第二段中的“In 2024, Inside Out 2 became the highest-earning animated film of all time, taking $1.7 billion globally. In early 2025, it was overtaken by Ne Zha 2, which went on to earn over $2 billion. Zootopia 2, released later that year, made $1.9 billion.(2024年《头脑特工队2》成为史上票房最高动画电影,全球收获17亿美元;2025年初被《哪吒2》超越,票房突破20亿美元;同年晚些上映的《疯狂动物城2》取得19亿美元票房。)” 可知,第二段列举的数据体现出动画电影取得了巨大成功。
30.细节理解题。根据第三段中的“The best movies usually follow the “22 Rules for Storytelling” created by a Pixar artist. She advised focusing on characters and emotion. Viewers admire a character for trying more than for their successes.(最优秀的电影通常遵循由皮克斯一位艺术家制定的“22条讲故事法则”。她建议要聚焦人物与情感。观众敬佩一个角色,更多是因为其不懈努力,而非其所取得的成功。)”可知,皮克斯22条讲故事准则最看重人物的情感与性格特质。
31.推理判断题。根据第五段中的“Also, distributors (经销商) have chosen the time wisely. The biggest animated films are released during school holidays.(另外,经销商明智地选定了上映时间。最大的动画片都在学校假期期间上映。)”以及第六段中的“Moreover, clever scriptwriters include jokes for adults to enjoy — with or without kids together.(而且,聪明的编剧会加入可供成年人欣赏的笑话——不论是否和孩子一同观看。)”可知,最后两段重点介绍动画电影的内容特点以及上映发行策略。
(本题10分)On a cold Wednesday morning, Xu Wei, who is visually impaired (受损的), joined 40 other attendees to “watch” the film called One and Only. The experience inside the room differed from a regular movie showing. During gaps between dialogue and sound in the film, detailed audio descriptions explained what was happening — describing the scenery, the action and even the body language.
The version screened for these attendees was created by Guangming Cinema. Since it was founded in 2017, the volunteer-driven organization has involved over 800 teachers and students in producing, promoting, and distributing accessible films. To adapt a single 90-minute movie, the team begins by watching it ten times, carefully studying every detail. Only then do they draft audio guidance, typically 20,000 to 30,000 characters long, and bring an accessible version of the movie to life.
It is never easy to “tell” a movie to those with vision loss. Hu Fang, a project volunteer, was once asked by a child, “What is the color red?” This question revealed how little sighted narrators understand about the experience of visually impaired moviegoers. From then on, Hu’s team ensured their descriptions fit the film and reflected how the world is perceived through sound.
Over the years, the team have organized many screenings nationwide. To reach more audiences, they work closely with local disability organizations and schools. They provide the movies and support, while partners host the screenings and connect with local audiences. These screenings offer more than movies — they also deliver a valuable social experience. “Accessible cinema adds color to our lives and gives us a reason to go out. Chatting with other friends at these events is enjoyable, and it also gives us more to talk about with sighted people,” said Xu Wei.
Looking ahead, Xu hopes that increased accessible guidance will allow people with various disabilities to better enjoy films, exhibitions, museums and other cultural experiences, giving everyone equal access to the arts.
32.(2.5分)What can we learn about Xu Wei from paragraph 1?
A.He worked as a narrator for the blind. B.He discovered a film’s deeper significance.
C.He enjoyed a standard opera screening. D.He watched a film with audio descriptions.
33.(2.5分)What did Hu Fang and her team do after hearing the child’s question?
A.They learned how to tell the color. B.They changed their narration way.
C.They gave priority to others’ feelings. D.They took the description of colors seriously.
34.(2.5分)What can be inferred from Xu Wei’s words in paragraph 4?
A.Audio descriptions still need improvement.
B.Accessible cinemas should be more widespread.
C.Screening events help build social connections.
D.Sighted people lack awareness of the blind’s needs.
35.(2.5分)What is the main idea of the text?
A.Volunteers’ filmmaking faces many challenges.
B.A movie theater is strongly supporting the disabled.
C.Audio descriptions explain movie dialogues clearly.
D.A cinema enables visually-impaired audience to watch films.
【答案】32.D 33.B 34.C 35.D
【导语】文章主要说明了光明影院组织志愿者制作无障碍电影,反复打磨音频解说,联合机构放映,给视障人士社交机会,期盼更多无障碍文化服务。
【详解】32.细节理解题。根据第一段“The experience inside the room differed from a regular movie showing. During gaps between dialogue and sound in the film, detailed audio descriptions explained what was happening — describing the scenery, the action and even the body language.(房间内的体验与普通电影放映有所不同。在影片对话和声音之间的间隙,会配有详细的音频解说,描述正在发生的情景——包括场景、动作,甚至肢体语言)”可知,Xu Wei观看的是带有音频描述的电影。
33.细节理解题。根据第三段“From then on, Hu’s team ensured their descriptions fit the film and reflected how the world is perceived through sound.(从那时起,胡的团队确保他们的描述与电影内容相符,并反映出声音如何呈现世界)”可知,孩子提问后团队改变了解说方式。
34.推理判断题。根据第四段“Accessible cinema adds color to our lives and gives us a reason to go out. Chatting with other friends at these events is enjoyable, and it also gives us more to talk about with sighted people(无障碍影院为我们的生活增添了色彩,也让我们有了出门的理由。在这些活动中与朋友聊天非常愉快,同时也能让我们与视力正常的人们有更多话题可聊)”可知,放映活动提供了社交机会,帮助建立社交联系。
35.主旨大意题。根据第二段“The version screened for these attendees was created by Guangming Cinema. Since it was founded in 2017, the volunteer-driven organization has involved over 800 teachers and students in producing, promoting, and distributing accessible films. To adapt a single 90-minute movie, the team begins by watching it ten times, carefully studying every detail. Only then do they draft audio guidance, typically 20,000 to 30,000 characters long, and bring an accessible version of the movie to life.(为这些观众放映的版本由光明影院制作。自2017年成立以来,这个由志愿者主导的组织已动员了800多名教师和学生参与电影的制作、推广与分发工作,致力于让影片更易被理解。为了改编一部90分钟的电影,团队首先会观看十遍,仔细研究每一个细节。只有在完成细致分析后,他们才会编写音频导览,通常长度在2万至3万字之间,并将无障碍版本的电影生动呈现出来)”结合全文介绍了一个名为“光明影院”的志愿者组织,通过制作带有音频描述的电影,让视力受损者能够“观看”电影,并组织放映活动,提供社交体验,因此主旨是“一家影院使视力受损观众能看电影”(这里的“影院”指光明影院这一组织)。

【答案】
56.an 57.Watching 58.has achieved 59.on/upon 60.What 61.giving 62.incredibly 63.before 64.grown-ups 65.our
【导语】主要介绍电影《南京照相馆》,讲述影片背景、上映反响以及带给观众的历史与和平教育意义。
【详解】56.考查冠词。句意:《南京照相馆》,英文名为“Dead to Rights”,是一部极具感染力且意义深刻的电影。film为可数名词单数,空前无限定词,结合句意,此处表示“一部极具感染力且意义深刻的电影”为泛指,且extremely是以元音音素开头的单词,所以用不定冠词an。
57.考查非谓语动词。句意:观看这样一部历史电影有助于我们感受历史的重量。此处作句子主语,用动名词watching泛指“观看电影”这一行为,位于句首,首字母需大写。
58.考查动词时态。句意:自7月25日全国上映以来,它取得了亮眼的成绩,不仅收获高票房,还在豆瓣获得高分。此处为谓语动词,根据时间状语Since its nationwide release on July 25th可知,此处强调从过去持续到现在的结果,要用现在完成时,其结构为“have/has +过去分词”,主语it是第三人称单数,所以谓语动词为has achieved。
59.考查介词。句意:许多观众在观看震撼的画面时反思和平的价值。此处为固定搭配reflect on/upon,意为“反思;思考”,所以此处为介词on/upon。
60.考查主语从句。句意:最打动观众的是刘昊然饰演的苏流昌这个角色。此处引导主语从句,从句中缺少主语,表示“……的事物”,所以用连接代词what,位于句首,首字母需大写。
61.考查非谓语动词。句意:起初,他几乎无法抵抗向恐惧屈服。此处为固定搭配resist doing sth.,意为“抵抗做某事”,所以give使用动名词形式giving。
62.考查副词。句意:然而,在照片中看到日军令人难以置信的残酷罪行之后,他逐渐找回勇气,决定反抗侵略者。此处修饰形容词cruel,要用副词形式,incredible的副词为incredibly。
63.考查连词。句意:我们要完全理解那段黑暗时期的伤痛,还需要很长一段时间。此处为固定句型It will be a long time before...,意为“要过很久才……”,所以用连词before。
64.考查名词复数。句意:即使在今天,许多成年人仍然选择带着孩子观看这部电影,因为历史教育永不停歇。grown-up是可数名词,many后接可数名词复数,所以用复数形式grown-ups。
65.考查形容词性物主代词。句意:我们传承这段记忆是毫无疑问的。空后为动名词短语passing down this memory,前面需要物主代词作定语,we对应的形容词性物主代词是our。

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。
Tom was the boy who never got called on. In class, he pressed himself against the chair, hoping to be invisible. When the teacher asked a question, his eyes dropped to the desk. Reading was worse. Words on a page seemed to swim away from him. He would stare at a sentence for minutes, his throat tight. His classmates turned pages with ease. He got stuck on the first page, struggling with every word.
Mr. Kirui, the school principal, noticed. Instead of leaving him to sink, he did something small. After school one day, he found Tom sitting alone by the library window, running his fingers over the table. “Come with me,” he said quietly. “No pressure.”
The library smelled of old paper and dust. Sunlight streamed through the blinds. Mr. Kirui pulled out a pile of thin books — picture books, early readers, stories with big letters and white space. Tom’s face burned. “These are for little kids,” he mumbled, staring at his shoes. “Trust me,” Mr. Kirui said. “Start here.”
Tom opened the first one. His finger traced the lines. He read aloud, slowly, tripping over easy words. Mr. Kirui never corrected him. He just leaned back and listened. Day after day, after class they sat in the same corner — the one by the window where the light fell softly. Tom’s voice grew steadier. He started to ask questions about the stories. He borrowed books without being asked. One afternoon, Mr. Kirui watched him read a full page without stopping. The boy didn’t even notice the principal’s smile.
A week later, the school announced a Read Out Loud Competition, where students could choose their own reading materials. “Any volunteer?” The teacher asked. Hands shot up. Tom’s heart raced. His hand lifted slightly and then fell back to his lap.
注意:
(1)续写词数应为150个左右;
(2)请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。
After class, Tom found Mr. Kirui in the library.

On competition day, Tom stepped onto the stage with a thin book.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】One Possible Version
After class, Tom found Mr. Kirui in the library. Staring at his shoes, he expressed his wish to join, his throat tight. “But they’ll laugh at my thin book,” he whispered. Mr. Kirui patted his shoulder gently. “Just read it well. That’s enough.” Encouraged by the principal’s warm words, Tom finally signed up. Every afternoon, he returned to the sunlit corner, reading the same pages aloud repeatedly. With Mr. Kirui listening quietly nearby, Tom’s once shaky voice gradually grew firm, ready for the stage.
On competition day, Tom stepped onto the stage with a thin book. Facing the crowd, he swallowed hard. He began with a trembling whisper, but soon his voice steadied. Absorbed in the familiar story, Tom turned the pages with ease, the words no longer swimming away. Finishing the last sentence without a single pause, he met deafening applause. In the audience, Mr. Kirui nodded with a proud smile. Standing in the spotlight, Tom realized the once invisible boy had finally stepped out of the shadows, full of true confidence.

(本题10分)Meng Xiang was crazy about films and music during his childhood. When he started college, he dreamed to make films that could combine his love for storytelling and interest in music.
His biggest challenge came when he planned to make a film about a tennis player. Since no one would offer him money for a 2-hour film, Meng and his college friends tried to make a shorter one. They bought a second-hand camera and used old things instead of expensive equipment. They even made a shelf on their own to support the camera.
Meng and his friends worked hard, rain or shine. When filming the tennis player, they ran after him in the summer sun. If it rained and they couldn’t film outside, they hung bed sheets (床单) on the walls in an empty room to set up a simple studio (摄影棚). This 12-minute film got much attention. The teachers and students in their college liked the music they created for it.
After that, Meng had another idea: to make a musical film. But musicals weren’t popular in college, and many said it wouldn’t work. Instead of listening to the doubts, Meng and his team spent weeks writing new songs and making a test video. To film the moving scenes, they fixed a smartphone on a skateboard and pushed it. The actors’ hair was blowing in the wind while they were dancing and singing. The loud voice and laughter of the team filled the air.
Their musical film was well received and won several awards at a film festival. As Meng said, “Making films isn’t about having the best equipment or famous actors. It’s about finding new ways to tell your story. Our team is planning to make a special documentary about the environment. And I can’t wait to write music for it.”
24.(2.5分)How would Meng combine his hobbies according to paragraph 1?
A.By creating music. B.By starting a team.
C.By going to college. D.By producing films.
25.(2.5分)What was the team’s biggest challenge?
A.Few partners. B.People’s doubts.
C.The money problem. D.Long working time.
26.(2.5分)Why did Meng’s team set up a simple studio?
A.To work on rainy days. B.To get much attention.
C.To follow the tennis player. D.To film a moving scene.
27.(2.5分)What can be learned from the last sentence of paragraph 4?
A.The actors were popular. B.The team enjoyed the process.
C.Meng wanted to make another film. D.The students had good equipment.
(本题10分)Beaverton is home to a large group of hair-covered, wood-chewing creatures. The mayor decides their forest should be removed for a highway. Mabel, a teenage activist, is angry about this. After she discovers a project allowing her to transfer her awareness into a robotic animal, she befriends the creatures and encourages them to fight with teeth and nails.
This is the fun setting of the film Hoppers. Animation films (动画电影) are typically aimed at small children, but they are hugely popular with audiences of all ages. In 2024, Inside Out 2 became the highest-earning animated film of all time, taking $1.7 billion globally. In early 2025, it was overtaken by Ne Zha 2, which went on to earn over $2 billion. Zootopia 2, released later that year, made $1.9 billion. How did animation become such a draw?
One reason is that storytellers have aimed for wide appeal. Many animated films touch on universal themes — the struggles of growing up or the experience of losing a loved one. The best movies usually follow the “22 Rules for Storytelling” created by a Pixar artist. She advised focusing on characters and emotion. Viewers admire a character for trying more than for their successes.
Another factor is animation’s global reach. Such films generally avoid unsuitable content (内容). They also translate well across cultures, with fantastic settings or simple ideas that are not culturally specific. Characters’ faces are also stylised and expressive.
Also, distributors (经销商) have chosen the time wisely. The biggest animated films are released during school holidays. In 2022, 44% of animated films from top American studios went straight to streaming; in 2025 just 8% did. “A trip to the cinema is an easy win for parents who want to get their children out of the house,” says an industry analyst.
Moreover, clever scriptwriters include jokes for adults to enjoy — with or without kids together. Film series tap into nostalgia (怀旧) too. Audiences become less interested when studios go too far from these rules. It turns out to be a great idea to work with animals and children.
28.(2.5分)How does the author lead into the topic?
A.By listing box office data. B.By comparing hit movies.
C.By presenting a creative plot. D.By explaining a famous theory.
29.(2.5分)What does the data in paragraph 2 show?
A.The huge success of animations. B.The cost of animation production.
C.Live films’ lead in market income. D.Movie preferences in different areas.
30.(2.5分)What matters most in Pixar’s “22 Rules”?
A.Hot topics for all age groups. B.Rich storyline and social meaning.
C.Perfect and successful endings. D.Figures’ emotions and personalities.
31.(2.5分)What does the author highlight about animated films in the last two paragraphs?
A.Their global influence and great popularity.
B.Their content features and release strategies.
C.Their wise balance between traditions and box office.
D.Their cultural adaptability and comments received.
(本题10分)On a cold Wednesday morning, Xu Wei, who is visually impaired (受损的), joined 40 other attendees to “watch” the film called One and Only. The experience inside the room differed from a regular movie showing. During gaps between dialogue and sound in the film, detailed audio descriptions explained what was happening — describing the scenery, the action and even the body language.
The version screened for these attendees was created by Guangming Cinema. Since it was founded in 2017, the volunteer-driven organization has involved over 800 teachers and students in producing, promoting, and distributing accessible films. To adapt a single 90-minute movie, the team begins by watching it ten times, carefully studying every detail. Only then do they draft audio guidance, typically 20,000 to 30,000 characters long, and bring an accessible version of the movie to life.
It is never easy to “tell” a movie to those with vision loss. Hu Fang, a project volunteer, was once asked by a child, “What is the color red?” This question revealed how little sighted narrators understand about the experience of visually impaired moviegoers. From then on, Hu’s team ensured their descriptions fit the film and reflected how the world is perceived through sound.
Over the years, the team have organized many screenings nationwide. To reach more audiences, they work closely with local disability organizations and schools. They provide the movies and support, while partners host the screenings and connect with local audiences. These screenings offer more than movies — they also deliver a valuable social experience. “Accessible cinema adds color to our lives and gives us a reason to go out. Chatting with other friends at these events is enjoyable, and it also gives us more to talk about with sighted people,” said Xu Wei.
Looking ahead, Xu hopes that increased accessible guidance will allow people with various disabilities to better enjoy films, exhibitions, museums and other cultural experiences, giving everyone equal access to the arts.
32.(2.5分)What can we learn about Xu Wei from paragraph 1?
A.He worked as a narrator for the blind. B.He discovered a film’s deeper significance.
C.He enjoyed a standard opera screening. D.He watched a film with audio descriptions.
33.(2.5分)What did Hu Fang and her team do after hearing the child’s question?
A.They learned how to tell the color. B.They changed their narration way.
C.They gave priority to others’ feelings. D.They took the description of colors seriously.
34.(2.5分)What can be inferred from Xu Wei’s words in paragraph 4?
A.Audio descriptions still need improvement.
B.Accessible cinemas should be more widespread.
C.Screening events help build social connections.
D.Sighted people lack awareness of the blind’s needs.
35.(2.5分)What is the main idea of the text?
A.Volunteers’ filmmaking faces many challenges.
B.A movie theater is strongly supporting the disabled.
C.Audio descriptions explain movie dialogues clearly.
D.A cinema enables visually-impaired audience to watch films.

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。
Tom was the boy who never got called on. In class, he pressed himself against the chair, hoping to be invisible. When the teacher asked a question, his eyes dropped to the desk. Reading was worse. Words on a page seemed to swim away from him. He would stare at a sentence for minutes, his throat tight. His classmates turned pages with ease. He got stuck on the first page, struggling with every word.
Mr. Kirui, the school principal, noticed. Instead of leaving him to sink, he did something small. After school one day, he found Tom sitting alone by the library window, running his fingers over the table. “Come with me,” he said quietly. “No pressure.”
The library smelled of old paper and dust. Sunlight streamed through the blinds. Mr. Kirui pulled out a pile of thin books — picture books, early readers, stories with big letters and white space. Tom’s face burned. “These are for little kids,” he mumbled, staring at his shoes. “Trust me,” Mr. Kirui said. “Start here.”
Tom opened the first one. His finger traced the lines. He read aloud, slowly, tripping over easy words. Mr. Kirui never corrected him. He just leaned back and listened. Day after day, after class they sat in the same corner — the one by the window where the light fell softly. Tom’s voice grew steadier. He started to ask questions about the stories. He borrowed books without being asked. One afternoon, Mr. Kirui watched him read a full page without stopping. The boy didn’t even notice the principal’s smile.
A week later, the school announced a Read Out Loud Competition, where students could choose their own reading materials. “Any volunteer?” The teacher asked. Hands shot up. Tom’s heart raced. His hand lifted slightly and then fell back to his lap.
注意:
(1)续写词数应为150个左右;
(2)请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。
After class, Tom found Mr. Kirui in the library.
