Joe thought red, the color of Liverpool FC, was great, while Arthur, born a few seconds earlier, believed blue, the color of Everton FC, was much better. This silly argument about football teams happened almost every day, which annoyed their mother a lot. One Saturday afternoon, the two boys were playing football with friends on an open space by the roadside, when a car suddenly turned a corner at high speed, hit the kerb, and knocked down four children, including the twins. Both were rushed to hospital. Arthur was only slightly hurt, but Joe took a heavy blow to the head and fell into unconsciousness. After an uncomfortable night, Arthur was allowed to go home the next day. However, instead of resting, he went straight to Joe’s room. He took Joe’s red pyjama (睡衣裤) out from under the pillow. “He’ll need it,” Arthur told his mother with his voice trembling. “It’ll make him better. I want him home.” Their mother took the item to the hospital and dressed Joe in the red pyjama. The following day, Arthur returned, wearing one of Joe’s red shirts. He sat beside his brother’s bed, held Joe’s hand, and began to sing “You’ll Never Walk Alone” softly to wake his brother up, saying he would never argue again. Suddenly, Joe’s face turned. He opened his eyes, looked at Arthur, and smiled weakly. “It’s only a game,” he whispered. “I’ll always love you, too.” The doctor arrived and, after a quick examination, announced that Joe was recovering. A week later, Joe fully recovered. One day, before going to watch a match with their father, he received a Liverpool badge from Arthur, who wished his team good luck. Joe waved back and said, “Thanks. And I hope your blue team does well today. You sing beautifully, you know.” Watching them from the window, their mother was moved to tears.

It’s a festival that feels both timely and necessary. In an age of deliberately designed online lives, it offers something genuine: the chance to light a campfire, learn a craft from an expert, share stories face-to-face, or simply enjoy a moment of collective silence under the stars. The event, held on a beautiful country estate in Wales, is built on the belief that happiness is found in participation and creation, not just consumption. Its programme, accordingly, is a thoughtfully curated (筹办) mix of the hands-on and the inspirational. You might find yourself learning to forge a knife one hour, and listening to a celebrated author read by the river the next. There are workshops in leatherworking and woodcraft, opportunities to try wild swimming, and countless campfires around which strangers become friends through conversation. The food stalls prioritize local and seasonal produce, and the music stages feature everything from folk to soul, often inviting audience participation. “We wanted to create a space where people could switch off from the digital noise and reconnect with their own hands, minds, and with each other,” says Matthews. “It’s about the joy of making something, the satisfaction of learning a skill your ancestors might have known, and the deep connections that form when you share that experience. ” The festival challenges the modern idea of entertainment as a passive activity. It’s a cure for the speed and isolation of contemporary life, promoting slowness, skill-sharing, and community. It’s an example of a richer, more connected way of living. 28．(2.5分)Why did the author describe the festival as timely and necessary? A．Because it promotes Welsh tourism. B．Because it was founded by a famous singer. C．Because it promotes hands-on activities. D．Because it resists artificial online lives. 29．(2.5分)What is the core value of the Good Life Experience? A．Passive enjoyment of wonderful scenery. B．Consumption of expensive local produce. C．Active participation and mutual connection. D．Promotion of digital entertainment culture. 30．(2.5分)What can we learn about the programs of the festival? A．They focus only on practical craft skills. B．They encourage audience involvement. C．They are mainly commercial performances. D．They are designed for professional artists. 31．(2.5分)What can we infer from Cerys Matthews’ words? A．She hopes people can escape digital distractions. B．She thinks ancestors’ skills are outdated. C．She prefers online interaction to face-to-face talks. D．She aims to make the festival a commercial success. （本题10分）Leaving the childhood comforts of kindergarten (幼儿园) and moving on to “real school” can be “scary”. So, on their first day of school when entering the first grade, German children traditionally receive a cone-shaped (锥形的) bag. And the bag, called the Schultute, is always filled with treats and toys to make starting school much sweeter. In the early 1800s in Jena, children were told there was a candy tree in the teacher’s yard, and that when they were old enough to reach it, they could start school. From there the custom spread to Berlin. Back then, the cone was simply a paper one — like those from candy stores — filled with sugary treats. After World War I, the custom spread south and west in Germany. The well-known German author Erich Kastner wrote in his 1957 book, When I Was a Young Man, “When I was a child, I received a bag filled with sweets…” But up through the 1960s, it was not a common practice. One thing to note: the Schultute is always opened at home, not at school. This practice was especially meaningful during difficult times, when the cone might hold some simple handmade gifts. And at home, with no one else watching, the child could see how much thought went into every little gift — each one saying, “You matter!”. Today, parents in Germany still buy the Schultute and fill it with a mix of practical school supplies — like pencils, crayons, and notebooks — along with small toys and sweets. Some parents choose to add surprises, such as colorful stickers, fun erasers, or a special book, while others prefer to keep it simple. It’s up to the parents to decide the contents (内容物). In my opinion, the Schultute doesn’t need to be expensive but remains necessary, as it is a lovely tradition that celebrates a child growing up. 32．(2.5分)What is the main purpose of the Schultute tradition? A．To provide school supplies for kids. B．To celebrate the end of kindergarten. C．To praise kids for their good performances. D．To make kids less worried about the new start. 33．(2.5分)What is mainly discussed about the Schultute tradition in paragraph 2? A．Its important changes. B．The way of celebrating it. C．Its historical development. D．The reason for its popularity. 34．(2.5分)Why was it meaningful to open the Schultute at home in hard times? A．It could save money. B．It made kids feel valued. C．It avoided showing off. D．It kept the gifts a secret. 35．(2.5分)What can be learned about the contents of the Schultute? A．They show kids’ preferences. B．They meet certain standards. C．They can be both useful and enjoyable. D．They are expected to be shared among kids. （本题12.5分）Easter is a very popular holiday in Christian countries. 36(2.5分) Easter is a “movable” holiday, as it is celebrated on the first Sunday following the full moon after the vernal equinox. Easter is known mostly as a Christian holiday. 37(2.5分) The holiday was first meant to celebrate the coming of spring and to welcome the birth of plants, animals and all the bright flowers. 38(2.5分) Then later the eggs were given as gifts. Sometimes the eggs were exchanged by lovers. Giving special eggs to those who they love is very similar to giving presents on Valentine’s Day. Most countries celebrate Easter by decorating eggs, getting together with family, eating chocolate and sweets and playing egg hunts. Many children enjoy Easter because of egg hunts. 39(2.5分) Then the children run around searching for them. The most famous egg hunt is done every year on the lawn of the White House in Washington D．C． For many children, Easter and the Easter Bunny are second only to Christmas and Santa Claus in popularity. The Easter Bunny, a young rabbit, is a character that represents everything wonderful for spring: life and playfulness. The Easter Bunny first came from Germany and was brought to North America later. 40(2.5分) There are even Easter Bunnies made of chocolate! A．Others have hidden eggs around the houses or outside. B．It’s a holiday to celebrate Jesus Christ’s return to life. C．However, many celebrations during this time have nothing to do with Christianity. D．During Easter in Germany, a lamb is a popular symbol. E．The most interesting part of the holiday is looking for eggs. F．The practice of painting eggs was first done to represent the coming of spring. G．It’s a very popular character for Easter. 三、完形填空 （本题15分）I’m from Turkey.

My heart beat wildly — would “Lightning” still be there? There, on the topshelf, was the silver-gray “Lightning” model airplane, sitting quietly. Its blue flame (火焰) patterns on the body looked almost alive, as if ready to shoot through the sky at any moment. When I gently turned the propeller (螺旋桨), it made a weak humming sound, like a real engine warming up. Every time I passed by the toy store, my feet would always stick here, as if glued to the floor. “You’ve been standing here for five minutes,” Dad’s voice came from behind, making me jump. “This is the third time this week you’ve gotten stuck just passing by. Next time, I’ll let your brother come in with you to buy writing materials, so you won’t keep getting distracted.” My heart sank. Chris, my older brother, hated it when I dawdled (磨蹭). He’d definitely tap his foot impatiently and rush me to leave quickly, leaving no time for me to even glance at “Lightning”. The next day after school, Chris was indeed sent by Dad to be my “supervisor”. “Buy the notebook and then we’re leaving. Don’t go looking around aimlessly,” he warned as he handed me the change, his tone firm. But I held the money tightly in my fist, and took a roundabout route to the “Lightning”. My fingertips shook slightly as they gently brushed the cold glass of the display case. “Aren’t you being childish? You’re already in the third grade and still playing with models?” My brother’s voice suddenly popped up, making me turn around in a panic. I caught sight of him looking at me, but there was no anger in his eyes. “It’s called Lightning,” I explained in a small voice, pointing eagerly. “Look at the sticker on the wing — it’s the supersonic (超音速) pattern they talked about in Aviation Knowledge. I know it costs over 300…our family won’t buy it…I just want to check if it’s still here.” 注意： 1．续写词数应为150个左右； 2．请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Chris stared in the direction my finger was pointing for a while. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ On Christmas morning, I found a long, thin box under the tree. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 2 / 2 2 / 2 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $听力考试正式开始。Hello, i'm a student at the village school.

Welcome to our show, Professor Stone. M: To begin with, I’d like to tell a story from my own life several years ago when my grandparents were well into their eighties. They were no longer able to care for themselves very well. My grandfather was afraid of leaving the only home they had known for the past sixty years. The idea of having to sell their home and move into a retirement home was an extremely painful experience for them. Indeed, old age for them and many older Americans can mean not only the possible failure of one’s health but the loss of identity and self-worth. W: Yes, it’s true. What do you have to say about the problem of old age? M: Many experts have given talks here that have focused on the medical care and the development of public services for senior citizens today. I’d like to focus my comments on the meaningful roles the elderly can play and should play in our society. （本题6分）听下面一段对话，回答以下小题。 13．(1.5分)Why does the man speaker visit the bank?

Let me tell you a little bit about the festival itself. When it originally started back in 1976, it was actually called the Festival of Festivals. The aim back then has not changed much. The original organizers wanted to show films from other festivals around the world. They wanted to build a cultural center for international films in Canada. The festival then grew in size and became well known among both filmmakers and film industry professionals. After that, it changed its name in 1994 to what we have now. In 2010, we moved into our own building, the TIFF Bell Lightbox, which has five floors filled with cinemas, galleries of film art, as well as a film library. The festival runs in September, but the building is open all year round. It runs workshops with local filmmakers and helps raise money for films from first-time directors. Now, let’s see some parts from all the films on offer this year. 二、阅读理解 （本题7.5分）Friendship Magazine Many people celebrate Friendship Day although they may celebrate it on different dates.

Joe thought red, the color of Liverpool FC, was great, while Arthur, born a few seconds earlier, believed blue, the color of Everton FC, was much better. This silly argument about football teams happened almost every day, which annoyed their mother a lot. One Saturday afternoon, the two boys were playing football with friends on an open space by the roadside, when a car suddenly turned a corner at high speed, hit the kerb, and knocked down four children, including the twins. Both were rushed to hospital. Arthur was only slightly hurt, but Joe took a heavy blow to the head and fell into unconsciousness. After an uncomfortable night, Arthur was allowed to go home the next day. However, instead of resting, he went straight to Joe’s room. He took Joe’s red pyjama (睡衣裤) out from under the pillow. “He’ll need it,” Arthur told his mother with his voice trembling. “It’ll make him better. I want him home.” Their mother took the item to the hospital and dressed Joe in the red pyjama. The following day, Arthur returned, wearing one of Joe’s red shirts. He sat beside his brother’s bed, held Joe’s hand, and began to sing “You’ll Never Walk Alone” softly to wake his brother up, saying he would never argue again. Suddenly, Joe’s face turned. He opened his eyes, looked at Arthur, and smiled weakly. “It’s only a game,” he whispered. “I’ll always love you, too.” The doctor arrived and, after a quick examination, announced that Joe was recovering. A week later, Joe fully recovered. One day, before going to watch a match with their father, he received a Liverpool badge from Arthur, who wished his team good luck. Joe waved back and said, “Thanks. And I hope your blue team does well today. You sing beautifully, you know.” Watching them from the window, their mother was moved to tears.

(Joe认为红色——利物浦队的颜色——很棒，而早出生几秒的Arthur认为蓝色——埃弗顿队的颜色——要好得多。)”可知，这对双胞胎喜欢不同的足球队。 25．推理判断题。根据第三段中“He took Joe’s red pyjama (睡衣裤) out from under the pillow. “He’ll need it,” Arthur told his mother with his voice trembling. “It’ll make him better. I want him home.” (他把Joe的红色睡衣裤从枕头底下拿出来。Arthur用颤抖的声音告诉母亲：“他会需要它的。这会让他好起来。我想让他回家。”)”和第四段中“The following day, Arthur returned, wearing one of Joe’s red shirts. He sat beside his brother’s bed, held Joe’s hand, and began to sing “You’ll Never Walk Alone” softly to wake his brother up, saying he would never argue again. (第二天，Arthur回来了，穿着Joe的一件红衬衫。他坐在哥哥的床边，握着Joe的手，开始轻声唱《你永远不会独行》来叫醒哥哥，并说他再也不会争吵了。)”可知，Arthur拿出Joe的红色睡衣是为了给Joe精神上的支持。 26．推理判断题。根据第五段“A week later, Joe fully recovered. One day, before going to watch a match with their father, he received a Liverpool badge from Arthur, who wished his team good luck. Joe waved back and said, “Thanks.

You sing beautifully, you know.” (一周后，Joe完全康复了。有一天，在和父亲一起去看比赛之前，他收到了Arthur送的一枚利物浦队徽，Arthur祝愿他的球队好运。Joe挥手回应道：“谢谢。我也希望你今天支持的蓝色球队表现出色。你知道吗，你唱歌很好听。”)”可知，Joe回家后兄弟俩相互祝对方支持的球队好运，不再争论，说明他们对彼此更加友好了。 27．推理判断题。通读全文，结合最后一段中“Watching them from the window, their mother was moved to tears. She knew the twin brothers would always stand by each other, for they would never walk alone. (他们的母亲从窗户里看到这一幕，感动得热泪盈眶。她知道这对双胞胎兄弟永远会彼此支持，因为他们永远不会独行。)”可知，文章通过讲述兄弟俩从为球队争吵到在危难时刻互相支持的故事，展现了家庭之爱的重要性。 （本题10分）Founded by singer, author and broadcaster Cerys Matthews, the Good Life Experience is all about connecting guests with things that really matter, through music, food, literature, ideas, workshops and the great outdoors. It’s a festival that feels both timely and necessary. In an age of deliberately designed online lives, it offers something genuine: the chance to light a campfire, learn a craft from an expert, share stories face-to-face, or simply enjoy a moment of collective silence under the stars. The event, held on a beautiful country estate in Wales, is built on the belief that happiness is found in participation and creation, not just consumption. Its programme, accordingly, is a thoughtfully curated (筹办) mix of the hands-on and the inspirational. You might find yourself learning to forge a knife one hour, and listening to a celebrated author read by the river the next. There are workshops in leatherworking and woodcraft, opportunities to try wild swimming, and countless campfires around which strangers become friends through conversation. The food stalls prioritize local and seasonal produce, and the music stages feature everything from folk to soul, often inviting audience participation. “We wanted to create a space where people could switch off from the digital noise and reconnect with their own hands, minds, and with each other,” says Matthews. “It’s about the joy of making something, the satisfaction of learning a skill your ancestors might have known, and the deep connections that form when you share that experience. ” The festival challenges the modern idea of entertainment as a passive activity. It’s a cure for the speed and isolation of contemporary life, promoting slowness, skill-sharing, and community. It’s an example of a richer, more connected way of living. 28．(2.5分)Why did the author describe the festival as timely and necessary? A．Because it promotes Welsh tourism. B．Because it was founded by a famous singer. C．Because it promotes hands-on activities. D．Because it resists artificial online lives. 29．(2.5分)What is the core value of the Good Life Experience? A．Passive enjoyment of wonderful scenery. B．Consumption of expensive local produce. C．Active participation and mutual connection. D．Promotion of digital entertainment culture. 30．(2.5分)What can we learn about the programs of the festival? A．They focus only on practical craft skills. B．They encourage audience involvement. C．They are mainly commercial performances. D．They are designed for professional artists. 31．(2.5分)What can we infer from Cerys Matthews’ words? A．She hopes people can escape digital distractions. B．She thinks ancestors’ skills are outdated. C．She prefers online interaction to face-to-face talks. D．She aims to make the festival a commercial success. 【答案】28．D 29．C 30．B 31．A 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章讲述Cerys Matthews创办的美好人生体验节在威尔士举办，以线下真实体验为核心，倡导参与创造与联结，对抗数字生活的浮躁与孤独。 28．推理判断题。根据第二段“In an age of deliberately designed online lives, it offers something genuine: the chance to light a campfire, learn a craft from an expert, share stories face-to-face, or simply enjoy a moment of collective silence under the stars.(在这个刻意打造线上生活的时代，它提供了真实的体验：有机会点燃篝火，向专家学习手艺，面对面分享故事，或只是在星空下享受片刻的集体宁静。)”可知，该节日在当下及时且必要，是因为它抵制虚假的线上生活，提供真实的线下体验。故选D项。 29．细节理解题。根据第三段“The event, held on a beautiful country estate in Wales, is built on the belief that happiness is found in participation and creation, not just consumption. (这场活动举办于威尔士一处风景优美的乡村庄园，其创办理念是：幸福源于参与和创造，而非单纯的索取。)”以及最后一段“It’s a cure for the speed and isolation of contemporary life, promoting slowness, skill-sharing, and community.(这一活动是治愈当代生活节奏过快与疏离感的良方，倡导慢生活、技艺共享与社群联结。)”可知，美好人生体验节的核心价值是主动参与和彼此联结。故选C项。 30．细节理解题。根据第三段“Its programme, accordingly, is a thoughtfully curated (筹办) mix of the hands-on and the inspirational. (因此，该活动的日程安排，是经精心策划的实践体验与灵感启迪的融合之作。)”和“The food stalls prioritize local and seasonal produce, and the music stages feature everything from folk to soul, often inviting audience participation.(美食摊位主打本地时令食材，音乐舞台汇聚民谣、灵乐等各类曲风，还常常邀请观众参与互动。)”可知，该节日的活动项目鼓励观众参与其中。故选B项。 31．推理判断题。根据第四段“We wanted to create a space where people could switch off from the digital noise and reconnect with their own hands, minds, and with each other,(我们希望打造一个空间，让人们能远离数字噪音，重新与自己的双手、思想以及彼此联结，)”可知，Cerys Matthews希望人们能摆脱数字信息的干扰。故选A项。 （本题10分）Leaving the childhood comforts of kindergarten (幼儿园) and moving on to “real school” can be “scary”. So, on their first day of school when entering the first grade, German children traditionally receive a cone-shaped (锥形的) bag. And the bag, called the Schultute, is always filled with treats and toys to make starting school much sweeter. In the early 1800s in Jena, children were told there was a candy tree in the teacher’s yard, and that when they were old enough to reach it, they could start school. From there the custom spread to Berlin. Back then, the cone was simply a paper one — like those from candy stores — filled with sugary treats. After World War I, the custom spread south and west in Germany. The well-known German author Erich Kastner wrote in his 1957 book, When I Was a Young Man, “When I was a child, I received a bag filled with sweets…” But up through the 1960s, it was not a common practice. One thing to note: the Schultute is always opened at home, not at school. This practice was especially meaningful during difficult times, when the cone might hold some simple handmade gifts. And at home, with no one else watching, the child could see how much thought went into every little gift — each one saying, “You matter!”. Today, parents in Germany still buy the Schultute and fill it with a mix of practical school supplies — like pencils, crayons, and notebooks — along with small toys and sweets. Some parents choose to add surprises, such as colorful stickers, fun erasers, or a special book, while others prefer to keep it simple. It’s up to the parents to decide the contents (内容物). In my opinion, the Schultute doesn’t need to be expensive but remains necessary, as it is a lovely tradition that celebrates a child growing up. 32．(2.5分)What is the main purpose of the Schultute tradition? A．To provide school supplies for kids. B．To celebrate the end of kindergarten. C．To praise kids for their good performances. D．To make kids less worried about the new start. 33．(2.5分)What is mainly discussed about the Schultute tradition in paragraph 2? A．Its important changes. B．The way of celebrating it. C．Its historical development. D．The reason for its popularity. 34．(2.5分)Why was it meaningful to open the Schultute at home in hard times? A．It could save money. B．It made kids feel valued. C．It avoided showing off. D．It kept the gifts a secret. 35．(2.5分)What can be learned about the contents of the Schultute? A．They show kids’ preferences. B．They meet certain standards. C．They can be both useful and enjoyable. D．They are expected to be shared among kids. 【答案】32．D 33．C 34．B 35．C 【导语】本文主要介绍德国一个传统习俗：孩子上小学一年级第一天会收到Schultute（开学锥形礼包）。文章讲述了它的起源、发展历史、打开的讲究、如今礼包里面的物品，最后作者认为这个传统不必昂贵，但很有意义，用来庆祝孩子长大。 【详解】32．推理判断题。根据第一段“So, on their first day of school when entering the first grade, German children traditionally receive a cone-shaped (锥形的) bag. And the bag, called the Schultute, is always filled with treats and toys to make starting school much sweeter.(因此，按照德国传统，孩子升入一年级开学第一天，会收到一个锥形袋子，叫做Schultute(开学礼包)。袋子里装满零食和玩具，让开学这件事变得美好愉快。)”可知，“Schultute”传统的主要目的是让孩子对新学期的到来不再担忧。 33．主旨大意题。根据第二段“In the early 1800s in Jena, children were told there was a candy tree in the teacher’s yard, and that when they were old enough to reach it, they could start school. From there the custom spread to Berlin.(19 世纪初，在耶拿，大人们告诉孩子们，老师的院子里长着一棵糖果树。等孩子长到够得到这棵树的时候，就可以去上学。这个习俗从耶拿传到柏林。)”可知，第二段主要讲的是“Schultute”的历史发展。 34．细节理解题。根据第三段“This practice was especially meaningful during difficult times, when the cone might hold some simple handmade gifts. And at home, with no one else watching, the child could see how much thought went into every little gift — each one saying, “You matter!”.(在物资匮乏的年代，这一习惯意义非凡，袋子里装的或许只是简单的手工礼物。在家中，没有旁人围观，孩子能够感受到每一件小礼物所倾注的心意，每一份礼物都在传递：“你很重要！”)”可知，在困难时期，在家中举行“Schultute”仪式可以让孩子们感到被重视。   35．细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“Today, parents in Germany still buy the Schultute and fill it with a mix of practical school supplies — like pencils, crayons, and notebooks — along with small toys and sweets. Some parents choose to add surprises, such as colorful stickers, fun erasers, or a special book, while others prefer to keep it simple.(如今德国父母依旧会购置 Schultute，里面既有铅笔、蜡笔、笔记本这类实用学习用品，也搭配小玩具和糖果。有些家长会放上彩色贴纸、趣味橡皮、特别的书籍这类惊喜小物件，也有些家长喜欢简简单单。)”可知，“Schultute”的内容物既实用又有趣。   （本题12.5分）Easter is a very popular holiday in Christian countries. 36(2.5分) Easter is a “movable” holiday, as it is celebrated on the first Sunday following the full moon after the vernal equinox. Easter is known mostly as a Christian holiday. 37(2.5分) The holiday was first meant to celebrate the coming of spring and to welcome the birth of plants, animals and all the bright flowers. 38(2.5分) Then later the eggs were given as gifts. Sometimes the eggs were exchanged by lovers. Giving special eggs to those who they love is very similar to giving presents on Valentine’s Day. Most countries celebrate Easter by decorating eggs, getting together with family, eating chocolate and sweets and playing egg hunts. Many children enjoy Easter because of egg hunts. 39(2.5分) Then the children run around searching for them. The most famous egg hunt is done every year on the lawn of the White House in Washington D．C． For many children, Easter and the Easter Bunny are second only to Christmas and Santa Claus in popularity. The Easter Bunny, a young rabbit, is a character that represents everything wonderful for spring: life and playfulness. The Easter Bunny first came from Germany and was brought to North America later. 40(2.5分) There are even Easter Bunnies made of chocolate! A．Others have hidden eggs around the houses or outside. B．It’s a holiday to celebrate Jesus Christ’s return to life. C．However, many celebrations during this time have nothing to do with Christianity. D．During Easter in Germany, a lamb is a popular symbol. E．The most interesting part of the holiday is looking for eggs. F．The practice of painting eggs was first done to represent the coming of spring. G．It’s a very popular character for Easter. 【答案】36．B 37．C 38．F 39．A 40．G 【导语】文章主要介绍了复活节习俗的起源和发展变化以及各国复活节常见活动。 【详解】36．根据上文“Easter is a very popular holiday in Christian countries.(复活节是基督教国家中非常受欢迎的节日。) ”可知，上文提到基督教国家，B项“这是一个庆祝耶稣基督复活的节日。”解释复活节的基督教核心内涵，“It”指代 “Easter”。 37．根据上文“Easter is known mostly as a Christian holiday.(复活节通常被认为是一个基督教节日。)”和下文“The holiday was first meant to celebrate the coming of spring and to welcome the birth of plants, animals and all the bright flowers.(这个节日最初是为了庆祝春天的到来，迎接植物、动物和所有明艳花朵的新生。)”可知，上文讲基督教属性，下文转向古老的迎春民俗。C项“然而，这期间许多庆祝活动和基督教毫无关系。”起到转折过渡，引出非基督教的传统习俗。 38．根据下文“Then later the eggs were given as gifts. Sometimes the eggs were exchanged by lovers.(后来彩蛋就被当作礼物来赠送了。有时情侣之间也会互相交换彩蛋。)”可知，下文中的then later和上文形成时间顺序，F项“绘制彩蛋这一习俗最初用来象征春天的到来。”中的“first”与“then later”对应，且F项中的“painting eggs”引出彩蛋话题。 39．根据下文“Then the children run around searching for them.(然后孩子们四处跑动寻找它们。)”可知，下文提到寻找彩蛋，空处应提到藏彩蛋构成动作先后顺序。A项“其他人会把彩蛋藏在屋内各处或者户外。”中的“eggs”与下文中的“them”对应。 40．根据上文“The Easter Bunny first came from Germany and was brought to North America later.(复活节兔最早起源于德国，后来被带到了北美洲。)”和下文“There are even Easter Bunnies made of chocolate!(甚至还有用巧克力做成的复活节兔！)”可知，上文是对复活节兔子来历的介绍，说明它人气很高，顺势引出巧克力兔子的例子。G项“它是复活节非常受欢迎的形象。”中“It”指代“The Easter Bunny”。 三、完形填空 （本题15分）I’m from Turkey.

My heart beat wildly — would “Lightning” still be there? There, on the topshelf, was the silver-gray “Lightning” model airplane, sitting quietly. Its blue flame (火焰) patterns on the body looked almost alive, as if ready to shoot through the sky at any moment. When I gently turned the propeller (螺旋桨), it made a weak humming sound, like a real engine warming up. Every time I passed by the toy store, my feet would always stick here, as if glued to the floor. “You’ve been standing here for five minutes,” Dad’s voice came from behind, making me jump. “This is the third time this week you’ve gotten stuck just passing by. Next time, I’ll let your brother come in with you to buy writing materials, so you won’t keep getting distracted.” My heart sank. Chris, my older brother, hated it when I dawdled (磨蹭). He’d definitely tap his foot impatiently and rush me to leave quickly, leaving no time for me to even glance at “Lightning”. The next day after school, Chris was indeed sent by Dad to be my “supervisor”. “Buy the notebook and then we’re leaving. Don’t go looking around aimlessly,” he warned as he handed me the change, his tone firm. But I held the money tightly in my fist, and took a roundabout route to the “Lightning”. My fingertips shook slightly as they gently brushed the cold glass of the display case. “Aren’t you being childish? You’re already in the third grade and still playing with models?” My brother’s voice suddenly popped up, making me turn around in a panic. I caught sight of him looking at me, but there was no anger in his eyes. “It’s called Lightning,” I explained in a small voice, pointing eagerly. “Look at the sticker on the wing — it’s the supersonic (超音速) pattern they talked about in Aviation Knowledge. I know it costs over 300…our family won’t buy it…I just want to check if it’s still here.” 注意： 1．续写词数应为150个左右； 2．请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Chris stared in the direction my finger was pointing for a while. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ On Christmas morning, I found a long, thin box under the tree. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 例文 Chris stared in the direction my finger was pointing for a while. He leaned closer to the display case, looking at the price tag. “329 yuan,” he murmured, and then turned to me. “Let’s go to buy your notebook first.” His tone was softer than before. I nodded, unwillingly following him, but he didn’t rush me this time. On the way home, he asked, “That plane... does it really fly high?” I talked excitedly about its features, and he listened quietly, occasionally nodding. On Christmas morning, I found a long, thin box under the tree. My heart raced as I tore off the wrapping paper. There it was — “Lightning”, with its silver-gray body and blue flame patterns. A note stuck to it read: “For my little aviation fan. Merry Christmas.” I ran to my brother’s room, holding the plane. He scratched his head, smiling awkwardly. “I saved my pocket money,” he said. I hugged him tightly, feeling the model’s cold metal against my cheek, warmer than anything else. 【导语】本文以玩具飞机“Lightning”为线索展开，讲述三年级的作者一直默默喜欢商店里的一款昂贵飞机模型，却因家境普通不敢奢求，每次路过都会驻足观望。父亲让哥哥监督作者买文具，哥哥发现了作者的小心愿，默默记在心里，最终在圣诞节给作者带来惊喜的暖心故事。 【详解】1. 段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容可知，第一段可描写哥哥认真观察飞机模型、理解作者热爱航空的心意，内心暗自决定成全作者的心愿。 ②由第二段首句内容可知，第二段可描写作者打开礼盒发现心仪飞机模型，得知是哥哥用心准备的礼物，内心感动不已。 2. 续写线索：驻足观察 —— 理解心意 —— 默默筹备 —— 圣诞拆礼 —— 收获惊喜 —— 心生感动 3. 词汇激活 行为类 ①凑近：lean closer/draw near ②拥抱：hug/embrace 情绪类 ①激动的：excitedly/enthusiastically ②尴尬的：awkwardly/uncomfortably 【点睛】【高分句型 1】He leaned closer to the display case, looking at the price tag.
