Carved (雕刻) out of a single piece of stone weighing hundreds of tons, the Sphinx is the head of a man resting on the body of a lion. The nose, eyes and ears have been carved in accurate proportion (比例). That’s not easy for an object which is 72meters long and 20 meters high. The Sphinx was built in about 2500 BC. But no one knows what tools were used to build it. The Egyptians wrote very little about the building of the Sphinx. No one knows what the Sphinx looked like when it was first finished because both natural erosion (侵蚀) and people’s damage have changed its shape. Many earlier pictures of the Sphinx show it with wings, the body of a lion, and the face of a man. Today only the man and the lion can be seen. To this day, people can’t agree with each other on the true role of the Sphinx. 19. The writer wrote this text to tell us ________. A. some information about the Great Sphinx B. something about the Great Pyramid of Giza in Egypt C. what the Great Sphinx looks like today 20.

If 43. up 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了我们永远不要放弃目标的原因及其好处。 【39题详解】 句意：每当我们遇到困难或失败时，我们经常对自己说：“加油，永远不要放弃”。根据“...we meet with difficulty or failure, we often say to ourselves…”可知，此处需要一个引导时间状语从句的连词，表示“当……的时候”或“每当”，句首首字母大写。故填When/Whenever。 【40题详解】 句意：所以，依我看，我们应该永不放弃。根据“So, ...my opinion, we should never give up.”可知，“in my opinion”是固定短语，意为“依我看来”，所以此处用介词“in”。 【41题详解】 句意：另一个原因是，当我们努力实现目标时，我们会培养自信。根据“One reason is that…Another...is that…”可知，前文用了“One reason is that…”引出第一个原因，此处用“Another”修饰，表示“另一个原因”，与“One reason”相呼应。故填reason。 【42题详解】 句意：如果我们从不挑战自己，我们就会开始怀疑自己的能力。根据“...we never challenge ourselves, we will begin to doubt our abilities.”可知，前半句“我们从不挑战自己”是后半句“我们开始怀疑自己的能力”的条件，用“If”引导条件状语从句，句首首字母大写。故填If。 【43题详解】 句意：简而言之，永不放弃我们的目标是很重要的。根据“it is important to never give...our goals”可知，“give up”是固定短语，意为“放弃”，符合文章“永不放弃目标”的主旨。故填up。 (B) 请阅读下面语篇，根据其内容，用方框中所给词的正确形式填空，使其通顺、连贯，并将答案写在答题卡相应的位置上。方框中有两个词为多余项。 that get I catch see old who live mall put wise be One afternoon in a bookstore, I found a book called The Last Days of Old Beijing (《再会，老北京》) by American writer Michael Meyer. The title ____44____ my eye and made me think about my hometown Beijing and its past. Meyer’s writing takes ____45____ back in time to Beijing about 20 years ago. In 2005, Meyer moved into a shared courtyard (庭院) home in one of Beijing’s ____46____ neighborhoods, Dazhalan. There he taught English at a local school and became the only westerner there living among local people. This gave him a chance ____47____ close to the local culture. In the book, he describes the hutong and the shouts of street sellers in a lively way that makes you feel like you’re right there. Some of the great changes in this neighborhood ____48____ by Meyer. The old houses made way for high-rise buildings, shopping ____49____ and other symbols of modern city life. However, some parts of old Beijing’s culture have stayed strong in the face of the rapid change so far. People still kept traditions like ____50____ up Spring Festival couplets (对联) and artists worked hard to pass down skills like acrobatics (杂技). Meyer shows us how these traditions helped people hold on to (坚持) their roots (根脉) ____51____ as old buildings went away around them. I ____52____ born in Beijing in 2001, so I know more about the city’s modern side. Reading The Last Days of Old Beijing opened my eyes to new sides of the city ____53____ I hadn’t seen before. Those small things of daily life in the old neighborhoods touched my heart. It made me think about how we can keep our traditions alive while also moving forward with changes. 【答案】44. caught 45. me 46. oldest 47. to get 48. were seen 49. malls 50. putting 51. wisely 52. was 53. that 【解析】 【导语】本文介绍了《再会，老北京》这本书的内容，讲述该书作者迈克尔·梅耶在北京大栅栏的经历，记录老北京胡同的变迁，展现老城现代化发展中传统文化的留存，表达作者对城市发展与传统文化传承的思考。 【44题详解】 句意：这个书名吸引了我的目光，让我想起了我的家乡北京以及它的过往。固定搭配catch one’s eye表示“吸引某人的注意”，文章整体为一般过去时，catch的过去式是caught，方框内其他单词无法构成这个固定短语。 【45题详解】 句意：梅耶的文字把我带回到大约20年前的北京。动词takes后面要用人称代词宾格作宾语，I的宾格是me，take sb. back表示“把某人带回到”，符合句意。 【46题详解】 句意：2005年，梅耶搬进了北京最古老的街区之一大栅栏的一个合院。one of + the/名词所有格 + 形容词最高级 + 名词复数，表示“最……之一”，此处表示“最古老的街区”，old的最高级oldest，用来修饰neighborhoods。 【47题详解】 句意：这给了他近距离接触当地文化的机会。固定搭配a chance to do sth.表示“做某事的机会”，get close to是固定短语，意为“靠近、接触”，所以填to get。 【48题详解】 句意：这个街区里一些巨大的变化被梅耶记录下来。主语Some of the great changes和动词see之间是被动关系，表示“变化被梅耶看到、记录”，事情发生在过去，用一般过去时的被动语态，主语是复数，be动词用were，see的过去分词是seen，因此填were seen。 【49题详解】 句意：老房子让位给高楼、购物中心以及其他现代城市生活的标志。shopping mall是固定表达“购物中心”，and前后并列的high-rise buildings是复数，mall也要变为复数malls。 【50题详解】 句意：人们仍然保留着贴春联这样的传统，艺人们也努力传承杂技这类技艺。put up Spring Festival couplets是固定搭配“贴春联”，介词like后面接动名词，put变动名词putting。 【51题详解】 句意：梅耶向我们展示，当老建筑在他们身边消失的时候，这些传统是如何帮助人们明智地守住自己的根脉。这里需要副词修饰动词短语hold on to，此处表示“明智地守住根脉”，wise的副词形式wisely，表示“明智地”。 【52题详解】 句意：我2001年出生在北京，所以我更多了解这座城市现代化的一面。固定搭配be born表示“出生”，出生发生在过去，主语是I，be动词用was。 【53题详解】 句意：阅读《再会，老北京》让我看到这座城市我以前从未见过的新面貌。先行词是sides of the city，指事物，定语从句中缺少宾语，用关系代词that引导定语从句。 九、书面表达（共15分）请将短文写在答题卡相应的位置上。 54. 生活不总是一帆风顺，偶尔也会有些“小意外”或者“小确幸”来到我们身边。你是否遇到过这些“小意外”或者“小确幸”呢？你是如何应对它们的呢？请你用英语写一篇短文，谈谈你遇到的那些“小意外”或者“小确幸”。 内容包括： ·the unexpected experiences you had have ·one of your stories about your experiences ·what you got from your experience 要求： 1. 词数不少于80词； 2. 文中不得出现真实的人名、校名。 ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】例文 Life is unpredictable and sometimes brings unexpected surprises or little joys that enrich our experiences. I remember once missing a bus on my way to an important interview. Frustrated at first, I decided to walk through a nearby park to pass the time. While strolling, I stumbled upon a local art exhibition. The creativity of the artists not only relieved my stress but also sparked a new interest in painting, which I continue to pursue today. From this experience, I learned the beauty of being open to life’s surprises. They remind us that not everything needs a plan and that happiness can be found in unexpected places. 【解析】 【详解】[总体分析] ①题材：本文是一篇材料作文； ②时态：时态以“一般过去时”为主； ③提示：写作要点已给出，注意不要遗漏要点，可适当添加细节，并突出写作重点。 [写作步骤] 第一步，表明写作意图，引出主题； 第二步，具体阐述生活中的意外之喜是如何发生的； 第三步，总结从该经历中获得的启示。 [亮点词汇] ①unpredictable不可预料的 ②not only…but also不仅……而且…… ③stumble upon偶然发现 [高分句型] ①The creativity of the artists not only relieved my stress but also sparked a new interest in painting, which I continue to pursue today.

Carved (雕刻) out of a single piece of stone weighing hundreds of tons, the Sphinx is the head of a man resting on the body of a lion. The nose, eyes and ears have been carved in accurate proportion (比例). That’s not easy for an object which is 72meters long and 20 meters high. The Sphinx was built in about 2500 BC. But no one knows what tools were used to build it. The Egyptians wrote very little about the building of the Sphinx. No one knows what the Sphinx looked like when it was first finished because both natural erosion (侵蚀) and people’s damage have changed its shape. Many earlier pictures of the Sphinx show it with wings, the body of a lion, and the face of a man. Today only the man and the lion can be seen. To this day, people can’t agree with each other on the true role of the Sphinx. 19. The writer wrote this text to tell us ________. A. some information about the Great Sphinx B. something about the Great Pyramid of Giza in Egypt C. what the Great Sphinx looks like today 20.

(E) 请阅读下面语篇，根据其内容回答问题，并将答案写在答题卡相应的位置上。 A new popular game, China’s first true 3A game, represents (代表) the newest level with high development costs and long production cycles. The game is based on the classic Chinese novel Journey to the West. Many foreign players have been inspired (激励) by the game to start reading the book Journey to the West. Fans of the game have even started posting videos online, sharing their understanding of the story of Journey to the West. “Hey, have you read Journey to the West? This game got me to read it, and now I’m going to reread it,” wrote a fan in a post about the game. Good points: Some articles not only have praised the game’s technology and artistic achievements but also have spoken highly of its cultural meaning. “If you understand Chinese, you’ll never forget how beautifully the words and dialogues in this game are written. It’s the kind of writing that fits an important Chinese work,” said a reviewer. Bad points: The game’s plot (情节) draws heavily on Journey to the West. It gives more challenges to those who don’t know the story of Journey to the West well. This has been mentioned by many foreign reviewers, as a reason for not giving the game a perfect score. Know More Recently, Shanxi government released (发布) an official video for the game. The video shows some real places from the game in Shanxi, including Xiaoxitian Temple, Yuhuang Temple, Tiefu Monastery and soon, drawing many people to visit these places as part of a “cultural journey”. 34.

Perhaps these can be just encouraging words. But a confident person will keep trying to reach his goal no matter how many times he fails. So, ____40____ my opinion, we should never give up. One reason is that if we give up too easily, we will rarely (很少) achieve anything. It is normal for us to fail in our first try at something new. We should not feel disappointed and should try again. Besides, if we always give up when we fail, we will not be able to develop new skills and grow. Another ____41____ is that as we work to reach our goals, we develop confidence. And this confidence can help us improve our lives. ____42____ we never challenge ourselves, we will begin to doubt our abilities. In short, it is important to never give ____43____ our goals.
