So we started and soon got to it, because the island was only three miles long and a quarter of a mile wide. This place was a hill about forty feet high. We had a hard time getting to the top. The sides were so steep (陡峭的) and the trees were so thick. We walked and climbed around all over it, and found a good big hole in the rock. It was a good place to play our game. The hole was as big as two or three rooms, and Jim could stand up straight in it. It was cool there. Jim wanted to put our things there, but I said we didn’t want to be climbing up and down there all the time. Jim said if we had the boat hidden in a good place and put all the things in the hole, we could rush there when anybody came to the island. They would never find us without dogs. Besides, he said that little birds had said it was going to rain. We didn’t want the things to get wet. ▲ Then we found a place close by to hide the boat in, among the thick willows (柳树). We took some fish off the lines and set them again, and began to get ready for dinner. There was a good place to build a fire in the hole. So we built a fire and cooked dinner. We spread the blankets inside, and ate our dinner. We put all the other things at the back of the hole. Pretty soon it darkened and began to thunder. Directly it began to rain, and I never saw the wind blow so heavily. It was one of these regular summer storms. It would get so dark that it looked all blue-black outside. The rain poured so heavily that the trees looked unclear. “Jim, this is nice,” I said. “I wouldn’t want to be anywhere else but here. Pass me another piece of fish and some hot bread.” (Excerpt from The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn) 52. Where did they put the boat? A. In the hole. B. In the trees. C. On the river. D.

These common acts can do wonders for your overall health. Another important way is to put your heart into what you can control. In life, it’s easy to get worried about what you can’t master. 59 That can help you keep going rather than feeling helpless. Think of challenges as locked doors: staring at the door won’t open it, but looking for the key—through your actions—just might. Your mindset (思维模式) also plays a big role in how you face challenges. Developing a growth mindset makes you believe that your abilities can improve through effort. 60 Accept that they are a normal part of life, and you can face them more bravely and actively. Remember, you have the ability to overcome (克服) challenges in life. By staying calm and focusing on what you can do, you can deal with even the most difficult situations with confidence and strength. A. So why not focus on the things you can do? B. Make good use of your time to study more. C. It encourages you to do some volunteering work. D. By following these ways, you are sure to make it. E. Acts of self-care may help you overcome challenges too. F. With this thinking pattern, difficulties will lead to progress. G. That is to say, asking for help from others is very important. 【参考答案】 D G E A F 【答案解析】 1. 答案：D 定位句：So how can challenges in your life bring out meaningful growth? 翻译：那么生活中的挑战如何促成有意义的成长呢？ 上文抛出问题，下文分段介绍好几种应对挑战、获得成长的办法。D 选项意为 “按照这些方法去做，你一定可以做到”，起到承上启下的作用，引出下文列举的多条方法。其余选项都是后面段落的分论点，放在此处不合适。 2. 答案：G 定位句：When you’re experiencing something hard, a strong and encouraging support system can make a big difference. You can turn to your friends, family and community to get the support you need to keep moving forward. 翻译：当你身处困境时，一个强大且能给予鼓励的支持体系会带来很大帮助。你可以向朋友、家人和身边群体寻求支持，支撑自己继续向前。 前一句关键词是 support system（支持体系），后一句讲向身边人求助。G 选项 “也就是说，向他人寻求帮助十分重要”，是对这两句的同义转述，衔接自然。 3. 答案：E 定位句：Getting enough rest, eating well, and exercising more are helpful ways to take care of yourself during difficult moments. 翻译：充足休息、合理饮食、多运动，都是困境中照顾自己的有效方式。 本段后面全部围绕休息、饮食、运动、呼吸调节、听音乐等自我照料的方式展开。E 选项里的 self-care（自我关怀）正好概括本段核心，作为本段主题句放在段首。 4. 答案：A 定位句：Another important way is to put your heart into what you can control. In life, it’s easy to get worried about what you can’t master. That can help you keep going rather than feeling helpless. 翻译：另一个重要的方法是专心做好你能掌控的事。生活中，我们很容易为自己无法掌控的事情焦虑。那能帮你坚持下去，而不是陷入无助。 前文说不要纠结掌控不了的事，后文说这样做能避免无助感。A 选项 “那为什么不专注你力所能及的事情呢？” 形成逻辑转折，承接上文，引出本段核心主张，代词 That 也对应这个建议。 5. 答案：F 定位句：Developing a growth mindset makes you believe that your abilities can improve through effort. Accept that they are a normal part of life, and you can face them more bravely and actively. 翻译：培养成长型思维模式会让你相信，能力可以依靠努力得到提升。接受困难是生活常态，你就能更加勇敢、积极地面对它们。 本段主题词 growth mindset（成长型思维），F 选项中 this thinking pattern 就是指代成长型思维；句意 “拥有这种思维模式，困难将会带来进步”，顺承前一句，说明成长型思维带来的积极结果，衔接后文勇敢面对困难。 五、词汇运用（共 10 小题；每小题 1 分，满分 10 分） 从方框中选择恰当的词或短语并用其适当的形式填空（每个词或短语只能用一次） communicate　 mad　 imagine　 winner　 recognize drop out of school　 cut back on　 make it　 pay off 　at all times 61.

Hard work pays off. 翻译：—— 我之前担心考试不及格，结果比预想的要好。—— 看吧？努力终有回报。 解析：谚语 `Hard work pays off`，用一般现在时，表示客观道理；`pay off` 取得回报。 9. 答案：at all times 定位句：According to the traffic rules, drivers must wear seat belts at all times. 翻译：根据交通法规，司机必须全程系好安全带。 解析：`at all times` 固定短语，始终、一直，在句中作状语。 10. 答案：drop out of school 定位句：He had to drop out of school in his teens because his family had no money. 翻译：因为家里没钱，他十几岁就不得不辍学。 解析：`had to` 后接动词原形；`drop out of school` 辍学。 六、阅读填空（共 20 小题；每小题 1 分，满分 20 分） A）根据短文内容及所给首字母提示写出所缺单词，使短文意思完整，每空一词。 After a long day, Zhang Tian finally got back to his small room, feeling tired.

It’s faster, cleaner, and doesn’t take up space.” “Speed isn’t everything, Leo,” Grandpa said softly. “Some things can only be felt, not just sent in digital ways.” Leo rolled his eyes, thinking about the speed and efficiency (效率) of his digital world. But then, as he reached for another box, it fell to the ground. A handwritten letter fell out. It was written to Grandpa, dated forty years ago—and it was slightly smudged. Leo picked it up. As he began to read the first few lines, his sarcasm died away. It described a snowy night when Grandpa had waited hours at a train station just to say a three-minute goodbye to a friend moving abroad. There was no GPS, no fast messages—only the heartfelt hope and a handwritten promise to stay in touch. It wasn’t just a letter; it was a lively, breathing record of a moment that shaped his grandpa’s life—a moment that no “quick digital messages” could ever catch. Leo gave a quick look at his phone, and suddenly felt unbelievably “poor”. He realized that although his digital world was faster, it could not record lively memories as Grandpa’s old letter could. That evening, Leo sat by his desk. He wanted to share his feeling with his best friend back in the city. 81. What did Leo think he should do with those old books, keep or throw them away? 82. In Leo’s eyes, what could his digital world bring him? 83. When was the letter written? 84. Who wrote the letter to Grandpa? 85. Would Leo share his feeling with his friend by a paper letter? Why? 【参考答案】 He thought they should throw them away. It could bring him speed and efficiency. Forty years ago. Grandpa’s friend (who was moving abroad). Yes. Because he realized paper letters could record lively memories that digital messages could not catch. 【答案解析】 1. 答案：He thought they should throw them away. 定位句：“Why keep all this, Grandpa?” Leo complained, putting a pile of old books into a box. “You can find all these books online now. It’s faster, cleaner, and doesn’t take up space.” 翻译：“爷爷，为什么留着这些东西？” 利奥抱怨着，把一堆旧书放进箱子。“这些书现在网上都能找到，更快、更干净，还不占地方。” 解析：Leo 不理解为什么要保留旧书，觉得网上可以查到，暗含他认为不需要留纸质书，应该丢掉。 2. 答案：It could bring him speed and efficiency. 定位句：Leo rolled his eyes, thinking about the speed and efficiency (效率) of his digital world. 翻译：利奥翻了个白眼，心里想着数字世界的速度和效率。 解析：直接提取原文关键词 speed and efficiency。 3. 答案：Forty years ago. 定位句：A handwritten letter fell out. It was written to Grandpa, dated forty years ago—and it was slightly smudged. 翻译：一封手写信掉了出来。这封信是写给爷爷的，写于四十年前，字迹有点模糊。 解析：原文直接给出时间信息 forty years ago。 4. 答案：Grandpa’s friend (who was moving abroad). 定位句：It described a snowy night when Grandpa had waited hours at a train station just to say a three-minute goodbye to a friend moving abroad. 翻译：信里描写了一个下雪的夜晚，爷爷在火车站等了好几个小时，只为和一位要移居国外的朋友告别三分钟。 解析：这封信是那位即将出国的朋友写给爷爷的。 5. 答案：Yes. Because he realized paper letters could record lively memories that digital messages could not catch. 定位句：He realized that although his digital world was faster, it could not record lively memories as Grandpa’s old letter could. That evening, Leo sat by his desk. He wanted to share his feeling with his best friend back in the city. 翻译：他意识到，虽然数字世界更快，却不能像爷爷的旧信件那样留住鲜活的回忆。那天晚上，利奥坐在书桌前，想要和城里最好的朋友分享这份感受。 解析：读完信之后 Leo 改变想法，明白了纸质信件承载独特回忆的价值，所以推测他会选择手写信。（该题为开放题，逻辑合理即可） 七、书面表达（共 1 题；满分 15 分） 你校英语杂志正在征集主题为 “对我影响最大的人” 的读者来信。假设你是 Jack，请根据以下内容提示，给杂志写一封信，介绍这个人，并谈谈你将如何过有意义的生活。内容提示 1.

A sign said, “Can you help?” Most students did not 36 it. They were used to borrowing things that already worked. One Friday, my friend Ben stopped beside the box. He picked up a reading lamp and said, “Let’s try 37 it instead of buying another one.” I thought he was joking. Neither of us knew much about lamps. We asked the librarian for 38 , and she invited a local repair volunteer to our next club meeting. The volunteer did not begin by telling us what to do. She asked us to think about the 39 why the lamp had stopped working. Our first answer was wrong. Instead of laughing, she stayed 40 and helped us check one part at a time. She also showed us how to 41 accidents and reminded us that electrical repairs must be done under an adult’s guidance. When the lamp finally lit up, Ben gave a little shout. I felt something more than pleasure: I had gained the 42 to ask questions when I did not understand. 43 we repaired only one object that afternoon, the experience changed the way we looked at the box. We later 44 our story in the school newsletter. Soon, students began bringing in objects with short notes about their problems. We had not made a perfect repair service.

B Lu Hong who was listed among the finalists for Touching China 2022, was diagnosed with cerebral palsy (脑瘫) when he was a child. His disabilities meant that he spent his primary and middle school years in pain. Every time he had PE class, all his classmates could run and jump as they liked on the playground while he had to sit alone in the classroom. After graduation, he opened his photo shop. At first, most customers would turn away from Lu’s shop because they doubted his skills and service. To get customers, Lu promised to take pictures for free if customers were not satisfied with his work. Thanks to his skills and hard work, Lu impressed his customers and his shop’s business grew stronger. In 2017, with the help of the Association for Disabled People in Suzhou, Lu Hong opened a photo factory and offered jobs to disabled people. In just a few years, his factory has developed from a small workshop to a proper company. There are over 40 workers in Lu’s factory, more than 30 of whom are disabled. “It’s not easy for people with disabilities to find work. I hope to provide them with an opportunity to realize their full ability and go for their life goals,” he said. During the epidemic (疫情), the factory was forced to close for a while, but he kept on paying salaries (工资) to the workers as he guarded the empty factory alone. He bought machinery and equipment worth nearly 5 million yuan ($726,000) to make sure of production when his staff could not come to work. Besides, Lu started exploring e-commerce (电子商务) opportunities to increase income. Today, Lu Hong’s factory is a celebrated company that has made a great contribution to supporting the poor and providing jobs for the disabled. In the future, he hopes to change from being helped to helping and contributing to society. 49. How did Lu Hong make his shop successful? A. By giving a good first impression. B. By taking pictures for free. C. By improving skills and service. D. By providing many choices. 50. What did Lu Hong do during the epidemic? A. He didn’t pay the workers. B.

C I wanted to go and look at a place in the middle of the island that I had found when I was exploring. So we started and soon got to it, because the island was only three miles long and a quarter of a mile wide. This place was a hill about forty feet high. We had a hard time getting to the top. The sides were so steep (陡峭的) and the trees were so thick. We walked and climbed around all over it, and found a good big hole in the rock. It was a good place to play our game. The hole was as big as two or three rooms, and Jim could stand up straight in it. It was cool there. Jim wanted to put our things there, but I said we didn’t want to be climbing up and down there all the time. Jim said if we had the boat hidden in a good place and put all the things in the hole, we could rush there when anybody came to the island. They would never find us without dogs. Besides, he said that little birds had said it was going to rain. We didn’t want the things to get wet. ▲ Then we found a place close by to hide the boat in, among the thick willows (柳树).

So how can challenges in your life bring out meaningful growth? 56 When you’re experiencing something hard, a strong and encouraging support system can make a big difference. 57 You can turn to your friends, family and community to get the support you need to keep moving forward. 58 Getting enough rest, eating well, and exercising more are helpful ways to take care of yourself during difficult moments. According to Healthline, activities like mindful breathing, listening to your favorite music, or going outside to change your focus can also help you a lot. These common acts can do wonders for your overall health. Another important way is to put your heart into what you can control. In life, it’s easy to get worried about what you can’t master. 59 That can help you keep going rather than feeling helpless. Think of challenges as locked doors: staring at the door won’t open it, but looking for the key—through your actions—just might. Your mindset (思维模式) also plays a big role in how you face challenges. Developing a growth mindset makes you believe that your abilities can improve through effort. 60 Accept that they are a normal part of life, and you can face them more bravely and actively. Remember, you have the ability to overcome (克服) challenges in life. By staying calm and focusing on what you can do, you can deal with even the most difficult situations with confidence and strength. A. So why not focus on the things you can do? B. Make good use of your time to study more. C. It encourages you to do some volunteering work. D. By following these ways, you are sure to make it. E. Acts of self-care may help you overcome challenges too. F. With this thinking pattern, difficulties will lead to progress. G. That is to say, asking for help from others is very important. 五、词汇运用（共 10 小题；每小题 1 分，满分 10 分） 从方框中选择恰当的词或短语并用其适当的形式填空（每个词或短语只能用一次） communicate　 mad　 imagine　 winner　 recognize drop out of school　 cut back on　 make it　 pay off 　at all times 61.

B）阅读回答问题（每题不多于 8 个词；每小题 2 分，满分 10 分） “Why keep all this, Grandpa?” Leo complained, putting a pile of old books into a box. “You can find all these books online now. It’s faster, cleaner, and doesn’t take up space.” “Speed isn’t everything, Leo,” Grandpa said softly. “Some things can only be felt, not just sent in digital ways.” Leo rolled his eyes, thinking about the speed and efficiency (效率) of his digital world. But then, as he reached for another box, it fell to the ground. A handwritten letter fell out. It was written to Grandpa, dated forty years ago—and it was slightly smudged. Leo picked it up. As he began to read the first few lines, his sarcasm died away. It described a snowy night when Grandpa had waited hours at a train station just to say a three-minute goodbye to a friend moving abroad. There was no GPS, no fast messages—only the heartfelt hope and a handwritten promise to stay in touch. It wasn’t just a letter; it was a lively, breathing record of a moment that shaped his grandpa’s life—a moment that no “quick digital messages” could ever catch. Leo gave a quick look at his phone, and suddenly felt unbelievably “poor”. He realized that although his digital world was faster, it could not record lively memories as Grandpa’s old letter could. That evening, Leo sat by his desk. He wanted to share his feeling with his best friend back in the city. 81. What did Leo think he should do with those old books, keep or throw them away? 82. In Leo’s eyes, what could his digital world bring him? 83. When was the letter written? 84. Who wrote the letter to Grandpa? 85. Would Leo share his feeling with his friend by a paper letter? Why? 七、书面表达（共 1 题；满分 15 分） 你校英语杂志正在征集主题为 “对我影响最大的人” 的读者来信。假设你是 Jack，请根据以下内容提示，给杂志写一封信，介绍这个人，并谈谈你将如何过有意义的生活。内容提示 1. Who has influenced you most? What are his or her best qualities?
