Many people keep old toys from their childhood. When these toys get broken, they are not ready to throw them away. Toy repairer Cui Wei offers help for these special old toys. ____25____ Cui’s workshop is full of different broken toys. ____26____ Some plush (长毛绒的) toys get damaged after being washed or heated. Some electronic toys stop working because of broken circuit boards. Mechanical toys cannot move when gears get stuck. Some easy work like sewing broken cloth and filling cotton takes only a few hours. But it is much harder to fix electronic and mechanical toys. ____27____ Repairers must understand how these toys work before they start. Cui has loved taking mechanical clocks and toys apart since he was little. This slow work makes him calm. ____28____ For most customers, toys are their childhood friends. They carry special memories and feelings. To Cui, helping people keep their important memories is the most meaningful part of his work. A. He chooses this job because of his long-time love. B.

A 【解析】 【导语】本文主要讲了玩具修理师Cui Wei修理各类破损旧玩具，帮人们留住承载童年回忆的物件。 【25题详解】 前文介绍玩具修理师Cui Wei为老旧玩具提供帮助，后文开始介绍他的工作室和工作相关内容。B项“Here is more information about Cui and his work.”起到引出下文的作用，衔接自然。 【26题详解】 前文说Cui的工作室里满是各式各样坏掉的玩具，后文分别介绍毛绒玩具、电子玩具、机械玩具不同的损坏情况。C项“Every type of toy needs different repair skills.”总领后文不同类型玩具的故障介绍，逻辑通顺。 【27题详解】 前文提到修理电子和机械玩具要难得多，后文说修理师开工前必须弄懂玩具的工作原理。D项“So fixing them usually takes much more time.”承接上文“更难修理”，说明这类玩具修理耗时更长，前后呼应。 【28题详解】 前文说Cui从小就喜欢拆解机械钟表和玩具，这种慢节奏的工作能让他平静下来。A项“He chooses this job because of his long-time love.”点明他选择这份工作的原因，和前文从小的爱好对应。 第二节 阅读短文（共12题，每小题2分，共24分） C Why butterflies matter ·They are pollinators (传粉者) for many wild plants like milkweed and bergamot (佛手柑). ·They serve as food for other animals.

Two islanders ate a mermaid (美人鱼) and got long life. A sea monster wants to get revenge (复仇). She brings great fear to the island, hurting innocent(无辜的)people and visitors. Three big-eyed creatures (生物) with spear-like weapons (矛状武器) are sent to stop her. The smallest one, Chiikawa, a little animal, finds the task too hard and often cries.

They try hard to make a living. Sometimes they fail exams even after hard work. Some friends may turn into scary creatures. The stories show city people’s loneliness.

A 35. A 36. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是说明文，搭配《吉伊卡哇：人鱼岛的秘密》的电影海报配图，介绍了日本热门IP“吉伊卡哇 (Chiikawa) ”的相关内容，包含其剧场版电影的剧情、IP的走红热度与起源，还探讨了它在焦虑时代受到人们喜爱的原因。 【33题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“The smallest one, Chiikawa, a little animal, finds the task too hard and often cries.”可知，Chiikawa觉得完成任务很困难。 【34题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第二段“It made more than 10 billion yen soon after it came out on July 24th. The craze is not only in cinemas or Japan. Fans buy Chiikawa toys, snacks, cartoons and comic books.”可知，该IP相关的电影票房高、周边产品受追捧，说明它十分受欢迎，因此craze的含义是“大受欢迎”。 【35题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“The comic became popular quickly because it filled the empty space in people’s hearts during the pandemic.”可知，2020年Chiikawa的漫画流行，是因为它填补了疫情期间人们内心的空虚，帮助人们缓解内心的空落感。 【36题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“The characters look lovely, but their world is not painless. They try hard to make a living. Sometimes they fail exams even after hard work. Some friends may turn into scary creatures. The stories show city people’s loneliness.”可知，角色外表可爱，但故事包含诸多贴近现实的严肃问题，即可爱的外表下隐藏着严肃且真实的现实问题。 E Christopher Nolan’s movie The Odyssey has brought new life to Homer’s ancient story, which is almost 3,000 years old. It not only tells of Odysseus’ long journey home but also gives us many idioms and metaphors (隐喻). One famous part of Odysseus’ story is the Trojan horse, a clever trick by Odysseus to enter the city of Troy. Greek soldiers hid inside a giant wooden horse, leading to Troy’s defeat. Today, a “Trojan horse” means a hidden trick or threat. For example, a computer program could be a “Trojan horse” if it has a virus inside. Another popular idiom is Achilles’ heel. Achilles was a strong hero with only one weak part of his body — his heel. Now, it means the main weakness of someone or something. A talented person may have a lack of patience as his or her Achilles’ heel. Odysseus’ journey home was full of challenges. He had to sail (航行) between two dangers, Scylla and Charybdis. This phrase, similar to being stuck between a rock and a hard place, means facing two difficult choices. The siren song is another famous part of Odysseus’ story. Sirens sang beautiful songs that led sailors into danger. Today, a “siren song” is something tempting (诱人的) but risky, like the promise of quick money that leads to bad decisions. There is even an expression about Homer himself. The Roman poet Horace wrote that “even Homer sometimes nods”. The expression shows that even the greatest writers can make mistakes. It reminds us that errors are a normal part of storytelling. These idioms teach us lessons from Homer’s work, like the value of cleverness and the problems caused by human nature. They also show how his work still shapes our language and culture today. 37. What does the phrase “Trojan horse” mean now? A. A beautiful wooden horse for fun B. A hidden trick or threat C. A strong hero in old stories D. A safe computer programme 38. Why did the writer mention the movie The Odyssey at the beginning? A. To introduce the ancient story of Homer and the idioms from it B. To tell us Christopher Nolan is a great director C. To show the movie is much better than the old story D. To advise us to watch this movie right away 39. Which of the following is TRUE? A. Achilles had many weak parts in his body. B. “Between Scylla and Charybdis” means you have two hard choices. C. Sirens’ beautiful songs helped sailors get home safely. D. Homer never made any mistakes in his works. 40. What is the main idea of the passage? A. The life story of the great poet Homer. B. The whole adventure of the hero Odysseus. C. Ancient stories still shape our language. D. How ancient Greek stories were made into popular movies. 【答案】37. B 38. A 39. B 40. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章通过克里斯托弗·诺兰的电影《奥德赛》引出荷马的古老故事，重点介绍了源自该故事的几个习语及其现代含义，说明了古代故事对当今语言和文化的影响。 【37题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第二段“Today, a ‘Trojan horse’ means a hidden trick or threat”可知，“Trojan horse”意味着一个隐藏的诡计或威胁。 【38题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“It not only tells of Odysseu’ long journey home but also gives us many idioms and metaphors.”及下文内容可推知，作者提到电影是为了引出荷马的古老故事及其中的习语。 【39题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“This phrase, similar to being stuck between a rock and a hard place, means facing two difficult choices.”可知，“Between Scylla and Charybdis”意味着面临两个艰难的选择。 【40题详解】 主旨大意题。根据最后一段“They also show how his work still shapes our language and culture today.”可知，文章主要说明了古代故事仍然塑造着我们的语言。 三、完形填空（本大题共10小题，每小题1分，共10分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项A、B、C、D中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 At a meal in the Maowusu Desert, the table was filled with green beans, tomatoes, green peppers, pork and even ostrich (鸵鸟) eggs.

D 45. B 46. C 47. A 48. C 49. A 50. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，介绍了治沙模范殷玉珍的治沙事迹，主要讲述她与美国教师Ronald Sakolsky跨越多年的故事。 【41题详解】 句意：以治沙事业闻名的全国劳动模范殷玉珍，在沙漠之中产出了所有这些食材，为她的老朋友Ronald Sakolsky准备这顿饭。 整篇文章主线是沙漠治理之后生态改善，原本荒芜的沙漠区域如今可以出产各类食物。produced表示土地、环境“产出物产”，突出治沙改造土地之后沙漠能够生产食材的含义，契合本文治沙带来生态改变的核心。bought“购买”、borrowed“借用”、kept“保存”均不符语境。 【42题详解】 句意：两人时隔26年之后终于再次相见。 根据“again after 26 years”并结合后文老朋友的描述，可以判断本句表达老友漫长岁月之后再度相逢。met是meet的过去式，表示“见面、相会”，契合久别重逢的叙事主线。talked“交谈”、worked“工作”、studied“学习”均不符语境。 【43题详解】 句意：早在1999年，Sakolsky在中国教英语的时候，他看到了一则关于殷玉珍的电视报道。 本句描述两件事的时间关系：Sakolsky在中国教英语是一段持续的背景状态，就在这段时期内，他看到了这则电视新闻。when引导时间状语从句，可以表达“正在进行一件事的过程中，另一件事发生”的逻辑。if“如果”、because“因为”、though“虽然”均不符逻辑。 【44题详解】 句意：当时她正尝试在内蒙古毛乌素沙漠植树，但是没有足够的资金。 后文提到“Sakolsky在短短两个月之内筹集了5000美元来支持她”，“筹集钱款”的行为直接对应前文殷玉珍“缺少资金”的困境，前后线索相互呼应，money“资金，钱”符合语境。time“时间”、space“空间”、water“水”均不符语境。 【45题详解】 句意：他被她的故事深深打动，仅仅两个月之内就募集到5000美元用来支持她的治沙事业。 根据“…$5,000 in just two months to support her”可知，此处指筹措钱款，raised表示“筹集，募集”，符合Sakolsky为殷玉珍筹措治沙经费的行为。gave“给予”、lent“借出”、sent“寄送”均不符语境。 【46题详解】 句意：他认为这件事是不可能实现的。 后文殷玉珍的引语中直接出现了“impossible”这个单词，说明当初在Sakolsky眼中，在严酷的沙漠上造林是一件不可能完成的事，impossible“不可能的”符合语境。simple“简单的”、strange“奇怪的”、natural“自然的”均不符语境。 【47题详解】 句意：得益于Sakolsky的捐款，殷玉珍成功种植了五万多棵树，将这片荒漠转变为一片绿色的森林。 根据“Yin was able to plant over 50,000 trees…the desert into a green forest.”可知，固定搭配turn…into…意为“把……转变为……”；空格处为现在分词作结果状语，表示“种植大量树木”这件事自然而然带来的结果——荒漠转化为绿洲森林，turning“转变”符合语境。pushing“推”、dividing“划分”、filling“填满”均不符语境。 【48题详解】 句意：Sakolsky回到美国之后，他们失去了联系。殷玉珍多年来一直在寻找他。 前文交代二人失去联系，后文交代殷玉珍发布线上视频、最终重新联系上对方，可以推断殷玉珍多年一直在主动搜寻、寻找这位曾经帮助自己的友人。search for sb.是固定搭配，表示“寻找某人”，完全契合“失联之后主动寻人”的情节，应用searched。waited“等待”、cared“关心”、asked“询问”均不符语境。 【49题详解】 句意：看到沙漠翻天覆地的变化，Sakolsky称殷玉珍为一位“奇迹英雄”。 根据“Sakolsk…Yin a ‘miracle hero’.”可知，“call sb.+称号”是经典双宾语结构，含义为“称呼某人为……”，本句就是Sakolsky目睹治沙奇迹之后，给殷玉珍冠以“奇迹英雄”的评价，called“称作”符合语境。told“告诉”、ordered“命令”、chose“选择”均不符语境。 【50题详解】 句意：这是中国在荒漠化防治方面更宏大努力的一部分。 后文介绍的三北防护林工程，是国家持续数十年投入巨大人力物力对抗荒漠化的宏大行动。effort在这里表示为实现目标而开展的长期行动、巨大付出，符合语境。rule“规则”、plan“计划”、chance“机会”均不符语境。 第二卷 主观题（共50分） 四、选词填空（本大题共10小题，每小题1分，共10分） 不需要变化，每个词限用一次。 阅读下面短文，从方框中选择恰当的词填入空白处，单词无需改变形式，每词限用一次。 explain, remain, regret, focused, highly, disappoint, satisfied, purpose, probably, truly Everyone has a dream, yet few keep moving forward when difficulties come.

D Chiikawa, Star Of A Japanese Blockbuster, Appeals In Anxious Times For a film that looks like it is made for little kids, the story is surprisingly serious. Two islanders ate a mermaid (美人鱼) and got long life. A sea monster wants to get revenge (复仇). She brings great fear to the island, hurting innocent(无辜的)people and visitors. Three big-eyed creatures (生物) with spear-like weapons (矛状武器) are sent to stop her. The smallest one, Chiikawa, a little animal, finds the task too hard and often cries. Chiikawa the Movie: The Secret of the Mermaid Island is now Japan’s hottest film. It made more than 10 billion yen soon after it came out on July 24th. The craze is not only in cinemas or Japan. Fans buy Chiikawa toys, snacks, cartoons and comic books. Its name means “something kind of small and cute”. It has become the latest popular Japanese cute character across East Asia. Chiikawa first appeared in a comic by Nagano, an illustrator, in 2020. The comic became popular quickly because it filled the empty space in people’s hearts during the pandemic (疫情). Later, a series came out. It also worked with Miniso, a big Chinese retail brand, and sold lots of products. The characters look lovely, but their world is not painless. They try hard to make a living. Sometimes they fail exams even after hard work. Some friends may turn into scary creatures. The stories show city people’s loneliness. Fans say the characters give them comfort. What makes it special is that it tells people: it’s okay to feel anxious (焦虑的). In hard times, their friendship helps them get through difficulties. 33. What can we learn about Chiikawa from Paragraph 1? A. It is a big and brave sea monster. B. It feels difficult to finish its task. C. It hurts many visitors on the island. D. It makes a film for five-year-old kids. 34. The underlined word “craze” in Paragraph 2 most probably means ________. A. great popularity B. strange idea C. serious trouble D. big surprise 35. Why did Chiikawa’s comic become popular in 2020? A. It helped people feel less empty inside. B. It sold lots of toys and snacks at that time. C. It made the most money in Japanese cinemas. D. It worked together with Miniso to sell products. 36. What can we infer from the passage? A. Chiikawa’s stories are only popular among young kids. B. The cute appearance hides serious and real-life problems. C. All characters in Chiikawa can easily pass difficult exams. D. Chiikawa’s films mainly tell stories about happy island life. E Christopher Nolan’s movie The Odyssey has brought new life to Homer’s ancient story, which is almost 3,000 years old. It not only tells of Odysseus’ long journey home but also gives us many idioms and metaphors (隐喻). One famous part of Odysseus’ story is the Trojan horse, a clever trick by Odysseus to enter the city of Troy. Greek soldiers hid inside a giant wooden horse, leading to Troy’s defeat. Today, a “Trojan horse” means a hidden trick or threat. For example, a computer program could be a “Trojan horse” if it has a virus inside. Another popular idiom is Achilles’ heel. Achilles was a strong hero with only one weak part of his body — his heel. Now, it means the main weakness of someone or something. A talented person may have a lack of patience as his or her Achilles’ heel. Odysseus’ journey home was full of challenges. He had to sail (航行) between two dangers, Scylla and Charybdis. This phrase, similar to being stuck between a rock and a hard place, means facing two difficult choices. The siren song is another famous part of Odysseus’ story. Sirens sang beautiful songs that led sailors into danger. Today, a “siren song” is something tempting (诱人的) but risky, like the promise of quick money that leads to bad decisions. There is even an expression about Homer himself. The Roman poet Horace wrote that “even Homer sometimes nods”. The expression shows that even the greatest writers can make mistakes. It reminds us that errors are a normal part of storytelling. These idioms teach us lessons from Homer’s work, like the value of cleverness and the problems caused by human nature. They also show how his work still shapes our language and culture today. 37. What does the phrase “Trojan horse” mean now? A. A beautiful wooden horse for fun B. A hidden trick or threat C. A strong hero in old stories D. A safe computer programme 38. Why did the writer mention the movie The Odyssey at the beginning? A. To introduce the ancient story of Homer and the idioms from it B. To tell us Christopher Nolan is a great director C. To show the movie is much better than the old story D. To advise us to watch this movie right away 39. Which of the following is TRUE? A. Achilles had many weak parts in his body. B. “Between Scylla and Charybdis” means you have two hard choices. C. Sirens’ beautiful songs helped sailors get home safely. D. Homer never made any mistakes in his works. 40. What is the main idea of the passage? A. The life story of the great poet Homer. B. The whole adventure of the hero Odysseus. C. Ancient stories still shape our language. D. How ancient Greek stories were made into popular movies. 三、完形填空（本大题共10小题，每小题1分，共10分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项A、B、C、D中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 At a meal in the Maowusu Desert, the table was filled with green beans, tomatoes, green peppers, pork and even ostrich (鸵鸟) eggs.

This journey would later become known as the Long March. In 1931, the Red Army set up central bases in southern China, where they won great support from the people. But the area came under attack from the Kuomintang. In 1934, the Red Army failed the fifth counter-encirclement and suppression campaign (反“围剿”). To save the Red Army’s remaining forces, the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China decided to move and set up new revolutionary (革命的) bases in Northwest China. The Long March was not just a strategic transfer (战略转移). It shows people’s amazing courage and strong will. On the way, Red Army soldiers fought over 600 battles (战役), crossed nearly 100 rivers, climbed more than 40 high mountains and walked through dangerous wetlands. Tired, cold and hungry, many soldiers lost their lives on the way, but the others never stopped. In October 1936, the main forces of the Red Army met in Huining, Gansu. This marked the end of the Long March, and the valuable revolutionary forces were saved. This year is the 90th year of the victory of this famous march. Today, we no longer need to take such a hard journey, but the strong spiritual (精神的) strength of the Long March lives on. It encourages us to overcome difficulties, do our best to achieve life’s big goals and keep moving from one success to another. 71.
