Food festivals are a common occurrence in the UK and take place in all sorts of places and at all sorts of times. Whatever your taste, there’s a food festival to match — no matter how specialized.
1. Meatopia
This three-day, London-based festival takes place at the end of August and is a meat lover’s paradise. In addition to a range of legally sourced meat products, from juicy burgers to tender steaks, attendees can listen to live music, watch butchery demonstrations, and attend informal meat-based workshops.
2. The National Honey Show
If you have a sweet tooth, then it could be that the National Honey Show, which started in 1921 and is the largest event of its kind, is the place for you to be. This three-day event attracts many local entries who showcase their sweet golden honey, some of which is sold globally.
3. The Orange Sauce Festival
Have you heard about a festival that is devoted only to orange sauce? Held in Cumbria, this sweet, fragrant festival has been running for 3 years. What attracts people most is a competition to find the best homemade orange sauce. There are thousands of participants from over 30 different countries across the globe, bringing their local snacks to share here.
4. The Ginger and Spice Festival
If you’d prefer something with a little more kick to it, then you could attend The Ginger (姜) and Spice Festival held in Market Drayton. Unlike other food festivals, it celebrates its town’s historic connection to Robert Clive, who returned from India with ginger. Because of this, they specialize in baking gingerbread, but also sell a range of traditional spices from mild to hot.
1. What do Meatopia and the National Honey Show have in common?

【1题详解】
细节理解题。根据Meatopia中“This three-day, London-based festival takes place at the end of August …(这个在伦敦举行的为期三天的节日在八月底举行……)”和The National Honey Show中“This three-day event attracts many local entries…(这个为期三天的活动吸引了许多本地参赛者……)”可知, Meatopia和 the National Honey Show共同之处在于,这两个美食节的时长都是三天。故选A。
【2题详解】
细节理解题。根据The Orange Sauce Festival中“There are thousands of participants from over 30 different countries across the globe, bringing their local snacks to share here.(来自全球30多个国家的数千名参与者带着他们的当地小吃在这里分享)”可知,因为有来自全球30多个国家的数千名参与者带着他们的当地小吃在这里分享,所以如果对外国食物感兴趣,可以去The Orange Sauce Festival。故选D。
【3题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段“Unlike other food festivals, it celebrates its town’s historic connection to Robert Clive, who returned from India with ginger. (与其他美食节不同的是,它庆祝的是该镇与罗伯特·克莱夫的历史渊源,克莱夫从印度带着姜回来)”可知,因为和历史人物有关系,所以the Ginger and Spice 美食节很特别。故选A。
B
Whenever my nine-year-old daughter approached me, eyes wide, with a notebook and a pen, telling me she wanted to engage in a game of school, something inside me froze. There was a mental block so huge that it felt like I was being asked by Elon Musk to make a presentation about artificial intelligence. So, nine times out of ten, I made an excuse.
Why is it so hard to play with my child? I realize this is because I have no idea how to play. I have many happy memories of my youth, but absolutely none involves playing dolls or building blocks with my parents. I don’t blame them because they were never played with as children either. When I ask them what their own childhoods were like, my dad tells me a story about being locked in a cupboard, while my mum recalls the box of buttons she was told to amuse herself with.
There are studies showing how important play is for a child’s growth, and no end of people campaigning for our young to get more of it at school. The poet Michael Rosen, in his Book of Play, argues play is not an extra and all of us, whatever age, could do with more silliness in our lives.
As Rosen explains, “The need for adults to be productive member’s of society means we end up thinking of things that make us laugh, or which are fun to do, as not being very significant or having very little value.” This is exactly why we need to play more. It lightens the load of life and allows us to get back to a childlike state of wonder.
Play is vital to health. And it is why I’ve started playing school games with my daughter. I managed an entire hour and a half the other day—and afterwards, I felt happy. A good 20 years younger.
4. How did the author use to respond to her daughter’s request for a game?
A. She pretended to be surprised. B. She apologized for being busy.
C. She chose to avoid involvement. D. She turned to artificial intelligence.
5. What does the author focus on while giving an explanation in paragraph 2?
A. The game category. B. Memory strategies. C. The generation gap. D. Childhood experiences.
6. Which of the following would Rosen probably agree with?
A. Laughter is the best medicine. B. Play is not only intended for children.
C. Thinking like a kid frees people of stress. D. Staying curious makes a productive worker.
7. What does the author want to convey in the text?
A. Children grow up well in a fun environment.
B. Family interaction strengthens the parent-child tie.
C. Parents owe it to their children to play more with them.
D. Games are essential for children both at school and at home.
【答案】4. C 5. D 6. B 7. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。文章指出玩耍对健康至关重要,父母应该多和自己的孩子玩耍。
【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中的“There was a mental block so huge that it felt like I was being asked by Elon Musk to make a presentation about artificial intelligence. So, nine times out of ten, I made an excuse.(有一个巨大的精神障碍,让我感觉像是被Elon Musk邀请做一个关于人工智能的演讲。所以,十有八九,我找了个借口)”可知,当作者的女儿要求玩游戏时,她选择了避免参与。故选C。
【5题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中的“ I have many happy memories of my youth, but absolutely none involves playing dolls or building blocks with my parents. I don’t blame them because they were never played with as children either. When I ask them what their own childhoods were like, my dad tells me a story about being locked in a cupboard, while my mum recalls the box of buttons she was told to amuse herself with.(我的童年有很多快乐的回忆,但绝对没有一个是和父母一起玩洋娃娃或搭积木的。我不怪他们,因为他们小时候也没被玩过。当我问他们自己的童年是什么样子时,我爸爸给我讲了一个被锁在橱柜里的故事,而我妈妈则回忆起别人告诉她用来娱乐的一盒纽扣)可知,作者在第二段中解释时重点关注的是童年经历。故选D。
【6题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段中的“The poet Michael Rosen, in his Book of Play, argues play is not an extra and all of us, whatever age, could do with more silliness in our lives. (诗人Michael Rosen在他的《玩耍之书》(Book of Play)中指出,玩耍并不是多余的,我们所有人,无论年龄多大,都可以在生活中多做些蠢事)”可推知,Rosen可能同意游戏不仅仅是为儿童设计的。故选B。
【7题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段中的“There are studies showing how important play is for a child’s growth, and no end of people campaigning for our young to get more of it at school.(有研究表明玩耍对孩子的成长是多么重要,人们不断地呼吁我们的孩子在学校里得到更多的玩耍)”及最后一段中的“Play is vital to health. And it is why I’ve started playing school games with my daughter.(玩耍对健康至关重要。这就是为什么我开始和我女儿一起玩学校里的游戏)”可推知,作者想在文中表达的意思是父母应该多和孩子玩,这是为了他们的孩子。故选C。
C
Scientists today are concerned about the growing number of species in the world that may soon become extinct. The United Nations, along with many governments, are trying to save these endangered species. To help resolve this issue, scientists have been trying to learn why species become endangered.
In the United States, loss of habitats is the main reason for species becoming endangered. As populations grow and cities or towns expand, nature is destroyed and the ecosystem is affected. Even small changes in one part of an ecosystem can have a big impact on another part of it. For example, deforestation may result in a change in ground temperature, which may kill off a certain kind of plant in the forest. Animals that eat this plant may suddenly find that there is no available food so they starve to death.
Another possible cause of endangered or extinct species is climate change and rising sea levels. As the Earth gets warmer, this has profound effects on animal and plant life everywhere. For example, rising sea levels make coastal areas unfit for birds to live in. Warmer temperatures melt the ice where polar bears live, wrecking their habitat and making it harder for them to find food. The rising seas also make it harder for polar bears to swim from the cold waters to frozen packs of ice so many of them drown.
There are several ways that people are trying to help endangered species recover. Ecologists study different species and try to find out more information about them to try and help. In Finland, for example, scientists found that a a decrease in the number of bogs(沼泽) was responsible for the falling butterfly population. Once they understood this, they could manage the butterfly population and help it recover. Governments are also passing laws to protect endangered animals. One example of this is an area near Hawaii with a seriously low fish population. The United States’ government has made it illegal for fishing boats to enter this area.
8. What can we infer from paragraph 2?
A. Most endangered species are located in the United States.
B. Cities and towns in the United States are growing too fast.
C. Ecosystem changes can result in habitat loss and animal death.
D. More trees need to be planted to prevent animals from dying out.
9. What does the underlined word “wrecking” in paragraph 3 mean?
A. Conserving. B. Damaging. C. Providing. D. Dominating.
10. Which is the best title for this text?
A. Saving Endangered Species B. A List of Endangered Species
C. The Causes of Global Warming D. How Polar Bears Became Extinct
11. What will the author probably discuss in the paragraph that follows?
A. Some other ways to help endangered species recover.
B. A brief discussion of polar bears and their diet habits.
C. The impact of fishing laws on the development of Hawaii.
D. Various opinions and debates concerning the cause of global warming.
【答案】8. C 9. B 10. A 11. A
【解析】
【分析】本文为一篇说明文,介绍了珍惜物种濒临灭绝的原因,同时提出了一些帮助濒危物种恢复的方法。
【8题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第二段关键句“Even small changes in one part of an ecosystem can have a big impact on another part of it. ”(生态系统的一个部分即使很小的变化也会对另一部分产生巨大的影响。)及下文给出的例子“For example, deforestation may result in a change in ground temperature, which may kill off a certain kind of plant in the forest. Animals that eat this plant may suddenly find that there is no available food so they starve to death.”(例如,森林砍伐可能导致地温的变化,这可能杀死森林中的某种植物。吃这种植物的动物可能会突然发现没有可用的食物,所以它们会饿死。)可以推测,生态系统的变化会导致栖息地的丧失和动物的死亡。故选C项。
【9题详解】
词义猜测题。根据文章第三段关键句“Warmer temperatures melt the ice where polar bears live, wrecking their habitat and making it harder for them to find food.”(温暖的温度融化了北极熊生活的地方的冰,_____它们的栖息地,使它们更难找到食物。)可以推测,此处为分词作结果状语,高温融化了北极熊生活环境中的冰,破坏了它们的栖息地,因此wrecking与damaging意思一致。故选B项。
【10题详解】
主旨大意题。根据文章第一段关键句“Scientists today are concerned about the growing number of species in the world that may soon become extinct. The United Nations, along with many governments, are trying to save these endangered species.”(如今,科学家们对世界上物种数量的增长感到担忧,这些物种可能很快会灭绝。联合国和许多国家的政府正在努力拯救这些濒临灭绝的物种。)并结合全文内容可知,此文主要目的为呼吁我们应该拯救濒危物种。A选项“Saving Endangered Species”(拯救濒危物种)作为本题的标题,符合文意。故选A项。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章最后一段第一句“There are several ways that people are trying to help endangered species recover.”(有几种方法可以帮助濒危物种恢复。)及下文所给出的例子可知,作者在下段应该介绍一些其余帮助濒危物种恢复的方法。故选A项。
D
For generations, depression has been seen as an illness, disorder or even weakness. Such an idea makes sense because depression causes suffering and even death. But what if we’ve got it all wrong?
The common wisdom is that depression starts in the mind with abnormal thinking. That leads to symptoms like headaches, stomachaches, or tiredness. Now, models like the Polyvagal Theory suggest that we've got it backward. It's the body that detects danger and initiates a defense strategy meant to help us survive. That biological strategy is called immobilization, and it demonstrates in the mind and the body with a set of symptoms we call depression.
When we think of depression as unnecessary suffering, we are telling people with depression that they are not part of the group, they are not right and they don' t belong. That robs them of hope. But when we begin to understand that depression, at least initially, happens for a good reason we lift the shame. Instead, people with depression are courageous survivors, not damaged sick people.
The autonomic nervous system (ANS) is constantly scanning our internal and external environment for signs of danger. If our ANS detects a threat or even a simple lack of safety, its next strategy is the fight or flight response, which we often feel as anxiety. Sometimes the threat is so bad or goes on for so long, that the nervous system decides there is no way to fight or to flee. At that point, there is only one option left: immobilization.
The immobilization response is the original biological defense in higher animals. It dulls pain and makes us feel disconnected. Think of some reptiles (爬行动物), which shut down their bodies to avoid cold temperatures and the lack of food and water. In humans, people often describe feeling “out of their bodies" during extremely unpleasant events, which has a defensive effect of reducing the emotional shock. This is important because some things are so terrible, we don't want people to be fully present when they happen. What incredible capacity of our biology to find a way in hard times!
12. Why does the author mention the Polyvagal Theory?
A. To offer a standard for identifying depression.
B. To raise people's awareness of mental problems.
C. To make sense of how depression affects people.
D. To correct a commonly held idea about depression.
13. What can we infer from paragraph 3?
A. Depression can bring people in crisis hope.
B. People may feel it wrong to have depression.
C. Depression is an unnecessary human emotion.
D. People often feel proud of fighting depression.
14. What is “immobilization” in the text?
A. Building up anxiety. B. Rising to challenges.
C. Shutting down action. D. Pulling through a crisis.
15. In which order does our body react to an extremely unpleasant situation?
①seek to work out solutions
②become aware of a threat
③experience emotional shock
④start defensive disconnection
A. ②③④① B. ④②①③ C. ②①③④ D. ④①②③
【答案】12. D 13. B 14. C 15. C
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章讲述了抑郁症并非如大多人所想的那样是给人带来痛苦的,相反它是一种自我保护机制。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“Now, models like the Polyvagal Theory suggest that we’ve got it backward.”(现在,像迷走神经理论这样的模型表明我们把它弄反了。)可知,提到这个理论证明我们将抑郁症理解反了,所以这个理论是用来纠正我们对抑郁症的既有观点。故选D。
【13题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“When we think of depression as unnecessary suffering, we are telling people with depression that they are not part of the group, they are not right and they don’t belong. That robs them of hope. ”(当我们认为抑郁症是不必要的痛苦时,我们就是在告诉抑郁症患者,他们不属于这个群体,他们是不对的,他们不属于这个群体。这剥夺了他们的希望。)可知,这是人们对抑郁症通常的看法,所以人们往往会认为得抑郁症是一件不好的事情,故选B。
14题详解】
词义猜测题。根据最后一段“It dulls pain and makes us feel disconnected. ”(它能减轻痛苦,让我们感到疏离。)以及“ Think of some reptiles (爬行动物), which shut down their bodies to avoid cold temperatures and the lack of food and water. ”(想想一些爬行动物,它们关闭自己的身体以避免寒冷的温度和缺乏食物和水。)可知,immobilization这个词的大概意思可以得到推断,就是减少活动,减少与周围人的接触,故选C。
【15题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段“If our ANS detects a threat or even a simple lack of safety, its next strategy is the fight or flight response, which we often feel as anxiety. Sometimes the threat is so bad or goes on for so long, that the nervous system decides there is no way to fight or to flee. At that point, there is only one option left: immobilization.”(如果我们的ANS检测到威胁,甚至是简单的缺乏安全感,它的下一个策略就是战斗或逃跑反应,我们通常会感到焦虑。有时威胁太严重或持续时间太长,以致神经系统决定没有办法战斗或逃跑。在这一点上,只剩下一个选择:固化。)以及第五段“In humans, people often describe feeling “out of their bodies”during extremely unpleasant events, which has a defensive effect of reducing the emotional shock. ”(在人类中,人们经常描述在极度不愉快的事件中“欣喜若狂”的感觉,这具有减少情绪冲击的防御作用。)可知,我们的身体对一个极其不愉快的情况的反应顺序是①检测到威胁②下一个策略就是战斗或逃跑反应③感受到情绪冲击④防御。故选C。
第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分满分12.5分)
根据短文内容, 从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。

Then, you’ll start doing what you really want. ___18___ Your new friends will integrate into your life and you’ll also keep your genuine friends.

【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了如何在生活中不去顾虑别人的想法而应该作独立的自己。
【16题详解】
根据上文“You feel that you must do what they expect and that you must meet their expectations, otherwise you’ll lose their approval.(你觉得你必须做他们期望的事情,你必须满足他们的期望,否则你会失去他们的认可。)”下文“ Then, you’ll be able to do what you want freely.(然后,你就可以自由地做你想做的事。)”可知前后是转折关系,空处应该是填一个承上启下的句子。E选项“If this is the case, it’s time to start working on your self-esteem .(如果是这样的话,是时候开始培养你的自尊了。)”中,前半句“If this is the case, ”与上文一致,后半句“ it’s time to start working on your self-esteem .”引起下文。故选E。
【17题详解】
根据上文“You must lead your life independently.(你必须自己独立地生活。)”可知后半句应该是和自己独立有关,也就是不受别人影响。所以,F项“You must do what you want without being affected by what others think.(你必须做自己想做的事,不要被别人的想法所影响。)”符合语境。故选F。
【18题详解】
由本段的第一句“By surrounding yourself with people who think like you, you’ll realize that you don’t feel judged.(和你想法相同的人在一起,你会意识到你不会觉得自己被评判了。)”和空后的“Your new friends will integrate into your life and you’ll also keep your genuine friends.(你的新朋友会融入你的生活,你也会保持你真正的朋友。)”可知空处应该和friends相关,B项“You don’t have to change your circle of friends.(你不必改变你的朋友圈。)”故选B。
【19题详解】
根据上文“To overcome your fear of what others think and of their non-approval, you should start talking about your plans, For instance, you might want to tell a handful of friends about your wishes and dreams.(为了克服你对别人想法和他们不赞成的恐惧,你应该开始谈论你的计划。例如,你可能想要告诉几个朋友你的愿望和梦想。)”可知,下文是有关如何克服的句子,此外,和D选项“By talking to them, you’ll be able to organize your plans and ideas.”相呼应。故选D。
【20题详解】
根据空前“It’s unavoidable that not everything will be plain sailing, and you’ll find obstacles along your way. (不可避免的是,并不是每件事都一帆风顺,你会在路上遇到障碍。)”可知,下文应该是鼓励去解决障碍,继续前进的句子。所以,G项“However, you must trust in yourself and seek the necessary strength to move forward.(然而,你必须相信自己,寻求力量继续前进。)”符合语境,和后文衔接自然。故选G。

【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。在圣诞节的早上,莫莉和姐姐娜塔莉以及她们的父亲一起前往马里兰州的卡尔弗特海滩去寻找鲨鱼牙齿。在那儿,莫莉找到了一颗巨齿鲨的牙齿。
【36题详解】
考查介词。句意:圣诞节早上,9岁的莫莉·桑普森和她17岁的姐姐娜塔莉穿着齐胸高的防水工作服,像专业人士一样去寻找鲨鱼牙齿。根据句意和空格后的Christmas morning可知,具体到某一天的早上,应该用介词on。故填On。
【37题详解】
考查名词。句意:姐妹俩和父亲一起前往马里兰州的卡尔弗特海滩,准备使用她们的新设备。根据句意和所给动词equip以及句中的动词put分析句子可知,空格处应该填入equip的名词形式equipment作动词put的宾语。故填equipment。
【38题详解】
考查时态。句意:由于潮水特别低,她向大海深处走去。根据上下文的时态是一般过去时可知,该句子也应该用一般过去时。故填walked。
【39题详解】
考查连接代词。句意:令她高兴是,这正是她所希望找到的:一颗巨齿鲨的牙齿。根据句意分析句子可知, she was hoping to find是一个表语从句,该表语从句缺少宾语,所以空格处应该填入一个连接代词引导表语从句,且意义为“……的事物”,所以应该用连接代词what。故填what。
【40题详解】
考查形容词。句意:桑普森一家把莫莉令人兴奋的发现带到了马里兰州所罗门的卡尔弗特海洋博物馆。根据句意和所给动词excite以及空格后的名词find分析句子可知,空格处应该填入excite的形容词形式exciting作定语,修饰后面的名词find。故填exciting。
【41题详解】
考查介词。句意:卡尔弗特悬崖附近水域曾经是鲸鱼和海豚的家园,它们会吸引饥饿的巨齿鲨和其他鲨鱼物种。根据句意和空格前的名词home分析句子可知,此处应该填入介词to和名词home搭配:be home to(是……的故乡/栖息地/发源地)。故填to。
【42题详解】
考查副词。句意:鲨鱼经常会掉牙,然后换上新的。根据句意和所给形容词frequent分析句子可知,空格处应该填入frequent的副词形式frequently作状语,修饰动词lose。故填frequently。
【43题详解】
考查冠词。句意:因此,对于寻找鲨鱼牙齿的业余化石猎人来说,这个地区是一个宝库。根据空格前的as和空格后的result可知,此处是考查固定短语as a result(因此,结果)。故填a。
【44题详解】
考查时态、语态和主谓一致。句意:虽然每年发现的鲨鱼牙齿超过100颗,但很少有比莫莉发现的这颗更大的。根据句意和所给动词find分析句子可知,空格处是该句子的谓语部分,根据annually可知,该句子应该用一般现在时;主语teeth和动词find之间是被动关系,所以应该用被动语态;主语teeth是复数形式,所以谓语动词应该用复数形式。故填are found。
【45题详解】
考查形容词比较级。句意:虽然每年发现的鲨鱼牙齿超过100颗,但很少有比莫莉发现的这颗更大的。根据句意和所给形容词large以及空格后的than可知,空格处应该填入large的比较级形式larger。故填larger。

第二节(满分25分)
47. 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。
Rafael is my parents’ friend who owns a bakery with the yummiest (最美味的) treats imaginable. He happened to stop by when my friends Mareya and Daniel, my little sister Indi and I were drawing with chalk in front of my house. He said our drawings were cool, while trying not to step on them as he walked toward the door to find my dad. We expressed our thanks and continued to draw.
A little while later, when he came back out with my dad, Rafael said he had been thinking about our wonderful drawings, and that he’d really love our help. He was going to sell cookies, and the profits would go to an organization that worked to save the rainforests. When asked if he wanted us to help taste the cookies, Rafael laughed and said “Of course”. But he said he also needed some artwork for the bags. He wondered if we would be up for making some sketches (草图) on paper that he could consider for the label.
We said yes right away. I mean, who wouldn’t want to help the rainforests — and sample some of Rafael’s delicious cookies? Rafael had to leave for a meeting but promised to be back by four o’clock. “Don’t worry about making the pictures perfect,” he said as he left. “Just have fun drawing.”
After we read a little bit about the rainforests, my mom helped get us set up with art supplies and background music. And away we drew! Finally, about five minutes before four o’clock, we decided to stop and look at one another’s work. To our great surprise, Daniel made an incredible drawing. When asked why he never told us he could draw like that, Daniel just smiled. He said he was glad we liked it and that he thought all of ours were really awesome too.
注意:1. 续写词数应为150左右;
2. 请按如下格式在相应位置作答。
I liked my drawing, but after comparing it with Daniel’s masterpiece, I felt like the worst artist ever.
__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
When I looked closely at everyone’s art, I could see what Rafael meant.
__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】One possible version
I liked my drawing, but after comparing it with Daniel’s masterpiece, I felt like the worst artist ever. I tried to tell myself that it was just for fun and it didn’t matter how good or bad my drawing was, but I couldn’t shake off the feeling of disappointment. Just then, Rafael walked in and noticed my downcast expression. He asked if everything was alright and I told him how I felt. Rafael smiled and asked, “Do you want to know the secret of my yummy cookies?” “What’s the secret?” I asked, expecting the answer. “It’s the fun and joy in the baking process. You know, the most important thing about drawing, likewise, is not how perfect it looks, but how it makes you feel. Does your drawing make you happy? If it does, then it’s a masterpiece.”
When I looked closely at everyone’s art, I could see what Rafael meant. Even though some of the drawings were not technically perfect, they all had a special quality that made them unique and beautiful in their own way. Mareya’s and Indi’s were bold and colorful, while mine was delicate and intricate. We all happily engaged in drawing and each drawing represented our own observation and imagination, which made them so special. I think Rafael’s words really captured the essence of what art is all about. It’s not about conforming to a certain set of rules or standards, but rather about expressing oneself in a way that brings joy and meaning to the drawer and those who view the work.
【解析】
