When Wuilly Arteaga was younger, he often visited a local Internet café to learn how to play music. The café owner made a deal with him; he’d give Arteaga some cash if he helped around the business. Arteaga then used that money to buy a cheap violin. His parents, however, prevented him from playing the violin. At age 15, Arteaga decided to leave home and practice his music on the streets. “From then on, my music school has always been outside, ” he said.
In 2017, he moved to New York City. Arteaga was afraid of being unimportant in a city of so much talent (人才) and so many cultures when he first arrived, but later he became comfortable thanks to the subway, other musicians and with his violin by his side. One of his favorite places to perform in the city is Times Square. “There, it’s as if I’m playing at Madison Square Garden, where concerts are usually held. People scream and applaud (鼓掌) and dance like they’re at a concert. They make me feel like a star,” he explained.
The energy and joy from his performances were posted online in 2018 by a social media influencer who goes by the name Junebug. As Arteaga performed a hip-hop song in Times Square, Junebug and others partook in the fun with practically every dance possible to show their excitement at hearing Arteaga’s violin. The video was titled, “When New Yorkers hear a violin,” and it received over 320 thousand likes and was forwarded 120 thousand times.
Many people have recognised Arteaga’s gift for violin. “I don’t regard myself as a gifted player. I just keep my love for the violin and enjoy the pleasure it brings,” he said. “Here, day by day, I am learning its true meaning. ”
4. Why did Wuilly Arteaga leave his home?
A. To make money to support his family. B. To study music in a school.
C. To help a café owner with his business. D. To follow his music dream.
5. What can we learn about Wuilly Arteaga’s experience in New York?
A. He had little confidence at first. B. He became a music star in the city.
C. He got paid by performing at Times Square. D. He held a concert at Madison Square Garden.

7. What does Wuilly Arteaga’s story show to us?
A. Knowledge is power. B. Nothing is impossible.
C. Interest is the best teacher. D. It’s never too late to learn.
【答案】4. D 5. A 6. B 7. C
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了Wuilly Arteaga坚持不懈追求自己的音乐梦想,最终得到了认可的故事。
【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“His parents, however, prevented him from playing the violin. At age 15, Arteaga decided to leave home and practice his music on the streets. “From then on, my music school has always been outside,” he said.(然而,他的父母不让他拉小提琴。15岁时,Arteaga决定离开家,到街上练习音乐。“从那时起,我的音乐学校就一直在外面,”他说)”可知,Wuilly Arteaga离开他的家是为了追寻他的音乐梦想。故选D。
【5题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“Arteaga was afraid of being unimportant in a city of so much talent (人才) and so many cultures when he first arrived, but later he became comfortable thanks to the subway, other musicians and with his violin by his side.(刚到的时候,Arteaga害怕在一个人才济济、文化多元的城市里不被重视,但后来由于地铁、其他音乐家和身边的小提琴,他变得自在了)”可知,起初Wuilly Arteaga在纽约没有什么信心。故选A。
【6题详解】
词句猜测题。根据画线词后文“fun with practically every dance possible to show their excitement at hearing Arteaga’s violin”可知,当Arteaga在时代广场表演嘻哈歌曲时,Junebug和其他人几乎用每一种舞蹈来分享加入到这种乐趣中,以显示他们听到Arteaga小提琴时的兴奋。故画线词意思是“加入”。故选B。
【7题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“Many people have recognised Arteaga’s gift for violin. “I don’t regard myself as a gifted player. I just keep my love for the violin and enjoy the pleasure it brings,” he said. “Here, day by day, I am learning its true meaning. ”(很多人都认可Arteaga的小提琴天赋。“我不认为自己是一个有天赋的演奏家。我只是保持着对小提琴的热爱,享受它带来的快乐。”“在这里,日复一日,我正在了解它的真正含义。”)”结合文章主要讲述了Wuilly Arteaga坚持不懈追求自己的音乐梦想,最终得到了认可的故事。可推知,故事告诉我们兴趣是最好的老师。故选C。
C
Jingdezhen is famous as China’s porcelain (瓷器) capital. It was one of thestops of a group of international youths as they visited Jiangxi Province.
The group’s visit to Jingdezhen was organised by the 2022 Global Young Leaders Dialogue (GYLD) China Tours program. The program offers young people around the world a chance to experience Chinese culture, learn about the life of the nation’s people, and appreciate China’s beautiful scenery through interesting visits and exchanges that take them all over the country.
In Jingdezhen, they visited Imperial Kiln (御窑) Museum. “Before I came to the Imperial Kiln Museum, I had no idea it would take such a complicated (复杂的) process to restore (修复) a piece of porcelain left over from ancient times,” American TV host Steven Weathers said. “Even with the help of high technology, it is hard to imagine how many modern means have played a part in the process of cultural relic protection,” he added.
Daria Lisaia, a researcher from Vanke Urban Research in Shenzhen, shared Weathers’ opinion. Some porcelain musical instruments have been produced with these imperial kilns from ancient days and traditional tools for making porcelain, so we can “hear the music” from hundreds of years ago, she said. “It’s like ancient culture is reborn,” she explained.
In addition to exploring the porcelain art, the group also came to Huangling Village in Wuyuan County, an ancient village around 80 km east of Jingdezhen. Huangling was once packed with run-down houses and buildings. Changes began to take place in 2009, with over 80 percent of the old houses restored. Today, many people come here to enjoy its historic scenes and natural beauty. In early autumn, large bamboo baskets filled with crops, such as chilies, pumpkins and chrysanthemum flowers, are placed in front of the local houses. Locals dry and preserve their crops for winter. Today, the longstanding practice has become a symbol of local culture and an important part of tourism.
8. What is the purpose of the 2022 GYLD China Tours program?
A. To protect traditional Chinese culture.
B. To let people know more about China.
C. To attract more people to Jingdezhen.
D. To learn ancient skills from local people.
9. What did Steven Weathers say about the restoration of cultural relics?
A. It is not an easy job.
B. It is very easy to learn.
C. Traditional ways are better.
D. New technologies speed the process.
10. Why have some porcelain musical instruments been produced?
A. To create new instruments.
B. To keep up with the times.
C. To bring back ancient music.
D. To show good porcelain skills.
11. What does the author say about Huangling Village?
A. It is losing its traditions.
B. It is now a tourist attraction.
C. It should speed up its progress.
D. It should develop a new industry.
【答案】8. B 9. A 10. C 11. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道,主要讲的是2022年GYLD中国之旅项目组织的对景德镇的访问。
【8题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段的“The program offers young people around the world a chance to experience Chinese culture, learn about the life of the nation’s people, and appreciate China’s beautiful scenery through interesting visits and exchanges that take them all over the country.(该项目为世界各地的年轻人提供了一个体验中国文化、了解中国人民生活、通过有趣的访问和交流欣赏中国美丽风景的机会。)”可知,2022年GYLD中国之旅的目的是让人们更多地了解中国。故选B。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段Steven Weathers所说的话“Before I came to the Imperial Kiln Museum, I had no idea it would take such a complicated (复杂的) process to restore (修复) a piece of porcelain left over from ancient times(在我来到皇窑博物馆之前,我不知道修复一件古代遗留下来的瓷器需要这么复杂的过程)”和“Even with the help of high technology, it is hard to imagine how many modern means have played a part in the process of cultural relic protection(即使在高科技的帮助下,很难想象有多少现代手段在文物保护过程中发挥了作用)”可知,Steven Weathers觉得文物修复不是一件容易的工作。故选A。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第二段的“It’s like ancient culture is reborn(就像古老的文化重生了)”可知,生产一些瓷器乐器是为了让古老的音乐重现。故选C。
【11题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段的“Today, many people come here to enjoy its historic scenes and natural beauty.(今天,许多人来这里欣赏它的历史景象和自然美景。)”可知,Huangling Village现在是一个旅游景点。故选B。

Winter is over, so chances are you’re ready for some major spring cleaning or cleansing. Whether you plan to clean your bedroom or wipe the windows, don’t forget to tidy up the kitchen! According to a study, a messy(凌乱的)cooking space can lead to overeating.
As part of the study, 101 female students were put in standard kitchen and messy kitchen environments and were asked to write about a time when they felt in control or out of control. Next, they were given cookies, crackers and carrots. Students in the “messy kitchen” who wrote about feeling out of control ate about twice as many cookies as the people in the in-control situation.
The researchers found that a messy environment can actually make people more likely to eat unhealthy foods, but the person’s mindset(思维模式)within that environment can either trigger or protect against overeating. In the messy kitchen, women who wrote about a time when they felt in control consumed fewer cookie calories than the women who wrote about being out of control.
As the researchers pointed out our mindset affects whether we win overeat unhealthy foods while in a messy kitchen. If we go into the kitchen with an “in-control?” attitude, we might not eat as many cookies. But then again, why not try out cleaning up the kitchen and see what it does?
Everything that feeds you doesn’t come on a plate such as your relationships, physical activity, and spirituality. Your home environment is also a big part of that nourishment (营养). So whether you tidy up your kitchen or your living room- being mindful of your living space (just like your diet!) can have a positive effect on health.
12. Why were the students asked to write if they were feeling in control or not?
A. To find out the relationship between the environment and mindsets.
B. To learn if the could choose the right amount of food to eat.
C. To see the effect of the mindset on eating.
D. To make them stay long in the kitchen.
13. What does the underlined word “trigger” in paragraph 3 mean?
A. Break up.
B. Depend on.
C. Hold back.
D. Set off.
14. What suggestion does the author give?
A. Keeping your living space clean.
B. Staying away from unhealthy food.
C. Protecting yourself against overeating.
D. Finding suitable ways to slay healthy.
15. What type of writing is the text likely to be?
A. An announcement.
B. A research report.
C. A study plan.
D. A medical report.
【答案】12. C 13. D 14. A 15. B
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。主要介绍了研究表明,凌乱的烹饪空间会导致暴饮暴食。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“As part of the study, 101 female students were put in standard kitchen and messy kitchen environments and were asked to write about a time when they felt in control or out of control. Next, they were given cookies, crackers and carrots. Students in the “messy kitchen” who wrote about feeling out of control ate about twice as many cookies as the people in the in-control situation.”(作为研究的一部分,101名女学生被安排在标准的厨房和凌乱的厨房环境中,并被要求写下她们在控制或失去控制时的感受。接下来,给她们曲奇饼干、咸饼干和胡萝卜。在“凌乱的厨房”中,那些写下感觉失控的学生吃的饼干大约是处于控制状态的学生的两倍。)可知,学生们被要求写下她们是否感觉在控制之中是为了看看心态对饮食的影响。故选C项。
【13题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第三段中“The researchers found that a messy environment can actually make people more likely to eat unhealthy foods”(研究人员发现,凌乱的环境实际上会让人们更有可能吃不健康的食物)以及“In the messy kitchen, women who wrote about a time when they felt in control consumed fewer cookie calories than the women who wrote about being out of control.”(在凌乱的厨房里,那些描述自己处于控制状态的女性比那些描述自己处于失控状态的女性摄入的饼干卡路里要少。)可知,人们在这种环境中的心态可以引发或防止暴饮暴食,故可猜测,划线单词trigger为“引发”的意思,结合选项D项Set off“引起,激起”意思一致。故选D项。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Your home environment is also a big part of that nourishment (营养). So whether you tidy up your kitchen or your living room- being mindful of your living space (just like your diet!) can have a positive effect on health.”(你的家庭环境也是这种营养的重要组成部分。所以,无论你是整理厨房还是客厅,注意你的生活空间(就像你的饮食一样!)都会对健康产生积极的影响。)可推知,作者给出的建议是保持生活空间整洁。故选A项。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章大意以及第一段中“According to a study, a messy(凌乱的)cooking space can lead to overeating.”(根据一项研究,凌乱的烹饪空间会导致暴饮暴食。)和倒数第二段中“As the researchers pointed out, our mindset affects whether we win overeat unhealthy foods while in a messy kitchen.”(正如研究人员指出的那样,我们的心态会影响我们在凌乱的厨房里是否会吃得过多。)可推知,这篇文章可能是一份研究报告。故选B项。

In the 16th century, Wales was joined to the Kingdom of England. In the 18th century, Scotland was joined to create the Kingdom of Great Britain. In the 19th century, Ireland____37____(add) to create the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland. Finally, in the 20th century, the southern part of Ireland broke away from the UK, which resulted____38____the full name we have today — the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland.
The four countries that belong to the United Kingdom work together in some ____39____(area). They use the same flag and share the same currency and military ____40____(defend) but they also have some differences in education and legal systems, traditions, etc.
In the history of the UK, there are four important groups of people ___41___ took over at different times. In the first century, the Romans came and built towns and roads.

【答案】36. has
37. was added
38. in 39. areas
40. defence##defense
41. who/that
42. the 43. leaving
44. built 45. surprised
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了英国在不同时期国家名字的由来。
【36题详解】
考查时态和主谓一致。句意:了解一点英国历史将有助于你理解为什么英国有几个不同的名字。从句描述的是客观事实,从句谓语动词have使用一般现在时,主语“the UK”为单数意义,故填has。
【37题详解】
考查时态和语态。句意:19世纪,爱尔兰被加入,建立了大不列颠及爱尔兰联合王国。add在句子中作为谓语动词使用,由“in the 19th century”可知,句子使用一般过去时,主语Ireland为单数意义与add被动关系,因此谓语动词add应该使用一般过去时的被动语态形式,故填was added。
【38题详解】
考查固定短语。句意:最后,在20世纪,爱尔兰南部脱离了英国,这就产生了今天的全名——大不列颠及北爱尔兰联合王国。固定短语result in:导致,故填in。
【39题详解】
考查名词的数。句意:属于联合王国的四个国家在某些领域合作。area在句子中作为可数名词使用,前面有some修饰,则area需要变复数,故填areas。
【40题详解】
考查名词。句意:它们使用相同的旗帜,共享相同的货币和军事防御,但在教育、法律制度、传统等方面也有一些差异。分析句子可知,此处需要填入defend的名词defence/defense作宾语,它在句子中作为不可数名词使用,故填defence/defense。
【41题详解】
考查定语从句。句意:在英国历史上,有四个重要的群体在不同时期接管了政权。分析句子结构可知,空格处引导限制性定语从句,four important groups of people是先行词,指人,关系词在从句中作主语,因此使用关系代词that或who引导定语从句,故填who/that。
【42题详解】
考查冠词。句意:他们引入了英语,并改变了人们建造房屋的方式。名词way (方式)后面有限制性定语从句“people built houses”的修饰和限制,因此way前面要使用定冠词the,表示特指意义,故填the。
【43题详解】
考查现在分词。句意:维京人出现在八世纪,留下了许多新的词汇和英国各地的名字。分析句子结构可知,leave在句子中作为非谓语动词使用,“The Vikings”与leave为逻辑主动关系,因此使用现在分词作状语,故填leaving。
【44题详解】
考查过去分词。句意:11世纪,诺曼人征服了英格兰,建造了城堡,并改变了法律制度。分析句子结构可知,build在句子中作为非谓语动词使用,castles与build是逻辑被动关系,因此使用build的过去分词作宾语补足语,即此处为“have sth. done”的结构,表示“某件事被做”,故填built。
【45题详解】
考查形容词。句意:如果你睁大眼睛,你会惊讶地发现你可以看到它的过去和现在。此处使用-ed形容词surprised作表语,修饰人,故填surprised。

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。
One hot afternoon, my brother Mat, a skateboarder, and I were out in front of my grandparents’ house. Mat was determined (下决心) to jump on his skateboard over a chair that he had placed in the street. I was watching him try again and again. He treated this sport, skateboarding, an important and popular sport in my country, with great love and determination. Anytime he fell down, he got right back up and tried it again.
That hot afternoon,I could see him sweating. I was worried that he’d get heatstroke (中暑). I had heard grown-ups talk about people dying of heatstroke, and I kind of understood what it was. I really didn’t want my brother to get it.
So sitting on the porch (门廊) of my grandparents’ house, I was thinking of ways to keep him cool. Just then, Mat called me, “Hey Betty, could you get me my iced tea?” I replied to his request with a nod and stood up to go get the tea. I quickly went inside the house and headed through the hallway toward Grandma’s kitchen. My grandma was making toast. When walking toward her, I heard the most shocking sound I had ever heard in my short life.
“What was that?” Grandma asked. “Did Mat scream?” As I ran through the house toward the front door, I had one thing on my mind heatstroke. When I saw Mat, my image of Mat, my big brother and protector, was destroyed. He lay still on the ground. My grandma came up, told me to go and wait inside for her. Later, neighbors took my brother to the hospital. It turned out that the heatstroke had caused him to fall and break his bones.
I didn’t get to see Mat for at least a month. Finally, I could get to see my brother together with my family. In the hospital, I found bandages around his legs. Weeks later, on the day of his leaving the hospital, the doctors said Mat probably wouldn’t walk again for the rest of his life.
注意:
1.续写词数应为150左右;
2.请按如下格式作答。
But Mat didn’t believe it when coming home in a wheelchair.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
And it didn’t take long before Mat could run and play again, like any other kid.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】But Mat didn’t believe it when coming home in a wheelchair. And just days later, Mat determined to walk again. He would get up out of his wheelchair and try to walk around with two walking sticks. After a while, incredibly, he didn’t use his wheelchair. If he wanted to go somewhere, he would walk with the two walking sticks. Soon he didn’t even need the sticks. He couldn’t run yet, but he was really trying to become the guy he had been before the accident.
And it didn’t take long before Mat could run and play again, like any other kid. Then one Sunday, to my surprise, he took his skateboard from the basement, walked outside the house, and determined to skate again. This time, he paid more attention to safety while skating. After that Sunday, he continued practicing. Eventually, he went from not being able to skate to being one of the best skateboarders that I know. That inspired me and also many others to face any difficulty in life with determination and optimism.

【导语】文章以时间发展为线索展开。一个炎热的午后,我和马特在祖父母家玩。马特尝试把滑板从椅子上滑过去,每一次摔倒后,他都会马上爬起来再试一次。见到马特汗涔涔的样子,由于担心他中暑,我考虑想办法让他凉下来。而此时,马特喊我帮他拿冰茶,我答应了他的要求。就在我去厨房拿冰茶的时候,我听到了祖母大喊。马特因为中暑摔倒了,随后邻居送马特去了医院,事实证明马特摔断了骨头。几周后,在马特出院那天,医生说马特可能一辈子都不会再走路了。
