The 30-square-kilometre beautiful Naigu area is known as a natural museum of karst landforms.

The lantern parade dances in the moonlight, like fish, chasing the moon reflected in the water.In the crowd, Wang Lijun, a 27-year-old villager who serves as the “head fish”, leads the parade of lanterns. Sometimes she cheers on the team behind her. Traditionally, respected elders held the position of “head fish”, but in recent years, younger players returning to their hometown have taken on the role as volunteers. “It has become an emotional connection. Such an energetic custom has attracted more young villagers like me back home, and also young tourists flooding in to experience this traditional Chinese culture,” Wang said.Every year, villagers in Wangmantian hold fish-shaped lantern parades during the Spring Festival. The mountain village often faced the risk of fires in old times. ▲ Over time, such a tradition has developed into a wish for good health and wealth. With a history of over 600 years, the fish-shaped lantern was recognized as a provincial-level intangible cultural heritage (非遗) in 2022. Through social media, more than 100,000 visitors from across the country came to Shexian County to experience the parades during the Spring Festival from February 10th to February 17th in 2025.While protecting the intangible cultural heritage, local people have made efforts on business forms related to the fish-shaped lantern. Total sales of fish-shaped lanterns and related products rose to about 1.15 million yuan ($159,700) during the 2025 Spring Festival. Wang Huawu, a 41-year-old craftsman of fish-shaped lanterns, said that since 2023, his workshop has been “filled with orders” and has received nearly 100,000 yuan worth of orders from Beijing, Shanghai and Guangdong.As fish-shaped lanterns continue to benefit local tourism and related industries, the future looks brighter than ever.22．Which poem best describes the scene of Paragraph 1?A．月色灯山满帝都，香车宝盖溢通衢。 B．舞龙戏珠动地来，欢声雷动震天开。C．鱼灯游行夜未央，水光月色两相望。 D．金狮舞动闹元宵，花灯如昼照天桥。23．Which sentence can be put in “ ▲ ”?A．Besides, the fish-shaped lanterns are usually made of colorful paper and bamboo.B．Therefore, this custom started centuries ago to avoid accidents during the festival.C．However, the lantern parades were called off in some years because of bad weather.D．So villagers used to parade with fish-shaped lanterns, wishing “water overcoming fire”.24．How does the writer show the development of the fish lantern industry in Paragraph 4?A．By listing numbers.

What was once only a dream—described in books such as Arthur C． Clarke’s 2001: A Space Odyssey—is now becoming a reality. Futurologists (未来学家) are scientists who try to predict (预测) what life will be like in the future. After the first man landed on the moon in 1969, they thought that hotels would be built on the moon by the year 2000. Futurologists also considered the possibility that, in the 21st century, families might go for a holiday on the moon. Neither of these predictions have come true yet—but the rapid development of technology may mean these predictions are a possibility in the years to come. Space Adventure is currently the only company to send people into space. Space Adventures worked with the Federal Space Agency of the Russian Federation and Rocket and Space Corporation Energia to offer flights for the world’s first private space explorers. Each person paid over $20 million for their 10-day trip to the International Space Station. Following several successful trips into space, more companies are now thinking about the possibility of sending tourists into space. In order to make it cheaper, suborbital (亚轨道的) space travel is a choice for many companies, including Virgin Galactic. Passengers would go to a height of between 100 and 160 km above earth, experience 3—6 minutes of weightlessness and a view of the stars, then come back down to earth. This costs about $200, 000 per person. While it could be an amazing experience, there are some problems with space tourism. Many people believe that it could make global warming (全球变暖) worse and it is not good for the ozone layer (臭氧层). What’s more, space travel is only really for the rich people. There are still millions of people worldwide who couldn’t pay for it.54．Which book described space tourism? 55．When did the first man land on the moon? 56．Do you think space travel will be easy to popularize (普及) in the future? Why? 第七部分 书面表达(共1题；满分25分)57．假定你是李华，打算在即将到来的暑假期间前往北京旅行。请根据下图提示给你的英国笔友 David写一封80～100词的邮件，分享你的旅行计划。Dear David，______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________Li Hua patient，final，shine，instructions，can’t wait to
