Moving through the air, a gray-haired 79-year-old keeps her head up, eyes closely watching every movement of the giant kite-like inflated (膨胀的) wing as she floats effortlessly across the land. Tracey Hardison, 79, spends most of her spare time going powered paragliding (滑翔伞运动) .
Like any other extreme sports such as skydiving and bungee jumping, more and more young people like to play with it. But Tracey, who started powered paragliding in 2008, sees it as the perfect sport for her. “There are 1, 000 reasons not to do something you don’t like, but there is only one reason you do something you like. I only do what I like. I like doing what challenges me - things that are considered impossible by others”, she said.
She once crashed into rich woodland on a snowy day, and was lucky enough to escape with just a few scratches (刮伤) . One spring nearly a decade ago, Tracey was walking by a river when she saw a man playing with a powered paraglider. It was the first time she had seen it, and she immediately fell for it, begging the man to teach her how to use it.
However, a new powered paraglider would cost her 7, 240 dollars and an additional 600 dollars for lessons, which she could not afford. But she decided to take up the sport, so when she found a secondhand paraglider for half the price, she didn’t think twice. “Took out all my savings to follow my dream to fly”, she said.
Tracey’s daughter, who is 36 and married, could not understand her mother’s choice at the time. She is still strongly against her love for flying, but nothing seems to be able to stop her. Asked how many more years she plans to glide, Tracey replied, “I’ll fly until I’m physically unable to do so.“
4. Why does Tracey spend most of her spare time going powered paragliding?
A. Because she enjoys the feeling of flying.
B. Because she uses it to kill her spare time.
C. Because she loves it and it is challenging.
D. Because she likes adventure and it is interesting.
5. What do you know about Tracey from the passage?
A. She lives a rich life.
B. She is a determined woman.
C. She is good at many extreme sports.
D. She learnt how to use the powered paraglider by herself.
6. How does Tracey’s daughter think of her mother’s choice?
A She is in favor of it B. She is proud of it.
C. She disagrees with it. D. She thinks nothing of it.
7. What does the text mainly tell us?
A. Grandma shares her dreams with others.
B. Grandma practises paragliding everyday.
C Grandma likes the dangerous sports.
D. Grandma follows her dream to fly.
【答案】4. C 5. B 6. C 7. D
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇记叙文。主要讲述了一位79岁的老人热爱滑翔,并始终践行自己滑翔梦想的故事。
【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第二段最后一句“I like doing what challenges me - things that are considered impossible by others, she said.”(她说:“我喜欢做有挑战性的事情,而这些事情别人认为是不可能完成的”)可知,她喜欢滑翔伞运动是因为这是具有挑战性的事情。故选C项。
【5题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第五段第二句“She is still strongly against her love for flying, but nothing seems to be able to stop her. ”(她的女儿强烈地反对她飞行,但是任何事情都无法阻止她。)可知,Tracey是一个意志力坚定的人,自己认定的事情,谁都无法阻止。故选B项。
【6题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第五段第二句“She is still strongly against her love for flying”(她的女儿强烈地反对她飞行)可知,她的女儿并不支持她的爱好。故选C项。
【7题详解】
主旨大意题。根据文章第一段第二句“Tracey Hardison, 79, spends most of her spare time going powered paragliding ”(79岁的Tracey Hardison花费了她大量的空闲时间在滑翔伞运动上。)并结合全文内容可知,Tracey热爱滑翔伞运动,始终坚持自己滑翔的梦想。故选D项。
C
Rescue workers and thousands of volunteers are not the only ones who have won hearts and minds for their heroic efforts in the search for survivors after Tuesday’s powerful earthquake in Mexico. Fifteen dogs from the navy’s canine (犬科的) unit have assisted this week in the rescue efforts at the sites of collapsed buildings across Mexico City, where more than 50 people have been pulled alive from the ruins.
Of the canine heroes none is more famous or loved than Frida, a six-year-old white Labrador who in her outstanding service has won praise for her ability to detect (探测) people who have been trapped by various natural disasters. Over her admirable career she has found 52 people including 12 survivors in Mexico and other Latin American countries.
This week, Frida and Evil and Echo-two Belgian Shepherds that have also been specially trained for rescue efforts were sent to the site of the collapsed Enrique Rebsamen school in southern Mexico City.
Equipped with goggles that protect her eyes from dust and smoke, boots to prevent damage to her paws while she climbs over rough ruins, Frida took up her work looking into every bit of the ruins.
If Frida detects the presence of a survivor, she is trained to bark to warn rescue workers but if she detects a corpse she stops suddenly before continuing, her handler explained.
Eleven children were rescued from ruins at the school but this time human rescue workers rather than the dogs were the ones who located them.
However, that hasn’t stopped Frida from becoming a social media star and winning fame this week. Videos and other social media posts that highlight the work of Frida and her impressive record of detecting people trapped by natural disasters spread quickly online.
While she has yet to detect anyone trapped in the ruins this week, she and other rescue dogs are continuing to work tirelessly, searching through spaces that humans cannot reach. With the possibility that there are still people trapped alive, time will tell whether she adds to her rescue record.
8. What makes Frida a social media star?
A. Her ability to search spaces beyond humans’ reach.
B. Her working together with the rescue team.
C. Her cool appearance with special designs.
D. Her rescue records and tireless work.
9. What does the underlined word “corpse” in paragraph 5 probably mean?
A. A special signal B. A dead body
C. An injured animal D. An article of clothing
10. What can be inferred from the last paragraph?
A. The rest of the rescue will be done by dogs.
B. More dogs will be sent to the area.
C. Frida will probably do a great job.
D. Frida will get nothing.
11. Which of the following is the best title for the passage?
A. Special Rescuers in Mexico B. Powerful Earthquakes in Mexico
C. People Waiting for Rescue D. Children Surviving Natural Disasters
【答案】8. D 9. B 10. C 11. A
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇新闻报道。文章主要介绍的是墨西哥发生强烈地震后,来自海军犬队的十五只狗协助了救援工作,将50多人从废墟中救出。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第七段最后一句“Videos and other social media posts that highlight the work of Frida and her impressive record of detecting people trapped by natural disasters spread quickly online.(视频和其他社交媒体帖子在网上迅速传播,这些视频和帖子强调了弗里达的工作以及她在探测自然灾害受困人员方面令人印象深刻的记录)”可知,使弗里达成为社交媒体明星的是她的营救纪录和孜孜不倦的工作。故选D项。
【9题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第五段“If Frida detects the presence of a survivor, she is trained to bark to warn rescue workers but if she detects a corpse she stops suddenly before continuing, her handler explained.(如果弗里达发现幸存者,她会吠叫以提醒救援人员,但如果发现corpse ,她会突然停下来)”可知,如果弗里达发现幸存者,她会吠叫以提醒救援人员,由but可知,前后是转折对比关系,由此可知,后文指如果她发现死者,就会突然停下,划线部分意为“死者,尸体”。故选B项。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。 根据最后一段“While she has yet to detect anyone trapped in the ruins this week, she and other rescue dogs are continuing to work tirelessly, searching through spaces that humans cannot reach. With the possibility that there are still people trapped alive, time will tell whether she adds to her rescue record.(虽然本周她还没有发现任何被困在废墟中的人,但她和其他搜救犬继续不知疲倦地工作,在人类无法到达的地方进行搜索。有可能仍有人被困,时间会告诉我们她是否增加了她的救援记录。)”可知,某些陷于困境的人仍有幸存的可能性,弗里达和其他救援犬也仍然在孜孜不倦地工作,因此弗里达找到幸存者,刷新营救纪录创造奇迹是可能的,所以说她可能会做得很好。故选C项。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段“Fifteen dogs from the navy’s canine(犬科的)unit have assisted this week in the rescue efforts at the sites of collapsed buildings across Mexico City, where more than 50 people have been pulled alive from the ruins.(本周,来自海军警犬部队的15只警犬协助了墨西哥城各地倒塌建筑的救援工作,已有50多人从废墟中被救出)”可知,本文主要讲述来自海军犬队的十五只狗协助了救援工作,将50多人从废墟中救出。由此可知“墨西哥特殊的救援者”可以作为本文标题,故选A项。
D
Wherever we go, we are surrounded by history. Across the globe, cultural heritage is passed down through the generations. It is in the buildings and structures around us. It is in the arts and artifacts (手工艺品) we treasure. It lives in the languages we speak and the stories we tell. But today, it is under destruction as never before. Not only are the damages of time threatening our cultural heritage, but climate change, globalization and tourism are all demanding a heavy price. Technology is now the most important weapon in the battle. Here’s how technology is preserving our cultural heritage.
As you can imagine, creating the replicas (复制品) by 2 D images is extremely time-consuming. Increasingly, artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms (算法) allow millions of images to be stored in a matter of hours. AI will also make restoration (修复) and preservation of existing cultural heritage far easier and better than methods before.
Virtual reality (VR) technology will play a leading role in preserving our cultural heritage in the coming years. Many of the most important sites and architecture are easily damaged. The presence of hundreds of thousands of tourists on these locations is doing a great deal of harm. Wastes pile up everywhere, causing serious problems. As more cultural heritage sites and objects are digitally mapped and recorded, VR technology will increasingly become the way that people experience them. We’ll all finally be able to walk through places, look at (and touch) artifacts and works of art without ever seeing them with our own eyes.
Finally, our cultural heritage will be preserved by technology. Efforts in research, data sharing and project work will help promote and preserve the cultural heritage of countries all across the world.
12. According to paragraph 1, cultural heritage_____.
A. will never disappear B. will under perfect protection
C. is faced with challenges now D. is damaged by modern technology
13. What is the advantage of AI in preserving cultural heritage?
A. It makes restoration easier. B. It makes preservation safer.
C. It creates replicas in seconds. D. It produces 2D images.
14. How does VR help to preserve cultural heritage?
A. By burying a huge number of wastes.
B. By reducing human influence on the site.
C. By preventing visitors from touching artifacts.
D. By educating people about the sites’ importance.
15. What is the author’s attitude towards technology in cultural protection?
A. Supportive. B. Disagreeing. C. Doubtful. D. Neutral.
【答案】12. C 13. A 14. B 15. A
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了现代科技是如何应用在文化遗产的保护上的。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中“But today, it is under destruction as never before. Not only are the damages of time threatening our cultural heritage, but climate change, globalization and tourism are all demanding a heavy price. (但是今天,它正遭受前所未有的破坏。时间的破坏不仅威胁着我们的文化遗产,而且气候变化、全球化和旅游业都使得文化遗产付出沉重的代价。)”可知,文化遗产正在面临着挑战,故选C。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“AI will also make restoration (修复) and preservation of existing cultural heritage far easier and better than methods before.(人工智能将使现有文化遗产的恢复和保护比以前的方法更容易和更好。)”可知,人工智能在保护文化遗产方面的优势是它能使文化遗产的恢复更容易。故选A。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中“Many of the most important sites and architecture are easily damaged. The presence of hundreds of thousands of tourists on these locations is doing a great deal of harm. Wastes pile up everywhere, causing serious problems. As more cultural heritage sites and objects are digitally mapped and recorded, VR technology will increasingly become the way that people experience them.(许多最重要的遗址和建筑很容易受到破坏。成千上万的游客出现在这些地方造成了极大的伤害。垃圾到处堆积,造成严重的问题。随着越来越多的文化遗产地点和物品被数字化地图和记录,虚拟现实技术将越来越成为人们体验它们的方式。)”可知,虚拟现实技术是通过减少人类对遗址的影响来保护文化遗址的,故选B。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“Finally, our cultural heritage will be preserved by technology. Efforts in research, data sharing and project work will help promote and preserve the cultural heritage of countries all across the world.(最后,我们的文化遗产将通过技术来保存。在研究、数据共享和项目工作方面的努力将有助于促进和保护世界各国的文化遗产。)”可知,作者认为科技有助于保护文化遗产,由此可推知,作者支持科技用于文化遗产的保护,故选A。

【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章讲述从初中到高一对于初升高的学生们是一个很大的挑战,文章也是介绍了在这个时期可以缓解问题的几种方式。
【16题详解】
根据上文“Going from middle school to freshman year of high school is a big challenge.(从初中到高一是一个很大的挑战。)”可知,本句引起全文话题,而下文中出现了小标题,说明这里需要一个过渡句承上启下,G项“Here are some ways to help you deal with anxious feelings and prepare for the first year.(以下是一些帮助你处理焦虑情绪并为第一年做好准备的方法)”符合语境。故选G项。
【17题详解】
根据上文“Getting to know people you haven’t met before is a great way to broaden your horizons.(结识你从未见过的人是拓宽你视野的好方法。)”和下文“Simply sitting with a new person at lunch can be enough to get the ball rolling.(仅仅是和一个陌生人共进午餐就足以让事情开始发展。)”可知,与陌生人接触是可以增加人脉的方法之一,其实用很简单很小的方式,比如共进午餐就可以作为发展关系的开始。A项“If you’re nervous, start small.(如果你紧张,从小事做起)”符合语境,其中中“start small”可以对应“at lunch”这件小事。故选A项。
【18题详解】
空处为本段小标题,根据下文“For most people, going off to high school means heading off to a new campus.(对大多数人来说,上高中就意味着去一个新的校园。)”可知,本段建议探索校园,C项“Explore the campus.(探索校园)”符合题意,“campus”是关键词。故选C项。
【19题详解】
根据上文“High school and middle school are very different in studying.(高中和初中在学习上有很大的不同。)”和下文“You can buy a planner and spend a few minutes each night going over the notes you took in class that day. (你可以买一个记事本,每天晚上花几分钟复习你当天在课堂上做的笔记。)”可知,本段主要讲述在学习方面初高中的不同,作者也给出具体的做法要对于学习有所整理,在E项“Try to get as organized as possible so you can stay on top of your work.(尽可能有条理,这样你就可以学得很好)”符合语境,其中中“as organized as possible(尽可能有条理)”与小标题“Get organized.(要有条理。)”对应。故选E项。
【20题详解】
根据上文“While there’s no need to plan every day for the next three years, it can’t hurt to make a note of classes you want to take or activities you’d like to try.(虽然没有必要为未来三年的每一天做计划,但记下你想上的课程或想参加的活动也无妨。)”和下文“Having a plan in place will help you make the most of your high school experience.(有一个适当的计划可以帮助你充分利用你的高中经历。)”可知,这个部分介绍的方法是给自己做一个计划,规划高中三年的学习,F项中“the three years”与上下文“the next three years”以及“high school experience”有对应关系,符合语境。故选F项。

【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了书面汉语的起源,发展过程及其重要意义。
【36题详解】
考查定语从句。句意:中国以其古老的文明而为人广知,华夏文明流传至今。空处引导限制性定语从句,修饰先行词its ancient civilization,指物,且从句缺少主语,应用that/which来引导,故填which/that。
【37题详解】
考查名词单复数。句意:造成这种情况的主要因素之一是汉语书写系统。one of+可数名词复数,表示“……之一”,所以此处应用名词复数factors,故填factors。
【38题详解】
考查介词。句意: 最初,书面汉语是一种以图片为基础的语言。at the beginning固定搭配,意为“起初,首先”,单词位于句首,首字母大写。故填At。
【39题详解】
考查时态语态。句意:符号被刻在动物的骨头和贝壳上。空处在句中作谓语,句子描述过去发生的事,应用一般过去时,主语symbols和动词crave是被动关系,应用一般过去时的被动语态,主语是复数,故填were carved。
【40题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:在那个时代人们居住在不同的地方,这导致了许多种类的方言和汉字。分析句子结构可知,when引导的从句是定语从句, It was a time是主句,was是谓语,前后无连词,此处应用非谓语动词作状语,其逻辑主语是前面整个句子,此处表示一种自然而然的结果,应用现在分词形式作结果状语,故填leading。
【41题详解】
考查名词。句意:随着秦始皇统一七大国,联系中国人民和文化的重要文字系统开始朝着一个方向发展。of importance=important,意为“重要的”,故填importance。
【42题详解】
考查副词。句意: 即使在今天,中国人无论生活在哪里,说什么方言,他们仍然可以自由地用书面形式来交流。动词communicate应用副词来修饰,表示“自由地”,故填freely。
【43题详解】
考查冠词。句意:书面汉语也已经成为连接中国现在和过去的一个重要手段。名词means表示“方法;手段”是可数名词,此处表示“一个方法”,应用不定冠词来修饰,且important发音是以元音音素开头,应用an,故填an。
【44题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意: 随着时间的推移,汉字逐渐发展成为一种艺术形式,被称为中国书法。句中有谓语developed,前后无连词,应用非谓语动词作后置定语,修饰an art form,be known as固定搭配,意为“被称为”,所以此处应用过去分词known作定语,故填known。
【45题详解】
考查形容词。句意:今天,越来越多的国际学生开始通过这种令人惊叹的语言来欣赏中国的文化和历史。此处应用形容词作定语,修饰名词language,应用-ing结尾的形容词修饰物,表示“令人惊叹的”,故填amazing。

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。
In a story that fits a Hollywood script (剧本), two strange neighbors connected through music and formed an unusual bond by playing the piano together through a wall.
Giorgio Lo Porto is an Italian living in London, England. While he’s never met his neighbor, he knows his new neighbor is a pianist.
His curiosity sets off a series of online videos recording their growing friendship.
Lo Porto then says that he’s left a note telling his neighbor that he loved his music and included a request: Could you play “My Heart Will Go On?” As music starts playing in the background, he posts “I guess it’s a yes.”
In the next video, not only does Lo Porto play the piano, he’s also invited his neighbor to a duet (二重奏). Although he hasn’t played for a while, it appears that his relationship with his neighbor lights up his lost passion for the instrument (乐器).
In another video, Lo Porto begins playing “River Flows Through You,” and stops. At the very moment, his neighbor picks up where he left off.
And just like that, the two started a weekly duet “meet up,” as they played back and forth through the wall.
With every note, Lo Porto’s curiosity about his neighbor’s identity (身份) increased, until one day he took the leap to meet him.
With much expectation and thousands of fascinated online users, Lo Porto revealed (透漏) that he finally met his melodic neighbor.
“Well, today I have met my neighbor. It was better than expected. His name is Emil...” Lo Porto posted.
It turns out that Emil is a 87-year-old native of Poland who recently lost his wife to COVID. He was in between homes as he waited for his house to be sold.
As Lo Porto explained, Emil played the piano at 2 PM every weekend “because his wife loved it.” Playing it “keeps him closer to his wife and away from the painful reminder” of her absence. Lo Porto promised Emil that he would continue their duets till he moved out.

________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】Para. 1:
After that, they kept in touch by phone. Because of COVID, they couldn’t meet and play duets together, but Lo Porto was much concerned with Emil. He made a call to Emil every two days, through which they talked about everything. Lo Porto got to know the story between Emil and his wife and he told Emil how he missed his parents. Sometimes, they played the piano at the same time and Lo Porto would record it and post it online. Gradually, this special friendship attracted more and more people on the Internet, making many people not feel lonely any more during this special period.
Para. 2:
However, bad news came. It wasn’t long before Emil passed away in his sleep. On hearing it, Lo Porto was overwhelmed with sadness. He could not help thinking of the good times they shared through a wall. He then posted an emotional goodbye to the friend who had a lasting impact. “Dear Emil, now you have reunited with your wife. I knew very little about you, but you changed my life. You’ll be in my heart, “he wrote. After that, Lo Porto would play the piano at 2 PM every weekend in memory of the friendship between Emil and him. It was Emil that lighted up his lost passion for piano. Though his house was sold, the unusual bond between them would last forever.
