The world is full of beauty in every corner. Here are four world’s top breathtaking and beautiful travelling destinations (目的地) for you to pay a visit to.
Dominica
Dominica is known as “nature island” for a reason. This tiny Caribbean state, focuses on hot springs and long -distance walking in the rainforest rather than playing on the beach. Boiling Lake, in the Morne Trois Pitons National Park, can be reached by mountainous paths, a body of water that is well worth a visit.
Lake Bled, Slovenia
Lake Bled is one of the largest freshwater lakes on Earth. At its center lies a small island, surrounded by deep blue water. It’s no surprise that Lake Bled has developed into one of the hottest destinations in Europe in recent years. Suitable for walking and diving (潜水) adventures, this is a corner of Slovenia that needs to be explored.
Samburu, Kenya
As a hard-to-reach place in the heart of Kenya, Samburu provides a quiet and safe environment, which is good enough for some of Africa’s most unique wildlife to live in. The rich grassland of its national nature protection area is home to the endangered giraffe, as well as the pioneering Elephant Watch Camp.
Positano, Italy
Located on Italy’s Amalfi Coast, Positano is one of the most beautiful villages in Europe. Famous for its special small gift shops and waterside restaurants, not to mention the Byzantine Church (教堂), it makes for the perfect summer getaway. For divers, with its colorful plants and fish, it’s a really perfect place. Make sure to see its full form by taking a boat out from the beach for excellent sunset views.

“Luckily, I have some outside space on my balcony (阳台). I love surprising myself with what I can successfully grow there. It is a not so-secret trick: going vertical (垂直),” said Song, a college student from Shandong Province, when interviewed by a local media.
According to a recent report, the sales of vegetable seeds online in the first quarter doubled compared with the same period last year. Sales of products like gardening tools have increased by three times since April of last year. Out of all the people buying farming tools and seeds, most were born after 2000, like Song.
Song, a young “balcony farmer”, said his passion for planting was formed in his childhood when he lived with his grandma in the countryside, who liked to plant seasonal vegetables in her backyard garden. Now, Song lives in the city without a yard, but he continues his hobby with a balcony garden. “Growing fruits and vegetables not only brings delicious food, but also reminds me of the happy times with my grandma,” said Song.
Song is not alone. Fang Hua, from a computer company, considers planting a garden a good way to relax and develop patience. Bearing many working responsibilities, the 26- year old girl sometimes feels stressful. To relax herself, she started planting seeds and waited patiently on her balcony in 2021. After half a year, her balcony has become a “small garden”, including different flowers and herds.
“I need a space to escape from my daily duties,” Fang said, seeing the various colors and breathing fresh air. “I feel closer to nature on my balcony.” The vegetables and herbs may not be main foods on our table, but they will surely add a touch of taste to our busy days.
The youth like Song and Fang believe being a city farmer means a lot to their life. In fact the young people of the new era seem to know life better than their parents.
4. What can we know from paragraph 2
A. The cost of gardening tools has risen now.
B. Balcony farming is difficult for most people.
C. More flowers and vegetables are sold online.
D. Many young people become interested in farming.
5. What inspired Song to start farming on his balcony
A. His learning stress. B. His good taste for food.
C. His house with a big balcony. D. His experience with his grandma.
6. Why does the author mention Fang’s story
A. To show a similar example. B. To give more advice.
C. To present another fact. D. To explain a problem.
7. What’s the most positive result the “small garden” brings to Fang
A. Healthy eating habits. B. Extra money.
C. Improving gardening skills. D. Getting relaxed.
【答案】4. D 5. D 6. A 7. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道,主要讲的是年轻人在阳台种植的这种流行趋势。
【4题详解】

Margaret is a famous climate activist (气候活动家). When she was thirty- two years old, she created an Egyptian charity organization called the Green Generation Initiative (倡议), which has been planting trees and countering the acts of cutting down the forests at will and climate change in the North African nation since 2013.
GGI’s primary focus is on developing young climate activists through environmental education in schools and addressing food unsafety in the area through planting fruit trees.
Over 120, 000 trees have been planted in Egypt since GGI’s start and they have recorded a survival rate of over 90 percent, while thousands of schoolchildren have chosen to plant trees to make sure that they learn the importance of acting as a guardian over the health of the environment.
Speaking to world leaders at the United Nations Climate Change Conference in Glasgow, Margaret issued a warning on the harm of climate change, “Over 1 million of my fellow Egyptians are facing climate related hunger. In 2024, half of the world’s population will be short of water. By 2030, the climate problem will make about 50 million people in Sub- Saharan Africa homeless.”
Margaret added, “I have been doing what I can. I was inspired by the great Maathai, who called on thousands of women and men to plant tens of millions of trees throughout Kenya. Her approach was practical and deeply ecological (生态的). She was the first African woman to win the Nobel Peace Prize. I started a tree growing initiative that raised the awareness of food safety for young Egyptians. So far, we have grown 30, 000 fruit trees, providing badly needed food for thousands of children. We are the adults on the Earth right now, and it is our responsibility to ensure that the children have food and water.”
8. What does the underlined word “countering” in paragraph l mean
A. Trying out. B. Worrying about.
C. Passing on. D. Fighting against.
9. What is a purpose of the Green Generation Initiative
A. To plant useful fruit trees at school. B. To increase the survival rate of trees.
C. To deal with food unsafety in Egypt. D. To raise enough money for a charity.
10. What do the numbers in paragraph 4 illustrate
A. The great waste of water resources.
B. The serious impact of climate change.
C. The bad results of people’s going hungry.
D. The rapid growth of the world population.
11. What does Margaret suggest in the last paragraph
A. Working for the Nobel Prize. B. Expressing thanks to Maathai.
C. Being responsible for the future. D. Making more children educated.
【答案】8. D 9. C 10. B 11. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了著名气候活动家玛格丽特创建了一个名为“绿色一代倡议”的慈善组织。

【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“GGI’s primary focus is on developing young climate activists through environmental education in schools and addressing food unsafety in the area through planting fruit trees. (GGI的主要重点是通过学校的环境教育培养年轻的气候活动家,并通过种植果树解决该地区的食品不安全问题。)”可知,“绿色一代计划”的目的是解决埃及的食品不安全问题。故选C。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段“Speaking to world leaders at the United Nations Climate Change Conference in Glasgow, Margaret issued a warning on the harm of climate change, “Over 1 million of my fellow Egyptians are facing climate related hunger. In 2024, half of the world’s population will be short of water. By 2030, the climate problem will make about 50 million people in Sub- Saharan Africa homeless.”(在格拉斯哥举行的联合国气候变化会议上,玛格丽特对世界各国领导人发出了气候变化危害的警告,“我的100多万埃及同胞正面临与气候有关的饥饿。到2024年,世界上一半的人口将缺水。到2030年,气候问题将使撒哈拉以南非洲约5000万人无家可归。”)”可推断,本段中的数字说明了气候变化的严重影响。故选B。
【11题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段“We are the adults on the Earth right now, and it is our responsibility to ensure that the children have food and water. (我们现在是地球上的成年人,我们有责任确保孩子们有食物和水。)”可知,玛格丽特在最后一段中提出了对未来负责的建议。故选C。

The way you use your cellphones around your family can have an effect on your relationships. Cellphones can make you feel more connected, but they can also distract (使分心) you and your family from connecting with each other in person. While some people need to check their phones for work or emergency (紧急情况) purposes, it’s important to make meaningful connections through face to face communication.
Some people have trouble putting away their cellphones. They might feel they can’t control how often they pick up their phones or how long they use them. They might feel the need to often check phones without a real reason or feel upset if they don’t have an opportunity to use their phones. Using cellphones for work purposes during family time can increase worries and unhappiness among family members. While using their cellphones, parents talk to their kids less, reply more slowly, and overreact to being interrupted. And ignoring their partner while on the phone is linked to lower relationship satisfaction among couples.
Once you’ve given some thought to your own cellphone use, think about the rules you want your family to follow when you’re together. To get your family on the same page, call a family meeting. Review each person’s current cellphone use and areas where you think some changes might help. It’s not just about simply cutting cellphone use down. Instead, consider what you’re using your phone for and what activities you want to carry out.
For example, are you or your children using phones to stay connected, learn something new, do school work, or do something else If you have kids, ask their opinions on your own phone use. You might be surprised by what they have to share. Use good communication skills by practicing active listening and showing curiosity about what each family member has to say.
Less phone use also usually means less screen time, which enables kids to spend more time outdoors and be more physically active. When teens spend more time actively with their parents, they tend to set higher educational goals.
12. What’s the first paragraph mainly about
A. Family members’ connections. B. Cellphones’ new challenges at home.
C. One disadvantage of the cellphones. D. People’s staying away from cellphones.
13. How do some people feel when they have no phone at hand
A. Uneasy. B. Uncertain. C. Curious. D. Homesick.
14. Why should a family meeting be held
A. To carry out activities. B. To reach an agreement.
C To share the latest news. D. To set an example to others.
15. What can be the best title for the text
A. Are Cellphones Influencing Family Time
B Are Mobile Phones Changing People’s Life
C. How Can People Get Along with Their Parents
D. How Do Children Set Right Educational Goals
【答案】12. C 13. A 14. B 15. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文,主要讲的是过度使用手机对家庭关系的不良影响和如何解决这个问题。
【12题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段的“The way you use your cellphones around your family can have an effect on your relationships.

【13题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段的“They might feel the need to often check phones without a real reason or feel upset if they don’t have an opportunity to use their phones.(他们可能会觉得有必要经常在没有真正理由的情况下查看手机,或者如果他们没有机会使用手机就会感到不安。)”可知,有些人在手边没有手机时感到不安,故选A。

【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道,主要讲的是Wen Xiang在北京举办了一场展览,让观众沉浸在类似“卧游”的环境中。
【36题详解】
考查不定式。句意:“卧游”一词是中国古人发明的,用来形容一幅精美的山水画所带来的生动感觉。空格处用不定式表目的,故填to describe。
【37题详解】
考查动名词。句意:即使人们不旅行,享受作品也有助于创造一种被现实世界的风景包围的沉浸式体验。主语谓语动词是helps,故空格处用动名词作主语,位于句首,首字母大写,故填Enjoying。
【38题详解】
考查介词。句意:多年后,他还在北京故宫博物院做了一段时间的志愿者,学习馆藏的古代艺术品。work as是固定短语,意为“以……身份而工作”,故填as。

【42题详解】
考查时态,语态和主谓一致。句意:Wen在1991年被提供了一个机会去日本进行文化交流。Wen是被提供机会,由in 1991可知,时态用一般过去时,因此空格处是一般过去时的被动语态,主语Wen是单数,因此空格处是was offered。故填was offered。
【43题详解】
考查定语从句。句意:他创作了反映日本美学影响的绘画和照片,这些作品也将在此次展览中展出。空格处引导的是非限制性定语从句,从句中缺少主语,先行词paintings和photos是物,因此空格处用关系代词which,故填which。

You are probably very hungry I cooked your favorite noodles, come and eat while they are still hot...” No longer able to control myself, I cried in her arms. “I ’m sorry, mom, please forgive me.” I whispered to her through tears, extremely ashamed of myself.
【解析】
【分析】本文是一篇读后续写。
【详解】本篇书面表达是读后续写。通过阅读所给文章可知,作者因为和妈妈吵架跑了出去。之后他饿了,但是没带钱,幸运的是好心的店主给了她一碗面条,她因为感动而落泪。而店主知道后对她说,自己就给了你一碗面就让你这么感激,而你小时候母亲一直在照顾你,为什么你不感恩,为什么?你伤害了你妈妈吗?店主的话让作者开始反思自己。
续写部分分为两段,第一段开头是:就那一瞬间,很多回忆涌入脑海……,所以这一段应该写我的回忆。要详细描写妈妈是如何照顾我支持我的。第二段开头是:回到家之后,我看见妈妈坐在餐桌边,担忧又疲惫。本段应该写我回到家之后妈妈的反应,妈妈没有责怪我,反而在关心我。我因为愧疚向妈妈道歉,希望能得到她的原谅。
续写时要求使用5个以上短文中标有下划线的关键词语增加了写作难度,我们要熟悉所给划线词语,恰当的时候加以运用。最后还要注意所续写短文的词数应为150左右;续写完成后,请用下划线标出你所使用的关键词语。按要求完成写作任务。

A
The world is full of beauty in every corner. Here are four world’s top breathtaking and beautiful travelling destinations (目的地) for you to pay a visit to.
Dominica
Dominica is known as “nature island” for a reason. This tiny Caribbean state, focuses on hot springs and long -distance walking in the rainforest rather than playing on the beach. Boiling Lake, in the Morne Trois Pitons National Park, can be reached by mountainous paths, a body of water that is well worth a visit.
Lake Bled, Slovenia
Lake Bled is one of the largest freshwater lakes on Earth. At its center lies a small island, surrounded by deep blue water. It’s no surprise that Lake Bled has developed into one of the hottest destinations in Europe in recent years. Suitable for walking and diving (潜水) adventures, this is a corner of Slovenia that needs to be explored.
Samburu, Kenya
As a hard-to-reach place in the heart of Kenya, Samburu provides a quiet and safe environment, which is good enough for some of Africa’s most unique wildlife to live in. The rich grassland of its national nature protection area is home to the endangered giraffe, as well as the pioneering Elephant Watch Camp.
Positano, Italy
Located on Italy’s Amalfi Coast, Positano is one of the most beautiful villages in Europe. Famous for its special small gift shops and waterside restaurants, not to mention the Byzantine Church (教堂), it makes for the perfect summer getaway. For divers, with its colorful plants and fish, it’s a really perfect place. Make sure to see its full form by taking a boat out from the beach for excellent sunset views.

“Luckily, I have some outside space on my balcony (阳台). I love surprising myself with what I can successfully grow there. It is a not so-secret trick: going vertical (垂直),” said Song, a college student from Shandong Province, when interviewed by a local media.
According to a recent report, the sales of vegetable seeds online in the first quarter doubled compared with the same period last year. Sales of products like gardening tools have increased by three times since April of last year. Out of all the people buying farming tools and seeds, most were born after 2000, like Song.
Song, a young “balcony farmer”, said his passion for planting was formed in his childhood when he lived with his grandma in the countryside, who liked to plant seasonal vegetables in her backyard garden. Now, Song lives in the city without a yard, but he continues his hobby with a balcony garden. “Growing fruits and vegetables not only brings delicious food, but also reminds me of the happy times with my grandma,” said Song.
Song is not alone. Fang Hua, from a computer company, considers planting a garden a good way to relax and develop patience. Bearing many working responsibilities, the 26- year old girl sometimes feels stressful. To relax herself, she started planting seeds and waited patiently on her balcony in 2021. After half a year, her balcony has become a “small garden”, including different flowers and herds.
“I need a space to escape from my daily duties,” Fang said, seeing the various colors and breathing fresh air. “I feel closer to nature on my balcony.” The vegetables and herbs may not be main foods on our table, but they will surely add a touch of taste to our busy days.
The youth like Song and Fang believe being a city farmer means a lot to their life. In fact, the young people of the new era seem to know life better than their parents.
4. What can we know from paragraph 2
A. The cost of gardening tools has risen now.
B. Balcony farming is difficult for most people.
C. More flowers and vegetables are sold online.
D. Many young people become interested in farming.
5. What inspired Song to start farming on his balcony
A. His learning stress. B. His good taste for food.
C. His house with a big balcony. D. His experience with his grandma.
6. Why does the author mention Fang’s story
A. To show a similar example. B. To give more advice.
C. To present another fact. D. To explain a problem.
7. What’s the most positive result the “small garden” brings to Fang
A. Healthy eating habits. B. Extra money.
C. Improving gardening skills. D. Getting relaxed.
C
Margaret is a famous climate activist (气候活动家). When she was thirty- two years old, she created an Egyptian charity organization called the Green Generation Initiative (倡议), which has been planting trees and countering the acts of cutting down the forests at will and climate change in the North African nation since 2013.
GGI’s primary focus is on developing young climate activists through environmental education in schools and addressing food unsafety in the area through planting fruit trees.
Over 120, 000 trees have been planted in Egypt since GGI’s start and they have recorded a survival rate of over 90 percent, while thousands of schoolchildren have chosen to plant trees to make sure that they learn the importance of acting as a guardian over the health of the environment.
Speaking to world leaders at the United Nations Climate Change Conference in Glasgow, Margaret issued a warning on the harm of climate change, “Over 1 million of my fellow Egyptians are facing climate related hunger. In 2024, half of the world’s population will be short of water. By 2030, the climate problem will make about 50 million people in Sub- Saharan Africa homeless.”
Margaret added, “I have been doing what I can. I was inspired by the great Maathai, who called on thousands of women and men to plant tens of millions of trees throughout Kenya. Her approach was practical and deeply ecological (生态的). She was the first African woman to win the Nobel Peace Prize. I started a tree growing initiative that raised the awareness of food safety for young Egyptians. So far, we have grown 30, 000 fruit trees, providing badly needed food for thousands of children. We are the adults on the Earth right now, and it is our responsibility to ensure that the children have food and water.”
8. What does the underlined word “countering” in paragraph l mean
A. Trying out. B. Worrying about.
C. Passing on. D. Fighting against.
9. What is a purpose of the Green Generation Initiative
A. To plant useful fruit trees at school. B. To increase the survival rate of trees.
C. To deal with food unsafety in Egypt. D. To raise enough money for a charity.
10. What do the numbers in paragraph 4 illustrate
A. The great waste of water resources.
B. The serious impact of climate change.
C. The bad results of people’s going hungry.
D. The rapid growth of the world population.
11. What does Margaret suggest in the last paragraph
A. Working for the Nobel Prize. B. Expressing thanks to Maathai.
C. Being responsible for the future. D. Making more children educated.
D
The way you use your cellphones around your family can have an effect on your relationships. Cellphones can make you feel more connected, but they can also distract (使分心) you and your family from connecting with each other in person. While some people need to check their phones for work or emergency (紧急情况) purposes, it’s important to make meaningful connections through face to face communication.
Some people have trouble putting away their cellphones. They might feel they can’t control how often they pick up their phones or how long they use them. They might feel the need to often check phones without a real reason or feel upset if they don’t have an opportunity to use their phones. Using cellphones for work purposes during family time can increase worries and unhappiness among family members. While using their cellphones, parents talk to their kids less, reply more slowly, and overreact to being interrupted. And ignoring their partner while on the phone is linked to lower relationship satisfaction among couples.
Once you’ve given some thought to your own cellphone use, think about the rules you want your family to follow when you’re together. To get your family on the same page, call a family meeting. Review each person’s current cellphone use and areas where you think some changes might help. It’s not just about simply cutting cellphone use down. Instead, consider what you’re using your phone for and what activities you want to carry out.
For example, are you or your children using phones to stay connected, learn something new, do school work, or do something else If you have kids, ask their opinions on your own phone use. You might be surprised by what they have to share. Use good communication skills by practicing active listening and showing curiosity about what each family member has to say.
Less phone use also usually means less screen time, which enables kids to spend more time outdoors and be more physically active. When teens spend more time actively with their parents, they tend to set higher educational goals.
12. What’s the first paragraph mainly about
A. Family members’ connections. B. Cellphones’ new challenges at home.
C. One disadvantage of the cellphones. D. People’s staying away from cellphones.
13. How do some people feel when they have no phone at hand
A. Uneasy. B. Uncertain. C. Curious. D. Homesick.
14. Why should a family meeting be held
A. To carry out activities. B. To reach an agreement.
C. To share the latest news. D. To set an example to others.
15. What can be the best title for the text
A. Are Cellphones Influencing Family Time
B. Are Mobile Phones Changing People’s Life
C. How Can People Get Along with Their Parents
D. How Do Children Set Right Educational Goals
