It was dark as Ibrahim Al Hussein came to. He couldn’t move and thick dust filled the air, blocking out all but a few small flames dancing close by. It was hard to breathe. Something wasn’t right and he could not feel his foot. As the smoke of the bombing cleared Al Hussein was saved but lost his lower right leg forever.
After several twists and turns, Al Hussein managed to escape from war-torn Syria to Athens, Greece. With no money left on him, he had to sleep on the streets and look for fruit in trees or eat grass from the park. Luckily, he later found work cleaning toilets at a local cafe. He worked every day of the week with no breaks and was proud to be supporting himself. But he was missing something — sport.
Al Hussein used to be a sportsman. As war broke out in Syria in 2011, all sports stadiums were forced to close, but now settled and safe in Athens, he was desperate to return to physical activity. In May, 2015, his prayers were answered. A swimming club gave him permission to train there.
“When I looked at the address I realised it was the Athens Aquatics Centre,” says Al Hussein, who, at the age of 16, had watched the 2004 Olympics unfold on a small TV in his cosy Syrian home. “Seeing those Olympics gave me motivation to do sport and although it was a flashback to the past, it was also a look to a better future because I had made it to the pool I’d watched and dreamt of swimming in.”
For much of 2015 he swam in the morning and then worked at the cafe until late in the evening. It was tough, but it worked for him and, in early 2016, he secured two medals at the Greek Para Swimming National Championships. People began to take note.
24. What caused Al Hussein to lose his lower right leg
A. A war. B. A fire. C. An illness. D. An accident.
25. What is the second paragraph mainly about
A. Why Al Hussein worked hard. B. How Al Hussein escaped from Syria.
C. Why Al Hussein missed sport. D. How Al Hussein survived in Greece.
26. What can be inferred about the Athens Aquatics Centre
A. It was forced to close in 2011. B. The 2004 Olympics were held there.
C. It used to be a swimming club. D. Al Hussein went there at age 16.
27. Which of the following can best describe Al Hussein
A. Independent but proud. B. Motivated but stubborn.
C. Hardworking and optimistic D. Ambitious and religious.
C
Franz Kafka wrote that “a book must be the ax for the frozen sea inside us”. I once shared this sentence with a class of seventh graders, and it didn’t seem to require any explanation.
We’d just finished John Steinbeck’s novel Of Mice and Men. When we read the end together out loud in class, my toughest boy, a star basketball player, wept a little, and so did I. “Are you crying ” one girl asked, as she got out of her chair to take a closer look. “I am,” I told her, “and the funny thing is I’ve read it many times.”
But they understood. When George shoots Lennie, the tragedy is that we realize it was always going to happen. In my 14 years of teaching in a New York City public middle school, I’ve taught kids with imprisoned parents, abusive parents, irresponsible parents; kids who are parents themselves; kids who are homeless; kids who grew up in violent neighborhoods. They understand, more than I ever will, the novel’s terrible logic-the giving way of dreams to fate.
For the last seven years, I have worked as a reading enrichment teacher, reading classic works of literature with small groups of students from grades six to eight. I originally proposed this idea to my headmaster after learning that a former excellent student of mine had transferred out of a selective high school-one that often attracts the literary-minded children of Manhattan’s upper classes-into a less competitive setting. The daughter of immigrants, with a father in prison, she perhaps felt uncomfortable with her new classmates. I thought additional “cultural capital” could help students like her develop better in high school, where they would unavoidably meet, perhaps for the first time, students who came from homes lined with bookshelves, whose parents had earned Ph.D.’s.
Along with Of Mice and Men, my groups read: Sounder, The Red Pony, Lord of the Flies, Romeo and Juliet and Macbeth. The students didn’t always read from the expected point of view.
About The Red Pony, one student said, “it’s about being a man, it’s about manliness.” I had never before seen the parallels between Scarface and Macbeth, nor had I heard Lady Macbeth’s soliloquies read as raps, but both made sense; the interpretations were playful, but serious. Once introduced to Steinbeck’s writing, one boy went on to read The Grapes of Wrath and told me repeatedly how amazing it was that “all these people hate each other, and they’re all white.” His historical view was broadening, his sense of his own country deepening. Year after year, former students visited and told me how prepared they had felt in their first year in college as a result of the classes.
Year after year, however, we are increasing the number of practice tests. We are trying to teach students to read increasingly complex texts, not for emotional punch but for text complexity. Yet, we cannot enrich the minds of our students by testing them on texts that ignore their hearts. We are teaching them that words do not amaze but confuse. We may succeed in raising test scores, but we will fail to teach them that reading can be transformative and that it belongs to them.
28. The underlined words in Paragraph 1 probably mean that a book helps to ________.
A. awake our emotions B. give support to our life
C. smooth away difficulties D. realize our dreams
29. Why were the students able to understand the novel Of Mice and Men？
A. Because they spent much time reading it.
B. Because they had read the novel before.
C. Because they came from a public school.
D. Because they had similar life experiences.
30.The girl left the selective high school possibly because ________.
A. she was a literary-minded girl B. her parents were immigrants
C. she couldn’t fit in with her class D. her father was then in prison
31.The author writes the passage mainly to________.
A. introduce classic works of literature
B. advocate teaching literature to touch the heart
C. argue for equality among high school students
D. defend the current testing system
D
Coral reefs (珊瑚礁) are among the most productive ecosystems in the world. They’re also in serious danger—climate change and other threats are killing them off. But researchers have come up with an invention they think could help the reefs: 3D-printed corals.
At the heart of reef ecosystems lies a symbiosis (共生关系) between corals and algae (藻类). Corals use light and they’re photosynthesizing (光合作用). The algae inside corals’ tissues (组织) make use of the light to generate energy, and that energy is then transferred to the coral animal host. That animal host, in return, transfers certain by-products to the algae, so they have a symbiosis going on.
This bond between algae and corals is what makes reefs so incredibly productive. Because of this symbiosis, corals have evolved complex skeletal (骨骼的) and tissue structures for collecting sunlight which usually fades rapidly. Through the skeleton, light is pumped and guided into deeper, otherwise shaded areas.
Scientists copied some tricks that corals use. They imaged corals to analyze their skeletal and tissue makeup and then used a 3D bioprinter to build a complicated structure that mimics real corals. The printed corals were made of biomaterials like cellulose (纤维素) and had algae planted in them.
The researchers replicated (复制) coral structure so well that the algae grew very quickly—up to 100 times more densely than they normally grow in the lab. The 3D-printed creation could be used as a medium to grow algae to produce bioenergy and also as a tool for studying the coral-algae symbiosis.
Of course, there are many other ways this technology can be further scaled and improved to create something like artificial corals in the future. So this is just the first step, where they created the animal host, but they are now continuing to further replicate this animal-algal symbiosis and developing model systems. Eventually, it would be nice that this can have direct applications in coral reef restoration.
32. What is the function of the algae inside corals’ tissues
A. To perform photosynthesis. B. To produce energy needed by their host.
C. To pump light into shaded areas. D. To build complex skeletal structures.
33. What do algae get in the symbiotic relationship with corals
A. Stronger tissues. B. An animal host.
C. Certain by-products. D. Biomaterials like cellulose.
34. Scientists use 3D-printed coral structure to ________.
A. make a study of the coral-algae symbiosis
B. strengthen the bond between algae and corals
C. change ocean conditions for corals to survive
D. remove the harmful algae inside the tissues of corals
35. What is the best title of this passage
A. Fantastic Coexistence of Corals and Algae
B. Corals Evolving Symbiosis to Avoid Extinction
C. Coral Reefs: Productive but Endangered Ecosystem
D. 3D-Printed Technology Hopefully Saving Coral Reefs
第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分）
阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白出的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Secret codes (密码) keep messages private. Banks, companies, and government agencies use secret codes in doing business, especially when information is sent by computer.
People have used secret codes for thousands of years. 36 Code breaking never lags (落后) far behind code making. The science of creating and reading coded messages is called cryptography. There are three main types of cryptography.
37 For example, the first letters of “My elephant eats too many eels” spell out the hidden message “Meet me.”
38 You might represent each letter with a number, for example. Let’s number the letters of the alphabet, in order, from 1 to 26. If we substitute a number for each letter, the message “Meet me” would read “13 5 5 20 13 5.”
A code uses symbols to replace words, phrases, or sentences. To read the message of a real code, you must have a code book. 39 For example, “bridge” might stand for “meet” and “out” might stand for “me.” The message “Bridge out” would actually mean “Meet me.” 40 However, it is also hard to keep a code book secret for long. So codes must be changed frequently.
A. It is very hard to break a code without the code book.
B. In any language, some letters are used more than others.
C. Only people who know the keyword can read the message.
D. As long as there have been codes, people have tried to break them.
E. You can hide a message by having the first letters of each word spell it out.
F. With a code book, you might write down words that would stand for other words.
G. Another way to hide a message is to use symbols to stand for specific letters of the alphabet.

An extreme sport like BMX (Bicycle Motocross) may not be the first thing that comes to mind to help overcome a mental health condition. However, that is 41 what enabled Nikita Ducarroz to fight her fears.
As a child, Ducarroz spent every 42 moment on the soccer field. But at 13, the talented athlete began to suffer from 43 anxiety attacks that made it hard for her to leave home. When her mother told her she had to continue playing a sport, Ducarroz found BMX as a way to 44 that rule. Little did she know that BMX would soon 45 every aspect of her life, and become the reason she would push through her fears one step at a time.
The tale began when a BMX video on YouTube inspired her to try the extreme sport. She saved up for a bike. Then she began practicing 46 in her driveway. Soon, her excellent skills brought her enough 47 to ride at the local skate park. With that confidence, Ducarroz was 48 to ride in the competition in 2016, and she has not looked back since.
“The bike made me get out of the house, go to the skate park, and 49 get on a plane,” said Ducarroz. “It 50 me to overcome all my fears.”
The 26-year-old is now one of the world’s best female BMX freestylers. Ducarroz now has her 51 set on the 2024 Paris Olympics. She says, “My goal in Paris is another medal. I can get that done with the training.”
Though she still suffers occasional 52 attacks, Ducarroz now knows how to manage them. To help others with mental health conditions, Ducarroz has started an Instagram page called MindTricks. It is where people discuss their fears 53 .
“MindTricks started because of my own 54 that I was making on Instagram about mental health,” she explained. “And I thought, ‘Why don’t we create a place where others can do the same, a central spot where everyone can read about these stories and also feel 55 to share their own stories ’”
41. A. precisely B. automatically C. roughly D. temporarily
42. A. expectant B. boring C. spare D. urgent
43. A. slight B. mild C. occasional D. severe
44. A. end B. fulfill C. measure D. resist
45. A. took over B. ate away C. put off D. slowed down
46. A. concepts B. tricks C. facilities D. models
47. A. confidence B. muscle C. patience D. fortune
48. A. likely B. hesitant C. ready D. effortless
49. A. slowly B. abruptly C. swiftly D. eventually
50. A. blocked B. pushed C. left D. hooked
51. A. luck B. sight C. standard D. training
52. A. panic B. heart C. delight D. annoyance
53. A. carefully B. privately C. safely D. humbly
54. A. appearance B. medals C. posts D. choices

“An everyday miracle,” the radio commentator began, “is a wonderful or amazing event that occurs.” That attracted my attention. Although I was anxious to hear more, I had to turn off the car radio as I was next in line to pick up fast food.
Because I stopped at the drive-through (免下车餐馆) every morning on my way to work, I knew the elderly clerk, Mary. So it wasn’t a surprise when she stuck her head out of the window while handing me my Diet Coke and began talking. “The traditional holiday is coming. But my family won’t have the traditional holiday dinner this year,” she said sadly. “We canceled it this year. I can’t afford it anymore.”
I tried to say something comforting, but my mind was blank. Embarrassed, I said goodbye and began my forty-five-minute drive to work. On the way, I couldn’t get Mary’s depressed expression out of my mind. Then I thought about the local annual auction that I took part in every year. The activity was yearly held to raise money for the local food bank, a place where poor people could go to get free food.
I hope the food bank could help Mary. But because of the COVID-19, the food bank was struggling this year. I hoped the upcoming auction would raise much money for the food bank. When the day of the auction came, the organizers sent an e-mail to its usual participants, “Guys, take your second-hand things to be auctioned off and come!”
Two days later, I arrives at the auction site, the local park, with my “treasures”. Just seeing each other was exciting. The sun came out. Everyone was laughing and talking. But when I looked around, there were only 22 people. “We won’t make any money today,” I whispered to my longtime friend Sandy. Always optimistic, she quickly reminded me, “Every little bit will help this year.”
注意：
1. 续写词数应为150左右；

One possible version:
Dear Mr Smith,
I’m sorry to inform you that there are two changes to the schedule for English Art Festival on January 6.
First, there will be a very important meeting after lunch in our school, so English Talk Show will be put off by 30 minutes. That is, it starts at 14:00 and ends at 15:00. Second, the place where the English Corner will be held is to be changed from the playground to the School Hall because the weather report says it’s going to rain that afternoon. In order to have the festival go well, we have to make the changes.
Please come and join us on time. We are all expecting you!
Yours,
Li Hua
After we took out the second-hand objects, the auction began. Though there were much less people attending it than usual, everyone was active and dedicated to raising more money. When it came to my “treasure”—a used camera, the final auction price $100 shocked me. What an unbelievable figure. At last, the auction collected over $2000, which meant about 200 families could get help from the food bank during this traditional holiday. “Maybe Mary can have a wonderful holiday dinner.” I thought with relief. The next day I stopped at the drive-through as usual. (85 words)
Upon seeing me, Mary nearly jumped out the window, saying excitedly, “You won’t believe it!” Before I could respond, she eagerly continued to say that she had got enough food from the food bank. Seeing her twinkling eyes, I smiled. Reassured and delighted, I sent her my sincere congratulations and then drove on. Turning on the car radio, I heard the words again, “An everyday miracle is a wonderful or amazing event that occurs.” The experience also raised me up and made me determined to try to bring everyday miracle to others again.

Next week is the start of the summer holiday, and some of you may be going away tomorrow. Those who are still here are able to use the school library over the next two months. At the moment, the library is open during school hours from 8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m., but the hours will be reduced during the summer holiday. It will only be open from 9:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. However, there will be a drop box, so you can return books at any time—day or night. Just be careful when you are putting the books back as some of them are easily broken. The drop box is very big, so you don’t have to worry about it being filled. The library will also be hosting a series of activities over the summer holiday, including a day of artworks exhibition. The reading club will still be held on Wednesdays, but it will start at 10:00 a.m. instead of 2:00 p.m. as normal. We will also have a special guest visiting the library, a former student who is now a published author.

【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了阿尔 侯赛因在经历了战争之后，失去右小腿后，仍然从事自己喜欢的运动，在 2016 年初，他在希腊残疾人全国游泳锦标赛上获得两枚奖牌。
24. 细节理解题。根据第一段中“As the smoke of the bombing cleared Al Hussein was saved but lost his lower right leg forever.”（爆炸产生的烟雾消散后，阿尔·侯赛因得救了，但他永远失去了右小腿。）以及第二段中“After several twists and turns, Al Hussein managed to escape from war-torn Syria to Athens, Greece.”（经过几次曲折，阿尔 侯赛因成功逃离战火纷飞的叙利亚，来到希腊雅典。）可知，因为战火纷飞的叙利亚的爆炸使得侯赛因失去了他的右小腿。故选A。
25. 主旨大意题。根据第二段“After several twists and turns, Al Hussein managed to escape from war-torn Syria to Athens, Greece. With no money left on him, he had to sleep on the streets and look for fruit in trees or eat grass from the park. Luckily, he later found work cleaning toilets at a local cafe. ”（经过几次曲折，阿尔 侯赛因成功逃离战火纷飞的叙利亚，来到希腊雅典。身上没有钱，他不得不睡在街上，在树上寻找水果，或者吃公园里的草。幸运的是，他后来在当地一家咖啡馆找到了清洁厕所的工作。）介绍了侯赛因从叙利亚成功逃脱来到了雅典后的谋生方式，即本段主要叙述了侯赛因在希腊的生存方式。故选D。
26. 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中““When I looked at the address I realised it was the Athens Aquatics Centre,” says Al Hussein, who, at the age of 16, had watched the 2004 Olympics unfold on a small TV in his cosy Syrian home.”（“当我看到这个地址时，我意识到这里是雅典水上运动中心,”16岁的阿尔·侯赛因在叙利亚舒适的家中，通过一台小电视观看了2004年奥运会的比赛。）可知，雅典水上运动中心举办了2004年的奥运会的水上比赛项目。故选B。

It was tough, but it worked for him”（2015 年的大部分时间，他都是早上游泳，然后在咖啡馆工作到深夜。虽然（条件）很艰难，但对他来说很有效）可看出侯赛对于训练场地的艰苦状况并没有屈服，说明他是乐观的。故选C。
C
【导语】这是一篇说明文。这篇文章通过作者的教书经历指出教文学一定要触及心灵，不要只停留于文字表面。
28. 词句猜测题。划线句字面意思是“一本书必须是一把斧子，打开我们内心冰封的大海”，该句运用了明喻和暗喻的写作手法，将书比作斧子，冰冻的大海意指读者封锁的情感。划线句意思是“一本好书应有助于唤醒读者的情感”。故选A。
29. 细节理解题。根据第三段“But they understood. When George shoots Lennie, the tragedy is that we realize it was always going to happen. In my 14 years of teaching in a New York City public middle school, I’ve taught kids with imprisoned parents, abusive parents, irresponsible parents; kids who are parents themselves; kids who are homeless; kids who grew up in violent neighborhoods. They understand, more than I ever will, the novel’s terrible logic-the giving way of dreams to fate.（但是他们理解。当乔治射杀伦尼时，悲剧就发生了，我们意识到这总是会发生的。我在纽约市一所公立中学教书 14 年，教过那些父母被监禁、父母虐待、父母不负责任的孩子、自己为人父母的孩子、无家可归的孩子、在暴力社区长大的孩子。他们比我更了解这部小说的可怕逻辑——让梦想屈服于命运）”可知，学生能够理解《人鼠之间》这部小说是因为他们有相似的生活经历。故选D。
30. 细节理解题。根据第四段中“The daughter of immigrants, with a father in prison, she perhaps felt uncomfortable with her new classmates.（作为移民的女儿，她的父亲在监狱里，她可能觉得和新同学在一起不舒服）”可知，这个女孩离开了那所重点高中，可能是因为她和班上的人合不来。故选C。
31. 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Yet, we cannot enrich the minds of our students by testing them on texts that ignore their hearts. We are teaching them that words do not amaze but confuse. We may succeed in raising test scores, but we will fail to teach them that reading can be transformative and that it belongs to them.（然而，我们不能通过考试来丰富学生的思想，忽视他们的内心。我们正在教导他们，语言并不会使人惊奇，反而会使人困惑。我们也许能成功地提高学生的考试成绩，但我们却无法教会他们阅读可以改变世界，阅读是属于他们的）”且纵观全文，文章开头引用Franz Kafka的名言说明文学作品对唤醒学生情感的作用，接着详细介绍在平时教学生文学阅读过程中如何触及学生心灵。可推知笔者写这篇文章主要是为了倡导文学教学要触动人心。故选B。
D
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了3D打印珊瑚可以减轻珊瑚礁的压力，从而起到保护珊瑚礁的作用。
32. 细节理解题。根据第二段中第三句话“The algae inside corals’ tissues (组织) make use of the light to generate energy,and that energy is then transferred to the coral animal host. （珊瑚的组织内的藻类用光产生能量,之后能量被转移到珊瑚虫宿主身上）”可知，珊瑚组织内的藻类作用是利用光产生珊瑚虫宿主需要的能量。故选B。
33. 细节理解题。根据第二段中最后一句话“That animal host, in return, transfers certain by-products to the algae, so they have a symbiosis going on. （珊瑚虫宿主又反过来将某些副产品转移给藻类，这样它们就形成了共生关系）”可知，藻类在与珊瑚的共生关系中得到某些副产品。故选C。
34. 细节理解题。根据第五段中最后一句话“The 3D-printed creation could be used as a medium to grow algae to produce bioenergy and also as a tool for studying the coral-algae symbiosis.（3D打印出来的珊瑚可用作媒介，来种植产生生物能源的藻类，也可以作为研究珊瑚与藻类共生关系的工具)”可知，科学家利用3D打印的珊瑚结构研究珊瑚与藻类的共生关系。故选A。
35. 主旨大意题。根据第一段的最后一句“But researchers have come up with an invention they think could help the reefs: 3D-printed corals.（但是研究人员想出了他们认为可以帮助珊瑚礁的发明：3D 打印珊瑚）”以及最后一段中第二句话“So this is just the first step, where they created the animal host, but they are now continuing to further replicate this animal-algal symbiosis and developing model systems. Eventually, it would be nice that this can have direct applications in coral reef restoration.（因此这只是他们创造动物宿主的第一步，但他们在继续进一步复制这种动物与藻类共生关系并计划开发模型系统。当然，这项技术能够直接应用于珊瑚礁的修复就更好了）”可知，本篇文章主要介绍了3D打印珊瑚可以减轻珊瑚礁的压力，从而起到保护珊瑚礁的作用。所以“3D打印技术有望拯救珊瑚礁”适合作本文的标题。故选D。
