Ⅰ.阅读理解
A
Choosing the most beautiful ski resort in the Alps is like picking the prettiest diamond. With white peaks and sparkling snow, the following 4 European treasures will spark instant alpine urges.
1. Saas­Fee, Switzerland
Unique selling points：High­mountain setting, in­your­face glaciers.
Saas­Fee hit the right notes as the setting for Wham's! “Last Christmas” music video in 1984. It's a pleasing Swiss village among glaciers and mountains. Fabled 4, 000­meter peaks such as the Dom, the Taschhorn and the Alphubel dot the skyline.
Worth the trip: For you to rub shoulders with real mountaineers, the Britannia
Hutte is a climbers' refuge, just 15 minutes walk from the nearest lift. A simple lunch on its sunny balcony offers grand views.
Britannia Hutte, 3906 Saas Fee, Switzerland; ＋41 27 966 81 00
2. Alpbach, Austria
Unique selling points: Cute houses, the bygone feel.
Alpbach has long known what its best features are and made a point of highlighting them. The medieval village's traditional wooden farmhouses proved to be head­turners for early tourists and planners.
Farming is still very much alive here. It has landed the prize as“Austria's most beautiful village”. And the competition for that one is tough.
Worth the trip: Boglalm is an Alpbach favorite, offering authentic local food such as beef soup and grilled sausage.
Boglalm, 6236 Alpbach, Austria; ＋43 5336 5177
3. Megeve, France
Unique selling points: Mont Blanc views, stylish center, scent of pine.
Megeve muscles into the list by virtue of its location, with close­up views of Mont Blanc, Western Europe's highest peak. The town was one of the first purpose ­built resorts in the Alps. Cruising the wonderfully wooded lower slopes fills your nostrils with the pleasant scent of pine.
Worth the trip: Foodies are spoiled for choice in Megeve, especially in three ­Michelin­starred Flocons de Sel.
Flocons de Sel, 1775 Route du Leutaz, 74120 Megeve, France; ＋33 027 967 25 52
4. Cortina d'Ampezzo, Italy
Unique selling points: a magnet for the beautiful set, an Olympic site.
Just two hours north of Venice, Cortina d'Ampezzo is in a UNESCO World Natural Heritage region. Cortina hosted the Winter Olympics in 1956 and was the setting for a certain James Bond film.
Worth the trip: If it's good enough for Mr. Bond, Miramonti Majestic Grand Hotel might do the job for you. Or take up 007's license to thrill and hit the Olympic bobsled(长橇) run.
Miramonti Majestic Grand Hotel, Via Pezie 103, 32043 Cortina d'Ampezzo, Italy; ＋39 0436 4201

[2022·河北衡水模拟]Before the print was brought to England in 1476, everything was written by hand. The few people who knew how to write were trained in schools set up by the church. Those who made a living by writing for other people were called scribes.
The work of scribes was not easy. Much of it had to be done fast in order to meet the needs of the King, the church and traders. Most of the writing was in Latin, but some of it was in English of the day. No one was quite sure how some English words should be spelled.
One problem was that several letters were written with short vertical stroke that all looked like each other. Among them were the letters “i”“u”“v”“m” and “n”. Thus, five straight lines in a row might stand for “uni”“nui”“uvi”or “mii”. As a result, reading was sometimes difficult, especially when the writing was done in a hurry.
The scribes solved the problem in part, by changing the letter “u” to “o”
when it came before “m”“n” or “v”. This is how “sum” and “cum” became to be written as “some” and “come”．
At some point too, the scribes seemed to have decided that no English word should be ended by “u” or “v”. Thus, in time an “e” was added to such words as “live”“have”“due” and “true”. It was added, but not pronounced.
4．Which of the following is true according to the passage?
A．Everything has been written by hand in English since 1476.
B．More than 500 years ago no one made a living by writing for other people.
C．The church set up schools to train scribes before 1476.
D．Scribes in England worked only for kings and traders.
5．Sometimes people couldn't read easily ________．
A．because there were too many “u” and “v” in some English words
B．because most of the writing was in Latin
C．when the writing was in English
D．when the writing was done hurriedly
6．Why did the scribes change “u” before “m” to “o”？
A．Because the change helped them write faster.
B．Because the change made reading easier.
C．Because “um” and “om” had the same pronunciation.
D．Because “om” was the right order.
7．It is believed that some scribes thought________．
A．it important to add an “e” to every English word
B．the letter “e” at the end of any word shouldn't be pronounced
C．it natural to change the spelling of some Latin words
D．an English word should be ended neither by “u” nor by “v”
Ⅱ.语法填空
The China­Laos Railway, 1.________ connects Kunming in southwest China's Yunnan Province with the Laotian capital, Vientiane, 2.________ (start) operation on Dec 3. 2021. The 1，035­kilometer­long railway is a landmark project and an important part of the Pan­Asian railway network. It will not only benefit the two peoples,
but also 3.________ (significant)improve regional connectivity.
4．________ (locate)southwest of China, Laos is the only landlocked country in Southeast Asia and mainly depends on road, water and air transport for the movement of people and goods. It has long been a dream for the Lao people to see their country change from a land­locked country 5.________ a “land­linked one”， and the opening of the new railway is a big step toward turning 6.________ (they) dream into reality.

Besides, China and Laos were the first 8.________ (sign)an agreement based on the Belt and Road Initiative.

1．答案与解析：B 细节理解题。

根据Alpbach, Austria的“The medieval village's traditional wooden farmhouses proved to be head­turners for early tourists and planners.”可知，中世纪村庄的传统木制农舍吸引了早期游客和规划者的目光。

由此可知，古代欧洲建筑的爱好者会选择去Alpbach度假，故选B项。

根据Megeve, France部分的“Foodies are spoiled for choice in Megeve, especially in three­Michelin­starred Flocons de Sel.”可知，美食家们在Megeve有很多选择，尤其是米其林三星餐厅Flocons de Sel，由此可知，法国的Megeve提供最高档的食物，故选C项。

3．答案与解析：D 文章出处题。

统览全文内容，尤其是文章的第一段和每一部分的小标题可知，文章主要介绍了四个阿尔卑斯的旅游目的地。

【语篇解读】连接中国西南部云南省昆明和老挝首都万象的中老铁路于2021年12
月3日开始运营，这条铁路对两国有着重要的意义。

句意：连接中国西南部云南省昆明和老挝首都万象的中老铁路于2021年12月3日开始运营。

2．答案与解析：started 考查动词的时态。

句意见上一题。

5．答案与解析：to 考查介词。

句意：老挝人民长期以来一直梦想看到自己的国家从一个内陆国家转变为一个“与土地相连的国家”，而新铁路的开通是实现他们的梦想的一大步。

change from...to... 意为“从……变成……”，故填to。

7．答案与解析：better 考查副词比较等级。

句意：它还将使老挝企业更好地融入区域和全球供应链。

此处讲新铁路带来的好处，这个好处是相对于以前情况而讲的，故用副词比较级better作状语，修饰动词短语fit into，故填better。

8．答案与解析：to sign 考查非谓语动词。

句意：此外，中国和老挝是第一个基于“一带一路”倡议签署协议的国家。

the ＋序数词＋(名词)＋动词不定式，sign用动词不定式作后置定语，故填to sign。

9．答案与解析：development 考查词形转换。

句意：因此，中老铁路的开通将有助于加快中老经济走廊的发展，并将进一步推动建设一个有着共同未来的中老共同体。

用抽象名词development作动词speed的宾语，故填development。

10．答案与解析：a 考查冠词。
