It was made in 1734, in Italy, by Antonio Stradivari. Only about 600 of his violins are believed to still exist. They were regarded as the rarest and best instruments in the world.Roman’s Stradivarius was his musical partner for 38 years. Then bad luck struck; the violin was stolen from his office after a concert while he greeted well-wishers. He was shocked and upset by its loss. “Yes, it’s a bit like losing your arm,” he told his daughter, Jill.It took Roman a year to find and buy a new violin as the size and tones (音质) of each were different from his. He had to learn his musical pieces all over again! Roman kept playing into his 90s and taught at Boston University until he died in 2012, aged 101.His daughter says, “We wondered from time to time if the violin would surface, but... Our mother and father taught us to keep moving forward and not think over what life throws at you.”In 2015, the wife of the man who stole the violin wanted to know if it was really a Stradivarius. She had looked after him when he was dying from cancer and now it belonged to her. She took it to master violin maker and dealer Phillip Injeia. He recognized it immediately and contacted the FBI. Jill, who received the call from FBI, said in an interview, “I said, ‘I have to call my sisters. I’ll tell them not to get their hopes up,’ but Phillip Injeian said, ‘You don’t have to do that. This is the violin.’”Jill said they would sell the violin, not to a collector but someone who would play it. She said it would finally be in the hands of another great artist and its amazing voice would be heard in concert halls around the country.4.Why did Roman feel like he had lost an arm after the violin was stolen?A.It cost him a lot of money.B.It had served as a useful arm.C.It had been his musical partner.D.It was created by a famous maker.5.What is the turning point of this story?A.The FBI got in touch with Jill.B.The Stradivarius was found missing.C.Roman Totenberg died in 2012, aged 101.D.The violin was taken to a master violin maker and dealer.6.Why would the family like the violin to be owned by a violinist?A.They intended to become well-known.B.They wanted to sell it at a higher price.C.They hoped to remember Roman Totenberg.D.They wished to make the most of the Stradivarius.7.Which words can best describe Phillip Injeian?A.Expert and confident.B.Creative and careful.C.Learned and proud.D.Strong-willed and friendly.It’s reported that about 20 percent of the Amazon rainforest has disappeared during thespecies native to the Amazon River area, it’s affecting humans worldwide. When it comes to the protection of the Amazon, it’s hard for many people to relate because they don’t feel connected to the area. There are actually a lot of direct connections, no matter how far away we are.A connection that affects everyone on the planet is climate (气候) change. Planting new trees in the forest is basically a way of removing CO2 from the air. Rain forests have a carbon (碳) reduction nearly equal to half of what is in the air. About half of that is in the Amazon. Another case in point is a big snake called the bushmaster that lives in the Amazon. Today, millions of people use medicines made from its venom (毒液) to treat high blood pressure. So they have longer, fuller, and more productive lives.In the 1960s, there was only one highway in the entire Amazon. That’s an area as large as the continental United States with one highway and three million people. Today, there are between 30 million to 40 million people, countless roads, and about 20 percent forests have been cut down. But on the plus side, 50 years ago there were only two national parks and a national forest and a reserve in Brazil. Today, more than 50 percent of the Amazon is under some form of protection.“There’s been a lot of damage done and forest lost, but nothing is gone until it’s gone”, noted National Geographic explorer Dr. Thomas Lovejoy. “We want to see more shared planning between the departments of transportation, energy, agriculture, and the other industries in the area. We think Amazon cities can have higher quality of life and keep people in existing cities so there’s less reason to deforest.”8.Which can replace the underlined word “Deforestation” in paragraph 1?A.Planting more trees.B.Destroying the forests.C.Protecting the species.D.Polluting the rivers.9.What might the partial loss of the Amazon rainforest lead to?A.The increase of extreme weather.B.The removal of CO2.C.More people with high blood pressure.D.The overgrowth of the bushmaster. 10.How does paragraph 3 mainly develop?A.By making comparisons.B.By listing reasons.C.By explaining a definition.D.By making a summary.11.What is Dr. Thomas’ attitude towards the future of the Amazon rainforest?A.Doubtful.B.Worried.C.Positive.D.Uncaring.While screen time is known to affect sleep, new research suggests that interactive (互动的) activities, such as texting friends or playing video games, put off and reduce the time spent asleep to a greater degree than passive (被动的) screen time like watching television, especially for teens.The team studied the daytime screen-based activities of 475 teenagers using daily surveys. They asked the teens how many hours they had spent that day communicating with friends through social media and how many hours they spent playing video games, surfing the internet and watching television or videos. Finally, the researchers asked if they had joined in any of these activities in the hour before bed.Next, the team measured their sleep time for one week. The researchers found that the teens spent an average of two hours per day communicating with friends via social media, about 1.3 hours playing video games, less than an hour surfing the internet and about 1.7 hours watching television or videos. For every hour throughout the day that they used screens to communicate with friends, they fell asleep about 11 minutes later averagely. For every hour to play video games, they fell asleep about 9 minutes later. Those who talked, texted orplayed games in the hour before bed lost the most sleep: about 30 minutes later.Interestingly, David, lead author of the study, said the team found no obvious relations between passive screen-based activities and sleep. “It could be that passive activities are less mentally exciting than interactive activities,” said Anne, co-author of the study. “It’s a tricky situation,” she said. “These screen tools are really important to everyone nowadays, so it’s hard to put a limit on them, but if you’re really looking out for a teenager’s health and well-being, you might consider limiting the more interactive activities, especially in the hour before bed.”12.Which of the following belongs to interactive screen activities?A.Seeing movies.B.Watching videos.C.Texting friends.D.Surfing the internet.13.Who might lose the most sleep according to the text?A.Lucy who watched a three-hour movie before going to bed.B.Jack who had a 30-minute video chat with his brother before bed.C.Sam who played computer games for two hours throughout the day.D.Amy who chatted with her friends on WeChat for one hour in the morning. 14.What does the underlined word “tricky” mean in paragraph 4?A.Frightening.B.Awkward.C.Hopeless.D.Encouraging. 15.What can be a suitable title for the text?A.Screen time activities cut down our sleep hoursB.Interactive screen use reduces sleep time in teenagersC.Passive screen use is better than interactive screen useD.Parents should prevent children from using social mediaReading is a healthy habit that everyone should develop from childhood because of theThe following will discuss the effects of not reading books, so you can basically consider and judge where you are and understand how reading can be beneficial.17 People who don’t read and don’t like to read find it harder to learn than people who actually read. For example, most students who fail to develop a reading habit find it difficult to get through school. This then leads to students dropping out, which is bad for society. Reading is a habit that strengthens the brain and develops your inborn love ofwanting to learn more. Therefore, not being addicted to books closes you off from this.Narrow mindedness. Reading a variety of books broadens the readers’ mind. Most people who don’t read have a certain narrow mindedness to them that can easily be noticed.18 When you don’t read, you’re forced to take everything at face value and then create and shape your views in this way.Low brain power. One advantage of reading is its ability to improve brain function. Reading can help people become better thinkers and use brains more effectively. People who don’t read usually have low brain power because they don’t exercise the brain as much as readers do. 19Poor imagination. Reading books allows you to tap into your imaginative power. 20 This is important because it expands (拓展) your thought process as well as the ability to understand. People who don’t read books usually are short of the inspiration necessary to create imagination. This makes it difficult to be creative.A.Learning difficulty.B.The reason for this is simple.C.Such exercise strengthens the brain.D.Inability to fully understand the world.E.It then makes you picture what you read.F.It is developed slowly just as any habit would.G.The ability to read is important in today’s world.二、完形填空As Hallee gets to the finish line of the 800-metre run for kids, the crowd is cheeringWhen the twins were five, Jada decided that she wanted to be a(n) 27 .

Through the media company he founded, he makes advertising and promotional videos, including for Tsinghua University.For Di, becoming a director is “an adventure based on interest”. Majoring in journalism, he got into directing by chance. “In 2013, I came up with an idea for Tsinghua’s admissions video but couldn’tfind a director,” Di said. “So I decided to be the director myself! I ended up really enjoying the process of being creative and working with a team. That was when I knew I wanted to be a director.”While many people think that directors are experts at art, Di found that directors are, in fact, experts at management. “Only one-third of my time is spent on set. The rest of the time, I’m doing lots of planning with my customers and colleagues,” he said. This planning process includes working out the video’s theme with the clie nt, creating a script, bringing together the visuals and text content, and also managing logistics like where to park the cars and how to bring electricity to the set.Despite the pressure, Di gets great joy from making an impact through his works. In 2019, he made a film for Tsinghua, which tells the story of a group of first-generation college students. It was viewed more than 15 million times on social media and became a hot top 20 trending topic on Sina Weibo. Being a first-generation college student himself, Di felt very passionate about the videos goal of inspiring students to use their education to make a better life for their families. One month before the national college entrance exam in 2020, Di released a feature film encouraging high school students to keep working hard after the exam was pushed back by one month.“I want to uncover and share China’s stories with the world, true stories of Chinese youth fighting for their dreams,” said Di.4.

D.Encourage students to go to famous universities.Most of us have heard of the 3Rs: reduce, reuse and recycle. It is the core principle of a sustainable (可持续的) life, but few of us can apply it in our own lives. Now, there’s a “lab” you can explore and discover a way toward living sustainably.3R Lab is located in Xuhui district, Shanghai. It offers exhibitions, activities and goods that showcase the 3R principle. The key to a sustainable life, according to Vincent T. M. Fong, the 32-year-old from Hong Kong who created the lab, is to make it a long-term promise. “A sustain able life should be sustainable itself in the first place. You can’t lead a sustainable life on a whim. Small and comfortable changes are exactly what you need,” Fong said.The lab regularly hosts ugly fruit markets, offering these strange fruits which are often thrown away by traditional markets and consumers at a quite attractive price. “They’re thrown away simply because of their appearance. Buying fruit regardless of how they look reduces food waste significantly in our daily life,” Fong commented.A wa ter tank with two types of straws is another equipment in the lab. “One type is made from normal plastics widely used in our daily life while the other is from PHA, a new replacement for plastics, and the water is sourced from the Suzhou River,” explained Ni Li, an employee of the lab. Visitors can see how the PHA straws degrade (降解) into a thin layer in just one month, while the others remain unchanged.“Leading a sustainable life does not necessarily mean sacrifice,” said Fong.

The year 2023 marked the 20th anniversary of China’s first manned space mission, with Yang Liwei becoming the first Chinese astronaut to go to space. Since then, another 17 astronauts have reached for the stars. The selection of the fourth generation of astronauts began in 2022 and is now in full swing. Experts revealed how difficult the training is before astronauts can explore the space.The human body is not designed for space life. Astronauts are faced with multiple challenges on a space mission. The changes in gravity can have an impact on their bodies. The feeling of isolation and closed living in a small spacecraft for months can damage their mental health. Emergencies during missions challenge their knowledge and ability to solve problems under huge pressure. So it’s no wonder that astronauts have to meet extremely high standards and go through a tough training program.To make sure that Chinese astronauts complete their missions and return to Earth safely, “Eight types, including over 200 subjects of training, were set,” Huang Weifen, chief designer of the astronaut system for China’s manned space project, told CCTV News. Apart from physical fitness training, it also includes basic scientific theories, psychological health, and mock (模拟的) missions. Among the training subjects, the most tiring one is underwater training. This training is designed for astronauts to adapt to the microgravity environment in space. According to Huang, astronauts stay underwater in suits weighing over 100 kilograms for six hours at a time. Water resistance (阻力) and the heavy suit make every move exhausting. “Nie Haisheng once repor ted a two-kilogram loss in weight after one underwatei training exercise,” said Huang, Each astronaut receives training for at least three and a half years before having the chance to go to space.Who can become astronauts? The first and second generations of Chinese astronauts were selected only from the Chinese People’s Liberation Army Air Force. However, since 2018, when the third-generation selection process began, ordinary people have been invited to apply. They can fly with pilot astronauts to space.12. What does Paragraph 2 mainly talk about?A.High standards astronauts need to meet. B.Health problems caused by microgravity.C.Requirements of the tough astronaut training. D.Different challenges astronauts face in space.13. Which is the most physically demanding for its participants according to the article?A.Mock mission. B.Underwater training.C.Physical fitness training. D.Scientific theory learning.14. Why did Huang mention Nie Haishertg’s two-kilogram weight loss?A.To stress how challenging the training is. B.To describe Nie’s personal achievements.C.To introduce the weight limit for astronauts. D.To explain the importance of proper training.15. What is the most suitable title for the passage?A.The Qualities of Being an Astronaut B.Astronauts Faced with MultipleChallengesC.Preparing the Mind and Body for Space D.The 20th Anniversary of China’s SpaceMissionMinor Cold is the 23rd solar term of the 24 traditional Chinese solar terms. For most areas of China, it marks the start of the coldest days of the year. Still, bitter cold can’t prevent people from enjoying their lives. 16Enjoy Mutton hot pot and baked sweet potato.Mutton hot pot, and baked sweet potato are two recommended foods for Minor Cold. 17 It can help prevent cold from harming their organs. The yang energy in the three types of food is strengthened through their method of cooking: boiling, stir frying and baking.Eat Laba porridge.Another important traditional food for Minor Cold is Laba porridge. 18 Local people in Beijing often cook Laba porridge on the night of the seventh day of the twelfth lunar month. After one night’s slow simmering, all the ingredients melt into the porridge in the morning of the eighth day, becoming a warm delicacy to enjoy on cold days.19People in Nanjing used to take Minor Cold quite seriously, and they still keep a custom of eating vegetable rice to celebrate this solar term. The rice is steamed with aijiaohuang, sausage and salted duck that are all the specialties in Nanjing.Make Chinese traditional herbal medicine.20 Many people need them to prepare new medicines, which will be consumed before the Lunar New Year.“Nothing will ever be the same again”, Ally said to herself.Ally’s father died last summer.

第一部分阅读理解(共两节,满分40分)第一节 (共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分)AIt feels like every time my mother and I start to have a conversation, it turns into an argument. We talk about something as simple as dinner plans and suddenly, my mother will push the conversation into World War 3. She’ll talk about my lack of bright future because I don’t plan to be a doctor. Andmuch to her disappointment, I don’t want to do any job related to science, either. In fact, when I was pushed to say that I planned to major(主修) in English and communications, she nearly had a heart attack.“Why can’t you be like my co-worker’s son?” she bemoans (哀叹) all the time. Her coworker’s son received a four-year scholarship and is now earning 70,000 dollars a year as an engineer. I don’t know what to answer except that I simply can’t be like Mr. Perfect as I’ve called the unnamed co-worker’s son. I can’t be like him. I am the type of the person who loved to help out in the community, write until the sun goes down, and most of all, wants to achieve a career because I love it, not because of a fame or salary.I understand why my mother is worried about my future major. I’ve seen my mother struggle to raise me on her small salary and work long hours. She leaves the house around 6:30 am and usually comes home around 5 pm or even 6pm. However, I want her to know that by becoming a doctor, it doesn’t mean I’ll be successful. I’d rather follow my dreams and create my own future.1. Which of the following topics do the writer and his mother often talk about?A. the writer’s studiesB. the writer’s future jobC. dinner plansD. wars around the world2. We can infer from Paragraph 1 that the writer’s mother _____.A. doesn’t want the writer to major Engl ishB. doesn’t think the writer should be a doctorC. gets along very well with the writerD. doesn’t think working in the scientific field is a good idea3. Which of the following statements is probably TRUE about the writer?A. He wants to be li ke his mother’s co-worker’s son.B. He wants to find a job in his community in the future.C. He doesn’t think his mother’s co-worker’s son is perfect.D. He wants to do something he really likes in the future.BSpecialists say that it is not easy to get used to life in a new culture. “Culture shock” is the term these specialists use when talking about the feelings that people have in a new environment. There are three stages of culture shock, say the specialists. In the first stage, the newcomers like their newenvironment. Then, when the fresh experience dies, they begin to hate the city, the country, the people, and everything else. In the last stage, the newcomers begin to adjust to (适应) their surroundings and, as a result, enjoy their life more.There are some obvious factors in culture shock. The weather may be unpleasant. The customs may be different. The public service systems—the telephone, post office, or transportation—may be difficult to work out. The simplest things seem to be big problems. The language may be difficult.Who feels culture shock? Everyone does in this way or that. But culture shock surprises most people. Very often the people having the worst culture shock are those who never had any difficulties in their home countries and were successful in their community. Coming to a new country, these people find they do not have the same established positions. They find themselves without a role, almost without an identity. They have to build a new self-image.Culture shock gives rise to a feeling of disorientation. This feeling may be homesickness. When homesick(想家), people feel like staying inside all the time. They want to protect themselves from the strange environment, and create an escape inside their room for a sense of security. This escape doessolve the problem of culture shock for the short term, but it does nothing to make the person familiar with the culture. Getting to know the new environment and gaining experience—these are the long-term solutions to the problem of culture shock.4. According to the passage, factors that give rise to culture shock include all of the followingexcept _____.A. language communicationB. weather conditions and customsC. public service systemsD. homesickness5.According to the passage, the more successful you are at home, __________.A, the fewer difficulties you may have abroadB. the more difficulties you may have abroadC. the more money you will earn abroadD. the less homesick you will feel abroad6. The underlined word in the last paragraph mostly probably means ________.A. being homesickB. being lostC. protecting oneselfD. gaining experience7. What is the main idea of the last paragraph?A. Escape unfamiliar environmentB. The feeling of homesickness.C. Homesickness can solve the problem of culture shock.D. The best way to overcome culture shock: get familiar withthe new culture.CTo master a language one must be able to speak and understand the spoken language as well as to read and write.Lenin and his wife Krupskaya translated a long English book into Russian.But when they went to England in 1980, English people couldn’t understand what was said to them.These days more foreigners are coming to China and more and more Chinese are going out to foreign countries to work or study.So the spoken language is becoming more and more important.Speaking, of course, can’t go without listening.If you want to pronounce a word correctly, first you must hear it correctly.The sounds of the Chinese and English language are not exactly the same.If you don’t listen carefully, you’ll find it difficult or even impossible to understand the native speakers.Well, what about writing? Like speaking, it’s to exchange ideas.People generally use shorter words and shorter sentences in their writing.The important thing is to make your idea in your head and then to write it in clear lively language.Chinese students read far too slowly.If you read fast, you understand better.If you read too slowly, by the time you have reached the end of a page you have forgotten what the beginning is about.When you meet with new words, don’t look them up in the dictionary.Guess the meaning from the context(上下文).Youmay not guess quite correctly the first time, but as new words come up again and again in different contexts, their meaning will become clearer and clearer.If you look up every word, you’ll never finish a book.Students of a foreign language need a particular knowledge, the knowledge of the life, history and geography of the people w hose language they’re studying.They should study these subjects in the foreign language, not only in translation.In this way one can kill two birds with one stone: learn a foreign language and get some knowledge of the foreign country at the same time.8.In the first paragraph the writer tells us .A.how to speak EnglishB.how to read and writeC.why spoken English is importantD.why English people couldn’t understand Lenin9.In his last point the writer advises us .A.to kill two birds with one stoneB.to learn two languages at a timeC.to study all the subjects in a foreign languageD.to get some knowledge of the foreign country whose language you are studying.10.In the fourth paragraph the writer give some advice on .A.how to read fasterB.how to guess the meaning from the contextC.how to look up new words in the dictionaryD.how to grasp the general meaning of a passage11.“To kill two birds with one stone” means.A.to get some particular knowledge B.to get more than what one paysC.the stone is too big D.the birds are blind enoughDThe temperature of the sun is over 5,000 degrees Fahrenheit at the surface, but it rises to perhaps more than 16 million degrees at the center. The sun is so much hotter than the earth that matter can exist only as a gas, except at the core(核心). In the core of the sun, the pressures are so great against the gases that, despite the high temperature, there may be a small solid core. However, no one really knows, since the center of the sun can never be directly observed.Solar astronomers do know that the sun is divided into five layers or zones. Starting at the outside and going down into the sun, the zones are the corona, chromosphere, photosphere, convection zone and finally the core. The first three zones are regarded as the sun’s atmosphere. But since the sun has no solid surface, it is hard to tell where the atmosphere ends and the main body of the sun begins.The sun’s outermost layer begins about 10,000 miles above the visible surface and goes outward for millions of miles. This is the only part of the sun that can be seen during an eclipse (日食) such as the one in February 1979. At any other time, the corona can be seen only when special instruments are used on cameras and telescopes to shut out the glare(刺眼的强光)of the sun’s rays.The corona is a brilliant, pearly white, filmy light, about as bright as the full moon. Its beautiful rays are a sensationalsight during an eclipse. The corona’s ra ys flash out in abrilliant fan that has wispy spikelike (一束束穗状) rays nearthe sun’s north and south poles. The corona is thickest at thesun’s equator.The corona rays are made up of gases streaming outward at tremendous speeds and reaching a temperature of more than 2million degrees Fahrenheit. The rays of gas thin out as theyreach the space around the planets. By the time the sun’scorona rays reach the earth, they are weak and invisible.12. Matter on the sun can exist only in the form of gas becauseof the sun’s ______.A. sizeB. ageC. locationD. temperature13. With what topic is the second paragraph mainly concerned?A. How the sun evolved.B. Thestructure of the sun.C. Why scientists study the sun.D. Thedistance of the sun from the planets.14. All of the following are parts of the sun’ s atmosphereEXCEPT the _______.A. coronaB. chromosphereC. photosphereD. core15. The paragraph following the passage most likely discusses which of the following?A. The remaining layers of the sun.B. The evolution of the sun to its present form.C. The eclipse of February 1979.D. Scientists will cost more money on researching the corona.其次节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)依据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

But early horses weren’t tame (驯服的) enough to perform these kinds of tasks. Scientists think the first interactions humans had with horses were far different from those today.Thousands of years ago, people killed the wild horses t hat lived around them for food. Over time, people began to catch the anim als and raise them. This was the first step in domestication.As people began to tame and ride horses, they chose to keep those animals that had more desirable characteristics. For example, people may have chosen to keep horses that had a gentle personality so they could be ridden more easily. People who used horses to pull heavy loads would have chosen to keep stronger animals. Characteristics like strength are partly controlled by the animals’genes. So as the domesticated horses reproduced, they passed the characteristics on to their young. Each new generation of houses would show more of these chosen characteristics.Modern day horse breeds come in a wide variety of shapes and sizes. This variety didn’t exist in the horse population before domestication. The Shetland horse is one of the smallest breeds—typically reaching only one meter tall. With short, strong legs, the animals were bred to pull coal out of mine shafts (矿井) with low ceilings. Huge horses like the Clydesdale came on the scene around 1700. People bred these heavy, tall horses to pull large vehicles used for carrying heavy loads.The domestication of horses has had great effects on societies. For example, horses were important tools in the advancement of modern agriculture. Using them to pull ploughs and carry heavy loads allowed people to farm more efficiently. Before they were able to ride horses, humans had to cross the landon foot. Riding horses allowed people to travel far greater distance in much less time.

But it seems that four out of five young people now get on with their parents, which is the opposite of the popularly held image(印象)of unhappy teenagers locked in theirroom after endless family quarrels.An important new study into teenage attitudes surprisingly shows that their family life is more harmonious than it has ever been in the past. “We were surprised by just how positive today’s young people seem to be abou t their families,”said one member of the research team. “They’re expected to be rebellious(叛逆的) and selfish but actually they have other things on their minds”they want a car and material goods, and they worry about whether school is serving them well. There’s more negotiation(商议) and discussion between parents and children, and children expect to take part in the family decision-making process. They don’t want to rock the boat.”So it seems that this generation of parents is much more likely than parents of 30 years ago to treat their children as friends. “My parents are happy to discuss things with me and willing to listen to me,”says 17-years-old Daniel Lazall . “I always tell them when I’m going out clubbing. As long as they know what I’m doing, they’re fine with it.”Susan Come, who is now 21, agrees.”Looking back on the last 10 years, there was a lot of what you could call negotiation. For example, as long as I’d done all my homework, I could go out on a Saturday night. But I think my grandparents were a lot stricter with my parents than that.”Maybe this positive view of family life should not be unexpected. It is possible that the idea of teenagers rebellion is not rooted in real facts. A researcher comments, “Our surprise that teenagers say they get along well with theirparents comes because of a brief period in our social history when teenagers were regarded as different beings. But that idea of rebelling and breaking away from their parents really only happened during that one time in the 1960s when everyone rebelled. The normal situation throughout history has been a smooth change from helping out with the family business to taking it over.”27. What is the popular images of teenagers today?A.
