In my childhood, whenever I was being unreasonable, or questioning whatever direction my mother was giving, she would say “I’m the momma and you’re the baby.” End of discussion. Until one day she asked me to do something for her and I said, “No. You’re the momma; I’m the baby.” It gave her a good laugh.
But, at 31, I’m realizing the dynamic might be shifting. She’s the momma; I’m the baby. But I’m also something else now. More will be asked of me to take care of her. My mother is getting older.
The realization hit me during a recent visit home. In my memory, our house wasn’t spotless, but I’d call it tidy. Weekends were for cleaning. Yet during this visit I was taken aback by piles upon piles of mail and papers and junk. A fridge full of spoiled food. A mountain of clothes begging to be located. Was it always this way? When did she become a hoarder (囤积者)? A symptom of aging?
But my mother would like you to know something: She is not a hoarder. She spoke frankly with more self awareness than I expected about life and time and happiness. “The time that I have to go through those things would be my weekends. Do I want to spend my Saturday afternoon going through all the junk? Or do I want to go hang out with my friends? I think the latter. I don’t want to spend one minute of my free time doing anything that doesn’t bring me joy,” she says.
It’s not that my mother has no worries about aging, but she came to terms with it long before. “Trey, you could spend so much time worrying about things that aren’t perfect. Then time slips by, and they’re never going to be,” she continues. “I think happiness is a moment-to-moment, day-to-day kind of thing. It’s not something you sustain. I still think I’m hot—that might be in my head, but so that.”
4. What was the author’s tone in his response to Mom in paragraph 1?
A. Nervous B. Pleased. C. Unwilling. D. Sympathetic.
5. What made the author think Mom was a hoarder at first?
A. Her refusal to donate old stuff. B. The mess in Mom’s house.
C. Her preference for an economical life. D. The decline of Mom’s health.
6. Why didn’t Mom tidy the house on weekends?
A. She had plans with her friends. B. She was too old to do it on her own.
C. She desired a pleasant time for herself. D. She had trouble sorting out the junk.
7. Which of the following can best describe Mom’s current life principle?
A. Never say die. B. Live in the present.
C. Tomorrow is another day. D. Better late than never.
C
Exams can be very stressful and it’s not surprising that people who feel anxious about them tend to perform worse compared to those who don’t experience such anxiety. What is surprising, according to the research published in Psychological Science by Maria Theobald at the Leibniz Institute and her colleagues, is that it is not the pressure of the exam hall that leads to the problem; it is the pressure of revision.
Dr. Theobald launched a study which involved 309 German medical students who used a digital-learning platform to prepare for their final state exam. To assess their levels of anxiety, the students were asked to rate them on a five-point scale for 40 days leading up to the exam, as well as on the day of the exam and the mock exam (模拟考) taken 40 days prior.
What Dr. Theobald found was not what she expected. Anxiety on the day of the test did not predict exam performance at all. What did predict it was the level of knowledge a student displayed in the mock exam and the earlier digital-learning activities. High levels of anxiety during the weeks before the exam took place actually hampered students, leaving them with less material to recall during the exam itself.
And this is a positive discovery, for it suggests a change of approach to revision by the anxious might help improve their results. Dr. Theobald notes that test-anxiety is at its worst when students have low expectations of success and meanwhile know that passing the exam is extremely important. To reduce this anxiety, she proposes a two-fold strategy for students to consider as they revise. First, they can raise their belief in their own abilities by reminding themselves of just how much they know. Second, they can attach less importance to the test by reminding themselves that, while it is important, it is not a life-or-death situation. It really isn’t. Really…
8. What is a cause of poor exam performance according to the research?
A. Pressure from peers. B. Inexperience in tests.
C. Atmosphere in exam halls. D. Tension during revision.
9. How did Dr. Theobald conduct the research?
A. By grading participants’ levels of knowledge.
B. By comparing participants’ approaches to revision.
C. By analyzing participants’ anxiety levels and exam performance.
D. By collecting participants’ previous data from a learning platform.
10. What does the underlined word “hampered” in paragraph 3 mean?
A. Restricted. B. Assisted. C. Misled. D. Motivated.
11. What strategy does Dr. Theobald recommend to reduce test anxiety?
A. Setting ambitious goals. B. Boosting self-confidence.
C. Ignoring the significance of a test. D. Lowering the expectations of success.
D
New technological tools are enabling a global community of biologists and amateur scientists to explore the natural world of sound in richer detail and at greater range than ever before. Just as microscopes helped humans observe things not visible to the naked eye, widely used microphones and machine learning models allow us to listen to sounds we cannot otherwise hear.
Billions of dollars are pouring into so-called generative artificial intelligence, such as OpenAI’s ChatGPT, with scores of new companies being launched to commercialize these foundation models. But in one sense, these models are mostly used to rearrange existing human knowledge in new combinations rather than to generate anything really new. What may have a bigger scientific impact is “additive AI”, using machine learning to explore specific, newly created data sets and extend the frontiers of human knowledge. When it comes to sonic (声音的) data, there is an incredible potential for cross-species communication through the use of machines that can translate and copy animal sounds exactly, effectively creating a “Google Translate for the zoo”.
This sonic revolution has been promoted by advances in both hardware and software. Cheap, durable, long-lasting microphones and sensors can be attached to trees in the Amazon, rocks in the Arctic or to dolphins’ backs, enabling real-time monitoring. That stream of sonic data is then processed by “additive AI”. However, this data only makes sense when combined with human observations about natural behaviors gained from painstaking fieldwork by biologists or crowdsourced analysis from amateurs.
Scientists have discovered fascinating information about the sonic universe, which has already led to practical and commercial outcomes. For example, cryptographers (密码专家) have been studying the buzzes, clicks, creaks and squeaks of whales to understand whether their “bionic Morse code” could be copied to encrypt (加密) communications. However, this is just the beginning of our exploration of sound, and there is no telling what other discoveries await us.
12. Why does the author mention microscopes in paragraph 1?
A. To highlight the popularity of microscopes.
B. To illustrate the role of sound exploration tools.
C. To show the development of scientific instruments.
D. To stress the importance of observing beyond senses.
13. How may “additive AI” assist in sound exploration?
A. It may make sense of natural behaviors independently.
B. It may guarantee the real-time monitoring of sonic data.
C. It may help create translation equipment for animal sounds.
D. It may help spread the existing human knowledge of sound.
14. What’s the author’s attitude towards sound exploration?
A. Optimistic. B. Reserved. C. Critical. D. Indifferent
15. What can be the best title for the passage?
A. Sonic Revolution: Discovering New Sounds
B. Sonic Translation: Inter-species Communication
C. Additive AI: Extending the Frontiers of Knowledge
D. Sonic Exploration with AI: Listening to the Unheard

When I was a kid, I was always eager to know what was inside the colorful boxes under the Christmas tree. But when that curiosity was satisfied beforehand, fun would be absent.
One Christmas Eve, my sister Tina and I decided to peek at our presents before our mom got home. Since Tina was older, and that put her in charge, she opened the first present while I was ordered to stand guard at the big picture window in our front room. I was to report any suspicious activity or person, namely our mother.
I was so excited that I could barely stand still. I couldn’t keep my eyes on the window very long, either. My head moved from the window to Tina and back to the window again. I felt like I was watching a Ping-Pong match.
“All right!” Tina shouted. She pulled out an empty jewelry box. “You know what that means, don’t you?”
I jumped up and down. “Yeah, it’s my turn!”
“No.” she said. “It means that there must be some jewelry under here.” I watched my sister search through the presents under the tree trying to find one she thought was small enough to be a necklace or earrings
“Hey, that’s not fair!” I protested, stomping my foot
“Are you watching for mom?” was all that she said. I couldn’t do anything except stand guard as she opened present after present. Finally, when she had finished wrapping her last present back up, we traded places.
My heart hammered so hard that it felt like my chest was moving in and out. Tina reminded me to be careful so I wouldn’t tear the wrapping paper.
After unwrapping a few presents, I found it faster to open one end of a present and peek inside. “Cool! Mom and Dad got me headphones (耳机) for my stereo!” I exclaimed as I pulled them out of the box.
注意：1. 续写词数应为150左右;
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
I was about to put them on when Tina shouted that Mom was coming.

The next morning, Tina and I pretended to open our presents as if nothing had happened.

In my childhood, whenever I was being unreasonable, or questioning whatever direction my mother was giving, she would say “I’m the momma and you’re the baby.” End of discussion. Until one day she asked me to do something for her and I said, “No. You’re the momma; I’m the baby.” It gave her a good laugh.
But, at 31, I’m realizing the dynamic might be shifting. She’s the momma; I’m the baby. But I’m also something else now. More will be asked of me to take care of her. My mother is getting older.
The realization hit me during a recent visit home. In my memory, our house wasn’t spotless, but I’d call it tidy. Weekends were for cleaning. Yet during this visit I was taken aback by piles upon piles of mail and papers and junk. A fridge full of spoiled food. A mountain of clothes begging to be located. Was it always this way? When did she become a hoarder (囤积者)? A symptom of aging?
But my mother would like you to know something: She is not a hoarder. She spoke frankly with more self awareness than I expected about life and time and happiness. “The time that I have to go through those things would be my weekends. Do I want to spend my Saturday afternoon going through all the junk? Or do I want to go hang out with my friends? I think the latter. I don’t want to spend one minute of my free time doing anything that doesn’t bring me joy,” she says.
It’s not that my mother has no worries about aging, but she came to terms with it long before. “Trey, you could spend so much time worrying about things that aren’t perfect. Then time slips by, and they’re never going to be,” she continues. “I think happiness is a moment-to-moment, day-to-day kind of thing. It’s not something you sustain. I still think I’m hot—that might be in my head, but so that.”
4. What was the author’s tone in his response to Mom in paragraph 1?
A. Nervous B. Pleased. C. Unwilling. D. Sympathetic.
5 What made the author think Mom was a hoarder at first?
A. Her refusal to donate old stuff. B. The mess in Mom’s house.
C. Her preference for an economical life. D. The decline of Mom’s health.
6. Why didn’t Mom tidy the house on weekends?
A. She had plans with her friends. B. She was too old to do it on her own.
C. She desired a pleasant time for herself. D. She had trouble sorting out the junk.
7. Which of the following can best describe Mom’s current life principle?
A. Never say die. B. Live in the present.
C. Tomorrow is another day. D. Better late than never.
【答案】4. C 5. B 6. C 7. B

【4题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段的“In my childhood, whenever I was being unreasonable, or questioning whatever direction my mother was giving, she would say “I’m the momma and you’re the baby.” End of discussion.(在我的童年时代，每当我无理取闹，或质疑母亲的指示时，她都会说“我是妈妈，你是孩子。”讨论到此结束)”可知，作者童年无礼取闹或质疑妈妈的指示时，她的妈妈都不愿和她多说，总是用“我是妈妈，你是孩子”来结束对话。由此推知，当某一天妈妈要求作者做事时，作者回答“No. You’re the momma; I’m the baby.”的语气应是不乐意的。故选C。
【5题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段的“Yet during this visit I was taken aback by piles upon piles of mail and papers and junk. A fridge full of spoiled food. A mountain of clothes begging to be located. Was it always this way? When did she become a hoarder (囤积者)? A symptom of aging?(然而，在这次访问中，我被成堆的邮件、文件和垃圾吓了一跳。装满变质食物的冰箱。堆积如山的衣服乞求被放回适当的位置。总是这样吗？她什么时候变成囤积者的？还是衰老的症状？)”可知，作者一开始认为妈妈是囤积者是因为屋里杂乱无章。故选B。
【6题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段的““The time that I have to go through those things would be my weekends. Do I want to spend my Saturday afternoon going through all the junk? Or do I want to go hang out with my friends? I think the latter. I don’t want to spend one minute of my free time doing anything that doesn’t bring me joy,” she says.(“我处理这些事情的时间是在周末。我想把周六下午的时间都花在翻垃圾上吗？还是我想和朋友出去玩？我认为是后者。我不想把一分钟的空闲时间花在不能给我带来快乐的事情上，”她说)”可知，作者的母亲不在周末打扫屋子是因为她渴望愉快的时光。故选C。
【7题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段的““Trey, you could spend so much time worrying about things that aren’t perfect. Then time slips by, and they’re never going to be,” she continues. “I think happiness is a moment-to-moment, day-to-day kind of thing. It’s not something you sustain. I still think I’m hot—that might be in my head, but so that.”(“特雷，你可能会花很多时间担心那些不完美的事情。然后时光飞逝，它们将不复存在，”她继续说道。“我认为幸福是每时每刻、日复一日的事情。这不是你能承受的。我仍然觉得自己很活跃——这可能是我的想法，但仅此而已。”)”可知，作者的母亲现在的生活原则是：活在当下。故选B。
C
Exams can be very stressful and it’s not surprising that people who feel anxious about them tend to perform worse compared to those who don’t experience such anxiety. What is surprising, according to the research published in Psychological Science by Maria Theobald at the Leibniz Institute and her colleagues, is that it is not the pressure of the exam hall that leads to the problem; it is the pressure of revision.
Dr. Theobald launched a study which involved 309 German medical students who used a digital-learning platform to prepare for their final state exam. To assess their levels of anxiety, the students were asked to rate them on a five-point scale for 40 days leading up to the exam, as well as on the day of the exam and the mock exam (模拟考) taken 40 days prior.
What Dr. Theobald found was not what she expected. Anxiety on the day of the test did not predict exam performance at all. What did predict it was the level of knowledge a student displayed in the mock exam and the earlier digital-learning activities. High levels of anxiety during the weeks before the exam took place actually hampered students, leaving them with less material to recall during the exam itself.
And this is a positive discovery, for it suggests a change of approach to revision by the anxious might help improve their results. Dr. Theobald notes that test-anxiety is at its worst when students have low expectations of success and meanwhile know that passing the exam is extremely important. To reduce this anxiety, she proposes a two-fold strategy for students to consider as they revise. First, they can raise their belief in their own abilities by reminding themselves of just how much they know. Second, they can attach less importance to the test by reminding themselves that, while it is important, it is not a life-or-death situation. It really isn’t. Really…
8. What is a cause of poor exam performance according to the research?
A. Pressure from peers. B. Inexperience in tests.
C. Atmosphere in exam halls. D. Tension during revision.
9. How did Dr. Theobald conduct the research?
A. By grading participants’ levels of knowledge.
B. By comparing participants’ approaches to revision.
C. By analyzing participants’ anxiety levels and exam performance.
D. By collecting participants’ previous data from a learning platform.
10. What does the underlined word “hampered” in paragraph 3 mean?
A. Restricted. B. Assisted. C. Misled. D. Motivated.
11. What strategy does Dr. Theobald recommend to reduce test anxiety?
A. Setting ambitious goals. B. Boosting self-confidence.
C. Ignoring the significance of a test. D. Lowering the expectations of success.
【答案】8 D 9. C 10. A 11. B
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍一项新的研究发现复习期间的焦虑是导致考试表现不佳的主要原因，介绍了研究过程，以及减少这种焦虑的方法。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段的“What is surprising, according to the research published in Psychological Science by Maria Theobald at the Leibniz Institute and her colleagues, is that it is not the pressure of the exam hall that leads to the problem; it is the pressure of revision.(根据莱布尼茨研究所的Maria Theobald和她的同事发表在《心理科学》上的研究，令人惊讶的是，不是考场的压力导致了这个问题，而是复习的压力)”可知，根据研究导致考试表现不佳的原因是复习期间的压力。故选D。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段“Dr. Theobald launched a study which involved 309 German medical students who used a digital-learning platform to prepare for their final state exam. To assess their levels of anxiety, the students were asked to rate them on a five-point scale for 40 days leading up to the exam, as well as on the day of the exam and the mock exam (模拟考) taken 40 days prior.(Theobald博士发起了一项研究，涉及309名德国医学生，他们使用数字学习平台准备期末考试。为了评估他们的焦虑程度，学生们被要求在考试前40天内，以及考试当天和40天前的模拟考试中，以五分制对他们的焦虑程度进行评分)”以及第三段的“Anxiety on the day of the test did not predict exam performance at all. What did predict it was the level of knowledge a student displayed in the mock exam and the earlier digital-learning activities.(考试当天的焦虑并不能预测考试成绩。预测它的是学生在模拟考试和早期数字学习活动中表现出的知识水平)”推知，Theobald通过分析受试者的焦虑程度和考试表现来进行研究。故选C。
【10题详解】
词句猜测题。根据划线词所在句子“High levels of anxiety during the weeks before the exam took place actually hampered students, leaving them with less material to recall during the exam itself.(考试前几周的高度焦虑实际上hampered学生的学习，使他们在考试期间回忆的材料更少)”可知，考试前几周的高度焦虑导致学生在考试期间回忆的材料更少，即这种焦虑妨碍/影响了学生的学生。由此可知，划线词意为“妨碍，影响”，与restricted同义。故选A。
【11题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段的“To reduce this anxiety, she proposes a two-fold strategy for students to consider as they revise. First, they can raise their belief in their own abilities by reminding themselves of just how much they know. Second, they can attach less importance to the test by reminding themselves that, while it is important, it is not a life-or-death situation. It really isn’t.(为了减少这种焦虑，她提出了一个双重策略，供学生在复习时考虑。首先，他们可以通过提醒自己知道多少来提高对自己能力的信心。其次，他们可以通过提醒自己，虽然测试很重要，但这不是生死攸关的情况，从而降低对测试的重视程度。事实并非如此)”可知，为了减少考试焦虑，Theobald建议在学生在考前提高自己的信心，以及降低对测试的重视程度。故选B。
D
New technological tools are enabling a global community of biologists and amateur scientists to explore the natural world of sound in richer detail and at greater range than ever before. Just as microscopes helped humans observe things not visible to the naked eye, widely used microphones and machine learning models allow us to listen to sounds we cannot otherwise hear.
Billions of dollars are pouring into so-called generative artificial intelligence, such as OpenAI’s ChatGPT, with scores of new companies being launched to commercialize these foundation models. But in one sense, these models are mostly used to rearrange existing human knowledge in new combinations rather than to generate anything really new. What may have a bigger scientific impact is “additive AI”, using machine learning to explore specific, newly created data sets and extend the frontiers of human knowledge. When it comes to sonic (声音的) data, there is an incredible potential for cross-species communication through the use of machines that can translate and copy animal sounds exactly, effectively creating a “Google Translate for the zoo”.
This sonic revolution has been promoted by advances in both hardware and software. Cheap, durable, long-lasting microphones and sensors can be attached to trees in the Amazon, rocks in the Arctic or to dolphins’ backs, enabling real-time monitoring. That stream of sonic data is then processed by “additive AI”. However, this data only makes sense when combined with human observations about natural behaviors gained from painstaking fieldwork by biologists or crowdsourced analysis from amateurs.
Scientists have discovered fascinating information about the sonic universe, which has already led to practical and commercial outcomes. For example, cryptographers (密码专家) have been studying the buzzes, clicks, creaks and squeaks of whales to understand whether their “bionic Morse code” could be copied to encrypt (加密) communications. However, this is just the beginning of our exploration of sound, and there is no telling what other discoveries await us.
12. Why does the author mention microscopes in paragraph 1?
A. To highlight the popularity of microscopes.
B. To illustrate the role of sound exploration tools.
C. To show the development of scientific instruments.
D. To stress the importance of observing beyond senses.
13. How may “additive AI” assist in sound exploration?
A. It may make sense of natural behaviors independently.
B. It may guarantee the real-time monitoring of sonic data.
C. It may help create translation equipment for animal sounds.
D. It may help spread the existing human knowledge of sound.
14. What’s the author’s attitude towards sound exploration?
A. Optimistic. B. Reserved. C. Critical. D. Indifferent
15. What can be the best title for the passage?
A. Sonic Revolution: Discovering New Sounds
B. Sonic Translation: Inter-species Communication
C. Additive AI: Extending the Frontiers of Knowledge
D. Sonic Exploration with AI: Listening to the Unheard
【答案】12. B 13. C 14. A 15. D

It is never easy to cope with bullying, and doing nothing in return will only result in more intense bullying. ____16____ But keep in mind that there is only one goal — to stop the situation from worsening.
Bullies usually hunt for people who are alone. If you are with your friends, or if you are in the company of someone, it is least likely that the bully will disturb you. ____17____ Sometimes, all it takes is one loyal friend who will stay by you no matter what.
Asking the bully to stop is sometimes a good way to deal with them. Bullies tend to assume that we will never speak up to them. When we do speak up for ourselves, it takes them by surprise. ____18____ It can make them reconsider their actions.
____19____ When you do not react to what they say or do no matter how hurtful it may be for you, they start to lose interest in you. They think of it as a game. When they get an emotional response from you, it satisfies their ego. But if they get nothing, they will stop bothering you because they know you are not an easy one to crack.
Plus, some of us are born comedians, who can turn almost anything into a joke. If you are one of these people, try to take advantage of your gift to turn the situation the bully has created into a joke or just say something funny. This will break the bully’s confidence and they will know that you are strong and sure about who you are. ____20____
A. This will make them back off.
B. Bullying comes in different forms.
C. There is no simple solution to the problem.
D. Another effective measure is to ignore them.

(如果你和你的朋友在一起，或者你和某人在一起，欺凌者打扰你的可能性最小)”和下文“Sometimes, all it takes is one loyal friend who will stay by you no matter what.(有时候，只需要一个忠诚的朋友，无论发生什么，他都会陪伴在你身边)”可知，通常只要有一个忠诚的朋友在身边，被欺凌的可能性就会减到最小。由此推知，我们不需要很多朋友在身边来吓退欺凌者。G项“We’re not asking you to make a huge circle of friends.(我们并不是要求你建立一个庞大的朋友圈)”符合语境，承上启下。故选G。
【18题详解】
根据上文“Asking the bully to stop is sometimes a good way to deal with them. Bullies tend to assume that we will never speak up to them. When we do speak up for ourselves, it takes them by surprise.(要求欺凌者停止有时是对付他们的好方法。恃强凌弱的人往往认为我们永远不会和他们说话。当我们真的为自己说话时，他们会大吃一惊)”可知，在被欺凌时要敢于反抗。F项“Tell them to stop in a firm and confident voice.(用坚定而自信的声音告诉他们停下来)”符合语境。故选F。
【19题详解】
空处为本段主旨句。根据下文“When you do not react to what they say or do no matter how hurtful it may be for you, they start to lose interest in you. (当你对他们的言行没有反应时，不管这对你有多伤害，他们就会开始对你失去兴趣)”可知，本段建议我们不要理睬欺凌者。D项“Another effective measure is to ignore them.(另一个有效的措施是忽略他们)”可以作为本段主旨句，总起全段。故选D。
【20题详解】
空处位于段末应承接上文。根据上文“If you are one of these people, try to take advantage of your gift to turn the situation the bully has created into a joke or just say something funny. This will break the bully’s confidence and they will know that you are strong and sure about who you are. (如果你是这些人中的一员，试着利用你的天赋，把欺凌者制造的局面变成一个笑话，或者只是说一些有趣的话。这会打破欺凌者的信心，他们会知道你很坚强，对自己很有把握)”可知，把欺凌者制造的局面变成一个笑话或是说一些有趣的话，会打破欺凌者的信心，让他们退却。A项“This will make them back off(这会让他们退缩)”符合语境。故选A。

【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了藏历新年的情况，包括饮食习俗、庆祝活动等。
【36题详解】
考查副词。句意：藏历新年是西藏最重要的节日，通常在二月或三月。修饰谓语动词falls应用所给词的副词形式。故填typically。
【37题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：这个节日是一个充满活力和乐观的时刻，标志着西藏农历的开始。逗号后部分是状语，故空处应填非谓语动词，逻辑主语This festive season和mark之间为主动关系，应用现在分词。故填marking。
【38题详解】
考查并列连词。句意：庆祝活动包括各种各样的习俗，反映了西藏独特的文化，揭示了西藏人民的身份。定语从句中“反映西藏独特的文化”和“揭示西藏人民的身份”是并列关系，应用and连接。故填and。
【39题详解】
考查名词。句意：在新年到来之前，藏族人会对自己的家和周围环境进行彻底的清洁。空处应填名词作介词before的宾语，arrive的名词是arrival，不可数。故填arrival。
【40题详解】
考查定语从句。句意：这种做法是为了消除前一年可能聚集的消极情绪。空处引导限制性定语从句，先行词是negativity，从句缺主语，故应用关系代词which/that引导。故填which/that。
【41题详解】
考查名词的数。句意：在庆祝活动中，藏人与家人和朋友一起充分享受美味的盛宴。feast“宴会，盛宴”是可数名词，此处用复数形式表泛指。故填feasts。
【42题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：（宴会上）提供传统菜肴，如馍馍，一种蒸饺，和西藏酥油茶，由牦牛黄油和茶叶制成。分析可知，“　　　　　　　 (make) from yak butter and tea leaves”是Tibetan butter tea的后置定语，make和Tibetan butter tea是逻辑被动关系，应用过去分词。故填made。
【43题详解】
考查时态和语态。句意：此外，像西藏黄油饼干和干果这样的甜食也很受欢迎。空处为句子谓语动词，陈述客观事实，且主语sweet treats和enjoy是被动关系，故应用一般现在时的被动语态。主语是复数，故填are enjoyed。
【44题详解】
考查介词。句意：庆祝活动通常以Chunga chopa仪式结束。结合句意表达“以……结束”用end up with。故填with。
【45题详解】
考查冠词。句意：随后是向空中投掷Tsampa（一种烘烤过的大麦面粉）的仪式，象征着告别过去的一年，迎接新的开始。symbol“象征”是可数名词，此处为泛指，应添加不定冠词，且symbol的发音是辅音音素开头，故填a。

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。
When I was a kid, I was always eager to know what was inside the colorful boxes under the Christmas tree. But when that curiosity was satisfied beforehand, fun would be absent.
One Christmas Eve, my sister Tina and I decided to peek at our presents before our mom got home. Since Tina was older, and that put her in charge, she opened the first present while I was ordered to stand guard at the big picture window in our front room. I was to report any suspicious activity or person, namely our mother.
I was so excited that I could barely stand still. I couldn’t keep my eyes on the window very long, either. My head moved from the window to Tina and back to the window again. I felt like I was watching a Ping-Pong match.
“All right!” Tina shouted. She pulled out an empty jewelry box. “You know what that means, don’t you?”
I jumped up and down. “Yeah, it’s my turn!”
“No.” she said. “It means that there must be some jewelry under here.” I watched my sister search through the presents under the tree trying to find one she thought was small enough to be a necklace or earrings
“Hey, that’s not fair!” I protested, stomping my foot
“Are you watching for mom?” was all that she said. I couldn’t do anything except stand guard as she opened present after present. Finally, when she had finished wrapping her last present back up, we traded places.
My heart hammered so hard that it felt like my chest was moving in and out. Tina reminded me to be careful so I wouldn’t tear the wrapping paper.
After unwrapping a few presents, I found it faster to open one end of a present and peek inside. “Cool! Mom and Dad got me headphones (耳机) for my stereo!” I exclaimed as I pulled them out of the box.
注意：1. 续写词数应为150左右;
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
I was about to put them on when Tina shouted that Mom was coming.
_________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
The next morning, Tina and I pretended to open our presents as if nothing had happened.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】I was about to put them on when Tina shouted that Mom was coming. I quickly put back the headphones, and Tina shouted in a low voice, “Hurry up, wrap it up!” I repackaged it to make sure it was exactly the same as before. Tina quickly came over and helped me arrange the boxes as they were. We exchanged glances and ensured that our secrets were safe. At this moment, the doorbell rang and Mom entered the room.
The next morning. Tina and I pretended to open our presents as if nothing had happened. Mum asked us to look at our gifts. We were both very quiet, slowly walking to the gift boxes and opening them without curiosity. Mum saw the problem at a glance. She said smilingly, “I’m glad to see you’re happy about your gifts. However, I’ve sensed that you show no sign of surprise, and I suppose you have seen the gifts beforehand.” Looking at each other, my sister and I smiled. My mother really discovered our secret. That day, I did learn a lesson that we should also learn to be honest.
