I was promised something unique, something that I had never seen before and that would change the way I thought about food forever.What I was given was a bowl of ban mian. Although delicious, I couldn’t help feeling I had tried this dish before. As I twisted the noodles with my chopsticks, it hit me: is this not just Spaghetti (意大利面) with Chinese characteristics?I had grown up hearing stories of the Italian explorer Marco Polo bringing back pasta (意式面食) from his journeys in China in the 13th century. But the truth may be that pasta had been taken to Europe from China a lot earlier, possibly helped by Arab traders moving across Central Asia. British Spaghetti Bolognese is evidence that this type of food didn’t stop changing.The first bites of my meal made me consider the historical journey of the noodle. As my father’s family were Italian, spaghetti was never far away. I remember one lesson clearly from my grandma. That is the only way to tell if spaghetti is cooked properly is by throwing it at the wall. If it sticks, it’s ready to eat. If it falls, it still needs time to cook. I wondered to myself whether the walls of the kitchen at this restaurant were covered by spaghetti.(    ) 31. How does the writer feel about ban mian?A. Amazed. B. Afraid. C. Excited. D. Familiar.(    ) 32. The underlined word “unique” means ________ in Chinese.A. 美味的 B. 著名的 C. 独特的 D. 奇怪的(    ) 33. What does paragraph 3 mainly talk about?A. The possible origin of pasta. B. The development of pasta.C. The story of Marco Polo. D. The popularity of pasta in Europe.(    ) 34. What did the writer learn about spaghetti from his grandma?A. How to make a tasty sauce. B. How to eat it with chopsticks.C. How to tell if it’s ready to eat. D. How to make it from wheat.(    ) 35. What does the writer want to tell us?A. Cultural differences should be kept in food.B. Food can travel across cultures and change over time.C. We should respect the history of each kind of food.D. Every culture should stick to its traditional dishes.CFor more than 30 years, the 50-year-old Zhu Yanjun had been a migrant worker (外来务工) in different cities like many other people from the country; but what made him ________ was his strong passion (热情) for reading poetry and books.In early February, 2023, Zhu became well-know when he became the runner-up in the annual Chinese Poetry Competition hosted by CCTV.Zhu’s passion for reading came from his Chinese language teacher in middle school who has published many articles in magazines.“I also wanted to publish stories, so I started to read, and borrowed books from friends and classmates,” he said. Born in a village in Jingning county, Gansu province, Zhu had never left his hometown in his youth. After graduating from middle school, he became a migrant worker.Zhu worked in more than 10 cities; yet no matter where he was, he went to local bookstores and took a notebook with him in order to write down paragraphs from the books and recite them. Over the years, he has read thousands of poems and can recite more than 1,000 of them.“There is an old Chinese saying: Reading 10,000 books is not as good as traveling 10,000 miles,” said Zhu. “However, for me, although I have been to many different cities, it is not for travel but to make a living. So I improve myself by reading books and poems.”Reading poetry helps Zhu stay calm and he never complains about hard work. “Whenever I face any difficulty, I think of Chairman Mao’s quotation: ‘Nothing in the world is difficult for one who sets his mind to it’,” he told China Daily.Because of his good performance at the poetry competition, the government in Jingning county decided to hire him to work at the local cultural center. He started to work there on March 10.(    ) 36. Which word fits best in the “________” in Paragraph 1?A. creative B. energetic C. different D. confident(    ) 37.

Which of the following has the similar meaning to ‘Nothing in the world is difficult for one who sets his mind to it’?A. Every dog has its day.B. Actions speak louder than words.C. Where there is a will, there is a way.D. The grass is always greener on the other side.(    ) 39. What can we learn from Zhu Yanjun?A. Finding a good teacher. B. Attending poetry competitions.C.

Travelling and readingDHow much water is there on the moon? This is a question scientists have tried to answer for years. Scientists from China and the UK have now discovered that the moon may have plenty of water, according to a recent paper.Over billions of years, space rocks have hit the surface of the moon, causing the soil to melt (融化) and be pushed out suddenly into space. It is then cooled down and falls back to the lunar surface, forming beads (珠子) of glass.The Chang’e 5 probe, which returned to Earth on Dec 17, 2020, brought back a total of 1,731 grams of rocks and soil from the lunar surface, including glass beads, reported Xinhua.The international research team looked into the 32 glass beads. They found that about one ton of glass beads may include 0.5 kilograms of water. “This ‘water’ was in the form of hydrogen (氢气) included in the glass beads, which can easily be turned into the water we can use,” Hui Hejiu, one of the study authors said. Researchers thought that the water included in the glass beads could reach as much as 270 trillion kilograms.The solar wind could be the source of the water in the beads, according to the study. The glass beads have lots of holes inside to catch hydrogen from the wind.If the water in the beads is easy to get, it will be a “really big deal” for space exploration, Phil Bland, an expert in Australia said. At present, water used by astronauts during their long stays in space stations is recycled. The urine (尿液) produced and water used by an astronaut per day is about 2 kilograms. They are collected and purified (净化)， and then provided to astronauts to drink. With this new finding, human settlements on the moon could have plenty of water in the future.(    ) 41. The underlined word “it” in Paragraph 2 refers to ________.A. The melted soil. B. The space rock.C. The solar wind. D. The Chang’e probe.(    ) 42. According to the passage, eight tons of glass beads may include ________ kilograms of water.A. 1731 B. 32 C. 4 D. 270(    ) 43. What may be the source of the water in the glass beads?A. The solar wind. B. The lunar atmosphere.C. Melting ice on the lunar surface. D. Space rocks on the lunar surface.(    ) 44. What is the present method for getting water for astronauts in space?A. By melting the ice from space rocks.B. By taking water from solar wind.C. By taking water out of the lunar soil.D. By purifying urine and water used by astronauts.(    ) 45. Why is the discovery important for space exploration?A. It could help to find life on the moon.B. It means growing plants in space is possible.C. It means astronauts could get water from the moon.D. It could help make water recycling easier in space.第二部分  非选择题（共55分）四、任务型阅读  阅读下面的短文，并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词，每个空格只填一个单词。（共10空；每空1.5分，满分15分）Last week, my father and I went back to my hometown Zibo in Shandong to try Zibo barbecue. Recently, the local food has become so popular that people all over China travel there to taste it.On the way to Zibo, my father told me a story. Last year during the COVID-19 pandemic, thousands of college students were stuck in Zibo. The local government helped students to get through that period and offered a great barbecue dinner when the quarantine (隔离) was over. The government officers also invited the students to come back to Zibo again when spring came. I was moved when I heard this.At 5 pm, we arrived at the restaurant. My father had booked a table two days earlier. Otherwise, there wouldn’t be any seats for us. There are some differences between Zibo’s barbecue and the ones in other cities. Zibo’s barbecue restaurants have a small grill (烤架) on each table. People need to cook on the grill by themselves. When the food is ready, you put it onto a small pancake, and then add scallions (葱) and sauce before eating.People in the restaurant didn’t know each other before. But we just talked naturally about daily life and sang together. The boss of the restaurant even danced. Some local people even gave up their orders when they heard there weren’t enough seats. They wanted tourists from other places to have the chance to eat.After eating the delicious food, I kept thinking about why Zibo barbecue became popular. Is it the promise between the government and the college students, or the special, tasty food, or the warmhearted people?Why zibo barbecue becomes so popularPossible    46   Facts   47    between the government and the college studentsLast year, thousands of college students were stuck in Zibo because of COVID-19 and they got through that period with the    48    of the local government.The government not only    49    a great barbecue dinner for students when the quarantine    50    but also invited them to come back to Zibo again when spring came.Tasty foodZibo’s barbecue is    51    from those in other cities.

Everything went well.First, I washed two tomatoes and cut them into slices. Then, I broke three eggs and put the egg liquid into a small bowl. After that, I turned on the stove to heat the oil in the pot. When there was a little smoke in the pot, I quickly put tomatoes into it and stirred them. About one minute later, I put egg liquid into the pot and continued stirring. It smelt good. Finally, I added some salt into the dish. Finished! Mum couldn’t help having a bite of it.
