When we decided to sell our flat, having been cheated by the previous owner, we thought it was really important to be completely honest with any potential buyers about having knotweed (蓼科杂草) in the garden. It had been such an unpleasant and stressful experience for us and we didn’t want to have anyone else suffer any longer.
We bought our two-bedroom flat in 2014, when it was just the two of us. But after having three kids it became too small, so we sold it last year. The flat has a small garden at the back, but we didn’t know the presence of knotweed until well after we moved in and had a note from our neighbor behind our flat saying that they thought we had knotweed. Then we had a look and found some very small offshoots for this was just around springtime. At that point my husband and I certainly didn’t realize quite how problematic it could be. But then we started reading all the horror stories and became really concerned — people couldn’t get a mortgage; they couldn’t sell; the plant was creeping through concrete etc.
Then we treated the offshoots with glyphosate and as far as we knew it was completely gone. Before we put the property on the market we had the house checked by some specialists, who thoroughly inspected everything, including the connecting garden, and couldn’t find anything at all. We signed a ten-year insurance-backed guarantee with the company that could be transferred to the new owners, then started marketing the property through an agent.
In fact we found a buyer pretty quickly and they didn’t beat us down on price as we’d already done much for the treatment. Knotweed doesn’t need to be a deal-breaker, as long as you’re upfront about it.
4．Why did the writer probably decide to sell the flat?
A．To remind others to be honest. B．To escape the trouble of knotweed.
C．To avoid the crowded living space. D．To relieve the anger of being cheated.5．What can we know about knotweed from the text?
A．It is planted for home decoration. B．It is a wild plant seen only in spring.
C．It would cause much trouble to people’s life. D．It aroused writer’s attention at very beginning.6．How did the writer succeed in selling the flat at a reasonable price?
A．By showing tricks to the buyer. B．By taking effort to treat the knotweed.
C．By finding a well-known property agent. D．By decorating the flat with a fantastic garden.7．Which of the following best describes the writer?
A．Dependable and responsible. B．Patient and modest.
C．Helpless and embarrassed. D．Careless and greedy.

Rivers are the veins of the Earth, transporting the water and nutrients (营养物) needed to support the planet’s ecosystems, including human life. While many nutrients are essential to the survival of life, there is one element transported by water in rivers that holds the key to life and to the future of our planet — carbon.
Carbon is everywhere and understanding the way it moves and is either released or stored by the Earth system is a complex science in itself. Carbon starts its journey downstream when natural acid rain, which contains carbon dioxide from the atmosphere,  melts minerals in rocks. This helps transform carbon dioxide to bicarbonate (碳酸氢盐) in the water that then flows in our rivers. This is a very long process, which is one of the main ways carbon dioxide is removed from the atmosphere. Carbon is transported by rivers to oceans and once that carbon reaches the ocean, it is stored naturally in deep sea sediments (沉淀物) for millions of years.
As carbon travels down a river, different processes may impact whether it continues to flow downstream or whether it is released into the atmosphere. For example, human engineering, like extensive dam construction, will result in dramatic changes to how water and sediments travel down the river. Some carbon that fails to reach the sea may return to the atmosphere in some way, which causes more warming.
Earth’s climate is closely related to the carbon cycle. We all know about the essential role of plants in consuming carbon dioxide, but do we know enough about rivers? Changing the chemistry and the course of rivers may have significant impacts on how they transport carbon. Remember: wherever we live, we all live downstream.
8．Where is the carbon in rivers originally from?
A．The atmosphere. B．The rocks.
C．The acid rain. D．The upstream areas.9．Why is human engineering mentioned in Paragraph 3?
A．To show how important to life carbon is.
B．To explain how necessary it is to build dams.
C．To show how a natural process is interrupted.
D．To explain how humans fight global warming.10．What does the author want to convey in the last paragraph?
A．We’d better move upstream to live.
B．We should protect plants along rivers.
C．We’d better seek more help from plants.
D．We should be cautious about river management.11．What is the best title for the text?
A．What Humans Do with Rivers
B．How Rivers’ Transporting Carbon Counts
C．What the Carbon Cycle Means to Us
D．How Living Downstream Affects the Earth

This is the digital age. If you don’t know what ChatGPT is, think of the digital products you’re constantly exposed to. Technology can close the gap between paper and screen, but not entirely. Typing will never be as distinctive as handwriting. Mastery of digital technologies is vital, but a sense of touch, authenticity and humanity still matter.
A recent research reveals the enduring value of paper, whether in making decisions, winning over customers or enhancing productivity. In a study from Maferima at Northwestern University and Lili Wang of Zhejiang University, the researchers approached strangers and asked them to take a made-up survey. Half the respondents were given a pen and paper to fill out the form; the other half were handed an iPad. At the end of the exercise, respondents were asked if they wanted to give their email address to receive information on how to donate to a charity. Those who used paper were much likelier to provide their email addresses.
The researchers also saw differences in behavior when they showed Chinese university students an ad for a bookseller at the end of the survey, and then asked them to select some of the books that were being promoted. Those using paper to fill out the questionnaire chose more highbrow books on average than those using the tablet. When asked, paper-and-pen respondents were indeed more likely than iPad users to think their choices were more indicative of their characters.
And in a study from 2017, researchers found that people assigned a greater value to the physical version of a product than its digital version. Shoppers were willing to pay more for books and films they could hold than ones they could only download. Even the sight of someone handling something can help online sales. They found that Instagram posts showing hands touching products like cups of coffee or smartphones got more likes than those that were not being pawed. Similarly, people browsing in a shop on line were more willing to buy a T-shirt if they saw their own simulated hand touch it. All of these explain why retailers target consumers who do more of their shopping offline when selling pricier, less functional products.
12．What does the author want to say in Paragraph 1?
A．Together with ChatGPT comes the digital age. B．Paper still has a role to play in the digital age.
C．People won’t write with pen in the future. D．Digital products do harm to our health.13．How does the author mainly develop paragraphs 2&3?
A．By asking questions. B．By giving examples. C．By listing reasons. D．By making comparisons.14．Which word can replace the underlined word “simulated” in the last paragraph?
A．shaky B．tiny C．virtual D．soft15．What can we infer from the passage?
A．On-line shops will fail to attract customers in the future.
B．A hand-written birthday card is better than a text message.
C．A person with an app will be more likely to stick to his plan.
D．All exams and interviews will be conducted with pen and paper.


二、七选五
Movies and TV shows would have you believe that friendships just fall into place effortlessly, without much conflict. 16 By building a strong foundation for your friendship and working to reduce conflict, maintaining your relationships with friends will become a whole lot easier.
Be positive.
Focusing on the upside makes you a better friend. 17 If you’re someone who likes discussing emotional subjects, that’s okay, but remember to strike a balance and talk about more cheerful or lighthearted topics, too. Discussing something as simple as books or video games, or sharing funny or uplifting stories, is better for your friendships (and everyone’s moods).
Display interest in your friends.
18 When you don’t know what to talk about, it can be tempting to talk about yourself —but if you only talk about yourself, your friends might get annoyed. Making an effort to learn about your friends shows them that you want to know about who they are, and helps you build a better relationship with them. Ask them open-ended questions about their lives and interests —it will go a long way!
Listen to them.
Listening is just as important as showing interest. 19 Give your friend your full attention, and make mental notes about the important things in their lives — like the names of their loved ones, things they like, and major things that have happened (or are happening) in their lives.
20
Every friend will have their own oddities and behaviors. While it’s important to solve friendship problems, sometimes a “problem” is so minor that it’s not worth starting a possible conflict over it — like if they’re always five minutes late. Plus, trying to change how your friend acts can be tiring for you both. Accepting your friend’s “good sides” and “bad sides” will make it easier to get along.
A．Respect your differences.
B．Accept your friends as they are.
C．Your friends want to feel like you care about their lives.
D．Reflect back what you heard by retelling what they said.
E．It’ll help you learn about your friends and support them when they need it.
F．Complaints about hopeless situations can wear your friends thin after a while.
G．In real life, though, friendship takes a lot of work and can be complicated sometimes!

六、读后续写
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。
With the start of new school, freshmen of Hendersonville High School in Nashville were excited to meet new classmates and teachers. Among them, however,15-year-old Sergio Peralta was feeling very nervous because his right hand had never fully formed since he was born. Going to a new school and being “different” is always scary. Sergio was particularly concerned with what his classmates would think of him.
Sergio’s parents had trained him to use his left hand from an early age. As he grew up, he was used to not using his right hand. He could write with his left one and do some things with special tricks or techniques. Despite this, in the first days of new school, Sergio always felt like hiding his underdeveloped right hand in his sleeve as if nobody would ever find out if he did so.
It didn’t take long for someone to learn Sergio’s secret. Jeff Wilkins, the teacher of Sergio’s engineering class, figured out that Sergio was missing part of his hand and decided to do something for the new student. Jeff had been leading a robotics project in the school and expert in 3D printing technology. Besides, he hoped to take advantage of this hands-on chance to help his robotics students learn more about engineering and how building a robotic hand worked.
So in his class, Jeff announced with great enthusiasm, “You’re supposed to be engineering, coming up with new ideas and solving issues. Now Sergio needs a new hand, so we’ll work together to build Sergio a robotic hand.” His words fueled everyone’s curiosity and creativity.
For the next four weeks, Jeff and his class including Sergio worked on the project. After some precise measurements and researches, the class put forward a design draft. Jeff made a few adjustments and gave them some practical suggestions. With access to online models and a 3D printer, they eventually created a robotic hand, which was intended to look good and work well, like catching something.

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。
Then came the final testing day.

【导语】这是一篇说明文。在数字时代，纸张仍有一席之地。文章主要介绍了最近的一项研究表明，无论是在决策、赢得客户还是提高生产力方面，纸张都是有持久价值的。
12．主旨大意题。根据第一段中“Typing will never be as distinctive as handwriting. Mastery of digital technologies is vital, but a sense of touch, authenticity and humanity still matter.(打字永远不会像手写那样与众不同。掌握数字技术至关重要，但触觉、真实性和人性仍然很重要)”可知，作者在第一段想表达的是在数字时代，纸张仍有一席之地。故选B。
13．推理判断题。根据第二段中“Half the respondents were given a pen and paper to fill out the form; the other half were handed an iPad. At the end of the exercise, respondents were asked if they wanted to give their email address to receive information on how to donate to a charity. Those who used paper were much likelier to provide their email addresses.(一半的受访者得到了纸和笔来填写表格，另一半则得到了iPad。在实验结束时，受访者被问及是否愿意提供自己的电子邮件地址，以获得如何向慈善机构捐款的信息。那些使用纸张的人更有可能提供他们的电子邮件地址)”和第三段中“Those using paper to fill out the questionnaire chose more highbrow books on average than those using the tablet. When asked, paper-and-pen respondents were indeed more likely than iPad users to think their choices were more indicative of their characters.(那些使用纸张填写问卷的人比使用平板电脑的人平均选择了更多高雅的书籍。当被问及这个问题时，纸笔受访者确实比iPad用户更倾向于认为他们的选择更能体现他们的性格。)”可推知，作者通过作比较来描述第二段和第三段的。故选D。

(同样，人们在网上商店浏览时，如果看到自己的simulated手触摸到一件T恤，他们更愿意购买)”中的Similarly可知，上文和划线句子都是在强调用手触摸产品的重要性，但是在网上购物，只能是虚拟的手在触摸产品，由此可推知划线单词“simulated”意思是“虚拟的”，与C项“virtual(虚拟的)”意思一样，故选C。
15．推理判断题。根据第三段中“When asked, paper-and-pen respondents were indeed more likely than iPad users to think their choices were more indicative of their characters.(当被问及这个问题时，纸笔受访者确实比iPad用户更倾向于认为他们的选择更能体现他们的性格)”和第一段介绍的纸张仍有一席之地可推知，手写的生日贺卡比短信好。故选B。

【导语】本文是一篇应用文。文章主要介绍了几种方法，能够帮助你更好地维护和朋友之间的关系。
16．根据空前“Movies and TV shows would have you believe that friendships just fall into place effortlessly, without much conflict.(电影和电视节目会让你相信友谊会毫不费力地建立起来，没有太多的冲突。)”可知，电影和电视节目会让人决定友谊的建立不费力气。而空后内容“By building a strong foundation for your friendship and working to reduce conflict, maintaining your relationships with friends will become a whole lot easier.(为你的友谊建立一个坚实的基础，努力减少冲突，维护你和朋友的关系会变得容易得多。)”则暗示情况并非如此，友谊的建立还是需要一些技巧的。选项G“In real life, though, friendship takes a lot of work and can be complicated sometimes!(然而，在现实生活中，友谊需要付出很多努力，有时还会很复杂！)”和空前内容存在转折关系，同时引出下文内容，也就是友谊的建立需要付出努力。故选G。
17．根据空前内容“Focusing on the upside makes you a better friend.(关注好的一面会让你成为一个更好的朋友。)”可知，作者建议要关注生活中积极向上的一面。而空后“If you’re someone who likes discussing emotional subjects, that’s okay, but remember to strike a balance and talk about more cheerful or lighthearted topics, too.(如果你是一个喜欢讨论情感话题的人，那没关系，但记住要保持平衡，也要谈论更愉快或轻松的话题。)”也建议我们不要只谈论情感话题，可以保持话题的平衡。选项F“Complaints about hopeless situations can wear your friends thin after a while.(抱怨无望的处境会让你的朋友在一段时间后变少。)”是上文内容的延续，指的是如果只会抱怨会让自己的朋友变少。故选F。
18．空处为段首句，为本段主要内容。根据下文内容“When you don’t know what to talk about, it can be tempting to talk about yourself —but if you only talk about yourself, your friends might get annoyed. Making an effort to learn about your friends shows them that you want to know about who they are, and helps you build a better relationship with them. Ask them open-ended questions about their lives and interests —it will go a long way!(当你不知道该说什么的时候，谈论你自己是很有诱惑力的——但是如果你只谈论你自己，你的朋友可能会生气。努力了解你的朋友，向他们表明你想了解他们，并帮助你与他们建立更好的关系。问他们一些关于他们生活和兴趣的开放式问题——这会大有帮助的！)”可知，本段主要建议我们要对朋友的事情表现出兴趣。选项C“Your friends want to feel like you care about their lives.(你的朋友希望你关心他们的生活。)”符合下文内容，点明之所以要对朋友的事情感兴趣的原因。故选C。
19．根据空前内容“Listening is just as important as showing interest.(倾听和表现出兴趣同样重要。)”可知，作者认为倾听朋友也很重要。选项E“It’ll help you learn about your friends and support them when they need it.(它会帮助你了解你的朋友，并在他们需要的时候支持他们。)”延续了上文的内容，讲述了倾听朋友话之所以重要是因为倾听可以帮助我们了解自己的朋友。同时与下文“Give your friend your full attention, and make mental notes about the important things in their lives — like the names of their loved ones, things they like, and major things that have happened (or are happening) in their lives.(给你的朋友你的全部注意力，并在心里记下他们生活中重要的事情——比如他们所爱的人的名字，他们喜欢的东西，以及他们生活中已经发生(或正在发生)的主要事情。)”保持一致，讲述的都是倾听的重要性。故选E。
20．空处为小标题，为本段主要内容。根据下文“Every friend will have their own oddities and behaviors. While it’s important to solve friendship problems, sometimes a “problem” is so minor that it’s not worth starting a possible conflict over it — like if they’re always five minutes late. Plus, trying to change how your friend acts can be tiring for you both. Accepting your friend’s “good sides” and “bad sides” will make it easier to get along. (每个朋友都有自己的怪癖和行为。虽然解决友谊问题很重要，但有时“问题”太小了，不值得为它引发可能的冲突——比如他们总是迟到五分钟。另外，试图改变你朋友的行为会让你们俩都很累。接受朋友的“好的一面”和“坏的一面”会让你们更容易相处。)”可知，在本段中，作者建议我们要接受朋友本来的样子，不管是好的一面还是不好的一面。选项B“Accept your friends as they are.(接受你的朋友本来的样子。)”符合下文内容。故选B。

47．范文
Then came the final testing day. The whole class gathered in the science classroom, watching breathlessly as Jeff carefully loaded their self-made robotic hand onto Sergio's right arm. It fitted quite well! So excited was Sergio that his arm trembled slightly. Having put a baseball on the desk, Jeff signed to Sergio to pick it up. Slowly, Sergio extended his right hand and reached for the ball. Successfully he caught hold of it and everyone present broke into cheers! Holding the ball, Sergio couldn't contain his tears. Never in his life did he expect to catch something with his right hand!
The life-changing gift for Sergio drew huge attention. Jeff and his students became an instant hit and various media competed to cover the news. When interviewed about the intention of the project, Jeff said, “I intended Sergio's robotic hand to show our support for him. Meanwhile, I hope to foster students' scientific spirit through this hands-on operation.” His students stated that Jeff challenged them to transform abstract concepts into reality, from which they benefited greatly. Soon voluntary donations poured in, which would go to the school's scientific research and help students develop better.
