In late spring and early summer each year, tens f millins f butterflies cme ut f their chrysalises (蚕蛹) in the butterfly valley in suthwest China’s Yunnan prvince. Fr butterfly expert Yang Zhenwen, it is the busiest time f the year, but he greets it with great enthusiasm.
Befre the break f dawn, Yang has already arrived at the bservatin pint, busily tending t the needs f the awakening butterflies. “Due t warmer temperatures, the ‘butterfly explsin’ this year ccurred slightly earlier than usual, and the size f the butterflies is larger than that in previus years,” said 46-year-ld Yang, curatr (馆长) f the butterfly valley museum. “We expect that there will be abut 80 millin t 100 millin butterflies in the valley during this year’s ‘butterfly explsin’. That seems s crazy,” said Yang. Accrding t Yang, in the valley, mre than 320 butterfly species have been identified in specimens r phtgraphs, including the rarest, mst primitive, largest and smallest butterflies in China.
Besides Yang, many lcal villages have als assumed the rle f butterfly guardians. Hwever, the jurney tward achieving human-butterfly harmny was far frm easy. Sme tw decades ag, the villagers had little awareness f butterfly prtectin, believing wrngly that butterflies culd endanger their fd crps. They viewed them as pests that shuld be remved.
In 1998, Yang began his jurney at the agricultural science statin in Ma’an’di Twnship, the very place where the butterfly valley lies. “It was there that I gt int a frequent dilemma— the lcal villagers, seeking t prtect their crps, wuld ften turn t pesticides t kill the butterflies,” he said. “Hwever, my sincere lve fr these creatures frced me t prevent them frm harming the delicate insects.”
Nw, the develpment f ecturism relying n butterfly resurces has successfully changed the nce extremely pr twnship. Mre villagers have started reprducing butterflies. He describes the butterfly valley as a “dream-making machine”, which extends the “butterfly dream” f harmnius cexistence between humans and nature.
24. What made Yang’s aim t reach human-butterfly harmny hard in the beginning?
A. Warm temperatures in lcal villages.
B. The number and size f the butterflies.
C. Imprper lcatin f the butterfly valley.
D. Lack f awareness f butterfly prtectin.
25. What des the underlined wrd “dilemma” in paragraph 4 mean?
A. A chice difficult t make. B. A fact easy t understand.
C. A duty hard t carry ut. D. A situatin smth t deal with.
26. Which f the fllwing best describe Yang Zhenwen?
A. Hnest and prfessinal. B. Humrus and creative.
C. Hard-wrking and strng-willed. D. Generus and easy-ging.
27. Which can be a suitable title fr the passage?
A. Changing the Pr State f a Twn
B. Vlunteering as a Butterfly Guardian
C. Helping Butterflies Spread Their Wings
D. Develping a Relatinship with the Lcals
【答案】24. D 25. A 26. C 27. C
【解析】

【24题详解】

【25题详解】
词句猜测题。根据划线词后文“the lcal villagers, seeking t prtect their crps, wuld ften turn t pesticides t kill the butterflies”以及“Hwever, my sincere lve fr these creatures frced me t prevent them frm harming the delicate insects”可知，一方面当地村民为了保护自己的庄稼，经常使用杀虫剂来杀死蝴蝶，另一方面杨振文对这些生物真挚的爱迫使他阻止他们伤害这些脆弱的昆虫。即他面临一个很难做出的选择。故划线词意思是“一个很难做出的选择”。故选A。
【26题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“In 1998, Yang began his jurney at the agricultural science statin in Ma’an’di Twnship, the very place where the butterfly valley lies.( 1998年，杨在蝴蝶谷所在的马安地乡农业科学站开始了他的旅程)”以及最后一段“Nw, the develpment f ecturism relying n butterfly resurces has successfully changed the nce extremely pr twnship. Mre villagers have started reprducing butterflies. He describes the butterfly valley as a “dream-making machine”, which extends the “butterfly dream” f harmnius cexistence between humans and nature.(如今，依托蝴蝶资源开发生态旅游，成功地改变了这个曾经极度贫困的小镇。越来越多的村民开始繁殖蝴蝶。他将蝴蝶谷描述为“造梦机器”，延伸了人与自然和谐共处的“蝴蝶梦)”可推知，杨振文工作努力，意志坚强。故选C。
【27题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段“In late spring and early summer each year, tens f millins f butterflies cme ut f their chrysalises (蚕蛹) in the butterfly valley in suthwest China’s Yunnan prvince. Fr butterfly expert Yang Zhenwen, it is the busiest time f the year, but he greets it with great enthusiasm.(每年春末夏初，在中国西南部云南省的蝴蝶谷，数以千万计的蝴蝶从蛹中出来。对于蝴蝶专家杨振文来说，这是一年中最忙的时候，但他却以极大的热情迎接它)”结合文章主要介绍了蝴蝶专家杨振文多年来致力于保护蝴蝶，描述了他为蝴蝶的保护工作付出的努力。可知，C选项“帮助蝴蝶展翅”最符合文章标题。故选C。

【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。朱彦军—— 2023年中国诗歌比赛的亚军，本文讲述了他的人生经历以及他对中国古代诗歌的喜爱。
【56题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：1992年初中毕业后，他停止了学业，离开了家乡——甘肃省静宁县的一个村庄，开始外出打工。分析句子，句中stpped为谓语动词，设空处使用非谓语动词作状语。he和graduate之间是主动关系，可以表示该动作发生在谓语动词stpped之前，故使用现在分词的完成式结构，即having graduated；或者两个几乎同时发生，故使用现在分词一般式graduating。同时该空置于句首，首字母大写。故填Having graduated/Graduating。
【57题详解】
考查冠词。句意：同上。句中village为名词，此处表示泛指，village首字母为辅音音素，故设空处使用不定冠词a。故填a。
【58题详解】
考查连词。句意：在过去的30年里，尽管白天工作繁忙，但他一直在业余时间追求自己对诗歌的热爱。设空处使用连词连接前后两个句子，此处表示让步关系，故使用althugh/thugh/while引导让步状语从句。故填althugh/thugh/while。
【59题详解】
考查过去分词。句意：今年，他终于出现在中国诗歌比赛中，并获得了第二名，让观众对他的才华印象深刻。宾语the audience和非谓语动词impress是被动关系，是leave sb.+dne，使用过去分词作宾补成分，意为“留下某人某种状态”，此处表示“印象深刻的”用impressed。故填impressed。
【60题详解】
考查名词。句意：朱彦军对诗歌的热爱贯穿于他生活的方方面面。分析句子，设空处使用不可数名词enthusiasm作主语。故填enthusiasm。
【61题详解】
考查代词。句意：他在10多个城市工作，但无论他在哪里，他都会去当地的书店，随身带着笔记本，以便抄写诗歌。分析句子，设空处使用代词宾格him作宾语。故填him。
【62题详解】
考查现在完成时。句意：多年来，他读了上千首诗，能背诵其中的1000多首。句中ver the years为现在完成时时间标志，表示动作从过去发生持续到现在。主语为he为第三人称单数。故填has read。
【63题详解】
考查定语从句。句意：今年3月，朱彦军得到了一个在静宁县文化中心工作的机会，这让他有更多的时间去探索这些诗的背后。设空处引导非限制性定语从句，先行词是a chance，指物，关系词在从句中作主语，用关系代词which。故填which。
【64题详解】
考查宾语从句。句意：同上。设空处引导的是宾语从句，引导词在从句中作主语，意为“诗歌背后的什么”，用连接代词what。故填what。
【65题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：朱彦军希望能激励身边更多的人去探索阅读的美。句中inspire sb. t d sth.为固定短语，意为“鼓励某人去做某事”使用不定式肯定结构。故填t explre。

But ne gray mrning they didn’t get alng well at all! Maybe it was the weather, r maybe it was because the bird slept late. But whatever it was, they gt int a big fight.
Nah pened her eyes and stretched. Then she sat up and let her legs dangle (垂悬) ver the edge f her bed-right in Ollie’s face. She didn’t d it t be rude. It was just ne f thse things that happens with bunk beds (双层床).
But that mrning Ollie was nt in a very gd md.
“Nah!” he shuted. “Get yur stupid feet ut f my face!”
“My feet aren’t stupid, and they’re nt in yur face!” she shuted back
Befre Ollie culd answer, she skipped int the bathrm ahead f him. She tk a very lng time brushing her teeth, washing up, and cmbing her hair.
“Yu’d better cme ut f that bathrm!” shuted Ollie, banging n the dr.
“Ollie,” said Mama, cming ut f her bedrm, “yu knw better than t shut at yur sister.”
“But she’s taking t lng in the bathrm,” cmplained Ollie, “and she’s ding it n purpse!”
When Ollie raised his fist t bang n the dr again, it pened and ut came Nah, all dressed up.
“Gd mrning, Mama,” she said, as nice as yu please.
Paragraph 1:
Ollie and Nah kept n being mean t each ther that day.

Paragraph 2:
“I’ve had quite enugh f this flish fighting.”said Mama seriusly.

【答案】
Ollie and Nah kept n being mean t each ther that day. They didn’t say “please” and “thank yu” at breakfast, because they weren’t speaking t each ther. And they didn’t sit tgether n the schl bus. Nah sat in the frnt and Ollie in the back. That afternn they made a line dwn the middle f their backyard huse t shw which half was whse. Later they even tk back the things they usually shared. S angry were the brther and sister that they began shuting at each ther even luder than befre, ttally frgetting they weren’t speaking.
“I’ve had quite enugh f this flish fighting,” said Mama seriusly. “Hw n earth did yu get int a fight?” inquired Mama. The kids tried t remember, but they culdn’t. Mama tk them int her lap and shared, “Everybdy gets int an argument nce in a while — even thse wh lve each ther very much. We get angry, even call each ther names and say things we really dn’t mean — and after a while it’s ver.” S Ollie and Nah hugged, made up, and gt alng just beautifully until the next time, anyway.
【解析】
【导语】文章主要讲述的是两个小孩，Ollie和Nah的一次争吵。文章开始时说他们通常都很和睦，但是某个早晨他们起了争执，从清晨洗漱开始，持续到了学校和他们的后院小屋。他们甚至都不愿意分享东西，并且大声对吵，完全忘记了他们曾经决定不再说话。最后，他们的母亲说她已经受够了这种愚蠢的战斗，并让他们理解就算是非常爱对方的人也会有争吵的时候。最后，Ollie和Nah拥抱并和解，重新恢复了以前的友好关系。
【详解】1.段落续写：
①由第一段首句内容“那天Ollie和Nah继续对彼此刻薄。”可知，第一段可描写作Ollie和Nah二人继续争吵，并且惹得妈妈很生气。
②由第二段首句内容“我受够了这种愚蠢的争吵，妈妈严肃地说。”可知，第二段可描写母亲对二人进行开导，同时描写二人最终和好了。
2.续写线索：兄妹俩冷战——吵架——妈妈劝解——和好——感悟
3.词汇激活（一个词汇要写出相近的表达）
行为类
①坐在一起：sit tgether/get arund tgether/be seated tgether
②大喊：shut/scream with lud vice
③打仗：get int a fight/fight with sb
情绪类
①生气：s angry /get annyed
②拥抱：hug/give a hug
【点睛】[高分句型1]They didn’t say “please” and “thank yu” at breakfast, because they weren’t speaking t each ther.（由连接词because引导原因状语从句）
[高分句型2] S angry were the brther and sister that they began shuting at each ther even luder than befre, ttally frgetting they weren’t speaking.（运用了部分倒装的结构以及现在分词作状语）
