Sports play an important role in teenagers’ lives. They help teenagers keep fit and teach them teamwork. Four teenagers from different countries talk about their sports.
Li Yue, China
I do many sports, but my favourite is table tennis. I play table tennis in a club at the weekend and I’m quite good at it. On Saturday I teach some younger children to play table tennis, and that’s really fun.
Sophie, Britain
My sport is rugby. I play for the U15s, the team for players under the age of 15. My team always plays a match on Saturday or Sunday, and I usually go to practice games three times on weekdays. It’s hard work, but it’s never boring!
Ben, Canada
I love the snow and the mountains. In the holidays, I always go to the mountains with my family. I go snowboarding with my sister and other young people every day, and I’m getting really good. I want to be a famous snowboarder one day.
Laura, America
I started running when I was really young. When I was 13, I joined a club and started taking part in competitions. I have never won a race, but I’m improving all the time. That’s the most important thing for me. I’ve also made many friends since joining the club.
21. Who is good at playing table tennis?

Quietly siting there reading, I found myself suddenly listening to the train guard’s announcement. Train travelers will surely agree that when the guard makes an announcement, whether it’s the recorded message or the guard’s message, few people listen to it, because it’s often quite dull or hard to understand. This one was different. I noticed that other passengers appeared to be listening, too. Not only that, everyone was smiling!
Why was so much attention being paid to this message? As best I can recall, the guard said something along these lines, “Good Morning Ladies, Gentlemen and Children, this is the 7:35 a.m. from Penrith to Central and you’ll be pleased to know that we are right on time. And what a lovely morning it is in Sydney today. The sun is shining, birds are singing, and all’s right with the world. I trust you have a great day wherever you’re going. Thanks for catching my train this morning and I hope to see you again soon.”
Quite a few people (obviously previous strangers) started talking to one another about the guard’s excellent message and how good it had made everyone feel. I started thinking about this, and then I found the young guard and said “Were you the guard on the 7:35 a.m. from Penrith?” The guard seemed a bit stunned at first, replying, “Yes, yyyyes.”“Well, I really appreciate your announcement. Thank you for your extremely good message, which gave me and the other passengers such a good start to the day. Please keep doing it.”I said.
There are two messages for me in what happened that day. Firstly, when people are happy in their work it shows in what they do and say. Secondly, the story attaches much importance to the benefits that accumulate from thanking people for something they’ve done, particularly when it’s not expected. Can you imagine the conversation that guard would have when he got home?
24. Why do few train travelers listen to the announcements?
A. They usually feel sleepy.
B. The messages are unattractive.
C. The guard’s voice is not clear.
D. They are absorbed in books.
25. What does the underlined word “stunned”in Paragraph 3 mean?
A. Patient.
B. Cautious.
C. Excited.
D Surprise.
26. What might the guard talk about with his family when he got home?
A. The beautiful weather.
B. The recorded message.
C. The train from Penrith.
D. The unexpected appreciation.
27. Which of the following can be the best title for the text?
A. A Boring Train Story
B. An Intelligent Guard
C. A Different Train Announcement
D. A Lovely Morning in Sydney
C
“True love, only for the country”—this is a sentence from the diary of Chen Xiangrong, a 19﹣year﹣old Chinese soldier who was stationed at the border of Galwan Valley. Unluckily, Chen died during a border clash(边境冲突)between Chinese and Indian army in June 2020.
Last June, Indian army illegally(非法地)crossed to the Chinese side of the Galwan Valley and set up tents, which forced the Chinese army to react, Xinhua said. Qi Fabao, 41, with several of his soldiers tried to talk with the Indian side. However, they got hit by Indian soldiers with rocks and other things. Chen Hongjun, 33, Chen Xiangrong, 19, WangZhuoran, 24 and Xiao Siyuan, 24, died during the fight. Qi was the only one left alive, but was badly hurt. It was the first time China let us know about the names of the dead soldiers since the fight happened. According to China, Indian side did wrong in the Galwan Valley clash. On Feb 19, the Central Military Commission (CMC)honored(对……表达崇敬)one officer and four soldiers who kept the border safe. Four of them got awards after they died. The awards include honorary titles and first﹣class merit(一等功).
In China, an honorary title is the highest award for a soldier. A first﹣class merit is second﹣highest.
The country also gave money to the four soldiers’ families. A team will stay in touch with the family members and help them if needed. The four soldiers’ children will also get more points in the college entrance examination.
28. The border clash happened because _________.
A. a Chinese soldier died
B. Indian soldiers lost many tents
C. Chinese army were training in the valley
D. Indian soldiers illegally crossed the border
29. The Chinese soldiers planned to _________at first.
A. fight the Indian soldiers with rocks B. make the clash more serious
C. discuss the clash peacefully D. help Indian soldiers
30. Which of the following is TRUE?
A. China showed great honor for the four soldiers.
B. The four soldiers got honorary titles before they died.
C. People in our country raised money for four soldiers’ families.
D. The four soldiers’ children can go to any of China’s top universities.
31. The passage above is probably from _________.
A. a notice B. a storybook C. a diary D. a newspaper
D
The sun is setting, brightening your kids’ faces as they play in the waves. You reach for your phone for this perfect moment. But before you do, here’s a bit of surprising science: Taking photos is not the perfect way to keep memory as you think.
Taking too many pictures could actually harm the brain’s ability to keep memories says Elizabeth Loftus, a psychology professor at the University of California, Irvine. So we get the photo but kind of lose the memory.
Photography “outsources” memories. It works in two ways: We either shake off the responsibility of remembering moments when taking pictures, or we’re so distracted (分散注意力的) by the process that we miss the moment altogether.
The first explanation is the loss of memory. People know that their camera is recording that moment, so they don’t try to remember. Similarly, if you write down someone’s phone number, you’re less likely to remember it offhand because your brain tells you there’s just no need. That’s all well and good — until that piece of paper goes missing.
The other is distraction. We’re distracted by the process of taking a photo — how we hold our phone, composing the photo, such as smiling faces, the background to our liking and clear image, all of which uses up our attention that could otherwise help us memorize.
However, taking photos can benefit memory — when done mindfully. While taking a photo may be distracting, the act of preparation by focusing on visual (视觉的) details around has some upsides. When people take the time to zoom in (拉近镜头) on specific things, memories become strengthened.
Another benefit is that we recall moments more accurately (准确的) with the photos. Memory has been reshaped with the help of new information and new experiences. Thus, photos or videos help us recall moments as if they really happened.
Memories die away without a visual record backing them up. Therefore, a photo is an excellent tool to help remember when done purposefully, which is worth exploring further.
32 What is the purpose of the first paragraph?
A. To introduce the topic. B. To make us think of similar experience.
C. To show the interest in taking photos. D. To call on readers not to take photos.
33. Why does photography “outsource” memories?
A. Taking photos is helpful for us to memorize.
B. Photos are more detailed than memories.
C. People depend more on photos to remember than their brains.
D. Many sources influence people’s memories during photo-taking.
34. What may likely be discussed next?
A. Situations when taking photos is better. B. When distraction is most likely to happen.
C. How to stay focused while taking photos. D. How to use photo-taking to memorize better.
35. Which of the following could be the best title for the text?
A. Photography or Memories?
B. Photography Does Help to Memories
C. The Fewer Photos We Take, the Better We Will Remember
D. Remember the Moment and Take Photos Properly

There’s a question about maths you can hear in high schools all around the world, “Why on earth are we learning something that we’ll never use in real life?” ___36___ Computers can help us do the maths, and the rest of the topics will only be useful for the expert-to-be.

A. Maths is supposed to teach you to think.

Taking Chances
Ever since I was very young, ___41___ of making mistakes, I’ve asked countless times, “What should I do?” I don’t remember clearly when I ___42___ only to do things the “right” way, and made “doing it the right way” my motto.
However, sometime during my high school years, I ___43___ . Maybe it was when I decided to try for the lead in “Beauty and the Beast”. On the day of tryouts, my heart was pounding; my hands were ___44___ badly when I got up to sing. But when I opened my mouth, the sound was loud and ___45___ . I was trying to do my best even though I might fail. ___46___ I didn’t! I realized that if I wanted to live life to the fullest, I had to take ___47___ .
Now, I do take these chances, with baby steps, every day: voicing my opinions in debates, ___48___ for a high note in church choir, riding my horse over a three-foot jump.
Three years ago, I broke my back when I fell from my horse. The ___49___ meant I couldn’t try out for basketball, which I loved.

I have finally learned to ____52____ myself, like taking a tough science course. And I have come to realize that even though my parents, friends and teachers don’t always have the ____53____ to “What should I do?”, they will be there to ____54____ me when I try.

Five years ago, I had a nine-to-five job, and I usually commuted to work by bus. Those long tiring hours of travelling were always annoying. But one day, it was healing.
It was a warm March evening, and I'd just taken a seat on the bus that would take me home. I sat in the third row by the window, on the driver's side. It was nearly 6:00 p.m., but the bus was not yet full and the driver gave no indication that he intended to get the bus on the road anytime soon.
A middle-aged woman look a seat opposite me. She was crying. Not speaking to anyone in particular, she tearfully told her story.
She had come to the city to visit her daughter. On the way to the terminal, a thief had snatched one of her bags. It had contained half of the money she'd brought with her. The other half was rolled in a handkerchief and hidden under her blouse, so she fortunately still had some money left.
The bus conductor, driver, and other passengers listened to her tale. After a few minutes, she stopped crying, removed some cheese bread from her bag, and began to eat, worry still sweeping over her.
An old man in ragged and shabby clothes got on the bus. He sat in the seal directly in front of the woman.
After a few minutes, all seats were taken. The driver got behind the wheel and started the engine. The bus conductor collected tickets and began asking us where we were getting off. When by came to the old man's seal, he became suspicious and asked the old man whether he had any money .The old man admitted that he did not. He explained that he had spent all his money this morning when he'd accidentally got on the wrong bus and now he was trying to go home.

【答案】17. B 18. A 19. C 20. A
【解析】
【原文】W: When travel agents mention Pamplona, Spain, most travelers think of the famous festival during the second week in July known as the Running of the Bulls. This festival started in the Middle Ages when butchers needed to get their meat to the market. Long ago, these meat sellers would drive the cattle in front of them through the narrow streets to the marketplace. If you want to save money, come to Pamplona any of the other 51 weeks of the year. You are sure to find plenty to do. Treat yourself to a five-star meal featuring local beef and, of course, wine. And if you’re interested in history, you’ll probably enjoy the Museo de Navarra, the local museum. The building was a hospital in the Middle Ages, and it now houses a unique collection including everything from Roman drawings to modern Spanish art. No trip to Spain would be complete without a visit to a church, so you’ll want to save some time for the Cathedral of St. Mary. The outside was built in the 18th century, but the heart of the church is from the later part of the Middle Ages. Now, who is ready to book their vacation of a lifetime?

Quietly siting there reading, I found myself suddenly listening to the train guard’s announcement. Train travelers will surely agree that when the guard makes an announcement, whether it’s the recorded message or the guard’s message, few people listen to it, because it’s often quite dull or hard to understand. This one was different. I noticed that other passengers appeared to be listening, too. Not only that, everyone was smiling!
Why was so much attention being paid to this message? As best I can recall, the guard said something along these lines, “Good Morning Ladies, Gentlemen and Children, this is the 7:35 a.m. from Penrith to Central and you’ll be pleased to know that we are right on time. And what a lovely morning it is in Sydney today. The sun is shining, birds are singing, and all’s right with the world. I trust you have a great day wherever you’re going. Thanks for catching my train this morning and I hope to see you again soon.”
Quite a few people (obviously previous strangers) started talking to one another about the guard’s excellent message and how good it had made everyone feel. I started thinking about this, and then I found the young guard and said “Were you the guard on the 7:35 a.m. from Penrith?” The guard seemed a bit stunned at first, replying, “Yes, yyyyes.”“Well, I really appreciate your announcement. Thank you for your extremely good message, which gave me and the other passengers such a good start to the day. Please keep doing it.”I said.
There are two messages for me in what happened that day. Firstly, when people are happy in their work it shows in what they do and say. Secondly, the story attaches much importance to the benefits that accumulate from thanking people for something they’ve done, particularly when it’s not expected. Can you imagine the conversation that guard would have when he got home?
24. Why do few train travelers listen to the announcements?
A. They usually feel sleepy.
B. The messages are unattractive.
C. The guard’s voice is not clear.
D. They are absorbed in books.
25. What does the underlined word “stunned”in Paragraph 3 mean?
A. Patient.
B. Cautious.
C. Excited.
D. Surprise.
26 What might the guard talk about with his family when he got home?
A. The beautiful weather.
B. The recorded message.
C. The train from Penrith.
D. The unexpected appreciation.
27. Which of the following can be the best title for the text?
A. A Boring Train Story
B. An Intelligent Guard
C. A Different Train Announcement
D. A Lovely Morning in Sydney

The sun is setting, brightening your kids’ faces as they play in the waves. You reach for your phone for this perfect moment. But before you do, here’s a bit of surprising science: Taking photos is not the perfect way to keep memory as you think.
Taking too many pictures could actually harm the brain’s ability to keep memories, says Elizabeth Loftus, a psychology professor at the University of California, Irvine. So we get the photo but kind of lose the memory.
Photography “outsources” memories. It works in two ways: We either shake off the responsibility of remembering moments when taking pictures, or we’re so distracted (分散注意力的) by the process that we miss the moment altogether.
The first explanation is the loss of memory. People know that their camera is recording that moment, so they don’t try to remember. Similarly, if you write down someone’s phone number, you’re less likely to remember it offhand because your brain tells you there’s just no need. That’s all well and good — until that piece of paper goes missing.
The other is distraction. We’re distracted by the process of taking a photo — how we hold our phone, composing the photo, such as smiling faces, the background to our liking and clear image, all of which uses up our attention that could otherwise help us memorize.
However, taking photos can benefit memory — when done mindfully. While taking a photo may be distracting, the act of preparation by focusing on visual (视觉的) details around has some upsides. When people take the time to zoom in (拉近镜头) on specific things, memories become strengthened.
Another benefit is that we recall moments more accurately (准确的) with the photos. Memory has been reshaped with the help of new information and new experiences. Thus, photos or videos help us recall moments as if they really happened.
Memories die away without a visual record backing them up. Therefore, a photo is an excellent tool to help remember when done purposefully, which is worth exploring further.
32. What is the purpose of the first paragraph?
A. To introduce the topic. B. To make us think of similar experience.
C. To show the interest in taking photos. D. To call on readers not to take photos.
33. Why does photography “outsource” memories?
A. Taking photos is helpful for us to memorize.
B. Photos are more detailed than memories.
C. People depend more on photos to remember than their brains.
D. Many sources influence people’s memories during photo-taking.
34. What may likely be discussed next?
A. Situations when taking photos is better. B. When distraction is most likely to happen.
C. How to stay focused while taking photos. D. How to use photo-taking to memorize better.
35. Which of the following could be the best title for the text?
A. Photography or Memories?
B. Photography Does Help to Memories
C. The Fewer Photos We Take, the Better We Will Remember
D. Remember the Moment and Take Photos Properly
【答案】32. A 33. C 34. D 35. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了拍太多照片不利于人们铭记瞬间的美好，作者鼓励人们应有目的有计划地拍照。
【32题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段“The sun is setting, brightening your kids’ faces as they play in the waves. You reach for your phone for this perfect moment. But before you do, here’s a bit of surprising science: Taking photos is not the perfect way to keep memory as you think.(太阳落山了，孩子们在海浪中玩耍，他们的脸变得明亮起来。为了这个完美的时刻，你伸手去拿手机。但在你这么做之前，这里有一点令人惊讶的科学：拍照并不是你认为的保持记忆的完美方式)”可知，本段描写了海边游玩的美好画面，人们会习惯性地拿出手机拍照留念，但拍照并不是人们所以为的保存记忆的完美方式，从而引出文章的主题。故选A。
【33题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“Photography “outsources” memories. It works in two ways: We either shake off the responsibility of remembering moments when taking pictures, or we’re so distracted (分散注意力的) by the process that we miss the moment altogether.(摄影“外包”的记忆。它在两方面起作用：我们要么在拍照时摆脱了记住时刻的责任，要么在拍照过程中分心，以至于完全错过了那个时刻)”可推知，拍照“外包”了回忆是因为人们太过于依赖相机而不是自己的大脑。故选C。
【34题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段最后一句“Therefore, a photo is an excellent tool to help remember when done purposefully, which is worth exploring further.(因此，照片是帮助记忆的极好工具，如果是有目的的，这是值得进一步探索的)”可推知，接下来文章可能会探讨如何照相以便能更好地记忆。故选D。
【35题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文可知，文章主要介绍了拍太多的照片不利于人们铭记瞬间的美好，作者鼓励人们应有目的有计划地拍照。由此可推知，D项“记住当下，合理拍照”概括了文章大意，是本文的最佳标题。故选D。

第二节 (满分25分)
67. 读后续写
Five years ago, I had a nine-to-five job, and I usually commuted to work by bus. Those long tiring hours of travelling were always annoying. But one day, it was healing.
It was a warm March evening, and I'd just taken a seat on the bus that would take me home. I sat in the third row by the window, on the driver's side. It was nearly 6:00 p.m., but the bus was not yet full and the driver gave no indication that he intended to get the bus on the road anytime soon.
A middle-aged woman look a seat opposite me. She was crying. Not speaking to anyone in particular, she tearfully told her story.
She had come to the city to visit her daughter. On the way to the terminal, a thief had snatched one of her bags. It had contained half of the money she'd brought with her. The other half was rolled in a handkerchief and hidden under her blouse, so she fortunately still had some money left.
The bus conductor, driver, and other passengers listened to her tale. After a few minutes, she stopped crying, removed some cheese bread from her bag, and began to eat, worry still sweeping over her.
An old man in ragged and shabby clothes got on the bus. He sat in the seal directly in front of the woman.
After a few minutes, all seats were taken. The driver got behind the wheel and started the engine. The bus conductor collected tickets and began asking us where we were getting off. When by came to the old man's seal, he became suspicious and asked the old man whether he had any money .The old man admitted that he did not. He explained that he had spent all his money this morning when he'd accidentally got on the wrong bus and now he was trying to go home.
注意：1.所续写短文的词数应为150左右：
2.续写部分分为两段，每段的开头语已为你写好；
Paragraph 1:
Upon hearing this, the bus conductor ordered the old man to get off the bus.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Paragraph 2:
The woman seated behind the old man was also listening and observing the incident.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】Paragraph 1:
Upon hearing this, the bus conductor ordered the old man to get off the bus. The old man didn't move. He was almost in tears as he begged the bus conductor to let him take that bus so he could get home before dark. The bus driver, who had been listening to his explanation, stood up, approached the old man, and repeated the conductor's command to urge the old man to get off the bus. Apart from the harsh word from the driver and sobs from the old man, the whole bus was in a terrible silence. All the other passengers including me watched quietly.
Paragraph 2:
The woman seated behind the old man was also listening and observing the incident. When the bus driver and conductor raised their voices at the old man, she interfered. “Stop harassing him! Can't you see he's only trying to get home?” “He doesn't have any money!” the driver shouted. “Well, that's no reason to throw him off the bus,” she insisted. “It's just money,” she shrugged. Meanwhile, she reached inside her blouse, took out her remaining money, and handed the fares to the conductor. “Here is his fare and mine. Just stop giving him a hard time.” Later, she also shared her bread with the old man. And I found a Mona Lisa smile of peace and grace spreading across her face instead of worry. How much sweeter the journey was when we made it a little smoother and richer for others.
【解析】
【分析】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了作者五年前坐公交车时遇到了一个哭泣的妇女，妇女说自己的钱被小偷抢走了一半，后来一位衣衫褴褛的老人上了公共汽车，但是老人因为早上坐错了车，如今没钱买车票，想要回家，售票员要赶他下车，他苦苦哀求，结果是妇女为老人付了车费。
【详解】1.段落续写：
①由第一段首句内容“听到这句话，售票员命令老人下车。”可知，第一段可描写老人面对售票员的驱赶时的反应，他苦苦哀求，结果司机也催促老人下车，除了司机严厉的责骂和老人的抽泣，整个公共汽车陷入了可怕的沉默。
②由第二段首句内容“坐在老人后面的女人也在聆听和观察着这一事件。”可知，第二段可描写妇女为老人买了票，还分面包给老人，作者也由此感悟到：当我们可以让他人的生活过得更顺利、更丰富时，一段旅程也可以很甜蜜。
2.续写线索：售票员驱赶老人——司机催促老人下车——车里陷入沉默——妇女为老人买票——作者感悟
