From a multi-day hike following the routes of a Japanese poet, to a classic climb in the Argentinian Lake District, there are thousands of incredible trails (小路) that allow us to get up close to nature.

Appalachian Trail, United States

Extending for 2,200 miles, the Appalachian Trail is listed as the longest hiking-only footpath in the world. It runs from Springier Mountain in Georgia to Mount Katahdin in Maine, passing through some of the most remote country in the United States. That means it’s a hard task, either for those with endless vacation allowance, or walkers looking to do a small piece of a classic route.

The Basho Wayfarer, Japan

This self-guided trip follows a route taken by the poet Matsuo Basho over 300 years ago. The six-day hike starts in Sendai and works its way through the northern Tohoku region, passing through the UNESCO World Heritage (遗产)Site of Hiraizumi and along the ancient Dewa Kaido path. With its beech and cherry forests, it finishes at the temple of Yamadera.

Mount Toubkal, Morocco

The path upwards rises from the village of Imlil, passing over a dry river bed before rising sharply through a temple and on towards a large mountain cottage. After overnight here, hikers set off up the snowfield to the peak, where the Atlas Mountains open out and the views are breathtaking. A local guide and muleteers for carrying luggage are a must.

The Dingle Way, Ireland

It is a ring-like path that offers the best way to get under the skin of wild County Kerry in Ireland’s south west. Starting in the town of Tralee, the clockwise path follows narrow roads, taking in the wide sweep of sand at Inch Strand, passing along the clifftops outside Dingle town and heading around the edge of Mount Brardon, the highest peak on the Dingle Peninsula.

1．What do we know about the Basho Wayfarer?

A．It offers no guide service. B．It was built by a poet.

C．It ends in the northern Tohoku region. D．It is on the world heritage list.

2．Where can hikers enjoy a good view of snow?

A．Appalachian Trail. B．The Basho Wayfarer.

C．Mount Toubkal. D．The Dingle Way.

3．What is special about the Dingle Way?

A．It follows a circle path. B．It is the longest in the world.

C．It finishes at Mount Brandon. D．It reaches the highest peak in Ireland.

B

Ke’Nyzjah Ferebee was standing by the kitchen worktop, adding cupcake liners to a pan. She used an ice cream spoon to fill each with cake batter (面糊) to ensure they would look identical. A finished group sat on the counter with white buttercream turning on top. The cupcakes were for a 2-year-old’s “Moana”-themed birthday party. The next day, she had orders for a two-tiered cake and two birthday cakes.

While most teenagers are spending the summer hanging out with friends and working, Ke’Nyzjah is filling orders, updating her website and getting new branding photos. She owns and operates KayKe Bakery, a home-based business, specializing in custom cakes and cupcakes. She offers 14 flavors. She requires at least two to four weeks’ notice on orders, and she gets six to seven a week.

In 2020, she started baking out of boredom and a desire for cake. She asked her mom for a solution. Mom pointed her to a box of cake mix in the cupboard. Ke’Nyzjah’s first attempt failed. But she tried making more cakes the next day. She got better.

She watched hours of YouTube videos to come up with a recipe and to teach herself baking techniques. “Once I got on Instagram and started seeing other people’s decorated cakes, that’s when I got inspired to be a cake artist instead of just a baker,” she said. She took business classes such as digital marketing at her school. She also registered for a course to become a certified customer service specialist. It taught her how to talk to customers and get through a sale. She’s constantly trying to find more ways to promote her business and find new clients. “It’s a little difficult having to keep up with both my Instagram and my Facebook pages and managing school, personal life and a business. It can be a lot sometimes, but I manage.”

Nakesia Fercbec, Ke’Nyzjah’s mother, felt her daughter’s father has been influential. Ke’Nyzjah gives her mother a large of the credit. “She’s like my biggest supporter. She’s made me who I am. I’ve come to realize that I am an incredible person.”

4．What was Ke’Nyzjah doing according to the first paragraph?

A．Designing a themed party. B．Making cakes for business.

C．Preparing for her birthday party. D．Placing an order for cakes online.

5．What can be inferred about Kayke Bakery?

A．It is well received. B．It hosts parties for customers.

C．It is a joint business. D．It mainly provides service for kids

6．What might be a challenge for Ke’Nyzjah?

A．Attending business classes. B．Teaching herself baking techniques.

C．Getting along with her clients. D．Balancing her business with schooling.

7．What is the text mainly about?

A．A home-based teen baker. B．A boredom-killing bakery.

C．How to become a cake artist. D．How to start a business.

C

I am thinking today about my new favorite thing. It’s an app that my husband told me a few years ago that helps me bypass all the obstacles (障碍) in my way: potholes, heavy traffic, and even speed cameras.

To be honest, when my husband first told me about it, I didn’t pay much attention. I was only going to places I already knew how to get to. Plus, I learned to drive from my father—who never turned to a map. I think I mistakenly absorbed the message that real drivers didn’t need a map; you somehow just magically knew where to go. It was only later that I realized that just getting a driver’s license didn’t mean you knew how to get to places—that was lesson one. Lesson two came when my kids started playing on two different travel teams. The drivers in our household suddenly had the need to head in different directions on the same day.

Suddenly my app became very meaningful to me. How did I ever manage to get to strange playing fields hidden somewhere without it? But the crazy thing I have also noticed is how often I just don’t listen to it. Why might that be? Do I just prefer the old routes, even if they are actually worse? I see an analogy (类比) to the present moment. There is evidence that some old ideas and some long familiar ideas will send us into a boring unchanging lifestyle. But for some reason we like them better than an unfamiliar new route that might take us into areas we’ve never heard of, let alone visited.

It can be hard to admit we don’t know everything. As a person who still drives an 8-year-old stick shift and who has never stood in line for anything new, I certainly understand that. But I also try to remember the times I let go of my ego (自负), or my fear, and learned that life could be better. Not perfect—but better. I am glad I finally listened to my husband about that app. He was right.

8．What did the author think of the app at the very beginning?

A．It was magical. B．It was practically valueless.

C．It was powerful. D．It was not as good as a map.

9．What would probably make the author ignore the app’s instructions?

A．Her desire to explore alone. B．Her doubt about the new device.

C．Her preference for the new routes. D．Her refusal to experience changes.

10．What can be inferred about the author from the last paragraph?

A．She is willing to challenge herself. B．She cares little about others’ comments.

C．She recognizes her problems easily. D．She is too inflexible to make any change.

11．Which of the following can be the best title for the text?

A．Real Drivers Know Their Way B．It Pays to Take a New Route

C．New Apps Make Life Perfect D．It Matters to Listen to Inner Voice

第二节（满分20分）

48.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。

“Hey, honey!” I said, hugging my seven-year-old, Jean Prince, as she got off the bus. “How was school?” I asked her as I always did.

“Well, not so real good,” she replied, looking sad. “Everyone has their pictures on the Reading Bulletin Board (布告栏) but me. I never get my picture up, not for math or reading or anything.” Her shoulders fell suddenly, and her chin began to shake clearly.

I’d like to believe that, with enough educational treatment, visits to the doctor, experimenting with different medicines for ADHD (多动症), and drill, practice, and patience at home, I can turn my Jean into a teacher’s “dream child,” the skilled and intelligent kid who gets everything right and never colors outside the lines.

But I can’t. And every failure is yet another blow to me, as well as to Jean. Taking a deep breath, I turned on the “building self-esteem (自尊)” mode. “Well, honey, I’m sorry. But I’ll bet something good happened to you today, didn’t it? What was the best thing that you did today?” Jean took her own sweet time, thinking things through. To my relief, she wasn’t, however, on the edge of tears anymore.

Finally, she brightened a bit and said slowly, “Yes, when I passed the gate of the park, I saw a little girl who was walking with her mother and she fell down and cried because her knee bled, I hurried home and took my Barbie doll and gave it to her. She loved it and stopped crying, her mother said thanks to me and I felt good.”

“Sweetie, that’s great!” I said excitedly.

“It is you who have told me that I should be kind and learn to share good things with others,” Jean replied.

I learned that Jean had saved from her allowance (零花钱) for the past month to get that doll, which was her favorite, so I thought to myself, “I will tell all these to Mrs Doe, Jean’s teacher.”

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。

Later that night, after driving Jean home, I hurried to Mrs Doe’s. ____________________________________

____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

At 4：30 the next afternoon, Jean rushed to me happily at the school gate. ____________________________
