He hurried around the room, touching everything he could reach. I followed, attempting to intercept (拦截) him before he reached the hallway. He approached the front desk and knocked over all the papers on the table. I assisted him firmly in collecting them. I sensed eyes watching me, judging my parenting skills.
I should have realised that arriving so early would not have been wise. It was my mistake to arrive early, as the long wait was difficult for my child. I kept searching my bag and found a ball, which finally attracted him. A couple waited for their child. They stared at me and my son, and I heard the words “out of control”. I could feel my face flush red. I wanted to tell them that my son has a disability and that he`s not being bad; he`s just having trouble waiting. I sat down and watched him play with the ball, and I tried my best not to cry.
The instructor called the group together, and my son went off to play sports with the other five-year-olds. I prayed that this time he would follow the rules. I closed my eyes and wished him to be okay.
“He`ll be fine.” I opened my eyes and looked beside me. “He`ll do great. You are doing great. You are a great mom. I can see it in all that you do for him,” a lady sat on my right said.
She told me about her brother and her parents and all that her mom did for her brother over the years. She told me about how he turned out great, got a job and lives on his own now. We sat and talked, and I felt the tension leave my body.
Before I knew it, the doors opened, and all the kids ran out, including my own, filled with excitement and pride. “I did it!” he exclaimed. I picked him up. I turned to thank the lady, but she was gone.

Family vlogging—the frequent recording and uploading of personal videos of the family, usually on video sharing website—has become big business nowadays, especially among parents of young children. The more viewers such videos can get, the more money the family can make. At first thought, it does seem like an easy way to make money. However, are we doing right by putting their lives up for public attention
For one thing, as the children grow up, they increasingly become aware that what they do needs to be admirable enough for the public to enjoy—Being young children, they also would want to do whatever it takes to please others. They then feel the pressure to be perfect, and as that is something not always possible, they become anxious and ments from viewers and the expectations of sponsors (赞助者) can also affect the parents` reactions towards their children.
Another problem is the lack of privacy in the children`s lives. As the children reach adolescence, there is a greater need for personal space. At 12 or 13, very few children would appreciate being filmed while eating or having a conversation with their friends. Teenhood is a time of significant change in an individual, both physically and emotionally, and is a time when parents need to protect their children and guide them, instead of exposing them to the eyes of the public.
Family vlogging can be irresistible, given how it allows parents to bring greater fun to their family lives. There is also the easy money and the fame to look forward to. Indeed, all would probably go well, but only as long as parents keep in mind that, if not managed well, making their children live their lives in the unforgiving eyes of the public could prove to be a big mistake.
8、How does vlogging about children`s lives influence the family
A. Children will get used to public attention.
B. Children may suffer from too much pressure.
C. Parents may show no concern for their children.
D. Parents become addicted to exposing their children to the public.
9、How does the writer mainly develop his argument
A. By providing examples B. By listing numbers
C. By making comparisons D. By analyzing causes
10、What`s the writer`s purpose of writing the text
A. To introduce a new big business
B. To show how vlogging influence people`s lives.
C. To persuade parents to watch out for comments from viewers.
D. To convince parents of the danger of vlogging about children`s lives.
11、What`s the writer`s attitude to vlogging about children`s lives
A. negative B. positive C. neutral D. uninterested
Sending a thumbs-up (竖起拇指) can be seen as passive aggressive, according to Gen Z (those born between 1995 and 2009) who say they feel attacked whenever it is used. Whether the chat is informal, between friends or at work the symbol appears to have a very different, ‘rude’ meaning for the younger generation.
A 24-year-old on Reddit summed up the Gen Z argument, saying it is best ‘never used in any situation’ as it is ‘hurtful’. “No one of my age in the office does it, but the Gen X (those born between 1966 and 1980) people always do it. Take me a bit to adjust and get it out of my head that it means they're mad at me,” he added. Other young people agreed it is bad form, especially at work where it can make the team appear unfriendly and not easygoing.
“My last workplace had a WhatsApp chat for our team to send information to each other on, and most of the people on there just replied with a thumbs up. I don't know why but it seemed a little bit hostile to me,” one woman said. One Reddit user also said the thumbs up actually means that “I’ve read your message and have nothing to add and I hope and pray … all the people in this group chat have nothing to say on it too.”
Older workers appear confused by the reaction, saying they use the thumbs up in work-related chats to show “I agree” or “I understood and will follow.”
Part of the issue is that young people tend to use the thumbs-up in jokes. Barry Kennedy, 24, he said he only used it to communicate with older people like his parents or older colleagues. A survey of 2,000 people conducted by Perspectus Global showed that a majority of people between the ages of 16 and 29 believe that you are “officially old” if you use thumbs-up or heart emoji.
12、Which of the following point is not the Gen Z’s understanding of the emoji thumbs-up
A. Being rude. B. Being agreeable. C. Being hurtful. D. Being unfriendly.
13、What does the underlined word “hostile” mean in paragraph 3
A. Unfriendly and aggressive. B. Tough and difficult.
C. Unwanted and unacceptable. D. Strange and unusual.
14、Why can’t older workers understand the young’s reaction to the thumbs-up emoji
A. Because of their poor communication skill.
B. Because of their being old with worse memory.
C. Because of their less communicating with the young.
D. Because of their different understanding of the emoji.
15、Which is the most suitable title for the text
A. The Thumbs-up Emoji: Rejected by the younger generation.
B. The Thumbs-up Emoji: Highly Welcomed by ‘Old People’.
C. The Thumbs-up Emoji: A Sign of Generation Gap.
D. The Thumbs-up Emoji: A Sign of Being Aggressive.

六、读后续写
34、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。
After a hard day`s work, I usually go shopping in the nearby commercial center to relieve my tiredness.
Last Monday, I was in the commercial center as usual and I decided to go and get a cup of coffee. As I was making my way to the coffee shop. I noticed an old gentleman rather poorly dressed sitting on a bench nearby. I knew from first sight that he was in need of some kind of help. He had a little lunch laid out in front of him and was wholeheartedly enjoying it. It was also rather obvious that he had a problem with his right eye and probably couldn`t see out of it. I then joined the line and waited to be served.
Then one thing that made me unforgettable happened. There was a young man in front of me in the line who was also waiting to be served. The next thing I knew was that the young man handed the server a twenty-dollar bill and requested an orange juice, as well as a favour. The server looked at the young man, a little confused, not fully understanding the request.
“Please help me give the juice to the old gentleman eating his lunch outside on the bench, as well as the change from the 20 dollars,” the young man said to the server.
At that time, the server hesitated for a moment and said, “I am a little scared for his behavior and appearance.”
“Don`t worry. I have the confidence that he is a kind and warm-heated gentleman. He is just in need of some kind of help and has a problem with his right eye and probably couldn`t see out of it. I will be watching every second so that you will be completely safe at all times,” the young man added.
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。
Then the server approached the old gentleman slowly. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
I wondered there must be some reason for the young man not to do the act of kindness himself.

解析:这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了甘肃省山丹县当地政府最近建立的一个 3D 数据库项目, 该项目是甘肃省首批长城数字化保护项目之一, 为遗产保护和研究提供了新的途径。
①考查副词。句意: 为了更好地保护长城, 甘肃省山丹县政府最近建立了一个 3D 数据库, 用于绘制长城的数字地图。分析句式结构可知, 此处修饰 map, map 在句中作动词, 所以此处要用副词来修饰动词。故填 digitally。
②考查非谓语动词。句意: 该数据库包含通过无人机 (UAV) 和空中遥感技术收集的所有信息, 并生成几段长城的毫米级高精度 3D 图像。分析句式结构可知, collect 与其逻辑主语是动宾关系, 所以此处要用过去分词作后置定语。故填故填 collected。
③考查名词单复数。句意: 同上。image 意为“图像”时是可数名词, 前面没有限定词, 所以此处要用该词的复数形式。故填 images。
④考查定语从句。句意:山丹段绵延 200 多公里,大部分建于汉代或明朝,被认为保存完好。分析句式结构可知, 本句是非限制性定语从句, 先行词指物, 关系代词在从句中作主语, 所以此处要填 which。故填 which。
⑤考查语态。句意: 同上。分析句子可知, consider 与 stretches 并列, 在句中作谓语, 与主语是动宾关系, 所以要用被动语态; 又因为 and 连接的两个谓语动词时态保持一致, 所以此处要用一般现在时的被动语态。故填 is considered。
⑥考查时态。句意: 在过去的几年里, 当地政府实施了几个项目来恢复峡口段, 并于 2021 年启动了数字化项目。根据本句的时间状语 During the past years 可知, 此处时态要用现在完成时。故填 has carried。
⑦考查冠词。句意: 同上。此处指第一段中提到的数字化项目, 所以要用定冠词表特指。故填 the。
⑧考查非谓语动词。句意: 技术团队使用无人机摄影和遥感测绘技术拍摄了长城及其周边地区的照片, 分析句式结构可知, 此处要用不定式作目的状语。故填 to take。
⑨考查非谓语动词。句意: 技术团队使用无人机摄影和遥感测绘技术拍摄了长城及其周边地区的照片, 覆盖面积约25平方公里。分析句式结构可知, cover 与其逻辑主语是主谓关系, 所以此处要用现在分词作状语。故填 covering。
⑩考查介词。句意: 数字化的优势在于它可以打破时间和空间的限制, 让用户有足够的机会了解资源丰富的历史文化内涵。分析句意可知, 此处用介词 to 构成固定搭配 access to sth 意为“做某事的途径”。故填to。
33、答案:
Dear Peter,
I`m happy to hear from you. Just as you`ve learned, artificial intelligence is now widely used in China. Here I`d like to share with you what I experienced during the National Day holiday.
First of all, wherever and whenever we went, we could use the mobile payment. More interestingly, we no longer had to get into tourist attractions with the ID card. We could do it through a face recognition app now, which really saved time so that we didn`t have to wait in a queue. What an amazing experience!
I do hope you can come to China and experience all of this when you have spare time. Looking forward to your coming.
Yours,
Li Hua
34、答案:
Then the server approached the old gentleman slowly. “Hello, the orange juice and the money for you,” the server said with a little cautiousness. Hearing that, the old gentleman was very surprised at the unexpected event. Knowing what had happened, he took them with a big smile, stood up and bowed to the server and the young man. The server felt relaxed immediately and talked happily with the old gentleman. The young man smiled happily. The old gentleman showed great gratitude to them again after drinking the juice.
I wondered there must be some reason for the young man not to do the act of kindness himself. From the young man`s behavior, I suspected that deep down in his heart he was hoping that this act of kindness might inspire others to do something for the old gentleman as well and inspire others to do something when the same things happen around us. Absolutely beautiful! From then on, I made up my mind to let the chain of love pass on and help someone who needs help whenever and wherever possible. Only in this way could more and more people help each other in the future.
