A
This idea is unkind. Children need to have a good holiday at the end of a busy school year. The long holidays give them time to do things they wouldn’t otherwise(不然) get to do. In my family we go to Ireland and see relatives and friends during the summer vacation. And it might seem long to some people, but time flies when you’re having fun.
—Ruby Mullin
I have good memories of my own long summer holidays, and I love the chance to have days out with my son. I think many parents, especially single parents like me, have made job choices based on being able to have time off for the summer—and now we’ve done that, we don’t want to see things changed.
—Viki Bantock
Having worked at a school that had a four-week summer break instead of the usual six I’d say longer holidays are better. Teachers are under so much stress now to get good results; most put in lots of hours in the evening and at weekends and feel very tired by the end of term. There is no progress in learning after a six-week holiday, but it only takes a few weeks for students to get back up to speed.
—Marek Kaminski
A shorter summer holiday would be much better. The six-week break seems a thing for another age, when mothers didn’t work and your mum lived round the corner to give you a hand. If I was able to take a six-week holiday, great, I’d love it—but in the real world that isn’t possible. Instead, I end up spending around ￡600 on childcare for each week when I’m working.
—Nachelle Crowther

Two weeks ago, a 5-year-old girl named Sunshine Oelfke emptied out her piggy bank (存钱罐) onto the living room floor and started counting. Her grandmother, Jackie Oelfke, thought she was playing as she carefully lined up the coins. But then she saw the girl put the coins in her backpack.
“What are you doing with that money ” Jackie asked her granddaughter.
“I’m taking it to school,” Sunshine replied. “I’m going to take it for milk money. My friend Layla doesn’t get milk—her mom doesn’t have milk money and I do.”
Jackie’s heart melted at Sunshine’s words. Choked (哽咽) with strong feelings, Jackie held her sweet granddaughter tightly in her arms.
Last week, Jackie and Sunshine met with her teacher, Rita Hausher, and handed her the $30 the girl had saved. There are 20 kids in Sunshine’s class and about half don’t get milk. It costs $ 0.45 a carton (纸盒). The total adds up to about $180 a month for every child in the class to have milk every day.
After dropping Sunshine off at school, Jackie posted a video on Facebook to explain her granddaughter’s plan. To her surprise, many people offered to donate toward the cause. Within a week, Jackie raised more than $1,000. Now every student in Sunshine`s class can get free milk for the rest of the year.
Jackie said Sunshine doesn’t see her kind act as a big deal. She was just trying to look out for her friends. “She doesn’t understand the influence she’s brought about,” Jackie said. “But now she knows she can do whatever she puts her heart to.”
4. Why did Sunshine empty her piggy bank
A. She hoped to show off her savings in class. B. She needed to train her counting skills.

A. Small Coins, Big Changes B. Jackie’s Piggy Bank
C. Piggy Bank and Carton Milk D. A Moved Grandmother
C
A new trend called “praise groups” or “in-need-of-praise” chat groups has become popular on Chinese social media. In Chinese culture, where modesty (谦逊) is valued, openly seeking and giving praise is uncommon. These chat groups provide a platform for people to receive compliments (赞扬) and encouragement, which are often lacking in their daily lives.
To join a praise group, users can pay a fee on e-commerce sites, starting at 50 yuan for five minutes of compliments. The group members will then show the person with praises and kind words. The compliments can be designed for a friend or loved one as well. Participants have found that being praised by strangers can help lift their spirits and improve their self-confidence.
For example, Meng Zha, a student at Shanghai’s Tongji University, tried the service and found it amusing and uplifting. She received compliments on her appearance and even quotes (引用) from popular songs. Ms Meng couldn’t help but laugh at the compliments and expressed her desire to post such high-quality praises in the future.
Praise groups have appeared as a way for people in China to seek and receive compliments and encouragement that may be lacking in their daily lives. It provides a positive and uplifting experience for participants, improving a sense of happiness and self-worth.
Those who support the groups, see them as an antidote to extremely bad moods (情绪) which are often associated with things happening on the Internet. “At first, the purpose of this group is to make us learn to praise others and accept others’ praises confidently. Here we can drop everything, and use our heart to praise and support others,” one member said. But the life journey is long and there are some unexpected situations that we can only count on ourselves to face when there is no one out there to offer help.
8. What is the purpose of praise groups
A. To make praise popular. B. To have everyone supported.
C. To share common interests. D. To give people hope and happiness.
9. What can we learn about Meng Zha in paragraph 3
A. She was not strong enough. B. She was under working stress.
C. She was satisfied with the service. D. She was a gifted singer in her area.
10. What does the underlined word “antidote” mean in the last paragraph
A. A way of making new friends. B. A kind of medicine.
C. A method of being confident. D. The wisdom of solving problems.
11. What is the author's attitude to praise groups
A. Objective. B. Critical. C. Supportive. D. Unclear.
D
People will tell you the only way to really learn a language is to completely immerse(浸入)yourself in a country where that language is spoken. Not all language learners, of course, will have the opportunity to spend some time in an immersion environment. But if you can't actually fly across the world to learn a new language, you can always create an immersion environment where you can talk to native speakers.
That's where Babbel comes in. Babbel is one of the most popular language learning apps on the market for studying new languages at your own pace. The app emphasises real-life conversational skills, so you won't be stopped by grammatical structures and verb patterns.
And right now, you can get 15%off a lifetime subscription (订阅)to Babbel Language Learning（$150; ）.A lifetime subscription is huge when it comes to getting the most out of the app, since you'll be able to return to lessons time and time again and brush up on whichever section or topic you might need.
So how does it all work First, you'll choose one of the 14 languages. While Babbel offers familiar languages like Spanish and Italian, it also offers less commonly studied ones like Polish, Indonesian and more. Once you pick your language, you'll choose a wide range of real-life topics. Each course takes about 10 to 15 minutes, so you can pick one up on the way to work, during your lunch break, or really at any point you have some time to kill.
Beyond this, Babbel includes a ton of additional features tailored to making sure you learn the language in a real, practical and accurate way. The app uses speech recognition technology to make sure your pronunciation is accurate compared with how native speakers would say certain words.
12. What does Paragraph 1 mainly tell us

47. 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写一段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
My little brother is a five-year-old boy named Tex. When it comes to being funny and lovable, he is the best. But when it comes to keeping secrets, he is the worst!
It just so happened that my parents’ wedding anniversary was near Valentine’s Day (情人节), and they planned to celebrate by going away for a couple of days. But at the last minute, my dad came home from work with bad news.
“I’m afraid our trip will have to wait. The shop assistant has the flu, so there will be no one to manage the grocery store if we go.”
“It’s OK,” my mom said, biting her lip. “We’ll have lots more anniversaries to celebrate.”
That was when I came up with the idea to surprise my parents with an extra-special cake. Luckily, the grandmother of my good friend Ollie, a very generous person who lives right next door, was an amazing baker with a kitchen full of most of the stuff you need to make a yummy valentine-anniversary cake.
I called Ollie if she and her grandmother could help me make a valentine-anniversary cake. I wanted to surprise Mom and Dad after dinner tonight. As usual, Ollie was happy to help me. Then, I asked my mother if I could go to Ollie’s and promised I would be back soon. Once I had my mom’s permission, I looked for perfect ingredients (原料) and a perfect heart-shaped pan just to make my cake more interesting and tasty. As I packed all the things I needed, I noticed Tex was glued to TV, which I thought was a perfect opportunity to leave secretly.
As I went out for Ollie’s, Tex stopped me, asking where I was going. I whispered to him I was going to make a cake for Mom and Dad’s anniversary. He wanted to join in. “You can stay here and make cards. But remember, we won’t say a single thing about the cake until after dinner.” I said seriously. He nodded without hesitation. Ollie’s grandmother was extremely helpful, who helped me make a beautiful valentine-anniversary cake, and I brought it home secretly.
注意：
1.续写词数应为100左右；
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
I was about to hide the cake in the kitchen when Tex yelled, “Mom”.

The six-week break seems a thing for another age, when mothers didn’t work and your mum lived round the corner to give you a hand.(一个更短的暑假会更好。六周的假期似乎是另一个时代的事情，那时母亲不工作，你的母亲住在附近，给你帮助)”可知，Nachelle Crowther认为短的暑假会更好，即她与其他人三人的看法不一样。故选D项。

Two weeks ago, a 5-year-old girl named Sunshine Oelfke emptied out her piggy bank (存钱罐) onto the living room floor and started counting. Her grandmother, Jackie Oelfke, thought she was playing as she carefully lined up the coins. But then she saw the girl put the coins in her backpack.
“What are you doing with that money ” Jackie asked her granddaughter.
“I’m taking it to school,” Sunshine replied. “I’m going to take it for milk money. My friend Layla doesn’t get milk—her mom doesn’t have milk money and I do.”
Jackie’s heart melted at Sunshine’s words. Choked (哽咽) with strong feelings, Jackie held her sweet granddaughter tightly in her arms.
Last week, Jackie and Sunshine met with her teacher, Rita Hausher, and handed her the $30 the girl had saved. There are 20 kids in Sunshine’s class and about half don’t get milk. It costs $ 0.45 a carton (纸盒). The total adds up to about $180 a month for every child in the class to have milk every day.
After dropping Sunshine off at school, Jackie posted a video on Facebook to explain her granddaughter’s plan. To her surprise, many people offered to donate toward the cause. Within a week, Jackie raised more than $1,000. Now every student in Sunshine`s class can get free milk for the rest of the year.
Jackie said Sunshine doesn’t see her kind act as a big deal. She was just trying to look out for her friends. “She doesn’t understand the influence she’s brought about,” Jackie said. “But now she knows she can do whatever she puts her heart to.”
4. Why did Sunshine empty her piggy bank
A. She hoped to show off her savings in class. B. She needed to train her counting skills.
C. She wanted to play with the coins. D. She planned to pay for her friend’s milk.
5. How did Jackie feel upon hearing Sunshine’s words
A. Annoyed. B. Touched. C. Curious. D. Proud.
6. In Jackie’s eyes, what did Sunshine learn from the experience
A. Two heads are better than one. B. A friend in need is a friend indeed.
C. Nothing is impossible to a willing heart. D. There’s no such thing as a free lunch.
7. What is the best title for this passage
A. Small Coins Big Changes B. Jackie’s Piggy Bank
C. Piggy Bank and Carton Milk D. A Moved Grandmother
【答案】4 D 5. B 6. C 7. A
【解析】

【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中的“I’m going to take it for milk money. My friend Layla doesn’t get milk—her mom doesn’t have milk money and I do.(我要把它当牛奶钱。我的朋友Layla没有牛奶——她妈妈没有牛奶钱，而我有)”可知，Sunshine清空自己的存钱罐是打算帮朋友付牛奶钱。故选D。
【5题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段“Jackie’s heart melted at Sunshine’s words. Choked (哽咽) with strong feelings, Jackie held her sweet granddaughter tightly in her arms.(听到Sunshine的话，Jackie的心都融化了。强烈的感情让她哽咽，Jackie紧紧地把她惹人喜爱的孙女抱在怀里)”可推测出，Sunshine的话让Jackie非常感动。故选B。
【6题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中Jackie的话“But now she knows she can do whatever she puts her heart to.(但现在她知道自己可以做任何她用心想做的事)”可知，在Jackie看来，只要Sunshine用心去做，她可以做到任何她想做的事情。由此可推测出，Sunshine从这次经历中学到的是“心之所愿，无事不成”。故选C。

But then she saw the girl put the coins in her backpack.(两周前，一个名叫Sunshine Oelfke的5岁女孩把她的存钱罐倒在客厅地板上，并立即开始数。她在仔细排列硬币时，她的祖母Jackie Oelfke以为她在玩，但后来她看到这个女孩把这些硬币放在背包里)”、第三段中的“I’m going to take it for milk money. My friend Layla doesn’t get milk—her mom doesn’t have milk money and I do.(我要把它当牛奶钱。我的朋友Layla没有牛奶——她妈妈没有牛奶钱，而我有。)”和倒数第二段中的“To her surprise, many people offered to donate toward the cause. Within a week, Jackie raised more than $1,000. Now every student in Sunshine`s class can get free milk for the rest of the year.(令她惊讶的是，许多人主动为这项事业捐款。在一周内，Jackie筹到了1000多美元。现在Sunshine班上的每个学生都可以在今年剩下的时间里免费获得牛奶。)”并结合全文可知，Jackie的孙女Sunshine用自己攒的钱帮朋友交牛奶费，Jackie在网上发布了关于这件事的视频后引发了连锁反应，许多人积极捐款，现在班里的每个孩子都能免费喝上牛奶。Sunshine积攒的小小硬币最终引起了巨大的变化，所以A项“小硬币，大变化”最适合作本文标题。故选A。

A new trend called “praise groups” or “in-need-of-praise” chat groups has become popular on Chinese social media. In Chinese culture, where modesty (谦逊) is valued, openly seeking and giving praise is uncommon. These chat groups provide a platform for people to receive compliments (赞扬) and encouragement, which are often lacking in their daily lives.
To join a praise group, users can pay a fee on e-commerce sites, starting at 50 yuan for five minutes of compliments. The group members will then show the person with praises and kind words. The compliments can be designed for a friend or loved one as well. Participants have found that being praised by strangers can help lift their spirits and improve their self-confidence.
For example, Meng Zha, a student at Shanghai’s Tongji University, tried the service and found it amusing and uplifting. She received compliments on her appearance and even quotes (引用) from popular songs. Ms Meng couldn’t help but laugh at the compliments and expressed her desire to post such high-quality praises in the future.
Praise groups have appeared as a way for people in China to seek and receive compliments and encouragement that may be lacking in their daily lives. It provides a positive and uplifting experience for participants, improving a sense of happiness and self-worth.
Those who support the groups, see them as an antidote to extremely bad moods (情绪) which are often associated with things happening on the Internet. “At first, the purpose of this group is to make us learn to praise others and accept others’ praises confidently. Here we can drop everything, and use our heart to praise and support others,” one member said. But the life journey is long and there are some unexpected situations that we can only count on ourselves to face when there is no one out there to offer help.
8. What is the purpose of praise groups
A. To make praise popular. B. To have everyone supported.
C. To share common interests. D. To give people hope and happiness.
9. What can we learn about Meng Zha in paragraph 3
A. She was not strong enough. B. She was under working stress.
C. She was satisfied with the service. D. She was a gifted singer in her area.
10. What does the underlined word “antidote” mean in the last paragraph
A. A way of making new friends. B. A kind of medicine.
C. A method of being confident. D. The wisdom of solving problems.
11. What is the author's attitude to praise groups
A. Objective. B. Critical. C. Supportive. D. Unclear.
【答案】8. D 9. C 10. B 11. A
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一种叫作“夸夸群”的交流形式在中国社交媒体上流行起来。这些聊天群提供了一个平台，让人们能够得到赞美和鼓励。
【8题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第一段“These chat groups provide a platform for people to receive compliments (赞扬) and encouragement, which are often lacking in their daily lives.(这些聊天群为人们提供了一个接受赞美和鼓励的平台，而这些在日常生活中往往是缺乏的)”和第四段“Praise groups have appeared as a way for people in China to seek and receive compliments and encouragement that may be lacking in their daily lives. It provides a positive and uplifting experience for participants, improving a sense of happiness and self-worth.(夸夸群的出现，是中国人寻求和接受日常生活中可能缺乏的赞美和鼓励的一种方式。它为参与者提供了积极向上的体验，提高了幸福感和自我价值感。)”可知，夸夸群旨在给人们带来希望和快乐。故选D。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第三段“Ms Meng couldn’t help but laugh at the compliments and expressed her desire to post such high-quality praises in the future.(看到这些赞美，孟忍不住笑了，并表示希望以后也能发布这样高质量的赞美)”可推知，Meng对夸夸群的服务是满意的。故选C。
【10题详解】
词句猜测题。根据画线词上文“Those who support the groups, see them as an(那些支持这些组织的人，把他们看作是一个)”以及后文“to extremely bad moods (情绪) which are often associated with things happening on the Internet(到极端糟糕的情绪，这通常与互联网上发生的事情有关)”可知，那些支持praise groups的人认为它们是一种药物，可以消除与互联网上发生的事情相关联的极度不好的情绪。故画线词意思是“一种药”。故选B。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“But the life journey is long and there are some unexpected situations that we can only count on ourselves to face when there is no one out there to offer help.(但是人生的旅程是漫长的，当没有人提供帮助的时候，我们只能依靠自己来面对一些意想不到的情况。)”可知，作者对夸夸群的态度既没有反对，也没有支持，只是客观地做了评价。A. Objective客观的；B. Critical批判的；C. Supportive支持的；D. Unclear不清楚的。故选A。

People will tell you the only way to really learn a language is to completely immerse(浸入)yourself in a country where that language is spoken. Not all language learners, of course, will have the opportunity to spend some time in an immersion environment.

That's where Babbel comes in. Babbel is one of the most popular language learning apps on the market for studying new languages at your own pace. The app emphasises real-life conversational skills, so you won't be stopped by grammatical structures and verb patterns.

Beyond this, Babbel includes a ton of additional features tailored to making sure you learn the language in a real, practical and accurate way. The app uses speech recognition technology to make sure your pronunciation is accurate compared with how native speakers would say certain words.

【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了西汉时期出土的一个文物：长信宫灯。
【36题详解】
考查冠词。句意：长信宫灯是一件无价之宝，被认为是“中国第一盏灯”。表示“一件无价之宝”，invaluable首字母的发音为元音音素。 故填an。
【37题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：镀金的青铜灯的形状是一个跪在地上拿着灯的女仆。分析句子结构可知，空处为非谓语动词，hold与a maid在逻辑上是主动关系，所以用现在分词。故填holding。

考查定语从句。句意：句意：令人惊讶的是，这盏灯利用了虹吸原理，烟灰通过女仆的右臂流入她的身体，那里储存着水。先行词为body，在定语从句中作地点状语，关系副词为where。故填where。
【41题详解】

【42题详解】
考查时态语态。句意：2022年北京冬奥会火灯的设计灵感来自长信宫灯。主语The 2022 Beijing Winter Olympic Flame Lantern与谓语为被动关系，可以表示陈述现在的事实，也可以陈述过去的事实，所以本句为一般现在的被动语态或者一般过去时的被动语态。故填was inspired/is inspired。

47. 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写一段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
My little brother is a five-year-old boy named Tex. When it comes to being funny and lovable, he is the best. But when it comes to keeping secrets, he is the worst!
It just so happened that my parents’ wedding anniversary was near Valentine’s Day (情人节), and they planned to celebrate by going away for a couple of days. But at the last minute, my dad came home from work with bad news.
“I’m afraid our trip will have to wait. The shop assistant has the flu, so there will be no one to manage the grocery store if we go.”
“It’s OK,” my mom said, biting her lip. “We’ll have lots more anniversaries to celebrate.”
That was when I came up with the idea to surprise my parents with an extra-special cake. Luckily, the grandmother of my good friend Ollie, a very generous person who lives right next door, was an amazing baker with a kitchen full of most of the stuff you need to make a yummy valentine-anniversary cake.
I called Ollie if she and her grandmother could help me make a valentine-anniversary cake. I wanted to surprise Mom and Dad after dinner tonight. As usual, Ollie was happy to help me. Then, I asked my mother if I could go to Ollie’s and promised I would be back soon. Once I had my mom’s permission, I looked for perfect ingredients (原料) and a perfect heart-shaped pan just to make my cake more interesting and tasty. As I packed all the things I needed, I noticed Tex was glued to TV, which I thought was a perfect opportunity to leave secretly.
As I went out for Ollie’s, Tex stopped me, asking where I was going. I whispered to him I was going to make a cake for Mom and Dad’s anniversary. He wanted to join in. “You can stay here and make cards. But remember, we won’t say a single thing about the cake until after dinner.” I said seriously. He nodded without hesitation. Ollie’s grandmother was extremely helpful, who helped me make a beautiful valentine-anniversary cake, and I brought it home secretly.
注意：
1.续写词数应为100左右；

【答案】范文
I was about to hide the cake in the kitchen when Tex yelled, “Mom”. Tex waved his cards and shouted “Surprise!” “No,” I said “Not yet!” Right then, my mom rushed in and asked what was going on. “We won’t tell you about the cake!” said Tex innocently. “I was trying to give you and dad the perfect anniversary surprise,”I explained, “but the youngest of this family just ruined everything.’’ “We don’t care if it’s a surprise.” said my mom delightedly. “It’s the thought that counts, and you just made our day.” I looked at my mother’s smile and felt warm in my heart. Tex came running over and hugged my legs and Mom’s, smiling happily. Although the plan was disrupted, this unexpected surprise made us appreciate each other’s company and love even more.
