Here are 4 books you should read at least once in your life.
Number the Stars by Lois
It tells the story of a Danish girl growing up in World War II with her best friend, Ellen, who happens to be Jewish. When she learns about the horrors that the Nazis are imposing on the Jewish people, she and her family stop at nothing to protect Ellen and countless other Jews. Lois’ novel is a powerful reminder that cultural and religious differences are no divide between true friends.
The Little Prince by Antoine
It is the story of a little boy who falls to Earth from an Asteroid (小行星) after visiting several other asteroids to try to understand mankind. In his travels he meets a series of strange and delightful characters and an untamed fox. The Little Prince is a heartwarming tale of the power of friendship and trust.
Charlotte’s Web by E. B. White
Who doesn’t love a novel about talking animals It opens the door to imagination, asking us to imagine what a world where animals could talk would be like. On a more serious note, it challenges us to ask ourselves how we’d treat animals if they could talk. If they could tell us their joys and their fears, would mankind treat them more humanely
To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee
The story centers on Jean Louise Finch, an unusually intelligent girl who ages from six to nine years old during the novel. Her father, Atticus Finch, a well-known and respected lawyer, defends Tom Robinson, an African American who is falsely accused of killing a young white woman. It is both a young girl’s coming-of-age story and a darker drama about the roots and consequences of racism and prejudice in society.
1. What do the two books Number the Stars and The Little Prince both involve
A. History. B. Travel. C. Friendship. D. Family.

An immersive and slow-paced Citywalk is becoming trendy across China. In contrast to rushing past overcrowded tourist landmarks, the new trend has emerged as a popular alternative to explore bustling markets, ancient streets, and charming alleys at a leisurely pace.
The appeal of Citywalk caters particularly to the younger generation often caught up in demanding work schedules. As evidenced by the increasing popularity of hash tags like “City walk for vacation” on lifestyle sharing platform Xiaohong shu, with a staggering 465 million views and nearly 464, 600 engagements, the trend is truly capturing unbelievable attention.
Citywalk, or meandering through the urban landscapes, means the act of walking freely along city streets unburdened by exhaustive plans. It offers people an avenue to intimately experience urban culture and local traditions. Citywalk is not merely about sightseeing. It creates an opportunity for social interactions and deep connections with the cities. Citywalk routes are tailored to the specific interests of both out-of-town tourists and locals. For tourists, the focus is on sharing local customs and traditions, while for locals, discussions revolve around the city’s past, present, and future. The growing trend of Citywalk reflects a changing attitude towards life, embracing a warmer, more relaxed, and slower-paced lifestyle.
As Citywalk expands beyond first-tier cities like Beijing, Shanghai, and Guangzhou, to second-and third-tier cities across the county, it brings fresh opportunities for the tourism industry, in such areas as dining, shopping, and accommodation.
Governments in Beijing and Shandong have recognized the potential of Citywalk, incorporating it into their action plans to promote cultural tourism and leisure activities. In Shanghai, public bus lines specially designed have been introduced to elevate the overall Citywalk for participants.
“By slowing down and delving into the narrow alleys, observing the lives of city residents, and immersing oneself in the context of museums and art galleries, one is entitled to embrace the pleasure of life,” said Luo Jun, a cultural tourism enthusiast.
4. What’s the main reason for the popularity of Citywalk among young people
A. It mainly focuses on urban sightseeing.
B. Social media offer many tempting videos.
C. Busywork schedule limits the choice of people.
D. Conventional tourist landmarks are losing charm.
5. What’s the meaning of underlined word “staggering” in the second paragraph
A. Astonishing. B. Rewarding. C. Embarrassing. D. Shrinking.
6. Which of the following statements is NOT Citywalk
A. An immersive route for foreigners to enjoy the alleys in Chengdu.
B. A holiday travel to hurriedly visit crowded landmarks in Shanghai.
C. A free walk including visiting museums and old towns in Qingdao.
D. A leisurely tour along Qiantang River to experience city transformation.
7. What have some governments done to promote Citywalk
A Facilities in the museums have been enhanced.
B. Cooperation has been strengthened among cities.
C. Opportunities have been offered to third-tier cities.
D. Specific public transportation routes have been introduced.
【答案】4. C 5. A 6. B 7. D
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇新闻报道。文章报道了沉浸式的慢节奏城市漫步正在中国成为一种时尚。
【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“The appeal of Citywalk caters particularly to the younger generation often caught up in demanding work schedules. (城市漫步的吸引力尤其迎合了经常被繁忙的工作日程所困的年轻一代。)”可知，城市漫步在年轻人中流行的主要原因是繁忙的工作日程限制了人们的选择。故选C项。
【5题详解】
词句猜测题。划线词句后半部分“the trend is truly capturing unbelievable attention (这一趋势确实吸引了令人难以置信的关注)”说明这一趋势引起的广泛关注令人难以置信，从而推知划线部分“As evidenced by the increasing popularity of hash tags like ‘City walk for vacation’ on lifestyle sharing platform Xiaohong shu, with a staggering 465 million views and nearly 464, 600 engagements(生活方式分享平台小红书上的‘城市漫步度假’等标签越来越受欢迎，阅读量达到了staggering 4.65亿次，参与量接近46.64万次)”其中划线词汇意思是“难以置信的，令人惊讶的”。故选A项。
【6题详解】
推理判断题。通读全文，并根据第一段“An immersive and slow-paced Citywalk is becoming trendy across China. In contrast to rushing past overcrowded tourist landmarks, the new trend has emerged as a popular alternative to explore bustling markets, ancient streets, and charming alleys at a leisurely pace. (沉浸式的慢节奏城市漫步正在中国成为一种时尚。与匆匆走过拥挤的旅游地标不同，这种新趋势已经成为一种流行的选择，人们可以悠闲地探索繁华的市场、古老的街道和迷人的小巷。)”可知，城市漫步不包括“匆忙游览上海拥挤的地标的假日旅行”。故选B项。
【7题详解】
细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中“In Shanghai, public bus lines specially designed have been introduced to elevate the overall Citywalk for participants. (在上海，专门设计的公交线路为参与者提升了整个城市漫步。)”可知，一些政府为了促进城市漫步引入了特定的公共交通路线。故选D项。
C
There are many differences in ways of thinking between East and West. Many of them are reflected in daily behaviour. In particular, Chinese people sometimes attach more importance to their appearance and social status than to their inner qualities, while Westerners think the opposite. However, Socrates (Ancient Greek philosopher) and Confucius share significant similarities that are universal.
Both philosophers share several teachings in common; for example, their understanding of the nature of knowledge and their opinions on education. Socrates believed “There is only one good, knowledge;and only one evil, ignorance.” Similarly, Confucius said, “Isn’t it a pleasure to study and practice what you have learned ” But both also acknowledge the limits of knowledge. Socrates said: “All I know is that I know nothing.” Similarly, Confucius said, “When you know a thing, to hold you know it; when you don’t know a thing, to allow you don’t know it-this is knowledge.”
However, there are important differences in their understanding of morality. Confucius believed each person should follow certain regulations according to virtue(德行). Everyone should play their role in a society where people are interdependent in order to achieve harmony in the whole society. For instance, when asked how to govern a country, Confucius stated “An emperor should act like an emperor, a subject should act like a subject.” Socrates, however, places self-knowledge over social knowledge.
Another difference between them is their attitude towards political domination(支配). Confucius believed the best way to govern a country isn’t through legal system, but through virtue. Socrates, by contrast, declared that “nothing is more important than justice”.
Why have East and West developed such different cultural values A widely accepted theory holds that Eastern civilization was an agricultural civilization. Hence the need for a collective society and friendly relations with neighbors was strong. Western civilization, however, was nomadic(游牧的). Their mobility makes them less dependent on society after migration.
In spite of their differences, the two cultures have more in common than differences. The shared concern for moral values in the teachings of Socrates and Confucius also shows us more fundamental similarities between Eastern and Western cultures in their pursuit of virtuous lives.
8. What do the two philosophers share about knowledge
A. The learning of knowledge is easy. B. The learning of knowledge is endless.
C. A man without knowledge is foolish. D. A man shall not pretend to understand.
9. Which of the following reflects the thoughts of Confucius in terms of morality
A. Nothing is more important than a legal system.
B. I am not a Chinese, but a citizen of the world.
C. Not everyone should play his own role in society.
D. A man does what is proper to the position he is in.
10. What is the root cause of the differences between Eastern and Western cultural values
A. The difference in political atmosphere. B. The difference in the length of history.
C. The difference in economic development. D. The difference in levels of social dependency.
11. What is the passage mainly about
A. Reasons for similarities of Eastern and Western cultures.
B. The introduction of great figures of two different cultures.
C. Comparisons of the thoughts of the two great philosophers.
D. The contributions of two great philosophers to civilization.
【答案】8. B 9. D 10. D 11. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文本主要在对比东西方两位哲学家思想的不同与共同之处。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第二段的“But both also acknowledge the limits of knowledge. Socrates said: “All I know is that I know nothing.” Similarly, Confucius said, “When you know a thing, to hold you know it; when you don’t know a thing, to allow you don’t know it-this is knowledge.”(但两者也都承认知识的局限性。苏格拉底说:“我所知道的就是我一无所知。”孔子也说过：“知其事，持其事；当你不知道一件事的时候，允许你不知道它——这就是知识。”)”可知，两个哲学家认为知识的学习是无止境的。故选B。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。从第三段的“Everyone should play their role in a society where people are interdependent in order to achieve harmony in the whole society. For instance, when asked how to govern a country, Confucius stated “An emperor should act like an emperor, a subject should act like a subject.”(每个人都应该在人与人相互依存的社会中发挥自己的作用，以实现整个社会的和谐。例如，当被问及如何治理一个国家时，孔子说:“皇帝应该像皇帝一样，臣民应该像臣民一样。”)”可知，孔子的思想即“君君臣臣，父父子子”，每个人根据自己所处的位置扮演好自己的角色。D项“A man does what is proper to the position he is in.(一个人会做与他所处的地位相称的事。)”合乎题意。故选D。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第五段“Why have East and West developed such different cultural values A widely accepted theory holds that Eastern civilization was an agricultural civilization. Hence the need for a collective society and friendly relations with neighbors was strong. Western civilization, however, was nomadic(游牧的). Their mobility makes them less dependent on society after migration.(为什么东西方发展出如此不同的文化价值观 一个广为接受的理论认为东方文明是一种农业文明。因此，建立集体社会和与邻国建立友好关系的必要性非常强烈。然而，西方文明是游牧文明。他们的流动性使他们在移民后对社会的依赖程度降低。)”可知，东西方价值观的差异最本质的原因是社会依赖程度的不同。故选D。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。根据文章第一段“There are many differences in ways of thinking between East and West. Many of them are reflected in daily behaviour.(东西方在思维方式上有许多不同之处。其中许多都反映在日常行为中)”以及文章的最后一段“In spite of their differences, the two cultures have more in common than differences. The shared concern for moral values in the teachings of Socrates and Confucius also shows us more fundamental similarities between Eastern and Western cultures in their pursuit of virtuous lives.(尽管存在差异，但这两种文化的共同点多于不同点。苏格拉底和孔子的教义中对道德价值的共同关注也向我们展示了东西方文化在追求美德生活方面的更多基本相似之处。)”以及全文可知，文本主要在对比东西方两位哲学家思想的不同与共同之处。故选C。
D
The first apes evolved 20 million years ago in the forests where they would go up a tree to get their food, and then come back down to move on to the next tree. Getting out of a tree presents all kinds of new challenges. Big apes can’t afford to fall because it could kill or badly injure them. Natural selection would have favored those with body structures that allowed them to descend safely.
Dartmouth researchers report in the journal Royal Society Open Science that apes probably evolved free-moving shoulders and flexible elbows to slow their descent from trees as gravity pulled on their heavier bodies. These flexible body parts passed on from ancestral apes would have allowed early humans to climb trees at night for safety and comedown in the daylight unhurt. When early humans transitioned from forests to open savannas (热带稀树草原), flexible shoulders and elbows were crucial for gathering food and using tools for hunting and defense.
The researchers used sports analysis and statistical software to study how primates(灵长目动物) like chimpanzees and small monkeys called mangabeys climbed in the wild. They found that chimps and mangabeys scaled(攀爬) trees similarly, with shoulders and elbows mostly bent close to the body. When descending, however, chimpanzees extended their arms above their heads to hold on to branches, much like a person using a ladder, to counteract(抵消) their heavier weight pulling them downward.
Luke Fannin, the lead author of the study, emphasized that their findings highlight the importance of “down climbing” in the evolution of apes and early humans. He explained, “Our research introduces the idea that down climbing played a significant role in shaping the structural differences between monkeys and apes, which eventually manifested in humans.”
“Our field has thought about apes climbing up trees for a long time, but we’ve been ignoring the second half of this behavior,” said Professor Jeremy DeSilva, “The findings are among the first to identify the significance of “down climbing” in the evolution of apes and early humans.
12. According to paragraph 1, apes would have been favored by natural selection if .
A. they have sufficient food resources.
B. they come down from trees securely.
C. they master skills of climbing up trees.
D. they cure themselves when they’re injured.
13. What is paragraph 3 mainly about
A. The similarity of two primates in tree climbing
B. The evolution of two primates’ adaptation to nature.
C. The analysis of primates’ tree scaling and descending
D. The application of different research methods and tools.
14 Which of the following statement might DeSilva agree with
A. Descending trees has been neglected by researchers for a long time.
B. The study is the first to recognize the significance of down climbing
C. The evolution of apes and early humans is a result of down climbing.
D. Studies on climbing down trees are more likely to have new findings.
15. What is the best title of the passage
A. Chimpanzees and Mangabeys: Researches in Natural Settings
B. Apes and Humans: A Comparative Study of Climbing up Trees
C Shoulders and Elbows: Evolved as Brakes for Downclimbing Apes
D. Apes’ Climbing Strategies: How to Use Different Body Parts Flexibly
【答案】12. B 13. C 14. A 15. C
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。主要介绍了有关猿类爬树和下树的实验研究，说明了肩膀和肘部在猿类下树过程中发挥的重要作用，强调了研究猿类下树过程的重要性。
【12题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段最后三句“Getting out of a tree presents all kinds of new challenges. Big apes can’t afford to fall because it could kill or badly injure them. Natural selection would have favored those with body structures that allowed them to descend safely.”（从树上爬下来会带来各种各样的新挑战。大猿不能摔倒，因为它可能会杀死或严重伤害它们。自然选择倾向于那些身体结构允许它们安全降落的动物。）可知，自然选择倾向于那些身体结构允许它们安全降落的动物，如果大猿能安全的从树上爬下来而不受伤害，也会受到自然选择的青睐。故选B项。
【13题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第三段第一句“They found that chimps and mangabeys scaled(攀爬) trees similarly, with shoulders and elbows mostly bent close to the body. When descending, however, chimpanzees extended their arms above their heads to hold on to branches, much like a person using a ladder, to counteract(抵消) their heavier weight pulling them downward.”（他们发现，黑猩猩和白眉猴爬上树的方式相似，肩膀和肘部大多弯曲，接近身体。然而，当黑猩猩下降时，它们会将手臂伸过头顶，抓住树枝，就像人类使用梯子一样，以抵消它们较重的体重对它们的向下拉力。）可知，本段主要分析了灵长类动物爬树和下树技能。故选C项。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段第一句“Our field has thought about apes climbing up trees for a long time, but we’ve been ignoring the second half of this behavior”（长期以来，我们的研究领域一直在研究猿类爬树的行为，但我们一直忽略了这种行为的后半部分。）可知，DeSilva认为长期以来，猿类下树行为一直被研究人员所忽视。故选A项。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第三段最后两句句“They found that chimps and mangabeys scaled trees similarly, with shoulders and elbows mostly bent close to the body. When descending, however, chimpanzees extended their arms above their heads to hold on to branches, much like a person using a ladder, to counteract their heavier weight pulling them downward.”（他们发现，黑猩猩和白眉猴爬上树的方式相似，肩膀和肘部大多弯曲，接近身体。然而，当黑猩猩下树时，它们会将手臂伸过头顶，抓住树枝，就像人类使用梯子一样，以抵消它们较重的体重对它们的向下拉力。）及第四段第一句“Luke Fannin, the lead author of the study, emphasized that their findings highlight the importance of “down climbing” in the evolution of apes and early humans.”（该研究的主要作者Luke Fannin强调，他们的发现强调了“向下攀登”在类人猿和早期人类进化中的重要性。）并结合文章内容可知，本文主要介绍了有关猿类爬树和下树的实验研究，说明了肩膀和肘部在猿类下树过程中发挥的重要作用。所以短文的最佳标题为“肩膀和肘部:进化为猿下树的刹车”故选C项。

【36题详解】
考查连词。句意：虽然中国的饺子已经传遍了世界各地，煎饼可能是中国保守得最好的烹饪秘密了。分析句子结构可知，空处需填连词，根据句意可知，前后构成让步关系，故用表示让步关系的连词Although或Though或While，表示“尽管，即使”。故填Although或Though或While。
【37题详解】
考查名词。句意：每个社区都有自己的煎饼小贩，从黎明到上午10点左右供应早餐，满足了上班路上饥饿的当地人。根据“hungry”可知，空处需填名词，local作名词，表示“当地人”，此处不止一个当地人，故用名词复数。故填locals。

【39题详解】
考查动词不定式。句意：为了保持煎饼的酥脆，煎饼从来不会提前做好，所以排队等候是中国文化的一部分。分析句子结构可知，句中已有谓语动词“is cooked”，故空处需填非谓语动词，根据句意可知，煎饼从来不会提前做好是为了保持煎饼的酥脆，故用动词不定式作目的状语。故填To preserve。
【40题详解】

【42题详解】
考查冠词。句意：模仿这道小吃的挑战之一是，不同地区甚至不同摊主的煎饼食谱都不一样。根据“challenge”可知，空处需填冠词，此处指“模仿这道小吃的挑战”，表示特指，用定冠词。故填the。
【43题详解】
考查形容词。句意：许多人认为，没有几个月的练习和师傅的指导，自己做煎饼是不可能的。根据“Many consider it”可知，空处需填形容词作宾补，根据句意可知，此处表示“不可能的”。故填impossible。
【44题详解】
考查时态语态。句意：然而，有几个坚定的外国人成功了，他们在上世纪80年代第一次品尝中国煎饼后，受到启发，将煎饼带给了一位饥饿的观众。分析句子结构可知，“who ____9_____ to bring Jianbing to a hungry audience after their first taste in China back in the 1980s”是定语从句，缺谓语动词，描述过去的事情用一般过去时，先行词是复数名词“foreigners”，和“inspire”是被动关系，故用一般过去时被动语态。故填were inspired。
【45题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：在英国，梅梅街头小推车的老板梅莉莎和奥利弗·傅先把煎饼的乐趣带到伦敦，现在又把煎饼的乐趣带到曼彻斯特，尽管他们在完善他们的技术方面遇到了很多困难。根据“in”可知，空处需填动名词作宾语。故填perfecting。

A Four-legged Guardian Angel
Snow had just melted off the ground that April day at our house in Regina Beach. I had just cleaned up the pool in preparation for selling the house. The year before, I had lost my job, and now our financial situation was depressing. Finally, I had put the home on the market. Even worse, I would have to give up my beloved Great Dane (大丹犬), Brigitte, because I could no longer afford the cost of feeding it. The thought of losing the dog and our beautiful home was almost more than I could bear.
Deep in discouragement, I sat typing up my application letters. Out of the corner of my eye I could see my thirteen-month-old son, Forrest, as he lay on the carpet, playing near our big, gentle Brigitte. It seemed as if Brigitte was always meant to be in this family and she turned out to be a perfect companion.
Brigitte came to our house on Christmas eve when the doorbell rang and I was sure some of my Christmas packages had arrived. I ran to the door but no one was there. I sensed something and looked down, only to find a beautiful Great Dane sitting there, looking up at me with big, intelligent eyes. Perhaps, someone had found the puppy somewhere and left her there, and then rang the doorbell and ran away. They accurately guessed I would welcome an additional family member and take care of her.
Thinking of these, I couldn’t help sighing and went straight back to work. However, I hadn’t typed more than two sentences when Brigitte began barking and running back and forth to the sliding glass door overlooking our pool.
I raced to see what was happening and noticed that the sliding door was slightly open. Suddenly, I realized Forrest was nowhere to be seen. In panic, I opened the door and ran outside.
注意：
1. 所续写短文的词数应为150左右；
2. 请按如下格式答题卡相应位置作答。
There I was surprised to see Brigitte, who was terrified of water, dive into the pool.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Finally, the doctor said Forrest was all right and could be released from hospital.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】参考范文1：
There I was surprised to see Brigitte, who was terrified of water, dive into the pool. Breathless and astonished, I watched Brigitte mustering her courage to swim towards my son, who was struggling desperately in the icy water. Almost meanwhile, I sprang into action. With every powerful stroke, I got close to where Forrest was floating. Fortunately, he was about to sink when I grabbed him by the arm and dragged him to the shallow end of the pool, with Brigitte paddling alongside, concern obvious in her big and intelligent eyes. The moment I got my boy out, our beloved dog bounced around him, constantly licking his pale face as if to warm him. Voice trembling, I called 911 and soon we were rushed to the nearest hospital. Every second counted!
Finally, the doctor said Forrest was all right and could be released from hospital. At this, I heaved a sigh of relief. On arriving home, our dog Brigitte leaped high up to give us warm and wet kisses, wagging her tail cheerfully. Looking directly into her eyes with gratitude and a bit of guilt, I scooped her up and held her close to my chest, unwilling to let her go for a single minute. It was then that I suddenly became aware that life sometimes can be cruel and miserable, but there was always someone or something guiding you, protecting you, and accompanying you with unconditional love and loyalty. Our dog was just our guardian angel, shattering my despair about losing our home and guiding us out of trouble. How could I leave her
参考范文2：
There I was surprised to see Brigitte, who was terrified of water, dive into the pool. Then to my horror, I caught sight of Forrest’s yellow sleeper. Brigitte was bravely doing her best to keep him afloat by holding on to his sleeper with her mouth. At the same time, she was desperately trying to swim to the shallow end. Only then did I realize that Forrest had somehow opened the door, wandered out and fallen into the pool. In a split second, I dove in, lifted my precious baby out and carried him inside. Hands shaking, I called 911 and we were rushed to the hospital immediately, where the doctor kept him for observation for one night.
Finally, the doctor said Forrest was all right and could be released from hospital. Back home, once Brigitte saw him, she barked with apparent joy and wouldn’t let Forrest out of her sight. In time she settled down, but remained dedicated to Forrest and followed him everywhere, concerned about his safety. Even when Forrest was asleep, Brigitte crammed herself under the crib, keeping a vigil. Our dog was indeed an angel, erasing any despair I might have had about losing our home. A house could always be replaced, but knowing we had each other around was the greatest blessing of all. I was grateful she was part of our lives, who I would never give up.

An immersive and slow-paced Citywalk is becoming trendy across China. In contrast to rushing past overcrowded tourist landmarks, the new trend has emerged as a popular alternative to explore bustling markets, ancient streets, and charming alleys at a leisurely pace.
The appeal of Citywalk caters particularly to the younger generation often caught up in demanding work schedules. As evidenced by the increasing popularity of hash tags like “City walk for vacation” on lifestyle sharing platform Xiaohong shu, with a staggering 465 million views and nearly 464, 600 engagements, the trend is truly capturing unbelievable attention.
Citywalk, or meandering through the urban landscapes, means the act of walking freely along city streets unburdened by exhaustive plans. It offers people an avenue to intimately experience urban culture and local traditions. Citywalk is not merely about sightseeing. It creates an opportunity for social interactions and deep connections with the cities. Citywalk routes are tailored to the specific interests of both out-of-town tourists and locals. For tourists, the focus is on sharing local customs and traditions, while for locals, discussions revolve around the city’s past, present, and future. The growing trend of Citywalk reflects a changing attitude towards life, embracing a warmer, more relaxed, and slower-paced lifestyle.
As Citywalk expands beyond first-tier cities like Beijing, Shanghai, and Guangzhou, to second-and third-tier cities across the county, it brings fresh opportunities for the tourism industry, in such areas as dining, shopping, and accommodation.
Governments in Beijing and Shandong have recognized the potential of Citywalk, incorporating it into their action plans to promote cultural tourism and leisure activities. In Shanghai, public bus lines specially designed have been introduced to elevate the overall Citywalk for participants.
“By slowing down and delving into the narrow alleys, observing the lives of city residents, and immersing oneself in the context of museums and art galleries, one is entitled to embrace the pleasure of life,” said Luo Jun, a cultural tourism enthusiast.
4. What’s the main reason for the popularity of Citywalk among young people
A. It mainly focuses on urban sightseeing.
B. Social media offer many tempting videos.
C. Busywork schedule limits the choice of people.
D. Conventional tourist landmarks are losing charm.
5. What’s the meaning of underlined word “staggering” in the second paragraph
A. Astonishing. B. Rewarding. C. Embarrassing. D. Shrinking.
6. Which of the following statements is NOT Citywalk
A. An immersive route for foreigners to enjoy the alleys in Chengdu.
B. A holiday travel to hurriedly visit crowded landmarks in Shanghai.
C A free walk including visiting museums and old towns in Qingdao.
D. A leisurely tour along Qiantang River to experience city transformation.
7. What have some governments done to promote Citywalk
A. Facilities in the museums have been enhanced.
B. Cooperation has been strengthened among cities.
C. Opportunities have been offered to third-tier cities.
D. Specific public transportation routes have been introduced.
C
There are many differences in ways of thinking between East and West. Many of them are reflected in daily behaviour. In particular, Chinese people sometimes attach more importance to their appearance and social status than to their inner qualities, while Westerners think the opposite. However, Socrates (Ancient Greek philosopher) and Confucius share significant similarities that are universal.
Both philosophers share several teachings in common; for example, their understanding of the nature of knowledge and their opinions on education. Socrates believed “There is only one good, knowledge;and only one evil, ignorance.” Similarly, Confucius said, “Isn’t it a pleasure to study and practice what you have learned ” But both also acknowledge the limits of knowledge. Socrates said: “All I know is that I know nothing.” Similarly, Confucius said, “When you know a thing, to hold you know it; when you don’t know a thing, to allow you don’t know it-this is knowledge.”
However, there are important differences in their understanding of morality. Confucius believed each person should follow certain regulations according to virtue(德行). Everyone should play their role in a society where people are interdependent in order to achieve harmony in the whole society. For instance, when asked how to govern a country, Confucius stated “An emperor should act like an emperor, a subject should act like a subject.” Socrates, however, places self-knowledge over social knowledge.
Another difference between them is their attitude towards political domination(支配). Confucius believed the best way to govern a country isn’t through legal system, but through virtue. Socrates, by contrast, declared that “nothing is more important than justice”.
Why have East and West developed such different cultural values A widely accepted theory holds that Eastern civilization was an agricultural civilization. Hence the need for a collective society and friendly relations with neighbors was strong. Western civilization, however, was nomadic(游牧的). Their mobility makes them less dependent on society after migration.
In spite of their differences, the two cultures have more in common than differences. The shared concern for moral values in the teachings of Socrates and Confucius also shows us more fundamental similarities between Eastern and Western cultures in their pursuit of virtuous lives.

10. What is the root cause of the differences between Eastern and Western cultural values
A. The difference in political atmosphere. B. The difference in the length of history.
C. The difference in economic development. D. The difference in levels of social dependency.
11. What is the passage mainly about
A. Reasons for similarities of Eastern and Western cultures.
B. The introduction of great figures of two different cultures.
C. Comparisons of the thoughts of the two great philosophers.
D. The contributions of two great philosophers to civilization.
D
The first apes evolved 20 million years ago in the forests where they would go up a tree to get their food, and then come back down to move on to the next tree. Getting out of a tree presents all kinds of new challenges. Big apes can’t afford to fall because it could kill or badly injure them. Natural selection would have favored those with body structures that allowed them to descend safely.
Dartmouth researchers report in the journal Royal Society Open Science that apes probably evolved free-moving shoulders and flexible elbows to slow their descent from trees as gravity pulled on their heavier bodies. These flexible body parts passed on from ancestral apes would have allowed early humans to climb trees at night for safety and comedown in the daylight unhurt. When early humans transitioned from forests to open savannas (热带稀树草原), flexible shoulders and elbows were crucial for gathering food and using tools for hunting and defense.
The researchers used sports analysis and statistical software to study how primates(灵长目动物) like chimpanzees and small monkeys called mangabeys climbed in the wild. They found that chimps and mangabeys scaled(攀爬) trees similarly, with shoulders and elbows mostly bent close to the body. When descending, however, chimpanzees extended their arms above their heads to hold on to branches, much like a person using a ladder, to counteract(抵消) their heavier weight pulling them downward.
Luke Fannin, the lead author of the study, emphasized that their findings highlight the importance of “down climbing” in the evolution of apes and early humans. He explained, “Our research introduces the idea that down climbing played a significant role in shaping the structural differences between monkeys and apes, which eventually manifested in humans.”
“Our field has thought about apes climbing up trees for a long time, but we’ve been ignoring the second half of this behavior,” said Professor Jeremy DeSilva, “The findings are among the first to identify the significance of “down climbing” in the evolution of apes and early humans.
12. According to paragraph 1, apes would have been favored by natural selection if .
A they have sufficient food resources.
B. they come down from trees securely.
C. they master skills of climbing up trees.
D. they cure themselves when they’re injured.
13. What is paragraph 3 mainly about
A. The similarity of two primates in tree climbing
B. The evolution of two primates’ adaptation to nature.
C. The analysis of primates’ tree scaling and descending
D. The application of different research methods and tools.
14. Which of the following statement might DeSilva agree with
A. Descending trees has been neglected by researchers for a long time.
B. The study is the first to recognize the significance of down climbing
C The evolution of apes and early humans is a result of down climbing.
D. Studies on climbing down trees are more likely to have new findings.
15 What is the best title of the passage
A. Chimpanzees and Mangabeys: Researches in Natural Settings
B. Apes and Humans: A Comparative Study of Climbing up Trees
C. Shoulders and Elbows: Evolved as Brakes for Downclimbing Apes
D. Apes’ Climbing Strategies: How to Use Different Body Parts Flexibly

A Four-legged Guardian Angel
Snow had just melted off the ground that April day at our house in Regina Beach. I had just cleaned up the pool in preparation for selling the house. The year before, I had lost my job, and now our financial situation was depressing. Finally, I had put the home on the market. Even worse, I would have to give up my beloved Great Dane (大丹犬), Brigitte, because I could no longer afford the cost of feeding it. The thought of losing the dog and our beautiful home was almost more than I could bear.
Deep in discouragement, I sat typing up my application letters. Out of the corner of my eye I could see my thirteen-month-old son, Forrest, as he lay on the carpet, playing near our big, gentle Brigitte. It seemed as if Brigitte was always meant to be in this family and she turned out to be a perfect companion.
Brigitte came to our house on Christmas eve when the doorbell rang and I was sure some of my Christmas packages had arrived. I ran to the door but no one was there. I sensed something and looked down, only to find a beautiful Great Dane sitting there, looking up at me with big, intelligent eyes. Perhaps, someone had found the puppy somewhere and left her there, and then rang the doorbell and ran away. They accurately guessed I would welcome an additional family member and take care of her.
Thinking of these, I couldn’t help sighing and went straight back to work. However, I hadn’t typed more than two sentences when Brigitte began barking and running back and forth to the sliding glass door overlooking our pool.
I raced to see what was happening and noticed that the sliding door was slightly open. Suddenly, I realized Forrest was nowhere to be seen. In panic, I opened the door and ran outside.
注意：
1. 所续写短文的词数应为150左右；
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡相应位置作答。
There I was surprised to see Brigitte, who was terrified of water, dive into the pool.

Finally, the doctor said Forrest was all right and could be released from hospital.
