When John Watson leads a fitness class, he lights up. And the athletes in front of him respond (回应)in kind, often breaking into cheers. But what sets his classes apart are the students he teaches: All of them have intellectual and developmental disabilities (残障). Wellness and movement are important for this population. Individuals with these disabilities are more likely to have higher levels of fatness than the general population and face a much greater risk of many diseases.
Watson partners with programs that serve people with intellectual disabilities and Watson’s trained volunteer instructors give classes like cycling, yoga, Pilates and dance. Classes are free to the athletes, many of whom are low-income, and they’re also designed to be fit for anyone.
But helping them get fit isn’t Watson’s only goal. He wants to connect with the adults in his classes on an emotional (情绪)level. “We all want to be a part of something. They just don’t get the opportunity that often” Watson said. “We create a sense of pride, belonging and love and they’ll show up to exercise. There’s a wide range of abilities of people with intellectual and developmental disabilities. We serve that whole range. And we call everyone an athlete, no matter what their ability is.”
The work doesn’t end when class is over. Afterwards, the athletes gather at a large wall chart, known as “The Champions Board”, where they put a sticker next to their name—a public record of their attendance and hard work. Athletes earn water bottles, T-shirts or hats, based on their attendance as well as different titles, like “coach”. Every few months, athletes are recognized at a celebration. The system works. The retention rate (保留率)for participants is more than 90% and in surveys, most report that they lose weight, gain strength, and feel less lonely.
4. What do we know about John Watson’s students
A. They are kind of disabled. B. They have many diseases.
C. They are professional athletes. D. They are much fatter than others.

6. How does Watson treat his students

C. He protects them all the time. D. He makes them practice at home.
7. What is “The Champions Board” used as
A. An encouraging system. B. A standard of punishment.
C. A tool to explain courses. D. A way to help each other.
C
Pu’er is the home of the world-known tea of the same name. Since other tea-growing centers in Pu’er may have a larger output, more famous brands (品牌) and heritage surrounding the history of the Tea-horse Ancient Road, Jingmai , also in Pu’er, may not be people’s first choice to look for the best Pu’er Tea.
However, being cut off from the outside by rivers, this mountainous area has become a perfect place for an ancient planting technique, growing tea trees under forest, known as the “under-story” method, which filters (过滤) sunshine while ensuring water.
Nan Kang, former head of Mangjing village, said, “Compared to modern plantations, we’ll surely produce less tea in the ancient forest. But we have to respect our tradition and belief. Birds eat insects to protect the tea and the fallen leaves from trees provide fertilizer. Everything improves the other, but also limits each other. It is the way of nature.”
Nan is an old-time Blang leader’s grandson. Following an old leader named Pa Aileng, his ancestors (祖先) came to settle near the Jingmai Mountain centuries ago. It is believed that Pa Aileng found that tea leaves made his people recover from diseases they suffered from during their moving to other places, so the hero is also considered as a “tea ancestor”. Blang people chose a mountain to remember him. They call it Peak Aileng.
“We Blang people believe tea has its own spirit,” Nan says. “The first planted tea tree in every field is called the Tea Spirit Tree. That means the field has an owner. And the symbol also makes everyone follow moral codes and protect the plants.”
Now, this mountain of tea, also a storehouse of the time-tested traditions of local ethnic groups, attracts global attention. The Cultural Landscape of Old Tea Forests of the Jingmai Mountain in Pu’er was named as a World Heritage Site, becoming China’s 57th entry on the list.
8. What is Jingmai famous for in planting Pu’er Tea
A. A larger production. B. More famous brands.
C. Its unique planting method. D. Its transport system.
9. What can we learn about the “under-story” method from the text
A. It is widely used in Pu’er. B. It was invented by Nan Kang.
C. It follows the laws of nature. D. It makes sure to produce more tea.
10. What was tea firstly used as by Nan Kang’s ancestors
A. Main food. B. Gifts for friends.
C. Medical treatment. D. A kind of nice drink.
11. What is the best title for the text
A. The Long History of Pu’er Tea B. A Tea Planting Tradition to Treasure
C. The Main Planting Areas of Pu’er Tea D. A Mountainous Climate Fit for Pu’er Tea
D
It sounds like a math problem. How do you make one of the world’s most famous ancient sites bigger You can’t build more of it.
So with ever more tourists pouring into the site, the team behind the Archaeological(考古的)Park of Pompeii have found a plan B—dividing visitors around ancient sites that are farther, with all-in-one tickets and buses laid on between the sites.
The ancient city of Pompeii will be a scattered archaeological park, including the archaeological areas of Pompeii itself, as well as famous old houses in nearby villages or towns. The sites have already become part of the Archaeological Park of Pompeii, but until now, they have been selling their own tickets. They are also far away from each other—the park’s sites cross around 8 miles—with little public transport to some of them.
The inaccessibility(难达到)to the old houses means that visitor numbers are low. While nearly four million people visited Pompeii itself in 2019, only 55,000 made it to see House A, which is thought to have been owned by the emperor Nero and his second wife. Only 52,000 went as far as the two houses at Stabiae, House Arianna and House San Marco. But visitor numbers to Pompeii rose from under 2.7 million in 2014 to over 3.9 million by 2019. In July 2023, a record 21, 141 people visited the park in a single day.
A bus service around the sites—the Pompeii Artebus—was started in 2021. Tickets for the connected sites will be acceptable for three days, with free buses connecting all the sites.
12. How is the Archaeological Park of Pompeii made bigger
A. By building more of it. B. By improving the service.
C. By connecting nearby sites. D. By attracting more tourists.
13. What does the underlined word “scattered” in paragraph 3 probably mean
A. Narrow. B. Private. C. Impressive. D. Spread-out.
14. What can be learned about Pompeii itself from paragraph 4
A. It has lost its attraction. B. It was rebuilt in 2019.
C. It is free for visitors all the time. D. It is overcrowded with visitors.
15. What does the text mainly talk about
A. The Archaeological Park of Pompeii getting bigger.
B. The ancient Pompeii bringing in modern transport.
C. The Archaeological Park of Pompeii getting more popular.
D. The ancient houses in Pompeii changing their tickets.

47. 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。
I was the village bad boy because I had no interest in school or studies. I used bad language, hung around with other “bad” boys, skipped school and ran through the fields. When I wasn’t playing, I’d help my parents on our cashew farm. Our cashew farm was like a big forest garden.
Who’d want to go to school anyway No one thought I would do anything worthwhile with my life. And I’d heard many people in our village talking, “Why bother (费心) going to school These kids end up back on the farms anyway. He’ll never achieve anything.”
My mother saw a different future. She was illiterate (不识字的) but knew the value of education to create a better life. When I refused to go to school, she beat me until I dressed and put on my shoes. She’d follow me right up to the door of the classroom and watch me enter.
This bad boy image troubled me. I didn’t believe I was a bad boy, and I didn’t want to be a bad boy. My parents and teachers were disappointed at my average marks. I did not have any money. No one in the village gave me respect.
These realizations forced me to think that my mother was right — education was my only way out. I worked hard to graduate and decided to apply for higher studies in university. But this village bad boy faced too many challenges.
Firstly, I had very limited money, and my parents probably couldn’t afford the fees (学费). Besides that, my grades were poor. There was very little chance I’d enter a university. Still, I took a chance and applied. Days went by, and nothing. I checked to see if my name was there for admission (准许进入). No. I wasn’t admitted. Weeks went by. I continued to check. Still nothing. It looked like I would never lose my village bad boy image unless a miracle (奇迹) happened.
注意:1.续写词数应为150个左右;
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
The miracle did happen
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
A teacher of the university saw me sitting there sad and asked, “What is wrong ”

When John Watson leads a fitness class, he lights up. And the athletes in front of him respond (回应)in kind, often breaking into cheers. But what sets his classes apart are the students he teaches: All of them have intellectual and developmental disabilities (残障). Wellness and movement are important for this population. Individuals with these disabilities are more likely to have higher levels of fatness than the general population and face a much greater risk of many diseases.
Watson partners with programs that serve people with intellectual disabilities and Watson’s trained volunteer instructors give classes like cycling, yoga, Pilates and dance. Classes are free to the athletes, many of whom are low-income, and they’re also designed to be fit for anyone.
But helping them get fit isn’t Watson’s only goal. He wants to connect with the adults in his classes on an emotional (情绪)level. “We all want to be a part of something. They just don’t get the opportunity that often,” Watson said. “We create a sense of pride, belonging and love and they’ll show up to exercise. There’s a wide range of abilities of people with intellectual and developmental disabilities. We serve that whole range. And we call everyone an athlete, no matter what their ability is.”
The work doesn’t end when class is over. Afterwards, the athletes gather at a large wall chart, known as “The Champions Board”, where they put a sticker next to their name—a public record of their attendance and hard work. Athletes earn water bottles, T-shirts or hats, based on their attendance as well as different titles, like “coach”. Every few months, athletes are recognized at a celebration. The system works. The retention rate (保留率)for participants is more than 90% and in surveys, most report that they lose weight, gain strength, and feel less lonely.
4. What do we know about John Watson’s students
A. They are kind of disabled. B. They have many diseases.
C. They are professional athletes. D. They are much fatter than others.
5. What does paragraph 2 say about John Watson’s classes
A. They are designed for competition. B. They are easy to learn.
C. They are of a single form. D. They are highly thought of.
6. How does Watson treat his students
A. He is strict with them. B. He considers them equal.
C. He protects them all the time. D. He makes them practice at home.
7. What is “The Champions Board” used as
A. An encouraging system. B. A standard of punishment.

Pu’er is the home of the world-known tea of the same name. Since other tea-growing centers in Pu’er may have a larger output, more famous brands (品牌) and heritage surrounding the history of the Tea-horse Ancient Road, Jingmai , also in Pu’er, may not be people’s first choice to look for the best Pu’er Tea.
However, being cut off from the outside by rivers, this mountainous area has become a perfect place for an ancient planting technique, growing tea trees under forest, known as the “under-story” method, which filters (过滤) sunshine while ensuring water.
Nan Kang, former head of Mangjing village, said, “Compared to modern plantations, we’ll surely produce less tea in the ancient forest. But we have to respect our tradition and belief. Birds eat insects to protect the tea and the fallen leaves from trees provide fertilizer. Everything improves the other, but also limits each other. It is the way of nature.”
Nan is an old-time Blang leader’s grandson. Following an old leader named Pa Aileng, his ancestors (祖先) came to settle near the Jingmai Mountain centuries ago. It is believed that Pa Aileng found that tea leaves made his people recover from diseases they suffered from during their moving to other places, so the hero is also considered as a “tea ancestor”. Blang people chose a mountain to remember him. They call it Peak Aileng.
“We Blang people believe tea has its own spirit,” Nan says. “The first planted tea tree in every field is called the Tea Spirit Tree. That means the field has an owner. And the symbol also makes everyone follow moral codes and protect the plants.”
Now, this mountain of tea, also a storehouse of the time-tested traditions of local ethnic groups, attracts global attention. The Cultural Landscape of Old Tea Forests of the Jingmai Mountain in Pu’er was named as a World Heritage Site, becoming China’s 57th entry on the list.
8. What is Jingmai famous for in planting Pu’er Tea
A. A larger production. B. More famous brands.
C. Its unique planting method. D. Its transport system.
9. What can we learn about the “under-story” method from the text
A. It is widely used in Pu’er. B. It was invented by Nan Kang.
C. It follows the laws of nature. D. It makes sure to produce more tea.
10. What was tea firstly used as by Nan Kang’s ancestors
A. Main food. B. Gifts for friends.
C. Medical treatment. D. A kind of nice drink.
11. What is the best title for the text
A. The Long History of Pu’er Tea B. A Tea Planting Tradition to Treasure
C. The Main Planting Areas of Pu’er Tea D. A Mountainous Climate Fit for Pu’er Tea
【答案】8. C 9. C 10. C 11. B

【11题详解】
主旨大意题。根据首段中的“Since other tea-growing centers in Pu’er may have a larger output, more famous brands (品牌) and heritage surrounding the history of the Tea-horse Ancient Road, Jingmai, also in Pu’er, may not be people’s first choice to look for the best Pu’er Tea.(由于普洱的其他茶叶种植中心可能有更大的产量,更多的知名品牌和围绕茶马古道历史的遗产,同样在普洱的景迈可能不是人们寻找最好的普洱茶的首选)”可知,本段引出在普洱的景迈生产的普洱茶,结合第二段“However, being cut off from the outside by rivers, this mountainous area has become a perfect place for an ancient planting technique, growing tea trees under forest, known as the “under-story” method, which filters (过滤) sunshine while ensuring water.(然而,由于河流与外界隔绝,这个山区已经成为一种古老种植技术的理想之地,这种技术被称为“林下茶”种植方法,可以在过滤阳光的同时保证水分)”可知,本段引出了景迈有一种独特的种植普洱茶的技术,即“林下茶”种植技术,结合下文中介绍的景迈普洱茶的种植技术是基于保护气候、地形特征和山区人民文化习俗之间的社会关系和生态相互依存关系的种茶技术。由此可知,文章主要讲述了一种茶叶种植传统。“A Tea Planting Tradition to Treasure(值得珍惜的茶叶种植传统)”与本文的内容一致,且可以概括本文的主题,适合作为最佳标题。故选B项。

It sounds like a math problem. How do you make one of the world’s most famous ancient sites bigger You can’t build more of it.
So with ever more tourists pouring into the site, the team behind the Archaeological(考古的)Park of Pompeii have found a plan B—dividing visitors around ancient sites that are farther, with all-in-one tickets and buses laid on between the sites.
The ancient city of Pompeii will be a scattered archaeological park, including the archaeological areas of Pompeii itself, as well as famous old houses in nearby villages or towns. The sites have already become part of the Archaeological Park of Pompeii, but until now, they have been selling their own tickets. They are also far away from each other—the park’s sites cross around 8 miles—with little public transport to some of them.
The inaccessibility(难达到)to the old houses means that visitor numbers are low. While nearly four million people visited Pompeii itself in 2019, only 55,000 made it to see House A, which is thought to have been owned by the emperor Nero and his second wife. Only 52,000 went as far as the two houses at Stabiae, House Arianna and House San Marco. But visitor numbers to Pompeii rose from under 2.7 million in 2014 to over 3.9 million by 2019. In July 2023, a record 21, 141 people visited the park in a single day.
A bus service around the sites—the Pompeii Artebus—was started in 2021. Tickets for the connected sites will be acceptable for three days, with free buses connecting all the sites.
12. How is the Archaeological Park of Pompeii made bigger
A. By building more of it. B. By improving the service.
C. By connecting nearby sites. D. By attracting more tourists.
13 What does the underlined word “scattered” in paragraph 3 probably mean
A. Narrow. B. Private. C. Impressive. D. Spread-out.
14. What can be learned about Pompeii itself from paragraph 4
A. It has lost its attraction. B. It was rebuilt in 2019.
C. It is free for visitors all the time. D. It is overcrowded with visitors.
15. What does the text mainly talk about
A. The Archaeological Park of Pompeii getting bigger.
B. The ancient Pompeii bringing in modern transport.
C. The Archaeological Park of Pompeii getting more popular.
D. The ancient houses in Pompeii changing their tickets.

【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述74岁的上海人陈幸芝退休后再追求她梦想中的“工作”,把儿时制作香囊的爱好变成了如今成功的事业。
【36题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:这位74岁的上海人把儿时制作香包的爱好变成了今天成功的事业。本句谓语为has turned,此处应用非谓语动词,应用make“制作”的动名词形式,作of的宾语。故填making。
【37题详解】
考查形容词。句意:陈的曾祖父是一名传统的中医,每年端午节前,她的祖母都会给孩子们制作装满中药粉末的小包,这是中国古代的传统。分析句子结构可知,本空填形容词traditional“传统的”,作定语,修饰Chinese doctor。故填traditional。
【38题详解】

【40题详解】
考查动词语态。句意:现在据说这些草药对人们的健康有好处。根据句意及now可知,本句陈述事实,故时态用一般现在时,且主语the herbs与动词say为被动关系,故用一般现在时的被动语态,且主语为复数形式,be动词用are。故填are said。

【答案】Dear Alex,
I am glad to know that you are interested in Chinese and want to improve it by reading Dream of the Red Chamber, but I think it is not suitable for you.
Although Dream of the Red Chamber is a classic novel, the language in it is too difficult, and many of the sentences in it are not suitable for use in daily life. For beginners, it is not only difficult but also impractical. I think you should read some children’s books, preferably illustrated ones, where the language is easy and the pictures can help you guess the meaning. Also you can watch some cartoons in Chinese.
I hope these suggestions are useful to you.
Yours,
Li Hua

第二节(满分25分)
47. 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。
I was the village bad boy because I had no interest in school or studies. I used bad language, hung around with other “bad” boys, skipped school and ran through the fields. When I wasn’t playing, I’d help my parents on our cashew farm. Our cashew farm was like a big forest garden.
Who’d want to go to school anyway No one thought I would do anything worthwhile with my life. And I’d heard many people in our village talking, “Why bother (费心) going to school These kids end up back on the farms anyway. He’ll never achieve anything.”
My mother saw a different future. She was illiterate (不识字的) but knew the value of education to create a better life. When I refused to go to school, she beat me until I dressed and put on my shoes. She’d follow me right up to the door of the classroom and watch me enter.
This bad boy image troubled me. I didn’t believe I was a bad boy, and I didn’t want to be a bad boy. My parents and teachers were disappointed at my average marks. I did not have any money. No one in the village gave me respect.
These realizations forced me to think that my mother was right — education was my only way out. I worked hard to graduate and decided to apply for higher studies in university. But this village bad boy faced too many challenges.
Firstly, I had very limited money, and my parents probably couldn’t afford the fees (学费). Besides that, my grades were poor. There was very little chance I’d enter a university. Still, I took a chance and applied. Days went by, and nothing. I checked to see if my name was there for admission (准许进入). No. I wasn’t admitted. Weeks went by. I continued to check. Still nothing. It looked like I would never lose my village bad boy image unless a miracle (奇迹) happened.
注意:1.续写词数应为150个左右;
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
The miracle did happen.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
A teacher of the university saw me sitting there sad and asked, “What is wrong ”
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】One possible version:
The miracle did happen. For the last time, I visited the university to check admissions. I looked down the list, and there my name was. Finally, I’d been admitted! However, a brief moment of overjoy was followed by despair — I did not have enough money for the fees. When the time to register came, I went to the university nervously. I didn’t know anyone in that new city. Head in hands, I sat down on the seat outside the office, considering that my dreams of higher education would finish there.
A teacher of the university saw me sitting there sad and asked, “What is wrong ” As soon as he heard the name of my village, he paid my fees. He explained he was also from the same region and knew the difficulties I had faced to reach this stage. From then on, my life changed. My parents were so happy and proud that their village bad boy had made good. There’s a saying, “Learn to build your house with the bricks others have thrown at you.” Never give up your hope.
