A few years ago, I was an English professor, and I asked my students to finish a paper during the holiday. Mike, one of my students, came to class without it. He explained that his safe (保险柜)had been stolen by a worker who was repairing his house. His notebook computer was in the safe, where his paper was. I was sure that he didn’t tell a lie because he had been a really good student.
Then over the two weeks, Mike started to show up to class looking very tired. He said that he was on a hunt for the guy who stole his safe, and he was spending late nights with his cousin driving around looking for the thief because they knew his car. They wanted to find the thief and get the safe back because his living expenses were in it besides the paper.
Then Mike rewrote the paper and turned it in. It wasn’t up to his usual quality, and he still kept coming to class looking like he hadn’t slept all night. One day, he came very happily to my office, and he reported that he had found the thief after a long search that involved experiencing dangerous situations. He said that they found the thief’s car in front of a big super-market, and they caught him and sent him to the police station.
I read the news that Mike had in fact put an end to the thief’s attempt to steal from the supermarket. It turned out that Mike got his money and notebook computer back. I gladly accepted his original paper and it got a much higher grade than the rewritten one because of his virtues. And I reminded him that he should be responsible for his own safety and talk to me or other teachers first if he met with anything like that.
4. What was the problem with Mike
A. He was often late for class.
B. He always got low marks in exams.
C. He failed to hand in his paper on time.
D. He stayed up too late writing his paper.
5. What did Mike do at night over the two weeks
A. He tried to earn his living expenses.
B. He practised driving with his cousin.
C. He went to the class which the professor taught.

6. What happened to the thief finally
A. He voluntarily admitted the theft.
B. He was handed over to the police.
C. He escaped from a big supermarket.
D. He was reported caught by the professor.
7. Which words best describe Mike

Plastic surgery (整形手术) is not only popular in the US, but is also spreading across Asia. It is reported that South Korea is now the world’s largest market for plastic surgery.
In order to change their looks, 20 percent of women aged between 19 and 49 in Seoul said they had gone under the knife. The growth of South Korea’s pop music industry increases the popularity. Many patients visit clinics with photos of singers, asking doctors to copy their noses or eyes.
Joo Kwon, who founded one of the largest clinics in Seoul, recently opened a hotel to better serve customers. People will spend about $ 17,675 in a single visit. An increasing number of customers are non-Koreans, from China, Japan, the Middle East and even Africa. Leaders in South Korea say that this will help the Korean economy.
However, Mr. Kwon warned that young people should be careful when taking such operations. “I think South Korea doesn’t understand the word ‘beauty’, because everyone looks pretty much the same. It is also related to low self-confidence. I think the situation will somewhat become better in the future as the society becomes more different. But it will take quite a bit of time until we get there,” he told reporters.
Last year, a booklet (小册子) was given out to Korean high school students by the government. There was a story that a local woman who was crazy about plastic surgery ended up with an ugly face.
8. What is the main cause of the increase in plastic surgery in South Korea
A. The increasing understanding of beauty. B. The increasing number of clinics.
C. The rise of the pop music industry. D. The rise of the Korean economy.
9. What is Mr. Kwon’s attitude toward plastic surgery
A. He feels it is worth a try. B. He is strongly against it.
C. He is not interested in it. D. He is objective about it.
10. We can learn from the last paragraph that ________.
A. plastic surgery is supported by the government
B. high school students are encouraged to have plastic surgery
C. high school students in South Korea are fond of plastic surgery
D. plastic surgery is bad for people’s health
11. What is the main idea of the text
A. How to have plastic surgery.
B Why women have plastic surgery.
C. The famous singers in South Korea.
D. Rapid growth of plastic surgery in South Korea.
【答案】8. C 9. D 10. C 11. D
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇说明文。本文主要讲了整形手术在韩国的盛行及其弊端,也涉及到政府对待整形手术的态度。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“The growth of South Korea’s pop music industry increases the popularity.”(韩国流行音乐产业的发展提高了其受欢迎程度)可知,韩国流行音乐的发展促进了整形业的繁荣。故选C。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。 根据文章第三段Kwon先生说的话“I think the situation will somewhat become better in the future as the society becomes more different. But it will take quite a bit of time until we get there,”(我认为随着社会变得越来越不同,这种情况在未来会变得更好。但是要到那里还需要一段时间)可知,Kwon 先生对整形手术持客观态度。故选D。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“Last year, a booklet (小册子) was given out to Korean high school students by the government. There was a story that a local woman who was crazy about plastic surgery ended up with an ugly face.”(去年,政府向韩国高中生分发了一本小册子。有个故事说一个当地的女人,她对整形手术很狂热,结果却整出了一张丑陋的脸)可推知,韩国有很多高中生热衷于整形。故选C 。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段It is reported that South Korea is now the world’s largest market for plastic surgery.(据报道,韩国现在是世界上最大的整形手术市场)以及第三段An increasing number of clients are non-Koreans, from China, Japan, the Middle East and even Africa.(越来越多的客户不是韩国人,他们来自中国、日本、中东甚至非洲)结合全文内容可知,本文主要讲了韩国整形业的快速发展。故选D。

Bananas have happy superpower. Here’s the science from a researcher who specializes in the links between nutrition and mood. Ninety percent of Americans say they eat bananas at least once a month, which are followed by apples, making them the most popular fruit in the U.S. Not only are bananas delicious in healthy banana bread and smoothies; but eaten alone, bananas are packed with healthy vitamins and nutrients. Among its various benefits, this sunny yellow fruit has a happy superpower: it can serve as an important mood-booster.
“Due to the state of the world right now, a lot of people are having problems with stress, anxiety, depression, burnout and sleeplessness,”says Shawn Talbott, Ph.D, a nutritional biochemist who specializes in researching the links between nutrition and mood. If you can relate, Dr. Talbott offers his understanding into why our love for bananas is a bright spot in the American diet.
Dr. Talbott explains the main reason bananas may be the basic mood food: one banana contains 20 percent of your recommended daily allowance of vitamin B6. This vitamin is scientifically shown to reduce depression and anxiety, better the effects of stress, and improve mood overall, according to a 2019 study of how B vitamins affect mood, published in Nature.
The trick is vitamin B6’s power to produce serotonin (血清素), a powerful brain neurotransmitter, which is nicknamed the “happy hormone (荷尔蒙).” Dr. Talbott adds that bananas are also high in prebiotic fiber and potassium (钾), which are other nutrients linked to a good mood.
In fact, people who ate a diet higher in potassium showed less depression and a better mood overall, according to a study published in the British Journal of Nutrition. Dr. Talbott explains that vitamins, including B6, are one way to help support your body and mind in dealing with all of problems.
12. What are the most popular fruit in the U.S.
A. Pears. B. Bananas. C. Oranges. D. Apples.
13. What problems people are facing according to the text
A. Busy work. B. Fewer choices of food.
C. Some mental problems. D. Food without enough vitamins.
14. From paragraph 3 and 4, we can learn that .
A eating bananas can help produce serotonin. B. eating bananas can help produce potassium.
C. eating bananas can help us become healthier. D. eating bananas can help us become happier.
15. What can be a suitable title for the text
A. Bananas brighten your day. B. A hot fruit — Bananas.
C. Bananas contain vitamin B6. D. Americans love bananas.
【答案】12. B 13. C 14. D 15. A
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。香蕉在美国很受欢迎,文章解释了香蕉可以帮助我们变得更快乐的原因。

【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“Due to the state of the world right now, a lot of people are having problems with stress, anxiety, depression, burnout and sleeplessness(由于当今世界的现状,很多人都有压力、焦虑、抑郁、倦怠和失眠的问题)”可知,人们面临一些心理问题。故选C。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“This vitamin is scientifically shown to reduce depression and anxiety, better the effects of stress, and improve mood overall, according to a 2019 study of how B vitamins affect mood, published in Nature.(根据2019年发表在《自然》杂志上的一项关于B族维生素如何影响情绪的研究,科学证明这种维生素可以减少抑郁和焦虑,改善压力的影响,并改善整体情绪)”以及第四段“The trick is vitamin B6’s power to produce serotonin (血清素), a powerful brain neurotransmitter, which is nicknamed the “happy hormone (荷尔蒙).” Dr. Talbott adds that bananas are also high in prebiotic fiber and potassium (钾), which are other nutrients linked to a good mood.(秘诀在于维生素B6能产生血清素,这是一种强大的大脑神经递质,被称为“快乐激素”。塔尔博特博士补充说,香蕉还富含益生元纤维和钾,这是与好心情有关的其他营养物质)”可知,吃香蕉可以帮助我们变得更快乐。故选D。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文,并根据第一段“Bananas have happy superpower. Here’s the science, from a researcher who specializes in the links between nutrition and mood.(香蕉有快乐的超能力。以下是一位专门研究营养和情绪之间联系的研究人员给出的科学结论)”可知,香蕉在美国很受欢迎,文章解释了香蕉可以帮助我们变得更快乐的原因。由此可知,A选项“香蕉照亮你的一天”最符合文章标题。故选A。

52. Mr. Smith ________________ (不可能去日本了), for I attended his lecture this morning. (根据汉语提示完成句子)
【答案】can’t have gone to Japan
【解析】
【详解】考查情态动词。句意:史密斯先生不可能去日本了,因为今天上午我听了他的讲座。根据提示的汉语,表示“去日本”应为go to Japan,结合句意以及下文中的“I attended his lecture this morning.”可知,此处应是对过去情况的推测,应为“情态动词+have done”结构,且“不可能”程度很大,所以,表示“不可能”应为情态动词can’t。故填can’t have gone to Japan
53. ________________ in the new lunar year! (祝你在新年里好运连连!)(根据汉语提示完成句子)
【答案】May you be lucky##Wish you good luck
【解析】

55. __________________ (陷入沉思), he didn’t notice the car ahead at all. (根据汉语提示完成句子)
【答案】Lost in thought
【解析】

Dear Lucy,
Learning that you want to learn about the Lantern Festival of China, I’d be glad to introduce it to you.
The Lantern Festival (or Yuan Xiao Festival in Chinese) is another traditional Chinese festival with great significance, which falls on the 15th of the first lunar month, marking the end of New Year celebrations. This is a festival for people to have fun. At night, people go into the streets with a variety of lanterns under the full moon and watch the lion or dragon dance, try to solve Chinese riddles and play games, enjoy typical food called yuanxiao and set off firecrackers.
As for me, I deeply cherish our traditional festivals. They not only provide an opportunity for family reunions but also allow us to appreciate our cultural heritage and promote community bonding. These festivals remind us of our roots and instill a sense of belonging and pride in our rich traditions.
If you are interested in it, you can come to China later to experience it in person. I am looking forward to your arrival.
Looking forward to your reply.

A few years ago, I was an English professor, and I asked my students to finish a paper during the holiday. Mike, one of my students, came to class without it. He explained that his safe (保险柜)had been stolen by a worker who was repairing his house. His notebook computer was in the safe, where his paper was. I was sure that he didn’t tell a lie because he had been a really good student.
Then over the two weeks, Mike started to show up to class looking very tired. He said that he was on a hunt for the guy who stole his safe, and he was spending late nights with his cousin driving around looking for the thief because they knew his car. They wanted to find the thief and get the safe back because his living expenses were in it besides the paper.
Then Mike rewrote the paper and turned it in. It wasn’t up to his usual quality, and he still kept coming to class looking like he hadn’t slept all night. One day, he came very happily to my office, and he reported that he had found the thief after a long search that involved experiencing dangerous situations. He said that they found the thief’s car in front of a big super-market, and they caught him and sent him to the police station.
I read the news that Mike had in fact put an end to the thief’s attempt to steal from the supermarket. It turned out that Mike got his money and notebook computer back. I gladly accepted his original paper, and it got a much higher grade than the rewritten one because of his virtues. And I reminded him that he should be responsible for his own safety and talk to me or other teachers first if he met with anything like that.
4. What was the problem with Mike
A. He was often late for class.
B. He always got low marks in exams.
C. He failed to hand in his paper on time.
D. He stayed up too late writing his paper.
5. What did Mike do at night over the two weeks
A. He tried to earn his living expenses.
B. He practised driving with his cousin.
C. He went to the class which the professor taught.
D. He sought for the house repairman who had stolen his safe.
6. What happened to the thief finally
A. He voluntarily admitted the theft.
B. He was handed over to the police.
C. He escaped from a big supermarket.
D. He was reported caught by the professor.
7. Which words best describe Mike
A. Brave and honest. B. Imaginative and creative.
C. Smart but lazy. D. Poor but happy.
C
Plastic surgery (整形手术) is not only popular in the US, but is also spreading across Asia. It is reported that South Korea is now the world’s largest market for plastic surgery.
In order to change their looks, 20 percent of women aged between 19 and 49 in Seoul said they had gone under the knife. The growth of South Korea’s pop music industry increases the popularity. Many patients visit clinics with photos of singers, asking doctors to copy their noses or eyes.
Joo Kwon, who founded one of the largest clinics in Seoul, recently opened a hotel to better serve customers. People will spend about $ 17,675 in a single visit. An increasing number of customers are non-Koreans, from China, Japan, the Middle East and even Africa. Leaders in South Korea say that this will help the Korean economy.
However, Mr. Kwon warned that young people should be careful when taking such operations. “I think South Korea doesn’t understand the word ‘beauty’, because everyone looks pretty much the same. It is also related to low self-confidence. I think the situation will somewhat become better in the future as the society becomes more different. But it will take quite a bit of time until we get there,” he told reporters.
Last year, a booklet (小册子) was given out to Korean high school students by the government. There was a story that a local woman who was crazy about plastic surgery ended up with an ugly face.
8. What is the main cause of the increase in plastic surgery in South Korea
A. The increasing understanding of beauty. B. The increasing number of clinics.
C. The rise of the pop music industry. D. The rise of the Korean economy.
9. What is Mr. Kwon’s attitude toward plastic surgery
A. He feels it is worth a try. B. He is strongly against it.
C. He is not interested in it. D. He is objective about it.
10. We can learn from the last paragraph that ________.
A. plastic surgery is supported by the government
B. high school students are encouraged to have plastic surgery
C. high school students in South Korea are fond of plastic surgery
D. plastic surgery is bad for people’s health
11. What is the main idea of the text
A. How to have plastic surgery.
B. Why women have plastic surgery.
C. The famous singers in South Korea.
D. Rapid growth of plastic surgery in South Korea.

Bananas have happy superpower. Here’s the science, from a researcher who specializes in the links between nutrition and mood. Ninety percent of Americans say they eat bananas at least once a month, which are followed by apples, making them the most popular fruit in the U.S. Not only are bananas delicious in healthy banana bread and smoothies; but eaten alone, bananas are packed with healthy vitamins and nutrients. Among its various benefits, this sunny yellow fruit has a happy superpower: it can serve as an important mood-booster.
“Due to the state of the world right now, a lot of people are having problems with stress, anxiety, depression, burnout and sleeplessness,”says Shawn Talbott, Ph.D, a nutritional biochemist who specializes in researching the links between nutrition and mood. If you can relate, Dr. Talbott offers his understanding into why our love for bananas is a bright spot in the American diet.
Dr. Talbott explains the main reason bananas may be the basic mood food: one banana contains 20 percent of your recommended daily allowance of vitamin B6. This vitamin is scientifically shown to reduce depression and anxiety, better the effects of stress, and improve mood overall, according to a 2019 study of how B vitamins affect mood, published in Nature.
The trick is vitamin B6’s power to produce serotonin (血清素), a powerful brain neurotransmitter, which is nicknamed the “happy hormone (荷尔蒙).” Dr. Talbott adds that bananas are also high in prebiotic fiber and potassium (钾), which are other nutrients linked to a good mood.
In fact, people who ate a diet higher in potassium showed less depression and a better mood overall, according to a study published in the British Journal of Nutrition. Dr. Talbott explains that vitamins, including B6, are one way to help support your body and mind in dealing with all of problems.
12. What are the most popular fruit in the U.S.
A. Pears. B. Bananas. C. Oranges. D. Apples.
13. What problems people are facing according to the text
A. Busy work. B. Fewer choices of food.
C. Some mental problems. D. Food without enough vitamins.
14. From paragraph 3 and 4, we can learn that .
A. eating bananas can help produce serotonin. B. eating bananas can help produce potassium.
C. eating bananas can help us become healthier. D. eating bananas can help us become happier.
15. What can be a suitable title for the text
A. Bananas brighten your day. B. A hot fruit — Bananas.
C. Bananas contain vitamin B6. D. Americans love bananas.
