After serving as a backup crew member for 24 years, Chinese taikonaut Deng Qingming’s dream finally came true—he performed his first space mission onboard the Shenzhou XV spaceship along with two other astronauts on Nov. 29.
Deng is the last one of the country’s first group of 14 astronauts to be sent into space. The name of Deng, 56 years old, was not known by many people until China launched the Shenzhou XIII spaceship in October last year. The story of the veteran (老战士) who relentlessly pursued his space dream despite serving as a backup for years moved many, and for which he was praised as a “hidden hero”.
In 1996, Deng began to take part in the PLA Air Force’s selection of astronaut candidates and was finally selected with another 13 aviators. In the following years, Deng dedicated almost all of his time to training and has spared no efforts to strive for an opportunity to fly into space. He was a backup crew member for the Shenzhou IX, X and XI, XII missions.
“Being a backup doesn’t mean you don’t need to work. I must watch closely in the control center and offer all I know about the mission and the spacecraft in case of emergency,” Deng said during a previous interview. “Only when the crew returns to Earth will my mission be complete”.
When training for Shenzhou XI mission carried out in 2016, Deng was confined in a spacecraft simulator no bigger than 10 square meters for 33days. They had no showers and endured loud noise and piercing light as they tried to sleep.
No matter how difficult the road to space flight is, Deng never once thought of giving up. He was awarded the title “Role Model of the Times” by the Publicity Department of the Communist Party of China Central Committee in 2018.
“Be it a crew or a backup, it is the job. And the success of the mission comes before my personal wishes,” Deng once said.
24. What can we know about Deng Qingming
A. He belongs to the latest group of China’s astronauts.

Every year on 2 February, Punxsutawney Phil, the groundhog (土拨鼠), comes out of his hole in Punxsutawney, Pennsylvania. If the sun is shining and he sees his shadow before going back into his hole, it means winter will last six more weeks. But if the day is cloudy, spring will come early. Curiously, Phil is not alone. In the region around Milan, tradition has it that if the bear comes out of his hole on a sunny day, he will be able to make himself a nice dry bed and then he’ll want to keep on sleeping. This will show that the winter will continue. But if it’s a rainy day, the bear will have to stay out—and spring will come soon.
“These traditions can be traced back to Indo-European civilisations 3,000-5,000 years ago,” says Venetian historian Elena Righetto. “That’s why they are spread all over Europe,” she explains. The deepest meaning of the tradition, according to Righetto, is in its seemingly contradictory (矛盾的) nature. It might seem illogical (不合逻辑的) that cold days indicate the coming of spring, or that groundhogs and bears would decide to stay out just when the weather is bad.
“The idea is that the darkest moment, when everything seems to go wrong, is when we experience a rebirth, a new life,” explains Righetto. There is a thought that life comes from darkness, just as plants start to grow from the seeds left underground during winter. This thought is so powerful that it crossed countries and survived centuries.
Traditions don’t protect people from bad weather, death, or illness, but they protect them emotionally from some of the anxiety related to those coming realities. They don’t solve the real problem, but they solve the mental problem—they help you live through the hard times of life. In a way, if we can believe in the magical powers of groundhogs and bears, we might find even an extended (延长的) winter a bit warmer and friendlier.
28. What can we learn from the first paragraph
A. Animals are cleverer than humans. B. The groundhog dislikes his shadow.
C. The bear prefers to sleep in the dry bed. D. Nice weather indicates an extended winter.
29. What does the second paragraph talk about
A. The origin of the traditions. B. The nature of the world.
C The laws of the nature. D. Indo-European civilisations.
30. What can we learn about these traditions from the last paragraph
A. They can prevent bad weather. B. They can provide emotional support.
C. They can solve the real problem. D. They can exercise magical powers.
31. What is the author’s attitude towards the idea behind the traditions
A. Critical. B. Puzzled. C. Respectful. D. Uncertain.
D
As Ginni Bazlinton reached Antarctica, she found herself greeted by a group of little Gentoo penguins (企鹅) longing to say hello. These gentle, lovely gatekeepers welcomed her and kick-started what was to be a trip Ginni would never forget.
Ever since her childhood, Ginni, now 71, has had a deep love for travel. Throughout her career (职业) as a professional dancer, she toured in the UK, but always longed to explore further. When she retired from dancing and her sons eventually flew the nest, she decided it was time to take the plunge.
After taking a degree at Chichester University in Related Arts, Ginni began to travel the world, eventually getting work teaching English in Japan and Chile. And it was in Chile she discovered she could get last-minute cheap deals on ships going to Antarctica from the islands off Tierra del Fuego, the southernmost tip of the South American mainland. “I just decided I wanted to go,” she says. “I had no idea about what I’d find there and I wasn’t nervous, I just wanted to do it. And I wanted to do it alone as I always prefer it that way.”
In March 2008, Ginni boarded a ship with 48 passengers she’d never met before, to begin the journey towards Antarctica. “From seeing the wildlife to witnessing sunrises, the whole experience was amazing. Antarctica left an impression on me that no other place has,” Ginni says. “I remember the first time I saw a humpback whale; it just rose out of the water like some prehistoric creature and I thought it was smiling at us. You could still hear the operatic sounds it was making underwater.”
The realization that this is a precious land, to be respected by humans, was one of the biggest things that hit home to Ginni.
32. Which of the following best explains “take the plunge” underlined in paragraph 2
A. Try challenging things. B. Take a degree.
C. Bring back lost memories. D. Stick to a promise.
33. What made Ginni decide on the trip to Antarctica
A. Lovely penguins. B. Beautiful scenery.
C. A discount fare. D. A friend’s invitation.
34. What does Ginni think about Antarctica after the journey
A. It could be a home for her. B. It should be easily accessible.
C. It should be well preserved. D. It needs to be fully introduced.
35 What is the text mainly about
A. A childhood dream. B. An unforgettable experience.
C. Sailing around the world. D. Meeting animals in Antarctica.

I was a volunteer for an organisation at the beginning of this year. The organisation is aimed at helping children who suffer from cancer. One day, we were asked to raise money for cancer research and programme funding at an event.
Since my friend Lisa was also a volunteer for the organisation, I went to the event with her. There were many people at the event. After seeing our poster, some people came to us and talked with us. But few people donated money. It was a bit hot that day. Both Lisa and I got really upset.
Half an hour later, Lisa started complaining, “I don’t think we can raise much money today. ”
“Don’t worry. The event lasts for three hours. There is still a lot of time left，” I said, though I also thought poorly of our plan to raise much money that day.
While Lisa and I were talking, a little boy of about eight years old came to us. He stood in front of our poster and started reading.
After a while, he asked, “What is cancer？”
I explained what cancer is. Then I said, “Many people around the world are suffering from cancer. It can be really dangerous. More research is needed to learn about it so that people with it can suffer less. That’s why we’re collecting money for it. ”
“Do children suffer from cancer, too？” asked the boy.
“Yes. Many children suffer from cancer. Some of them may die. They need help. ” Lisa said and I nodded.
Hearing that, the boy became sad. Then the boy asked, “How much money have you collected？”
Both Lisa and I were embarrassed to tell him that we didn’t raise much money. At last, we said, “Not much. ”
The boy looked into our donation container and only saw a few one dollar and five dollar bills. The boy said nothing after seeing that and left. Then some girls came to us and we started talking with them. Neither Lisa nor I thought the boy would return. However, about twenty minutes later, the boy did return.
注意：1．续写词数应为150左右；2．请按如下格式在相应位置作答。
The boy happily ran to us and asked, “Would you take a donation from children？”
______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Both Lisa and I were deeply touched.

【24题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“The name of Deng, 56 years old, was not known by many people until China launched the Shenzhou XIII spaceship in October last year.(在去年10月中国发射神舟十三号飞船之前，56岁的邓清明的名字并不为很多人所知)”可知，邓清明的故事直到去年才向公众披露。故选C项。
【25题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段中““Being a backup doesn’t mean you don’t need to work. I must watch closely in the control center and offer all I know about the mission and the spacecraft in case of emergency,” Deng said during a previous interview. “Only when the crew returns to Earth will my mission be complete”.(“做后备宇航员并不意味着你不需要工作。我必须在控制中心密切监视，并提供我所知道的关于任务和飞船的一切，以防万一，”邓清明在之前的采访中说。“只有当机组人员返回地球时，我的任务才会完成。”)”可知，邓清明作为后备宇航员，他需要密切关注正在进行的任务并提供协助。故选D项。
【26题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第三段“When training for Shenzhou XI mission carried out in 2016, Deng was confined in a spacecraft simulator no bigger than 10 square meters for 33days. They had no showers and endured loud noise and piercing light as they tried to sleep.(在2016年执行神舟十一号任务的训练中，邓清明被关在一个不超过10平方米的航天器模拟器中长达33天。他们没有淋浴，在试图入睡时忍受着巨大的噪音和刺眼的光线)”以及倒数第二段中“No matter how difficult the road to space flight is, Deng never once thought of giving up.(无论太空飞行之路多么艰难，邓清明从未想过放弃)”可知，无论条件多么艰苦，邓清明都能坚持下去，他是有决心的，再根据最后一段““Be it a crew or a backup, it is the job. And the success of the mission comes before my personal wishes,” Deng once said.(邓清明曾说：“无论是机组人员还是后备人员，这都是我的工作。这次任务的成功比我个人的愿望更重要。”)”可知，邓清明是一位乐于奉献的人，所以决心和奉献形容邓清明最恰当。故选A项。
【27题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段“After serving as a backup crew member for 24 years, Chinese taikonaut Deng Qingming’s dream finally came true—he performed his first space mission onboard the Shenzhou XV spaceship along with two other astronauts on Nov. 29.(在做了24年的后备宇航员后，中国宇航员邓清明的梦想终于实现了——11月29日，他与另外两名宇航员一起在神舟十五号飞船上执行了他的第一次太空任务)”可知，本文主要讲述了做了24年的后备宇航员邓清明，终于梦想成真，所以B项“Stay-at-home Taikonaut’s Dream Coming True.(后备航天员梦想成真)”是本文最好的标题。故选B项。

Every year on 2 February, Punxsutawney Phil, the groundhog (土拨鼠), comes out of his hole in Punxsutawney, Pennsylvania. If the sun is shining and he sees his shadow before going back into his hole, it means winter will last six more weeks. But if the day is cloudy, spring will come early. Curiously, Phil is not alone. In the region around Milan, tradition has it that if the bear comes out of his hole on a sunny day, he will be able to make himself a nice dry bed and then he’ll want to keep on sleeping. This will show that the winter will continue. But if it’s a rainy day, the bear will have to stay out—and spring will come soon.
“These traditions can be traced back to Indo-European civilisations 3,000-5,000 years ago,” says Venetian historian Elena Righetto. “That’s why they are spread all over Europe,” she explains. The deepest meaning of the tradition, according to Righetto, is in its seemingly contradictory (矛盾的) nature. It might seem illogical (不合逻辑的) that cold days indicate the coming of spring, or that groundhogs and bears would decide to stay out just when the weather is bad.
“The idea is that the darkest moment, when everything seems to go wrong, is when we experience a rebirth, a new life,” explains Righetto. There is a thought that life comes from darkness, just as plants start to grow from the seeds left underground during winter. This thought is so powerful that it crossed countries and survived centuries.
Traditions don’t protect people from bad weather, death, or illness, but they protect them emotionally from some of the anxiety related to those coming realities. They don’t solve the real problem, but they solve the mental problem—they help you live through the hard times of life. In a way, if we can believe in the magical powers of groundhogs and bears, we might find even an extended (延长的) winter a bit warmer and friendlier.
28. What can we learn from the first paragraph
A. Animals are cleverer than humans. B. The groundhog dislikes his shadow.
C. The bear prefers to sleep in the dry bed. D. Nice weather indicates an extended winter.
29. What does the second paragraph talk about
A. The origin of the traditions. B. The nature of the world.
C. The laws of the nature. D. Indo-European civilisations.
30. What can we learn about these traditions from the last paragraph
A. They can prevent bad weather. B. They can provide emotional support.
C. They can solve the real problem. D. They can exercise magical powers.
31. What is the author’s attitude towards the idea behind the traditions
A. Critical. B. Puzzled. C. Respectful. D. Uncertain.
【答案】28. D 29. A 30. B 31. C
【解析】
【导语】本文为说明文。介绍大地回春之际，土拨鼠和其它动物对天气的预测行为。
【28题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段“If the sun is shining and he sees his shadow before going back into his hole, it means winter will last six more weeks.(如果阳光明媚，他在回洞之前看到了自己的影子，这意味着冬天将持续六个多星期)”可知，好天气意味着冬天会更长。故选D。
【29题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第二段““These traditions can be traced back to Indo-European civilisations 3,000-5,000 years ago,” says Venetian historian Elena Righetto. “That’s why they are spread all over Europe,” she explains. The deepest meaning of the tradition, according to Righetto, is in its seemingly contradictory (矛盾的) nature. It might seem illogical (不合逻辑的) that cold days indicate the coming of spring, or that groundhogs and bears would decide to stay out just when the weather is bad.(威尼斯历史学家Elena Righetto说：“这些传统可以追溯到3000到5000年前的印欧文明。这就是它们遍布欧洲的原因，”她解释道。根据Righetto的说法，传统最深刻的意义在于其看似矛盾的本质。寒冷的日子预示着春天的到来，或者土拨鼠和熊决定在天气不好的时候呆在外面，这似乎是不合逻辑的)”可知，该段讲述了动物预测天气的起源及背后的互相矛盾的逻辑根源。故选A。
【30题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“Traditions don’t protect people from bad weather, death, or illness, but they protect them emotionally from some of the anxiety related to those coming realities. They don’t solve the real problem, but they solve the mental problem—they help you live through the hard times of life.(传统并不能保护人们免受恶劣天气、死亡或疾病的影响，但它们在情感上保护人们免受与即将到来的现实有关的一些焦虑。它们不能解决真正的问题，但能解决心理问题——它们能帮助你度过人生的艰难时期)”可知，这些传统给人们提供了情感支持。故选B。
31题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“Traditions don’t protect people from bad weather, death, or illness, but they protect them emotionally from some of the anxiety related to those coming realities. They don’t solve the real problem, but they solve the mental problem—they help you live through the hard times of life. In a way, if we can believe in the magical powers of groundhogs and bears, we might find even an extended (延长的) winter a bit warmer and friendlier.(传统并不能保护人们免受恶劣天气、死亡或疾病的影响，但它们在情感上保护人们免受与即将到来的现实有关的一些焦虑。它们不能解决真正的问题，但能解决心理问题——它们能帮助你度过人生的艰难时期。在某种程度上，如果我们相信土拨鼠和熊的神奇力量，我们可能会发现，即使是一个漫长的冬天，也会变得更加温暖和友好)”可知，作者是尊重这种传统的。故选C。
D
As Ginni Bazlinton reached Antarctica, she found herself greeted by a group of little Gentoo penguins (企鹅) longing to say hello. These gentle, lovely gatekeepers welcomed her and kick-started what was to be a trip Ginni would never forget.
Ever since her childhood, Ginni, now 71, has had a deep love for travel. Throughout her career (职业) as a professional dancer, she toured in the UK, but always longed to explore further. When she retired from dancing and her sons eventually flew the nest, she decided it was time to take the plunge.
After taking a degree at Chichester University in Related Arts, Ginni began to travel the world, eventually getting work teaching English in Japan and Chile. And it was in Chile she discovered she could get last-minute cheap deals on ships going to Antarctica from the islands off Tierra del Fuego, the southernmost tip of the South American mainland. “I just decided I wanted to go,” she says. “I had no idea about what I’d find there and I wasn’t nervous, I just wanted to do it. And I wanted to do it alone as I always prefer it that way.”
In March 2008, Ginni boarded a ship with 48 passengers she’d never met before, to begin the journey towards Antarctica. “From seeing the wildlife to witnessing sunrises, the whole experience was amazing. Antarctica left an impression on me that no other place has,” Ginni says. “I remember the first time I saw a humpback whale; it just rose out of the water like some prehistoric creature and I thought it was smiling at us. You could still hear the operatic sounds it was making underwater.”
The realization that this is a precious land, to be respected by humans, was one of the biggest things that hit home to Ginni.
32. Which of the following best explains “take the plunge” underlined in paragraph 2
A. Try challenging things. B. Take a degree.
C. Bring back lost memories. D. Stick to a promise.
33. What made Ginni decide on the trip to Antarctica
A. Lovely penguins. B. Beautiful scenery.
C. A discount fare. D. A friend’s invitation.
34. What does Ginni think about Antarctica after the journey
A. It could be a home for her. B. It should be easily accessible.
C. It should be well preserved. D. It needs to be fully introduced.
35. What is the text mainly about
A. A childhood dream. B. An unforgettable experience.
C. Sailing around the world. D. Meeting animals in Antarctica.
【答案】32. A 33. C 34. C 35. B
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章主要介绍了71岁Ginni Bazlinton从小就对旅行有着深深的热爱，渴望探险，不再跳舞和孩子们成家立业之后，她开始周游世界，并在2008年开始了前往南极洲的旅程。
【32题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第三段第一句“After taking a degree at Chichester University in Related Arts, Ginni began to travel the world, eventually getting work teaching English in Japan and Chile.(在奇切斯特大学获得相关艺术学位后，Ginni开始周游世界，最终在日本和智利找到了教英语的工作。)”可知，此处是指做有挑战性的事情，所以take the plunge意为“尝试有挑战性的事情”。故选A。
【33题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中的“And it was in Chile she discovered she could get last-minute cheap deals on ships going to Antarctica from the islands off Tiera del Fuego. (正是在智利，她发现自己可以在最后一刻买到从火地岛附近岛屿前往南极洲的廉价船票)”可知，是折扣的票价让Ginni决定去南极洲旅行的。故选C。
【34题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段“The realization that this is a precious land, to be respected by humans, was one of the biggest things that hit home to Ginni. (意识到这是一块宝贵的土地，应该受到人类的尊重，这是Ginni最深刻的感受之一)”可知，旅行结束后，Ginni认为南极洲应该得到很好的保护。故选C。
【35题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文可知，文章主要讲述了Ginni Bazlinton去南极旅行的经历，再根据第一段“These gentle lovely gatekeepers welcomed her and kick-started what was to be a trip Ginni would never forget. (这些温柔可爱的看门人欢迎了她，并开始了一次Ginni永远不会忘记的旅行)”和倒数第二段Ginni Bazlinton对南极之旅的评价可知，文章主要介绍了Ginni Bazlinton的南极洲之旅让她非常难忘。由此可知，An unforgettable experience. (一次难忘的经历) 能够概括文章主旨。故选B。

【答案】Dear Ryan,
I’m Li Hua from Class 3. I think it’s not a good idea to randomly pair up students for the spoken English training after class. The reasons are as follows.
To begin with, randomly pairing up students may lead to unbalanced language abilities within the groups. This can hinder the progress of students as the more advanced one may dominate the conversation, leaving little room for the other students to improve. Besides, students may feel uncomfortable or less motivated if paired with someone who they don’t get along with or have difficulty communicating with.
My suggestion is to group students based on their language abilities or to let students choose their own partners. This way, everyone can feel more comfortable practicing and improving their spoken English together.
Thank you for considering my suggestion.
Yours sincerely,
Li Hua

67. 读后续写
I was a volunteer for an organisation at the beginning of this year. The organisation is aimed at helping children who suffer from cancer. One day, we were asked to raise money for cancer research and programme funding at an event.
Since my friend Lisa was also a volunteer for the organisation, I went to the event with her. There were many people at the event. After seeing our poster, some people came to us and talked with us. But few people donated money. It was a bit hot that day. Both Lisa and I got really upset.
Half an hour later, Lisa started complaining, “I don’t think we can raise much money today. ”
“Don’t worry. The event lasts for three hours. There is still a lot of time left，” I said, though I also thought poorly of our plan to raise much money that day.
While Lisa and I were talking, a little boy of about eight years old came to us. He stood in front of our poster and started reading.
After a while, he asked, “What is cancer？”
I explained what cancer is. Then I said, “Many people around the world are suffering from cancer. It can be really dangerous. More research is needed to learn about it so that people with it can suffer less. That’s why we’re collecting money for it. ”
“Do children suffer from cancer, too？” asked the boy.
“Yes. Many children suffer from cancer. Some of them may die. They need help. ” Lisa said and I nodded.
Hearing that, the boy became sad. Then the boy asked, “How much money have you collected？”
Both Lisa and I were embarrassed to tell him that we didn’t raise much money. At last, we said, “Not much. ”
The boy looked into our donation container and only saw a few one dollar and five dollar bills. The boy said nothing after seeing that and left. Then some girls came to us and we started talking with them. Neither Lisa nor I thought the boy would return. However, about twenty minutes later, the boy did return.
注意：1．续写词数应为150左右；2．请按如下格式在相应位置作答。
The boy happily ran to us and asked, “Would you take a donation from children？”

【答案】The boy happily ran to us and asked, “Would you take a donation from children？” Lisa and I looked at each other. We couldn’t believe such a little boy would care. Though we didn’t believe it, we said “yes”. The boy put his hand in his pocket and took out some five dollar bills. He said, “I just asked for them from my mother. I really want to help the children suffering from cancer. ”
Both Lisa and I were deeply touched. We thanked the boy, but he left soon. Looking at his back, both Lisa and I were greatly encouraged. We wanted to try harder to raise money. So instead of just standing there, we went to people and told them about our programme. At the end of the day, we raised over three thousand dollars, a lot more than Lisa and I had expected in the beginning.
【解析】
【导语】本文是以“我”与朋友为帮助患癌的小朋友募集资金为线索展开。讲述“我”和朋友当志愿者，为患癌的小朋友募集资金，很多人路过，但是几乎没人捐钱。当我们沮丧时，一位大约8岁的小男孩过来询问相关事情并离开。
【详解】1. 段落续写：
①由第一段首句内容“男孩高兴地跑过来问我们:“你们愿意接受孩子们的捐赠吗 ””可知，本段可以写小男孩捐赠的过程和细节。
②由第二段首句内容“丽莎和我都被深深地感动了。”可知，本段可以写对小男孩的感谢以及之后募集的情况。
2. 续写线索：小男孩捐钱——我们深受感动和鼓舞——我们更加努力并改变募集方式——募集到比预料中更多的钱
