Dear Mr. Smith,
I am Li Hua, a high school student. Hearing that a world literature salon is to be held in our city next Sunday, I’m writing
to inquire about it, because I have been passionate about literature since I was a little girl.
First of all, I’d love to know whether there are any qualifications required to join in this salon. Besides, what activities
will be organized accordingly For example, will there be some lectures given by some famous writers What’s more, if I’m
lucky enough to be allowed to join in this salon, do I need to make some advance preparations, mentally and physically
I’d appreciate it if you could offer me detailed information regarding this salon. Thank you for your kindness!
Yours,
Li Hua

At the very moment, I understood all. Actually, Khan saved my daughter risking his own life. He spotted a snake
approaching and intending to bite little Charlotte. He tried all he could to fight back the snake and therefore his strange action
that seemed violent at first was really an attempt to save my girl’s life. I, with my daughter, immediately ran back to Khan,
who was alone there on the grass, bleeding with snake bites on his chest. He took Charlotte away from the snake’s bite, but
was bitten badly himself. “He’s bleeding! Help him! Mom!” cried Charlotte.
Khan needed immediate medical help, so I called a vet (兽医) in no time. The vet checked Khan thoroughly.
Thankfully, there was nothing serious because that snake was not poisonous. But Khan still needed some medical treatment
and proper care. Although Khan just stayed in our home for only a few days, this hero had managed to capture my heart with
his brave action. If he had not taken action at the right moment, the snake would have struck my daughter instead. Without
hesitation, I made a decision to give Khan his deserved home for the love he demonstrated to our family in such an amazing
way.

Text 10(第 20 题为概括题)
Good afternoon, everybody, and thank you for giving me your time today. Firstly I'd like to talk to you about the kind
of people we're looking for at Pacific Clothing, and finally I'd like to tell you what we offer you if you come to work for
us. All kinds of people work in a wide range of jobs in the clothing industry, from drivers to office workers and artists. Right
now we're on the lookout for scientists, particularly to work with the dyes we use to colour cloth. And to design the patterns
and choose the colours which are going to appeal to consumers, we have a strong design team. We're not looking for any new
designers at present but chances may arise in the future. However, at the moment we are looking for engineers to work in
the production department. And we're currently employing accountants. They're not usually associated with fashion
but let me tell you, they perform a vital task. But that's not to say that, if you have qualifications in another field, for
example, sales, we don’t be needing someone like you in the future.

I used to believe that only words could catch the essence of the human soul. The literary works contained such distinct stories that they shaped the way we saw the world. Words were what composed the questions we sought to uncover and the answers to those questions themselves. Words were everything.
That belief changed.
In an ordinary math class, my teacher posed a simple question: What's 0.99 rounded to the nearest whole number Easy. When rounded to the nearest whole number, 0.99=1. Somehow, I thought even though 0. 99 is only 0.01 away from 1, there's still a 0.01 difference. That means even if two things are only a little different, they are still different, so doesn't that make them completely different
My teacher answered my question by presenting another equation (等式): 1 =0.9, which could also be expressed as 1=0.99999… repeating itself without ever ending.
There was something mysterious but fascinating about the equation. The left side was unchangeable, objective: It contained a number that ended. On the right was something endless, a number repeating itself limitless times. Yet, somehow, these two opposite things were connected by an equal sign.
Lying in bed, I thought about how much the equation paralleled our existence. The left side of the equation represents that sometimes life itself is so unchangeable and so clear: the concrete, whole number of the day when you were born and the day when you would die. But then there is that gap in between life and death. The right side means a time and space full of limitless possibilities, and endless opportunities into the open future.
So that's what life is, objective but imaginative, unchangeable but limitless. Life is an equation with two sides that balances itself out. Still, we can't ever truly seem to put the perfect words to it. So possibly numbers can express ideas as equally well as words can. For now, let's leave it at that: 1 =0.9999… and live a life like it.
24. What does the author emphasize about words in Paragraph 1
A. Their expressive power. B. Their literary origins.
C. Their distinct sounds. D. Their wide variety.
25. What made the author find the equation fascinating
A. The repetition of a number.
B. The way two different numbers are equal.
C. The question the teacher raised.
D. The difference between the two numbers.
26. Which of the following can replace the underlined word“ paralleled” in Paragraph 6
A. Measured. B. Composed. C. Mirrored. D. Influenced.
27. What is a suitable title for the text
A. The Perfect Equation B. Numbers Build Equations
C. An Attractive Question D. Words Outperform Numbers
C
For more than two decades, Elon Musk has focused SpaceX, his rocket company, on his lifelong goal of reaching Mars. Over the last year, he has also built up work on what will happen if he gets there.
Mr. Musk, 53, has directed SpaceX employees to drill into the design and details of a Martian city, according to five people with knowledge of the efforts and documents viewed by The New York Times. One team is drawing up plans for small dome habitats, including the materials that could be used to build them. Another is working on spacesuits to combat Mars's hostile environment, while a medical team is researching whether humans can have children there.
These initiatives, which are at their early stage, are a shift toward more concrete planning for life on Mars as Mr. Musk's timeline has hastened (加速). While he said in 2016 that it would take 40 to 100 years to have a self- sustaining civilization on the planet, Mr. Mus k told SpaceX employees in April that he now expects one million people to be living there in about 20 years.
Mr. Musk has long tried to defy(违抗) the impossible and has often managed to beat tough odds. But his vision for life on Mars takes his seemingly limitless ambitions to their most extreme—— and some might say absurdist— point. No one has ever set foot on the planet. NASA doesn't expect to land humans on Mars until the 2040s. And if people get there, they will be greeted by a barren terrain, icy temperatures, dust storms, and air that is impossible to breathe.
Yet Mr. Musk is so wedded(执着) to the idea of creating a civilization on Mars — he once said he plans to die there —— that it has pushed nearly every business endeavor he has undertaken on Earth. His vision for Mars underlies most of the six companies that he leads or owns, each of which could potentially contribute to a space colony, according to the documents and the people with knowledge of the efforts.
The Boring Company, a private tunneling venture founded by Mr. Musk, was started in part to ready equipment to dig under Mars's surface, two of the people said. Mr. Musk has told people that he bought X, the social media platform, partly to help test how a citizen- led government that rules by consensus might work on Mars. He has also said that he envisions residents on the planet will drive a version of the steel- paneled Cybertrucks made by Tesla, his electric vehicle company.
28. What measures are being taken by SpaceX to realize their dream of Mars
A. Designing large spaceships and building hospitals.
B. Planning for habitats and designing spacesuits.
C. Developing technologies and training medical teams.
D. Building space stations and inspiring employees to strive.
29. How do some people find Mr. Musk's vision for Mars
A. Practical and achievable. B. Unreasonable and time- consuming.
C. Theoretical and promising. D. Over- ambitious and ridiculous.
30. Why did Mr. Musk purchase X social media platform
A. Because he intended to create a company on Mars.
B. Because he was interested in promoting social network on Mars.
C. Because he wanted to make profits by running it on Mars.
D. Because he dreamt of a resident- managed government for Mars.
31. What is the passage mainly about
A. Elon Musk’s determination and initiatives to put people on Mars.
B. Elon Musk's efforts to overcome the challenges of exploring Mars.
C. Elon Musk's overall vision for the future development of Mars.
D. Elon Musk's companies on Mars and their contributions.
D
Reading fiction is an emotional experience. Feeling emotions —— even negative emotions such as sadness — drives reading and helps us enjoy books. The emotions we feel when reading may even help us show empathy, understand that others have opinions, and encourage us to help others. The emotional experience of reading is both individually and socially beneficial.
Currently, however, the link between reading and emotions is largely missing from the reading experienced by young people in English literature lessons in England.
The General Certificate of Secondary Education (GCSE) English literature curriculum has been criticized. Examination questions in English literature are usually constructed impersonally. For instance, a recent GCSE paper asks students,“ How does Priestley explore the importance of social class in An Inspector Calls ” Questions like this encourage students to consider the intention and style of the author without taking their personal response to the text into account.
The current approach to the English literature curriculum and its assessment is also in conflict with how teachers view the value of emotions in English teaching. In our recent study, we found that the teachers used the words“ feel” and“ feelings” frequently. These words often occurred within broader comments about engagement and a sense of closeness to both the themes and characters in the texts being studied. Some of the teachers we surveyed felt that this connection with a text had to be in place before any attempt to analyze language, structure and meaning. As one teacher said, “I find the easiest way of getting kids to analyze language is getting them to think about how it makes them feel and then to explore how the language is making that happen.”
Teachers were also keen to promote the value of discussion in their classrooms. They viewed this as an important way in which learners developed as readers, through dialogue and by building on others' emotional responses. They felt such collective talk was important as a tool for enriching the classroom environment. It also, crucially, encouraged students to understand that any literary text can spark multiple and often very different interpretations.
School reading should be more closely aligned (使一致) to personal reading practices and those are very much driven by emotions.
32. What is the first paragraph mainly about
A. Reading experiences of young people. B. Benefits of emotional reading.
C. Significance of releasing emotions. D. Trends in fiction reading.
33. Which of the following questions might be considered impersonal
A. How would you react if you were in the same situation
B. Which of the poems impresses you most and why
C. What is your understanding of the saying“ Well begun, half done”
D. What writing techniques are used by the author in the fiction
34. What should be done before analyzing literary works according to some teachers
A. Predicting the plot. B. Analyzing the language.
C. Relating to the works. D. Outlining the structure.
35. What is the author's purpose in writing Paragraph 5
A. To illustrate a standard teaching procedure.
B. To introduce an effective teaching practice.
C. To explore an innovative reading method.
D. To review an unforgettable reading activity.
第二节 (共5 小题; 每小题2.5分, 满分12.5分)
阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
If you have ever interacted with a playful puppy, a darling kitten, or any other adorable creature, chances are that you've experienced an overwhelming urge to pet, squeeze, or even pinch (捏) them. 36 It is a response that is likely linked to our innate drive to nurture and protect our young.
37 A questionnaire to measure the levels of cute aggression experienced was given to the participants of the study. Researchers found that people tend to feel a stronger“ cute aggression” response towards baby animals and pictures of digitally enhanced human babies with enlarged features. They also found that seeing cute things triggers the brain's emotion and reward systems. Someone may feel so overwhelmed with emotions that they have become unmanageable. The brain's strategy to regulate this imbalance is to express an“ opposite” emotion to avoid excessive emotional exertion(消耗). 38 This phenomenon is called a dimorphous expression(二态表达) of emotion.
A second study also confirmed that cute aggression is a way of regulating emotions. When people are overwhelmed by a strong emotion, they develop distorted (歪曲) negative behavior called“ duplicity,” in which what they do does not correspond to what they think. But cute aggression doesn't equal abusive violence. 39
Now that you know why you feel the urge to squeeze unbearably cute and fluffy things, there's no need to worry about these aggressive tendencies. 40 If you feel the urge to pinch, bite, or even“ g rind your teeth” when you see cute animals, don't worry —— this is not“ sadistic(虐待狂的) tendencies”, but the brain is trying to control itself.
A. The brain uses aggression to balance the overwhelming positive emotions of the two systems.
B. A study in 2018 sought to comprehend the brain activity triggering cute aggression.
C. The stronger the feelings of cute aggression, the stronger the urge to flee.
D. They' re a normal part of our response to adorable creatures.
E. On the contrary, cute aggression can foster collaboration between people.
F. The former is a positive emotion that does not lead to real violent actions.
G. This instinctive impulse is commonly referred to as cute aggression.

For thirty years, I was a screen writer. My miniseries, A Year in the Life starring Richard Kiley won Emmy award. I 41 an animated feature film, The Land Before Time for producers Steven Spielberg. Despite these 42 , I often worried about my next paycheck. It wore me down. Over the years, finding security in writing 43 one word :“YES.”
In 2001, Lawrence Turman, the dean of MFA Producing Program at USC, offered me a chance to teach a class. With very little 44 , I said YES. I went for the interview, and 45 the job. In the following days, I fell in love with teaching and enjoyed the idea of knowing I'd be receiving a modest but 46 income. Four- and-a- half years later, I became a full tenured professor.
In 2015, an email arrived inviting me to be a 47 for an upcoming TEDx event. While I 48 knew what it was, I said YES. It turned out I'd have to prepare a fifteen- minute monologue to be delivered before a live audience of 500 people with no notes, just a headset and a bare 49 . But I made it through and, ultimately, the talk was well received.
After the talk was posted online, it went viral and I was 50 about turning it into a book. 51 , I said YES. 52 a successful pre- sale campaign and interest from fifteen publishers, I 53 with Harvard Square Editions, a publishing house run by Harvard alumni that grew out of the Harvard Alumni Association group. My first novel, That One Cigarette, was 54 on November 24,2017.
Embracing 55 with a simple “YES” guided my journey successfully.

With a 98-87 win over France in the PARIS Olympic title game, the U. S. men's basketball team downed France to win its fifth straight Olympic gold medal. Stephen Curry, the Golden State Warriors superstar, scored 24 points, all from the eight three- pointers when he shot 8- out- of-10, 56 led the US to the top podium, again. Team USA needed every bit of Stephen Curry's heroics 57 ( beat) France at Bercy Arena.
On Saturday, USA led for the final 34 minutes, 35 seconds, spending the late evening stopping rallies(回升) from a French team that would not weaken. That's when the Curry attack began. He hit four three- pointers in the span of 2 minutes, 12 seconds, 58 ( seal) the victory and the USA's fifth gold medal in 59 row. When the last one splashed through the hoop, Stephen Curry sprinted down the floor with the energy and vigor of a child, pressing his hands 60 his head in a sleeping motion. The team called and celebrated the incredible 61 ( accomplish). They put another opponent into hibernation with a once- in-a- lifetime display, this time on basketball's grandest stage on Curry's Olympic debut.
Curry's legendary shooting 62 ( witness) by the NBA for 15 years. But it was not 63 the Olympic Games Paris 2024 that he really participated in a Games — and it was well worth the wait. Sixteen- year NBA veterans(老运动员) 64 ( general) do not have many first- time experiences or new adventures, but Curry's time in France was 65 ( satisfy).“I was just laughing, and taking it all in because you never know if this moment would happen again,” said Curry.

第二节 (满分25分)
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。
It was a sunny Tuesday and Khan, a pet dog, had joined our family the previous Thursday. He had already decided that my two- year- old Charlotte was his No. 1 girl. The dog had seldom left her side since he arrived at his new home. To tell the truth, I was a little bit hesitant about whether to accept him or not.
I was just in the house doing boring chores and Charlotte cried to go outside and run around. So I took her into the garden for some fresh air. Khan was always next to Charlotte even when she was just toddling(蹒跚) around the garden, looking at flowers and all that good stuff. Khan was with her. Charlotte was soon tired of playing in the garden and then went to play with the padlock(挂锁) on the gate. She was beating the padlock and it was banging on the gate. I thought Khan, who was naturally right next to Charlotte, might be disturbed by the loud noise, but he seemed undisturbed by it. Seeing these, I felt at ease, sipping my coffee leisurely at the nearby arbor(凉亭).
That was until, entirely without warning, Khan became very upset indeed. He suddenly started making noise from the depths of his chest, this growl. His whole chest puffed up, his hair stood up, and he lowered his head and pushed my Charlotte.“ Are you going to hurt my daughter Go away!” I rushed desperately to save my daughter. As I screamed, Khan seemed to double in size and his chest was bigger than he was long. He grabbed Charlotte by the back of her clothes and threw her over his shoulder into the garden. I was completely stunned: Charlotte was just sitting right there in a pile of grass, giggling with delight. Still not sure whether Khan's strange behavior was some sort of attack on my child, I raced to pick up Charlotte, who was totally
unharmed, leaving Khan behind. Just as I turned to run into the house with my daughter in my arms, a giant snake slid away, hissing across the grass.
