第二部分 阅读(共两节,满分50分)
第一节(共15小题;每小题2.5分,满分37.5分)
阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
A
Throughout history, great cities have risen and fallen. Some of them are seemingly lost in time—until artifacts(古物) that bring them back to life are discovered.
Teotihuacán
Located outside of Mexico City, Teotihuacán is thought to have been settled around 300 BC. By 600 AD, it was the most influential, powerful city in its region. Teotihuacán s real treasure is its massive step pyramids. Much of the city s history is still a mystery, but some believe that its decline resulted from changing climate conditions like long-term droughts.
Petra
This ancient city in southern Jordan flourished from 400 BC to 106 AD. It was an important place for spice and silk trade routes. Furthermore, it had a complicatedly-designed water management system. Petra was occupied by Rome in 106 AD, and the trade routes soon shifted. Hundreds of years later, earthquakes damaged the water system and Petra was abandoned.
Pompeii
Endless tales have been told about the tragedy of Pompeii, which occurred on August 24, in the year 79 AD, when the volcano Vesuvius erupted. The entire town was swiftly covered in ash and magma(岩浆). Everything was frozen in time. The site was unearthed in the 18th century, and the evidence found provided a great detail of insight into daily living in this ancient Italian city.
Ctesiphon
Located about 20 miles outside of Baghdad, Ctesiphon was one of the greatest cities in Western Asia in the 6th century. However, it was conquered(攻克) by Rome, and then by the Sassanid Empire. In 636 AD, it was captured by the Muslims. Many believe that the ancient city was the inspiration for the city of Isbanir mentioned in The Arabian Nights folk tales.
21.What do we know about Teotihuacán
A.Its history needs further exploration.
B.It was the most powerful city of its time.
C.It took about 400 years to reach its peak.
D.Its pyramids were ruined by climate change.
22.In which city can we learn about ancient Italian daily life
A.Teotihuacán. B.Petra.
C.Pompeii. D.Ctesiphon.
23.What do Petra and Ctesiphon have in common
A.They were sources of folk tales.
B.They fell into ruin due to natural disasters.
C.They were once defeated by Rome.
D.They were towns on the ancient Silk Road.
B
As I prepared for my Level 8 Royal Conservatory of Music piano exam, memories of previous disappointing marks filled me with dread and anxiety. The mere thought of booking the exam made me feel completely strained. However, fate had other plans in store for me.
Just when I thought things couldn t get any worse, my trusty 10-year-old electric piano malfunctioned. The middle C note played as an F-sharp, and multiple other keys were out of tune.
Despite my distress, my father refused to buy a new piano and instead urged me to be more resourceful. Initially, I was at a loss without my beloved electric piano. But after struggling for a few days, I decided to practice at school. Throughout my time at the private school, I was determined to find every available piano room on campus. After discovering hidden pianos in corners, I spent countless hours practicing. As my exam drew near, the music teachers knew exactly where to find me.
One day, while practicing in a piano room, one of my teachers walked in and offered me a mini exam. To my surprise, she was impressed by my progress and offered valuable feedback on how to improve my technique. My hard work and dedication paid off. Behind the piano, I found a place where I could be anyone.
Playing the piano became my escape from the anxieties of adolescence and allowed me to express myself freely. When it was time to play in front of the examiner, I no longer feared judgment. Instead, I only feared not being able to represent all my hard work. As the lights came on, I thought about the incredible journey that brought me to that moment.
Eventually, I received my mark. Not only did I achieve a rarely given “well done”, but I also discovered a newfound appreciation of music. Whenever I feel discouraged, I look at the gleaming keys of my new upright piano and remember the valuable lesson I learned. As my father always says, some lessons are best learned the hard way.
24.What happened to the author s electric piano
A.It played the wrong notes.
B.It stopped working.
C.It was sold by the author s father.
D.It was too old to use.
25.What can be inferred from paragraph 3
A.The author was dissatisfied with her father.
B.The father was angry about the author s bad behavior.
C.The author s family was too poor to afford a new piano.
D.The father wanted the author to address the problem independently.
26.Which of the following indicates the change of the author s feelings
A.Nervous-Disappointed-Angry-Calm.
B.Curious-Frustrated-Hopeful-Grateful.
C.Overwhelmed-Determined-Proud-Encouraged.
D.Depressed-Satisfied-Disappointed-Peaceful.
27.What did the author learn from her experience
A.Look before you leap.
B.Don t judge a book by its cover.
C.All that glitters is not gold.
D.God helps those who help themselves.
C
He came to Britain,16, with a handful of qualifications,￡5 in pocket and a burning ambition. Thirty-five years later, Vijay, 51, and his brother, Bhikhu, own a drug company which does ￡234 million worth of business each year. Together they are worth ￡280 million and now they have been jointly named “Entrepreneur of the Year”.
It is an inspirational tale. Yet despite their wealth and this award, Vijay remains modest about their success. He praises his mother, “She is an incredible lady. She taught us hard work and honesty, and we have based our lives on those qualities.”
In 1967, Vijay kissed his mother goodbye to London to make his fortune. “I had little more than my qualifications and ￡5,” says Vijay. “But to go with those, I had a huge ambition to make something of myself,” he recalls. Typically, Vijay looks on the bright side. “When you start from zero, things can t get any worse. You have only one way to go and that s up—if there is a hunger in your stomach for success,” Vijay says. “My brother and I made up our minds to better ourselves and Britain was the land of opportunity.” They wouldn t pass up the opportunity.
By 1982, he had owned six chemist s shops, when Bhikhu, a then financial analyst, joined him, adding some “financial disciplines” to his company. Vijay says, “I simply couldn t have done it without him.” As he puts it, “Brought up under one roof, we understand one another from A to Z.”
Vijay is keen to continue repaying the country where he has made his achievement. “We hope we are model citizens and would like to remain so,” he says. “We are lucky enough to live in a country that never stands in our way.” His message for young people is to do the same: “Identify your goal, and do not let anything discourage you from achieving that goal.”
28.What did Vijay possess when starting his business
A.￡280 million in cash.
B.A small drug company.
C.The title “Entrepreneur of the Year”.
D.Nothing but qualifications and an ambition.
29.What is the recipe for Vijay s success
A.His brother s financial aid.
B.His identity of the model citizen.
C.The perseverance in his goal.
D.Encouraging quotes from his mom.
30.Which can probably replace the underlined part in paragraph 4
A.We share something in common.
B.We know each other inside out.
C.We count on each other in careers.
D.We two together create fire and water.
31.Which of the following is a suitable title for the text
A.From Penniless to Millionaire
B.The Significance of Education
C.The Power of Deep Brotherhood
D.A Modest Successful Businessman
D
There are more than 28,000 routinely tracked objects orbiting Earth. The debris(残骸)is dominated by fragments from about 560 known breakups, explosions, and collisions of satellites or rocket bodies. Today s already active satellite infrastructure(基础设施)provides a multitude of critical services for modern society. Its loss would severely damage modern society.
Furthermore, a new era in space has just started, driven by commercial, low latency broadband services that rely on large constellations of satellites in low Earth orbit. These will revolutionize connectivity on the ground and in the air. However, they will also increase space traffic. Congestion(拥塞) in space is only going to get worse.
The debris decrease strategies defined two decades ago by experts in the world s leading space agencies aim to prevent explosive breakups by releasing remaining energy from space systems at the end of their missions, and to “get rid of” a space object. Although these strategies are widely recognized, dozens of large space objects are still left every year in critical orbital regions.
Progress can be made by advancing technology to ensure spaceflight safety. For example, the European Space Agency s Space Safety Programme is developing solutions that make disposal and energy passivation actions more fail-safe(有自动防故障功能的). “Deorbiting kits” will provide remaining energy and communication to ensure disposal of a spacecraft even after it stops working. A new field of “design-to-demise” will aim to replace critical components with less heat-resistant materials.
An internationally binding(有约束力的) system for the management of debris and space traffic is hanging. Thus far, space missions have been supervised on the national level only, and states have been encouraged to translate the non-binding space debris guidelines into national regulations. Furthermore, the implementation of space debris decrease requirements should be tracked, following internationally binding principles.
32.What will make the traffic jam in space severer
A.The space agency.
B.Satellite groups.
C.Broadband services.
D.Revolutionary connectivity.
33.Why did the experts make the strategies mentioned in paragraph 3
A.To end the mission in the space system.
B.To stop the objects from exploding in space.
C.To make the object re-enter the atmosphere.
D.To keep the objects in the critical orbital regions.
34.Which statement could the author agree with
A.Every country must have its own guidelines.
B.The international principle has been widely recognized.
C.Information about the space mission should not be shared.
D.Less heat-resistant materials for spacecraft should be used.
35.What is the main purpose of the text
A.To introduce the satellite infrastructure.
B.To call on people to focus on the internationally binding system.
C.To convey some helpful solutions to congestion in space.
D.To explain why low latency broadband services increase space traffic.

If you feel discouraged because of your plain looking, here are some practical ways that you can rethink your own appearance self-esteem(自信).
Throw away conventional, media-defined ideas of beauty. 36 , but you can change your own. Don t focus on the beauty you see in ads but, instead, on the beauty you see in the real-life people you admire.
Define yourself by how you do rather than how you look. Make your self-esteem based on your inner, not outer qualities. Focus on what you like about your abilities, personality and perspective on the world. These almost always show improvement over time. 37 .
38 . Be concerned about your body s shape; be concerned about how your body functions are. Engage in enough exercise and sensible eating to get in shape, but not to the point of trying to force yourself to follow the image of a fashion model.
Use others as a sounding board. You may think your nose is huge, but those who care about you may find the very features that bother you the most lovely. If you feel that you “look funny” or “look fat”, ask your nearest and dearest. 39 , saying that you don t need all that makeup or shapewear to be the person they love.
To sum up, changing our society s views on attractiveness won t be easy. 40 , and you will eventually define your identity in terms that allow you to gain fulfillment that lasts.

Tang Yan gave up a promising career in 1992 to save an almost lost art—the “Beijing silk figurine (北京绢人)”. In 1997, she established a studio with five other enthusiasts. Then they spent 56 entire year making several silk figurines, only to find there was no market for their products.
“A silk figurine could cost 57 (potential) the annual salary of many people at the time due to precious materials and 58 (demand) handicraft techniques,” Tang said. “Many potential customers were amazed at the beauty of our products, but their price 59 (drive) them away.”
The first failure taught Tang 60 they needed: finding ways to reduce production costs. She made many creative and bold 61 (adapt) of the traditional silk figurines, like using machines to paint the clothes, 62 (cut) the price to less than a tenth of the original one. However, 63 (lend) the dolls a sense of delicacy and craftsmanship, she preserved several handmade processes for hair and makeup.
After decades of wholehearted devotion 64 the craft, Tang now runs her own Beijing silk figurine product brand “Tang Wawa”. “Girls in China need their own dolls. When I was little, dolls 65 (call) yangwawa, meaning Western dolls.” Tang continued, “I wanted to create dolls bearing a cultural connection with Chinese people.”

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。
Most people think that procrastination (拖延症) is a negative habit. But people like me who routinely put off doing assignments, are likely to defend our “slower” approach to getting tasks done.
I m the only one who has procrastination in my family. My parents and sister were all born with the “do it right now” gift. They are always in a rush, as if closely rushed by an invisible deadline. Personally, I prefer a more relaxed pace. When my parents voiced their concern about my tendencies, saying “Don t put off until tomorrow what you can do today,” “No way!” I responded, confidently presenting my research as a defense. It says people procrastinate when they need to solve a problem or commit to a topic or project. In these cases, delaying a decision can be beneficial. This is because our minds continue to reflect on problems even when we are not actively thinking about them, which could lead to more creative solutions. My findings filled me with satisfaction and pride. My method of getting things done was just as good as my sister s...or so I thought.
At school we d been talking about architecture and design. As part of the final assessment my teacher Mr. Smith announced an exciting project that each student would have a month to complete. We were expected to choose our materials, construct a small building and make use of things we had learned in class. Not only would the winners receive extra credits, but the winning constructions would be proudly displayed in the cafeteria. “I don t have a clue how I could get it done,” my friend Nate sighed in despair. I didn t say anything. Not because I shared his anxiety—but because I was not nervous at all. I loved hands-on projects! Picturing my brilliant work exhibited in the cafeteria, I was fully convinced that I would definitely produce something that could impress everyone. So relaxed was I that I didn t give it a second thought for weeks.
注意:续写词数应为150个左右。
Before I knew it, I had only one day left for the project.
That taught me a great lesson.

22.C 细节理解题。根据题干中的关键词“ancient Italian daily life”可定位到Pompeii部分中的最后一句(该遗址于18世纪被发掘,所发现的证据为了解这座意大利古城中的日常生活提供了很多细节)。由此可知,在Pompeii我们可以了解古代意大利人的日常生活。故选C。
23.C 细节理解题。根据Petra部分中的“Petra was occupied by Rome in 106 AD(公元106年,Petra被罗马占领)”和Ctesiphon部分中的“it was conquered by Rome, and then by the Sassanid Empire(它先是被罗马攻克,然后又被拜占庭帝国攻克)”可知,Petra和Ctesiphon的共同点是都曾被罗马打败。故选C。
B
◎语篇解读 这是一篇记叙文。作者的电子钢琴在考试之前出故障了,但父亲拒绝给她买新的,并让她自己解决。通过这件事,作者明白了父亲说的有些教训是吃过苦头才能学到的。

25.D 推理判断题。根据第三段第一句“尽管我很忧虑,父亲还是拒绝给我买一架新钢琴,反而敦促我要更足智多谋”和倒数第二、三句“在我所有在这所私立学校的日子里,我决心找到学校里每一间可以用的钢琴室。在角落里发现隐藏的钢琴后,我花了无数个小时练习。”可推知,父亲拒绝给作者买新钢琴是为了让作者独立解决问题,并且事实证明,作者做到了,她利用学校的钢琴进行练习。故选D。
26.C 细节理解题。文中信息和作者的情感对应情况如下表:
信息句位置 文章原句 作者感情
第三段第二句 Initially, I was at a loss without my beloved electric piano. 不知所措
第三段第四句 Throughout my time at the private school, I was determined to find every available piano room on campus. 下定决心
第四段第二句 To my surprise, she was impressed by my progress and offered valuable feedback on how to improve my technique. 惊讶,感到 自豪
最后一段 倒数第二句 Whenever I feel discouraged, I look at the gleaming keys of my new upright piano and remember the valuable lesson I learned. 受到鼓舞
由此可知,C项(不知所措的—坚定的—自豪的—受到鼓舞的)符合作者的感情变化。故选C。
27.D 推理判断题。通读全文可知,文章主要讲述了作者在考试前电子琴出故障了,但父亲拒绝帮助她,让她自己解决,作者在挣扎了几天后决定去学校练习,通过自己的努力取得了好成绩的故事。作者由此体会到了主动、独立解决问题的重要性。由此推知,作者从她的经历中学到了“天助自助者”这个道理。故选D。
C
◎语篇解读 这是一篇新闻报道。文章主要介绍了被评为“年度企业家”的Vijay和Bhikhu的创业经过和成功的秘诀。
28.D 细节理解题。结合第一段第一句“16岁时,他来到不列颠,带着一些证书,口袋里的5英镑,还有一颗燃烧的雄心”和第三段中的“除了我的证书和5英镑之外,我一无所有。但与那些一起的还有一个伟大的抱负,那就是要成就一番事业。”可知,创业阶段,他除了资格证书和雄心外什么都没有。故选D。
29.C 推理判断题。根据第二段最后一句介绍的Vijay的母亲教会他的东西“hard work”,第三段第三句介绍的他有伟大的抱负,以及最后一段最后一句提到的他给年轻人的建议“确定你的目标,不要让任何事情阻碍你实现那个目标”可知,Vijay坚定自己的目标并为之坚持不懈地努力,最终成就了他的事业。由此可知Vijay对目标的执着是他成功的秘诀。故选C。
30.B 词义猜测题。根据第四段画线部分所在句的上文可知,Vijay的弟弟后来加入了他的事业,给他的公司加入了一些“财务规则”,Vijay认为他弟弟对他事业的成功很重要。结合语境可推断画线部分表示“我们在同一个屋檐下长大,彼此非常了解”,以此来说明他们配合默契,弟弟对他来说很重要。B项(我们互相了解得很透彻)符合语境,故选B。“from A to Z”意为“彻底地;从头至尾”。
31.A 主旨大意题。通读全文,文章介绍了白手起家的Vijay凭借雄心壮志,打拼到拥有一家每年营业额超过两亿英镑的制药公司的经历。故A项“从一文不名到百万富翁”最适合作为文章标题。故选A。

第二节
◎语篇解读 本文是一篇新闻报道。文章讲述了唐燕放弃有前途的事业,投身于拯救濒临失传的“北京绢人”艺术中,并介绍了她在创业过程中所遇到的挑战和困难以及她通过创新和改良来降低成本,最终成功创建了自己的品牌“唐娃娃”。
56.an 考查冠词。year是可数名词单数,此处表示“一整年”,表泛指,应用不定冠词;entire发音以元音音素开头,故填an。
57.potentially 考查副词。分析句子结构可知设空处作状语修饰动词cost,应用副词。故填potentially。
58.demanding 考查形容词。句意:“由于材料珍贵,手工艺技术要求高,一个绢人的成本可能相当于当时许多人的年薪。”唐说。分析句子结构可知,“ 58 handicraft techniques”与“precious materials”为and连接的并列的名词短语,共同作due to的宾语。由“precious materials”(“形容词+名词”形式)可知设空处应用形容词作定语修饰名词短语handicraft techniques;结合句意可知设空处表示“要求高的”,故填demanding。
59.drove 考查时态。本句是but连接的并列复合句,设空处作but后的分句的谓语。根据but前分句中的“were amazed”和语境可知此处叙述过去发生的事,应用一般过去时,故填drove。
60.what 考查宾语从句。句意:第一次失败教会了唐他们所需要的,即找到降低生产成本的方法。“ 60 they needed”为设空处引导的宾语从句,从句中needed缺少宾语,设空处表示“……的事物”,故填what。
61.adaptations 考查名词。句意:她对传统的绢人做了许多有创意和大胆的改编,比如用机器给衣服上色,从而把价格降到了原价的十分之一以下。根据空前的“many creative and bold”可知设空处应用名词;由语境可知设空处表示“改编,改编版”,应用名词adaptation。根据many可知,adaptation用复数形式,故填adaptations。
62.cutting 考查现在分词。句意同上。分析句子结构可知,句中已有谓语made,设空处应用非谓语动词形式。由语境可知此处表示自然而然的结果,因此应用现在分词作结果状语,故填cutting。
63.to lend 考查动词不定式。句意:然而,为了给娃娃增添精致感和工艺感,她保留了几道头发和妆容上的手工制作程序。本句已有谓语动词preserved,所以设空处用非谓语动词形式。根据句意可知此处表目的,用不定式作目的状语,故填to lend。
64.to 考查介词。句意:经过几十年对这一工艺的全身心投入,唐现在经营着自己的北京绢人产品品牌“唐娃娃”。固定搭配devotion to意为“对……的献身”,故填to。
65.were called 考查时态、语态和主谓一致。在引号中的第二句话中,When引导时间状语从句,设空处为主句的谓语动词,主句主语dolls与call之间是被动关系,应用被动语态。根据从句中的was可知用一般过去时,主语为复数,故填were called。

第二节
One possible version:
Before I knew it, I had only one day left for the project. In panic I hastily and quickly glued together what I pulled out from our recycle bin, my hands shaking with the weight of each hasty decision. The finished result looked miserable. Several of my classmates, including Nate, had created amazingly detailed constructions. They used materials like clay, wood and so on and were highly praised by Mr. Smith. When I saw their models, I felt even more embarrassed about mine. It was obvious that they had put a lot more time into the assignment than I had.
That taught me a great lesson. I learnt from that day the importance of deciding on my priorities and budgeting my time. From then on, I tackled things a lot earlier instead of putting things off until tomorrow. As a result, not only did I finish my tasks on time, but I also felt better because I didn t have to panic at the last minute. At the end of the semester, my work was chosen by Mr. Smith on another occasion. Seeing my change, my parents and my sister were so proud of me. It dawned on me that getting things done on time instead of being a procrastinator really counted.

第一节(共15小题;每小题2.5分,满分37.5分)
阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
A
Throughout history, great cities have risen and fallen. Some of them are seemingly lost in time—until artifacts(古物) that bring them back to life are discovered.
Teotihuacán
Located outside of Mexico City, Teotihuacán is thought to have been settled around 300 BC. By 600 AD, it was the most influential, powerful city in its region. Teotihuacán s real treasure is its massive step pyramids. Much of the city s history is still a mystery, but some believe that its decline resulted from changing climate conditions like long-term droughts.
Petra
This ancient city in southern Jordan flourished from 400 BC to 106 AD. It was an important place for spice and silk trade routes. Furthermore, it had a complicatedly-designed water management system. Petra was occupied by Rome in 106 AD, and the trade routes soon shifted. Hundreds of years later, earthquakes damaged the water system and Petra was abandoned.
Pompeii
Endless tales have been told about the tragedy of Pompeii, which occurred on August 24, in the year 79 AD, when the volcano Vesuvius erupted. The entire town was swiftly covered in ash and magma(岩浆). Everything was frozen in time. The site was unearthed in the 18th century, and the evidence found provided a great detail of insight into daily living in this ancient Italian city.
Ctesiphon
Located about 20 miles outside of Baghdad, Ctesiphon was one of the greatest cities in Western Asia in the 6th century. However, it was conquered(攻克) by Rome, and then by the Sassanid Empire. In 636 AD, it was captured by the Muslims. Many believe that the ancient city was the inspiration for the city of Isbanir mentioned in The Arabian Nights folk tales.
21.What do we know about Teotihuacán
A.Its history needs further exploration.
B.It was the most powerful city of its time.
C.It took about 400 years to reach its peak.
D.Its pyramids were ruined by climate change.
22.In which city can we learn about ancient Italian daily life
A.Teotihuacán. B.Petra.
C.Pompeii. D.Ctesiphon.
23.What do Petra and Ctesiphon have in common
A.They were sources of folk tales.
B.They fell into ruin due to natural disasters.
C.They were once defeated by Rome.
D.They were towns on the ancient Silk Road.
B
As I prepared for my Level 8 Royal Conservatory of Music piano exam, memories of previous disappointing marks filled me with dread and anxiety. The mere thought of booking the exam made me feel completely strained. However, fate had other plans in store for me.
Just when I thought things couldn t get any worse, my trusty 10-year-old electric piano malfunctioned. The middle C note played as an F-sharp, and multiple other keys were out of tune.
Despite my distress, my father refused to buy a new piano and instead urged me to be more resourceful. Initially, I was at a loss without my beloved electric piano. But after struggling for a few days, I decided to practice at school. Throughout my time at the private school, I was determined to find every available piano room on campus. After discovering hidden pianos in corners, I spent countless hours practicing. As my exam drew near, the music teachers knew exactly where to find me.
One day, while practicing in a piano room, one of my teachers walked in and offered me a mini exam. To my surprise, she was impressed by my progress and offered valuable feedback on how to improve my technique. My hard work and dedication paid off. Behind the piano, I found a place where I could be anyone.
Playing the piano became my escape from the anxieties of adolescence and allowed me to express myself freely. When it was time to play in front of the examiner, I no longer feared judgment. Instead, I only feared not being able to represent all my hard work. As the lights came on, I thought about the incredible journey that brought me to that moment.
Eventually, I received my mark. Not only did I achieve a rarely given “well done”, but I also discovered a newfound appreciation of music. Whenever I feel discouraged, I look at the gleaming keys of my new upright piano and remember the valuable lesson I learned. As my father always says, some lessons are best learned the hard way.
24.What happened to the author s electric piano
A.It played the wrong notes.
B.It stopped working.
C.It was sold by the author s father.
D.It was too old to use.
25.What can be inferred from paragraph 3
A.The author was dissatisfied with her father.
B.The father was angry about the author s bad behavior.
C.The author s family was too poor to afford a new piano.
D.The father wanted the author to address the problem independently.
26.Which of the following indicates the change of the author s feelings
A.Nervous-Disappointed-Angry-Calm.
B.Curious-Frustrated-Hopeful-Grateful.
C.Overwhelmed-Determined-Proud-Encouraged.
D.Depressed-Satisfied-Disappointed-Peaceful.
27.What did the author learn from her experience
A.Look before you leap.
B.Don t judge a book by its cover.
C.All that glitters is not gold.
D.God helps those who help themselves.
C
He came to Britain,16, with a handful of qualifications,￡5 in pocket and a burning ambition. Thirty-five years later, Vijay, 51, and his brother, Bhikhu, own a drug company which does ￡234 million worth of business each year. Together they are worth ￡280 million and now they have been jointly named “Entrepreneur of the Year”.
It is an inspirational tale. Yet despite their wealth and this award, Vijay remains modest about their success. He praises his mother, “She is an incredible lady. She taught us hard work and honesty, and we have based our lives on those qualities.”
In 1967, Vijay kissed his mother goodbye to London to make his fortune. “I had little more than my qualifications and ￡5,” says Vijay. “But to go with those, I had a huge ambition to make something of myself,” he recalls. Typically, Vijay looks on the bright side. “When you start from zero, things can t get any worse. You have only one way to go and that s up—if there is a hunger in your stomach for success,” Vijay says. “My brother and I made up our minds to better ourselves and Britain was the land of opportunity.” They wouldn t pass up the opportunity.
By 1982, he had owned six chemist s shops, when Bhikhu, a then financial analyst, joined him, adding some “financial disciplines” to his company. Vijay says, “I simply couldn t have done it without him.” As he puts it, “Brought up under one roof, we understand one another from A to Z.”
Vijay is keen to continue repaying the country where he has made his achievement. “We hope we are model citizens and would like to remain so,” he says. “We are lucky enough to live in a country that never stands in our way.” His message for young people is to do the same: “Identify your goal, and do not let anything discourage you from achieving that goal.”
28.What did Vijay possess when starting his business
A.￡280 million in cash.
B.A small drug company.
C.The title “Entrepreneur of the Year”.
D.Nothing but qualifications and an ambition.
29.What is the recipe for Vijay s success
A.His brother s financial aid.
B.His identity of the model citizen.
C.The perseverance in his goal.
D.Encouraging quotes from his mom.
30.Which can probably replace the underlined part in paragraph 4
A.We share something in common.
B.We know each other inside out.
C.We count on each other in careers.
D.We two together create fire and water.
31.Which of the following is a suitable title for the text
A.From Penniless to Millionaire
B.The Significance of Education
C.The Power of Deep Brotherhood
D.A Modest Successful Businessman
D
There are more than 28,000 routinely tracked objects orbiting Earth. The debris(残骸)is dominated by fragments from about 560 known breakups, explosions, and collisions of satellites or rocket bodies. Today s already active satellite infrastructure(基础设施)provides a multitude of critical services for modern society. Its loss would severely damage modern society.
Furthermore, a new era in space has just started, driven by commercial, low latency broadband services that rely on large constellations of satellites in low Earth orbit. These will revolutionize connectivity on the ground and in the air. However, they will also increase space traffic. Congestion(拥塞) in space is only going to get worse.
The debris decrease strategies defined two decades ago by experts in the world s leading space agencies aim to prevent explosive breakups by releasing remaining energy from space systems at the end of their missions, and to “get rid of” a space object. Although these strategies are widely recognized, dozens of large space objects are still left every year in critical orbital regions.
Progress can be made by advancing technology to ensure spaceflight safety. For example, the European Space Agency s Space Safety Programme is developing solutions that make disposal and energy passivation actions more fail-safe(有自动防故障功能的). “Deorbiting kits” will provide remaining energy and communication to ensure disposal of a spacecraft even after it stops working. A new field of “design-to-demise” will aim to replace critical components with less heat-resistant materials.
An internationally binding(有约束力的) system for the management of debris and space traffic is hanging. Thus far, space missions have been supervised on the national level only, and states have been encouraged to translate the non-binding space debris guidelines into national regulations. Furthermore, the implementation of space debris decrease requirements should be tracked, following internationally binding principles.
32.What will make the traffic jam in space severer
A.The space agency.
B.Satellite groups.
C.Broadband services.
D.Revolutionary connectivity.
33.Why did the experts make the strategies mentioned in paragraph 3
A.To end the mission in the space system.
B.To stop the objects from exploding in space.
C.To make the object re-enter the atmosphere.
D.To keep the objects in the critical orbital regions.
34.Which statement could the author agree with
A.Every country must have its own guidelines.
B.The international principle has been widely recognized.
C.Information about the space mission should not be shared.
D.Less heat-resistant materials for spacecraft should be used.
35.What is the main purpose of the text
A.To introduce the satellite infrastructure.
B.To call on people to focus on the internationally binding system.
C.To convey some helpful solutions to congestion in space.
D.To explain why low latency broadband services increase space traffic.

阅读下面短文,在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。
Tang Yan gave up a promising career in 1992 to save an almost lost art—the “Beijing silk figurine (北京绢人)”. In 1997, she established a studio with five other enthusiasts. Then they spent 56 entire year making several silk figurines, only to find there was no market for their products.
“A silk figurine could cost 57 (potential) the annual salary of many people at the time due to precious materials and 58 (demand) handicraft techniques,” Tang said. “Many potential customers were amazed at the beauty of our products, but their price 59 (drive) them away.”
The first failure taught Tang 60 they needed: finding ways to reduce production costs. She made many creative and bold 61 (adapt) of the traditional silk figurines, like using machines to paint the clothes, 62 (cut) the price to less than a tenth of the original one. However, 63 (lend) the dolls a sense of delicacy and craftsmanship, she preserved several handmade processes for hair and makeup.
After decades of wholehearted devotion 64 the craft, Tang now runs her own Beijing silk figurine product brand “Tang Wawa”. “Girls in China need their own dolls. When I was little, dolls 65 (call) yangwawa, meaning Western dolls.” Tang continued, “I wanted to create dolls bearing a cultural connection with Chinese people.”

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。
Most people think that procrastination (拖延症) is a negative habit. But people like me who routinely put off doing assignments, are likely to defend our “slower” approach to getting tasks done.
I m the only one who has procrastination in my family. My parents and sister were all born with the “do it right now” gift. They are always in a rush, as if closely rushed by an invisible deadline. Personally, I prefer a more relaxed pace. When my parents voiced their concern about my tendencies, saying “Don t put off until tomorrow what you can do today,” “No way!” I responded, confidently presenting my research as a defense. It says people procrastinate when they need to solve a problem or commit to a topic or project. In these cases, delaying a decision can be beneficial. This is because our minds continue to reflect on problems even when we are not actively thinking about them, which could lead to more creative solutions. My findings filled me with satisfaction and pride. My method of getting things done was just as good as my sister s...or so I thought.
At school we d been talking about architecture and design. As part of the final assessment my teacher Mr. Smith announced an exciting project that each student would have a month to complete. We were expected to choose our materials, construct a small building and make use of things we had learned in class. Not only would the winners receive extra credits, but the winning constructions would be proudly displayed in the cafeteria. “I don t have a clue how I could get it done,” my friend Nate sighed in despair. I didn t say anything. Not because I shared his anxiety—but because I was not nervous at all. I loved hands-on projects! Picturing my brilliant work exhibited in the cafeteria, I was fully convinced that I would definitely produce something that could impress everyone. So relaxed was I that I didn t give it a second thought for weeks.
注意:续写词数应为150个左右。
Before I knew it, I had only one day left for the project.
That taught me a great lesson.

22.C 细节理解题。根据题干中的关键词“ancient Italian daily life”可定位到Pompeii部分中的最后一句(该遗址于18世纪被发掘,所发现的证据为了解这座意大利古城中的日常生活提供了很多细节)。由此可知,在Pompeii我们可以了解古代意大利人的日常生活。故选C。
23.C 细节理解题。根据Petra部分中的“Petra was occupied by Rome in 106 AD(公元106年,Petra被罗马占领)”和Ctesiphon部分中的“it was conquered by Rome, and then by the Sassanid Empire(它先是被罗马攻克,然后又被拜占庭帝国攻克)”可知,Petra和Ctesiphon的共同点是都曾被罗马打败。故选C。
B

25.D 推理判断题。根据第三段第一句“尽管我很忧虑,父亲还是拒绝给我买一架新钢琴,反而敦促我要更足智多谋”和倒数第二、三句“在我所有在这所私立学校的日子里,我决心找到学校里每一间可以用的钢琴室。在角落里发现隐藏的钢琴后,我花了无数个小时练习。”可推知,父亲拒绝给作者买新钢琴是为了让作者独立解决问题,并且事实证明,作者做到了,她利用学校的钢琴进行练习。故选D。
26.C 细节理解题。文中信息和作者的情感对应情况如下表:
信息句位置 文章原句 作者感情
第三段第二句 Initially, I was at a loss without my beloved electric piano. 不知所措
第三段第四句 Throughout my time at the private school, I was determined to find every available piano room on campus. 下定决心

由此可知,C项(不知所措的—坚定的—自豪的—受到鼓舞的)符合作者的感情变化。故选C。
27.D 推理判断题。通读全文可知,文章主要讲述了作者在考试前电子琴出故障了,但父亲拒绝帮助她,让她自己解决,作者在挣扎了几天后决定去学校练习,通过自己的努力取得了好成绩的故事。作者由此体会到了主动、独立解决问题的重要性。由此推知,作者从她的经历中学到了“天助自助者”这个道理。故选D。

30.B 词义猜测题。根据第四段画线部分所在句的上文可知,Vijay的弟弟后来加入了他的事业,给他的公司加入了一些“财务规则”,Vijay认为他弟弟对他事业的成功很重要。结合语境可推断画线部分表示“我们在同一个屋檐下长大,彼此非常了解”,以此来说明他们配合默契,弟弟对他来说很重要。B项(我们互相了解得很透彻)符合语境,故选B。“from A to Z”意为“彻底地;从头至尾”。
31.A 主旨大意题。通读全文,文章介绍了白手起家的Vijay凭借雄心壮志,打拼到拥有一家每年营业额超过两亿英镑的制药公司的经历。故A项“从一文不名到百万富翁”最适合作为文章标题。故选A。

第二节
◎语篇解读 本文是一篇新闻报道。文章讲述了唐燕放弃有前途的事业,投身于拯救濒临失传的“北京绢人”艺术中,并介绍了她在创业过程中所遇到的挑战和困难以及她通过创新和改良来降低成本,最终成功创建了自己的品牌“唐娃娃”。
56.an 考查冠词。year是可数名词单数,此处表示“一整年”,表泛指,应用不定冠词;entire发音以元音音素开头,故填an。
57.potentially 考查副词。分析句子结构可知设空处作状语修饰动词cost,应用副词。故填potentially。
58.demanding 考查形容词。句意:“由于材料珍贵,手工艺技术要求高,一个绢人的成本可能相当于当时许多人的年薪。”唐说。分析句子结构可知,“ 58 handicraft techniques”与“precious materials”为and连接的并列的名词短语,共同作due to的宾语。由“precious materials”(“形容词+名词”形式)可知设空处应用形容词作定语修饰名词短语handicraft techniques;结合句意可知设空处表示“要求高的”,故填demanding。
59.drove 考查时态。本句是but连接的并列复合句,设空处作but后的分句的谓语。根据but前分句中的“were amazed”和语境可知此处叙述过去发生的事,应用一般过去时,故填drove。
60.what 考查宾语从句。句意:第一次失败教会了唐他们所需要的,即找到降低生产成本的方法。“ 60 they needed”为设空处引导的宾语从句,从句中needed缺少宾语,设空处表示“……的事物”,故填what。
61.adaptations 考查名词。句意:她对传统的绢人做了许多有创意和大胆的改编,比如用机器给衣服上色,从而把价格降到了原价的十分之一以下。根据空前的“many creative and bold”可知设空处应用名词;由语境可知设空处表示“改编,改编版”,应用名词adaptation。根据many可知,adaptation用复数形式,故填adaptations。
62.cutting 考查现在分词。句意同上。分析句子结构可知,句中已有谓语made,设空处应用非谓语动词形式。由语境可知此处表示自然而然的结果,因此应用现在分词作结果状语,故填cutting。
63.to lend 考查动词不定式。句意:然而,为了给娃娃增添精致感和工艺感,她保留了几道头发和妆容上的手工制作程序。本句已有谓语动词preserved,所以设空处用非谓语动词形式。根据句意可知此处表目的,用不定式作目的状语,故填to lend。
64.to 考查介词。句意:经过几十年对这一工艺的全身心投入,唐现在经营着自己的北京绢人产品品牌“唐娃娃”。固定搭配devotion to意为“对……的献身”,故填to。
65.were called 考查时态、语态和主谓一致。在引号中的第二句话中,When引导时间状语从句,设空处为主句的谓语动词,主句主语dolls与call之间是被动关系,应用被动语态。根据从句中的was可知用一般过去时,主语为复数,故填were called。

All of our fellow students are looking forward to the contest.

第二节
One possible version:
Before I knew it, I had only one day left for the project. In panic I hastily and quickly glued together what I pulled out from our recycle bin, my hands shaking with the weight of each hasty decision. The finished result looked miserable. Several of my classmates, including Nate, had created amazingly detailed constructions. They used materials like clay, wood and so on and were highly praised by Mr. Smith. When I saw their models, I felt even more embarrassed about mine. It was obvious that they had put a lot more time into the assignment than I had.
That taught me a great lesson. I learnt from that day the importance of deciding on my priorities and budgeting my time. From then on, I tackled things a lot earlier instead of putting things off until tomorrow. As a result, not only did I finish my tasks on time, but I also felt better because I didn t have to panic at the last minute. At the end of the semester, my work was chosen by Mr. Smith on another occasion. Seeing my change, my parents and my sister were so proud of me. It dawned on me that getting things done on time instead of being a procrastinator really counted.
