Section B (每题2分，共22分)
Directions: Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.
A
A study by French researchers that was published last month in the Journal Animal Cognition found that not only do cats react to what scientists call cat-directed speech ---- a high-pitched voice similar to how we talk to babies ---- they react to who is doing the talking
“We found that when cats heard their owners using a high-pitched voice, they reacted more than when they heard their owner speaking normally to another human adult,” said Charlotte de Mouzon, an author of the study and cat behavior expert at the Université Paris Nanterre. “But what was very surprising in our results was that it actually didn’t work when it came from a stranger’s voice.”
Unlike with dogs, cat behavior is difficult to study, which is part of why humans understand them less. Cats are often so stressed by being in a lab that meaningful behavioral observations become impossible. And forget about trying to get a cat to sit still for an M.R.I. scan to study its brain function.
So the researchers for the latest study went to the cats’ homes and played recordings of different types of speech and different speakers. At first, Dr. de Mouzon and her team were worried that the cats weren’t reacting at all. But then they studied film recordings of the encounters. “Their reactions were very subtle,” Dr. de Mouzon said. “It could be just moving an ear or turning the head towards the speaker or even freezing what they were doing.”
In a few cases, the cats in the study would approach the speaker playing a voice and meow. “In the end, we had really clear gains in the cat’s attention when the owner was using cat-directed speech,” Dr. de Mouzon said.
The findings showed that “cats are paying close attention to their caretakers, down to not only what they are saying, but how they are saying it,” said Kristyn Vitale, an assistant professor of animal health an behavior at Unity College in Maine who was not involved in the new study.
The new study complements Dr. Vitale’s own research into relationships between a cat and its owner. This relationship is so important, Dr. Vitale’s research has found, that it replicates (复制) the connection between a kitten and its mother. “It is possible that attachment behaviors originally intended for interactions with their mother have now been modified for interactions with their new caretakers, humans.”
“For years, scientists didn’t ask the right questions about cats,” Dr. de Mouzon said. Now those who are convinced of the X of cats won’t like the answers that are emerging. Cats don’t hate us after all, Dr. Vitale said, adding that “a growing body of work supports the idea that social interaction with humans is key in the life of a cat.”
21．What kind of voice will attract cats’ attention most according to the article
A．Their owners’ ordinary voice. B．A high-pitched voice from a baby.
C．A high-pitched voice from a stranger. D．The cat-directed speech from their owners.
22．What does the underlined “X” in last paragraph probably stand for
A．disloyalty B．cuteness C．naughtiness D．enthusiasm
23．Which of the following can be inferred from the article
A．Cats pay as much attention to their owners as dogs do.
B．A cat’s attachment to its owner probably resembles that to its mother.
C．People understand dogs more than cats because the former are more loyal.
D．Many believe and appreciate the fact that cats are somewhat indifferent to humans.
24．What is the passage mainly about
A．The social interaction between cats and humans is important to cats’ life.
B．Those convinced that cats are cold disapprove of the opposing evidence.
C．Cats actually pay close attention to their owners when treated properly.
D．Cats actually treat their owners in a similar way as they treat their mothers.
B
Cook’s last tour
Until recently Captain James Cook was not a particularly controversial figure. But in January a statue of the 18th-century British explorer was pushed over in Melbourne and the words “The colony will fall” painted on the base. In Hawaii a monument in Cook’s memory has been covered with red paint and the message “You are on native land.” Cook has joined Edward Colston and Cecil Rhodes as a focus of anti-colonialist anger.
Yet Cook was neither a slave trader nor much of an imperialist. He was, first and foremost, a brilliant navigator and mapmaker. Acting under government orders, he undertook three pioneering voyages in the Pacific between 1768 and 1779. His map-making transformed Europeans knowledge of the world’s largest ocean.
An excellent new book draws on Cook’s letters and notebooks to tell the story of his third and final trip. Cook was almost 50 when he set off on HMS Resolution in July 1776. Cook had secret instructions from the government not only to claim new territory for Britain, but to search for a north west passage via the Bering Strait, a task even someone with his navigational experience found impossible.
The author, Hampton Sides, focuses on Cook’s return to Australia and New Zealand — countries the explorer had first encountered almost a decade earlier — his discovery of the Society Islands and his time in Hawaii. It was there, in February 1779, that he was killed after a failed attempt to kidnap a local chief in response to the theft of a longboat.
Cook was a man of his era. He believed Europe would have a civilising influence on many benighted (愚昧无知的) folk in the Pacific. He was cruel when carrying out punishments to his own crew as well as to any native people who opposed him.
At the same time, Cook admired many of the people and places he encountered in the South Pacific. Unlike the Spanish, he had no interest in religious conversion. He tried hard to stop his men from spreading disease. For the most part, his land claims were aimed not at promoting a British empire but preventing grabs by its rivals, France and Spain.
As the author makes clear, there is a balance to be struck between justified admiration for Cook’s seamanship and a justifiable hatred for the colonialism that followed native peoples’ first contact with Europeans. Today many Western countries are divided over how to think about such vexed legacies (棘手的后遗症). In 2020 half of Britons thought it was right that Colston’s statue was removed. Cook’s statue still stands in London, as does Rhodes’s in Oxford. The question is whether they will enjoy their high positions much longer.
25．How do the public regard Cook currently
A．He is nobler than Colston and Rhodes. B．He is not a controversial historic figure.
C．They blame the fall of the colony on him. D．Some people regard Cook as a colonialist.
26．During Cook’s first voyage in the Pacific Ocean, he _________.
A．landed the Society Islands and New Zealand B．commanded a warship called HMS Resolution
C．searched for a route by way of the Bering Strait D．was revenged on a local chief for stealing a boat
27．Cook’s behaviour can be described as ________.
A．patriotic and religious B．well-intentioned and iron-handed
C．charitable and moral D．rebellious and awe-inspiring
28．Which of the following does Hampton Sides, the author of a book on Cook agree with
A．It is justifiable to remove Colston’s, Cook’s and Rhodes’s statue.
B．Cook mainly aimed to expand domains by grabbing land from Spain.
C．We should view Cook’s adventure and British colonialism objectively.
D．The vexed legacies result from division in whether to remove the statues.
C
Hopping Around the World
Hopscotch is a very old game. It usually uses a puck, such as a stone, and a pattern that players hop through. Here are different versions to play.
Scotch-HoppersChildren in England and Scotland play this game with a stone or a coin. Throw the stone into Box 1. Hop over Box 1 and through the pattern. On the way back, hop into Box 1, pick up the stone, and hop out. Then, toss the puck into Box 2, and so on. If your stone enters the wrong box, start over! The first player to throw the stone into each box and hop through the whole pattern wins. Escargot Escargot is the French word for “snail.” For this game, the pattern looks like a snail. No puck is used. Players hop through the pattern on one foot. You may rest in the center on both feet. After resting, hop back through the pattern and out. If you finish the pattern without stepping on a line, write your name in a space. No other player may land in that space. At the end, the player who owns the most spaces wins.
La Thunkuna Children play this game in Bolivia, a country in South America. The puck is a stone or the peel from an orange. Instead of writing a number in each square, players write each day of the week. Throw the puck into the first box. Hop over it into the second box. Next, kick the puck backwards and out of the pattern. Then, hop out. On your next turn, throw the puck into the next space, and so on. The first player to hop all the way through wins. Gat Fei Gei In this Chinese version of hopscotch, the puck is a piece of roof tile. At the top is the pig’s head. Toss the puck into the pig’s head and hop through the pattern. When you reach boxes 7 and 8, spin around and pick up the puck from behind. If you hop through the pattern without making a mistake, pick a box and write your name in it. No one else can land in that box! The player who owns the most boxes wins.
29．What are the two common things used in hopscotch
A．Coin and pin. B．Box and chair. C．Snail and space. D．Puck and pattern.
30．Which of the following shows the difference of Escargot from other hopscotches
A．It needs more space. B．It doesn’t need a puck.
C．It is a snail from France. D．It isn’t a pattern but a line.
31．What is the passage mainly talking about
A．The successful winners in the hopscotch.
B．The history and development of hopscotch.
C．The rules of different versions of hopscotch.
D．The popularity of hopscotch all over the world.
Section C (每题2分，共8分)
Directions: Read the following passage. Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box. Each sentence can be used only once. Note that there are two more sentences than you need.
Google is my doctor
When illustrator Scott Adams lost his voice, his doctors were confused. 32 It turned out that Scott was suffering from spasmodic dysphonia-a neurological disorder affecting the muscles to voice. With the help of Google Alerts and advice from his doctors, Scott got in touch with an expert in the US and had special surgery on his throat to cure his problem. He is now a firm believer of using the Internet for self-diagnosis.
Adams is one of an increasing number of people who have started using the Internet to get health advice. The advantages are numerous, starting of course with the obvious convenience of getting a diagnosis from the comfort of your own home. 33 But the Internet can provide a vast number of specialized experts, and Googling can help you tap in to that.
Diagnosing minor medical problems from information on the Internet can also have an impact on society’s medical costs. You can compare insect bites with Internet pictures, ask what type they are and whether they are dangerous without wasting your busy doctor’s precious time.
However, it must be said that diagnosis is tricky, and comparing your rash(疹子) with an online photo may lead you down the wrong path. 34 Doctors also take into account your medical history, state of mind, etc. So no computerized symptoms checklist can equal a complete professional assessment.
In conclusion, the Internet is a good starting point in diagnosing your health problems, but you should always consult your doctor before acting on anything you find there. 35 .
A．On a professional level, there is no way one doctor car be an expert in everything.
B．It was not until he turned to the Internet that he managed to identify his condition.
C．This condition was the very one that made him unable to speak
D．Appearance provides only ten percent of the information needed to make a diagnosis.
E．Do not underestimate the value of talking to real people — doctors and telephone helplines will help you put what you read into context.
F．To sum up, if your doctor refuses to talk to you, the Internet will give you a better solution.
III. Reading Comprehension (45分)
Section A (每题1分，共15分)
Directions: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.
“It’s almost a moral duty that museums should be free,” said Glenn Lowry, director of the Museum of Modern Art (MOMA) in 2002, when a ticket to MOMA cost $12. In October MOMA started charging $30, the latest in a series of price 36 involving the Metropolitan Museum, the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art and so on.
Higher energy and labour costs have pushed up ticket prices in Europe, too. Prices have remained 37 only in Asia and the Middle East, where museums are younger and state funding is especially generous.
Ticket fees may seem high, particularly in destination cities where tourists are 38 to be discouraged by spending a few more dollars. But whatever museums 39 , it is not covering their operating costs. The Association of Art Museum Directors reported in 2018 that ticket sales accounted on average for just 7% of total 40 at American art museums. Memberships contributed another 7%. The 41 of budgets usually come from charitable donations, grants and retail operations.
European museums are less 42 admissions fees, because they are often heavily subsidized (补助) by governments. All national institutions in Britain offer free admission, as do most state-run museums in China while in America some 30% are free. Some observers have repeated Mr Lowry’s call for museum to stop charging for 43 entirely.
44 price s go against museums’goal of sharing art with a more diverse public. They could also speed up the already steep decline in the share of Americans attending museums and galleries.
Declining public interest is a challenge for institutions that rely heavily on public support. Those who choose not to visit a museum today may be the people who 45 government subsidies or refuse to write personal cheques as sponsors in a few years. Those who spend time inside museums’galleries are more likely to grasp their richness and want to 46 their own riches in them.
Yet significantly reducing costs may not actually do much to 47 new audiences either. If tickets were free, “people who typically come anyway might come more often. 48 that, you’re not really changing your demographic (观众结构), says an economist who studies pricing in the arts. He 49 museums to the best American university: Harvard could afford to make tuition free for all, but many wealthy students who do not need the gift would be among the biggest beneficiaries(受益者). As museums throughout the West debate what price is right, most are unlikely to conclude the answer is 50 , “moral duty” or not.

37．A．ascending B．flexible C．awe-inspiring D．stable

The future is grey
An aging world will oblige us to change how we live
Much is made of intergenerational conflicts, with baby boomers competing against millennials or Gen Zers. But however these competing needs are resolved today, younger people will become a 51 (prized) resource in the future, because there will be fewer of them.
Populations are slowly growing older than ever before due to two seemingly unstoppable demographic (人口的) forces. One is 52 , as countries become more prosperous, there is a decline in the number of children that people have. When that figure drops below the population replacement level of 2.1 children per woman—— 53 it is offset (抵消) by immigration—the head count shrinks as well as becoming more senior-heavy. If this trend continues, 97 percent of countries are forecast 54 (have) birthrates below the replacement level by the year 2100.
The other key factor is that people are living longer in nearly every country in the world, a trend 55 has continued for decades. This 56 (drive) by multiple factors over the past century, including improvements in sanitation (公共卫生), the spread of vaccines and antibiotics, and, later on, by better treatments for heart disease and the decline of smoking. The next reshaping of life expectancy curves could come from the widespread use of weight- 57 (reduce) drugs such as Ozempic, or indeed medicines already in wide use today.
These ageing populations present many challenges, forcing countries to rethink their systems of pensions, healthcare and so on. The risk is that there will be too few people of working age to help provide care for 58 who are older.
But we 59 not necessarily be too pessimistic. Just like in medicine, advances in artificial intelligence and robotics are continuing rapidly. Could the potential demographic crisis be prevented by a workforce of intelligent machines If so, 60 having to be worried about robots taking our jobs, we might one day welcome them with open arms.
五、选词填空
Directions: Fill in each blank with a proper word chosen from the box. Each word can be used only once. Note that there is one word more than you need.

Gather together a couple of good friends and take a leisurely walk through the streets—this is what many youngsters in China enjoy doing when they visit a new city.
Citywalk can be a(n) 61 trip tailor-made for a small group of people organized by a travel agency, or simply a leisurely walk for once or two to explore new areas, sticking to the key point: avoiding famous scenic spots and big crowds to gain a more 62 experience of the places you visit. That is to say, you are given the freedom to explore endless possibilities.
Hashtags (话题标签) and keywords for Citywalk are currently 63 across multiple Chinese social media platforms, as more and more people look to share their experiences and thoughts online.
In China, the Citywalk trend is spreading from 64 cities like Beijing and Shanghai to second and third-tier cities, encouraging more participants and event organizers to get involved. Some organizers invite folk culture 65 to act as tour guides. Xiao Yiyi is a young entrepreneur (创业者) based in Changsha 66 new possibilities in the tourism sector. Recently she launched six Citywalk routes in different cities on her social media account, with the aim of providing experiences for visitors to walk in “open-air museums”, an approach for young people to 67 with a city. Xiao Yiyi said her events usually last around half a day.
Beijing and Shandong have included Citywalk in their plans to promote cultural tourism and leisure tours. Shanghai has established Citywalk routes using public bus routes to help 68 reach more remote districts by public transport and continue on foot.
Even though Citywalk is a relatively new phenomenon, industry insiders say that its 69 is huge. Many tour guides also try to expand their influence online, sharing their experiences to attract potential customers.
Citywalk is offer ng a positive change to urban travelers as they can better choose the experiences that correspond with their interests and needs. At the same time, Citywalk represents an opportunity for tour guides to offer a more 70 , professional service to meet with ever-changing market demands.
六、书面表达
71．Directions: Read the following passage. Summarize the main idea and the main point(s) of the passage in no more than 60 words. Use your own words as far as possible.
Why Gen Z Is Leaving Cities for the Countryside
In recent years, there has been a noticeable trend of Gen Z individuals relocating from cities to the countryside.
This generation, born between the mid-1990s and early 2010s, is known for its preference for experiences over material possessions and a desire to lead a more sustainable lifestyle. As a result, many young people are leaving urban areas in pursuit of a slower pace of life and closer connection with nature.
The appeal of country living for Gen Z stems from multiple factors. Firstly, it offers a slower pace of life, which can be a welcome change from the hustle and bustle of city living. This can be particularly beneficial for those who struggle with anxiety or stress-related issues. Moreover, there is greater access to nature and outdoor activities such as hiking, camping and fishing. This not only promotes physical health but also helps to develop a deeper connection with the natural world. Also, living in the countryside often means lower living costs and less competition for jobs, making it an attractive option for those just starting out in their careers.
Some believe that technology has completely captured the attention of the younger generation, and they are therefore reluctant to leave the conveniences and excitement of the modern city. Actually, it is precisely this technological advancement that has facilitated the shift towards rural living among Gen Z. With remote work becoming increasingly common, young adults are no longer tied to urban centers for employment. They can work from anywhere with a reliable internet connection. Additionally, social media platforms have made it easier for individuals to share their rural lifestyles and connect with others who have similar interests. This virtual community fosters a sense of belonging and encourages young people to explore and appreciate the natural beauty of countryside.

The mobile I’m talking about is an object of decoration hanging from the ceiling and moving gently with every breath. It delights both children and adults. This cute creation was the work of an American artist named Alexander Calder.
Calder became interested in making things when he was a child. He often used wire in his constructions. When he went to college, he studied engineering. But he quickly realized art was his real passion. He also loved the circus, and many of his early artworks were small circus figures made of wire. In 1930, Calder turned realistic wire figures into abstract ones. He began constructing objects that have circles, squares and other shapes. Then he went one step beyond these early mobiles. He got the shapes in his construction s to move by themselves.
A mobile may look simple as it shifts in the wind, but require careful construction to work properly. Calder used his engineering knowledge to create his first mobiles. They consisted of small pieces of metal strung by wire to a base. Calder also found the precise point to connect each wire so that all the pieces would move in harmony. In doing so, he created an art form for people worldwide to enjoy.
Questions:
14. What is Alexander Calder’s real passion
15. What do we learn about many of Alexander Calder’s early artworks
16. According to the passage, which of the following is true about a mobile

【原文】
The dynamic city of New York is home to a hidden treasure of history. Once a railway track receiving little attention, the High Line has been transformed into a quiet urban place, offering a unique perspective of the city from above. The park is lined with beautiful gardens, artistic displays, and walking paths, attracting millions of visitors each year.
But the history of the High Line goes back much further than its transformation into a park. Built in the 1930s, the High Line was originally used to transport goods between factories and industrial facilities along Manhattan’s West Side. However, with the rise of trucking in the mid-20th century, the railway fell into disuse and was abandoned by the 1980s.
It wasn’t until the early 2000s that the idea of turning the High Line into a public park gained popularity. Community activists, artists, and urban planners came together to imagine a new use for this historic structure. After years of planning and development, the first section of the park opened to the public in 2009, with additional sections opening in the following years.
Today, the High Line stands as a demonstration to the power of community cooperation and innovative urban design. Visitors can wander along its raised paths, enjoying views of the city skyline, greenery, and unique art work along the way.
Questions:
11. When did the transformation of the High Line into a park begin
12. What caused the High Line railway to be abandoned in the 1980s
13. What is the speaker mainly talking about

【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要讲述了如果被对待得当，猫实际上会密切关注它们的主人。
21．细节理解题。根据文章第二段“We found that when cats heard their owners using a high-pitched voice, they reacted more than when they heard their owner speaking normally to another human adult,” said Charlotte de Mouzon, an author of the study and cat behavior expert at the Université Paris Nanterre.”（我们发现，当猫听到主人用高音调说话时，它们的反应比听到主人正常对另一个成年人说话时更强烈。）可知，猫主人用高音调对猫说话时，最吸猫的注意力。故选D。
22．词句猜测题。根据文章最后一段“For years, scientists didn’t ask the right questions about cats,”Dr. de Mouzon said. Now those who are convinced of the X of cats won’t like the answers that are emerging. Cats don’t hate us after all, Dr. Vitale said, adding that “a growing body of work supports the idea that social interaction with humans is key in the life of a cat.”（多年来，科学家们没有对猫提出正确的问题，德穆宗博士说。现在，那些坚信猫的X的人不会喜欢正在出现的答案。猫毕竟不讨厌我们，Vitale博士说，他补充说，“越来越多的工作支持这样一个观点，即与人类的社交互动是猫生活的关键。”）可推知，X可能指的是猫的不忠诚，故选A。
23．推理判断题。根据文章倒数第二段“It is possible that attachment behaviors originally intended for interactions with their mother have now been modified for interactions with their new caretakers, humans.”（可能，最初用于与母亲互动的依恋行为现在已经被修改为与新的照顾者，人类的互动。）可推知，猫对主人的依恋可能类似于对母亲的依恋，故选B。
24．主旨大意题。根据第六段“The findings showed that “cats are paying close attention to their caretakers, down to not only what they are saying, but how they are saying it,” said Kristyn Vitale, an assistant professor of animal health an behavior at Unity College in Maine who was not involved in the new study.”（缅因州联合学院动物健康与行为学助理教授克里斯汀·维塔尔(Kristyn Vitale)没有参与这项新研究，她说，研究结果表明，“猫对照顾它们的人非常关注，不仅关注它们在说什么，还关注它们说话的方式。）可知，文章主要讲述了如果被对待得当，猫实际上会密切关注它们的主人。故选C项。
25．D 26．A 27．B 28．C
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章概述了詹姆斯·库克船长的历史形象和现代争议。库克是一位杰出的航海家和制图师，但因殖民主义背景而受到现代反殖民情绪的冲击。文章通过库克的信件和作家的分析，展示了他的复杂性：既是探险家也是殖民者。
25．细节理解题。根据第一段中“But in January a statue of the 18th-century British explorer was pushed over in Melbourne and the words “The colony will fall” painted on the base. In Hawaii a monument in Cook’s memory has been covered with red paint and the message “You are on native land.” Cook has joined Edward Colston and Cecil Rhodes as a focus of anti-colonialist anger. (但今年1月，这位18世纪英国探险家的雕像在墨尔本被推倒，底座上写着“殖民地将沦陷”的字样。在夏威夷，一座纪念Cook的纪念碑被涂上了红漆，上面写着“你在原住民土地上”。Cook与Edward Colston和Cecil Rhodes一样，成为反殖民主义愤怒的焦点)”可知，目前有些人认为Cook是殖民主义者。故选D项。
26．细节理解题。根据第四段中“The author, Hampton Sides, focuses on Cook’s return to Australia and New Zealand—countries the explorer had first encountered almost a decade earlier—his discovery of the Society Islands and his time in Hawaii. (作者Hampton Sides将重点放在库克回到澳大利亚和新西兰——这位探险家在近10年前第一次遇到这两个国家——他发现了社会群岛，并在夏威夷度过了一段时间)”可知，Cook在太平洋的第一次航行中，登陆了社会群岛和新西兰。故选A项。
27．推理判断题。根据第五段中“He was cruel when carrying out punishments to his own crew as well as to any native people who opposed him. (他在惩罚自己的船员和任何反对他的土著人时都很残忍)”可知，Cook有残忍的一面；根据第六段中“Unlike the Spanish, he had no interest in religious conversion. He tried hard to stop his men from spreading disease. (与西班牙人不同，他对宗教皈依不感兴趣。他竭力阻止部下传播疾病)”可知，他在航海中也有善意的一面，阻止部下传播疾病。因此，他的行为可以用善意和铁腕来形容。故选B项。
28．推理判断题。根据最后一段中“As the author makes clear, there is a balance to be struck between justified admiration for Cook’s seamanship and a justifiable hatred for the colonialism that followed native peoples’ first contact with Europeans. (正如作者明确指出的那样，在对Cook航海技术的合理钦佩和对原住民与欧洲人第一次接触后出现的殖民主义的合理仇恨之间，需要找到一个平衡)”可推知，该书的作者认为我们应该客观地看待Cook的冒险和英国殖民主义。故选C项。
29．D 30．B 31．C
【导语】本文是一篇应用文。文章主要介绍了世界各地不同版本的跳房子。
29．细节理解题。根据第一段中“Hopscotch is a very old game. It usually uses a puck, such as a stone, and a pattern that players hop through(跳房子游戏是一种非常古老的游戏。它通常使用一个冰球，比如一块石头，以及一个让玩家跳跃的图案。)”可知，跳房子游戏中最常用的两种东西是冰球和图案。故选D。
30．细节理解题。根据Scotch-Hoppers部分中的“Children in England and Scotland play this game with a stone or a coin. (英格兰和苏格兰的孩子们用石头或硬币玩这个游戏。)”，Escargot部分中的“No puck is used.(不使用冰球)”，La Thunkuna部分中的“The puck is a stone or the peel from an orange(冰球是一块石头或橙子皮)”和Gat Fei Gei部分中的“In this Chinese version of hopscotch, the puck is a piece of roof tile. (在这个中国版的跳房子游戏中，冰球是一块屋顶瓦片)”可知，Escargot 与其他跳房子的不同之处在于它不需要冰球。故选B。
31．主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是标题“Hopping Around the World(世界各地的跳房子)”和第一段“Hopscotch is a very old game. It usually uses a puck, such as a stone, and a pattern that players hop through. Here are different versions to play.(跳房子游戏是一种非常古老的游戏。它通常使用一个冰球，比如一块石头，以及一个让玩家跳跃的图案。这里有不同的版本。)”可知，文章主要介绍了世界上不同版本跳房子游戏的规则。故选C。

34．上文“However, it must be said that diagnosis is tricky, and comparing your rash with an online photo may lead you down the wrong path.”（然而，必须指出的是，诊断是很棘手的，将你的皮疹与网上的照片进行比较可能会让你走上错误的道路。）说明只依靠图片在线诊断也可能有误，D项“Appearance provides only ten percent of the information needed to make a diagnosis.”（外观只提供诊断所需信息的百分之十。）衔接上文，说明只依靠图片诊断有误的原因，引出下文“Doctors also take into account your medical history, state of mind, etc.”（医生还会考虑你的病史、精神状态等。）说明完整的诊断还需要考虑其他因素，衔接恰当。故选D项。

There are various reasons for Gen Z’s leaving cities for the countryside .For example, the slower life pace of rural living relieves anxiety; outdoor activities benefit physical health and draw people closer to nature; lower living cost and less job competition also attract young people.
Internet connection and social media platforms enable them to work remotely and be connected with others, which can make life convenient and enjoyable.
【点睛】[高分句型1] The slower life pace of rural living relieves anxiety; outdoor activities benefit physical health and draw people closer to nature; lower living cost and less job competition also attract young people. 运用了几个分句来描述Z世代离开城市去农村的原因，表达高级。

72．It was the result of the flood that made people fully realize the importance of planting trees.
【详解】考查强调句、固定结构和名词。根据句意，该句为强调句型“it is…that…”，强调主语“这场洪水的结果”，该句描述的为过去发生的事情，所以此处使用一般过去时，it位于句首，首字母需大写，所以译为It was the result of the flood that，表示“使人们充分意识到”应为“make+宾语+do”结构，用于一般过去时，谓语动词应为made，表示“人们”应为people作宾语，表示“充分认识”应为fully realize作宾补，其中fully作状语修饰realize，表示“植树的重要性”应为the importance of planting trees作realize的宾语，planting trees作介词of的宾语。故翻译为It was the result of the flood that made people fully realize the importance of planting trees.
73．Realizing that his conceit and incompetence had brought serious consequences, the surgeon obviously had a queasy feeling in his stomach, the sweat on his forehead signing anxiety.
【详解】考查独立主格结构和时态。主语“这位外科医生”the surgeon，“忐忑不安”使用动词短语have a queasy feeling in his stomach，句子描述过去的情况，应用一般过去时，动词使用过去式形式had作句子谓语，“显然”使用副词obviously作状语，修饰动词had，“他额头上的汗水”the sweat on his forehead，“正是焦虑的迹象”即“示意他的焦虑”，译为sign anxiety，sign与逻辑主语sweat之间是主动关系，应用现在分词形式表示主动，构成独立主格结构，“意识到”realize，与逻辑主语the surgeon之间是主动关系，使用现在分词形式作状语，后接that引导的宾语从句，从句主语“他的自负和无能”his conceit and incompetence，“带来”bring，结合语意可知，“带来严重后果”这一动作发生在“忐忑不安”之前，为“过去的过去”，所以从句应用过去完成时，即had brought，后接宾语“严重后果”serious consequence，consequence为可数名词，应用其复数形式表示泛指。故翻译为Realizing that his conceit and incompetence had brought serious consequences, the surgeon obviously had a queasy feeling in his stomach, the sweat on his forehead signing anxiety.
74．Why not try to talk about what bothers you There’s a good chance that a small action can lead to a more relaxed mindset.
【详解】考查固定句型。表示“为什么不”句型为why not do sth.；表示“试试做某事”为try to do sth.；表示“说出”即“谈论”为talk about；“困扰你的事情”即“使你困扰的事情”，使用what引导宾语从句，“困扰”bother，从句描述现在的一般情况，使用一般现在时，what在从句中作主语，谓语动词使用第三人称单数形式bothers，后接宾语“你”you；表示“很有可能”句型为There’s a good chance that...；从句主语“一个微小的举动”为a small action；表示“带来”为lead to，情态动词can后跟动词原形形式，从句宾语“更放松的心态”为a more relaxed mindset。故翻译为Why not try to talk about what bothers you There’s a good chance that a small action can lead to a more relaxed mindset.
75．At the graduation ceremony, Li Hua showed his heartfelt gratitude to the teachers who shared weal and woe with him.
【详解】考查介词短语、动词、时态和定语从句。“在毕业典礼上”作时间状语，用介词短语at the graduation ceremony表示，主语“李华”用Li Hua，谓语“表达”用动词show，讲述过去的事情用一般过去时态showed，宾语“由衷的感激”用名词短语heartfelt gratitude，“向……表达感激”为show one’s gratitude to，“和他一起同甘共苦的老师们”译为the teachers who shared weal and woe with him，其中关系代词who引导限制性定语从句修饰先行词the teachers，从句中动宾短语share weal and woe意为“同甘共苦”。综上，全句译为：At the graduation ceremony, Li Hua showed his heartfelt gratitude to the teachers who shared weal and woe with him.
76．
Dear Sir/Madam,
Hearing that you are calling on students to give opinions on choosing a student association, I am so interested in it and decide to write a letter to suggest selecting the Homeless Animals Care Club.
In my opinion, with your fund, the Homeless Animals Care Club can do some important things to help homeless animals, such as regular medical examinations, which can improve the rehabilitation of homeless animals and promote the all-round development of homeless animals. With the fund, the club can organize some public activities, so that homeless animals and animal-lovers can have some social activities together, which can help homeless animals better integrate into society, reduce their psychological pressure and let them feel the care of society.
I think it significant to set up the Homeless Animals Care Club. I hope you can take my suggestion seriously.
Yours,
Li Ming
