Hi, everyone, I am Su Yiming. Do you like celebrating your birthday I love it because on that day I will get many gifts, such as basketballs, skateboards, interesting books, and fancy clothes. I cherished one of the special ones.
Three days before my 18th birthday, I received the most precious birthday gift ever, winning an Olympic gold medal at the Snowboard Big Air during the Beijing 2022 Winter Olympics. When I was four years old, my parents taught me how to ski. As a hobby, I loved to play every day. As a professional athlete, it was a totally different thing. After four years of practice, I became tired of it. I said I would never want to hear the word “ski” again.
Unluckily, at the age of six, I was hit by someone while snowboarding and one of my thigh bones was broken. As a little kid then, I just felt painful and didn’t think about too much else. When I woke up in the hospital, I remembered the first thing my mom told me was, “Baby, we can’t give up snowboarding.” My parents didn’t mean to ask me to achieve great success. They just didn’t want me to get used to backing down and giving up easily when I met difficulties.
Indeed my parents know that I love snowboarding with my heart and soul, and it’s common for athletes to go through setbacks and injuries. Even if they may be anxious when I get hurt, they always respect and support my choice. Even today, parents are the first teachers to their children. My parents are the best ones when it comes to my passion and dedication to snowboarding.
4. Which birthday gift would be favored most by Su
A. A basketball. B. A skateboard. C. An interesting book. D. A gold medal.
5. When did Su get tired of skiing
A. At the age of 4． B. At the age of 8． C. At the age of 6． D. At the age of 18．
6. What do we know about Su’s injury
A. He thought of giving up snowboarding.
B. His parents cared the least about his health.
C. His parents encouraged him to face difficulty bravely.
D. He could never be an excellent snowboarder anymore.
7. Which of the following is the best title for the text
A. An Olympic Champion’s Story B. The First Teachers to Su Yiming.
C. Celebrating a Boy’s 18th Birthday D. A Painful Injury When Snowboarding
C
Labor Day is celebrated on May 1st every year. This year we Chinese have a holiday break from May 1st to May 5th. Some people are curious about when and why we started to celebrate Labor Day.
In the 19th century, overworked and exhausted laborers were fed up and demanded better treatment. In Canada, laborers marched to their Prime Minister’s doorstep and asked for their right to form unions. The march was victorious. They celebrated better working conditions with an annual parade. Peter J. McGuire, an American labor leader, was invited and thought to bring that spirit to America and what a success it was.
In New York City, protesters gathered to fight against poor labor conditions. The movement quickly spread across America. Workers gathered for picnics, concerts and speeches, supporting for 8-hour work days and a labor holiday. Oregon was the first state to officially acknowledge the holiday. But it wasn’t until 12,000 government forces were sent to stop a strike, and two railway workers were tragically killed that pressure increased gradually from the American workforce and Labor Day was put on the federal calendar. More than 80 countries worldwide celebrate Labor Day or International Workers’ Day on May 1st. But the first Monday of September makes sense to Americans, because it falls between Independence Day and Thanksgiving Day. This gives working families a much-needed break.
Fast-forward about a hundred years and the Labor Day holiday has become a kind of farewell to summer. People seem to forget the hard-won victory of Labor Day. In the USA, kids go back to school, football season starts as usual and fashion lovers hang up that little white dress. But let’s remember that Labor Day is a celebration of the labor movement, dedicated to the social and economic achievements of workers all over the world. It’s evolved into an appreciation of life and a well-deserved break from work.
8. Why did Canadian laborers march
A. To welcome Peter J. McGuire.
B. To apply for an annual parade.
C. To ask for their right to form unions.
D. To celebrate better working conditions.
9. What do we know about the history of American Labor Day
A. Oregon was the first state to recognize Labor Day.
B. New York workers went to the concerts to have fun.
C. American workers won the right to have Labor Day easily.
D. American government forces supported the laborers’ strike.
10. How do Americans celebrate Labor Day nowadays
A Students march in the school.
B. American families have a break.
C. Football players gather to have a match.
D Fashion lovers wear their white dresses.
11. What is the author’s attitude towards celebrating Labor Day
A. Open-minded. B. Indifferent. C. Passive. D. Grateful.
D
Tracking wildlife is a tough job for scientists. Kasim Rafiq was a wildlife biologist at Liverpool John Moores University. He was tracking a one-eared leopard (豹子) named Pavarotti.
These days, Kasim got up at daybreak, followed Pavarotti’s tracks and tried to find him. One morning, Kasim went out to search for Pavarotti again. His tracks took Kasim off road through woodland area. Before he knew it, the wheel of his Land Rover was stuck in a trap for warthog, an African wild pig. He wasted several hours getting out.
On the way back to his camp, Kasim came across some local tourists, who had better luck spotting Pavarotti. Kasim told them the reason why he was stuck in the trap for a long time. They laughed and explained that they had seen Pavarotti that morning. Kasim then was aware that tourist wildlife sightings might be an untapped source of information about wild animals.
He and his team worked with a safari hotel in Botswana to analyze 25,000 tourist photographs of wildlife. They used those photos as sightings of lions, leopards and wild dogs. They then compared those data to the data they made with traditional wildlife biology methods: camera traps, track surveys and “call-in stations”. It turned out that the data from tourist photos were just as good as those gleaned from traditional methods. The tourists were actually the lucky ones to see large animals, which are difficult to find.
“There are so many interesting things we still have to find out about large animals and so many conservation projects that need to be carried out that we don’t have the time or resources to do them all. However, tourist photos might help make sure that all the local animals are spotted,” Kasim put.
12. Why did Kasim get up early in the morning these days
A. To catch an African wild pig.
B. To work out for several hours.
C. To find a leopard named Pavarotti.
D. To practise driving in the woodland area.
13. What did Kasim realize after meeting some local tourists
A. He and his team might work in a safari hotel.
B. He would be stuck in a trap for warthog again.
C. He could catch a one-eared leopard named Pavarotti.
D. He would get information about wild animals through wild sightings.
14. What does the underlined word “gleaned” mean in paragraph 4
A. Collected. B. Measured.
C. Borrowed. D. Created.
15. What might be the possible result of using tourist photos
A. Large animals might be better kept track of.
B. Wildlife researchers are going to be out of jobs.
C. The researchers will not see Pavarotti in person.
D. Conservation projects might be carried out by tourists.

47. 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。
Carl and I were close friends when we were sixteen years old. We were in the same class. He was a top student in my class, but I was on the opposite side. He loved reading books, but I was not good at reading any interesting books. His family had a big house with a beautiful garden, but my family had a small one for 5people. Despite all these differences, we both liked playing baseball.
One Sunday afternoon, we had just finished playing baseball in Carl’s back yard, I was about to get on my bike to go home. “Wait a minute,” Carl said. He ran into his house and came back with a book for me to take home to read. I said nothing. I hated school because I hated reading. I kept the book for a couple of weeks. Then I returned it unread. I was worried that Carl would ask me some questions about the book. Luckily, Carl never asked me whether I liked it or not.
During the following two years, Carl lent me more books. Each time I returned them unread. I pretended to have read them all and thanked him for sharing these wonderful stories with me. I remembered the last one was Martin Eden by Jack London. Actually, I started to read the book carelessly. There were many words on every page that I didn’t understand. It was only a boring story about a poor boy who fought for chances to study at school. The main character, Martin Eden, had my own poor educational background, but managed to educate himself and became a published author. I returned it to him unfinished.
A few days after graduating from high school, Carl asked, “Benny, what college are you going to ” “I am not going to college because my father can’t afford the seventy-five dollars for tuition,” I lied.
注意：
1．续写词数应为150左右；
2．请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
I wanted to tell him the true reason but I kept in silence.

The following day, Carl handed me an envelope with $75inside and the book, Martin Eden.

I wanted to tell him the true reason but I kept in silence. My heart pounded, a mix of gratitude and embarrassment washing over me. I knew that Carl could see right through my lie, yet he didn’t push. Instead, he gave me a knowing look, one that said he understood more than I thought. That night, I tossed and turned in bed, the weight of my secret and Carl’s silent support heavy on my conscience. I realized that I couldn’t hide behind my pride any longer; I needed to face the truth and perhaps, accept help.
The following day, Carl handed me an envelope with $75 inside and the book, Martin Eden. “I know you can do it,” he said, his eyes filled with encouragement. I was overwhelmed with gratitude and guilt. That day, I made a promise to myself that I would read every book he gave me, work hard, and apply to college. Years later, when I graduated with honors, I knew it was Carl’s belief in me that had changed my life forever. I owed him more than just money; I owed him my gratitude and friendship for life.
