For American teenagers,having a part time job is an important part of growing up.They can learn some important skills and make some money by doing a part time job.American teenagers are allowed to do part time jobs when they are 14.On weekdays,they may go to work a few times a week after school.They usually work longer on weekends.In summer,American teenagers are excited if they find part time jobs at camps,swimming pools and amusement parks.These jobs can bring them too much fun.Some of the most stressful jobs include teaching,nursing,and police work.But these jobs can be useful for their future.When they grow up,the students with working experience are more likely to succeed than those without working experience.A favorite job for many teenagers is babysitting,and they can start before the age of 14.As long as they stay in the house and make sure the kids are okay,they can do their homework,watch TV,or talk on the phone with friends.

I was said to be the worst student in my class and my family thought I was hopeless.I had to repeat the sixth grade.At that time a new teacher,Miss Sadia,came to our school.
One day after class,she noticed that I was staying alone during the lunch break.She came to me and began to talk to me.It was just a normal conversation.After that day,she gave me much attention and it made me feel special.I started to go all out because she gave me the feeling that someone believed me,and my grades started to improve in her subject.
Months later,she moved into a house near my home.We would walk home together after school.Her constant support helped me,especially in my studies,as I knew she would check my grades both in her subject and the other subjects.I finally came second in my class.
Then,after the sixth grade,she started to drift apart but still kept a check on me.By the time I was in the seventh grade,she hardly spoke to me,but by then I had become the best in my class.When I left school,I was out of touch with her as she never answered the phone when I called her.
Then I graduated and went to a good university.One fine day,our paths crossed again.I met her at a wedding.I could not help asking her,“Why did you stop talking to me?”
“You are a clever boy.I wanted you to be a tree standing on your own roots,not depending on others.Now here you are and I feel proud of you.You are your inspiration and do not need to look for a shoulder,” she said.I could not say anything,but I smiled.I'll always thank her.
语篇解读 本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了成绩很差的作者在小学时遇到了一位名叫Miss Sadia的老师,在她的帮助和鼓励下,作者的成绩很快就上来。然而在那之后,Miss Sadia不再和他交谈。作者在毕业后的一次偶遇老师才知道原因,老师告诉他,自己就是让他独立,不要总是依赖别人。作者很感谢Miss Sadia老师。
24.What can we know about the author in his first sixth grade
A.He did very badly in his studies.
B.He found his teacher the worst.
C.He didn't talk with his parents.
D.He was hopeful about his future.
A [细节理解题。根据第一段中“I was said to be the worst student in my class and my family thought I was hopeless.I had to repeat the sixth grade.”可知,作者在学习上做的很糟糕,故选A项。]
25.What made the author decide to work hard
A.An unusual conversation.
B.His previous teacher's support.
C.His parents' encouragement.
D.Miss Sadia's special attention.
D [细节理解题。根据第二段中“After that day,she gave me much attention and it made me feel special.I started to work hard because she gave me the feeling that someone believed me ”可知,正是因为Miss Sadia的特别关注使作者决定努力学习,故选D项。]
26.What does the underlined phrase “drift apart” in Paragraph 4 most probably mean
A.Be more friendly. B.Get angry.
C.Move away. D.Become less close.
D [词义猜测题。根据前文“We would walk home together after school.Her constant support helped me”及后文“By the time I was in the seventh grade,she hardly spoke to me”可知,作者和老师的关系由六年级时的亲密变成了七年级时的不太亲密,故画线词要表示这种变化,D项(变得不太亲密)符合语境。易错归因:文中并未提及老师搬走的信息,且C项(搬走)和空前started to结合在一起时不符合逻辑,故C项错误。]
27.Why did Miss Sadia stop talking to the author
A.She just disliked talking to him anymore.
B.She wanted him to grow independent.
C.She was too busy with her own wedding.
D.She had no way to get in touch with him.
B [推理判断题。根据最后一段中“I wanted you to be a tree standing on your own roots,not depending on others.”(我想让你成为一棵树,凭借自己的深根挺立,而不是依靠别人。)可推断出,Miss Sadia之所以不和作者交谈,其目的是想让作者变得独立起来,不要总是依赖别人,B项正确。]

A large number of India's urban(城区的)poor kids receive little or no education.Even if they enter a formal school,their dropout rates are very high.Door Step School (DSS) aims to bridge the huge gap between these kids and education.
True to its name,Door Step School sets up a school right at the doorstep of kids who can't get formal education due to a variety of reasons.
The team at DSS follows a direct model—they set up a classroom in any area,a footpath,construction site,or underpass,where they foresee the greatest need.They look for proper locations,and after making sure that enough resources are in place,they accept students in the areA.DSS provides lessons of different levels.The organization even tries to provide classes in the local language,or whatever the students choose.
Another interesting project of DSS is a school on wheels.It uses a bus that has been changed into a classroom,which holds about 25 kids at a time.
Since it was started in 1988,Door Step School has spread from Mumbai to the neighbouring city of Pune in Maharashtra,covering a larger area and number of kids.Now DSS has a team of more than 1,000 volunteers and teachers who change more than 70,000 lives each year.
DSS doesn't end at kids.The organisation educates parents on the importance of sending their kids to school.Its efforts have brought education to thousands of students in the last two decades.Their belief in education for all has not only changed children's lives but also continued the fight against one of the biggest problems India faces.All children have the right to an education,and DSS is providing just that.

29.What can we learn about the lessons provided by “Door Step School”?
A.They are better than formal school lessons.
B.They include whatever a school can provide.
C.They suit children at different levels.
D.They are easy for kids to learn by themselves.

30.What is Paragraph 5 mainly about
A.The development of Door Step School.
B.The foundation of Door Step School.
C.The management of Door Step School.
D.The future of Door Step School.
A [段落大意题。根据第五段中内容可知,自从1988年开办以来,DSS学校已经从Mumbai扩展到邻近的Maharashtra的Pune市,覆盖了更大的地区和更多的孩子。现在,DSS有一个由1 000多名志愿者和教师组成的团队,他们每年改变7万多人的生活。由此可知,第五段主要介绍了DSS自1988年成立到目前的发展情况,故选A项。]
31.What is one of the biggest problems that India faces
A.There are no formal schools.
B.Many children receive no education.
C.Children refuse to attend schools.
D.The country is short of teachers.
B [推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Their belief in education for all has not only changed children's lives but also continued the fight against one of the biggest problems India faces.All children have the right to an education”可知,他们对全民教育的信念不仅改变了孩子们的生活,而且继续与印度面临的最大问题之一作斗争。所有儿童都有受教育的权利。由此可以推断出,印度面临的最大问题就是很多孩子没有接受教育的权利,故选B项。]

When comparing U.S.and Chinese schools,despite(尽管)many differences,one finds a number of unexpected similarities.
Students in both countries,in some ways,have much in common.This includes their experiences with popular culture like technology and social media,care for the environment,and the fact that all were terribly influenced by COVID 19.
Students in both countries belong to what might be described as a“TikTok culture,”although this Chinese app is likely more popular in the U.S.than in China itself.The Chinese term “kuaicanshi yule”,which means fast food type entertainment,is the better expression,one that conveys“snackable content”for often meme oriented,fast moving fashion that compete for short attention spans.Whatever the app or device,students have been much influenced by technology,positively and negatively.In fact,Chinese students do face more controls from their schools about their use of social media,although many are good at finding ways to avoid them.
Furthermore,many students in both countries are attracted to similar styles,in both fashion and food,in music and film,with Chinese and American students often being similarly up to date on the latest hits,including television series.
Finally,what both have most in common is the strong wish to live a good life,be successful and secure.The U.S.and China approach these wishes in different ways educationally,but both could learn from each other.This is especially true given the fact that we all live in an increasingly globalized world,and must learn to work together to solve not only global problems like climate change and disease outbreaks,but unfortunate frictions between the U.S.and ChinA.Indeed,with the last point in mind,a significant weakness in the educational systems of both countries is that neither really understands the other.This is not a new problem,but solving it needs serious attention.
语篇解读 本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了中美学校学生的相似之处。
32.What can we learn about the students in the U.S.and China from Paragraph 2
A.They show no interest in traditional culture.
B.They have chances to experience social mediA.
C.They are satisfied with their living environment.
D.They were hardly influenced by COVID 19.
B [细节理解题。根据第二段中“Students in both countries,in some ways,have much in common.This includes their experiences with popular culture like technology and social media”可知,在某些方面,这两个国家的学生有很多共同之处。这包括他们在科技和社交媒体等流行文化方面的经历。由此可知,中美学生都有机会体验社交媒体,故选B项。]
33.What do Chinese students face about using social media in school
A.Rules to control.
B.Supports from parents.
C.Agreement from schools.
D.Risk to leave.
A [细节理解题。根据第三段中“In fact,Chinese students do face more controls from their schools about their use of social media,although many are good at finding ways to avoid them.”可知,学生在校园使用社交工具遭受校方的约束,中国比美国要更为严厉。故选A项。]
34.What do U.S.and Chinese students have in common
A.Schools stop them from using social mediA.
B.They have little interest in television series.
C.They achieve their wishes educationally similarly.
D.They can't fully understand each other educationally.
D [细节理解题。根据最后一段中“Indeed,with the last point in mind,a significant weakness in the educational systems of both countries is that neither really understands the other.”可知,两国教育系统的一个显著弱点是双方都不真正了解对方。由此可知,中美学生共同之处是他们不能在教育上充分了解对方,故选D项。]
35.Which of the following can be the best title
A.U.S.and Chinese Schools
B.U.S.and Chinese Students
C.Similarities between U.S.and Chinese Students
D.Differences between U.S.and Chinese Schools
C [标题归纳题。本文结构为总分关系,第一段为主题段,点明中美学校有很多相似之处,后面几段从不同方面分说其具体体现。故C项(美国和中国学生的相似之处)最适合作文章标题。]

39.G [根据前文“Amazing students,however,aren't defeated by negative comments.”及后文“They use negative comments to improve their academic performance.”可知,优秀的学生不会被负面的评论打败,他们通过老师的反馈不断提升自己。故G项(有时,他们甚至会向老师请教提升自己的方法。)起到承上启下的作用。]
40.B [根据空后句“Amazing students are curious about the world around them.”可知,优秀的学生对他们周围的世界非常好奇。故B项(保持好奇心,不断学习。)符合语境。B项中curious为复现词。]

语篇解读 本文是一篇议论文。文章主要介绍了谈论校园欺凌的危害,同时针对不同年龄段的孩子提出了预防校园欺凌的建议。
56.解析: going 考查非谓语动词。根据空前介词of可知,本空应用动词 ing形式。be frightened of doing sth.意为“害怕做某事”。
57.解析: that/which 考查定语从句。本空引导定语从句,修饰名词problem,本空在从句中作主语、指物,故应用关系代词which或that。
58.解析: worried 考查词性转换。本空在句中作宾语补足语,表示人的感受,故应用 ed结尾的形容词作宾补,故本空应用形容词worried。
59.解析: adults 考查名词的单复数。根据空前复数名词parents,teachers和形容词other可知,本空应用名词复数形式。

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。
Once,when I was a teenager,my father and I were standing in line to buy tickets for the circus(马戏团).Finally,there was only one family between us and the ticket counter.
This family made a big impression on me.There were eight children,all probably under the age of twelve.You could tell they didn't have a lot of money.Their clothes were not expensive,but they were clean.The children were well behaved,all of them standing in line,two by two behind their parents,holding hands.They were excitedly talking about the clowns,elephants,and other acts they would see that night with their brothers or sisters in a low voice.
One could sense they had never been to the circus before.It promised to be highlight(最激动人心的部分)of their young lives.The father and mother were at the head of the pack,standing proud as could be.The mother was holding her husband's hand,looking up at him as if to say,“You are my knight(骑士)in shining armor(盔甲).” He was smiling and responding in pride,looking back at her as if to say,“You got that right.”
The ticket lady asked the father how many tickets he wanted.He proudly responded,“Please let me buy eight children's tickets and two adult tickets so I can take my family to the circus.” The ticket lady gave the price.The man's wife let go of his hand,her head dropped,and his lips began to shake.The father leaned a little closer and asked,“How much did you say?” The ticket lady again gave the price.The man didn't have enough money.
How was he supposed to turn and tell his eight children that he didn't have enough money to take them to the circus
Actually we were not wealthy in any sense.So I understand how the kids would feel.I felt sorry for them.
注意:1.续写词数应为150左右;
2.请按如下格式作答。
Paragraph 1:
Seeing what was going on,my dad put his hand in his pocket,pulled out a $20 bill and dropped it on the ground.

[参考范文]
Paragraph 1:
Seeing what was going on,my dad put his hand in his pocket,pulled out a $20 bill and dropped it on the ground.Then he picked it up and tapped the man on the shoulder and said,“Excuse me,sir.This fell out of your pocket.” The man turned around and saw the money.He knew what was going on.He looked straight into my dad's eyes,took my dad's hand in both of his,squeezed tightly onto the $20 bill,and with his lips shaking and a tear running down his cheek,he replied,“Thank you,thank you,sir.This really means a lot to me and my family.”
Paragraph 2:
That day my father and I went back to our car and drove home without any tickets.We didn't go to the circus that night.When I asked Dad why he did so,Dad said,“My child,it was a desperate,heartbreaking and embarrassing situation for a father.Surely he wasn't begging for a handout,but he reminded me of my father,when I was young.” He paused for a while,as if wandering in his memory.“We should appreciate what we have obtained from life and seize every opportunity to help others.We didn't go to the circus tonight,but we didn't go without.”
