一.应用文
One possible version:
A man of the soil
It’s my great honour today to deliver a speech on scientific spirit to you. From my point of view, devotion and
determination contribute the most to the achievement of a scientist.
Yuan Longping, a man of the soil, is the best example. As he once said, “my lifelong pursuit is to keep all the
people away from hunger.” To realize this dream, he devoted all his life to the soil to boost yields in the field.
Although no one thought it could be done, he never lost heart to tackle this challenge. Having overcome varieties of
difficulties, he finally found the answer in hybrid rice.
Thanks to his scientific spirit, today not just China but many other countries have basically solved the hunger
problem.
二、读后续写
One possible version:
确定文章主旨:本文节选自 reader.,主要讲述一个小男孩和自己的哥哥姐姐去森林里摘果子时
走丢了,小男孩的父母号召整个村里人帮助寻找小男孩的故事。主旨应该是村民团结一致找到小男孩。
写作难点:本篇续写在写作时,会误把小男孩作为本文主人公,和前几年高考题一样,把主题确定为“自
救”;然而,本篇文章并不是这个主旨;续写难点就是在情节上,可以运用进不同的细节描写。另外,注意 2
个提示句的时间词。
Paragraph 1: The night passed away, and the morning dawned, and yet no news came. Outside the window was
1
{#{QQABDQgAggiAAAJAARhCAw1gCAMQkBCAAIoGxEAAIAIAAAFABCA=}#}
howling the wind as well as the violent rain. The worried parents whole night couldn’t sleep, fearing that their little
boy might be threatened by the bears. After a while, the parties came back in vain, letting out a sound, “We need
to search the little wanderer in another side of the woods .” The instant they made a new plan, the father together with
groups of people put on raincoat, taking along with lances to continue the rescue. Praying to the god ,the mother
was overwhelmed with hope that her little boy could return safe and sound. As darkness thickened, the mother walked
back and forth outside of the house, waiting for the good news anxiously. However, the father came back home,
shaking his head with exhausted and disappointed face.
Paragraph 2: About seven in the morning, villagers made arrangements for a final search. As the sun rose, the
clouds were scattered and the whole landscape glittered in the rays of the bright morning. Exhausted as villagers they
were, everyone didn’t lose hope, determined to find the boy by every means. The loud shouts from all parties echoed
in every corner of the woods. “Come here! I find something!” one of the villagers screamed excitedly. “There were
berries scattering over the ground !” Hearing the loud voice, out rushed a little boy, bursting into tears as soon as he
caught sight of the familiar faces. Scarcely had the father arrived at the spot when he held the little boy into the arms
tightly. It wasn’t long before the good news spread far and wide among the village, relief and joys hanging over this
lovely village.
答案详解:
A
【答案】C、B、D
【解析】【文章大意】本文是一篇应用文。主要介绍的是 2023年 LEAF农场开放日的庆祝活动情况。
21. 根据首段中的 How many people have passed your farm, seen your pigs and wondered what happens behind the
farm gate (有多少人经过你的农场,看过你的猪,想知道农场大门后面发生了什么?)可知,该文讲述的“your
farm”指的是农民的农场,并结合第二段中的 Whether you host an event for 20 people or 200, the day is really
rewarding, a great way to involve your local community and is hugely positive PR for British farming(. 无论你是举办
20人还是 200人的活动,这一天都是非常值得的,这是一个让当地社区参与进来的好方法,对英国农业来说
是一个非常积极的公关。)可知,农民组织活动会让更多的当地社区参与进来,这对英国的农业发展有积极的
意义。由此推知,农民想参加该活动。故选 C。
22.根据第二段中的 A simple self-guided farm walk is all you need to offer, and LEAF has lots of free resources and
top tips available to help with your planning(一个简单的自助农场步行是你所需要提供的,LEAF有很多免费的
资源和顶级提示,可以帮助你制定计划)可知,LEAF会提供一些规划农场活动的建议。故选 B。
23.根据最后一段中的 Following registration, you will receive a handbook with guidance on how to organize a safe
and engaging event.(注册后,您将收到一本手册,指导如何组织一个安全和吸引人的活动。)可知,要想拿到
手册,需要登记注册。故选 D。
B
【答案】B 、A、D、C
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要介绍了 Ed Jackson,一个勇于冒险的人,他在冒险中面临的挑战对他的
身体和精神恢复都产生了巨大的影响,并且创办了慈善组织M2M,帮助有类似经历的人。
24.主旨大意题。根据第一段中“Ed Jackson’s team were trying to climb to the top of a Himalayan Mountain.
However, weeks after they set off, they were stranded (滞留 ) there overnight without water, food or tents at a
temperature of about -30℃. (Ed Jackson的团队正试图爬上喜马拉雅山的山顶。然而,在出发几周后,他们被困
2
{#{QQABDQgAggiAAAJAARhCAw1gCAMQkBCAAIoGxEAAIAIAAAFABCA=}#}
在那里过夜,没有水,没有食物,也没有帐篷,气温约为零下 30℃。) ”和第二段中“Actually, that night on the
mountain top was not the first time that Jackson had been close to death. (实际上,在山顶的那个晚上并不是 Jackson
第一次与死神擦肩而过。)”可知,前两段主要讲述 Jackson经历的磨难,即 Jackson对生活中的苦难并不陌生。
故选 B。
25.词义猜测题。画线词前所在的下一句“To mark the first anniversary of his accident, Jackson set himself the goal
of climbing Mount Snowdon, the highest mountain in Wales, even though he was still using two crutches (拐杖) then.
(为了纪念他的事故一周年,Jackson给自己定下了攀登威尔士最高的山峰斯诺登山的目标,尽管当时他还拄着
两根拐杖。)可知,Jackson不需再使用轮椅了,故划线词所在句意思是“幸运的是,Jackson在事故发生六个月
后设法丢弃了他的轮椅。”所以划线词 discard意为“抛弃”,与动词短语 give up同义,故选 A。
26.细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中“The challenges that Jackson faced in the mountains have had a great impact on
his recovery both physically and mentally. Jackson realized that others might benefit, too. So he started the charity
Millimeters to Mountains (M2M) with his wife Lois and his friend Oily Barkley. It takes beneficiaries (受益人) who
have suffered physical or psychological injuries in challenges around the world, allowing them to access the healing
power of nature.”(Jackson在山上面临的挑战对他的身体和精神的恢复都产生了很大的影响。Jackson意识到其
他人也可能从中受益。因此,他与妻子 Lois和朋友 Oily Barkley一起创办了慈善机构M2M。它让那些在世界
各地的挑战中遭受身体或心理伤害的人成为受益者,让他们获得自然的治愈力量。)”可知,Jackson创办M2M
是为了帮助有类似经历的人。故选 D。
27.推理判断题。根据第一段中“Ed Jackson’s team were trying to climb to the top of a Himalayan Mountain. (Ed
Jackson的团队正试图爬上喜马拉雅山的山顶)”,第三段中的“To mark the first anniversary of his accident, Jackson
set himself the goal of climbing Mount Snowdon, the highest mountain in Wales, even though he was still using two
crutches (拐杖) then. (为了纪念他的事故一周年,Jackson给自己定下了攀登威尔士最高的山峰斯诺登山的目标,
尽管当时他还拄着两根拐杖。)以及最后一段中“Jackson says, “I once lost hope in life because of my bad condition,
thinking there was nothing I could do. But hopefully what I’m doing, what we’re doing with the charity and what our
beneficiaries are proving can give anyone the hope that they can turn their life around, no matter how discouraging it
might seem at that moment.”(杰克逊说:“我曾经因为身体状况不好而对生活失去希望,觉得自己无能为力。但
希望我所做的,我们与慈善机构所做的,以及我们的受益者所证明的,可以给任何人带来希望,让他们能够改
变自己的生活,不管那一刻看起来多么令人沮丧。”)”可知,Ed Jackson是一个勇于冒险且鼓舞人心的人。故选
C。
C
【答案】B、A、D、C
【解析】【文章大意】本文主要介绍了一种专门用来对付网上欺凌的字体。
28.根据第三段中的 As users try to write hurtful English words, the font will automatically replace them.(当用户试
图写伤人的英语单词时,该字体会自动替换它们。)以及 The company says it is the first example where a blur has
been used as a symbol in a font package(. 该公司表示,这是第一个在字体包中使用模糊符号的例子。)可知,Polite
Type字体的特别之处是它既包含单词也包含符号。故选 B。
29.根据第四段中的 The font’s library of words was chosen to include language from different origins, religions, and
world views, and will make adjustments as more people and businesses use it. In the future, TietoEVRY suggests that
3
{#{QQABDQgAggiAAAJAARhCAw1gCAMQkBCAAIoGxEAAIAIAAAFABCA=}#}
machine learning could be used to teach the font to understand how language is used.(该字体的词汇库包括了来自
不同起源、宗教和世界观的语言,并将随着更多的人和企业使用它而做出调整。TietoEVRY认为,在未来,
将来可以用机器学习来教字体理解语言的使用方式。)可知,在未来,Polite Type这种字体会不断更新。故选
A。
30.根据最后一段中的We want bullies to rethink the words they use and the actual meaning behind them,(我们希望
欺凌者重新思考他们使用的词语和背后的实际含义)以及 I hope that our cause acts as a wake-up call for all
audiences to consider how bullying could be handled.(我希望我们的事业为所有受众敲响警钟,让他们考虑如何
应对欺凌。)可知,Kia Haring认为 Polite Type字体的创建是具有启发意义的。故选 D。
31.阅读全文尤其第二段中的 TietoEVRY developed the Polite Type font as a new tool to deal with online bullying
among kids, pointing out harmful language and causing users to pick kinder words.(TietoEVRY开发了这款 Polite
Type字体,作为一种新的工具来应对孩子们的网络欺凌,指出有害的语言,并促使用户选择更友好的词语。)
可知,本文主要介绍了一款应对网络欺凌的字体——Polite Type。C选项(一种旨在对抗网络欺凌的字体)为
本文的最佳标题。故选 C。
七选五 【答案】D、F、G、B、C
【分析】本文是说明文。文章主要介绍了四种有效的肢体语言交流的方式。
32.上文“Paying closer attention to the messages you send through body language can help you succeed.( 密切关注
你通过肢体语言发送的信息可以帮助你成功。)”说明了了解肢体语言的益处,下文内容介绍了一些肢体语言交
流方式,空格处承上启下,D项中的“some ideas for using gestures to communicate”引起下文,因此推断 D项“下
面是一些使用手势来交流的想法。”符合语境,故选 D项。
33.上文“People will associate bad posture with weak confidence or boredom.( 人们会把糟糕的姿势与自信心低或
无聊联系起来。)”说明不好的姿势传递的不好的信息,F项中的“you don't sit up straight”是不好的姿势,“you’re
lazy and unmotivated”是不好的信息,因此推断 F项“如果你不坐直,他们甚至可能会认为你懒惰,没有动力。”
符合语境,进一步举例说明不好的姿势传递不好的信息,故选 F项。
34.根据本段标题“Mirror another person(. 模仿另一个人)”和上文“Mirroring is when one partner copies the posture
of the other partner.( 模仿是指一个同伴复制另一个同伴的姿势。)”可知,此处建议模仿另一个的姿势,G项中
的“copying the actions of the other person”与之一致,讲的是模仿别人,因此推断 G项“通过模仿别人的行为,
你会让他/她感到与你有联系。”符合语境,故选 G项。
35.下文“If you want to ensure you’re not misunderstood, repeat helpful gestures when you speak the idea aloud.( 如
果你想确保自己没有被误解,当你大声说出这个想法时,要重复一些有用的手势)”说明利用姿势让自己不被误
解,也就是能够更好的让别人理解自己,B项中的“better get your message across”一致,因此推断 B项“这将帮
助你更好地传达你的信息。”,符合语境,this指代上文“Have more than one gesture.(用许多姿势)”。故选 B项。
36.空格处是段落小标题。根据下文“Watch for wandering eyes and constant sniffing.( 注意那些恍惚的目光和不
断的抽鼻子)”和“Improving your posture and working to reduce nervous tics (抽搐)can be difficult and will take
time, but you'll quickly improve your overall non-verbal communication.( 改善你的姿势和努力减少紧张的抽搐可
能是困难的,而且需要时间,但你会很快改善你的整体非语言交流。)”可知,本段建议避免紧张或没有安全感
的手势。故选 C项。

W: Nothing like that. I just read the children’s books and act out some of the stories for them. It’s very fun and it
doesn’t take long, maybe one or two hours.
M: How often do you do that
W: I do it on Monday, Wednesday and Friday every week. You should come help me with it one time.
M: That sounds like fun. Can I pick the stories I want to read I hate to try and act out a story I never read.
W: You can read any book as long as it’s on the library’s list.

M: I was reading about superfoods today. They are fruits, vegetables and other foods that are supposed to be extra
healthy.
W: That’s interesting. Which foods are they I suppose rice is high on the list. We certainly eat a lot of that here in
China.
M: No, it isn’t. Nor are noodles. But yogurt, fish and tomatoes are there.
W: Oh well, I suppose we eat plenty of them. Why are these foods so healthy
M: It’s said that they can reduce the risks of high blood pressure, heart disease and certain cancers.
W: Maybe I will start including them in our meals. Are there any foods on the list that we don’t have yet
M: Nuts and greens are something we already eat plenty of. And although our type of rice—the white kind—isn’t on
the list, brown rice is.
W: Then I think we will switch to that to keep the family healthy. Superfoods sound like a very tasty way to keep fit.

M: I can’t believe this. I have been on the phone with my bank all day and they still haven’t fixed my problem.
W: Is it a credit card problem
M: Yes. My credit card information was stolen. When I got my bill in the mail, I saw there were many unfamiliar
purchases on it.
W: That’s terrible. Did they take a lot of money
M: Yes, and I am very upset because the bank is not helping me quickly. I have talked to many different managers
already.
W: Doesn’t the bank’s owner need to make the decision to give you your money back
M: No. I just have to prove that these purchases were not made by me.
W: I hope you can fix this problem soon. Something similar happened to my husband’s mother recently. She was
tricked into giving away some important information over the phone.
M: I think the person who stole my information got it from the Internet. I bought a collection of movies recently. I
won’t be doing that again unless the website is sure to be safe. It’s honestly my fault for being careless.
W: You can never be too careful. Well, your problem is inspiring me to look into protecting my account better. I think
I can pay my bank more to help me.

W: Listen up, you two. We need to leave this house before the sun rises tomorrow. Your father will be home soon
from work and once he gets home, we will be packing our bags. We need you guys to do the same thing tonight. I

want everything you’re going to bring put out in the living room before you go to bed. Before you pack everything
though, you need to put aside the clothes for tomorrow. I don’t want to wait for you to search for other clothes or to
unpack your bag to get something. Our flight is at 7:00 am, and it will take about a half hour to get to the airport from
here. We’ll probably need another hour to get through security. Also, I know I said that we would go out for our meal
tonight, but there is just too much to do. I asked your father to pick up some Chinese food for dinner instead. I can’t be
bothered to cook something since I just cleaned everything. If you want a specific dish at the restaurant, you will need
to call your father. Otherwise, he will just pick up something that we can all share. Are you clear on everything I said
