A
Family vacations can supply lifelong memories, so it’s important to travel to the perfect place. Here are four popular destinations (目的地) in the US that will satisfy your family.
Orlando
Orlando hosts a handful of theme parks that are sure to excite youths, including Universal Orlando Resort, where you'll find The Wizarding World of Harry Potter, and Discovery Cove, a resort (旅游胜地) where you can swim with dolphins around the park’s coral reef.
Anaheim-Disneyland
Home to Disneyland Resort since 1955, Anaheim, California, has enough magical attractions to keep families entertained. After catching up with Mickey and friends, visit Anaheim’s Adventure City amusement park. And if you’re in town during baseball season, you can catch a game at Angel Stadium. Note that Disneyland is busy year-round, but if you visit on a weekday, you’ll likely encounter fewer people.
Wisconsin Dells
Known as “The Water Park Capital of the World,” Wisconsin Dells makes for a great family vacation spot with plenty of things to do. Take your pick of splash-filled venues from Noah’s Ark Waterpark to Kalahari Resorts. When you need a break on dry land, head to a magic show at Rick Wilcox Magic Theater or admire animals like giraffes and tigers at Timbavati Wildlife Park. Because of this destination’s popularity, you’d better avoid the weekends.
Grand Canyon National Park
With so much to see and do here, there’s no chance anyone in your family will be bored in this park. Enjoy one of the park’s many light hikes, admire the view from the Grand Canyon Skywalk, raft the Colorado River or go for a ride on the Grand Canyon Railway. The Grand Canyon is pretty budget-friendly considering its low ticket prices, but know that nearby hotels book up quickly in summer.
21. What can visitors do in Orlando
A. Swim with dolphins. B. Admire tigers.
C. Watch baseball games. D. Meet Harry Potter.
22. What do Anaheim-Disneyland and Wisconsin Dells have in common
A. Their ticket prices are low. B. There are magic shows.
C. They’re crowded on weekends. D. They’re home to some theme parks.
23. What can you learn about Grand Canyon National Park
A. Its price is low. B. It has a Wildlife Park.
C. You can watch games here. D. You will be bored in this park.

In recent years, the concept of “slow travel” has appeared as a reaction to the fast-paced tourism that dominates (主宰) the industry. Slow travel encourages travelers to engage deeply with local cultures, stay longer in destinations, and form meaningful connections with local communities.
One of the key principles (原则) of slow travel is to reduce environmental impact (影响). By choosing to stay in locally-owned accommodations (住宿), eating at family-run restaurants, and using public transportation or bicycles, travelers can greatly decrease their carbon footprint. For instance, a study found that tourists who engage in slow travel produce up to 70% less greenhouse gas emissions (排放) compared to those on traditional package tours.
Slow travel also allows for a deeper cultural understanding. Instead of rushing through tourist attractions, slow travelers take the time to participate in local traditions, learn about historical importance, and interact with locals. This not only enriches the travel experience but also provides economic benefits to local communities. In some rural areas, “slow travel” has helped preserve (保存) endangered crafts(工艺) and save dying traditions.
However, slow travel is not without challenges. It requires more planning and flexibility (灵活). As travelers need to research local customs, transportation options, and authentic(真实的) experiences. Additionally, slow travel may not be feasible for everyone due to time or budget (预算) limit. For busy professionals or families with limited vacation days, spending weeks in a single destination may seem unrealistic.
Despite these challenges, the slow travel movement continues to grow. Travelers are becoming more aware of their environmental and cultural impact, and many are seeking more authentic and sustainable (可持续的) ways to explore the world. As a result, travel companies are starting to offer more slow-travel options, such as longer home-stays and cultural experience programs.
24. Which is the benefit of slow travel
A. It can save money on traveling.
B. It can be more environmentally friendly.
C. It can increase the income of travel companies.
D. It can allow travelers to visit more places hurriedly.
25. What can we learn about slow travel from the third paragraph
A. It has little impact on local economies.
B. It focuses on interactions with travelers.
C. It discourages travelers from learning about history.
D. It may contribute to the preservation of traditional crafts.
26. What does the underlined word “feasible” mean in the fourth paragraph
A. Attractive. B. Comfortable. C. Classical. D. Practical.
27. What can be inferred about the future of slow travel
A. It will cost less as time passes.
B. It will only be affordable for rich travelers.
C. It may become more popular in the future.
D. It will take the place of traditional tourism entirely.
C
A recent fireworks show, held in the Himalayas by a well-known outdoor brand (品牌) working with a famous artist, has drawn widespread attention and heated discussions. The event, wanting to put art and nature together, has raised concerns about its possible influence on the local ecosystem.
The brand said that the event was designed to celebrate the beauty of nature through art. However, many people have expressed worries about the environmental results of setting off fireworks in such an ecologically sensitive region.
Environmental experts point out that the Himalayas are home to unique wildlife and plants that could be disturbed by the loud noises and bright lights of fireworks. Moreover the remains of fireworks might pollute the soil and water sources, which are extremely important for the local environment.
Although the brand stated that they had taken measures to reduce the environmental impact, such as using biodegradable (可生物降解的) materials and cleaning up after the event, the public remains unsure. Some people believe that no fireworks show should be held in such a fragile natural habitat.
Local authorities (管理部门) have also begun to look into the event. They emphasized the importance of balancing artistic activities with environmental protection, especially in areas as fragile as the Himalayas.
This event has caused a broader discussion about the responsibility of artists and brands to protect nature when expressing art. It reminds us that while art is valuable, it should not come at the cost of harming the environment.
Up to now, the brand has not yet given a detailed follow-up plan about the show. All eyes are on the brand, and the public is eagerly waiting to see how the brand will reply to these concerns.
28. What is the purpose of the show
A. To attract more tourists.
B. To draw attention to the brand.
C. To test new firework materials.
D. To express the beauty of nature with art.
29. Which might be a direct result of the show
A. Attracting more tourists. B. Polluting local resources.
C. Killing wildlife and plants. D. Improving the brand’s image.
30. Which is the key focus of the local authorities on this event
A. Supporting more artistic events.
B. Stopping all fireworks in the area.
C. Making rules on artistic activities.
D. Keeping nature and art hand in hand.
31. What might be expected of the brand by the public
A. To say sorry to the public. B. To help fix the environment.
C. To pay for the nature damage. D. To improve fireworks’ quality.
D
New era (时代) requires a new vocabulary. Will we still talk about the “mobile” phone when all phones are mobile, or when they are implanted within us
Technology is everywhere nowadays, especially at work. Some people are really good at using all the cool new tools that keep popping up. They have something called a TQ, or technology quotient. Think of it like a superpower for understanding the latest tech stuff that our great-grandparents would have found really impossible. Having a high TQ means you’re good at using all the cool new things that not everyone knows about yet.
The examples are common and becoming more and more frequent. For the parents it might be a home-school video class. For the brand manager it might be search engine improving, which helps the brand’s content rank higher in search results. And for the doctor, it might be the role of artificial intelligence in supporting the analysis (分析) of a CT scan. TQ tries to quantify our ability to make wise use of present technologies and to quickly adapt, embrace (拥抱) and make use of future creations. This adoption is of great importance from a variety of perspectives, from social to business. One trip into the world of ChatGPT and we can see how the way AI and search interact and operate is changing for just about everyone.
Any Mom or Dad can understand the value of IQ and EQ in predicting the potential for a child’s success. But what about technology The ability for the child and the teacher to understand, embrace and assimilate technology will be a key aspect of their lives as we speed into the future. We are increasingly defined by technology and our active participation in everything from smart phones to Facebook. It might just be time for the basic human needs of food, water and shelter to include technology too. And when that happens, it just might be a good idea to measure it.
While this shift brings challenges, it’s unstoppable. As TQ rises, it will combine with IQ and EQ, reshaping how we live, work, and learn — turning adaptability with tech into a measurable advantage.
32. What is TQ according to the text
A. Speed of learning new languages. B. Skill of repairing high-tech products.
C. Talent to follow modern changes. D. Ability to use new technologies.
33. Which of the following people has a high TQ
A. A grandparent who finds new tech devices challenging.
B. A manager who often uses modern search engines.
C. A doctor who analyzes CT scans with AI’s help.
D. A mom who watches videos of her child’s school life.
34. What does the underlined word “assimilate” in the fourth paragraph mean
A. Depend on. B. Take in. C. Lie in. D. Turn down.
35. What might be the best title for the passage
A. Why Are IQ and EQ Important for TQ
B. Where to Start Adapting to TQ Changes
C. How Has TQ Changed in the Modern Era
D. What Makes TQ the New Intelligence

Peter woke up early in the morning. He went downstairs in a hurry and started to have his breakfast as quickly as possible.
“Why are you in such a hurry, early bird ” Mum asked him. “We will have an English spelling test today, Mum,” Peter said. “Mr. White promised to offer prizes to those who get full marks. I’ve been studying the word list since last week. Although the words are difficult, I am well prepared for the test.”
Peter reviewed the spelling of each word once more carefully when Dad drove him to school. At last, it was time for the students to have the test. “Responsibility,” Mr. White started. Peter wrote it on his test paper quickly and confidently. “The second word: contribution,” Mr. White said. “So easy,” Peter thought. He quickly wrote the word down. Thirty words later, the test papers were collected by Mr. White.
After marking the test papers, Mr. White said, “Three of you won a prize today for excellent test scores. Peter, David and Mary scored 100 percent in the spelling test!” Mr. White praised them. Meanwhile, he gave the three students each a dictionary. Peter’s was an English-Chinese dictionary — the one he liked best. Peter was so excited that he held it high when his classmates cheered. “This is my happiest moment,” Peter thought.
After Mr. White gave the test paper back, Peter had a look at the words, feeling proud of his spelling. All of a sudden, the word “contribusion” confused him. It didn’t seem right. Peter began to compare them after taking out the word list. He had spelled it wrong.
“What should I do ” Peter said to himself. “I expect my classmates to think I’m a master of spelling. If I tell Mr. White one of my spelling words is wrong, I’ll have to give my prize back.”
Staring at the red sign “100%” which was written on his test paper, Peter was lost in thought. After a while, he remembered a lesson Mum used to teach him — we ought to be an honest person.
注意：
1. 续写词数应为150个左右；

Family vacations can supply lifelong memories, so it’s important to travel to the perfect place. Here are four popular destinations (目的地) in the US that will satisfy your family.
Orlando
Orlando hosts a handful of theme parks that are sure to excite youths, including Universal Orlando Resort, where you'll find The Wizarding World of Harry Potter, and Discovery Cove, a resort (旅游胜地) where you can swim with dolphins around the park’s coral reef.
Anaheim-Disneyland
Home to Disneyland Resort since 1955, Anaheim, California, has enough magical attractions to keep families entertained. After catching up with Mickey and friends, visit Anaheim’s Adventure City amusement park. And if you’re in town during baseball season, you can catch a game at Angel Stadium. Note that Disneyland is busy year-round, but if you visit on a weekday, you’ll likely encounter fewer people.
Wisconsin Dells
Known as “The Water Park Capital of the World,” Wisconsin Dells makes for a great family vacation spot with plenty of things to do. Take your pick of splash-filled venues from Noah’s Ark Waterpark to Kalahari Resorts. When you need a break on dry land, head to a magic show at Rick Wilcox Magic Theater or admire animals like giraffes and tigers at Timbavati Wildlife Park. Because of this destination’s popularity, you’d better avoid the weekends.
Grand Canyon National Park
With so much to see and do here, there’s no chance anyone in your family will be bored in this park. Enjoy one of the park’s many light hikes, admire the view from the Grand Canyon Skywalk, raft the Colorado River or go for a ride on the Grand Canyon Railway. The Grand Canyon is pretty budget-friendly considering its low ticket prices, but know that nearby hotels book up quickly in summer.

In recent years, the concept of “slow travel” has appeared as a reaction to the fast-paced tourism that dominates (主宰) the industry. Slow travel encourages travelers to engage deeply with local cultures, stay longer in destinations, and form meaningful connections with local communities.
One of the key principles (原则) of slow travel is to reduce environmental impact (影响). By choosing to stay in locally-owned accommodations (住宿), eating at family-run restaurants, and using public transportation or bicycles, travelers can greatly decrease their carbon footprint. For instance, a study found that tourists who engage in slow travel produce up to 70% less greenhouse gas emissions (排放) compared to those on traditional package tours.
Slow travel also allows for a deeper cultural understanding. Instead of rushing through tourist attractions, slow travelers take the time to participate in local traditions, learn about historical importance, and interact with locals. This not only enriches the travel experience but also provides economic benefits to local communities. In some rural areas, “slow travel” has helped preserve (保存) endangered crafts(工艺) and save dying traditions.
However, slow travel is not without challenges. It requires more planning and flexibility (灵活). As travelers need to research local customs, transportation options, and authentic(真实的) experiences. Additionally, slow travel may not be feasible for everyone due to time or budget (预算) limit. For busy professionals or families with limited vacation days, spending weeks in a single destination may seem unrealistic.
Despite these challenges, the slow travel movement continues to grow. Travelers are becoming more aware of their environmental and cultural impact, and many are seeking more authentic and sustainable (可持续的) ways to explore the world. As a result, travel companies are starting to offer more slow-travel options, such as longer home-stays and cultural experience programs.
24. Which is the benefit of slow travel
A. It can save money on traveling.
B. It can be more environmentally friendly.
C. It can increase the income of travel companies.
D. It can allow travelers to visit more places hurriedly.
25. What can we learn about slow travel from the third paragraph
A. It has little impact on local economies.
B. It focuses on interactions with travelers.
C. It discourages travelers from learning about history.
D. It may contribute to the preservation of traditional crafts.
26. What does the underlined word “feasible” mean in the fourth paragraph
A. Attractive. B. Comfortable. C. Classical. D. Practical.
27. What can be inferred about the future of slow travel
A. It will cost less as time passes.
B. It will only be affordable for rich travelers.
C. It may become more popular in the future.
D. It will take the place of traditional tourism entirely.
【答案】24. B 25. D 26. D 27. C
C
A recent fireworks show, held in the Himalayas by a well-known outdoor brand (品牌) working with a famous artist, has drawn widespread attention and heated discussions. The event, wanting to put art and nature together, has raised concerns about its possible influence on the local ecosystem.
The brand said that the event was designed to celebrate the beauty of nature through art. However, many people have expressed worries about the environmental results of setting off fireworks in such an ecologically sensitive region.
Environmental experts point out that the Himalayas are home to unique wildlife and plants that could be disturbed by the loud noises and bright lights of fireworks. Moreover the remains of fireworks might pollute the soil and water sources, which are extremely important for the local environment.
Although the brand stated that they had taken measures to reduce the environmental impact, such as using biodegradable (可生物降解的) materials and cleaning up after the event, the public remains unsure. Some people believe that no fireworks show should be held in such a fragile natural habitat.
Local authorities (管理部门) have also begun to look into the event. They emphasized the importance of balancing artistic activities with environmental protection, especially in areas as fragile as the Himalayas.
This event has caused a broader discussion about the responsibility of artists and brands to protect nature when expressing art. It reminds us that while art is valuable, it should not come at the cost of harming the environment.
Up to now, the brand has not yet given a detailed follow-up plan about the show. All eyes are on the brand, and the public is eagerly waiting to see how the brand will reply to these concerns.
28. What is the purpose of the show
A. To attract more tourists.
B. To draw attention to the brand.
C. To test new firework materials.
D. To express the beauty of nature with art.
29. Which might be a direct result of the show
A. Attracting more tourists. B. Polluting local resources.
C. Killing wildlife and plants. D. Improving the brand’s image.
30. Which is the key focus of the local authorities on this event
A. Supporting more artistic events.
B. Stopping all fireworks in the area.
C. Making rules on artistic activities.
D. Keeping nature and art hand in hand.
31. What might be expected of the brand by the public
A. To say sorry to the public. B. To help fix the environment.
C. To pay for the nature damage. D. To improve fireworks’ quality.
【答案】28. D 29. B 30. D 31. B

New era (时代) requires a new vocabulary. Will we still talk about the “mobile” phone when all phones are mobile, or when they are implanted within us
Technology is everywhere nowadays, especially at work. Some people are really good at using all the cool new tools that keep popping up. They have something called a TQ, or technology quotient. Think of it like a superpower for understanding the latest tech stuff that our great-grandparents would have found really impossible. Having a high TQ means you’re good at using all the cool new things that not everyone knows about yet.
The examples are common and becoming more and more frequent. For the parents it might be a home-school video class. For the brand manager it might be search engine improving, which helps the brand’s content rank higher in search results. And for the doctor, it might be the role of artificial intelligence in supporting the analysis (分析) of a CT scan. TQ tries to quantify our ability to make wise use of present technologies and to quickly adapt, embrace (拥抱) and make use of future creations. This adoption is of great importance from a variety of perspectives, from social to business. One trip into the world of ChatGPT and we can see how the way AI and search interact and operate is changing for just about everyone.
Any Mom or Dad can understand the value of IQ and EQ in predicting the potential for a child’s success. But what about technology The ability for the child and the teacher to understand, embrace and assimilate technology will be a key aspect of their lives as we speed into the future. We are increasingly defined by technology and our active participation in everything from smart phones to Facebook. It might just be time for the basic human needs of food, water and shelter to include technology too. And when that happens, it just might be a good idea to measure it.
While this shift brings challenges, it’s unstoppable. As TQ rises, it will combine with IQ and EQ, reshaping how we live, work, and learn — turning adaptability with tech into a measurable advantage.
32. What is TQ according to the text
A. Speed of learning new languages. B. Skill of repairing high-tech products.
C. Talent to follow modern changes. D. Ability to use new technologies.
33. Which of the following people has a high TQ
A. A grandparent who finds new tech devices challenging.
B. A manager who often uses modern search engines.
C. A doctor who analyzes CT scans with AI’s help.
D. A mom who watches videos of her child’s school life.
34. What does the underlined word “assimilate” in the fourth paragraph mean
A. Depend on. B. Take in. C. Lie in. D. Turn down.
35. What might be the best title for the passage
A. Why Are IQ and EQ Important for TQ
B. Where to Start Adapting to TQ Changes
C. How Has TQ Changed in the Modern Era
D. What Makes TQ the New Intelligence
【答案】32. D 33. C 34. B 35. D

67. 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。
Peter woke up early in the morning. He went downstairs in a hurry and started to have his breakfast as quickly as possible.
“Why are you in such a hurry, early bird ” Mum asked him. “We will have an English spelling test today, Mum,” Peter said. “Mr. White promised to offer prizes to those who get full marks. I’ve been studying the word list since last week. Although the words are difficult, I am well prepared for the test.”
Peter reviewed the spelling of each word once more carefully when Dad drove him to school. At last, it was time for the students to have the test. “Responsibility,” Mr. White started. Peter wrote it on his test paper quickly and confidently. “The second word: contribution,” Mr. White said. “So easy,” Peter thought. He quickly wrote the word down. Thirty words later, the test papers were collected by Mr. White.
After marking the test papers, Mr. White said, “Three of you won a prize today for excellent test scores. Peter, David and Mary scored 100 percent in the spelling test!” Mr. White praised them. Meanwhile, he gave the three students each a dictionary. Peter’s was an English-Chinese dictionary — the one he liked best. Peter was so excited that he held it high when his classmates cheered. “This is my happiest moment,” Peter thought.
After Mr. White gave the test paper back, Peter had a look at the words, feeling proud of his spelling. All of a sudden, the word “contribusion” confused him. It didn’t seem right. Peter began to compare them after taking out the word list. He had spelled it wrong.
“What should I do ” Peter said to himself. “I expect my classmates to think I’m a master of spelling. If I tell Mr. White one of my spelling words is wrong, I’ll have to give my prize back.”
Staring at the red sign “100%” which was written on his test paper, Peter was lost in thought. After a while, he remembered a lesson Mum used to teach him — we ought to be an honest person.
注意：
1. 续写词数应为150个左右；
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Slowly, Peter raised his hand.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Mr. White smiled at Peter. “He taught us all a lesson on being honest.”
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】
Slowly, Peter raised his hand. “Mr. White, I didn’t score 100 percent in the test. I misspelled a word.” He stood up and handed his teacher the dictionary he liked best and his test paper. “I spelled ‘contribution’ with ‘s-i’ instead of ‘t-i’. Peter could feel his classmates looking at him with surprise as he walked back to his desk. Mr. White held up Peter’s test paper. “Class,” he said, “Peter did something even more important than spelling every word correctly in a test.”
Mr. White smiled at Peter. “He taught us all a lesson on being honest.” Peter looked around and found many of his classmates were smiling at him. “Peter, I want you to have this dictionary because you set a good example to all of us. We are all proud of you, and you deserve this prize,” Mr. White said. Peter took the dictionary from his teacher and expressed his thanks to Mr. White. Meanwhile, he couldn’t wait to show it to Mum and tell her one of his best days ever.
