Don’t miss out-save￡100 pp
We don’t think an excuse is required, but here is one of many great reasons why you should book your next ski holiday now-our saver week discount is coming to an end! All of our holidays are discounted by￡100 per person every week in January and mid-March.
Why do we recommend January skiing
Undoubtedly your primary concern when choosing a ski holiday is the snow. With temperatures at their coldest and slopes (斜坡) at their quietest, it’s safe to say good snow conditions are almost guaranteed.
New year, new gear! For those of you renting equipment and/or clothing, you can be sure to find some brand new hire ready to carve through that fresh January powder.
If you’re looking to avoid the busy school holidays, you’ve hit a jackpot. The slopes are empty and you don’t have to wait long!
If you’re unsure about January, mid-March skiing could be for you.
March has an excellent track record for snowfall and you’re guaranteed to spend most lunch times bathing in the sun! March can offer the best of both worlds with fresh snow and blue bird days.
Similarly to January holidays, March is often far quieter than December and February periods. Remember, the sooner you can get up those lifts, the sooner you can slide down the freshly cleaned pistes (滑雪道).
We’re confident we have a ski holiday perfect for you. Don’t wait though, book before the end of the month to save ￡100 pp. Call us now at 0208 875 1957!
1. What is the major concern of people who want to take a ski holiday
A Price range. B. Snow conditions.

2. Why is mid-March a special time for skiing
A. It is far quieter than January.
B. It can help avoid busy school holidays.
C. It has a record for the lowest temperature.
D. It guarantees both fresh snow and sunny days.
3. What is the purpose of the text
A. To spread knowledge about skiing.
B. To encourage more people to ski.
C. To offer skiers some suggestions.
D. To advertise a ski holiday discount.
【答案】1. B 2. D 3. D

Jo Land was surprised when she realized how much her youngest son’s school uniform cost. “A jumper was￡25. A polo shirt was￡15,” she says. “If it was this expensive for us, how on earth must families with three or four children manage ”
In December 2021, Land put a box outside her house, with a sign reading, “School uniform drop-off”. She set up a Facebook group and asked people to drop good-quality used uniforms into the box. The operation started to grow almost immediately. “Some weeks I give out up to 48 uniforms,“ she says. People drive up and drop the clothing: she sorts through it, keeps it in her “stock room” and posts details about donations on the Facebook group. The first parent to message her gets the items for nothing. Land puts the items in a named bag and then returns it to the box. Recipients (接受者) can come and collect at their leisure.
“Being able to access good-quality preloved school uniforms has been a lifeline,“ says Kristina, a mother of two. ”It’s just amazing.“
“Every child going to school deserves to feel smart and proud,” Land says. “We don’t want children to go to school feeling negative, because that affects their learning. Land has noticed that people rarely take without also giving. Sometimes people leave flowers on the box, or they drop off some outgrown clothes too.
Right now, Land is thinking about all the people in her community who will struggle this winter and she gets so many messages from people who are absolutely desperate, because they cannot afford uniforms for their children. Her determination to ensure children can access the uniforms they deserve grows ever stronger.
4. What inspired Land to set up the free uniform exchange
A. Her personal experience.
B. The appeals on Facebook.
C. Poor families’ complaints.
D. Her youngest son’s request.
5. What does paragraph 2 focus on
A. How the school uniforms are selected.
B. The importance of the Facebook group.
C. The popularity of the exchange project.
D. How the school uniform exchange works.
6. What can be inferred from the last two paragraphs
A. School learning is associated with fashion.
B. Recipients are required to give by the project.
C. Many people in Land’s community need uniforms.
D. Land is motivated to design new uniforms for children.
7. Which of the following words can best describe Land

D. Ambitious and humorous.
【答案】4. A 5. D 6. C 7. C

How important has Internet become in our lives The Pew Research Center conducted a survey to celebrate the Web’s 25th birthday. The researchers were greatly heartened by what they found.
“In 2006, only 14 percent of American adults used Internet. Today, it’s 87 percent,” said Lee Rainie, the director of the Pew Research Center’s Internet Project. “It is what has impressed us the most.”
The survey also showed that 70 percent of the Internet users have been treated kindly or generously online, while 25 percent of respondents said they have been treated unkindly. More than half—56 percent—of users said they’ve seen an online community come together to help someone solve a problem. 25 percent said they’ve left an online group because members were too unpleasant.
When Pew asked questions about whether being online has enriched people’s relationships—or not—the results were very positive: 67 percent of Internet users said their online communication with family and friends has generally strengthened those relationships. Only 18 percent said it has generally weakened those relationships.
According to the survey, 53 percent of Internet users said Internet has become the hardest tech tool to give up. It is 15 percent higher than the result of a similar survey conducted in 2006. In fact, more people said they would have a harder time stopping using Internet than giving up TV. (These days, so much great television streams across the Internet that it makes sense.)
“In our survey, we have found that the Web makes a few people very unhappy. There’s strong evidence pointing to the fact that Internet users tend to compare their daily lives with the ‘highlight moments’ of their friends’ lives,” said Lee Rainie. “It’s really silly.”
8. Which is the most impressive result of the latest survey
A. Users’ dependence on Internet. B. The fast growth of Internet users.
C. The kindness of online communities. D. The strengthened family relationships.
9. How many participants found it the hardest to give up Internet in 2006
A. 15%. B. 38%. C. 53%. D. 68%.
10. What message does Lee Rainie seem to convey in the last paragraph
A. Online depression cannot be avoided. B. Don’t show off in online communities.
C. Don’t make unnecessary comparison. D. Copy your friends’ wonderful lifestyles.
11. How do the researchers feel about the results of the survey
A. Optimistic. B. Worried. C. Unconcerned. D. Doubtful.
【答案】8. B 9. B 10. C 11. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是说明文。研究人员通过调查研究发现互联网用户数量的爆炸式增长，但是网络也使很多人感到不快乐 。
【8题详解】
细节理解题，根据第二段“‘In 2006, only 14 percent of American adults used Internet. Today, it’s 87 percent,’ said Lee Rainie, the director of the Pew Research Center’s Internet Project. ‘It is what has impressed us the most.’（2006年，只有14%的美国成年人使用互联网。皮尤研究中心(Pew Research Center)互联网项目主管李 雷尼(Lee Rainie)说，如今这个数字是87%。“这是给我们印象最深的。”）”及对比其他各项指标数值可知，互联网用户数量的爆炸式增长给研究人员留下了最深刻的印象。故选B。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第五段“According to the survey, 53 percent of Internet users said Internet has become the hardest tech tool to give up. It is 15 percent higher than the result of a similar survey conducted in2006.（调查显示，53%的互联网用户表示，互联网已成为最难放弃的科技工具。这比2006年进行的一项类似调查的结果高出15%。）”可知，百分之38受访者认为2006年最难戒掉互联网。故选B。
【10题详解】
细节理解题，根据最后一段“‘There’s strong evidence pointing to the fact that Internet users tend to compare their daily lives with the ‘highlight moments’ of their friends’ lives,’ said Lee Rainie. ‘It’s really silly.’（Lee Rainie说:“有强有力的证据表明，互联网用户倾向于将自己的日常生活与朋友生活中的‘精彩时刻’进行比较。”“这真的很愚蠢。”）”可知，Lee Rainie是在提醒网民不要进行错误的攀比。故选C。
【11题详解】
推理判断题，通读全文，尤其是第一段“The Pew Research Center conducted a survey to celebrate the Web’s 25th birthday. The researchers were greatly heartened by what they found.（皮尤研究中心为庆祝网络诞生25周年进行了一项调查。研究人员对他们的发现感到非常振奋。）”可推断，研究人员对互联网的普及持乐观态度。故选A。

Mickey Mouse welcomed visitors to his new home in China on June 16, 2016 as Disney opened its first theme park in the country.
The park, located in the city of Shanghai, opened with fireworks.
Joe Schott, president and general manager of Shanghai Disney Resort, said, “I can promise you that there is still so much left to be revealed, and I cannot wait to share it all with you in the months and years to come.”
Tens of thousands streamed into Shanghai Disneyland for its debut(问世), an event that was nearly two decades in the making. The $ 5.5 billion resort(度假胜地) covers 963 acres, but Disney has already begun expansion.
Company officials said they tried to reflect Chinese preferences in the new park.
“We didn’t build Disneyland in China, we built China’s Disneyland,” said Bob Iger, Disney’s chairman.
There’s a traditional Chinese tea house featuring local food. The Lion King performed in Mandarin for the first time, features the Monkey King and characters dressed in Chinese opera garb(服装)to appeal to an Asian audience.
In the castle, guests not only walk through, as they do in other Disney parks, they can also eat and shop. When it was discovered that Chinese people didn’t have a favourite Disney princess, the company decided that the castle would feature all the princesses. Parks in California and France are based on the Sleeping Beauty story.
“The visitors can learn the princesses over time, and this gives them an opportunity to have an introduction to all of the princess stories,” said executive producer Ali Rubinstein.
However, China’s Disneyland sometimes are not closely related to China. Disney’s only animated film based on a Chinese story, Mulan, which tells the tale of a Chinese warrior woman, got neither its own ride nor stage show. The character appears only as a statue and afloat in the parade.
12. What’s Joe Schott’s attitude to Shanghai Disney Resort
A. Disappointed. B. Concerned. C. Doubtful. D. Confident.
13. What can be learned from what Bob said in paragraph 6
A. They build the theme park in China.
B. The theme park belongs to China.
C. The theme park has Chinese elements.
D. The theme park has a long Chinese history.
14. Why does China’s Disneyland have all kinds of princesses
A. Chinese people have no certain favourite Disney princess.
B. Chinese people don’t know any princess characters in Disney movies.
C. Chinese people believe “the more, the better”.
D. Parks in other countries are based on the Sleeping Beauty story.
15. What is the purpose of giving the Mulan example
A. To show the Chinese character of Disneyland.
B. To show Mulan is an important part of Chinese culture.
C. To show China’s Disneyland has not reflected enough Chinese culture.
D. To show Disneyland has too few Chinese character films.
【答案】12. D 13. C 14. A 15. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是说明文。文章主要介绍了中国上海的迪士尼乐园。设计者在里面融入了大量的中国元素。当然也提到了一些遗憾的地方，对中国元素还是有一些没有做到位的地方。
【12题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“I can promise you that there is still so much left to be revealed, and I cannot wait to share it all with you in the months and years to come.”(我可以向你保证，还有很多事情要透露，我迫不及待地想在未来的岁月里与大家分享这一切。)可知，Joe Schott对上海迪士尼乐园的态度是充满信心的。故选D。
【13题详解】
推理判断题。根据第六段““We didn’t build Disneyland in China, we built China’s Disneyland,” said Bob Iger, Disney’s chairman.”(迪士尼董事长鲍勃·伊格尔表示：“我们不是在中国建造迪士尼乐园，而是建造了中国的迪士尼。”)和第七段“There’s a traditional Chinese tea house featuring local food. The Lion King performed in Mandarin for the first time, features the Monkey King and characters dressed in Chinese opera garb(服装)to appeal to an Asian audience.”(有一家传统的中国茶馆，以当地食物为特色。《狮子王》首次以普通话演出，主角是孙悟空和身着中国戏曲服装的角色(服装)吸引亚洲观众。)可知，接下来提到的中国茶社、当地食物、中国戏曲服装、美猴王等都在说上海的迪士尼是融入了中国当地文化的迪士尼乐园。故选C。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据第八段“When it was discovered that Chinese people didn’t have a favourite Disney princess, the company decided that the castle would feature all the princesses.”(当发现中国人没有最喜欢的迪斯尼公主时，该公司决定将所有公主都放在城堡里。) 可知，因为中国人没有特定的最受喜爱的迪士尼公主，所以在中国迪士尼乐园有迪士尼电影中所有的公主。故选A。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“However, China’s Disneyland sometimes are not closely related to China. Disney’s only animated film based on a Chinese story, Mulan, which tells the tale of a Chinese warrior woman, got neither its own ride nor stage show. The character appears only as a statue and afloat in the parade.”(然而，中国的迪斯尼乐园有时与中国没有密切联系。迪士尼唯一一部基于中国故事的动画片《花木兰》，讲述了一位中国女战士的故事，既没有自己的骑乘节目，也没有舞台剧。这个角色只是一尊雕像，漂浮在游行队伍中。)可知，文中提到花木兰主要是指花木兰电影是迪士尼拍过的唯一以中国故事为背景的动画电影，而这个角色却在中国迪士尼只是一个雕塑，没有进一步挖掘成舞台剧等。表明中国的迪士尼乐园没有充分反映中国文化。故选C。

【19题详解】
上文“There is always another way.(总会有别的办法的)”提出有别的办法，D项“If Plan A fails, turn to Plan B or Plan C.(如果A计划失败了，就转向B计划或C计划)”承接上文，提出需要备选方案，上下文语意连贯。故选D项。

【导语】这是一篇记叙文。主要讲述了身份认同一直是海外华人的一个重要话题，开启了华人在世界各地数百年的移民历程。这些移民浪潮的后代塑造了他们每一个新家园，又被他们的新家园所塑造。
【36题详解】
考查动词时态。句意：自15世纪中国商人在印度尼西亚各地建立唐人街，开启华人在世界各地数百年的移民历程以来，身份认同一直是海外华人的一个重要话题。此处是句子的谓语部分，根据since引导的时间状语从句，应使用现在完成时，主语Identity是第三人称单数形式，助动词应使用has。故填has been。
【37题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：自15世纪中国商人在印度尼西亚各地建立唐人街，开启华人在世界各地数百年的移民历程以来，身份认同一直是海外华人的一个重要话题。分析句子可知，此处为非谓语动词作状语，因动词kick和逻辑主语Chinese traders为主动关系，所以为现在分词形式。故填kicking。
【38题详解】
考查代词。句意：这些移民浪潮的后代塑造了他们每一个新家园，又被他们的新家园所塑造。由空后new homes为名词短语可知，此处缺少形容词性物主代词作定语，表示“他们的”。故填their。
【39题详解】
考查时态。句意：许多海外华人在童年时吃过的中国地方美食中找到了家的感觉。此处是定语从句的谓语动词，根据句意以及该句中的时间状语during childhood可知， 定语从句描述过去发生的事，eat应使用一般过去时。故填ate。
【40题详解】
考查副词。句意：对他们中的许多人来说，家里的口味就像是明显的中国食物和不典型的中国食物的混合。此处为副词typically作状语修饰形容词Chinese“中国的”。故填typically。
【41题详解】
考查定语从句。句意：“粤菜特别看重新鲜的食材，所以我父母喜欢在太平洋西海岸寻找最好的食材，”华裔加拿大美食作家、中餐厅奖(Chinese Restaurant Awards)创始人(Lee F. Man)说。分析句子可知，该空引导限制性定语从句，先行词the best指物，关系词在从句中作主语成分，由于先行词是the best，所以为关系代词只能为that。故填that。
【42题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：爸爸抓的鱼，妈妈采的白菜，还有当地养的鸡，都上了我们的餐桌。分析句子可知，此处为非谓语动词作后置定语修饰前面的名词cabbages，因cabbages和动词gather为被动关系，所以为过去分词形式。故填gathered。
【43题详解】
考查介词以及固定短语。句意：爸爸抓的鱼，妈妈采的白菜，还有当地养的鸡，都上了我们的餐桌。分析句子可知，此处为固定短语make one’s way to“前往，向……走去”。故填to。
【44题详解】
考查名词复数形式。句意：许多受访者将厨房描述为了解真实自我的窗口。根据句意以及主语Many interviewees为复数名词可知，此处为名词self的复数形式selves“自我”和主语相呼应。故填selves。
【45题详解】
考查冠词。句意：加拿大华裔厨师 (Gabe Chan)在采访中说，“中餐在我们之前就存在了，在我们之后还会存在很长时间。”根据句意以及空后Chinese-Canadian chef为单数名词可知，此处为泛指“一个加拿大华裔厨师”，后面Chinese开头发音是辅音，应使用不定冠词a。故填a。

Dear schoolmates,
On behalf of the Students’ Union, I am writing to call for your active participation in a campaign to promote physical exercise and health on our campus.
First of all, let’s take a look at the current physical condition of our students. With the rapid development of technology, more students spend a lot of time on electronic devices, leading to a “face-down” lifestyle.

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。
“Mom！” I screamed as I looked through the window, “Why is my Ink Spot sitting in Mrs. Cleary’s window？”
Mom pushed past me to confirm it. Sure enough, across the street was Ink Spot cleaning himself in the window of Mrs. Cleary’s sitting room. I couldn’t believe my eyes. He was my cat, not Mrs. Cleary’s. She had already adopted twelve cats. Why must she keep my cat？I could feel anger boiling up inside me. Meanwhile, Ink Spot’s leaving without any signs upset me. A sense of being left out hit me hard.
Ink Spot was special for me. After my baby sister’s birth, “my” parents’ time was taken by her. It seemed no one in the family cared about or even noticed me. Worse still, I was packed off to a kindergarten. I hated being left out from the bottom of my heart.
It was when mom noticed me weeping in a corner one night that things began to change. After that, Ink Spot came into my life. Every night, he curled（卷曲）up beside me in bed and he was there for me after school when I raced home just to be with him.
I fell in love with Ink Spot the first time I saw its tiny black and white kitten, for which I called him Ink Spot. Mom and daddy beamed with pleasure as my eyes danced with joy again. It was the first time that I had smiled since my little baby sister came into the family. As for me, he was more than a cat. Actually, he was my life.
But today when I came home, Ink Spot was in Mrs. Cleary’s window. I wanted him back. But mom insisted that if Ink Spot stayed at Mrs. Cleary’s, that meant it was where he wanted to be. “No！Mom, Ink Spot is my cat”, I protested wildly but I had to admit the truth of mom’s words. Standing on the sidewalk, I was at a loss as to what to do. Staring at Ink Spot for a while, I couldn’t stand the anger any longer.
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 walked towards Mrs. Cleary’s house hurriedly and knocked at the door angrily.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Upon seeing me, Ink Spot jumped off the window, running towards me in a flash.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】I walked towards Mrs. Cleary’s house hurriedly and knocked at the door angrily. The moment she opened the door, I asked Mrs. Cleary with watery eyes, “Why is my cat in your window？” Confused, Mrs. Cleary responded， “I didn’t know he was yours. I just thought he was another abandoned cat, so I took him in just like I took in all the rest. If what I did has hurt you, I am awfully sorry.” Then she led me directly to the sitting room, where cats were playing happily.
Upon seeing me, Ink Spot jumped off the window, running towards me in a flash. A flood of excitement passed through my body. I immediately picked him up and held him close as he rubbed beneath my chin purring loudly. Seeing my cat well taken care of, I realized I had misunderstood my caring neighbor. Now my anger gave way to gratitude. I thanked her again and again before I took Ink Spot to my home, where I thought he should belong. The lost and found companion made me feel I was someone again.

Don’t miss out-save￡100 pp
We don’t think an excuse is required, but here is one of many great reasons why you should book your next ski holiday now-our saver week discount is coming to an end! All of our holidays are discounted by￡100 per person every week in January and mid-March.
Why do we recommend January skiing
Undoubtedly your primary concern when choosing a ski holiday is the snow. With temperatures at their coldest and slopes (斜坡) at their quietest, it’s safe to say good snow conditions are almost guaranteed.
New year, new gear! For those of you renting equipment and/or clothing, you can be sure to find some brand new hire ready to carve through that fresh January powder.
If you’re looking to avoid the busy school holidays, you’ve hit a jackpot. The slopes are empty and you don’t have to wait long!
If you’re unsure about January, mid-March skiing could be for you.
March has an excellent track record for snowfall and you’re guaranteed to spend most lunch times bathing in the sun! March can offer the best of both worlds with fresh snow and blue bird days.
Similarly to January holidays, March is often far quieter than December and February periods. Remember, the sooner you can get up those lifts, the sooner you can slide down the freshly cleaned pistes (滑雪道).
We’re confident we have a ski holiday perfect for you. Don’t wait though, book before the end of the month to save ￡100 pp. Call us now at 0208 875 1957!
1. What is the major concern of people who want to take a ski holiday
A. Price range. B. Snow conditions.
C. Temperature changes. D. Equipment rental.
2. Why is mid-March a special time for skiing
A. It is far quieter than January.
B. It can help avoid busy school holidays.
C. It has a record for the lowest temperature.
D. It guarantees both fresh snow and sunny days.
3. What is the purpose of the text
A. To spread knowledge about skiing.
B. To encourage more people to ski.
C. To offer skiers some suggestions.
D. To advertise a ski holiday discount.

Jo Land was surprised when she realized how much her youngest son’s school uniform cost. “A jumper was￡25. A polo shirt was￡15,” she says. “If it was this expensive for us, how on earth must families with three or four children manage ”
In December 2021, Land put a box outside her house, with a sign reading, “School uniform drop-off”. She set up a Facebook group and asked people to drop good-quality used uniforms into the box. The operation started to grow almost immediately. “Some weeks I give out up to 48 uniforms,“ she says. People drive up and drop the clothing: she sorts through it, keeps it in her “stock room” and posts details about donations on the Facebook group. The first parent to message her gets the items for nothing. Land puts the items in a named bag and then returns it to the box. Recipients (接受者) can come and collect at their leisure.
“Being able to access good-quality preloved school uniforms has been a lifeline,“ says Kristina, a mother of two. ”It’s just amazing.“
“Every child going to school deserves to feel smart and proud,” Land says. “We don’t want children to go to school feeling negative, because that affects their learning. Land has noticed that people rarely take without also giving. Sometimes people leave flowers on the box, or they drop off some outgrown clothes too.
Right now, Land is thinking about all the people in her community who will struggle this winter and she gets so many messages from people who are absolutely desperate, because they cannot afford uniforms for their children. Her determination to ensure children can access the uniforms they deserve grows ever stronger.
4. What inspired Land to set up the free uniform exchange
A. Her personal experience.
B. The appeals on Facebook.
C. Poor families’ complaints.
D. Her youngest son’s request.
5. What does paragraph 2 focus on
A. How the school uniforms are selected.
B. The importance of the Facebook group.
C. The popularity of the exchange project.
D. How the school uniform exchange works.
6. What can be inferred from the last two paragraphs
A. School learning is associated with fashion.
B. Recipients are required to give by the project.
C Many people in Land’s community need uniforms.
D. Land is motivated to design new uniforms for children.
7. Which of the following words can best describe Land
A. Brave and grateful.
B. Honest and energetic.
C. Kind-hearted and creative.
D. Ambitious and humorous.
C
How important has Internet become in our lives The Pew Research Center conducted a survey to celebrate the Web’s 25th birthday The researchers were greatly heartened by what they found.
“In 2006, only 14 percent of American adults used Internet. Today, it’s 87 percent,” said Lee Rainie, the director of the Pew Research Center’s Internet Project. “It is what has impressed us the most.”
The survey also showed that 70 percent of the Internet users have been treated kindly or generously online, while 25 percent of respondents said they have been treated unkindly. More than half—56 percent—of users said they’ve seen an online community come together to help someone solve a problem. 25 percent said they’ve left an online group because members were too unpleasant.
When Pew asked questions about whether being online has enriched people’s relationships—or not—the results were very positive: 67 percent of Internet users said their online communication with family and friends has generally strengthened those relationships. Only 18 percent said it has generally weakened those relationships.
According to the survey, 53 percent of Internet users said Internet has become the hardest tech tool to give up. It is 15 percent higher than the result of a similar survey conducted in 2006. In fact, more people said they would have a harder time stopping using Internet than giving up TV. (These days, so much great television streams across the Internet that it makes sense.)
“In our survey, we have found that the Web makes a few people very unhappy. There’s strong evidence pointing to the fact that Internet users tend to compare their daily lives with the ‘highlight moments’ of their friends’ lives,” said Lee Rainie. “It’s really silly.”
8. Which is the most impressive result of the latest survey
A. Users’ dependence on Internet. B. The fast growth of Internet users.
C The kindness of online communities. D. The strengthened family relationships.
9 How many participants found it the hardest to give up Internet in 2006
A. 15%. B. 38%. C. 53%. D. 68%.
10. What message does Lee Rainie seem to convey in the last paragraph
A. Online depression cannot be avoided. B. Don’t show off in online communities.
C. Don’t make unnecessary comparison. D. Copy your friends’ wonderful lifestyles.
11. How do the researchers feel about the results of the survey
A. Optimistic. B. Worried. C. Unconcerned. D. Doubtful.

Mickey Mouse welcomed visitors to his new home in China on June 16, 2016 as Disney opened its first theme park in the country.
The park, located in the city of Shanghai, opened with fireworks.
Joe Schott, president and general manager of Shanghai Disney Resort, said, “I can promise you that there is still so much left to be revealed, and I cannot wait to share it all with you in the months and years to come.”
Tens of thousands streamed into Shanghai Disneyland for its debut(问世), an event that was nearly two decades in the making. The $ 5.5 billion resort(度假胜地) covers 963 acres, but Disney has already begun expansion.
Company officials said they tried to reflect Chinese preferences in the new park.
“We didn’t build Disneyland in China, we built China’s Disneyland,” said Bob Iger, Disney’s chairman.
There’s a traditional Chinese tea house featuring local food. The Lion King performed in Mandarin for the first time, features the Monkey King and characters dressed in Chinese opera garb(服装)to appeal to an Asian audience.
In the castle, guests not only walk through, as they do in other Disney parks, they can also eat and shop. When it was discovered that Chinese people didn’t have a favourite Disney princess, the company decided that the castle would feature all the princesses. Parks in California and France are based on the Sleeping Beauty story.
“The visitors can learn the princesses over time, and this gives them an opportunity to have an introduction to all of the princess stories,” said executive producer Ali Rubinstein.
However, China’s Disneyland sometimes are not closely related to China. Disney’s only animated film based on a Chinese story, Mulan, which tells the tale of a Chinese warrior woman, got neither its own ride nor stage show. The character appears only as a statue and afloat in the parade.
12. What’s Joe Schott’s attitude to Shanghai Disney Resort
A. Disappointed. B. Concerned. C. Doubtful. D. Confident.
13. What can be learned from what Bob said in paragraph 6
A. They build the theme park in China.
B. The theme park belongs to China.
C. The theme park has Chinese elements.
D. The theme park has a long Chinese history.
14. Why does China’s Disneyland have all kinds of princesses
A. Chinese people have no certain favourite Disney princess.
B. Chinese people don’t know any princess characters in Disney movies.
C. Chinese people believe “the more, the better”.
D. Parks in other countries are based on the Sleeping Beauty story.
15. What is the purpose of giving the Mulan example
A. To show the Chinese character of Disneyland.
B. To show Mulan is an important part of Chinese culture.
C. To show China’s Disneyland has not reflected enough Chinese culture.
D. To show Disneyland has too few Chinese character films.

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。
“Mom！” I screamed as I looked through the window, “Why is my Ink Spot sitting in Mrs. Cleary’s window？”
Mom pushed past me to confirm it. Sure enough, across the street was Ink Spot cleaning himself in the window of Mrs. Cleary’s sitting room. I couldn’t believe my eyes. He was my cat, not Mrs. Cleary’s. She had already adopted twelve cats. Why must she keep my cat？I could feel anger boiling up inside me. Meanwhile, Ink Spot’s leaving without any signs upset me. A sense of being left out hit me hard.
Ink Spot was special for me. After my baby sister’s birth, “my” parents’ time was taken by her. It seemed no one in the family cared about or even noticed me. Worse still, I was packed off to a kindergarten. I hated being left out from the bottom of my heart.
It was when mom noticed me weeping in a corner one night that things began to change. After that, Ink Spot came into my life. Every night, he curled（卷曲）up beside me in bed and he was there for me after school when I raced home just to be with him.
I fell in love with Ink Spot the first time I saw its tiny black and white kitten, for which I called him Ink Spot. Mom and daddy beamed with pleasure as my eyes danced with joy again. It was the first time that I had smiled since my little baby sister came into the family. As for me, he was more than a cat. Actually, he was my life.
But today when I came home Ink Spot was in Mrs. Cleary’s window. I wanted him back. But mom insisted that if Ink Spot stayed at Mrs. Cleary’s, that meant it was where he wanted to be. “No！Mom, Ink Spot is my cat”, I protested wildly but I had to admit the truth of mom’s words. Standing on the sidewalk, I was at a loss as to what to do. Staring at Ink Spot for a while, I couldn’t stand the anger any longer.
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 walked towards Mrs. Cleary’s house hurriedly and knocked at the door angrily.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Upon seeing me, Ink Spot jumped off the window, running towards me in a flash.
