It will be the same story for the next couple of days, after which we can expect strong winds to bring in some much cooler conditions. Winds as strong as the ones predicted sometimes cause problems with air and train travel, although no warnings have been issued yet. However, police have advised car drivers to take care in exposed areas. After the windy spell, the weather should calm down. While there certainly won’t be a drought, it will be quite dry, with no risk of the flooding we saw in April last year. Tune in for our next hourly news summaries. Traffic news will be updated every two hours and you might be interested to know that there’s a special weather documentary in three hours.

Hanan Al Hroub, from Bethlehem in the West Bank, was awarded the Global Teacher Prize at a ceremony in Dubai. Hroub accepted the award “as a win for all teachers in general and Palestinian teachers in particular”.
Hroub became a teacher after her children and husband were shot on their way home from school. “It changed my children’s behavior, personalities and studies,” she said in a video. “I felt that I was alone in getting my children through this. No teacher had helped me get my children back on track.”
With no help from the education system, Hroub decided to teach her children on her own. She started inventing games at home and inviting their neighbors’ children to participate. Gradually, her children’s behavior and grades began to improve. Now she teaches by using playing and learning at school to help children fight violence. “Some children may not directly experience violence in our country. However, they see it on the screens and in social media and that still affects them,” Hroub said.
“I tell all the teachers, whether they are Palestinian or from around the world that ‘Our job is humane and its goals are noble. We must teach our children that their only weapon is knowledge.’ Teachers could change the world.”
Pope Francis announced in a video conference that Hroub had won the award. Francis said that a part of education is to teach children how to play in order to learn the joy of life and that teachers are the builders of peace and unity. “I would like to congratulate Hanan Al Hroub for winning this prize due to the importance that she gave to the role of playing in child’s education,” Francis said.
24. Why did Hanan Al Hroub become a teacher
A. To teach children to keep away from violence.
B. To ease the effect of violence on her children.
C. To promote education level for children.
D. To introduce a new method of education.
25. How does Hroub educate children
A. By learning and creating.
B. By watching and learning.
C. By participating and cooperating.
D. By playing and learning.
26. What is Hroub’s attitude towards her job
A. Objective. B. Disappointed. C. Faithful. D. Cautious.
27. What do the words of Hroub and Pope Francis have in common in the last two paragraphs
A. They both valued teachers.
B. They were both against violence.
C. They both expressed hopes for children.
D. They both showed their feelings about the prize.
【答案】24. B 25. D 26. C 27. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是记叙文。讲述了全球教师奖获得者Hanan Al Hroub 以及她背后的故事。
【详解】1.推理判断题。根据文章第二段中的“I felt that I was alone in getting my children through this. No teacher had helped me get my children back on track. (我觉得我独自一人让我的孩子们经历这些。没有老师帮助我让我的孩子们回到正轨。)”和第三段中的“With no help from the education system, Hroub decided to teach her children on her own.(由于没有教育系统的帮助，Hroub决定自己教孩子。)”可知，Hroub认为在帮助她的孩子度过暴力带来的影响的过程中，她是孤独的。没有老师帮助她将她的孩子带回正轨。由于教育系统没有给 Hroub 提供帮助，Hroub决定自己教育孩子。由此可见Hroub成为老师是为了减轻暴力对她的孩子的影响，故选B项。
2.细节理解题。根据文章第三段中的“Now she teaches by using playing and learning at school to help children fight violence. (现在，她通过在学校玩耍和学习来帮助孩子们对抗暴力。)”可知，现在Hroub在学校用玩游戏和学习的方式教学，帮助孩子对抗暴力。故选D项。
3.推理判断题。从文章第四段Hroub的话语“I tell all the teachers, whether they are Palestinian or from around the world that ‘Our job is humane and its goals are noble. We must teach our children that their only weapon is knowledge.’ Teachers could change the world.(我告诉所有的老师，不管他们是巴勒斯坦人还是来自世界各地，“我们的工作是人道的，我们的目标是崇高的。我们必须教育我们的孩子，他们唯一的武器是知识。”教师可以改变世界。)”中可以看出，她认为教师的工作是人道的，其目标是崇高的。教师必须让孩子们知道他们唯一的武器是知识。教师可以改变世界。由此可见Hroub对教师这份工作是充满信念感的，故选C项。
4.推理判断题，根据文章第四段中的“Teachers could change the world. (教师可以改变世界)”和第五段中的“teachers are the builders of peace and unity (教师是和平与团结的缔造者)”可知，Hroub认为教师可以改变世界，Pope Francis 认为教师是和平和团结的缔造者。由此可见两人的话语中都表达了他们重视教师的态度，故选A项。
C
During the 2020 Olympics in Tokyo, there was a lot of talk about the environmental efforts taken. Athletes slept on beds made from recycled cardboard. The medals were produced out of old appliances such as smartphones and laptops. Over 90% of Japanese cities, towns and villages participated in the two-year effort to collect recycled materials to produce 5000 medals. Eighty tons of small electrical devices were collected to make this project successful.
With the 2024 Olympics Games underway in Paris, new environmental efforts are coming into play. Observers will sit on chairs made of plastic recycled from local bins. This decision was made due to a lack of unused raw materials to make new seats, so the eco-construction firm Le Pave turned to make the seats out of waste. Around 11,000 seats will be made from recycled materials.
The plastic collection for Paris 2024 has been carried out in the region’s schools, and over five million coloured bottle caps have been recovered. Moreover, 80% of the 100 tons of recycled plastic needed to make the seats come from the yellow bins collections. This is all part of the Paris 2024 “zero waste” strategy to limit single-use plastic usage and encourage a circular economy.
The Olympic Games organizers are planning to make the Paris 2024 Games the greenest Olympic Games yet. They intend to employ a carbon-neutral approach that will lessen the climate impact of the Games by predicting, avoiding, reducing and balancing emissions and encouraging others to get involved. The Summer Games have emitted 3.6 million tons of carbon emissions in previous years. The Paris 2024 Games has set a carbon budget of 1.5 million tons which includes the emissions from construction, transportation and operations of the Games.
These plans are ambitious but are achievable. If Paris 2024 successfully reduces emissions and promotes a circular economy, it might set the standard for future Olympic and Paralympic Games, regardless of where they are held.
28. What were the 2020 Olympics medals made from
A. Raw metal. B. Recycled cardboard.
C. Reused plastic. D. Used electronic devices.
29. What is the purpose of the Paris 2024 “zero waste” strategy
A. To stop carbon emissions. B. To make seats for athletes.
C. To collect coloured bottle caps. D. To restrict single-use plastic usage.
30. What do the underlined words “carbon neutral approach” in paragraph 4 refer to
A. Limitation to single-use plastics. B. Reduction of carbon emissions.
C. Promotion of recycling in school. D. Encouragement of a circular economy.
31. What is the author’s attitude to the plans for the Paris 2024 Games
A. Favorable. B. Intolerant. C. Doubtful. D. Unclear.
【答案】28. D 29. D 30. B 31. A
【解析】
【导语】本文为一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了2024年巴黎奥运会的环保理念和计划。
【28题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第一段“The medals were produced out of old appliances such as smartphones and laptops.(奖牌是由旧电器制作而成的，比如说手机和平板电脑。)”可知，东京奥运会的奖牌是由废旧电器制作的，是由二手的电子设备制作而成的，故选D。
【29题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第三段“This is all part of the Paris 2024 “zero waste” strategy to limit single-use plastic usage and encourage a circular economy.(这都是来自2024巴黎奥运会的“零废弃”策略，其目的是为了限制一次性塑料的使用，并鼓励循环经济。)”可知，“零废弃”策略的目的是为了限制一次性塑料的使用，故选D。
【30题详解】
词句猜测题。根据文章第四段划线短语carbon-neutral approach后的内容“that will lessen the climate impact of the Games by predicting, avoiding, reducing and balancing emissions and encouraging others to get involved.(通过预测、避免、减少和平衡碳排放，并鼓励其他国家参与的方式来减轻奥运会对气候的影响。)”对划线短语carbon-neutral approach的解释可知，这一方法是通过减少碳排放的方式来减轻奥运会对气候的影响，carbon-neutral approach故指的是“减少碳排放”，故选B。
【31题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“These plans are ambitious but are achievable. If Paris 2024 successfully reduces emissions and promotes a circular economy, it might set the standard for future Olympic and Paralympic Games, regardless of where they are held.(这些计划雄心勃勃，但却是可以实现的。如果2024年巴黎奥运会成功地减少了碳排放，促进了循环经济，无论在哪里举行奥运会，它可能就为以后的奥运会和残奥会制定了标准。)”可知，在作者看来2024年巴黎奥运会的这些计划雄心勃勃的，但却是可实现的，而且作者还期待它为以后的奥运会指定标准，故作者对2024巴黎奥运会的这些计划是支持的，故选A。
D
Research on the effects of age on language learning often leads to claims that it’s impossible to learn a language after the age of 18, yet these claims lack scientific evidence. While certain language processing functions peak during childhood, others develop later, with some even experiencing a new growth between the ages of 50 and 75.
The definition of language learning and its goals also play a significant role. If the aim is to participate comfortably in daily social interactions, research suggests that fluency in a new language can be achieved at any age with sufficient study and exposure.
Learning a language at different stages of life comes with advantages and disadvantages. Starting before the age of 10 allows for the potential of acquiring a native-like accent. However, introducing a second language to children late in verbal(言语的)development may pose challenges.
Between the ages of 10 and 18, there is a unique opportunity to intuitively(直觉地)understand grammar and develop a comprehensive and unconscious understanding of a new language’s rules. Language acquisition during this period can also boost confidence and encourage a reflective attitude towards language changes.
Studying an additional language in adulthood involves more translation and a tendency to think in one’s native language first. Language anxiety and hesitation may also arise. However, adulthood offers advantages such as peak communication skills, literary knowledge, and socio-cultural understanding.
Learning a new language at the age of 50 and above may be advantageous in terms of certain mental skills that continue to improve until the mid-to-late 70s. This age group can quickly grasp the basics of a language, although more research is needed to confirm this theory.
In summary, learning a language is a lifelong process. While certain aspects may become more challenging with age, there is no age limit that makes language learning futile. Achieving an intermediate level in a target language can be rewarding, even if some mistakes are made. Starting early can enhance phonology and grammar skills, but continued exposure and usage throughout life are vital for becoming a comfortable speaker. Ultimately, it’s never too late to start or relearn a language.
32. In which situation can one achieve fluency in a new language at any age
A. In grammar class. B. In writing practice.
C. In vocabulary research. D. In everyday communication.
33. Which of the following can we learn about language learning
A. Early learning delays children’s language development.
B. Learning during teenage years helps build up confidence.
C. Learners beyond fifty can gain literary knowledge quickly.
D. Learning in adulthood helps to acquire peak translation skills.
34. What does the underlined word “futile” in Para 7 mean
A. Fruitless. B. Complex. C. Time-consuming. D. Painful.
35. What’s the best title for the text
A. Why Language Learning Has Age Limits
B. Why Age Plays a Vital Role in Language Learning
C. How Language Learning Occurs at Different Life Stages
D. How Learning a Language Changes Depending on Your Age
【答案】32. D 33. B 34. A 35. D
【解析】
【导语】本文为一篇说明文，介绍了学习语言的能力是如何根据年龄变化的。
【32题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第二段“If the aim is to participate comfortably in daily social interactions, research suggests that fluency in a new language can be achieved at any age with sufficient study and exposure.(如果目标是舒适地参与日常社交活动，研究表明，只要有充分的学习和接触，任何年龄的人都可以流利地掌握一门新语言)”可知，在日常交流中，一个人在任何年龄都能流利地掌握一门新语言。故选D项。
【33题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第四段“Between the ages of 10 and 18, there is a unique opportunity to intuitively understand grammar and develop a comprehensive and unconscious understanding of a new language’s rules. Language acquisition during this period can also boost confidence and encourage a reflective attitude towards language changes.(在10到18岁之间，有一个独特的机会直观地理解语法，并对一门新语言的规则形成全面而无意识的理解。在这一时期的语言习得也可以增强信心，并鼓励对语言变化的反思态度)”可知，在青少年时期学习语言有助于建立自信。故选B项。
【34题详解】
词义猜测题。根据文章划线词前“While certain aspects may become more challenging with age, there is no age limit(虽然某些方面可能会随着年龄的增长而变得更具挑战性，但没有年龄限制)”及后文“Achieving an intermediate level in a target language can be rewarding, even if some mistakes are made.(达到目标语言的中级水平是值得的，即使会犯一些错误)”可知，年龄增长虽然对于学习语言更有挑战性，但是这种限制不会使得语言学习不成功。fruitless“没有结果的、不成功的”与划线词为近义词。故选A项。
【35题详解】
主旨大意题。根据文章第一段“Research on the effects of age on language learning often leads to claims that it’s impossible to learn a language after the age of 18, yet these claims lack scientific evidence. While certain language processing functions peak during childhood, others develop later, with some even experiencing a new growth between the ages of 50 and 75.(关于年龄对语言学习的影响的研究经常导致人们声称18岁以后就不可能学习一门语言了，然而这些说法缺乏科学证据。虽然某些语言处理功能在儿童时期达到顶峰，但其他功能的发展较晚，有些人甚至在50至75岁之间经历了新的增长)”及下文可知，本文说明了学习语言的能力是如何根据年龄变化的，D选项“学习语言如何随年龄变化”适合作为最佳标题。故选D项。

【36题详解】
上文“At the end of a long day, you might want to sit in front of the TV and watch a favorite show.(在漫长的一天结束后，你可能想坐在电视机前看一个最喜欢的节目)”说明睡前我们可能会做的具体活动。空处承上启下。C项中的“doing some bedtime activities”和上文“sit in front of the TV and watch a favorite show.”相呼应，“help you sleep better”和下文中的“can tell our body it’s time to sleep”相呼应，说明做一些睡前活动实际上可以帮助你睡得更好。所以，C项“But doing some bedtime activities could actually help you sleep better.（但是做一些睡前活动实际上可以帮助你睡得更好。）”填入空格处，符合语境。故选C。
【37题详解】
上文“If your current habits don’t support good sleep, a bedtime ritual can help you make necessary changes.(如果你目前的习惯不支持良好的睡眠，睡前仪式可以帮助你做出必要的改变)”说明了睡前仪式的作用。空处和前文为递进关系，进一步说明睡眠仪式的作用。A项中的also和前文形成递进关系，“help you reduce anxiety”和前文“can help you make necessary changes”相呼应，说明睡前仪式也可以帮助你减少焦虑。所以，A项“Bedtime rituals can also help you reduce anxiety.（睡前习惯也可以帮助你减少焦虑。）”填入空格处，符合语境。故选A。
【38题详解】
下文“Consider trying several bedtime rituals before settling on a consistent routine. What’s important is figuring out what works for you. Start out with two or three activities according to your needs and preferences.(在养成一个连贯的作息习惯之前，可以考虑尝试几个睡前仪式。重要的是弄清楚什么对你有效。根据你的需求和喜好，从两到三项活动开始)”说明本段主要讲述了根据你的需要和喜好确定一个睡前仪式，即没有一个固定的模式。E项“完美的就寝仪式没有固定的模式。”适合作本段的主旨句，统领全段。故选E。
【39题详解】
上文“If you enjoy exercise and movement, try yoga or gentle stretching. (如果你喜欢锻炼和运动，可以试试瑜伽或轻柔的伸展运动)”以及下文“If classical music calms you, turn on some Bach or Mozart enjoying a bath.(如果古典音乐能让你平静下来，那就打开巴赫或莫扎特的音乐来洗澡)”说明了我们可以选择的睡前活动。空处和前后为并列关系，都是在举例说明我们可以选择什么样的睡眠活动。G项“如果你觉得秩序井然，就为第二天创建一个待办事项列表。”符合语境。故选G。
【40题详解】
上文“Whether your bedtime ritual takes place in bed or somewhere else, make sure your environment is relaxing. Wear comfortable clothes or pajamas, curl up under a cozy blanket. and keep the lights low. (无论你的就寝仪式是在床上还是在其他地方进行，都要确保你的环境是放松的。穿着舒适的衣服或睡衣，蜷缩在舒适的毯子下。并保持灯光昏暗)”说明睡前仪式需要在放松的环境下进行。空处承接上文，说明睡前仪式如果在放松的环境下进行会有助于睡眠。D项“然后到了入睡的时候，你就做好了准备。”符合语境。故选D。

【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了南京中学一所高中学生于周末在养老院做志愿者活动，给老人们带去了欢乐。
【56题详解】
考查非谓语。句意：这家养老院位于住宅区，，有150多名老年人，其中一些人已经90多岁了。分析句子可知，本句的谓语为“has”，设空处与谓语没有并列连词连接，所以空处为非谓语。短语：be located on“位于……”，所以此处用过去分词located，故填located。
【57题详解】
考查非限制性定语从句。句意同上。句中“some of are over 90 years old”为非限制性定语从句，先行词为“150 senior citizens”，在从句中作介词of的宾语，some of sb.“……中的一些人”，所以空处用关系代词whom，故填whom。
【58题详解】
考查时态。句意：尽管这是许多学生第一次参加这样的志愿者活动，但他们渴望与老人们分享各种有趣的话题。分析句子结构，空白处在句子中作谓语，“it was the first time that”为固定句型，主句用was，从句中的谓语动词使用过去完成时。故填had taken。
【59题详解】
考查形容词。句意同上。空处为定语，修饰名词topics，所以此处用形容词。vary“变化”为动词，其形容词形式为various/varied，故填various/varied。
【60题详解】
考查反身代词。句意：句意：午饭后，住在养老院的人和年轻的志愿者用艺术活动自娱自乐。分析句子可知，设空处在句中作宾语，与主语“the residents and the young volunteers ”为同一个身份，指“他们自己”，宾语和主语指同一人时，宾语用反身代词。故填themselves。
【61题详解】
考查介词。句意：16岁的苏说他希望能定期到养老院和与他交朋友的老人们一起度过快乐时光。短语：make friends with sb.“与某人交朋友”，分析句子，“that he made friends ”为定语从句，先行词为“the seniors”，指人，在从句中作介词with的宾语，所以空格处填with，故填with。
【62题详解】
考查定冠词。句意：活动组织者王红说：“我原本担心学生和老人相处不太好，但幸运的是，结果恰恰相反。我可以说，今天的活动对居民和学生的生活都产生了很大的影响。”分析句子可知，空处指“这次活动的组织者”，是特指的，所以此处用定冠词the，故填the。
【63题详解】
考查时态和语态。句意：活动组织者王红说：“我原本担心学生和老人相处不太好，但幸运的是，结果恰恰相反。我可以说，今天的活动对居民和学生的生活都产生了很大的影响。”结合句中“and the elderly wouldn’t get along easily”可知，空处的时态应为一般过去时，表示“作者原本担心”，短语：be concerned that“担心……”，所以空处填was concerned，故填was concerned。
【64题详解】
考查连词。句意：活动组织者王红说：“我原本担心学生和老人相处不太好，但幸运的是，结果恰恰相反。我可以说，今天的活动对居民和学生的生活都产生了很大的影响。”结合句中设空前后内容分析，可知，空后的内容和前文为转折关系。but“但是”表示转折，故填but。
【65题详解】
考查名词复数。句意同上。空处应填名词作宾语；结合下文“of the residents and the students”可知，这里指“学生们和居民们的生活”，所以用复数名词。故填lives。
第三节课文默写(共5小题;每小题1分，满分5分)
66. Today, acupuncture is recognized as a symbol of traditional Chinese culture and has____________________ around the world.(根据句意填空)
【答案】come into widespread use
【解析】
【详解】考查固定短语。句意：今天，针灸被公认为中国传统文化的象征，并在世界各地广泛使用。根据上文“Today, acupuncture is recognized as a symbol of traditional Chinese culture(今天，针灸被公认为中国传统文化的象征)”以及下文“around the world(在世界各地)”可推理出空白处应填表示“广泛使用”含义的表达，可用come into widespread use，根据空白处前面的助动词has可知本句谓语动词使用了现在完成时，空白处填动词的过去分词，故填come into widespread use。
67. One truly unique scenic spot in Canada is the mighty Niagara Falls with water rushing over its edge ____________________ of sights and sounds. (根据句意填空)
【答案】in a splendid display
【解析】
【详解】考查介词短语。句意：加拿大一个真正独特的景点是强大的尼亚加拉瀑布，水从它的边缘奔流而下，呈现出壮丽的景象和声音。分析句子结构可知，空处需要介词短语做状语。in a splendid display of“精彩的展示了……”，符合语境。故填in a splendid display。
68. Despite____________________this technology, its possibilities have been creating much excitement throughout the entire medical community and beyond. (根据句意填空)
【答案】the public argument over
【解析】
【详解】考查形容词和名词。句意：尽管公众对这项技术存在争议，但它的可能性已经在整个医学界内外引起了极大的兴奋。根据Despite和“its possibilities have been creating much excitement throughout the entire medical community and beyond”可知，句子表示“尽管公众对这项技术存在争议，但它的可能性已经在整个医学界内外引起了极大的兴奋”，空格处意为“公众对……的争议”，“公众的”用public，“对……的争议”是the argument over，因此空格处是the public argument over。故填the public argument over。
69. It is this kind of inspiration that____________________knowledge alive and ensures that advances in space exploration and many other fields will continue to be made. (根据句意填空)
【答案】keeps our thirst for
【解析】
【详解】考查动词短语和时态。句意：正是这种灵感使我们保持对知识的渴望，并确保在太空探索和许多其他领域将继续取得进步。根据句意，表示“保持对……的渴望”可用动词短语keep thirst for...表示，作谓语，描述一般性事实用一般现在时态，主语this kind of inspiration(强调句中被强调部分)是不可数名词，谓语动词用单数形式；表示“我们的”，用形容词性物主代词our作定语。故填keeps our thirst for。
70. While AI enthusiasts promise us a bright future____________________, these undoubted benefits also bring concerns and fears. (根据句意填空)
【答案】where intelligent robots will be working to our advantage
【解析】
【详解】考查定语从句。句意：虽然人工智能爱好者向我们承诺了一个光明的未来，智能机器人将为我们服务，但这些毋庸置疑的好处也带来了担忧和恐惧。空处引导定语从句，修饰先行词future，关系词替代先行词在定语从句中作地点状语，所以用关系副词where引导定语从句。根据“these undoubted benefits”可知，定语从句描述AI带来的好处。intelligent robots“智能机器人”，在定语从句中作主语，定语从句中为将来进行时态，表示将来的某一时间点或某一时间段正在发生的事情。work to our advantage“对我们有利”。故填where intelligent robots will be working to our advantage。

第二节(满分25分)
72. 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。
I looked at my father's sugar-crusted hands, his shocked eyes, and I knew that I was breaking his heart. It was the worst time to say anything, to just blurt it out like this while we were cooking and preparing the house for guests—especially because my father was busy doing the one thing that I was about to tell them that I would never do. But I couldn't hold it in any longer, and I needed to say something now, otherwise I would just be delaying the inevitable and probably have an anxiety-caused breakdown in the meantime.
We were standing in the kitchen while my family was scattered around the living room tidying up, pretending not to listen and clearly listening: Soft footsteps approached, and my mother was now with us in the kitchen. “What is this, Beta ” she said. She was shocked; I was ashamed.
“I'm sorry,” I said miserably. “But I can't do it. I'm not good at cooking. Everything I touch comes out wrong，and tastes terrible. Even the simple ladoos I try to make fall apart.
“You have to practice, Beta, my father exploded. “You don't practice enough! All you do is sit in your room, and write in that journal...”
“I want to be a writer.” I cried out what had been reverberating in my mind for the last three years.
My parents were astonished. “The sweet store is your duty, Beta. Your duty to your family. We're counting on you because you are our daughter.” my father spoke as though this was all that needed to be said.
My heart sank.
My father gave me a hard look. “When your grandfather comes over for dinner,” he warned, “don't say a word to him.”
“He's still recovering from his surgery,” my mother added severely.
My father turned back to shaping the ladoos. “We'll discuss this later,” he said abruptly, and the conversation was over.
When the rest of the family came over that evening, I found myself sitting next to my grandfather. Everyone laughed and joked except me. When there was a period of quietness in the conversation, my grandfather said, “Beta, come with me to the kitchen.”
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。
Once we reached the kitchen, he asked me what's wrong.
__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
But my grandfather stopped him with a look, and gently laid a hand on my arm.
__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】Once we reached the kitchen, he asked me what was wrong. I wanted to tell him everything, but didn’t want to disappoint him the way I had disappointed my parents. Furthermore, my mother’s comment about his surgery was on my mind. So I shook my head. At that moment, my father came into the kitchen. My grandfather looked at him, concerned, and then asked the same question. My father froze momentarily and then assured him with a big smile that I was just tired. Then he grabbed my arm to drag me away.
But my grandfather stopped him with a look, and gently laid a hand on my arm. Suddenly, I couldn’t contain my feeling and burst into tears. I looked at him and sobbingly said, “I don’t want to make sweets. I don’t want to run the store.” My grandfather stood quietly for a moment, absorbing this; then he looked at me and said simply, “Then you will not make sweets.” “But what else can she do ” my father said, frustrated. “Well, she’s an excellent storyteller. I imagine she’ll be a writer,” my grandfather said.

Hanan Al Hroub, from Bethlehem in the West Bank, was awarded the Global Teacher Prize at a ceremony in Dubai. Hroub accepted the award “as a win for all teachers in general and Palestinian teachers in particular”.
Hroub became a teacher after her children and husband were shot on their way home from school. “It changed my children’s behavior, personalities and studies,” she said in a video. “I felt that I was alone in getting my children through this. No teacher had helped me get my children back on track.”
With no help from the education system, Hroub decided to teach her children on her own. She started inventing games at home and inviting their neighbors’ children to participate. Gradually, her children’s behavior and grades began to improve. Now she teaches by using playing and learning at school to help children fight violence. “Some children may not directly experience violence in our country. However, they see it on the screens and in social media and that still affects them,” Hroub said.
“I tell all the teachers, whether they are Palestinian or from around the world that ‘Our job is humane and its goals are noble. We must teach our children that their only weapon is knowledge.’ Teachers could change the world.”
Pope Francis announced in a video conference that Hroub had won the award. Francis said that a part of education is to teach children how to play in order to learn the joy of life and that teachers are the builders of peace and unity. “I would like to congratulate Hanan Al Hroub for winning this prize due to the importance that she gave to the role of playing in child’s education,” Francis said.
24. Why did Hanan Al Hroub become a teacher
A. To teach children to keep away from violence.
B. To ease the effect of violence on her children.
C. To promote education level for children.
D. To introduce a new method of education.
25. How does Hroub educate children
A. By learning and creating.
B. By watching and learning.
C. By participating and cooperating.
D. By playing and learning.
26. What is Hroub’s attitude towards her job
A. Objective. B. Disappointed. C. Faithful. D. Cautious.
27. What do the words of Hroub and Pope Francis have in common in the last two paragraphs
A. They both valued teachers.
B. They were both against violence.
C. They both expressed hopes for children.
D. They both showed their feelings about the prize.
C
During the 2020 Olympics in Tokyo, there was a lot of talk about the environmental efforts taken. Athletes slept on beds made from recycled cardboard. The medals were produced out of old appliances such as smartphones and laptops. Over 90% of Japanese cities, towns and villages participated in the two-year effort to collect recycled materials to produce 5000 medals. Eighty tons of small electrical devices were collected to make this project successful.
With the 2024 Olympics Games underway in Paris, new environmental efforts are coming into play. Observers will sit on chairs made of plastic recycled from local bins. This decision was made due to a lack of unused raw materials to make new seats, so the eco-construction firm Le Pave turned to make the seats out of waste. Around 11,000 seats will be made from recycled materials.
The plastic collection for Paris 2024 has been carried out in the region’s schools, and over five million coloured bottle caps have been recovered. Moreover, 80% of the 100 tons of recycled plastic needed to make the seats come from the yellow bins collections. This is all part of the Paris 2024 “zero waste” strategy to limit single-use plastic usage and encourage a circular economy.
The Olympic Games organizers are planning to make the Paris 2024 Games the greenest Olympic Games yet. They intend to employ a carbon-neutral approach that will lessen the climate impact of the Games by predicting, avoiding, reducing and balancing emissions and encouraging others to get involved. The Summer Games have emitted 3.6 million tons of carbon emissions in previous years. The Paris 2024 Games has set a carbon budget of 1.5 million tons which includes the emissions from construction, transportation and operations of the Games.
These plans are ambitious but are achievable. If Paris 2024 successfully reduces emissions and promotes a circular economy, it might set the standard for future Olympic and Paralympic Games, regardless of where they are held.
28. What were the 2020 Olympics medals made from
A Raw metal. B. Recycled cardboard.
C. Reused plastic. D. Used electronic devices.
29. What is the purpose of the Paris 2024 “zero waste” strategy
A. To stop carbon emissions. B. To make seats for athletes.
C. To collect coloured bottle caps. D. To restrict single-use plastic usage.
30. What do the underlined words “carbon neutral approach” in paragraph 4 refer to
A. Limitation to single-use plastics. B. Reduction of carbon emissions.
C. Promotion of recycling in school. D. Encouragement of a circular economy.
31. What is the author’s attitude to the plans for the Paris 2024 Games
A. Favorable. B. Intolerant. C. Doubtful. D. Unclear.
D
Research on the effects of age on language learning often leads to claims that it’s impossible to learn a language after the age of 18, yet these claims lack scientific evidence. While certain language processing functions peak during childhood, others develop later, with some even experiencing a new growth between the ages of 50 and 75.
The definition of language learning and its goals also play a significant role. If the aim is to participate comfortably in daily social interactions, research suggests that fluency in a new language can be achieved at any age with sufficient study and exposure.
Learning a language at different stages of life comes with advantages and disadvantages. Starting before the age of 10 allows for the potential of acquiring a native-like accent. However, introducing a second language to children late in verbal(言语的)development may pose challenges.
Between the ages of 10 and 18, there is a unique opportunity to intuitively(直觉地)understand grammar and develop a comprehensive and unconscious understanding of a new language’s rules. Language acquisition during this period can also boost confidence and encourage a reflective attitude towards language changes.
Studying an additional language in adulthood involves more translation and a tendency to think in one’s native language first. Language anxiety and hesitation may also arise. However, adulthood offers advantages such as peak communication skills, literary knowledge, and socio-cultural understanding.
Learning a new language at the age of 50 and above may be advantageous in terms of certain mental skills that continue to improve until the mid-to-late 70s. This age group can quickly grasp the basics of a language, although more research is needed to confirm this theory.
In summary, learning a language is a lifelong process. While certain aspects may become more challenging with age, there is no age limit that makes language learning futile. Achieving an intermediate level in a target language can be rewarding, even if some mistakes are made. Starting early can enhance phonology and grammar skills, but continued exposure and usage throughout life are vital for becoming a comfortable speaker. Ultimately, it’s never too late to start or relearn a language.
32. In which situation can one achieve fluency in a new language at any age
A. In grammar class. B. In writing practice.
C. In vocabulary research. D. In everyday communication.
33. Which of the following can we learn about language learning
A. Early learning delays children’s language development.
B. Learning during teenage years helps build up confidence.
C. Learners beyond fifty can gain literary knowledge quickly.
D. Learning in adulthood helps to acquire peak translation skills.
34. What does the underlined word “futile” in Para 7 mean
A. Fruitless. B. Complex. C. Time-consuming. D. Painful.
35. What’s the best title for the text
A. Why Language Learning Has Age Limits
B Why Age Plays a Vital Role in Language Learning
C. How Language Learning Occurs at Different Life Stages
D. How Learning a Language Changes Depending on Your Age

72. 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。
I looked at my father's sugar-crusted hands, his shocked eyes, and I knew that I was breaking his heart. It was the worst time to say anything, to just blurt it out like this while we were cooking and preparing the house for guests—especially because my father was busy doing the one thing that I was about to tell them that I would never do. But I couldn't hold it in any longer, and I needed to say something now, otherwise I would just be delaying the inevitable and probably have an anxiety-caused breakdown in the meantime.
We were standing in the kitchen while my family was scattered around the living room tidying up, pretending not to listen and clearly listening: Soft footsteps approached, and my mother was now with us in the kitchen. “What is this, Beta ” she said. She was shocked; I was ashamed.
“I'm sorry” I said miserably. “But I can't do it. I'm not good at cooking. Everything I touch comes out wrong，and tastes terrible. Even the simple ladoos I try to make fall apart.
“You have to practice, Beta, my father exploded. “You don't practice enough! All you do is sit in your room, and write in that journal...”
“I want to be a writer.” I cried out what had been reverberating in my mind for the last three years.
My parents were astonished. “The sweet store is your duty, Beta. Your duty to your family. We're counting on you because you are our daughter.” my father spoke as though this was all that needed to be said.
My heart sank.
My father gave me a hard look. “When your grandfather comes over for dinner,” he warned, “don't say a word to him.”
“He's still recovering from his surgery,” my mother added severely.
My father turned back to shaping the ladoos. “We'll discuss this later,” he said abruptly, and the conversation was over.
When the rest of the family came over that evening, I found myself sitting next to my grandfather. Everyone laughed and joked except me. When there was a period of quietness in the conversation, my grandfather said, “Beta, come with me to the kitchen.”
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。
Once we reached the kitchen, he asked me what's wrong.
__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
But my grandfather stopped him with a look, and gently laid a hand on my arm.
