2023 Hot List: The Best New Restaurants in the World
Place des Fêtes — New York City
This famous wine bar provides a spot with a rare sweet and warm atmosphere. For date night, go to the bar with views of the open kitchen, or fill up the large table in the back with a group and taste the entire 20-item menu. Either way, do not miss the famous mushroom soup.
Le Doyenné — Saint-Vrain, France
Australian chefs James Henry and Shaun Kelly transformed the former stables（马厩）of a 19th-century private estate(财产) into a working farm, restaurant, and guesthouse driven by the principles of regenerative agriculture. More than one hundred varieties of fruits, vegetables, and herbs make their way into Henry’s cooking after being carefully nurtured by Kelly.
Mi Compa Chava — Mexico City
Seafood is a hangover cure in Mexico, and almost everyone eating here is devoted to fixing last night’s damage from drunkenness and getting a head start on creating today’s. On the sidewalk, crowds of locals and tourists alike line up for fisherman Salvador Orozco’s creative takes on Sinaloa and Baja seafood. Anything from the raw half of the menu is a sure bet, though cooked dishes like fish can help fill out a meal.

As night falls on the streets of Shanghai, Mikiko Chen can often be found pacing up and
down through the winding narrow streets of the city hunting for discarded(丢弃的) items.
“I pick up all sorts of things, chairs, wine boxes, bowls and cups. . . it’s like treasure hunting for me, ”she says. The 27-year-old digital marketer is among the first adopters( 采 用 者) of “stooping” in China, a practice that refers to picking up discarded furniture and other goods on the streets for re-use. She says the concept “stooping” was inspired by New Yorkers who often leave unwanted things on the “stoops” —or doorsteps—leading up to the entrances of buildings.
“The main concept of stooping for me is to make the best use of things,” Ms. Chen says. “It can help you to save money, but it’s not just about lowering consumption(消费).” “It’s wasteful to throw away something that’s still usable; it’s better to share it with others who need it.”
Ms. Chen says she was among the first to use the hashtag ( 话 题 标 签 ) stooping on Xiaohongshu. “In the first place, I started with posting items that people no longer used and wanted to throw away or exchange . . . gradually I’m receiving hundreds of messages each day,” she says. Since then, the trend has become increasingly popular.
Ms. Chen says she is “very surprised” the concept has become a hit on social media, as older generations often stigmatize picking up things from the street or using second-hand goods. “People like my mum consider stooping as ‘rubbish picking ’ and ‘scavenging ’ (拾荒),” she says. “She thinks that people will look down on you for doing this.”
For Nan Zheng, an environmentalist and advocate( 拥 护 者 ), stooping is more than the physical act of picking up things from the streets. He created an app called “Grecycle” where people can give away or take unwanted items for free. “I think we can let more people know about the concept of stooping as an interesting and fun thing to do,” Mr. Nan says. “Then,
gradually we can let people know this can also be about charity and helping others.” 24. What can we learn about Mikiko Chen from paragraph 2 and 3
A. She is hunting for costly treasures.
B. She just wants to reduce consumption.
C. She got inspiration from herself.
D. She intends to make the most of throwaway items.
25. Why did Mikiko Chen use the hashtag stooping on Xiaohongshu
A. To collect all kinds of messages.
B. To become a household name on social media.
C. To share something still usable with others.
D. To throw away unwanted things on the “stoops” .
26. What does the underlined part in paragraph 5 probably mean
A. The older are ashamed of stooping.
B. The older are skilled at stooping.
C. The older are supportive of stooping.
D. The older are addicted to stooping
27. What is Nan Zheng’s true intention of creating the app “Grecycle”
A. Recycling discarded things from the streets.

Recently, the “city walk” has been gaining steam among residents and tourists around China. On social platform Xiaohongshu, data shows that the number of city walk-related topic posts has increased by 700 percent over the past three months, and the total number of interactions has increased by more than 600 percent.
A city walk is a form of urban tourism originating(起源于) in the UK. Unlike traditional sightseeing, which aims to hit famous attractions and commercial center, usually by vehicles with tight schedules(日程安排), city walk is about “roaming” around a city on foot, taking in the atmosphere and finding unusual things that even a resident of the city might not have noticed before. Such walks generally avoid famous scenic spots and shopping centers, and take you to places where you can have real interactions with the local people, eat at small but authentic(正 宗的) restaurants, and gain a deeper understanding of the history and culture of the city.
City walkers are a cast of people who possess intense curiosity. They are eager to engage with the city they are visiting or live in their own way. By “roaming” on foot, city walkers can better feel the texture(神韵) and listen to the breath of a place. They seek pleasure more through connection than consumption, which shows a deep cultural curiosity. For example, in Chongqing, if you don’t take a walk, you can hardly experience the unique geographical charm of the mountainous city. Be it the hutong in Beijing or the Chinese parasol tree district in Shanghai; city walks allow people to see the scenery apart from the scene and uncover hidden knowledge.
The attraction of a city walk lies in the young generation’s changing attitude toward life — pursuing quality leisure time while being occupied with demanding workloads and limited time for exploration. While roaming along the road, you can entirely focus on yourself and listen to your inner voice and care for what you feel, which is a way to love yourself and benefit your mental health. Just like Oscar Wilde once said, “To love oneself is the beginning of a lifelong
”
romance.
28. What do the underlined words “gaining steam” in paragraph one probably mean A. Raising concerns. B. Getting outdated.
C. Causing trouble. D. Receiving popularity.
29. How does the city walk differ from traditional sightseeing
A. It pursues economical tourism.
B. It is usually well-organized and scheduled.
C. It helps promote the authentic food of the destination.
D. It focuses on feeling the local culture by connecting the city.
30. What do we know about city walkers
A. They are fond of buying souvenirs.
B. They tend to walk as much as possible.
C. They have strong curiosity about the local culture.
D. They prefer the city landscape to the natural scenery.
31. What is the last paragraph mainly about
A. Why city walk changes people’s lifestyle.
B. Why the young fall in love with a city walk.
C. How popular the city walk is among citizens.
D. What young people usually do during a city walk.
D

She was born into a family of jingju performers and has had 10 years of stage experience, “Innovation is good, but we must also carry on the basic elements ofjingju,” another young performer Deng said.

Basketball is a team sport, and a good pass is very important. The pass is the action of moving the ball to create scoring opportunities. A successful pass calls for self-sacrifice (自我牺 牲) for the greater good of the team. 36 The following are some kinds of it.
The chest pass is a quick and accurate pass from the chest of the passer to the receiver. 37 You should extend your arms in a quick movement to pass the ball with palms (手掌) facing outwards and thumbs facing the player you pass to. This is called follow-through.
38 It is relatively easy to steal (截断), but it is an effective way of starting a fast break. Place your hands on both sides of the ball and bring the ball behind your head. Use your upper body strength to make the pass and follow-through.
In a bounce (弹跳) pass, the ball is bounced from the floor before reaching the receiver of the pass. The ball should bounce from that spot to arrive at your receiver above the knee and below the chest. 39
A baseball pass is best used for long distance passes. 40 It is especially useful during fast breaks. Bring the ball to your ear. The ball should go to your back ear with your passing hand behind it and the other under the ball. Throw the ball with an overhand arm push.
Practice these passes and you are sure to become an offensive threat on the court. A. Power comes from the legs.
B. It sacrifices(牺牲) accuracy because of the distance.
C. Passing also helps strengthen the spirit of your team.
D. In other words, the ball should arrive at the receiver’s waist.
E. It is the most effective pass and fastest way to move the ball.
F. An overhead pass is a pass thrown with both hands over your head.

A Spectacular(精彩的) New Year's Eve Gala Lit Up Our School!
第二节（满分 25 分）
阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
I found the kitten sitting on the front step of our house. He was black and white and looked quite weak. Where did he come from I noticed he had no collar(颈圈) around his neck. Who would be so irresponsible
I went inside and opened a can of fish. After I placed the can in the doorway, the kitten hungrily lapped it up (舔) and then walked right inside the house. Later, after jumping onto a bunch of pillows(枕头) on the couch, he began to groom(梳理) his hair.
I bet his last owners didn’t love him at all! I thought. If someone can’t take care of their kitten, they deserve to lose him! Our family never owned pets, but I had always wanted one. It’s a good thing I found that kitten and took him in. Thank goodness he found me!
The kitten kept meowing(喵喵叫) quite a lot. And then, it started trying to bite my hand.
“Hey, kitten! I’m not food!” I said. But the kitten tried again to bite my finger. I knew I had to get him some proper cat food. “You stay put(保持不动), kitten!” I told him. “I’m going to get you food!” Then I grabbed my keys and headed out to the pet store nearest to our house.
On my way to the store, I spotted a sign on the telephone pole:
LOST KITTEN-Black and White, very friendly. If you find him, please call us.
“If you were so worried about your kitten,” I thought, “maybe you should have taken better care of him!”
When I walked into the pet store, I found that the place was packed with kids handing out flyers( 小传单) about the same cat to customers inside. In the back of the store, I saw a boy under 10 years old, crying in his wheelchair. “I can’t believe I lost my kitten!” he said to his parents.
注意：1. 续写词数应为 150 左右。

读后续写
One possible version
I looked at the flyers on the wall carefully this time -it was definitely the cat I had back at home! Then the truth of the situation hit me -I had stolen a little boy's cat! I tried to justify why I should keep the kitten by convincing myself the owners deserved to lose him. Now I saw that it was all a big mistake. I approached the little boy in the wheelchair. He blew his nose and looked up at me."I have your kitten,” I told him. "I'm sorry. I just found him and fed him. He's at my house."
The little boy began to cry with laughter. He held his arms out and gave me a big hug. "Thank you so much! I was just about to put a new collar on him when he ran out the door. I couldn't chase him because of my legs ...I then ran home to get the kitten and reunited the owner and his pet finally. I once thought for sure the kitten's owners deserved to lose him; yet in the end, I was the one who didn't deserve to keep the kitten.
