However, this is not true for English speakers in Cameroon. To know why things are different in this African country, we need to go back one hundred years.In 1919, Kamerun (the name of Cameroon at the time) was cut into two parts: one belonged to France, and the other belonged to the UK. In 1960, the French Cameroon became the Republic of Cameroun, and the UK’s part joined it in 1961. The new country changed its name to the Federal Republic of Cameroon. Although both French and English are Cameroon’s official languages, only around 20% of its people speak English. Also, the government has been in French speakers’ hands since the two parts became one country.For a long time, Cameroon’s English speakers have felt they are not welcome in their own country. For example, it is very difficult for them to find jobs in the government, and they are often asked to speak French in business and at official events. They have become angry at the government and decided to fight for themselves. Since 2016, the English speakers have tried to build their own country. They said in a public meeting in October 2017, that they were not part of Cameroon any more and they were a new country, “Ambazonia”. When the police tried to stop the meeting, at least eight people were killed.28. Which map is most likely the map of Cameroon in 1962 A. B. C. D.29. What can we learn about Cameroon A. It’s a small country in America. B. Ambazonia is its another name.C. French is used more in this country. D. Most people there speak English.30.

B 29. C 30. B【解析】【导语】本文主要通过喀麦隆的相关历史来告诉我们当时语言和权力的关系。【28题详解】推理判断题。根据“In 1960, the French Cameroon became the Republic of Cameroun, and the UK’s part joined it in 1961. The new country changed its name to the Federal Republic of Cameroon.”可知,1961年后,喀麦隆改名为喀麦隆联邦共和国。故选B。【29题详解】细节理解题。根据“Although both French and English are Cameroon’s official languages, only around 20% of its people speak English. Also, the government has been in French speakers’ hands since the two parts became one country.”可知,法语在喀麦隆使用得更多。故选C。【30题详解】主旨大意题。通读文章可知,本文主要通过喀麦隆的相关历史来告诉我们当时语言和权力的关系,在喀麦隆讲英语的人掌握的权力很小。故选B。CThe bell for lunch rang at Glendale Primary School. However, instead of moving to the dining hall like all the other children did, Jonah, a new student at the school, went to the library. Other than the noise of the air-conditioner, the library was quiet and not a single student could be seen in sight. Far in a corner, he saw Mrs Lim, the librarian, who was too busy shelving some books to pay any attention to him. The library was near to the dining hall. Jonah could hear children laughing and chatting. He wished he was outside playing with some friends but he told himself not to think about that.Suddenly, Jonah heard a sound in the corner. He looked around and saw a pair of eyes looking at him from behind the bookshelves. Jonah turned back, eyes as wide as saucers (茶碟). “Oh dear!” he whispered. He peeked (窥视) over his shoulder again and saw a smaller boy walking towards him.The boy pulled out the chair next to Jonah and sat down. “I’m Henry. Why are you reading here when you could be playing with your friends instead ” asked he.“Uh ...” Jonah looked around the library, avoiding Henry’s gaze (注视). He did not want Henry to know the real reason why he was in the library. What would Henry think of him if he knew Jonah did not have any friends It would make Jonah feel more uncomfortable.As Jonah turned the page, he realized Henry was still sitting there, watching him steadily.“I know how you feel. Just say hello to someone today,” Henry encouraged Jonah. “I’m sure they’ll react. Once you’ve made the first move, it just gets easier.”Jonah thanked him for the advice before making his way out of the library. In the hallway outside the library, a boy from Jonah’s class was crouched on the floor, picking up pens and pencils that had dropped out of his pencil case. Jonah remembered what Henry had advised him to do.“Hello, I’m Jonah. Let me help you,” he offered.The boy looked up at him. “Thank you! My name is Ruben.”Victory at last, Jonah thought, feeling proud of himself.31. How did Jonah feel when Henry started talking to him A. Bored. B. Nervous. C. Excited. D. Curious.32. Why was Jonah proud of himself at last A. He never doubted or forgot Henry’s advice.B. He did something good by helping a classmate.C. He met a classmate who was in the same situation.D.

B 32. D 33. C【解析】【导语】本文主要讲述了Jonah由于没有朋友而跑到图书馆,最终在Henry的帮助下,鼓起勇气和同学一起交流。【31题详解】推理判断题。根据“Jonah looked around the library, avoiding Henry’s gaze (注视).”可知,Jonah避开了Henry的注视,是因为紧张,故选B。【32题详解】推理判断题。根据“Victory at last, Jonah thought, feeling proud of himself.”可知,Jonah终于鼓起勇气和同学讲话,他为自己感到自豪,故选D。【33题详解】推理判断题。根据“He wished he was outside playing with some friends but he told himself not to think about that.”以及“What would Henry think of him if he knew Jonah did not have any friends ”可推知,Jonah午饭时去了图书馆是因为他没有朋友,故选C。DA company called OpenAI has recently announced a new version (版本) of its AI artist, DALL-E 2. Given just a short sentence describing a picture, the tool can create different pictures in many different styles.The name “DALL-E” mixes the name of the robot in the movie WALL-E, and the name of the famous Spanish artist Salvador Dalí. He painted amazing, but impossible pictures. Like Dalí, DALL-E 2 can create pictures that are unbelievable, for example, Teddy bears doing crazy experiments as scientists.OpenAI has already changed the world once with its AI writing tool, GPT-3. GPT-3 was trained on a great deal of writing in many different styles. When it was released (发布) in 2020, it surprised people by quickly creating complete, well-written articles in different styles. It is so powerful that OpenAI has tried to be prudent when it comes to how it allows people to use the tool, to make sure that it isn’t used for harmful purposes.DALL-E actually grew out of an effort to apply (应用) GPT-3 to pictures. OpenAI released the first version of DALL-E in 2021. DALL-E 2 is even more powerful. DALL-E 2 has been trained on huge numbers of pictures with matching descriptions, which means it “knows” a lot about how different things look, even when they’re shown in different styles, such as a photo, a painting or even a cartoon.The user can select an area of an image (图像) and ask DALL-E 2 to put something into the picture, or take it out. Some artists are worried that it will take their place if a computer system can create such high-quality pictures so easily. OpenAI says the tool will allow artists to be creative in new ways.To make sure the tool isn’t misused, OpenAI already has strict rules about the types of pictures that can be created with DALL-E. One of those rules prevents DALL-E from creating realistic pictures of actual (真实的) people. By now, the company hasn’t released DALL-E 2. Instead, it is allowing a small number of people to work with the tool to learn more about what works well, and to discover possible problems.34. The name “DALL-E” comes from __________.A. a film and a robot B. a toy and a robotC. an artist and a robot D. a company and a movie35. What does the underlined word “prudent” in Paragraph 3 probably mean A. Careful. B. Confident. C. Patient. D. Modest.36. The most suitable place for the sentence “Does DALL-E 2 have anything new ” is __________.A. at the beginning of Paragraph 3 B. at the beginning of Paragraph 4C. at the beginning of Paragraph 5 D. at the beginning of Paragraph 637. What can be a suitable title for the text A. How DALL-E 2 Makes Use of GPT-3 B. Why OpenAI Develops Its DALL-E 2C. DALL-E 2 Helps Offer Artists New Jobs D. From Words, DALL-E 2 Creates Pictures【答案】34. C 35. A 36. C 37. D【解析】【导语】本文主要介绍了OpenAI公司最近宣布了其人工智能艺术家DALL-E 2的新版本,只需一句描述图片的短句,该工具就可以创建多种不同风格的不同图片。【34题详解】细节理解题。根据“The name ‘DALL-E’ mixes the name of the robot in the movie WALL-E, and the name of the famous Spanish artist Salvador Dalí.”可知这个名字混合了电影《WALL-E》中机器人名字和西班牙著名艺术家萨尔瓦多·达利的名字。故选C。【35题详解】词义猜测题。根据“It is so powerful that OpenAI has tried to be prudent when it comes to how it allows people to use the tool, to make sure that it isn’t used for harmful purposes.”可知它是如此强大,以至于OpenAI在如何允许人们使用该工具时试图保持谨慎,以确保它不会被用于有害目的,故此处划线部分和careful意义相近。故选A。【36题详解】推理判断题。根据“The user can select an area of an image (图像) and ask DALL-E 2 to put something into the picture, or take it out...OpenAI says the tool will allow artists to be creative in new ways.”可知用户可以选择图像的一个区域,并要求DALL-E 2将一些东西放入图片中,或将其取出,该工具将允许艺术家以新的方式进行创作,这是DALL-E 2的新应用,故“DALL-E 2有什么新东西吗”放在第五段的开头。故选C。【37题详解】最佳标题题。本文主要介绍了OpenAI公司最近宣布了其人工智能艺术家DALL-E 2的新版本,只需一句描述图片的短句,该工具就可以创建多种不同风格的不同图片,以选项D“从文字,DALL-E 2创造图片”为标题最合适。故选D。第II卷 (主观题共50分)四、词汇运用 (本大题共8小题,每小题1分,共8分)(A) 根据句意和汉语注释,在答题卡对应题号的横线上,写出单词的正确形式。38.

Cindy is considering _________ (change) a job. She can’t learn much from her job now.【答案】changing【解析】【详解】句意:Cindy正在考虑换一份工作。她现在不能从工作中学到什么。change“改变”,consider doing sth.“考虑做某事”。故填changing。53.

Over the years, these statues have gone through earthquakes, floods and wars. Now in the 21st century, however, they are facing an even bigger problem: tourism. Too many tourists go to visit those grottoes every year and this certainly does harm to the grotto statues. How Over many centuries, these grotto statues slowly corrode(侵蚀)because of the acidic content (酸性物含量)of air, water and so on. But when they are open to the public, the corrosion process speeds up.According to a study, the carbon dioxide that visitors breathe out has made the air more acidic. Also, visitors bring in microorganisms(微生物). Even their body heat can increase the grottoes’ temperature.Bad behaviour can cause harm to the grotto statues as well. Too many visitors touch the grotto statues and cause their surfaces to change colour.When we visit the grottoes, we can often see a sign saying, “No Flash!”or “No Photos!” This is because the strong light can be bad for the statues, especially those with colour. The light can easily make them lose colour.To protect those ancient cultural treasures, recently China has asked the workers who take care of those grottoes not to allow too many visitors to come every day. And to keep a balance between protecting relies and educating the public, some grotto sites have also created their own digital(数字的)museums.Title: Grotto Statues Are in ___54___Problems The grottoes corrode ___55___ when they are open to the public. →The carbon dioxide that visitors breathe out, the microorganisms visitors bring in and visitors’ body heat make the grotto environment more acidic. →Tourists behave badly. ●They touch the grotto statues with their hands. ●The strong light of cameras makes the grotto statues lose colour easily.___56___ →Control the ___57___ of daily visitors →___58___ tourists with online tours in digital museums.【答案】54. Danger55. faster 56. Actions57. number 58. Provide【解析】【导语】本文介绍了龙门石窟所面临的问题以及采取的行动。【54题详解】根据“Too many tourists go to visit those grottoes every year and this certainly does harm to the grotto statues. How ”可知每年都有太多的游客去参观这些石窟,这肯定会对石窟造像造成伤害,所以石窟雕像处于危险中,in danger符合,首字母大写。故填Danger。【55题详解】根据“But when they are open to the public, the corrosion process speeds up.”可知石窟向公众开放时腐蚀得更快,faster“更快”,副词修饰动词,故填faster。【56题详解】根据“To protect those ancient cultural treasures, recently China has asked the workers who take care of those grottoes not to allow too many visitors to come every day. And to keep a balance between protecting relies and educating the public, some grotto sites have also created their own digital(数字的)museums.”可知这些都是为了保护这些古老的文化瑰宝所采取的行动,此处应填名词action的复数,作为标题首字母要大写,故填Actions。【57题详解】根据“To protect those ancient cultural treasures, recently China has asked the workers who take care of those grottoes not to allow too many visitors to come every day.”可知此处是控制日访问量,应用名词number,the number of“……的数量”,故填number。【58题详解】根据“And to keep a balance between protecting relies and educating the public, some grotto sites have also created their own digital(数字的)museums.”可知为了游客提供数字化博物馆的在线参观服务,provide“提供”,动词,位于句首首字母大写,故填Provide。59. 神舟十五号以大约每秒7.9千米的速度飞行。Shenzhou-15 moves __________________ about 7.9 kilometres per second.【答案】at the speed of##at a speed of【解析】【详解】分析中英文句子可知,空格处缺少“以……速度”的英文表达,介词短语at a speed of“以……的速度”符合句意,此处也可特指“神舟十五号的飞行速度”,可用定冠词the。故填at the speed of/at a speed of。60. 安全无小事。我们必须防范身边的危险。Safety matters a lot. We must __________________ around us.【答案】guard against danger【解析】【详解】防范:guard against,情态动词后加动词原形;危险:danger,不可数名词。故填guard against danger。61. 我认为电视剧《狂飙》非常值得一看。I think the drama series The Knockout __________________.【答案】is well worth watching【解析】【详解】很值得做某事:be well worth doing sth;观看:watch;句子时态是一般现在时,主语为单数,be动词应用is。故填is well worth watching。62. 自从彼得离开祖国以来,思乡之情总是萦绕在他心头。Since Peter left his country, homesickness __________________ all the time.【答案】has been on his mind【解析】【详解】be on one’s mind“萦绕在某人心头”;根据语境可知,此处时态为现在完成时,主语homesickness不可数,所以用has done结构。故填has been on his mind。63. 雪莉真粗心,把我的手提包错当成她的了。Shirley was so careless __________________.【答案】that she mistook my handbag for hers【解析】【详解】分析中英文句子可知,空格处缺少“把我的手提包错当成她的了”的英文表达。so...that...“如此……以至于……”,引导结果状语从句;she“她”;mistake sth for“把某事误认为”,句子是一般过去时,动词用过去式;my handbag“我的手提包”;名词性物主代词hers“她的”指代her handbag。故填that she mistook my handbag for hers。64. 凯特想知道她要费多大劲才能解决这个问题。Kate wonders __________________ the problem.【答案】how much difficulty she will have solving##how much trouble she will have solving【解析】【详解】句子是宾语从句,用how much引导宾语从句,修饰不可数名词difficulty/trouble;从句用陈述语序,且是一般将来时will do,主语是she,谓语是will have;have difficulty/trouble doing sth.“做某事有困难”,解决:solve。故填how much difficulty/trouble she will have solving。八、书面表达(本大题共20分)65. 劳动教育(Labour Education)是青少年全面发展的重要组成部分,已被纳入中小学国家课程方案。为此你校英语俱乐部正在开展征文活动,要求谈谈你对劳动教育的看法。你草拟了写作流程图,请根据下图,结合你自身的劳动经历,用英语写一篇短文参加活动。注意事项:1. 短文须根据流程图自拟,要求语句通顺、意思连贯、符合题意;2. 流程图中括号部分为非限定性内容,仅供参考;3. 词数在100个左右,短文首尾给出,不计入总词数;4. 文章中不得使用真实的个人及学校信息。In my opinion, labour education is very necessary and it’s good for students’ development.________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________I believe we can be better ourselves by taking labor education.【答案】例文In my opinion, labour education is very necessary and it’s good for students’ development.I often do housework at home, such as doing the dishes and tidying up my room.

To know why things are different in this African country, we need to go back one hundred years.In 1919, Kamerun (the name of Cameroon at the time) was cut into two parts: one belonged to France, and the other belonged to the UK. In 1960, the French Cameroon became the Republic of Cameroun, and the UK’s part joined it in 1961. The new country changed its name to the Federal Republic of Cameroon. Although both French and English are Cameroon’s official languages, only around 20% of its people speak English. Also, the government has been in French speakers’ hands since the two parts became one country.For a long time, Cameroon’s English speakers have felt they are not welcome in their own country. For example, it is very difficult for them to find jobs in the government, and they are often asked to speak French in business and at official events. They have become angry at the government and decided to fight for themselves. Since 2016, the English speakers have tried to build their own country. They said in a public meeting in October 2017, that they were not part of Cameroon any more and they were a new country, “Ambazonia”. When the police tried to stop the meeting, at least eight people were killed.28. Which map is most likely the map of Cameroon in 1962 A. B. C. D.29. What can we learn about Cameroon A. It’s a small country in America. B. Ambazonia is its another name.C. French is used more in this country. D. Most people there speak English.30 The writer mainly wants to tell us __________.A. how the two parts of Cameroon became one countryB. why English speakers in Cameroon have less powerC. how English speakers in Cameroon fight for themselvesD. why only 20% of the people in Cameroon speak EnglishCThe bell for lunch rang at Glendale Primary School. However, instead of moving to the dining hall like all the other children did, Jonah, a new student at the school, went to the library. Other than the noise of the air-conditioner, the library was quiet and not a single student could be seen in sight. Far in a corner, he saw Mrs Lim, the librarian, who was too busy shelving some books to pay any attention to him. The library was near to the dining hall. Jonah could hear children laughing and chatting. He wished he was outside playing with some friends but he told himself not to think about that.Suddenly, Jonah heard a sound in the corner. He looked around and saw a pair of eyes looking at him from behind the bookshelves. Jonah turned back, eyes as wide as saucers (茶碟). “Oh dear!” he whispered. He peeked (窥视) over his shoulder again and saw a smaller boy walking towards him.The boy pulled out the chair next to Jonah and sat down. “I’m Henry. Why are you reading here when you could be playing with your friends instead ” asked he.“Uh ...” Jonah looked around the library, avoiding Henry’s gaze (注视). He did not want Henry to know the real reason why he was in the library. What would Henry think of him if he knew Jonah did not have any friends It would make Jonah feel more uncomfortable.As Jonah turned the page, he realized Henry was still sitting there, watching him steadily.“I know how you feel. Just say hello to someone today,” Henry encouraged Jonah. “I’m sure they’ll react. Once you’ve made the first move, it just gets easier.”Jonah thanked him for the advice before making his way out of the library. In the hallway outside the library, a boy from Jonah’s class was crouched on the floor, picking up pens and pencils that had dropped out of his pencil case. Jonah remembered what Henry had advised him to do.“Hello, I’m Jonah. Let me help you,” he offered.The boy looked up at him. “Thank you! My name is Ruben.”Victory at last, Jonah thought, feeling proud of himself.31. How did Jonah feel when Henry started talking to him A. Bored. B. Nervous. C. Excited. D. Curious.32. Why was Jonah proud of himself at last A. He never doubted or forgot Henry’s advice.B. He did something good by helping a classmate.C. He met a classmate who was in the same situation.D. He managed to start a conversation with a classmate.33. We can infer from that Jonah went to the library at lunchtime __________.A. because he wanted to find somewhere quietB. because he didn’t like the food in the dining hallC. because he wanted to hide the fact that he had no friendD. because he wanted to find someone to help him with his problemDA company called OpenAI has recently announced a new version (版本) of its AI artist, DALL-E 2. Given just a short sentence describing a picture, the tool can create different pictures in many different styles.The name “DALL-E” mixes the name of the robot in the movie WALL-E, and the name of the famous Spanish artist Salvador Dalí. He painted amazing, but impossible pictures. Like Dalí, DALL-E 2 can create pictures that are unbelievable, for example, Teddy bears doing crazy experiments as scientists.OpenAI has already changed the world once with its AI writing tool, GPT-3. GPT-3 was trained on a great deal of writing in many different styles. When it was released (发布) in 2020, it surprised people by quickly creating complete, well-written articles in different styles. It is so powerful that OpenAI has tried to be prudent when it comes to how it allows people to use the tool, to make sure that it isn’t used for harmful purposes.DALL-E actually grew out of an effort to apply (应用) GPT-3 to pictures. OpenAI released the first version of DALL-E in 2021. DALL-E 2 is even more powerful. DALL-E 2 has been trained on huge numbers of pictures with matching descriptions, which means it “knows” a lot about how different things look, even when they’re shown in different styles, such as a photo, a painting or even a cartoon.The user can select an area of an image (图像) and ask DALL-E 2 to put something into the picture, or take it out. Some artists are worried that it will take their place if a computer system can create such high-quality pictures so easily. OpenAI says the tool will allow artists to be creative in new ways.To make sure the tool isn’t misused, OpenAI already has strict rules about the types of pictures that can be created with DALL-E. One of those rules prevents DALL-E from creating realistic pictures of actual (真实的) people. By now, the company hasn’t released DALL-E 2. Instead, it is allowing a small number of people to work with the tool to learn more about what works well, and to discover possible problems.34. The name “DALL-E” comes from __________.A. a film and a robot B. a toy and a robotC. an artist and a robot D. a company and a movie35. What does the underlined word “prudent” in Paragraph 3 probably mean A. Careful. B. Confident. C. Patient. D. Modest.36. The most suitable place for the sentence “Does DALL-E 2 have anything new ” is __________.A. at the beginning of Paragraph 3 B. at the beginning of Paragraph 4C. at the beginning of Paragraph 5 D. at the beginning of Paragraph 637. What can be a suitable title for the text A. How DALL-E 2 Makes Use of GPT-3 B. Why OpenAI Develops Its DALL-E 2C. DALL-E 2 Helps Offer Artists New Jobs D. From Words, DALL-E 2 Creates Pictures第II卷 (主观题共50分)四、词汇运用 (本大题共8小题,每小题1分,共8分)(A) 根据句意和汉语注释,在答题卡对应题号的横线上,写出单词的正确形式。38.
