二、阅读理解
The 2022 World Internet Conference closed on November 11, 2022 in Wuzhen, Zhejiang Province. There were a lot of cool inventions shown there. Let’s have a look at some of them.
A Smart Helmet
When delivery people send food around, they often use their mobile phones while riding. It’s very dangerous. To make them safer, a company has created a new helmet. It connects with the mobile phone and can “talk”. It can tell delivery people new orders and where the customers are. Delivery people can also take orders and answer messages by talking to the helmet. If the wearer has an accident, the helmet can make a call for help right away.
Type with Eyes
Many disabled people can’t move their hands. They find it hard to type on a computer. A company has developed eye-controlling technology. By looking at the screen and moving their eyes, people can type words easily.
A Business Card A Computer!
A computer which was as big as a business card caught people’s eyes. It’s called Raspberry Pi. It’s one of the world’s smallest computers. Although it only costs a few hundred yuan, it has a memory of 8G. It is designed for learning computer programming. It can do a lot of difficult calculations. You can also use it to create your computer games.
Magic Mirror for Health
Scan your face, and then the software will know a lot about your health. This is what Magic Mirror can do. It’s a smart health check system. You don’t need to wear any devices. Just stand in front of it for 30 seconds, and it will know your heart conditions, blood pressure and the risks of some diseases.
21．Which is true about the smart helmet
A．It can help delivery people ride slowly

23．Magic Mirror can tell people some information EXCEPT _________.

I live in Xizhou in Yunnan Province, on the historic Tea Horse Road. I have to admit that when I first heard that Paul Salopek was going to walk the entire globe on his own two feet, I was blown away. I couldn’t imagine that there could be such an unusual person in the world.
Last May, I met Paul. He told me that it was his first time in China. He talked to me with great excitement about the history, migrations, and discoveries in my region of China. He spoke of the Shu-Yandu Dao (the Southern Silk Road), the travels of the 17th-century Chinese explorer Xu Xiake, the Tea Horse Road and the early 20th-century American botanist Joseph Rock. He also talked of Xuanzang. Paul considered many of them heroes and in a sense Chinese pioneers of slow journalism.
I decided to accompany Paul on his walk toward Yunnan. On September 28, 2021, we set out. Our days were simple: walk, eat, sleep, and repeat. We woke up at sunrise, set off in high spirits, and rested at sunset, dragging ourselves into exhausted sleep.
We met many people on the road. Some were curious, surrounding us and watching us; some gave us directions; some invited us into their home to take a rest; some spoke of the charm of their hometown. We met many beautiful souls, simple souls and warm souls. We were walking with our minds.
Together, we were impressed by the biodiversity of the Gaoligong Mountains. As I walked on ancient paths through mountains, I seemed to hear the antique voices of past travelers urging me to be careful on the road.
Looking back on the more than 200 miles I walked with Paul, I came to a realization. Walking for its own sake, while healthy and admirable, is only a small part of the benefit of moving with our feet. A deeper reward is rediscovering the world around us, shortening the distance between each other, and sharing each other’s cultures.
24．How did the writer first respond to Paul’s travel plan
A．Scared. B．Puzzled.
C．Disappointed. D．Surprised.
25．What can we learn about Paul Salopek from paragraph 2
A．He was a western journalist. B．He had a knowledge of China.
C．He came to China several times. D．He was Joseph Rock’s acquaintance.
26．What does paragraph 4 tell us about the writer and Paul
A．They honored the ancestors. B．They set off in high spirits.
C．They satisfied the locals’ curiosity. D．They built bonds with people.
27．What is the main purpose of the writer’s writing the text
A．To share and reflect on a journey. B．To suggest a new way of travel.
C．To advocate protection of biodiversity. D．To introduce and promote Chinese culture.
There is one language that is used in every country in the world. The people who use it are young and old, short and tall, thin and fat. It is everybody’s second language. It is easy to understand, although you can’t hear it. It is sign language.
When you wave to a friend who is across the street, you are using sign language. When you smile at someone, you’re saying, “I want to be friendly”, but you are not using speech. You are using sign language. When you raise your hand in class, you are saying, “Please ask me, I think I know the correct answer.”
Babies who can’t talk can point at things. They are using sign language. A policeman who wants to stop traffic holds up his hands, he is using sign language.
Many years ago, the French priest, Charles Michel de Epee, became interested in education for deaf people. He invented a finger alphabet. It is still in use. People can make the sign for letters and spell words with their hands. And the deaf people can read and understand them. Soon there were schools for the deaf in many countries. The only university for the deaf is Gallaudet College in Washington, D．C．
Today, in the United States, there are special TV news programs for deaf people. The newsreader tells the news in sign language. At the same time, the words appear on the TV screen.
The actors in the Theatre of Deaf don’t spell every word. Sometimes they use hand signs. When they put two hands together, it means sandwich. They make a roof with their hands when they want to show a house. One finger in front of an actor’s mouth can mean quiet. You can talk to people who are behind windows that are closed. And when you go swimming with your friends, you can have conversations under the water.
How many hand signs do you use every day
28．Which of the following about sign language is true
A．It is a special language used in many countries in the world.
B．It is a way to express one’s ideas without words.
C．It is only used by the deaf.
D．It can be heard.
29．If you want to express the idea “Please ask me, I think I know the correct answer”, what will you do
A．Raise your hand. B．Put one hand onto the other.
C．Smile to the person. D．Make a roof with your hands.
30．What may be concluded from this passage
A．There are schools, colleges and universities for the deaf in the USA．
B．The French priest Charles invented sign language.
C．Even babies are using sign language.
D．Sign language is used every day.
31．What’s the best title for this passage
A．How to Use Sign Language. B．A Famous Priest in France.
C．An Introduction to Sign Language. D．The Importance of Sign Language.
Whether you consider yourself a foodie or not, food is part of your daily routine. Also, food has a way of bringing people together. It is the focus of celebrations. George Bernard Shaw said it well: “There is no love sincerer than the love of food.”
Many of us have traveled and tasted the world’s cuisine while watching Anthony Bourdain’s No Reservations or Parts Unknown or the energetic Peter Maneas in his show My Greek Odyssey. Following in their footsteps, the next best thing is to go on a culture & culinary (烹饪的)vacation.Not only will you get to try mouth watering dishes, but you’ll also get to know more about the local culture and how it influenced the cuisine.
Local cuisine gives people an identity. Years ago, I was visiting Vienna with a group of friends.And one of them insisted on checking out the only restaurant in town serving Romanian food, just “like at home”．People who identify with traditional dishes from their home countries often come to this kind of restaurant as it feels like their “home away from home”．
Food reflects people’s opinions on life. Greeks have strong ties among the community. Mezedes, a collection of small dishes served as appetizers (开胃菜), are shared among the diners.The stories told over tzatziki, spanakopita, and dolmades create lifetime memories. Italians have great respect for their food and often talk about it.They also don’t mind spending a lot of time in the kitchen.Family meals are often joyful events with piles of dishes being served during an entire afternoon.
Food helps you discover other languages. People across the world love to gather around the table. Preparing the foods and eating also spark great conversations. It’s the best opportunity to learn how to correctly pronounce foreign language menu items.Knowing the local language will not only help you immerse (沉浸) in the culture but also build a hefty vocabulary!
32．Why does the author mention George Bernard Shaw in Paragraph 1
A．To show people’s great love of food.
B．To give an introduction to his works.
C．To stress his achievements in drama.
D．To explain the social influence on food.
33．What does the example in Paragraph 3 imply
A．Eating habits vary around the world.
B．People take pride in their local food.
C．People prefer foreign food to traditional food.
D．The same food you eat in a different place tastes different.
34．What is Paragraph 4 mainly about
A．Food brings neighbors together.
B．Greeks have strict table manners.
C．Food shows people’s way of life.
D．Cultural differences affect family meals.
35．What does the underlined word “hefty” in the last Paragraph probably mean
A．Scientific. B．Passive.
C．Limited. D．Large.
Playing sports is a lot of fun, but getting hurt is not. 36
Wear protective equipment.
The equipment you wear depends on the sport you play. Helmets are the most common protective equipment. They protect your head while you’re playing football, baseball, softball, biking, skateboarding, and so on.
Warm up.
37 Doing some stretching can get you prepared to hit the field. By warming up, you get yourself ready to play. Warming up your muscles and practicing a sport help keep you safe, too.
Know the rules of the games.
Traffic lights help prevent crashes between the cars that drive on the roads together. This works because drivers know the rules and follow them. 38 . When players know the rules of the game, fewer injuries happen. For example, you know that in soccer you can’t come from behind, crash into a player’s legs, and steal the ball.
39
Some rules don’t have anything to do with scoring points. Some rules are just about protecting other people. For example, a diver would make sure that the pool was clear before diving in. Otherwise, he or she might land on someone else.
Don’t play when you’re injured.
This is a really important one. If you love sports, you may get right back in the game, even after an injury. 40 it can lead to an even worse injury.
A．It’s just like sports.
B．Watch out for others.
C．Don’t do too much exercise.
D．But playing when you’re hurt is a bad idea.
E．You can take the following steps to prevent injuries.
F．It’s not a good idea to just go to the field and start playing.
G．You and the other players know what to expect from each other.
三、完形填空
Growing up in the USA, I always wanted to experience another culture. The 41 came when I was 15. After a few months of planning and 42 , I was ready to spend the second semester of my first high school year 43 an exchange student in Australia.
44 in Perth was one of the most exciting moments of my life. I realized then that there was no turning back. The family I would live with was waiting for me, and it would only be five days 45 the new school year. The school I attended was 46 my school back in the States. I was quite 47 at first, especially never having been to a new school — even in the US. Everything went without 48 , though. The teachers were welcoming and the students were friendly.
The most 49 time was travelling with other exchange students around Australia during our semester break. The few weeks we 50 together were full of amazing activities.
At the end of our 51 in Australia, we had three weeks to share our stories and help each other deal with leaving. It was only 52 that our last day together was filled with tears. We packed our camp, 53 e-mail addresses and gathered together for a final good-bye.
Upon coming home, an open mind was again important. Resettling home took time and 54 , but at last I made it. All the while, I was thoughtful to letting my family and friends know how happy I was to be home and how 55 I had missed them — though the experience is still unforgettable with me. So, if you have the opportunity to study abroad you most certainly should.

六、书面表达
67．阅读下面短文，根据所给情节进行续写，使之构成一个完整的故事。
One pleasant New Year morning, Edward rose and washed and dressed himself very quickly. He wanted to be the first to wish everyone a happy New Year. He looked in every room, and shouted the words of welcome. He ran into the street to repeat them to those he might meet. When he came back, his father gave him two bright new silver dollars. His face lighted up as he took them. He had wished for a long time to buy some pretty books that he had seen at the bookstore.
He left the house with a light heart, intending to buy the books. As he ran down the street, he saw a poor German family, the father, the mother, and three children shivering（发抖）with cold.
“I wish you a happy New Year,” said Edward, as he was happily passing by. The man shook his head. “You do not belong to this country ” said Edward. The man again shook his head, for he could not understand or speak the English language. But he pointed to his mouth, and to the children, as if to say, “These little ones have had nothing to eat for a long time.” Edward quickly understood that these poor people were in a very difficult situation and required some help. He took out his dollars, and gave one to the man, and the other to his wife.
How their eyes sparkled（闪耀）with gratitude! They said something in their language, which doubtless meant, “We thank you a thousand times, and will remember you in our prayers.”
When Edward came home, his father asked what book he had bought. He hung his head a moment, but quickly looked up. “I have bought no books,” said he, I gave my money to some poor people, who seemed to be very hungry.”

Everybody here is very kind to me, but there are times when I think of home and get rather sad. I sometimes get a little tired of English cooking. I go to school once a week. School is a part of London where there are all sorts of restaurants, French, Italian, Greek, Spanish, Indian and Chinese. So when I’m tired of English cooking, I go to one of the school restaurants.
Sometimes I even have a bottle of wine! Wine isn’t cheap in England. It isn’t something we drink every day. English people do not talk as much as we do. I’ve often traveled by train and nobody has spoken to me during the journey. I know one Englishman who is unusual. He speaks seven languages. He can also be silent in seven languages! But I’ve found one way to make him talk. He’s interested in mountain climbing. If I ask him about climbing, he’s always ready to talk.

(回顾我和保罗一起走过的200多英里，我有了一个认识。为步行而步行，虽然健康和令人钦佩，但只是用我们双脚移动的一小部分好处。更深层次的回报是重新发现我们周围的世界，缩短彼此之间的距离，分享彼此的文化。)”并结合全文可知，本文主要讲述了作者住在云南喜洲，这里在历史悠久的茶马古道上，他遇到了要用双脚环游地球的保罗 萨洛佩科，于是决定陪保罗去云南，文章描述了他们路上的见闻和感悟。由此可推知，文章的目的是分享和回顾一段旅程。故选A。

32．推理判断题。根据文章第一段“Whether you consider yourself a foodie or not, food is part of your daily routine. Also, food has a way of bringing people together. It is the focus of celebrations. George Bernard Shaw said it well: “There is no love sincerer than the love of food.”(无论你是否认为自己是美食家，食物都是你日常生活的一部分。此外，食物有一种让人们走到一起的方式。它是庆祝活动的焦点。萧伯纳说得好：“没有比对食物的爱更真挚的爱了。”)”可知，文章作者在第一段中提到George Bernard Shaw是为了强调人们对食物的热爱。故选A。

(当地美食赋予人们一种身份。几年前，我和一群朋友去维也纳旅游。其中一人坚持要去镇上唯一一家供应罗马尼亚菜的餐馆，就像“在家里一样”。喜欢本国传统菜肴的人经常来这种餐厅，因为这里给人一种“家外之家”的感觉。)”可知，第三段讲述的是当地美食赋予人们一种身份，而第三段中的例子表明，人们对自己家乡的传统菜肴感到自豪。故选B。
34．主旨大意题。根据文章第四段“Food reflects people’s opinions on life. Greeks have strong ties among the community. Mezedes, a collection of small dishes served as appetizers(开胃菜), are shared among the diners. The stories told over tzatziki, spanakopita, and dolmades create lifetime memories. Italians have great respect for their food and often talk about it. They also don’t mind spending a lot of time in the kitchen. Family meals are often joyful events with piles of dishes being served during an entire afternoon.(食物反映了人们对生活的看法。希腊人在社区中有着紧密的联系。作为开胃菜的小菜被食客们分享。在tzatziki,spanakopita和dolmade上讲述的故事创造了一生的记忆。意大利人非常尊重他们的食物，并经常谈论它。他们也不介意花很多时间在厨房里。家庭聚餐通常是一件快乐的事情，整个下午都有成堆的菜。)”可知，第四段主要讲述了食物是人们对生活的看法，反映了人们的生活方式。故选C。
35．词句猜测题。根据划线单词上一句“Food helps you discover other languages. People across the world love to gather around the table. Preparing the foods and eating also spark great conversations. It’s the best opportunity to learn how to correctly pronounce foreign language menu items. (食物可以帮助你学习其他语言。世界各地的人们都喜欢围坐在餐桌旁。准备食物和吃东西也会引发很好的对话。这是学习如何正确发音外语菜单项的最好机会。)”可知，这样可以积累“大的、丰富的”词汇量。选项A“Scientific (科学的)”；选项B“Passive (被动的)”；选项C“Limited (有限的)”；选项D“Large (大的、丰富的)”。故选D。

37．根据后文“Doing some stretching can get you prepared to hit the field. By warming up, you get yourself ready to play. Warming up your muscles and practicing a sport help keep you safe, too.(做一些伸展运动可以让你做好上场的准备。通过热身，你可以为比赛做好准备。热身你的肌肉和练习一项运动也有助于保证你的安全)”可知，后文提到了做热身或伸展运动，说明不建议直接开始运动，避免受伤。故F选项“直接走到球场上开始玩不是个好主意”符合语境，故选F。
38．根据上文“Traffic lights help prevent crashes between the cars that drive on the roads together. This works because drivers know the rules and follow them.(交通灯有助于防止在道路上一起行驶的汽车之间发生碰撞。这是有效的，因为司机知道并遵守规则)”可知，上文通过交通灯来进行举例，本句为过渡句，指出运动也需要遵守规则。故A选项“运动也是一样”符合语境，故选A。
39．根据本段内容“Some rules don’t have anything to do with scoring points. Some rules are just about protecting other people. For example, a diver would make sure that the pool was clear before diving in. Otherwise, he or she might land on someone else.(有些规则与得分无关。有些规则只是为了保护其他人。例如，潜水员会在潜入之前确保泳池没人。否则，他或她可能会落在别人身上)”可知，本段提到潜水员会在潜入之前确保泳池没人。否则，他或她可能会落在别人身上，说明要在运动的时候小心不要伤到别人。故B选项“小心别人”符合语境，故选B。
40．根据标题“Don’t play when you’re injured.(受伤的时候不要比赛)”可知，本段的主旨是受伤的时候不要比赛，本句与上文“ If you love sports, you may get right back in the game, even after an injury. ”（如果你热爱运动，即使受伤后，你也可能重新回到比赛中）构成转折，指出受伤的时候不要运动，故D选项“但是受伤的时候运动是个坏主意”符合语境，故选D。

“I think I can wait for my books till next New Year,” continued he. His father looked at him with a blank look. He explained that it was a German family that was badly in need of help. They even didn't have enough clothes to wear. Edward's explanation made his father understand what had happened and he expressed that he couldn't agree more with him. In order to reward what he had done, his father bought the books, saying, “Wherever we saw someone in pain, never can we turn a blind eye to those in need. What you have done will make them a happy New Year.”
The next day, Edward was stepped by his father. When seeing what was held in his father’s hand, Edward felt a great sense of amazement welling up. He felt the sweetness of helping others. A few days later, Edward met the family again, and they still thanked him a thousand times. It seemed the city was bathed in brilliant sunshine because of Edward's feelings. It was only at the moment that he finally realized that whether rich or poor, he should do something to others. Thus, he can learn that giving is the source of happiness.
