二、阅读理解
Thailand is a country with a long and rich history. It is also one of those countries which have many traditions which modern times fortunately have not affected. Thailand is famous for its unique culture. It is well worth noting that Thai culture has been handed down from one generation to the next.
Thai Classical Dance
The inspiring Thai culture includes local music and wonderful Thai dances. The dances of course have something to do with its deep-rooted religion, fighting arts and beautiful clothing. Thai classical dance performances are generally performed by Thai ladies wearing beautiful Thai local costumes. Most resort(度假胜地)areas and many hotels frequently offer these Thai culture dance shows for foreign visitors.
Thai Greeting
The unique Thai gesture of greeting another person, the wai, is especially one of the greatest aspects of Thai culture. The wai is when a person joins both hands to either head or chest level while bending his head slightly towards his hands. This way of greeting is especially done when a younger person greets an older person and it indicates a sign of respect to their elders. Employees would also wai their managers even if the manager would be younger than themselves.
Bangkok
Bangkok is the culture centre of Thailand and has been the Thai capital since the end of the eighteenth century. Observing Thai culture in Bangkok can be a great experience as the combination of modern times and traditions have created a kind of unique atmosphere. Bangkok offers a package of Thai culture which is shown by numerous beautiful Thai temples and many examples of modern Thai architecture.

Different cultures celebrate the beginning of a new year in different ways. and at different times on the calendar.
In Western countries, people usually celebrate New Year at midnight on December 31st or January 1st. People may go to parties, sometimes dressed in formal clothes, and they may drink champagne at midnight. During the first minutes of the new year, people cheer and wish each other happiness for the year ahead. But some cultures prefer to celebrate the new year by waking up early to watch the sunrise. They welcome the new year with the first light of the sunrise.
Many cultures also do special things to get rid of bad luck at the beginning of a new year. For example, in Ecuador, families make a big doll from old clothes. The doll is filled with old newspapers and firecrackers. At midnight, the dolls are burned to show that the bad things from the past year are gone and the new year can start afresh.
Other common traditions to keep away bad luck in a new year include throwing things into rivers or the ocean, or saying special things on the first day of the new year. Other NewYear traditions are followed to bring good luck in the new year. One widespread Spanish tradition for good luck is to eat grapes on New Year’s Day. The more grapes a person eats, the more good luck the person will have in the new year. In France, people eat pancakes for good luck at NewYear. In the United States, some people eat black-eyed peas for good luck, but to get good luck for a whole year, you have to eat 365 of them!

A new study suggests that dark markings on the planet Mars represent sand — not water. The research in 2015 suggested that lines on some Martian hills were evidence of water. Yet American scientists now say these lines appear more like dry, flows of sand. If water is present, it is likely to be a small amount. Water in liquid form would be necessary for microbial (微生物的) life.
NASA, the American space agency, said more research is needed. Michael Meyer is the lead scientist for NASA’s Mars exploration programme. He noted that the latest study does not reject the presence of water. But he admitted, “It just may not be as exciting as the idea of rivers going down the sides of cliffs (悬崖).”
The new findings come from a team led by Colin Dundas of the United States Geological Survey. His team measured 151 of these lines in 10 areas. Most of the lines end with slopes between 28 degrees and 35 degrees. These measurements are similar to active sand dunes (沙丘) on both Mars and Earth. A small covering of dust that moves and sometimes becomes lighter might help explain the markings. They usually appear in the Martian summertime, and then disappear until the next year. If these lines are dry. this suggests that recent Mars has not had large volumes of liquid water. Dundas and his research team say that many questions remain.
“I still think that Mars has a great potential for having had life early on in its history,” Meyer said. “As long as that’s true, we also have a reasonable possibility of life still being on Mars. It just happens to be cryptic or well hidden.”
NASA currently has no robotic vehicle — either on Mars or in development — with the ability to climb steep slopes. The lack of such equipment has engineers coming up with ideas like Mar-tian helicopters or planes without pilots.
28．What do American scientists find on Mars now according to their study
A．A lot of little life. B．An amount of water.
C．Some Martian hills. D．Dark markings are sand.
29．When do the markings come out
A．In Martian spring. B．In Martian summer.
C．In Martian autumn. D．In Martian winter.
30．What does the underlined word “cryptic” in Paragraph 4 mean
A．Icy. B．Magical. C．Strange. D．Undiscovered
31．What’s Meyer’s opinion about having life on Mars
A．Doubtful. B．Trustful. C．Indifferent. D．Objective.
Listening to music is beneficial for adults, and science proves it. Music profoundly impacts our body, mind, and mood — a world without it would not be as good. 32 Some parents recognize its value and encourage children to learn or listen to music, but others overlook its importance. Here’s why music matters for children:
First, music enhances children’s intelligence. Studies show that children who learn music often have better thinking abilities than those not interested in it. 33 Music also calms children and lowers stress. Today’s children face academic pressure, and excessive stress harms their health. 34
35 Some children are naturally shy. They seem lost in their thoughts and don’t notice things around them. In such cases, “music therapy” is used to help — lifting their spirits and renewing their energy.
Moreover, music is a universal language. Our world has become a global village. 36 Learning music helps children understand diverse cultural traditions. Clearly, music is vital not only for adults but also for children. Thus, we should encourage children to engage with music.
A．Then, is music good for children
B．Music can improve children’s moods.
C．Luckily, listening to music can help them feel better.
D．Music is shared between every culture and generation.
E．Music can help you recognize and remember information better.
F．This is because the brain gets inspired by the rhythm and tone of music.
G．People are getting more and more interested in other cultures and countries.

七、书面表达
68．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。
Jackie Oelfke, a retired bank manager, pays great attention to developing children’s in-dependent financial awareness from an early age. She bought a piggy bank for every child and even passed on this good tradition to her granddaughter, Sunshine Oelfke. When Sunshine was just born, Jackie bought her a large piggy bank, which they initially used as a toy. As Sunshine grew older, they would pour out the coins to play games. Whenever they had small change, they would collect the coins and put them back into the piggy bank, enjoying the ritual tirelessly. For them, it wasn’t about lacking money, but about cultivating a good habit. The little girl has always embraced this concept: even if you are rich, you should be careful with your money.
Two weeks ago, the 7-year-old girl emptied her piggy bank onto the living room floor after school and immediately started counting. Jackie, watching her granddaughter carefully line up the coins, thought she was playing as usual. But then, Jackie saw Sunshine put the coins into a plastic bag and place it in her backpack. Sunshine’s mind was so preoccupied that she didn’t respond when spoken to.
“That aroused my curiosity,” Jackie said. “Nobody messes with the piggy bank.” After observing Sunshine for a few minutes longer, Jackie decided to find out why the little girl had broken into her savings.
“What are you doing with that money ” Jackie asked her granddaughter with a smile.
“I’m taking it to school,” Sunshine replied without looking up. She seemed to hesitate before continuing. Finally, the little girl stated why she needed the money: “I’m going to take it for milk money. My friend Layla doesn’t get milk—her mum doesn’t have milk money, and I do.”
This act of kindness resonated deeply with Jackie. She recalled participating as a special guest in activities at Sunshine’s school, where Sunshine’s teacher, Rita Hausher, had mentioned that many students in the class came from poor families. Rita had specifically remembered Layla. At that time, Jackie had thought about helping such students but hadn’t known the most appropriate way to do it. Sunshine’s simple, direct action provided a heartfelt answer.
注意：
1. 续写词数应为 150左右；
2. 请按如下格式作答。
Paragraph 1:
Jackie’s heart melted (融化) at Sunshine’s words.
__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Paragraph 2:
Jackie posted a tearful video online to explain her granddaughter’s plan.

He developed the idea for the television sports show and hosted ABC’s Wide World of Sports, which showed a variety of sports on Saturday afternoon. In 1964, Gowdy made a video for a show in which he and the famous fisherman Joe Brooks went fishing in the Argentine mountains. It became a hit and almost immediately ABC created a new show built around outdoor amusement — The American Sportsman, hosted by Curt Gowdy. The show focused on fishing and hunting experiences involving famous persons from movie stars, athletes to educators. For millions of Americans, the show was their window to the natural world. Gowdy, an active environmentalist, was a member of the Conservation Hall of Fame International. To honor his work, the State of Wyoming built the Curt Gowdy State Park in 1972. The park lies above 6, 450 feet in height. Gowdy loved it, saying “It has two beautiful lakes, hiking trails, fishing and beauty. What greater honor can a man receive ” OK, so much for today.

It just happens to be cryptic or well hidden.”(‘我依然认为，火星在其早期历史中极有可能存在过生命，’Meyer说，‘只要这一点成立，那么火星上现在仍存在生命的可能性也是合理的。只是这些生命可能……，或是藏得很好。’)”可推测，“cryptic”与“well hidden”由“or”连接，构成并列关系，说明二者含义相近。“well hidden”意为“隐藏得很好”，而选项D“undiscovered(未被发现的)”与之表意最贴近。故选D。
31．推理判断题。根据文章第四段““I still think that Mars has a great potential for having had life early on in its history,” Meyer said. “As long as that’s true, we also have a reasonable possibility of life still being on Mars. ”(‘我依然认为，火星在其早期历史中极有可能存在过生命，’Meyer说，‘只要这一点成立，那么火星上现在仍存在生命的可能性也是合理的。’)”可推测，Meyer对火星存在生命（包括过去和现在）持相信的态度。故选B。

I’d like to invite you to join us for a visit to the nearby nursing home next Saturday for the Double Ninth Festival. It is the day for the elderly in our culture.

We should be back around 4 o'clock in the afternoon. If you are able to come with us, please let us know and we’ll wait for you at the gate at 9 in the morning.
Looking forward to your reply.
Yours,

68．One possible version:
Jackie’s heart melted at Sunshine’s words. Choked with emotion, Jackie held her sweet granddaughter tightly in her arms. She realized that actions truly do speak louder than words. Last week, Jackie and Sunshine met with Sunshine’s teacher, Rita Hausher, and handed her the $30 the kindergartener had saved. Rita explained that there are 20 kids in Sunshine’s class, and about half don’t get milk. Since a carton costs $0.45, providing milk daily for all the children who currently go without would cost approximately $99 per month.
Jackie posted a tearful video online explaining her granddaughter’s plan. To her surprise, dozens of people offered to donate to the cause. Within a week, Jackie raised more than $1,000. Thanks to this generosity, every student in Sunshine’s class who needs it can now get free milk for the rest of the year. Jackie said Sunshine doesn’t see her kind act as a big deal; she was just trying to help her friends. “She doesn’t fully grasp the impact she’s created,” Jackie said. “But now she knows she can make a difference if she puts her mind to it.”
