In January 1998, 6-year-old Ryan sat in his first grade classroom. He was shocked to learn that many people in
developing African countries couldn’t get enough clean water. Not only did they not have a water fountain a few
steps from the classroom, like he did, but he learned millions of African children also got sick and some even diedbecause of polluted water. That day, Ryan decided to do something.
At first, he cleaned windows and did gardening for his family and neighbours. After four months, he saved up
$70 — a fortune to a 6-year-old. He thought it was enough to build a well in Africa. However, when he gave the
money to a charity, he was told that it actually cost $2,000 to build a well. Seventy dollars was only enough for a
hand pump. Ryan understood that a hand pump wouldn’t help the children. What they needed was a well dug near
their homes.
Two thousand dollars was a lot of money, but Ryan didn’t give up. He was determined to help other children
have clean water. He started to ask for help from his classmates and neighbours and persuaded them to donate
money. At the same time, a friend of Ryan’s mother helped make his story go public. After several months, Ryan
had raised the $2,000, with which a well was built near a primary school in Uganda.
Later, Ryan set up a foundation to encourage more people to help. Many inspired people gave him their
support. Ryan’s foundation continues to attract support from more and more people, so the work of building more
wells can go on. Today, over 800,000 people in 16 countries across Africa have benefited from the life-changing
gift of clean, safe water.
4. What motivated Ryan to take action to help people in Africa?
A. His family’s involvement in charity. B. A desire to build a well for his family.
C. Learning about the shortage of clean water. D. Being inspired by his classmates’ selfless act.
5. How did Ryan eventually raise the $2, 000 needed to build a well in Uganda?
A. By doing extra chores. B. By turning to his parents.
C. By switching to the media. D. By asking for donations.
6. Which of the following best describes Ryan?
A. Humorous and helpful. B. Intelligent and interesting.
C. Gifted and understanding. D. Persistent and influential.
7. What does the author intend to tell us?
A. Water is the life-changing gift. B. A little kid can make a difference.
C. Donating money can change the world. D. Children should be taught about charity.
【答案】4. C 5. D 6. D 7. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了6岁男孩Ryan如何通过自己的努力,为非洲的孩子们筹集资金,
建造水井,提供干净饮用水的故事。
【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第一段中的“He was shocked to learn that many people in developing African countriescouldn’t get enough clean water. Not only did they not have a water fountain a few steps from the classroom, like
he did, but he learned millions of African children also got sick and some even died because of polluted water. That
day, Ryan decided to do something. (当得知许多非洲发展中国家的人们无法获得足够的清洁水时,他感到震
惊。他们不仅不像他那样,几步之遥就有一个饮水机,而且他还了解到,数百万非洲儿童因饮用受污染的
水而生病,有些甚至因此死亡。就在那天,瑞安决定要做点什么。)”可知,Ryan帮助非洲人民的动机来
源于他得知许多非洲国家缺乏干净水源。故选C。
【5题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第三段中的“He started to ask for help from his classmates and neighbours and
persuaded them to donate money. At the same time, a friend of Ryan’s mother helped make his story go public.
After several months, Ryan had raised the $2,000, with which a well was built near a primary school in Uganda.
(他开始向同学和邻居求助,并说服他们捐款。与此同时,瑞安母亲的一位朋友帮忙将他的故事公之于众。
几个月后,瑞安筹集到了2000美元,用这笔钱在乌干达一所小学附近打了一口井。)”可知,Ryan通过向
同学和邻居求助并说服他们捐款来筹集所需的2000美元,即Ryan最终通过募捐筹集到了在乌干达打一口
井所需的2000美元。故选D。
【6题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第三段“Two thousand dollars was a lot of money, but Ryan didn’t give up. He was
determined to help other children have clean water. He started to ask for help from his classmates and neighbours
and persuaded them to donate money. At the same time, a friend of Ryan’s mother helped make his story go public.
After several months, Ryan had raised the $2,000, with which a well was built near a primary school in Uganda.
(2000美元是一大笔钱,但瑞安没有放弃。他下定决心要帮助其他孩子获得清洁的水。他开始向同学和邻
居求助,并说服他们捐款。与此同时,瑞安母亲的一位朋友帮忙将他的故事公之于众。几个月后,瑞安筹
集到了2000美元,用这笔钱在乌干达一所小学附近打了一口井。)”可知,他开始向同学和邻居求助并说
服他们捐款,最终筹集到了足够的钱打井,这体现了他为了实现让非洲孩子有干净水的目标而坚持不懈的
品质。根据最后一段“Later, Ryan set up a foundation to encourage more people to help. Many inspired people
gave him their support. Ryan’s foundation continues to attract support from more and more people, so the work of
building more wells can go on. Today, over 800,000 people in 16 countries across Africa have benefited from the
life-changing gift of clean, safe water. (后来,瑞安成立了一个基金会,以鼓励更多的人参与到这项帮助行动
中来。许多受到鼓舞的人都给予了他支持。瑞安的基金会不断吸引着越来越多人的支持,这样一来,打更
多井的工作就能继续下去。如今,非洲16个国家的80多万人已经从这一改变命运的礼物 —— 清洁、安
全的水中受益。)”可知,他的行为激励了很多人给予支持,并且他的基金会吸引了越来越多的人,让更多
的井得以建造,使非洲 16 个国家的 80 多万人受益,这充分表明他是有影响力的。因此可以推断Ryan是一个坚持不懈且具有影响力的人。故选D。
【7题详解】
推理判断题。通读全文,尤其是根据文章第一段中的“He was shocked to learn that many people in
developing African countries couldn’t get enough clean water. Not only did they not have a water fountain a few
steps from the classroom, like he did, but he learned millions of African children also got sick and some even died
because of polluted water. That day, Ryan decided to do something. (当得知许多非洲发展中国家的人们无法获
得足够的清洁水时,他感到震惊。他们不仅不像他那样,几步之遥就有一个饮水机,而且他还了解到,数
百万非洲儿童因饮用受污染的水而生病,有些甚至因此死亡。就在那天,瑞安决定要做点什么。)”可知,
文章讲述了六岁的 Ryan如何通过自己的坚持和努力,帮助非洲贫困地区的人们获得清洁水源,最终影响
了成千上万人的故事。因此,作者想表达的是“一个孩子也能做出改变”。故选B。
C
As a high school student in England, I thought I knew a lot about Hamlet. Having seen quite a few
productions of Hamlet and read the play many times, I was full of confidence — until the Peking Opera came to
town!
Peking Opera, a form of traditional Chinese theatre, has over two hundred years of history. Does this mean it’s
easier than a Shakespeare play to understand? To find out the answer, I just had to go and see The Revenge of
Prince Zidan — the Peking Opera version of Hamlet.
Starting with an orchestra playing traditional Chinese instruments, the opera brought a completely new sound
to my Western ears. At first, I thought what I heard was a violin, but later I learnt that it was an instrument with two
strings called jingbu. Then, seeing the main characters come on stage, I was surprised! The costumes and masks
were amazing. The performers of course sang in Chinese, but the music, exaggerated movements and mime helped
get the meanings across to the audience. And the stage was really simple: a decorated whip represented a horse, and
a screen with Chinese characters, a study. Using such techniques, the opera had transformed a small stage into the
whole universe. I had never seen Prince Hamlet do a backflip before! That was simply incredible. It was so
dazzling and energetic that I wasn’t sure if the characters were performers or athletes! Everyone was clapping.
Before experiencing The Revenge of Prince Zidan, I wasn’t sure if I would enjoy it. But, in fact, I was on the
edge of my seat! Feeling the strong emotions of love, anger, fear and grief in the performance, I could easily
recognise the theme of Hamlet. So, if you want to see a show that combines music, singing, drama, poetry and
costume design with explosive effect, The Revenge of Prince Zidan ticks all the right boxes!
8. Why did the author go to see the Peking Opera version of Hamlet?
A. To find out if it’s easier to understand. B. To experience an old Chinese art form.C. To judge whether it is the best version. D. To know Chinese musical instruments.
9. What is Paragraph 3 mainly about?
A. The skillful movements of the performers. B. The simple stage setting of the Peking Opera.
C. The author’s feelings during the performance. D. The audience’s understanding of Chinese culture.
10. What does the underlined sentence in the last paragraph mean?
A. I almost fell off my seat. B. I was extremely excited.
C. I couldn’t control my behaviour. D. I could feel the complex emotions.
11. Which of the following can be the best title for the text?
A. How I Appreciate Peking Opera B. When Hamlet Meets Peking Opera
C. Hamlet Reveals Spirit of Shakespeare’s plays D. The Revenge of Prince Zidan Influences Audience
【答案】8. A 9. C 10. B 11. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了作者在观看了京剧版的《哈姆雷特》后,被其独特的艺术表现形
式所震撼的故事。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“Does this mean it’s easier than a Shakespeare play to understand? To find out the
answer, I just had to go and see The Revenge of Prince Zidan — the Peking Opera version of Hamlet.(这是否意味
着它比莎士比亚的戏剧更容易理解?为了找到答案,我去看了《王子复仇记》——京剧版的《哈姆雷
特》)”可知,作者去看京剧版《哈姆雷特》是为了弄清楚它是否比莎士比亚的戏剧更容易理解。故选A。
【9题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第三段“Starting with an orchestra playing traditional Chinese instruments, the opera brought
a completely new sound to my Western ears. At first, I thought what I heard was a violin, but later I learnt that it
was an instrument with two strings called jingbu. Then, seeing the main characters come on stage, I was surprised!

transformed a small stage into the whole universe. I had never seen Prince Hamlet do a backflip before! That was
simply incredible. It was so dazzling and energetic that I wasn’t sure if the characters were performers or athletes!
Everyone was clapping.(这部歌剧以演奏中国传统乐器的管弦乐队开场,给我西方人的耳朵带来了一种全新
的声音。起初,我以为我听到的是小提琴,但后来我才知道这是一种有两根弦的乐器,叫做景布。然后,
看到主要人物上台,我很惊讶!服装和面具太棒了。表演者当然是用中文演唱的,但音乐、夸张的动作和
哑剧有助于向观众传达意思。舞台很简单:装饰的鞭子代表马,屏幕上有汉字,书房。利用这样的技巧,歌剧把一个小舞台变成了整个宇宙。我从来没见过哈姆雷特王子做后空翻!这简直令人难以置信。它是如
此耀眼和充满活力,我不确定是演员还是运动员!每个人都在鼓掌)”可知,第三段主要介绍了作者观看京
剧表演过程中的所见所感。故选C。
【10题详解】
词句猜测题。根据划线句上文“Before experiencing The Revenge of Prince Zidan, I wasn’t sure if I would
enjoy it. But, in fact(在体验《王子复仇记》之前,我不确定自己是否会喜欢它。但事实上……)”以及下文
“Feeling the strong emotions of love, anger, fear and grief in the performance, I could easily recognize the theme
of Hamlet.(在表演中感受到爱,愤怒,恐惧和悲伤的强烈情感,我很容易就能认出哈姆雷特的主题)”可知,
作者原本不确定是否会喜欢这个表演, 结果在观看时被深深吸引,沉浸其中,感受到了强烈的情绪,说明
作者观看时是极其兴奋的,所以该句意思是“我极其兴奋”。故选B。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段“As a high school student in England, I thought I knew a lot about Hamlet. Having
seen quite a few productions of Hamlet and read the play many times, I was full of confidence — until the Peking
Opera came to town!(作为英国的一名高中生,我认为我对《哈姆雷特》很了解。看过几部《哈姆雷特》,
读过很多遍剧本,我充满了信心——直到京剧来到了城里!)”结合文章主要围绕作者观看京剧版《哈姆雷
特》这一事件展开,讲述了观看前后的想法以及观看时的体验等,重点体现了《哈姆雷特》与京剧相遇碰
撞出的独特效果,故B选项“当哈姆雷特遇到京剧”最符合文章标题。故选B。
D
Beethoven is undoubtedly one of the greatest musicians. He completed 722 musical works. Unfortunately, the
master died while still working on his 10th Symphon (交响曲) . Now, a team of musicians and scientists have used
artificial intelligence (AI) to complete the artist’s final composition.
Dr. Matthias first came up with the idea to complete the composition in 2019. He thought it was an appropriate
way to celebrate Beethoven’s 250th birthday in December 2020. He began by enlisting an international team of
music experts to help him with the giant task. They included music composer Walter and Dr. Ahmed, the creator of
an innovative AI technology for the art market.
Ahmed and his colleagues started the process by familiarizing the AI software initially with a broad range of
classical music, and then, narrowed it to just Beethoven’s works. Meanwhile, Walter and his group tried to interpret
the rough drafts and the handful of notes that detailed Beethoven’s plans for the 10thSymphony.
The team then began the slow and careful task of feeding the AI software musical notes from the unfinished
composition. To stay true to Beethoven’s original composition, Ahmed’s team sent Walter hundreds of AI-generated
musical note variations every evening. Walter would listen to them and then select the one that he thought wasclosest to what the artist would have written. The AI team would add the music and rerun the software to generate
the next suggestions. And piece by piece, the team was able to complete Beethoven’s 10th Symphony!
The composition was firstly released on October 9, 2021. Not surprisingly, it caused some controversy (争议).
Critics believe technology should not be used to copy the human creative process. Ahmed and his team agree with
their opinions and say their AI software is not out to replace humans—it is just a tool to help artists to express
themselves in new ways.
12. How did Dr. Matthias intend to celebrate Beethoven’s 250th birthday?
A. By finishing his work. B. By forming an AI team.
C. By working with other musicians. D. By interpreting his musical drafts.
13. What specific role did Walter play in the team?
A. He made the AI software familiar with classical music.
B. He made the list of international team of music experts.
C. He was responsible for developing and running the AI software.
D. He chose AI-generated musical notes closest to Beethoven’s intentions.
14. Ahmed and his team view their AI software as _______.
A. a copy machine B. a helpful tool
C. a creative replacement D. a new invention
15. What is the passage mainly about?
A. A team treasured classical music. B. A piece of software caused debate.
C. AI assisted in completing a composition. D. Musicians recommended masterpieces.
【答案】12. A 13. D 14. B 15. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了一个团队如何利用人工智能 (AI) 完成贝多芬的未完成作品——
第十交响曲。

博士于2019年首次提出完成这部作品的想法。他认为这是庆祝贝多芬2020年12月250岁生日的一种合适
方式)”可知,他打算通过完成贝多芬的作品来庆祝这一生日。故选A。
【13题详解】细节理解题。根据文章第四段“Walter would listen to them and then select the one that he thought was closest
to what the artist would have written.(Walter 会倾听这些AI生成的曲调变化,然后选择他认为最接近艺术家
所写的内容的一个)”可知,Walter 的角色是从AI生成的音乐变奏中选择最接近贝多芬原意的音乐片段。
故选D。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章最后一段“Ahmed and his team agree with their opinions and say their AI software is not
out to replace humans—it is just a tool to help artists to express themselves in new ways.(Ahmed和他的团队同意
批评者的观点,并表示他们的AI软件并不是要取代人类——它只是帮助艺术家以新的方式表达自己的一
种工具)”可推知,Ahmed和他的团队认为AI软件是一种辅助工具,而非替代品。故选B。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。根据文章第一段“Now, a team of musicians and scientists have used artificial intelligence (AI) to
complete the artist’s final composition.(现在,一个由音乐家和科学家组成的团队利用人工智能完成了这位艺
术家的最终作品)”以及全文主要描述了这个项目的实施过程和影响可知,本文主要讲述了人工智能协助完
成贝多芬未完成的作品。故选C。

it’s important to use them carefully and purposefully.(然而,谨慎并有目的地使用它们是很重要的)”表达的意
思一致,故选E项。
【20题详解】
根据上文“Control Your Tone of Voice. Body language isn’t just physical; it also includes the tone of your voice.
Practice varying your pitch, pace, and volume to keep your audience engaged. A flat voice can make even the most
interesting topic sound dull.(控制你的语调。肢体语言不仅仅是身体上的,它还包括你的语调。练习改变你
的音高、语速和音量来吸引观众。平淡的声音会让最有趣的话题听起来也很枯燥)”可知此处说的是改变语
调的重要性,与G项“Varying your tone helps emphasize key points and keep attention throughout your speech.
(改变你的语调有助于强调重点并在整个演讲过程中保持注意力)”表达的意思一致,故选G项。

【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章围绕留学这一话题展开论述,主要提及留学的弊端,最后强调权衡利弊
很重要。
【36题详解】
考查时态和主谓一致。句意:有机会让自己沉浸在一种新的文化中,结交一生的朋友,并接受世界一流的
教育,无疑是令人兴奋的。句子的主语是 The chance,后面的“ (immerse) yourself in a new culture, make
lifelong friends, and receive a world-class education”是修饰 chance 的定语,主语为单数,且此处描述的是
客观情况,应用一般现在时。故填 is。
【37题详解】
考查名词。句意:然而,也有一些重要的考虑可能会让你重新考虑你的决定。形容词性物主代词 your 后
接名词,decide 的名词形式是 decision,此处表示“重新考虑你的决定”。故填 decision。
【38题详解】
考查冠词。句意:成本通常是一个主要问题,因为学费、差旅费和生活成本可能比国内高得多。此处表示
“一个主要的担忧”,major 以辅音音素开头,用不定冠词 a 表示泛指。故填 a。
【39题详解】

根据后面的 than 可知,这里需要用形容词的比较级形式,high 的比较级是 higher,表示“比在国内的
(费用等) 高得多”。故填 higher。
【40题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:此外,适应一个新的国家、新的文化和新的教育体系可能是具有挑战性的。分析
句子结构可知,此处作主语,动名词可以作主语,所以应用 get 的动名词形式 getting。故填 getting。
【41题详解】
考查主语从句。句意:更具有挑战性的是,你可能需要制定新的解决问题的策略,特别是在教育方法完全不同的情况下。分析句子结构可知,此处需要连词引导主语从句,并且连词在从句中作主语,表示“……
的事情”。故填 What。
【42题详解】
考查时态、语态和主谓一致。句意:随着中国的蓬勃发展,教育体系在过去十年中得到了显著改善,现在
有许多优秀的大学。根据时间状语“in the past decade (在过去的十年以来) ”可知,句子要用现在完成时,
主语 its educational system 是单数,助动词用 has,且 improve 作及物动词时,意为“改善,改进,提
高”,作不及物动词时,意为“变得更好,改进”,都符合此处语境。故填 has improved/ has been
improved。
【43题详解】
考查介词。句意:他们有很好的设施和优秀的教授,帮助教育年轻人,他们将为经济做出贡献,进一步加
强我们的国家。contribute to 是固定短语,意为“为……做贡献”,符合此处语境,即助力经济发展。故
填 to。
【44题详解】
考查动词。句意:他们有很好的设施和优秀的教授,帮助教育年轻人,他们将为经济做出贡献,进一步加
强我们的国家。此处前面有 will,后需接动词原形,strength 是名词,其动词形式是 strengthen,意思是
“加强,增强”。故填 strengthen。
【45题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:虽然出国留学有很多潜在的好处,但在做出明智的选择之前,权衡利弊是至关重
要的。此处为固定句型“It is+形容词 +to do sth.”,it 作形式主语,真正的主语是后面的动词不定式短语。
故填 to weigh。

47. 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。
Green Thumb
All I did was show my little sister how to grow plants. Dig a hole. Put in a seed. Cover it with dirt. Water it.Wait. “See, Laynie,” I explained, “a whole plant will grow from this tiny seed. All we have to do is water it.”
Laynie had her own watering can so she could “help” me in the garden. One day, after everything was
watered, she ran to the fence and started sprinkling water on another spot. I walked over and saw a fresh patch of
dirt near the fence.
“Did you plant something there?” I asked.
“Yes,” she said. “I’m growing a pencil. My purple pencil got too small, so I planted it.”
“What? But, Laynie—”
I should have explained things right then, but I just muttered, “Uh…I never grew one before.”
.
Later I got what seemed like a great idea I dug up Laynie’s pencil and “planted” a brand-new purple
pencil. Laynie was really excited when she saw it. “My pencil grew!” she shouted.
A few days later, Laynie was watering on the same spot. Two days later, new crayons sticking their pointy
little heads out, thanks to me. Laynie jumped up and down and yelled, “They look like flowers!” She “picked”
them and ran into the house.
Next, Laynie grew an adult bear doll from a tiny one, a soup spoon from a teaspoon, and a hand mirror from a
piece of glass. When she claimed that she had grown these things, I just kept my mouth shut! Actually, it was fun
trying to think of what should grow from Laynie’s seeds. And it was cool to see her get excited.
One day I saw her patting down some dirt near the fence again, so I knew she’d just planted something. My
heart dropped to my feet when she asked, “How long does it take to grow a goldfish, Brad?” I couldn’t speak.
“Not long, I bet!” said Laynie. She knelt down to whisper “Grow, Molly. Grow!” before she skipped back to
the house.
注意:1.续写词数应为150左右;

【答案】One possible version:
I sat down with my back to the fence and thought for a long time. Sighing, I decided there was only one right
thing to do. I got up, took some things from the shed, and went inside. When I displayed the short pencil, the
crayons, the teaspoon... on the table, Laynie was dumbfounded. Then I explained how I’d dug up and replaced all
of her things. “No!” she screamed, red-faced. With a big shove, she knocked everything off the table. “Laynie,” I
swallowed hard and added, “Molly isn’t going to grow either.” At this, she burst into tears and ran off. The heart
pierced with guilt, I felt like a worm.
Later I found Laynie silting by the spot where Molly was buried. I sat down beside her, gently held her in my
embrace and apologized. Laynie turned her face away. I went on, ‘‘See, you can grow things from seeds—not from
pencils or... dead things. OK?” “Just seeds?” she asked, face still tear-stained. I nodded. She looked at me for a minute
as if thinking about something. Later that day, after we had a funeral for Molly, I saw Laynie patting down some dirt
on Molly’s grave. My heart tightened. “I’m growing some forget-me-nots, so Molly won’t forget me,” she said. This
time, I thought “the green thumb” would have a real harvest.
