The worst they might say is "Please be nicer tomorrow". Many parents are satisfied with a B-grade for each subject.But things in Chinese schools are quite different. Parents have high expectations for their children.

The geography teacher thinks Sarah needs to ________.A. organize her ideas fasterB. draw maps more carefullyC. hand in her homework on timeD. spend more time on rememberingBSpeaking English is not only about using proper grammar, but also about understanding the culture. Here is some important advice to remember when speaking English in the United States.◆Americans have difficulties understanding foreign accents. Many Americans are not used to foreign accents. This requires patience from both of you.◆Talk about places: Americans love to talk about places. When speaking to a stranger, ask them where they come from and then say something about that place. For example: “Oh, I have a friend who worked in Los Angeles. He says it’s a beautiful place to live in.” Most Americans will then willingly talk about their experiences of living in or visiting that city or place.◆Talk about work: It is common for Americans to ask “What do you do?” It’s not considered impolite as in some countries and is a popular topic of discussion between strangers.◆Talk about sports: Americans love sports! However, they love American sports. When speaking about football, most Americans understand “American football”, not soccer.◆Be careful when expressing ideas about race, religion or other sensitive(敏感的)topics:The United States is a society with different cultures. Americans are very sensitive to other cultures and ideas.24. For Americans, the question “what do you do?” is ________.A. commonB. impoliteC. boringD. surprising25. What can we learn about Americans?A. They like to learn foreign accents.B. They are willing to talk about places.C. They prefer soccer to American football.D. They accept other ideas and cultures easily.26. The writer gives some advice mainly on ________.A. talking with AmericansB. working with AmericansC. speaking American EnglishD. understanding American societyCSome people think that they have an answer to the problems of traffic and pollution in large cities. Their answer is the bicycle or bike.In a great many cities, hundreds of people ride bicycles to work every day. In New York City, some bike riders have even formed a group called "Bike for a Better City". They claimed that if more people rode bicycles to work there would be fewer automobiles in the downtown section of the city and therefore less dirty air from car engines.For several years this group has been trying to get city government to help bicycle riders. For example, they want the city to paint special lanes (车道)—for bicycles only—on some of the main streets, because when bicycle riders must use the same lanes as cars, there may be more accidents. "Bike for a Better City" feels that if there were special lanes, more people would use bikes.But no bicycle lanes have been painted yet. Not everyone thinks it is a good idea. Taxi drivers don't like the idea—they say it will slow traffic. Some store owners on the main streets don't like the idea—they say that if there is less traffic, they will have less business. And most people live too far from downtown to travel by bike.The city government has not yet decided what to do. It wants to keep everyone happy. On weekends, Central Park—the largest open place in New York—is closed to cars, and the roads may be used by bicycles only.

I have learned over the past years that sometimes when I lose, I get a lot more out of it than winning. Also, I find a lot of times in sports, people are getting too caught up(深陷其中)in the game instead of just having fun. The real purpose of sports is to have fun and learn life lessons along the way.I greatly encourage you to be a part of the school sports. Even if you are not the best, you can still have fun. Sports give people a great and healthy way of spending free time, instead of lying around playing with cellphones. Sports also give us a sense of achievement. There isn't a better feeling than to have done something fun and productive for my day.I think that we all need sports to give us courage. If we try hard in sports, we usually do well. If we did the same in study, we would all be champions. Another reason why I encourage you to play sports is that it's just fun. Without sports, our lives would just be boring. So as you may be able to tell, sports are amazing!Our coaches not only teach us to play sports, but show class(风度)and good sportsmanship(运动员精神) while playing them. It's never fun to have the winner to rub it in your face(炫耀)when you lose. That's why our coaches teach us to show class when we lose; also, when coaches get onto you, don't get down. They only want to see you improve and learn from what they say. In fact, if they don't shout loudly when you do badly, you should start worrying, because they are giving up on you.Overall, sports are great! They bring out the best and worst of us. You can gain a lot from them! However, we can't let sports get too serious to where it brings down all the fun. So to have the most fun in sports, you just need try your best and not worry so much about the winning or losing.31. The underlined phrase "get onto you" in Paragraph 4 probably means ________.A. "point out your mistakes"B. "spend time with you"C. "worry about your future"D. "agree with you"32. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?A. Sports bring us great fun only if we are good at them.B. Sports give us the best way of spending free time.C. We can get more from winning than losing.D. We should take pleasure in doing sports.33. What is the best title of this passage?A. Are we too caught up?B. To win or to gain?C. Are sports really great?D. For honor or for health?第II卷笔试部分六、阅读回答问题.You love reading, but you read all your books and are tired of reading the same ones. You plan to go to the library, but don't know what kind of books to get. With the right knowledge, it's easy to choose a good book!Before you choose, answer these questions first. What authors(作者)do you like? Look for books by the authors you like, and you can get more of the same kind of books. What are your interests(兴趣)? Look for the books about your hobbies, and you may like reading them. Is there a kind of book you want to try? If there is, find the book and read the summary. This will help you decide if the book is right for you.Search(搜寻)in your house next. Maybe someone in your family has some pretty good books. Also, by searching in your house, you can find some books that you can read, and they won't even cost you any money. Then,ask someone to recommend(推荐)a good book. You can ask your elder brother or sister, your mom, your dad, your best friend, or even your English teacher. You should ask people who like the same kind of books as you, so that you can get books that match(匹配)your need. Join a book club,please. Being part of a book club is often a way to read new books with others. Joining a book club helps you know who else likes the same books as you. You can read books together and discuss them.Finally, read the first part of each book, so that you can know the main idea of the book, and decide if you like it or not.34.

It was just a five-minute walk from our hotel. On the roof, there are many statues (雕像). They are all about characters from Bible (圣经).

Inside, we enjoyed the beautiful glass windows.①We then walked to the La Scala, Milan’s world-famous opera house. It doesn’t look like much from the outside, but the inside is wonderful. Most of the greatest singers of the past 200 years sang there.①Between the Duomo di Milano and La Scala is the Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II hallway. We went there from the opera house.

If you lost it, what would you do to get it back? Liu Mengjie found his own answers to these questions.①Liu Mengjie was from Taiwan. He started to learn to play the piano at a very young age. He was such a talent that he was accepted into a music school at only 13. He left his home to study at the Curtis Institute of Music in Pennsylvania. Liu became one of the teachers after he graduated in 1993. That was the same year that he became famous in the music world.①When Liu was 23, just a few years after an outstanding performance, he came down with a serious illness. He had a difficult time walking and his heart even stopped beating. The worst part was that he couldn’t move his fingers. The doctor said, “I am sorry. I am afraid you have to say goodbye to your piano forever.”①However, Liu surprised everyone. He practiced his fingers very hard every day after he spent one month learning how to sit up. With strong will, he kept on with hiscareer as an excellent pianist. “I feel full and alive. Looking back on this journey, I want to say thanks and I have found the true meaning of life: be strong and stick to (坚持) your dream.”8.Why was Liu Mengjie accepted into a music school at only 13?A.Because he couldn’t live without playing the piano.B.Because he was pretty talented in playing the piano.C.Because he started to learn piano when he was very young.D.Because he had to leave his home to study in a new school.9.What can we infer (推断) from the doctor’s words in Paragraph.3?A.Even after Liu Mengjie got better, he couldn’t play the piano anymore.B.It will be good for Liu Mengjie’s health if he stops playing the piano.C.Liu Mengjie could keep on playing the piano after he got better.D.It will be impossible for Liu Mengjie to be well again.10.How did Liu Mengjie feel after he kept on as an excellent pianist?A.Thankful.B.Relaxed.C.Empty.D.Tired. 11.Which is the best title (标题) for this passage?A.A Serious IllnessB.A Man of Talent and StrengthC.A Talented PianistD.A Dream in Music①As a powerful chatting robot, ChatGPT becomes really popular. It is a large language model created by OpenAI and it is one of the most wonderful AI models now. It brings big changes to people’s life in many ways, especially education.①It helps students learn in lots of personal ways. With its excellent machine learning ability, ChatGPT can know very well about each student. So it can provide students with customized (定制的) learning materials (资料). Also, students can ask it for help with their homework. For example, a student may ask, “How to find information about the history of soccer?” ChatGPT will list the names of books,museums and key websites in a few seconds (秒). By searching (搜索) on these websites, students will have a clear understanding of soccer.①For teaching. ChatGPT is a window to a large number of teaching resources (资源). It makes teachers rethink the working ways. Many kinds of easy daily work, such as test papers, planning lessons and analyzing questionnaires (分析问卷), can be done more quickly. In this way, teachers can spend more time on more complex tasks, like designing classroom activities and making teaching plans.①However, every coin has two sides. Some teachers say that ChatGPT isn’t good for the development of students’ creative thinking. It may turn students into “mindless searching machines”. The teachers also worry that with the wide use of ChatGPT, the results of education may not be as good as before.①“ChatGPT can help our teachers and students understand the power of technology,” says Ellen Meier, an engineer in the ChatGPT research team. “However,” she adds, “it should not replace the roles of teachers or students in the classroom.”12.How many personal ways can ChatGPT help students with their study in?A.Two.B.Three.C.Four.D.Five. 13.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A.ChatGPT is the most wonderful AI model now.B.Teachers can get few teaching resources from ChatGPT.C.Teachers think ChatGPT can make students' creative thinking better.D.Students will understand well of soccer after searching on the websites. 14.What does the underlined word “complex” in Paragraph 3 mean?A.Slow.B.Quick.C.Difficult.D.Easy. 15.Which of the following ideas may Ellen Meier agree with?A.It will be better for teachers to use ChatGPT more In the future.B.Students need to use ChatGPT as much as possible in the future.C.Technology should take the place of teachers in teaching in the future.D.Students can understand the importance of technology by using ChatGPT.阅读下文,请从A一F选项中选出符合第1-5题的最佳中心句。

Tom was the seeker this time, and Jerry was the hider. The park was full of trees and bushes, which made it the perfect place for their game.

He decided to hide behind a large rock near the pond. This time, Tom had to work harder to find him. After searching under the bushes and behind the trees, Tom finally noticed the rock.

There are five blanks in the passage and each blank has four choices marked A, B, C, and D.Passage:Last summer holiday, I went on a trip to Beijing with my family. We visited many places of interest, such as the Great Wall, the Forbidden City, and the Summer Palace. The Great Wall was (1)_________; it was so long and had a great view.I climbed a lot of steps and felt very (2)_________ when I reached the top. At the Forbidden City, we saw beautiful palaces and learned about Chinese history. In the evening, we enjoyed delicious food in a local restaurant.

On weekends, I like to visit the library.A. a / aB. one / oneC. the / theD. some / someAnswer: AExplanation: The correct answer is “a” because “afternoon” is an un countable noun, and “a” is used to refer to an indefinite quantity of an uncountable noun. “One” is used for countable nouns, “the” is used for specific nouns,and “some” is also used for uncountable nouns but is more general and not as specific as “a.”2、If you___________(2) your homework before you go out, you won’t have to worry about finishing it late.A. will doB. doC. had doneD. have doneAnswer: BExplanation: The correct answer is “do” because the sentence is in the simple present tense, which is used for habits, general truths, and regular routines. The future tense “will do” suggests a future action that is not necessarily related to the present habit, while the past perfect “had done” and the present perfect “have done” are both used for action s that have occurred in the past and have relevance to the present.3、The teacher__________(be) in the classroom when the bell rang.Answer: wasExplanation: The sentence describes a past event that happened at a specific time, so the past simple tense is used to describe the state of the teacher when the bell rang. The correct form of the verb “be” in the past simple tense for the third person singular is “was.”4、If it__________(rain) tomorrow, we will cancel the picnic.Answer: rainsExplanation: The sentence is an example of a conditional sentence expressing a future possibility. In the second condition (if clause), the simple present tense is used to describe a future event that is conditional on another event. Therefore, the correct form of the verb “rain” in the simple present tense for the third person singular is “rains.”5.In the___________(complete) weather, we decided to go for a picnic.A. beautifulB. beautifullyC. beautifullylyD. beautifully’dAnswer: AExplanation: The correct answer is “beautiful” because we need an adjective to describe the noun “weather.” The other options are not grammatically correct: “beautifully” is an adverb, “beautifullyly” is a misspelling, and “beautifully’d” is a contraction that would only be used after a verb.6.She___________(go) to the store last night, but she couldn’t find her car keys.A. was goingB. wentC. had goneD. have been goingAnswer: AExplanation: The correct answer is “was going” because the sentence describes an action that was in progress at a specific time in the past (“last night”). “Went” is the simple past tense, which does not indicate continuous action. “Had gone” is the past perfect tense, which implies a past action that was completed before another past action. “Have been going” is the present perfect continuous tense, which is not appropriate in this context as it implies ongoing action up to the present.7.In the 7 days, the students have been working hard to prepare for the upcoming science fair.答案:past解析:根据句意,这里指的是“过去的几天”,应该使用过去时态的形容词形式,因此用“past”。
