I have worked as a keeper at the National Zoo for 11 years. Spot and Stripe are the first tiger cubs (幼兽) that have ever been born here. Globally, a third of Sumatran cubs in zoos don’t make it to adulthood, so I decided to give them round-the-clock care at home.
I’ve got two children—the younger one, Kynan, was extremely happy about the tigers arriving—but all of us really looked forward to being part of their lives and watching them grow. I wasn’t worried about bringing them into my home with my wife and kids. These were cubs. They weighed about 2.5kg and were so small that there was absolutely no risk.
As they grew more mobile, we let them move freely around the house during the day, but when we were asleep we had to contain them in a large room, otherwise they’d get up to mischief. We’d come down in the morning to find they’d turned the room upside down, and left it looking like a zoo.
Things quickly got very intense due to the huge amount of energy required to look after them. There were some tough times and I just felt extremely tired. I was grateful that my family was there to help. We had to have a bit of a production line going, making up “riser milk”, washing baby bottles, and cleaning the floors.
When Spot and Stripe were four months old, they were learning how to open doors and jump fences, and we knew it really was time for them to go. It was hard for us to finally part with them. For the first few days, Kynan was always a bit disappointed that the cubs weren’t there.
I’m not sad about it. I’m hands-on with them every day at the zoo, and I do look back very fondly on the time that we had them.
4. Why did the author bring the tiger cubs home
A. To ensure their survival. B. To observe their differences.
C. To teach them life skills. D. To let them play with his kids.
5. What do the underlined words “get up to mischief” mean in paragraph 3
A. Behave badly. B. Lose their way.
C. Sleep soundly. D. Miss their mom.
6. What did the author think of raising the tiger cubs at home
A. Boring. B. Tiring.
C. Illegal. D. Risky.
7. Why did the author decide to send Spot and Stripe back to the zoo
A. They frightened the children. B. They became difficult to contain.
C. They annoyed the neighbours. D. They started fighting each other.
C
The Fifth National List of Representative Elements of Intangible Cultural Heritage (非物质文化遗产) of China was announced, adding 185 items to the list, including the skills of making luosifen.
Luosifen, or river snail rice noodles, is a dish known for its special smell in the southern Chinese city of bining the traditional food of the Han people with that of the Miao and Dong ethnic (民族的) groups, luosifen is sour, spicy, salty, hot and even smelly after being boiled.
Originating in Liuzhou in the 1970s, luosifen served as an inexpensive street snack that people outside of the city knew little about. In 2012, luosifen appeared in a hit Chinese food TV program, A Bite of China. After that, it became a household name.
The development of the Internet, especially the boom of e-commerce, has brought this Chinese local food passion to a new level. Luosifen often shows up in videos by food bloggers. One of the most influential (有影响力的) bloggers has 15.5 million followers on social media. Her video of how to make luosifen has gained millions of views on the websites abroad.
The development of the Internet allowed luosifen to be well received. According to data from main e-commerce platforms the turnover of luosifen in 2021 was 15 times more than that of 2020, with the number of buyers growing 9 times year on year.
As luosifen becomes more and more popular, the local government is trying to establish the official international position of this unique fine food. Authorities in Liuzhou City have applied for UNESCO’s recognition of luosifen as an intangible cultural heritage.
8. What made luosifen well known around China in 2012
A. Its unique taste. B. A TV program.
C. The online eating shows. D. Efforts from the local government.
9. What can be known about the food blogger’s video of luosifen
A. It makes the food blogger an Internet star.
B. It encourages more people to make videos.
C. It helps luosifen become known to the world.
D. It attracts more food bloggers to make luosifen.
10. The underlined part “turnover” in paragraph 5 probably refers to the amount of________.
A. sales B. views C. production D. comments
11. In which part of a website may this text appear
A. Tour. B. Education. C. Culture. D. Advertisement.
D
Punks, Ravers, Mods and Teddy Boys. No, these aren’t some hot new bands, but the names of a number of British youth subcultures from the last 70 years. Youth Club, a UK not-for-profit organization, released a book earlier this year celebrating many different subcultures from throughout Britain’s recent history.
“A catalyst for creativity on the worldwide stage, British youth culture movements from the Teddy Boys of the 1950s to the Grime Scene of the 2000s continue to play a pioneering role in music, fashion and creativity across the globe,” it wrote on its website.
These subcultures were traditionally a way for young people to show their personalities to others. Walking around London in the 1970s would have meant seeing dozens of young “punks” — people dressed in ripped denim, leather jackets, body piercings and with brightly-dyed hair on the streets. And in the 90s, “ravers” were young people who threw all-night parties in abandoned buildings or car parks.
So, what was the reason behind these subcultures
“On both sides of the Atlantic, more and more young disappointed teenagers were looking for an escape from the boredom and restrictions of society,” wrote Ian Youngs, BBC entertainment reporter. “Unemployment, racial tensions and social changes added fuel to their fires.”
Youth subcultures have almost disappeared in the West. Some experts believe the reason for this is the instant and low-priced availability of music and clothing in the Internet age. “Fashion and music, they’re much cheaper and they’re much faster today,” Ruth Adams, a culture lecturer at King’s College London told The Guardian.
“When I was a teenager, you had to stick to one type of music or fashion, because it cost more money. Now, it's all a bit vaguer,” she said, believing that it's harder to figure out someone’s personality or music tastes nowadays just by looking at them.
Despite this, Adams believes that today’s young people are still finding their own way to express themselves, but in a more modern way. “It’s certainly happening online, ”she said. “It’s a lot easier to use personas online just by showcasing certain types of mysterious knowledge. ”
12. What do we know about British youth subcultures
A. They date back to the 1970s. B. They were started by Youth Club.
C. They are contemporary culture movements. D. They were a way for youths to express themselves.
13. What contributed to the appearance of these youth subcultures
A. The easy access to music and clothing. B. Young people’s desire for freedom and fun.
C. The political pressure young people suffered. D. Young people’s longing for fame and wealth.
14. What does the underlined word “this” in Paragraph 6 probably refer to
A. The faster and cheaper music. B. The instant and low-priced fashion.
C. The disappearance of youth subcultures. D. The availability of music and clothing.
15. Which of the following would Ruth Adams probably agree with
A. Young people are less willing to express themselves.
B. Young people are less interested in music and fashion.
C. Music and fashion develop too fast for young people to follow.
D. The Internet makes it harder to tell the young’s real personalities.

I was lacking in everything needed to start a new friendship.
My parents moved to the town when they decided to look for new jobs but they didn’t realize I was really hurt when I said goodbye to my old friends. It felt awful to be a new student in the school and when my classmates were chatting, what I could do was to be caught up in my thoughts watching the clouds outside the window. I was not good at math or history; nor was I good at drawing or dancing. I was shy and timid. I had a few friends back at my hometown and it seemed that they were the only ones who I could be friends with for my whole life. I felt I had achieved a point of saturation with regard to having friends and I could make no further addition to my friend list. I was ashamed of myself, so I believed I deserved no notice from others until Emily came to my world.
Emily was fearless, outspoken and easy to go. She was everything I was not and I was too shy to come out of my shell. I met Emily in school almost every day and yet I never talked to her. We were in the same class but we were like poles apart. How I wished I could be like her or at least be a friend of hers!
It was another ordinary day.
I wandered to the bus stop in the morning and waited for the school bus. Birds were singing songs with their friends but who could I sing songs with I got on the bus and went straight to my usual seat, complaining in a low voice about getting up early and going to school like every other day, and about how things were going to be the same all over again. Little did I realize something different would happen that day.
Para. 1:
When I got up to get down the bus, my schoolbag was stuck in the armrest. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Para. 2:
I got noticed by Emily, who brought me courage to start a new friendship!

(我们的诗歌比赛每年举行两次)”可知,诗歌比赛一年举行两次,所以排除选项A.It takes place every two years.(它每两年举行一次)。由第一段最后一句“Write a poem about how the pandemic (疫情) has changed your life.(写一首关于疫情是如何改变了你的生活的诗)”,而选项B. It focuses on personal growth(它关注个人成长),两者不是很贴切,故排除选项B。由倒数第二段“ Judges are unable to comment on individual entries (评委无法对个人参赛作品发表评论)”可知,评委无法对个别参赛作品发表评论,所以选项D. It gives feedback on each entry.(它对每一个参赛作品给出反馈)被排除。由“Fees: 10 per poem (费用:每首诗10英镑)”可知,每首诗的参赛费用为10英镑,所以诗人要支付费用。故选C项。
【2题详解】
细节理解题。由“IMPORTANT: ☆Only one poem per person, per family is allowed. (重要事项:每个家庭每人只能写一首诗)”可知:比赛规则规定每户人家每个人只允许写一首诗。所以,“a family with 4 members(一个四口之家)”可以提交4首参赛作品。故选D项。
【3题详解】
细节理解题。根据IMPORTANT部分的“☆All entries are judged anonymously (匿名地). Please do not include your name, address, phone number, etc., or your entry will be disqualified. (所有参赛作品都将匿名进行评审。请勿填写姓名、地址、电话等,否则将被取消参赛资格)”可知,所有参赛作品都是匿名评判,所以不能在参赛作品中出现参赛者的姓名、地址、电话号码等,否则报名将被取消资格。故选D项。

I have worked as a keeper at the National Zoo for 11 years. Spot and Stripe are the first tiger cubs (幼兽) that have ever been born here. Globally, a third of Sumatran cubs in zoos don’t make it to adulthood, so I decided to give them round-the-clock care at home.
I’ve got two children—the younger one, Kynan, was extremely happy about the tigers arriving—but all of us really looked forward to being part of their lives and watching them grow. I wasn’t worried about bringing them into my home with my wife and kids. These were cubs. They weighed about 2.5kg and were so small that there was absolutely no risk.
As they grew more mobile, we let them move freely around the house during the day, but when we were asleep we had to contain them in a large room, otherwise they’d get up to mischief. We’d come down in the morning to find they’d turned the room upside down, and left it looking like a zoo.
Things quickly got very intense due to the huge amount of energy required to look after them. There were some tough times and I just felt extremely tired. I was grateful that my family was there to help. We had to have a bit of a production line going, making up “riser milk”, washing baby bottles, and cleaning the floors.
When Spot and Stripe were four months old, they were learning how to open doors and jump fences, and we knew it really was time for them to go. It was hard for us to finally part with them. For the first few days, Kynan was always a bit disappointed that the cubs weren’t there.
I’m not sad about it. I’m hands-on with them every day at the zoo, and I do look back very fondly on the time that we had them.
4. Why did the author bring the tiger cubs home
A. To ensure their survival. B. To observe their differences.
C. To teach them life skills. D. To let them play with his kids.
5. What do the underlined words “get up to mischief” mean in paragraph 3
A. Behave badly. B. Lose their way.
C. Sleep soundly. D. Miss their mom.
6. What did the author think of raising the tiger cubs at home
A. Boring. B. Tiring.
C. Illegal. D. Risky.
7. Why did the author decide to send Spot and Stripe back to the zoo
A. They frightened the children. B. They became difficult to contain.
C. They annoyed the neighbours. D. They started fighting each other.
【答案】4. A 5. A 6. B 7. B

Punks, Ravers, Mods and Teddy Boys. No, these aren’t some hot new bands, but the names of a number of British youth subcultures from the last 70 years. Youth Club, a UK not-for-profit organization, released a book earlier this year celebrating many different subcultures from throughout Britain’s recent history.
“A catalyst for creativity on the worldwide stage, British youth culture movements from the Teddy Boys of the 1950s to the Grime Scene of the 2000s continue to play a pioneering role in music, fashion and creativity across the globe,” it wrote on its website.
These subcultures were traditionally a way for young people to show their personalities to others. Walking around London in the 1970s would have meant seeing dozens of young “punks” — people dressed in ripped denim, leather jackets, body piercings and with brightly-dyed hair on the streets. And in the 90s, “ravers” were young people who threw all-night parties in abandoned buildings or car parks.
So, what was the reason behind these subcultures
“On both sides of the Atlantic, more and more young disappointed teenagers were looking for an escape from the boredom and restrictions of society,” wrote Ian Youngs, BBC entertainment reporter. “Unemployment, racial tensions and social changes added fuel to their fires.”
Youth subcultures have almost disappeared in the West. Some experts believe the reason for this is the instant and low-priced availability of music and clothing in the Internet age. “Fashion and music, they’re much cheaper and they’re much faster today,” Ruth Adams, a culture lecturer at King’s College London told The Guardian.
“When I was a teenager, you had to stick to one type of music or fashion, because it cost more money. Now, it's all a bit vaguer,” she said, believing that it's harder to figure out someone’s personality or music tastes nowadays just by looking at them.
Despite this, Adams believes that today’s young people are still finding their own way to express themselves, but in a more modern way. “It’s certainly happening online, ”she said. “It’s a lot easier to use personas online just by showcasing certain types of mysterious knowledge. ”
12. What do we know about British youth subcultures
A. They date back to the 1970s. B. They were started by Youth Club.
C. They are contemporary culture movements. D. They were a way for youths to express themselves.
13. What contributed to the appearance of these youth subcultures
A. The easy access to music and clothing. B. Young people’s desire for freedom and fun.
C. The political pressure young people suffered. D. Young people’s longing for fame and wealth.
14 What does the underlined word “this” in Paragraph 6 probably refer to
A. The faster and cheaper music. B. The instant and low-priced fashion.
C. The disappearance of youth subcultures. D. The availability of music and clothing.
15. Which of the following would Ruth Adams probably agree with
A. Young people are less willing to express themselves.
B. Young people are less interested in music and fashion.
C. Music and fashion develop too fast for young people to follow.
D. The Internet makes it harder to tell the young’s real personalities.
【答案】12. D 13. B 14. C 15. D
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。本文讲述了英国年轻人用“亚文化”展现自我文化现象,解释了这一现象背后的原因和影响。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中“These subcultures were traditionally a way for young people to show their personalities to others.(这些亚文化传统上是年轻人向他人展示个性的一种方式)”可知,英国青年亚文化是年轻人表达自我的一种方式。故选D。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第五段““On both sides of the Atlantic, more and more young disappointed teenagers were looking for an escape from the boredom and restrictions of society,” wrote Ian Youngs, BBC entertainment reporter. “Unemployment, racial tensions and social changes added fuel to their fires.”(英国广播公司娱乐记者伊恩 扬斯写道:“在大西洋两岸,越来越多失望的青少年寻求逃离社会的无聊和限制。失业、种族紧张关系和社会变化为他们的行为火上浇油。”)”可知,年轻人对自由和乐趣的渴望是英国年轻人群中亚文化流行的原因。故选B。
【14题详解】
词句猜测题。根据画线词上文“Youth subcultures have almost disappeared in the West.(在西方,青年亚文化几乎已经消失)”以及后文“is the instant and low-priced availability of music and clothing in the Internet age”可知,一些专家认为,造成青年亚文化的消失的原因是在互联网时代,音乐和服装可以即时且廉价地获得。故划线词this指的是“青年亚文化的消失”,故选C。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中““It’s certainly happening online, ”she said. “It’s a lot easier to use personas online just by showcasing certain types of mysterious knowledge.”(她说:“这当然发生在网上,通过展示某些类型的神秘知识,在网上使用角色扮演要容易得多。”)”可知,Ruth Adams认为网络使人们可以通过展示某些类型的神秘知识来使用网络伪装。互联网让人们更难了解年轻人的真实性格。故选D。

Practical Ways to Show Respect for a Friend
●Show respect for their life choices and decisions
Accept that people aren’t always going to be just like you. They will make different life choices, have different views on politics and religion, and act differently in many ways. This doesn’t mean they can’t be your friend. ____16____
●Give them the benefit of the doubt
____17____ If you’re in doubt about something, ask your friend. Be respectful and give them the benefit of the doubt when you don’t do. This alone will help you stay in their good graces(好感).
●Give friends your full attention
One of the best ways to show respect for someone is to listen to them fully. Allow them to pause, convey nonverbal communication clues, collect their thoughts, and get it all out. Too often friends listen with half an ear or jump in the minute their friend pauses with an even worse story. ____18____When your friend is talking, pay attention.
● ____19____
Treat your friends respectfully when you argue with them. Make your friendship a safe place by not embarrassing your friend or expressing your private disagreements in front of other people. Be publicly supportive and kind to your friends so they know you value your friendship with them.
●Show up, be there, and do what you say you’re going to do
____20____ So just show your friend the best kind of respect by being on time, keeping promises, and being the one friend they can always count on. That’s the way to truly show respect.
A. Consider your friendship a precious gift.
B. This type of behavior is very disrespectful.
C. Tell your friends what you think about them directly.
D. In fact, you can almost do nothing but accept the differences.
E. Treating your friends with suspicion(猜疑) can be a dangerous thing.
F. It means that you’ll need to take a step back, reserve judgment, and show respect.
G. No one likes an unreliable friend who says they’ll be there and then doesn’t show.

(如果你对某事有疑问,问问你的朋友。尊重他们,如果你不这么做,就先假定他们是无辜的。这将帮助你保持在他们的好感)”可知,本段建议朋友之间坦诚相待,不要相互猜测。所以选择项E“Treating your friends with suspicion(猜疑) can be a dangerous thing. (猜疑你的朋友可能是一件危险的事情)”符合上下文语境。故选E。
【18题详解】
根据前句“Too often friends listen with half an ear or jump in the minute their friend pauses with an even worse story.(朋友们常常会半耳不闻,或者在朋友说到更糟糕的故事时突然跳起来)”可知,本段建议认真听朋友讲话。在听朋友讲话时不恰当的行为是一种不尊重。所以选择项B“This type of behaviour is very disrespectful. (这种行为非常不尊重人)”符合上下文语境。故选B。

【20题详解】
根据本段小标题“Show up, be there, and do what you say you’re going to do.(现身,到场,做你说过要做的事)”并结合本段内容可知,本段建议朋友之间要信守承诺,说到做到。所以选择项G“No one likes an unreliable friend who says he'll be there and then doesn't show. (没有人会喜欢一个不可靠的朋友,他说他会去,然后又不出现)符合上下文语境。故选G。

考查时态。句意:据我们所知,全运会于2021年9月在陕西省古都西安举行。由“in September, 2021”可知,句子时态用一般过去时,空格处用过去式took。故填took。
【37题详解】
考查时态和主谓一致。句意:自西周以来,它举办了许多体育赛事,其中蹴鞠就是一个例子。由since可知,句子时态是现在完成时,主语It是单数,因此空格处是has held。故填has held。
【38题详解】
考查冠词。句意:蹴鞠是中国古代的一种竞技游戏,比赛内容是将球踢过洞口入网。game是可数名词的单数形式,且表泛指,前面需加不定冠词,ancient是元音音素开头,前面不定冠词用an,故填an。
【39题详解】
考查副词。句意:作为足球的鼻祖,蹴鞠最早出现在中国著名的历史著作《战国策》中,这本书将蹴鞠描述为一种普通大众的娱乐形式。空格处用副词originally修饰动词appeared,故填originally。
【40题详解】
考查定语从句的引导词。句意:作为足球的鼻祖,蹴鞠最早出现在中国著名的历史著作《战国策》中,这本书将蹴鞠描述为一种普通大众的娱乐形式。分析句子结构可知,空格处引导非限制性定语从句,从句中缺少主语,先行词Zhan Guo Ce是物,因此空格处用关系代词which,故填which。
【41题详解】
考查连词。句意:汉武帝刘彻酷爱蹴鞠,无论军队走到哪里,都要建立蹴鞠场。根据语境可知,前后两句是并列关系,因此空格处用表示并列的连词and,故填and。
42题详解】
考查最高级。句意:关于女子蹴鞠者的最早记载也可追溯到汉代。The后跟形容词的最高级,即earliest。故填earliest。
【43题详解】
考查with复合结构。句意:我们可以从一些绘画中看到,女性在打蹴鞠时,会挽起头发,挥动长袖。空格处是with复合结构,hair和tie之间是被动关系,因此空格处用过去分词表被动,故填tied。
【44题详解】
考查现在分词。句意:当时,蹴鞠运动使用各种技巧,主要是为了娱乐目的。分析句子结构可知,句中谓语是were used,空格处用非谓语动词,skills和serve之间是主谓关系,因此空格处用现在分词表主动,故填serving。
【45题详解】
考查名词。句意:2006年,作为国家文化保护的一种方式,蹴鞠被列为中国第一批非物质文化遗产。根据语境可知,句子表示“作为国家文化保护的一种方式,蹴鞠被列为中国第一批非物质文化遗产”,空格处用名词protection作宾语,culture protection意为“文化保护”,故填protection。

【答案】参考范文
Dear Sir or Madam,
I’m a student from China. I am writing to ask you to pay attention to the situation of the finless porpoise in the Yangtze River.
As we all know, this endangered species is native to China, which is of great value to biodiversity. Nevertheless, in recent years, the number of them has dropped sharply to only 1,000 to 1,800. We sincerely hope that more measures can be taken to protect them from dying out. The top priority is to establish more organizations specialized in protecting them. Additionally, it would be better if professional experts could offer us some practical advice. Moreover, more sponsorship is needed to offer a livable habitat. Challenging as the task is, we are bound to succeed eventually.
I would appreciate it if you could keep an eye on this issue. Looking forward to your reply!
Yours Sincerely,
Li Hua

I was lacking in everything needed to start a new friendship.
My parents moved to the town when they decided to look for new jobs but they didn’t realize I was really hurt when I said goodbye to my old friends. It felt awful to be a new student in the school and when my classmates were chatting, what I could do was to be caught up in my thoughts watching the clouds outside the window. I was not good at math or history; nor was I good at drawing or dancing. I was shy and timid. I had a few friends back at my hometown and it seemed that they were the only ones who I could be friends with for my whole life. I felt I had achieved a point of saturation with regard to having friends and I could make no further addition to my friend list. I was ashamed of myself, so I believed I deserved no notice from others until Emily came to my world.
Emily was fearless, outspoken and easy to go. She was everything I was not and I was too shy to come out of my shell. I met Emily in school almost every day and yet I never talked to her. We were in the same class but we were like poles apart. How I wished I could be like her or at least be a friend of hers!
It was another ordinary day.
I wandered to the bus stop in the morning and waited for the school bus. Birds were singing songs with their friends but who could I sing songs with I got on the bus and went straight to my usual seat, complaining in a low voice about getting up early and going to school like every other day, and about how things were going to be the same all over again. Little did I realize something different would happen that day.
Para. 1:
When I got up to get down the bus, my schoolbag was stuck in the armrest. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Para. 2:
I got noticed by Emily, who brought me courage to start a new friendship!
_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】Para. 1:
When I got up to get off the bus, my schoolbag was stuck in the armrest. I didn’t notice it and stood up with all my strength. Unfortunately, my schoolbag was torn apart and all the contents fell on the ground. I knelt down to pick them up. Suddenly, I saw a hand passing me some of the books. I looked up and found it was Emily who was helping me. With her help, I put all the contents back to my schoolbag. I began to talk with her and was surprised to find that we had much in common.
Para. 2:
I got noticed by Emily, who brought me courage to start a new friendship! One day when I told her that I admired her and how I wished to be a friend of hers, she said, “We have already been friends.” I felt so happy that I even sang a song. Hearing my song, she thought highly of it and asked me to teach her to sing it. She made me realize how unique I was and at last I came out of me shell.
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇读后续写作文。
【详解】通过阅读所给文章可知,作者跟随父母来到了一个新城镇,作为一名新生在学校的感觉很糟糕,作者很害羞,胆小,为自己感到羞愧,作者注意到了无所畏惧,直言不讳,容易相处的Emily,作者希望和她成为朋友,直到某一天一个早上发生了一些不同的事情。
续写部分分为两段,第一段开头是:当我起身下车时,我的书包被卡在扶手上了。所以后文应该是讲述作者的书包被卡住,东西掉了出来,而Emily帮助了作者,二人开始相识起来;第二段开头是:我被Emily注意到了,她给了我勇气去开始一段新的友谊!本段应该写作者和Emily的友谊进展情况。
最后还要注意所续写短文的词数应为150左右。
【点睛】本文描写详略得当,使用了高级词汇和高级句子。如:with all my strength, fall on, talk with, have much in common等高级词汇;I began to talk with her and was surprised to find that we had much in common.运用了宾语从句;One day when I told her that I admired her and how I wished to be a friend of hers, she said, “We have already been friends.”运用了时间状语从句等高级句式。
