第一节(共 15 小题,每小题 2.5 分,满分 37.5)
阅读下列短文,从每题所给的 A 、B 、C 、D 四个选项中选出最佳选项。
A
Since his students began using Quizlet, English teacher Tristan Thorne has noticed an improvement in their ability to learn and use new words. Quizlet is a learning app, a computer programme you use on your mobile phone. It can help users build and test their knowledge of English words. Quizlet has word sets for millions of
subjects. And, it is quickly becoming a useful mobile tool for language learners.
Thorne teaches at Columbia University in New York City. Thanks to learning apps, Jeff Strack, another English teacher, has also noticed improvement in his students’ ability to remember information. He teaches at Hostos Community College, also in New York. He and Thorne are part of a growing number of language educators adding mobile apps to their classes. Strack and Thorne seem to agree that the days when teachers would not permit the use of mobile phones are gone. When they use apps, language learners communicate more differently than in a
traditional classroom. Users act on or respond to something, instead of just listening to new information.
Thorne believes that apps can help learners become more active in learning. For example, each week, his students are required to add vocabulary words into Quizlet for others to use. He says some apps also make it easy
for students to know their language strengths and weaknesses.
The biggest improvement Strack has seen in his students is that they are much more active in whole-class or small-group discussions. “Apps let all students take part in the activity, whether it’s a game, quiz or practice
activity,” he says.
Many existing learning apps are designed for students of all ages and levels. Some are designed for group activities. Some support independent learning. Still some are good for homework. Thorne says he especially likes
Quizlet and three other apps: QR Codes(二维码), Socrative and Evernote.

If you are fond of learning languages, you must start learning Chinese. English is the most widely spoken language in the world and it is a more powerful language in all fields. But it is expected that Chinese, which is one of the six official languages of the United Nations (UN), will be the most important language in the coming years.
What are the reasons behind the rapid spread of this language and why should you learn it
My desire to learn languages was the reason why I studied many Latin languages and in the process, I deepened my knowledge of the languages and literature. However, I did not feel self-sufficient (自给自足的) from this knowledge. I gained a lot of information about the Western world. But my thinking was always about Asian civilizations. I always felt I needed to learn Chinese to be a global citizen because “without learning Chinese, we
see with one eye” .
My contact with many international organizations and government institutions (机构) made me believe that Chinese is one of the most important languages of our time.After visiting the world’s most celebrated capitals such as Paris and London, I discovered that Chinese language can be seen everywhere in these places. In the subway in Paris, you will hear instructions in French, English and Chinese. In London, for example, the Chinese language was
introduced for instruction in schools.
China is an important political (政治的) and economic country because it is making great economic progress that has never been seen before. The world is watching China with great surprise, and this peaceful Chinese rise
makes us decide to focus on learning the Chinese language and knowing more about Chinese culture.
To be a global citizen these days, I would advise you to learn Chinese. It will add more beauty to your life and
allow you to better understand Chinese civilization.
4 .What can we learn about languages in the future according to the first paragraph
A .Some of them will disappear.
B .More official languages will be added to the UN.
C .English will still have an advantage over others.
D .Chinese language will probably be second to none.
5 .What can be inferred from Paragraph 2 about the author
A .He realized the necessity of learning Chinese.
B .He got bored with learning Latin languages.
C .He was doing a research about Chinese language.
D .He was satisfied with his knowledge of language learning.
6 .What do the examples in Paragraph 3 show
A .Paris is a wonderful capital city worth a visit.
B .Chinese learning is very popular in schools in London.
C .People in some western countries like speaking Chinese.
D .Chinese language is playing an important role in the world.
7 .What mainly causes Westerners to start learning Chinese according to the text
A .The rise of Chinese economy.
B .Their love for language learning.
C .The long history of Chinese civilization.
D .Their curiosity about Asian culture.
C
Every 40 days a language dies. This “catastrophic” loss is being intensified by the climate crisis, according to linguists. If nothing is done, conservative estimates suggest half of all the 7000 languages currently spoken will be
extinct by the end of the century.
Speakers of minority languages have experienced a long history of persecution (迫 害), with the result that by the 1920s half of all indigenous (土著的) languages in Australia, the US, South Africa and Argentina were extinct.
The climate crisis is now considered the “final nail in the coffin” for many indigenous languages and the
knowledge they represent.
“Languages are already endangered,” says Anastasia Richl, director of the Strathy language unit at Queen’s University in Kingston, Ontario. Huge factors are globalization and migration, as communities move to regions where their language is not spoken or valued, according to Richl. “It seems particularly cruel, ” she says, “ that most of the world’s languages are in parts of the world that are growing unpleasant to people. ” Vanuatu, a South Pacific island nation measuring 12, 189 km2, has 110 languages, the highest density (密度) of languages on the planet. It is also one of the countries most at risk of sea level rise. “Many small language communities are on islands and coastlines easily subject to hurricanes and sea level rise,” she says. Others live on lands where rising
temperature threatens traditional farming and fishing practices, leading to migration.
In response to the crisis, the UN launched the International Decade of Indigenous Languages in 2022. Promoting and conserving languages of indigenous communities is “ not only important for them, but for all humanity, ” said Csaba Korosi, the UN general assembly president, urging countries to allow access to education in
indigenous languages.
8 .What does the underlined phrase “final nail in the coffin” in paragraph 2 mean
A .The last straw.
B .The last challenge.
C .The last possibility.
D .The last opportunity.
9 .Why is Vanuatu mentioned in paragraph 3
A .To explain the main reason for language density.
B .To show the common features of endangered languages.
C .To stress the impact of geographical position on migration.
D .To illustrate the situation of minority language communities.
10 .What does the International Decade of Indigenous Languages aim to do
A .Support migrants to access local education.
B .Discourage people from massive migration.
C .Improve the living conditions of minority groups.
D .Preserve the languages of indigenous communities.
11 .Which of the following is the best title for the text
A .Faced with Disasters: Communities Have to Leave
B .Lost for Words: Climate Crisis Brings Threat of Catastrophe
C .Upset at Extinction: UN Urges International Cooperation
D .Involved in Action: Experts Seek Solutions to Climate Crisis
D
Statistics show that most toddlers (刚学走路的小孩) learn how to say about 20 words by 18 months. Talking
is easy. If you ask anyone, none will remember how they started doing it, it just comes naturally.
But what might not flow as smoothly as words, is body language. It’s a whole different deal when you’re using your hands, eyes or head instead of your tongue. And what makes it even more complicated is the fact that
body language differs all around the world.
I find it shockingly amazing how just a small finger gesture could mean one thing in the East and the completely opposite in the West. For instance, in Japan bowing is the most common greeting. It shows respect and Japanese pay a lot of attention to the details like the timing, posture and movement. A bow in Japan represents sincerity, respect and graciousness. While in New Zealand Maori the pressing of noses and foreheads is the
traditional greeting. They call it “hongi”, which is regarded as the breath of life.
For most of us, nodding our head up and down often means agreement, but not for the Bulgarians or Greeks. In both cultures, nodding one’s head up and down actually means “no”. The American goodbye wave could actually be interpreted (领会) as a “no” in many parts of Europe and Latin America. And the Italian goodbye wave would be understood in America as a “come here” and the American “come here” gesture would actually be seen as
an insult (侮辱) in most of Asia.
So before you travel to explore a different culture, make sure you’re aware of accurate meanings for body language. We live in a world with many different cultures, so don’t forget how differently one hand gesture can be
interpreted!
12 .What makes body language misunderstood often
A .Its wide uses. B .Its smooth flowing.
C .Its difficulties in understanding. D .The background of different cultures.
13 .What does the pressing of noses and foreheads mean in New Zealand
A .Greeting. B .Respect. C .Tradition. D .Breath.
14 .In which country does nodding mean “no”
A .America. B .Greece. C .New Zealand. D .Japan.
15 .What can be a suitable title for the text
A .The Origin of Body Language B .The Limitation of Culture
C .Body Language Around the World D .The Culture of Maori

阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
The Oxford English Dictionary includes more than 170,000 English entries (词条). Luckily, you don ’t need to learn so many words. But as a foreign language learner, you have to learn a certain number of words to
communicate effectively. 16. The following are the most important ones.
Narrow it down. The first step is to identify what you want to focus on and set goals.17 Perhaps you want to read about soccer or learn how to cook like a native chef. The best leaners are motivated to study because
they choose vocabulary based on their interests and needs.
18 They refer to the most widely used words in any kind of speech or writing. Generally, there are four categories of words in any language: high-frequency words, academic words, technical words and low-frequency words.19. These are the words people use most in everyday writing and speech, so learning them can make you understand what you hear and respond appropriately. An online search for the phrase
“the most common words in X language ” can help you identify a list of high-frequency words to focus on.
Seek out opportunities to use new words. Learning the vocabulary involves two processes: to be able to recognize a word and to use it. We typically learn to recognize words in writing or speech before we ’re able to use them. It takes additional, concentrated practice to learn a new word.20. Such opportunities include
writing emails to and chatting with native speakers.
A .Divide words into different categories(范畴).
B .Focus on the most common words.
C .If you have a strong interest in a particular subject, start with that.
D .You will learn new words better if you speak rather than simply read them.
E .With sone strategies, you can learn faster and more easily than you have imagined.
F .High-frequency words help to quickly improve your ability to communicate.
G .That’s why it’s important to find out more chances of productive language practice.

However, if you 29 this sentence in Microsoft Word, it will tell you that the grammar needs to be

was able to communicate with her students even though they did not know much English.
A sentence she had once read somewhere stuck in her mind: if you dream in a foreign language, it means that you have really mastered it. Pat repeated this sentence to her students and she hoped that someday she would dream
in Spanish and they would dream in English.
One day, Tim, one of the worst students in her class, came up to her and explained in Spanish that he had not done his homework. He said that he had gone to bed early and had slept badly. Pat was quite angry with him, for she did not think that his explanation had anything to do with his homework. But Tim told her that he dreamed all
night and his dream was in English.
“In English! ” Pat thought. She was greatly surprised, since Tim was such a bad student. She was also
secretly jealous. Her dreams were still not in Spanish, but she decided to encourage her student and asked him to
tell her about his dream.
“All the people in my dream spoke English, ” Tim said. “And all the signs were in English. All the
newspapers and magazines and all the TV programs were in English. ”
“But that ’s wonderful, ” said Pat. “What did all the people say to you ” she asked.
“I ’m sorry, Miss Jones.That ’s why I slept so badly all through the night. I didn ’t understand a word they said. It
was a nightmare! ” Tim answered.

【导语】本文是一篇记叙文, 文章通过讲述故事介绍了“keeping up with the Joneses ”这个英文表达的来源。 36 .考查名词。句意:“keep up with The Joneses ”这个表达最早是在 1913 年由一位名叫 Arthur Momand 的 美国年轻人使用的。设空处在句中作主语, 名词 expression“词语, 表达方式 ”符合句意, 且此处特指“keep
up with The Joneses”这一表达。故填 expression。
37 .考查非限制性定语从句。句意:他从 23 岁开始每周挣 125 美元, 这在当时是一大笔钱。句子分析可知, “ 2 was a lot of money in those days ”为非限制性定语从句, 设空处指代先行词“$125 ”在从句中作主
语,先行词指物,此从句用关系代词 which 引导。故填 which。
38 .考查形容词。句意:他和妻子搬到了纽约市外一个非常富裕的社区。设空处在句中作定语,修饰名词
neighborhood,所给词 wealth 的形容词 wealthy“富有的,富裕的”符合句意。故填 wealthy。
39 .考查非谓语动词。句意:当 Momand 看到有钱人都骑马时,他每天都去骑马。固定搭配 go doing“去干
某事”符合句意,设空处应填 ride 的-ing 形式 riding。故填 riding。
40 .考查名词复数。句意:当他看到富人都有仆人时, Momand 也雇了一个仆人并为他们的新邻居举行盛大 的聚会。party 为可数名词,空前的“gave big ”无冠词,因此设空处应填 party 的复数形式 parties,表泛指。
故填 parties。
41 .考查并列连词。句意:这就像一场赛跑,但当他们无力支付新的生活方式时,这场比赛就结束了。句 子分析可知, 设空处应填连词, 上文“It was like a race ”与下文“the race ended when they could no longer pay
for their new way of life”之间为转折关系,应用连词 but“但是”符合句意。故填 but。
42 .考查不定冠词。句意:他们搬回了纽约市的一套公寓。apartment 为可数名词,句中“ 7
apartment ”指“一套公寓 ”表泛指, 用不定冠词, 空后 apartment 起始音为元音音素, 设空处应填 an。故填
an 。
43 .考查不定式。句意:Momand 环顾四周,注意到许多人尽其所能地追赶邻居们富裕的生活方式。句子分 析可知,“ 8 (keep) up with the rich lifestyle of their neighbors”在句中作目的状语,设空处填动词 keep
的不定式 to keep。故填 to keep。
44 .考查时态。句意:这些故事卖得很好,渐渐地“keeping up with the Joneses ”成了许多人常用的习语。 设空处在句中作谓语动词,由空后的“became an idiom 10 (common) used by many people ”可知此 句讲述过去的故事,用一般过去时态,“畅销,卖得好 ”用 sell well 表达,设空处填 sell 的过去式 sold。故
填 sold。
45 .考查副词。句意:这些故事卖得很好,渐渐地“keeping up with the Joneses ”成了许多人常用的习语。 设空处在句中修饰过去分词 used 作状语,设空处应填所给词 common 的副词 commonly。故填 commonly。

47 .Paragraph 1:
After hearing the boy ’s words, Pat, the English teacher, began to shake her belief in the sentence stuck in her mind. Her jealousy had all gone. Staring into the boy ’s eyes, Pat sensed something wrong hidden there. Obviously,
the boy was telling a lie. Seeing the negative effect his behaviour would have on her students, Pat decided to teach
the boy a lesson.Though she knew only a little Spanish, she decided to scold him using the language.
Paragraph 2:
In order to inspire her students to speak English, Pat arranged for several people in the secondary school to have weekly talks, their topics ranging from travelling around the world to language learning methods. After several weeks, many of her students came running to her, telling her that they finally dreamed in English.This time, instead of being jealous, Pat felt proud of them, saying that she would also try her best to learn Spanish so that one day she
would also dream in Spanish.
