B.accept C.support D.double【正确答案】C【详解】句意：——我想参加学校跑步比赛，但我有点紧张。——别担心。我们所有人都会支持你。尽你最大努力！provide提供；accept接受；support支持；double加倍。根据“Don’tworry.”和“Justdoyourbest!”可知，说话人在鼓励对方，当对方因比赛紧张时，表示大家会“支持”他符合语境。2.—Afterayearofartclasses,Tombecamevery________.—Yes,hispaintingsarequitespecialnow.A.clever B.creative C.active D.crazy【正确答案】B【详解】句意：——经过一年的美术课，汤姆变得非常有创造力。——是的，他的画现在很特别。clever聪明的；creative有创造力的；active活跃的；crazy疯狂的。根据“Afterayearofartclasses”和“hispaintingsarequitespecialnow”可知，经过美术学习后画作特别，推测出他变得有创造力了。故选B。3.—Howoftendoyougotothelibrary?—I________gotherebecauseIpreferreadingathome.A.always B.often C.usually D.seldom【正确答案】D【详解】句意：——你多久去一次图书馆？——我很少去那里，因为我更喜欢在家阅读。always总是；often经常；usually通常；seldom很少。根据“becauseIpreferreadingathome”可知，去图书馆的频率很低，seldom符合语境。4.—EveryonesaysJennyhasagreat________forlearninglanguages.—That’strue.Shecanspeakthreelanguageswell.A.ability B.chance C.habit D.decision【正确答案】A【详解】句意：——大家都说珍妮在学习语言方面有很大的能力。——那是真的。她能说得好三种语言。ability能力；chance机会；habit习惯；decision决定。根据答语“Shecanspeakthreelanguageswell.”可知她能说得好三种语言，说明她在学习语言方面有能力。应填ability。5.—I’msorryIforgottobringyourbooktoyou.CanIbringit________time?—Sure,nohurry.A.other B.another C.either D.any【正确答案】B【详解】句意：——对不起，我忘了把你的书带给你了。我能另找时间带来吗？——当然，不急。other其他的；another另一个，再一个；either两者中的任何一个；any任何。根据语境可知，这次忘了带书，询问是否可以改在另一个时间带来。anothertime意为“另一次，下次”，符合题意。6.—Iheardthatyoursister________awell-paidjobinthecity.Isthatso?—Yes.Shelikeschildrenanddecidestobeateacherinthevillage.A.turneddown B.gotdown C.tookup D.madeup【正确答案】A【详解】句意：——我听说你姐姐拒绝了一份城里的高薪工作。是这样吗？——是的。她喜欢孩子，决定在村里当老师。turneddown拒绝；gotdown下来；tookup开始从事；madeup编造。根据答语“她喜欢孩子，决定在村里当老师”可知，她拒绝了城里的高薪工作，turneddown符合语境。7.—Youdidagreatjobintheartfestival.Everyonelikesyourpainting.—Thankyou!AndMr.Lee________meinfrontofthewholeclassthismorning.Ifeelhappynow.A.praises B.waspraising C.praised D.willpraise【正确答案】C【详解】句意：——你在艺术节上做得很棒。每个人都喜欢你的画。——谢谢！李老师今天早上在全班面前表扬了我。我现在感觉很开心。句中的时间状语“thismorning”是过去的时间标志，说明“表扬”这个动作已经发生，需要用一般过去时，过去式praised符合语境。8.—Youwon’tpasstheexam________youstudyharder.—Iknow.I’llstarttoday.A.if B.when C.because D.unless【正确答案】D【详解】句意：——除非你更努力学习，否则你不会通过考试。——我知道。我今天就开始。if如果；when当……时候；because因为；unless除非。根据“Youwon’tpasstheexam...youstudyharder”及答语可知，句子表达的是“如果不更努力就不会通过考试”，unless意为“除非”，引导条件状语从句，符合语境。9.—Whydidourteamgetalowerscorethantheirs?—Becauseourproject________withthebestoneintheclasslastweek,andourshadsomemistakes.A.compared B.wascompared C.iscompared D.willcompare【正确答案】B【详解】句意：——为什么我们队的得分比他们队低？——因为上周我们的项目被拿来与班上最好的项目进行了比较，而且我们的项目有一些错误。时间状语“lastweek”提示，时态是一般过去时，主语“ourproject”为单数，且与compare之间为被动关系。强调我们的项目被拿来与班上最好的项目进行比较，故用一般过去时的被动语态wascompared。10.—Whichmovieshouldwewatch,thecomedyorthecartoon?—________.Youarethebosstoday.A.It’suptoyou B.Thatsoundsbad C.Idon’tmindit D.Ihavenoidea【正确答案】A【详解】句意：——我们应该看哪部电影，喜剧片还是卡通片？——由你决定。今天你说了算。It’suptoyou由你决定；Thatsoundsbad那听起来很糟糕；Idon’tmindit我不介意；Ihavenoidea我不知道。根据“Youarethebosstoday.”可知，说话人示意对方做决定，选项A符合语境。Ⅵ．完形填空（共20小题；每小题1分，满分20分）阅读下列短文，从每小题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出一个最佳选项。ADeepintheforest,therelivedarabbitnamedBun.Hislifewaspeaceful____11____alivelycricket(蟋蟀)namedJumpymovedinrightnextdoor.Everynight,Jumpy’sloudsound____12____Bun.Buncouldn’tstanditanymoreandcameupwithaplan.WhileJumpywassleeping,Bunquietlyputsomesticky(粘稠的)juiceoverhis____13____.Atnight,whenBunwenttosleep,thesoundwasstillasloudasbefore!Feeling____14____,Bungotupandlookedthroughtheleaves.Jumpy’smouthwasstuckshut,buthewasrubbing(摩擦)hiswingstogether.Itturnedoutthatcricketsdon’t____15____withtheirmouths!Bunfeltangryandshouted,“Yourloudnoiseis____16____mysleep,Jumpy.Goawayatonce!”Lookingsurprisedand____17____,poorJumpyslowlyjumpedaway.Bunthoughthewouldhaveagoodsleepthatnight,buthefeltlonelyandemptyinthesilentforest.He____18____Jumpy’ssound.Thenextmorning,BunfoundJumpyandsaid,“I’msorry,Jumpy.Canyoucomeback?”Jumpynoddedhappilyandreplied,“I’llplaymywing-music____19____sothatitwon’tmessupyoursleep.”Fromthatdayon,BunandJumpybecamebestfriends.Theylearnedthattrue____20____comesfromunderstandingandrespect.11.A.while

D.courage【正确答案】11.C12.B13.A14.D15.B16.D17.A18.B19.D20.C【导语】本文主要讲述了小兔子Bun和小蟋蟀Jumpy由矛盾转化为朋友的故事。【11题详解】句意：他的生活平静直到一只名叫Jumpy的活泼蟋蟀搬进隔壁。兔子Bun的生活一直很平静，直到活泼的蟋蟀Jumpy搬来隔壁，until“直到”，引导时间状语从句，符合语境。while“当……时”、since“自从”、though“虽然”都不符合。【12题详解】句意：每天晚上，Jumpy响亮的声音都会吵醒Bun。每天晚上Jumpy的响声都会吵醒Bun，后文说Bun无法忍受，wokeup“吵醒”符合语境。thoughtof“想到”、worriedabout“担心”、searchedfor“寻找”都不符合。【13题详解】句意：Jumpy睡觉的时候，Bun悄悄地在他嘴上涂了一些粘稠的果汁。Bun误以为蟋蟀是用嘴发声，所以趁Jumpy睡觉时把粘汁涂在它嘴上，后文也明确提到“Jumpy’smouthwasstuckshut”，mouth“嘴”符合语境。nose“鼻子”、throat“喉咙”、stomach“胃”都不符合。【14题详解】句意：感到震惊，Bun起身透过叶子查看。Bun本以为粘住嘴就不会有声音了，结果声音还是和之前一样大，意料之外的情况让他很震惊，shocked“震惊的”符合心情。excited“兴奋的”、relaxed“放松的”、scared“害怕的”都不符合。【15题详解】句意：原来蟋蟀不是用嘴唱歌的！结果发现蟋蟀根本不用嘴发声唱歌，这里对应蟋蟀发出声响，选sing“唱歌”。move“移动”、hang“悬挂”、hide“隐藏”都不符合语境。【16题详解】句意：你那吵闹的声音影响了我的睡眠，Jumpy。Jumpy的噪音影响Bun睡觉，Bun感到很生气，influencing“影响”符合句意。checking“检查”、proving“证明”、discovering“发现”都不符合。【17题详解】句意：Jumpy看起来既惊讶又难过，可怜的Jumpy慢慢地跳走了。Jumpy被Bun赶走，心情是惊讶又难过，sad“难过的”符合语境。sleepy“困倦的”、weak“虚弱的”、calm“冷静的”都不符合。【18题详解】句意：他想念Jumpy的声音。Jumpy离开后，Bun在安静的森林里感到孤单空虚，开始想念Jumpy的声音，missed“想念”符合逻辑。changed“改变”、improved“改善”、trusted“信任”都不符合。【19题详解】句意：我会轻柔地演奏翅膀音乐以便不打扰你睡眠。Jumpy同意回来后，承诺会轻轻发声，这样就不会打扰Bun睡觉，softly“轻柔地”符合语境。loudly“大声地”、easily“容易地”、quickly“快速地”都不符合。【20题详解】句意：他们认识到真正的友谊来自理解和尊重。前文提到两人最后成为了最好的朋友，结尾点明主旨：真正的友谊来自理解和尊重，friendship“友谊”符合语境。spirit“精神”、value“价值”、courage“勇气”都不符合。BEveryonefeelsboredsometimes,butboredomisn’talwaysaproblem.Expertssayitcanactuallybe____21____children.Whenthere’snothingtodo,achildmayfeellostatfirst,butsoontheirbrainstartstoworkinanewway.Thisquiettimehelpsthemstopand____22____.Whenchildrenfeelbored,their____23____startlookingforsomethinginteresting.Thiscanhelpthembecomemore____24____andcurious.Aboredchildmightthinkofagame,drawapicture,buildsomething,orstartaskingquestionsabouttheworld.Theybegintousetheirimagination.Inotherwords,boredomgivesthemthe____25____toexploreideasontheirown,withoutbeingtoldhow.Boredomalsohelpschildren____26____lifeskills.Planning,managingtime,andmanagingfeelingsareimportantskillsindailylife.Butchildrendon’tlearntheseskillswhenthey’realwayskept____27____withfunthings.Theyneedtimewithnothingplanned.Whenkidsarebored,theybegintomaketheirowndecisionsandpractice____28____theirfeelings.Thiskindoffreetimehelpstheirbrainsgrow.Boredomdoesn’tneedtolastlongtobehelpful,andevenafewminuteswithoutscreensorplanscanmakeadifference.Achildwhosits____29____forashorttimemaycomeupwithagoodidea.Thesemomentsofboredomcan____30____bigchangesinhowachildthinksandfeels.21.A.tiredof

D.bringout【正确答案】21.C22.C23.B24.D25.A26.C27.B28.B29.A30.D【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要阐述了无聊对孩子并非坏事，反而能激发创造力、培养生活技能并促进大脑成长，建议给孩子留白。【21题详解】句意：专家说它实际上可能对孩子有益。根据“butboredomisn’talwaysaproblem”但无聊并不总是会成为问题，可知此处表积极意义。goodfor对……有益，符合语境。tiredof厌倦、strictwith对……严格和badfor对……有害含消极或无关意义。【22题详解】句意：这段安静时间帮助他们停下来思考。根据“theirbrainstartstoworkinanewway”，可知他们的大脑开始以一种新的方式运转起来，有助于他们停下来和思考。think思考，符合逻辑，play玩、work工作和rest休息均不符合大脑的工作方式。【23题详解】句意：当孩子感到无聊时，他们的头脑开始寻找有趣的东西。根据“lookingforsomethinginteresting”及后文想象力，可知是思维活动。minds头脑，符合逻辑。stories故事、feelings感觉和actions行动均不是思维主体。【24题详解】句意：这能帮助他们变得更有创造力和好奇心。根据“usetheirimagination”，可知想象力对应创造力。creative有创造力的符合逻辑，honest诚实的、patient耐心的和popular流行的均与想象力无直接关联。【25题详解】句意：无聊给他们空间去独自探索想法。根据“exploreideasontheirown”，可知需要探索的余地。ce空间符合语境，purpose目的、money钱和food食物与探索想法无关。【26题详解】句意：无聊也帮助孩子培养生活技能。根据“lifeskills”及后文学习过程，可知是培养技能，对应表达为developskills。develop培养符合搭配，realize意识到、achieve实现和master掌握均语意不通。【27题详解】句意：但当他们总是忙于有趣的事情时，学不到这些技能。根据“alwayskept…withfunthings”及对比“nothingplanned”，可知是忙碌。busy忙碌的符合，basic基本的、careful小心的和covered覆盖不符合语境。【28题详解】句意：他们开始自己做决定和练习控制他们的感情。根据“managingfeelings”，可知manage对应control。controlling控制符合同义替换，creating创造、canceling取消和spreading传播意思不符。【29题详解】句意：一个安静坐一会儿的孩子可能会想出一个好主意。根据“withoutscreensorplans”及前文“quiettime”，可知是安静。quietly安静地符合，happily快乐地、wisely明智地和clearly清楚地未体现安静状态。【30题详解】句意：这些无聊时刻能引出孩子思维和感受的巨大变化。根据“makeadifference”及语境，可知是带来变化。bringout引出符合，putoff推迟、takein吸收和giveup放弃意思相反或无关。Ⅶ．补全对话（共5小题；每小题1分，满分5分）根据对话内容，从选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，其中有两个为多余选项。A:Tom,whatareyoulookingat?Itseemsinteresting.B:It’sanadforanewAItoy.Thetoyisreallypopularwithkidsrightnow.A:____31____B:Itcantellstories,singsongs,andchatwithkids.Itcanevengiveadviceonsomeproblems.A:Soundscool!____32____B:Why?A:I’mworriedthesetoysmaycollectkids’information.____33____B:Ineverthoughtabouttherisks.ShouldweavoidAItoys?A:Notcompletely.____34____B:Likewhat?A:Weshouldneversharepersonalinformation.____35____B:That’sagoodpoint.Bettersafethansorry.A.Wecansetclearrules.B.Whatexactlycanitdo?C.Howmuchdoesitcost?D.ButI’malittleworriedabouttheseAItoys.E.Besides,thetoysmightgiveharmfuladvice.F.IalwaysturnoffAItoyswhenIdon’tusethem.G.Forexample,realnamesandaddressesshouldbeavoided.【正确答案】31.B32.D33.E34.A35.G【导语】Tom和朋友讨论一款流行的AI玩具，介绍其功能后，朋友表达了对隐私和安全风险的担忧，两人最后达成共识：不必完全避免，但要制定规则、保护个人信息。【31题详解】根据下文B的回答“Itcantellstories,singsongs...”可知它可以讲故事、唱歌，这是在介绍玩具的功能。因此上文A应该询问玩具具体能做什么，选项B“具体能够做什么”符合语境。【32题详解】上文A说“Soundscool!”表示听起来很酷，下文B问为什么，接着A解释说自己担心玩具收集信息。由此推断此处A转折表达了担忧之情，选项D“我有点担心这些AI玩具”符合逻辑。【33题详解】上文A提到了收集信息的风险，此处关键词Besides（此外）表明要补充另一个风险。选项E“此外，玩具可能会给出有害的建议”与下文B提到的risks（风险）相呼应。【34题详解】上文B问是否应该避免使用AI玩具，A回答“Notcompletely”表示不完全如此，暗示有解决办法。下文B问“Likewhat?”，选项A“我们可以制定明确的规则”符合语境，说明A提出了具体的措施。【35题详解】上文A提到“Weshouldneversharepersonalinformation.”表示我们永远不应该分享个人信息，此处应举例说明什么是个人信息。选项G“例如，应避免使用真实姓名和地址”是对上文的具体举例说明。第三部分阅读理解（共两节，满分40分）Ⅷ．阅读理解（共20小题；每小题2分，满分40分）第一节阅读下列短文，从每小题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出一个最佳选项。AAreyouwonderingwhatexcitingandhelpfulactivitiesarehappeningatourschoolthisterm?Let’sfindout!Paper-cuttingClassDoyoulovetraditionalChineseart?Joinourpaper-cuttingclass!Afolkartistwillshareherstoriesandteachyouhowtocutoutacuterabbit.Comeandhaveatry!Time:3:30pm～5:00pm,May24SharingMeetingWanttobecomeabetterlearner?CometotheSharingMeeting!Threestudentswillsharetheirstudytipswithyou.You’lllearnhowtotakebetternotes,useyourtimewisely,andprepareforexamsmoreefficiently(有效地).Time:2:30pm～3:30pm,June8EarthquakeDrill(演习)Doyouknowwhattodowhenanearthquakehits?Comeandfindout!We’llwatchashortvideointheclassroomtolearnwhyearthquakeshappenandhowtostaysafe.Then,getreadyforanearthquakedrill.Beprepared,notscared!Time:4:00pm～5:30pm,June29PocketMoneyLectureDoesyourpocketmoneyalwaysrunoutfast?Jointhislecture!Afamouseducatorwillsharesmartwaystoplanabudgetanduseyourmoneywisely.Comeandlearnhowtosaveforsomethingyoureallywant.Makeyourmoneyworkforyou!Time:7:00pm～8:00pm,July1036.Whencanstudentslearnusefulstudyskills?A.OnMay24.
