5、ph 1: Feeling his high chance of landing the job, when he went back home, the youth happily requested his mother to let him clean her hands. His mother felt strange but with mixed feelings, she showed her hands to the kid. It was the first time he had noticed that there were so many bruises in her h

6、ands. His tears fell as he cleaned her hands. This was the first time he had realized that it was the bruises in the mothers hands that were the price that the mother had to pay for his graduation, academic excellence and his future. After finishing the cleaning of his mothers hands, the youth quiet

7、ly washed all the remaining clothes for his mother. That night, mother and son talked for a very long time. The next morning, the youth went to the directors office. (121 words)Paragraph 2: The director noticed the tears in the youths eyes and asked, “What have you done and learned, young man?” The

8、youth answered, “I cleaned my mothers hand, and also finished cleaning all the remaining clothes.” The director nodded, “Please tell me your feelings.” The youth said, “Firstly, I know now what appreciation is. Without my mother, there would not be the successful me today. Additionally, by working t

9、ogether and helping my mother, I now realize how difficult and tough it is to get something done. Ultimately, I have learned to appreciate the importance and value of family relationship.” The director smiled, “This is what I am looking for to be my manager. You are hired. Congratulations!” (107 wor

10、ds) 答案详解21. D 本题的关键词是 “powertrain guarantee”, 文中对2022 Hyundai Tucson的介绍中有“And its powered by a zippy yet economical four-cylinder engine. Its also backed by a 10-year/100,000-mile powertrain warranty.”可得出答案。但不要看错年份而错选A选项。22. A 根据文中对SUV的介绍中的 “Features & Specs”，可得出答案，其他三个选项都犯了张冠李戴的错误。23. B 本题的关键词是“mai

11、n purpose of this passage”, 根据本文的文体特征可得出答案。A选项是内容。24. B 根据第三段中“Most of you no doubt have seen these tugs pushing and pulling at the big liners. What they are doing doesnt seem to make much sense at first”可推知答案。“humble”在此的意思是“不起眼的，不重要的”。25. D 本题就“写作目的”出题。A选项是“为了进行详细描述”；B选项是 “为了展示其特征”；C选项是 “为了作比较”；D选项

12、是 “为了帮助揭示主题”。第四段通过详细描述来帮忙揭示文章的主题。26. B 根据文章最后一段“Working around tugboats has had its effect on what I believe. The great transatlantic liners depend on the help of the little tugs to bring them safely to port, and it is with ones success.”可得知答案。27. D 本题考查标题的选择。作者通过描写拖船的工作来揭示人生的道理。B项的Teamwork未包含tugboa

13、ts与liner的成功之间的关系，而且不够eye-catching；C项的workings指的是工作方式；故答案是D。 28. C 根据文中“On Nov 26, lawmakers in Beijing passed the citys modified family planning and population regulations. One of the highlights was that maternity leave (产假) would be extended by 30 days.”可知是因为产假的延长，让她有更多时间照顾孩子。B选项中“increased to”错误。2

14、9. A 根据文中“After the adoption of the third-child policy in August, the extra measures were rolled out as part of moves to ease the burden of having a newborn and also to encourage families to have more children.”可得出答案。30. B 根据文中“Song Tianjiao, who is looking for a job in Beijing, said she was asked a

15、bout her status of marriage and childbearing plans at several job interviews. In one extreme case, she was asked to guarantee that she would not get pregnant for two years after starting the job.”可得出答案。31. B 根据最后一段“and the current dilemma is that the costs of favorable fertility policies are shoulde

16、red almost totally by employers.”可推知“给雇主制定免税政策”是可能的措施。32. A 根据文章第一段“Chinese television maker Skyworth Group is strengthening efforts to venture into the 5G-powered 8K ultra-high definition TV section, especially the whole industrial chain related to the top-notch 8K technology, as it aims to grab a

17、bigger slice of the countrys high-end TV market.”可得出答案。A选项中“tap into 8K technology”的意思是“to manage to use something in a way that brings good results”。33. C 词义猜测题。根据文中“ adding that Skyworth will intensify research and development efforts in 8K chips to improve the clarity, contrast and brightness of

18、images.”可得出答案immature（未成熟的、粗糙的）。文中没有关于技术遇到瓶颈的描述，所以不能选A选项。34. D D选项的错误是把5G和8K TV的关系颠倒了。draw on的意思是“凭借，利用”。35. C 根据文章最后一段“8K has created many opportunities. The broadcasting of sporting events via 8K equipment has also motivated people to demand high-definition image quality”可得出答案。【语篇导读】体裁：说明文 题材：介绍说明

19、 主题：如何正确处理来自他人的评价本文就如何正确处理来自他人对自己的评价给出了几点建议，包括：客观看待评价，不要认为其是针对你个人的行为；尝试理解与共情他人为何会如此评价自己；请求他人进一步说明评价的原因，准确理解他人所言之意；冷静地对待评价并理性地做出回应。36. C 关键逻辑法解题。根据下文 “But you can cope with their criticism using positivity and sympathy”可知，虽然应对别人对你的评价很难，你也无法避免有些人对你做评价，但是你可以用某些方式积极地对待这些批评。C项从段落主题、句间逻辑关系以及上下文语意承接上都是恰当的，

20、故选C项。 37. B 设题位置法解题。根据设空位置得出此题是段落主题句（小标题）。由该段落可知本段落主要讲不要把他人的评价认为是针对个人的行为，不要因为他人的评价否定自己的优点，因为这些评价都是他人的想法，而非自己的自我认知。B项意为“将评价与自身分开看待”，符合该段落大意。故选B项。38. D 设题位置法解题。根据设空位置得出此题是段落首句（即段落主题句）。小标题意为“要有同情心”，结合该段落其他内容，即要理解他人为何对自己有此评价，并向他们表示同情。D项 “Try to understand the source of this persons judgement”（尝试理解某人评价的来

21、源，即他们为何会这样做）”中的“the source”与后面“It could be that.”中的“It”在内容上相呼应。故选D项。39. G 设题位置法解题。根绝设空位置前后文得知，当收到他人评价时，可以要求他人解释评价的内容以及为何这样说。有些人可能没有意识到自己说法方式的不妥，好心办了坏事。为了避免这样的误会，准确理解他人的意图和想法，我们需要ask for clarification。G项意为“有些人想要帮忙，有好的意图但可能结果听起来具有攻击性，批评的意味”，与前后文内容上相呼应，故选G项。因为此段的内容并未涉及批判性言论对自己的影响，至涉及澄清说话的意图，所以不能因为F选项中有

22、“Explain why .”的文字而错选。40. A 关键逻辑法解题。该段落小标题意为“保持冷静，理性回应”。段落首句“被评价绝不是有趣的事情，感到受伤和有情绪是很自然的”，A项意为“所以你应该使自己保持冷静”，与前文句子在逻辑上形成因果关系，选项中“stay collected（保持冷静）”与小标题中“calm down”相呼应，故选A项。而且，这段文字中没有涉及“learning”的内容，所以不能选择E选项。【语篇导读】新闻报道。主题语境是人与社会。文章主要讲述了2022年北京冬奥会吉祥物冰墩墩的设计理念以及其背后的设计团队的故事。41. D 【解析】考察动词。冰墩墩的面部是被一个彩色光

23、环围绕着，be surrounded by意为“被.围绕”，carve 雕刻，paint绘画，decorate装饰（be decorated with）一般搭配介词with（而by后面一般接的是动作的执行者），原文中介词by可与surround搭配。故选D。 42. B【解析】考察名词。冰墩墩身上包裹着一层明显的壳儿，使之不受严寒的侵袭。cold在此处意为名词“寒冷”，后文提到此设计灵感来自于冬奥会比赛中选手带头盔（头盔作用可能是防止受伤，抵御寒冷之类，但不太可能是为了防风、防雨或防热），结合生活常识，可知B项cold最为恰当。43. C【解析】考察动词。冰墩墩外面的壳儿灵感来自于运动员戴的头

24、盔，C项inspire意为“赋予灵感”，其他选项如encourage鼓励/challenge挑战/motivate激励不符合原意。故选C项。44. A【解析】考察形容词。原句意为“这个能让人心融化的吉祥物现在有大量的粉丝基础”，意指冰墩墩很受欢迎，massive fan base意为“大量的粉丝”，其他选项如limited有限的/royal皇室的/popular流行的不符合原意。故选A项。45. C【解析】考察动词。首席设计师曹云“透露/表明”到冰墩墩的设计项目是由一支年轻的团队完成的。reveal意为“揭露/表明/透露”，其他选项如believe相信/guarantee保证/cover报道与

25、原文意思不符。故选C项。46. B【解析】考察动词。rephrase改述/revise修改/review复习评论/reprogram重编程序，原句意为“设计团队前往北京20余次，修改设计方案1000余次”，表明设计过程非常的复杂辛苦。故选B项。47. A【解析】考察名词。process“过程”，preparation“准备”，progress“进展、进步”，purpose“目的”，原句意为“创造吉祥物的过程与其说是为国家作贡献，倒更像是交一次学术作业”。C项process符合原文意思，故选A项。48. D【解析】考察名词。attachment“附着”，appointment“约定、会面”，ac

26、hievement“成就”，assignment“任务、作业”，academic assignment意为“学术作业”，符合原意。而且achievement无法与process的语义相呼应，故选D项。49. C【解析】考察形容词。原句意为“曹云认为，冰墩墩的走红并不是无目的的头脑风暴，而是基于理论和战略的思考”，意即团队在设计吉祥物时是有根据的，是按一定原则（规律）的，并不是无目的的天马行空的瞎想。careless“马虎/不小心的”，meaningless“无意义的”，fruitless“徒劳的、不结果实的”均不符合原意。故选C项。50. B【解析】考察形容词。原文意为“在审美背后有一些基本原

27、则，其中之一就是对比与统一”。ordinary“普通的、平凡的”special“特别的”rare“罕见的、稀少的”均不符合原文意思，故选B项。51. C【解析】考察动词。于设计师曹云而言，将冰墩墩面世的那一天是特殊的一天，他仍然记忆犹新 “He still remembers on the day when .”符合原意。agree“同意”imagine“想象”recall“回忆”均不符合原文意思，故选C项。52. B【解析】考察动词短语。冰墩墩面世的那天，曹云忍不住欢喜但又哽咽，出不了声。get choked up意为“哽咽”，与后文wordlessly相呼应。其他词组get eased u

28、p“得到缓解/放松”get tensed up “紧张起来”get fired up“变得愤怒”均与原意不符，故选B项。 53. A【解析】考察名词。当曹云看到自己的创作作品呈现在大屏幕上时，于冰墩墩而言，这是他以及团队的创作，而非invention“发明”commitment“承诺/义务”promise“承诺”。故选A项。54. D【解析】考察副词。根据上下文逻辑关系，此处应为转折关系。对于曹云以及团队而言，自己的作品有幸成为奥运会的吉祥物实属荣耀之至。但是（然而），起点太高可能不是一件好事，因为掌声有时会导致我们“耳聋”，听不到正确的声音。其他选项如instead“相反，反而”，强调的是前

29、后动作相反（对比），如 “He didnt reply. Instead, he turned on his heel and left the room.”。therefore强调因果，otherwise“否则/不然”，强调条件，均不符合原意。故选D项。55. A【解析】考察名词。原文大意为“起点太高可能不是好事，因为周围的掌声会让我们迷失自我，听不到周围的声音”，applause会导致deafness（抽象意义），但不会导致blindness/dumbness/insensibility，故选A项。【语篇导读】新闻报道。主题为中国气候变化事务特使解振华与美国总统气候问题特使约翰克里于202

30、1年4月15-16日在上海举行会谈，讨论气候危机所涉问题。56. be addressed 【解析】考察谓语动词被动语态，which指代前文中的climate crisis，与address为动宾关系，而且must之后需要使用动词原形，故答案为be addressed。57. that/ which【解析】考察定语从句, 先行词为urgency, 在从句中做宾语, 故答案为that或者which。58. enhancing【解析】考察非谓语动词, 作谓语动词includes的宾语, 而且形式需要与后面的“and cooperating”一致，故答案为enhancing。59. historic

31、【解析】考察形容词, 修饰后文的contribution, 但语意为“历史性/重大的”贡献，而不是“历史有关的/历史学的（historical）”，故答案为historic。60. is【解析】考察谓语动词，each government主语为单数且陈述客观事实，而且整篇文章的时态基调都为一般现在时，故答案为is。61. with 【解析】考察固定搭配，in accordance with意为“按照，依据，与.一致”，后面一般接的是正式的法律条款，故答案为with。而in accordance to是错误或不规范写法，规范写法为according to“根据”，后面接的是信息来源。62. to

32、 pursue【解析】考察非谓语动词，根据句意，to hold.and to pursue.两个不定式并列在句中作目的状语，而且如果只填动词原形则将会破坏原文含义（将会与increase并列），故答案为完整的不定式形式to pursue。63. related【解析】考察非谓语动词，根据后文challenges and opportunities可知此空需填定语“相关的，有关的”，但不能写成“relative（相比较而言的、相对的）”，故答案为related。64. the【解析】考察冠词，含有或由普通名词构成的专有名词前需用定冠词, 故答案为the。65. their【解析】考察代词，根据后

33、文common goal可知需填形容词性物主代词, 故答案为their。第四部分 写作 (共两节，满分40分)第一节 (满分15分)Possible version: Dear Mason,Happy the Year of the Tiger!

46、感受，衔接第二段首句中的问题“What have you done and learned?”（但这个部分要简略抽象一些，不能完全重复首段的相关内容），中间需要解释主管之所以要求优等生帮妈妈洗手的目的，最后还要呼应前面求职的伏笔，明确优等生被主管正式录用的情节。另，所给范文词数较多，主要是想给大家提供更多可以参考和借鉴的细节。评分参考阅卷时主要考虑以下内容：1. 与所给短文及段落开头语的衔接程度；2. 内容的丰富性（细节描写：外貌、心理、语言、动作、表情、环境)；3. 语法结构和词汇的丰富性和准确性；4. 上下文的连贯性（注意与前文内容以及所给出句子的上下文连贯）。注意：1. 所续写短文的词数

48、与原文情境融合度较高；使用了比较恰当的词汇和语法结构，表达比较流畅，但方式不够多样，表达有些许错误，但不影响理解；较为有效地使用了语句间衔接手段，全文结构比较较清晰，意义较为连贯。第三档（11-15分）创造了基本完整的故事内容，但有的情节不够合理或逻辑性不强，与原文情境基本相关；使用了简单的词汇和语法结构，有部分语言错误和不恰当之处，个别部分影响理解；尚有语句衔接的意识，全文结构基本清晰，意思基本连贯。第二档（6-10分）内容和逻辑上有一些重大问题，续写不够完整，与原文有一定程度脱节；所用的词汇有限，语法结构单调，错误较多且比较低级，影响理解；未能有效地使用语句间衔接手段，全文结构不够清晰，意

49、义欠连贯。第一档（1-5分）内容和逻辑上有较多重大问题，或有部分内容抄自原文，续写不完整，与原文情境基本脱节；所使用的词汇非常有限，语法结构单调，错误极多，严重影响理解；几乎没有使用语句间衔接手段，全文结构不清晰，意义不连贯。0分未作答：所写内容太少或无法看清以致无法评判；所写内容全部抄自原文或与题目要求完全不相关。听力原文第一节Text 1M: Does Lucy still play the violin?W: Yes.
