The word “Yongfeng” in Chinese means forever wealth. It is also the name of a village in
Jilin Province. Growing up in Yongfeng Village, 23-year-old Jin Wanting valued fun days
playing games in the fields and missed sweet potatoes in winter. These joyful childhood
moments became her happiest memories. She thinks it is a valuable ground that connects her
past with future.
While in college, Jin learned computer science and planned to be a programmer. However,
an invitation from the village officer changed her mind. “The village is developing, and it
needs skilled young people. I considered returning to the village as a great chance to both
challenge myself and contribute (做贡献) to my hometown,” she said.
Jin returned to Yongfeng Village and became the manager of a Western-style restaurant
there. Before Jin joined the restaurant, most of its customers were young tourists because
older people usually prefer traditional Chinese food. To change this situation, Jin and the
cooks carefully developed several fast food by connecting Western elements with Chinese
materials. These dishes quickly got popular among older customers.
In 2017, Yongfeng Village was known as a poor area, but thanks to the government, the
village has developed a lot. “I personally saw the village’s changes. These changes have

With our busy lives, finding time to exercise can be another important thing. So when is
the best time to exercise? Could exercising at certain times help achieve our health goals?
The answer is “yes”.
There are clear benefits to exercising in the morning. Many of us have more free time then
and it may be easier for us to stick to a morning exercise. A study found that someone who
exercised in the morning, increased their physical activities all the day. Exercising on an
empty stomach before breakfast could also burn more fat and increase metabolism (新陈代
谢). So, good news for early birds, but what if you’re not a morning person? Doing
exercising in the afternoon or evening also has benefits. In the afternoon and evening, your
reaction (反应) time is the quickest, and your heart rate (心率) and blood pressure are the
lowest, which reduce your chance of getting hurt.
Is the best time to exercise different whether you are a man or woman? A 2022 study from
Skidmore College, New York, showed that there are some differences. Want to reduce your
blood pressure and you’re a woman? Exercise in the morning. Want to improve your heart
health and you’re a man? Evening is better for you. But, lastly, the study found that there are
clear benefits for men and women to exercise at either time of day. So what time is the best?
It seems the answer is: whatever time is the best for you!
46．Which one is right according to Paragraph One?
A. It’s not useful for us to exercise.
B. Finding time to exercise is important.
C. Exercising can’t help improve our health.
D. We have no time to exercise because we are busy.
47．What is the benefit of doing exercise in the afternoon or evening?
A. The reaction time is the lowest.
C. The blood pressure is the lowest.
B. The heart rate is the quickest.
D. The speed is the quickest.
48．Which one is the writer’s opinion towards “exercise” according to the text?
A. It’s good for us to exercise whenever we can.
B. A man who has heart problem should exercise in the morning.
C. It’s better for us to exercise in the morning than in the evening.
D. A woman who has high blood pressure should exercise in the evening.
There are many ways to get people to do what you want. You can order them around. “Do
this!” “Do that!” You can also threaten (威胁) them. “You had better do what I say ”
But these methods might not get the best results and you probably will lose a few friends.
“Half my teammates just told me they would give up!” Mike said to me angrily. “Well,
maybe they wouldn’t leave you if you didn’t shout at them every time something went
wrong,” I told him with a smile. “After all, you get more flies with honey than with vinegar
(醋).”
As we all know, honey is sweet, vinegar is sour and hard to drink. The expression “you get
more flies with honey than with vinegar” means it is a good idea to be nice to others.
Being mean or unpleasant is like being full of vinegar. You will push more people away and
nobody will like to be around you.
On the contrary (相反), being nice to other people is the best and easiest way to get what
you want. You can win over friends and chances more easily by being polite and kind.
Therefore, for those who like ordering people around, I would say: ________, you’ll get
what you want more easily.
49．What will probably happen if we order people around? (不超过15词)
________________________________________________
50．When did Mike shout at his teammates? (不超过10个词)
________________________________________________
51．What would the writer say at the end of the text? (不超过10个词)
________________________________________________
五、词汇互译
52．I like our English teacher. He always make our class l________ (生机勃勃的).
53．The glass c________ (盖子) is easily broken, so you should be careful.
54．The woman looked at me q________ (静静地) when she heard the bad news.
55．Nowadays, many parents go c________ (野营) with their children in the spare time.
56．Shi Chuanying, a girl from Guizhou, was i________ (邀请) to Milan Fashion Week last
year.
六、写作题

the local climbers an advantage. Many students climb mountains and trees from an early age,
building strong physical health. Among them is a girl called Huang Xinyi, who used to love
climbing trees. In December 2019, when she was in the 5th grade of primary school, she
successfully passed the climbing selection(选拔) and became one of the team members.
Hard training brought her progress. She trained for 150 minutes a day, six days a week. In

the first time. She entered the final in 8. 56 seconds. In August 2022, Huang Xinyi won the
women’s speed championship at the 6th National Junior Climbing Championship, which was

the silver medal of women’s group speed competition in Korea. In October, Huang Xinyi
won the gold medal of women’s speed competition at the 2023 Asian Youth Climbing
Championships.

“more training”. For her, climbing is a window to a wider world. “Because of climbing, I

The word “Yongfeng” in Chinese means forever wealth. It is also the name of a village in
Jilin Province. Growing up in Yongfeng Village, 23-year-old Jin Wanting valued fun days
playing games in the fields and missed sweet potatoes in winter. These joyful childhood
moments became her happiest memories. She thinks it is a valuable ground that connects her
past with future.
While in college, Jin learned computer science and planned to be a programmer. However,
an invitation from the village officer changed her mind. “The village is developing, and it
needs skilled young people. I considered returning to the village as a great chance to both
challenge myself and contribute (做贡献) to my hometown,” she said.
Jin returned to Yongfeng Village and became the manager of a Western-style restaurant
there. Before Jin joined the restaurant, most of its customers were young tourists because
older people usually prefer traditional Chinese food. To change this situation, Jin and the
cooks carefully developed several fast food by connecting Western elements with Chinese
materials. These dishes quickly got popular among older customers.

village has developed a lot. “I personally saw the village’s changes. These changes have

With our busy lives, finding time to exercise can be another important thing. So when is
the best time to exercise? Could exercising at certain times help achieve our health goals?
The answer is “yes”.
There are clear benefits to exercising in the morning. Many of us have more free time then
and it may be easier for us to stick to a morning exercise. A study found that someone who
exercised in the morning, increased their physical activities all the day. Exercising on an
empty stomach before breakfast could also burn more fat and increase metabolism (新陈代
谢). So, good news for early birds, but what if you’re not a morning person? Doing
exercising in the afternoon or evening also has benefits. In the afternoon and evening, your
reaction (反应) time is the quickest, and your heart rate (心率) and blood pressure are the
lowest, which reduce your chance of getting hurt.
Is the best time to exercise different whether you are a man or woman? A 2022 study from
Skidmore College, New York, showed that there are some differences. Want to reduce your
blood pressure and you’re a woman? Exercise in the morning. Want to improve your heart
health and you’re a man? Evening is better for you. But, lastly, the study found that there are
clear benefits for men and women to exercise at either time of day. So what time is the best?
It seems the answer is: whatever time is the best for you!
46．Which one is right according to Paragraph One?
A. It’s not useful for us to exercise.
B. Finding time to exercise is important.
C. Exercising can’t help improve our health.

47．What is the benefit of doing exercise in the afternoon or evening?

C. The blood pressure is the lowest.
B. The heart rate is the quickest.
D. The speed is the quickest.
48．Which one is the writer’s opinion towards “exercise” according to the text?

There are many ways to get people to do what you want. You can order them around. “Do
this!” “Do that!” You can also threaten (威胁) them. “You had better do what I say ”
But these methods might not get the best results and you probably will lose a few friends.
“Half my teammates just told me they would give up!” Mike said to me angrily. “Well,
maybe they wouldn’t leave you if you didn’t shout at them every time something went
wrong,” I told him with a smile. “After all, you get more flies with honey than with vinegar
(醋).”
As we all know, honey is sweet, vinegar is sour and hard to drink. The expression “you get
more flies with honey than with vinegar” means it is a good idea to be nice to others.
Being mean or unpleasant is like being full of vinegar. You will push more people away and
nobody will like to be around you.
On the contrary (相反), being nice to other people is the best and easiest way to get what
you want. You can win over friends and chances more easily by being polite and kind.
Therefore, for those who like ordering people around, I would say: ________, you’ll get
what you want more easily.
49．What will probably happen if we order people around? (不超过15词)
