　　As I watched several people go by, get into their cars and drive off, I

　　washing and cleaning about a dozen or more cars. He must have begun to work quite early in the morning.

　　Several thoughts

　　T-shirt. The bicycle he rode was not by any means the kind modern

　　would want to be seen riding on. But he seemed

　　14 elderly men and women on their way to the market nearby.

　　There was a noticeable touch of

　　Visitors worry that London is an expensive city but there really are so many free things to do here. The following ideas should get you started.

　　All of London's major museums are free, but most offer some special exhibitions for a fee. My favorite is the Museum of London where you can learn the history of London from Roman times to today. And I love the Geffrye Museum which shows English domestic interiors（内务） and helps bring to life what it was really like to live in London.

　　I regularly hear people tell me the Queen Mary's Rose Gardens in Regent's Park is their favorite spot in London, and who am I to argue? I would also recommend St. James's Park as it offers one of the best views of Buckingham Palace. Hyde Park is enormous（巨大的） and Kensington Gardens nearby includes the ever popular Diana Memorial Playground and the Peter Pan Statue.

　　No visit to London is complete without seeing this military tradition. The Queen's Guard in London changes in the Forecourt inside the gates of Buckingham Palace at 11.30am every day in the summer and every other day in the winter. Get there early and view the spectacle（壮观的场面） from outside the front gates.

　　Trafalgar Square is one of Britain's greatest visitor attractions and was designed by John Nash in the 1820s and constructed in the 1830s. This iconic square has many sights to see including Nelson's Column and the National Gallery. It is both a tourist attraction and the main focus for political demonstrations. Every December, Norway donates a marvelous（非凡的） Christmas tree, to thank Britain for liberation from the Nazis.

　　31. Where can visitors find the Peter Pan Statue?

　　A. in Regent's Park.

　　B. in St. James's Park.

　　A. In the Geffrye Museum visitors can learn the history of London from Roman times to today.

　　B. The Queen Mary's Rose Gardens is in Buckingham Palace.

　　C. There is the Queen's Guard change inside the gates of Buckingham Palace at 11.30 am every day all year around.

　　Many schools across the US hold graduation ceremonies this time of year. In some schools, even 5 and 6-year-olds observe their graduation from kindergarten. And so can older people, much older. Meet 70-year-old Jerry Reid, who just graduated from the University of Virginia in Charlottesville. He earned a bachelor’s degree.

　　Mr. Reid might not look like the average college student; his hair is definitely grayer. But still Jerry Reid’s age is easy to forget, other UVA students know him as one of their own.

　　Mr. Reid sat into the “Hoo Crew,” a group that cheers loudly for the school at sports events. He also joined a men's group on campus. He sang drinking songs along with many other students. Mr. Reid’s school friends say they can talk to him just about anything.

　　About a half century ago, in his 20s, Mr. Reid was not in school. Instead, he was racing cars and chasing girls. But he says his friend Bill invited him to UVA parties.

　　“Bill told me what a terrible life I had unless I came up here and went to school with him,” said Reid.

　　That was in 1963. Jerry Reid says it took him 48 years to take that advice. In 2011, he entered college. UVA Professor Luke Wright says Mr. Reid influences students. He opened the minds of the young adults. The teacher says Mr. Reid showed them that life does not end at 40. Instead, the 70-year-old college graduate believes that getting older can be the beginning of a dream.

　　“Remember that path that you left waits for you. It’s there. It’s yours. All you must do is to get out of your own way and get back to it. And, that's exactly what I did,” said Reid.

　　Mr. Reid says that he and his wife Susan now would take some time off to enjoy his college degree. Then, he’ll return to UVA to begin studying for his graduate degree.

　　34. Which of the following is true of Mr. Reid?

　　A. He was laughed at by other students.

　　B. He was interested in study in his youth.

　　C. He enlarged the views of young people.

　　D. He got his graduate degree in 2011.

　　35. From the third paragraph, we can infer that Mr. Reid was _________.

　　D. energetic

　　36. What does Paragraph 6 mainly discuss?

　　A. How Mr. Reid realizes his dream.

　　B. What teachers think of Mr. Reid.

　　【湖北省沙市中学2024届高三上学期第二次考试】B

　　Should we allow modern buildings to be built next to older buildings in a historic area of a city? In order to answer this question, we must first examine whether people really want to preserve the historic feel of an area. Not all historical buildings are attractive. However, there may be other reasons for example, economic reasons—why they should be preserved. So, let us assume that historical buildings are both attractive and important to the majority of people. What should we do then if a new building is needed?

　　In my view, new architectural styles can exist perfectly well alongside an older style. Indeed, there are many examples in my own home town of Tours where modern designs have been placed very successfully next to old buildings. As long as the building in question is pleasing and does not dominate its surroundings too much, it often improves the attractiveness of the area.

　　It is true that there are examples of new buildings which have spoilt the area they are in, but the same can be said of some old buildings too. Yet people still speak against new buildings in historic areas. I think this is simply because people are naturally conservative and do not like change.

　　Although we have to respect people's feelings as fellow users of the buildings, I believe that it is the duty of the architect and planner to move things forward. If we always reproduced what was there before, we would all still be living in caves. Thus, I would argue against copying previous architectural styles and choose something fresh and different, even though that might be the more risky choice.

　　38．What does the author say about historical buildings in the first paragraph?

　　A．Some of them are not attractive.

　　B．Most of them ate too expensive to preserve.

　　C．They are more pleasing than modern buildings.

　　D．They have nothing to do with the historic feel of an area.

　　39．By “move things forward” in the last paragraph, the author probably means“

　　”．

　　A．destroy old buildings

　　B．put things in a different place

　　C．choose new architectural styles

　　D．respect people's feelings for historical buildings

　　．What is the main purpose of the passage?

　　A．To explain why people dislike change.

　　B．To warn that we could end up living in caves.

　　C．To admit how new buildings have ruined their surroundings.

　　D．To argue that modern buildings can be built in historic areas.

　　第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）【湖北省部分重点中学2024届高三上学期起点考试】根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多于选项。

　　Third-Culture Kids

　　Did you grow up in one culture, your parents came from another, and you are now living in a totally different country? If so, then you are a third-culture kid!

　　The term “third-culture kid” (or TCK) was first used in the 1960s by Dr. Ruth. She first came across this phenomenon when she researched North American children living in India. Caught between two cultures, they form their very own.

　　About 90 percent of them have a university degree, while 40 percent pursue a postgraduate or doctor degree. They usually benefit from their intercultural experience, which helps them to grow into successful academics and professionals.

　　In fact many hardships may arise from this phenomenon. A third-culture kid may not be able to adapt themselves completely to their new surroundings as expected. Instead, they may always remain an outsider in different host cultures. Max, for example, experienced this feeling of strangeness throughout his life as a third-culture kid.

　　While this can be a way to create a network of friends all around the world, it can be difficult for a third-culture kid like Max to maintain close friendships and relationships.

　　For a third-culture kid, it is often easier to move to a new foreign country than to return to their “home” country. After living in Australia and South Korea for many years, Louis finally returned to Turkey as a teenager. But she felt out of place when she returned to the country where she was born.

　　She did not share the same values as her friends’ even years after going back home.
