    III. Reading Comprehension
    Section A

    In interviews, famous people often say that the key to becoming both happy and successful is to “do what you love.” But mastering a skill, even one that you deeply love, requires a huge amount of hard work
    Anyone who wants to master a skill must run through the ___35___of practice critical feedback, alteration, and improvement over and over. Some people seem able to concentrate on practicing an activity like this for years and ___36___their gradual improvement. Yet others find it ___37___to do this kind of focused, time—consuming work. Why?
    The ___38___may turn on the ability to enter into a state of “flow”, the feeling of being completely involved in what you are doing. Flow states can happen in the course of any activity, and they are most common when a task has well—defined goals and is at a(n) ___39___skill level, and where the individual is able to ___40___their performance to clear and immediate feedback.
    Flow states turn the boring practice into an autotelic activity that is, one that can be enjoyed for its own sake, rather than as a means to an end or for obtaining some ___41___reward. Then how can we get into a flow state for an activity that we want to master, so that we enjoy both the ___42___and the rewards?
    Those who most ___43___entered into flow states had an “autotelic personality”—a quality to seek out challenges and get into a state of flow. While those without such a personality see ____44____autotelic individuals see opportunities to build skills. Autotelic individuals are receptive, open to new challenges and also persistent. Such people, with an ability to focus on tasks rather than ____45____, have a great advantage over others in developing their inborn abilities.
    ____46____, for those of us who aren’t necessarily blessed with an autotelic personality, there is evidence that flow states can be promoted by environmental factors. In particular, the learning framework advocated by Montessori schools seems to encourage flow states. In Montessori schools, learning comes through discovery rather than direct instruction and students are encouraged to develop individual interests.

    Section B
    Directions: Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.
    (A)
    It cannot be denied that Hakka earth buildings, or Kejia tulou, are totally different to traditional architectural styles both in China and abroad
    Beyond their giant size, earth buildings are unique for their robust(坚固的)architecture. The multi-storey buildings were built with a mixture of earth, sand, glutinous rice , bamboo and wood chips, solidly tamped(夯实)into walls up to two metres thick. Each building could shelter hundreds of people——all sharing the same surname. If danger approached, the doors would be swiftly bolted(闩上)shut. Weapons would then be distributed among the men. Food would be stockpiled in advance and water drawn from the wells located within the building.
    Though sometimes called roundhouses, not all earth buildings are doughnut-shaped. Oval square and rectangular ones can be found as well. Some earth buildings bunch up in picturesque clusters, but many stand alone
    While some of the oldest existing earth buildings date back to the 12th century, the most recent examples were built in the last century. In a typical earth building, rooms are arranged in a ring-like formation, which face onto a circular central courtyard.
    For anyone numbed by the impersonal nature of modern Chinese apartment blocks or the rapid pace of urban China, the earth buildings are charming reminders of what communal village life was like in the past. The Chinese frequently say, “A nearby neighbour is better than a distant relative.” The earth-building-living Hakka have the best of both worlds, as neighbours are also relatives.
    Despite their sturdy defences, the earth buildings are falling victim to a gradual hollowing out from within. Like so many villages across China, grandparents and grandchildren can be found playing together, but there is often less and less indication of the presence of the labouring generation between the two. The young and the middle-aged have left to earn money in the country’s cities and towns, leaving many earth buildings largely depopulated.
    47. According to the article, which of the following statements about Hakka earth buildings is true?
    A. Most earth buildings are round—shaped.
    B. Most earth buildings are built to be the same size.
    C. The first earth building was built in the 12th century.
    D. A typical earth building is occupied by one large family clan of the same surname.
    48. We can learn from the article that the biggest advantage of living in an earth building compared to that of an urban apartment is the ______.
    A. close neighborhood ties B. scenery of the countryside
    C. vast living space D. communal way of life
    49. According to the last paragraph, why are the earth buildings disappearing?
    A. Because fewer and fewer babies are being born in the villages
    B. Because they have to make way for modern apartment blocks.
    C. Because they have been worn down by the years without repair.
    D. Because more and more people are moving into the cities and towns.
    【答案】47. D 48. A 49. D
    【解析】
    【导语】本文是一篇说明文。介绍的是客家土楼的结构特点及其作用和意义,但是随着青壮年劳动力外出务工,使得土楼人口在很大程度上减少。
    【47题详解】
    细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Each building could shelter hundreds of people—all sharing the same surname.(每栋建筑可以容纳数百人——他们都拥有相同的姓氏。)”可知,客家土楼可以容纳数百人,这些人拥有同样的姓氏。故选D项。
    【48题详解】
    推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中的“The Chinese frequently say, “A nearby neighbour is better than a distant relative.” The earth-building-living Hakka have the best of both worlds, as neighbours are also relatives.(中国人常说:“远亲不如近邻”。居住在土楼中的客家人拥有两全其美的优势,因为邻居也是亲戚。)”可知,生活在土楼的客家人把邻居当作亲戚,体现出邻里之间的亲密关系。故选A项。
    【49题详解】
    推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“The young and the middle—aged have left to earn money in the country’s cities and towns, leaving many earth buildings largely depopulated.(年轻人和中年人离开去该国的城镇赚钱,使许多土楼的基本人口减少。)”可知,很多青年和中年人都进城务工,居住在土楼的人越来越少,所以土楼也将随着消失。故选D项。
    (B)

    This document sets out the display standards for Glasgow Museums. This guide will help exhibition planners provide access to exhibitions in our museums. Glasgow Museums’ aim is to improve access to collections by having as many items as possible on display and without physical barriers. We also try out best to protect these objects without limiting access to them.
    Ø Object Placement
    • Don’t place objects in such a way that they could present a danger to visitors.
    • All object displays, cased or otherwise, must be viewable by all, including people who are small in figure or in wheelchairs.
    Ø Open Display
    • All objects on open display must be secure from theft and damage.
    • All objects identified for potential open display must be viewed and agreed on an object-to-object basis by the Security Manager of the museum.
    Recommendations
    Distance
    Recommended distance to place objects out of “casual arm’s 700mm length” (taken from the edge of the object to the edge of any proposed form of barrier)
    700mm
    *In some cases, 600mm may be acceptable, provided the plinth height is above 350mm.
    Ø Cased Objects
    • All cased displays should fall within the general optimum (最优的) viewing band of 750-2000mm. Ensure everything is visually accessible from a wheelchair.
    • Position small objects or those with fine detail in the front part of a case, with larger items behind.
    • Position small items or those with fine detail no higher than 1015mm from floor level. Objects placed above this height are only seen from below by people in wheelchairs or people who are small in figure.

    50. From this passage, we can learn that Glasgow Museums ________.
    A. limit access to exhibitions on a daily basis B. are most well-known for its large collection
    C. make generous donations to the disabled D. give weight to the experiences of visitors
    51. According to the guide, objects to be placed on open display must ________.
    A. be equipped with anti-theft system B. be viewed from a distance of 700mm
    C. receive approval from the museum first D. fall within arms’ reach of a standing man
    52. A mother and her 10-year-old son are likely to both feel comfortable in front of a diamond placed in a glass case at the height of ________.
    A. 1250mm B. 950mm C. 650mm D. 450mm
    【答案】50. D 51. C 52. B
    【解析】
    【导语】本文是一篇应用文。文章介绍了格拉斯哥博物馆对参展物品所规定的展示标准和要求。
    【50题详解】
    推理判断题。根据第一段“Glasgow Museums’ aim is to improve access to collections by having as many items as possible on display and without physical barriers. ”(格拉斯哥博物馆的目标是通过展示尽可能多的物品,并且没有物理障碍,来改善人们对藏品的访问)可知从这段话中,我们可以了解到格拉斯哥博物馆重视游客的体验。故选D项。
    【51题详解】
    细节理解题。根据第三部分“All objects identified for potential open display must be viewed and agreed on an object-to-object basis by the Security Manager of the museum.”(所有被确定为可能开放展示的物品必须由博物馆的安全经理逐个查看并同意),可知根据该指南,公开展示的物品必须首先获得博物馆的批准。故选C项。
    【52题详解】
    推理判断题。根据最后一部分“All cased displays should fall within the general optimum (最优的) viewing band of 750-2000mm. Ensure everything is visually accessible from a wheelchair.”(所有带外壳的显示器应在750-2000mm的一般最佳观看范围内。确保所有东西都可以从轮椅上看到。)以及“Position small items or those with fine detail no higher than 1015mm from floor level. ”(摆放小物件或有细节的物件,距离地面不超过1015mm)可知一位母亲和她10岁的儿子在放在950毫米高的玻璃盒子里的钻石面前都会感到很舒服。故选B项。
    (C)
    People climbing Mount Everest are two times as likely to reach the top and less likely to die on the climb than 20 years ago, a new study finds. Everest, high in the Himalayans, is the tallest mountain above sea level on Earth. It reaches 8,848 meters into the sky.
    Between 2006 and 2019, around two thirds of climbers were successful in their attempt to reach the top. In the 15 years before that, only about one—third went all the way to the top.
    The number of attempts to reach the top of Everest has risen sharply over the years, leading to a 300 percent increase in overcrowding. In 2019, 955 climbers tried to reach the mountaintop. Only 222 people did so in 2000.
    The study noted that on a single day in May of last year, 396 climbers had gathered at the narrow path just below the top. The area, known as the “death zone,” is so narrow that only a small number of climbers can pass through, one directly behind another.
    Nine climbers died on Everest in May 2019. It was the deadliest Everest climbing season since 2015 when an earthquake killed at least 18 people on the mountain.
    A picture of climbers waiting their tun to go up and down through the death zone became famous as it was shared online. Yet researchers say the crowds were not the main reason for the deaths last year. “Surprisingly crowding has no evident effect on success or death” of Everest climbers, the study said.
    However, overcrowding does make the climb more dangerous. “If crowding slows climbers (as is expected), this increases their exposure to the elements, which should increase risk of an accident or illness,” said Raymond B. Huey, lead writer of the report.
    An unexpected storm, earthquake, or landslide could be disastrous, he told Reuters by email.
    Climbers have expressed concern about giving anyone willing to pay the government $11,000 permission to climb Everest. Nepal plans to change its policy to require climbers to use guides, and meet physical fitness and experience qualifications, said tourism department official Mira Acharya.
    Nepal temporarily closed its mountains to climbers because of the coronavirus health crisis. Now they are open again. However, Acharya noted that flights into and within Nepal have not restarted.
    53. Supposing 900 people took part in the climbing Mount Everest between 1990 and 2005, how many of them reached the top?
    A. 300. B. 400. C. 500. D. 600
    54. Why does overcrowding make the climbing more dangerous?
    A. Because it surprisingly leads to death for those climbers.
    B. Because it stopped the climbers from reaching the top at the area called “death zone”.
    C. Because it exposes climbers to increasing risk of an accident or illness.
    D. Because it gets climbers stranded in “death zone” and unable to get further supplies.
    55. According to the report, what is the possible reason for overcrowding?
    A. More people want to experience the climbing to the top of Mount Everest.
    B. A picture of climbers waiting to reach the top inspires more people to give it a try.
    C. Nepal government gives climbers permission without restrictions.
    D. More people want to climb the Mount Everest before Nepal takes restrictions.
    56. What is the general idea of this passage?
    A. Climbers are more likely to lose their lives before Reaching Top of Mount Everest.
    B. More climbers need to be trained before climbing Mount Everest.
    C. Enough experience in climbing mountains matters so much.
    D. Climbers are twice as likely to reach top of Mount Everest than in Past.
    【答案】53. A 54. C 55. C 56. D
    【解析】
    【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述目前攀登珠穆朗玛峰的人登顶的可能性是20年前的两倍,在攀登过程中死亡的可能性也比20年前少了一倍。并简要介绍了导致登山者死亡或患病的原因。
    【53题详解】
    细节理解题。根据第二段“Between 2006 and 2019, around two thirds of climbers were successful in their attempt to reach the top. In the 15 years before that, only about one—third went all the way to the top.(在2006年至2019年间,大约三分之二的登山者成功登顶。在那之前的15年里,只有大约三分之一的人登顶。)”可知,在1991年到2005期间只有1/3的人登顶成功。由此可推知,如果1990年到2005年有900人登珠峰,那么登顶的人数为:900×1/3=300人。故选A。
    【54题详解】
    细节理解题。根据倒数第四段““If crowding slows climbers (as is expected), this increases their exposure to the elements, which should increase risk of an accident or illness,(如果拥挤减缓登山者的速度(正如预期的那样),就会增加他们暴露在自然环境中的机会,这就会增加发生事故或患病的风险。)”可知,因为过度拥挤会增加登山者发生事故或患病的风险,所以这会让登山变得更困难。故选C。
    【55题详解】
    推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“Climbers have expressed concern about giving anyone willing to pay the government $11,000 permission to climb Everest.(登山者们表示担心,任何愿意向政府支付1.1万美元的人都可以攀登珠穆朗玛峰。)”可推知,尼泊尔政府给予登山者无限制的许可,这可能是导致登山拥挤的原因。故选C。
    【56题详解】
    主旨大意题。阅读文章,并根据第一段“People climbing Mount Everest are two times as likely to reach the top and less likely to die on the climb than 20 years ago, a new study finds.(一项新的研究发现,攀登珠穆朗玛峰的人登顶的可能性是20年前的两倍,在攀登过程中死亡的可能性也比20年前少了一倍。)”可知,本文主要讲述登山者登上珠穆朗玛峰的可能性是过去的两倍。故选D。
    Section C
    Directions: Read the following passage. Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box. Each sentence can be used only once. Note that there are two more sentences than you need.
    Exercise for a Better Brain
    Most of the time, your brain is the boss of your muscles—directing how you hit a ball, play the piano, or open a cereal box. ____57____ When you’re active, they send chemical signals telling your brain, “Hey, it’s time to grow!” Recent research suggests physical activity has multiple brain benefits, encouraging the birth and growth of new brain cells that supply oxygen and blood sugar to brain cells.
    In a 2016 National Institute on Aging study, people who ran on a treadmill for 45 minutes three days a week boosted their levels of brain—derived neurotrophic(神经营养的)factor, a chemical that acts like fertilizer for new brain cells. ____58____
    Without exercise, Suzuki says, “little baby neurons don’t get bigger and make thousands of new connections to other brain cells. With exercise, you get fully functioning adult brain cells.” Studies suggest that in younger adults, this can add to the overall number of cells in the hippocampus(海马体). ____59____ It’s a good deal. “There’s evidence these new brain cells are very active,” she says. “They’re excitable, like teenagers. They get involved in more memory circuits than older cells do. You get more connections.”
    ____60____ If you’re inactive, a stroll around the block may be all it takes to encourage neuroplasticity, she says. And every bit counts. In a 2019 Boston University study of 2354 adults in their 40s through 60s, sedentary people who boosted their daily walking by 7500 steps or more had bigger brains than those who didn’t exercise equivalent to 1.4 to 2.2 fewer years of brain aging, the more light activity study participants logged, such as doing housework, shopping, gardening, or walking the dog, the greater the overall size of their brains.
    A. And once age—related brain changes begin, starting in our 30s, exercise helps keep brain cells alive longer and replaces old cells with new ones.
    B. Tips have been offered as to how to do exercise.
    C. After four months of workouts, their scores improved on a memory test.
    D. Besides, studies also suggest that dying cells and brain wastes can be cleared with enough exercise on a regular basis.
    E. But when it comes to growing new brain cells, more and more research shows that when you exercise, your muscles take charge.
    F. Again, a little goes a long way.
    【答案】57. E 58. C 59. A 60. F
    【解析】
    【导语】这是一篇说明文。研究发现体育运动对各年龄段人们的大脑有益,同时能促进新的脑细胞的诞生和成长。
    【57题详解】
    下文“When you’re active, they send chemical signals telling your brain, “Hey, it’s time to grow!” (当你活跃时,它们会发送化学信号告诉你的大脑,“嘿,是时候成长了!”)”可知,空格处需要谈到的是运动促进大脑成长,选项E“但是当谈到培养新的脑细胞时,越来越多的研究表明当你运动时,你的肌肉在起作用”符合题意,下文they指代选项中的your muscles。故选E项。
    【58题详解】
    上文“In a 2016 National Institute on Aging study, people who ran on a treadmill for 45 minutes three days a week boosted their levels of brain—derived neurotrophic(神经营养的)factor, a chemical that acts like fertilizer for new brain cells.(在2016年一项国家衰老研究所的研究中,每周跑三次,每次四十五分钟的人提高了他们脑源性神经营养因子的水平——这是一种化学物质对新生脑细胞起着肥料的作用)”可知,脑源性神经营养因子的水平会随着运动提高,选项C“在4个月的锻炼之后,他们在记忆测试中的分数有所提高”揭示了这项研究的成果,也是对上文的承接。 故选C项。
    【59题详解】
    下文“It’s a good deal. “There’s evidence these new brain cells are very active,” she says.(这是一件好事。她说:“有证据证明新的脑细胞非常活跃”) ”可知,新的脑细胞的产生对提升人思维的活跃度有好处,选项A“一旦与年龄相关的大脑变化开始,从我们30多岁开始锻炼,有助于让脑细胞活得更久并用新细胞替换旧细胞”符合题意,it指代中的exercise,是对空格处内容的承接,说明了运动的好处。故选A项。
    【60题详解】
    下文“If you’re inactive, a stroll around the block may be all it takes to encourage neuroplasticity, she says.(如果你不爱运动,在街区散步可能就能促进神经的可塑性)”可知,人们的运动量不需要很大,一点点就够了。F项“再说一遍,一点点运动就够了”符合题意。故选F项。
    IV. Translation
    Directions: Translate the following sentences into English, using the words given in the brackets.
    61. 抱怨网络对热爱冒险的青少年的消极影响是无意义的。(point; impact)(汉译英)
    【答案】There’s no point complaining about the internet’s negative impact on teenagers who love adventure.
    【解析】
    【详解】考查固定句型、搭配、动词和形容词。表示“做某事是无意义的”可以使用固定句型There is no point doing sth;表示“抱怨某事”应使用短语complain about;表“某物对某人的消极影响”可以使用A’s(某物) impact on B(某人);表示“热爱冒险的青少年”可使用定语从句teenagers who love adventure;表“消极的”使用形容词negative,故答案为:There’s no point complaining about the internet’s negative impact on teenagers who love adventure。
    62. 虽然他未能在比赛中获得一等奖,但他的雄心与决心都让裁判们印象深刻。(impress)(汉译英)
    【答案】Although he failed to win the first prize in the competition, the referees were deeply impressed by his ambition and determination.
    【解析】
    【详解】考查短语、名词和动词。表示“获得一等奖”应用动词短语win the first prize;表示“在比赛中”可使用介宾短语in the competition;表示“未能”可以使用动词短语fail to do,根据句意表述可知,句子描述过去事实,应使用过去式形式;表“对……印象深刻”应使用动词短语be deeply impressed by sth;表示“雄心与决心”使用ambition and determination;表“裁判”使用名词referee;表示“虽然……但是……”可使用Although引导让步状语从句。故答案为:Although he failed to win the first prize in the competition, the referees were deeply impressed by his ambition and determination.
