A
New Year’s celebrations take many forms, but most cultures have one thing in common—have a good time after a long, hard year. For much of the globe this involves drinking with friends until the sun comes up, singing together. But others have rather more curious habits, often filled with superstition (迷信).
In Denmark, people stand on chairs and jump off together as the clock strikes midnight, really leaping into the new year. The Danes also throw plates at their friends’ homes during the night-the more pieces you find outside your door in the morning the more popular you are said to be.
In Finland, say tour guides, people pour melted (熔化的) lead into cold water to predict the year ahead from the shape the metal forms. If the shape represents a ship it is said to predict travel, if it’s a ball, good luck.
The Dutch build massive bonfires with their Christmas trees and cat sugary donuts—one of many cultures to consume round New Year’s foods traditionally believed to represent good fortune.
Spaniards, in turn, cat a dozen grapes before the strike of midnight, each fruit representing a month that will either be sweet or sour.
In the Philippines, people wear polka dots (带圆点的服装) for good luck, while in some countries of South America people put on brightly coloured underwear to attract fortune—red for love and yellow for financial success.
Despite regional and cultural differences, for most the New Year’s festivities are a chance to let off steam before the annual cycle starts all over again. “This is a holiday that is about celebration and letting go,” explained George Washington University sociologist Amitai Etzioni.
1. In which country is the festival related to metal?
A. Denmark. B. Spain. C. Finland. D. The Netherlands.
2. What can we learn about New Year’s celebrations from the text?
A. The Danes throw grapes at their friends’ homes during the night.
B. Spaniards eat many donuts before the strike of midnight.
C. The Dutch build massive walls with their Christmas trees.
D. Some people in South America wear red underwear for love.
3. What does the underlined phrase “let off steam” in the last paragraph mean?
A. Get married. B. Get relaxed. C. Make money. D. Make friends.
【答案】1. C 2. D 3. B
【解析】

【1题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“In Finland, say tour guides, people pour melted (熔化的) lead into cold water to predict the year ahead from the shape the metal forms. (导游说，在芬兰，人们把融化的铅倒入冷水中，通过金属形状来预测来年。)”可知，芬兰的节日和金属有关，故选C。
【2题详解】
细节理解题。根据第六段“while in some countries of South America people put on brightly coloured underwear to attract fortune—red for love and yellow for financial success.(而在南美洲的一些国家，人们会穿上色彩鲜艳的内衣来招财——红色代表爱情，黄色代表经济上的成功。)”可知，有些南美人为了爱情穿红色内衣，故选D。
【3题详解】

I’ve been in an 18-year love-hate relationship with a black walnut tree.
It’s a unique tree. In late September or early October, falling fruits as hard as baseballs threaten the skulls (头骨) of you, your children, your neighbors and those that reside next door to them. Umbrellas in the yard are a must while dining in early August, and as for me, I wear my bike helmet while working in the garden.
The black walnut also releases a chemical substance through its roots as a competitive strategy. It’s poisonous to several common plants. There have been many new plant varieties that I brought home with hopes that maybe the black walnut would accept them, but they failed to flourish.
What does work are native plants that naturally grow in the area. Native plants are important to have around since they provide beneficial pollinators (传粉者) like birds, bees and butterflies with seeds and contribute to a healthy and biodiverse environment. Native plants for this area are generally easy to grow, so they experience less stress.
Have I thought of getting rid of this giant pain in my tiny backyard? Yes, however, getting rid of this tree standing at 50 feet with an 87-inch trunk is next to impossible. It’s also protected under the law. Rightfully so. Trees are important to the urban forest and for all of those that inhabit it.
Sometimes I think about my life without the black walnut. I can’t imagine a spring without the birds who arrive every year and loudly sing their songs before dawn. I’d miss falling asleep on lazy weekend afternoons as I look up into its leaves.
Every spring, I wonder what the season holds: What are the chances of being knocked unconscious while barbecuing? Like any good relationship, I’ll never be pleased. I’m stuck with this tree, so I’ll listen to its needs and give it the space it requires. In return, my walnut offers a habitat for wildlife and a reminder.
4. Why does the author wear a bike helmet while working in the garden?
A. To protect the injured skull. B. To prevent herself from sunburn.
C. To avoid being hit by the nuts. D. To reduce the chance of getting bitten by bees.
5. What is the tree’s survival strategy?
A. It attracts beneficial pollinators.
B. It lets out poison to drive away pests.
C. It produces a chemical fatal to some plants.
D. It competes for nutrition with similar species.
6. Which of the following DOESN’T account for the author’s love-hate relationship with the tree?
A. The volume of its fruits may bring inconvenience.
B. The tree outcompetes the native plants in the garden.
C. The tree is home to numerous birds and other creatures.
D. The presence of the tree takes up much space of the garden.
7. The author most probably got a reminder from the tree that ________.
A. it’s better to give than to take
B. trees and plants have their own ways to flourish
C. even a good relationship is not always trouble-free
D. acceptance, instead of resistance, is the better way to be
【答案】4. C 5. C 6. B 7. D
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇记叙文，主要讲述作者后院的黑胡桃树给他带来困扰，但同时也让作者感到自然的生机。于是，作者学会包容接纳，享受与黑核桃树相伴的生活。
【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“falling fruits as hard as baseballs threaten the skulls (头骨) of you, your children, your neighbors and those that reside next door to them. (掉落的果实会和棒球一样坚硬，可能伤到你、孩子、邻居和那些住在隔壁的人的脑袋。)”可知，作者在果园里劳动时，会佩戴一个自行车头盔，是为了保护头部不会被树上掉落的坚硬果实砸伤，故选C项。
【5题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“The black walnut also releases a chemical substance through its roots as a competitive strategy. It’s poisonous to several common plants. (作为一种竞争策略，黑胡桃也会通过根部释放一种化学物质。它对几种常见植物来说是有毒性的。)”可知，黑胡桃树的生存策略就是释放一种对其他一些常见植物物种有毒的物质，以独占生存资源。故选C项。
【6题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段“Native plants for this area are generally easy to grow, so they experience less stress. (这个地区的原生植物通常很容易生长，所以它们承受的压力较小。)”可知，在这个果园中，黑胡桃树在与当地原生植物的生存竞争中并未占据优势，原生植物长势繁荣，这并非是作者对黑胡桃树又爱又恨的原因之一。故选B项。
【7题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第三段“Have I thought of getting rid of this giant pain in my tiny backyard? Yes, however, getting rid of this tree standing at 50 feet with an 87-inch trunk is next to impossible. (我有没有想过摆脱这个小小的后院的大麻烦吗？是的，然而，要摆脱这棵50英尺高、树干只有87英寸的树几乎是不可能的。)”和最后一段“I’m stuck with this tree, so I’ll listen to its needs and give it the space it requires. (我就与这棵树相伴，所以我会倾听它的需求，给它所需的空间。)”可知，作者从这棵树身上得到了这样启示：包容接纳，而非抗拒，会让生活更美好。故选D项。
C
If you’ve ever wondered who decides what sports to be included or left out at the Olympic Games, you’re probably not the only one, because the processes are a little complex and confusing.
It falls to the Executive Board of International Olympic Committee ( IOC ) to suggest which sports will be included and the rest of the IOC then votes according to a long list of standards: How much value the sport would add to the Olympic legacy (遗产); How long the sport has existed; How popular the sport is in the host country; How much it would cost to broadcast the events, and many other things.
Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games saw the inclusion of skateboarding, surfboarding, sport climbing and karate, all of which were selected by the IOC for the first time ever.
So, what contributes to å sport being left out? Having to limit the Games to a certain number of athletes, as well as scheduling needs can lead to some sports being left off the program, especially if they fall short of the above standards.
There’s perhaps no better example of this than softball and baseball. While both are included at Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games, it’s the first time they were included at Beijing 2008 Olympic Games. The IOC voted them out from London 2012 Olympic Games. Officials said that neither sport had global attraction.
But it’s not just the IOC that has the say. The host city can also play a role in the decision, and push for a particular sport for the year that it is hosting. For a real-world example, look no further than the 2024 Games to be held in Paris, which will see the inclusion of breakdancing as an Olympic sport for the first time.
8. What does the second paragraph focus on?
A. The voting process. B. The advantages of IOC.
C. The costs of the Games. D. The selecting standards.
9. Which was added to Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games for the first time?
A. Baseball. B. Breakdancing. C. Skateboarding. D. Softball.
10. Why was baseball left out at London 2012 Olympic Games?
A. It had too many players. B. It had a short history.
C. It was difficult to broadcast. D. It was not popular enough.
11. Who is most unlikely to have a say in selecting the Olympic sports?
A. The athletes. B. The Executive Board of IOC.
C. The host cities. D. International Olympic Committee.
【答案】8. D 9. C 10. D 11. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了奥委会确定奥运会比赛项目的程序及标准。
【8题详解】
主旨大意题。根据本段“It falls to the Executive Board of International Olympic Committee ( IOC ) to suggest which sports will be included and the rest of the IOC then votes according to a long list of standards:（由国际奥委会（IOC）执行委员会提出将包括哪些运动项目，然后由IOC其他成员根据一长串标准进行投票：） ”及后面的细节可知，本段主要介绍了奥运会项目的选择标准。故选D。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games saw the inclusion of skateboarding, surfboarding, sport climbing and karate, all of which were selected by the IOC for the first time ever.（2020年东京奥运会包括滑板、冲浪、运动攀岩和空手道，所有这些项目都是国际奥委会有史以来首次选定的。）”可知，2020年东京奥运会首次加入了滑板运动。故选C。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据第五段“The IOC voted them out from London 2012 Olympic Games. Officials said that neither sport had global attraction. （国际奥委会投票决定他们退出2012年伦敦奥运会。官员们表示，这两项运动都没有全球吸引力。）”可知，baseball被砍掉的原因是它在全球的热度不够。故选D。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段“It falls to the Executive Board of International Olympic Committee ( IOC ) to suggest which sports will be included and the rest of the IOC then votes …（由国际奥委会（IOC）执行委员会提出将包括哪些运动项目，然后由IOC其他成员根据投票）”及最后一段“But it’s not just the IOC that has the say. The host city can also play a role in the decision, and push for a particular sport for the year that it is hosting.（但不仅仅是国际奥委会有发言权。主办城市也可以在决策中发挥作用，推动主办年份的特定体育项目。）”可推断，运动员很可能无权决定哪些项目可以进入奥运会。故选A。
D
Mosquito bites are unavoidable in summer—or is that so? Scientists recently found that mosquitoes are more attracted to some colors than others, which could possibly prove useful to those trying to avoid the annoying bites.
The study found that after a common type of mosquitoes smelled CO2 the gas humans breathe out—they decided to land on some colored dots (色点) but ignored others
“Imagine you’re on a sidewalk and you smell toasty,” the lead researcher said in a press release announcing the study’s findings. “That’s probably a sign that there’s a bakery nearby and you might start looking around for it. Here, we started to learn what visual elements that mosquitoes are looking for after smelling their own version of a bakery.”
The research team put different colored dots at the bottom of a box and sprayed (喷洒) them with CO2. They found that mosquitoes were drawn most to red, orange and black. They also found that mosquitoes ignored green, blue and white. When a researcher reached his hand into the box wearing a green glove, mosquitoes ignored it, even when it was sprayed with CO2.
Unfortunately, avoiding mosquitoes isn’t as easy as choosing the right color of clothes. Human skin delivers a vivid red-orange “signal” to mosquitoes, the researchers said, making it hard to hide completely
“We previously discovered there are three major hints that attract mosquitoes: your breath, your sweat and the temperature of your skin,” the lead researcher said. “Now we have found a fourth hint: the color red, which can not only be found on your clothes, but is also found in everyone’s skin. The shade of your skin doesn’t matter. We are all giving off a strong red feature.”
While the research found that the mosquitoes appeared to prefer certain colors, it did not measure whether wearing colors like green or blue would help keep away from the mosquitoes. The researchers hope that their findings can help find other methods to drive back the biting insects.
12. Why did the researchers spray the dots with CO2?
A. It drives mosquitoes away.
B. It is attractive to mosquitoes.
C. It prevents mosquitoes finding targets.
D. It’s a practical material to catch mosquitoes.
13. Which of the following colors causes the least attention from mosquitoes?
A. Red. B. Black C. Orange. D. Blue.
14. What does paragraph 6 focus on?
A. The features of human skin.
B. Factors that attract mosquitoes.
C. What elements mosquitoes ignore.
D. How to choose the color of clothes.
15. What may be the hopeful result of the study?
A. Mosquitoes will disappear someday.
B. Most people will wear colorful clothes.
C. The survival rate of mosquitoes will be affected.
D. More ways will be found to keep mosquitoes off.
【答案】12. B 13. D 14. B 15. D
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。主要介绍了研究人员通过研究发现蚊子偏爱某些颜色，并以此探索驱散蚊子的办法。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第二段“The study found that after a common type of mosquitoes smelled CO2 the gas humans breathe out—they decided to land on some colored dots (色点) but ignored others.”（研究发现一种常见的蚊子在闻到人类呼出的二氧化碳的气味后，它们停留在一些色点上，而忽视了其他色点。）及第三段研究人员做的比喻“Here, we started to learn what visual elements that mosquitoes are looking for after smelling their own version of a bakery.”（现在，我们开始研究在蚊子闻到它们喜欢的烘焙食品的味道后会寻找什么视觉线索。）可知，对蚊子而言，人类呼出的二氧化碳就像是香甜的面包，会吸引它们。故选B项。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第四段第三句“They also found that mosquitoes ignored green, blue and white. ”（他们也发现蚊子会忽视绿色，蓝色和白色的色点。）可知，这三种颜色无法引起蚊子的关注。故选D项。
【14题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第六段第一句“We previously discovered there are three major hints that attract mosquitoes: your breath, your sweat and the temperature of your skin”（我们之前发现吸引蚊子的三种因素，即你的呼吸，汗水及皮肤温度。）及第二句“Now we have found a fourth hint: the color red, which can not only be found on your clothes, but is also found in everyone’s skin. ”（现在我们发现了第四种就是红色，它不仅指你衣服上的红色，也存在于每个人的皮肤中。）可知，本段主要说明了四种吸引蚊子的因素。故选B项。
【15题详解】
细节理解题。根据第七段最后一句“The researchers hope that their findings can help find other methods to drive back the biting insects.”（研究人员希望他们的发现有助于探索其他驱散这种咬人昆虫的方法。）可知，该研究的发现有助于探索更多的方法驱散蚊子。故选D项。
第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分，满分12.5分)
根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
When did you last write a letter by hand? In a digital world, where sending a text or email is more convenient than using snail mail, is traditional pen and paper dying out? Some people claim that writing has many benefits. So maybe it’s not time to put away your pen yet.
These days, when people request things in writing, a typed, electronic document will be accepted. ____16____. But crafting a handwritten document is unique: It requires planning and thought, and it helps you to remember spelling and punctuation.
____17____. This is particularly relevant for students. They are used to typing notes into a laptop, which is thought to lack the “tactile feedback (触觉反馈) ” to the brain that contact between pen and paper does. BBC Worklife website quotes Hetty Roessingh from the University of Calgary, who says that “taking notes by hand involves cognitive (认知的) engagement in summarizing, paraphrasing, organizing, concept and vocabulary mapping.”____18____.
There are everyday benefits to using pen and paper too. Scribbling notes, shopping lists or messages on the back of an envelope can still be useful, quick and portable.____19____. Pen pal writer Katherine Moller told the BBC: “...it is so personal and so precious to know someone chose to turn off the virtual world to spend some time with you.”
____20____especially if your smartphone, tablet or laptop runs out of power!
A. Some experts believe your brain benefits from using pen and paper
B. Doing this on a computer means it could be edited, saved and sent
C. However, a hand-written document can reflect your devotion and sincerity
D. So, while digital skills remain important, don’t quit your pens and pencils yet
E. Handwriting has became a fashion for a small group of people in recent years
F. Others agree that handwriting may improve fine motor skills in your hands and fingers
G. And putting pen to paper in a letter to a friend or loved one can probably have the most impact
【答案】16. B 17. A 18. F 19. G 20. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是篇议论文。文章通过对手写文本或信件好处的描述，呼吁大家即使数字技能很重要，也不要放弃手中的纸笔。
【16题详解】
根据上一句“These days, when people request things in writing, a typed, electronic document will be accepted.”（如今，当人们以书面形式提出要求时，打印的电子文件将被接受。）可知，人们需要在电脑上打印电子文件来提出书面要求，选项B. Doing this on a computer means it could be edited, saved and sent（在电脑上这样做意味着它可以被编辑、保存和发送）中的“Doing this on a computer”与之相对应，指的就是在电脑上打印电子文件；下一句“But crafting a handwritten document is unique:”（但手写文件是独一无二的）开始描述手写文件的优点，用了转折连词“But”，与选项B中讲述的“打印文件”正好形成转折关系，故选项B承上启下，衔接合理。故选B。
【17题详解】
根据第三段中“They are used to typing notes into a laptop, which is thought to lack the “tactile feedback (触觉反馈) ” to the brain that contact between pen and paper does.”（他们习惯于在笔记本电脑上打字，而笔记本电脑被认为缺乏像纸笔接触大脑那样的“触觉反馈”。）和“BBC Worklife website quotes Hetty Roessingh from the University of Calgary, who says that “taking notes by hand involves cognitive (认知的) engagement in summarizing, paraphrasing, organizing, concept and vocabulary mapping.””（BBC Worklife网站引用了Calgary大学的Hetty Rossingh的话，她说：“手写笔记涉及到总结、转述、组织、概念和词汇映射等认知活动。”）可知，一些专家认为学生们用纸笔记录笔记，有利于提升大脑的认知能力，选项A. Some experts believe your brain benefits from using pen and paper.（一些专家认为使用笔和纸对大脑有好处。）与其意思相符，有着概况的作用。故选A。
【18题详解】
根据第2题的“Some experts believe your brain benefits from using pen and paper.”（一些专家认为使用笔和纸对大脑有好处。），选项F. Others agree that handwriting may improve fine motor skills in your hands and fingers.（其他专家也同意书写可以提高手和手指的精细运动技能。）中主语与其有连续性，且指出了其他专家提出的使用纸笔在其他方面的好处，与上一句语意内容方向一致，衔接合理，符合语境。故选F。
【19题详解】
根据第四段首句“There are everyday benefits to using pen and paper too. ”（使用笔和纸也有日常的好处。）可知，本段主要讲述了使用纸笔的日常好处；结合后面列举的具体事例“Scribbling notes, shopping lists or messages on the back of an envelope can still be useful, quick and portable.”（在信封背面写下便条、购物清单或信息仍然是有用的、快速的和便携的。），选项G. And putting pen to paper in a letter to a friend or loved one can probably have the most impact.（给朋友或爱人提笔写信可能会产生最大的影响。）也是具体的使用纸笔的日常好处，承接前文，符合语境。故选G。
【20题详解】
本题为文章的总结段落的主题句，文章主要讲述了使用纸笔书写文本和信件的好处，选项D. So, while digital skills remain important, don’t quit your pens and pencils yet.（所以，虽然数字技能仍然很重要，但不要放弃你的钢笔和铅笔。）作为总结，呼吁大家不要放弃手中拿着的笔，合情合理；结合下一句“especially if your smartphone, tablet or laptop runs out of power!”（尤其是当你的智能手机、平板电脑或笔记本电脑没电的时候!），进一步强调了纸笔所独有的优势，突出了选项D中作者的意愿，符合语境。故选D。

A young person who was academically excellent applied for a manager’s post in an international company. He passed the written exam with ease, and in the group interview that followed, he impressed the interviewers with willy remarks, passion for work, and creative plans for the company’s future. After that, this young man had to face the final interview by the company’s director.
The young man walked into the manager’s office, feeling he could conquer the whole world with just one hand. The director shook hands with the young man and noticed the excitement and pride in his eyes. He looked into the young man’s resume(简历)and saw that the young person did exceptionally well throughout his study life. With a satisfied smile, the director started questioning him.
“Did you ever obtain any scholarship in your school or college?”
”No,“ replied the young man. ”Then who paid for your education?“
“My father passed away when I was three. It was my mother who paid for my tuition fees. She’s a farmer and works all day in the fields,”said the young man.
The director nodded and asked the young man to show his hands. Though confused, the young man held out his hands hesitantly, which were smooth and soft. Then the director asked if the young man had ever helped his mother with farm work. The young man said:"No, she always wanted me to focus on my academic work. Besides, she knows her work well and could do everything much faster than I could.”
Learning the reply, the director told the young man that when he returned to his home that day,he should clean his mother’s hands,and after that, he could come back and see him and report what he learned. Feeling there was a chance for him to get the job, the young man was delighted. When he returned home with a spring in his feel, he cheerfully requested his mother to let him clean her hands. Listening to this strange request, his mother felt astonished but happy. With mixed emotions, she showed her hands to him.

【答案】Possible version:
Now this young man started to clean his mother’s hand gently. For the first time, he noticed his mother’s hands were rough with cuts and calluses. Some of the cuts were so deep that she shivered with pain when they were cleaned. It was not until that moment that the young man started to understand the sacrifice his mother had made to ensure he could get a good education. Stroking his mother’s hands with both affection and guilt, he felt a lump in his throat, tears of admiration and sorrow streaming down his face.
The following day he went to the director’s office again. His face was calm, and the excitement and pride in his eyes were replaced by sincerity and gratitude. “Thank you for this valuable lesson,” said the young man with tears glittering in his eyes. Then he continued to tell the manager that he was regretful about being an insensitive son who had been obsessed with grades and career opportunities, neglecting how his mother had suffered all these years. The manager listened attentively and finally said with a smile curving his lips, “I’m glad you’ve gained the power of appreciation, which is an essential quality in a manager. You are hired. ”

阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
A
New Year’s celebrations take many forms, but most cultures have one thing in common—have a good time after a long, hard year. For much of the globe this involves drinking with friends until the sun comes up, singing together. But others have rather more curious habits, often filled with superstition (迷信).
In Denmark, people stand on chairs and jump off together as the clock strikes midnight, really leaping into the new year. The Danes also throw plates at their friends’ homes during the night-the more pieces you find outside your door in the morning the more popular you are said to be.
In Finland, say tour guides, people pour melted (熔化的) lead into cold water to predict the year ahead from the shape the metal forms. If the shape represents a ship it is said to predict travel, if it’s a ball, good luck.
The Dutch build massive bonfires with their Christmas trees and cat sugary donuts—one of many cultures to consume round New Year’s foods traditionally believed to represent good fortune.
Spaniards, in turn, cat a dozen grapes before the strike of midnight, each fruit representing a month that will either be sweet or sour.
In the Philippines, people wear polka dots (带圆点的服装) for good luck, while in some countries of South America people put on brightly coloured underwear to attract fortune—red for love and yellow for financial success.
Despite regional and cultural differences, for most the New Year’s festivities are a chance to let off steam before the annual cycle starts all over again. “This is a holiday that is about celebration and letting go,” explained George Washington University sociologist Amitai Etzioni.
1. In which country is the festival related to metal?
A. Denmark. B. Spain. C. Finland. D. The Netherlands.
2. What can we learn about New Year’s celebrations from the text?
A. The Danes throw grapes at their friends’ homes during the night.
B. Spaniards eat many donuts before the strike of midnight.
C. The Dutch build massive walls with their Christmas trees.
D. Some people in South America wear red underwear for love.
3. What does the underlined phrase “let off steam” in the last paragraph mean?
A. Get married. B. Get relaxed. C. Make money. D. Make friends.
【答案】1. C 2. D 3. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了世界各地新年庆祝活动形式，尤其是一些充满迷信的奇怪习惯。
【1题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“In Finland, say tour guides, people pour melted (熔化的) lead into cold water to predict the year ahead from the shape the metal forms. (导游说，在芬兰，人们把融化的铅倒入冷水中，通过金属形状来预测来年。)”可知，芬兰的节日和金属有关，故选C。
【2题详解】
细节理解题。根据第六段“while in some countries of South America people put on brightly coloured underwear to attract fortune—red for love and yellow for financial success.(而在南美洲的一些国家，人们会穿上色彩鲜艳的内衣来招财——红色代表爱情，黄色代表经济上的成功。)”可知，有些南美人为了爱情穿红色内衣，故选D。
【3题详解】
词句猜测题。根据划线词下一句“This is a holiday that is about celebration and letting go.(这是一个庆祝和放松的节日。) ” 可猜测“let off steam ”意思是放松，故选B。
B
I’ve been in an 18-year love-hate relationship with a black walnut tree.
It’s a unique tree. In late September or early October, falling fruits as hard as baseballs threaten the skulls (头骨) of you, your children, your neighbors and those that reside next door to them. Umbrellas in the yard are a must while dining in early August, and as for me, I wear my bike helmet while working in the garden.
The black walnut also releases a chemical substance through its roots as a competitive strategy. It’s poisonous to several common plants. There have been many new plant varieties that I brought home with hopes that maybe the black walnut would accept them, but they failed to flourish.
What does work are native plants that naturally grow in the area. Native plants are important to have around since they provide beneficial pollinators (传粉者) like birds, bees and butterflies with seeds and contribute to a healthy and biodiverse environment. Native plants for this area are generally easy to grow, so they experience less stress.
Have I thought of getting rid of this giant pain in my tiny backyard? Yes, however, getting rid of this tree standing at 50 feet with an 87-inch trunk is next to impossible. It’s also protected under the law. Rightfully so. Trees are important to the urban forest and for all of those that inhabit it.
Sometimes I think about my life without the black walnut. I can’t imagine a spring without the birds who arrive every year and loudly sing their songs before dawn. I’d miss falling asleep on lazy weekend afternoons as I look up into its leaves.
Every spring, I wonder what the season holds: What are the chances of being knocked unconscious while barbecuing? Like any good relationship, I’ll never be pleased. I’m stuck with this tree, so I’ll listen to its needs and give it the space it requires. In return, my walnut offers a habitat for wildlife and a reminder.
4. Why does the author wear a bike helmet while working in the garden?
A. To protect the injured skull. B. To prevent herself from sunburn.
C. To avoid being hit by the nuts. D. To reduce the chance of getting bitten by bees.
5. What is the tree’s survival strategy?
A. It attracts beneficial pollinators.
B. It lets out poison to drive away pests.
C. It produces a chemical fatal to some plants.
D. It competes for nutrition with similar species.
6. Which of the following DOESN’T account for the author’s love-hate relationship with the tree?
A. The volume of its fruits may bring inconvenience.
B. The tree outcompetes the native plants in the garden.
C. The tree is home to numerous birds and other creatures.
D. The presence of the tree takes up much space of the garden.
7. The author most probably got a reminder from the tree that ________.
A. it’s better to give than to take
B. trees and plants have their own ways to flourish
C. even a good relationship is not always trouble-free
D. acceptance, instead of resistance, is the better way to be
【答案】4. C 5. C 6. B 7. D

细节理解题。根据第二段“falling fruits as hard as baseballs threaten the skulls (头骨) of you, your children, your neighbors and those that reside next door to them. (掉落的果实会和棒球一样坚硬，可能伤到你、孩子、邻居和那些住在隔壁的人的脑袋。)”可知，作者在果园里劳动时，会佩戴一个自行车头盔，是为了保护头部不会被树上掉落的坚硬果实砸伤，故选C项。
【5题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“The black walnut also releases a chemical substance through its roots as a competitive strategy. It’s poisonous to several common plants. (作为一种竞争策略，黑胡桃也会通过根部释放一种化学物质。它对几种常见植物来说是有毒性的。)”可知，黑胡桃树的生存策略就是释放一种对其他一些常见植物物种有毒的物质，以独占生存资源。故选C项。
【6题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段“Native plants for this area are generally easy to grow, so they experience less stress. (这个地区的原生植物通常很容易生长，所以它们承受的压力较小。)”可知，在这个果园中，黑胡桃树在与当地原生植物的生存竞争中并未占据优势，原生植物长势繁荣，这并非是作者对黑胡桃树又爱又恨的原因之一。故选B项。
【7题详解】

(我有没有想过摆脱这个小小的后院的大麻烦吗？是的，然而，要摆脱这棵50英尺高、树干只有87英寸的树几乎是不可能的。)”和最后一段“I’m stuck with this tree, so I’ll listen to its needs and give it the space it requires. (我就与这棵树相伴，所以我会倾听它的需求，给它所需的空间。)”可知，作者从这棵树身上得到了这样启示：包容接纳，而非抗拒，会让生活更美好。故选D项。

If you’ve ever wondered who decides what sports to be included or left out at the Olympic Games, you’re probably not the only one, because the processes are a little complex and confusing.
It falls to the Executive Board of International Olympic Committee ( IOC ) to suggest which sports will be included and the rest of the IOC then votes according to a long list of standards: How much value the sport would add to the Olympic legacy (遗产); How long the sport has existed; How popular the sport is in the host country; How much it would cost to broadcast the events, and many other things.
Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games saw the inclusion of skateboarding, surfboarding, sport climbing and karate, all of which were selected by the IOC for the first time ever.
So, what contributes to å sport being left out? Having to limit the Games to a certain number of athletes, as well as scheduling needs can lead to some sports being left off the program, especially if they fall short of the above standards.
There’s perhaps no better example of this than softball and baseball. While both are included at Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games, it’s the first time they were included at Beijing 2008 Olympic Games. The IOC voted them out from London 2012 Olympic Games. Officials said that neither sport had global attraction.
But it’s not just the IOC that has the say. The host city can also play a role in the decision, and push for a particular sport for the year that it is hosting. For a real-world example, look no further than the 2024 Games to be held in Paris, which will see the inclusion of breakdancing as an Olympic sport for the first time.
8. What does the second paragraph focus on?
A. The voting process. B. The advantages of IOC.
C. The costs of the Games. D. The selecting standards.
9. Which was added to Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games for the first time?
A. Baseball. B. Breakdancing. C. Skateboarding. D. Softball.
10. Why was baseball left out at London 2012 Olympic Games?
A. It had too many players. B. It had a short history.
C. It was difficult to broadcast. D. It was not popular enough.
11. Who is most unlikely to have a say in selecting the Olympic sports?
A. The athletes. B. The Executive Board of IOC.
C. The host cities. D. International Olympic Committee.
【答案】8. D 9. C 10. D 11. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了奥委会确定奥运会比赛项目的程序及标准。
【8题详解】
主旨大意题。根据本段“It falls to the Executive Board of International Olympic Committee ( IOC ) to suggest which sports will be included and the rest of the IOC then votes according to a long list of standards:（由国际奥委会（IOC）执行委员会提出将包括哪些运动项目，然后由IOC其他成员根据一长串标准进行投票：） ”及后面的细节可知，本段主要介绍了奥运会项目的选择标准。故选D。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games saw the inclusion of skateboarding, surfboarding, sport climbing and karate, all of which were selected by the IOC for the first time ever.（2020年东京奥运会包括滑板、冲浪、运动攀岩和空手道，所有这些项目都是国际奥委会有史以来首次选定的。）”可知，2020年东京奥运会首次加入了滑板运动。故选C。

细节理解题。根据第五段“The IOC voted them out from London 2012 Olympic Games. Officials said that neither sport had global attraction. （国际奥委会投票决定他们退出2012年伦敦奥运会。官员们表示，这两项运动都没有全球吸引力。）”可知，baseball被砍掉的原因是它在全球的热度不够。故选D。
【11题详解】

The host city can also play a role in the decision, and push for a particular sport for the year that it is hosting.（但不仅仅是国际奥委会有发言权。主办城市也可以在决策中发挥作用，推动主办年份的特定体育项目。）”可推断，运动员很可能无权决定哪些项目可以进入奥运会。故选A。
D
Mosquito bites are unavoidable in summer—or is that so? Scientists recently found that mosquitoes are more attracted to some colors than others, which could possibly prove useful to those trying to avoid the annoying bites.
The study found that after a common type of mosquitoes smelled CO2 the gas humans breathe out—they decided to land on some colored dots (色点) but ignored others
“Imagine you’re on a sidewalk and you smell toasty,” the lead researcher said in a press release announcing the study’s findings. “That’s probably a sign that there’s a bakery nearby and you might start looking around for it. Here, we started to learn what visual elements that mosquitoes are looking for after smelling their own version of a bakery.”
The research team put different colored dots at the bottom of a box and sprayed (喷洒) them with CO2. They found that mosquitoes were drawn most to red, orange and black. They also found that mosquitoes ignored green, blue and white. When a researcher reached his hand into the box wearing a green glove, mosquitoes ignored it, even when it was sprayed with CO2.
Unfortunately, avoiding mosquitoes isn’t as easy as choosing the right color of clothes. Human skin delivers a vivid red-orange “signal” to mosquitoes, the researchers said, making it hard to hide completely
“We previously discovered there are three major hints that attract mosquitoes: your breath, your sweat and the temperature of your skin,” the lead researcher said. “Now we have found a fourth hint: the color red, which can not only be found on your clothes, but is also found in everyone’s skin. The shade of your skin doesn’t matter. We are all giving off a strong red feature.”
While the research found that the mosquitoes appeared to prefer certain colors, it did not measure whether wearing colors like green or blue would help keep away from the mosquitoes. The researchers hope that their findings can help find other methods to drive back the biting insects.
12. Why did the researchers spray the dots with CO2?
A. It drives mosquitoes away.
B. It is attractive to mosquitoes.
C. It prevents mosquitoes finding targets.
D. It’s a practical material to catch mosquitoes.
13. Which of the following colors causes the least attention from mosquitoes?
A. Red. B. Black C. Orange. D. Blue.
14. What does paragraph 6 focus on?
A. The features of human skin.
B. Factors that attract mosquitoes.
C. What elements mosquitoes ignore.
D. How to choose the color of clothes.
15. What may be the hopeful result of the study?
A. Mosquitoes will disappear someday.
B. Most people will wear colorful clothes.
C. The survival rate of mosquitoes will be affected.
D. More ways will be found to keep mosquitoes off.
【答案】12. B 13. D 14. B 15. D
【解析】

【15题详解】
细节理解题。根据第七段最后一句“The researchers hope that their findings can help find other methods to drive back the biting insects.”（研究人员希望他们的发现有助于探索其他驱散这种咬人昆虫的方法。）可知，该研究的发现有助于探索更多的方法驱散蚊子。故选D项。

When did you last write a letter by hand? In a digital world, where sending a text or email is more convenient than using snail mail, is traditional pen and paper dying out? Some people claim that writing has many benefits. So maybe it’s not time to put away your pen yet.
These days, when people request things in writing, a typed, electronic document will be accepted. ____16____. But crafting a handwritten document is unique: It requires planning and thought, and it helps you to remember spelling and punctuation.
____17____. This is particularly relevant for students. They are used to typing notes into a laptop, which is thought to lack the “tactile feedback (触觉反馈) ” to the brain that contact between pen and paper does. BBC Worklife website quotes Hetty Roessingh from the University of Calgary, who says that “taking notes by hand involves cognitive (认知的) engagement in summarizing, paraphrasing, organizing, concept and vocabulary mapping.”____18____.
There are everyday benefits to using pen and paper too. Scribbling notes, shopping lists or messages on the back of an envelope can still be useful, quick and portable.____19____. Pen pal writer Katherine Moller told the BBC: “...it is so personal and so precious to know someone chose to turn off the virtual world to spend some time with you.”
____20____especially if your smartphone, tablet or laptop runs out of power!
A. Some experts believe your brain benefits from using pen and paper
B. Doing this on a computer means it could be edited, saved and sent

【19题详解】
根据第四段首句“There are everyday benefits to using pen and paper too. ”（使用笔和纸也有日常的好处。）可知，本段主要讲述了使用纸笔的日常好处；结合后面列举的具体事例“Scribbling notes, shopping lists or messages on the back of an envelope can still be useful, quick and portable.”（在信封背面写下便条、购物清单或信息仍然是有用的、快速的和便携的。），选项G. And putting pen to paper in a letter to a friend or loved one can probably have the most impact.（给朋友或爱人提笔写信可能会产生最大的影响。）也是具体的使用纸笔的日常好处，承接前文，符合语境。故选G。
【20题详解】
本题为文章的总结段落的主题句，文章主要讲述了使用纸笔书写文本和信件的好处，选项D. So, while digital skills remain important, don’t quit your pens and pencils yet.（所以，虽然数字技能仍然很重要，但不要放弃你的钢笔和铅笔。）作为总结，呼吁大家不要放弃手中拿着的笔，合情合理；结合下一句“especially if your smartphone, tablet or laptop runs out of power!”（尤其是当你的智能手机、平板电脑或笔记本电脑没电的时候!），进一步强调了纸笔所独有的优势，突出了选项D中作者的意愿，符合语境。故选D。

考查定语从句关系词。句意：虚心听取别人的意见，特别是不同于自己的意见，有助于提高群众的积极性、智慧和力量。分析句子可知，“ 9 differ from one’s own”为定语从句，修饰先行词“those”，指“那些意见”，在从句中作主语，故应用关系代词which/that。故填which/that。
【45题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：这种方法已被中国人在日常生活中用于决策以确保成功。由句中谓语“has been adopted”可知，此处应为非谓语动词，作状语；结合句意，表示“方法被采用的目的”，应为目的状语，故用动词不定式。故填to secure。

A young person who was academically excellent applied for a manager’s post in an international company. He passed the written exam with ease, and in the group interview that followed, he impressed the interviewers with willy remarks, passion for work, and creative plans for the company’s future. After that, this young man had to face the final interview by the company’s director.
The young man walked into the manager’s office, feeling he could conquer the whole world with just one hand. The director shook hands with the young man and noticed the excitement and pride in his eyes. He looked into the young man’s resume(简历)and saw that the young person did exceptionally well throughout his study life. With a satisfied smile, the director started questioning him.
“Did you ever obtain any scholarship in your school or college?”
”No,“ replied the young man. ”Then who paid for your education?“
“My father passed away when I was three. It was my mother who paid for my tuition fees. She’s a farmer and works all day in the fields,”said the young man.
The director nodded and asked the young man to show his hands. Though confused, the young man held out his hands hesitantly, which were smooth and soft. Then the director asked if the young man had ever helped his mother with farm work. The young man said:"No, she always wanted me to focus on my academic work. Besides, she knows her work well and could do everything much faster than I could.”
Learning the reply, the director told the young man that when he returned to his home that day,he should clean his mother’s hands,and after that, he could come back and see him and report what he learned. Feeling there was a chance for him to get the job, the young man was delighted. When he returned home with a spring in his feel, he cheerfully requested his mother to let him clean her hands. Listening to this strange request, his mother felt astonished but happy. With mixed emotions, she showed her hands to him.

________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】Possible version:
Now this young man started to clean his mother’s hand gently. For the first time, he noticed his mother’s hands were rough with cuts and calluses. Some of the cuts were so deep that she shivered with pain when they were cleaned. It was not until that moment that the young man started to understand the sacrifice his mother had made to ensure he could get a good education. Stroking his mother’s hands with both affection and guilt, he felt a lump in his throat, tears of admiration and sorrow streaming down his face.
The following day he went to the director’s office again. His face was calm, and the excitement and pride in his eyes were replaced by sincerity and gratitude. “Thank you for this valuable lesson,” said the young man with tears glittering in his eyes. Then he continued to tell the manager that he was regretful about being an insensitive son who had been obsessed with grades and career opportunities, neglecting how his mother had suffered all these years. The manager listened attentively and finally said with a smile curving his lips, “I’m glad you’ve gained the power of appreciation, which is an essential quality in a manager. You are hired. ”
