    W: Let’s move one of the lamps down from the bedroom then. The blue one would look good on that table.
    M: You’re right.

    M: Speaking of that, I remember that last weekend I was outside when it rained hard suddenly. So I used a shared umbrella. I held the umbrella for only ten minutes and then it was broken. I didn’t know what happened.

    M: It’s the best way for people to communicate, in my opinion. You don’t need language. You don’t have to have anything in common. It’s easy to make new friends when you share a meal together.
    W: So, what are some of the differences in the food of different countries?
    M: Well, in the West, people eat a lot of bread, while in Asia, rice and noodles are more common. Beef is very common in countries like the United States, but it’s not as popular in Northern Europe.
    W: What do you think is the most important factor in cooking?
    M: I think that fresh local foods are the most important part of any type of cooking.

    【原文】Hi, Cathy, this is Pitt. I heard that during the Chinese Spring Festival holiday you won’t go back to your hometown in the States and will go to Germany for some traveling and then come back to China. I’m leaving you this voice message to invite you to come to our family’s Chinese New Year’s Eve dinner, say, on Feb. 4. My mother and I will start making dumplings around 4 p.m. and we’ll probably start having dinner at 6 p.m. If you’re interested in making dumplings, feel free to join us at 4 p.m. I’m afraid there will be very few buses or taxis running tomorrow afternoon. My father is happy to pick you up from your place. Just send me your address and tell me when you can come. After dinner, we will watch some Spring Festival shows on TV. The most interesting show starts at around 8 p.m. We usually stay up very late, so don’t worry about staying too long. Just let me know when you want to go back to your place. Looking forward to your earliest reply.
    第二部分阅读(共两节, 满分50分)
    第一节(共15小题;每小题2. 5分, 满分37. 5分)
    阅读下列短文, 从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
    A
    There’s no shortage of health food trends on TikTok, but which ones are actually sensible? And should you skip any of them altogether? We asked registered dietitian Vanessa Rissetto, and here’s what you need to know.
    Emily Mariko’s Salmon Bowl
    Made with rice, baked salmon, soy sauce and spicy mayo — and to be clear, there are a lot of different variations of it online — this passes Rissetto’s test because it’s healthy, fast, easy and has good flavor.
    Rissetto says that while she would recommend this recipe, she would also suggest changing the white rice for brown rice for increased nutrients and more fiber.
    Healthy Cookie Dough
    Cookie dough that’s healthy? This is too good to be true, right? The answer is probably yes.
    Rissctto says that while this may be healthy, it probably docsn’t taste good.
    “I’m certain this tastes like cardboard, ”she said. “If you don’t care about taste — then this is for you.”
    Lettuce Water For Sleep
    While harmless, the TikTok trend of pouring boiling water over romaine lettuce leaves to make “lettuce water” for better sleep probably won’t cure your sleep disorder — and it probably doesn’t taste great, either.
    “This is not a thing. There’s no evidence to prove it,” Rissetto said. “Instead, steep a banana peel in boiling water to help aid with sleep.”
    Nature’s Cereal
    As Rissetto points out, it’s basically a fruit smoothie bowl.
    “I am all for having berries and coconut water,” she said. “Nutrition-wise, this has lots of vitamins, antioxidants and fiber. It’s basically a fruit salad that would be super refreshing on a hot day or post-workout.”
    21. What is special about Emily Mariko’s salmon bowl?
    A. It doesn’t taste great. B. It is good for health.
    C. Its recipe is not fixed. D. It uses two kinds of rice.
    22. Which recipe doesn’t Rissetto recommend?
    A. Emily Mariko’s salmon bowl. B. Healthy cookie dough.
    C. Lettuce water for sleep. D. Nature’s cereal.
    23. Which food suits you best after playing a football match?
    A. Emily Mariko’s salmon bowl. B. Healthy cookie dough.
    C. Lettuce water for sleep. D. Nature’s cereal.
    【答案】21. C 22. C 23. D
    【解析】
    【导语】这是一篇说明文,文章介绍了抖音上几种流行的健康食品是否真的健康。
    【21题详解】
    细节理解题。根据Emily Mariko’s Salmon Bowl部分中“Made with rice, baked salmon, soy sauce and spicy mayo — and to be clear, there are a lot of different variations of it online (用米饭、烤鲑鱼、酱油和辣味蛋黄酱制作而成——需要澄清的是,网上有很多不同的版本)”可知,Emily Mariko’s Salmon Bowl这道菜没有固定食谱。故选C。
    【22题详解】
    细节理解题。根据Lettuce Water For Sleep部分中“While harmless, the TikTok trend of pouring boiling water over romaine lettuce leaves to make “lettuce water” for better sleep probably won’t cure your sleep disorder — and it probably doesn’t taste great, either.(虽然无害,但TikTok上的一种趋势是把沸水倒在长叶莴苣叶子上改善睡眠的‘生菜水’可能并不能治愈你的睡眠障碍,而且它的味道可能也不怎么样)”可知,Rissetto可能不推荐莴苣水用于睡眠。故选C。
    【23题详解】
    细节理解题。根据Nature’s Cereal部分中“It’s basically a fruit salad that would be super refreshing on a hot day or post-workout.(它基本上是一种水果沙拉,在大热天或锻炼后会非常清爽)”可知,Nature’s cereal这道菜适合锻炼后吃。故选D。
    B
    Andy Kong has worked very hard to get to where he is today. He credits becoming a millionaire by 20 to his strict Asian parents who tutored him at a young age by working for the family.
    Kong, of Danville, Virginia, started working when he was only nine. English wasn’t a strong suit for Andy’s parents, and that’s where he was able to assist his family the most. After school and on weekends he would help out at their family-owned restaurant and nail salons. Not only did he do the labor work, but he was also involved in creating online ads. This was his introduction to the world of online business.
    Andy started his Amazon business in the eighth grade, when he learned about Amazon. Dropshipping (代发货模式) from a kid he saw on Instagram, he got inspired and decided to give it a try. Unfortunately, the store eventually got shut down because he was impatient with the growth. Instead of considering it a failure, he viewed this experience as a life lesson and learned from his mistakes. Meanwhile, his parents never stopped trying to talk him into focusing on school and their retail business.
    “The biggest challenge when starting a business is getting someone to believe in you,” Andy says. He pushed through and did things for himself even when his loved ones discouraged it.
    In 2019, Andy met his now business partners, and together, they created an Amazon management company called Project WiFi. This Project has proven to be extremely successful. They currently help over 55 clients run their online businesses, and plan to help many more in the future.
    When asked about the secret to his success, Andy says, “Learning to sacrifice whether that’s family, friends, or soccer game for a single goal is the only way to succeed, rather than attempting multiple things. If it’s worth doing then it’s worth doing well with no shortcuts.”
    24. Why did Andy work in his parents’ shops at a young age?
    A. Because he could earn some pocket money.
    B. Because his parents weren’t fluent in English.
    C. Because his parents could help with his study.
    D. Because he could get access to the Internet.
    25. What does paragraph 3 mainly talk about?
    A. A new online business model. B. Results of working impatiently.
    C. Difficulties in Andy’s career. D. Andy’s tense family relationship.
    26. What does Andy think contributes to his success?
    A. His early working experiences. B. Lessons learned from his failures.
    C. Gaining other people’s trust. D. Focusing on one thing at a time.
    27. Which of the following can best describe Andy Kong’s personality?
    A. Committed and generous. B. Motivated and open-minded.
    C Creative and faithful. D. Hard-working and sociable.
    【答案】24. B 25. C 26. D 27. B
    【解析】
    【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了Andy Kong创业的过程。
    【24题详解】
    推理判断题。根据第二段的“English wasn’t a strong suit for Andy’s parents, and that’s where he was able to assist his family the most.(安迪的父母并不擅长英语,而这正是他能够最大限度地帮助家人的地方)”可知,安迪很小的时候就在父母的店里工作是因为他的父母英语不流利。故选B。
    【25题详解】
    主旨大意题。根据第三段的“Unfortunately, the store eventually got shut down because he was impatient with the growth.(不幸的是,由于他对增长缺乏耐心,这家店最终倒闭了)”可知,第三段主要讲的是安迪事业上的困难。故选C。
    【26题详解】
    细节理解题。根据最后一段的“Learning to sacrifice whether that’s family, friends, or soccer game for a single goal is the only way to succeed, rather than attempting multiple things.(学会为一个目标牺牲家庭、朋友或足球比赛是成功的唯一途径,而不是尝试多件事)”可知,安迪认为一次只专注于一件事促成了他的成功。故选D。
    【27题详解】
    推理判断题。根据第三段“Instead of considering it a failure, he viewed this experience as a life lesson and learned from his mistakes.(他没有认为这是一次失败,而是把这段经历视为人生的一课,并从错误中吸取教训)”可知,他是思想开明的,即open-minded;再根据倒数第三段的“He pushed through and did things for himself even when his loved ones discouraged it.(他坚持了下来,为自己做了一些事情,即使他爱的人劝阻他这么做)”可知,他是目的明确的,即motivated。故选B。
    C
    Today, the Vikings are mostly known as violent pirates (海盗). But they were also traders. At their height, the Vikings attacked, settled or traded on four continents.
    All of their travel, trade and warfare were made possible by Viking ships, which were far more advanced than anything else sailing around Europe at the time. The most famous, and most feared, was the drekar. At sea, these ships could move quickly thanks to their large sails. The hulls (船体) of the ships were shallow and fat, which made them ride high in the water. The ships were also light enough that they could be carried from one body of water to another over short sections of land. This greatly extended their range.
    But Viking ships weren’t just built for warfare. Another type, called the knarr, had cargo (货物) holds built in the hull. One such cargo ship was capable of carrying 24 tons. The knarrs would have looked similar to the drekars except they were longer, fatter and taller. These were the backbones of the Viking empire, which they used to carry everything from gold coins to spices and fine fabrics.
    Both the drekar and the knarr were built using the same method. Traditionally, oceangoing ships have used a keel (龙骨), shaped like the fin of a fish. The keel sinks into the water below the hull. It helps the ship maintain a straight line through the water and counters the force of the wind against the sail, which otherwise might blow the ship over. Viking ships had no deep keel. Instead, they were built fat enough to carry lots of soldiers or pieces of cargo whose weight helped keep the ship planted in the water.
    Viking ships were so advanced for their tine that they often were the biggest, tallest and most striking ships many people had ever seen. A monk at the St. Omar Monastery, in Franco, wrote this description of a royal Viking ship in 1013.
    “On one side lions molded in gold were to be seen on the ships, on the other birds on the tops of the poles indicated by their movements the winds as they blew…”
    The Vikings built a wealthy empire through trade as well as robbery and used their wealth to continuously improve their ships.
    28. What does the author intend to tell us?
    A. The Vikings were not violent pirates but traders.
    B. The Vikings used to take a lead in the world trade.
    C. Viking ships could carry more cargo than ships today.
    D. Viking ships contributed to the extension of their empire.
    29. What can we infer about the knarrs?
    A. They were not designed for warfare.
    B. They were faster than the drekars.
    C They were designed to carry soldiers.
    D. They served the same purpose as drekars.
    30. What do the Vikings’ ships and the traditional oceangoing ships have in common?
    A. They both use a deep keel shaped like the fin of a fish.
    B. They both make the hull shallow and fat with large sails.
    C. They both take measures to keep the ship planted in water.
    D. They both install something to counter the force of wind.
    31. Why does the author refer to a monk’s description of a Viking ship?
    A. To show how advanced Viking ships were for their time.
    B. To show how interested the monk was in traveling by sea.
    C. To show that Viking ships were designed in a strange way.
    D. To show that Viking ships were continuously improved.
    【答案】28. D 29. A 30. C 31. A
    【解析】
    【导语】本文是一篇说明文,主要介绍的是维京人所建的两种船drekar和knarr的相关情况。
    【28题详解】
    推理判断题。根据第二段的“All of their travel, trade and warfare were made possible by Viking ships, which were far more advanced than anything else sailing around Europe at the time.(他们所有的旅行、贸易和战争都是由维京船只实现的,这些船只比当时在欧洲航行的任何船只都先进得多)”和最后一段的“The Vikings built a wealthy empire through trade as well as robbery and used their wealth to continuously improve their ships.(维京人通过贸易和抢劫建立了一个富有的帝国,并利用他们的财富不断改进他们的船只)”可知,作者想告诉我们北欧海盗船只为他们帝国的扩张做出了贡献。故选D。
    【29题详解】
    细节理解题。根据第三段的“But Viking ships weren’t just built for warfare. Another type, called the knarr, had cargo (货物) holds built in the hull. One such cargo ship was capable of carrying 24 tons. The knarrs would have looked similar to the drekars except they were longer, fatter and taller. These were the backbones of the Viking empire, which they used to carry everything from gold coins to spices and fine fabrics.(但维京船只不仅仅是为战争而建造的。另一种类型,称为knarr,在船体中建造了货舱。一艘这样的货船能载重24吨。knars看起来和drekars很相似,只是它们更长、更宽、更高。这些是维京帝国的支柱,他们用来运输从金币到香料和高级织物的所有东西)”可知,knars不是为战争而设计的。故选A。
    【30题详解】
    细节理解题。根据第四段的“Both the drekar and the knarr were built using the same method. Traditionally, oceangoing ships have used a keel (龙骨), shaped like the fin of a fish. The keel sinks into the water below the hull. It helps the ship maintain a straight line through the water and counters the force of the wind against the sail, which otherwise might blow the ship over.(drekar和knarr都是用同样的方法建造的。传统上,远洋船只使用龙骨,形状像鱼鳍。龙骨沉入船体下面的水中。它可以帮助船只在水中保持一条直线,并抵消风对帆的力量,否则可能会把船吹翻。)”可知,维京人的船和传统的远洋船的共同之处在于,它们都采取措施让船停在水里,故选C。
    【31题详解】
    推理判断题。根据倒数第三段的“Viking ships were so advanced for their tine that they often were the biggest, tallest and most striking ships many people had ever seen. A monk at the St. Omar Monastery, in Franco, wrote this description of a royal Viking ship in 1013.(海盗船在当时是如此先进,以至于它们往往是许多人见过的最大、最高和最引人注目的船只。佛朗哥圣奥马尔修道院的一位僧侣在1013年写下了对皇家海盗船的描述。)”可知,作者提到了一个僧侣对海盗船的描述是为了展示当时维京船只的先进程度。故选A。
    D
    Every language and culture has curse words(脏话). What gives a curse word its power is partly its meaning and partly its sound. “In English, for example, curse words tend to contain a high percentage of plosive sounds—including P, T and K, ”said Ryan McKay, a psychologist at University of London.
    Dr. McKay teamed up with his colleague Shiri Lev-Ari to learn whether this familiar pattern went beyond English. They wondered whether it might even represent what’s called sound symbolism. Sound symbolism is when a word sounds like what it means.
    The researchers first asked fluent speakers of Hebrew, Hindi, Hungarian, Korean and Russian to list the most vulgar(粗俗的) words they could think of. Once they’d made a list of each language’s most frequently used curse words, the researchers compared these with neutral words from the same language. In these languages, they didn’t find the plosive sounds that seem common in English curse words. “Instead, we found that the vulgar words were defined by what they lacked: the approximant sounds that include letters I, L, R, W and Y, ”Dr. Lev-Ari said.
    Next, the scientists invited 215 native speakers of six languages: Arabic, Chinese, Finnish, French, German and Spanish. The participants listened to pairs of words in a language they didn’t speak, and guessed which word in each pair was offensive. In reality, all the words were invented. For example, the researchers started with the Albanian word “zog, ” for “bird, ”and created the pair of fake words “yog" and “tsog. ”Participants were more likely to guess that words without approximants, such as “tsog, ” were curses.
    Finally, the researchers combed through the dictionary for English curse words and their cleaned-up versions. Once again, the clean versions included more of the sounds I, L, R, W and Y.
    A 20th-century linguistic(语言学的)principle claimed that the sounds of words were arbitrary: Any word could have any meaning. With curse words, though, as in other cases of sound symbolism, “the sounds themselves seem to carry meaning, ”said Lev-Ari. “That’s a new thing, ”said linguist Benjamin Bergen. “Curse words across languages, unrelated to each other, may pattern similarly. ”He also pointed out, to make sure the pattern of approximants missing from curses isn’t an accident, it would be nice to find it in an even larger sample of languages.
    32. What is the purpose of McKay and Lev-Ari’s research?
    A. To analyze a phenomenon. B. To confirm an assumption.
    C. To explain a definition. D. To challenge a theory.
    33. What were the participants asked to do in the second part of the research?
    A. To decide which curse words are used more frequently.
    B. To make up new curse words from real words.
    C. To guess a word’s offensiveness according to its sound.
    D. To identify the approximants in curse words.
    34. According to Lev-Ari, which of the four is likely to sound offensive?

    35. What can we learn from the last paragraph?
    A. The old linguistic principle of sounds and meanings is wrong.
    B. In sound symbolism, a word’s sound represents its meaning.
    C. The research reveals the similarities between different languages.
    D. The result of the research is not fully accepted by scientists.
    【答案】32. B 33. C 34. A 35. D
    【解析】
    【导语】这是一篇说明文。主要介绍了一项研究表明每种语言和文化都有脏话。脏话的力量部分来自它的意思,部分来自它的发音,但是研究结果还需要进一步的证实。
    【32题详解】
    推理判断题。根据第一段中“In English, for example, curse words tend to contain a high percentage of plosive sounds—including P, T and K, ”said Ryan McKay, a psychologist at University of London.”(伦敦大学的心理学家瑞恩·麦凯说:“以英语为例,骂人的话往往含有很高比例的爆破音,包括P、T和K。”)以及第二段中“Dr. McKay teamed up with his colleague Shiri Lev-Ari to learn whether this familiar pattern went beyond English. They wondered whether it might even represent what’s called sound symbolism.”(麦凯博士与他的同事希里·列弗-阿里(Shiri Lev-Ari)合作,研究这种熟悉的模式是否适用于英语以外的语言。他们想知道这是否代表了所谓的声音象征主义。)可推知,麦凯和列弗-阿里研究的目的是证实一种假设。故选B项。
    【33题详解】
    细节理解题。根据第四段中“Next, the scientists invited 215 native speakers of six languages: Arabic, Chinese, Finnish, French, German and Spanish. The participants listened to pairs of words in a language they didn’t speak, and guessed which word in each pair was offensive.”(接下来,科学家们邀请了215名以阿拉伯语、汉语、芬兰语、法语、德语和西班牙语为母语的人。参与者听了几组他们不会说的语言的单词,并猜测每组单词中哪个是冒犯性的。)可知,在第二部分研究中,参与者被要求根据一个词的发音来猜测它的冒犯性。故选C项。
    【34题详解】
    推理判断题。根据第三段中“Instead, we found that the vulgar words were defined by what they lacked: the approximant sounds that include letters I, L, R, W and Y, ”Dr. Lev-Ari said.”(“相反,我们发现粗俗词汇是由它们所缺乏的东西来定义的:包括字母I、L、R、W和Y在内的近似音。” 列弗-阿里说道。)可知,结合四个选项单词,只有A项tusck没有这五个字母I、L、R、W和Y以及其字母在内近似的发音。BCD选项都涉及到这五个字母的发音。故选A项。
    【35题详解】
    推理判断题。根据最后一段中“That’s a new thing, ”said linguist Benjamin Bergen. “Curse words across languages, unrelated to each other, may pattern similarly. ” He also pointed out, to make sure the pattern of approximants missing from curses isn’t an accident, it would be nice to find it in an even larger sample of languages.”(语言学家本杰明·卑尔根说:“这是一个新事物。“跨语言的脏话,彼此之间没有关联,可能会有相似的模式。”他还指出,为了确保诅咒中缺少近似值的模式不是偶然,最好能在更大量的语言样本中找到它。)可推知,从最后一段我们能了解这项研究的结果没有被科学家们完全接受。故选D项。
    第二节(共5小题;每小题2 . 5分, 满分12 . 5分)
    阅读下面短文, 从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
    In theory, modern smartphones can last hundreds of hours on a single charge. ____36____
    Manufacturers love to use laboratory conditions to advertise great numbers, most of which don’t match real-world use. Here we have some saving tricks that actually work.
    Delete apps you don’t use. On average, smartphone users download about 42 apps but use only ten daily. An easy way to preserve battery life? ____37____ Deleting an app that you don’t use is a simple way to free up storage space on your device and reduce the burden of your battery.
    ____38____A phone’s single biggest battery drain is the fact that it takes a lot of energy to keep your phone’s screen lit up, and we often leave it on accidentally, even if we’re not looking at the screen. The solution is to set your device to turn off its screen after 30 seconds or a minute.
    Dim the screen. Viewing your phone’s millions of pixels at full brightness is a guaranteed battery drain. Even your phone’s auto-brightness feature will sometimes overdo it, meaning you could be losing precious hours of battery life. Try dimming your display a little at a time. ____39____
    Go ahead and charge it. You’ve probably heard the classic advice about charging batteries: Let your battery drain all the way, then charge to 100 percent and repeat. The idea is that you are teaching your battery to “remember” its full charge capacity, rather than confusing it with periodic, inconsistent charges. ____40____ So instead of running out the door with 50 percent juice, consider plugging in your phone for 15 minutes before you leave.
    A. Get rid of the others.
    B. Decrease display time.
    C. But it’s not the case in practice.
    D. Turn off the ones that you don’t use.
    E. You’ll be surprised how quickly your eyes adjust.
    F. It doesn’t consume as much battery power as we think.
    G. Actually most smartphone batteries don’t need special treatment.
    【答案】36. C 37. A 38. B 39. E 40. G
    【解析】
    【导语】本文是一篇说明文,主要讲的是保持电池电量的方法。
    【36题详解】
    空前说“In theory, modern smartphones can last hundreds of hours on a single charge.(理论上,现代智能手机充一次电可以续航数百小时)”,空格处应该说实际上的情况,实际上的情况应该与理论上相反,C选项“But it’s not the case in practice.(但实际情况并非如此)”说明了实际情况与理论上的相反,因此承接上文,符合语境,故选C。
    【37题详解】
    本段主题句是“Delete apps you don’t use.(删除你不使用的应用程序)”,空前说“On average, smartphone users download about 42 apps but use only ten daily.(智能手机用户平均下载42个应用,但每天只使用10个)”,空后说“Deleting an app that you don’t use is a simple way to free up storage space on your device and reduce the burden of your battery.(除你不使用的应用程序是释放设备存储空间和减轻电池负担的简单方法)”,因此空格处应该说保持电池寿命的简单方法就是删除除了每天会使用的10个程序之外的其他应用,A选项“Get rid of the others.(把其他都去掉)”说明了去除10个以外的其他的,因此承上启下,符合语境,故选A。
    【38题详解】
    空格处是本段的主题句,由空后的“A phone’s single biggest battery drain is the fact that it takes a lot of energy to keep your phone’s screen lit up, and we often leave it on accidentally, even if we’re not looking at the screen. The solution is to set your device to turn off its screen after 30 seconds or a minute.(手机最大的电池消耗是,保持手机屏幕亮着需要大量能量,而我们经常不小心让手机亮着,即使我们没有看屏幕。解决办法是设置你的设备在30秒或一分钟后关闭屏幕)”可知,本段主要讲的是要减少屏幕的显示时间,B选项“Decrease display time.(减少显示时间)”说明了要减少屏幕显示时间,概括了本段内容,可作为主题句,故选B。
    【39题详解】
    空前说“Try dimming your display a little at a time.(试着一次把屏幕调暗一点)”,眼睛看暗一点的屏幕应该有个适应的过程,空格处应该对这个适应的过程进行说明,E选项“You’ll be surprised how quickly your eyes adjust.(你会惊讶地发现你的眼睛适应得如此之快)”是对眼睛的适应过程进行说明,因此承接上文,符合语境,故选E。
    【40题详解】
    空前说“You’ve probably heard the classic advice about charging batteries: Let your battery drain all the way, then charge to 100 percent and repeat. The idea is that you are teaching your battery to “remember” its full charge capacity, rather than confusing it with periodic, inconsistent charges.(你可能听过关于电池充电的经典建议:让电池电量一路耗尽,然后充满电,然后重复这一过程。这个想法是你在教你的电池“记住”它的满电量,而不是把它与周期性的、不一致的电量混淆)”,空后说“So instead of running out the door with 50 percent juice, consider plugging in your phone for 15 minutes before you leave.(所以,与其带着50%的电量跑出门,不如考虑在你离开之前给手机充电15分钟)”,空格处应该讲实际的情况,应该不是你听说的这样,G选项“Actually most smartphone batteries don’t need special treatment.(事实上,大多数智能手机电池都不需要特殊处理)”说明实际上的情况和前面描述的是不一样的,因此承上启下,符合语境,故选G。

    阅读下面短文, 在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。
    There is nothing quite so French as a baguette—a long, thin stick of bread that’s found in every French bakery in the world. ____56____ this traditional food isn’t just a snack; the baguette is an important part of French culture.
    According to one legend, the baguette ____57____ (create) in Austria by a baker who introduced the steam oven to France in 1839. This baking method made it possible to bake bread with a crispy crust (酥皮) and light center.
    Baguettes grew in ____58____ (popular) in France throughout the 19th century. Early baguettes were much larger than those of today. ____59____ (measure) around two meters long, these baguettes were carried by delivery women, who piled them like firewood on their backs. When ____60____ (serve), these huge baguettes were commonly laid along the dinner table, as they were too long to fit the table’s width!
    While the bread dates back to the 1800s, the term baguette wasn’t regularly used until the 1920s, ____61____ a new law prevented bakers from working before 4:00 a. m. Following the law’s introduction, bakers started making bread with a long, thin shape so that it would bake ____62____ (fast) and be ready in time for breakfast. Baguette began to be used to refer to this fast-baking bread.
    Baguette eating comes with ____63____ (it) own set of customs. For example, it’s considered unlucky to place a baguette upside down on a table. And baguettes are usually broken apart by hand during meals, not sliced ____64____ a knife. However you enjoy them, just remember that you’re not just eating bread, you’re eating ____65____ symbol of France!
    【答案】56. But##Yet
    57. was created
    58. popularity
    59. Measuring
    60. served 61. when
    62. faster 63. its
    64. with 65. a
    【解析】
    【导语】本文是一篇说明文,主要介绍的是法棍面包的相关情况。
    【56题详解】
    考查连词。句意:但是,这种传统食物不仅仅是零食。由“the baguette is an important part of French culture”可知,句子表示“但是,这种传统食物不仅仅是零食”,空格处意为“但是”,用but/yet表转折,位于句首,首字母大写,故填But/Yet。
    57题详解】
    考查时态,语态和主谓一致。句意:根据一个传说,法棍面包是由奥地利的一位面包师在1839年将蒸汽炉引入法国后发明的。法棍面包是被发明,由“in 1839”可知,句子描述过去的事情,因此空格处是一般过去时的被动语态,主语baguette是单数,因此空格处用was created。故填was created。
    【58题详解】
    考查名词。句意:整个19世纪,法棍面包在法国越来越受欢迎。空格处用名词作宾语,popular的名词是popularity,意为“受欢迎程度”,是不可数名词,故填popularity。
    【59题详解】
    考查非谓语动词。句意:这些长约两米的法棍由快递员携带,她们把它们像柴火一样堆在背上。句中谓语是were carried,空格处用非谓语动词,measure是不及物动词,意为“(尺寸、长短、数量等)量度为”,baguettes和measure是主谓关系,因此空格处用现在分词表主动,位于句首,首字母大写,故填Measuring。
    【60题详解】
    考查时态,语态,主谓一致和省略。句意:当这些巨大的法棍面包端上来时,通常是沿着餐桌摆放的,因为它们太长了,不适合餐桌的宽度!根据语境可知,此处表示“当这些巨大的法棍面包端上来时”,when引导的时间状语从句是when they are served,从句主语和主句主语一致,且从句中有be动词时,可省略从句中的主语和be动词,因此空格处是served。故填served。
    【61题详解】
    考查定语从句。句意:虽然这种面包的历史可以追溯到19世纪,但baguette这个词直到20世纪20年代才被经常使用,当时一项新法律禁止面包师在凌晨4点之前工作。空格处引导的是非限制性定语从句,从句中不缺主语或宾语,先行词1920s是时间,因此空格处用关系副词when,故填when。
    【62题详解】
    考查比较级。句意:随着法律的引入,面包师开始把面包做得又长又薄,这样面包烤得更快,可以及时用作早餐。由“bakers started making bread with a long, thin shape”可知,句子表示“面包师开始把面包做得又长又薄,这样面包烤得更快”,空格处用比较级faster。故填faster。
    【63题详解】
    考查物主代词。句意:吃法棍面包有自己的一套习俗。one’s own意为“某人自己的”,因此空格处用物主代词its,故填its。
    【64题详解】
    考查介词。句意:用餐时,法棍面包通常用手掰开,而不是用刀切成薄片。由“baguettes are usually broken apart by hand during meals”可知,句子表示“法棍面包通常用手掰开,而不是用刀切成薄片”,空格处意为“用”,用介词with,故填with。
    【65题详解】
    考查冠词。句意:不管你喜欢吃什么,记住你吃的不只是面包,你吃的是法国的象征!symbol是可数名词,表泛指,前面要加不定冠词,symbol是辅音音素开头,因此不定冠词用a,故填a。

    67. 阅读下面材料,根据共内容和所给段落汗头语续写两段,使之构成一篇究整的短文。
    I was twenty then, teaching a class of thirty students in Toronto including Mike, a 10-year-old street kid. Having lost his father and mother, he lived with a mentally-disturbed grandmother.
    He was always hungry, so each day I’d take him for breakfast before class. Each noon after I shared my lunch with him, I taught him new skills—using a microscope, constructing a camera etc.
    One day Mike told me of his dream. Most kids in the class wanted to be doctors, teachers or some such thing, but not Mike! His desire was to be a gangster (强盗)! And he was serious about it.
    I believed all children had a gift for what he wanted to be. If he wanted to be a gangster, I’d do all I could to help him become the very best “gangster” .
    I had a plan. Every Saturday after we had breakfast, I took him to the Law Library of the city. I explained to him a good gangster had to know something about criminal law, and reading up on law was the only way to learn. His young mind was interested, and he dove in.
    That was how we spent each Saturday morning that year. I’d drop him off at the law library. Three hours later, I’d return, pick him up for lunch and after a review of his morning’s work, take him home.
    The following year I taught in another school far away, which prevented me continuing to participate physically with him on Saturday mornings. But I provided him with public transportation tickets so he could keep up his regular study at the library.
    Later I got married and moved to London. Sadly, and to my great regret, I lost contact with Mike.
    Years passed. I often thought of him, wondering what had become of him. Then, one day, I was back in Toronto on business, looking up the number of a former colleague in the telephone directory, and there, Mike’s name as part of a title of “JUDGES and LAWYERS” danced off the page into my eyes.
    注意:
    1. 续写词数应为150左右;

    【答案】 I wondered, “Could it be him?” I dialed the number, gave my full name to a secretary and was put on hold. A long fifteen seconds later, a gentleman was on the line. His opening statement was, “Mr. Kowal (or whatever), I’ve really … missed you.” Then there was silence. Tears welling up in my eyes, I blurted out between sobs, “Mike, I only wish I’d kept in touch with you all these years. I’m really proud of you.” In a trembling voice on the other side, Mike answered, “I wouldn’t be here now if it weren’t for you.”
    When we were able to get together, he told me his road to the law. Studying law in the library enabled him to explore his inner depths—the “gangster” he had wanted to be was something of a hero protecting the disadvantaged with knowledge. He studied all the way to the law university while working part-time for his education fees. Now he had risen to be one of the most successful criminal lawyers in Canada. He owed all to me while I thought the greatest good we teachers could do for the students was to assist in revealing the best of their own.
    【解析】
    【导语】本文以人物为线索展开,讲述了作者20岁时在多伦多教书,有一个学生叫迈克,是街头男孩,作者给他带早餐,分享午餐,教他一些技能,当迈克告诉作者自己想成为歹徒时,作者觉得有必要帮他成为最好的歹徒,于是每周六带他去图书馆学习法律,后来作者结婚了,搬走了,和迈克失去了联系,很多年后作者想知道他后来怎么样了,作者发现迈克的名字作为“法官和律师”标题的一部分。
    【详解】1.段落续写:
    ①由第一段首句内容“我想:“会是他吗?””可知,第一段可描写作者和迈克重新取得联系。
    ②由第二段首句内容“当我们能在一起时,他告诉了我他的法律之路。”可知,第二段可描写迈克是如何学习法律,成为律师的以及作者的感悟。
    2.续写线索:拨电话——迈克接电话——作者和迈克对话——迈克学习和兼职——成为律师——作者感悟
    3.词汇激活
    行为类
    ①接电话:on the line/answer the phone
    ②学习:study/learn
    ③成为:rise to be/become
    情绪类
    ①哭:tears welling up in my eyes/tears come to my eyes
    ②骄傲:be proud of/take pride in
    【点睛】[高分句型1] I wouldn’t be here now if it weren’t for you.(由if引导的条件状语从句)
    [高分句型2] He owed all to me while I thought the greatest good we teachers could do for the students was to assist in revealing the best of their own.(由that引导的宾语从句,省略了that和that引导的限制性定语从句,省略了that)
