A

When my son joined the high-school wrestling team last fall during COVID-19, my 83-year-old dad also asked me to ask if they needed an assistant coach. I wondered how the coach would feel about my son’s grandfather asking to help, given that it was over 60 years ago that he wrestled? “He wrestled in university,” I said.

A few days before the first practice, I e-mailed the coach to tell him that my son’s grandfather was 83. I was nervous. What if he wasn’t what they were looking for? In the e-mail, I assured the coach he was in good health. I pointed out that his hearing aids had sat unused for over five years. He just didn’t like wearing them.

As I dropped my dad and 16-year-old son off for their first wrestling practice, my dad turned to my son, “I am not going to embarrass you, am I?”

“Not too much,” my son replied.

At the first practice, Dad met the coach and told him he would do anything he needed. When he and my son returned, they were both overjoyed. Dad made the team, but “God, I wish I could hear the coach!” he said. One day, he realized he forgot his hearing aids as I dropped him off. We turned back. “I need these to hear what the coach is talking about,” he reminded me.

In his free time, Dad went to the library and he borrowed the book Wrestling for Dummies. He read up on different moves and the scoring system. “It is a lot different from my university days,” he told me.

The coach gave him a team sweatshirt with the logo of the school on the front and “Wrestling” on the back. He wears the sweatshirt to every practice.

COVID-19 has not allowed me to watch any of the practices or meets. I rely on my father to give me the play-by-play of what is happening in the wrestling room. He is energetic. I’m proud to be a wrestling daughter.

1. What do we know about the author’s dad?

A. He still has good hearing in his 80s.

B. He was a wrestler at university.

C. He taught his grandson wrestling at home.

D. He lied about his age when applying for the role.

2. What happened after the author’s dad joined the wrestling team?

A. The author’s son felt extremely embarrassed.

B. He refused to wear his hearing aids during practice.

C. He tried to improve his wrestling knowledge.

D. He offered to design the team sweatshirt.

3. What is the author’s attitude toward her dad joining the wrestling team?

A. Supportive. B. Anxious. C. Opposed. D. Reserved.

【答案】1. B    2. C    3. A

Chinese astronauts sent back a science lesson from the country’s under construction space station. The lesson focused on physics, aiming to illustrate how the weightless environment affects buoyancy (浮力), the movement of objects and optics (光学).

Students from five cities asked the astronauts about living conditions in space and were treated to a virtual tour of the station. Wang Yaping, the only woman aboard the station, served as the main instructor, while Ye Guangfu assisted and commander-in-chief Zhai Zhigang worked the camera.

The three arrived at the station in October, 2021 for about a six-month stay, mainly aimed to prepare the main Tianhe module (舱) for the arrival of two additional modules named Mengtian and Wentian ahead of completion by the end of 2022. The crew is assessing living conditions in the Tianhe module and conducting experiments in space medicine and other areas.

Wang became the first Chinese woman to conduct a spacewalk when she and Zhai spent six hours outside the module fixing equipment and carrying out tests alongside the station’s robotic service arm.

The mission of Shenzhou-13 is China’s longest one since it first put a human in space in 2003, becoming only the third county to do so after Russia and the US. China has also pushed ahead with unmanned missions, and is lunar exploration program generated media buzz when its Yutu 2 rover sent back pictures of what was described by some as a “mystery hut”, but most likely only was a rock of some sort. The rover is the first to be placed on the little-explored far side of the moon, while China’s Chang’e 5 probe returned lunar rocks to Earth for the first time since the 1970s. A Chinese rover, meanwhile, is searching for evidence of life on Mars.

4. What is the main task of the three crew in China’s space station?

A. To give lessons about physical principles. B. To prepare for the station’s expansion.

C. To test the station’s robotic service arm. D. To do a spacewalk outside the module.

5. Which of the following can best replace the underlined word “assessing” in Paragraph 3?

A. judging B. updating C. adjusting D. repairing

6. What can be implied in the last paragraph?

A. China has found some strange huts on the moon.

B. China has found evidence of life on Mars.

C. China is preparing to find a living place on Mars.

D. China has made great achievements in space exploration.

7. What might be the best title for the text?

A. Chinese astronauts test new technology to explore space

B. Chinese female astronauts prepares for walking outside in space

C. Chinese astronauts give a science lesson from the space station

D. Chinese astronauts expand the module into a big station

Listening to music while studying or doing homework is a very common habit among students.

The research in 1972 showed that there was an increase in the performance of workers when listening to music. However, this research was limited, and was only used to study a very specific and representative working environment at the time-factories. Workforce tasks were repetitive, predictable and boring.

But what about the complex (复杂) and creative jobs? What about studying complex academic programs?

It seems that when the work at hand forces us to really focus on what we are doing, the presence of the music is a burden that we must avoid. For example, the research published in Psychological Reports found that when some volunteers had to choose a piece of music and listen to it while studying or doing homework, they performed worse than those who did not choose and simply accomplished the task without listening to music.

In other words, even though music is used for studying, it may just be because you like the music, not because it improves memorization and learning outcomes.

Why is it not good to listen to music while studying? The answer lies in two concepts: multitasking (多任务化) and attentional concentration. Multitasking is the ability to perform more than one task at the same time and is closely related to working memory. This type of memory is responsible for keeping in mind the elements with which we work in real time.

Attentional concentration is how the brain directs mental processes toward solving some problems and not others. When we focus on something, we are using a large part of our nervous system to fix it. For this, you have to pay the price for neglecting other functions.

8. What was the disadvantage of the research in 1972?

A. A short length of time. B. A shortage of researchers.

C. A single working environment. D. A small number of participants.

9. What did the research published in Psychological Reports prove about listening to music?

A. It didn’t make any difference. B. It improved participants’ efficiency.

C. It helped participants to concentrate. D. It affected participants’ performance.

10. What’s the purpose of the last two paragraphs?

A To make comments. B. To explain reasons.

C. To draw conclusions. D. To make suggestions.

【答案】8. C    9. D    10. B

47. 阅读下面短文，根据所给情节进行续写，使之构成一个完整的故事。

It was my twelfth birthday, and what I really wanted was a new bicycle. But I knew my family couldn’t afford one.

A new bike was just a dream, so I wanted a nightstand (床头柜). I figured that at least I would have a safe place to keep my private things. So I asked my parents for a nightstand with lockable drawer (抽屉).

We went to the secondhand furniture store and found an old, dark brown nightstand. It didn’t look too cool, but at least it had drawers that I could keep locked. I decided that I would paint it to make it look better.

After we took it home, I was getting ready to paint it. When I pulled the drawers out, I felt something stuck (卡住) at the back of the bottom drawer. I reached in all the way to the back and was surprised to find a bag.

When opening the bag, I realized that there were some papers in it which were some kind of official-looking documents (文件). And beneath were a bunch of dollar bills! Talk about finding a treasure! And on my birthday!

I went ahead and read the papers, which turned out to be a will (遗嘱). Some old lady was leaving her savings to her son and grandchildren. The old lady must have died and nobody knew the money. Her family donated the nightstand to the secondhand furniture store and it was now in my hands.

I counted the money, over 1,000 dollars in total. I was going crazy. With this money I could buy the coolest bicycle. I could even buy bicycles for my younger brothers. Maybe I could also get my parents a car.

What a dilemma! I could keep it and get all kinds of things for myself and my family. Or I could give it all back. “Somebody helps me with this!” I begged. But I really didn’t need anyone else to give me the answer. I already knew right from wrong. I decided not to fail this test. It was a test of honor-my honor.

注意：

1.所续写短文的词数应为150词左右；

2.至少使用5个短文中标有下划线的关键词语；

3.续写部分分为两段，每段的开头语已为你写好；

4.续写完成后，请用下划线标出你所使用的关键词语。

Paragraph 1:

I called my family into my bedroom and showed them what I had found.

________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Paragraph 2:

Several days later, the old lady’s son and his wife came to my house.

________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

【答案】Paragraph l:

I called my family into my bedroom and showed them what I had found. Eyes caught by the incredible bunch of dollar bills at once, they held their breath uncontrollably, frozen with shock. I told them I wanted to give them all back, and undoubtedly, I got their support. So we turned to the secondhand furniture store owner for help. Looking through the donation records, the owner found the son’s telephone number. We got in touch with him right away, told him about the will and the money and made an appointment with him.

Paragraph 2:

Several days later, the old lady’s son and his wife came to my house. Tears welled up in the man’s eyes when he saw the money and the papers, which apparently brought back his memories about his dead mother. Then the couple expressed their sincere gratitude to us. They said they were in big financial trouble now and my act of honesty was a timely help, not only giving them hope but also strengthening their faith. I had never felt better. No new bicycle could make me feel as good about myself as I felt that day. I passed an extremely important test of my honor.
