一、阅读理解

Four Winter Spots

    Here are four spots around the world worth a winter trip.

    Christmas Island, Australia

    On Christmas Day of 1643, Captain William Mynors sailed past this tropical (热带的) island 224 miles south of Java and named it, of course, “Christmas”. Consisting of rainforest, sand beaches, coral reefs and one oceanic mountain, two thirds of this 52-square-mile island is a national park, home to pipistrelles, flying foxes, endangered seabirds and sea turtles. Many of the 2,000 local people celebrate the Chinese Lunar New Year every year.

    Quito, Ecuador

    In Quito, the sun always sets at six. As the second biggest city in Ecuador and the second highest capital in the world, Quito makes a convenient access point to the Amazon rainforest, the thrill-seekers’ paradise. In only three hours, travelers can travel from the best-preserved historical city center in Latin America to the land of giant tortoises, lava lizards and blue-footed boobies.

    Sun Peaks, Canada

    Snowshoeing, dogsledding and storm-watching all make British Columbia a favorite winter destination. But if you're planning on skiing, ski-biking or snow-limo-riding, please head for Sun Peaks, Canada’s second largest ski area.

    Lijiang, China

    A winter trip to the southwest Chinese province of Yunnan promises mild, dry and sunny weather —excellent conditions for skiing the trails of China’s highest ski resort, Jade Dragon Snow Mountain. Home to plenty of wildlife and 400 types of trees, the mountain is located about 10 miles from the UNESCO World Heritage Old Town of Lijiang, an important center for the fascinating Naxi people whose 1,000-year-old Dongba characters are the only living pictographic (象形文字的) writing system worldwide today.

    Jack London, one of America’s major writers of adventure tales, was born in California in 1876. During his life, London worked at many jobs. His broad life experiences would become the background for his writing.

    London loved to read. As a teenager, he spent many hours educating himself at the Oakland, California, public library. He attended college at the University of California at Berkeley, but he stayed for only six months. He thought Berkeley was “not lively enough” and wanted to do something more exciting.

    London wrote stories about working people and the hard times they had making a living. He knew their problems first hand. He worked as a sailor, farmer, factory employee, railroad worker, and gold prospector, to name just a few of his many jobs.

    London grew up near the waterfront in Oakland. He loved the water. When he was fifteen years old, he bought a small sailboat called a sloop. Later he sailed to Japan on a schooner, which is a much larger sailing boat. Like many people of the time, London caught the Klondike Gold Rush Fever. In 1897, he headed for Alaska. He didn’t find gold, but he discovered something even more valuable. He discovered that people enjoyed listening to the stories he made up with his vivid imagination. London entertained the miners with story after story. Later, using his experiences during the Gold Rush, he created many more colorful stories.

    London resolved to live a full, exciting life. He once said, “I would rather be a superb meteor(流星), every atom of me in magnificent glow, than a sleepy and permanent planet.” Each day, he pushed himself. Once London determined that he was going to be a writer, nothing could stop him. His goal was to write at least one thousand words every day. He refused to stop even when he was sick. In eighteen years, the writer published fifty-one books and hundreds of articles. He was the best-selling and highest-paid author of his day. Many people also considered him to be the best writer. White Fang and The Call of the Wild are his most famous stories and are about surviving in the Alaskan wilderness. Readers can enjoy Jack London’s energy and his talent for telling wonderful stories each time they open one of his novels.

4、Why was Jack London able to write on many topics?

A. He pushed himself to reach goals.

B. He had a variety of experiences and jobs.

C. He was drawn to the Klondike Gold Rush.

D. He was the best-selling and highest-paid author.

A. That he was hired to sail to Japan.

B. That he traveled to Alaska in 1897.

C. That he spent much of his time writing.

D. That he was not interested in college life enough.

6、The underlined sentence in the last paragraph indicates that Jack London ______.

A. is expert at universe. B. aims high and strive to succeed.

C. is excited about life if the wildness. D. face a choice between life and death.

7、What is the author’s purpose in writing the passage?

A. To support the statement that London was the best writer?

B. To describe life during the klondike Gold Rush.

C. To provide information on Jack’s life.

D. To identify books written by Jack London.

    The "30 by 30" campaign to protect 30% of the world's oceans by 2030, supported by more than 70 nations, is known mostly for ambition and few achievements so far. Just 7% of the seas are protected and only 2.7% are highly protected.

    Setting aside nearly a third of the oceans, the fishers say, is an idea developing nations in South America and elsewhere can hardly afford. That argument against a large expansion of sea protected areas is heard around the world, and the gap between conservationists and fishers has grown wider as fish population declines and the appetite for seafood grows along with the global population.

    Research published recently aims to dramatically change that situation. The study suggests that protecting 30% of the oceans not only could restore biodiversity to ocean habitats, it could also increase the annual global catch by eight million tons about 10% of the catch today. After all, the only way to get more food from the ocean is to protect more. And, as a bonus, it would provide a "cheap, natural solution" to climate change by reducing the amount of seafloor carbon emitted(排放) into the seas by fishing trawlers (拖网渔船).

    In the study, an international team of 26 scientists analyzed the world's unprotected ocean waters to calculate which are threatened by overfishing, habitat destruction, and release of carbon. The team then mapped locations globally where protections would provide the greatest benefits to fish resources, biodiversity and climate.

    The findings can be used by nations to address the three related aspects separately or in combination. Fully addressing all three will require that at least 30% of the oceans be protected, but nations can still realize significant protections by focusing on key areas, and global cooperation to strategically locate protected areas can be nearly twice as effective as individual nations working alone.

8、What are the first two paragraphs mainly about?

A.The wide support for the campaign.

B.The challenges of protecting the oceans.

C.The worldwide efforts to resist illegal fishing.

D.The achievements in reducing ocean pollution.

9、Which is not the benefit of restoring oceans?

A.It keeps sea species stable.

B.It improves the global climate.

C.It helps to increase fish population.

D.It removes carbon from the seafloor.

10、What is the purpose of the text?

A.To discuss the methods of fishing sustainably.

B.To stress the importance of biological balance.

C.To appeal for building ocean protected areas globally.

D.To introduce the background of the "30 by 30" campaign.

11、In which section of a newspaper may this text appear?

A.Environment. B.Geography. C.Travel. D.Economy.

    What kind of potato chips would you create, and what would you name it, if you wanted to sell the product to pregnant women?

    This was the task that marketing professors Kelly Herd and Ravi Mehta presented to more than 200 adults, in a study of how emotion impacts creativity. The participants were divided evenly into two groups. Group A were simply given the assignment without any extra instructions. Group B were told to take a few minutes, before beginning the task, to imagine how the customer would feel while eating the snack.

    The amateur product designers came up with different potato chip ideas and descriptions, but the most creative were: Pickles-and-ice-cream chips, Sushi chips, and Margarita-for-Mom chips. The most creative ideas came from the group that had thought about how the consumer would feel before starting the task. “I think it is fascinating to see the result—the empathy(同理心) has great influence in maximizing creativity,” Herd says. “This is one of those areas of psychology that hasn’t been clarified yet for marketers: how does thinking of others’ feelings affect those who are creating new work?”

    “We’ve shown that empathy can change the way in which you think,” Herd says. “We’ve looked at it in a somewhat narrow context of product design, but it appears that amazing things, such as imagining how someone else feels, can have a huge impact on creativity in general.”

    Herd and Mehta conducted five separate experiments, including asking participants to design a child’s toy, select materials for a new kind of food for kids, and redesign a grocery cart for the elderly. And these experiments provided more evidence for their finding.

    The researchers believe the initial focus on others’ feelings creates the ability to consider issues from diverse points of view. The ability to “shift avenues of thought” while perceiving and processing information is a benefit to creativity.

    “An interesting trend in marketing now is that large companies are developing new ideas for products and services from their customers’ suggestions,” says Herd. This year alone, more than half of consumer goods manufacturers say they will get 75% of their innovation and research and development capabilities from crowd-sourcing(众包).

    In an ultra-competitive marketplace, few companies will survive for long without innovation and new products, Herd says. In fact, a 2016 study published in Business News Daily found that 82% of company executives interviewed believe there is a strong connection between creativity and business results.

12、What should the participants in Group B do before the assignment?

A. Try the chips currently on sale. B. Think from a customer’s angle.

C. Meet with the producers of the chips. D. Remember all materials of the chips.

13、What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 4 refer to?

A. The influence of empathy. B. The importance of creativity.

C. The benefit of the chips. D. The feeling of others.

14、What can we learn from the last paragraph?

A. The effect of crowd-sourcing on business results.

B. The fierce competition faced by large companies.

C. The significance of innovation to business competition.

D. The role of crowd-sourcing in the creation of new products.

15、Which of the following can be the best title for the text?

A. The most effective way to inspire creativity

B. A promising avenue for best-selling products

C. The influence of creativity in product marketing

D. The power of empathy in product development

六、读后续写

34、阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。

    One Saturday afternoon, I was watching TV in the living room with my grandpa when a blinding flash of lightning flashed across the sky, followed by a deafening sound, and the pictures on TV disappeared with that sound. Before I realized what had happened, a gray-white shadow rushed in through the open window and flew over my head. Bang! It hit the wall and slid off to the floor. Shaking with fear, I approached it cautiously and saw that it was a pigeon. It looked at me in fear, trying to open its wings and struggling its feet, but apparently powerless.

    So I called my grandpa and immediately set out to give it a helping hand. Taking it in my hands, I felt a few drops of warmth on my hands. It was blood! I gently spread its wings and there were a few red feathers inside. "Don't worry. We'll get it out alive," Grandpa said to me. Then he got the first-aid kit. With some cotton, we dried the blood, cleaned the wound and then put it under a hairdryer to dry. All went smoothly, for the pigeon had no strength left to resist. There happened to be an empty birdcage at home, so I put it in gently and added a little water and some grains.

    For the next few days, the moment I got home from school, I would run to feed the pigeon. And Grandpa helped a lot, tidying up the cage daily. Little by little, its strength returned. One evening, I fed it with the biscuit I was eating. It enjoyed it! One week later, its wound almost healed(痊愈); its feathers grew and it became brave. Whenever I sat at the table eating biscuits, it looked up at me, cooing(咕咕地叫) constantly. To my joy, I could also reach into the cage to touch it. When I gently fingered its head, it playfully pecked(啄) at me. Finally it completely recovered. But every time I was with it, it seemed restless in the cage. To make it happy and pretty, I tied an orange string(线) around its leg.

注意：

1. 续写词数应为150左右；

2. 请按如下格式在相应的位置作答。

    One day, however, when I returned home, Grandpa met me at the door, looking embarrassed.

___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

    Sure enough, I saw a pigeon flying into the house the next afternoon!

3、答案：D

解析：细节理解题。根据Christmas Island, Australia部分中的"two thirds of this 52-square-mile island is a national park, home to pipistrelles, flying foxes, endangered seabirds and sea turtles这个52平方英里的岛屿中,有三分之二是国家公园,是伏翼蝠,飞狐,濒危海鸟和海龟的家园。"以及Lijiang, China部分中的"Home to plenty of wildlife是许多野生动物的家园。"可知,这两个地方都有很多种野生动植物。故选D。

4、答案：B

解析：细节理解题。根据第一段During his life, London worked at many jobs. His broad life experiences would become the background for his writing.在他的一生中,伦敦在许多工作岗位上工作,他广泛的生活经历将成为他写作的背景,故选B。

5、答案：D

6、答案：B

解析：句子理解.根据最后一段He once said, "I would rather be a superb meteor(流星), every atom of me in magnificent glow, than a sleepy and permanent planet." Each day, he pushed himself.他曾说: "我宁愿成为一颗卓越的流星,我的每一个原子都在灿烂的光辉中,也不愿成为一个沉睡的、永恒的行星",每天,他都在鞭策自己,可知暗示Jack London要制定高远目标奋斗到成功,故选B。

7、答案：C

解析：写作意图。本文介绍美国主要的冒险小说作家之一杰克伦敦及他的作品,成长经历等,因此目的就是提供有关杰克生活的信息,故选C。

8、答案：B

解析：主旨大意题。根据文章第一段The "30 by 30" campaign to protect 30% of the world's oceans by 2030, ...only 2.7% are highly protected.(由70多个国家支持的“30 by 30”运动旨在到2030年保护世界30%的海洋。迄今为止,该运动以雄心勃勃而闻名,但收效甚微。只有7%的海洋受到了保护,只有2.7%受到了高度保护。)第二段“Setting aside nearly a third of the oceans, ...and the gap between conservationists and fishers has grown wider as fish population declines and the appetite for seafood grows along with the global population.”(渔民们说,留出近三分之一的海洋是南美和其他地区的发展中国家难以承受的。这种反对大规模扩大海洋保护区的论调在全世界都能听到,随着鱼类数量的减少,对海产品的需求随着全球数量的增长而增长,自然资源保护主义者和渔民之间的差距越来越大。)由此可知前两段主要讲保护海洋运动收效甚微,并且南美和很多地方反对大规模扩大海洋保护区,因此前两段描述的是保护海洋运动面临的问题,故选B。

9、答案：D

解析：细节理解题。根据第三段The study suggests that protecting 30% of the oceans not only could restore biodiversity to ocean habitats, it could also increase the annual global catch by eight million tons about 10% of the catch today. After all, the only way to get more food from the ocean is to protect more. And, as a bonus, it would provide a "cheap, natural solution" to climate change by reducing the amount of seafloor carbon emitted(排放) into the seas by fishing trawlers (拖网渔船).(这项研究表明,保护30%的海洋不仅可以恢复海洋栖息地的生物多样性,还可以使全球年捕鱼量增加800万吨,约为目前捕鱼量的10%。毕竟,从海洋中获取更多食物的唯一方法就是保护更多的海洋。此外,作为奖励,它将通过减少拖网渔船排放到海洋中的海底碳量,为气候变化提供一种“廉价、自然的解决方案”。)由此可知,恢复海洋的好处包括恢复海洋栖息地的生物多样性,捕鱼量上涨,减少排放的碳量,改善气候,因此D选项错误,故选D。

10、答案：C

解析：推理判断题。根据文章第一段The "30 by 30" campaign to protect 30% of the world's oceans by 2030, ...only 2.7% are highly protected.(由70多个国家支持的“30 by 30”运动旨在到2030年保护世界30%的海洋。迄今为止,该运动以雄心勃勃而闻名,但收效甚微。只有7%的海洋受到了保护,只有2.7%受到了高度保护。)以及最后一段“Fully addressing all three will require that at least 30% of the oceans be protected, but nations can still realize significant protections by focusing on key areas, and global cooperation to strategically locate protected areas can be nearly twice as effective as individual nations working alone.”(全面解决这三个问题需要至少30%的海洋得到保护,但各国仍然可以通过关注关键领域来实现重大保护,而且在战略上确定保护区的全球合作可以比各国单独行动的效果高出近一倍。)由此可知,文章主要是为了呼吁全世界建立海洋保护区域,故选C。

11、答案：A

解析：推理判断题。根据文章描述可知主要讲述30 by 30保护世界30%的海洋的运动收效甚微以及面临的问题,并给出保护世界30%的海洋的运动会带来很多益处,呼吁全世界扩大海洋保护区域,所以这是一篇关于环保的文章,最可能出现报纸的环境部分,故选A。

12、答案：B

解析：细节理解题。根据第二段的“Group B were told to take a few minutes, before beginning the task, to imagine how the customer would feel while eating the snack.(B组被要求在开始任务前花几分钟时间想象顾客在吃零食时的感受)”可知,B组参与者被要求在任务开始前从顾客的角度思考。故选B。

13、答案：A

解析：词句猜测题。根据第四段“We've shown that empathy can change the way in which you think,” Herd says. “We've looked at it in a somewhat narrow context of product design, but it appears that amazing things, such as imagining how someone else feels, can have a huge impact on creativity in general.”(“我们已经证明,同理心可以改变你的思考方式,”Herd说。 “我们在产品设计的狭隘背景下研究过这个问题,但它似乎表明,一些令人惊奇的事情,比如想象别人的感受,可以对创造力产生巨大的影响。”)可知,it指代上文提到的“empathy can change the way in which you think”,即同理心的影响。故选A。

14、答案：C

解析：细节理解题。根据最后一段的“In an ultra-competitive marketplace, few companies will survive for long without innovation and new products, Herd says.(Herd说,在一个竞争异常激烈的市场中,没有创新和新产品,很少有公司能长久生存)”可知,创新在公司竞争中非常重要。故选C。

15、答案：D

解析：主旨大意题。根据文章的主要内容,尤其第三段的“I think it is fascinating to see the result-the empathy(同理心) has great influence in maximizing creativity,” Herd says.(赫德说: “我认为,看到同理心在最大限度地发挥创造力方面产生巨大影响的结果是非常有趣的。”)和最后一段的“In an ultra-competitive marketplace, few companies will survive for long without innovation and new products, Herd says.(Herd说,在一个竞争异常激烈的市场中,没有创新和新产品,很少有公司能长久生存)”可知,文章主要介绍了同理心有利于创造力,而创造力有助于新产品的开发,这有在公司的市场竞争是很重要的。故“产品开发中移情的力量”可以作为本文的最佳标题。故选D。

16、答案：BCFEG

解析：①上文“It promotes expression and creativity. As humans, we're naturally drawn to art as a form of expression and communication.(艺术能促进表达和创造力。作为人类,艺术作为一种表达和交流的形式,自然会吸引我们。)”说明会吸引我们,下文“It's a way for them to express themselves before they're able to speak. In fact, participation in the arts may even assist kids with language, motor skills, and visual learning development.(这是在他们能够说话之前,让他们表达自己的一种方式。事实上,参与艺术活动甚至可以帮助孩子在语言、运动技能和视觉学习方面的发展。)”可知,空处应该是儿童用艺术表达自己的具体方式,而B项“Children love to draw, sing, and dance(孩子们喜欢画画、唱歌和跳舞)”为儿童表达自己的具体方式。符合题意,故选B项。

②根据下文“When someone applies for a job, there are certain skills they need to have like data analysis or bookkeeping.(当有人申请一份工作时,他们需要具备某些技能,比如数据分析或记账。)”可知,此段主旨是讲艺术对于这些技能的作用,C项“It helps all of us develop necessary soft skills.(它帮助我们所有人发展必要的软技能。)”是介绍艺术对于人的技能发展的作用,符合题意,故选C项。

③上文“It provides historical context.(它提供了历史背景。)”以及下文“This is why people dedicate their lives to studying cave art, Shakespearean plays, and so much more.(这就是为什么人们致力于研究洞穴艺术、莎士比亚戏剧等等)”可知,空处应该是讲艺术对于人类历史的作用。F项“Art and human history go hand-in-hand(艺术和人类历史是携手并进的。)”符合题意,故选F项。

④上文“We can study art to find out what those before us were facing and how they overcame it.”(我们可以通过研究艺术作品来了解我们的祖先们曾面临过什么,以及他们是如何克服的)可知,艺术具有让人预知未来的作用。E项“Similarly, future generations will learn about our current events by the art we leave behind.(同样,我们的后代也将通过我们留下的艺术来了解当前的事件。)”与上文意思相互承接,符合题意,故选E项。

⑤上文“In therapy(疗法) settings, art also provides an opportunity for digging deeper and expressing emotions that are difficult to discuss.(在治疗中,艺术也提供了一个更深层次挖掘和表达难以讨论的情感的机会。)”和下文“In one important study, children between 6 and 12 were asked to draw a house as a distraction after thinking about something upsetting.

32、答案：①was held②to represent/representing③accompanied④have lived⑤which⑥editions⑦for⑧diversity⑨impressive⑩What

解析：①考查被动语态。句意:2022年2月4日,北京2022年冬奥会开幕式在中国农历24节气中的第一个节气“立春”的同一天举行,代表了北京2022年冬奥会主办方希望世界各地的朋友们一起迎接新的春天。分析句意可知,此处应该用被动语态,且发生在过去,所以用一般过去时的被动语态。故填was held。

②考查非谓语动词。句意:同上。分析句式结构可知,此处应该用非谓语作状语,再分析句意,此处可以理解为用不定式作目的状语,表目的,也可以理解成现在分词伴随状语,表主动关系。故填to represent/representing。

③考查非谓语动词。句意:晚上8点,国家体育场的大屏幕上播放着中国“二十四节气”的倒计时,伴随着季节变化的画面,展示了中国人自古以来与自然、与世界的和谐相处。分析句式金结构,再根据后面的by可知,此处应该用过去分词作后置定语,表被动关系。故填accompanied。

④考查动词的时态。句意:同上。根据下文的since可知,此处应该用现在完成时,且主语是复数,故填have lived。

⑤考查定语从句。句意:一个神奇的仪式,以中国节日文化和技术强化视觉奇观,把世界的呼吸作为北京2022年冬季奥运会的开幕式被宣布,让北京世界上第一个城市举办夏季和冬季奥运会的版本。分析句式结构可知,此处是非限制性定语从句,且从句中缺少主语,所以用关系代词which来引导。

⑥考查名词。句意:同上。根据both Summer and Winter可知,此处用名词的复数形式,故填editions。

⑦考查介词。句意:国际奥委会主席巴赫感谢中国让冬奥会在一个安全的环境中举行。分析句意可知,此处用介词for表原因,符合语境。故填for。

⑧考查名词。句意:典礼的特点是与公众互动和多元化,一些表演者来自学校和基层艺术团体,青少年占典礼表演者的95%。分析句式结构可知,因为and前是名词public,所以此处应该用提示词的名词形式。故填diversity。

⑨考查形容词。句意:OBS首席执行官Exarchos说:“这个仪式和2008年一样令人印象深刻。”冬奥会展示的是中国人民对世界人民的信心、骄傲、爱和感情,这是我们伟大的理念和价值观。分析句式结构可知,此处应该用形容词作表语。故填impressive。

⑩考查主语从句。句意:同上。分析句式结构可知,此处是主语从句,且从句子缺少宾语,所以用连接代词what来引导。故填what。

34、答案：

    One day, however, when I returned home, Grandpa met me at the door, looking embarrassed. I asked him what had happened. He turned around and pointed to the birdcage, apologizing to me that the pigeon slid out when he was tidying up the cage and flew away through the open window. Gone! I couldn't believe my ears. I rushed over to the birdcage. Just empty! I stared at the remaining water and grains, tears streaming down my cheeks. "Where has it gone? Will it be hurt again? Will it come back? ..." I asked Grandpa, sobbing. "It will fly back!" he convinced me, wiping away my tears gently.

    Sure enough, I saw a pigeon flying into the house the next afternoon! It perched near the birdcage, cooing. Despite great excitement, I approached it quietly. It was gray-white and had an orange string tied to one leg. My pigeon came back! "It must be hungry," Grandpa grinned. Immediately, I fed it with grains and then tiptoed to the window and closed it, urging Grandpa to cage it. But he didn't. "Pigeons need freedom," he explained to me patiently. I was hesitant but looking at the pigeon wandering and pecking at the grains peacefully, I realized Grandpa was right! I turned back to the window and opened it.
