一、阅读理解
The traditional Chinese solar calendar divides the year into 24 solar terms. Major Cold, or da han in Chinese, is the last solar term in the annual solar calendar. Here are some things about Major Cold.
Cold current
During Major Cold, as the cold current moves southward, the weather is often cold to the extreme. Though the related data in China show that the lowest temperature in a year is usually recorded during the Major Cold period, it may not be as cold as Minor Cold in most areas on the whole since spring is approaching.
Dispelling (驱散) cold
During Major Cold, the freezing weather has a big influence on Chinese people’s lives. Rather than take up outdoor activities, people tend to reduce movements and choose to stay at home to keep fit in various ways. For example, to stay warm, people in Beijing have a habit of eating dispelling cold cake, a kind of rice cake that is thought good to warm and nourish. Besides, in Chinese, “rice cake” has the same pronunciation with the words “higher in a new year”, which symbolizes good luck and continual promotion. For another example, residents in Nanjing, Jiangsu Province like to drink nourishing chicken soup during Major Cold.
The ending and the beginning
Major Cold often coincides with the end of the year, so the folk customs of this period have an added sense of farewell to the old and welcoming the new. With the traditional Spring Festival around the corner, people are busy making preparations for it, like stocking up delicacies, sweeping and decorating. The cheerfulness of the reunion adds warmth to the cold winter days.
1．What is the feature of Major Cold?
A．Lasting much longer than Minor Cold.
B．Being colder than Minor Cold on average.
C．Resulting from cold current moving southward.
D．Dropping to the lowest temperature of the year.
2．How do Chinese people respond to Major Cold?
A．By eating specific food to keep warm. B．By expressing new year’s resolution.
C．By doing exercise to keep healthy. D．By decorating their houses to dispel cold.
3．In which part of a newspaper may the text appear?
A．Diet. B．News. C．Culture. D．Art.

I am a boy who likes reading and I read all kinds of books. When I do this, I have ended up with two speeds—fast and slow depending on how worthwhile I find the book. I like to analyze and ponder over the words and contents of the books, which can sharpen my mind.
When I read the book Intrinsic Motivation(《内在动机》), I ask myself, “What kind of book is it?” Well, first of all, I have to say Dan Pink writes well, which is probably not surprising as he is a speechwriter for an American leader. The text is neither academically difficult nor overly casual. It states information clearly without effort. The subject matter of the book is motivation, and it starts with a discussion of how external motivation is less effective for modern knowledge work, where wide intelligent decision-making and innovation are essential.
The book shows that the tricky nature of how we are truly motivated is uncovered with plenty of examples and descriptions of sound research. For example, it is shown how payment can signal that a task is undesirable and so reduce intrinsic motivation. The heart of the book is the analysis of intrinsic motivation, in particular through the three key elements of autonomy, mastery and purpose. The rest of the book then takes an applied position, showing how these principles can be applied in the workplace. The book ends up with a comprehensive summary, covering the contents from several different angles and providing an easy future reference.
This is the sort of book I like most. Unsurprisingly, perhaps, I took quite a long time to read and re-read this excellent book. It covers the subject of motivation strongly and well. and is now one of my definitive references in a rather large library.
4．What does the underlined phrase “ponder over” in paragraph I mean?
A．Think about. B．Speak out. C．Cut down. D．Take over.
5．What is paragraph 2 mainly about?
A．The effects of external motivation. B．The elements of worthwhile books.
C．The author’s understanding of the book. D．The author’s intelligence for reading books.
6．How does the book mainly expand on the nature of intrinsic motivation?
A．By listing statistics. B．By making assumptions.
C．By drawing comparisons. D．By highlighting instances.
7．What is the text?
A．A book review. B．A biography. C．A novel. D．A news report.

James Rilling of Emory University in Atlanta published the study in The Royal Society in November,2021. His team surveyed 50 grandmothers each with one biological grandchild be-tween 3 and 12 years old and one of their own child. They also measured the brain function as the participants viewed pictures of their grandchild and the same-sex parent of the grandchild. Researchers found that grandmothers viewing their grandchild’s pictures activated parts of the brain that involved emotional empathy(共鸣)and movement.
In contrast, the study also found that when grandmothers viewed images of their adult child, they showed stronger activation in an area of the brain associated with cognitive(认知的)empathy. That indicates they may be trying to cognitively understand what their adult child is thinking or feeling and why, but not as much from the emotional side. Compared with results from an earlier study by the Rilling lab of fathers viewing photos of their children, results showed that grandmothers activated more parts of the brain that involved emotional empathy and motivation.
“That suggests that grandmothers tend to feel what their grandchildren are feeling when they interact with them,” Rilling said. “If their grandchild is smiling, they’re feeling the child’s joy. And if their grandchild is crying, they’re feeling the child’s pain and sorrow.” In many societies, grandmothers are important caregivers, and their investment is often associated with improving their grandchildren’s well-being.
It’s part of the reason why the US celebrates Grandparents’ Day each year on the first Sunday after Labor Day in September. The announcement was signed in 1978. “Because grandparents are usually free to love, guide and befriend the young without having to take the daily responsibility for them. They can reach out past pride and fear of failure and close the space between generations,” the announcement read.
8．How many generations were there at least in the participants’ families?
A．2. B．3. C．4. D．5.
9．What did Rilling say about grandmothers and their grandchildren in paragraph 3?
A．Their cognitive abilities. B．Their emotional interaction.
C．Their respective preferences. D．Their important characteristics.
10．What did the 1978 announcement show?
A．The fear of grandparents. B．Grandparents’ Day activities.
C．Grandparents’ responsibilities. D．The origin of Grandparents’ Day.
11．What can be the best title for the text?
A．Grandmothers Are More Likely to Be Emotional
B．Grandmothers Empathize with Their Own Children
C．Grandmothers Hold Deep Bond with Grandchildren
D．Grandmothers Have Generation Gaps with Grandchildren

Cities are the planet’s largest sources of greenhouse gas emissions (排放), so they offer the greatest opportunity to tackle climate change. Hitting net zero emissions by 2050, a target set at the COP26 summit, could be achieved more quickly using city digital twins—working virtual replicas (复制品) that help track, manage and reduce environmental damage rapidly.
The United Nations says cities, the most suitable subjects, which occupy less than two percent of the Earth’s surface, are major contributors to climate change, consuming almost 80 percent of the world’s energy and producing more than 60 percent of greenhouse gas emissions. Urban areas are forecast to grow by another 2.5 billion people by 2050.
Digital twins look and behave identically in their real-world physical environments. Similar technologies have been in use since NASA’s Apollo moon mission in 1969, where computers and machine replicas were used to test and monitor spacecraft. Virtual 3D city models link to networks of sensors that collect data from buildings, transport, air quality and energy use, to see where emissions can be cut and efficiency improved.
The UK is planning a kind of national digital twins that will connect digital replicas managing buildings, factories, and the other infrastructure nationwide. And that could lead to entire virtual world online, part of a virtual reality space proposed by tech companies.
Research shows that digital twins can save cities more than $280 billion globally by 2030 through more efficient urban planning. A provider of digital twins, Cityzenith, believes that net zero deadlines could be achieved 15 years early if the world’s 100 biggest cities use the technology to remove carbon. “They are the perfect tool for managing and accelerating the energy transition,” said CEO Michael Jansen. “We could get to net zero emissions globally by 2035.”
In the US, the Digital Twin Consortium is working to standardize how digital twins are built and share data. Big tech companies around the world have developed software for replicating cities, including a district of Berlin, the island nation of Singapore, and the entire city of Shanghai in China.
12．What are city digital twins used to do?
A．Decorate cities. B．Change cities’ climate.
C．Popularize urban technology. D．Reduce urban carbon emissions.
13．Why are cities chosen for the use of digital twins?
A．They occupy most of the Earth’s surface.
B．They consume little of the world’s energy.
C．They produce little of solid waste pollution.
D．They contribute most to the greenhouse effect.
14．Why is the Apollo moon mission mentioned in the text?
A．To prove the accuracy of network data.
B．To explain the practical use of digital twins.
C．To tell us the importance of the space tasks.
D．To show the difficulty of urban construction.
15．What can we learn about city digital twins from the last two paragraphs?
A．They are promising. B．They are unrecognizable.
C．They lack research funding. D．They have reached a standard level.

41．The 42．to date 43．years 44．actually 45．or 46．Known 47．has been posting/has posted 48．targeting 49．with 50．which

【导语】这是一篇新闻报道。一名23岁的华裔美国视频博主正赶上一股新潮流：现代服装与中国传统汉服混搭。文章对此进行了报道。
41．考查冠词。句意：后者指的是中国人的一种历史服饰，据说是迄今为止追溯到4000多年前。the latter意为“后者”，为固定搭配，所以此处应用定冠词the。句首首字母应大写。故填The。
42．考查动词不定式。句意：后者指的是中国人的一种历史服饰，据说要追溯到4000多年前。be said to do意为“据说做某事”，为固定搭配，所以此处应用to do不定式。date back意为“追溯到”。故填to date。
43．考查名词复数。句意：近年来，当中国人谈论汉服时，他们通常会想象一件长袖束腰的飘逸长袍。in recent years意为“近年来”，为固定搭配，所以此处应用名词复数years。故填years。
44．考查副词。句意：然而，它实际上是一个多样化的术语，包括不同朝代的不同衣橱潮流。修饰be动词应用副词actually表示“实际上”作状语。故填actually。
45．考查连词。句意：在日常生活中，视频博主经常要么着一整套汉服要么中西元素的混合服。either...or...“要么……要么”是固定短语。故填or。
46．考查过去分词。句意：她在社交媒体上被称为网红，自去年以来，她一直在发布自己穿着中国古代风格的混合服装，化着相配妆容的视频。be known as“被称为……”是固定短语，此处作状语，应省去be。故填Known。
47．考查现在完成时或现在完成进行时和主谓一致。句意：她在社交媒体上被称为网红，自去年以来，她一直在发布自己穿着中国古代风格的混合服装，化着相配妆容的视频。根据since last year可知，此处应用现在完成时。也可理解为动作发生在过去，并一直持续到现在，并在将来的某段时间里仍将继续，所以应用现在完成进行时。主语she为第三人称单数。故填has been posting/has posted。
48．考查现在分词。句意：她还在中国生活方式和一个主要面向年轻一代的电子商务和热门视频分享平台上吸引了许多粉丝。动词target意为“面向，针对”，和谓语之间没有连词，和逻辑主语platform构成主动关系，所以应用现在分词作后置定语。故填targeting。
49．考查介词。句意：“我喜欢汉服，喜欢与世界分享。所以我制作了视频，让人们了解这种古老的服饰，这也让我了解了更多。”这位华裔视频博主在接受采访时说。share sth with sb意为“和某人分享某物”，为固定搭配，所以此处应用介词with。故填with。
50．考查定语从句。句意：“我喜欢汉服，喜欢与世界分享。所以我制作了视频，让人们了解这种古老的服饰，这也让我了解了更多。”这位华裔视频博主在接受采访时说。在非限制性定语从句中缺少主语，且修饰主句，所以应用关系代词which。故填which。

2.found→founded
3.had→has
4.删除in
5.greatly→great

7.knowledges→knowledge
8.so→such

【导语】这是一篇应用文。文章是学校中国民族音乐俱乐部招募成员的广告。
【详解】1.考查动名词。句意：为了丰富我们的课余生活，培养我们保护传统文化的意识，一个中国民族音乐俱乐部即将成立。动词develop和enriching并列，作介词at的宾语，应用动名词形式，故将develop改为developing。
2.考查过去分词。句意同上。结合“to be”可知，此处是动词不定式的被动式，found“建立”应用过去分词，故将found改为founded。
3.考查一般现在时。句意：任何精通中国传统民族音乐的人都欢迎加入我们的俱乐部。句子是描述一个事实，应用一般现在时，Whoever作主语，谓语动词用单数，故将had改为has。
4.考查动词用法。句意同上。根据“the club”可知，此处指加入某个组织或团体，应用动词join，join in表示参加某种活动，不符合题意，故删除in。
5.考查形容词。句意：俱乐部无疑会举办各种吸引人的活动，对你大有裨益。此处应用形容词作定语，修饰名词benefit，故将greatly改为great。
6.考查定语从句。句意：这是一个你一定会乐在其中，同时获得知识和快乐的俱乐部。分析句子可知，此处引导定语从句，先行词是club，关系词在从句中作地点状语，应用关系副词where，故将that改为where。
7.考查不可数名词。句意同上。knowledge是不可数名词，没有复数形式，故将knowledges改为knowledge。
8.考查固定短语。句意：因此，这是一个千载难逢的机会，你最好不要错过。表示“如此……以至于”时，so的结构为“so+形容词+a/an+名词”，such的结构的“such+a/an+形容词+名词”，故此处应用such，故将so改为such。
9.考查形容词。句意：要报名参加俱乐部，你必须在5月3日晚上之前通过电子邮件将你的个人信息交给学生会。修饰名词information，应用形容词，作定语，故将person改为personal。
10.考查不定冠词。句意：希望所有的学生都能积极参加。take an active part in积极参加，固定短语。故在active前加an。
