    I enjoy throwing stuff away. I'd love to go full minimalism (极简主义), but my wife and two teenage kids do not share my dream of a house with almost nothing in it. I have tried. When the kids were little, I taught them my two favorite games—"Do We Need It? "and "Put It in Its Place"—and made them play every few months. Their enthusiasm never matched mine.
    If I'm going to be honest, my own tidying skills are not as great as I'd like. My "discarded" pile is never quite the trash mountain I want because I make up excuses for why things are useful. I consider this unhealthy. I want to be better at moving on.
    So, this time I found help—the classics for people like me: The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up, by Marie Kondo. Kondo's commitment to her craft is astonishing. Her philosophy is only to keep things you love. Can I go full Kondo? I will try. One central idea is to clean by category. You start by collecting all clothes and gathering them together for consideration. It makes you rethink how you organize. Next, hold each item and ask if it brings you joy. This way you're choosing what to keep. And that's how I find myself with all my clothes on my bedroom floor. My wife walks by and gives me a look that says I'm nuts. She's probably not wrong.
    Somewhere near the bottom of this chaos is my special jacket. I move through the pile: pants, shirts, suits and shoes. Then my last category: jackets. I haven't worn the thing in about 30 years. Somehow, it has survived. Now that I'm striving to follow Kondo-surely, its time has come?
    I hold it in my hand. There is a tear just below the collar that widens as I hold it. It's literally falling apart. Will I ever wear it again? Not a chance. Does it feel good to wear? Does it bring me joy? Actually, yes. At this moment, my daughter walks in. She asks about the jacket. I tell her the story. She thinks I should keep it. It's cool and unique and full of memories. She is arguing that nostalgia (怀念) is the very reason.
    I'm not entirely convinced by my daughter's arguments. I believe in looking ahead, not backward. Nevertheless, sometimes it's hard to let go. So I gently place the jacket on the "keep" pile.
4. What does the underlined word "discarded" probably mean in Paragraph 2?

Research by the Policy Institute at King's.College London and Ipsos MORI showed that around 54% of British people will miss some parts of lockdown （封城），including family time.19% of the 2，442 adults said the last year had been better than they expected it to be when the first lockdown started.The research also found that 32% of people felt the past year had been similar to or better than usual for them personally.People have enjoyed being closer to their family，friends，and neighbours throughout to pandemic （流行病），with 28% feeling closer to their family，19% to their neighbours，and 31% to their friends.
    Professor Bobby Duffy，director of the Policy Institute at King's College London，said： "There is no doubt that the public would rather the pandemic hadn't happened at all — but  that doesn't mean it's been all bad for everyone，or that people see it de influencing their future.What's surprising about the findings is that for a group of people the last year turned out better than expected，or even better than a normal year."
    He added "Of course，many have been badly influenced.The findings draw attention to a key area of the pandemic，that while action to control the pandemic has been taken，its influence depends hugely on your own circumstances."
    Almost half of the public felt the last year had been worse than expected and 43% expected its mental health because of the pandemic.
    The research found that some people plan to continue with some habits they formed in lockdown，with saying they will shop locally more and 38% saying they plan to walk more post-pandemic.Gideon Skinner，research director at Ipsos MORI，said British people expect the pandemic will lead to long-term changes but bold different opinions on what the changes could be.
8. What did the research mainly find？       
A. About half of British people would like to keep some parts of lockdown life.
B. Most British people thought they were disconnected from their friends.
C. Life during lockdown was better than British people's normal life.
D. Lockdown was much worse than British people had thought.
9. What does the underlined word "that" in paragraph 2 refer to？       
A. The pandemic deeply influenced people's future.
B. The public would miss some parts of lockdown.
C. The public would prefer there had been no pandemic.
D. The pandemic seemed to be out of control last year.
10. What can we infer from Gideon Skinner's opinion in the last paragraph？       
A. The changes brought by the pandemic are still unclear.
B. People will pay more attention to their family life.
C. The pandemic is helping people form good habits.
D. People are losing their confidence in the future.

An artificial intelligence can decode （解码） words and sentences from brain activity with surprising—though still limited—accuracy.Using only a few seconds of brain activity data，the AI guesses what a person has heard.It lists the correct answer in its top 10 possibilities up to 73 percent of the time，researchers found in a study.
Developed at the parent company of Facebook，Meta，the AI could eventually be used to help thousands of people around the world unable to communicate through speech，typing or gestures，researchers report August 25 at arXiv.org.
Most existing technologies to help such patients communicate require risky brain surgeries to implant electrodes.This new approach "could provide a practical path to help patients without the use of invasive methods，" says neuroscientist Jean-Rémi King，a Meta AI researcher in Paris.
King and his colleagues trained a computational tool to detect words and sentences on 56，000 hours of speech recordings from 53 languages.The tool，also known as a language model，learned how to recognize specific features of language.With the help of a computational method，the team tried to decode what participants had heard using just three seconds of brain activity data from each person.The team instructed the AI to match the speech sounds from the story recordings to patterns of brain activity that the AI computed as corresponding to what people were hearing.It then made predictions about what the person might have been hearing during that short time，given more than 1，000 possibilities.The correct answer was in the AI's top 10 guesses up to 73 percent of the time，the researchers found.
The new study is "decoding of speech perception，not production，" King notes.Though speech production is the ultimate goal，for now， "we're quite a long way away."
12. What is the main idea of paragraph 1？ ______
A. The principle of human brain activity.
B. The limitation of human brain activity.
C. The definition of the artificial intelligence.
D. The new function of the artificial intelligence.
13. Whom might the AI be beneficial to？ ______
A. People unable to hear.
B. People who can't move around.
C. People who are unconscious.
D. People unable to communicate normally.
14. What is the purpose of paragraph 4？ ______
A. To analyze the features of the study.
B. To state the significance of the study.
C. To introduce the process of the study.
D. To present the achievement of the study.
15. What can we infer about the AI from the passage？ ______
A. It performs well in the speech production.
B. Its accuracy is far from the researchs' satisfaction.
C. It will help patients avoid dangerous brain surgeries.
D. Its language learning ability is beyond expectation.


How to survive a stampede

At least 154 people were killed and more than 100 others injured in a stampede accident that occurred at Itaewon，Seoul，Korea，during a Halloween gathering，local authorities said early Sunday morning.What should we do in case of similar crowding and trampling accidents？Here are a few tips to increase the chances of survival in an incident.
Look for exits
If you are in a crowd，a first and most important thing is to make yourself familiar with your surroundings and mentally notice alternate exits. (1) .
Keep an eye on the crowd
(2) ，as panic situations can often be expected.When in danger，a few seconds can make all the difference，giving you the possibility of taking advantage of your escaping route.
(3)
If you find yourself in the middle of a moving crowd do not fight against the pressure，do not stand still or sit down，because you could easily get trampled.Move in the same direction of the crowd keeping your hands up by your chest like a boxer — it gives you movement and protects your chest.
Protect your head
If you fall，get up quickly. (4) ，or if that is not possible，then cover your head with your arms and curl up into the fetal position （do not lay on your stomach or back，as this dangerously exposes your lungs）.
Move diagonally towards the exit
After you're pushed forward，like in a wave there's a lull（间歇）.In that lull is your chance to move，and the way you move is on a diagonal，between pockets of people.There's always space between people.A couple of steps sideways，another wave surge，then another couple of steps in the next lull. (5) .

A.Avoid any choke points
B.Keep pace with the crowd
C.Be aware of the general atmosphere of the crowd
D.You don't want to be knocked unconscious in this scenario
E.You work your way out that way till you get to the periphery（外围）
F.No matter where you are，make sure you always know how to get out
G.If you can't，keep moving by crawling in the same direction of the crowd

38. 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。
I live in a small but lovely neighborhood.Our house is neither large nor luxurious，but it has a fairly big garden.My father loves his garden.He planted some seeds in it and took good care of the plants，watering them，applying fertilizer，weeding and getting rid of bugs.He was never tired of doing all that stuff.But at that time，I didn't understand why working in the dirt excited him so much.
Unfortunately，in the summer vacation before senior high school，my father was seriously injured in an accident.He had to stay in bed for a while.My mother had several business trips，so she couldn't take care of the garden.I didn't want my father to worry.I said that I would take care of his garden until he recovered.I assumed that the little plants would continue to grow as long as they had water，and luckily it rained fairly often，so I didn't think much about the garden.
One Saturday morning，my father said to me， "Christine，the vegetables should be about ready to be picked.Let's have a salad today!" I went out to the garden and was upset to see that many of the lettuce （生菜） leaves and carrots had been half eaten by bugs.There were hundreds of bugs all over them!
I panicked for a moment but then I quietly went to the nearest supermarket to buy some vegetables.When I was making the salad，my mother came home and saw the bag from the supermarket in the kitchen.I was embarrassed and admitted， "Dad would like a salad，but the garden is a disaster.I don't want to disappoint him，so I went to the store and bought some vegetables." My mother smiled，saying， "Honey，you know what is the right thing to do."

Paragraph 1
My father seemed very pleased when I took the salad to him.
______
Paragraph 2
Feeling guilty，I decided to do the right thing.

4. 纵观全文，结合第一段内容（我喜欢扔掉东西。我喜欢完全的极简主义风格，但我的妻子和两个十几岁的孩子不喜欢我那种几乎什么都没有的房子的梦想。我已经试过了。当孩子们还小的时候，我教他们我最喜欢的两个游戏——“我们需要它吗？”和“放回原处”——并让他们每隔几个月演奏一次。他们的热情永远比不上我。）和最后一段内容（我并不完全相信我女儿的论点。我相信向前看，而不是向后看。然而，有时候放手是很难的。所以我轻轻地把夹克放在"保留"那一堆。）可知，文章讲述了喜欢扔掉东西的“我”，在研读了近藤麻理惠的《改变生活的整理魔法》，努力提高整理技能之后对自己一件穿了三十年的夹克的抉择，故A项（知道什么时候放手）符合文意。故选A。

8~11.【答案】A、C、A、D
【解析】（1）细节理解题。根据第一段中的Research by the Policy Institute at King's.College London and Ipsos MORI showed that around 54% of British people will miss some parts of lockdown（封城），including family time.（伦敦国王学院政策研究所和益普索MORI的研究表明，大约54%的英国人会错过封锁的某些部分，包括家庭时间）可知，研究发现，大约一半英国人表示他们会怀念封城生活的某些方面。故选A。
（2）代词指代题。根据第二段中划线词所在句There is no doubt that the public would rather the pandemic hadn't happened at all — but  that doesn't mean it's been all bad for everyone，or that people see it de influencing their future.（毫无疑问，公众宁愿疫情根本没有发生，但这并不意味着这对每个人都不好，也不意味着人们认为这会影响他们的未来）可知，that指代上文"人们不希望疫情发生"这一想法。故选C。
（3）推理判断题。根据最后一段中的Gideon Skinner，research director at Ipsos MORI，said British people expect the pandemic will lead to long-term changes but bold different opinions on what the changes could be.（益普索MORI研究总监吉迪恩•斯金纳表示，英国人预计疫情将导致长期变化，但对可能发生的变化有着大胆的不同意见）可知，疫情带来的变化尚不清楚，人们对此也意见不一。故选A。
（4）推理判断题。根据全文内容，结合第一段中的Research by the Policy Institute at King's.College London and Ipsos MORI showed that around 54% of British people will miss some parts of lockdown（封城），including family time.（由伦敦国王学和莫利调查机构的政策研究所进行的研究显示，约54%的英国人将怀念封城期间的某些部分，包括与家人团聚的时间）可知，本文主要是向读者分享一项研究结果。故选D。
本文是说明文。一项研究发现人们会怀念封城期间生活中的某些方面，如家庭生活。
一、速读全文，了解大意知主题。
　　阅读能力一般指阅读速度和理解能力两个方面。阅读速度是阅读最基本的能力，考生必须在十分有限的时间内运用略读、扫读、跳读等技巧快速阅读，搜寻关键词、主题句，捕捉时空、顺序、情节、人物、观点，并且理清文章脉络，把握语篇实质。
二、看题干，带着问题读文章。
　　首先要掌握问题的类型，客观信息题可以从文章中直接找到答案；而主观判断题考查的是对文章的感情基调等，这类题必须经过对作者的态度、意图以及对整篇文章进行深一层的推理等。其次，了解试题题干以及各个选项所包含的信息，然后有针对性地对文章进行扫读，对有关信息进行快速定位。此法加强了阅读的针对性，提高了做题的准确率。
三、逻辑推理，做好深层理解题。
　　在实际阅读中，有时作者并未把意图说出来，阅读者要根据字面意思，通过语篇逻辑关系，研究细节的暗示，推敲作者的态度，理解文章的寓义。要求读者对文字的表面信息进行分析、挖掘和逻辑推理，不能就事论事，以偏概全。推理题在提问中常用的词有：infer，imply，suggest，indicate等。
四、猜词悟义，扫除阅读拦路虎。
　　猜词是应用英语的重要能力。它不但需要准确无误地理解上下文，而且要有较大的泛读量，掌握或认识较多的课外词汇。我们要学会"顺藤摸瓜"，通过构词，语法，定义，同位，对比，因果，常识，上下文等线索确定词义。

12~15.【答案】D、D、C、C
【解析】（1）段落大意题。根据第一段中的An artificial intelligence can decode （解码） words and sentences from brain activity with surprising—though still limited—accuracy.Using only a few seconds of brain activity data，the AI guesses what a person has heard.It lists the correct answer in its top 10 possibilities up to 73 percent of the time，researchers found in a study.（人工智能可以从大脑活动中解码单词和句子，尽管准确度仍然有限，但令人惊讶。人工智能只需要几秒钟的大脑活动数据，就能猜出一个人听到了什么。研究人员在一项研究中发现，在高达73%的情况下，它将正确答案列在前10种可能性中。）可知，第一段主要介绍了人工智能的一项新功能——可以从大脑活动中解码单词和句子。故选D。
（2）细节理解题。根据第二段中的Developed at the parent company of Facebook，Meta，the AI could eventually be used to help thousands of people around the world unable to communicate through speech，typing or gestures，researchers report August 25 at arXiv.org.（8月25日，研究人员在 arXiv.org 上作的报告称，这种人工智能由脸书的母公司Meta开发，最终可用于帮助全世界数以千计无法通过语音、打字或手势进行交流的人。）可知，人工智能或许对不能正常交流的人有益。故选D。
（3）目的意图题。根据第四段中的King and his colleagues trained a computational tool to detect words and sentences on 56，000 hours of speech recordings from 53 languages.（金和他的同事训练了一种计算工具，以检测来自53种语言的56000小时语音记录中的单词和句子。）结合全段可推知，第四段的目的是介绍该研究的过程。故选C。
（4）推理判断题。根据第三段中的Most existing technologies to help such patients communicate require risky brain surgeries to implant electrodes.This new approach "could provide a practical path to help patients without the use of invasive methods，" says neuroscientist Jean-Rémi King，a Meta AI researcher in Paris.（大多数现有的技术，以帮助这些病人沟通需要危险的脑部手术植入电极。这种新方法"可以提供一种实用的途径来帮助病人而不需要使用侵入性的方法，"神经科学家 Jean-Rémi King说，他是巴黎的Meta AI研究员。）可知，人工智能技术不需要给病人脑部做手术植入电极，所以说它能帮助病人避免危险的脑部手术。故选C。
