【2题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章Harbor Me by Jacqueline Woodson部分的“As they express the feelings and fears that they hid from others and try to make sense of the world around them, the kids show the effectiveness of talking to others.”（当他们表达自己对他人隐瞒的感觉和恐惧，并试图理解周围的世界时，孩子们展示了与他人交谈的有效性。）可知，Harbor Me这本书表明了沟通的重要性。故选D。

Paris is the city of dreams. If you plan to head to Paris for a study period, then perhaps a little reality check is in order. But my experience was a romantic one.
I paved my path to Paris through an exchange program. On arrival in Paris, I was constantly reminded of the official processes I had to complete — forms to be filled in, meetings to attend, the list seemed endless.
Then the real work began. Once classes were underway, I found myself volunteering to do oral presentations and assignments first, rather than last. This method proved to be very helpful.
Once I had finished class for the week I had an ever-increasing list of museums to visit, neighborhoods to explore, and cafes to sit in. Read books about Paris. Talk to locals and other foreigners living there. But the one thing that reading a book or talking to someone cannot do is to provide you with the experience of wandering Paris on foot. The people watching, the sounds of the city, the colors as the seasons change, they all add to the ecstasy that I experience in Paris as an exchange student.
After spending five months wandering through the charming neighborhoods, I fell in love with the atmosphere that came out from every open door, and with every spoken word. There is something comforting about walking to the market each Sunday to enjoy the beautiful display of fruits, vegetables and dairy products. There is warmth in saying bon jour to the passers-by.
On my last day in Paris, I confidently said, " Bonjour Monsieur," as I passed the little store down the street. I guess the best part about going on exchange in Paris is falling in love with the city in your own way. And I know mine is unique and special to me, my own little pieces of Paris.
4. What does the underlined word "ecstasy" in Paragraph 4 probably mean?
A. Courage. B. Happiness. C. Imagination. D. Reputation.
5. What does the passage mainly tell us?
A. A traveling experience. B. An exchange program
C. Charming neighborhoods. D. An exchange student's life.
6. Beyond reading books, which experience would the author treasure most?
A. Hanging around in Paris. B. Buying vegetables in the market
C. Enjoying coffee in his spare time. D. Greeting people in French in the street.
7. According to the passage, what left the author the deepest impression?
A. The presentations he did in class. B. The friendly people he met in Paris.
C. The special culture he experienced in the city. D. The academic achievement he made in his study.
【答案】4. B 5. D 6. A 7. C
【解析】
【分析】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了作者作为一名交换生在巴黎的所见所闻，内心感受等。
【4题详解】
词义猜测题。根据作者对在巴黎街上漫步的喜爱及第四段中的“The people watching, the sounds of the city, the colors as the seasons change, they all add to the ecstasy that I experience in Paris as an exchange student.(观看的人群，城市的声音，季节变换的颜色，都增加了我作为交换学生在巴黎体验的ecstasy)”可知，人们的注视，城市的声音，季节变化时的色彩，都增加了作者作为交换生体验巴黎的喜悦。由此推知，划线词的意思是“快乐，幸福”。A. Courage.勇气；B. Happiness.幸福；C. Imagination.想象力；D. Reputation.名誉。故选B。
【5题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段中“But my experience was a romantic one.(但我的经历很浪漫)”和第二段中“I paved my path to Paris through an exchange program.(我通过一个交换项目来到了巴黎)”可知，作者作为一名交换生来到巴黎，他认为自己的巴黎之行非常浪漫。从第二段到最后，作者详细叙述了在巴黎的所见所闻，内心感受等。所以整篇文章讲述的是一个交换生在巴黎的经历。故选D。
【6题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段中“the one thing that reading a book or talking to someone cannot do is to provide you with the experience of wandering Paris on foot.(有一件事是读书或与人交谈所做不到的，那就是让你有徒步漫游巴黎的体验)”可知，读书以及和人交谈无法提供步行在巴黎闲逛带给你的体验。由此判断出，除了读书，作者最珍贵的经历是漫步巴黎。故选A。
【7题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中“On my last day in Paris, I confidently said, " Bonjour Monsieur," as I passed the little store down the street. I guess the best part about going on exchange in Paris is falling in love with the city in your own way. And I know mine is unique and special to me, my own little pieces of Paris.(在巴黎的最后一天，当我经过沿街的小商店时，我自信地说：“Bonjour Monsieur”在。我猜在巴黎交流最棒的部分就是用你自己的方式爱上这个城市。这样的经历对我来说是独一无二的，是我自己对巴黎的感受)”由此判断出，给作者留下最深的印象是他在巴黎体验到了不同的风土人情，不同的文化。故选C。
C
Do you still remember Jurassic Park, an amazing movie where science brings dinosaurs back from extinction? Now some very smart scientists are working on a way to revive, not dinosaurs, but other extinct species like the woolly mammoth （长毛象）using the gene editing technology known as CRISPR.
As an evolutionary biologist, obviously, it would be amazing to bring back extinct creatures. But even if we can bring them back, we are not going to be able to control how they evolve in the future. No man is an island and neither is any other creature. We need an ecosystem in order to survive. So we can think a lot about the examples of reintroducing species into the environment, like the gray wolves into Yellowstone. Ecology is very complicated and it certainly wasn't important when we first introduce rabbits into Australia, which was a total disaster eventually.
All animals like birds and mammals have to learn from their parents. If we bring them back to life, who are going to be around to teach them? We have examples where in California we've had the reproduction of the condors （秃鹰）.What scientists tried to do is to feed the babies using a mother condor puppet. When these poor creatures were released into the wild, they had an unnatural liking for humans. They didn't behave the way they should have, for condors.
According to Performing Animal Welfare Society a healthy elephant costs about $70,000 per year to care for and an elderly elephant costs a good deal more. Of course, we are not talking about one. We're talking about many creatures. I don't think these creatures will have a future.
8. Why does the author mention the film in the first paragraph?
A. To recall an amazing movie.
B. To promote some extinct species.
C. To introduce the topic to be discussed.
D. To get to know some intelligent scientists.
9. What does the author want to tell us by the examples in paragraph 2?
A. Humans need a balanced ecosystem to survive.
B. To bring back extinct creatures was an unwise idea.
C. Helping endangered species proves to be beneficial for humans.
D. There were all sorts of positive effects about reintroducing species.
10. Which animal didn't act in its own way?
A. Condor. B. Gray wolf. C. Rabbit. D. Elephant.
11. What can be a suitable title for the text?
A. Is Jurassic Park an Amazing Movie?
B. What do Creatures Need to Survive?
C. Should We Bring Extinct Animals Back to Life?
D. How does an Evolutionary Biologist Protect Animals?
【答案】8. C 9. B 10. A 11. C
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇议论文。本文作者以话题“是否应该让灭绝的动物复活？”展开讨论，详细地陈述不支持让灭绝动物复活的几点原因。
【8题详解】
推理判断题。根据文中第一段末句“Now some very smart scientists are working on a way to revive, not dinosaurs, but other extinct species like the woolly mammoth (长毛象) using the gene editing technology known as CRISPR.”可知现在，一些非常聪明的科学家正在研究一种复活的方法，不是恐龙，而是其他灭绝的物种，比如长毛猛犸象，使用的是被称为CRISPR的基因编辑技术。及下文的讨论内容，由此判断出，作者提到侏罗纪公园这部电影的目的是为引出是否该复活灭绝物种的话题。故选C。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段But even if we can bring them back, we are not going to be able to control how they evolve in the future. No man is an island and neither is any other creature. We need an ecosystem in order to survive. So we can think a lot about the examples of reintroducing species into the environment, like the gray wolves into Yellowstone. Ecology is very complicated and it certainly wasn't important when we first introduce rabbits into Australia, which was a total disaster eventually.可知，但即使我们能把它们带回来，我们也无法控制它们在未来如何进化。人类不是孤立存在的，其他生物也不是。为了生存，我们需要一个生态系统。因此，我们可以考虑很多重新引入物种到环境中的例子，就像灰狼进入黄石公园一样。生态学是非常复杂的，当我们第一次把兔子引入澳大利亚的时候，这并不重要，但这是一场灾难。由此判断出，作者想通过第2段的例子告诉我们使灭绝的生物复活是个不明智的主意。故选B项。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据文中第三段“When these poor creatures were released into the wild, they had an unnatural liking for humans. They didn't behave the way they should have, for condors.”可知，当这些可怜的动物被放生到野外时，它们对人类产生了一种反常的喜爱。对于秃鹰来说，它们的行为不像它们应该做的那样。故选A。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文可知，本文作者以话题“是否应该让灭绝的动物复活？”展开讨论，详细地陈述不支持让灭绝动物复活的几点原因。所以短文的最佳标题为“我们应该让灭绝的动物复活吗”。故选C项。
D
New Deal Design, one of the world's leading tech design studios, has invented an artificial intelligence-equipped toy to fight the "distraction economy" by developing children's attention spans.
Called Spot, the toy is aimed at learning and discovery. It functions primarily as a handheld scanner that kids can point at an object around them, such as a flower or a bird, to hear it talk back.Using its AI software,Spot recognizes the object and voices a little monologue（独白）from it, processing information to suit children aged five to nine.
There's also a secondary function that comes into play at bedtime, when Spot uses its in-built projecto（r投影仪） to present a story made up around the day's discoveries.
Spot is a concept at this stage, one that grew out of the research New Deal Design conducted into children's development. The designers found that the right kind of toy could encourage focus,as opposed to instant satisfaction. They wanted to cultivate a kind of junior-level mindfulness that would set kids up with positive life skills.
In terms of appearance, Spot has a complicated look, with its 3D camera fixed in the head. The models are smooth, including a wooden handle,a button and a base. The choice of materials was inspired by traditional kids' building blocks.
When Spot recognizes an object, it blinks to signal it has locked the target. Its head also locks into place to avoid any shaking. As an example, New Deal Design describes a girl called Max, who among other things, encounters a robin while out with the toy. Via Spot, the bird says, "Hi Max, my name is Robin! Did you know ..."
At that night's Story Time, Spot starts "Once upon a time there was a little girl named Max who met a robin. One day, Max asked the robin ..." New Deal Design says that day summaries like this helps kids to relax and get better sleep. Seeing themselves at the centre of stories also helps to build self-confidence and self-awareness.
12. In which aspect do children benefit from the artificial intelligence-equipped toy?
A. encouraging focus B. giving an instant satisfaction
C. learning self-control D. developing positive life skills
13. According to the passage, which statement about Spot is right?
A. Spot tells stories programmed in advance.
B. Spot is beneficial to developing children’s attention spans.
C. Spot has already been used to fight the “distraction economy” now.
D. Spot’s appearance was inspired by traditional kids’ building blocks.
14. According to the text,who will the toy be useful for?
A. Tom, two years old, can’t recognize an object around him.
B. Max, eight years old, wants to make up a story about robin.
C. Tina, nine years old, can’t concentrate her attention on her class.
D. Mike,twelve years old, wants to learn something about artificial intelligence.
15. What is the passage mainly about?
A. A scientific invention B. A learning program
C. An creative method D. A tech design studios
【答案】12. A 13. B 14. C 15. A
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇说明文。主要介绍了一个配备人工智能的玩具，通过培养儿童的注意力持续时间，可以鼓励孩子的专注力。
【详解】1.细节理解题。根据第一段中“ ...an artificial intelligence-equipped toy to fight the "distraction economy" by developing children's attention spans.”（一个装备有人工智能的玩具，通过培养孩子的注意力广度来对抗“分心经济”。）可知，这个人工智能的玩具可以通过通过培养孩子的注意力，来避免孩子的分心。选项A符合文意。故选A。
2.细节理解题。根据第四段“Spot is a concept at this stage, one that grew out of the research New Deal Design conducted into children's development. The designers found that the right kind of toy could encourage focus,as opposed to instant satisfaction”（Spot目前只是一个概念，一个从研究儿童发展的新政设计中产生的概念。设计师们发现，合适的玩具能够鼓励专注，而不是瞬间的满足感。）可知，Spot这个玩具能够鼓励孩子专注力。选项B符合文意。故选B。
3.推理判断题。结合第一段可知，这种人工智能可以通过培养儿童的注意力持续时间，鼓励孩子的专注力。所以就是说，对于有注意力难以集中地孩子而言是有帮助的。选项C“ can’t concentrate her attention on her class”符合文意。故选C。
4.主旨大意题。根据文章第一段介绍，一个配备人工智能的玩具，通过培养儿童的注意力持续时间，来对抗“分心经济”。同时结合下文对这种玩具特征的介绍，可知，本文主要介绍了一个新的人工智能玩具。选项A“一个科学发明”符合文意。故选A。
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。
Going on holiday doesn’t have to be bad for the environment, and there are still plenty of ways in which you can have a much-deserved break without harming the environment.
Forget planes.
While most forms of transport produce carbon dioxide, one of the gases responsible for global warming, planes have a massive carbon footprint because of the huge number of miles they travel. ____16____ There’s so much to see and do in the U.K., yet most of us overlook the endless possibilities. There’s the unparalleled beauty of the Cornish coast and the Peak and Lake District. Enjoy the history of a stunning Welsh castle, try boating on the Norfolk Broads or riding the “Hogwarts Express” across Scotland. Or try taking the train over to Europe — within six hours of London are Amsterdam’s famous art galleries. Alternatively, take the car to Cannes in just over half a day or the ferry to Scandinavia for holidays you’d normally only dream of.
____17____
Hotels can be huge producers of greenhouse gases — think about the water that’s wasted, all the bathroom products thrown out half used and all the buffet food that goes uneaten. So choose an eco-friendly option instead. Camping and a home stay — where you live with a family in their own home — are two of the best options. But if you insist on staying in the hotel, some of the things to look out for are hotels made from ustainable materials, which are energy efficient or use their own solar energy and that recycle. ____18____
Pack with care.
The less you take, the lighter your carbon footprint, because the heavier your luggage is, the more fuel it takes to carry. So pack light and responsibly. ____19____ All of their bottles, from shampoo and conditioner to body wash and moisturizer, are now made from recycled plastic that can be repurposed again and again so no new plastic is produced. And their iconic soap bars now also come in plastic-free packaging.
Buy gifts responsibly.
Bringing back gifts for friends and loved ones is part of the fun of a holiday. ____20____ Avoid anything plastic, or if it is plastic, make sure it is 100% recyclable, and make sure your friends will love whatever you give them so it isn’t just thrown in the bin headed for landfill. Try to buy presents made by local craftsmen, which will benefit the community and help their economy. And don’t bring back anything made from shells, corals or animal products, because you don’t know if they’re from sustainable sources.
A. Consider living in an eco-friendly hotel.
B. Think about eco-friendly accommodation.
C. But make sure you choose items carefully.
D. Some also have planting programs to attract wildlife.
E Why not skip flying in favor of a holiday closer to home?
F. Rather than lie on a beach, why not help our precious planet when you’re away?
G. Take environmentally-friendly products with you, such as products from a household company.
【答案】16. E 17. B 18. D 19. G 20. C
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章讲述了如何在度假时更好地保护环境的几条建议。
【16题详解】
根据空前“While most forms of transport produce carbon dioxide, one of the gases responsible for global warming, planes have a massive carbon footprint because of the huge number of miles they travel.(虽然大多数交通工具都会产生导致全球变暖的二氧化碳，但由于飞机飞行了大量的英里数，因此会产生大量的碳足迹)”和空后“There’s so much to see and do in the U.K., yet most of us overlook the endless possibilities.(英国有那么多可看可做的事情，但我们大多数人都忽视了无限的可能性)”可知，上文提到坐飞机不利于保护环境，下文提到英国也有很多值得去的地方，故空处应是建议大家选择不要坐飞机出行，结合选项可知，选项E“为什么不放弃飞机旅行，选择离家近一点的假期呢？”这一句承上启下，符合题意。故选E。
【17题详解】
空处是本段的主旨句。根据本段中“Hotels can be huge producers of greenhouse gases — think about the water that’s wasted, all the bathroom products thrown out half used and all the buffet food that goes uneaten. So choose an eco-friendly option instead.(酒店是温室气体的巨大制造者——想想那些被浪费掉的水，那些被浪费掉一半的浴室用品，还有那些没有被吃掉的自助餐。所以选择一个环保的住宿地)”可知，本段主要讲述选择一个环保的住宿地，根据选项可知，选项B“考虑环保住宿地”能概括本段大意，符合题意。故选B。
【18题详解】
上文“But if you insist on staying in the hotel, some of the things to look out for are hotels made from sustainable materials, which are energy efficient or use their own solar energy and that recycle.(但如果你坚持住在酒店里，一些事情需要注意的是由可持续材料制成的酒店，这些材料是节能的，或者使用自己的太阳能和可循环利用的)”是描述一些环保的酒店，选项D“一些还有种植项目来吸引野生动物”与上文话题一致，故选D。
【19题详解】
根据空后“All of their bottles, from shampoo and conditioner to body wash and moisturizer, are now made from recycled plastic that can be repurposed again and again so no new plastic is produced. And their iconic soap bars now also come in plastic-free packaging.(它们所有的瓶子，从洗发水、护发素到沐浴露和润肤霜，现在都是由回收塑料制成的，这些塑料可以一次又一次地重复使用，所以不会产生新的塑料。它们标志性的香皂现在也采用无塑料包装)”可知，空处是讲述要携带环保产品，根据选项可知，选项G“随身携带一些环保产品，比如家庭用品公司的产品”符合题意。故选G。
【20题详解】
根据空后“Avoid anything plastic, or if it is plastic, make sure it is 100% recyclable, and make sure your friends will love whatever you give them so it isn’t just thrown in the bin headed for landfill. Try to buy presents made by local craftsmen, which will benefit the community and help their economy. And don’t bring back anything made from shells, corals or animal products, because you don’t know if they’re from sustainable sources.(避免任何塑料制品，或者如果是塑料制品，确保它是100%可回收的，并确保你的朋友会喜欢你送给他们的任何东西，这样就不会被扔进垃圾箱去垃圾填埋场)”可知，下文具体讲述如何选择礼物，根据选项可知，选项C“但你要确保仔细挑选物品”引起下文，故选C。

第二节：读后续写(满分25分)
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。
You know how when big things in your life aren’t going well and the little things bother you more? That happened to me last year. Like many people during the pandemic, my husband, Paul, was laid off. I was still working, but my job was only part-time and would likely be ending soon too. I was worried about money, pandemic and our future.
That’s when our mailboxes really started getting to me. I’d never liked our mailboxes much. They stood at the end of our long driveway, far enough away from our house. Fortunately, I didn’t see them often. The mailboxes had already been in rough shape when we moved in and the paint was faded.
At some point, someone had driven into the pole. It was now bent slightly, making the mailboxes bend, pointing in different directions. Still, because the boxes could hold the mail and the mail carrier wasn’t complaining, there really was no need to replace them.
“I wish we could have better mailboxes,” I found myself thinking as I pulled out of the driveway one day on my way to work. It was just a passing thought. I probably would have forgotten all about it if not for the news we got the next morning.
The next day, my neighbor Ailsa told me a girl drove her car right into the mailboxes and completely knocked them down. Ailsa saw the accident and gave her our number and information. “That certainly wasn’t in our budget,” I thought. Though I wanted new mailboxes, getting them would be expensive. With our income decreasing since Paul’s layoff, this was an expense we didn’t need. I sighed.
However, the next day where our old, rusted mailboxes had once stood were two new shiny mailboxes-one black, one white. Each one had large, neat numbers on the sides, the white mailbox with black numbers and the black one with white numbers. They were beautiful. I sat there, feeling surprised.
注意：
1.续写词数应为150左右；
2.请按如下格式作答。
Paragraph 1:
I opened one of the mailboxes and found a note.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Paragraph 2:
When we called, the girl’s mother answered.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】One possible version:
I opened one of the mailboxes and found a note. “Dear owner,” it read, “I am so sorry that I hit your mailboxes. I bought new pretty ones and replaced them. Again, I am so sorry. Have a wonderful day!” The writer, Audree, had bought two new mailboxes for us and she had left her phone number and address in case we needed anything else. We did - we needed to thank her. We also wanted to make sure that she hadn’t been injured.
When we called, the girl’s mother answered. “Audree is 19 years old. She’s only been driving for a year. She was not hurt. This was a great learning experience for Audree,” her mother said. From her mother, I learned that Audree had a part-time job and with the money she earned from the job, she bought the mailboxes. The young girl makes me believe that though life rarely goes as planned, it will surprise us if we are brave enough. So don’t give up the effort to maintain our hope and optimism.
