阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
A
New Orleans is home to a variety of high-rise bars. We suggest hitting the heights to try one out first-hand. Here are some of the best rooftop bars in New Orleans.
Grid
Located on the 9th floor of the NOPSI Hotel, Grid serves up the best sunsets and impressive views of the Mississippi River and city skyline. Find a table and drink ice-cold beers to the fullest. If you’re lucky enough to be staying at the hotel, you’ll have access to the pool area too. For everyone else, the bar is open from 4 p.m.
Alto
On the 11th floor of the Chic Hotel, Alto has all the ingredients for a winning rooftop bar. Sweeping views of the city? Check. Seasonally-changing cocktail menu? Of course. Pool? Got it. What’s more, the pool is open to non-hotel guests too. With live music throughout the year, Alto is a perfect spot to start and end your night.
VUE
Occupying the 14th floor of the Higgins Hotel, Vue features views of Canal Street, Vieux Square and out to the Mississipi. Masterful mixologists (调酒师) will serve you a delicious cocktail and there’s also a very good range of local and imported bottled beers. It’s one of the most stylish spots in the city, particularly popular with 20-somethings on a date.
Riviera
Another poolside offering, this time at the Royal Hotel. Floating seven floors above the busy streets below, it offers grand views over the Mississippi River and the historic French Quarter. The pool is sadly for guests only, but it does make a great backdrop for your rooftop drinks. If you’ve got a sweet tooth, you could head straight for something called Jumbo Sandwich instead.

I missed the clear blue skies of home in Colorado over my grandparents’ farm. Some of my earliest memories were of sitting on my grandfather’s knee while he played his violin. When I was old enough, I went to college on a music scholarship. But when I came to New York City, I left my violin behind.
“As long as you’ve got music, you’ve got good company, Jane,” my grandfather always said. I didn’t have either in my life these days. Looking at the gray sky, I was wondering whether I could get auditions- to give a short performance to be in a film.
The winter sky was starting to turn purple when I heard something unexpected. An orchestra was practicing. I followed the sounds to the park and saw the musicians practicing. I approached the director during a break. “This is a community orchestra” he said. “One you’re welcome to join. All you need is an instrument.” But I couldn’t afford to buy one and it wasn’t the kind of thing my parents could just ship from Colorado.
As I walked back with heavy steps, a sign made me stop short: Schumacher Violin Maker. From the window, I saw an old man wearing glasses adjusting the bridge on a violin. I stepped inside and told him my story. When I’d finished, he said,“So, you need a violin.” I nodded in embarrassment. He surveyed the rows of instruments and selected a violin with a bright color. “Take it,” he said. “Go and make your music.” I stood there, surprised, as he handed it to me.
Holding the violin, I felt like I’d just woken up from a dream. But it was real—as real as the strings I was touching. My heart pounding with excitement, I headed for the park. There was a chair in the orchestra waiting for me. Playing the violin, I immediately felt at home. I made a ton of friends there. Music had brought me good company, just as my grandfather had promised.
4. What might be the author’s dream job in New York City?
A. An actress. B. An artist. C. A violinist. D. A composer.
5. How does the author express her mood at different times?
A. By creating dialogues. B. By recording emotional conflicts.
C. By citing her grandfather’s words. D. By describing the colors of the sky.
6. Who did the author turn to for a violin?
A. Her grandfather. B. Her parents.
C. The shopkeeper. D. The director.
7. What can we infer from the last paragraph about the author?
A. She woke up from her dream. B. She failed in her career attempts.
C. Her grandfather lived in her heart. D. Music gave her a sense of belonging.
【答案】4. A 5. D 6. C 7. D
【解析】

【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第二段“Looking at the gray sky, I was wondering whether I could get auditions- to give a short performance to be in a film.(看着灰色的天空，我在想我是否能得到试镜机会——为一部电影做一个简短的表演。)”可知，作者在纽约的梦想工作是成为一名女演员。故选A。

【6题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第四段“From the window, I saw an old man wearing glasses adjusting the bridge on a violin. I stepped inside and told him my story. When I’d finished, he said, “So, you need a violin.” I nodded in embarrassment. He surveyed the rows of instruments and selected a violin with a bright color.“Take it,” he said. “Go and make your music.” I stood there, surprised, as he handed it to me.( 从窗口，我看到一位戴眼镜的老人正在调整小提琴上的琴桥。我走进去，告诉他我的故事。当我完成后，他说:“那么，你需要一把小提琴。”我尴尬地点了点头。他察看了一排乐器，挑了一把颜色鲜艳的小提琴。“拿去吧，”他说。“去做你的音乐吧。”)”可知，作者向店主要一把小提琴。故选C。

推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“Playing the violin, I immediately felt at home. (拉小提琴时，我立刻有了家的感觉)”可知，音乐给她归属感。故选D。
C
A recent paper describes bees rolling tiny wooden balls, not for a reward, but apparently just for fun. This discovery emphasizes a long-standing conflict in our view of animals. On the one hand, we want to find the features that distinguish humans from other animals: tools, language and a theory of mind. On the other hand, we delight in finding animals that break those boundaries: chimps, crows and now bees that use tools, dolphins with signature whistles. But what do those boundaries mean?
As a biologist who studies animal behaviour, I am puzzled by this effort to rank animals by their capabilities. I applaud the desire to show that animals are like us, but we can recognize animals for what they are, and be amazed at their abilities, without having to make their behaviour mirror that of humans.
Once we get out from the assumption that animals have to be like people with human motivations and feelings, we are freed up to consider the mechanisms (机理) behind the behaviours. For example, the same serotonin (血清素) influences anxiety in humans and maze (迷宫) exploration in crayfish. In a tank divided into well-lit and shadowy areas, crayfish explore both, but prefer the darker areas, consistent with their night lifestyle.
Does this mean crayfish experience anxiety? No. In the bees’ case, they might be exhibiting some very interesting behaviour that has nothing to do with wanting to “have fun”—but we will never examine it if we simply assume they are playing just like people. I am not disparaging the bee researchers’ conclusions, and I am not trying to be a killjoy, but there is something about all this humanizing that prevent exploration, instead of encouraging it.
8. What’s the purpose of paragraph 1?
A. To list out facts. B. To raise an argument.
C. To arouse readers’ interest. D. To explain a concept.
9. What can we learn from paragraph 3?
A. Behaviour mechanisms work. B. Crayfish prefer the light sections.
C. The assumption proves reasonable. D. Animals are similar to human in mind.
10. What does the underlined word “disparaging” mean in paragraph 4?
A. Criticizing. B. Explaining.
C. Confirming. D. Acknowledging.
11. Which of the following can be the best title for the text?
A. Feelings: Guiding Human Being B. Boundaries: Making No Sense
C. Humanizing: Covering the Truth D. Animals: Mirroring Human Behaviours
【答案】8. B 9. A 10. A 11. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇议论文，主要讲的是作者赞赏展示动物和我们一样的愿望，但我们可以认识动物的本来面目，并对它们的能力感到惊讶，而不必把它们的行为模仿成人类的行为，一旦我们摆脱了动物必须像人类一样具有人类动机和情感的假设，我们就可以自由地考虑行为背后的机制。
【8题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段的“A recent paper describes bees rolling tiny wooden balls, not for a reward, but apparently just for fun. This discovery emphasizes a long-standing conflict in our view of animals.(最近的一篇论文描述了蜜蜂滚动小木球，不是为了奖励，而显然只是为了好玩。这一发现强调了我们对动物的看法中一个长期存在的冲突。)”可推知，第一段的目的是提出论点——我们对动物的看法中一个长期存在的冲突。故选B。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段的“Once we get out from the assumption that animals have to be like people with human motivations and feelings, we are freed up to consider the mechanisms (机理) behind the behaviours. For example, the same serotonin (血清素) influences anxiety in humans and maze (迷宫) exploration in crayfish. In a tank divided into well-lit and shadowy areas, crayfish explore both, but prefer the darker areas, consistent with their night lifestyle.(一旦我们摆脱了动物必须像人类一样具有人类动机和情感的假设，我们就可以自由地考虑行为背后的机制。例如，同样的血清素影响人类的焦虑和小龙虾的迷宫探索。在一个被分成光线充足和阴暗的区域的水箱里，小龙虾会在两个区域都探索，但更喜欢黑暗的区域，这与它们的夜间生活方式一致。)”可知，我们可以从第三段中了解到行为机制起作用。故选A。
【10题详解】
词句猜测题。根据最后一段的“In the bees’ case, they might be exhibiting some very interesting behaviour that has nothing to do with wanting to “have fun”—but we will never examine it if we simply assume they are playing just like people.(在蜜蜂的例子中，它们可能会表现出一些非常有趣的行为，这些行为与想要“玩得开心”无关——但如果我们简单地假设它们像人一样玩耍，我们就永远不会研究它。)”和“and I am not trying to be a killjoy, but there is something about all this humanizing that prevent exploration, instead of encouraging it(我并不想扫兴，但所有这些人性化的东西阻碍了探索，而不是鼓励探索)”可知，作者在此声明的是自己并不是在贬低蜜蜂研究人员的结论，也不是想要扫兴，因此划线词disparaging的意思是“贬低，诋毁”，和criticizing意思相近，故选A。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第二段的“As a biologist who studies animal behaviour, I am puzzled by this effort to rank animals by their capabilities. I applaud the desire to show that animals are like us, but we can recognize animals for what they are, and be amazed at their abilities, without having to make their behaviour mirror that of humans.(作为一名研究动物行为的生物学家，我对这种按能力给动物排序的做法感到困惑。我赞赏展示动物和我们一样的愿望，但我们可以认识动物的本来面目，并对它们的能力感到惊讶，而不必把它们的行为模仿成人类的行为。)”和第三段的“Once we get out from the assumption that animals have to be like people with human motivations and feelings, we are freed up to consider the mechanisms (机理) behind the behaviours.(一旦我们摆脱了动物必须像人类一样具有人类动机和情感的假设，我们就可以自由地考虑行为背后的机制。)”可知，本文主要讲的是作者赞赏展示动物和我们一样的愿望，但我们可以认识动物的本来面目，并对它们的能力感到惊讶，而不必把它们的行为模仿成人类的行为，一旦我们摆脱了动物必须像人类一样具有人类动机和情感的假设，我们就可以自由地考虑行为背后的机制，也就是说动物的人性化掩盖了关于它们的行为，因此最好的标题是C选项“Humanizing: Covering the Truth(人性化：掩盖真相)”，故选C。
D
A scanning system combined with artificial intelligence is automatically assessing cows’ health status twice a day on dozens of “smart” dairy farms across the UK.
Overhead three-dimensional cameras film the animals’ backs as they leave the milking bam, while sensors read their individual identity tags. The associated computers then use machine learning to process the data, providing farmers with critical daily information about each cow’s weight, body condition and mobility. “We can detect certain health conditions, including lameness (跛行) , just by scanning the cows walking past, without even having to see their hooves (蹄子),” says Wenhao Zhang at the University of the West of England (UWE) in Bristol, UK.
While farmers are well trained to recognise such issues as early as possible, they often miss subtle, day-to-day changes in individual cows. Because they are a prey (猎物) species, cows will also naturally hide signs of discomfort, such as lameness, when they think they are being watched, says Melvyn Smith, who designed the system with Mark Hansen, both at UWE.
In an initial study of 200 dairy cows on one farm, Smith, Hansen and their colleagues placed a computer and 3D cameras in a milking bam. They aimed the cameras over an arrow walkway that cows pass through when they are finished milking. A near tag reader,set at the cows, head level, sets off the cameras to record. “The beauty of this equipment is that it’s just passively sitting there, unobserved by the animal,” says Smith. “And every time they go past — so every time they’re milked, which is usually twice a day — it’s gathering data.”
Kate Dutton-Regester at the University of Queensland in Australia says the system is “a great innovation”. “The dairy industry needs an automated, non-intrusive (非侵入式) monitoring system that can aid dairy farmers in observing the health of their herd in a timely and efficient manner, and this technology meets those criteria,” she says.
12. What can we know about the scanning system?
A. It was designed by Wenhao Zhang.
B. It can monitor the health of the cows.
C. It can help cure the lameness of the cows.
D. It provides farms with farming information.
13. Why are well-trained farmers mentioned in paragraph 3?
A. To compare different scanning devices.
B. To demonstrate their high skills in farming.
C. To stress the advantage of the scanning system.
D To introduce the operation of the scanning system.
14. What is the highlight of the scanning system?
A. It includes a 3D camera. B. It can gather data.
C. It can’t be noticed by cows. D. It is beautifully designed.
15. What do Kate’s words imply?
A. The dairy industry needs improving.
B. Well-trained farmers will be replaced.
C. The scanning system has been widely used.
D. The scanning system benefits the dairy industry.
【答案】12. B 13. C 14. C 15. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是说明文。文章介绍了一种智能扫描系统，该系统能在奶牛注意到不到的情况下检测它们的健康状况。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“A scanning system combined with artificial intelligence is automatically assessing cows’ health status twice a day on dozens of “smart” dairy farms across the UK.(在英国数十个“智能”奶牛场，一个与人工智能相结合的扫描系统每天两次自动评估奶牛的健康状况)”可知，该扫描系统可以监测奶牛的健康状况。故选B。
【13题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段的““We can detect certain health conditions, including lameness (跛行) , just by scanning the cows walking past, without even having to see their hooves (蹄子),” says Wenhao Zhang at the University of the West of England (UWE) in Bristol, UK.(“我们可以通过扫描走过的奶牛来检测某些健康状况，包括跛行，甚至不需要看它们的蹄子。” 英国布里斯托尔西英格兰大学的Wenhao Zhang说)可知，该扫描仪能快速且准确地检测出奶牛的健康状况，而且不用看蹄子就能判断出跛行。根据第三段“While farmers are well trained to recognise such issues as early as possible, they often miss subtle, day-to-day changes in individual cows. Because they are a prey (猎物) species, cows will also naturally hide signs of discomfort, such as lameness, when they think they are being watched, says Melvyn Smith, who designed the system with Mark Hansen, both at UWE.(虽然农民受过良好的培训，可以尽早发现这些问题，但他们往往会忽略个别奶牛日常的细微变化。与马克·汉森共同设计该系统的梅尔文·史密斯说，因为奶牛是猎物，当它们认为自己被监视时，它们也会自然地隐藏不舒服的迹象，比如跛行)”可推知，本段提到受过良好训练的农民是为了强调扫描系统的优势。故选C。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段的““The beauty of this equipment is that it’s just passively sitting there, unobserved by the animal,” says Smith.(“这种设备的美妙之处在于，它只是被动地坐在那里，动物没有注意到，”Smith说)”可知，该扫描系统的亮点是不会被奶牛注意到。故选C。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段的““The dairy industry needs an automated, non-intrusive (非侵入式) monitoring system that can aid dairy farmers in observing the health of their herd in a timely and efficient manner, and this technology meets those criteria,” she says.(“乳制品行业需要一个自动化的、非侵入式的监测系统，它可以帮助奶农及时有效地观察牛群的健康状况，而这项技术符合这些标准，”她说)”可推知，Kate的话表明该扫描系统有利于乳品业。故选D。

【36题详解】
考查比较级。句意：去年有600多万人参加了游学活动，甚至高于2019年大流行前的480万人。由than可知，空格处用比较级higher，故填higher。
【37题详解】
考查定语从句。句意：游学可以追溯到宋明时期，当时许多诗人都写下了他们的游学经历。空格处引导的是非限制性定语从句，从句中不缺主语或宾语，先行词Song and Ming dynasties是时间，因此空格处用关系副词when，故填when。
【38题详解】
考查时态和主谓一致。句意：中国在改革开放期间形成了一个游学产业，在过去的几十年里得到了快速发展。由in the past decades可知，句子时态用现在完成时，which指代的先行词“industry for study travel”是单数，因此空格处是has seen。故填has seen。

【41题详解】

考查非谓语动词。句意：许多从事教育旅游的人都曾经在旅行社工作过，有些人只是把它当作一门生意。句中谓语是are，空格处用非谓语动词，people和involve之间是逻辑动宾关系，因此空格处用过去分词表被动，作后置定语，故填involved。
【43题详解】
考查介词。句意：许多从事教育旅游的人都曾经在旅行社工作过，有些人只是把它当作一门生意。根据语境可知，句子表示“许多从事教育旅游的人都曾经在旅行社工作过，有些人只是把它当作一门生意”，空格处意为“作为”，是as，故填as。
【44题详解】
考查连词。句意：有必要制作更专业的游学指南，并招募人才来开发课程。“study travel guides”和“recruit (招募) talents to develop courses”之间是并列关系，句子是肯定句，因此空格处用and表并列，故填and。
【45题详解】
考查不定式。句意：我们还需要一个国家级的标准来帮助我们更好地制定招聘要求和员工培训。根据语境可知，句子表示“我们还需要一个国家级的标准来帮助我们更好地制定招聘要求和员工培训”，空格处用不定式表目的，故填to help。

47. 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。
Sledding Alone
“Come on, Simon,” said Gabe. “Let’s try out our new sleds (雪橇)! The snow is perfect.”
“I’m not ready,” Simon said. He watched his older brother throw on his jacket and head for the door.
“What’s to get ready?” Gabe asked.
Simon wanted to say “I need to learn how to control the sled” or “What if the other kids laugh if I mess up?”. But he said nothing.
“You’re going to miss a lot of fun,” Gabe said.
“Go with your brother, Simon,” said Mom. “He’ll show you how to do it.”
Simon took as much time as he could pulling on his snow pants and boots, zipping up his jacket, and finding his helmet and gloves. His brother paced the front hall. “Let’s go!”
The brothers walked to the park, the sleds knocking against their snow pants. Swish, swish, swish. The wind circled like a lasso (套索) around them.
Simon could see the sledding hill ahead of them. To him, it looked more like a sledding mountain. It was so high that the park district had built wooden steps into the hillside to help sledders climb back up. Kids were taking turns on sleds, screaming all the way down. Simon couldn’t tell if their cries meant they were happy or terrified. He knew which one he felt.
Gabe was taking the steps two at a time. “Come on!” he called to Simon.
Simon started up. He was both sweating and freezing, short of breath. Should he turn back? But the line of kids on the steps behind him meant he had to keep climbing.
At the top, the boys joined a group of kids waiting their turn. Simon stamped his feet to stay warm. Was he the only one who had butterflies in stomach?
His brother stopped and looked at Simon. “Do you want me to go down with you?” he asked When they were younger，they used to ride on one sled down the gentle slope (斜坡) in their backyard.
“Are you two going or not?” a girl behind him said impatiently.
注意：
1. 续写词数应为150左右；
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Simon took a deep breath. “I’m going. By myself.”
______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Thankfully the sled approached the flat ground.
______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】Possible Version:
Simon took a deep breath. “I’m going. By myself.” He climbed into the sled and grasped the handles, his heart pounding. Gabe gave him a small push on his back. Suddenly, he was dashing down the hill. The wind howled. The cold bit. He was struggling to keep balance when the sled swung around and sent him racing down backward. Backward! He couldn’t stop. Faster and faster he went. He couldn’t even scream. Was he going to crash? Why had he thought this was a good idea?
Thankfully the sled approached the flat ground. Simon’s sled slowed down. Before he knew it, the sled jumped to a stop at the man-made hill of snow. He rolled out and lay on his back, breathing hard, but in great relief. “Are you all right?” shouted Gabe, throwing his sled and running towards him. Seeing his older brother’s face calmed Simon. He sat up slowly and looked around. “Simon, say something! Say something!” Gabe said. Simon grinned, “Again?”
【解析】
【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了Gabe和Simon是两兄弟，Gabe叫Simon跟他一起去玩雪橇，Simon有点犹豫，因为他不太会，但是妈妈叫Simon跟Gabe一起去，兄弟俩向公园走去，公园区在山坡上建了木台阶，帮助雪橇运动员爬到山上去，孩子们轮流坐雪橇，一路尖叫着下山，Simon有点害怕，在犹豫要不要和哥哥同坐一个雪橇下去，身后排队的一个女生不耐烦地问他们要不要下去。
【详解】1.段落续写：
①由第一段首句内容“西蒙深吸了一口气。“我走了。由我自己。””可知，第一段可描写Simon自己一个人坐雪橇下山坡的过程和感受。
②由第二段首句内容“谢天谢地，雪橇驶近了平地。”可知，第二段可描写雪橇停下后Simon的反应。
2.续写线索：爬山雪橇，抓住把手——冲下山——努力保持平衡——减速——停下——躺下——坐起来——想再来一次
3.词汇激活
行为类
①抓住：grasp/seize
②冲下：dash down/rush down
③停下：jump to a stop/come to a stop
情绪类
①如释重负：in great relief/feel a sense of relief
②笑：grin/smile
【点睛】[高分句型1] Why had he thought this was a good idea? (由that引导的宾语从句，省略了that)
[高分句型2] Before he knew it, the sled jumped to a stop at the man-made hill of snow. (由before引导的时间状语从句)

A
New Orleans is home to a variety of high-rise bars. We suggest hitting the heights to try one out first-hand. Here are some of the best rooftop bars in New Orleans.
Grid
Located on the 9th floor of the NOPSI Hotel, Grid serves up the best sunsets and impressive views of the Mississippi River and city skyline. Find a table and drink ice-cold beers to the fullest. If you’re lucky enough to be staying at the hotel, you’ll have access to the pool area too. For everyone else, the bar is open from 4 p.m.
Alto
On the 11th floor of the Chic Hotel, Alto has all the ingredients for a winning rooftop bar. Sweeping views of the city? Check. Seasonally-changing cocktail menu? Of course. Pool? Got it. What’s more, the pool is open to non-hotel guests too. With live music throughout the year, Alto is a perfect spot to start and end your night.
VUE
Occupying the 14th floor of the Higgins Hotel, Vue features views of Canal Street, Vieux Square and out to the Mississipi. Masterful mixologists (调酒师) will serve you a delicious cocktail and there’s also a very good range of local and imported bottled beers. It’s one of the most stylish spots in the city, particularly popular with 20-somethings on a date.
Riviera
Another poolside offering, this time at the Royal Hotel. Floating seven floors above the busy streets below, it offers grand views over the Mississippi River and the historic French Quarter. The pool is sadly for guests only, but it does make a great backdrop for your rooftop drinks. If you’ve got a sweet tooth, you could head straight for something called Jumbo Sandwich instead.

I missed the clear blue skies of home in Colorado over my grandparents’ farm. Some of my earliest memories were of sitting on my grandfather’s knee while he played his violin. When I was old enough, I went to college on a music scholarship. But when I came to New York City, I left my violin behind.
“As long as you’ve got music, you’ve got good company, Jane,” my grandfather always said. I didn’t have either in my life these days. Looking at the gray sky, I was wondering whether I could get auditions- to give a short performance to be in a film.
The winter sky was starting to turn purple when I heard something unexpected. An orchestra was practicing. I followed the sounds to the park and saw the musicians practicing. I approached the director during a break. “This is a community orchestra” he said. “One you’re welcome to join. All you need is an instrument.” But I couldn’t afford to buy one and it wasn’t the kind of thing my parents could just ship from Colorado.
As I walked back with heavy steps, a sign made me stop short: Schumacher Violin Maker. From the window, I saw an old man wearing glasses adjusting the bridge on a violin. I stepped inside and told him my story. When I’d finished, he said,“So, you need a violin.” I nodded in embarrassment. He surveyed the rows of instruments and selected a violin with a bright color. “Take it,” he said. “Go and make your music.” I stood there, surprised, as he handed it to me.
Holding the violin, I felt like I’d just woken up from a dream. But it was real—as real as the strings I was touching. My heart pounding with excitement, I headed for the park. There was a chair in the orchestra waiting for me. Playing the violin, I immediately felt at home. I made a ton of friends there. Music had brought me good company, just as my grandfather had promised.
4. What might be the author’s dream job in New York City?
A. An actress. B. An artist. C. A violinist. D. A composer.
5. How does the author express her mood at different times?
A. By creating dialogues. B. By recording emotional conflicts.
C. By citing her grandfather’s words. D. By describing the colors of the sky.
6. Who did the author turn to for a violin?
A. Her grandfather. B. Her parents.
C. The shopkeeper. D. The director.
7. What can we infer from the last paragraph about the author?
A. She woke up from her dream. B. She failed in her career attempts.
C. Her grandfather lived in her heart. D. Music gave her a sense of belonging.
【答案】4. A 5. D 6. C 7. D
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了作者在纽约找工作遇到挫折时，遇到了一位好心的店主，送她一把小提琴加入了公园的管弦乐队，音乐给了她归属感，也让她想起了自己的爷爷。

A recent paper describes bees rolling tiny wooden balls, not for a reward, but apparently just for fun. This discovery emphasizes a long-standing conflict in our view of animals. On the one hand, we want to find the features that distinguish humans from other animals: tools, language and a theory of mind. On the other hand, we delight in finding animals that break those boundaries: chimps, crows and now bees that use tools, dolphins with signature whistles. But what do those boundaries mean?
As a biologist who studies animal behaviour, I am puzzled by this effort to rank animals by their capabilities. I applaud the desire to show that animals are like us, but we can recognize animals for what they are, and be amazed at their abilities, without having to make their behaviour mirror that of humans.
Once we get out from the assumption that animals have to be like people with human motivations and feelings, we are freed up to consider the mechanisms (机理) behind the behaviours. For example, the same serotonin (血清素) influences anxiety in humans and maze (迷宫) exploration in crayfish. In a tank divided into well-lit and shadowy areas, crayfish explore both, but prefer the darker areas, consistent with their night lifestyle.
Does this mean crayfish experience anxiety? No. In the bees’ case, they might be exhibiting some very interesting behaviour that has nothing to do with wanting to “have fun”—but we will never examine it if we simply assume they are playing just like people. I am not disparaging the bee researchers’ conclusions, and I am not trying to be a killjoy, but there is something about all this humanizing that prevent exploration, instead of encouraging it.
8. What’s the purpose of paragraph 1?
A. To list out facts. B. To raise an argument.
C. To arouse readers’ interest. D. To explain a concept.
9. What can we learn from paragraph 3?
A. Behaviour mechanisms work. B. Crayfish prefer the light sections.
C. The assumption proves reasonable. D. Animals are similar to human in mind.
10. What does the underlined word “disparaging” mean in paragraph 4?
A. Criticizing. B. Explaining.
C. Confirming. D. Acknowledging.
11. Which of the following can be the best title for the text?
A. Feelings: Guiding Human Being B. Boundaries: Making No Sense
C. Humanizing: Covering the Truth D. Animals: Mirroring Human Behaviours
【答案】8. B 9. A 10. A 11. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇议论文，主要讲的是作者赞赏展示动物和我们一样的愿望，但我们可以认识动物的本来面目，并对它们的能力感到惊讶，而不必把它们的行为模仿成人类的行为，一旦我们摆脱了动物必须像人类一样具有人类动机和情感的假设，我们就可以自由地考虑行为背后的机制。
【8题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段的“A recent paper describes bees rolling tiny wooden balls, not for a reward, but apparently just for fun. This discovery emphasizes a long-standing conflict in our view of animals.(最近的一篇论文描述了蜜蜂滚动小木球，不是为了奖励，而显然只是为了好玩。这一发现强调了我们对动物的看法中一个长期存在的冲突。)”可推知，第一段的目的是提出论点——我们对动物的看法中一个长期存在的冲突。故选B。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段的“Once we get out from the assumption that animals have to be like people with human motivations and feelings, we are freed up to consider the mechanisms (机理) behind the behaviours. For example, the same serotonin (血清素) influences anxiety in humans and maze (迷宫) exploration in crayfish. In a tank divided into well-lit and shadowy areas, crayfish explore both, but prefer the darker areas, consistent with their night lifestyle.(一旦我们摆脱了动物必须像人类一样具有人类动机和情感的假设，我们就可以自由地考虑行为背后的机制。例如，同样的血清素影响人类的焦虑和小龙虾的迷宫探索。在一个被分成光线充足和阴暗的区域的水箱里，小龙虾会在两个区域都探索，但更喜欢黑暗的区域，这与它们的夜间生活方式一致。)”可知，我们可以从第三段中了解到行为机制起作用。故选A。
【10题详解】
词句猜测题。根据最后一段的“In the bees’ case, they might be exhibiting some very interesting behaviour that has nothing to do with wanting to “have fun”—but we will never examine it if we simply assume they are playing just like people.(在蜜蜂的例子中，它们可能会表现出一些非常有趣的行为，这些行为与想要“玩得开心”无关——但如果我们简单地假设它们像人一样玩耍，我们就永远不会研究它。)”和“and I am not trying to be a killjoy, but there is something about all this humanizing that prevent exploration, instead of encouraging it(我并不想扫兴，但所有这些人性化的东西阻碍了探索，而不是鼓励探索)”可知，作者在此声明的是自己并不是在贬低蜜蜂研究人员的结论，也不是想要扫兴，因此划线词disparaging的意思是“贬低，诋毁”，和criticizing意思相近，故选A。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第二段的“As a biologist who studies animal behaviour, I am puzzled by this effort to rank animals by their capabilities. I applaud the desire to show that animals are like us, but we can recognize animals for what they are, and be amazed at their abilities, without having to make their behaviour mirror that of humans.(作为一名研究动物行为的生物学家，我对这种按能力给动物排序的做法感到困惑。我赞赏展示动物和我们一样的愿望，但我们可以认识动物的本来面目，并对它们的能力感到惊讶，而不必把它们的行为模仿成人类的行为。)”和第三段的“Once we get out from the assumption that animals have to be like people with human motivations and feelings, we are freed up to consider the mechanisms (机理) behind the behaviours.(一旦我们摆脱了动物必须像人类一样具有人类动机和情感的假设，我们就可以自由地考虑行为背后的机制。)”可知，本文主要讲的是作者赞赏展示动物和我们一样的愿望，但我们可以认识动物的本来面目，并对它们的能力感到惊讶，而不必把它们的行为模仿成人类的行为，一旦我们摆脱了动物必须像人类一样具有人类动机和情感的假设，我们就可以自由地考虑行为背后的机制，也就是说动物的人性化掩盖了关于它们的行为，因此最好的标题是C选项“Humanizing: Covering the Truth(人性化：掩盖真相)”，故选C。
D
A scanning system combined with artificial intelligence is automatically assessing cows’ health status twice a day on dozens of “smart” dairy farms across the UK.
Overhead three-dimensional cameras film the animals’ backs as they leave the milking bam, while sensors read their individual identity tags. The associated computers then use machine learning to process the data, providing farmers with critical daily information about each cow’s weight, body condition and mobility. “We can detect certain health conditions, including lameness (跛行) , just by scanning the cows walking past, without even having to see their hooves (蹄子),” says Wenhao Zhang at the University of the West of England (UWE) in Bristol, UK.
While farmers are well trained to recognise such issues as early as possible, they often miss subtle, day-to-day changes in individual cows. Because they are a prey (猎物) species, cows will also naturally hide signs of discomfort, such as lameness, when they think they are being watched, says Melvyn Smith, who designed the system with Mark Hansen, both at UWE.
In an initial study of 200 dairy cows on one farm, Smith, Hansen and their colleagues placed a computer and 3D cameras in a milking bam. They aimed the cameras over an arrow walkway that cows pass through when they are finished milking. A near tag reader,set at the cows, head level, sets off the cameras to record. “The beauty of this equipment is that it’s just passively sitting there, unobserved by the animal,” says Smith. “And every time they go past — so every time they’re milked, which is usually twice a day — it’s gathering data.”
Kate Dutton-Regester at the University of Queensland in Australia says the system is “a great innovation”. “The dairy industry needs an automated, non-intrusive (非侵入式) monitoring system that can aid dairy farmers in observing the health of their herd in a timely and efficient manner, and this technology meets those criteria,” she says.
12. What can we know about the scanning system?
A. It was designed by Wenhao Zhang.
B. It can monitor the health of the cows.
C. It can help cure the lameness of the cows.
D. It provides farms with farming information.
13. Why are well-trained farmers mentioned in paragraph 3?
A. To compare different scanning devices.
B. To demonstrate their high skills in farming.
C. To stress the advantage of the scanning system.
D To introduce the operation of the scanning system.
14. What is the highlight of the scanning system?
A. It includes a 3D camera. B. It can gather data.
C. It can’t be noticed by cows. D. It is beautifully designed.
15. What do Kate’s words imply?
A. The dairy industry needs improving.
B. Well-trained farmers will be replaced.
C. The scanning system has been widely used.
D. The scanning system benefits the dairy industry.
【答案】12. B 13. C 14. C 15. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是说明文。文章介绍了一种智能扫描系统，该系统能在奶牛注意到不到的情况下检测它们的健康状况。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“A scanning system combined with artificial intelligence is automatically assessing cows’ health status twice a day on dozens of “smart” dairy farms across the UK.(在英国数十个“智能”奶牛场，一个与人工智能相结合的扫描系统每天两次自动评估奶牛的健康状况)”可知，该扫描系统可以监测奶牛的健康状况。故选B。
【13题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段的““We can detect certain health conditions, including lameness (跛行) , just by scanning the cows walking past, without even having to see their hooves (蹄子),” says Wenhao Zhang at the University of the West of England (UWE) in Bristol, UK.(“我们可以通过扫描走过的奶牛来检测某些健康状况，包括跛行，甚至不需要看它们的蹄子。” 英国布里斯托尔西英格兰大学的Wenhao Zhang说)可知，该扫描仪能快速且准确地检测出奶牛的健康状况，而且不用看蹄子就能判断出跛行。根据第三段“While farmers are well trained to recognise such issues as early as possible, they often miss subtle, day-to-day changes in individual cows. Because they are a prey (猎物) species, cows will also naturally hide signs of discomfort, such as lameness, when they think they are being watched, says Melvyn Smith, who designed the system with Mark Hansen, both at UWE.(虽然农民受过良好的培训，可以尽早发现这些问题，但他们往往会忽略个别奶牛日常的细微变化。与马克·汉森共同设计该系统的梅尔文·史密斯说，因为奶牛是猎物，当它们认为自己被监视时，它们也会自然地隐藏不舒服的迹象，比如跛行)”可推知，本段提到受过良好训练的农民是为了强调扫描系统的优势。故选C。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段的““The beauty of this equipment is that it’s just passively sitting there, unobserved by the animal,” says Smith.(“这种设备的美妙之处在于，它只是被动地坐在那里，动物没有注意到，”Smith说)”可知，该扫描系统的亮点是不会被奶牛注意到。故选C。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段的““The dairy industry needs an automated, non-intrusive (非侵入式) monitoring system that can aid dairy farmers in observing the health of their herd in a timely and efficient manner, and this technology meets those criteria,” she says.(“乳制品行业需要一个自动化的、非侵入式的监测系统，它可以帮助奶农及时有效地观察牛群的健康状况，而这项技术符合这些标准，”她说)”可推知，Kate的话表明该扫描系统有利于乳品业。故选D。

【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道，主要讲的是游学的好处和所面临的问题。
【36题详解】
考查比较级。句意：去年有600多万人参加了游学活动，甚至高于2019年大流行前的480万人。由than可知，空格处用比较级higher，故填higher。
【37题详解】
考查定语从句。句意：游学可以追溯到宋明时期，当时许多诗人都写下了他们的游学经历。空格处引导的是非限制性定语从句，从句中不缺主语或宾语，先行词Song and Ming dynasties是时间，因此空格处用关系副词when，故填when。
【38题详解】
考查时态和主谓一致。句意：中国在改革开放期间形成了一个游学产业，在过去的几十年里得到了快速发展。由in the past decades可知，句子时态用现在完成时，which指代的先行词“industry for study travel”是单数，因此空格处是has seen。故填has seen。
【39题详解】
考查冠词。句意：教育旅游的发展促进了学生的社会教育，对文化与旅游的融合也起到了重要的作用。play an important role in是固定短语，意为“在……中起重要作用”，故填an。
【40题详解】
考查副词。句意：然而，我国的教育旅游仍然面临着与国家课程衔接不强、旅游实践机会较少等问题。根据“the nation’s education tourism still faces problems”可知，前后句子是转折关系，用表示转折的副词however/nevertheless，位于句首，首字母大写，故填However/Nevertheless。
【41题详解】
考查名词的复数。句意：然而，我国的教育旅游仍然面临着与国家课程衔接不强、旅游实践机会较少等问题。fewer后跟名词的复数，因此空格处是复数opportunities。故填opportunities。
【42题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：许多从事教育旅游的人都曾经在旅行社工作过，有些人只是把它当作一门生意。句中谓语是are，空格处用非谓语动词，people和involve之间是逻辑动宾关系，因此空格处用过去分词表被动，作后置定语，故填involved。
【43题详解】
考查介词。句意：许多从事教育旅游的人都曾经在旅行社工作过，有些人只是把它当作一门生意。根据语境可知，句子表示“许多从事教育旅游的人都曾经在旅行社工作过，有些人只是把它当作一门生意”，空格处意为“作为”，是as，故填as。

47. 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。
Sledding Alone
“Come on, Simon,” said Gabe. “Let’s try out our new sleds (雪橇)! The snow is perfect.”
“I’m not ready,” Simon said. He watched his older brother throw on his jacket and head for the door.
“What’s to get ready?” Gabe asked.
Simon wanted to say “I need to learn how to control the sled” or “What if the other kids laugh if I mess up?”. But he said nothing.
“You’re going to miss a lot of fun,” Gabe said.
“Go with your brother, Simon,” said Mom. “He’ll show you how to do it.”
Simon took as much time as he could pulling on his snow pants and boots, zipping up his jacket, and finding his helmet and gloves. His brother paced the front hall. “Let’s go!”
The brothers walked to the park, the sleds knocking against their snow pants. Swish, swish, swish. The wind circled like a lasso (套索) around them.
Simon could see the sledding hill ahead of them. To him, it looked more like a sledding mountain. It was so high that the park district had built wooden steps into the hillside to help sledders climb back up. Kids were taking turns on sleds, screaming all the way down. Simon couldn’t tell if their cries meant they were happy or terrified. He knew which one he felt.
Gabe was taking the steps two at a time. “Come on!” he called to Simon.
Simon started up. He was both sweating and freezing, short of breath. Should he turn back? But the line of kids on the steps behind him meant he had to keep climbing.
At the top, the boys joined a group of kids waiting their turn. Simon stamped his feet to stay warm. Was he the only one who had butterflies in stomach?
His brother stopped and looked at Simon. “Do you want me to go down with you?” he asked When they were younger，they used to ride on one sled down the gentle slope (斜坡) in their backyard.
“Are you two going or not?” a girl behind him said impatiently.
注意：
1. 续写词数应为150左右；

Simon took a deep breath. “I’m going. By myself.”

______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】Possible Version:
Simon took a deep breath. “I’m going. By myself.” He climbed into the sled and grasped the handles, his heart pounding. Gabe gave him a small push on his back. Suddenly, he was dashing down the hill. The wind howled. The cold bit. He was struggling to keep balance when the sled swung around and sent him racing down backward. Backward! He couldn’t stop. Faster and faster he went. He couldn’t even scream. Was he going to crash? Why had he thought this was a good idea?
Thankfully the sled approached the flat ground. Simon’s sled slowed down. Before he knew it, the sled jumped to a stop at the man-made hill of snow. He rolled out and lay on his back, breathing hard, but in great relief. “Are you all right?” shouted Gabe, throwing his sled and running towards him. Seeing his older brother’s face calmed Simon. He sat up slowly and looked around. “Simon, say something! Say something!” Gabe said. Simon grinned, “Again?”
【解析】
【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了Gabe和Simon是两兄弟，Gabe叫Simon跟他一起去玩雪橇，Simon有点犹豫，因为他不太会，但是妈妈叫Simon跟Gabe一起去，兄弟俩向公园走去，公园区在山坡上建了木台阶，帮助雪橇运动员爬到山上去，孩子们轮流坐雪橇，一路尖叫着下山，Simon有点害怕，在犹豫要不要和哥哥同坐一个雪橇下去，身后排队的一个女生不耐烦地问他们要不要下去。
【详解】1.段落续写：
①由第一段首句内容“西蒙深吸了一口气。“我走了。由我自己。””可知，第一段可描写Simon自己一个人坐雪橇下山坡的过程和感受。
②由第二段首句内容“谢天谢地，雪橇驶近了平地。”可知，第二段可描写雪橇停下后Simon的反应。
2.续写线索：爬山雪橇，抓住把手——冲下山——努力保持平衡——减速——停下——躺下——坐起来——想再来一次
3.词汇激活
行为类
①抓住：grasp/seize
②冲下：dash down/rush down
③停下：jump to a stop/come to a stop
情绪类
①如释重负：in great relief/feel a sense of relief
②笑：grin/smile
【点睛】[高分句型1] Why had he thought this was a good idea? (由that引导的宾语从句，省略了that)
[高分句型2] Before he knew it, the sled jumped to a stop at the man-made hill of snow. (由before引导的时间状语从句)
