M: Mmm.
W: And then medium term memory, the example they give is something like trying to remember that you’ve got to buy bread.
M: Like a sort of a shopping list of things to do.

M: Sounds familiar

W: Well, she has the motivation. An experience like that will put her at the top of the job ladder.

A
Three years ago, Brian Palmer was a homeless man struggling to overcome drug addiction. All he owned was a bag containing some clothes, a blanket, and a pillow. He sought assistance at a recovery center at the heart of Skid Row. One activity that helped him through the tough time was singing. As a kid, he dreamed of becoming a professional singer; he was a member of the church choir and appeared in musicals at school. In 2015, he encountered the Urban Voices Project. This led him to Street Symphony, a group of professional musicians, which works with homeless, mentally ill, and incarcerated (监禁的) populations.
In February, Palmer began taking voice lessons from Scott Graff, a member of Street Symphony. Graff said, “I gave Brian some tips on singing technique, and he taught me life lessons. I got the better end of the deal. ”
A few days after Thanksgiving, Palmer sang “The People That Walked in Darkness” in a musical workshop. Five string players accompanied him; a few dozen members of the workshop were in attendance. Before performing, Palmer shared with the audience some thoughts about the music. “When I came here three years ago, I didn’t know where my life was going to take me,” he said. “I just knew that I needed to change, and that I needed help. When I was walking through my life in addiction, and the darkness and the hell I had created for myself, it was like the phoenix (凤凰) coming out of the darkness and seeing the light. ”
Palmer then sang the song. After his performance, Graff commented, “Palmer performed well for one who has been studying singing technique for less than a year. More importantly, he made the text sound as though it had been taken from his own life. ”
“That was really empowering,” Palmer told the audience afterward. He explained what had been going through his mind as he sang. “An act of love,” he said, looking out at familiar faces in front of him. “One act of love, I know for sure, is listening.”
21. What does the underlined sentence in paragraph 2 indicate?
A. Graff spoke highly of Brian’s talent for music.
B. Graff was grateful to Brian for the life lessons.
C. Graff took pride in teaching Brian voice lessons.
D. Graff thought his deal with Brian not worthwhile.
22. Why could Brian perform well in the musical workshop?
A. He cooperated quite well with string players.
B. He acquired proper techniques to sing the song.
C. He gained support from members of the workshop.
D. He well conveyed what the text of the song meant.
23. What might be the best title for the text?
A. Urban Voices Project B. Brian Palmer: A Professional Singer
C. The Chains of Love D. The People That Walked in Darkness
【答案】21. B 22. D 23. D
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇记叙文。主要通过Brian Palmer为了戒毒，寻求帮助，并通过唱歌度过了难关的故事，并使我们知道，爱的一种表现就是倾听。
【21题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段中Graff所说的话“I gave Brian some tips on singing technique, and he taught me life lessons. I got the better end of the deal.(我教Brian歌唱的技巧，而Brian教我人生的经验。在这场交易中，我得到了更好的结果)”可知，Graff认为自己从Brian那里学到了许多人生的经验，所以应该是感激他的。故选B。
【22题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段“More importantly, he made the text sound as though it had been taken from his own life.(更重要的是，他把这些文字唱得好像是从他自己的生活中提炼出来的)”可知，Brian在唱这首歌时联想到了自己的人生经历，唱出了歌曲所要传达的情感。故选D。
23题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段第一句“Three years ago, Brian Palmer was a homeless man struggling to overcome drug addiction.(三年前，Brian Palmer只是一个正在戒毒的无家可归的人)”以及下文中的描述可知，本文主要讲述了Brian为了戒毒，寻求帮助，并通过唱歌度过了难关。而且本文重点介绍了他演唱的一首歌“The People That Walked in Darkness”可知，这首歌就像是他本人的人生写照，故以这首歌的歌名为标题比较合适。故选D。
B
Singapore uses about 430 million gallons of water every day — a number it expects could double in the next four decades. That kind of consumption is piling pressure on the Asian city state to address growing concerns about global water shortage. So it’s building new technology to prepare itself for a future where obtaining clean water will be even more difficult.
Rapid urbanization and rising global temperatures are making access to natural water sources increasingly hard to come by. Today, a quarter of the world lives in areas of high water stress. Singapore is home to more than five million people and is covered in fountains, landscape pools and other water features (水景设计). But it has no natural water sources of its own, instead relying heavily on recycled water and imports from its neighbors.
Snyder’s research facility is one of several places developing solutions for Singapore’s water dependency. The hope is to create projects that could be used across the city. One development: a small, black sponge (海绵) called carbon fiber aerogel can clean waste water on a mass scale. The material is being further developed for commercial use by Singapore-based startup EcoWorth Technology. According to CEO Andre Stoltz, the company will first enter Singapore’s waste water market before eventually developing this material for use on a global scale.
Another company, WateRoam, is already taking innovation from Singapore to the rest of the region. Founded in 2014, WateRoam says it has developed a lightweight, portable filtration (过滤) device that they say has already provided clean drinking water to more than 75,000 people across Southeast Asia.
The water filtration device is no bigger than a bicycle pump, yet it can provide clean water to villages of 100 people for up to two years, according to the company.
“We’ve been very blessed to have access to clean drinking water,” Pong said. “It’s a privilege that we should be able to bring forth to the rest of the region, and advocate that clean water is an essential aspect for life on earth.”
24. What do we know about Singapore according to the text?
A. It consumes much more water than any other country in the world.
B. Its demand for water also results from facilities using a lot of water.
C. Its water shortage is partly due to the absence of recycled water.
D. It imports most of the water resources from neighboring countries.
25. What has been done to address water shortage in Singapore?
A. Snyder’s research facility has developed a sponge for commercial use.
B. The material carbon fiber aerogel has been used throughout Singapore.
C. The device produced by WateRoam has been available in Southeast Asia.
D. The water filtration device invented in 2014 has provided water ever since.
26. From which column of the newspaper is this text taken?
A. Technology. B. Culture.
C. Business. D. Lifestyle.
【答案】24. B 25. C 26. A
【解析】
【分析】本文是一则新闻报道。这则新闻主要讲述的是新加坡研发新技术解决水资源短缺问题，属于“技术”栏目。
【24题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“Singapore is home to more than five million people an discovered in fountains, landscape pools and other water features.（新加坡有五百万多人口，到处覆盖着喷泉、景观池和其他水景设计）”可知，新加坡对水的需求也来自于使用大量水的设施。故选B。
【25题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段内容“Founded in 2014, WateRoam says it has developed a lightweight, portable filtration (过滤) device that they say has already provided clean drinking water to more than 75,000 people across Southeast Asia. （成立于2014年的WateRoam公司表示，他们已经开发出一种轻便的便携式过滤设备，已经为东南亚地区7.5万多人提供了干净的饮用水）”可知，WateRoam生产的设备已在东南亚开发。故选C。

Children’s heavy digital media use is associated with a risk of being overweight later in adolescence. A recent study shows that six hours of leisure-time physical activity per week at the age of 11 reduces the risk of being overweight at 14 years of age associated with heavy use of digital media.
Obesity (肥胖) in children and adolescents is one of the most significant health-related challenges globally. A study carried out by the Folkhalsan Research Center investigated whether a link exists between the digital media use of Finnish school-age children and the risk of being overweight later in adolescence. In addition, the study looked into whether children’s physical activity has an effect on this potential link.
The study involved 4,661 children who reported how much time they spent on sedentary (久坐的) digital media use and physical activity outside school hours. The study indicated that heavy use of digital media at 11 years of age was associated with a heightened risk of being overweight at 14 years of age in children who reported taking part in under six hours per week of physical activity in their leisure time. In children who reported being physically active for six or more hours per week, such a link was not observed.
The study also took into account other factors potentially impacting obesity, such as childhood eating habits and the amount of sleep, as well as the amount of digital media use and physical activity in adolescence. In spite of the confounding (混杂的) factors, the protective role of childhood physical activity in the connection between digital media use in childhood and being overweight later in life was successfully confirmed.
“The effect of physical activity on the association between digital media use and being overweight has not been further investigated in follow-up studies so far,” says Postdoctoral Researcher Elina Engberg. “In this study, the amount of physical activity and use of digital media was reported by the children themselves, and the level of their activity was not surveyed, so there is a need for further studies.”
27. The subjects of the study were ________.
A. surveyed three years later after the first one
B. those who kept sitting and used digital media a lot
C. 4,661 school-aged children suffering from obesity
D. lacking in sufficient leisure-time physical activity
28. What does the underlined word “heightened” in paragraph 3 probably mean?
A. Major B. Particular.
C. Increasing. D. Slight.
29. What was the focus of the recent study?
A Different factors contributing to kids’ overweight problem.
B. The influence of childhood eating habits on children’s obesity.
C. The relationship among kids’ exercise, digital media use and obesity.
D. Children’s academic challenges resulting from heavy digital media use.
30. What might be talked about in the following paragraph?
A. Reasons for carrying out further studies.
B. Guidelines for children and adolescents.
C. Approaches to solving teens’ weight problems.
D. Connections between obesity and physical activity.
【答案】27. A 28. C 29. C 30. B
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇说明文。主要讲述了儿童沉溺数字媒体和青春期肥胖有很大的关系。
【27题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第一段“A recent study shows that six hours of leisure-time physical activity per week at the age of 11 reduces the risk of being overweight at 14 years of age associated with heavy use of digital media.”（最近的一项研究表明，11岁时每周进行6小时的休闲体育活动，可以降低14岁时因过度使用数字媒体而超重的风险），可知这项研究第一次是在实验主体11岁的时候；第二次研究是14岁的时候，所以是在第一次研究的三年后实施的。故选A项。
【28题详解】
词句猜测题。根据文章第一段“A recent study shows that six hours of leisure-time physical activity per week at the age of 11 reduces the risk of being overweight at 14 years of age associated with heavy use of digital media.”（最近的一项研究表明，11岁时每周进行6小时的休闲体育活动，可以降低14岁时因过度使用数字媒体而超重的风险），可知沉溺在数字媒体中而不运动会大大增加在14岁时超重的风险。“heightened”所在句中有“heavy use of digital media”（长时间使用数字媒体），可推断出在11岁时大量使用数字媒体会增加青春期肥胖的风险，所以heightened表示的意思和increasing最为接近。故选C项。
【29题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章最后一段“In this study, the amount of physical activity and use of digital media was reported by the children themselves, and the level of their activity was not surveyed, so there is a need for further studies.”（ “在这项研究中，孩子们自己报告了身体活动量和使用数字媒体的情况，并没有调查他们的活动量，所以有必要进行进一步的研究。” ），可知最近的研究关注于过度肥胖和运动以及数字媒体的使用之间的关系。故选C项。
【30题详解】
推理判断题。本文主要讲述了儿童沉溺数字媒体以及缺乏运动和过度肥胖之间的关系。由此推知，在说明了利害关系后，作者接下来应该会告诫孩子们要注意运动，少接触网络媒体，即给儿童以及青少年一些建议。故选B项。
【点睛】词义猜测类题目的解题技巧：1. 利用同义词、近义词、反义词猜测词义；2. 利用定义或解释猜测词义；3. 利用举例说明猜测词义；4. 利用上下文猜测词义；5. 利用逻辑关系猜测词义；6. 利用构词法猜测词义。本篇第3题就是利用上下文猜测词义。第一段“A recent study shows that six hours of leisure-time physical activity per week at the age of 11 reduces the risk of being overweight at 14 years of age associated with heavy use of digital media.”，讲述了过度沉溺在数字媒体中，可能会导致青春期的肥胖。第三段“The study indicated that heavy use of digital media at 11 years of age was associated with a heightened risk of being overweight at 14 years of age in children who reported taking part in under six hours per week of physical activity in their leisure time.”中的“heavy use of digital media at 11 years of age”表示过度沉溺数字媒体，可知其导致的结果就是肥胖风险的增加。故该题heightened的意思和increasing最为接近。故选C项。
第二节：（共5个小题；每小题2分，满分10分）
根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
New parents often spend a long time debating what to call their newborn. Should they name them after a relative, a famous person or just pick a name at random? ___31___ But it’s our children who need to live with our choice. So how important is the name we choose?
Names usually stay with us for a lifetime unless we decide to change them. ___32___ Quite often we hear stories of celebrities giving their children unusual names, while other people give their children names which have special meanings, for example, the name Sarah comes from a Hebrew word meaning ‘princess’. Sadly, though, our parents don’t always get it right.
___33___ A study led by psychologist Jean Twenge found that a person who hates the name given to them is more likely to have greater psychological adjustment issues – possibly due to low self-esteem (自尊). This is because our title becomes a symbol of our self, and if we hate our name, our confidence may be affected.
And what if your name is no longer popular? While names like Ethel and Gladys were once in fashion, they now sound a bit out of date, which can be embarrassing. ___34___ Studies have shown that people with old-fashioned names are more likely to be rejected on dating apps.
However, if you choose an unusual name, it’s not all bad news. According to a study conducted by Professor David Zhu, people with uncommon names can develop a sense of uniqueness and can often become more creative and open-minded.
So when choosing your children’s name, there are a fair few things to consider. ___35___
A. They become part of our identity.
B. So, what if you don’t like your given name?
C. For many of us it can be a difficult and tiring task.
D. Have you experienced something unpleasant due to your names?
E. And when it comes to unpopular names, they may even affect our love lives.
F. Many children say they dislike the name their parents have chosen for them.
G. But going for something too common or too old-fashioned may not be a great choice.
【答案】31. C 32. A 33. B 34. E 35. G
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了人们的名字如果太普通或者太过时会对人们产生一些负面影响，因此父母在给孩子选名字时，要考虑一些因素，既不能太普通，也不能太过时。
【详解】1.根据上文“New parents often spend a long time debating what to call their newborn. Should they name them after a relative, a famous person or just pick a name at random?”(新生儿父母经常花很长时间，讨论怎么称呼他们的新生儿。他们应该用亲戚或者名人的名字，还是随便取个名字？)可知，给新生儿取名字并不是很容易的事，且结合后文“But it’s our children who need to live with our choice. So how important is the name we choose?”(但我们的孩子需要用我们给他们选择的名字生活，所以我们选择的名字非常重要！)可知，空处和下句是转折关系，C选项“For many of us it can be a difficult and tiring task.”(对我们许多人来说，这可能是一项困难和累人的任务。)符合，承接上文，对上文进行总结，且与下文构成转折关系，故选C。
2.根据上文“Names usually stay with us for a lifetime unless we decide to change them.”(名字通常会伴随我们一生，除非我们决定改变它们。)可知，句子表达的是名字很重要，A项“They become part of our identity.”(它们成为我们身份的一部分。)符合，其中they代指上文中的names(名字)，承接上文，说明名字的重要性，故选A。
3.根据上一段最后一句话“Sadly, though, our parents don’t always get it right.”(令人伤心的是，我们的父母并不总是都起对名字。)可知，有些家长没有给孩子取对名字，且结合下文“A study led by psychologist Jean Twenge found that a person who hates the name given to them is more likely to have greater psychological adjustment issues – possibly due to low self-esteem (自尊). This is because our title becomes a symbol of our self, and if we hate our name, our confidence may be affected.”(心理学家Jean Twenge主导的一项研究发现，如果一个不喜欢别人给自己取的名字，那么这个人更有可能有更大的心理适应问题，这可能是由于他们缺乏自尊导致的。这是因为我们的头衔成为了我们自己的象征，如果我们讨厌自己的名字，我们的自信就会受到影响。)可知，本段主要阐述不喜欢自己的名字会对人们产生负面影响，B选项“So, what if you don’t like your given name?”(那么，如果你不喜欢自己的名字会怎么样呢？)承上启下，既承接上文，同时作为本段的总起句，引起下文，而且B选项与下一段开头结构相同，故选B。
4.根据上文“And what if your name is no longer popular? While names like Ethel and Gladys were once in fashion, they now sound a bit out of date, which can be embarrassing.”(如果名字不再流行了会怎样？虽然像Ethel和Gladys这样的名字曾经很流行，但现在听起来有点过时了，这有点尴尬。)可知，名字如果过时，会影响人们，结合下文“Studies have shown that people with old-fashioned names are more likely to be rejected on dating apps.”(研究表明，名字过时的人更有可能在约会应用程序上被拒绝。)，说明空处应该讲述名字会对恋爱有影响这一话题，E选项“And when it comes to unpopular names, they may even affect our love lives.”(当涉及到不受欢迎的名字时，它们甚至会影响我们的爱情生活。)符合，承上启下，故选E。
5.根据上文“So, when choosing your children’s name, there are a fair few things to consider.”(所以，在给孩子取名字的时候，有很多事情要考虑。)可知，最后一段是对文章的总结，即选名字要考虑一些事情，G选项“But going for something too common or too old-fashioned may not be a great choice.”(但是选择太普通或太过时的名字可能不是一个好的选择。)承接上文，具体指出选名字要考虑的事情是，不能太普通，也不能太过时，分别对应文章第三段和第四段。故选G。

67. 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。
Every Christmas, people in shopping malls, grocery stores and on street corners collect donations for the Salvation Army’s programs for those in need. And bell-ringers are volunteers helping collect donations. That probably doesn’t seem like a big deal to most people, but I find it difficult - in fact, ridiculously hard - to ask people for anything, even though I quite enjoy helping others when they need a hand.
My friends will tell you I’m outgoing, independent, even adventurous. Yet, when I’m sick I’d rather stagger out of the door half-dead to buy some chicken soup than ask a friend or neighbor for help. When I sign up for a run to raise money for cancer, I donate the cash myself rather than asking others. The thought of asking a friend for a ride to the airport is way too stressful, even though I know the answer would be yes.
So I decided one Christmas I would take a baby step in learning to ask. I’d do a few shifts (轮班) as a “bell-ringer” to see how it felt to ask perfect strangers to give.
I arrived early and tried to calm my nerves as I approached the man standing by the donation box. For weeks, I had prepared myself for this. I put the instruction sheet on my refrigerator and re-read it many times. But I could not have felt worse as I slipped on the Salvation Army vest (背心) and took my spot beside the donation box.
The man who had been a volunteer for a decade gave me some tips before he left. I thanked him and consciously tried to follow the tips. Stand (don’t sit), smile, make eye contact, and don’t ring the bell too loud or too often.
It felt awkward at first. My location on the second floor of shopping mall wasn’t a busy spot, so I tried to smile and catch the eyes of every passerby. Most quickly glanced away. I worried I was making them feel guilty. I didn’t like that at all.
注意：1. 所续写短文的词数应为150左右；
2. 应使用5个以上短文中标有下划线的关键词语；
3. 续写部分分为两段，每段的开头语已为你写好；

Para 1:
I was starting to wonder whether this bell-ringing thing was for me when a lady walked purposefully toward me.

Para 2:
For the rest of my shift, I became relaxed and were impressed by different people coming to me.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】One possible version
Para 1: I was starting to wonder whether this bell-ringing thing was for me when a lady walked purposefully toward me. I stood stiff, looked her in the eyes, smiled and gently rang my bell. “Merry Christmas!” I greeted her with an awkward smile. I tried to calm my nerves, but obviously there was a touch of nervousness in my manner. The lady seemed to sense my feelings and returned my smile with a tremendous one of her own. “Well, this won't do. We can’t have this sitting empty,” she said as she slipped a twenty-dollar bill into the donation box. I thanked her for the donation, and I could feel a ripple of excitement ran through my body.
Para 2: For the rest of my shift, I became relaxed and were impressed by different people coming to me. One woman shared how her brother had been helped with addiction, others told how they look forward to helping the Christmas donation campaign each year. Quite a few parents gave their small children coins to drop in. There was a lesson for me in this little venture into uncomfortable territory. It has given me a great appreciation for the good feeling that comes with giving, not just for me but for everyone. So it follows that asking for help is not such a bad thing. It is just another side of living in a caring community.
【解析】

①由第一段首句内容“我正在想摇铃募捐这样的事情是否适合我，这时有位女士向我走来。”可知，第一段可描写作者如何在紧张中开始跟这位女士打招呼，以及这位女士的善意的行为。
②由第二段首句内容“在我接下来的班里，我变得很放松，不同的人来找我，让我印象深刻。”可知，第二段可描写让作者印象深刻的几个捐赠者以及作者的感悟。
