It's the 1970s and my dad is there, too, hugging her from behind.I haven't seen this photo for years. I have no idea where it is now, but I still think of it-and, specifically, my mom is in it. She looks so young and innocent. At that time she hasn't yet dropped out of college, or got married. The young woman in this photo has no idea that life will bring her five children and five grandchildren, one divorce, two marriages and a move across the country.For me, as for many daughters, the time before my mother became a mother is a string of stories, told and retold: the time she sold her childhood Barbie doll to buy a ticket to Woodstock; the time she worked as a waitress at Howard Johnson's, struggling to pay her way through her first year at Rutgers. The old photos of her are even more appealing than the stories because they're a historical record，carrying the weight of fact.It is always a comfort from those photos to know that time, aging and motherhood cannot take away a woman's essential identity. For daughters who closely resemble their moms, it must be an even bigger comfort: these mothers and daughters are twins, separated by a generation，and an old photo serves as a kind of mirror.For daughters, these old photos of our mothers feel like both a chasm(巨大差异)and a bridge. The woman in the picture is someone other than the woman we know. She is also exactly the person in the photo-still，right now. Finally, we see that the woman we've come to think of as Mom-whether she's nurturing(养育), or disapproving, or thoughtful, or supportive, or sentimental-is also a mysterious, fun, brave babe.She's been here all this time.24. What can we know about the author's mother from paragraphs 2&3?A. She divorced twice all her life.B. Life was tough for her during her first year at college.C. She traveled across the country in her youth.D. She was good at storytelling.25. Why does the author find the photo of her mother appealing?A. The photo reminds her of her mother.B. Her mother looks young and happy in the photo.C. She wonders why her mother dropped out of college.D. The photo tells a lot about her mother in her youth.26. Some photos of mothers bring comfort to their daughters becauseA. the photos are kept well even after generationsB. the photos record the life of the mothers faithfullyC. the photos help daughters to learn more about their mothersD. the photos show the essential part of the mothers remains unchanged27. Which one could be the best title of the passage?A. The Pictures of Our Mothers.           B. Our Mothers as We Never Saw Them.C. My Favorite Picture of My Mother.      D. The Way to Learn About Our Mothers.CHaving an older brother comes with plenty of benefits. Big brothers tend to look out for their younger siblings(兄弟姐妹), and despite the occasional rocky moment here and there, many siblings enjoy life-long close relationships. However, a new study finds an interesting downside: children with older brothers take longer when it comes to developing language skills.The study, conducted by a group of researchers in Paris, France, builds upon earlier research that had already established that having older siblings is associated with poor linguistic(语言的)development. Now, researchers say they have come to a more specific conclusion: only children with an older brother exhibit these linguistic difficulties.One would assume that children with older brothers would grow up around more conversation on a daily basis. thus speeding up their language development. Yet researchers say such children actually take longer than their older brothers to begin developing these skills.Researchers studied more than 1,000 children from birth to the age of five-and-a-half years old. Each child's language skills were tested at ages 2, 3, and 5.5, using tests specially designed to measure numerous aspects of language development such as vocabulary, syntax, and verbal reasoning.What the research team discovered was significant: children with an older brother had, on average, a two-month delay in their language development compared to those with an older sister.As far as explaining this phenomenon，researchers have proposed two hypotheses(假设). The first is that older sisters tend to talk more often than older brothers, which would compensate for parents potentially being less present than they were for their first child. The second hypothesis is that older sisters usually compete with their siblings less than older brothers for their parents' attention.As of now, the study's authors say they can't say for certain why children with older brothers have a harder time developing language skills. In the future they would like to investigate if culture or location affects the results of these studies.28. What does the underlined word "downside" in paragraph 1 mean?A. difficulty       B. drawback       C. mistake      D. burden29. What does the previous research suggest about older siblings?A. Having older siblings will affect the younger ones' language development.B. Many children prefer having brothers and sisters.C. Older brothers may have something to do with the linguistic difficulties.D. Children with older siblings would grow up around more conversation.30. Why do children with older brothers experience the delay in language development?A. Parents tend to focus more on the first child.B. Older sisters are more caring than older brothers.C. Older brothers always seek to get more attention from their parents.D. Younger children are always ignored by their older brothers.31. What will further research of the study focus on?A. The reasons for children's delay in language development.B. Other aspects that may influence the outcomes of the study.C. More assumptions to explain the phenomenon.D. The effect of culture on children's language learning.DFor those not familiar, "hygge" refers to the Danish lifestyle that's popular across the world and is described as a feeling of comfort and contentment, as well as indulging(沉迷)in all the good things and people in your life.Hygge has focused largely on the idea of making the ordinary special, or meaningful, through ritualising(使仪式化)everyday activities such as making a cup of coffee or having dinner; that means putting technology to one side, and adopting simple practices such as lighting candles, purchasing flowers, or making real tea in china cups.Of course, Denmark's use of "hygge" is particularly useful in battling with the country's harsh winters; with up to 17 hours of darkness a day potentially having deeply negative effects on the mental health of its citizens. Susanne Nilsson, a Danish lecturer at London's Morley College, explained to the BBC, "We have long, cold winters in Denmark. That influences things. Hygge doesn't have to be a winter-only thing, but the weather isn't that good for much of the year.""Hygge could be families and friends getting together for a meal, with the lighting dimmed(变昏暗), or it could be time spent on your own reading a good book," she added. "It works best when there's not too large an empty space around the person or people."The word hygge didn't actually originate from the Danish language, but from Norwegian, where the word originally meant something similar to "well-being". However, it spread to Denmark in the 18th century and has since become an essential part of the country's culture and self-identity.Hygge's international export has seen an explosion of themed cookbooks and lifestyle guides, alongside Scandinavian-themed restaurants, cafes and bars in the UK with quiet and pleasant settings, simple décor, and plenty of comfort food.32. Which of the following things might a person going for "hygge" do?A. Doing extreme sports.B. Playing exciting computer games.C. Having a wonderful meal in a fancy restaurant.D. Reading a favourite book over a cup of coffee.33. What is the purpose of paragraph 3?A. To show it's pretty cold in the winter of Denmark.B. To explain why "hygge" is especially useful for the Danes.C. To prove "hygge" is popular in Denmark.D. To introduce the origin of "hygge".34. What can we know about "hygge" from the text?A. Hygge involves complex customs.B. Hygge has its root in Denmark.C. Hygge can promote people's sense of happiness.D. Hygge will enjoy great popularity around the world.35. What is a hygge-themed restaurant like?A. It is quiet and cozy.         B. Its dining area is well-lit.C. It offers quite tasty food.     D. It has a lot of empty space.第二节(共5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。Have you ever wondered that the food you eat everyday can tell you about where you come from? Have you ever wondered why people from different parts of the world eat different types of food?   36   There is more of a connection between food and culture than you may think.   37   It becomes a part of who we are. Many associate food from our childhood with warm feelings and good memories and it ties us to our families, holding a special and personal value for us. Food from our family often becomes the comfort we seek as adults in times of frustration and stress.On a large scale, traditional food is an important part of culture.   38   Immigrants bring it wherever they go, and it is a symbol of pride for their culture and means of coping with homesickness.Many immigrants open their own restaurants and serve traditional dishes. However, the food does not remain exactly the same. Some materials needed to make traditional dishes may not be readily available, so the taste and flavor can be different from what they would prepare in their home countries. Additionally, immigrants do not only sell dishes to people from the same countries as them, but to people from different countries.   39   Those changes can create new flavors that still keep the cultural significance of the dishes.We should embrace our heritage(传统)through our culture's food but also become more informed about other cultures by trying their food. It is important to remember that each dish has a special place in the culture to which it belongs, and is special to those who prepare it.   40   A. Food is a window into culture, and it should be treated as such.B. On an individual level，we grow up eating the food of our culture.C. The smell and taste of the food is very familiar to me.D. It also operates as an expression of culture identity.E. Therefore, they have to make small changes about the original dishes to cater to a wider range of customers.F. Do you ever ask yourself why certain foods or cooking traditions are so important to your culture?G. As the world becomes more globalized, it is easier to access foods from different cultures.第三部分 英语知识运用(共两节，满分45分)第一节(共20小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分)阅读下面短文，从短文后各题的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。The Most Valuable SkillMy grandmother, who had Alzheimer disease, got worse two years ago.
