Each year, the women of Olney and Liberal compete in an unusual footrace. Dressed in aprons (围裙) and headscarves, they wait at both towns’ starting lines. Each woman holds a frying pan with one pancake inside. At the signal, the women flip (轻抛) pancakes and they’re off!
This “pancake racing” tradition is said to have started on Shrove Tuesday, 1445, in Olney. Shrove Tuesday is the day before the Christian season of Lent (大斋戒) begins. During Lent, many people decide to give up sugary or fatty foods.
Legend says that in 1445, an Olney woman was making pancakes to use up some of her sugar and cooking fats before Lent. She lost track of time and suddenly heard the church bells ring, signaling the beginning of the Shrove Tuesday service. Realizing that she was going to be late for church, she raced out the door still wearing her apron and headscarf and holding her frying pan with a pancake in it. In the following years, the woman’s neighbors imitated her dash to church, and pancake racing was born.
The rules are simple. Racers must wear the traditional headscarf and apron. They must flip their pancakes twice - once before starting and once after crossing the finish line. After the race, there are Shrove Tuesday church services. Then Liberal and Olney connect through a video call to compare race times and declare a winner.
In both towns, the races have grown into larger festivals. Olney’s festival is an all-day event starting with a big pancake breakfast. Liberal’s festival lasts four days and includes a parade, a talent show, and contests that feature eating and flipping pancakes. Although the women’s race is still the main event, both towns now hold additional races for boys and girls of all ages.

Think of Japan in the spring and the image that comes to mind is likely the country’s famous cherry blossoms, also known as “Sakura” — white and pink flowers, blooming across cities and mountains.
The flowers, which experience a “peak bloom” that only lasts a few days, have been loved in Japan for more than a thousand years. Crowds celebrate with viewing parties, flocking to the most popular locations to take photos and have picnics underneath the branches.
But this year, cherry blossom season has come and gone in the blink of an eye, in one of the earliest blooms on record. Scientists warn it’s a symptom of the larger climate crisis threatening ecosystems everywhere.
Yasuyuki Aono, a researcher at Osaka Prefecture University, has gathered records from Kyoto back to 812 AD from historical documents and diaries. In the central city of Kyoto, cherry blossoms peaked on March 26, the earliest in more than 1,200 years, Aono said. And in the capital Tokyo, cherry blossoms reached full bloom on March 22, the second-earliest date on record.
The peak bloom dates shift every year, depending on numerous factors including weather and rainfall, but have shown a general trend of moving earlier and earlier. In Kyoto, the peak date stayed around mid-April for centuries, but began moving into early April during the 1800s. The date has only dipped into late March a handful of times in recorded history.
“Sakura blooms are very temperature sensitive,” said Aono. “Flowering and full bloom could be earlier or later depending on the temperature alone,” he said. “The temperature was low in the 1820s, but it has risen by about 3.5 degrees Celsius to this day.”
This year’s seasons in particular influenced the blossom dates, he added. The winter was very cold, but the spring came fast and unusually warm.
8. What is the best title of the passage?
A. Cherry blossom celebrations.
B. Warning of a climate crisis.
C. A strong love for cherry blossom.
D. Cherry blossom season coming earlier.
9. What does the underlined word “flocking” mean?
A. Blocking. B. Flooding. C. Running. D. Following.
10. What can we infer from paragraph 5?
A. The peak blossom dates fall on a fixed date.
B. The cherry blossom rarely peaks in March.
C. The peak bloom dates mainly depend on weather and rainfall.
D. Cherry blossom peaks around mid-April in Tokyo.
11 What is the author’s purpose in writing the passage?
A. To inform people the date of cherry blossom.
B. To show a study on cherry blossom dates.
C. To present a Japanese tradition of cherry blossom celebration.
D. To make people aware of the influence of climate change on cherry blossom.
【答案】8. D 9. B 10. B 11. D
【解析】
【分析】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了气候变化对日本樱花的影响。
【8题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第三段“But this year, cherry blossom season has come and gone in the blink of an eye, in one of the earliest blooms on record. Scientists warn it’s a symptom of the larger climate crisis threatening ecosystems everywhere. (但今年，眨眼间，樱花盛开的季节来了又去，这是有记录以来最早的樱花盛开之一。科学家警告说，这是全球生态系统面临更大气候危机的征兆)”及下文对原因的分析可知，文章主要介绍了由于气候变化，日本樱花盛开的季节来得更早了。由此可知，Cherry blossom season coming earlier.(樱花盛开的季节来得更早了)适合作本文最佳标题。故选D。
【9题详解】
词句猜测题。根据划线词前面的“The flowers, which experience a “peak bloom” that only lasts a few days, have been loved in Japan for more than a thousand years. Crowds celebrate with viewing parties (这种花的“盛放期”只持续几天，在日本已经流行了一千多年。人们以观赏派对来庆祝)”可推知，人们蜂拥至最受欢迎的地点拍照，在树枝下野餐。由此推知，划线词flocking与flooding(涌入)意思接近。故选B。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据第五段中的“The peak bloom dates shift every year, depending on numerous factors including weather and rainfall, but have shown a general trend of moving earlier and earlier. In Kyoto, the peak date stayed around mid-April for centuries, but began moving into early April during the 1800s. The date has only dipped into late March a handful of times in recorded history. (开花高峰期的日期每年都在变化，这取决于包括天气和降雨在内的许多因素，但已经显示出一种移动得越来越早的总体趋势。在京都，几个世纪以来，高峰日期一直在4月中旬左右，但在19世纪开始转移到4月初。在有记录的历史上，这个日期只是在三月底出现过几次)”可推知，樱花很少在三月盛开。故选B。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“But this year, cherry blossom season has come and gone in the blink of an eye, in one of the earliest blooms on record. Scientists warn it’s a symptom of the larger climate crisis threatening ecosystems everywhere. (但今年，眨眼间，樱花盛开的季节来了又去，这是有记录以来最早的樱花盛开之一。科学家警告说，这是全球生态系统面临更大气候危机的征兆)”及最后一段“This year’s seasons in particular influenced the blossom dates, he added. The winter was very cold, but the spring came fast and unusually warm.(他补充说，今年的季节对花期的影响尤其大。冬天很冷，但春天来得很快，而且异乎寻常地温暖)”可知，作者写这篇文章的目的是让人们了解气候变化对樱花的影响。故选D。
D
Your best friend that follows you around when the sun comes out - your shadow - doesn’t serve an important function like your heart or brain, but what if you could use shadows to create electricity? When using solar panels (电池板) that are powered by light, shadows can be boring because it means electricity can’t be created. However, researchers from the National University of Singapore have engineered a way to create power from the shadows present everywhere.
A team of the university created a machine that can collect energy from shadows. It is created by placing a thin coating of gold onto silicon (硅). Like in a normal solar panel, when put in light, the silicon electrons (电子) become energized and the energized electrons then jump from the silicon to the gold. The voltage (电压) of the part of the machine that is placed in the light increases relative to the dark part and the electrons in the machine flow from high to low voltage. They are sent through an external circuit (外电路) creating a current that can be used to power another machine. The greater the contrast between light and dark, more energy is provided by the machine.
The team is working on improving the performance of the machine, borrowing approaches from solar panels to gather light. Increasing the amount of light the machines can receive allows them to better make use of shadows, as well as developing shadow energy collecting panels that can successfully gather from indoor lighting. The team is also researching the use of other materials other than gold to drop the price of the machine, meaning they would be more cost effective and easier to apply in society.
Shadows are present everywhere and perhaps one day in the future we will be able to collect energy from them by placing the shadow-effect energy machine around the world in places that have been considered unfit for solar panels to work, or indoors. “A lot of people think that shadows are useless,” Tan says, but “anything can be useful, even shadows.”
12. What is Paragraph 1 mainly about?
A. Your best friend always stays with you after the sunrise.
B. The shadow has the same function as the heart and brain.
C. Shadows can stop solar panels from creating electricity.
D. Researchers have found a way to create power from shadows.
13. What is the key working principle of the machine mentioned in the text?
A. The silicon produces electricity when it is in the light.
B. The gold produces power with the help of the silicon.
C. The energized electrons flow from high to low voltage.
D. An external circuit creates current using another machine.
14. How does the team improve the performance of the machine?
A. Using solar panels in the machine.
B. Increasing the amount of light received.
C. Developing light energy collecting panels.
D. Bringing down the price of gold.
15. Which of the following is the best place to apply the machine?
A. A gym. B. A park. C. A farm. D. A playground.
【答案】12. D 13. C 14. B 15. A
【解析】
【分析】本文是说明文。文章介绍了研究人员设计出的从阴影中收集能量的办法。
【12题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段的“However, researchers from the National University of Singapore have engineered a way to create power from the shadows present everywhere.(然而，来自新加坡国立大学的研究人员已经设计出了一种从世界各地的阴影中创造力量的方法)”可知，第一段讲述研究人员已经找到了一种从阴影中创造力量的方法。故选D。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段的“Like in a normal solar panel, when put in light, the silicon electrons (电子) become energized and the energized electrons then jump from the silicon to the gold. The voltage (电压) of the part of the machine that is placed in the light increases relative to the dark part and the electrons in the machine flow from high to low voltage. They are sent through an external circuit (外电路) creating a current that can be used to power another machine. The greater the contrast between light and dark, more energy is provided by the machine.(就像在普通的太阳能电池板中一样，当放入光中时，硅电子变成能量，有能量的电子然后从硅跳到黄金。机器放置在光中的部分的电压相对于暗部分增加，机器中的电子从高压流动到低压。它们通过外部电路发送，产生一种可用于为另一台机器供电的电流。明暗之间的对比度越大，机器提供的能量就越多)”可知，机器工作原理的关键是带电的电子从高压流到低压。故选C。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段的“The team is working on improving the performance of the machine, borrowing approaches from solar panels to gather light. Increasing the amount of light the machines can receive allows them to better make use of shadows, as well as developing shadow energy collecting panels that can successfully gather from indoor lighting.(该团队正在努力提高机器的性能，利用太阳能电池板的方法来收集光线。增加机器可以接收到的光线的数量，使它们能够更好地利用阴影，以及开发可以从室内照明中成功收集到的阴影能量的收集面板)”可知，这个团队通过增加接收到的光的数量提高机器的性能。故选B。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段的“Shadows are present everywhere and perhaps one day in the future we will be able to collect energy from them by placing the shadow-effect energy machine around the world in places that have been considered unfit for solar panels to work, or indoors.(阴影无处不在，也许将来有一天，我们可以通过将阴影效应能量机器放置在世界各地被认为不适合太阳能电池板工作或在室内工作的地方，从它们那里收集能量)”可知，使用这种机器的最好的地方是不适合太阳能电池板工作的地方或者室内，因此推断体育馆是最好的地方，其它三个地方都是室外。故选A。

【55题详解】
考查过去分词。句意：人们说温哥华是加拿大最美丽的城市，它被山脉和太平洋环绕。分析句子结构可知，动词surround在句子中作为非谓语动词使用，Vancouver 承受surround的动作，因此空格处应填入surround的过去分词作状语。故填surrounded。
【56题详解】
考查现在分词。句意：树木非常高，有些超过90米。分析句子结构可知，measure在句中不是谓语动词，说明逗号后面是独立主格结构，some是measure的逻辑主语，它们在逻辑上是主动关系，因此使用现在分词形式measuring。故填measuring。
