【解析】
【原文】M: Could you suggest some ways to bring family members closer together?
W: Well, I feel it is very important for families to have regular meals together. One of my good childhood memories was dinner with my parents and two sisters. Because my husband and I both work and our three children are busy with their studies, we seldom had a chance to get together as a family. But we thought it would be possi-ble for us to sit down and enjoy meals to-gether every week. First, we tried setting three fixed dates: Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays. But almost everyone was un-happy. Then my son had the idea that eve-ryone told me his or her most convenient days and I would choose the two best days. For a while, the children were still unhappy with the idea. They said they would rather spend the time with their friends playing sports. Gradually they be-gan to see these evenings together as inter-esting and helpful. We loved a lot. We made plans for trips. We discussed each other’s problems. After a couple of months, anyone who had to miss a family meal felt regretful and now we all feel that we have been able to build stronger rela-tionships within the family than we had before.

B
Marty Verel, a 59-year-old kidney transplant patient in Ohio, should have been near the top of the list to receive a COVID-19 vaccine. Yet like millions of others, he wasn’t having any luck. Marty and his wife, Nancy Verel, would sit with computers on their laps trying for hours to book an appointment on different sites, all of which were complex. “I felt hopeless,” Nancy says.
Then Nancy heard about Marla Zwinggi, a 40-year-old mom of three who was spending up to ten hours a day online trying to secure appointments for vulnerable (易受攻击的) individuals. So Nancy messaged Marla on Facebook: Can you help? Twenty-five minutes later, Marla responded by asking for Marty’s legal name, date of birth, and other information. Nine minutes after that, Marla reported back — Marty had an appointment.
Maria’s vaccine hunting started on February 1, when she learned that her parents — her father has leukemia (白血病) and her mother is a breast cancer survivor with a heart condition — were unable to get appointments themselves. She hated that they had to wait. Clicking around on vaccine registration sites, Marla discovered just how difficult it was to book an appointment “was like trying to get a World Series ticket,” she says.
She applied strategies that web insiders are familiar with(keeping multiple browsers open, refreshing sites every 20 seconds, erasing cookies) and added a few of her special skills. “I’m determined. I drink a lot of coffee, and I’m a fast typer,” she says. Soon enough, Marla had secured appointments for her parents. “I felt like a rock star,” she says.
Marla decided that helping others would be her way of giving back. “I feel like I need to will us out of this pandemic (大流行病)”, she says. On February 10, she logged on to Facebook to let people know that she was assisting with bookings. By March 2, she’d secured appointments for 400 seniors, a feat that made Nancy conclude, “Marla is some sort of COVID angel.”
24. Why did Nancy and Marty fail to make an appointment themselves?
A. They had no access to the websites.
B. Too many people applied at the same time.
C. They were not among the first seniors to be vaccinated.
D. The registration sites were too difficult for them.
25. What does the underlined word “feat” in the last paragraph refer to?
A. Strategy. B. Reward. C. Achievement. D. Service.
26. Which of the following words can best describe Marla?
A. Helpful and skillful. B. Reliable and humorous.
C. Confident and generous. D. Ambitious and cooperative.
27. What can be a suitable title for the text?
A. A Woman Assisting Her Parents with Booking Vaccine
B. The Elderly in Great Need of Help in Booking Vaccine
C. A COVID Angel — Securing Vaccine Appointments for Vulnerable Individuals
D. Inaccessible Vaccine Booking Appointments for the Elderly
【答案】24. D 25. C 26. A 27. C
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇新闻报道。文章主要讲述了Marla在疫情期间通过网络帮助别人进行疫苗预约，以回报社会的故事。
【24题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第一段内容“Marty and his wife, Nancy Verel, would sit with computers on their laps trying for hours to book an appointment on different sites, all of which were complex.(Marty和他妻子Nancy Verel膝上放着电脑坐着，花几个小时在不同的网站上预约，而这些预约都很复杂)”可知，这些预约网站过于复杂导致他们在预约注册时遇到了困难，没能成功。故选D项。
【25题详解】
词句猜测题。分析句子可知，划线单词“a feat”为之前句子的同位语，根据句子“By March 2, she’d secured appointments for 400 seniors(到3月2日，她已经为400名老年人预约了)”可知，为400名老人预约新冠疫苗是一件非常了不起的事情，由此推知，“feat”应是“了不起的事情”或“成就”含义。故选C项。
【26题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第四段内容“She applied strategies that web insiders are familiar with(keeping multiple browsers open, refreshing sites every 20 seconds, erasing cookies) and added a few of her special skills. ‘I’m determined. I drink a lot of coffee, and I’m a fast typer,’ she says.(她采用了网络业内人士熟悉的策略，打开多个浏览器，每20秒刷新一个网站，删除cookie，并添加了一些自己的特殊技能。“我有决心。 我喝很多咖啡，打字很快，”她说)”可知，她熟悉网络业内人士的策略，由此可推知，她很专业，在计算机方面是熟练的；文章第五段内容“Marla decided that helping others would be her way of giving back. ‘I feel like I need to will us out of this pandemic’, she says.(Marla决定帮助别人是她回馈社会的方式。她说：“我觉得我需要帮助我们摆脱这场疫情。”)”可知，她愿意帮助别人。由此推知，她是一个有技能又乐于助人的人。故选A项。
【27题详解】
主旨大意题。通过阅读文章可知，文章主要讲述了Marla在帮助父母预约新冠疫苗时切身感受到预约的困难，从而意识到可以利用自身优势帮助其他人预约，作为回报社会的一种方式，且文章末尾句内容“By March 2, she’d secured appointments for 400 seniors, a feat that made Nancy conclude, ‘Marla is some sort of COVID angel.’(到3月2日，她已为400名老年人预约，这一成就让Nancy得出结论，“Marla仿佛是（抗击）新冠病毒的天使。”)”对全文进行了总结和升华。选项C“A COVID Angel — Securing Vaccine Appointments for Vulnerable Individuals(一位（抗击）新冠病毒天使——为易感染者预约疫苗)”符合文章主旨。故选C项。
C
Can we vibrate (振动) ourselves healthy? That’s the basis behind a form of treatment called Whole Body Vibration (WBV). The idea is simple: Standing on a vibrating plate forces our muscles to do work, which could lead to countless health benefits. But, despite years of research and hundreds of studies, the true benefits of WBV are still unclear.
In a 2003 study, researchers saw an increase in vertical (垂直的) jump height after participants simply stood on a vibrating plate several times a week for eight months. But shaking is not a fitness panacea. A study found that subjects who did leg exercises on a vibrating platform for 11 weeks had no increase in their jumping ability. Other early studies found no effects of WBV.
More recent work suggests whole body vibration could offer important benefits to people unable to perform normal workouts. A 2016 Scientific Reports study of 40 people with cerebral palsy (脑瘫) found that the participants could both walk and stand up better after 20 weeks of WBV. A 2017 study in the Journal of Biomechanics found that whole body vibration had a greater effect on older people’s muscles than it did on those who were younger, an indication that it might offer benefits to seniors. A number of research groups have found some indications that WBV could help with cardiovascular health, and a group from Rio de Janeiro State University has shown it could help fight osteoporosis.
These results are encouraging, says Silmara Gusso, a senior lecturer in exercise sciences at the University of Auckland in New Zealand, but more research is needed. And, she warns, not every kind of vibration is helpful to our bodies, so the commercially available vibration plates may not work as advertised.
“We cannot imply that the results obtained with certain equipment can be applied to other equipment,” Gusso says. “Some types of vibration might even cause harm.”
28. What does the underlined word “panacea” in paragraph 2 refer to?
A. Matter. B. Cure-all.
C. Loss. D. Discovery.
29. Who will benefit from WBV most?
A. A weak man unable to run normally.
B. A fit woman hungry for slimmer body.
C. An older citizen suffering from depression.
D. A busy younger eager to improve jumping ability.
30. Which of the following is Silmara Gusso’s idea?
A. She wants to do more researches.
B. Vibration is not beneficial to all.
C. Vibration has made our body in bad condition.
D. Advertised vibration equipments are not effective.
31. Which word best describes the author’s attitude to WBV?
A. Critical. B. Objective.
C. Doubtful. D. Supportive.
【答案】28. B 29. A 30. B 31. C
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了WBV的治疗方法以及研究发现其疗效对部分人群可能有好处但仍然需要进一步的研究。
【28题详解】
词义猜测题。根据第二段中“But shaking is not a fitness panacea. A study found that subjects who did leg exercises on a vibrating platform for 11 weeks had no increase in their jumping ability. Other early studies found no effects of WBV. (但振动并不是健身的panacea。一项研究发现，在振动平台上做腿部运动11周的受试者跳跃能力没有提高。其他早期研究发现WBV无效)”由转折词but和其他研究发现受试者跳跃能力没有提高，WBV无效等可知，振动不是灵丹妙药，包治百病，因此猜测划线词panacea指的是“灵丹妙药”。故选B项。
【29题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段中“More recent work suggests whole body vibration could offer important benefits to people unable to perform normal workouts. A 2016 Scientific Reports study of 40 people with cerebral palsy (脑瘫) found that the participants could both walk and stand up better after 20 weeks of WBV. (最近的研究表明，全身振动可以为无法进行正常锻炼的人提供重要的好处。2016年《科学报告》(Scientific Reports)对40名脑瘫患者进行的一项研究发现，经过20周的WBV后，参与者行走和站立都变得更好了)”可知， 一个虚弱的、不能正常地奔跑的人将从WBV中受益最多。故选A项。
【30题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段中“And, she warns, not every kind of vibration is helpful to our bodies, so the commercially available vibration plates may not work as advertised. (她还警告说，并不是每一种振动都对我们的身体有益，所以市面上可以买到的振动板可能不像广告上说的那样有效)”和最后一段中““Some types of vibration might even cause harm.”(“有些类型的振动甚至可能会造成伤害。”)”可知，Silmara Gusso认为振动并非对所有人都有益。故选B项。
【31题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段中“But, despite years of research and hundreds of studies, the true benefits of WBV are still unclear. (但是，尽管多年的研究和数百项研究，WBV的真正益处仍然不清楚)”可知，作者对WBV持怀疑的态度。故选C项。
D
This year researchers expect the world to snap 1.35 trillion photographs, or about 3.7 billion per day. All those pixels (像素) take up a lot of room if they are stored on personal computers or s phones, which is one reason why many people store their images in the cloud. But unlike a hard on drive which can be encrypted to protect its data, cloud storage users have to trust that a tech platform will keep their private pictures safe. Now a team of Columbia University computer scientists has developed a tool to encrypt (加密) images stored on many popular cloud services while allowing authorized users to browse and display their photographs as usual.
Malicious (恶意的) attempts to access or leak cloud-based photographs can expose personal information. In November 2019, for example, a bug in the popular photograph storage app Google Photos mistakenly shared some users' private videos with strangers. Security experts also worry about employees at cloud storage companies on purpose accessing users' images.
So the Columbia researchers came up with a system called Easy Secure Photos (ESP), which they presented at a recent conference. “We wanted to see if we could make it possible to encrypt data while using existing services,” says computer scientist Jason Nieh, one of the developers of ESP. “Everyone wants to stay with Google Photos and not have to register on a new encrypted-image cloud storage service.”
To overcome this problem, they created a tool that preserves blocks of pixels but moves them around to effectively hide the photograph. First, ESP's algorithm (算法) divides a photograph into three separate files, each one containing the image's red, green or blue color data. Then the system hides the pixel blocks around among these three files (allowing a block from the red file, for instance, to hide out in the green or blue ones). But the program does nothing within the pixel blocks, where all the image processing happens. As a result, the files remain unchanged images but end up looking like grainy black-and-white ones to anyone who accesses them without the decryption (解密) key.
32. What's probably the main purpose for people to store images in the cloud?
A. To save storage room. B. To make photos beautiful.
C. To try a new storage way. D. To keep their privacy safe.
33. Why might employees in cloud storage companies be distrusted by experts?
A. They sell users' passwords.
B. They have invented new tools.
C. They often let out personal information.
D. They may steal a glance at users' images.
34. What's the advantage of ESP?
A. It can provide clear images.
B. It can decrease the upload time.
C. It can classify images automatically.
D. It can encrypt data on the original platform.
35. What does paragraph 4 mainly talk about?
A. Method of decryption. B. Image-processing technique.
C. Separate files of images. D. Data analysis of colors.
【答案】32. A 33. D 34. D 35. B
【解析】
【分析】本文是一篇说明文，主要讲的是哥伦比亚大学的研究人员想出了一个名为“简易安全照片”(ESP)的系统，可以对存储在许多流行云服务上的图像进行加密，同时允许授权用户像往常一样浏览和显示他们的照片。
【32题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段的“All those pixels (像素) take up a lot of room if they are stored on personal computers or s phones, which is one reason why many people store their images in the cloud”（所有这些像素如果存储在个人电脑或手机上，会占用很多空间，这也是为什么很多人会将图像进行云存储的原因之一）可知，人们将照片云存储的主要目的是节省存储空间，故选A。
【33题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段的“Security experts also worry about employees at cloud storage companies on purpose accessing users' images”（安全专家还担心云存储公司的员工会故意访问用户的图像）可知，云存储公司的员工不被专家信任，因为他们可能会偷看用户的图片，故选D。
【34题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段的“We wanted to see if we could make it possible to encrypt data while using existing services”（我们想看看是否可以在使用现有服务的同时加密数据）和“Everyone wants to stay with Google Photos and not have to register on a new encrypted-image cloud storage service”（每个人都想继续使用谷歌Photos，而不必注册新的加密图像云存储服务）可知，ESP的优点是可以在原有平台上对数据进行加密，故选D。
【35题详解】
主旨大意题。通读第四段，尤其是“To overcome this problem, they created a tool that preserves blocks of pixels but moves them around to effectively hide the photograph”（为了克服这个问题，他们发明了一种工具，可以保存像素块，但可以移动它们来有效地隐藏照片）可知，本段主要讲的是一种图像处理技术，故选B。

(事实上，学会优先考虑自己的需求是一个过程)”与前文在意义上一致，故选F。
【37题详解】
根据前文“Start claiming 10-15 minutes a day for yourself. It won't take away from your productivity; it will increase it(开始每天花10-15分钟给自己，这不会减少你的工作效率，反而会增加工作效率)”提到了花时间给自己带来的好处，所以空白处应该接着上文谈要使用这些时间。C选项“Use this time to connect with yourself.(利用这段时间和自己沟通)”与文意一致，故选C。
【38题详解】
根据前文“Don't skip breakfast, have a plan for lunch, and don't starve yourself before dinner.(不要不吃早餐，午餐有计划，晚饭前不要饿着自己)”可知，此处讲不要错过三餐，所以空白处可以作为总说这样你就不会使自己挨饿。A选项“No starvation diets. (没有饥饿节食)”与文意一致，故选A。
【39题详解】
根据前文“Cut the multitasking. (切断多任务处理)”及后文“Practice focusing on doing one thing at a time.(练习一次只做一件事)”可知，此处可以阐述多任务带来的后果。D选项“It stresses us out and makes us less efficient.(这会使我们压力太大，效率太低)”与文意一致，故选D。
【40题详解】
本句位于句首，结合第二、三、四段段首句子的格式，此处同样用祈使句。结合选项可知，只有选项B符合；同时根据下文“We have to pay attention and develop other ways of caring for ourselves instead of turning to food, so improvements are possible.(我们必须注意和发展其他照顾自己的方式，而不是转向食物，所以改进是可能的)”此处的“food”和选项B中的eating相呼应，故选B。

My last trip was part of a three-year project photographing whales that focused on their culture and behaviors.
Perhaps my favorite observation ____61____ (take) place in the Canadian Arctic with belugas (白鲸). One aspect of their lives was ____62____ complete surprise-they play games with little rocks. Their daily lives are busy and ____63____(challenge). They have to catch food and take care of their young. They deal with social situations, ____64____ no doubt conflicts occur. Yet they still make time ____65____(play). In this shallow, three-foot-deep water, they will occasionally pick up pebbles (鹅卵石) with their ____66____ (mouth). They'll carry them around for a while, and then drop them. Another whale then swims by to pick the pebble up again.
We can see ____67____ (we) in these creatures. Humans also speak different languages, enjoy different foods, and pass down family traditions. But perhaps most ____68____(strike), we also rely a rely on one other. The moments we spend with our ____69____(love) ones are often the most treasured ____70____ meaningful in our lives. Just as belugas do, it's essential for us to make time for other things-things that bring joy.
【答案】61. took 62. a
63. challenging
64. where 65. to play
66. mouths 67. ourselves
68. strikingly
69. loved 70. and
【解析】
【分析】本文是一篇记叙文，主要讲了作者在一次拍摄鲸鱼的项目中的所见和所感。
【61题详解】
考查一般过去时。句意：也许我最喜欢观察发生在加拿大北极的白鲸。由前面的My last trip was可知，观察白鲸是过去的事情，因此时态用一般过去时，空格处用过去式，故填took。
【62题详解】
考查冠词。句意：他们生活的一个方面完全出乎意料——他们用小石头玩游戏。they play games with little rocks是让人惊讶的一件事，因此surprise是可数名词，意为“令某人意外惊喜的事物”，句中是单数，表泛指，前面需加不定冠词，complete是辅音音素开头，因此不定冠词用a，故填a。
【63题详解】
考查形容词。句意：他们的日常生活忙碌而富有挑战性。空格处和and并列，跟在are后，应用形容词作表语，challenge的形容词是challenging，意为“有挑战性的”，故填challenging。
【64题详解】
考查定语从句的引导词。句意：他们处理的是社会场合，而这些场合无疑会发生冲突。分析可知，空格处引导定语从句，从句中不缺主语或宾语，先行词situations是抽象地点，因此空格处用关系副词where，故填where。
【65题详解】
考查不定式。句意：然而，他们仍然挤出时间去玩。根据语境可知，句子表示“他们仍然挤出时间去玩”，空格处用不定式作后置定语，修饰名词time，故填to play。
【66题详解】
考查名词的复数。句意：在这三英尺深的浅水里，它们偶尔会用嘴叼起小石子。由their可知，空格处用复数，故填mouths。
【67题详解】
考查反身代词。句意：我们可以在这些生物身上看到自己。根据前面的We can see可知，句子表示“我们可以在这些生物身上看到自己”，因此空格处是“我们自己”，即ourselves，故填ourselves。
【68题详解】
考查副词。句意：但也许最引人注目的是，我们也相互依赖。空格处 用副词修饰整个句子，strike的副词是strikingly，意为“引人注目地”，故填strikingly。
【69题详解】
考查形容词。句意：我们与所爱的人一起度过的时光往往是我们生命中最珍贵、最有意义的时刻。空格处用形容词作定语，修饰名词ones，love的形容词是loved，意为“受珍爱的”，故填loved。
【70题详解】
考查连词。句意：我们与所爱的人一起度过的时光往往是我们生命中最珍贵、最有意义的时刻。根据语境可知，treasured和meaningful是并列关系，因此空格处用表并列的连词and，故填and。

This morning, I found it was snowing heavily. Attracting by the beautiful sight, I decided to go out to take some photo. The snow finally stopped at noon, and I couldn't wait go outside with my camera. As I walked on the path in the front of our building, I saw a boy suddenly slip in the ground. It was at the moment when I realized what I should do. Immediately, I returned home to get a broom but started to sweep the path. It was so a hard job that I sweated a lot. An hour late, the thick snow was cleared away. My neighbors all smiled and give me thumbs-up. I felt very happy that I had done something for my neighborhood.
【答案】1.Attracting→Attracted
2.photo→photos
3.wait后面加to
4.in the front of去掉the
5.in→on
6.when→that
7.but →and
8.so→such
9.late→later
10.give→gave
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇记叙文。本文讲述了作者在雪后被美丽的雪景吸引，到外面拍照。在小路上看到有个男孩因为积雪而滑倒后，决定清除积雪。作者花了一个小时清除了路上的积雪，因而得到邻居的称赞。
【详解】1.考查非谓语动词。句意：被这美丽的景色所吸引，我决定出去拍些照片。分析句子结构可知attract在句中应用非谓语动词形式，与逻辑主语I构成被动关系，用过去分词作状语。故Attracting改为Attracted。
2.考查名词的数。句意：被这美丽的景色所吸引，我决定出去拍些照片。photo为可数名词，由some修饰应用复数。故photo改为photos。
3.考查固定短语。句意：雪终于在中午停了下来，我迫不及待地带着相机走到外面。结合句意表示“迫不及待做某事”可知短语为couldn't wait to do sth.。故wait后面加to。
4.考查固定短语。句意：当我走在楼前的小路上时，我看到一个男孩突然滑倒在地上。in the front of表示在空间内部的前面；in front of表示在某个物体的前面，此处指楼前，应用in front of。故in the front of去掉the。
5.考查介词。句意：当我走在楼前的小路上时，我看到一个男孩突然滑倒在地上。结合句意表示“在地上”可知短语为on the ground。故in改为on。
6.考查强调句。句意：就在那一刻，我意识到我应该做什么。分析句子结构，去掉it was和when，剩余部分结构完整，语义清晰，可知此处为强调句结构“it was+被强调部分+that+其他”，此处被强调部分为at the moment，应用that。故when改为that。
7.考查连词。句意：我立刻回到家，拿起扫把，开始扫路。结合前后文语境，可知为并列关系，应用and。故but 改为and。
8.考查状语从句。句意：这工作太辛苦了，我出了很多汗。修饰后文名词job应用形容词such，such…that…引导结果状语从句，表示“如此……以至于……”。故so改为such。
9.考查固定用法。句意：一小时后，厚厚的积雪被清除。“一段时间+later”表示“多久之后”；“一段时间+late”表示“迟到多久”，故应用later。故late改为later。
10.考查动词时态。句意：我的邻居们都笑着对我竖起大拇指。根据上文smiled可知应用一般过去时，表示发生在过去的事情。故give改为gave。

【答案】17. C 18. B 19. B 20. C
【解析】
【原文】M: Could you suggest some ways to bring family members closer together?
W: Well, I feel it is very important for families to have regular meals together. One of my good childhood memories was dinner with my parents and two sisters. Because my husband and I both work and our three children are busy with their studies, we seldom had a chance to get together as a family. But we thought it would be possi-ble for us to sit down and enjoy meals to-gether every week. First, we tried setting three fixed dates: Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays. But almost everyone was un-happy. Then my son had the idea that eve-ryone told me his or her most convenient days and I would choose the two best days. For a while, the children were still unhappy with the idea. They said they would rather spend the time with their friends playing sports. Gradually they be-gan to see these evenings together as inter-esting and helpful. We loved a lot. We made plans for trips. We discussed each other’s problems. After a couple of months, anyone who had to miss a family meal felt regretful and now we all feel that we have been able to build stronger rela-tionships within the family than we had before.

Marty Verel, a 59-year-old kidney transplant patient in Ohio, should have been near the top of the list to receive a COVID-19 vaccine. Yet like millions of others, he wasn’t having any luck. Marty and his wife, Nancy Verel, would sit with computers on their laps trying for hours to book an appointment on different sites, all of which were complex. “I felt hopeless,” Nancy says.
Then Nancy heard about Marla Zwinggi, a 40-year-old mom of three who was spending up to ten hours a day online trying to secure appointments for vulnerable (易受攻击的) individuals. So Nancy messaged Marla on Facebook: Can you help? Twenty-five minutes later, Marla responded by asking for Marty’s legal name, date of birth, and other information. Nine minutes after that, Marla reported back — Marty had an appointment.
Maria’s vaccine hunting started on February 1, when she learned that her parents — her father has leukemia (白血病) and her mother is a breast cancer survivor with a heart condition — were unable to get appointments themselves. She hated that they had to wait. Clicking around on vaccine registration sites, Marla discovered just how difficult it was to book an appointment “was like trying to get a World Series ticket,” she says.
She applied strategies that web insiders are familiar with(keeping multiple browsers open, refreshing sites every 20 seconds, erasing cookies) and added a few of her special skills. “I’m determined. I drink a lot of coffee, and I’m a fast typer,” she says. Soon enough, Marla had secured appointments for her parents. “I felt like a rock star,” she says.
Marla decided that helping others would be her way of giving back. “I feel like I need to will us out of this pandemic (大流行病)”, she says. On February 10, she logged on to Facebook to let people know that she was assisting with bookings. By March 2, she’d secured appointments for 400 seniors, a feat that made Nancy conclude, “Marla is some sort of COVID angel.”
24. Why did Nancy and Marty fail to make an appointment themselves?
A. They had no access to the websites.
B. Too many people applied at the same time.
C. They were not among the first seniors to be vaccinated.
D. The registration sites were too difficult for them.
25. What does the underlined word “feat” in the last paragraph refer to?
A. Strategy. B. Reward. C. Achievement. D. Service.
26. Which of the following words can best describe Marla?
A. Helpful and skillful. B. Reliable and humorous.
C. Confident and generous. D. Ambitious and cooperative.
27. What can be a suitable title for the text?
A. A Woman Assisting Her Parents with Booking Vaccine
B. The Elderly in Great Need of Help in Booking Vaccine
C. A COVID Angel — Securing Vaccine Appointments for Vulnerable Individuals
D. Inaccessible Vaccine Booking Appointments for the Elderly
【答案】24. D 25. C 26. A 27. C
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇新闻报道。文章主要讲述了Marla在疫情期间通过网络帮助别人进行疫苗预约，以回报社会的故事。
【24题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第一段内容“Marty and his wife, Nancy Verel, would sit with computers on their laps trying for hours to book an appointment on different sites, all of which were complex.(Marty和他妻子Nancy Verel膝上放着电脑坐着，花几个小时在不同的网站上预约，而这些预约都很复杂)”可知，这些预约网站过于复杂导致他们在预约注册时遇到了困难，没能成功。故选D项。
【25题详解】
词句猜测题。分析句子可知，划线单词“a feat”为之前句子的同位语，根据句子“By March 2, she’d secured appointments for 400 seniors(到3月2日，她已经为400名老年人预约了)”可知，为400名老人预约新冠疫苗是一件非常了不起的事情，由此推知，“feat”应是“了不起的事情”或“成就”含义。故选C项。
【26题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第四段内容“She applied strategies that web insiders are familiar with(keeping multiple browsers open, refreshing sites every 20 seconds, erasing cookies) and added a few of her special skills. ‘I’m determined. I drink a lot of coffee, and I’m a fast typer,’ she says.(她采用了网络业内人士熟悉的策略，打开多个浏览器，每20秒刷新一个网站，删除cookie，并添加了一些自己的特殊技能。“我有决心。 我喝很多咖啡，打字很快，”她说)”可知，她熟悉网络业内人士的策略，由此可推知，她很专业，在计算机方面是熟练的；文章第五段内容“Marla decided that helping others would be her way of giving back. ‘I feel like I need to will us out of this pandemic’, she says.(Marla决定帮助别人是她回馈社会的方式。她说：“我觉得我需要帮助我们摆脱这场疫情。”)”可知，她愿意帮助别人。由此推知，她是一个有技能又乐于助人的人。故选A项。
【27题详解】
主旨大意题。通过阅读文章可知，文章主要讲述了Marla在帮助父母预约新冠疫苗时切身感受到预约的困难，从而意识到可以利用自身优势帮助其他人预约，作为回报社会的一种方式，且文章末尾句内容“By March 2, she’d secured appointments for 400 seniors, a feat that made Nancy conclude, ‘Marla is some sort of COVID angel.’(到3月2日，她已为400名老年人预约，这一成就让Nancy得出结论，“Marla仿佛是（抗击）新冠病毒的天使。”)”对全文进行了总结和升华。选项C“A COVID Angel — Securing Vaccine Appointments for Vulnerable Individuals(一位（抗击）新冠病毒天使——为易感染者预约疫苗)”符合文章主旨。故选C项。
C
Can we vibrate (振动) ourselves healthy? That’s the basis behind a form of treatment called Whole Body Vibration (WBV). The idea is simple: Standing on a vibrating plate forces our muscles to do work, which could lead to countless health benefits. But, despite years of research and hundreds of studies, the true benefits of WBV are still unclear.
In a 2003 study, researchers saw an increase in vertical (垂直的) jump height after participants simply stood on a vibrating plate several times a week for eight months. But shaking is not a fitness panacea. A study found that subjects who did leg exercises on a vibrating platform for 11 weeks had no increase in their jumping ability. Other early studies found no effects of WBV.
More recent work suggests whole body vibration could offer important benefits to people unable to perform normal workouts. A 2016 Scientific Reports study of 40 people with cerebral palsy (脑瘫) found that the participants could both walk and stand up better after 20 weeks of WBV. A 2017 study in the Journal of Biomechanics found that whole body vibration had a greater effect on older people’s muscles than it did on those who were younger, an indication that it might offer benefits to seniors. A number of research groups have found some indications that WBV could help with cardiovascular health, and a group from Rio de Janeiro State University has shown it could help fight osteoporosis.
These results are encouraging, says Silmara Gusso, a senior lecturer in exercise sciences at the University of Auckland in New Zealand, but more research is needed. And, she warns, not every kind of vibration is helpful to our bodies, so the commercially available vibration plates may not work as advertised.
“We cannot imply that the results obtained with certain equipment can be applied to other equipment,” Gusso says. “Some types of vibration might even cause harm.”
28. What does the underlined word “panacea” in paragraph 2 refer to?
A. Matter. B. Cure-all.
C. Loss. D. Discovery.
29. Who will benefit from WBV most?
A. A weak man unable to run normally.
B. A fit woman hungry for slimmer body.
C. An older citizen suffering from depression.
D. A busy younger eager to improve jumping ability.
30. Which of the following is Silmara Gusso’s idea?
A. She wants to do more researches.
B. Vibration is not beneficial to all.
C. Vibration has made our body in bad condition.
D. Advertised vibration equipments are not effective.
31. Which word best describes the author’s attitude to WBV?
A. Critical. B. Objective.
C. Doubtful. D. Supportive.
【答案】28. B 29. A 30. B 31. C
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了WBV的治疗方法以及研究发现其疗效对部分人群可能有好处但仍然需要进一步的研究。
【28题详解】
词义猜测题。根据第二段中“But shaking is not a fitness panacea. A study found that subjects who did leg exercises on a vibrating platform for 11 weeks had no increase in their jumping ability. Other early studies found no effects of WBV. (但振动并不是健身的panacea。一项研究发现，在振动平台上做腿部运动11周的受试者跳跃能力没有提高。其他早期研究发现WBV无效)”由转折词but和其他研究发现受试者跳跃能力没有提高，WBV无效等可知，振动不是灵丹妙药，包治百病，因此猜测划线词panacea指的是“灵丹妙药”。故选B项。
【29题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段中“More recent work suggests whole body vibration could offer important benefits to people unable to perform normal workouts. A 2016 Scientific Reports study of 40 people with cerebral palsy (脑瘫) found that the participants could both walk and stand up better after 20 weeks of WBV. (最近的研究表明，全身振动可以为无法进行正常锻炼的人提供重要的好处。2016年《科学报告》(Scientific Reports)对40名脑瘫患者进行的一项研究发现，经过20周的WBV后，参与者行走和站立都变得更好了)”可知， 一个虚弱的、不能正常地奔跑的人将从WBV中受益最多。故选A项。
【30题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段中“And, she warns, not every kind of vibration is helpful to our bodies, so the commercially available vibration plates may not work as advertised. (她还警告说，并不是每一种振动都对我们的身体有益，所以市面上可以买到的振动板可能不像广告上说的那样有效)”和最后一段中““Some types of vibration might even cause harm.”(“有些类型的振动甚至可能会造成伤害。”)”可知，Silmara Gusso认为振动并非对所有人都有益。故选B项。
【31题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段中“But, despite years of research and hundreds of studies, the true benefits of WBV are still unclear. (但是，尽管多年的研究和数百项研究，WBV的真正益处仍然不清楚)”可知，作者对WBV持怀疑的态度。故选C项。
D
This year researchers expect the world to snap 1.35 trillion photographs, or about 3.7 billion per day. All those pixels (像素) take up a lot of room if they are stored on personal computers or s phones, which is one reason why many people store their images in the cloud. But unlike a hard on drive which can be encrypted to protect its data, cloud storage users have to trust that a tech platform will keep their private pictures safe. Now a team of Columbia University computer scientists has developed a tool to encrypt (加密) images stored on many popular cloud services while allowing authorized users to browse and display their photographs as usual.
Malicious (恶意的) attempts to access or leak cloud-based photographs can expose personal information. In November 2019, for example, a bug in the popular photograph storage app Google Photos mistakenly shared some users' private videos with strangers. Security experts also worry about employees at cloud storage companies on purpose accessing users' images.
So the Columbia researchers came up with a system called Easy Secure Photos (ESP), which they presented at a recent conference. “We wanted to see if we could make it possible to encrypt data while using existing services,” says computer scientist Jason Nieh, one of the developers of ESP. “Everyone wants to stay with Google Photos and not have to register on a new encrypted-image cloud storage service.”
To overcome this problem, they created a tool that preserves blocks of pixels but moves them around to effectively hide the photograph. First, ESP's algorithm (算法) divides a photograph into three separate files, each one containing the image's red, green or blue color data. Then the system hides the pixel blocks around among these three files (allowing a block from the red file, for instance, to hide out in the green or blue ones). But the program does nothing within the pixel blocks, where all the image processing happens. As a result, the files remain unchanged images but end up looking like grainy black-and-white ones to anyone who accesses them without the decryption (解密) key.
32. What's probably the main purpose for people to store images in the cloud?
A. To save storage room. B. To make photos beautiful.
C. To try a new storage way. D. To keep their privacy safe.
33. Why might employees in cloud storage companies be distrusted by experts?
A. They sell users' passwords.
B. They have invented new tools.
C. They often let out personal information.
D. They may steal a glance at users' images.
34. What's the advantage of ESP?
A. It can provide clear images.
B. It can decrease the upload time.
C. It can classify images automatically.
D. It can encrypt data on the original platform.
35. What does paragraph 4 mainly talk about?
A. Method of decryption. B. Image-processing technique.
C. Separate files of images. D. Data analysis of colors.
【答案】32. A 33. D 34. D 35. B
【解析】
【分析】本文是一篇说明文，主要讲的是哥伦比亚大学的研究人员想出了一个名为“简易安全照片”(ESP)的系统，可以对存储在许多流行云服务上的图像进行加密，同时允许授权用户像往常一样浏览和显示他们的照片。
【32题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段的“All those pixels (像素) take up a lot of room if they are stored on personal computers or s phones, which is one reason why many people store their images in the cloud”（所有这些像素如果存储在个人电脑或手机上，会占用很多空间，这也是为什么很多人会将图像进行云存储的原因之一）可知，人们将照片云存储的主要目的是节省存储空间，故选A。
【33题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段的“Security experts also worry about employees at cloud storage companies on purpose accessing users' images”（安全专家还担心云存储公司的员工会故意访问用户的图像）可知，云存储公司的员工不被专家信任，因为他们可能会偷看用户的图片，故选D。
【34题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段的“We wanted to see if we could make it possible to encrypt data while using existing services”（我们想看看是否可以在使用现有服务的同时加密数据）和“Everyone wants to stay with Google Photos and not have to register on a new encrypted-image cloud storage service”（每个人都想继续使用谷歌Photos，而不必注册新的加密图像云存储服务）可知，ESP的优点是可以在原有平台上对数据进行加密，故选D。
【35题详解】
主旨大意题。通读第四段，尤其是“To overcome this problem, they created a tool that preserves blocks of pixels but moves them around to effectively hide the photograph”（为了克服这个问题，他们发明了一种工具，可以保存像素块，但可以移动它们来有效地隐藏照片）可知，本段主要讲的是一种图像处理技术，故选B。

阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。
My last trip was part of a three-year project photographing whales that focused on their culture and behaviors.
Perhaps my favorite observation ____61____ (take) place in the Canadian Arctic with belugas (白鲸). One aspect of their lives was ____62____ complete surprise-they play games with little rocks. Their daily lives are busy and ____63____(challenge). They have to catch food and take care of their young. They deal with social situations, ____64____ no doubt conflicts occur. Yet they still make time ____65____(play). In this shallow, three-foot-deep water, they will occasionally pick up pebbles (鹅卵石) with their ____66____ (mouth). They'll carry them around for a while, and then drop them. Another whale then swims by to pick the pebble up again.
We can see ____67____ (we) in these creatures. Humans also speak different languages, enjoy different foods, and pass down family traditions. But perhaps most ____68____(strike), we also rely a rely on one other. The moments we spend with our ____69____(love) ones are often the most treasured ____70____ meaningful in our lives. Just as belugas do, it's essential for us to make time for other things-things that bring joy.
【答案】61. took 62. a
63. challenging
64. where 65. to play
66. mouths 67. ourselves
68. strikingly
69. loved 70. and
【解析】
【分析】本文是一篇记叙文，主要讲了作者在一次拍摄鲸鱼的项目中的所见和所感。
【61题详解】
考查一般过去时。句意：也许我最喜欢观察发生在加拿大北极的白鲸。由前面的My last trip was可知，观察白鲸是过去的事情，因此时态用一般过去时，空格处用过去式，故填took。
【62题详解】
考查冠词。句意：他们生活的一个方面完全出乎意料——他们用小石头玩游戏。they play games with little rocks是让人惊讶的一件事，因此surprise是可数名词，意为“令某人意外惊喜的事物”，句中是单数，表泛指，前面需加不定冠词，complete是辅音音素开头，因此不定冠词用a，故填a。
【63题详解】
考查形容词。句意：他们的日常生活忙碌而富有挑战性。空格处和and并列，跟在are后，应用形容词作表语，challenge的形容词是challenging，意为“有挑战性的”，故填challenging。
【64题详解】
考查定语从句的引导词。句意：他们处理的是社会场合，而这些场合无疑会发生冲突。分析可知，空格处引导定语从句，从句中不缺主语或宾语，先行词situations是抽象地点，因此空格处用关系副词where，故填where。
【65题详解】
考查不定式。句意：然而，他们仍然挤出时间去玩。根据语境可知，句子表示“他们仍然挤出时间去玩”，空格处用不定式作后置定语，修饰名词time，故填to play。
【66题详解】
考查名词的复数。句意：在这三英尺深的浅水里，它们偶尔会用嘴叼起小石子。由their可知，空格处用复数，故填mouths。
【67题详解】
考查反身代词。句意：我们可以在这些生物身上看到自己。根据前面的We can see可知，句子表示“我们可以在这些生物身上看到自己”，因此空格处是“我们自己”，即ourselves，故填ourselves。
【68题详解】
考查副词。句意：但也许最引人注目的是，我们也相互依赖。空格处 用副词修饰整个句子，strike的副词是strikingly，意为“引人注目地”，故填strikingly。
【69题详解】
考查形容词。句意：我们与所爱的人一起度过的时光往往是我们生命中最珍贵、最有意义的时刻。空格处用形容词作定语，修饰名词ones，love的形容词是loved，意为“受珍爱的”，故填loved。
【70题详解】
考查连词。句意：我们与所爱的人一起度过的时光往往是我们生命中最珍贵、最有意义的时刻。根据语境可知，treasured和meaningful是并列关系，因此空格处用表并列的连词and，故填and。

This morning, I found it was snowing heavily. Attracting by the beautiful sight, I decided to go out to take some photo. The snow finally stopped at noon, and I couldn't wait go outside with my camera. As I walked on the path in the front of our building, I saw a boy suddenly slip in the ground. It was at the moment when I realized what I should do. Immediately, I returned home to get a broom but started to sweep the path. It was so a hard job that I sweated a lot. An hour late, the thick snow was cleared away. My neighbors all smiled and give me thumbs-up. I felt very happy that I had done something for my neighborhood.
【答案】1.Attracting→Attracted
2.photo→photos
3.wait后面加to
4.in the front of去掉the
5.in→on
6.when→that
7.but →and
8.so→such
9.late→later
10.give→gave
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇记叙文。本文讲述了作者在雪后被美丽的雪景吸引，到外面拍照。在小路上看到有个男孩因为积雪而滑倒后，决定清除积雪。作者花了一个小时清除了路上的积雪，因而得到邻居的称赞。
【详解】1.考查非谓语动词。句意：被这美丽的景色所吸引，我决定出去拍些照片。分析句子结构可知attract在句中应用非谓语动词形式，与逻辑主语I构成被动关系，用过去分词作状语。故Attracting改为Attracted。
2.考查名词的数。句意：被这美丽的景色所吸引，我决定出去拍些照片。photo为可数名词，由some修饰应用复数。故photo改为photos。
3.考查固定短语。句意：雪终于在中午停了下来，我迫不及待地带着相机走到外面。结合句意表示“迫不及待做某事”可知短语为couldn't wait to do sth.。故wait后面加to。
4.考查固定短语。句意：当我走在楼前的小路上时，我看到一个男孩突然滑倒在地上。in the front of表示在空间内部的前面；in front of表示在某个物体的前面，此处指楼前，应用in front of。故in the front of去掉the。
5.考查介词。句意：当我走在楼前的小路上时，我看到一个男孩突然滑倒在地上。结合句意表示“在地上”可知短语为on the ground。故in改为on。
6.考查强调句。句意：就在那一刻，我意识到我应该做什么。分析句子结构，去掉it was和when，剩余部分结构完整，语义清晰，可知此处为强调句结构“it was+被强调部分+that+其他”，此处被强调部分为at the moment，应用that。故when改为that。
7.考查连词。句意：我立刻回到家，拿起扫把，开始扫路。结合前后文语境，可知为并列关系，应用and。故but 改为and。
8.考查状语从句。句意：这工作太辛苦了，我出了很多汗。修饰后文名词job应用形容词such，such…that…引导结果状语从句，表示“如此……以至于……”。故so改为such。
9.考查固定用法。句意：一小时后，厚厚的积雪被清除。“一段时间+later”表示“多久之后”；“一段时间+late”表示“迟到多久”，故应用later。故late改为later。
10.考查动词时态。句意：我的邻居们都笑着对我竖起大拇指。根据上文smiled可知应用一般过去时，表示发生在过去的事情。故give改为gave。
