On a bitter cold Sunday morning just outside New York City, a group of women — all moms, many strangers to one another — gathered for their very first group scream.
Jessica Kline, the publisher of Macaroni KID Clifton-Montclair, organized the mom screaming event in her community. Two years of a pandemic, burdened with the stresses of childcare and school disruptions（中断）, have left many parents drained. A new CBS News poll finds nearly half of parents report feeling exhausted or frustrated.
Kline told correspondent Meg Oliver that over the last two years, she's often felt overwhelmed and isolated. When the pandemic started, she had three children under the age of six at home. "My house felt narrow; I felt like the walls were caving in on me, "she said."And I just felt like there was no place to go. "
As the women gathered and screamed on this day in Verona Park, in Verona, N. J., caved emotions poured out. They got a great sense of relief. "I love my kids dearly, but it is nice to just be able to go and be in a community of moms." One woman laughed.
Psychologist Lisa Damour, a CBS News contributor, said these screaming events can be a healthy way to express and release emotion. "It offers relief. It's important to talk about the uglier sides of parenthood, to make parents feel less alone and ashamed. "
Kline hopes this is just the beginning of mom gatherings in her community. She said, "I hope that moms walked away with a sense of self-care, even if it's just for a little bit, and a positive memory that they can bring with them after this entire chaos."
21．Why did the moms join in the screaming event?
A．To exchange their parenting skills.
B．To keep themselves from loneliness.
C．To seek help from a psychologist.
D．To let out their negative emotions.
22．Which may be a quote from the screaming moms?
A．"I feel so guilty for being a full time mother."
B．"Keeping my kids entertained throughout the day is fun."
C．"I just work, and my daughter — I have no time for me."
D．"I don't want to be away from my kids even for a little while!?"
23．What can be inferred about the screaming event?
A．It greatly strengthened the mom-kid bond.
B．More such events will be organized nationwide.
C．The parenting skills of working moms are poor.
D．Moms felt good and grateful for this opportunity.
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D 四个选项中，选出最佳选项。
Every morning at five o'clock, composer (作曲家) Walter Werzowa would sit down at his computer waiting for a particular daily e-mail. It came from a team that had been working all night to draft Beethoven's unfinished 10th Symphony. The e-mail contained hundreds of versions, and Werzowa listened to them all, looking for the perfect tune—a sound that was unmistakably Beethoven. But the phrases he was listening to weren't composed by Beethoven. They were created by artificial intelligence.
When Ludwig van Beethoven died in 1827, he left behind some musical drafts and notes. There was barely enough to make out a phrase, let alone a whole symphony. But that didn't stop people from trying.
Werzowa and a group of music experts and computer scientists teamed up to use machine learning to create the symphony. Ahmed Elgammal led the AI side of the team. The team's first task was to teach the AI to think like Beethoven. To do that, they gave it Beethoven's complete works, his drafts and notes. They taught it Beethoven's process—like how he went from four notes to his entire Fifth Symphony. Then they taught it to compose a bridge between two sections. With all that knowledge, the AI came as close to thinking like Beethoven as possible. But it still wasn't enough. The AI doesn't really produce something that can continue for a long time and be consistent. So the team had to put the selected pieces together to build a symphony.
Matthew Guzdial researches creativity (创造力) and machine learning at the University of Alberta. He didn't work on the Beethoven project, but he says, "Modern AI, modern machine learning, is all about just copying small local patterns. And it's up to a human to then take what the AI outputs and find the genius (天资). The genius wasn't in the AI. The genius was in the human who was doing the selection."
24．How did Walter Werzowa contribute to the Beethoven project?
A．He trained the AI to think like a human.
B．He replied to daily e-mails every morning.
C．He selected the best tune created by the AI.
D．He drafted Beethoven's unfinished symphony.
25．What was the major challenge the team met?
A．The AI was far from thinking like Beethoven.
B．It was hard to put pieces together to build a symphony.
C．The AI couldn't create a long and consistent piece of music.
D．There were not enough complete works for machine learning.
26．Which of the following would Matthew Guzdial most probably agree with?
A．AI is likely to be a barrier to creativity.
B．The potential of AI is being brought out.
C．The value of AI shouldn't be overlooked.
D．AI can't totally replace the role of humans.
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D 四个选项中，选出最佳选项。
On June 7, 1195, a fiery spinning ball emerged from a dark cloud in the sunny sky close to the London city. An account of this extraordinary moment survives in a chronicle (编年史) between about 1180 and 1199 by Gervase. It would appear that this is the first credible record of ball lightning in England, and much more convincing than the earliest European description, which was believed to be from the 17th century.
Historians discovered the account of what appears to be ball lightning while exploring Gervase's records of natural events in his chronicle, a treasure of historical details giving insights into medieval culture. They dug through hundreds of pages in Latin and came across this sighting. Gervase's records of natural events appear within the historical narrative, often with no opening statement, and the account of ball lightning is sandwiched between the events of the changing of kings at that time.
No attempt is made to explain the "marvelous sign" in the sky seen near London. Readers are left to draw their own conclusions. But Gervase appears to have been a sharp-eyed observer and reporter of celestial (天空的) activity. His fanciful description of ball lightning is remarkably similar to modern reports.
For a long time, ball lightning was regarded with skepticism. Although it is now generally accepted as a genuine phenomenon with thousands of reported sightings, there is still no accepted scientific explanation of its origin. Understanding the phenomenon has been blocked by an inability to reproduce the effect convincingly in the lab and partly because of the variations in eyewitness reports. Whatever the case, centuries later, Gervase's record makes stimulating reading for modern scientists as well as historians.
27．What's special about the account of ball lightning by Gervase?
A．It's the most confusing version.
B．It's written in different languages.
C．It's the earliest acknowledged record.
D．It's the only copy from the17th Century.
28．Historians spotted Gervase's account of ball lightning______.
A．with ease B．as planned C．at the start D．by accident
29．It's difficult to explain the origin of ball lightning mainly because of______.
A．no qualified scientists B．no accurate reproductions
C．few eyewitness reports D．little support from historians
30．Which of the following is the best title for the text?
A．Scientists Search for Explanations for Ball Lightning
B．Gervase Was Found as The Eyewitness of Ball Lightning
C．Account of First Ball Lightning Sighting Was Uncovered
D．Historians Gain a Breakthrough in a Natural Phenomenon

62．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。
When I was little, I lived in a house with a beautiful garden full of all kinds of flowers, and roses were the most beautiful of them. There was nothing I enjoyed more than sitting in the garden with my mother as she read stories to me. When I was in primary school and old enough to read, I enjoyed reading stories aloud to her.
I will never forget one day when I was in the third grade. I had been picked to be the princess in the school play, and for weeks my mother had rehearsed (排练) my lines so hard with me. But no matter how easily I acted at home, as soon as I stepped onstage, every word disappeared from my head. Finally, my teacher took me aside. She explained that she had written a narrator's (旁白、解说员)part to the play, and asked me to change roles. Her word, kindly expressed, still hurt, especially when I saw my part go to another girl.
I didn't tell my mother what had happened when I went home after school that day. But she sensed my pain. Instead of suggesting we practice my lines, she asked if I wanted to take a walk in the garden.
It was May and roses were blossoming and, under the trees, we could also see yellow dandelions (蒲公英) in the grass, as if a painter had painted our garden with red, yellow and green. I watched my mother casually bend down by one dandelion. "I think I'm going to dig up all these weeds," she said, pulling it up by its roots. "From now on, we'll have only roses in this garden."
"But I like dandelions," I protested. "All flowers are beautiful —— even dandelions."
My mother looked at me seriously. "Yes, every flower is beautiful in its own way, isn't it?" She asked thoughtfully. I nodded, pleased that I had won her over. "And that is true of people too," she added. "Not everyone can be a princess, but there is no shame in that." Relieved that she had guessed my pain, I started to cry as I told her what had happened. She listened and smiled reassuringly.
注意：
1）续写词数应 150左右；
2）请按如下格式作答
"But you will be a beautiful narrator," she said,…
After the play, I took home the flower. …

61．【答案】My Understanding of Failure
This famous quote from J. Burroughs conveys that when faced with failure, we should reflect on ourselves instead of putting the blame on others, which is more important than failure itself.
When entering high school, many classmates found it really difficult to learn maths and did poorly in exams. They blamed it on the teacher rather than themselves, which resulted in even poorer performance. I was no exception. However, when I realized complaining made no sense, I adjusted my learning methods and turned to the teacher whenever I encountered difficult problems. Gradually, I began to make progress, which in turn boosted my confidence in maths.
The lesson I have drawn from this experience is that only by bravely taking full responsibility for failure rather than blaming others can we succeed.

62．【答案】One possible version:
"But you will be a beautiful narrator," she said, reminding me how much I loved to read stories aloud to her. "The narrator's part is just as important as the part of a princess." Her wise words inspired me with courage and confidence. But on the evening of the performance, I suddenly felt nervous backstage again. My teacher came over to me. "Your mother asked me to give you this," she said, handing me a dandelion. Looking at it, I knew my mother was out there for me, which calmed me down.
After the play, I took home the flower. My mother made it into a dried flower and put it into a glass bottle. Every time I see it, I am reminded of this unforgettable experience. I have taken part in many school plays, tried different roles and made many speeches ever since. Gradually, I've become really good at performing and public speaking, seldom feeling nervous onstage now. For this, I am forever grateful to my mother, who have made me what I am today.
【解析】【分析】本篇书面表达是读后续写。通过阅读文章可知，讲述了作者和她母亲之间的故事，作者在一次演出中被选中扮演公主的角色，反复不断的练习，但是由于紧张迈步就忘记台词，老师给作者换了一个旁白的角色，作者非常伤心，于是作者的妈妈用蒲公英来告诉作者旁白和公主的角色一样重要，激发了作者的勇气和信心，并且这件事从此成为了作者难忘的经历，激励作者变得非常擅长表演和演讲，作者非常感谢她的妈妈成就了今天的她。段落续写：①由第一段首句内容“但是你可以成为一个很好的旁白，”她说。”可知，第一段可描写作者受到妈妈的鼓励，鼓起勇气，完成了演出。②由第二段首句内容“演出结束后，我把蒲公英带回家。”可知，第二段可描写作者和母亲之间的故事，成为了作者难忘的经历，并且让她变得擅长表演和演出。写作时注意准确运用时态，上下文意思连贯，符合逻辑关系，尽量使用自己熟悉的单词句式，同时也要注意使用高级词汇和高级句型使文章显得更有档次。
【点评】本书面表达要点齐全，上下文连贯，使用一定数量的句式结构，让句子更加生动丰满，同时运用了许多高级词汇和固定短语，提高文章的档次，体现了对英语的熟练的驾驭能力。例如： ... reminding me how much I loved to read stories aloud to her. 运用了现在分词作状语，宾语从句；The narrator's part is just as important as the part of a princess.运用了比较状语从句； Looking at it, I knew my mother was out there for me, which calmed me down.运用了宾语从句，非限制性定语从句； Every time I see it, I am reminded of this unforgettable experience. 运用了时间状语从句；For this, I am forever grateful to my mother, who have made me what I am today.运用了非限制性定语从句。
