Jeremy and his wife Jennifer had recently moved to South Texas because of their love for nature. At the moment, they were living in a trailer(拖车) for the house was still under repair.
On a steamy Sunday morning in May, the couple were tidying their yard. At around 10:30 a. m. , Jeremy began mowing the lawn while Jennifer worked on the garden. She had just reached down to grab a weed when she saw it : a western diamondback rattlesnake, right next to her hand. Jennifer leaped up as the snake, a yard long, rose into striking position, its dusty triangular head tensed and its tail rattling. “Snake!” yelled Jennifer as she backed away.
When Jeremy heard her cry, he figured she had run into one of the harmless rat snakes that often showed up on their land. He grabbed a shovel to shoo(用嘘声驱赶) the creature away and jogged around the house to the garden. Then he heard the rattling. His wife was cornered between some shrubs and the house, the snake directly in her path.
Jeremy first tried to scoop up the rattler using the shovel, without success. Then he did what was necessary: He raised the garden tool and brought the edge down hard through the snake’s body, an inch and a half below the head to cut off its head. Then Jennifer went into the house, her heart hammering, while Jeremy decided to move the dead reptile. He bent down to pick up a stick lying next to the snake’s head so that he could take it away. But before his hand even touched the ground, the snake attacked. The snake injected venom(毒液) into his hand.
“It bit me!” he yelled in horror. The truth is, the back-from-the-dead bites aren’t uncommon. Hearing his yell,Jennifer ran back into the trailer to get the car keys and meanwhile called 911. Fortunately, they arrived at the nearest hospital in time and Jeremy received timely treatment.
24. Why did the couple choose to live in a trailer?
A. Because they loved nature.
B. Because they moved to South Texas.
C. Because their house was being repaired.
D. Because it was convenient for them to travel.
25. Which one is correct according to the context?
A. Rattlesnake was very common on their land.
B. Jennifer spotted the snake when she was weeding.
C. The snake was so frightened that it attacked Jennifer.
D. Jennifer thought the snake was not poisonous at first.
26. What did they do with the snake?
A. They drove it away using a stick.
B. They left it as it was when seeing it.
C. They called professionals to deal with it.
D. Jeremy beat it dead with a garden tool.
27. What is the author’s purpose in writing the test?
A. To show the couple’s love of nature.
B. To share a thrilling story with readers.
C. To call on us to protect the environment.
D. To introduce some ways to deal with snakes.

C
Everything you know is in your brain. For what you don't, you can ask the web. However, as you can imagine, in the past there were no computers and no web at all. Think about people living 3, 500 years ago, in places where pyramids towered above them. The lack of explanations about how things worked inspired the ancients to make discoveries and feed their curiosity.
But do not think they knew nothing: in fact, we still wonder how the Egyptians could build the pyramids using their own, rather rudimentary equipment. They wrote down their knowledge on books(called papyrus scrolls)so that later people could benefit from their skills.
Living safer and healthier was a top priority for the ancients: when they hurt their heads in battles, they used to heal their wounds using the cures, some of which were recorded on a papyrus now known as the Edwin Smith Papyrus. Interestingly, this is the oldest written evidence of the word "brain" we have on Earth, and it dates back to 3, 500 years ago!
However, writing the word "brain" on a papyrus did not solve all the curiosities and questions about it. Around 2, 500 years ago, for example, ancient Greeks wondered whether mind and soul lay in the brain or in the heart.
2, 000 years ago, Roman physician Galen of Pergamon was sure he had solved the question: it was the brain, not the heart, that was the center of mental life. However, Galen had to convince the people around him that what he had discovered was true. It was not easy, mostly because people held their earlier beliefs. Every neuroscientist, just like Galen did, has to carefully observe reality, focus on something that is really interesting, think about how it can work, perform experiments, and discuss the data they get. This way, they can obtain convincing evidence to be shared with others.
28.What encouraged the ancients to make discoveries?
A. The hope for keeping curiosity. B. The need for writing books.
C. The search for explanations. D. The wish to work faster.
29. Which word can best replace "rudimentary" underlined in paragraph 2?
A. Complicated. B. Primitive. C. Electrical. D. Protective.
30. What can be learned about the Edwin Smith Papyrus?
A. It was probably a medical text. B. It was finished 2,500 years ago.
C. It was considered useless at first. D. It was written by Galen of Pergamon.
31. How did Galen convince people of his discovery?
A. By finding evidence from papyrus scrolls.
B. By asking many scientists to support him.
C. By following strict scientific methods.
D. By teaching people to do experiments.
【答案】28. C 29. B 30. A 31. C
【解析】
28. C 细节理解题。根据第一段最后一句"The lack of explanations about how things worked inspired the ancients to make discoveries and feed their curiosity. "可知答案，故选 C。
29. B 词义猜测题。根据所在段"we still wonder how the Egyptians could build the pyramids using their own，rather rudimentary equipment. "及第一段中"Think about people living 3，500 years ago，in places where pyr-amids towered above them，instead of the modern buildings you can see around you. "可知，3500年前的古埃及人使用他们自己的、原始的设备建造出令人惊叹的金字塔，故选 B。
30. A 推理判断题。根据第三段中的"when they hurt their heads in battles，they used to heal their wounds using the cures they had discovered on their own, some of which were recorded on a papyrus now known as the Edwin Smith Papyrus. "可知答案，故选 A。
31. C 推理判断题。根据最后一段中"Every neuroscientist，just like Galen did，has to carefully observe reality, focus on something that is really interesting, think about how it can work, perform experiments, and discuss the data they get. This way，they can obtain convincing evidence to be shared with others. "可知，科学研究应该遵循严格的科学的方法，故选 C。

D
By now, it is pretty well understood that we regularly pay for things in ways other than using money. Sometimes we pay sill with cash. But we also pay for things with data, and more often, with our time and attention. We effectively hand over access to our minds in exchange for something "fee"， like email, streaming video or online shopping pages. As opposed to "paying" attention, we actually "spend attention"， agreeing to the view ads in exchange for something we really want.
The centrality of that deal in our lives makes it unacceptable that there are companies who seize our time and attention for absolutely nothing in exchange, and indeed, without permission at all-otherwise known as "attention theft".
Attention theft happens anywhere you find your time and attention taken without permission, like the new, targeted advertising screens in hospital waiting rooms, the airlines that play full-volume advertising from a screen right in front of your face, or the advertising - screens in office elevators. These are just few examples in what is a growing category. Combined, they threaten to make us live life in a screen-lined cocoon（茧），shrunken and incapable of independent thought.
Then, what makes it "theft"？Advances in neuroscience over the last several decades make it clear that our brain's resources are unconsciously triggered（触发）by sound and movement；therefore the screens seize rare mental resources. Meanwhile, in the law, theft is typically defined as the taking control of a resource "under such circumstances as to acquire the major part of its economic value or benefit. " Given the established market value of time and attention, when taken without permission or compensation, it really is not much different from someone taking money out of your pocket. Thus, when the firms selling public-screen advertising to target audiences brag of rapid growth and billions in profit, those are actually earnings made by stealing from us.
32. What phenomenon is described in Paragraph 1？ ______
A. Preference for cash. B. Consumption of attention.
C. Payments in shopping. D. Addiction to mass media.
33. How does the writer show the wide spread of "attention theft"？ ______
A. By making a definition. B. By analyzing causes.
C. By giving examples. D. By predicting results.
34. Why is "attention theft" considered as a theft？ ______
A. It brings a fortune to the thief.
B. It lays heavy burden on the brain.
C. It takes up mental resources secretly.
D. It brings about economic loss constantly.
35. What could be the best title for the text？ ______
A. The Crisis of Attention Theft
B. The Price of Attention Theft
C. Ads：Source or Theft of Information
D. "Paying" Instead of "Spending" Attention
【答案】32. D 33. C 34. C 35. A
【解析】
32. D. 段落大意题。根据第一段意思"到目前为止，人们已经很清楚，我们经常用其他方式来支付东西，而不是用金钱。有时我们用现金支付。但我们也用数据来购买东西，更经常的是，用我们的时间和注意力。我们有效地交出了进入大脑的权利，以换取一些"收费"的东西，比如电子邮件、流媒体视频或在线购物页面。与"投入"注意力相反，我们实际上是"投入注意力"，同意观看广告以换取我们真正想要的东西。"可知，对于我们想要的东西，有多种支付形式，用"时间和注意力"支付，在大众媒体中换取着我们想要的东西。A. 喜好换取现金；B. 消费的关注；C. 购物支付。D. 沉迷于大众媒体。根据段意，D项符合题意。故选D.
33. C. 写作方法题。根据第三段意思"注意力盗窃，任何地方都可能发生，你发现你的时间和注意力在未经许可的情况下被占用，比如医院候诊室里新的定向广告屏幕，在你面前的屏幕上播放大音量广告的航空公司，或者办公室电梯里的广告屏幕。这只是一个不断增长的领域中的几个例子。综合起来，它们威胁着我们，使我们生活在一个丝网包围的茧里，萎缩，无法独立思考。"可知，作者是通过举例来说明这一现象。故选C.
34. C. 推理判断题。根据第三段意思"那么，是什么让它成为"盗窃"呢？过去几十年的神经科学进展表明，我们的大脑资源是由声音和运动无意识地触发的；因此，屏幕会攫取稀缺的精神资源。与此同时，在法律上，盗窃通常被定义为"在这种情况下获取资源的主要经济价值或利益"。考虑到时间和注意力的既定市场价值，如果在没有得到许可或补偿的情况下使用它，那就和有人从你口袋里拿钱没什么不同。因此，当向目标受众出售公共屏幕广告的公司吹嘘其快速增长和数十亿美元的利润时，这些实际上是在赚取通过窃取我们而得的收入。"可知，在未经我们许可的情况下，大众媒体屏幕攫取我们稀缺的精神资源从而谋取了利益，就是"窃取"。C项"它秘密地占用精神资源"符合题意。故选C.
35. A. 标题归纳题。通读全文可知，文章主要讲述了，在我们未觉知的状态下，大众媒体屏幕获取我们的注意力，迫使我们吸收商业广告，攫取我们的精神资源。根据四个选项A. "注意力被盗的危机"；B. "窃取注意力的代价"C. "信息的来源或窃取"D. "支付"而不是"花费"注意力，可知A项符合文意。故选A.
本文是一篇议论文。文章主要讲述了，在我们未觉知的状态下，大众媒体屏幕获取我们的注意力，迫使我们吸收商业广告，攫取我们的精神资源。
第二节(共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5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。
Meeting new people is a great way to broaden your horizons, expand your social circle- or swap it for a new one. Most of us are looking to make regular friends and if possible, true, soul friends. 36
Identify opportunities. We let chances to make friends pass us by every day 37 Instead of forcing a little small talk with your kindly neighbors, ask them in for a cup of tea and get to know them... You'll be surprised by how many potential friends there already are in your orbit.
38 Joining a group, club or class is an effective way to meet people. Pursue a skill you are enthusiastic about, because then you will have a good time and feel more at ease striking up a conversation.
Allow yourself to be vulnerable(易受伤害的). 39 What if your overtures (主动表示) are rejected? A degree of vulnerability is needed in trying to strike up friendships. Put plainly, keeping yourself to yourself isn't going to help you. Letting others in on plans is simple ways to share, which will help build closeness and trust.
Use Technology widely. Social media can be hugely beneficial for making friends. Apps can be a good starting point, as can platforms. 40 . The more we rely on apps, the less practice we have with the kinds of conversations and experiences that really allow us to create close friendships.
A. Follow your interests.
B. Turn to community for help.
C. Here are some ways to get out there.
D. It can be scary trying to make friends.
E. But they do not replace personal interactions.
F. They're perfect ways of expanding your social circle.
G. Have the courage to take small steps when opportunities arise.
【答案】
36-40 CGADE
【解析】
第36题 C 根据前面说要夸大社交圈，多数人都想交朋友，甚至是交真心朋友，然后后文讲了一系列交朋友的方法可知，此处选C才能引出下文，以下是一些到那的方法。

第37题 G 根据前面说我们每天都错失机会，后文说要和友善邻居喝茶了解他们可知，此处选G才能承上启下，small steps对应喝茶，在机会来临的时候要有勇气迈出一小步。

第38题 A 根据后文说加入群体、俱乐部或班级，锻炼你热爱的技能可知，A才能引出下文，遵循你的兴趣吧。

第39题 D 根据前一句表明建议让自己易受伤害，后文说如果主动表示被拒绝了怎么办，受伤害在尝试交朋友时是需要的可知，选D才符合下文，scary thing对应被拒绝和易受伤害是需要的，交朋友可能是吓人的尝试。

第40题 E 根据前面讲社交媒体可以有很大帮助，app是很好的起点，空格后表明越依赖app，就越少实践可能创造亲密友谊的对话和经历，因此选E满足前后转折，也符合开头句的wisely，they指代apps，但他们并不能代替个人互动。

Still, I gave my son a 44 to put in the charity kettle at the door to the store. We went in and soon filled our cart with food. I 45 using the self-checkout machines. I much preferred to chat with the friendly 46 , but the line at them was five deep and I just didn't have the 47 . Just then I heard the man at the machine next to mine 48 . He only had a few items but every time he put his 49 twenty dollar bill into the machine it spit it back out. I quickly 50 a newer twenty out of my wallet and gave it to him. He thanked me with a 51 smile. I told him to keep his money but he 52 that l take his old twenty.
After 53 I remembered something, Mother Teresa had once said about how we all can 54 the world. “Help one person at a time," she said. “And always start with the person nearest you." I smiled and went outside. Then I dropped that old twenty into the 55 and walked to my car.

【答案】41-45 ACDCB 46-50 DABDC 51-55 BADCB
【解析】本文主要讲述了作者在疫情中随儿子去商店买吃的，顺手帮助了一位因纸币太旧而无法付款的男人的故事。
第41题 A 前后呼应。从第二段“soon filled our cart with food”可知，作者他们去超市是为了买吃的。所以这里应该选择“pick up another week‘s of food”，表示买另一周的食物。

第42题 C 形容词辨析。motivated/有动机的，convinced/确信的，divided/有分歧的，impressed/印象深刻的。从后文可知，这里应该填入疫情给人带来的影响，所以应该选择一个不是褒义词的形容词，也就是divided，形容人类在疫情中展示出来的不同对策和生活。

第43题 D 前后呼应。前文说的是疫情及其后果，所以这里应该选择一个表示负面情绪的词，也就是helpless/无助的。

第44题 C 理解句意。从常识可知，超市里面一般都有红十字会的募捐处，此处charity kettle也表达了相似的含义。所以作者应该是给了自己的儿子一美元，让他去捐赠。这种行为也与前文疫情的背景相互呼应。

第45题 B 从后文“prefer……the line……”可知，作者更喜欢人工结账，所以这里应该选择hate，表示对自助结账的讨厌之情。

第46题 D 名词辨析。customer/顾客，waiter/服务员，manager/经理，cashier/出纳员、收银员，从常识可知，超市人工台都是有收银员协助付款的，故选D。

第47题 A  从前文“the line at them was five deep”可知，收银台的队伍排得很长，因此作者没有足够的时间去排队。不选energy的原因是“精力不够”是不想排长队的间接原因，但一般都应该选择一个更直接的原因。

第48题 B 动词辨析。从后文可知，这个男人的钱总是塞不进机器里，所以在此处他应该在抱怨。pray/祈祷，bargain/讨价还价，均不符合句意。

第49题 D 形容词辨析。frozen/结冰的，folded/折叠的。broken/损坏的，wrinkled/皱巴巴的，这里不选折叠和损坏的原因是这个男人已经尝试了很多次，所以他肯定知道钞票需要平展、需要保持完整才能放入机器。wrinkled与此段最后一句的old相呼应。

第50题 C 考察动词。press/压，roll/滚，grab/抓，direct/指导，从后文可知作者给了他一张新的钞票，钞票是纸质的，因此只能用grab表示。

第51题 B 理解题。这个男人受到了帮助，因此他应该给予作者一个暖洋洋的微笑。weak/虚弱的，bitter/苦涩的，false/错误的。

第52题 A 动词辨析。ensure后面应该加一个事实，beg表示乞求不符合语境，order表示点餐不符合语境，所以应该选择insist，表示他“坚持认为”。

第53题 D 短语辨析。look out/寻觅，pull out/退出，break out/打破，check out/结账离开。联系前文，作者已经打算结帐了，所以这里选择check out最符合正常的行事逻辑。

第54题 C 从后文可知，Teresa认为“要从最近的那个人开始帮助”，这显然是一种可以改变世界的行为。这里不选择protect的原因是帮助别人并不是对世界本身的保护。保护世界更多的是一种绿色、和平、可持续的理念，与文章主题不符。

第55题 B 前后呼应，作者这里应该是将20美元扔进了第二段一开头就提及的“charity kettle”里，升华了文章“帮助他人”的主旨。

【答案】
56. a 57. polluters 58. produced 59. have collected 60. more complicated
61. preparation 62. that/which 63. meaning 64. with 65. to recycle
【解析】主题语境∶人与自然——环境保护
本文是新闻报道，俄罗斯的一个时尚品牌用回收的旧塑料做原料，制造各式各样的产品。
56. a 考查冠词。Concern在句中意为"令人担心的事"，是抽象名词具体化，且表泛指。句中的 roll on 意为"滚滚向前，流逝"。
57. polluters 考查名词复数。根据 one of 可知，此处需填名词的复数形式。polluter在此意为"污染源"。
58. produced 考查动词-ed 形式作定语的用法。设空处过去分词作后置定语修饰 waste，且 produce 与 waste之间是逻辑上的被动关系。
59. have collected 考查动词的时态现在完成时。根据后面的 so far 可知，此处要填 have collected。
60. more complicated 考查形容词的比较级。句中有 than。61. preparation 考查词性变化。介词 by后应加名词。
62. that/which 考查定语从句的关系词。先行词为 shapes and textiles，定语从句中缺主语。63. meaning 考查非谓语动词。作伴随状语，且表示情理之中的结果，所以用 doing 的形式。64. with 考查介词。along with，固定短语，表示"除了……之外还……"。
65. to recycle 考查非谓语动词。the way to do sth，"做某事的方式、方法"。

第二节 读后续写 （满分25分）
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。
"Pick up the pace!" said Amy's husband. "But I can't!" Amy said, her heart beating quickly inside. "I can't go any faster!Her husband encouraged her. "Yes, you can!You're making progress every day. "
To help Amy stay healthy, her husband had been running with her for over two years. Several years ago, Amy could barely walk down the stairs of her apartment building due to fatness caused by eating disorders. She realized the problem after a failed job interview and began walking to improve her ability to move. At first, she could walk for only 15 minutes at a time. But she pushed herself every day, walking 5 minutes longer than she did the day before until she walked for an hour and eventually two. For three years, Amy kept her walking habit, slowly and painstakingly building her body shape. Then she changed her walking shoes to running shoes about two years ago and became an excellent runner.
In March 2001，an advertisement invited people to nominate（提名）an ordinary person who inspired them to bring the Olympic flame to Salt Lake City as torch bearers（火炬手）or support runners. （Support runners serve as "guardians of the flame" and run with torch bearers along the journey. ）Amy's experiences touched her husband, so he nominated her to be a torch bearer. The possibility to be selected was low, but Amy wanted to try.
Running taught Amy the importance of training for a race. She pictured herself running a race and crossing the finish line. For months, she ran through her neighborhood carrying a broken-off broom handle, feeling the weight of the torch. She waved at her neighbors, pretending they were cheering crowds. She also printed a picture of a torch bearer wearing the white uniform, replaced the face with a picture of hers, and put it onto her refrigerator door.
Every day, Amy imagined herself as a torch bearer. She was training for a historic running event. On September 26th, while on her daily run through her neighborhood, an express package arrived.
注意：
1. 续写词数应为150左右；

Paragraph1：
Amy opened it and found a letter and a book on the Olympics. The letter read "Congratulations! You've been selected as a support runner for the Olympic Torch Relay. " Although she wouldn't be wearing the white uniform, she wasn't disappointed. 【高分句型一】She completed the required physical examination, delivered the forms and waited. Months later, another package arrived. It contained her official blue support runner uniform along with instructions for her part of the relay. Then on a cold day, Amy and her husband stood outside the Torch Relay collection point. （艾米看到信上写着自己被选为奥运火炬接力的助跑员。她完成体检几个月后，又来了一个包裹，里面是正式的蓝色助跑服，还有她那部分接力的说明，终于到了火炬接力的那一天）

Paragraph 2：
"One of today's torch bearers can't run her part, " announced the relay organizer. Then he said, "One lucky support runner will become a torch bearer. Select a person now. " Luckily, Amy became the torch bearer. Holding it tight, she ran down the street filled with people waving flags. 【高分句型二】The Olympic theme song was broadcast. Amy smiled and waved to the crowds, knowing that she was carrying not only the torch, but also the Olympic spirit. （艾米在挥舞着旗帜的人群中，跑去接过火炬，奥运主题曲播出了，艾米微笑着向人群挥手致意，她传递的不仅是火炬，还有奥林匹克精神）

【解析】本文为记叙文。几年前，艾米由于饮食失调导致肥胖，几乎走不下公寓楼的楼梯。在丈夫的帮助下，慢慢地恢复身材，并成为一名优秀的跑步运动员。在看了一则广告后，丈夫鼓励艾米去竞选奥运火炬手。为此，艾米把自己想象成火炬手一直为此训练，直到有一天，一个快递包到达。

高分句型二：Holding it tight, she ran down the street filled with people waving flags.

W: Isn’t that boring?
M: Of course not!

Text 3
M: Are you ready to go shopping?

W: Have you checked with Marsha?

W: I’ve heard of that. Isn’t it a bit boring?

Text 10
M:  It feels like every time my mother and I start to have a conversation, it turns into an argument. We talk about something as simple as dinner plans and suddenly, she will push the conversation into World War III. She’ll talk about my lack of a bright future because I don’t plan to be a doctor. And much to her disappointment, I don’t want to do any job related to science, either. In fact, when I was pushed to say that I planned to major in English, she nearly had a heart attack.
     “Why can’t you be like my co-worker’s son Andrew?” she complains all the time. Her co-worker’s son received a four-year scholarship and is now earning 70,000 dollars a year as an engineer. I don’t know what to answer except that I simply can’t be like Mr. Perfect as I’ve called the co-worker’s son. I’m the type of person who loves to help out in the community, write until the sun goes down, and most of all, wants to achieve a career because I love it, not because of fame or salary.
