B
Sometimes the simple act of being outside every day can be good to you. We often forget about what nature has to offer by staying inside too much. Going outside, you’ll probably be exposed to numerous sensations. You might hear the crinkle of leaves under your feet, concentrate on how the breeze cools your skin, and feel the sun offering its natural warmth.
Time outside also reminds you how you share your time on Earth with countless creatures and that you must live in harmony with them. The more often you encounter animals in their natural habitats, the easier it will be to recall why it’s so important to treat the outdoors with respect. After coming in contact with a squirrel, for example, you may be especially careful to throw your trash away in the nearest garbage can in case of some harmful leftover food. That’s because you’ve just been reminded that you’re not the only living thing to come in contact with what’s now rubbish.
Spending too much time indoors may cause us to become too isolated from others, especially if we use up much time in front of computer screens. It seems that a computer connected to the Internet allows you to share parts of your world with other people, but actually it can also make us feel more disconnected from others for lack of face-to-face communication. The time outside with a loved one allows you to take part in a shared experience. For instance, you can call attention to a type of flower that’s just started blooming and allow your companions to marvel at its beauty. That’s a similar shared experience.
Anyhow, it is not as hard as you might imagine. You may just decide to start an outdoor practice that takes you outside for a certain amount of time, preferably every day. The last 15 minutes of your lunch break strolling outside with a friend and some after-dinner family time discussing your days can be good options. Get off the computer and head outside! You’ll feel how your choice pays off.
4. According to paragraph 1, going outside offers an opportunity for people to ________.
A. enjoy sensory experience B. bring back distant memories
C. achieve better concentration D. participate in simple activities
5. Why does the author mention a squirrel in paragraph 2?
A. To present the means of feeding animals.
B. To show the consequence of littering trash.
C To stress the significance of experiencing nature.
D. To discuss the possibility of encountering wildlife.
6. According to the passage, those spending most time indoors may suffer from ________.
A. attention disorder B. loneliness attack
C. Internet addiction D. communication barrier
7. Which of the following is the best title?
A. Time Outside Involves A Shared Experience
B. Too Much Time Indoors Does Great Harm
C. Going Outdoors Gives A Different Perspective
D. A Daily Exposure to Nature Makes a Difference
【答案】4. A 5. C 6. B 7. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要讲述了经常做户外活动对人的好处。
【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中“Going outside, you’ll probably be exposed to numerous sensations. You might hear the crinkle of leaves under your feet, concentrate on how the breeze cools your skin, and feel the sun offering its natural warmth.(走到户外,你可能会接触到许多感觉。你可能会听到脚下树叶的褶皱声,专注于微风如何让你的皮肤凉爽,感受阳光带来的自然温暖)”可知,外出为人们提供了享受感官体验的机会。故选A项。
【5题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段中“Time outside also reminds you how you share your time on Earth with countless creatures and that you must live in harmony with them. The more often you encounter animals in their natural habitats, the easier it will be to recall why it’s so important to treat the outdoors with respect. After coming in contact with a squirrel, for example, you may be especially careful to throw your trash away in the nearest garbage can in case of some harmful leftover food.(户外的时间也会提醒你如何与地球上无数的生物分享你的时间,你必须与它们和谐相处。你在动物的自然栖息地遇到的动物越多,就越容易回想起为什么尊重户外是如此重要。例如,在与松鼠接触后,你可能会特别小心地把垃圾扔到最近的垃圾桶里,以防一些有害的剩余食物)”可知,作者在第二段提到一只松鼠是为了举例说明强调体验自然的重要性。故选C。
【6题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中“Spending too much time indoors may cause us to become too isolated from others, especially if we use up much time in front of computer screens. It seems that a computer connected to the Internet allows you to share parts of your world with other people, but actually it can also make us feel more disconnected from others for lack of face-to-face communication.(花太多时间在室内可能会导致我们与他人过于孤立,特别是如果我们花太多时间在电脑屏幕前。看起来,连接到互联网的电脑可以让你与他人分享你的世界,但实际上,它也会让我们感到与他人更加脱节,因为缺乏面对面的交流)”可推知,那些花大部分时间在室内的人可能会感到孤独。故选B项。
【7题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段“Sometimes the simple act of being outside every day can be good to you. We often forget about what nature has to offer by staying inside too much. Going outside, you’ll probably be exposed to numerous sensations. You might hear the crinkle of leaves under your feet, concentrate on how the breeze cools your skin, and feel the sun offering its natural warmth.(有时候,每天呆在户外这个简单的行为对你是有好处的。我们经常因为呆在室内太久而忘记了大自然的恩赐。走到户外,你可能会接触到许多感觉。你可能会听到脚下树叶的褶皱声,专注于微风如何让你的皮肤变凉,感受阳光带来的自然温暖)”以及最后一段“Anyhow, it is not as hard as you might imagine. You may just decide to start an outdoor practice that takes you outside for a certain amount of time, preferably every day.(不管怎样,这并不像你想象的那么难。你可能只是决定开始一项户外练习,让你在户外呆一定的时间,最好是每天)”可知,本文主要说的是去户外对人的好处,用心感受自然,会发现自然每天的都不同,所以本文最好的标题是D项“每天接触大自然会有所不同”。故选D项。
C
Two women in their 50s stand beholding in front of Guanyin of the South China Sea, an ancient Chinese sculpture in the Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art in Kansas City, Missouri. Over the past 20 years, they have been visiting the museum, describing the “mother Buddha” as “beautiful and tranquil, a symbol of religious traditions in China”. Measuring 2.4 meters high, 1.68 meters wide and 1.1 meters thick, the larger-than-life sculpture was carved from the trunk of a single poplar tree, which has created a sense of calm and warmth in the hall.
Since its launch in 1933, the museum has been actively collecting, preserving, studying and exhibiting works of Chinese art, ranging from ceramics to furniture, and from paintings to sculptures. And its Chinese art collection contains masterpieces in various historical stages.
An exhibition on the theme of Lively Creatures—Animals in Chinese Art was held at the museum, displaying tens of Chinese ancient paintings with images of animals in many art forms. The creatures on the paintings represented celebration, personal messages, and even political and religious agendas.
Organizers of the exhibition produced a set of cards, with images of animals on one side and their cultural meanings in Chinese artistic tradition on the other. The cards are provided for visitors for free.
“I find it very interesting, and the way that the things are drawn is very cool,” says 17-year-old high school student Camden Lombard after visiting the exhibition. “I want to go to China someday to find more,” he adds.
“It’s kind of eye-opening and we’re bringing the world together,” says Makar, an educator with the school outreach and education programs of the museum. “There are so many similarities as well as beautiful differences, and we are just trying to understand and appreciate one another.”
“We’re in a moment when it’s sometimes hard to look outside of your own personal viewpoints,” says Howard, manager of volunteer engagement at the museum. “I think having access to seeing what other cultures have created, what they valued and appreciated, and what was important to them, is really important in building that understanding about all the people we share this planet with.”
8. The two women kept visiting the Nelson-Atkins Museum for ________.
A. the grand appearance of the exhibition hall
B. their affection for Chinese religious traditions
C. the great size of the ancient Chinese sculpture
D. their curiosity about the delicate artistic carving
9. What can we learn about the exhibition Lively Creatures?
A. The organizers gained a handsome profit.
B. The cards reflected multinational cultures.
C. The visitors had rich travel experiences in China.
D. The paintings displayed the charm of Chinese culture.
10. How does Makar describe the visit to the museum?
A. Instructive and romantic. B. Imaginary and fascinating.
C. Informative and multicultural. D. Educational and entertaining.
11. What’s the purpose of setting up the museum according to Howard?
A. To bridge different cultures. B. To popularize religious symbols.
C. To exchange personal viewpoints. D. To demonstrate Chinese paintings.
【答案】8. B 9. D 10. C 11. A
【解析】

The creatures on the paintings represented celebration, personal messages, and even political and religious agendas.(博物馆以“活泼的生物——中国艺术中的动物”为主题举办了一场展览,展出了数十幅中国古代绘画作品,其中动物形象以多种艺术形式出现。画上的生物代表庆祝、个人信息,甚至政治和宗教议程。)”和第四段“Organizers of the exhibition produced a set of cards, with images of animals on one side and their cultural meanings in Chinese artistic tradition on the other. (展览组织者制作了一套卡片,一边是动物的图像,另一边是它们在中国艺术传统中的文化意义。)”可推断,Lively Creatures—Animals in Chinese Art展览展出的绘画展示了中国文化的魅力。故选D。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第二段的“‘It’s kind of eye-opening and we’re bringing the world together,’ says Makar, an educator with the school outreach and education programs of the museum. ‘There are so many similarities as well as beautiful differences, and we are just trying to understand and appreciate one another.’(“这有点让人大开眼界,我们把世界连在了一起,”负责博物馆学校外展和教育项目的教育工作者马卡尔说。“我们有很多相似之处,也有很多美丽的不同点,我们只是在努力理解和欣赏彼此。”)”可知,马卡尔认为博物馆的展览让人大开眼界,不同的文化有相似也有不同,增进彼此的理解和欣赏。因此推断他认为参观博物馆是信息丰富并且多元化的。故选C。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段Howard说的话“I think having access to seeing what other cultures have created, what they valued and appreciated, and what was important to them, is really important in building that understanding about all the people we share this planet with. (我认为,有机会了解其他文化创造了什么,他们重视和欣赏什么,以及对他们来说重要的是什么,这对于建立与我们共享这个星球的所有人的理解非常重要。)”可知,Howard认为通过参观博物馆可以让人们了解其他文化,因此推断他认为建立博物馆可以在不同文化之间架起桥梁。故选A。
D
When Thomas Edison hit a wall with his inventions, he would nap in an armchair while holding a steel ball. As he started to fall asleep and his muscles relaxed, the ball would strike the floor, waking him with insights into his problems. Or so the story goes.
Thomas Edison was somewhat right. Now, more than 100 years later, scientists have repeated the trick in a lab, revealing that the famous inventor was on to something. People following his recipe tripled their chances of solving a math problem. The trick was to wake up in the transition between sleep and wakefulness, just before deep sleep. In this transitional period, we are not quite awake, but also not deeply asleep. It can be as short as a minute and occurs right when we start to doze off.
Researchers recruited more than 100 easy sleepers, each of whom was given a math test with a hidden rule for the answer. By recording brain activity, they found that those who napped and were interrupted during the first phase of sleep were three times better at finding the hidden key to the problem than those who remained awake.
The creative effect happened even for people who spent just 15 seconds in the first sleep stage. But the trick didn’t work for those who reached later stages of sleep. “Our findings suggest there is a creative sweet spot during sleep onset,” says author Delphine Oudiette, a sleep researcher at the Paris Brain Institute. “It is a small window which can disappear if you wake up too early or sleep too deep.”
The study team also identified a brain activity pattern linked to the creativity-boosting phase: moderate levels of brain waves at a slow frequency known as alpha, associated with relaxation, and low levels of delta waves, a hallmark of deep sleep. Oudiette says researchers can now focus on this brain signature when investigating the neural mechanisms (神经机制) of creative problem-solving. The team has already planned an experiment to help people reach a creative zone by monitoring their brain waves in real time.“ Edison was great”, Oudiette says, “and now we have a lot more to explore.”
12 What does the underlined phrase “was on to something” in paragraph 2 probably mean?
A. Discovered the truth. B. Was absorbed in math puzzles.
C. Started the experiment. D. Was engaged in laboratory work.
13. According to the research, the trick of promoting creativity lies in ________.
A. gaining adequate deep sleep B. discovering the hidden rules of problems
C. following Edison’s life style D. waking up right after nodding off to sleep
14. Why did the researchers record brain activity of the sleepers?
A. To evaluate their sleep efficiency. B. To measure their amount of sleep.
C. To assess their levels of intelligence. D. To compare their creative thinking abilities.
15. What is paragraph 5 mainly about?
A. Supporting evidence for the research results.
B. Potential application of the research findings
C. A further explanation of the research methods.
D. A reasonable doubt about the research process.
【答案】12. A 13. D 14. D 15. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要讲述了研究人员通过复现爱迪生的方法发现,在打盹后马上醒来能促进人的创造力。
【12题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第二段中“Thomas Edison was somewhat right. Now, more than 100 years later, scientists have repeated the trick in a lab, revealing that the famous inventor was on to something. People following his recipe tripled their chances of solving a math problem. (托马斯·爱迪生多少是对的。现在,100多年后,科学家们在实验室里重复了这个把戏,揭示出这位著名的发明家was on to something。按照他的方法,人们解决数学问题的几率增加了三倍)”可推知,前面说科学家们重复了这个把戏,后又说按照他的方法,人们解决数学问题的几率增加了三倍,所以此处表示爱迪生确实找到了一种方法。由此推知,划线词组was on to something和Discovered the truth.(发现了真相)意思相近。故选A项。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“The trick was to wake up in the transition between sleep and wakefulness, just before deep sleep. In this transitional period, we are not quite awake, but also not deeply asleep. It can be as short as a minute and occurs right when we start to doze off.(诀窍是在睡眠和清醒之间的过渡阶段醒来,就在深度睡眠之前。在这个过渡时期,我们不是完全清醒,但也不是深睡。它可能只有一分钟,就发生在我们开始打瞌睡的时候)”以及第三段中“By recording brain activity, they found that those who napped and were interrupted during the first phase of sleep were three times better at finding the hidden key to the problem than those who remained awake.(通过记录大脑活动,他们发现那些在睡眠第一阶段被打断的人在找到问题隐藏的关键方面比那些保持清醒的人好三倍)”以及第四段中“The creative effect happened even for people who spent just 15 seconds in the first sleep stage. But the trick didn’t work for those who reached later stages of sleep. (即使在第一阶段只睡了15秒的人也会产生创造性的效果。但这个把戏对进入睡眠后期的人不起作用)”可知,促进创造力的诀窍在于在打盹后马上醒来。故选D项。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中“By recording brain activity, they found that those who napped and were interrupted during the first phase of sleep were three times better at finding the hidden key to the problem than those who remained awake.(通过记录大脑活动,他们发现那些在睡眠第一阶段被打断的人在找到问题隐藏的关键方面比那些保持清醒的人好三倍)”可知,研究人员记录睡眠者的大脑活动是为了比较他们的创造性思维能力。故选D项。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第五段中“The study team also identified a brain activity pattern linked to the creativity-boosting phase: moderate levels of brain waves at a slow frequency known as alpha, associated with relaxation, and low levels of delta waves, a hallmark of deep sleep. Oudiette says researchers can now focus on this brain signature when investigating the neural mechanisms of creative problem-solving. The team has already planned an experiment to help people reach a creative zone by monitoring their brain waves in real time.(研究团队还发现了一种与创造力提升阶段相关的大脑活动模式:与放松有关的被称为α的中等水平的慢频率脑电波,以及深度睡眠的标志——低水平的δ波。Oudiette说,当研究创造性解决问题的神经机制时,研究人员现在可以专注于这种大脑信号。该团队已经计划进行一项实验,通过实时监测人们的脑电波,帮助人们进入创造性区域)”可知,第五段主要讲了研究成果的潜在应用,能帮助人们进入创造性区域。故选B项。

【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要讲述了长期友谊的好处,以及如何发展一段新的友谊,并且注意,该结束的友谊就应果断结束。
【16题详解】
根据前文“You’ll make new friends in each stage of your life. Some of them will come and go, while others will last for the rest of your life.(你会在人生的每个阶段交到新朋友。其中一些会来了又走,而另一些会伴随你的余生)”结合下文陈述持长期友谊的好处,以及如何保持长期的友谊,所以空处应是引出长期朋友的话题,所以A项“Lifelong friendships are what most people desire.(一生的友谊是大多数人所渴望的)”符合文意。故选A项。
【17题详解】
根据前文“There are many benefits of having strong friendships. According to experts, many people regret not keeping friendships going and end up living a life with no close friends or even enduring mental and physical sufferings.(拥有牢固的友谊有很多好处。据专家称,许多人后悔没有维持友谊,最终过着没有亲密朋友的生活,甚至忍受着精神和身体上的痛苦)”以及后文“People who have healthy friendships tend to enjoy life more and may even live longer.(拥有健康友谊的人往往更享受生活,甚至可能活得更长)”可知,本段主要在讲保持健康友谊的好处和重要性,所以E项“So making time for your friendships is vital to a healthy life.(因此,为友谊腾出时间对健康生活至关重要)”符合文意,起到承上启下的作用。故选E项。
【18题详解】
根据后文“There are a lot of ways to make new friends that can stay with you for the rest of your life. Look for people who share things with you. If you have kids, join a mom’s group, or sign your child up for classes where you’ll naturally meet other parents.(有很多方法可以交到可以陪伴你一生的新朋友。寻找和你有共同爱好的人。如果你有孩子,加入一个妈妈的小组,或者为你的孩子报班,在那里你自然会遇到其他父母)”可知,此处是在讲如何交到可以陪伴你一生的新朋友。所以C项“If you are lacking in good friendships, it’s not too late.(如果你缺乏好的友谊,现在还不晚)”符合文意,引出下文。故选C项。
【19题详解】
根据前文“If you have kids, join a mom’s group, or sign your child up for classes where you’ll naturally meet other parents.(如果你有孩子,加入一个妈妈的小组,或者为你的孩子报班,在那里你自然会遇到其他父母)”以及后文“You share your career and will have a lot to talk about while also having built-in opportunities to spend time with each other.(你们分享自己的事业,会有很多可聊的话题,同时也有内在的机会花时间在彼此身上)”可知,上文陈述和父母交朋友,下文陈述分享自己的事业,由此推知,我们还可以与同事交朋友。所以D项“You can also make friends with people you work with.(你也可以和同事交朋友)”符合文意。故选D项。
【20题详解】
根据前文“Sometimes it’s a good idea to let a friendship go, even if you’ve been friends for a long time. If one party isn’t making an effort to keep things going, it can lead to feelings of hurt and betrayal, and it might be time to let things cool off and pursue other friendships. (有时候,结束一段友谊是个好主意,即使你们已经做了很长时间的朋友。如果一方不努力维持关系,可能会导致受伤和背叛的感觉,可能是时候让事情冷静下来,追求其他友谊了)”可知,此处是在讲必要时结束一段友谊。由此推知,空处陈述这样做的原因。所以G项“While this can be sad, it can actually improve your quality of life.(虽然这可能令人难过,但它实际上可以提高你的生活质量)”符合文意,且与下文“Besides, it can encourage you to focus on the partnerships that are healthy and where both of you are committed to keeping it going for your entire life.(此外,它可以鼓励你专注于健康的伙伴关系,以及你们两人都致力于终生保持这种关系的伙伴关系)”构成并列关系。故选G项。

【36题详解】
考查形容词。句意:马鸣村距离乌镇30分钟车程,与著名的旅游目的地截然相反。分析句子结构可知,空后是名词destinations,所以空处应填形容词,tour的形容词是tourist。故填tourist。
【37题详解】
考查冠词。句意:时间在村子里似乎静止不动,对于想要真正体验乡村生活的旅行者来说,它是一个完美的一日游目的地。分析句子结构可知,experience意为“经历”时,为可数名词,本句用的单数,所以前应用不定冠词修饰,authentic为元音音素开头,应用冠词an。故填an。
【38题详解】
考查状语从句连接词。句意:虽然大多数人凌晨3点还在睡觉,但涂元庆和他的父亲已经站了起来,摆好杯子,烧水,为茶馆准备茶叶。分析句子结构,根据句意可知,空处引导让步状语从句,应填although或者though或者while意为“尽管,虽然”之意。故填Although或者Though或者While。
【39题详解】
考查名词。句意:虽然大多数人凌晨3点还在睡觉,但涂元庆和他的父亲已经站了起来,摆好杯子,烧水,为茶馆准备茶叶。分析句子结构可知,此处为固定搭配:tea leaf意为“茶叶”为可数名词,此处应该用复数形式。故填leaves。

【41题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:大约凌晨4点。在这里,大多数60岁以上的老年人一边喝着茶,一边愉快地聊天,是一个活跃的场所。分析句子结构可知,当while引导的从句中的主语跟主句的主语是同一个人或物时,这是while引导的从句中的主语和be动词可省略,此处while引导的时间状语从句,主语都是elderly residents,while引导的从句应用现在进行时,所以主语和be动词省略。故填chatting。
【42题详解】
考查动词语态。句意:一些村民还在一个只有一个灯泡的小房间里打麻将。分析句子结构可知,本句缺少谓语,所以find做本句的谓语动词,和主语villagers之间是被动关系,应该用被动语态,又空前是情态动词can,所以后应接动词原形。故填be found。
【43题详解】
考查名词。句意:并不是说没有人真正关心竞争。分析句子结构可知,空前是冠词the后接名词,所以空处应填名词,compete的名词是competition。故填competition。
