John von Neumann was the oldest of 3 children of a banker, and his speed of learning new ideas and of solving problems stood out early .At 17, his father tried to persuade him not to become a mathematician because he may lead a poor life being a mathematician, and so von Neumann agreed to study chemlstry as well. In 1926, at 23, be received a degree in chemical engineering and a Ph.D. in mathematics. From then on, mathematics provided well enough for him, and he never had to turn to chemistry.
In 1930, von Neumann visited Princeton University for a year and then became a professor there. His first book was published in 1932. In 1933, the Insdtute for Advanced Study wat formed, and be became one of the 6 full-time people in the School of Mathematics (Einstein was one of the others).
World War II hugely changed von Neumann's areas of interest. Until 1940 he had been a great pure (纯粹的）mathematician. During and after the war, he became one of the best mathematicians who put mathematics theories into practice. During the last part of the war he became interested in computing machines and made several fundamental contributions. After the war von Neumann continued his work with computers, and was generally very active in government service. He received many awards, was president of the American Mathematical Society and was a member of the Atomic Energy Commission. He died in 1957 of cancer.

Feeling a bit bored? It could be just what you need to produce your best ideas, excite your creativity or simply give your brain a rest.
Nowadays, in the age of round-the-clock entertainment, it’s (technically) trickier to be bored. If the show you’re watching has lost its spark, you can easily amuse yourself on social media without even leaving the sofa. But that’s not necessarily a good thing. Feeling disengaged from the task in hand, or a lack of stimulation (刺激), does have its benefits, according to researchers at the University of Central Lancashire.
Being bored motivates you to search out something less boring to do. For example, if you decide there’s nothing worth watching on TV, you might choose to switch off and take up a new hobby. This, according to researchers, can explain why the lockdowns of the past two years saw a surge (激增) in creativity among people stuck at home from banana-bread-making to picking up a paintbrush for the first time since childhood.
But what about those times when you have no choice but to stick with the boring situation, waiting for a bus, for instance? The good news is that the boredom you’re feeling now could spark your creativity later, says a 2019 study published in the Academy of Management Discoveries journal. People who’d taken part in a bean-sorting task later performed better at coming up with creative ideas than another group who’d been given something more interesting to do first.
Ultimately, don’t take it for granted that there’ll always be something close at hand to entertain us. With boredom, we will not run the risk of becoming boring ourselves.
8. What does the author imply in paragraph 2?
A. Wondering mind can be healthy.
B. Social media can surely entertain us.
C. Being bored may be something good.
D. Being involved in the task is beneficial.
9. Why was the surge in creativity seen recently?
A. People were stimulated by boredom.
B. People were better equipped at home.
C. People had more hobbies to choose from.
D. People were more concerned about mental being.
10. What is the purpose of the bean-sorting task in the 2019 study?
A. To create a boring situation. B. To reduce people’s boredom.
C. To make a funny performance. D. To show an entertainment at hand.
11. What is the best title of the passage?
A. What is the point of creativity?
B. Are we more easily bored nowadays?
C. How can we deal with daily boredom?
D. Does boredom make us more creative?
【答案】8. C 9. A 10. A 11. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了通过一系列的研究实验发现无聊可以激发创造力。
【8题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段“Feeling disengaged from the task in hand, or a lack of stimulation , does have its benefits, according to researchers at the University of Central Lancashire.（中央兰开夏大学的研究人员表示，对手头工作感到心不在焉或缺乏刺激确实有好处。）”可推断，作者在第二段中暗示了无聊可能是件好事。故选C。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“For example, if you decide there’s nothing worth watching on TV, you might choose to switch off and take up a new hobby.This, according to researchers, can explain why the lockdowns of the past two years saw a surge in creativity among people stuck at home from banana-bread-making to picking up a paintbrush for the first time since childhood.（例如，如果你觉得没有什么值得看的电视节目，你可以选择关掉它，培养新的爱好。研究人员表示，这可以解释为什么在过去两年的封锁中，到童年以来首次拿起画笔的人们的创造力激增。）”可知，无聊刺激了人们使得人们出现了创造力的激增。故选A。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段“People who’d taken part in a bean-sorting task later performed better at coming up with creative ideas than another group who’d been given something more interesting to do first.（那些后来参与了豆子分类任务的人比另一组先做更有趣的事情的人在想出创意方面表现得更好。）”可知，这个实验室为了证明无聊可以激发创造力，所以推断2019年研究中的豆类分类任务的目的是创造一个无聊的环境。故选A。
11题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段“Feeling a bit bored? It could be just what you need to produce your best ideas, excite your creativity or simply give your brain a rest.（感觉有点无聊?它可能正是你所需要的，让你产生最好的想法，激发你的创造力，或者只是让你的大脑休息一下。）”及全文可知，本文主要介绍了通过一系列的研究实验发现无聊可以激发创造力。所以“Does boredom make us more creative?(无聊让我们更有创造力吗?)”作为文章标题最为合适。故选D。
D
With the young unable to afford to leave home and the old at risk of isolation(孤独) more families are choosing to live together.
The doorway to peace and quiet, for Nick Bright at least, leads straight to his mother-in-law, she lives on the ground floor, while he lives upstairs with his wife and their two daughters.
Four years ago they all moved into a three-storey Victorian house in Bristol-one of a growing number of multigenerational families in the UK living together under the same roof. They share a front door and a washing machine but Rita Whitehead has her own kitchen, bathroom, bedroom and living room on the ground floor.
“We floated the idea to my mum of sharing at a house,” says Kathryn Whitehead. Rita cuts in: “We spoke more with Nick because I think it’s a big thing for Nick to live with his mother-in-law.”
And what does Nick think? “From my standpoint, it all seems to work very well. Would I recommend it? Yes, I think I would.”
It’s hard to tell exactly how many people agree with him, but research indicates that the numbers have been rising for some time. Official reports suggest that the number of households with three generations living together had risen from 325,000 in 2001to 419,000 in 2013.
Other varieties of multigenerational family are more common. Some people live with their elderly parents; many more adult children are returning to the family home, if they ever left. It is said that about 20% of 25-34-year-olds live with their parents, compared with 16% in 1991. The total number of all multigenerational households in Britain is thought to be about 1.8 million.
Stories like that are more common in parts of the world where multigenerational living is more firmly rooted. In India, particularly outside cities, young women are expected to move in with their husband’s family when they get married.
12 Who mainly uses the ground floor in the Victorian house in Bristol?
A. Rita. B. Nick. C. Kathryn D. The daughters.
13. What is Nick’s attitude towards sharing the house with his mother-in-law?
A. Negative. B. Tolerant. C. Positive. D. Unwilling.
14. What is the author’s statement about multigenerational family based on?
A. Family traditions. B. Financial reports.
C. Public opinions. D. Published statistics.
15. What is the text mainly about?
A. A rising trend of living in the UK. B. Conflicts between generations.
C. A housing problem in Britain. D. Lifestyles in different countries.
【答案】12. A 13. C 14. D 15. A
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇新闻报道。短文报道了在英国，由于年轻人负担不起离家的费用，而老年人又面临着空巢孤独的风险，越来越多的家庭选择住在一起，出现了多世同堂的现象。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“but Rita Whitehead has her own kitchen, bathroom, bedroom and living room on the ground floor. (但是Rita在一楼有自己的厨房、浴室、卧室和客厅)”由此可知，Rita 在布里斯托尔的维多利亚式住宅中住一楼。故选A项.
【13题详解】
观点态度题。根据第五段“And what does Nick think? “From my standpoint, it all seems to work very well. Would I recommend it? Yes, I think I would.” (那么Nick是怎么想的呢？“在我看来，一切都很融洽。我会推荐这样做吗？是的，我认为我会的”)”可知，尼克对和和岳母合住在一起的态度是积极的。故选C项。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据第六段“Official reports suggest that the number of households with three generations living together had risen from 325,000 in 2001to 419,000 in 2013. (官方报告显示，三代同堂的家庭数量从2001年的32.5万户增长到2013年的41.9万户)”和第七段“It is said that about 20% of 25-34-year-olds live with their parents, compared with 16% in 1991.The total number of all multigenerational households in Britain is thought to be about 1.8 million. (据说，25-34岁的年轻人中有20%和父母住在一起，而1991年这一比例仅为16%。据估计，英国多代同堂的家庭总数约为180万)” 可知，作者关于几世同堂家庭的论述是基于公布的统计数据。故选D项。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题，通读全文，尤其根据第一段“With the young unable to afford to leave home and the old at risk of isolation(孤独), more families are choosing to live together. (如今年轻人没有经济能力独自居住，而老人可能也会感到孤独，更多的家庭选择几代人住在一起)”可知，这篇文章主要描述近些年来英国家庭生活方式的一种变化趋势。故选A项。
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。
If you've been feeling a lot sleepy in your daily life, here are some tips to picking up your energy levels. But first, you should make sure if you're experiencing some serious illnesses. ___16___, keep these tips in mind.
The first recommendation is to exercise. Although it may seem difficult to work out when you're tired, it turns out that physical activity can actually give you more energy. The second thing to work on is to go to sleep early enough to get a full night's sleep, preferably so that you wake up naturally without the need for your alarm. ____17____. Thus, another useful tip is to take a nap during the afternoon. Naps can restore your mind and body without taking up too much time, regaining your energy and raising working efficiency. The best length of time for a nap is about 20 minutes. Shorter, and you won't get much out of it. ___18___ .
___19___. Drinking plenty of water and fluids throughout the day is one important way to stay energized, since dehydration （脱水）leaves us in low sprits. Some experts say that eating smaller meals more often throughout the day can help maintain energy and balance blood sugar levels. Be aware also that people who are overweight are more likely to experience tiredness easily. ___20___ , reducing extra weight could help you gain more energy.
A. If you're overweight
B. If you feel uncomfortable
C. As you know, it is quite a good habit
D. However, this goal is hard to achieve in practice
E. longer, and you may find it harder to sleep at night
F. If you're otherwise healthy but just need some extra energy
G. Other ways to increase energy involve our diet and consumption
【答案】16. F 17. D 18. E 19. G 20. A
【解析】
【分析】本文是说明文。这篇文章介绍了人们在日常生活中应对疲劳的几种方式。
【16题详解】
考查段中句。根据空前“But first, you should make sure if you're experiencing some serious illnesses.（首先，你应该确定你是否患有一些严重的疾病。）”和空后“keep these tips in mind.（记住这些提示。）”可知，F项（如果你身体健康但需要额外的能量）能够承接上文并且与下文连接通顺。故选F项。
【17题详解】
考查段中句。根据空前“The second thing to work on is to go to sleep early enough to get a full night's sleep, preferably so that you wake up naturally without the need for your alarm.（第二件事要做的是早点睡觉，这样可以睡一整晚，早晨最好自然醒来而不需要闹钟。）”和空后“Thus, another useful tip is to take a nap during the afternoon.（因此，另一个有用的建议是在下午小睡一会儿。）”可知，D项（然而，这一目标在实践中很难实现）能够承接上文并且与下文连接通顺。选项中的this goal指的是前一句中的“早晨不需要闹钟自然醒。”故选D项。
【18题详解】
考查段尾句。根据空前“The best length of time for a nap is about 20 minutes. Shorter, and you won't get much out of it.（再短一点，你就没什么收获了）”可知，E项(再长一点，你可能会发现晚上很难入睡）能够承接上文。选项与前一句的句式结构是相同的。故选E项。
【19题详解】
考查段首句。根据空后“Drinking plenty of water and fluids throughout the day is one important way to stay energized, since dehydration leaves us in low sprits.（每天多喝水等液体饮品是保持活力的一个重要途径，因为脱水会让我们情绪低落。）”可知，G项（其他增加活力的方法包括我们的饮食和饭食）能够与下文连接通顺。后文的water和meals是对选项的具体举例。故选G项。
【20题详解】
考查段尾句。根据空前“Be aware also that people who are overweight are more likely to experience tiredness easily.（还要注意，体重超重的人更容易感到疲劳。）”可知，选择A项后整个句子意为“如果你超重，减少额外的体重可以帮助你获得更多的精力。能够承接上文。选项中的overweight与逗号后的extra weight是同义表达。故选A项。
【点睛】七选五的解题技巧之一是根据上下文词汇来锁定线索。即：要关注空白前后的名词和动词，然后在选项中查找它们的近义词、反义词、同义词、同类词等，看是否有同词复现以及相同的句式结构等。其次是一些专有名词，数词、代词、时间、年代、地点/名称等。在本文中，第2小题：选项中的this goal指的是前一句中的“早晨不需要闹钟自然醒”；第3小题：选项与前一句的句式结构是相同的；第5小题：选项中的overweight与逗号后的extra weight是同义表达。

【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章讲述了中国剪纸的起源和发展。
【56题详解】
考查非谓语。句意：中国剪纸或剪纸是最早的剪纸图案，可追溯到东汉。分析句子可知，逗号后的内容在句中为状语，短语：date back to“追溯到，起源于”，句子主语“Chinese paper cutting or jianzhi”与动词短语“date back to”为主谓关系，所以此处用现在分词，故填dating。

【60题详解】
考查一般现在时的被动语态。句意同上。分析句子可知，空处在句中为谓语，结合前文“the paper-cuts are used to decorate doors and windows”，所以此处的时态为一般现在时；句子主语they与动词短语refer to为动宾关系，所以此处用被动。故填are referred。
【61题详解】
考查介词。句意：中国人相信门上的红色剪纸能给全家带来好运和幸福。短语：bring sth. to sb.“把某物带给某人”，所以此处用介词to，故填to。
【62题详解】
考查名词复数。句意：人们在用剪纸表达最好的愿望中找到希望和安慰。主语people为集体性名词，表示复数含义，此处指人们表达他们的祝愿，所以空处用名词复数wishes，故填wishes。
【63题详解】
考查冠词。句意：一个大红纸（剪纸）字——喜(幸福)是新婚门上的一个传统必备字。character“汉字”为可数名词，此处指“喜”这个汉字，是泛指，应用不定冠词，且big的发音是辅音音素开头，应用a。位于句首，所以首字母大写。故填A。
64题详解】
考查非谓语。句意：随着中国剪纸的流行，我们可能永远不会感觉不到中国剪纸在世界各地的存在。分析可知，此处使用了with的复合结构；with+ 宾语+ 补语，宾语its popularity与动词increase为主谓关系，所以此处用现在分词increasing，故填increasing。
【65题详解】
考查非谓语。句意同上。短语：fail to do sth.“未能做某事”，所以此处用不定式to feel，故填to feel。

In 1930, von Neumann visited Princeton University for a year and then became a professor there. His first book was published in 1932. In 1933, the Insdtute for Advanced Study wat formed, and be became one of the 6 full-time people in the School of Mathematics (Einstein was one of the others).
World War II hugely changed von Neumann's areas of interest. Until 1940 he had been a great pure (纯粹的）mathematician. During and after the war, he became one of the best mathematicians who put mathematics theories into practice. During the last part of the war he became interested in computing machines and made several fundamental contributions. After the war von Neumann continued his work with computers, and was generally very active in government service. He received many awards, was president of the American Mathematical Society and was a member of the Atomic Energy Commission. He died in 1957 of cancer.
Von Neumann made several great contributions and any one of them would have been enough to earn him a firm place in history. He will be remembered as one of the greatest minds of the 20th century.
Von Neumann really was a legend (传奇)in his own time, and there are a number of stories about him. His driving ability is a part of this legend. He reported one accident this way: "I was driving down the road. The trees on the right were passing me in an orderly fashion at 60 miles per hour. Suddenly one of them stepped in my path”

Feeling a bit bored? It could be just what you need to produce your best ideas, excite your creativity or simply give your brain a rest.
Nowadays, in the age of round-the-clock entertainment, it’s (technically) trickier to be bored. If the show you’re watching has lost its spark, you can easily amuse yourself on social media without even leaving the sofa. But that’s not necessarily a good thing. Feeling disengaged from the task in hand, or a lack of stimulation (刺激), does have its benefits, according to researchers at the University of Central Lancashire.
Being bored motivates you to search out something less boring to do. For example, if you decide there’s nothing worth watching on TV, you might choose to switch off and take up a new hobby. This, according to researchers, can explain why the lockdowns of the past two years saw a surge (激增) in creativity among people stuck at home from banana-bread-making to picking up a paintbrush for the first time since childhood.
But what about those times when you have no choice but to stick with the boring situation, waiting for a bus, for instance? The good news is that the boredom you’re feeling now could spark your creativity later, says a 2019 study published in the Academy of Management Discoveries journal. People who’d taken part in a bean-sorting task later performed better at coming up with creative ideas than another group who’d been given something more interesting to do first.
Ultimately, don’t take it for granted that there’ll always be something close at hand to entertain us. With boredom, we will not run the risk of becoming boring ourselves.
8. What does the author imply in paragraph 2?
A. Wondering mind can be healthy.
B. Social media can surely entertain us.
C. Being bored may be something good.
D. Being involved in the task is beneficial.
9. Why was the surge in creativity seen recently?
A. People were stimulated by boredom.
B. People were better equipped at home.
C. People had more hobbies to choose from.
D. People were more concerned about mental being.
10. What is the purpose of the bean-sorting task in the 2019 study?
A. To create a boring situation. B. To reduce people’s boredom.
C. To make a funny performance. D. To show an entertainment at hand.
11. What is the best title of the passage?
A. What is the point of creativity?
B. Are we more easily bored nowadays?
C. How can we deal with daily boredom?
D. Does boredom make us more creative?
【答案】8. C 9. A 10. A 11. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了通过一系列的研究实验发现无聊可以激发创造力。

【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段“People who’d taken part in a bean-sorting task later performed better at coming up with creative ideas than another group who’d been given something more interesting to do first.（那些后来参与了豆子分类任务的人比另一组先做更有趣的事情的人在想出创意方面表现得更好。）”可知，这个实验室为了证明无聊可以激发创造力，所以推断2019年研究中的豆类分类任务的目的是创造一个无聊的环境。故选A。
11题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段“Feeling a bit bored? It could be just what you need to produce your best ideas, excite your creativity or simply give your brain a rest.（感觉有点无聊?它可能正是你所需要的，让你产生最好的想法，激发你的创造力，或者只是让你的大脑休息一下。）”及全文可知，本文主要介绍了通过一系列的研究实验发现无聊可以激发创造力。所以“Does boredom make us more creative?(无聊让我们更有创造力吗?)”作为文章标题最为合适。故选D。

With the young unable to afford to leave home and the old at risk of isolation(孤独) more families are choosing to live together.
The doorway to peace and quiet, for Nick Bright at least, leads straight to his mother-in-law, she lives on the ground floor, while he lives upstairs with his wife and their two daughters.
Four years ago they all moved into a three-storey Victorian house in Bristol-one of a growing number of multigenerational families in the UK living together under the same roof. They share a front door and a washing machine but Rita Whitehead has her own kitchen, bathroom, bedroom and living room on the ground floor.
“We floated the idea to my mum of sharing at a house,” says Kathryn Whitehead. Rita cuts in: “We spoke more with Nick because I think it’s a big thing for Nick to live with his mother-in-law.”
And what does Nick think? “From my standpoint, it all seems to work very well. Would I recommend it? Yes, I think I would.”
It’s hard to tell exactly how many people agree with him, but research indicates that the numbers have been rising for some time. Official reports suggest that the number of households with three generations living together had risen from 325,000 in 2001to 419,000 in 2013.
Other varieties of multigenerational family are more common. Some people live with their elderly parents; many more adult children are returning to the family home, if they ever left. It is said that about 20% of 25-34-year-olds live with their parents, compared with 16% in 1991. The total number of all multigenerational households in Britain is thought to be about 1.8 million.
Stories like that are more common in parts of the world where multigenerational living is more firmly rooted. In India, particularly outside cities, young women are expected to move in with their husband’s family when they get married.
12 Who mainly uses the ground floor in the Victorian house in Bristol?
A. Rita. B. Nick. C. Kathryn D. The daughters.
13. What is Nick’s attitude towards sharing the house with his mother-in-law?
A. Negative. B. Tolerant. C. Positive. D. Unwilling.
14. What is the author’s statement about multigenerational family based on?
A. Family traditions. B. Financial reports.
C. Public opinions. D. Published statistics.
15. What is the text mainly about?
A. A rising trend of living in the UK. B. Conflicts between generations.
C. A housing problem in Britain. D. Lifestyles in different countries.
【答案】12. A 13. C 14. D 15. A
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇新闻报道。短文报道了在英国，由于年轻人负担不起离家的费用，而老年人又面临着空巢孤独的风险，越来越多的家庭选择住在一起，出现了多世同堂的现象。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“but Rita Whitehead has her own kitchen, bathroom, bedroom and living room on the ground floor. (但是Rita在一楼有自己的厨房、浴室、卧室和客厅)”由此可知，Rita 在布里斯托尔的维多利亚式住宅中住一楼。故选A项.
【13题详解】
观点态度题。根据第五段“And what does Nick think? “From my standpoint, it all seems to work very well. Would I recommend it? Yes, I think I would.” (那么Nick是怎么想的呢？“在我看来，一切都很融洽。我会推荐这样做吗？是的，我认为我会的”)”可知，尼克对和和岳母合住在一起的态度是积极的。故选C项。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据第六段“Official reports suggest that the number of households with three generations living together had risen from 325,000 in 2001to 419,000 in 2013. (官方报告显示，三代同堂的家庭数量从2001年的32.5万户增长到2013年的41.9万户)”和第七段“It is said that about 20% of 25-34-year-olds live with their parents, compared with 16% in 1991.The total number of all multigenerational households in Britain is thought to be about 1.8 million. (据说，25-34岁的年轻人中有20%和父母住在一起，而1991年这一比例仅为16%。据估计，英国多代同堂的家庭总数约为180万)” 可知，作者关于几世同堂家庭的论述是基于公布的统计数据。故选D项。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题，通读全文，尤其根据第一段“With the young unable to afford to leave home and the old at risk of isolation(孤独), more families are choosing to live together. (如今年轻人没有经济能力独自居住，而老人可能也会感到孤独，更多的家庭选择几代人住在一起)”可知，这篇文章主要描述近些年来英国家庭生活方式的一种变化趋势。故选A项。

【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章讲述了中国剪纸的起源和发展。
【56题详解】
考查非谓语。句意：中国剪纸或剪纸是最早的剪纸图案，可追溯到东汉。分析句子可知，逗号后的内容在句中为状语，短语：date back to“追溯到，起源于”，句子主语“Chinese paper cutting or jianzhi”与动词短语“date back to”为主谓关系，所以此处用现在分词，故填dating。

【59题详解】

【62题详解】
考查名词复数。句意：人们在用剪纸表达最好的愿望中找到希望和安慰。主语people为集体性名词，表示复数含义，此处指人们表达他们的祝愿，所以空处用名词复数wishes，故填wishes。
【63题详解】
考查冠词。句意：一个大红纸（剪纸）字——喜(幸福)是新婚门上的一个传统必备字。character“汉字”为可数名词，此处指“喜”这个汉字，是泛指，应用不定冠词，且big的发音是辅音音素开头，应用a。位于句首，所以首字母大写。故填A。
64题详解】
考查非谓语。句意：随着中国剪纸的流行，我们可能永远不会感觉不到中国剪纸在世界各地的存在。分析可知，此处使用了with的复合结构；with+ 宾语+ 补语，宾语its popularity与动词increase为主谓关系，所以此处用现在分词increasing，故填increasing。
【65题详解】
考查非谓语。句意同上。短语：fail to do sth.“未能做某事”，所以此处用不定式to feel，故填to feel。
