M: It’s a shame about the tiny bathroom, though. The beds could’ve been softer, too.

Steph Clemence always intended to go to college. She had good grades and considered herself college bound. But life has a tendency to throw obstacles in the way. When her father died tragically in a car accident, leaving her mother to support three daughters on a modest income, paying for college became out of the question.
Around that time, Steph tried to figure out what to do with a life that had differed so much from the plan she’d carefully laid out. The answer came one afternoon when she was cleaning her bedroom closet and found a list from the English teacher she’d had in her junior year, Dorothy Clark. One afternoon, Mrs. Clark walked into the classroom carrying a stack of papers. She instructed each students to take one. The handout was titled Mrs. Clark’s Book List. “It wasn’t homework,” the teacher announced, “but it could be a road map. Some of you might not go on to higher education, but you can continue to learn.” It would, she believed, form the equivalent of two years at a liberal arts college.
“She knew the income levels of the kids in my high school,” says Steph. “Working-class and logging families. She knew most of us would not go to college. She was right. But she knew we could continue to learn after high school. She was also right about that.” Steph studied the list. Each of those books sparked her passion to learn more about the person, subject matter, or time in history. That made her look for other books that weren’t on the list, hoping to deepen her knowledge. Over the years, the reading list was a constant in her life, traveling with her even on vacations.
Now Steph is 70 and she never did get to college. But she has only four books left to read from the list. She expects to complete them sometime in 2023. “Each of the books has added something to who I am and how I see the world.” she says, “I now have gained an insight to see why things happened and what it might mean.”
24. What prevented Steph going to college?
A. Her bad grades.
B. Her low income.
C. The lack of financial support.
D. Her tragic accident.
25. Why did Mrs. Clark create the book list?
A. To prepare students for college.
B. To share her books with students.
C. To serve as a reading task for students.
D. To inspire students to continue learning.
26. How does Steph feel about the book list now?
A. Regretful.
B. Satisfied.
C Moved.
D. Determined.
27. What is the text mainly about?
A. An influential reading list.
B. An excellent reading habit.
C. An impressive English teacher.
D. A memorable experience in high school.
【答案】24. C 25. D 26. B 27. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了Steph因为没有钱而不能继续大学生活后，想起了老师曾经给她的读书清单，并终其一生在努力读这份清单上的书。
【24题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“When her father died tragically in a car accident, leaving her mother to support three daughters on a modest income, paying for college became out of the question.(当她的父亲在一场车祸中不幸去世时，她的母亲靠微薄的收入抚养三个女儿，支付大学学费成为不可能的事情)”可知，Steph不能上大学的原因是家中没有大学学费上的支持。故选C。
【25题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第二段“The handout was titled Mrs. Clark’s Book List. “It wasn’t homework,” the teacher announced, “but it could be a road map. Some of you might not go on to higher education, but you can continue to learn.” It would, she believed, form the equivalent of two years at a liberal arts college.(这份讲义的标题是克拉克夫人的书单。“这不是家庭作业，”老师宣布，“但它可以是一张路线图。你们中的一些人可能不会继续接受高等教育，但你们可以继续学习。”她相信，这相当于在文理学院学习两年)”可推断，克拉克夫人之所以给孩子们这份书单是为了激励孩子们继续学习。故选D。
【26题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章最后一段““Each of the books has added something to who I am and how I see the world.” she says, “I now have gained an insight to see why things happened and what it might mean.”(“每一本书都为我是谁以及我如何看待这个世界增添了一些东西。”她说：“我现在有了一种洞察力，可以看到事情为什么会发生，以及它可能意味着什么。”)”可推断，这份书单对Steph有着重要的意义，她从中获益不菲。由此推知，她对于这份书单是满意的。故选B。
【27题详解】
主旨大意题。根据文章倒数第二段“Over the years, the reading list was a constant in her life, traveling with her even on vacations. (多年来，这份读书清单一直陪伴在她的生活中，甚至在度假时也会跟着她旅行)”、最后一段““Each of the books has added something to who I am and how I see the world.” she says, “I now have gained an insight to see why things happened and what it might mean.”(“每一本书都为我是谁以及我如何看待这个世界增添了一些东西。”她说：“我现在有了一种洞察力，可以看到事情为什么会发生，以及它可能意味着什么。”)”以及文章中提到的Steph如何读书可知，文章主要讲述的是这份对Steph来说有着深远影响的书单。故选A。
C
Housing officials say that lately they are noticing something different: students seem to lack the will and the skill, to address ordinary conflicts. “We have students who are mad at each other and they text each other in the same room,” says a teacher. “So many of our roommate conflicts are because kids don’t know how to negotiate a problem.”
And as any pop psychologist will tell you, bottled emotions lead to silent discontent that can boil over into frustration and anger. “At the University of Florida, emotional outbursts occur about once a week,” the university’s director of housing and residence education says. “It used to be: ‘Let’s sit down and talk about it.’” he says. “Over the past five years, roommate conflicts have increased. The students don’t have the person-to-person discussions and they don’t know how to handle them.” The problem is most dramatic among freshmen; housing professionals say they see improvement as students move toward graduation, but some never seem to catch on, and they worry about how such students will deal with conflicts after college.
Administrators speculate that reliance on cell phones and the Internet may have made it easier for young people to avoid uncomfortable encounters. Why express anger in person when you can vent in a text? “Things are posted on someone’s wall on Facebook: Oh, my roommate kept me up all night studying,” says Dana Pysz, an assistant director in the office of residential life at the University of California, Los Angeles. “It’s a different way to express their conflict to each other, consequently creating even more frictions as complaints go public.” In recent focus groups at North Carolina State University, dorm residents said they would not even confront noisy neighbors on their floor.
Administrators point to parents who have fixed their children’s problems in their entire lives. Now in college, the children lack the skills to attend to even modest conflicts. Some parents continue to interfere on campus.
28. What is the main reason for many roommate conflicts?
A. Students are not strong-willed.
B. Students are not satisfied with each other.
C. Students are not good at reaching an agreement about the problems.
D. Housing directors are not responsible for many roommate conflicts.
29. What do we learn from the second paragraph?
A. Over the past five years, roommate conflicts have decreased.
B. Some students are not able to handle conflicts by the time they graduate.
C. Students in Florida sit down and have a person-to-person talk once a week.
D. The number of conflicts among roommates has decreased during the past five years.
30. What is the attitude of Dana Pysz when he mentions roommates disclosing their conflicts in the media?
A. Indifference. B. Disapproval. C. Eagerness. D. Empathy.
31. What should parents do according to the passage?
A. They should be involved in their children’s life on campus.
B. They should constantly contact the administrators of the college.
C. They should teach their children the skills to tackle the conflicts.
D. They should deal with their children’s problems in their whole lives.
【答案】28. C 29. B 30. B 31. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了人们认为现在的学生们似乎缺乏解决普通冲突的意愿和技能，分析了这一现象产生的原因以及父母该如何应对。
【28题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“So many of our roommate conflicts are because kids don’t know how to negotiate a problem.(我们的很多室友冲突都是因为孩子们不知道如何协商问题。)”可知，许多室友间的冲突只是他们不会就问题达成一致。故选C。
【29题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第二段“The problem is most dramatic among freshmen; housing professionals say they see improvement as students move toward graduation, but some never seem to catch on, and they worry about how such students will deal with conflicts after college.(这个问题在大一新生中表现得最为明显；住宿管理人士说，随着学生们临近毕业，他们看到了这种情况的改善，但有些人似乎一直没有意识到这一点，他们担心这些学生在大学毕业后将如何处理冲突。)”可知，有些学生可能到毕业都不会解决冲突。故选B。
【30题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段““Things are posted on someone’s wall on Facebook: Oh, my roommate kept me up all night studying,” says Dana Pysz, an assistant director in the office of residential life at the University of California, Los Angeles. “It’s a different way to express their conflict to each other, consequently creating even more frictions as complaints go public.”(加州大学洛杉矶分校住宿生活办公室助理主任Dana Pysz说：“有些事情会被贴在某人的Facebook留言板上：哦，我的室友让我通宵学习。”“这是一种表达彼此冲突的不同方式，随着投诉被公开，结果造成了更多的摩擦。”)”可推断，Dana Pysz认为把冲突放在媒体上解决，只会使得冲突更严重，所以他是不同意这样的解决问题的方式的。故选B。
【31题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“Administrators point to parents who have fixed their children’s problems in their entire lives. Now in college, the children lack the skills to attend to even modest conflicts. Some parents continue to interfere on campus.(管理人员指出，有些父母在孩子的一生中都在解决他们的问题。现在上了大学，孩子们缺乏处理小冲突的能力。一些家长继续在校园里干预。)”可推断，文章认为父母应该教会孩子解决冲突的能力而不是干预。故选C。
D
We’ve all faced it at one time or another: after laundry, a messy pile of clean clothes are waiting hours to be put away. There are plenty of machines that can wash and dry clothes. So why isn’t there a way to similarly automate the terrible folding process?
Researchers have looked into it over the years and as it turns out, robots just don’t do well in folding clothes. As is reported, machines need clear rules in order to function, and it’s hard for them to figure out what exactly is going on in those messy piles-say, where the sweater stops and where the towel begins. In sum, most robots have not generally been equipped for the task. But an international group of researchers say their new method could change that, or at least speed up the process.
Researchers are calling the new method SpeedFolding. It’s a “reliable and efficient bimanual system”—meaning it involves two hands—that’s able to smooth and fold clothes in record speed for robots. SpeedFolding can fold 30 to 40 pieces of clothing per hour, compared to previous models that averaged 3 to 6 pieces in that same time length, according to researchers.
SpeedFolding takes a different approach. Its novel network studied 4,300 human and machine-assisted actions in order to learn how to smooth and fold clothes from a random pattern. That process can involve a number of defined movements including dragging, moving and “pick-and-place”.
While researchers describe SpeedFolding as a significant improvement, it’s not likely to hit the market anytime soon. For one, researchers tracked down a robot similar to the one they used and found that it sold for $58,000. For another, researchers say there’s more they want to explore, including methods with which the robot can learn to work on a novel piece of clothing when given a few demonstrations. But there’s always hope that folding in the future will get even neater.
32. Why are robots poor at folding clothes?
A. It is difficult for them to obey clear human orders.
B. They are lacking in enough folding demonstrations.
C. They have trouble handling the random patterns of clothes.
D. It is difficult for them to remember the folding movements.
33. What do we know about SpeedFolding?
A. It can perform more delicate actions.
B. It can help with all sorts of housework.
C. It can record the working speed accurately.
D. It can fold 3 to 6 pieces per hour on average.
34. What does the author think of SpeedFolding?
A. It is highly profitable. B. It is no better than the old.
C. It has a promising future. D. It will go out of style quickly.
35. What can be a suitable title for the text?
A. Robots Become More Intelligent
B. The Fastest Ever Folding Robot is Here
C. Robots Release People from Housework
D. The Research on the Folding Robot is On
【答案】32. A 33. A 34. C 35. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了一种自动化快速折叠衣服的方法以及折叠机器人的前景。
【32题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二自然段“As is reported, machines need clear rules in order to function, and it’s hard for them to figure out what exactly is going on in those messy piles-say, where the sweater stops and where the towel begins. In sum, most robots have not generally been equipped for the task. (据报道，机器需要有明确的规则才能运转，而且它们很难弄清楚那些乱七八糟的堆里到底发生了什么，比如毛衣停在哪里，毛巾从哪里开始。总之，大多数机器人通常还没有装备完成这项任务。)”可知，机器人不善于折叠衣服是因为他们很难服从明确的人类命令。故选A。
【33题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四自然段“That process can involve a number of defined movements including dragging, moving and “pick-and-place”. (该过程可能涉及许多定义的移动，包括拖动、移动和“拾取和放置”。)”可知，SpeedFolding可以执行更精细的动作。故选A。
【34题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“For another, researchers say there’s more they want to explore, including methods with which the robot can learn to work on a novel piece of clothing when given a few demonstrations. But there’s always hope that folding in the future will get even neater. (另一方面，研究人员表示，他们还想探索更多的方法，包括机器人在进行几次演示后可以学习如何处理一件新衣服的方法。但人们总是希望未来的折叠会变得更整洁。)”可知，作者认为SpeedFolding有一个充满希望的未来。故选C。
【35题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第二自然段“But an international group of researchers say their new method could change that, or at least speed up the process. (但一个国际研究小组表示，他们的新方法可以改变这一情况，或者至少可以加快这一进程。)”以及最后一段“For another, researchers say there’s more they want to explore, including methods with which the robot can learn to work on a novel piece of clothing when given a few demonstrations. (另一方面，研究人员表示，他们还想探索更多的方法，包括机器人在进行几次演示后可以学习如何处理一件新衣服的方法。)”可知，本文主要介绍了一种自动化快速折叠衣服的方法以及折叠机器人的前景。故D项“The Research on the Folding Robot is On (折叠机器人的研究进展)”最能概括文章主旨。故选D。

Einstein’s Opinions on Creative Thinking
“The greatest scientists are artists as well,” said Albert Einstein, one of the greatest physicists and an amateur pianist and violinist.
For Einstein, insight did not come from logic or mathematics. ____36____ As he told one friend, “All great achievements of science must start from intuitive (直觉的) knowledge. Imagination is more important than knowledge. ”
____37____ Surprisingly, it wasn’t the content of an idea, or its subject, that determined whether something was art or science, but how the idea was expressed. If what is seen and experienced is described in the language of logic, then it is science. If it is communicated and recognized intuitively, then it is art. Einstein himself worked intuitively and expressed himself logically. ____38____
____39____ “If I were not a physicist,” he once said, “I would probably be a musician. I often think in music and I see my life in terms of music. I get most joy in life out of music.” Music provided Einstein with a connection between time and space, which both combine spatial (空间的) and structural aspects. “The theory of relativity occurred to me by intuition and music is the driving force behind this intuition,” said Einstein. “My parents had me study the violin from the time I was six. ____40____”
A. Instead, it came from intuition and inspiration.
B. My new discovery is the result of musical insight.
C. But how did art differ from science for Einstein?
D. That’s why he said that great scientists were also artists.

G. For Einstein, it was the humanities that mainly contributed to his achievements.
【答案】36. A 37. C 38. D 39. F 40. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了爱因斯坦关于创造性思维的观点。
【36题详解】
空前说“For Einstein, insight did not come from logic or mathematics.(对爱因斯坦来说，洞察力不是来自逻辑或数学)”可知，空格处应说究竟洞察力是来自于哪里，A选项“Instead, it came from intuition and inspiration.(相反，它来自直觉和灵感)”说明了洞察力是来自于直觉和灵感，因此承接上文，符合语境。故选A。
【37题详解】
空后说“Surprisingly, it wasn’t the content of an idea, or its subject, that determined whether something was art or science, but how the idea was expressed.(令人惊讶的是，决定一件事是艺术还是科学的，不是思想的内容或主题，而是思想的表达方式)”，C选项“But how did art differ from science for Einstein?(但对爱因斯坦来说，艺术和科学有什么不同呢？)”中的“art differ from science”和空后的“whether something was art or science”相呼应，引出了下文关于艺术和科学的区别的论述，因此C选项符合语境。故选C。
【38题详解】
根据上文“If what is seen and experienced is described in the language of logic, then it is science. If it is communicated and recognized intuitively, then it is art. Einstein himself worked intuitively and expressed himself logically.(如果用逻辑的语言来描述所看到的和所经历的，那么它就是科学。如果它能被直观地传达和识别，那么它就是艺术。爱因斯坦本人工作直觉，表达逻辑)”可知，本句对上文进行总结，指出科学就是艺术的观点。故D选项“这就是为什么他说伟大的科学家同时也是艺术家”符合语境。故选D。
【39题详解】
根据下文““If I were not a physicist,” he once said, “I would probably be a musician. I often think in music and I see my life in terms of music. I get most joy in life out of music.”(“如果我不是物理学家，”他曾说，“我可能会成为音乐家。我经常用音乐思考，用音乐来看待我的生活。我从音乐中得到生活中最大的乐趣。”)”可知，音乐对爱因斯坦帮助很大，F选项“Einstein also owed his scientific insight and intuition mainly to music.(爱因斯坦还把他的科学洞察力和直觉主要归功于音乐)”说明了音乐对爱因斯坦的帮助很大，引起下文，符合语境。故选F。
【40题详解】
根据上文“The theory of relativity occurred to me by intuition and music is the driving force behind this intuition(我是凭直觉想到相对论的，而音乐就是这种直觉背后的推动力)”可知，B选项“My new discovery is the result of musical insight.(我的新发现是音乐洞察力的结果)”承接上文，说明了爱因斯坦是靠音乐才有了新发现，和本段音乐对他的帮助的主题相符合，符合语境。故选B。

【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。本文介绍了嫦娥五号进行为期23天的太空之旅获取外星样本，使中国成为第三个完成这项任务的国家。
【56题详解】
考查定语从句。句意：你可能还记得去年12月初，中国执行了嫦娥五号无人驾驶任务，飞船着陆月球，采集样本用于研究。定语从句的先行词是the start of December，表示时间，且在定语从句中充当时间状语。故填when。
【57题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：嫦娥五号于11月24日凌晨由长征五号重型运载火箭发射升空，是中国最大、最复杂的月球探测器。空处的launch作定语，且与被修饰的Chang’e-5为被动关系，用过去分词。故填launched。
【58题详解】
考查形容词最高级。句意：同上。根据由and连接，空处应与largest并列，需要用最高级。complex“复杂的”，最高级为most complex，故填most complex。
59题详解】
考查形容词。句意：它带回了1731克的月球岩石和土壤，在最后一批月球物质被带回44年后，这标志着一项历史性的成就。形容词修饰名词，空后achievement为名词，所以此处用形容词historic，意为“具有重大历史意义的”，符合题意，故填historic。
【60题详解】
考查非谓语。句意：这次为期23天的任务是中国首次太空之旅获取外星样本，使中国成为第三个完成这项任务的国家，第一个是60年代的美国，第二个是70年代的苏联。当名词前有序数词修饰时，其后用不定式作定语，结合空前“China’s first space journey”，可知此处用不定式to claim，故填to claim。
【61题详解】
考查代词。句意：这次为期23天的任务是中国首次太空之旅获取外星样本，使中国成为第三个完成这项任务的国家，第一个是60年代的美国，第二个是70年代的苏联。空处需要用代词指代China。故填it。
【62题详解】
考查冠词。句意：宇宙飞船在大约120千米的高度进入地球大气层。at an altitude of“以……的高度”，故填an。
【63题详解】
考查副词。句意：它一到达离地面10公里的高度，就打开降落伞，平稳地降落在中国的内蒙古。修饰动词用副词，空前land“着陆”为动词，所以此处用副词smoothly，故填smoothly。
【64题详解】
考查谓语动词的时态。句意：现在宇宙飞船已经被空运到北京，那里的样本将很快被科学家检测。空处为定语从句的谓语动词，根据very soon可知要用一般将来时;且examine与samples为被动关系，用被动语态。故填will be examined。
【65题详解】
考查介词。句意：这次任务的结果将有助于人类更深入地了解月球的起源和太阳系的演化。contribute to…为固定短语，意为“有助于……”。故填to。

Students’ Union
【答案】Dear fellow students,
With many of us students engaged in our studies, some stay up late into night and ignore physical exercise. Therefore, I am appealing to us students to live an active and healthy life.
For one thing, it’s of vital importance to sleep as early as possible, which can make you energetic the whole day. Staying up late frequently makes it hard for you to focus on your class. For another, we are supposed to attach great importance to workout, which not only helps build up our body but also help us better adapt to the burden of study.
Given all the above benefits, all of you are highly recommended to plan your study time properly and taking exercise regularly.

67. 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。
After knowing that she couldn’t bear a child, Helen was devastated. One day while she was driving home from the café, a dirty puppy in the road caught Helen’s attention. After consideration, Helen and her husband eventually decided to take him home. And they later named him Ollie.
Two years later, Ollie had grown into a large ball of fur. Ollie was Helen’s world, and she hated it whenever someone addressed him as her rescue dog. Helen never went out without Ollie. One day, they were hanging out together outside a supermarket, unprepared for what was coming their way.
“Hey boy, wait in the car. I’ll be back, alright?” Helen said as she patted Ollie on his head. She locked him in the car and headed to the supermarket because Ollie hated crowded places and never accompanied Helen to the stores.
Moments later, there was a sudden outburst of chaos. Helen was busy shopping and had no idea it was raining heavily outside. The whole area began to flood unexpectedly. People rushed to every open store they could find for shelter.
12-year-old boy Matt was looking for a place to run to safety when he spotted people running to the supermarket nearby. He had no time to think and ran after them.
Matt hurried upstairs with the rest. Suddenly, Helen noticed the situation and was alarmed. “What happened?” she asked a man and screamed at the top of her lungs when she learned of the flood. All she could think of was Ollie trapped in the car.
“OLLIE..., I left my dog in the car,” she cried, running toward the window. “My dog is trapped in the car. Somebody, please...”
Matt looked outside and saw the car Helen pointed to was in the flash flood. Helen was frightened to go out because she didn’t know how to swim. Matt understood Helen’s anxiety and ran to her pet’s rescue.
He grabbed an iron rod from the corner and raced downstairs. “Hey kid, where are you going? You will drown,” someone shouted. But Matt turned a deaf ear to him because he was determined to save Ollie. In the meanwhile, some people placed a call to the rescue center.
注意：1. 续写词数应为150左右；

【答案】参考范文：
He braved the currents and swam to the car. Through the window, he saw a frightened dog staring at him with big eyes. Matt broke the window with the rod and grabbed Ollie. “Come here, boy...” he said. To his surprise, Ollie wagged his tail and obeyed. The dog was eventually pulled out, safe and sound. Matt then put the dog on the car’s roof and climbed up and sat with Ollie, patting him gently so that he would stay calm and not get scared looking at the flood below.
Minutes later, a rescue team arrived. Thankfully, it had stopped raining by then, making their task easier. The rescue team helped Matt and Ollie to safety. Helen tearfully hugged and kissed her dog. Helen turned around to Matt and started crying even more. “I don’t know how to thank you. You saved my baby’s life today.” Matt smiled at her and said, “I had a dog two years ago. I just understand your affection for him,” Helen thanked Matt again and offered to send him home.
