第二部分 阅读（共两节，满分50分）
第一节（共15小题；每小题2.5分，满分37.5分）
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
2
A
The first rule of popular science is to reveal the wonder and mystery of the world. For that reason, Sentient (Picador), written by photographer and wildlife film-maker Jackie Higgins, is my pick of the year. According to my interviews with many readers, I select other four newly-published books in 2022.
Delicious
This book describes how our ancestors hunted and consumed ancient animals such as mammoths, bison, giant camels and many more now-extinct species. The diet of the Clovis peoples of North America was a menu described as “a record of a lost world”. This book explains how our dinners robbed the world of so many large animals. It gives inspiration for how modern humans can be at peace with nature.
The New Climate War
In 1999, Mann published a graph showing the rapid post-industrial rise in global temperatures. Two decades later, his book The New Climate War remains convinced that we can prevent climate change. This book sets out a common-sense approach to carbon pricing and a revision of the Green New Deal. Of course, there are still many people who deny that climate change is even happening.
The Geodesic Dome
Physicist Kate Greene imagines that she spends four months in a geodesic dome in Hawaii, with five other people, to mimic living in a colony on another planet. The story describes the future of our Earth. Kate makes readers cherish the natural environment. “No sunshine on our skin, and no fresh air in our lungs,” Greene turns the frustrations into a moving story.
Florida Scrub-Jay
The birds were once common across the peninsula. But as development over the last 100 years reduced the habitats on which the bird depends, the species became endangered. Mark Walters travels the state to report on the natural history and the current situation of Florida’s flag ship birds. This book can raise people’s awareness of protecting the birds’ habitats.
21．What can we infer about the author from the text?
A．He’s a column journalist. B．He’s a scientist.
C．He’s a film-maker. D．He’s a photographer.
22．Which book might be science fiction?
A．Delicious. B．Florida Scrub-Jay.
C．The Geodesic Dome. D．The New Climate War.
23．What do the listed books have in common?
A．They have happy endings. B．They record the natural history.
C．They face doubts from many scientists.D．They involve the environmental protection.

B
A small accident led to profound changes in the life of Yang Li, an artisan (手艺人), who
is from the Miao ethnic group. In 201l, Yang, from Tongren city in Guizhou province, created leaf vein (脉络) embroidery (刺绣) three months after a leaf cut her hand.
The work is a perfect combination of traditional embroidery patterns and the natural
textures (纹理) of the leaves. It has a unique aesthetic appeal of traditional embroidery matched with the characteristics of contemporary craftsmanship.
As a native Miao woman with an inborn love of embroidery, Yang opened a folk culture
products shop with her sister in 2011. “People are becoming less familiar with traditional handicrafts, and I want to contribute all I can to change this situation,” Yang says. At first, the small shop did not earn a significant income as there were many similar products on the market. She gradually realized that it was important to establish her own brand and launch products with distinct features.
That’s when she was inspired by the cut. In July 2011, Yang accidentally cut her hand on
a thorny leaf when she was hiking in Fanjing Mountain. A bold idea came into her head: “There are leaf-vein bookmarks and leaf-vein paintings. Why has nobody created leaf-vein embroider yet?”
Obviously, the reason behind this is that embroidering on leaves requires delicate skills
that few possess. The biggest technical challenge Yang faced was improving the flexibility of the leaves and making them as soft as cloth. On Oct 16, a day she will never forget, Yang finally created a shiny, thin and unbreakable piece of leaf vein. Her idea of leaf-vein embroidery came to completion after hundreds of experiments.
Two years later, Yang opened an embroidery processing factory and offered jobs to more
than 500 laid-off female workers, rural women and people with disabilities. “I will keep doing the leaf vein embroidery for the rest of my life because it is meaningful,” she says.
24．What do we know about Yang Li’s folk culture products shop?
A．It was inspired by a cut by a leaf in her hand.
B．It was intended to preserve traditional Chinese handicrafts.
C．It was a failure before she began to sell similar products.
D．It perfectly combined traditional Chinese books and drawings.
25．What is Yang Li’s difficulty in making her leaf-vein embroidery?
A．Finding cloth with vein-like texture.
B．Creating a new embroidery pattern.
C．Changing leaves into unbreakable cloth.
D．Softening up leaves for better flexibility.
4
26．Which of the following best describes Yang Li?
A．Ambitious and innovative. B．Caring and patient.
C．Persistent and demanding. D．Humorous and optimistic.
27．What is the text mainly about?
A．An embroidery skill. B．A promising career.
C．A cultural shop. D．An admirable artisan.
C
The word “art” usually evokes (唤起) images of white-walled galleries, abstract paintings costing millions of dollars and wealthy people, far removed from our everyday experience. Yet, art in 21st century is a different story.
The Internet has weakened the idea that art appreciation is only for the rich, It has
enabled more people than ever to have access to art. Netizens are not only consumers of art but creators and participants, too. The social media has made it much easier to share unprofessional work with the whole world. An unprofessional artist can now sell work or get advertising money from online videos.
“A picture is worth a thousand words” is the motto of data visualisation (可视化) fans.
The amount of information available today can be huge, so some people are working on presenting data using visually appealing diagrams that are easy for the public to understand. Of course, diagrams can also be used by dishonest people to mislead the audience, so we need to take care to interpret them the right way.
Another way that art advances education is by enabling us to understand concepts that are
invisible to the naked eye. For most biology students, the names and functions of dozens of proteins go in one ear and out the other, but unforgettable videos like “The Inner Life of the Cell” turn proteins into tiny people with different jobs in a city of large machinery. The same goes for concepts in physics such as black holes- we can understand them better with the help of artists who have backgrounds in both art and science.
Even though most people may not be consciously aware of it, art is all around us. As most
of our surrounding environment is man-made, everything in it contains some element of art and can influence our behaviour—telling us where to go or how to interact with objects, feeding us true or false information and controlling our emotions. Art indeed has a greater impact than many would believe it does.
28．What is the second paragraph mainly about?
A．How the Internet provides service for the rich.
B．How the Internet brings art closer to everyone.
C．How netizens can contribute to art.
D．How people appreciate and use art.
5
29．What’s the author s attitude towards using diagrams in paragraph 3?
A．Optimistic. B．Disapproving. C．Objective. D．Indifferent.
30．What can be inferred from paragraph 4?
A．Videos turn proteins into tiny people.
B．Art helps artists have more backgrounds.
C．Videos explain concepts better than pictures.
D．Art helps students understand some concepts.
31．Which of the following best describes art in the 21st century?
A．Accessible and powerful. B．Abstract and graceful.
C．Expensive and digital. D．Traditional and controversial.
D
Recently, Venetia Berry, an artist in London, counted up the free cotton tote bags that she
had accumulated in her closet. There were at least 25. “You get them without choosing,” Ms. Berry said. Cotton bags have become a means for retailers, brands and supermarkets to telegraph a planet-friendly value - or, at least, to show that the companies are aware of the overuse of plastic in packaging.
So far, so earth-friendly? Not exactly. It turns out the wholehearted embrace of cotton
totes may actually have created a new problem.
An organic cotton tote needs to be used 20,000 times to offset its overall impacts or production, according to a 2018 study by the Ministry of Environment and Food Denmark. That is equivalent to daily use for 54 years --- or just one bag. According to that, it all 25 of her tote hags were organic, Ms. Berry would have to live for more than a thousand years.
“Cotton uses pesticides (if it’s not organically grown) and it is so water intensive,” said
Maxine Bédar, a director at the New Standard Institute, a nonprofit focused on fashion and sustainability And she has “yet to find a municipal compost( 城市堆肥) that accepts textiles like cotton - something that’s much easier said than done”. Even when a tote does make it to a treatment plant, most dyes (染料) used to print logos onto totes are PVC-based and thus not recyclable: they “have to be cut out of the cloth”, said Christopher Stanev; the co-founder of Evrnu, a seattle- based textile recycling firm. Then there is the issue of turning old cloth into new, which is almost as energy intensive as making it in the first place.
“The cotton tote dilemma”, said Laura Balmond, the manager for the Make Fashion
Circular campaign, “is a really good example of unintended consequences of people trying to make positive choices, and not understanding the full landscape”.
32．Why did companies introduce cotton bags?
A．To lower packaging costs. B．To cater to people’s fashion sense.
C．To consume fewer natural resources. D．To shape an eco-friendly brand image.
6
33．What does the underlined word “offset” in paragraph 3 probably mean?
A．Evaluate. B． Balance. C．Enhance. D．Achieve.
34．Which of the following is a problem with cotton bags?
A．Lack of recyclability. B．Waste management.
C．Water pollution. D．Low profitability.
35．What is Laura Balmond’s understanding of the promotion of cotton bags?
A．It is a successful story. B．It fails to win people’s support.
C．It is a short-sighted decision. D．It benefits fashion brands.

Currently, ChatGPT is an exciting new AI technology that has the potential to revolutionize the way humans interact with machines.____36____ChatGPT can be a beneficial tool for everyone, especially for many students in the following ways.
Concisely rephrase lengthy articles and essays to make them easier to read. Students are
frequently unable to delve deeply into concepts, essays, or articles to build full understanding in academic settings due to academic pressure and demanding and busy study schedules, especially with deadlines for reading long publications.____37____Students can utilize
ChatGPT to summarize articles, research papers, and even essays to get the main ideas of the

one place. Students can employ straightforward prompts that list the sources that need to be compiled into the summary as well as the maximum length allowed.
Organize, create, and send emails. Students may frequently write emails, applications, or
formal letters of communication to their teachers, or peers. In particular, if they have a busy academic schedule, writing such formal papers can be exceedingly time-consuming and
laborious. Then ChatGPT helps.____39____Just entering the objective, and specifying the
tone students want, ChatGPT may generate a grammatically correct and formal email in a matter of seconds.
Time management and academic organization. Aside from those to help with actual
academic tasks, ChatGPT can also assist students with organizing and categorizing their academic work in general.

When Susan told her 12 years old son Andy their family were visiting New Delhi, a dreamlike place for teenagers, his little face was shining with indescribably wild joy. He had long expected to explore the imaginative kingdom, especially the Stone Forest, two miles east of the town, where lay various stones in different colors and sizes.
The two-day trip was very tight—first met their old friends, the Millers and then met
Andy's expectation. When they reached their house it was already 3 p.m. Miller and his wife were happy to meet them after a long time. They sat in the drawing room and chatted about old times. Their son soon bored with adult conversation, went out to play with the host's children—Eric and Daisy—both of whom were around Andy's age.
But Andy's appetite seemed never to be satisfied. As his name Andy conveyed, he was
courageous and adventurous. Andy was impatient to inspect the route to the Stone Forest
ahead so as to be a tour guide for his parents the next day! He forgot the grand dinner the Millers prepared the evening.
Dinner time Eric and Daisy came running back, both excited about the special dinner, but
Andy wasn't with them. Alarmed, Miller asked them about Andy, but between our panicked questions and keyed-up voices they became nervous, unable to convey anything. From the little they were able to explain, they guessed that the children were riding their bikes in the
neighbourhood lanes (小巷), while Andy ran after them. At some point, Andy must have
fallen behind, unable to keep pace, taken a wrong turn and lost his way.
Panic-stricken, they all ran out in search of Andy. At the same time, Susan's mind raced
with all sorts of horrible situations—a part of the road was dug up for some construction work; what if Andy had fallen in? How far had he wandered? How alone and scared he must be in a strange town!
注意：1. 续写词数应为150左右；
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Paragraph 1
Actually, Andy now was enjoying himself in the Stone Forest.

On the halfway back, Andy heard his mum's calling.
