I was 16 years old the day I skipped school for the first time. It was easily done: Both my parents left for work before my school bus arrived, so when it showed up at my house on that cold winter morning, I simply did not get on. The perfect crime!
And what did I do with myself on that glorious stolen day, with no adult in charge and no limits on my activities? Did I get high? Hit the mall for shopping?
Nope. I built a warm fire in the wood stove, prepared a bowl of popcorn, grabbed a blanket, and read. I was thrilled and transported by a book — it was Hemingway’s The Sun Also Rises—and I just needed to be alone with it for a little while. I ached to know what would happen to Jake Barnes and Lady Brett Ashley and Robert Cohn. I couldn’t bear the thought of sitting in a classroom taking another biology exam when I could be traveling through Spain in the 1920s with a bunch of expatriates (异乡客).
I spent that day lost in words. Time fell away, as the room around me turned to mist, and my role — as a daughter, sister, teenager, and student — in the world no longer had any meaning. I had accidentally come across the key to perfect happiness: I had become completely absorbed in something I loved.
Looking back on it now, I can see that some subtle things were happening to my mind and to my life while I was in that state of absorption. Hemingway’s language was quietly braiding itself into my imagination. I was downloading information about how to create simple and elegant sentences, a good and solid plot. In other words, I was learning how to write. Without realizing it, I was on the trail of my own fate. Writing now absorbs me the way reading once did and happiness is their generous side effect.
4.Why did the author skip school on that day?
A.Because her parents left home early. B.Because she was attracted by a novel.
C.Because she planned to go shopping. D.Because she missed the school bus.
5.What did the author think is the source of true joy?
A.Reading by the fire. B.Travelling in Spain.
C.Freeing herself from the roles. D.Being lost in one’s passion.
6.Which word can best replace the underlined phrase “braiding itself into” in the last paragraph?
A.Entering. B.Recovering. C.Weakening. D.Blocking.
7.What can we infer from the last paragraph?
A.I was aware of the subtle things back then.
B.I simply learnt how to write on the internet.
C.Hemingway’s style influenced me a lot.
D.Becoming a writer was my childhood dream.
It is an uncomfortable fact that civilized society is almost completely dependent upon fossil fuels in nearly every aspect. Whether you believe there are hundreds of years or just a few decades left of this resource, the fact remains that it is a limited resource. At some point, fossil fuels are going to either be gone or become too expensive to realistically use. That is, when fossil fuels become too expensive to use, people will just start using something else. Though this may work well in theory, actually shifting from fossil fuels is not the same as shifting from one brand of shampoo to another.
This is entirely due to the fact that humans rely so much on the infrastructure (基础设施) they have developed, which is entirely dependent upon this resource, accounting for 85% of the United State's energy use. If the world were entirely dependent upon solar energy, that would be fine because sunlight is a continuing resource. However, at the current state of things, humans are in a dangerous position owing to its complete dependence upon one single limited input.
Fossil fuels are also responsible for a significant amount of land, water, and air pollution beyond their carbon dioxide (二氧化碳) production. For example, coal mining brings solid wastes to the surface that would normally remain underground and the areas around a mine can remain barren (贫瘠的) for generations due to the lack of proper topsoil. The burning of coal for energy also produces many different types of particulate (微粒的) matter that pollutes the air. Compared with fossil fuels, renewable energy is far more environmentally friendly.
There exists an argument that renewable energy options are not as efficient as fossil fuels because the deployment (部署) of renewable energy equipment like the wind turbine (风力涡轮机) costs a lot of money. However, when factors such as pollution and climate change are considered, renewable energy is actually far more efficient than fossil fuels. And fossil fuels will be surely replaced by renewable energy whether it is your generation or your grandchildren's.
8.According to paragraph 1, we know fossil fuels ____.
A.are heavily depended on by humans
B.are a symbol of civilized society
C.are becoming more and more expensive
D.can be replaced by other resources soon
9.What does ''This'' in paragraph 2 refer to?
A.That it is necessary to use solar energy.
B.That it is hard to stop using fossil fuels.
C.That people have overconsumed fossil fuels.
D.That people have developed so many infrastructures.
10.What is the purpose of paragraph 3?
A.To show the relationship between greenhouse gases and fossil fuels.
B.To present negative consequences brought by fossil fuels.
C.To introduce how carbon dioxide affects the environment.
D.To explain why fossil fuels should be used.
11.What is the text mainly about?
A.Renewable energy equipment is economically-beneficial.
B.Renewable energy produces less energy than fossil fuels.
C.It is very urgent for people to shift to renewable energy.
D.It is an unstoppable trend to use renewable energy.
Media multitasking, such as scrolling through social media while watching a movie, may be linked to more brief failures in attention and difficulty remembering things.
“Our data support the idea that we should be aware of how we engage with media,” says Kevin Paul Madore at Stanford University in California. He and his team compared people’s self-reported levels of media multitasking with their performances in a memory task, as part of a study including 80 participants aged 18 to 26.
The researchers specifically tested episodic memory, which helps us recall events, by presenting the participants with images of objects on a computer and then later asking them to recall whether they had seen the objects earlier or not. At the same time, the team used EEG and eye tracking to monitor people’s attentiveness.
Madore and his colleagues also asked participants to complete a questionnaire to determine how often they engage in various forms of media multitasking, such as texting while watching TV or reading while listening to music. They found that people who reported more frequent media multitasking had more brief failures in attention during the memory task, which was associated with increased difficulties with remembering.
“I think conscious awareness of attentiveness and limiting potential distractions can go a long way in memory preparedness and reducing mind wandering or mind blanking,” says Madore. “Resisting media multitasking during school lectures or work zones, or limiting media multitasking to set times, could be valuable.”
“Media multitasking is becoming more prominent. We don’t actually know anything about the effects yet,” says Amy Orben at the University of Cambridge. It will be important to investigate whether media multitasking causes brief attentional failure and memory failure or whether there is another factor, such as how generally distractible a person is, that could explain the association. “This could be investigated through studies that monitor people over time and this is a really interesting area that we should explore,” she says.
12.What were the research subjects asked to do?
A.Monitor their attentiveness. B.Recall the content of the images.
C.Describe their frequency of media multitasking. D.Answer some questions on potential distractions.
13.According to Madore, what can benefit people’s memory?
A.Avoiding mind wandering. B.Restricting media multitasking.
C.Engaging less with social media. D.Being aware of potential distractions.
14.What will the future study most probably focus on?
A.How generally distractible a person is.
B.How to monitor people in the long run.
C.What should be factored in attentional failures.
D.Whether media multitasking gives rise to inattention.
15.What can be a suitable title for the text?
A.More Media Multitasking, Worse Memory B.More Media Multitasking, Less Efficiency
C.Media Multitasking — a Barrier to Success D.Media Multitasking — a Distraction from Work
二、七选五
How to Understand the Mind of an Interviewer
Getting inside an interviewer’s head can be tricky, as their perspective will change according to personality type, professional role, and personal experience. 16
Research the company to determine what the interviewer is looking for. Company culture (work-life balance, atmosphere, etc.) is a great indicator of what your interviewer will want to see in candidates. 17 You can look for company mission statements for a better understanding of company culture, or quotes from top-level executives (领导层), like CEOs, which often set the tone for company culture.
Look up the interviewer when possible. 18 This is the perfect chance to look up background information on the interviewer on the company’s website. Professional and social media platforms can also help you better know what to expect from an interviewer.
19 Many interviewers determine the truthfulness of your resume (简历) this way. If you respond with answers that are inconsistent with what you wrote in your resume, many interviewers will interpret it as a red flag. Thus, remember to review the start and end dates of positions listed on your resume and try not to be annoyed at this kind of fact checking.
Identify how the interviewer’s position will influence expectations. The role of your interviewer usually has an impact on what that person expects from a candidate. An HR representative, for example, will want to know you’re a good fit with the company culture and values. A direct manager, however, would be most interested in your practical ability to do the job.
Regardless of their roles, most interviewers will want to know you’ll make their lives easier. 20
A.Be consistent with what you wrote in your resume.
B.Expect the interviewer to question you on your resume.
C.Therefore, it’s not an easy job to understand their mind.
D.So try to make a point of addressing this during the interview.
E.Usually, you’ll be informed of your interviewer’s name before you meet them.
F.However, you can research on the interviewer and tailor your answers to stand out.
G.In most situations, interviewers will expect you to share similar values with the company.

On a steamy morning in July, Clay and Acaimie Chastain arrived at the base of Mount Liamuiga on the Caribbean island of St.Kitts, ready to spend a day of their honeymoon climbing Mount Liamuiga.The highest point on St.Kitts, Liamuiga is also a dormant(休眠的)volcano that starts in the clouds and plunges down to meet the sea.
They couldn't find a visitor centre or hire a guide, so they set off on their own.They reached the peak around noon and ate their sandwiches looking out over the ocean and surrounding islands.
That's when Clay saw it: a small trail that led into the volcano's crater(坑), a bowl of green with cloud forest giving way to green grass.A series of screw eyes(螺钉孔)had been drilled into the rocks, with ropes that led down.Clay wanted to go down and take some pictures.Acaimie followed him a little way, but she was very cautious and quite scared of heights;so Clay went on alone.
A few minutes later, she heard a crash——a noise that sounded like a large branch snapping, followed by the sound of something big rolling downhill."Clay?" she called.Silence.
Uneasy, she waited a minute and shouted again——still nothing.And then, from somewhere much further down, she heard a weak cry for help.This time she was certain: It was Clay calling for help from deep within the crater.
As she looked over the lip of the volcano, she tried to stop some of her worst worries.Her phone wasn't getting a signal, and her cries for help were met with only silence."Clay!" she shouted as loud as she could."Clay, are you OK?"
Acaimie grasped the rope and began climbing down the trail.When the path became too steep, she slid on her butt, her legs and arms getting bruised and scraped in the process.Then, just off the trail, she saw a flash of red.It was Clay's scarf.And next to it was his cell phone.
She grabbed both and continued down, screaming for Clay all the way.
"Help," he said in that strange voice.
"I'm coming! Stay where you are," she said.
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.
Finally, she spotted Clay.

【分析】这是一篇议论文。本文主要通过陈述化石燃料这种资源的减少、不可再生和对环境的危害,让人们意识到使用可再生能源是一个必然的、势不可挡的趋势。
8.细节理解题。根据第一段的It is an uncomfortable fact that civilized society is almost completely dependent upon fossil fuels in nearly every aspect.可知文明社会几乎在每个方面都完全依赖化石燃料,即人类几乎完全依靠化石燃料。A. are heavily depended on by humans(人类严重依靠化石燃料)符合以上说法,故选A项。
9.词意猜测题。根据第一段和第二段的That is, when fossil fuels become too expensive to use, people will just start using something else. Though this may work well in theory, actually shifting from fossil fuels is not the same as shifting from one brand of shampoo to another. This is entirely due to the fact that humans rely so much on the infrastructure (基础设施) they have developed可知,当化石燃料变得太贵而不能使用时,人们就会开始使用其他方法。虽然这在理论上行得通,但实际上从化石燃料的转变并不像是从一个牌子的洗发水换成另一个牌子的洗发水。This完全是由于人类如此依赖这种资源发展的基础设施。结合句意可知,this指代上文提到的内容,即人类很难停止使用化石燃料。B. That it is hard to stop using fossil fuels.(停止使用化石燃料很难)符合以上说法,故选B项。
10.推理判断题。根据第三段的Fossil fuels are also responsible for a significant amount of land, water, and air pollution beyond their carbon dioxide (二氧化碳) production.可知化石燃料除了产生二氧化碳,还会造成大量土地、水和空气污染。由此推测写本段的主要目的是陈述化石燃料带来的负面影响。B. To present negative consequences brought by fossil fuels.(为了陈述化石燃料带来的负面结果)符合以上推测,故选B项。
11.主旨大意题。根据文章的主要内容,尤其是最后一段的However, when factors such as pollution and climate change are considered, renewable energy is actually far more efficient than fossil fuels. And fossil fuels will be surely replaced by renewable energy whether it is your generation or your grandchildren's. (然而,如果考虑到污染和气候变化等因素,可再生能源实际上比化石燃料的效率要高得多。无论是你们这一代,或者你们的子孙后代,化石燃料肯定会被可再生能源所取代)可知本文主要通过陈述化石燃料这种资源的减少、不可再生和对环境的危害,让人们意识到使用可再生能源是一个必然的、势不可挡的趋势。D. It is an unstoppable trend to use renewable energy. (使用可再生能源是一个势不可挡的趋势)符合以上说法,故选D项。

【分析】这是一篇说明文。研究发现同时处理多个多媒体任务可能导致记忆力变差,文章介绍了这项研究开展的过程以及研究人员指出限制媒体多任务可以有助于人们的记忆,未来的研究最可能关注媒体多任务处理是否会引起注意力不集中的问题。
12.细节理解题。根据第二段中“He and his team compared people’s self-reported levels of media multitasking with their performances in a memory task, as part of a study including 80 participants aged 18 to 26.(他和他的团队对80名年龄在18岁至26岁之间的参与者进行了一项研究,将他们自我报告的媒体多任务处理水平和他们在记忆任务中的表现进行了比较)”可知,研究对象被要求描述他们对媒体多任务处理的频率。故选C。
13.细节理解题。根据倒数第二段““I think conscious awareness of attentiveness and limiting potential distractions can go a long way in memory preparedness and reducing mind wandering or mind blanking,” says Madore. “Resisting media multitasking during school lectures or work zones, or limiting media multitasking to set times, could be valuable.”(Madore说:“我认为,有意识地意识到注意力的集中,限制潜在的干扰,对记忆准备和减少神游或思维空白大有帮助。在学校讲座或工作区域抵制媒体多任务处理,或将媒体多任务处理限制在特定时间,可能是有价值的。”)”可知,Madore认为限制媒体多任务可以有助于人们的记忆。故选B。
14.推理判断题。根据最后一段中“It will be important to investigate whether media multitasking causes brief attentional failure and memory failure or whether there is another factor, such as how generally distractible a person is, that could explain the association. “This could be investigated through studies that monitor people over time and this is a really interesting area that we should explore,” she says.(研究媒体多任务处理是否会导致短暂的注意力和记忆障碍,或者是否有另一个因素(比如一个人通常会分心)可以解释这种关联,这将是很重要的。她说:“这可以通过长期监测人们的研究进行调查,这是一个值得我们探索的有趣领域。”)”可推知,未来的研究最可能关注媒体多任务处理是否会引起注意力不集中的问题。故选D。
15.主旨大意题。根据第一段“Media multitasking, such as scrolling through social media while watching a movie, may be linked to more brief failures in attention and difficulty remembering things.(同时处理媒体任务,比如一边看电影一边在社交媒体上滚动屏幕,可能与注意力不集中和记忆困难有关)”结合文章说明了研究发现同时处理多个多媒体任务可能导致记忆力变差,文章介绍了这项研究开展的过程以及研究人员指出限制媒体多任务可以有助于人们的记忆,未来的研究最可能关注媒体多任务处理是否会引起注意力不集中的问题。可知,A选项“媒体处理任务越多,记忆力越差”最符合文章标题。故选A。

【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一些有助于理解面试官想法的方法。
16.根据上文“Getting inside an interviewer’s head can be tricky, as their perspective will change according to personality type, professional role, and personal experience.(了解面试官的想法可能是件棘手的事情,因为他们的观点会根据个性类型、职业角色和个人经历而变化)”以及下一段中“Research the company to determine what the interviewer is looking for. Company culture (work-life balance, atmosphere, etc.) is a great indicator of what your interviewer will want to see in candidates.(调查公司,了解面试官在寻找什么。公司文化(工作与生活的平衡,氛围等)是面试官希望在应聘者身上看到的一个很好的指标)”可知,上文提到了解面试官所存在的困难,后文则介绍了了解的方法。由此可知,本句与上文构成转折,指出可以研究面试官,F选项中the interviewer对应上文中an interviewer。故F. However, you can research on the interviewer and tailor your answers to stand out. (但是,你可以研究一下面试官,调整你的回答使自己脱颖而出)符合语境,故选F。
17.根据上文“Company culture (work-life balance, atmosphere, etc.) is a great indicator of what your interviewer will want to see in candidates.(公司文化(工作与生活的平衡,氛围等)是面试官希望在应聘者身上看到的一个很好的指标)”可知,上文提到面试官希望在应聘者身上看到公司文化,即和公司有相似的价值观,故G选项In most situations, interviewers will expect you to share similar values with the company.(在大多数情况下,面试官希望你和公司有相似的价值观)符合语境,故选G。
18.根据后文“This is the perfect chance to look up background information on the interviewer on the company’s website. Professional and social media platforms can also help you better know what to expect from an interviewer.(这是在公司网站上查找面试官背景信息的绝佳机会。专业和社交媒体平台也可以帮助你更好地了解面试官的期望)”可知,后文提到了查找面试官背景信息的绝佳机会。由此推知,本句是在说明这个机会是:在见到面试官之前被告知他们的名字。故E选项Usually, you’ll be informed of your interviewer’s name before you meet them.(通常,你在见到面试官之前就会被告知他们的名字)符合语境,故选E。

46.One possible version:
Recently, there has been an increasing concern about the phenomenon that high school students don’t have enough sleep. Many students stay up late for various reasons, ranging from heavy homework to being addicted to digital devices.
The importance of a good sleep can never be emphasized too much. It can help us stay focused in class and, furthermore, serves as a basic foundation for good health. On the contrary, the long-term shortage of sleep not only robs us of energy needed for study in the daytime, but also gives rise to many potential physical and mental diseases as well.
Therefore, it is suggested that we should work out an efficient plan for our school life, striking a balance between work and study. Only by keeping a healthy life-style can we have a strong body to deal with future challenges.

47.Finally, she spotted Clay. He was sitting on the ground, blood running down his face. “Clay,” she called in an anxious voice. “What’s wrong? Have you broken anything?” With a confused look on his face, Clay just stared at her and couldn’t remember anything that had happened. Perhaps the rope he’d been holding had snapped, or maybe he’d just missed a step, but it was clear he’d fallen a long way. Acaimie had to stay calm for Clay, but inside she was in great panic, worried that he had internal injuries that could kill him.
Acaimie had to push those thoughts away and focus on what she could do. She helped him up, had him hold the rope tight and pushed him from behind. Inch by inch, they climbed. After what felt like forever, they reached the top. As they made their way down the trail, Clay’s breathing became more laboured. Acaimie kept shouting for help, but they didn’t see anyone. Thankfully, about halfway down she managed to get a signal and call an ambulance. To their relief, by the time they reached the bottom, the ambulance was waiting for them.
