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。
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 2011, 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.
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.
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.
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 material in a brief summary.
38 To support students effectively, ChatGPT can be of great help because it generalizes the notes in accordance with the word limit students demand in a clear and brief manner. Studying and getting ready for exams and tests can be quite helpful. The class notes can be organized in a typed manner with only a few quick prompts, putting all the materials in 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. And they can use this tool more efficiently to get general guidance and recommendations on how to handle academics, such as how to organize an assignment, how to balance academic work with other interests, and so on. 40
A.Summarize the class notes.
B.Come up with artistic composition ideas.
C.And it could create more powerful and useful AI applications.
D.More importantly, it relies on human feedback to improve its accuracy.
E.In these cases, it might be useful in giving you a broad overview of an essay or article.
F.So ChatGPT can be used as a tool of assistance in an almost unlimited number of ways.
G.It may greatly simplify your life by writing emails or applications precisely and logically.

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!

Actually, Andy now was enjoying himself in the Stone Forest. _______________________________________

33.词义猜测题。根据文章第三段中的“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.

34.推理判断题。根据文章第四段中的““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”.

Then there is the issue of turning old cloth into new, which is almost as energy intensive as making it in the first place.(“棉花使用杀虫剂(如果不是有机种植的话),而且耗水量很大,”新标准研究所(一个专注于时尚和可持续发展的非营利组织)的主管Maxine·Bédar说。她还没有“找到一个可以接受棉花等纺织品的城市堆肥——这说起来容易做起来难”。即使手提袋被送到了处理厂,大多数用于在手提袋上印logo的染料都是聚氯乙烯制成的,因此不可回收;克里斯托弗·斯坦尼夫(西雅图纺织品回收公司Evrnu的联合创始人)说,它们“必须从布上剪下来”。然后是把旧布变成新布的问题,这几乎和最初生产旧布一样消耗能源。)”可知,有机棉布袋无法作为城市堆肥,即使送到处理厂,大多数手提袋也是不可回收的。由此可知,棉布袋缺乏再循环能力。故选A项。
35.推理判断题。根据文章最后一段““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”.(“让时尚循环”活动的经理劳拉·巴尔蒙德说:“棉手提包的困境是一个很好的例子,说明人们试图做出积极的选择,却不了解全貌,反而带来了意想不到的后果。”)”可知,Laura Balmond认为,棉手提包这一例子表明,虽然人们认识到了环保的重要性,试图做出积极的选择,但由于不了解全貌,反而带来了意想不到的效果。由此可推知,用棉手提包实际上是一个目光短浅的决定。故选C项。
七选五【答案】36.C 37.E 38.A 39.G 40.F
【解析】这是一篇说明文。主要说明了如何利用新人工智能ChatGPT来帮助学生学习。
36.根据上文“Currently, ChatGPT is an exciting new AI technology that has the potential to revolutionize the way humans interact with machines.(目前,ChatGPT是一项令人兴奋的新人工智能技术,它有可能彻底改变人类与机器交互的方式)”以及后文“ChatGPT can be a beneficial tool for everyone, especially for many students in the following ways.(ChatGPT是一个人人可用的,尤其对学生来说,非常有用的工具)”可知,应跟空前句继续点明ChatGPT的用途,故C选项“它可以创造更强大、更有用的人工智能应用”符合语境,故选C。
37.根据上文“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.(简明扼要地改写长篇文章,使其更容易阅读。由于学术压力和繁忙的学习计划,尤其是阅读长篇出版物的截止日期,学生往往无法深入研究概念、论文或文章,以充分理解学术环境)”以及后文“Students can utilize ChatGPT to summarize articles, research papers, and even essays to get the main ideas of the material in a brief summary.(学生可以利用ChatGPT来总结文章,研究论文,甚至散文,以一个简短的摘要来获得材料的主要思想)”可知,本句是对上文提到的“由于学术压力和繁忙的学习计划,尤其是阅读长篇出版物的截止日期,学生往往无法深入研究概念、论文或文章,以充分理解学术环境”这些情况的应对方法,即通过ChatGPT来让你对一篇文章有一个广泛的概述。E选项“在这些情况下,它可能会让你对一篇文章有一个广泛的概述”符合语境,故选E。
38.根据后文“To support students effectively, ChatGPT can be of great help because it generalizes the notes in accordance with the word limit students demand in a clear and brief manner. Studying and getting ready for exams and tests can be quite helpful. The class notes can be organized in a typed manner with only a few quick prompts, putting all the materials in 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.(为了有效地支持学生,ChatGPT可以提供很大的帮助,因为它可以根据学生要求的字数限制,以清晰和简短的方式概括笔记。学习和准备考试是很有帮助的。课堂笔记可以用打字的方式组织,只需要一些快速的提示,把所有的材料放在一个地方。学生可以使用简单的提示,列出需要编译成摘要的来源,以及允许的最大长度)”可知,此空为段落主题句,即旨在说明要总结课堂笔记。故A选项“总结课堂笔记”符合语境,故选A。
39.根据上文“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.(组织、创建和发送电子邮件。学生可能经常给老师或同学写电子邮件、申请或正式的通信信。特别是,如果他们有繁忙的学术日程,写这样的正式论文可能是非常费时费力的。那么ChatGPT就有帮助了)”以及后文“Just entering the objective, and specifying the tone students want, ChatGPT may generate a grammatically correct and formal email in a matter of seconds.(只要输入目标,并指定学生想要的语气,ChatGPT就可以在几秒钟内生成一封语法正确且正式的电子邮件)”可知,本句是在说明ChatGPT是如何帮助你写电子邮件的。故G选项“精确而有逻辑地写电子邮件或应用程序可以大大简化你的生活”符合语境,故选G。
40.根据上文“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. And they can use this tool more efficiently to get general guidance and recommendations on how to handle academics, such as how to organize an assignment, how to balance academic work with other interests, and so on. (时间管理和学术组织。除了帮助学生完成实际的学术任务外,ChatGPT还可以帮助学生组织和分类他们的学术工作。他们可以更有效地使用这个工具来获得关于如何处理学术问题的一般指导和建议,比如如何组织作业,如何平衡学术工作与其他兴趣,等等)”可知,本段主题“时间管理和学术组织”,即ChatGPT可帮助学生完成实际的学术任务,对他们的学术工作进行大致的组织和分类,获得一些关于如何处理学术问题的指导和建议。故F选项“因此ChatGPT可以作为一种辅助工具以几乎无限的方式使用”符合语境,故选F。

读后续写范文:
Actually, Andy now was enjoying himself in the Stone Forest. He was overjoyed to come to the long-anticipated place! Everything in the kingdom was so magic that he could not take his eyes off. The stones here were really unique, one of which looked like a tiger, with two fierce eyes and sharp teeth. Andy stared curiously at it, lost in thought. He wondered how it came into being. Maybe…Suddenly, he realized it was late and he had to say goodbye to the Stone Forest.
On the halfway back, Andy heard his mum’s calling. Then Andy quickened his steps, responding with greetings. The moment Susan caught sight of her son, she felt relieved with sparks in her eyes. Andy threw himself into Mum’s arms, saying in a thoughtful voice, “I’m sorry, Mum. I should have told you my plan earlier.” When Andy told his mother he was a brave boy, Susan realized Andy had grown up, a warm flow spreading inside. All the way, Andy shared what he discovered in the Stone Forest and volunteered to be the guide the next day!

M: Yes, but don’t argue with her. Just discuss it calmly.
W: OK. Thanks.
10.【原文】Color affects our moods, so think carefully about what colors you use in your house! You could paint your living room walls green, for example, because green helps you to feel peaceful and calm, but don’t paint them red unless you want to be in a bad mood every time you’re in there!
Thinking of painting your bedroom blue? Great idea! Blue will help you to concentrate and feel calm. Use another color as well though as too much blue will make you sad. Add some yellow to keep things cheery! What about the kitchen? Well, how about painting the kitchen purple if you want to create imaginative new recipes? Orange is a good choice too. It’ll make you feel energetic. Why not paint the bathroom white to help you organize your thoughts while taking a relaxing bath? Stay away from black, though, unless you want to scare your guests! Basically, it all depends on how you want to feel! For more information and advice from a professional color expert, call 020-8765432.
