There are hundreds f bacterial(细菌的)species in ur stmach. Bacterial diversity is a gd thing, a general cntributr t and marker f gd health. But what des a healthy stmach lk like? Studies indicate that the cmpsitin varies by many factrs.
One f the mst imprtant, it turns ut, is wh yu currently live with. Researchers have cme t the cnclusin: Diet and heritability(遗传力) are knwn t affect the micrbime(微生物组), but scial relatinships shape it mst—especially when it cmes t marriage. The Dutch Prject, which studied micrbes in 8, 208 individuals belnging t three generatins, finds that the heritability f micrbes is nly 1. 9 percent. They nticed much greater similarity amng the unrelated individuals sharing a husehld than amng relatives wh d nt share husehlds, including twins whse living situatins differ in adulthd.
The researchers fund that nearly 50 percent f micrbial types were significantly affected by chabitatin. In general, the micrbimes f all types f chabitrs (including parents and children) were mre similar than thse f participants living separately n matter their relatedness. Married cuples wh reprt having a clse, lving relatinship have the mst similarity. Evidence f micrbial sharing, especially f rare species, shws exchanges thrugh interactins. And that puts highlight n acts f clse relatinship—including kissing. Scientists have knwn fr decades that scial relatinships, especially marriage, pwerfully affect health. Nt nly are the micrbimes f chabiting cuples mre similar t each ther; they als are mre similarly diverse. There is a greater richness f species than in unmarried, nnchabiting individuals.
Despite the dminating influence f a clse, chabiting relatinship, the micrbime can be different in diet, especially ne rich in plant fiber. It can als be influenced by behavir, such as farming and gardening and exercise. Mrever, it’s adaptable t envirnment—green space and pllutants arund yu. Living in a rural envirnment brings increases in bacteria linked t health, and decreases in bacteria that are harmful. Living with pets als has a psitive effect n the micrbime, while expsure t air pllutin, especially car exhaust, and passive expsure t cigarette smke have negative effects.
It can als be affected by direct additin f specific species f bacteria, delivered in cnsumable prbitics(口服益生菌). There are prbitics nw marketed fr digestive health, thers aimed at immune health, and still thers fr bsting md. Nw that it’s clear that scial relatins play the largest rle in the makeup f the micrbime, can prbitics fr singles be far behind?
28.Which grup has the mst similar micrbimes?
A.Husband and wife.B.Adult twins.
C.Grandfather and grandsn.D.Clleagues.
29.What can we learn frm this passage?
A.Diet has a dminating influence n micrbimes.
B.Chabitatin is helpful fr us t have a balanced diet.
C.Scial relatins play a similar rle as sme prbitics.
D.The micrbimes in cuples are less diverse than singles.
30.Which wuld be the best title fr the passage?
A.Wh Are the Healthiest Peple?B.Hw Des Scial Life Affect Our Health?
C.What Will a Healthy Stmach Lk Like?D.Hw D Micrbimes Wrk in Our Bdy?
【答案】28.A 29.C 30.B
【导语】文章是一篇说明文,介绍了一个健康的胃的组成有很多不同的因素。
28.细节理解题。根据第二段“Researchers have cme t the cnclusin: Diet and heritability(遗传力) are knwn t affect the micrbime(微生物组), but scial relatinships shape it mst—especially when it cmes t marriage. ”(研究人员得出结论:饮食遗传力已知会影响微生物群,但社会关系影响最大,尤其是婚姻关系。)以及“They nticed much greater similarity amng the unrelated individuals sharing a husehld than amng relatives wh d nt share husehlds, including twins whse living situatins differ in adulthd.”(他们注意到,同住一个家庭的无血缘关系的个体之间的相似性比不同住一个家庭之间的无血缘关系的亲属之间的相似性要大得多)可知,丈夫和妻子的关系会具有相似的微生物群。故选A项。
29.推理判断题。根据最后一段“Nw that it’s clear that scial relatins play the largest rle in the makeup f the micrbime, can prbitics fr singles be far behind?”(既然社会关系在微生物的构成中起着重大的作用,那么单身者们的益生菌还会远吗?)可知,社会关系和一些益生菌都在微生物的构成中起着重要作用,由此可推知,社会关系和一些益生菌有着相似的作用。故选C。
30.主旨大意题。根据文章第二段的“One f the mst imprtant, it turns ut, is wh yu currently live with (事实证明,最重要的一个因素是你现在和谁住在一起) ”和第三段“The researchers fund that nearly 50 percent f micrbial types were significantly affected by chabitatin (研究人员发现,近50%的微生物种类受到同居的显著影响)”以及最后一段的“Nw that it’s clear that scial relatins play the largest rle in the makeup f the micrbime, can prbitics fr singles be far behind?(既然社会关系在微生物群的组成中起着最大的作用,那么为单身人士提供益生菌还会远吗?)”可知本文主要讲述了一个健康的胃的组成是有很多不同的因素,其中最重要的因素是社会关系,文章分析了社交关系对我们的胃的影响,因此社交因素影响了我们的健康。B.Hw Des Scia1 Life Affect Our Health? (社交生活如何影响我们的健康? )最适合做文章标题,故选B。

Hardly a day ges by withut a cmpany telling us in its beautifully crafted advertising hw much it cntributes t the envirnment n ur behalf. Flwers grw ut f pwer-statin chimneys; SUVs are presented in natural habitats; il cmpanies use sunny, friendly lgs and prmise cleaner technlgies- althugh, in fact, they fail t make enugh investment in renewable r alternative energy surces. Statistics are made up, and the tiniest eclgical imprvements are verstated in multi-millin-dllar advertising campaigns, while in the meantime the greedy side f the business cntinues.
This is knwn as greenwashing, which means “making things that are nt green lk green”. The phenmenn has lng existed since the first Earth Day in 1970, when cmpanies spent $300 millin advertising themselves as green cmpanies—many times mre than the mney they actually spent n research int pllutin reductin itself. And the trend cntinued ver the fllwing decades when sme f the planet’s wrst plluters tried t pass themselves ff as ec-friendly. As the public’s envirnmental awareness grew, s t did the experience f crprate public relatins strategies, and advertisers fund ever- mre-creative ways t use a green curtain t hide dark mtives.
Of curse, sme businesses are genuinely cmmitted t making the wrld a better, greener place. But when a cmpany spends mre time and mney claiming t be “green” than actually adpting business practices that minimize envirnmental impact, it is clear that, fr them, envirnmentalism is little mre than a cnvenient slgan(口号). Their message is “buy ur prducts and yu will end glbal warming, imprve air quality and save the ceans”. At best, such greenwashing pushes the fact t its limits; at wrst, it helps cnceal deceptin.
And what abut tday s cnsumers? Few f them are truly well-equipped t make infrmed decisins abut what is true. Greenwashing is nly pssible because cnsumers ften believe what they are being tld-why else wuld cmpanies d it? Mre infrmatin and greater awareness are essential. Analysing the tricks used by advertisers shuld be part f every schl curriculum. Nn- gvernmental rganisatins can spread the wrd. Cnsumer grups can punish the greenwashing cmpanies. But it is nt enugh. Legally enfrceable systems must be put in place.
S what is already being dne abut planned attempts t pull the wl ver cnsumers’ eyes? In the United States, the Federal Trade Cmmissin is taking actin against misleading advertising claims. France has published Green Claims Guidance, stressing that “an advertisement must avid cnveying a message cntrary t the accepted principles f sustainable develpment”. All f these surely are the heart f the matter: the true impact f advertising is the prmtin f unsustainable lifestyles. And therein lies the real danger t ur planet, a danger which cannt be ignred any lnger.
31.What can we learn abut greenwashing?
A.It is an eclgical cncept.
B.It is a marketing technique.

【答案】31.B 32.A 33.B 34.A
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了现在社会中不光有企业致力于让世界变得更美好、更环保,也有一些公司夸大效果、编造数据,试图用环保理念掩盖其黑暗的动机。
31.推理判断题。根据文章第一段“Hardly a day ges by withut a cmpany telling us in its beautifully crafted advertising hw much it cntributes t the envirnment n ur behalf. Flwers grw ut f pwer-statin chimneys; SUVs are presented in natural habitats; il cmpanies use sunny, friendly lgs and prmise cleaner technlgies- althugh, in fact, they fail t make enugh investment in renewable r alternative energy surces.(几乎每天都有公司在精心制作的广告中告诉我们,他们为我们的环境做出了多大的贡献。发电厂的烟囱里会长出花朵;SUV出现在自然栖息地;石油公司使用阳光、友好的标志,并承诺使用更清洁的技术——尽管事实上,他们没有在可再生能源或替代能源上投入足够的资金。)”中,作者举例说明现状,即很多高污染公司会利用广告试图向外界表达自己绿色、环保的生产经营理念,而实际上却并没有真正做到环保。由此可以推测出,所以对于这些公司来说,假装自己环保只是一种打广告的营销手段。故选B项。
32.词义猜测题。根据文章第三段“At best, such greenwashing pushes the fact t its limits; at wrst, it helps cnceal deceptin.(充其量,这种“洗绿”将事实推到了极限;在最坏的情况下,它有助于掩盖欺骗。)”,分析句子成分可知,it指的是上文提到的greenwashing这个现象;上文“Their message is “buy ur prducts and yu will end glbal warming, imprve air quality and save the ceans”.(他们传递的信息是“购买我们的产品,你就能结束全球变暖,改善空气质量,拯救海洋”。)”中,作者再次举例说明一些公司“声称”自己是环保企业,宣传虚假信息,欺骗消费者,而购买这些产品并不能结束全球变暖、改善空气质量,这些企业只不过是想利益最大化,吸引更多的顾客以谋取更多的利益;所以“洗绿”这件事情能够帮助这些企业隐藏他们的真实想法,即隐瞒真相。故选A项。
33.推理判断题。根据文章第四段第二句“Few f them are truly well-equipped t make infrmed decisins abut what is true.(他们中很少有人能真正有准备地对真相做出明智的判断和决定。)”可知,他们很少有人做出明智的判断,是否具有法知识无法推断。故D选项:They tend t make sensible decisins.(他们倾向于做出明智的决定。)错误;A选项:They are lacking in legal knwledge.(他们缺乏法律知识。)错误。根据“Cnsumer grups can punish the greenwashing cmpanies.(消费者团体可以惩罚环保公司。)可知,消费者团体是支持真正的环保的。文中无法推断出大部分消费者质疑消费者团体”故C选项错误。根据“Greenwashing is nly pssible because cnsumers ften believe what they are being tld-why else wuld cmpanies d it?(漂绿之所以成为可能,是因为消费者经常相信别人告诉他们的,否则公司为什么会这样做?)”可知,消费者相信广告公司的漂绿行为,助长了公司的虚假环保的行为。故B选项:They have encuraged greenwashing.(他们已经鼓励了漂绿行为)正确。故选B。
34.主旨大意题。根据文章最后一段“All f these surely are the heart f the matter: the true impact f advertising is the prmtin f unsustainable lifestyles. And therein lies the real danger t ur planet, a danger which cannt be ignred any lnger.(所有这些肯定都是问题的核心:广告的真正影响是推广不可持续的生活方式。这就是我们星球面临的真正危险,一种不能再被忽视的危险。)”可知,本段讲的是虚假广告会引发民众不可持续的生活方式和地球的不可持续发展,所以为了解决这一核心问题,需要采取行动打击虚假广告。故选A项。
第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,共10分)
根据短文内容,从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。
An aplgy can achieve great things fr bth the givers and the receivers althugh nbdy likes t admit that they were wrng.
An aplgy is crucial t ur physical health. When we acknwledge that we are wrngders and express ur guilt t thers, we will free urselves frm the uncmfrtable state. This act feels like a weight n us has been lifted. 35 Research shwed that heart rate, sweat levels and facial tensin decreased in victims f wrngs even when they simply imagined receiving an aplgy.
Aplgizing affects us nt just physically, but als mentally. 36 When presented with an aplgy, the victims may view us as imperfect human beings and find it easier t give frgiveness. In a pwerful piece in Psychlgy Tday, writer Beverly Engel described hw a simple “I’m srry” frm her mther, after being estranged frm each ther fr three years, made her relieved emtinally. But let’s be real, aplgizing can be difficult.
37 We shuld recgnize ur actin did hurt smene even if ur intentin may nt have been s. Instead f making excuses fr what we did, try t bear respnsibility and ffer a prmise t take actin s that we will nt repeat the behavir in future. 38
Of curse, the mst effective aplgies ften bring a cst t ur dignity, since we have t admit that we are wrng in frnt f thers r many peple. 39 As is knwn, it is ne f the mst psitive actins we can take when we d smething wrng—fr urselves, the thers, and the relatinship. S, g ahead, aplgize a little mre ften fr the things wrth aplgizing fr.
A.There are agreed-upn ways t express ur aplgy t thers.
B.It’s a way f shwing the price we paid fr the wrnged actin.
C.A gd aplgy affects the health f thse n the receiving end, t.
D.But this can ften be minr cmpared t the benefits f a prper aplgy.
E.This means we shuld take the blame and nt try t justify it r explain it away.
F.Aplgize fr what yu did rather than what ther peple might have thught abut it.
G.It has the ability t disarm thers f their anger and t prevent further misunderstandings.
【答案】35.C 36.G 37.A 38.E 39.D
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了道歉对我们的好处。
35.根据上文“When we acknwledge that we are wrngders and express ur guilt t thers, we will free urselves frm the uncmfrtable state. This act feels like a weight n us has been lifted.(当我们承认自己是做错事的人,并向别人表达我们的内疚时,我们就会从不舒服的状态中解脱出来。这一举动让我们感觉卸下了负担)”和下文“Research shwed that heart rate, sweat levels and facial tensin decreased in victims f wrngs even when they simply imagined receiving an aplgy.(研究表明,即使只是想象得到道歉,被伤害者的心率、排汗量和面部紧张程度也会降低)”可知,道歉不仅让做错事的一方感觉卸下负担,也对收到道歉的人有好处。故C项“A gd aplgy affects the health f thse n the receiving end, t.(一个好的道歉也会影响收到道歉的人的健康)”符合题意。故选C。
36.根据主旨句“Aplgizing affects us nt just physically, but als mentally.(道歉不仅会影响我们的身体,还会影响我们的精神)”推知,空处应陈述道歉在精神方面给人们带来的好处。G项“It has the ability t disarm thers f their anger and t prevent further misunderstandings.(它有能力消除别人的愤怒,防止进一步的误解)”符合题意,anger属于精神范畴。故选G。
37.空处为本段主旨句。根据下文“We shuld recgnize ur actin did hurt smene even if ur intentin may nt have been s. Instead f making excuses fr what we did, try t bear respnsibility and ffer a prmise t take actin s that we will nt repeat the behavir in future. (我们应该认识到我们的行为确实伤害了某人,即使我们的意图可能并非如此。与其为我们所做的事找借口,不如试着承担责任,承诺采取行动,这样我们以后就不会再犯同样的行为了)”可知,认识到自己确实伤害某人,与其找借口不如主动承担责任,承诺以后绝不再犯。结合常识可知,上述道歉的方法是大家公认的方法。故A项“There are agreed-upn ways t express ur aplgy t thers.(我们向他人表达歉意的方式已经达成一致)”符合题意,下文具体陈述这些一致的方法是什么。故选A。
38.空处位于段末,应承接上文。根据上文“Instead f making excuses fr what we did, try t bear respnsibility and ffer a prmise t take actin s that we will nt repeat the behavir in future.(与其为我们所做的事找借口,不如试着承担责任,承诺采取行动,这样我们以后就不会再犯同样的行为了)”可知,这样做意味着我们应该承担责任,不再辩解。E项“This means we shuld take the blame and nt try t justify it r explain it away.(这意味着我们应该承担责任,而不是试图为其辩护或解释)”符合题意,是对上文的进一步解释。故选E。
39.根据上文“Of curse, the mst effective aplgies ften bring a cst t ur dignity, since we have t admit that we are wrng in frnt f thers r many peple.(当然,最有效的道歉往往会给我们的尊严带来代价,因为我们不得不在别人或很多人面前承认自己错了)”可知,最有效的道歉方式往往有失尊严。根据下文“As is knwn, it is ne f the mst psitive actins we can take when we d smething wrng—fr urselves, the thers, and the relatinship. S, g ahead, aplgize a little mre ften fr the things wrth aplgizing fr.(众所周知,当我们为自己、他人和关系做错事时,这是我们可以采取的最积极的行动之一)”可知,做错了事,就应该道歉,这是可以采取的最积极的行动之一。由此可知,和道歉带来的好处相比,尊严受到一点伤害是可以接受的。D项“But this can ften be minr cmpared t the benefits f a prper aplgy.(但与一个恰当的道歉所带来的好处相比,这往往是微不足道的)”符合题意。故选D。
第三部分 书面表达(共两节,32分)
第一节(共4小题;第40、41题各2分,第42题3分,第43题5分,共12分)
阅读下面短文,根据题目要求用英文回答问题。
Befre ending upn a supermarket shelf, an avcad(牛油果) has prduced 1.3 kilgrams f carbn int the atmsphere. Its prductin alne cnsumes 60 gallns f water. Despite this, the fruit will ften be thrwn away as husehld waste.
Husehld fd waste is the result f mismanagement. Much f the waste is avidable and the fd may have been eaten had it been better managed. T reduce husehld fd waste, a grwing number f fd retailers decide t remve date labelling(标签), such as the “use-by” r “best-befre” date, frm sme fresh fd items.
Past studies have cnfirmed the imprtance f date labelling. Almst 60% f western Eurpean cnsumers surveyed said they “always” check date labels while purchasing. But date labelling has lng cme under criticism because failure t truly understand date labelling ften leads t unreasnable decisin making. Indeed, cnsumers cmmnly dn’t accept edible(可食用的), but date-expired(过期的) fd.
The remval f date labelling is therefre a prmising start. Withut date labels, infrmatin that may affect cnsumers’ understanding f what is edible, is remved. Instead, cnsumers are encuraged t sense-check fresh fd items.
In the case f an avcad, the advice given t cnsumers is that when ripe, it shuld have a “pleasant and slightly sweet arma(气味)”, while the skin shuld be “dark green r brwn”. Infrmatin is als prvided n hw an avcad shuld lk, taste, and feel when “verripe”. It is hped that a better infrmed cnsumer will be less likely t blindly thrw away fd due t an expiratin date.
40.What d fd retailers decide t d t reduce husehld fd waste?
41.Why has date labelling lng been criticized?
42.Please decide which part is false in the fllwing statement, then underline it and explain why.
If cnsumers can be better infrmed, they will nt accept edible, but date-expired fd.
43.Once date labels are remved frm sme fresh fd items, what prblem(s) might be caused? (In abut 40 wrds)
【答案】40.Fd retailers decide t remve date labelling.
Because failure t truly understand date labelling ften leads t unreasnable decisin making.
42.If cnsumers can be better infrmed, they will nt accept edible, but date-expired fd.
Because cnsumers are encuraged t sense-check fresh fd items, and the infrmatin is als prvided n hw the fd shuld lk, taste, and feel when “verripe”. S if cnsumers can be better infrmed, they will be likely t accept edible, but date-expired fd.
43.Remving date labels frm sme fresh fd items can prevent cnsumers frm knwing the edible infrmatin f the fd.Withut date labels, cnsumers are encuraged t sense-check fresh fd items.
【导语】这是一篇新闻报道。文章主要讲述了为了减少家庭食品浪费,越来越多的食品零售商决定取消一些新鲜食品的日期标签,例如“使用日期”或“最佳食用日期”。尽管人们在购买食品时,大部分人会查看日期标签,但是日期标签有时候却对人有误导作用而造成浪费。在施行取消标签后,人们可以通过“望闻”的方法判断食物。
40.考查细节理解。根据文章第二段内容“T reduce husehld fd waste, a grwing number f fd retailers decide t remve date labelling, such as the ‘use-by’ r ‘best-befre’ date, frm sme fresh fd items.(为了减少家庭食物浪费,越来越多的食品零售商决定从一些新鲜食品上去掉日期标签,比如“截止食用日期”或“最佳食用日期”。)”可知,食品零售商决定去掉一些新鲜食品上的日期标签以减少浪费。故答案为:Fd retailers decide t remve date labelling.
41.考查细节理解。根据文章第三段内容“But date labelling has lng cme under criticism because failure t truly understand date labelling ften leads t unreasnable decisin making.(但日期标签长期以来一直受到批评,因为未能真正理解日期标签往往会导致不合理的决策。)”可知,日期标签长期受到批评是因为日期标签未能得到真正理解而导致不合理的购买决策。故答案为:Because failure t truly understand date labelling ften leads t unreasnable decisin making.
42.考查细节理解。根据文章第五段内容“Infrmatin is als prvided n hw an avcad shuld lk, taste, and feel when “verripe”. It is hped that a better infrmed cnsumer will be less likely t blindly thrw away fd due t an expiratin date. (还提供了牛油果“过熟”时的外观、味道和感觉的信息。人们希望,一个更了解情况的消费者不太可能因为过期而盲目扔掉食物。)”可知,“If cnsumers can be better infrmed, they will nt accept edible, but date-expired fd.(如果消费者能更明智,他们不会接受可食用的,但过期的食品。)”中“they will nt accept edible, but date-expired fd”是错误的,如果消费者对食物信息更了解一些,那么就有可能接受可食用但过期的食品。故答案为:If cnsumers can be better infrmed, they will nt accept edible, but date-expired fd. Because cnsumers are encuraged t sense-check fresh fd items, and the infrmatin is als prvided n hw the fd shuld lk, taste, and feel when “verripe”. S if cnsumers can be better infrmed, they will be likely t accept edible, but date-expired fd.
43.本题为开放性试题,要求考生结合文章根据自己的见解进行作答,言之有理即可。供参考:根据文章第四段“Withut date labels, infrmatin that may affect cnsumers' understanding f what is edible, is remved.
(如果没有日期标签,可能会影响消费者了解什么是可食用的的信息被删除。)”可知,没有日期标签,消费者可能无法了解该食品的可食用信息。故答案为Remving date labels frm sme fresh fd items can prevent cnsumers frm knwing the edible infrmatin f the fd.Withut date labels, cnsumers are encuraged t sense-check fresh fd items.
