AAlaska Railroad#19 of 270 things to do in Anchorage, Alaska • Scenic RailroadsAboutCompleted in 1923, the widely-known AlaskaRailroad connects many of Alaska’s most populardestinations: Anchorage, Talkeetna, Denali NationalPark, Fairbanks, Girdwood, Seward, Whittier and theSpencer Glacier Whistle Stop. Daily summerdepartures and our knowledgeable Alaskan staff makeit easy to plan everything from day trips to multi-day Alaska vacations including explorations and accommodations. Read more﹀21. What does the Alaska Railroad connect?A. Scenic train ride experiences.B. Knowledgeable Alaskan staff.C. Popular destinations in Alaska.D. Daily summer departures.22. What made David A unhappy with the trip? A. Narrow and unclean seats. B. Bad weather.C. No facilities for the disabled.D. Impolite staff.23. What did ChrisK20 and Tien N have in common? A. They thought highly of the train trip. B. They complained about the food.C. They were only satisfied with the view.D. They travelled with their children.BThere is an embroidered (刺绣的) saying that has hung on the wall in my parents’ house, declaring “I hope my children look back on today and see a parent who had time to play.

It was 8:50 pm and dinner was still unavailable. There were no food options for children. My child has food restrictions, but the conductor Vern was so rude that the whole car was shocked with his behavior toward a 10-year-old child.will be years for cleaning and cooking, but children grow up when we’re not looking.”The saying made me uneasy as a parent, particularly during the year I turned 38 with my own three daughters, since I could be both aware of the future ‒ when my children will leave ‒ and yet unable to appreciate every single moment.Parents admit that they are not always looking. Yet the mother in the embroidery is fully present with her children. She has left the housework at home and come out here to be with her three children, who are throwing red and gold leaves at her, like the photo my father took for us on a weekend outing. All of us are laughing heartily.My mother said she sewed the embroidery because she embraced the philosophy and spent time playing with her children. Yet I remember my mother driving me to the mall, the movies, the friends’ houses but I struggle to remember her playing with me. I once took my young children to the library storytimes, to the children’s museum and I dutifully followed them around. However, they recall none of it. All those years I invested in making my children feel loved and none of the memories have stayed with them.Then there are years for cleaning and cooking, and I do not always have time to play. Cleaning and cooking is part of being a parent, part of caretaking, part of how I show love. I remember my mother cleaning and cooking. When I think of all the meals she made for us and our clothes she washed, I know that’s a mother’s love language.I suppose that is why the embroidery exists. The embroidered saying is a mother’s love for her children, which is always looking.24. Why did the saying on the wall disturb the author?A. She was reminded of her childhood.B. Her children were ready to leave her.C. She wasn’t always with her children.D. Her mother wasn’t satisfied with her.25. What is the fourth paragraph mainly about?A. Her regrets about her life.B. The time wasted on the children.C. Her mother’s false memory.D. A mother’s unremembered devotion.26. How does the author view cleaning and cooking as a mother?A. Necessary tasks that she wishes she could avoid.B. Burdens that take away from time with her children.C. A way to express her love and care for her family.D. A source of happy memories from her childhood.27. Which of the following is the best title of this text?A. She Is Always LookingB. An Inspiring SayingC. We Are Playing TogetherD. An Unforgettable OutingCIf you were like the 847 U.S. consumers surveyed in a University of Massachusetts Amherst study, you’d prefer glass and believe it was the most sustainable choice. And you all would be mistaken.“Glass was the most sought-after and most highly valued packaging type,” says Nomzamo Dlamini, lead author of the paper and a Ph.D. scholar in food science. “However, it turns out that glass is among the least sustainable.”Consumers ranked packaging choices from most to least sustainable as follows: glass, carton (纸板), canned, and plastic. But in the case of single-serve orange juice, the most sustainable choice is actually a carton, followed by plastic, then canned, and finally, glass, despite that food packaging sustainability can vary depending on other factors like container and weight.Lifecycle assessments by experts indicate that producing and recycling glass requires significantly more energy compared to plastic, which not only has lower production and end-of-life impacts but is also lighter, reducing transportation energy. Additionally, the steam aseptic sealing (无菌密封) process for plastic containers is more energy-efficient compared to the retort (蒸馏) system used for glass.Using a questionnaire that models real-life situations where consumers evaluate various options and make trade-offs, Dlamini aimed to figure out what consumers believe and prefer about packaging choices.Dlamini points out a mismatch: while many consumers intend to purchase sustainable packaging, in the end the top motivating factor was price—particularly the lowest price—followed by packaging type, product claim and packaging claim. So, the ideal orange juice option for consumers, based on the survey, is priced at $1.10 per 12 oz, packaged in glass, locally produced and labelled as 100% recyclable.The message to the food industry is that consumers are motivated to choose sustainable packaging, as long as the price is right. “These options should be distinctly marked as environmentally friendly, effective and affordable to increase consumers’ motivation and adoption of sustainable packaging for food and drinks,” the paper states.28.What was believed to be the least sustainable packaging option by US consumers?A. Canned.B. Glass.C. Plastic.D. Carton.29.What is a feature of plastic according to Paragraph 4?A. It is cheap to produce.B. It allows light to pass through.C. It takes less energy to recycle.D. It is more flexible to be packed.30.According to Paragraph 6, there is a disagreement between _______.A. packaging claim and scientific facts.B. high price and unsatisfactory quality.C. product claim and their practical performance.D. consumers’ intentions and their actual behavior.31.What does Dlamini suggest the food industry do in the last paragraph?A. Price smartly and promote widely.B. Label clearly and price reasonably.C. Package securely and deliver quickly.D. Research effectively and invest wisely.D“Holiday” or “vacation,” “my friend’s cat” or “the cat of my friend” —in our language, there are different ways of expressing the same things and concepts. But can these choices affect our inclination to cooperate with certain individuals? A research team led by Theresa Matzinger from the University of Vienna investigated this and found that people are more likely to team up with those who use similar linguistic (语言的) expressions in a conversation.In an experiment, 100 English-speaking study participants each described pictures for two conversation partners. The pictures showed situations that the participants could describe using two different grammatical constructions that meant the same thing, such as “John gives Mary the book” or “John gives the book to Mary.” Next, the participants’ roles were switched and they received picture descriptions of their partners. Finally, when they had to decide whom they wanted to cooperate with for a subsequent game, most participants chose people who spoke similarly and used the same grammatical construction.In a follow-up experiment with the same participants, researchers tried to get a better sense of this phenomenon. They questioned whether it was due to recognizing similar speakers as part of their social group, which enhanced cooperation, or because similar speech indicated a willingness to adjust one’s behavior to fit with others. This time, participants had to name pictures using the grammatical construction that sounded less natural to them. When choosing cooperation partners afterward, they favored those who matched their natural language use over those who resembled (相似) the language they used in the experiment. This suggests that a sense of belonging to the same social group, based on natural linguistic expression, is the more decisive factor in choosing cooperation partners.“Our study shows that even small linguistic differences can affect the way we recognize and respond to others,” Matzinger summarizes. The researchers hope to use the results to better understand how cooperative decisions are made within linguistically diverse groups andhelp reduce prejudices against people who speak differently.32.What does the underlined word “inclination” in Paragraph 1 mean?A. techniqueB. preferenceC. performanceD. responsibility33.What can be learned about the first experiment?A. It allows the use of multiple languages.B. It provides pictures with open interpretations.C. It evaluates participants on their grammar use.D. It involves taking turns with picture descriptions.34.What does similar language use indicate concerning partners?A. A friendly character.B. A cooperative attitude.C. A common social identity.D. A high level of adaptability.35.Where can the findings of the study be applied to?A. Public speeches on TV.B. Cross-cultural team building.C. Standardized academic exams.D. Human-computer conversations.第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中，选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

I remember the look on your face as you rushed out from your dorm and slammed directly into me. You knocked me over, both metaphorically (比喻地) and physically. You were dressed in a sports bra and tight little shorts and I was suddenly feeling a little bitter that I was picking your roommate up for dinner and not you.No, it can't start that way.Who starts a speech with a memory about what bra someone was wearing? How about this?I remember staring at the projector image of stars in Astronomy and thinking only of your eyes. I only signed up for Astronomy because you said were taking it. You hadn't said it to me, of course, but to one of your girlfriends. I was behind you in the sandwich line at the student center and l heard you ask that redhead girl—Jessica Randolph, I think her name was. Well, it's Johnson, now; she's married with a baby on the way. I heard you ask Jessica if she thought the professor would talk about the possibility of aliens. That was all it took. I signed up for Astronomy almost immediately.That sounds like I'm a huge stalker (跟踪狂). I won't share that story. No one wants to hear about aliens and about the stars in your eyes. No one wants to hear about Jessica Johnson. Jessica and her husband will be there today. She'll cry. I'm certain that she'll cry. A lot of people will, I'd assume.Will I?I can't think about that. I don't want to mess things up in front of everyone. All of our family and friends will be there, watching, and I’ve never been good at public speaking.I remember sitting next to you on the couch while I waited for your roommate to get ready for dinner. She took so long to do her hair and makeup. It was intentional, I think. She thought it was classy to make me wait. You never did.Anyway, I was waiting for your roommate to be ready for our date. All I wanted to do was put my hand over yours as you changed the channels. Something funny would happen on the television and you'd laugh so hard you'd snort. I loved you even then, I think.I can't talk about that. People will think Tm a cheater. I never cheated. I was set up with your roommate on a blind date. It was you, you, always you from the moment I saw you until today. I broke up with her that night, I remember. We never even made it out of the parking lot. I don't know what made me do it, I just knew that whenever I closed my eyes I couldn't picture anything but your face.Today is so important, so critical. I can't mess up. Not when you'll be there, so peaceful and lovely.Another, then.What about the day I proposed? I had planned it out so carefully and nothing went right. The fower order was wrong. I burned my new shirt with the iron. The sweater I had ordered for your stupid dog--the one that read, "will you marry my daddy?" —arrived in the mail just that morning and was two sizes too small. I squeezed him into it anyway, and it somehow made his already giant head look even bigger. Maybe that's why you couldn't stop laughing when you saw him. You were laughing—loudly—your dress half on and your nails half painted. I had come to get you for our date too early. I couldn't help it. I was sweating through my burnt shirt and holding wilted flowers, kneeling like a fool. You didn't say yes or no, but the stars in your eyes were confirmation enough.I can share that. I've shared it a hundred times before. Everyone wanted to know the engagement story, which led us to the altar (圣坛).The altar.I stood up there and stammered (口吃)through the speech I had prepared for you—through the promise I had written for you. It was nowhere near as hard as this. My vows (誓言), then, included that eternal drivel, for better or for worse. Till death do us part.How was I to know?How was I to know there was another speech to write, another vow to make?What story do I share, standing before our friends and family—before you?

There will be years for cleaning and cooking, but children grow up when we’re not looking.”The saying made me uneasy as a parent, particularly during the year I turned 38 with my own three daughters, since I could be both aware of the future ‒ when my children will leave ‒ and yet unable to appreciate every single moment.Parents admit that they are not always looking. Yet the mother in the embroidery is fully present with her children. She has left the housework at home and come out here to be with her three children, who are throwing red and gold leaves at her, like the photo my father took for us on a weekend outing. All of us are laughing heartily.My mother said she sewed the embroidery because she embraced the philosophy and spent time playing with her children. Yet I remember my mother driving me to the mall, the movies, the friends’ houses but I struggle to remember her playing with me. I once took my young children to the library storytimes, to the children’s museum and I dutifully followed them around. However, they recall none of it. All those years I invested in making my children feel loved and none of the memories have stayed with them.Then there are years for cleaning and cooking, and I do not always have time to play. Cleaning and cooking is part of being a parent, part of caretaking, part of how I show love. I remember my mother cleaning and cooking. When I think of all the meals she made for us and our clothes she washed, I know that’s a mother’s love language.I suppose that is why the embroidery exists. The embroidered saying is a mother’s love for her children, which is always looking.24. Why did the saying on the wall disturb the author?A. She was reminded of her childhood.B. Her children were ready to leave her.C. She wasn’t always with her children.D. Her mother wasn’t satisfied with her.25. What is the fourth paragraph mainly about?A. Her regrets about her life.B. The time wasted on the children.C. Her mother’s false memory.D. A mother’s unremembered devotion.26. How does the author view cleaning and cooking as a mother?A. Necessary tasks that she wishes she could avoid.B. Burdens that take away from time with her children.C. A way to express her love and care for her family.D. A source of happy memories from her childhood.27. Which of the following is the best title of this text?A. She Is Always LookingB. An Inspiring SayingC. We Are Playing TogetherD. An Unforgettable OutingCIf you were like the 847 U.S. consumers surveyed in a University of Massachusetts Amherst study, you’d prefer glass and believe it was the most sustainable choice. And you all would be mistaken.“Glass was the most sought-after and most highly valued packaging type,” says Nomzamo Dlamini, lead author of the paper and a Ph.D. scholar in food science. “However, it turns out that glass is among the least sustainable.”Consumers ranked packaging choices from most to least sustainable as follows: glass, carton (纸板), canned, and plastic. But in the case of single-serve orange juice, the most sustainable choice is actually a carton, followed by plastic, then canned, and finally, glass, despite that food packaging sustainability can vary depending on other factors like container and weight.Lifecycle assessments by experts indicate that producing and recycling glass requires significantly more energy compared to plastic, which not only has lower production and end-of-life impacts but is also lighter, reducing transportation energy. Additionally, the steam aseptic sealing (无菌密封) process for plastic containers is more energy-efficient compared to the retort (蒸馏) system used for glass.Using a questionnaire that models real-life situations where consumers evaluate various options and make trade-offs, Dlamini aimed to figure out what consumers believe and prefer about packaging choices.Dlamini points out a mismatch: while many consumers intend to purchase sustainable packaging, in the end the top motivating factor was price—particularly the lowest price—followed by packaging type, product claim and packaging claim. So, the ideal orange juice option for consumers, based on the survey, is priced at $1.10 per 12 oz, packaged in glass, locally produced and labelled as 100% recyclable.The message to the food industry is that consumers are motivated to choose sustainable packaging, as long as the price is right. “These options should be distinctly marked as environmentally friendly, effective and affordable to increase consumers’ motivation and adoption of sustainable packaging for food and drinks,” the paper states.28. What was believed to be the least sustainable packaging option by US consumers?A. Canned.B. Glass.C. Plastic.D. Carton.29. What is a feature of plastic according to Paragraph 4?A. It is cheap to produce.B. It allows light to pass through.C. It takes less energy to recycle.D. It is more flexible to be packed.30. According to Paragraph 6, there is a disagreement between _______.A. packaging claim and scientific facts.B. high price and unsatisfactory quality.C. product claim and their practical performance.D. consumers’ intentions and their actual behavior.31. What does Dlamini suggest the food industry do in the last paragraph?A. Price smartly and promote widely.B. Label clearly and price reasonably.C. Package securely and deliver quickly.D. Research effectively and invest wisely.D“Holiday” or “vacation,” “my friend’s cat” or “the cat of my friend” — in our language, there are different ways of expressing the same things and concepts. But can these choices affect our inclination to cooperate with certain individuals? A research team led by Theresa Matzinger from the University of Vienna investigated this and found that people are more likely to team up with those who use similar linguistic (语言的) expressions in a conversation.In an experiment, 100 English-speaking study participants each described pictures for two conversation partners. The pictures showed situations that the participants could describe using two different grammatical constructions that meant the same thing, such as “John gives Mary the book” or “John gives the book to Mary.” Next, the participants’ roles were switched and they received picture descriptions of their partners. Finally, when they had to decide whom they wanted to cooperate with for a subsequent game, most participants chose people who spoke similarly and used the same grammatical construction.In a follow-up experiment with the same participants, researchers tried to get a better sense of this phenomenon. They questioned whether it was due to recognizing similar speakers as part of their social group, which enhanced cooperation, or because similar speech indicated a willingness to adjust one’s behavior to fit with others. This time, participants had to name pictures using the grammatical construction that sounded less natural to them. When choosing cooperation partners afterward, they favored those who matched their natural language use over those who resembled (相似) the language they used in the experiment. This suggests that a sense of belonging to the same social group, based on natural linguistic expression, is the more decisive factor in choosing cooperation partners.“Our study shows that even small linguistic differences can affect the way we recognize and respond to others,” Matzinger summarizes. The researchers hope to use the results to better understand how cooperative decisions are made within linguistically diverse groups andhelp reduce prejudices against people who speak differently.32. What does the underlined word “inclination” in Paragraph 1 mean?A. techniqueB. preferenceC. performanceD. responsibility33. What can be learned about the first experiment?A. It allows the use of multiple languages.B. It provides pictures with open interpretations.C. It evaluates participants on their grammar use.D. It involves taking turns with picture descriptions.34. What does similar language use indicate concerning partners?A. A friendly character.B. A cooperative attitude.C. A common social identity.D. A high level of adaptability.35.Where can the findings of the study be applied to?A. Public speeches on TV.B. Cross-cultural team building.C. Standardized academic exams.D. Human-computer conversations.第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中，选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。
