I was 16when my father finally decided he would send me to wilderness camp for sever al months．He had threatened to do it many times before, but my mother had always manag ed to prevent him from doing so．This time he insisted on doing it．The latest incident was the last straw．Impulsively（冲动地）, I had pushed Mr．Ford, my math teacher, down a flight of steps at school．He broke hi s arm in two places．Anyway, he had agreed not to accuse me as a favor to my dad, who was in the middle of a tight race for sheriff（执法behavior had my dad’s closest advisor talking．官） in our town．But my reckless_“John,he’s your son and he’s a kid, but he is dragging you down, ”I heard Jake Hutch tell my dad through his closed office door the night after I pushed Mr．Ford．“If you can’t make yo ur son obey the rules, how can you make the law obeyed in this town? ”So, off to Pisgah National Forest I went．I imagined hours of untold abuse at the hands of s ome strong sergeants（军士）．I was determined no to be broken．I was who I was．Nearly every day for six months, a small group of other troubled teens and I carried our 30 -pound backpacks on a difficult journey covering about 10miles．We hiked in a rough wilder ness that seemed untouched by civilization．Our sergeants were firm but kind, not frightening as I had imagined．We learned how to make a fire without matches and create a shelter with branches and grass．We learned whic h plants were safe to eat out in the wild．I felt myself change．I was calm and often reflectiv e．My old, impulsive self was gone．One morning, six months later, my dad came to pick me up．I ran to hug him and saw relie f and love in his eyes．“So what’s it like being sheriff? ”I asked on the ride home．“I lost the race, Danny, ”he said．“I’m sorry, Dad．”I knew my behavior probably had a lot to do with the defeat．Dad squeezed my shoulder and brought me close．“As long as I don’t ever lose you, I’m oka y．”（1）The author was finally sent to wilderness because________．A.he could learn how to survive in the wild．B.his teacher insisted on giving him a lesson．C.he pushed his math teacher down the stairs．D.his mother feared that he would be accused．（2）The underlined word“reckless”in Paragraph 2probably means________．A.selfish.B.careless.C.rude.D.reasonable．（3）What can we learn about the author from the passage？________A.He changed a lot after the camp．B.He was not satisfied with his life in the camp．C.He was still what he used to be after the camp．D.He made enemies with other troubled teens at the camp．（4）How did the author’s father feel at the end of the story？________A.Grateful．B.Annoyed．C.Disappointed.D.Relieved．13. You may have experienced the annoyance of being fined because of parking illegally or f inding your car towed away（拖走）after leaving it parked somewhere for a couple of minutes．But now a high-tech car sticker that’s designed to be stuck to a car’s windscreen could help motorists avoid s uch a situation．The TowStop sticker sends a text message to a driver when touched by a traffic policeman, to allow motorists to send a reply and give them time to move their cars immediately．Frank furt-based IT consultant, Daniel Kalliontzis, came up with the idea and is raising money to put his ￡43sticker into production．Car owners can put the sticker inside their car’s windscreen, having set it up with key infor mation, such as their phone number．The slim design will include a sensor（传感器）that, when touched by a traffic policeman, will send a text message warning a driver of a poss ible fine．The driver could then type a reply for the policeman using a smartphone, which wi ll appear on the sticker’s screen．The smart sticker system will rely on the good will of traffic policemen and in a way, a Ger man law．The law states: an officer has to choose the most efficient and inexpensive way for the car owner to remove the vehicle．It could be cheaper for the government to call the driv er than to tow his car．Mail Online asked the Department of Transport whether the sticker could be used in the UK in a similar way．A spokesman said, "In England there is no legal duty to warn the motorisnot to issue a tic t before issuing the ticket．However, a policeman does have the discretion_ket if he doesn’t think the situation is that bad or he just wants to issue a warning．"So far, Mr．Kalliontzis has raised just over￡2, 362of his￡39, 381goal．If he manages to raise the money, the stickers will be shipped in June 2015．But it appears that car owners using the smart system could get some unnecessary warnin g messages, because anyone could touch the smart sticker．（1）The author wrote the third paragraph to________．A.explain how a smart car sticker works．B.advise drivers to buy a car sticker．C.show the importance of a sensor．D.tell drivers how to park a car．（2）We may infer from the text that in Britain________．A.car owners don’t have to worry about a parking ticket．B.smart car stickers wouldn’t work as well as in Germany．C.traffic policemen prefer to call a driver rather than tow his car．D.the Department of Transport thinks highly of smart car stickers．（3）The underlined word“discretion”in Paragraph 5can best be replaced by“________”．A.trouble ． B.pressure.C.freedom ．D.opportunity．（4）What would be the best title for the text？________A.Daniel Kalliontzis-a great inventor.B.Environment-friendly car stickers．C.Parking systems in Europe.D.End of the parking ticket？．14. With the development of science and technology, new inventions, especially new electro nic products, have made people’s lives easy and convenient．But as the saying puts: A coin h as two sides．One day, I was walking in the park with a friend and his cell phone rang, interrupting our c onversation．There we were, walking and talking on a beautiful sunny day and…I became in visible, absent from the conversation．The telephone used to connect you to the absent．Now it makes people sitting next to you feel absent．Why is it that the more connected we get, the more disconnected I feel? Every a dvance in communications technology is a tragedy to the closeness of human interaction．W ith email and instant messaging over the Internet, we can now communicate without seeing or talking to one another．With voice mail, you can conduct entire conversations without ev er reaching anyone．If my mom has a question, I just leave the answer on her machine．As almost every contact we can imagine between human beings gets automated, the alienation（疏远） index goes up．You can’t even call a person to get the phone number of another person any more．Directory assistance is almost always fully automated．Pumping petrol at the station? Why say good morning to the attendant when you can swip e（刷）your credit card at the pump and save yourself the bother of human contact?Making a deposit at the bank? Why talk to a teller who might live in the neighborhood whe n you can just insert your card into ATM?Pretty soon you won’t have the burden of making eye contact at the grocery shop．Some s upermarket chains are using a self-scanner so you can check yourself out, avoiding those check-out people who look at you and ask how you are doing．I am not against modern technology．I own a cell phone, an ATM card, a voice mail system, and an email account．Giving them up isn’t wise…they’re a great help to us．It’s some of th eir possible consequences that make me feel uneasy．More and more, I find myself hiding behind e-mail to do a job meant for conversation．Or being relieved that voice mail picked up a call be cause I didn’t really have time to talk．The communications industry devoted to helping me keep in touch is making me lonelier．So I’ve put myself on technology restriction: no instant messaging, with people who live ne ar me, no cell phoning in the presence of friends, no letting the voice mail pick up when I’m a t home．（1）Which of the following would be the best title of the passage？________A.The Advance of Communications Technology．B.The Consequences of Modern Technology．C.The Process of Communications Revolution．D.The Automation of Modern Communications．（2）Paragraphs 5to 7are listed as examples，which show that the use of modern communications is________．A.encouraging ．B.disappointing ．C.satisfying．D.embarrassing．（3）The passage implies that________．A.modern technology is bridging the people．B.modern technology is separating the people．C.modern technology is developing too rapidly．D.modern technology is interrupting our lives．（4）What does the writer think to do with the modern technology？________A.We may use them no matter what others are doing．B.We can throw them away and return to the ancient．C.We can be far away from them forever．D.We can use them less and communicate with the people around us．第二节（共1小题；每小题10分，满分10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．选项中有两项为多余选项．15.Some animals can be trained to help humans．For example，specially trained dogs help blind people walk around the town safely．Some kinds of monke ys can be taught things too．（1）________The monkeys pick up the phone when it rings，carry shopping bags and do housework．In the wild，animals and humans are not usually friends．（2）________In Africa，the honey-guide bird works with humans to find food．The bird likes to eat the grubs （幼虫）-a type of insect that lives inside a beehive （蜂巢）．It knows how to find beehives but it can’t open them and get the grubs．People like to eat honey，but they aren’t very good at finding beehives．（3）________ The bird flies to a beehive and people follow it．When the people open the beehive a nd take the honey，they give the grubs to the bird．In Laguna in the south of Brazil，fishermen and dolphins work as a team．The ocean isn’t very clean，so the fishermen can’t see the fish．（4）________When the dolphins find a large group of fish，they make a noise to tell the fishermen．Then the dolphins push the fish to the beach．The f ishermen wait in the water near the beach and catch a lot of fish in their nets．The fisherme n’s nets make it easier for the dolphins to catch fish too．In Laguna，fishermen and dolphins have been working together for many years．（5）________Meanwhile，the dolphins must be happy to help because they teach their babies how to work with the hu mans!A．They attack each other for food or something else．B．So the bird and the people help each other．C．They can learn how to help people who can’t use their arms or legs．D．In fact，they usually help to get enough food for their babies．E．The fishermen teach their children how to work with the dolphins．F．However，there are a few interesting examples where they can work together．G．However，dolphins can find them easily by using sounds．第三部分英语知识运用（共两节，满分30分）第1节完形填空（共1小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分）阅读下面短文，从短文后所给各题的四个选项（A、B、C、D）中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑．16.

（2）C 细节理解题．根据“they feature good quality merchandise at affordable prices．”可知综合货品商店的特色之一是可接受的价格，故选C项．; （3）C 细节理解题．根据短文最后一段“They usually offer merchandise with slight flaws（瑕疵） and remainders from the last season or the previous year．”可知他们经常处理一些有一点小毛病的过季衣服，而不是严重的质量问题，故选C项．12. 【答案】C; C; A; D【解析】本文讲述作者在学校非常冲动地把数学老师推下楼，作者被迫进入野营进行训练，虽然比赛中没有赢，但父亲对于儿子的改变非常欣慰，认为只要不失去儿子，一切没有问题．; ; ;【解答】（1） C细节题．根据第二段第一、二句“The latest incident was the last straw．Impulsively（冲动地），I had pushed Mr．Ford，my math teacher，down a flight of steps at school．”可知，最终促使父亲决定把“我”送去野营的因素是“我”把数学老师从楼梯上推了下去．因此C项正确．本题的混淆项为B项，根据文章第二段第四句“Anyway，he had agreed not to accuse me as a favor to my dad，who was in the middle of a tight race for sheriff（执法官） in our town．”可知，老师并没有想要教训“我”，相反，他看在父亲的面子上答应不会起诉“我”，因此B项错误．A项文章虽有提到，但并不是父亲送“我”去野营的目的，故错误．D项文章未提及．故正确答案为C．; （2） C 推断题．结合第二段第二句“Impulsively（冲动地），I had pushed Mr．Ford，my math teacher，down a flight of steps at school．”可知，“我”一冲动把数学老师从楼梯上推了下午，这种行为是很粗鲁无礼的（rude）．selfish 意为“自私的”，careless 意为“粗心的”，reasonable 意为“合理的”，均不符合文意．故正确答案为C．; （3） A 推断题．结合第六段倒数后三句“I felt myself change．I was calm and often reflective．My old，impulsive self was gone．”可知，“我”在这次野营之后改变了很多，不再那么冲动．因此C项错误，A项正确．B项，“他对野营的生活不满意”．结合文章第六段的描述，野营教官坚定而友善，“我”在这次野营中学到了很多生存技能，个性也变好了很多，由此可推知“我”对野营的生活颇为满意．因此B项错误．D项，“他和野营的其他小伙伴为敌”．文章对此并未提及，仅提及他们在野营期间一起学习生存技能．因此D项错误．故正确答案为A．; （4） D 细节题．结合第七段最后一句“I ran to hug him and saw a relief and love in his eyes．”可知，最后作者野营结束，父子相见，儿子在父亲的眼中看到了爱，父亲感到如释重负（Relieved）．grateful 意为“感激的”，annoyed 意为“恼怒的”，disappointed 意为“失望的”，均不符合文意．故正确答案为D．13. 【答案】A;

（3）C．词义猜测题．根据“In England there is no legal duty to warn themotorist before issuing the ticket．However，a policeman does have the discretion not to issue aticket if he doesn’t think the situation is th at bad or he just wants to issuea warning”可知，英国交警没有法律义务提醒机动车主移走车辆，但如果他们认为问题没那么严重，或者他只是想发出一个警告，他有自由不出示罚单，故选C．; （4）D．主旨大意题．阅读短文可知本文主要讲述了一种智能贴纸，目的是为了结束违规停车交通罚单．但是由于各国法律的不同，在有些国家效果并不是很好．作者在介绍这种贴纸的同时，又提出了自己的疑问．故选D“违规停车交通罚单的结束？”14. 【答案】B; D; B; D【解析】本文是科教类阅读，主要讲述了现代科学技术的发展在给人们的生活带来便捷的同时，也带来了某些不好的影响．; ; ;【解答】（1）B．主旨大意题．纵观全文可知，本文主要讲述了现代科学技术的发展在给人们的生活带来便捷的同时，也带来了某些不好的影响．故选B．;

You’re struggling with a problem that feels unsolvable and then somewhere between shampoo and conditioner, you find the answer in the shower. For some reason, when we step away from an issue, and especially when we’re doing something like showering, we can find a creative solution. Researchers at the University of Virginia call it the “shower effect”.In a recent study, researchers found that mildly engaging tasks like showering or walking can produce the most creativity. The balance between focus and mind wandering seems to produce the best results. “Constraining(限定) your thoughts through minor stimulation seems to promote more creativity compared to if your mind is wandering and th ere’s nothing going on around you.” says study author Zachary C. Irving, an assistant professor at the University of Virginia.Participants in the study weren’t actually showering—that’s unsuitable for a research study. Instead, participants either saw a video that was considered boring—two men folding laundry—or a video of the famous scene in When Harry Met Sally…, which was considered mildly stimulating. After that, participants had 45 seconds before researchers asked them to describe how they would possibly use a brick or a nail. Researchers then examined both the number of ideas generated and the originality of those ideas. They found that the participants who watched the mildly stimulating video came up with more creative solutions.“My students can le arn a thing or two from the research which highlights the importance of stepping away from a problem to solve it.” says Alice Flaherty, a neurologist at Massachusetts General Hospital. “Some of them are so dedicated that they won’t get up from their desks until they have a creative idea, which is counterproductive because they don’t ever let their brains step back and take a rest.”But Flaherty also states that researchers need to control the factor of physical arousal (唤起) during their study. That’s becaus e an activity which increases your heart rate might make you think you have the best idea. “There must be other reasons to explain this phenomenon. And while showering might promote creativity,” she says, “it might not be for the reasons they state.”8. According to the recent study, in which way can we inspire our creativity?A．By letting our mind completely wander. B．By doing a mildly stimulating activity.C．By fully focusing on a certain problem. D．By being engaged in things that interestus.9. What can we know about the participants in the study?A．They role-played a famous movie scene.B．They watched a video while folding laundry.C．They imagined taking a shower for 45 seconds.D．They offered creative uses of some common objects.10. What does the underlined word “counterproductive” mean in paragraph 4?A．Difficult to stick to. B．Worthwhile but unhealthy.C．Time-consuming but helpful. D．Opposite to the desired effect.11. What does the text mainly talk about?A．The reason why we need to be creative.B．The function of daily activities.C．The reason why we get our best ideas in the shower.D．The way our brains respond to tricky problems.Last year, 138,000 San Francisco residents used Airbnb, a popular app designed to connect home renters an d travelers. It’s a striking number for a city with a population of about 850,000, and it was enough for Airbnb to win a major victory in local elections, as San Francisco voters struck down a debatable rule that would have placed time restrictions and other regulations on short-term rental services.The company fiercely opposed the rule, Proposition F, with a nearly $10 million advertising campaign. It also contacted its San Franciscan users with messages urging them to vote against Proposition F.Most people think of Airbnb as a kind of couch-surfing app. The service works for one-night stays on road trips and longer stays in cities, and it often has more competitive pricing than hotels. It’s a textbook example of the“sharing economy”, but not everyone is a fan.The app has had unintended consequences in San Francisco. As the San Francisco Chronicle reported last year, a significant amount of renting on Airbnb is not in line with the company’s image: middle-class families putting up a spare room to help make ends meet. Some users have taken advantage of the service, using it to turn their multiple properties into vacation rentals or even full-time rentals. Backers of Proposition F argued that this trend takes spaces off the conventional, better-regulated housing market and contributes to rising costs.“The fact is, widespread abuse of short-term rentals is taking much needed housing off the market and harming our neighborhoods,” said ShareBetter SF, a group that supported Proposition F. Hotel unions have p rotested the company’s practices in San Francisco and other cities, saying that it creates an illegal hotel system.San Francisco is in the middle of a long-term, deeply rooted housing crisis that has seen the cost of living explode. Located on a narrow outcropping of land overlooking the bay, San Francisco simplydoesn’t have enough space to accommodate the massive inflow of young, high-salaried tech employees flocking to Silicon Valley. Consequently, the average monthly rent for an apartment is around $4,000.As the Los Angeles Times reported, some San Francisco residents supported the rule simply because it seemed like a way to check a big corporation. Opponents of Proposition F countered that the housing crisis runs much deeper, and that passing the rule would have discouraged a popular service while doing little to solve the city’s existing problems.12. The intention of Proposition F is to ______.A．place time limits in local election B．set limits on short-term rentalC．strike down a debatable rule D．urge users to vote against Airbnb13. What negative effect does Airbnb have on San Francisco?A．It shrinks the living space of middle-class families.B．Users are taken advantage of by the service financially.C．It makes the house market more competitive.D．It indirectly leads to high house rental price.14. What causes the housing crisis in San Francisco?A．Explosion of the living cost. B．Its historic characteristics.C．Inflow of migrant population. D．Generosity of local enterprises.15. What is the author’s attitude toward Proposition F?A．Objective. B．Approval. C．Subjective. D．Indifferent. Think back to the last time you shopped for fruits and vegetables. You may have noticed some items labelled with the word “organic”. 16“Organic” refers to the way food is grown. To be labelled as “organic”, food production must meet strict guidelines. These can be different depending on where you live. In the United States, organic foods must be grown or raised without using pesticides or chemical fertilizers.17 That changed after the Industrial Revolution. During the 20th century, many ideas that were used by factories and big businesses were put into action on farms. This helped some farms grow larger and produce more.However, the organic movement was started to get back to the old traditional ways of farming. Why? Many believe the chemicals and pesticides used in modern farming can be harmful to your health. 18 And those who support the organic movement also point to its benefits for the environment.Have you ever compared organic and non-organic foods at the grocery store? If so, you know that organic food tends to cost more. This happens for many reasons. Organic farming produces fewercrops. 19 Additionally, organic farms spend more money taking care of the animals they raise. These and other factors drive the cost of organic food up.Is organic food worth the extra cost? Some people believe it is. They may think it tastes better or just prefer to eat food that has not been grown using chemicals. 20 They are still trying to find a major difference between organic and non-organic food in terms of safety, nutrition, or taste. Still, others argue that the environmental benefits of organic food make it worth the price.Julia, a 27-year-old TikTok user from Chicago, has been making dresses that her grandmother designed at fashion school to share on the platform.According to Julia, her grandma, Georgie, went to fashion school in the 1940s and dreamed of being a fashion designer, but ______ before completing her studies because she needed to ______ some sick family members.One day in 2021, when Julia was visiting her grandma,______ old sketches(草图) of dresses that Georgie had designed when she was a teenager, she thought they were ______.“I knew my grandma was ______, but these are really much better than what I was______ in my head.

Expecting a journey of only several meters, Bob was wearing just long johns(衬裤), a shirt and slippers when he went outside, although the temperature was around-4°C.After the accident, he was unable to move in the snow.

To start with, the Telenoid will be trained to follow the movements and simple sounds made by a human singer, and to connect music with different emotional states. Chella then plans to see if the robot can use these connections to create music.Intelligence is often regarded as the ability to find connections between the existing things. But Chella suggests that a conscious(有意识的) creature should be able to go a step further and introduce new connections that result in the creation of something new.Some jazz musicians say that they should have a mental library of musical phrases so that they are able to combine them in new ways. More importantly, however, this combination happens in a state that is similar in a sense to dreaming. Chellawants to copy these states in a machine.“This work raises interesting questions about the link between consciousness and music making,” says Philippe Pasquier, a musician and computer scientist. But he is skeptical about whether a robot musician needs a physical body.Pasquier argues that the robots are faced with two challenges(挑战). Software that can copy Bach has already been developed. But interpretation（演绎）includes human's different tastes and judgments. “What ma de the Beatles famous was not so much their works, but the fact that the interpretations of the works were wonderful,” he says.It is not yet clear how a robot would go about interpreting music in a new way. But by copying humans and then learning to sing, Chella's robot could provide clues.What seems to be important is that human composers often listen to lots of music made by others. So Chella's robot had better listen to those jazz standards first.1.（1） Which of the following is the robot's first step before ittries to create jazz?A . Living with human beings in harmony.B . Connecting actions with human's emotions.C . Copying a human singer's movements and sounds.D . Learning to communicate with human beings freely.2.（2）The underlined word “skeptical” in Paragraph 5 couldbe replaced by .A . doubtful.B . worried.C . certain.D . concerned.3.（3） What can we know about the robots like Telenoidfrom the text?A . They are household robots.B . They can talk with researchers.C . They are faced with two challenges.D . They will become human singers.4.（4） What can be concluded from the text?A . Chella's robot needs a physical body to make music.B . How to interpret jazz is a piece of cake for Chella's robot.C . A new kind of software should be developed to copy Bach.D . Chella's robot should listen to much jazz to create something new.二、任务型阅读5. 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，选项中有两项为多余选项。

They are all directed by students themselves. Each organization has an advisor, but student members plan all activities and events. In a university there are as many as hundreds of student organizations for students to choose from. Eachstudent is sure to have a club or group that fits his needs or interests. The clubs range from religion to community service, sports and hobbies. For example, there are ski clubs, yoga clubs, dance clubs, etc. If you cannot find a club that you are interested in, you can have an idea for a new club, and form one youself. All you have to do is to pass the idea through the school nd find an advisor and if the school agrees, you’ll have a new student organization!Clubs and organizations help students explore their interests, which may turn into lifelong hobbies or even become their careers in life.【答案解析】第二部分阅读理解第一节A【主旨大意】本文讲述了初为人父母的Ogg夫妇面对新生双胞胎儿子即将夭折之际不放弃的精神，最终从死神手里夺回了儿子的故事。
