ADear Tommy,I am Ole Orvér, Finnair’s chief commercial officer. It’s my pleasure to warmly welcome you back to the skies with Finnair. I’d like to reflect on some of the developments that we hope you find exciting and helpful:·This summer season you can fly with Finnair to over 70 European and five US destinations. In Asia, we serve eight cities, including Guangzhou and newly added Mumbai starting 6 August. We operate over 300 daily flights and I’m excited about the addition of Seattle and Dallas to our US network.·Travel is recovering everywhere, and airports around the world are working hard to manage increased traffic volumes. It is a good idea to reserve some extra time at the airport before your flight. We are doing our very best together with our partners both at Helsinki and in our outstations to offer you a smooth travel experience during this popular travel season.·You are again able to offset flight carbon emissions (碳补偿), this time with a service that combines sustainable aviation (航空) fuel and certified climate projects. We at Finnair have ambitious emissions targets and our customers wish for a simple and transparent way to contribute.·Finnair Plus turned 30 in May. We are committed to developing the programme further to serve you in the best possible way. To make your flight bookings smoother, we recently upgraded the experience of booking award flights in the Finnair app.Finally, I’d like to thank you for your patience when we haven’t got things quite right. Wherever you’re travelling in the next few months, I hope it’s memorable. Thank you for flying Finnair.Kind Regards,Ole Orvér21. Which city is a new addition to the Finnair’s Asian network?A. Guangzhou.B. Mumbai.C. Seattle.D. Dallas.22. What is Finnair doing to help the environment?A. Launching a climate project.B. Developing sustainable fuels.C. Donating to a green programme.D. Offering a carbon offset service.23. Why does Finnair write this letter to Tommy?A. To express sincere gratitude.B. To introduce new routes.C. To apologize for bad service.D. To keep a regular customer.BI’m a talker. I’m into debating, gossiping and teasing. I solve problems by talking them through. This works perfectly well when I have people to talk to. Under lockdown, however, I’ve only had my partner, Peter. We not only lived, worked and traveled together, but mostly socialized together, too. Under the first UK lockdown, our constant closeness began to feel uncomfortable.For the first time in our 10 years together, we needed to be alone. I tried to manufacture this by going on walks on my own, but a short walk in the local park wasn’t doing the job. I considered my options and hit upon an idea: the semi-solo hike. Could we do a circular hike but walk in different directions? This would give us the space and peace of a solo hike. It felt like a promising compromise, so I told him about it. He thought it was thoroughly silly but agreed to give it a try.We started with a four-mile loop(环形) from Reeth. At the start, we parted ways. At first, I was aware of how close we were, which lessened the appeal Walking alone offers freedom and alone time, but here I was with my boyfriend nearby. As I gained ground, however, I found myself very much alone. I set my own pace, and I decided to take my time.I sat on a rock and breathed out. That moment —with the weak sun through the clouds and the breeze blowing across makeshift pools —felt extraordinary to me. I was born and raised in London and had never imagined leaving until I met an outdoorsman. Now, my former life as a city girl felt crazy. Realizing what I had gained, I felt the tension leave me. There, in the chilly air, I no longer needed to talk. The semi-solo hike gave us a shared experience with added room to breathe. I didn’t see Peter on route but reunited back where we started, both of us sheepish (难为情的) but pleased. The semi-solo hike is admittedly silly in theory, but for me it has been a lifeline. It has given me the gift of time alone and, in a year of constant closeness, the joy of reuniting.24. Why did the author decide to do a semi-solo hike?A. To get rid of the lockdown.B. To find some individual space.C. To meet more people to socialize.D. To seek the pleasure of reuniting.25. How did the author feel at the beginning of the hike?A. Curious.B. Thrilled.C. Unsatisfied.D. Relaxed.26. What can be inferred from the last paragraph?A. Interest is the best teacher.B. Exercise helps increase confidence.C. Living in the city limits our imagination.D. An appropriate distance creates happiness.27. What is the best title for the text?A. Hiking TogetherB. Spending Time ApartC. Taking Exercise AloneD. Reuniting with My PartnerCWith an abundance of sun and wind, Spain is positioning itself as Europe’s future leader in green hydrogen production to clean up heavy industries. But some energy experts express caution because this process relies on massive availability of zero-carbon electivity.Green hydrogen is created when renewable energy sources power an electrical current that runs through water, separating its hydrogen and oxygen molecules (分子). The process doesn’t produce planet-warming carbon dioxide, but less than 0. 1% of global hydrogen production is currently created in this way.The separated hydrogen can be used in the production of steel, ammonia (氨) and chemical products, all of which require industrial processes that are harder to stop fossil fuels. Hydrogen also can be used as a transportation fuel, which could one day transform the highly polluting shipping and aviation sectors.Spain’s large, windswept and thinly populated territory receives more than 2, 500 hours of sunshine on average per year, providing ideal conditions for wind and solar energy, and therefore green hydrogen production.“If you look at where hydrogen is going to be produced in Europe in the next million years, it’s in two countries, Spain and Portugal,” said Thierry Lepercq, the founder and president of HyDeal Ambition, an industry platform bringing together 30 companies. “Hydrogen is the new oil.”Lepercq is working with companies like Spanish gas pipeline corporation Enagas and global steel giant ArcelorMittal to design an end-to-end model for hydrogen production, distribution and supply at a competitive price. Criticism has centered on green hydrogen’s higher cost compared with highly-polluting “gray hydrogen” drawn from natural gas. Lepercq argues that solar energy produced in Spain is priced low enough to compete.Globally, Lepercq said, “Electricity is 20% of energy consumption. What about the 80% that is not electrified? ... You need to replace those fossil fuels. Not in 50 years’ time. You need to replace them now.”28. Why are some experts cautious about green hydrogen production in Spain?A. It needs large amounts of sun and wind.B. It has an effect on heavy industries.C. It causes conflicts among countries.D. It uses lots of zero-carbon electricity.29. What is the advantage of green hydrogen production in Spain?A. Ideal geographical conditions.B. The support from government.C. Hydrogen production technology.D. Well-developed public transports.30. What can be inferred about green hydrogen in Spain according to Lepercq?A. It is highly priced.B. It is easy to store.C. It is competitive.D. It is highly-polluting.31. What is the passage mainly about?A. Spain manages to use zero-carbon electricity.B. Spain struggles to lead EU in heavy industry.C. Spain takes the lead in preventing air pollution.D. Spain replaces fossil fuel with green hydrogen.DSearch “toxic parents”, and you’ll find more than 38, 000 posts, largely urging young adults to cut ties with their families. The idea is to safeguard one’s mental health from abusive parents. However, as a psychoanalyst (精神分析学家), I’ve seen that trend in recent years becomes a way to manage conflicts in the family, and I have seen the severe impacts estrangement(疏远) has on both sides of the divide. This is a self-help trend that creates much harm.“Canceling” your parent can be seen as an extension of a cultural trend aimed at correcting imbalances in power and systemic inequality. Today’s social justice values respond to this reality, calling on us to criticize oppressive and harmful figures and to gain power for those who have been powerless. But when adult children use the most effective tool they have —themselves —to gain a sense of security and ban their parents from their lives, the roles are simply switched, and the pain only deepens.Often, what I see in my practice are cases of family conflict mismanaged, power dynamics turned upside down rather than negotiated. I see the terrible effect of that trend: situations with no winners, only isolated humans who long to be known and feel safe in the presence of the other.The catch is that after estrangement, adult children are not suddenly less dependent. In fact, they feel abandoned and betrayed, because in the unconscious, it doesn’t matter who is doing the leaving; the feeling that remains is “being left”. They carry the ghosts of their childhood, tackling the emotional reality that those who raised us can never truly be left behind, no matter how hard we try.What I have found is that most of these families need repair, not permanent break-up How can one learn how to negotiate needs, to create boundaries and to trust? How can we love others, and ourselves, if not through accepting the limitations that come with being human? Good relationships are the result not of a perfect level of harmony but rather of successful adjustments.To pursue dialogue instead of estrangement will be hard and painful work. It can’t be a single project of “self-help”, because at the end of the day, real intimacy (亲密关系) is achieved by working through the injuries of the past together. In most cases of family conflict, repair is possible and preferable to estrangement —and it’s worth the work.32. Why do young people cut ties with the family?A. To gain an independent life.B. To restore harmony in the family.C. To protect their psychological well-being.D. To follow a tendency towards social justice.33. What does the underlined word “catch” in Paragraph 4 mean?A. Response.B. Problem.C. Operation.D. Emphasis.34. To manage family conflict, the author agrees that young adults should ________.A. break down boundariesB. gain power within the familyC. live up to their parents’ expectationsD. accept imperfection of family members35. What’s the author’s purpose of writing the passage?A. To advocate a self-help trend.B. To justify a common social value.C. To argue against a current practice.D. To discuss a means of communication.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,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

2022年吉林长春朝阳区东北师范大学附属中学高三上学期高考模拟英语试卷(长春十一高中、吉林一中、四平一中、松原实验)-学生用卷一、完形填空1、【来源】 2022年吉林长春朝阳区东北师范大学附属中学高三上学期高考模拟(长春十一高中、吉林一中、四平一中、松原实验)第1题I have to admit I’m an old-school reader. Put simply, I old books. Alone in a new city to my first daily newspaper job, I was feeling vaguely anxious as I dipped into a used bookstore to my mind.The shelves, full of the smell of the past, quickly me. One of the occupational hazards (职业病) of journalism, my chosen, is a desire to stay on top of the Next Big Thing. With their cracked spines (书脊) and yellowed, the titles in the shop usefully pointed me toward the longer view. “No to get too worked up over today’s headline,” they seemed to say. “ There is notmuch under the sun.”Francis Bacon’s essays are always a ready antidote (解药). “Prosperity (繁荣) is not withoutmany and dislikes,” Bacon wrote, and“ is not without comforts and hopes.” For me, that comfort and hope often come from a second-hand.Reading deeply from the past can be at leastas as following the day’s news.Don’t missing out on the gossip. All matters of fact, which a man did not before, are news to him.【小题1】【小题2】【小题3】【小题4】【小题5】【小题6】【小题7】【小题8】【小题9】【小题10】【小题11】【小题12】【小题13】【小题14】【小题15】二、阅读理解2、【来源】 2022年吉林长春朝阳区东北师范大学附属中学高三上学期高考模拟(长春十一高中、吉林一中、四平一中、松原实验)第2题The Dead Sea might be the most famous saline body in the world, but it’s by no means the only one. Here, we uncover some other salt lakes around the world.Dead SeaThe most famous of the lot, the Dead Sea—also known as the Salt Sea—is a natural place to start. It’s technically not a sea at all, but a land salt lake. Its waters are mainly drawn from the Jordan River, and the high salinity (盐度) means no life can survive here, so don’t expect any colorful fish. However, much amusement results from the sea’s buoyancy (浮力): Bring some reading material to the waters and lie back—nature will do the rest.Lake AssalSurrounded by black volcano rocks, Lake Assal takes the title of being the lowest point in Africa. Vast salt fields mark its edges; the lake has long been at the centre of the area’s salt trade, on which the region’s African locals still rely. Though the area might not be suitable to live in, the waters are rich in minerals and related to health benefits.Great Salt LakeThe biggest salt lake in the western hemisphere, and the one that gave Salt Lake City its name, the Great Salt Lake finds its home in northern Utah. What makes the lake well-known is not only the lake’s blue and green waters and white-sand beaches, but also Great Salt Lake State Park and Antelope Island State Park, both offering super hiking and biking trails, and great long views.Don Juan PondDon Juan Pond might not win any prizes for its beauty—at four inches deep, it’s little more than a pond, but it is worth visiting. Its salinity content of almost 40 percent makesit one of the saltiest bodies of water on Earth, meaning it doesn’t freeze even when Antarctic temperatures drop to -50℃. And with suggestions that water in a similar form could exist on Mars, there’s more than one reason for scientists to study this fascinating dry, cold environment.【小题1】What can visitors probably do in Lake Assal?【小题2】What is the Great Salt Lake famous for?【小题3】Which lake is valuable for space exploration?3、【来源】 2022年吉林长春朝阳区东北师范大学附属中学高三上学期高考模拟(长春十一高中、吉林一中、四平一中、松原实验)第3题Leia was fresh out of college when she began working as a member of a business-development team at a mid- size tech company. Though her skills had earned her the job, she was the youngest person in the team. “Everybody else was pretty much twice my age,” she says. “I heard about comments being made behind my back. There were a couple of times when my superiors referred to my age right in front of me, saying I was too young, ‘What does a 23- year-old know about these things?’”Leia tried to change things by altering her appearance at work. “I changed the way I dressed. I tried to dress older, more ‘ladylike’. I changed my mannerisms and tried to act older,”she says. “It worked,to an extent.”The comments about her age and perceived ( 认定的 ) inexperience lessened, but Leia says she still felt like her growth potential was limited. She left the company soon after.What Leia experienced was ageism traditionally seen as something only older people face. For instance, older workers might be judged based on assumptions that they won’t fit into a progressive office dynamics or learn technology as quickly. A US study showed that nearly two-thirds of workers aged 45 and older had seen or experienced age discrimination. But younger workers face age discrimination, too. In fact, new research shows it may actually be the youngest team members who are bearing the impact of workplace ageism right now.Leia says removing ageism entirely will ultimately require a fundamental change to corporate culture, which has long tied seniority ( 资历 ) to skill. “We prize years of experience alittle too much,and I don’t think years of experience and skill are necessarily related,” she says. “Steve Jobs was 21 when he founded Apple. We don’t know how much younger people actually have to contribute. Hopefully, more employers are realizing it.”【小题1】What was the main topic of Leia’s superiors about her?【小题2】Why didn’t Leia stay any longer at the company?【小题3】Which statement agrees with the US study the most?【小题4】Why does Leia mention Steve Jobs?4、【来源】 2022年吉林长春朝阳区东北师范大学附属中学高三上学期高考模拟(长春十一高中、吉林一中、四平一中、松原实验)第4题Octopuses(章鱼) are some of the cleverest animals on the planet! So what makes them so smart? Let’s focus first on their defense mechanisms. Faced with multiple predators(捕食者)—including fish, birds and whales—octopuses are masters of disguise.They can imitate their environment by changing their skin colour.Without a shell, octopuses are weak and easily hurt physically, and always try to remain hidden in a shelter such as a hole or the space beneath a rock. Some prefer to wrap themselves in shells and small stones, while others transport their shelters in their arms. This is the case for the coconut octopus, which,true to its name, has been observed carrying coconut shells around to hide within in case of danger.Octopuses are also fearsome predators themselves, and their attack mechanisms are suited to the wide variety of prey(猎物) they consume, including seashells,fish and even other creatures like them. They can use their vision and camouflage skills to hunt, and their arms to explore,touch and taste their environment to seize every bit of food within reach.Octopuses can also use conditional discrimination, that is, they can change their choice depending on the situation. For example, they can learn to attack an object only in the presence of bubbles. They can alsouse space learning, and find a hidden shelter by remembering its position. Last but not least, octopuses can learn by watching other octopuses carry out tasks, such as choosing one specific object over another. This is surprising,because they are mainly solitary(独居的)creatures.Octopuses meet every criteria for the definition of intelligence: They show a great flexibility in obtaining information (using several senses and learning socially), in processing it (through discriminative and conditional learning), in storing it (through long- term memory) and in applying it toward both predators and prey.【小题1】Which are both predators and prey of octopuses?【小题2】Why do coconut octopuses carry coconut shells everywhere?【小题3】What’s the fifth paragraph mainly about?【小题4】What can be a suitable title for the text?5、【来源】 2022年吉林长春朝阳区东北师范大学附属中学高三上学期高考模拟(长春十一高中、吉林一中、四平一中、松原实验)第5题English is the language for international communication, especially in areas such as science and technology. Galileo Galilei said, “Mathematics is the language with which God has written the universe.” Using numbers and mathematical symbols, one can write “words” and “sentences”.When appropriate, several “sentences” together might form a “mathematical story”. Mathematics has also grammar — the mathematical logic which determines whether statements are valid or not.A math teacher compares math to English and says, “Math may be viewed as a language — a simpler, more consistent and more regular language than English. Numbers represent nouns, while operational signs (+, -,×, ÷, =) serve as verbs. Both components are governed by rules of syntax. Math facts, such as 2×3=6, may be thought of as math sentences. Students should be encouraged to speak in complete sentences to convey an entire thought. Math at the simple sentence fact level is a much easier language than English. Although math has an infinite number of nouns, it has only five verbs (+, -, ×, ÷, =) associated with four basic operations.”Nina is an English teacher in elementary school and has 12 years of teaching experience. She has no doubts about the logical connection between English and mathematics. She says, “They are definitely languages. In both languages there are patterns and rules. They are both taught throughvisualizations and illustrations.Teaching vocabulary is like teaching fractions. You need to illustrate in both languages and practice a lot.”However, English and mathematics as languages are similar and yet different. The language of mathematics, for example, is precise and less flexible—it cannot afford ambiguity,while natural languages contain constructive ambiguity derived from their cultural and contextual wealth of meanings. Mathematics as well as English as a second language does not develop naturally as a child develops a natural language; they need to be learned.【小题1】What can be inferred from the first paragraph?【小题2】What is mainly discussed in Paragraph 2?【小题3】What does the underlined word “ambiguity” probably mean?【小题4】What is the author’s purpose in writing the text?三、七选五6、【来源】 2022年吉林长春朝阳区东北师范大学附属中学高三上学期高考模拟(长春十一高中、吉林一中、四平一中、松原实验)第6题In fact, this isn’t a new phenomenon. After all, people have complainedabout“kids these days”for decades. But is there really any truth in the idea that millennials (千禧一代) and Gen Z are weaker than Boomers or Gen X?People have complained about younger generations for thousands of years. 【小题1】.“The tendency for adults to look down upon the character of youth has been happening for centuries,” says Peter O’ Connor, a professor of management.He points out the fixed concept remains alive and well, with research showing thousands of Americans believe that “kids these days” lack positive qualities that participants associate with older generations. 【小题2】.The researchers argued that this was because we project our current selves onto our past selves.By doing this, older people are unconsciously comparing who they are today to today’s young people, giving an impression that today’s youth is somehow on the decline, no matter which times we’re living in. 【小题3】.The truth is that older generations have been accusing the young of being lazy and self-obsessed for centuries.【小题4】. Jason Dorsey, president of the Center for Generational Kinetics, believes that there is a way around this—but that general context is key to debunking (揭穿) the persisting weakness myth.“It’s awareness of what these different generations have gone through, why they are the way they are.”he says.“【小题5】, which simply does not exist right now. Instead of having frank conversations across generations, we always say that younger people are snowflakes and older people are dinosaurs. But the truth is that we’re all human.” he adds.四、用单词的适当形式完成短文7、【来源】 2022年吉林长春朝阳区东北师范大学附属中学高三上学期高考模拟(长春十一高中、吉林一中、四平一中、松原实验)第7题阅读下面短文,在空白处填入 1 个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。

AOn my walk home one night, I saw a man lying on the floor. One or two people noticed him, but walked on by. I stopped and spoke to him. He mumbled (含糊地说)some words I couldn’t make out. From his breath it was obvious he’d been drinking.I kept trying to speak to him until I got his address—a number and a road name that I recognized. It was only a ten minutes walk from here. Part of me wanted to help, but there’s also fear arising. He was much bigger than me. In the end I decided to go for it. I helped him up, he held onto my shoulders and arm, and we struggled to his home.The walk took about 40 minutes instead of the 10. Throughout that walk, I felt a constant worry. Was the address he gave me a genuine one? Did he want to lead me into a trap where a gang of them might then rob me?Halfway to his home, he stopped, took out his phone and then handed it to me. I asked him why he was doing that, and he said, “to test your loyalty.”That moment struck me. All this time I was worried about what he might do to me. And it meant I wasn’t in his shoes understanding what he was feeling. He was likely feeling the same anxiety. Would this random person try to rob me? Could I trust him to lead me home? What if he hurt me?So when he turned around and handed me his phone as a sign of trust. I felt touched andhonored at this act of courage.We walked the rest of the way to his home. When we got close, I noticed he recognized his home. Sure enough, it was the door number he told me. I felt a sense of relief. I was so glad that we made it home. More than anything else I was able to be in his position, experiencing his fear and understanding his same anxiety. That was a lesson I would carry over my life.21. We can learn from the first two paragraphs that________.A. the man had nowhere to goB. only a few passers-by stopped to helpC. the man didn’t tell the author his addressD. the author had difficulty supporting him.22. When leading the man home, the author felt______.A. frightenedB. surprisedC. anxiousD. confused23.

Never judge a book by its cover.BBali is, without doubt, one of the most culturally rich islands in the world. In fact, its carved temples, dances and rice terrace all seem too perfect to be true, even down to the people’s smiled. But take a closer look at those smiles and the perfect seem a bit too perfect, and for good reason. Those flattened teeth are the result of an important piece of dentistry that every young Balinese man or woman experiences in their life, known as not performed for tooth filing(锉)Tooth filing is part of Bali’s religious tradition and is not performed for cosmetic(美容的)reasons. In fact, so important is the tooth filing ceremony that without it, the Balinese believe they may experience serous social or behavioral problems later in life, or their personality may change altogether. It is held to purify the body and mind, which is central to Balinese religious life. According to the Balinese, at every stage in a person’s life, he or she is likely to be influenced by the supernatural—from demons and layak, to good spirits which may bring good luck.The Balinese believe that long pointed teeth give the person the animal sides of human nature, such as desire, anger and greed. And those animal sides are more likely to show up when the teeth are sharp. To prevent this, the pints of the teeth are filed down, together with the points of the lower teeth in a potong gigi ceremony. However, people who have their teeth filed will suffer early tooth decay(蛀⽛)since the protection is removed from the points of the teeth, exposing them to acid decay. The potong gigi ceremony is usually performed for the members of the same family together since it is a very expensive occasion to host. It is often necessary to wait until the youngest child is of age. A special chair is to be made for the ceremony from bamboo covered with coconut leaves, blankets and flowers. Surrounding the platform is food the coning guests.25.

What is the best title of the passage?A. A Cosmetic Wonder—Tooth FilingB. Bali—a Culturally Rich IslandC. The potong Gigi CeremonyD. Bali’s Tooth Filing TraditionCMore than 50 years ago, Kitty Genovese, a 28-year –old woman, was murdered outside her apartment in New York City. This could have been just one of the many murder cases that happen in the US. But something set this crime apart: some news reports claimed hat neighbors and passers-by nothing when witnessing her tragic death.The public nature of her death forced the American public to examine its own apathy(冷漠). It also encouraged a series of studies into the caused of what became known as the “ bystander effect”.The bystander effect is a social phenomenon that occurs when individuals witness someone in trouble, but don’t offer help. Even good people can find themselves frozen by shock fear and uncertainty. Buy most of the time, they fail to help those in need due to the presence of other people.According to the original report about the Kitty Genovese case, several bystanders thought other witnesses had already called the police or would soon do so. They reasoned, therefore, that they did not need to respond.This is what psychologists called “diffusion(漫射)”of responsibility”. When others are around, out personal sense of responsibility lessens. US psychologist Bibb Latane and John Darley used a series of experiments to determine that people are more likely to help out if they are alone, 70 percent of study participants would help if they were the only person on the scene, but that rate dropped dramatically, to 40 percent, if there was another witness. Participants were least reactive or likely to offer assistance if the other witness did not react or was “passive” during the event. In that circumstance, only 7 percent offered help.“ The problem with the bystander effect is as simple as looking to others to solve a problem. The solution is just as easy and just the opposite”, wrote Tyler Tervooren, founder of Riskology. Co, a website aiming to help people “master their psychology”. The same idea applies to problems in your own life, according to Tervooren. If you need help, you have to reach out to someone who can help you and specifically ask for assistance.29. The Kitty Genovese case was unusual because______.A. the victim was killed outside her own department.B. its repots drew public attention to American apathyC. it improved the studies of the “bystander effect”D. several of its witnesses were frozen by shock30. Studies show that one is least likely to help someone in trouble when he/she is_____.A. astonishedB. afraidC. not sureD. not alone31. According to the passage, which of the following statements is TRUE?A. The bystander effect only happens t people with low moral standardsB. Diffusion of responsibility helps people master their psychologyC. A person will likely get help if he/she asks a particular person.D. The more people are present, the more likely help will be given.32. The purpose of the passage is______.A. to present the cause and effect of the “bystander effect”B. to show disapproval of the coldness of the American peopleC. to report the murder of a 28-year-olf woman in New YorkD. to analyze a social phenomenon and offer a simple solution.DYour eBook bargains for Sunday!Look Me in the EyeJohn Elder RobisonISBN: 0307396185A New York Times bestselling memoir that is “sweet and funny andsad and true and heartfelt” (Augusten Burroughts, bestselling authorof Running with Scissors).

AWorld-famous Botanical GardensFrom botanical history to scientific discovery,here are the top picks for people to explore.Royal Botanic Gardens at Kew,London,England(1840)Located in London,Royal-Botanic Gardens at Kew are home to the world’s biggest collection of living plants. As a global resource for plant and fungal knowledge,it has more than50,000species of native and exotic plants,trees, and flowers on site.It is a setting rich in history that spans from royal decorations to wartime bombing,and its mission is to protect plants for the future of all life on Earth.The Humble Administrator’s Garden,Suzhou,China(1513)The Humble Administrators Garden in Suzhou is a great masterpiece with its attractive design and careful arrangement of natural elements.It’s centered around water features,with beautiful fountains,complex rockwork,and historic buildings surrounded by thick vegetation.The combination of these elements creates a picturesque landscape. Because of its exceptional cultural and historical significance,the garden has become a world heritage.Parque de Monserrate,Sintra,Portugal(1789)Monserrate is a combination of wild landscape with old ruins,formal lawned areas and lovely gardens.The garden sits on the lower slopes of the Sintra Mountains,which have one of the mildest climates in Europe,so the garden is frost-free.At its very centre is a grand palace,which has a distinctive mixture of different architectural styles. It has been the site of various buildings and gardens for hundreds of years.Missouri Botanical Garden,St Louis,USA(1859)Established in1859,Missouri Botanical Garden is the oldest botanical garden in continuous use in North America.It is recognized internationally for its scientific research.With almost50themed gardens,Missouri Botanical Garden has been involved in the conservation of plants from native American regions and also from Madagascar,China and Central America.21.Why are the Royal Botanic Gardens at Kew established?A.To collect tropical plants.B.To conserve various plants.C.To record the history of British plants.D.To provide a shelter for people in wartime.22.What is special about the Humble Administrator’s Garden?A.It highlights the waterscape.B.It is surrounded by formal lawns.C.It includes many themed gardens.D.It shows different architectural ruins.23.Where are science lovers most likely to go?A.London.B.Suzhou.C.Sintra.D.St Louis.BIn the1970s,a new supermarket selling LPs arrived in my hometown and I began devoting my pocket money to acquiring records.I swiftly developed an affection for Beethoven’s Moonlight Sonata,harboring dreams of performing that music myself.Despite the absence of a piano at home,there was one at my grandmother’s care home, where I learned to play Beethoven by ear,with pigeons cooing and farmers working in the fields.It was truly magical.Entering the Royal Academy of Arts at16marked the beginning of my artistic journey.In my30s,I took another significant step in life—marriage.My wife worked at Elephants World,a reserve dedicated to the care of rescued domestic elephants.These elephants have worked for humans all their life and many are blind or disabled from being treated badly,so I wanted to make the effort to carry something heavy myself.For my50th birthday,my wife successfully persuaded the manager to allow us to bring a piano into the reserve,bringing music to the elephants’lives.Initially,when I started playing,it was hard to hear the piano above the sounds of nature and the elephants chewing grass.However,everything changed when a blind elephant ceased eating and tuned into my playing.It struck me that this elephant,trapped in a world of darkness,had a profound love for music.From that moment on,there was no longer any concern about disturbing their peace.We occasionally film these performances,and now,we proudly have nearly700,000YouTube subscribers.I continue to play for these elephants that run freely in the reserve,despite the constant potential danger. Surprisingly,it’s the moody male elephants who show the most fascination with the music.I firmly believe it has acalming effect.These elephants’breathing actually slows down when I play,which tells me they are relaxed and happy.I’ve even witnessed elephants seemingly dancing to Beethoven’s tunes.With their exceptional hearing and theability to sense vibrations(震动)through their feet,I am convinced that elephants grasp the language of humanexpression.This serves as a powerful illustration that music serves as a universal language,connecting us all.24.What motivated the author’s early affection for music?A.Exposure to Beethoven’s music.B.Employment at Elephants World.C.Attendance at the Royal Academy of Arts.D.Piano teaching at his grandma’s care home.25.What did the author’s50th birthday celebration symbolize?A.Personal achievements in music.B.A combination of music and care.C.Successful fundraising for the reserve.D.Recognition for the author’s artistic journey.26.What role did music play in the lives of the elephants in the reserve?A.Emotional recovery.B.Physical exercise.C.Financial support.D.Artistic expression.27.Which of the following can be a suitable title for the text?A.Save the Mistreated ElephantsB.Male Elephants:Moody and MusicalC.Play the Piano for Rescued ElephantsD.Elephants:Animals of Sharp HearingCSince young children went back to school across Sweden recently,many of their teachers have been putting a new emphasis on printed books,quiet reading time and handwriting practice,and devoting less time to tablets, independent online research and keyboarding skills.The return to more traditional ways of learning is a response to politicians and experts questioning whether Sweden’s hyper-digitalized approach to education,including the introduction of tablets in nursery schools,had led to a decline in basic skills.Sweden’s minister for schools,Lotta Edholm was one of the biggest critics of the all-out embrace of technology.“Sweden’s students need more textbooks,”Edholm said in March.“Physical books are important for student learning.”The minister announced in August that the government wanted to change the decision by the national agency for education to make digital devices compulsory in preschools.It plans to go further and to completely end digital learning for children under age six,the ministry has told the Associated Press.Although Sweden’s students score above the European average for reading ability,an international assessment of fourth-grade reading levels,the Progress in International Reading Literacy Study(PIRLS),highlighted a decline among Sweden’s children between2016and2021.In comparison,Singapore—which topped the rankings—improved its PIRLS reading scores from576to587 during the same period,and England’s average reading achievement score fell only slightly,from559in2016to558in2021.An overuse of screens during school lessons may cause youngsters to fall behind in core subjects,education experts say.“There’s clear scientific evidence that digital tools impair rather than enhance student learning,”Sweden’s Karolinska Institute,a highly respected medical school focused on research,said in a statement in August on the country’s national digitalization strategy in education.“We believe the focus should return to acquiring knowledge through printed textbooks and teacher expertise, rather than acquiring knowledge primarily from freely available digital sources that have not been checked for accuracy.”the school added.28.Why do Swedish schools return to paper books?A.To cater to parents’increasing needs.B.To help with children’s independent learning.C.To overcome children’s addiction to digital tools.D.To avoid possible decline in children’s basic skills.29.What docs the underlined words“all-out embrace”mean in Paragraph3?A.Total acceptance.B.Creative use.C.Rapid development.D.Serious addiction.30.What might Karolinska Institute agree with?A.Teachers should acquire more knowledge.B.Knowledge from digital tools may not be reliable.C.Digital tools smooth out learning barriers for children.D.The accessibility to digital sources should be improved.31.Which of the following is a suitable title for the text?A.Swedish Children’s Return to PaperB.Problems with Children’s EducationC.Popularity of Digitalization in SwedenD.Enhancement of Teaching Strategies in SwedenDIn a world of music streaming services,access to almost any song is just a few clicks away.Yet,the live concert lives on.People still fill sweaty basements to hear their favorite musicians play.And now neuroscientists might know why.Concerts are immersive social experiences in which people listen to and feel the music together.They are also dynamic—artists can adapt their playing according to the crowd’s reaction.It was this last difference that led neuroscientists,from Universities of Zurich and Oslo,to study the brainresponses of people listening to music.In the experiment,participants lay in an MRI(核磁共振)scanner listening tothe music through earphones,while a pianist was positioned outside the room.The pianist was shown the participant’s real-time brain activity as a form of feedback.In the recorded condition,participants listened to pre-recorded versions of the same tunes.The scientists were interested in how live music affected the areas of the brain that process emotions.In the livecondition pianists were instructed to change their playing in order to drive the activity in one of these regions known as the amygdala.The results,just published in the journal PNAS,showed that live music had far more emotional impact.Whether the music was happy or sad,listening to the pianist playing in a dynamic way generated more activity in both the amygdala and other parts of the brain’s emotion processing network.The study was far from reconstructing the real experience of a concert,and the authors noted that the live music ended up sounding quite different from the recorded tracks,which may have driven some of the differences in participant’s brain activity.Some musical acts now attempt to recreate the real concert experience with everything butthe artist—ABBA Voyage is a social,immersive show performed entirely by pre-recorded hologram avatars(全息图).But without Benny’s(a member of the band)ability to read the mood of the room,it will never quite match thereal thing.32.What caused the scientists to study music listeners’brain response?A.People’s preference to recorded music.B.The important social function of concerts.C.The changeable characteristic of live music.D.The easy accessibility of streaming services.33.How did the researchers carry out the experiment?A.By clarifying a concept.B.By making a comparison.C.By analyzing previous data.D.By referring to another study.34.Why does live music feel better than recorded music?A.It offers a more traditional and raw sound.B.It engages the brain’s emotion centers more.C.It fosters a sense of community and shared energy.D.It guarantees a deeper understanding of the music.35.What do we know from the last paragraph?A.The artists will be replaced by technology soon.B.The immersive audio makes live music special.C.The study recreated the experience of a real concert.D.It is vital for musicians to read the audiences’mind.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。

AWalking down a path through some woods in Georgia, I saw a small pool of water ahead on the path. I changed my direction to go around it on the part of the path that wasn’t covered by water or mud. As I reached the pool, I was suddenly attacked! Yet I did nothing for the attack. It was so unpredictable and from somewhere totally unexpected. I was surprised as well as unhurtthough I had been struck four or five times. I backed up a foot and my attacker stopped attacking me. Had I been hurt, I wouldn’t have found it amusing. And I was laughing. After all, I was being attacked by a butterfly!Having stopped, laughing, I took a step forward. My attacker rushed me again. He charged towards me at full speed, attempting to hurt me but in vain. For a second time, I took a step backwards while my attacker paused. I wasn’t sure what to do. After all, it’s just not every day that one is attacked by a butterfly. I stepped back to look the situation over. My attacker moved back to land on the ground. That’s when I discov ered why my attacker was charging at me only moments earlier. He had a mate and she was dying.Sitting close beside her, he opened and closed his wings as if to fan her. I could only admire the love and courage of that butterfly in his concern for his mate. He had taken it up on himself to attack me for his mate’s sake, even though she was clearly dying and I was so large. He did so just to give her those extra few precious moments of life. His courage in attacking something thousands of times larger and h eavier than himself just for his mate’s safety seemed admirable. I couldn’t do anything other than reward him by walking on the more difficult side of the pool. He had truly earned those moments to be with her, undisturbed.Since then, I’ve always tried t o remember the courage of that butterfly whenever I see huge barriers facing me.21.

But they would do well to remember that a new alternative is available—micro-home.Called “tiny houses”, these houses have all living necessities in a small package, including kitchen, bedroom and bathroom. Generally under 50 square meters, most tiny houses accommodate just one or two people though some claim the space for more. What’s lost in size is not lost in design as these homes are often quite unique and modern in design.Besides an attractive appearance, tiny houses can also have unique practical features. Making the best of urban space, the 72- to 122-centimeter-wide Keret House in Warsaw, the world’s narrowest home, fills in an alley. The Ecocapsule home uses solar power, wind power and rainwater collection to enable its owner to live practically anywhere. A system of rails allows the DALE micro-home to adjust room size and number as well as adding the option of an open or enclosed courtyard.Visually appealing as micro-homes are, there are a few drawbacks to consider before getting cozy on a mini-couch. Moving into a tiny house requires the removing of most non-essentials, regardless of the emotional connection to them. Guests will also mostly be out of the question as the limited space may even cause a solitary (独居的) individual to experience some cabin fever (幽闭症). And finally, a micro-home is likely a temporary living option for most people since they will probably start families and acquire more possessions.Though the limitations will scare some, there is usually a benefit. A small size results in a small price tag and small bills, making tiny houses easier to save up for and budget. And though you won’t have much stuff around the house, this can provide the comfort of simple living and repairs. Micro-homes are also practically mobile and have eco-friendliness that can’t be matched by other homes. They probably aren’t for everyone or forever, but when it comes to your next (or first) home, they could be just what you need.25. What can be learnt about micro-homes from the second paragraph?A. People have to eat out as there is no cooking area.B. These homes are poorly designed due to the small size.C. All of the houses are under 50 square meters in size.D.

What can be a suitable title for the text?A. Is Your House Tiny Enough?B. Why Not Enlarge Your House?C. East Or West, Home Is the Best!D. Micro-homes—More Than Tiny!CWith more recognition than Halloween and less than Christmas, Valentine’s Day as an imported festival faces a dangerous situation in China, where it’s caught between forces of tradition and fashion. Valentine’s Day has a natural enemy in China. And it is n ot the Chinese equivalent, which falls on the seventh day of the seventh month on the lunar calendar, usually around half a year away from Feb. 14. It is the Spring Festival, also known as the Chinese New Year, that will influence the Feast of Saint Valentine.The real disagreement between East and West probably took place over a century ago, when China’s door was forced open by Western powers and Chinese scholars supported westernization as a means to strengthen our nation’s ability to compete. The introdu ction of the solar calendar and Western measurements was both an acknowledgment of their influence and an effort to be accepted by the world order.For a full century, we have had two systems running in parallel. When it comes to the eventual outcome, practicality usually beats all other concerns. Laws can help, such as the three traditional festivals of Tomb Sweeping, Dragon Boat and Mid-Autumn gaining legal status in 2008 and giving every Chinese citizen a day off, but laws cannot push what people have no feelings for. So, the celebration or boycott of imported holidays or homegrown ones should be no cause for worry. If they are irrelevant, no social media will change the public’s mind; and if theyare accepted, there must be a need which they happen to satisfy.Since we have no global Qin Shihuang to force one system on every country, we can always rely on a dual (双重) approach by which we share with the outside world on one hand but preserve our own ways of life on the other.29.
