A. Wildlife Diaries. B. Science walking tours 2021. C. University social club swimming. D. Online Talk-about Kettle’s Yard. 【答案】21-23 BAC 【解析】本文是一篇应用文。文章主要介绍了Cambridge Festival的四项活动和相关信息。 21.细节理解题。根据文章Wildlife Diaries中的“...and then get your questions ready for a live wildlife Q& A with our experts.”（然后准备好你的问题，与我们的专家进行现场野生动物问答。）可知，在Wildlife Diaries活动中，可以现场向专家咨询关于野生动物的问题。故选B。 22.细节理解题。根据Online Talk — about Kettle’s Yard中的“The talk will look at some of the fascinating stories behind these pieces and why they are so important to Kettle’s Yard.”和“Time: 6:00pm-7:00 pm Thursday15April”可知，4月15日星期四可以知道隐藏物背后引人入胜的故事。故选A。 23.细节理解题。根据University social club swimming中的最后一句“Please note: this event has been CANCELLED.”（请注意：此活动已被取消。）可知，大学社交俱乐部游泳目前不开放。故选C。 B I suspect that we socialize more during the spring and summer months. Under the warm sun, yards bloom with cold drinks and conversation, barbecues get fired up, and parties quickly spill outside. Shifting these sweet summer parties to ones that are also waste-free can be both simple and inexpensive, with just a few small changes to your habits. The first step is to keep invitations virtual. Creating a Facebook event or sending a simple email is perfect for inviting guests to your party without generating waste from paper invitations, and if you’re looking for something a bit more formal, sites such as Greenvelope and Paperless Post have given the cheesy e-invitation a brilliant makeover. Virtual invites also allow you to track RSVPs, communicate with guests, and provide clickable information about your event. To decorate, make use of the candles, flowers and greenery already in your outdoor space rather than stocking up on store-bought flowers, and consider using decorations that can be reused (like a cloth happy birthday banner, for example) rather than one-time use decorations. Skip the balloons in favour of large tissue paper pom-poms, and offer up any decorations still in decent condition to a free group after the event rather than just tossing them out. The most obvious way to cut down on party waste, of course, is by getting rid of disposable plates, cups and things like that. I shouldn’t have to do much convincing in this department – does anyone actually enjoy using those paper plates that fold in half when you pile them high with too much salad or drip oil through the bottom? Has anyone in the history of the world ever actually successfully cut anything with one of those completely useless plastic knives? There really isn’t much to be gained from using disposables. With these shifts and a few other small adjustments here and there – paper straws instead of plastic, a large drink dispenser(饮水器) rather than individual soft drinks or juice boxes – you’ll be set to celebrate all summer long, without suffering the accompanying garbage hangover the next day. 24. What does the underlined word “cheesy” in the second paragraph mean? A. Free. B. Formal. C. Plain. D. Inviting. 25. What should we do with used decorations in good condition? A. Donate them. B. Sell them. C. Put them away. D. Throw them away. 26. Why does the writer dislike paper plates? A. They’re too expensive. B. They’re not practical. C. They’re not convincing. D. They’re not popular. 27. Which is the best title for the passage? A. How to hold a successful garden party. B. Summer garden party habits. C. How to hold greener summer parties . D. How to entertain your guests. 答案： 24-27 CABC 【解析】24. 词义猜测题。根据题干，定位至线索于if you’re looking for something a bit more formal, sites such as Greenvelope and Paperless Post have given the cheesy e-vite a brilliant makeover，关键在于理解sth is more formal，因此B不对。另外，还需要理解brilliant makeover，因此本词应指非brilliant事物。故选C。本题在于考察选项中plain和inviting的熟词生义。 25. 细节理解题。根据文章第三段，offer up any decorations still in decent condition to a free group after the event可知，在聚会结束之后，那些保存完好的装饰品应捐赠给一些free group。故选A。本题主要考察文中decent condition与题干good condition、free group与donate的对应意义。 26. 推理判断题。根据文章第四段，I shouldn’t have to do much convincing in this department – does anyone actually enjoy using those paper plates that fold in half when you pile them high with too much greek salad or drip oil through the bottom? Has anyone in the history of the world ever actually successfully cut anything with one of those completely useless plastic knives? There really isn’t much to be gained from using disposables可知，我不应该在这方面做太多令人信服的事情--真的有人喜欢使用那些纸盘，当你把它们高高地堆放在太多的希腊沙拉或从底部滴下的油中时，这些纸盘会对折吗？世界历史上有没有人真的用一把完全没用的塑料刀成功地切割过什么东西？使用一次性用品真的没什么好处。故选B。本题在于考察选项中practical的含义以及长难句理解。 27. 主旨大意题。根据本文第一段中的waste-free可知，本文主要讲述如何举办更加环保的菊花，故选C。本题主要考察waste-free和选项中green的理解。 C Bridging the gap between simple automation(自动化) and robots that can communicate with humans naturally is a big challenge, but major progress has been made in the past few years. Research into social robots has shown that machines that respond to emotion(情感) can help the elderly and children, and could lead to robots becoming more widely socially acceptable. Milo is both a robotic teacher and a student. Developers RoboKind created Milo to help children with autism(自闭症) learn more about emotional expression and empathy(共鸣) while collecting data on their progress to target learning and treatment. Milo’s friendly face makes himself kind and the children are able to read his expressions. Robots can also reduce stress in hospital settings. Expper Tech’s Robin was designed as a robot to provide emotional support for children with medical treatment. Robin explains medical details to them, plays games and tells stories, and during treatment draws their attention away to reduce their feeling of pain. Expper’s robot uses Artificial Intelligence(AI) to create empathy, remembering expressions and conversations to build conversation for follow-up sessions. In trials at the Wigmore Medical Pediatric Clinic in Yerevan. Armenia, the team found that Robin led to a 34% weakening in stress and improve happiness of 26% in the 120 children who interacted(互动) with him at least once. Today’s simple systems are being trained to meet that demand. This includes ProxEmo, a little wheeled robot that can guess how you are feeling from the way you walk, and ENRICHME who helps older people to stay physically and mentally active. The problem is the fear that human jobs may be lost as robots become better at dealing with social situations. 28. What makes children feel Milo’s kindness? A. Milo’s appearance. B. Milo’s speech. C. Milo’s hospital settings. D. Milo’s way of walking. 29. How does the author show Robin’s advantage in paragraph 5? A. By listing numbers. B. By making comments. C. By following the time order. D. By explaining the process. 30. Which is the best choice for an old man who wants to be active? A. Milo. B. Robin. C. ProxEmo. D. ENRICHME. 31. What do people mainly worry about? A. Robots can’t meet their demand. B. Some people will be out of work. C. A robot isn’t widely acceptable. D. Robots can’t deal with problems. 答案：AADB 【解析】 28.细节理解题。根据第三段最后一句“Milo’s friendly face makes himself kind and the children are able to read his expressions.”（麦洛很面善，孩子们能够读懂他的表情。）可知，麦洛的外貌能让孩子们感觉他很友好。故选A。 29.推理判断题。根据第五段“In trials at the Wigmore Medical Pediatric Clinic in Yerevan. Armenia, the team found that Robin led to a 34% weakening in stress and improve happiness of 26% in the 120 children who interacted(互动) with him at least once.”（在亚美尼亚埃里温的威格莫尔儿科诊所进行的试验中，研究小组发现，在120个与罗宾至少接触过一次的孩子中，罗宾使孩子的压力降低了34%，增加了他们26%的幸福感。）可推知，作者通过列举数据解释罗宾的优势。故选A。 30.细节理解题。根据最后一段“ENRICHME who helps older people to stay physically and mentally active”知，一名想要活跃起来的老人的最佳选择是ENRICHME。故选D。 31.细节理解题。根据最后一段最后一句“The problem is the fear that human jobs may be lost as robots become better at dealing with social situations.”（问题在于人们担心，随着机器人变得更善于解决一些社会问题，人类可能会失去工作。）可知，人们主要担心一些人会失业。故选B。 D Advice to “sleep on it” could be well founded, scientists say. After a good night’s sleep a problem that couldn’t be solved the night before can often appear more manageable, although the evidence until now has been anecdotal. But researchers at the University of Luebek in Germany have designed an experiment that shows a good night’s sleep can improve insight and problem-solving. “If you have some newly-got memories in your brain, sleep acts on these memories and restructures them, so that after sleep the insight into problem which you could not solve before increases,” said Dr. Jan Born, a neuroscientist, at the university. To test the theory, they taught volunteers two simple rules to help them turn a string of numbers into a new order. There was also a third, hidden rule, which could help them increase their speed in solving the problem. The researchers divided the volunteers into two groups: half were allowed to sleep after the training while the rest were forced to stay awake. Dr. Jan Born and his team noticed that the group that had slept after the training were twice as likely to figure out the third rule as the other group. “Sleep helped,” Born said in a telephone interview. “The important thing is that you have to have a memory representation in your brain of the problem you want to solve and then you sleep, so it can act on the problem. “But Born admitted that he and his team don’t know how restructuring of memories occurs or what governs it. Pierre Maquet and Perrine Ruby of the University of Liege in Belgium said the experimental evidence supports the anecdotal suggestions that sleep can help develop creative thinking. Although the role of sleep in human creativity will still be a mystery, the research gives people good reason to fully respect their periods of sleep, they added. 1.The underlined phrase “sleep on it” in Paragraph 1 probably means _____. A.to get as much sleep as possible B.to go on sleeping without being disturbed C.to delay deciding something until the next day D.to sleep till after the time you usually get up in the morning 2.What is the purpose of the experiment? A.To test problem-solving ability in sleep. B.To discover people’s insight during sleep. C.To prove a good sleep helps solve problems. D.To discuss how to improve sleeping quality. 3.How did Jan Born and his team carry out the experiment? A.Through comparison. B.Through interviews. C.Through talks. D.Through imagination. 4.What can we learn about the experimental evidence? A.It helps scientists control memories. B.It explains the role of sleep in human. C.It tells us the role of sleep is a mystery. D.It shows sleep does good to creative thinking. 答案：1.C; 2.C; 3.A; 4.D 【解析】1.词义猜测题。根据后文After a good night’s sleep a problem that couldn’t be solved the night before can often appear more manageable可知,睡了一夜好觉后,前一天晚上无法解决的问题通常会显得更容易处理,由此可知,科学家们表示,“推迟到第二天再做决定”的建议是有充分根据的。即划线短语意思为“推迟到第二天再做决定“”。故选C。 2.推理判断题。根据第一段中But researchers at the University of Luebek in Germany have designed an experiment that shows a good night’s sleep can improve insight and problem-solving.可知,这个实验的目的是证明良好的睡眠有助于解决问题。故选C。 3.推理判断题。根据第二段中The researchers divided the volunteers into two groups: half were allowed to sleep after the training while the rest were forced to stay awake.以及第三段中Dr. Jan Born and his team noticed that the group that had slept after the training were twice as likely to figure out the third rule as the other group.可推知,Jan Born和他的团队是通过比较进行实验的。故选A。 4.细节理解题。根据最后一段中Pierre Maquet and Perrine Ruby of the University of Liege in Belgium said the experimental evidence supports the anecdotal suggestions that sleep can help develop creative thinking.可知,我们能从实验证据中了解到,睡眠对创造性思维有好处。故选D。 第二节（共5小题；每小题2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。 We all suffer from stress from time to time. At work or at home, there are times when our stress levels get too high. So how are your strategies for dealing with it? We interviewed some psychologists, and asked them for their practical strategies for getting through these difficult periods, and here is the advice they gave. 1. Identify the cause If you are having problems with tense muscles, overtiredness, headaches or migraines, it is quite possibly stress-related. Is it your job, relationship, living situation or something else? Problems can be divided into three categories: those with a practical solution, those that will get better with time and those outside your control. 36 2. Move your body Exercise won’t cure your stress, but it can help to clear your head and make you feel as if you’re gaining some control. Try something new: yoga may be calming, but there’s nothing more thrilling than hitting a punchbag. Don’t make it more stressful by drinking, smoking and downing double coffees. 37 3. Talk it through If you are the kind of person who is open to advice, find a friend to have a moan with. Friends can work as a support group, sounding board and – if there is some obvious solution you haven’t considered yet – they may provide you with solutions. 38 4. Ditch the phone This doesn’t mean put it on “do not disturb” and look at it less. 39 Put it in a drawer an hour before bed and ignore it – have a bath, watch a film or read a book. You won’t check your work emails and you will stop scrolling through the seemingly endless achievements of your peers that will make you panic and feel as if you are getting nowhere. Breathe. 5. Make a list Having too much to do may cause you to move around because, if you are moving faster, it feels as if you are getting more done – but this is a false impression. Make a to-do list. 40 That way, you will approach the big things already feeling good. A. Everyone knows that is not a proper solution. B. Learn to focus on the first kind; ignore the others. C. Stress can be useful at times, so try to learn to welcome it. D. Imagine yourself lying on a beach, or in some other pleasant, peaceful place. E. These aren’t fixes, and they will only make you feel physically and mentally worse. F. Do the big, important things last, after you have achieved several of the small things. G. Sometimes, you can’t see the easy way out of a situation when you are standing right in the middle of it. 36-40 BEGAF 【解析】：心理学家就“如何应对压力”提出了五条建议。 36. B. 逻辑衔接，前面一句说：“问题可以分为三类:有实际解决方案的问题，会随着时间变得更好的问题，以及无法控制的问题。”选项B接着提出如何应对这三种问题。选项B是对前一句的进一步说明。 37.E．逻辑和词汇衔接。前一句提到“不要通过喝酒、抽烟和喝双份浓缩咖啡来加剧压力”，选项E “这些都不是治疗方法，它们只会让你的身体和精神更糟糕。”选项E分析原因，为什么不能这么做。其中的代词these指代前一句提到的不适合的几种行为。 38. G. 逻辑衔接。前一句说“有一些明显的解决方案你还没有考虑到”，选项G“有时候当你身处其中时，会找不到简单的解决问题的方法”，该选项说明了前一句你要听取朋友意见的原因。 39.A．逻辑和词汇衔接。选项A中的that指代前一句中的“把电话放在‘请勿打扰’‘少看它’，选项A说明前一句的方法不可取，下文继续说明应该如何处置电话，如何应对。 40. F. 逻辑衔接。前一句“列一个待办事项清单”，选项F，进一步说明按照清单，应该如何去做。 原创精品资源学科网独家享有版权，侵权必究！1 $
