Ⅰ.阅读理解
Do you often listen to music at loud volumes(音量)? You should know that this habit is bad for your hearing according to the World Health Organization(WHO).
Over 1 billion young people are at risk of hearing loss because of listening to loud noise for long periods of time. WHO said, “Listening to music or watching a TV show at loud volumes can harm your hearing.”
The United Nations has standards for safe listening. It is not safe to listen to sounds that are louder than 85 dB(分贝) for eight hours or
2
100 dB for 15 minutes. The sound of a busy road is about 85 dB and the sound of a rock concert can be about 100 dB.
Loud noise is harmful to the inner ear(内耳). Most of us are born with about 16,000 hair cells(毛细胞) in our inner ears. These cells detect sounds. However, listening to loud noise for a long time can make these cells work too hard and cause some of them to die. This is what causes hearing loss.
Some people might think that their music isn't all that loud. But this can depend on where you are. For example, if you are in a noisy place
like the subway, you might turn up your music too loud without realizing it. Later, when you listen to it at the same volume in a quiet place, you might feel uncomfortable.
WHO said the “safe level” for most sound is below 80 dB for up to 40 hours a week. A level of 80 dB is roughly(大约) equal to the noise of a subway.
1.The sound level of a busy road is about ___.
A. 80 dB B. 85 dB C. 90 dB D. 100 dB
【解析】 细节理解题。根据第三段最后一句可知繁忙道路的声音约为85分贝。故选B。
2.What does the underlined word “detect” probably mean in Chinese in
Paragraph 4?___
A. 探测 B. 怀疑 C. 取消 D. 保持
【解析】 词义猜测题。根据上下文语境可知,此处是说这些细胞可以探测到声音。故选A。

3.According to the passage, which of the following is NOT true?___
A. It's proper to turn up music too loud on the subway.
B. Loud music can cause some of hair cells to die.
C. Loud noise does harm to hair cells.
D. We might be uncomfortable to listen to loud music in a quiet place.
【解析】 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“For example, if you are in a noisy place like the subway…feel uncomfortable.”可知,在像地铁里这样的嘈杂环境下人们会不自觉地把音量放大,但在安静的地方听音乐会感到不适。所以A项表述错误。故选A。

【解析】 细节理解题。根据最后一段第一句可知,大多数声音的“安全水平”是在80分贝以下,每周持续40小时。故选D。

Ⅲ.阅读表达(2022日照)
Anne of Green Gables has been a favorite book of teenagers all over the world since it came out in 1908. What it teaches us is simple: How to grow up to be a happy and useful person.
Anne is an 11-year-old orphan who arrives in the town of Avonlea, Canada. She helps Mathew and Marilla Cuthbert, a brother and sister, on their farm.
At first, Mathew and Marilla hope to adopt(收养) a boy, not a thin girl. Will she be of any use on the farm? It seems unlikely: Anne
19
is very imaginative, talkative and easily distracted(分心的). That's not what is needed on a farm.
And yet, Annie proves(证明) that she can actually be useful. She works really hard. But she doesn't lose her great sense of fun and this is why readers love the story. She doesn't become “a good girl”, if “good girl” means knowing only how to work and live unhappily. We see Anne's love for life everywhere. She knows how to enjoy herself, whether it's by eating ice cream or trying on a new dress.
Many stories for children are written to tell them how to be good. Usually, it means doing one's duty(责任) and not having any fun. But that's not the kind of story Canadian author Lucy Maud Montgomery wanted to tell. The book gives readers a helping hand rather than try to scare them into being “good” girls and boys.
1.When was the book first printed?
_________
In 1908.
【解析】 根据“Anne of Green Gables has been a favorite book of teenagers all over the world since it came out in 1908.”可知,这本书是在1908年出版。
22
2.Why do the brother and sister dislike Anne at first?
_____________________________________________________________
Because Anne is very imaginative, talkative and easily distracted.
【解析】 根据第三段“It seems unlikely: Anne is very imaginative, talkative and easily distracted(分心的).”可知,因为安妮很有想象力,健谈,而且很容易分心。
23
3.How does Ann prove herself on the farm?
_______________________________________________________________
She works really hard and she doesn't lose her great sense of fun.
【解析】 根据第四段“She works really hard. But she doesn't lose her great sense of fun and this is why readers love the story.”可知,她工作很努力同时又没有失去她的幽默感。
24
4.What is a usual “good girl” like in the passage?
______________________________________________________
It means knowing only how to work and live unhappily.
【解析】 根据第四段“if ‘good girl’ means knowing only how to work and live unhappily”可知,“好女孩”通常意味着只知道如何不快乐地工作和生活。
25
5.What does the writer of the passage think of the book?
________________________________________________________________
________________________________________________
He thinks that the book gives readers a helping hand rather than try to scare them into being “good” girls and boys.
【解析】 根据“The book gives readers a helping hand rather than try to scare them into being ‘good' girls and boys.”可知,作者认为这本书给了读者更多的帮助,而不是试图吓唬他们成为“好”女孩和“好”男孩。
26
【主旨大意】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了一本很受欢迎的书《绿山墙的安妮》,这本书教给我们一个很简单的道理:如何成长为一个快乐且有用的人。
