If they have an eye for fashion, pets’ owners can dress their pets in pretty clothes. For special occasions, they can use perfume to make their dogs smell nice or less basely. You might see Americans treat their pets like they treat their children, sometimes even better. The most common pets in the US are dogs, cats, birds and fish.

After all, she’s already got her master’s degree. The North Chicago-area girl started homeschooling at the age of 4. She began having an influence on others soon after. When she was 6 years old, she was an inspirational speaker at an organization called Tabitha House Community Service, a shelter for people who were forced to leave their homes due to the situations such as earthquakes, flood and other natural disasters. At the age of 11, she graduated from high school and then earned her bachelor’s degree in psychology in 2013. She completed those classes online as she was traveling for leadership meetings. She doesn’t stop there, though. The girl plans to focus on aviation psychology(航空心理学) for her further study, a decision inspired by her father who is a pilot. She grew up around airplanes and took flights all the time. Her goal is to use it to determine whether pilots are dealing with problems that could have deadly results once the plane takes off—a topic that has been in the news lately. For her, it’s a mix of two of her interests. In her free time, Thessalonika enjoys playing tennis, swimming and being active in her youth group. She also has three self-published books, which are on her site. Jump the Education Barrier is written to help students finish college, and In the Future aims to help business owners deal with trends. Her third book The Genius Race has a wider appeal. It is designed to help people to be geniuses in various areas of life. 49. What can we know about Thessalonika from the passage? A. She majored in science and technology. B. She gained her master’s degree at the age of 11. C. She started homeschooling when she was 6 years old. D. She got her bachelor’s degree through online courses. 50. What is Thessalonika’s next plan according to the passage? A. Majoring in aviation psychology. B. Being active in her youth group. C. Making inspiring speeches for leadership meetings. D. Writing another book to help people to be geniuses. 51. Why does Thessalonika write the book Jump the Education Barrier? A. To help people to be successful. B. To raise concern about psychology. C. To share her own experience with others. D. To give students a hand to complete college. 52. Which of the following can be the best title for the passage? A. Homeschooling B. To Be a Genius C. Three Published Books D. The Story of Thessalonika 【答案】49. D 50. A 51. D 52.

The report’s authors are calling for urgent action to restore the natural world. The Living Planet Report (LPR) is produced every two years by the World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF) and the Zoological Society of London. The most recent report, released on October 13, 2022, shows that almost 70% of the world’s monitored wildlife was lost between 1970 and 2018. The report is based on research from 195 countries around the world. Data was collected from almost 32,000 populations of 5,230 species. Although the average global loss of wildlife is 69%, the rate is greater in the global south. Latin America and the Caribbean in particular have seen the sharpest fall, having lost 94% of their wildlife since 1970. Across the world, the biggest drop was in freshwater populations of wildlife — including almost 1,400 species of mammals, birds, fish, amphibians and reptiles — which have decreased by 83%. The report identifies several causes for wildlife loss, including hunting, farming, the loss of forests, pollution and climate change. However, the report also promotes solutions, such as designing less destructive food production systems, urgently protecting the Amazon rainforest, limiting the use of fossil fuels, and creating new laws to protect our natural environment. Commenting on the report, Marco Lambertini, director general of WWF International, called the figures “terrifying”, and said “we need to restore nature and not simply halt its loss.” In December 2022, world leaders are meeting in Montreal for the 15th UN Biodiversity Conference, also known as COP 15. The authors of the LPR say that this is an opportunity for a global plan to deal with wildlife loss and restore nature. “Government leaders must step up at COP 15,” said Lambertini. “The world is watching.” 53. What does the author mainly want to show by listing the numbers in the first three paragraphs? A. The causes of the urgent situation. B. The detailed process of the research. C. The severity of wildlife loss worldwide. D. The drop in freshwater populations of wildlife? 54. According to the report, what is a possible solution to population decline of wildlife? A. Stop hunting and farming. B. Ban the production of wildlife food. C. Offer legal protection of natural environment. D. Replace the fossil fuels with renewable energy 55. What does the underlined word “halt” mean in the last paragraph? A. Accept. B. Stop. C. Fear. D. Suffer. 56. What is Lambertini’s attitude towards wildlife loss? A. Objective. B. Indifferent. C. Ambiguous. D. Concerned. 【答案】53. C 54. C 55. B 56. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了全球野生动物损失的严重性，因此需要全球共同努力，关注并解决该问题。 【53题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“Animal populations across the world have been reduced by 69% in less than 50 years, according to a new scientific report. The report’s authors are calling for urgent action to restore the natural world.(根据一份新的科学报告，在不到50年的时间里，世界各地的动物数量减少了69%。该报告的作者呼吁采取紧急行动来恢复自然世界)”以及第二段中“The most recent report, released on October 13, 2022, shows that almost 70% of the world’s monitored wildlife was lost between 1970 and 2018. The report is based on research from 195 countries around the world. Data was collected from almost 32,000 populations of 5,230 species.(2022年10月13日发布的最新报告显示，1970年至2018年期间，全球近70%的受监测野生动物消失。该报告基于全球195个国家的研究。数据来自5230个物种的近32000个种群)”以及第三段中“Latin America and the Caribbean in particular have seen the sharpest fall, having lost 94% of their wildlife since 1970. (拉丁美洲和加勒比地区的野生动物数量下降尤其严重，自1970年以来已经失去了94%的野生动物)”可知，作者主要想通过列举前三段的数字来展示世界范围内野生动物损失的严重性。故选C。 【54题详解】 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中“However, the report also promotes solutions, such as designing less destructive food production systems, urgently protecting the Amazon rainforest, limiting the use of fossil fuels, and creating new laws to protect our natural environment.(然而，该报告也提出了解决方案，例如设计破坏性较小的粮食生产系统，紧急保护亚马逊雨林，限制化石燃料的使用，以及制定新的法律来保护我们的自然环境)”可知，根据该报告，为自然环境提供法律保护是解决野生动物数量下降的一个可能的解决方案。故选C。 【55题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线词前面的句子“Commenting on the report, Marco Lambertini, director general of WWF International, called the figures “terrifying”,( 在评论该报告时，世界自然基金会国际总干事马可·兰伯蒂尼称这些数字“令人恐惧”)”以及“we need to restore nature(我们需要恢复自然)”可知，面临野生动物数量急剧下降的情况，我们不仅仅是停止当前的损失，更需要做的是需要去恢复自然。由此可知，划线词halt与stop(停止)意思接近。故选B。 【56题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“The authors of the LPR say that this is an opportunity for a global plan to deal with wildlife loss and restore nature. “Government leaders must step up at COP 15,” said Lambertini. “The world is watching.”(LPR的作者说，这是一个应对野生动物损失和恢复自然的全球计划的机会。兰伯蒂尼说：“政府领导人必须在第15届缔约方会议上采取行动。“全世界都在看着。”)”可知，兰伯蒂尼认为领导人必须在第15届缔约方会议上采取行动。由此推知，他对野生动物数量减少的态度是担心的。故选D。 D Many of us are familiar with the anxiety that can consume us ahead of speaking or performing in public. Throats run dry sweat drops, and it can feel like everyone hears your quickly beating heart. But scientists wondered: Is the anxiety driving the heart to beat faster or could an increased heart rate cause anxiety? A new study published today explores this link in mice, showing that speeding up a mouse’s heart rate made otherwise calm animals act more anxious. The finding indicates heart activity can influence mental state — and finding ways to lower heart rate may be a way to treat mood disorders such as anxiety and depression. The research team introduced ChRmine (泵状光敏感通道蛋白) into heart muscle cells of live mice whose torsos (躯干) were fitted with a vest equipped with a micro light-emitting bulb (电灯泡). Light from the bulb then shined the skin of the mice to stimulate ChRmine within the cells. The result: a small pacemaker made the animals’ hearts beat faster. Because the team could just turn the light on and off, “we were now able to control heart rates using this wearable,” said Ritchie Chen, a bioengineer at Stanford and an author of the study. In the future, Deisseroth and his team want to make periods longer than used in the current experiment to see whether increased heart rate over weeks or months can lead to an increase or worsening of anxiety or depression like behaviors. If the findings can be copied in other settings, particularly with people, they could have potentials for treating mental health conditions. Current medicines are not foolproof and often take months to work. Going through the heart may be a quicker, more effective alternative. “Operating the heart is much easier than operating the brain,” Gogolla says. “We may actually unlock new treatment strategies for patients with anxiety or depressive disorder.” 57. What’s the purpose of the first paragraph? A. To prove previous theories. B. To show the puzzle of the scientists. C. To highlight the importance of the findings. D. To explain the background knowledge of the study. 58. Why is the bulb used in the experiment? A. To see more clearly. B. To relieve anxiety. C. To stimulate ChRmine in the cells. D. To rid the fear of mice. 59. What does Gogolla suggest? A. Clarifying the purpose of the study. B. Realizing the potential of the findings. C. Conducting research on human beings only. D. Carrying out new strategies in the experiment. 60. What is the best title for the text? A. New Dawn on Mood Disorders B. Links between the Heart and the Brain C. Mice Are More Sensitive than Human D. A Newly-designed Vest Is on Sale 【答案】57. D 58. C 59. B 60. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了新研究发现心脏活动可以影响心理状态，而寻找降低心率的方法可能是治疗焦虑和抑郁等情绪障碍的一种方法。 【57题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“Many of us are familiar with the anxiety that can consume us ahead of speaking or performing in public. Throats run dry, sweat drops, and it can feel like everyone hears your quickly beating heart. But scientists wondered: Is the anxiety driving the heart to beat faster or could an increased heart rate cause anxiety?”（我们中的许多人都熟悉在公开演讲或表演之前会消耗我们的焦虑。喉咙发干，汗水滴落，感觉每个人都能听到你快速跳动的心脏。但科学家们想知道：是焦虑驱使心脏跳得更快，还是心率加快导致焦虑？）可知，该段描述了许多人熟悉的焦虑，提出了疑问，因此解释了新的研究的背景知识。故选D项。 【58题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“Light from the bulb then shined the skin of the mice to stimulate ChRmine within the cells.”（然后灯泡发出的光照射到老鼠的皮肤上，刺激细胞内的泵状光敏感通道蛋白。）可知，实验中用到灯泡是为了刺激细胞内的泵状光敏感通道蛋白。故选C项。 【59题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中Gogolla的话“Operating the heart is much easier than operating the brain”（操作心脏比操作大脑容易得多）和“We may actually unlock new treatment strategies for patients with anxiety or depressive disorder.”（我们可能会为焦虑或抑郁症患者提供新的治疗策略。）可知，Gogolla认为研究也许可以通过操作心脏来治疗为焦虑或抑郁症患者。因此，他是在建议要认识到研究结果的潜力。故选B项。 【60题详解】 标题判断题。通读全文可知，文章介绍了新研究发现心脏活动可以影响心理状态，而寻找降低心率的方法可能是治疗焦虑和抑郁等情绪障碍的一种方法。因此，A项“情绪障碍的新曙光”突出了研究结果，符合文章大意，适合作为标题。故选A项。 第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) Establishing healthy boundaries with yourself will help you stay within your range of control and prioritize what matters most. Here are some tips. Be honest with yourself Behind every fancy purchase is a desire for status and recognition. You secretly want to be noticed for wearing a new watch or carrying a designer purse. ____61____So before taking action towards any attempt, such as making an expensive purchase or pursuing a job promotion, ask yourself, “Who am I doing this for?”____62____ However, if you are pursuing something with the hopes of attracting attention, then you need to say no to yourself. Honor your limits ____63____Trying to please everyone makes you vulnerable (脆弱的). The truth is you have limited energy and time. It is important that you are wise with your resources. The importance of honoring your limits is highlighted by the Greek mythological story. The story is a reminder that pushing yourself too hard for too long ultimately comes at a cost. Stop comparing yourself to others People will engage in behaviors that trigger you. It might be tempting to enter an undeclared competition with the Joneses. This approach does not work because there is always someone out there who has more of what you desire. Stop comparing yourself to others. ____64____Focus on living a meaningful life that is consistent with your values and goals. ____65____ You are likely your worst critic. You secretly say things to yourself that you would never have the heart to tell others. Remember to have realistic expectations of yourself. When you set goals, consider whether you have set the standard at a reasonable level. If the goal is unrealistic, then you have to say no and adjust your expectations. A. Be fair to yourself. B. Stay true to yourself. C. You can’t be everything for everyone. D. The reality is that you are not being recognized. E. What someone is doing with their life has nothing to do with you. F.

A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文，本文针对为自己设定健康的界限提出了一些建议。 【61题详解】 根据上文“Behind every fancy purchase is a desire for status and recognition. You secretly want to be noticed for wearing a new watch or carrying a designer purse.(你暗地里想要因为戴了新手表或拿了名牌钱包而引起注意)”以及下文“So before taking action towards any attempt, such as making an expensive purchase or pursuing a job promotion, ask yourself, ‘Who am I doing this for?’(因此，在采取任何行动之前，比如购买昂贵的东西或追求升职，问问自己：‘我做这些是为了谁？’)”可知，上文提到想要用新手表或名牌包而吸引别人注意的行为，下文说在购买昂贵的东西之前问问自己是为了谁，由此说明上文想要用昂贵的东西吸引别人的行为不奏效，D项“现实是你没有被认出来”符合语境，故选D。 【62题详解】 根据下文“However, if you are pursuing something with the hopes of attracting attention, then you need to say no to yourself.(然而，如果你是为了吸引别人注意而追求某件事，那么你需要对自己说不)”可知，空处与下文是转折关系，应是描述可以去追求的情况，F项“如果一种追求真的能提高你的生活质量，那就去追求吧”符合语境，故选F。 【63题详解】 根据本段小标题“Honor your limits(尊重你的极限)”下文“Trying to please everyone makes you vulnerable (脆弱的).(试图取悦每个人会让你变得脆弱)”可知，此处是描述要尊重自己的极限的原因，C项“你不可能成为所有人的一切”符合语境，故选C。 【64题详解】 根据上文“Stop comparing yourself to others.(不要拿自己和别人比较)”和下文“Focus on living a meaningful life that is consistent with your values and goals.(专注于与你的价值观和目标一致的有意义的生活)”可知，本段是说不要和别人比较，专注于自己的事情，故E项“别人在做什么与你无关”符合语境，故选E。 【65题详解】 空处是段落小标题，根据本段中“You are likely your worst critic. You secretly say things to yourself that you would never have the heart to tell others. Remember to have realistic expectations of yourself. When you set goals, consider whether you have set the standard at a reasonable level.(你可能是自己最严厉的批评者。你会偷偷地对自己说一些你不忍心告诉别人的话。记住要对自己有现实的期望。当你设定目标时，考虑一下你是否把标准设定在一个合理的水平上。)”可知，本段是说对自己的期望要实际一点，设定适度的目标，公平对待自己，故A项“对自己公平”符合语境，故选A。 第四部分 语言运用(共两节，满分30分) 第一节 完形填空(共15小题;每小题1分，满分15分) 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 My name is Carmen Cruz and I am seventy-seven years old.

After all, she’s already got her master’s degree. The North Chicago-area girl started homeschooling at the age of 4. She began having an influence on others soon after. When she was 6 years old, she was an inspirational speaker at an organization called Tabitha House Community Service, a shelter for people who were forced to leave their homes due to the situations such as earthquakes, flood and other natural disasters. At the age of 11, she graduated from high school and then earned her bachelor’s degree in psychology in 2013. She completed those classes online as she was traveling for leadership meetings. She doesn’t stop there, though. The girl plans to focus on aviation psychology(航空心理学) for her further study, a decision inspired by her father who is a pilot. She grew up around airplanes and took flights all the time. Her goal is to use it to determine whether pilots are dealing with problems that could have deadly results once the plane takes off—a topic that has been in the news lately. For her, it’s a mix of two of her interests. In her free time, Thessalonika enjoys playing tennis, swimming and being active in her youth group. She also has three self-published books, which are on her site. Jump the Education Barrier is written to help students finish college, and In the Future aims to help business owners deal with trends. Her third book The Genius Race has a wider appeal. It is designed to help people to be geniuses in various areas of life. 49. What can we know about Thessalonika from the passage? A. She majored in science and technology. B. She gained her master’s degree at the age of 11. C. She started homeschooling when she was 6 years old. D. She got her bachelor’s degree through online courses. 50. What is Thessalonika’s next plan according to the passage? A. Majoring in aviation psychology. B. Being active in her youth group. C. Making inspiring speeches for leadership meetings. D. Writing another book to help people to be geniuses. 51. Why does Thessalonika write the book Jump the Education Barrier? A. To help people to be successful. B. To raise concern about psychology. C. To share her own experience with others. D. To give students a hand to complete college. 52. Which of the following can be the best title for the passage? A. Homeschooling B. To Be a Genius C. Three Published Books D. The Story of Thessalonika C Animal populations across the world have been reduced by 69% in less than 50 years, according to a new scientific report. The report’s authors are calling for urgent action to restore the natural world. The Living Planet Report (LPR) is produced every two years by the World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF) and the Zoological Society of London. The most recent report, released on October 13, 2022, shows that almost 70% of the world’s monitored wildlife was lost between 1970 and 2018. The report is based on research from 195 countries around the world. Data was collected from almost 32,000 populations of 5,230 species. Although the average global loss of wildlife is 69%, the rate is greater in the global south. Latin America and the Caribbean in particular have seen the sharpest fall, having lost 94% of their wildlife since 1970. Across the world, the biggest drop was in freshwater populations of wildlife — including almost 1,400 species of mammals, birds, fish, amphibians and reptiles — which have decreased by 83%. The report identifies several causes for wildlife loss, including hunting, farming, the loss of forests, pollution and climate change. However, the report also promotes solutions, such as designing less destructive food production systems, urgently protecting the Amazon rainforest, limiting the use of fossil fuels, and creating new laws to protect our natural environment. Commenting on the report, Marco Lambertini, director general of WWF International, called the figures “terrifying”, and said “we need to restore nature and not simply halt its loss.” In December 2022, world leaders are meeting in Montreal for the 15th UN Biodiversity Conference, also known as COP 15. The authors of the LPR say that this is an opportunity for a global plan to deal with wildlife loss and restore nature. “Government leaders must step up at COP 15,” said Lambertini. “The world is watching.” 53 What does the author mainly want to show by listing the numbers in the first three paragraphs? A. The causes of the urgent situation. B. The detailed process of the research. C. The severity of wildlife loss worldwide. D. The drop in freshwater populations of wildlife? 54. According to the report, what is a possible solution to population decline of wildlife? A. Stop hunting and farming. B. Ban the production of wildlife food. C. Offer legal protection of natural environment. D. Replace the fossil fuels with renewable energy 55. What does the underlined word “halt” mean in the last paragraph? A. Accept. B. Stop. C. Fear. D. Suffer. 56. What is Lambertini’s attitude towards wildlife loss? A. Objective. B. Indifferent. C. Ambiguous. D. Concerned. D Many of us are familiar with the anxiety that can consume us ahead of speaking or performing in public. Throats run dry, sweat drops, and it can feel like everyone hears your quickly beating heart. But scientists wondered: Is the anxiety driving the heart to beat faster or could an increased heart rate cause anxiety? A new study published today explores this link in mice, showing that speeding up a mouse’s heart rate made otherwise calm animals act more anxious. The finding indicates heart activity can influence mental state — and finding ways to lower heart rate may be a way to treat mood disorders such as anxiety and depression. The research team introduced ChRmine (泵状光敏感通道蛋白) into heart muscle cells of live mice whose torsos (躯干) were fitted with a vest equipped with a micro light-emitting bulb (电灯泡). Light from the bulb then shined the skin of the mice to stimulate ChRmine within the cells. The result: a small pacemaker made the animals’ hearts beat faster. Because the team could just turn the light on and off, “we were now able to control heart rates using this wearable,” said Ritchie Chen, a bioengineer at Stanford and an author of the study. In the future, Deisseroth and his team want to make periods longer than used in the current experiment to see whether increased heart rate over weeks or months can lead to an increase or worsening of anxiety or depression like behaviors. If the findings can be copied in other settings, particularly with people, they could have potentials for treating mental health conditions. Current medicines are not foolproof and often take months to work. Going through the heart may be a quicker, more effective alternative. “Operating the heart is much easier than operating the brain,” Gogolla says. “We may actually unlock new treatment strategies for patients with anxiety or depressive disorder.” 57. What’s the purpose of the first paragraph? A. To prove previous theories. B. To show the puzzle of the scientists. C. To highlight the importance of the findings. D. To explain the background knowledge of the study. 58. Why is the bulb used in the experiment? A. To see more clearly. B. To relieve anxiety. C. To stimulate ChRmine in the cells. D. To rid the fear of mice. 59. What does Gogolla suggest? A. Clarifying the purpose of the study. B. Realizing the potential of the findings. C. Conducting research on human beings only. D. Carrying out new strategies in the experiment. 60. What is the best title for the text? A. New Dawn on Mood Disorders B. Links between the Heart and the Brain C. Mice Are More Sensitive than Human D. A Newly-designed Vest Is on Sale 第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) Establishing healthy boundaries with yourself will help you stay within your range of control and prioritize what matters most.
