A
Filming Locations You Can Actually Visit
Mars (The Martian)
When you search for a location to stand in for the surface of another world, The Wadi Rum Protected Area in far southern Jordan is a good place to start. With the impressive “vast and echoing and God-like” landscape, it served as the background of Matt Damon’s 18-month stay on the red planet in The Martian.
Jurassic Park
The Hawaiian islands were the locations for some of Jurassic Park’s most memorable scenes. Kauai provides the rough coastline and some of the most breathtaking features of the fictional Isla Nublar, while the rolling hills of Oahu’s Kualoa Ranch function as the background of the Gallimimus stampede (逃亡).
Hobbiton
Unlike the other locations in this list, the Shire is a wholly artificial set, built on a sheep farm on New Zealand ‘s North Island. Created for Peter Jackson’s big-screen adaptation of J.R.R. Tolkien’s The Lord of the Rings trilogy, Hobbiton began to draw curious fans shortly after the release of the first film in the series. In time, what began as a temporary location designed to host a three-month movie shoot has evolved into a Tolkienesque theme park with over 350,000 visitors annually.
King’s Landing
The HBO series Game of Thrones brings to life the many locations of George R.R. Martin’s fantasy world, but the conflict of sex, swords, and trickery reaches its peak in the capital of King’s Landing. The “real” capital of Westeros can be found in Dubrovnik, Croatia. The city’s 16th-century fortress walls overlook Blackwater Bay, while the parks, avenues, and alleys of the old city have witnessed the triumphs and tragedies of House Lannister.
1. Which of the four locations should you visit if you are a big fan of J.R.R. Tolkien?
A Mars (The Martian). B. Jurassic Park. C. Hobbiton. D. King’s Landing.
2. What do the movie locations Mars and Jurassic Park have in common?
A. They are both on the coast. B. They demonstrate magnificent views.
C. They can represent another world. D. They are set for only one film.
3. What can visitors do in King’s Landing?
A. See ancient fortress walls. B. Play roles in Game of Thrones.
C. Visit George R.R. Martin. D. Experience the triumphs and tragedies.
【答案】1. C 2. B 3. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇应用文,主要介绍的是可以参观的电影拍摄地点的相关信息。
【1题详解】
细节理解题。根据Hobbiton部分的“Created for Peter Jackson’s big-screen adaptation of J.R.R. Tolkien’s The Lord of the Rings trilogy, Hobbiton began to draw curious fans shortly after the release of the first film in the series. In time, what began as a temporary location designed to host a three-month movie shoot has evolved into a Tolkienesque theme park with over 350,000 visitors annually.(Hobbiton是Peter Jackson根据J.R.R. Tolkien的《指环王》三部曲改编的电影,在该系列第一部上映后不久就吸引了好奇的粉丝。随着时间的推移,这个最初用于举办为期三个月的电影拍摄的临时地点已经演变成一个托尔金式的主题公园,每年有超过35万游客。)”可知,如果你是J.R.R. Tolkien的忠实粉丝,你应该去Hobbiton,故选C。
【2题详解】
细节理解题。根据Mars (The Martian)部分的“With the impressive “vast and echoing and God-like” landscape, it served as the background of Matt Damon’s 18-month stay on the red planet in The Martian.(在《火星救援》中,马特·达蒙在火星上停留了18个月,这里有着令人印象深刻的“辽阔、回声回荡、像上帝一样”的景观。)”和Jurassic Park部分的“Kauai provides the rough coastline and some of the most breathtaking features of the fictional Isla Nublar, while the rolling hills of Oahu’s Kualoa Ranch function as the background of the Gallimimus stampede (逃亡).(Kauai提供了崎岖的海岸线和虚构的Isla Nublar的一些最令人惊叹的特征,而Oahu的Kualoa Ranch的起伏的山丘则是Gallimimus大逃亡的背景。)”可知,Mars和Jurassic Park的拍摄地的共同之处是它们展示了壮丽的景色。故选B。
【3题详解】
细节理解题。根据King’s Landing部分的“The city’s 16th-century fortress walls overlook Blackwater Bay, while the parks, avenues, and alleys of the old city have witnessed the triumphs and tragedies of House Lannister.(这座城市16世纪的堡垒城墙俯瞰着黑水湾,而老城的公园、大道和小巷见证了Lannister家族的胜利和悲剧。)”可知,游客在King’s Landing可以看看古老的堡垒城墙。故选A。
B
I truly believe we all have a very special purpose in life, regardless of who we are or where we come from. After ten years of working for a major Wall Street bank, I wanted to do something challenging. So when I read a Merrill Lynch advertisement looking to hire more stockbrokers (股票经纪人), with great excitement, I made some phone calls and arranged to meet with one of its branch vice presidents. After this interview and interviews with twelve of his top stockbrokers, I eventually landed the job.
The first few months was a struggle. I lived on very little commission (佣金). Night after night, I left the office weary and exhausted, ready to give up, yet somehow returning the next morning to start anew day. Eventually, all the hard work paid off. In less than four years, I became one of the top sales people at my branch and increased personal sales by 1,700 percent. The success earned me a six-figure income, promotion and numerous sales awards.
Toward the end of my fourth year at Merrill Lynch, it hit me that something was missing. I thought long and hard about my goals. Then I was reminded of the time when I spoke to hundreds of people, while in college as a student leader, and years later, when I won a “Humorous Speech” championship. It dawned on me that every time I had a speaking engagement, I always came out of the experience with a wonderful, energetic, peaceful and magical feeling that was unmatched by anything else I did. I knew the extraordinary public-speaking skills I was blessed with could enable me to make a lasting difference and transform other people’s lives.
Then I took another daring risk, gave up everything and left the investment business for a more satisfying career as a motivational speaker. The beginning of my speaking journey was surprisingly similar to what I had first experienced at Merrill Lynch. However, nothing in the world comes close to the satisfying feeling I get when thousands of people tell me how much I have made a difference in their lives by motivating them to take risks and be the best they could be.
4. Why did the author meet with a Merrill Lynch branch vice president?
A. To arrange an interview. B. To make an advertisement.
C. To employ more clerks. D. To get a position.
5. Which of the following best describes the author according to paragraph 2?
A. Tolerant and ambitious. B. Demanding and successful.
C. Tough and competent. D. Optimistic and agreeable.
6. Why did the author leave Merrill Lynch?
A. He hoped to relive college life. B. He wanted to influence others’ lives.
C. He had an engagement. D. His investment was not satisfying.
7. Which is the most suitable title for the text?
A. Speaking Makes a Satisfying Job B. Challenge Your Career Choice
C. Hard Work Pays Off D. Dare to Take Risks
【答案】4 D 5. C 6. B 7. D
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章作者用自身经历告诉我们要敢于挑战、敢于冒险。
【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第一段“So when I read a Merrill Lynch advertisement looking to hire more stockbrokers (股票经纪人), with great excitement, I made some phone calls and arranged to meet with one of its branch vice presidents. After this interview and interviews with twelve of his top stockbrokers, I eventually landed the job.(因此,当我看到美林公司招聘更多股票经纪人的广告时,我非常兴奋地打了几个电话,并安排与该公司的一位分行副总裁会面。经过这次面试和他的12位顶级股票经纪人的面试,我最终得到了这份工作)”可知,作者与美林公司分行副总裁会面,是为了获得股票经纪人这个岗位。故选D项。
【5题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第二段“The first few months was a struggle. I lived on very little commission (佣金). Night after night, I left the office weary and exhausted, ready to give up, yet somehow returning the next morning to start anew day. Eventually, all the hard work paid off. In less than four years, I became one of the top sales people at my branch and increased personal sales by 1,700 percent. The success earned me a six-figure income, promotion and numerous sales awards.(最初的几个月很艰难。我靠很少的佣金生活。一夜又一夜,我疲惫不堪地离开办公室,准备放弃,但第二天早上又不知怎么地回来,开始新的一天。最终,所有的努力都得到了回报。在不到四年的时间里,我成为了分公司最优秀的销售人员之一,个人销售额增长了1700%。这次成功为我赢得了六位数的收入、晋升和无数的销售奖励)”可知,作者最初的几个月很艰难,只能靠很少的佣金生活,但在不到四年的时间里,作者成为了分公司最优秀的销售人员之一。由此推知,作者虽然过得艰难,但是也很有能力。故选C项。
【6题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第三段最后一句话“I knew the extraordinary public-speaking skills I was blessed with could enable me to make a lasting difference and transform other people’s lives.(我知道我所拥有的非凡的公共演讲技巧可以使我产生持久的影响,并改变别人的生活)”和第四段第一句话“Then I took another daring risk, gave up everything and left the investment business for a more satisfying career as a motivational speaker.(然后,我又冒了一次大胆的风险,放弃了一切,离开了投资行业,去做一名更令人满意的励志演说家)”可知,作者离开美林公司,离开投资行业,去做一名励志演说家,是希望用自己的演讲技巧改变别人的生活,影响别人。故选B项。
【7题详解】
主旨大意题。阅读文章,尤其是第一段第二句“After ten years of working for a major Wall Street bank, I wanted to do something challenging.(在华尔街一家大银行工作了十年之后,我想做一些具有挑战性的事情)”和最后一段第一句“Then I took another daring risk, gave up everything and left the investment business for a more satisfying career as a motivational speaker.(然后,我又冒了一次大胆的风险,放弃了一切,离开了投资行业,去做一名更令人满意的励志演说家)”可知,作者用自身经历告诉我们要敢于挑战,敢于冒险。由此可知,D项“Dare to Take Risks(敢于冒险)”最能概括本文主旨。故选D项。

HARDCORE TANO*C is an independent Japanese music label that is known for releasing music compilations and albums focused on various forms of hardcore techno such as UK hardcore, happy hardcore, and gabber. The label was founded in 2003 by Yoshikazu Nagai (who at the time used the Akai Hito alias), originally under the name of Hardcore Tanoshii, but changed to its current name of HARDCORE TANO*C in 2007 after the release of the album HARDCORE SYNDROME. The label features a store which sells the most notable doujin (同人)music releases, and is well known for their frequent live events that are regularly organized throughout the years, including the annual TANO*C TOUR series of events and the S2TBTANO*C events done in collaboration with kors k’s S2TB Recording label.
From 2011 to 2018, HARDCORE TANO*C were very closely linked with BEMANI, most notably in beat mania IIDX and SOUND VOLTEX. Many of HARDCORE TANO*C’s members were frequent contributors to BEMANI,and KONAMI even collaborated with the label for a few of their own album releases. Their presence also expanded to various other music game titles.
Many guest artists have appeared in HARDCORE TANO*C compilations, including Ryu☆, kors k, DJ Shimamura, m1dy, M-Project, JAKAZiD (as Joshka), Hommarju, Camellia, lapix, C-Show, Maozon, Nhato, Dustvoxx, and Akira Complex.
By the end of 2017, HARDCORE TANO*C has started to produce major artist album releases, containing licensed works done for music games by the circle’s artists. From September 2018, a sub-label directed by DJ Myosuke named HARDCORE TANO*C HARD has been established, which focuses on harsher music. HARDCORE TANO*C is also heavily involved in the 2019 rhythm game WACCA, which is published by MARVELOUS!, with nearly its entire staff contributing to the game.
A song composed by various members of HARDCORE TANO*C, BATTLE NO.1, was planned to be in SOUND VOLTEX IV HEAVENLY HAVEN for the The 8th KONAMI Arcade Championship, under the artist name of TANO*C SOUND TEAM. KONAMI rejected the song (likely due to their poking fun (打趣) of the BEMANI Sound Team moniker, which was at its most extreme in the time of that event), and it later appeared instead in the HARDCORE TANO*C-produced game WACCA on August 1st, 2019. It also appeared in lowiro’s Arcaea as part of the Arcaea× HARDCORE TANO*C Collaboration (联动) and SEGA’s maimai でらっくす Splash. It was added to Muse Dash on February 5, 2021.
8. What’s the main idea of the first paragraph?
A. Some basic information about HARDCORE TANO*C.
B. The founder and members of HARDCORE TANO*
C. C. The relationship between Yoshikazu Nagai and HARDCORE TANO*C.
D. The relationship between BEMANI and HARDCORE TANO*C.
9. Among the following members, who has NOT shown up in this music label’s compilations?
A Camellia. B. Laur. C. Maozon. D. Akira Complex.
10. What can we know about the rhythm game WACCA?
A. It was produced by HARDCORE TANO*C last year.
B. None of MARVELOUS!’s employees is working for it.
C. The song BATTLE NO.1 was included in this game.
D. It had a collaboration with Muse Dash in Feb, 2021.
11. Arcaea has collaborated with both HARDCORE TANO*C and WACCA. As a player of Arcaea, what should you do?
A. Try playing WACCA if possible.
B. Spread bad comments about HARDCORE TANO*
C. Only cheer for the game or the artist you like.
D. Ask the official staff about the song selection petulantly.
【答案】8. A 9. B 10. C 11. A
【解析】

【8题详解】
主旨大意题。根据文章第一段“HARDCORE TANO*C is an independent Japanese music label that is known for releasing music compilations and albums focused on various forms of hardcore techno such as UK hardcore, happy hardcore, and gabber.

(HARDCORE TANO*C是一家独立的日本音乐厂牌,以发行各种形式的硬核技术音乐专辑而闻名,如英国硬核、快乐硬核和gabber。该品牌于2003年由Yoshikazu Nagai创立,最初名为硬核Tanoshii,但在2007年发行专辑《硬核综合症》后更名为硬核TANO*C。标签上有一家商店出售最著名的斗锦音乐发行,并以其多年来定期组织的频繁现场活动而闻名,包括一年一度的TANO*C巡演系列活动和与kors k的S2TB唱片公司合作举办的S2TBTANO*C活动。)”可知第一段主要介绍了HARDCORE TANOC,一个日本的独立音乐厂牌,专注于各种硬核电子音乐,如UK hardcore、happy hardcore和 gabber,包括它的创始人Yoshikazu Nagai,最初的名称、名字的变更以及它所发行的音乐合集、专辑、商店、现场活动和与BEMANI的紧密联系,故选A项。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“Many guest artists have appeared in HARDCORE TANO*C compilations, including Ryu☆, kors k, DJ Shimamura, m1dy, M-Project, JAKAZiD(as Joshka), Hommarju, Camellia, lapix, C-Show, Maozon, Nhato, Dustvoxx, and Akira Complex.

【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章最后一段中“A song composed by various members of HARDCORE TANO*C, BATTLE NO.1, was planned to be in SOUND VOLTEX IV HEAVENLY HAVEN for the The 8th KONAMI Arcade Championship, under the artist name of TANO*C SOUND TEAM. (由HARDCORE TANO*C的多位成员创作的歌曲《BATTLE NO.1》计划以TANO*C SOUND TEAM的名义在第8届KONAMI街机锦标赛的SOUND VOLTEX IV HEAVENLY HAVEN中出现。)”可知,曲BATTLE NO.1被收录在WACCA这个游戏中,故选C项。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中“HARDCORE TANO*C is also heavily involved in the 2019 rhythm game WACCA, which is published by MARVELOUS!, with nearly its entire staff contributing to the game. (HARDCORE TANO*C还积极参与了2019年由MARVELOUS!发行的节奏游戏WACCA,几乎所有员工都为游戏做出了贡献。)”以及最后一段“A song composed by various members of HARDCORE TANO*C, BATTLE NO.1, was planned to be in SOUND VOLTEX IV HEAVENLY HAVEN for the The 8th KONAMI Arcade Championship, under the artist name of TANO*C SOUND TEAM. (由HARDCORE TANO*C的多位成员创作的歌曲《BATTLE NO.1》计划以TANO*C SOUND TEAM的名义在第8届KONAMI街机锦标赛的SOUND VOLTEX IV HEAVENLY HAVEN中出现。)中可知, ARDCORE TANO*C与多款音乐游戏有合作,包括WACCA和Arcaea。这意味着作为一名Arcaea的玩家,如果你对这些合作感兴趣,最合理的选择是尝试玩WACCA。选项B、C和D的行为都是负面的或非建设性的,不利于促进游戏社区的和谐和积极氛围。故选A项。

Most managers can identify the major trends of the day. But in the course of conducting research in a number of industries and working directly with companies, we have discovered that managers often fail to recognize the less obvious but profound ways these trends are influencing consumers’ aspirations, attitudes, and behaviors. This is especially true of trends that managers view as peripheral to their core markets. Experts from Harvard Business School give some advice to managers.
One strategy, known as ‘infuse and augment’, is to design a product or service that keeps most of the attributes and functions of existing products in the category but adds others that address the needs and desires unleashed by a major trend. A case in point is the Poppy range of handbags, which the firm Coach created in response to the economic downturn of 2008. The Coach brand had been a symbol of wealth and luxury for nearly 70 years, and the most obvious reaction to the downturn would have been to lower prices. However, that would have risked cheapening the brand’s image. Instead, they initiated a consumer-research project which revealed that customers were eager to lift themselves and the country out of tough times. Using these insights, Coach launched the lower-priced Poppy handbags, which were in bright colors, and looked more youthful and playful than conventional Coach products. Creating the sub-brand allowed Coach to avoid an across-the-board price cut. In contrast to the many companies that responded to the recession by cutting prices, Coach saw the new consumer mindset as an opportunity for innovation and renewal.
A more radical strategy is ‘combine and transcend’. This involves combining aspects of the product’s existing value proposition with attributes addressing changes arising from a trend, to create a novel experience - one that may land the company in an entirely new market space. At first glance, spending resources to incorporate elements of a seemingly irrelevant trend into one’s core offerings sounds like it’s hardly worthwhile. But consider Nike’s move to integrate the digital revolution into its reputation for high-performance athletic footwear. In 2006, they teamed up with technology company Apple to launch Nike+, a digital sports kit comprising a sensor that attaches to the running shoe and a wireless receiver that connects to the user’s iPod. By combining Nike’s original value proposition for amateur athletes with one for digital consumers, the Nike+ sports kit and web interface moved the company from a focus on athletic apparel to a new plane of engagement with its customers.
Once you have gained perspective on how trend-related changes in consumer opinions and behaviors impact on your category, you can determine which of our innovation strategies to pursue. Trends -- technological, economic, environmental, social, or political — that affect how people perceive the world around them and shape what they expect from products and services present firms with unique opportunities for growth.
12 The underlined word “peripheral” in Paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to __________.
A. marginal B. important C. subject D. relevant
13. According to the second paragraph, Coach was anxious to ________.
A. follow what some of its competitors were doing
B. maintain its prices throughout its range
C. safeguard its reputation as a manufacturer of luxury goods
D. modify the entire look of its brand to suit the economic climate
14. What does the writer suggest about Nike’s strategy?
A. It was an extremely risky strategy at the time.
B. it was a strategy that only a major company could afford to follow.
C. It was the type of strategy that would not have been possible in the past.
D. It was the kind of strategy that might appear to have few obvious benefits.
15. The best title for the passage is probably ______.
A. Knowing more about your customers B. Making the most of trends
C. Eyes on strategies D. Following the advice
【答案】12. A 13. C 14. D 15. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲的是哈佛商学院的专家给管理者们提出的利用趋势的两种策略。
【12题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第一段的“we have discovered that managers often fail to recognize the less obvious but profound ways these trends are influencing consumers’ aspirations, attitudes, and behaviors(我们发现,管理者往往没有意识到这些趋势对消费者的愿望、态度和行为产生的不那么明显但深刻的影响)”可知,有些趋势已经被边缘化,划线词所在句子的意思是“对于那些被基金经理视为核心市场边缘的趋势来说,尤其如此”。由此可知,划线词peripheral的意思是“边缘的”,和marginal意思相近,故选A。
【13题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段的“The Coach brand had been a symbol of wealth and luxury for nearly 70 years, and the most obvious reaction to the downturn would have been to lower prices. However, that would have risked cheapening the brand’s image. Instead, they initiated a consumer-research project which revealed that customers were eager to lift themselves and the country out of tough times.(近70年来,蔻驰品牌一直是财富和奢侈的象征,对经济衰退最明显的反应应该是降价。然而,这可能会降低该品牌的形象。相反,他们发起了一个消费者研究项目,该项目显示,消费者渴望让自己和国家走出困境)”可知,Coach急于维护其作为奢侈品制造商的声誉。故选C。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“At first glance, spending resources to incorporate elements of a seemingly irrelevant trend into one’s core offerings sounds like it’s hardly worthwhile.(乍一看,花费资源将看似无关的趋势元素整合到自己的核心产品中,听起来几乎不值得)”可知,关于耐克的策略,作者暗示的是这种策略似乎没有什么明显的好处。故选D。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文,尤其是最后一段的“Once you have gained perspective on how trend-related changes in consumer opinions and behaviors impact on your category, you can determine which of our innovation strategies to pursue. Trends -- technological, economic, environmental, social, or political -- that affect how people perceive the world around them and shape what they expect from products and services present firms with unique opportunities for growth.(一旦你了解了消费者观点和行为的趋势变化对你的产品类别的影响,你就可以决定我们应该采取哪些创新策略。技术、经济、环境、社会或政治等趋势影响着人们对周围世界的认知,塑造了人们对产品和服务的期望,为企业提供了独特的增长机会)”可知,本文主要讲的是哈佛商学院的专家给管理者们提出的利用趋势的两种策略,因此最好的题目是B选项“Making the most of trends(充分利用趋势)”。故选B。

【详解】1.根据上文“Even a campsite near home can open up a new world of excitement.”(即使是在家附近的露营地,也能开启一个新的令人兴奋的世界。)及下文“ If you are looking forward to your camping trip this summer, but are worried about keeping your parents entertained, here are a few easy suggestions.”(如果你期待这个夏天的露营旅行,但又担心让你的父母开心,这里有一些简单的建议。)可知,设空处描述的为找到这样的露营地后,很难和家人进行快乐分享。选项G.“At times it is hard for you to share these new worlds with your family, though.”(有时候,你很难和家人分享这些新世界。)选项中share these new worlds与前文的a new world of excitement相呼应,符合语境。故选G项。
2. 结合设空处处于段首的位置可知,设空处为段落的主题句。根据下文“If you are camping in a mountainous area, try mountain biking.”(如果你在山区露营,试试山地自行车。)此处提到了在山区露营时,可以尝试山地自行车运动,讲了在野外露营的时候可以尝试新的户外运动。所以段首的主题句应该是和尝试新的方式露营。选项B.“Try a new outdoor sport together.”(一起尝试一项新的户外运动。)与下文内容一致,故选B项。
3.根据上文“ If your parents like to fish and your camping trip is during the fishing season, bring along your fishing equipment. You can go out in the canoe in the early morning to experience the best fish.”(如果你的父母喜欢钓鱼,而你的露营正好是在钓鱼季节,带上你的钓鱼装备。你可以在清晨乘独木舟出海,体验最好的钓鱼时刻。)讲到可以在清晨乘独木舟出去钓鱼,选项C.“Then later in the day you can cook your fish over the campfire.”(然后在一天的晚些时候,你可以在篝火上烤鱼。)符合语境。故选C。
4.由本段的主题句“When you go camping with your family, bring along some basic craft supplies, like paper, glue and scissors.”(当你和家人去野营的时候,带上一些基本的手工用品,比如纸,胶水和剪刀。要带着手工用品)及下文“With these treasures you can create craft projects to remember your camping trip.”(有了这些宝贝,你可以创作手工艺品,来纪念你的露营之旅。)可知,设空处其承上启下的作用,选项E.“While exploring nature, pick up anything interesting you might find.”(在探索大自然的时候,找到任何你可能发现的有趣的东西。)符合语境。故选E。
5.根据上文“If you and your parents share an interest in nature, find a good insect, bird, plant, animal or tree identification book.”(如果你和你的父母对大自然有共同的兴趣,找一本好的昆虫、鸟类、植物、动物或树木的识别本。)可知,接下来可说明带上这样的书的作用。选项F.“Try to recognize the different species that you come across with your family.”(尝试着认出你和你的家人遇到的不同物种。)说明了这本书可以帮助认识不同物种,符合语境。故选F。

47. 阅读下面材料, 根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段, 使之构成一篇完整的短文。
This…was turning out to be a strange meeting. Though the one in black doesn’t know it, the one white is beginning to share the darker girl’s lack of enthusiasm. Like a fire in a sudden chill wind, her hope flickers and wanes. Now she grows uncomfortable, anxious, and wary. A slight but unshakable atmosphere drifts between them, one that feels unmistakably off. To her, it seems as though their very meeting is something the world finds to be simply…“wrong”. The ever-present glass, now scattered unevenly throughout and above the broken grounds, reflects that strange feeling.
Ordinarily, these shards would flock to them without their bidding:“happiness”to the girl in white, “tragedies” to the girl in black. Right now, every piece of glass in the air stands still. Perhaps half a hundred mirrors are quietly
suspended around the girls, half-catching images of the empty place that surrounds them. When the girl in white tries to call out to them, they will not even waver. It unsettles her:happiness placed beside horror, equally glinting and equally motionless. The only piece that will follow her is the one she can hold—the one that set her free.
She stares hard at the shadow girl.“If we’re in this together, ”she begins, leaning forward, “then what do you think about staying together?We…We could help each other, and maybe…”
She stops. The other girl is staring into the empty, canvas-like sky with a blank and uninformative expression. She doesn’t seem to be listening, but in truth she has followed every word.
注意:
1.续写词数应为150左右;
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Paragraph 1:
“Maybe…”the dark girl echoes.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Paragraph 2:
And the remnant of the girl she used to be, the Tairitsu who had first woken up in this world, rebelled against the prospect of “the end”—against the idea of giving up.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】Paragraph 1:
“Maybe…” the dark girl echoes. Her voice trailing off into the silent void between them. She turns her gaze from the empty sky, her eyes meeting the girl in white’s with a mix of curiosity and wariness. “Maybe we could find a way out of this,” she says slowly, her tone more thoughtful than her initial disinterested stance. “There’s something strange about this place, about these shards of glass that seem to reflect our emotions. Maybe if we understand them better, we can use them to our advantage.” The dark girl pauses, as if searching for the right words. “I don’t know…I just feel like we’re missing something.”
Paragraph 2:
And the remnant of the girl she used to be, the Tairitsu who had first woken up in this world, rebelled against the prospect of “the end” – against the idea of giving up. She had always been a fighter, a seeker of knowledge and truth, and this strange encounter was no exception. “I don’t want to just accept this fate,” she said, her voice firm. “There’s always a way, always a choice. Let’s explore this place, these shards of glass, and see what secrets they hold. Maybe we can find a way to escape this strange world, together.” The girl in white nodded, her face brightening with a spark of determination. Together, they stepped forward, ready to face whatever challenges lay ahead.
【解析】

阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
A
Filming Locations You Can Actually Visit
Mars (The Martian)
When you search for a location to stand in for the surface of another world, The Wadi Rum Protected Area in far southern Jordan is a good place to start. With the impressive “vast and echoing and God-like” landscape, it served as the background of Matt Damon’s 18-month stay on the red planet in The Martian.
Jurassic Park
The Hawaiian islands were the locations for some of Jurassic Park’s most memorable scenes. Kauai provides the rough coastline and some of the most breathtaking features of the fictional Isla Nublar, while the rolling hills of Oahu’s Kualoa Ranch function as the background of the Gallimimus stampede (逃亡).
Hobbiton
Unlike the other locations in this list, the Shire is a wholly artificial set, built on a sheep farm on New Zealand ‘s North Island. Created for Peter Jackson’s big-screen adaptation of J.R.R. Tolkien’s The Lord of the Rings trilogy, Hobbiton began to draw curious fans shortly after the release of the first film in the series. In time, what began as a temporary location designed to host a three-month movie shoot has evolved into a Tolkienesque theme park with over 350,000 visitors annually.
King’s Landing
The HBO series Game of Thrones brings to life the many locations of George R.R. Martin’s fantasy world, but the conflict of sex, swords, and trickery reaches its peak in the capital of King’s Landing. The “real” capital of Westeros can be found in Dubrovnik, Croatia. The city’s 16th-century fortress walls overlook Blackwater Bay, while the parks, avenues, and alleys of the old city have witnessed the triumphs and tragedies of House Lannister.
1. Which of the four locations should you visit if you are a big fan of J.R.R. Tolkien?
A. Mars (The Martian). B. Jurassic Park. C. Hobbiton. D. King’s Landing.
2. What do the movie locations Mars and Jurassic Park have in common?
A. They are both on the coast. B. They demonstrate magnificent views.
C. They can represent another world. D. They are set for only one film.
3. What can visitors do in King’s Landing?
A. See ancient fortress walls. B. Play roles in Game of Thrones.
C. Visit George R.R. Martin. D. Experience the triumphs and tragedies.
B
I truly believe we all have a very special purpose in life, regardless of who we are or where we come from. After ten years of working for a major Wall Street bank, I wanted to do something challenging. So when I read a Merrill Lynch advertisement looking to hire more stockbrokers (股票经纪人), with great excitement, I made some phone calls and arranged to meet with one of its branch vice presidents. After this interview and interviews with twelve of his top stockbrokers, I eventually landed the job.
The first few months was a struggle. I lived on very little commission (佣金). Night after night, I left the office weary and exhausted, ready to give up, yet somehow returning the next morning to start anew day. Eventually, all the hard work paid off. In less than four years, I became one of the top sales people at my branch and increased personal sales by 1,700 percent. The success earned me a six-figure income, promotion and numerous sales awards.
Toward the end of my fourth year at Merrill Lynch, it hit me that something was missing. I thought long and hard about my goals. Then I was reminded of the time when I spoke to hundreds of people, while in college as a student leader, and years later, when I won a “Humorous Speech” championship. It dawned on me that every time I had a speaking engagement, I always came out of the experience with a wonderful, energetic, peaceful and magical feeling that was unmatched by anything else I did. I knew the extraordinary public-speaking skills I was blessed with could enable me to make a lasting difference and transform other people’s lives.
Then I took another daring risk, gave up everything and left the investment business for a more satisfying career as a motivational speaker. The beginning of my speaking journey was surprisingly similar to what I had first experienced at Merrill Lynch. However, nothing in the world comes close to the satisfying feeling I get when thousands of people tell me how much I have made a difference in their lives by motivating them to take risks and be the best they could be.

HARDCORE TANO*C is an independent Japanese music label that is known for releasing music compilations and albums focused on various forms of hardcore techno such as UK hardcore, happy hardcore, and gabber. The label was founded in 2003 by Yoshikazu Nagai (who at the time used the Akai Hito alias), originally under the name of Hardcore Tanoshii, but changed to its current name of HARDCORE TANO*C in 2007 after the release of the album HARDCORE SYNDROME. The label features a store which sells the most notable doujin (同人)music releases, and is well known for their frequent live events that are regularly organized throughout the years, including the annual TANO*C TOUR series of events and the S2TBTANO*C events done in collaboration with kors k’s S2TB Recording label.
From 2011 to 2018, HARDCORE TANO*C were very closely linked with BEMANI, most notably in beat mania IIDX and SOUND VOLTEX. Many of HARDCORE TANO*C’s members were frequent contributors to BEMANI,and KONAMI even collaborated with the label for a few of their own album releases. Their presence also expanded to various other music game titles.
Many guest artists have appeared in HARDCORE TANO*C compilations, including Ryu☆, kors k, DJ Shimamura, m1dy, M-Project, JAKAZiD (as Joshka), Hommarju, Camellia, lapix, C-Show, Maozon, Nhato, Dustvoxx, and Akira Complex.
By the end of 2017, HARDCORE TANO*C has started to produce major artist album releases, containing licensed works done for music games by the circle’s artists. From September 2018, a sub-label directed by DJ Myosuke named HARDCORE TANO*C HARD has been established, which focuses on harsher music. HARDCORE TANO*C is also heavily involved in the 2019 rhythm game WACCA, which is published by MARVELOUS!, with nearly its entire staff contributing to the game.
A song composed by various members of HARDCORE TANO*C, BATTLE NO.1, was planned to be in SOUND VOLTEX IV HEAVENLY HAVEN for the The 8th KONAMI Arcade Championship, under the artist name of TANO*C SOUND TEAM. KONAMI rejected the song (likely due to their poking fun (打趣) of the BEMANI Sound Team moniker, which was at its most extreme in the time of that event), and it later appeared instead in the HARDCORE TANO*C-produced game WACCA on August 1st, 2019. It also appeared in lowiro’s Arcaea as part of the Arcaea× HARDCORE TANO*C Collaboration (联动) and SEGA’s maimai でらっくす Splash. It was added to Muse Dash on February 5, 2021.

Most managers can identify the major trends of the day. But in the course of conducting research in a number of industries and working directly with companies, we have discovered that managers often fail to recognize the less obvious but profound ways these trends are influencing consumers’ aspirations, attitudes, and behaviors. This is especially true of trends that managers view as peripheral to their core markets. Experts from Harvard Business School give some advice to managers.
One strategy, known as ‘infuse and augment’, is to design a product or service that keeps most of the attributes and functions of existing products in the category but adds others that address the needs and desires unleashed by a major trend. A case in point is the Poppy range of handbags, which the firm Coach created in response to the economic downturn of 2008. The Coach brand had been a symbol of wealth and luxury for nearly 70 years, and the most obvious reaction to the downturn would have been to lower prices. However, that would have risked cheapening the brand’s image. Instead, they initiated a consumer-research project which revealed that customers were eager to lift themselves and the country out of tough times. Using these insights, Coach launched the lower-priced Poppy handbags, which were in bright colors, and looked more youthful and playful than conventional Coach products. Creating the sub-brand allowed Coach to avoid an across-the-board price cut. In contrast to the many companies that responded to the recession by cutting prices, Coach saw the new consumer mindset as an opportunity for innovation and renewal.
A more radical strategy is ‘combine and transcend’. This involves combining aspects of the product’s existing value proposition with attributes addressing changes arising from a trend, to create a novel experience - one that may land the company in an entirely new market space. At first glance, spending resources to incorporate elements of a seemingly irrelevant trend into one’s core offerings sounds like it’s hardly worthwhile. But consider Nike’s move to integrate the digital revolution into its reputation for high-performance athletic footwear. In 2006, they teamed up with technology company Apple to launch Nike+, a digital sports kit comprising a sensor that attaches to the running shoe and a wireless receiver that connects to the user’s iPod. By combining Nike’s original value proposition for amateur athletes with one for digital consumers, the Nike+ sports kit and web interface moved the company from a focus on athletic apparel to a new plane of engagement with its customers.
Once you have gained perspective on how trend-related changes in consumer opinions and behaviors impact on your category, you can determine which of our innovation strategies to pursue. Trends -- technological, economic, environmental, social, or political — that affect how people perceive the world around them and shape what they expect from products and services present firms with unique opportunities for growth.
12. The underlined word “peripheral” in Paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to __________.
A. marginal B. important C. subject D. relevant
13. According to the second paragraph, Coach was anxious to ________.
A. follow what some of its competitors were doing
B. maintain its prices throughout its range
C. safeguard its reputation as a manufacturer of luxury goods
D. modify the entire look of its brand to suit the economic climate
14 What does the writer suggest about Nike’s strategy?
A. It was an extremely risky strategy at the time.
B. it was a strategy that only a major company could afford to follow.
C. It was the type of strategy that would not have been possible in the past.
D. It was the kind of strategy that might appear to have few obvious benefits.
15. The best title for the passage is probably ______.
A. Knowing more about your customers B. Making the most of trends
C. Eyes on strategies D. Following the advice

47. 阅读下面材料, 根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段, 使之构成一篇完整的短文。
This…was turning out to be a strange meeting. Though the one in black doesn’t know it, the one white is beginning to share the darker girl’s lack of enthusiasm. Like a fire in a sudden chill wind, her hope flickers and wanes. Now she grows uncomfortable, anxious, and wary. A slight but unshakable atmosphere drifts between them, one that feels unmistakably off. To her, it seems as though their very meeting is something the world finds to be simply…“wrong”. The ever-present glass, now scattered unevenly throughout and above the broken grounds, reflects that strange feeling.
Ordinarily, these shards would flock to them without their bidding:“happiness”to the girl in white, “tragedies” to the girl in black. Right now, every piece of glass in the air stands still. Perhaps half a hundred mirrors are quietly
suspended around the girls, half-catching images of the empty place that surrounds them. When the girl in white tries to call out to them, they will not even waver. It unsettles her:happiness placed beside horror, equally glinting and equally motionless. The only piece that will follow her is the one she can hold—the one that set her free.
She stares hard at the shadow girl.“If we’re in this together, ”she begins, leaning forward, “then what do you think about staying together?We…We could help each other, and maybe…”
She stops. The other girl is staring into the empty, canvas-like sky with a blank and uninformative expression. She doesn’t seem to be listening, but in truth she has followed every word.
注意:
1.续写词数应为150左右;
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Paragraph 1:
“Maybe…”the dark girl echoes.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Paragraph 2:
And the remnant of the girl she used to be, the Tairitsu who had first woken up in this world, rebelled against the prospect of “the end”—against the idea of giving up.
