THE OLD CLARE HOTEL Located in the heart of Sydney’s Central Park district, The Old Clare Hotel, providing luxurious (豪华的) rooms and facilities, takes up a historic Chippendale pub and the nearby former beer factory site. This hotel has been lovingly restored by Peng Loh, a Singaporean businessman with a passion for redecorating heritage properties. 2. HILTON SYDNEY This is luxury accommodation right in the centre of Sydney, with world-class restaurants, one of the city’s best bars. Just upstairs sits Glass, the award-winning small restaurant by celebrity chef Luke Mangan. Downstairs lies The Marble Bar, a Sydney hotspot for decades and heritage listed due to its extensive use of marble, dating back to 1893. Rooms are simply fashionable. 3. THE LANGHAM Grand harborside luxury can be expected at The Langham, located in the Sydney centre. The hotel makes the most of its impressive harbour views with a marble-decorated hall that takes your breath away. Don’t forget to check out the art, with a collection of Australia’s most famous painter. Try their famous high tea menu, and be sure to check out the incredible underground swimming pool available to guests only. 4. FOUR SEASONS HOTEL SYDNEY Another luxury stay with amazing harbour views, the Four Seasons Hotel Sydney sits on the edge of Sydney’s historic Rocks district. A Deluxe Harbour Room will give you a breath-taking view, with dark wood and silk inside in calming colours. Downstairs is Grain, one of the best-known whisky bars in the city. 1.

B For eight years, Sophie created realistic-looking limbs (肢) for those who wanted to fit in. But she longed to work on more odd designs that would stand out. Then she met Pollyanna Hope, a young amputee (被截肢者). “She wanted something a little different on her leg: pictures of a cartoon she loved, Peppa Pig,” said Sophie, who is now based in London. So she designed a unique leg covered in tattoo-like images of Peppa and other pigs riding a bicycle and eating ice cream. Working with Hope made Sophie realize there was a potential market for limbs. Since then, Sophie founded the Alternative Limb Project (ALP) to make artistic limbs. Her work includes an arm wrapped in sculpted snakes and a leg that looks like porcelain (瓷器) covered in a painted flowery vine. She makes about six limbs per year, always including clients’ ideas so that they receive a personal piece they can celebrate rather than hide. Of course, a fancy-looking limb won't suit everyone. For Sophie, the basis is that each limb must satisfy a combination of comfort, beauty and functionality, and pushing too hard in one direction can weaken other areas. But for amputees who appreciate novelty, Sophie has some amazing ideas. “I’d really like to make a candy-dispenser leg with colorful candies inside it” she says. “Or a cuckoo-clock leg with a wooden bird that pops out every hour.” Her goal is to fashion a striking limb. “It’ll transform the limbs from an elephant in the room into a conversation piece.” 4. Why did Pollyanna Hope come to Sophie? A. She hoped to have a tailored limb. B. She intended to design a cartoon figure. C. She longed to expand the market for limbs. D. She expected to sell Sophie some odd ideas. 5. According to paragraph 3, ALP aims to ______. A. boost users’ confidence B. sharpen users’ creativity C. improve Sophie’s sculpture skills D. extend Sophie’s art business 6. What is the basis for Sophie's works? A. The novelty of the pattern tops the list. B. The balance of multi-needs comes first. C. Fashion is the best policy. D. Functionality is the key. 7. What can be inferred from the underlined sentence in the last paragraph? A. Sophie resolves to lead the fashion of limbs. B. Sophie plans to further transform artistic limbs. C. Amputees will feel at ease to talk about limbs. D. Amputees will have easy access to artistic limbs. C “The opposite of play isn’t work; it’s depression,” says play researcher Stuart Brown. “The adult-play shortage is becoming a public health crisis.” Play may appear insignificant, but recent studies indicate it may be as essential as the need for sleep. Playfulness helps some young animals learn to master their bodies and their environments — and once they do, most stop playing as adults. “Adult play promotes qualities that we humans could use more of,” says Jeff Harry, a play consultant. Unfortunately, social standards restrain (抑制) our urge to let loose. “Being a playful adult is really disapproved in our society,” he says. “You don’t want people to think that you’re childish.” “It hasn’t always been this way,” says Peter Gray, a play researcher at Boston University. When Gray reviewed descriptions of the last remaining hunter-gatherer tribes, he noticed that they were often described as “good-humored” and “joyful”. “What we would call work — hunting and gathering — was fun,” he says. “Generally speaking, we like to do the things that are necessary for our survival. Humans took one giant step away from fun when we started planting crops. Then we invented factories and lost sight of play entirely,” Gray adds. We may be able to reverse this situation, says Harry. As we fully make the transition to a knowledge-based economy, work and play are beginning to merge (合并) again. Some of today’s most successful companies, such as Google and Apple, were started by people tinkering (小修补) in their garages. “Play is all about looking at a tough world with creativity and optimism,” Brown says. He goes so far as to declare that “adult play is necessary for our survival as a species”. The next time I’m caught playing, I know exactly what I’ll say, “I am not wasting time, or acting immature. I’m playing for the benefit of all humanity. You’re welcome.” 8. Why does Stuart Brown consider adult play essential? A. It promotes creativity. B. It battles depression. C. It facilitates cooperation. D. It improves adaptivity. 9. What societal factor restrains adult play according to Jeff Harry? A. Fear of judgment from others. B. Lack of sufficient time for leisure. C. Cultural emphasis on personal values. D. Pressure from work-related responsibilities 10. Which statement will Peter Gray agree with according to Paragraph 3? A. Adult play contributes positively to work. B. Social attitudes toward play regularly shift. C. Humans initially found joy in survival activities. D. Industrialization closely connected work and play. 11. What is the purpose of the text? A. To stress the significance of adult play. B. To discuss the evolution of work and play. C. To advocate playfulness in modern businesses. D. To explore the impact of adult play on depression. D High in the Swiss Alps and the Arctic, scientists have discovered microbes (微生物) that can digest plastics — importantly, without the need to apply extra heat. Their findings, published in the journal Frontiers in Microbiology, could one day improve plastic recycling. It’s no secret that plastic pollution is still a big, global issue. Since its production exploded during and after World War II, humans have created more than 9.1 billion tons of plastic — and researchers estimate that less than one tenth of the resulting waste has been recycled. To make matters worse, the most common recycling option — when plastic is washed, processed and turned into new products — doesn’t actually reduce waste: The recycled materials are often of lower quality and might later end up in a landfill all the same. So, researchers are looking for solutions to the plastics problem that go beyond conventional recycling — and one process they’ve experimented with is breaking down plastics using microbes. But the known plastic-digesting microbes can only do so at warm temperatures above 85 degrees Fahrenheit. When done at an industrial scale, the amount of energy needed to generate that much heat makes the process give off more carbon —and cost more money. But the microbes found in the Arctic and Swiss Alps can function at cooler temperatures: They were able to break down biodegradable (可生物降解的) plastics at 59 degrees Fahrenheit. In the new study, co-author Joel Rüthi and his colleagues discovered that of the total 34 types of microbes examined,19 were successfully able to break down a form of plastic called polyester-polyurethane, and 17 could break down two types of biodegradable plastic mixtures. Unfortunately, the plastics that the microbes partially degraded represent a “really small amount of plastics in circulation,” said Gavin Lear, an environmental microbiologist, who was not involved in the study. Lear acknowledged that using natural microbes can provide a head start when it comes to designing a strategy for bio-recycling. If we move away from the conventional non-biodegradable materials, “and we start to use more of these biodegradable plastics, then it’s good that we know how to degrade them more quickly so they’re less of an environmental problem,” he concluded. 12. What do we know about the conventional recycling? A. It does not live up to expectations. B. It contributes to more waste. C. It is not as popular as before. D. It ensures new product quality. 13. Which best describes the method of using the microbes in the previous studies? A Impractical. B. Pioneering C. Reliable. D. Invaluable. 14. Why is the new study mentioned in paragraph 4? A. To prove the microbes have an obvious taste preference. B. To show the finding opens doors to a more efficient system. C. To clarify how the process of breaking down plastics works. D. To explain why bio-recycling is better than conventional recycling. 15. What do the underlined words “head start” in paragraph 5 mean? A. Reward. B. Criterion. C. Protection. D. Advantage. 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。选项中有两项为多余选项。 When fighting sugar dependence, avoiding added sugar in the diet is key, which sounds simple — right? It certainly does, but things become a bit more complicated once we introduce alternative sweeteners into the mix. ____16____ Many people think that if they replace the sugar in their diet with alternative sweeteners, they’ll be good to go, but this isn’t necessarily the case. Alternative sweeteners are everywhere. ____17____ For example, Stevia is a popular sugar substitute (代替者) because it is up to 200 times sweeter than sugar and provides fewer calories. Mon k fruit is another example that is free from calories, sweeter than table sugar, and gained from the juice of monk fruit. ____18____ Sugar alcohols provide fewer calories than regular sugar because they are not fully absorbed by the body. Now that we know some of the common types of alternative sweeteners, let’s take a deeper dive into the problem with them. Research in animals has shown that removing calories from foods that taste sweet can interrupt the ability to control energy intake. ____19____ If we consume high amounts of alternative sweeteners, it may heighten our preference for sweetness, resulting in the overuse of sugar-sweetened foods and drinks. The other interesting thing about alternative sweeteners is that our brains don’t recognize them as “fake (假的)” sugar. ____20____ Whenever a food tastes sweet, a message is sent to the brain that communicates we are tasting a sweet food — which can further feed into the sugar dependence cycle. So what do I recommend? In order to fully put a definite end to sugar dependence, reducing your intake of alternative sweeteners should be the goal. A. The taste profile of alternative sweeteners varies. B. We can’t forget about the ever-so-popular sugar alcohols. C. There are countless alternative sweeteners on the market. D. Our brain senses something sweet and thinks it is real sugar. E They may help reduce the calorie content of good-tasting foods and drinks. F. Artificial sweeteners may also cause one’s body to prefer sweeter-tasting foods. G. Alternative sweeteners are referred to as “low-calorie” or “no-calorie” sweeteners. 第三部分 语言运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节（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、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 On February 17th the Clermont County Animal Shelter, Ohio, shared a story.

The volunteer continued, “The ____31____ story serves as a reminder of the incredible impact that the Internet can have in bringing communities together, especially in times of ____32____.

He wouldn’t be off work yet. Maybe there is something we can do to help.” “It has nothing to do with us,”cried Mary. “You have your good clothes on,so let's not get any closer.” John didn't listen to Mary. He drove up and stopped. They were both shocked to see the whole house was on fire. A woman was crying in the yard, “The children! Get the children!” John seized her by the shoulder and shouted to her, “Don't cry! Tell me where the children are!” “In the basement(地下室)，”cried the woman,“down the hall and to the left.” John used water to get his clothes wet and put a wet towel on his head before rushing to the basement.

C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了Sophie为截肢者设计独特假肢的经历和想法，展示了她的设计理念和对截肢者需求的关注。 4题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段““She wanted something a little different on her leg: pictures of a cartoon she loved, Peppa Pig,” said Sophie, who is now based in London. So she designed a unique leg covered in tattoo-like images of Peppa and other pigs riding a bicycle and eating ice cream. (“她想在腿上画点不一样的东西：她喜欢的动画片小猪佩奇的照片，”现在住在伦敦的Sophie说。因此，她设计了一条独特的腿，上面有纹身图案，比如佩奇和其他猪骑自行车、吃冰淇淋。)”可知，Pollyanna Hope来找Sophie的原因是希望有一个定制的假肢。故选A。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第三段“Since then, Sophie founded the Alternative Limb Project (ALP) to make artistic limbs. Her work includes an arm wrapped in sculpted snakes and a leg that looks like porcelain (瓷器) covered in a painted flowery vine. She makes about six limbs per year, always including clients’ ideas so that they receive a personal piece they can celebrate rather than hide.(从那时起，Sophie创立了“ALP”，制作艺术肢体。她的作品包括一条包裹着雕刻蛇的手臂和一条看起来像瓷器的腿，上面覆盖着彩绘的花藤。她每年制作大约六只假肢，总是包括客户的想法，这样他们就可以得到一件可以庆祝而不是隐藏的个人作品。)”可知，Sophie创立“ALP”是为了让客户有一件可以庆祝而不是隐藏的假肢，也就是为了提升用户的自信心。故选A。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第四段“For Sophie, the basis is that each limb must satisfy a combination of comfort, beauty and functionality, and pushing too hard in one direction can weaken other areas. But for amputees who appreciate novelty, Sophie has some amazing ideas.(对Sophie来说，基础是每个肢体都必须满足舒适、美观和功能的结合，在一个方向上用力过猛会削弱其他领域。但对于喜欢新奇事物的截肢者来说，Sophie有一些惊人的想法。)”可知，对Sophie来说，作品的基础是每个肢体都必须满足舒适、美观和功能的结合。故选B。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。在英文中“an elephant in the room”比喻一些非常显而易见的，可是却一直被忽略的棘手问题。由此可知，这句话的意思指的是“将假肢的事变成日常话题”，也就是说Sophie希望截肢者能够轻松地谈论假肢。故选C。 C “The opposite of play isn’t work; it’s depression,” says play researcher Stuart Brown. “The adult-play shortage is becoming a public health crisis.” Play may appear insignificant, but recent studies indicate it may be as essential as the need for sleep. Playfulness helps some young animals learn to master their bodies and their environments — and once they do, most stop playing as adults. “Adult play promotes qualities that we humans could use more of,” says Jeff Harry, a play consultant. Unfortunately, social standards restrain (抑制) our urge to let loose. “Being a playful adult is really disapproved in our society,” he says. “You don’t want people to think that you’re childish.” “It hasn’t always been this way,” says Peter Gray, a play researcher at Boston University. When Gray reviewed descriptions of the last remaining hunter-gatherer tribes, he noticed that they were often described as “good-humored” and “joyful”. “What we would call work — hunting and gathering — was fun,” he says. “Generally speaking, we like to do the things that are necessary for our survival. Humans took one giant step away from fun when we started planting crops. Then we invented factories and lost sight of play entirely,” Gray adds. We may be able to reverse this situation, says Harry. As we fully make the transition to a knowledge-based economy, work and play are beginning to merge (合并) again. Some of today’s most successful companies, such as Google and Apple, were started by people tinkering (小修补) in their garages. “Play is all about looking at a tough world with creativity and optimism,” Brown says. He goes so far as to declare that “adult play is necessary for our survival as a species”. The next time I’m caught playing, I know exactly what I’ll say, “I am not wasting time, or acting immature. I’m playing for the benefit of all humanity. You’re welcome.” 8. Why does Stuart Brown consider adult play essential? A. It promotes creativity. B. It battles depression. C. It facilitates cooperation. D. It improves adaptivity. 9. What societal factor restrains adult play according to Jeff Harry? A. Fear of judgment from others. B. Lack of sufficient time for leisure. C. Cultural emphasis on personal values. D. Pressure from work-related responsibilities 10. Which statement will Peter Gray agree with according to Paragraph 3? A. Adult play contributes positively to work. B. Social attitudes toward play regularly shift. C. Humans initially found joy in survival activities. D. Industrialization closely connected work and play. 11. What is the purpose of the text? A. To stress the significance of adult play. B. To discuss the evolution of work and play. C. To advocate playfulness in modern businesses. D. To explore the impact of adult play on depression. 【答案】8. B 9. A 10. C 11. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了成人玩游戏对个体和社会的重要性，呼吁社会重新认识并重视成人玩游戏的作用。 8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中Stuart Brown所说的话“The opposite of play isn’t work; it’s depression (游戏的反义词不是工作，而是抑郁)”和“The adult-play shortage is becoming a public health crisis. (成人游戏的短缺正成为一场公共健康危机)”可知，Stuart Brown认为成人玩游戏重要的原因在于它可以对抗抑郁。故选B项。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中Jeff Harry所说的话“Being a playful adult is really disapproved in our society (在我们的社会里，做一个爱玩的成年人是不被认可的)”和“You don’t want people to think that you’re childish. (你不想让别人觉得你幼稚)”可知，Jeff Harry认为成人害怕被别人评判的心理导致他们限制自己进行游戏。故选A项。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中“When Gray reviewed descriptions of the last remaining hunter-gatherer tribes, he noticed that they were often described as “good-humored” and “joyful”. “What we would call work — hunting and gathering — was fun,” he says. (当Gray回顾对最后幸存的狩猎采集部落的描述时，他注意到他们经常被描述为“幽默”和“快乐”。“我们所谓的工作——狩猎和采集——很有趣，”他说)”和“Generally speaking, we like to do the things that are necessary for our survival. (一般来说，我们喜欢做生存所必需的事情)”可知，Peter Gray发现这些部落在狩猎和采集这样的生存活动中得到了乐趣，变得幽默而快乐。由此推知，他会赞同“人类最初在生存活动中找到快乐”的观点。故选C项。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。通读全文，并结合第一段中“Play may appear insignificant, but recent studies indicate it may be as essential as the need for sleep. (玩耍可能看起来微不足道，但最近的研究表明，它可能和睡眠一样重要)”可知，文章主要讨论了成人玩游戏对个体和社会的重要性。研究表明，游戏不仅可以帮助小动物学会控制自己和环境，还可以帮助成人对抗抑郁。然而，社会往往并不认可成人玩游戏的行为。但实际上，狩猎采集部落中的工作实际上是有趣而快乐的。由此可知，文章的写作目的在于强调成人玩游戏的重要性。故选A项。 D High in the Swiss Alps and the Arctic, scientists have discovered microbes (微生物) that can digest plastics — importantly, without the need to apply extra heat. Their findings, published in the journal Frontiers in Microbiology, could one day improve plastic recycling. It’s no secret that plastic pollution is still a big global issue. Since its production exploded during and after World War II, humans have created more than 9.1 billion tons of plastic — and researchers estimate that less than one tenth of the resulting waste has been recycled. To make matters worse, the most common recycling option — when plastic is washed, processed and turned into new products — doesn’t actually reduce waste: The recycled materials are often of lower quality and might later end up in a landfill all the same. So, researchers are looking for solutions to the plastics problem that go beyond conventional recycling — and one process they’ve experimented with is breaking down plastics using microbes. But the known plastic-digesting microbes can only do so at warm temperatures above 85 degrees Fahrenheit. When done at an industrial scale, the amount of energy needed to generate that much heat makes the process give off more carbon —and cost more money. But the microbes found in the Arctic and Swiss Alps can function at cooler temperatures: They were able to break down biodegradable (可生物降解的) plastics at 59 degrees Fahrenheit. In the new study, co-author Joel Rüthi and his colleagues discovered that of the total 34 types of microbes examined,19 were successfully able to break down a form of plastic called polyester-polyurethane, and 17 could break down two types of biodegradable plastic mixtures. Unfortunately, the plastics that the microbes partially degraded represent a “really small amount of plastics in circulation,” said Gavin Lear, an environmental microbiologist, who was not involved in the study. Lear acknowledged that using natural microbes can provide a head start when it comes to designing a strategy for bio-recycling. If we move away from the conventional non-biodegradable materials, “and we start to use more of these biodegradable plastics, then it’s good that we know how to degrade them more quickly so they’re less of an environmental problem,” he concluded. 12. What do we know about the conventional recycling? A. It does not live up to expectations. B. It contributes to more waste. C. It is not as popular as before. D. It ensures new product quality. 13. Which best describes the method of using the microbes in the previous studies? A. Impractical. B. Pioneering C. Reliable. D. Invaluable. 14. Why is the new study mentioned in paragraph 4? A. To prove the microbes have an obvious taste preference. B. To show the finding opens doors to a more efficient system. C. To clarify how the process of breaking down plastics works. D. To explain why bio-recycling is better than conventional recycling. 15. What do the underlined words “head start” in paragraph 5 mean? A. Reward. B. Criterion. C. Protection. D. Advantage. 【答案】12. A 13. A 14. B 15. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。在瑞士阿尔卑斯山和北极的高处，科学家们发现了可以消化塑料的微生物——重要的是，不需要额外的加热。他们的研究结果发表在《微生物学前沿》杂志上，有朝一日可能会改善塑料回收。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“To make matters worse, the most common recycling option — when plastic is washed, processed and turned into new products — doesn’t actually reduce waste: The recycled materials are often of lower quality and might later end up in a landfill all the same.(更糟糕的是，最常见的回收选择——将塑料清洗、加工并变成新产品——实际上并没有减少浪费：回收的材料通常质量较低，最终可能还是会被扔进垃圾填埋场)”可知，传统的回收没有达到人们的期望。故选A。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“So, researchers are looking for solutions to the plastics problem that go beyond conventional recycling — and one process they’ve experimented with is breaking down plastics using microbes. But the known plastic-digesting microbes can only do so at warm temperatures above 85 degrees Fahrenheit. When done at an industrial scale, the amount of energy needed to generate that much heat makes the process give off more carbon —and cost more money.(因此，研究人员正在寻找超越传统回收的塑料问题的解决方案，他们已经试验了一种方法，即用微生物分解塑料。但已知的塑料消化微生物只能在85华氏度以上的温暖温度下进行。当在工业规模上进行时，产生这么多热量所需的能量会使该过程释放更多的碳，并花费更多的钱)”可推知，之前研究中使用微生物的方法是不切实际的。故选A。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“But the microbes found in the Arctic and Swiss Alps can function at cooler temperatures: They were able to break down biodegradable (可生物降解的) plastics at 59 degrees Fahrenheit. In the new study, co-author Joel Rüthi and his colleagues discovered that of the total 34 types of microbes examined,19 were successfully able to break down a form of plastic called polyester-polyurethane, and 17 could break down two types of biodegradable plastic mixtures.(但在北极和瑞士阿尔卑斯山发现的微生物可以在更低的温度下工作：它们能够在59华氏度的温度下分解可生物降解的塑料。在这项新研究中，合著者Joel Rüthi和他的同事们发现，在总共34种被检测的微生物中，19种能够成功地分解一种叫做聚酯聚氨酯的塑料，17种可以分解两种可生物降解的塑料混合物)”可知，新发现检测到微生物可以分解更多的塑料，结合第三段提到之前研究中使用微生物的方法是不切实际的，可推知，第4段提到了这项新研究是为了表明这一发现为更有效的系统打开了大门。故选B。 【15题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线词后文“If we move away from the conventional non-biodegradable materials, “and we start to use more of these biodegradable plastics, then it’s good that we know how to degrade them more quickly so they’re less of an environmental problem,” he concluded.(如果我们不再使用传统的不可生物降解的材料，“我们开始更多地使用这些可生物降解的塑料，那么我们知道如何更快地降解它们，从而减少环境问题，这是件好事，”他总结道)”可知，Gavin Lear提到如果我们不再使用传统的不可生物降解的材料，我们开始更多地使用这些可生物降解的塑料，那么我们知道如何更快地降解它们，从而减少环境问题，由此说明使用天然微生物具有良好的优势。故划线词意思是“优势”。故选D。 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。选项中有两项为多余选项。 When fighting sugar dependence, avoiding added sugar in the diet is key, which sounds simple — right? It certainly does, but things become a bit more complicated once we introduce alternative sweeteners into the mix. ____16____ Many people think that if they replace the sugar in their diet with alternative sweeteners, they’ll be good to go, but this isn’t necessarily the case. Alternative sweeteners are everywhere. ____17____ For example, Stevia is a popular sugar substitute (代替者) because it is up to 200 times sweeter than sugar and provides fewer calories. Mon k fruit is another example that is free from calories, sweeter than table sugar, and gained from the juice of monk fruit. ____18____ Sugar alcohols provide fewer calories than regular sugar because they are not fully absorbed by the body. Now that we know some of the common types of alternative sweeteners, let’s take a deeper dive into the problem with them. Research in animals has shown that removing calories from foods that taste sweet can interrupt the ability to control energy intake. ____19____ If we consume high amounts of alternative sweeteners, it may heighten our preference for sweetness, resulting in the overuse of sugar-sweetened foods and drinks. The other interesting thing about alternative sweeteners is that our brains don’t recognize them as “fake (假的)” sugar. ____20____ Whenever a food tastes sweet, a message is sent to the brain that communicates we are tasting a sweet food — which can further feed into the sugar dependence cycle. So what do I recommend? In order to fully put a definite end to sugar dependence, reducing your intake of alternative sweeteners should be the goal. A. The taste profile of alternative sweeteners varies. B. We can’t forget about the ever-so-popular sugar alcohols. C. There are countless alternative sweeteners on the market. D. Our brain senses something sweet and thinks it is real sugar. E. They may help reduce the calorie content of good-tasting foods and drinks. F. Artificial sweeteners may also cause one’s body to prefer sweeter-tasting foods. G. Alternative sweeteners are referred to as “low-calorie” or “no-calorie” sweeteners. 【答案】16. G 17. C 18. B 19. F 20. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文，主要讲述了在对抗糖依赖时，避免在饮食中添加糖以及替代甜味剂。 【16题详解】 根据下文“Many people think that if they replace the sugar in their diet with alternative sweeteners, they’ll be good to go, but this isn’t necessarily the case. (许多人认为，如果他们用替代甜味剂代替饮食中的糖，那就很好了，但事实并非如此。)”可知此处讲述了有关替代甜味剂的内容，许多人认为如果他们用替代甜味剂代替饮食中的糖，就很好，所以选项G“替代甜味剂被称为“低热量”或“无热量”甜味剂。”符合语境，故选G。 【17题详解】 根据上文“Alterative sweeteners are everywhere.(替代甜味剂无处不在。)”结合下文的两个例子“Stevia”和“Monk fruit”可知此处说明市场上有很多替代甜味剂，所以选项C“市场上有无数的替代甜味剂。”符合语境，故选C。 【18题详解】 根据上文的两个例子“Stevia”和“Monk fruit”以及下文“Sugar alcohols provide fewer calories than regular sugar because they are not fully absorbed by the body. (糖醇提供的卡路里比普通糖少，因为它们没有被身体完全吸收。)”可知又给出了一个例子“Sugar alcohols”，所以选项B“我们不能忘记一直很受欢迎的糖醇。”符合语境，故选B。 【19题详解】 根据下文“If we consume high amounts of alternative sweeteners, it may heighten our preference for sweetness, resulting in the overuse of sugar-sweetened foods and drinks.(如果我们摄入大量的替代甜味剂，它可能会增强我们对甜味的偏好，导致过度使用含糖的食物和饮料。)”可知此处说明人造甜味剂对人体的影响，让你更喜欢甜的食物，摄入更多的糖，所以选项F“人造甜味剂也可能使人的身体更喜欢味道更甜的食物。”符合语境，故选F。 【20题详解】 根据上文“The other interesting thing about alternative sweeteners is that our brains don’t recognize them as “fake (假的)” sugar. (替代甜味剂的另一个有趣之处在于，我们的大脑不会将其识别为“假”糖。)”可知大脑会觉得替代甜味剂是真正的糖，所以选项D“我们的大脑感觉到甜的东西，认为那是真正的糖。”符合语境，故选D。 第三部分 语言运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节（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、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 On February 17th, the Clermont County Animal Shelter, Ohio, shared a story.

One day, John and Mary decided to go on a trip to another city, so they found a kind woman to look after the children and left. Several days later, they returned home a little earlier than they had planned. As they drove back to their hometown, John and Mary noticed smoke and went to see what it was. They found a house was on fire.“Oh,well, it isn't our house. Let's go home,”Mary said. But John drove closer and screamed in surprise，“That's Jordan's home. He works in a factory. He wouldn’t be off work yet. Maybe there is something we can do to help.” “It has nothing to do with us,”cried Mary. “You have your good clothes on,so let's not get any closer.” John didn't listen to Mary. He drove up and stopped. They were both shocked to see the whole house was on fire. A woman was crying in the yard, “The children! Get the children!” John seized her by the shoulder and shouted to her, “Don't cry! Tell me where the children are!” “In the basement(地下室)，”cried the woman,“down the hall and to the left.” John used water to get his clothes wet and put a wet towel on his head before rushing to the basement. The house was full of smoke and fire, and it was very difficult for him to find the children. But he made it. He held one under each arm. As he left，he could hear some more crying. He took the two kids out of the house and into the fresh air，and then asked the women how many more children were still down there. 注意：1.所续写短文的词数应为150左右； 2.续写部分分为两段，每段的开头语已为你写好，请按照如下格式在答题卡相应位置作答； Paragraph 1: Thewoman told him there were two more. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: As he took them out,he felt something strangely familiar about the little bodies. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】Paragraph 1: The woman told him there were two more. Mary grasped his arm and screamed, "John! Don't go back in! It's dangerous. The house could fall down at a second!" He didn't listen to her and went back into the burning house. He went back to the basement by feeling his way down the smoke and into the room. It seemed like a century before he found the two children. They were all coughing. So he tried to walk closer to the ground to get the cleaner air there. Paragraph 2: As he took them out, he felt something strangely familiar about the little bodies. As he climbed up the endless steps, the feeling became much stronger. Considering the emergency, he set aside his thoughts. Fortunately, they finally came out into the fresh air. To his great surprise, the children he had just rescued were his own kids. Knowing what had happened, Mary ran to them in tears and the whole family hugged together. It turned out later that the baby-sitter had left them at this house while she was shopping. Fortunately, when John saved others, he also saved his own children . 【解析】 【分析】本文以火中救人为线索展开，讲述了男主人翁约翰从火中救出了四个孩子的经过。当约翰和妻子玛丽旅游回来的路上发现邻居乔丹家的房子失火，约翰要去救火，妻子玛丽害怕危险不让约翰去救，约翰没有听她的话。约翰幸亏这样做了，因为最后救上来的两个孩子竟是约翰和玛丽自己的孩子。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“那位女士告诉他还有两个。”可知，第一段可描写玛丽坚决不让约翰再去冒险救人，而约翰义无反顾的去救了以及救人的艰难过程。 ②由第二段首句内容“当他把他们带出来的时候，他对这些小身体有一种奇怪的熟感。”可知，第二段可描写约翰救出孩子后竟然发现救出的竟然是他们自己的孩子以及了解了孩子在这所房子里的原因。 2.续写线索：阻止救人——回到地下室——找到孩子——带出地下室——发现是自己的孩子——了解原因——感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①.走进：go back in / go back into ②.救：rescue/save ③.感觉：seem like/feel 情绪类 ①.幸运地：fortunately/ luckily 【点睛】[高分句型1].
