Hunger has many different causes, according to Dr. Monique Tello, from Harvard Medical School. The first cause may be medical problems. “If a person always feels hungry and can’t put on weight or even loses weight, he should go to the hospital. For people with Type 1 diabetes (糖尿病), their body isn’t able to process (分解) sugar. They eat a lot, but still lose weight and they feel terrible.” Tello said. If it isn’t a medical cause, the problem could be in the head. It’s reasonable (合理的) to be hungry every three to five hours. However, you may eat often and a lot after watching food ads on TV or social media. Also, the more you eat, the larger your stomach gets and the more you want to eat. A person’s state (状态) of mind can play a role, too. Research has shown that stress and worry can increase levels of ghrelin (饥饿激素). Another reason may be the lifestyle. Sometimes, the reason why a person is always hungry is that he eats too little, exercises too much, or both. So, what are the solutions (解决方法)? First, reduce your time on watching food advertisements. In addition, say no to food if you’re not really hungry. Finally, change your diet by eating more food high in fiber (纤维), protein (蛋白质) and healthy fat. 5. According to Tello, what should you do if you are always hungry and getting thinner? A. Eat more food. B. Change your diet. C. See a doctor. D. Do some Exercise. 6. What can you learn from Paragraph 3? A. You don’t feel like eating when you’re worried. B. You will probably eat more when you feel stressed. C. The smaller your stomach is the healthier you will be. D. The more food advertisements you watch, the less you eat. 7. How many solutions does the writer give in Paragraph 5? A. Two. B. Three. C. Four. D. Five. 8. What’s the structure of the article? (P＝Paragraph) A. B. C. D. 【答案】5. C 6. B 7. B 8. A 【解析】 【导语】本文介绍了饥饿的原因及解决的方法。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“If a person always feels hungry and can’t put on weight or even loses weight, he should go to the hospital.”可知，如果你总是饿，而且越来越瘦，你该去看医生。故选C。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“Research has shown that stress and worry can increase levels of ghrelin (饥饿激素).”可知，研究表明，压力和担忧会增加胃饥饿素的水平，你可能会吃得更多。故选B。 【7题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段“So, what are the solutions (解决方法)? First, reduce your time on watching food advertisements. In addition, say no to food if you’re not really hungry. Finally, change your diet by eating more food high in fiber (纤维), protein (蛋白质) and healthy fat.”可知，作者给出了3种解决方案。故选B。 【8题详解】 篇章结构题。文中第一段引出饥饿有很多不同的原因；第二、三、四段具体讲述了饥饿的原因；第五段介绍了饥饿的解决方法，所以文章的结构为A所示。故选A。 C When you get really sleepy, you may nod off (打瞌睡) for a short time. However, chinstrap penguins (帽带企鹅) in the South Pole take nodding off to a whole new level, because they do it more than 10, 000 times a day! A group of scientists studied 14 chinstrap penguins in the South Pole. They put electrodes (电极) on the penguins’ heads and necks to see their brain activities. The scientists also followed them by GPS and watched them for 10 days. Finally, the scientists found that the penguins’ longest sleep time is 34 seconds (秒). On average (基本上), the penguins sleep 4 seconds at a time. Sometimes, only half of their brains would sleep, while the other half stayed awake. But in one day, they sleep for more than 11 hours, so they get enough rest. The penguins sleep like this because they need to protect their eggs and babies. If they sleep too long, the babies may get hurt by seabirds and other penguins. Also, their home is usually noisy and crowded. So the parent penguins just have very short sleeps to stay alert (警觉的). 9. What is Paragraph 2 mainly about? A. Why scientists put electrodes on the penguins. B. What scientists found about the penguins’ sleeping. C. How scientists studied the penguins’ sleeping habits. D. When scientists studied the penguins’ brain activities. 10. What does the underlined word “they” in the last paragraph refer to? A. Seabirds. B. Scientists. C. The baby penguins. D. The parent penguins. 11. What makes the penguins have short sleep habits? ①The flying of seabirds. ②Their noisy and crowded homes. ③The cold weather in the South Pole. ④The need to protect their eggs and babies. A. ①② B. ②③ C. ②④ D. ③④ 12. What is the best title for the passage? A. Chinstrap Penguins’ Busy Lives B. Differences in Rest Between Animals C. Chinstrap Penguins’ Favorite Activities D. Chinstrap Penguins’ Special Sleeping Habits 【答案】9. C 10. D 11. C 12. D 【解析】 【导语】本文主要介绍了帽带企鹅特殊睡眠习惯及原因。 【9题详解】 主旨大意题。根据“A group of scientists studied 14 chinstrap penguins in the South Pole…The scientists also followed them by GPS and watched them for 10 days.”可知本段主要介绍了科学家研究帽带企鹅睡眠习惯的方法。故选C。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据“The penguins sleep like this because they need to protect their eggs and babies. If they sleep too long, the babies may get hurt by seabirds and other penguins.”可推知此处的“they”指代的是企鹅父母，它们这样睡觉是为了保护它们的宝宝。故选D。 【11题详解】 细节理解题。根据“The penguins sleep like this because they need to protect their eggs and babies…Also, their home is usually noisy and crowded.”可知帽带企鹅有短睡眠习惯的原因有：它们需要保护它们的蛋和宝宝；它们的家又吵又拥挤。故选C。 【12题详解】 最佳标题题。通读全文可知本文主要介绍了帽带企鹅特殊的睡眠习惯及原因，因此“Chinstrap Penguins’ Special Sleeping Habits”可作为标题。故选D。 D A video went popular on August 15, 2023. In the video, there was a group of tourists traveling in the desert in Turpan, Northwest China’s Xinjiang Uygur autonomous region. Suddenly they found their hair standing on end, which scared everyone on the scene (在场的). According to the tourists, their hair returned to normal situation after they drove 3 kilometers down the road. Many people on the Internet said the phenomenon (现象) is a sign of a coming storm. They suggested that the group should have run away as soon as possible. However, Feng Minxue, an expert, said that running away is not the best choice. According to Feng, if a person’s hair is dry and there is a little static electricity (静电), there is still time to leave. However, if the hair has already stood on end, running can be fatal because it may put the person in danger. The correct way is to lower one’s body height. If they can’t leave the mountain top in time, they should quickly crouch (蹲) down in that place, bring their feet as close together as possible and use their hands to protect their head, avoiding touching the ground. Wu Xueke, a professor, thinks that the clouds with electricity above the head of the tourists caused the situation. The electric field distortion (电场畸变) above their head became strong, and then it caused static electricity in their hair. In some serious cases, the person might be hit by lightning. Therefore, if people meet with such a situation outdoors, they should keep a clear mind and take action properly. 13. What did many people on the Internet advise the tourists to do? A. Stand still. B. Lie down quietly. C. Run away immediately (立即). D. Record the sign carefully. 14. What does the underlined word “fatal” in Paragraph 3 mean? A. Accidental. B. Dangerous. C. Sudden. D. Safe. 15. According to Feng, what should the tourists do? ①Keep their body down. ②Bring their feet close together. ③Protect their head. ④Touch the ground. A. ①②③ B. ①②④ C. ①③④ D. ②③④ 16. What can we know from the last paragraph? A. People outdoors should try to avoid dark clouds. B. The clouds without electricity above the head of the tourists caused the situation. C. People are easily hit by lightning in the desert. D. Strong electric field distortion can cause static electricity in hair. 【答案】13. C 14. B 15. A 16. D 【解析】 【导语】本文主要讲述一则在旅行中头发竖了起来的视频爆火，以及背后的原因和躲避方式。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据“They suggested that the group should have run away as soon as possible”可知，他们建议这群人应该尽快逃走。故选C。 【14题详解】 词义猜测题。根据“running can be fatal because it may put the person in danger”可知，跑开可能是致命的，因为它可能使人处于危险之中。fatal和dangerous意思相近，故选B。 【15题详解】 细节理解题。根据“If they can’t leave the mountain top in time, they should quickly crouch (蹲) down in that place, bring their feet as close together as possible and use their hands to protect their head, avoiding touching the ground.”可知，正确的方式是降低身体高度。如果他们不能及时离开山顶，他们应该迅速蹲下在那个地方，把他们的脚尽可能靠近，用手保护他们的头，避免接触地面。故①②③正确。故选A。 【16题详解】 推理判断题。根据“The electric field distortion (电场畸变) above their head became strong, and then it caused static electricity in their hair”可知，强电场畸变会使头发产生静电。故选D。 E 阅读短文，从所给的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，其中有一个多余的选项。 During the Spring Festival of 2024, many Chinese parents bought their children bright red sets of Chinese New Year’s clothing.

I tried but was refused again. “Everything happens for the best,” Mom told me. Dad offered me a car to look for a job. I tried WOC Radio in Davenport, Iowa. The program director, Peter MacArthur, told me that they had already hired an announcer. As I left his office, my frustration (挫折感) boiled over. “How can I become a sports announcer if I can’t get a job in a radio station?” I asked myself aloud. While I was waiting for the lift, I heard someone calling. It was Peter Mac Arthur. “What did you mean? Do you know anything about football?” Then he asked me to have a try. Pleased with my performance, he offered me a chance to work there. On my way home, I thought of my mother’s words, “If you continue, one day something good will happen.

The first cause may be medical problems. “If a person always feels hungry and can’t put on weight or even loses weight, he should go to the hospital. For people with Type 1 diabetes (糖尿病), their body isn’t able to process (分解) sugar. They eat a lot, but still lose weight and they feel terrible.” Tello said. If it isn’t a medical cause, the problem could be in the head. It’s reasonable (合理的) to be hungry every three to five hours. However, you may eat often and a lot after watching food ads on TV or social media. Also, the more you eat, the larger your stomach gets and the more you want to eat. A person’s state (状态) of mind can play a role, too. Research has shown that stress and worry can increase levels of ghrelin (饥饿激素). Another reason may be the lifestyle. Sometimes, the reason why a person is always hungry is that he eats too little, exercises too much, or both. So, what are the solutions (解决方法)? First, reduce your time on watching food advertisements. In addition, say no to food if you’re not really hungry. Finally, change your diet by eating more food high in fiber (纤维), protein (蛋白质) and healthy fat. 5. According to Tello, what should you do if you are always hungry and getting thinner? A. Eat more food. B. Change your diet. C. See a doctor. D. Do some Exercise. 6. What can you learn from Paragraph 3? A. You don’t feel like eating when you’re worried. B. You will probably eat more when you feel stressed. C. The smaller your stomach is, the healthier you will be. D. The more food advertisements you watch, the less you eat. 7. How many solutions does the writer give in Paragraph 5? A Two. B. Three. C. Four. D. Five. 8. What’s the structure of the article? (P＝Paragraph) A. B. C. D. C When you get really sleepy, you may nod off (打瞌睡) for a short time. However, chinstrap penguins (帽带企鹅) in the South Pole take nodding off to a whole new level, because they do it more than 10, 000 times a day! A group of scientists studied 14 chinstrap penguins in the South Pole. They put electrodes (电极) on the penguins’ heads and necks to see their brain activities. The scientists also followed them by GPS and watched them for 10 days. Finally, the scientists found that the penguins’ longest sleep time is 34 seconds (秒). On average (基本上), the penguins sleep 4 seconds at a time. Sometimes, only half of their brains would sleep, while the other half stayed awake. But in one day, they sleep for more than 11 hours, so they get enough rest. The penguins sleep like this because they need to protect their eggs and babies. If they sleep too long, the babies may get hurt by seabirds and other penguins. Also, their home is usually noisy and crowded. So the parent penguins just have very short sleeps to stay alert (警觉的). 9. What is Paragraph 2 mainly about? A. Why scientists put electrodes on the penguins. B. What scientists found about the penguins’ sleeping. C. How scientists studied the penguins’ sleeping habits. D. When scientists studied the penguins’ brain activities. 10. What does the underlined word “they” in the last paragraph refer to? A. Seabirds. B. Scientists. C. The baby penguins. D. The parent penguins. 11. What makes the penguins have short sleep habits? ①The flying of seabirds. ②Their noisy and crowded homes. ③The cold weather in the South Pole. ④The need to protect their eggs and babies. A. ①② B. ②③ C. ②④ D. ③④ 12. What is the best title for the passage? A. Chinstrap Penguins’ Busy Lives B. Differences in Rest Between Animals C. Chinstrap Penguins’ Favorite Activities D. Chinstrap Penguins’ Special Sleeping Habits D A video went popular on August 15, 2023. In the video, there was a group of tourists traveling in the desert in Turpan, Northwest China’s Xinjiang Uygur autonomous region. Suddenly they found their hair standing on end, which scared everyone on the scene (在场的). According to the tourists, their hair returned to normal situation after they drove 3 kilometers down the road. Many people on the Internet said the phenomenon (现象) is a sign of a coming storm. They suggested that the group should have run away as soon as possible. However, Feng Minxue, an expert, said that running away is not the best choice. According to Feng, if a person’s hair is dry and there is a little static electricity (静电), there is still time to leave. However, if the hair has already stood on end, running can be fatal because it may put the person in danger. The correct way is to lower one’s body height. If they can’t leave the mountain top in time, they should quickly crouch (蹲) down in that place, bring their feet as close together as possible and use their hands to protect their head, avoiding touching the ground. Wu Xueke, a professor, thinks that the clouds with electricity above the head of the tourists caused the situation. The electric field distortion (电场畸变) above their head became strong, and then it caused static electricity in their hair. In some serious cases, the person might be hit by lightning. Therefore, if people meet with such a situation outdoors, they should keep a clear mind and take action properly. 13. What did many people on the Internet advise the tourists to do? A. Stand still. B. Lie down quietly. C. Run away immediately (立即). D. Record the sign carefully. 14. What does the underlined word “fatal” in Paragraph 3 mean? A. Accidental. B. Dangerous. C. Sudden. D. Safe. 15. According to Feng, what should the tourists do? ①Keep their body down. ②Bring their feet close together. ③Protect their head. ④Touch the ground. A. ①②③ B. ①②④ C. ①③④ D. ②③④ 16. What can we know from the last paragraph? A. People outdoors should try to avoid dark clouds. B. The clouds without electricity above the head of the tourists caused the situation. C. People are easily hit by lightning in the desert. D. Strong electric field distortion can cause static electricity in hair.

After I left college in 1932, I decided to find a job in a radio station as a sports announcer (播音员). I went to Chicago knocking on the door of every station. But I got turned down every time. In one station a kind lady told me that big stations wouldn’t hire (雇佣) a person who had no working experience and she suggested that I should try at some smaller stations. Following her advice, I went back to Dixon, where I grew up. There were no radio-announcing jobs in Dixon, and my father said a newly-opened store wanted a local sportsman to work for it. I tried but was refused again. “Everything happens for the best” Mom told me. Dad offered me a car to look for a job. I tried WOC Radio in Davenport, Iowa. The program director, Peter MacArthur, told me that they had already hired an announcer. As I left his office, my frustration (挫折感) boiled over. “How can I become a sports announcer if I can’t get a job in a radio station?” I asked myself aloud. While I was waiting for the lift, I heard someone calling. It was Peter Mac Arthur. “What did you mean? Do you know anything about football?” Then he asked me to have a try. Pleased with my performance, he offered me a chance to work there. On my way home, I thought of my mother’s words, “If you continue, one day something good will happen. Anything wouldn’t have happened without the failure (失败) before. ” 41. When did the writer graduate from college? _______________________________ 42.
