She first had the idea when her oldest child was still a baby, so that’s about six years ago(19)—but it took at least two years of campaigning before she was actually able to make it happen. So the project’s been up and running for four years now. She’d love to be able to close the road for longer—for the whole weekend(20), from Saturday morning until Sunday evening, for example. At the moment it’s just once a week. But when she started, it was only once a month. But she’s working on it. Now let’s welcome Alice Riches.(17) 第二部分　阅读(共两节，满分50分) 第一节(共15小题；每小题2.5分，满分37.5分) 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 Master Gardener Volunteers Wanted Why to Become a Master Gardener Volunteer?

So, like many others, he surfed the Internet to find out just how many others on the social network shared his name. Moments later, dozens of name twins from around the world filled his screen. On a whim, he decided to send friend requests to them all. Many of his fellow Paul O’Sullivans ignored him, but a few felt too curious to pass up his invitation. As Baltimore Paul scrolled through the other Paul O’Sullivans’ profiles, he noticed something four of them had in common: They were all musicians. Like Baltimore Paul, Rotterdam Paul sang and played the guitar. Another Paul in Manchester, England, played the bass. And Paul from Pennsylvania was a drummer. Baltimore Paul had an idea. Wouldn’t it be funny, he asked the other musical Pauls, if they formed a band called The Paul O’Sullivans? Yes, they all agreed. Starting a band across multiple time zones proved to be tricky. Shaky Wi­Fi and other technical difficulties meant they were often out of sync(不同步). And being even half a second off from one another wrecked their sound. To fix _____ , they created a sort of musical assembly line. Baltimore Paul and Rotterdam Paul wrote and recorded a basic track, then e-­mailed it to Manchester Paul. this “I listen to the song over a few days，” says Manchester Paul, to get a feel for what bass arrangement seems most appropriate. “Once he recorded a bass track, he e­mailed it back to Baltimore Paul, who then built it into the main song. Later, Pennsylvania Paul added the drumbeat. Round and round the track went, with each member adding on his own layer until they achieved the sound they want. The Paul O’Sullivan Band released its first original song, “Namesake”， in March 2016, which was about long­distance relationships. __________ __________________________________________________________ After all, the band had already got the hang of remote work. They used their time during the pandemic to record their first EP. Titled Internet Famous: A Retrospective, it was released last April. “What are the odds，” says Baltimore Paul, “that a random friend request would lead not only to new music but to lasting friendships as well? Some things are just meant to be.” And when COVID­-19 slowly shut down the world, the Pauls didn’t miss a beat. (　　)24．How can the four Paul O’Sullivans be distinguished? A．By the musical instruments they play. B．By their e­mail addresses. C．By the musical styles they like. D．By the places they come from. D (　　)25．What does the underlined word “this” refer to in Paragraph 3? A．The inaccessibility of Wi­Fi. B．The existence of technical barriers. C．Their being in different time zones. D．Their lack of experience. B (　　)26．What can we infer from the underlined sentence in Paragraph 5? A．The band had to pause because of the pandemic. B．The band got inspired and composed original songs. C．The whole world was badly destroyed by COVID-­19. D．The band continued to work in spite of the pandemic. D (　　)27．What can be the best title for the passage? A．Banding Together B．A Random Friend Request C．Long­-Distance Friendships D．A Pure Coincidence 【语篇解读】本文讲述了Paul O’Sullivan在网上寻找和自己同名的人并向他们发送好友申请，然后结识了四位同名的朋友并发现他们都玩音乐，最后一起组乐队并且跨越时空进行线上创作的故事。 A 24．D　细节理解题。根据第二段中的“They were all musicians. Like Baltimore Paul, Rotterdam Paul sang and played the guitar. Another Paul in Manchester, England, played the bass. And Paul from Pennsylvania was a drummer.(他们都是音乐家。像巴尔的摩的保罗一样，鹿特丹的保罗唱歌和弹吉他。另一个在英国曼彻斯特的保罗演奏低音电吉他。来自宾夕法尼亚州的保罗是个鼓手。)”可知，四个人都玩音乐，其不同点在于他们来自不同的地方。故选D。 25．B　代词指代题。根据第三段中的“Shaky Wi­Fi and other technical difficulties meant they were often out of sync(不同步). And being even half a second off from one another wrecked their sound.(不稳定的无线网络和其他技术问题意味着他们经常不同步。即使只有半秒钟的延迟也会破坏他们的声音。)”可知，这个跨时区的乐队面临着无线网络不稳定和其他技术难题，因此“this”在此处指代技术障碍的存在。故选B。 26．D　推理判断题。根据第五段中的“After all, the band had already got the hang of remote work. They used their time during the pandemic to record their first EP.(毕竟，乐队已经掌握了远程工作的窍门。他们利用疫情期间的时间录制了他们的第一张慢速唱片。)”可知，在疫情之下，他们克服种种困难并完成了第一张慢速唱片的制作，即尽管在疫情期间，这个乐队仍然继续着他们的音乐制作。故选D。 27．A　主旨大意题。通读全文可知，文章讲述了来自不同地方的四位同名音乐家通过网络结识，并在网络上组建乐队，跨越时空进行线上创作的故事。A项中的“banding”说明了文章的主题——通过网络合作的乐队。“banding together”又体现了他们团结合作的精神。故选A。 C One of the greatest things about pictures is that they make no demands on you. You can look as long as you like and walk away at any time. Occasionally, people always say they feel frightened by art. Some people in the art world, wanting to establish their authority, fall back on abstractions. But what field doesn’t see a version of this phenomenon? Have you tried understanding biology or law? In my experience, there is less of this complex talk around art than around most other fields. Art is a wide field. It’s deep. It’s diverse. You can come at the subject from countless angles. People seem to have been making art since the beginning, so the subject is an inseparable part of the whole history of humanity. But, in the end, we’re talking about pictures and sculptures. How hard is it to look at a painting? How difficult is it to walk around a sculpture? Children get it immediately. They know there’s no right or wrong when it comes to looking at art. More than the political or economic conditions of any given era, it is art that later generations most want to remember. We remember Picasso and Matisse over the chief ministers of Britain in the 1960s. That’s because art reveals the best of us. It’s because it combines the most intelligent and the most feeling of us. It testifies, most fundamentally, to the fact that we’re alive, that people lived before us, that as a species we’re capable of making the most extraordinary things, and that human consciousness and the world beyond it are nothing short of astonishing things. Again and again, art expresses that astonishment—that mixture of wonder and disappointment, knowing and unknowing, pleasure and pain, joy and fear. (　　)28．What’s the author’s attitude towards the phenomenon in Paragraph 1? A．Indifferent. B．Acceptable. C．Doubtful. D．Disapproving. (　　)29．What is the main idea of the first two paragraphs? A．Art is complicated but easy. B．Art is as complex as other fields. C．Art is insufferable due to its abstraction. D．Art is an inseparable part of human history. B A (　　)30．Why does the author mention Picasso and Matisse? A．To emphasize artists are more adorable. B．To compare political and artistic figures. C．To show art can spread in a broader area. D．To illustrate the superior position of art. D (　　)31．What can we learn from the passage? A．Art mixes abstract concepts. B．Art brings everlasting amazement. C．Art perfects the thoughts of beauty. D．Art combines unsettled contradictions. 【解析】 【语篇解读】文章探讨了艺术的优越地位，它揭示了我们最好的一面，这是因为它结合了我们最聪明和最感性的一面。它从根本上证明了我们有能力做出最非凡的事情。 D 28．B　推理判断题。根据第一段中的“But what field doesn’t see a version of this phenomenon? (但哪个领域没有这种现象呢？)”和“In my experience, there is less of this complex talk around art than around most other fields.(根据我的经验，与大多数其他领域相比，艺术领域很少有这种复杂的讨论。)”可推断出，作者对于第一段中的这种现象是接受的。故选B。 29．A　主旨大意题。根据第一段可知，作者认为与大多数其他领域相比，艺术领域很少有这种复杂的讨论；根据第二段可知，作者认为艺术是一个广阔的领域。它是深奥的。它是多样性的。你可以从无数个角度来探讨它。孩子们马上就会明白绘画和雕塑，因为他们知道看待艺术没有对错之分。由此可推断出，前两段主要讲述：艺术是复杂的，但也是简单的。故选A。 30．D　推理判断题。第三段第一句和第二句“More than the political or economic conditions of any given era, it is art that later generations most want to remember.We remember Picasso and Matisse over the chief ministers of Britain in the 1960s.”说明后人最想记住的是艺术，而不是任何特定时代的政治或经济状况。比起英国的主要政治人物，我们更记得毕加索和马蒂斯。本段接下来介绍了人们有这种倾向的原因。因此作者在第三段提到毕加索和马蒂斯是为了说明艺术的优越地位。故选D。 31．D　推理判断题。根据最后一段“Again and again, art expresses that astonishment—that mixture of wonder and disappointment, knowing and unknowing, pleasure and pain, joy and fear.(艺术一次又一次地表达了那种惊奇——那种惊奇与失望、知与无知、快乐与痛苦、喜悦与恐惧的结合体。)”可推知，艺术结合了悬而未决的矛盾。故选D。 D The majority of people are unable to commit to a healthy long­-term lifestyle—although they are somehow willing to! There seems to be a paradox here. We become more aware of the importance of leading a healthy lifestyle on a regular basis. Yet, we just don’t manage to. We may engage in a variety of short­term projects: 1­-week detox retreats or 1­-month severe diets. But the benefits these short-­term activities produce are quickly lost as we are dragged back to our “bad” habits in the longer term. The inability to stick to a healthy lifestyle makes us feel frustrated and unhealthy. What is the way out then? The first step is to understand the problem more deeply: What are the main obstacles to pursuing a healthy lifestyle? Which are the fundamental aspects of a healthy lifestyle? How are they interconnected? If we understand the problem and its components more deeply, we are one step closer to coming up with a solution. Surveys show, in 85% of cases in the US and Europe, the main obstacles to pursuing a healthy lifestyle are found to be among lack of awareness, time, self­control and guidelines. “Humans tend to heavily discount the future, meaning things that we have now are more valuable to us than things we’ll have in a few years，” said A.Braun in 2019. For this reason, we cannot correctly weigh the costs and consequences of choosing unhealthy habits today, and we tend to give in to short-­term pleasures, although this means reducing longer­term benefits. We deliberately choose to experience and enjoy short­term pleasure, mainly because of a stressful condition we may have, or because of personality. The underlying reason for these behaviours is primarily stress, as neuroscience discoveries in fact suggest, “In general, stress results in habitual behaviour in humans, so dealing first and foremost with stress is probably advisable when you are looking to make lasting changes. Luckily, your brain can change throughout life. Decreasing stress could finally help your brain become less easily influenced by habit.” (　　)32．Why do people engage in various short-­term projects? A．To delete a bad habit. B．To keep a healthy lifestyle. C．To go on a severe diet. D．To solve the paradox. B (　　)33．Which of the following is the obstacle to pursuing a healthy lifestyle? A．Lacking enough self-­discipline. B．Gaining no reward from working out. C．Having no motive when making schedules. D．Relying on too much guidance from others. A (　　)34．By quoting A.Braun’s words in Paragraph 5, the author wants to ________． A．highlight the association between habits and lifestyles B．stress the long-­term value of forming healthy habits C．show a trend of pursuing long­-term pleasure D．convey people’s commitment to a healthy lifestyle B (　　)35．What can we learn about neuroscience discoveries? A．Changing brain activities helps decrease stress. B．Personality contributes to one’s short­-term pleasure. C．People’s habitual behaviour tends to dominate their emotions. D．Reducing stress is the key to sticking to a healthy lifestyle. 【语篇解读】文章主要说明了大多数人无法致力于一种健康的长期的生活方式的原因以及解决方案。 D 32．B　细节理解题。根据第二段中的“We become more aware of the importance of leading a healthy lifestyle on a regular basis. Yet, we just don’t manage to. We may engage in a variety of short­-term projects: 1­week detox retreats or 1-­month severe diets.”可知，人们致力于各种短期计划是为了保持健康的生活方式。故选B。 33．A　细节理解题。根据第四段“Surveys show, in 85% of cases in the US and Europe, the main obstacles to pursuing a healthy lifestyle are found to be among lack of awareness, time, self­control and guidelines.”可知，追求健康生活方式的障碍之一是缺乏自律。故选A。 34．B　推理判断题。根据第五段中A.Braun说的话可知，A.Braun在2019年说人类倾向于严重低估未来，这意味着对我们来说，我们现在拥有的东西比几年后我们将拥有的东西更有价值。出于这个原因，我们不能正确地衡量今天选择不健康习惯的代价和后果，我们倾向屈服于短期的快乐，尽管这意味着减少长期的好处。由此推知，通过在第五段引用A.Braun的话，作者想强调养成健康习惯的长期价值。故选B。 35．D　细节理解题。根据最后一段中的“The underlying reason for these behaviours is primarily stress, as neuroscience discoveries in fact suggest, ‘In general, stress results in habitual behaviour in humans, so dealing first and foremost with stress is probably advisable when you are looking to make lasting changes.’”可知，我们能从神经科学的发现中学到减少压力是坚持健康生活方式的关键。故选D。 第二节(共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 As the proverb goes, “Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.” 36．_____ A paper published two years ago in Nature found a connection between people’s sense of well­being and the scenicness(美景) of where they lived. The paper’s authors measured scenicness by conducting a survey among volunteers. A The connection, the paper’s authors found, held true whether a neighbourhood was urban or rural. 37．_____ Nor did levels of air pollution have any influence on it. The authors also discovered that differences in volunteers’ health were better explained by the scenicness of where they lived than by the amount of green space around them. 38．_____ The team behind that paper in Nature have nevertheless decided to have a go. They have adapted a computer programme to recognise beautiful landscapes, whether natural or artificial, using the criteria that a human beholder would employ. The programme’s task was D G to work out, by analysing each photograph’s features in the context of its Scenic-­or­-Not ratings, what it is that makes a landscape scenic. Most of the results are not surprising. Lakes scored well. So did valleys and snowy mountains. In artificial landscapes, castles, churches and cottages were seen as scenic. 39．_____ The analysis did, however, confirm one important finding from the team’s previous study, which is also a message for town planners. Green spaces alone are not scenic. To be so they need to involve contours(轮廓) and trees. 40．_____ B E A．But surroundings matter. B．Hospitals, garages and motels scored not so highly. C．So people have a deep affection for where they live. D．It bore no relation to volunteers’ social and economic status. E．Therefore, less grass and more trees and bushes would be welcome. F．Natural landscapes are rated as scenicness as opposed to artificial landscapes. G．Determining what scenicness is, though, has always been frustrating for scientists. 【语篇解读】本文主要介绍了人们的幸福感与他们所居住的地方的景色之间存在联系。 36．A　根据上文“As the proverb goes, ‘Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.’(俗话说，‘情人眼里出西施。’)”可知，美是个人的主观感受。A项“But surroundings matter.(但是环境很重要。)”与上文构成转折，提出环境也很重要，从而引出下文关于幸福感与环境之间的联系的论文研究，符合语境。故选A。 37．D　根据上文“The connection, the paper’s authors found, held true whether a neighbourhood was urban or rural.(论文发现，无论是在城市还是在农村，这种联系都是存在的。)”和下文“Nor did levels of air pollution have any influence on it.(空气污染水平也不对其产生影响。)”可知，D项“It bore no relation to volunteers’ social and economic status.(它与志愿者的社会和经济地位无关。)”符合语境，继续阐述论文作者关于影响人们幸福感的因素的发现，其中“no”与下文中的“Nor”相对应。故选D。 38．G　根据下文“The team behind that paper in Nature have nevertheless decided to have a go.(尽管如此，《自然》杂志上那篇论文背后的团队还是决定试一试。)”中的“nevertheless”可知，空处内容与空后一句存在语义上的转折关系。再根据本段最后一句“The programme’s task was to work out, by analysing each photograph’s features in the context of its Scenic­or­Not ratings, what it is that makes a landscape scenic.(该项目的任务是通过分析对应不同美景等级的照片的特征，找出是什么使景色成为美景。)”可知，团队尝试分析景色被视为美景的因素。由此可知，G项“Determining what scenicness is, though, has always been frustrating for scientists.(然而，对于科学家来说，确定什么是美景一直是一件令人沮丧的事情。)”符合语境，引出下文叙述研究团队为弄清什么是美景所做的努力和尝试。故选G。 39．B　根据上文“In artificial landscapes, castles, churches and cottages were seen as scenic.(人工景观中，城堡、教堂和村舍被视为美景。)”可知，人工景观被视为美景。B项“Hospitals, garages and motels scored not so highly.(医院、车库和汽车旅馆的评分不高。)”承接上文，进一步列举人工景观，并由此引出下文的结论“The analysis did, however, confirm one important finding from the team’s previous study, which is also a message for town planners. Green spaces alone are not scenic.(然而，分析确实证实了该团队之前研究的一个重要发现，这也给城市规划者带来了启示。仅有绿地并不被视为美景。)”。故选B。 40．E　根据上文“Green spaces alone are not scenic. To be so they need to involve contours(轮廓) and trees.(仅有绿地并不被视为美景，要成为美景，需要有轮廓和树木。)”可知，轮廓和树木是构成风景的必要元素。E项“Therefore, less grass and more trees and bushes would be welcome.(因此，少些草，多些树和灌木是受欢迎的。)”符合语境，进一步对上文进行补充说明。故选E。 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。 That morning, I got on the train as always. I was a publishing director and was looking forward to embracing a new day of work, as usual. I would always turn to the crossword(纵横填字游戏), but that day it didn’t make sense. I’d been doing it for 30 years, but trying to read this one was like walking through syrup(糖浆)： 41 slow and hard. I thought I must be tired. 1 2 3 4 I said that to my assistant. The 42 colleague contacted my wife, Beth, and she drove me straight to hospital. There, confirmation came that I’d had a stroke in the part of my brain that 43 with communication. I was now in a condition that meant it was difficult or 44 to receive and produce language. It was the only time I cried. I was back at home a week later, and my goal was to get better and return to work in a couple of months. The way to 45 my language ability was rough. I’d look at simple pictures and try to describe them as my mind 46 round and round in darkness, looking for words. As months passed, it became self­evident that I wasn’t going to be able to go back to my old job. For 25 years, I had 47 myself as a publisher. I was used to a busy day of meetings. I didn’t feel ready to say goodbye to my old self. There were times when I felt incredibly 48 . In the darkest months, I devoted myself to 49 . I couldn’t manage novels or newspapers, 50 I tried reading poetry, and found the shorter lines less overwhelming. My speech came back, and I learned how to read again, though much more slowly. I also learned the 51 to keep up. I allowed myself to slow down, and started to enjoy it. 52 ， I got rid of my old skin. I grieved over the past, its passing and its absence, but started to come to terms 53 it. Now, 10 years later, I look after my grandson a day a week, and my relationship with my family is deeper than ever. If you’d asked me 15 years ago to 54 the importance of the things in my life, I might have said work came first, but now I’m no longer a high­achieving publisher or someone who reads 10 books a week. I’m a 55 man, and if I read 10 books a year, that’s pretty good.

The activity lasted a whole morning. At the beginning, soft music was played to create a relaxing atmosphere. With the music, we found our place and settled ourselves into a comfortable position. The teacher gave a speech about mental health, and asked us to relax according to her instructions and think about the happy things we had experienced. Next, we shared the pleasant things with each other in groups. Not only is this theme activity of great benefit to our mental health but it also enriches our school life.　 第二节(满分25分) 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。 I did it finally. After four years of struggling, studying, and working nights in the library to help pay my tuition, there were only thirty seconds of the last minute of the last exam of the last class of my college career. All I had to do now was cross the campus to my car and drive home to start my new life as a college graduate. I never imagined that my most valuable lesson off campus was awaiting me. Halfway across campus, suddenly what was otherwise a sunny day began to cloud over. Was that a drop of rain I just felt on my cheek? What next? By the time I reached my car, I was wet through. There was a lot of traffic. I guess everyone else was in a hurry to get home and start their new lives, too. I inched out of the parking lot and drove to the edge of campus. One more traffic light to go! The light turned green but the car in front of me didn’t move. The driver began to honk. Then he moved around whatever was blocking his path and sped off. I began to do the same when I realised that the obstruction was a man in a wheelchair. In fact, I recognised him. He was one of my fellow classmates. I had seen him many times over the past four years. Chairbound as he was, he was gentle and always wore a smile. But I had never spoken to him. I was in a hurry. I had something important to do. I began to drive off. I glanced in my rearview mirror and saw the man struggling to get his chair out of the muddy crossing. “Surely someone else would help him，” I thought. But what if everyone else thought that, too? I pulled my car over, ran back to Jordan and got him out of the crossing. But should I push him to wherever he was going, in the rain, in the mud? 注意： 1．续写词数应为150左右； 2．请按如下格式作答。 One possible version： As I was sorting through this moral dilemma, I looked down at Jordan._____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ He was trembling in the rain. But he was smiling. For some reason, he didn’t seem to mind. He clearly didn’t expect me to do more than I had already done. He began to wheel off up the muddy sidewalk. I couldn’t leave him now. I locked my car and quickly caught up with him. _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ When we finally reached Jordan’s apartment, Jordan insisted that I come in and meet his mother.______________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ I began to push. It was uphill for what seemed like a mile. Every hundred yards or so, with great effort, Jordan would crane his neck around so that he could look up at me in appreciation. “How could I have even thought of leaving him？” I thought. When I got inside, not only was I surprised, but I was impressed by the efficiency and good taste. Each item was carefully placed and within Jordan’s reach. I followed Jordan to the back bedroom and was introduced to his bedridden mother who I later __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ found out had suffered from a stroke some years earlier. His mother expressed her gratitude and said: “In the last four years, not one person has ever helped my son. It’s not that he needs help, but it gets lonely out there sometimes.” I didn’t know what to say. I stayed for dinner. Jordan and I celebrated our last day of school together. That day, I learned my most valuable lesson off-­campus.   感谢聆听，再见！ $$
