We look at our watches to know the right time for the bus or train. However, there is also a right time to eat, sleep, exercise, and take medicine, too. We can’t look at a clock for the right time for these activities. We must listen to the clock inside our bodies: the biological clock (生物钟) . Barbara Wells exercised every morning. She woke up at 6:00 am. She ran about two miles before she went to work. But Barbara’s legs and back started to hurt. She did some exercise before she ran. But her legs and back still hurt. She ran slower, but the pain didn’t stop. Barbara talked to her doctor. The doctor said, “Don’t run in the morning. Try to exercise later in the day. That is the time when your body is at the right temperature for exercise after work.” Her legs and back don’t hurt anymore. Today, doctors are learning more about chronobiology, the study of biological clocks. They are learning about the importance of time for our bodies. For example, it is best for people to go to sleep at the same time every night and to eat only when they’re hungry. Also, doctors discovered that some illness, such as heart attacks (心脏病), happen most often in the morning. This information tells them that the best time to take heart medicine may be at night. When patients take heart medicine at night, they may prevent (预防) a heart attack in the morning. Because of these great importance of the biological clock, many doctors believe chronobiology can help us live healthier lives. It may be the right time to listen to the clock inside our bodies. 8. What clock do we have inside our bodies? A. The alarm clock. B. The biological clock. C. The time clock. D. The kitchen clock. 9. How does Paragraph 3 explain how the natural system controls (控制) our activities ? A. By giving reasons. B. By making comparisons (比较). C. By listing numbers. D. By providing an example. 10. What does the underlined word “ chronobiology” most probably mean in Chinese? A. 生物钟学 B. 生态学 C. 生物研究 D. 生态研究 11. What’s the writer’s purpose of writing the text? A. To introduce Barbara’s experience. B. To tell the importance of the biological clock. C. To show the roles of different clocks. D. To teach us the natural system’s structure. 【答案】8. B 9. D 10. A 11. B 【解析】 【导语】本文主要讲述了生物钟的重要性。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据“We must listen to the clock inside our bodies: the biological clock (生物钟) .”可知，我们体内有生物钟。故选B。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。根据“For example, it is best for people to go to sleep at the same time every night and to eat only when they’re hungry. Also, doctors discovered that some illness, such as heart attacks (心脏病) , happen most often in the morning. ”可知，本段通过举例子来解释自然系统如何控制我们的活动。故选D。 【10题详解】 词义猜测题。根据“Today, doctors are learning more about ‘chronobiology’. It means the study of biological clocks.”可知，医生们在研究生物钟，所以应是正在学习关于“生物钟学”的知识。所以，这里的chronobiology表示“生物钟学”的意思。故选A。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。根据“Because of these great importance of the biological clock, many doctors believe chronobiology can help us live healthier lives. It may be the right time to listen to the clock inside our bodies.”可知，本文讲述生物钟的重要性。故选B。 D Basket full of dreams A set of photos of a boy carrying his tennis rackets in a bamboo basket has gone viral (走红). The boy, Wang Fa, 14, is a member of the Va ethnic group (佤族) from Yunnan. After winning the under-14 title (冠军) in the Guangzhou stop of the 2022 ASICS Tennis Junior Tour, an audience (观众) member from Yunnan gave him the bamboo basket as a gift and the photos were taken. “We always carry bamboo baskets when we work in the field. This is a typical farming tool of the Va ethnic group. I carried my rackets in this basket to honor my hometown.” Wang said after the match. Before tennis, Wang was just an ordinary boy from a village. But in 2016, he was chosen by a local club as one of the first 10 local children to learn to play professional tennis. “I was nervous at the beginning because the outside world was so different from my home.” he said, adding that tennis has helped him make more friends and get a better education. Over the past six years, Wang, along with other players at the Yunnan Wild Elephants Tennis Club, has trained hard to improve his skills and physical strength. The children would get up at 6:30 a.m. and practice for more than six hours a day. Every day, they need to swing a racket more than 7,000 times and run 9 kilometers. “If it were not for tennis, I would still be helping out my family with farmwork back home,” Wang said. Wang’s parents didn’t want him to learn tennis at first because they couldn’t afford it. But the tennis club offered to teach him for free. Wang’s hometown, the mountainous Cangyuan Va autonomous country, was just lifted out of poverty (脱贫) in 2019, reported China Daily. For Wang, winning the ASICS Tennis Junior Tour title was the beginning of a hopeful future, “I will aim for the top spots (位置) on the professional stage (职业舞台),” he said. 12.

His parents gave it to him to carry rackets. B. It was the one that he used to do farmwork. C. It was one of the prizes from the competition. D. One of the game audience members gave it to him. 14. Paragraph 4 is written to ________. A. describe Wang’s life in the club B. show how Wang’s life has changed C. explain why Wang chose this activity D. present Wang’s talents in his young age. 15. What can we learn from Wang’s words in Paragraph 6? A. He thinks that the training is tiring. B. He is thankful for joining the tennis club. C. Competition is serious in the tennis club. D. He likes doing farmwork more than playing tennis. 【答案】12. C 13. D 14. B 15. B 【解析】 【导语】本文主要介绍了来自云南的佤族男孩王发背着一个竹篮，竹篮里放着网球拍，他通过打网球改变了自己的命运。 【12题详解】 推理判断题。根据“The boy, Wang Fa, 14, is a member of the Va ethnic group (佤族) from Yunnan. After winning the under-14 title (冠军) in the Guangzhou stop of the 2022 ASICS Tennis Junior Tour,”和“But in 2016, he was chosen by a local club as one of the first 10 local children to learn to play professional tennis.”可知，2022年时，王发14岁；在2016年，王发开始打职业网球，那时的他是8岁。故选C。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据“an audience (观众) member from Yunnan gave him the bamboo basket as a gift and the photos were taken”可知，一位来自云南的观众把竹篮作为礼物送给了他。故选D。 【14题详解】 段落大意题。根据“Before tennis, Wang was just an ordinary boy from a village....adding that tennis has helped him make more friends and get a better education.”可知，本段主要介绍了王发的生活因为打网球而发生了变化。故选B。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据“‘If it were not for tennis, I would still be helping out my family with farmwork back home,’ Wang said.”可知，如果不是因为打网球，王可能还在家里帮忙干农活。由此可知他很感激能加入网球俱乐部。故选B。 第二节（共5 小题; 每小题 1分, 满分5分） 根据材料内容，将A—F中选出五个句子还原到文中空白处，使短文完整通顺。 As a language learner, you are not alone.

Millions of years before there were sharks. There are small sharks and large sharks in the oceans now. The smallest shark only grows to be about thirty centimeters long. The whale shark can be twenty meters long! Sharks aren’t like most bony fish, they don’t have hard bones inside their bodies. Instead, sharks’ bones are made of cartilage (软骨), like the end of your nose. Most fish have scales (鳞) covering their bodies, including sharks. The scales look like lots of little teeth on the surfaces of sharks. Most sharks feed on fish and little sea animals. Some sharks may eat a meal for one or two months. There are about thirty kinds of sharks that may kill people. Many kinds of sharks are in danger because people kill them for their meat and fins (鳍). We should save sharks. 4. Sharks ________.

The Kinds of Sharks D. Save Sharks C Most of us use alarm clocks to wake up at the right time for school or work. We look at our watches to know the right time for the bus or train. However, there is also a right time to eat, sleep, exercise, and take medicine, too. We can’t look at a clock for the right time for these activities. We must listen to the clock inside our bodies: the biological clock (生物钟) . Barbara Wells exercised every morning. She woke up at 6:00 am. She ran about two miles before she went to work. But Barbara’s legs and back started to hurt. She did some exercise before she ran. But her legs and back still hurt. She ran slower, but the pain didn’t stop. Barbara talked to her doctor. The doctor said, “Don’t run in the morning. Try to exercise later in the day. That is the time when your body is at the right temperature for exercise after work.” Her legs and back don’t hurt anymore. Today, doctors are learning more about chronobiology, the study of biological clocks. They are learning about the importance of time for our bodies. For example, it is best for people to go to sleep at the same time every night and to eat only when they’re hungry. Also, doctors discovered that some illness, such as heart attacks (心脏病), happen most often in the morning. This information tells them that the best time to take heart medicine may be at night. When patients take heart medicine at night, they may prevent (预防) a heart attack in the morning. Because of these great importance of the biological clock, many doctors believe chronobiology can help us live healthier lives. It may be the right time to listen to the clock inside our bodies. 8. What clock do we have inside our bodies? A. The alarm clock. B. The biological clock. C. The time clock. D. The kitchen clock. 9. How does Paragraph 3 explain how the natural system controls (控制) our activities ? A. By giving reasons. B. By making comparisons (比较). C. By listing numbers. D. By providing an example. 10.

B. To tell the importance of the biological clock. C. To show the roles of different clocks. D. To teach us the natural system’s structure. D Basket full of dreams A set of photos of a boy carrying his tennis rackets in a bamboo basket has gone viral (走红). The boy, Wang Fa, 14, is a member of the Va ethnic group (佤族) from Yunnan. After winning the under-14 title (冠军) in the Guangzhou stop of the 2022 ASICS Tennis Junior Tour, an audience (观众) member from Yunnan gave him the bamboo basket as a gift and the photos were taken. “We always carry bamboo baskets when we work in the field. This is a typical farming tool of the Va ethnic group. I carried my rackets in this basket to honor my hometown.” Wang said after the match. Before tennis, Wang was just an ordinary boy from a village. But in 2016, he was chosen by a local club as one of the first 10 local children to learn to play professional tennis. “I was nervous at the beginning because the outside world was so different from my home.” he said, adding that tennis has helped him make more friends and get a better education. Over the past six years, Wang, along with other players at the Yunnan Wild Elephants Tennis Club, has trained hard to improve his skills and physical strength. The children would get up at 6:30 a.m. and practice for more than six hours a day. Every day, they need to swing a racket more than 7,000 times and run 9 kilometers. “If it were not for tennis, I would still be helping out my family with farmwork back home,” Wang said. Wang’s parents didn’t want him to learn tennis at first because they couldn’t afford it. But the tennis club offered to teach him for free. Wang’s hometown, the mountainous Cangyuan Va autonomous country, was just lifted out of poverty (脱贫) in 2019, reported China Daily. For Wang, winning the ASICS Tennis Junior Tour title was the beginning of a hopeful future, “I will aim for the top spots (位置) on the professional stage (职业舞台),” he said. 12. How old was Wang Fa when he started to play professional tennis? A. Six. B. Seven. C. Eight. D. Nine. 13. Where did Wang Fa get the bamboo basket in the photos? A.

Paragraph 4 is written to ________. A. describe Wang’s life in the club B. show how Wang’s life has changed C. explain why Wang chose this activity D. present Wang’s talents in his young age. 15. What can we learn from Wang’s words in Paragraph 6? A. He thinks that the training is tiring. B. He is thankful for joining the tennis club. C. Competition is serious in the tennis club. D.
