He wanted to win the local garden club’s “Yard of the Month” award. But he didn’t have the money to buy new trees, so he began by using bushes and shrubs (矮树苗) that a local nursery had thrown away—that looked dead to most people. Because he worked days at a can factory, Jordan often tended his garden at night. Neighbors got used to seeing one little headlight as Jordan stood on a ladder, cutting and shaping his steadily growing bushes. Gradually, the shrubs took on different shapes. Jordan then began planting trees and using zip ties, coat hangers, PVC pipe, and even his wife’s old stockings to achieve the forms he wanted. “He has a way of manipulating plants to do things he wants them to do by training, bending, wiring, and clipping,” says a neighbor, “And the plants seem to bend to his will.” Many professional gardeners are amazed by what Jordan has been able to achieve. “The garden itself was created from lack of knowledge,” says Jordan in his booming bass voice, “because I didn’t know you weren’t supposed to do this with plants. For one time in my life, ignorance paid off.” Jordan’ attention to detail and his willingness to work hard have made him a local hero. He was the fist African American to win “Yard of the Month” honor from the local garden club. And more recognition followed: articles in major newspapers and appearances on well-known TV shows. Jordan’s garden now includes about 400 species of plants and 150 shrubs in different shapes. On his front yard, four-foot-tall letters filled with bright red begonias (秋海棠) spell Love, Peace, and Goodwill. These are the principles Jordan lives by. A box for donations can be found on the property, but giving is optional. Jordan welcomes people who can’t afford to pay. He understands; he’s been there. 24. What does Jordan’s experience of building the garden tell us? A. Beggars can’t be choosers. B. A good beginning is half done. C. Where there is a will, there is a way. D. Hope for the best, but prepare for the worst. 25. What does the underlined word “manipulating” mean in paragraph 2? A. Using. B. Expecting. C. Tending. D. Controlling. 26. Which of the following words can best describe Jordan? A. Brave and hard-working B. Creative and committed. C. Passionate but careless. D. Ambitious but ignorant. 27. What can be inferred from the last paragraph? A. Jordan comes from a poor family. B. Tickets are expensive for visitors. C It is worthwhile to pay for the visit. D. Jordan lives on donation from others. C According to a report by South China Morning Post, China is planning to launch a hyperloop (超级高铁), also known as a super-high speed pipeline maglev system by 2035. If the project goes as planned, the new train will be the world’s fastest ground-based transport technology. Chinese authorities have announced the approval of the country’s first hyperloop line. Its length will be 175 kilometers, and it will pass between the cities of Shanghai and Hangzhou. These are two key metropolitan areas for the country’s economy, known for their large populations. The distance between these two cities can now be covered in about three hours by car or an hour by high-speed train. However, the hyperloop can reach speeds of up to 1000 km/h, which means that the route can be completed in just 15 minutes. That’s 2 times faster than commercial passenger planes and 10 times than traditional high-speed trains. The proposed project will make China one of the pioneers in hyperloop technology, allowing faster travel between several major cities. The hyperloop provides a high-security level with low energy consumption. It reduces noise and pollution levels while still being faster than commercial flights and the fastest current bullet train. The technology will further advance China’s position as a leader in transport. A super-fast hyperloop train in China has completed its first test runs. These consisted of three test runs at a superconducting maglev test line in Datong, Shanxi province that reached the speed of 50 km/h. However, the current tube available for trials measures only 2 km in length. It is expected to be extended to 60 km over the next few years. 28. What is the project about? A. Building the world’s longest rail line. B. Enlarging the passenger capacity of the train. C. Constructing the first hyperloop line in China. D. Expanding the coverage of the railway system. 29. What are the figures in paragraph 3 intended for? A. To prove the high speed of the hyperloop. B. To stress the convenience of traveling by railway. C. To state the necessity of developing high-speed trains. D. To show China ‘s great efforts to improve transport technology. 30. What does paragraph 4 mainly tell us about the project? A. Its main purposes. B. Its potential value. C. Its specific tasks. D. Its environmental benefits. 31. What is the next step of the project? A. Extending the railway line for trials. B. Increasing the length of the hyperloop trains. C. Conducting the train’s first test runs in Datong. D. Reducing noise and pollution levels of the train. D Medicine is not only a human invention. Many other animals have been known to self-medicate with plants and minerals for infections and other conditions. Behavioral ecologist Helen Morrogh-Bernard has spent decades studying orangutans (猩猩) and says she has now found evidence they use plants in a medicinal way. Morrogh and her colleagues watched 10 orangutans occasionally chew a particular plant (which is not part of their normal diet) into a foamy lather (泡沫) and then rub it into their fur. The apes spent up to 45 minutes at a time massaging the mixture onto their upper arms or legs. The researchers believe this behavior is the first known example using a painkiller. Local people use the same plant, Dracaena cantleyi, to treat aches and pains. Morrogh’s co-authors studied its chemistry. They added extracts (汁) from the plant to human cells that had been grown in a dish and had been artificially stimulated to produce cytokines (细胞因子) that causes inflammation (炎症) and discomfort. The plant extract reduced the production of several types of cytokines, the scientists reported the finding in a study published last November in Scientific Reports. The results suggest that orangutans use the plant to reduce inflammation and treat pain. Such findings could help identify plants and chemicals that might be useful for human medications. In creatures such as insects, the ability to self-medicate is almost certainly innate; woolly bear (灯蛾毛虫) infected with flies seek out and eat plant substances poisonous to the flies. But more complex animals may learn such tricks after an initial discovery by one member of their group. For example, an orangutan may have rubbed the plant on its skin to try to treat parasites (寄生虫) and realized that it also had a pleasant pain-killing effect. That behavior may then have been passed on to other orangutans. Because this type of self-medication is seen only in south-central Borneo, Morrogh says, it was probably learned locally. 32. Why does orangutans chew Dracaena cantleyi? A. To self medicate. B. To have their normal diet. C. To scare other animals away. D. To pass on a message to other orangutans. 33. How can the findings benefit human being? A. They can help vets treat pets. B. They can help scientists study orangutans. C. They can help botanist learn more about plants. D. They can help people find new resources for human medication. 34. Which of the following best explains the underlined word “innate” in paragraph 6? A. natural B. sociable C. obtainable D. professional 35. What is the main idea of the text? A. Apes use plant extracts to treat pain. B. Humans and animals have a lot in common. C. A plant has been found useful for human medication. D. Morrogh-Bernard and her colleagues have been observing orangutans. 第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) Have you ever complained that there just aren’t enough hours in a day? Do you usually find yourself falling short on time in completing assigned tasks? ____36____ No matter how hard I tried to be focused and productive, tasks just kept piling up towards the end every day. That didn’t change until I discovered Time Blocking, since when my daily schedule has been transformed for the better. So what is it exactly? It is a simple time management technique where you divided your day into time blocks that are dedicated to specific tasks or groups of tasks. It’s a popular method to boost your productivity and allow you to focus on your tasks. ____37____ Imagine that a dozen or so tasks are due tomorrow. Like a majority of people, you open your to-do app of choice and neatly list down everything that you plan to do, and then plot some important meetings and reminders in your calendar app. ____38____ . Once you start Time Blocking, you’ll overcome this shortcoming. ____39____ The more specific you are about the task, the more focused you will be and thus, more productive. A properly organized time-blocked schedule is far more effective than any form of to-do list. ____40____It not only makes your to-do list more manageable but also it gives you more control over your day and increases your productivity. Each task or group of tasks in a day is a small-scale goal for you to achieve within that time-frame, so you are more determined to meet deadlines and reach your goals. It also improves your focus and helps get rid of procrastination (拖延症), as you are only working on one specific task at a time. A. I used to be in the same boat. B. I believe you have encountered questions like this C. The benefits of Time Blocking are considerable. D. You work your way down the priority list and everything goes as planned. E. You can regard it as a combination of a To-do list and a Calendar schedule. F. You’ll need to be very specific about what you’re planning to do in that time block. G. While it sounds logical, it makes you jump between different kinds of tasks without focus. 第三部分 语言运用(共两节，满分30分) 第一节 完形填空(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和D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 In my 30s, I decided to learn to ride a bike.

It was snowing heavily and the traffic inched slowly forward like snails. I was so hungry because I skipped my lunch that I decided to stop by KFC and had a quick bite before I continued my journey home. It took me a long time to find a place to park my car. With my face buried in my collar, I walked slowly in the snow. Soon my hands were numb(麻木) with cold, so I pulled my gloves out of my coat pocket and put them on. I ordered some fried chicken and dug into my pocket for my wallet to pay, only to find it was not there! I remembered I did bring it with me before I set out. Embarrassed, I left the chicken on the counter and said I would return in a minute. Deeply worried, I got out of KFC and ran towards my car, wondering where my wallet, with everything in it, was. Fresh snow was like a blank paper, recording my tracks. My attention fixed on the ground, I expected to find it on my way. Unfortunately, what I found was only the shape of it in the snow. Obviously, I lost it when I pulled my gloves out. Judging from the footprints on the ground, I was not the only one. There was someone else joining my way. But the footprints of this guy were messy. It seemed that he walked back and forth. My heart sank. At a loss of which way he went, I knew I could never claim my wallet back. Bye, fried chicken, not today. I walked towards my car helplessly. A short, skinny man was standing by my car. He seemed like homeless because he was dressed in oversized worn-out coat and his face was dirty. He was stamping his feet to keep warm. I felt sorry for him because I had nothing to help him, no money, no food. 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。 The man noticed me and asked if this was my car. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Refusing my money he was about to leave. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$第一节听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的ABC3个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段对话后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题，每段对话仅读一遍。Text one, don't forget to prepare the bread deer and cook some eggs too.

I'll collect the notebooks every two weeks. You'll be graded on lab notebooks and quiz es. But the most important information I want to give you now is about safety. First of all, you must wear shoes that cover your feet in the lab. Tenny shoes are okay. Also don't wear loose clothes, long scarves, big necklaces or loose spouts. They get caught in something or fall into liquid. Another thing to do for safety is to clean up. Be sure to put the waste in the correct containers. We can't mix liquid with paper. This is extremely important. I don't want any fires in this room. You are responsible for washing out your own lab equipment and putting IT away. If you don't do this, I will take away points from your grade. Nobody's going to clean up up to you. okay? Any questions? Hello everyone, my name is bonny.

But the most important information I want to give you now is about safety. First of all, you must wear shoes that cover your feet in the lab. Tenny shoes are OK also don't wear loose clothes, long scarves, big necklace asses or loose spouts. They get caught in something or fall into liquid. Another thing to do for safety is to clean up. Be sure to put the waste in the correct containers. We can't mix liquid with paper. This is extremely important. I don't want any fires in this room. You are responsible for washing out your own lab equipment and putting IT away. If you don't do this, I will take away points from your grade. Nobody's going to clean up up to you. okay?

He wanted to win the local garden club’s “Yard of the Month” award. But he didn’t have the money to buy new trees, so he began by using bushes and shrubs (矮树苗) that a local nursery had thrown away—that looked dead to most people. Because he worked days at a can factory, Jordan often tended his garden at night. Neighbors got used to seeing one little headlight as Jordan stood on a ladder, cutting and shaping his steadily growing bushes. Gradually, the shrubs took on different shapes. Jordan then began planting trees and using zip ties, coat hangers, PVC pipe, and even his wife’s old stockings to achieve the forms he wanted. “He has a way of manipulating plants to do things he wants them to do by training, bending, wiring, and clipping,” says a neighbor, “And the plants seem to bend to his will.” Many professional gardeners are amazed by what Jordan has been able to achieve. “The garden itself was created from lack of knowledge,” says Jordan in his booming bass voice, “because I didn’t know you weren’t supposed to do this with plants. For one time in my life, ignorance paid off.” Jordan’ attention to detail and his willingness to work hard have made him a local hero. He was the fist African American to win “Yard of the Month” honor from the local garden club. And more recognition followed: articles in major newspapers and appearances on well-known TV shows. Jordan’s garden now includes about 400 species of plants and 150 shrubs in different shapes. On his front yard, four-foot-tall letters filled with bright red begonias (秋海棠) spell Love, Peace, and Goodwill. These are the principles Jordan lives by. A box for donations can be found on the property, but giving is optional. Jordan welcomes people who can’t afford to pay. He understands; he’s been there. 24. What does Jordan’s experience of building the garden tell us? A. Beggars can’t be choosers. B. A good beginning is half done. C. Where there is a will, there is a way. D. Hope for the best, but prepare for the worst. 25. What does the underlined word “manipulating” mean in paragraph 2? A. Using. B. Expecting. C. Tending. D. Controlling. 26. Which of the following words can best describe Jordan? A. Brave and hard-working B. Creative and committed. C. Passionate but careless. D. Ambitious but ignorant. 27. What can be inferred from the last paragraph? A. Jordan comes from a poor family. B. Tickets are expensive for visitors. C. It is worthwhile to pay for the visit. D. Jordan lives on donation from others. 【答案】24. C 25. D 26. B 27. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了乔丹通过创造一个独特的花园来表达他自己的价值观和信念，以及他通过努力和决心克服困难实现目标的故事。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章倒数第二段中“Jordan’ attention to detail and his willingness to work hard have made him a local hero.(乔丹对细节的关注和他努力工作的意愿使他成为当地的英雄。)”可知，乔丹是通过自己的坚持和认真使得自己的花园获奖，因此从他的建造花园的经历可知，有志者事竟成。故选C项。 25题详解】 词义猜测题。根据文章第二段中“‘He has a way of manipulating plants to do things he wants them to do by training, bending, wiring, and clipping,’ says a neighbor, ‘And the plants seem to bend to his will.’(“他有一种……植物的方法，通过训练、弯曲、布线和修剪，让它们做他想让它们做的事情，”一位邻居说，“而这些植物似乎都屈从于他的意志。”)”可知，他想让植物做他想做的，他是在“操纵、控制”植物，可推测划线单词manipulating的意思为“操纵、控制”。故选D项。 【26题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第二段中“Jordan then began planting trees and using zip ties, coat hangers, PVC pipe, and even his wife’s old stockings to achieve the forms he wanted. (然后，乔丹开始植树，并使用拉链、衣架、PVC管，甚至他妻子的旧袜子来达到他想要的形状。)”可推知，乔丹富有创造力；结合文章倒数第二段中“Jordan’ attention to detail and his willingness to work hard have made him a local hero.(乔丹对细节的关注和他努力工作的意愿使他成为当地的英雄。)”可知，乔丹尽心尽力去打造自己的花园。所以他是有创造力和尽心尽力的。故选B项。 【27题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“On his front yard, four-foot-tall letters filled with bright red begonias spell Love, Peace, and Goodwill. These are the principles Jordan lives by. A box for donations can be found on the property, but giving is optional. Jordan welcomes people who can’t afford to pay. He understands; he’s been there. (在他前院，用鲜艳的红色秋海棠花填充的四英尺高的字母组成了“爱、和平和善意”的字样。这些是乔丹生活的原则。房产上有一个捐款箱，但是捐赠是可选的。乔丹欢迎那些无法支付费用的人。他理解，他也曾经历过那样的情况。)”可知，在房子前院有一个捐款箱子，但是给钱是可选择的。这说明尽管给钱不是必须的，但参观者会认为参观花园是有价值的。故选C项。 C According to a report by South China Morning Post, China is planning to launch a hyperloop (超级高铁), also known as a super-high speed pipeline maglev system by 2035. If the project goes as planned, the new train will be the world’s fastest ground-based transport technology. Chinese authorities have announced the approval of the country’s first hyperloop line. Its length will be 175 kilometers, and it will pass between the cities of Shanghai and Hangzhou. These are two key metropolitan areas for the country’s economy, known for their large populations. The distance between these two cities can now be covered in about three hours by car or an hour by high-speed train. However, the hyperloop can reach speeds of up to 1000 km/h, which means that the route can be completed in just 15 minutes. That’s 2 times faster than commercial passenger planes and 10 times than traditional high-speed trains. The proposed project will make China one of the pioneers in hyperloop technology, allowing faster travel between several major cities. The hyperloop provides a high-security level with low energy consumption. It reduces noise and pollution levels while still being faster than commercial flights and the fastest current bullet train. The technology will further advance China’s position as a leader in transport. A super-fast hyperloop train in China has completed its first test runs. These consisted of three test runs at a superconducting maglev test line in Datong, Shanxi province that reached the speed of 50 km/h. However, the current tube available for trials measures only 2 km in length. It is expected to be extended to 60 km over the next few years. 28. What is the project about? A. Building the world’s longest rail line. B. Enlarging the passenger capacity of the train. C. Constructing the first hyperloop line in China. D. Expanding the coverage of the railway system. 29. What are the figures in paragraph 3 intended for? A. To prove the high speed of the hyperloop. B. To stress the convenience of traveling by railway. C. To state the necessity of developing high-speed trains. D. To show China ‘s great efforts to improve transport technology. 30. What does paragraph 4 mainly tell us about the project? A. Its main purposes. B. Its potential value. C. Its specific tasks. D. Its environmental benefits. 31. What is the next step of the project? A. Extending the railway line for trials. B. Increasing the length of the hyperloop trains. C. Conducting the train’s first test runs in Datong. D. Reducing noise and pollution levels of the train. 【答案】28. C 29. A 30. B 31. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是篇说明文。文章介绍了中国计划在2035年之前启动超级高铁，也被称为超高速管道磁悬浮系统。如果该项目按计划进行，新列车将成为世界上最快的地面运输技术。 【28题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“According to a report by South China Morning Post, China is planning to launch a hyperloop(超级高铁 ), also known as a super-high speed pipeline maglev system by 2035. ”（据《南华早报》报道，中国计划在2035年之前启动超级高铁，也被称为超高速管道磁悬浮系统。）可知，该项目是在中国建设第一条超级高铁。故选C。 【29题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“The distance between these two cities can now be covered in about three hours by car or an hour by high-speed train. However, the hyperloop can reach speeds of up to 1000 km/h, which means that the route can be completed in just 15 minutes. That’s 2 times faster than commercial passenger planes and 10 times than traditional high-speed trains.”（这两个城市之间的距离现在可以用大约3小时的汽车或1小时的高铁来完成；然而，超级高铁的速度可以达到1000公里/小时，这意味着这条线路可以在15分钟内完成，这比商用客机快2倍，比传统高速列车快10倍。）可知，和传统的运输技术相比，超级高铁的速度更快，故该段中的数据是为了证明超级高铁有着非常快的速度。故选A。 【30题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第四段“The proposed project will make China one of the pioneers in hyperloop technology, allowing faster travel between several major cities. The hyperloop provides a high-security level with low energy consumption. It reduces noise and pollution levels while still being faster than commercial flights and the fastest current bullet train. The technology will further advance China’s position as a leader in transport.”（这个拟建项目将使中国成为超级高铁技术的先行者之一，使几个主要城市之间的旅行速度更快。超级高铁提供了高安全性和低能耗，它降低了噪音和污染水平，同时仍然比商业航班和目前最快的子弹头列车快。这项技术将进一步提升中国在交通运输领域的领先地位。）可知，该段主要介绍了这一项目的优势和潜在价值。故选B。 【31题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“However, the current tube available for trials measures only 2 km in length. It is expected to be extended to 60 km over the next few years.”（然而，目前可供试验的轨道长度只有2公里，预计在未来几年内将延长至60公里。）可知，该项目下一步预计是在未来几年内延长可供试验的轨道。故选A。 D Medicine is not only a human invention. Many other animals have been known to self-medicate with plants and minerals for infections and other conditions. Behavioral ecologist Helen Morrogh-Bernard has spent decades studying orangutans (猩猩) and says she has now found evidence they use plants in a medicinal way. Morrogh and her colleagues watched 10 orangutans occasionally chew a particular plant (which is not part of their normal diet) into a foamy lather (泡沫) and then rub it into their fur. The apes spent up to 45 minutes at a time massaging the mixture onto their upper arms or legs. The researchers believe this behavior is the first known example using a painkiller. Local people use the same plant, Dracaena cantleyi, to treat aches and pains. Morrogh’s co-authors studied its chemistry. They added extracts (汁) from the plant to human cells that had been grown in a dish and had been artificially stimulated to produce cytokines (细胞因子) that causes inflammation (炎症) and discomfort. The plant extract reduced the production of several types of cytokines, the scientists reported the finding in a study published last November in Scientific Reports. The results suggest that orangutans use the plant to reduce inflammation and treat pain. Such findings could help identify plants and chemicals that might be useful for human medications. In creatures such as insects, the ability to self-medicate is almost certainly innate; woolly bear (灯蛾毛虫) infected with flies seek out and eat plant substances poisonous to the flies. But more complex animals may learn such tricks after an initial discovery by one member of their group. For example, an orangutan may have rubbed the plant on its skin to try to treat parasites (寄生虫) and realized that it also had a pleasant pain-killing effect. That behavior may then have been passed on to other orangutans. Because this type of self-medication is seen only in south-central Borneo, Morrogh says, it was probably learned locally. 32. Why does orangutans chew Dracaena cantleyi? A. To self medicate. B. To have their normal diet. C. To scare other animals away. D. To pass on a message to other orangutans. 33. How can the findings benefit human being? A. They can help vets treat pets. B. They can help scientists study orangutans. C. They can help botanist learn more about plants. D. They can help people find new resources for human medication. 34. Which of the following best explains the underlined word “innate” in paragraph 6? A. natural B. sociable C. obtainable D. professional 35. What is the main idea of the text? A. Apes use plant extracts to treat pain. B. Humans and animals have a lot in common. C. A plant has been found useful for human medication. D. Morrogh-Bernard and her colleagues have been observing orangutans. 【答案】32. A 33. D 34. A 35. A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章讲述了行为生态学家Helen Morrogh-Bernard发现猿类使用植物（龙血树）提取物来治疗疼痛。 【32题详解】 细节理解题。由第三段“Morrogh and her colleagues watched 10 orangutans occasionally chew a particular plant (which is not part of their normal diet) into a foamy lather (泡沫) and then rub it into their fur. The apes spent up to 45 minutes at a time massaging the mixture onto their upper arms or legs. The researchers believe this behavior is the first known example using a painkiller (Morrogh和她的同事观察了10只猩猩偶尔将一种植物（这不是它们正常饮食的一部分）咀嚼成泡沫状，然后摩擦到皮毛上。类人猿每次花45分钟在上臂或腿上按摩这种混合物。研究人员认为，这种行为是已知的第一个使用止痛药的例子)”，第四段中的“Local people use the same plant, Dracaena cantleyi, to treat aches and pains. (当地人用同一种植物龙血树来治疗疼痛)”和第五段中的“The results suggest that orangutans use the plant to reduce inflammation and treat pain. (结果表明，红毛猩猩使用这种植物来减轻炎症和治疗疼痛)”可知，红毛猩猩会咀嚼龙血树是为了减轻炎症和治疗疼痛，进行自我治疗。故选A项。 【33题详解】 细节理解题。由第五段中的“Such findings could help identify plants and chemicals that might be useful for human medications. (这些发现有助于确定可能对人类药物有用的植物和化学品)”可知，这些发现可以帮助人们找到人类药物治疗的新资源。故选D项。 【34题详解】 词句猜测题。由第六段“In creatures such as insects, the ability to self-medicate is almost certainly innate; woolly bear (灯蛾毛虫) infected with flies seek out and eat plant substances poisonous to the flies. But more complex animals may learn such tricks after an initial discovery by one member of their group. (在昆虫等生物中，自我治疗的能力几乎可以肯定是innate；感染了苍蝇的灯蛾毛虫寻找并食用对苍蝇有毒的植物物质。但更复杂的动物可能会在小组中的一名成员初步发现后学会这些技巧)”可知，感染了苍蝇的灯蛾毛虫寻找并食用对苍蝇有毒的植物物质进行自我治疗，有些动物还会学习族群内成员发现的自我治疗方法，可得出在昆虫等生物中，自我治疗的能力几乎可以肯定是“天生的(innate)”，与natural同义。故选A项。 【35题详解】 主旨大意题。由第二段“Behavioral ecologist Helen Morrogh-Bernard has spent decades studying orangutans (猩猩) and says she has now found evidence they use plants in a medicinal way.

(结果表明，红毛猩猩使用这种植物来减轻炎症和治疗疼痛)”可推知，本文讲述了行为生态学家Helen Morrogh-Bernard发现猿类使用植物(龙血树)提取物来治疗疼痛，A项“猿类使用植物提取物来治疗疼痛”符合文意。故选A项。 第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) Have you ever complained that there just aren’t enough hours in a day? Do you usually find yourself falling short on time in completing assigned tasks? ____36____ No matter how hard I tried to be focused and productive, tasks just kept piling up towards the end every day. That didn’t change until I discovered Time Blocking, since when my daily schedule has been transformed for the better. So what is it exactly? It is a simple time management technique where you divided your day into time blocks that are dedicated to specific tasks or groups of tasks. It’s a popular method to boost your productivity and allow you to focus on your tasks. ____37____ Imagine that a dozen or so tasks are due tomorrow. Like a majority of people, you open your to-do app of choice and neatly list down everything that you plan to do, and then plot some important meetings and reminders in your calendar app. ____38____ . Once you start Time Blocking, you’ll overcome this shortcoming. ____39____ The more specific you are about the task, the more focused you will be and thus, more productive. A properly organized time-blocked schedule is far more effective than any form of to-do list. ____40____It not only makes your to-do list more manageable, but also it gives you more control over your day and increases your productivity. Each task or group of tasks in a day is a small-scale goal for you to achieve within that time-frame, so you are more determined to meet deadlines and reach your goals. It also improves your focus and helps get rid of procrastination (拖延症), as you are only working on one specific task at a time. A. I used to be in the same boat. B. I believe you have encountered questions like this C. The benefits of Time Blocking are considerable. D. You work your way down the priority list and everything goes as planned. E. You can regard it as a combination of a To-do list and a Calendar schedule. F. You’ll need to be very specific about what you’re planning to do in that time block. G. While it sounds logical, it makes you jump between different kinds of tasks without focus. 【答案】36. A 37. E 38. G 39. F 40. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一种时间管理技巧“时间保护”，介绍了其操作方式以及好处。 【36题详解】 根据上文“Have you ever complained that there just aren’t enough hours in a day? Do you usually find yourself falling short on time in completing assigned tasks?(你是否曾经抱怨过一天的时间不够用？你是否经常发现自己不能按时完成分配给你的任务？)”以及后文“No matter how hard I tried to be focused and productive, tasks just kept piling up towards the end every day. That didn’t change until I discovered Time Blocking, since when my daily schedule has been transformed for the better. So what is it exactly?(无论我多么努力地保持专注和高效，每天的任务总是堆积如山。这种情况一直没有改变，直到我发现了“时间保护”，从那时起，我的日常安排就变得更好了。那么它到底是什么呢？)”可知，后文提到了作者自己也经历过时间不够用的情况，即作者以前也是时间不够用。故A选项“我以前也是这样”符合语境，故选A。 【37题详解】 根据上文“It is a simple time management technique where you divided your day into time blocks that are dedicated to specific tasks or groups of tasks. It’s a popular method to boost your productivity and allow you to focus on your tasks.(这是一种简单的时间管理技巧，你可以把一天的时间分成几个时间段，专门处理特定的任务或任务组。这是一种流行的方法，可以提高你的工作效率，让你专注于你的任务)”可知，上文介绍了一种时间管理技巧，且提到了“把一天的时间分成几个时间段，专门处理特定的任务或任务组”，即把待办事项列表和日历计划相结合，故E选项“你可以把它看作是待办事项列表和日历计划的结合”符合语境，故选E。 【38题详解】 根据上文“Imagine that a dozen or so tasks are due tomorrow. Like a majority of people, you open your to-do app of choice and neatly list down everything that you plan to do, and then plot some important meetings and reminders in your calendar app.(想象一下，明天有十几个任务要完成。像大多数人一样，你打开你选择的待办事项应用程序，整齐地列出你计划做的所有事情，然后在你的日历应用程序中安排一些重要的会议和提醒)”可知，本句为本段最后一句，应对上文的做法进行总结：这听起来合乎逻辑，但它会让你在不同的任务之间跳来跳去，无法集中注意力。故G选项“虽然这听起来合乎逻辑，但它会让你在不同的任务之间跳来跳去，无法集中注意力”符合语境，故选G。 【39题详解】 根据上文“Once you start Time Blocking, you’ll overcome this shortcoming.(一旦你开始“时间保护”，你就会克服这个缺点)”以及后文“The more specific you are about the task, the more focused you will be and thus, more productive. A properly organized time-blocked schedule is far more effective than any form of to-do list.(你的任务越具体，你就越专注，也就越有效率。一个合理安排的时间表比任何形式的任务清单都要有效得多)”可知，本句主要说明是如何通过“时间保护”克服这个缺点的，F选项中specific对应后文specific。故F选项“你需要非常具体地说明你在那段时间内计划做什么”符合语境，故选F。 【40题详解】 根据后文“It not only makes your to-do list more manageable, but also it gives you more control over your day and increases your productivity. Each task or group of tasks in a day is a small-scale goal for you to achieve within that time-frame, so you are more determined to meet deadlines and reach your goals. It also improves your focus and helps get rid of procrastination (拖延症), as you are only working on one specific task at a time.(它不仅使你的待办事项清单更易于管理，而且还能让你更好地控制你的一天，提高你的效率。一天中的每一项任务或一组任务都是你在这个时间框架内完成的一个小目标，这样你就更有决心在最后期限前完成目标。它还能提高你的注意力，帮助你摆脱拖延症，因为你一次只做一件特定的任务)”可知，本段的主旨主要关于时间保护带来的好处。故C选项“时间保护的好处是相当可观的”符合语境，故选C。 第三部分 语言运用(共两节，满分30分) 第一节 完形填空(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和D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 In my 30s, I decided to learn to ride a bike.

It was snowing heavily and the traffic inched slowly forward like snails. I was so hungry because I skipped my lunch that I decided to stop by KFC and had a quick bite before I continued my journey home. It took me a long time to find a place to park my car. With my face buried in my collar, I walked slowly in the snow. Soon my hands were numb(麻木) with cold, so I pulled my gloves out of my coat pocket and put them on. I ordered some fried chicken and dug into my pocket for my wallet to pay, only to find it was not there! I remembered I did bring it with me before I set out. Embarrassed, I left the chicken on the counter and said I would return in a minute. Deeply worried, I got out of KFC and ran towards my car, wondering where my wallet, with everything in it, was. Fresh snow was like a blank paper, recording my tracks. My attention fixed on the ground, I expected to find it on my way. Unfortunately, what I found was only the shape of it in the snow. Obviously, I lost it when I pulled my gloves out. Judging from the footprints on the ground, I was not the only one. There was someone else joining my way. But the footprints of this guy were messy. It seemed that he walked back and forth. My heart sank. At a loss of which way he went, I knew I could never claim my wallet back. Bye, fried chicken, not today. I walked towards my car helplessly. A short, skinny man was standing by my car. He seemed like homeless because he was dressed in oversized worn-out coat and his face was dirty. He was stamping his feet to keep warm. I felt sorry for him because I had nothing to help him, no money, no food. 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。 The man noticed me and asked if this was my car. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Refusing my money, he was about to leave. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】The man noticed me and asked if this was my car. Surprised as I was, I nodded, waiting for what he was going to say. He seemed excited, directly coming closer and quickly taking out a wallet, which I knew was mine at the first glance. I couldn’t stop staring at the surprising packet. I knew I wouldn’t say goodbye to my fried chicken today. But first, I need show my sincere gratitude to the good soul, who must have stayed in the cold for long just to find the owner. I opened my wallet, pulled out two banknotes and delivered to him as my thankfulness. However, he just smiled, shaking his head. Refusing my money, he was about to leave. Seeing him disappearing in the distance gradually, I finally made up my mind to stop him and asked him to wait a minute. I grabbed the money, rushed to the counter and ordered two fried chickens. On heading back, I slipped the package into his hand, inviting him to enjoy the food together. We exchanged our thoughts a lot as we were eating and laughing. It was on that night that I came to realize that there are always people who try to help others despite their own trouble. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了作者在一个雪天去买肯德基时发现钱包丢了，以为被偷，在自己车旁边看到了一个瘦削的人一直在他的车旁边走来走去，原来这个人捡起了作者的钱包，等待作者的到来并将钱包还给了他，且拒绝了作者的报酬，最后，作者买了炸鸡和他一起享用的故事。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“那个人注意到了我，问我这是不是我的车。”和第二段首句可知，第一段可描写男人将钱包还给作者，作者想要酬谢却被拒绝。 ②由第二段首句内容“他拒绝了我的钱，准备离开。”可知，第二段可描写作者买了炸鸡答谢男人。 2.续写线索：还钱包——作者惊喜——作者酬谢——拒绝离开——作者请吃炸鸡——感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①递：deliver/hand/pass ②尝试：try/attempt 情绪类 ①激动：excited/thrilled ②意外：surprised/unexpected 【点睛】[高分句型1]Surprised as I was, I nodded, waiting for what he was going to say.(含有让步状语从句的倒装结构，现在分词作状语和what引导的宾语从句) [高分句型2]It was on that night that I came to realize that there are always people who try to help others despite their own trouble.(含强调句型和that引导的宾语从句和who引导的定语从句) 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
