Sheep are stupid, right? At least that’s what people believed for a long time. However, our opinions on the IQ of sheep have changed. It is found that sheep are surprisingly clever. In fact, they have an IQ level similar to that of cows and chickens and a little below that of pigs.
Sheep can recognize (辨别出) colors and shapes. They have some level of object permanence. This means that if you cover up food in front of a sheep, the sheep knows the food is still there, even though it can no longer see the food. By comparison, human babies don’t develop object permanence until around 8 months old.
Sheep are also very good at recognizing different faces. Their sense of sight allows them to recognize photos of sheep and other animals. And the ability to recognize faces extends to humans as well. They are able to recognize their owners, including in photos.
They can also use their sense of smell to learn about the world around them. This helps sheep find favorite foods and tell foods that may make them sick. A sheep can also use its sense of smell to tell the sheep it knows from strangers.
Part of what makes sheep so clever is their social interaction (社交). These animals can use different sounds to communicate different things, just like people, cats, dogs, and pigs do. Sheep are born with the ability to learn from watching others. For example, baby sheep that have never been bottle fed learn it quickly after watching others being fed.
All in all, sheep are far more clever than we thought. Science is improving our knowledge of sheep and their ability to learn.
28. Which of the following animals has the highest IQ according to the passage?
A. B. C. D.
29. Which shows that a baby has developed object permanence?
A. He divides his favorite toys into several groups. B. He recognizes his favorite toys by their shapes.
C. He uses his hands to touch and feel different toys. D. He knows his toy is in a box even if he can’t see it.
30. What does the underlined part “extends to” in Paragraph 3 mean?
A. Include. B. Guide. C. Carry. D. Touch.
31. What does Paragraph 5 mainly talk about?
A. Sheep’s communication skills are similar to those of us.
B. Watching others is a good way for animals to learn.
C. Sheep’s social interaction makes them bright animals.
D. Sheep’s natural ability to learn helps keep them alive.
【答案】28. D 29. D 30. A 31. C

29题详解】
推理判断题。根据“They have some level of object permanence. This means that if you cover up food in front of a sheep, the sheep knows the food is still there, even though it can no longer see the food.”可知,以羊为例,具有客体永恒性就意味着,如果你在羊面前盖上食物,羊知道食物还在那里,即使它再也看不见食物了。由此类比可知婴儿已经形成了客体永恒性的表现是即使看不见,他也知道他的玩具在盒子里。故选D。
【30题详解】
词义猜测题。根据“Their sense of sight allows them to recognize photos of sheep and other animals. And the ability to recognize faces extends to humans as well. They are able to recognize their owners, including in photos.”可知,羊能够识别羊和其他动物的照片,并且它们也能够认出自己的主人,包括在照片中。由此可知羊能识别的不同面孔中也包括人类,“extends to”是include“包括”的意思。故选A。

Reading people’s mind seems to be a supernatural power that can only be seen in movies. But scientists have made it possible to translate people’s brain waves!
Researchers at the University of California developed a new device (设备). It can turn brain waves into words on a screen in front of the users. In the study, they tested it on a disabled man. “To our knowledge, this is the first successful show of direct decoding (解码) of full words from the brain of someone who is disabled and cannot speak,” said Edward Chang, one of the researchers of the study. Each year, many people lose the ability to speak because of accidents or diseases. With up to 93 percent of accuracy, the new device shows “strong promise” to let these people fully communicate in the future.
One problem with such mind-reading machines, however, is that electrodes (电板) are needed to be put into people’s brains. ▲ . But scientists from another university have taken steps to change this. They tried to translate people’s thoughts without even touching their heads. The new technology is called FMRI. It’s a safer way of “reading” brain activity. Active brain cells have more oxygen. Scientists can translate brain activity with the help of it.
The team asked the people who took part in the study to listen to 16 hours of radio shows while their brains were scanned. Then they used a computer algorithm (算法) to create a story based on the FMRI recording. It matched the radio shows pretty well. In other tests, the algorithm could basically explain the story of a silent movie that people watched. It could even retell a story that people imagined in their heads. Although it’s not a word-for-word translation, the technology provides many possibilities.
36. The underlined word “they” refers to ______.
A. brain waves B. the users C. the researchers D. the devices
37. Which sentence can be put in the ▲ ?
A. It’s not convenient and has health risks B. It’s expensive and people can’t buy it in many places
C. It can read people’s mind faster D. It’s smaller in size and hard to put in people’s brain
38. What is the best structure of this passage?
A. B. C. D.
39. What’s the purpose of writing the passage?
A. To show us that technologies can read your mind now.
B. To suggest that all disabled people should do more research.
C. To tell us that translation technology still needs time to develop.
D. To let people know about a new computer algorithm.
【答案】36. C 37. A 38. B 39. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章通过介绍两项研究告诉大家:科学家已成功解码脑电波,“读心术”已成真。
【36题详解】
词义猜测题。根据“Researchers at the University of California developed a new device (设备)...In the study, they tested it on a disabled man.”可知,加利福尼亚大学的研究人员开发了一种新设备,并在研究中对一名残疾男子进行了测试。由此可知“they”指代加利福尼亚大学的研究人员。故选C。

VI. 任务型阅读.(65-67 小题每题 2 分,68 ⼩题 3 分,共 9 分)
“Lying down” (also known as tang ping), has become a hot word among young Chinese people these days. The idea of low material needs and being willing to accept whatever life gives them is described as a “lying down” lifestyle.
Some young people complain that to raise a child needs too much money and they often get into a fight with their family. At the same time, the rising living costs including food and housing have pushed them so hard that they could hardly breathe. Some want to lie down because their tiring jobs, competition with peers, as well as personal relationships force them to run away.
On the other hand, with the great improvement of living conditions, it is true that some Chinese youth today have lost the spirit of fighting hard for a better life. “I stay at home, sleep and watch TV series, and I’m pleased with what I have now. Actually, there are many people around me who value happiness and freedom most,” said Daisy, who left her job two weeks ago. No wonder that some young people would choose to live a simple way instead of always following the good quality of fighting hard.
Interestingly, most young people, who are “big fans” of the “lying down” lifestyle, point out that they only accept a temporary (暂时的) lying down as a short rest. In fact, lying down is not totally comfortable for them. Most young people who lie down always regard it as a lack of ambition (雄心壮志) and feel ashamed (感到羞耻的) about it.
“Young people have both ambition and confusion (困惑) about their future, but most of us have refused to waste chances and challenges,” a college student said.
45. Do most young people really enjoy the “lying down” lifestyle according to the passage?
______________________________________
46. What is a “lying-down” lifestyle?
______________________________________
47. Why do some young Chinese choose to “lie down” according to the passage?
______________________________________
48. Do you think the “lying down” lifestyle is the best way to deal with difficulties in your life? Why or why not?
______________________________________
【答案】45. No./No they don’t.
46. It is the idea of low material needs and being willing to accept whatever life gives people.
47. 1) The rising living costs and their pressure from jobs and personal relationships have pushed them so hard.
2) Some youth have lost the spirit of fighting hard for a better life with the great improvement of living conditions.
48. No. Because young people should have ambition and face the reality, don’t waste chances and accept challenges.(答案不唯一)
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇议论文。在这个快节奏、竞争激烈的社会中,许多年轻人渴望暂停下来喘口气,因此选择“躺平”,作者就这一现象,进行了分析,但是他们大多数人都不想浪费机会和挑战,也不会放下自己的责任。
【45题详解】
根据第四段“…Most young people who lie down always regard it as a lack of ambition (雄心壮志) and feel ashamed (感到羞耻的) about it.”可知,大多数年轻人不喜欢“躺着”的生活方式。故填No./ No, they don’t.
【46题详解】
根据第一段中“The idea of low material needs and being willing to accept whatever life gives them is described as a “lying down” lifestyle.”可知,“躺着”的生活方式是低物质需求和愿意接受生活赋予他们的一切的想法。故填It is the idea of low material needs and being willing to accept whatever life gives people.
【47题详解】
根据第二段中“… the rising living costs including food and housing have pushed them so hard that they could hardly breathe. Some want to lie down because their tiring jobs, competition with peers, as well as personal relationships force them to run away.”和第三段“On the other hand, with the great improvement of living conditions, it is true that some Chinese youth today have lost the spirit of fighting hard for a better life.”可知,一些年轻的中国人会选择“躺下”是因为两个原因:(1) 不断上涨的生活成本以及他们来自工作和人际关系的压力使他们倍感压力。(2) 随着生活条件的极大改善,一些年轻人失去了为美好生活而努力奋斗的精神。故填(1) The rising living costs and their pressure from jobs and personal relationships have pushed them so hard. (2) Some youth have lost the spirit of fighting hard for a better life with the great improvement of living conditions.
【48题详解】
根据最后两段“Most young people who lie down always regard it as a lack of ambition (雄心壮志) and feel ashamed (感到羞耻的) about it…”可知,作为新时代的年轻人,应该有雄心壮志,面对现实,不要浪费机会,接受挑战。故填No. Because young people should have ambition and face the reality, don’t waste chances and accept challenges.(本题是开放性题目,回答合理即可。)
VII.根据要求完成句子,每空⼀词.(每空 1 分,共 10 分)

【55题详解】
句意:为了解决你的烦恼,你首先要做的就是相信自己。根据本段的标题“Being confident and patient”可知,本段说的是要有自信和耐心,所以本句说的是要相信自己,句子主语是“you”,所以此处指的是yourself“你自己”。故填yourself。
【56题详解】
句意:另一件重要的事是要有耐心。根据本段的标题“Being confident and patient”可知,本段说的是要有自信和耐心,结合“All things are difficult before they are easy, so take your time.”可知,此处说的是要有耐心,patient“耐心的”,在句中作表语。故填patient。

Sheep are stupid, right? At least that’s what people believed for a long time. However, our opinions on the IQ of sheep have changed. It is found that sheep are surprisingly clever. In fact, they have an IQ level similar to that of cows and chickens and a little below that of pigs.
Sheep can recognize (辨别出) colors and shapes. They have some level of object permanence. This means that if you cover up food in front of a sheep, the sheep knows the food is still there, even though it can no longer see the food. By comparison, human babies don’t develop object permanence until around 8 months old.
Sheep are also very good at recognizing different faces. Their sense of sight allows them to recognize photos of sheep and other animals. And the ability to recognize faces extends to humans as well. They are able to recognize their owners, including in photos.
They can also use their sense of smell to learn about the world around them. This helps sheep find favorite foods and tell foods that may make them sick. A sheep can also use its sense of smell to tell the sheep it knows from strangers.
Part of what makes sheep so clever is their social interaction (社交). These animals can use different sounds to communicate different things, just like people, cats, dogs, and pigs do. Sheep are born with the ability to learn from watching others. For example, baby sheep that have never been bottle fed learn it quickly after watching others being fed.
All in all, sheep are far more clever than we thought. Science is improving our knowledge of sheep and their ability to learn.
28. Which of the following animals has the highest IQ according to the passage?
A. B. C. D.
29. Which shows that a baby has developed object permanence?
A. He divides his favorite toys into several groups. B. He recognizes his favorite toys by their shapes.
C. He uses his hands to touch and feel different toys. D. He knows his toy is in a box even if he can’t see it.
30. What does the underlined part “extends to” in Paragraph 3 mean?
A. Include. B. Guide. C. Carry. D. Touch.
31. What does Paragraph 5 mainly talk about?
A. Sheep’s communication skills are similar to those of us.
B. Watching others is a good way for animals to learn.
C. Sheep’s social interaction makes them bright animals.
D. Sheep’s natural ability to learn helps keep them alive.

Yesterday my son Bill was sick. I picked up his sister Anna from school and decided to run to the supermarket for a few things. I had hoped to finish my shopping in a hurry and then went back home as quickly as possible.
I found just one person ahead of me and began organizing my things. After that, I looked up to see that the person ahead of me was an elderly woman. She was paying for her things with change slowly. I watched the young employee(员工)helping the woman count her change and so carefully taking it from her shaking hands. Then I heard him repeatedly saying “yes, mam” to her. When she asked if she had enough to buy a bag, he told her she did and went two lines over to get one for her, patiently.

Reading people’s mind seems to be a supernatural power that can only be seen in movies. But scientists have made it possible to translate people’s brain waves!
Researchers at the University of California developed a new device (设备). It can turn brain waves into words on a screen in front of the users. In the study, they tested it on a disabled man. “To our knowledge, this is the first successful show of direct decoding (解码) of full words from the brain of someone who is disabled and cannot speak,” said Edward Chang, one of the researchers of the study. Each year, many people lose the ability to speak because of accidents or diseases. With up to 93 percent of accuracy, the new device shows “strong promise” to let these people fully communicate in the future.
One problem with such mind-reading machines, however, is that electrodes (电板) are needed to be put into people’s brains. ▲ . But scientists from another university have taken steps to change this. They tried to translate people’s thoughts without even touching their heads. The new technology is called FMRI. It’s a safer way of “reading” brain activity. Active brain cells have more oxygen. Scientists can translate brain activity with the help of it.
The team asked the people who took part in the study to listen to 16 hours of radio shows while their brains were scanned. Then they used a computer algorithm (算法) to create a story based on the FMRI recording. It matched the radio shows pretty well. In other tests the algorithm could basically explain the story of a silent movie that people watched. It could even retell a story that people imagined in their heads. Although it’s not a word-for-word translation, the technology provides many possibilities.
36. The underlined word “they” refers to ______.
A. brain waves B. the users C. the researchers D. the devices
37. Which sentence can be put in the ▲ ?
A. It’s not convenient and has health risks B. It’s expensive and people can’t buy it in many places
C. It can read people’s mind faster D. It’s smaller in size and hard to put in people’s brain
38. What is the best structure of this passage?
A. B. C. D.
39. What’s the purpose of writing the passage?
A. To show us that technologies can read your mind now.
B. To suggest that all disabled people should do more research.
C. To tell us that translation technology still needs time to develop.
D. To let people know about a new computer algorithm.

“Lying down” (also known as tang ping), has become a hot word among young Chinese people these days. The idea of low material needs and being willing to accept whatever life gives them is described as a “lying down” lifestyle.
Some young people complain that to raise a child needs too much money and they often get into a fight with their family. At the same time, the rising living costs including food and housing have pushed them so hard that they could hardly breathe. Some want to lie down because their tiring jobs, competition with peers, as well as personal relationships force them to run away.
On the other hand, with the great improvement of living conditions, it is true that some Chinese youth today have lost the spirit of fighting hard for a better life. “I stay at home, sleep and watch TV series, and I’m pleased with what I have now. Actually, there are many people around me who value happiness and freedom most,” said Daisy, who left her job two weeks ago. No wonder that some young people would choose to live a simple way instead of always following the good quality of fighting hard.
Interestingly, most young people, who are “big fans” of the “lying down” lifestyle, point out that they only accept a temporary (暂时的) lying down as a short rest. In fact, lying down is not totally comfortable for them. Most young people who lie down always regard it as a lack of ambition (雄心壮志) and feel ashamed (感到羞耻的) about it.
“Young people have both ambition and confusion (困惑) about their future but most of us have refused to waste chances and challenges,” a college student said.
45. Do most young people really enjoy the “lying down” lifestyle according to the passage?
