After spending almost a year and a half in near-total isolation some 230 feet underground, Beatriz Flamini emerged from a cave in southern Spain and asked:Who's buying the beer?
The climber and mountaineer had entered the cave in Granada on Nov.21, 2021, determined to spend 500 days alone—monitored from afar by a group of scientists—to explore the effects of isolation on the human body and mind.
Flamini was 48 years old when she went down, and 50 when she officially completed the challenge on Friday.
After resurfacing, Flamini embraced supporters, met with her doctors and spent nearly an hour talking to the reporters who had gathered outside.She told them she was ready for a drink and a shower but could have stayed in the cave longer.
Flamini's team says she spent her days reading, drawing, exercising, knitting wooly hats and recording herself with two GoPros.Spanish production company Dokumalia plans to turn her experience into a documentary, NBC reports.
Flamini said she'd lost track of time after about two months in the cave, and thought she had only been in there for some 160 or 170 days.She described the experience as “superb, matchless”, telling reporters that she never even considered hitting the panic button.“In fact, I didn't want to come out,” she said.
Flamini's months in the cave were spent in silence and solitude but not without remote supervision.Before going underground, she told her team not to contact her under any circumstances, even a family member's death.
“If it's no communication, it's no communication regardless of the circumstances,” she said according to NBC News.“The people who know me knew and respected that.”
A technical problem forced Flamini to briefly pause the challenge around Day 300, the Associated Press reports.She spent eight days in a tent, without making contact with anyone, before returning to the cave.
24.Why did Flamini decide to live in the cave?
A.To experience a new life style in a cave.
B.To test the limit on human living in caves.
C.To investigate how isolation affects human.
D.To break the record of living underground.
25.What did Flamini do in the cave?
A.She made a documentary.
B.She knitted wooly sweaters.
C.She worked out on her own.
D.She used GoPros to track time.
26.What did Flamini think of her stay in the cave?
A.It was panic but fulfilling.
B.It was long but rewarding.
C.It was unbearable but valuable.
D.It was awesome and unbeatable.
27.What does the underlined word “solitude” probably mean?
A.Being alone.
B.Being excited.
C.Being independent.
D.Being self-disciplined.
C
The Earth's ozone (臭氧) layer is on its way to recovering, thanks to decades of work to get rid of ozone-damaging chemicals, a panel of international experts backed by the United Nations has found.
The ozone layer serves an important function for living things on Earth.This shield in the stratosphere (平流层) protects humans and the environment from harmful levels of the sun's radiation.
The international community was alarmed after experts discovered a hole in the ozone layer in May 1985.Scientists had previously discovered that chemicals, used in manufacturing certain sprays and used as refrigerants (制冷剂), could destroy ozone.Two years after the discovery of the dreadful state of the ozone layer, international bodies adopted a global agreement called the Montreal Protocol.This established the phaseout (逐步淘汰) of almost 100 man-made chemicals that were tied to the destruction of the all-important ozone.
In the latest report on the progress of the Montreal Protocol, the UN-backed panel confirmed that nearly 99% of banned ozone-eating substances have been phased out.If current policies stay in place, the ozone layer is expected to recover to 1980 values by 2040, the United Nations announced.In some places, it may take longer.Experts said that 1980-level recovery over Antarctica is expected by around 2066 and by 2045 over the Arctic.
The destruction of the ozone layer is not a major cause of climate change.But research is showing that these efforts to save the ozone layer are proving beneficial in the fight against climate change.“Ozone action is a pioneer for climate action,” said World Meteorological Organization Secretary-General Petteri Taalas.“Our success in phasing out ozone-eating chemicals shows us that what can and must be done—as a matter of urgency—to shift away from fossil fuels, reduce greenhouse gases and so limit temperature increase.”
28.Why did the international community start to protect the ozone layer?
A.Because the Montreal Protocol was signed.
B.Because chemicals could destroy the ozone layer.
C.Because a hole in the ozone layer was discovered.
D.Because the stratosphere is harmful to human health.
29.Which of the following can NOT help protect the ozone layer?
A.Using less hair-setting spray.
B.Increasing refrigerant production.
C.Minimizing the use of cold air-conditioner.
D.Phasing out ozone-consuming substances.
30.What's the main idea of Paragraph 4?
A.The Montreal Protocol is taking effect.
B.The ozone layer will fully recover by 2040.
C.The Montreal Protocol needs to be improved.
D.The ozone layer protection has a long way to go.
31.What can be inferred from Petteri Taalas' words?
A.Climate protection has led to the ozone protection.
B.The destruction of ozone layer didn't cause climate change.
C.It's an urgency to reduce the use of ozone-eating chemicals.
D.Ozone protection guides our future efforts in climate action.
D
It isn't just the beauty of vast natural wonders like the Grand Canyon that can take your breath away.You can find awe in everyday things.A new research, published in the journal Emotion, found that older adults who took “awe walks” felt more positive emotions in their daily lives.
In the study, 52 older adults aged 60 to 90 were divided randomly into two groups.They were told to take at least one 15-minute walk each week for eight weeks.Volunteers in the “awe group” were instructed in how to inspire awe as they walked.“We asked them to try to see the world with fresh eyes—to take in new details of a leaf or flower, for example,” Sturm says.For example, one participant from the awe group wrote about “the beautiful fall colors and how the leaves were no longer crunchy (嘎吱响) underfoot because of the rain”—the wonder that small children feel as they embrace their expanding world.However, people in the other group were less focused on the world around them.One participant wrote, “I thought about our vacation in Hawaii next Thursday.”
In addition, participants were asked to take selfies(自拍) in the beginning, middle, and end of each walk.Researchers found that participants who took awe walks showed a “small self”, in that they filled less of their photographs with their own image and more with the background scenery.“When we feel awe, our attention shifts from focusing on ourselves to focusing on the world around us,” Sturm says.“Awe affects our social relationships because it helps us to feel more connected with the world, universe, and other people.” Their smiles also grew broader by the end of the study.“We analyzed the intensity of their smiles in the selfies, and participants who took awe walks displayed greater smiles over time than those who took control walks.The former reported greater positive emotions in general, including more joy and gratitude.”
Participants in the control group took more frequent walks than those people in the awe group, the researchers discovered.But walking more didn't result in positive changes in emotional health or in the way their selfies were taken.This suggests that the results were mainly due to experiencing awe, and not just in spending time exercising.
32.What were participants in the “awe group” required to do in Paragraph 2?
A.To take a walk each week.
B.To focus on their inner world.
C.To collect leaves after the rain.
D.To explore with childlike curiosity.
33.What can we see in the selfies from the awe walks?
A.Close-up images with wide smiles.
B.More attention on themselves.
C.Simply the background scenery.
D.Small figures with bigger smiles.
34.What can we know from the last paragraph?
A.Experiencing awe counts.
B.More walks, more joy.
C.Exercise can benefit us.
D.Awe comes with walking.
35.Which of the following can be the best title?
A.Awe Walks Promote Your Physical Fitness
B.Experiencing Awe Does Wonders for Everyone
C.Awe Walks Improve Your Positive Emotions
D.Frequent Walks Contribute to Emotional Health
第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)
根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Accept Tricky Feelings
Imagine that you only felt so-called positive feelings, like excitement, joy and safety.__36__.Being human means we experience various emotions, even painful or uncomfortable ones.Accepting them is important and can improve your well-being.
Do you notice uncomfortable feelings?
When you accept that difficult emotions are normal and temporary, you're often able to cope with them.Psychologists have found that people who allow themselves to feel a range of emotions, including painful ones, are often more at peace than people who try to avoid or push uncomfortable feelings away.__37__.
Does that mean all behaviour is OK?
If you allow yourself to feel angry, for example, that doesn't mean you can throw things around or behave unkindly.Anita Garai, a well-being teacher and author of Being with Our Feelings, says that if we allow ourselves to feel painful emotions,including anger, it's less likely these feelings will boil over and result in unpleasant actions.“__38__,” she says.“By listening to them, you can learn more about your needs and choose the best way to respond.”
__39__?
Garai suggests the first step is to notice and examine the uncomfortable feeling in your body.“Where in your body can you feel it? Is it still or moving? Can you describe the movement?” she says.It may be that the feeling reminds you of a colour, shape, sound or texture.“By paying attention to the feeling in this way, it's less likely that you'll ignore it,” explains Garai.__40__.Many people find it comforting and inspiring to read about characters who accept, manage and overcome tricky emotions.
A.Another tool is to read
B.You may feel it's like a wonderland
C.It might sound great but it's unrealistic
D.Do you examine the tricky feelings in your body
E.How can you learn to accept uncomfortable feelings
F.Uncomfortable feelings actually help to keep us well
G.By noticing tricky feelings and allowing them to exist, you are being kind to yourself

M:I'm quite often asked how I became a dress designer.For me,it was something I always wanted to do.However,because my mother was a university teacher and my father was a doctor,they found it hard to accept that designing clothes could be a serious job.
Anyway,they said I had to do a year's business course first after high school.I didn't like it at the time,but later,it made a big difference to me.And the other thing I did during that year was to get a part-time job in the office of a small factory making good quality clothes.
Then I did two years at the local art college.I wanted to go to London straight away,but my parents insisted.So I stayed at home until I won a prize for a design which actually gave me a place at a London college for nine months.I went on to spend three wonderful years in Milan.Then I got the job in New York for a year,which was really exciting,but unbelievably stressful.I think it is probably because I was too far away from my family and missed them very much.So,I ended up in London,starting my own company.

【语篇解读】 本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了48岁的Flamini与世隔绝,独自进入山洞500天的故事。
24.C 细节理解题。根据第二段内容可知,Flamini决定住在洞穴是为了探索与世隔绝对人身心的影响。
25.C 细节理解题。根据第五段的“Flamini's team says she spent her days reading, drawing, exercising, knitting wooly hats and recording herself with two GoPros.”可知,Flamini在洞穴中自己锻炼。
26.D 推理判断题。根据第六段中“She described the experience as ‘superb, matchless’, telling reporters that she never even considered hitting the panic button.‘In fact, I didn't want to come out,’ she said.”推知,Flamini认为她在洞穴里的经历是非常好的,无与伦比。
27.A 词义猜测题。根据画线词后文“Before going underground, she told her team not to contact her under any circumstances, even a family member's death.”可知,Flamini进入洞穴前让团队成员不要联系她。由此可知,她在洞穴里处于独居无交流的状态。由此猜测solitude意为“独自一人”。
C
【语篇解读】 本文是一篇说明文。臭氧层作为地球的“保护伞”,通过吸收紫外线,极大地降低了我们患皮肤疾病的可能性。可早在1985年,就有专家发现臭氧层存在一个“大洞”。这直接威胁到了人类的健康与安危,国际社会也一度陷入恐慌。但近来联合国专家的最新研究表明,由于近几十年来各国应对得当,臭氧层即将迎来“自我康复”。
28.C 细节理解题。根据第三段的“The international community was alarmed after experts discovered a hole in the ozone layer in May 1985...Two years after the discovery of the dreadful state of the ozone layer, international bodies adopted a global agreement called the Montreal Protocol.”可知,国际社会开始保护臭氧层是因为专家在臭氧层发现了一个洞。
29.B 细节理解题。根据第三段的“Scientists had previously discovered that chemicals, used in manufacturing certain sprays and used as refrigerants (制冷剂), could destroy ozone.”可知,用作制冷剂的化学物质对臭氧层有害。由此可知,增加制冷剂的产量不能保护臭氧层。
30.A 段落大意题。根据第四段中“In the latest report on the progress of the Montreal Protocol, the UN-backed panel confirmed that nearly 99% of banned ozone-eating substances have been phased out.”可知,本段主要介绍保护臭氧层的《蒙特利尔议定书》正在起作用。

32.D 推理判断题。根据第二段第五句可推知,“敬畏组”的参与者需要在散步时带着孩子般的好奇心去探索世界。故选D。
33.D 细节理解题。根据第三段第二句以及倒数第三句可知,“敬畏组”人员在散步的自拍中,自己的身体占据的画面更小,而脸上的笑容更大。由此可知,我们在“敬畏组”人员的自拍照中可以看到人们小小的身形和灿烂的微笑。故选D。
34.A 推理判断题。通读最后一段尤其是“This suggests that ...spending time exercising.可推知,让情绪变积极的主要原因是人们在这个过程中体验了敬畏感,即体验敬畏感很重要。故选A。
35.C 标题归纳题。通读全文可知,文章主要介绍一项新研究发现,带着敬畏之心散步的人在日常生活中会拥有更积极的情绪。由此可推知,C项“带着敬畏之心散步会提高你的积极情绪”可以概括文章大意,是本文的最佳标题。故选C。
第二节
【语篇解读】 本文是一篇说明文。生而为人总是会有各种感受,积极的、消极的都有。我们要学会接受和正确处理消极的感受。
36.C 根据上文“Imagine that you only felt so-called positive feelings, like excitement, joy and safety.”并结合本文让我们接受不好的情绪推知,空处内容与上文为转折关系,指出只感受到积极情绪是不现实的。C项符合语境,“It”指代上文提到的内容。
37.G 空处位于段末,应承接上文。根据上文“Psychologists have found that people who allow themselves to feel a range of emotions, including painful ones, are often more at peace than people who try to avoid or push uncomfortable feelings away.”推知,空处应继续陈述让自己感受痛苦情绪的好处。G项符合语境,承接上文。

39.E 空处为本段小标题,结合上文几个小标题都是问句推知,空处也是一个高度概括的问句。根据下文“Garai suggests the first step is to notice and examine the uncomfortable feeling in your body.‘Where in your body can you feel it? Is it still or moving? Can you describe the movement?’ she says.It may be that the feeling reminds you of a colour, shape, sound or texture.‘By paying attention to the feeling in this way, it's less likely that you'll ignore it,’ explains Garai.”可知,本段主要主要介绍如何接受不舒服的感觉。E项符合本段主旨,可以作为小标题。
40.A 根据上文“Garai suggests the first step is to notice and examine the uncomfortable feeling in your body.”推知,空处应介绍第二步或第二个方法应该做什么。A项符合题意,且引出下文“Many people find it comforting and inspiring to read about characters who accept, manage and overcome tricky emotions.”。

【参考范文】
Dear_Andrew,
I have signed up for a voluntary activity themed “Trash Sorting,All Involved” and won't be able to accompany you to the library this weekend as planned.I feel terribly sorry and want to express my deepest apology.
As you know,we students should spare no efforts in implementing the policy of garbage classification.So,I seized this opportunity without hesitation.On that day,we will go to communities to publicize the significance as well as methods of trash sorting and direct the residents to accurately distinguish different kinds of rubbish,which will take a whole day.Considering that,I'm afraid I can't keep my word.Shall we put it off till next Sunday?
I am sorry for any inconvenience caused and hope you can accept my heartfelt apology.
Yours,
Li_Hua
