A. energy-saving B. detective work C. music performance D. space exploration 22. What does the “Learn To Play Ukulele” program offer to the earliest arrivals? A. Ukuleles for use. B. Musicians to choose from. C. High-energy games to play. D. Opportunities for front- row seats. 23. Where is the text most likely from? A A local school newsletter. B. A public library website. C. A regional tourism guide. D. A city government report. B “Are we alone in the universe? That’s the key question we’re trying to answer here,” Meenakshi Wadhwa, a planetary scientist, tells her class. As she explains, one student takes notes while another holds up an iPhone to take a photo of the slides. In many ways this lecture hall at Arizona State University is like any other. A group of enthusiastic women sit attentively in the front row; the men are spread out in the back. But the hearing aids suggest how unusual this class is. Mirabella, a 20- storey “university retirement community” on ASU’s campus, is home to over 300 retired people. When it was opened in 2020, the senior-living facility was nearly fully subscribed. Most residents are having a ball. They can attend the same classes and cultural events as students, but with the distinct benefit of not having to take exams. In their dorms, facilities include an art studio, a pool and gym, and a games room. Only the second floor feels institutional, with a memory- care centre and rooms for residents who need round- the- clock attention. This is part of a wider trend. An estimated 85 colleges in America are now connected to senior living communities. With more than 10,000 baby boomers (生育高峰期出生的人) in America turning 65 every day, the opportunity for alternative forms of retirement is large. Compared with previous generations, boomers are wealthy, educated and picky. They want to remain active and not locked away. These wishes can all be met on a university campus. For universities, welcoming pensioners (领退休金者) can make sense too. Nationally, undergraduate enrolment dropped from over 18m in 2010 to below 16m in 2022. As for what to do with the extra space, the smartest ones, Andrew Carle at Georgetown University says, provide a continuum of care — including for the very last stage of life. “The charity is the icing on the cake,” he says of the potential that residents will include universities in their wills. 24. How does the writer introduce the topic? A. By raising a question. B. By making a comparison. C. By offering an explanation. D. By giving a description. 25. Why are university retirement communities well- received? A. They provide free medical car B. They have various research facilities. C. They allow students to take exams flexibly. D. They help seniors live an active and engaging life. 26. How can universities benefit from integrating senior living communities? A. It improves university teaching programs. B. It addresses the university enrolment decline. C. It draws public attention to university education. D. It earns universities the fame for caring for seniors. 27. What is the text mainly about? A. Different forms of retirement. B. The education welfare of pensioners. C. The trend of retiring on college campuses. D. A new way for universities to make profits. C It’s the season for friends, family and cheese holiday movies. Whether you’ re a fan of Christmas classics or prefer streamable and made-for-TV specials, there’s always a reason holiday movie s are so popular — even the most predictable. “In fact, this is what keeps us coming back. You would almost be disappointed if they weren’t a little predictable,” says Dr. Pamela Rutledge, a media psychologist. “It’s not like there’s going to be a heart-stopping surprise waiting to catch you off guard.” And while the plot of a city girl meeting a hometown guy is overused, Rutledge says these romantic holiday movies satisfy our inner desire for social connection and provide our brain with the confidence to anticipate something and have that be the case. The holiday season itself can be stressful, making these movies an easy go - to for relaxation during a busy time of year. “These movies can act as ‘cinema therapy,’ when you can relax with your friends,” says Allison Eden, associate professor of communication at Michigan State. “You don’t have to work too hard to enjoy it. They’re just gentle comforting, feel-good movies that can really help, especially during times of stress.” The most stressed you’ll feel during most holiday movies? A silly, low- conflict misunderstanding between love interests that you know will be resolved by the end. “The brain responds to that whole journey with both the dopamine (多巴胺) of reward of having it turn out like you wanted to, but also the oxytocin (催产素) release when you’re talking about feelings of warmth and connection and love. So sort of a win - win,” Rutledge says. If you think you can find the same win - win in other forms of media, it may be harder than you think. People often use social media as a way to escape, for example, but it’s not always the pick- me- up you may be looking for. With social media, you really never know what you’re going to come up against. 28. What contribute most to the popularity of holiday movies? A. Predictable plots. B. Appealing themes. C. Unexpected endings. D. Romantic elements. 29. What does the underlined phrase “cinema therapy” in paragraph 3 refer to? A. A call for easy work. B. A form of stress relief. C. A chance to enjoy movies. D. A way to develop friendship. 30. Why does Rutledge view holiday movies as sort of a win-win? A. They enhance our brain function. B. They provide a comforting escape. C. They offer emotional satisfaction. D. They assist in resolving low conflicts. 31. What is the writer’s purpose in writing the text? A. To call on people to watch holiday movies. B To introduce the features of holiday movies. C. To explain why your brain loves holiday movies. D. To compare holiday movies with other forms of media. D Rare is the CEO who praises the virtues of a lie- in. According to one survey, two- thirds of the CEOs of large American companies are up by 6 o’ clock; for average Americans the share is less than one in three. For future corporate leaders, the message seems clear: you snooze (打盹), you lose. Bartleby has no such ambitions. But he’s experimented with early starts, and found they not only bring the sense of satisfaction that comes from arriving before your editor. Inboxes can be cleared and tricky problems solved before the flood of emails and meetings, leaving you feeling well prepared for the day ahead. Early birds are certainly held in higher regard. Rolling into the office late is unacceptable in most workplaces. A study published in 2022 found night owls (猫头鹰) were perceived by respondents as being “lazy”, “undisciplined” and “immature”. Rising early is not, though, all upside. Those ready to receive work when the boss arrives may be given more of it. If the early bird gets the worm, the clever worm stays in bed. Urgent tasks often come up during the day, meaning early arrivals may end up working just as late as other colleagues. Waking before sun rise also risks turning you into a bore. Some early risers cannot resist describing how much they get done while night owls hit the snooze button. Others go home early rather than socialize. Night owls by contrast, let loose. In the eyes of many, late nights are the preserve of youth, while early mornings are seen as for the elderly. Efforts to change your circadian (昼夜节律的) rhythm are likely to end in disappointment, as it is largely a product of genes. Perhaps the best advice is to stop worrying about your body clock. Most people are neither early birds nor night owls, but in between, struggling both in the morning and late evening. That is why most offices operate between 9 and 5— and why they ought to have break rooms. 32. Why does the writer mention the survey in paragraph 1? A. To illustrate the harmful effects of snoozing. B. To praise the healthy sleeping habit of the CEOs. C. To tell the difference between CEOs and average workers. D. To show the possible link between early rising and success. 33. What does paragraph 2 focus on? A. The feelings of early risers. B. The challenges on a workday. C. The benefits of getting up early. D. The preparations before work. 34. What can be a downside of being an early bird? A. Poor public image. B. Increased workload. C. Hug e social pressure. D. Decreased productivity. 35. Which of the following is the best title for the text? A. Why Do CEOs Prefer Early Mornings? B. How Can We Change Our Body Clock? C. What Is the Science Behind Early Rising? D. Is It Better to Be an Early Bird or a Night Owl? 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能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Boxing has been practiced for centuries— it was even one of the sports in the original Olympic Games in ancient Greece. ___36___ Hundreds of thousands of people from all walks of life participate in the sport every week. But why? The answer lies in the physical, mental and even social benefits boxing can bring. Its physical benefits are clear. Whether it’s practicing with a punching (拳打) bag, training with a partner or facing an opponent in the ring, boxing can be an intense form of exercise and give a full- body workout. ___37___ And it can also increase anaerobic (无氧的) fitness— allowing someone to work out harder, for longer. These can, in turn, positively impact other aspects of physical well- being, like heart health and weight management. ___38___ Boxing can also positively impact someone’s mental well- being. Dr Jessica Pinchbeck, Senior Lecturer in Sport and Fitness at the Open University, says that boxing can relieve some of the symptoms (症状) of anxiety and depression. Exercising regularly is already widely known to be good for mental health, but boxing can also bring a sense of discipline and focus. And there is a third benefit to putting on the boxing gloves. Practicing punches can be done alone, of course. ___39___ It also involves working with others to train and stay safe. Dr Gavin Williams, Senior Lecturer in Education at the Open University, says that this cooperation and team work can create a sense of identity and belonging. ___40___ A. It can improve muscular strength. B. But boxing is not just an individual activity. C. So the interactive elements bring social benefits. D. So boxing also strengthens a sense of community. E. More recently, boxing has become the mainstream in the UK. F. But the high physical demands of the sport aren’t just good for the body. G. It promotes self- defense skills, helping build confidence to protect oneself. 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和D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 One night in Reykjavik, Thorleifsson was wandering around the main street with his wife and kids.

He’s 16 and I’m allowed to join him on longer rides because we’ re training for a charity cycling event. One day, after checking our tires (轮胎), we set out for Tournus. Upon arrival, Gabriel and I parked our bikes near the river and walked to the town square. We’d just ridden 33 kilometers, and we were starving. We planned to get lunch and then ride to Mâcon, a small city in France on the Saône River. It was market day. Locals were busy filling their baskets with groceries. Tourists hunted for gifts. Gabriel and I bought a long, thin loaf of bread and some Brie, a soft cheese which tasted awesome. As we ate, I noticed a girl wearing a USA Basketball T- shirt. She smiled at us. Basketball is big in France too. You can even watch NBA games on TV. The girl stopped to buy some bread with her mum. I saw them again by the river. They sat on a bench enjoying their food in front of a long, narrow riverboat named Voyageur. Then they boarded the boat. It was preparing to leave. Suddenly, I spotted a colorful shopping bag on the bench. The girl had left it! I looked up. Some passengers were gathering on the upper deck (甲板) of the riverboat, including the girl and her mum. I held up the bag and waved it to get their attention while Gabriel called to them. When the girl noticed the bag, she opened her mouth in surprise. But her face fell as the boat started to pull away from the dock (码头). She didn’t think she’d get the stuff back. Running alongside the boat, Gabriel learned from a sailor that the boat’s next stop was Mâcon—— our destination as well. It would take the boat just under two hours at a speed of 22 kilometers per hour.“ What can we do then?” he said. 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。 “We have to find a way to return it”I repiled. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Then it happened: pffft!

I have been on the phone with my bank all day and they still haven’t fixed my problem. W: Is it a credit card problem? M: Yes. My credit card information was stolen. When I got my bill in the mail, I saw there were many unfamiliar purchases on it. W: That’s terrible. Did they take a lot of money? M: Yes, and I am very upset because the bank is not helping me quickly. I have talked to many different managers already. W: Doesn’t the bank’s owner need to make the decision to give you your money back? M: No. I just have to prove that these purchases were not made by me. W: I hope you can fix this problem soon. Something similar happened to my husband’ s mother recently. She was tricked into giving away some important information over the phone. M: I think the person who stole my information got it from the Internet. I bought a collection of movies recently. I won’t be doing that again unless the website is sure to be safe. It’s honestly my fault for being careless. W: You can never be too careful. Well, your problem is inspiring me to look into protecting my account better. I think I can pay my bank more to help me. 听下面一段独白，回答以下小题。【此处可播放相关音频，请去附件查看】 18. What does Caroline Smith talk about in the Kyrie Belle Show? A. Wildlife extinction. B. Latest campaigning activities. C. Common misunderstandings of animals. 19 What does a monkey’s ear-to-ear smile suggest? A. It is quite shy. B. It feels at risk. C. It is very happy. 20. Why does the speaker deliver the speech? A. To present a charity show. B. To advertise a national zoo. C. To introduce a preservationist. 【答案】18. C 19. B 20. C 【解析】 【原文】W: When all the animals of a species die out, the whole world loses. That creature is gone forever. Many people are worried about this happening to a large number of wild animals. They spend time campaigning to help preserve wildlife. One of the best-known preservationists is Caroline Smith. She is an attractive young woman who works for the National Grand Zoo. Caroline Smith’s vast knowledge of animals makes her a frequent guest on TV talk shows. She has been on the “Kyrie Belle Show” over forty times. She explains common errors in thinking about wildlife. For example, gorillas aren’t the violent, cruel and rude animals they appear to be. They are really quite shy. Monkeys that smile aren’t as happy as they seem. In fact, a monkey’s ear-to-ear smile means “watch out”. Snakes really help nature by eating harmful insects. So people should try to protect them. Caroline Smith hopes that once people understand animals better, they will do their best to preserve them. How lucky animals are to have a friend like Caroline Smith! 第二部分 阅读理解(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和D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 A We will kick off our free Summer Library Program on June 7, offering a variety of programs and activities for all ages.

That’s the key question we’re trying to answer here,” Meenakshi Wadhwa, a planetary scientist, tells her class. As she explains, one student takes notes while another holds up an iPhone to take a photo of the slides. In many ways this lecture hall at Arizona State University is like any other. A group of enthusiastic women sit attentively in the front row; the men are spread out in the back. But the hearing aids suggest how unusual this class is. Mirabella, a 20- storey “university retirement community” on ASU’s campus, is home to over 300 retired people. When it was opened in 2020, the senior-living facility was nearly fully subscribed. Most residents are having a ball. They can attend the same classes and cultural events as students, but with the distinct benefit of not having to take exams. In their dorms, facilities include an art studio, a pool and gym, and a games room. Only the second floor feels institutional, with a memory- care centre and rooms for residents who need round- the- clock attention. This is part of a wider trend. An estimated 85 colleges in America are now connected to senior living communities. With more than 10,000 baby boomers (生育高峰期出生的人) in America turning 65 every day, the opportunity for alternative forms of retirement is large. Compared with previous generations, boomers are wealthy, educated and picky. They want to remain active and not locked away. These wishes can all be met on a university campus. For universities, welcoming pensioners (领退休金者) can make sense too. Nationally, undergraduate enrolment dropped from over 18m in 2010 to below 16m in 2022. As for what to do with the extra space, the smartest ones, Andrew Carle at Georgetown University says, provide a continuum of care — including for the very last stage of life. “The charity is the icing on the cake,” he says of the potential that residents will include universities in their wills. 24. How does the writer introduce the topic? A. By raising a question. B. By making a comparison. C. By offering an explanation. D. By giving a description. 25. Why are university retirement communities well- received? A. They provide free medical car B. They have various research facilities. C. They allow students to take exams flexibly. D. They help seniors live an active and engaging life. 26. How can universities benefit from integrating senior living communities? A. It improves university teaching programs. B. It addresses the university enrolment decline. C. It draws public attention to university education. D. It earns universities the fame for caring for seniors. 27. What is the text mainly about? A. Different forms of retirement. B. The education welfare of pensioners. C. The trend of retiring on college campuses. D. A new way for universities to make profits. 【答案】24. D 25. D 26. B 27. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了“大学退休社区”，为老年退休人员提供服务，介绍了这一机构的特点以及带来的好处。 【24题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段““Are we alone in the universe? That’s the key question we’re trying to answer here,” Meenakshi Wadhwa, a planetary scientist, tells her class. As she explains, one student takes notes while another holds up an iPhone to take a photo of the slides. In many ways this lecture hall at Arizona State University is like any other. A group of enthusiastic women sit attentively in the front row; the men are spread out in the back. But the hearing aids suggest how unusual this class is.(“我们在宇宙中是孤独的吗?”这是我们在这里试图回答的关键问题，”行星科学家Meenakshi Wadhwa告诉她的学生。她解释说，一个学生在做笔记，另一个学生拿着iPhone给幻灯片拍照。在许多方面，亚利桑那州立大学的这个演讲厅和其他任何演讲厅都一样。一群热情的妇女聚精会神地坐在前排；人们在后面散开。但助听器表明，这门课有多不寻常)”可知，作者通过描述一个上课的情景引入主题。故选D。 【25题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“Compared with previous generations, boomers are wealthy, educated and picky. They want to remain active and not locked away. These wishes can all be met on a university campus.(与前几代人相比，婴儿潮一代富有、受过良好教育，而且很挑剔。他们希望保持活跃，而不是被关起来。这些愿望都可以在大学校园里实现)”可知，大学退休社区受到欢迎因为它们帮助老年人过积极而有吸引力的生活。故选D。 【26题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“For universities, welcoming pensioners (领退休金者) can make sense too. Nationally, undergraduate enrolment dropped from over 18m in 2010 to below 16m in 2022.(对于大学来说，欢迎退休人员也是有意义的。在全国范围内，本科生入学人数从2010年的1800多万下降到2022年的1600万以下)”可知，大学通过解决大学入学率下降的问题从整合老年人生活社区中获益。故选B。 【27题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第二段“Mirabella, a 20- storey “university retirement community” on ASU’s campus, is home to over 300 retired people.(米拉贝拉是亚利桑那州立大学校园里一个20层的“大学退休社区”，住着300多名退休人员)”结合文章主要介绍了“大学退休社区”为老年退休人员提供服务可知，这篇文章的主要内容是大学校园里为退休人员提供教育的趋势。故选C。 C It’s the season for friends, family and cheese holiday movies. Whether you’ re a fan of Christmas classics or prefer streamable and made-for-TV specials, there’s always a reason holiday movie s are so popular — even the most predictable. “In fact, this is what keeps us coming back. You would almost be disappointed if they weren’t a little predictable,” says Dr. Pamela Rutledge, a media psychologist. “It’s not like there’s going to be a heart-stopping surprise waiting to catch you off guard.” And while the plot of a city girl meeting a hometown guy is overused, Rutledge says these romantic holiday movies satisfy our inner desire for social connection and provide our brain with the confidence to anticipate something and have that be the case. The holiday season itself can be stressful, making these movies an easy go - to for relaxation during a busy time of year. “These movies can act as ‘cinema therapy,’ when you can relax with your friends,” says Allison Eden, associate professor of communication at Michigan State. “You don’t have to work too hard to enjoy it. They’re just gentle comforting, feel-good movies that can really help, especially during times of stress.” The most stressed you’ll feel during most holiday movies? A silly, low- conflict misunderstanding between love interests that you know will be resolved by the end. “The brain responds to that whole journey with both the dopamine (多巴胺) of reward of having it turn out like you wanted to, but also the oxytocin (催产素) release when you’re talking about feelings of warmth and connection and love. So sort of a win - win,” Rutledge says. If you think you can find the same win - win in other forms of media, it may be harder than you think. People often use social media as a way to escape, for example, but it’s not always the pick- me- up you may be looking for. With social media, you really never know what you’re going to come up against. 28. What contribute most to the popularity of holiday movies? A. Predictable plots. B. Appealing themes. C. Unexpected endings. D. Romantic elements. 29. What does the underlined phrase “cinema therapy” in paragraph 3 refer to? A. A call for easy work. B. A form of stress relief. C. A chance to enjoy movies. D. A way to develop friendship. 30. Why does Rutledge view holiday movies as sort of a win-win? A. They enhance our brain function. B. They provide a comforting escape. C. They offer emotional satisfaction. D. They assist in resolving low conflicts. 31. What is the writer’s purpose in writing the text? A. To call on people to watch holiday movies. B. To introduce the features of holiday movies. C. To explain why your brain loves holiday movies. D. To compare holiday movies with other forms of media. 【答案】28. A 29. B 30. C 31. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要解释了人们喜欢假日电影的原因。 【28题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段““In fact, this is what keeps us coming back. You would almost be disappointed if they weren’t a little predictable,” says Dr. Pamela Rutledge, a media psychologist. “It’s not like there’s going to be a heart-stopping surprise waiting to catch you off guard.”(“事实上，这就是吸引我们回来的原因。媒体心理学家帕梅拉·拉特利奇博士说：“如果他们没有一点可预测性，你几乎会感到失望。不会有什么惊心动魄的惊喜等着你猝不及防。”)”可知，节日电影受欢迎的最大原因是情节可预测。故选A。 【29题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线词后文“when you can relax with your friends(你可以和你的朋友放松)”以及“They’ re just gentle comforting, feel-good movies that can really help, especially during times of stress.(它们只是温和安慰、让人感觉良好的电影，真的很有帮助，尤其是在压力大的时候)”可知，这些电影只是温和安慰、让人感觉良好的电影，尤其是在压力大的时候，可以让你和你的朋友放松，说明它们是一种缓解压力的方式。故划线词指的是“一种缓解压力的方式”。故选B。 【30题详解】 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段““The brain responds to that whole journey with both the dopamine (多巴胺) of reward of having it turn out like you wanted to, but also the oxytocin (催产素) release when you’ re talking about feelings of warmth and connection and love. So sort of a win- win,” Rutledge says.( Rutledge说：“大脑对整个过程做出反应，既会产生多巴胺，也会在你谈论温暖、联系和爱的感觉时释放催产素。”所以这是一种双赢。”)”可知，Rutledge认为节日电影是一种双赢因为他们提供情感上的满足。故选C。 【31题详解】 推理判断题。通读全文，并根据第一段“It’s the season for friends, family and cheese holiday movies. Whether you’ re a fan of Christmas classics or prefer streamable and made-for-TV specials, there’s always a reason holiday movie s are so popular — even the most predictable.(这是朋友、家人和奶酪假日电影的季节。无论你是圣诞经典的粉丝，还是喜欢流媒体和电视特别节目，节日电影如此受欢迎总是有原因的——即使是最可预测的)”可知，作者写这篇文章的目的是解释为什么你的大脑喜欢假日电影。故选C。 D Rare is the CEO who praises the virtues of a lie- in. According to one survey, two- thirds of the CEOs of large American companies are up by 6 o’ clock; for average Americans the share is less than one in three. For future corporate leaders, the message seems clear: you snooze (打盹), you lose. Bartleby has no such ambitions. But he’s experimented with early starts, and found they not only bring the sense of satisfaction that comes from arriving before your editor. Inboxes can be cleared and tricky problems solved before the flood of emails and meetings, leaving you feeling well prepared for the day ahead. Early birds are certainly held in higher regard. Rolling into the office late is unacceptable in most workplaces. A study published in 2022 found night owls (猫头鹰) were perceived by respondents as being “lazy”, “undisciplined” and “immature”. Rising early is not, though, all upside. Those ready to receive work when the boss arrives may be given more of it. If the early bird gets the worm, the clever worm stays in bed. Urgent tasks often come up during the day, meaning early arrivals may end up working just as late as other colleagues. Waking before sun rise also risks turning you into a bore. Some early risers cannot resist describing how much they get done while night owls hit the snooze button. Others go home early rather than socialize. Night owls, by contrast, let loose. In the eyes of many, late nights are the preserve of youth, while early mornings are seen as for the elderly. Efforts to change your circadian (昼夜节律的) rhythm are likely to end in disappointment, as it is largely a product of genes. Perhaps the best advice is to stop worrying about your body clock. Most people are neither early birds nor night owls, but in between, struggling both in the morning and late evening. That is why most offices operate between 9 and 5— and why they ought to have break rooms. 32. Why does the writer mention the survey in paragraph 1? A. To illustrate the harmful effects of snoozing. B. To praise the healthy sleeping habit of the CEOs. C. To tell the difference between CEOs and average workers. D. To show the possible link between early rising and success. 33. What does paragraph 2 focus on? A. The feelings of early risers. B. The challenges on a workday. C. The benefits of getting up early. D. The preparations before work. 34. What can be a downside of being an early bird? A. Poor public image. B. Increased workload. C. Hug e social pressure. D. Decreased productivity. 35. Which of the following is the best title for the text? A. Why Do CEOs Prefer Early Mornings? B. How Can We Change Our Body Clock? C. What Is the Science Behind Early Rising? D. Is It Better to Be an Early Bird or a Night Owl? 【答案】32. D 33. C 34. B 35. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是议论文。文章围绕“早起”的话题展开，讨论了早起的利弊，并从不同角度分析了早起对个人和职场生活的影响。 【32题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“Rare is the CEO who praises the virtues of a lie- in. According to one survey, two- thirds of the CEOs of large American companies are up by 6 o’ clock; for average Americans the share is less than one in three. For future corporate leaders, the message seems clear: you snooze (打盹), you lose. (很少有首席执行官会称赞睡懒觉的好处。根据一项调查，三分之二的美国大公司的首席执行官会在6点钟起床；对于普通美国人来说，这一比例不到三分之一。对于未来的企业领导人来说，这条信息似乎很明确：你打盹，你就输了。)”可知，本段提到调查的原因是为了说明早起和成功之间可能存在的联系。故选D项。 【33题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第二段“Bartleby has no such ambitions. But he’s experimented with early starts, and found they not only bring the sense of satisfaction that comes from arriving before your editor. Inboxes can be cleared and tricky problems solved before the flood of emails and meetings, leaving you feeling well prepared for the day ahead. (巴特比没有这样的野心。但他尝试过早起，发现早起不仅带来早于编辑到达的满足感。在电子邮件和会议洪流到来之前，收件箱可以被清空，棘手的问题也可以得到解决，让你为即将到来的一天做好充分准备。)”可知，本段主要讲述了早起的好处。故选C项。 【34题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“Rising early is not, though, all upside. Those ready to receive work when the boss arrives may be given more of it. If the early bird gets the worm, the clever worm stays in bed. Urgent tasks often come up during the day, meaning early arrivals may end up working just as late as other colleagues. (然而，早起也并非都是好处。那些准备在老板到达时开始工作的人可能会被分配更多工作。如果说早起的鸟儿有虫吃，那么聪明的虫子就会赖在床上。紧急任务经常在白天出现，这意味着早到的人可能也会像其他同事一样工作到很晚。)”可知，早起的坏处是可能增加工作量。故选B项。 【35题详解】 主旨大意题。根据倒数第二段“Waking before sun rise also risks turning you into a bore. Some early risers cannot resist describing how much they get done while night owls hit the snooze button. Others go home early rather than socialize. Night owls, by contrast, let loose. In the eyes of many, late nights are the preserve of youth, while early mornings are seen as for the elderly. (日出前醒来也有可能让你变得无趣。一些早起的人忍不住会描述他们在夜猫子们打盹时完成了多少工作。另一些人则会早点回家，而不是进行社交。相比之下，夜猫子们则会放松。在许多人眼中，深夜是年轻人的专属，而清晨则被视为老年人的专属。)”以及通读全文可知，本文主要讨论了早起的利弊，所以D项“Is It Better to Be an Early Bird or a Night Owl?(早起好还是夜猫子好?)”是本文最好的标题。故选D项。 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能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Boxing has been practiced for centuries— it was even one of the sports in the original Olympic Games in ancient Greece. ___36___ Hundreds of thousands of people from all walks of life participate in the sport every week. But why? The answer lies in the physical, mental and even social benefits boxing can bring. Its physical benefits are clear. Whether it’s practicing with a punching (拳打) bag, training with a partner or facing an opponent in the ring, boxing can be an intense form of exercise and give a full- body workout. ___37___ And it can also increase anaerobic (无氧) fitness— allowing someone to work out harder, for longer. These can, in turn, positively impact other aspects of physical well- being, like heart health and weight management. ___38___ Boxing can also positively impact someone’s mental well- being. Dr Jessica Pinchbeck, Senior Lecturer in Sport and Fitness at the Open University, says that boxing can relieve some of the symptoms (症状) of anxiety and depression. Exercising regularly is already widely known to be good for mental health, but boxing can also bring a sense of discipline and focus. And there is a third benefit to putting on the boxing gloves. Practicing punches can be done alone, of course. ___39___ It also involves working with others to train and stay safe. Dr Gavin Williams, Senior Lecturer in Education at the Open University, says that this cooperation and team work can create a sense of identity and belonging. ___40___ A. It can improve muscular strength. B. But boxing is not just an individual activity. C. So the interactive elements bring social benefits. D. So boxing also strengthens a sense of community. E. More recently, boxing has become the mainstream in the UK. F. But the high physical demands of the sport aren’t just good for the body. G. It promotes self- defense skills, helping build confidence to protect oneself. 【答案】36. E 37. A 38. F 39. B 40. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是说明文。文章主要围绕“拳击”这一主题，从多个角度（身体、心理、社交等）介绍了拳击的好处，并辅以专家观点和具体描述来增强说服力。 【36题详解】 由上文“Boxing has been practiced for centuries— it was even one of the sports in the original Olympic Games in ancient Greece. (拳击运动已经有几个世纪历史了，它甚至是古希腊奥运会的比赛项目之一。)”可知，前一句提到拳击已经存在了几个世纪，甚至是古希腊奥运会中的一项运动，接下来需要描述拳击在现代的普及情况。E选项提到“More recently, boxing has become the mainstream in the UK. (最近，拳击已经成为英国的主流运动。)”与前文形成了对比，能承接上文，符合题意。故选E项。 【37题详解】 根据前文“Its physical benefits are clear. Whether it’s practicing with a punching (拳打) bag, training with a partner or facing an opponent in the ring, boxing can be an intense form of exercise and give a full- body workout. (它对身体的好处是显而易见的。无论是用沙袋练习，与伙伴一起训练还是在拳击场上面对对手，拳击都是一种激烈的运动形式，可以锻炼全身。)”可知，此处在讲述拳击对身体的好处，所以A项“It can improve muscular strength. (它可以增强肌肉力量。)”符合本段主题，并和后文“And it can also increase anaerobic (无氧的) fitness— allowing someone to work out harder, for longer. (它还可以提高无氧适应性 —— 让人们锻炼得更努力、更持久)”构成并列关系。故选A项。 【38题详解】 设空位于段首，为本段中心句，根据后文“Boxing can also positively impact someone’s mental well- being. Dr Jessica Pinchbeck, Senior Lecturer in Sport and Fitness at the Open University, says that boxing can relieve some of the symptoms (症状) of anxiety and depression. Exercising regularly is already widely known to be good for mental health, but boxing can also bring a sense of discipline and focus. (英国开放大学体育与健身高级讲师杰西卡·平奇贝克博士说，拳击可以缓解一些焦虑和抑郁的症状。众所周知，经常锻炼对心理健康有益，但拳击也能带来自律感和专注感。)”可知，本段主要讲述拳击对心理健康的好处，所以F项“But the high physical demands of the sport aren’t just good for the body. (但是这项运动对身体的高要求不仅仅对身体有好处。)”符合本段主题，和上文构成转折关系，并引出下文。故选F项。 【39题详解】 根据前文“Practicing punches can be done alone, of course. (当然，练习出拳可以独自完成。)”以及后文“It also involves working with others to train and stay safe. (它还包括与其他人一起训练和保持安全。)”可知，B项“But boxing is not just an individual activity. (但是拳击不仅仅是个人的运动。)”和前文构成转折关系，并引出下文，符合文意。故选B项。 【40题详解】 设空位于段尾，是对前文的总结，根据前文“It also involves working with others to train and stay safe. Dr Gavin Williams, Senior Lecturer in Education at the Open University, says that this cooperation and team work can create a sense of identity and belonging. (它还包括与其他人一起训练和保持安全。开放大学教育高级讲师加文·威廉姆斯博士说，这种合作和团队合作可以创造一种认同感和归属感。)”可知，讲述拳击运动中和他人合作的好处，所以C项“So the interactive elements bring social benefits. (所以互动元素带来了社会效益。)”是对前文的总结，符合文意。故选C项。 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和D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 One night in Reykjavik, Thorleifsson was wandering around the main street with his wife and kids.

Communication is built on relationships, shared experiences and emotions to make decisions, and avoiding ___58___(open) expressing disagreements. “Low-context culture” countries like Australia and Germany rely on direct communication and ___59___(write) rules to convey meaning. They rely less on shared assumptions of the group and the context of the situation, ___60___ results in the need for being more precise. Understanding “high-context and low-context cultures” is a huge advantage for global businesses, as it has an impact ___61___ communication, negotiation, and more.

He’s 16 and I’m allowed to join him on longer rides because we’ re training for a charity cycling event. One day, after checking our tires (轮胎), we set out for Tournus. Upon arrival, Gabriel and I parked our bikes near the river and walked to the town square. We’d just ridden 33 kilometers, and we were starving. We planned to get lunch and then ride to Mâcon, a small city in France on the Saône River. It was market day. Locals were busy filling their baskets with groceries. Tourists hunted for gifts. Gabriel and I bought a long, thin loaf of bread and some Brie, a soft cheese which tasted awesome. As we ate, I noticed a girl wearing a USA Basketball T- shirt. She smiled at us. Basketball is big in France too. You can even watch NBA games on TV. The girl stopped to buy some bread with her mum. I saw them again by the river. They sat on a bench enjoying their food in front of a long, narrow riverboat named Voyageur. Then they boarded the boat. It was preparing to leave. Suddenly, I spotted a colorful shopping bag on the bench. The girl had left it! I looked up. Some passengers were gathering on the upper deck (甲板) of the riverboat, including the girl and her mum. I held up the bag and waved it to get their attention while Gabriel called to them. When the girl noticed the bag, she opened her mouth in surprise. But her face fell as the boat started to pull away from the dock (码头). She didn’t think she’d get the stuff back. Running alongside the boat, Gabriel learned from a sailor that the boat’s next stop was Mâcon—— our destination as well. It would take the boat just under two hours at a speed of 22 kilometers per hour.“ What can we do then?” he said. 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。 “We have to find a way to return it”I repiled. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Then it happened: pffft! Flat tire! ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 “We have to find a way to return it,” I replied. Without hesitation, we grabbed our bikes and quickly calculated the time it would take to beat the boat to Mâcon. It would be close, but if we rode fast enough, we just might make it. Gabriel and I jumped on our bikes and started pedaling as hard as we could. The wind blew against our faces as we raced along the river’s edge, the boat visible in the distance. The road was narrow and uneven at times, but we pushed forward, determined to return the girl’s bag. With each passing minute, my legs burned, but I couldn’t give up. The smile on the girl’s face kept flashing through my mind, urging me to ride faster. Then it happened: pffft! Flat tire! I looked down in horror as my back wheel wobbled dangerously. “No! Not now!” I groaned. Gabriel stopped and looked at me with a worried expression. We had no time to fix it. “You go on without me!” I urged him. “I’ll catch up somehow.” Without arguing, Gabriel nodded, took the bag from me, and sped off down the road. I watched him disappear into the distance, feeling a mix of frustration and hope. I quickly pushed my bike off to the side and started running. Despite the setback, I wasn’t giving up. As I neared Mâcon, I saw Gabriel waiting by the dock, a triumphant grin on his face. The boat had just arrived, and the girl was joyfully holding her shopping bag, waving to us in gratitude. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开。讲述了作者和堂兄Gabriel骑车去Tournus时发现一个女孩将购物袋落下了，而女孩坐船走了，作者和Gabriel骑车去追女孩，想把购物袋还给她，途中作者的自行车轮胎坏了，Gabriel独自骑车去还购物袋，作者在后面跑步追赶，最后他们及时赶到，把购物袋还给女孩。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容““我们得想办法还回去。”我补充道。”可知，第一段可描写作者和堂兄骑车去把购物袋归还给女孩。 ②由第二段首句内容“然后事情发生了：噗！爆胎！”可知，第二段可描写作者的车胎坏了，作者让堂兄去还购物袋，然后作者一人跑步追赶。 2.续写线索：决定骑车去还包——努力骑车赶路——车胎坏了——Gabriel独自骑车去还购物袋——作者跑步追赶——及时赶到——将购物袋还给女孩 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①回答：reply/answer ②计算出：calculate/work out ③归还：return/give back 情绪类 ①感谢：gratitude / appreciation ②惊恐地：in horror/in fright 【点睛】[高分句型1] The wind blew against our faces as we raced along the river’s edge, the boat visible in the distance.（运用了as引导的时间状语从句） [高分句型2] I watched him disappear into the distance, feeling a mix of frustration and hope. （运用了现在分词作状语） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
