Ⅰ.阅读理解
A
(2021·新高考Ⅰ卷)Rome can be pricey for travelers, which is why many choose to stay in a hostel (旅社). The hostels in Rome offer a bed in a dorm room for around $25 a night, and for that, you'll often get to stay in a central location(位置) with security and comfort.
Yellow Hostel
If I had to make just one recommendation for where to stay in Rome, it would be Yellow Hostel. It's one of the bestrated hostels in the city, and for good reason. It's affordable, and it's got a fun atmosphere without being too noisy. As an added bonus, it's close to the main train station.
Hostel Alessandro Palace
If you love social hostels, this is the best hostel for you in Rome. Hostel Alessandro Palace is fun. Staff members hold plenty of bar events for guests like free shots, bar crawls and karaoke. There's also an area on the rooftop for hanging out with other travelers during the summer.
Youth Station Hostel
If you're looking for cleanliness and a modern hostel, look no further than Youth Station. It offers beautiful furnishings and beds. There are plenty of other benefits, too: it doesn't charge city tax; it has both air conditioning and a heater for the rooms; it also has free WiFi in every room.
Hotel and Hostel Des Artistes
Hotel and Hostel Des Artistes is located just a 10minute walk from the central city station and it's close to all of the city's main attractions. The staff is friendly and helpful, providing you with a map of the city when you arrive, and offering advice if you require some. However, you need to pay 2 euros a day for WiFi.

Liu Jichen, 23, a student from Tsinghua University, has developed a WeChat miniprogram called “Clear Your Plate”. After a meal, users can open the miniprogram and take a picture of their empty plates. Once the image is recognized by the AI(Artificial Intelligence), students can collect points and use them to buy gifts or purchase charity meals to children in impoverished(贫困的) rural areas.
Liu and his team, together with other organizations, launched the “Clear Your Plate” campaign in November for the third year. It has swept over 1,017 universities across the country. The onemonth campaign attracted almost 1.6 million participants and collectively reduced food waste by 862 tons and carbon emissions(碳排放) by 3,337 tons.
“Technological innovation is a good way to reduce food waste,” Liu thought. He organized a team of 20 members to work on the project at the end of 2017.To solve the AI's problem of identifying photos of empty plates, the team spent half a year collecting over 100,000 samples in canteens and restaurants. In 2018, the miniprogram was officially put into operation on Oct 16, World Food Day. They then launched a campaign later that year.
“There were so many unknowns in research and development. For our team members, the biggest psychological challenge was whether we were confident enough to complete it,” Liu said. They not only achieved their goal, but now, the miniprogram has more than 5 million registered users, according to Liu. “We hope our efforts can start a new trend among the younger generation by encouraging them to cherish(珍惜) their food and develop the habit of thrift(节约),” Liu added.

A.They found it tough to promote the campaign.

In 2018, the miniprogram was officially put into operation on Oct 16, World Food Day. (为了解决人工智能识别空盘子照片的问题,研究小组花了半年时间,在食堂和餐馆收集了超过10万个样本。2018年10月16日,世界粮食日,这个小程序正式投入运行。)”可以看出,柳和他的团队是意志坚定的。]

C
Hundreds of years ago,news was carried from place to place by people on foot or by horse. It took days,weeks and sometimes months for people to receive news. Now it is possible to send words and pictures around the world in seconds. Billions of people learn about news stories of their own country and all over the world every day,either by watching TV or reading newspapers.
Newspapers have been an important part of everyday life since the 18th century. Many countries have hundreds of different newspapers. How do newspaper editors decide which news stories to print? Why do they print some stories and not others? What makes a good newspaper story?
Firstly,it is important to report news stories.TV stations can report news much faster than newspapers. Yet,newspapers give more about the same story. They may also look at the story in another way,or they may print completely different stories to those on TV.
Secondly,a news story has to be interesting and unusual. People don't want to read stories about everyday life. As a result, many stories are about some kind of danger and seem to be “bad” news. For example,newspapers never print stories about planes landing safely;instead they print stories about plane accidents.
Another factor is also very important in many news stories. Many people are interested in news in foreign countries, but more prefer to read stories about people,places and events in their own country. So the stories on the front page in Chinese newspapers are usually very different from the ones in British,French and American newspapers.
[语篇解读] 本文是一篇说明文。文章讲的是新闻的两种传播途径:电视和报纸,并讲了如何成就好的报纸故事的方法。
8.The difference between newspaper stories and TV news reports is that .
A.people can learn more about the same news story from a newspaper
B.people can read the news story more quickly in a newspaper
C.people can read news stories in other countries
D.people can read news stories about their own country
A [细节理解题。根据第三段中的“TV stations can report news much faster than newspapers. Yet,newspapers give more about the same story.(电视台报道新闻比报纸快得多。然而,报纸对同一件事的报道更多。)”可知,关于同一新闻故事,人们可以从报纸上了解到更多的内容。]
9.To make a good newspaper story,how many factors does the passage talk about?
A.Two. B.Three.
C.Five. D.Six.
B [细节理解题。根据第三、四、五段开头Firstly, Secondly, Another factor可知,一个好的新闻故事要具备三个因素。]
10.According to the passage,which of the following can you most possibly watch on TV?
A.You often play football with your friends after school.
B.Your teacher has got a cold.
C.A tiger in the city zoo has run out and hasn't been caught.
D.The bike in front of your house is lost.
C [推理判断题。根据第四段中的“Secondly,a news story has to be interesting and unusual.(其次,新故事要求趣味性及不寻常性。)”以及“many stories are about some kind of danger and seem to be ‘bad’ news(许多故事是关于某种危险的,似乎是‘坏’消息)”可知,“市动物园里的一只老虎已经跑出来了,还没有被抓住”满足以上两点要求,最有可能在电视上看到。]
11.Which of the following is NOT true in this passage?
A.News stories on the front page of every country are always the same.
B.People like to read interesting and unusual news.
C.Not only TV but also newspapers can help people to learn what is happening around the world.

Journalists are the major group of people who make their living from writing. Many young people who see themselves as future novelists choose journalism as a way of earning a living while developing their writing skills. Although writing for newspapers and writing for books require different qualities, the aspiration (志向) to be a great writer is not one to be discouraged in a wouldbe journalist.
Most people want their work to be recognized by others. This helps to give it value. Some people also want themselves to be recognized, so that they have status (地位) in the eyes of society. It is not a bad motive to wish to be famous, but this must never become your main reason for being a journalist. You will not be a good journalist if you care more for impressing your audience than for serving their needs.
Knowing the power of the printed or spoken word or image, some people enter journalism for the power it will give them to influence people. There is a strong belief that journalists control the mass media but the best journalists recognize their role as servants of the people. There is a difference between the desire to influence events for your own sake, and the desire to do it for other people. You should never use journalism for selfish ends, but you can use it to improve the life of other people.
Curiosity is a natural part of most people's characters and an important ingredient for any journalist. Lots of young men and women enter the profession with the desire to know more about the world without needing to specialize in limited fields of study. Most journalists tend to know a little bit about a lot of things, rather than a lot about one subject. Knowledge has many uses. It can simply help to make you a fuller and more interesting person. It can also give you power over people, especially people who do not have that particular knowledge. Always bear in mind that power can be used in a positive way to improve people's lives.

Ⅱ.七选五
Good study habits are what separate the good students from the ordinary. It's natural for one not to want to study, especially when there are video games to play, friends to gossip with and exciting TV programs to watch. After a good study session, you will enjoy all those activities even more. 16 Read on to learn how.
Pick a place to study. If you find the right place and keep coming back to it, you will be able to focus when the time comes to read the books. Find a place where you can spread out your materials. 17
Choose a time to study. 18 The moment may happen in the calm morning hours or after minutes of physical exercises. To develop good study habits, start at the same time each day and plan your other activities around this period.
Mix it up. 19 It's natural to want variety so that you stay interested in what you are trying to learn. If you find a particular subject boring, put it between two subjects you enjoy.
20 This is an important part of developing good study habits. Deep down(在心底) we are all fiveyearolds who just want a candy bar. Let your treat be a chat with friends, a healthy snack, or even a night on the town if you finish a big project.
A.Give yourself rewards to finish.
B.Give yourself some breaks while you are studying.
C.Above all, think about whether it helps you concentrate best.

[语篇解读] 本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了在学习中培养专注力的一些方法。
16.F [上文“Good study habits are what separate the good students from the ordinary. (好的学习习惯是好学生与普通学生的区别。)”,空后“Read on to learn how. (继续阅读以了解如何做。)”,可知此空是关于某一学习好习惯的。再根据下面段落中“If you find the right place and keep coming back to it, you will be able to focus when the time comes to read the books. (如果你找到了合适的地方,并不断地回到那里,你将在阅读书籍的时候能够集中精力。)”可知,本文重点介绍的是学习时集中注意力这个好习惯的培养,所以选项F “此外,培养你的注意力有助于使你成为一个更聪明的人”符合逻辑和句意上的要求。]
17.C [根据上题分析可知,本文主要关注专注力的培养。上文“If you find the right place and keep coming back to it, you will be able to focus when the time comes to read the books.”说明了如果你找到了合适的地方,并不断地回到同样的地方,你将在阅读书籍的时候能够集中精力。选项C “最重要的是,想想它是否有助于你更好地集中注意力”再次强调你找的这个地方要有助于你集中注意力,符合语境。]
18.D [根据空前“Choose a time to study. (选择一个学习的时间。)”,此段是有关学习时间的。选项D“每个人的大脑一天中都有工作最高效的时刻”,符合本段讲述的内容,我们选择学习时间时,要尽量选择大脑工作效率高的时刻。下文“The moment may happen in the calm morning hours or after minutes of physical exercises. (这一时刻可能发生在早晨平静的几个小时或几分钟的体育锻炼之后。)”是对此选项中的时刻的进一步解释。]
19.G [本段中心句为“Mix it up. (混合起来学习。)”,下文“It's natural to want variety so that you stay interested in what you are trying to learn. If you find a particular subject boring, put it between two subjects you enjoy. (想要多样化是很自然的,这样你就能对你想学的东西保持兴趣。如果你觉得某个科目很无聊,就把它放在你喜欢的两个科目之间。)”,选项G“学习一个科目一小时,休息一下,然后继续另一个科目”对应了本段中心,将科目混合起来学,下文也是对选项内容的进一步解释。]
20.A [根据上面段落首句的句式特点,可知此空应用祈使句。由下文“Deep down we are all fiveyearolds who just want a candy bar. Let your treat be a chat with friends, a healthy snack, or even a night on the town if you finish a big project. (在内心深处我们都是五岁的孩子,只想要一块糖果。如果你完成了一个大项目,你可以奖励自己和朋友聊聊天,吃点健康的小吃,甚至可以在城里过夜。) ”可知,选项A“奖励自己完成任务”,符合本段讲述的中心,句式上也符合要求。]

In 1945, a 12yearold boy saw a beautiful brooch(胸针) in a shop window that set his heart racing. But the price—five dollars—was too high for Reuben Earle. Five dollars would buy almost a week's food for his family.
Reuben couldn't ask his father for the money. Everything his father made through fishing went to his mother, Dora. Slim and beautiful, she was the center of the home and the glue that held it together. The housework was neverending, and she struggled to feed and clothe their five children, but she was happy as her family and their wellbeing were all she cared about.
Nevertheless, he opened the shop's door and went inside. Standing proudly and straight in his floursack (面粉袋改做的)shirt and washedout trousers, he told the shopkeeper what he wanted, adding, “But I don't have the money right now. Can you please hold it for me for some time?”
“I'll try,” the shopkeeper smiled. “People around here don't usually have that kind of money to spend on things. It should keep for a while.”
Reuben respectfully touched his worn cap and walked out. He would raise the money and not tell anybody, for he thought Mum would get surprised when she saw that brooch. On hearing the sound of hammering(捶打) from a side street, Reuben suddenly had an idea that he could raise money by selling the used nail bags. People built their own homes in Bay Roberts, using nails bought in bags from a local factory. Sometimes the used bags were thrown away at the construction site, and Reuben knew he could sell them back to the factory for five cents a piece. That day he sold two nail bags and hid the money in a rusty soda tin.
Paragraph 1:
Every day after school, Reuben started his plan.
Paragraph 2:
Finally, the time came!

Paragraph 1:
Every day after school, Reuben started his plan. Cold and hungry, Reuben wandered around, searching for nail bags carefully from one street to another. To save more money, the determined boy even decided to deliver papers on the early morning. Every coin he won went to a soda tin, his treasured “bank”, and then all the tiredness disappeared magically. Each time he passed by the brooch in the shop window would remind him what he did was worthwhile. Day by day, his soda tin became heavier and heavier. Six weeks passed before he even knew it. Then approached the Christmas Eve.
Paragraph 2:
Finally, the time came! Reuben stole into his room and cautiously took out the soda tin, poured all the coins out and began to count. Five dollars and twenty cents! He counted it a second time, and no mistake. His hard work eventually paid off! Holding the soda tin firmly, Reuben rushed for the shop without a second's delay. Wearing the beautiful brooch and knowing the story behind it, Dora was too overjoyed to utter a word. She just threw her arms tightly around her beloved son. “Merry Christmas, Mom”, the son announced proudly. “You too,” the proud mother echoed. Well, no dream is out of reach for a willing heart.
