His love of birds started when he made his first bird feeder about six years ago. Now, he has his own group called “Protecting Our Birds”. He has been making western bluebird boxes for about four years. Dessi hangs them up in trees and takes them down every week and looks at them to see if the bluebirds are nesting. He does that every year during the summer. He chooses the bluebird because they nest in dead trees, but a lot of dead trees are being cut down. Dessi makes these boxes to take the place of the trees. He does research about birds, runs a website to teach people about birds and how to help them, and builds boxes for birds. Dessi has interviewed biologists, written a lot of articles on birds for local newspaper. Dessi also recently spent 10 days in Alaska with his family where he did research on golden eagles in Denali National Park. So now let’s welcome Dessi Sieburth! 第二部分　阅读(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、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 A A project called “I Am A Scientist” is giving middle and high school students the opportunity to interact with modern-day researchers.

I am driven by a deep desire to help others. I believe that all people have a fundamental right to health care.” Her work: During the Zika epidemic, Al-Alusi met with the communities that had been hardest hit by the virus, using data and mathematical models to keep them safe and healthy. Background: Al-Alusi was born in California but her parents emigrated from Iraq. This experience provided her with an understanding of the health needs of the immigrant community.Ryoji Amamoto, Neurobiologist (神经生物学家) “I’m a huge sports fan. I’ve traveled to more than 40 countries. I’m a licensed scuba diver but a terrible swimmer. I hated science in high school.” His work: Amamoto studies the tiny but amazing brains of animals that have a superpower — the ability to regenerate. He learns what factors help these special brains regrow, so that we can try to treat diseases like Parkinson’s. Background: Amamoto lived in Japan until the age of eight, when his family moved to Chicago. He had to overcome major language barriers which saw him shift between speaking English at school and Japanese at home.Yamicia Connor, Physician Scientist “I once competed in a robot competition. I love Beyonce. I love cooking. I’m a doctor who studies ways to improve women’s health.” Her work: Connor is a doctor at a hospital in Boston where she studies cancer cells in a lab using microscopes and computers, but she also works directly with patients who are undergoing tests for new cancer treatments. Background: Growing up in Florida, Connor was a serious kid who stressed about the little things. She was into her schoolwork and loved to put on plays with her friends in which she would organize the whole thing and assign everyone a role. 21．What can the students know about the scientists through the program?

I’ve traveled to more than 40 countries. I’m a licensed scuba diver but a terrible swimmer.(我是个超级体育迷。我去过40多个国家。我有潜水执照，但游泳技术很差)”以及Yamicia Connor, Physician Scientist部分中“I once competed in a robot competition. I love Beyonce. I love cooking.(我曾经参加过一个机器人比赛。我喜欢Beyonce。我喜欢烹饪)”可知，文章介绍了参与该项目的一些科学家的个人爱好。由此可知，通过这个项目，学生们能了解科学家的个人兴趣。故选C项。 22．细节理解题。根据Noor Al-Alusi, Epidemiologist部分中“Her work: During the Zika epidemic, Al-Alusi met with the communities that had been hardest hit by the virus, using data and mathematical models to keep them safe and healthy.(她的工作：在寨卡疫情期间，Al-Alusi会见了受病毒影响最严重的社区，使用数据和数学模型来保证他们的安全和健康)”可知，Noor Al-Alusi的工作是利用数据和数学模型来对抗病毒。故选B项。 23．推理判断题。根据第一段“A project called “I Am A Scientist” is giving middle and high school students the opportunity to interact with modern-day researchers. Below are stories from some of the scientists who are involved in the program.(一项名为“我是科学家”的项目为中学生提供了与现代研究人员互动的机会。以下是参与该项目的一些科学家的故事)”可推知，这篇文章很可能来自一本杂志。故选A项。 B Several security guards of residential compounds in Beijing and workers were seen shoveling snow and some parked vehicles were covered by thick overnight snow. The first snowfall of winter arrived in Beijing early Monday, covering the Chinese capital with a mantle (披风) of white overnight and plunging (使……下降) the city into freezing temperatures, with even colder weather coming this week in northern China. Snowfall reached 5.8 mm on average by early Monday, with the highest snowfall of 10.2 mm recorded in Fangshan district, Beijing Meteorological (气象的) Service data showed. Beijing typically sees its first snow of the season between late November and February, or even none at all. More snowfall is expected this week, with temperatures seen further sliding to as low as -20°Celsius. The Chinese capital last saw such similarly extremely cold weather on Jan. 7, 2021, when the temperature dropped to -19.6℃. The cold snap (寒潮) in Beijing this week, compared with the autumn-like conditions a week ago, mirrored the sharp swings in temperatures recently. In October, Beijing experienced one of its warmest Octobers in decades in a year of weather extremes. On Monday, the government warned of road icing in large parts of the city of nearly 22 million, with authorities shutting some expressways or partially closing sections. By 10 a. m. local time, 62 out of a few hundred flights had been cancelled at the Beijing Capital Airport. Railway authorities enforced speed limits on lines connecting Beijing and Guangzhou in southern China, causing delays in some passenger trains. By 7 a. m. Monday, more than 180 bus routes in Beijing had been suspended. The official Beijing Daily reported that vegetable stocks were enough, hitting this year’s highest daily market volume of 23,800 tons, as merchants stocked up (备货) ahead of time. Huang, a Beijing resident working in the internet sector, said the snow in Beijing came early. “Normally, it doesn’t snow until the Spring Festival,” Huang said, referring to the start of the Lunar New Year, which typically falls in January or February. 24．Which of the following is not used to show the seriousness of the snowfall in paragraph? A．By listing out numbers. B．By illustrating a viewpoint. C．By citing data from the authority. D．By making comparisons. 25．What contrast in weather conditions did Beijing experience as mentioned in the article? A．From hot summers to mild winters. B．From dry conditions to heavy rainfall. C．From autumn-like conditions to a sudden coldness. D．From constant snow to unexpectedly warm temperatures. 26．Which of the following word is close to the meaning of “enforced” in paragraph 4? A．introduced B．obeyed C．happened D．improved 27．What positive measure did merchants in Beijing take in anticipation of the snowfall? A．Organized community support groups. B．Increased storage of essential supplies. C．Created emergency shelters for the homeless. D．Offered discounts and sales to boost business. 【答案】24．B 25．C 26．A 27．B 【导语】这是一篇新闻报道。文章主要说明了周一凌晨，中国首都北京迎来了冬季第一场降雪，一夜之间，北京被大雪覆盖，气温降至冰点。本周，中国北方的天气将更加寒冷。文章解释了此次降温的特别之处、影响以及人们的应对方法。 24．推理判断题。根据第二段“Snowfall reached 5.8 mm on average by early Monday, with the highest snowfall of 10.2 mm recorded in Fangshan district, Beijing Meteorological (气象的) Service data showed. Beijing typically sees its first snow of the season between late November and February, or even none at all. More snowfall is expected this week, with temperatures seen further sliding to as low as -20°Celsius. The Chinese capital last saw such similarly extremely cold weather on Jan. 7, 2021, when the temperature dropped to -19.6℃.(据北京气象局数据显示，周一凌晨，平均降雪量达到5.8毫米，房山区降雪量最大，达到10.2毫米。北京通常在11月下旬至次年2月之间迎来冬季的第一场雪，甚至根本不下雪。预计本周将有更多降雪，气温将进一步下降至零下20摄氏度。中国首都北京上一次出现如此极端寒冷的天气是在2021年1月7日，当时气温降至零下19.6摄氏度)”可知，文章运用了列数字、引用权威的数据和比较，“说明观点”没有被用来表示降雪的严重性。故选B。 25．细节理解题。根据第三段“The cold snap (寒潮) in Beijing this week, compared with the autumn-like conditions a week ago, mirrored the sharp swings in temperatures recently. In October, Beijing experienced one of its warmest Octobers in decades in a year of weather extremes.(本周北京的寒流，与一周前类似秋天的天气相比，反映了最近气温的急剧波动。今年10月，北京经历了几十年来最温暖的10月之一)”可知，北京的天气条件不同之处在于从秋天般的天气到突然的寒冷。故选C。 26．词句猜测题。根据划线词后文“speed limits on lines connecting Beijing and Guangzhou in southern China, causing delays in some passenger trains”可知，客运列车延误是因为铁路部门对连接北京和广州的铁路实施了限速，故划线词意思是“实施”。故选A。 27．细节理解题。根据最后一段“The official Beijing Daily reported that vegetable stocks were enough, hitting this year’s highest daily market volume of 23,800 tons, as merchants stocked up (备货) ahead of time.(官方的《北京日报》报道称，由于商家提前囤货，蔬菜库存充足，达到今年最高的每日市场成交量23800吨)”可知，面对降雪，北京的商家增加了必需品的储存。故选B。 C A Neste fuel station in Finland is currently the only place in the world where you can have your car refueled by a robot. It’s the pilot site chosen by Autofuel, a Danish startup, to test its futuristic refueling system — a robotic arm that can locate a car’s fuel tank door, select the right type of fuel; and operate the pump (加油泵). “Our technology intends to provide the customers with maximum comfort and safety at gas stations,” Jonas Thor Olsen, CEO of Autofuel, said. “The robotic arm doesn’t need human involvement. It allows them to go to the shop for a coffee or take a short break while the car is refueled.” Autofuel’s solution consists of a robotic arm housed within the fuel pump, and a series of sensors and cameras designed to keep things running smoothly. Cameras detect the vehicle’s registration number, so the system is able to detect what kind of fuel it requires. Another camera directs the car to stop in a certain area so that the arm can easily reach the fuel tank door. The arm itself then starts to move, opening the door, selecting the right fuel and finally refueling the car. The whole thing looks great in promotional videos, but after one of them recently became popular online, people brought up a few concerns. First of all, in order for the entire process to work, one needs to have their vehicle registered with Autofuel. That’s information many people have no inclination to share for something as small as refueling. Also, the speed at which the robotic arm operates worries a lot of people as it appears to move much slower than a human. With robots and AI becoming such a big part of our lives lately, it’s easy to imagine solutions like Autofuel becoming mainstream in the near future. But any new innovation has to be tested and improved over and over again. 28．What is a robotic arm’s promotional advantage concerning car refueling? A．It moves faster than a human. B．It doesn’t need car registration. C．It can park cars automatically. D．It requires no human assistance. 29．What does the underlined word “inclination” in Paragraph 4 probably mean? A．Opportunity. B．Permission. C．Willingness. D．Ability. 30．How does the author find the robotic arm? A．It is well accepted. B．It is far from perfect. C．Its structure is strange. D．Its function is meaningless. 31．What is the best title for the text? A．This Robotic Arm Will Refuel Your Car B．An Innovation Has Been Improved Greatly C．Some Negative Views on a Refueling Solution D．A More Efficient Assistant at the Train Station 【答案】28．D 29．C 30．B 31．A 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一个新的科技发明——可以给汽车加油的机械臂。 28．细节理解题, 根据第二段“The robotic arm doesn’t need human involvement. It allows them to go to the shop for a coffee or take a short break while the car is refueled.(机械臂不需要人的参与。它允许他们去商店喝杯咖啡，或者在汽车加油的时候休息一会儿)”可知，在汽车加油方面，机械臂的推广优势是它不需要人工的帮助。故选D。 29．词句猜测题。根据划线词前“people brought up a few concerns(人们提出了一些担忧)”可知，划线词所在句谈及的是人们的担忧，带入选项词后可知，画线词所在句意为“许多人不愿意为了给车加油这样的小事而去分享车辆注册信息”。由此可知，划线词的意思“愿意”，与willingness的意思最接近。故选C。 30．推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“Also, the speed at which the robotic arm operates worries a lot of people as it appears to move much slower than a human.(此外，机器人手臂的操作速度也让很多人感到担忧，因为它的移动速度似乎比人类慢得多)”可推断，作者认为机械臂并不完美。故选B。 31．主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是文章第一段“A Neste fuel station in Finland is currently the only place in the world where you can have your car refueled by a robot. It’s the pilot site chosen by Autofuel, a Danish startup, to test its futuristic refueling system—a robotic arm that can locate a car’s fuel tank door, select the right type of fuel; and operate the pump (加油泵).(芬兰的Neste加油站是目前世界上唯一一个可以让机器人给汽车加油的地方。这是丹麦初创公司Autofuel选择的试验场，用于测试其未来的加油系统——一个可以定位汽车油箱门、选择正确类型的燃料并操作泵的机械臂)”可知，本文主要介绍了可以给汽车加油的机械臂。由此可知，最好的标题是A选项“这个机械臂将为你的汽车加油”。故选A。 D “While extroverts (性格外向者) often make great first impressions with their outgoing manner and lively personalities in interviews, that value and reputation at work diminish (削减) over time.” says Corinne Bender, an associate professor of management. “Extroverts disappoint us over time when they’re part of a team,” Bender says. “On a team you’re expected to work hard and contribute a lot. But they’re often poor listeners, and they don’t cooperate.” “On the other hand, introverts (性格内向者) work hard on a team because they care what others think of them. They don’t want to be seen as not pulling their weight or contributing 100%,” Bender says. So while companies may be attracted to hiring extroverts because they impress managers greatly in job interviews, bosses also may want to consider whether the extrovert they are considering will be a valuable team player, Bender says. Amy Jen Su and Muriel Maignan Wilkins, two writers, agree and say managers should recognize the strengths of introverted employees, such as their ability to put themselves in others’ shoes. “These team members are often easygoing, which can make them exceptional mentors (良师益友) to more junior staff or particularly good sounding boards when you interact with them in one-on-one situations,” Su says. “Managers must try to help introverts find their voice,” Wilkins says. “Help them see that speaking up is not about self-promotion or being in conflict but rather about offering the team key insights, making better decisions or increasing the efficiency for all.” What about those extroverts who never seem to be at a loss for words? Should managers cut them off? Managers definitely should weigh in on how an extrovert is affecting others. Wilkins suggests saying something in private to make adjustments. 32．What do we know about outgoing people according to Bender? A．They are often good listeners. B．They tend to perform well in interviews. C．They often make great contributions. D．They are often good at cooperating. 33．Which can best replace the underlined part “pulling their weight” in Paragraph 3? A．Doing their full share of work. B．Making good choices. C．Trusting others. D．Trying to share their thoughts. 34．What is Su’s attitude towards Bendersky’s words? A．Critical. B．Approving. C．Doubtful. D．Indifferent. 35．What does Wilkins advise managers to do? A．Promote more introverts. B．Learn to work more efficiently. C．Avoid conflict among employees. D．Encourage introverts to speak up. 【答案】32．B 33．A 34．B 35．D 【导语】本文是说明文。文章主要介绍性格外向者和内向者在面试和工作中的不同表现。 32．细节理解题。根据第一段“extroverts (性格外向者) often make great first impressions with their outgoing manner and lively personalities in interviews (性格外向的人在面试中往往以其外向的态度和活泼的个性给人留下深刻的第一印象)”可知，性格外向的人往往在面试中表现突出。故选B。 33．词句猜测题。根据第三段“On the other hand, introverts (性格内向者) work hard on a team because they care what others think of them. They don’t want to be seen as not pulling their weight or contributing 100% (另一方面，内向的人在团队中努力工作，因为他们关心别人对他们的看法。他们不想被视为没有pulling their weight或贡献100%)”可知，性格内向的人在团队中努力工作，所以他们应该是不想被视为没有尽力或贡献100%，所以pulling their weight的意思应该是“尽力”，和选项A意思一致。故选A。 34．推理判断题。根据第五段“Amy Jen Su and Muriel Maignan Wilkins, two writers, agree and say managers should recognize the strengths of introverted employees, such as their ability to put themselves in others’ shoes. (Amy Jen Su和Muriel Maignan Wilkins这两位作家对此表示赞同，并表示管理者应该认识到内向员工的优势，比如他们设身处地为他人着想的能力。)”可知，Amy Jen Su对Bendersky的话是赞同的态度。故选B。 35．细节理解题。根据第七段“Managers must try to help introverts find their voice (管理者必须努力帮助内向的人找到自己的声音)”可知，Wilkins建议管理者必须努力帮助内向的人发表自己的观点。故选D。 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可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Signs that You Are Growing Growing is a lifelong process. Here are the signs that show you are actually growing and not getting stuck in the process. 36 Often, we see how badly people look when they get overly upset due to unimportant things. So the first sign of maturity (成熟) is letting the small things go and not getting angry over a tiny detail that didn’t go as you planned. You start forgiving and understanding other people. When we are young, we are often unforgiving. As we mature, we are better able to understand the world beyond black and white. Becoming more understanding is a sign of strength, not weakness. 37 We begin to understand better that others have complex lives and personalities, and so we become more willing to forgive their mistakes. You always complete things that matter. Immature people don’t know when to commit (承诺) themselves and their energy or resources are always not well employed. 38 In this way, they can often keep their promises and honor their commitments. You accept the possibility of being wrong. 39 They are always able to accept the possibility that they are wrong and that they don’t know something, because there is always more to learn. Being mature is knowing that you are always growing up. You are never done learning and developing. 40 Rather, you open your mind to other ideas and new possibilities. A．You follow the crowd. B．You let the small things go. C．Instead, mature people focus on completing things that matter. D．Immature and mature people can both have plans for their lives. E．This means that you don’t set yourself up as the highest authority. F．It enables us to look beyond the obvious and let go of simple judgments. G．Mature people appear more confident, however, they are not overconfident. 【答案】36．B 37．F 38．C 39．G 40．E 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了四种可以表明你变得成熟的迹象。 36．根据本段内容“Often, we see how badly people look when they get overly upset due to unimportant things. So the first sign of maturity is letting the small things go and not getting angry over a tiny de tail that didn’t go as you planned.（我们常常看到，当人们因为不重要的事情而过度心烦意乱时，他们的表情会变得多么糟糕。因此，成熟的第一个标志就是放手去做小事，不要因为没有按计划进行的微小细节而生气。）”可知，本段提到“让小事过去，不要因为没有按计划进行的小细节而生气”，即建议不计较小事情。B项“You let the small things go.（你不计较小事）”适合作本节的小标题。故选B。 37．根据上句“Becoming more understanding is a sign of strength, not weakness.（变得更加理解是力量的标志，而不是软弱的标志。）”可知，变得更加善解人意是变强的一个迹象；根据下句“We begin to understand better that others havecomplex lives and personalities, and so we become more willing to forgive their mistakes.（我们开始更好地理解他人有复杂的生活和性格，因此我们更愿意原谅他们的错误。）”可知，我们开始更好地理解他人，因此我们变得更愿意原谅他们的错误。这是成长的优点。F项“It enables us to look beyond the obvious and let go of simple judgments.（它使得我们能够深层次地看问题，从而放弃简单的评价）”承上启下，符合题意。故选F。 38．根据上句“Immature people don’t know when to commit themselves and their energy or resources are always not well employed.（不成熟的人不知道什么时候该付出自己的努力，他们的精力或资源总是没有得到很好的利用。）”及下句“In this way, they can often keep their promises and honor their commitments.（这样，他们往往就能信守诺言，兑现承诺。）”可知，上文提到了不成熟的人的做法，那么本句是在说明成熟的人会怎么做。C项中的“mature people”与上文中的“Immature people”相对应。C项“Instead, mature people focus on completing things that matter.（相反，成熟的人专注于完成重要的事情。）”符合语境。故选C。 39．根据本节的小标题“You accept the possibility of being wrong（你接受犯错的可能性）”及下句“They are always able to accept the possibility that they are wrong and that they don’t know something, because there is always more to learn.（他们总是能够接受自己错了以及自己不知道的可能性，因为总是有更多东西需要学习。）”可知，后文提到了某种人能够接受自己错了的可能性，认识到有更多的东西需要学习， G项中的“Mature people”对应后文的“They”。G项“Mature people appear more confident, however, they are not overconfident.（成熟的人看起来更自信，然而，他们并不是过度自信）”符合语境。故选G。 40． 根据前文“Being mature is knowing that you are always growing up. You are never done learning and developing.（成熟就是知道自己一直在成长。你永远不会停止学习和发展。）”可知，变得成熟的标志；根据下句“Rather, you open your mind to other ideas and new possibilities.（相反，你会敞开心扉接受其他的想法和新的可能性）”可知，与前一句进行转折，不停止学习就意味着自己有很多需要成长的地方；E项“This means that you don’t set yourself up as the highest authority.（这意味着你没有把自己设定为最高权威）”，this指代前面的You are never done learning and developing，承上启下，符合题意。故选E。 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、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 I’ve always been creative since I was a little girl.

I went to ask some people I know who were adults in the ‘80s and 90s’, and the answer I got was that “Overall, life is a lot 57 (good) now!” This didn’t really surprise me. I mean, these days we’ve got mobile phones and the internet and so on — but 58 (actual) those weren’t the things they talked about. So what did they talk about? For 59 start, we don’t have to work physically hard since now there are a lot of things like dishwashers for housework. Then there’s the matter of how, these days, 60 is possible to work at home — it’s mainly 61 (computer) that have made this possible. Not only that, there’s a lot more 62 (equal) now. It’s easier for all people, whatever their social background, gender (性别), colour and so on, to have equal access 63 a variety of career opportunities. That said, it’s not all a matter of improvement. Quite a few people told me that they feel more stressed these days because they rely a lot on technology and they are always 64 (anxiety) about security on the internet. Plus, we spend a lot of our time 65 (use) smartphones. One person said, “Wouldn’t it be great to be off the grid (不上网) for a few days?” 【答案】 56．compared 57．better 58．actually 59．a 60．it 61．computers 62．equality 63．to 64．anxious 65．using 【导语】这是一篇议论文。文章主要讨论了科技是否真的让人的生活变得更好了。 56．考查非谓语动词。句意：你有没有想过，与上世纪80年代或90年代相比，现在的生活是什么样的？空处需填非谓语动词，作状语，compare和life为逻辑动宾关系，需用过去分词形式。故填compared。 57．考查比较级。句意：总的来说，现在的生活好多了！is后面接形容词作表语，a lot修饰形容词比较级。故填better。 58．考查副词。句意：我的意思是，现在我们有了手机和互联网等等，但实际上这些都不是他们谈论的东西。修饰后面整个句子，需填副词actually，作状语。故填actually。 59．考查冠词。句意：首先，我们不需要体力劳动，因为现在有很多东西，比如洗碗机做家务。for a start为固定搭配，意为“首先”。故填a。 60．考查it作形式主语。句意：接下来的问题是，这些天，如何使在家工作成为可能——主要是计算机使这成为可能。“it is adj.+to do…”为固定句型，it为形式主语，真正的主语是to work at home。故填it。 61．考查名词复数。句意同上。computer为可数名词，此处表示泛指，且没有冠词，空后的谓语是have made，需填名词复数形式。故填computers。 62．考查名词。句意：不仅如此，现在的平等程度也大大提高了。设空处作表语，且由a lot more修饰，需填名词equality，不可数名词。故填equality。 63．考查介词。句意：所有人，无论其社会背景、性别、肤色等等，都更容易平等地获得各种职业机会。have access to为固定搭配，意为“有机会接触”，to是介词。故填to。 64．考查形容词。句意：不少人告诉我，他们现在感到更有压力，因为他们非常依赖科技，他们总是担心互联网的安全。空处需填形容词anxious，作表语，be anxious to为固定搭配，表示“对……感到焦虑”。故填anxious。 65．考查非谓语动词。句意：此外，我们花了很多时间使用智能手机。spend some time (in) doing sth.为固定搭配，意为“花时间做某事”。故填using。 第四部分　写作(共两节，满分40分) 第一节　(满分15分) 假定你是李华，你的英国朋友Terry就读于天津某国际学校，对传统中国文化非常感兴趣，你校将举办中国传统文化周，请给Terry写封邮件，邀请他参加。内容包括： 1.活动时间地点； 2.邀请Terry参加； 3.介绍活动内容（看京剧，赏国画等）。 注意： 1.写作词数应为80左右； 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 3.参考词汇：京剧Peking Opera 国画：Chinese painting Dear Terry, ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Yours sincerely, Li Hua 【答案】参考范文 Dear Terry, Knowing that you are fascinated by diverse cultures, I’m exceedingly delighted to invite you to the upcoming event, Chinese Traditional Culture Week.

As I watched her unload my luggage, I could see the sadness in her eyes. This was not easy on her either. We had both been dreading (害怕) this moment for the past week. One last hug and a final good-bye and I would be on my way to a new life abroad, leaving my beloved sister behind. All my life I had loved airports. To me they were some kind of magic gateway to the world,a place from which to start great holidays and adventures. But today it seemed like a cold and heartless place. I looked at my sister and even though her eyes were filled with tears, she was trying to keep a brave face. “You’d better go or you’ll miss your flight,” she said. “I’ll miss you,” I replied, and with those last words I was off. As promised, I did not look back, but by the time I reached the customs office I was sobbing (啜泣). “Cheer up, love,” the tall customs officer said with a smile. “It’s not the end of the world, you know.” But to me it was the end of the world, as I had known it. While boarding the plane I was still crying. I did not have the energy to put my bag in the overhead locker, so I stuffed it on the empty seat next to mine. As I settled into my chair, a feeling of sadness overwhelmed me. I felt like my best friend had just been taken away from me. Growing up, my sister and I would do everything together. Born barely fifteen months apart we not only looked alike, we were alike. Whenever one of us need something, the other one would come along. When the time came for us to go to college, we also went together. But now that our college days were over and I was off to a foreign country, all I had left were my memories. 注意： 1.所续写短文的词数应为150左右； 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Paragraph 1: Suddenly the plane shook heavily and the bag next to me fell on the floor. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: I spent the rest of the flight reading about my sister’s diary. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】Paragraph 1: Suddenly the plane shook heavily and the bag next to me fell on the floor. Startled, I quickly reached down to pick it up, and as I did, a small notebook fell out from the bag. I opened it and immediately recognized my sister’s handwriting. It was a diary she had secretly slipped into my bag before I left. Flipping through the pages, I found heartfelt messages, memories of our childhood, and words of encouragement for my new journey. Tears welled up in my eyes as I realized the depth of her love and support, even in my absence. Paragraph 2: I spent the rest of the flight reading about my sister’s diary. Her words on the page brought a bittersweet mix of emotions, reminding me of the bond we shared and the strength she always gave me. As I read through the diary, I felt a sense of warmth and comfort, as if she were right there beside me. It was a precious gift that I would cherish throughout my time abroad, a reminder of the unbreakable connection between us despite the physical distance. Holding onto the diary, I knew that no matter where life took me, my sister would always be with me in spirit. 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，讲述了作者即将踏上去国外开始新生活的道路，作者和姐姐离别时难分难舍，一种悲伤的感觉淹没了作者。姐姐的一本日记使作者感到即使远隔重洋，姐姐也仿佛就在自己身边。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“突然飞机剧烈摇晃，我旁边的包掉在了地板上。”可知，第一段可描写作者在飞机剧烈摇晃之后发现了一本姐姐的日记，姐姐用日记继续陪伴自己，是对自己的爱的表达。 ②由第二段首句内容“在剩下的飞行时间里，我一直在阅读我姐姐的日记。”可知，第二段可描写作者在日记里看到的内容，以及回忆自己和姐姐的点滴幸福时光。姐姐时刻陪伴自己。 2.续写线索：出国——难以和姐姐分离——感到悲伤——发现姐姐的日记——阅读日记—回忆幸福时光——感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①翻页：Flipping through the pages / turning the pages ②认出，识别：recognize /acknowledge ③珍惜：cherish / treasure /refuse politely 情绪类 ①惊讶的：Startled / Surprised ②泪水夺眶而出：Tears welled up in my eyes / I burst into tears 【点睛】【高分句型1】It was a diary she had secretly slipped into my bag before I left.

Below are stories from some of the scientists who are involved in the program.Noor Al-Alusi, Epidemiologist (流行病学家) “I have a black belt in Taekwondo (跆拳道). I am driven by a deep desire to help others.

I’ve traveled to more than 40 countries. I’m a licensed scuba diver but a terrible swimmer. I hated science in high school.” His work: Amamoto studies the tiny but amazing brains of animals that have a superpower — the ability to regenerate. He learns what factors help these special brains regrow, so that we can try to treat diseases like Parkinson’s. Background: Amamoto lived in Japan until the age of eight, when his family moved to Chicago. He had to overcome major language barriers which saw him shift between speaking English at school and Japanese at home.Yamicia Connor, Physician Scientist “I once competed in a robot competition. I love Beyonce. I love cooking. I’m a doctor who studies ways to improve women’s health.” Her work: Connor is a doctor at a hospital in Boston where she studies cancer cells in a lab using microscopes and computers, but she also works directly with patients who are undergoing tests for new cancer treatments. Background: Growing up in Florida, Connor was a serious kid who stressed about the little things.

The first snowfall of winter arrived in Beijing early Monday, covering the Chinese capital with a mantle (披风) of white overnight and plunging (使……下降) the city into freezing temperatures, with even colder weather coming this week in northern China. Snowfall reached 5.8 mm on average by early Monday, with the highest snowfall of 10.2 mm recorded in Fangshan district, Beijing Meteorological (气象的) Service data showed. Beijing typically sees its first snow of the season between late November and February, or even none at all. More snowfall is expected this week, with temperatures seen further sliding to as low as -20°Celsius. The Chinese capital last saw such similarly extremely cold weather on Jan. 7, 2021, when the temperature dropped to -19.6℃. The cold snap (寒潮) in Beijing this week, compared with the autumn-like conditions a week ago, mirrored the sharp swings in temperatures recently. In October, Beijing experienced one of its warmest Octobers in decades in a year of weather extremes. On Monday, the government warned of road icing in large parts of the city of nearly 22 million, with authorities shutting some expressways or partially closing sections. By 10 a. m. local time, 62 out of a few hundred flights had been cancelled at the Beijing Capital Airport. Railway authorities enforced speed limits on lines connecting Beijing and Guangzhou in southern China, causing delays in some passenger trains. By 7 a. m. Monday, more than 180 bus routes in Beijing had been suspended. The official Beijing Daily reported that vegetable stocks were enough, hitting this year’s highest daily market volume of 23,800 tons, as merchants stocked up (备货) ahead of time. Huang, a Beijing resident working in the internet sector, said the snow in Beijing came early. “Normally, it doesn’t snow until the Spring Festival,” Huang said, referring to the start of the Lunar New Year, which typically falls in January or February. 24．Which of the following is not used to show the seriousness of the snowfall in paragraph? A．By listing out numbers. B．By illustrating a viewpoint. C．By citing data from the authority. D．By making comparisons. 25．What contrast in weather conditions did Beijing experience as mentioned in the article? A．From hot summers to mild winters. B．From dry conditions to heavy rainfall. C．From autumn-like conditions to a sudden coldness. D．From constant snow to unexpectedly warm temperatures. 26．Which of the following word is close to the meaning of “enforced” in paragraph 4? A．introduced B．obeyed C．happened D．improved 27．What positive measure did merchants in Beijing take in anticipation of the snowfall? A．Organized community support groups. B．Increased storage of essential supplies. C．Created emergency shelters for the homeless. D．Offered discounts and sales to boost business. C A Neste fuel station in Finland is currently the only place in the world where you can have your car refueled by a robot. It’s the pilot site chosen by Autofuel, a Danish startup, to test its futuristic refueling system — a robotic arm that can locate a car’s fuel tank door, select the right type of fuel; and operate the pump (加油泵). “Our technology intends to provide the customers with maximum comfort and safety at gas stations,” Jonas Thor Olsen, CEO of Autofuel, said. “The robotic arm doesn’t need human involvement. It allows them to go to the shop for a coffee or take a short break while the car is refueled.” Autofuel’s solution consists of a robotic arm housed within the fuel pump, and a series of sensors and cameras designed to keep things running smoothly. Cameras detect the vehicle’s registration number, so the system is able to detect what kind of fuel it requires. Another camera directs the car to stop in a certain area so that the arm can easily reach the fuel tank door. The arm itself then starts to move, opening the door, selecting the right fuel and finally refueling the car. The whole thing looks great in promotional videos, but after one of them recently became popular online, people brought up a few concerns. First of all, in order for the entire process to work, one needs to have their vehicle registered with Autofuel. That’s information many people have no inclination to share for something as small as refueling. Also, the speed at which the robotic arm operates worries a lot of people as it appears to move much slower than a human. With robots and AI becoming such a big part of our lives lately, it’s easy to imagine solutions like Autofuel becoming mainstream in the near future. But any new innovation has to be tested and improved over and over again. 28．What is a robotic arm’s promotional advantage concerning car refueling? A．It moves faster than a human. B．It doesn’t need car registration. C．It can park cars automatically. D．It requires no human assistance. 29．What does the underlined word “inclination” in Paragraph 4 probably mean? A．Opportunity. B．Permission. C．Willingness. D．Ability. 30．How does the author find the robotic arm? A．It is well accepted. B．It is far from perfect. C．Its structure is strange. D．Its function is meaningless. 31．What is the best title for the text? A．This Robotic Arm Will Refuel Your Car B．An Innovation Has Been Improved Greatly C．Some Negative Views on a Refueling Solution D．A More Efficient Assistant at the Train Station D “While extroverts (性格外向者) often make great first impressions with their outgoing manner and lively personalities in interviews, that value and reputation at work diminish (削减) over time.” says Corinne Bender, an associate professor of management. “Extroverts disappoint us over time when they’re part of a team,” Bender says. “On a team you’re expected to work hard and contribute a lot. But they’re often poor listeners, and they don’t cooperate.” “On the other hand, introverts (性格内向者) work hard on a team because they care what others think of them. They don’t want to be seen as not pulling their weight or contributing 100%,” Bender says. So while companies may be attracted to hiring extroverts because they impress managers greatly in job interviews, bosses also may want to consider whether the extrovert they are considering will be a valuable team player, Bender says. Amy Jen Su and Muriel Maignan Wilkins, two writers, agree and say managers should recognize the strengths of introverted employees, such as their ability to put themselves in others’ shoes. “These team members are often easygoing, which can make them exceptional mentors (良师益友) to more junior staff or particularly good sounding boards when you interact with them in one-on-one situations,” Su says. “Managers must try to help introverts find their voice,” Wilkins says. “Help them see that speaking up is not about self-promotion or being in conflict but rather about offering the team key insights, making better decisions or increasing the efficiency for all.” What about those extroverts who never seem to be at a loss for words? Should managers cut them off? Managers definitely should weigh in on how an extrovert is affecting others. Wilkins suggests saying something in private to make adjustments. 32．What do we know about outgoing people according to Bender? A．They are often good listeners. B．They tend to perform well in interviews. C．They often make great contributions. D．They are often good at cooperating. 33．Which can best replace the underlined part “pulling their weight” in Paragraph 3? A．Doing their full share of work. B．Making good choices. C．Trusting others. D．Trying to share their thoughts. 34．What is Su’s attitude towards Bendersky’s words? A．Critical. B．Approving. C．Doubtful. D．Indifferent. 35．What does Wilkins advise managers to do? A．Promote more introverts. B．Learn to work more efficiently. C．Avoid conflict among employees. D．Encourage introverts to speak up. 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可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Signs that You Are Growing Growing is a lifelong process. Here are the signs that show you are actually growing and not getting stuck in the process. 36 Often, we see how badly people look when they get overly upset due to unimportant things. So the first sign of maturity (成熟) is letting the small things go and not getting angry over a tiny detail that didn’t go as you planned. You start forgiving and understanding other people. When we are young, we are often unforgiving. As we mature, we are better able to understand the world beyond black and white. Becoming more understanding is a sign of strength, not weakness. 37 We begin to understand better that others have complex lives and personalities, and so we become more willing to forgive their mistakes. You always complete things that matter. Immature people don’t know when to commit (承诺) themselves and their energy or resources are always not well employed. 38 In this way, they can often keep their promises and honor their commitments. You accept the possibility of being wrong. 39 They are always able to accept the possibility that they are wrong and that they don’t know something, because there is always more to learn. Being mature is knowing that you are always growing up. You are never done learning and developing. 40 Rather, you open your mind to other ideas and new possibilities. A．You follow the crowd. B．You let the small things go. C．Instead, mature people focus on completing things that matter. D．Immature and mature people can both have plans for their lives. E．This means that you don’t set yourself up as the highest authority. F．It enables us to look beyond the obvious and let go of simple judgments. G．Mature people appear more confident, however, they are not overconfident. 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、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 I’ve always been creative since I was a little girl.

I went to ask some people I know who were adults in the ‘80s and 90s’, and the answer I got was that “Overall, life is a lot 57 (good) now!” This didn’t really surprise me. I mean, these days we’ve got mobile phones and the internet and so on — but 58 (actual) those weren’t the things they talked about. So what did they talk about? For 59 start, we don’t have to work physically hard since now there are a lot of things like dishwashers for housework. Then there’s the matter of how, these days, 60 is possible to work at home — it’s mainly 61 (computer) that have made this possible. Not only that, there’s a lot more 62 (equal) now. It’s easier for all people, whatever their social background, gender (性别), colour and so on, to have equal access 63 a variety of career opportunities. That said, it’s not all a matter of improvement. Quite a few people told me that they feel more stressed these days because they rely a lot on technology and they are always 64 (anxiety) about security on the internet. Plus, we spend a lot of our time 65 (use) smartphones. One person said, “Wouldn’t it be great to be off the grid (不上网) for a few days?” 第四部分　写作(共两节，满分40分) 第一节　(满分15分) 假定你是李华，你的英国朋友Terry就读于天津某国际学校，对传统中国文化非常感兴趣，你校将举办中国传统文化周，请给Terry写封邮件，邀请他参加。内容包括： 1.活动时间地点； 2.邀请Terry参加； 3.介绍活动内容（看京剧，赏国画等）。 注意： 1.写作词数应为80左右； 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 3.参考词汇：京剧Peking Opera 国画：Chinese painting Dear Terry, ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Yours sincerely, Li Hua 第二节　(满分25分) 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。 Armed with two over-packed suitcases,we arrived at the airport just in time for my flight. “Well, here we are, the airport,” my sister said with a sigh. As I watched her unload my luggage, I could see the sadness in her eyes. This was not easy on her either. We had both been dreading (害怕) this moment for the past week. One last hug and a final good-bye and I would be on my way to a new life abroad, leaving my beloved sister behind. All my life I had loved airports. To me they were some kind of magic gateway to the world,a place from which to start great holidays and adventures. But today it seemed like a cold and heartless place. I looked at my sister and even though her eyes were filled with tears, she was trying to keep a brave face. “You’d better go or you’ll miss your flight,” she said. “I’ll miss you,” I replied, and with those last words I was off. As promised, I did not look back, but by the time I reached the customs office I was sobbing (啜泣). “Cheer up, love,” the tall customs officer said with a smile. “It’s not the end of the world, you know.” But to me it was the end of the world, as I had known it. While boarding the plane I was still crying. I did not have the energy to put my bag in the overhead locker, so I stuffed it on the empty seat next to mine. As I settled into my chair, a feeling of sadness overwhelmed me. I felt like my best friend had just been taken away from me. Growing up, my sister and I would do everything together. Born barely fifteen months apart we not only looked alike, we were alike. Whenever one of us need something, the other one would come along. When the time came for us to go to college, we also went together. But now that our college days were over and I was off to a foreign country, all I had left were my memories. 注意： 1.所续写短文的词数应为150左右； 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Paragraph 1: Suddenly the plane shook heavily and the bag next to me fell on the floor. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: I spent the rest of the flight reading about my sister’s diary. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 答案第1页，共2页 原创精品资源学科网独家享有版权，侵权必究！1 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
