B Some parents will buy any high-tech toy if they think it will help their child, but researchers said puzzles help children with math-related skills. Psychologist Susan Levine, an expert on mathematics development in young children at the University of Chicago, found children who play with puzzles between ages 2 and 4 later develop better spatial skills. Puzzle play was found to be a significant (重要的）predictor of cognition（认知）after controlling for differences in parents’ income, education and the amount of parent talk, Levine said. The researchers analyzed（分析）video recordings of 53 child-parent pairs during everyday activities at home and found children who play with puzzles between 26 and 46 months of age have better spatial skills when assessed（评估）at 54 months of age. “The children who played with puzzles performed better than those who did not, on tasks that assessed their ability to rotate（旋转）and translate shapes,” Levine said in a statement. The parents were asked to interact（互动，交流）with their children as they normally would, and about half of the children in the study played with puzzles at one time. Higher-income parents tended（倾向于）to have children play with puzzles more frequently, and both boys and girls who played with puzzles had better spatial skills. However, boys tended to play with more complex puzzles than girls, and the parents of boys provided more spatial language and were more active during puzzle play than the parents of girls. The findings were published in the journal Developmental Science. 24. In which aspect do children benefit from puzzle play? A. Building confidence. B. Learning self-control. C. Developing spatial skills. D. Gaining high-tech knowledge. 25. What did Levine take into consideration when designing her experiment? A. Parents’ education. B. Children’s imagination. C. Parents’ age. D. Child-parent relationship. 26. How do boys differ from girls in puzzle play? A. They play with puzzles more often. B. They tend to talk less during the game. C. They are likely to play with tougher puzzles. D. They prefer to use more spatial language. 27. What is the text mainly about? A. A mathematical method. B. A woman psychologist. C. A teaching program. D. A scientific study. C People traveling long distances frequently have to decide whether they would prefer to go by land, sea, or air. Hardly can anyone positively enjoy sitting in a train for more than a few hours. Train carriages soon get crowded. Reading is only a partial solution, for the monotonous (单调的) rhythm of the wheels clicking on the rails soon makes you sleep. During the day, sleep comes in snatches. While at night you rarely manage to sleep. Inevitably you arrive at your destination almost exhausted. Long car journey are even less pleasant, for it is quite impossible even to read. On motorways you can, at least, travel fairly safely at high speed, but more often than not, the greater span of the journey is spent on narrow, uneven roads which are crowded with traffic. By comparison, trips by sea offer a great variety of civilized comforts. You can stretch your legs on the broad decks, play games, swim, meet interesting people and enjoy good food- always assuming, of course, that the sea is calm. If it is not and you are likely to get seasick, no form of transport could be worse. Even if you travel in ideal weather, sea journeys take a long time . Relatively few people are prepared to sacrifice up to a third of their holidays for the pleasure of traveling on a ship. Airplanes have the reputation of being dangerous and a little expensive. But nothing can match them for speed and comfort. Traveling at a height of 30,000 feet and at over 500 miles an hour is a pleasant experience. For a few hours, you settle back in a deep armchair to enjoy the flight. The real relaxation can be a free film show and some other services. An airplane also offers you an unusual and breathtaking view of the world. You really see the shape of the land. If the landscape is hidden from the view, you can enjoy the extraordinary sight of unbroken cloud plains that stretch on for miles before you, while the sun shines brilliantly in a clear sky. The journey is so smooth that there is nothing to prevent you from reading or sleeping. However you decide to spend your time, one thing is certain: you will arrive at your destination fresh and untired. 28. The author indicates that reading can help lessen_______. A. the boredom of being in the train B. the tiresome clicking of the wheels C. the sleeplessness during the journey D. the poor atmosphere of the carriages 29. What can we learn about the long distance journey by car? A. It is safe because the car usually goes at high speed. B. It is unpleasant because reading is quite impossible . C. It is exhausting because you seldom manage to sleep. D. It is dangerous because the traffic is always too busy . 30. Traveling by air is quite different from traveling by other means in that____. A. traveling by air is not so tiring as the others B. traveling by air brings more fun than the others C. traveling by air is much more expensive than the others D. traveling by air offers more time for sleep than the others 31. What's the purpose of writing this passage? A. To introduce diverse ways of traveling. B. To point out the best means of traveling. C. To emphasize the advantages of traveling. D. To introduce how to relax when traveling D When comparing U.S. and Chinese schools, despite(尽管）many differences, one finds a number of unexpected similarities. Students in both countries, in some ways, have much in common. This includes their experiences with popular culture like technology and social media, mutual care for the environment, and the fact that all were terribly influenced by COVID-19. Students in both countries belong to what might be described as a“TikTok culture,” although this Chinese app is likely more popular in the U.S. than in China itself. The Chinese term kuaicanshi yule, which means fast-food type entertainment, is the better expression, one that conveys “snackable content” for often meme-oriented, fast moving fashion that compete for short attention spans. Whatever the app or device, students have been much influenced by technology, positively and negatively. In fact, Chinese students do face more controls from their schools about their use of social media, although many are good at finding ways to avoid them. Furthermore, many students in both countries are attracted to similar styles, in both fashion and food, in music and film, with Chinese and American students often being similarly up-to-date on the latest hits, including television series. Finally, what both have most in common is the strong wish to live a good life, be successful and secure. The U.S. and China approach these wishes in different ways educationally, but both could learn from each other. This is especially true given the fact that we all live in an increasingly globalized world, and must learn to work together to solve not only global problems like climate change and disease outbreaks, but unfortunate frictions between the U.S. and China. Indeed, with the last point in mind, a significant weakness in the educational systems of both countries is that neither really understands the other. This is not a new problem, but solving it needs serious attention. 32. What can we learn about the students in the U.S. and China from Paragraph 2? A. They show no interest in traditional culture. B. They have chances to experience social media. C. They are satisfied with their living environment. D They were hardly influenced by COVID-19. 33. What do Chinese students face about using social media in school? A. Rules to control. B. Supports from parents. C. Agreement from schools. D. Risk to leave. 34. What do U.S.and Chinese students have in common? A. Schools stop them from using social media. B. They have little interest in television series. C. They achieve their wishes educationally similarly. D. They can't fully understand each other educationally. 35. Which of the following can be the best title? A. U.S.and Chinese Schools B. U.S.and Chinese Students C. Similarities between U.S. and Chinese Students D. Differences between U.S. and Chinese Schools 第二节 七选五（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Everyone at some time feels that their life is going nowhere - and fast. ____36____ then it is time to do something to increase the quality of your life.

Lucky for me, it was a day off, so I was thinking about getting my bank work out of the way. The bank person, an elderly gentleman with a white beard, was, as usual, curt (简短失礼的,简略的) to my polite “Happy New Year.” He nodded and I sat in front of him. Minutes passed but nothing happened. Then very uncertain and embarrassed, I put my form and booklet (小册子) in front of him. He was busy filling up entries in his register (登记簿). After a few minutes he took my form and from his cabinet he took out a very thick file from which he started filling in my details. I sat there wondering why we had computerized banking if we were still filling in forms and registers. After waiting for a few more minutes, in which I showed all signs of being impatient, I asked him if my work was done. The moment I uttered the words, I felt as if a bombshell had fallen on him. He shouted, “Nothing is done, it will take time!” Just then I saw his morning cup of tea which had been lying there for the last ten minutes, untouched. The tea had turned almost cold while he was doing his work. Suddenly I felt what this man, who had been working at this counter for the last God-knows-how-many years, must be feeling when customers like me come who are always in a hurry to get their work done. 根据文本内容从方框中选择恰当的词并用其正确形式填入文本图示中，每词限用一次，有两词为多余选项 （共10小题；每小题1分，共10分） polite sure angry hope go fall push think touch do patient shout On New Year’s Day, I went to get my bank work 76 and said “Happy New Year” to the bank person 77 .
