Hello everyone, I’m studying journalism in university. In the first term, everyone has to do a course called“Creative Thinking and Writing”. At first, I thought it wouldn’t be a problem — but now I’m really anxious because I’m not a creative person at all! I’m scared that I’m going to look stupid and I won’t pass the course, or else I’ll only get through it with great difficulty. Can anyone help me? Some tips on being creative would be good. Thanks a lot. Paul Read what Sarah writes in reply to Paul. Hi Paul, I read your post and can completely relate to it. I’ve been in exactly the same situation — I even did a journalism course, just like you. So here are my thoughts. You say “I’m not a creative person”. Look — everyone’s creative. If you tell yourself you’re not creative, you’ll easily start to believe it. So, the first thing to do is: stop thinking like that. People sometimes talk about“thinking outside the box”. Actually, the box is the way we’ve been brought up to see problems. A central difficulty in our ability to think outside the box is that we must always have a “right” answer, which limits creative thinking. So, try to stop seeing things as “right” or “wrong”. Another problem is that we often find faults with our own ideas before we give them a chance to grow. While you’ re thinking, just try to brainstorm ideas in an enjoyable way — then choose the best ideas later. And don’t worry about looking stupid. If you try an idea and other people laugh at your idea, that’s their problem, not yours. Try to look at the course as a way to have fun. Work hard, don’t hold yourself back, do everything with great interest, and you’ll be fine. Anyway enough from me. I hope these ideas help. Sarah 21. What problem does Paul have? A. He worries about his career life. B. He considers himself not creative. C. He has difficulty understanding things. D. He will fail his course however hard he works. 22. What can we learn from Sarah’s reply? A. She doesn’t get why Paul is afraid. B. She believes each question has the right answer. C. She thinks people should often reflect on their ideas. D. She thinks people should think freely without fear of judgement. 23. From the passage we know that ________. A. Paul and Sarah are strangers B. Paul and Sarah have the same idea C. Paul and Sarah are college classmates D. Paul and Sarah are from the same place B Will Gladstone remembers first learning about the blue-footed booby in his fifth grade science class. They are a symbol of the Galapagos Islands. The blue-footed booby population in the Galapagos has fallen to a third of its size since the1960s. This fact stayed with Will, who grew up bird-watching with his dad around their hometown. Will had never been to the Galapagos, nor seen a blue-footed booby in person, but decided he wanted to help protect them. A few days later, he came up with a plan: He could sell blue socks, the same color as the bird's feet, to raise money for protection efforts. Will set up his online site The Blue Feet Foundation in March 2016. The website was up for three months before Will and his younger brother Matthew sold their first pair of socks. “We reached out to a lot of people and they wouldn't take us seriously...because we were just kids.” But being “just kids” comes with its own strengths. They made an Instagram account for the foundation and started direct-messaging stars. Will says one of their biggest supporters is his longtime favorite hockey player, Kevan Miller. They have sold about 10,000 pairs of socks to customers in 46 countries, raising about $90, 000 after costs. All profits go to the Galapagos Conservancy and the Charles Darwin Foundation, two research and protection organizations based in the Galapagos Islands. Will's and Matthew's efforts are already having a beneficial effect. Their money was used for a blue-footed booby population survey in 2017 by a team of 10 researchers. The researchers report that they did see many more baby birds than in their previous study in 2012. Three years after forming the foundation, Will got to visit the Galapagos on a week-long school trip. And Will finally got to see a blue-footed booby in person. “I was crazily looking around and when l saw one, it was really cool,” Will said. The brothers have won several awards for their work. But they each say the biggest award they've got is perseverance. 24. What inspired Will to protect the blue-footed booby? A. The drop of the birds' number. B. His trip to Galapagos Islands. C. His experience of bird-watching. D. The symbolic meaning of the bird. 25. What did Will and Matthew do while people didn't take them seriously? A. They started The Blue Feet Foundation. B. They asked protection organizations for help. C. They reached out to their classmates and other kids. D. They opened an account and contacted famous people. 26. The money Will and Matthew raised was used to ______. A. take care of more baby birds B. do scientific research on the birds C. attract people to watch the birds D. award people who protect the birds 27 Which of the following words can best describe Will? A. Humorous. B. Generous. C. Determined. D. Creative. C Dr. Wiseman started “the laugh lab” project in September. It is the largest study of humour. Participants (参加者) are invited to log on to the laugh lab website, give a few personal details, tell their favourite jokes and judge the jokes told by other people. The project will last for a year, and the organisers hope to finally discover the world’s funniest joke. But there is also a serious purpose. The researchers want to know what people from different nations and cultures find funny. And they want to find out the differences between the male and female sense of humour. The idea is that if we want to understand each other, we have to find out what makes us laugh. This is a subject that has long attracted psychologists and philosophers. Most of the time, people are not completely honest. We do things that society expects us to and say things that help us get what we want. But laughing cannot be controlled. When we laugh, we tell the truth about ourselves. By December over 10,000 jokes had been submitted (递交). This gave the scientists enough evidence to make early conclusions. It seems that men and women do have different senses of humour, for instance. “Our findings show the major differences in the ways in which males and females use humour,” said Dr. Wiseman. “Males use humour to appear superior to others, while women are more skilled in languages and prefer wordplay.” Researchers also found that there really is such a thing as a national sense of humour. The British enjoy what is usually called “toilet humour”. But the French like their jokes short and sharp: “You’re a high priced lawyer. Will you answer two questions for $500?” “Yes. What’s the second question?” The Germans are famous for not having a sense of humour. But the survey found that German participants were more likely to find submitted jokes funny than any other nationality. Perhaps that proves the point. Is this joke funny? I don’t know, but let’s say yes, just to be safe. Dr. Wiseman and his workmates also submitted jokes created by computers. But none of those who took part in the survey found any of them amusing. Perhaps this is relief. Computers already seem like they can do everything. At least they should leave the funny stuff to us. 28. The purpose of “the laugh lab” project is ______. A. to find the funniest joke in European countries B. to get more personal details about participants C. to know what funny people are like from different nations and cultures D. to find out the differences between the male and female sense of humour 29. We can infer from the passage that ______. A. most of the people all over the world are completely honest B. scientists have collected enough evidence to make final conclusions C. men and women have similar senses of humour D. jokes created by computers are less amusing to people 30. What is the best title for the passage? A. Funny or not? B. Laugh louder! C. Men laugh better D. Watch out for the trap in jokes! D As you leave the Bandhavgarh National Park in India, there is a notice which shows a huge tiger. The notice says, “You may not have seen me, but I have seen you.” There are more than a billion people in India and Indian tigers probably see humans every single day. Tigers can and do kill almost anything they meet in the jungle. However, it is a little strange that attacks on humans are not that frequent. Some people might argue that these attacks were in fact common in the past. But there were far more tigers around in those days. So, to some extent, attacks appear to have been as rare then as they are today. People think it is because of fears, but what exactly are tigers afraid of? Can they really know that we may be even better armed than they are? Surely not. Has the species programmed the experiences of all tigers with humans into its genes to be inherited as instinct? Perhaps. But I think the explanation may be simpler and, in a way, more interesting. I suspect that a tiger’s fear of humans lies in the way he actually observes us visually. Imagine a tiger sees a man who is 1.8 meters tall. A tiger is less than 1 meter tall but he may be up to 3 meters long from head to tail. So when a tiger sees the man face on, it might not be unreasonable for him to assume that the man is 6 meters long. If he met a deer of this size, he might attack the animal by leaping on its back, but when he looks behind the man, he can’t see a back. From the front the man is huge, but looked at from the side he all but disappears. This must be very disturbing. A hunter has to be confident that it can kill its prey, and no one is confident when they are disconcerted. The opposite is true of a squatting human. A squatting human is half the size and presents twice the spread of back, and appears like a medium-sized deer. Many incidents of attacks on people involve villagers bending over to cut grass. The fact that humans stand upright may not just distinguish them from other species, but also help them to survive in an unpredictable environment. 31. As for some people’s opinion on tiger attacks, the author is ________. A. objective B. unconcerned C. supportive D. disapproving 32. Why does the author raise three questions in Paragraph 3? A. To present assumptions. B. To evaluate arguments. C. To question findings. D. To confirm opinions. 33. What does the underlined word “disconcerted” in Paragraph 4 probably mean? A. Confused. B. Annoyed. C. Depressed. D. Surprised. 34. What can we learn from the last two paragraphs? A. It is the genes that cause the tiger’s fear of humans. B. It is hard for a tiger to make out the shape of humans. C. Tigers sense the danger the moment they spot humans. D. Tigers are less confident when facing squatting humans. 第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，共10分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Saving the environment might seem like a tall order, but living an environmentally friendly life is actually quite easy.

And it’s an increasingly popular form of exercise. Rucking is walking with weight on your back. The term “rucking” comes from ruck marching, a core skill used by the military around the world. One of the tests the army normally gives to soldiers is a 12-mile ruck, which they must complete within three hours while carrying a weight of at least 35 pounds. The reason why rucking is growing in popularity is that it’s an easy and all-body exercise. One study in 2019 showed that 10 weeks of weighted walking improved physical performance. Since rucking is usually performed outdoors, there is no doubt that it’s also good for your mental health. Lots of studies suggest that the mental health benefits of being in a natural environment are huge. There are several tips for your rucking when you get started. First don’t be too eager. As with any new exercise, you’ll need to begin slowly. Start with an empty backpack and walk a distance you’ve already done. When you start adding weight to your pack, try something low, like 10% of your body weight. Adding weight is going to put more stress on your ankles, knees, hips and back, so do it gradually. Another option is to start with a weighted vest instead of a backpack. This spreads the weight between your front and back. And of course, don’t forget your feet. Select a comfortable pair of shoes to prevent getting hurt. 40. What is rucking? ______________________________________________________________ 41. Why is rucking popular? ______________________________________________________________ 42. Please decide which part is false in the following statement, then underline it and explain why. ➢ When you start adding weight to your pack, you can try any weight you like. ______________________________________________________________ 43. Besides what are mentioned in the text, what other benefits can rucking have on us?

But 20. has increased##has been increasing 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要讲述Alicudi岛因山羊数量激增而寻求领养者的现状。 【18题详解】 考查定语从句。句意：位于西西里岛北部的Alicudi岛上有太多山羊，正在寻找领养者。空白处引导非限制性定语从句修饰先行词Alicudi，且在从句中作主语，指物，应使用关系代词which，故填which。 【19题详解】 考查连词。句意：但如果你想领养一只，必须亲自捕捉。根据下文“if you want one you will have to catch it yourself(如果你想领养一只)”可知，下文描述领养条件，前后构成语义转折，且位于句首需大写首字母，故填But。 【20题详解】 考查动词时态。句意：过去几年Alicudi岛的山羊数量显著增加。根据时间状语“in the last few years(在过去的几年里)”可知，本句谓语动词可以使用现在完成时表示过去发生的动作对现在的影响，也可以使用现在完成进行时表示从过去开始一直持续到现在的动作，主语The number为单数，故填has increased/has been increasing。 第二部分：阅读理解（共两节，38分） 第一节（共14小题；每小题2分，共28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，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 A Read the post from Paul on the “Answers 4U” website. Hello everyone, I’m studying journalism in university. In the first term, everyone has to do a course called“Creative Thinking and Writing”. At first, I thought it wouldn’t be a problem — but now I’m really anxious because I’m not a creative person at all! I’m scared that I’m going to look stupid and I won’t pass the course, or else I’ll only get through it with great difficulty. Can anyone help me? Some tips on being creative would be good. Thanks a lot. Paul Read what Sarah writes in reply to Paul. Hi Paul, I read your post and can completely relate to it. I’ve been in exactly the same situation — I even did a journalism course, just like you. So here are my thoughts. You say “I’m not a creative person”. Look — everyone’s creative. If you tell yourself you’re not creative, you’ll easily start to believe it. So, the first thing to do is: stop thinking like that. People sometimes talk about“thinking outside the box”. Actually, the box is the way we’ve been brought up to see problems. A central difficulty in our ability to think outside the box is that we must always have a “right” answer, which limits creative thinking. So, try to stop seeing things as “right” or “wrong”. Another problem is that we often find faults with our own ideas before we give them a chance to grow. While you’ re thinking, just try to brainstorm ideas in an enjoyable way — then choose the best ideas later. And don’t worry about looking stupid. If you try an idea and other people laugh at your idea, that’s their problem, not yours. Try to look at the course as a way to have fun. Work hard, don’t hold yourself back, do everything with great interest, and you’ll be fine. Anyway, enough from me. I hope these ideas help. Sarah 21. What problem does Paul have? A. He worries about his career life. B. He considers himself not creative. C. He has difficulty understanding things. D. He will fail his course however hard he works. 22. What can we learn from Sarah’s reply? A. She doesn’t get why Paul is afraid. B. She believes each question has the right answer. C. She thinks people should often reflect on their ideas. D. She thinks people should think freely without fear of judgement. 23. From the passage we know that ________. A. Paul and Sarah are strangers B. Paul and Sarah have the same idea C. Paul and Sarah are college classmates D. Paul and Sarah are from the same place 【答案】21. B 22. D 23. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇应用文。文章是一封网上的求助信和建议信。 【21题详解】 细节理解题。定位到第一个帖子中的第一段“At first, I thought it wouldn’t be a problem- -but now I’m really anxious because I’m not a creative person at all! (起初，我认为这不会是一个问题，但现在我真的很焦虑，因为我根本不是一个有创造力的人！)”可知， Paul认为自己没有创造力。故选B。 【22题详解】 推理判断题。定位到第二个帖子中的第四段“If you try an idea and other people laugh at your idea, that’s their problem, not yours. (如果你尝试一个想法，而其他人嘲笑你的想法，那是他们的问题，而不是你的)”可知，Sarah认为人们应该自由思考，不要害怕判断，故选D。 【23题详解】 判断推理题。根据文中“Read the post from Paul on the “Answers 4U” website.(阅读保罗在“答案4U”网站上的帖子)”以及“I read your post and can completely relate to it. (我读了你的帖子，可以完全理解它)”可知，二人是陌生人。故选A。 B Will Gladstone remembers first learning about the blue-footed booby in his fifth grade science class. They are a symbol of the Galapagos Islands. The blue-footed booby population in the Galapagos has fallen to a third of its size since the1960s. This fact stayed with Will, who grew up bird-watching with his dad around their hometown. Will had never been to the Galapagos, nor seen a blue-footed booby in person, but decided he wanted to help protect them. A few days later, he came up with a plan: He could sell blue socks, the same color as the bird's feet, to raise money for protection efforts. Will set up his online site The Blue Feet Foundation in March 2016. The website was up for three months before Will and his younger brother Matthew sold their first pair of socks. “We reached out to a lot of people and they wouldn't take us seriously...because we were just kids.” But being “just kids” comes with its own strengths. They made an Instagram account for the foundation and started direct-messaging stars. Will says one of their biggest supporters is his longtime favorite hockey player, Kevan Miller. They have sold about 10,000 pairs of socks to customers in 46 countries, raising about $90, 000 after costs. All profits go to the Galapagos Conservancy and the Charles Darwin Foundation, two research and protection organizations based in the Galapagos Islands. Will's and Matthew's efforts are already having a beneficial effect. Their money was used for a blue-footed booby population survey in 2017 by a team of 10 researchers. The researchers report that they did see many more baby birds than in their previous study in 2012. Three years after forming the foundation Will got to visit the Galapagos on a week-long school trip. And Will finally got to see a blue-footed booby in person. “I was crazily looking around and when l saw one, it was really cool,” Will said. The brothers have won several awards for their work. But they each say the biggest award they've got is perseverance. 24. What inspired Will to protect the blue-footed booby? A. The drop of the birds' number. B. His trip to Galapagos Islands. C His experience of bird-watching. D. The symbolic meaning of the bird. 25. What did Will and Matthew do while people didn't take them seriously? A. They started The Blue Feet Foundation. B. They asked protection organizations for help. C. They reached out to their classmates and other kids. D They opened an account and contacted famous people. 26. The money Will and Matthew raised was used to ______. A. take care of more baby birds B. do scientific research on the birds C. attract people to watch the birds D. award people who protect the birds 27 Which of the following words can best describe Will? A. Humorous. B. Generous. C. Determined. D. Creative. 【答案】24. A 25. D 26. B 27. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述一个名叫Will Gladstone的孩子保护加拉帕戈斯蓝脚鲣鸟的故事。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。由文章第二段“The blue-footed booby population in the Galapagos has fallen to a third of its size since the1960s. This fact stayed with Will, who grew up bird-watching with his dad around their hometown. Will had never been to the Galapagos, nor seen a blue-footed booby in person, but decided he wanted to help protect them.(自20世纪60年代以来，加拉帕戈斯蓝脚鲣鸟的数量已下降到其数量的三分之一。这一事实一直伴随着Will，他和父亲一起在家乡观鸟长大。Will从未去过加拉帕戈斯，也没有亲眼见过蓝脚鲣鸟，但他决定要帮助保护他们。)”可知，加拉帕戈斯蓝脚鲣鸟的数量减少的这件事让Will决定帮助它们。故选A项。 【25题详解】 细节理解题。由文章第四段“But being “just kids” comes with its own strengths. They made an Instagram account for the foundation and started direct-messaging stars. Will says one of their biggest supporters is his longtime favorite hockey player, Kevan Miller.(但“只是孩子”有其自身的优势。他们在Instagram上为该基金会注册了账号，并开始了明星直销。威尔说，他们最大的支持者之一是他长期以来最喜欢的曲棍球运动员凯文·米勒。)”可知，他们注册了该基金会账号并联系明星来帮助。故选D项。 【26题详解】 细节理解题。由文章第五段“Their money was used for a blue-footed booby population survey in 2017 by a team of 10 researchers. (他们的资金被一个由100名研究人员组成的团队用于2017年的蓝脚鲣鸟数量调查。)”可知，他们筹集的钱被用来对鸟类进行科学研究了。故选B项。 【27题详解】 推理判断题。由文章最后一段“The brothers have won several awards for their work. But they each say the biggest award they've got is perseverance.(兄弟俩的工作获得了好几个奖项。但他们都说，他们获得的最大奖项是坚持。)”可知，Will很有决心，故选C项。 C Dr. Wiseman started “the laugh lab” project in September. It is the largest study of humour. Participants (参加者) are invited to log on to the laugh lab website, give a few personal details, tell their favourite jokes and judge the jokes told by other people. The project will last for a year, and the organisers hope to finally discover the world’s funniest joke. But there is also a serious purpose. The researchers want to know what people from different nations and cultures find funny. And they want to find out the differences between the male and female sense of humour. The idea is that if we want to understand each other, we have to find out what makes us laugh. This is a subject that has long attracted psychologists and philosophers. Most of the time, people are not completely honest. We do things that society expects us to and say things that help us get what we want. But laughing cannot be controlled. When we laugh, we tell the truth about ourselves. By December over 10,000 jokes had been submitted (递交). This gave the scientists enough evidence to make early conclusions. It seems that men and women do have different senses of humour, for instance. “Our findings show the major differences in the ways in which males and females use humour,” said Dr. Wiseman. “Males use humour to appear superior to others, while women are more skilled in languages and prefer wordplay.” Researchers also found that there really is such a thing as a national sense of humour. The British enjoy what is usually called “toilet humour”. But the French like their jokes short and sharp: “You’re a high priced lawyer. Will you answer two questions for $500?” “Yes. What’s the second question?” The Germans are famous for not having a sense of humour. But the survey found that German participants were more likely to find submitted jokes funny than any other nationality. Perhaps that proves the point. Is this joke funny? I don’t know, but let’s say yes, just to be safe. Dr. Wiseman and his workmates also submitted jokes created by computers. But none of those who took part in the survey found any of them amusing. Perhaps this is relief. Computers already seem like they can do everything. At least they should leave the funny stuff to us. 28. The purpose of “the laugh lab” project is ______. A. to find the funniest joke in European countries B. to get more personal details about participants C. to know what funny people are like from different nations and cultures D. to find out the differences between the male and female sense of humour 29. We can infer from the passage that ______. A. most of the people all over the world are completely honest B. scientists have collected enough evidence to make final conclusions C. men and women have similar senses of humour D. jokes created by computers are less amusing to people 30. What is the best title for the passage? A. Funny or not? B. Laugh louder! C. Men laugh better D. Watch out for the trap in jokes! 【答案】28. D 29. D 30. A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了由Dr. Wiseman发起的“笑实验室”项目，该项目旨在研究不同国家和文化背景下人们的幽默感，特别是男女之间幽默感的差异，并通过收集笑话来分析这些差异。 【28题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“The researchers want to know what people from different nations and cultures find funny. And they want to find out the differences between the male and female sense of humour.(研究人员想知道来自不同国家和文化的人觉得什么有趣。他们想找出男女幽默感的差异。)”可知，“笑实验室”项目的目的之一是找出男女幽默感的差异。故选D。 【29题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Dr. Wiseman and his workmates also submitted jokes created by computers. But none of those who took part in the survey found any of them amusing.(Wiseman博士和他的同事也提交了由电脑创作的笑话。但参与调查的人中没有一个人觉得这些笑话有趣。)”可推断出，电脑创作的笑话对人来说没那么有趣。故选D。 【30题详解】 主旨大意题。文章主要介绍了“笑实验室”项目，该项目旨在研究不同国家和文化背景下人们的幽默感，特别是男女之间幽默感的差异，并通过收集笑话来分析这些差异，从而了解什么会让人发笑，什么不会，所以选项A“有趣还是无趣？”能够概括文章主旨，适合作为文章标题。故选A。 D As you leave the Bandhavgarh National Park in India, there is a notice which shows a huge tiger. The notice says, “You may not have seen me, but I have seen you.” There are more than a billion people in India and Indian tigers probably see humans every single day. Tigers can and do kill almost anything they meet in the jungle. However, it is a little strange that attacks on humans are not that frequent. Some people might argue that these attacks were in fact common in the past. But there were far more tigers around in those days. So, to some extent, attacks appear to have been as rare then as they are today. People think it is because of fears, but what exactly are tigers afraid of? Can they really know that we may be even better armed than they are? Surely not. Has the species programmed the experiences of all tigers with humans into its genes to be inherited as instinct? Perhaps. But I think the explanation may be simpler and, in a way, more interesting. I suspect that a tiger’s fear of humans lies in the way he actually observes us visually. Imagine a tiger sees a man who is 1.8 meters tall. A tiger is less than 1 meter tall but he may be up to 3 meters long from head to tail. So when a tiger sees the man face on, it might not be unreasonable for him to assume that the man is 6 meters long. If he met a deer of this size, he might attack the animal by leaping on its back, but when he looks behind the man, he can’t see a back. From the front the man is huge, but looked at from the side he all but disappears. This must be very disturbing. A hunter has to be confident that it can kill its prey, and no one is confident when they are disconcerted. The opposite is true of a squatting human. A squatting human is half the size and presents twice the spread of back, and appears like a medium-sized deer. Many incidents of attacks on people involve villagers bending over to cut grass. The fact that humans stand upright may not just distinguish them from other species, but also help them to survive in an unpredictable environment. 31. As for some people’s opinion on tiger attacks, the author is ________. A. objective B. unconcerned C. supportive D. disapproving 32. Why does the author raise three questions in Paragraph 3? A. To present assumptions. B. To evaluate arguments. C. To question findings. D. To confirm opinions. 33. What does the underlined word “disconcerted” in Paragraph 4 probably mean? A. Confused. B. Annoyed. C. Depressed. D. Surprised. 34. What can we learn from the last two paragraphs? A. It is the genes that cause the tiger’s fear of humans. B. It is hard for a tiger to make out the shape of humans. C. Tigers sense the danger the moment they spot humans. D. Tigers are less confident when facing squatting humans. 【答案】31. D 32. A 33. A 34. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇议论文。文章主要就老虎袭击人的原因展开讨论，作者认为老虎攻击人是因为很难辨认出人的形状。 【31题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“Some people might argue that these attacks were in fact common in the past. But there were far more tigers around in those days. So, to some extent, attacks appear to have been as rare then as they are today. (有些人可能会争辩说，这些攻击实际上在过去很常见。但那时候老虎的数量要多得多。因此，从某种程度上说，袭击事件在当时和今天一样罕见)”可知，对于一些人对老虎袭击的看法，作者不赞成。故选D。 【32题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“People think it is because of fears, but what exactly are tigers afraid of? Can they really know that we may be even better armed than they are? Surely not. Has the species programmed the experiences of all tigers with humans into its genes to be inherited as instinct? Perhaps. But I think the explanation may be simpler and, in a way, more interesting.(人们认为这是因为恐惧，但老虎到底害怕什么？他们真的知道我们的武器装备比他们更好吗？当然不是。这个物种是否将所有老虎与人类相处的经历编入了自己的基因，并作为本能遗传了下来？也许。但我认为解释可能更简单，在某种程度上也更有趣)”可推知，作者在第3段提出了三个问题是为了提出假设。故选A。 【33题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线词上文“A hunter has to be confident that it can kill its prey, and no one is confident when they are”可知，猎人必须对自己能杀死猎物充满信心，而没有人在对猎物感到困惑时是自信的。故划线词意思是“困惑的”。故选A。 【34题详解】 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“I suspect that a tiger’s fear of humans lies in the way he actually observes us visually. Imagine a tiger sees a man who is 1.8 meters tall. A tiger is less than 1 meter tall but he may be up to 3 meters long from head to tail. So when a tiger sees the man face on, it might not be unreasonable for him to assume that the man is 6 meters long. If he met a deer of this size, he might attack the animal by leaping on its back, but when he looks behind the man, he can’t see a back.(我怀疑老虎对人类的恐惧来自于它观察人类的视觉方式。想象一只老虎看到一个1.8米高的人。老虎不到1米高，但从头到尾可达3米长。因此，当老虎看到这个人的脸时，它可能会认为这个人有6米长。如果他遇到这么大的鹿，他可能会跳到它的背上攻击它，但当他看那个人的背后时，他看不到背影)”以及最后一段“The opposite is true of a squatting human. A squatting human is half the size and presents twice the spread of back, and appears like a medium-sized deer.(而蹲着的人则相反。一个蹲着的人只有一半的大小，两倍的背部伸展，看起来像一只中等大小的鹿)”可知，老虎很难辨认出人的形状。故选B。 第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，共10分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Saving the environment might seem like a tall order, but living an environmentally friendly life is actually quite easy.

B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要就个人如何帮助拯救环境提出了一些建议。 【35题详解】 根据上文“Saving the environment might seem like a tall order, but living an environmentally friendly life is actually quite easy. With just a few small lifestyle changes, you can make a difference.(拯救环境似乎是一项艰巨的任务，但过一种环保的生活其实很容易。只要改变一些小的生活方式，你就能有所作为)”结合后文主要提出了一些环境保护的建议。故G选项“继续读下去，你会得到一些关于个人如何帮助拯救环境的实用建议。”符合语境，故选G。 【36题详解】 根据后文“Check the regulations to ensure you use them properly. For instance, some places may no: accept glass, while others might require you to separate the different materials. If you dispose of something improperly, the whole load will likely be rejected and end up in a landfill.(检查规则，确保你正确使用它们。例如，有些地方可能不接受玻璃，而另一些地方可能要求你把不同的材料分开。如果你处理不当的东西，整个负载可能会被拒绝，并最终在垃圾填埋场)”可知，后文主要介绍了如何利用附近的回收服务。故D选项“每个居民都可以利用附近的回收服务”符合语境，故选D。 【37题详解】 根据标题“Buy locally sourced foods.(购买当地的食物)”以及后文“Shipping products by truck, rail, flight, or boat creates pollution and goes against an environmentally friendly lifestyle. Instead, shop at local farmers’ markets and grocery stores stocking locally - sourced products. Alternatively, use community - supported services to get fresh produce regularly. (通过卡车、铁路、飞机或船只运输产品会造成污染，违背环保的生活方式。相反，在当地的农贸市场和杂货店购买当地采购的产品。或者，使用社区支持的服务定期获取新鲜农产品)”可知，本段的主旨是吃当地的食物，F选项中local对应标题locally。故F选项“吃新鲜的当地食物消耗更少的燃料和包装材料”符合语境，故选F。 【38题详解】 根据上文“Applying alternate forms of transportation consumes less gasoline. Walk or ride a bike whenever possible. If that isn’t an option, consider organizing carpools or using public transportation.(采用替代的交通方式消耗较少的汽油。尽可能步行或骑自行车。如果没有办法，可以考虑拼车或使用公共交通工具)”可知，本句承接上文，说明选择拼车或公共交通的作用。故C选项“通过这样做，你可以帮助减少交通堵塞和汽油消耗总量”符合语境，故选C。 【39题详解】 根据本段内容“Advocacy allows more people to create a positive impact. Spread the word about environmental conservation by sharing some of the lifestyle changes you’ve made on social media and in conversations with people around, calling on everybody to play a role.(倡导让更多的人产生积极的影响。通过在社交媒体和与周围人的对话中分享你所做的一些生活方式的改变来传播环境保护的信息，呼吁每个人都发挥作用)”可知，本段的主旨是鼓励他人加入到保护环境活动中。故B选项“鼓励他人帮助拯救环境”符合语境，故选B。 第三部分：书面表达（共三节，37分） 第一节 阅读表达（共4小题；第40、41题各2分，第42题3分，第43题5分，共12分） 阅读下面短文，根据题目要求用英文回答问题。请在答题卡指定区域作答。 If you enjoy walking for exercise, there’s a simple way to meet your demand—change your walk into a ruck. And it’s an increasingly popular form of exercise. Rucking is walking with weight on your back. The term “rucking” comes from ruck marching, a core skill used by the military around the world. One of the tests the army normally gives to soldiers is a 12-mile ruck, which they must complete within three hours while carrying a weight of at least 35 pounds. The reason why rucking is growing in popularity is that it’s an easy and all-body exercise. One study in 2019 showed that 10 weeks of weighted walking improved physical performance. Since rucking is usually performed outdoors, there is no doubt that it’s also good for your mental health. Lots of studies suggest that the mental health benefits of being in a natural environment are huge. There are several tips for your rucking when you get started. First, don’t be too eager. As with any new exercise, you’ll need to begin slowly. Start with an empty backpack and walk a distance you’ve already done. When you start adding weight to your pack, try something low, like 10% of your body weight. Adding weight is going to put more stress on your ankles, knees, hips and back, so do it gradually. Another option is to start with a weighted vest instead of a backpack. This spreads the weight between your front and back. And of course, don’t forget your feet. Select a comfortable pair of shoes to prevent getting hurt. 40. What is rucking? ______________________________________________________________ 41. Why is rucking popular? ______________________________________________________________ 42. Please decide which part is false in the following statement, then underline it and explain why. ➢ When you start adding weight to your pack, you can try any weight you like. ______________________________________________________________ 43. Besides what are mentioned in the text, what other benefits can rucking have on us? (In about 40 words) ______________________________________________________________ 【答案】40. Walking with weight on your back. 41. It’s an easy and all-body exercise. 42. When you start adding weight to your pack, you can try any weight you like. According to Paragraph 4, it says that when you start adding weight to your pack, you can try something low, like 10% of your body weight, not any weight you like. 43. Rucking can significantly improve heart health. Just like jogging, regular rucking makes the heart work harder and stronger. It also aids in stress relief. The fresh air and natural beauty during outdoor rucking help us relax and clear our minds. 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了“负重行走”这种日益流行的锻炼方式，解释了其定义、受欢迎的原因，并提供了一些对初学者的建议。 【40题详解】 考查细节理解。根据文章第二段“Rucking is walking with weight on your back.(负重行走是在背上负重行走)”可知，负重行走就是在背上负重行走，故答案为Rucking is walking with weight on your back。 【41题详解】 考查细节理解。根据文章第三段“The reason why rucking is growing in popularity is that it’s an easy and all-body exercise. One study in 2019 showed that 10 weeks of weighted walking improved physical performance. Since rucking is usually performed outdoors, there is no doubt that it’s also good for your mental health(负重行走越来越受欢迎的原因是它是一种简单且全身的锻炼。2019年的一项研究表明，10周的负重行走可以改善身体表现。由于负重行走通常在户外进行，毫无疑问，它对心理健康也有好处)”可知，负重行走之所以受欢迎，是因为它是一种简单且全身的锻炼，可以改善身体表现，对心理健康也有好处，故答案为Rucking is popular because it’s an easy and all-body exercise that improves physical performance and is good for mental health。 【42题详解】 考查细节理解。根据文章倒数第二段“When you start adding weight to your pack, try something low, like 10% of your body weight. Adding weight is going to put more stress on your ankles, knees, hips and back, so do it gradually(当你开始给背包增加重量时，尝试一些低重量，比如你体重的10%。增加重量会对你的脚踝、膝盖、臀部和背部施加更多的压力，所以要逐渐增加)”可知，开始增加重量时，不能随意选择重量，应该从低重量开始，逐渐增加，以免受伤。因此，题干中的“you can try any weight you like(你可以尝试任何你喜欢的重量)”的表述是错误的，故答案为When you start adding weight to your pack, you can try any weight you like. Explanation: This statement is false because you should start with a low weight, such as 10% of your body weight, and add weight gradually to avoid injury。 【43题详解】 考查开放性试题。根据文章第三段“The reason why rucking is growing in popularity is that it’s an easy and all-body exercise. One study in 2019 showed that 10 weeks of weighted walking improved physical performance. Since rucking is usually performed outdoors, there is no doubt that it’s also good for your mental health(负重行走越来越受欢迎的原因是它是一种简单且全身的锻炼。2019年的一项研究表明，10周的负重行走可以改善身体表现。由于负重行走通常在户外进行，毫无疑问，它对心理健康也有好处)”可知，负重行走之所以受欢迎，是因为它是一种简单且全身的锻炼，可以改善身体表现，对心理健康也有好处。根据常识，除了这些好处之外，负重行走还可以改善心血管健康，增加耐力，并为像跑步这样的高冲击运动提供一个低冲击的替代方案，故答案为Rucking can also improve cardiovascular health, increase endurance, and provide a low-impact alternative to high-impact exercises like running。 第二节 选词填空（共5小题；每小题1分，共5分） 用所给词组的正确形式完成下列句子。 do one’s part; in a bad mood; have a reputation for; be eager to; take action 44. Human activity has affected all types of species that we depend on for living, so we need to __________________ to avoid the sixth mass extinction. 45. We all know that if we are __________________ we are likely to express negative attitudes and feelings. 46.
