B。理解具体信息。根据第一段中的 after noticing that all of The New York Times puzzles had bylines, I figured, “Why couldn’t one of them be mine? ”可知，作者看到《纽约时报》的字谜都有署名行，然后就打算亲自设计字谜。 5. D。推断。根据第二段中的 After reading, rereading, and more rereading of my puzzle, I decided that it was as good as it was ever going to be 和 His answer was basically, “Thanks, but no thanks. ” What’s worse, I received nearly the same rejection from Shortz and his colleagues for the next several puzzles I submitted可知，作者对自己设计的字谜很有信心，但是得到的回复都是拒绝由此可推断，这种落差会让他感到失望。 6. C。理解具体信息。根据第三段中的 an actual acceptance message from The New York Times! They changed some of the clues to be more straightforward. Anyway, my hard work finally paid off. Naturally, I told all my friends and family to get a copy of the paper on the publication date, March 21, 2021 可知，在Mark的帮助下，作者的付出终于有了回报。《纽约时报》对其字谜稍作修改后，使线索更明了，然后刊登在2021年3月21日出版的那期报纸上。 7. B。推断。根据最后一段中的 Now I’ve made a lot in my spare time 可知，作者利用业余时间已经设计了很多字谜，由此可见他对字谜的热爱是坚定不移的。 C 8==11 BDAB 主题语境：人与自然——自然生态 本文是说明文。槲寄生虽然靠寄生生存，却乐善好施，堪称植物界的盗侠罗宾汉。 8. B。理解具体信息。根据第一段中的 They are parasites and live on the branches of their plant “hosts, ” absorbing water and nutrients to survive. They accomplish this thievery via a specialized structure that infects their hosts可知，槲寄生依靠植物宿主吸收水分和养分来生存。它们通过一种专门的结构来完成这种偷窃行为，而且会感染它们的宿主。由此可知，槲寄生对它们的宿主有害。 9. D。推断。根据第二段中的 mistletoe species may well be the Robin Hoods of plants.（Robin Hood is a character in old English stories who lives in a forest with a group of friends and steals money from rich people in order to give it to poor people.）They provide food, shelter and hunting grounds for other animals 可知，在英国的古老故事中，罗宾汉和一群朋友从富人那里偷钱，然后把钱给了穷人。槲寄生同样通过寄生宿主为其它动物提供食物、住所和捕猎场所，这一点与罗宾汉相似。 10. A。理解具体信息。根据第三段中的 Most mistletoe fruits are berries containing a single seed that’s surrounded by a sticky layer. Roughly 90 bird species are known to consume mistletoe species’ seeds, so the birds can pass them to other trees on their bodies, or when they are eaten, seeds are passed through their waste可知，大都数槲寄生果实都是浆果，只有一颗种子，周围有一层粘性物质，它们通过鸟的身体传到其它树木上去，或者当它们被鸟吃掉后，它们的种子会通过鸟的排泄物传送出去。 11. B。理解具体信息。根据最后一段中的They evolved over and over and over, and this understory, root-parasitic, shrubby thing switched to being an aerial（meaning they infect above-ground plant parts, rather than roots）, parasitic shrubby thing 可知，Watson解释了槲寄生的进化过程，它们从在树根生活进化到在树枝生活。 D 12=== 15. CDDB 主题语境：人与社会——社会与文化 本文是一篇科研说明文，介绍了针对孩子做的棉花糖实验，论述的是成人面临的 “棉花糖实验”的应该如何反应。 12. 事实细节题。第一段介绍了 Mischel 中的棉花糖实验，根据本段中“Each child was told if they waited for 15 minutes before eating the treat, they would be given a second treat. ”在可知，在 Mischel 的实验中，如果孩子可以等等 15 。分钟后再吃糖，就能得到第二份糖果奖励。C项Delay eating for fifteen minutes 同义替换原文中的 waited for 15 minutes before eating the treat 。 13. 推理判断题。根据第三段中的 “But as we’ve reshaped the world around us, dramatically reducing the cost and effort involved in obtaining calories, we still have the same brains we had thousands of years ago, and this mismatch is...why so many of us struggle to resist tempting foods that we know we shouldn’t eat. ”可知，存在这样一种不匹配：虽然现在我们获取卡路里所需付出的成本和努力大幅降低，但是我们几千年前已形成的大脑，机制并没有改变。其中，D项中的 rich food supply 同义替换原文中的dramatically reducing the cost and effort involved in obtaining calories; our unchanged brains 同义替换原文中的 we still have the same brains we had thousands of years ago 。 14. 推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“...we also need to be more thoughtful about our information consumption, resisting the temptation of the mental “junk food” in order to manage our time most effectively. ” 可知，作者建议人们应该谨慎对待信息消费，抵挡 “精神垃圾 ” 的诱惑，高效管理自己的时间，也就是说人们应该做个有选择的信息消费者。其中D项中的selective 的同义替换原文中的 thoughtful 和和 resisting the temptation of the mental “junk food”；consumers 同义替换原文中的 consumption 。 15. 主旨大意题。第一段介绍了 Mischel 针对孩子做的棉花糖实验：用糖作为诱惑，观察孩子能否抵抗住诱惑，延迟满足。第二段指出在生活中，成人每天都面临类似的棉花糖实验，这个诱惑不是糖果，而是电脑、手机和平板电脑等设备以及这些设备带给我们的各种信息；第三、四段分析了原因并在第四段给出了建议。因此，全文重点论述的是成人面临的 “棉花糖实验 ”。 第二节 主题语境：人与自我——生活 本文是说明文。晕动病，也称为运动病，是指人们平日常说的“晕车、晕船、晕机”等情况，本文主要就此进行了介绍和说明。 16. D。根据该空前的It is not a rare disorder可知，晕动病并非罕见疾病，任何身处运动环境中的人都可能产生这种不适的生理反应。D 项中的 Instead, anyone may suffer 与该空前的 It is not a rare disorder和该空后的all people can develop呼应。 17. A。本段简要介绍了诱发晕动病的主要原因，即：人体主要依靠前庭、视觉和本体感觉系统来感受和控制身体平衡，当大脑的运动指令和感觉反馈不一致时，就容易产生冲突导致晕动病的发生，故 A 项作为本段小标题最恰当。本段中的arises from与A项中的causes呼应。 18. E。根据本段小标题What are the symptoms of motion sickness? 和该 空前 的 stomach awareness、vomiting、a cold sweat、headache、spatial disorientation 以及 a sense of sleepiness可知，设空处应该是与晕动病症状相关的信息，故 E项内容符合此处语境。 19. G。根据该空前的 when traveling, sitting in areas that experience the least amount of movement可知，乘坐交通工具旅行时要选择颠簸最少的区域。G项中的the lowest level in trains and buses 和 close to the water level in boats 与之相呼应。 20. B。根据该空前的 Many children feel better as soon as the vehicle they are riding in stops, and they’re able to get out and walk around和该空后的 In some children, motion sickness symptoms can last for several hours 可知，不同的人的晕动病症状持续时长也不一样，B 项内容在此表示转折关系，引出与之相反的情况。 语言知识运用 第一节 主题语境：人与自我——做事 本文是记叙文。中国戏剧艺术研究院的一名大二学生和朋友一起去北京动物园过生日，没想到却意外成就了一番终身的事业。 21.

I’d solved newspaper crossord puzzles for many years, but I had little patience and wasn’t very good. So when I started my crosswording again during those long trips, I was determined to become a better solver. However, after noticing that all of The New York Times puzzles had bylines（署名行）, I figured, “Why couldn’t one of them be mine? ” I bought crossword construction software and a dictionary of valid crossword puzzle entries. I started with a blank 15×15 grid（网格）. After reading, rereading, and more rereading of my puzzle, I decided that it was as good as it was ever going to be. So I sent it off to The Times and anxiously waited for their response. Several weeks later, I received an email from a staffer writing on behalf of editor Will Shortz. His answer was basic, “Thanks, but no thanks. ” What’s worse, I received nearly the same rejection from Shortz and his colleagues for the next several puzzles I submitted. Then I found my way to the Crossword Puzzle Collaboration Directory group on Facebook. In the group I connected with Mark, a more experienced constructor who became my teacher. After making some edits for my 21×21 grid at Mark’s suggestion, I sent the puzzle off to The New York Times. A few months later, I got something new in my inbox: an actual acceptance message from The New York Times! They changed some of the clues to be more straightforward. Anyway, my hard work finally paid off. Naturally, I told all my friends and family to get a copy of the paper on the publication date, March 21, 2021. Now I’ve made a lot in my spare time. Even if constructing a puzzle feels like an impossible task from time to time, it’s probably not. Very few things in life are truly impossible. 4. What did the author intend to do after seeing the bylines? A. Apply to be a crossword puzzle editor. B. Create crossword puzzles by himself. C. Solve some challenging word games. D. Develop crossword construction software. 5. How did the author probably feel about the responses from The Times? A. Grateful. B. Hopeful. C. Uninterested. D. Disappointed. 6. What happened to the author’s work with Mark’s help? A. It achieved great popularity. B. It was changed into a smaller grid. C. It was published after being made simpler. D. It became something impossible to be outdone. 7. What can we infer about the author from the text? A. He wrote to Shortz frequently for advice. B. He is a committed amateur puzzle builder. C. He works full-time at The New York Times. D. He started solving newspaper puzzles in 2012. C Worldwide, there are more than a thousand mistletoe（槲寄生）species. They grow on every continent except Antarctica. They are parasites（寄生物）and live on the branches of their plant “hosts”, absorbing water and nutrients to survive. They accomplish this thievery via a specialized structure that infects their hosts. In fact, they infect plants of all kinds, including themselves — a number of species have been documented parasitizing other mistletoe species. Yet despite their parasitism, mistletoe species may well be the Robin Hoods of plants.（Robin Hood is a character in old English stories who lives in a forest with a group of friends and steals money from rich people in order to give it to poor people.）They provide food, shelter and hunting grounds for other animals. Fallen mistletoe leaves release nutrients into the forest floor that would otherwise remain locked within trees, and this generosity benefits the food chain. “Yes, ecologically, they are cheats, ”says David Watson, a community ecologist at Charles Sturt University at Albury-Wodonga, Australia. But they share their wealth. “They steal these nutrients, and then they drop them, ” Watson says. Mistletoe species depend critically on animals to get around. Most mistletoe fruits are berries containing a single seed that’s surrounded by a sticky layer. Roughly 90 bird species are known to consume mistletoe species’ seeds, so the birds can pass them to other trees on their bodies, or when they are eaten, seeds are passed through their waste.（There are exceptions: Some mistletoe species make explosive fruits that send their seeds toward nearby trees, reaching distances of 10 meters or more.） Scientists have known that mistletoe species all have ancestors that were parasites not on branches, but on roots. “They evolved over and over and over, and this understory, root-parasitic, shrubby thing switched to being an aerial（meaning they infect above-ground plant parts, rather than roots）, parasitic shrubby thing, ” Watson says. Moving up the tree helped to solve a problem that all plants are faced with: competing for sunlight. Despite their parasitic nature, most mistletoe species still use energy from light to make their food. 8. What can we learn about mistletoe species according to paragraph 1? A. They are highly independent. B. They are harmful to their hosts. C. They can be found on every continent. D. They prefer to live on the roots of plants. 9. In what way are mistletoe species similar to Robin Hood? A. They help poorly grown trees absorb more nutrients. B. They have remarkable abilities to survive in the forest. C. They live in the forest with other plant species in groups. D. They steal and give food to many other living things. 10. How do most mistletoe species spread their seeds? A. With the help of birds. B. By making explosive fruits. C. With the help of nearby trees. D. By taking advantage of hosts’ seeds. 11. What does Watson tell us about the evolutionary development of mistletoe species? A. They eventually evolved into shrubby plants. B. Their habitats changed from roots to branches. C. They tried to give up using energy from sunlight. D. Their parasitic nature was formed in a gradual way. D The Stanford marshmallow（棉花糖）test was originally conducted by psychologist Walter Mischel in the late 1960s. Children aged four to six at a nursery school were placed in a room. A single sugary treat, selected by the child, was placed on a table. Each child was told if they waited for 15 minutes before eating the treat, they would be given a second treat. Then they were left alone in the room. Follow-up studies with the children later in life showed a connection between an ability to wait long enough to obtain a second treat and various forms of success. As adults we face a version of the marshmallow test every day. We’re not tempted（诱惑）by sugary treats, but by our computers, phones, and tablets — all the devices that connect us to the global delivery system for various types of information that do to us what marshmallows do to preschoolers. We are tempted by sugary treats because our ancestors lived in a calorie-poor world, and our brains developed a response mechanism to these treats that reflected their value — a feeling of reward and satisfaction. But as we’ve reshaped the world around us, dramatically reducing the cost and effort involved in obtaining calories, we still have the same brains we had thousands of years ago, and this mismatch is at the heart of why so many of us struggle to resist tempting foods that we know we shouldn’t eat. A similar process is at work in our response to information. Our formative environment as a species was information-poor, so our brains developed a mechanism that prized new information. But global connectivity has greatly changed our information environment. We are now ceaselessly bombarded（轰炸）with new information. Therefore, just as we need to be more thoughtful about our caloric consumption, we also need to be more thoughtful about our information consumption, resisting the temptation of the mental “junk food” in order to manage our time most effectively. 12. What did the children need to do to get a second treat in Mischel’s test? A. Take an examination alone. B. Show respect for the researchers. C. Delay eating for fifteen minutes. D. Share their treats with others. 13. According to paragraph 3, there is a mismatch between . A. the calorie-poor world and our good appetites B. the shortage of sugar and our nutritional needs C. the tempting foods and our efforts to keep fit D. the rich food supply and our unchanged brains 14. What does the author suggest readers do? A. Absorb new information readily. B. Protect the information environment. C. Use diverse information sources. D. Be selective information consumers. 15. Which of the following is the best title for the text? A. Eat Less, Read More B. The Marshmallow Test for Grownups C. The Later, the Better D. The Bitter Truth about Early Humans 第二节 七选五（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。 Motion Sickness Motion sickness occurs when certain kinds of motion make an individual feel ill. It is not a rare disorder. 16 Although all people can develop motion sickness if exposed to a sufficiently intense stimulus, some people are more likely to be affected. 17 Motion sickness typically arises from inconsistencies between the sensory systems involved in the perception of motion, including the vestibular, visual, and proprioceptive（本体感受的）systems. The vestibular system is responsible for one’s sense of balance and movement direction while the proprioceptive system carries sensory information from the joints and muscles all over the body. What are the symptoms of motion sickness? The earliest symptom of motion sickness is usually a feeling of discomfort in the abdomen, known as stomach awareness. This is often followed by vomiting. Some individuals may also experience a cold sweat, headache, spatial disorientation（空间定向障碍）, and a sense of sleepiness that may continue well after the motion stimulus has ended. 18 How is motion sickness treated? Certain behavioral strategies are often recommended, such as avoiding travel in bad weather conditions, and when traveling, sitting in areas that experience the least amount of movement. 19 Other tips that may help prevent motion sickness include avoiding focusing on phones or other screens, maps, or books while traveling in a moving vehicle. How long does motion sickness last? Symptoms of motion sickness can occur within minutes of experiencing motion and may last for hours after the motion stimulus has ended. Many children feel better as soon as the vehicle they are riding in stops, and they’re able to get out and walk around. 20 In some children, motion sickness symptoms can last for several hours. A. What causes motion sickness? B. However, this isn’t always a guarantee. C. Who may suffer from motion sickness easily? D. Instead, anyone may suffer when experiencing real or perceived motion. E. In rare cases, severe problems, such as the inability to walk, may also occur. F. As a matter of fact, the visual system detects motion but the body remains still. G. This is usually the lowest level in trains and buses, as well as close to the water level in boats. 第三节 完型填空（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。 In 2014, a sophomore student at the National Academy of Chinese Theatre Arts went with friends for a birthday 21 to Beijing Zoo.
