A New Zealand man playing his first-ever competitive Scrabble game (拼字游戏) in Spanish has won the board game’s Spanish-language world title — despite not being able to speak the Spanish language. Nigel Richards, a professional player who holds five English-language world titles, won the Spanish World Scrabble championships in Granada, Spain, in November, losing one game out of 24.
“Richards started memorizing the language’s Scrabble word list a year ago,” his friend Liz Fagerlund — a New Zealand Scrabble official — told The Associated Press.
“He can’t understand why other people can’t just do the same thing,” Liz Fagerlund said. “He can look at a block of words together, and once they go into his brain as a picture he can just recall that very easily.”
Nothing like the New Zealander’s achievement had ever happened in Spanish Scrable according to Alejandro Terenzani, a contest organizer, who said, “It was impossible to react negatively; you can only be amazed.”
Richards has done this before. In 2015, he became the French-language Scrabble world champion, despite not speaking French. He took the French title again in 2018.
Richards is recognized in international Scrabble as the greatest player of all time. In 2008 he became the first player ever to hold the world US and British titles at the same time, despite having to “forget” 40,000 English words that do not appear in the American Scrabble word list to win in the US.
Scrabble does not require players to know the definitions of words, only what combinations of letters are allowed, but native speakers do have an advantage. Richards’ mother once told a New Zealand newspaper that he was not excellent at English in school, never attended university, and took a mathematical approach to the game rather than a linguistic (语言学的) one.
4. What is a must to play a Scrabble game?
A. Memorizing a word list. B. Building picture blocks.
C. Being fluent in multiple languages. D. Winning titles in spelling competitions.
5. What did Alejandro Terenzani think of Richards’ achievement?
A. Integrated. B. Inspiring. C. Unsustainable. D. Unmatched.
6. How is the American Scrabble game different from the English one?
A. They involve different skill sets. B. They award winners in different ways.
C. They have different word coverage. D. They require different registration processes.
7. What did Richards’ mother say about him?
A. He learned five languages. B. He performed excellently at university.
C. He owed his success to a special approach. D. He took advantage of being a native Spanish speaker.
【答案】4. A 5. D 6. C 7. C
【解析】

【5题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段“Nothing like the New Zealander’s achievement had ever happened in Spanish Scrable according to Alejandro Terenzani, a contest organizer, who said, “It was impossible to react negatively; you can only be amazed.”(比赛组织者亚历杭德罗·特伦扎尼说,在西班牙语拼字游戏中,从来没有出现过像这位新西兰人这样的成就。你只会感到惊奇。”)”可知,亚历杭德罗·特伦扎尼对理查兹的成就是无可匹敌的。故选D。
【6题详解】
细节理解题。根据第六段“In 2008 he became the first player ever to hold the world US and British titles at the same time, despite having to “forget” 40,000 English words that do not appear in the American Scrabble word list to win in the US.(2008年,他成为第一位同时获得美国和英国拼字游戏世界冠军的选手,尽管他必须“忘记”4万个没有出现在美国拼字游戏单词表上的英语单词才能在美国获胜)”可知,两者有不同的文字覆盖率。故选C。
【7题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段“Richards’ mother once told a New Zealand newspaper that he was not excellent at English in school, never attended university, and took a mathematical approach to the game rather than a linguistic (语言学的) one.(理查兹的母亲曾对一家新西兰报纸说,理查兹在学校的英语不太好,也没上过大学,他玩足球时用的是数学方法,而不是语言方法)”可知,理查兹把自己的成功归功于一种特殊的方法。故选C。
C
Ninety-year-old Laura found a new social life at 82 years old by joining a community center with a pool. She began swimming regularly and she enjoyed affordable lunches, danced to DJ music, and made friends. Research shows that people with strong social connections tend to be positive towards life and are 50% more likely to live longer than those who live alone.
Scientists from Brigham Young University analyzed 148 studies involving over 300,000 participants and found that satisfying social lives are as beneficial for longevity(长寿)as quitting smoking and may even be more crucial than exercise or losing weight. Social connections can influence health through buffering, where support from others helps us adapt emotionally to challenges, reducing stress-caused hormones that weaken the immune(有免疫力)system.
Rebeca, a professor at Harvard University, adds something to this understanding by pointing out the impact of our beliefs about aging on healthy longevity. Her studies show that old people with positive views of aging are much better able to run daily routines. They’re more likely to recover from a disabling injury. Her research also suggests that positive attitudes towards aging offer protection against cognitive(认知的)decline.
Rebeca finds people with a positive view of aging lived an average of 8 years longer than those with a negative one. She explains that beliefs are powerful because people with a positive mindset about aging tend to have a good diet and active lifestyle. They also have lower levels of stress hormones. Rebeca emphasizes that age beliefs can be shifted. In one study, adults who wrote about a healthy older person’s life once a week for four weeks showed a significant decline in negative perceptions of aging.
Despite the growing elderly population, negative views about aging have worsened, as is shown by Rebeca’s analysis of a 200-year database of over 400 million words. The language used around aging has become more negative and dismissive since the late 1800s.Rebeca argues that labeling aging as a disease ignores the strengths and growth potential in later life.
8. What does Laura’s example imply?
A. The challenges of quitting smoking.
B. The role of exercise in overan health.
C. The possibility of physical disability of the elderly.
D. The power of social connections on healthy longevity.
9. What does the underlined word“buffering” in paragraph 2 mean?
A. Affecting everyday tasks.
B. Reducing the harmful effects.
C. Weakening the immune system.
D. Leading to emotional stress.
10. Which point of view will Rebeca agree with?
A. Aging should be treated as a disease.
B. Writing helps to slow down cognitive decline.
C. Positive mindset can be formed through practice.
D. People are becoming more respectful to the elderly.
11. How did Rebeca learn about the change of people’s attitude towards aging?
A. By making interviews.
B. By analyzing a database.
C. By observing a social trend.
D. By comparing research findings.
【答案】8. D 9. B 10. C 11. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文,主要介绍了社交关系和积极心态对健康长寿的影响。文章通过Laura的例子、科学研究和Rebeca的观点,阐述了社交关系和积极心态对老年人健康的重要性。
【8题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第一段“Ninety-year-old Laura found a new social life at 82 years old by joining a community center with a pool. She began swimming regularly and she enjoyed affordable lunches, danced to DJ music, and made friends. Research shows that people with strong social connections tend to be positive towards life and are 50% more likely to live longer than those who live alone.(九十岁的Laura在82岁时通过加入一个有游泳池的社区中心找到了新的社交生活。她开始定期游泳,享受实惠的午餐,随着DJ音乐跳舞,并结交了朋友。研究表明,拥有强大社交关系的人往往对生活持积极态度,并且比独居的人长寿的可能性高出50%。)”可知,Laura的例子展示了社交关系对健康长寿的积极影响。故选D。
【9题详解】
词句猜测题。根据文章第二段“Social connections can influence health through buffering, where support from others helps us adapt emotionally to challenges, reducing stress-caused hormones that weaken the immune(有免疫力)system.(社会关系可以通过buffering影响健康,即来自他人的支持帮助我们情感上适应挑战,减少削弱免疫系统的压力激素)”可知,减少削弱免疫系统的压力激素,可以减少有害影响。所以“buffering”意为“减少有害影响”。故选B。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第四段“Rebeca emphasizes that age beliefs can be shifted. In one study, adults who wrote about a healthy older person’s life once a week for four weeks showed a significant decline in negative perceptions of aging.(Rebeca强调,年龄观念是可以改变的。在一项研究中,成年人每周写一次关于健康老年人生活的文章,持续四周后,他们对衰老的负面看法显著减少)”可推知,Rebeca认为积极心态可以通过练习形成。故选C。
【11题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第五段“Despite the growing elderly population, negative views about aging have worsened, as is shown by Rebeca’s analysis of a 200-year database of over 400 million words.(尽管老年人口不断增长,但对老龄化的负面看法却越来越严重,正如Rebeca对200年数据库中超过4亿字的分析所显示的那样)可知,Rebeca通过分析数据库了解人们对衰老态度的变化。故选B。
D
One sunny afternoon, three-year-old Aisha, an orangutan at the San Diego Zoo, played outside while her father sat nearby. Aisha took a toy and waved it at him. When he didn't respond, Aisha waved the toy in her dad s face and brushed it across the top of his head, making it harder for him to ignore her. Finally, he gave in and watched her. Aisha’s behavior suggests that great apes (类人猿) engage in playful teasing (戏弄) just like humans and that the roots of human humor can go back 1.3 million years to the common ancestors of apes and humans.
A study led by Federico Rosson of the University of California includes orangutans, chimpanzees, bonobos, and gorillas in zoos. They carried out a video-based study and identified social interactions that contain a mix of playful and annoying elements. They focused on characteristics such as one-sided provocation (挑衅), surprise, looking at the target’s face, and repetition of the behavior.
Despite living in different social structures and environments, all four species of great apes tease one another in similar ways. A teaser might grab another’s hand or foot to stop their activity. Sometimes apes hid under objects when teasing, reaching out a hand suddenly to pull someone’s hair. Targets tended to ignore teasers or try to gently get them away. Sometimes they responded positively with play, or teasing of their own. Other times they just got up and left.
While doing playful teasing, the teaser has to predict the target’s response and adjust their behavior based on how the target is likely to respond. Learning to predict how others will respond is a critical skill for highly social animals.
The study of playful teasing may not be limited to apes. “We suspect that other highly social animals such as parrots, dolphins, elephants, whales, and dogs, may also engage in this behavior,” said co-researcher, Isabelle Laumer. To gather more data, researchers have surveyed zookeepers and are collecting stories of animal teasing from around the world.
12. Why did Aisha wave a toy at her father?
A. To have fun playfully.
B. To copy human behavior.
C. To attract his attention to her head.
D. To show annoyance for ignoring her.
13. What is paragraph 3 mainly about?
A. The subjects of the study.
B. The findings of the study.
C. The approach of the study.
D The structure of the study.
14. What can be learned about the apes?
A. The target feels angry at the teaser.
B. The teaser focuses on the target’s face.
C. The teaser predicts the target’s response.
D. The target adapts to the build of the teaser.
15. What is a suitable title for the text?
A. Humor Is Older than Humans.
B. Playful Teasing Is Conducted Across Species.
C. Study Discovers the Secret of Our Ancestors.
D. Zoo Animals Enjoy Taking Each Other by Surprise.
【答案】12. A 13. B 14. C 15. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文,主要讲述了类人猿(如猩猩、黑猩猩、倭黑猩猩和大猩猩)之间的开玩笑行为,研究表明这种行为与人类的幽默有着共同的起源,并且这种行为可能也存在于其他高度社会化的动物中。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第一段“Aisha took a toy and waved it at him. When he didn t respond, Aisha waved the toy in her dad s face and brushed it across the top of his head, making it harder for him to ignore her. Finally, he gave in and watched her. Aisha’s behavior suggests that great apes (类人猿) engage in playfu teasing (戏弄) just like humans (Aisha拿起一个玩具,向父亲挥舞。当父亲没有反应时,Aisha把玩具在他面前挥舞,并在他的头顶上刷过,使他更难忽视她。最终,父亲屈服并看着她。Aisha的行为表明,类人猿和人类一样会开玩笑)”可知,Aisha的行为是开玩笑,是为了有趣地玩耍。故选A。
【13题详解】
主旨大意题。根据文章第三段“Despite living in different social structures and environments, all four species of great apes tease one another in similar ways.(尽管生活在不同的社会结构和环境中,这四种类人猿都以相似的互相开玩笑的方式)”可知,本段主要讲述了研究的结果,即不同种类的类人猿以相似的开玩笑方式。故选B。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第四段“While doing playful teasing, the teaser has to predict the target’s response and adjust their behavior based on how the target is likely to respond.(在进行戏弄时,戏弄者必须预测目标的反应,并根据目标的可能反应调整自己的行为)”可知,开玩笑者会预测目标的反应。故选C。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文,尤其是第一段“Aisha’s behavior suggests that great apes(类人猿)engage in playful teasing(戏弄)just like humans and that the roots of human humor can go back 1.3million years to the common ancestors of apes and humans.(阿伊莎的行为表明,类人猿和人类一样会开玩笑,而人类幽默的根源可以追溯到130万年前的类人猿和人类的共同祖先)”可知,文章主要介绍了类人猿(如猩猩、黑猩猩、倭黑猩猩和大猩猩)之间的开玩笑行为,研究表明这种行为与人类的幽默有着共同的起源,并且这种行为可能也存在于其他高度社会化的动物中。所以短文的标题为“开玩笑存在于跨物种之中”。故选B。

47. 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。
Squeaky wasn’t expected to do much around the house, but she was responsible for looking after her sister Louise, who was intellectually disabled. People in their Harlem neighborhood often made fun of Louise, but Squeaky didn’t hesitate to stand up for her. As Squeaky was an incredibly fast runner, she could just run away if things got too heated. In fact, Squeak y won many races she competed in, sometimes losing to her classmate and friend, Gretchen. These days, Squeaky and Gretchen were talking about who of them would win in the coming May Day race.
Squeaky often ran around the neighborhood, training for races and performing breathing exercises, and Louise usually went together. Louise often caused trouble in public, drawing the anger of neighbors to whom Squeaky must apologize. But Squeaky didn’t mind as long as Louise didn’t interfere (干扰) with her training.
Presently Squeaky was practicing running in the neighborhood with Louise when she spotted Gretchen running towards them. When they came close, they all stopped. Gretchen looked at Louise in curiosity, which was taken as a provocation by Squeaky, who stepped forward in defense. Gretchen stepped back and smiled kindly.Relieved, Squeaky introduced Louise to Gretchen and explained why she was defensive.
Gretchen laughed, saying she was curious because she was surprised that Louise should be able to run as fast as Squeaky. “Is she also training for the May Day race?” Gretchen asked.
Squeaky’s eyes lit up. “Why haven’t I ever thought of this?” she thought. Gretchen’s words reminded her of an idea she had never thought of. “I decide to quit running and coach Louise instead. I have many awards, but Louise has nothing,” she told Gretchen. Gretchen was almost touched to tears by Squeaky’s consideration for her sister. “Can I work together with you?” Gretchen asked with enthusiasm. The two friends looked at each other in agreement.

【答案】
The coaching was no easy job. Gretchen played the role of the referee who fired the gun. Squeaky ran together with Louise. To make the race like a real one, Gretchen even asked some of her friends to cheer them on the way and some others to play the role of other runners. The training became an uplifting scene in the neighborhood. Now even the neighbors who used to get annoyed by Louise were excited to join the cheering crowd. Louise’s progress was evident and she ran even faster than Squeaky and she learned to run without Squeaky’s company.
May Day finally arrived. Louise was standing at the starting line of the 50-yard dash with other runners. The gun went off, and Louise started to run. She ran really fast like an arrow that leaves the string. With more and more people joining the cheering crowd, the race became the most attractive event of the May Day celebrations. Louise won the race as expected. She was awarded a medal and Squeaky had never seen her happier. Squeaky and Gretchen threw themselves to Louise feeling proud that they had discovered her running potential.

A New Zealand man playing his first-ever competitive Scrabble game (拼字游戏) in Spanish has won the board game’s Spanish-language world title — despite not being able to speak the Spanish language. Nigel Richards, a professional player who holds five English-language world titles, won the Spanish World Scrabble championships in Granada, Spain, in November, losing one game out of 24.
“Richards started memorizing the language’s Scrabble word list a year ago,” his friend Liz Fagerlund — a New Zealand Scrabble official — told The Associated Press.
“He can’t understand why other people can’t just do the same thing,” Liz Fagerlund said. “He can look at a block of words together, and once they go into his brain as a picture he can just recall that very easily.”
Nothing like the New Zealander’s achievement had ever happened in Spanish Scrable according to Alejandro Terenzani, a contest organizer, who said, “It was impossible to react negatively; you can only be amazed.”
Richards has done this before. In 2015, he became the French-language Scrabble world champion, despite not speaking French. He took the French title again in 2018.
Richards is recognized in international Scrabble as the greatest player of all time. In 2008 he became the first player ever to hold the world US and British titles at the same time, despite having to “forget” 40,000 English words that do not appear in the American Scrabble word list to win in the US.
Scrabble does not require players to know the definitions of words, only what combinations of letters are allowed, but native speakers do have an advantage. Richards’ mother once told a New Zealand newspaper that he was not excellent at English in school, never attended university, and took a mathematical approach to the game rather than a linguistic (语言学的) one.
4. What is a must to play a Scrabble game?
A. Memorizing a word list. B. Building picture blocks.
C. Being fluent in multiple languages. D. Winning titles in spelling competitions.
5. What did Alejandro Terenzani think of Richards’ achievement?
A. Integrated. B. Inspiring. C. Unsustainable. D. Unmatched.
6. How is the American Scrabble game different from the English one?
A. They involve different skill sets. B. They award winners in different ways.
C. They have different word coverage. D. They require different registration processes.
7. What did Richards’ mother say about him?
A. He learned five languages. B. He performed excellently at university.
C. He owed his success to a special approach. D. He took advantage of being a native Spanish speaker.
C
Ninety-year-old Laura found a new social life at 82 years old by joining a community center with a pool. She began swimming regularly and she enjoyed affordable lunches, danced to DJ music, and made friends. Research shows that people with strong social connections tend to be positive towards life and are 50% more likely to live longer than those who live alone.
Scientists from Brigham Young University analyzed 148 studies involving over 300,000 participants and found that satisfying social lives are as beneficial for longevity(长寿)as quitting smoking and may even be more crucial than exercise or losing weight. Social connections can influence health through buffering, where support from others helps us adapt emotionally to challenges, reducing stress-caused hormones that weaken the immune(有免疫力)system.
Rebeca, a professor at Harvard University, adds something to this understanding by pointing out the impact of our beliefs about aging on healthy longevity. Her studies show that old people with positive views of aging are much better able to run daily routines. They’re more likely to recover from a disabling injury. Her research also suggests that positive attitudes towards aging offer protection against cognitive(认知的)decline.
Rebeca finds people with a positive view of aging lived an average of 8 years longer than those with a negative one. She explains that beliefs are powerful because people with a positive mindset about aging tend to have a good diet and active lifestyle. They also have lower levels of stress hormones. Rebeca emphasizes that age beliefs can be shifted. In one study, adults who wrote about a healthy older person’s life once a week for four weeks showed a significant decline in negative perceptions of aging.
Despite the growing elderly population, negative views about aging have worsened, as is shown by Rebeca’s analysis of a 200-year database of over 400 million words. The language used around aging has become more negative and dismissive since the late 1800s.Rebeca argues that labeling aging as a disease ignores the strengths and growth potential in later life.
8. What does Laura’s example imply?
A The challenges of quitting smoking.
B. The role of exercise in overan health.
C. The possibility of physical disability of the elderly.
D. The power of social connections on healthy longevity.
9. What does the underlined word“buffering” in paragraph 2 mean?
A. Affecting everyday tasks.
B. Reducing the harmful effects.
C. Weakening the immune system.
D. Leading to emotional stress.
10. Which point of view will Rebeca agree with?
A. Aging should be treated as a disease.
B. Writing helps to slow down cognitive decline.
C. Positive mindset can be formed through practice.
D. People are becoming more respectful to the elderly.
11. How did Rebeca learn about the change of people’s attitude towards aging?
A. By making interviews.
B. By analyzing a database.
C. By observing a social trend.
D. By comparing research findings.
D
One sunny afternoon, three-year-old Aisha, an orangutan at the San Diego Zoo, played outside while her father sat nearby. Aisha took a toy and waved it at him. When he didn't respond, Aisha waved the toy in her dad s face and brushed it across the top of his head, making it harder for him to ignore her. Finally, he gave in and watched her. Aisha’s behavior suggests that great apes (类人猿) engage in playful teasing (戏弄) just like humans and that the roots of human humor can go back 1.3 million years to the common ancestors of apes and humans.
A study led by Federico Rosson of the University of California includes orangutans, chimpanzees, bonobos, and gorillas in zoos. They carried out a video-based study and identified social interactions that contain a mix of playful and annoying elements. They focused on characteristics such as one-sided provocation (挑衅), surprise, looking at the target’s face, and repetition of the behavior.
Despite living in different social structures and environments, all four species of great apes tease one another in similar ways. A teaser might grab another’s hand or foot to stop their activity. Sometimes apes hid under objects when teasing, reaching out a hand suddenly to pull someone’s hair. Targets tended to ignore teasers or try to gently get them away. Sometimes they responded positively with play, or teasing of their own. Other times they just got up and left.
While doing playful teasing, the teaser has to predict the target’s response and adjust their behavior based on how the target is likely to respond. Learning to predict how others will respond is a critical skill for highly social animals.
The study of playful teasing may not be limited to apes. “We suspect that other highly social animals such as parrots, dolphins, elephants, whales, and dogs, may also engage in this behavior,” said co-researcher, Isabelle Laumer. To gather more data, researchers have surveyed zookeepers and are collecting stories of animal teasing from around the world.
12. Why did Aisha wave a toy at her father?
A. To have fun playfully.
B. To copy human behavior.
C. To attract his attention to her head.
D. To show annoyance for ignoring her.
13. What is paragraph 3 mainly about?
A. The subjects of the study.
B. The findings of the study.
C. The approach of the study.
D. The structure of the study.
14. What can be learned about the apes?
A. The target feels angry at the teaser.
B. The teaser focuses on the target’s face.
C. The teaser predicts the target’s response.
D. The target adapts to the build of the teaser.
15. What is a suitable title for the text?
A. Humor Is Older than Humans.
B. Playful Teasing Is Conducted Across Species.
C. Study Discovers the Secret of Our Ancestors.
D. Zoo Animals Enjoy Taking Each Other by Surprise.

Classroom environments play a crucial role in students’ learning experiences. A setting filled with too many things can look untidy. ____16____ Therefore, teachers are supposed to be careful with what they want their classroom to look like. While controlling all factors may be challenging, teachers can manage the materials on classroom walls to reduce distractions (分散注意力的事)。

As Squeaky was an incredibly fast runner, she could just run away if things got too heated. In fact, Squeak y won many races she competed in, sometimes losing to her classmate and friend, Gretchen. These days, Squeaky and Gretchen were talking about who of them would win in the coming May Day race.
Squeaky often ran around the neighborhood, training for races and performing breathing exercises, and Louise usually went together. Louise often caused trouble in public, drawing the anger of neighbors to whom Squeaky must apologize. But Squeaky didn’t mind as long as Louise didn’t interfere (干扰) with her training.
Presently, Squeaky was practicing running in the neighborhood with Louise when she spotted Gretchen running towards them. When they came close, they all stopped. Gretchen looked at Louise in curiosity, which was taken as a provocation by Squeaky, who stepped forward in defense. Gretchen stepped back and smiled kindly.Relieved, Squeaky introduced Louise to Gretchen and explained why she was defensive.
Gretchen laughed, saying she was curious because she was surprised that Louise should be able to run as fast as Squeaky. “Is she also training for the May Day race?” Gretchen asked.
Squeaky’s eyes lit up. “Why haven’t I ever thought of this?” she thought. Gretchen’s words reminded her of an idea she had never thought of. “I decide to quit running and coach Louise instead. I have many awards, but Louise has nothing,” she told Gretchen. Gretchen was almost touched to tears by Squeaky’s consideration for her sister. “Can I work together with you?” Gretchen asked with enthusiasm. The two friends looked at each other in agreement.
