You've still got to pour the water，measure out the coffee，turn the machine on，then pour the milk and sugar in and stir the whole thing，and that takes up valuable time when you could be doing something else，like sleeping! And most of the time，you make a so-so cup of coffee because you're so tired in the morning that you can barely open your eyes.You could go down to a cafe and get that coffee made to order just the way you like it，but those costs add up pretty quickly.What if I told you there was a product out there that could make your coffee for you and automatically add the right amount of milk and sugar，and do it in a quarter of the time as a regular coffee maker? Would you be interested in that? Of course you would! It's called the Morning Miracle.And the best part is that you can control the machine with your voice，so you don't even need to get out of bed! What are you waiting for? Just send $99 to the address on your screen，plus $15 for shipping.Don't wait! Get the new Morning Miracle now! 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 Unusual Things that Famous People Did Leonardo Da Vinci and his sleep schedule Da Vinci was a painter, an engineer, a writer, a sculptor, an inventor, an architect, a pioneer in exploring human anatomy, an eager animal lover and possibly one of the most famous vegetarians who ever lived.It seems that there's nothing that this man did not do.Yet there was, it was sleeping.He wasn't a fan of it and after conducting careful research and building up his knowledge, he started following the multiphase sleep cycle.To put it in other words, Da Vinci's sleep would consist of several short naps every 24 hours.Being the Renaissance man is not so easy. Lev Tolstoy and his shoes The giant of the Russian literature, Lev Tolstoy not only wrote historically accurate books, but he himself became of historical importance while still being alive.Despite coming from the highest layers of society, Tolstoy eventually started questioning the moral of society that he lived in and started following his own path.He became a vegetarian, started following a vigorous daily routine and denounced the looks of a rich man.He started wearing peasant clothes and shoes, which, despite not being too skilled, were made by himself. Ludwig Van Beethoven and the 60 coffee beans Ludwig Van Beethoven did write the glorious “Symphony No.9”， which is now the anthem of European Union, while being already deaf, but, of course, that's just the tip of the iceberg of his input into musical history.Yet stellar results require astronomic discipline.Each morning Beethoven counted by hand 60 coffee beans from which he would make his perfect cup of coffee.Also, in order to restart his creative muscles after writing too much music, he would pour cold water on his head. [语篇解读]　本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了三位著名人物的不同寻常的癖好。 21．What do we know about the sleep style of Leonardo Da Vinci? A．He stayed up late every day. B．He followed strict sleep cycle.

Dr.Sophia Roberts，30，is a general surgery resident physician at Barnes-Jewish Hospital in St.Louis，Missouri.Her dad，Dr.Harold Roberts Jr.，66，has been practicing medicine for the last 32 years.In May，Roberts and his daughter teamed up for an aortic valve (主动脉瓣) replacement. “I told Sophia that I had this case coming and she went out and read about it.And she'd never seen it，much less assisted on it，” Harold Roberts recalled. Even though the case was new to her，Sophia Roberts jumped at the chance.She had wanted to spend a month learning and operating with her surgeon father back in 2020，but their plans fell through for all kinds of reasons.So this was the shot she'd been waiting for. When the day came，Harold Roberts was pleased to have his eldest child by his side and said it was a “really nice thing” to work together with her.The elder Roberts said his daughter helped open the patient's chest and “she did a great job”．“It was really very smooth.I wouldn't have done the case any better if I had another heart surgeon assisting me，” he said. Sophia Roberts，who served as her dad's first assistant，said it was a memorable experience but also said once the surgery got underway，she was in the zone. “It's very special that I was operating with him，but quite frankly，I could have been operating with anyone—like all of a sudden，you're just focused on that patient and making the operation go smoothly，” she said. Harold and Sophia Roberts reported their patient has done great since the surgery and was even excited the father-daughter team would be taking care of her. [语篇解读]　本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了普通外科住院医师Sophia与其父亲——一名资深的内科医生——一起完成一场心脏手术的事情。 24．What can we know from paragraph 2? A．Sophia is a freshman at a medical school. B．Harold Roberts is an experienced physician.

The most obvious way to get a runner's high is to start running，particularly long-distance running.It may take several miles for the effects to kick in，though it's difficult to quantify(量化) exactly when，where and for how long a runner's high will occur.And not every runner—or every run—will be able to produce a runner's high.This variability has led some snarky online users to conclude that the runner's high is，in fact，a myth，despite the physiological changes associated with it. Other aerobic activities，including biking，swimming and strenuous hiking，can trigger the same response without necessarily forcing you to pound the pavement. Interestingly，humans aren't the only animals that have exhibited signs of runner's high.Several experiments have observed a similar phenomenon in mice.Raichlen's lab has also tested dogs and ferrets (雪貂) by sticking them on a treadmill(跑步机) and looking for exercise-induced excitement，according to research published in the Journal of Experimental Biology.After 30 minutes of running，the dogs appeared at-ease; blood tests revealed elevated levels of endocannabinoids in their systems.“We didn't see that in the ferrets，” Raichlen said. One major benefit to achieving a runner's high is that it makes exercise more enjoyable.By extension，this makes people more likely to stick to an exercise routine，which is a key component of long-term heart health，according to the American Heart Association.There is also good evidence that，over the long term，exercise can help reduce anxiety and stress.So go ahead and lace up your shoes.You're free to chase that runner's high as far as it takes you. [语篇解读]　本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一种现象，名为“跑步者愉悦感”。这种现象出现在人们进行有氧运动之后，并且对人的身心都有益。 28．According to the text，what is the direct result when “runner's high” is reached? A．Fewer diseases. B．Being positive. C．Higher speed. D．Feeling anxious. 28 29 30 31 答案：B 推理判断题。根据第一段内容可知，跑步者愉悦感带来的直接结果就是心态乐观积极。故选B。 28 29 30 31 29．Which of the following can best replace the underlined word “trigger” in paragraph 3? A．Break down. B．Relate to. C．Set off. D．Add to. 答案：C 28 29 30 31 词义猜测题。根据第二段第一句可知，跑步尤其是长跑会引发跑步者愉悦感。再根据画线单词前的“Other aerobic activities”以及画线单词之后“the same response without necessarily forcing you to pound the pavement”可知，其他有氧运动也可以引发跑步者愉悦感。故画线单词trigger意为“诱发，引起”。故选C。 28 29 30 31 30．What is paragraph 4 mainly about? A．Runner's high appears in some animals. B．Runner's high surely brings lots of benefits. C.Another example with runner's high is found. D．Different animals have different runner's high. 答案：A 28 29 30 31 段落大意题。根据第四段第一句“Interestingly，humans aren't the only animals that have exhibited signs of runner's high.”以及之后描述的研究结果可知，本段主要讲述了有些动物也会在运动后出现跑步者愉悦感。故选A。 28 29 30 31 31．What can be inferred from the text? A．Runner's high appears whenever you feel at peace. B．Most of us are running to achieve runner's high. C．If you are running，runner's high is sure to happen. D．Running is highly recommended by the author. 答案：D 28 29 30 31 推理判断题。根据最后一段最后三句可推断，作者强烈推荐跑步。故选D。 28 29 30 31 D In most of the inspiring stories, one of the messages that is repeated over and over is not to give up.Giving up is not an option if you truly want to reach your dreams.No matter what challenges you face or how many setbacks you experience or how many times you get knocked down, you mustn't give up.You need to stand strong, raise your head up, and keep pressing forward.Well, in most cases, this is great advice but sometimes, giving up is the smart thing to do.Now before you decide to just give up on your current goals, what should you do? First of all, you have to figure out exactly why you want to achieve your dream in the first place.Is it really your dream or someone else's? Is it something that you really, truly want or something you think you want because you see a bunch of other people going for the same thing? We pursue dreams and goals to better ourselves but more importantly, we do it because we believe it will increase our level of happiness and excitement.Imagine spending years to achieve a goal, finally achieving it, and realizing you're not any happier because it wasn't what you really wanted.So in the situation where you realize the dreams you're after isn't really something you want, giving up is a good choice. Another thing to keep in mind is that for the most part, we pursue goals for the feelings that accomplishing those goals will bring us.Knowing the feelings or experience you're after can open up more options for you.If you know the feelings you're after, you could change your focus to another goal that will give you the same feelings or experience.Just don't use this as an excuse to give up on something you actually want. [语篇解读]　本文是一篇议论文。文章就坚持与放弃展开论述，认为有时候放弃不失为一种明智的选择。 32．What is the function of the first paragraph? A．To promote inspiring stories. B．To explain the harm of giving up. C．To introduce the topic of this passage. D．To call on people not to give up. 答案：C 32 33 34 35 推理判断题。通读全文可知，第一段介绍了人们的一般认识，即要想实现梦想，一定要坚持，不放弃。但本文的主要论点与此相反，认为有时候放弃不失为一种好的选择。因此，第一段旨在引出下文要论述的观点。 32 33 34 35 33．When is it better for you to give up your dreams? A．When you find other easier goals. B．When they are too difficult to achieve. C．When others are doing the same thing. D．When you realize they bring no happiness. 答案：D 32 33 34 35 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“Imagine spending years to achieve a goal...giving up is a good choice.”可知，如果目标的实现不能给你的生活带来幸福感的话，放弃目标是个比较好的选择。 32 33 34 35 34．What does the author probably advise us to do according to paragraph 4? A．Pursue what you really want. B．Keep trying until you succeed. C．Focus on goals instead of feelings. D．Change focus if it is possible. 答案：A 32 33 34 35 细节理解题。根据第四段中的“we pursue goals for the feelings that accomplishing those goals will bring us”以及“Just don't use this as an excuse to give up on something you actually want.”可知，作者建议大家要追求真正想要的东西。 32 33 34 35 35．What is the best title for this text? A．Giving Up Is Sometimes a Smart Choice B．No Matter What Difficulty, Never Give Up C．Keep On and You Will Achieve Your Goals D．Giving Up Is the Biggest Enemy of Success 答案：A 32 33 34 35 标题归纳题。通读全文可知，本文就坚持与放弃展开论述，认为有时候放弃不失为一种明智的选择。 32 33 34 35 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。 [语篇解读]　本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了三件有助于人们获得真正成功的事。 Everyone is eager to have a successful life and they're struggling for it all their life. 36 Although people's opinions differ in this, the following three things may help you achieve success. 36 37 38 39 40 A．It's about living a happy life. B．But how do we define success? C．This is quite true to all successful people. D．Is it to earn more money or achieve fame? E．It means achieving greatness in this brilliant life. F．Realizing you are already successful is also helpful. G．Only then will you start to feel truly successful and achieve more successes. 答案：B 36 37 38 39 40 根据空处前后两句可知，所有人都渴望成功，但对成功的看法不一样。由此可知，空处应承上启下，引出该如何定义成功。 36 37 38 39 40 If you want to be successful in your life, you must believe in yourself.Self-confidence makes you creative and motivated. 37 In their eyes, nothing is impossible and they will undoubtedly become successful one day.There are so many examples such as US industrialist Henry Ford and Jamaican athlete Usain Bolt. 36 37 38 39 40 36 37 38 39 40 A．It's about living a happy life. B．But how do we define success? C．This is quite true to all successful people. D．Is it to earn more money or achieve fame? E．It means achieving greatness in this brilliant life.

G．Only then will you start to feel truly successful and achieve more successes. 答案：C 根据上文语境和下文“In their eyes, nothing is impossible and they will undoubtedly become successful one day.”可推知，空处应提到对自己有信心的人的做法。C项中的all successful people与下文they相对应。 36 37 38 39 40 Apart from having confidence in yourself, you should understand your real intention.What's your intention? 38 If you focus your attention on either one of them, it's hard for you to truly feel successful.For a truly successful life, you must have a life purpose and show your passion.When you aim to serve your purpose, make a difference and show your talents, you will feel true success and satisfaction. 36 37 38 39 40 36 37 38 39 40 A．It's about living a happy life. B．But how do we define success? C．This is quite true to all successful people. D．Is it to earn more money or achieve fame? E．It means achieving greatness in this brilliant life. F．Realizing you are already successful is also helpful. G．Only then will you start to feel truly successful and achieve more successes. 答案：D 根据上文“What's your intention？”可知，空处是对该问题的回答，结合下文列出的消极影响可知，空处是消极回答。 36 37 38 39 40 39 But how do you manage to do it? You can think from time to time about some of the small goals you have already achieved, which will not only lead you to bigger and more successes but also make you notice the amazing success that is already around you. 40 36 37 38 39 40 36 37 38 39 40 A．It's about living a happy life. B．But how do we define success? C．This is quite true to all successful people. D．Is it to earn more money or achieve fame? E．It means achieving greatness in this brilliant life. F．Realizing you are already successful is also helpful. G．Only then will you start to feel truly successful and achieve more successes. 答案：F 空处为本段主旨句。根据下文“You can think from time to time about some of the small goals...that is already around you.”可知，本段介绍了意识到自己已有的成功对自己有益的观点。 36 37 38 39 40 36 37 38 39 40 39 But how do you manage to do it? You can think from time to time about some of the small goals you have already achieved, which will not only lead you to bigger and more successes but also make you notice the amazing success that is already around you. 40 36 37 38 39 40 A．It's about living a happy life.

Only yards from where Jim stood, a girl was being attacked.Jim didn't know what to do.Should he get involved in it? He was worried about his own safety.He was wondering whether he should just run to the nearest phone box and call the police or go to fight with the attacker (攻击者) to save the unknown girl. As he suffered from inward struggles, the girl's cries were growing weaker.Jim knew he had to act fast.Yet he knew he couldn't just walk away from this.He realized that he could not turn his back on the fate (命运) of this unknown girl, even if it meant risking his own life. Jim was not a brave man, nor was he athletic (健壮的).Even he himself didn't quite know where he found the moral courage and physical strength.However, once he was determined to help the girl, he became strangely transformed (转变).He ran behind the bushes and pulled the attacker off the girl, who panicked very much.Seeing Jim prevent him, the attacker became crazy and began to fight with him.Jim became fearless and then fell to the ground, where they wrestled (摔跤) for a few minutes until the attacker jumped up and escaped.Jim felt very tired and he couldn't catch the attacker. 注意：续写词数应为150个左右。 Watching the attacker run into the darkness，Jim thought of the girl. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ “Dad, is that you？”asked the girl in wonder and amazement as she walked from behind the bushes.______________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ [参考范文] Watching the attacker run into the darkness, Jim thought of the girl. Breathing hard, Jim got up from the ground and walked towards her.The girl was sitting behind the bushes, sobbing.Although in the darkness Jim could hardly see the girl clearly, he could certainly sense her trembling with fear.Not wanting to frighten the girl further, Jim at first spoke to her from a distance.Jim said soothingly that the attacker had run away and she was safe.There was a long pause and then he heard some words from the girl. “Dad, is that you？”asked the girl in wonder and amazement as she walked from behind the bushes. To Jim's shock, there stood Jim's youngest daughter, who began crying.Hugging his daughter, Jim also cried.After the police arrived, they told them something about the attacker in detail.He felt it was a right decision to rush to fight with the attacker.Now in his daughter's eyes, Jim is a brave man and a hero without fearing any danger. $$
