Two new adult learners at Xi’ an Jiaotong-Liverpool University(XJTLU) in Suzhou say despite the challenges of returning to school after years away, they believe it’ll be worth it. Both plan to strengthen their professional skills with master’s degrees from XJTLU’s International Business School Suzhou. While Hamed Azimidizaj has become an experienced engineer and manager over nearly 15years in the car industry, he wants to broaden his knowledge. Originally from Iran, he’s lived in China for five years. “Now I see that experience alone is not enough. You need to bring knowledge to the industry in order to make improvements, and I’m seeking to learn more so that I can make a change,” he says. Qin Qian, Marketing Manager at the Taicang branch of a German environmental testing equipment company, is responsible for driving new business development strategies. She hopes to build a system to expand the company’s business with new markets in China. “In today’s competitive business world, just keeping up with rapid technological advances is not enough,” she says. “How can my team make the company more competitive? How can we successfully break into new markets? I’ve been thinking about these questions for two years, and eventually I came to believe the best way is to further my studies in this field.” For students considering further study, Azimidizaj says Suzhou provides a comfortable environment, with its mix of modern facilities and ancient culture. Qian advises others thinking about going back to school to make careful decisions and then pursue goals wholeheartedly. “Sometimes, choice is more important than effort. Making good decisions matters because mistakes are expensive,” says Qian. “But once you’ve decided, you should go after it with everything you’ve got. Life is too short to wait.” 4.

Which word best describes Azimidizaj? A. Farsighted. B. Hesitant. C. Generous. D. Conservative. 6. What is the purpose of Qian’s further study? A. To improve her knowledge for international business. B. To escape the competitive pressure in her current job. C. To explore opportunities in the environmental industry. D. To develop a systematic approach for market expansion. 7. What can we learn from Qian’s words? A. Think twice before you act. B. Opportunity knocks but once. C. The early bird catches the worm. D. Actions speak louder than words. 【答案】4. C 5. A 6. D 7. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是新闻报道。文章通过两位职场人士重返校园攻读硕士的经历，强调了在快速变化的时代中，持续更新知识的重要性。 【4题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“Both plan to strengthen their professional skills with master’s degrees from XJTLU’s International Business School Suzhou.(两人都计划通过在西交利物浦大学苏州国际商学院攻读硕士学位来提升自己的专业技能。)”可知，Azimidizaj和Qian计划在西交利物浦大学提升他们的职业能力。故选C项。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“Now I see that experience alone is not enough. You need to bring knowledge to the industry in order to make improvements, and I’m seeking to learn more so that I can make a change, he says.(现在我明白，仅仅靠经验是不够的。你需要将知识带入这个行业，以便做出改进，我正在寻求学习更多，这样我才能做出改变，他说。)可知，Azimidizaj能认识到仅靠经验不够，还需要知识来改进行业，说明他有远见。故选A项。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“Qin Qian, Marketing Manager at the Taicang branch of a German environmental testing equipment company, is responsible for driving new business development strategies. She hopes to build a system to expand the company’s business with new markets in China.(秦倩是一家德国环境检测设备公司太仓分公司的市场经理，负责推动新的业务发展战略。她希望建立一个系统，以开拓中国的新市场来扩大公司的业务。)”可知，Qian继续深造的目的是开发一种系统的方法来进行市场扩张。故选D项。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段““Sometimes, choice is more important than effort. Making good decisions matters because mistakes are expensive,”says Qian.“But once you’ve decided, you should go after it with everything you’ve got. Life is too short to wait.”(有时候，选择比努力更重要。做出正确的决定很重要，因为犯错的代价很高，秦倩说。“但一旦你做了决定，你就应该全力以赴去追求它。生命太短暂，经不起等待。”)”可知，Qian认为在做决定前要慎重考虑，因为犯错代价高，也就是要三思而后行。故选A项。 C Indoor gardening offers all the same benefits as a garden in the ground outside. Namely, fresh food and a low environmental impact. But not everyone has the natural space for a garden, which is where indoor planting comes in for the win. While there are many systems and techniques you can apply inside the home, PICO stands out as a flexible option that you can place anywhere and still achieve growing success. Most indoor plants need to be located near a window for light. Often this means taking up limited tabletop or bookcase space. PICO is different because, while setting it on a tabletop is an option, it can also be fixed to many other surfaces, such as a refrigerator or desk, wall, windows, mirrors, etc. There are also three color options to match nearly any decoration. The unit comes fully put together. All you have to do is add a bit of soil and a few of your favorite seeds. Watering is stable and consistent with a water tank and easy-fill opening. A transparent (透明的) window in the front allows you to easily see when more water is needed, typically about once each week. From there, the system automatically draws water from the tank through the soil, using an on-demand system that refills water as the soil dries out. With location and watering figured out, the last major component for successful indoor growth is proper lighting. PICO is equipped with a multi-spectrum (多光谱) growing light that conveniently extends from the planter design. As your plant grows, the light extends up to one foot higher for consistent light. While PICO is not intended to provide large quantities of food, its automatic functions and flexible placement make it an option for growing readily available vegetables and visually pleasing mini flowers. PICO is currently trending on a Kickstarter crowdfunding campaign that will close on May 17th. To support this innovative indoor gardening solution, interested customers can back the project now. Shipments are expected to begin immediately after the campaign concludes. 8. What distinguishes PICO from other indoor gardening systems? A. It allows for soilless growing. B. It offers large-quantity production. C. It permits various positioning options. D. It guarantees a low environmental impact. 9. What information is provided by PICO’s front window? A. Seed condition. B. Water-filling time. C. Plant-growth rate. D. Soil nutrient amount. 10. What is special about PICO’s lighting system? A. It can change colors. B. It depends on the sun. C. It can be adjusted in height. D. It is removable from the planter. 11. What is the main purpose of this text? A. To show how to use PICO. B. To present PICO’s special features. C. To attract buyers for a new product. D. To explain indoor gardening’s popularity. 【答案】8. C 9. B 10. C 11. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了室内种植设备PICO，它安装位置多样、组装及浇水便捷，光照系统可随植物生长高度进行调节，是爱好园艺的空间有限者的不二选择。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“PICO stands out as a flexible option that you can place anywhere(PICO作为一种灵活的选择脱颖而出，你可以将它放置在任何地方) ”以及第二段中的“PICO is different because, while setting it on a tabletop is an option, it can also be fixed to many other surfaces, such as a refrigerator or desk, wall, windows, mirrors, etc.( PICO的不同之处在于，虽然可以将其安装在桌面上，但它也可以固定在许多其他表面，如冰箱或桌子、墙壁、窗户、镜子等。)”可知，PICO可以安装在室内多种位置，这使它在室内园艺系统中脱颖而出。故选C。 9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“A transparent (透明的) window in the front allows you to easily see when more water is needed, typically about once each week.( 前面有一个透明的窗口，你可以很容易地看到什么时候需要更多的水，通常是每周一次。)”可知，透明窗口能让人们轻易看到什么时候需要更多水，也就是告知加水时间。故选B。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段中的“ PICO is equipped with a multi-spectrum growing light that conveniently extends from the planter design. As your plant grows, the light extends up to one foot higher for consistent light(PICO 配备了一个多光谱生长灯，它可以从种植器上延伸出来。随着你的植物生长，灯光可向上延伸一英尺，以提供持续稳定的光照)”可知，PICO配备的多光谱生长灯可随着植物生长升高，即它的高度可以调节。故选C。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。文章主体部分详细介绍了 PICO的三个特殊功能：第二段介绍了其位置灵活性(“it can also be fixed to many other surfaces”)，第三段详述了自动浇水系统(“the system automatically draws water from the tank”)，第四段描述了可调节照明设计(“the light extends up to one foot higher”)。这些内容占据了文章约80%的篇幅，表明作者的主要目的是展示PICO的特殊功能特点。故选B。 D If walking is part of your exercise routine, you might want to try stopping to smell the roses once in a while along your route, a new study suggests. Researchers in Italy found short periods of walking might actually give your metabolism (新陈代谢) more of a workout than walking the same distance without a break. Francesco Luciano, the lead researcher, and his team explain that using long, continuous walking to calculate energy consumption “significantly diminishes the metabolic cost of short-duration walks.” This is meaningful not only for people who are trying to burn off more of their energy, but also for people who might be trying to conserve it. This may also be important information for programs designed to help prevent people losing weight while still getting the benefits of exercise, like eating disorder treatment programs. It’s important to note these findings are based on a pretty small sample size of just 10healthy participants — 5 male, 5 female — all around 27 years of age, so the results may not be representative of a broader population. For the study, each participant walked on a stair climber for 10, 30, 60, 90, and 240seconds, and in a separate experiment, walked for those same periods on a treadmill (跑步机).The research team measured how much oxygen participants used, on average, when they were at rest before the experiments, and then again after the walking. Oxygen consumption is often used to measure how much energy is being used during exercise. “Our findings show that the time-averaged oxygen consumption and metabolic cost are greater for shorter than longer walks,” the researchers report. During 30-second walks, the participants consumed 20-60 percent more oxygen than the standard estimates for walking exercise, which are based on long, continuous walking. 12. What did the new study find about walking? A. Long walks would bring greater metabolic cost. B. Stops during walks may boost the calorie burn. C. Fast walking might be helpful for losing weight. D. Continuous walking could treat eating disorders. 13. What does the underlined word “diminishes” in paragraph 2 mean? A. Clarifies. B. Uncovers. C. Investigates. D. Underestimates. 14. What is paragraph 3 mainly about? A. The research objectives and methods. B. The sample selection and characteristics. C. The potential drawbacks and weaknesses. D. The practical implications and applications. 15. How did the researchers determine participants’ energy consumption? A. By counting their steps. B. By measuring their speed. C By comparing their time length. D. By monitoring their oxygen intake. 【答案】12. B 13. D 14. D 15. D 【解析】 【导语】文章是一篇说明文，主要讲述了意大利研究人员的一项新研究发现，短时间的步行间歇可能比相同距离的不间断步行更能锻炼新陈代谢。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“Researchers in Italy found short periods of walking might actually give your metabolism(新陈代谢) more of a workout than walking the same distance without a break.(意大利的研究人员发现，短时间的步行间歇实际上可能比不休息走相同距离更能锻炼新陈代谢)” 可知，步行过程中的停顿可能会增加卡路里的消耗。故选B。 【13题详解】 词义猜测题。根据第二段 “Francesco Luciano, the lead researcher, and his team explain that using long, continuous walking to calculate energy consumption “significantly diminishes the metabolic cost of short-duration walks.”(首席研究员弗朗西斯科・卢西亚诺和他的团队解释说，用长时间连续步行来计算能量消耗 “显著diminishes了短时间步行的代谢成本”)” 可知，此处是说用长时间连续步行计算能量消耗的方法不能准确反映短时间步行的代谢成本，是低估了。选项 D“Underestimates.（低估）” 符合文意，故选D。 【14题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第三段“This is meaningful not only for people who are trying to burn off more of their energy, but also for people who might be trying to conserve it. This may also be important information for programs designed to help prevent people losing weight while still getting the benefits of exercise, like eating disorder treatment programs.(这不仅对那些试图消耗更多能量的人有意义，对那些试图保存能量的人也有意义。这对于那些旨在帮助人们在仍能获得运动益处的同时防止体重减轻的项目来说，也可能是重要的信息，比如饮食失调治疗项目)” 可知，第三段主要讲述了这项研究的实际意义和应用。故选D。 【15题详解】 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段 “Oxygen consumption is often used to measure how much energy is being used during exercise.(耗氧量常被用来衡量运动中消耗了多少能量)” 可知，研究人员是通过监测参与者的氧气摄入量来确定他们的能量消耗的。故选D。 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。 The Art of Giving Compliments (称赞) Compliments create a positive impact, uplifting both the giver and receiver. Let’s start lifting each other up more often with encouraging words. One important aspect of giving compliments is to acknowledge the small things in life. You don’t need to wait around for some big achievement to offer a compliment to somebody. If it’s something really obvious, they’ve probably been complimented on it plenty of times before. ___16___ What may seem unimportant to you might mean a lot to somebody else. Like somebody’s jacket? Let them know! Impressed with someone’s handwriting? Tell them. Additionally, when giving compliments, it’s crucial to be specific. If you want to encourage positive change in someone, give them specific compliments. The more specific your compliments are, the more likely they are to continue the positive behavior. This helps them identify what they’re doing right. For this reason, children who grew up with parents who gave them a lot of general praise, “You’re so smart!” or, “You’re so special!” tend to feel lost in adulthood. ___17___ Another key element in the art of complimenting is sincerity. Compliments that are clearly insincere won’t win you any points. ___18___ If a person knows you’re lying, that will destroy their trust in you and de-value your future compliments. So, always keep in mind that honesty is the best policy when it comes to giving compliments. ___19___ Non-present compliments are those you yourself offer about someone else when they’ re not around. Repeating them always works wonders. For example, I was recently talking to my brother about working on the blog. I mentioned how I really admire Kate’s determination to finish an article on a tight deadline, even if it means staying up all night to do it. When I got home, I told her about that conversation. ___20___ A. Kate thanked us sincerely. B. Kate said it really meant a lot. C. In fact, they’ll have the opposite effect. D. So offer your admiration for the small stuff. E. At-present compliments are equally important. F. They haven’t learned to recognize their talents. G. Repeating non-present compliments is also valuable. 【答案】16. D 17. F 18. C 19. G 20. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了称赞的艺术，包括关注小事、具体称赞、真诚称赞以及重复非当面称赞的重要性。 【16题详解】 由上文“One important aspect of giving compliments is to acknowledge the small things in life. You don’t need to wait around for some big achievement to offer a compliment to somebody. If it’s something really obvious, they’ve probably been complimented on it plenty of times before. (称赞的一个重要方面是认可生活中的小事。你不需要等到别人取得什么大成就才给予称赞。如果某件事真的很明显，他们可能已经被称赞过很多次了。)”可知，上文提到要认可生活中的小事并给予称赞，本空应承接上文，进一步强调要对小事表示赞赏。D选项“So offer your admiration for the small stuff. (所以要对小事表示你的赞赏。)”能承接上文，符合题意。故选D。 【17题详解】 由上文“Additionally, when giving compliments, it’s crucial to be specific. If you want to encourage positive change in someone, give them specific compliments. The more specific your compliments are, the more likely they are to continue the positive behavior. This helps them identify what they’re doing right. For this reason, children who grew up with parents who gave them a lot of general praise, “You’re so smart!” or, “You’re so special!” tend to feel lost in adulthood. (此外，在给予称赞时，具体性至关重要。如果你想鼓励某人做出积极的改变，就给他们具体的称赞。你的称赞越具体，他们就越有可能继续积极的行为。这有助于他们明确自己做得对的地方。出于这个原因，那些成长在父母经常给予一般性称赞，如“你真聪明！”或“你真特别！”的家庭中的孩子，在成年后往往会感到迷茫。)”可知，上文提到一般性称赞会让孩子在成年后感到迷茫，本空应承接上文，说明这些孩子迷茫的原因。F选项“They haven’t learned to recognize their talents. (他们没有学会认识自己的才能。)”能承接上文，解释了孩子迷茫的原因，符合题意。故选F。 【18题详解】 由上文“Another key element in the art of complimenting is sincerity. Compliments that are clearly insincere won’t win you any points. (称赞艺术的另一个关键要素是真诚。明显不真诚的称赞不会为你赢得任何好感。)”可知，上文提到不真诚的称赞不会赢得好感，本空应承接上文，说明不真诚称赞的负面影响。C选项“In fact, they’ll have the opposite effect. (事实上，它们会产生相反的效果。)”能承接上文，说明了不真诚称赞的负面影响，符合题意。故选C。 【19题详解】 由下文“Non-present compliments are those you yourself offer about someone else when they’ re not around. Repeating them always works wonders. (背后的称赞是指当某人不在场时你对别人说起关于他的称赞。重复这些称赞总是能产生奇妙的效果。)”可知，本空应强调重复背后称赞的价值。G选项“Repeating non-present compliments is also valuable. (重复背后的称赞也是有价值的。)”可作为本段的主题句，引出下文对背后称赞及其效果的介绍，符合语境。故选G。 【20题详解】 由上文“For example, I was recently talking to my brother about working on the blog. I mentioned how I really admire Kate’s determination to finish an article on a tight deadline, even if it means staying up all night to do it. When I got home, I told her about that conversation. (例如，我最近和我哥哥谈论了关于博客的工作。我提到我非常钦佩凯特在紧迫的期限内完成一篇文章的决心，即使这意味着她要熬夜完成。当我回到家时，我告诉了她那次谈话。)”可知，上文提到作者告诉凯特关于作者和她哥哥的谈话内容，本空应承接上文，说明凯特对此的反应。B选项“Kate said it really meant a lot. (凯特说那真的意义重大。)”能承接上文，符合题意。故选B。 第三部分 语言运用(共两节，满分30分) 第一节 (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。 The River Don in Mike’s hometown is a well-known local dumping ground (垃圾倾倒地).Whenever Mike passed the river, the rubbish ____21____ him, so he decided to take ____22____ into his own hands.

His neighbor, Mr. Foy, had hired him to move them all into the storage room. He had been working for an hour, yet the pile seemed hardly any smaller. Just then, his friend Jon showed up. Jon saw the situation and quickly realized the job would take quite a while. He suggested Maxwell use a wheelbarrow (手推车) to transport the oranges, which would speed things up. Maxwell’s eyes lit up as he heard the idea. They found a wheelbarrow behind the storage room. Right away they started loading the oranges into the wheelbarrow, pushed it into the storage room, and piled the oranges inside. With their joint efforts, the seemingly tough task was completed in a short time. Maxwell looked at Jon, whose face was red and sweaty from all the work. Maxwell felt really thankful. Jon had given him a great idea and then helped with the job. He thought he was so lucky to have a friend like Jon. Maxwell decided that if Jon ever needed help, he would be there right away. He was glad Jon came to help him today. Then, Maxwell rushed to tell Mr. Foy that he had finished. “Maxwell, I can’t believe you’ve managed to finish all this work on your own in such a short time!” Mr. Foy said in surprise. Appreciating the boy’s nice work, he gave Maxwell a $20 bill happily. Maxwell looked at the generous payment Mr. Foy had handed him. He felt a bit uneasy about taking all the money. He pictured Jon’s red sweaty face and his brilliant wheelbarrow idea. He knew that Jon had played an important role in getting the job done quickly. Although Jon hadn’t mentioned anything about payment, Maxwell felt he couldn’t keep it a secret. 注意： 1.续写词数应为150左右; 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 After some hesitation, Maxwell decided to tell Mr. Foy the truth. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Taking the money, Maxwell went directly to Jon’s house. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】After some hesitation, Maxwell decided to tell Mr. Foy the truth. Gathering his courage, Maxwell approached Mr. Foy with a sense of determination. “Mr. Foy,” Maxwell began, his voice filled with a sense of nervousness. “My friend Jon actually helped me, and it was his idea to use the wheelbarrow, which allowed us to finish the work so fast.” Mr. Foy nodded in approval and said, “It seems Jon deserves part of the payment too.” Mr. Foy further suggested that Maxwell split the $20 payment in half and give $10 to Jon as a sign of gratitude for his labor. Maxwell agreed wholeheartedly, recognizing the fairness and wisdom of Mr. Foy’s suggestion. Taking the money, Maxwell went directly to Jon’s house. Upon arriving, Maxwell took a deep breath and walked up to Jon. Maxwell handed Jon the $10, explaining it was his fair share. Jon initially refused, saying he hadn’t helped for money. Maxwell insisted, emphasizing Jon’s idea and hard work deserved recognition. Jon finally accepted, appreciating Maxwell’s honesty. “You’ re a good friend,” Jon said, smiling. Maxwell felt proud, knowing he’d done the right thing. Their friendship deepened, strengthened by trust and fairness. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了Maxwell受雇搬运橘子，面对艰巨任务时，朋友Jon不仅提出用手推车的好主意，还帮忙一起完成工作。Maxwell收到雇主支付的报酬后，内心因独享报酬而不安，最终决定向雇主坦白实情的故事。 【详解】1. 段落续写： ①由第一段首句“After some hesitation, Maxwell decided to tell Mr. Foy the truth.

Two new adult learners at Xi’ an Jiaotong-Liverpool University(XJTLU) in Suzhou say despite the challenges of returning to school after years away, they believe it’ll be worth it. Both plan to strengthen their professional skills with master’s degrees from XJTLU’s International Business School Suzhou. While Hamed Azimidizaj has become an experienced engineer and manager over nearly 15years in the car industry, he wants to broaden his knowledge. Originally from Iran, he’s lived in China for five years. “Now I see that experience alone is not enough. You need to bring knowledge to the industry in order to make improvements, and I’m seeking to learn more so that I can make a change,” he says. Qin Qian, Marketing Manager at the Taicang branch of a German environmental testing equipment company, is responsible for driving new business development strategies. She hopes to build a system to expand the company’s business with new markets in China. “In today’s competitive business world, just keeping up with rapid technological advances is not enough,” she says. “How can my team make the company more competitive? How can we successfully break into new markets? I’ve been thinking about these questions for two years, and eventually I came to believe the best way is to further my studies in this field.” For students considering further study, Azimidizaj says Suzhou provides a comfortable environment, with its mix of modern facilities and ancient culture. Qian advises others thinking about going back to school to make careful decisions and then pursue goals wholeheartedly. “Sometimes, choice is more important than effort. Making good decisions matters because mistakes are expensive,” says Qian. “But once you’ve decided, you should go after it with everything you’ve got. Life is too short to wait.” 4.

C Indoor gardening offers all the same benefits as a garden in the ground outside. Namely, fresh food and a low environmental impact. But not everyone has the natural space for a garden, which is where indoor planting comes in for the win. While there are many systems and techniques you can apply inside the home, PICO stands out as a flexible option that you can place anywhere and still achieve growing success. Most indoor plants need to be located near a window for light. Often this means taking up limited tabletop or bookcase space. PICO is different because, while setting it on a tabletop is an option, it can also be fixed to many other surfaces, such as a refrigerator or desk, wall, windows, mirrors, etc. There are also three color options to match nearly any decoration. The unit comes fully put together. All you have to do is add a bit of soil and a few of your favorite seeds. Watering is stable and consistent with a water tank and easy-fill opening. A transparent (透明) window in the front allows you to easily see when more water is needed, typically about once each week. From there, the system automatically draws water from the tank through the soil, using an on-demand system that refills water as the soil dries out. With location and watering figured out, the last major component for successful indoor growth is proper lighting. PICO is equipped with a multi-spectrum (多光谱) growing light that conveniently extends from the planter design. As your plant grows, the light extends up to one foot higher for consistent light. While PICO is not intended to provide large quantities of food, its automatic functions and flexible placement make it an option for growing readily available vegetables and visually pleasing mini flowers. PICO is currently trending on a Kickstarter crowdfunding campaign that will close on May 17th. To support this innovative indoor gardening solution, interested customers can back the project now. Shipments are expected to begin immediately after the campaign concludes. 8. What distinguishes PICO from other indoor gardening systems? A. It allows for soilless growing. B. It offers large-quantity production. C. It permits various positioning options. D. It guarantees a low environmental impact. 9. What information is provided by PICO’s front window? A. Seed condition. B. Water-filling time. C. Plant-growth rate. D. Soil nutrient amount. 10. What is special about PICO’s lighting system? A. It can change colors. B. It depends on the sun. C. It can be adjusted in height. D. It is removable from the planter. 11. What is the main purpose of this text? A. To show how to use PICO. B. To present PICO’s special features. C. To attract buyers for a new product. D. To explain indoor gardening’s popularity. D If walking is part of your exercise routine, you might want to try stopping to smell the roses once in a while along your route, a new study suggests. Researchers in Italy found short periods of walking might actually give your metabolism (新陈代谢) more of a workout than walking the same distance without a break. Francesco Luciano, the lead researcher, and his team explain that using long, continuous walking to calculate energy consumption “significantly diminishes the metabolic cost of short-duration walks.” This is meaningful not only for people who are trying to burn off more of their energy, but also for people who might be trying to conserve it. This may also be important information for programs designed to help prevent people losing weight while still getting the benefits of exercise, like eating disorder treatment programs. It’s important to note these findings are based on a pretty small sample size of just 10healthy participants — 5 male, 5 female — all around 27 years of age, so the results may not be representative of a broader population. For the study, each participant walked on a stair climber for 10, 30, 60, 90, and 240seconds, and in a separate experiment, walked for those same periods on a treadmill (跑步机).The research team measured how much oxygen participants used, on average, when they were at rest before the experiments, and then again after the walking. Oxygen consumption is often used to measure how much energy is being used during exercise. “Our findings show that the time-averaged oxygen consumption and metabolic cost are greater for shorter than longer walks,” the researchers report. During 30-second walks, the participants consumed 20-60 percent more oxygen than the standard estimates for walking exercise, which are based on long, continuous walking. 12. What did the new study find about walking? A. Long walks would bring greater metabolic cost. B. Stops during walks may boost the calorie burn. C Fast walking might be helpful for losing weight. D. Continuous walking could treat eating disorders. 13. What does the underlined word “diminishes” in paragraph 2 mean? A. Clarifies. B. Uncovers. C. Investigates. D. Underestimates. 14. What is paragraph 3 mainly about? A. The research objectives and methods. B. The sample selection and characteristics. C. The potential drawbacks and weaknesses. D. The practical implications and applications. 15. How did the researchers determine participants’ energy consumption? A. By counting their steps. B. By measuring their speed. C. By comparing their time length. D. By monitoring their oxygen intake. 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。 The Art of Giving Compliments (称赞) Compliments create a positive impact, uplifting both the giver and receiver. Let’s start lifting each other up more often with encouraging words. One important aspect of giving compliments is to acknowledge the small things in life. You don’t need to wait around for some big achievement to offer a compliment to somebody. If it’s something really obvious, they’ve probably been complimented on it plenty of times before. ___16___ What may seem unimportant to you might mean a lot to somebody else. Like somebody’s jacket? Let them know! Impressed with someone’s handwriting? Tell them. Additionally, when giving compliments, it’s crucial to be specific. If you want to encourage positive change in someone, give them specific compliments. The more specific your compliments are, the more likely they are to continue the positive behavior. This helps them identify what they’re doing right. For this reason, children who grew up with parents who gave them a lot of general praise, “You’re so smart!” or, “You’re so special!” tend to feel lost in adulthood. ___17___ Another key element in the art of complimenting is sincerity. Compliments that are clearly insincere won’t win you any points. ___18___ If a person knows you’re lying, that will destroy their trust in you and de-value your future compliments. So, always keep in mind that honesty is the best policy when it comes to giving compliments. ___19___ Non-present compliments are those you yourself offer about someone else when they’ re not around. Repeating them always works wonders. For example, I was recently talking to my brother about working on the blog. I mentioned how I really admire Kate’s determination to finish an article on a tight deadline, even if it means staying up all night to do it. When I got home, I told her about that conversation. ___20___ A. Kate thanked us sincerely. B. Kate said it really meant a lot. C. In fact, they’ll have the opposite effect. D. So offer your admiration for the small stuff. E. At-present compliments are equally important. F. They haven’t learned to recognize their talents. G. Repeating non-present compliments is also valuable. 第三部分 语言运用(共两节，满分30分) 第一节 (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。 The River Don in Mike’s hometown is a well-known local dumping ground (垃圾倾倒地).Whenever Mike passed the river, the rubbish ____21____ him, so he decided to take ____22____ into his own hands.

His neighbor, Mr. Foy, had hired him to move them all into the storage room. He had been working for an hour, yet the pile seemed hardly any smaller. Just then, his friend Jon showed up. Jon saw the situation and quickly realized the job would take quite a while. He suggested Maxwell use a wheelbarrow (手推车) to transport the oranges, which would speed things up. Maxwell’s eyes lit up as he heard the idea. They found a wheelbarrow behind the storage room. Right away, they started loading the oranges into the wheelbarrow, pushed it into the storage room, and piled the oranges inside. With their joint efforts, the seemingly tough task was completed in a short time. Maxwell looked at Jon, whose face was red and sweaty from all the work. Maxwell felt really thankful. Jon had given him a great idea and then helped with the job. He thought he was so lucky to have a friend like Jon. Maxwell decided that if Jon ever needed help, he would be there right away. He was glad Jon came to help him today. Then, Maxwell rushed to tell Mr. Foy that he had finished. “Maxwell, I can’t believe you’ve managed to finish all this work on your own in such a short time!” Mr. Foy said in surprise. Appreciating the boy’s nice work, he gave Maxwell a $20 bill happily. Maxwell looked at the generous payment Mr. Foy had handed him. He felt a bit uneasy about taking all the money. He pictured Jon’s red sweaty face and his brilliant wheelbarrow idea. He knew that Jon had played an important role in getting the job done quickly. Although Jon hadn’t mentioned anything about payment, Maxwell felt he couldn’t keep it a secret. 注意： 1.续写词数应为150左右; 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 After some hesitation, Maxwell decided to tell Mr. Foy the truth. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Taking the money, Maxwell went directly to Jon’s house. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
