Here are some of the comments they posted: Planet Girl 7.17 pm Our world is damaged by war, hunger and poverty. Billions of people struggle just to survive from day to day. Meanwhile the US space agency has US $16 billion to play with every year. We must deal with the world’s urgent problems. Space exploration is a luxury we cannot afford. Dragon 7.18 pm That $16 billion spent on space is nothing compared to the $370 billion spent on the military. JJ 7.20 pm Exploring space is investing in the future. Everyone knows we’re running out of resources. There’s massive over-population too. The solar system has heaps of resources we can use for mining, and maybe we can explore other planets. If we don’t do it now, it might be too late. Planet Girl 7.22 pm We have to settle problems of over-population and resource consuming here on Earth, instead of chasing science fiction dreams. Otherwise we will just export our unsustainable lifestyle to another planet. We might consume the whole universe!! JJ 7.23 pm Space explorers rock! They know what they are in for, and they still do it anyway. That’s what I call courage! We humans have always struggled to expand our horizons. We want to know what else is out there. Who knows, maybe we’ll discover the solution to all our problems out there! Switched-on 7.25 pm Space exploration has had a huge effect on our lives. Want to talk to someone halfway around the world? Sure. Get the weather forecast? Coming right up. Check exactly where you are? Absolutely. It’s all possible, thanks to satellite technology, global positioning systems, and the rest. If there was no space exploration, we’d be sitting around in the dark, not talking online! Penny 7.50 pm Satellites are launched by private companies — for profit. Planet Earth doesn’t always benefit. Exploring remote planets certainly does not contribute to life on Earth. 36. The underlined sentence (Par.2) means that space exploration is_________. A. expensive but necessary B. expensive and unnecessary C. very important but too expensive D. not very important but affordable 37. What is Dragon’s opinion? A. The cost of space exploration is too much. B. Planet Girl’s idea is acceptable. C. Space exploration is worthwhile. D. The military is more useful than space exploration. 38. What is the most likely reason that JJ does not discuss the cost of space exploration? A. He agrees that space exploration costs too much. B. He does not know how much space exploration costs. C. He thinks space exploration is worthwhile, whatever the cost. D. He knows Planet Girl is wrong about the cost of space exploration. 39. Which aspect of space exploration does Switched-on mainly write about? A. Its cost to the community. B. Its effect on environment. C. Its contribution to technology in everyday life. D. Its capacity to serve people in their everyday life. 40. What is one point that Planet Girl and JJ are most likely to agree about? A. Living on other planets is a real possibility. B. Spending money on war is unnecessary. C. Space exploration encourages creativity. D. Earth’s resources are fast disappearing. The library of Pharaoh Ramesses II is said to have borne the inscription (碑文) “the house of healing for the soul”. Dylan Thomas, an English writer, reportedly liked to relax by reading Agatha Christie’s detective novels. As for the novelist Yiyun Li, it was War and Peace that helped her get through the toughest times; when she launched a virtual reading group of Leo Tolstoy’s masterpiece in lockdown, 3,000 people signed up. In recent years, a growing body of research has backed up the idea that books not only entertain, but also help us recover and grow. They offer companionship to the lonely, insight to the anxious, and release to those who feel trapped. This feature has motivated Ann Cleeves to turn her attention to the old long-lasting bibliotherapy. She then co-sponsored such a program in northeast England, working with public health teams. Bibliotherapy is an approach using books and other forms of literature to improve a patient’s mental health. A review of several studies found such programs have a long-term effect on people’s well-being. But Cleeves has a broader idea in mind. Writing for The Guardian, she described how reading and writing fiction helped her understand her own response and allowed her to escape into a different world. The reading coaches will match their patients with appropriate poetry and novels as well as non-fiction based on patients’ condition, and will introduce them to librarians and other readers. After all, what’s uplifting to one reader will seem twee (花哨) to another and what one finds unpleasant may be reassuring to the next. For Cleeves, it is happy to see people seek self-discovery in the world of books. Some may respond to children’s classic The Secret Garden; others will recognize themselves in Toni Morrison’s novels. An ancient idea has found fresh resonance (共鸣). 41. What did Dylan Thomas and Yiyun Li have in common? A. They sought inspiration in foreign countries. B. They turned to books for spiritual comfort. C. They had a great influence on the world literature. D. They once launched a reading group during tough times. 42. What inspired Ann Cleeves to co-sponsor the program? A. The healing power of books. B. The support from public health teams. C. The popularity of the program among people. D. The lack of such a program in northeast England. 43. What can be inferred about bibliotherapy? A. It can greatly improve public health. B. It can bring a boom in book markets. C. It can be used as a cure for depression. D. It can bring in diverse forms of literature. 44. How does a reading coach play his or her role? A. By suiting specific books to patients. B. By helping librarians sort out all kinds of books. C. By assisting readers in writing their own fiction. D. By recording readers’ response to different books. 45. Which of the following can serve as the best title of this text? A. Virtual reading groups: the rising industry in lockdown B. An inscription: the house of healing for the soul C. Novel reading: two sides to mental troubles D. Bibliotherapy: an old idea finds new life Most of Florida is a flat peninsula (半岛) with water on three sides and houses built as close to the shoreline as possible. For one thing we are more frequently the target of hurricanes than any other state; for another, our geography makes us more easily to be hurt by rising seas. A news story about climate change in Florida popped up. Historically, scientists believed mangroves (红树林) didn’t live farther north than Cedar Key, in the middle of Florida’s Big Bend. But that’s not the case anymore. Samantha Chapman, a biology professor who’s been studying how Florida’s mangroves have been migrating (迁移), found them up near the St Mary’s River, which forms the border between Florida and Georgia. It seems that they soon be marching through Georgia and becoming a thriving new component of coastal habitats. But a coastal biologist named Blair Witherington took issue on the matter. The mangroves weren’t spreading into a new territory, he pointed out. They were entering areas that had been classified as saltmarsh (盐沼), where the landscape was dominated by cordgrass. Saltmarsh and mangrove create very different habitats that attract a very different set of animals. “When one community replaces the other, this diversity is lost,” Witherington remarked. Changing the animals’ habitat has the potential to influence the whole food chain, making a widespread difference. What was driving this? “Mangroves can survive a short freeze, but not a prolonged, hard freeze. By combing through the weather records kept by the state’s orange juice industry, biologists have been able to document that Florida is having fewer prolonged hard freezes than it used to. Then the mangroves have adapted by expanding their range.” Samantha explained. “They’ve adapted in another way, too. Not only are the mangroves spreading into areas that once were unfriendly to them, but they have also changed their life cycle to speed things up. Normally it takes them about 15 years of growth before they start making seeds. Now, as they get into these marshes, they’re producing seeds when they’ re only a couple of years old,” Samantha said. The problem with having too many mangroves by the sea is that climate change may overwhelm them. A study by the US Geological Survey said sea level rise could wipe out mangroves all along the Florida coast. So, here’s the question we humans have to consider: Nature is finding ways to adapt to how we’ve changed the climate. What are we doing to adapt to it? Or at least slow it down? 46. What can we learn about the state of Florida? A. It could be affected by high tides easily. B. Its geography fuels shipbuilding industry. C. Its houses are built in a high-lying but flat area. D. It is often hit by tornadoes and suffers huge losses. 47 What is the news story about Florida’s mangroves? A. They migrate to warmer regions. B. They are marching into a new habitat. C. They form the border between Florida and Georgia. D. They are introduced into Florida to prevent flooding. 48. Which of the following would Blair Witherington agree with? A. Saltmarsh is fragile and requires urgent protection. B. Florida includes a rich diversity of natural habitats. C. The benefits of the mangroves outweigh their troubles. D. Everything in the ecosystem is connected complicatedly. 49. What are the 4th and 5th paragraphs mainly about? A. What mangroves had to face in their habitats. B. Whether mangroves had influence on other plants. C. How mangroves adapted to the changing environment. D. Why mangroves had a different life cycle in marshes. 50. What can we infer from the last paragraph? A. Human beings are supposed to worship nature. B. It is urgent to grow more mangroves along coastlines. C. Measures against mangroves’ migration are far from enough. D. What we should do to stop the climate change is still up in the air. How can we possibly cope with the large amount of information about virus spread, canceled plans and uncertainty about the future? Some people are buried in the fear, anxiety and sadness, checking news sites and social media constantly. Others try to be prevented from knowing it all and ignore the outside world. There's a third option, though. Rather than fully getting involved in the negative or ignoring it, we can do our best to experience joy alongside everything else that is sad in the world. In fact, research that and others have conducted suggests that allowing the two different emotions to coexist may actually benefit us in the long run. Dr. Jeff Larsen and his colleagues invented an expression known as the “coactivation model of mixed emotions”, and the basic idea is that we may be able to deal with, and learn from negative emotions like sadness if we experience them concurrently with positive emotions like joy at the same time. Here, positive emotions provide a psychological buffer (缓冲),making it easier for people to deal with the things they don't want to face. The comedian Mitch Hedberg proposed ananalogythat captures this essence quite well, noting that it would be cool if you could eat a carrot with an onion ring and they would travel down to your stomach. Then they would get there, and the carrot would say, “It's cool, he's with me.” Applied to our emotional lives, we could do a better job in digesting,processing gaining insight into the negative events in our lives if we could do so alongside the positive. Several years ago, my partner Jon Adler and I set out to test this exact idea. Specifically, we looked at sample of adult volunteers who signed up for weekly mental , health therapy sessions. Between each week, they reported the feelings they were having and also took a few questionnaires that were meant to assess their overall health. This design allowed us to examine how different emotional experiences would impact mental health in a longitudinal fashion, over the course of 12 weeks. It's worth noting first that everyone seemed to improve a bit as the weeks marched on:therapy helps and so does time. More to the point, though, mixed emotions at one time point were positively associated with improvements in psychological well-being at the next time point. The more of a mixture of, say, happiness and sadness someone experienced today, the better feeling they'd experience next week. However, when we looked at mixed emotions that were experienced in a given week, they weren't associated with improved mental health in that same week. The true benefit from mixed emotions may not happen immediately, but rather, likely happen sometime in the future. 51. What does the author recommend people do with a flood of bad news? A. Take no notice of it at all. B. Make better plans to fight against it. C. Take in all of the negative emotions. D. Get involved in the negative and enjoy happiness as well. 52. Which of the following may Jeff Larsen agree with? A. Mixed emotions remain to be proved. B. The negative emotion is easy to deal with. C. The positive emotion makes it easier for people to succeed. D. Mixed emotions allow people to handle the negative better. 53 What does the underlined word “analogy” in paragraph 4 mean? A. Exhibition. B. Promotion. C. Similarity. D. Requirement. 54. Why were lots of questions asked during the research? A. To measure the volunteers health on the whole. B. To record what the volunteers are experiencing. C. To treat the mental diseases of the adults. D. To over turn the theory co activation model of mixed emotions. 55. What is the main idea of the passage? A. Ignore bad news completely to make you cutoff from outside and feel happy. B. Make your negative emotions less severe by focusing on positive ones. C. Negative emotions will eventually benefit people in the long run. D. Positive and negative emotions can not coexist at the same time. IV.阅读表达(共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分) 阅读表达 “Cleverness is a gift while kindness is a choice. Gifts are easy---they're given after all. Choices can be hard.” I got the idea to start Amazon 16 years ago. I came across the fact that the Internet usage was growing at 2300 percent per year. I'd never seen or heard of anything that grew that fast, and the idea of building an online bookstore with millions of titles was very exciting to me. I had just turned 30, and I’d been married for a year. I told my wife that I wanted to quit my job and go to do this crazy thing that probably wouldn't work since most start-ups don’t and I wasn't sure what to expect. She told me I should go for it. As a young boy, I had been a garage inventor. I had always wanted to be an inventor, and she wanted me to follow my passion. I was working at a financial firm in New York City with a bunch of very smart people and a brilliant boss that I much admired. I went to my boss and told him that I wanted to start a company selling books on the Internet. He took me on a long walk in Central Park，listened carefully to me and finally said,“That sounds like a really good idea，but it would be an even better idea for someone who didn't already have a good job.”That logic made some sense to me，and he convinced me to think about it for 48 hours before making a final decision. Seen in that light, it really was a difficult choice，but ultimately, I decided I had to give it a shot. I didn't think I would regret trying and failing. And I suspected that I would always be haunted by a decision to not try at all. After much consideration, I took the less secure path to follow my passion, and I'm proud of that choice. For all of us, in the end, we are our choices. 56. What inspired the author to start Amazon 16 years ago? (No more than 15 words) 57. How did the author’s wife respond to his crazy idea of building an online bookstore? (No more than 10 words) 58. What was the attitude of the author’s boss towards his starting a company online?

Here are some of the comments they posted: Planet Girl 7.17 pm Our world is damaged by war, hunger and poverty. Billions of people struggle just to survive from day to day. Meanwhile the US space agency has US $16 billion to play with every year. We must deal with the world’s urgent problems. Space exploration is a luxury we cannot afford. Dragon 7.18 pm That $16 billion spent on space is nothing compared to the $370 billion spent on the military. JJ 7.20 pm Exploring space is investing in the future. Everyone knows we’re running out of resources. There’s massive over-population too. The solar system has heaps of resources we can use for mining, and maybe we can explore other planets. If we don’t do it now, it might be too late. Planet Girl 7.22 pm We have to settle problems of over-population and resource consuming here on Earth, instead of chasing science fiction dreams. Otherwise we will just export our unsustainable lifestyle to another planet. We might consume the whole universe!! JJ 7.23 pm Space explorers rock! They know what they are in for and they still do it anyway. That’s what I call courage! We humans have always struggled to expand our horizons. We want to know what else is out there. Who knows, maybe we’ll discover the solution to all our problems out there! Switched-on 7.25 pm Space exploration has had a huge effect on our lives. Want to talk to someone halfway around the world? Sure. Get the weather forecast? Coming right up. Check exactly where you are? Absolutely. It’s all possible, thanks to satellite technology, global positioning systems, and the rest. If there was no space exploration, we’d be sitting around in the dark, not talking online! Penny 7.50 pm Satellites are launched by private companies — for profit. Planet Earth doesn’t always benefit. Exploring remote planets certainly does not contribute to life on Earth. 36. The underlined sentence (Par.2) means that space exploration is_________. A. expensive but necessary B. expensive and unnecessary C. very important but too expensive D. not very important but affordable 37. What is Dragon’s opinion? A. The cost of space exploration is too much. B. Planet Girl’s idea is acceptable. C. Space exploration is worthwhile. D. The military is more useful than space exploration. 38. What is the most likely reason that JJ does not discuss the cost of space exploration? A. He agrees that space exploration costs too much. B. He does not know how much space exploration costs. C. He thinks space exploration is worthwhile, whatever the cost. D. He knows Planet Girl is wrong about the cost of space exploration. 39. Which aspect of space exploration does Switched-on mainly write about? A. Its cost to the community. B. Its effect on environment. C. Its contribution to technology in everyday life. D. Its capacity to serve people in their everyday life. 40. What is one point that Planet Girl and JJ are most likely to agree about? A. Living on other planets is a real possibility. B.

Space exploration is a luxury we cannot afford.可知，与此同时，美国航天局每年有160亿美元可供使用，我们必须处理世界上紧迫的问题，太空探索是我们负担不起的奢侈品。由此推知，划线句子的意思是“空间探索是昂贵和不必要的。”故选B。 【37题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段That $16 billion spent on space is nothing compared to the $370 billion spent on the military.可知，这160亿美元的太空开支与3700亿美元的军事开支相比简直是小巫见大巫。由此可知，Dragon认为太空探索是值得的。故选C。 【38题详解】 推理判断题。根据第六段They know what they are in for, and they still do it anyway. That’s what I call courage! We humans have always struggled to expand our horizons. We want to know what else is out there. Who knows, maybe we’ll discover the solution to all our problems out there!(他们知道自己在做什么，但无论如何他们仍然在做。这就是我所说的勇气!我们人类一直在努力扩展我们的视野。我们想知道外面还有什么。谁知道呢，也许我们会找到解决所有问题的方法!)可知，JJ不讨论太空探索成本最有可能的原因是“他认为不管付出什么代价，太空探索都是值得的。”故选C。 【39题详解】 推理判断题。根据第七段中Space exploration has had a huge effect on our lives. Want to talk to someone halfway around the world? Sure. Get the weather forecast? Coming right up. Check exactly where you are? Absolutely.(太空探索对我们的生活产生了巨大的影响。想和远在地球另一端的人说话吗？确定。得到天气预报？来了。检查你在哪里？绝对的)可知，Switched-on主要写的是太空探索在日常生活中为人们服务的能力。故选D。 【40题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中Our world is damaged by war, hunger and poverty. Billions of people struggle just to survive from day to day.(我们的世界被战争、饥饿和贫困破坏了。数十亿人每天都在为生存而挣扎)和第四段中Exploring space is investing in the future. Everyone knows we’re running out of resources.(探索太空是对未来的投资。大家都知道我们的资源快用完了)可知，Planet Girl和JJ最可能达成一致的一点是“地球上的资源正在迅速消失。”故选D。 The library of Pharaoh Ramesses II is said to have borne the inscription (碑文) “the house of healing for the soul”. Dylan Thomas, an English writer, reportedly liked to relax by reading Agatha Christie’s detective novels. As for the novelist Yiyun Li, it was War and Peace that helped her get through the toughest times; when she launched a virtual reading group of Leo Tolstoy’s masterpiece in lockdown, 3,000 people signed up. In recent years, a growing body of research has backed up the idea that books not only entertain, but also help us recover and grow. They offer companionship to the lonely, insight to the anxious, and release to those who feel trapped. This feature has motivated Ann Cleeves to turn her attention to the old long-lasting bibliotherapy. She then co-sponsored such a program in northeast England, working with public health teams. Bibliotherapy is an approach using books and other forms of literature to improve a patient’s mental health. A review of several studies found such programs have a long-term effect on people’s well-being. But Cleeves has a broader idea in mind. Writing for The Guardian, she described how reading and writing fiction helped her understand her own response and allowed her to escape into a different world. The reading coaches will match their patients with appropriate poetry and novels as well as non-fiction based on patients’ condition, and will introduce them to librarians and other readers. After all, what’s uplifting to one reader will seem twee (花哨的) to another and what one finds unpleasant may be reassuring to the next. For Cleeves, it is happy to see people seek self-discovery in the world of books. Some may respond to children’s classic The Secret Garden; others will recognize themselves in Toni Morrison’s novels. An ancient idea has found fresh resonance (共鸣). 41. What did Dylan Thomas and Yiyun Li have in common? A. They sought inspiration in foreign countries. B. They turned to books for spiritual comfort. C. They had a great influence on the world literature. D. They once launched a reading group during tough times. 42. What inspired Ann Cleeves to co-sponsor the program? A. The healing power of books. B. The support from public health teams. C. The popularity of the program among people. D. The lack of such a program in northeast England. 43. What can be inferred about bibliotherapy? A. It can greatly improve public health. B. It can bring a boom in book markets. C. It can be used as a cure for depression. D. It can bring in diverse forms of literature. 44. How does a reading coach play his or her role? A. By suiting specific books to patients. B. By helping librarians sort out all kinds of books. C. By assisting readers in writing their own fiction. D. By recording readers’ response to different books. 45. Which of the following can serve as the best title of this text? A. Virtual reading groups: the rising industry in lockdown B. An inscription: the house of healing for the soul C. Novel reading: two sides to mental troubles D. Bibliotherapy: an old idea finds new life 【答案】41. B 42. A 43. C 44. A 45. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。主要讲述了书籍不仅具有娱乐功能，还可以帮助人们恢复和成长。Ann Cleeves资助了一个阅读疗法项目，为这种古老的疗法赋予了新的生命。 【41题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“Dylan Thomas, an English writer, reportedly liked to relax by reading Agatha Christie’s detective novels. As for the novelist Yiyun Li, it was War and Peace that helped her get through the toughest times;(据报道，英国作家迪伦·托马斯喜欢通过阅读阿加莎·克里斯蒂的侦探小说来放松。至于小说家李翊云，《战争与和平》帮助她度过了最艰难的时期)”可知，迪伦·托马斯和李翊云都会转向书籍寻求精神慰藉。故选B项。 【42题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“In recent years, a growing body of research has backed up the idea that books not only entertain, but also help us recover and grow. They offer companionship to the lonely, insight to the anxious, and release to those who feel trapped.(近年来，越来越多的研究支持了这种观点，即书籍不仅能娱乐我们，还能帮助我们恢复和成长。它们为孤独的人提供陪伴，为焦虑的人提供洞察力，为那些感到被困的人提供解脱)”以及第三段“This feature has motivated Ann Cleeves to turn her attention to the old long-lasting bibliotherapy. She then co-sponsored such a program in northeast England, working with public health teams. (这一特点促使Ann Cleeves将注意力转向古老的长期阅读疗法。然后，她与公共卫生团队合作，在英格兰东北部共同赞助了这样一个项目)”可知，是书籍的治愈能力鼓舞了Ann Cleeves共同赞助长期阅读疗法项目。故选A项。 【43题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“Bibliotherapy is an approach using books and other forms of literature to improve a patient’s mental health.(阅读疗法是一种利用书籍和其他形式的文献来改善患者心理健康的方法)”可知，阅读疗法可以用来改善患者的心理健康，由此可推测阅读疗法可以用来治疗抑郁症。故选C项。 【44题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“The reading coaches will match their patients with appropriate poetry and novels as well as non-fiction based on patients’ condition, and will introduce them to librarians and other readers.(阅读教练将根据患者的情况为患者匹配合适的诗歌、小说和纪实文学，并将它们介绍给图书馆员和其他读者)”可知，阅读教练通过为患者匹配合适的书籍来发挥作用。故选A项。 45题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第三段“This feature has motivated Ann Cleeves to turn her attention to the old long-lasting bibliotherapy.(这一特点促使Ann Cleeves将注意力转向古老的长期阅读疗法)”以及最后一段“An ancient idea has found fresh resonance.(一个古老的想法得到了新的共鸣)”可知，本文主要介绍了古老的阅读疗法得到了新的共鸣，所以“阅读疗法：一个旧的想法找到新的生命”可以作为文章标题。故选D项。 Most of Florida is a flat peninsula (半岛) with water on three sides and houses built as close to the shoreline as possible. For one thing we are more frequently the target of hurricanes than any other state; for another, our geography makes us more easily to be hurt by rising seas. A news story about climate change in Florida popped up. Historically, scientists believed mangroves (红树林) didn’t live farther north than Cedar Key, in the middle of Florida’s Big Bend. But that’s not the case anymore. Samantha Chapman, a biology professor who’s been studying how Florida’s mangroves have been migrating (迁移), found them up near the St Mary’s River, which forms the border between Florida and Georgia. It seems that they soon be marching through Georgia and becoming a thriving new component of coastal habitats. But a coastal biologist named Blair Witherington took issue on the matter. The mangroves weren’t spreading into a new territory, he pointed out. They were entering areas that had been classified as saltmarsh (盐沼), where the landscape was dominated by cordgrass. Saltmarsh and mangrove create very different habitats that attract a very different set of animals. “When one community replaces the other, this diversity is lost,” Witherington remarked. Changing the animals’ habitat has the potential to influence the whole food chain, making a widespread difference. What was driving this? “Mangroves can survive a short freeze, but not a prolonged, hard freeze. By combing through the weather records kept by the state’s orange juice industry, biologists have been able to document that Florida is having fewer prolonged hard freezes than it used to. Then the mangroves have adapted by expanding their range.” Samantha explained. “They’ve adapted in another way, too. Not only are the mangroves spreading into areas that once were unfriendly to them, but they have also changed their life cycle to speed things up. Normally it takes them about 15 years of growth before they start making seeds. Now, as they get into these marshes, they’re producing seeds when they’ re only a couple of years old,” Samantha said. The problem with having too many mangroves by the sea is that climate change may overwhelm them. A study by the US Geological Survey said sea level rise could wipe out mangroves all along the Florida coast. So, here’s the question we humans have to consider: Nature is finding ways to adapt to how we’ve changed the climate. What are we doing to adapt to it? Or at least slow it down? 46. What can we learn about the state of Florida? A. It could be affected by high tides easily. B. Its geography fuels shipbuilding industry. C. Its houses are built in a high-lying but flat area. D. It is often hit by tornadoes and suffers huge losses. 47. What is the news story about Florida’s mangroves? A. They migrate to warmer regions. B. They are marching into a new habitat. C. They form the border between Florida and Georgia. D. They are introduced into Florida to prevent flooding. 48. Which of the following would Blair Witherington agree with? A. Saltmarsh is fragile and requires urgent protection. B. Florida includes a rich diversity of natural habitats. C. The benefits of the mangroves outweigh their troubles. D. Everything in the ecosystem is connected complicatedly. 49. What are the 4th and 5th paragraphs mainly about? A. What mangroves had to face in their habitats. B. Whether mangroves had influence on other plants. C. How mangroves adapted to the changing environment. D. Why mangroves had a different life cycle in marshes. 50. What can we infer from the last paragraph? A. Human beings are supposed to worship nature. B. It is urgent to grow more mangroves along coastlines. C. Measures against mangroves’ migration are far from enough. D. What we should do to stop the climate change is still up in the air. 【答案】46. A 47. B 48. D 49. C 50. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了在佛罗里达州发生的自然现象。为了适应气候变化，红树林不仅扩散到了曾经对它们不友好的地区，而且还改变了它们的生命周期，以加快发展。这一自然现象有可能会对整个生态系统受到影响，而迁移到海边的太多红树林的将要面对由于气候变化，海平面上升导致的“淹没”。作者不禁思考，自然都在对气候变化做出应对，人类又做了些什么？人类理应敬重自然。 【46题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第一段内容“Most of Florida is a flat peninsula with water on three sides and houses built as close to the shoreline as possible. For one thing we are more frequently the target of hurricanes than any other state; for another, our geography makes us more easily to be hurt by rising seas.(佛罗里达州的大部分地区是一个平坦的半岛，三面有水，房屋尽可能靠近海岸线建造。一方面，我们比其他任何国家更经常成为飓风的目标；另一方面，我们的地理位置使我们更容易受到海平面上升的伤害。)”可知，佛罗里达州三面有水，房屋靠近海岸线，容易遭到飓风的袭击，也容易受到海平面上升的伤害。因此可推知，涨潮是会对其产生影响的。故选A项。 【47题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段的“Historically, scientists believed mangroves didn’t live farther north than Cedar Key, in the middle of Florida’s Big Bend. But that’s not the case anymore. Samantha Chapman, a biology professor who’s been studying how Florida’s mangroves have been migrating, found them up near the St Mary’s River, which forms the border between Florida and Georgia. It seems that they soon be marching through Georgia and becoming a thriving new component of coastal habitats.(历史上，科学家们认为红树林并不存在于比佛罗里达大本德中部的锡达基更北的地方。但现在情况已经不同了。生物学教授Samantha Chapman一直在研究佛罗里达州的红树林是如何迁移的，她在圣玛丽河附近发现了它们，这条河是佛罗里达州和佐治亚州的分界线看来它们很快就会穿过乔治亚州，成为沿海栖息地的一个欣欣向荣的新组成部分。)”可知，红树林迁徙到了佛罗里达州和乔治亚州边界，到达了比佛罗里达大本德中部的锡达基更北的地方，且有可能很快穿过乔治亚州，这与历史上的记载不同，由此可知，红树林正向新的栖息地迁移。故选B项。 【48题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第三段的“‘When one community replaces the other, this diversity is lost,’ Witherington remarked. Changing the animals’ habitat has the potential to influence the whole food chain, making a widespread difference.(“当一个群落取代另一个群落时，这种多样性就消失了，”Witherington说。改变动物的栖息地可能会影响整个食物链，产生广泛的影响。)”可知，在Witherington看来，植物群落的更替会导致（原栖息地）多样性的消失，而动植物栖息地的改变可能会影响整个生态食物链，影响广泛，这都表明生态系统紧密而又复杂的关联在一起。因此可推知，选项D“Everything in the ecosystem is connected complicatedly.(生态系统中的一切都是复杂相连的。)”的论点应该是他认同的。故选D项。 【49题详解】 主旨大意题。通过阅读文章第四段和第五段内容可知，特别是第四段的“What was driving this?(是什么正在驱使这些（发生）)”和第五段第二句“They’ve adapted in another way, too.Not only are the mangroves spreading into areas that once were unfriendly to them, but they have also changed their life cycle to speed things up.(他们也以另一种方式适应了环境。红树林不仅扩散到了曾经对它们不友好的地区，而且还改变了它们的生命周期，以加快发展。)”可知，两段主要讲述了红树林如何适应不断变化环境的两种方式。故选C项。 【50题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章末尾段内容“So, here’s the question we humans have to consider: Nature is finding ways to adapt to how we’ve changed the climate. What are we doing to adapt to it? Or at least slow it down?(所以，这是我们人类必须考虑的问题：大自然正在寻找方法来适应我们改变气候的方式。为了适应它，我们做了什么? 或者至少让它慢下来? )”可知，在作者看来，大自然都在寻找方法适应人类改变气候的方式，人类却没做什么去应对气候变化。由此可推知，我们应该做些什么来阻止气候变化仍然悬而未决。故选D项。 How can we possibly cope with the large amount of information about virus spread, canceled plans and uncertainty about the future? Some people are buried in the fear, anxiety and sadness, checking news sites and social media constantly. Others try to be prevented from knowing it all and ignore the outside world. There's a third option, though. Rather than fully getting involved in the negative or ignoring it, we can do our best to experience joy alongside everything else that is sad in the world. In fact, research that and others have conducted suggests that allowing the two different emotions to coexist may actually benefit us in the long run. Dr. Jeff Larsen and his colleagues invented an expression known as the “coactivation model of mixed emotions”, and the basic idea is that we may be able to deal with, and learn from negative emotions like sadness if we experience them concurrently with positive emotions like joy at the same time. Here, positive emotions provide a psychological buffer (缓冲),making it easier for people to deal with the things they don't want to face. The comedian Mitch Hedberg proposed ananalogythat captures this essence quite well, noting that it would be cool if you could eat a carrot with an onion ring and they would travel down to your stomach. Then they would get there, and the carrot would say, “It's cool, he's with me.” Applied to our emotional lives, we could do a better job in digesting,processing gaining insight into the negative events in our lives if we could do so alongside the positive. Several years ago, my partner Jon Adler and I set out to test this exact idea. Specifically, we looked at sample of adult volunteers who signed up for weekly mental , health therapy sessions. Between each week, they reported the feelings they were having and also took a few questionnaires that were meant to assess their overall health. This design allowed us to examine how different emotional experiences would impact mental health in a longitudinal fashion, over the course of 12 weeks. It's worth noting first that everyone seemed to improve a bit as the weeks marched on:therapy helps and so does time. More to the point, though, mixed emotions at one time point were positively associated with improvements in psychological well-being at the next time point. The more of a mixture of, say, happiness and sadness someone experienced today, the better feeling they'd experience next week. However, when we looked at mixed emotions that were experienced in a given week, they weren't associated with improved mental health in that same week. The true benefit from mixed emotions may not happen immediately, but rather, likely happen sometime in the future. 51. What does the author recommend people do with a flood of bad news? A. Take no notice of it at all. B. Make better plans to fight against it. C. Take in all of the negative emotions. D. Get involved in the negative and enjoy happiness as well. 52. Which of the following may Jeff Larsen agree with? A. Mixed emotions remain to be proved. B. The negative emotion is easy to deal with. C. The positive emotion makes it easier for people to succeed. D. Mixed emotions allow people to handle the negative better. 53. What does the underlined word “analogy” in paragraph 4 mean? A. Exhibition. B. Promotion. C. Similarity. D. Requirement. 54. Why were lots of questions asked during the research? A. To measure the volunteers health on the whole. B. To record what the volunteers are experiencing. C. To treat the mental diseases of the adults. D. To over turn the theory co activation model of mixed emotions. 55. What is the main idea of the passage? A. Ignore bad news completely to make you cutoff from outside and feel happy. B. Make your negative emotions less severe by focusing on positive ones. C. Negative emotions will eventually benefit people in the long run. D. Positive and negative emotions can not coexist at the same time. 【答案】51. D 52. D 53. C 54. A 55. B 【解析】 【分析】这是一篇说明文。研究表明让快乐和悲伤这两种不同的情绪共存从长远来看可能对我们有益。把注意力集中在积极的事情上，消极情绪就不那么占上风了。 【51题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段“Rather than fully getting involved in the negative or ignoring it, we can do our best to experience joy alongside everything else that is sad in the world.”（与其完全沉浸在消极的事物中或者忽略它，我们可以尽我们最大的努力去体验快乐和世界上所有的悲伤。）可知，作者建议人们沉浸在消极情绪的同时，也能享受快乐。故选D项。 【52题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第三段“and learn from negative emotions like sadness if we experience them concurrently with positive emotions like joy' at the same time.”（如果我们同时经历悲伤等消极情绪和快乐等积极情绪，就能从这些情绪中学习。）可知，Jeff Larsen可能会同意同时感受悲喜可以使得人们更好的认识悲观情绪，从而让人们更好的处理负面情绪。故选D项。 【53题详解】 词义猜测题。根据划线词所在的句子“noting that it would be cool if you could eat a carrot with an onion ring and they would travel down to your stomach. Then they would get there, and the carrot would say, “It's cool, he's with me.” Applied to our emotional lives, we could do a better job in digesting,processing gaining insight into the negative events in our lives if we could do so alongside the positive.”（他指出，如果你吃胡萝卜时也吃洋葱圈，它们会顺着你的胃蠕动，那就太酷了。然后他们到了那里，胡萝卜会说:“没关系，他和我在一起。”如果把它应用到我们的情感生活中，如果我们能在积极事件的同时做到这一点的话，我们可以更好地消化、处理、洞察生活中的消极事件。所以喜剧演员米奇·海德伯格(Mitch Hedberg)提出了一个相似的东西，很好地抓住了这一本质。由此可知，划线单词是“相似”的意思。故选C项。 【54题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第五段“Between each week, they reported the feelings they were having and also took a few questionnaires that were meant to assess their overall health.”（每个星期，他们都要报告自己的感受，也要做一些问卷调查来评估他们的整体健康状况。）可知，提出很多问题的目的是对健康做一个综合的评估。故选A项。 【55题详解】 主旨大意题。根据文章第三段“the basic idea is that we may be able to deal with, and learn from negative emotions like sadness if we experience them concurrently with positive emotions like joy' at the same time. Here, positive emotions provide a psychological buffer (缓冲),making it easier for people to deal with the things they don't want to face.”（其基本思想是，如果我们同时经历悲伤等消极情绪和快乐等积极情绪，那么我们或许能够处理这些情绪，并从中学习。在这里，积极的情绪提供了一种心理缓冲，使人们更容易处理他们不想面对的事情。）和第四段“Applied to our emotional lives, we could do a better job in digesting, processing gaining insight into the negative events in our lives if we could do so alongside the positive.”（如果把它应用到我们的情感生活中，我们可以更好地消化、处理、洞察生活中的消极事件，如果我们能在积极事件的同时做到这一点的话。）可知，积极的情绪能让你更容易去处理那些你不想处理的事情，更好的帮助我们消化、处理、洞察生活中的消极事件。因此短文主要是关于通过关注积极的情绪，可以让消极情绪不那么占上风。故选B项。 IV.阅读表达(共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分) 阅读表达 “Cleverness is a gift while kindness is a choice. Gifts are easy---they're given after all. Choices can be hard.” I got the idea to start Amazon 16 years ago. I came across the fact that the Internet usage was growing at 2300 percent per year. I'd never seen or heard of anything that grew that fast, and the idea of building an online bookstore with millions of titles was very exciting to me. I had just turned 30, and I’d been married for a year. I told my wife that I wanted to quit my job and go to do this crazy thing that probably wouldn't work since most start-ups don’t and I wasn't sure what to expect. She told me I should go for it. As a young boy, I had been a garage inventor. I had always wanted to be an inventor, and she wanted me to follow my passion. I was working at a financial firm in New York City with a bunch of very smart people and a brilliant boss that I much admired. I went to my boss and told him that I wanted to start a company selling books on the Internet. He took me on a long walk in Central Park，listened carefully to me and finally said,“That sounds like a really good idea，but it would be an even better idea for someone who didn't already have a good job.”That logic made some sense to me，and he convinced me to think about it for 48 hours before making a final decision. Seen in that light, it really was a difficult choice，but ultimately, I decided I had to give it a shot. I didn't think I would regret trying and failing. And I suspected that I would always be haunted by a decision to not try at all. After much consideration, I took the less secure path to follow my passion, and I'm proud of that choice. For all of us, in the end, we are our choices. 56. What inspired the author to start Amazon 16 years ago? (No more than 15 words) 57.
