Construction on the Long Room, the library’s 65-meter-long main hall, began in 1712 and lasted 20 years. The original structure only had books on the lower level, but when the library’s shelves were filled in the 1850s, the ceiling was raised to accommodate even more books. Today the Long Room holds 200,000 of the library’s oldest books. Stuttgart City Library Opened in 2011, the German library is a splendid light-gray cube consisting of glass blocks designed by Eun Young Yi. Inside it, you’ll find an airy central room, above which sits a multi-story stepped reading room lined with bookshelves. The library towers over the nearby buildings. Library of Parliament Taking the form of a Victorian Gothic chapter house complete with 16 flying buttresses, the 1876 Library of Parliament is one of Canada’s prized architectural treasures — it’s on the ten-dollar bill. Architects Thomas Fuller and Chilion Jones took inspiration from the British Museum Reading Room for the structure, lining the central hall with delicate wood shelves and wood carvings. Rampur Raza Library Founded in the late 18th century, the Indian library is home to a massive collection of Islamic and Asian texts and objects. The pink structure that houses the collection today was built in 1904 by Nawab Hamid Ali Khan as a mansion of Indo-European style, The Rampur Raza Library was later shifted to this grand building in 1957. 1. Of the following libraries, which is the oldest? A. Trinity College Library. B. Library of Parliament. C. Stuttgart City Library. D. Rampur Raza Library. 2.

A. They house the rarest books. B. They were unusually designed. C. They were expanded as needed. D. They overlook surrounding buildings. 【答案】1. A 2. D 3. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是应用文。文章介绍了四个设计独特的图书馆的相关信息。 【1题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“Construction on the Long Room, the library’s 65-meter-long main hall, began in 1712 and lasted 20 years.(长厅是图书馆65米长的主厅，始建于1712年，历时20年)”；第二段中“Opened in 2011, the German library is a splendid light-gray cube consisting of glass blocks designed by Eun Young Yi.( 2011年开放的德国图书馆是由李恩英设计的玻璃块组成的华丽的浅灰色立方体)”；第三段中“Taking the form of a Victorian Gothic chapter house complete with 16 flying buttresses, the 1876 Library of Parliament is one of Canada’s prized architectural treasures — it’s on the ten-dollar bill.(1876年的国会图书馆是加拿大最珍贵的建筑瑰宝之一，它被印在10美元纸币上，它的外形是维多利亚哥特式的教堂，有16个飞扶壁)”以及最后一段中“Founded in the late 18th century, the Indian library is home to a massive collection of Islamic and Asian texts and objects.(印度图书馆建于18世纪晚期，收藏了大量的伊斯兰和亚洲文献和物品)”比较可知，Trinity College Library历史最悠久，故选A项。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三部分中“Architects Thomas Fuller and Chilion Jones took inspiration from the British Museum Reading Room for the structure, lining the central hall with delicate wood shelves and wood carvings.(建筑师Thomas Fuller和Chilion Jones从大英博物馆阅览室获得了结构的灵感，在中央大厅里排列着精致的木架和木雕)”可知，加拿大的国会图书馆印在了面值10加元的钞票上，设计灵感来自大英博物馆的阅览室，设计者为Thomas Fuller和Chilion Jones。故选D。 3题详解】 推理判断题。文章主要介绍了四家图书馆独特的建筑风格。藏书、扩建及凌驾于周围建筑物之上，只是部分或个别图书馆有所涉及，故选B项。 B It is easy for us to know the difference between our friends and our enemies. But can other animals do the same? Elephants can! They can use their sense of vision and smell to tell the difference between people who pose a threat and those who do not. In Kenya, researchers find that elephants react differently to clothing worn by men of the Maasai and Kamba ethnic groups. Young Maasai men spear (刺) animals and thus pose a threat to elephants; Kamba men are mainly farmers and are not a danger to elephants. In an experiment conducted by animal scientists, elephants were first presented with clean clothing or clothing that had been worn for five days by either a Maasai or a Kamba man. When the elephants noticed the smell of clothing worn by a Maasai man, they moved away from the smell faster and took longer to relax than when they noticed the smells of either clothing worn by Kamba men or clothing that had not been worn at all. Clothing color also plays a role. In the same study, when the elephants saw red clothing not worn before, they reacted angrily, as red is typically worn by Maasai men. Rather than running away as they did with the smell, the elephants acted aggressively toward the red clothing. The researchers believe that the elephants’ emotional reactions are due to their different senses of the smells and the sights. Smelling a potential danger means that a threat is nearby and the best thing to do is run away and hide. Seeing a potential threat without its smell means that risk is low. Therefore, instead of showing fear and running away, the elephants express their anger and become aggressive. 4. What character does the author want to express about elephants A. Clever. B. Friendly. C. Dangerous. D. Naughty. 5. Which of the following is the most dangerous sign for elephants? A. The color of Kamba men’s clothes. B. The smell of Kamba men’s clothes. C. The smell of Maasai men’s clothes. D. The red clothes not worn before. 6. What can be inferred about the elephants behavior from this passage? A. Elephants are more intelligent than other animals. B. Elephants learn from their experience. C. Elephants have sharper sense of smell than sight. D. Elephants tend to attack rather than escape when in danger. 7. In-which magazine will the passage be found most probably? A. Newsweek. B. Nature. C. Fashion. D. Business Weekly. 【答案】4. A 5. C 6. B 7. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍科学家通过实验发现了大象如何来判断敌人和朋友的。 【4题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“It is easy for us to know the difference between our friends and our enemies. But can other animals do the same? Elephants can!(我们很容易知道朋友和敌人之间的区别。但其他动物也能做到吗？大象可以！)”可知，大象也可以分辨出朋友和敌人，所以它们非常聪明。故选A。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“When the elephants noticed the smell of clothing worn by a Maasai man, they moved away from the smell faster and took longer to relax than when they noticed the smells of either clothing worn by Kamba men or clothing that had not been worn at all.(当大象闻到马赛人穿的衣服的气味时，它们会比嗅到马赛人穿的衣服或根本没有穿过的衣服的气味时更快地远离这种气味，花更长的时间来放松)”可知，对于大象来说，最危险的信号是马赛人衣服上的味道。故选C。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“Young Maasai men spear (刺) animals and thus pose a threat to elephants; Kamba men arc mainly farmers and are not a danger to elephants.(年轻的马赛人用矛刺动物，从而对大象构成威胁；坎巴人主要是农民，对大象没有威胁。)”可推断，大象通过自己的经历来判断危险。故选B。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据全文可知，这篇文章通过科学家的实验介绍了大象如何来判断敌人和朋友，所以推断这篇文章最可能出现在《自然》科学杂志上。故选B。 C A few years ago, you went on a vacation with friends, creating lasting memories — walking along the beach, swimming in the sea, and enjoying breathtaking sunsets. However, the trip wasn’t all smooth sailing: long drives, food issues, and unpredictable weather. Yet, over time, you tend to remember the beautiful moments while the inconveniences fade. This is known as rosy retrospection, a cognitive bias (认知偏见) where people recall past experiences more positively than they felt during the actual event. The phenomenon can be understood as the complex interaction of cognitive mechanisms that shape our memory processes. When recalling memories, our brains tend to focus on positive details and downplay negative aspects, which helps maintain emotional well-being. Nostalgia (怀旧) also plays a significant role, as it arouses feelings of warmth and belonging, leading us to view the past more positively. Additionally, our current emotional state and self-enhancement bias can influence how we remember past events, making them seem more favorable. While some individuals who focus more on negative experiences may be at a higher risk of mood disorders such as depression, rosy retrospection can elevate our moods, increase life satisfaction, and even help us cope with difficult present circumstances by providing a sense of continuity and positive self-identity (自我认同). However, rosy retrospection occasionally creates an unrealistic view of the past, which can lead people to make decisions that are not based on reality but rather on their idealized memories. It’s one of the reasons why we might repeatedly return to unhealthy relationships. The longer the time that has passed since the event, the more likely we are to let the good memories outweigh the bad memories and perhaps even forgive unforgivable behavior. Understanding and acknowledging this cognitive bias can be crucial for making accurate and beneficial decisions. 8. How do people with rosy retrospection typically behave? A. They forget negative moments easily. B. They recall breathtaking details repeatedly. C. They remember adventurous trips more clearly. D. They view previous experiences more positively. 9. What is paragraph 2 mainly about? A. The meaning of rosy retrospection. B. The reasons for rosy retrospection. C. The role of nostalgia in shaping memories. D. The methods of maintaining emotional well-being. 10. What does the underlined word “elevate” in paragraph 3 probably mean? A. Promote. B. Expose. C. Assess. D. Ignore. 11. What is a potential negative effect of rosy retrospection? A. It gives rise to incorrect judgments. B. It leads to a constant state of depression. C. It makes people miss out on opportunities. D. It causes people to be unwilling to face reality. 【答案】8. D 9. B 10. A 11. A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文，主要介绍了“玫瑰色回忆效应”这一认知偏见现象，即人们会以更积极的态度回忆过去的经历，同时分析了其产生的原因、带来的积极影响以及可能存在的消极影响。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第一段“This is known as rosy retrospection, a cognitive bias (认知偏见) where people recall past experiences more positively than they felt during the actual event.(这被称为玫瑰色回忆效应，是一种认知偏见，在这种情况下，人们回忆过去的经历时比实际经历时更加积极)”可知，产生玫瑰色回忆效应的人通常会更积极地看待以前的经历，故选D项。 【9题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第二段“The phenomenon can be understood as the complex interaction of cognitive mechanisms that shape our memory processes.(这种现象可以被理解为塑造我们记忆过程的认知机制的复杂相互作用)”、“When recalling memories, our brains tend to focus on positive details and downplay negative aspects, which helps maintain emotional well-being. Nostalgia (怀旧) also plays a significant role, as it arouses feelings of warmth and belonging, leading us to view the past more positively.( 回忆往事时，大脑往往会聚焦于积极细节，淡化负面因素，这有助于保持情绪健康。怀旧情绪也发挥着重要作用，因为它能激发温暖感和归属感，使我们对过去的看法更加积极)”以及“Additionally, our current emotional state and self-enhancement bias can influence how we remember past events, making them seem more favorable.(此外，我们当前的情绪状态和自我增强偏见会影响我们回忆过去事件的方式，使它们看起来更加有利)”可知，该段开篇点明这种现象（玫瑰色回忆效应）可理解为塑造我们记忆过程的认知机制的复杂相互作用。接着后文分别从大脑在回忆时的倾向、怀旧的作用以及当前情绪状态和自我提升偏见等方面进行阐述，解释了玫瑰色回忆效应产生的原因。所以第二段主要讲的是玫瑰色回忆效应的原因，故选B项。 【10题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第三段“While some individuals who focus more on negative experiences may be at a higher risk of mood disorders such as depression, rosy retrospection can elevate our moods, increase life satisfaction, and even help us cope with difficult present circumstances by providing a sense of continuity and positive self-identity (自我认同)( 虽然一些更多关注负面经历的人可能患抑郁等情绪障碍的风险更高，但玫瑰色回忆效应可以elevate我们的情绪，提高生活满意度，甚至通过提供一种连续性和积极的自我认同感来帮助我们应对当前的困难处境)”可知，前半句提到那些更多关注负面经历的人患情绪障碍（如抑郁）的风险更高，while表示对比转折，可推理出后半句玫瑰色回忆效应应该是能带来积极的影响，“elevate our moods”与“increase life satisfaction(提高生活满意度)”并列，可推测“elevate”意思是“提升、促进”，与“Promote(促进)”意思相近，故选A项。 【11题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章最后一段“However, rosy retrospection occasionally creates an unrealistic view of the past, which can lead people to make decisions that are not based on reality but rather on their idealized memories.(然而，玫瑰色回忆效应偶尔会对过去产生不切实际看法，这可能会导致人们做出的决定不是基于现实，而是基于他们理想化的记忆)”可知，玫瑰色回忆效应的一个潜在负面影响是它会导致不正确的判断，故选A项。 D Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), along with Chinese Kungfu and Peking Opera, is one of China’s cultural symbols recognized worldwide. It is a gem of Chinese civilization, and it has also made great contributions to world civilization by improving people’s health and promoting social progress. There used to be a debate in China about whether TCM or Western medicine was better, and arguments can still be heard today. But actually, TCM and western medicine are two different medical theoretical systems that can not replace each other. In some aspects such as surgery, Western medicine is better than TCM, but in other areas, such as recovery after surgery and treatment of chronic (慢性的) diseases, TCM is more effective. This is why some Chinese hospitals provide both TCM and Western medicine treatments. A combination of both has been accepted by many Chinese people as the most effective treatment. Today promoting and innovating TCM has become a consensus (共识) in Chinese society. The Chinese government has formulated policies to support the development and innovation of TCM, with a view to establishing a Chinese healthcare development model paying equal attention to both. The supportive policies of the Chinese Government will focus on three aspects. The first is the strengthening of TCM services in medical institutions. The second is to apply Internet technology to TCM management, including setting up a database containing TCM electronic medical records and prescriptions (处方). The third is to give better play to the advantages of TCM, especially acupuncture (针灸) and naprapathy (推拿). The function of TCM in disease prevention and recovery will also be enhanced. As long as TCM keeps its core strengths and respects the rules of development and innovation, it will surely be able to maintain its vitality and bring more benefits to people in China and the world. 12. What advantage does Western medicine have over TCM? A. It is a symbol of national civilization. B. It is more successful in recovery after surgery. C. It is more effective in surgery. D. It is more effective in treating chronic diseases. 13. According to paragraph 4, which of the following aspects is NOT included in the Chinese government supports for TCM? A. It calls on the public to support TCM. B. It combines Internet Technology with TCM. C. It makes better use of the advantages of TCM . D. It increases TCM services in hospitals and medical centers. 14. What can be inferred about the author’s opinion on TCM? A. Supportive. B. Critical. C. Unclear. D. Skeptical. 15. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. TCM Beats Western Medicine. B. Chinese Government Promotes TCM. C. TCM is One of China's Cultural Symbols. D. TCM Breaks New Ground. 【答案】12. C 13. A 14. A 15. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。中医是中国文化象征之一，与西医各有优势，中国政府支持其发展创新，前景可期 。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“In some aspects such as surgery, Western medicine is better than TCM, but in other areas, such as recovery after surgery and treatment of chronic (慢性的) diseases, TCM is more effective.(在某些方面，如外科手术，西医优于中医，但在其他方面，如术后康复和慢性病的治疗，中医更有效。)”可知，西医相对于中医的优势在于在外科手术方面更有效。故选C。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“The supportive policies of the Chinese Government will focus on three aspects. The first is the strengthening of TCM services in medical institutions. The second is to apply Internet technology to TCM management, including setting up a database containing TCM electronic medical records and prescriptions (处方). The third is to give better play to the advantages of TCM, especially acupuncture (针灸) and naprapathy (推拿). The function of TCM in disease prevention and recovery will also be enhanced.(中国政府的支持政策将集中在三个方面。第一是加强医疗机构的中医服务。第二是将互联网技术应用于中医管理，包括建立一个包含中医电子病历和处方的数据库。第三是更好地发挥中医的优势，特别是针灸和推拿。中医在疾病预防和康复方面的作用也将得到加强。)”可知，中国政府对中医的支持包括加强医疗机构的中医服务（对应D选项）、将互联网技术与中医结合（对应B选项）、更好地利用中医的优势（对应C选项），而A选项It calls on the public to support TCM.(它号召公众支持中医)在文中未提及。故选A。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“As long as TCM keeps its core strengths and respects the rules of development and innovation, it will surely be able to maintain its vitality and bring more benefits to people in China and the world.(只要中医保持其核心优势，尊重发展和创新的规律，它一定能够保持其生命力，为中国和世界人民带来更多的福祉。)”可以看出作者认为中医只要发挥自身优势、遵循规律就能带来更多好处，所以对中医持支持的态度。故选A。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文可知，文章主要讲述了中医是中国的文化象征之一，中医和西医有各自的优势，如今中国政府制定政策支持中医的发展和创新，中医在新的形势下有了新的发展方向，有望为人们带来更多好处。D选项TCM Breaks New Ground.(中医开辟了新的天地。)，既提到了中医的发展，又能体现出在新的政策支持下中医有了新的发展，符合文章主旨。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。 Space exploration has made remarkable progress in 2024.

Construction on the Long Room, the library’s 65-meter-long main hall, began in 1712 and lasted 20 years. The original structure only had books on the lower level, but when the library’s shelves were filled in the 1850s, the ceiling was raised to accommodate even more books. Today the Long Room holds 200,000 of the library’s oldest books. Stuttgart City Library Opened in 2011, the German library is a splendid light-gray cube consisting of glass blocks designed by Eun Young Yi. Inside it, you’ll find an airy central room, above which sits a multi-story stepped reading room lined with bookshelves. The library towers over the nearby buildings. Library of Parliament Taking the form of a Victorian Gothic chapter house complete with 16 flying buttresses, the 1876 Library of Parliament is one of Canada’s prized architectural treasures — it’s on the ten-dollar bill. Architects Thomas Fuller and Chilion Jones took inspiration from the British Museum Reading Room for the structure, lining the central hall with delicate wood shelves and wood carvings. Rampur Raza Library Founded in the late 18th century, the Indian library is home to a massive collection of Islamic and Asian texts and objects. The pink structure that houses the collection today was built in 1904 by Nawab Hamid Ali Khan as a mansion of Indo-European style, The Rampur Raza Library was later shifted to this grand building in 1957. 1.

A. They house the rarest books. B. They were unusually designed. C. They were expanded as needed. D. They overlook surrounding buildings. B It is easy for us to know the difference between our friends and our enemies. But can other animals do the same? Elephants can! They can use their sense of vision and smell to tell the difference between people who pose a threat and those who do not. In Kenya, researchers find that elephants react differently to clothing worn by men of the Maasai and Kamba ethnic groups. Young Maasai men spear (刺) animals and thus pose a threat to elephants; Kamba men are mainly farmers and are not a danger to elephants. In an experiment conducted by animal scientists, elephants were first presented with clean clothing or clothing that had been worn for five days by either a Maasai or a Kamba man. When the elephants noticed the smell of clothing worn by a Maasai man, they moved away from the smell faster and took longer to relax than when they noticed the smells of either clothing worn by Kamba men or clothing that had not been worn at all. Clothing color also plays a role. In the same study, when the elephants saw red clothing not worn before, they reacted angrily, as red is typically worn by Maasai men. Rather than running away as they did with the smell, the elephants acted aggressively toward the red clothing. The researchers believe that the elephants’ emotional reactions are due to their different senses of the smells and the sights. Smelling a potential danger means that a threat is nearby and the best thing to do is run away and hide. Seeing a potential threat without its smell means that risk is low. Therefore, instead of showing fear and running away, the elephants express their anger and become aggressive. 4. What character does the author want to express about elephants A. Clever. B. Friendly. C. Dangerous. D. Naughty. 5. Which of the following is the most dangerous sign for elephants? A. The color of Kamba men’s clothes. B. The smell of Kamba men’s clothes. C. The smell of Maasai men’s clothes. D. The red clothes not worn before. 6 What can be inferred about the elephants behavior from this passage? A Elephants are more intelligent than other animals. B. Elephants learn from their experience. C. Elephants have sharper sense of smell than sight. D. Elephants tend to attack rather than escape when in danger. 7. In-which magazine will the passage be found most probably? A. Newsweek. B. Nature. C. Fashion. D. Business Weekly. C A few years ago, you went on a vacation with friends, creating lasting memories — walking along the beach, swimming in the sea, and enjoying breathtaking sunsets. However, the trip wasn’t all smooth sailing: long drives, food issues, and unpredictable weather. Yet, over time, you tend to remember the beautiful moments while the inconveniences fade. This is known as rosy retrospection, a cognitive bias (认知偏见) where people recall past experiences more positively than they felt during the actual event. The phenomenon can be understood as the complex interaction of cognitive mechanisms that shape our memory processes. When recalling memories, our brains tend to focus on positive details and downplay negative aspects, which helps maintain emotional well-being. Nostalgia (怀旧) also plays a significant role, as it arouses feelings of warmth and belonging, leading us to view the past more positively. Additionally, our current emotional state and self-enhancement bias can influence how we remember past events, making them seem more favorable. While some individuals who focus more on negative experiences may be at a higher risk of mood disorders such as depression, rosy retrospection can elevate our moods, increase life satisfaction, and even help us cope with difficult present circumstances by providing a sense of continuity and positive self-identity (自我认同). However, rosy retrospection occasionally creates an unrealistic view of the past, which can lead people to make decisions that are not based on reality but rather on their idealized memories. It’s one of the reasons why we might repeatedly return to unhealthy relationships. The longer the time that has passed since the event, the more likely we are to let the good memories outweigh the bad memories and perhaps even forgive unforgivable behavior. Understanding and acknowledging this cognitive bias can be crucial for making accurate and beneficial decisions. 8. How do people with rosy retrospection typically behave? A. They forget negative moments easily. B. They recall breathtaking details repeatedly. C. They remember adventurous trips more clearly. D. They view previous experiences more positively. 9.

It is a gem of Chinese civilization, and it has also made great contributions to world civilization by improving people’s health and promoting social progress. There used to be a debate in China about whether TCM or Western medicine was better, and arguments can still be heard today. But actually, TCM and western medicine are two different medical theoretical systems that can not replace each other. In some aspects such as surgery, Western medicine is better than TCM, but in other areas, such as recovery after surgery and treatment of chronic (慢性的) diseases, TCM is more effective. This is why some Chinese hospitals provide both TCM and Western medicine treatments. A combination of both has been accepted by many Chinese people as the most effective treatment. Today, promoting and innovating TCM has become a consensus (共识) in Chinese society. The Chinese government has formulated policies to support the development and innovation of TCM, with a view to establishing a Chinese healthcare development model paying equal attention to both. The supportive policies of the Chinese Government will focus on three aspects. The first is the strengthening of TCM services in medical institutions. The second is to apply Internet technology to TCM management, including setting up a database containing TCM electronic medical records and prescriptions (处方). The third is to give better play to the advantages of TCM, especially acupuncture (针灸) and naprapathy (推拿). The function of TCM in disease prevention and recovery will also be enhanced. As long as TCM keeps its core strengths and respects the rules of development and innovation, it will surely be able to maintain its vitality and bring more benefits to people in China and the world. 12. What advantage does Western medicine have over TCM? A. It is a symbol of national civilization. B. It is more successful in recovery after surgery. C. It is more effective in surgery. D. It is more effective in treating chronic diseases. 13. According to paragraph 4, which of the following aspects is NOT included in the Chinese government supports for TCM? A. It calls on the public to support TCM. B. It combines Internet Technology with TCM. C. It makes better use of the advantages of TCM . D. It increases TCM services in hospitals and medical centers. 14. What can be inferred about the author’s opinion on TCM? A. Supportive. B. Critical. C. Unclear. D. Skeptical. 15. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. TCM Beats Western Medicine. B. Chinese Government Promotes TCM. C. TCM is One of China's Cultural Symbols. D. TCM Breaks New Ground. 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。 Space exploration has made remarkable progress in 2024.
