B Thirteen-year-old Kaylee has a lot of friends — 532, actually, if you count up her online friends. And she spends a lot of time with them. But is it possible that Kaylee’s online friendship could be making her lonely? That’s what some experts believe. Connecting online is a great way to stay in touch, they say. However, some experts worry that many kids are so busy connecting online that they might be missing out on true friendship. Could this be true? During your parents’ childhoods, connecting with friends usually meant spending time with them in the flesh. Kids played Scrabble around a table, not Words With Friends on their phones. When friends missed each other, they picked up the telephone. Friends might even write letters to each other. Today, most communication takes place online. A typical teenager sends 2,000 texts a month and spends more than 44 hours per week in front of a screen. Much of his time is spent on social media platforms (平台) like Instagram and Facebook. In fact, in many ways, online communication enables frlendship to be stronger. “There’s obviously a positive influence. Kids can stay in constant contact, which means they can share more of their feelings with each other,” says Katie Davis, co-author of The App Generation. Other experts, however, warn that too much online communication can get in the way of forming deep friendship. “If we are constantly checking out our virtual (虚拟的) world, we will be addicted and have little time for our real-world friendship,” says Rosen, a professor at California State University. Rosen also worries that today’s kids might mistake the “friends” on social media for true friends in life. However, in tough times, you don’t need someone to like. your pictures or share your blogs. You need someone who will keep your secrets and hold your hand. You would like to talk face to face. 4. What is the purpose of the first paragraph? A To summarize the text. B. To tell something about true friends. C. To bring up a topic. D. To encourage online friendship. 5. What does the underlined part “in the flesh” mean in Paragraph 3? A. In any case. B. In person. C. In a hurry. D. In advance. 6. What is Katie’s attitude towards online communication? A. Positive. B. Unconcerned. C. Confused. D. Worried. 7. What view does Rosen hold? A. It’s wise to turn to online friend. B. It’s easier to develop friendships in reality. C. Social media help people stay closely connected. D. Teenager on real-world friendships. C American culture is unique because it is formed and developed under certain conditions.The major factors contributing to the making of this flew nation and the forming of a new culture are the hard environment,ethnic diversity (多民族) and plural religion,which is quite different from other nations in the world.What is more,these elements are still influencing the American culture. The early immigrants who were English Puritans settled down in northeast part of America.From 1607 to 1892, frontiers were pushed further west. The frontiersmen looked for a land of rich resources and a land of promise,opportunity and freedom. Actually they looked for a better life.So individualism (个人主义), self-reliance, and equality of opportunity have perhaps been the values most closely associated with the frontier heritage (遗产) of America. In history, people from different countries in the world rushed to America three times.They brought their own culture to America and later on, different cultures were mixed together.Thus the unique American culture is formed, a common cultural life with commonly shared values. The fundamental American belief in individual freedom and the fight of individuals to practice their own religion is at the center of religious experience in the United StatesThe great diversity of ethnic backgrounds has produced religious pluralism; almost all of the religions of the world are now practiced in the United States. Nowadays, we can see the continual influence of the three elements in the current American society. American family is typically parents and their unmarried children.Middle-aged and elderly people generally do not live with their married children.The people in America have a very strong desire to start a new life in a new place. Quite a number of people change residences every year.The average American moves fourteen times in his lifetime. 8. We can learn from this article that ________. A. the frontiersmen left important society values for American culture B. the early immigrants brought about the unique American culture C. people in the world once rushed to America because of its unique culture D. the American family members don’t get along well with each other 9. What’s the author’s attitude towards American culture? A. He is critical of it. B. He admires it very much. C. He just states the facts. D. He looks down upon it. 10.

What might be the most suitable title of this article? A. The Immigrants in America. B. Why American Culture is Unique. C. The Influence of American Culture. D. Plural Religion and American Culture. D In the classic mirror test, an animal is marked on an area of the body by scientists and then placed before a mirror. If the animal touches or explores the mark, it is taken as an indication that it regards the reflected image as an image of itself, rather than of another animal. Now, scientists have carried out the experiment with two species of snakes: 18 African ball pythons and 36 eastern garter snakes. Because of snakes’ poor ability to see, the researchers adapted the classic mirror test. They collected five scents: The snake’s own scent, its own scent mixed with olive oil, the scent of pure olive oil, the scent of another snake and the scent of another snake mixed with olive oil. African ball pythons spent a similar amount of time with each scent. But eastern garter snakes paid much more attention to their own scent that had been mixed with that of olive oil. The scientists suggest the garter snakes recognized themselves by noticing the unexpected change in their smell. “They only do long tongue flicks (轻弹) when they’re interested in something,” Miller says “I think their experimental model is more powerful than the mirror test,” Rulon Clark, a biologist, says. “A highly reflective mirrored surface doesn’t have a lot of equals in the natural environment. But researching chemical signals like scents left by a species and its fellow members well informs ourselves about how the species learns about itself and interacts with the environment.” Researchers conducted a similar study in 2021 with 24 eastern garter snakes. Instead of scents and olive oil, they observed the snakes’ interest in cage liners (衬垫) — their own, versus those of other snakes with both similar and dissimilar diets. By observing how long a snake flicked its tongue before each liner, that team also showed that the snakes focused on their own scents more than others’. “Snakes are believed to be boring animals that are not very smart but our research shows that they display many of the same clever features as other animals. We can make progress in this field if we respect the species’ biology and way of dealing with the world and ask the right questions,” Gordon Burghardt, the study’s lead author, says. 12. What is the classic mirror test intended to test about animals? A. Natural changes in their looks. B. Their self-recognition ability. C. Differences in their vision. D. Their adaptability. 13. How did the researchers adapt the mirror test for snakes? A. By adding mirror types. B. By including two species. C. By giving them vision training. D. By relying on their sense of smell. 14. Why is the new experimental model considered more powerful? A. It enables deeper exploration of animal behavior. B. It can drive better treatment of chemical scents. C. It benefits nature protection during studies. D. It can reduce competition among species. 15. What inspiration does Gordon Burghardt probably want to share? A. Trying to learn from research failures. B. Exploring less-noticed research topics. C. Designing species-specific research methods. D. Exchanging ideas with scientists in different fields. 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。 How to be energetic all the time Many people often lack energy and feel tired.

D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍的是专家对现在的青少年把更多的时间用于网上交友很担忧，认为青少年如果不断地关注虚拟世界，他们将几乎没有时间在现实世界建立真正的友谊。 【4题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段的“Thirteen-year-old Kaylee has a lot of friends — 532, actually, if you count up her online friends. And she spends a lot of time with them.(13岁的Kaylee有很多朋友，如果算上她的网上朋友，实际上是532个。她花了很多时间和他们在一起)”以及第二段的“But is it possible that Kaylee’s online friendships could be making her lonely?(但是，Kaylee的网络友谊可能会让她感到孤独吗？)”和“However, some experts worry that many kids are so busy connecting online that they might be missing out on true friendships.(然而，一些专家担心，许多孩子忙于上网，可能会错过真正的友谊。)”可知，通过介绍Kaylee拥有很多网上的朋友并花大量时间与他们交流的事实，引出了下文对于网络友谊是否可能导致孤独感以及网络社交对青少年真正友谊的影响的讨论，由此可推知，第一段的目的是引出一个讨论话题。故选C项。 【5题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线短语所在的句子“During your parents’ childhoods, connecting with friends usually meant spending time with them (在你父母的童年时期，与朋友建立联系通常意味着与他们共度时光)”以及“Kids played Scrabble around a table, not Words With Friends on their phones. (孩子们在桌子旁玩争抢游戏，而不是在电话里玩Words With Friends。)”可知，在父母的童年时代，与朋友交往通常意味着亲自在一起，孩子们围桌游戏，而不是在手机上玩Words With Friends，由此可知，画线短语的意思与“亲自”的意义相近。故选B项。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据第五段中的““There’s obviously a positive influence. Kids can stay in constant contact, which means they can share more of their feelings with each other,” says Katie Davis, co-author of The App Generation. (“这显然是一种积极的影响。孩子们可以保持不断的联系，这意味着他们可以彼此分享更多的感受，”《App一代》的合著者Katie Davis说。)”可知，她认为网络交流有积极影响，孩子们可以保持持续的联系，分享更多情感，由此可推知，Katie对网上交流的态度是积极的。故选A项。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据尾段中的““If we are constantly checking out our virtual (虚拟的) world, we will be addicted and have little time for our real-world friendship,” says Rosen, a professor at California State University. (“如果我们不断浏览虚拟世界，我们就会上瘾，没有时间和现实世界的友谊相处，”加州州立大学教授Rosen说。)”以及“You need someone who will keep your secrets and hold your hand. You would like to talk face to face. (你需要一个能保守你的秘密并牵着你的手的人。你想面对面交谈。)”可知，Rosen认为过度沉浸在虚拟世界中会影响现实世界的友谊，青少年需要关注现实生活中的友谊，需要有人能面对面地交流和支持，由此可知，Rosen支持现实世界中的友谊。故选D项。 C American culture is unique because it is formed and developed under certain conditions.The major factors contributing to the making of this flew nation and the forming of a new culture are the hard environment,ethnic diversity (多民族) and plural religion,which is quite different from other nations in the world.What is more,these elements are still influencing the American culture.

B 【解析】 【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了促成美国文化的独特性的三个主要因素。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段第四句“Actually they looked for a better life.So individualism (个人主义), self-reliance, and equality of opportunity have perhaps been the values most closely associated with the frontier heritage (遗产) of America.”(事实上，他们追求的是更好的生活，所以个人主义、自力更生和机会平等也许是与美国边疆传统最密切相关的价值观。)可知，边疆人为美国文化留下了重要的社会价值观。故选A。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段第二句“The major factors contributing to the making of this flew nation and the forming of a new culture are the hard environment,ethnic diversity (多民族) and plural religion,which is quite different from other nations in the world.”(艰苦的环境、民族多样性和宗教多元性是促成这个民族形成和新文化形成的主要因素，这些因素与世界上其他民族有很大的不同。)和最后一段第一句“Nowadays, we can see the continual influence of the three elements in the current American society.”(今天，我们可以看到这三个因素在当今美国社会的持续影响。)可知，文章主要是讲艰苦的环境、民族多样性和宗教多元性对美国文化和民族形成的影响，作者只是陈述事实，并没有表达个人观点。故选C。 【10题详解】 主旨大意题。根据最后一段第一句“Nowadays, we can see the continual influence of the three elements in the current American society.”(今天，我们可以看到这三个因素在当今美国社会的持续影响。)可知，最后一段主要是讲这三个因素对当代美国社会的影响。故选B。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段第一句和第二句“American culture is unique because it is formed and developed under certain conditions.The major factors contributing to the making of this flew nation and the forming of a new culture are the hard environment,ethnic diversity (多民族) and plural religion,which is quite different from other nations in the world.”(美国文化之所以独特，是因为它是在一定条件下形成和发展起来的，艰苦的环境、民族多样性和宗教多元性是促成这个民族形成和新文化形成的主要因素，这与世界上其他民族有很大的不同。)可知，文章主要是讲美国文化的独特性是如何形成的。故选B。 D In the classic mirror test, an animal is marked on an area of the body by scientists and then placed before a mirror. If the animal touches or explores the mark, it is taken as an indication that it regards the reflected image as an image of itself, rather than of another animal. Now, scientists have carried out the experiment with two species of snakes: 18 African ball pythons and 36 eastern garter snakes. Because of snakes’ poor ability to see, the researchers adapted the classic mirror test. They collected five scents: The snake’s own scent, its own scent mixed with olive oil, the scent of pure olive oil, the scent of another snake and the scent of another snake mixed with olive oil. African ball pythons spent a similar amount of time with each scent. But eastern garter snakes paid much more attention to their own scent that had been mixed with that of olive oil. The scientists suggest the garter snakes recognized themselves by noticing the unexpected change in their smell. “They only do long tongue flicks (轻弹) when they’re interested in something,” Miller says “I think their experimental model is more powerful than the mirror test,” Rulon Clark, a biologist, says. “A highly reflective mirrored surface doesn’t have a lot of equals in the natural environment. But researching chemical signals like scents left by a species and its fellow members well informs ourselves about how the species learns about itself and interacts with the environment.” Researchers conducted a similar study in 2021 with 24 eastern garter snakes. Instead of scents and olive oil, they observed the snakes’ interest in cage liners (衬垫) — their own, versus those of other snakes with both similar and dissimilar diets. By observing how long a snake flicked its tongue before each liner, that team also showed that the snakes focused on their own scents more than others’. “Snakes are believed to be boring animals that are not very smart, but our research shows that they display many of the same clever features as other animals. We can make progress in this field if we respect the species’ biology and way of dealing with the world and ask the right questions,” Gordon Burghardt, the study’s lead author, says. 12. What is the classic mirror test intended to test about animals? A. Natural changes in their looks. B. Their self-recognition ability. C. Differences in their vision. D. Their adaptability. 13. How did the researchers adapt the mirror test for snakes? A. By adding mirror types. B. By including two species. C. By giving them vision training. D. By relying on their sense of smell. 14. Why is the new experimental model considered more powerful? A. It enables deeper exploration of animal behavior. B. It can drive better treatment of chemical scents. C. It benefits nature protection during studies. D. It can reduce competition among species. 15. What inspiration does Gordon Burghardt probably want to share? A. Trying to learn from research failures. B. Exploring less-noticed research topics. C. Designing species-specific research methods. D. Exchanging ideas with scientists in different fields. 【答案】12. B 13. D 14. A 15. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。科学家通过改良的“镜子测试”发现，东部束带蛇能通过嗅觉识别自己，挑战了蛇智力有限的普遍观念。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“In the classic mirror test, an animal is marked on an area of the body by scientists and then placed before a mirror. If the animal touches or explores the mark, it is taken as an indication that it regards the reflected image as an image of itself, rather than of another animal.(在经典的镜子测试中，科学家在动物身体的某个部位做上标记，然后把动物放在镜子前。如果动物触摸或探索标记，这就表明它把反射的图像看作是自己的图像，而不是其他动物的图像)”可知，经典镜子测试是为了测试动物的自我识别能力。故选B。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“Because of snakes’ poor ability to see, the researchers adapted the classic mirror test. They collected five scents: The snake’s own scent, its own scent mixed with olive oil, the scent of pure olive oil, the scent of another snake and the scent of another snake mixed with olive oil.(由于蛇的视觉能力很差，研究人员采用了经典的镜子测试。他们收集了五种气味：蛇自己的气味、蛇自己混合橄榄油的气味、纯橄榄油的气味、另一条蛇的气味和另一条蛇混合橄榄油的气味)”可知，科学家调整了原有的“镜子测试”，转而测试蛇的味觉感知能力。故选D。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“A highly reflective mirrored surface doesn’t have a lot of equals in the natural environment. But researching chemical signals like scents left by a species and its fellow members well informs ourselves about how the species learns about itself and interacts with the environment.(高反射率的镜面在自然环境中并没有很多相同的东西。但是，研究一个物种及其同伴留下的气味等化学信号，可以让我们很好地了解这个物种是如何了解自己以及与环境相互作用的)”可知，传统测试中使用的镜子在动物生存环境中并不常见，而动物身上的化学信息有助于人类了解动物的自我认识及与环境的互动，可知新模型有助于人类对动物行为的深度探索。故选A。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段““Snakes are believed to be boring animals that are not very smart, but our research shows that they display many of the same clever features as other animals. We can make progress in this field if we respect the species’ biology and way of dealing with the world and ask the right questions,” Gordon Burghardt, the study’s lead author, says.(“蛇被认为是一种无聊的动物，不太聪明，但我们的研究表明，它们表现出许多与其他动物相同的聪明特征。如果我们尊重物种的生物学和与世界打交道的方式，并提出正确的问题，我们就能在这一领域取得进展，”该研究的主要作者戈登·伯格哈特说)”可推知，Gordon Burghardt想说明研究者应采用与物种生物特性匹配的研究方法。故选C。 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。 How to be energetic all the time Many people often lack energy and feel tired.

He was the only son to his parents. His father was a carpenter and his mother was a housewife. Although they weren't rich, they led a happy life. Mike’s school was located a mile away from his home. Mike’s birthday was coming in a week. He requested his father to buy him a bicycle so that he could go to school by bicycle. His father also promised to buy him a bicycle so that he needn't walk to school anymore. Mike felt so happy. The birthday boy woke up happily with his parents wishing him with all smiles. He was glad and expected that his father would gift him a bicycle. His father gave him a nicely-wrapped gift. Mike opened it and saw a set of books. Although he was a little unhappy as he did not receive a bicycle, he thanked his father. Mike’s father was depressed as he did not have enough money to buy Mike a bicycle. He promised to his son that he would buy him a bicycle soon. After a week, when Mike was walking on his way to his home back from school, he saw a boy riding a bicycle. Mike felt that the bicycle was too small for the big boy. Suddenly, the boy crashed into a post around the corner and skidded (滑行) in the street. Mike rushed to him and recognized that the boy was his schoolmate, Sam. 注意： 1、所续写短文的词数应为150左右； 2、续写部分分为两段，每段的开头语已为你写好； Paragraph 1 Sam was injured badly and there was no one nearby to help him except Mike. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2 Sam and his parents thanked Mike for the timely help. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】One possible version: Sam was injured badly and there was no one nearby to help him except Mike. Mike helped him stand up, examined his body and picked up his bicycle. Sam’s left leg and hands were severely injured. Mike asked Sam to sit in a corner and then he took the bicycle to get help. Ten minutes later, an ambulance came and took Sam to hospital. Mike rushed to Sam’s home and told his parents about the accident. (61 words) Sam and his parents thanked Mike for the timely help. Mike told Sam’s parents that the bicycle was too small for Sam to ride and that was why he was injured. Sam and Mike became close friends soon. Mike visited Sam every day in hospital until he left hospital. Sam got a new bicycle and he came to know that Mike didn't have his own bicycle. He gave his old bicycle to Mike and with Mike's parents' permission, Mike accepted the gift from Sam.(74 words) 【解析】 【分析】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了Mike家庭并不富有，但过着幸福的生活。Mike的生日要到了，他希望父亲给他买一辆自行车，父亲也答应给他买。生日当天，Mike收到精美的礼物，但不是自行车，而是一套书，因为父亲没有足够的钱买自行车。一个星期后，Mike放学回家，看到一个男孩骑着自行车撞到一根柱子上。Mike冲过去，发现是自己的同学Sam。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“Sam受了重伤，除了迈克，附近没有人帮助他。”可知，第一段可描写Mike帮助Sam的经过。 ②由第二段首句内容“Sam和他的父母感谢Mike的及时帮助。”可知，第二段可描写Sam与Mike成为好朋友，最终把自己的旧自行车赠与Mike。 2.续写线索：帮助——送医院——告知Sam父母——看望——赠与——接受 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①.帮助：help sb. do sth./assist sb. in doing sth./ come (go) to one’s aid / aid sb. to do sth/aid sb. in doing sth. ②.急忙到Sam家：rush to Sam’s home / hurry to Sam’s home/ run to Sam’s home fast ③.允许：with one’s permission / get permission from / with one’s approval 情绪类 感谢：thank / be thankful for/appreciate/ be grateful to 【点睛】[高分句型1].
