I'd say a good CV should cover no more than two sides of A4 paper and be divided into clear headings. The first section(19) should include personal details：name, address, telephone number, email and so on. Some employers like to see a photo, too. Next comes education and qualifications starting with the most recent things.(17)(19) The third section(19) deals with work experience—again starting with the most recent job.I think it's important here to be brief. You don't need to use complete sentences as long as it's very clear about what you've done. Following this(19) is the section on professional skills. Show the employer your abilities, including your ability to use IT and foreign languages.Perhaps the most important thing is to show how you meet the requirements in the job advertisement.(18) Finally(19), detail your interests. An employer likes to know what kind of person you are and things like team sports, for example, show this. 第二部分　阅读(共两节，满分50分) 第一节(共15小题；每小题2.5分，满分37.5分) 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中， 选出最佳选项。 A The whole idea behind the US National Park Service was to preserve natural and historic locations, and the wildlife that lives there. The goal allows for inclusion of any place that features natural beauty, unique geological features, or an interesting ecosystem, plus the sites of national monuments and other places of historical or archaeological significance. We've selected three US national parks that are as different from each other as possible. Let's start in the northeastern corner of the US, with a beautiful park called Acadia National Park. Acadia National Park Acadia National Park is in Eastern Maine, near the town of Bar Harbour. The park is unique, in that it features a wide variety of landscapes, including mountains, ocean coastlines, woodlands, lakes, and wetlands. It covers a total of about 49，000 acres. The park is home to around 40 species of mammals, including black bears, moose, and deer. There are 30 fish species and 338 bird species. Everglades National Park Unlike many national parks, Everglades National Park was initially created to protect a fragile and disappearing ecosystem. The Everglades consists of a network of wetlands and forests that are fed by a river flowing slowly out of Lake Okeechobee. The Everglades covers a massive area, and Everglades National Park protects only the southern twenty percent. It's the United States' largest subtropical(亚热带的) wilderness. Hawaii Volcanoes National Park Hawaii Volcanoes National Park is located on the Big Island of Hawaii. It was founded in 1916. The park features two active volcanoes, one of which, Mauna Loa, is the world's largest shield volcano. The other, Kilauea, is considered to be the world's most active volcano. Hawaii Volcanoes National Park lets visitors get close to the two volcanoes. Odd­looking lava(岩浆)fields and dramatic landscapes captivate the eye, and you can learn about the rare plants and animals that thrive in the tough environment. (　A　)21. What is the US National Park Service aimed to do? A. Protect natural and historic resources. B. Rebuild old and important constructions. C. Appreciate natural and geological beauty. D. Make ecosystems entertaining for people. (　B　)22. In which park can you experience a rich diversity of landscapes and wildlife? A. None of them. B. Acadia National Park. C. Everglades National Park. D. Hawaii Volcanoes National Park. (　C　)23. What can visitors do in Hawaii Volcanoes National Park? A. Learn about ecosystem protection. B. Enjoy tropical wilderness landscapes. C. Get close to two volcanoes. D. Study lava samples in a tough environment. 【语篇解读】本文主要介绍了美国三个各具特色的国家公园。 21. A　细节理解题。根据第一段首句“The whole idea behind the US National Park Service was to preserve natural and historic locations, and the wildlife that lives there.(美国国家公园系统背后的整个理念是保护自然和历史地点以及生活在那里的野生动物。)”可知，美国国家公园系统旨在保护自然和历史资源。故选A。 22. B　细节理解题。根据Acadia National Park部分的第一段第二句“The park is unique, in that it features a wide variety of landscapes, including mountains, ocean coastlines, woodlands, lakes, and wetlands.(这个公园是独一无二的，因为它以各种各样的景观为特色，包括山脉、海岸线、林地、湖泊和湿地。)”以及第二段中的“The park is home to around 40 species of mammals(这个公园是大约40种哺乳动物的家)”和“There are 30 fish species and 338 bird species.(公园里有30种鱼类和338种鸟类。)”可知，在阿科底亚国家公园你可以体验到自然景观和野生动物的丰富多样性。故选B。 23. C　细节理解题。根据Hawaii Volcanoes National Park部分的第一段最后两句“The park features two active volcanoes, one of which, Mauna Loa, is the world's largest shield volcano. The other, Kilauea, is considered to be the world's most active volcano.(公园内有两座活火山，其中的莫纳罗亚火山是世界上最大的盾状火山。另一座是基拉韦厄火山，被认为是世界上最活跃的火山。)”和第二段首句“Hawaii Volcanoes National Park lets visitors get close to the two volcanoes.(夏威夷火山国家公园让游客近距离接触这两座火山。)”可知，在夏威夷火山国家公园，你可以近距离接触两座火山。故选C。 B On the morning drive from my treehouse at Yuquiyú to El Yunque National Forest in Puerto Rico, I looked the part of the Prepared Hiker. I wore durable shoes. My backpack was filled with bug spray, sunscreen and enough water. And yet as I approached the main gate, I realised I had forgotten what was becoming the most critical item: knowing a park's special entry requirements. “Reservations Required” read the sign, upsetting my plans. From inside the car, I checked recreation.gov for the next available reservation, but on a holiday weekend, the park was fully booked. I ended up in Luquillo, walking on the beach. Really, I should have known better. When I visited Puerto Rico last February, norms(规范)had been changed for nearly a year. Travellers were heading to public places run by the National Park Service, the U．S. Forest Service and the Bureau of Land Management, and crowding weak environments. At Great Smoky Mountains National Park, more than 375，000 people hiked Laure Falls Trail in 2020, an additional 110，000 pairs of feet from the previous year. In 2021, Yellowstone National Park set a record in July for the most­visited month in its nearly 150­year history, with almost 1.1 million recreation(娱乐) visits. Also last year, Acadia National Park in Maine received more than 4 million visitors for the first time. So officials introduced reservation systems to help them control the number of people who can enter the park or access specific roads or trails in a single day. “The nationwide trend of changing visitation patterns requires continual innovation and effective ways to manage visitor use to ensure that these special places benefit current and future generations，” Stephanie Roulett, a public affairs specialist with the National Park Service, said. “As a result, parks are exploring many different tools that are most effective for their situation to help them improve how visitors get to and experience popular park resources and features.” (　B　)24． What did the author realise at the gate of El Yunque National Forest? A. He was less experienced than other hikers. B. He forgot to check the entry requirements. C. He left his supplies in his car. D. He lost his backpack. (　B　)25． What has changed in national parks? A. The natural environment has improved. B. The number of visitors has been growing. C. The threats to the parks have been reduced. D. The management of the parks is getting easier. (　A　)26. Why were reservation systems introduced into national parks? A. To control the crowd entering parks. B. To increase the incomes of parks. C. To monitor visitors' behaviour. D. To attract more visitors. (　D　)27. What is Stephanie Roulett's attitude to reservation systems? A. Thankful. B. Uncaring. C. Doubtful. D. Supportive. 【语篇解读】本文主要介绍了美国的国家公园引进游客预约系统，防止过多的游客涌入公园。 24. B　细节理解题。根据第一段中的“And yet as I approached the main gate, I realised I had forgotten what was becoming the most critical item: knowing a park's special entry requirements.(然而，当我走近正门时，我意识到我忘记了最重要的一件事：了解公园的特殊进入要求。)”可知，作者抵达云雀国家森林公园的门口后才意识到他来之前没有查看入园须知。故选B。 25. B　细节理解题。根据第三段中的“Travellers were heading to public places run by the National Park Service, the U.S. Forest Service and the Bureau of Land Management, and crowding weak environments. At Great Smoky Mountains National Park, more than 375，000 people hiked Laure Falls Trail in 2020, an additional 110，000 pairs of feet from the previous year.(游客们前往国家公园管理局、国家森林管理局和土地管理局管理的公共场所，拥挤在脆弱的环境中。在大雾山国家公园，超过37.5万人在2020年徒步旅行劳尔瀑布小径，比前一年增加了11万人。)”可知，越来越多的游客选择去国家公园游玩，亲近大自然。故选B。 26. A　细节理解题。根据第四段最后一句“So officials introduced reservation systems to help them control the number of people who can enter the park or access specific roads or trails in a single day.(因此，官员们引入了预约系统，以帮助他们控制一天内可以进入公园或进入特定道路或小径的人数。)”可知，公园引进预约系统的目的是控制入园游客的数量。故选A。 27. D　推理判断题。根据最后一段中Stephanie Roulett所说的话“As a result, parks are exploring many different tools that are most effective for their situation to help them improve how visitors get to and experience popular park resources and features.(因此，公园正在探索许多不同的工具，这些工具对他们的情况最有效，以帮助他们改善游客到达和体验受欢迎的公园资源和特色的方式。)”可推断出，Stephanie Roulett对公园使用预约系统这一举措是赞同的。故选D。 C Most people are fond of theme parks. I enjoy them as much as my kids. However, not everyone agrees with me. My wife is terrified of anything more exciting than the merry­go­round. So why do I love The Big One in Blackpool while she goes white on hearing the words “roller coaster”？ According to psychologists, it comes down to something called a “Type T” personality. People with this personality are usually thrill­seekers who welcome the uncertainty of activities that most people would find hair­raising. It seems some of us enjoy the physical sensations associated with fear: the adrenaline(肾上腺素) rush and the beating heart. Scary rides make us feel alive. Terrifying experiences encourage a sense of excitement though we only enjoy them when we are within a “protective frame”. Recent research has found certain genes(基因) which may be responsible for those of us with “Type T” personalities. Biochemists have separated a gene called DRD4 which seems more common in roller coaster lovers like me. New technologies have allowed engineers to design coasters that change speeds quickly, shoot up hundreds of feet into the air and make all sorts of twists. Research suggests that extreme rides tend to appeal to those who lead stressful or controlled lives. It's certainly true that roller coasters are a way of breaking out of the humdrum(乏味的) expectations of everyday life. Theme parks allow us to act like children again, to experience true excitement and behave a little wildly. Where else as an adult can you scream at the top of your lungs and throw your arms in the air without being sent for psychological evaluation? If you're looking for a great place this summer where you can get the thrilling experience, head for the nearest theme park. It's a scream! (　D　)28．What can we know about the author's wife? A．She is frightened of the merry­go­round. B．She always agrees with the author. C．She loves The Big One in Blackpool. D．She fears extreme rides. (　C　)29．What has the recent research found about the “Type T” personality? A．It is common among people. B．It is caused by living separately. C．It is genetically determined. D．It is a result of a physical disorder. (　A　)30．What can we infer from Paragraph 4? A．Extreme rides help relieve stress. B．We can act like children in theme parks. C．Extreme rides contribute to good parent­kid relationships. D．Extreme rides are a replacement for psychological evaluation. (　D　)31．What's the author's attitude towards theme parks? A．Critical. B．Disapproving. C．Uninterested. D．Supportive. 【语篇解读】本文主要介绍了一些人喜欢极限运动的原因。 28．D　细节理解题。根据第一段中“My wife is terrified of anything more exciting than the merry­go­round. So why do I love The Big One in Blackpool while she goes white on hearing the words ‘roller coaster’？(我妻子害怕比旋转木马更刺激的东西。那么为什么我喜欢Blackpool的The Big One，而她一听到‘过山车’就脸色苍白？)”可知，作者的妻子害怕刺激的极限运动。故选D。 29．C　细节理解题。根据第三段中“Recent research has found certain genes(基因) which may be responsible for those of us with ‘Type T’ personalities.(最近的研究发现某些基因可能是T型人格形成的主要原因。)”可知，T型人格的形成是由基因决定的。故选C。 30．A　推理判断题。根据第四段中“Research suggests that extreme rides tend to appeal to those who lead stressful or controlled lives. It's certainly true that roller coasters are a way of breaking out of the humdrum(乏味的) expectations of everyday life.(研究表明，极限游乐设施往往会吸引那些承受巨大压力的人，过山车是一种能够打破乏味生活的好方式。)”可推断出，类似过山车这种极限运动可以帮助人们缓解压力。故选A。 31．D　推理判断题。根据最后一段“If you're looking for a great place this summer where you can get the thrilling experience, head for the nearest theme park. It's a scream！(如果你想在这个夏天找一个能让你兴奋的地方，那就去最近的主题公园，它绝对能让你尖叫！)”可知，作者提供了一个去主题公园的建议。由此可以推断出，作者对主题公园是持支持的态度。故选D。 D What should we get for our kids this holiday? As children get older, giving them something they can experience instead of material things makes them happier, according to new research led by Chaplin. The research compared the level of happiness children get from material things with that from experiences. The results showed that children aged between 3 and 12 get more happiness from material things than from experiences. However, older children get more happiness from experiences than from their possessions. “It means experiences are highly preferred by adolescents, not just expensive material things, like some might think，” Chaplin says. She goes on to explain，“Don't get me wrong. Young children do love experiences. And given this concept, theme parks such as Disneyland are being built everywhere. In fact, young children are excited throughout the experience. However, for experiences to provide lasting happiness, children must be able to recall details of the events.” Long after they have unwrapped their Lego and stuffed animals, there will still be a physical reminder to give them happiness. However, young children can't see or touch experiences after they are over, making it harder for them to appreciate experiences after a long time. There's an easy fix,_though, according to Chaplin. “Take pictures or videos of family walks, playing in the snow, and birthday parties，” she said.“Children are likely to appreciate those experiences more if there is something to remind them of the event. Additionally, they'll be able to learn the social value of shared experiences.” Children will remember and appreciate not only the birthday gifts they received, but also the time spent with family and friends as they recall the experience through concrete reminders such as photos and videos. Since memory is developed over time, it's likely that children, especially young ones, may not get as much happiness from past experiences as from possessions. But with age, creating new memories and exploring new interests may be far more valuable than getting possessions. (　C　)32．Why are theme parks springing up according to Chaplin? A．They can offer children lasting happiness. B．Events in them are centred on specific themes. C．Direct involvement in events there caters for children. D．Kids have an affection for the atmosphere they offer. (　A　)33．The underlined word “fix” in Paragraph 4 can be replaced by “________”． A．solution B．arrangement C．preparation D．focus (　D　)34．Which of the following would Chaplin probably agree with? A．Videos appeal to children more than gifts. B．Lego and stuffed animals are not kids' cup of tea. C．Older children value family time more than younger ones. D．Physical reminders help children remember past experiences better. (　A　)35．What can be inferred from the passage? A．Experiences are better gifts for older children. B．Social values should be put in the first place. C．New interests are most precious for children. D．Material possessions bring more happiness to children. 【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。研究表明，随着孩子年龄的增长，给他们一些他们可以体验的东西，而不是物质的东西，会让他们更快乐。 32．C　细节理解题。根据第三段中“‘It means experiences are highly preferred by adolescents, not just expensive material things, like some might think，’ Chaplin says. She goes on to explain, ‘Don't get me wrong. Young children do love experiences. And given this concept, theme parks such as Disneyland are being built everywhere.’”可知，Chaplin认为青少年更喜欢体验，而不是像有些人想的那样，只喜欢昂贵的物质产品。小孩子确实喜欢体验。考虑到这个概念，像迪士尼这样的主题公园正在世界各地不断涌现。由此可知，参与活动更能迎合孩子的喜好，这是主题公园兴起的原因。故选C。 33．A　词义猜测题。根据第五段中的“‘Take pictures or videos of family walks, playing in the snow, and birthday parties，’ she said.‘Children are likely to appreciate those experiences more if there is something to remind them of the event.’”可知，可以通过拍照片或录视频的方式来应对这个问题。因此fix意为“解决方法”。故选A。 34．D　细节理解题。根据第六段内容可知，孩子们不仅会记住并欣赏收到的生日礼物，还会通过照片、视频等具体的方式来回忆与家人和朋友一起度过的时光。由此可知，孩子能通过像照片和视频这样有形的方式来更好地回忆过去的美好。故选D。 35．A　推理判断题。根据第一段中“As children get older, giving them something they can experience instead of material things makes them happier, according to new research led by Chaplin.”可知，卓别林主导的一项新研究表明，随着孩子年龄的增长，给他们一些他们可以体验的东西，而不是物质的东西，会让他们更快乐。根据第二段可知，这项研究比较了不同年龄的孩子们从物质中获得的幸福程度和从经历中获得的幸福程度。结果显示，3至12岁的孩子从物质上获得的快乐比从经历中获得的多。然而，年龄稍大的孩子从经历中获得的快乐比从他们拥有的东西中获得的多。由此可推断出，经历对更大的孩子来说是更好的礼物。故选A。 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。 Everglades National Park is the largest subtropical wilderness in the country. 36．__C__ It is also the third largest national park in the United States.

The activity included hiking in the nearby mountains, observing wildlife and participating in team­building games. The students also had a chance to set up tents and cook their own meals, which allowed them to experience living in the outdoors. The educational outing was a great success, providing a memorable and valuable experience for all participants. Teachers were impressed by the students' enthusiasm and willingness to learn. 第二节(满分25分) 阅读下面材料， 根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段， 使之构成一篇完整的短文。 I was terrified of heights. Of course, it was not really a fear of being in a high place. Rather, it was the view of a long way to fall, of rocks far below me and no firm wall between me and the edge. My sense of security was screamingly absent. Despite my fear, two summers ago I somehow found myself climbing to a high place, while quaking inside and out. Most of our high school had come along on a day trip to the Boqueron, a beautiful and pleasant spot in the foothills of Peru. Its chief attraction is the main waterfall, about 100 feet high, which thunders into a crystal clear pool feeding the Aguaytia River. All around the pool and on down to the rushing river are rocks large and small. The beach is strewn(布满) with rocks. On both sides of the fall, the jungle stretches to meet it, rising parallel to it on a gentler slope. After eating our lunches, many of us wanted to make the climb to an area above it. We knew others had done so on previous trips. A few guys went first to make sure they were on the right path. But after they left, my group of seven decided to go ahead without waiting for them to return. I suspected we were going the wrong way, but I kept silent, figuring that the others knew better. We went along the base of the hill until we reached the climb. It stopped me in my tracks. The climb rose steeply above us. Along the right edge, the jungle hugged the rocks; passage through its trees seemed unlikely to be achieved. The majority of my view was filled with rocks. Peering back down toward the river, I saw a steep slope of rocks all the way to the water. All I could think about was how far it would be to fall. 注意：1.续写词数应为 150 左右；2.请按如下格式作答。 One possible version： My tense thoughts were interrupted by the realisation that my friends were already beginning to climb!
