She wanted everything to be perfect. “Molly, I am coming!” said Sam, Molly’s little brother, with a small bag in his hand. “Go and pick apples over there.” Molly said coldly, pointing to an old apple tree with small, sour (酸的) apples. She did not want any mistakes with her apple sauce. Sam happily walked away to pick the small apples. Soon he showed Molly his bag and said excitedly, “I have got so many!” Molly did not care. She hoped Sam would stay out of the way so she could rush home and take the perfect apple sauce. As soon as they got home, Molly washed the beautiful apples. Dad helped her cut them and put them into the big pot on the stove. As the apples softened, the kitchen began to smell so sweet. Molly did not care. She hoped Sam would stay out of the way, so she could rush home and make the perfect apple sauce. Suddenly, Sam put his small, sour apples into the pot before Molly could stop him. “No!” Molly cried in anger, trying to pull out Sam’s apples. But it was too late. “It’s OK,” Dad said. “Maybe it won’t be so bad.” But Molly wasn’t so sure. Finally, all the apples turned into apple sauce. Molly refused (拒绝) to try the sauce at first. Dad held a spoon to Molly’s mouth, and she tasted just a little. “Wow!” her eyes lit up. “This tastes amazing!” Dad smiled. “See? Things may not go as planned. Sometimes mistakes can turn out to be good surprises.” Molly nodded with a shy smile. She hugged Sam and said, “We will win first place together this year.” 24. What kind of apples did Molly pick? A.

Almost everybody knows that eating vegetables is good for us. But why do some people like them while others don’t? A new study has found that other people’s likes and dislikes could be a reason. According to the research, people who eat vegetables but show a clear dislike for them can influence others. People may make facial expressions when eating. How does it affect (影响) a person watching them? A team of scientists in the UK did a study. They asked more than 200 young women to watch videos of other adults eating broccoli (西兰花). The people in the videos had different expressions while eating. They would smile, seem neutral (neither happy nor sad), or look disgusted (厌恶的). The study found that when people in the videos looked disgusted while eating broccoli, people watching them began to like broccoli less. The opposite was not true, however. When someone had a smile while eating broccoli, people watching them did not like broccoli more. By watching others, humans learn which behaviors (行为) will be good for them. Scientists believe that people might avoid food that looks terrible. In this way, people can protect themselves from eating something bad or dangerous. The research focused only on adults, but the team believed that the results could also work for children. This means, if children see their parents not enjoying certain foods, including vegetables, they might not want to eat them either. Helping children to try more vegetables is meaningful. “If children are learning about vegetables at school, it’s important to encourage this interest,” says Jones. Parents can listen to their children tell what they have learned and read the handouts they bring home from school. Parents and children can also read books together. Younger children can enjoy reading stories about vegetables with parents. Older children may enjoy searching through cookbooks with parents to find new dinner ideas to cook vegetables in a tasty way. How do the behaviors of adults influence their children’s choices of food? The team hopes to understand more about it. This could help find ways to encourage children to eat healthier food. 27. According to Paragraph 2, what is the result of the study? A People may cook the food others like. B. Children dislike eating certain vegetables. C. People may not choose the food others dislike. D. Young women are easily affected by other people. 28. What will the team probably do next? A. They will study the safety of children’s food. B. They will study the skills to produce healthy food. C. They will study the influences of parents’ behaviors. D. They will study the ways to understand children well. 29. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage? A. Videos Affect Choices of Food B. Studies on Vegetables Help a Lot C. Expressions Cause Possible Dangers D. Opinions on Vegetables Influence Others 【答案】27. C 28. C 29. D 【解析】 【导语】本文讲述了研究表明，人们对蔬菜的喜好会受到他人表情和行为的影响，尤其是父母的行为会影响孩子的食物选择。 【27题详解】 细节理解题。根据“The study found that when people in the videos looked disgusted while eating broccoli, people watching them began to like broccoli less.”可知，当视频中的人吃西兰花时表现出厌恶的表情，观看视频的人对西兰花的喜爱程度会降低，即人们可能不会选择别人不喜欢的食物。故选C。 【28题详解】 推理判断题。根据“How do the behaviors of adults influence their children’s choices of food? The team hopes to understand more about it.”可知，研究团队希望进一步了解成年人的行为如何影响孩子的食物选择，因此他们下一步可能会研究父母行为的影响。故选C。 【29题详解】 最佳标题题。文章主要讨论了人们对蔬菜的喜好如何受到他人表情和行为的影响，尤其是父母的行为对孩子食物选择的影响，因此最佳标题应为“对蔬菜的看法影响他人”。故选D。 D People experience a flow state when they deeply pay attention to an activity that is challenging (挑战) enough to match their skills. Getting into a flow state helps people learn and further develop their skills while also increasing their enjoyment of those skills. In the 1960s, psychologist Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi noticed that many artists fell into this single-minded state while doing their creative work. His research on the topic showed that people can experience flow during different situations, including games like chess, sports like surfing or rock climbing, professional activities like performing surgery (进行手术), or creative activities like writing or painting. Time seems to pass more quickly than usual when people are in this state. He used the term “flow state” to describe this experience because many of the people he interviewed about it said the experience was like being “in flow”. The state of flow can be brought about by any experience, whether work or play, he explained, “It is the full participation of flow, rather than happiness, that makes for excellence in life”. Flow is also valuable for learning and developing skills. He noted the value of increasing challenges, and they should be just a little outside one’s skill set. This encourages the person to stay in the flow state while also helping them to learn new skills. Many people are interested in achieving flow because it can help improve performance and increase happiness. This can be different for different people. While one person may enter a flow state while gardening, another may do so while drawing or running a marathon. The key is to find an activity that the person is passionate (热情的) about and finds enjoyable. In addition, the activity must be challenging enough to need people to raise their skill levels just beyond their abilities. High challenges and high skills will result in deep involvement (参与) in the activity and create the desired flow state. However, the balance between skill level and challenge must be optimal to achieve flow. If the challenge is too high, it can lead to anxiety (焦虑); if the challenge is too low, it can lead to boredom. Today, it can be hard to ensure that one’s environment is good for flow. If noise keeps appearing, it won’t lead to a flow state. You should turn off mobile phones if you want to achieve flow. 30. What can we learn about flow state from the passage? A. People are passionate and noisy when they are in the state of flow. B. Time seems to pass more slowly than usual when people experience flow. C. People may experience flow when they keep their minds deeply on something. D. Flow state can help people protect their environment and then achieve their goals. 31. What does the third paragraph mainly tell us? A. The history of the research. B. The benefits of a flow state. C. The new challenges of a flow state. D. The difficulties of learning new skills. 32. The word “optimal” in Paragraph 5 is closest in meaning to ________. A. just right B. just new C. quite common D. quite opposite 33. The writer probably agrees that ________. A. anxiety can help people get into a flow state B. people will feel bored when the challenge is too high C. people can get into a flow state in all kinds of environments D. both high challenges and skills are necessary for a flow state 【答案】30. C 31. B 32. A 33. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了心理学家米哈里·契克森米哈赖提出的“心流状态”概念，阐述了其特征、触发条件及对个人技能发展和幸福感的影响。 【30题详解】 细节理解题。根据第1段“People experience a flow state when they deeply pay attention to an activity”和第2段“Time seems to pass more quickly than usual when people are in this state”可知，当人们全神贯注于某件事时，他们可能会体验到心流，故选C。 【31题详解】 主旨大意题。第3段“It is the full participation of flow, rather than happiness, that makes for excellence in life”、“Flow is also valuable for learning and developing skills”和“This encourages the person to stay in the flow state while also helping them to learn new skills.”可知，本段核心是讲心流状态的益处。故选B。 【32题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第5段“However, the balance between skill level and challenge must be optimal to achieve flow. If the challenge is too high, it can lead to anxiety (焦虑); if the challenge is too low, it can lead to boredom.”可知，如果挑战太高，可能会导致焦虑；如果挑战太低，会导致厌倦。由此可知，要技能水平和挑战之间的平衡必须是合适的。“optimal”指“恰到好处，刚刚好”。故选A。 【33题详解】 观点态度题。根据第5段“High challenges and high skills will result in deep involvement (参与) in the activity and create the desired flow state.”可知，作者认为高挑战与高技能是心流状态的必要条件。故选D。 第二部分 本部分共5题，共20分。根据题目要求，完成相应任务。 四、阅读表达(第34-36题每题2分，第37题4分，共10分)阅读短文，根据短文内容回答问题。 Have you ever heard of pygmy hippos? Moo Deng is a baby pygmy hippo. She was born in July at the Khao Kheow Open Zoo in Thailand. People like her because she is playful and full of life. Her name, Moo Deng, means “bouncy pork (弹跳猪)”. It is a good name for her fun and lively nature. Moo Deng’s keeper, Mr Nundee, started posting videos of her on social media when she was very young. These videos made Moo Deng famous. People all over the world enjoy watching videos of her running around, playing with her mother, and trying to bite (咬) Mr Nundee in a funny way. Now Moo Deng has millions of fans. Many people share her pictures and videos online. Some companies even use her pictures to make jokes or sell things like makeup and cakes. Her fame (名气) brings many visitors to the zoo. Thousands of people come every day to see her. The zoo made shirts, T-shirts, and pants. These clothes all had pictures of Moo Deng on them and were sold out very quickly. The zoo plans to use the money to help look after more endangered (濒危的) animals. The zoo hopes that more people will learn about these animals and want to protect them in the future. Pygmy hippos are in great danger. Only about 2,500 pygmy hippos live in the wild. They live in the forests in West Africa. Because people cut down trees to make farms and roads, many forests are disappearing. Some people also hunt pygmy hippos for food. This makes it difficult for pygmy hippos to stay safe. The zoo hopes Moo Deng’s fame will help people understand why they should protect these animals and their forest homes. At the zoo, Moo Deng faces some problems. Some visitors throw water or other things at her. They want her to move or play more. To protect her, the zoo now limits how many people can see her and how long they can stay. The zoo is also setting up a webcam (网络摄像头), so people can watch her online anytime—24 hours a day. With this, her fans can watch her playful life, and she stays safe. 34. Why do people like Moo Deng? __________________________________ 35. What does the zoo plan to do with the money from selling clothes? __________________________________ 36.

(二)阅读下列短文，根据短文内容，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选择最佳选项。 B It was a very sunny day. Molly was picking apples with her dad on the farm. She was careful to pick the big and sweet apples only because she wanted to make the best apple sauce (酱) and win first place in her town’s Best Apple Sauce Competition. She wanted everything to be perfect. “Molly, I am coming!” said Sam, Molly’s little brother, with a small bag in his hand. “Go and pick apples over there.” Molly said coldly, pointing to an old apple tree with small, sour (酸的) apples. She did not want any mistakes with her apple sauce. Sam happily walked away to pick the small apples. Soon he showed Molly his bag and said excitedly, “I have got so many!” Molly did not care. She hoped Sam would stay out of the way so she could rush home and take the perfect apple sauce. As soon as they got home, Molly washed the beautiful apples. Dad helped her cut them and put them into the big pot on the stove. As the apples softened, the kitchen began to smell so sweet. Molly did not care. She hoped Sam would stay out of the way, so she could rush home and make the perfect apple sauce. Suddenly, Sam put his small, sour apples into the pot before Molly could stop him. “No!” Molly cried in anger, trying to pull out Sam’s apples. But it was too late. “It’s OK,” Dad said. “Maybe it won’t be so bad.” But Molly wasn’t so sure. Finally, all the apples turned into apple sauce. Molly refused (拒绝) to try the sauce at first. Dad held a spoon to Molly’s mouth, and she tasted just a little. “Wow!” her eyes lit up. “This tastes amazing!” Dad smiled. “See? Things may not go as planned. Sometimes mistakes can turn out to be good surprises.” Molly nodded with a shy smile. She hugged Sam and said, “We will win first place together this year.” 24. What kind of apples did Molly pick? A. Big but sour. B. Big and sweet. C. Small but sweet. D. Small and sour. 25. Molly refused to taste the apple sauce at first because A. it was too hot for her B. her dad did not help her C. she thought it would be bad D. Tom had tasted it already 26. What lesson could Molly learn from this experience? A. The value of teamwork is important. B. Perfect things often bring us good luck. C. Sometimes wonderful things are unplanned. D. New ideas usually come from careful planning. C Do you like eating vegetables? Almost everybody knows that eating vegetables is good for us. But why do some people like them while others don’t? A new study has found that other people’s likes and dislikes could be a reason. According to the research, people who eat vegetables but show a clear dislike for them can influence others. People may make facial expressions when eating. How does it affect (影响) a person watching them? A team of scientists in the UK did a study. They asked more than 200 young women to watch videos of other adults eating broccoli (西兰花). The people in the videos had different expressions while eating. They would smile, seem neutral (neither happy nor sad), or look disgusted (厌恶的). The study found that when people in the videos looked disgusted while eating broccoli, people watching them began to like broccoli less. The opposite was not true, however. When someone had a smile while eating broccoli, people watching them did not like broccoli more. By watching others, humans learn which behaviors (行为) will be good for them. Scientists believe that people might avoid food that looks terrible. In this way, people can protect themselves from eating something bad or dangerous. The research focused only on adults, but the team believed that the results could also work for children. This means, if children see their parents not enjoying certain foods, including vegetables, they might not want to eat them either. Helping children to try more vegetables is meaningful. “If children are learning about vegetables at school it’s important to encourage this interest,” says Jones. Parents can listen to their children tell what they have learned and read the handouts they bring home from school. Parents and children can also read books together. Younger children can enjoy reading stories about vegetables with parents. Older children may enjoy searching through cookbooks with parents to find new dinner ideas to cook vegetables in a tasty way. How do the behaviors of adults influence their children’s choices of food? The team hopes to understand more about it. This could help find ways to encourage children to eat healthier food. 27. According to Paragraph 2, what is the result of the study? A. People may cook the food others like. B. Children dislike eating certain vegetables. C. People may not choose the food others dislike. D Young women are easily affected by other people. 28. What will the team probably do next? A. They will study the safety of children’s food. B. They will study the skills to produce healthy food. C. They will study the influences of parents’ behaviors. D. They will study the ways to understand children well. 29. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage? A. Videos Affect Choices of Food B. Studies on Vegetables Help a Lot C. Expressions Cause Possible Dangers D. Opinions on Vegetables Influence Others D People experience a flow state when they deeply pay attention to an activity that is challenging (挑战) enough to match their skills. Getting into a flow state helps people learn and further develop their skills while also increasing their enjoyment of those skills. In the 1960s, psychologist Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi noticed that many artists fell into this single-minded state while doing their creative work. His research on the topic showed that people can experience flow during different situations, including games like chess, sports like surfing or rock climbing, professional activities like performing surgery (进行手术), or creative activities like writing or painting. Time seems to pass more quickly than usual when people are in this state. He used the term “flow state” to describe this experience because many of the people he interviewed about it said the experience was like being “in flow”. The state of flow can be brought about by any experience, whether work or play, he explained, “It is the full participation of flow, rather than happiness, that makes for excellence in life”. Flow is also valuable for learning and developing skills. He noted the value of increasing challenges, and they should be just a little outside one’s skill set. This encourages the person to stay in the flow state while also helping them to learn new skills. Many people are interested in achieving flow because it can help improve performance and increase happiness. This can be different for different people. While one person may enter a flow state while gardening, another may do so while drawing or running a marathon. The key is to find an activity that the person is passionate (热情的) about and finds enjoyable. In addition, the activity must be challenging enough to need people to raise their skill levels just beyond their abilities. High challenges and high skills will result in deep involvement (参与) in the activity and create the desired flow state. However, the balance between skill level and challenge must be optimal to achieve flow. If the challenge is too high, it can lead to anxiety (焦虑); if the challenge is too low, it can lead to boredom. Today, it can be hard to ensure that one’s environment is good for flow. If noise keeps appearing, it won’t lead to a flow state. You should turn off mobile phones if you want to achieve flow. 30. What can we learn about flow state from the passage? A. People are passionate and noisy when they are in the state of flow. B Time seems to pass more slowly than usual when people experience flow. C. People may experience flow when they keep their minds deeply on something. D. Flow state can help people protect their environment and then achieve their goals. 31. What does the third paragraph mainly tell us? A. The history of the research. B. The benefits of a flow state. C. The new challenges of a flow state. D The difficulties of learning new skills. 32. The word “optimal” in Paragraph 5 is closest in meaning to ________. A. just right B. just new C. quite common D. quite opposite 33. The writer probably agrees that ________. A. anxiety can help people get into a flow state B. people will feel bored when the challenge is too high C. people can get into a flow state in all kinds of environments D. both high challenges and skills are necessary for a flow state 第二部分 本部分共5题，共20分。根据题目要求，完成相应任务。 四、阅读表达(第34-36题每题2分，第37题4分，共10分)阅读短文，根据短文内容回答问题。 Have you ever heard of pygmy hippos? Moo Deng is a baby pygmy hippo. She was born in July at the Khao Kheow Open Zoo in Thailand. People like her because she is playful and full of life. Her name, Moo Deng, means “bouncy pork (弹跳猪)”. It is a good name for her fun and lively nature. Moo Deng’s keeper, Mr Nundee, started posting videos of her on social media when she was very young. These videos made Moo Deng famous. People all over the world enjoy watching videos of her running around, playing with her mother, and trying to bite (咬) Mr Nundee in a funny way. Now Moo Deng has millions of fans. Many people share her pictures and videos online. Some companies even use her pictures to make jokes or sell things like makeup and cakes. Her fame (名气) brings many visitors to the zoo. Thousands of people come every day to see her. The zoo made shirts, T-shirts, and pants. These clothes all had pictures of Moo Deng on them and were sold out very quickly. The zoo plans to use the money to help look after more endangered (濒危的) animals. The zoo hopes that more people will learn about these animals and want to protect them in the future. Pygmy hippos are in great danger. Only about 2,500 pygmy hippos live in the wild. They live in the forests in West Africa. Because people cut down trees to make farms and roads, many forests are disappearing. Some people also hunt pygmy hippos for food. This makes it difficult for pygmy hippos to stay safe. The zoo hopes Moo Deng’s fame will help people understand why they should protect these animals and their forest homes. At the zoo, Moo Deng faces some problems. Some visitors throw water or other things at her. They want her to move or play more. To protect her, the zoo now limits how many people can see her and how long they can stay. The zoo is also setting up a webcam (网络摄像头), so people can watch her online anytime—24 hours a day. With this, her fans can watch her playful life, and she stays safe. 34. Why do people like Moo Deng? __________________________________ 35. What does the zoo plan to do with the money from selling clothes? __________________________________ 36. How many pygmy hippos live in the wild? __________________________________ 37. Is it important to protect pygmy hippos? What do you think are the good ways?
