Four Beautiful Beaches In Singapore
In Singapore, there are a range of special beaches where you can relax for a day. At these popular beaches, you’ll feel as if you’re in paradise (天堂) — like Bali. Here are four of the best beaches there.
Tanjong Beach
The white-sandy beach is man-made and it’s the perfect place to relax in the sun, read a book away from the crowds, or go for a swim in the ocean. Especially, the Tanjong Beach Club is a top nightlife spot for drinking cocktails (鸡尾酒) and enjoying water sports like surfing.
St. John’s Island Beach
You can enjoy a quiet beach on St. John’s Island. This pretty place has a beach that’s great for sunbathing, swimming in clear water, and having picnics away from the city. Visitors can also spot unique marine life (海洋生物), go fishing, and even rent cabins or bungalows to stay on the island. Make sure to bring everything you need — there are no shops on the island.
Coney Island
Coney Island beach is the perfect place to relax away from the crowds. This hidden destination offers a couple of sandy spots to relax — whether you’re walking or cycling around Coney Island. It is definitely one of the best beaches to visit alone for a therapeutic (治愈的) experience.
Pulau Hantu
This island has a quiet beach far from busy tourist spots. The island consists of two small islands that join at low tide. There’s soft white sand and clear blue-green water here, teeming with (充满) colorful corals and marine life. People often camp overnight on the island, as it is only accessible by boat.

Bridger, 6-year-old boy, and his 4-year-old sister were playing in the backyard of a friend’s home when the accident happened. A dangerous dog had gotten loose and suddenly ran in the children’s direction crazily. The dog first charged at the young girl and she cried out to her big brother for help by any means necessary.
Bridger courageously risked his own life by jumping in between the dog and his sister offering himself as a shield (盾牌). He selflessly took over the main force of the attack by coming to her rescue. The dog’s attention was shifted to Bridger and the dog jumped on him and madly started attacking. The wounded boy was still able to grab his sister’s hand and quickly bring her to safety.
Later, Bridger had to bear a two-hour surgery requiring 90 stitches (缝针) to his face following the attack. He suffered severe wounds on this mouth, left cheek and on his eye. The courageous young boy is recovering at home. When asked what motivated him to jump into action, he simply said, “If someone had to die, I thought it should be me.”
The young boy’s incredible act of bravery did not go unnoticed as he touched the hearts of millions who read his aunt’s Instagram story. He also received words of praise and got well wishes from an “Avengers” movie hero. Captain America himself, actor Chris Evans sent Bridger a special private message telling the young hero, “What you did was so brave and so selfless, your sister is so lucky to have you as a big brother.”
Bridger was clearly in great spirits sitting side by side with his little sister, wearing his Captain America uniform while listening to the well-deserved praise from his own hero.

After a long and busy day at school or work, all we want to do is return to a clean and comfortable home. Smart technology can turn any home into a nicer place to live. You can now turn your thermostat (恒温器) up, lock your doors and play your music with a simple voice command.
In fact, smart homes have actually been around for some time. Scottish company Pico Electronics invented a communication protocol (协议) called X10 back in 1975. With radio waves, this protocol allowed users to communicate with various devices in their homes, such as lights and alarms, according to AVSystemsMag, a magazine dedicated to the AV and automation industry.
Of course, 4G-and now 5G-wireless technology makes smart homes much more sophisticated (复杂的) and powerful than X10 devices. Perhaps the most widespread smart home technology is the voice-activated assistant. Google Home and Amazon’s Alexa allow users to interact with nearly any device in their homes simply by speaking a few words. This is especially convenient for children and people with physical disabilities, as they can accomplish tasks that would normally be too complicated or difficult, according to How To Geek magazine.
Common household appliances can become “smart” as well. For example, a smart trash bin can monitor the things you’ve thrown away and place an online order for replacement items, while smart refrigerators can create dinner recipes based on the ingredients that were kept inside, according to How stuff works website. 5G-powered sensors and cameras can monitor almost every aspect of household life.
The appeal of all of this convenience has paid off for realtors, who are seeing sales of smart homes skyrocket. You can ask Dave Garland, a realtor with Second Century Ventures.
“There’s a new narrative when it comes to what ‘home’ means,” he said in an NPR report. “It means a personalized environment where technology responds to your every need.”
But it’s not just about convenience. Smart homes are also good for the environment. By monitoring your energy use and automatically turning off lights and other devices that you are not using, smart homes can lower how much electricity you use overall. Using less energy means that we use fewer resources such as coal and gas, which is ultimately good for the environment-and our wallets. Well, not everyone is excited about smart home.
8. Where is this passage most probably from?
A. A book report. B. A science magazine. C. A research paper. D. A guidebook.
9. What is Paragraph 3 mainly about?
A. Household devices designed for the disabled. B. All types of smart household appliances.
C. Further development of smart home technology. D. Difference between X10 and 5G network.
10. How does smart home technology influence our life?
A. Smart trash bins help us find cheap but nice things online.
B. Smart fridges can create proper recipes and cook tasty food.
C. Smart homes will help us save energy and reduce pollution.
D. Smart homes make us stay at home instead of working out.
11. The author may introduce the ______ of smart homes in the next paragraph.
A. application B. development C. regulation D. drawback
D
The next generation of scientists and inventors is already finding approaches to address society’s problems. A group of high school students and their instructor report a solution to the problem of lead (铅) pollution in drinking water — an inexpensive faucet (水龙头) attachment that removes this poisonous metal. Unlike conventional filters currently on the market, theirs includes a container made of eco-friendly plastic and indicates when it’s “used up” by turning the tap water yellow.
“A few years ago, I saw a video of a woman in Michigan turn on her tap water, and it came out brown.” says Rebecca Bushway, the project’s principal investigator. “That made me think — because there’s really no safe level of lead in drinking water, wouldn’t it be nice to have a water filter that could tell you your water is polluted, well before it turns brown because of lead?”
Bushway, as a science teacher, wondered aloud to her chemistry class if there was a little filter that they could make from inexpensive components to easily remove lead. The students were excited about the idea, and they started thinking about the project in 2020.
The students discussed designs for an attachment to screw (用螺丝固定) a filter onto a sink’s faucet. Then in the spring semester of 2021, they 3D printed the attachment and a 3-inch-tall filter housing, using eco-friendly plastic. They filled the containers with some chemical powder. Next, the students added a tiny spectrophotometer (分光光度计) with a single-wavelength LED to the bottom of the filter container. They installed an indicator light that turns on as soon as the detector identifies the yellow color of the lead iodide (碘化铅).
The team’s goal is to make and sell their filters for less than $1 each. Because the housings use eco-friendly plastic, the cost could trend a little higher, but the material would help reduce the overall environmental impact of the filter.
The process of developing the filter has been very fulfilling. “Ultimately, this experience has shown students they can make a difference to somebody, and that there are problems they can fix with science,” said Bushway.
12. What shows that the filter is running out according to the text?
A The change of the water’s color. B. The change of the filter housing’s color.
C. The times of the filter being used. D. The flash of the indicator light.
13 What inspired Bushway to remove lead in the water?
A. Her personal experience in Michigan. B. The unsafe water used by a woman.
C. A lack of safe drinking water. D. The experiments carried out in her class.
14. What can be inferred from paragraphs 4 and 5?
A. Chemical powder reacts with the lead in the water.
B. A detector is fixed to identify the lead iodide.
C. The students have developed eco-friendly plastic.
D. The filter has an advantage over others in price.
15. What is the author’s purpose in writing this passage?
A. To advertise a product to remove lead to readers.
B. To highlight the hardships the inventors encounter.
C. To praise the young for shouldering responsibilities.
D. To stress the importance of environmental protection.

“Good morning, Miss Bolz.” A friendly man in his early twenties greeted me as he placed my breakfast on the table next to my bed. I struggled to sit up, but after being hospitalized several days for severe breathing difficulties, I was still very weak.
Now, I was in a nursing home, and I hated staying here. The two elderly women who were sharing my room kept me up every night with low, painful sounds and screams. My nerves were shot, and I felt really tired from not sleeping.
Fortunately, there was one positive part about my stay at the nursing home: The food was good. Since I needed to be on medications that had a side effect of stimulating my appetite, I was thankful to have three tasty meals each day.
“You gave me oatmeal (燕麦粥) again. Thanks for remembering that it’s my favorite breakfast!” I told the young man who had brought my breakfast. “Well, uh, thanks,” he replied, looking surprised. “Actually, we cook oatmeal for all the patients every morning, but nobody has ever told me before that they like it. Everyone on the kitchen staff works very hard to prepare the meals, so it’s nice to hear praise for a change. Usually, the patients are complaining about the food.”
While the young man delivered breakfasts to the two other women in the room, I wondered what I could do to encourage him and his coworkers. Reaching for a pen on my nightstand, I quickly wrote a nice note about the food on the back of the breakfast menu and waved it in the air. “Is that for me?” the man asked with a laugh. He read my note and smiled widely. Then he promised to show my comments to everyone in the kitchen before hurrying away to deliver more breakfasts.
注意:
1.续写词数应为150左右;

As I watched him walk down the hallway, an idea came to me.

【答案】1. D 2. B 3. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇应用文。文章主要介绍了新加坡四个美丽的海滩,包括它们的特点和活动。
【1题详解】
推理判断题。根据Pulau Hantu部分中“People often camp overnight on the island, as it is only accessible by boat. (人们经常在岛上露营过夜,因为只有乘船才能到达。)”可知,Pulau Hantu只能乘船到达,且人们经常在岛上露营过夜,所以一天之内很难返回。故选D项。
【2题详解】
细节理解题。根据Tanjong Beach部分中“The white-sandy beach is man-made and it’s the perfect place to relax in the sun, read a book away from the crowds, or go for a swim in the ocean. (白色的沙滩是人造的,是晒太阳、远离人群看书或在海里游泳的绝佳场所。)”;St. John’s Island Beach部分中“You can enjoy a quiet beach on St. John’s Island. (你可以在圣约翰岛享受宁静的海滩。)”;Coney Island部分中“Coney Island beach is the perfect place to relax away from the crowds. (科尼岛海滩是远离人群放松的绝佳场所。)”和Pulau Hantu部分中“This island has a quiet beach far from busy tourist spots. (这个岛有一个安静的海滩,远离热闹的旅游景点。)”可知,这四个海滩的共同之处是它们都提供了一个安静的氛围。故选B项。
【3题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“Enjoyed this? Check out The Best Island Getaways In and Around Singapore. (喜欢这个吗?看看新加坡及其周边最好的岛屿度假胜地。)”可知,文章最后提供了一个超链接,所以文章很可能来自一个网站。故选C项。

Bridger courageously risked his own life by jumping in between the dog and his sister offering himself as a shield (盾牌). He selflessly took over the main force of the attack by coming to her rescue. The dog’s attention was shifted to Bridger and the dog jumped on him and madly started attacking. The wounded boy was still able to grab his sister’s hand and quickly bring her to safety.
Later, Bridger had to bear a two-hour surgery requiring 90 stitches (缝针) to his face following the attack. He suffered severe wounds on this mouth, left cheek and on his eye. The courageous young boy is recovering at home. When asked what motivated him to jump into action, he simply said, “If someone had to die, I thought it should be me.”
The young boy’s incredible act of bravery did not go unnoticed as he touched the hearts of millions who read his aunt’s Instagram story. He also received words of praise and got well wishes from an “Avengers” movie hero. Captain America himself, actor Chris Evans sent Bridger a special private message telling the young hero, “What you did was so brave and so selfless, your sister is so lucky to have you as a big brother.”
Bridger was clearly in great spirits sitting side by side with his little sister, wearing his Captain America uniform while listening to the well-deserved praise from his own hero.

After a long and busy day at school or work, all we want to do is return to a clean and comfortable home. Smart technology can turn any home into a nicer place to live. You can now turn your thermostat (恒温器) up, lock your doors and play your music with a simple voice command.
In fact, smart homes have actually been around for some time. Scottish company Pico Electronics invented a communication protocol (协议) called X10 back in 1975. With radio waves, this protocol allowed users to communicate with various devices in their homes, such as lights and alarms, according to AVSystemsMag, a magazine dedicated to the AV and automation industry.
Of course, 4G-and now 5G-wireless technology makes smart homes much more sophisticated (复杂的) and powerful than X10 devices. Perhaps the most widespread smart home technology is the voice-activated assistant. Google Home and Amazon’s Alexa allow users to interact with nearly any device in their homes simply by speaking a few words. This is especially convenient for children and people with physical disabilities, as they can accomplish tasks that would normally be too complicated or difficult, according to How To Geek magazine.
Common household appliances can become “smart” as well. For example, a smart trash bin can monitor the things you’ve thrown away and place an online order for replacement items, while smart refrigerators can create dinner recipes based on the ingredients that were kept inside, according to How stuff works website. 5G-powered sensors and cameras can monitor almost every aspect of household life.
The appeal of all of this convenience has paid off for realtors, who are seeing sales of smart homes skyrocket. You can ask Dave Garland, a realtor with Second Century Ventures.
“There’s a new narrative when it comes to what ‘home’ means,” he said in an NPR report. “It means a personalized environment where technology responds to your every need.”
But it’s not just about convenience. Smart homes are also good for the environment. By monitoring your energy use and automatically turning off lights and other devices that you are not using, smart homes can lower how much electricity you use overall. Using less energy means that we use fewer resources such as coal and gas, which is ultimately good for the environment-and our wallets. Well, not everyone is excited about smart home.
8. Where is this passage most probably from?
A. A book report. B. A science magazine. C. A research paper. D. A guidebook.
9. What is Paragraph 3 mainly about?
A. Household devices designed for the disabled. B. All types of smart household appliances.
C. Further development of smart home technology. D. Difference between X10 and 5G network.
10. How does smart home technology influence our life?
A. Smart trash bins help us find cheap but nice things online.
B. Smart fridges can create proper recipes and cook tasty food.
C. Smart homes will help us save energy and reduce pollution.
D. Smart homes make us stay at home instead of working out.
11. The author may introduce the ______ of smart homes in the next paragraph.
A. application B. development C. regulation D. drawback
【答案】8. B 9. C 10. C 11. D

The next generation of scientists and inventors is already finding approaches to address society’s problems. A group of high school students and their instructor report a solution to the problem of lead (铅) pollution in drinking water — an inexpensive faucet (水龙头) attachment that removes this poisonous metal. Unlike conventional filters currently on the market, theirs includes a container made of eco-friendly plastic and indicates when it’s “used up” by turning the tap water yellow.
“A few years ago, I saw a video of a woman in Michigan turn on her tap water, and it came out brown.” says Rebecca Bushway, the project’s principal investigator. “That made me think — because there’s really no safe level of lead in drinking water, wouldn’t it be nice to have a water filter that could tell you your water is polluted, well before it turns brown because of lead?”
Bushway, as a science teacher, wondered aloud to her chemistry class if there was a little filter that they could make from inexpensive components to easily remove lead. The students were excited about the idea, and they started thinking about the project in 2020.
The students discussed designs for an attachment to screw (用螺丝固定) a filter onto a sink’s faucet. Then in the spring semester of 2021, they 3D printed the attachment and a 3-inch-tall filter housing, using eco-friendly plastic. They filled the containers with some chemical powder. Next, the students added a tiny spectrophotometer (分光光度计) with a single-wavelength LED to the bottom of the filter container. They installed an indicator light that turns on as soon as the detector identifies the yellow color of the lead iodide (碘化铅).
The team’s goal is to make and sell their filters for less than $1 each. Because the housings use eco-friendly plastic, the cost could trend a little higher, but the material would help reduce the overall environmental impact of the filter.
The process of developing the filter has been very fulfilling. “Ultimately, this experience has shown students they can make a difference to somebody, and that there are problems they can fix with science,” said Bushway.
12. What shows that the filter is running out according to the text?
A. The change of the water’s color. B. The change of the filter housing’s color.
C. The times of the filter being used. D. The flash of the indicator light.
13. What inspired Bushway to remove lead in the water?
A. Her personal experience in Michigan. B. The unsafe water used by a woman.
C. A lack of safe drinking water. D. The experiments carried out in her class.
14. What can be inferred from paragraphs 4 and 5?
A. Chemical powder reacts with the lead in the water.
B. A detector is fixed to identify the lead iodide.
C. The students have developed eco-friendly plastic.
D. The filter has an advantage over others in price.
15. What is the author’s purpose in writing this passage?
A. To advertise a product to remove lead to readers.
B. To highlight the hardships the inventors encounter.
C. To praise the young for shouldering responsibilities.
D. To stress the importance of environmental protection.

【答案】Dear Alex,
How have you been lately? I’m writing to share a moment that amazed me most in the military parade held in Beijing on September 3rd.
The scene that impressed me most was when the advanced military weapons rumbled across Tian’anmen Square. The morning sun flashed on their launch tubes, and the ground trembled as if the whole nation’s heart were beating with them.
Standing among the crowd, I suddenly realized how small I am as an individual, yet how large we can be when united. At that moment I understood that the parade was not simply a show of military force, but a salute to every ordinary person who once refused to surrender.
I’d love to hear what events have moved you recently. Write back when you have time.
Yours,
Li Hua

47. 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。
“Good morning, Miss Bolz.” A friendly man in his early twenties greeted me as he placed my breakfast on the table next to my bed. I struggled to sit up, but after being hospitalized several days for severe breathing difficulties, I was still very weak.
Now, I was in a nursing home, and I hated staying here. The two elderly women who were sharing my room kept me up every night with low, painful sounds and screams. My nerves were shot, and I felt really tired from not sleeping.
Fortunately, there was one positive part about my stay at the nursing home: The food was good. Since I needed to be on medications that had a side effect of stimulating my appetite, I was thankful to have three tasty meals each day.
“You gave me oatmeal (燕麦粥) again. Thanks for remembering that it’s my favorite breakfast!” I told the young man who had brought my breakfast. “Well, uh, thanks,” he replied, looking surprised. “Actually, we cook oatmeal for all the patients every morning, but nobody has ever told me before that they like it. Everyone on the kitchen staff works very hard to prepare the meals, so it’s nice to hear praise for a change. Usually, the patients are complaining about the food.”
While the young man delivered breakfasts to the two other women in the room, I wondered what I could do to encourage him and his coworkers. Reaching for a pen on my nightstand, I quickly wrote a nice note about the food on the back of the breakfast menu and waved it in the air. “Is that for me?” the man asked with a laugh. He read my note and smiled widely. Then he promised to show my comments to everyone in the kitchen before hurrying away to deliver more breakfasts.

___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】作答示例
As I watched him walk down the hallway, an idea came to me. I decided to write an encouraging note to the kitchen staff after every meal, and once I finished eating, I would lay it on my plate. Working on these notes, I soon got my mind off my illness and my noisy roommates. Words couldn’t describe the warmth I felt every time that young person told me about the joy on the staff’s faces whenever they received my notes. As I knew that my little effort was greatly appreciated, I felt that time flew like an arrow and my surroundings were no longer noisy.
Upon my departure, the man thanked me for my meal notes for all staff. His words made me realize how my little effort touched and encouraged everyone. Soon all the staff came in to say good-bye with a big thank-you note signed by every one of them and give me big hugs. Tears welling up in my eyes, I said sincerely, “Thank you so much for your hard work to make each meal nice.” I finally left with a strong resolution to express thankfulness whenever possible, having learned that it has the power to encourage others and light up even the hardest days.
【解析】
【导语】本文以人物为线索展开,文章讲述作者因严重呼吸困难住院后转至养老院,虽厌恶此处(室友吵闹致无法安睡),却庆幸食物美味。送早餐的年轻男子称燕麦粥是常规餐食,鲜少获好评。作者遂写便条称赞食物,男子十分开心,承诺将便条带给厨房同事。
