A. In possession of B. In spite of C. In view of D. In honor of 【答案】C 【解析】 【详解】考查介词短语辨析。句意为：鉴于您的付款已逾期，根据合同规定，您需要支付罚款。A. In possession of占有，持有；B. In spite of虽然，尽管……；C. In view of由于，鉴于；D.

I couldn’t help________ when I was________ the best prize. A. to smile; awarding B. smiling; awarding C. to smile; awarded D. smiling; awarded 【答案】D 【解析】 【详解】考查非谓语动词和动词语态。句意：当我被授予最佳奖项时，我忍不住笑了。第一空为固定搭配can’t help doing sth.，意为“忍不住做某事”，所以此处使用动名词形式smiling作宾语；第二空的动词award与逻辑主语I之间是被动关系，应使用过去分词awarded与空前的was构成一般过去时态的被动语态。故选D项。 7. ________ in the traffic jam, I usually set out at 7:00 in the morning to catch the train which ________ at 8:00 tomorrow morning, so you should go to the station by 7:30 at the latest.

Avoiding to be caught; leave 【答案】C 【解析】 【详解】考查非谓语动词和时态。句意：为了避免堵车，我通常会在早上七点出发去赶明天早上八点出发的火车，所以你最晚要在七点半到达车站。本句谓语为set out，第一空为非谓语动词，作目的状语，用avoid“避免”的不定式to avoid，句首单词，首字母大写。avoid后应接动名词作宾语，且主语I与catch之间为被动关系，be caught in“陷于”，用动名词的被动语态being caught，作To avoid的宾语，第一空应填To avoid being caught。“which _____ at 8:00 tomorrow morning”为修饰the train的定语从句，表示的是按照时刻表发生的动作，时态应用一般现在时，且主语which代替先行词the train，所以第二空应填第三人称单数leaves。故选C。 8. With the Spring Festival ________, though ________ abroad for many years, John still observes the Chinese traditions. A. to approach; living B. approached; living C approaching; having lived D. approaching; lived 【答案】C 【解析】 【详解】考查现在分词。句意：随着春节的临近，尽管约翰已经在国外生活了多年，但他仍然遵循着中国的传统习俗。动词approach表示“接近，临近”，与the Spring Festival之间为主动关系，表示“正在临近”，故应用现在分词approaching，作宾补；动词live表示“生活，居住”，作状语，与主语John之间为主动关系，故应用现在分词形式，由for many years可知，约翰已经在国外生活了多年，故应用现在分词的完成式，即having lived。故选C。 9. ________he couldn’t understand was ________ fewer and fewer young people showed interest in traditional folk art. A. It; that B. It; what C. What; that D. What; it 【答案】C 【解析】 【详解】考查主语从句和表语从句。句意：他无法理解的是，为什么越来越少的年轻人对传统民间艺术感兴趣。第一空为连接词引导主语从句，且在从句中作“understand”的宾语，指代“事物”，应用what；第二空为连词引导表语从句，从句不缺成分，且句意完整，所以第二空需用连接词that，无实义，只起连接作用。故选C项。 10. ________ with his slippers on when he heard the terrible noise. A. Rushed Tom out B. Out rushed Tom C. Out Tom rushed D. Out did Tom rush 【答案】B 【解析】 【详解】考查倒装句。句意：听到可怕的噪音时，汤姆穿着拖鞋冲了出去。当表示方位的副词out位于句首且主语是名词时，句子要用完全倒装结构，即“副词+谓语动词+主语”，Out rushed Tom符合该语序。故选B项。 11. Excited and nervous, I ________ watching the final moments of the breathtaking football match last night. A. jumped in with both feet B. threw the baby out with the bathwater C. had a frog in my throat D. was on the edge of my seat 【答案】D 【解析】 【详解】考查动词短语辨析。句意：昨晚我既兴奋又紧张，观看那场精彩绝伦的足球比赛的最后时刻时，坐立不安。 A. jumped in with both feet全心投入或仓促行事；B. threw the baby out with the bathwater不分好坏地全盘抛弃；C. had a frog in my throat嗓子发紧说不出话；D. was on the edge of my seat紧张不安、全神贯注地关注某事，通常用于描述观看比赛或电影时的高度紧张状态。根据句意，空处指在观看比赛时的高度紧张的状态。故选D。 12. I shall never forget the days ________ I spent in Beijing University, ________ has a great effect on my life. A. that; which B. when; which C. when; that D. that; that 【答案】A 【解析】 【详解】考查定语从句。句意：我永远不会忘记在北京大学度过的那些日子，这对我的人生产生了巨大的影响。空处①引导限制性定语从句，修饰先行词days，在从句中作宾语，故用关系代词that；空处②引导非限制性定语从句，在从句中作主语，故应用关系代词which。故选A。 13. She ________ her homework when the power was off and that was ________ she was so angry. A. is doing; because B. was doing; because C. was doing; why D. is doing; why 【答案】C 【解析】 【详解】考查时态和表语从句。句意：停电时她正在做作业，那是为什么她太生气的原因。根据“when the power was off”可知，描述过去某个时间点正在进行的动作，要用过去进行时；that was why...表示“那就是……的原因”，强调结果；that was because...表示“那是因为……”，强调原因。根据语境，停电时她正在做作业，所以她生气，这里强调的是结果。故选C。 14. She had difficulty ________ the exercise ________ we had thought was easy to do. A. to finish; but B. finishing; and C. finishing; which D. finished; that 【答案】C 【解析】 【详解】考查动名词和定语从句。句意：她做这道练习题有困难，而我们之前以为这道题很容易做。have difficulty (in) doing sth. 是固定搭配，意为“做某事有困难”，其中“in”可省略，因此第一个空需填动名词形式 finishing。第二个空中，the exercise为先行词，在定语从句中作主语，关系代词为which。we had thought在句子中是插入语。故选C。 15. If he ________ my advice and had his homework ________, he wouldn’t have failed the exam. A. followed; to finish B. had followed; finished C. had followed; been finished D. followed; finished 【答案】B 【解析】 【详解】考查虚拟语气和非谓语动词。句意：如果他听了我的建议，完成了作业，他就不会考试不及格了。这是一个虚拟条件句，根据“he wouldn’t have failed the exam”可知，这是对过去情况的虚拟。在对过去情况进行虚拟时，if引导的条件状语从句要用过去完成时，即“had+过去分词”的形式。第二空为“have sth. done”结构，意为“使某事被做”，homework与finish之间为被动关系，应用过去分词finished作宾语补足语。故选B。 三、阅读理解(共20小题;每小题2.5分，满分50分) A FREE TEEN ANXIETY Support Group For teens ages 14-17 Having conflicts with peers?

At the age of seventy-two, she had been well prepared for her death, but I was not. Of both French and Indian background, she had a gentle, soft touch. All her life, Mom was there for me; although now a grown woman, I still needed my senior parent for advice and comfort. We were the best of friends, and over the years, we shared, laughed and cried together. I often found myself wearing her red sweater, which had been Mom’s favourite, and it was faded and worn from years of use. To cope with my grief, I would imagine my mom wearing the red sweater and reaching out to comfort me. Her warm hands, worn and shrivelled (干枯) from age and work, had cared for a large family, and brought life to plants and flowers. Mom lost both her cultures when she married my father, a white man, and moved from her island to live on his. When she arrived in isolated and rural Cardigan at the age of eighteen, she began to learn English. Sadly, her knowledge of both French and her native Chinook began to fade away. One of my favourite memories are the native powwws (帕瓦仪式) we attended on Panmure Island. First Nations people from all over North America travelled there to participate in the powwows. It was an opportunity for Mom to mingle with the First Nations people, wear her native shirt, dance in the sacred circle and socialize. She loved going to those powwows and I remember her proudly telling an elder once, “I’m Indian, too.” Although she had moved into the white man’s world when she married, she never lost her Chinook heritage of strong native spirituality, deep respect for the land, and love for the outdoors-all of which she passed on to me and my eight brothers and sisters. Now, her image travels with me when I feel grief and pain. She always wears the red sweater and for an instant, our hands join. Death has not separated us. 19. Why did I keep Mom’s red sweater? A. It was a gift from my mom as my best friend. B. It held many memories and offered me comfort. C. It was Mom’s favourite despite its overuse. D. It witnessed my growth from a girl to a woman. 20. Why did Mom love to attend the native powwow? A. She felt isolated and wanted to make friends there. B. She lost her culture after she married my father. C. She was eager to be identified with her ancient roots. D. She was passionate about outdoor activities. 21. Which of the following best describes Mom? A. Quiet and considerate. B. Strict and determined. C. Talkative and humorous. D. Hardworking and caring. 22. Which of the following can be a suitable title for the text? A. Silenced Cultural Identity B. A Valuable Heritage C. The Red Sweater D. Journey to the Roots 【答案】19. B 20. C 21. D 22. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。作者讲述了自己在母亲去世后，通过母亲的红毛衣连接的点滴回忆表达了自己的悲伤以及对母亲的怀念。 【19题详解】 细节理解题。第三段第二句“To cope with my grief, I would imagine my mom wearing the red sweater and reaching out to comfort me.( 为了处理我的悲伤，我会想象妈妈穿着红色毛衣，伸出手来安慰我。)”明确指出作者看到毛衣，会想象着自己的妈妈穿着毛衣安慰自己，故这件毛衣是作者的情感象征，承载着对妈妈的回忆，能给作者一丝宽慰。故选B项。 【20题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段前五句“One of my favourite memories are the native powwws (帕瓦仪式) we attended on Panmure Island. First Nations people from all over North America travelled there to participate in the powwows. It was an opportunity for Mom to mingle with the First Nations people, wear her native shirt, dance in the sacred circle and socialize. She loved going to those powwows and I remember her proudly telling an elder once, “I’m Indian, too.” (我最喜欢的回忆之一是我们在潘穆雷岛参加的当地的帕瓦仪式。来自北美各地的原住民前往那里参加了该仪式。这对妈妈来说是一个与原住民交往的机会，穿上她的本土衬衫，在神圣的圈子里跳舞和社交。她喜欢去那些聚会，我记得她曾经自豪地告诉一位老人，“我也是印度人。”)”可知，作者的妈妈渴望认同自己的原住民根源，对自己的身份感到自豪。故选C项。 【21题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段最后一句“Her warm hands, worn and shrivelled (干枯) from age and work, had cared for a large family, and brought life to plants and flowers. (她温暖的双手因年龄和工作而磨损和枯萎，照顾了一个大家庭，给植物和花朵带来了生命。)”可知，母亲很是勤劳，总是在关心关爱家庭和自然。故选D项。 【22题详解】 主旨大意题。根据最后一段“Now, her image travels with me when I feel grief and pain. She always wears the red sweater and for an instant, our hands join. Death has not separated us. (现在，当我感到悲伤和痛苦时，她的形象会和我一起旅行。她总是穿那件红色毛衣，我们的手一下子就合在一起了。死亡并没有把我们分开。)”可知，本文讲述的是作者对妈妈的怀念和回忆，主要是基于妈妈留下的红毛衣，但这件毛衣不是一件普通的毛衣，而是作者无比珍视的遗产，是作者的精神寄托，作为标题，选项B的A Valuable Heritage“一件个珍贵的遗产”比选项C 的The Red Sweater “那件红毛衣”更能呈现出情感价值，更适合作本文标题。故选B项。 C The concept of “China chic”, or guochao, has become popular in recent years. According to relevant data, the search volume for the keyword “Guochao” increased by 392.66% year-on-year from January to July 2022. The Baidu 2021 Guochao Pride Search Big Data Report revealed that interest in guochao has skyrocketed over the past 10 years. Domestic products are now in fashion, and domestic consumption has increasingly become an important choice for the new generation of consumers. China chic integrates unique cultural elements with the latest trends across various industries. It not only meets younger consumers’ desire for personality and fashion but also helps revive traditional culture. The rise of China chic is a result of China’s rapid economic development and is driven by certain cultural motivations. Additionally, the continuous improvement of Chinese people’s consumption power is an important factor behind the rise of China chic. Most importantly, cultural confidence is the driving force behind the rise of China chic. Five thousand years of Chinese civilization have left behind a rich cultural heritage. In many ways, guochao is the perfect representative of the new wave of Chinese cultural pride. Originating in the fashion industry, this trend reflects Chinese consumers’ renewed interest in their cultural heritage. The guochao trend is strongest among young adults who have grown up in an increasingly powerful China and thus possess a strong sense of national pride. China’s national strength is growing, and its soft power is also on the rise. Even so, we still have a long way to go in promoting China chic. But as it has become a part of people’s lives, there is no doubt that even more diverse China chic products will emerge in the future to showcase Chinese charm. 23. What does the underlined word “skyrocketed” in the first paragraph mean? A. Risen sharply. B. Dropped obviously. C. Remained stable. D. Changed slightly. 24. Which best describes “China chic”? A. It aims mainly to promote Chinese exports. B. It mixes traditional culture with current trends. C. It attracts mostly middle-aged and older consumers. D. It draws major inspiration from Western fashion styles. 25. What is identified as the primary driver behind the rise of China chic? A. The expansion of China’s economy. B. The growth in people’s purchasing power. C. A renewed sense of cultural identity. D. The influence of social media on the youth. 26. What does the author imply about the future of China chic? A. It will soon lead global fashion. B. It will need more policy support. C. It will remain a small market. D. It will continue to develop and diversify. 【答案】23. A 24. B 25. C 26. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍国潮的流行、特点及发展动因与前景。 【23题详解】 词义猜测题。根据第一段中“According to relevant data, the search volume for the keyword “Guochao” increased by 392.66% year-on-year from January to July 2022. (根据相关数据显示，2022年1月至7月，“国潮”关键词的搜索量同比增长了392.66%)”可知，国潮关键词搜索量同比大幅增长，由此可推测划线词与选项A含义相近，意为“急剧上升”。故选A。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“China chic integrates unique cultural elements with the latest trends across various industries. (“国潮”将独特的文化元素与各行业的最新潮流相融合)”可知，国潮将独特文化元素与最新潮流融合。故选B。 【25题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“Most importantly, cultural confidence is the driving force behind the rise of China chic. (最重要的是，文化自信是国潮兴起的核心驱动力)”可知，国潮兴起的核心驱动力是文化自信，即“重新焕发的文化认同感”。故选C。 【26题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“But as it has become a part of people’s lives, there is no doubt that even more diverse China chic products will emerge in the future to showcase Chinese charm. (但随着它已逐渐融入人们的日常生活，毫无疑问，未来将涌现出更多样化的国潮产品，向世界展现独特的中国魅力)”可知，作者认为未来会出现更多元的国潮产品，即国潮将“继续发展并多元化”。故选D。 D From an airplane, cars moving slowly down the highway look like ants. But unlike cars, actual ants somehow manage to avoid stop-and-go traffic. Researchers are now studying these insects’ cooperative strategies to learn how to program self-driving cars that don’t jam up. The previous research by Katsuhiro Nishinari, a mathematical physicist at the University of Tokyo, had shown that foraging (觅食的) ants can maintain their flow even when it’s very crowded. So what’s their secret? In a recent study, researchers recorded Ochetellus ants on foraging paths and used traffic-engineering models to analyze their movement. They found that the ants don’t jam because they travel in groups of three to twenty that move at nearly constant rates while keeping good distances between one another — and they don’t speed up to pass others. Human drivers at rush hour are hardly likely to follow such rules. “We’re maximizing the interest of individuals, which is why at a given point you start to have a traffic jam,” says study co-author Nicola Pugno, who studies solid mechanics at the University of Trento in Italy. However, self-driving cars could have more cooperative programming if they one day become widespread. In one vision of this future, autonomous vehicles would share information with nearby cars to enhance traffic flow by prioritizing (优先考虑) constant speeds and time intervals or by not passing others on the road. This vehicle network would be similar to ants on a path, which use scent to coordinate behavior while interacting with one another. However, today’s drivers can learn at least one thing from ants to avoid causing a traffic jam: don’t tailgate. By leaving room between their car and the one ahead of them, drivers can prevent small slowdowns from turning into big traffic jams. Maintaining a steady speed rather than frequent speed-up and braking (刹车) can also help reduce the likelihood of traffic jams, making the journey smoother and safer for everyone on the road. 27. Why do ants never get caught in traffic jams? A. They are small and travel slowly. B. They have a special sense of direction. C. They always move in a similar foraging path. D. They keep a steady speed and a suitable distance. 28. How might self-driving cars reduce traffic jams? A. By adjusting routes in real time. B. By moving along the dedicated lanes. C. By sharing data with surrounding vehicles. D. By monitoring road conditions with sensors. 29. What does the underlined word “tailgate” in the last paragraph probably mean? A. Brake suddenly. B. Follow closely. C. Drive quickly. D. Turn sharply. 30. Which can be a suitable title for the text? A. Reasons for Modern Traffic Jams B. Methods to Manage Traffic Flow C. Ant-Inspired Solutions for Smoother Traffic D. Interaction-Based Traffic Systems on City Roads 【答案】27. D 28. C 29. B 30. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了蚂蚁的协作移动模式，提出其对自动驾驶汽车编程和人类驾驶习惯的借鉴意义，以优化交通流并减少堵塞。 【27题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“They found that the ants don’t jam because they travel in groups of three to twenty that move at nearly constant rates while keeping good distances between one another — and they don’t speed up to pass others. (研究发现，蚂蚁之所以不会发生堵塞，是因为它们通常以3到20只为一组进行移动，这些蚂蚁群体保持着近乎恒定的行进速度，彼此间保持适当间距，而且从不加速超过其他蚂蚁)”可知，蚂蚁永远不会陷入交通堵塞是因为它们保持近乎恒定的速度和良好的间距。故选D项。 【28题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“In one vision of this future, autonomous vehicles would share information with nearby cars to enhance traffic flow by prioritizing (优先考虑) constant speeds and time intervals or by not passing others on the road. (在未来的一种设想中，自动驾驶汽车将与附近的汽车共享信息，通过优先考虑恒定的速度和时间间隔，或者不超过路上的其他人，来提高交通流量)”可知，自动驾驶汽车可通过与附近车辆共享信息来减少交通堵塞。故选C项。 【29题详解】 词句猜测题。根据画线词的下文“By leaving room between their car and the one ahead of them, drivers can prevent small slowdowns from turning into big traffic jams. (通过在他们的车和前面的车之间留出空间，司机可以防止小的减速变成大的交通堵塞)”并结合划线词句可知，避免堵塞的方法是在车与前车之间留出空间，因此画线词应指“跟车过近”。故选B项。 【30题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第一段中“But unlike cars, actual ants somehow manage to avoid stop-and-go traffic. Researchers are now studying these insects’ cooperative strategies to learn how to program self-driving cars that don’t jam up. (但与汽车不同的是，蚂蚁却总能避免走走停停的交通状况。研究人员正在研究这些昆虫的协作策略，以学习如何为自动驾驶汽车编程，从而避免交通堵塞)”可知，文章以蚂蚁的协作行为为切入点，探讨其对缓解交通堵塞的启示，如自动驾驶编程和人类驾驶建议。因此，C项“以蚂蚁为灵感的交通顺畅解决方案”体现“蚂蚁”与“交通优化”的关联，最适合作为文章标题。故选C项。 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。 Knowing exactly how to comfort your friend and what to say isn’t always easy, and you might be feeling a little tongue-tied.

Avoid interrupting or offering immediate advice unless they specifically ask for it. Sometimes, all someone needs is a compassionate ear to listen to their worries, fears, or frustrations.(全神贯注地倾听，让你的朋友能够毫无保留地分享他们的经历。不要打断他们或立即给出建议，除非他们明确提出需要。有时候，人们所需要的仅仅是一双充满同情心的耳朵，来倾听他们所担忧、恐惧或沮丧的情绪。)”可知，此处强调给予朋友全神贯注倾听的重要性，且空处为主旨句。B项“Listening attentively is the key in providing comfort.(用心倾听是给予安慰的关键所在。)”强调倾听是安慰的关键，概括全段内容，而且选项中的Listening与空后的listen为高频词复现，选项中的Listening attentively与undivided attention为同义复现，符合上下文语境，故选B项。 【32题详解】 根据段首句“Empathy plays a vital role in comforting a friend.(同理心在安慰朋友时起着至关重要的作用。)”以及空前“Acknowledge their emotions by saying things like, “I can imagine this is really tough for you.” or(通过说诸如“我能理解这对你来说确实很艰难。”之类的话来表达对他们的情绪的认同。)”可知，此处指出我们要有同理心，即对于朋友的情绪我们要表达认同。F项“It sounds like you’ re feeling rather disappointed.(听起来你似乎感到相当失望。)”直接认可情绪，与or前的“I can imagine this is really tough for you.”(“我能理解这对你来说确实很难。”)为并列关系，通过换位思考和语言认可对方的情绪，是同理心的表现，符合上下文语境，故选F项。 【33题详解】 空前“Offering support is another critical aspect of comforting a friend. Remind them that difficult times are temporary and that they have your unwavering support throughout their journey.(提供支持是安慰朋友的另一个重要方面。提醒他们，困难只是暂时的，在他们的人生旅途中，你会毫不动摇地支持他们。)”指出给朋友提供支持的重要性。A项“Encourage them to seek any necessary help they may need.(鼓励他们去寻求他们可能需要的任何帮助。)”指出我们要鼓励朋友寻求帮助，对支持性行动进行了补充，符合上下文语境，故选A项。 【34题详解】 根据空前“Lastly, following up and checking in on your friend’s well-being is essential.(最后，定期关心并了解你朋友的近况是非常重要的。)”可知，本段的建议是要定期关心并了解朋友的近况，根据空后“ Send them a thoughtful message, plan activities together, or simply ask how they’ re doing. Let them know that your support is continuous and that you are there for them whenever they need someone to lean on.(给他们发一条贴心的短信，一起策划一些活动，或者只是问问他们的近况如何。让他们知道你的支持是持续不断的，而且无论何时他们需要依靠他人时，你都会在他们身边。)”可知，此处指出对于朋友的支持要是持续不断的，C项“Comforting someone should not be a one-time act but an ongoing process.(安慰他人不应只是一次性的行为，而应是一个持续的过程。)”指出安慰他人应是一个持续的过程，承接上文，引出下文，选项中的ongoing与空后的continuous为同义词复现，符合上下文语境，故选C项。 【35题详解】 根据空前“Remember, everyone responds to comfort differently.(要记住，每个人对舒适感的反应都是不同的。)”可知，此处的建议是要记住每个人对舒适感的反应都是不同的，那就意味着对于不同的人我们要有不同的态度，E项“Therefore, be open and flexible(灵活的)in your approach.(因此，在你的方法上要保持开放和灵活的态度。)”指出在方法上要保持开放和灵活的态度，与上文之间构成因果关系，符合上下文语境，故选E项。 四、完形填空(共15小题;每小题1分，满分15分) My husband’s career has led to our family relocating many times.

At the age of seventy-two, she had been well prepared for her death, but I was not. Of both French and Indian background, she had a gentle, soft touch. All her life, Mom was there for me; although now a grown woman, I still needed my senior parent for advice and comfort. We were the best of friends, and over the years, we shared, laughed and cried together. I often found myself wearing her red sweater, which had been Mom’s favourite, and it was faded and worn from years of use. To cope with my grief, I would imagine my mom wearing the red sweater and reaching out to comfort me. Her warm hands, worn and shrivelled (干枯) from age and work, had cared for a large family, and brought life to plants and flowers. Mom lost both her cultures when she married my father, a white man, and moved from her island to live on his. When she arrived in isolated and rural Cardigan at the age of eighteen, she began to learn English. Sadly, her knowledge of both French and her native Chinook began to fade away. One of my favourite memories are the native powwws (帕瓦仪式) we attended on Panmure Island. First Nations people from all over North America travelled there to participate in the powwows. It was an opportunity for Mom to mingle with the First Nations people, wear her native shirt, dance in the sacred circle and socialize. She loved going to those powwows and I remember her proudly telling an elder once, “I’m Indian, too.” Although she had moved into the white man’s world when she married, she never lost her Chinook heritage of strong native spirituality, deep respect for the land, and love for the outdoors-all of which she passed on to me and my eight brothers and sisters. Now, her image travels with me when I feel grief and pain. She always wears the red sweater and for an instant, our hands join. Death has not separated us. 19. Why did I keep Mom’s red sweater? A. It was a gift from my mom as my best friend. B. It held many memories and offered me comfort. C. It was Mom’s favourite despite its overuse. D. It witnessed my growth from a girl to a woman. 20. Why did Mom love to attend the native powwow? A. She felt isolated and wanted to make friends there. B. She lost her culture after she married my father. C. She was eager to be identified with her ancient roots. D. She was passionate about outdoor activities. 21. Which of the following best describes Mom? A. Quiet and considerate. B. Strict and determined. C. Talkative and humorous. D. Hardworking and caring. 22. Which of the following can be a suitable title for the text? A. Silenced Cultural Identity B. A Valuable Heritage C. The Red Sweater D. Journey to the Roots C The concept of “China chic”, or guochao, has become popular in recent years. According to relevant data, the search volume for the keyword “Guochao” increased by 392.66% year-on-year from January to July 2022. The Baidu 2021 Guochao Pride Search Big Data Report revealed that interest in guochao has skyrocketed over the past 10 years. Domestic products are now in fashion, and domestic consumption has increasingly become an important choice for the new generation of consumers. China chic integrates unique cultural elements with the latest trends across various industries. It not only meets younger consumers’ desire for personality and fashion but also helps revive traditional culture. The rise of China chic is a result of China’s rapid economic development and is driven by certain cultural motivations. Additionally, the continuous improvement of Chinese people’s consumption power is an important factor behind the rise of China chic. Most importantly, cultural confidence is the driving force behind the rise of China chic. Five thousand years of Chinese civilization have left behind a rich cultural heritage. In many ways, guochao is the perfect representative of the new wave of Chinese cultural pride. Originating in the fashion industry, this trend reflects Chinese consumers’ renewed interest in their cultural heritage. The guochao trend is strongest among young adults who have grown up in an increasingly powerful China and thus possess a strong sense of national pride. China’s national strength is growing, and its soft power is also on the rise. Even so, we still have a long way to go in promoting China chic. But as it has become a part of people’s lives, there is no doubt that even more diverse China chic products will emerge in the future to showcase Chinese charm. 23. What does the underlined word “skyrocketed” in the first paragraph mean? A. Risen sharply. B. Dropped obviously. C. Remained stable. D. Changed slightly. 24. Which best describes “China chic”? A. It aims mainly to promote Chinese exports. B. It mixes traditional culture with current trends. C. It attracts mostly middle-aged and older consumers. D. It draws major inspiration from Western fashion styles. 25. What is identified as the primary driver behind the rise of China chic? A. The expansion of China’s economy. B. The growth in people’s purchasing power. C. A renewed sense of cultural identity. D. The influence of social media on the youth. 26. What does the author imply about the future of China chic? A. It will soon lead global fashion. B. It will need more policy support. C. It will remain a small market. D. It will continue to develop and diversify. D From an airplane, cars moving slowly down the highway look like ants. But unlike cars, actual ants somehow manage to avoid stop-and-go traffic. Researchers are now studying these insects’ cooperative strategies to learn how to program self-driving cars that don’t jam up. The previous research by Katsuhiro Nishinari, a mathematical physicist at the University of Tokyo, had shown that foraging (觅食的) ants can maintain their flow even when it’s very crowded. So what’s their secret? In a recent study, researchers recorded Ochetellus ants on foraging paths and used traffic-engineering models to analyze their movement. They found that the ants don’t jam because they travel in groups of three to twenty that move at nearly constant rates while keeping good distances between one another — and they don’t speed up to pass others. Human drivers at rush hour are hardly likely to follow such rules. “We’re maximizing the interest of individuals, which is why at a given point you start to have a traffic jam,” says study co-author Nicola Pugno, who studies solid mechanics at the University of Trento in Italy. However, self-driving cars could have more cooperative programming if they one day become widespread. In one vision of this future, autonomous vehicles would share information with nearby cars to enhance traffic flow by prioritizing (优先考虑) constant speeds and time intervals or by not passing others on the road. This vehicle network would be similar to ants on a path, which use scent to coordinate behavior while interacting with one another. However, today’s drivers can learn at least one thing from ants to avoid causing a traffic jam: don’t tailgate. By leaving room between their car and the one ahead of them, drivers can prevent small slowdowns from turning into big traffic jams. Maintaining a steady speed rather than frequent speed-up and braking (刹车) can also help reduce the likelihood of traffic jams, making the journey smoother and safer for everyone on the road. 27. Why do ants never get caught in traffic jams? A. They are small and travel slowly. B. They have a special sense of direction. C. They always move in a similar foraging path. D. They keep a steady speed and a suitable distance. 28. How might self-driving cars reduce traffic jams? A. By adjusting routes in real time. B. By moving along the dedicated lanes. C. By sharing data with surrounding vehicles. D. By monitoring road conditions with sensors. 29. What does the underlined word “tailgate” in the last paragraph probably mean? A. Brake suddenly. B. Follow closely. C. Drive quickly. D. Turn sharply. 30. Which can be a suitable title for the text? A. Reasons for Modern Traffic Jams B. Methods to Manage Traffic Flow C. Ant-Inspired Solutions for Smoother Traffic D.
