We have picked new affordable places in Brooklyn, New York for $150 a room a night or less. NU Hotel There are 93 minimalist rooms at NU Hotel, each decorated individually. Free breakfast and on-site fitness centre are among its pleasantness. But it’s the location that really sets this hotel apart from its competitors. All corners of Brooklyn are within easy reach. Hungry? Walk down to Gus’s Chop House at Union Street, where every dish is delicious. Arlo Williamsburg Hotel Searching for a room with a view? Well, look no further. Many of the 126 rooms at this hotel have floor-to-ceiling windows looking out across Manhattan. There’s also a vast rooftop pool — you’ll have a hard time finding a better spot from which to survey the skyline. To explore Brooklyn, free-to-use bicycles are available on request. The Box House Hotel The 147-room Box House Hotel makes an ideal base from which to explore Brooklyn’s Greenpoint. There’s a homely feel to the accommodation here, and the decorations are anything but stuffy. This popular residential area has no shortage of food and drink options. Plus, you’re only a 10 minute walk up to the Grand Central Station. The Rockaway Hotel This beach-side property has 53 rooms. The relaxed rooftop restaurant and bar has views of both the distant Manhattan skyline and out to the Atlantic. Relax by the pool in the spa, or head to the beach where summer sun, sand and surf await you. For $4 the Jamaica Bay ferry takes you direct to Brooklyn and then into Manhattan. 21. Which hotel has the largest number of rooms? A. NU Hotel. B. The Box House Hotel. C. Arlo Williamsburg Hotel. D. The Rockaway Hotel. 22. What is the advantage of NU Hotel? A It serves tasty foods. B. It has free fitness coaching. C. It is conveniently located. D. It is decorated luxuriously. 23. What can visitors do in The Rockaway Hotel and Arlo Williamsburg Hotel? A. Train for cycling. B. Bath in the sunshine. C. Dine in the rooftop restaurants. D. Enjoy views out over Manhattan. B To Karanth, everyone in every part of the world is born with a fundamental connection to nature. Growing up in Karnataka, she began accompanying her father into the wild at just two years old. But in her hometown, kids grew up with a negative perspective (看法) on wildlife. Elephants destroyed crops and sometimes people were badly injured or killed. Karanth discovered kids wouldn’t appreciate the fact that it’s the best place to witness extraordinary animals. In 2017, a conversation with her friend Gabby shifted her mindset towards education. Within half a year, Karanth and Gabby had the first version of “Wild Shaale” on their hands. A program designed for students who come into frequent contact with wildlife, Wild Shaale aims to develop a genuine understanding of wildlife and wild spaces and move beyond wildlife tolerance to concepts of conservation (保护) and environmental issues. The conservation education program fills a gap in environmental learning. While it is fortunate that a basic environmental education is supported by local government, Karanth believes the challenge lies in the quality of the curriculum and whether it’s delivered effectively and consistently. “You have to visualize (想象) what these schools look like. They may not have electricity—forget having computers, internet, iPads, or anything. ” Encouraging the students to find commonalities between themselves and the animals is the first step to changing perceptions (看法) and hopefully, behaviors. “It comes down to the same things: we need food; we need water; we need space. Then they start to understand why situations of conflict arise,” Karanth says. “But then how do you convince them not to get angry, not to act in a way that leads to harm? That’s something we’re trying to work on. It’s not easy.” 24. What problem might Karanth’s hometown have faced? A. Human-wildlife conflict. B. Loss of wildlife habitats. C. Overpopulation of elephants. D. Disregard for wildlife balance. 25. Why did Karanth launch the program Wild Shaale? A. To help students identify animals. B. To fill a gap in local education. C. To change how students perceive wildlife. D. To publicize wildlife diversity. 26. What does paragraph 3 mainly talk about? A. The support for the plan. B. The barrier to the program. C. The curriculum arrangement. D. The schools’ conditions. 27. What is Karanth trying to achieve in the program? A. A change in humans’ attitudes and behavior. B. A breakthrough in environmental studies. C. Appropriate ways to end local conflicts. D. Approaches to changing animals’ behavior. C Fashion designers have a big say in what’s considered beautiful. They pick who’s in their shows and ads, shaping what’s celebrated as beauty. But this power also means responsibility — it can be used to leave people out or lift them up. When I was young, fashion was my world. I pored over various fashion magazines at my local bookstore, desiring to be tall, thin, and have long, shiny hair to fit the ideal. I wanted to be like those models, so I stopped eating. It was a tough time; my eating disorder consumed me. It took years to break free from its control, allowing me to focus on my true passions. For so long, the fashion industry has worked hard to set an ideal of beauty that celebrates thin, young, white, and able-bodied models as the ideal. It’s impossible not to be exposed to images of models that have been photoshopped to where there’s not a single spot in sight. This idea is everywhere, and it hurts people. Shockingly, around 91% of women are unhappy with their appearance. It’s sad that teens grow up in a society where they deny themselves. There’s progress — models and musicians promote body positivity. However, the pressure to meet unrealistic standards remains. Changing these standards involves bravely celebrating diverse beauty. True inclusivity goes beyond appearances. It requires diverse decision-makers, photographers, and casting directors cooperating. Young designers often overlook this crucial aspect. Hiring plus-size or transgender photographers, diverse casting directors, or makeup artists who understand the importance of accommodating to various skin tones, is vital for an overall approach. We aimed to redefine the “bikini body” standards. However, the goal isn’t for the consumer’s body to change but for clothes to accommodate all sizes. We need more fashion for everyone, no matter their size or where they shop. It’s our responsibility as designers to challenge this narrow beauty definition. My hope is for future teens to escape the pressures I faced, developing a fashion industry celebrating diverse identities. 28. What does the underlined phrase “pored over” in paragraph 2 probably mean? A. Classified carefully. B. Read attentively. C. Compared thoroughly. D. Recommended sincerely. 29. What is the impact of the initial beauty ideals set by the fashion industry? A. Causing self-denial. B. Generating individuality. C. Focusing on true passions. D. Contributing to self-confidence. 30. What can be inferred about true inclusivity? A. It encourages personal effort. B. It satisfies traditional standards. C. It focuses on physical appearances. D. It calls for diversity and cooperation. 31. Which of the following will the author probably agree with? A. Customers will change their body shapes. B. Future teens will redefine fashion standards. C. Fashion should celebrate everyone’s uniqueness. D. “Bikini body” standards should be strengthened. D In a clinical trial with 80 adults, a team of researchers found that sleep extension reduced energy intake and resulted in a negative energy balance in real-life settings among adults with overweight who habitually reduced their sleep duration (持续时间). The findings appear in the journal JAMA Internal Medicine. Obesity is a major public health concern. Much evidence suggests that sleeping less than 7 hours per night on a regular basis is associated with adverse health results. Particularly, insufficient sleep duration has been increasingly recognized as an important factor for obesity. However, it remains unknown whether extending sleep duration can be an effective strategy for preventing obesity. The clinical trial involved 80 adults aged 21 to 40 years with a body mass index (BMI) between 25.0 and 29.9, and habitual sleep duration of less than 6.5 hours per night. The study was conducted from November 1, 2014 to October 30, 2020. The participants were able to increase their sleep duration by an average of 1.2 hours per night after a personalized sleep counseling (咨询) session. Overall, participants who increased their sleep duration were able to reduce their calorie intake by an average of 270 kcal per day — which would translate to roughly 12 kg of weight loss over three years if the effects were maintained over a long term. Ultimately, the researchers hope to examine the underlying (潜在的) mechanisms that may explain these results, and believe their work should encourage new, larger studies on weight control to determine if extending sleep can support weight-loss programs and help prevent or reverse obesity. “In our earlier work, we understood that sleep is important for appetite regulation,” Dr. Tasali said. “Now we’ve shown that in real life, without making any other lifestyle changes, you can extend your sleep and eat fewer calories. This could really help people trying to lose weight.” 32. What’s the new finding of the research? A. Sleep extension can lead to weight problems. B Extending sleep duration helps reduce caloric intake. C. Controlling energy intake is the key to losing weight. D. Overweight adults often decrease their sleep duration. 33. What’s the probable meaning of the underlined word “adverse” in paragraph 2? A. Harmful. B. Unique. C. Lasting. D. Apparent. 34. According to the text, the subject of the study ________. A. usually slept 6.5 hours per night B. were 80 adults of the similar age group C got advice on sleep tailored to themselves D. were particularly chosen from a certain place 35. What do researchers think of the study? A. Its results are hard to explain clearly. B. It lays a foundation for further studies. C. It’s unreliable with many factors ignored. D. It has solved all the puzzles of researchers. 第二节 (共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。 It’s not so long ago that contactless card payments were exciting and new, but the technology is already old-hat. The new, better way to pay for things in shops? By using your phone to make a contactless payment. Because traditionally, when you have paid with a card tap (轻敲) or using a chip and pin machine, ultimately the shop you are buying from will be noting down all of your card details. ____36____ And this could be a problem — it means that if the shop is hacked (侵入) or plays fast and loose with its data, you could find your card number exposed to the world. However, when you tap to pay with your device, it generates a unique ID number for that deal and sends that instead. So you can pay for your goods and the shop can get your money. ____37____ That is to say, phone payments are smarter. ____38____ If a pickpocket steals your card they can immediately use up the money. But if they get your phone, when the phone goes to pay it will typically perform a biometric check-it will ask for a finger-print or use the camera to look at your face, to check that you are who you say you are. ____39____ Because of this added security, the limit (限额) is typically higher than for contactless cards. In the UK, it’s around £ 100 for most retailers-though some shops including most supermarkets let you spend much more with just a tap of the phone. Want to give it a try? To actually set things up, go to your Wallet app and follow the instructions. ____40____ Then it will automatically recognise the numbers and connect with your bank. Usually you receive a text message with a special code on it. And then, well, you’re done. When you pay, hold your phone over the payment machine, and pay for your goods! A. It helps to build the client list. B. The setup process varies with banks. C. No one needs to share any sensitive data. D. It’s also more effective against the threat of thefts. E. And phone payments are increasingly convenient too. F. Typically this starts by scanning your card with your phone. G. Therefore it knows which bank account to take the money from. 第三部分 语言运用 (共两节，满分30分) 第一节 完形填空 (共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分) 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项 (A、B、C和D) 中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 The stage lights dimmed, and I took a quick look from behind the heavy black curtains into the ____41____.

The performance was undertaken only by the most ____45____ and determined students. It was a difficult process that required much commitment. For more than six months, I spent two to three hours every day ____46____ these dances. Many times, I ____47____ myself to my physical and mental breaking point, but still I would not stop. I could not give up. There was always so much more to do and so much more to ____48____. I discovered a lot about myself in those tiring hours.

Though she was small and thin, she loved helping with housework, especially feeding the horses in their big barn (畜棚). One side of the barn housed the horse stalls (马厩), while the other side was piled with hay bales (干草捆) for feeding. One afternoon, Callie went into the barn to feed the horses. As she walked towards the tall stacks of hay, she suddenly stopped. A tiny, weak sound came through the dusty air. Meow... meow...  Her heart jumped. A kitten must be trapped in the hay! Breathing hard, she ran back to find Ben and her father. “Dad! Ben! Come quick! A kitten is stuck in the hay!” she called urgently. Ben sighed, putting down his tools. Her father looked doubtful. “Probably just the wind, Callie,” he said gently. But they followed her to the barn. They stood quietly near the hay stacks, listening. The barn was silent. “Hear anything?” Ben asked. Their father shook his head. “Nothing, sweetheart. Maybe it was just a mouse. Don’t worry about it.” Disappointed, Callie watched them leave. After dinner, Callie slipped back to the barn, determined. She stood still, listening attentively. And there it was again! Meow... meow... Weaker now, but clear. She raced back to the house. Her father was watching TV. “Dad, please!” she pleaded (恳求). “I heard it again! It is a kitten! Please, just come check one more time?” He looked unwilling but saw the real worry in her eyes. “Alright, alright, one last look.” He returned a few minutes later. “Callie, I listened hard. All I heard was an owl outside. No kitten. Try not to worry.” He gave her a tired smile. “Thanks for checking, Dad.” Callie whispered, though she still felt uneasy. 注意： 1．续写词数应为150左右； 2．请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 That night, Callie woke up suddenly. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ “I have no choice but to get help!” Callie thought to herself. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $第一节听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的ABC3个选项中选出最佳选项，并标在试卷的相应位置。听完每段对话后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对话仅读一遍。现在你有5秒钟的时间阅读第一小题的有关内容。I'm here to pick up jane.

We have picked new affordable places in Brooklyn, New York for $150 a room a night or less. NU Hotel There are 93 minimalist rooms at NU Hotel, each decorated individually. Free breakfast and on-site fitness centre are among its pleasantness. But it’s the location that really sets this hotel apart from its competitors. All corners of Brooklyn are within easy reach. Hungry? Walk down to Gus’s Chop House at Union Street, where every dish is delicious. Arlo Williamsburg Hotel Searching for a room with a view? Well, look no further. Many of the 126 rooms at this hotel have floor-to-ceiling windows looking out across Manhattan. There’s also a vast rooftop pool — you’ll have a hard time finding a better spot from which to survey the skyline. To explore Brooklyn, free-to-use bicycles are available on request. The Box House Hotel The 147-room Box House Hotel makes an ideal base from which to explore Brooklyn’s Greenpoint. There’s a homely feel to the accommodation here, and the decorations are anything but stuffy. This popular residential area has no shortage of food and drink options. Plus, you’re only a 10 minute walk up to the Grand Central Station. The Rockaway Hotel This beach-side property has 53 rooms. The relaxed rooftop restaurant and bar has views of both the distant Manhattan skyline and out to the Atlantic. Relax by the pool in the spa, or head to the beach where summer sun, sand and surf await you. For $4 the Jamaica Bay ferry takes you direct to Brooklyn and then into Manhattan. 21.

D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇应用文。文章主要介绍了纽约布鲁克林四个价格实惠的新酒店。 【21题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章中对各酒店房间数量的描述以及The Box House Hotel标题下的“The 147-room Box House Hotel makes an ideal base from which to explore Brooklyn’s Greenpoint.(拥有147间客房的Box House Hotel是探索布鲁克林绿点区的理想基地)”可知，Box House Hotel有 147 间房，是所有酒店中房间最多的。故选B。 【22题详解】 细节理解题。根据NU Hotel标题下的“But it’s the location that really sets this hotel apart from its competitors. All corners of Brooklyn are within easy reach. Hungry? Walk down to Gus’s Chop House at Union Street, where every dish is delicious.(但真正让这家酒店与众不同的是它的位置。布鲁克林的各个角落都近在咫尺。饿了？步行至联合街的Gus’s Chop House，那里的每一道菜都十分美味)”可知，该酒店的地理位置便利是其优势。故选C。 23题详解】 细节理解题。根据Arlo Williamsburg Hotel标题下的“Many of the 126 rooms at this hotel have floor-to-ceiling windows looking out across Manhattan.(这家酒店的126间客房中，有许多都有落地窗，可以俯瞰曼哈顿)”以及The Rockaway Hotel标题下的“The relaxed rooftop restaurant and bar has views of both the distant Manhattan skyline and out to the Atlantic.(这家轻松的屋顶餐厅和酒吧可以欣赏到遥远的曼哈顿天际线和大西洋的景色)”可知，这两家酒店能让游客享受到曼哈顿的景色。故选D。 B To Karanth, everyone in every part of the world is born with a fundamental connection to nature. Growing up in Karnataka, she began accompanying her father into the wild at just two years old. But in her hometown, kids grew up with a negative perspective (看法) on wildlife. Elephants destroyed crops and sometimes people were badly injured or killed. Karanth discovered kids wouldn’t appreciate the fact that it’s the best place to witness extraordinary animals. In 2017, a conversation with her friend Gabby shifted her mindset towards education. Within half a year, Karanth and Gabby had the first version of “Wild Shaale” on their hands. A program designed for students who come into frequent contact with wildlife, Wild Shaale aims to develop a genuine understanding of wildlife and wild spaces and move beyond wildlife tolerance to concepts of conservation (保护) and environmental issues. The conservation education program fills a gap in environmental learning. While it is fortunate that a basic environmental education is supported by local government, Karanth believes the challenge lies in the quality of the curriculum and whether it’s delivered effectively and consistently. “You have to visualize (想象) what these schools look like. They may not have electricity—forget having computers, internet, iPads, or anything. ” Encouraging the students to find commonalities between themselves and the animals is the first step to changing perceptions (看法) and hopefully, behaviors. “It comes down to the same things: we need food; we need water; we need space. Then they start to understand why situations of conflict arise,” Karanth says. “But then how do you convince them not to get angry, not to act in a way that leads to harm? That’s something we’re trying to work on. It’s not easy.” 24. What problem might Karanth’s hometown have faced? A. Human-wildlife conflict. B. Loss of wildlife habitats. C. Overpopulation of elephants. D. Disregard for wildlife balance. 25. Why did Karanth launch the program Wild Shaale? A. To help students identify animals. B. To fill a gap in local education. C. To change how students perceive wildlife. D. To publicize wildlife diversity. 26. What does paragraph 3 mainly talk about? A. The support for the plan. B. The barrier to the program. C. The curriculum arrangement. D. The schools’ conditions. 27. What is Karanth trying to achieve in the program? A. A change in humans’ attitudes and behavior. B. A breakthrough in environmental studies. C. Appropriate ways to end local conflicts. D. Approaches to changing animals’ behavior. 【答案】24. A 25. C 26. B 27. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了卡兰斯通过建立Wild Shaale项目来改变学生对野生动物的看法。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“But in her hometown, kids grew up with a negative perspective on wildlife. Elephants destroyed crops and sometimes people were badly injured or killed. Karanth discovered kids wouldn’t appreciate the fact that it’s the best place to witness extraordinary animals. (但在她的家乡，孩子们从小就对野生动物持消极态度。大象毁坏了庄稼，有时人们严重受伤或死亡。卡兰斯发现，孩子们不会欣赏这样一个事实：这里是观看非凡动物的最佳地点) ”可知，卡兰斯的家乡面临的问题是人类与野生动物的冲突。故选A。 【25题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“A program designed for students who come into frequent contact with wildlife, Wild Shaale aims to develop a genuine understanding of wildlife and wild spaces and move beyond wildlife tolerance to concepts of conservation and environmental issues. The conservation education program fills a gap in environmental learning. (该项目专为经常接触野生动物的学生设计，旨在培养对野生动物和野生空间的真正理解，并超越野生动物的耐受性，了解保护和环境问题的概念。保育教育计划填补了环境学习的空白)”可知，Karanth启动Wild Shaale项目是为了改变学生对野生动物的看法。故选C。 【26题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第三段“While it is fortunate that a basic environmental education is supported by local government, Karanth believes the challenge lies in the quality of the curriculum and whether it’s delivered effectively and consistently. “You have to visualize what these schools look like. They may not have electricity—forget having computers, internet, iPads, or anything.” (虽然幸运的是，基础环境教育得到了当地政府的支持，但Karanth认为，挑战在于课程的质量，以及课程是否有效和持续。“你必须想象这些学校是什么样子。他们可能没有电—更别提有电脑、互联网、ipad或任何东西了。”)”可知，第三段主要讲了项目开展所面临的挑战如课程质量，课程的效果以及持续性的障碍等。故选B。 【27题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Encouraging the students to find commonalities between themselves and the animals is the first step to changing perceptions and hopefully, behaviors. (鼓励学生发现自己和动物之间的共同点是改变观念和行为的第一步)”可知，卡兰斯想在这个项目中实现人类态度和行为的转变。故选A。 C Fashion designers have a big say in what’s considered beautiful. They pick who’s in their shows and ads, shaping what’s celebrated as beauty. But this power also means responsibility — it can be used to leave people out or lift them up. When I was young, fashion was my world. I pored over various fashion magazines at my local bookstore, desiring to be tall, thin, and have long, shiny hair to fit the ideal. I wanted to be like those models, so I stopped eating. It was a tough time; my eating disorder consumed me. It took years to break free from its control, allowing me to focus on my true passions. For so long, the fashion industry has worked hard to set an ideal of beauty that celebrates thin, young, white, and able-bodied models as the ideal. It’s impossible not to be exposed to images of models that have been photoshopped to where there’s not a single spot in sight. This idea is everywhere, and it hurts people. Shockingly, around 91% of women are unhappy with their appearance. It’s sad that teens grow up in a society where they deny themselves. There’s progress — models and musicians promote body positivity. However, the pressure to meet unrealistic standards remains. Changing these standards involves bravely celebrating diverse beauty. True inclusivity goes beyond appearances. It requires diverse decision-makers, photographers, and casting directors cooperating. Young designers often overlook this crucial aspect. Hiring plus-size or transgender photographers, diverse casting directors, or makeup artists who understand the importance of accommodating to various skin tones, is vital for an overall approach. We aimed to redefine the “bikini body” standards. However, the goal isn’t for the consumer’s body to change but for clothes to accommodate all sizes. We need more fashion for everyone, no matter their size or where they shop. It’s our responsibility as designers to challenge this narrow beauty definition. My hope is for future teens to escape the pressures I faced, developing a fashion industry celebrating diverse identities. 28. What does the underlined phrase “pored over” in paragraph 2 probably mean? A. Classified carefully. B. Read attentively. C. Compared thoroughly. D. Recommended sincerely. 29. What is the impact of the initial beauty ideals set by the fashion industry? A. Causing self-denial. B. Generating individuality. C. Focusing on true passions. D. Contributing to self-confidence. 30. What can be inferred about true inclusivity? A. It encourages personal effort. B. It satisfies traditional standards. C. It focuses on physical appearances. D. It calls for diversity and cooperation. 31. Which of the following will the author probably agree with? A. Customers will change their body shapes. B. Future teens will redefine fashion standards. C. Fashion should celebrate everyone’s uniqueness. D. “Bikini body” standards should be strengthened. 【答案】28. B 29. A 30. D 31. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章通过对时尚标准的讨论，表达了人们应该打破传统观念，建立多样性的时尚标准的观点。 【28题详解】 词义猜测题。根据上一句“When I was young, fashion was my world.”（当我年轻的时候，时尚就是我的世界。）和划线词所在句“I pored over various fashion magazines at my local bookstore,”（我在当地的书店里pored over各种时尚杂志，）可知，作者对时尚非常着迷，所以在书店应该是仔细阅读了各类时尚杂志，了解关于时尚的信息，“pored over”应该表示“仔细阅读”。故选B。 【29题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“This idea is everywhere, and it hurts people. Shockingly, around 91% of women are unhappy with their appearance. It’s sad that teens grow up in a society where they deny themselves.”（这种想法无处不在，它伤害了人们。令人震惊的是，约91%的女性对自己的外表不满意。可悲的是，青少年成长在一个他们否定自己的社会中。）可知，时尚界设立的美的标准致使多数女性不满意自己的容貌，从而否定自己。故选 A。 【30题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“True inclusivity goes beyond appearances. It requires diverse decision-makers, photographers, and casting directors cooperating.”（真正的包容超越表象。这需要不同的决策者、摄影师和选角导演的合作。）可知，真正的包容是要求有多样性和合作的，它呼吁不同时尚行业的从业者们进行合作。故选 D。 【31题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“We need more fashion for everyone, no matter their size or where they shop.”（我们需要为每个人提供更多的时尚，无论他们的身材或他们在哪里购物。）和“My hope is for future teens to escape the pressures I faced, developing a fashion industry celebrating diverse identities.”（我希望未来的青少年能够摆脱我所面临的压力，发展一个崇尚多元化身份的时尚产业。）可知，作者有可能会赞同：时尚界应该崇尚个人的独特性。故选 C。 D In a clinical trial with 80 adults, a team of researchers found that sleep extension reduced energy intake and resulted in a negative energy balance in real-life settings among adults with overweight who habitually reduced their sleep duration (持续时间). The findings appear in the journal JAMA Internal Medicine. Obesity is a major public health concern. Much evidence suggests that sleeping less than 7 hours per night on a regular basis is associated with adverse health results. Particularly, insufficient sleep duration has been increasingly recognized as an important factor for obesity. However, it remains unknown whether extending sleep duration can be an effective strategy for preventing obesity. The clinical trial involved 80 adults aged 21 to 40 years with a body mass index (BMI) between 25.0 and 29.9, and habitual sleep duration of less than 6.5 hours per night. The study was conducted from November 1, 2014 to October 30, 2020. The participants were able to increase their sleep duration by an average of 1.2 hours per night after a personalized sleep counseling (咨询) session. Overall, participants who increased their sleep duration were able to reduce their calorie intake by an average of 270 kcal per day — which would translate to roughly 12 kg of weight loss over three years if the effects were maintained over a long term. Ultimately, the researchers hope to examine the underlying (潜在的) mechanisms that may explain these results, and believe their work should encourage new, larger studies on weight control to determine if extending sleep can support weight-loss programs and help prevent or reverse obesity. “In our earlier work, we understood that sleep is important for appetite regulation,” Dr. Tasali said. “Now we’ve shown that in real life, without making any other lifestyle changes, you can extend your sleep and eat fewer calories. This could really help people trying to lose weight.” 32. What’s the new finding of the research? A. Sleep extension can lead to weight problems. B. Extending sleep duration helps reduce caloric intake. C. Controlling energy intake is the key to losing weight. D. Overweight adults often decrease their sleep duration. 33. What’s the probable meaning of the underlined word “adverse” in paragraph 2? A. Harmful. B. Unique. C. Lasting. D. Apparent. 34. According to the text, the subject of the study ________. A. usually slept 6.5 hours per night B. were 80 adults of the similar age group C. got advice on sleep tailored to themselves D. were particularly chosen from a certain place 35. What do researchers think of the study? A. Its results are hard to explain clearly. B. It lays a foundation for further studies. C. It’s unreliable with many factors ignored. D. It has solved all the puzzles of researchers. 【答案】32. B 33. A 34. C 35. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文，文章主要介绍了一项研究结果，在现实生活中，睡眠延长会减少能量摄入，致使习惯性缩短睡眠时间的超重成年人出现负能量平衡，睡眠时间不足已日益被认为是肥胖的一个重要因素。 【32题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“In a clinical trial with 80 adults, a team of researchers found that sleep extension reduced energy intake and resulted in a negative energy balance in real-life settings among adults with overweight who habitually reduced their sleep duration (持续时间). (在一项针对80名成年人的临床试验中，一组研究人员发现，在现实生活中，睡眠延长会减少能量摄入，致使习惯性缩短睡眠时间的超重成年人出现负能量平衡。)”可知，这项研究发现，延长睡眠时间有助于减少热量摄入。故选B。 【33题详解】 词句猜测题。根据下文“Particularly, insufficient sleep duration has been increasingly recognized as an important factor for obesity. (特别是，睡眠时间不足已日益被认为是肥胖的一个重要因素。)”可知，睡眠不足对健康有害，故画线词所在句意为“大量证据表明，经常每晚睡眠不足7小时与不良健康结果有关”，由此可知，adverse意为“有害的”。故选A。 【34题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“The participants were able to increase their sleep duration by an average of 1.2 hours per night after a personalized sleep counseling (咨询) session. (经过个性化的睡眠咨询后，参与者每晚的睡眠时间平均增加了1.2小时。)”可知，研究对象得到了适合自己的睡眠建议。故选C。 【35题详解】 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“Ultimately, the researchers hope to examine the underlying (潜在的) mechanisms that may explain these results, and believe their work should encourage new, larger studies on weight control to determine if extending sleep can support weight-loss programs and help prevent or reverse obesity. (最终，研究人员希望研究出解释这些结果的潜在机制，并相信他们的工作应该鼓励新的、更大规模的体重控制研究，以确定延长睡眠是否可以支持减肥计划，并有助于预防或逆转肥胖。)”可知，研究人员认为这项研究为进一步的研究奠定了基础。故选B。 第二节 (共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。 It’s not so long ago that contactless card payments were exciting and new, but the technology is already old-hat. The new, better way to pay for things in shops? By using your phone to make a contactless payment. Because traditionally, when you have paid with a card tap (轻敲) or using a chip and pin machine, ultimately the shop you are buying from will be noting down all of your card details. ____36____ And this could be a problem — it means that if the shop is hacked (侵入) or plays fast and loose with its data, you could find your card number exposed to the world. However, when you tap to pay with your device, it generates a unique ID number for that deal and sends that instead. So you can pay for your goods and the shop can get your money. ____37____ That is to say, phone payments are smarter. ____38____ If a pickpocket steals your card they can immediately use up the money. But if they get your phone, when the phone goes to pay it will typically perform a biometric check-it will ask for a finger-print or use the camera to look at your face, to check that you are who you say you are. ____39____ Because of this added security, the limit (限额) is typically higher than for contactless cards. In the UK, it’s around £ 100 for most retailers-though some shops including most supermarkets let you spend much more with just a tap of the phone. Want to give it a try? To actually set things up, go to your Wallet app and follow the instructions. ____40____ Then it will automatically recognise the numbers and connect with your bank. Usually you receive a text message with a special code on it. And then, well, you’re done. When you pay, hold your phone over the payment machine, and pay for your goods! A. It helps to build the client list. B. The setup process varies with banks. C. No one needs to share any sensitive data. D. It’s also more effective against the threat of thefts. E. And phone payments are increasingly convenient too. F. Typically this starts by scanning your card with your phone. G. Therefore, it knows which bank account to take the money from. 【答案】36. G 37. C 38. D 39. E 40. F 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文，文章介绍了非接触式手机支付的好处以及设置方式。 【36题详解】 上文“Because traditionally, when you have paid with a card tap (轻敲) or using a chip and pin machine, ultimately the shop you are buying from will be noting down all of your card details.(因为传统上，当你用刷卡或刷卡机付款时，最终你购买的商店会记下你所有的信用卡细节)”描述原因，空处应是接着说结果，G项“因此，它知道从哪个银行账户取钱”符合语境，故选G。 37题详解】 根据上文“However, when you tap to pay with your device, it generates a unique ID number for that deal and sends that instead. So you can pay for your goods and the shop can get your money.(然而，当你用你的设备点击支付时，它会为这笔交易生成一个唯一的ID号并发送。所以你可以支付你的商品，商店可以得到你的钱)”可知，支付时形成的ID一次性的也是是唯一的，因此个人信息不会或数据不会被分享出去。C项“没有人需要分享任何敏感数据”符合语境，故选C。 【38题详解】 根据本段内容“But if they get your phone, when the phone goes to pay it will typically perform a biometric check — it will ask for a finger-print or use the camera to look at your face, to check that you are who you say you are.(但如果他们拿到了你的手机，当手机开始支付时，它通常会进行生物识别检查——它会要求你提供指纹或使用摄像头查看你的脸，以检查你是否就是你所说的那个人)”可知，本段是说手机支付能防止盗刷钱财，D项“它还能更有效地抵御盗窃威胁”符合语境，故选D。 【39题详解】 根据空后“Because of this added security, the limit (限额) is typically higher than for contactless cards. In the UK, it’s around £ 100 for most retailers — though some shops including most supermarkets let you spend much more with just a tap of the phone. (由于这种增加的安全性，限额通常高于非接触式卡。在英国，对大多数零售商来说，这大约是100英镑——尽管一些商店，包括大多数超市，你只需点击一下手机就可以花更多的钱)”可知，本段是说手机支付的便捷，E项“手机支付也越来越方便”符合语境，故选E。 【40题详解】 根据上文“To actually set things up, go to your Wallet app and follow the instructions.(要真正设置，请进入钱包应用程序并按照说明进行设置)”及下文“Then it will automatically recognise the numbers and connect with your bank.(然后，它会自动识别这些号码，并与你的银行联系)”可知，空处是描述设置手机支付的第一步，F项“这通常是从用手机扫描信用卡开始的”符合语境，故选F。 第三部分 语言运用 (共两节，满分30分) 第一节 完形填空 (共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分) 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项 (A、B、C和D) 中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 The stage lights dimmed, and I took a quick look from behind the heavy black curtains into the ____41____.

I would recommend the English Song Competition for the following reasons. First, singing English songs is a fun way to improve pronunciation and vocabulary naturally. Many students enjoy music, so participation would be high. Second, this activity allows creative performances solo, duets, or even group acts, making it more engaging than a traditional contest. Lastly, we can invite judges to give feedback on both language skills and stage presence, adding educational value. I’m sure this event will be both fun and educational for everyone. Looking forward to hearing your thoughts. Yours, Li Hua Possible version 2: Dear Mr. Smith, Thank you for your thoughtful proposals for the English Week. I would like to express my preference for the English Word Spelling Contest. I believe this contest would be highly beneficial. It would strongly motivate students to expand their vocabulary and pay closer attention to spelling accuracy, which is a fundamental skill for English learning. Unlike a song competition, a spelling contest is more inclusive and accessible to a wider range of students, including those who might be shy about performing. It would create an atmosphere of focused and academic engagement. We would greatly appreciate your guidance in organizing it. Yours, Li Hua 【解析】 【导语】本篇书面表达是一篇应用文。要求考生给外教Mr. Smith写一封邮件，选择一个方案并说明理由。 【详解】以第一篇为例 1.词汇积累 提出：propose→put forward 方法：way→approach 提高：improve→enhance 有吸引力的：engaging→appealing 2.句式拓展 简单句变复合句 原句：First, singing English songs is a fun way to improve pronunciation and vocabulary naturally. 拓展句：First, singing English songs is a fun way that can improve pronunciation and vocabulary naturally. 【点睛】[高分句型1] Second, this activity allows creative performances solo, duets, or even group acts, making it more engaging than a traditional contest.（运用了现在分词作状语） [高分句型2] I’m sure this event will be both fun and educational for everyone.（运用了省略了连接词that引导的宾语从句） 第二节 (读后续写，满分25分) 67. 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。 A determined 10-year-old girl Callie lived with her parents and older brother, Ben, on a quiet farm. Though she was small and thin, she loved helping with housework, especially feeding the horses in their big barn (畜棚). One side of the barn housed the horse stalls (马厩), while the other side was piled with hay bales (干草捆) for feeding. One afternoon, Callie went into the barn to feed the horses. As she walked towards the tall stacks of hay, she suddenly stopped. A tiny, weak sound came through the dusty air. Meow... meow...  Her heart jumped. A kitten must be trapped in the hay! Breathing hard, she ran back to find Ben and her father. “Dad! Ben! Come quick! A kitten is stuck in the hay!” she called urgently. Ben sighed, putting down his tools. Her father looked doubtful. “Probably just the wind, Callie,” he said gently. But they followed her to the barn. They stood quietly near the hay stacks, listening. The barn was silent. “Hear anything?” Ben asked. Their father shook his head. “Nothing, sweetheart. Maybe it was just a mouse. Don’t worry about it.” Disappointed, Callie watched them leave. After dinner, Callie slipped back to the barn, determined. She stood still, listening attentively. And there it was again! Meow... meow... Weaker now, but clear. She raced back to the house. Her father was watching TV. “Dad, please!” she pleaded (恳求). “I heard it again! It is a kitten! Please, just come check one more time?” He looked unwilling but saw the real worry in her eyes. “Alright, alright, one last look.” He returned a few minutes later. “Callie, I listened hard. All I heard was an owl outside. No kitten. Try not to worry.” He gave her a tired smile. “Thanks for checking, Dad.” Callie whispered, though she still felt uneasy. 注意： 1．续写词数应为150左右； 2．请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 That night, Callie woke up suddenly. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ “I have no choice but to get help!” Callie thought to herself. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】That night, Callie woke up suddenly. The weak cries filled her mind. She couldn’t rest. Quietly, she put on her coat, took a flashlight and slipped out. Inside the barn, near the hay stacks, Callie held her breath, listening with full attention. Then, it came: Meow... meow... Her flashlight beam swept across the bales. There! Near the bottom of a tall stack, she spotted a tiny movement-a small patch of gray fur barely visible between two enormous bales. She rushed over and pushed the bales again, but they wouldn’t move. “I have no choice but to get help!” Callie thought to herself. She raced back home and quickly awoke Ben and their father. Seeing Callie’s worried face and absolute certainty, they both hurried with her back to the barn. Working together, Ben and their father carefully moved the heavy hay bales which Callie pointed at. Eventually, a narrow passage was revealed. There was a tiny gray kitten, its eyes wide with fright. Trembling and exhausted, it let out another pitiful meow. Carefully, Callie’s father reached in and gently held the little creature out. Callie’s heart swelled with relief and joy as she looked at the rescued kitten, safe and warm in her father’s large, gentle hands. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，文章讲述10岁女孩卡莉在农场畜棚听到干草堆里有小猫叫声，两次恳求父亲和哥哥查看遭疑，他们分别认为是风声、老鼠或猫头鹰，卡莉虽失望但仍坚信有小猫被困，内心不安。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段内容“那天晚上，卡莉突然醒来。”可以预测续写这段主要内容：卡莉夜探谷仓，用手电筒发现干草堆底部有小灰猫，推干草捆却推不动。 ②由第二段首句内容“卡莉心想：‘我别无选择，只能找人帮忙！’”可以预测续写这段主要内容：卡莉叫醒父兄帮忙，三人挪开干草捆救出受惊小猫，卡莉见状欣慰喜悦。 2.续写线索：卡莉夜探谷仓——发现小灰猫——寻求父兄帮忙——救出受惊小猫——感到欣慰喜悦 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①.休息：rest/take a rest ②.看见：spot/see ③.颤抖：tremble/ shake 情绪类 ①.担心的：worried/concerned ②.快乐：joy/happiness/delight 【点睛】[高分句型1].
