At the end of each conversation, a question will be asked about what was said, the conversations and the questions will be spoken only once. After you hear a conversation and the question about IT, read the four possible answers on your paper and decide which one is the best answer to the question you have heard. One, is this the emirate's airline checking? Yes, sir. please show me your ticket question. Where does the conversation probably take place? Too, it's very nice of you to invite me. I'm very glad . you could come. mr. Smith, will you take a seat at the head of the table? Question, what is the probable relationship between the two speakers? Three, I won the first prize in the national writing contest, and I got this camera as an award. It's a good camera. You can take IT when you travel. I had no idea you were a marvelous writer. Question, what do we learn from the conversation? For i've almost finished typing my homework paper. Tell me when it's ready. I'd like to . see IT question, what does the man want to do? Five, the university bookstore opens at nine in the morning. Oh, dear, I need a textbook for eight o'clock class today. What does . the woman mean?

I wish I could be one of those people, but my budget simply doesn't stretch that far. Question, what can we learn about the woman? Section b directions in section b, you will hear two passengers and one longer conversation. After reach passage or conversation, you will be asked several questions. The passages and the conversation will be read twice, but the questions will be spoken only once. When you hear a question, read the four possible answers on your paper and decide which one is the best answer to the question you've heard. Questions eleven through thirteen are based on the following passage. Are you afraid to raise your hand in class even when you know the answer? If you are, most people would say that you're shy. If you feel shy, you're not alone. Nine out of ten people are at a little shy. But however shy you are, scientific evidence seems to show that IT isn't your fault. You may have been born that way. How do psychologists measure shines? One way is by observation, they keep detailed records of people's actions, like how often these people speak to others, or how long IT takes someone to say hello to a stranger. Another way to measure shininess is to ask people questions. The test only takes about ten minutes. IT asks questions like, do you like going out a lot and do you have many friends? People must answer either yes or no. These questions can predict how people actually behave in social situations. Suppose the test tells you that someone is shy. Chances are good that the person will act shy. When scientists measure shininess, they're really comparing degrees of shines. In other words, when researchers say people are shy, they mean they are . shire than others. Now, listen again, please. Are you afraid to raise your hand in class even when you know the answer? If you are, most people would say that you are shy. If you feel shy, you're not alone. Nine out of ten people are at least a little shy.

Twelve, what is one of the ways suggested by psychologists for measuring shines? Thirteen, what is the purpose of the psychologists in asking questions? Questions fourteen through sixteen are based on the following passage, its parents nature to love and provide for children. Because our children are part of us, we want to see them happy nevertheless, oh, wish that our children have everything that we acted as Youngsters can cause us to spoil them. One of the most precious gifts you can give your children is true independence. IT lets them know how to gain what they desire by themselves and become owners of their own happiness. When the time comes for them to go to college or begin to work, you will have the confidence that you have raised a child that can both enter and contribute to society confidently. When children are not afforded the opportunity to explore self dependence or to fulfill their own needs, they may have false values. They won't realize the necessity of hard work and the needs of others. Yet children who are given love and affection and abundance are often kinder and more responsible than those whose parents agree to their every material demand. They develop a strong sense of self that stretches beyond possessions and the approval of their peers. As adults, they will understand that each individual is responsible for building the life they desire. IT can be difficult to watch children struggle to meet their personal goals, yet IT is wonderful to be by their side as they achieve IT. Your choice not to spoil your children will bless you with more opportunities to show them understanding and to be fully present with them as the journey moves toward adult od. Now listen again, please. Its parents nature to love and provide for children, because our children are part of us, we want to see them happy. Nevertheless, a wish that our children have everything that we lacked as Youngsters can cause us to spoil them. One of the most precious gifts you can give your children is true independence. IT lets them know how, again, what they desire by themselves and become owners of their own happiness. When the time comes for them to go to college or begin to work, you will have the confidence that you have raised a child that can both enter and contribute to society confidently. When children are not afforded the opportunity to explore self dependence, order to fulfill their own needs, they may have false values. They won't realize the necessity of hard work and the needs of others. Yet children who are given love and affection in abundance are often kinder and more responsible than those whose parents agree to their every material demand. They develop a strong sense of self that stretches beyond possession ons in the approval of their appeals. As adults, they will understand that each individual is responsible for building the life they desire. IT can be difficult to watch children struggle to meet their personal goals, yet IT is wonderful to be by their side as they achieve IT. Your choice not to spoil your children will bless you with more opportunities to show them understanding and to be fully present with them as the journey moves toward adulthood. Questions fourteen, why will a father buy his children some expensive gifts? Fifteen, what can we infer from the passage about spoiled children? Sixteen, according to the passage, what shouldn't parents do for children? Questions seventeen through twenty are based on the following conversation. Good morning, mister Johnson. How can I help you? Well. i'd like to talk to you about tim bond, the department manager. What seems to be the problem? Well, ever since SAndra left the department, I feel like i've been targeted to do all her work as well as mine. I'm expected to attend too many meetings, and I seem to be spending a lot of my time doing unnecessary paperwork. I'm sorry to hear that. And on top of that, i'd specifically asked if I could leave early last friday as i'd done a lot of overtime during the week. But that afternoon, even though i'd finished my assigned work, I was told to help other colleagues finish their work too. But surely that's a positive sign showing that mr. Bond has a lot . of trust in you, yes, but other colleagues get to leave early and they don't have such a lot of work to do. So you feel he's really making unrealistic . demands on you? Yes, absolutely. Have you approached mr. Borne about this particular problem? I've tried, but IT seems like he just has no time for me. Well, at this stage, IT would be Better if you approached him directly, if nothing else, showing that you've tried to solve the problem yourself. Before you take IT further, make IT clear that you're just not a complainer. Why don't you send an email requesting a meeting with him in private? Hm, i've been a bit worried about his reaction, but anyway, i'll send him an email to request a meeting and i'll see what happens from there. Thanks for your advice. Good luck and let us know the outcome. Now listen again, please. Good morning, mr. Johnson. How can I help you? Well, i'd like to talk to you about tim bond, the department manager.

Back in the 1800s, French artists like Eugène Louis Boudin and Claude Monet packed their paint brushes and set off to capture the natural landscape — and in the process, they 41 art as people knew it. While painting outdoors on the spot has been around for roughly 200 years, the “en plein air” (open-air) art movement 42 by Boudin and Monet has recently inspired a newer trend: urban sketching. This casual, 43 approach to en plein air art is often accompanied by text to tell the story of the artist’s surroundings when they travel. “Sketching on the go at different places around the globe opens your eyes to everything from the obvious to the 44 . A sketch captures a(n) 45 of people and places in a way that a photograph never can,” says Annette Morris, education director at Urban Sketchers, a global community that organises urban sketching walks for painting 46 . Alex Hillkurtz, an urban sketcher, believes drawing or painting 47 helps travellers slow down and experience a place in a different way. “While travelling, there’s a tendency to rush through wish-list experiences. Urban sketching retreats allow us to step out of the busy and noisy activities by creating something by hand,” he explains. “As we draw, we notice the beauty in the 48 : the way sunlight warms a scene, the comings and goings of locals in a market and the colours reflected in the water fountain.” “As an art instructor, it’s wonderful to see how each participant brings a(n) 49 perspective to what’s in front of them,” says Alicia Aradilla, who now leads urban sketching retreats. “Every sketchbook ends up being different; I find that 50 appealing about sketching trips.” 【答案】 41．K 42．J 43．B 44．E 45．F 46．A 47．H 48．I 49．C 50．D 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章通过介绍城市写生静修的背景、特点、意义以及参与者的体验，向读者展示了这一新兴趋势的魅力和价值。 41．考查动词。句意：早在19世纪，法国艺术家如尤金·路易·布丁和克劳德·莫奈带着他们的画笔出发，去捕捉自然景观——在这个过程中，他们改变了人们对艺术的认知。根据句意和空格后的名词art可知，空格处应该填入动词作谓语，且意义为“改变”，所以transformed填入空格处，符合句意。故选K项。 42．考查动词。句意：虽然户外现场绘画已经存在大约200年了，但由布丁和莫奈推广的“户外写生”艺术运动最近激发了一种新的趋势：城市写生。根据句意和空格前的名词短语art movement以及空格后的by可知，空格处应该用非谓语动词作定语，修饰前面的名词短语art movement，且意义为“推广”，所以过去分词popularized填入空格处，符合句意。故选J项。 43．考查形容词。句意：这种随意的、自由奔放的户外写生方式通常会配上文字，讲述艺术家旅行时周围的环境。根据句意和空格后的名词approach可知，空格处应该用形容词作定语，且意义为“自由奔放的”，所以free-spirited填入空格处，符合句意。故选B项。 44．考查形容词。句意：在全球各地的不同地方即兴写生，会让你看到从显而易见到难以察觉的一切。根据句意和空格前的the obvious可知，空格处应该用形容词，构成“the+形容词”结构（表一类事物）作宾语，且意义为“不为人注意的”，所以invisible填入空格处，符合句意。故选E项。 45．考查名词。句意：一幅速写以一种照片永远无法做到的方式捕捉了人和地方的记忆。根据句意和空格前的不定冠词a(n)可知，空格处应该用单数名词作宾语，且意义为“记忆”，所以memory填入空格处，符合句意。故选F项。 46．考查名词。句意：她是城市写生者组织的教育主任，该组织是一个全球性社区，为绘画爱好者组织城市写生活动。根据句意和空格前的介词for可知，空格处应该用名词作宾语，且意义为“爱好者”，所以，enthusiasts填入空格处，符合句意。故选A项。 47．考查形容词。句意：城市写生者亚历克斯·希尔库尔茨认为，现场绘画有助于旅行者放慢脚步，以不同的方式体验一个地方。空格处修饰前面的的动名词drawing or painting，且意义为“现场的”，所以形容词on-location填入空格处，符合句意。故选H项。 48．考查形容词。句意：当我们绘画时，我们会注意到平凡中的美：阳光如何温暖一个场景，市场上当地人的来来往往，以及水池中反射的颜色。根据句意和空格前的in the可知，空格处应该用形容词，构成“the+形容词”（表一类事物），且意义为“平凡的”，所以形容词ordinary填入空格处，符合句意。故选I项。 49．考查形容词。句意：“作为一名艺术教师，看到每个参与者都以一种全新的视角看待眼前的事物，这真是太棒了，”现在带领城市写生静修的阿莉西亚·阿拉迪拉说。根据句意和空格后的名词perspective可知，空格处应该用形容词作定语，修饰后面的名词，且意义为“新的”，所以形容词fresh填入空格处，符合句意。故选C项。 50．考查副词。句意：每个速写本最终都是不同的；我发现这种独特性是写生之旅最吸引人的地方。根据句意和空格后的形容词appealing可知，空格处应该用副词作状语，修饰后面的形容词appealing，且意义为“极其”，所以副词incredibly填入空格处，符合句意。故选D项。 III.Reading Comprehension (共45分) Section A Directions: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D.

Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read. (A) There is a fine line between a fake (赝品) and an exact copy of masterpieces. To an extent, it rests in the copyist’s intention. Are they trying to fool you and knowingly miss-sell their copy as an original, or are they openly presenting it as a replica (复制品). Adam Lowe — a trained artist in the copying business — has kept strictly to the well-intentioned camp. For a quarter of a century Lowe has spent his considerable energy producing high-quality reproductions of paintings and sculptures for museums and galleries around the world. He describes his digital scanning technique as being more close to drawing than to photography, as four cameras are suspended above a painting’s surface taking pictures from every perceived angle to create a single composite image. From this data a precise mould (模具) of the picture surface is made, with which the high-resolution digital photograph is then printed. The Prado Museum in Madrid appointed Lowe’s company, Factum Arte, to scan its collection of Black Paintings by Francisco de Goya. Lowe produced a high-resolution close-up crop of the Spanish artist’s famous The Dog, a framed copy of which you can buy in the museum’s shop for about 990 euros. He has taken the idea of copying even further through his Spanish Gallery where “nothing is real” — from the decorated ceiling to the paintings hanging on the walls. He declares it his “greatest achievement”. Lowe sees his creations as the 21st-century version of “cultural preservation” and thinks it ought to be funded by governments and universities. He has spoken to the mayor of Madrid about setting up a global arts center for cutting-edge digital technologies, but that ambition remains in the hands of the politicians. I went to visit Lowe at his art-making HQ, located on the edge of Madrid. Top-of-the-range digital printers, complex cameras and virtual reality headsets dotted the 3D-printed Greek sculptures. An army of computer scientists were busy with their works. As he sat down with a cool glass of early evening wine he seemed worn down by decades of skepticism. “People call us Factum, the factory of fakes,” he complained. “What we are doing is scientific recording to give accurate information about the artwork’s surface that allows you to understand it better and more deeply.” 66．What is the primary purpose of Adam Lowe’s work? A．To create exact fakes of famous artworks. B．To replace original artworks with replicas. C．To sell copies of masterpieces to private collectors. D．To produce high-quality reproductions for museums. 67．What’s special about Lowe’s technique? A．It uses a single camera to capture the entire image. B．It involves drawing each part of the painting by hand. C．It relies on computer-generated imageries to create the artwork. D．It uses multiple (多个的) cameras to take pictures from different angles. 68．How do people think of Lowe’s work? A．They think his work is overpriced. B．They consider his replicas to be fakes. C．They believe his technique is outdated. D．They doubt the accuracy of his reproductions. 69．What is the best title for the passage? A．The Innovative Technique of Adam Lowe B．The Debate over Fake Artworks in Museums C．The Challenges of Running a Copying Business D．Preserving Art Through High-Quality Reproductions 【答案】66．D 67．D 68．B 69．D 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了Adam Lowe花费25年为世界各地博物馆和画廊制作高质量艺术复制品，采用多相机多角度拍摄的数字扫描技术，虽被人视为制作赝品，但他认为这是21世纪的文化保护方式。 66．细节理解题。根据第二段中“For a quarter of a century Lowe has spent his considerable energy producing high-quality reproductions of paintings and sculptures for museums and galleries around the world. (25年来，Lowe花费了大量精力为世界各地的博物馆和画廊制作高质量的绘画和雕塑复制品)”可知，Adam Lowe工作的主要目的是为博物馆制作高质量的复制品。故选D项。 67．细节理解题。根据第二段中“He describes his digital scanning technique as being more close to drawing than to photography, as four cameras are suspended above a painting’s surface taking pictures from every perceived angle to create a single composite image. (他说他的数字扫描技术更接近绘画，而不是摄影，因为四个相机悬挂在画作表面，从每个感知到的角度拍照，以创建一个单一的合成图像)”可知，Lowe的技术特点是使用多个相机从不同角度拍摄照片。故选D项。 68．细节理解题。根据最后一段中Lowe所说的话“People call us Factum, the factory of fakes (人们叫我们Factum，假货工厂)”可知，人们认为Lowe的复制品是赝品。故选B项。 69．主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第一段中“Adam Lowe — a trained artist in the copying business — has kept strictly to the well-intentioned camp. (Adam Lowe——一位从事复制工作的专业艺术家——一直严格秉持善意复制的原则)”可知，文章主要讲述了Adam Lowe通过制作高质量的复制品来进行文化保护的故事，他为世界各地博物馆和画廊制作高质量艺术复制品，采用多相机多角度拍摄的数字扫描技术，虽被人视为制作赝品，但他认为这是21世纪的文化保护方式。因此，D项“通过高质量复制品保护艺术”最契合文章主旨，适合作为文章标题。故选D项。 (B) Information You Can Trust —A Guide to Our Editorial Process Our goal at wikiHow is to deliver trustworthy articles that engage our readers and meet their informational and emotional needs.

A young person alone in a dangerous situation attracts attention and supporters. Young sailors also attract various views. For example, Jessica Watson was asked by the government to call off her solo trip across the ocean, yet the Prime Minister (总理) called her “a hero for young Australians” when she returned.  It seems views are poles apart on the ability and independence of young people. Some experts tell us that teenage brains are likely to make wrong judgments. But such ideas often do not apply to specific individuals (个体) . Between the ages of 14 and 18, teenagers differ greatly in their abilities. The amount of independence that each is allowed should be determined not simply by their ages but by discussion with the related, responsible adults. Some teens are certainly inexperienced and make childish mistakes, but the ones who attempt dangerous journeys normally do so by winning the confidence of hard-headed and experienced adult supporters. But it’s also wrong to think that any 16-year-old can make a hit as Jessica Watson. Watson calls herself “a common girl who had a dream”. Her purpose is to encourage teenagers but this idea can have the opposite effect of making them feel not good enough because great achievements are beyond them. Should all teens have such wild dreams? Actually, individuals face different conditions that limit their dreams. Teenagers who travel around the world alone should not be judged by preconceived (先入为主的) views about young people. Nor should young “common” teenagers feel pressure to long for extraordinary personal goals. In fact, I believe the example of solo sailing overstresses what an individual can do. The teenage years are when most of us “common” people learn that we can achieve great things in cooperation with others. 73．Why is Jessica Watson mentioned in the first paragraph? A．To set a heroic example for teenagers. B．To point out the public’s interest in young people. C．To introduce different opinions on teenagers’ adventures. D．To show the Prime Minister disagreed with the government. 74．What can determine the amount of teenagers’ independence? A．Different journeys. B．Brain development. C．Communication with adults. D．Confidence in themselves. 75．What does Watson mean by calling herself “a common girl who had a dream”? A．She likes dangerous journeys. B．Teenagers can make success. C．She can accept she is common. D．Teenagers should go travelling. 76．What’s the author’s attitude towards teenagers’ act of travelling alone? A．Doubtful. B．Supportive. C．Uncaring. D．Uncertain. 【答案】73．C 74．C 75．B 76．A 【导语】这是一篇议论文。文章主要讲述了各方对于青少年独自一人环游世界或航行的不同看法。 73．推理判断题。根据文章第一段“For example, Jessica Watson was asked by the government to call off her solo trip across the ocean, yet the Prime Minister (总理) called her “a hero for young Australians” when she returned. It seems views are poles apart on the ability and independence of young people.(例如，杰西卡·沃森被政府要求取消她的航行，但当她回来时，总理称她为“澳大利亚年轻人的英雄”。人们似乎对年轻人的能力和独立性感到困惑)”可知，对于Jessica Watson的冒险行为人们的看法不一致，文章用这个例子为下文人们对年轻人冒险行为的不同看法进行铺垫。故选C。 74．细节理解题。根据文章第二段“The amount of independence that each is allowed should be determined not simply by their ages but by discussion with the related, responsible adults.(每个人的独立程度不应该简单地由他们的年龄来决定，而应该通过与相关的、负责任的成年人讨论来决定。)”可知，与成年人的交流可以决定青少年的独立性。故选C。 75．词句猜测题。根据文章第三段“Her purpose is to encourage teenagers but this idea can have the opposite effect of making them feel not good enough because great achievements are beyond them. (她的意图是鼓励青少年，但这个想法可能会产生相反的效果，让他们觉得自己不够好，因为伟大的成就超出了他们的能力范围)”可知，Jessica Watson说自己是一个有梦想的普通女孩的本意是想鼓励其他青少年也可以像她一样取得成功。故选B。 76．推理判断题。根据最后一段“Teenagers who travel around the world alone should not be judged by preconceived (先入为主的)views about young people. Nor should young “common” teenagers feel pressure to long for extraordinary personal goals. In fact, I believe the example of solo sailing overstresses what an individual can do. The teenage years are when most of us “common” people learn that we can achieve great things in cooperation with others. (不应该用对年轻人先入为主的看法来评判独自环游世界的青少年。年轻的“普通”青少年也不应该感到渴望非凡的个人目标的压力。事实上，我认为单人航海的例子过分强调了个人主义。青少年时期是我们大多数“普通人”知道我们可以与他人合作取得伟大成就的时候)”可知，作者觉得独自一人旅行太过于强调个人主义了。因此作者对此行为持“质疑”的态度。故选A。 Section C Directions: Read the following passages. Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box. Each sentence can be used only once. Note that there are two more sentences than you need. Tech companies want your kid’s birth date. Should you tell them? Technology companies already know all about you and your family, including your location, interests and other details. But recently they have been asking a question that can feel a little too personal. Streaming services, games and social media companies want to know young children’s birth dates. 77 . The app often knows a child is watching thanks to built-in settings that let you set up profiles for kids. Families are faced with a hard choice: share a sensitive piece of information about their child, lie or find a new way to watch “Bluey.” “It makes me uncomfortable, and obviously my children cannot agree to that profile being created,” said Dan Raile, a stay-at-home parent in San Francisco. The company declined to comment on the policy but pointed to an explanation on its website that says in part that birth dates are used to improve its services and “deliver targeted advertising.” In the past, most apps and services asked you to confirm you were over a certain age — typically 13 in the United States-when creating a new account, but not to give a birth date. 78 . “There is more legal requirement to treat people in age-appropriate ways, and to do that correctly, you need to have a pretty good idea of how old someone is,” said Josh Golin, executive director at Fairplay, a nonprofit children’s safety group. A birth date is considered a piece of personal identifying information. For most adults online, this type of information is already available. Many parents, are worried their children’s information being used for anything from marketing to identify theft, are reluctant to hand over the date to tech companies. “ 79 . Companies are already collecting so much information on their users that they should be able to infer what ages they are,” said Irene Ly, policy counsel at Common Sense Media. What can you do instead? The solution, if you’re comfortable, could be to lie, some experts said. But just a little. “Generally, lie with some caution,” said Hayley Tsukayama, a senior legislative activist at the Electronic Frontier Foundation, a digital civil liberties group. 80 . That would be inaccurate data if it fell into the wrong hands. “It’s a shame because we should be able to trust that these platforms are only collecting our child’s birthday and using it for exactly the reason they say. But we can’t really trust that, so I think lying is okay,” Golin said. A．It’s understandable that parents feel hesitant. B．But for some parents, that degree of detail is a step too far. C．Now, more tech companies are trying to confirm the exact ages of their users, including those who are under 18. D．She recommended entering your child’s birthday as a month earlier or a month later so the general age is the same. E．Disney Plus, on the other hand, says it can use the information to personalize content and recommendations and to deliver targeted ads. F．When Disney Plus started demanding that existing users enter their children’s exact birth date to continue streaming, many parents were alarmed. 【答案】F C A D 【导语】本文是议论文。文章围绕科技公司要求用户提供孩子的出生日期这一做法展开讨论，分析了家长对此的担忧、科技公司的解释以及专家对此的看法和建议。 77．根据后文“The app often knows a child is watching thanks to built-in settings that let you set up profiles for kids.(由于内置设置允许您为孩子设置个人资料，该应用程序通常知道孩子正在观看。)”可知，此句提到一款应用允许为孩子设置个人资料，所以空处应是说明具体应用及其要求，F项“When Disney Plus started demanding that existing users enter their children’s exact birth date to continue streaming, many parents were alarmed.(当Disney Plus开始要求现有用户输入孩子的确切出生日期才能继续流媒体时，许多家长都感到震惊)”符合文意，提到Disney Plus这款应用，引出下文。故选F项。 78．根据前文“In the past, most apps and services asked you to confirm you were over a certain age--typically 13 in the United States-when creating a new account, but not to give a birth date.(过去，大多数应用程序和服务在创建新账户时都会要求你确认自己已超过一定年龄——在美国通常是13岁，但不会提供出生日期)”可知，此处讲述过去应用程序的情况，所以C项“Now, more tech companies are trying to confirm the exact ages of their users, including those who are under 18.(现在，越来越多的科技公司正试图确认其用户的确切年龄，包括那些未满18岁的用户)”讲述现在的情况，和前文形成对比。故选C项。 79．根据前文“Many parents, are worried their children’s information being used for anything from marketing to identify theft, are reluctant to hand over the date to tech companies.(许多家长担心孩子的信息被用于从营销到身份盗窃等各种用途，因此不愿将数据交给科技公司)”可知，此处讨论父母的担心信息被泄露，根据后文“Companies are already collecting so much information on their users that they should be able to infer what ages they are(公司已经收集了如此多的用户信息，他们应该能够推断出用户的年龄)”可知，公司已经收集了如此多的用户信息，A项“It’s understandable that parents feel hesitant.(家长们感到犹豫是可以理解的)”承接上文，引出下文。故选A项。 80．根据前文““Generally, lie with some caution,” said Hayley Tsukayama, a senior legislative activist at the Electronic Frontier Foundation, a digital civil liberties group.(数字公民自由组织电子前沿基金会（Electronic Frontier Foundation）的资深立法活动人士Hayley Tsukayama说：“一般来说，说谎要谨慎一些。”)”可知，此处提到在填写资料的时候说谎，所以D项“She recommended entering your child’s birthday as a month earlier or a month later so the general age is the same.(她建议将孩子的生日提前一个月或晚一个月填写，这样一般年龄是一样的)”承接上文，说明具体资料填写建议，其中she指的就是Hayley Tsukayama。故选D项。 IV. Summary Writing (10分) Directions: Read the following passage. Summarize the main idea and the main point（s） of the passage in no more than 60 words. Use your own words as far as possible. 81-90: e-learning: Hazy past—better future? How much of an effect does technology have on students’ learning? A significant one, it seems, according to experts. Currently available technologies, the most important of which are computers and the Internet, apparently provide a learning environment in which problem-solving and intellectual enquiry can flourish. The process of learning in the classroom may become significantly more effective as students can deal with information on the computer. Or so the theory goes. My own viewpoint is rather different, I’m afraid. Computers have been around for two decades as part of school equipment. There are, of course, obstacles like costs to overcome, but it’s just a matter of time and effort. This is because schools have done what every organisation does when it sees an innovation—it applies the innovation to its existing model, which adds cost but doesn’t transform the standard classroom. We have, during that period, spent over $60 billion on them, but in my view they seem to have had little or no effect on learning in schools. Content is king and the mode of delivery is irrelevant. If a teacher makes the subject matter interesting, it does not matter what, if any, equipment is used. However, change is on the horizon. I think student-centred learning will become the norm and transform education. Computers will pave the way for far more independent learning. Students who currently don’t have access to schools or teachers are now able to get online. They can study from home thanks to the fact that more learning programmes are being written for learners who are forced by their circumstances to be self-sufficient. This would prove especially beneficial in those areas of the world where quality education is limited or extremely expensive. Therefore, in a few years’ time we could have a completely different conversation about technology and its impact on learning. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】Although experts say modern technology has a significant effect on classroom learning, the writer holds a different view. Schools have invested much to apply computers in their classroom teaching, but it hasn’t changed the classroom teaching because what teachers teach is more important. But computers make it possible for those with no access to school to study on their own. 【分析】这是一篇概要写作。 【详解】写作步骤 1）细读原文。首先要仔细阅读短文，掌握文章主旨。文章说明了尽管专家说现代技术对课堂学习有显著的影响，作者却持有不同的观点。学校投入了大量资金将计算机应用到课堂教学中，但这并没有改变课堂教学，因为老师教什么更重要。但是计算机使那些不能上学的人能够自学。 2）弄清结构，归纳段意。概要写作是写全文概要，不是写某一部分的概要，或者就某些问题写出要点。因此一定要弄清文章结构，归纳文章各段大意。 3）列出原文要点。分析原文的内容和结构，将内容分项扼要表述并注意在结构上的顺序。在此基础上选出与文章主题密切相关的部分。 4）在写作时要特别注意下面几点： （1）概要应包括原文中的主要事实，略去不必要的细节。 （2）安排好篇幅的比例，概要应同原文保持协调，即用较多的文字写重要内容，用较少的文字写次要内容。 （3）注意要点之间的衔接，要用适当的关联词语贯通全文，切忌只简单地写出一些互不相干的句子，但也不要每两句之间都加关联词语，以免显得生硬。 （4）不排斥用原文的某些词句，但不要照搬原文的句子，如果不能完全用自己的话语表达，至少对原文句子做一些同义词替换，如果结构上也能有一些转换会更好。 （5）计算词数，看是否符合规定的词数要求。 V.

Back in the 1800s, French artists like Eugène Louis Boudin and Claude Monet packed their paint brushes and set off to capture the natural landscape — and in the process, they 41 art as people knew it. While painting outdoors on the spot has been around for roughly 200 years, the “en plein air” (open-air) art movement 42 by Boudin and Monet has recently inspired a newer trend: urban sketching. This casual, 43 approach to en plein air art is often accompanied by text to tell the story of the artist’s surroundings when they travel. “Sketching on the go at different places around the globe opens your eyes to everything from the obvious to the 44 . A sketch captures a(n) 45 of people and places in a way that a photograph never can,” says Annette Morris, education director at Urban Sketchers, a global community that organises urban sketching walks for painting 46 . Alex Hillkurtz, an urban sketcher, believes drawing or painting 47 helps travellers slow down and experience a place in a different way. “While travelling, there’s a tendency to rush through wish-list experiences. Urban sketching retreats allow us to step out of the busy and noisy activities by creating something by hand,” he explains. “As we draw, we notice the beauty in the 48 : the way sunlight warms a scene, the comings and goings of locals in a market and the colours reflected in the water fountain.” “As an art instructor, it’s wonderful to see how each participant brings a(n) 49 perspective to what’s in front of them,” says Alicia Aradilla, who now leads urban sketching retreats. “Every sketchbook ends up being different; I find that 50 appealing about sketching trips.” III.Reading Comprehension (共45分) Section A Directions: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D.

Drowning (溺水)is a real possibility even for the most 52 swimmers. However, this dangerous situation can be changed with watchful eyes. This summer in Florida, two young men helped to 53 one drowning death. Griffin Emerson, a 6-year-old child, swam in an apartment block’s pool. He enjoyed the pool’s 54 area. But he began to 55 toward the deeper part slowly, struggling to keep his head above water. All that came about as no one else, including his mother, seemed to 56 him. Griffin’s frightening 57 in the water happened over the course of a full minute, ending up with the child going down to the 58 of the pool. However, one young man, Noah, did find Griffin in the pool. He told his friend Weston to call 911 at once. And Noah 59 to jump into the pool to 60 the 6-year-old. Noah made it to Griffin, caught him and 61 him to the surface and then to the side of the pool. Before the emergency services’ arrival, Noah and Weston tried their best to 62 life-saving steps. 63 , a few minutes later, Griffin recovered his breath.

Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read. (A) There is a fine line between a fake (赝品) and an exact copy of masterpieces. To an extent, it rests in the copyist’s intention. Are they trying to fool you and knowingly miss-sell their copy as an original, or are they openly presenting it as a replica (复制品). Adam Lowe — a trained artist in the copying business — has kept strictly to the well-intentioned camp. For a quarter of a century Lowe has spent his considerable energy producing high-quality reproductions of paintings and sculptures for museums and galleries around the world. He describes his digital scanning technique as being more close to drawing than to photography, as four cameras are suspended above a painting’s surface taking pictures from every perceived angle to create a single composite image. From this data a precise mould (模具) of the picture surface is made, with which the high-resolution digital photograph is then printed. The Prado Museum in Madrid appointed Lowe’s company, Factum Arte, to scan its collection of Black Paintings by Francisco de Goya. Lowe produced a high-resolution close-up crop of the Spanish artist’s famous The Dog, a framed copy of which you can buy in the museum’s shop for about 990 euros. He has taken the idea of copying even further through his Spanish Gallery where “nothing is real” — from the decorated ceiling to the paintings hanging on the walls. He declares it his “greatest achievement”. Lowe sees his creations as the 21st-century version of “cultural preservation” and thinks it ought to be funded by governments and universities. He has spoken to the mayor of Madrid about setting up a global arts center for cutting-edge digital technologies, but that ambition remains in the hands of the politicians. I went to visit Lowe at his art-making HQ, located on the edge of Madrid. Top-of-the-range digital printers, complex cameras and virtual reality headsets dotted the 3D-printed Greek sculptures. An army of computer scientists were busy with their works. As he sat down with a cool glass of early evening wine he seemed worn down by decades of skepticism. “People call us Factum, the factory of fakes,” he complained. “What we are doing is scientific recording to give accurate information about the artwork’s surface that allows you to understand it better and more deeply.” 66．What is the primary purpose of Adam Lowe’s work? A．To create exact fakes of famous artworks. B．To replace original artworks with replicas. C．To sell copies of masterpieces to private collectors. D．To produce high-quality reproductions for museums. 67．What’s special about Lowe’s technique? A．It uses a single camera to capture the entire image. B．It involves drawing each part of the painting by hand. C．It relies on computer-generated imageries to create the artwork. D．It uses multiple (多个的) cameras to take pictures from different angles. 68．How do people think of Lowe’s work? A．They think his work is overpriced. B．They consider his replicas to be fakes. C．They believe his technique is outdated. D．They doubt the accuracy of his reproductions. 69．What is the best title for the passage? A．The Innovative Technique of Adam Lowe B．The Debate over Fake Artworks in Museums C．The Challenges of Running a Copying Business D．Preserving Art Through High-Quality Reproductions (B) Information You Can Trust —A Guide to Our Editorial Process Our goal at wikiHow is to deliver trustworthy articles that engage our readers and meet their informational and emotional needs.

A young person alone in a dangerous situation attracts attention and supporters. Young sailors also attract various views. For example, Jessica Watson was asked by the government to call off her solo trip across the ocean, yet the Prime Minister (总理) called her “a hero for young Australians” when she returned.  It seems views are poles apart on the ability and independence of young people. Some experts tell us that teenage brains are likely to make wrong judgments. But such ideas often do not apply to specific individuals (个体) . Between the ages of 14 and 18, teenagers differ greatly in their abilities. The amount of independence that each is allowed should be determined not simply by their ages but by discussion with the related, responsible adults. Some teens are certainly inexperienced and make childish mistakes, but the ones who attempt dangerous journeys normally do so by winning the confidence of hard-headed and experienced adult supporters. But it’s also wrong to think that any 16-year-old can make a hit as Jessica Watson. Watson calls herself “a common girl who had a dream”. Her purpose is to encourage teenagers but this idea can have the opposite effect of making them feel not good enough because great achievements are beyond them. Should all teens have such wild dreams? Actually, individuals face different conditions that limit their dreams. Teenagers who travel around the world alone should not be judged by preconceived (先入为主的) views about young people. Nor should young “common” teenagers feel pressure to long for extraordinary personal goals. In fact, I believe the example of solo sailing overstresses what an individual can do. The teenage years are when most of us “common” people learn that we can achieve great things in cooperation with others. 73．Why is Jessica Watson mentioned in the first paragraph? A．To set a heroic example for teenagers. B．To point out the public’s interest in young people. C．To introduce different opinions on teenagers’ adventures. D．To show the Prime Minister disagreed with the government. 74．What can determine the amount of teenagers’ independence? A．Different journeys. B．Brain development. C．Communication with adults. D．Confidence in themselves. 75．What does Watson mean by calling herself “a common girl who had a dream”? A．She likes dangerous journeys. B．Teenagers can make success. C．She can accept she is common. D．Teenagers should go travelling. 76．What’s the author’s attitude towards teenagers’ act of travelling alone? A．Doubtful. B．Supportive. C．Uncaring. D．Uncertain. Section C Directions: Read the following passages. Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box. Each sentence can be used only once. Note that there are two more sentences than you need. Tech companies want your kid’s birth date. Should you tell them? Technology companies already know all about you and your family, including your location, interests and other details. But recently they have been asking a question that can feel a little too personal. Streaming services, games and social media companies want to know young children’s birth dates. 77 . The app often knows a child is watching thanks to built-in settings that let you set up profiles for kids. Families are faced with a hard choice: share a sensitive piece of information about their child, lie or find a new way to watch “Bluey.” “It makes me uncomfortable, and obviously my children cannot agree to that profile being created,” said Dan Raile, a stay-at-home parent in San Francisco. The company declined to comment on the policy but pointed to an explanation on its website that says in part that birth dates are used to improve its services and “deliver targeted advertising.” In the past, most apps and services asked you to confirm you were over a certain age — typically 13 in the United States-when creating a new account, but not to give a birth date. 78 . “There is more legal requirement to treat people in age-appropriate ways, and to do that correctly, you need to have a pretty good idea of how old someone is,” said Josh Golin, executive director at Fairplay, a nonprofit children’s safety group. A birth date is considered a piece of personal identifying information. For most adults online, this type of information is already available. Many parents, are worried their children’s information being used for anything from marketing to identify theft, are reluctant to hand over the date to tech companies. “ 79 . Companies are already collecting so much information on their users that they should be able to infer what ages they are,” said Irene Ly, policy counsel at Common Sense Media. What can you do instead? The solution, if you’re comfortable, could be to lie, some experts said. But just a little. “Generally, lie with some caution,” said Hayley Tsukayama, a senior legislative activist at the Electronic Frontier Foundation, a digital civil liberties group. 80 . That would be inaccurate data if it fell into the wrong hands. “It’s a shame because we should be able to trust that these platforms are only collecting our child’s birthday and using it for exactly the reason they say. But we can’t really trust that, so I think lying is okay,” Golin said. A．It’s understandable that parents feel hesitant. B．But for some parents, that degree of detail is a step too far. C．Now, more tech companies are trying to confirm the exact ages of their users, including those who are under 18. D．She recommended entering your child’s birthday as a month earlier or a month later so the general age is the same. E．Disney Plus, on the other hand, says it can use the information to personalize content and recommendations and to deliver targeted ads. F．When Disney Plus started demanding that existing users enter their children’s exact birth date to continue streaming, many parents were alarmed. IV. Summary Writing (10分) Directions: Read the following passage. Summarize the main idea and the main point（s） of the passage in no more than 60 words. Use your own words as far as possible. 81-90: e-learning: Hazy past—better future? How much of an effect does technology have on students’ learning? A significant one, it seems, according to experts. Currently available technologies, the most important of which are computers and the Internet, apparently provide a learning environment in which problem-solving and intellectual enquiry can flourish. The process of learning in the classroom may become significantly more effective as students can deal with information on the computer. Or so the theory goes. My own viewpoint is rather different, I’m afraid. Computers have been around for two decades as part of school equipment. There are, of course, obstacles like costs to overcome, but it’s just a matter of time and effort. This is because schools have done what every organisation does when it sees an innovation—it applies the innovation to its existing model, which adds cost but doesn’t transform the standard classroom. We have, during that period, spent over $60 billion on them, but in my view they seem to have had little or no effect on learning in schools. Content is king and the mode of delivery is irrelevant. If a teacher makes the subject matter interesting, it does not matter what, if any, equipment is used. However, change is on the horizon. I think student-centred learning will become the norm and transform education. Computers will pave the way for far more independent learning. Students who currently don’t have access to schools or teachers are now able to get online. They can study from home thanks to the fact that more learning programmes are being written for learners who are forced by their circumstances to be self-sufficient. This would prove especially beneficial in those areas of the world where quality education is limited or extremely expensive. Therefore, in a few years’ time we could have a completely different conversation about technology and its impact on learning. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ V.

Back in the 1800s, French artists like Eugène Louis Boudin and Claude Monet packed their paint brushes and set off to capture the natural landscape — and in the process, they 41 art as people knew it. While painting outdoors on the spot has been around for roughly 200 years, the “en plein air” (open-air) art movement 42 by Boudin and Monet has recently inspired a newer trend: urban sketching. This casual, 43 approach to en plein air art is often accompanied by text to tell the story of the artist’s surroundings when they travel. “Sketching on the go at different places around the globe opens your eyes to everything from the obvious to the 44 . A sketch captures a(n) 45 of people and places in a way that a photograph never can,” says Annette Morris, education director at Urban Sketchers, a global community that organises urban sketching walks for painting 46 . Alex Hillkurtz, an urban sketcher, believes drawing or painting 47 helps travellers slow down and experience a place in a different way. “While travelling, there’s a tendency to rush through wish-list experiences. Urban sketching retreats allow us to step out of the busy and noisy activities by creating something by hand,” he explains. “As we draw, we notice the beauty in the 48 : the way sunlight warms a scene, the comings and goings of locals in a market and the colours reflected in the water fountain.” “As an art instructor, it’s wonderful to see how each participant brings a(n) 49 perspective to what’s in front of them,” says Alicia Aradilla, who now leads urban sketching retreats. “Every sketchbook ends up being different; I find that 50 appealing about sketching trips.” III.Reading Comprehension (共45分) Section A Directions: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D.

Drowning (溺水)is a real possibility even for the most 52 swimmers. However, this dangerous situation can be changed with watchful eyes. This summer in Florida, two young men helped to 53 one drowning death. Griffin Emerson, a 6-year-old child, swam in an apartment block’s pool. He enjoyed the pool’s 54 area. But he began to 55 toward the deeper part slowly, struggling to keep his head above water. All that came about as no one else, including his mother, seemed to 56 him. Griffin’s frightening 57 in the water happened over the course of a full minute, ending up with the child going down to the 58 of the pool. However, one young man, Noah, did find Griffin in the pool. He told his friend Weston to call 911 at once. And Noah 59 to jump into the pool to 60 the 6-year-old. Noah made it to Griffin, caught him and 61 him to the surface and then to the side of the pool. Before the emergency services’ arrival, Noah and Weston tried their best to 62 life-saving steps. 63 , a few minutes later, Griffin recovered his breath. Griffin’s mother was 64 to Noah and Weston for their heroic actions.

Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read. (A) There is a fine line between a fake (赝品) and an exact copy of masterpieces. To an extent, it rests in the copyist’s intention. Are they trying to fool you and knowingly miss-sell their copy as an original, or are they openly presenting it as a replica (复制品).

A young person alone in a dangerous situation attracts attention and supporters. Young sailors also attract various views. For example, Jessica Watson was asked by the government to call off her solo trip across the ocean, yet the Prime Minister (总理) called her “a hero for young Australians” when she returned.  It seems views are poles apart on the ability and independence of young people. Some experts tell us that teenage brains are likely to make wrong judgments. But such ideas often do not apply to specific individuals (个体) . Between the ages of 14 and 18, teenagers differ greatly in their abilities. The amount of independence that each is allowed should be determined not simply by their ages but by discussion with the related, responsible adults. Some teens are certainly inexperienced and make childish mistakes, but the ones who attempt dangerous journeys normally do so by winning the confidence of hard-headed and experienced adult supporters. But it’s also wrong to think that any 16-year-old can make a hit as Jessica Watson. Watson calls herself “a common girl who had a dream”. Her purpose is to encourage teenagers but this idea can have the opposite effect of making them feel not good enough because great achievements are beyond them. Should all teens have such wild dreams? Actually, individuals face different conditions that limit their dreams. Teenagers who travel around the world alone should not be judged by preconceived (先入为主的) views about young people. Nor should young “common” teenagers feel pressure to long for extraordinary personal goals. In fact, I believe the example of solo sailing overstresses what an individual can do. The teenage years are when most of us “common” people learn that we can achieve great things in cooperation with others. 73．Why is Jessica Watson mentioned in the first paragraph? A．To set a heroic example for teenagers. B．To point out the public’s interest in young people. C．To introduce different opinions on teenagers’ adventures. D．To show the Prime Minister disagreed with the government. 74．What can determine the amount of teenagers’ independence? A．Different journeys. B．Brain development. C．Communication with adults. D．Confidence in themselves. 75．What does Watson mean by calling herself “a common girl who had a dream”? A．She likes dangerous journeys. B．Teenagers can make success. C．She can accept she is common. D．Teenagers should go travelling. 76．What’s the author’s attitude towards teenagers’ act of travelling alone? A．Doubtful. B．Supportive. C．Uncaring. D．Uncertain. Section C Directions: Read the following passages. Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box. Each sentence can be used only once. Note that there are two more sentences than you need. Tech companies want your kid’s birth date. Should you tell them? Technology companies already know all about you and your family, including your location, interests and other details. But recently they have been asking a question that can feel a little too personal. Streaming services, games and social media companies want to know young children’s birth dates. 77 . The app often knows a child is watching thanks to built-in settings that let you set up profiles for kids. Families are faced with a hard choice: share a sensitive piece of information about their child, lie or find a new way to watch “Bluey.” “It makes me uncomfortable, and obviously my children cannot agree to that profile being created,” said Dan Raile, a stay-at-home parent in San Francisco. The company declined to comment on the policy but pointed to an explanation on its website that says in part that birth dates are used to improve its services and “deliver targeted advertising.” In the past, most apps and services asked you to confirm you were over a certain age — typically 13 in the United States-when creating a new account, but not to give a birth date. 78 . “There is more legal requirement to treat people in age-appropriate ways, and to do that correctly, you need to have a pretty good idea of how old someone is,” said Josh Golin, executive director at Fairplay, a nonprofit children’s safety group. A birth date is considered a piece of personal identifying information. For most adults online, this type of information is already available. Many parents, are worried their children’s information being used for anything from marketing to identify theft, are reluctant to hand over the date to tech companies. “ 79 . Companies are already collecting so much information on their users that they should be able to infer what ages they are,” said Irene Ly, policy counsel at Common Sense Media. What can you do instead? The solution, if you’re comfortable, could be to lie, some experts said. But just a little. “Generally, lie with some caution,” said Hayley Tsukayama, a senior legislative activist at the Electronic Frontier Foundation, a digital civil liberties group. 80 . That would be inaccurate data if it fell into the wrong hands. “It’s a shame because we should be able to trust that these platforms are only collecting our child’s birthday and using it for exactly the reason they say. But we can’t really trust that, so I think lying is okay,” Golin said. A．It’s understandable that parents feel hesitant. B．But for some parents, that degree of detail is a step too far. C．Now, more tech companies are trying to confirm the exact ages of their users, including those who are under 18. D．She recommended entering your child’s birthday as a month earlier or a month later so the general age is the same. E．Disney Plus, on the other hand, says it can use the information to personalize content and recommendations and to deliver targeted ads. F．When Disney Plus started demanding that existing users enter their children’s exact birth date to continue streaming, many parents were alarmed. IV. Summary Writing (10分) Directions: Read the following passage. Summarize the main idea and the main point（s） of the passage in no more than 60 words. Use your own words as far as possible. 81-90: e-learning: Hazy past—better future? How much of an effect does technology have on students’ learning? A significant one, it seems, according to experts. Currently available technologies, the most important of which are computers and the Internet, apparently provide a learning environment in which problem-solving and intellectual enquiry can flourish. The process of learning in the classroom may become significantly more effective as students can deal with information on the computer. Or so the theory goes. My own viewpoint is rather different, I’m afraid. Computers have been around for two decades as part of school equipment. There are, of course, obstacles like costs to overcome, but it’s just a matter of time and effort. This is because schools have done what every organisation does when it sees an innovation—it applies the innovation to its existing model, which adds cost but doesn’t transform the standard classroom. We have, during that period, spent over $60 billion on them, but in my view they seem to have had little or no effect on learning in schools. Content is king and the mode of delivery is irrelevant. If a teacher makes the subject matter interesting, it does not matter what, if any, equipment is used. However, change is on the horizon. I think student-centred learning will become the norm and transform education. Computers will pave the way for far more independent learning. Students who currently don’t have access to schools or teachers are now able to get online. They can study from home thanks to the fact that more learning programmes are being written for learners who are forced by their circumstances to be self-sufficient. This would prove especially beneficial in those areas of the world where quality education is limited or extremely expensive. Therefore, in a few years’ time we could have a completely different conversation about technology and its impact on learning. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ V.
