第二部分:阅读理解
第一节:阅读短文,根据其内容,选择最佳选项。(共15小题,每小题2.5分,满分37.5分)
A
The opening day of the 2022 Winter Olympics meets with the “Beginning of Spring”, which is the first of the 24 solar terms (节气) of the year. Let’s learn something about other solar terms.
The Spring Equinox is the fourth term of the year. It is a good time to fly kites. In ancient times, people did not have good medical resources. So to hope for good health, they wrote their medical problems on paper kites. When the kite was in the air, people would cut off the string to let the paper kite float away, meaning the flying away of diseases.
Clear and Bright is the 5th solar term. It is the only one whose first day is also a traditional Chinese festival, Tomb-Sweeping(扫墓) Day. Flying kites is an activity liked by many Chinese during the day. What makes flying kites during this day special is that people cut the string while the kite is in the sky to let it fly free. It is said that it brings good luck and diseases can be chased away by doing this.
Grain Rain is the last term in spring. This period of rainfall is very important for the growth of crops. There is an old custom in southern China that people drink tea on the day of Grain Rain. Spring tea during Grain Rain is rich in vitamins and amino acids (氨基酸) which can help to remove heat from the body and is good for the eyes. It is also said that drinking tea on this day would prevent bad luck.
Start of Summer is the 7th term of the year. The temperature will rise quickly during this period. In ancient China, people believed a round egg represented a happy life and eating eggs on the day of Start of Summer was a hope for good health. They put leftover tea into boiled water together with eggs and the “tea egg” was created. Today the tea egg has become a traditional snack in China.
11. Which of the following solar terms are better choices for people to fly kites?
①The Spring Equinox ②Clear and Bright ③Grain Rain ④Start of Summer
A. ①② B. ②③ C. ①④ D. ②④
12. Why do people in southern China drink tea during Grain Rain?
A. Because it can bring great wealth. B. Because it is the best time to drink tea.
C. Because it can get rid of all the diseases. D. Because it brings good health and prevents bad luck.
13. How does the weather change during Start of Summer according to the passage?
A. It will be windier and foggier. B. There will be a lot of rain.
C. It will be hotter and hotter. D. There will be a lot of snow.
B
I saw in my rearview mirror that a large SUV headed straight for my car at a breakneck speed. My heart and mind started racing, and panic (恐慌)instantly set in.
With fear in my voice, I started saying out loud, “Oh my goodness! Oh my goodness!”, making my friend who was with me immediately scared and puzzled. I was sure that within mere seconds, we were going to be knocked from behind by a careless vehicle clearly going over 100 miles per hour in heavy traffic.
Unable to change lanes or speed up because of cars on all sides, I just prepared myself for the impact. But thank goodness, the driver missed hitting my car by an inch as he went into the lane beside me, nearly hitting another vehicle, tires screeching (刺耳声) and burning, filling the air with clouds of smoke. He continued dashing in and out of traffic, causing more near-collisions, and then quickly disappeared into the distance.
As I sat there surprised, loosening my fingers from the steering wheel, my friend and I began to talk about what if we had been hit. How life could have been changed in an instant (瞬间) or even ended.
I thought about my precious children, my husband, my family and things undone. I wondered whether I would have regrets if that had been my last day. I began to consider if I was truly enjoying and embracing (拥抱) my life, even if it hadn’t turned out the way I thought it would or should. I couldn’t help but ask myself if I was by accident taking for granted the pure blessing of waking up every morning and being given another day, and if I was spending time being unhappy because of difficult circumstances instead of living with joy.
14. Why was the author stuck in panic?
A. The road was too crowded. B. An accident might happen.
C. She drove at too high a speed. D. A rude driver attacked her.
15. How did the author deal with the dangerous situation?
A. She sped up her car. B. She managed to drive into another lane.
C. She gave others a warning. D. She could do nothing but wait for the impact.
16. What does the underlined word “it” in the last paragraph refer to?
A. That day. B. The author’s life.
C. That car. D. The author’s family.
17. What does the author mainly want to tell us according to the passage?
A. Behind bad luck comes good luck. B. Love me, love my dog.
C. Live in the present moment. D. Value our friends and family.
C
As children, many of us dreamed of being treasure hunters when we grew up. Few of us grow up to do this work, and those who do are often professional archeologists (考古学家). And then there’s Lara Maiklem, an editor, who has taken up the hobby of mudlarking, which is a kind of treasure finding, done along the banks of rivers.
Maiklem’s idea of “treasure” is self-defined. She says she was blessed with a mother who really taught her to look, and to take pleasure in the small things around her. So for her, treasure is anything extraordinary. “Finding dry snakeskin in the long grass, or broken china in the garden bed is like finding treasure to me,” she says.
About 20 years ago, Maiklem moved to London, but having grown up on a farm, she missed the peace of the countryside. Then, one day, she found herself at the top of a set of rickety (摇晃的) wooden steps looking down at the Thames’s foreshore. “The tide (潮) was low and the riverbed was exposed. I went down and started to look about. That day I found a short piece of clay pipe stem and reasoned that there was probably more, so I went back on another low tide and I found some china. Then I found myself going there regularly,” she says.
Maiklem says after she’s photographed and researched what she finds, she often takes objects back to the foreshore of the river. “What I do keep is limited to things I don’t already have, or better examples of things I already have,” she says.
In today’s busy, stressful world, arguably the best thing treasure mudlarkers take home is the relaxation and peace of mind found in the work of mudlarking. “You’ re doing a search, yet not really doing anything so you can let your brain wander. I mudlark for 5-6 hours, which sounds like a long time, but the time flies. By the time I leave the foreshore the river has taken away my problems, and that’s more valuable than treasure,” says Maiklem.
18. What does “treasure” mean to Maiklem?
A. Anything she believes special.
B. Anything her mother places around her.
C. Anything she and her mother take pleasure in.
D. Anything archeologists consider extraordinary.
19. What does Paragraph 3 mainly talk about?
A. The best place for mudlarking.
B. The typical way of mudlarking.
C. How Maiklem got into mudlarking.
D. What mudlarking brought for Maiklem.
20. How does Maiklem usually deal with the things she finds?
A. She cleans them carefully.
B. She gives them to photographers.
C. She classifies them as limited editions.
D. She gets them back to their original places.
21. What is the greatest fun of mudlarking for Maiklem?
A. Finding special and valuable things.
B. Searching for solutions to problems.
C. Enjoying the beauty of the foreshore.
D Gaining a peaceful state of mind.
D
ChatGPT, a smart AI chatbot (聊天机器人)tool, has swept the education world in the past months. According to a US survey of more than 1,000 students, over 89 percent of them have used ChatGPT to help with their homework.
Developed by US company Open AI, ChatGPT is a powerful tool. You can ask it to write stories and emails, create recipes, translate languages, and answer all kinds of questions. Some schools in the US, Australia and France have banned (禁止) the use of ChatGPT. In the US, for example, New York City public schools banned students and teachers from using ChatGPT on the district’s networks and devices, CNN reported.
The move comes out of worries that the tool could make it easier for students to cheat on homework. Some also worry that ChatGPT could be used to spread inaccurate (不准确的) information.
“It does not build critical-thinking and problem-solving skills, which are necessary for academic and lifelong success, “said Jenna Lyle, the deputy press secretary of the New York City Department of Education.
Besides bans, teachers are making changes to their classes to stop the use of ChatGPT. Some college teachers in the US try to add more speaking exams and handwritten papers instead of typed ones, The New York Times reported.
However, not all educators say “no” to ChatGPT. Some Canadian universities are drafting (起草) policies on its use, for both students and teachers. They have no plans to completely ban the tool so far.
Bhaskar Vira, pro-vice-chancellor for education at the University of Cambridge in the UK, said that bans on AI software like ChatGPT are not wise. “We have to know that AI is a tool people will use, ”he told Varsity, the school newspaper of the university. What we need to do is “change our learning, teaching and examinations“. That way, we can “have honesty while recognizing the use of the tool”.
22. Some schools in the US stopped the students from using ChatGPT because ________.
A. ChatGPT helps students do homework and cheat teachers
B. ChatGPT seldom provides correct information
C. ChatGPT takes up most of the district’s networks
D. ChatGPT takes the place of teachers
23. Jenna Lyle thinks that ________.
A. ChatGPT is necessary for academic and lifelong success
B. ChatGPT is not good for developing students’ minds
C ChatGPT is the smartest AI chatbot tool at present
D. ChatGPT might offer the wrong information
24. What do the educators in the US do to avoid the use of ChatGPT?
a. They give students more oral exams.
b. They leave more handwritten assignments.
c. They suggest laws to ban the use of ChatGPT.
d. They learn to recognize papers written by ChatGPT.
A. ab B. ac C. bc D. bd
25. Which of the following could be the best title for the passage?
A. ChatGPT: What Makes Students Lazy B. ChatGPT: A Complete Ban is A Must
C. ChatGPT: A Useful Tool in Education D. ChatGPT: Facing Worry and Welcome

I saw in my rearview mirror that a large SUV headed straight for my car at a breakneck speed. My heart and mind started racing, and panic (恐慌)instantly set in.
With fear in my voice, I started saying out loud, “Oh my goodness! Oh my goodness!”, making my friend who was with me immediately scared and puzzled. I was sure that within mere seconds, we were going to be knocked from behind by a careless vehicle clearly going over 100 miles per hour in heavy traffic.
Unable to change lanes or speed up because of cars on all sides, I just prepared myself for the impact. But thank goodness, the driver missed hitting my car by an inch as he went into the lane beside me, nearly hitting another vehicle, tires screeching (刺耳声) and burning, filling the air with clouds of smoke. He continued dashing in and out of traffic, causing more near-collisions, and then quickly disappeared into the distance.
As I sat there surprised, loosening my fingers from the steering wheel, my friend and I began to talk about what if we had been hit. How life could have been changed in an instant (瞬间) or even ended.
I thought about my precious children, my husband, my family and things undone. I wondered whether I would have regrets if that had been my last day. I began to consider if I was truly enjoying and embracing (拥抱) my life, even if it hadn’t turned out the way I thought it would or should. I couldn’t help but ask myself if I was by accident taking for granted the pure blessing of waking up every morning and being given another day, and if I was spending time being unhappy because of difficult circumstances instead of living with joy.
14. Why was the author stuck in panic?

15. How did the author deal with the dangerous situation?

【17题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文,尤其是最后一段中的“I couldn’t help but ask myself if I was by accident taking for granted the pure blessing of waking up every morning and being given another day, and if I was spending time being unhappy because of difficult circumstances instead of living with joy.(我不禁问自己,我是否在不经意间把每天早上醒来、又拥有新的一天这份纯粹的恩赐当成了理所当然,是否因为境遇不顺就郁郁寡欢,而没有快乐地生活)”可知,作者主要想告诉我们要珍惜当下、活在当下。故选C项。

As children, many of us dreamed of being treasure hunters when we grew up. Few of us grow up to do this work, and those who do are often professional archeologists (考古学家). And then there’s Lara Maiklem, an editor, who has taken up the hobby of mudlarking, which is a kind of treasure finding, done along the banks of rivers.
Maiklem’s idea of “treasure” is self-defined. She says she was blessed with a mother who really taught her to look, and to take pleasure in the small things around her. So for her, treasure is anything extraordinary. “Finding dry snakeskin in the long grass, or broken china in the garden bed is like finding treasure to me,” she says.
About 20 years ago, Maiklem moved to London, but having grown up on a farm, she missed the peace of the countryside. Then, one day, she found herself at the top of a set of rickety (摇晃的) wooden steps looking down at the Thames’s foreshore. “The tide (潮) was low and the riverbed was exposed. I went down and started to look about. That day I found a short piece of clay pipe stem and reasoned that there was probably more, so I went back on another low tide and I found some china. Then I found myself going there regularly,” she says.
Maiklem says after she’s photographed and researched what she finds, she often takes objects back to the foreshore of the river. “What I do keep is limited to things I don’t already have, or better examples of things I already have,” she says.
In today’s busy, stressful world, arguably the best thing treasure mudlarkers take home is the relaxation and peace of mind found in the work of mudlarking. “You’ re doing a search, yet not really doing anything so you can let your brain wander. I mudlark for 5-6 hours, which sounds like a long time, but the time flies. By the time I leave the foreshore the river has taken away my problems, and that’s more valuable than treasure,” says Maiklem.
18. What does “treasure” mean to Maiklem?
A. Anything she believes special.
B. Anything her mother places around her.
C. Anything she and her mother take pleasure in.
D. Anything archeologists consider extraordinary.
19. What does Paragraph 3 mainly talk about?
A. The best place for mudlarking.
B. The typical way of mudlarking.
C. How Maiklem got into mudlarking.
D. What mudlarking brought for Maiklem.
20. How does Maiklem usually deal with the things she finds?
A. She cleans them carefully.
B. She gives them to photographers.
C. She classifies them as limited editions.
D. She gets them back to their original places.
21. What is the greatest fun of mudlarking for Maiklem?
A. Finding special and valuable things.
B. Searching for solutions to problems.
C. Enjoying the beauty of the foreshore.
D. Gaining a peaceful state of mind.
【答案】18 A 19. C 20. D 21. D
【解析】
【分析】本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。文章主要讲述了Maiklem有一个爱好,就是在河岸边寻找宝藏,那能使她获得平静的心态。
【18题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第二段“So for her, treasure is anything extraordinary.(所以对她来说,宝藏是不寻常的)”可推知,对Maiklem来说,宝藏意味着任何她认为特别的东西。故选A项。
【19题详解】
主旨大意题。根据文章第三段“The tide was low and the riverbed was exposed. I went down and started to look about.(潮水低,河床裸露。我下去四处看看)”以及第三段主要内容可知,该段讲了Maiklem逐渐养成了看潮的习惯,并发现了其中奥秘。故选C项。
【20题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第四段“Maiklem says after she’s photographed and researched what she finds, she often takes objects back to the foreshore of the river.(Maiklem说,在她拍摄和研究了自己的发现后,她经常把物体带回河边)”可知,Maiklem把物品放回原处。故选D项。
【21题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第五段“In today’s busy, stressful world, arguably the best thing treasure mudlarkers take home is the relaxation and peace of mind found in the work of mudlarking.(在今天这个忙碌、紧张的世界里,可以说,清沟工带回家的最好的东西就是在清沟工作中找到的放松和心灵的平静)” 可知,Maiklem最大的乐趣就是获得平静的心态。故选D项。

ChatGPT, a smart AI chatbot (聊天机器人)tool, has swept the education world in the past months. According to a US survey of more than 1,000 students, over 89 percent of them have used ChatGPT to help with their homework.
Developed by US company Open AI, ChatGPT is a powerful tool. You can ask it to write stories and emails, create recipes, translate languages, and answer all kinds of questions. Some schools in the US, Australia and France have banned (禁止) the use of ChatGPT. In the US, for example, New York City public schools banned students and teachers from using ChatGPT on the district’s networks and devices, CNN reported.
The move comes out of worries that the tool could make it easier for students to cheat on homework. Some also worry that ChatGPT could be used to spread inaccurate (不准确的) information.
“It does not build critical-thinking and problem-solving skills, which are necessary for academic and lifelong success, “said Jenna Lyle, the deputy press secretary of the New York City Department of Education.
Besides bans, teachers are making changes to their classes to stop the use of ChatGPT. Some college teachers in the US try to add more speaking exams and handwritten papers instead of typed ones, The New York Times reported.
However, not all educators say “no” to ChatGPT. Some Canadian universities are drafting (起草) policies on its use, for both students and teachers. They have no plans to completely ban the tool so far.
Bhaskar Vira, pro-vice-chancellor for education at the University of Cambridge in the UK, said that bans on AI software like ChatGPT are not wise. “We have to know that AI is a tool people will use, ”he told Varsity, the school newspaper of the university. What we need to do is “change our learning, teaching and examinations“. That way, we can “have honesty while recognizing the use of the tool”.
22. Some schools in the US stopped the students from using ChatGPT because ________.
A ChatGPT helps students do homework and cheat teachers
B. ChatGPT seldom provides correct information
C. ChatGPT takes up most of the district’s networks
D. ChatGPT takes the place of teachers
23. Jenna Lyle thinks that ________.
A. ChatGPT is necessary for academic and lifelong success
B. ChatGPT is not good for developing students’ minds
C. ChatGPT is the smartest AI chatbot tool at present
D. ChatGPT might offer the wrong information
24. What do the educators in the US do to avoid the use of ChatGPT?
a. They give students more oral exams.
b. They leave more handwritten assignments.
c. They suggest laws to ban the use of ChatGPT.
d. They learn to recognize papers written by ChatGPT.
A. ab B. ac C. bc D. bd
25. Which of the following could be the best title for the passage?
A ChatGPT: What Makes Students Lazy B. ChatGPT: A Complete Ban is A Must
C. ChatGPT: A Useful Tool in Education D. ChatGPT: Facing Worry and Welcome
【答案】22. A 23. B 24. A 25. D
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了ChatGPT席卷教育界,超89%美国学生用其辅助作业,部分学校因作弊和错误信息担忧而禁止,也有学校探索合理使用。
【22题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“The move comes out of worries that the tool could make it easier for students to cheat on homework.(这一举措是出于对这种工具可能导致学生在作业上作弊的担忧而做出的)”可知,美国一些学校禁止使用ChatGPT是因为担心学生可能会用它在学习上作弊。故选A。
【23题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段““It does not build critical-thinking and problem-solving skills, which are necessary for academic and lifelong success, “said Jenna Lyle, the deputy press secretary of the New York City Department of Education.(纽约市教育局的副新闻秘书詹娜·莱尔表示:“这并不能培养出批判性思维和解决问题的能力,而这些能力对于学生的学业成就以及一生的成功都是至关重要的。”)”可推知,Jenna Lyle认为使用 ChatGPT 不利于培养学生的思维能力。故选B。
【24题详解】
细节理解题。根据倒数第三段“Some college teachers in the US try to add more speaking exams and handwritten papers instead of typed ones, The New York Times reported.(据《纽约时报》报道,美国的一些大学教师试图增加口语考试和手写作业的比重,而减少打印作业的占比)”可知,美国的教育工作者们会采取增加口试的次数、布置更多手写作业来避免使用ChatGPT。故选A。
【25题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段“ChatGPT, a smart AI chatbot (聊天机器人)tool, has swept the education world in the past months. According to a US survey of more than 1,000 students, over 89 percent of them have used ChatGPT to help with their homework.(ChatGPT,一款智能的人工智能聊天机器人工具,在过去几个月里迅速在教育领域风靡起来。根据一项针对超过1000名学生的美国调查,超过89%的学生曾使用ChatGPT来辅助完成作业)”结合主要介绍了ChatGPT席卷教育界,超89%美国学生用其辅助作业,部分学校因作弊和错误信息担忧而禁止,也有学校探索合理使用。由此可知,D选项“ChatGPT:面对忧虑与欢迎”最符合文章标题。故选D。

【解析】
【分析】这是一篇说明文。旨在告知读者如何有效的制止网络欺凌。
【26题详解】
上文“If you are being bullied at school you can usually get away from the bullies when you are at home.”说明校园欺凌会因为回家不呆在学校而远离。后文“Cyber bullying can be done anonymously(匿名)…You might feel like it will never end.”说明网络欺凌可以是匿名的,你可能会感觉它永无休止。故可推断和校园欺凌不一样的是,网络欺凌不会消失。C项“But with cyber bullying there is no way out.(但网络欺凌无处可逃)”以“但是”作为转折,说网络欺凌不会消失符合前后文的语境。故选C。
【27题详解】
上文“You might feel like it will never end.”说明“你”可能感觉网络欺凌永无止境。后文“We want you to know there are things you can do to make it stop.”指出“你”可以做一些事来终止网络欺凌。故可推测出空格处为承上启下的转折句。D项“No one has the right to make you feel this way.(没人有权让你有这样的感觉)”与上文过渡自然,this way指代的就是上文的it will never end。故选D。
【28题详解】
上文“You shouldn't have to deal with bullying alone, so think about talking to someone you trust like a parent, carer or teacher.”说明“你”不要独自应对网络欺凌,要找如父母、看护人、老师等你信任的人诉说。选项A“They can be there to help you.”指出这些人会帮助你。代词they指代上文的someone you trust,连贯自然。故选A。
【29题详解】
上文“It is a good idea to keep a copy of the abusive (辱骂的) texts, emails, comments or messages that you receive and record the date and time they were sent.”提供了一个好办法:把辱骂的文本、邮件、评论、信息等的副本保留下来,并记录好他们发送过来的时间。但为什么这样做好呢?选项E“Keeping records can be useful when it comes to reporting the bullying.”指出了这样做的好处在于如果要报道这一欺凌事件时,这些记录会起作用。故选E。
【30题详解】
上文“.In addition, you must never give out any personal details on the Internet.”指出你不能把自己的个人信息细节泄露在网络上。选项G“Such information includes your real name, address, age or phone number.”指出上文说的个人信息包含真实姓名、地址、年龄和电话号码,前后过渡自然。故选G。

【答案】范文
Some of us regularly get pocket money while others do not. When it comes to this topic, my opinions are listed as follows.
I think students should have some pocket money because sometimes we need to buy some necessities and develop the skill of managing money as well.
I get my pocket money from my parents and grandparents, a small part of which is spent on snacks. School things cost money, too. For example, I often buy books, pens and exercise-books.
As far as I’m concerned, it is really important to make good use of the money. It’s also necessary to save some money for something urgent. If there are some people who need my help, I’m ready to give them a hand.
