In recent years, drones (无人机) have become more and more popular. These small flying machines, which can be controlled by remote controls (遥控器), are now more than just toys for drone lovers. They are now playing important roles in many areas of our daily lives, making work and life easier. For example, drones are used for more than 50% of the work in building roads and bridges. In the energy business, the use of the drones reaches about 45%. On large farms, about one third of them use drones to check on their crops (庄稼).
One of the most common uses of drones is in delivery (快递) services. Big companies like SF Express and JD.com have tested drone delivery for a long time. Instead of having delivery workers travel by bike or car, drones can not only carry small packages (such as books, snacks, and even medicine) to people’s homes quickly but also reach places that are difficult for cars to get to. This is especially useful in areas with heavy traffic, as drones can fly over cars and reach people’s homes faster.
Drones also bring great benefits to farmers. Farmers use drones to check their crops. With special cameras, drones can fly over large fields and take clear pictures. By looking at these pictures, farmers can tell if their crops are healthy, if they need more water. Or if there are pests (害虫), so that they can take action right away to protect their plants. This helps farmers save a lot of time and energy instead of walking across the fields themselves.
Besides, drones are useful in search and rescue work. When someone gets lost in the mountains or a forest, rescuers (救援者) can use drones to look for them. Because drones can cover large areas quickly and send real-time videos back to rescuers, it becomes much easier to find the lost person, especially in dangerous or hard-to-reach places.
However, there are also rules for using drones. For example, drones cannot fly near airports (because they may cause problems for planes) and must not be used to take photos of other people’s houses without asking. Following these rules helps keep everyone safe and protects people’s personal privacy.
As drones are helpful in so many ways, they are sure to become even more important in our daily lives in the future.
11. How is Paragraph 1 developed?
A. By listing numbers. B. By telling stories.
C. By comparing things. D. By giving reasons.
12. Why is drone delivery helpful in areas with heavy traffic?
A. Drones are cheaper than delivery cars. B. Drones don’t need any energy to fly.
C. Drones can carry very large packages. D. Drones can fly over cars and save time.
13. What can we learn from paragraph 3?
A. Drones can take pictures of farmers. B. Farmers often use drones to plant crops.
C. Drones make farming more efficient. D. Drones can replace farmers soon.
14. In which situation can drones be helpful according to the text?
A Cleaning windows of tall buildings. B. Finding a lost person in a forest.
C. Carrying heavy packages in a factory. D. Taking pictures of tall buildings.
15. What is the purpose (目的) of the text?
A. To tell readers the popularity of drones.
B. To introduce the uses of drones in daily life.
C. To explain the reasons why drones are expensive.
D. To describe the history and development of drones.
【答案】11. A 12. D 13. C 14. B 15. B

For many teenagers and adults, having a cup of hot coffee right after getting out of bed is a common way to start a busy day. It feels like a small but important daily habit that helps them wake up quickly. However, a report from ASAP Science says otherwise. It says that if we drink coffee soon after we get up—a common habit for many—it might actually be the worst time. A fact that surprises many people.
When we wake up, our bodies start to make cortisol (皮质醇). Cortisol can help us think clearly, stay focused, and react quickly to things around us. The cortisol levels (水平) rise after we wake and climb to their highest in about an hour. Drinking coffee during this time brings two problems: first, it may lead our bodies to produce less cortisol, which is not good for our health; second, the high cortisol levels make coffee less helpful, making us feel less energetic than expected. And that’s why some of us drink more and more coffee to feel awake.
So, when is the best time to enjoy a cup of coffee? The report suggests that we should wait until our cortisol levels start to drop. For most people, cortisol is at its highest between 8 a.m. and 9 a.m., then again between noon and 1 p.m., with a third high time happening around 7 p.m., which are the worst times to drink coffee. So if you want to have coffee, enjoy it after these times, and this popular drink will benefit you more.
Three people read this interesting report and share their opinions.
Jim, a coffee lover, said, “The best time to drink coffee is. whenever you want it—habits and personal choices are more important than strict rules.”
Sarah joked, “I often wake up after I drink coffee.”
Charlie said, “If someone needs a science report to tell them when to drink coffee, that seems a little sad.”
16. Why is it not good to drink coffee right after getting up?
A. Cortisol can help us think clearly.
B. High cortisol levels make coffee less useful.
C. Coffee can make cortisol levels higher.
D. Cortisol will make people feel sleepy.
17. What does the underlined word “otherwise” mean in paragraph 1?
A. Differently. B. Similarly. C. Correctly. D. Suddenly.
18. Which is a good time for coffee, according to the text?
(Picture: The changing levels of cortisol during a day)
A. Point A. B. Point B. C. Point C. D. Point D.
19. What do the three people think of the report?
A. They think it’s helpful. B. They want to follow it.
C. They disagree with it. D. They benefit from it.
20. What can be a suitable title for the text?
A. Bodies Make Less Cortisol B. A Popular Drink in the World
C. Different Opinions about Coffee D. The Best Time to Drink Coffee
【答案】16. B 17. A 18. D 19. C 20. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要依据科学报告,解释了为何刚起床后不是喝咖啡的最佳时机(皮质醇水平高会降低咖啡提神效果),并建议在皮质醇水平下降后再饮用。
【16题详解】
细节理解题。根据第2段“the high cortisol levels make coffee less helpful, making us feel less energetic than expected.”可知,高皮质醇水平会使咖啡的效用降低。故选B。
【17题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第1段“having a cup of hot coffee right after getting out of bed is a common way... However, a report from Asap Science says otherwise.”可知,报告的观点与“起床后立刻喝咖啡是常见做法”这一普遍认知“不同”。“otherwise”在这里表示“不同地”的意思。故选A。
【18题详解】
推理判断题。根据第3段“The report suggests that we should wait until our cortisol levels start to drop.”以及“So if you want to have coffee, enjoy it after these times, and this popular drink will benefit you more.”并结合图片信息(皮质醇水平在午夜至清晨较高,在中午和下午晚些时候达到峰值后下降)可知,喝咖啡的好时机应选在皮质醇水平开始下降的点。根据图片标注,Point D(PM时段,在皮质醇水平从午间峰值回落后)可能是一个合适的时间。故选D。
【19题详解】
推理判断题。根据三人分享的观点:吉姆认为“想喝就喝”,习惯比规则重要;莎拉开玩笑说“我经常在喝咖啡后才醒来”;查理说“如果需要科学报告来告诉何时喝咖啡,那有点可悲”。三人的言论均表现出对该报告建议的不以为然或反对。故选C。
【20题详解】
最佳标题题。全文核心是围绕一份科学报告展开,探讨了皮质醇水平与咖啡提神效果的关系,并据此提出了喝咖啡的最佳时间建议。因此,“喝咖啡的最佳时间”最适合作为标题。故选D。

Inner communication is just like a secret conversation happening inside us.”可知,本段在列举内在沟通的各种形式后,对其进行了比喻总结。空白处位于列举和总结之间,应是对这些列举项的共同特征进行说明。G选项“这些活动发生在我们脑海中,我们并不会说出来。”符合语境,它解释了为何这些看似不同的活动(阅读、思考、计划等)都属于“内在沟通”,因为它们都是内部的、非言语的思维过程。故选G。
【23题详解】
根据第3段“Inner communication plays a role in our lives. It allows you to think about your own values and make it clear who you are…. When you know what you want, you can get on with yourself better.”可知,本段阐述内在沟通如何帮助我们认识自我。空白处位于阐述其作用(思考价值观、认清自我)和结果(更好地与自己相处)之间,应是对这种作用本质的概括。C选项“这意味着它能让你更好地了解自己。”符合语境,其中“这意味着”指代前文“思考价值观、认清自我”等具体作用,将其概括为“更好地了解自己”这一核心益处。故选C。
【24题详解】
根据第3段“…inner communication helps keep an eye on your thoughts and realize your emotional state…. And then you will try to cheer up and let them go.”可知,本句指出内在沟通有助于觉察情绪,并进而调节情绪。空白处位于“觉察情绪状态”和“努力振作、放下情绪”之间,应是一个具体的例子,说明如何觉察情绪。D选项“例如,你可以及时注意到自己悲伤的情绪。”符合语境,它提供了“觉察情绪状态”的一个具体情形,使论述更生动,并为后文的情绪调节(cheer up)做了铺垫。故选D。
【25题详解】
根据最后一段“…If you understand your thoughts better, you will put yourself in others’ shoes when you talk to or listen to them. Then, you can communicate with people more easily and build good relationships with them.”可知,本段阐述了内在沟通如何帮助改善与他人的沟通。空白处位于段首,应是一个总起句,点明本段核心。F选项“内在沟通也有助于你更好地与他人交谈。”符合语境,它直接点明了本段的主旨,即内在沟通对外部人际沟通的积极影响。故选F。

【46题详解】
句意:我们家的每个人都有机会写下日常生活中美好的事情。根据“Everyone in my family has…chance to write down something good in our daily life.”可知,have a chance to do sth.“有机会做某事”;chance是可数名词单数,且以辅音音素开头,用不定冠词a。故填a。
【47题详解】
句意:去年我们家面临了许多困难和挑战,但这个“美好事物罐”给了我们信心和希望。根据“Our family faced many…and challenges last year”可知,many后必须接可数名词复数形式;difficulty的复数为difficulties。故填difficulties。
【48题详解】
句意:去年我们家面临了许多困难和挑战,但这个“美好事物罐”给了我们信心和希望。根据“Our family faced many…and challenges last year…the ‘Good Things Jug’ gave us confidence and hope.”可知,前半句讲“遭遇困难挑战”,后半句讲“美好事物罐带来信心和希望”,前后是转折逻辑,用but。故填but。
【49题详解】
句意:我妻子昨天给我买了一条新领带,我非常喜欢。根据“yesterday”可知,时间状语yesterday是一般过去时的标志性词,buy的过去式为bought。故填bought。
【50题详解】
句意:上周我病得很重,但在父母的照顾下,我现在感觉好多了,我非常感激他们的爱。根据“I was…ill”可知,副词修饰形容词,ill是形容词,需用副词修饰;serious的副词为seriously。故填seriously。
【51题详解】
句意:期末考试中,我的数学考了A!我实现了自己的目标。根据“I achieved…goal.”可知,名词goal前需用形容词性物主代词修饰,I的形容词性物主代词为my。故填my。
【52题详解】
句意:生日那天,我女儿给我做了一个生日蛋糕,我是世界上最幸福的妈妈。根据“I’m…mother in the world.”可知,in the world“在世界上”是最高级的标志性提示;happy的最高级为the happiest。故填the happiest。
【53题详解】
句意:我们的“美好事物罐”里充满了爱、希望和幸福。根据“Our ‘Good Things Jug’ is full…love, hope and happiness.”可知,be full of...“充满……”。故填of。
【54题详解】

【55题详解】
句意:如果你今天就打造自己的“美好事物罐”,它会在你未来的生活中产生很大的影响。根据“If you create your ‘Good Things Jug’ today, it…a big difference in your future life.”可知,if引导的条件状语从句,遵循“主将从现”原则,从句用一般现在时,主句用一般将来时;make a big difference“产生很大影响”是固定短语,其将来时为will make a big difference。故填will make。

In recent years, drones (无人机) have become more and more popular. These small flying machines, which can be controlled by remote controls (遥控器), are now more than just toys for drone lovers. They are now playing important roles in many areas of our daily lives, making work and life easier. For example, drones are used for more than 50% of the work in building roads and bridges. In the energy business, the use of the drones reaches about 45%. On large farms, about one third of them use drones to check on their crops (庄稼).
One of the most common uses of drones is in delivery (快递) services. Big companies like SF Express and JD.com have tested drone delivery for a long time. Instead of having delivery workers travel by bike or car, drones can not only carry small packages (such as books, snacks, and even medicine) to people’s homes quickly but also reach places that are difficult for cars to get to. This is especially useful in areas with heavy traffic, as drones can fly over cars and reach people’s homes faster.
Drones also bring great benefits to farmers. Farmers use drones to check their crops. With special cameras, drones can fly over large fields and take clear pictures. By looking at these pictures, farmers can tell if their crops are healthy, if they need more water. Or if there are pests (害虫), so that they can take action right away to protect their plants. This helps farmers save a lot of time and energy instead of walking across the fields themselves.
Besides, drones are useful in search and rescue work. When someone gets lost in the mountains or a forest, rescuers (救援者) can use drones to look for them. Because drones can cover large areas quickly and send real-time videos back to rescuers, it becomes much easier to find the lost person, especially in dangerous or hard-to-reach places.
However, there are also rules for using drones. For example, drones cannot fly near airports (because they may cause problems for planes) and must not be used to take photos of other people’s houses without asking. Following these rules helps keep everyone safe and protects people’s personal privacy.
As drones are helpful in so many ways, they are sure to become even more important in our daily lives in the future.
11. How is Paragraph 1 developed?
A. By listing numbers. B. By telling stories.
C. By comparing things. D. By giving reasons.
12. Why is drone delivery helpful in areas with heavy traffic?
A. Drones are cheaper than delivery cars. B. Drones don’t need any energy to fly.
C. Drones can carry very large packages. D. Drones can fly over cars and save time.
13. What can we learn from paragraph 3?
A. Drones can take pictures of farmers. B. Farmers often use drones to plant crops.
C. Drones make farming more efficient. D. Drones can replace farmers soon.
14. In which situation can drones be helpful according to the text?
A. Cleaning windows of tall buildings. B. Finding a lost person in a forest.
C. Carrying heavy packages in a factory. D. Taking pictures of tall buildings.
15. What is the purpose (目的) of the text?
A. To tell readers the popularity of drones.
B. To introduce the uses of drones in daily life.
C. To explain the reasons why drones are expensive.
D. To describe the history and development of drones.

For many teenagers and adults, having a cup of hot coffee right after getting out of bed is a common way to start a busy day. It feels like a small but important daily habit that helps them wake up quickly. However, a report from ASAP Science says otherwise. It says that if we drink coffee soon after we get up—a common habit for many—it might actually be the worst time. A fact that surprises many people.
When we wake up, our bodies start to make cortisol (皮质醇). Cortisol can help us think clearly, stay focused, and react quickly to things around us. The cortisol levels (水平) rise after we wake and climb to their highest in about an hour. Drinking coffee during this time brings two problems: first, it may lead our bodies to produce less cortisol, which is not good for our health; second, the high cortisol levels make coffee less helpful, making us feel less energetic than expected. And that’s why some of us drink more and more coffee to feel awake.
So, when is the best time to enjoy a cup of coffee? The report suggests that we should wait until our cortisol levels start to drop. For most people, cortisol is at its highest between 8 a.m. and 9 a.m., then again between noon and 1 p.m., with a third high time happening around 7 p.m., which are the worst times to drink coffee. So if you want to have coffee, enjoy it after these times, and this popular drink will benefit you more.
Three people read this interesting report and share their opinions
Jim, a coffee lover, said, “The best time to drink coffee is. whenever you want it—habits and personal choices are more important than strict rules.”
Sarah joked, “I often wake up after I drink coffee.”
Charlie said, “If someone needs a science report to tell them when to drink coffee, that seems a little sad.”
16. Why is it not good to drink coffee right after getting up?
A. Cortisol can help us think clearly.
B. High cortisol levels make coffee less useful.
C. Coffee can make cortisol levels higher.
D. Cortisol will make people feel sleepy.
17. What does the underlined word “otherwise” mean in paragraph 1?
A. Differently. B. Similarly. C. Correctly. D. Suddenly.
18. Which is a good time for coffee, according to the text?
(Picture: The changing levels of cortisol during a day)
A. Point A. B. Point B. C. Point C. D. Point D.
19. What do the three people think of the report?
A. They think it’s helpful. B. They want to follow it.
C. They disagree with it. D. They benefit from it.
20. What can be a suitable title for the text?
