159‘shallowing hypothesis(假说)'.According to this theory,people
approach digital texts with a mindset suited to social media,which
are often not so serious,and devote less mental effort than when
they are reading print..(但同样重要的是精神层面。阅读研究
人员提出了一个名为‘shallowing hypothesis'的理论。根据这
一理论,人们以适合社交媒体的心态接触数字文本,这些文本
通常不那么严肃,与阅读印刷品时相比,投入的精神努力也更
少。)”可知,shallowing hypothesis假设读者在阅读数字文本时
会持有一种轻松的心态,不会像阅读纸质书籍那样投入太多
的心理努力。故选A。
7.A细节理解题。根据第五段“Audio(音频)and video can
feel more engaging than text,and so university teachers
increasingly tum to these technologies-say,assigning an online
talk instead of an article by the same person.(音频和视频可能
比文本更具吸引力,因此大学教师越来越多地转向这些技术
例如分配在线讲座而不是同一作者的文章。)”可知,音频和
视频比文本更能吸引学生的注意力,所以大学教师越来越多
地使用这些技术。故选A。
8.C推理判断题。根据最后一段“Digital texts,audio and video
all have educational roles,especially when providing resources not
available in print.However,for maximizing learning where mental
focus and reflection are called for,educators shouldn't assume all
media are the same,even when they contain identical words.
字文本、音频和视频都具有教育作用,尤其是在提供印刷品中
无法获得的资源时。然而,为了在需要精神集中和反思的情
况下最大限度地学习,教育工作者不应假定所有媒体都是相
同的,即使它们包含相同的单词。)”可知,尽管数字文本、音频
和视频在教育中有一定作用,但当需要精神集中和反思以最
大化学习时,教育者不应假定所有媒体都是相同的,即使它们
包含相同的单词。这表明作者认为纸质文本在教育中的作用
仍然不可替代,因此暗示纸质文本在教育中的重要性。故
选C。
Ⅱ.文章大意:这是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了如何避免过度
承诺带来的压力和问题。
L.D根据上文“Overcommitment happens when you decide to do
more things than you realistically have time to do.(当你决定做
的事情比你实际有时间做的要多的时候,过度承诺就发生
了。)”和下文“Your quality of life also suffers because
overcommitment leaves you less time to take care of yourself.
的生活质量也会受到影响,因为过度承诺会让你照顾自己的
时间减少。)”可知,空处提到了过度承诺带来的不利影响。D
项:When this happens,.the quality of your work suffers.(当这种
情况发生时,你的工作质量就会受到影响。)符合语境。故
选D。
2.E根据上文“The total amount of time you have each day equals
24 hours minus (the time you need for basic wellness
activities.(你每天的总时间等于24小时减去你需要的基本健
康活动的时间。)”可知,空处提到了一些基本健康活动。E
项:These include things like sleeping,eating and showering.(这
些包括睡觉、吃饭和洗澡。)符合语境。故选E。
3.G根据下文“Schedule times for everything you need to do-
including taking care of yourself.But you don't have to fill every
blank space.(为你需要做的每件事安排时间一一包括照顾自
己。但你不需要填满所有的空白。)”可知,空处提到了时间表
有助于避免过度承诺。G项:One tool that may be helpful in
avoiding overcommitment is a calendar.(一个可能有助于避免
过度承诺的工具是日历。)符合语境。故选G。
4.F根据上文“It's also worth looking at your current
commitments.Do your commitments actually match your
priorities?(这也值得看看你现在的承诺。你的承诺真的符
-23
合你优先考虑的事情吗?)”可知,空处提出建议适当地放弃
一些承诺或者交给别人去做。F项:Could you give up some of
them or pass them off to other people?(你能不能放弃一些或
者把它们传递给其他人?)符合语境。故选F。
5.B根据下文“That's because my first instinct((本能反应)is
usually to say yes,even if I don't really have time.(这是因为我
的第一反应通常是同意,即使我真的没有时间。)”可知,空处
与下文形成转折关系,说明自己会要求有思考的时间。B项:
I always ask for some time to think.(我总是要求一些时间去思
考。)符合语境。故选B。

Ⅳ.文章大意:这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了有关欧洲文艺复兴
的情况。
1.expresses考查主谓一致和时态。分析句子结构可知,前面的
which引导定语从句,指代先行词one work,故从句的谓语动
词要用单数形式;且此处表示客观事实,应用一般现在时。故
填expresses
2.tobe考查非谓语动词。It's believed to be..意为“人们相
信…”,因此要用动词不定式。故填tobe。
3.Painted考查非谓语动词。根据by可知,paint与逻辑主语
the Mona Lisa之间是逻辑上的动宾关系,故用动词-ed形式作
状语。故填Painted。
4.mysterious
考查形容词。修饰后面的名词,作定语,故填
mysterious
5.of/about考查介词。短语hear of/about是固定搭配,意为
“听说”。故填of/about。
6.which/hat考查定语从句的关系词。分析句子成分可知,此
处是which/that引导限定性定语从句,先行词是a French
word,且which/hat在从句中作主语,故填which/that。
7.the考查冠词。根据19th可知,序数词前面一般用定冠词
the。故填theo
8.was used考查时态和语态。根据上文可知此处要用一般过
去时,且主语The word与use之间是被动关系,要用被动语
态。故填was used。
9.beginning考查名词。根据空前的the和空后的of可知,此处
应用名词形式。beginning意为“(事件、故事、一段时间等的)
开始,开端”。故填beginning。
lO.rapidly考查副词。此处修饰动词spread要用副词形式。
故填rapidly
V.文章大意:这是一篇记叙文。作者讲述了自己爱马及与一匹
马的故事。
1.B考查动词词义辨析。句意:我经常想象自己拥有自己的
马。A.enjoyed喜欢,享受;B.pictured想象;C.appreciated欣
赏:感激;D.found发现。根据上文“Whatever makes you fall in
love with horses happened to me..(无论什么让你爱上马的原因
都发生在我身上了。)”可知作者爱马,及下文“After taking
riding lessons for a year,I decided to buy a horse and Dad agreed
(学了一年的骑马课后,我决定买一匹马,爸爸同意了)”可知
我爱马并总想象(pictured)拥有自己的一匹马,并且最终决定

3.D考查名词词义辨析。句意:我工作攒了100美元,那时候
真是一笔财富。A.deal交易;B.prize奖项;C.bonus红利奖
励:D.fortune运气,财富。该空所填词应该是lO0 dollars的同
位语,在我小时候那个年代,l00美元是一大笔钱(a fortune)。
故选D项。
4.A考查副词词义辨析。句意:事实上,200美元对一匹马来
说不算多。A.Actually事实上;B.Strangely奇怪地;
C.Alternatively另外地;D.Totally总共。在我眼里,2O0美元算
得上一大笔钱,可是实际上(actually),对于买一匹马来说还

找一匹马。A.obliged义务的;B.determined坚决的:
C.delighted开心的;D.expected预计的。根据上文“2O0 dollars

不太够的)”可知,我挣到100美元,爸爸给了100美元。我手
里有200美元,但是200美元想买一匹马不够多,但是我不死
心还是坚决(determined)要想办法买。故选B项。

的马,它受过虐待,对陌生人有一种不信任。A.customers顾

看着我。A.reluctantly不情愿地;B.eagerly急切地;C.sadly悲
伤地;D.cautiously小心翼翼地。根据上文“who had been
abused and had a mistrust of...”可知,这匹马对陌生人不信
任,此时我对它来说也是陌生人,所以我靠近它时,它会提防
我,小心翼翼地(cautiously)看着我。故选D项。
9.C考查名词词义辨析。句意:渐渐地,我们变得形影不离,虽
然它年龄大了,却也变得强壮而充满活力。A.illness疾病;
B.size尺寸,规模;C.age年龄;D.disability残疾。上文“...a
20-year-old horse..”提到说这是一匹20岁的马,应该是很老

10.B考查名词词义辨析。句意:兽医说它得了癌症,建议人道
地把它安乐死。A.test检测;B.sleep睡觉:C.training训练:

家Alessandro在工作之外,自己种植水果和蔬菜,并且在
YouTube经营自己的SpicyMoustache,分享城市园艺技巧,并鼓
励其他人创建城市绿地。
l.D推理判断题。根据文章第一段“This green-thumbed Italian
who moved to London six years ago has grown so many vegetables
during lockdown that he hasn't been to the grocery store for any in
nine months.(这位精通园艺的意大利人六年前搬到伦敦,在
封锁期间种植了太多蔬菜,以至于他九个月都没去杂货店买
过菜。)”可知,Alessandro九个月都不用去买菜,吃自己种植
的蔬菜和水果,由此推断,他擅长种植蔬菜和水果,故选D。
2.D
细节理解题。根据文章第三段“Eager to be environmental,
Alessandro's crops are 100%organic:He uses wild nettle(荨庥)
from a park for pest control,and the fallen leaves to make
fertilizer.(出于环保的考虑,Alessandro的作物是l0O%有机的:
他使用公园里的野荨麻来控制害虫,落叶用来制造肥料。)”可
知,Alessandro种植的蔬菜和水果没有农药和化肥,是绿色健康
的,故选D。
3.A推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“He now runs his own
YouTube channel Spicy Moustache,sharing urban gardening tips
and encouraging others to create urban green spaces.(他现在经
营着自己的YouTube频道Spicy Moustache,分享城市园艺技
巧,并鼓励其他人创建城市绿地。)”可知,他用视频来分享自
己的园艺技巧,并鼓励其他人也去种植蔬菜和水果,打造城市
绿地,进而推断这样的视频一定是鼓舞人心的,故选A。
