In recent years, scientists have made great progress in exploring Mars’ polar ice caps, which hold important clues about the planet’s past climate and possible life. A team of international scientists 1______ (study) the south polar ice cap of Mars for five years, and they have made some surprising discoveries so far. The scientists used a high-tech radar system on a Mars rover to scan the ice cap, and found a large liquid water lake under the ice, 2______ (make) it the first confirmed liquid water lake on Mars. The lake is about 1.5 kilometers below the ice surface, and its water is extremely salty, 3______ keeps it from freezing in the cold Martian environment. This discovery shows that Mars is not as dry as we thought before, and it raises the possibility of 4______ (find) microbial life on the planet. Scientists have found that the ice cap changes with the Martian seasons, just like the polar ice caps on Earth. But the speed of its change is much 5______ (fast) than that on Earth, which is related to Mars’ thinner atmosphere and shorter seasons. This change has been recorded by the Mars rover, and the data 6______ (collect) so far has helped scientists study Mars’ climate change in depth. To study the ice cap further, scientists plan to send a new Mars rover to the south pole of Mars in 2026. The new rover will be equipped with more advanced equipment to collect ice and water samples. Scientists hope 7______ the new rover can help them find more evidence of water and life on Mars, and unlock the secrets of the planet’s climate change. Space exploration is a long and difficult journey, but every small discovery brings us closer to the truth about the universe. As one of the scientists says, 8______ ______ _____we keep exploring, we will never stop learning about the world beyond Earth. Mars exploration is not only about finding life on the red planet, but also about understanding our own planet better. It also inspires humans to keep moving forward, and to challenge ourselves to reach further 9______ the universe. For humans, the exploration of Mars is a great step, 10______ a small one in the journey of exploring the universe. Section B Directions: Fill in each blank with a proper word chosen from the box. Each word can be used only once. Note that there is one word more than you need. 【原创】题源：New Scientist （https://www.newscientist.com/） Time crystals could be used to build accurate quantum clocks A. manufacture B. precise C. potentially D. detect E. stable F. operate G. application H. unique I. assembly J. phenomenon K. enhance Time crystals are a strange physical 11________ that defies the basic laws of thermodynamics, and new research shows they can be used to make far more accurate quantum clocks. Unlike regular crystals, time crystals change in a repeating pattern over time without any external energy input. Scientists first 12________ the first time crystal in 2016, and since then, research into this 13________ form of matter has advanced rapidly. Quantum clocks, which 14________ based on the quantum properties of atoms, are already the most accurate timekeeping devices in the world, but time crystals could 15________ their precision to an unprecedented level. The key advantage of time crystals is that they remain 16________ even at room temperature, while traditional quantum clock components need to be kept at extremely low temperatures. This makes the 17________ of time crystals in quantum clocks far more practical, as it reduces the need for complex cooling systems. Researchers say the new technology could 18________ quantum clocks that are small enough for everyday use, not just for scientific research in labs. A 19________ quantum clock would have countless uses, from improving satellite navigation to making space exploration more accurate. “Time crystals are 20________ the most promising material for the next generation of quantum clocks,” says a leading physicist in the field. “We are only just beginning to understand the full potential of this matter, and future research will unlock even more surprising uses.” II. Reading Comprehension (21 –35题，每题1分；36 – 50题，每题2分；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. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context. Surveys of office behaviour are not scientific. In a global poll conducted last year by Kickresume, 85% of people said they had experienced a (n) 21 co-worker. So what is it that gets on people’s nerves? The Kickresume survey put credit-stealing top of the list of troublesome colleague behaviour. Another recent poll conducted by BambooHR crowned taking credit for employees’ ideas as the worst 22 trait of all. You get the picture. Grabbing kudos for someone else’s idea makes lots of people angry. Done intentionally and repeatedly, it is not just disturbing but bad for the organization: ideas are hoarded, trust erodes and 23 suffers. A recent paper by Beijing Jiaotong University found that credit-claiming by 24 at a large Chinese manufacturing firm was associated with worse job performance by employees. When something happens a lot and is extremely bothersome, a (n) 25 mechanism is needed. So the next time you hear your brilliant idea coming out of the mouth of a colleague, breathe deeply and remember two things. First, credit-stealing may be less 26 than imagined. Psychologists have long documented a phenomenon called “cryptomnesia” in which people 27 plagiarize (抄袭) the ideas of others. Experiments into cryptomnesia vary but the basic set-up is for participants in a group to be asked to generate ideas to solve a particular problem. They are then told to recall only their own ideas, and to come up with new ideas that do not 28 ones that have already been raised. 29 these instructions, people tend to claim a decent chunk of old ideas as their own, and to copy previous suggestions when raising 30 new ideas. People may steal credit without even realizing it. Second, innovation very 31 takes the form of an entirely new idea; instead, it recombines existing ones. And people often reach the same conclusions 32 . That is the message of “Like”, an entertaining new book by Martin Reeves and Bob Goodman on the 33 of the “like” button. The thumbs-up icon was made common and popular when Facebook adopted it in 2009, but well before then firms like Vimeo, Yelp, Digg. com and FriendFeed had been 34 with ways for users to register an emotional reaction to content. So even if you think of an idea as your own stroke of genius, the reality is likely to be 35 . 21．A．violent B．competing C．promising D．annoying 22．A．managerial B．competitive C．physical D．credible 23．A．economy B．profit C．motivation D．truth 24．A．friends B．executives C．producers D．buyers 25．A．communicating B．copying C．evaluating D．coping 26．A．nasty B．special C．inferior D．welcome 27．A．deliberately B．supposedly C．accidentally D．shamelessly 28．A．counter B．reproduce C．assemble D．support 29．A．On top of B．In case of C．In accordance with D．In spite of 30．A．genuinely B．supposedly C．specifically D．recently 31．A．unfortunately B．rarely C．merely D．typically 32．A．interdependently B．repeatedly C．independently D．collectively 33．A．functions B．models C．resources D．origins 34．A．struggling B．cooperating C．venturing D．experimenting 35．A．distinctive B．different C．obvious D．identical Section B Directions: Read the following three passages. 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) It was a day as Australian as you can get: Sun, waves and surfing at the beach. And then something distinctly un-Australian turned up. Aaron Fowler and a friend were heading back to the parking lot after a day in the waves. “We saw something coming out of the water,” Mr. Fowler, a drywall repairman, said. “We thought it was a sea bird, but then we thought, ‘Oh, that’s way too big,’ and it had a big, long neck and a tail sticking out like a duck. It stood up in the water and waddled straight up to us and just started cleaning itself,” Standing there on the beach in the small town of Denmark in Western Australia on Friday afternoon was a male emperor penguin, about 2,100 miles from where one might expect to find it, in Antarctica. Mr. Fowler had seen plenty of dolphins and other creatures in the waves, including one leopard seal, which is also native to Antarctica, but he never expected a penguin. “We were in shock,” he said. Even someone with years of experience studying penguins was surprised at the sighting. “That crazy young penguin,” said Dee Boersma, a professor of biology at the University of Washington and author of “Penguins: Natural History and Conservation.” “Emperor penguins move around, because they have to be on an ice sheet or a glacier to raise young, and the glaciers are eroding away,” she said. “That’s not unusual. You’ve got to continue to swim until you find food. But this is the furthest north I’ve heard of an emperor penguin.” Record low sea-ice levels in the Antarctic have wreaked havoc (破坏)on the lives of emperor penguins. Penguins have sought new breeding grounds as a result, but normally they stay relatively close to their old homes. The penguin who arrived in Australia did not seem to have been flummoxed too much by its new surroundings. The penguin “seemed completely happy,” Mr. Fowler said. “It was not at all shy. It was very friendly. It was quite happy in our company.” Mr. Fowler alerted the authorities about the newly immigrated Aussie penguin. It was picked up and is being cared for; its rehabilitation is expected to take a few weeks, the Department of Biodiversity, Conservation and Attractions of Western Australia said. “The penguin appeared to be malnourished,” the agency said, “and was removed from the beach to avoid potential threats from dogs, cats, foxes and vehicles.” 36．Why was Dee Boersma, the biology professor, surprised at the sighting of the penguin? A．Because she had never seen a penguin before. B．Because the penguin was in a place far from its usual habitat. C．Because the penguin was swimming in the waves. D．Because the penguin was alone and seemed lost. 37．What is the main reason emperor penguins have to move around to find new breeding grounds? A．To escape from predators. B．To find more food. C．To follow the glaciers that are eroding away. D．To raise their young in safer environments. 38．The underlined sentence in Paragraph 8 means A．The penguin was very nervous in its new environment. B．The penguin was quite shy and unfriendly. C．The penguin adapted well to its new surroundings. D．The penguin was confused and perplexed by its new environment. 39．What is the main idea of the article? A．A surprising encounter with a friendly penguin in Australia. B．The impact of climate change on emperor penguins’habitat. C．The rehabilitation process of a malnourished penguin in Australia. D．The differences between sand and snow for emperor penguins. (B) A good walk through the Peckforton Hills and Castle, Cheshire The Landscape Deep into autumn in the Peckforton Hills, the red sandstone *outcrops* (岩石露头) and mossy old woodland glowed in the golden afternoon light. We had joined a stretch of the Sandstone Trail, which traces Cheshire’s central sandstone *ridge* (山脊). Our goal was a northwards passage of the highest hills on the trail. Climbing the wooded sides of Bickerton Hill brought us to an open lowland area. Restoration work here is reclaiming this precious habitat for rare wildlife. Below the highest point is Mad Allen’s Hole, believed to have been the home of an 18th-century *hermit* (隐士) John Harris. The path then steepened, eventually reaching the trail’s highest point at Raw Head, where a summit looks north over Delamere Forest to Ellesmere Port. Dipping through farmland, we were soon climbing again, this time through beech and oak woodland at Bulkeley Hill. We gathered a bagful of sweet chestnuts before detouring into Higher Burwardsley for lunch at the warmly welcoming Pheasant Inn. The final miles skirted the hills below Stanners Nab and the impressive 19th-century grandeur of Peckforton Castle. The finish of our walk drew near — lofty Beeston Crag topped with the ruins of Beeston Castle. Built in the 1220s by Ranulf de Blondeville, 6th Earl of Chester, it is well worth a visit. Inside is the famous castle well, a possible hiding place of Richard II’s treasure, which drops a dark and dizzying 365ft into the hill. Fact File ·Distance/ Difficulty: 14 miles; moderate; some steep climbs. ·Start: Bickerton Hill car park (SY14 8LN). ·Finish: Beeston Castle (CW6 9TX). ·Getting there: Take Trains to Whitchurch or Chester first. Get on the bus running between the two (not on Sundays) before getting off at Duckington and walking less than a mile to the start. ·Lunch: The Pheasant Inn, Higher Burwardsley. 40．Which of the following route maps correctly illustrates the walking path? A．[Bickerton Hill] → [Raw Head] → [Beeston Castle] → [The Pheasant Inn] B．[Bickerton Hill] → [Bulkeley Hill] → [Beeston Castle] → [Raw Head] C．[Maiden Castle] → [Peckforton Castle] → [Beeston Castle] → [The Pheasant Inn] D．[Bickerton Hill] → [Raw Head] → [The Pheasant Inn] → [Beeston Castle] 41．What is special about Beeston Castle according to the passage? A．It is the highest point of the entire Sandstone Trail. B．It was once the home of the 18th-century hermit John Harris. C．It features a very deep well that might contain royal treasure. D．It was built in the 19th century and is famous for its woodlands. 42．This passage is most likely taken from ________. A．a geographic survey report B．a local travel magazine C．a physical training blog D．an archaeology research paper (C) Running is often tiring and a lot of hard work, but nothing beats the feeling you get after finishing a long workout around the track. But while it’s long been believed that endorphins (内啡肽) — chemicals in the body that cause happiness — are behind the so-called “runner’s high”, a study suggested that there may be more to this phenomenon than we previously knew. According to a recent study published by a group of scientists from several German universities, a group of chemicals called endocannabinoids (内源性大麻素) may actually be responsible for this familiar great feeling. To test this theory, the scientists turned to mice. Both mice and humans release high levels of endorphins and endocannabinoids after exercise. After exercising on running wheels, the mice seemed happy and relaxed and displayed no signs of anxiety. But after being given a drug to block their endorphins, the mice’s behavior didn’t seem to change. However, when their endocannabinoids were blocked with a different drug, their runners’ high symptoms seemed to fade. “The long-held notion of endorphins being responsible for the runner’s high is false. Endorphins are effective pain relievers, but only when it comes to the pain in your body and muscles you feel after working out,” Patrick Lucas Austin wrote on science blog Lifehacker. Similar studies are yet to be carried out on humans, but it’s already known that exercise is a highly effective way to get rid of stress or anxiety. The UK’s National Health Service even prescribes exercise to patients who are suffering from depression. “Being depressed can leave you feeling low in energy, which might put you off being more active. Regular exercise can improve your mood if you have depression, and it’s especially useful for people with mild to moderate depression,” it wrote on its website. It seems like nothing can beat that feeling we get after a good workout, even if we don’t fully understand where it comes from. At least if we’re feeling down, we know that all we have to do is to put on our running shoes. 43．What did scientists from German universities recently discover? A．Working out is a highly effective way to treat depression. B．The runner’s high could be caused by endocannabinoids. C．Endorphins may contribute to one’s high spirits after running. D．The level of endorphins and endocannabinoids could affect one’s mood. 44．Why did the scientists give mice drugs in their experiment? A．To identify what is responsible for the runner’s high. B．To see the specific symptoms of the runner’s high. C．To find what reduces the runner’s high symptoms. D．To test what influences the level of endocannabinoids released. 45．What does the underlined word “notion” in Paragraph 5 mean? A．Effect. B．Goal. C．Opinion. D．Question. 46．What can we know about regular workouts according to the UK’s National Health Service? A．They tend to make depressed patients feel more energetic immediately. B．They are prescribed mainly for patients with severe mental disorders. C．They perform better in curing people with mild to moderate depression. D．They can help ease depression symptoms. 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. From Selling Books to Selling Life From the largest female bookstore in Europe to the first detective novel store in Europe, from independent bookstores to large chain ones, Charing Cross Road is the most famous bookstore street in London. 84 Charing Cross Road, published in 1970, tells the story of the New York woman writer Helene Hanff and the London bookseller Frank Percy Doel. 47 Charing Cross Road has thus become a cultural landmark in London, attracting many literary enthusiasts and tourists with its unique literary charm. However, today’s situation is no longer the same. With the closing of a number of chain bookstores, some independent bookstores have begun to think about how to continue the British literary tradition with dignity. 48 Judging from the current business model, those who can survive are completing the transition from selling books to selling life. As the largest independent bookstore in the United Kingdom, Waterstone is currently undergoing design changes by LDS, a British architectural firm. Architect Alex said they focused on improving customer experience and planned to build multiple spaces. “We will have some small rooms full of books, like private study rooms, in which one can discuss his works with the author.” The focus of the future physical bookstore is on creating an atmosphere. 49 Booksellers and authors generally believe that bookstores must develop in the direction of a cultural complex so that people come here for a lot of activities, attending concerts, watching movies, or participating in discussions. Some writers say that physical bookstores can expand their business beyond selling books and provide cultural services to customers. Others believe that bookstores can adopt a membership system. 50 Corresponding membership activities are conducted for children and students, and visiting bookstores should become part of the daily lives of more people as a cultural leisure method. A．Ever since, adaptations brought the book to new audiences and were incredibly popular, though they received mixed critical reviews. B．In addition to discounts, members are given the opportunity to attend lectures, literary gatherings and meetings with authors. C．Recently, British book agents, writers, bookshop operators and other groups gathered here to explore the survival model of the future bookstore. D．After translations into several languages, broadcasting, stage plays, and movies continue to interpret this friendship based on books. E．The literary lifestyle of the British, which is deep rooted in its national character, is bound to survive the crisis of existence. F．Therefore, bars and cafes are an essential part of the bookstore to improve the comprehensive experience for visitors. IV. Summary Writing (10分) 51．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. Art Gallery Visits The lasting rainy winter is a season that feels heavy with depression. Luckily, I have a way to escape from the winter blues — visiting art galleries. Engaging with art closely, particularly in winter, is a life enhancer and a relief from loneliness, sadness, and frustration. When viewing things we find beautiful, activity in the pleasure and reward centres of the brain goes up. So when I don't have the time, or energy to take on challenging new themes in the gallery, I return to the comfort of my favourites: the blue in David Hockney's swimming pool, Agnes Martin's faint, delicate lines, or John Constable's cloudy Brighton summers. The comforting properties of these artworks are best experienced during winter. And did you know that even on the busiest of days, in the busiest galleries, there is potential for mindfulness? Mindfulness is hard to catch for me — my head feels like a mix of shopping lists, decade-old angers, and random song bits I can't name, but time spent in a gallery is the closest I get to being truly present. Part of this is down to "slow looking”, the practice of taking time to really absorb an artwork rather than giving it a glance, reading the accompanying description, having another quick look and moving on. The experience can be powerful and informative. Often, I visit galleries alone to gather my thoughts. I just want the company of form, colour, material. But sometimes I'll take my daughter. To me, joy was walking her and watching as her eyes widened in curiosity, tiny fingers pointing: "Do you see what I see?” Telling her: "Yes ... but also no.” That we all see these things in a different way is such an important lesson that reaches into every part of our lives. Remembering that perception is personal is precious for me. This knowledge keeps me in a good state. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ V.

In recent years, scientists have made great progress in exploring Mars’ polar ice caps, which hold important clues about the planet’s past climate and possible life. A team of international scientists 1______ (study) the south polar ice cap of Mars for five years, and they have made some surprising discoveries so far. The scientists used a high-tech radar system on a Mars rover to scan the ice cap, and found a large liquid water lake under the ice, 2______ (make) it the first confirmed liquid water lake on Mars. The lake is about 1.5 kilometers below the ice surface, and its water is extremely salty, 3______ keeps it from freezing in the cold Martian environment. This discovery shows that Mars is not as dry as we thought before, and it raises the possibility of 4______ (find) microbial life on the planet. Scientists have found that the ice cap changes with the Martian seasons, just like the polar ice caps on Earth. But the speed of its change is much 5______ (fast) than that on Earth, which is related to Mars’ thinner atmosphere and shorter seasons. This change has been recorded by the Mars rover, and the data 6______ (collect) so far has helped scientists study Mars’ climate change in depth. To study the ice cap further, scientists plan to send a new Mars rover to the south pole of Mars in 2026. The new rover will be equipped with more advanced equipment to collect ice and water samples. Scientists hope 7______ the new rover can help them find more evidence of water and life on Mars, and unlock the secrets of the planet’s climate change. Space exploration is a long and difficult journey, but every small discovery brings us closer to the truth about the universe. As one of the scientists says, 8______ ______ _____we keep exploring, we will never stop learning about the world beyond Earth. Mars exploration is not only about finding life on the red planet, but also about understanding our own planet better. It also inspires humans to keep moving forward, and to challenge ourselves to reach further 9______ the universe. For humans, the exploration of Mars is a great step, 10______ a small one in the journey of exploring the universe. Section B Directions: Fill in each blank with a proper word chosen from the box.

In a global poll conducted last year by Kickresume, 85% of people said they had experienced a (n) 21 co-worker. So what is it that gets on people’s nerves? The Kickresume survey put credit-stealing top of the list of troublesome colleague behaviour. Another recent poll conducted by BambooHR crowned taking credit for employees’ ideas as the worst 22 trait of all. You get the picture. Grabbing kudos for someone else’s idea makes lots of people angry. Done intentionally and repeatedly, it is not just disturbing but bad for the organization: ideas are hoarded, trust erodes and 23 suffers. A recent paper by Beijing Jiaotong University found that credit-claiming by 24 at a large Chinese manufacturing firm was associated with worse job performance by employees. When something happens a lot and is extremely bothersome, a (n) 25 mechanism is needed. So the next time you hear your brilliant idea coming out of the mouth of a colleague, breathe deeply and remember two things. First, credit-stealing may be less 26 than imagined. Psychologists have long documented a phenomenon called “cryptomnesia” in which people 27 plagiarize (抄袭) the ideas of others. Experiments into cryptomnesia vary but the basic set-up is for participants in a group to be asked to generate ideas to solve a particular problem. They are then told to recall only their own ideas, and to come up with new ideas that do not 28 ones that have already been raised. 29 these instructions, people tend to claim a decent chunk of old ideas as their own, and to copy previous suggestions when raising 30 new ideas. People may steal credit without even realizing it. Second, innovation very 31 takes the form of an entirely new idea; instead, it recombines existing ones. And people often reach the same conclusions 32 . That is the message of “Like”, an entertaining new book by Martin Reeves and Bob Goodman on the 33 of the “like” button. The thumbs-up icon was made common and popular when Facebook adopted it in 2009, but well before then firms like Vimeo, Yelp, Digg. com and FriendFeed had been 34 with ways for users to register an emotional reaction to content. So even if you think of an idea as your own stroke of genius, the reality is likely to be 35 . 21．A．violent B．competing C．promising D．annoying 22．A．managerial B．competitive C．physical D．credible 23．A．economy B．profit C．motivation D．truth 24．A．friends B．executives C．producers D．buyers 25．A．communicating B．copying C．evaluating D．coping 26．A．nasty B．special C．inferior D．welcome 27．A．deliberately B．supposedly C．accidentally D．shamelessly 28．A．counter B．reproduce C．assemble D．support 29．A．On top of B．In case of C．In accordance with D．In spite of 30．A．genuinely B．supposedly C．specifically D．recently 31．A．unfortunately B．rarely C．merely D．typically 32．A．interdependently B．repeatedly C．independently D．collectively 33．A．functions B．models C．resources D．origins 34．A．struggling B．cooperating C．venturing D．experimenting 35．A．distinctive B．different C．obvious D．identical Section B Directions: Read the following three passages. 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) It was a day as Australian as you can get: Sun, waves and surfing at the beach. And then something distinctly un-Australian turned up. Aaron Fowler and a friend were heading back to the parking lot after a day in the waves. “We saw something coming out of the water,” Mr. Fowler, a drywall repairman, said. “We thought it was a sea bird, but then we thought, ‘Oh, that’s way too big,’ and it had a big, long neck and a tail sticking out like a duck. It stood up in the water and waddled straight up to us and just started cleaning itself,” Standing there on the beach in the small town of Denmark in Western Australia on Friday afternoon was a male emperor penguin, about 2,100 miles from where one might expect to find it, in Antarctica. Mr. Fowler had seen plenty of dolphins and other creatures in the waves, including one leopard seal, which is also native to Antarctica, but he never expected a penguin. “We were in shock,” he said. Even someone with years of experience studying penguins was surprised at the sighting. “That crazy young penguin,” said Dee Boersma, a professor of biology at the University of Washington and author of “Penguins: Natural History and Conservation.” “Emperor penguins move around, because they have to be on an ice sheet or a glacier to raise young, and the glaciers are eroding away,” she said. “That’s not unusual. You’ve got to continue to swim until you find food. But this is the furthest north I’ve heard of an emperor penguin.” Record low sea-ice levels in the Antarctic have wreaked havoc (破坏)on the lives of emperor penguins. Penguins have sought new breeding grounds as a result, but normally they stay relatively close to their old homes. The penguin who arrived in Australia did not seem to have been flummoxed too much by its new surroundings. The penguin “seemed completely happy,” Mr. Fowler said. “It was not at all shy. It was very friendly. It was quite happy in our company.” Mr. Fowler alerted the authorities about the newly immigrated Aussie penguin. It was picked up and is being cared for; its rehabilitation is expected to take a few weeks, the Department of Biodiversity, Conservation and Attractions of Western Australia said. “The penguin appeared to be malnourished,” the agency said, “and was removed from the beach to avoid potential threats from dogs, cats, foxes and vehicles.” 36．Why was Dee Boersma, the biology professor, surprised at the sighting of the penguin? A．Because she had never seen a penguin before. B．Because the penguin was in a place far from its usual habitat. C．Because the penguin was swimming in the waves. D．Because the penguin was alone and seemed lost. 37．What is the main reason emperor penguins have to move around to find new breeding grounds? A．To escape from predators. B．To find more food. C．To follow the glaciers that are eroding away. D．To raise their young in safer environments. 38．The underlined sentence in Paragraph 8 means A．The penguin was very nervous in its new environment. B．The penguin was quite shy and unfriendly. C．The penguin adapted well to its new surroundings. D．The penguin was confused and perplexed by its new environment. 39．What is the main idea of the article? A．A surprising encounter with a friendly penguin in Australia. B．The impact of climate change on emperor penguins’habitat. C．The rehabilitation process of a malnourished penguin in Australia. D．The differences between sand and snow for emperor penguins. (B) A good walk through the Peckforton Hills and Castle, Cheshire The Landscape Deep into autumn in the Peckforton Hills, the red sandstone *outcrops* (岩石露头) and mossy old woodland glowed in the golden afternoon light. We had joined a stretch of the Sandstone Trail, which traces Cheshire’s central sandstone *ridge* (山脊). Our goal was a northwards passage of the highest hills on the trail. Climbing the wooded sides of Bickerton Hill brought us to an open lowland area. Restoration work here is reclaiming this precious habitat for rare wildlife. Below the highest point is Mad Allen’s Hole, believed to have been the home of an 18th-century *hermit* (隐士) John Harris. The path then steepened, eventually reaching the trail’s highest point at Raw Head, where a summit looks north over Delamere Forest to Ellesmere Port. Dipping through farmland, we were soon climbing again, this time through beech and oak woodland at Bulkeley Hill. We gathered a bagful of sweet chestnuts before detouring into Higher Burwardsley for lunch at the warmly welcoming Pheasant Inn. The final miles skirted the hills below Stanners Nab and the impressive 19th-century grandeur of Peckforton Castle. The finish of our walk drew near — lofty Beeston Crag topped with the ruins of Beeston Castle. Built in the 1220s by Ranulf de Blondeville, 6th Earl of Chester, it is well worth a visit. Inside is the famous castle well, a possible hiding place of Richard II’s treasure, which drops a dark and dizzying 365ft into the hill. Fact File ·Distance/ Difficulty: 14 miles; moderate; some steep climbs. ·Start: Bickerton Hill car park (SY14 8LN). ·Finish: Beeston Castle (CW6 9TX). ·Getting there: Take Trains to Whitchurch or Chester first. Get on the bus running between the two (not on Sundays) before getting off at Duckington and walking less than a mile to the start. ·Lunch: The Pheasant Inn, Higher Burwardsley. 40．Which of the following route maps correctly illustrates the walking path? A．[Bickerton Hill] → [Raw Head] → [Beeston Castle] → [The Pheasant Inn] B．[Bickerton Hill] → [Bulkeley Hill] → [Beeston Castle] → [Raw Head] C．[Maiden Castle] → [Peckforton Castle] → [Beeston Castle] → [The Pheasant Inn] D．[Bickerton Hill] → [Raw Head] → [The Pheasant Inn] → [Beeston Castle] 41．What is special about Beeston Castle according to the passage? A．It is the highest point of the entire Sandstone Trail. B．It was once the home of the 18th-century hermit John Harris. C．It features a very deep well that might contain royal treasure. D．It was built in the 19th century and is famous for its woodlands. 42．This passage is most likely taken from ________. A．a geographic survey report B．a local travel magazine C．a physical training blog D．an archaeology research paper (C) Running is often tiring and a lot of hard work, but nothing beats the feeling you get after finishing a long workout around the track. But while it’s long been believed that endorphins (内啡肽) — chemicals in the body that cause happiness — are behind the so-called “runner’s high”, a study suggested that there may be more to this phenomenon than we previously knew. According to a recent study published by a group of scientists from several German universities, a group of chemicals called endocannabinoids (内源性大麻素) may actually be responsible for this familiar great feeling. To test this theory, the scientists turned to mice. Both mice and humans release high levels of endorphins and endocannabinoids after exercise. After exercising on running wheels, the mice seemed happy and relaxed and displayed no signs of anxiety. But after being given a drug to block their endorphins, the mice’s behavior didn’t seem to change. However, when their endocannabinoids were blocked with a different drug, their runners’ high symptoms seemed to fade. “The long-held notion of endorphins being responsible for the runner’s high is false. Endorphins are effective pain relievers, but only when it comes to the pain in your body and muscles you feel after working out,” Patrick Lucas Austin wrote on science blog Lifehacker. Similar studies are yet to be carried out on humans, but it’s already known that exercise is a highly effective way to get rid of stress or anxiety. The UK’s National Health Service even prescribes exercise to patients who are suffering from depression. “Being depressed can leave you feeling low in energy, which might put you off being more active. Regular exercise can improve your mood if you have depression, and it’s especially useful for people with mild to moderate depression,” it wrote on its website. It seems like nothing can beat that feeling we get after a good workout, even if we don’t fully understand where it comes from. At least if we’re feeling down, we know that all we have to do is to put on our running shoes. 43．What did scientists from German universities recently discover? A．Working out is a highly effective way to treat depression. B．The runner’s high could be caused by endocannabinoids. C．Endorphins may contribute to one’s high spirits after running. D．The level of endorphins and endocannabinoids could affect one’s mood. 44．Why did the scientists give mice drugs in their experiment? A．To identify what is responsible for the runner’s high. B．To see the specific symptoms of the runner’s high. C．To find what reduces the runner’s high symptoms. D．To test what influences the level of endocannabinoids released. 45．What does the underlined word “notion” in Paragraph 5 mean? A．Effect. B．Goal. C．Opinion. D．Question. 46．What can we know about regular workouts according to the UK’s National Health Service? A．They tend to make depressed patients feel more energetic immediately. B．They are prescribed mainly for patients with severe mental disorders. C．They perform better in curing people with mild to moderate depression. D．They can help ease depression symptoms.

Note that there are two more sentences than you need. From Selling Books to Selling Life From the largest female bookstore in Europe to the first detective novel store in Europe, from independent bookstores to large chain ones, Charing Cross Road is the most famous bookstore street in London. 84 Charing Cross Road, published in 1970, tells the story of the New York woman writer Helene Hanff and the London bookseller Frank Percy Doel. 47 Charing Cross Road has thus become a cultural landmark in London, attracting many literary enthusiasts and tourists with its unique literary charm. However, today’s situation is no longer the same. With the closing of a number of chain bookstores, some independent bookstores have begun to think about how to continue the British literary tradition with dignity. 48 Judging from the current business model, those who can survive are completing the transition from selling books to selling life. As the largest independent bookstore in the United Kingdom, Waterstone is currently undergoing design changes by LDS, a British architectural firm. Architect Alex said they focused on improving customer experience and planned to build multiple spaces. “We will have some small rooms full of books, like private study rooms, in which one can discuss his works with the author.” The focus of the future physical bookstore is on creating an atmosphere. 49 Booksellers and authors generally believe that bookstores must develop in the direction of a cultural complex so that people come here for a lot of activities, attending concerts, watching movies, or participating in discussions. Some writers say that physical bookstores can expand their business beyond selling books and provide cultural services to customers. Others believe that bookstores can adopt a membership system. 50 Corresponding membership activities are conducted for children and students, and visiting bookstores should become part of the daily lives of more people as a cultural leisure method. A．Ever since, adaptations brought the book to new audiences and were incredibly popular, though they received mixed critical reviews. B．In addition to discounts, members are given the opportunity to attend lectures, literary gatherings and meetings with authors. C．Recently, British book agents, writers, bookshop operators and other groups gathered here to explore the survival model of the future bookstore. D．After translations into several languages, broadcasting, stage plays, and movies continue to interpret this friendship based on books. E．The literary lifestyle of the British, which is deep rooted in its national character, is bound to survive the crisis of existence. F．Therefore, bars and cafes are an essential part of the bookstore to improve the comprehensive experience for visitors. IV. Summary Writing (10分) 51．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. Art Gallery Visits The lasting rainy winter is a season that feels heavy with depression. Luckily, I have a way to escape from the winter blues — visiting art galleries. Engaging with art closely, particularly in winter, is a life enhancer and a relief from loneliness, sadness, and frustration. When viewing things we find beautiful, activity in the pleasure and reward centres of the brain goes up. So when I don't have the time, or energy to take on challenging new themes in the gallery, I return to the comfort of my favourites: the blue in David Hockney's swimming pool, Agnes Martin's faint, delicate lines, or John Constable's cloudy Brighton summers. The comforting properties of these artworks are best experienced during winter. And did you know that even on the busiest of days, in the busiest galleries, there is potential for mindfulness? Mindfulness is hard to catch for me — my head feels like a mix of shopping lists, decade-old angers, and random song bits I can't name, but time spent in a gallery is the closest I get to being truly present. Part of this is down to "slow looking”, the practice of taking time to really absorb an artwork rather than giving it a glance, reading the accompanying description, having another quick look and moving on. The experience can be powerful and informative. Often, I visit galleries alone to gather my thoughts. I just want the company of form, colour, material. But sometimes I'll take my daughter. To me, joy was walking her and watching as her eyes widened in curiosity, tiny fingers pointing: "Do you see what I see?” Telling her: "Yes ... but also no.” That we all see these things in a different way is such an important lesson that reaches into every part of our lives. Remembering that perception is personal is precious for me. This knowledge keeps me in a good state. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ V.

In recent years, scientists have made great progress in exploring Mars’ polar ice caps, which hold important clues about the planet’s past climate and possible life. A team of international scientists 1______ (study) the south polar ice cap of Mars for five years, and they have made some surprising discoveries so far. The scientists used a high-tech radar system on a Mars rover to scan the ice cap, and found a large liquid water lake under the ice, 2______ (make) it the first confirmed liquid water lake on Mars. The lake is about 1.5 kilometers below the ice surface, and its water is extremely salty, 3______ keeps it from freezing in the cold Martian environment. This discovery shows that Mars is not as dry as we thought before, and it raises the possibility of 4______ (find) microbial life on the planet. Scientists have found that the ice cap changes with the Martian seasons, just like the polar ice caps on Earth. But the speed of its change is much 5______ (fast) than that on Earth, which is related to Mars’ thinner atmosphere and shorter seasons. This change has been recorded by the Mars rover, and the data 6______ (collect) so far has helped scientists study Mars’ climate change in depth. To study the ice cap further, scientists plan to send a new Mars rover to the south pole of Mars in 2026. The new rover will be equipped with more advanced equipment to collect ice and water samples. Scientists hope 7______ the new rover can help them find more evidence of water and life on Mars, and unlock the secrets of the planet’s climate change. Space exploration is a long and difficult journey, but every small discovery brings us closer to the truth about the universe. As one of the scientists says, 8______ ______ _____we keep exploring, we will never stop learning about the world beyond Earth. Mars exploration is not only about finding life on the red planet, but also about understanding our own planet better. It also inspires humans to keep moving forward, and to challenge ourselves to reach further 9______ the universe. For humans, the exploration of Mars is a great step, 10______ a small one in the journey of exploring the universe. 【答案】 1.has been studying 2. making 3. which 4. finding 5. faster 6. collected 7. that 8. as long as 9. into 10. though 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了国际科学家团队对火星南极冰盖的探索成果 —— 发现冰盖下存在液态水湖，这一发现改写了人们对火星 “干旱星球” 的认知。文章还介绍了火星冰盖的季节变化特点、2026 年新火星车的探索计划，诠释了火星探索对人类了解宇宙和自身星球的重要意义。 1．考查动词时态。句意：一个国际科学家团队已经对火星南极冰盖研究了五年，到目前为止他们有了一些惊人的发现。动作 “研究” 从过去开始，持续到现在且仍在进行，用现在完成进行时，主语 a team 为单数。故填 has been studying。 2．考查非谓语动词（现在分词）。句意：科学家们利用火星车上的高科技雷达系统扫描冰盖，发现冰下有一个大型液态水湖，这使其成为火星上首个被证实的液态水湖。设空处作结果状语，前面的整个句子与 make 之间为主动关系，表自然的结果，用现在分词形式。故填 making。 3．考查非限制性定语从句。句意：这个湖在冰面以下约 1.5 公里处，湖水含盐量极高，这让它在火星寒冷的环境中不会结冰。设空处引导非限制性定语从句，修饰前文整个句子，在从句中作主语，用关系代词 which 引导。故填 which。 4．考查非谓语动词（动名词）。句意：这一发现表明，火星并不像我们以前认为的那样干燥，也增加了在这颗行星上发现微生物生命的可能性。设空处作介词 of 的宾语，用动名词形式。故填 finding。 5．考查形容词比较等级。句意：但它的变化速度比地球快得多，这与火星更稀薄的大气层和更短的季节有关。根据 than that on Earth，用形容词的比较级形式，much 修饰比较级表程度。故填 faster。 6．考查非谓语动词（过去分词）。句意：这种变化已被火星车记录下来，到目前为止收集到的数据帮助科学家深入研究火星的气候变化。设空处作定语修饰名词 the data，the data 与 collect 之间为被动关系，用过去分词形式作后置定语。故填 collected。 7．考查宾语从句。句意：科学家们希望新火星车能帮助他们在火星上找到更多水和生命的证据，并解开火星气候变化的秘密。设空处引导宾语从句，作 hope 的宾语，从句成分完整、句意通顺，用 that 引导。故填 that。 8．考查状语从句。句意：正如一位科学家所说，只要我们继续探索，我们就永远不会停止了解地球之外的世界。设空处引导条件状语从句，意为 “只要”，用 as long as 引导。故填 as long as。 9．考查介词。句意：它还激励人类不断前进，挑战自我，向宇宙更深处迈进。设空处作介词，且与宾语 the universe构成迈进对象。故填 into。 10．考查让步连词。句意：对人类来说，火星探索是一大步，尽管在探索宇宙的旅程中只是一小步。设空处表让步关系，意为 “尽管”，用连词 though。故填 though。 Section B Directions: Fill in each blank with a proper word chosen from the box.

Reading Comprehension (21 –35题，每题1分；36 – 50题，每题2分；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. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context. Surveys of office behaviour are not scientific. In a global poll conducted last year by Kickresume, 85% of people said they had experienced a (n) 21 co-worker. So what is it that gets on people’s nerves? The Kickresume survey put credit-stealing top of the list of troublesome colleague behaviour. Another recent poll conducted by BambooHR crowned taking credit for employees’ ideas as the worst 22 trait of all. You get the picture. Grabbing kudos for someone else’s idea makes lots of people angry. Done intentionally and repeatedly, it is not just disturbing but bad for the organization: ideas are hoarded, trust erodes and 23 suffers. A recent paper by Beijing Jiaotong University found that credit-claiming by 24 at a large Chinese manufacturing firm was associated with worse job performance by employees. When something happens a lot and is extremely bothersome, a (n) 25 mechanism is needed. So the next time you hear your brilliant idea coming out of the mouth of a colleague, breathe deeply and remember two things. First, credit-stealing may be less 26 than imagined. Psychologists have long documented a phenomenon called “cryptomnesia” in which people 27 plagiarize (抄袭) the ideas of others. Experiments into cryptomnesia vary but the basic set-up is for participants in a group to be asked to generate ideas to solve a particular problem. They are then told to recall only their own ideas, and to come up with new ideas that do not 28 ones that have already been raised. 29 these instructions, people tend to claim a decent chunk of old ideas as their own, and to copy previous suggestions when raising 30 new ideas. People may steal credit without even realizing it. Second, innovation very 31 takes the form of an entirely new idea; instead, it recombines existing ones. And people often reach the same conclusions 32 . That is the message of “Like”, an entertaining new book by Martin Reeves and Bob Goodman on the 33 of the “like” button. The thumbs-up icon was made common and popular when Facebook adopted it in 2009, but well before then firms like Vimeo, Yelp, Digg. com and FriendFeed had been 34 with ways for users to register an emotional reaction to content. So even if you think of an idea as your own stroke of genius, the reality is likely to be 35 . 21．A．violent B．competing C．promising D．annoying 22．A．managerial B．competitive C．physical D．credible 23．A．economy B．profit C．motivation D．truth 24．A．friends B．executives C．producers D．buyers 25．A．communicating B．copying C．evaluating D．coping 26．A．nasty B．special C．inferior D．welcome 27．A．deliberately B．supposedly C．accidentally D．shamelessly 28．A．counter B．reproduce C．assemble D．support 29．A．On top of B．In case of C．In accordance with D．In spite of 30．A．genuinely B．supposedly C．specifically D．recently 31．A．unfortunately B．rarely C．merely D．typically 32．A．interdependently B．repeatedly C．independently D．collectively 33．A．functions B．models C．resources D．origins 34．A．struggling B．cooperating C．venturing D．experimenting 35．A．distinctive B．different C．obvious D．identical 【答案】 21．D 22．A 23．C 24．B 25．D 26．A 27．C 28．B 29．D 30．B 31．B 32．C 33．D 34．D 35．B 【导语】本文为一篇议论文，围绕职场中“抢占功劳”这一令人反感的同事行为展开论述。文章通过两项调查指出，抢占他人创意是最让人心烦的职场行为之一，且这种行为会对团队造成负面影响。同时，文章从两个角度给出应对机制。 21．考查形容词词义辨析。句意：在招聘网站Kickresume去年进行的一项全球调查中，85%的人表示自己遇到过令人讨厌的同事。A. violent暴力的；B. competing竞争的；C. promising有前途的；D. annoying令人讨厌的。根据后文“So what is it that gets on people’s nerves?

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) It was a day as Australian as you can get: Sun, waves and surfing at the beach. And then something distinctly un-Australian turned up. Aaron Fowler and a friend were heading back to the parking lot after a day in the waves. “We saw something coming out of the water,” Mr. Fowler, a drywall repairman, said. “We thought it was a sea bird, but then we thought, ‘Oh, that’s way too big,’ and it had a big, long neck and a tail sticking out like a duck. It stood up in the water and waddled straight up to us and just started cleaning itself,” Standing there on the beach in the small town of Denmark in Western Australia on Friday afternoon was a male emperor penguin, about 2,100 miles from where one might expect to find it, in Antarctica. Mr. Fowler had seen plenty of dolphins and other creatures in the waves, including one leopard seal, which is also native to Antarctica, but he never expected a penguin. “We were in shock,” he said. Even someone with years of experience studying penguins was surprised at the sighting. “That crazy young penguin,” said Dee Boersma, a professor of biology at the University of Washington and author of “Penguins: Natural History and Conservation.” “Emperor penguins move around, because they have to be on an ice sheet or a glacier to raise young, and the glaciers are eroding away,” she said. “That’s not unusual. You’ve got to continue to swim until you find food. But this is the furthest north I’ve heard of an emperor penguin.” Record low sea-ice levels in the Antarctic have wreaked havoc (破坏)on the lives of emperor penguins. Penguins have sought new breeding grounds as a result, but normally they stay relatively close to their old homes. The penguin who arrived in Australia did not seem to have been flummoxed too much by its new surroundings. The penguin “seemed completely happy,” Mr. Fowler said. “It was not at all shy. It was very friendly. It was quite happy in our company.” Mr. Fowler alerted the authorities about the newly immigrated Aussie penguin. It was picked up and is being cared for; its rehabilitation is expected to take a few weeks, the Department of Biodiversity, Conservation and Attractions of Western Australia said. “The penguin appeared to be malnourished,” the agency said, “and was removed from the beach to avoid potential threats from dogs, cats, foxes and vehicles.” 36．Why was Dee Boersma, the biology professor, surprised at the sighting of the penguin? A．Because she had never seen a penguin before. B．Because the penguin was in a place far from its usual habitat. C．Because the penguin was swimming in the waves. D．Because the penguin was alone and seemed lost. 37．What is the main reason emperor penguins have to move around to find new breeding grounds? A．To escape from predators. B．To find more food. C．To follow the glaciers that are eroding away. D．To raise their young in safer environments. 38．The underlined sentence in Paragraph 8 means A．The penguin was very nervous in its new environment. B．The penguin was quite shy and unfriendly. C．The penguin adapted well to its new surroundings. D．The penguin was confused and perplexed by its new environment. 39．What is the main idea of the article? A．A surprising encounter with a friendly penguin in Australia. B．The impact of climate change on emperor penguins’habitat. C．The rehabilitation process of a malnourished penguin in Australia. D．The differences between sand and snow for emperor penguins. 【答案】36．B 37．D 38．C 39．A 【导语】这是一篇新闻报道，文章主要讲的是一个周五的下午，一只雄性帝企鹅出现了在距离南极洲大约2100英里外的西澳大利亚州丹麦小镇的海滩上。 36．细节理解题。根据文章第五段“Even someone with years of experience studying penguins was surprised at the sighting.(即使是有多年研究企鹅经验的人也对这一景象感到惊讶)”以及第六段““That’s not unusual. You’ve got to continue to swim until you find food. But this is the furthest north I’ve heard of an emperor penguin.”(这并不罕见。你必须继续游，直到找到食物。但这是我听说过的最北的帝企鹅。”)”可知生物学教授Dee Boersma对这只企鹅的出现感到很惊讶，因为这只企鹅出现在一个远离其惯常栖息地的地方。故选B项。 37．细节理解题。根据文章第六段““Emperor penguins move around, because they have to be on an ice sheet or a glacier to raise young, and the glaciers are eroding away, ” she said.(帝企鹅四处移动，因为它们必须在冰原或冰川上养育后代，而冰川正在侵蚀，”她说)”可知帝企鹅必须在冰原或冰川上养育后代，而冰川正在侵蚀，所以帝企鹅需要不断移动，从而能够在更安全的环境中养育后代。故选D项。 38．词句猜测题。根据划线部分之后“The penguin “seemed completely happy,” Mr. Fowler said. “It was not at all shy. It was very friendly. It was quite happy in our company.”(这只企鹅“看起来非常开心，”Mr. Fowler说。它一点也不害羞。它非常友好。它在我们的陪伴下很开心。”)”可知这只帝企鹅在新环境中过得非常快乐，由此可以推测划线句子的意思是：帝企鹅很好地适应了新环境。故选C项。 39．主旨大意题。文章第一段“It was a day as Australian as you can get: Sun, waves and surfing at the beach. And then something distinctly un-Australian turned up.(这是你能感受到的最澳洲的一天：阳光、海浪和在海滩上冲浪。然后，一些明显不属于澳大利亚的东西出现了)”指出在一个阳光明媚的日子里，在澳大利亚海滩上出现了一些明显不属于澳大利亚的东西，指出了事件发生的时间、地点及人物，符合新闻报道的语篇特点。文章从第二段到最后一段依次介绍了帝企鹅不远千里来到澳大利亚的原因及在澳大利亚的适应情况和当地政府对于这只帝企鹅所采取的保护措施。由此可知文章主要在围绕着在澳大利亚与一只友好的企鹅意外相遇这件事来展开。故选A项。 (B) A good walk through the Peckforton Hills and Castle, Cheshire The Landscape Deep into autumn in the Peckforton Hills, the red sandstone *outcrops* (岩石露头) and mossy old woodland glowed in the golden afternoon light. We had joined a stretch of the Sandstone Trail, which traces Cheshire’s central sandstone *ridge* (山脊). Our goal was a northwards passage of the highest hills on the trail. Climbing the wooded sides of Bickerton Hill brought us to an open lowland area. Restoration work here is reclaiming this precious habitat for rare wildlife. Below the highest point is Mad Allen’s Hole, believed to have been the home of an 18th-century *hermit* (隐士) John Harris. The path then steepened, eventually reaching the trail’s highest point at Raw Head, where a summit looks north over Delamere Forest to Ellesmere Port. Dipping through farmland, we were soon climbing again, this time through beech and oak woodland at Bulkeley Hill. We gathered a bagful of sweet chestnuts before detouring into Higher Burwardsley for lunch at the warmly welcoming Pheasant Inn. The final miles skirted the hills below Stanners Nab and the impressive 19th-century grandeur of Peckforton Castle. The finish of our walk drew near — lofty Beeston Crag topped with the ruins of Beeston Castle. Built in the 1220s by Ranulf de Blondeville, 6th Earl of Chester, it is well worth a visit. Inside is the famous castle well, a possible hiding place of Richard II’s treasure, which drops a dark and dizzying 365ft into the hill. Fact File ·Distance/ Difficulty: 14 miles; moderate; some steep climbs. ·Start: Bickerton Hill car park (SY14 8LN). ·Finish: Beeston Castle (CW6 9TX). ·Getting there: Take Trains to Whitchurch or Chester first. Get on the bus running between the two (not on Sundays) before getting off at Duckington and walking less than a mile to the start. ·Lunch: The Pheasant Inn, Higher Burwardsley. 40．Which of the following route maps correctly illustrates the walking path? A．[Bickerton Hill] → [Raw Head] → [Beeston Castle] → [The Pheasant Inn] B．[Bickerton Hill] → [Bulkeley Hill] → [Beeston Castle] → [Raw Head] C．[Maiden Castle] → [Peckforton Castle] → [Beeston Castle] → [The Pheasant Inn] D．[Bickerton Hill] → [Raw Head] → [The Pheasant Inn] → [Beeston Castle] 41．What is special about Beeston Castle according to the passage? A．It is the highest point of the entire Sandstone Trail. B．It was once the home of the 18th-century hermit John Harris. C．It features a very deep well that might contain royal treasure. D．It was built in the 19th century and is famous for its woodlands. 42．This passage is most likely taken from ________. A．a geographic survey report B．a local travel magazine C．a physical training blog D．an archaeology research paper 【答案】40．D 41．C 42．B 【导语】本文是一篇应用文，主要讲述了一次在英国切斯特郡Peckforton Hills及周边地区的徒步旅行经历。 40．细节理解题。根据第二段“Climbing the wooded sides of Bickerton Hill brought us to an open lowland area.(攀登Bickerton Hill的林间坡地后，我们来到一片开阔的低地。)”，第二段“The path then steepened, eventually reaching the trail’s highest point at Raw Head, where a summit looks north over Delamere Forest to Ellesmere Port.(随后，小径逐渐陡峭，最终抵达步道最高点——Raw Head。站在山顶，向北可俯瞰Delamere Forest直至Ellesmere Port。)”，第三段“We gathered a bagful of sweet chestnuts before detouring into Higher Burwardsley for lunch at the warmly welcoming Pheasant Inn.(我们采了满满一袋甜栗，随后绕道前往Higher Burwardsley，在热情好客的The Pheasant Inn享用午餐。)”和第四段“The final miles skirted the hills below Stanners Nab and the impressive 19th-century grandeur of Peckforton Castle.(最后几英里，我们绕过Stanners Nab山脚，眼前是Peckforton Castle壮丽的19世纪建筑。)”可知，正确的路线是[Bickerton Hill] → [Raw Head] → [The Pheasant Inn] → [Beeston Castle]。故选D。 41．细节理解题。根据第四段“Inside is the famous castle well, a possible hiding place of Richard II’s treasure, which drops a dark and dizzying 365ft into the hill.(城堡内著名的深井据说是理查二世宝藏的藏匿之处，井深达365英尺（约111米），幽暗深邃，令人头晕目眩。)”可知，Beeston Castle的特别之处是它有一个非常深的井，可能藏有皇家宝藏。故选C。 42．推理判断题。通读全文，尤其是Fact File部分“·Distance/ Difficulty: 14 miles; moderate; some steep climbs.·Start: Bickerton Hill car park (SY14 8LN).·Finish: Beeston Castle (CW6 9TX).(距离/难度：14英里；中等难度；部分路段坡度较陡。起点：比克顿山停车场（SY14 8LN）。终点：比斯顿城堡（CW6 9TX）。)”可知。本文提供了一条具有描述性的步行路线，其中包含了实用的细节（距离、难度、起点/终点、午餐推荐等），这在旅游或户外活动相关内容中较为常见，因此最可能来自于地方旅游杂志。故选B。 (C) Running is often tiring and a lot of hard work, but nothing beats the feeling you get after finishing a long workout around the track. But while it’s long been believed that endorphins (内啡肽) — chemicals in the body that cause happiness — are behind the so-called “runner’s high”, a study suggested that there may be more to this phenomenon than we previously knew. According to a recent study published by a group of scientists from several German universities, a group of chemicals called endocannabinoids (内源性大麻素) may actually be responsible for this familiar great feeling. To test this theory, the scientists turned to mice. Both mice and humans release high levels of endorphins and endocannabinoids after exercise. After exercising on running wheels, the mice seemed happy and relaxed and displayed no signs of anxiety. But after being given a drug to block their endorphins, the mice’s behavior didn’t seem to change. However, when their endocannabinoids were blocked with a different drug, their runners’ high symptoms seemed to fade. “The long-held notion of endorphins being responsible for the runner’s high is false. Endorphins are effective pain relievers, but only when it comes to the pain in your body and muscles you feel after working out,” Patrick Lucas Austin wrote on science blog Lifehacker. Similar studies are yet to be carried out on humans, but it’s already known that exercise is a highly effective way to get rid of stress or anxiety. The UK’s National Health Service even prescribes exercise to patients who are suffering from depression. “Being depressed can leave you feeling low in energy, which might put you off being more active. Regular exercise can improve your mood if you have depression, and it’s especially useful for people with mild to moderate depression,” it wrote on its website. It seems like nothing can beat that feeling we get after a good workout, even if we don’t fully understand where it comes from. At least if we’re feeling down, we know that all we have to do is to put on our running shoes. 43．What did scientists from German universities recently discover? A．Working out is a highly effective way to treat depression. B．The runner’s high could be caused by endocannabinoids. C．Endorphins may contribute to one’s high spirits after running. D．The level of endorphins and endocannabinoids could affect one’s mood. 44．Why did the scientists give mice drugs in their experiment? A．To identify what is responsible for the runner’s high. B．To see the specific symptoms of the runner’s high. C．To find what reduces the runner’s high symptoms. D．To test what influences the level of endocannabinoids released. 45．What does the underlined word “notion” in Paragraph 5 mean? A．Effect. B．Goal. C．Opinion. D．Question. 46．What can we know about regular workouts according to the UK’s National Health Service? A．They tend to make depressed patients feel more energetic immediately. B．They are prescribed mainly for patients with severe mental disorders. C．They perform better in curing people with mild to moderate depression. D．They can help ease depression symptoms. 【答案】43．B 44．A 45．C 46．D 【导语】这是一篇说明文。主要介绍了研究表明跑步后人们会感觉很好，其真正的原因可能是内源性大麻素。 43．细节理解题。根据第三段“According to a recent study published by a group of scientists from several German universities, a group of chemicals called endocannabinoids (内源性大麻素) may actually be responsible for this familiar great feeling. (根据德国几所大学的一组科学家最近发表的一项研究，一组称为内源性大麻素的化学物质实际上可能是这种熟悉的极好感觉的原因。)”可知，德国大学的科学家最近发现跑步者的兴奋可能是由内源性大麻素引起的。故选B。 44．推理判断题。根据第三段“According to a recent study published by a group of scientists from several German universities, a group of chemicals called endocannabinoids may actually be responsible for this familiar great feeling.

(为了验证这一理论，科学家们选择了老鼠进行实验。老鼠和人类在运动后都会释放大量内啡肽和内源性大麻素。在跑步轮上运动后，老鼠看起来既快乐又放松，没有表现出焦虑的迹象。但当给它们服用一种药物来阻断内啡肽时，老鼠的行为似乎没有变化。然而，当用另一种药物阻断它们的内源性大麻素时，它们跑步时的愉悦感症状似乎消失了。)”可知，科学家们在实验中给老鼠服用药物，是为了找出使跑步者兴奋的原因。故选A。 45．词句猜测题。根据第五段“The long-held notion of endorphins being responsible for the runner’s high is false. Endorphins are effective pain relievers, but only when it comes to the pain in your body and muscles you feel after working out (人们长期以来认为内啡肽是导致跑步者兴奋的原因，这种notion是错误的。内啡肽可以有效缓解疼痛，但只有在锻炼后你的身体和肌肉感到疼痛时才有效)”可知，内啡肽在人们锻炼后身体和肌肉感到疼痛时才会起作用，说明内啡肽不会导致跑步者兴奋，因此内啡肽会导致跑步者兴奋的观点是错误的，推测划线单词notion表示“观点”，与Opinion同义。故选C。 46．细节理解题。根据第六段“Regular exercise can improve your mood if you have depression, and it’s especially useful for people with mild to moderate depression (如果患有抑郁症的话，定期锻炼能改善你的情绪，对轻度至中度抑郁症患者尤其有效)”可知，定期锻炼可以帮助缓解抑郁症状。故选D。 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. From Selling Books to Selling Life From the largest female bookstore in Europe to the first detective novel store in Europe, from independent bookstores to large chain ones, Charing Cross Road is the most famous bookstore street in London. 84 Charing Cross Road, published in 1970, tells the story of the New York woman writer Helene Hanff and the London bookseller Frank Percy Doel. 47 Charing Cross Road has thus become a cultural landmark in London, attracting many literary enthusiasts and tourists with its unique literary charm. However, today’s situation is no longer the same. With the closing of a number of chain bookstores, some independent bookstores have begun to think about how to continue the British literary tradition with dignity. 48 Judging from the current business model, those who can survive are completing the transition from selling books to selling life. As the largest independent bookstore in the United Kingdom, Waterstone is currently undergoing design changes by LDS, a British architectural firm. Architect Alex said they focused on improving customer experience and planned to build multiple spaces. “We will have some small rooms full of books, like private study rooms, in which one can discuss his works with the author.” The focus of the future physical bookstore is on creating an atmosphere. 49 Booksellers and authors generally believe that bookstores must develop in the direction of a cultural complex so that people come here for a lot of activities, attending concerts, watching movies, or participating in discussions. Some writers say that physical bookstores can expand their business beyond selling books and provide cultural services to customers. Others believe that bookstores can adopt a membership system. 50 Corresponding membership activities are conducted for children and students, and visiting bookstores should become part of the daily lives of more people as a cultural leisure method. A．Ever since, adaptations brought the book to new audiences and were incredibly popular, though they received mixed critical reviews. B．In addition to discounts, members are given the opportunity to attend lectures, literary gatherings and meetings with authors. C．Recently, British book agents, writers, bookshop operators and other groups gathered here to explore the survival model of the future bookstore. D．After translations into several languages, broadcasting, stage plays, and movies continue to interpret this friendship based on books. E．The literary lifestyle of the British, which is deep rooted in its national character, is bound to survive the crisis of existence. F．Therefore, bars and cafes are an essential part of the bookstore to improve the comprehensive experience for visitors. 【答案】47．D 48．C 49．F 50．B 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍伦敦查令十字街书店街的现状，以及英国书店从卖书向卖生活方式转型、探索未来生存模式的相关情况。 47．根据上文“84 Charing Cross Road, published in 1970, tells the story of the New York woman writer Helene Hanff and the London bookseller Frank Percy Doel.(1970年出版的《查令十字街84号》，讲述了纽约女作家海伦·汉芙与伦敦书商弗兰克·珀西·多尔的故事)”以及下文“Charing Cross Road has thus become a cultural landmark in London, attracting many literary enthusiasts and tourists with its unique literary charm.(查令十字街也因此成为伦敦的文化地标，以其独特的文学魅力吸引着众多文学爱好者和游客)”可知，此处应衔接书籍故事与街道成为地标的因果关联，D选项“After translations into several languages, broadcasting, stage plays, and movies continue to interpret this friendship based on books.(在被翻译成多种语言后，广播、舞台剧和电影不断诠释着这段以书籍为基础的友谊)”既承接上文的书籍故事，又说明其传播带来的影响，为下文成为地标做铺垫，符合语境。故选D项。 48．根据上文“With the closing of a number of chain bookstores, some independent bookstores have begun to think about how to continue the British literary tradition with dignity.(随着多家连锁书店的关闭，一些独立书店开始思考如何有尊严地延续英国文学传统)”可知，此处应体现相关群体为解决问题所做的行动，C选项“Recently, British book agents, writers, bookshop operators and other groups gathered here to explore the survival model of the future bookstore.(近日，英国图书代理商、作家、书店经营者等群体齐聚于此，探讨未来书店的生存模式)”中的explore the survival model与上文think about how to continue相呼应，衔接自然，符合语境。故选C项。 49．根据上文“The focus of the future physical bookstore is on creating an atmosphere.(未来实体书店的重点是营造氛围)”以及下文“Booksellers and authors generally believe that bookstores must develop in the direction of a cultural complex so that people come here for a lot of activities, attending concerts, watching movies, or participating in discussions.(书商和作家普遍认为，书店必须向文化综合体方向发展，让人们来这里参加各种活动，听音乐会、看电影或参与讨论)”可知，此处应体现为营造氛围、丰富体验所做的具体布置，F选项“Therefore, bars and cafes are an essential part of the bookstore to improve the comprehensive experience for visitors.(因此，酒吧和咖啡馆是书店的重要组成部分，以改善游客的综合体验)”中的improve the comprehensive experience与上文creating an atmosphere、下文various activities相呼应，符合语境。故选F项。 50．根据上文“Others believe that bookstores can adopt a membership system.(也有人认为书店可以采用会员制)”以及下文“Corresponding membership activities are conducted for children and students, and visiting bookstores should become part of the daily lives of more people as a cultural leisure method.(针对儿童和学生开展相应的会员活动，让逛书店作为一种文化休闲方式，成为更多人的日常生活一部分)”可知，此处应衔接会员制的具体权益，B选项“In addition to discounts, members are given the opportunity to attend lectures, literary gatherings and meetings with authors.(除折扣外，会员还可获得参加讲座、文学聚会和与作者会面的机会)”中的members呼应上文membership system，activities衔接下文corresponding membership activities，符合语境。故选B项。 IV. Summary Writing (10分) 51．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. Art Gallery Visits The lasting rainy winter is a season that feels heavy with depression. Luckily, I have a way to escape from the winter blues — visiting art galleries. Engaging with art closely, particularly in winter, is a life enhancer and a relief from loneliness, sadness, and frustration. When viewing things we find beautiful, activity in the pleasure and reward centres of the brain goes up. So when I don't have the time, or energy to take on challenging new themes in the gallery, I return to the comfort of my favourites: the blue in David Hockney's swimming pool, Agnes Martin's faint, delicate lines, or John Constable's cloudy Brighton summers. The comforting properties of these artworks are best experienced during winter. And did you know that even on the busiest of days, in the busiest galleries, there is potential for mindfulness? Mindfulness is hard to catch for me — my head feels like a mix of shopping lists, decade-old angers, and random song bits I can't name, but time spent in a gallery is the closest I get to being truly present. Part of this is down to "slow looking”, the practice of taking time to really absorb an artwork rather than giving it a glance, reading the accompanying description, having another quick look and moving on. The experience can be powerful and informative. Often, I visit galleries alone to gather my thoughts. I just want the company of form, colour, material. But sometimes I'll take my daughter. To me, joy was walking her and watching as her eyes widened in curiosity, tiny fingers pointing: "Do you see what I see?” Telling her: "Yes ... but also no.” That we all see these things in a different way is such an important lesson that reaches into every part of our lives. Remembering that perception is personal is precious for me. This knowledge keeps me in a good state. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】范文 Visiting art galleries helps me fight against low spirits (in winter).
