A 【解析】 【原文】 When the Mona Lisa was stolen from the Louvre Museum in 1911, newspaper headlines around the world claimed that the most famous painting in the world had been taken. It was recovered two years later. The Mona Lisa is the portrait of a woman from Florence, Italy, painted by Leonardo da Vinci between 1503 and 1506. Despite knowing this information, art historians have no knowledge of whom Mona Lisa was. They think she may not be a single woman at all; Leonardo may have combined the features of many women, or simply imagined her. If you spend some time studying the Mona Lisa, you will begin to understand what makes it so special. First, you will see how alive the woman in the painting appears. It seems that Leonardo devised some technique that blurred parts of the painting and used softened colours. This makes Mona Lisa’s features slightly unclear. This can be particularly seen in her smile, which gives different impressions on different days. Her mysterious smile has been studied and discussed for centuries. Mona Lisa has no eyebrows because it was fashionable for a beautiful person to have a wide forehead. So, women removed the hairs from their eyebrows as part of a fad. Unfortunately, owing to its age, the painting is now beginning to show some signs of damage. This concerns art historians and art lovers alike, who hope that the painting will survive to provide mystery and beauty for centuries to come. Questions: 11. When was the Mona Lisa recovered? 12. Why does Mona Lisa have no eyebrows? 13. What might the art historians agree with according to the passage? 听下面一段独白，回答以下小题。【此处可播放相关音频，请去附件查看】 14. A. Parking capacity has nearly tripled. B. Severe accidents happened there before. C. It is supervised by a human-shaped robot. D. Cars are better managed than other garages. 15. A. The robot. B. The garage. C. The driver. D. The attendant. 16. A. The favorable service. B. The convenience of parking. C. The safety and reliability. D. The discountable parking fees. 【答案】14. A 15. B 16. D 【解析】 【原文】 Would you trust a robot to park your car? The question will confront New Yorkers in February as the city’s first robotic parking opens in Chinatown. The technology has been successfully applied overseas, but the only other public robotic garage in the United States has been troublesome, dropping vehicles and trapping cars because of technical problems. Nonetheless, the developers of the Chinatown garage are confident with the technology and are counting on it to squeeze 67 cars in an apartment-building basement that would otherwise fit only 24, accomplished by removing a space normally required. A human-shaped robot won’t be stepping into your car to drive it. Rather, the garage itself does the parking. The driver stops the car on a flat platform and gets out. The platform is lowered into the garage, and it is then transported to a vacant parking space by a computer-controlled device similar to an elevator that also runs sideways. There is no human supervision, but an attendant will be on hand to accept cash and explain the system to new users. Parking rates will be attractive, about $400 monthly or $25 per day, according to Ari Milstein, the director of planning for Automation Parking Systems, which is the US subsidiary of a German company. This company has built automated garages in several countries overseas and in the United States for residents of a Washington, D.C. apartment building. Questions: 14. What can we know about the robotic parking in Chinatown in New York? 15. What on earth does the parking? 16. What might attract users most according to Ari Milstein? II.

Each word can only be used once. Note that there is one word more than you need. A. supersize B. literally C. delight D. chew E. snacks F. transform G. release H. brief I. respectively J. damage K. periodical This spring is a very good time to be a bird. In forests across the Midwest and Southeast, the ground is about to erupt with billions of loud, protein-packed cicadas (蝉). They’ll buzz about for a few weeks as they search for mates, providing ____27____ for pretty much every living creature in the forest. This is an especially big year for these red-eyed bugs: Brood XIX and Brood XIII — which pop up every 13 years and 17 years, ____28____ — are emerging at once. While the insect explosion will be ____29____, it will shape forests for years to come. The feast that birds enjoy during these periods ____30____ their families and, in turn, shift the eating and hunting patterns of many other species. These effects send ripples throughout the ecosystem. As one recent study put it, pulses of ____31____ cicadas can “rewire” entire forest food webs. Call it the butterfly cicada effect. This mass eruption, scientists believe, is strategic. The cicada defense strategy is to flood the forests so that predators become so full they ____32____ can’t stomach another bite. That leaves plenty of insects left to mate and lay eggs that will become the next generation of cicadas. This approach seems to work for cicadas, and it’s an absolute ____33____ for birds. Birds can be picky about their food. Those preferences get tossed out during cicada explosions. The birds stop what they’re doing and go to town on the bug buffet. This feeding frenzy can seriously benefit some birds. It’s not just birds that are benefitting. During big emergences, avian predators are eating so many cicadas that they eat much less of everything else — including caterpillars. These animals famously eat leaves. So when birds eat fewer of them, the caterpillars ____34____ their way through more of the forest canopy (冠盖). Getman-Pickering’s recent study measured this too: In the summer of 2021, after Brood X debuted (首次出现), oak trees experienced “a sharp rise in cumulative leaf ____35____,” the paper states. Ultimately, what all of these studies show is that cicadas can ___36___ entire ecosystems in just a few short weeks. Think about that the next time you walk through the woods: The birds, the butterflies, the trees themselves are all shaped, in some way, by one very weird bug. 【答案】27. E 28. I 29. H 30. A 31. K 32. B 33. C 34. D 35. J 36. F 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章主要围绕蝉的大规模出现展开讨论，阐述了蝉对森林生态系统的影响，包括对鸟类、毛虫及树木的作用，展现了蝉在短时间内对整个生态系统的重塑作用。 【27题详解】 考查名词。句意：它们会嗡嗡作响几周，寻找配偶，为森林里几乎所有生物提供零食。空处作providing的宾语，结合前文billions of loud, protein-packed cicadas可知，蝉富含蛋白质，是森林生物的食物，名词snacks“零食；小吃”符合题意。故选E。 【28题详解】 考查副词。句意：对于这些红眼睛的虫子来说，今年尤其特殊：每13年和17年分别出现一次的XIX代蝉和XIII代蝉，将同时出现。空处修饰动词短语pop up，结合every 13 years and 17 years可知，此处指两代蝉分别间隔13年和17年出现，副词respectively“分别地；各自地”符合题意。故选I。 【29题详解】 考查形容词。句意：虽然这种昆虫的爆发是短暂的，但它将在未来几年塑造森林的面貌。空处作表语，结合后文they’ll buzz about for a few weeks和in just a few short weeks可知，蝉的爆发只持续几周，形容词brief“短暂的”符合题意。故选H。 【30题详解】 考查动词。句意：鸟类在这些时期享用的盛宴会壮大它们的家庭，进而改变许多其他物种的觅食和捕猎模式。文章整体为一般现在时，空处作谓语，主语The feast为单数，动词用第三人称单数形式，结合shift the eating and hunting patterns可知，盛宴能让鸟类家庭规模扩大，动词supersize“扩大；使变大”，此处用第三人称单数supersizes。故选A。 【31题详解】 考查形容词。句意：正如最近的一项研究所言，周期性蝉的爆发可以“重新连接”整个森林的食物网。空处作定语修饰cicadas，结合前文pop up every 13 years and 17 years可知，蝉的出现是周期性的，形容词periodical“周期性的”符合题意。故选K。 【32题详解】 考查副词。句意：蝉的防御策略是让森林里充斥着自己的身影，这样捕食者就会吃得太饱，简直再也吃不下一口。空处修饰情态动词can’t，结合predators become so full可知，此处强调捕食者因太饱，确实吃不下了，副词literally“简直；确实”符合题意。故选B。 【33题详解】 考查名词。句意：这种方法对蝉来说似乎很有效，对鸟类来说绝对是一件乐事。空处作表语，结合后文Birds can be picky about their food.

Reading Comprehension Section A (15%) 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. Saddleworth Moor in the north of England is a bare place. It seemed almost wired to me, then, that anyone should ___37___ the building of seven wind turbines( 风力发电机) to produce clean, renewable energy. Surely this was the perfect place to situate them--- basically dull, unattractive to tourists and ----- ___38___ ---windy. Yet Saddleworth is becoming another battleground in an increasingly confusing ___39___ over wind farming and the future of the planet. Typical of this confusion is hearing Professor David Bellamy ___40___ the fight against wind farms. I had always thought of Professor Bellamy as an environmentalist had made the ___41___ assumption that he would be a natural supporter of wind power. However on reflection, Bellamy would be better described as a conservationist, whose main aim is to preserve natural habitats of plants and animals from destruction, rather than a(n) ___42___ on climate change. He has fought against other renewable energies that ___43___ wildlife and wildness, and has described the wind turbines as weapons of mass destruction killing birds and bats. Bellamy, along with other opponents, has argued the wind farms are in fact ___44___, and are only commercially successfully because they are so heavily funded. This argument has been put forward by several newspaper commentators recently , who have then gone to ___45___ nuclear power. This doesn’t take into account years of ___46___ from Greens who claim that nuclear power is both expensive and dangerous. And yet nuclear energy has recently been ___47___ by a leading green scientist , Professor James Lovelock, who was one of the first to draw attention to the problem of climate change. He argues that renewable energy such as wind simply cannot provide sufficient electricity for our energy needs. And so it goes on. There are so many ___48___ claims, each apparently fronted by some outstanding scientists and backed up by a lot of statics. So who’s actually right? What’s the right solution? What ___49___ me is that we will take so long in deciding that it will be too late. The damage will have been done. Yet what I also ___50___ is how convenient these conflicting arguments are. We can avoid making any changes to our personal lifestyles by just doing nothing. Global warming isn’t down to me going to Barcelona by air for the weekend or having a dishwasher or driving everywhere; no, it’s because those people in Saddleworth won’t let us build our ___51___! 37.

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 read. (A) I had always been one of those quiet boys who preferred dreams to the real world. I was, in addition, absurdly shy, and therefore often mistaken for a fool, which upset me deeply. For nothing terrified me more than the prospect of correcting a false impression. Though I was often blamed by mistakes made by my classmates, I never dare to say a word in self-defense. I would simply go home to hide in a corner and cry. My greatest pleasure was to sit alone, reading, and let my thoughts drift away in the stories. My daydreams were in sharp contrast to real life; they were full of adventures and heroic deeds. They left marks on me. There was, for instance, a book about the history of the Roman Empire, in which an ambassador, while negotiating a treaty, was told that he was to accept the terms offered, on pain of death: his response was to plunge his arm into a fire and continue with his deliberations, in absolute calm. Inspired by his courage, I proceeded to test my own powers of resilience by plunging my own hand into the fire, only to burn my fingers badly. I can still see that ambassador, smiling calmly through his pain. Father hated my reading all the time, and sometimes he threw away my books. Some nights he refused to let me turn on the light in my bedroom. But I could always find a way, and after he caught me reading by the light of a string-wick lamp, he gave up and left me to it. There was a time when I tried my hand at writing; indeed, I even made a few little poems, but I quickly abandoned my efforts. No matter what I had bottled up inside me, I was extremely anxious about letting it out, and so my adventures in writing ended. I did, however, carry on painting. There was, I thought, no risk of revealing anything personal. I just took something from the outside world and brought it to life on paper. Sometimes I did hide some personal expression in it, but I made sure that it was visible enough to be seen and trivial enough to be ignored. The first time I showed my painting to my father, he was caught in silence for a while and then he breathed deeply, and said: “My son finally made something.” Then here I am, as a teacher at the Academy of Fine Arts, wondering how everything happened, from my daydreams to painting. 52. The sentence “They left marks on me.” (in paragraph 2) means ________. A. daydreams did nothing but hurt the writer badly B. daydreams influenced the writer's behavior in real life C. the writer had lasting memory of the books he read D. the writer couldn't distinguish books form reality 53. The writer gave up writing because ________. A. it was not as interesting as reading B. he was too shy to reveal his inner world C. he couldn't write good works D. his father didn't like him writing 54. Throughout the passage what can we learn about the writer's father? A. He was impressed with his son's painting B. He didn't like the personality of his son. C. He was touched by his son's persistence in reading. D. He had a high expectation of his son in writing. 55. The passage is mainly about ________. A. the power of reading B. the writer's adventurous daydreams C. reflection on the start of a career D. the efforts made to be painter 【答案】52. B 53. B 54. A 55. C 【解析】 【分析】这是一篇记叙文，作者讲述了自己是一个安静，害羞，爱阅读，喜欢做白日梦的孩子，但这一切都为自己以后的工作奠定了基础。 【52题详解】 句意猜测题。根据第二段句首“My daydreams were in sharp contrast to real life; they were full of adventures and heroic deeds.(我的白日梦和现实形成对比；梦中充满了冒险和英雄的行为)”可知，他的这些白日梦对作者的真实世界有影响。故选B。 【53题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“No matter what I had bottled up inside me, I was extremely anxious about letting it out, and so my adventures in writing ended. (无论我在内心怎样想，我都极度担心将这些思想流露出来。因此我的写作冒险结束了)”可知，作者放弃写作是因为他太内向了，而不愿表露自己的心声。故选B。 【54题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“The first time I showed my painting to my father, he was caught in silence for a while and then he breathed deeply, and said:‘My son finally made something.’(第一次我将我的绘画拿给父亲看的时候，他沉默一会儿，然后深深呼吸一下，说到‘我的儿子终于有出息了’）”可知，他被儿子的绘画打动了，故选A。 【55题详解】 主旨大意题。这篇文章主要讲述了小时候的爱好对后天的工作将会产生很大的影响，故选C。 (B) Let’s say you want to hit the gym more regularly this year. How do you make that happen? Consider putting the habit loop to use. Here’s how it works: A habit is a 3-step process. First, there’s a cue, something that tells your brain to operate automatically. Then there’s a routine. And finally, a reward, which helps your brain learn to desire the behavior. It's what you can use to create-or break-habits of your own. Here’s how to apply it: Choose a cue, like leaving your running shoes by the door, then pick a reward—say, a piece of chocolate when you get home from the gym. That way, the cue and the reward become interconnected. Finally, when you see the shoes, your brain will start longing for the reward, which will make it easier to work out day after day. The best part? In a couple of weeks, you won’t need the chocolate at all. Your brain will come to see the workout itself as the reward. Which is the whole point, right? 56. Which of the following best fits in the box with a “?” in THE HABIT LOOP? A. Pick a new cue. B. Form a new habit. C. Choose a new reward. D. Design a new resolution. 57. What’s the purpose of putting the habit loop to use? A. To test out different kinds of cues. B. To do something as a habit even without rewards. C. To work out the best New Year’s resolution. D. To motivate yourself with satisfactory rewards. 58. “This year when I see the Harry Potter poster, I will read 30 pages of an English novel or an English newspaper in order to watch TV for half an hour.” What is the cue in this resolution? A. The Harry Potter poster. B. Reading 30 pages of an English novel. C. An English newspaper. D. Watching TV for half an hour. 【答案】56. C 57. B 58. A 【解析】 【导语】本文为一篇应用文，文章用“习惯回路图”和文本相结合的形式教导读者怎样在新的一年制定新的决心，从线索到实施到奖励，最终要做到没有奖励也能将它变成习惯。 【56题详解】 推理判断题。根据“?”上方的问句“Do you actually enjoy this reward?”（你真的喜欢这个奖励吗？）及回答“No.”及箭头回到的句子“What motivates you?”（是什么激励了你？）并结合2后面“Choose a Reward”（选择一个奖励）可知，此处表示再重新选择能激励自己的奖励，因此，Choose a new reward（选择一个新的奖励）最适合有问号的方框。故选C项。 【57题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章最后一段“In a couple of weeks, you won’t need the chocolate at all. Your brain will come to see the workout itself as the reward.Which is the whole point, right?”（几周后，你就完全不需要巧克力了。你的大脑会将锻炼本身视为奖励。这才是重点，对吧？）可知使用The Habit Loop的目的是为了促使在即使没有奖励的情况下，也能把做某件事当成一种习惯。故选B项。 【58题详解】 推理判断题。根据Here’s how it works中关键句“First, there’s a cue, something that tells your brain to operate automatically.Then there’s a routine. And finally, a reward, which helps your brain learn to desire the behavior.”（首先，有一个提示，让你的大脑自动运作。然后是常规。最后，奖励，它可以帮助你的大脑学习渴望这种行为。）可知，做决定时，先要有提示，然后是常规做法，最后是奖励。在“今年，当我看到《哈利·波特》海报，我会读30页的英文小说或英文报纸，为了看半个小时的电视。”中，《哈利·波特》海报属于提示物。故选A项。 (C) Researchers and policy makers have long studied pilot schemes(方案) such as public health initiatives or innovative schools. They find the phenomenon of the pilot delivering satisfying results, only to fade at a larger scale. This depressing tendency was called “voltage drop” by the psychiatrist Amy Kilbourne and her coworkers in 2007. The economist John List has been exploring the cause of this voltage drop, first in 2019 paper with Omar Al-Ubaydli and Dana Suskind, then in a recent book, The Voltage Effect. So why does the voltage drop for so many promising ideas? One common problem is that the original effect was not real. Consider a famous experiment, conducted by psychologists Sheena lyengar and Mark Lepper, in which customers in a high-end supermarket were offered free samples of jam from a choice of either 6 or 24 flavours. The wider choice was dramatically de-motivating. Ten times as many people bought jam after being shown the smaller range. It is one of the most famous results in psychology; it has also proved rather difficult to repeat in follow-up experiments. Perhaps the effect is completely non-existent, or perhaps the effect exists but with nothing like the force exhibited in the original experiment. Does anyone seriously believe your local supermarket would sell 10 times as much produce if only it simplified its product line? Another source of voltage drop is when the original effect does not generalise beyond unusual circumstances. My favourite example is the Arch Deluxe, a hamburger launched by McDonald’s with a marketing fanfare(宣传). The fast-food giant had every reason to expect success, because focus groups loved the Arch Deluixe’s bakery-style rolls, peppered bacon and stoneground mustard-mayo dressing. The problems, says List, is that the focus group enthusiasts were not a good guide to the attitude of the typical consumer: “A person who signs up to take part in a McDonald’s focus group is probably someone who is crazy about McDonald’s or loves all kinds of burgers, or both. But the average person, it turns out, goes to McDonald’s for the Big Mac, not a fancier version of one.” Even if the idea is real, and generalises to a wide audience, it may be difficult to repeat the performance once it ventures beyond the control of the original creative team. A pilot school may work well, but it is easier to hire 20 good teachers than 20,000. A brilliant chef can work in only one kitchen at a time. 59. Which statement best describes “voltage drop”？ A. A scheme has been piloted before being really carried out. B. A scheme serves its intended purpose well on a large scale. C. A scheme works well when tested but fails when launched. D. A scheme like a health initiative is designed for a group of people. 60. What can be implied about the experiment conducted by Sheena lyengar and Mark Lepper? A. It lasted too long a time. B. Its conclusion may not be reliable. C. Its follow-up experiments showed opposite results. D. It discouraged people from going to the supermarket. 61. Why does the author use the example of the Arch Deluxe? A. To explain the creativity of an idea matters a lot. B. To explain an idea may not generalise to a larger group. C. To explain McDonald’s is not popular with average people. D. To explain the attitude of the typical consumer varies. 62. What is the text mainly about? A. Why some great ideas fail. B. How to avoid voltage drop. C. How to make a workable plan. D. Why experimentation is important. 【答案】59. C 60. B 61. B 62. A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了“电压下降”现象，说明为什么一些起初很伟大的想法最终却会失败。 【59题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段中“They find the phenomenon of the pilot delivering satisfying results, only to fade at a larger scale. This depressing tendency was called ‘voltage drop’ by the psychiatrist Amy Kilbourne and her coworkers in 2007.(他们发现试点带来令人满意的结果这一现象，不料在更大的范围内消失了。2007年，精神病学家Amy Kilbourne和她的同事将这种令人沮丧的趋势称为‘电压下降’。)”可知，一个方案在测试时很有效，但在启动时就失败了最能最能描述“电压下降”。故选C项。 【60题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中“It is one of the most famous results in psychology; it has also proved rather difficult to repeat in follow-up experiments. Perhaps the effect is completely non-existent, or perhaps the effect exists but with nothing like the force exhibited in the original experiment.(这是心理学中最著名的结果之一；事实也证明，在后续实验中很难重复。也许这种效应是完全不存在的，或者也许这种效应是存在的，但没有像最初的实验中所显示的那样的有力。)”可知，Sheena lyengar和Mark Lepper的实验暗示了结论可能不可靠。故选B项。 【61题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段中“Another source of voltage drop is when the original effect does not generalise beyond unusual circumstances. My favourite example is the Arch Deluxe, a hamburger launched by McDonald’s with a marketing fanfare(宣传). (电压下降的另一个来源是当原来的影响不能推广到异常情况之外时。我最喜欢的例子是Arch Deluxe，这是麦当劳大张旗鼓推出的一款汉堡。)”以及最后一段中“Even if the idea is real, and generalises to a wide audience, it may be difficult to repeat the performance once it ventures beyond the control of the original creative team.(即使这个想法是真实的，并且可以推广到广泛的受众，一旦它超出了原始创意团队的控制范围，就很难重复这种表现。)”可知，作者以Arch Deluxe为例是为了解释一个想法可能不能推广到更大的群体。故选B项。 【62题详解】 主旨大意题。根据全文及最后一段“Even if the idea is real, and generalises to a wide audience, it may be difficult to repeat the performance once it ventures beyond the control of the original creative team. A pilot school may work well, but it is easier to hire 20 good teachers than 20,000. A brilliant chef can work in only one kitchen at a time.(即使这个想法是真实的，并且可以推广到广泛的受众，一旦它超出了原始创意团队的控制范围，就很难重复这种表现。一所试点学校可能运作良好，但雇佣20名好教师比雇佣2万名好教师要容易得多。一个优秀的厨师一次只能在一个厨房工作。)”可知，这篇文章的主要内容是为什么一些起初很伟大的想法最终却会失败。故选A项。 Section C Directions: Read the following passage. 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. Authenticating Sushi … and Picassos A recent study of the seafood industry by Oceana, a conservation group, found that, nationwide, grocery stores mislabeled nearly one-fifth of all the fish they sold. Sushi restaurants were even worse, serving a fish other than what was promised on the menu three-quarters of the time. _____63_____ But some merchants seemed to substitute cheap fish like tilapia for more expensive fare on purpose. DNA bar coding can help uncover such practices. By taking a bit of muscle from a fish and sequencing (测定序列) the DNA inside, scientists can quickly tell one species from another. Bar-coding technology is accessible enough that high-school students have used it to expose fraud (骗局) at restaurants.____64____ And they can see for themselves whether they’re really getting the bluefin tuna they ordered. _____65_____ Billions of dollars’ worth of art changes hands every year, and some experts estimate that 40 percent of it is fake. Professional authentication can help, but recent stories involving works said to have been painted by Jackson Pollock, Amedeo Modigliani, and others have shown that a skillful forger (制作赝品者) can fool even the most respected experts. ____66____ Rather than using the artist’s own DNA — which a thief could lift from clothes, rubbish, or hairs — these labels would contain DNA from another creature, with pieces of synthetic DNA woven in. To authenticate the piece, scientists would take DNA from the label, sequence the synthetic hits, and consult a database. Only if the sequence matched the database record would the piece be pronounced genuine. A. Art is another area where forgery is decreasing due to the resulting profits. B. DNA could be used to expose fraud in the art world, too. C. If the technology continues to evolve, consumers could someday bring handheld bar coders to the table. D. Simple confusion might explain some of the differences, since fish species can be hard to tell apart. E. The DNA molecule is capable of storing vast amounts of data and can survive for thousands of years. F. To solve this problem, some scientists have suggested attaching a small plastic label full of DNA to works of art. 【答案】63. D 64. C 65. B 66. F 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，文章介绍了DNA条形码技术在鉴别海鲜真伪中的应用，并进一步说明该技术也可用于鉴别艺术品伪造。 【63题详解】 根据上文“grocery stores mislabeled nearly one-fifth of all the fish they sold. Sushi restaurants were even worse, serving a fish other than what was promised on the menu three-quarters of the time.(杂货店近五分之一的鱼类贴错标签，寿司店情况更糟，四分之三的菜品所用鱼类与菜单不符)”以及下文“But some merchants seemed to substitute cheap fish like tilapia for more expensive fare on purpose.(但有些商家似乎故意用罗非鱼等廉价鱼替代更贵的品种）”可知，空格处需要先解释部分错误可能是无意的。D选项“Simple confusion might explain some of the differences, since fish species can be hard to tell apart.(有些差异可能只是因为混淆，因为鱼类品种很难区分)”与后文“故意造假”形成转折，逻辑通顺。故选D项。 【64题详解】 根据上文“Bar-coding technology is accessible enough that high-school students have used it to expose fraud at restaurants.(DNA条形码技术易于使用，高中生都能用它揭露餐厅骗局)”以及下文“And they can see for themselves whether they’re really getting the bluefin tuna they ordered.（消费者可以亲自确认自己吃到的是否是点的蓝鳍金枪鱼)”可知，空格处需要展望未来消费者可直接使用该技术。C选项“If the technology continues to evolve, consumers could someday bring handheld bar coders to the table.（如果技术继续发展，消费者有一天可以携带手持条形码识别器到餐桌）”承上启下。故选C项。 【65题详解】 根据下文“Billions of dollars’ worth of art changes hands every year, and some experts estimate that 40 percent of it is fake.(每年有数十亿美元的艺术品易手，专家估计其中40%是赝品)”可知，本段从海鲜造假转向艺术品造假。B选项“DNA could be used to expose fraud in the art world, too.(DNA也可以用来揭露艺术界的造假行为)”承上启下，引出艺术品鉴定话题。故选B项。 【66题详解】 根据下文“Rather than using the artist’s own DNA — which a thief could lift from clothes, rubbish, or hairs — these labels would contain DNA from another creature, with pieces of synthetic DNA woven in.(这些标签并不会使用艺术家自身的DNA——小偷本可以从衣物、垃圾或毛发中窃取这种DNA——而是包含来自其他生物的DNA，并掺入合成DNA片段)”可知，空格处需要提出给艺术品加DNA标签的解决方案。F选项“To solve this problem, some scientists have suggested attaching a small plastic label full of DNA to works of art.(为解决这个问题，一些科学家建议给艺术品贴上含有DNA的小型塑料标签)”引出后文具体的标签技术。故选F项。 第II卷(26.5分) IV.

For the blanks with a given word, fill in each blank with the proper form of the given word; for the other blanks, use one word that best fits each blank. Feeling a little blue lately? A handful of recent research suggests you’re not alone. Thankfully, there may be something — or several things — you can do about it. Researchers ____17____(know) for decades that certain activities make us feel better, and they’re just beginning to understand ____18____ happens in the brain to boost our mood. A study published in the journal Nature on July 11 found that ____19____ people were given the option of spending money on themselves or another person, those who spent it on someone else had more activity in a brain area linked to the subjective feeling of happiness. We’ve all been there. It’s been a bad day and you feel the urge to buy your favorite comfort food or snag a new pair of shoes. However, studies suggest you’ll feel ____20____(happy) if you spend that money on someone else. The new study in Nature suggests that people feel happier after doing something generous ____21____ activity in the brain regions involved in ____22____(help) others seems to override the activity in the regions linked with personal reward. A 2008 experiment supports these findings — for that study, volunteers ____23____(split) into two groups and either splurged on (挥霍) themselves or another person. Those who got something for others were shown to be happier than those who bought something for ____24____. Donating your time ____25____ have the same effect. In a recent review of 40 studies done over the last 20 years, researchers found that volunteering was one of the most successful ways to boost psychological health. Volunteering was found ____26____(link) with a reduced risk of depression, a higher amount of overall satisfaction, and even a reduced risk of death from of a physical illness as a consequence of mental distress. Section B Vocabulary (1’*10=10’) Directions: Complete the following paragraphs by using the words in the box. Each word can only be used once. Note that there is one word more than you need. A. supersize B. literally C. delight D. chew E. snacks F. transform G. release H. brief I. respectively J. damage K. periodical This spring is a very good time to be a bird. In forests across the Midwest and Southeast, the ground is about to erupt with billions of loud, protein-packed cicadas (蝉). They’ll buzz about for a few weeks as they search for mates, providing ____27____ for pretty much every living creature in the forest. This is an especially big year for these red-eyed bugs: Brood XIX and Brood XIII — which pop up every 13 years and 17 years, ____28____ — are emerging at once. While the insect explosion will be ____29____, it will shape forests for years to come. The feast that birds enjoy during these periods ____30____ their families and, in turn, shift the eating and hunting patterns of many other species. These effects send ripples throughout the ecosystem. As one recent study put it, pulses of ____31____ cicadas can “rewire” entire forest food webs. Call it the butterfly cicada effect. This mass eruption, scientists believe, is strategic. The cicada defense strategy is to flood the forests so that predators become so full they ____32____ can’t stomach another bite. That leaves plenty of insects left to mate and lay eggs that will become the next generation of cicadas. This approach seems to work for cicadas, and it’s an absolute ____33____ for birds. Birds can be picky about their food. Those preferences get tossed out during cicada explosions. The birds stop what they’re doing and go to town on the bug buffet. This feeding frenzy can seriously benefit some birds. It’s not just birds that are benefitting. During big emergences, avian predators are eating so many cicadas that they eat much less of everything else — including caterpillars. These animals famously eat leaves. So when birds eat fewer of them, the caterpillars ____34____ their way through more of the forest canopy (冠盖). Getman-Pickering’s recent study measured this too: In the summer of 2021, after Brood X debuted (首次出现), oak trees experienced “a sharp rise in cumulative leaf ____35____,” the paper states. Ultimately, what all of these studies show is that cicadas can ___36___ entire ecosystems in just a few short weeks. Think about that the next time you walk through the woods: The birds, the butterflies, the trees themselves are all shaped, in some way, by one very weird bug. III. Reading Comprehension Section A (15%) 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. Saddleworth Moor in the north of England is a bare place. It seemed almost wired to me, then, that anyone should ___37___ the building of seven wind turbines( 风力发电机) to produce clean, renewable energy. Surely this was the perfect place to situate them--- basically dull, unattractive to tourists and ----- ___38___ ---windy. Yet Saddleworth is becoming another battleground in an increasingly confusing ___39___ over wind farming and the future of the planet. Typical of this confusion is hearing Professor David Bellamy ___40___ the fight against wind farms. I had always thought of Professor Bellamy as an environmentalist had made the ___41___ assumption that he would be a natural supporter of wind power. However on reflection, Bellamy would be better described as a conservationist, whose main aim is to preserve natural habitats of plants and animals from destruction, rather than a(n) ___42___ on climate change. He has fought against other renewable energies that ___43___ wildlife and wildness, and has described the wind turbines as weapons of mass destruction killing birds and bats. Bellamy, along with other opponents, has argued the wind farms are in fact ___44___, and are only commercially successfully because they are so heavily funded. This argument has been put forward by several newspaper commentators recently , who have then gone to ___45___ nuclear power. This doesn’t take into account years of ___46___ from Greens who claim that nuclear power is both expensive and dangerous. And yet nuclear energy has recently been ___47___ by a leading green scientist , Professor James Lovelock, who was one of the first to draw attention to the problem of climate change. He argues that renewable energy such as wind simply cannot provide sufficient electricity for our energy needs. And so it goes on. There are so many ___48___ claims, each apparently fronted by some outstanding scientists and backed up by a lot of statics. So who’s actually right? What’s the right solution? What ___49___ me is that we will take so long in deciding that it will be too late. The damage will have been done. Yet what I also ___50___ is how convenient these conflicting arguments are. We can avoid making any changes to our personal lifestyles by just doing nothing. Global warming isn’t down to me going to Barcelona by air for the weekend or having a dishwasher or driving everywhere; no, it’s because those people in Saddleworth won’t let us build our ___51___! 37. A. take over B. call for C. look into D. object to 38. A. vice versa B. or rather C. above all D. to date 39. A. debate B. concern C. advantage D. control 40.

A. relieves B. amazes C. disappoints D. worries 50. A. predict B. recognize C. question D. ski 51. A. wind farms B. power plants C. animal habitats D. nuclear engines Section B Reading Comprehension (1.5’*15=22.5’) 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 read. (A) I had always been one of those quiet boys who preferred dreams to the real world. I was, in addition, absurdly shy, and therefore often mistaken for a fool, which upset me deeply. For nothing terrified me more than the prospect of correcting a false impression. Though I was often blamed by mistakes made by my classmates, I never dare to say a word in self-defense. I would simply go home to hide in a corner and cry. My greatest pleasure was to sit alone, reading, and let my thoughts drift away in the stories. My daydreams were in sharp contrast to real life; they were full of adventures and heroic deeds. They left marks on me. There was, for instance, a book about the history of the Roman Empire, in which an ambassador, while negotiating a treaty, was told that he was to accept the terms offered, on pain of death: his response was to plunge his arm into a fire and continue with his deliberations, in absolute calm. Inspired by his courage, I proceeded to test my own powers of resilience by plunging my own hand into the fire, only to burn my fingers badly. I can still see that ambassador, smiling calmly through his pain. Father hated my reading all the time, and sometimes he threw away my books. Some nights he refused to let me turn on the light in my bedroom. But I could always find a way, and after he caught me reading by the light of a string-wick lamp, he gave up and left me to it. There was a time when I tried my hand at writing; indeed, I even made a few little poems, but I quickly abandoned my efforts. No matter what I had bottled up inside me, I was extremely anxious about letting it out, and so my adventures in writing ended. I did, however, carry on painting. There was, I thought, no risk of revealing anything personal. I just took something from the outside world and brought it to life on paper. Sometimes I did hide some personal expression in it, but I made sure that it was visible enough to be seen and trivial enough to be ignored. The first time I showed my painting to my father, he was caught in silence for a while and then he breathed deeply, and said: “My son finally made something.” Then here I am, as a teacher at the Academy of Fine Arts, wondering how everything happened, from my daydreams to painting. 52. The sentence “They left marks on me.” (in paragraph 2) means ________. A. daydreams did nothing but hurt the writer badly B. daydreams influenced the writer's behavior in real life C the writer had lasting memory of the books he read D. the writer couldn't distinguish books form reality 53. The writer gave up writing because ________. A. it was not as interesting as reading B. he was too shy to reveal his inner world C. he couldn't write good works D. his father didn't like him writing 54. Throughout the passage what can we learn about the writer's father? A. He was impressed with his son's painting B. He didn't like the personality of his son. C. He was touched by his son's persistence in reading. D. He had a high expectation of his son in writing. 55. The passage is mainly about ________. A. the power of reading B. the writer's adventurous daydreams C. reflection on the start of a career D. the efforts made to be painter (B) Let’s say you want to hit the gym more regularly this year. How do you make that happen? Consider putting the habit loop to use. Here’s how it works: A habit is a 3-step process. First, there’s a cue, something that tells your brain to operate automatically. Then there’s a routine. And finally, a reward, which helps your brain learn to desire the behavior. It's what you can use to create-or break-habits of your own. Here’s how to apply it: Choose a cue, like leaving your running shoes by the door, then pick a reward—say, a piece of chocolate when you get home from the gym. That way, the cue and the reward become interconnected. Finally, when you see the shoes, your brain will start longing for the reward, which will make it easier to work out day after day. The best part? In a couple of weeks, you won’t need the chocolate at all. Your brain will come to see the workout itself as the reward. Which is the whole point, right? 56. Which of the following best fits in the box with a “?” in THE HABIT LOOP? A. Pick a new cue. B. Form a new habit. C. Choose a new reward. D. Design a new resolution. 57. What’s the purpose of putting the habit loop to use? A. To test out different kinds of cues. B. To do something as a habit even without rewards. C. To work out the best New Year’s resolution. D. To motivate yourself with satisfactory rewards. 58. “This year when I see the Harry Potter poster, I will read 30 pages of an English novel or an English newspaper in order to watch TV for half an hour.” What is the cue in this resolution? A. The Harry Potter poster. B. Reading 30 pages of an English novel. C. An English newspaper. D. Watching TV for half an hour. (C) Researchers and policy makers have long studied pilot schemes(方案) such as public health initiatives or innovative schools. They find the phenomenon of the pilot delivering satisfying results, only to fade at a larger scale. This depressing tendency was called “voltage drop” by the psychiatrist Amy Kilbourne and her coworkers in 2007. The economist John List has been exploring the cause of this voltage drop, first in 2019 paper with Omar Al-Ubaydli and Dana Suskind, then in a recent book, The Voltage Effect. So why does the voltage drop for so many promising ideas? One common problem is that the original effect was not real. Consider a famous experiment, conducted by psychologists Sheena lyengar and Mark Lepper, in which customers in a high-end supermarket were offered free samples of jam from a choice of either 6 or 24 flavours. The wider choice was dramatically de-motivating. Ten times as many people bought jam after being shown the smaller range. It is one of the most famous results in psychology; it has also proved rather difficult to repeat in follow-up experiments. Perhaps the effect is completely non-existent, or perhaps the effect exists but with nothing like the force exhibited in the original experiment. Does anyone seriously believe your local supermarket would sell 10 times as much produce if only it simplified its product line? Another source of voltage drop is when the original effect does not generalise beyond unusual circumstances. My favourite example is the Arch Deluxe, a hamburger launched by McDonald’s with a marketing fanfare(宣传). The fast-food giant had every reason to expect success, because focus groups loved the Arch Deluixe’s bakery-style rolls, peppered bacon and stoneground mustard-mayo dressing. The problems, says List, is that the focus group enthusiasts were not a good guide to the attitude of the typical consumer: “A person who signs up to take part in a McDonald’s focus group is probably someone who is crazy about McDonald’s or loves all kinds of burgers, or both. But the average person, it turns out, goes to McDonald’s for the Big Mac, not a fancier version of one.” Even if the idea is real, and generalises to a wide audience, it may be difficult to repeat the performance once it ventures beyond the control of the original creative team. A pilot school may work well, but it is easier to hire 20 good teachers than 20,000. A brilliant chef can work in only one kitchen at a time. 59. Which statement best describes “voltage drop”？ A. A scheme has been piloted before being really carried out. B. A scheme serves its intended purpose well on a large scale. C. A scheme works well when tested but fails when launched. D. A scheme like a health initiative is designed for a group of people. 60. What can be implied about the experiment conducted by Sheena lyengar and Mark Lepper? A. It lasted too long a time. B. Its conclusion may not be reliable. C. Its follow-up experiments showed opposite results. D. It discouraged people from going to the supermarket. 61. Why does the author use the example of the Arch Deluxe? A. To explain the creativity of an idea matters a lot. B. To explain an idea may not generalise to a larger group. C. To explain McDonald’s is not popular with average people. D. To explain the attitude of the typical consumer varies. 62. What is the text mainly about? A. Why some great ideas fail. B. How to avoid voltage drop. C. How to make a workable plan. D. Why experimentation is important. Section C Directions: Read the following passage. 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. Authenticating Sushi … and Picassos A recent study of the seafood industry by Oceana, a conservation group, found that, nationwide, grocery stores mislabeled nearly one-fifth of all the fish they sold. Sushi restaurants were even worse, serving a fish other than what was promised on the menu three-quarters of the time. _____63_____ But some merchants seemed to substitute cheap fish like tilapia for more expensive fare on purpose. DNA bar coding can help uncover such practices. By taking a bit of muscle from a fish and sequencing (测定序列) the DNA inside, scientists can quickly tell one species from another. Bar-coding technology is accessible enough that high-school students have used it to expose fraud (骗局) at restaurants.____64____ And they can see for themselves whether they’re really getting the bluefin tuna they ordered. _____65_____ Billions of dollars’ worth of art changes hands every year, and some experts estimate that 40 percent of it is fake. Professional authentication can help, but recent stories involving works said to have been painted by Jackson Pollock, Amedeo Modigliani, and others have shown that a skillful forger (制作赝品者) can fool even the most respected experts. ____66____ Rather than using the artist’s own DNA — which a thief could lift from clothes, rubbish, or hairs — these labels would contain DNA from another creature, with pieces of synthetic DNA woven in. To authenticate the piece, scientists would take DNA from the label, sequence the synthetic hits, and consult a database. Only if the sequence matched the database record would the piece be pronounced genuine. A. Art is another area where forgery is decreasing due to the resulting profits. B. DNA could be used to expose fraud in the art world, too. C. If the technology continues to evolve, consumers could someday bring handheld bar coders to the table. D. Simple confusion might explain some of the differences, since fish species can be hard to tell apart. E. The DNA molecule is capable of storing vast amounts of data and can survive for thousands of years. F. To solve this problem, some scientists have suggested attaching a small plastic label full of DNA to works of art. 第II卷(26.5分) IV.
