阅读下面三段材料,根据材料内容和要求,从题后的选项中选择一个最佳答案。
A
When two people meet, there are a lot of ways of greeting. The ways of greeting are not always the same in different countries.
In America, two people usually greet each other with a handshake. It is a way to show respect to the other person. Athletes from opposite teams shake hands before a game for the same reason. However, most Americans don’t shake hands when they meet people they have already known well. When American friends met each other, they might only wave (挥手), or maybe just nod their heads.
In New Zealand, there is a special way of greeting called “Hongi”. In the greeting, two people press their noses and foreheads (前额) together and close their eyes. This is an old tradition that comes from the Maori, who were the first people to live in New Zealand. Even today, many New Zealanders still press their foreheads when they meet.
Kissing is sometimes used as a way to greet someone. In some countries, important people used to wear special rings. It was the custom for visitors to kiss these rings when they came for a meeting. In France, when people met, they sometimes kiss each other on the face.
In Japan, people bow to each other every time they meet. Even family members bow to each other. How low to bow depends on how respected the other person is.
Today, new ways of greeting are created all the time. People can do this with a quick “hi”, a handshake, or even a simple smile. The important thing is that the people they are greeting understand them.
11. The underlined part “the same reason” refers to ________.
A. showing love B. showing respect C. thanking each other D. introducing each other

A. it’s impolite to press one’s nose in New Zealand

A. It depends on how respected the other person is.
B. It depends on how old the other person is.
C. It depends on how successful the other person is.
D. It depends on how tall the other person is.
14. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?
A. It’s OK to just nod heads when American friends meet.
B. Family members in Japan do not bow to each other.
C. In some countries, rings were once used for kissing.
D. The ways of greeting are changing over time.

Paper is one of the most important products ever invented by man. The invention of paper meant that more people could be educated because more books could be printed. Paper provided an important way to spread information.
According to Chinese written historical records, paper was made in about AD 105 by Cai Lun, an official during the Han Dynasty. He took the inner bark of a tree and bamboo, mixed them with water, and pounded them with a wooden tool. He then put this mixture onto a piece of cloth and let the water through, leaving only the fibers(纤维)on the cloth. After it dried, Cai Lun discovered that he had created a good writing thing—paper. It was easy to make and take.
Chinese papermaking was introduced to Korea and Vietnam and later to Japan at the beginning of the 3rd century. It was a valued export in Silk Road trading, but the papermaking process was kept secret.
During the Tang Dynasty and the Song Dynasty, different kinds of paper were developed including bamboo paper and xuan paper.
By the end of the 7th century, the papermaking process reached India, Nepal, Pakistan, and Bangladesh. In about AD 751 after an important battle, the secret of papermaking was gotten from two Chinese prisoners(囚犯)caught by the enemies. The invention was then spread to Europe.
After many years, the invention had been spread all over the world and people thought it was one of the most important inventions. Today, both paper and paper money are used in all corners.
16. More people got the chance to be ________ after the invention of paper.
A. introduced B. provided C. educated D. treated
17. The underlined word “pounded” in the second paragraph might mean “________” in Chinese.
A. 按压 B. 晾晒 C. 覆盖 D. 捣碎
18. Other countries didn’t know ________ before Chinese papermaking was introduced to them.
A. the papermaking process B. the valued export
C. the xuan paper D. the Silk Road trading
19. From Paragraph 5, we can learn that ________.
A. the two Chinese prisoners were killed by Europeans
B. the methods of papermaking had been spread all over the world
C. the methods of papermaking were spread only in Asia
D. the Chinese didn’t offer the methods of making paper to Europeans

C
One of my favorite inventions in recent years is face unlocking. Without needing to lift my fingers and type in the numbers, I can get straight into my phone with just a look. Now there is a new technology designed to replace the password called the “passkey”!
Passkeys turn your phone into something a bit like a wallet, which you can use to store membership cards to all of your apps and services. When you need to log in to a website, you’ll just have to tap a button on your phone and your passkey wallet will let you in without any worry.
And how does it keep this wallet safe? By using the same “biometric (生物统计)” check your phone uses — a face scan or a fingerprint that cannot easily beforged.
Passkeys won’t just save us from having to remember passwords but, perhaps logging in with a passkey will actually be much safer than typing a password. This is because it uses a technology called “public key” cryptography (密码) which is one of the building blocks of the Internet — and is how computers have securely communicated with other computers for so many years. To put it simply, it works a bit like a key, instead of a password.
With a password, the website has to keep a database (数据库) of everyone’s passwords to check against when you log in. But with a passkey, when you create your account on a website, it will effectively create a new lock and key. The website will keep the lock,★.
I think it’s a really clever idea, and that passkeys are going to make our digital lives even safer. So, next time you’re complaining that you can’t remember your password, don’t worry too much. It won’t always be like this!
21. The writer explains how the passkeys work by ________.
A. giving examples B. listing numbers
C. raising questions D. comparing similar things
22. The underlined word “forged” in paragraph 3 means ________.
A. copied B. printed C. canceled D. recorded
23. The passkeys are much safer than passwords because of ________.
A. biometric check B. cryptography technology
C. blocks of Internet D. secure communication
24. Which of the following can be put in★?
A. but your phone is safer B. so you won’t forget the key
C. or it will remember the key D. and only your phone will have the key
25. The passage is written to ________.
A. show passkeys are safer than passwords B. introduce science development
C. report the invention of face unlocking D. describe digital lives
【答案】21. D 22. A 23. B 24. D 25. A
【解析】
【导语】本文主要介绍了新技术——密钥登录。它将取代密码,且比密码更安全。
【21题详解】
细节理解题。根据第1段“One of my favorite inventions in recent years...there is a new technology designed to replace the password called the ‘passkey’!”可知,作者通过比较类似的东西来解释密钥是如何工作的,故选D。
【22题详解】
词义猜测题。根据第3段“And how does it keep this wallet safe? By using the same ‘biometric (生物统计)’ check your phone uses — a face scan or a fingerprint that cannot easily be forged.”可知,此处表示面部扫描或不易被伪造的指纹,所以与“copied”的意思相同,都是“复制的”。故选A。
【23题详解】
细节理解题。根据第4段“logging in with a passkey will actually be much safer than typing a password. This is because it uses a technology called ‘public key’ cryptography”可知,由于加密技术,密钥比密码安全得多,故选B。
【24题详解】
推理判断题。根据第5段“But with a passkey, when you create your account on a website, it will effectively create a new lock and key. The website will keep the lock,”可知,提到“当您在网站上创建账户时,它将有效地创建新的锁和钥匙。网站将保持锁定”,此处应说“只有你的手机才会有钥匙”符合题意,D选项可以放入★处,故选D。
【25题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第1段“Now there is a new technology designed to replace the password called the ‘passkey’!”以及通读全文可知,本文主要介绍了新技术——密钥登录。它将取代密码,且比密码更安全。作者认为密钥让我们的数字生活更安全。因此写这篇文章是为了表明密钥比密码更安全,故选A。

【26题详解】
句意:他们的孩子就不会知道钱来自于努力工作。根据“their children won’t learn that money… from hard work”可知,这里表达的是“来自”,英语是come from,而句子主语是the money,是不可数名词,所以这里的动词应该用三单,故填comes。
【27题详解】

【29题详解】

【30题详解】
句意:许多父母不会让孩子们做家务。根据“Many parents don’t let the children do ”及备选词可知,此处指做家务,英文表达为do housework,故填housework。
【31题详解】
句意:他们应该努力学习,学好功课。根据“They should study hard and do…in their lessons”可知,这里表达的是“学好功课”,空格指的是“好的”,在句中修饰的是动词do,所以这里应该用副词,故填well。
【32题详解】
句意:如果父母继续这样做,孩子们只会学会饭来张口衣来伸手。“parents go on doing this”是“their children will only learn to open their mouths to be fed and stretch out their arms to be dressed every day”的肯定条件,用if引导条件状语从句,故填If。
【33题详解】
句意:孩子们长大了,什么也干不了。根据“ they won’t even find a job”可知,什么都做不了,甚至无法找工作,这里表达的是“没有事情”,英语是nothing,故填nothing。

句意:父母应该教孩子如何做家务,因为这有助于他们形成良好的习惯,如自己工作。此处用疑问词+动词不定式作宾语,备选词how符合,故填how。
【35题详解】
句意:父母应该教孩子如何做家务,因为这有助于他们形成良好的习惯,如自己工作。根据“because it helps them form good habits, such as … by themselves”及备选词可知,养成好习惯例如可以自己工作,work“工作”,as是介词,后接动名词,故填working。

【详解】句意:我的儿子,继续努力学习,你会在学业上逐渐取得进步。句中需要修饰动词make progress,修饰动词应该用副词,括号内给出的形容词gradual对应的副词形式为gradually。
60. The boy got up late in the past, but now he gets used to ________ (get) up early.
【答案】getting
【解析】
【详解】句意:这个男孩过去常常起得晚,但现在他习惯了早起。get意为“变得;到达”,此处与up构成短语get up,表示“起床”。get used to doing sth为固定搭配,表示“习惯于做某事”,其中to是介词,后接动名词作宾语。故填getting。

Are teenagers allowed to go out on weekends?

Teenagers should also have enough time to have a good rest on weekends. Also, teenagers are supposed to help their parents do some housework.
In my opinion, we teenagers need to go out with our friends for fun so that we can relax ourselves after a busy week. And we can share ideas with each other. What's more, we can also take some exercise together to keep healthy. So I think teenagers should be allowed to go out on weekends.

A
When two people meet, there are a lot of ways of greeting. The ways of greeting are not always the same in different countries.
In America, two people usually greet each other with a handshake. It is a way to show respect to the other person. Athletes from opposite teams shake hands before a game for the same reason. However, most Americans don’t shake hands when they meet people they have already known well. When American friends met each other, they might only wave (挥手), or maybe just nod their heads.
In New Zealand, there is a special way of greeting called “Hongi”. In the greeting, two people press their noses and foreheads (前额) together and close their eyes. This is an old tradition that comes from the Maori, who were the first people to live in New Zealand. Even today, many New Zealanders still press their foreheads when they meet.
Kissing is sometimes used as a way to greet someone. In some countries, important people used to wear special rings. It was the custom for visitors to kiss these rings when they came for a meeting. In France, when people met, they sometimes kiss each other on the face.
In Japan, people bow to each other every time they meet. Even family members bow to each other. How low to bow depends on how respected the other person is.
Today, new ways of greeting are created all the time. People can do this with a quick “hi”, a handshake, or even a simple smile. The important thing is that the people they are greeting understand them.

Paper is one of the most important products ever invented by man. The invention of paper meant that more people could be educated because more books could be printed. Paper provided an important way to spread information.
According to Chinese written historical records, paper was made in about AD 105 by Cai Lun, an official during the Han Dynasty. He took the inner bark of a tree and bamboo, mixed them with water, and pounded them with a wooden tool. He then put this mixture onto a piece of cloth and let the water through, leaving only the fibers(纤维)on the cloth. After it dried, Cai Lun discovered that he had created a good writing thing—paper. It was easy to make and take.
Chinese papermaking was introduced to Korea and Vietnam and later to Japan at the beginning of the 3rd century. It was a valued export in Silk Road trading, but the papermaking process was kept secret.
During the Tang Dynasty and the Song Dynasty, different kinds of paper were developed including bamboo paper and xuan paper.
By the end of the 7th century, the papermaking process reached India, Nepal, Pakistan, and Bangladesh. In about AD 751 after an important battle, the secret of papermaking was gotten from two Chinese prisoners(囚犯)caught by the enemies. The invention was then spread to Europe.
After many years, the invention had been spread all over the world and people thought it was one of the most important inventions. Today, both paper and paper money are used in all corners.
16. More people got the chance to be ________ after the invention of paper.
A. introduced B. provided C. educated D. treated
17. The underlined word “pounded” in the second paragraph might mean “________” in Chinese.
A. 按压 B. 晾晒 C. 覆盖 D. 捣碎
18. Other countries didn’t know ________ before Chinese papermaking was introduced to them.
A. the papermaking process B. the valued export
C. the xuan paper D. the Silk Road trading
19. From Paragraph 5, we can learn that ________.
A. the two Chinese prisoners were killed by Europeans
B. the methods of papermaking had been spread all over the world
C. the methods of papermaking were spread only in Asia
D. the Chinese didn’t offer the methods of making paper to Europeans
20. What’s the passage mainly about?
A. The invention and spread of paper. B. The materials used to make paper.
C. The famous ancient inventor Cai Lun. D. Different kinds of paper.
C
One of my favorite inventions in recent years is face unlocking. Without needing to lift my fingers and type in the numbers, I can get straight into my phone with just a look. Now there is a new technology designed to replace the password called the “passkey”!
Passkeys turn your phone into something a bit like a wallet, which you can use to store membership cards to all of your apps and services. When you need to log in to a website, you’ll just have to tap a button on your phone and your passkey wallet will let you in without any worry.
And how does it keep this wallet safe? By using the same “biometric (生物统计)” check your phone uses — a face scan or a fingerprint that cannot easily beforged.
Passkeys won’t just save us from having to remember passwords but, perhaps logging in with a passkey will actually be much safer than typing a password. This is because it uses a technology called “public key” cryptography (密码) which is one of the building blocks of the Internet — and is how computers have securely communicated with other computers for so many years. To put it simply, it works a bit like a key, instead of a password.
With a password, the website has to keep a database (数据库) of everyone’s passwords to check against when you log in. But with a passkey, when you create your account on a website, it will effectively create a new lock and key. The website will keep the lock,★.
I think it’s a really clever idea, and that passkeys are going to make our digital lives even safer. So, next time you’re complaining that you can’t remember your password, don’t worry too much. It won’t always be like this!
21. The writer explains how the passkeys work by ________.
A. giving examples B. listing numbers
C. raising questions D. comparing similar things
22. The underlined word “forged” in paragraph 3 means ________.
A. copied B. printed C. canceled D. recorded
23. The passkeys are much safer than passwords because of ________.
A. biometric check B. cryptography technology
C. blocks of Internet D. secure communication
24. Which of the following can be put in★?
A. but your phone is safer B. so you won’t forget the key
C. or it will remember the key D. and only your phone will have the key
25. The passage is written to ________.
A. show passkeys are safer than passwords B. introduce science development
C. report the invention of face unlocking D. describe digital lives
