A
No two snowflakes (雪花) are the same. They have different shapes and fall in four different ways. By watching how they “dance”, we can learn the weather conditions (状况).
It’s hard to see snowflakes dancing with the naked eye (裸眼). Scientists can use special cameras to watch them. Weathermen can use radars (雷达) to study these dances to learn about the weather.
How they dance:
What’s the weather like?
Fall in a line: They fall slowly.
Zigzag (之字形路线): They shake a little back and forth (前后).
Snowflakes dancing like this may melt and become rain.
Spin: They fall fast.
Spin and zigzag: They bump into (撞上) each other and become bigger ones.
Snowflakes falling in these ways might bring a lot of snow.
31. What can we learn by watching snowflakes “dance”?
A. The size of the snowflakes. B. The weather conditions.
C. The colour of the snowflakes. D. The temperature of the snowflakes.
32. What might happen if snowflakes spin and zigzag?
A. They will fall very slowly. B. They will become smaller.
C. They might bring a lot of snow. D. They will melt and become rain.
33. How do scientists watch snowflakes “dance”?
A. By using radars. B. By using robots.
C. By using their naked eyes. D. By using special cameras.
B
Villages in China have enjoyed their development in a digital (数字的) way in recent years. With the help of digital technology, villagers are living an easier and happier life.
Farming in the past was not an easy job. Farmers worked hard all year round. At the same time, they usually found it difficult to solve problems like plant diseases and pests (害虫). Now, there have been big changes in farming. For example, in Dayi County, Sichuan Province, AI machines help local farmers know when and how to fertilize (施肥于) fields and kill pests. In this way, they make farmers work more easily with less time and energy.
Thanks to the Internet, a new business called rural e-commerce (乡村电子商务) grows. Selling fresh fruit and vegetables to cities is faster. The business also helps villagers live a digital life. They can get many things done on different kinds of apps. They can also use drones to help with their farm work.
More visitors travel in beautiful villages because of digital technology. A good example is Huacheng Town, Guangdong Province. Visitors can know where to park their cars for free, when to book a ticket easily and what to buy online. They can also enjoy the view of nearly every part of the town by using VR.
34. According to Paragraph 2, we know AI machines can help farmers ________.
A. water the crops B. harvest the crops
C. know when and how to fertilize farmland D. save time and energy on farming
35. In Paragraph 4, the writer gives an example in order to ________.
A. tell where to park the cars B. teach how to buy a ticket online
C. explain the importance of villages D. show digital technology helps develop tourism
36. What is the structure of this passage?(①=Paragraph 1, ②=Paragraph 2...)
A. B. C. D.
37. What is the best title of this passage?
A. Farming in villages B. Tourism in villages
C. The digital technology in villages D. A new business in villages
C
While tidying my room, I found an old Hanfu, a gift from a friend. It led me to buy matching shoes and earrings. This reminded me of the “birdcage effect (鸟笼效应)”, a psychological phenomenon (心理现象) when getting one thing makes you want to get more things to go with it.
The story behind the birdcage effect is quite fascinating. One day, the psychologist James made a bet (打赌) with his friend Carlson, saying that Carlson would keep a bird soon. Hearing this, Carlson said, “Are you kidding? I have never had this idea.” Later, James gave Carlson a birdcage on his birthday. When friends who visited Carlson’s house saw the cage, they all thought that Carlson had raised birds. Carlson was tired of explaining, and finally, he bought a bird.
As online shopping is popular today, the birdcage effect becomes more common, especially among students. For example, a friend of mine wanted to buy a good pen to match a nice notebook that her sister had given her. She believed it would make her enjoy reading and note-taking. ▲
However, she saw it differently. The beautiful notebook led her to get a good pen, buy a book she liked and start note-taking. She regarded it as a wonderful example of using the birdcage effect positively (正面地) to develop positive habits.
In life, we will meet many forms of the “birdcage effect”. If it leads to unnecessary spending, it’s negative (负面的). We should stop it in time and keep a balance. But if it’s a positive birdcage effect that encourages us to grow and develop, we should see it as a chance to help us achieve our goals. You will find that the “birdcage effect” is not scary at all.
38. What does the underlined phrase “this idea” refer to?
A. Making a bet. B. Telling a joke. C. Buying a birdcage. D. Keeping a bird.
39. According to the passage, what can be seen as “birdcage effect”?
A. Tim wrote some words on the white wall and soon the wall was full of drawings and words.
B. In KFC, you get coke for free and then you buy hamburgers and French fries to go with it.
C. Amy becomes an excellent singer because her teacher told her she was talented in singing.
D. Xiao Ye is from Chongqing, so his friends all believe that he likes eating hot pot.
40. Which of the following sentences can be put in the ▲ in Para. 3?
A. I believed that she would soon love taking notes in this way, too.
B. I believed that it was a perfect example of avoiding the birdcage effect.
C. I thought this was a typical example of the negative birdcage effect.
D. I thought that she would hate reading and taking notes if she did so.
41. The passage mainly tells us ________.
A. the negative impact of Birdcage Effect
B. how to avoid Birdcage Effect in daily life
C. the advantages and disadvantages of Birdcage Effect
D. the history of Birdcage Effect
D
The directors of tourism administration(旅游局)are trying to make their provinces and areas more well-known through social media. They appear in short videos, wearing special costume or even a space suit. Their short films are all set in breathtaking locations and the performances have been well-received.
In one popular short film that attracted tens of thousands of likes, a woman is wearing white headwear and an all-white dress of the Oroqen ethnic group(鄂伦春族)and walking in a snow-covered forest. Du Bo, head of her local bureau(局)of culture and tourism in Heilongjiang Province, filmed herself as such to show Oroqen ethnic customs. Du said she spent two hours shooting and shivering(颤抖)outside as temperatures were -20℃ during the filming, which was finally cut to under a minute. She said she hoped to show the beauty of snow and ice with the short film.
Liu Jiehua, a director in Anyang City, Henan Province, dressed as China’s first recorded woman general in the Shang Dynasty to speak for the historical place and encourage more tourists to visit. Chen Guanyu, director in Artux City, Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, sent out the invitation to his hometown on horseback. With many other directors dressed in special clothing, director Dorje in Daofu County, Sichuan Province had come up with something different. One of his most famous photo shoots is in an astronaut suit.
From riding horses and dressing like astronauts to wearing special ethnic costumes, the normally serious officials are going all out to make local tourism come alive. Most people online welcome this creative competition in the group of these officials, as they help viewers know more about local scenic spots in small counties and faraway places.
42. What effort did some officials make for their work according to the passage?
A. Organizing ethnic activities.
B. Visiting local historical places.

D. Where the popular short film with nice snow and ice was shot.
44. ________ had a different view from the others in the dressing way.
A. Du Bo B. Liu Jiehua C. Dorje D. Chen Guanyu
45. Which is NOT the goal the officials try hard to achieve according to the passage?
A. To show tourists the local beautiful places.
B. To encourage tourists to visit places faraway.
C. To help people better understand local customs.
D. To welcome other directors to the creative competitions.

Books are our best friends in life. We can read novels, magazines, history books and science books in our free time. However, with so many books around us, it is not easy to pick out really good ones. Here is some advice on how to choose a right and great book for yourself.
First, choose books based on your own interest. If you are curious about nature and animals, books about the natural world are suitable for you. If you enjoy moving stories, classic novels will be a wise choice. Reading what you truly like makes the reading time relaxing and enjoyable.
Second, pay attention to the difficulty level. A good book should be neither too hard nor too easy for you. Books that are too difficult may make you feel worried and give up easily, while easy ones cannot help you learn new things or make progress.
Third, choose books with great ideas and excellent language. Such books can bring you new knowledge, improve your vocabulary and teach you how to think in a better way. They have a deep influence on your study and personality.
Fourth, turn to others for help. You can ask your parents, teachers or friends for good book suggestions. You can also read book reviews online to know more about a book before deciding to read it.
A good book can enrich our mind and make our life more wonderful.

1. ________ book named Harry Potter is ________ good friend of mine.
A. A; a B. The; the C. A; the D. The; a
【答案】D
【解析】
【详解】句意:这本名叫《哈利波特》的书是我的好朋友之一。
考查冠词。第一个空是特指《哈利波特》这本书,所以用定冠词the,第二个空强调好朋友中的一个,所以用不定冠词a。故选D。
2. —Have you seen Mr. King these days?
—No, he _________ Shanghai for an international meeting. He’ll come back in three days.
A. has gone to B. has been to
C. has gone in D. has been in
【答案】A
【解析】
【详解】句意:——这些天你看到King先生了吗?——没有,他去了上海参加一个国际会议。三天后回来。
考查现在完成时。has gone to去了(还没有回来);has been to去过(已经回来了);has gone in进入;has been in待在一个地方多长时间。根据对话的意思可知,King先生去了上海还没有回来,故选A。
3. I ________ this book for three weeks. I must return it to the library tomorrow.
A. have borrowed B. borrowed C. have kept D. kept
【答案】C
【解析】
【详解】句意:我借这本书已经三周了。我明天必须把它还给图书馆。
have borrowed已经借了,短暂性动作,现在完成时;borrowed借了,一般过去时;have kept已经保存,延续性动作,现在完成时;kept保留/持有,一般过去时。根据for three weeks可知,句子应用现在完成时,且谓语动词必须是延续性动词。borrow是瞬间动词,不能与时间段连用,keep是延续性动词,符合语境。
4. Simon prefers ________ on the rides in Ocean Park to watching the penguins.
A. go B. going C. to go D. goes
【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】句意:西蒙更喜欢在海洋公园玩游乐设施,而不是看企鹅。
考查非谓语动词。prefer doing sth to doing sth“宁愿做某事也不愿做某事”,固定搭配,此处应用going。故选B。
5. —________ has Mr. Wang been a teacher?
—Since 2002.
A. How often B. How long C. How soon D. How far
【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】句意:——王先生成为老师多久了?——自2002年起。
考查特殊疑问句。How often询问多长时间一次;How long询问时间持续了多久或长度多长;How soon询问多快、多久之后;How far询问距离多远。根据答句“Since 2002”可知,问句询问的是王先生成为老师多久了。故选B。
6. —When did you go to bed last night?
— I didn’t go to bed _________ my father came back
A. after B. if C. until D. because
【答案】C
【解析】
【详解】句意:——你昨晚什么时候睡觉的?——直到我父亲回来我才睡觉。
考查连词辨析。after在……之后;if如果;until直到;because因为。根据“When”和“I didn’t go to bed...my father came back”可知,此处是“not…until…”结构,意为“直到……才……”,表示动作在父亲回来后才发生。故选C。
7. —His family will have a trip to Dalian this summer holiday. But they haven’t decided ________.
—Why not choose the high-speed train? It’ s fast and comfortable.
A. when to leave B. how to get there C. which hotel to live in D. how long to stay there

While tidying my room, I found an old Hanfu, a gift from a friend. It led me to buy matching shoes and earrings. This reminded me of the “birdcage effect (鸟笼效应)”, a psychological phenomenon (心理现象) when getting one thing makes you want to get more things to go with it.
The story behind the birdcage effect is quite fascinating. One day, the psychologist James made a bet (打赌) with his friend Carlson, saying that Carlson would keep a bird soon. Hearing this, Carlson said, “Are you kidding? I have never had this idea.” Later, James gave Carlson a birdcage on his birthday. When friends who visited Carlson’s house saw the cage, they all thought that Carlson had raised birds. Carlson was tired of explaining, and finally, he bought a bird.
As online shopping is popular today, the birdcage effect becomes more common, especially among students. For example, a friend of mine wanted to buy a good pen to match a nice notebook that her sister had given her. She believed it would make her enjoy reading and note-taking. ▲
However, she saw it differently. The beautiful notebook led her to get a good pen, buy a book she liked and start note-taking. She regarded it as a wonderful example of using the birdcage effect positively (正面地) to develop positive habits.
In life, we will meet many forms of the “birdcage effect”. If it leads to unnecessary spending, it’s negative (负面的). We should stop it in time and keep a balance. But if it’s a positive birdcage effect that encourages us to grow and develop, we should see it as a chance to help us achieve our goals. You will find that the “birdcage effect” is not scary at all.
38. What does the underlined phrase “this idea” refer to?
A. Making a bet. B. Telling a joke. C. Buying a birdcage. D. Keeping a bird.
39. According to the passage, what can be seen as “birdcage effect”?
A. Tim wrote some words on the white wall and soon the wall was full of drawings and words.
B. In KFC, you get coke for free and then you buy hamburgers and French fries to go with it.
C. Amy becomes an excellent singer because her teacher told her she was talented in singing.
D. Xiao Ye is from Chongqing, so his friends all believe that he likes eating hot pot.
40. Which of the following sentences can be put in the ▲ in Para. 3?
A. I believed that she would soon love taking notes in this way, too.
B. I believed that it was a perfect example of avoiding the birdcage effect.
C. I thought this was a typical example of the negative birdcage effect.
D. I thought that she would hate reading and taking notes if she did so.

A. the negative impact of Birdcage Effect
B. how to avoid Birdcage Effect in daily life
C. the advantages and disadvantages of Birdcage Effect
D. the history of Birdcage Effect
【答案】38. D 39. B 40. C 41. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了心理学中的“鸟笼效应”现象,通过具体事例说明其正面和负面影响,并建议合理利用这一效应。

词句猜测题。根据“the psychologist James made a bet (打赌) with his friend Carlson, saying that Carlson would keep a bird soon.”和“Are you kidding”可知,Carlson没有想要养鸟的想法。“this idea”指代前文James打赌说Carlson会养鸟的行为。故选D。
【39题详解】
推理判断题。根据“getting one thing makes you want to get more things to go with it”可知,鸟笼效应是得到一件东西会让你想得到更多的东西来搭配它。B选项“在肯德基免费获得可乐后购买汉堡和薯条搭配”符合这一现象。故选B。
【40题详解】
推理判断题。根据“For example, a friend of mine wanted to buy a good pen to match a nice notebook that her sister had given her. She believed it would make her enjoy reading and note-taking.”和“However, she saw it differently… a wonderful example of using the birdcage effect positively”可知,此处作者认为朋友的行为是鸟笼效应的负面表现,与后文朋友的积极态度形成对比。选项C“我认为这是一个典型的鸟笼效应的负面例子。”符合语境。故选C。
【41题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文并根据“If it leads to unnecessary spending, it’s negative… But if it’s a positive birdcage effect”可知,本文主要介绍了心理学中的“鸟笼效应”现象,通过具体事例说明其正面和负面影响,即本文主要告诉我们鸟笼效应的利弊。故选C。

Second, pay attention to the difficulty level. A good book should be neither too hard nor too easy for you. Books that are too difficult may make you feel worried and give up easily, while easy ones cannot help you learn new things or make progress.
Third, choose books with great ideas and excellent language. Such books can bring you new knowledge, improve your vocabulary and teach you how to think in a better way. They have a deep influence on your study and personality.
Fourth, turn to others for help. You can ask your parents, teachers or friends for good book suggestions. You can also read book reviews online to know more about a book before deciding to read it.
A good book can enrich our mind and make our life more wonderful.
