Dallas-based Knit Wits is made up of a group of grandmothers with a strong love for knitting (编织) who turn their love for crafting (精心制作) into a purposeful attempt. Meeting regularly, they pour their collective love into every stitch (针法) they make. The group has been working for over ten years, meeting every Friday, to support organizations that help others, locally and around the world. Over the years, they’ve crafted thousands of items in support of the important things.
Recently the Knit Wits member Mary Ann Stover was encouraged to have the group knit hats for infant (婴儿) patients with heart disease at Children’s Health Hospital. The hats, each a unique work of art, designed with holiday themes, reflect the skill of the Knit Wits. More importantly, the special of Knit Wits is its understanding of the emotional effect these small objects can have on the infants experiencing medical treatments.
Bealle, a certified child life specialist at Children’s Health Hospital, explained how the hats are making a difference to the tiny patients and their families. “Caregivers are able to wear the hats on their body to move their smells before placing the hats back on the infants, encouraging connecting and making the infants less stressful,” he said.
Throughout the infants’ admission, many holidays are celebrated. At times, some infants are seriously ill and unable to dress up for holiday photos the families have planned. Thanks to the donations from Knit Wits, the hospital team is able to provide the family with a suitable themed infant hat the family can use for their photos and holiday celebrations.
4. What do we know about the hats from Paragraph 2?
A. They centre on spiritual comfort. B. They have holiday food subjects.
C. They are knitted by the caregivers. D. They are worn on child parents’ birthdays.
5. Why do the caregivers wear the hats first?
A. To hold an artistic activity. B. To see off the recovered patients.
C. To relax the infants for treatments. D. To welcome the arrival of various holidays.
6. What is the last paragraph mainly about?
A. Why some holiday celebrations are held. B. What the hats can be used as on holidays.
C. Why some special photos are important. D. What the hats can be matched with.
7. Which of the following can best describe the members of Knit Wits?
A. Careful. B. Brave. C. Warm-hearted. D. Energetic.
C
Feeling joy is good for you and not just because you feel happy in the moment. You can keep a joy journal to save it up and use it again.
When you feel joyful you’re in a positive mood, which helps you to deal with challenges and solve problems. Chartered psychologist Suzy Reading, an expert in thoughts and feelings, says experiencing joy is good for your health. “It improves your immune (免疫的) system, protecting you from illness, and it reduces pain, worry and stress, helping you sleep.” The joy you feel doesn’t only benefit you, the people around you gain from it too because joy is contagious. Scientists have found that your joy can influence your family and friends and make them happy.
To record your joy, a joy journal is a special place. You can include whatever you like in it. Taking time to make a note of what’s giving you joy helps you focus on that experience and draw even more happiness from it. Suzy Reading explains, “By recording your joyful moments you can return to them whenever you need a little boost and relive them in the future.”
Choose a notebook and decorate the cover. It is up to you how often you add to it — perhaps every day after school or only at weekends. You can keep all your joyful things together or divide your journal into areas such as family, friends, school and hobbies. How do you best express yourself? You could write, draw, use colorful pens and stick things in.
Write lists of your favorite things: your favorite foods, perhaps, or TV shows or animals, and what you like about them. You can record a moment from each day that gave you joy: who was there, what happened, what you could see, hear and smell. This will help you feel the joy again and remember it more easily. You could make a joy journal with your family too, to record what makes you all happy.
8. What does the underlined word “contagious” mean in Paragraph 2?
A. Nearly lost. B. Easily spread. C. Well protected. D. Badly damaged.
9. What is Suzy Reading’s attitude towards a joy journal?
A. Doubtful. B. Supportive. C. Subjective. D. Concerned.
10. How can you best express your joy according to the text?
A. Write and draw what happened. B. Tell parents your favorite foods.
C. Take photos of the colorful pens. D. Stick things and post them online.
11. Which is probably the best title of the text?
A. The Importance of Getting Happy B. Spread Feelings to Your Family
C. The Ways of Lifting State D. Keep a Joy Journal
D
Imagine being able to see perfectly in the dark. This dream has become a reality thanks to a newly developed technology. This technology consists of a thin film that will be placed on the lenses (镜片) of common glasses. The film is cheap to make, easy to produce, and is lightweight. It is actually 100 times thinner than a hair. Yet, despite its tiny size, its performance is impressive; this special film allows you to see in the dark.
This technology is able to transform infrared light (红外光) normally invisible to the human eye, and turn this into images people can see. Compared to animals, humans have very impoverished night vision. Over the years, night vision devices (设备) have been developed to help the medical, industrial, and scientific worlds. Scientists are able to study night-time animals by using infrared cameras, while companies use infrared imaging for food quality control.
Traditional infrared devices work by discovering the heat of an object. They use a cooler in low temperature and can be easily influenced by the heat noise. Such shortcoming led the team into exploring an improved device.
Their new device is able to function at room temperature. The new technology is unlike the traditional devices. Once this new night vision is used to all, it could save lives. Drivers will be able to see better at night, especially when driving on unlighted roads. Police can use them when searching at night, and hikers who lose their way can feel more confident walking in the dark.
The inventors are excited to make the practical uses. “While this is the first experiment, we are actively working to further advance the technology. Of course, the many uses are exciting and seeing in the dark opens up a new world for all,” said Mohsen Rahmani, lead developer of the technology.
12. What do we know about the film according to the first paragraph?
A. It costs a lot to make. B. It is difficult to produce.
C. It helps us see in the dark. D. It looks like regular glasses.
13. What is one advantage of the new night vision technology over traditional infrared devices?
A. It can only work in extremely low temperatures.
B. It is not easily affected by heat noise.
C. It requires a cooler to function properly.
D. It can only detect the heat of objects.
14. What does Paragraph 4 focus on about the new technology?
A. Its practical applications. B. Its future improvements.
C. Its likely buyers. D. Its working conditions.
15. What can be inferred about the technology in Mohsen’s words?
A. It is not exciting enough to scientists. B. It needs to be further developed.
C. It has become a hit in the experiment. D. It has been available to common people.

In 1952, my father traveled with the United Nations Peacekeeping Organization. He worked on a very large military vessel, and he went where the vessel went . This meant he spent a lot of time away from our home in North Carolina.
As Christmas approached, he called from somewhere remote. He explained to my mother why he would not be celebrating the holiday with us. He was a long way from home and had no way of getting back to his family.
Disappointed as she was, mum understood dad’s situation. She also knew we would be upset, so she told my two sisters, brother and me right away. The news hit me very hard. Christmas just wouldn’t be the same without dad. We were all very sad.
I knew he would have tried his best to be with us. Still, I went to bed on Christmas Eve with a heavy heart. When we woke up on Christmas morning, we opened the presents mum had put under the Christmas tree in the living room. I don’t remember what gift my brother received that year, but my sisters and I found new Barbie dolls. My sisters’ dolls had fancy clothes and shoes, and mum had placed mine in a pumpkin carriage. We were all happy with our gifts, so we went outside to play. I didn’t want mum to see how gloomy I was because I couldn’t show dad our gifts and say Merry Christmas to him. I could tell mum was feeling sad, too.
We went to play outside and as I was playing, I looked up and saw Santa approaching. I ran inside to tell Mother. She did not believe me and told me not to make up stories. I went back outside to welcome Santa. My brother, sisters and I were all very excited to see a real Santa coming to our home.

Feeling joy is good for you and not just because you feel happy in the moment. You can keep a joy journal to save it up and use it again.
When you feel joyful you’re in a positive mood, which helps you to deal with challenges and solve problems. Chartered psychologist Suzy Reading, an expert in thoughts and feelings, says experiencing joy is good for your health. “It improves your immune (免疫的) system, protecting you from illness, and it reduces pain, worry and stress, helping you sleep.” The joy you feel doesn’t only benefit you, the people around you gain from it too because joy is contagious. Scientists have found that your joy can influence your family and friends and make them happy.
To record your joy, a joy journal is a special place. You can include whatever you like in it. Taking time to make a note of what’s giving you joy helps you focus on that experience and draw even more happiness from it. Suzy Reading explains, “By recording your joyful moments you can return to them whenever you need a little boost and relive them in the future.”
Choose a notebook and decorate the cover. It is up to you how often you add to it — perhaps every day after school or only at weekends. You can keep all your joyful things together or divide your journal into areas such as family, friends, school and hobbies. How do you best express yourself? You could write, draw, use colorful pens and stick things in.
Write lists of your favorite things: your favorite foods, perhaps, or TV shows or animals, and what you like about them. You can record a moment from each day that gave you joy: who was there, what happened, what you could see, hear and smell. This will help you feel the joy again and remember it more easily. You could make a joy journal with your family too, to record what makes you all happy.
8. What does the underlined word “contagious” mean in Paragraph 2?
A. Nearly lost. B. Easily spread. C. Well protected. D. Badly damaged.
9. What is Suzy Reading’s attitude towards a joy journal?
A. Doubtful. B. Supportive. C. Subjective. D. Concerned.
10. How can you best express your joy according to the text?
A. Write and draw what happened. B. Tell parents your favorite foods.
C. Take photos of the colorful pens. D. Stick things and post them online.
11. Which is probably the best title of the text?
A. The Importance of Getting Happy B. Spread Feelings to Your Family
C. The Ways of Lifting State D. Keep a Joy Journal
【答案】8. B 9. B 10. A 11. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了记录快乐时刻对身心健康和人际关系的积极影响,并详细指导如何制作个性化的快乐日记。
【8题详解】
词句猜测题。根据画线词的上文“The joy you feel doesn’t only benefit you, the people around you gain from it (你感受到的快乐不仅对自己有益,周围的人也会受益)”和下文“Scientists have found that your joy can influence your family and friends and make them happy. (科学家发现,你的快乐能影响家人朋友,让他们也感到快乐)”可知,快乐能传递给他人,让他人受益,因此快乐是具有传染性的,画线词意思是“富有感染力的,会传播的”。故选B项。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段中Suzy Reading所说的话“By recording your joyful moments you can return to them whenever you need a little boost and relive them in the future. (通过记录那些让你快乐的瞬间,你便能在需要情绪提振时重温这些美好,在未来再次体验当时的幸福)”可知,Suzy Reading肯定快乐日记对情绪的积极作用,其态度是支持的。故选B项。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段中“How do you best express yourself? You could write, draw, use colorful pens and stick things in. (怎样才是表达自己的最佳方式?你可以自由书写,随手涂鸦,用彩色笔绘制,或是把值得珍藏的小物件粘贴在里面)”可知,用文字和图画记录事件是表达快乐的最佳方式。故选A项。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文,尤其是第一段“Feeling joy is good for you and not just because you feel happy in the moment. You can keep a joy journal to save it up and use it again. (感受快乐对你有益,这不仅仅是因为你能获得当下的幸福感。你可以通过制作快乐日记来储存这些快乐,并在需要时重温它们)”可知,全文核心词是joy journal,文章首先提出快乐日记的概念,接着详细说明记录快乐时刻对身心健康和人际关系的积极影响,并指导如何制作个性化的快乐日记。因此,D项“制作快乐日记”最契合文章主旨,适合作为文章标题。故选D项。

Imagine being able to see perfectly in the dark. This dream has become a reality thanks to a newly developed technology. This technology consists of a thin film that will be placed on the lenses (镜片) of common glasses. The film is cheap to make, easy to produce, and is lightweight. It is actually 100 times thinner than a hair. Yet, despite its tiny size, its performance is impressive; this special film allows you to see in the dark.
This technology is able to transform infrared light (红外光) normally invisible to the human eye, and turn this into images people can see. Compared to animals, humans have very impoverished night vision. Over the years, night vision devices (设备) have been developed to help the medical, industrial, and scientific worlds. Scientists are able to study night-time animals by using infrared cameras, while companies use infrared imaging for food quality control.
Traditional infrared devices work by discovering the heat of an object. They use a cooler in low temperature and can be easily influenced by the heat noise. Such shortcoming led the team into exploring an improved device.
Their new device is able to function at room temperature. The new technology is unlike the traditional devices. Once this new night vision is used to all, it could save lives. Drivers will be able to see better at night, especially when driving on unlighted roads. Police can use them when searching at night, and hikers who lose their way can feel more confident walking in the dark.
The inventors are excited to make the practical uses. “While this is the first experiment, we are actively working to further advance the technology. Of course, the many uses are exciting and seeing in the dark opens up a new world for all,” said Mohsen Rahmani, lead developer of the technology.
12. What do we know about the film according to the first paragraph?
A. It costs a lot to make. B. It is difficult to produce.
C. It helps us see in the dark. D. It looks like regular glasses.
13. What is one advantage of the new night vision technology over traditional infrared devices?
A. It can only work in extremely low temperatures.
B. It is not easily affected by heat noise.
C. It requires a cooler to function properly.
D. It can only detect the heat of objects.
14. What does Paragraph 4 focus on about the new technology?
A. Its practical applications. B. Its future improvements.
C. Its likely buyers. D. Its working conditions.
15. What can be inferred about the technology in Mohsen’s words?
A. It is not exciting enough to scientists. B. It needs to be further developed.
C. It has become a hit in the experiment. D. It has been available to common people.
【答案】12. C 13. B 14. A 15. B
【解析】
【导语】本文介绍了一款可贴在普通眼镜上的新型超薄薄膜夜视技术,它能把红外光转为可视影像,优于传统设备且用途广泛,目前还在持续优化升级。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中“Yet, despite its tiny size, its performance is impressive; this special film allows you to see in the dark.(然而,尽管它的体积很小,它的性能却令人印象深刻;这种特殊的薄膜使你在黑暗中也能看见东西。)”可知,这种薄膜能够帮助人们在黑暗中看到东西。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中“Traditional infrared devices work by discovering the heat of an object. They use a cooler in low temperature and can be easily influenced by the heat noise.(传统的红外设备通过发现物体的热量来工作。它们在低温下使用冷却器,很容易受到热噪声的影响。)”和第四段中“Their new device is able to function at room temperature. The new technology is unlike the traditional devices.(他们的新设备能够在室温下运行。这项新技术不同于传统设备。)”可知,传统设备的缺点是依赖低温冷却器、易受热噪声影响,而新设备的优势是室温即可工作,无传统设备的缺点。由此可知,新设备不易受到热噪声影响。
【14题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第四段中“Drivers will be able to see better at night, especially when driving on unlighted roads. Police can use them when searching at night, and hikers who lose their way can feel more confident walking in the dark.(驾驶员在夜间能看得更清楚,尤其是在没有照明的道路上行驶时。警察可以在夜间搜索时使用它们,迷路的徒步旅行者可以在黑暗中行走时更有信心。)”可知,本段主要讲了新技术的一些实际应用。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“While this is the first experiment, we are actively working to further advance the technology.(虽然这是第一次实验,但我们正在积极努力进一步推进这项技术。)”可知,从Mohsen的话中可以推断出这项技术需要进一步研发。

We’re not so different after all.

根据上文中的“Although learning a new language has become simpler through apps or programs, nothing compares to learning a language in the place where it is spoken.(虽然通过应用程序或程序学习一门新语言变得更简单,但没有什么比在使用该语言的地方学习一门语言更好的了)”说明学习语言的最佳方式是到讲这种语言的国家学习;G项:The only true way is putting yourself in the culture of the language.(唯一正确的方法是将自己置身于语言的文化中。) 承接上文,对上文进行总结。故选G。
【17题详解】
根据上句“You can read books and even eat food from other countries. But those experience will never compare to the knowledge gained by being in another country. (你可以读书,甚至吃来自其他国家的食物。但这些经验永远无法与在另一个国家获得的知识相比)”可知,作者鼓励人们到新的国家获取知识。E项:People from different backgrounds can offer something new.(来自不同背景的人可以提供一些新的东西)。承接上句,说明到新的国家可以学习一些新的东西。故选E。
【18题详解】
本段的小标题是“Unique (独特的) traditions”根据下文“A tradition in Mexico is Day of the Dead.(墨西哥的传统是亡灵节)”列举了墨西哥亡灵节,这说明每种文化都有独特的风格。D项:Each culture has its own traditions that make it unique(每种文化都有自己独特的传统)。故选D。

(很难想象,如果我们没有每天都认为理所当然的东西,比如可靠的交通工具、干净的水、教育和居住的家,生活会是什么样子。)”可知,主要讲述了很难想象生活中没有了我们认为充理所应当有的东西时会是什么样子。因此我们应该珍惜我们所拥有的。A项:Value what you have.(珍惜你所拥有的)合乎题意。故选A。
【20题详解】
上一句中的“But no matter how much our lifestyles may differ, we are all working toward similar goals in life. (但无论我们的生活方式有多大不同,我们都在朝着相似的目标努力)”说明人们努力追寻生活中相似的目标。C项:Those goals include trying to get the most out of life.(这些目标包括努力从生活中获得最大的收获)中的Those goals正是指“similar goals”。故选C。

Undoubtedly, money plays a vital role in our daily life. We need it to afford our food, clothing and education. Yet money can never buy happiness, health or valuable friendship.

47. 阅读下面材料, 根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段, 使之构成一篇完整的短文。
In 1952, my father traveled with the United Nations Peacekeeping Organization. He worked on a very large military vessel, and he went where the vessel went . This meant he spent a lot of time away from our home in North Carolina.
As Christmas approached, he called from somewhere remote. He explained to my mother why he would not be celebrating the holiday with us. He was a long way from home and had no way of getting back to his family.
Disappointed as she was, mum understood dad’s situation. She also knew we would be upset, so she told my two sisters, brother and me right away. The news hit me very hard. Christmas just wouldn’t be the same without dad. We were all very sad.
I knew he would have tried his best to be with us. Still, I went to bed on Christmas Eve with a heavy heart. When we woke up on Christmas morning, we opened the presents mum had put under the Christmas tree in the living room. I don’t remember what gift my brother received that year, but my sisters and I found new Barbie dolls. My sisters’ dolls had fancy clothes and shoes, and mum had placed mine in a pumpkin carriage. We were all happy with our gifts, so we went outside to play. I didn’t want mum to see how gloomy I was because I couldn’t show dad our gifts and say Merry Christmas to him. I could tell mum was feeling sad, too.
We went to play outside and as I was playing, I looked up and saw Santa approaching. I ran inside to tell Mother. She did not believe me and told me not to make up stories. I went back outside to welcome Santa. My brother, sisters and I were all very excited to see a real Santa coming to our home.

【答案】参考范文
We were eager to know what gifts Santa would give us. Slowly, Santa dropped his bag full of gifts on the ground and greeted us with arms open wide, like dad often did. The moment we received our delicately packaged presents, we tore off the wrapping paper. So excited was I that I bounced around Santa like a rabbit and kept saying thanks, without wondering how Santa knew that I expected a box of crayons as my gift —something I had mentioned to my father months ago.
We had no idea that a bigger surprise was waiting for us. Santa took off his costume and beamed at us with a naughty look. We burst into tears when we realized it was our dad dressed as Santa. We all walked inside and dad kissed mum, who was also surprised at his sudden return. Dad told us about his strenuous journey home. His special surprise was one of the best gifts I have ever received for Christmas.
