The company aims to gather real-world feedback before the official product launch later this year. (TechForward正在寻找本地居民来测试其新的智能家庭助手，这是一款语音控制设备，旨在帮助用户管理日常任务，如设置提醒、控制灯光、查看天气和播放音乐。该公司旨在在今年晚些时候正式推出产品之前收集真实世界的反馈)”可知，本文的目的是为产品试用寻找志愿者。故选C。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。根据Program Timeline部分“June 1-28 Device testing period (6月1日至28日 设备测试期)”可知，参与者预计要测试设备28天。故选C。 【3题详解】 细节理解题。根据Application Requirements部分“The call is open to residents living within the city area.

My hometown had only one small bookstore and no art galleries, so the endless concerts, museums and restaurants in Chicago seemed like a dream come true. As a college freshman, I was excited to embrace the city’s energy — yet I often found myself longing for the sound of waves crashing and the smell of salt in the air. Years went by, and I built a fulfilling life in Chicago: I graduated, got a job I loved, and made lifelong friends. Still, a soft nostalgia (乡愁) for Maine lingered, and I soon realized that “home” isn’t defined by the number of attractions a place has, but by the sense of comfort and belonging it brings. It’s the way the light falls on the ocean at sunset, the taste of my mom’s seafood chowder, and the familiarity of bumping into neighbors on the street. “Homesickness often arises when we’re missing the emotional comfort of a familiar environment, not just the place itself,” says Dr. Lisa Carter, a psychologist who specializes in human attachment. “We don’t just miss a location — we miss the routines, the relationships, and the sense of safety that location provided. For some, this comfort can be recreated in a new place; for others, it remains a unique part of their past.” Although the nostalgia for Maine has never truly faded, even after years of happy life in Chicago, there are simple ways to ease this kind of longing. Creating small, familiar rituals in your new life — like baking your hometown’s favorite cookies every Sunday or taking a walk in a nearby park at the same time each evening — can help build a new sense of stability. These little acts don’t erase the memories of home; instead, they weave those memories into the fabric of your present life. I’m fortunate to have a good foundation in Chicago, with a loving family, supportive friends and a comfortable home, but however much I love my life in Chicago, there’s a part of me that will forever belong to Maine. 4. Why did the author move to Chicago? A. To pursue her college education there. B. To take up a new job in the city center. C. To enjoy the various attractions it offered. D. To escape the boredom of her small hometown. 5. What does Dr. Lisa Carter think nostalgia mainly comes from? A. The loss of important relationships from the past. B. The difficulty in creating new routines in daily life. C. The disappointment with the new place’s environment. D. The lack of familiar emotional comfort in a new place. 6. What does Paragraph 4 mainly talk about? A. The methods of relieving nostalgic feelings. B. The significance of holding on to past memories. C. The permanence of the author’s nostalgia for Maine. D. The necessity of physical places for establishing a safe zone. 7. Which saying best summarizes the main idea of the text? A. Pleasure blinds one to home. B. Home keeps the wolf from the door. C. Home is where the heart is. D. When in Rome, do as the Romans do. 【答案】4. A 5. D 6. A 7. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。文章主要讲述了作者离开家乡缅因州前往芝加哥上大学，尽管在芝加哥建立了充实的生活，但对家乡的思念之情从未消散，同时探讨了缓解乡愁的方法。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“In August 2005, I left my quiet coastal hometown in Maine for Chicago, a big city famous for its skyscrapers and lively cultural scene. My hometown had only one small bookstore and no art galleries, so the endless concerts, museums and restaurants in Chicago seemed like a dream come true. As a college freshman, I was excited to embrace the city’s energy — yet I often found myself longing for the sound of waves crashing and the smell of salt in the air. (2005年8月，我离开了缅因州宁静的沿海家乡前往芝加哥，这座以摩天大楼和充满活力的文化场景而闻名的大城市。我的家乡只有一家小书店，没有美术馆，所以芝加哥无穷无尽的音乐会、博物馆和餐馆似乎是梦想成真。作为一名大一新生，我为拥抱这座城市的活力而感到兴奋——然而我常常发现自己渴望听到海浪拍打的声音和空气中咸咸的气味)”可知，作者搬到芝加哥是为了去那里上大学。故选A项。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段““Homesickness often arises when we’re missing the emotional comfort of a familiar environment, not just the place itself,” says Dr. Lisa Carter, a psychologist who specializes in human attachment. “We don’t just miss a location — we miss the routines, the relationships, and the sense of safety that location provided. For some, this comfort can be recreated in a new place; for others, it remains a unique part of their past.” (丽莎·卡特博士说，“当我们想念熟悉环境带来的情感慰藉，而不仅仅是那个地方本身时，思乡之情就会产生。”她是一位专门研究人类依恋的心理学家。“我们想念的不只是一个地方——我们想念的是那里的日常、关系以及那个地方提供的安全感。对有些人来说，这种舒适感可以在一个新的地方重新创造；对另一些人来说，它仍然是他们过去独特的一部分。”)”可推断，丽莎·卡特博士认为思乡之情主要源于在新地方缺乏熟悉的情感慰藉。故选D项。 【6题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第四段中“Although the nostalgia for Maine has never truly faded, even after years of happy life in Chicago, there are simple ways to ease this kind of longing. Creating small, familiar rituals in your new life — like baking your hometown’s favorite cookies every Sunday or taking a walk in a nearby park at the same time each evening — can help build a new sense of stability. (尽管对缅因州的怀念从未真正消失，即使在芝加哥度过了多年的幸福生活后也是如此，但仍有一些简单的方法可以缓解这种思念。在你的新生活中创造一些小而熟悉的仪式——比如每个周日烘焙家乡最爱的饼干，或者每天晚上同一时间在附近的公园散步——有助于建立新的稳定感)”可知，本段主要讲述了缓解思乡之情的方法。故选A项。 【7题详解】 主旨大意题。根据全文内容，特别是第二段“I soon realized that “home” isn’t defined by the number of attractions a place has, but by the sense of comfort and belonging it brings. It’s the way the light falls on the ocean at sunset, the taste of my mom’s seafood chowder, and the familiarity of bumping into neighbors on the street. (我很快意识到，“家”不是由一个地方有多少景点来定义的，而是由它带来的舒适感和归属感来定义的。它是日落时光线洒在海面上的样子，是我妈妈海鲜杂烩的味道，是在街上偶遇邻居的熟悉感)”和最后一段“I’m fortunate to have a good foundation in Chicago, with a loving family, supportive friends and a comfortable home, but however much I love my life in Chicago, there’s a part of me that will forever belong to Maine. (我很幸运在芝加哥有了良好的基础，有亲爱的家人、支持我的朋友和舒适的家，但无论我多么热爱在芝加哥的生活，我的一部分将永远属于缅因州)”可知，文章的核心思想是，“家”不在于地理位置，而在于情感归属与心灵的安放之处。故C项“Home is where the heart is (心之所在即为家)”最能概括文章主旨。故选C项。 Parrots are known for being cheerful and colorful birds with a chatty side. To spotlight these beautiful birds, Nayan Shrimal and Venus Bird from The Paper Ark have launched The Parrot Project, in which they create lifelike paper portraits (肖像) in their likeness for a good cause. “This series is a respect to these amazing birds and their contribution to our ecosystem,” the artists said. To them, parrots are not only beautiful birds that have inspired them creatively but also a species that has long been subjected to exploitation. “Many parrot species are threatened and some are near to extinction,” Shrimal and Bird explained. “They are suffering a lot due to deforestation and pet trade and we wanted to shine light on the importance of these species in our ecosystem through our art.” To create these realistic pieces, they begin by picking a species from their collection of bird books. Once they settle on a parrot, they carry out some online research to get all the information needed for a faithful description. “Each species is created keeping in mind their habitat so each artwork in this series shows the bird perching (栖息) on the tree or plant which is either their favorite plant or their perching tree,” the artists share. Each bird is made up of tiny paper bits, put together following a drawing previously made by the team. They also carefully paint each piece to truly capture the details that make the species so unique, such as the yellow spots on the head of the red-tailed black cockatoo or the ombre (渐变色) feathers of the Scarlet Macaw. The detailed portraits are now available for sale on The Paper Ark’s website, with the artists donating 10% from each sale towards parrot conservation. “Our primary purpose with this series is to motivate people to learn about these beautiful birds and their importance in our ecosystem and the threats they are facing,” Shrimal and Bird explain. “We want our audience to come together and take steps to conserve this species.” 8. What motivated Nayan Shrimal and Venus Bird to initiate The Parrot Project? A. The overpopulation of certain parrot species. B. The threats of human activities to the parrots. C. Their personal fascination with parrots as pets. D. The requirement of an environmental organization. 9. How do the artists ensure their paper parrots true to life? A. By using high-tech to create the models. B. By using real feathers in their artworks. C. By using photographs as a direct reference. D. By researching all details about the species. 10. Why are there specific trees or plants in the parrot portraits? A. To add artistic value to the portraits. B. To identify the parrot species easily. C. To show the bird in its natural habitat. D. To make the artworks more complicated. 11. What can The Parrot Project help do according to the text? A. To ban the pet trade of parrots. B. To connect people with animals. C. To research different species of parrots. D. To raise awareness of parrots’ conservation. 【答案】8. B 9. D 10. C 11. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了艺术家通过纸鹦鹉项目提高人们对鹦鹉保护的意识。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。由文章第二段中““Many parrot species are threatened and some are near to extinction,” Shrimal and Bird explained. “They are suffering a lot due to deforestation and pet trade and we wanted to shine light on the importance of these species in our ecosystem through our art.” (“许多鹦鹉物种受到威胁，有些已濒临灭绝，”Shrimal和Bird解释道。“由于森林砍伐和宠物贸易，它们正遭受着巨大的痛苦，我们希望通过我们的艺术来阐明这些物种在我们生态系统中的重要性。”)”可知，人类活动对鹦鹉造成了威胁，这促使Nayan Shrimal和Venus Bird发起了鹦鹉项目。故选B。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。由文章第三段中“To create these realistic pieces, they begin by picking a species from their collection of bird books. Once they settle on a parrot, they carry out some online research to get all the information needed for a faithful description. (为了创作这些逼真的作品，他们首先从他们的鸟类书籍收藏中选择一个物种。一旦他们选定了一只鹦鹉，他们就会进行一些在线研究，以获得忠实描述所需的所有信息。)”可知，艺术家们通过研究该物种的所有细节来确保他们的纸鹦鹉栩栩如生。故选D。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。由文章第三段中““Each species is created keeping in mind their habitat so each artwork in this series shows the bird perching (栖息) on the tree or plant which is either their favorite plant or their perching tree,” the artists share. (艺术家们分享道：“创作每个物种时都会考虑到它们的栖息地，所以这个系列中的每一件艺术品都展现了鸟儿栖息在它们最喜爱的植物或栖息树上的情景。”)”可知，鹦鹉肖像中有特定的树木或植物是为了展示在自然栖息地中的鸟类。故选C。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。由文章最后一段中““Our primary purpose with this series is to motivate people to learn about these beautiful birds and their importance in our ecosystem and the threats they are facing,” Shrimal and Bird explain. (Shrimal和Bird解释道：“我们创作这个系列的主要目的是激励人们去了解这些美丽的鸟类，以及它们在我们生态系统中的重要性和它们所面临的威胁。”)”可知，鹦鹉计划可以帮助提高人们对鹦鹉保护的意识。故选D。 Many organizations learned in the past year that remote work can be highly effective, with 83% of employers surveyed saying that the shift to remote work has been successful for their company, according to a PwC study. In addition, 54% of workers want to continue working remotely after the pandemic. Now that it's clear where the work is done is not as important as people once thought, the other dimension of flexibility workers fever is the freedom to determine when the work is done. A 2019 study by the International Workplace Group found that 80% of workers would turn down a job that did not offer a flexible work schedule, and 76% of workers said they'd consider staying at their current employer if they could work flexible hours. According to a Microsoft Work Trend Report, the 9-to-5 workday is disappearing, as the increase in remote work has allowed for more flexible hours. Employees are increasingly working asynchronously, completing tasks on their own schedules, which may be different from those of their colleagues. Asynchronous work is now essential to being part of a modern, digital economy, staying competitive in the war for talent, and building a globally distributed workforce. Tsedal Neeley, a Harvard Business School professor, told me, “Companies have to rethink what it means to be part of a modern work structure. This idea of 9-to-5 or face-time culture is actually not helpful for a digitally advanced economy.” She highlighted that the face-time culture is the need to monitor or see people in order to feel like work is advancing. However, this assumption that being productive requires seeing people do the work is not only limiting, but also unreasonable, as technology and automation are increasingly used to get work done and are not as observable as before. Asynchronous work, she says, is “a completely new mindset in line with a digital economy.” 12. What do the statistics in Para. 1 suggest? A. The effects of remote work. B. The importance of flexible work. C. The popularity of working alone. D. The preference for flexible working style. 13. What does the underlined word “asynchronously” in Para. 2 mean? A. Not at the same time. B. Without much creativity. C. For different purposes. D. Under unfavorable circumstances. 14. What attitude did Tsedal Neeley have towards 9-to-5 culture? A. Critical. B. Neutral. C. Indifferent. D. Supportive. 15. Which can be a suitable title for the text? A. Adjusting to “9-to-5” culture B. The change of digital economy C. The assumption of digital economy D. Breaking free from “9-to-5” culture 【答案】12. D 13. A 14. A 15. D 【解析】 【分析】本文是说明文。文章介绍了疫情后人们工作方式的变化，引发了人们对于更先进工作方式的追求，这种工作方式对员工和企业都有良性的作用。 【12题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“Many organizations learned in the past year that remote work can be highly effective, with 83% of employers surveyed saying that the shift to remote work has been successful for their company, according to a PwC study. In addition, 54% of workers want to continue working remotely after the pandemic. Now that it's clear where the work is done is not as important as people once thought, the other dimension of flexibility workers fever is the freedom to determine when the work is done. A 2019 study by the International Workplace Group found that 80% of workers would turn down a job that did not offer a flexible work schedule, and 76% of workers said they'd consider staying at their current employer if they could work flexible hours.(普华永道的一项研究显示，在过去一年里，许多组织都认识到远程工作可以非常有效，83%的受访雇主表示，他们的公司成功地实现了远程工作的转变。此外，54%的工人希望在大流行后继续远程工作。现在很明显，工作在哪里完成并不像人们曾经认为的那么重要，弹性工作者热的另一个方面是决定工作何时完成的自由。国际工作场所集团2019年的一项研究发现，80%的员工会拒绝没有弹性工作时间的工作，76%的员工表示，如果可以弹性工作时间，他们会考虑留在目前的雇主)”可推知，第1段的数据说明了偏好灵活的工作方式。故选D。 【13题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第二段中“According to a Microsoft Work Trend Report, the 9-to-5 workday is disappearing, as the increase in remote work has allowed for more flexible hours.”以及划线词后文“completing tasks on their own schedules, which may be different from those of their colleagues”可知，根据微软的一份工作趋势报告，“朝九晚五”的工作时间正在消失，因为远程工作的增加使得工作时间更加灵活，员工越来越多地asynchronously工作，按照自己的时间表完成任务，这可能与他们的同事不同，即人们追求弹性工作时间，这可能和其他同事不一致，与他们不同时完成工作。划线词词意为“不同时地”，故选A。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中“Companies have to rethink what it means to be part of a modern work structure. This idea of 9-to-5 or face-time culture is actually not helpful for a digitally advanced economy. (公司必须深刻地重新思考，成为现代工作结构的一部分意味着什么。“朝九晚五”或者面对面文化的想法实际上对数字时代的发达经济没有帮助)”可推知，Tsedal Neeley认为“朝九晚五”的工作模式对现在的经济没有帮助，即他不赞成“朝九晚五”工作模式。故选A。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第二段中“According to a Microsoft Work Trend Report, the 9-to-5 workday is disappearing, as the increase in remote work has allowed for more flexible hours. (根据微软的一份工作趋势报告，“朝九晚五”的工作时间正在消失，因为远程工作的增加使得工作时间更加灵活)”以及本文主要介绍后疫情数字经济时代人们期待打破“朝九晚五”的传统工作模式。D项“摆脱“朝九晚五”的文化”为最佳标题。故选D。 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出填入空白处的最佳选项。选项有两项为多余选项。 Green exercise is a term used to describe any type of physical exercise that takes place in a natural environment rather than in a health club or gym. ____16____. Instead, it relies on the use of natural means of taking part in activities that improve strength and endurance with as little reliance on equipment as possible. ____17____. For example, some consider a truly natural exercise experience requires that the individual wear clothing only made from natural fibers. Others consider barefoot running or walking with a big arena to be more desirable than running or walking with shoes. A slightly different approach to green exercise puts more stress on the fresh air, sunshine and involvement with the natural world, rather than the equipment or clothing used during the exercise. ____18____. Similarly, climbing a mountain using standard equipment and protective clothing would also be considered a green exercise. Many consider green exercise helps to reconnect human beings with the natural world. The interaction with nature helps to lower people's blood pressure, refresh their mind, and actually improve their self-esteem. ____19____. Not everyone believes that the green exercise is more beneficial than working out in a health club or gym. ____20____. Meanwhile, the use of fitness devices may result in more challenging workouts which help strengthen the heart and lungs in ways that more simplistic exercise in a natural setting would be difficult to manage. A. A green gym uses as little equipment as possible B. Spirits are also believed to be positively affected C. Opinions on what truly green exercise means differ D. Green exercise includes a range of activities exposed to nature E. So riding a bicycle in the forest can be called a type of green exercise F. It usually doesn't use fitness equipment that is normally found in a gym G. Some point out that many health clubs are built to make full use of natural light 【答案】16. F 17. C 18. E 19. B 20. G 【解析】 【导语】本文是说明文。文章主要介绍了一种新的运动方式——绿色运动，不同于在使用健身房的健身设施，更强调与大自然的接触，表明其利弊。 【16题详解】 根据上文“Green exercise is a term used to describe any type of physical exercise that takes place in a natural environment rather than in a health club or gym.（绿色运动是一个术语，用于描述在自然环境中进行的任何类型的体育锻炼，而不是在健身俱乐部或健身房中。）”开头介绍绿色运动不同于在健身房的锻炼，空格处承上启下，以及后文的“Instead,”表明空格处的意义与后文相反。因此，空格处应继续说明绿色运动与健身房运动的不同之处，F项“It usually doesn't use fitness equipment that is normally found in a gym (它通常不使用健身房里常见的健身器材)”符合文意，提到了“gym”，与上下文一致。故选F。 【17题详解】 根据后文“For example, some consider a truly natural exercise experience requires that the individual wear clothing only made from natural fibers. Others consider barefoot running or walking with a big arena to be more desirable than running or walking with shoes.（例如，一些人认为，真正自然的运动体验要求人只穿天然纤维制成的衣服。其他人则认为赤脚跑步或在大型竞技场上行走，比穿着鞋子跑步或行走更可取。）”从两个方面举例说明了两种不同的绿色运动方式。因此空格处总结性说明不同的人，对于什么是真正的绿色运动观点不同。C项“Opinions on what truly green exercise means differ (人们对什么是真正的绿色运动意见不一)”符合文意。故选C。 【18题详解】 根据后文“Similarly, climbing a mountain using standard equipment and protective clothing would also be considered a green exercise.（同样，使用标准设备和防护服爬山也将被视为绿色运动。）”表明什么样的锻炼会被视为绿色运动，由“Similarly,”可知，空格处也是在介绍绿色运动的类型，而E项中“can be called a type of green exercise”与后文中的“also be considered a green exercise”结构一致，都是在介绍绿色运动的类型，E项“So riding a bicycle in the forest can be called a type of green exercise (因此，在森林里骑自行车可以被称为一种绿色运动)”符合文意。故选E。 【19题详解】 根据前文“The interaction with nature helps to lower peoples’ blood pressure, refresh their mind, and actually improve their self-esteem.（与大自然的互动有助于降低人们的血压，更新他们的思维，并真正地提高他们的自尊。）”介绍了绿色运动对于身体、头脑和心理健康的优点，而B项“Spirits are also believed to be positively affected (人们认为，精神也会受到积极影响)”承接上文，接着说明了绿色运动在精神上的积极影响。故选B。 【20题详解】 根据上文“Not everyone believes that the green exercise is more beneficial than working out in a health club or gym.（并非所有人都认为绿色运动比在健身俱乐部或健身房锻炼更有益。）”可知，该段在介绍另一种观点，指出使用健身器材锻炼也有好处，以及“Meanwhile, …”后文说明使用健身器材有利于增强心肺功能。因此，空格处也是在讲述健身俱乐部或者健身房的优点，G项“Some point out that many health clubs are built to make full use of natural light (一些人指出，许多健身俱乐部都是为了充分利用自然光而建的)”符合文意，其中的“many health clubs”与上文的“in a health club or gym”上下一致。故选G。 第三部分 语言运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 The vacant (空着的) land on Elm Street had been an eyesore (眼中钉) for years-a patch of weeds and forgotten furniture. For Mrs. Agatha, who had lived in her house opposite the land for forty years, it was a daily ____21____ of how the neighborhood had changed, becoming a place where neighbors were ____22____ One spring day, a leaflet ____23____ in her mailbox. “Let’s Grow Together! A community garden meeting this Saturday. All are ____24____.” Another silly idea, Mrs. Agatha ____25____. But with little else to do, she decided to go. To her surprise, the meeting was ____26____. There were young families, students, and a few other long-time residents. A young woman named Maria, who had just ____27____, addressed the meeting. “We can turn that ____28____ into something beautiful,” she ____29____, a place for everyone.” The next weekend, dozens of neighbors showed up with gloves and ____30____. As they worked together, pulling weeds and hauling away trash, something remarkable happened. People started ____31____, recommending their favorite plants, and laughed together.

(所给词的适当形式填空) 【答案】have been solved 【解析】 【详解】句意：随着科技的发展，大量过去难以处理的问题最近已经被科学家们解决了。recently表明要用现在完成时，problems与solve是被动关系，即问题被解决，所以要用现在完成时的被动语态“have/has been +过去分词”。“a large quantity of +名词”作主语时，谓语动词的形式取决于其后名词的形式，此处名词是复数，所以用助动词have，solve的过去分词是solved。 65.

In August 2005, I left my quiet coastal hometown in Maine for Chicago, a big city famous for its skyscrapers and lively cultural scene. My hometown had only one small bookstore and no art galleries, so the endless concerts, museums and restaurants in Chicago seemed like a dream come true. As a college freshman, I was excited to embrace the city’s energy — yet I often found myself longing for the sound of waves crashing and the smell of salt in the air. Years went by, and I built a fulfilling life in Chicago: I graduated, got a job I loved, and made lifelong friends. Still, a soft nostalgia (乡愁) for Maine lingered, and I soon realized that “home” isn’t defined by the number of attractions a place has, but by the sense of comfort and belonging it brings. It’s the way the light falls on the ocean at sunset, the taste of my mom’s seafood chowder, and the familiarity of bumping into neighbors on the street. “Homesickness often arises when we’re missing the emotional comfort of a familiar environment, not just the place itself,” says Dr. Lisa Carter, a psychologist who specializes in human attachment. “We don’t just miss a location — we miss the routines, the relationships, and the sense of safety that location provided. For some, this comfort can be recreated in a new place; for others, it remains a unique part of their past.” Although the nostalgia for Maine has never truly faded, even after years of happy life in Chicago, there are simple ways to ease this kind of longing. Creating small, familiar rituals in your new life — like baking your hometown’s favorite cookies every Sunday or taking a walk in a nearby park at the same time each evening — can help build a new sense of stability. These little acts don’t erase the memories of home; instead, they weave those memories into the fabric of your present life. I’m fortunate to have a good foundation in Chicago, with a loving family, supportive friends and a comfortable home, but however much I love my life in Chicago, there’s a part of me that will forever belong to Maine. 4. Why did the author move to Chicago? A. To pursue her college education there. B. To take up a new job in the city center. C. To enjoy the various attractions it offered. D. To escape the boredom of her small hometown. 5. What does Dr. Lisa Carter think nostalgia mainly comes from? A. The loss of important relationships from the past. B. The difficulty in creating new routines in daily life. C. The disappointment with the new place’s environment. D. The lack of familiar emotional comfort in a new place. 6. What does Paragraph 4 mainly talk about? A. The methods of relieving nostalgic feelings. B. The significance of holding on to past memories. C. The permanence of the author’s nostalgia for Maine. D. The necessity of physical places for establishing a safe zone. 7. Which saying best summarizes the main idea of the text? A. Pleasure blinds one to home. B. Home keeps the wolf from the door. C. Home is where the heart is. D. When in Rome, do as the Romans do. Parrots are known for being cheerful and colorful birds with a chatty side. To spotlight these beautiful birds, Nayan Shrimal and Venus Bird from The Paper Ark have launched The Parrot Project, in which they create lifelike paper portraits (肖像) in their likeness for a good cause. “This series is a respect to these amazing birds and their contribution to our ecosystem,” the artists said. To them, parrots are not only beautiful birds that have inspired them creatively but also a species that has long been subjected to exploitation. “Many parrot species are threatened and some are near to extinction,” Shrimal and Bird explained. “They are suffering a lot due to deforestation and pet trade and we wanted to shine light on the importance of these species in our ecosystem through our art.” To create these realistic pieces, they begin by picking a species from their collection of bird books. Once they settle on a parrot, they carry out some online research to get all the information needed for a faithful description. “Each species is created keeping in mind their habitat so each artwork in this series shows the bird perching (栖息) on the tree or plant which is either their favorite plant or their perching tree,” the artists share. Each bird is made up of tiny paper bits, put together following a drawing previously made by the team. They also carefully paint each piece to truly capture the details that make the species so unique, such as the yellow spots on the head of the red-tailed black cockatoo or the ombre (渐变色) feathers of the Scarlet Macaw. The detailed portraits are now available for sale on The Paper Ark’s website, with the artists donating 10% from each sale towards parrot conservation. “Our primary purpose with this series is to motivate people to learn about these beautiful birds and their importance in our ecosystem and the threats they are facing,” Shrimal and Bird explain. “We want our audience to come together and take steps to conserve this species.” 8. What motivated Nayan Shrimal and Venus Bird to initiate The Parrot Project? A. The overpopulation of certain parrot species. B. The threats of human activities to the parrots. C. Their personal fascination with parrots as pets. D. The requirement of an environmental organization. 9. How do the artists ensure their paper parrots true to life? A. By using high-tech to create the models. B. By using real feathers in their artworks. C. By using photographs as a direct reference. D. By researching all details about the species. 10. Why are there specific trees or plants in the parrot portraits? A. To add artistic value to the portraits. B. To identify the parrot species easily. C. To show the bird in its natural habitat. D. To make the artworks more complicated. 11. What can The Parrot Project help do according to the text? A. To ban the pet trade of parrots. B. To connect people with animals. C. To research different species of parrots. D. To raise awareness of parrots’ conservation. Many organizations learned in the past year that remote work can be highly effective, with 83% of employers surveyed saying that the shift to remote work has been successful for their company, according to a PwC study. In addition, 54% of workers want to continue working remotely after the pandemic. Now that it's clear where the work is done is not as important as people once thought, the other dimension of flexibility workers fever is the freedom to determine when the work is done. A 2019 study by the International Workplace Group found that 80% of workers would turn down a job that did not offer a flexible work schedule, and 76% of workers said they'd consider staying at their current employer if they could work flexible hours. According to a Microsoft Work Trend Report, the 9-to-5 workday is disappearing, as the increase in remote work has allowed for more flexible hours. Employees are increasingly working asynchronously, completing tasks on their own schedules, which may be different from those of their colleagues. Asynchronous work is now essential to being part of a modern, digital economy, staying competitive in the war for talent, and building a globally distributed workforce. Tsedal Neeley, a Harvard Business School professor, told me, “Companies have to rethink what it means to be part of a modern work structure. This idea of 9-to-5 or face-time culture is actually not helpful for a digitally advanced economy.” She highlighted that the face-time culture is the need to monitor or see people in order to feel like work is advancing. However, this assumption that being productive requires seeing people do the work is not only limiting, but also unreasonable, as technology and automation are increasingly used to get work done and are not as observable as before. Asynchronous work, she says, is “a completely new mindset in line with a digital economy.” 12. What do the statistics in Para. 1 suggest? A. The effects of remote work. B. The importance of flexible work. C. The popularity of working alone. D. The preference for flexible working style. 13. What does the underlined word “asynchronously” in Para. 2 mean? A. Not at the same time. B. Without much creativity. C. For different purposes. D. Under unfavorable circumstances. 14. What attitude did Tsedal Neeley have towards 9-to-5 culture? A. Critical. B. Neutral. C. Indifferent. D. Supportive. 15. Which can be a suitable title for the text? A. Adjusting to “9-to-5” culture B. The change of digital economy C. The assumption of digital economy D. Breaking free from “9-to-5” culture 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出填入空白处的最佳选项。选项有两项为多余选项。 Green exercise is a term used to describe any type of physical exercise that takes place in a natural environment rather than in a health club or gym. ____16____.
