【原文】M: Hi, I’m Chris from Florida. Last year, I moved to London, where I’m working for an American company. It’s been a big change, and there have been lots of things to get used to. For example, in the U.S. we drive on the right, while here in Britain I’ve had to get used to driving on the left. What else? Well, the weather in Florida is usually great, so I’m used to lots of sunshine, and I used to sunbathe a lot. In London it rains so much. I don’t think I’ll ever get used to it, and I always remember to take my umbrella with me. Food in England is different, too. In America, I used to eat a lot of Mexican food. Here in England, people love Indian food, so I’m getting used to the different tastes. At the company where I work, it’s quite different. I used to work from 9:00 a.m. till 11:00 p.m. I hated working so late. Here in England, I start at 8:30 a.m., but finish at 5:00 p.m. On Friday evening, English people like to go to the club with friends, but in America I used to go to the gym. I love sports. Is there anything else? Some of the words are different. The subway is called the “underground” in London, and British people call the fall “autumn”.

UW Student Classical Music Jacoby Competition
The worlds of competition and classical music meet head-on as the University of Wyoming’s finest student musicians will be chosen during the UW Symphony Orchestra’s Jacoby Competition at 7:30 pm on May 6 in the Buchanan Center for the Performing Arts concert hall.
Tickets are $19 for the general public, $15 for the elderly and $9 for students. To order tickets, call (307) 766-6666 or go online at www.tix.com/ticket-sales/uwyo/6984.
The concert is named after Dorothy Jacoby, a musical and founding member of the local Symphony Association and a longtime supporter of classical music in Laramie. After her death, her sons, Peter and Michael Jacoby, made a generous contribution in honour of their mother.
“The Jacoby Competition never fails to be one of the UW Symphony Orchestra’s most exciting events,” says UW Department of Music Professor Michael Griffith. “What you will hear is actually the finals of a two-stage competition.”
Several months ago, many UW music students played their selected pieces in the audition (试演) round. A group of well-known musicians served as judges and chose the seven top students to perform in the finals concert. Another set of judges will be at the performance and will decide the best two performances of the evening. The winners will get the $2,500 prize that is awarded at the performance.
21. What is the ticket price for students to attend the concert?
A. $5. B. $9. C. $15. D. $19.
22. What were the music students required to do in the first round?
A. Produce the original work. B. Practice with these musicians.
C. Perform their picked music. D. Play pieces written by judges.
23. What will the winners receive?
A. Recordings. B. Cash awards. C. Concert tickets. D. Singing auditions.
【答案】21. B 22. C 23. B

“It’s like riding a bike” is a common comment when you want to remind someone that it’s hard to forget a basic skill. But what if you don’t know how to ride a bike?
This was something Annette Kruger, an avid (热衷的) cyclist, saw that was true for many women in Berlin, including refugees, who’d moved to there. Whether they weren’t allowed or didn’t have the opportunity to learn, these women had never experienced the health benefits and independence that cycling offers.
That is why, seven years ago, Kruger started Bikeygees, a non-profit organization focused on teaching women to ride a bike. The group members gather for two hours for training sessions every week. Advanced riders can borrow bikes and helmets for free to practise on their own.
The group also teaches women how to fix bikes, instilling (逐步培养) a sense of self-sufficiency, says Kruger. If they can do bike repairs, ride and learn the German rules of the road, they are awarded with a bike kit, including a bike, a helmet, a bike lock and bike tools. More than 500 bikes have been donated so far, and Kruger says the goal is to eventually provide all participants with their own bikes. To date, the group has taught more than 1,400 women and has met in more than 20 locations within Germany, including in emergency shelters.
Participants have said that riding a bike allows them not only freedom of movement — some of the women use them to bring their children to school — but also hope for the future. Kruger says that she can see the impact that concentrating on a new skill has on the women. “We can’t replace what someone lost in their life, but we can offer something new. The success is measured in the smiles of the riders when they conquer another bike skill.” She recalls one student in her 60s who continued to practice through a bitter winter. She said, “This is a dream for me. I have been waiting my whole life to do this.”
24. What did the women in Berlin obtain from Bikeygees?
A. Opportunities to learn German. B. Chances to move away from Berlin.
C. Attention to their living conditions. D. Fitness and freedom to get around.
25. What do we learn about the Bikeygees project?
A. It becomes increasingly popular. B. It has made large profits.
C. It offers more bikes than needed. D. It allows beginners to practise individually.
26. Which is a benefit for the participants from the last paragraph?
A. A fund for women. B. The capacity to earn money.
C. The freedom of their children. D. A prospect of future life.
27. Which of the following best describes Annette Kruger?
A. Energetic. B. Caring. C. Humorous. D. Honest.
【答案】24. D 25. A 26. D 27. B
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了自行车爱好者Annette Kruger成立非营利性组织Bikeygees,让柏林的女性体验骑自行车带来的健康益处和独立性。
【24题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“Whether they weren’t allowed or didn’t have the opportunity to learn, these women had never experienced the health benefits and independence that cycling offers.(无论是不被允许还是没有机会学习,这些女性都从未体验过骑自行车带来的健康益处和独立性)”和第三段中“That is why, seven years ago, Kruger started Bikeygees, a non-profit organization focused on teaching women to ride a bike.(这就是为什么Kruger在七年前创办了一个非营利组织Bikeygees,专注于教女性骑自行车)”以及最后一段中“Participants have said that riding a bike allows them not only freedom of movement(参与者说,骑自行车不仅让他们行动自由)”可知,柏林的女性能从Bikeygees获得健康益处和行动自由的机会。故选D。
【25题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段中“More than 500 bikes have been donated so far, and Kruger says the goal is to eventually provide all participants with their own bikes. To date, the group has taught more than 1,400 women and has met in more than 20 locations within Germany, including in emergency shelters.(到目前为止,已经捐赠了500多辆自行车,Kruger说,他们的目标是最终为所有参与者提供自己的自行车。迄今为止,该小组已经教了1400多名妇女,并在德国20多个地点举行了会议,包括在紧急避难所)”可推知,Bikeygees组织变得越来越受欢迎。故选A。
【26题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段中“Participants have said that riding a bike allows them not only freedom of movement — some of the women use them to bring their children to school — but also hope for the future.(参与者说,骑自行车不仅让他们行动自由——一些妇女骑着自行车送孩子上学——而且让他们对未来充满希望)”可知,Bikeygees组织带给参与者的一个好处是让她们对未来充满希望。故选D。
【27题详解】
推理判断题。根据全文内容,结合第三段中“That is why, seven years ago, Kruger started Bikeygees, a non-profit organization focused on teaching women to ride a bike.(这就是为什么Kruger在七年前创办了一个非营利组织Bikeygees,专注于教女性骑自行车)”和第四段中“The group also teaches women how to fix bikes, instilling (逐步培养) a sense of self-sufficiency, says Kruger.(Kruger说,该组织还教女性如何修理自行车,灌输一种自给自足的意识)”可知,Kruger创办非营利组织Bikeygees,教女性骑自行车和如何修理自行车,让柏林的女性体验骑自行车带来的健康益处和独立性。由此推知,她是一个很关心他人的人。故选B。
C
The Forbidden City is well known for being full of Chinese cultural and historical relics. But Masters in the Forbidden City (《我在故宫修文物》) does not just focus on the stories of the past. Instead, the documentary movie, which came out in Chinese cinemas on 16 December, focuses on ordinary people — the restorers of relics and antiquities (古董).
The stories are told at a slow and relaxed pace, reflecting the restorers’ work. Restoration of cultural relics and antiques can be time-consuming, and sometimes boring. Yet these restorers’ patience and peace of mind are especially precious in a society where everything is changing so fast.
“If you choose this job, you have to stand hours of work sitting on a chair. You need to be quiet and get used to being quiet,” says Wang Jin, an ancient clock repair expert.
A touching part of the documentary is the spirit of craftsmanship in the restorers. “Years of humdrum work requires not only skill, but also faith and spirit,” China Daily commented. “Looking for preciseness and perfection, devoting yourself to work, patience, endurance, loneliness... all these qualities come from the craftsman spirit. ”
But unlike the popular idea of serious experts who sit around being serious, the documentary shows off the enthusiasm of the restorers. They play their guitars and make jokes about each other after a long day of restoration work.
One scene that has been very popular with Internet users features a young female restorer riding a bicycle through the empty Forbidden City on a Monday. While she is doing this, a narrator says, “The last person to do this was Pu Yi, the last emperor of the Qing Dynasty.”
Masters in the Forbidden City has proved many people’s wrong ideas about antique restorers, allowing them to realise that they are not old, dull professors, but people in their 40s, 30s and even 20s who can be quite pleasing to the eye.
28. Why is the documentary movie made?
A. To show people how antiques are restored.
B. To display relics seldom seen by ordinary people.
C. To draw attention to Chinese antique restorers’ lives.
D. To praise the craftsmanship of Chinese antique restorers.
29. What does Wang Jin mean in paragraph 3?
A. He often gets tired with his work.
B. There is no need to do restoration work fast.
C. Antique restorers need to be patient and peaceful.
D. It takes years of hard work to adapt to antique restoration.
30. What does the underlined word “humdrum” most probably mean?
A. Boring. B. Different. C. Relaxing. D. Unusual.
31. What’s the purpose of the bicycle-riding scene in the movie?
A. To remind the audience of the last Qing emperor.
B. To show the strange hobbies of young antique restorers.
C. To encourage the young to consider a career in antique restoration in the future.
D. To show that the documentary breaks from the old, dull image of antique restorers.
【答案】28. C 29. C 30. A 31. D
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了纪录片《我在故宫修文物》所反映出的中国古董修复师的工匠精神。
【28题详解】
推理判断题。文章第一段“Instead, the documentary movie, which came out in Chinese cinemas on 16 December, focuses on ordinary people — the restorers of relics and antiquities”。(相反,这部纪录片电影,12月16日在中国影院上映,关注普通民众——文物和文物的修复(古董)。)可知,纪录片《我在故宫修文物》的主要目的是让人们关注中国古董修复师的生活,故选C项。
【29题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“Yet these restorers’ patience and peace of mind are especially precious in a society where everything is changing so fast.”( 然而,在一个一切都在快速变化的社会里,这些修复者的耐心和平和尤为珍贵。)可知,王进的话就是解释这一点,在他看来古董修复师需要耐心和平和,故选C项。
【30题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第四段“A touching part of the documentary is the spirit of craftsmanship in the restorers. “Years of humdrum work requires not only skill, but also faith and spirit,” China Daily commented.”(纪录片中令人感动的部分是修复者们的工匠精神。“多年的humdrum工作不仅需要技能,还需要信念和精神,”《中国日报》评论道。)及“Looking for preciseness and perfection, devoting yourself to work, patience, endurance, loneliness... all these qualities come from the craftsman spirit. ”(追求严谨和完美,全身心投入工作,耐心,忍耐,孤独……, 所有这些品质都来自于工匠精神”),可看出文物修复工作不仅仅是信念,还需要耐心,忍耐,孤独。可推知这份工作是枯燥的,故选A项。
【31题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章倒数第二段“One scene that has been very popular with Internet users features a young female restorer riding a bicycle through the empty Forbidden City on a Monday. While she is doing this, a narrator says, “The last person to do this was Pu Yi, the last emperor of the Qing Dynasty.”( 一个在网民中非常受欢迎的场景是,一位年轻的女修复师周一骑着自行车穿过空无一人的紫禁城。当她这样做的时候,旁白说,“最后一个这样做的人是清朝的最后一个皇帝溥仪。”)可知,纪录片中的自行车骑行场景用来表明纪录片打破了古老的沉闷图像,故选D。
D
Dancing lowers the depression associated with Parkinson’s disease, and the benefits can be seen in multiple ways, a new study shows.
“It was very cool to see dance had a positive effect on the mood circuits in the brain, which we could see in the imaging from MRI brain scans (扫描),” says Joseph DeSouza, author of the study. “These improvements were also reported by the participants via survey. Our study is the first to demonstrate these benefits across these two detection methods.”
The study followed 23 participants with Parkinson’s disease from the Sharing Dance Parkinson’s program at Canada’s National Ballet School, along with family members or caregivers. Participants took weekly dance classes for 8 months, progressing from simple leg and foot work to more complex movements like waltzes and more. The research team focused on the subcallosal cingulate gyrus (SCG), a brain region linked to depression. They measured mood and depression before and after each class using the Geriatric Depression Scale (GDS) (老年抑郁量表) and conducted regular MRI scans.
The researchers found that after each dance class, reported depression rates dropped, and the effect was increasing from class to class, with significant improvements after 8 months. “We showed that SCG’s BOLD (blood oxygen level dependent) signal decreases while dancing, which means the SCG was not functioning as fast as it would if you had depression,” says DeSouza. “Parkinson’s disease is often accompanied by depression long before motor symptoms (症状) appear.”
Dance is thought to have a double benefit, with music activating the brain’s reward centers, and the movement acting on sensory and motor circuits. DeSouza, dancing with participants for 14 years, says that while dancing is not a treatment for Parkinson’s disease by itself, the benefits are clear. “We’re not trying to cure it with dance,” he says. “What we’re trying to do is to have people live a better quality of life. This goes for both the patients, and their families that take care of them.”
32. What do we know about the results of the two detection methods?
A. They fall short of expectations.
B. They are more accurate than before.
C. They are distinct from each other.
D. They show consistent conclusions.
33. How did the researchers conduct the study?
A. By referring to previous studies. B. By making pre-post comparisons.
C. By employing computer modeling. D. By conducting drug experiments.
34. What did the researchers find about the SCG?
A. It is in charge of motor system.
B. It can be measured by the GDS.
C. Dancing slows down its functioning.
D. Depression weakens its BOLD signal.
35. What is the best title of the text?
A. Dancing Away Parkinson’s Blues B. Dancing: Multiple Benefits To Be Seen
C. Dancing With Your Mood Circuits D. Dancing: A Journey To Mental Well-being
【答案】32. D 33. B 34. C 35. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了舞蹈可缓解帕金森病患者的抑郁症状,通过MRI扫描和问卷调查验证其效果。
【32题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“Our study is the first to demonstrate these benefits across these two detection methods. (我们的研究是首次通过这两种检测方法来证明这些益处的。)”可知,这两种检测方法均可以证明益处,即它们得出了一致的结论。故选D。
【33题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“They measured mood and depression before and after each class using the Geriatric Depression Scale (GDS) (老年抑郁量表) and conducted regular MRI scans. (他们使用老年抑郁量表(GDS)在每节课前后测量情绪和抑郁,并定期进行MRI扫描。)”可知,研究人员在每节课前后测量情绪和抑郁,是通过前后对比来进行研究的。故选B。
【34题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段“We showed that SCG’s BOLD (blood oxygen level dependent) signal decreases while dancing, which means the SCG was not functioning as fast as it would if you had depression, (我们发现,SCG的BOLD(血氧水平依赖性)信号在跳舞时会减弱,这意味着SCG的功能不如抑郁症患者运行得那么快)”可知,跳舞会让SCG的运行速度放缓。故选C。
【35题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段“Dancing lowers the depression associated with Parkinson’s disease, and the benefits can be seen in multiple ways, a new study shows. (一项新的研究表明,跳舞可以降低与帕金森氏症相关的抑郁,其益处通过多种方式看出。)”以及文章内容可知,本文主要介绍了舞蹈可缓解帕金森病患者的抑郁症状,通过MRI扫描和问卷调查验证其效果,所以“跳舞远离帕金森氏症的忧郁”适合作为文章标题。故选A。

Sharing is regarded as both a social morality and a personal virtue. It is a wonderful thing that increases pleasure and reduces sorrow. Then why do we tend to be happier when sharing with others? ____36____
Sharing is Fundamental to Human Relationships
We have shared with others since the beginning of civilization and interaction. It is one of the primary ways we learn to communicate. ____37____ People from these cultures open up their homes to traveling visitors and those curious about learning their cultural practices. However, sharing doesn’t always need to be this grand gesture. Simple acts like exchanging compliments can also brighten up a person’s day and make them feel more positive.
Sharing Releases Oxytocin (催产素), the Wellness Hormone (激素)
____38____ Oxytocin helps build trust, relieve stress and anxiety, improve immune (免疫的) function and benefit your overall well-being as a result. When people are in possession of generous levels of Oxytocin in their bodies, they are more empathetic (有同感的) towards others and feel more generous than they would in normal circumstances. You can gain Oxytocin even by making online donations. You need not have to physically share in person to experience the benefits of the hormone.
____39____
When you share your belongings with others, you are expressing trust in their ability to keep your possession safe and out of harm’s way. If your trust pays off in them, you experience a sense of happiness. We tend to be more emotionally satisfied and happy when we are able to build trust in our relationships. Trust and happiness are closely related experience.
Sharing Helps Build You a Social Network
Humans are social animals. ____40____ If we happen to have encouraging and supportive friends and family to rely on, we are less prone (倾向于) to anxiety and depression. However, if we tend to lack a reliable social support system in our lives, our happiness can suffer. Sharing helps build new relationships. Social interactions advance your health, wealth and general wellbeing.
A. Sharing Reduces Negative Emotion.
B. Sharing Helps Build Trust.
C. Some cultures more than others, encourage sharing.
D. Let’s discuss how sharing and happiness are related.

根据上文“Sharing is regarded as both a social morality and a personal virtue. It is a wonderful thing that increases pleasure and reduces sorrow. Then why do we tend to be happier when sharing with others?(分享被认为是一种社会道德和个人美德。它能增加快乐,减少悲伤,这是一件奇妙的事情。那么,为什么我们在与他人分享时往往更快乐呢?)”结合后文主要解释了分享和快乐之间的关系。故D选项“让我们讨论分享和快乐是如何相关的”符合语境。
【37题详解】
根据后文“People from these cultures open up their homes to traveling visitors and those curious about learning their cultural practices.(来自这些文化的人们向旅行的游客和那些对了解他们的文化习俗感到好奇的人敞开家门)”可知,后文提到有些文化的人欢迎他人来了解自己的文化,说明这些文化乐于分享。故C选项“有些文化比其他文化更鼓励分享”符合语境。
【38题详解】
根据后文“Oxytocin helps build trust, relieve stress and anxiety, improve immune (免疫的) function and benefit your overall wellbeing as a result.(催产素有助于建立信任,缓解压力和焦虑,提高免疫功能,从而有益于你的整体健康)”可知,后文提到了催产素的作用,推测本句是在说明催产素的来源。故E选项“当一个人分享或感到感激时,他们的大脑会释放催产素”符合语境。
【39题详解】
根据本段内容“When you share your belongings with others, you are expressing trust in their ability to keep your possession safe and out of harm’s way. If your trust pays off in them, you experience a sense of happiness. We tend to be more emotionally satisfied and happy when we are able to build trust in our relationships. Trust and happiness are closely related experience.(当你与他人分享你的财产时,你是在表达对他们有能力保护你的财产安全、不受伤害的信任。如果你对他们的信任得到了回报,你会体验到一种幸福感。当我们能够在人际关系中建立信任时,我们往往会在情感上更加满足和快乐。信任和幸福是密切相关的经验)”可知,本段的主旨是分享可以帮助建立与他人的信任,B选项Trust对应后文trust。故B选项“分享有助于建立信任”符合语境。
【40题详解】
根据上文“Humans are social animals.(人类是社会性动物)”以及后文“If we happen to have encouraging and supportive friends and family to rely on, we are less prone (倾向于) to anxiety and depression. However, if we tend to lack a reliable social support system in our lives, our happiness can suffer. Sharing helps build new relationships. Social interactions advance your health, wealth and general wellbeing.(如果我们有鼓励和支持我们的朋友和家人可以依靠,我们就不那么容易焦虑和抑郁。然而,如果我们在生活中缺乏可靠的社会支持系统,我们的幸福就会受到影响。分享有助于建立新的关系。社交互动会促进你的健康、财富和整体幸福感)”可知,后文主要提到了社会支持会影响我们的幸福。故F选项“我们的幸福在很大程度上取决于社会支持的存在”符合语境。

第二节(满分25分)
67. 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。
Catherine was the coolest kid in her class. Whenever she went, she was in the spotlight, with a bunch of kids following her and doing everything she did.
Her classmate, Landy, however, was not in the cool kids’ group. Being the tallest kid in her class, she was laughed at by her classmates, who were always chanting (唱起……歌) “Landy, Landy, long as spaghetti (意大利面).”
Catherine didn’t really like it when the kids chanted “Landy, Landy, long as spaghetti”. But she never told them to stop either, and nor did she ever talk to her. She liked being popular.
One weekend, Catherine went over to visit her grandfather. Her grandfather lives on a farm, where he keeps chickens. While helping to feed the chickens, Catherine noticed a special one. Hidden in the corner, it looked smaller than the others and was almost half-bare!
“What’s the matter with it?” She asked her grandfather, with a puzzled frown on her face. Her grandfather told her how chickens could act. “They have a pecking (啄) order,” he explained, wrinkles of concern spreading around his forehead. “If one chicken is different, the others will push it away and keep pecking it. Sometimes they peck it so much that it dies.”
“Oh, what a poor little thing!” Catherine let out a sigh as she picked the frightened chicken up in her arms, whose heart was beating fast in the bony little body. Suddenly, she thought of Landy, the girl being “pecked” by her classmates. “I’m going to take it home and take good care of it,” she said with a determined look.
Back in school, Catherine told the cool kids about the chicken. “It’s looking healthy,” she said proudly. “It’s fatter and its feathers are growing. Even the cat likes it. She carries it around, and...” Everyone was entertained by Catherine’s story of her lovely chicken, laughter spreading around the classroom.
注意:
1.续写词数应为150左右;
2.请按如下格式在相应位置作答。
Paragraph 1:
Then Catherine spotted Landy seated alone in a corner.
_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Paragraph 2:
But Catherine walked directly toward Landy, no matter what they said.
_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】范文
Then Catherine spotted Landy seated alone in a corner. She ducked her head with her eyes fixed on the floor as usual. It hit Catherine that the pecking order worked in school, too. Landy was just like the poor little chicken, being teased and ignored by her classmates, merely due to her special height. “It’s high time to do something for a change.” Catherine thought to herself. Having made up her mind, she urged the rest cool kids to make peace with Landy. Astonished at what she said, all the kids burst out screaming, “Talking to the long spaghetti? Are you crazy?”
But Catherine walked directly toward Landy, no matter what they said. “Landy, sorry about the spaghetti thing. I should have realized it earlier. Can you forgive us?” Catherine murmured an apology, her face reddening. She figured Landy might just walk away. But she lifted her misty eyes and nodded yes. Catherine wiped away her tears, giving her a warm hug. Moved by the scene, the other kids also came to offer their sincere apologies to Landy. From that day on, no one made up silly chants about Landy, and Catherine also learned that everyone should be treated equally no matter how special he or she was.
【解析】
【导语】本文以班里同学关系为线索展开,讲述了班里最酷的孩子Catherine受到同学众星捧月般的欢迎。而她的同桌Landy却受到冷落,因为她个头最高,同学们给她起了侮辱性的外号“意大利面条”。Catherine在祖父的农场发现一只被其它的鸡欺负的可怜的小鸡,深感同情,从而联想到Landy,意识到大家不应该欺负她,Catherine回到学校后,号召大家团结Landy的故事。
【详解】1.段落续写:
①由第一段首句内容“Then Catherine spotted Landy seated alone in a corner.(然后Catherine发现Landy独自坐在角落里。)”可知,第一段描写Catherine发现Landy被冷落的样子而产生的联想,Catherine准备道歉,引起其他同学的惊讶或不满。
②由第二段首句内容“But Catherine walked directly toward Landy, no matter what they said. (Catherine不顾他们说什么径直朝Landy走去。)”可知,第二段描写Catherine主动找Landy道歉,Landy和其他同学深受感动。
2. 续写线索:Catherine看到孤独呆在角落里的Landy——Catherine想到了“受欺凌”的小鸡——Catherine想要改变——Catherine希望大家向Landy道歉——Catherine独自走向Landy并道歉——Landy原谅,彼此拥抱——大家和平相处
3. 词汇激活行为类
①低下头:duck one’s head/ lower one’s head/ hang one’s head
②使某人突然想到:hit/occur/be stuck
③嘲笑:tease/laugh at/make fun of
情绪类
①震惊的:shocked/astonished/amazed/surprised
②疯狂的:crazy/mad
【点睛】[高分句型1]Having made up her mind, she urged the rest cool kids to make peace with Landy.(运用了现在分词短语作状语)
[高分句型2].Astonished at what she said, all the kids burst out screaming, “Talking to the long spaghetti? Are you crazy?”(运用了what引导宾语从句)

The concert is named after Dorothy Jacoby, a musical and founding member of the local Symphony Association and a longtime supporter of classical music in Laramie. After her death, her sons, Peter and Michael Jacoby, made a generous contribution in honour of their mother.
“The Jacoby Competition never fails to be one of the UW Symphony Orchestra’s most exciting events,” says UW Department of Music Professor Michael Griffith. “What you will hear is actually the finals of a two-stage competition.”
Several months ago, many UW music students played their selected pieces in the audition (试演) round. A group of well-known musicians served as judges and chose the seven top students to perform in the finals concert. Another set of judges will be at the performance and will decide the best two performances of the evening. The winners will get the $2,500 prize that is awarded at the performance.
21. What is the ticket price for students to attend the concert?
A. $5. B. $9. C. $15. D. $19.
22. What were the music students required to do in the first round?
A. Produce the original work. B. Practice with these musicians.
C. Perform their picked music. D. Play pieces written by judges.

“It’s like riding a bike” is a common comment when you want to remind someone that it’s hard to forget a basic skill. But what if you don’t know how to ride a bike?
This was something Annette Kruger, an avid (热衷的) cyclist, saw that was true for many women in Berlin, including refugees, who’d moved to there. Whether they weren’t allowed or didn’t have the opportunity to learn, these women had never experienced the health benefits and independence that cycling offers.
That is why, seven years ago, Kruger started Bikeygees, a non-profit organization focused on teaching women to ride a bike. The group members gather for two hours for training sessions every week. Advanced riders can borrow bikes and helmets for free to practise on their own.
The group also teaches women how to fix bikes, instilling (逐步培养) a sense of self-sufficiency, says Kruger. If they can do bike repairs, ride and learn the German rules of the road, they are awarded with a bike kit, including a bike, a helmet, a bike lock and bike tools. More than 500 bikes have been donated so far, and Kruger says the goal is to eventually provide all participants with their own bikes. To date, the group has taught more than 1,400 women and has met in more than 20 locations within Germany, including in emergency shelters.
Participants have said that riding a bike allows them not only freedom of movement — some of the women use them to bring their children to school — but also hope for the future. Kruger says that she can see the impact that concentrating on a new skill has on the women. “We can’t replace what someone lost in their life, but we can offer something new. The success is measured in the smiles of the riders when they conquer another bike skill.” She recalls one student in her 60s who continued to practice through a bitter winter. She said, “This is a dream for me. I have been waiting my whole life to do this.”
24. What did the women in Berlin obtain from Bikeygees?
A. Opportunities to learn German. B. Chances to move away from Berlin.
C. Attention to their living conditions. D. Fitness and freedom to get around.
25. What do we learn about the Bikeygees project?
A. It becomes increasingly popular. B. It has made large profits.
C. It offers more bikes than needed. D. It allows beginners to practise individually.
26. Which is a benefit for the participants from the last paragraph?
A. A fund for women. B. The capacity to earn money.
C. The freedom of their children. D. A prospect of future life.
27. Which of the following best describes Annette Kruger?
A. Energetic. B. Caring. C. Humorous. D. Honest.
C
The Forbidden City is well known for being full of Chinese cultural and historical relics. But Masters in the Forbidden City (《我在故宫修文物》) does not just focus on the stories of the past. Instead, the documentary movie, which came out in Chinese cinemas on 16 December, focuses on ordinary people — the restorers of relics and antiquities (古董).
The stories are told at a slow and relaxed pace, reflecting the restorers’ work. Restoration of cultural relics and antiques can be time-consuming, and sometimes boring. Yet these restorers’ patience and peace of mind are especially precious in a society where everything is changing so fast.
“If you choose this job, you have to stand hours of work sitting on a chair. You need to be quiet and get used to being quiet,” says Wang Jin, an ancient clock repair expert.
A touching part of the documentary is the spirit of craftsmanship in the restorers. “Years of humdrum work requires not only skill, but also faith and spirit,” China Daily commented. “Looking for preciseness and perfection, devoting yourself to work, patience, endurance, loneliness... all these qualities come from the craftsman spirit. ”
But unlike the popular idea of serious experts who sit around being serious, the documentary shows off the enthusiasm of the restorers. They play their guitars and make jokes about each other after a long day of restoration work.
One scene that has been very popular with Internet users features a young female restorer riding a bicycle through the empty Forbidden City on a Monday. While she is doing this, a narrator says, “The last person to do this was Pu Yi, the last emperor of the Qing Dynasty.”
Masters in the Forbidden City has proved many people’s wrong ideas about antique restorers, allowing them to realise that they are not old, dull professors, but people in their 40s, 30s and even 20s who can be quite pleasing to the eye.
28. Why is the documentary movie made?
A. To show people how antiques are restored.
B. To display relics seldom seen by ordinary people.
C. To draw attention to Chinese antique restorers’ lives.
D. To praise the craftsmanship of Chinese antique restorers.
29. What does Wang Jin mean in paragraph 3?
A. He often gets tired with his work.
B. There is no need to do restoration work fast.
C. Antique restorers need to be patient and peaceful.
D. It takes years of hard work to adapt to antique restoration.
30. What does the underlined word “humdrum” most probably mean?
A. Boring. B. Different. C. Relaxing. D. Unusual.
31. What’s the purpose of the bicycle-riding scene in the movie?
A. To remind the audience of the last Qing emperor.
B. To show the strange hobbies of young antique restorers.
C. To encourage the young to consider a career in antique restoration in the future.
D. To show that the documentary breaks from the old, dull image of antique restorers.
D
Dancing lowers the depression associated with Parkinson’s disease, and the benefits can be seen in multiple ways, a new study shows.
“It was very cool to see dance had a positive effect on the mood circuits in the brain, which we could see in the imaging from MRI brain scans (扫描),” says Joseph DeSouza, author of the study. “These improvements were also reported by the participants via survey. Our study is the first to demonstrate these benefits across these two detection methods.”
The study followed 23 participants with Parkinson’s disease from the Sharing Dance Parkinson’s program at Canada’s National Ballet School, along with family members or caregivers. Participants took weekly dance classes for 8 months, progressing from simple leg and foot work to more complex movements like waltzes and more. The research team focused on the subcallosal cingulate gyrus (SCG), a brain region linked to depression. They measured mood and depression before and after each class using the Geriatric Depression Scale (GDS) (老年抑郁量表) and conducted regular MRI scans.
The researchers found that after each dance class, reported depression rates dropped, and the effect was increasing from class to class, with significant improvements after 8 months. “We showed that SCG’s BOLD (blood oxygen level dependent) signal decreases while dancing, which means the SCG was not functioning as fast as it would if you had depression,” says DeSouza. “Parkinson’s disease is often accompanied by depression long before motor symptoms (症状) appear.”
Dance is thought to have a double benefit, with music activating the brain’s reward centers, and the movement acting on sensory and motor circuits. DeSouza, dancing with participants for 14 years, says that while dancing is not a treatment for Parkinson’s disease by itself, the benefits are clear. “We’re not trying to cure it with dance,” he says. “What we’re trying to do is to have people live a better quality of life. This goes for both the patients, and their families that take care of them.”
32. What do we know about the results of the two detection methods?
A. They fall short of expectations.
B. They are more accurate than before.
C. They are distinct from each other.
D. They show consistent conclusions.
33. How did the researchers conduct the study?
A. By referring to previous studies. B. By making pre-post comparisons.
C. By employing computer modeling. D. By conducting drug experiments.
34. What did the researchers find about the SCG?
A. It is in charge of motor system.
B. It can be measured by the GDS.
C. Dancing slows down its functioning.
D. Depression weakens its BOLD signal.
35. What is the best title of the text?
A. Dancing Away Parkinson’s Blues B. Dancing: Multiple Benefits To Be Seen
C. Dancing With Your Mood Circuits D. Dancing: A Journey To Mental Well-being

Catherine was the coolest kid in her class. Whenever she went, she was in the spotlight, with a bunch of kids following her and doing everything she did.
Her classmate, Landy, however, was not in the cool kids’ group. Being the tallest kid in her class, she was laughed at by her classmates, who were always chanting (唱起……歌) “Landy, Landy, long as spaghetti (意大利面).”
Catherine didn’t really like it when the kids chanted “Landy, Landy, long as spaghetti”. But she never told them to stop either, and nor did she ever talk to her. She liked being popular.
One weekend, Catherine went over to visit her grandfather. Her grandfather lives on a farm, where he keeps chickens. While helping to feed the chickens, Catherine noticed a special one. Hidden in the corner, it looked smaller than the others and was almost half-bare!
“What’s the matter with it?” She asked her grandfather, with a puzzled frown on her face. Her grandfather told her how chickens could act. “They have a pecking (啄) order,” he explained, wrinkles of concern spreading around his forehead. “If one chicken is different, the others will push it away and keep pecking it. Sometimes they peck it so much that it dies.”
“Oh, what a poor little thing!” Catherine let out a sigh as she picked the frightened chicken up in her arms, whose heart was beating fast in the bony little body. Suddenly, she thought of Landy, the girl being “pecked” by her classmates. “I’m going to take it home and take good care of it,” she said with a determined look.
Back in school, Catherine told the cool kids about the chicken. “It’s looking healthy,” she said proudly. “It’s fatter and its feathers are growing. Even the cat likes it. She carries it around, and...” Everyone was entertained by Catherine’s story of her lovely chicken, laughter spreading around the classroom.
注意:
1.续写词数应为150左右;

Then Catherine spotted Landy seated alone in a corner.
