As summer temperatures rise, so does the night-time economy. Data show that the time after working hours is the “golden time” for consumption in urban areas. For example, the sales of large shopping malls from 6 pm to 10 pm account for more than half of the day’s total sales. Major cities in China and abroad have introduced many measures to promote the night-time economy. For instance, Beijing and Shanghai have issued several policies, and cities such as Hangzhou and Nanjing have introduced various activities to boost night-time consumption. Now that the consumer market is firmly on the recovery path in China, the night-time economy can meet people’s social and recreational needs and increase domestic demand. As the situation normalizes in China, the night-time economy can help increase market supply, promote the integrated development of business, travel, culture, sports and other service industries. The night-time economy fits well with the post-industrial urbanization trend and enhances a city’s charm while facilitating the flow of goods, capital and information. To ensure the sustainable development of the night-time economy, the government and enterprises have to make joint efforts to optimize the consumption environment and use innovative means to increase consumption. First, to meet the diversified consumption needs, services such as catering and shopping should go along with night life. Second, night-time economy brands should be developed by learning from the experience of cities around the world. Third, the authority could consider extending the opening hours of museums, libraries and concert halls to draw more visitors for the development of the night-time economy. And fourth, it is important that consumers exhibit civilized behavior, and the authority promotes a simple, moderate, green and low-carbon lifestyle in order to ensure the sustainable development of the night-time economy. 1. Which is one of the reasons for the rise of the night-time economy? A. Working hours are extended. B. People need to relieve stress. C. Government policies favor it. D. Summer offers more recreational options. 2. What is Paragraph 3 mainly about? A. Positive impacts of the night-time economy. B. Opportunities brought by the night-time economy. C. Views on the rapid growth of the night-time economy. D. Reasons for the development of the night-time economy. 3. What does “optimize” most likely mean in paragraph 4? A. Maintain. B. Purify. C. Simplify. D. Enhance. 4. How should the government sustain the night-time economy? A. Promote our night-time business globally. B. Lower museum ticket prices at night. C. Consider people’s nightlife needs. D. Ensure sellers operate in a low-carbon manner. 【答案】1. B 2. A 3. D 4. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了夜间经济对于社会经济发展的影响以及它所展示出的巨大潜力，并且提出了可持续发展夜间经济的建议。 【1题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段第一句话“Given the stressful nature of work in cities and the fast-paced urban life, after-work hours have become an important time for people to relieve some of the stress and meet their social and recreational needs.(鉴于城市工作的压力和快节奏的城市生活，下班后的时间已经成为人们缓解压力、满足社交和娱乐需求的重要时间)”可知，下班时间已经成为人们减轻部分压力并满足自己社交和娱乐需求的重要时段；由此可知，人们解压的需求是夜间经济兴起的原因之一。 【2题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第三段“Now that the consumer market is firmly on the recovery path in China, the night-time economy can meet people’s social and recreational needs and increase domestic demand. As the situation normalizes in China, the night-time economy can help increase market supply, promote the integrated development of business, travel, culture, sports and other service industries. The night-time economy fits well with the post-industrial urbanization trend and enhances a city’s charm while facilitating the flow of goods, capital and information.(现在，中国的消费市场正在稳步复苏，夜间经济可以满足人们的社交和娱乐需求，增加国内需求。随着形势在中国趋于正常，夜间经济有助于增加市场供给，促进商业、旅游、文化、体育等服务业的融合发展。夜间经济顺应了后工业时代的城市化趋势，在促进商品、资金和信息流动的同时，也增强了城市的魅力)”可知，本段主要讨论的是中国的夜间经济和消费对经济增长的影响，先后提到：①消费市场复苏，夜间经济满足社交和娱乐需求，增加国内需求；②夜间经济促进市场供应和服务行业的综合发展。由此可知，本段介绍了夜间经济发展的积极影响和贡献。 【3题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第四段第一句“To ensure the sustainable development of the night-time economy, the government and enterprises have to make joint efforts to optimize the consumption environment and use innovative means to increase consumption.(为了保证夜间经济的可持续发展，政府和企业必须共同努力，optimize消费环境，利用创新手段增加消费)”可推测，此处想要表达的意思是，政府和企业共同努力来改善，优化消费环境。划线词意思为“优化，提高”。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段第二句“First, to meet the diversified consumption needs, services such as catering (饮食服务) and shopping should go along with night life.(首先，为了满足多样化的消费需求，饮食服务和购物等服务应该伴随着夜生活)”可知，要满足各种各样的消费需求，各种服务应该与夜生活相配套。 B Why do life’s challenges make some people stronger and others weaker? The answer may lie in how our minds and genes interact. A new research project is now investigating the cognitive and genetic mechanisms that cause some people to flourish and others to struggle. Until now, research into cognitive biases and genetics has been entirely separate, so bringing them together in this research is really exciting. Previous research clearly tells us that certain sets of genes may lead people to develop anxiety or depression when they experience negative life events. But the new research finds that, in certain situations, those genes can also be a real benefit to people when they’re in supportive environments. If a child with so-called risky genes is in a good school and has much support, he or she can really flourish. We’re beginning to realize that we shouldn’t call them risky genes, but sensitivity genes. This means that some people at risk of mental health problems could, in the right conditions, be really happy. The other side of the research looks at cognitive biases. People always say: “Why is the media full of negative news stories?” This negativity can result in a society where people feel very anxious all the time. All of our brains are naturally tuned into negativity for evolutionary reasons - it’s more important to spot a predator (捕食者) than food-but this is especially true for anxious or depressed people. They are even more sensitive to the effects of negative information, making it more likely that they will adopt a pessimistic habit of mind. Crucially, these same people who are more affected by negativity are also more likely to be responsive to positive situations and, potentially, to psychological interventions. Right now, the researchers are on a five-year project and only halfway through. One of the exciting things is the possibility of developing much more personalized treatment options for psychological disorders. Once we know this, we will be in a better position to tailor treatments for individuals, rather than applying the one-size-fits-all approach used now. 5. What’s the focus of the new research? A. Attitudes to different life choices. B. The influence of negative experiences. C. Responsive mechanisms to challenges. D. The relationship between environment and genes. 6. How do the researchers arrive at the realization about “risky genes”? A. By clarifying an assumption. B. By comparing different situations. C. By adjusting research procedures. D. By analyzing effects of different genes. 7. What makes people sensitive to negativity according to paragraph 3? A. Pressure from modern life. B. Built-in survival mode. C. Exposure to negative reports. D. Drive for food resources. 8. Who might benefit more from the research? A. People with genetic disorders. B. People having high-risk lifestyles. C. People with mental health condition. D. People unwilling to accept challenges. 【答案】5. C 6. B 7. B 8. C 【解析】 【导语】主要介绍一项新研究探究心理与基因机制，解释逆境让人强弱有别的原因，并有望实现心理疾病个性化治疗。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“A new research project is now investigating the cognitive and genetic mechanisms that cause some people to flourish and others to struggle.(一项新的研究项目正在探究认知和遗传机制，解释为何有人面对困境能成长、有人却陷入挣扎。)”可知，这项新研究聚焦人面对挑战时的反应机制。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中的“Previous research clearly tells us that certain sets of genes may lead people to develop anxiety or depression when they experience negative life events. But the new research finds that, in certain situations, those genes can also be a real benefit to people when they’re in supportive environments. (以往的研究明确表明，当人们遭遇生活中的负面事件时，某些基因组合可能会使人患上焦虑症或抑郁症。但这项新研究发现，在特定环境下，身处充满关怀支持的氛围中时，这些基因也能给人带来实实在在的益处。)”可知，研究人员通过对比不同环境下基因的不同影响，得出关于 “风险基因” 这一结论。 【7题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“All of our brains are naturally tuned into negativity for evolutionary reasons — it’s more important to spot a predator (捕食者) than food-but this is especially true for anxious or depressed people. (出于进化层面的原因，所有人的大脑天生就会对负面情绪更为敏感——发现捕食者远比寻找食物更为重要，而这一点在焦虑或抑郁人群身上体现得尤为明显。)”可知，对负面信息敏感源于与生俱来的生存本能模式。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段中的“One of the exciting things is the possibility of developing much more personalized treatment options for psychological disorders.(这项研究有望为心理疾病研发更具个性化的治疗方案。)”可知，有心理健康问题的人群将从该研究中获益更多。 C Nearly half of all known animals are parasites (寄生虫). One study suggests that a tenth of them might disappear forever because of climate change, loss of their hosts, and deliberate attempts to kill them all. Though it seems few people care — or even notice. Actually, if you don’t think about how “disgusting” they might look, you may find parasites’ way of living strangely charming. They’ve evolved smart means of survival from becoming a fish’s tongue to controlling the minds of ants. While the death of parasites might seem like no big deal, the potential consequences of parasite extinction extend far beyond what most people realize. Ecologists caution that wiping them out could end up destroying the planet. Medically, certain species are still employed for surgeries. Ecologically, parasites help control animal populations by keeping some species from growing too large. They also help feed predators (捕食者) in an interesting way. Many parasites have learned to change their host’s behavior, making infected animals more likely to be caught and eaten by predators. When this happens, the parasite moves to its next host, and the predator gets food. Even human health wouldn’t necessarily benefit from wiping out parasites. The human immune system evolved alongside a group of parasites, and if we were to kill them off, our immune systems would then begin attacking ourselves. If anyone would want to get rid of all parasites, you’d think it would be Bobbi Pritt. As medical director for the Mayo Clinic’s human parasitology lab, Pritt identifies harmful parasites found all over the country and in every body part. Yet even Pritt has a soft spot for parasites. As a physician, she favors wiping out parasites that cause disease and suffering. “But as a biologist,” she says, “purposefully trying to make something extinct just doesn’t feel right to me.” Ultimately, we do not want a war against all of them, because there’s still so much we don’t understand. 9. What may people find “charming” about parasites? A. Their strange actions. B. Their clever adaptations. C. Their attractive appearances. D. Their harmless characteristics. 10. What ecological role do parasites play? A. Balancing host numbers. B. Limiting predators’ growth. C. Boosting immune system. D. Protecting infected animals. 11. Why is Bobbi Pritt mentioned in Paragraph 5? A. To raise ethical concerns. B. To show scientific progress. C. To reveal institutional conflicts. D. To emphasize clinical responsibilities. 12. Which of the following can be a suitable title for the text? A. The War Against Parasites. B. What If We Spare All Parasites? C. How Parasites Evolved Wisely? D. Removing Parasites? Think Twice. 【答案】9. B 10. A 11. A 12. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，尽管寄生虫常被认为令人厌恶，但实际上它们有着独特生存方式，且在生态系统和人类健康方面都起着重要作用。文章指出消灭寄生虫可能带来严重后果，人们不应盲目地与所有寄生虫为敌，对于消灭寄生虫应慎重考虑。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“Actually, if you don’t think about how “disgusting” they might look, you may find parasites’ way of living strangely charming. They’ve evolved smart means of survival from becoming a fish’s tongue to controlling the minds of ants.(实际上，如果你不考虑它们看起来有多“恶心”，你可能会发现寄生虫的生存方式有一种奇特的魅力。它们进化出了巧妙的生存方式，从变成鱼的舌头到控制蚂蚁的思维)” 可知，人们可能会发现寄生虫巧妙的适应性很有魅力。故选B。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“Ecologically, parasites help control animal populations by keeping some species from growing too large.(从生态角度来看，寄生虫通过防止某些物种数量增长过快，来帮助控制动物种群数量)” 可知，寄生虫在生态方面的作用是平衡宿主数量。故选A。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据第五段“As a physician, she favors wiping out parasites that cause disease and suffering. “But as a biologist,” she says, “purposefully trying to make something extinct just doesn’t feel right to me.”(作为一名医生，她赞成消灭那些导致疾病和痛苦的寄生虫。但作为一名生物学家，她说，“故意试图让某种生物灭绝，这让我感觉不太对”)” 可知，提到Bobbi Pritt是为了引发关于消灭寄生虫的伦理思考。故选A。 【12题详解】 主旨大意题。尽管寄生虫常被认为令人厌恶，但实际上它们有着独特生存方式，且在生态系统和人类健康方面都起着重要作用。文章指出消灭寄生虫可能带来严重后果，人们不应盲目地与所有寄生虫为敌，对于消灭寄生虫应慎重考虑。选项 D“消灭寄生虫？三思而后行” 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可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Trees play a crucial role in urban areas by providing shade and helping to purify the air. ____13____ Therefore, we can say a city with trees is a much more livable place. Many cities do not have enough greenery and the trees that are there are competing for space with underground utilities (公用事业) and paved streets. ____14____ That’s because construction projects require dense compaction (压缩) of the soil, which does not give tree roots a chance to grow. However, an Israeli start-up based in Ramat Gan is aiming to change this with a system that allows trees to grow in urban areas. TreeTube, founded in 2019, has developed a unique patented system that supports tree growth. This takes into account the needs of utility companies as well as trees. “You need to have a space for electricity, gas, water, and so on,” TreeTube co-founder Jonathan Antebi said. “____15____” Urban trees often damage the man-made environment to give their roots room to grow. As a result, more than 30 percent of trees in cities will stop growing within three to five years, and many die within ten years. ____16____ This TreeTube system allows trees to grow with their roots firmly underground. The tubes can be placed in any place where the pavement has been removed for repairs or upgrades. ____17____ More than 1,000 new trees have been planted and are growing thanks to TreeTube. The tubes have been used in Israel, the Netherlands, and Estonia. TreeTube can play a large role in helping to fight global warming, one tree at a time. A. Sadly, the trees are disappearing. B. There also needs to be a place for trees. C. Planting more trees can slow down global warming. D. Some cities don’t need to build underground utilities. E. That’s why the start-up developed a root structure system. F. Once the tubes are in place, it’s easy and efficient to plant trees. G. In fact, trees can help cool a city and reduce the need for air-conditioning. 【答案】13. G 14. A 15. B 16. E 17. F 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍城市中树木的重要作用、现存问题及以色列初创公司TreeTube研发的树木根系生长系统。 【13题详解】 上文提到“Trees play a crucial role in urban areas by providing shade and helping to purify the air. (树木在城市地区发挥着重要作用，它们提供荫凉，有助于净化空气。)”可知，此处列举树木的已知功能，结合下文“Therefore ,was can say a city with trees is a much more livable place. (所以我们可以说有树的城市更适合居住。)”可知，空处与下文为因果关系，由此可知，空处应该承接上文继续说明在城市种树的好处，G选项“In fact, trees can help cool a city and reduce the need for air-conditioning.(事实上，树木可以帮助城市降温并减少对空调的需求。)”中的“cool a city”对应“providing shade”，“reduce air-conditioning”延伸了节能效益，与上文共同论证“城市有树更宜居”的结论。故选G项。 【14题详解】 根据上文的“Many cities do not have enough greenery and the trees that are there are competing for space with underground utilities (公用事业) and paved streets. (许多城市缺乏足够绿化，现有树木与地下公用设施和铺装街道争夺空间。)”可知，描述城市树木生存困境，结合下文“That’s because construction projects require dense compaction (压缩) of the soil, which does not give tree roots a chance to grow. (这是因为建筑项目需要紧密压实土壤，这样就不会给树根生长的机会。)”可知，空处与后一句存在因果关系，后一句表示原因，空处为不会给树根生长的机会造成的结果，树根不生长，那树木就会死去、消失，A选项“Sadly, the trees are disappearing.(可悲的是，树木正在消失。)”中的“disappearing”概括了“缺乏空间” 导致的结果，“Sadly”强化了负面趋势，引出下文对原因的分析。故选A项。 【15题详解】 根据上文““You need to have a space for electricity, gas, water, and so on,” TreeTube co-founder Jonathan Antebi said. (TreeTube联合创始人乔纳森・安特比说：“你需要为电力、燃气、水等设施留出空间。”)”可知，强调公用设施的空间需求，空格处需转折引出树木的空间需求，B选项“There also needs to be a place for trees.(也需要为树木留出空间。)” 中的“also”承接“utility space”，“a place for trees”呼应段落核心“树木与公用设施争夺空间”的矛盾，体现TreeTube系统平衡两者需求的设计初衷。故选B项。 【16题详解】 根据上文的“Urban trees often damage the man-made environment to give their roots room to grow. As a result, more than 30 percent of trees in cities will stop growing within three to five years, and many die within ten years. (城市树木常常为了给根系生长腾出空间而破坏人造环境。因此，超过30%的城市树木会在三到五年内停止生长，许多树木则会在十年内死亡。)”可知，说明现有问题的严重性，结合下文“This TreeTube system allows trees to grow with their roots firmly underground.(这种TreeTube系统允许树木根系在地下稳固生长。)”可知，空格处需引出解决方案的必要性。E选项 “That’s why the start-up developed a root structure system.(这就是该初创公司开发根系结构系统的原因。)”中的“That’s why”总结上文问题，“root structure system”直接指向TreeTube系统，衔接问题与解决方案。故选E项。 【17题详解】 此处为本段的主题句，根据下文的“More than 1,000 new trees have been planted and are growing thanks to TreeTube. The tubes have been used in Israel, the Netherlands, and Estonia. TreeTube can play a large role in helping to fight global warming, one tree at a time. (多亏了TreeTube系统，目前已有1000多棵新树被种植并茁壮成长。这种保护管已在以色列、荷兰和爱沙尼亚投入使用。TreeTube能够通过一棵又一棵树的力量，在应对全球变暖方面发挥重要作用。)”可知，描述TreeTube系统的应用效果和便利性。F选项“Once the tubes are in place, it’s easy and efficient to plant trees.(一旦管道安装到位，植树就变得简单高效。)”讲述的内容对本段内容进行总结，与下文内容吻合。故选F项。 第三部分 语言运用（共三节，满分37.5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。 When I was 14, I met Mrs. Korthaus, a warm English teacher, who gave me the best ____18____ in my life.

They were incredibly excited because they would attend the dream wedding of her daughter Iris the next day. As they drove beyond a town heat their destination, the sky grew darker and darker and suddenly the rain poured down. When they were approaching a bridge，a wave of fast- moving water washed over the top of it. Within seconds, the rapids had lifted the little white car into the river. It happened so quickly that they were too shocked to scream. Finally, the car caught an object in the middle of the river. Muddy flood water was pouring into the car and rising quickly. Jane knew they had to get out quickly before the water rose too high in the car. Forcing the door open, Charlie jumped into the flood from the back row. Meanwhile, Jane grabbed the front door handle and tried to open it but in vain."Try it again!" her husband shouted anxiously. Hearing that, Jane took hold of the handle, using all her strength, and was able to pull the door open. She came out of the vehicle and finally reached Charlie, coughing and shaking. They leaned tightly against the back of the Car and screamed for help. At the same time a truck driver called Joe was complaining about the bad weather in his truck parked in his yard near the river.He had planned a road trip.Suddenly, carrying over the roar of the water, he heard screams coming from the river and rushed out immediately，spotting a car in the river."I've got to do something,”he told himself.But how did he approach the car in such a complete darkness? Without thinking twice, Joe returned to his truck and drove to the river bank.Then he turned on the headlights and got a long rope from it.After that, he fastened the one end of the rope to the truck tight. 注意: 1.续写词数应为150左右; 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 The water was still rising. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Joe finally reached the couple. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】范文 The water was still rising. By this time, the swelling water had reached the chest of Charlie and Jane, who shivered uncontrollably and could not tell whether they trembled because of cold or fright. Fortunately, they spotted the flashing headlights of Joe's truck and caught a glimpse of his stout figure shape approaching them with a long rope. A strong torrent, coupled with the showering rain, washed over Joe and nearly swallowed him. However, this determined man rose to the flood and forged ahead, painfully and laboriously. Joe finally reached the couple. 'Catching the rope.' he yelled at the top of his lungs. Having received Joe's message, Charlie and Jane twisted their figures and clutched the rope tightly. Together, three of them swam against the torrent along the rope and finally made it to the bank. As Joe hauled the couple from the flood, the breathless Jane was too moved to utter a single word. Only Charlie held Joe's hands tightly and sputtered with a choking tone, "Thank... you..., you... kind stranger, without... your help, Jane and I would have been... drowned to death." Joe shrugged off and said anyone at his place would have done the same thing. Indeed, what a narrow escape they had and what a good Samaritan Joe is! 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了简和丈夫查理怀着激动的心情去参加女儿的婚礼。不料，当他们驶过目的地的城镇时，突然大雨倾盆。不到几秒钟，急流就把他们的车抬进了河里。正在这时卡车司机乔听到从河里传来的尖叫声。最终，乔凭借自己的英勇和智慧救出这对夫妇的故事。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“水还在上涨。”可知，第一段可继续描写简和查理在水中挣扎自救。不过幸运的是，他们发现了乔的卡车闪烁的前灯，瞥见了乔正用一根长绳子向他们走来。 ②由第二段首句内容“乔终于到了这对夫妇身边。”可知，第二段可描写三人成功脱险以及这对夫妇九死一生的喜悦和对乔的感激。 2.续写线索：水涨——挣扎——看见绳子——抓住绳子——游到岸边——激动和感激 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①看见：catch a glimpse of/ catch sight of ②颤抖：tremble/shiver ③大叫：yell/cry/shout 情绪类 ①.害怕：trembled because of fright / be frightened /be scared to death ②.感动：too moved to utter a single word /touched deeply 【点睛】 [高分句型1].

As summer temperatures rise, so does the night-time economy. Data show that the time after working hours is the “golden time” for consumption in urban areas. For example, the sales of large shopping malls from 6 pm to 10 pm account for more than half of the day’s total sales. Major cities in China and abroad have introduced many measures to promote the night-time economy. For instance, Beijing and Shanghai have issued several policies, and cities such as Hangzhou and Nanjing have introduced various activities to boost night-time consumption. Now that the consumer market is firmly on the recovery path in China, the night-time economy can meet people’s social and recreational needs and increase domestic demand. As the situation normalizes in China, the night-time economy can help increase market supply, promote the integrated development of business, travel, culture, sports and other service industries. The night-time economy fits well with the post-industrial urbanization trend and enhances a city’s charm while facilitating the flow of goods, capital and information. To ensure the sustainable development of the night-time economy, the government and enterprises have to make joint efforts to optimize the consumption environment and use innovative means to increase consumption. First, to meet the diversified consumption needs, services such as catering and shopping should go along with night life. Second, night-time economy brands should be developed by learning from the experience of cities around the world. Third, the authority could consider extending the opening hours of museums, libraries and concert halls to draw more visitors for the development of the night-time economy. And fourth, it is important that consumers exhibit civilized behavior, and the authority promotes a simple, moderate, green and low-carbon lifestyle in order to ensure the sustainable development of the night-time economy. 1. Which is one of the reasons for the rise of the night-time economy? A. Working hours are extended. B. People need to relieve stress. C. Government policies favor it. D. Summer offers more recreational options. 2. What is Paragraph 3 mainly about? A. Positive impacts of the night-time economy. B. Opportunities brought by the night-time economy. C. Views on the rapid growth of the night-time economy. D. Reasons for the development of the night-time economy. 3. What does “optimize” most likely mean in paragraph 4? A. Maintain. B. Purify. C. Simplify. D. Enhance. 4. How should the government sustain the night-time economy? A. Promote our night-time business globally. B. Lower museum ticket prices at night. C. Consider people’s nightlife needs. D. Ensure sellers operate in a low-carbon manner. B Why do life’s challenges make some people stronger and others weaker? The answer may lie in how our minds and genes interact. A new research project is now investigating the cognitive and genetic mechanisms that cause some people to flourish and others to struggle. Until now, research into cognitive biases and genetics has been entirely separate, so bringing them together in this research is really exciting. Previous research clearly tells us that certain sets of genes may lead people to develop anxiety or depression when they experience negative life events. But the new research finds that, in certain situations, those genes can also be a real benefit to people when they’re in supportive environments. If a child with so-called risky genes is in a good school and has much support, he or she can really flourish. We’re beginning to realize that we shouldn’t call them risky genes, but sensitivity genes. This means that some people at risk of mental health problems could, in the right conditions, be really happy. The other side of the research looks at cognitive biases. People always say: “Why is the media full of negative news stories?” This negativity can result in a society where people feel very anxious all the time. All of our brains are naturally tuned into negativity for evolutionary reasons - it’s more important to spot a predator (捕食者) than food-but this is especially true for anxious or depressed people. They are even more sensitive to the effects of negative information, making it more likely that they will adopt a pessimistic habit of mind. Crucially, these same people who are more affected by negativity are also more likely to be responsive to positive situations and, potentially, to psychological interventions. Right now, the researchers are on a five-year project and only halfway through. One of the exciting things is the possibility of developing much more personalized treatment options for psychological disorders. Once we know this, we will be in a better position to tailor treatments for individuals, rather than applying the one-size-fits-all approach used now. 5. What’s the focus of the new research? A. Attitudes to different life choices. B. The influence of negative experiences. C. Responsive mechanisms to challenges. D. The relationship between environment and genes. 6. How do the researchers arrive at the realization about “risky genes”? A. By clarifying an assumption. B. By comparing different situations. C. By adjusting research procedures. D. By analyzing effects of different genes. 7. What makes people sensitive to negativity according to paragraph 3? A. Pressure from modern life. B. Built-in survival mode. C. Exposure to negative reports. D. Drive for food resources. 8. Who might benefit more from the research? A. People with genetic disorders. B. People having high-risk lifestyles. C. People with mental health condition. D. People unwilling to accept challenges. C Nearly half of all known animals are parasites (寄生虫). One study suggests that a tenth of them might disappear forever because of climate change, loss of their hosts, and deliberate attempts to kill them all. Though it seems few people care — or even notice. Actually, if you don’t think about how “disgusting” they might look, you may find parasites’ way of living strangely charming. They’ve evolved smart means of survival from becoming a fish’s tongue to controlling the minds of ants. While the death of parasites might seem like no big deal, the potential consequences of parasite extinction extend far beyond what most people realize. Ecologists caution that wiping them out could end up destroying the planet. Medically, certain species are still employed for surgeries. Ecologically, parasites help control animal populations by keeping some species from growing too large. They also help feed predators (捕食者) in an interesting way. Many parasites have learned to change their host’s behavior, making infected animals more likely to be caught and eaten by predators. When this happens, the parasite moves to its next host, and the predator gets food. Even human health wouldn’t necessarily benefit from wiping out parasites. The human immune system evolved alongside a group of parasites, and if we were to kill them off, our immune systems would then begin attacking ourselves. If anyone would want to get rid of all parasites, you’d think it would be Bobbi Pritt. As medical director for the Mayo Clinic’s human parasitology lab, Pritt identifies harmful parasites found all over the country and in every body part. Yet even Pritt has a soft spot for parasites. As a physician, she favors wiping out parasites that cause disease and suffering. “But as a biologist,” she says, “purposefully trying to make something extinct just doesn’t feel right to me.” Ultimately, we do not want a war against all of them, because there’s still so much we don’t understand. 9. What may people find “charming” about parasites? A. Their strange actions. B. Their clever adaptations. C. Their attractive appearances. D. Their harmless characteristics. 10. What ecological role do parasites play? A. Balancing host numbers. B. Limiting predators’ growth. C. Boosting immune system. D. Protecting infected animals. 11. Why is Bobbi Pritt mentioned in Paragraph 5? A. To raise ethical concerns. B. To show scientific progress. C. To reveal institutional conflicts. D. To emphasize clinical responsibilities. 12. Which of the following can be a suitable title for the text? A. The War Against Parasites. B. What If We Spare All Parasites? C. How Parasites Evolved Wisely? D. Removing Parasites? Think Twice. 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可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Trees play a crucial role in urban areas by providing shade and helping to purify the air. ____13____ Therefore, we can say a city with trees is a much more livable place. Many cities do not have enough greenery and the trees that are there are competing for space with underground utilities (公用事业) and paved streets. ____14____ That’s because construction projects require dense compaction (压缩) of the soil, which does not give tree roots a chance to grow. However, an Israeli start-up based in Ramat Gan is aiming to change this with a system that allows trees to grow in urban areas. TreeTube, founded in 2019, has developed a unique patented system that supports tree growth. This takes into account the needs of utility companies as well as trees. “You need to have a space for electricity, gas, water, and so on,” TreeTube co-founder Jonathan Antebi said. “____15____” Urban trees often damage the man-made environment to give their roots room to grow. As a result, more than 30 percent of trees in cities will stop growing within three to five years, and many die within ten years. ____16____ This TreeTube system allows trees to grow with their roots firmly underground. The tubes can be placed in any place where the pavement has been removed for repairs or upgrades. ____17____ More than 1,000 new trees have been planted and are growing thanks to TreeTube. The tubes have been used in Israel, the Netherlands, and Estonia. TreeTube can play a large role in helping to fight global warming, one tree at a time. A. Sadly, the trees are disappearing. B. There also needs to be a place for trees. C. Planting more trees can slow down global warming. D. Some cities don’t need to build underground utilities. E. That’s why the start-up developed a root structure system. F. Once the tubes are in place, it’s easy and efficient to plant trees. G. In fact, trees can help cool a city and reduce the need for air-conditioning. 第三部分 语言运用（共三节，满分37.5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。 When I was 14, I met Mrs. Korthaus, a warm English teacher, who gave me the best ____18____ in my life.

They were incredibly excited because they would attend the dream wedding of her daughter Iris the next day. As they drove beyond a town heat their destination, the sky grew darker and darker and suddenly the rain poured down. When they were approaching a bridge，a wave of fast- moving water washed over the top of it. Within seconds, the rapids had lifted the little white car into the river. It happened so quickly that they were too shocked to scream. Finally, the car caught an object in the middle of the river. Muddy flood water was pouring into the car and rising quickly. Jane knew they had to get out quickly before the water rose too high in the car. Forcing the door open, Charlie jumped into the flood from the back row. Meanwhile, Jane grabbed the front door handle and tried to open it but in vain."Try it again!" her husband shouted anxiously. Hearing that, Jane took hold of the handle, using all her strength, and was able to pull the door open. She came out of the vehicle and finally reached Charlie, coughing and shaking. They leaned tightly against the back of the Car and screamed for help. At the same time a truck driver called Joe was complaining about the bad weather in his truck parked in his yard near the river.He had planned a road trip.Suddenly, carrying over the roar of the water, he heard screams coming from the river and rushed out immediately，spotting a car in the river."I've got to do something,”he told himself.But how did he approach the car in such a complete darkness? Without thinking twice, Joe returned to his truck and drove to the river bank.Then he turned on the headlights and got a long rope from it.After that, he fastened the one end of the rope to the truck tight. 注意: 1.续写词数应为150左右; 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 The water was still rising. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Joe finally reached the couple. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
