The good news is, you’re in the right place. Below is a highly selective list of museums in New York City. Metropolitan Museum of Art Occupying two million square feet, with a permanent collection of over two million works of art, the Metropolitan Museum of Art (founded in 1870) is one the largest galleries in the world. This famous fine arts museum in NYC possesses works from classical antiquity (古物), ancient Egypt, Asia, Byzantium, and Europe, with nearly all of the European masters represented. American Museum of Natural History Originally founded in 1869, the American Museum of Natural History is one of the largest museums in the world. Located in park-like grounds across the street from Central Park, the museum complex consists of 28 interconnected buildings housing 45 permanent exhibition halls. As a popular family-friendly NYC attraction, the American Museum of Natural History is as fun as it is educational. Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum One of the mid-twentieth century’s most important architectural landmarks, the iconic Solomon R. Museum was designed by Frank Lloyd Wright. Wright spent 15 years designing the building and gave up 700 sketches and six sets of working drawings in the process. He died six months before the doors were opened. New York City Fire Museum The New York City Fire Museum (set up in 1934) is a charming alternative to the more expensive museums of New York. Here you will find art and artifacts that celebrate the history of firefighting and the New York City Fire Department; including modern-day firefighting equipment and real New York fire equipment from 1790. 1. What do you know about the American Museum of Natural History? A. It consists of 28 exhibition halls. B. It is fit for parents and their kids. C. It lies in the middle of Central Park. D. It is the smallest museum in the world. 2. Which is the youngest museum? A. The New York City Fire Museum. B. The Metropolitan Museum of Art. C. The Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum. D. The American Museum of Natural History. 3. Where can you probably find this passage? A. In a guidebook. B. In an art review. C. In an official report. D. In a traveling schedule. 【答案】1. B 2. C 3. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇应用文。文章主要介绍了纽约城市里四个各具特点的博物馆。 【1题详解】 细节理解题。根据American Museum of Natural History中“As a popular family-friendly NYC attraction, the American Museum of Natural History is as fun as it is educational. (作为纽约市一个受欢迎的家庭友好景点，美国自然历史博物馆既有趣又有教育意义)”可知，美国自然历史博物馆是家庭友好景点，因此适合父母和他们的孩子。故选B项。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。根据Metropolitan Museum of Art中“founded in 1870 (建于1870年)”、American Museum of Natural History中“Originally founded in 1869 (始建于1869年)”、Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum中“One of the mid-twentieth century’s most important architectural landmarks (二十世纪中期最重要的建筑地标之一)”和New York City Fire Museum中“set up in 1934 (建于1934年)”可知，四所博物馆中，古根海姆博物馆是二十世纪中期建筑，是最年轻的博物馆。故选C项。 【3题详解】 推理判断题。通读全文，尤其是第一段中“Below is a highly selective list of museums in New York City. (以下是精心挑选的纽约市博物馆列表)”可知，文章为读者介绍了纽约城市里四个各具特点的博物馆，分享了各博物馆大致的信息。由此推知，这篇文章应该出自旅游指南。故选A项。 B During the Spring Festival, “Ne Zha 2” became a really popular animated movie. The cinema attendance rate was over 90%. When Ne Zha and Ao Bing fought hard against Infinite Immortal, the cool sound effects made me feel like I was right there in the movie. Suddenly, I thought of a question: How did they make these great sounds? Because I was curious, I went home and started looking for answers. Then I learned about the interesting world of Foley artists. The name “Foley” comes from Jack Foley. He did a lot for the art of sound effects. When sound effects were first added to movies, he came up with a new way to make them. He recorded sounds on one track and added them to the actions in the movie. Foley artists are like sound magicians. They make movies more lively. Their workplaces look simple, but there are lots of tools. They can use normal things to make great sound effects. For example, shaking an umbrella can sound like a strong storm. Hitting two parts of a coconut can sound like a horse walking. Even though Foley artists work behind the scenes, working with actors is very important. Jack Foley said, “You have to act out the scene. You have to be like the actors and understand the story just like they do on the set. It makes a big difference.” In general, paying attention to small things is very important for Foley artists. They also need to be able to make sounds by themselves. This needs creativity and imagination. Getting the perfect sound takes a lot of tries. So, being patient is also important. To make the sound of a character running in the mud, Foley artists have to try many different things and keep changing how they step. When I learned more, I was sad to find out that there are only about 100 Foley artists working around the world. Foley work is great for movies, but there are so few artists now. Maybe it will become a dying art. But I’m glad that with virtual reality getting better, Foley work might change. Next time you watch a movie, listen carefully to the little sounds. They are like secret messages from Foley artists, telling us they are there. 4. Why did the author start to learn about Foley artists? A. Because “Ne Zha 2” was very popular. B. Because the sound effects in “Ne Zha 2” were cool. C. Because the author wanted to become a Foley artist. D. Because the author was curious about how movie sound effects were made. 5. What did Jack Foley do for the movie industry? A. He found a new way to create sound effects for movies. B. He invented new tools for Foley artists. C. He trained many famous Foley artists. D. He made the first animated movie. 6. What is very important for Foley artists according to the passage? A. Being able to act in movies. B. Paying attention to small details. C. Working alone without others’ help. D. Having a lot of money to buy tools. 7. What can we infer from the last paragraph? A. Foley work will disappear soon. B. There will be more Foley artists in the future. C. Virtual reality will replace Foley artists completely. D. Foley work may develop in a new way with virtual reality. 【答案】4. D 5. A 6. B 7. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。主要介绍作者因好奇《哪吒 2》音效制作，进而了解拟音师工作的相关内容。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“Suddenly, I thought of a question: How did they make these great sounds? Because I was curious, I went home and started looking for answers. Then I learned about the interesting world of Foley artists.(突然，我想到一个问题：他们是如何制作出这些很棒的音效的？因为好奇，我回家开始寻找答案。然后我了解到了拟音师这个有趣的世界。)”可知，作者开始了解拟音师是因为对电影音效是如何制作的感到好奇。故选D项。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“When sound effects were first added to movies, he came up with a new way to make them. He recorded sounds on one track and added them to the actions in the movie.(当音效首次被添加到电影中时，他想出了一种制作音效的新方法。他在一个音轨上录制声音，然后将其添加到电影中的动作场景中)”可知，Jack Foley为电影行业找到了一种为电影制作音效的新方法。故选A项。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中的“In general, paying attention to small things is very important for Foley artists. They also need to be able to make sounds by themselves. This needs creativity and imagination. Getting the perfect sound takes a lot of tries. So, being patient is also important.(一般来说，关注细节对拟音师来说非常重要。他们还需要能够自己制作声音。这需要创造力和想象力。要获得完美的声音需要多次尝试。所以，耐心也很重要)”可知，关注小细节对拟音师来说非常重要。故选B项。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“But I’m glad that with virtual reality getting better, Foley work might change. Next time you watch a movie, listen carefully to the little sounds. They are like secret messages from Foley artists, telling us they are there. (但我很高兴随着虚拟现实技术的进步，拟音工作可能会发生变化。下次你看电影时，仔细听那些细微的声音。它们就像来自拟音艺术家的秘密信息，告诉我们他们就在那里)”可知，随着虚拟现实技术的发展，拟音工作不可能会消失，由此可推断，拟音工作可能会借助虚拟现实技术以新的方式发展。故选D项。 C It’s easy for consumers to buy food and drinks like a bowl of hot rice and coke online or from neighbourhood shops, but for astronauts such things were impossible in the past. Members of China’s Shenzhou manned space flight last year, however, were able to enjoy such food, thanks to Joyoung, a Chinese firm. Joyoung created a mobile space kitchen for the astronauts. A drinking water machine, an air heater and a soybean milk maker were all accessible in the kitchen through a smart app. Tang Hongbo, who was a member of the Shenzhou manned spacecraft said in the news that during his three-month trip, he could eat hot food with just half-hour efforts, a contrast to the past when similar attempts required several hours. “If we had time, we would also use equipment to eat homemade yogurt. We could also control the equipment in the space kitchen through mobile phone apps.” he said. In the past, most foods couldn’t be directly heated in a microwave oven in the space. Conduction equipment often caused uneven (不均匀的) heating. An astronaut had to spend as long as four hours to heat some vegetables in the space kitchen. To solve the problem, Joyoung has developed equipment that gives out hot air to heat vegetables in a 360-degree way. That enables astronauts to eat steaming-hot fish-flavoured pork and Gongbao chicken, a spicy, stir-fried Chinese dish. Besides Joyoung, a group of companies, including Xiaomi Coip and Huawei Technologies, have contributed their technologies to the development of the space station. A vacuum (真空) cleaner made haircuts on the spacecraft possible. NOLO VR, a Chinese virtual reality manufacturer, has helped astronauts develop an experimental equipment through which laboratory technicians on the ground can see and experience what astronauts are doing in space. 8. What do astronauts think of Joyoung’s mobile space kitchen? A. Water-saving. B. Energy-wasting. C. Time-saving. D. Money-wasting. 9. How does the author show the convenience on Shenzhou manned spacecraft? A. By making contrasts. B. By analyzing results. C. By providing pictures. D. By answering questions. 10. What does the last paragraph want to show? A. Jayoung needs to further its technology. B. What astronauts are doing is significant. C. Astronauts on board can do as they wish. D. There are more technologies for the spacecraft. 11. What is the best title of the text? A. The Hot Diet on the Space Station Needs to be Addressed B. Earth to Space, Firms Add Value by Creating Technology C. Modern Technology Brings Convenience to Human Beings D. Manufacturers Make Big Profits from Inventing Equipment 【答案】8. C 9. A 10. D 11. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文，文章主要讲述九阳公司为宇航员们设计了一个移动太空厨房，让宇航员更加方便、快捷地享用食物。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中“Tang Hongbo, who was a member of the Shenzhou manned spacecraft said in the news that during his three-month trip, he could eat hot food with just half-hour efforts, a contrast to the past when similar attempts required several hours.(神舟载人飞船成员汤洪波在新闻中说，在他三个月的旅行中，他只需要半个小时就能吃到热食物，而过去类似的尝试需要几个小时)”可知，宇航员认为九阳的移动太空厨房能节省时间，故选C。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中“Tang Hongbo, who was a member of the Shenzhou manned spacecraft said in the news that during his three-month trip, he could eat hot food with just half-hour efforts, a contrast to the past when similar attempts required several hours.(神舟载人飞船成员汤洪波在新闻中说，在他三个月的旅行中，他只需要半个小时就能吃到热食物，而过去类似的尝试需要几个小时)”和第三段“In the past, most foods couldn’t be directly heated in a microwave oven in the space. Conduction equipment often caused uneven(不均匀的) heating. An astronaut had to spend as long as four hours to heat some vegetables in the space kitchen. To solve the problem, Joyoung has developed equipment that gives out hot air to heat vegetables in a 360-degree way. That enables astronauts to eat steaming-hot fish-flavoured pork and Gongbao chicken, a spicy, stir-fried Chinese dish.(在过去，大多数食物不能在太空中的微波炉中直接加热。传导设备常引起不均匀加热。一名宇航员必须在太空厨房里花费长达四个小时的时间来加热一些蔬菜。为了解决这个问题，九阳公司开发了一种可以360度加热蔬菜的设备。这样宇航员就可以吃到热气腾腾的鱼香肉丝和宫保鸡丁，这是一种辛辣的中国菜)”可知，在过去，大多数食物不能在太空中的微波炉中直接加热，加热一些蔬菜需要很长时间，但有了九阳开发的设备，宇航员能够吃到热气腾腾的饭菜；由此可知，作者是通过将过去和现在的情况作比较，来展现神舟载人飞船上先进设备带来的便捷。故选A。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Besides Joyoung, a group of companies, including Xiaomi Coip and Huawei Technologies, have contributed their technologies to the development of the space station. A vacuum (真空) cleaner made haircuts on the spacecraft possible. NOLO VR, a Chinese virtual reality manufacturer, has helped astronauts develop an experimental equipment through which laboratory technicians on the ground can see and experience what astronauts are doing in space.(除了九阳，包括小米和华为技术在内的一些公司也为空间站的发展贡献了自己的技术。真空吸尘器使航天器上的理发成为可能。中国虚拟现实制造商NOLO VR帮助宇航员开发了一种实验设备，通过这种设备，地面上的实验室技术人员可以看到并体验宇航员在太空中的活动)”可知，最后一段告诉我们，除了九阳，还有很多其他公司也为空间站的开发贡献了他们的技术；由此推知，最后一段表明有更多的技术应用于宇宙飞船。故选D。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。根据全文内容，结合第二段中“Members of China’s Shenzhou manned space flight last year, however, were able to enjoy such food, thanks to Joyoung, a Chinese firm.(然而，多亏了中国的九阳公司，去年中国神舟载人航天飞行的成员们能够享用到这样的食物)”和最后一段中“Besides Joyoung, a group of companies, including Xiaomi Coip and Huawei Technologies, have contributed their technologies to the development of the space station.(除了九阳，包括小米和华为技术在内的一些公司也为空间站的发展贡献了自己的技术)”可知，文章主要讲述九阳公司为宇航员们设计了一个移动太空厨房，让宇航员更加方便、快捷地享用食物，除此之外，包括小米和华为技术在内的一些公司也为空间站的发展贡献了自己的技术。B项“从地球到太空，企业通过创造技术来增加价值”能够概括文章主旨，为最佳标题，故选B。 D Life is busy. We’re always expected to be productive and engaged, whether that’s with parenting, housework, or work. While taking time for small rewards can feel like a luxury (奢侈), the truth is that it is necessary for improving our mental health. A key psychological idea behind this is the Premack Principle, which explains why treating ourselves is more than a tendency; it’s a way to improve our daily lives. In the 1960s, American psychologist David Premack developed a theory now known as Premack Principle. He explained that doing something you’re more likely to do can be a reward for doing something you don’t actually want to do. For instance, if you finish a task you’re not interested in, like cleaning the bathroom, you can treat yourself to something you like, such as watching an episode of your favorite TV show. This approach takes advantage of our natural need for fun to help us get through tasks we might not enjoy. Recent studies keep showing that giving yourself rewards can help improve your work and happiness. For example, Woolley and Fishbach discovered that getting rewards right away can make you more motivated because it links the reward directly with the task. What’s interesting is that it’s not about how big the reward is but how quickly you get it that matters. Another study by Landry and others found it’s not the reward itself but rather how the reward makes people feel that helps them do their best. This makes sense because rewards boost our dopamine (多巴胺) levels, which plays a key role in how our brains feel pleasure. The idea of giving ourselves “little treats” is not just about enjoying something; it’s proof of how positive reinforcement can change our behavior and make us feel better mentally. By carefully using the Premack Principle and rewarding ourselves, we can find more motivation (动机) to face challenges and lead a happier life. It’s okay torecognize and celebrate our efforts, big or small. So, go ahead, give yourself that little treat. You’ve earned it. 12. What is the Premack Principle? A. A tool to work out a long-term plan. B. Away to complete tasks effectively. C. A means to make boring tasks enjoyable. D. A theory to explain how rewards improve happiness. 13. According to Woolley and Fishbach, what helps to improve motivation? A. The type of tasks. B. The immediate reward. C. The size of the reward. D. The level of dopamine. 14. What might be a “positive reinforcement” according to paragraph 4? A. A cleanup. B. Physical training. C. Graduation ceremony. D. A favourite snack. 15. What is the most suitable title for the text? A. The Importance of Productivity B. Motivation and Mental Health C. The Premack Principle for Life D. Dopamine and the Brain’s Pleasure 【答案】12. D 13. B 14. D 15. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要讲述了Premack Principle（普雷马克原理）的含义以及如何通过奖励自己来提高工作效率和幸福感。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段中“In the 1960s, American psychologist David Premack developed a theory now known as Premack Principle. He explained that doing something you’re more likely to do can be a reward for doing something you don’t actually want to do.”（在20世纪60年代，美国心理学家David Premack提出了一个理论，现在被称为Premack原理。他解释说，做你更愿意做的事情可以作为做你实际上不想做的事情的奖励。）以及文章第三段中“Recent studies keep showing that giving yourself rewards can help improve your work and happiness.”（最近的研究不断表明，给自己奖励可以帮助改善你的工作和幸福感。）可知，Premack Principle是一种解释如何通过奖励来提高幸福感的理论。故选D。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第三段中“Woolley and Fishbach discovered that getting rewards right away can make you more motivated because it links the reward directly with the task.”（Woolley和Fishbach发现，立即得到奖励可以使你更有动力，因为它直接将奖励与任务联系起来。）可知，立即得到的奖励有助于提高动力。故选B。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第四段中“The idea of giving ourselves “little treats” is not just about enjoying something; it’s proof of how positive reinforcement can change our behavior and make us feel better mentally.”（给自己‘小款待’的想法不仅仅是享受某件事，它证明了积极的强化如何改变我们的行为并使我们在精神上感觉更好。）可推知，positive reinforcement可能是指给自己的一种喜欢的小奖励，如一种喜欢的零食。故选D。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“Life is busy. We’re always expected to be productive and engaged, whether that’s with parenting, housework, or work. While taking time for small rewards can feel like a luxury (奢侈) , the truth is that it is necessary for improving our mental health. A key psychological idea behind this is the Premack Principle, which explains why treating ourselves is more than a tendency; it’s a way to improve our daily lives.”（生活是忙碌的。无论是养育孩子、做家务还是工作，我们总是被期望富有成效和投入。虽然花时间获得小奖励感觉像是一种奢侈，但事实是，这对改善我们的心理健康是必要的。这背后的一个关键心理学思想是普雷马克原则，它解释了为什么善待自己不仅仅是一种倾向;这是一种改善我们日常生活的方式。）以及下文内容可知，文章主要讲述了Premack Principle（普雷马克原理）的含义以及如何通过奖励自己来提高工作效率和幸福感，所以最适合的标题是“The Premack Principle for Life”（生活中的普雷马克原理）。故选C。 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Should We Create More National Parks to Save Endangered Animals? Don’t you find it worrying that more and more species of animals are in real danger of becoming extinct? ___16___ And I think the best way to do this is for governments to create more national parks. ___17___ If this environment is destroyed — for example, when farmers clear a forest for new fields, or trees are cut down to make profits — many animals are unable to survive, and more species are likely to become extinct. In addition, national parks protect animals from the danger of being hunted. A major reason why many species are endangered is that these animals are killed by hunters. They hunt animals to make money. ___18___ On the other hand, some people fight against the creation of national parks because they consider it is wrong to interfere with nature. They believe that wild animals are happier living in their natural environment. ___19___ They also point out that a few species are more likely to produce young animals in the wild than in national parks. All in all, these disadvantages are far less important than the benefits of national parks. ___20___ As a matter of fact, they protect animals from their greatest enemies, that is, human beings. A. To begin with, animals are important to humans. B. Some hunters even hunt animals simply for sport. C. I personally believe that we must save these animals. D. These parks allow animals to live in a safe environment. E. Firstly, national parks protect these animals’ natural environment. F. They say though the animals may face danger, they enjoy a free life. G. There is a heated discussion about whether to create more national parks. 【答案】16. C 17. E 18. B 19. F 20.

(越来越多的动物物种正处于灭绝的真正危险之中，难道你不感到担忧吗？)”为问句；下文“And I think the best way to do this is for governments to create more national parks. (我认为最好的办法是政府建立更多的国家公园)”由“And”表示顺承关系，且主语为“I”。C项“I personally believe that we must save these animals. (我个人认为我们必须拯救这些动物)”承上启下，即回答了上文的问题，同时亮明作者观点，下文是观点的进一步做法。故选C。 【17题详解】 下段首句“In addition, national parks protect animals from the danger of being hunted. (此外，国家公园保护动物免受猎杀的危险)”为国家公园的第二个优点。由此推知，空处应为国家公园的第一个优点，E项“Firstly, national parks protect these animals’ natural environment. (首先，国家公园保护这些动物的自然环境)”符合逻辑和语境。故选E。 【18题详解】 上文“A major reason why many species are endangered is that these animals are killed by hunters. They hunt animals to make money. (许多物种濒临灭绝的一个主要原因是这些动物被猎人杀死。他们打猎赚钱)”介绍物种灭绝的一个原因是猎人为了赚钱。B项“Some hunters even hunt animals simply for sport. (有些猎人甚至只是为了消遣而捕猎动物)”介绍猎人猎杀动物的又一原因，仅是为了消遣娱乐，承接上句。故选B。 【19题详解】 上文“They believe that wild animals are happier living in their natural environment. (他们认为野生动物生活在自然环境中更快乐)”表明观点。F项“They say though the animals may face danger, they enjoy a free life. (他们说，尽管这些动物可能面临危险，但它们享受着自由的生活)”顺承观点，符合语境，且主语一致。故选F。 【20题详解】 上文“All in all, these disadvantages are far less important than the benefits of national parks. (总而言之，这些缺点远不如国家公园的好处重要)”为总括句，再次论证作者的观点，支持通过国家公园来保护濒危动物；下文“As a matter of fact, they protect animals from their greatest enemies, that is, human beings. (事实上，他们保护动物免受他们最大的敌人——人类——的伤害)中“they”为代词指代。D项“These parks allow animals to live in a safe environment.”承接上文观点，且照应名词短语“national parks”，而且下文与本句为递进关系。故选D。 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四个选项中选出最佳选项。 As I have perfect pitch (绝对音感) and started playing piano at 3 years old, it’s much natural for me to join the school’s choir when I got to college in the US.

The good news is, you’re in the right place. Below is a highly selective list of museums in New York City. Metropolitan Museum of Art Occupying two million square feet, with a permanent collection of over two million works of art, the Metropolitan Museum of Art (founded in 1870) is one the largest galleries in the world. This famous fine arts museum in NYC possesses works from classical antiquity (古物), ancient Egypt, Asia, Byzantium, and Europe, with nearly all of the European masters represented. American Museum of Natural History Originally founded in 1869, the American Museum of Natural History is one of the largest museums in the world. Located in park-like grounds across the street from Central Park, the museum complex consists of 28 interconnected buildings housing 45 permanent exhibition halls. As a popular family-friendly NYC attraction, the American Museum of Natural History is as fun as it is educational. Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum One of the mid-twentieth century’s most important architectural landmarks, the iconic Solomon R. Museum was designed by Frank Lloyd Wright. Wright spent 15 years designing the building and gave up 700 sketches and six sets of working drawings in the process. He died six months before the doors were opened. New York City Fire Museum The New York City Fire Museum (set up in 1934) is a charming alternative to the more expensive museums of New York. Here you will find art and artifacts that celebrate the history of firefighting and the New York City Fire Department; including modern-day firefighting equipment and real New York fire equipment from 1790. 1. What do you know about the American Museum of Natural History? A. It consists of 28 exhibition halls. B. It is fit for parents and their kids. C. It lies in the middle of Central Park. D. It is the smallest museum in the world. 2. Which is the youngest museum? A. The New York City Fire Museum. B. The Metropolitan Museum of Art. C. The Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum. D. The American Museum of Natural History. 3. Where can you probably find this passage? A. In a guidebook. B. In an art review. C. In an official report. D. In a traveling schedule. B During the Spring Festival, “Ne Zha 2” became a really popular animated movie. The cinema attendance rate was over 90%. When Ne Zha and Ao Bing fought hard against Infinite Immortal, the cool sound effects made me feel like I was right there in the movie. Suddenly, I thought of a question: How did they make these great sounds? Because I was curious, I went home and started looking for answers. Then I learned about the interesting world of Foley artists. The name “Foley” comes from Jack Foley. He did a lot for the art of sound effects. When sound effects were first added to movies, he came up with a new way to make them. He recorded sounds on one track and added them to the actions in the movie. Foley artists are like sound magicians. They make movies more lively. Their workplaces look simple, but there are lots of tools. They can use normal things to make great sound effects. For example, shaking an umbrella can sound like a strong storm. Hitting two parts of a coconut can sound like a horse walking. Even though Foley artists work behind the scenes, working with actors is very important. Jack Foley said, “You have to act out the scene. You have to be like the actors and understand the story just like they do on the set. It makes a big difference.” In general, paying attention to small things is very important for Foley artists. They also need to be able to make sounds by themselves. This needs creativity and imagination. Getting the perfect sound takes a lot of tries. So, being patient is also important. To make the sound of a character running in the mud, Foley artists have to try many different things and keep changing how they step. When I learned more, I was sad to find out that there are only about 100 Foley artists working around the world. Foley work is great for movies, but there are so few artists now. Maybe it will become a dying art. But I’m glad that with virtual reality getting better, Foley work might change. Next time you watch a movie, listen carefully to the little sounds. They are like secret messages from Foley artists, telling us they are there. 4. Why did the author start to learn about Foley artists? A. Because “Ne Zha 2” was very popular. B. Because the sound effects in “Ne Zha 2” were cool. C. Because the author wanted to become a Foley artist. D. Because the author was curious about how movie sound effects were made. 5. What did Jack Foley do for the movie industry? A. He found a new way to create sound effects for movies. B. He invented new tools for Foley artists. C. He trained many famous Foley artists. D. He made the first animated movie. 6. What is very important for Foley artists according to the passage? A. Being able to act in movies. B. Paying attention to small details. C. Working alone without others’ help. D. Having a lot of money to buy tools. 7. What can we infer from the last paragraph? A. Foley work will disappear soon. B. There will be more Foley artists in the future. C. Virtual reality will replace Foley artists completely. D. Foley work may develop in a new way with virtual reality. C It’s easy for consumers to buy food and drinks like a bowl of hot rice and coke online or from neighbourhood shops, but for astronauts such things were impossible in the past. Members of China’s Shenzhou manned space flight last year, however, were able to enjoy such food, thanks to Joyoung, a Chinese firm. Joyoung created a mobile space kitchen for the astronauts. A drinking water machine, an air heater and a soybean milk maker were all accessible in the kitchen through a smart app. Tang Hongbo, who was a member of the Shenzhou manned spacecraft said in the news that during his three-month trip, he could eat hot food with just half-hour efforts, a contrast to the past when similar attempts required several hours. “If we had time, we would also use equipment to eat homemade yogurt. We could also control the equipment in the space kitchen through mobile phone apps.” he said. In the past, most foods couldn’t be directly heated in a microwave oven in the space. Conduction equipment often caused uneven (不均匀的) heating. An astronaut had to spend as long as four hours to heat some vegetables in the space kitchen. To solve the problem, Joyoung has developed equipment that gives out hot air to heat vegetables in a 360-degree way. That enables astronauts to eat steaming-hot fish-flavoured pork and Gongbao chicken, a spicy, stir-fried Chinese dish. Besides Joyoung, a group of companies, including Xiaomi Coip and Huawei Technologies, have contributed their technologies to the development of the space station. A vacuum (真空) cleaner made haircuts on the spacecraft possible. NOLO VR, a Chinese virtual reality manufacturer, has helped astronauts develop an experimental equipment through which laboratory technicians on the ground can see and experience what astronauts are doing in space. 8. What do astronauts think of Joyoung’s mobile space kitchen? A. Water-saving. B. Energy-wasting. C. Time-saving. D. Money-wasting. 9. How does the author show the convenience on Shenzhou manned spacecraft? A. By making contrasts. B. By analyzing results. C. By providing pictures. D. By answering questions. 10. What does the last paragraph want to show? A. Jayoung needs to further its technology. B. What astronauts are doing is significant. C. Astronauts on board can do as they wish. D. There are more technologies for the spacecraft. 11. What is the best title of the text? A. The Hot Diet on the Space Station Needs to be Addressed B. Earth to Space, Firms Add Value by Creating Technology C. Modern Technology Brings Convenience to Human Beings D. Manufacturers Make Big Profits from Inventing Equipment D Life is busy. We’re always expected to be productive and engaged, whether that’s with parenting, housework, or work. While taking time for small rewards can feel like a luxury (奢侈), the truth is that it is necessary for improving our mental health. A key psychological idea behind this is the Premack Principle, which explains why treating ourselves is more than a tendency; it’s a way to improve our daily lives. In the 1960s, American psychologist David Premack developed a theory now known as Premack Principle. He explained that doing something you’re more likely to do can be a reward for doing something you don’t actually want to do. For instance, if you finish a task you’re not interested in, like cleaning the bathroom, you can treat yourself to something you like, such as watching an episode of your favorite TV show. This approach takes advantage of our natural need for fun to help us get through tasks we might not enjoy. Recent studies keep showing that giving yourself rewards can help improve your work and happiness. For example, Woolley and Fishbach discovered that getting rewards right away can make you more motivated because it links the reward directly with the task. What’s interesting is that it’s not about how big the reward is but how quickly you get it that matters. Another study by Landry and others found it’s not the reward itself but rather how the reward makes people feel that helps them do their best. This makes sense because rewards boost our dopamine (多巴胺) levels, which plays a key role in how our brains feel pleasure. The idea of giving ourselves “little treats” is not just about enjoying something; it’s proof of how positive reinforcement can change our behavior and make us feel better mentally. By carefully using the Premack Principle and rewarding ourselves, we can find more motivation (动机) to face challenges and lead a happier life. It’s okay torecognize and celebrate our efforts, big or small. So, go ahead, give yourself that little treat. You’ve earned it. 12. What is the Premack Principle? A. A tool to work out a long-term plan. B. Away to complete tasks effectively. C. A means to make boring tasks enjoyable. D. A theory to explain how rewards improve happiness. 13. According to Woolley and Fishbach, what helps to improve motivation? A. The type of tasks. B. The immediate reward. C. The size of the reward. D. The level of dopamine. 14. What might be a “positive reinforcement” according to paragraph 4? A. A cleanup. B. Physical training. C. Graduation ceremony. D. A favourite snack. 15. What is the most suitable title for the text? A. The Importance of Productivity B. Motivation and Mental Health C. The Premack Principle for Life D. Dopamine and the Brain’s Pleasure 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Should We Create More National Parks to Save Endangered Animals? Don’t you find it worrying that more and more species of animals are in real danger of becoming extinct? ___16___ And I think the best way to do this is for governments to create more national parks. ___17___ If this environment is destroyed — for example, when farmers clear a forest for new fields, or trees are cut down to make profits — many animals are unable to survive, and more species are likely to become extinct. In addition, national parks protect animals from the danger of being hunted. A major reason why many species are endangered is that these animals are killed by hunters. They hunt animals to make money. ___18___ On the other hand, some people fight against the creation of national parks because they consider it is wrong to interfere with nature. They believe that wild animals are happier living in their natural environment. ___19___ They also point out that a few species are more likely to produce young animals in the wild than in national parks. All in all, these disadvantages are far less important than the benefits of national parks. ___20___ As a matter of fact, they protect animals from their greatest enemies, that is, human beings. A. To begin with, animals are important to humans. B. Some hunters even hunt animals simply for sport. C. I personally believe that we must save these animals. D. These parks allow animals to live in a safe environment. E. Firstly, national parks protect these animals’ natural environment. F. They say though the animals may face danger, they enjoy a free life.
