A 【解析】 【导语】本文探讨睡眠不足对社交意愿的影响，研究表明睡眠不足会使人更孤独，形成恶性循环。 【1题详解】 句意：当你忙于你的学业时，你可能会发现很难获得足够的睡眠。 on在……之上；of属于；at在（表示存在或出现的地点、场所、位置、空间）；with和……一起。“be busy with sth.”，表示“忙于某事”。故选D。 【2题详解】 句意：当你忙于你的学业时，你可能会发现很难获得足够的睡眠。 that那个；it它；this这个；they他们。“find it + 形容词 + to do sth.”是一个常用结构，it在这里作形式宾语，真正的宾语是后面的 “to get enough sleep”。故选B。 【3题详解】 句意：我们都知道睡眠不足对我们的健康有害。 is（be动词第三人称单数形式）；are（be动词复数形式）；was（is/am的过去式）；were（are的过去式）。“not getting enough sleep” 是动名词短语作主语，谓语动词用单数形式，且句子陈述的是一般事实，用一般现在时。故选A。 【4题详解】 句意：但据《卫报》报道，睡眠不足甚至会让你朋友更少。 fewer friends更少的朋友；less friends表达错误（less修饰不可数名词）；fewer friend表达错误（fewer修饰可数名词复数）；less friend表达错误（less修饰不可数名词）。“friend”是可数名词，要用“fewer”来修饰表示“更少的”，“less”修饰不可数名词，所以“更少的朋友”是“fewer friends”。故选A。 【5题详解】 句意：据加州大学的研究人员称，睡眠不足的人不太愿意社交。 which哪一个；who谁；what什么；when什么时候。这里是一个定语从句，先行词是“people”，在从句中作主语，所以关系代词用“who”。故选B。 【6题详解】 句意：他们仅仅是太累了而不想出去。 simple简单的；more simple表达错误（simple的比较级是simpler）；simply仅仅，只不过；more simply更简单地。这里需要一个副词来修饰后面的“too tired to go out”，“simply”表示 “仅仅，只不过”。故选C。 【7题详解】 句意：研究人员做了一项小研究。 a一个（用于辅音音素开头的单词前）；an一个（用于元音音素开头的单词前）；the这个，那个（定冠词）；/不填（零冠词）。“do a study”表示 “做一项研究”，“small”是以辅音音素开头，所以用不定冠词“a”。故选A。 【8题详解】 句意：他们刚睡了一个好觉，并且在一个无眠之夜后再次测试他们。 or或者；but但是；so所以；and和，并且。这里表示两个动作先后发生，“had a good night’s sleep”和“tested them again”是并列关系，用“and”连接。故选D。 【9题详解】 句意：当视频中的人离他们太“近”时，他们按下一个按钮停止视频，这记录了他们允许这个人离得多近。 When当……时候；Until直到；Unless除非；If如果。这里考查时间状语从句，“when”表示 “当……时候”。故选A。 【10题详解】 句意：结果表明，如果人们睡眠不足，他们会让对方保持在远 60% 的距离之外。 which哪一个；that引导宾语从句等（无实际词义）；who谁；what什么。“showed”后面是一个宾语从句，从句不缺少成分，用 “that”引导。故选B。 【11题详解】 句意：但当参与者睡了一个好觉时，他们允许这个人离他们更近。 more closed表达错误（closed是动词close的过去式或过去分词，不是形容词原级，不能用more 修饰）；closer更近的（close的比较级）；closed关闭的；close近的。“much”可以修饰形容词比较级，“close”的比较级是“closer”，表示“更近” 。故选B。 【12题详解】 句意：据首席研究员马修・沃克称，你睡眠越少，就越不想和其他人社交。 another另一个；others其他人或物；the other两者中的另一个；the others其余的（特定范围内的其他全部）。“others” 表示 “其他人” ，“socialize with others”表示“与其他人社交” 。故选B。 【13题详解】 句意：反过来，那些人可能会认为你很奇怪并远离你。 could能够（can的过去式）；must必须；may可能；should应该。“may”表示 “可能” ，这里表示其他人可能会认为你很奇怪然后远离你。故选C。 【14题详解】 句意：这会让你感到孤独，并导致你睡眠更少。 to feel去感觉（动词不定式）；felt感觉（feel的过去式和过去分词）；feels感觉（feel的第三人称单数形式）；feel感觉（动词原形）。“make sb. do sth.”表示“让某人做某事”，所以用动词原形“feel”。故选D。 【15题详解】 句意：“一晚好觉会让你感觉更外向、在社交上更自信，” 沃克告诉《每日邮报》。 told告诉（tell的过去式和过去分词）；tells告诉（tell的第三人称单数形式）；is telling正在告诉（现在进行时）；was telling正在告诉（过去进行时）。文章整体是一般过去时，所以这里用“told”。故选A。 二、完形填空 （共10题，每小题1分，满分10分） Meeting a polar bear I put my day’s supply of food into my bag and then began to take down the tent.

She was Wang Zhenyi (1768—1797), a famous woman scientist and poet from the Qing dynasty. In the late 1700s, women were usually expected to cook, clean, and have babies. However, when Zhenyi was young, she wanted to learn everything. Her grandfather was once an official and had a collection of over 75 bookshelves. He was her first teacher in astronomy. Her father studied medical science and was the person who taught her medicine, geography, and math. Her grandmother was her teacher of poetry. Zhenyi learned a lot from her family, but that didn’t mean she just had her nose in a book. While Chinese scientists and philosophers had studied stars for ages, Zhenyi did something quite interesting and new. She used her skills and math knowledge to explain what was happening in the sky. When she was 23, to explain how solar and lunar eclipse (日食月食) happened, Zhenyi used a round table as the Earth, a lamp as the sun and a round mirror to act as the moon. She moved the mirror around the table under the light and showed that when the sun, moon, and Earth were on a line, sunlight was stopped and so eclipse happened. At the age of 16, Zhenyi journeyed throughout the country with his father. As she did, she saw not only the beauty, but also the problems of her country—the rich were getting richer and paid the poor little attention. Zhenyi also noticed that women were often hidden away from the outside world, working at home for the family. She wanted to capture it all—each moment of her travels. She wanted other people to see, to know, to understand, so she wrote poems and showed them to the public. Zhenyi got married at the age of 25 and continued to work as an astronomer and poet but died young 4 years later. In total, Wang Zhenyi wrote more than 12 books about science and poems. While many of her writings have been lost, her helps to science continue to be studied today. And in 1994, scientists even named a crater on Venus (金星陨石坑) after her! As she famously wrote in one of her poems, “Do you not believe, daughters can also be heroic?” 26. What is the passage mainly about? A. The problem Wang Zhenyi found in her travel. B. The difficulties Wang Zhenyi faced in her life. C. The general details of Wang Zhenyi’s life story. D. The important discoveries made by Wang Zhenyi. 27. Which of the following best describes Wang’ family? A. Strict but interesting. B. Kind but uneducated. C. Helpful and hardworking. D. Supportive and open-minded. 28. Why was the journey with her father important to Wang Zhenyi? A. It allowed her to learn more about society. B. It helped her do better her study in stars. C. It got her to experience life of ordinary people. D. It let her believe that daughters can also be heroic. 29. What is the correct order for the following events from Wang’s life? a. She owned a crater named after her on Venus. b. She traveled nationwide and recorded what she saw. c. She showed the reason of eclipses using household objects. d. She received education in astronomy, medicine, and poetry. e. She got married and continued in scientific research and poetry. A. d-c-b-e-a B. d-b-c-e-a C. a-e-b-d-c D. a-c-b-d-e 【答案】26. C 27. D 28. A 29. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇人物传记，主要讲述了清朝女科学家兼诗人王贞仪的生平故事，包括她的家庭背景、学术成就、社会观察及文学创作。 【26题详解】 主旨大意题。文章围绕王贞仪的一生展开，从她的家庭、学习、旅行、婚姻到成就等方面进行介绍，“The general details of Wang Zhenyi’s life story 最贴合。故选C。 【27题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第二段“Her grandfather was once an official and had a collection of over 75 bookshelves.

Smell A down jacket that smells bad has low-quality stuffing (填充物). Knowledge 3: Types and colors of down Q: Is goose down (鹅绒) warmer than duck down? A: No! Goose down jackets are more expensive because: Q: Is white duck down warmer than grey duck down? A: No! The white duck down is as warm as the grey one.

D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了羽绒服的保暖原理、选购要点以及羽绒的类型与颜色。 【30题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第一段“A down jacket keeps you warm by trapping air within it. This air creates a warm space that keeps your body heat from leaving.”可知，羽绒服的保暖原理是阻止warm air流失。故选C。 【31题详解】 细节理解题。根据细节理解题 ①根据 “Knowledge 1”中“a down jacket: Down cluster content ≥50% ；not a down jacket: Down cluster content <50%”，40% 不达标，①错误；②根据“Knowledge 2”中“Smell: A down jacket that smells bad has low - quality stuffing (填充物).”，可知无异味是好的，②正确；③根据“Knowledge 2”中“Quality standard should be GB/T 14272 - 2021.”，可知要有质量标准号，③错误；④根据“Knowledge 2”中“Touch: Press down on the down jacket and then let go.

A: No!”以及“Is white duck down warmer than grey duck down? A: No! The white duck down is as warm as the grey one.”可知，羽绒服保暖性不取决于羽绒种类和颜色。故选D。 C FOUR BEST BOOKSHOPS IN LONDON Looking for something to read while in London?

Dr. Carol Dweck, a psychology professor at Stanford University, has discovered that people with a fixed mindset solve problems in a much different way from those with a growth mindset. Dr. Dweck found people with a fixed mindset care about grades. When they make mistakes, they think it means they’re not smart. ____42____ They’re afraid of challenges, because if they don’t do well, they may look dumb. People with a growth mindset, on the other hand, care about learning, not grades. They learn from mistakes by trying different ways to solve problems or asking for help. ____43____ They discovered that students with a growth mindset do better in math; those with a fixed mindset do worse. Why? Kids with both mindsets do well in primary school, but middle school math is much harder. So while the growth-mindset kids accept the challenge and work harder, the fixed-mindset kids may just give up. ____44____ But Dweck’s team discovered something even more important than that. They found that, with some work, kids can choose to have a growth mindset and do better in school. Everyone has some of each type of mindset. ____45____ When you hear your fixed mindset voice telling you that you’re dumb, or that you’ll look stupid if you ask for help, or that learning a new skill is hard, talk back to it! Then you really can get smarter by working hard, practicing and challenging yourself! A. As a result, their grades drop. B. They also care about how smart they look. C. Some hold the belief that not everyone can become a genius. D. They are just like two kinds of voices in your head. E. Dweck and her team did a research among middle school students. 【答案】41. C 42. B 43. E 44. A 45. D 【解析】 【导语】本文介绍了斯坦福大学的心理学教授Carol Dweck博士发现，固定心态的人与成长心态的人解决问题的方式大不相同。 【41题详解】 根据“Some believe that people are either smart or dumb.”可知，有些人是聪明的，有些人是愚蠢的，因此不是每个人都是天才，C项“有些人认为不是每个人都能成为天才。”符合语境，故选C。 【42题详解】 根据“When they make mistakes, they think it means they’re not smart.”可知，当他们犯错了，他们认为这意味着他们不聪明，因此他们在乎自己是否聪明，B项“他们还在乎自己看起来有多聪明。”符合语境，故选B。 【43题详解】 根据“They discovered that students with a growth mindset do better in math; those with a fixed mindset do worse.”可知，他们有发现，应是他们做了研究，E项“德韦克和她的团队在中学生中做了一项研究。”符合语境，故选E。 【44题详解】 根据“So while the growth-mindset kids accept the challenge and work harder, the fixed-mindset kids may just give up.”可知，固定心态的孩子放弃了，不努力学习，因此他们的成绩会下降，A项“结果，他们的成绩下降了。”符合语境，故选A。 【45题详解】 根据“When you hear your fixed mindset voice telling you that you’re dumb, or that you’ll look stupid if you ask for help, or that learning a new skill is hard, talk back to it!”可知，你脑子里有每种心态的声音，D项“它们就像你脑子里的两种声音。”符合语境，故选D。 四、写作（共三节，满分 30 分） 第一节 语篇填词（共 5 小题；每小题 1 分，满分 5 分） 根据下列短文内容及所给单词的首字母写出所缺单词。要求写出完整单词（每空限填一词）。 What would you do if you failed?

She was Wang Zhenyi (1768—1797), a famous woman scientist and poet from the Qing dynasty. In the late 1700s, women were usually expected to cook, clean, and have babies. However, when Zhenyi was young, she wanted to learn everything. Her grandfather was once an official and had a collection of over 75 bookshelves. He was her first teacher in astronomy. Her father studied medical science and was the person who taught her medicine, geography, and math. Her grandmother was her teacher of poetry. Zhenyi learned a lot from her family, but that didn’t mean she just had her nose in a book. While Chinese scientists and philosophers had studied stars for ages, Zhenyi did something quite interesting and new. She used her skills and math knowledge to explain what was happening in the sky. When she was 23, to explain how solar and lunar eclipse (日食月食) happened, Zhenyi used a round table as the Earth, a lamp as the sun and a round mirror to act as the moon. She moved the mirror around the table under the light and showed that when the sun, moon, and Earth were on a line, sunlight was stopped and so eclipse happened. At the age of 16, Zhenyi journeyed throughout the country with his father. As she did, she saw not only the beauty, but also the problems of her country—the rich were getting richer and paid the poor little attention. Zhenyi also noticed that women were often hidden away from the outside world, working at home for the family. She wanted to capture it all—each moment of her travels. She wanted other people to see, to know, to understand, so she wrote poems and showed them to the public. Zhenyi got married at the age of 25 and continued to work as an astronomer and poet but died young 4 years later. In total, Wang Zhenyi wrote more than 12 books about science and poems. While many of her writings have been lost, her helps to science continue to be studied today. And in 1994, scientists even named a crater on Venus (金星陨石坑) after her! As she famously wrote in one of her poems, “Do you not believe, daughters can also be heroic?” 26. What is the passage mainly about? A. The problem Wang Zhenyi found in her travel. B. The difficulties Wang Zhenyi faced in her life. C. The general details of Wang Zhenyi’s life story. D. The important discoveries made by Wang Zhenyi. 27. Which of the following best describes Wang’ family? A. Strict but interesting. B. Kind but uneducated. C. Helpful and hardworking. D. Supportive and open-minded. 28. Why was the journey with her father important to Wang Zhenyi? A. It allowed her to learn more about society. B. It helped her do better her study in stars. C. It got her to experience life of ordinary people. D. It let her believe that daughters can also be heroic. 29. What is the correct order for the following events from Wang’s life? a. She owned a crater named after her on Venus. b. She traveled nationwide and recorded what she saw. c. She showed the reason of eclipses using household objects. d. She received education in astronomy, medicine, and poetry. e. She got married and continued in scientific research and poetry. A. d-c-b-e-a B. d-b-c-e-a C. a-e-b-d-c D. a-c-b-d-e B A “down jacket” is a warm coat filled with bird feathers. It keeps you warm and comfortable in cold weather.

Touch Press down on the down jacket and then let go. If it quickly goes back its original shape, it means the jacket is very soft and will keep you warmer.

Goose down jackets are more expensive because: Q: Is white duck down warmer than grey duck down? A: No! The white duck down is as warm as the grey one.

And if they are smart, everything is easy for them. ____41____ But they can improve the skills they have and develop new ones. What’s your opinion? In fact, this is related to one’s mindset (思维模式). Dr. Carol Dweck, a psychology professor at Stanford University, has discovered that people with a fixed mindset solve problems in a much different way from those with a growth mindset. Dr. Dweck found people with a fixed mindset care about grades. When they make mistakes, they think it means they’re not smart. ____42____ They’re afraid of challenges, because if they don’t do well, they may look dumb.

Why? Kids with both mindsets do well in primary school, but middle school math is much harder. So while the growth-mindset kids accept the challenge and work harder, the fixed-mindset kids may just give up. ____44____ But Dweck’s team discovered something even more important than that.
