The Cariwest Festival It is one of Edmonton’s most colourful summer festivals! It’s three days of fun as Caribbean Canadians share their music, cuisine and carnival culture! Local performers bring you amazing dance, music and fun. Bring Cariwest atmosphere into your home this year with these amazing online events. Indigenous Festival The annual Summer Solstice Indigenous Festival (SSIF) in Edmonton has done a wonderful job to make their annual off-line festival a number of online events this year because of COVID-19. The events take place from June 1 to 21. SSIF has partnered with BMO to provide Education Days for students to learn together about indigenous history. These classes for which only a small fee will be charged include art workshops, book readings and museum tours. Bluegrass Festival Just 45 minutes from the heart of downtown Edmonton is the town of Stony Plain that works hard to keep ties to its agricultural background, and here you’ll see old-styled lamp posts and historical wall paintings with a long history everywhere. It’s also the site of Western Canada’s largest bluegrass festival, which has been a main attraction for more than 25 years and in July every year draws in all the big names, including Grammy winners. Cowboy Festival You like poetry, music, art and cowboys? Then you can’t miss it. Heading into its 24th year, Cowboy Festival in Stony Plain in August is a showcase of the cowboy life. The events include good old-fashioned BBQ meals and some other entertainment. 21. What is true about SSIF? A. It takes place in two cities. B. It focuses on students. C. It is annually held online.

The Cariwest Festival. B Arsh believes in the importance of making the world a more beautiful place. The talented boy not only paints but also sells his artwork and donates the money. It all started when his parents bought him a set of painting tools for his 8th birthday. Once he had his own materials, he began spending much of his free time putting color on his canvas. As Arsh’s paintings began to grow in number, he decided to give them as gifts to friends and family. Receiving a positive response from people around him, he soon realized his pieces had the potential to get much more than smiles and praise. His light-bulb moment came shortly after: he would sell his artwork and donate the money to charity. His first plan was to raise $1,000 for St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital, which he accomplished in around nine months by selling his paintings on social media and at local art shows. Since then, he’s broadened his reach to benefit other organizations, including childhood cancer nonprofit Compass to Care and the Make-A-Wish Foundation. He’s raised over $16,000 for charities so far. Arsh’s artwork is often colorful and cheery, as one might expect from a youngster, but it showcases the impressive technique of a gifted artist. Some pieces are more abstract in nature; others feature realistic renditions (演绎) of flowers and animals. They range in size and complexity, and, accordingly, price. Small paintings might sell for $10 while larger canvases, up to five feet, have gone for $800. Last year, Arsh won The Diana Award, an honor presented by a UK charity founded on Princess Diana’s belief that young people have the power to change their country. And the young artist has advice for other kids looking to make a difference. “Helping others doesn’t have to be, like, money or anything. It can be your time, your skills, your talent,” he says, “and overall, just be kind to other people to make their day better.” 24. What made Arsh interested in painting? A. A birthday present from his parents. B. His parents’ deep love for painting. C. The encouragement of others around him. D. His fascination with the beauty of nature. 25. Why did Arsh decide to sell his artwork? A. To pay for his painting materials. B. To get more attention from others. C. To attract children’s interest in art. D. To help those people who are in need. 26. What can we learn about Arsh from the text? A. His fundraising plan is going well. B. He will turn his attention to his studies. C. All his paintings sell at high prices now. D. He is going to teach other children to paint for free. 27. What does Arsh want to say in the last paragraph? A. Every child has a unique talent. B. Everyone has the ability to help others. C. Talent plays an important role in learning art. D. Helping others is the responsibility of young artists. C A 2,300-year-old shield (盾) made of tree bark has been discovered in Leicestershire, Europe. Such type of shield has never been dug out in Europe although shields like gold ones have been found before. No wonder that scientists regard the 2,300-year-old shield to be valuable. “This is a great object used as a weapon(武器) in the Iron Age,” said Julia Farley, expert in British and European Iron Age collections. The shield was discovered in 2015 by scientists from the University of Leicester Archaeological Service in an “animal watering hole” close to the River Soar. Organic (有机物) objects from the period rarely survive, but the shield was deposited in waterlogged (水涝的) soil that the “animal watering hole” contains. The waterlogged soil tends to cause low temperature underground and poorly-circulated air, which makes it hard for organic things to break up. Bark shields of the period were entirely unknown in Europe and researchers had assumed that the material might have been too weak and fragile for use in war. However, experiments to remake the weapon in the same material showed the 3mm-thick shield, though very light, would have been tough enough for battle. It was likely that similar weapons were widespread. The shield is made from green bark that has been constructed with many types of wood. One of them is the green wood, which would tighten as it has dried giving the shield its strength and a shape of a figure of eight. The outside of the shield has been painted and given a special decoration. Farley said, “This is a lost technology. Maybe it s a technique that was used for making bark products in many ways.” “Because so little organic material survives from the period,” Farley said, “We are left with the earthworks(土木工程) and some of the ironwork. But we don’t really see the everyday world of these people: the wooden houses they lived in and their clothing. So the visual world of the Iron Age is lost to us. But something like the bark shield is just a tiny window into that.” The shield has been donated to the British Museum. Farley said she hoped it would be seen by the public next year. 28. Why is the newly-discovered shield considered to be valuable? A. It contains some rare materials like gold. B. It’s the oldest shield found in the world so far. C. It’s the only example of its kind ever found in Europe. D. It’s the only weapon dating from the Iron Age of Leicestershire. 29. What can we learn about the “animal watering hole”? A. It once lied in a battle field. B. It helped preserve the bark shield. C. It was buried with many artworks. D. It is close to a university. 30. What assumption did scientists use to have about bark shields? A. They tended to be impractical. B. They were very light weapons. C. They were made as artworks. D. They were made of two kinds of wood. 31. What was Farley’s attitude to the newly-discovered shield? A. Concerned. B. Doubtful. C. Positive. D. Negative. D Are you a fan of birds? If so, you may have admired their beautiful colors and sweet songs. But do you know these feathered friends can actually do more than that? A new study published in the journal Scientific Reports finds that exposure to birds, either in the home or outdoors, can boost people’s moods. Researchers at King’s College London used a smartphone app built by the school’s Urban Mind project to collect the real-time feelings of study participants upon seeing or hearing a bird. A total of 1,292 people living in the United Kingdom, Europe, and the United States participated in the study which was conducted between April 2018 and October 2021. The app asked participants three times a day whether they could see or hear a bird followed by a series of questions on their mental well-being. Participants were also asked questions about whether they could see trees, plants or hear any water to see if people were experiencing better mental well-being due to being in or seeing nature, and not just because of exposure to birds. According to the study, the mental well-being of study participants with and without depression was significantly improved after seeing a bird or hearing birdsong compared to not seeing or hearing a bird. There is a growing number of studies that link spending time outdoors (either in green leafy places or next to bodies of water) to improved mental health. But there are few studies that look at how different aspects of nature can play into humans’ mental well-being. And while the study adds to the small pile of research on birds and mental health, the report marks the first time researchers have studied the responses to birds and mental well-being in real-time, according to Ryan Hammoud, lead author of the study. “They kind of examine nature as a single object when nature includes many different characteristics and features like trees, plants, water, birds,” said Hammoud, “We choose to focus on bird life to try and understand which specific characteristics of nature benefit mental well-being.” 32. What is the purpose of paragraph 1? A. To introduce a phenomenon. B. To bring in the topic. C. To ask an interesting question. D. To provide background information. 33. How did the researchers conduct the study? A. By analyzing previous studies. B. By observing the behavior of birds. C. By gathering feelings of participants. D. By studying people’s effect on birds. 34. What does Hammoud think of the new study? A. Pioneering. B. Interesting. C. Conventional. D. Practical. 35. What is the main idea of the text? A. Bird watching has become a popular hobby. B. Exposure to birds can improve mental well-being. C. Nature is the best medicine for mental health issues. D. Spending time outdoors can impact mental health positively. 第二节 (共5小题满分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。 How to Stay Awake During School If you’ve ever pulled an all-nighter or had a bad night of sleep, you know it's difficult to stay awake in class when you're tired So how to keep yourself awake? ___36___ Taking part in class ___37___ They are great ways to force yourself to stay awake because they require your mind and your body to work together.

In May, it’s popular for group discussions in literature classes. When final exams come in July, some students use it to relax between studying. The book tells stories about high school students. When a new term starts, the main characters join the school’s stargazing club. Once they’re familiar with the club activities, they start planning a star-themed show. It’s hard to put down this book because the stories feel real. You can almost imagine being part of their adventures. Also, the writing is clear and the pictures inside are beautiful. What makes the starry notes different from other teen books? Its cover is sky blue in spring and changes to deep purple in winter, and the pages have tiny stars that shine under light. 第二部分 阅读 (共两节 满分50分) 第一节 (共15小题, 每小题2.5分 满分37.5分) 阅读下列短文, 从所给选项中选出最佳选项 A Let’s celebrate some festivals in summer.

Local performers bring you amazing dance, music and fun. Bring Cariwest atmosphere into your home this year with these amazing online events. Indigenous Festival The annual Summer Solstice Indigenous Festival (SSIF) in Edmonton has done a wonderful job to make their annual off-line festival a number of online events this year because of COVID-19.

The talented boy not only paints but also sells his artwork and donates the money. It all started when his parents bought him a set of painting tools for his 8th birthday. Once he had his own materials, he began spending much of his free time putting color on his canvas. As Arsh’s paintings began to grow in number, he decided to give them as gifts to friends and family. Receiving a positive response from people around him, he soon realized his pieces had the potential to get much more than smiles and praise. His light-bulb moment came shortly after: he would sell his artwork and donate the money to charity. His first plan was to raise $1,000 for St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital, which he accomplished in around nine months by selling his paintings on social media and at local art shows. Since then, he’s broadened his reach to benefit other organizations, including childhood cancer nonprofit Compass to Care and the Make-A-Wish Foundation. He’s raised over $16,000 for charities so far. Arsh’s artwork is often colorful and cheery, as one might expect from a youngster, but it showcases the impressive technique of a gifted artist. Some pieces are more abstract in nature; others feature realistic renditions (演绎) of flowers and animals. They range in size and complexity, and, accordingly, price. Small paintings might sell for $10 while larger canvases, up to five feet, have gone for $800. Last year, Arsh won The Diana Award, an honor presented by a UK charity founded on Princess Diana’s belief that young people have the power to change their country. And the young artist has advice for other kids looking to make a difference. “Helping others doesn’t have to be, like, money or anything. It can be your time, your skills, your talent,” he says, “and overall, just be kind to other people to make their day better.” 24. What made Arsh interested in painting? A. A birthday present from his parents. B. His parents’ deep love for painting. C. The encouragement of others around him. D. His fascination with the beauty of nature. 25. Why did Arsh decide to sell his artwork? A. To pay for his painting materials. B. To get more attention from others. C. To attract children’s interest in art. D. To help those people who are in need. 26. What can we learn about Arsh from the text? A. His fundraising plan is going well. B. He will turn his attention to his studies. C. All his paintings sell at high prices now. D. He is going to teach other children to paint for free. 27. What does Arsh want to say in the last paragraph? A. Every child has a unique talent. B. Everyone has the ability to help others. C. Talent plays an important role in learning art. D. Helping others is the responsibility of young artists. 【答案】24. A 25. D 26. A 27. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述Arsh喜欢画画，把自己的作品卖掉捐给慈善机构，并获得了英国慈善机构颁发的荣誉。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“It all started when his parents bought him a set of painting tools for his 8th birthday. Once he had his own materials, he began spending much of his free time putting color on his canvas. (这一切都始于他的父母在他8岁生日时给他买了一套绘画工具。一旦他有了自己的材料，他就开始花大量的空闲时间在画布上上色)”可知，父母送给Arsh的一个生日礼物使他对画画感兴趣。故选A。 【25题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“His light-bulb moment came shortly after: he would sell his artwork and donate the money to charity. (不久之后，他的灵光一现：他将卖掉自己的艺术品，把钱捐给慈善机构)”可知，Arsh决定卖掉自己的画作是为了帮助有需要的人。故选D。 【26题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中“His first plan was to raise $1,000 for St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital, which he accomplished in around nine months by selling his paintings on social media and at local art shows. Since then, he’s broadened his reach to benefit other organizations, including childhood cancer nonprofit Compass to Care and the Make-A-Wish Foundation. He’s raised over $16,000 for charities so far. (他的第一个计划是为St. Jude儿童研究医院筹集1000美元，他通过在社交媒体和当地艺术展上出售自己的画作，在大约9个月的时间里完成了这个目标。从那以后，他扩大了自己的影响范围，帮助其他组织，包括儿童癌症非营利组Compass to Car和the Make-A-Wish 基金会。到目前为止，他已经为慈善机构筹集了超过16000美元)”可推知，Arsh的筹资计划进展顺利。故选A。 【27题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“‘Helping others doesn’t have to be, like, money or anything. It can be your time, your skills, your talent,’ he says, ‘and overall, just be kind to other people to make their day better.’ (‘帮助别人不一定是金钱或其他东西。它可以是你的时间，你的技能，你的才能，’他说，‘总的来说，只是善待别人，让他们的一天更美好。’)”可知，Arsh说帮助别人可以是任何东西，只是善待别人，就可以让他人的一天更美好。由此推知，他的意思是每个人都有帮助别人的能力。故选B。 C A 2,300-year-old shield (盾) made of tree bark has been discovered in Leicestershire, Europe. Such type of shield has never been dug out in Europe although shields like gold ones have been found before. No wonder that scientists regard the 2,300-year-old shield to be valuable. “This is a great object used as a weapon(武器) in the Iron Age,” said Julia Farley, expert in British and European Iron Age collections. The shield was discovered in 2015 by scientists from the University of Leicester Archaeological Service in an “animal watering hole” close to the River Soar. Organic (有机物) objects from the period rarely survive, but the shield was deposited in waterlogged (水涝的) soil that the “animal watering hole” contains. The waterlogged soil tends to cause low temperature underground and poorly-circulated air, which makes it hard for organic things to break up. Bark shields of the period were entirely unknown in Europe and researchers had assumed that the material might have been too weak and fragile for use in war. However, experiments to remake the weapon in the same material showed the 3mm-thick shield, though very light, would have been tough enough for battle. It was likely that similar weapons were widespread. The shield is made from green bark that has been constructed with many types of wood. One of them is the green wood, which would tighten as it has dried giving the shield its strength and a shape of a figure of eight. The outside of the shield has been painted and given a special decoration. Farley said, “This is a lost technology. Maybe it s a technique that was used for making bark products in many ways.” “Because so little organic material survives from the period,” Farley said, “We are left with the earthworks(土木工程) and some of the ironwork. But we don’t really see the everyday world of these people: the wooden houses they lived in and their clothing. So the visual world of the Iron Age is lost to us. But something like the bark shield is just a tiny window into that.” The shield has been donated to the British Museum. Farley said she hoped it would be seen by the public next year. 28. Why is the newly-discovered shield considered to be valuable? A. It contains some rare materials like gold. B. It’s the oldest shield found in the world so far. C. It’s the only example of its kind ever found in Europe. D. It’s the only weapon dating from the Iron Age of Leicestershire. 29. What can we learn about the “animal watering hole”? A. It once lied in a battle field. B. It helped preserve the bark shield. C. It was buried with many artworks. D. It is close to a university. 30. What assumption did scientists use to have about bark shields? A. They tended to be impractical. B. They were very light weapons. C. They were made as artworks. D. They were made of two kinds of wood. 31. What was Farley’s attitude to the newly-discovered shield? A. Concerned. B. Doubtful. C. Positive. D. Negative. 【答案】28. C 29. B 30. A 31. C 【解析】 这是一篇新闻报道。在欧洲的莱斯特郡，人们发现了一块有2300年历史的树皮盾牌。作者对此进行了详细的报道。 【28题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段第二句“Such type of shield has never been dug out in Europe although shields like gold ones have been found before.”（这种类型的盾在欧洲从未被挖掘出来，尽管以前曾发现过类似黄金的盾。）可知，这是在欧洲发现的唯一一例，所以这个新发现的盾牌被认为很珍贵。故选C。 【29题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段最后一句“The waterlogged soil tends to cause low temperature underground and poorly-circulated air, which makes it hard for organic things to break up.”（渍水的土壤往往导致地下温度低，空气循环不良，这使得有机物很难分解。）可知，“动物水坑”帮助保存树皮盾牌。故选B。 【30题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段第一句“Bark shields of the period were entirely unknown in Europe and researchers had assumed that the material might have been too weak and fragile for use in war.”（这一时期的树皮盾牌在欧洲是完全未知的，研究人员过去认为这种材料可能过于脆弱，不适合在战争中使用。）可知，过去科学家认为树皮盾牌是不实用的。故选A。 【31题详解】 推理判断题。根据倒第三段最后两句“This is a lost technology. Maybe it s a technique that was used for making bark products in many ways.”（这是一项遗失的技术。也许这是一种以多种方式制作树皮制品的技术。）可知，法利认为这种技术很高超，只是遗失了。根据最后一段最后一句“Farley said she hoped it would be seen by the public next year.”（法利说，她希望明年能让公众看到它。）可知，法利非常欣赏树皮盾牌。所以法利对这个新发现的盾牌的态度是积极的。故选C。 D Are you a fan of birds? If so, you may have admired their beautiful colors and sweet songs. But do you know these feathered friends can actually do more than that? A new study published in the journal Scientific Reports finds that exposure to birds, either in the home or outdoors, can boost people’s moods. Researchers at King’s College London used a smartphone app built by the school’s Urban Mind project to collect the real-time feelings of study participants upon seeing or hearing a bird. A total of 1,292 people living in the United Kingdom, Europe, and the United States participated in the study which was conducted between April 2018 and October 2021. The app asked participants three times a day whether they could see or hear a bird followed by a series of questions on their mental well-being. Participants were also asked questions about whether they could see trees, plants or hear any water to see if people were experiencing better mental well-being due to being in or seeing nature, and not just because of exposure to birds. According to the study, the mental well-being of study participants with and without depression was significantly improved after seeing a bird or hearing birdsong compared to not seeing or hearing a bird. There is a growing number of studies that link spending time outdoors (either in green leafy places or next to bodies of water) to improved mental health. But there are few studies that look at how different aspects of nature can play into humans’ mental well-being. And while the study adds to the small pile of research on birds and mental health, the report marks the first time researchers have studied the responses to birds and mental well-being in real-time, according to Ryan Hammoud, lead author of the study. “They kind of examine nature as a single object when nature includes many different characteristics and features like trees, plants, water, birds,” said Hammoud, “We choose to focus on bird life to try and understand which specific characteristics of nature benefit mental well-being.” 32. What is the purpose of paragraph 1? A. To introduce a phenomenon. B. To bring in the topic. C. To ask an interesting question. D. To provide background information. 33. How did the researchers conduct the study? A. By analyzing previous studies. B. By observing the behavior of birds. C. By gathering feelings of participants. D. By studying people’s effect on birds. 34. What does Hammoud think of the new study? A. Pioneering. B. Interesting. C. Conventional. D. Practical. 35. What is the main idea of the text? A. Bird watching has become a popular hobby. B. Exposure to birds can improve mental well-being. C. Nature is the best medicine for mental health issues. D. Spending time outdoors can impact mental health positively. 【答案】32. B 33. C 34. A 35. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。研究发现，接触鸟，包括赏鸟、听鸟鸣等有助于人的心理健康。 【32题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“Are you a fan of birds? If so, you may have admired their beautiful colors and sweet songs. But do you know these feathered friends can actually do more than that?”（ 你喜欢鸟吗?如果是这样，你可能会欣赏它们美丽的颜色和甜美的歌声。但你知道这些长着羽毛的朋友实际上可以做更多的事情吗?）可知，第一段主要是引入主题。故选B。 【33题详解】 细节理解题。由第三段“Researchers at King’s College London used a smartphone app built by the school’s Urban Mind project to collect the real-time feelings of study participants upon seeing or hearing a bird.”（伦敦国王学院的研究人员使用了一款由该学院城市思维项目开发的智能手机应用程序，来收集研究参与者在看到或听到鸟叫声时的实时感受）可知，研究者们利用智能手机的应用程序实时记录研究参与者们看到或听到鸟儿的情绪。故选C。 【34题详解】 推理判断题。由第七段“And while the study adds to the small pile of research on birds and mental health, the report marks the first time researchers have studied the responses to birds and mental well-being in real-time”（虽然这项研究增加了关于鸟类和心理健康的少量研究，但该报告标志着研究人员首次实时研究了对鸟类和心理健康的反应）可知，Hammoud认为该研究第一次关注了人们对鸟儿的反应以及实时的情绪变化，因此是开创性的。故选A。 【35题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第二段“A new study published in the journal Scientific Reports finds that exposure to birds, either in the home or outdoors, can boost people’s moods.”（发表在《科学报告》杂志上的一项新研究发现，无论是在家里还是在户外，与鸟类接触都能改善人们的情绪。）可知，究发现，接触鸟，包括赏鸟、听鸟鸣等有助于人的心理健康。故选B。 第二节 (共5小题满分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。 How to Stay Awake During School If you’ve ever pulled an all-nighter or had a bad night of sleep, you know it's difficult to stay awake in class when you're tired So how to keep yourself awake? ___36___ Taking part in class ___37___ They are great ways to force yourself to stay awake because they require your mind and your body to work together.
