Introduction to English Dictionaries
Oxford English Dictionary (OED)
First published in 1884, edited by James Murray and a team of scholars. It’s well-known for its historical depth, tracing word origins and usage across centuries with 600,000+ entries. Regarded as the “gold standard” of English dictionaries, though its sheer size makes it less portable. The print version costs around $395, while the 12-month online subscription is $29.95, available via Oxford University Press’s official website or major book retailers like Amazon.
Cambridge Advanced Learner’s Dictionary (CALD)
Launched in 1995 by Cambridge University Press, tailored for non-native speakers. It features simple explanations, 14,000+ example sentences, and collocation guides. Widely acclaimed for supporting language learning, with regular updates to reflect modern English. The print edition is about $34.99, and the app subscription is $14.99 / year, accessible via Cambridge’s official store or Apple Books.
Merriam-Webster’s Collegiate Dictionary
Founded on Noah Webster’s 1828 “American Dictionary”, the first collegiate edition emerged in 1898. It prioritizes American English, offering clear definitions, current usage examples, and pronunciation guides. A staple in US classrooms and offices, praised for accessibility. Priced at approximately $24.99 (print) and $19.99 (e-book), it can be purchased from Merriam-Webster’s site, Barnes & Noble, or digital platforms like Kindle.
Collins English Dictionary
First released in 1979, compiled by Collins lexicographers. It stands out for its “word banks” and real-world usage focus, drawing on a 4.5-billion-word corpus. Praised for relevance to everyday English, though some critics note less historical detail than the OED. It retails (零售) for around $27.99 (print) and $17.99 (digital), available on Collins’ website, Walmart, or Google Play Books.

When I was in graduate school, I admired a student named Peter. Smart, articulate and charming, Peter was the type of person I wanted to be like. One day in the library — his final quarter before graduation — I congratulated him. His reply shocked me: “I am excited, but I didn’t build my network well, so no jobs are lined up yet.”
His words terrified me. If someone as impressive as Peter had no job prospects, what would happen to me? As the son of two immigrants, education was my ticket to success. I could not afford to waste this opportunity. I found myself feeling anxious and fearful. I had to secure my career — finishing school without a job was too risky.
Then I recalled the repeated advice: “Network and build relationships. It’s who you know, not what you know.” They were right. Education wasn’t the highway to opportunity, just an on-ramp (入口匝道). The real highway was social capital — your network and the people who know you.
Determined, I spent all my free time building relationships with potential employers. It worked — internships and jobs opened up — but it felt wrong. I treated people as transactions (交易), only asking, “What can I get from them?” Networking became a “necessary evil”.
One day, I ran into a childhood friend at a café. He spent the whole time urging me to join his multi-level marketing scheme, promising I’d make enough money to quit working and support my parents — just by getting people to buy products they already needed.
That moment changed everything. I realized: if networking feels unpleasant, you’re doing it wrong. Relationships are like a garden — tend them well, and they’ll grow and bear more fruit than you can consume. Instead of taking, invest in others, serve them, and connect them. Giving social capital doesn’t deplete (耗尽) it — it multiplies it.
Becoming a generous relational investor is a lifestyle. So, what’s your approach? Are you a greedy consumer or a generous investor? It’s never too late to ask: “What can I give?” instead of “What can I get?”
4. What does the underlined phrase “lined up” in Paragraph 1 probably mean?
A. Arranged. B. Canceled. C. Changed. D. Forgotten.
5. What can be known about the author?
A. His parents were well-educated. B. He valued education highly.
C. He grew up in a wealthy family. D. His parents worked in marketing.
6. How did the author change in thinking about networking?
A. From believing “education is key” to “social capital is key”.
B. From viewing networking as “necessary” to “unnecessary”.
C. From treating others as “transactional partners” to “relational investees”.
D. From focusing on “meeting employers” to “helping friends”.
7. What is the best title for the text?
A. Education: A path to Success B. Networking: Give Rather Than Take
C. Job-Hunting: A Goal for Graduates D. Friendship: A Source of Suggestions
【答案】4. A 5. B 6. C 7. B
【解析】
【导语】本文主要介绍了作者从最初将人际交往视为获取利益的交易,到后来领悟到真正的社交资本在于慷慨付出、服务他人,从而转变了对人际关系的看法。
【4题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第一段“His reply shocked me: “I am excited, but I didn’t build my network well, so no jobs are lined up yet.”(他的回答让我震惊:“我很兴奋,但我没有很好地建立人脉,所以还没有工作lined up。”)”以及第二段“If someone as impressive as Peter had no job prospects, what would happen to me? (如果像彼得这样令人印象深刻的人都没有工作前景,我会怎么样?)”可知,彼得因为没有很好地建立人脉,所以还没有安排好工作,故lined up意为“安排”,与arranged意义相近。
【5题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“As the son of two immigrants, education was my ticket to success. I could not afford to waste this opportunity. (作为两个移民的儿子,教育是我成功的门票。我不能浪费这个机会。)”可知,作者高度重视教育。
【6题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段“I treated people as transactions (交易), only asking, “What can I get from them?” Networking became a “necessary evil”. (我将人们视为交易,只问:“我能从他们那里得到什么?”人际交往成了“必要的恶”。)”以及第六段“Instead of taking, invest in others, serve them, and connect them. Giving social capital doesn’t deplete (耗尽) it — it multiplies it. (与其索取,不如投资他人,服务他人,连接他人。给予社会资本不会耗尽它——它会成倍增加。)”可知,作者从把人际关系当作交易,转变为将其视为可以投资的关系。
【7题详解】
主旨大意题。根据全文内容,结合最后一段“It’s never too late to ask: “What can I give?” instead of “What can I get?”(问“我能给予什么?”而不是“我能得到什么?”永远都不晚。)”可知,文章主要讲述了作者对于人际交往观念的转变,从索取变为给予。因此“人际交往:给予而非索取”最适合作为本文标题。
C
For years, the US has been called a melting pot — a place where different individuals are mixed together. And the country’s food preferences show that.
Many Americans learn about and enjoy different cultures through food. One study shows Mexican food is the most popular ethnic (有民族特色的) food in the largest number of states. It is especially popular on the US West Coast. But Chinese food is the top ethnic food nationwide.
“Both cuisines (烹饪风格) have a rich history connected to the large immigrant (移民的) Chinese and Mexican populations in the US,” notes Georgie Mihaila. She is with a food-based blog called Chef’s Pencil. The website is the idea of professional chefs, who prepare meals for top restaurants. It uses information from search engine to identify the most popular ethnic food in the country.
Mihaila said as generations of immigrants settled in the US, they made their food more readily available and less costly. Thai, Korean, Vietnamese and Japanese restaurants are also gaining fans across the country. Their popularity is no accident, either. In 2002, for example, Thailand’s government started training chefs and sending them out to share their cuisine with the world. The aim of the “Global Thai” culinary diplomacy (外交) programme was to increase the number of Thai restaurants worldwide.
Millennials (千禧一代) are leading the push for more diverse food experiences. Millennials are now the nation’s largest age group. They are generally between the ages of 26 and 40. And they are likely to share their eating experiences on social media. “It’s not just about the food, but also the atmosphere, the culture, experiencing something fun and memorable,” Mihaila said. In general, she added, Americans are making more adventurous food choices.
Often, Chinese, Mexican and other ethnic food restaurants are less pricey than other eateries. But that is also changing. Mihaila said, “You have restaurants opening up across the country that are serving ethnic foods like Mexican, Thai or Indian, that are positioned to serve the upper end of the market.” Such businesses, she added, have seen great success.
8. What foreign food is the favourite in the most US states?
A. Chinese food. B. Thai food. C. Mexican food. D. Japanese food.
9. Why did Thailand start its culinary programme in 2002?
A. To train local chefs for top restaurants. B. To open more Thai restaurants globally.
C. To compete with Chinese cuisine. D. To reduce food prices in Thailand.
10. What can we learn about Millennials from the text?
A. They dislike traditional American food.
B. They prefer costly dining experiences.
C. They drive the demand for various food choices.
D. They seldom share food online.
11. What is the purpose of the text?
A. To advise readers to try foreign food.
B. To compare Chinese and Mexican food in America.
C. To show the importance of culinary diplomacy.
D. To introduce the popularity of diverse ethnic foods in the US.
【答案】8. C 9. B 10. C 11. D
【解析】
【导语】文章主要讲述美国作为大熔炉,各类民族特色美食深受欢迎,并分析其流行原因与消费群体特点。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“One study shows Mexican food is the most popular ethnic (有民族特色的) food in the largest number of states. (一项研究显示,墨西哥美食在最多的州里是最受欢迎的民族特色美食。)”可知,在最多州最受喜爱的外国食物是墨西哥菜。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段中“The aim of the “Global Thai” culinary diplomacy (外交) programme was to increase the number of Thai restaurants worldwide. (“全球泰国”美食外交项目的目的是在全球增加泰国餐厅的数量。)”可知,泰国启动该项目是为了在全球开设更多泰式餐厅。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据第五段中“Millennials (千禧一代) are leading the push for more diverse food experiences. (千禧一代正推动人们去体验更加多样化的美食。)”可知,千禧一代带动了人们对多样化美食选择的需求。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。通读全文,尤其是根据第一段中“For years, the US has been called a melting pot — a place where different individuals are mixed together. And the country’s food preferences show that. (多年来,美国被称作大熔炉,一个不同的人融合在一起的地方,该国的饮食偏好就体现了这一点。)”可知,文章旨在介绍在美国多元民族美食的流行情况。

A new study has found ozone (臭氧) pollutants in Earth’s lower atmosphere increased across the Northern Hemisphere over the past 20 years.
Ozone is a form of oxygen. In Earth’s upper atmosphere, it acts as a barrier to block harmful radiation from the sun. But closer to Earth’s surface, ozone is a common pollutant. At ground level, high levels of ozone can harm people’s lungs and damage plants.
A European research programme collected the data. The programme equips commercial aircraft with instruments to measure atmospheric conditions during flight.
The researchers used ozone observations from 60,000 flights worldwide. They centred on five areas of the Northern Hemisphere — the northeastern US, Germany, India, Southeast Asia and Northeast China and Korea. The Northern Hemisphere was studied because it contains a large percentage of the human population affected by air quality. The researchers did, however, report lower ground-level ozone in some areas, including North America and Europe. But they said those results were canceled out by increases in ozone higher up in the atmosphere.
Audrey Gaudel, the lead writer of the study, said the data collected by international aircraft was valuable in creating a clear picture of ozone levels over the Northern Hemisphere over long periods.
To explore what was causing the changes, the scientists examined levels of nitrogen oxides (氮氧化物). They are considered to be atmospheric pollutants often resulting from human activities.
The researchers used the aircraft data to create models to estimate how nitrogen oxide releases affected atmospheric conditions. The team said it found some of the sharpest increases in areas where ozone levels were once the lowest. These included Malaysia and Indonesia, as well as other parts of Southeast Asia, and India. Those areas had very low ozone values between 1994 and 2004, but very high levels in recent years, between 2011 and 2016.
Next, Gaudel said her team plans to take a closer look at ozone levels in the tropics (热带). She thinks Africa will be one area to watch as a possible “hot spot” of increasing pollutive releases in coming years.
12. How is the text mainly developed?
A. By giving examples and arguing. B. By raising questions and solving them.
C. By following time order and space order. D. By presenting facts and research results.
13. What do we know about the ozone changes in some areas?
A. Europe’s low-level ozone loss was balanced out by its upper-air ozone rise.
B. Ozone rose both near-ground and higher in North America.
C. India and Malaysia had top ozone levels from 1994 to 2004.
D. All Northern Hemisphere nations saw steady ozone growth.
14. What is Gaudel’s attitude towards the data got by aircraft?
A. Doubtful. B. Objective. C. Critical. D. Favourable.
15. What can we infer about the team’s future research?
A. It will focus on ozone in the tropics. B. It will stop studying nitrogen oxides.
C. It will prove Africa has no air pollution. D. It will cover all countries in Northern Hemisphere.
【答案】12. D 13. A 14. D 15. A
【解析】
【导语】文章主要讲述一项新研究发现北半球低层大气臭氧污染物 20 年间有所增加,并介绍研究数据、成因与后续研究计划。
【12题详解】
推理判断题。通读全文,尤其是第一段“A new study has found ozone (臭氧) pollutants in Earth’s lower atmosphere increased across the Northern Hemisphere over the past 20 years.(一项新研究发现,在过去 20 年里,北半球低层大气中的臭氧污染物有所增加)”可知,文章全程客观呈现臭氧污染的相关研究背景、数据采集方式、观测结果和后续规划,即通过呈现事实和研究成果发展文章的。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段中“The researchers did, however, report lower ground-level ozone in some areas, including North America and Europe. But they said those results were canceled out by increases in ozone higher up in the atmosphere.(不过研究人员报告,包括北美和欧洲在内部分地区近地面臭氧含量下降。但他们表示,大气高层臭氧的上升抵消了这一结果)”可知,欧洲低层臭氧的减少被高空臭氧增加所平衡。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据第五段中“Audrey Gaudel, the lead writer of the study, said the data collected by international aircraft was valuable in creating a clear picture of ozone levels over the Northern Hemisphere over long periods.(该研究的主要作者奥德丽・高德尔称,国际航班收集的数据有助于长期清晰掌握北半球臭氧水平情况)”可知,她对飞机采集的数据持赞同、支持的态度。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Next, Gaudel said her team plans to take a closer look at ozone levels in the tropics (热带).(接下来,高德尔表示她的团队计划进一步研究热带地区的臭氧水平)”可知,团队未来研究将聚焦热带地区臭氧。

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。
An Amazing Plant — The Bamboo
Bamboo is a remarkable plant. It is often mistaken for a tree. ____16____ There are around 1,000 species of bamboo worldwide. They thrive (茁壮成长) in tropical and subtropical regions, from China to Brazil. Its slender yet tough stems and evergreen leaves make it distinctive in forests and gardens.
Bamboo’s growth speed is incredible. That surprises people most. Some species grow over one metre a day in Japan. The fastest ones even reach a record of one metre per hour. Unlike trees, bamboo does not take decades to mature. It can reach full height in just two months. ____17____
Bamboo has another outstanding feature: its regenerative ability. When its stems are cut down, new shoots grow back quickly from the roots. This means it can be harvested continuously. ____18____ It is environmentally friendly and cost-effective. Its stems are tough yet flexible. They are tougher than wood from many strong trees.
This plant is highly versatile (多用途的). ____19____ It is used to build houses, bridges and furniture. In some medical fields, it even makes tiny surgical needles for sewing nerves. A Frenchman once built a bamboo airplane. He named it “Flyboo” and flew it. Moreover, it is the sole food source for giant pandas. Pandas are China’s beloved endangered species.
____20____ It symbolizes sustainability. It offers a low-carbon alternative to steel and concrete. In the future, this ancient grass will play a more important role. It will be part of our green life. It shows nature’s wisdom in adaptation and utility.
A. It has countless uses.
B. There is no need to replant it.
C. Bamboo is more than just a plant.
D. People use bamboo to build houses.
E. But it actually belongs to the grass family.
F. This makes it one of the fastest-growing plants on Earth.
G. It is well-known that bamboo shoots are a panda’s staple diet.
【答案】16. E 17. F 18. B 19. A 20. C
【解析】
【导语】文章介绍了竹子作为草本植物而非树木的特点、惊人的生长速度、可再生能力、极其广泛的用途,以及它在可持续发展中的重要意义。
【16题详解】
上文“Bamboo is a remarkable plant. It is often mistaken for a tree. (竹子是一种非凡的植物,常被误认为是树木。)”提到竹子常被误认为是树,下文“There are around 1,000 species of bamboo worldwide. They thrive (茁壮成长) in tropical and subtropical regions, from China to Brazil. (世界上大约有1000种竹子,它们茁壮生长在从中国到巴西的热带和亚热带地区。)”介绍竹子种类多、分布广,空处需要转折说明竹子的真实属性。因此E项“But it actually belongs to the grass family. (但它实际上属于禾本科植物。)”符合语境,引出下文对竹子的进一步介绍,其中的it指代上文的Bamboo。
【17题详解】
上文“Some species grow over one metre a day in Japan. The fastest ones even reach a record of one metre per hour. Unlike trees, bamboo does not take decades to mature. It can reach full height in just two months. (在日本,有些品种的竹子每天能生长超过一米。最快的甚至能达到每小时一米的纪录。与树木不同,竹子不需要几十年才能成熟,只需两个月就能长到全高。)”描述竹子生长速度惊人,成熟时间短,空处是段末句,应总结这一特点。因此F项“This makes it one of the fastest-growing plants on Earth. (这使它成为地球上生长最快的植物之一。)”符合语境,收束本段。
【18题详解】
上文“When its stems are cut down, new shoots grow back quickly from the roots. This means it can be harvested continuously. (当它的茎被砍掉时,新芽很快就会从根部长出来。这意味着可以持续不断地收获。)”描述竹子强大的再生能力,指出它可连续收获,空处应补充这种再生方式带来的好处,因此B项“There is no need to replant it. (不需要重新种植它。)”符合语境,承接上文。
【19题详解】
上文“This plant is highly versatile (多用途的). (这种植物用途非常广泛。)”指出竹子用途广泛,下文“It is used to build houses, bridges and furniture. In some medical fields, it even makes tiny surgical needles for sewing nerves. A Frenchman once built a bamboo airplane. (它被用来建造房屋、桥梁和家具。在某些医学领域,甚至用于制作缝合神经的微型手术针。一位法国人曾用竹子造出一架飞机。)”列举了建筑、医疗、航空等具体用途,空处应总起概括。因此A项“It has countless uses. (它有无数种用途。)”符合语境,是对“用途非常广泛”的具体说明,引出下文举例。
【20题详解】
下文“It symbolizes sustainability. It offers a low-carbon alternative to steel and concrete. In the future, this ancient grass will play a more important role. (它象征着可持续性,为钢铁和混凝土提供了低碳替代方案。将来,这种古老的草将发挥更重要的作用。)”讨论竹子的象征意义和未来价值,空处是段首句,应引出这一主题。因此C项“Bamboo is more than just a plant. (竹子不仅仅是一种植物。)”符合语境,点明竹子的超越性意义,统领下文。

【解析】
【导语】文章介绍了格陵兰岛的地理位置、冰盖覆盖、矿产资源及其开发受限的原因、战略重要性以及从历史殖民到现代自治的政治演变。
【36题详解】
考查连词。句意:格陵兰岛是世界上最大的岛屿,位于北冰洋和大西洋之间,地处加拿大以东、北美东北部,纬度从北纬77度到北纬59度,经度从西经11度到西经74度。结合“is located”可知,此处指“位于加拿大东部和北美东北部之间”,应用并列连词and连接两个表示方位的短语。
【37题详解】
考查动词时态、语态和主谓一致。句意:其表面超过80%被格陵兰冰盖覆盖,该冰盖是地球上第二大冰体。空处作句子的谓语,结合上一句可知,此处同样描述客观事实,时态应用一般现在时,cover“覆盖”和主语Over 80% of its surface之间是被动关系,应用被动语态,且主语Over 80% of its surface中surface是单数,be动词应用is。
【38题详解】
考查定语从句。句意:其表面超过80%被格陵兰冰盖覆盖,该冰盖是地球上第二大冰体。空处引导非限制性定语从句,对先行词the Greenland Ice Sheet作补充说明,先行词指物,在从句中作主语,应用关系代词which作引导词。
【39题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:它矿产资源丰富,拥有大量的稀土元素、锌、铅、金和铀,近海石油和天然气储量也已被发现。此处用了with的复合结构,空处作宾语补足语,find“发现”和offshore oil and gas reserves逻辑上是被动关系,所以用过去分词found。
【40题详解】
考查形容词。句意:然而,这些资源在很大程度上仍未开发,受到寒冷气候和严格的环境法规的影响。空处作定语修饰rules,应用形容词environmental,意为“环境的”。
【41题详解】
考查副词。句意:格陵兰岛在北极地区具有战略重要性,控制着包括西北航道在内的关键航运路线。空处修饰形容词important,应用副词strategically,意为“战略上”。
【42题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:只有当北极冰融化时,人们才能利用这条航道来缩短欧洲和亚洲之间的贸易路线。空处和to构成不定式,作目的状语,应用short的动词形式shorten“缩短”。
【43题详解】
考查动词时态。句意:历史上,由红发埃里克率领的北欧探险家在10世纪在此定居。空处作句子的谓语,根据“in the 10th century”可知,此处在叙述过去发生的事情,时态应用一般过去时,所以用过去式settled。
【44题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:后来,它先后受挪威和丹麦统治,并于1814年成为丹麦的殖民地。句子主干成分完整,空处为非谓语,become“成为”和it逻辑上是主动关系,所以用现在分词形式becoming,作状语。
【45题详解】
考查介词。句意:它于1979年获得自治权,并于2009年获得更多自治权,不过丹麦仍负责其国防、外交和货币。take charge of是固定短语,意为“负责”。

During a family trip to Sichuan, a woman named Li Ting and her family of four were trapped in a crowded tourist area. It was late afternoon, and they were tired and hungry after walking for hours in the warm weather. They searched for a long time but could not find a restaurant to eat, as most places were crowded with visitors and fully booked. Li Ting then walked to a nearby farmer’s house and offered 400 yuan for a simple home meal. To their great surprise, the farmer and his wife treated them with great kindness, cooking ten delicious dishes and sharing a bottle of wine with them.
When they returned to the hotel, Li Ting found a small note secretly put in her backpack. It said the money had been returned to her side pocket, and the meal was just a gift for new friendship. She was moved to tears at once. She and her husband agreed that they could not accept such kindness without doing anything in return.
The next morning, they went back to the farmer’s home and insisted on giving the money. The farmer refused again and again, but the couple kept asking politely. Finally he had to accept it but gave them a basket of fresh eggs and vegetables in return. On the way back, Li Ting learned that the couple had three young children and lived a simple life by growing crops and selling local products. She decided to help them from then on.
A month later, she sent warm winter clothes and useful school supplies to the family anonymously (匿名地). The two families kept in touch and exchanged gifts regularly. When they heard the farmer’s old house leaked badly on rainy days, they sent 5,000 yuan, telling a white lie that it was a poverty-relief fund from the company. They were worried that the family would not accept the money if they told the truth.

【答案】例文
The next year, Li Ting and her family visited Sichuan again. They stayed at the farmer’s house. They were happy to see the newly painted rooms and the firm repaired roof. The three children ran out happily, and the youngest one called her “Aunt” softly. The farmer told them he had started a small farmhouse business and his life had improved a lot. Before leaving, the farmer’s wife gave Li Ting a jar of homemade honey and several beautiful bamboo fans. These fans are light and special products of Sichuan.
As the car drove away slowly, the whole family stood at the road. They waved their hands until they could no longer be seen. Li Ting looked back again and again, with a warm feeling in her heart. After arriving home, Li Ting placed the yellowed note and the delicate bamboo fans in her drawer. She would take them out and look at them carefully, recalling the warm days in the mountain village and the sincere friendship between the two families. This true friendship has become the most beautiful memory in her life.

Introduction to English Dictionaries
Oxford English Dictionary (OED)
First published in 1884, edited by James Murray and a team of scholars. It’s well-known for its historical depth, tracing word origins and usage across centuries with 600,000+ entries. Regarded as the “gold standard” of English dictionaries, though its sheer size makes it less portable. The print version costs around $395, while the 12-month online subscription is $29.95, available via Oxford University Press’s official website or major book retailers like Amazon.
Cambridge Advanced Learner’s Dictionary (CALD)
Launched in 1995 by Cambridge University Press, tailored for non-native speakers. It features simple explanations, 14,000+ example sentences, and collocation guides. Widely acclaimed for supporting language learning, with regular updates to reflect modern English. The print edition is about $34.99, and the app subscription is $14.99 / year, accessible via Cambridge’s official store or Apple Books.
Merriam-Webster’s Collegiate Dictionary
Founded on Noah Webster’s 1828 “American Dictionary”, the first collegiate edition emerged in 1898. It prioritizes American English, offering clear definitions, current usage examples, and pronunciation guides. A staple in US classrooms and offices, praised for accessibility. Priced at approximately $24.99 (print) and $19.99 (e-book), it can be purchased from Merriam-Webster’s site, Barnes & Noble, or digital platforms like Kindle.
Collins English Dictionary
First released in 1979, compiled by Collins lexicographers. It stands out for its “word banks” and real-world usage focus, drawing on a 4.5-billion-word corpus. Praised for relevance to everyday English, though some critics note less historical detail than the OED. It retails (零售) for around $27.99 (print) and $17.99 (digital), available on Collins’ website, Walmart, or Google Play Books.
1. Which dictionary is most suitable for someone studying word collocations?

C. Cambridge Advanced Learner’s Dictionary. D. Collins English Dictionary.
2. What do some critics think of Collins English Dictionary?
A. It is too difficult for classroom use. B. It lacks enough historical details.
C. It updates too slowly. D. It has unclear pronunciation guides.
3. Which of the following is a common feature of the four dictionaries?
A. Being first published before 1900. B. Having over 600,000 entries.
C. Focusing on American English. D. Offering both print and digital versions.
B
When I was in graduate school, I admired a student named Peter. Smart, articulate and charming, Peter was the type of person I wanted to be like. One day in the library — his final quarter before graduation — I congratulated him. His reply shocked me: “I am excited, but I didn’t build my network well, so no jobs are lined up yet.”
His words terrified me. If someone as impressive as Peter had no job prospects, what would happen to me? As the son of two immigrants, education was my ticket to success. I could not afford to waste this opportunity. I found myself feeling anxious and fearful. I had to secure my career — finishing school without a job was too risky.
Then I recalled the repeated advice: “Network and build relationships. It’s who you know, not what you know.” They were right. Education wasn’t the highway to opportunity, just an on-ramp (入口匝道). The real highway was social capital — your network and the people who know you.
Determined, I spent all my free time building relationships with potential employers. It worked — internships and jobs opened up — but it felt wrong. I treated people as transactions (交易), only asking, “What can I get from them?” Networking became a “necessary evil”.
One day, I ran into a childhood friend at a café. He spent the whole time urging me to join his multi-level marketing scheme, promising I’d make enough money to quit working and support my parents — just by getting people to buy products they already needed.
That moment changed everything. I realized: if networking feels unpleasant, you’re doing it wrong. Relationships are like a garden — tend them well, and they’ll grow and bear more fruit than you can consume. Instead of taking, invest in others, serve them, and connect them. Giving social capital doesn’t deplete (耗尽) it — it multiplies it.
Becoming a generous relational investor is a lifestyle. So, what’s your approach? Are you a greedy consumer or a generous investor? It’s never too late to ask: “What can I give?” instead of “What can I get?”
4. What does the underlined phrase “lined up” in Paragraph 1 probably mean?
A. Arranged. B. Canceled. C. Changed. D. Forgotten.
5. What can be known about the author?
A. His parents were well-educated. B. He valued education highly.
C. He grew up in a wealthy family. D. His parents worked in marketing.
6. How did the author change in thinking about networking?
A. From believing “education is key” to “social capital is key”.
B. From viewing networking as “necessary” to “unnecessary”.
C. From treating others as “transactional partners” to “relational investees”.
D. From focusing on “meeting employers” to “helping friends”.
7. What is the best title for the text?
A. Education: A path to Success B. Networking: Give Rather Than Take
C. Job-Hunting: A Goal for Graduates D. Friendship: A Source of Suggestions
C
For years, the US has been called a melting pot — a place where different individuals are mixed together. And the country’s food preferences show that.
Many Americans learn about and enjoy different cultures through food. One study shows Mexican food is the most popular ethnic (有民族特色的) food in the largest number of states. It is especially popular on the US West Coast. But Chinese food is the top ethnic food nationwide.
“Both cuisines (烹饪风格) have a rich history connected to the large immigrant (移民的) Chinese and Mexican populations in the US,” notes Georgie Mihaila. She is with a food-based blog called Chef’s Pencil. The website is the idea of professional chefs, who prepare meals for top restaurants. It uses information from search engine to identify the most popular ethnic food in the country.
Mihaila said as generations of immigrants settled in the US, they made their food more readily available and less costly. Thai, Korean, Vietnamese and Japanese restaurants are also gaining fans across the country. Their popularity is no accident, either. In 2002, for example, Thailand’s government started training chefs and sending them out to share their cuisine with the world. The aim of the “Global Thai” culinary diplomacy (外交) programme was to increase the number of Thai restaurants worldwide.
Millennials (千禧一代) are leading the push for more diverse food experiences. Millennials are now the nation’s largest age group. They are generally between the ages of 26 and 40. And they are likely to share their eating experiences on social media. “It’s not just about the food, but also the atmosphere, the culture, experiencing something fun and memorable,” Mihaila said. In general, she added, Americans are making more adventurous food choices.
Often, Chinese, Mexican and other ethnic food restaurants are less pricey than other eateries. But that is also changing. Mihaila said, “You have restaurants opening up across the country that are serving ethnic foods like Mexican, Thai or Indian, that are positioned to serve the upper end of the market.” Such businesses, she added, have seen great success.
8. What foreign food is the favourite in the most US states?
A. Chinese food. B. Thai food. C. Mexican food. D. Japanese food.
9. Why did Thailand start its culinary programme in 2002?
A. To train local chefs for top restaurants. B. To open more Thai restaurants globally.
C. To compete with Chinese cuisine. D. To reduce food prices in Thailand.

A new study has found ozone (臭氧) pollutants in Earth’s lower atmosphere increased across the Northern Hemisphere over the past 20 years.
Ozone is a form of oxygen. In Earth’s upper atmosphere, it acts as a barrier to block harmful radiation from the sun. But closer to Earth’s surface, ozone is a common pollutant. At ground level, high levels of ozone can harm people’s lungs and damage plants.
A European research programme collected the data. The programme equips commercial aircraft with instruments to measure atmospheric conditions during flight.
The researchers used ozone observations from 60,000 flights worldwide. They centred on five areas of the Northern Hemisphere — the northeastern US, Germany, India, Southeast Asia and Northeast China and Korea. The Northern Hemisphere was studied because it contains a large percentage of the human population affected by air quality. The researchers did, however, report lower ground-level ozone in some areas, including North America and Europe. But they said those results were canceled out by increases in ozone higher up in the atmosphere.
Audrey Gaudel, the lead writer of the study, said the data collected by international aircraft was valuable in creating a clear picture of ozone levels over the Northern Hemisphere over long periods.
To explore what was causing the changes, the scientists examined levels of nitrogen oxides (氮氧化物). They are considered to be atmospheric pollutants often resulting from human activities.
The researchers used the aircraft data to create models to estimate how nitrogen oxide releases affected atmospheric conditions. The team said it found some of the sharpest increases in areas where ozone levels were once the lowest. These included Malaysia and Indonesia, as well as other parts of Southeast Asia, and India. Those areas had very low ozone values between 1994 and 2004, but very high levels in recent years, between 2011 and 2016.
Next, Gaudel said her team plans to take a closer look at ozone levels in the tropics (热带). She thinks Africa will be one area to watch as a possible “hot spot” of increasing pollutive releases in coming years.
12. How is the text mainly developed?
A. By giving examples and arguing. B. By raising questions and solving them.
C. By following time order and space order. D. By presenting facts and research results.
13. What do we know about the ozone changes in some areas?
A. Europe’s low-level ozone loss was balanced out by its upper-air ozone rise.
B. Ozone rose both near-ground and higher in North America.
C. India and Malaysia had top ozone levels from 1994 to 2004.
D. All Northern Hemisphere nations saw steady ozone growth.
14. What is Gaudel’s attitude towards the data got by aircraft?
A. Doubtful. B. Objective. C. Critical. D. Favourable.
15. What can we infer about the team’s future research?
A. It will focus on ozone in the tropics. B. It will stop studying nitrogen oxides.
C. It will prove Africa has no air pollution. D. It will cover all countries in Northern Hemisphere.

During a family trip to Sichuan, a woman named Li Ting and her family of four were trapped in a crowded tourist area. It was late afternoon, and they were tired and hungry after walking for hours in the warm weather. They searched for a long time but could not find a restaurant to eat, as most places were crowded with visitors and fully booked. Li Ting then walked to a nearby farmer’s house and offered 400 yuan for a simple home meal. To their great surprise, the farmer and his wife treated them with great kindness, cooking ten delicious dishes and sharing a bottle of wine with them.
When they returned to the hotel, Li Ting found a small note secretly put in her backpack. It said the money had been returned to her side pocket, and the meal was just a gift for new friendship. She was moved to tears at once. She and her husband agreed that they could not accept such kindness without doing anything in return.
The next morning, they went back to the farmer’s home and insisted on giving the money. The farmer refused again and again, but the couple kept asking politely. Finally he had to accept it but gave them a basket of fresh eggs and vegetables in return. On the way back, Li Ting learned that the couple had three young children and lived a simple life by growing crops and selling local products. She decided to help them from then on.
A month later, she sent warm winter clothes and useful school supplies to the family anonymously (匿名地). The two families kept in touch and exchanged gifts regularly. When they heard the farmer’s old house leaked badly on rainy days, they sent 5,000 yuan, telling a white lie that it was a poverty-relief fund from the company. They were worried that the family would not accept the money if they told the truth.
注意:
1.续写词数应为150个左右;

The next year, Li Ting and her family visited Sichuan again.
