My father was a self-taught mandolin (曼陀林琴) player. He could not read, but if he heard a tune (曲调) several times, he could play it. Dad loved playing the mandolin for his family. He knew we enjoyed his playing. If he could give 11 to others, he would do it, especially for his family. He always devoted his time and efforts to making sure his family had enough.
Later, I grew up and had my own children. Whenever I came home, I would ask Dad to play the mandolin. He could 12 your soul (内心) with tunes coming out of that old mandolin. He seemed to 13 when playing, taking pride in his ability to play so well.
Unluckily, in 1977, an accident happened to Dad, leaving his third finger of his left hand wounded seriously. 14 he didn’t lose enough of the finger to stop him from picking up anything, it did influence his 15 to play the mandolin. After the accident, he was 16 to play and felt unable to play as well as before. Every time we asked him to play, he would make excuses. 17 , we begged (恳求) him and he would say, “Okay.

【答案】
【导语】 本文讲述了作者父亲自学曼陀林琴,用音乐给家人带来欢乐,虽遭遇意外手指受 伤、身患重病,仍在生命最后为家人演奏,传递爱与温暖的感人故事。
【解析】11-15 AABAC 16-20. BABAD 21-25. DACAD
11.查名词辨析。句意:如果他能给别人带来快乐,他就会去做,尤其是为家人。前文提到父亲喜欢为家人演奏曼陀林,也知道家人喜欢他的演奏,说明他演奏的目的是给他人带来快乐。pleasure(快乐、愉悦)符合语境;advice(建议)、help(帮助)、wealth(财富)均与“演奏音乐给家人带来的感受”不匹配。
12.考查动词辨析。句意:他可以用那把旧曼陀林的曲调触动你的灵魂。此处描述父亲演奏的音乐对人的感染力,touch(触动、打动)可与 soul搭配,表示“触动内心”,符合语境。
13.考查动词辨析。句意:演奏时,他仿佛在发光,为自己能演奏得这么好而自豪。后文提到父亲为自己的演奏能力自豪,说明演奏时他状态极佳、神采奕奕。shine(发光、闪耀)符合语境;smile(微笑)、spin(旋转)、speak(说话)均无法体现“因自豪而神采飞扬”的状态。
14.考查连词辨析。句意:虽然他没有失去整根手指,不至于无法拿东西,但这确实影响了他演奏曼陀林的能力。前后句为转折关系:前半句说“手指没有严重到无法拿东西”,后半句说“影响了演奏”。Although(虽然)引导让步状语从句,符合逻辑;If(如果)、Whether(是否)、Because(因为)均不符合转折逻辑。
15.考查名词辨析。句意:虽然他没有失去整根手指,不至于无法拿东西,但这确实影响了他演奏曼陀林的能力。手指受伤会直接影响演奏的能力,ability(能力)符合语境;courage(勇气)、confidence(信心)、energy(精力)均不是手指受伤直接影响的核心要素。
16.考查形容词辨析。句意:事故后,他不愿意演奏,觉得自己再也弹不到以前的水平了。后文提到“每次我们让他演奏,他都会找借口”,说明他主观上不愿意演奏。unwilling(不愿意的)贴合“找借口推脱”的状态。
17.考查副词辨析。句意:最后,我们恳求他,他才会说:“好吧,但我按不住琴弦,弹不到以前的水平了。”前文说父亲一直找借口推脱,此处是经过多次恳求后,父亲最终同意演奏。Finally(最后、最终)符合“多次恳求后才同意”的逻辑。
18.考查名词辨析。句意:对家人来说,这没有任何区别。后文提到“当他演奏旧曼陀林时,会带我们回到欢乐的时光”,说明家人不在乎他弹得好不好,对家人而言没有差别。固定搭配 make no difference 表示“没有影响、没有差别”,difference 符合语境。
19.考查连词辨析。句意:他选择不接受任何化疗,这样他就能有尊严地度过余生。前半句“不接受化疗”是方式,后半句“有尊严地度过余生”是目的。so that(以便、为了)引导目的状语从句,符合目的逻辑。
20.考查名词辨析。句意:一开始他又像往常一样找借口,但后来同意了,可能意识到这或许是我们最后一次听他演奏的机会。前文提到父亲受伤后“每次我们让他演奏,他都会找借口”,此处是“像往常一样找借口”,excuse(借口)符合语境且符合前文的铺垫。
21.考查动词辨析。句意:一开始他又像往常一样找借口,但后来同意了,可能意识到这或许是我们最后一次听他演奏的机会。父亲身患重病,同意演奏是因为意识到这是最后一次机会。realizing(意识到)符合语境。
22.考查短语动词辨析。句意:环顾四周,我发现家里每个人都热泪盈眶。此处描述父亲演奏时自己的动作,Looking around(环顾四周)符合“看到家人都在流泪”的语境。
23.考查名词辨析。句意:我们看到面前有一个安静的人,他有一种内在的力量,这种力量与他生活在一起。父亲自学乐器、遭遇意外仍坚持、为家人演奏,体现的是内在的力量。strength(力量)可以体现父亲的品质。
24.考查名词辨析。句意:爸爸再也不会为我们弹奏曼陀林了,但我们仍然珍视从他那里获得的最珍贵的礼物——那就是他一生都在坚持的给予行为。父亲的音乐和爱是家人最珍贵的礼物,需要被珍视。treasure(珍视、珍藏) 贴合“珍贵礼物”的情感。
25.考查动词辨析。句意:爸爸再也不会为我们弹奏曼陀林了,但我们仍然珍视从他那里获得的最珍贵的礼物——那就是他一生都在坚持的给予行为。父亲一生为家人演奏、付出爱,核心是“给予”。giving(给予、付出)符合全文主旨。

Very often, when we see young people sitting there, looking at the screen of a mobile phone and smiling, we may think nothing is wrong. But when we come to the question “How much time do they actually spend on media (传播媒介) daily?”, the answer is surprising: young people spend about nine hours every day using media, and this only includes media used for enjoyment.
Today’s young people seem to have become crazy multi-taskers. They often use media when doing other
activities. Some watch TV when doing homework, some text (发短信), and some others listen to music. But what
do young people think of this? A research showed that two thirds of them believed watching TV or texting had no
influence on their schoolwork. Half of them thought using social media made no difference. However, researches
have given a different answer: “media multi-taskers” did worse in tests.
Scientists did a research among more than 400 students. It shows that those who text a lot have more trouble
sleeping and do worse in their study. In another research, students who didn’t text during a lesson took down a lot
more notes than those who were texting. A similar research also found that students who texted when doing
schoolwork had lower grades. According to a research, if a kid uses social media a lot, especially at night, he or she
will sleep worse and feel more nervous and depressed (消沉的). On the one hand, young people stay up late to
check messages and information. They may also be woken up by messages they receive. On the other hand, even
the light from a screen could influence their sleep. Some other researches also show that children who use media at
night go to bed later, get fewer hours of sleep each week, and become sleepy more easily during the daytime.
29.According to the article, young people use media for about ___________ every week.
A.55 hours B.65 hours C.75 hours D.85 hours
30.The underlined word “multi-taskers” in Paragraph 2 refers to people who __________.
A.ask a lot of questions B.use different media for learning
C.have several mobile phones D.do several tasks at the same time
31.Which of the following statements about using media is TRUE?
A.People only use media for enjoyment.
B.Most multi-taskers believed it had a bad influence on them.
C.The results of researches on it are different from young people’s thoughts.
D.Students like to use media to help take more notes during a lesson.
32.What is the article mainly about?
A.Social media is very popular among young people.
B.Using media too much has a bad influence on young people.
C.The use of social media has both advantages and disadvantages.
D.Mobile phones are the main tools students use for school learning.
【答案】29.B 30.D 31.C 32.B
【解析】
【导语】本文讲述年轻人每天约花 9 小时使用娱乐媒体,常同时处理多项任务(如边写作业边看电视),但
研究表明这种多任务处理会降低学习效率、影响睡眠和情绪。
29.细节理解题。根据“young people spend about nine hours every day using media”可知,年轻人每天使用媒
体约 9 小时,每周约 63 小时(9×7),最接近 65 小时,故选 B。
30.词句猜测题。根据“They often use media when doing other activities…watch TV when doing homework, text, listen to music”可知,“multi-taskers”指同时处理多项任务的人,故选 D。
31.细节理解题。根据“two thirds of them believed…had no influence…However, researches…did worse in tests”
可知,研究结果与年轻人的看法不同,故选 C。
32.主旨大意题。全文通过研究数据说明过度使用媒体对年轻人的学习、睡眠和情绪有负面影响,故选 B。
C
Have we ever thought what we read for, information or skills? How do we feel when we read, excited or upset? We read word by word aloud and think about them. Is that enough? I think reading is more than pronouncing or thinking about words.
The Reader, a very popular program, is staged in the form of reading. It’s a national reading program, Dong Qing works as both a hostess and a producer. The Reader hopes to tell us what the world is and it takes us to see the beautiful world by reading. The show has invited some influential guests who have rich experiences and touching stories.

Parents are often surprised at their children’s ability to use technology. A five-year-old child may easily find and use apps on a smartphone. A ten-year-old child can move up through the levels of a video game easily. Their parents may think their children were born geniuses (天才).
Natural geniuses, however, are not common. But your parents are right if they think you are smarter than them. Most children are born smarter than their parents. This has been proved on IQ tests around the world recently. These tests have shown that over the last 100 years, new generation (代) has become smarter than the older ones. In other words, you are smarter than your parents and your parents are smarter than your grandparents.
This increase (增长) in intelligence is called the “Flynn Effect” (弗林效应). It was named after James Flynn. Flynn is a university professor in New Zealand. He first noticed this in 1980. According to his research, with each new generation, average IQ scores would increase by 20 percent.
But why are people getting smarter? Flynn and many other researchers believe this has something to do with technology (技术). New technologies have further developed our brains. They have made us think better. So we may be better at completing the missing parts of a puzzle (拼图) than our parents.
But being smart doesn’t make you wise. Wisdom comes with age and experience. A high score in a computer game will not help you solve the everyday problems of life. For that, a smart kid will turn to the wisdom of his parents and grandparents.
37.How do parents often feel about their children’s ability to use technology?
A.Surprised. B.Worried. C.Nervous. D.Embarrassed.
38.What has been proved on IQ tests around the world these days?
A.Children easily use apps on smartphones.
B.Most children play video games better than their parents.
C.Children are born with a high IQ.
D.Most children are born smarter than their parents.
39.What caused the “Flynn Effect” according to the passage?
A.Better education. B.New technologies.
C.A better environment. D.New experiences.
40.The following facts show the “Flynn Effect” EXCEPT________.
A.a child may easily find apps on a smartphone
B.a child may be good at completing the missing parts of a puzzle.
C.a high score in a video game won’t help solve the problems in life
D.a ten-year-old child can move up through the levels of a video game easily
【答案】37.A 38.D 39.B 40.C
【解析】
【导语】本文主要介绍了“弗林效应”,即新一代人比上一代人更聪明的现象,并探讨了技术进步对智力发展的影响,同时指出智慧与年龄和经验相关。
37.细节理解题。根据“Parents are often surprised at their children’s ability to use technology.”可知,父母经常对孩子使用技术的能力感到惊讶。故选A。
38.细节理解题。根据“Most children are born smarter than their parents.”可知,大多数孩子天生就比他们的父母聪明。故选D。
39.细节理解题。根据“Flynn and many other researchers believe this has something to do with technology. New technologies have further developed our brains.”可知,弗林和许多其他研究人员认为这与技术有关,新技术进一步发展了我们的大脑。故选B。
40.推理判断题。根据“This increase in intelligence is called the ‘Flynn Effect’.”可知,弗林效应指新一代智商测试分数更高。选项C意为“电脑游戏中的高分并不能帮助你解决日常生活中的问题。”。这是在区分“聪明”(智商)和“智慧”(经验),并非弗林效应的体现(弗林效应只关于智商提升)。故选C。
B) 阅读下面短文,从短文后所给的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项,使短文通顺、连贯、意思完整。选项中有两项为多余选项。

【解析】
【导语】本文介绍了音乐在我们生活中的重要地位,讲述了作者对音乐态度的转变,阐述了音乐调节情绪、跨越语言沟通、丰富生活等诸多作用。
51.句意:音乐在我们的生活中扮演着重要角色。play an important role in ... 在 ... 中扮演重要角色,起着重要作用,是固定搭配,故填an。
52.句意:我过去不喜欢音乐。“used to do sth.”为固定搭配,表示“过去常常做某事”,其后接动词原形,否定形式为“used to not do sth.”,故填like。
53.句意:当我完成学习后,我喜欢听轻音乐。“enjoy doing sth.”为固定搭配,表示“喜欢做某事”,其后接动名词作宾语,故填listening。
54.句意:如果你感到压力大,轻柔的音乐会让你平静下来。本句为if引导的条件状语从句,遵循“主将从现”的规则,从句为一般现在时,主句用一般将来时,题目中已有will,故填make。
55.句意:每年都会创作许多优美的歌曲。主语“Many beautiful songs”和动词create为被动关系,且“every year”表示经常性动作,应用一般现在时的被动语态,故填are created。
56.句意:音乐也是一种很好的沟通方式。“a way to do sth.”为固定搭配,表示“做某事的方式”,动词不定式作后置定语,故填 communicate。
57.句意:我相信音乐一定是无尽的宝藏。情态动词must后接动词原形,为固定用法,故填be。
58.句意:它教会我们珍惜生活,带给我们快乐。“teach sb. to do sth.”为固定搭配,表示“教某人做某事”,其后接动词不定式,故填value。
59.句意:没有什么可以取代音乐。“take the place of”为固定短语,表示“取代、代替”,故填of。
60.句意:让我们感受节奏,享受我们丰富多彩的生活。空后为名词life,需要形容词性物主代词修饰名词,主格we对应的形容词性物主代词为our。
五、任务型阅读(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)
阅读短文,根据短文内容回答问题。
For many Chinese people, Lantern Festival, which fell on Feb.15, 2022, marks an end to two weeks of the Lunar (农历) New Year. For folk artist Wang De, it is also the busiest, best time for him to show his craft (手艺) creating molten (熔化的) iron fireworks.
Wang, who is a blacksmith (铁匠) of the 500-year-old art of dashuhua, which means “creating tree flowers”, lives in Yuxian County in the city of Zhangjiakou, North China’s Hebei Province.
To create molten iron fireworks, scrap iron (铁屑) is melted to 1,600℃ and thrown against a cold wall to blinding effect.
Wang, 58, and his assistants put on over a dozen dashuhua shows for local people and tourists as part of the Spring Festival activities each year. The folk artist hopes the tradition can bring more visitors to his hometown of Zhangjiakou, which caught international attention.
Dashuhua is a traditional form of fireworks show that takes place during certain festivals. In ancient times, this was a show that only those people with wealth and high social positions could afford. There are only four people left in China who have mastered (掌握) the ancient practice, and three of them are not young, according to local media reports.
Because of the risk of the show, it’s easy for dashuhua artists to get hurt when they are giving shows. And the high-risk tradition is still only kept for the brave. During a show a few years ago, Wang got serious burns on his leg and it took two months to recover (恢复).
Both Wang’s father and grandfather were blacksmiths. “I learned the craft from my father. When I was young, I thought it was exciting. But years later I also felt it was my duty (责任) to pass it on to the next generation (代),” he says.
61.What does dashuhua mean?
62.During which festival do Wang and his assistants give dashuhua shows every year?
63.Who could afford dashuhua shows in ancient times?
64.Are dashuhua shows very dangerous?
65.How do you think Wang will pass his craft on to the next generation from the last paragraph?
【答案】
61.(It means) Creating tree flowers.
62.(During) The Spring Festival.
63.The people with wealth and high social positions.
64.Yes. /Yes, they are.
65.By teaching young people (his craft)./ By teaching young people how to create dashuhua./ By asking young people to learn from him.
【解析】
【导语】本文主要介绍了“打树花”表演艺人王德的故事。
61.根据“Wang, who is a blacksmith (铁匠) of the 500-year-old art of dashuhua, which means ‘creating tree flowers’ ”可知“dashuhua”就是创造树花的意思,故填(It means) Creating tree flowers.
62.根据“Wang, 58, and his assistants put on over a dozen dashuhua shows for local people and tourists as part of the Spring Festival activities each year.”可知春节期间他们打树花表演,故填(During) The Spring Festival.
63.根据“In ancient times, this was a show that only those people with wealth and high social positions could afford. ”可知在古代这是那些有钱、社会地位高的人才能负担得起的秀,故填The people with wealth and high social positions.
64.根据“Because of the risk of the show, it’s easy for dashuhua artists to get hurt when they are giving shows.”可知打树花很危险,此处要进行肯定回答。故填Yes. /Yes, they are.
65.开放性作答,结合实际,言之有理即可。参考答案为By teaching young people (his craft)./ By teaching young people how to create dashuhua./ By asking young people to learn from him.

Very often, when we see young people sitting there, looking at the screen of a mobile phone and smiling, we may think nothing is wrong. But when we come to the question “How much time do they actually spend on media (传播媒介) daily?”, the answer is surprising: young people spend about nine hours every day using media, and this only includes media used for enjoyment.
Today’s young people seem to have become crazy multi-taskers. They often use media when doing other
activities. Some watch TV when doing homework, some text (发短信), and some others listen to music. But what
do young people think of this? A research showed that two thirds of them believed watching TV or texting had no
influence on their schoolwork. Half of them thought using social media made no difference. However, researches
have given a different answer: “media multi-taskers” did worse in tests.
Scientists did a research among more than 400 students. It shows that those who text a lot have more trouble
sleeping and do worse in their study. In another research, students who didn’t text during a lesson took down a lot
more notes than those who were texting. A similar research also found that students who texted when doing
schoolwork had lower grades. According to a research, if a kid uses social media a lot, especially at night, he or she
will sleep worse and feel more nervous and depressed (消沉的). On the one hand, young people stay up late to
check messages and information. They may also be woken up by messages they receive. On the other hand, even
the light from a screen could influence their sleep. Some other researches also show that children who use media at
night go to bed later, get fewer hours of sleep each week, and become sleepy more easily during the daytime.
29.According to the article, young people use media for about ___________ every week.
A.55 hours B.65 hours C.75 hours D.85 hours
30.The underlined word “multi-taskers” in Paragraph 2 refers to people who __________.
A.ask a lot of questions B.use different media for learning
C.have several mobile phones D.do several tasks at the same time
31.Which of the following statements about using media is TRUE?
A.People only use media for enjoyment.
B.Most multi-taskers believed it had a bad influence on them.
C.The results of researches on it are different from young people’s thoughts.
D.Students like to use media to help take more notes during a lesson.
32.What is the article mainly about?
A.Social media is very popular among young people.
B.Using media too much has a bad influence on young people.
C.The use of social media has both advantages and disadvantages.
D.Mobile phones are the main tools students use for school learning.
C
Have we ever thought what we read for, information or skills? How do we feel when we read, excited or upset? We read word by word aloud and think about them. Is that enough? I think reading is more than pronouncing or thinking about words.
The Reader, a very popular program, is staged in the form of reading. It’s a national reading program, Dong Qing works as both a hostess and a producer. The Reader hopes to tell us what the world is and it takes us to see the beautiful world by reading. The show has invited some influential guests who have rich experiences and touching stories.
“Reading touches people’s hearts” is the slogan (口号) of The Reader. What it wants to present isn’t reading skills but real feelings. They are what touches the audience most.
The Reader is of great importance to the audience and Chinese culture. It also tells us if we keep our mind on what we are reading, we’ll know what reading really is and we’ll become better readers.
33.The underlined word “influential” means “________” here in Chinese.
A.无人知晓的 B.有影响力的
C.大公无私的 D.能歌善舞的
34.The Reader wants to present ________ to its audience.
A.reading skills B.real feelings
C.rich experiences D.touching stories
35.By reading, we can ________.
A.know what the world is B.see the beautiful world
C.become better readers D.all of the above
36.Which of the following statements about The Reader is TRUE?

C.It is very important to the audience and Chinese culture.

Parents are often surprised at their children’s ability to use technology. A five-year-old child may easily find and use apps on a smartphone. A ten-year-old child can move up through the levels of a video game easily. Their parents may think their children were born geniuses (天才).
Natural geniuses, however, are not common. But your parents are right if they think you are smarter than them. Most children are born smarter than their parents. This has been proved on IQ tests around the world recently. These tests have shown that over the last 100 years, new generation (代) has become smarter than the older ones. In other words, you are smarter than your parents and your parents are smarter than your grandparents.
This increase (增长) in intelligence is called the “Flynn Effect” (弗林效应). It was named after James Flynn. Flynn is a university professor in New Zealand. He first noticed this in 1980. According to his research, with each new generation, average IQ scores would increase by 20 percent.
But why are people getting smarter? Flynn and many other researchers believe this has something to do with technology (技术). New technologies have further developed our brains. They have made us think better. So we may be better at completing the missing parts of a puzzle (拼图) than our parents.
But being smart doesn’t make you wise. Wisdom comes with age and experience. A high score in a computer game will not help you solve the everyday problems of life. For that, a smart kid will turn to the wisdom of his parents and grandparents.
37.How do parents often feel about their children’s ability to use technology?
A.Surprised. B.Worried. C.Nervous. D.Embarrassed.
38.What has been proved on IQ tests around the world these days?
A.Children easily use apps on smartphones.
B.Most children play video games better than their parents.
C.Children are born with a high IQ.
D.Most children are born smarter than their parents.
39.What caused the “Flynn Effect” according to the passage?
A.Better education. B.New technologies.
C.A better environment. D.New experiences.
40.The following facts show the “Flynn Effect” EXCEPT________.
A.a child may easily find apps on a smartphone
B.a child may be good at completing the missing parts of a puzzle.
C.a high score in a video game won’t help solve the problems in life
D.a ten-year-old child can move up through the levels of a video game easily

For many Chinese people, Lantern Festival, which fell on Feb.15, 2022, marks an end to two weeks of the Lunar (农历) New Year. For folk artist Wang De, it is also the busiest, best time for him to show his craft (手艺) creating molten (熔化的) iron fireworks.
Wang, who is a blacksmith (铁匠) of the 500-year-old art of dashuhua, which means “creating tree flowers”, lives in Yuxian County in the city of Zhangjiakou, North China’s Hebei Province.
To create molten iron fireworks, scrap iron (铁屑) is melted to 1,600℃ and thrown against a cold wall to blinding effect.
Wang, 58, and his assistants put on over a dozen dashuhua shows for local people and tourists as part of the Spring Festival activities each year. The folk artist hopes the tradition can bring more visitors to his hometown of Zhangjiakou, which caught international attention.
Dashuhua is a traditional form of fireworks show that takes place during certain festivals. In ancient times, this was a show that only those people with wealth and high social positions could afford. There are only four people left in China who have mastered (掌握) the ancient practice, and three of them are not young, according to local media reports.
Because of the risk of the show, it’s easy for dashuhua artists to get hurt when they are giving shows. And the high-risk tradition is still only kept for the brave. During a show a few years ago, Wang got serious burns on his leg and it took two months to recover (恢复).
Both Wang’s father and grandfather were blacksmiths. “I learned the craft from my father. When I was young, I thought it was exciting. But years later I also felt it was my duty (责任) to pass it on to the next generation (代),” he says.
61.What does dashuhua mean?
62.During which festival do Wang and his assistants give dashuhua shows every year?
63.Who could afford dashuhua shows in ancient times?
64.Are dashuhua shows very dangerous?

Very often, when we see young people sitting there, looking at the screen of a mobile phone and smiling, we may think nothing is wrong. But when we come to the question “How much time do they actually spend on media (传播媒介) daily?”, the answer is surprising: young people spend about nine hours every day using media, and this only includes media used for enjoyment.
Today’s young people seem to have become crazy multi-taskers. They often use media when doing other
activities. Some watch TV when doing homework, some text (发短信), and some others listen to music. But what
do young people think of this? A research showed that two thirds of them believed watching TV or texting had no
influence on their schoolwork. Half of them thought using social media made no difference. However, researches
have given a different answer: “media multi-taskers” did worse in tests.
Scientists did a research among more than 400 students. It shows that those who text a lot have more trouble
sleeping and do worse in their study. In another research, students who didn’t text during a lesson took down a lot
more notes than those who were texting. A similar research also found that students who texted when doing
schoolwork had lower grades. According to a research, if a kid uses social media a lot, especially at night, he or she
will sleep worse and feel more nervous and depressed (消沉的). On the one hand, young people stay up late to
check messages and information. They may also be woken up by messages they receive. On the other hand, even
the light from a screen could influence their sleep. Some other researches also show that children who use media at
night go to bed later, get fewer hours of sleep each week, and become sleepy more easily during the daytime.
29.According to the article, young people use media for about ___________ every week.
A.55 hours B.65 hours C.75 hours D.85 hours
30.The underlined word “multi-taskers” in Paragraph 2 refers to people who __________.
A.ask a lot of questions B.use different media for learning
C.have several mobile phones D.do several tasks at the same time
31.Which of the following statements about using media is TRUE?
A.People only use media for enjoyment.
B.Most multi-taskers believed it had a bad influence on them.
C.The results of researches on it are different from young people’s thoughts.
D.Students like to use media to help take more notes during a lesson.
32.What is the article mainly about?
A.Social media is very popular among young people.
B.Using media too much has a bad influence on young people.
C.The use of social media has both advantages and disadvantages.
D.Mobile phones are the main tools students use for school learning.
C
Have we ever thought what we read for, information or skills? How do we feel when we read, excited or upset? We read word by word aloud and think about them. Is that enough? I think reading is more than pronouncing or thinking about words.
The Reader, a very popular program, is staged in the form of reading. It’s a national reading program, Dong Qing works as both a hostess and a producer. The Reader hopes to tell us what the world is and it takes us to see the beautiful world by reading. The show has invited some influential guests who have rich experiences and touching stories.
“Reading touches people’s hearts” is the slogan (口号) of The Reader. What it wants to present isn’t reading skills but real feelings. They are what touches the audience most.
The Reader is of great importance to the audience and Chinese culture. It also tells us if we keep our mind on what we are reading, we’ll know what reading really is and we’ll become better readers.
33.The underlined word “influential” means “________” here in Chinese.
A.无人知晓的 B.有影响力的
C.大公无私的 D.能歌善舞的
34.The Reader wants to present ________ to its audience.
A.reading skills B.real feelings
C.rich experiences D.touching stories
35.By reading, we can ________.
A.know what the world is B.see the beautiful world
C.become better readers D.all of the above
36.Which of the following statements about The Reader is TRUE?
A.Dong Qing works as not only a hostess but also a storyteller.
B.Its slogan is “Listening touches people’s hearts”.
C.It is very important to the audience and Chinese culture.

Parents are often surprised at their children’s ability to use technology. A five-year-old child may easily find and use apps on a smartphone. A ten-year-old child can move up through the levels of a video game easily. Their parents may think their children were born geniuses (天才).
Natural geniuses, however, are not common. But your parents are right if they think you are smarter than them. Most children are born smarter than their parents. This has been proved on IQ tests around the world recently. These tests have shown that over the last 100 years, new generation (代) has become smarter than the older ones. In other words, you are smarter than your parents and your parents are smarter than your grandparents.
This increase (增长) in intelligence is called the “Flynn Effect” (弗林效应). It was named after James Flynn. Flynn is a university professor in New Zealand. He first noticed this in 1980. According to his research, with each new generation, average IQ scores would increase by 20 percent.
But why are people getting smarter? Flynn and many other researchers believe this has something to do with technology (技术). New technologies have further developed our brains. They have made us think better. So we may be better at completing the missing parts of a puzzle (拼图) than our parents.
But being smart doesn’t make you wise. Wisdom comes with age and experience. A high score in a computer game will not help you solve the everyday problems of life. For that, a smart kid will turn to the wisdom of his parents and grandparents.
37.How do parents often feel about their children’s ability to use technology?
A.Surprised. B.Worried. C.Nervous. D.Embarrassed.
38.What has been proved on IQ tests around the world these days?
A.Children easily use apps on smartphones.
B.Most children play video games better than their parents.
C.Children are born with a high IQ.
D.Most children are born smarter than their parents.
39.What caused the “Flynn Effect” according to the passage?
A.Better education. B.New technologies.
C.A better environment. D.New experiences.
40.The following facts show the “Flynn Effect” EXCEPT________.
A.a child may easily find apps on a smartphone
B.a child may be good at completing the missing parts of a puzzle.
C.a high score in a video game won’t help solve the problems in life
D.a ten-year-old child can move up through the levels of a video game easily

For many Chinese people, Lantern Festival, which fell on Feb.15, 2022, marks an end to two weeks of the Lunar (农历) New Year. For folk artist Wang De, it is also the busiest, best time for him to show his craft (手艺) creating molten (熔化的) iron fireworks.
Wang, who is a blacksmith (铁匠) of the 500-year-old art of dashuhua, which means “creating tree flowers”, lives in Yuxian County in the city of Zhangjiakou, North China’s Hebei Province.
To create molten iron fireworks, scrap iron (铁屑) is melted to 1,600℃ and thrown against a cold wall to blinding effect.
Wang, 58, and his assistants put on over a dozen dashuhua shows for local people and tourists as part of the Spring Festival activities each year. The folk artist hopes the tradition can bring more visitors to his hometown of Zhangjiakou, which caught international attention.
Dashuhua is a traditional form of fireworks show that takes place during certain festivals. In ancient times, this was a show that only those people with wealth and high social positions could afford. There are only four people left in China who have mastered (掌握) the ancient practice, and three of them are not young, according to local media reports.
Because of the risk of the show, it’s easy for dashuhua artists to get hurt when they are giving shows. And the high-risk tradition is still only kept for the brave. During a show a few years ago, Wang got serious burns on his leg and it took two months to recover (恢复).
Both Wang’s father and grandfather were blacksmiths. “I learned the craft from my father. When I was young, I thought it was exciting. But years later I also felt it was my duty (责任) to pass it on to the next generation (代),” he says.
61.What does dashuhua mean?
62.During which festival do Wang and his assistants give dashuhua shows every year?
63.Who could afford dashuhua shows in ancient times?
64.Are dashuhua shows very dangerous?
65.How do you think Wang will pass his craft on to the next generation from the last paragraph?
