There are some differences between American English and British English. Some differences are quite interesting.
When my friend Lily from London used the word “larder”, I didn’t know what it meant. Realizing I didn’t follow her, she used another word. I finally knew she wanted to find something to keep some food. The next word came up when we were planning a lunch date. She jotted down the date and time in her diary, while I marked my calendar. If she called me on the phone, she would ring me up. But if the line was busy, she would say the line was engaged.
Most times, I can know what Lily means. Last week, she regretted sending her boys to watch an early morning tennis game without their fleeces. I thought that she meant without their jackets or something like that. Other times, we have to ask each other. She recently told me a funny tale about a pissed woman. I wondered what had made the lady angry. It turns out that pissed means drunk.
Here is one more example. My British friend Jane was filling out a ticket at the grocery store recently. She asked the young man to help her if he had a rubber. When she noticed he didn’t follow her, she quickly asked for an eraser, which, in England, is often called a rubber.
In order to communicate well with British people, we Americans should learn some words that the British use differently. And I think people who learn English as a second language should also realize that there are differences between American English and British English.
4. When Lily used the word “larder”, she was probably looking for a ________.
A. greenhouse B. foodstuff C. cupboard D. cookbook
5. According to the passage, in British English ________.
A. the word “pissed” means angry B. the word “jacket” is often used
C. the word “engaged” means tired D. the word “rubber” means eraser
6. What does the underlined phrase “jotted down” in Pargraph 2 mean?
A. Wrote down B. Cared about C. Looked for D. Settled down
7. What is the passage mainly about?
A. The British way of using words.
B. Some new words the writer’s British friends taught her.
C. The reasons why Americans can’t follow the British at times.
D. Some words used differently in British English and American English.
C
Some people think going to the gym takes time and effort, it often hurts, and it can be extremely boring.Most weight-related exercises are a combination of sets and reps(几次几组).In order to see any significant change from any one exercise,it will probably need to be repeated six to eight times, for a minimum of three sets, for about three months: Then there' s aerobics(有氧运动).For some, there's nothing more boring than endless miles spent running on a treadmill(跑步机).
But what if there is a way to reduce the boredom of exercise while still getting a good workout? Luckily for us, there’s virtual reality (VR).
“In the past, playing video games was a sedentary(久坐不动的) experience:,"says Jo Stauffer of the VR Heaitn-institute, but VR changes all of that.” Many, VR games are played while standing In order to play properly, the players are forced to move around swinging their arms or using their legs.After an hour of this on a regular enough basis, it's not surprising, that many people unexpectedly find themselves a little fitter .There are already a number of virtual reality games which, deliberately or not, result in their player “getting a good sweat on” if played for enough time.For example, there's a music game which forces players to shadow box(做空拳攻防练习) in order to hit the notes---that's an upper-body workout.
The benefit of VR has been noticed by one company.They want to take the whole experience into the gym. They are making a resistance machine, designed to be used in combination with a VR headset. Players challenge a virtual competitor in a series of games,which results in a 30-minute full-body workout.However, the cost of the equipment is expensive and there are safety concerns to be worked out, says J.P.Gownder from the consultancy Forrester.
Although it's early days, for those: of us who struggle to overcome the boredom of exercise,a new solution could be coming.And a world where a person can exercise and have fun at the same time might be something that many people would want-virtual or not.So don' t give up exercising.
8. What conclusion can we draw from the first paragraph?
A. Most weight-related exercises nearly have no effect.
B. Some people think exercising in the gym is difficult and tiring.
C. Running on a treadmill wont bring significant change.
D. You'd better not go to the gym because of the risk of injury.
9. Compared with video games, VR games____________.
A. bring more fun to play.
B. take people less free time.
C. are more likely to bring players health benefits.
D. are more popular with people nowadays .
10. What can we know about the resistance machine?
A. It has been widely used in the gym.
B. There are some disadvantages of it.
C. J.P. Gownder highly recommends it.
D. When using it, people need to have a partner.
11. Which is the best title for the passage?
A. Virtual exercise in the gym. B. Keep going to the gym
C. The boredom of exercise D. The popularity of VR games.
D
An Internet game — Stardew Valley — has gone viral and become a heated issue by becoming the number one choice for teenagers in the world to play.
The main character is a young farmer and the story is about escape to the country life, making the popularity of the game all the more surprising. The game is calm and relaxing and really the opposite to city life. It describes the countryside as a beautiful and peaceful place and its people as very caring and happy.
The game developer believes that this is what young people desire today. He says the success of the Internet game is because teenagers want a happier and healthier life away from the pressures of deadlines and exams. He figures this game offers a form of escape from their fast and stressful lives.
Despite this, many parents and teachers are worried about the effect this game is having on young people. Parents report that their children are just playing this game and neglecting everything else, using Stardew Valley as an excuse for not completing homework, or refusing to revise for exams, citing a need for a happier and less stressful life.
One father, Paul McGregor, said his daughter Charlotte had changed a lot. He said, “She used to be in the school athletics team and loved the marathon, but now she only wants to play the game Stardew Valley and has been dropped from the team. She no longer completes her homework saying it doesn’t matter as she just wants to ‘escape to a new life’”.
Dr. Elisa Carhart, an expert in child mental health, says that Internet can literally influence young people’s decisions in life, but believes that if a young person reacts as strongly as Charlotte, it’s likely that there are other reasons for the change in her behaviour.
12. Why is the Internet game — Stardew Valley so popular with teenagers?
A. Because the main character is a farmer.
B. Because the game describes the countryside as a peaceful place.
C. Because it can provide teenagers with an escape from pressures.
D. Because in the game people are caring and happy.
13. Which is closest in meaning to “neglecting” in paragraph 4?
A. Paying no attention to. B. Making the most of.
C. Feeling at home with. D. Complaining about.
14. What is probably Paul McGregor’s attitude towards the Stardew Valley?
A. Opposed. B. Supportive. C. Indifferent. D. Tolerant.
15. What can we learn from Dr. Elisa Carhart’s words?
A. Well begun is half done.
B. One man’s meat is another man’s poison.
C. Be a rainbow in somebody else’s cloud.
D. Do not throw the baby out with the bathwater.

I thought that she meant without their jackets or something like that. Other times, we have to ask each other. She recently told me a funny tale about a pissed woman. I wondered what had made the lady angry. It turns out that pissed means drunk.
Here is one more example. My British friend Jane was filling out a ticket at the grocery store recently. She asked the young man to help her if he had a rubber. When she noticed he didn’t follow her, she quickly asked for an eraser, which, in England, is often called a rubber.
In order to communicate well with British people, we Americans should learn some words that the British use differently. And I think people who learn English as a second language should also realize that there are differences between American English and British English.
4. When Lily used the word “larder”, she was probably looking for a ________.
A. greenhouse B. foodstuff C. cupboard D. cookbook
5. According to the passage, in British English ________.
A. the word “pissed” means angry B. the word “jacket” is often used
C. the word “engaged” means tired D. the word “rubber” means eraser
6. What does the underlined phrase “jotted down” in Pargraph 2 mean?
A. Wrote down B. Cared about C. Looked for D. Settled down
7. What is the passage mainly about?
A. The British way of using words.
B. Some new words the writer’s British friends taught her.
C. The reasons why Americans can’t follow the British at times.
D. Some words used differently in British English and American English.
【答案】4. C 5. D 6. A 7. D
【解析】
【导语】文章通过作者与英国朋友的日常交流,列举了“larder”“rubber”等词汇,生动展示了英美英语在词汇使用上的差异,并提醒英语学习者注意这些不同,以便更好地进行跨文化沟通。
【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第二段中的“When my friend Lily from London used the word “larder”, I didn’t know what it meant. Realizing I didn’t follow her, she used another word. I finally knew she wanted to find something to keep some food. (当伦敦的朋友Lily用“larder”这个词时,我并不知道它的意思。意识到我没有理解她,她换了一个词。我终于明白,她其实是想找个地方来存放一些食物。)”可知,Lily想找的是存放食物的柜子,cupboard意为“橱柜”,符合语境。
【5题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第四段中的“She asked the young man to help her if he had a rubber. When she noticed he didn’t follow her, she quickly asked for an eraser, which, in England, is often called a rubber. (她问那个年轻男子有没有橡皮擦,能不能帮帮她。当她注意到对方没听懂时,她赶紧改口说要一块橡皮擦,因为在英国,橡皮擦通常被称为rubber。)”可知,在英式英语中,“rubber”的意思是“eraser(橡皮擦)”,D选项符合题意。
【6题详解】
词句猜测题。根据文章第二段中的“She jotted down the date and time in her diary, while I marked my calendar.(她在日记本上____日期和时间,而我在日历上做标记。)”可知,在日记本上记录日期和时间,jotted down应与“写下”同义,wrote down符合语境,A选项“Wrote down(写下)”符合题意。
【7题详解】
主旨大意题。根据文章第一段“There are some differences between American English and British English. Some differences are quite interesting.(美式英语和英式英语之间存在一些差异。有些差异非常有趣。)”以及全文通过多个具体例子(如larder、diary、rubber、pissed等)展示了英美两国在词汇使用上的不同,可知文章主要讲述的是英美英语中一些词汇的不同用法,D选项“Some words used differently in British English and American English.(一些在英式英语和美式英语中用法不同的词语。)”符合题意。

Some people think going to the gym takes time and effort, it often hurts, and it can be extremely boring.Most weight-related exercises are a combination of sets and reps(几次几组).In order to see any significant change from any one exercise,it will probably need to be repeated six to eight times, for a minimum of three sets, for about three months: Then there' s aerobics(有氧运动).For some, there's nothing more boring than endless miles spent running on a treadmill(跑步机).
But what if there is a way to reduce the boredom of exercise while still getting a good workout? Luckily for us, there’s virtual reality (VR).
“In the past, playing video games was a sedentary(久坐不动的) experience:,"says Jo Stauffer of the VR Heaitn-institute, but VR changes all of that.” Many, VR games are played while standing In order to play properly, the players are forced to move around swinging their arms or using their legs.After an hour of this on a regular enough basis, it's not surprising, that many people unexpectedly find themselves a little fitter .There are already a number of virtual reality games which, deliberately or not, result in their player “getting a good sweat on” if played for enough time.For example, there's a music game which forces players to shadow box(做空拳攻防练习) in order to hit the notes---that's an upper-body workout.
The benefit of VR has been noticed by one company.They want to take the whole experience into the gym. They are making a resistance machine, designed to be used in combination with a VR headset. Players challenge a virtual competitor in a series of games,which results in a 30-minute full-body workout.However, the cost of the equipment is expensive and there are safety concerns to be worked out, says J.P.Gownder from the consultancy Forrester.
Although it's early days, for those: of us who struggle to overcome the boredom of exercise,a new solution could be coming.And a world where a person can exercise and have fun at the same time might be something that many people would want-virtual or not.So don' t give up exercising.
8. What conclusion can we draw from the first paragraph?
A. Most weight-related exercises nearly have no effect.
B. Some people think exercising in the gym is difficult and tiring.
C. Running on a treadmill wont bring significant change.
D. You'd better not go to the gym because of the risk of injury.
9. Compared with video games, VR games____________.
A. bring more fun to play.
B. take people less free time.
C. are more likely to bring players health benefits.
D. are more popular with people nowadays .
10. What can we know about the resistance machine?
A. It has been widely used in the gym.
B. There are some disadvantages of it.
C. J.P. Gownder highly recommends it.
D. When using it, people need to have a partner.
11. Which is the best title for the passage?
A. Virtual exercise in the gym. B. Keep going to the gym
C. The boredom of exercise D. The popularity of VR games.
【答案】8. B 9. C 10. B 11. A
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍“在健身房里进行的虚拟锻炼”。对一些人来说,没有什么比在跑步机上无休止地跑几英里更无聊的了。“一个人可以同时锻炼和娱乐,不管是不是虚拟的”,这是人们所想要的。所以不要放弃锻炼。
【8题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段“ Some people think going to the gym takes time and effort, it often hurts,and it can be extremely boring.Most weight-related exercises are a combination of sets and reps(几次几组).In order to see any significant change from any one exercise, it will probably need to be repeated six to eight times, for a minimum of three sets.for about three months.”可知,一些人认为去健身房需要时间和精力,经常会受伤,而且会非常无聊。大多数与体重有关的锻炼是几组练习和重复动作的组合。为了从任何一项运动中看出任何显著的变化,它可能需要重复六到八次,至少三组,持续大约三个月。由此可推知,一些人认为去健身房锻炼既艰难又累人。故选B项。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段第一句可知, Jo Stauffer认为过去玩电子游戏是一种久坐不动的经历。再根据第三段“ Many VR games are played while standing.In order to play properly, the players are forced to move around swinging their arms or using their legs.After an hour of this on a regular enough basis, it's not surprising that many people unexpectedly find themselves a little fitter.:”可知,很多虚拟现实游戏都是站着玩的。为了玩好,玩家被迫走来走去,摆动他们的手臂或使用他们的腿。经常这样玩一小时后,许多人意外地发现自己更健康一点并不奇怪。由此可推知,与电子游戏相比,虚拟现实游戏更可能给人们带来健康的好处。故选C项。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“ However, the cost of the equipment is expensive and there are safety concerns to be worked out, says J.P.Gownder”可知,J,P.Gonder说设备的费用昂贵,且有一些安全问题有待解决。由此可看出对抗机器有缺点。故选B项。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。文章第一段介绍一些人认为去健身房锻炼使人筋疲力尽。第二、三段介绍了虚拟现实游戏可以减缓运动的无聊、活动人的全身,经常玩的话可以使人们更健康。第四段介绍了一家公司认识到了虚拟现实的好处,想将其引入健身馆,正在研发一种对抗机器,使人们得到全身的锻炼。文章最后一段劝诫人们不要放弃锻炼。A项“在健身房进行虚拟锻炼”适合作为文章的标题。故选A项。
D
An Internet game — Stardew Valley — has gone viral and become a heated issue by becoming the number one choice for teenagers in the world to play.
The main character is a young farmer and the story is about escape to the country life, making the popularity of the game all the more surprising. The game is calm and relaxing and really the opposite to city life. It describes the countryside as a beautiful and peaceful place and its people as very caring and happy.
The game developer believes that this is what young people desire today. He says the success of the Internet game is because teenagers want a happier and healthier life away from the pressures of deadlines and exams. He figures this game offers a form of escape from their fast and stressful lives.
Despite this, many parents and teachers are worried about the effect this game is having on young people. Parents report that their children are just playing this game and neglecting everything else, using Stardew Valley as an excuse for not completing homework, or refusing to revise for exams, citing a need for a happier and less stressful life.
One father, Paul McGregor, said his daughter Charlotte had changed a lot. He said, “She used to be in the school athletics team and loved the marathon, but now she only wants to play the game Stardew Valley and has been dropped from the team. She no longer completes her homework saying it doesn’t matter as she just wants to ‘escape to a new life’”.
Dr. Elisa Carhart, an expert in child mental health, says that Internet can literally influence young people’s decisions in life, but believes that if a young person reacts as strongly as Charlotte, it’s likely that there are other reasons for the change in her behaviour.
12. Why is the Internet game — Stardew Valley so popular with teenagers?
A. Because the main character is a farmer.
B. Because the game describes the countryside as a peaceful place.
C. Because it can provide teenagers with an escape from pressures.
D. Because in the game people are caring and happy.
13. Which is closest in meaning to “neglecting” in paragraph 4?
A. Paying no attention to. B. Making the most of.
C. Feeling at home with. D. Complaining about.
14. What is probably Paul McGregor’s attitude towards the Stardew Valley?
A. Opposed. B. Supportive. C. Indifferent. D. Tolerant.
15. What can we learn from Dr. Elisa Carhart’s words?
A. Well begun is half done.
B. One man’s meat is another man’s poison.
C. Be a rainbow in somebody else’s cloud.
D. Do not throw the baby out with the bathwater.
【答案】12. C 13. A 14. A 15. D
【解析】
【导语】文章主要讲述了一款网络游戏——《星露谷物语》迅速走红,成为全球青少年首选游戏,引发热议。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“He says the success of the Internet game is because teenagers want a happier and healthier life away from the pressures of deadlines and exams. He figures this game offers a form of escape from their fast and stressful lives.(他说这款网络游戏之所以能获得成功,是因为青少年渴望一种更快乐、更健康的生活,远离截止任务与考试带来的重重压力。他认为这款游戏给他们节奏快、充满压力的现实生活提供了一种逃避方式。)”可知,网游《星露谷物语》在青少年中如此受欢迎是因为它能给青少年提供逃离压力的途径。
【13题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第四段“Parents report that their children are just playing this game and neglecting everything else, using Stardew Valley as an excuse for not completing homework(家长们反映,自家孩子一门心思玩这款游戏,neglecting了其他所有事情,还拿《星露谷物语》当作不完成作业的借口。)”可知,孩子只顾打游戏,不写作业,也就是忽视其他事情,由此可知,neglect意为“忽视”。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据第五段“She used to be in the school athletics team and loved the marathon, but now she only wants to play the game Stardew Valley and has been dropped from the team. She no longer completes her homework(她以前是学校田径队的队员,热爱马拉松,可现在一心只想玩《星露谷物语》,已经被队伍除名。她也不再完成家庭作业。)”可知,女儿原本热爱田径,现在沉迷游戏、被队伍除名、不写作业。这位父亲讲述女儿糟糕的变化,显然对这款游戏持反对态度。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“Dr. Elisa Carhart, an expert in child mental health, says that Internet can literally influence young people’s decisions in life, but believes that if a young person reacts as strongly as Charlotte, it’s likely that there are other reasons for the change in her behaviour.(儿童心理健康专家伊莉莎・卡哈特博士表示,网络确实会实实在在地影响年轻人对人生的抉择。但她认为,如果一个年轻人像夏洛特这样反应如此强烈,那么她行为发生改变很可能还有其他原因。)”可知,Dr. Elisa Carhart认为不能把孩子的极端行为全部归罪于游戏,要看到背后的其他深层原因,不能不分青红皂白全盘否定游戏的所有价值。D选项“Do not throw the baby out with the bathwater(不要把婴儿和洗澡水一起倒掉,即不要不分良莠全盘否定)”完全契合这个逻辑。

拓展句:As a student who has graduated from senior high, I’d like to offer you some advice.
【点睛】【高分句型1】To begin with, the most important advice I’d like to give is to follow the teachers’ instructions.(使用了省略关系词that的定语从句I’d like to give、不定式to follow…作表语)
【高分句型2】Besides, it is a good choice to take part in as many activities as possible, which will help you broaden your knowledge and make some friends. (使用了it is+adj.+n.+to do…结构、which引导非限制性定语从句)

47. 经常锻炼帮助我们保持健康,并保持积极的人生态度。(汉译英)
___________________________________________________________________
【答案】Regular exercise helps us keep healthy and maintain a positive attitude towards life.
【解析】
【详解】“经常锻炼”表达为regular exercise,此处用形容词regular修饰名词exercise作句子主语,首字母大写;“帮助我们保持健康”表达为help us keep healthy,遵循help sb. do sth.的固定搭配;“保持积极的人生态度”表达为maintain a positive attitude towards life,attitude towards sth是固定搭配,表示“对某事的态度”。本句描述的是客观普遍的常识性事实,使用一般现在时,主语Regular exercise是不可数名词短语,属于第三人称单数,因此谓语动词help使用第三人称单数形式helps,两个并列的宾语补足语keep healthy和maintain a positive attitude都用动词原形。
48. 我非常荣幸受邀在毕业典礼上发表演讲。(汉译英)
___________________________________________________________________
【答案】It is my great honor to be invited to deliver a speech at the graduation ceremony.
【解析】
【详解】表示“我非常荣幸……”常用固定句式It is one’s great honor to...,It作形式主语指代后续的不定式;“受邀”即“被邀请”,此处要用被动语态be invited,放在to之后用原形即可,invite sb. to do sth.表示“邀请某人做某事”;“发表演讲”表达为deliver a speech;“在毕业典礼上”表达为at the graduation ceremony。句子整体描述当下的客观感受,使用一般现在时。
49. 举办这次活动旨在提高人们对中国传统文化的认识。(汉译英)
___________________________________________________________________
【答案】
The activity is held to raise people’s awareness of traditional Chinese culture.
【解析】
【详解】 “这次活动”在句中作主语,表达为the activity,表示“举办”用动词hold,结合句意可知,活动是被举办的,且句子表述客观事实,故谓语动词hold应用一般现在时的被动语态is held;“旨在”在句中作目的状语,表达为动词不定式结构,表示“提高……的认识”为固定搭配raise one’s awareness of...;“人们的”表达为名词所有格people’s;“中国传统文化”表达为traditional Chinese culture。
50. 汤姆扑进妈妈的怀里,羞愧的泪水在眼眶里打转。(汉译英)
___________________________________________________________________
【答案】
Tom threw himself into his mother’s arms, tears of shame rolling in his eyes.
【解析】
【详解】“扑进妈妈的怀里”翻译为throw himself into his mother’s arms,句子描述过去的事情,时态用一般过去时,throw的过去式是threw,“羞愧的泪水”翻译为tears of shame,“在眼眶里打转”翻译为roll in his eyes,用现在分词表主动,tears of shame rolling in his eyes为独立主格结构。

___________________________________________________________________
【答案】In the past few years, I have been devoting myself to learning English, so I have a good command of English and am qualified for this job.
【解析】
【详解】表示“在过去几年里”表达为In the past few years,是现在完成类时态的标志性时间状语;主语为I;表示“一直潜心学习”:动作从过去持续到现在仍在进行,因此用现在完成进行时have been doing结构;表示“潜心做某事”固定表达为devote oneself to doing sth,其中to是介词,后接动名词短语“学习英语”为learning English;前后分句为因果逻辑,用连词so衔接;主语为I;表示“精通英语”短语表达为have a good command of English;表示“胜任这份工作”短语表达为be qualified for this job,陈述事实用一般现在时。
53. 我头晕目眩,挣扎着站起身,踉跄奔向终点线。(汉译英)
___________________________________________________________________
【答案】
I felt dizzy, struggled to my feet and staggered to the finish line.
【解析】
【详解】主语“我”译为代词I;“头晕目眩”译为系表结构feel dizzy,句子描述过去发生的事实,连系动词feel用一般过去时态felt;“挣扎着站起身”译为动词短语struggle to one’s feet,代词one’s与主语呼应,用my,struggle是并列谓语,用一般过去时态struggled;“踉跄奔向终点线”译为动词短语stagger to the finish line,stagger是并列谓语,用一般过去时态staggered,与前面两个谓语动词之间用and连接。
54. 如果您能考虑我的申请,我将不胜感激。(汉译英)

___________________________________________________________________
【答案】
Not only can you post specific questions on the online forum, but you can also broaden your knowledge by reading posts from other English learners around the world.
【解析】
【详解】“不仅……还……”用固定搭配not only...but also...,“可以”是can,not only位于句首,引起句子部分倒装,即把can提前到主语you的前面,“线上论坛”表达为online forum,“发布具体问题”表达为post specific questions,“拓宽知识”表达为broaden your knowledge,“通过阅读世界各地其他英语学习者的帖子来拓宽知识”翻译为by reading posts from other English learners around the world,动名词reading作by的宾语。
