For years, Peter M. Williams spent his days, with a small magnifying glass (放大镜), bringing old, broken watches back to life. The master watchmaker never expected many people to care. But today, the 54-year-old Scotsman has over 2.5 million followers online by simply fixing watches.
Williams runs a small repair shop in Edinburgh. He started posting videos out of boredom. He takes apart disabled watches other shops have given up on. One video, repairing a 1940s military watch run over by a car, has been viewed over 80 million times.
“I call myself a ‘restoration artist’, but really, I’m just someone who likes to fix things,” Williams said. Unlike fast automated production lines, his work is very slow. "You aren't just fixing a machine; you are repairing a memory,” he says. “A customer sent me his father’s watch last week. It hadn’t worked for 35 years. When I got the second hand moving again, he cried.”
Many people walk past broken watches in flea markets, seeing only waste. But Williams sees something they don't. Williams' success is part of the “mending movement” online, a stand against throwaway culture. While his shop mainly fixes expensive watches, he also supports repairing cheap but meaningful items. “People ask, ‘Is it worthwhile fixing a 50-year-old watch?’” I tell them, “‘Can you change the memory of your wedding day?’” he says.
Although his father was a clockmaker, Williams didn’t want to follow that way at first. He chose to study design instead. After losing his job during the 2008 financial crisis, he returned to the family workbench. “I don’t regret choosing a different path first,” he says. “This isn’t just a job; it’s my family’s heritage.”
He now sells restoration tool sets for beginners and offers online lessons to help keep watchmaking alive. “My goal is to make people understand that ‘broken’ doesn’t mean ‘garbage’,” he says. “With patience, anything can tick again.” As Williams likes to say, don’t judge a watch by its silence.
4. Why did Williams start posting videos?
A. To show off great skills. B. To pass the time.
C. To ease others' boredom. D. To draw attention.
5. What does Williams mean by mentioning “repairing a memory”?
A. Old watches hold emotional value. B. Old watches improve memory.
C. Old watches keep valuable photos. D. Old watches have resale value.
6. How can we describe Williams’ career path?
A. Easy and promising. B. Smooth and profitable.
C. Risky but successful. D. challenging but meaningful.
7. What can we learn from the text?
A. A watched pot never boils.
B. Rome was not built in a day.
C. Better to mend than to end.
D. A penny saved is a penny earned.
C
The Stanford marshmallow (棉花糖) test was first done by psychologist Walter Mischel in the late 1960s. Children aged four to six at a preschool were placed in a room. One sweet food chosen by the child was put on a table. Every child was told that if they could wait 15 minutes before eating the sweet food, they would get another one. Then they were left alone in the room. Follow-up studies of these children showed that the ability to wait for the second sweet food had something to do with different kinds of success in their later life.
When we grow into adults, we meet a new kind of the marshmallow test every day. We’re not tempted (诱惑) by sugary treats. Instead, computers, mobile phones and tablet computers bring us all kinds of information from the whole world, draw our attention. The information influences us just like marshmallows influence little kids.
Sweet food can easily tempt us because the ancient humans lived in a world with little calorie-rich (high-energy) food. So our brains formed a special way to react to sweet food: we will feel happy and satisfied after eating them. But humans have greatly changed the world now. It takes us little money and little work to get calorie-rich food. However, our brains are still the same as those of people thousands of years ago. This difference explains why many of us have difficulty saying “no” to nice-tasting food we know we should not eat.
The same thing happens when we face information. When human beings first appeared, there was very little new information around us. For this reason, our brains learned to value new information highly. But worldwide online connections have greatly changed our information world. Now new information comes to us non-stop. So, just as we need to think carefully about what food we take in, we also need to think carefully about what information we take in. We should say no to useless “mental junk food”, so that we can make good use of our time.
8. What did the children need to do to get a second sweet food in Mischel’s test?
A. Finish a test all by themselves. B. Share sweet food with other kids.
C. Show good manners to the scientists. D. Wait for fifteen minutes before eating.
9. According to paragraph 3, there is a mismatch between________.
A. the calorie-poor world and our wish for food.
B. nice-tasting food and our wish to keep healthy.
C. the rich food supply and our unchanged brains.
D. the shortage of sugar and our body’s food needs.
10. What does the author advise us to do?
A. Accept all new information happily.
B. Keep our online information world safe.
C. Get information from many different ways.
D. Choose information we read or watch carefully.
11. Which is the best title for the text?
A. Eat Less, Read More B. The Hard Fact about Early Humans
C. The Later, the Better D. The Marshmallow Test for Grownups
D
Fishing tools that are thrown away are a serious danger to ocean life. These “ghost nets” continue to catch and kill animals even after being thrown away by fishermen. They either float in the water or sit on the seabed, causing great harm to sea wildlife.
The problem is highlighted by a single net found in Puget Sound in 2009. Within just six months, it had already caught over 450 salmon, 1,300 sharks, 1,800 birds, 16,900 crabs, and 11 seals. Scientists believe that 10 to 30 percent of all business fishing tools are lost or thrown away every year. This means countless nets remain in the ocean, killing sea animals nonstop.
However, an important program called Fishing for Energy is working to deal with it. It brings together several organizations, including Covanta Energy Company and the National Fish and Wildlife Organization. Since 2008, they have successfully taken away nearly four million pounds of lost fishing tools from the ocean.
Collecting lost fishing tools is a difficult task. It requires finding the tools underwater, pulling them up, and bringing them to coast. To make it easier, Fishing for Energy has set up collection sites at ports in nine states. They give free boxes where fishermen can put the recovered tools. The program also offers prizes to fishermen who take away fishing waste from the sea and provides them with free educational programs.
Once collected, the tools are recycled to make power for locals. Any metal parts made of materials like gold, silver or iron are taken away, and the materials left are turned into energy at special factories. The program has grown rapidly. It started with one disposal site (垃圾处理场) in Massachusetts in 2008 and now has 55 sites across twelve states. Fishermen are developing new ways to find more tools, and local groups are giving money to workshops to find better solutions. Additionally, the program supports the development of new technology that makes fish-catching tools stop working after a certain period, as required by law.
12. What can we learn from the second paragraph?
A. The ghost nets around Puget Sound caught 11 seals in total in 2009.
B. A large number of sea animals die because of ghost nets every year.
C. The problem caused by ghost nets is less serious than people imagine.
D. The ghost nets have covered around 20% of business fishing nets so far.
13. What does the underlined word “recovered” in paragraph 4 most likely mean?
A. Used. B. Collected. C. Repaired. D. bought.
14. What do we know about the “Fishing for Energy” program?
A. It helps local people to get more power. B. It has 56 waste treatment places in total.
C. It requires fishermen to buy the collection boxes. D. It provides fishermen with new fishing techniques.
15. Which of the following is the most suitable title for the passage?
A. Ghost Nets: The Silent Killer for Sea Animals
B. Fishing for Energy: A Project for Producing Power
C. Ghost Nets: The Huge Treasure for Power Production
D. Fishing for Energy: A Program for Saving Ocean Life

Having overslept and realizing I would be late for school, I rushed out of the house without breakfast, ____21____ along the slippery street.

For years, Peter M. Williams spent his days, with a small magnifying glass (放大镜), bringing old, broken watches back to life. The master watchmaker never expected many people to care. But today, the 54-year-old Scotsman has over 2.5 million followers online by simply fixing watches.
Williams runs a small repair shop in Edinburgh. He started posting videos out of boredom. He takes apart disabled watches other shops have given up on. One video, repairing a 1940s military watch run over by a car, has been viewed over 80 million times.
“I call myself a ‘restoration artist’, but really, I’m just someone who likes to fix things,” Williams said. Unlike fast automated production lines, his work is very slow. "You aren't just fixing a machine; you are repairing a memory,” he says. “A customer sent me his father’s watch last week. It hadn’t worked for 35 years. When I got the second hand moving again, he cried.”
Many people walk past broken watches in flea markets, seeing only waste. But Williams sees something they don't. Williams' success is part of the “mending movement” online, a stand against throwaway culture. While his shop mainly fixes expensive watches, he also supports repairing cheap but meaningful items. “People ask, ‘Is it worthwhile fixing a 50-year-old watch?’” I tell them, “‘Can you change the memory of your wedding day?’” he says.
Although his father was a clockmaker, Williams didn’t want to follow that way at first. He chose to study design instead. After losing his job during the 2008 financial crisis, he returned to the family workbench. “I don’t regret choosing a different path first,” he says. “This isn’t just a job; it’s my family’s heritage.”
He now sells restoration tool sets for beginners and offers online lessons to help keep watchmaking alive. “My goal is to make people understand that ‘broken’ doesn’t mean ‘garbage’,” he says. “With patience, anything can tick again.” As Williams likes to say, don’t judge a watch by its silence.
4. Why did Williams start posting videos?
A. To show off great skills. B. To pass the time.
C. To ease others' boredom. D. To draw attention.
5. What does Williams mean by mentioning “repairing a memory”?
A. Old watches hold emotional value. B. Old watches improve memory.
C. Old watches keep valuable photos. D. Old watches have resale value.
6. How can we describe Williams’ career path?
A. Easy and promising. B. Smooth and profitable.
C. Risky but successful. D. challenging but meaningful.
7. What can we learn from the text?
A. A watched pot never boils.
B. Rome was not built in a day.
C. Better to mend than to end.
D. A penny saved is a penny earned.
【答案】4. B 5. A 6. D 7. C
【解析】
【导语】本文主要讲述苏格兰钟表修复师Peter M. Williams坚持修复老旧破损手表,通过网络分享修复视频走红,坚守修复工艺、反对一次性消费文化,并传承钟表制作技艺的故事。
【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第二段中的“He started posting videos out of boredom.(他出于无聊开始发布视频)”可知,他最初在网上发布视频只是为了打发无聊的时间。
【5题详解】
句意猜测题。根据文章第三段中Williams的解释:“A customer sent me his father’s watch last week. It hadn’t worked for 35 years. When I got the second hand moving again, he cried.(一位顾客上周把他父亲的手表寄给了我。这块表已经停走三十五年了。当我让秒针重新转动起来的时候,他哭了。)”可知,旧手表承载着顾客对亲人的回忆与深厚情感。因此,“repairing a memory”(修复记忆)意在说明旧手表具有极高的情感价值。
【6题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第五段可知,Williams最初没有继承父业而是去学了设计,在2008年金融危机中失业后才重新回到家族的修表工作台,这说明他的职业道路并非一帆风顺,充满挑战(challenging);同时他提到“This isn’t just a job; it’s my family’s heritage.(这不仅仅是一份工作;这是我家族的传承)”,且他的工作能帮人修复珍贵的记忆,说明这份职业非常有意义(meaningful)。
【7题详解】
推理判断题。文章主要讲述了修表匠Williams通过修复破损的手表,帮助人们找回珍贵的记忆;第四段提到他支持“mending movement(修补运动)”,反对“throwaway culture(用完即弃的文化)”,并在最后一段强调“‘broken’ doesn’t mean ‘garbage’(坏了不代表就是垃圾)”,因此,“Better to mend than to end(修补胜于丢弃)”最能概括文章传达的核心理念。
C
The Stanford marshmallow (棉花糖) test was first done by psychologist Walter Mischel in the late 1960s. Children aged four to six at a preschool were placed in a room. One sweet food chosen by the child was put on a table. Every child was told that if they could wait 15 minutes before eating the sweet food, they would get another one. Then they were left alone in the room. Follow-up studies of these children showed that the ability to wait for the second sweet food had something to do with different kinds of success in their later life.
When we grow into adults, we meet a new kind of the marshmallow test every day. We’re not tempted (诱惑) by sugary treats. Instead, computers, mobile phones and tablet computers bring us all kinds of information from the whole world, draw our attention. The information influences us just like marshmallows influence little kids.
Sweet food can easily tempt us because the ancient humans lived in a world with little calorie-rich (high-energy) food. So our brains formed a special way to react to sweet food: we will feel happy and satisfied after eating them. But humans have greatly changed the world now. It takes us little money and little work to get calorie-rich food. However, our brains are still the same as those of people thousands of years ago. This difference explains why many of us have difficulty saying “no” to nice-tasting food we know we should not eat.
The same thing happens when we face information. When human beings first appeared, there was very little new information around us. For this reason, our brains learned to value new information highly. But worldwide online connections have greatly changed our information world. Now new information comes to us non-stop. So, just as we need to think carefully about what food we take in, we also need to think carefully about what information we take in. We should say no to useless “mental junk food”, so that we can make good use of our time.
8. What did the children need to do to get a second sweet food in Mischel’s test?
A. Finish a test all by themselves. B. Share sweet food with other kids.
C. Show good manners to the scientists. D. Wait for fifteen minutes before eating.
9. According to paragraph 3, there is a mismatch between________.
A. the calorie-poor world and our wish for food.
B. nice-tasting food and our wish to keep healthy.
C. the rich food supply and our unchanged brains.
D. the shortage of sugar and our body’s food needs.
10. What does the author advise us to do?
A. Accept all new information happily.
B. Keep our online information world safe.
C. Get information from many different ways.
D. Choose information we read or watch carefully.
11. Which is the best title for the text?
A. Eat Less, Read More B. The Hard Fact about Early Humans
C. The Later, the Better D. The Marshmallow Test for Grownups
【答案】8. D 9. C 10. D 11. D
【解析】
【导语】本文主要介绍斯坦福棉花糖实验,并类比成年人如今面对海量信息,也面临属于成年人的棉花糖考验。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中的“Every child was told that if they could wait 15 minutes before eating the sweet food, they would get another one.(每个孩子被告知,如果能够等待15分钟再吃甜食,就可以再得到一份甜食。)”可知,孩子们需要等待十五分钟不吃甜食,才能得到第二份甜食。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中的“But humans have greatly changed the world now. It takes us little money and little work to get calorie-rich food. However, our brains are still the same as those of people thousands of years ago.(但是人类如今已经极大地改变了世界。我们花费很少金钱和精力就能获取高热量食物。然而我们的大脑仍然和几千年前的人类一样。)”可知,食物供给变得丰富,但人类大脑并未随之改变,二者之间存在不匹配。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“So, just as we need to think carefully about what food we take in, we also need to think carefully about what information we take in. We should say no to useless “mental junk food”, so that we can make good use of our time.(因此,正如我们需要谨慎考虑摄入什么食物一样,我们也需要谨慎考虑接收什么信息。我们应当拒绝无用的“精神垃圾食品”,从而充分利用时间。)”可知,作者建议我们要谨慎选择阅读和观看的信息。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文,尤其是第二段中的“When we grow into adults, we meet a new kind of the marshmallow test every day. We’re not tempted (诱惑) by sugary treats. Instead, computers, mobile phones and tablet computers bring us all kinds of information from the whole world, draw our attention.(当我们长大成人,我们每天都会遇到一种新的棉花糖测试。诱惑我们的不再是甜食。取而代之,电脑、手机和平板电脑带给我们来自世界各地的各类信息,吸引我们的注意力。)”可知,文章以经典棉花糖实验引入,讲述成年人每天面对各类信息诱惑,这就是成年人的棉花糖测试,所以“The Marshmallow Test for Grownups(成年人的棉花糖测试)”最适合作为文章标题。
D
Fishing tools that are thrown away are a serious danger to ocean life. These “ghost nets” continue to catch and kill animals even after being thrown away by fishermen. They either float in the water or sit on the seabed, causing great harm to sea wildlife.
The problem is highlighted by a single net found in Puget Sound in 2009. Within just six months, it had already caught over 450 salmon, 1,300 sharks, 1,800 birds, 16,900 crabs, and 11 seals. Scientists believe that 10 to 30 percent of all business fishing tools are lost or thrown away every year. This means countless nets remain in the ocean, killing sea animals nonstop.
However, an important program called Fishing for Energy is working to deal with it. It brings together several organizations, including Covanta Energy Company and the National Fish and Wildlife Organization. Since 2008, they have successfully taken away nearly four million pounds of lost fishing tools from the ocean.
Collecting lost fishing tools is a difficult task. It requires finding the tools underwater, pulling them up, and bringing them to coast. To make it easier, Fishing for Energy has set up collection sites at ports in nine states. They give free boxes where fishermen can put the recovered tools. The program also offers prizes to fishermen who take away fishing waste from the sea and provides them with free educational programs.
Once collected, the tools are recycled to make power for locals. Any metal parts made of materials like gold, silver or iron are taken away, and the materials left are turned into energy at special factories. The program has grown rapidly. It started with one disposal site (垃圾处理场) in Massachusetts in 2008 and now has 55 sites across twelve states. Fishermen are developing new ways to find more tools, and local groups are giving money to workshops to find better solutions. Additionally, the program supports the development of new technology that makes fish-catching tools stop working after a certain period, as required by law.
12. What can we learn from the second paragraph?
A. The ghost nets around Puget Sound caught 11 seals in total in 2009.
B. A large number of sea animals die because of ghost nets every year.
C. The problem caused by ghost nets is less serious than people imagine.
D. The ghost nets have covered around 20% of business fishing nets so far.
13. What does the underlined word “recovered” in paragraph 4 most likely mean?
A. Used. B. Collected. C. Repaired. D. bought.
14. What do we know about the “Fishing for Energy” program?
A. It helps local people to get more power. B. It has 56 waste treatment places in total.
C. It requires fishermen to buy the collection boxes. D. It provides fishermen with new fishing techniques.
15. Which of the following is the most suitable title for the passage?
A. Ghost Nets: The Silent Killer for Sea Animals
B. Fishing for Energy: A Project for Producing Power
C. Ghost Nets: The Huge Treasure for Power Production
D. Fishing for Energy: A Program for Saving Ocean Life
【答案】12. B 13. B 14. A 15. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了被丢弃的渔具“幽灵网”对海洋生物造成的严重危害,以及Fishing for Energy这一项目为解决这一问题所采取的措施和取得的成果。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“Scientists believe that 10 to 30 percent of all business fishing tools are lost or thrown away every year. This means countless nets remain in the ocean, killing sea animals nonstop. (科学家认为,每年有10%到30%的商业渔具丢失或被丢弃。这意味着无数的渔网留在海洋中,不停地杀死海洋动物)”可知,每年都有大量的海洋动物因为幽灵网而死亡。故选B项。
【13题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第四段“To make it easier, Fishing for Energy has set up collection sites at ports in nine states. They give free boxes where fishermen can put the recovered tools. (为了方便起见,Fishing for Energy在九个州的港口设立了收集点。他们提供免费的箱子,渔民可以把回收的工具放在里面)”可知,渔民可以把收集到的渔具放在免费提供的箱子里,所以“recovered”意思是“收集到的”,与“collected”意思相近。故选B项。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据第五段“Once collected, the tools are recycled to make power for locals. (一旦收集起来,这些工具就会被回收利用,为当地人提供电力)”可知,Fishing for Energy项目帮助当地人获得更多的电力。故选A项。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。文章主要介绍了被丢弃的渔具“幽灵网”对海洋生物造成的严重危害,以及Fishing for Energy这一项目为解决这一问题所采取的措施和取得的成果,所以“Fishing for Energy: A Program for Saving Ocean Life(Fishing for Energy:一个拯救海洋生命的项目)”适合作本文标题。故选D项。
