【答案】18. C 19. B 20. A
【解析】
【原文】W: Ladies and gentlemen,It gives me a great pleasure to be invited here to make a speech. Education is very important in my heart. I grew up in a small village in China. In those days, sixty percent of the villagers couldn’t read and of them women accounted for over a half. So my father opened a night school to teach them how to read. With his help many people learned to read newspapers for the first time.
As his daughter, I know what education means to the people, especially those without it. After generations of hard work, China has come a long way in education. I myself benefit a lot from that progress. Otherwise I would never have become a singer and a professor of music.
Many years ago my father made a small difference in his village. Together we can make a big difference. I was once asked about my Chinese dream. I said I hope all children especially girls can have access to good education.
Thank you very much.

Like everybody else, I was addicted to my devices. When realizing its harm, I decided to make a change.
“I’m doing Tech-Free Sundays now!” I told my mother, on the Saturday night before my no-tech journey started. “Oh,” she said. “So are you giving up, like, the wheel?” I defined my terms. No: computer, phone, iPad. No: email, Twitter, Instagram. Yes: wheels, modern medicine.
But when I woke up in the morning, I failed. The problem was my work: I needed to meet a deadline. I thought I could just use the computer for work, and wouldn’t check Twitter. And I didn’t, for many hours. And then I did. It was right there! And though I checked it very briefly, just in case anyone was mad at me, the spell (咒语) was broken.
But the beautiful thing about Sundays is that there is always another one. The next week, I changed my approach: no tech, at all. This time, I was prepared. On Saturday, I made a list of everything I wanted to accomplish over the weekend, and then worked my way through all the parts that require technology. And then I put my phone down, and when I woke up on Tech-Free Sunday, I did not pick it up again.
Instead, I finish a book—one with paper! Do you know how pleasurable it is to read a book by touching it? It is a delight, like petting a very literary cat. However, the trouble came when I went to meet a friend. I was running late, but had no way to tell her because my phone was at home.
Was I relaxed on such a Sunday? It was an unfamiliar feeling, but I was. I felt a sense of control over my life. But because life is nothing if not a learning process, the next weekend, I told everyone who might need to get in touch with me that I would not be reachable on Sunday.
24. What can we infer from the author’s conversation with her mother?
A. The author’s mother agreed with her decision.
B. The author wouldn’t drive on Tech-Free Sundays.
C. The author wouldn’t refuse all modern technology.
D. The author’s mother was unfamiliar with technological terms.
25. What happened on the first Tech-Free Sunday?
A. The author broke a spell happily.
B. The author got annoyed by others.
C. The author got her computer checked.
D. The author went against her original wish.
26. How did the author feel about her Tech-Free decision finally?
A. Satisfied. B. Tired. C. Disappointed. D. Hesitant.
27. What can be the best title for the text?
A. I Realized the Harm of Devices
B. I Tried Going Tech-Free on Sundays
C. Being Addicted to Devices Is Harmful
D. “Tech-Free Sundays” Become Popular
【答案】24. C 25. D 26. A 27. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。作者讲述了自己尝试“无科技周日”的一段经历、遇到的问题和对自己计划的适时调整以及感受。
【24题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段中“I defined my terms. No: computer, phone, iPad. No: email, Twitter, Instagram. Yes: wheels, modern medicine.”（我定义了我的术语。没有：电脑、手机、平板电脑。没有：电子邮件、推特、图片分享社交应用。有的是：轮子，现代医学）可知，我们从作者与她母亲的谈话中看出，作者自己定义科技内容，其中她说的“无科技”不包括汽车和现代医学，因此判断她不会拒绝使用所有的现代科技。故选C项。
【25题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“I thought I could just use the computer for work, and wouldn’t check Twitter. And I didn’t, for many hours. And then I did. It was right there! And though I checked it very briefly, just in case anyone was mad at me, the spell (咒语) was broken.”（我以为我可以用电脑工作，而不会查看推特。我好几个小时都没有。然后我做到了。它就在那里！尽管我检查了很短时间，以防有人生我的气，但咒语还是被打破了）可知，最初作者认为自己可以只使用电脑工作而不会查看推特，但是她没有控制住自己，因此是违背了最初的愿望。故选D项
【26题详解】
推理判断题。根据第五段“Instead, I finish a book—one with paper! Do you know how pleasurable it is to read a book by touching it? It is a delight, like petting a very literary cat. ”（相反，我看完了一本纸质书！你知道触摸一本书是多么令人愉快吗？这是一种享受，就像抚摸一只非常有文学气息的猫一样）和第六段的“ I felt a sense of control over my life. But because life is nothing if not a learning process, the next weekend, I told everyone who might need to get in touch with me that I would not be reachable on Sunday.”（我对自己的生活有一种掌控感。但因为生活是一个学习的过程，下个周末，我告诉所有可能需要联系我的人，周日无法联系到我）可知，作者在“无科技周日”感觉很放松而且不断地学习改进自己的做法，由此推断她对自己做出的这个决定是满意的。故选A项。
【27题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第二段““I’m doing Tech-Free Sundays now!” I told my mother, on the Saturday night before my no-tech journey started.”（“我现在正在尝试“无科技周日！”在我的无科技之旅开始的前一个周六晚上，我告诉了母亲）可知，本文主要是围绕作者尝试“无科技周日”所发生的事情展开的，推断出文章的标题就是“我尝试过无科技周日”。故选B项。
C
Eggs are a common ingredient. They’re at the center of the age-old question, “What came first, the chicken or the egg?” and the classic idiom, “Egg someone on.” And, most fascinatingly, they’re the subjects of art, film and fashion.
From Jean-Baptiste Greuze’s painting “Broken Eggs” and Claude Monet’s painting “Still Life with Eggs” to Giovanni Battista Recco’s “Still Life with Chickens and Eggs”, there’s no shortage of egg illustrations. Within the field of art, eggs are a complex theme due to their significance in Christian cultures and mythology.
Simply put, an egg is more than just food—it is “a symbol and a shape-shifter.. . an industry and an inspiration, a cross-cultural expression of rebirth and potential,” according to a book called “The Gourmand’s Egg. A Collection of Stories and Recipes”.
Written by David Lane and Marina Tweed of the contemporary food and culture journal “The Gourmand”, the latest publication explores this phenomenon through a collection of images, stories and recipes focused on eggs. There’s also a section devoted to egg accessories, further illustrating how the egg became so remarkable in culture.
Perhaps the earliest mythological subject of eggs is the world egg, which thinks that the universe came into existence via a hatched (孵化) egg. Eggs then became a symbol of celebration. This eventually became the basis of classic Easter traditions.
Eggs were first showcased in art during the Renaissance. Take for example Piero della Francesca’s Breru Madonna, in which the hanging egg is a symbol of both creation and purity. There’s also Hieronymous Bosch’s oil painting “The Garden of Earthly Delights”, which shows yet another floating unhatched egg that is “a symbol of unrealized hope, or hidden power.”
As “The Gourmand’s Egg” wrote, “The egg is a cinematic chameleon(变色龙). It has been a symbol of brotherly love, a Freudian red flag, a symbol of life. ”
Additionally, “as in so many pictures, the egg often features not only as an everyday foodstuff but as a container of countless meanings.”
28. Why does the author list some paintings in paragraph 2?
A. To appeal to the readers’ attention.
B. To give examples of best painted eggs.
C. To prove there are many paintings about eggs.
D. To show the egg subject makes many famous paintings.
29. What is covered in David Lane and Marina Tweed’s new book?
A. The culture of eggs.
B. Skills of egg hatching.
C. The kinds of eggs.
D. Types of egg containers.
30. What does the egg stand for in Bosch’s painting?
A. Life. B. Potential. C. Love. D. Purity.
31. What is the author’s purpose of writing this text?
A. To sell a newly-published book.
B. To discuss famous paintings about eggs.
C. To introduce different egg cooking techniques.
D. To show the complex meaning of eggs in works of art.
【答案】28. C 29. A 30. B 31. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要通过绘画作品介绍了鸡蛋在艺术绘画领域作为主题的历史。
【28题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第一段“And, most fascinatingly, they’re the subjects of art, film and fashion.(而且，最令人着迷的是，它们是艺术、电影和时尚的主题。)”可知，鸡蛋是艺术、电影等领域的创作主题；然后第二段“From Jean-Baptiste Greuze’s painting “Broken Eggs” and Claude Monet’s painting “Still Life with Eggs” to Giovanni Battista Recco’s “Still Life with Chickens and Eggs”, there’s no shortage of egg illustrations. (从让-巴蒂斯特·格鲁兹的《破蛋》和克劳德·莫奈的《鸡蛋静物》到乔瓦尼·巴蒂斯塔·雷科的《鸡和蛋的静物》，鸡蛋插画从不匮乏。)”介绍了几个以鸡蛋为主题的画作，由此推断作者列举这些画作是为了说明有许多关于鸡蛋的画作，进而支持“鸡蛋是很多艺术作品的主题”这一观点。故选C。
【29题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段“Written by David Lane and Marina Tweed of the contemporary food and culture journal “The Gourmand”, the latest publication explores this phenomenon through a collection of images, stories and recipes focused on eggs. There’s also a section devoted to egg accessories, further illustrating how the egg became so remarkable in culture.(由当代美食文化杂志《美食家》的大卫·莱恩和玛丽娜·特威德撰写的最新出版物通过一系列以鸡蛋为主题的图片、故事和食谱来探索这一现象。还有一个部分专门介绍鸡蛋的配件，进一步说明了鸡蛋在文化中是如何变得如此引人注目的。)”可知，大卫·莱恩和玛丽娜·特威德撰写的新书中提到了有关鸡蛋的故事、食谱以及以鸡蛋为主题的图片，这些都展现的是有关鸡蛋的文化。故选A。
【30题详解】
细节理解题。根据倒数第三段“There’s also Hieronymous Bosch’s oil painting “The Garden of Earthly Delights”, which shows yet another floating unhatched egg that is “a symbol of unrealized hope, or hidden power.”(还有希勒姆·博斯的油画《世俗的快乐花园》，这幅画展示了另一个漂浮的未孵出的蛋，它是“未实现的希望或隐藏的力量的象征”。)”可知，在博斯的作品中鸡蛋是潜力的象征。故选B。
【31题详解】
推理判断题。本文主要通过《美食家的鸡蛋》这本书介绍了鸡蛋作为艺术主题在绘画领域中的不同的象征意义。从而推断，作者写这篇文章的目的是展示鸡蛋在艺术作品中的复杂意义。故选D。
D
Two years ago, enormous fires swept through some 46 million acres of forest in Russia, the country’s worst fire season on record. Now, researchers have a clearer sense of just how significant the 2021 boreal(北方的)forest fires were in terms of emissions. The fires produced more planet-heating carbon dioxide than any other extreme fire event that has occurred since the turn of the 21st century, according to a study.
Boreal forests grow where it is very cold. The trees that live in this type of forest grow slowly and seal (封存) carbon in their trunks and roots for hundreds of years, comprising a collection of trapped emissions that researchers call a carbon sink. But rising temperatures and related drought in these historically cool regions have led to an increase in extreme wildfire activity and threaten to release the carbon stored in the trees that grow there, transforming a carbon sink into a carbon source.
In all, fires in boreal forests released the carbon sink and produced nearly half a billion metric tons of carbon in 2021.That’s more carbon than the entire continent of Australia produced the same year, though some of the emissions produced by the fires will be sucked back up as forests regrow.
The researchers obtained the data for their study by tracking concentrations of emissions in the atmosphere using satellites, and then they put that information into a computer model to determine where, geographically, those emissions came from. They found that boreal forests, which typically produce about 10 percent of the globe’s annual wildfire emissions, accounted for 23 percent of the world’s wildfire emissions in 2021—more than twice as much as normal.
Canadell, who led the study, is most concerned about the study’s main takeaway; Boreal forests have served an important and underappreciated role in sequestering carbon emissions, but climate change threatens to release that carbon. “We need to be very careful with these systems in terms of their future development,” he said.
32. What is the function of paragraph 2?
A. To explain the source of carbon.
B. To illustrate two scientific concepts.
C. To indicate the seriousness of the fire.
D. To show the importance of boreal forests.
33. How did the scientists get needed data?
A. By employing technology.
B. By searching on the website.
C. By analyzing previous data.
D. By turning to the firefighters.
34. What does the underlined word “sequestering” in paragraph 5 probably mean?
A. Assessing. B. Increasing. C. Monitoring. D. Preventing.
35. What is mainly talked about in the text?
A. The reasons for the forest fires in the north.
B. The impact of the 2021 boreal forest fires.
C. The link between fires and carbon dioxide.
D. The increasingly growing carbon emissions.
【答案】32. A 33. A 34. D 35. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍的是2021年北方森林大火造成的影响。
【32题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段“The fires produced more planet-heating carbon dioxide than any other extreme fire event that has occurred since the turn of the 21st century, according to a study.”（根据一项研究，自21世纪之交以来，火灾产生的地球加热二氧化碳比任何其他极端火灾事件都多。）及第二段“Boreal forests grow where it is very cold. The trees that live in this type of forest grow slowly and seal carbon in their trunks and roots for hundreds of years, comprising a collection of trapped emissions that researchers call a carbon sink.”（北方的森林生长在非常寒冷的地方。生活在这种类型的森林中的树木生长缓慢，并在树干和根部封存碳数百年，其中包括一组被捕获的排放物，研究人员称之为碳汇。）可知，文章首段提出北方森林大火造成了大量的碳排放，在第二段介绍了森林对碳的封存功能以及这些树木内的碳是如何释放出来的，由此推断第二段的目的是解释北方森林大火为什么会造成大量的碳排放，即说明这些碳的来源。故选A项。
【33题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段中“The researchers obtained the data for their study by tracking concentrations of emissions in the atmosphere using satellites, and then they put that information into a computer model to determine where, geographically, those emissions came from.”（研究人员通过使用卫星跟踪大气中的排放浓度来获得研究数据，然后将这些信息输入计算机模型，以确定这些排放在地理上来自何处。）可知，科学家在研究过程中使用了高科技来统计数据。故选A项。
【34题详解】
词义猜测题。根据文章第二段“But rising temperatures and related drought in these historically cool regions have led to an increase in extreme wildfire activity and threaten to release the carbon stored in the trees that grow there, transforming a carbon sink into a carbon source.”（但是，在这些历史上凉爽的地区，气温上升和相关的干旱导致了极端野火活动的增加，并有可能释放储存在那里生长的树木中的碳，将碳汇转化为碳源。）以及第四段画线词后句中“but climate change threatens to release that carbon”（但气候变化有可能释放这种碳）可知，北方森林在隔离碳排放方面发挥了重要但未得到充分重视的作用，sequestering意为“隔绝”和preventing“阻止”意思相近，符合句意。故选D项。
【35题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段“Two years ago, enormous fires swept through some 46 million acres of forest in Russia, the country’s worst fire season on record. Now, researchers have a clearer sense of just how significant the 2021 boreal(北方的)forest fires were in terms of emissions.”（两年前，大火席卷了俄罗斯约4600万英亩的森林，这是该国有记录以来最严重的火灾季节。现在，研究人员对2021北方森林火灾在排放方面的重要性有了更清晰的认识。）由此推断，文章主要介绍的是2021年北方森林大火造成的影响。故选B项。

Use stairs. If you have stairs at your home or office, take them every chance you get. ____36____ For a strong cardio (有氧) workout, you can walk up and down the stairs repeatedly. Start with a limited number of repetitions and then increase them as you feel stronger.
Drink one extra glass of water a day. It’s nothing new that there are health benefits to drinking more water. ____37____ If plain water isn’t your favorite, you can add flavor to your water to help up your intake.
Correct your posture. When you were a kid, have your parents ever yelled at you for having bad posture? Well, the bad news is that they were right. ____38____ Not only that, but good posture prevents backache. You can try to leave yourself a note to sit up straight until it becomes an unconscious habit. Walking with your shoulders back and head held high can also make you feel good about yourself.
____39____ Solid sleep doesn’t just give you more energy, it can also help with healthy eating goals. If you have difficulty falling asleep, try to head to bed thirty minutes earlier than your usual time. Wind down with a book. You’ll be falling asleep in no time.

B. Change your bad sleep habits.

【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一些在生活中要养成的好习惯，比如爬楼梯、多喝水以及早点休息等。
【36题详解】
上文“If you have stairs at your home or office, take them every chance you get.(如果你的家或办公室有楼梯，抓住每一个机会)”及下文“For a strong cardio (有氧) workout, you can walk up and down the stairs repeatedly.(为了进行强有力的有氧运动，你可以反复上下楼梯)”可知，A项“但不要止步于此”即使对前文利用楼梯可以锻炼身体内容的承接也是对下文通过上下楼梯可以进行有氧运动的内容递进。故选A项。
【37题详解】
上文“It’s nothing new that there are health benefits to drinking more water. (多喝水对健康有益并不是什么新鲜事)”说明喝水对健康有好处，G项“它有助于保持你的体温正常，并消除废物”中的It指代上文中的drinking more water，是对上文喝水益处的进一步解释。故选G项。
【38题详解】
下文“Not only that, but good posture prevents backache. (不仅如此，良好的姿势还能防止背痛)”说明良好的姿势还能防止背痛，根据“Not only that”判断设空处应该介绍了良好姿势的其他好处，因此D选项“良好的姿势可以减轻压力”内容适合语境。故选D项。
【39题详解】
下文“Solid sleep doesn’t just give you more energy, it can also help with healthy eating goals. If you have difficulty falling asleep, try to head to bed thirty minutes earlier than your usual time. (稳定的睡眠不仅能给你更多的能量，还能帮助你实现健康的饮食目标。如果你难以入睡，试着比平时提前三十分钟上床睡觉)”可知，本段介绍了睡眠的好处并建议人们早点睡觉，因此判断C选项“提前半小时上床睡觉”可以作为本段主题句。故选C项。
【40题详解】
上文“Stay focused on your goal.(要专注于自己的目标)”说明专注目标才能坚持好习惯，E项“如果你半途而废了，就重新开始”是对上文专注目标内容的承接。故选E项。

My Own Beat
My pulse quickened as my feet took me closer and closer to the door. In my head, I could hear the words my kids kept telling me, “Do it, Mom. You never do anything for yourself. Just follow your dream.” I felt my lungs filled with air and released it.
“What are you doing here? You’re a single mom of five. You’re fifty years old!” My thoughts were fighting with my kids’ words. Even so, it was as if I had no control over my feet. As if they were being urged along from somewhere deep inside me.
Finally I gathered my courage, stepped into the hall and signed up for drum classes, which was my childhood dream.
Wednesday came, and along with it my first drum lesson. I walked through the door and headed directly to the seating area in the back. My hands kept fidgeting (动来动去) with the sticks. I kept nervously looking at the time. I tried to slow down my breath. I knew the teacher would say I was not the right type of person to play the drums. I turned around to see an older man looking at me.
“Stephanie? I’m Mike, the drum teacher,” he said.
People make me nervous. That’s the way I’ve always been. But Mike had a very calm manner about him, so I relaxed just slightly. Not only did he not tell me that I was the wrong type of person to play the drums, but he complimented me on how well I held the sticks and followed along with him.
“You are fine. I see so much potential in you,” he told me.
Soon my thirty-minute lesson is over. Walking back to my car, I felt full of excitement and energy. I thought of how many times I had driven my kids to their competitions and watched proudly as they bravely went in front of judges and audiences.
Now it felt scary and amazing at the same time to follow my dream and do something that was purely for my enjoyment, something just for me. Maybe one day I would have the chance to stand on the stage.
注意：
1.续写词数应为150左右;
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
I started the car and couldn’t wait to go back home to tell my kids about my class.

Seeing my devotion and progress, Mike convinced me to play in a concert.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】I started the car and couldn’t wait to go back home to tell my kids about my class. When I stepped into the house, my kids yelled, “Did you do it?” “How was everything going?” Then they saw my excitement and the drumsticks in my hand. They started jumping up and down and then came to hug me. In the following days, I practiced as much as I could and my techniques improved greatly. When I played, I became so focused on the drums that it was as if my expression of who I was came out with every beat and rhythm.
Seeing my devotion and progress, Mike convinced me to play in a concert. When I told my children the news, they felt really happy for me, promising they would go with me. The big day soon came. When waiting for my turn, I felt a little nervous but thinking of my kids helped me to find strength within me. Walking up on the small stage, I breathed deeply and sat at the drum set. When I finished, everyone was clapping and cheering for me. I did it!
