第二部分 阅读理解(共两节,满分50分)
第一节(共15小题;每小题2.5分,满分37.5分)阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中,选出最佳选项。
A
Often, there is a false idea that one must be “in-the-know” to truly appreciate artworks. However, fine art opens the door to everyone. Learning how to look at and understand artworks requires us to take the time to view, identify and think.
Look at the Art
As the first step it’s necessary to take a moment to identify the artwork’s general features:
● Is it a painting, sculpture or craftwork
● Does it appear messy or organized
● Are the colors bright or soft
Identify the Art and Artist
Knowing when or how the artwork was made and learning something about the artist can reveal more context. We all know the famous painting Guernica is a masterpiece created by Picasso in 1937. However, if we can find out Picasso composed the painting to reflect a bombing during the Spanish Civil War, we’ll know more about its anti-war meaning.
Even if the historical context of an artwork is not obvious, knowing the year of its creation offers more context.
Think About the Meaning
Use what you observed in the first two steps to think about meanings the artwork could have.
Consider what the title, the subjects, or the symbols meant to the artist when he or she created the artwork. What do the colors say about the artist, and how do they apply to the subjects in the art For example, the owls in Lebo’s works represent wisdom, but why are they so brightly colored
In addition, ask how the art makes you feel. Many artists have specific meanings behind their art, but also encourage viewers to come up with their own explanations. Still, every explanation is not automatically correct, which is why the techniques described above are helpful in finding clues.
The next time you’re admiring a work of art, keep these techniques in mind, and its meaning may unfold before your eyes.
21. What is the first step when viewing art
A. Doing some research on the artist. B. Being “in-the-know” about the work.
C. Knowing the year of an artwork’s creation. D. Identifying the work’s general features.
22. What should you do when thinking about the meaning of an artwork
A. explain it freely. B. choose a title for it.
C. ask how it makes you feel. D. describe it to the viewers.
23. Who is probably the passage written for
A. museum staff. B. gallery visitors.
C. professional artists. D. exhibition organizers.
B
In 2014, Xu Yitang, a Beijing native who had been studying Peking Opera since childhood, went with friends for a birthday celebration to Beijing Zoo. Little did he know that a chance encounter at the aquarium there would excite a lifelong passion. As Xu Yitang stared at corals bathed in tank's light, a sense of wonder crowded into his mind. Lost in the beauty and mystery of the creatures, he spent the entire afternoon in front of it. After that, he began to frequent the local market to learn about coral farming from merchants who sell ornamental plants, fish and corals. He also searched for information on relevant forums online. Before long, he had set up a small fish tank at home and started cultivating a coral.
Nowadays, Xu Yitang who has moved to the tropical island of South China's Hainan province, works for a Sanya-based tropical biological laboratory belonging to the Chinese Academy of Sciences. Each day, he spends several hours diving deep under the waves to observe and document the growth and development of the creatures that captured his heart all those years ago. Nicknamed "coral man", he is actively engaged on such social media platforms as Sina Weibo, where he regularly shares visually beautiful photos and entertaining videos of corals. He aims to encourage individuals to take action in protecting coral reefs and the oceans as a whole from the destructive impact of climate change and human activities.
Unfortunately, with the strengthening of the greenhouse effect, rising sea temperatures have led to coral bleaching(白化) and decay. A coral reef's beautiful colors come from the symbiotic algae(共生藻类) zooxanthellae that provide more than 90 percent of the energy through photosynthesis(光合作用). Coral bleaching occurs when coral expels the algae and dies due to the lack of nutrients.
In the laboratory, he would film educational videos to raise awareness and knowledge about corals, so that people can learn how to protect them effectively.
24. What changed Xu Yitang's career choice
A. Frequenting the local market. B. Setting up a small fish tank at home.
C. Having an encounter at the aquarium. D. Observing coral growth and development.
25. What can we infer from paragraph 2
A. Xu is a diver in the lab.
B. Xu is a coral conservationist.
C. Xu spends few hours on his work every day.
D. Xu shares his videos for corals through social media platforms.
26. What caused coral bleaching
A. Rising sea temperatures. B. Lots of nutrients in the water.
C. Coral farming practices. D. Lack of sunlight in deep waters.
27. How does he feel about his job now
A. Critical. B. Indifferent. C. Objective. D. Enthusiastic.
C
Le's face it: it can be challenging to motivate ourselves to read a 382-page book when we can watch a movie, listen to an audio book, or watch a TikTok video instead. However, if most of your daily reading is made up of social media posts, text messages, and news headlines, you’re missing out. So, what are the benefits of taking up the hobby of reading books
One of the clearest benefits of reading books every day is learning. Unlike a TikTok video, books provide access to in-depth knowledge. Going beyond the surface of a subject is important to success. This is probably why the author Roald Dahl once said,“If you are going to get anywhere in life, you have to read a lot of books." And you can learn literally anything from books. For example, whenever anybody asks Elon Musk, the founder of SpaceX, how he learned to build rockets, he says, "I read books."
Besides, reading exercises the brain. Reading is to the mind what exercise is to the body. Research has confirmed that reading motivates a complex network of circuits and signals in the brain. As you improve your reading ability, the network becomes stronger. In another study, researchers measured how reading a novel affected our brains. The participants read the novel Pompeii by Robert Harris, and as tension in the story developed, more areas of the brain were activated .
Want to know the best part The scans showed that brain connectivity increased while one was reading and for days afterward, demonstrating the great benefits of reading books every day.
Our brains have a "use it or lose it" policy, just like our muscles. In other words, if we don't exercise our minds regularly, our cognitive abilities may drop. However, when we read every day, we can keep them strong and high.
What can we learn about reading books from paragraph 1
It is pleasant. B. It provides motivation.
C. It is demanding. D. It improves one's skills.
Which of the following best explains “get anywhere" underlined in paragraph 2
A. Achieve success. B. Acquire knowledge.
C. Reach a destination. D. Travel to different places.
What does reading do to the brain
A. It improves focus. B. It increases brain capacity.
C. It keeps the brain sharp. D. It slows brain connectivity.
31. What can be a suitable title for the text
A. Today's reading habits
B. The power of reading books
C. How reading benefits the brain
D. What happens when you start reading every day
D
Robert Chmielewski has had quadriplegia (四肢瘫痪) since his teens. Sensors implanted (植入) in his brain read his thoughts to control two robotic arms, which helps him to perform daily tasks. Now he can use one robotic arm to control a knife and the other a fork.
Modern technology can reach inside someone’s head and pull out what he is thinking. Maybe he intends to move a robotic arm or type something on a computer screen. Such thought-controlled devices can help people who aren’t able to move or perform different tasks and promote the well-being of the disabled.
Decoding (解码) thought usually requires placing sensors directly on or in someone’s brain. Those implanted sensors can catch the electrical signals passing between the person’s brain cells, or neurons. Such signals carry messages that allow brains to think, feel and control the body.
Using brain implants, researchers have picked up electrical signals in the brain linked to certain words or letters. This has allowed brain implants to transform thoughts into text or speech on a computer. Likewise, brain implants have transformed imagined handwriting into text on a screen. Implanted sensors have even allowed scientists to turn the signals they caught that are associated with a song in someone’s head into real music.
In a recent study, scientists decoded full stories from people’s brains using MRI scans (磁共振成像扫描). This did not require any brain implants. But building the thought decoder did require many hours of brain scans for each person. What’s more, the system only worked on the person whose brain scans helped build it and only when that person was willing to have their mind read.
So devices that might let someone secretly read your mind from across the room are still a long, long way off. Still, it’s clear that mind-reading tech is getting more advanced. As it does, scientists are thinking hard about what it would mean to live in a world where not even the inside of your head is completely private.
32. What is the purpose of the first paragraph
A. To give an example. B. To compare the facts.
C. To explain the reason. D. To introduce the topic.
33. Which of the following is mentioned in the text
A. What principles a thought decoder should follow.
B. How MRI monitors the work of the implanted sensors.
C. What’s used to catch signals passing through the brain.
D. How robotic arms are designed to satisfy different needs.
34. What is scientists’ attitude towards the future of the technology discussed in the text
A. Concerned. B. Confident. C. Doubtful. D. Indifferent.
35. What can be a suitable title for the text
A. Mind Reading is Stealing Our Privacy
B. Mind Reading is Hard, but not Impossible
C. Mind Reading—Good News for Musicians
D. Mind Reading—a Brain-scanning Technology

Here come some of the ways to keep delighted and a healthy mood by Harvard.
Be grateful and say thanks often
36 —the tiny purple flowers on the sidewalk, the beautiful sunset, and the smile in your partner's eyes. When you have a grateful heart that is appreciative of life's beauty, wonder and blessings, you're automatically filled with delight. Always be appreciative of the blessings in your life. And it's equally important to express your appreciation to those who've made your life better in some way.
37
lf your tendency is to imagine the very worst case whenever you have trouble, train yourself to change that tendency. Ask yourself what good can come from the situation or what you can learn from it. Optimism surely fuels success and delight. 38 Try to find humor and laughter in life's everyday struggles.
Understand and forgive
Step into others' shoes and understand a situation from another's perspective, and we're more likely to handle the situation with objectivity and effectiveness. There will be less conflicts and more delight.
Hate and anger are forms of self-punishment. When you forgive, you're actually practicing kindness to yourself. Most importantly, learn to forgive yourself. Everyone makes mistakes. 39 .
Keep learning and be a problem solver
Learning keeps us young and alive. When engaging our brains and putting them toward productive uses, we're much more likely to feel delighted and fulfilled.
Delighted people are problem solvers. When facing a challenge in life, they don't beat themselves up and fall into a depressive state. 40 . By becoming a problem solver, you'll build up your self-confidence and your ability to accomplish whatever you set to.
A. Be optimistic and laugh often.
B. Pay attention to the little details in your life.
C. Do what you love freely and live happily in the present.

阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整短文。
When I was in middle school, my social studies teacher asked me to enter a writing contest. I said no without thinking. I did not love writing. My family came from Brazil, so English was only my second language. Writing was so difficult and painful for me that my teacher had allowed me to present my paper on the sinking of the Titanic by acting out a play, where I played all the parts. No one laughed harder than he did.
So, why did he suddenly force me to do something at which I was sure to fail His reply: “Because I love your stories. If you’re willing to apply yourself, I think you have a good shot at this.” Encouraged by his words, I agreed to give it a try.
I chose Paul Revere’s horse as my subject. Paul Revere was a silversmith (银匠) in Boston who rode a horse at night on April 18, 1775 to Lexington to warn people that British soldiers were coming. My story would come straight from the horse’s mouth. Not a brilliant idea, but funny; and unlikely to be anyone else’s choice.
What did the horse think, as he sped through the night Did he get tired Have doubts Did he want to quit I sympathized immediately. I got tired. I had doubts. I wanted to quit. But, like Revere’s horse, I kept going. I worked hard. I checked my spelling. I asked my older sister to correct my grammar. I checked out a half dozen books on Paul Revere from the library. I even read a few of them.
When I handed in the essay to my teacher, he read it, laughed out loud, and said, “Great. Now, write it again.” I wrote it again, and again and again. When I finally finished it, the thought of winning had given way to the enjoyment of writing. If I didn’t win, I wouldn’t care.
注意:
续写词数应为 150 左右;
请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
A few weeks later, when I almost forgot the contest, there came the news.
I went to my teacher’s office after the award presentation.

M: Meg, what activity is in your blood
W: Hmm, I would say I like anything with nature, like camping or especially hiking and it’s hard for me to resist if I’m in a place with beautiful nature. I need to go outside.
M: So what about baking Isn’t baking sort of just natural for you
W: I do also love to bake, especially when I can make very creative desserts to share with people, but I don’t like to bake for myself. Do you have any activities or things that are in your blood
M: Well, I think one is just teaching. I love teaching. I just want to teach all the time. Even if I won the lottery, I would be a teacher. And another thing is jogging, even though most people are surprised because I’m a little fat. I’m about 20 pounds overweight, but I run almost every day. It’s the most relaxing thing for me.
Text 10 未来的房子
W: We won’t know what the future house will look like, but we can imagine three kinds of houses.
The first one is the tree house. Like a leaf, the surface of the house collects sunlight during the day. The energy can be used to heat water, produce electricity and even create fresh air for the home. The root of the house is deep under the ground. It uses the soil to control the home’s temperature.
The second one is the lizard home. Like a lizard, changing colors with the weather is the most important design of a lizard house. When it’s in the bright sun, the cover of the house will turn dark to protect it from strong heat. During the dark days, it turns white and takes in as much light and heat as possible to produce energy.
The last one is the chimney house. In such a house, a chimney can be a useful air conditioner because it is easier for hot air to flow out of the chimney.
Useful Expressions: be in one’s blood 是与生俱来的(或遗传的) 特性lizard 蜥蜴 take in 吸入
