Over the centuries, London’s River Thames is home to 180 of these“aits” —an ancient word meaning “small island”.
Eel Pie Island
Most famous of all of these aits is car-free, as is Eel Pie Island, which got its name from a dish on the menu of a 19th century island hotel. The island’s fame was promoted in the “swinging sixties” when, the bands—all great names of the day including Pink Floyd, The Rolling Stones —played there. A 17-year-old youth, Davy Jones, also went along well with the Eel Pie Island crowd. And everyone came to know him better as David Bowie later.
Monkey Island
Monkey Island was an ait for the royal (王室的) family. Princess Margaret and her friends held a big party in the 1960s. Writers including HG wells tended to visit this island too. It is not absolutely certain but generally believed that Monkey Island’s name came from the Old English “Monks Eyot (ait)”, because the first recorded settlers were Augustinian monks (僧侣).
Tagg’s Island
Another royal ait, Tagg’s Island, changed its name in 1872 when Thomas Tagg built the island’s Thames Hotel. The island was also a busy parking site for houseboats. Among those who rented one was the author of Peter Pan, Scotsman JM Barrie. However, it was none of those celebrities (名人) who promoted Tagg’s Island popularity, but the theater manager Frederick Westcott, who discovered Charlie Chaplin.
Oliver’s Island
Masses of birds call this island home, everything from Canadian geese to cormorants and herons. There’s an unsolved puzzle connected to Oliver’s Island. The story goes that a secret tunnel leads from the island to the Bull’s Head pub in Chiswick as an escape route. Maybe it’s true, though plenty have tried to find it without success. Ah, and the island’s name That’s down to Oliver Cromwell, the great England leader, who supposedly took refuge (难民) there.

After twenty-two years’ raising three children, I was about to be introduced to an unfamiliar concept: the empty nest. Obviously, this was now my time. My time to dive into new experiences, explore the world and spend more time in writing. Why, then, was I not excited
My oldest child had just begun life on her own; the other two were attending college 1,100 miles away. I missed them all terribly. My husband and I had moved to a neighboring state for a job opportunity. We hadn’t yet met neighbors or made new friends, and most of my colleagues were only accessible through an Internet connection. I began to feel hopeless. I wasn’t quite sure how to move forward.
“Why don’t we go for a walk ” my husband suggested.
Then we discovered a track only a short drive from our apartment. The paved track winded along a river lined with bushes and towering trees. Ducks lazed on the riverbanks. Often, a blue heron (鹭) stood motionless on a rock in the center of the river. These small messages of nature provided me with a peaceful distraction, but only slightly lifted me out of my problems.
Still, I continued to walk the path.
One cloudy morning, I hiked up the track, and I saw an elderly, gray-haired woman holding the handle of her walking stick. She sped by me in the opposite direction like a marathon runner. I turned around to catch another glimpse of this one-woman wonder. She was definitely moving forward. She wasn’t letting anything hold her back. Certainly not her age.
That’s when it hit me. My fellow track users were pushing past whatever challenges they were experiencing. Why, then, was I not doing the same My nest may have been empty, but it didn’t have to be joyless. There I made a decision. I would rush home and fill my empty nest with joy.
29. Why was the author not excited according to the first two paragraphs
A. She just felt lonely and empty.
B. She had too much time to spare.
C. She couldn’t contact her colleagues.
D. She hadn’t adapted to her new house.
30. What does the underlined word “distraction” mean in the fourth paragraph
A. Solution. B. Relief. C. Influence. D. Strength.
31. Which of the following best describes the old woman
A. Patient. B. Independent. C. Athletic. D. Strong-willed.

As we all know, Los Angeles has many highways. It’s also a city in the world where big cats wander wild inside the city boundaries. But big cats and highways do not mix. That is why Los Angeles will construct one of the world’s wildlife passages to protect these cats.
The cats mentioned above are mountain lions. They live in the Santa Monica Mountains. Their numbers don’t change much. Their habitat is mostly untouched wilderness, full of deer, the lions’ main food. The ecology of their mountains is healthy, thanks to their existence at the top of the food chain. Yet genetic (基因的) worsening can be just as deadly.
Route 101 cuts the Santa Monica Mountains off from a larger wilderness to the North. The result is a trapped population in the South and genetic worsening. A study in 2016 found that, considering their natural environment, the Santa Monica mountain lions’ chances of extinction in 50 years would be 15-22%, in contrast to 99.7% because of their genetic worsening.
Another study found that the big cats were suffering physical damage: a 90-degree kink (结) in the tail and problems in sexual organs (器官). In the early 1990s biologists found that Florida puma, a closely related animal, had the same genetic weaknesses. The Florida puma escaped extinction only thanks to the introduction of females brought from Texas to refresh the gene pool.
California does not need to go that far like Florida. There are healthy mountain-lion populations north of the Santa Monica Mountains separated by the road. But hidden cameras show the animals stood at the side of the highway, not daring to cross. And the construction of the passage will largely solve the problem.
The animals become adults at 2.5 to 3 years and have babies every two years. So within ten years of the passage’s completion, the grandchildren of the first mating (交配) beyond the mountains could have babies. Genetically, even a few matings would make a difference. “The passage will definitely save the mountain lion,” thinks Paul Edelman of the Mountains Recreation and Conservation Authority.
33. What is the major threat to these mountain lions
A. Habitat loss. B. Lack of food sources.
C. Genetic worsening. D. Decreased female numbers.
34. What is paragraph 4 mainly about
A. The emergency of the problem.
B. Comparison between the two animals.
C. The problems the mountain lions are facing.
D. Solution to mountain lions' potential extinction.
35. What is likely to happen after the passage’s completion
A. The mountain lions will be free from extinction.
B. The problem of genetic worsening can be largely solved.
C. Los Angeles will own the only wildlife passage in the world.
D. The grandchildren of the first mating will be born within 10 years.
36. What is Paul Edelman’s attitude to the wildlife passage
A. Positive. B. Negative. C. Doubtful. D. Uninterested.

In November, “NFT” was chosen as 2021's “Word of the Year” by Collins Dictionary. NFT is short for Non-Fungible Token. It is a “one-of-a-kind” property in the digital world that can be bought and sold like any other piece of property but has no tangible (可触摸的) form. Now, NFTs are becoming popular in the art world.
Unlike the traditional artworks that are made by hand and have their own special technique, digital arts can be copied and gained for free. But NFTs could provide a digital certificate (证明), showing the ownership of a unique virtual or physical artwork.
“In the digital world, you wouldn't know if something is a copy of something else because the copy is almost perfect. The NFT was the first to prove who owns this property,” said Pindar Wong, chairman of Internet financial infrastructure consultancy VeriFi.
Along with protecting ownership, NFTs allow the owner to get a payment each time his/her work is sold. The artwork itself still belongs to the owner, and the buyers can get limited rights to show the digital artwork. So whenever the NFTs are sold, each transaction (交易) can only be made with the owner.
“NFTs can ensure that owners, including artists or musicians, can have a part of the income from every transaction, which could encourage their creations,” said Sylvia Wang, a consultant at business-to-business platform ArtBiz Asia.
That's why many experts believe that NFTs can greatly change the art industry. According to the latest report, in the first half of 2021, the sales of NFT digital artworks reached $ 2.5 billion, an increase from just $13.7 million for the same period in 2020.
US artist Mike Winkelmann said that with the help of NFT technology, the art field has entered a new time. He created a digital work of art — Everydays: The First 5, 000 Days. In March, it was sold for $ 69 million.
37. What is NFT
A. A piece of artwork. B. A kind of property.
C. A useful dictionary. D. A copy of something else.
38. What can we know about digital artworks
A. They have tangible forms. B. They hardly have any value.
C. They are very easy to copy. D. It's easy to identify their owners.
39. What does Sylvia Wang agree with
A. NFTs could largely benefit owners.
B. The creator can't get paid for digital works.
C. NFTs have the chance to replace real artworks.
D. Buyers have no right to use the digital artworks.
40. What could be a suitable title for the text
A. The Charm of Digital Art B. Hot Words of the Year 2021
C. Digital Art Changing the Art Field D. NFT Creating Value in Digital Art

A
Over the centuries, London’s River Thames is home to 180 of these“aits” —an ancient word meaning “small island”.
Eel Pie Island
Most famous of all of these aits is car-free, as is Eel Pie Island, which got its name from a dish on the menu of a 19th century island hotel. The island’s fame was promoted in the “swinging sixties” when, the bands—all great names of the day including Pink Floyd, The Rolling Stones —played there. A 17-year-old youth, Davy Jones, also went along well with the Eel Pie Island crowd. And everyone came to know him better as David Bowie later.
Monkey Island
Monkey Island was an ait for the royal (王室的) family. Princess Margaret and her friends held a big party in the 1960s. Writers including HG wells tended to visit this island too. It is not absolutely certain but generally believed that Monkey Island’s name came from the Old English “Monks Eyot (ait)”, because the first recorded settlers were Augustinian monks (僧侣).
Tagg’s Island
Another royal ait, Tagg’s Island, changed its name in 1872 when Thomas Tagg built the island’s Thames Hotel. The island was also a busy parking site for houseboats. Among those who rented one was the author of Peter Pan, Scotsman JM Barrie. However, it was none of those celebrities (名人) who promoted Tagg’s Island popularity, but the theater manager Frederick Westcott, who discovered Charlie Chaplin.
Oliver’s Island
Masses of birds call this island home, everything from Canadian geese to cormorants and herons. There’s an unsolved puzzle connected to Oliver’s Island. The story goes that a secret tunnel leads from the island to the Bull’s Head pub in Chiswick as an escape route. Maybe it’s true, though plenty have tried to find it without success. Ah, and the island’s name That’s down to Oliver Cromwell, the great England leader, who supposedly took refuge (难民) there.

After twenty-two years’ raising three children, I was about to be introduced to an unfamiliar concept: the empty nest. Obviously, this was now my time. My time to dive into new experiences, explore the world and spend more time in writing. Why, then, was I not excited
My oldest child had just begun life on her own; the other two were attending college 1,100 miles away. I missed them all terribly. My husband and I had moved to a neighboring state for a job opportunity. We hadn’t yet met neighbors or made new friends, and most of my colleagues were only accessible through an Internet connection. I began to feel hopeless. I wasn’t quite sure how to move forward.
“Why don’t we go for a walk ” my husband suggested.
Then we discovered a track only a short drive from our apartment. The paved track winded along a river lined with bushes and towering trees. Ducks lazed on the riverbanks. Often, a blue heron (鹭) stood motionless on a rock in the center of the river. These small messages of nature provided me with a peaceful distraction, but only slightly lifted me out of my problems.
Still, I continued to walk the path.
One cloudy morning, I hiked up the track, and I saw an elderly, gray-haired woman holding the handle of her walking stick. She sped by me in the opposite direction like a marathon runner. I turned around to catch another glimpse of this one-woman wonder. She was definitely moving forward. She wasn’t letting anything hold her back. Certainly not her age.
That’s when it hit me. My fellow track users were pushing past whatever challenges they were experiencing. Why, then, was I not doing the same My nest may have been empty, but it didn’t have to be joyless. There I made a decision. I would rush home and fill my empty nest with joy.
29. Why was the author not excited according to the first two paragraphs
A. She just felt lonely and empty.
B. She had too much time to spare.
C. She couldn’t contact her colleagues.
D. She hadn’t adapted to her new house.
30. What does the underlined word “distraction” mean in the fourth paragraph
A. Solution. B. Relief. C. Influence. D. Strength.
31. Which of the following best describes the old woman
A. Patient. B. Independent. C. Athletic. D. Strong-willed.
32. What is the best title of the passage
A. A Track of Hope
B. Facing Empty Nest
C. An Amazing Woman
D. Meeting Challenges
【答案】29. A 30. B 31. D 32. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章通过讲述作者自己“空巢”后的生活，最后感悟到作者的巢可能是空的，但它不应该是不快乐的。作者做了一个决定，用欢乐填满她的空巢。
【29题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段中“After twenty-two years’ raising three children, I was about to be introduced to an unfamiliar concept: the empty nest.(在养育了三个孩子二十二年后，我即将接触到一个陌生的概念: 空巢。)”和第二段“My oldest child had just begun life on her own; the other two were attending college 1,100 miles away. I missed them all terribly. My husband and I had moved to a neighboring state for a job opportunity. We hadn’t yet met neighbors or made new friends, and most of my colleagues were only accessible through an Internet connection. I began to feel hopeless. I wasn’t quite sure how to move forward.(我最大的孩子刚刚开始独立生活；另外两人在1100英里外的大学上学。我非常想念他们。我和丈夫为了找工作搬到邻近的州去了。我们还没有认识邻居或新朋友，我的大多数同事只能通过互联网联系。我开始感到绝望。我不太确定该如何前进)”可推知作者不兴奋地原因是，孩子们都离开了家，而自己因为工作原因远离同事朋友，作者感到孤独和空虚。故选A项。
【30题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第四段中“but only slightly lifted me out of my problems.(但只稍微让我摆脱了我的问题)”可知是大自然的小信息给作者提供了一种平静的解脱，让作者稍微拜托了自己的问题，由此可推知，划线单词distraction在此处是“解脱”之意，与B项“Relief.(解脱)”意思一样。故选B项。
【31题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中“She sped by me in the opposite direction like a marathon runner. I turned around to catch another glimpse of this one-woman wonder. She was definitely moving forward. She wasn’t letting anything hold her back. Certainly not her age.(她向相反的方向飞驰而过，像个马拉松运动员。我转过身去，想再看一眼这个属于一个女人的奇迹。她肯定是在前进。她不会让任何事阻碍她。当然不是她的年龄)”可知，虽然老妇人虽然年纪大了，但是依然在前进，所以是意志坚强的。故选D项。
【32题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文可知，以及最后一段中“My fellow track users were pushing past whatever challenges they were experiencing.(我的小路同行者都在努力克服他们所经历的任何挑战)”可知，本文主要讲述了作者因为“空巢”而感到空虚寂寞，但是在一条小路上看到一个老妇人坚持向前前进而感悟到，生活应该要充满希望，所以最好的标题应该是“希望之路”。故选A项。
C
As we all know, Los Angeles has many highways. It’s also a city in the world where big cats wander wild inside the city boundaries. But big cats and highways do not mix. That is why Los Angeles will construct one of the world’s wildlife passages to protect these cats.
The cats mentioned above are mountain lions. They live in the Santa Monica Mountains. Their numbers don’t change much. Their habitat is mostly untouched wilderness, full of deer, the lions’ main food. The ecology of their mountains is healthy, thanks to their existence at the top of the food chain. Yet genetic (基因的) worsening can be just as deadly.
Route 101 cuts the Santa Monica Mountains off from a larger wilderness to the North. The result is a trapped population in the South and genetic worsening. A study in 2016 found that, considering their natural environment, the Santa Monica mountain lions’ chances of extinction in 50 years would be 15-22%, in contrast to 99.7% because of their genetic worsening.
Another study found that the big cats were suffering physical damage: a 90-degree kink (结) in the tail and problems in sexual organs (器官). In the early 1990s biologists found that Florida puma, a closely related animal, had the same genetic weaknesses. The Florida puma escaped extinction only thanks to the introduction of females brought from Texas to refresh the gene pool.
California does not need to go that far like Florida. There are healthy mountain-lion populations north of the Santa Monica Mountains, separated by the road. But hidden cameras show the animals stood at the side of the highway, not daring to cross. And the construction of the passage will largely solve the problem.
The animals become adults at 2.5 to 3 years and have babies every two years. So within ten years of the passage’s completion, the grandchildren of the first mating (交配) beyond the mountains could have babies. Genetically, even a few matings would make a difference. “The passage will definitely save the mountain lion,” thinks Paul Edelman of the Mountains Recreation and Conservation Authority.
33. What is the major threat to these mountain lions
A. Habitat loss. B. Lack of food sources.
C. Genetic worsening. D. Decreased female numbers.
34. What is paragraph 4 mainly about
A. The emergency of the problem.
B. Comparison between the two animals.
C. The problems the mountain lions are facing.
D. Solution to mountain lions' potential extinction.
35. What is likely to happen after the passage’s completion
A. The mountain lions will be free from extinction.
B. The problem of genetic worsening can be largely solved.
C. Los Angeles will own the only wildlife passage in the world.
D. The grandchildren of the first mating will be born within 10 years.
36. What is Paul Edelman’s attitude to the wildlife passage
A. Positive. B. Negative. C. Doubtful. D. Uninterested.
【答案】33. C 34. C 35. B 36. A

In November, “NFT” was chosen as 2021's “Word of the Year” by Collins Dictionary. NFT is short for Non-Fungible Token. It is a “one-of-a-kind” property in the digital world that can be bought and sold like any other piece of property but has no tangible (可触摸的) form. Now, NFTs are becoming popular in the art world.
Unlike the traditional artworks that are made by hand and have their own special technique, digital arts can be copied and gained for free. But NFTs could provide a digital certificate (证明), showing the ownership of a unique virtual or physical artwork.
“In the digital world, you wouldn't know if something is a copy of something else because the copy is almost perfect. The NFT was the first to prove who owns this property,” said Pindar Wong, chairman of Internet financial infrastructure consultancy VeriFi.
Along with protecting ownership, NFTs allow the owner to get a payment each time his/her work is sold. The artwork itself still belongs to the owner, and the buyers can get limited rights to show the digital artwork. So whenever the NFTs are sold, each transaction (交易) can only be made with the owner.
“NFTs can ensure that owners, including artists or musicians, can have a part of the income from every transaction, which could encourage their creations,” said Sylvia Wang, a consultant at business-to-business platform ArtBiz Asia.
That's why many experts believe that NFTs can greatly change the art industry. According to the latest report, in the first half of 2021, the sales of NFT digital artworks reached $ 2.5 billion, an increase from just $13.7 million for the same period in 2020.
US artist Mike Winkelmann said that with the help of NFT technology, the art field has entered a new time. He created a digital work of art — Everydays: The First 5, 000 Days. In March, it was sold for $ 69 million.
37. What is NFT
A. A piece of artwork. B. A kind of property.
C. A useful dictionary. D. A copy of something else.
38. What can we know about digital artworks
A. They have tangible forms. B. They hardly have any value.
C. They are very easy to copy. D. It's easy to identify their owners.
39. What does Sylvia Wang agree with
A. NFTs could largely benefit owners.
B. The creator can't get paid for digital works.
C. NFTs have the chance to replace real artworks.
D. Buyers have no right to use the digital artworks.
40. What could be a suitable title for the text
A. The Charm of Digital Art B. Hot Words of the Year 2021
C. Digital Art Changing the Art Field D. NFT Creating Value in Digital Art
【答案】37. B 38. C 39. A 40. D
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文，文章主要介绍了NFT给数字艺术带来了价值。数字艺术可以复制，而且很容易免费获取，但NFT可以提供一种数字证书，证明拥有人对所创造的独特虚拟或有形资产的所有权。
【37题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“It is a “one-of-a-kind” property in the digital world that can be bought and sold like any other piece of property but has no tangible (可触摸的) form.(NFT是数字世界中“独一无二”的资产，可以像其他任何资产一样买卖，但这种资产是无形的)”可知，NFT是一种资产。故选B项。
【38题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“Unlike the traditional artworks that are made by hand and have their own special technique, digital arts can be copied and gained for free.(不像传统的艺术品那样靠手工制作且有自身的独特技术，数字艺术可以复制，而且很容易免费获取)”可知，数字艺术作品很容易复制。故选C项。
【39题详解】
推理判断题。根据第五段“NFTs can ensure that owners, including artists or musicians, can have a part of the income from every transaction, which could encourage their creations(NTF能够确保包括艺术家或作曲家在内的创作者们在每次转让中都能获得部分收入，这将鼓励他们的创作)”可推断，Sylvia Wang认为NFT可以极大地造福于创作者。故选A项。
【40题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文，结合第二段中“But NFTs could provide a digital certificate (证明), showing the ownership of a unique virtual or physical artwork.(但NFT可以提供一种数字证书，证明拥有人对所创造的独特虚拟或有形资产的所有权)”可知，本文主要介绍NFT给数字艺术带来了价值。故选D项。
