The national statistics showing a decline in bike ridership are a bit misleading. It is indeed down in rural and suburban areas — but cities tell a different story. Biking in cities has exploded recently with millions of Americans mounting bicycles for the first time in years. Is it the start of a long-term trend
There are good reasons to hope so. Transportation is the largest source of greenhouse emissions (排放) in the U.S. and cars and light trucks account for 58 percent of transportation emissions. Switching from cars to bikes cuts emissions much faster than switching to electric cars.
And motor vehicle accidents still kill more than 39,000 Americans a year — including more than 700 cyclists. Some 70 percent of people surveyed in the U.S. say they’re interested in biking. Why don’t they bike more It comes down to safety. Half of the people surveyed said they were, understandably, too afraid to bike on the street.
Putting a painted biking path on a 40-mph road is not going to appeal to potential cyclists afraid of a close encounter with a car. Bike safety isn’t about painting bike paths on every street. It’s about creating bike networks that can take you safely from point A to point B. Good bike networks are made of things like greenways, protected bike paths with physical barriers separating riders from cars, and quiet streets.
The good news is that bike networks were expanding in the U.S. years ago. Between 1991 and 2021, there was a six-fold increase in painted, off-road paths, from 5,904 miles to 39,329 miles. And the increase in protected bike paths is even more dramatic: Their total length, nationwide, went from only 34 miles in 2006 to 425 miles in 2018. In fact, cities in the West and East are leading the pack, but the trend is nationwide.
4. What can we learn from Paragraph 1
A. There is a decline in traveling.
B. America is facing an economic decline.
C. More and more people ride bikes in cities.
D. Biking cost is on an increase across America.
5. What can help to improve cyclists’ safety best
A. A speed limit.
B. A network of bike paths.
C. More traffic lights.
D. Painted areas for cycling.
6. How does the author show the expansion of bike networks
A. By analyzing cases.
B. By comparing results.
C. By listing figures.
D. By showing the effect.
7. What’s the main idea of the passage
A. America is becoming more bike-friendly.
B. Travelling by bike helps reduce pollution.
C. Reasons and solutions for biking accidents.
D. Americans are troubled with biking problems.
【答案】4. C 5. B 6. C 7. A
【解析】

【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“Biking in cities has exploded recently with millions of Americans mounting bicycles for the first time in years. (近年来，随着数百万美国人多年来首次骑自行车，城市自行车运动迅速发展)”可知，城市里，越来越多的人骑自行车。故选C项。

【6题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“The good news is that bike networks were expanding in the U.S. years ago. Between 1991 and 2021, there was a six-fold increase in painted，off-road paths, from 5,904 miles to 39,329 miles. And the increase in protected bike paths is even more dramatic: Their total length, nationwide, went from only 34 miles in 2006 to 425 miles in 2018. (好消息是，几年前美国的自行车网络正在扩张。1991至2021期间，涂漆的越野道路增加了六倍，从5904英里增加到39329英里。受保护自行车道的增加更为显著：全国范围内的总长度从2006年的34英里增加到2018年的425英里)”可知，作者通过列出数字来展示自行车网络的扩张。故选C项。
【7题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段“Biking in cities has exploded recently with millions of Americans mounting bicycles for the first time in years. (近年来，随着数百万美国人多年来首次骑自行车，城市自行车运动迅速发展)”以及最后一段“The good news is that bike networks were expanding in the U.S. years ago.(好消息是，几年前美国的自行车网络正在扩张)”以及“In fact, cities in the West and East are leading the pack, but the trend is nationwide.(事实上，西部和东部的城市领先，但趋势是全国性的)”可知，本文主要介绍了在美国，城市自行车运动迅速发展，良好的自行车网络的建设使得骑自行车变得更具安全性，即美国对自行车越来越友好。故选A项。
C
Leisure is the prize, right We work hard, so we want to play hard; we look forward to our time off, believing that the more leisure time we have, the better life will be.
However research shows that both having and deciding how to spend leisure time can be very stressful. Some people feel enormous pressure to make the best use of their free time with the best choices. But this pressure to maximize our fun might impede the enjoyment of leisure itself.
Two-thousand years ago, concepts of work and leisure were associated with slavery(奴隶制)and freedom, respectively. In Ancient Greece, most of work was done by slaves, while wealthier parts of society pursued other activities. Leisure was an active state of mind. Good leisure meant playing sports, learning music theory, debating with qualified partners, doing philosophy, etc. Leisure was not easy, but it was supposed to be satisfying.
A shift occurred when the Romans started viewing leisure as a way of getting back energy in preparation for more work. By the 1800s, the kind of leisure that showed social class had shifted too; the wealthy led extremely free lives. A popular example is Walter Benjamin’s description of the fashion, around 1893, to walk through streets with a turtle (乌龟)on a chain.
Today we’re seeing yet another change: a lack of leisure time now operates as a powerful social class symbol. On Twitter, celebrities complain about having no life and being in desperate need of a vacation. In the workplace, being part of the long-hours working culture is still seen by many as an honour.
Some people really struggle to enjoy time off. People from America support the belief that leisure is wasteful. Only 14% of Americans take two weeks’ vacation in a row, a finding in keeping with the overwork culture. The same study reports that as of 2017, 54% of American workers didn’t use up their vacation time, leaving 662 million days reserved for leisure unused.
8. What does the underlined word “impede” in paragraph 2 mean
A. Increase. B. Prevent. C. Provide. D. Include.
9. Which of the following was good leisure in Ancient Greece
A. Eating tasty food.
B. Cleaning the house.
C. Having a good sleep.
D. Reading works of literature.
10. Why does the writer mention the popular example in paragraph 4
A. To describe a fashion.
B. To criticize the wealthy.
C. To show a type of leisure.
D. To introduce Romans’ lives.
11. What can we infer from the figures in paragraph 6
A. Many Americans work on their holidays.
B. Americans enjoy taking longer vacations.
C. American workers enjoy their lives and have fun.
D. Tourism in the United States is developing slowly.
【答案】8. B 9. D 10. C 11. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章讲述我们期待着休息的时间，相信我们有更多的闲暇时间，生活就会更好，然而有研究表明对休闲时光期待过高可能会阻碍我们享受休闲时光。
【8题详解】
词义猜测题。根据划线处上文“However,research shows that both having and deciding how to spend leisure time can be very stressful. Some people feel enormous pressure to make the best use of their free time with the best choices.( 然而，研究表明，拥有和决定如何度过闲暇时间都是非常有压力的。有些人感到巨大的压力，要充分利用他们的空闲时间，做出最好的选择)”可知过高的期待休闲时间会让人感到有压力，反而会阻碍享受闲暇时光，可猜测impede意为“阻碍，妨碍”，故选B。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“In Ancient Greece，most of work was done by slaves，while wealthier parts of society pursued other activities. Leisure was an active state of mind. Good leisure meant playing sports, learning music theory, debating with qualified partners, doing philosophy, etc.( 在古希腊，大多数工作是由奴隶完成的，而社会中较富裕的部分从事其他活动。闲暇是一种活跃的精神状态。好的休闲意味着做运动，学习音乐理论，与合格的伙伴辩论，研究哲学等等)”可知，在古希腊闲暇是活跃精神状态。由此推知，阅读文学作品属于古希腊好的休闲活动。故选D。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段“By the 1800s, the kind of leisure that showed social class had shifted too; the wealthy led extremely free lives. A popular example is Walter Benjamin’s description of the fashion, around 1893, to walk through streets with a turtle(乌龟)on a chain. (到了19世纪，显示社会阶层的休闲方式也发生了变化；富人过着极其自由的生活。一个流行的例子是沃尔特·本杰明(Walter Benjamin)对1893年前后的一种时尚的描述，人们用链子拴着一只乌龟走在街上)”可知，这个流行的例子是休闲方式中的一种，故选C。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据第六段“Only 14% of Americans take two weeks’ vacation in a row, a finding in keeping with the overwork culture. The same study reports that as of 2017, 54% of American workers didn’t use up their vacation time, leaving 662 million days reserved for leisure unused.( 只有14%的美国人会连续休两周的假，这一发现与过度工作的文化相吻合。同一项研究报告称，截至2017年，54%的美国员工没有休完他们的假期，剩下6.62亿天的休闲时间没有使用)”推知，许多美国人在假期工作。故选A。
D
On January 1st, 2018, “gaming disorder” — in which games are played uncontrollably, despite causing harm — gained recognition from the World Health Organization (WHO). Last year, China, the world’s biggest gaming market, announced new rules limiting children to just a single hour of play a day. Clinics are appearing around the world, promising to cure patients of their habit.
Are games really addictive Psychologists have different opinions. The case for the defence is that this is just another moral panic. Similar warnings have been given about television, rock’ n’ roll, jazz, comic books, and even novels. As the newest form of mass media, gaming is merely enduring (忍受) its own time before it finally stops being controversial.
However, some argue that unlike rock bands or novelists, games developers have both the motive and the means to engineer their products to make them addictive. For one thing, the business-model has changed. In the old days games were bought once and for all. But these days, games are free and money is earned from purchases of in-game goods, which ties playtime directly to developers’ income. For another, games makers combine psychological theory and data, which helps them maximize the playtime. Smartphones and modern video game machines use their permanent Internet connections to send gameplay data back to developers. That allows products to be constantly adjusted to increase spending on games.
The gaming industry should realize that, in the real world, it has a problem, and that problem is growing. Now that gaming addiction comes with an official WHO recognition, diagnoses (诊断) become more common. Clinics are already reporting booming business, as lockdowns have given gamers more time to spend with their hobby. And being put together in the public mind, fairly or not, with gambling will not do the industry any favours.
12. What is the function of Paragraph 1
A. To arouse the readers’ interest about the topic.
B. To inform the readers of the harmful effects of games.
C. To discuss whether it is necessary to panic about games.
D. To show growing public concern about the problem of games.
13. Why is television, together with other media forms, mentioned in Paragraph 2
A. To prove that the panic over games will fade away.
B. To show that they are as highly addictive as games.
C. To compare the differences among these media forms.
D. To argue that these media forms are not harmful at all.
14. How do games developers make games addictive
A. They don’t charge players for in-game goods.
B. They adjust products based on received data.
C. They reward top players with more playtime.
D. They keep players’ video game machines updated.
15. In the last paragraph, the author aims to ______.
A. offer a suggestion B. make a prediction
C. give a warning D. put forward a solution
【答案】12. D 13. A 14. B 15. C
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇议论文。“游戏障碍”被世界卫生组织列为疾病。不同心理学家就游戏是否真的让人上瘾这一问题展开讨论。
【12题详解】
推理判断题。由第一段“On January 1st, 2018, “gaming disorder” — in which games are played uncontrollably, despite causing harm — gained recognition from the World ealth Organization (WHO). (2018年1月1日，世界卫生组织认证了“游戏障碍”——它指的是人们不受控制地玩游戏，尽管会造成伤害)”和“Clinics are appearing around the world, promising to cure patients of their habit. (世界各地都出现了承诺治愈患者习惯的诊所，)”可知，“游戏障碍”已经被官方列为疾病，甚至于出现了很多诊所来治疗此问题。这些现象都说明了大众对游戏问题越来越关注。故选D。
【13题详解】
推理判断题。由第二段“The case for the defence is that this is just another moral panic. Similar warnings have been given about television, rock’ n’ roll, jazz, comic books, and even novels. (辩方认为这仅仅是另一种道德恐慌，电视、摇滚乐、爵士乐、漫画书甚至小说也发出了类似的警告)”可知，辩方认为游戏上瘾和电视、摇滚乐等其它都只是道德恐慌。结合段尾“As the newest form of mass media, gaming is merely enduring (忍受) its own time before it finally stops being controversial. (作为一种新型的大众媒体，游戏在它最终停止争议之前，只是在经历它自己的时代)”可推断出，引用电视等其它媒体形式目的是为了强调游戏并没有那么恐慌，它和其它媒体方式一样，都有自己存在的时间，最终这种恐慌会消失。故选A。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。由第三段“Smartphones and modern video game machines use their permanent Internet connections to send gameplay data back to developers. That allows products to be constantly adjusted to increase spending on games. (智能手机和现代电子游戏机利用自身永久性的互联网连接将游戏数据传回开发者。这可以让产品能够不断调整来增加游戏支出)”可之，游戏开发者是通过接收到的数据不断调整产品，让产品越来越受吸引欢迎。故选B。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“The gaming industry should realize that, in the real world, it has a problem, and that problem is growing. (游戏行业应该意识到在现实世界中，游戏存在一个问题，而且这个问题还在不断恶化)”和“And being put together in the public mind, fairly or not, with gambling will not do the industry any favours. (而在大众心中，无论公平与否，与赌博放在一起都不会给游戏行业带来任何好处)”可知，作者对游戏呈负面态度，是在给游戏行业提出警告，大众不会认同和赌博挂钩的行业。故选C。
第二节 （共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分）
阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Science shows that stretching (拉伸) is essential after exercise. Stretching lengthens and mobilizes the connective tissue around your muscle. What’s more, stretching helps your blood flow and even relieves your stress. ____16____
You could feel sick. You won’t be surprised to know that when you exercise, you raise your heart rate for a period of time. While it’s great to get that blood flowing, it’s just as important to get your heart rate back to a normal level after the workout is over. ____17____ As your heart is beating faster and your body temperature is higher, you could pass out or feel sick if you stop too fast. Stretching after physical activity allows a gradual decrease at the end of the episode.
Your muscles will likely become stiffer and more sore. When you exercise your muscles, it produces lactic acid (乳酸), which is actually what causes your muscles to become sore. When you rest between periods of exercise, your body naturally breaks down that lactic acid. One thing that helps your body get rid of that lactic acid ____18____. Stretching helps you distribute oxygen throughout your body, which can reduce lactic acid production and rid your muscles of any accumulation of lactic acid.
____19____ Flexibility is closely related to injury risk. Poor flexibility will cause you to have muscles that get tired quicker and joints that are more likely to suffer from injury. Besides, your weakened range of motion will lead to less blood and nutrients to your joints. ____20____ Sticking to stretching exercise after physical activity can hopefully improve your flexibility.
A. You’ll be at risk of injury.
B. You guessed it: Stretching.
C. You’ll improve your flexibility by stretching.
D. It does wonders for both your physical and mental health.
E. This is also known in the fitness world as “cooling down”.
F. There are harmful side effects if you don’t stretch after exercise.
G That’s why people often feel pain in their “weight bearing” joints like knees and hips.
【答案】16. F 17. E 18. B 19. A 20. G
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了运动结束后不做拉伸会带来一些不好的结果。
【16题详解】
根据前文“Science shows that stretching (拉伸) is essential after exercise. Stretching lengthens and mobilizes the connective tissue around your muscle. What’s more, stretching helps your blood flow and even relieves your stress.”（科学研究表明，运动后的伸展运动是必不可少的。拉伸可以延长和调动你肌肉周围的结缔组织。更重要的是，伸展运动可以帮助你的血液流动，甚至减轻你的压力。）讲述了运动结束后的拉伸运动的好处。下文“You could feel sick. ”（你会觉得恶心。）描述了不做拉伸带来的结果。所以作为本段的结尾可以描述，运动结束不做拉伸会带来一些不好的结果。F项“运动后不做伸展运动会有副作用。”，符合题意，故选F。
【17题详解】
根据前文“You won’t be surprised to know that when you exercise, you raise your heart rate for a period of time. While it’s great to get that blood flowing, it’s just as important to get your heart rate back to a normal level after the workout is over. ”（当你锻炼的时候，你会在一段时间内提高你的心率，你不会感到惊讶。虽然让血液流动是很好的，但是在锻炼结束后让你的心率恢复到正常水平也同样重要。）讲到运动结束后要让心率恢复到正常的水平是重要的。E项“这在健身界也被称为“降温”。this指代前文“to get your heart rate back to a normal level ”，符合题意，故选E。
【18题详解】
根据前文“One thing that helps your body get rid of that lactic acid ”（有什么东西能帮助你的身体摆脱乳酸？）可知，空处应讲述这种东西是什么。B项“你猜对了，（就是）伸展运动。”符合题意，故选B。
【19题详解】
根据下文“Flexibility is closely related to injury risk.”（柔韧性与受伤风险密切相关。）提到了身体的柔韧程度关系到受伤风险的大小。结合第一段最后一句内容，可知接下来的内容讲述了运动结束后不做拉伸会带来不好的结果，所以空白处应该描述你会经历受伤的风险。A项“你会有受伤的危险。”符合题意，故选A。
【20题详解】
根据前文“Poor flexibility will cause you to have muscles that get tired quicker and joints that are more likely to suffer from injury. Besides, your weakened range of motion will lead to less blood and nutrients to your joints. ”（柔韧性差会导致你的肌肉更容易疲劳，关节更容易受伤。此外，你活动范围的减弱会导致你的关节血液和营养物质的减少。）提到了柔韧性差会让肌肉更容易疲劳，关节更容易受伤，同时活动范围的减弱会导致关节血液和营养物质的减少，所以空处应承接前文，讲述这种情况的具体表现。G项“这就是为什么人们经常感到膝盖和臀部等“承重”关节疼痛的原因。”语义上承接前文，符合题意，故选G。

47. 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Every time my family makes special plans, they end up getting canceled due to some incidents. Every time that happens, my parents would tell us to look on the bright side and make the best of a bad situation. However, I never managed to do that until this spring.
On a sunny morning last month , my aunt Jen invited us to the annual outdoor spring celebration at her farm. Since my family hadn’t done anything different for ages, the whole family was very excited and everyone pulled his own weight to make sure everything goes as planned. In order to add more fun to this exciting trip, my little sister Indi and my little brother Tex even joined me to make an extra-special treat — cupcakes.
The picnic intended to go from twelve to three. After double checking the car, my parents loaded books,games,picnic blanket,and a whole big pack of food into the car. The moment of our departure finally arrived as the clock struck 11. However,everything went wrong the instant we bravely drove off. First, we had to stop and wait for Tex to find his shoes. Next, as we were driving down the road, we had to go back to the house because my mom forgot her wallet. Then, about halfway to Aunt Jen’s house, we had to drive far out of our way to find a place for Indi to use the bathroom. After that, my parents decided it’d be quicker to take this one little side country road as a shortcut. But the shortcut ended up turning into a long cut! We drove forever on a winding road with wildflower field spreading endlessly out on both sides and the deep green pine trees going on and on within our sight. Spotting hundreds of birds flying in the sky, I was seized by a growing sense of desperation for I entirely had no idea when we could hit our destination.

________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】Just then, our car started making a strange noise. Obviously, there was something wrong with it and we had to pull over and call roadside service. Dad comforted us and claimed that help would arrive soon. But help did not arrive soon at all. So frustrated was I that I felt the whole world crumbled with tears streaming down my cheeks. Then came my dad’s voice. Look on the bright side, said Dad. Our car couldn’t have picked a prettier place to break down. Mom agreed, getting out the picnic blanket and suggested walking over to that gorgeous wildflower field and have our own springtime celebration.
At first, we kids weren’t exactly jumping up and down about the idea. We carried stuff over to the field, dragged ourselves down on the picnic blanket, and grumbled. But as we started looking around, cool things started happening. Hundreds of butterflies were dancing on the boundless wildflower field, looking like a beautiful scroll spreading out just for us. With a whooshing sound, a flock of birds rose up out of the pine trees, and flew around and around in the most amazing wavelike patterns, right over our heads! Just right there, we enjoyed our hand-made special treats, which were so delicious! It ended up one of the most amazing picnics in my life.

A
Four new books to read
The books that are included in this list can meet your reading needs at any time of year.
Nobody Will Tell You This but Me
Bess Kalb
In this book, the author shares the advice her beloved grandmother Bobby left her. Bobby was a powerful woman who should never be underestimated, and she was very knowledgeable about the family’s traditions and secrets. The book proves that family bonds can endure through generations and beyond death.
We Came Here to Shine
Susie Orman Schnall
We Came Here to Shine focuses on the strong female friendship between an aspiring journalist and an unlucky actress at the 1939 New York World’s Fair. Leaning on each other, these two ambitious women struggled against adversity(困境) at a time when women had little say.
A Star Is Bored
Byron Lane
Favored by television star Jonathan Van Ness, this novel is partly based on the author’s experiences as the former personal assistant to Carrie Fisher, a legendary American actress.

Beyond the athletic journey, they also aimed to challenge the social standards of what females can achieve.

The national statistics showing a decline in bike ridership are a bit misleading. It is indeed down in rural and suburban areas — but cities tell a different story. Biking in cities has exploded recently with millions of Americans mounting bicycles for the first time in years. Is it the start of a long-term trend
There are good reasons to hope so. Transportation is the largest source of greenhouse emissions (排放) in the U.S., and cars and light trucks account for 58 percent of transportation emissions. Switching from cars to bikes cuts emissions much faster than switching to electric cars.
And motor vehicle accidents still kill more than 39,000 Americans a year — including more than 700 cyclists. Some 70 percent of people surveyed in the U.S. say they’re interested in biking. Why don’t they bike more It comes down to safety. Half of the people surveyed said they were, understandably, too afraid to bike on the street.
Putting a painted biking path on a 40-mph road is not going to appeal to potential cyclists afraid of a close encounter with a car. Bike safety isn’t about painting bike paths on every street. It’s about creating bike networks that can take you safely from point A to point B. Good bike networks are made of things like greenways, protected bike paths with physical barriers separating riders from cars, and quiet streets.
The good news is that bike networks were expanding in the U.S. years ago. Between 1991 and 2021, there was a six-fold increase in painted, off-road paths, from 5,904 miles to 39,329 miles. And the increase in protected bike paths is even more dramatic: Their total length, nationwide, went from only 34 miles in 2006 to 425 miles in 2018. In fact, cities in the West and East are leading the pack, but the trend is nationwide.
4. What can we learn from Paragraph 1
A. There is a decline in traveling.
B. America is facing an economic decline.
C. More and more people ride bikes in cities.
D Biking cost is on an increase across America.
5. What can help to improve cyclists’ safety best
A. A speed limit.
B. A network of bike paths.
C. More traffic lights.
D. Painted areas for cycling.
6 How does the author show the expansion of bike networks
A. By analyzing cases.
B. By comparing results.
C. By listing figures.
D. By showing the effect.
7. What’s the main idea of the passage
A. America is becoming more bike-friendly.
B. Travelling by bike helps reduce pollution.
C. Reasons and solutions for biking accidents.
D. Americans are troubled with biking problems.
C
Leisure is the prize, right We work hard, so we want to play hard; we look forward to our time off, believing that the more leisure time we have, the better life will be.
However, research shows that both having and deciding how to spend leisure time can be very stressful. Some people feel enormous pressure to make the best use of their free time with the best choices. But this pressure to maximize our fun might impede the enjoyment of leisure itself.
Two-thousand years ago, concepts of work and leisure were associated with slavery(奴隶制)and freedom, respectively. In Ancient Greece, most of work was done by slaves, while wealthier parts of society pursued other activities. Leisure was an active state of mind. Good leisure meant playing sports, learning music theory, debating with qualified partners, doing philosophy, etc. Leisure was not easy, but it was supposed to be satisfying.
A shift occurred when the Romans started viewing leisure as a way of getting back energy in preparation for more work. By the 1800s, the kind of leisure that showed social class had shifted too; the wealthy led extremely free lives. A popular example is Walter Benjamin’s description of the fashion, around 1893, to walk through streets with a turtle (乌龟)on a chain.
Today we’re seeing yet another change: a lack of leisure time now operates as a powerful social class symbol. On Twitter, celebrities complain about having no life and being in desperate need of a vacation. In the workplace, being part of the long-hours working culture is still seen by many as an honour.
Some people really struggle to enjoy time off. People from America support the belief that leisure is wasteful. Only 14% of Americans take two weeks’ vacation in a row, a finding in keeping with the overwork culture. The same study reports that as of 2017, 54% of American workers didn’t use up their vacation time, leaving 662 million days reserved for leisure unused.
8. What does the underlined word “impede” in paragraph 2 mean
A. Increase. B. Prevent. C. Provide. D. Include.
9. Which of the following was good leisure in Ancient Greece
A. Eating tasty food.
B. Cleaning the house.
C. Having a good sleep.
D. Reading works of literature.
10. Why does the writer mention the popular example in paragraph 4
A. To describe a fashion.
B. To criticize the wealthy.
C. To show a type of leisure.
D. To introduce Romans’ lives.
11. What can we infer from the figures in paragraph 6
A. Many Americans work on their holidays.
B. Americans enjoy taking longer vacations.
C. American workers enjoy their lives and have fun.
D. Tourism in the United States is developing slowly.
D
On January 1st, 2018, “gaming disorder” — in which games are played uncontrollably, despite causing harm — gained recognition from the World Health Organization (WHO). Last year, China, the world’s biggest gaming market, announced new rules limiting children to just a single hour of play a day. Clinics are appearing around the world, promising to cure patients of their habit.
Are games really addictive Psychologists have different opinions. The case for the defence is that this is just another moral panic. Similar warnings have been given about television, rock’ n’ roll, jazz, comic books, and even novels. As the newest form of mass media, gaming is merely enduring (忍受) its own time before it finally stops being controversial.
However, some argue that unlike rock bands or novelists, games developers have both the motive and the means to engineer their products to make them addictive. For one thing, the business-model has changed. In the old days games were bought once and for all. But these days, games are free and money is earned from purchases of in-game goods, which ties playtime directly to developers’ income. For another, games makers combine psychological theory and data, which helps them maximize the playtime. Smartphones and modern video game machines use their permanent Internet connections to send gameplay data back to developers. That allows products to be constantly adjusted to increase spending on games.
The gaming industry should realize that, in the real world, it has a problem, and that problem is growing. Now that gaming addiction comes with an official WHO recognition, diagnoses (诊断) become more common. Clinics are already reporting booming business, as lockdowns have given gamers more time to spend with their hobby. And being put together in the public mind, fairly or not, with gambling will not do the industry any favours.
12. What is the function of Paragraph 1
A. To arouse the readers’ interest about the topic.
B. To inform the readers of the harmful effects of games.
C. To discuss whether it is necessary to panic about games.
D. To show growing public concern about the problem of games.
13. Why is television, together with other media forms, mentioned in Paragraph 2
A. To prove that the panic over games will fade away.
B. To show that they are as highly addictive as games.
C. To compare the differences among these media forms.
D. To argue that these media forms are not harmful at all.
14 How do games developers make games addictive
A. They don’t charge players for in-game goods.
B. They adjust products based on received data.
C. They reward top players with more playtime.
D. They keep players’ video game machines updated.
15. In the last paragraph, the author aims to ______.
A. offer a suggestion B. make a prediction
C. give a warning D. put forward a solution

阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Science shows that stretching (拉伸) is essential after exercise. Stretching lengthens and mobilizes the connective tissue around your muscle. What’s more, stretching helps your blood flow and even relieves your stress. ____16____
You could feel sick. You won’t be surprised to know that when you exercise, you raise your heart rate for a period of time. While it’s great to get that blood flowing, it’s just as important to get your heart rate back to a normal level after the workout is over. ____17____ As your heart is beating faster and your body temperature is higher, you could pass out or feel sick if you stop too fast. Stretching after physical activity allows a gradual decrease at the end of the episode.
Your muscles will likely become stiffer and more sore. When you exercise your muscles, it produces lactic acid (乳酸), which is actually what causes your muscles to become sore. When you rest between periods of exercise, your body naturally breaks down that lactic acid. One thing that helps your body get rid of that lactic acid ____18____. Stretching helps you distribute oxygen throughout your body, which can reduce lactic acid production and rid your muscles of any accumulation of lactic acid.
____19____ Flexibility is closely related to injury risk. Poor flexibility will cause you to have muscles that get tired quicker and joints that are more likely to suffer from injury. Besides, your weakened range of motion will lead to less blood and nutrients to your joints. ____20____ Sticking to stretching exercise after physical activity can hopefully improve your flexibility.
A. You’ll be at risk of injury.
B. You guessed it: Stretching.
C. You’ll improve your flexibility by stretching.
D. It does wonders for both your physical and mental health.

Every time my family makes special plans, they end up getting canceled due to some incidents. Every time that happens, my parents would tell us to look on the bright side and make the best of a bad situation. However, I never managed to do that until this spring.
On a sunny morning last month , my aunt Jen invited us to the annual outdoor spring celebration at her farm. Since my family hadn’t done anything different for ages, the whole family was very excited and everyone pulled his own weight to make sure everything goes as planned. In order to add more fun to this exciting trip, my little sister Indi and my little brother Tex even joined me to make an extra-special treat — cupcakes.
The picnic intended to go from twelve to three. After double checking the car, my parents loaded books,games,picnic blanket,and a whole big pack of food into the car. The moment of our departure finally arrived as the clock struck 11. However,everything went wrong the instant we bravely drove off. First, we had to stop and wait for Tex to find his shoes. Next, as we were driving down the road, we had to go back to the house because my mom forgot her wallet. Then, about halfway to Aunt Jen’s house, we had to drive far out of our way to find a place for Indi to use the bathroom. After that, my parents decided it’d be quicker to take this one little side country road as a shortcut. But the shortcut ended up turning into a long cut! We drove forever on a winding road with wildflower field spreading endlessly out on both sides and the deep green pine trees going on and on within our sight. Spotting hundreds of birds flying in the sky, I was seized by a growing sense of desperation for I entirely had no idea when we could hit our destination.
