B
I was born with a rare disease that prevented the normal growth of my right arm. I was heart-broken at school. Those cruel experiences won’t affect me now, but back then they struck me very hard.
My parents realised playing with Lego was a great way to improve my flexibility, so they bought me a set when I was five. I built planes and cars, and even a prosthetic (义肢的) arm, though I had already decided I didn’t need a prosthetic arm — it was very expensive, and I was doing just fine.
I made one because it’s fun. I have since made several new versions. And my latest model is the most advanced and comfortable. It has a control unit that can send and receive orders from sensors on the arm to the motors, with cables that contract like muscles.
A lot of people don’t have the ability to buy a prosthetic. I hate it when people have to pay up to ?100,000 for a prosthetic. They shouldn’t pay that much — it’s not a luxury. My goal is to try to make some that more people can afford.
When I was 19, the parents of an eight-year-old boy got in touch to ask if I could build him a prosthetic. His arms and legs are underdeveloped as part of his condition, so I made two prosthetic arms using Lego units costing only ?15. His smile when he used them for the first time was very encouraging.
To me, my creations don’t necessarily tell the story of how I overcame my condition with Lego; they’re about how I overcame the tough period almost every day at school.
4. Which word best describes the author’s school life
A. Rewarding. B. Demanding. C. Unpleasant. D. Satisfactory.
5. What did the author decide to do with prosthetics
A. To make them reliable. B. To make them advanced.
C. To make them flexible. D. To make them affordable.
6. What has the author benefited from creating prosthetics
A. He has gained great popularity. B. He has become more optimistic.
C. He has enjoyed his school life. D. He has recovered his flexibility.
7. What kind of person is the author
A. He is sympathetic and creative. B. He is outgoing and adaptable.
C. He is patient but aggressive. D. He is ambitious but proud.
【答案】4. C 5. D 6. B 7. A
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇记叙文。讲述了作者患有先天残疾，在学校里过得不愉快，但他用乐高制造义肢，帮助自己和他人。
【4题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段中“I was heart-broken at school. Those cruel experiences won’t affect me now, but back then they struck me very hard. (我在学校伤心欲绝。那些残酷的经历现在不会影响到我，但当时却给了我很大的打击。)”可知，作者的学校生活并不快乐。故选C项。
【5题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段中“A lot of people don’t have the ability to buy a prosthetic. I hate it when people have to pay up to ?100,000 for a prosthetic. They shouldn’t pay that much—it’s not a luxury. My goal is to try to make some that more people can afford. (很多人没钱买假肢。我讨厌人们不得不支付高达10万欧元的假肢费用。他们不应该付那么多钱——这不是奢侈品。我的目标是让更多的人买得起。)”可知，很多人因为义肢价格昂贵而买不起，作者想要用乐高制造义肢来让更多人能负担得起。故选D项。
【6题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中“His smile when he used them for the first time was very encouraging. (当他第一次使用它们时，他的微笑非常令人鼓舞。)”及最后一段“To me, my creations don’t necessarily tell the story of how I overcame my condition with Lego; they’re about how I overcame the tough period almost every day at school. (对我来说，我的创作不一定要讲述我如何用乐高克服我的病情；它们是关于我如何克服几乎每天在学校的艰难时期。)”可知，作者创造义肢使自己变得更乐观了。故选B项。
【7题详解】
推理判断题。通读全文，根据第二段中“I built planes and cars, and even a prosthetic (义肢的) arm, though I had already decided I didn’t need a prosthetic arm—it was very expensive, and I was doing just fine. (我造了飞机和汽车，甚至还造了一只义肢，虽然我已经决定不需要义肢了，因为它很贵，但我做得很好。)”以及第四段中“My goal is to try to make some that more people can afford. (我的目标是让更多的人买得起。)”可知，作者用乐高制造义肢，说明其很有创造力。作者关注到义肢价格昂贵，普通人负担不起，于是打算用乐高制造出更多人能负担得起的义肢，说明其很有同情心。故选A项。
C
Every week, Angela looked at her recycling bin, filled with shampoo bottles and plastic containers, with mixed feelings. Sure, it was a lot of plastic, but it was going to be recycled. Or so she thought. Then, her husband sent her some articles revealing that less than 6% of the country’s plastic gets recycled. She was shocked.
Determined to cut back on her plastic consumption, Angela got a starter kit from a company selling refillable household cleaners (家用清洁器). In it were tablets, containing concentrated hand soap as well as glass and bathroom cleaners, and four empty containers. She filled each one with tap water, then dropped in a tablet and watched it dissolve. If she was happy with the cleaners, she would order more tablets but reuse the containers. No new plastic required.
Given plastic’s harmful effects on the environment, nearly three quarters of Americans say they are trying to reduce their reliance on single-use plastic, according to Pew Research Center. Since plastic is everywhere and avoiding it altogether is extraordinarily difficult, some, like Angela, have revived a once-customary practice: refilling containers. Household cleaners seem particularly prepared for a refill revolution, for many can be easily concentrated and reconstituted (with water. If just 10% to 20% of plastic packaging are reused, a report from the World Economic Forum estimates, the amount of plastic waste entering the ocean will be cut in half.
Not everyone is as enthusiastic, though. Jan Dell, a chemical engineer, noted that many cleaning products are packaged in PET or HDPE, two types of plastic with relatively high recycling rates. So she is less concerned about them but far more concerned about the packaging of other products. “What companies should be focusing on is everything else that isn’t recyclable, that is single use and that often becomes plastic pollution,” she said, pointing to plastic bags and cups. “This is just a classic example of big corporations doing something to attract people’s attention over here on something that’s not the main issue to distract from all the single-use plastic they’re pushing out.”
8. Why is Angela mentioned
A. To promote a tablet. B. To lead in the topic.
C. To clarify a concept. D. To recommend a kit.
9. What does the underlined word “dissolve” in paragraph 2 mean
A. Float over water. B. Turn over in water.
C. Change color in water. D. Mix with water.
10. What’s Jan Dell’s attitude towards the deeds of big corporations
A. Critical. B. Favourable.
C. Conservative. D. Unconcerned.
11. Where is the text probably taken from
A. A chemistry paper. B. An academic report.
C. A lifestyle magazine. D. A cleaner advertisement.
【答案】8. B 9. D 10. A 11. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了人们使用家用清洁器，重复使用塑料容器，减少塑料的使用，降低塑料污染。
【8题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段“Then, her husband sent her some articles revealing that less than 6% of the country’s plastic gets recycled. She was shocked.(然后，她的丈夫给她发了一些文章，透露这个国家只有不到6%的塑料被回收。她很震惊)”以及第二段“Determined to cut back on her plastic consumption, Angela got a starter kit from a company selling refillable household cleaners.(为了减少塑料消费，安吉拉从一家销售可重复使用家用清洁器的公司买了一套入门套件)”、“If she was happy with the cleaners, she would order more tablets but reuse the containers. No new plastic required.(如果她对清洁剂满意，她会订购更多的片剂，但重复使用容器。不需要新的塑料)”可知，安吉拉购买家用清洁器，重复使用塑料容器，减少塑料的使用，作者提到安吉拉是为了引入文章的主题。故选B。
【9题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第二段“In it were tablets, containing concentrated hand soap as well as glass and bathroom cleaners, and four empty containers. She filled each one with tap water, then dropped in a tablet and watched it dissolve.(里面有片剂，包含浓缩洗手液、玻璃和浴室清洁剂，还有四个空容器。她给每一个都装满了自来水，然后放入一片，看着它dissolve)”以及常识可知，安吉拉在容器中放入水和片剂，片剂会溶于水，推测划线单词表示“溶解”，与Mix with water同义。故选D。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段““What companies should be focusing on is everything else that isn’t recyclable, that is single use and that often becomes plastic pollution,” she said, pointing to plastic bags and cups. “This is just a classic example of big corporations doing something to attract people’s attention over here on something that’s not the main issue to distract from all the single-use plastic they’re pushing out.”(她指着塑料袋和塑料杯说：“公司应该关注的是其他不可回收的、一次性的、经常成为塑料污染的东西。”。“这只是一个典型的例子，大公司在一些不是主要问题的事情上做一些事情来吸引人们的注意力，以分散人们对他们推出的所有一次性塑料的注意力。”)”可知，Jan Dell认为大公司推出一次性塑料产品时，采取的方法是分散人们的注意力，而不是解决问题，所以Jan Dell对大公司的行为持批评的态度。故选A。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段“Every week, Angela looked at her recycling bin, filled with shampoo bottles and plastic containers, with mixed feelings. Sure, it was a lot of plastic, but it was going to be recycled. Or so she thought. Then, her husband sent her some articles revealing that less than 6% of the country’s plastic gets recycled. She was shocked.(每周，安吉拉都会看着她的回收箱，里面装满洗发水瓶和塑料容器，心情复杂。当然，这是很多塑料，但它将被回收。或者她是这么想的。然后，她的丈夫给她发了一些文章，透露这个国家只有不到6%的塑料被回收。她很震惊)”以及文章内容可知，文章主要以安吉拉的行为引入，介绍了人们使用家用清洁器，重复使用塑料容器，减少塑料的使用，降低塑料污染，推测文章可能会出现在生活杂志上。故选C。
D
Who has no regrets about things done in the past Wouldn’t it be nice if, somehow, we could go back to change a couple of bad decisions This sounds like science fiction.
The laws of physics prohibit traveling back in time for many reasons. If we did travel back in time and changed the course of events, we would be altering the course of history. An example often cited is the grandfather’s paradox (悖论): If your grandfather died when he was still a high school student, he wouldn’t have met your grandmother and your father and you wouldn’t exist.
Putting humans or consciousness traveling back in time aside for the moment, is there anything in science even similar Surprisingly, yes. At the level of quantum particles (量子粒子), there is something called Wheeler’s delayed-choice experiments that show that actions in the present can influence the past. The experiments use something called the wave-particle duality (波粒二象性) of light and of matter. The fact that the physical nature of quantum objects is undetermined until it is measured. In other words, this means that a particle of light or of matter can behave either as a wave (spreading out in space) or as a particle (staying together) depending on the measuring devices. Long and ongoing discussions about the nature of quantum physics are still trying to work out what this actually means. Do our minds determine the nature of physical reality
Should we offer food for thought for the future or the past Unfortunately, these experiments say very little about how we could interfere with the past in events relevant to the human scale. Better to think carefully about decisions than to try to fix them backwards.
12. What’s the purpose of mentioning the paradox
A. To show it is interesting.
B. To explain Wheeler’s tests.
C. To demonstrate time is different from what we have known.
D. To show it’s impossible to travel back in time.
13. What can we infer from paragraph 3
A. Consciousness traveling back in time was tried in the experiments.
B. Different measuring devices have the same result.
C. More research is needed in the future.
D. These experiments can determine the nature of matter.
14. Which can best summarize the last paragraph
A We should focus on the present.
B. The future food is more nutritious.
C. We can change the past from the experiments.
D. It is never too late to make up for mistakes.
15. Which can be a suitable title for the text
A. Is changing the past wise
B. Can we change the past
C. Do our minds determine the future
D. Do the laws of physics ban traveling back
【答案】12. D 13. C 14. A 15. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了物理定律禁止时光倒流，作者认为，我们不要试图回到过去，应该活在当下，仔细思考决策。
【12题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段“The laws of physics prohibit traveling back in time for many reasons. If we did travel back in time and changed the course of events, we would be altering the course of history. An example often cited is the grandfather’s paradox: If your grandfather died when he was still a high school student, he wouldn’t have met your grandmother and your father and you wouldn’t exist.(由于许多原因，物理定律禁止时光倒流。如果我们真的回到过去，改变事件的进程，我们将改变历史的进程。一个经常被引用的例子是祖父的悖论：如果你的祖父在还是高中生的时候去世了，他就不会遇到你的祖母和父亲，你就不存在了)”可知，作者提到悖论的目的是为了证明时光倒流是不可能的。故选D。
【13题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“Long and ongoing discussions about the nature of quantum physics are still trying to work out what this actually means. Do our minds determine the nature of physical reality (关于量子物理学本质的长期和持续的讨论仍在试图弄清楚这到底意味着什么。我们的思想决定了物质现实的本质吗？)”可推知，关于量子物理学本质的讨论仍在继续，即未来还需要更多的研究。故选C。
【14题详解】
主旨大意题。根据最后一段“Unfortunately, these experiments say very little about how we could interfere with the past in events relevant to the human scale. Better to think carefully about decisions than to try to fix them backwards.(不幸的是，这些实验几乎没有说明我们如何在与人类规模相关的事件中干扰过去。与其试图倒退，不如仔细思考决策)”可知，最后一段主要介绍了人们应该活在当下，仔细思考决策，即我们应该着眼于现在。故选A。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段“Who has no regrets about things done in the past Wouldn’t it be nice if, somehow, we could go back to change a couple of bad decisions This sounds like science fiction.(谁对过去所做的事情从来不后悔？如果我们能以某种方式回去改变几个糟糕的决定，那不是很好吗？这听起来像科幻小说)”以及最后一段“Better to think carefully about decisions than to try to fix them backwards.(与其试图倒退，不如仔细思考决策)”可知，作者提出问题，人们是否能改变过去？就此展开阐述，介绍作者的观点，人们不要试图回到过去，应该活在当下，仔细思考决策，所以“我们能改变过去吗？”适合作为文章标题。故选B。
第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分，满分12.5分)
根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Research suggests that parental favouritism is surprisingly common, and can actually be very harmful. ____16____. Widespread as it is, it can damage children’s well-being across the lifespan, from their childhood to middle age and beyond. It is considered such an important factor in a range of emotional problems that psychologists have a name for it—“parental differential treatment”.
However, siblings (兄弟姐妹) in the same family may disagree over whether their family is even affected by it. ____17____. Laurie Kramer, a professor of applied psychology says, “It is an experience that a parent prefers another child to them.” She adds, “____18____. It possibly means less control, so that they may enjoy fewer restrictions and be subject to less discipline or even punishment.”
____19____. Such perceived parental favouritism has been associated with low self-esteem in children, as well as childhood anxiety, depression, and behavioural problems. There may also be a knock-on effect on emotional well-being that causes more indirect problems.
In a small Canadian study of eight homeless teenagers, seven said they felt that their parents had favoured a sibling over them while they had always been the “problem children”. ____20____. While the study may be too small to draw wider conclusions, it highlights just how far a child’s experience of favouritism can potentially go.
A. Being the favourite can also come with pain
B. That’s because feeling less-favoured can be very subjective
C. This could mean devoting more time, attention or affection
D. They believed this had contributed to the breakdown of family ties
E. This may not be the same observation that the other siblings encounter
F. For those who feel they are treated as second-best, the consequences can be serious
G. It occurs in around 65% of families, and has been studied across different cultures
【答案】16. G 17. B 18. C 19. F 20. D
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了家长的偏爱会对孩子产生不良的影响。
【16题详解】
上文“Research suggests that parental favouritism is surprisingly common, and can actually be very harmful. (研究表明，父母的偏爱非常普遍，而且实际上可能非常有害。)”说明父母的偏爱既普遍又有害，选项G“它发生在大约65%的家庭中，并且已经在不同的文化中进行了研究”承接上文，具体说明它的普遍性。选项中It指上文中parental favouritism，语义一致，故选G项。
【17题详解】
上文“However, siblings (兄弟姐妹) in the same family may disagree over whether their family is even affected by it. (然而，同一家庭的兄弟姐妹可能会对他们的家庭是否受到偏爱的影响意见不一。)”说明同一家庭的兄弟姐妹会对家庭偏爱的影响意见不一，这是孩子的主观意识。选项B“那是因为感觉不那么受欢迎是非常主观的”承接上文，和上文之间是因果关系。故选B项。
【18题详解】
上文“It is an experience that a parent prefers another child to them. (这是一种父母更喜欢另一个孩子而不是自己的经历。)”谈到偏爱的经历，选项C“这可能意味着投入更多的时间、精力或感情”承接上文，是对这种经历的具体说明，所谓偏爱意味着父母对某个孩子投入更多。故选C项。
【19题详解】
下文“Such perceived parental favouritism has been associated with low self-esteem in children, as well as childhood anxiety, depression, and behavioural problems. (这种感知到的父母偏袒与儿童的低自尊、儿童焦虑、抑郁和行为问题有关。)”说明了孩子不受待见的不良后果，选项F“对于那些觉得自己被置于次要位置的人来说，后果可能很严重”引领下文，说明父母偏爱对于被认为自己不是父母的最爱的孩子有严重后果。故选F项。
【20题详解】
上文“In a small Canadian study of eight homeless teenagers, seven said they felt that their parents had favoured a sibling over them while they had always been the ‘problem children’. (在加拿大对8名无家可归的青少年进行的一项小型研究中，有7人表示，他们觉得自己的父母更偏爱兄弟姐妹，而他们一直是‘问题儿童’。)”说明一些无家可归的青少年之所以离开家庭是因为他们认为父母偏爱其他兄弟姐妹，选项D“他们认为这导致了家庭关系的破裂”承接上文，说明他们认为父母偏爱导致了家庭破裂。故选D项。

【答案】Dear Bill,
I am writing today to share with you my concerns about my major choice for university. I am at a loss nowadays because my parents have different opinions about choosing my major in college.
My father thinks I should major in finance for the reason that he feels it will prepare me for a career in the world of business. However, my mother advises me to choose law as my major because she thinks that our society is in great need of skilled workers and experts in law so that I can find a good job after graduation. Despite their opinions, I want to learn agriculture as I am a fan of nature. I doubt whether I will achieve good academic results if I choose something I am not interested in.
I need your help. I am looking forward to your advice.

第二节(满分25分)
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。
It was a cold December, and things were tough. Mum had a hard time raising us kids on her own in our small community. We relied on social assistance to keep us clothed, and although our clothes were secondhand, we thought they were beautiful.
Looking back, I realized what Mum went through sending us kids to school. Every morning she would tuck (塞) a new piece of cardboard in our shoes because our soles (鞋底) were worn out. When we got home, Mum would have French toast ready for us. Our rent was $100 a month, but Mum couldn’t pay it, and we knew we would move out right after Christmas on the first of January.
The holidays were fast approaching, and we were entitled to (有资格获得) $100 for Christmas from social services. It was four days before Christmas. Mum said that instead of buying food, she was going to use the money to pay our back rent. That way we’d have a roof over our heads for a little while longer. Then she told us that there would be no Christmas gifts.
What Mom didn’t know was that I had been selling Christmas trees, sweeping snow and doing part-time jobs to earn enough money to buy a new pair of boots—boots that weren’t patched (缝补); boots with no cardboard in it. I knew exactly which boots I wanted. They were ten-inch, Top-Genuine, Pierre Paris boots, and they cost $23.
The big day for getting my boots came on Christmas Eve afternoon. I was very excited as I hurried up the shopping center for it. On the way, I noticed a grocery store (杂货店).
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。
Para.1 In the grocery store were different sorts of necessities and Christmas decorations displayed, and I slowed my pace.

Para.2 Once home, I piled the groceries on the porch (门廊) and knocked on the door.
_________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】Possible version:
In the grocery store were different sorts of necessities and Christmas decorations displayed, and I slowed my pace. It was then that I realized in our dim house, we had no Christmas decorations and no money for Christmas. A strange sense of guilt suddenly engulfed me. With Pierre Paris boots still in my mind, I tried to convince myself there was at least French toast tonight. However, my family’s disappointed faces on that cold Christmas kept lingering in my mind clearly. After what seemed like a century, I ultimately made the resolution and stepped into the grocery store, eyes brimming with determination. I bought ham, oranges and even some dazzling Christmas decorations. I spent every dime of my hard-earned money and went back to my house.
Once home, I piled the groceries on the porch and knocked on the door. Out came my thin mom. The instant she unlocked the door, the groceries fell inside. Staring hard at these items, she was dumbfounded. Tears threatening to spill over my eyes, I hollered, “Merry Christmas, Mother! !” Words seemed to fail to convey her emotions so that she embraced me tightly. It was when a half-choking “Thanks” escaped from her mouth that a sense of achievement surged through me. I bet I would never have had such satisfaction if I had bought the Pierre Paris boots then. That night, I, an eleven-year-old boy, received the most precious Christmas gift—my responsibility and satisfaction for my family.

I was born with a rare disease that prevented the normal growth of my right arm. I was heart-broken at school. Those cruel experiences won’t affect me now, but back then they struck me very hard.
My parents realised playing with Lego was a great way to improve my flexibility, so they bought me a set when I was five. I built planes and cars, and even a prosthetic (义肢的) arm, though I had already decided I didn’t need a prosthetic arm — it was very expensive, and I was doing just fine.
I made one because it’s fun. I have since made several new versions. And my latest model is the most advanced and comfortable. It has a control unit that can send and receive orders from sensors on the arm to the motors, with cables that contract like muscles.
A lot of people don’t have the ability to buy a prosthetic. I hate it when people have to pay up to ?100,000 for a prosthetic. They shouldn’t pay that much — it’s not a luxury. My goal is to try to make some that more people can afford.
When I was 19, the parents of an eight-year-old boy got in touch to ask if I could build him a prosthetic. His arms and legs are underdeveloped as part of his condition, so I made two prosthetic arms using Lego units costing only ?15. His smile when he used them for the first time was very encouraging.
To me, my creations don’t necessarily tell the story of how I overcame my condition with Lego; they’re about how I overcame the tough period almost every day at school.
4. Which word best describes the author’s school life
A. Rewarding. B. Demanding. C. Unpleasant. D. Satisfactory.
5. What did the author decide to do with prosthetics
A. To make them reliable. B. To make them advanced.
C. To make them flexible. D. To make them affordable.
6 What has the author benefited from creating prosthetics
A. He has gained great popularity. B. He has become more optimistic.
C. He has enjoyed his school life. D. He has recovered his flexibility.
7. What kind of person is the author
A. He is sympathetic and creative. B. He is outgoing and adaptable.
C. He is patient but aggressive. D. He is ambitious but proud.
C
Every week, Angela looked at her recycling bin, filled with shampoo bottles and plastic containers, with mixed feelings. Sure, it was a lot of plastic, but it was going to be recycled. Or so she thought. Then, her husband sent her some articles revealing that less than 6% of the country’s plastic gets recycled. She was shocked.
Determined to cut back on her plastic consumption, Angela got a starter kit from a company selling refillable household cleaners (家用清洁器). In it were tablets, containing concentrated hand soap as well as glass and bathroom cleaners, and four empty containers. She filled each one with tap water, then dropped in a tablet and watched it dissolve. If she was happy with the cleaners, she would order more tablets but reuse the containers. No new plastic required.
Given plastic’s harmful effects on the environment, nearly three quarters of Americans say they are trying to reduce their reliance on single-use plastic, according to Pew Research Center. Since plastic is everywhere and avoiding it altogether is extraordinarily difficult, some, like Angela, have revived a once-customary practice: refilling containers. Household cleaners seem particularly prepared for a refill revolution, for many can be easily concentrated and reconstituted (with water. If just 10% to 20% of plastic packaging are reused, a report from the World Economic Forum estimates, the amount of plastic waste entering the ocean will be cut in half.
Not everyone is as enthusiastic, though. Jan Dell, a chemical engineer, noted that many cleaning products are packaged in PET or HDPE, two types of plastic with relatively high recycling rates. So she is less concerned about them but far more concerned about the packaging of other products. “What companies should be focusing on is everything else that isn’t recyclable, that is single use and that often becomes plastic pollution,” she said, pointing to plastic bags and cups. “This is just a classic example of big corporations doing something to attract people’s attention over here on something that’s not the main issue to distract from all the single-use plastic they’re pushing out.”
8. Why is Angela mentioned
A. To promote a tablet. B. To lead in the topic.
C. To clarify a concept. D. To recommend a kit.
9. What does the underlined word “dissolve” in paragraph 2 mean
A. Float over water. B. Turn over in water.
C. Change color in water. D. Mix with water.
10. What’s Jan Dell’s attitude towards the deeds of big corporations
A. Critical. B. Favourable.
C. Conservative. D. Unconcerned.
11. Where is the text probably taken from
A. A chemistry paper. B. An academic report.
C. A lifestyle magazine. D. A cleaner advertisement.
D
Who has no regrets about things done in the past Wouldn’t it be nice if, somehow, we could go back to change a couple of bad decisions This sounds like science fiction.
The laws of physics prohibit traveling back in time for many reasons. If we did travel back in time and changed the course of events, we would be altering the course of history. An example often cited is the grandfather’s paradox (悖论): If your grandfather died when he was still a high school student, he wouldn’t have met your grandmother and your father and you wouldn’t exist.
Putting humans or consciousness traveling back in time aside for the moment, is there anything in science even similar Surprisingly, yes. At the level of quantum particles (量子粒子), there is something called Wheeler’s delayed-choice experiments that show that actions in the present can influence the past. The experiments use something called the wave-particle duality (波粒二象性) of light and of matter. The fact that the physical nature of quantum objects is undetermined until it is measured. In other words, this means that a particle of light or of matter can behave either as a wave (spreading out in space) or as a particle (staying together) depending on the measuring devices. Long and ongoing discussions about the nature of quantum physics are still trying to work out what this actually means. Do our minds determine the nature of physical reality
Should we offer food for thought for the future or the past Unfortunately, these experiments say very little about how we could interfere with the past in events relevant to the human scale. Better to think carefully about decisions than to try to fix them backwards.
12. What’s the purpose of mentioning the paradox
A. To show it is interesting.
B. To explain Wheeler’s tests.
C To demonstrate time is different from what we have known.
D. To show it’s impossible to travel back in time.
13. What can we infer from paragraph 3
A. Consciousness traveling back in time was tried in the experiments.
B. Different measuring devices have the same result.
C. More research is needed in the future.
D. These experiments can determine the nature of matter.
14. Which can best summarize the last paragraph
A. We should focus on the present.
B. The future food is more nutritious.
C. We can change the past from the experiments.
D. It is never too late to make up for mistakes.
15. Which can be a suitable title for the text
A. Is changing the past wise
B. Can we change the past
C. Do our minds determine the future
D. Do the laws of physics ban traveling back

Research suggests that parental favouritism is surprisingly common, and can actually be very harmful. ____16____. Widespread as it is, it can damage children’s well-being across the lifespan, from their childhood to middle age and beyond. It is considered such an important factor in a range of emotional problems that psychologists have a name for it—“parental differential treatment”.
However, siblings (兄弟姐妹) in the same family may disagree over whether their family is even affected by it. ____17____. Laurie Kramer, a professor of applied psychology says, “It is an experience that a parent prefers another child to them.” She adds, “____18____. It possibly means less control, so that they may enjoy fewer restrictions and be subject to less discipline or even punishment.”
____19____. Such perceived parental favouritism has been associated with low self-esteem in children, as well as childhood anxiety, depression, and behavioural problems. There may also be a knock-on effect on emotional well-being that causes more indirect problems.
In a small Canadian study of eight homeless teenagers, seven said they felt that their parents had favoured a sibling over them while they had always been the “problem children”. ____20____. While the study may be too small to draw wider conclusions, it highlights just how far a child’s experience of favouritism can potentially go.
A. Being the favourite can also come with pain
B. That’s because feeling less-favoured can be very subjective
C. This could mean devoting more time, attention or affection
D. They believed this had contributed to the breakdown of family ties
E. This may not be the same observation that the other siblings encounter
F. For those who feel they are treated as second-best, the consequences can be serious
G. It occurs in around 65% of families, and has been studied across different cultures

What Mom didn’t know was that I had been selling Christmas trees, sweeping snow and doing part-time jobs to earn enough money to buy a new pair of boots—boots that weren’t patched (缝补); boots with no cardboard in it. I knew exactly which boots I wanted. They were ten-inch, Top-Genuine, Pierre Paris boots, and they cost $23.
The big day for getting my boots came on Christmas Eve afternoon. I was very excited as I hurried up the shopping center for it. On the way, I noticed a grocery store (杂货店).
