Here are some examples.Liverpool, EnglandA living wall is how Liverpool has made room for nature in its busy city center. Built in 2020, Liverpool’s living wall has been planted with 14,000 evergreens to help trap some of the pollution produced by the city’s nearby bus station. In 2021, another measure was taken. Two rooftop beehives were fixed for 40,000 bees to live in. There has been a great increase in the bee population and improvement of the community’s ecology (生态) in the following years.Singapore, Southeast AsiaSingapore is determined to be “a city in nature”. In February 2021 the city-state announced its “Green Plan 2030” — to make the city as continual and nature-inclusive as possible. Singapore already has over 400 parks and four nature reserves and by 2026 this will increase to 300 hectares (公顷). They promise by 2030 no family should be more than a ten-minute walk from a green space.Seoul, South Korea and Izmir, TurkeyIn South Korea, Seoul has planted a forest to lower city temperatures by 3 to 7℃. The Turkish city of Izmir is hoping to reduce pollution with the Mavisehir Peynircioglu Stream Ecological Corridor (河流生态走廊),Curitiba BrazilCuritiba, Brazil, has been working towards an eco-friendly model since the 1970s and city planners made the well-being of people their main concern. In the face of an increasing population, adding natural relaxation spaces and encouraging recycling practices has become a key part of city planning. The government’s forestation plan has seen the planting of many trees in public areas. Ten “mini-forests” have also been established, making use of smaller areas where larger plantations are impossible.1. What is the purpose of a living wall A. To reduce pollution. B. To fix beehives.C. To trap bee population. D. To plant evergreens.2. What does Singapore promise by 2030 A. Increased space for parks. B. Easier reach of green areas.C. Continual growth of the city.

To reduce local pollution. B. To provide relaxation spaces.C. To lower city temperatures. D. To improve living environment.5. Which is the best title of the text A. Creative Ideas: Working Together B. Promises Coming TrueC. Nature Reserves: More Coming D. Cities Turning Green【答案】1. A 2. B 3. B 4. D 5. D【解析】【导语】本文是一篇应用文。文章介绍了世界各地的城市引入自然,改善生活环境的创新想法和实践。【1题详解】细节理解题。根据Liverpool, England中“Built in 2020, Liverpool’s living wall has been planted with 14,000 evergreens to help trap some of the pollution produced by the city’s nearby bus station. (利物浦的绿色墙建于2020年,种植了1.4万棵常青树,以帮助捕获该市附近公交车站产生的一些污染)”可知,绿色墙的用处是减少污染。故选A项。【2题详解】细节理解题。根据Singapore, Southeast Asia中“They promise by 2030 no family should be more than a ten-minute walk from a green space. (他们承诺,到2030年,每个家庭距离绿色空间的步行距离将超过10分钟)”可知,新加坡承诺到2030年居民可以更容易到达绿色区域。故选B项。【3题详解】细节理解题。根据Curitiba, Brazil中“Ten “mini-forests” have also been established, making use of smaller areas where larger plantations are impossible. (还建立了10个“迷你森林”,利用不可能建造大型种植园的较小地区)”可知,巴西的库里提巴成功做到了绿化小空间。故选B项。【4题详解】细节理解题。根据Liverpool, England中“to help trap some of the pollution produced by the city’s nearby bus station (以帮助捕获该市附近公交车站产生的一些污染)”和“There has been a great increase in the bee population and improvement of the community’s ecology (生态) in the following years. (在接下来的几年里,蜜蜂的数量有了很大的增加,社区的生态也得到了改善)”、Singapore, Southeast Asia中“to make the city as continual and nature-inclusive as possible (使城市尽可能地具有连续性和自然包容性)”、Seoul, South Korea and Izmir, Turkey中“to lower city temperatures by 3 to 7℃ (使城市温度降低3到7℃)”和“to reduce pollution (减少污染)”以及Curitiba, Brazil中“city planners made the well-being of people their main concern (城市规划者把人民的福祉作为他们主要关心的问题)”可知,这些项目的共同的目标是优化生态情况,改善生活环境。故选D项。【5题详解】主旨大意题。通读全文,尤其是第一段中“From beehives (蜂箱) on rooftops to mini-forests, creative ideas are bringing nature into cities, all around the world. (从屋顶上的蜂箱到迷你森林,创新的想法将自然带入世界各地的城市)”可知,文章是在介绍世界各地的城市引入自然,改善生活环境的创新想法和实践。因此,D项“城市在变绿”契合文章中介绍的各种想法和实践,适合作为文章标题。故选D项。BOn holiday, many will find themselves in places where they do not speak the language. Once upon a time, they might have carried a phrasebook. But now, many simple, free apps are good news for those travelers. With these apps’ conversation mode, people talk into a phone and a spoken translation is heard moments later. Maybe the best-known app is Google Translate, though small mistakes can happen due to its word-for-word translation.Surprisingly, the best tool may not be a translation app at all. Though not marketed for that, ChatGPT, a generative AI system, can write messages in different languages, producing natural output like a native speaker.As AI translation becomes an even more popular labour-saving tool, society may divide into two groups. There will be those who want to fully experience other cultures. This group will still take on language study, often aided by technology. Others will look at learning a new language with a different attitude: “Good for you, if that’s your thing, but a bit painful for my taste.” After all, most people do not move abroad or often have contact with a foreign culture. On their holiday, they just want a beer and spaghetti (意大利面).As a result, some experts are concerned that AI is leading to a decreasing interest in language learning. Writer Douglas Hofstadter has argued that something meaningful will disappear when people communicate through machines. He describes giving a disconnected, difficult speech in Chinese, which required a lot of work but offered a sense of achievement at the end. Who would boast of (吹嘘) taking a helicopter to the top of Mount Everest (珠穆朗玛峰) While AI translation seems practical, we must recognize the social nature of language. When trying to ask directions in broken Japanese or make a joke in awkward German, you are making direct contact with someone. The best relationships do not require a third party.6. Which of the following best describes translation apps A. Free but hard to use. B. Popular but expensive.C. Quick but with mistakes. D. Easy to use but slow.7. What does the underlined word “that” in paragraph 2 refer to A. Conversation. B. Language learning. C. Message writing. D. Translation.8. Why does the writer mention “beer and spaghetti” in paragraph 3 A. To present an opinion. B. To support a fact. C. To make an excuse. D. To give a reason.9. What can be inferred from Douglas Hofstadter’s opinion A. Reaching Mount Everest is quite easy.B. Learning a foreign language is less attractive.C. Talking without the help of technology is worthwhile.D. Making a speech in another language is too challenging.10. What is the social nature of language A. Direct connection with people. B. Broken but funny translation.C. Awkward relations between people. D. Communication with the third party.【答案】6. C 7. D 8. B 9. C 10. A【解析】【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了翻译应用程序的特点以及如今人工智能成为一种更受欢迎的节省劳动力的工具,社会可能会分成两派。因此,一些专家担心人工智能会导致人们对语言学习的兴趣下降。对此,作者认为虽然人工智能翻译看起来很实用,但我们必须认识到语言的社会性质。【6题详解】推理判断题。根据第一段“With these apps’ conversation mode, people talk into a phone and a spoken translation is heard moments later. Maybe the best-known app is Google Translate, though small mistakes can happen due to its word-for-word translation.(有了这些应用程序的对话模式,人们对着电话说话,一会儿就能听到语音翻译。也许最著名的应用程序是谷歌翻译,尽管它的逐字翻译可能会出现一些小错误)”可推知,翻译应用快速但有时会有错误。故选C。【7题详解】词句猜测题。根据划线词上文“Surprisingly, the best tool may not be a translation app at all.(令人惊讶的是,最好的工具可能根本不是翻译应用程序)”以及后文“ChatGPT, a generative AI system, can write messages in different languages, producing natural output like a native speaker (ChatGPT是一个生成型人工智能系统,可以用不同的语言编写信息,像母语人士一样产生自然输出)”可知,ChatGPT是一种生成式人工智能系统,尽管没有被宣传有翻译功能,它还是可以用不同的语言编写信息,像母语人士一样自然地说话,故that指的是“翻译”。故选D。【8题详解】推理判断题。根据第三段“After all, most people do not move abroad or often have contact with a foreign culture. On their holiday, they just want a beer and spaghetti (意大利面).(毕竟,大多数人不会移居国外,也不会经常接触外国文化。度假时,他们只想要一杯啤酒和意大利面)”可推知,作者在第三段提到“啤酒和意大利面”是为了支持上文提到的大多数人不会移居国外,也不会经常接触外国文化的事实。故选B。【9题详解】推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“Writer Douglas Hofstadter has argued that something meaningful will disappear when people communicate through machines. He describes giving a disconnected, difficult speech in Chinese, which required a lot of work but offered a sense of achievement at the end. Who would boast of (吹嘘) taking a helicopter to the top of Mount Everest (珠穆朗玛峰) (作家Douglas Hofstadter认为,当人们通过机器进行交流时,一些有意义的东西将消失。他描述了用中文做一个断断续续、困难的演讲,这需要大量的工作,但最后会有一种成就感。谁会夸耀自己曾乘坐直升机登上珠穆朗玛峰?)”可知,根据Douglas Hofstadter的观点,没有技术帮助的谈话是值得的。故选C。【10题详解】细节理解题。根据最后一段“While AI translation seems practical, we must recognize the social nature of language. When trying to ask directions in broken Japanese or make a joke in awkward German, you are making direct contact with someone. The best relationships do not require a third party. (虽然人工智能翻译看起来很实用,但我们必须认识到语言的社会性质。当你试图用蹩脚的日语问路或用笨拙的德语讲笑话时,你是在与某人直接接触。最好的关系不需要第三者)”可知,语言的社会本质是与人直接联系。故选A。CSkill of copying and moving images onto paper is an art form shining in history, Zhao Xu reports. Rubbing, the tracing (描摹) of characters onto a piece of paper, reached its golden age during the Song Dynasty (960-1279).To do this, a thin piece of paper was placed over the surface of the stone tablet (石板) carved with characters. Then water, or later, ink, was applied smoothly to the back of the paper with just the right amount of pressure, to soften the paper and allow for a total moving of the details onto it. The paper was left to dry and then be lifted off the stone surface, carrying with it a copy of the original (原作).Repeated hundreds of thousands of times during the Song era, this hands-on skill enabled educated members of Song society to have a chance to learn from master calligraphic works either from their own times or from earlier dynasties. Oftentimes, the original calligraphy, or even its stone version, became lost over time, thus making the rubbings the only surviving copy of the masterworks that had once existed. In that sense, the Song rubbings, and those behind them; have helped to preserve a cultural relic much valued then and now.Now, art lovers have the chance to visit it at an exhibition (展览) held at Beijing’s Palace Museum themed the Song rubbings. Of the 40 pieces on show, 20 are drawn from the collection of the Palace Museum, which holds a total of 150 Song rubbings. The other half are lent for the first time by the Art Museum of the Chinese University of Hong Kong (CUHK), whose collection of rubbings were donated by J. S. Lee.“What we have here is not just a showcase of the beauty of ink and paper the art of calligraphy, carving and rubbing, but also the telling of stories shining in cultural pride and common spirit,” said Wang Xudong, director of the Palace Museum.11. What do we know about rubbing A. There were five steps to make a rubbing. B. It moved characters from paper to a stone.C. It was well developed in the Song Dynasty. D. Pressure was applied to the paper to smooth it.12. What is paragraph 3 mainly about A. The development of rubbing. B. The importance of rubbing.C. The process of rubbing. D. The loss of rubbing.13. What does paragraph 4 suggest A. Altogether there are 150 rubbings on show.B. Twenty of the rubbings were donated by CUHK.C. Sources of the exhibits are from two organizations.D. 190 Song rubbings are housed in the Palace Museum now.14. How does Wang Xudong feel about the exhibition A. Proud. B. Shocked. C. Thankful. D. Worried.15. Where is the text most probably taken from A. A research paper. B. A brochure.C. A guidebook to a museum. D. A section of a newspaper.【答案】11. C 12. B 13. C 14. A 15. D【解析】【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了拓印技术,说明了这种技术的历史以及重要性等知识。【11题详解】细节理解题。根据第一段“Rubbing, the tracing (描摹) of characters onto a piece of paper, reached its golden age during the Song Dynasty (960-1279). (拓印,即在纸上描画文字,在宋朝(960-1279)达到了鼎盛时期。)”可知,拓印在宋代得到了很好的发展。故选C。【12题详解】主旨大意题。根据第三段“Repeated hundreds of thousands of times during the Song era, this hands-on skill enabled educated members of Song society to have a chance to learn from master calligraphic works either from their own times or from earlier dynasties. Oftentimes, the original calligraphy, or even its stone version, became lost over time, thus making the rubbings the only surviving copy of the masterworks that had once existed. In that sense, the Song rubbings, and those behind them; have helped to preserve a cultural relic much valued then and now. (在宋朝,这种实践技能重复了数十万次,使宋朝社会受过教育的成员有机会学习自己时代或早期朝代的书法大师作品。通常情况下,原始的书法,甚至它的石头版本,随着时间的推移而丢失,因此,这些拓片是曾经存在的大师作品的唯一幸存的副本。从这个意义上说,宋朝拓片及其背后的拓片;帮助保护了一件当时和现在都很有价值的文物。)”可知,第三段的主要内容是拓印的重要性。故选B。【13题详解】推理判断题。根据第四段“Of the 40 pieces on show,20 are drawn from the collection of the Palace Museum, which holds a total of 150 Song rubbings. The other half are lent for the first time by the Art Museum of the Chinese University of Hong Kong (CUHK), whose collection of rubbings were donated by J. S. Lee. (在展出的40件作品中,有20件来自故宫博物院的藏品,故宫博物院共收藏了150件宋朝拓片。另一半则由香港中文大学艺术馆首次出借,该馆的拓片收藏是由J. S. Lee捐赠的。)”可推知,第4段暗示了展品的来源来自两个组织。故选C。【14题详解】推理判断题。根据最后一段““What we have here is not just a showcase of the beauty of ink and paper, the art of calligraphy, carving and rubbing, but also the telling of stories shining in cultural pride and common spirit,” said Wang Xudong, director of the Palace Museum. (故宫博物院院长王旭东表示:“我们在这里不仅展示了水墨之美、书法、雕刻和拓印艺术,还讲述了文化自豪感和共同精神的故事。”)”可推知,王旭东对这次展览感到骄傲。故选A。【15题详解】推理判断题。根据第一段“Skill of copying and moving images onto paper is an art form shining in history, Zhao Xu reports. Rubbing, the tracing (描摹) of characters onto a piece of paper, reached its golden age during the Song Dynasty (960-1279). (赵旭报道,将图像复制并移动到纸上的技术是一种历史上闪耀的艺术形式。拓印,即在纸上描画文字,在宋朝(960-1279)达到了鼎盛时期。)”结合文章主要介绍了拓印技术,说明了这种技术的历史以及重要性等知识。可推知,文章可能选自报纸的部分内容。故选D。第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10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。We all want to keep fit and stay healthy, but a few things may prevent it: laziness, a busy schedule, and maybe even a limited spend. ___16___.

Here are some examples.Liverpool, EnglandA living wall is how Liverpool has made room for nature in its busy city center. Built in 2020, Liverpool’s living wall has been planted with 14,000 evergreens to help trap some of the pollution produced by the city’s nearby bus station. In 2021, another measure was taken. Two rooftop beehives were fixed for 40,000 bees to live in. There has been a great increase in the bee population and improvement of the community’s ecology (生态) in the following years.Singapore, Southeast AsiaSingapore is determined to be “a city in nature”. In February 2021 the city-state announced its “Green Plan 2030” — to make the city as continual and nature-inclusive as possible. Singapore already has over 400 parks and four nature reserves and by 2026 this will increase to 300 hectares (公顷). They promise by 2030 no family should be more than a ten-minute walk from a green space.Seoul, South Korea and Izmir, TurkeyIn South Korea, Seoul has planted a forest to lower city temperatures by 3 to 7℃. The Turkish city of Izmir is hoping to reduce pollution with the Mavisehir Peynircioglu Stream Ecological Corridor (河流生态走廊),Curitiba, BrazilCuritiba, Brazil, has been working towards an eco-friendly model since the 1970s and city planners made the well-being of people their main concern. In the face of an increasing population, adding natural relaxation spaces and encouraging recycling practices has become a key part of city planning. The government’s forestation plan has seen the planting of many trees in public areas. Ten “mini-forests” have also been established, making use of smaller areas where larger plantations are impossible.1. What is the purpose of a living wall A. To reduce pollution. B. To fix beehives.C. To trap bee population. D. To plant evergreens.2. What does Singapore promise by 2030 A. Increased space for parks. B. Easier reach of green areas.C. Continual growth of the city. D. Greater area of nature reserves.3. Which of the following succeeds in greening smaller spaces A. Singapore. B. Curitiba. C. Seoul. D. Izmir.4. What is the shared goal of these projects A. To reduce local pollution. B. To provide relaxation spaces.C. To lower city temperatures. D. To improve living environment.5. Which is the best title of the text A. Creative Ideas: Working Together B. Promises Coming TrueC. Nature Reserves: More Coming D. Cities Turning GreenBOn holiday, many will find themselves in places where they do not speak the language. Once upon a time, they might have carried a phrasebook. But now, many simple, free apps are good news for those travelers. With these apps’ conversation mode, people talk into a phone and a spoken translation is heard moments later. Maybe the best-known app is Google Translate, though small mistakes can happen due to its word-for-word translation.Surprisingly, the best tool may not be a translation app at all. Though not marketed for that, ChatGPT, a generative AI system, can write messages in different languages, producing natural output like a native speaker.As AI translation becomes an even more popular labour-saving tool society may divide into two groups. There will be those who want to fully experience other cultures. This group will still take on language study, often aided by technology. Others will look at learning a new language with a different attitude: “Good for you, if that’s your thing, but a bit painful for my taste.” After all, most people do not move abroad or often have contact with a foreign culture. On their holiday, they just want a beer and spaghetti (意大利面).As a result, some experts are concerned that AI is leading to a decreasing interest in language learning. Writer Douglas Hofstadter has argued that something meaningful will disappear when people communicate through machines. He describes giving a disconnected, difficult speech in Chinese, which required a lot of work but offered a sense of achievement at the end. Who would boast of (吹嘘) taking a helicopter to the top of Mount Everest (珠穆朗玛峰) While AI translation seems practical, we must recognize the social nature of language. When trying to ask directions in broken Japanese or make a joke in awkward German, you are making direct contact with someone. The best relationships do not require a third party.6. Which of the following best describes translation apps A. Free but hard to use. B. Popular but expensive.C. Quick but with mistakes. D. Easy to use but slow.7. What does the underlined word “that” in paragraph 2 refer to A. Conversation. B. Language learning. C. Message writing. D. Translation.8. Why does the writer mention “beer and spaghetti” in paragraph 3 A. To present an opinion. B. To support a fact. C. To make an excuse. D. To give a reason.9. What can be inferred from Douglas Hofstadter’s opinion A. Reaching Mount Everest is quite easy.B. Learning a foreign language is less attractive.C. Talking without the help of technology is worthwhile.D. Making a speech in another language is too challenging.10. What is the social nature of language A. Direct connection with people. B. Broken but funny translation.C. Awkward relations between people. D. Communication with the third party.CSkill of copying and moving images onto paper is an art form shining in history, Zhao Xu reports. Rubbing, the tracing (描摹) of characters onto a piece of paper, reached its golden age during the Song Dynasty (960-1279).To do this, a thin piece of paper was placed over the surface of the stone tablet (石板) carved with characters. Then water, or later, ink, was applied smoothly to the back of the paper with just the right amount of pressure, to soften the paper and allow for a total moving of the details onto it. The paper was left to dry and then be lifted off the stone surface, carrying with it a copy of the original (原作).Repeated hundreds of thousands of times during the Song era, this hands-on skill enabled educated members of Song society to have a chance to learn from master calligraphic works either from their own times or from earlier dynasties.
