According to the National Federation of the Blind, fewer than l0 percent of the l. 3 million people who are legally blind in the Us are braille readers. But one woman has made a difference in their lives and my son’s life, too.
35 years ago, my son, Jared , was born blind. Fortunately , I learned about her life-changing organization when Jared’s teacher of the visually-impaired( 视力受损) introduced us to seedlings Braille Books for Children. It was founded by Debra Bonde, and although she did not plan to start a nonprofit back in l984, she ended up helping blind children all over the world.
A shy woman, Debra just wanted to find a volunteer job she could do without having to talk to anyone. So , she signed up for a braille transcription(转录) class in the hope of translating books into braille in the basement of her Detroit home.
Debra began transcribing popular children’s books, like “Oh, The Thinks you Can Think” , printing them on a braille printer and selling them for just the cost of the paper.
Word spread among parents and teachers of blind children, and demand grew for more of her books. Friends helped her to form a nonprofit so she could start getting grants(拨款) and donations to help with production costs. She named it seedlings Braille Books for Children because she believes that if you give a child a book, the love for reading will grow. That first year, she printed 22l books. Seedlings has produced and distributed more than 600 ,000 books across the world so far. They give half of their books away for free. The other half are sold for an average price of only 10 dollars each, about half the cost of producing them.
As a mother, I appreciated that seedlings provided “ typical ” experiences for Jared in school. Seedlings supplied braille books to the libraries of the school Jared attended so he could check out books just like his sighted classmates. Since books from seedlings were affordable, it was possible to have a home library. Without the childhood skills seedlings provided to Jared, he would not have a job as a software engineer now.
24．How did the author get to know the organization seedlings Braille Books for Children
A．From Jared’ s teacher.
B．From the library.
C．From her friend.
D．From other parents.

A．To make a living.
B．To read more braille books.
C．To do volunteer work alone.
D．To start anon-profit organization.

A．Talented and social. B．shy and generous.
C．Helpful and brave. D．Mild and neat.
27．What can we infer from the last paragraph
A． The author lived an easy and rich life.
B．Jared got along well with all his classmates.
C．The author attached importance to her son’s reading.
D．Jared will spread the skills he learned during his childhood.

Scientists have recently discovered the world’s largest known field of sea grass. They did it using videos shot by some extraordinary helpers. The work should help protect the sea grass, and also shows off a powerful way to explore the ocean.
As a shelter for many sea creatures, sea grasses are flowering plants that normally grow in shallow waters near coasts. They grow in thick fields, known as seagrass meadows (海草床), which help clean the ocean water. More importantly, they are called “ocean lung”. They help in the fight against the climate crisis. That’s because they store huge amounts of carbon — the major source of global warming.
Considering the urgent need to protect seagrass meadows and the challenges to spot them, scientists decided to have tiger sharks help the research.
Tiger sharks are inborn fast swimmers, and spend a lot of time in seagrass meadows. Between 2016 and 2020, the researchers attached cameras and other trackers to the fins of seven tiger sharks, and then let them go again. The cameras were designed to fall off after hours and float to the surface. Tracking signals helped find the floating cameras and collect the videos the sharks had taken while traveling for miles. Moreover, other tools were used, including satellite images, as well as images taken by divers and boats.
Putting all this information together, the scientists learned that the waters around the Bahamas are home to the largest seagrass meadow ever discovered. Different from previous studies, the program discovers how useful large underwater animals can be in helping to learn more about life under the sea. Oliver Shipley, a scientist from the team, says animals like tiger sharks are going to take us to new places that we didn’t know existed.
28．Why do seagrass meadows urgently need protection
A．Damaging them will worsen climate crisis.
B．They determine the cleanliness of ocean water.
C．Sea creatures can’t survive without their shelter.
D．Their existence balances the underwater ecosystem.
29．How did tiger sharks help the scientific research
A．By tracking signals scientists sent.
B．By bringing back cameras with videos.
C．By carrying the recording equipment around.
D．By spending a lot of time in seagrass meadows.
30．What is the highlight about the research according to the text
A．Leading scientists.
B．Unusual research assistants.
C．Multiple experimental tools.
D．Advanced theories.
31．Which is the most suitable title for the text
A．The Cooperation between Man and Animals
B．The key to protecting the Sea—Tiger Sharks
C．Sea Grass: An Undervalued Plant
D．Ocean Lung Monitored in a New Way
D
In September 2005, the ground suddenly sank 10 feet in a certain area in northern Ethiopia, rapidly separated on both sides, with large holes that could engulf several camels and several goats. In the next three weeks, 160 earthquakes occurred in this area, forming a large crack 25 feet wide and approximately 0.34 miles long.
Tim Wright, a geophysicist at the University of Leeds in England, used satellite radar data to accurately piece together the formation process of this crack. When the African and Arab tectonic plates drift to both sides, the crust between the two plates weakens. Wright said: “The magma (岩浆) formed at the bottom of the crust will drop down regularly, just like the Lava lamp, forming a ‘balloon’, which will gradually expand. When the ‘balloon’ reaches the critical pressure, it will explode.”
According to Wright’s estimate, in the next 1 million years or so, the cracks will continue to expand, and the Horn of Africa will completely detach from the African continent, forming the eighth largest continent on Earth—East Africa. Wright said that this geological process always occurs, but ground separating usually only occur at the bottom of the sea, which is difficult for people to see. He said, “This is the first time we have directly observed this extremely important geological process using modern instruments.”
This discovery caused a shocking in the scientific community. In 2006, inspection teams from the UK, France, Italy, and the United States came to Afar one after another. After analysis and research, they predicted that a new continent would be formed in one million years, the Great Rift Valley in East Africa would be 10 times longer than it is today, and the Cape of Good Hope in East Africa would be separated from the African continent. In response, American geologist Cindy Ebinger said, “Many people believe that violent geological phenomena only occurred in distant ancient times, but we can now see them happening.”
What is the future of the Great Rift Valley Perhaps our humans can only wait and see.
32．What is the purpose of the data in the first paragraph
A．Describe economic losses
B．Illustrate the impact of sinking
C．Explain the research results
D．Number of participants named for the study
33．Why does the author take the Lava lamp as an example in the second paragraph
A．To better explain plate splitting
B．Further increase research funny
C．Explain satellite radar data
D．Causing a shock in the scientific community
34．Which of the following may be the best explanation for the underlined word “detach”
A．sink B．destroy C．contribute D．divide
35．Which of the following statement is true according to the passage
A．The ground in Ethiopia sank and swallowed 160 camels.
B．Ground cracking rarely occurs on the seabed.
C．Teams from four countries predict there will be eight continents in one million years.
D．Intense geological phenomena only occur in distant ancient times.

Young Chinese are fighting against society through a simple act of resistance: lying down. Examples of the “tangping”, or “lying flat”, way of life 61 (include) not getting married, not having children, and refusing to work extra hours or to hold a job at all. “I stay at home and sleep and watch television series.” said Zhang, who described herself as “lying flat” for the last two weeks 62 leaving her job in the film industry in Wuxi.
“Tangping” 63 (emerge) over the last few months. Some compare them to the 1950s Beat Generation in the United States. 64 (other) call their behavior a form of nonviolent resistance. “People realize there is no upward mobility,” said Yicheng Wang, a PhD student in political science at Boston University. The term developed after 65 April post on the Tieba forum, whose author, unemployed for the last two years, described a low-effort, low-cost lifestyle consisting of just a few months’ work out of the year.
“Lying flat is my movement,” he 66 (write), referring to the Greek philosopher Diogenes, who was known for living in a large container. He posted a picture of himself lying in bed in the middle of the day with the curtains 67 (draw).
But as “tangping” gained 68 (popular), it also brought a level of dishonor. Nanfang Daily called the philosophy “shameful”. Global Times made light of it describing “lying flat” as “not a serious philosophy”.
For Zhang in Wuxi, lying flat is not about giving up or withdrawing from society. “Many people want to lie down because 996 is too 69 (tire), ” she said, referring to the constant hours common in tech industry, 70 the staff are expected to work from 9 a. m. to 9 p. m. , six days a week.

My favourite inventor is Alexander Graham Bell. At a young age, Bell started to show much interest helping deaf people communicate, which led to their invention of the microphone. Beside, he also invented the telephone in 1876. However, at the beginning, what he actually tried to design was not a telephone but a multiple telegraph. During his search to improve the telegraph, Bell invents the first telephone. One of his most famous saying is: “Leave the beaten track occasional and dive into the woods. Every time you do so you will be certain to find something which is completely new in your life.” Indeed, what it was his acute curiosity that made his success.

According to the National Federation of the Blind, fewer than l0 percent of the l. 3 million people who are legally blind in the Us are braille readers. But one woman has made a difference in their lives and my son’s life, too.
35 years ago, my son, Jared , was born blind. Fortunately , I learned about her life-changing organization when Jared’s teacher of the visually-impaired( 视力受损) introduced us to seedlings Braille Books for Children. It was founded by Debra Bonde, and although she did not plan to start a nonprofit back in l984, she ended up helping blind children all over the world.
A shy woman, Debra just wanted to find a volunteer job she could do without having to talk to anyone. So , she signed up for a braille transcription(转录) class in the hope of translating books into braille in the basement of her Detroit home.
Debra began transcribing popular children’s books, like “Oh, The Thinks you Can Think” , printing them on a braille printer and selling them for just the cost of the paper.
Word spread among parents and teachers of blind children, and demand grew for more of her books. Friends helped her to form a nonprofit so she could start getting grants(拨款) and donations to help with production costs. She named it seedlings Braille Books for Children because she believes that if you give a child a book, the love for reading will grow. That first year, she printed 22l books. Seedlings has produced and distributed more than 600 ,000 books across the world so far. They give half of their books away for free. The other half are sold for an average price of only 10 dollars each, about half the cost of producing them.
As a mother, I appreciated that seedlings provided “ typical ” experiences for Jared in school. Seedlings supplied braille books to the libraries of the school Jared attended so he could check out books just like his sighted classmates. Since books from seedlings were affordable, it was possible to have a home library. Without the childhood skills seedlings provided to Jared, he would not have a job as a software engineer now.
24．How did the author get to know the organization seedlings Braille Books for Children
A．From Jared’ s teacher.
B．From the library.
C．From her friend.
D．From other parents.
25．Why did Debra sign up for a braille transcription class
A．To make a living. B．To read more braille books.
C．To do volunteer work alone. D．To start anon-profit organization.
26．Which of the following can best describe Debra Bonde
A．Talented and social. B．shy and generous.
C．Helpful and brave. D．Mild and neat.
27．What can we infer from the last paragraph
A． The author lived an easy and rich life.
B．Jared got along well with all his classmates.
C．The author attached importance to her son’s reading.
D．Jared will spread the skills he learned during his childhood.
【答案】24．A 25．C 26．B 27．C
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章介绍了一个名叫Debra Bonde的女士创建的非营利组织“Seedlings Braille Books for Children”，该组织制作和分发盲童用的盲文书籍。作者的儿子Jared是一个盲人，通过Seedlings的帮助，能够享受到与视力正常的同龄人一样的阅读体验。
24．细节理解题。根据第二段中“ Fortunately , I learned about her life-changing organization when Jared’s teacher of the visually-impaired( 视力受损) introduced us to seedlings Braille Books for Children.(幸运的是，当Jared的视障老师向我们介绍盲文儿童读物幼苗时，我了解了她改变生活的组织。)”可知作者是从杰瑞德的老师那里知道儿童盲文书的。故选A。
25．细节理解题。根据第三段中“ A shy woman, Debra just wanted to find a volunteer job she could do without having to talk to anyone. so , she signed up for a braille transcription(转录) class in the hope of translating books into braille in the basement of her Detroit home. (Debra是个害羞的女人，她只是想找一份不用和任何人说话就能做的志愿者工作。所以，她报名参加了一个盲文转录班，希望能在她底特律家的地下室里把书翻译成盲文。)”可知，她只想找一份不用和任何人说话就能做的志愿者工作即独自做志愿者工作。故选C。
26．推理判断题。根据第三段中“A shy woman, Debra just wanted to find a volunteer job she could do without having to talk to anyone.( Debra，一个害羞的女人，只想找一份不用和任何人说话就能做的志愿者工作。)”可知她是害羞的；根据第五段中“Seedlings has produced and distributed more than 600 ,000 books across the world so far. They give half of their books away for free. (到目前为止，Seedlings已经在世界各地制作和分发了60多万本书。他们免费赠送一半的书。)”可知，她是慷慨大方的，故二者结合她是一个害羞和大方的女人。故选B。
27．推理判断题。根据最后一段“As a mother, I appreciated that seedlings provided “ typical ” experiences for Jared in school. Seedlings supplied braille books to the libraries of the school Jared attended so he could check out books just like his sighted classmates. Since books from seedlings were affordable, it was possible to have a home library. (作为一名母亲，我很欣赏Seedlings为贾里德在学校提供的“典型”体验。Seedlings向贾里德就读的学校的图书馆提供盲文书籍，这样他就可以像视力正常的同学一样借阅书籍。由于Seedlings的书籍价格合理，因此有可能拥有一个家庭图书馆。)”可知，作者在Seedlings这个组织的帮助之下，贾里德就可以像视力正常的同学一样借阅书籍，且能够买得起很多书并且有可能建立家庭图书馆，故推断作者非常重视贾里德的阅读。故选C。
C
Scientists have recently discovered the world’s largest known field of sea grass. They did it using videos shot by some extraordinary helpers. The work should help protect the sea grass, and also shows off a powerful way to explore the ocean.
As a shelter for many sea creatures, sea grasses are flowering plants that normally grow in shallow waters near coasts. They grow in thick fields, known as seagrass meadows (海草床), which help clean the ocean water. More importantly, they are called “ocean lung”. They help in the fight against the climate crisis. That’s because they store huge amounts of carbon — the major source of global warming.
Considering the urgent need to protect seagrass meadows and the challenges to spot them, scientists decided to have tiger sharks help the research.
Tiger sharks are inborn fast swimmers, and spend a lot of time in seagrass meadows. Between 2016 and 2020, the researchers attached cameras and other trackers to the fins of seven tiger sharks, and then let them go again. The cameras were designed to fall off after hours and float to the surface. Tracking signals helped find the floating cameras and collect the videos the sharks had taken while traveling for miles. Moreover, other tools were used, including satellite images, as well as images taken by divers and boats.
Putting all this information together, the scientists learned that the waters around the Bahamas are home to the largest seagrass meadow ever discovered. Different from previous studies, the program discovers how useful large underwater animals can be in helping to learn more about life under the sea. Oliver Shipley, a scientist from the team, says animals like tiger sharks are going to take us to new places that we didn’t know existed.
28．Why do seagrass meadows urgently need protection
A．Damaging them will worsen climate crisis.
B．They determine the cleanliness of ocean water.
C．Sea creatures can’t survive without their shelter.
D．Their existence balances the underwater ecosystem.
29．How did tiger sharks help the scientific research
A．By tracking signals scientists sent.
B．By bringing back cameras with videos.
C．By carrying the recording equipment around.
D．By spending a lot of time in seagrass meadows.
30．What is the highlight about the research according to the text
A．Leading scientists. B．Unusual research assistants.
C．Multiple experimental tools. D．Advanced theories.
31．Which is the most suitable title for the text
A．The Cooperation between Man and Animals
B．The key to protecting the Sea—Tiger Sharks
C．Sea Grass: An Undervalued Plant
D．Ocean Lung Monitored in a New Way
【答案】28．A 29．C 30．B 31．D
【导语】这是一篇说明文。主要介绍了科学家们发现了世界上已知的最大的海草场。他们使用一些不寻常的助手拍摄的视频来做到这一点：虎鲨。这项工作应该有助于保护海草，同时也展示了一种探索海洋的强大方式。
28．细节理解题。根据第二段中“They help in the fight against the climate crisis. That’s because they store huge amounts of carbon—the major source of global warming. Damaging these seagrass meadows can release this pollutant again, making things worse. (它们有助于对抗气候危机。这是因为它们储存了大量的碳——全球变暖的主要来源。破坏这些海草草甸会再次释放这种污染物，使情况变得更糟。)”可知，海草草场迫切需要保护是因为破坏它们将加剧气候危机。故选A项。
29．细节理解题。根据第四段中“Between 2016 and 2020, the researchers attached cameras and other trackers to the fins of seven tiger sharks, and then let them go again. The cameras were designed to fall of after hours and float to the surface. Tracking signals helped find the floating cameras and collect the videos the sharks had taken while traveling for miles. Moreover, other tools were used, including satellite images, as well as images taken by divers and boats. (在2016年至2020年期间，研究人员在七只虎鲨的鳍上安装了摄像头和其他追踪器，然后又放了它们。这些相机被设计成在几小时后脱落并漂浮到水面上。跟踪信号帮助找到了漂浮的摄像头，并收集了鲨鱼在几英里外旅行时拍摄的视频。此外，还使用了其他工具，包括卫星图像以及潜水员和船只拍摄的图像。)”可知，虎鲨是通过随身携带记录设备帮助科学研究的。故选C项。
30．推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Different from previous studies, the program discovers how useful large underwater animals can be in helping to lean more about life under the sea. Oliver Shipley, a scientist from the team, says animals like tiger sharks are going to take us to new places that we didn’t know existed. (与之前的研究不同，该项目发现了大型水下动物在帮助了解更多海底生命方面的有用性，该团队的科学家奥利弗·希普利说，像虎鲨这样的动物将把我们带到我们不知道存在的新地方。)”可推知，根据文章，研究的亮点是不同寻常的研究辅助助手——即虎鲨，故选B项。
31．主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是根据文章第一段“Scientists have recently discovered the world’s largest known field of sea grass. They did it using videos shot by some extraordinary helpers. The work should help protect the sea grass, and also shows of a powerful way to explore the ocean. (科学家最近发现了世界上已知的最大的海草田。他们使用了一些非凡的帮手拍摄的视频。这项工作应该有助于保护海草，也展示了一种探索海洋的有力方式。)”和第二段中“As a shelter for many sea creatures, sea grasses are flowering plants that normally grow in shallow waters near coasts They grow in thick fields, known as seagrass meadows (海草床), which help clean the ocean water. More importantly, they are called “ocean lung”. (作为许多海洋生物的避难所，海草是一种开花植物，通常生长在靠近海岸的浅水区。它们生长在厚厚的田野里，被称为海草草地，这有助于清洁海水，更重要的是，它们被称为“海洋肺”。)”可知，科学家们通过虎鲨，这个不寻常的帮手，发现了世界上已知的最大的海草场，这项工作应该有助于环境保护。然后后面几段，讲述是怎样利用虎鲨进行监控海草的，整篇文章重点讲的是虎鲨发现海草场。故文章最好的标题是选项D. “Ocean Lung Monitored in a New Way (海洋肺监测的新方法)”即以新方式（即虎鲨）测量的海洋肺（即海草场）。故选D项。
D
In September 2005, the ground suddenly sank 10 feet in a certain area in northern Ethiopia, rapidly separated on both sides, with large holes that could engulf several camels and several goats. In the next three weeks, 160 earthquakes occurred in this area, forming a large crack 25 feet wide and approximately 0.34 miles long.
Tim Wright, a geophysicist at the University of Leeds in England, used satellite radar data to accurately piece together the formation process of this crack. When the African and Arab tectonic plates drift to both sides, the crust between the two plates weakens. Wright said: “The magma (岩浆) formed at the bottom of the crust will drop down regularly, just like the Lava lamp, forming a ‘balloon’, which will gradually expand. When the ‘balloon’ reaches the critical pressure, it will explode.”
According to Wright’s estimate, in the next 1 million years or so, the cracks will continue to expand, and the Horn of Africa will completely detach from the African continent, forming the eighth largest continent on Earth—East Africa. Wright said that this geological process always occurs, but ground separating usually only occur at the bottom of the sea, which is difficult for people to see. He said, “This is the first time we have directly observed this extremely important geological process using modern instruments.”
This discovery caused a shocking in the scientific community. In 2006, inspection teams from the UK, France, Italy, and the United States came to Afar one after another. After analysis and research, they predicted that a new continent would be formed in one million years, the Great Rift Valley in East Africa would be 10 times longer than it is today, and the Cape of Good Hope in East Africa would be separated from the African continent. In response, American geologist Cindy Ebinger said, “Many people believe that violent geological phenomena only occurred in distant ancient times, but we can now see them happening.”
What is the future of the Great Rift Valley Perhaps our humans can only wait and see.
32．What is the purpose of the data in the first paragraph
A．Describe economic losses B．Illustrate the impact of sinking
C．Explain the research results D．Number of participants named for the study
33．Why does the author take the Lava lamp as an example in the second paragraph
A．To better explain plate splitting B．Further increase research funny
C．Explain satellite radar data D．Causing a shock in the scientific community
34．Which of the following may be the best explanation for the underlined word “detach”
A．sink B．destroy C．contribute D．divide
35．Which of the following statement is true according to the passage
A．The ground in Ethiopia sank and swallowed 160 camels.
B．Ground cracking rarely occurs on the seabed.
C．Teams from four countries predict there will be eight continents in one million years.
D．Intense geological phenomena only occur in distant ancient times.
【答案】32．C 33．A 34．D 35．C
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了2005年9月，在埃塞俄比亚北部的某一地区，地面突然下沉10英尺，在接下来的三个星期里，这个地区发生了160次地震，形成了一个宽25英尺，长约0.34英里的大裂缝。裂缝可能将继续扩大。
32．推理判断题。由文章第一段“In September 2005, the ground suddenly sank 10 feet in a certain area in northern Ethiopia, rapidly separated on both sides, with large holes that could engulf several camels and several goats. In the next three weeks, 160 earthquakes occurred in this area, forming a large crack 25 feet wide and approximately 0.34 miles long. (2005年9月，在埃塞俄比亚北部的某一地区，地面突然下沉10英尺，两侧迅速分开，形成了大洞，可以吞没几头骆驼和几只山羊。在接下来的三个星期里，这个地区发生了160次地震，形成了一个宽25英尺，长约0.34英里的大裂缝。)”可知，第一段数据的目的是对下面的研究结果进行解释。故选C。
33．推理判断题。由文章第二段“Tim Wright, a geophysicist at the University of Leeds in England, used satellite radar data to accurately piece together the formation process of this crack. When the African and Arab tectonic plates drift to both sides, the crust between the two plates weakens. Wright said: “The magma (岩浆) formed at the bottom of the crust will drop down regularly, just like the Lava lamp, forming a ‘balloon’, which will gradually expand. When the ‘balloon’ reaches the critical pressure, it will explode.” (英国利兹大学的地球物理学家蒂姆·赖特利用卫星雷达数据准确地拼凑出了这条裂缝的形成过程。当非洲和阿拉伯构造板块向两侧漂移时，两个板块之间的地壳会变弱。赖特说：“地壳底部形成的岩浆会有规律地下降，就像熔岩灯一样，形成一个‘气球’，它会逐渐膨胀。当‘气球’达到临界压力时，它就会爆炸。”)”可知，在第二段中以熔岩灯为例是为了更好地解释板块分裂。故选A。
34．词句猜测题。由文章第三段中“According to Wright’s estimate, in the next 1 million years or so, the cracks will continue to expand, and the Horn of Africa... (根据赖特的估计，在未来100万年左右的时间里，裂缝将继续扩大，非洲之角……)”和“forming the eighth largest continent on Earth—East Africa. (形成地球上第八大大陆——东非)”可知，根据赖特的估计，在未来100万年左右的时间里，裂缝将继续扩大，非洲之角将完全从非洲大陆分离出来，形成地球上第八大大陆——东非。所以划线词的意思为“分离”。A. sink下沉；B. destroy摧毁；C. contribute贡献；D. divide分开，分散。故选D。
35．推理判断题。由文章倒数第二段中“This discovery caused a shocking in the scientific community. In 2006, inspection teams from the UK, France, Italy, and the United States came to Afar one after another. After analysis and research, they predicted that a new continent would be formed in one million years, the Great Rift Valley in East Africa would be 10 times longer than it is today, and the Cape of Good Hope in East Africa would be separated from the African continent. In response, American geologist Cindy Ebinger said, “Many people believe that violent geological phenomena only occurred in distant ancient times, but we can now see them happening.” (这一发现在科学界引起了震惊。2006年，英国、法国、意大利、美国的核查组陆续来到阿法尔。经过分析和研究，他们预测100万年后将形成一个新的大陆，东非大裂谷的长度将是现在的10倍，东非的好望角将与非洲大陆分离。对此，美国地质学家辛迪·埃宾格说：“许多人认为剧烈的地质现象只发生在遥远的古代，但我们现在可以看到它们的发生。”)”可知，来自四个国家的团队预测，一百万年后将有八大洲。故选C。

B．Why is wisdom crucial in this modern world
C．Change your routine and see where life takes you.
D．Surf the Internet and clear out your problems that confuse you.
E．Sometimes we ourselves need to be open to diverse perspectives.
F．The more time is spent with them, the more transfer of knowledge there will be.
G．Communicating with others and helping them out will also increase your wisdom.
【答案】36．B 37．E 38．D 39．F 40．G
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。作者就如何获得人生智慧给出了建议，帮助读者更好地面对充满挑战的世界以及生活中的困境。
36．根据空前的“In order to survive in the world with challenges, we need to be wise.(为了在这个充满挑战的世界上生存，我们需要变得聪明)”以及后文“Let me tell you this, wisdom provides us with perspective when we need it and it calms us down in terrible situations.(让我告诉你，当我们需要的时候，智慧会给我们提供视角，在糟糕的情况下，智慧会让我们冷静下来)”可知，智慧对每个人来说都是十分重要的，所以B项“Why is wisdom crucial in this modern world (为什么智慧在现代社会如此重要 )”起到承上启下的作用，引出下文介绍智慧的重要性的具体例子。故选B项。
37．分析设空，位于段首，是本段的中心句，根据后文“This will open up new pathways for us. Never base your perspective on the most popular opinion or which is the most comfortable for you. Train your mind to be a judgment-free space for ideas. If you are humble, then you will always get to experience something new.(这将为我们开辟新的道路。永远不要把你的观点建立在最流行的观点或对你来说最舒服的观点上。训练你的大脑成为一个不受评判的思想空间。如果你是谦虚的，那么你总能体验到新的东西)”可知，本段主张应学会接受不同的观点，所以E项“Sometimes we ourselves need to be open to diverse perspectives(有时候，我们自己也需要对不同的观点持开放态度)”符合文意。故选E项。
38．根据上文“You must be the kind of person who learns something new every day. Take new classes, read books and the list goes on and on.(你一定是那种每天都能学到新东西的人。参加新的课程，阅读书籍，这样的例子不胜枚举)”以及后文“All of these activities will help you to tackle problems from different angles, making everything easier.(所有这些活动将帮助你从不同的角度解决问题，使一切变得更容易)”可知，空处应承接上文，列举学习新事物的方式，下文中的“All of these activities”即指代前两句话，且D项中的“clear out your problems”与下文中的“tackle problems”相呼应。故选D项。
39．分析设空，位于段尾，是对前文的总结，根据前文“You obviously want to grow and do better in life, right The best way is to have wise people as your mentors (导师), like teachers, colleagues and even special friends. Prior to making them a mentor, find out what makes them wiser, then engage in useful dialogue with them.(你显然想要成长，想要在生活中做得更好，对吗 最好的方法是找一些有智慧的人做你的导师，比如老师、同事，甚至是特别的朋友。在成为他们的导师之前，找出是什么让他们更聪明，然后与他们进行有益的对话)”可知，本段的主题为“以智者为师”，所以F项“The more time is spent with them, the more transfer of knowledge there will be.(与他们相处的时间越多，知识的传递就越多)”与本段主题相符，且F项中的“them”与上文中的“them”相呼应。故选F项。
40．根据前文“If you have accumulated a lot of knowledge, then why not share it with others too (如果你积累了很多知识，那么为什么不与他人分享呢 )”可知，本段提出积累了很多知识后要与他人分享并积极帮助他人，所以G项“Communicating with others and helping them out will also increase your wisdom.(与他人交流并帮助他们也会增加你的智慧。)”与本段主题相符，且G项中的“Communicating with others”与上文中的“share it with others”相呼应。故选G项。

“Tangping” 63 (emerge) over the last few months. Some compare them to the 1950s Beat Generation in the United States. 64 (other) call their behavior a form of nonviolent resistance. “People realize there is no upward mobility,” said Yicheng Wang, a PhD student in political science at Boston University.

My favourite inventor is Alexander Graham Bell. At a young age, Bell started to show much interest helping deaf people communicate, which led to their invention of the microphone. Beside, he also invented the telephone in 1876. However, at the beginning, what he actually tried to design was not a telephone but a multiple telegraph. During his search to improve the telegraph, Bell invents the first telephone. One of his most famous saying is: “Leave the beaten track occasional and dive into the woods. Every time you do so you will be certain to find something which is completely new in your life.” Indeed, what it was his acute curiosity that made his success. Bell was a honourable inventor all his life. He made his first invention at 11 but his last invention at 75.

4.invents→invented
5.saying→sayings
6.occasional→occasionally
7.which→that
8.删除what
9.a→an

【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了科学家Alexander Graham Bell的重大发明。
【详解】1.考查介词。句意：在很小的时候，贝尔就开始对帮助聋哑人交流表现出很大的兴趣，这导致了他发明了麦克风。短语show much interest in表示“感兴趣”。故interest后添加in。
2.考查代词。句意：在很小的时候，贝尔就开始对帮助聋哑人交流表现出很大的兴趣，这导致了他发明了麦克风。此处指Bell发明了麦克风，应用代词his。故their改为his。
3.考查副词。句意：此外，他还在1876年发明了电话。表示“此外”修饰后文句子应用副词besides；beside表示“在旁边”不符合语境。故Beside改为Besides。
4.考查时态。句意：在他研究改进电报的过程中，贝尔发明了第一台电话。动作发生在过去应用一般过去时。故invents改为invented。
5.考查名词的数。句意：他最著名的一句话是：“偶尔离开人迹罕至的小路，潜入树林。” saying为可数名词，此处为one of+复数名词。故saying改为sayings。

7.考查定语从句。句意：每次你这样做的时候，你肯定会发现生活中有一些全新的东西。先行词为something，为不定代词，在从句作主语，只能用that引导。故which改为that。
8.考查强调句。句意：事实上，正是他强烈的好奇心成就了他的成功。分析句子结构可知此处为强调句：it was+被强调部分+that。故删除what。
9.考查冠词。句意：贝尔一生都是一位可敬的发明家。honourable是发音以元音音素开头的单词，应用不定冠词an。故a改为an。
10.考查连词。句意：他11岁时完成了第一项发明，75岁时完成了最后一项发明。结合前后文语境可知为并列关系，应用连词and。故but改为and。
