M: I got my first skateboard at eight, I wanted to join the skateboard club at my local park, but you had to be at least twelve. My cousin was good at doing jumps, but he was not interested in teaching kids like me. So I watched a lot of skateboarding videos and practised all the moves.
W: Where is the best place for skateboarding
M: Well, for freestyle boarding, which doesn’t need a skate park. Any smooth, flat ground like a basketball court or a square will do. The place I most often go to is the park that goes along the beach.
W: Then what do you like to do to stay fit
M: I used to cycle or jog twice a week. That wasn’t keeping me fit enough though. Now I’ve joined the gym to spend time swimming.
W: Do you have any plans for the future
M: I’ll miss a big competition as I’m recovering from an ankle injury. I’ve been asked to advertise a new skateboard, but that’ll have to wait until I get back from the USA. First, I’m going there to see skateboard camp for children.

【答案】17. B 18. A 19. C 20. A
【解析】
【原文】W: As a little girl I dreamed of getting into filming. I worked in a shop just after graduation. Then a friend got me a temporary job for a company doing films. One day I saw a post for a person to be a runner working for a TV programme. I thought that was a perfect opportunity. I was delighted when I got it. Now I’ve been a director for about twelve years. I’ve done a number of different programs like bargain hunt and home cooking. But at the moment I’m working on a nature programme called country file. The hardest part of the job is getting the music together. When you find a piece of music that goes with the film, then you create the right atmosphere and it totally brings the film alive.
There are so much variety in my job and I’m always learning about new things. Last year I did a writing course. It really made sense to me. Not long ago, I did a film about some rare birds and we had to use new technology to film at night. I prefer to learn from experience by trying something out. I try new things to discover my potential and try to adjust myself to the social environment and improve myself step by step.

阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C 和 D 四个选项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
A
It’s not easy to offer a short version of all that attracts travelers to Latin America, but there are a few must-see spots that we have narrowed down for you.
Machu Picchu
Perched in the high mountains above the town of Cusco, the ancient Incan city of Machu Picchuisa wonder of the world on par (齐名) with the pyramids of Egypt, and the Great Wall of China. The view from the top is beautiful whether it’s clear or shrouded in fog, although there are fewer crowds during the wet season between December and April.
La Candelaria
La Candelaria in Colombia is a jewel of the old world set on the edges of the modern metropolis of Bogota. La Candelaria has jealously guarded its unique charm against the winds of change. Home to museums, cathedrals, cafes and restaurants, La Candelaria is easy to love and hard to leave.
Lago de Atitlan
Created by an enormous volcanic eruption 84,000 years ago and still ringed by active volcanos, Lagode Atitlan in Guatemala is the deepest lake in Central America, and it’s almost too beautiful to believe: The crystal-blue waters below, volcanic backdrop beyond and stunning cloud formations above make for one truly unforgettable sight. Along the water’s edge, there are plenty of cozy lake towns where you can have fun.
Iguazu Falls
As the second-largest waterfall in the world, Iguazu Falls is incredible. The 269-foot drop at Iguazu Falls marks the border between Brazil and Argentina. Brazilians and Argentinians can’t help but make comparisons about who’s got the better end of the waterfall. Brazilians, of course, say their side is the most beautiful, while Argentineans hotly disagree. It’s up to you to decide, but you’ll need to get a visa to see things from Brazil’s point-of-view.

On a sunny morning, I walked casually through the park, savoring the gentle breeze, with the simple desire to locate a quiet spot for a good book. Little did I know that an unexpected encounter with a naughty creature would turn this peaceful outing into an unforgettable experience.
Settling down on a comfortable bench under an oak tree, I was fascinated by a novel, lost in a world of fictional characters. Suddenly, a strange sound interrupted me. Curiously, I glanced in the direction of the noise, only to discover a squirrel hurrying towards my bag. Immediately, I reached out to protect my bag from the thief. But the squirrel ran away, grasping a chocolate bar stolen from my bag. Fueled by determination to get my. snack back, I gave chase to the creature through the park.
The squirrel displayed impressive flexibility, effortlessly jumping onto trees and leaping from branch to branch. Children and bystanders couldn’t help but laugh at the spectacle of a grown adult chasing a squirrel. The chase continued , and as I ran after the squirrel, I became both exhausted and awkward. The peacefulness of the park transformed into a lively playground, with laughter echoing around us. The squirrel, seemingly aware of its comical effect, increased its speed and finally vanished into thin air.
As I made my way back to the bench, my heart still raced from the pursuit. I couldn’t help but feel a sense of companionship with the squirrel.

Kristy Holmes, a mother from Australia, found a clever solution to power her son’s dialysis machine (透析机) when a massive storm caused a power failure in southeast Queensland on Christmas Day. This incident highlights the life-saving potential of electric vehicles (EVs) during emergencies.
Facing a dire situation with her 11-year-old son Levi, who is waiting for a kidney transplant, Kristy Holmes turned to her electric car, the Atto 3, made by Chinese EV company BYD. The cars’ “vehicle to load” feature, which allows it to use extra energy from its battery to power house hold appliances, played an important role in keeping Levi dialysis machine running, preventing potentially life-threatening results.
In an interview with The Guardian, Kristy Holmes expressed her appreciation, stating, “We powered the dialysis machine using the car. We only needed it for one night. We could have used it for at least four nights before needing to charge the car.” Highlighting the significant role the car played, she remarked, “It’s the most incredible car I’ve ever owned. After it saved my son during a storm, in no circumstance will I go back toa petrol car.”
The function of the Atto 3 extends beyond emergency situations; the Holmes family also use discharging capabilities for more leisurely activities, such as warming red wine for a movie night. This illustrates the diverse applications of electric vehicles, transcending their role as eco-friendly transportation to become in dispensable power sources for various everyday situations.
Kristy Holmes first hand experience in Australia mirrors a broader pattern witnessed during the aftermath of Hurricane Ian on the Florida coast in 2022. Ford reported a notable 127% increase in the use of their F-150Lightning electric pickups as mobile power generators. In hurricane-affected regions, electric trucks emerged as vital resources for cooking meals and illuminating households, stressing the practical significance of EVs in disaster-stricken areas.
28. Why did Kristy Holmes use her electric car to power the dialysis machine
A. She wanted to test her new electric car.
B. She had easy access to power source from her car.
C. She wanted to show the potential uses of electric vehicles.
D. The car provided a more reliable power source than others.
29. What’s Holmes’ attitude towards the petrol car
A. Grateful. B. Favorable. C. Conservative. D. Negative.
30. Why did the author mention other examples in the last paragraph
A. To show the decreasing popularity of electric vehicles.
B. To criticize the dependence on electric vehicles in disasters.
C. To show the practicality of electric vehicles in emergencies.
D. To emphasize the environmental benefits of electric vehicles.
31. Where is the text most probably taken from
A. A personal diary. B. An advertisement. C. A book review. D. A newspaper.
【答案】28. B 29. D 30. C 31. D
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇新闻报道。文章主要说明了一名母亲Kristy Holmes通过电车为自己儿子的透析机供电，从而挽救了儿子的生命。
【28题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“The cars’ “vehicle to load” feature, which allows it to use extra energy from its battery to power house hold appliances, played an important role in keeping Levis dialysis machine running, preventing potentially life-threatening results.(该车的“车辆负载”功能允许它使用电池的额外能量来为家用电器供电，这在保持Levi的透析机运行，防止可能危及生命的结果方面发挥了重要作用)”可知，Kristy Holmes用她的电动汽车来驱动透析机因为她很容易从她的车里获得电源。故选B。
【29题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“It’s the most incredible car I’ve ever owned. After it saved my son during a storm, in no circumstance will I go back toa petrol car.(这是我拥有过的最令人难以置信的汽车。它在暴风雨中救了我的儿子，在任何情况下我都不会再开汽油车了)”可知，电动汽车救了Holmes儿子的命，她决定使用电动汽车，而不再使用汽油车，由此可推知，Holmes对汽油车的态度是消极的。故选D。
【30题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“Kristy Holmes first hand experience in Australia mirrors a broader pattern witnessed during the aftermath of Hurricane Ian on the Florida coast in 2022. Ford reported a notable 127% increase in the use of their F-150Lightning electric pickups as mobile power generators. In hurricane-affected regions, electric trucks emerged as vital resources for cooking meals and illuminating households, stressing the practical significance of EVs in disaster-stricken areas.(克里斯蒂·霍姆斯在澳大利亚的亲身经历反映了2022年飓风“伊恩”袭击佛罗里达海岸后更广泛的模式。福特报告称，其F-150Lightning电动皮卡作为移动发电机的使用显著增加了127%。在受飓风影响的地区，电动卡车成为做饭和家庭照明的重要资源，强调了电动汽车在受灾地区的现实意义)”可推知，作者在最后一段提到了其他的例子是为了展示电动汽车在紧急情况下的实用性。故选C。
【31题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段“Kristy Holmes, a mother from Australia, found a clever solution to power her son’s dialysis machine (透析机) when a massive storm caused a power failure in southeast Queensland on Christmas Day. This incident highlights the life-saving potential of electric vehicles (EVs) during emergencies.(圣诞节当天，一场大风暴导致昆士兰州东南部停电，来自澳大利亚的一位母亲Kristy Holmes想出了一个聪明的办法，为儿子的透析机供电。这一事件凸显了电动汽车在紧急情况下拯救生命的潜力)”结合文章主要说明了一名母亲Kristy Holmes通过电车为自己儿子的透析机供电，从而挽救了儿子的生命。可推知，文章选自新闻报道。故选D。
D
The most hated day of the week is misunderstood. When the Boomtown Rats, an Irish band, released “I Don’t Like Mondays” in 1979, the song became an instant hit.
What many do recognise all too well is the difficulty of gathering the energy to get out of bed on Monday mornings in order to face the week ahead. Many bosses argue that starting off the week in person in the office creates good energy. However, plenty of employees beg to differ.
A paper published by the Journal of Applied Psychology, found that people tend to be more ill-mannered on Mondays, and grow more polite as the week unfolds. The authors have diagnosed a new condition, Mondayitis, which is defined. as “a systemic illness with collections of symptoms including tiredness, light-headedness, dry mouth and headache”. These symptoms typically appear on the first working day after a period off work, which could be a weekend or a longer holiday. They can lead sufferers to call in sick, decide to work from home or, if they do show up in the office, come across as detached (冷漠的) and unavailable. Mondayitis appears to be infecting other days of the week.
However, the covid-19 pandemic has led many people to re-evaluate their work-life balance. A lawyer in London who spends weekends working on cases likes to ease into the formal workweek with an elegant breakfast in a fancy restaurant. A broader movement is promoting the idea of a four-day work week, one arrangement of which would make Monday part of the weekend. Less ambitiously, and more realistically, asocial-media campaign for “bare-minimum Mondays” argues for a gentle start to the week.
You may have prepared or merely enjoyed a more elaborate meal than a sandwich. You may have gone for a walk in the park or simply lay in bed. Either way, you almost certainly cleared your head. When revived and spirited, you will have a fresh start.
32. What does the underlined part “beg to differ” in Paragraph 2 mean
A. Approve. B. Object. C. Submit. D. Complain.
33. What can we know about employees on Mondays in Paragraph 3
A. They are ill-mannered but ready to help others.
B. They may suffer from tiredness or light-headedness.
C. They tend to infect others with their bad performance.
D. They want to come to the office rather than work from home.
34. What can we do to refresh ourselves on Mondays according to the author
A. Start to work early. B. Grab a quick meal.
C. Take a walk in the park. D. Have a tight schedule.
35. What is the author’s purpose in writing the last two paragraphs
A. To tell us ways to tackle Mondayitis. B. To explain how to gain work-life balance.
C. To offer tips on how to keep fit on weekdays. D. To persuade us not to work too hard on Mondays.
【答案】32. B 33. B 34. C 35. A
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了什么是“周一综合征”以及解决方法。
【32题详解】
词句猜测题。根据划线词上文“Many bosses argue that starting off the week in person in the office creates good energy.( 许多老板认为，在办公室亲自开始新的一周会产生良好的活力)”以及however表示转折，可知，许多老板认为，在办公室亲自开始新的一周会产生良好的活力。然而，很多员工却对此表示反对。故划线词意思是“反对”。故选B。
【33题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“The authors have diagnosed a new condition, Mondayitis, which is defined as “a systemic illness with collections of symptoms including tiredness, light-headedness, dry mouth and headache”. (作者诊断出了一种新的疾病——周一综合征，它被定义为“一种全身性疾病，症状包括疲劳、头晕、口干和头痛”)”可知，周一的员工可能会感到疲劳或头晕。故选B。
【34题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段“You may have gone for a walk in the park or simply lay in bed.(你可能会去公园散步，或者只是躺在床上)”可知，我们周一可以在公园散步来提神。故选C。
【35题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“However, the covid-19 pandemic has led many people to re-evaluate their work-life balance. A lawyer in London who spends weekends working on cases likes to ease into the formal workweek with an elegant breakfast in a fancy restaurant. A broader movement is promoting the idea of a four-day work week, one arrangement of which would make Monday part of the weekend. Less ambitiously, and more realistically, asocial-media campaign for “bare-minimum Mondays” argues for a gentle start to the week.(然而，2019冠状病毒病大流行导致许多人重新评估他们的工作与生活平衡。一位伦敦的律师在周末处理案件，他喜欢在一家高档餐厅吃一顿优雅的早餐，轻松地进入正式的工作日。一项更广泛的运动正在推动一周工作四天的想法，其中一项安排是将周一变成周末的一部分。不那么雄心勃勃，但更现实的是，社交媒体上发起的“最少周一”运动主张一周的开始要温和一些)”以及最后一段“You may have prepared or merely enjoyed a more elaborate meal than a sandwich. You may have gone for a walk in the park or simply lay in bed. Either way, you almost certainly cleared your head. When revived and spirited, you will have a fresh start.(你可能准备了或者只是享受了一顿比三明治更精致的大餐。你可能会去公园散步，或者只是躺在床上。不管怎样，你几乎肯定清空了头脑。当你重新振作起来的时候，你会有一个全新的开始)”可知，作者写最后两段的目的是告诉我们解决“周一综合症”的方法。故选A。

How can I make my family happy This important question holds the key to more meaningful relationships with the other members of your household. To help you get started, here are some suggestions to brighten your family members’ days.

【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了一些让家人高兴的方法。
【36题详解】
根据上文“Have meals together as often as possible. Parents work and kids have after-school activities, so it’s tough to have breakfast and dinner together every day.(尽可能多地在一起吃饭。父母要工作，孩子们有课外活动，所以每天一起吃早餐和晚餐很难)”以及后文“Family meals are a key routine and can help you stay involved in each other’s lives.(家庭聚餐是一个关键的日常，可以帮助你保持参与彼此的生活)”可知，本句为上文构成转折，指出应该多进行家庭聚餐，后文解释其重要性。故C选项“然而，尽可能多地在一起吃饭”符合语境，故选C。
【37题详解】
根据后文“It is very important that you let them know about your life. That way, they can understand you, congratulate or empathize with you and generally know what’s going on in your life. In turn, it is equally important that you know about their lives too, so that they feel understood, supported and can be reassured that they are not alone.(让他们了解你的生活是非常重要的。这样，他们就能理解你，祝贺你或同情你，并且大致知道你生活中发生了什么。反过来，同样重要的是，你也要了解他们的生活，这样他们才会感到被理解、被支持，并确信他们并不孤单)”可知，后文提到了让某人了解自己的生活，可知本句是在总起本段，指出后文them指的是“family members”。故B选项“在一天结束的时候和你的家人谈谈”符合语境，故选B。
【38题详解】
根据上文“Set aside time for regular family activities. Regular activities could include bike rides, walks, or playing cards or board games.(为定期的家庭活动留出时间。定期活动包括骑自行车、散步、打牌或棋盘游戏)”可知，本句主要是在建议为家庭活动留出时间，故F选项“如果可能的话，每周至少抽出一个下午或晚上参加家庭活动”符合语境，故选F。
【39题详解】
根据上文“Learn what they love doing and ask questions about it. Ask them how their hobby, their interest or their work is going.(了解他们喜欢做什么，并就此提出问题。问问他们的爱好、兴趣或工作进展如何)”可知，上文提到了询问对方的爱好、兴趣或工作进展，故本句承接上文，说明如何回应他们的回答。故D选项“当他们告诉你的时候，做一个积极的倾听者，并尽可能地学习”符合语境，故选D。
【40题详解】
根据上文“Even the smallest things count. With a simple text or a brief phone call, you can make someone’s day.(即使是最小的东西也算数。一个简单的短信或一个简短的电话，你可以让别人的一天)”以及后文“When you know that someone is going through a hard time, call, text, or be with them at their time of need like you would like them to do for you.(当你知道某人正在经历一段艰难的时期，打电话，发短信，或者在他们需要的时候和他们在一起，就像你希望他们为你做的那样)”可知，后文提到了向对方表示支持，即留下积极的信息，鼓舞对方。故E选项“只要确保你留下一个积极的信息，让他们感到高兴”符合语境，故选E。

I wanted to go to a party. Who wouldn’t Especially as this was no ordinary party. It was a beach party. It had been almost the only thing my friends had been talking about for the last couple of weeks. But there was a problem…and a big problem. My mom had said no. I was desperate, and the more desperately I asked, the more firmly my mother said no. I begged that everyone was going. However, my mother replied that she didn’t care who was going and that I was not going. I was disappointed. I was heartbroken. This was my best friend’s party.
Sunday dinner came around and my grandmother joined the family for the meal. Gran noticed how unhappy I had been looking during the meal but didn’t say a thing. It was my turn to wash up and Gran asked me there as on while the rest of the family shifted into the living room to watch TV.
I said sadly to Gran that my mom wouldn’t let me go to my best friend’s party. Gran asked if my mom had explained why. I replied no. Gran said that I should put myself in my mom’s position for a moment and consider what objections I would have if I were my mom.
After thinking for a moment or two, I told her that maybe my mom didn’t trust us or thought we would get into trouble at the beach party. I also suggested that maybe she was worried we would drown, but added that we all knew how to swim and look after ourselves.
Gran asked if there would be any adults at the party. I said no and added that who wanted their parents hanging around when trying to have fun. Gran suggested that my mother might just be concerned and didn’t want anything to happen to me. I objected that nothing would happen. “Maybe you’re right,” said Gran, “but may be Mom’s worried in case it could.”
注意：1.续写词数应为150左右;

【答案】范文
“Maybe think of some solutions, ” suggested Gran. “Your mother is probably just worried about your safety. See if there is way you can ease her concerns and still enjoy the party.” I took her words to heart and began brainstorming ideas. Could we perhaps invite a responsible adult to accompany us Or establish a set of rules and guidelines to ensure everyone’s safety Determined to find a compromise, I set out to devise a plan that would satisfy both my mother and my desire to attend the party.
Then I ran to my mother in no time. I explained my idea of inviting a trusted friend’s parent to accompany us to the beach party, ensuring that there would be adult supervision present. My mother listened attentively, her expression softening as she heard my proposal. After a moment of consideration, she nodded her head in agreement. I let out a sigh of relief, grateful for my mother’s understanding and for Gran’ advice. With this newfound permission, I was finally able to look forward to the beach party with excitement and anticipation.

A
It’s not easy to offer a short version of all that attracts travelers to Latin America, but there are a few must-see spots that we have narrowed down for you.
Machu Picchu
Perched in the high mountains above the town of Cusco, the ancient Incan city of Machu Picchuisa wonder of the world on par (齐名) with the pyramids of Egypt, and the Great Wall of China. The view from the top is beautiful whether it’s clear or shrouded in fog, although there are fewer crowds during the wet season between December and April.
La Candelaria
La Candelaria in Colombia is a jewel of the old world set on the edges of the modern metropolis of Bogota. La Candelaria has jealously guarded its unique charm against the winds of change. Home to museums, cathedrals, cafes and restaurants, La Candelaria is easy to love and hard to leave.
Lago de Atitlan
Created by an enormous volcanic eruption 84,000 years ago and still ringed by active volcanos, Lagode Atitlan in Guatemala is the deepest lake in Central America, and it’s almost too beautiful to believe: The crystal-blue waters below, volcanic backdrop beyond and stunning cloud formations above make for one truly unforgettable sight. Along the water’s edge, there are plenty of cozy lake towns where you can have fun.
Iguazu Falls

On a sunny morning, I walked casually through the park, savoring the gentle breeze, with the simple desire to locate a quiet spot for a good book. Little did I know that an unexpected encounter with a naughty creature would turn this peaceful outing into an unforgettable experience.
Settling down on a comfortable bench under an oak tree, I was fascinated by a novel, lost in a world of fictional characters. Suddenly, a strange sound interrupted me. Curiously, I glanced in the direction of the noise, only to discover a squirrel hurrying towards my bag. Immediately, I reached out to protect my bag from the thief. But the squirrel ran away, grasping a chocolate bar stolen from my bag. Fueled by determination to get my. snack back, I gave chase to the creature through the park.
The squirrel displayed impressive flexibility, effortlessly jumping onto trees and leaping from branch to branch. Children and bystanders couldn’t help but laugh at the spectacle of a grown adult chasing a squirrel. The chase continued , and as I ran after the squirrel, I became both exhausted and awkward. The peacefulness of the park transformed into a lively playground, with laughter echoing around us. The squirrel, seemingly aware of its comical effect, increased its speed and finally vanished into thin air.
As I made my way back to the bench, my heart still raced from the pursuit. I couldn’t help but feel a sense of companionship with the squirrel. It had reminded me to embrace the unexpected, to break free from routine, and most importantly, to find joy in life’s simplest pleasures. From that day forward, whenever I visit the park, I always keep a chocolate bar handy, just in case I come across my friend.

Kristy Holmes, a mother from Australia, found a clever solution to power her son’s dialysis machine (透析机) when a massive storm caused a power failure in southeast Queensland on Christmas Day. This incident highlights the life-saving potential of electric vehicles (EVs) during emergencies.
Facing a dire situation with her 11-year-old son Levi, who is waiting for a kidney transplant, Kristy Holmes turned to her electric car, the Atto 3, made by Chinese EV company BYD. The cars’ “vehicle to load” feature, which allows it to use extra energy from its battery to power house hold appliances, played an important role in keeping Levi dialysis machine running, preventing potentially life-threatening results.
In an interview with The Guardian, Kristy Holmes expressed her appreciation, stating, “We powered the dialysis machine using the car. We only needed it for one night. We could have used it for at least four nights before needing to charge the car.” Highlighting the significant role the car played, she remarked, “It’s the most incredible car I’ve ever owned. After it saved my son during a storm, in no circumstance will I go back toa petrol car.”
The function of the Atto 3 extends beyond emergency situations; the Holmes family also use discharging capabilities for more leisurely activities, such as warming red wine for a movie night. This illustrates the diverse applications of electric vehicles, transcending their role as eco-friendly transportation to become in dispensable power sources for various everyday situations.
Kristy Holmes first hand experience in Australia mirrors a broader pattern witnessed during the aftermath of Hurricane Ian on the Florida coast in 2022. Ford reported a notable 127% increase in the use of their F-150Lightning electric pickups as mobile power generators. In hurricane-affected regions, electric trucks emerged as vital resources for cooking meals and illuminating households, stressing the practical significance of EVs in disaster-stricken areas.
28. Why did Kristy Holmes use her electric car to power the dialysis machine
A. She wanted to test her new electric car.
B She had easy access to power source from her car.
C. She wanted to show the potential uses of electric vehicles.
D. The car provided a more reliable power source than others.
29. What’s Holmes’ attitude towards the petrol car
A. Grateful. B. Favorable. C. Conservative. D. Negative.
30. Why did the author mention other examples in the last paragraph
A. To show the decreasing popularity of electric vehicles.
B. To criticize the dependence on electric vehicles in disasters.
C. To show the practicality of electric vehicles in emergencies.
D. To emphasize the environmental benefits of electric vehicles.
31. Where is the text most probably taken from
A. A personal diary. B. An advertisement. C. A book review. D. A newspaper.
D
The most hated day of the week is misunderstood. When the Boomtown Rats, an Irish band, released “I Don’t Like Mondays” in 1979, the song became an instant hit.
What many do recognise all too well is the difficulty of gathering the energy to get out of bed on Monday mornings in order to face the week ahead. Many bosses argue that starting off the week in person in the office creates good energy. However, plenty of employees beg to differ.
A paper published by the Journal of Applied Psychology, found that people tend to be more ill-mannered on Mondays, and grow more polite as the week unfolds. The authors have diagnosed a new condition, Mondayitis, which is defined. as “a systemic illness with collections of symptoms including tiredness, light-headedness, dry mouth and headache”. These symptoms typically appear on the first working day after a period off work, which could be a weekend or a longer holiday. They can lead sufferers to call in sick, decide to work from home or, if they do show up in the office, come across as detached (冷漠的) and unavailable. Mondayitis appears to be infecting other days of the week.
However, the covid-19 pandemic has led many people to re-evaluate their work-life balance. A lawyer in London who spends weekends working on cases likes to ease into the formal workweek with an elegant breakfast in a fancy restaurant. A broader movement is promoting the idea of a four-day work week, one arrangement of which would make Monday part of the weekend. Less ambitiously, and more realistically, asocial-media campaign for “bare-minimum Mondays” argues for a gentle start to the week.
You may have prepared or merely enjoyed a more elaborate meal than a sandwich. You may have gone for a walk in the park or simply lay in bed. Either way, you almost certainly cleared your head. When revived and spirited, you will have a fresh start.
32. What does the underlined part “beg to differ” in Paragraph 2 mean
A Approve. B. Object. C. Submit. D. Complain.
33. What can we know about employees on Mondays in Paragraph 3
A. They are ill-mannered but ready to help others.
B. They may suffer from tiredness or light-headedness.
C. They tend to infect others with their bad performance.
D. They want to come to the office rather than work from home.
34. What can we do to refresh ourselves on Mondays according to the author
A. Start to work early. B. Grab a quick meal.
C. Take a walk in the park. D. Have a tight schedule.
35. What is the author’s purpose in writing the last two paragraphs
A. To tell us ways to tackle Mondayitis. B. To explain how to gain work-life balance.
C. To offer tips on how to keep fit on weekdays. D. To persuade us not to work too hard on Mondays.

I wanted to go to a party. Who wouldn’t Especially as this was no ordinary party. It was a beach party. It had been almost the only thing my friends had been talking about for the last couple of weeks. But there was a problem…and a big problem. My mom had said no. I was desperate, and the more desperately I asked, the more firmly my mother said no. I begged that everyone was going. However, my mother replied that she didn’t care who was going and that I was not going. I was disappointed. I was heartbroken. This was my best friend’s party.
Sunday dinner came around and my grandmother joined the family for the meal. Gran noticed how unhappy I had been looking during the meal but didn’t say a thing. It was my turn to wash up and Gran asked me there as on while the rest of the family shifted into the living room to watch TV.
I said sadly to Gran that my mom wouldn’t let me go to my best friend’s party. Gran asked if my mom had explained why. I replied no. Gran said that I should put myself in my mom’s position for a moment and consider what objections I would have if I were my mom.
After thinking for a moment or two, I told her that maybe my mom didn’t trust us or thought we would get into trouble at the beach party. I also suggested that maybe she was worried we would drown, but added that we all knew how to swim and look after ourselves.
Gran asked if there would be any adults at the party. I said no and added that who wanted their parents hanging around when trying to have fun. Gran suggested that my mother might just be concerned and didn’t want anything to happen to me. I objected that nothing would happen. “Maybe you’re right,” said Gran, “but may be Mom’s worried in case it could.”
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。
“Maybe think of some solutions,” suggested Gran.
