In 1948, Ladies Home Journal selected our family for its “How America Lives” feature. The reporter and photographer arrived at the end of May and followed all of us (Mom, Dad, my brother, sister and me) for a week, recording our every move. Everyone was pretty excited about it, especially in our town of 6,000, where things like this just didn’t happen.
Since the article would be published in early December, we had to pretend it was already autumn. The reporter asked mom to cook and serve a complete Thanksgiving meal. She told Mom to “go all out” and use her best holiday dishes for the feast.
Mom’s face fell. She didn’t want to admit that our best dishes weren’t exactly the best, let alone suitable for a national magazine. While the reporter continued with her interview, the photographer quietly excused himself and slipped away for over an hour. When he came back, he had a large box, which he placed on the floor, telling Mom to open it.
Her mouth wide open, her face lit up as if it was Christmas. Inside was a beautiful set of 12 dishes, each painted with patterns of flowers and golden brims (金边), made by the Homer Laughlin China Co. There was even a soup bowl, something we kids had never seen before. Mom was near tears as she lovingly handled each piece.
When it came time to serve dinner, Mom walked slowly from the kitchen with the lovely new plate, which contained a small “turkey” (in reality, a large chicken).
From that day on, Mom made sure they never saw the light of day unless it was a major event, though they were a must at every Thanksgiving.
I carry on the tradition, using the dishes for our Thanksgiving feast. But I serve a real turkey, and I serve it on the real Thanksgiving Day.
24. Where did the photographer possibly go while mom was interviewed
A. A bookstore. B. A china store. C. A flower shop. D. A candy shop.
25. What was mother’s first reaction when seeing the beautiful dishes
A. She was calm as usual. B. She was moved into tears.

A. To persuade readers to buy the same dishes her family cherishes.
B. To tell us about the moving story behind the family-cherished dishes.
C. To contribute an article concerning her family to a popular magazine.

Advances in AI and machine learning have sparked interest from governments that would like to use these tools for patrolling (巡查) purposefully before hand to prevent crime. However, early efforts at crime prediction have been controversial, because they do not allow for systematic biases (偏见) in police enforcement and its complex relationship with crime and society.
University of Chicago (UC) data and social scientists have developed a new algorithm (算法) that forecasts crime by learning patterns in time and geographic locations from public data on violent and property crimes. It has demonstrated success at predicting future crimes one week in advance with approximately 90% accuracy.
The new tool was tested and validated using historical data from the City of Chicago around two broad categories of reported events: violent crimes and property crimes.
The new model isolates crime by looking at the time and spatial coordinates (坐标) of separate events and detecting patterns to predict future events. It divides the city into spatial sections roughly 1,000 feet across and predicts crime within these areas instead of relying on traditional neighborhood or political boundaries, which are also subject to bias. The model performed just as well with data from seven other US cities.
Ishanu Chattopadhyay, senior author of the study, is careful to note that the tool’s accuracy does not mean that it should be used to direct law enforcement, with police departments using it to flock to neighborhoods ahead of time to stop crime. Instead, it should be added to a toolbox of urban policies and policing strategies to address crime.
“We created a digital twin of urban environments. If you feed it data from what happened in the past, it will tell you what’s going to happen in future. It’s not magical; there are limitations, but we tested it and it works well,” Chattopadhyay said. “Now you can use this as a model tool to see what happens if crime goes up in one area, or there is increased enforcement in another area. If you apply all these different data, you can see how the system evolves in response.”
28. What information would data and social scientists in UC collect
A. Periods of traffic jams. B. Items of lost and found.
C. Thefts and robberies on the street. D. Casualty (伤亡) in traffic accidents.
29. What does the underlined word “validated” in Paragraph 3 mean
A. Confirmed. B. Modified. C. Classified. D. Abandoned.
30. What’s Paragraph 4 mainly about
A. The advantages and disadvantages of this new tool.
B. The principles and good performances of this new tool.
C. Positive feedback from some other experts in this field.
D. The hard process of Chattopadhyay’s developing this tool.
31. What can we know from Chattopadhyay’s opinion on the tool’s use
A. He does not think it’s accurate enough to put into use.
B. The limitations are to be removed for a better performance.
C. The police department can wholly rely on it to prevent criminals.
D. It can be of help when the authority make policies concerning crimes.
【答案】28. C 29. A 30. B 31. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了芝加哥大学的数据和社会科学家开发了一种新算法，该算法通过从公开的暴力和财产犯罪数据中学习时间和地理位置模式来预测犯罪。它已成功地提前一周预测未来犯罪，准确率约为90%。
【28题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第二段“University of Chicago(UC) data and social scientists have developed a new algorithm that forecasts crime by learning patterns in time and geographic locations from public data on violent and property crimes.(芝加哥大学的数据和社会科学家研发了一种新算法，该算法通过从公开的暴力和财产犯罪数据中学习时间和地理位置模式来预测犯罪)”可知，芝加哥大学的数据和社会科学家将收集有关街头盗窃和抢劫的信息。故选C项。
【29题详解】
词义猜测题。根据划线词前“The new tool was tested(新工具经过测试)”及划线词后“using historical data from the City of Chicago around two broad categories of reported events: violent crimes and property crimes.(使用芝加哥市关于两大类报道事件的历史数据：暴力犯罪和财产犯罪)”可推知，该新工具使用芝加哥市关于暴力犯罪和财产犯罪两大类报告事件的历史数据是为了进行测试和验证，故划线词与confirmed“证明，证实”意义相近。故选A项。
【30题详解】
主旨大意题。根据文章第四段“The new model isolates crime by looking at the time and spatial coordinates of separate events and detecting patterns to predict future events. It divides the city into spatial sections roughly 1,000 feet across and predicts crime within these areas instead of relying on traditional neighborhood or political boundaries, which are also subject to bias. The model performed just as well with data from seven other US cities.(新模型通过观察单独事件的时间和空间坐标，并检测模式来预测未来事件，从而隔离犯罪。它将城市划分为大约1000英尺宽的空间区域，并预测这些区域内的犯罪，而不是依赖传统的社区或政治边界，这些边界也会受到偏见的影响。该模型与来自美国其他七个城市的数据表现同样良好)”可知，第四段主要介绍了这个新工具的原理和良好的性能。故选B项。
【31题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第五段“Ishanu Chattopadhyay, senior author of the study, is careful to note that the tool’s accuracy does not mean that it should be used to direct law enforcement, with police departments using it to flock to neighborhoods ahead of time to stop crime. Instead, it should be added to a toolbox of urban policies and policing strategies to address crime.(该研究的资深作者Ishanu Chattopadhyay谨慎地指出，该工具的准确性并不意味着它应该用于指导执法，警察部门使用它来提前涌向社区阻止犯罪。相反，它应该被添加到城市政策和警务战略的工具箱中，以解决犯罪问题)”可知，Ishanu Chattopadhyay认为当局制定有关犯罪的政策时，这个工具可能会有所帮助。故选D项。
D
Solar power is one of the fastest growing sources of renewable power globally these years. Solar photothermal (光热) and solar photovoltaic (PV光伏)are both technical forms.
The thermal power station adopts the generation mode of “light--heat--electricity”. Thousands of heliostats (定日镜) reflect the sunlight to the surface of the heat absorber on the top of the solar tower. The concentrated sunlight is then used either directly as a source of heat, as in solar water heating, or to drive a heat cycle such as a Sterling Engine. PVs use semi-conductor technology to directly convert sunlight into electricity. The PV line is connected to the direct current (DC) distribution cabinet in parallel through the DC combiner box. After confluence (汇合), it is connected to the DC input end of the inverter to convert DC into alternating current (AC). The AC output end of the inverter is connected to the AC distribution cabinet and directly connected to the user side through the AC distribution cabinet.
Additionally, since solar thermal directly produces heat, it can store thermal energy into various media. Therefore, solar thermal can potentially generate power 24 hours a day. On the other hand, PVs only operate when the sun is shining, and must be coupled either with other power generation mechanisms to ensure a constant supply of electricity.
The scale of PV power generation can be large or small, ranging from thousands of watts to hundreds of megawatts, but photothermal power generation is typical economies of scale. With the increase of scale, the lower the power generation cost.
PV power generation is less limited by region, for the sun shines on the pared with other sources of renewable power, the PV system is safe and reliable as well as eco-friendly. Since it can be convenient for local power generation and power supply, you do not worry about consuming fuel or erecting transmission lines. A small PV power can be constructed in a short period with no noise or low pollution.
32. How does the author develop the text
A. By making comparisons. B. By giving examples.
C. By making assumptions. D. By analyzing statistics.
33. What’s the last stop before the PV line is connected to the user side
A. The DC distribution cabinet. B. The DC input end of the inverter.
C. The AC distribution cabinet. D. The AC output end of the inverter.
34. What aspect does the last paragraph focus on PV power generation
A. Its popularity. B. Its efficiency. C. Its cost. D. Its advantages.
35. Which of the following can be the best title for the text
A. Solar Thermal vs. Solar Photovoltaic
B. Some facts about Solar Photovoltaic
C. The development of solar power generation
D. The wide use and promising future of solar power
【答案】32. A 33. C 34. D 35. A

58. located
mercial
60. who 61. representative
62. vividly
63. with 64. have stood
65. to adapt
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍的是老字号商店的特点和意义。
【56题详解】
考查冠词。句意：Lǎozìhào指的是老的和著名的商店，它们一直是可靠的和值得信赖的，并且长期以来在人们的心目中仍然享有不可替代的地位。position是可数名词的单数形式，表泛指，前面要加不定冠词，irreplaceable是元音音素开头，因此不定冠词用an，故填an。
【57题详解】
考查名词所有格。句意：它们不仅代表着高质量和良好的声誉，而且也成为人们日常生活中不可或缺的一部分。people和daily life之间是所属关系，因此空格处用名词所有格people’s，故填people’s。
【58题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：位于北京市中心前门的全聚德、同仁堂等著名老字号，都代表了老北京高度发达的商业文化。句中谓语是have represented，空格处用非谓语动词，Quanjude and Tongrentang和locate之间是逻辑动宾关系，因此空格处用过去分词表被动，故填located。
【59题详解】
考查形容词。句意：位于北京市中心前门的全聚德、同仁堂等著名老字号，都代表了老北京高度发达的商业文化。空格处用形容词作定语，修饰名词culture，commerce的形容词是commercial，意为“商业的”，故填commercial。
【60题详解】
考查定语从句。句意：没吃过烤鸭，后悔一辈子——这样的俗语让全聚德成为了北京的代表。空格处引导的是限制性定语从句，从句中缺少主语，先行词He是人，因此空格处用关系代词who，故填who。
【61题详解】
考查名词。句意：没吃过烤鸭，后悔一辈子——这样的俗语让全聚德成为了北京的代表。全聚德是北京的代表，空格处意为“代表”，是representative，空前有a，空格处用单数，故填representative。
【62题详解】
考查副词。句意：民间还有许多类似的两段式寓言，也生动地揭示了这些老店的特点。空格处用副词修饰动词revealed，vivid的副词是vividly，意为“生动地”。故填vividly。
【63题详解】
考查介词。句意：如今，随着经济的快速发展和现代社会竞争的激烈，一些Lǎozìhào商店一直与时俱进，通过不断的改革和创新来发扬自己的品牌。keep pace with是固定短语，意为“跟上，紧跟”，故填with。
【64题详解】
考查时态和主谓一致。句意：这就是为什么他们经受住了时间的考验，在竞争中生存下来，而另一些人却因为无法适应现代社会生活的快速变化而淡出了历史。根据语境可知，句子表示“这就是为什么他们已经经受住了时间的考验”，空格处所在部分时态是现在完成时，主语they是复数，因此空格处是have stood，故填have stood。
【65题详解】
考查不定式。句意：这就是为什么他们经受住了时间的考验，在竞争中生存下来，而另一些人却因为无法适应现代社会生活的快速变化而淡出了历史。inability后用不定式作后置定语，因此空格处是不定式to adapt。故填to adapt。

67. 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。
In DeAnza Community College, 15 minutes’ drive from the university Trevor Wallace studied in, his beloved grandmother had worked there. When she was alive, she was a respected learning disabilities specialist and instructor. In recognition of her work, her co-workers dedicated a large, cement angel fountain with a plaque (匾) saying Heart’s Garden: In Memory of Marilyn Rosenthal. That was in 1999.
Trevor knew well that the fountain meant a lot to his mom, Sarene. She was only 36 when her mom died. At the sight of anything to do with her mother, she would tell stories or anecdotes related, especially the fountain. Though she cherished it, living six hours away, she didn’t have the opportunity to visit it regularly.
As time went on, the fountain was hidden under trees, falling into disrepair----the statue’s bowl at its base broken; cement benches nearby damaged; the water pump blocked with leaves and the surrounding area littered with dead leaves and trash, etc.
Finally, in 2013, it was once repaired by one of the school gatekeepers, who thought she was popular with colleagues and students when she was alive. After knowing the repair, Sarene and Trevor took the 300-mile trip to visit it. On a quiet afternoon, they posed for a photo together. Sarene recalled, “We sat watching the fountain for a while. The water welled over then it went into the bowls. It was so peaceful.”
Flash forward to 2015. When deciding what to give his mom for Mother’s Day, the fountain came to mind. Trevor called Sarene that Sunday to wish her a happy Mother’s Day and told her to expect a surprise. Then he drove to DeAnza with his camera, tripod, and two sponges.
When he arrived, the fountain was covered with leaves and piled with dirt, in worse shape than he had expected. Motivated by memories of his late grandmother, whom he called “Bubby”, he set up his camera on the tripod, checked the lighting and took a before shot. Then his hand-scrubbing (手工擦洗) work began.
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。
There was one problem—the fountain’s water was turned off.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
When she opened the photos attached in the three emails, she burst into tears.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】范文：
There was one problem—the fountain’s water was turned off. Without water, a shiny site was next to impossible. So, Trevor purchased a big bottle from a vending machine. “I was out there pouring water on an abandoned fountain. People were looking at me as if I am crazy.” Trevor refilled the water bottle multiple times. It took him about two hours to clean up the best he could. Afterward, another picture was shot. Content with his work done, he sent his mom three separate emails with those photos attached.
When she opened the photos attached in the three emails, she burst into tears. The three emails showed a vivid contrast between the before and after photo of the fountain, as well as her son’s painful efforts made to restore the fountain. She was shocked. Trevor says listening was a key component of his gift. Over the years he minded his mom’s constant mentions of the fountain and of Bubby. Sarene replied cleaning the fountain was her favorite Mother’s Day gift--the best connection between her mother and herself.

In 1948, Ladies Home Journal selected our family for its “How America Lives” feature. The reporter and photographer arrived at the end of May and followed all of us (Mom, Dad, my brother, sister and me) for a week, recording our every move. Everyone was pretty excited about it, especially in our town of 6,000, where things like this just didn’t happen.
Since the article would be published in early December, we had to pretend it was already autumn. The reporter asked mom to cook and serve a complete Thanksgiving meal. She told Mom to “go all out” and use her best holiday dishes for the feast.
Mom’s face fell. She didn’t want to admit that our best dishes weren’t exactly the best, let alone suitable for a national magazine. While the reporter continued with her interview, the photographer quietly excused himself and slipped away for over an hour. When he came back, he had a large box, which he placed on the floor, telling Mom to open it.
Her mouth wide open, her face lit up as if it was Christmas. Inside was a beautiful set of 12 dishes, each painted with patterns of flowers and golden brims (金边), made by the Homer Laughlin China Co. There was even a soup bowl, something we kids had never seen before. Mom was near tears as she lovingly handled each piece.
When it came time to serve dinner, Mom walked slowly from the kitchen with the lovely new plate, which contained a small “turkey” (in reality, a large chicken).
From that day on, Mom made sure they never saw the light of day unless it was a major event, though they were a must at every Thanksgiving.
I carry on the tradition, using the dishes for our Thanksgiving feast. But I serve a real turkey, and I serve it on the real Thanksgiving Day.

Advances in AI and machine learning have sparked interest from governments that would like to use these tools for patrolling (巡查) purposefully before hand to prevent crime. However, early efforts at crime prediction have been controversial, because they do not allow for systematic biases (偏见) in police enforcement and its complex relationship with crime and society.
University of Chicago (UC) data and social scientists have developed a new algorithm (算法) that forecasts crime by learning patterns in time and geographic locations from public data on violent and property crimes. It has demonstrated success at predicting future crimes one week in advance with approximately 90% accuracy.
The new tool was tested and validated using historical data from the City of Chicago around two broad categories of reported events: violent crimes and property crimes.
The new model isolates crime by looking at the time and spatial coordinates (坐标) of separate events and detecting patterns to predict future events. It divides the city into spatial sections roughly 1,000 feet across and predicts crime within these areas instead of relying on traditional neighborhood or political boundaries, which are also subject to bias. The model performed just as well with data from seven other US cities.
Ishanu Chattopadhyay, senior author of the study, is careful to note that the tool’s accuracy does not mean that it should be used to direct law enforcement, with police departments using it to flock to neighborhoods ahead of time to stop crime. Instead, it should be added to a toolbox of urban policies and policing strategies to address crime.
“We created a digital twin of urban environments. If you feed it data from what happened in the past, it will tell you what’s going to happen in future. It’s not magical; there are limitations, but we tested it and it works well,” Chattopadhyay said. “Now you can use this as a model tool to see what happens if crime goes up in one area, or there is increased enforcement in another area. If you apply all these different data, you can see how the system evolves in response.”
28. What information would data and social scientists in UC collect
A. Periods of traffic jams. B. Items of lost and found.
C. Thefts and robberies on the street. D. Casualty (伤亡) in traffic accidents.
29. What does the underlined word “validated” in Paragraph 3 mean
A. Confirmed. B. Modified. C. Classified. D. Abandoned.
30. What’s Paragraph 4 mainly about
A. The advantages and disadvantages of this new tool.
B. The principles and good performances of this new tool.
C. Positive feedback from some other experts in this field.
D. The hard process of Chattopadhyay’s developing this tool.
31. What can we know from Chattopadhyay’s opinion on the tool’s use
A. He does not think it’s accurate enough to put into use.
B. The limitations are to be removed for a better performance.
C. The police department can wholly rely on it to prevent criminals.
D. It can be of help when the authority make policies concerning crimes.
D
Solar power is one of the fastest growing sources of renewable power globally these years. Solar photothermal (光热) and solar photovoltaic (PV光伏)are both technical forms.
The thermal power station adopts the generation mode of “light--heat--electricity”. Thousands of heliostats (定日镜) reflect the sunlight to the surface of the heat absorber on the top of the solar tower. The concentrated sunlight is then used either directly as a source of heat, as in solar water heating, or to drive a heat cycle such as a Sterling Engine. PVs use semi-conductor technology to directly convert sunlight into electricity. The PV line is connected to the direct current (DC) distribution cabinet in parallel through the DC combiner box. After confluence (汇合), it is connected to the DC input end of the inverter to convert DC into alternating current (AC). The AC output end of the inverter is connected to the AC distribution cabinet and directly connected to the user side through the AC distribution cabinet.
Additionally, since solar thermal directly produces heat, it can store thermal energy into various media. Therefore, solar thermal can potentially generate power 24 hours a day. On the other hand, PVs only operate when the sun is shining, and must be coupled either with other power generation mechanisms to ensure a constant supply of electricity.
The scale of PV power generation can be large or small, ranging from thousands of watts to hundreds of megawatts, but photothermal power generation is typical economies of scale. With the increase of scale, the lower the power generation cost.
PV power generation is less limited by region, for the sun shines on the pared with other sources of renewable power, the PV system is safe and reliable as well as eco-friendly. Since it can be convenient for local power generation and power supply, you do not worry about consuming fuel or erecting transmission lines. A small PV power can be constructed in a short period with no noise or low pollution.
32. How does the author develop the text
A. By making comparisons. B. By giving examples.
C. By making assumptions. D. By analyzing statistics.
33. What’s the last stop before the PV line is connected to the user side
A. The DC distribution cabinet. B. The DC input end of the inverter.
C. The AC distribution cabinet. D. The AC output end of the inverter.
34. What aspect does the last paragraph focus on PV power generation
A Its popularity. B. Its efficiency. C. Its cost. D. Its advantages.
35. Which of the following can be the best title for the text
A. Solar Thermal vs. Solar Photovoltaic
B. Some facts about Solar Photovoltaic
C. The development of solar power generation
D. The wide use and promising future of solar power

67. 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。
In DeAnza Community College, 15 minutes’ drive from the university Trevor Wallace studied in, his beloved grandmother had worked there. When she was alive, she was a respected learning disabilities specialist and instructor. In recognition of her work, her co-workers dedicated a large, cement angel fountain with a plaque (匾) saying Heart’s Garden: In Memory of Marilyn Rosenthal. That was in 1999.
Trevor knew well that the fountain meant a lot to his mom, Sarene. She was only 36 when her mom died. At the sight of anything to do with her mother, she would tell stories or anecdotes related, especially the fountain. Though she cherished it, living six hours away, she didn’t have the opportunity to visit it regularly.
As time went on, the fountain was hidden under trees, falling into disrepair----the statue’s bowl at its base broken; cement benches nearby damaged; the water pump blocked with leaves and the surrounding area littered with dead leaves and trash, etc.
Finally, in 2013, it was once repaired by one of the school gatekeepers, who thought she was popular with colleagues and students when she was alive. After knowing the repair, Sarene and Trevor took the 300-mile trip to visit it. On a quiet afternoon, they posed for a photo together. Sarene recalled, “We sat watching the fountain for a while. The water welled over then it went into the bowls. It was so peaceful.”
Flash forward to 2015. When deciding what to give his mom for Mother’s Day, the fountain came to mind. Trevor called Sarene that Sunday to wish her a happy Mother’s Day and told her to expect a surprise. Then he drove to DeAnza with his camera, tripod, and two sponges.
When he arrived, the fountain was covered with leaves and piled with dirt, in worse shape than he had expected. Motivated by memories of his late grandmother, whom he called “Bubby”, he set up his camera on the tripod, checked the lighting and took a before shot. Then his hand-scrubbing (手工擦洗) work began.
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。
There was one problem—the fountain’s water was turned off

When she opened the photos attached in the three emails, she burst into tears.
