Early on, Sandra Marshall showed a talent and love for art. A New York native, Sandra owes her passion for art, and her thirst for learning, to childhood trips into New York City to visit the museums, and galleries.
After Sandra received a Bachelor of Arts degree from Arizona State University, she worked as a portrait painter and mural (壁画) artist but turned to food art when her daughter declared she would no longer eat meat. Sandra started exploring with fruits and vegetables to make cooking more fun, and was inspired by the colors of nature. She would write stories about her dinnertime art pieces so her children would see the magic in produce.
In 2014, Sandra opened a studio called Be...An Artist Studio, which welcomed artists to come and learn many different types of art. Paint nights, sculpting nights, live entertainment and eventually a cooking school, all came together and helped to bring the community creating together. She was featured on many television networks displaying her passions for the arts. Sandra began posting her creations on social media which led to her first published book One Hot Night at the Veggie Bar.
In 2019, Sandra closed her studio to expand and bring art to more people. This also gave her more time to create and explore he town art, including her food art. Sandra hosted painting events, painting with thousands of people at her large Be...An Artist events, such as the National Football League’s owners meeting in 2019 where she painted with the NFL owners and their families.
Sandra is now working with schools, bringing the joy of creating to children and their families with her “Success For All” painting programs that n re supported by the sales of her food art books and grants given to the schools. Last year alone, she painted with thousands of children and their families over Zoom.
24．For what reason did Sandra change her art theme
A．She got bored with mural art.
B．She was attracted by the colors of nature.
C．She wanted to introduce her daughter to art.
D．She hoped to make cooking more appealing.
25．What is mainly talked about in paragraph 3
A．Sandra’s influence. B．Sandra’s art styles.
C．Sandra’s achievements. D．Sandra’s future plan.
26．What did Sandra do to promote art
A．She wrote books on art. B．She held large painting events.
C．She opened her own studio. D．She began to try different types of art.
27．What could be the best title of the text
A．The Story behind Food Art
B．The Rise of Be...An Artist Studio

Biology may not be everything, but genes apparently have a far greater influence on human behavior than is commonly thought. Similarities ranging from hobbies to bodily gesture are being found in pairs separated at birth. Many of these behaviors are “things you would never think of looking at if you were going to study the genetics of behavior,” says psychologist Thomas J. Bouchard, Jr. , director of the Minnesota Center for Twin and Adoption Research at the University of Minnesota.
Bouchard reports that so far, exhaustive psychological tests and questionnaires have been completed with approximately 50 pairs of identical twins reared apart, 25 pairs of fraternal twins reared apart and comparison groups of twins reared together. “We were amazed at the similarity in posture and expressive style,” says Bouchard. “It’s probably the feature of the study that’s grabbed us the most.” Twins tend to have similar mannerisms, gestures, speed and tempo in talking, habits and jokes. Many of the twins dressed in similar fashion--one male pair who had never previously met arrived in England sporting identical beards, haircuts, glasses and shirts.
The most striking example of common psychopathology (精神病理学) however, came from a pair of twins raised apart. One had been reared by his own (poor) family the other had been adopted into a “good solid upper-middle-class family.” Both are now considered to be antisocial personalities, suffering from lack of impulse control, and both have criminal histories. Although the twins share, on average, 50 percent of their genes, Bouchard suggests that the overlap is probably considerably more with this pair.
Personality similarities between the identical twins raised apart are almost the same as they are with identical twins raised together, according to the results of a test developed by University of Minnesota psychologist Auke Tellegen. His personality questionnaire contains scales such as “social closeness,” “harm avoidance” and “well-being.” The researchers were especially surprised to find that “traditionalism” --a trait implying conservatism and respect for authority--can be inherited. In fact, says Bouchard, his and other studies have found about 11 personality traits that appear to have significant genetic input.
Overall, the emerging findings of the Minnesota study constitute a powerful disproof of those who maintain that environmental influences are the primary shaping forces of personality. The textbooks are going to have to be rewritten, Bouchard predicts.
28．Why does Bouchard say these behaviors are “things you would never think of looking at if you were going to study the genetics of behavior ”
A．These behaviors seemed too unimportant for scientists to observe.
B．These behaviors seemed too intimate to allow scientists to observe them.
C．Psychologists assumed these external characteristics could not be biologically based.
D．Psychologists assumed the causes of these behaviors were too complicated for current methods of observations.
29．The word “identical” (in para.2) most probably means________.
A．fashionable B．alike C．complex D．identified
30．According to the passage, Auke Tellegen agrees that________.
A．some textbooks on genes and behavior will be rewritten quite soon.
B．people’s behaviors and personalities depend at large on their genes
C．his personality questionnaire can indicate people’s 11 personality traits
D．the environmental influences have great effect on people’s personalities
31．What does the passage mainly talk about
A．Twins generally share the same hobbies and gestures if they are raised apart.
B．Genes have a greater influence on human behavior than is commonly thought.
C．People from upper-middle-class family are the same as those from poor family.
D．Twins tend to dress in similar fashion even when brought up in different families.

Small batteries are big problems, but nobody really pays attention to where they end up. Researchers at the Cellulose & Wood Materials Laboratory are working to address this problem. Their new research paper describes a water-activated paper battery developed from environmentally friendly materials that could eventually present a sustainable alternative to the more harmful batteries common in low-power devices.
The paper battery has the same key components as standard batteries but packages them differently. Like a typical chemical battery, it has a positively charged side called a cathode, a negatively charged side called an anode, and a conductive material called an electrolyte (电解质) between the two. A traditional battery’s components are encased in plastic and metal; in the new battery, the anode and cathode are inks printed onto the front and back of a piece of paper. That paper is filled with salt, which dissolves (溶解) when the paper is dampened with water. The resulting saltwater solution acts as the electrolyte.
Sustainable materials were a precondition for the researchers, who considered only safe and plentiful ingredients to create their device. “We were fairly confident that we would have something that would work in the end, but developing these materials and ink systems is challenging,” says Gustav Nystr m, senior author of the study.
After trying hundreds of formulations for the battery components, the researchers settled on a graphite ink to make the cathode, a zinc ink for the anode, and salt-filled paper to create the electrolyte.
When the paper is dry, the battery is shelf-stable. Add just a couple of drops of water, however, and the salt dissolves, allowing electrons to flow. Once the paper is dampened, the battery activates within 20 seconds. The new battery’s operating performance declines as the paper dries. When the scientists re-wet the paper during testing, the battery regained functionality and lasted an hour before beginning to dry out again.
Although the researchers demonstrated that their battery could power an alarm clock, the paper batteries are unlikely to replace standard ones on store shelves. Nystr m envisions a future where these paper batteries could make their way into products within the next two to five years. “The performance that you see on this device, I think, is sufficient for a lot of other applications already,” he says. It is mostly a matter of scaling up production and integrating the batteries into systems such as diagnostic tests and environmental sensors.”
32．How is the paper battery similar to the standard battery
A．They both have two charged sides and an electrolyte.
B．They are both packaged in plastic and metal.
C．The key components are environmentally friendly.
D．Both batteries can operate for only an hour.
33．________ is the condition for the paper battery to work.
A．Heating the salt B．Wetting the paper
C．Drying out the battery D．Charging the electrons
34．Nystr m will most likely agree with the prediction that ________.
A．major technological breakthrough will be made in the near future
B．all home appliances will be powered by paper batteries
C．paper batteries will have longer shelf life than traditional ones
D．the future for a wide application of paper batteries is not far off
35．Which of the following statements best describes the significance of paper battery
A．It advances the battery manufacturing industry.
B．It is a low-cost alternative to traditional battery.
C．It is a creative way to reduce potential e-waste.
D．It turns dangerous e-waste into useful products.

Tomato Changed My Life
Doing things-without being planned was never my strength.
As a 14-year-old, I would refuse to go for walks around the block with my friends if I was the least bit behind in my schoolwork.
Unlike most teenagers, I lived not in my room, but in an unused kitchen upstairs where I spread my books and papers on a large round table. I spent considerable time there, working continuously for hours, and my mother worried. She would try to lure (引诱) me away. “Come and watch the parade!” she would call from downstairs. “All neighbors are out there!” She thought of all kinds of tricks-the swimming pool, ice cream, stray cats and turtles-to remove me from my -studies, but nothing ever worked.
Later, in college, the pattern continued. The library and my college dorm replaced the unused kitchen at home. When spring came along friends would stop by my dorm or peer into my library room to persuade me to play Frisbee on the lawn. “No, I would almost always say.” I have too much to do.
My college study days were gone, but not my need and love for schedules. My friends and sisters tried to keep me away from my plans, but they were hardly ever successful.
This summer, though, while house sitting for my parents, I was persuaded to change my plans in the most unexpected way. The sight of tomatoes growing in my mother’s garden lured me out of my tightly scheduled world. They drew me with the power of a lover’s gaze. Hundreds of them were turning ripe and red by the minute, decorating the garden like decorations on a Christmas tree.
“If I have time, I’ll make tomato sauce (番茄酱).” I told myself. But my long week in the house by myself was already filled with things to do: writing, and finishing a project that I brought home from the office.
Then, watching the fascinating tomatoes continuously falling to the ground in ever-greater numbers, again I mentally argued about all the things I had planned and needed to do.
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。
Finally, I gave in.

【原文】M: Welcome to today’s program. We have Lisa Gaye with us. Good morning, Lisa.
W: Morning, everyone!
M: Your Food Exchange really takes our town by storm these days, Lisa. About 1,000 people in town have joined it. Where did you get this brilliant idea
W: Well, my neighbor has plenty of vegetables in her backyard. She often shares them with me, or they may go bad. So, I came up with the idea of starting a food exchange. In this way, people can share food with each other. No food will go to waste.
M: Nice one! We’ve heard that the Food Exchange was built by the roadside, right
W: Yeah. Actually, it’s just a simple wooden stand. People bring their home-grown vegetables and fruits there and take home what they want. And they’re expected to post a video or some photos on their social media. Thus, others know what has been added or taken.
M: What about those people who don’t grow anything
W: Ha-ha, I’m one of those people. I usually take some fresh fruit, jam or dried vegetables there.

Early on, Sandra Marshall showed a talent and love for art. A New York native, Sandra owes her passion for art, and her thirst for learning, to childhood trips into New York City to visit the museums, and galleries.
After Sandra received a Bachelor of Arts degree from Arizona State University, she worked as a portrait painter and mural (壁画) artist but turned to food art when her daughter declared she would no longer eat meat. Sandra started exploring with fruits and vegetables to make cooking more fun, and was inspired by the colors of nature. She would write stories about her dinnertime art pieces so her children would see the magic in produce.
In 2014, Sandra opened a studio called Be...An Artist Studio, which welcomed artists to come and learn many different types of art. Paint nights, sculpting nights, live entertainment and eventually a cooking school, all came together and helped to bring the community creating together. She was featured on many television networks displaying her passions for the arts. Sandra began posting her creations on social media which led to her first published book One Hot Night at the Veggie Bar.
In 2019, Sandra closed her studio to expand and bring art to more people. This also gave her more time to create and explore he town art, including her food art. Sandra hosted painting events, painting with thousands of people at her large Be...An Artist events, such as the National Football League’s owners meeting in 2019 where she painted with the NFL owners and their families.
Sandra is now working with schools, bringing the joy of creating to children and their families with her “Success For All” painting programs that n re supported by the sales of her food art books and grants given to the schools. Last year alone, she painted with thousands of children and their families over Zoom.

Biology may not be everything, but genes apparently have a far greater influence on human behavior than is commonly thought. Similarities ranging from hobbies to bodily gesture are being found in pairs separated at birth. Many of these behaviors are “things you would never think of looking at if you were going to study the genetics of behavior,” says psychologist Thomas J. Bouchard, Jr. , director of the Minnesota Center for Twin and Adoption Research at the University of Minnesota.
Bouchard reports that so far, exhaustive psychological tests and questionnaires have been completed with approximately 50 pairs of identical twins reared apart, 25 pairs of fraternal twins reared apart and comparison groups of twins reared together. “We were amazed at the similarity in posture and expressive style,” says Bouchard. “It’s probably the feature of the study that’s grabbed us the most.” Twins tend to have similar mannerisms, gestures, speed and tempo in talking, habits and jokes. Many of the twins dressed in similar fashion--one male pair who had never previously met arrived in England sporting identical beards, haircuts, glasses and shirts.
The most striking example of common psychopathology (精神病理学) however, came from a pair of twins raised apart. One had been reared by his own (poor) family the other had been adopted into a “good solid upper-middle-class family.” Both are now considered to be antisocial personalities, suffering from lack of impulse control, and both have criminal histories. Although the twins share, on average, 50 percent of their genes, Bouchard suggests that the overlap is probably considerably more with this pair.
Personality similarities between the identical twins raised apart are almost the same as they are with identical twins raised together, according to the results of a test developed by University of Minnesota psychologist Auke Tellegen. His personality questionnaire contains scales such as “social closeness,” “harm avoidance” and “well-being.” The researchers were especially surprised to find that “traditionalism” --a trait implying conservatism and respect for authority--can be inherited. In fact, says Bouchard, his and other studies have found about 11 personality traits that appear to have significant genetic input.
Overall, the emerging findings of the Minnesota study constitute a powerful disproof of those who maintain that environmental influences are the primary shaping forces of personality. The textbooks are going to have to be rewritten, Bouchard predicts.
28．Why does Bouchard say these behaviors are “things you would never think of looking at if you were going to study the genetics of behavior ”
A．These behaviors seemed too unimportant for scientists to observe.
B．These behaviors seemed too intimate to allow scientists to observe them.
C．Psychologists assumed these external characteristics could not be biologically based.
D．Psychologists assumed the causes of these behaviors were too complicated for current methods of observations.
29．The word “identical” (in para.2) most probably means________.
A．fashionable B．alike C．complex D．identified
30．According to the passage, Auke Tellegen agrees that________.
A．some textbooks on genes and behavior will be rewritten quite soon.
B．people’s behaviors and personalities depend at large on their genes
C．his personality questionnaire can indicate people’s 11 personality traits
D．the environmental influences have great effect on people’s personalities
31．What does the passage mainly talk about
A．Twins generally share the same hobbies and gestures if they are raised apart.
B．Genes have a greater influence on human behavior than is commonly thought.
C．People from upper-middle-class family are the same as those from poor family.
D．Twins tend to dress in similar fashion even when brought up in different families.
【答案】28．C 29．B 30．B 31．B
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了生物学领域中关于基因对人类行为影响的研究，特别关注于同卵双胞胎在分开抚养的情况下所展现出的相似性。文中提到了多项研究和测试结果，包括心理学家对双胞胎行为特征的观察和分析，以及基因在塑造性格特质中所起的作用。
28．推理判断题。根据文章第一段“Biology may not be everything, but genes apparently have a far greater influence on human behavior than is commonly thought.(生物学可能不是万能的，但基因对人类行为的影响显然比人们通常认为的要大得多)”以及Bouchard所说的话可推测，在过去的研究或认知中，这些行为特征（如爱好、身体姿势等）并没有被认为与生物学或基因有直接关系。因此，心理学家可能认为这些外在特征不是基于生物学的，所以未将它们纳入行为遗传学的研究范围。故选C。
29．词句猜测题。根据划线单词上文“Many of the twins dressed in similar fashion(许多双胞胎的穿着都很相似)”可知，许多双胞胎的穿着都很相似；由此推知，划线单词所在句指的是这对从未谋面的男性所留的胡子、发型、所戴眼镜等都很“相似”。选项A“fashionable (时尚的)”；选项B“alike(相似的)”；选项C“complex (复杂的)”；选项D“identified (经鉴定的)”。故选B。
30．推理判断题。根据文章第四段“Personality similarities between the identical twins raised apart are almost the same as they are with identical twins raised together, according to the results of a test developed by University of Minnesota psychologist Auke Tellegen. His personality questionnaire contains scales such as “social closeness,” “harm avoidance” and “well-being.”(根据明尼苏达大学心理学家Auke Tellegen进行的一项测试的结果，分开抚养的同卵双胞胎与一起抚养的同卵双胞胎的性格相似度几乎相同。他的人格问卷包括“社会亲密度”、“避免伤害”和“幸福感”等量表)”可知，Auke Tellegen认为人们的行为和个性很大程度上取决于他们的基因。故选B。
31．主旨大意题。根据文章第一段“Biology may not be everything, but genes apparently have a far greater influence on human behavior than is commonly thought.(生物学可能不是万能的，但基因对人类行为的影响显然比人们通常认为的要大得多。)”以及全文内容可知，这篇文章主要讨论了基因对人类行为的影响，特别是通过双胞胎研究来揭示基因在塑造个体行为中的角色。文章开头就明确指出“基因显然对人类行为的影响远比通常认为的要大”，并通过多个例子和研究结果来支持这一观点。因此，整篇文章的核心内容是关于基因对人类行为的重要影响。故选B。
D
Small batteries are big problems, but nobody really pays attention to where they end up. Researchers at the Cellulose & Wood Materials Laboratory are working to address this problem. Their new research paper describes a water-activated paper battery developed from environmentally friendly materials that could eventually present a sustainable alternative to the more harmful batteries common in low-power devices.
The paper battery has the same key components as standard batteries but packages them differently. Like a typical chemical battery, it has a positively charged side called a cathode, a negatively charged side called an anode, and a conductive material called an electrolyte (电解质) between the two. A traditional battery’s components are encased in plastic and metal; in the new battery, the anode and cathode are inks printed onto the front and back of a piece of paper. That paper is filled with salt, which dissolves (溶解) when the paper is dampened with water. The resulting saltwater solution acts as the electrolyte.
Sustainable materials were a precondition for the researchers, who considered only safe and plentiful ingredients to create their device. “We were fairly confident that we would have something that would work in the end, but developing these materials and ink systems is challenging,” says Gustav Nystr m, senior author of the study.
After trying hundreds of formulations for the battery components, the researchers settled on a graphite ink to make the cathode, a zinc ink for the anode, and salt-filled paper to create the electrolyte.
When the paper is dry, the battery is shelf-stable. Add just a couple of drops of water, however, and the salt dissolves, allowing electrons to flow. Once the paper is dampened, the battery activates within 20 seconds. The new battery’s operating performance declines as the paper dries. When the scientists re-wet the paper during testing, the battery regained functionality and lasted an hour before beginning to dry out again.
Although the researchers demonstrated that their battery could power an alarm clock, the paper batteries are unlikely to replace standard ones on store shelves. Nystr m envisions a future where these paper batteries could make their way into products within the next two to five years. “The performance that you see on this device, I think, is sufficient for a lot of other applications already,” he says. It is mostly a matter of scaling up production and integrating the batteries into systems such as diagnostic tests and environmental sensors.”
32．How is the paper battery similar to the standard battery
A．They both have two charged sides and an electrolyte.
B．They are both packaged in plastic and metal.
C．The key components are environmentally friendly.
D．Both batteries can operate for only an hour.
33．________ is the condition for the paper battery to work.
A．Heating the salt B．Wetting the paper
C．Drying out the battery D．Charging the electrons
34．Nystr m will most likely agree with the prediction that ________.
A．major technological breakthrough will be made in the near future
B．all home appliances will be powered by paper batteries
C．paper batteries will have longer shelf life than traditional ones
D．the future for a wide application of paper batteries is not far off
35．Which of the following statements best describes the significance of paper battery
A．It advances the battery manufacturing industry.
B．It is a low-cost alternative to traditional battery.
C．It is a creative way to reduce potential e-waste.
D．It turns dangerous e-waste into useful products.
【答案】32．A 33．B 34．D 35．C
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了这种有环保材料开发的水活化纸电池比标准电池对环境保护的益处以及工作原理。
32．细节理解题。根据第二段中“The paper battery has the same key components as standard batteries but packages them differently. Like a typical chemical battery, it has a positively charged side called a cathode, a negatively charged side called an anode, and a conductive material called an electrolyte (电解质) between the two. (纸电池的关键部件与标准电池相同，但包装不同。与典型的化学电池一样，它有一个带正电的一侧称为阴极，带负电的一侧也称为阳极，两者之间有一种称为电解质的导电材料)”可知，纸电池与标准电池相似之处是都有两个带电面，阳极和阴极，以及一个称为电解质的导电材料。故选A。
33．细节理解题。根据第二段中“A traditional battery’s components are encased in plastic and metal; in the new battery, the anode and cathode are inks printed onto the front and back of a piece of paper. That paper is filled with salt, which dissolves (溶解) when the paper is dampened with water. The resulting saltwater solution acts as the electrolyte.(传统电池的组件是用塑料和金属包裹的，而新型电池的阳极和阴极是印在一张纸的正反面上的墨水。这张纸里装满了盐，当纸被水浸湿时，盐就会溶解。由此产生的盐水溶液充当电解质)”可知，纸电池工作的条件是要把纸弄湿，盐才会溶解，盐水溶液才能充当电解质。故选B。
34．推理判断题。根据第三段中的““We were fairly confident that we would have something that would work in the end, but developing these materials and ink systems is challenging,” says Gustav Nystr m, senior author of the study.(该研究的高级作者Gustav Nystr m说：“我们非常有信心，我们最终会有一些有效的东西，但开发这些材料和油墨系统是一项挑战。”)”以及最后一段的“Nystr m envisions a future where these paper batteries could make their way into products within the next two to five years. “The performance that you see on this device, I think, is sufficient for a lot of other applications already,” he says.(Nystr m展望了未来，这些纸电池可以在未来两到五年内变成产品。他说：“我认为，你在这款设备上看到的性能已经足够用于许多其他应用程序了。”)”可推知，Nystr m将很可能同意的预测是，纸电池广泛应用的未来并不遥远。故选D。
35．推理判断题。根据第一段“Small batteries are big problems, but nobody really pays attention to where they end up. Researchers at the Cellulose & Wood Materials Laboratory are working to address this problem. Their new research paper describes a water-activated paper battery developed from environmentally friendly materials that could eventually present a sustainable alternative to the more harmful batteries common in low-power devices.(小电池是个大问题，但没有人真正关注它们的去向。纤维素和木材材料实验室的研究人员正在努力解决这个问题。他们的新研究论文描述了一种由环保材料开发的水活化纸电池，该电池最终可能成为低功率设备中常见的更有害电池的可持续替代品)”可知，文章主要介绍了这种由环保材料开发的水活化纸电池相比标准电池的对环境保护的益处及工作原理。所以，C选项“这是减少潜在电子垃圾的一种创造性方法”最能描述纸电池的重要性。故选C。

第二节 （共10小题；每小题1.5分，满分15分）
阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。
Lǎozìhào refers to the old and famous shops, which have always been reliable and trustworthy and still enjoy 56 irreplaceable position in people’s minds since long time. Not only do they represent high quality and good reputation, they have also become an indispensable part in 57 (people) daily life.
These famous and time-honored shops, eg, Quanjude and Tongrentang, 58 (locate) in Qianmen, the center of Beijing, all have represented the highly developed 59 (commerce) culture of old Beijing.
But these shops are more about businesses; they are also a historical and cultural phenomenon. He 60 has never tasted a roast duck will regret his whole life--such common sayings have made Quanjude a 61 (represent) of Beijing. Many other similar two-part allegorical sayings among the folks have also 62 (vivid) revealed the very characteristics of these old shops.
Nowadays, with the rapid development of economy and fierce competition in modern society, some Lǎozìhào shops have been keeping pace 63 the times and carrying forward their brands through continuous reforms and innovations. That’s why they 64 (stand) the test of time and survived in competition, while some others have faded into the history due to their inability 65 (adapt) to the rapid changes in modern social life.
【答案】
56．an 57．people’s 58．located 59．commercial 60．who 61．representative 62．vividly 63．with 64．have stood 65．to adapt
【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．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．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．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．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．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．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．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．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．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．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。

Thank you.
【答案】Dear students,
Today, I am glad to share my opinion on the topic—“Love Myself”.
For me, loving oneself is-the foundation of mental health. By embracing our strengths, uniqueness and even our weaknesses, we will build confidence and resilience. To illustrate, I’d like to offer an example which is from my own life. There was a time when I struggled with math and failed many times. Instead of beating myself up, I learned to seek help and dedicate time to practice while relaxing myself through leisure activities. Consequently, my grades improved, my self-confidence grew and I came to appreciate my efforts.
So, I urge everyone to begin the journey of self-love. Acknowledge your accomplishments, forgive your mistakes, and be kind to yourselves.
Thank you.

Tomato Changed My Life
Doing things-without being planned was never my strength.
As a 14-year-old, I would refuse to go for walks around the block with my friends if I was the least bit behind in my schoolwork.
Unlike most teenagers, I lived not in my room, but in an unused kitchen upstairs where I spread my books and papers on a large round table. I spent considerable time there, working continuously for hours, and my mother worried. She would try to lure (引诱) me away. “Come and watch the parade!” she would call from downstairs. “All neighbors are out there!” She thought of all kinds of tricks-the swimming pool, ice cream, stray cats and turtles-to remove me from my -studies, but nothing ever worked.
Later, in college, the pattern continued. The library and my college dorm replaced the unused kitchen at home. When spring came along friends would stop by my dorm or peer into my library room to persuade me to play Frisbee on the lawn. “No, I would almost always say.” I have too much to do.
My college study days were gone, but not my need and love for schedules. My friends and sisters tried to keep me away from my plans, but they were hardly ever successful.
This summer, though, while house sitting for my parents, I was persuaded to change my plans in the most unexpected way. The sight of tomatoes growing in my mother’s garden lured me out of my tightly scheduled world. They drew me with the power of a lover’s gaze. Hundreds of them were turning ripe and red by the minute, decorating the garden like decorations on a Christmas tree.
“If I have time, I’ll make tomato sauce (番茄酱).” I told myself. But my long week in the house by myself was already filled with things to do: writing, and finishing a project that I brought home from the office.
Then, watching the fascinating tomatoes continuously falling to the ground in ever-greater numbers, again I mentally argued about all the things I had planned and needed to do.

Finally, I gave in.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
A month later, my parents came back.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】Finally, I gave in. I picked up the recipe that I had copied down from a friend. “Prepare a little bit of water with garlic and onions. Add…,” it read. I scarched for 20 minutes in the kitchen cabinet and pulled out a huge white china pot. I washed the tomatoes, cutting away sections that were spoiled, and sliced and threw them into the pot. I swayed the watery mixture as if I were washing gold. Meanwhile, turning on the stereo, I sang along with Billy Joel and reviewed a step I’d picked up in my swing-dance class.
A month later, my parents came back. They found a daughter who had discovered the beauty of flexibility. I shared stories of my tomato adventures, and we laughed together. My mom, the same woman who used to try and lure me away from my books, now shared in my newfound passion for the kitchen. As I stood in the kitchen, surrounded by the rich flavour of tomato sauce, I realized the importance of allowing life to surprise us. Those tomatoes had taught me a valuable lesson: balance in life is not just about sticking to schedules and plans; it’s also about embracing the unexpected, reminding me that there’s a world of joy beyond the limitations of a strict schedule.
