Once upon a time, there was a poor man and a rich man. The poor man's son was named Ham, and the rich man's son was named Jim. They had been in the same school together since childhood and became good friends.
One day, the two youths began a discussion as to whether wealth or effort was more powerful. Jim said that wealth was most important, while Ham declared for effort. At last, Ham declared, "Let us put it to the test: Let us both go to some far country and try whether wealth or effort is more successful." Jim agreed to this plan and they fixed a day for starting.
Then they both went home and collected some money and started off early one morning. After a time, they came to a certain country where Ham suggested that they should look for employment. But Jim did not like the notion of becoming a servant and he said that he would live on the money which he had brought with him, which would last for a year or two. "You may do as you like," answered Ham, "but for my part, I must look for work." So he went to a village and found employment as a teacher in a school while his friend rented a house and started making various friends, eating, drinking and having fun all day.
One year later, Ham earned enough money, built a beautiful house and also got married. However, Jim had already spent all his money, and his friends who indulged in wine and meat also left him. Hungry and sorrowful, he went to Ham and said, "My dear friend, regarding the question of ‘wealth or effort is more important', I think I've already had the answer."

Wild animals seem to have escaped the Indian Ocean tsunami, adding weight to the idea that they have a "sixth sense" for disasters, experts said on Thursday.
Sri Lanka wildlife officials have said the waves that killed over 24,000 people along the Indian Ocean island's coast seemingly missed wild beasts, with no dead animals found.
"No elephants are dead, not even a dead hare or rabbit. I think animals can sense disaster. They have a ‘sixth sense'. They know when things are happening," H.D. Ratnayake, director of Sri Lanka's Wildlife Department, said on Wednesday.
The waves washed floodwaters up to 3 km (2 miles) inland at Yala National Park in the southeast, Sri Lanka's biggest wildlife reserve and home to hundreds of wild elephants. "There has been a lot of evidence (证据) about dogs barking or birds migrating before volcanic eruptions or earthquakes. But it has not been proved." said Matthew van Lierop, an animal behaviour specialist at Johannesburg Zoo. "There have been no specific studies because you can't really test it in a lab or field setting," he said. Other authorities agreed with this conclusion.
"Wildlife seems to be able to pick up certain signs, especially birds. There are many reports of birds detecting coming disasters," said Clive Walker, who has written several books on African wildlife.
Animals certainly rely on the known senses such as smell or hearing to avoid danger such as predators (掠食动物). The idea of an animal "sixth sense" is a lasting one that the evidence on Sri Lanka's damaged coast is likely to add to.
28．What happened after the Indian Ocean tsunami
A．Many people died but wild animals survived.
B．The "six sense" of wild animals developed
C．Wild beasts were killed or went missing
D．The coast was found in good condition.
29．What does H.D. Ratnayake do
A．He is a zoo keeper.
B．He is a wildlife official.
C．He is a movie director.
D．He is an animal behaviour expert.
30．Which of the following is closest in meaning to the underlined word "detecting" in paragraph 5
A．Taking up. B．Putting up. C．Picking up. D．Bringing up.
31．What is the text mainly about
A．Animals can save themselves from human activity.
B．Animals' natural power to escape from danger.
C．How to protect wildlife when disasters happen.
D．The serious damage of the Indian Ocean tsunami.
【答案】28．A

28．考查细节理解。根据第二段"Sri Lanka wildlife officials have said the waves that killed over 24,000 people along the Indian Ocean island's coast seemingly missed wild beasts, with no dead animals found."斯里兰卡野生动物官员表示，印度洋岛屿沿岸造成2.4万多人死亡的海浪似乎与野生动物擦肩而过，没有发现死亡的动物。可知，印度洋海啸之后许多人死了，但野生动物活了下来。故选A。
29．考查细节理解。根据第三段"‘No elephants are dead, not even a dead hare or rabbit. I think animals can sense disaster. They have a ‘sixth sense'. They know when things are happening,' H.D. Ratnayake, director of Sri Lanka's Wildlife Department, said on Wednesday.""没有大象死亡，甚至没有一只野兔或兔子死亡。我认为动物能感知灾难。它们有"第六感"。它们知道什么时候有事情发生，"斯里兰卡野生动物部主任H.D. Ratnayake周三说)"可知，H.D. Ratnayake是野生动物官员。故选B。
30．考查词义猜测。根据第五段中的"Wildlife seems to be able to pick up certain signs, especially birds."可知，野生动物似乎能够捕捉到某些信号，尤其是鸟类。因此有很多关于鸟类发现即将到来的灾难的报道。可推知划线词 detecting 意思是"发现，认识"。故选C。
31．考查主旨大意。根据第一段"Wild animals seem to have escaped the Indian Ocean tsunami, adding weight to the idea that they have a ‘sixth sense' for disasters, experts said on Thursday."专家于周四表示，野生动物似乎躲过了印度洋海啸，这进一步证实了它们对灾难有"第六感"的说法。可知，本文说明了印度洋海啸之后许多人死了，但野生动物活了下来，文章还列举了其他一些动物会躲避危险的例子。可知，这篇文章的主要内容是动物逃避危险的自然力量。故选B。

A report from the UN warns that countries' current commitments would reduce carbon by only about 7.5% by 2030, far less than the 45% cut, which scientists say is needed to limit global temperature rises to 1.5℃, the aim of the COP26 summit (峰会).
Antonio Guterres, the UN secretary-general, described the findings as a "thundering wake-up call" to world leaders, while experts called for action against fossil fuel companies.
Although more than 100 countries have promised to reach net zero emissions (净零排放) around mid-century, this would not be enough to avoid climate disasters, according to the UN emissions report, which examines the shortfall (差额) between countries' intentions and actions needed on the climate. Many of the net zero commitments were found to be unclear, and unless accompanied by strict cuts in emissions this decade would allow global heating of a potentially disastrous extent.
Gutierrez said: "The heat is on, and as the contents of the report show, the leadership we need is off. Far off. Countries are wasting a massive opportunity to invest Covid-19 finance and recovery resources in sustainable, cost-saving, planet-saving ways. As world leaders prepare for COP26, that is another thundering wake-up call. How many do we need "
Inger Andersen, the director of the UN Environment Programme (UNEP) said: "Climate change is no longer a future problem. It is a now problem. To stand a chance of limiting global warming to 1.5℃, we have 8 years to almost halve greenhouse gas emissions: 8 years to make the plans, put in place the policies, carry them out and deliver the cuts. The clock is ticking loudly."
Emissions fell by about 5.4% last year during Covid lockdowns, the report found, but only about one-fifth of the economic recovery spending goes towards reducing carbon emissions. This failure to "build back better", despite promises by governments around the world, cast doubt on the world's willingness to make the economic shift necessary to settle the climate crisis, the UN said.
In the run-up (前期) to COP26, countries were supposed to submit (递交) national plans to cut emissions—called nationally determined contributions (NDCs) —for the next decade, a requirement under the 2015 Paris climate agreement. But the UNEP report found only half of countries had submitted new NDCs, and some governments had presented weak plans.
32．Why were the findings described as a "thundering wake-up call" in Para. 2
A．Because the world has failed to live up to its current commitments.
B．Because the opportunities presented by covid-19 have been wasted.
C．Because the world is falling behind in slowing down temperature rises.
D．Because the serious problems were brought about by global fossil fuels.
33．The potential disastrous harm of global warming in the coming ten years can be reduced if ____.
A．strict measures are taken to reduce emissions
B．current commitments of many countries remain unchanged
C．huge gaps are bridged between previous and present proposals
D．global sustainable environmental resources develops significantly
34．What is the writer's purpose of quoting "How many do we need " in Para.4
A．To show the number of alarm clocks required.
B．To explain the reason for the world's wasting chances.
C．To ask for the number of the countries attending the meeting.
D．To stress the need to make the most of resources and reduce emissions.
35．What can be inferred from the last paragraph
A．Few countries have submitted plans to reduce the emissions.
B．Many countries' plans to cut emissions are far from satisfactory.
C．Most of the countries work under the Paris Climate Agreement.
D．Much progress in reducing emissions his been made these years.
【答案】32．C
33．A
34．D

【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文。联合国的一份报告警告说，各国目前的承诺到2030年只能减少约7.5%的碳排放，远低于科学家所说的将全球气温上升限制在1.5℃（COP26峰会的目标）所需的45%的碳减排目标。文章介绍全球减排的重要性和所采取的措施。

32．推理判断题。根据第一段"A report from the UN warns that countries' current commitments would reduce carbon by only about 7.5% by 2030, far less than the 45% cut, which scientists say is needed to limit global temperature rises to 1.5℃, the aim of the COP26 summit.(联合国的一份报告警告说，各国目前的承诺到2030年只会减少约7.5%的碳排放，远低于科学家们所说的将全球气温上升限制在1.5℃所需的45%的减排，这也是第26届联合国气候大会的目标。)"以及第二段中"António Guterres, the UN secretary-general, described the findings as a "thundering wake-up call" to world leaders, while experts called for action against fossil fuel companies.(联合国秘书长安东尼奥·古特雷斯将调查结果描述为对世界领导人的"雷鸣般的警钟"，而专家们则呼吁对化石燃料公司采取行动。)"可知将调查结果描述为对世界领导人的"雷鸣般的警钟"是由于世界在减缓气温上升方面缺乏进展，故选C。
33． 细节理解题。根据文章第三段中"Many of the net zero commitments were found to be unclear, and unless accompanied by strict cuts in emissions this decade would allow global heating of a potentially disastrous extent. (许多净零承诺被发现不明确，除非伴随着严格减排，否则这十年将使全球变暖达到潜在的灾难性程度。)"可知，如果在未来十年内采取严格的减排措施，全球变暖的潜在危害是可以减少的。故选A。
34．推理判断题。根据第四段中"Countries are wasting a massive opportunity to invest Covid-19 finance and recovery resources in sustainable, cost-saving, planet-saving ways. As world leaders prepare for COP26, that is another thundering wake-up call. How many do we need (各国正在浪费大量机会以可持续、节省成本、保护地球的方式投资Covid-19资金和恢复资源。随着世界各国领导人为第26届联合国气候大会做准备，这是另一个雷鸣般的警钟。我们需要多少？)"可推知，作者引用"我们需要多少？"的目的是强调充分利用资源和有效减少排放的必要性。故选D。
35． 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段中"But the UNEP report found only half of countries had submitted new NDCs, and some governments had presented weak plans.(但联合国环境规划署的报告发现，只有一半的国家提交了新的国家自主贡献，一些政府提出的计划很无力。)"可推知，许多国家的减排计划远非令人满意。故选A。

【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了针灸的治疗方法以及它在现代医学中的地位。
【点评】考查语法填空，本题考点涉及冠词，时态，形容词，定语从句，副词，名词，非谓语动词，省略，借介词，代词以及固定搭配等多个知识点的考查，要求考生在理解细节信息的基础上，进一步根据上下文的逻辑关系，并结合相关语法知识，进行分析推理，从而写出正确的单词形式。
56．句意：针灸，一种古老的中国医学的惯常做法，数千年来一直是无数患者的治疗方法。 ancient Chinese medical practice为同位语，对"Acupuncture"进行补充说明，此处指"针灸，一种中医的惯常做法"，所以空处应用不定冠词表示泛指。空后为元音音素开始的单词，所以用不定冠词an。故填an。
57．句意：到目前为止，这一做法已经成为一个全面而深刻的医疗体系。此处是谓语动词。根据Up to now可知，本句话为现在完成时态，主语为this practice。故填has become。
58．句意：针灸是一种神奇的治疗方法，旨在促进身体的自我调节功能。空处需要形容词作定语修饰后面的名词。amazing意为"令人惊讶的"。该词为ing形式的形容词，主要用于说明事物，表示事物的性质或特征。故选amazing。
59．句意：它的原理符合传统中医的思想，即强调身体功能的平衡和整体健康。 emphasizes balance of bodily functions and overall well-being 是非限定性定语从句，修饰先行词the ideas。先行词指物，在定语从句中主语，所以用关系代词which引导该从句。故填which。
60．句意：针刺是通过将头发细的针插入身体上的特定的穴位来引导能量(气)。carry out固定短语，"实施，执行"。故填out。
61．句意：针刺是通过将头发细的针插入身体上的特定的穴位来引导能量(气)。point为可数名词"点，地点，重点"，此处指身体的"穴位"，为可数名词。空处需要该名词的复数形式表示泛指。故填points。
62．句意：针灸被认为是有效的，尤其是当与现代医学结合使用时。当状语从句中的主语和主句的主语一致且含有be动词时，可以省略从句的主语以及be动词。本句话原句为"Acupuncture has been considered effective, particularly when it is used alongside with modern medicine."，所以状语从句中可以省略主语it和be动词，剩下过去分词作状语。故填used。
63．句意：尽管它起源于古老的中国，但目前世界卫生组织120个成员国中的113个国家都在使用它，这表明它得到了广泛的认可。根据语境可知，尽管针灸起源于古老的中国，但是它却在世界上得到了广泛的认可。空处需要介词despite"尽管"，后面接名词或代词等。故填Despite。
64．句意：尽管它起源于古老的中国，但目前世界卫生组织120个成员国中的113个国家都在使用它，这表明它得到了广泛的认可。根据空前的its widespread可知，空处需要名词作show的宾语。recognize为动词，其名词形式为recognition"认可"。故填recognition。
65．句意：针灸作为中国古老的医学惯常做法，以其神奇的疗效享誉世界。空处需要反身代词作宾语，指代主语acupuncture 本身。故填itself。

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。
I was a single parent of four small children, working at a low-paid job. Money was always tight, but we had a roof over heads, food on the table, clothes on our backs, and if not a lot, always enough. Not knowing we were poor, my kids just thought I was serious. I had always been glad about it.
It was Christmas time, and although there wasn't money for a lot of gifts, we planned to celebrate with a family party. But the big excitement for the kids was the fun of Christmas shopping.
They planned weeks ahead of time, asking each other what they wanted for Christmas. Fortunately, I had saved $100 for presents to share by all five of us.
The big day arrived. I gave each kid a twenty-dollar bill and reminded them to look for gifts of about four dollars each. Then everyone scattered(散开). We had two hours to shop; then we would meet back at the gate.
On the way home, everyone was in high Christmas spirits, except my younger daughter Ginger who was unusually quiet. She had only one small, flat bag with a few candies. I was so angry, but I controlled myself and didn't say anything until we got home. I called her into my bedroom and closed the door, ready to be angry again. This was what she told me:
"I was looking around thinking of what to buy, and I stopped to read the little cards on the ‘Giving Trees'. One was for a little girl, four years old, and all she wanted for Christmas was a doll. So I took the card off the tree and bought the doll for her. We have so much but she doesn't have anything."
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。
I gathered all the other kids and shared with them what Ginger had done.
……
According to my proposal, we all headed for the child welfare home nearby.
【答案】I gathered all the other kids and shared with them what Ginger had done. Then followed my question，"What do you think of the thing that Ginger did "In a flash，praise and enthusiasm of helping more people in need filled the whole room. One of them advised giving away all their presents to the kids like the little girl who was helped by Ginger. But I didn't think it was enough. Maybe there were more meaningful things to do. I tried asking，"Why not spend the Christmas with the kids in the child welfare home nearby ""Good idea!" they cheered.
According to my pro postal, we all headed for the child well fare home nearby. About half an hour later，we arrived at the child welfare home. Having known our aim to visit，the dean gave us a warm welcome. Within several minutes，all of us became integrated with each other. We sang songs，played games，shared our presents and enjoyed the fantastic Christmas. I realized this was the true meaning of being rich—make others a day with what we have.
【解析】【分析】本篇书面表达是读后续写。通过阅读文章可知，作者是一个有四个孩子的单身母亲，生活并不富裕，但幸好有房子住、有饭吃、有衣穿。圣诞节来临，作者给每个孩子$20让他们买圣诞礼物，其他孩子都买了，但唯独小女儿只买了50美分的糖果，作者很生气，但听到小女儿用自己买礼物的钱给一个陌生的小女孩买了娃娃之后，母亲的内心感受从未如此富有过。续写第一段开头为：我召集了所有其他的孩子，和他们分享 Ginger 的所作所为。......后面应该写大家发表对Ginger 的所作所为的感受。
续写第二段开头为：根据我的提议，我们都前往附近的儿童福利院。......后面应该写在儿童福利院的所作所为。写作时注意准确运用时态，上下文意思连贯，符合逻辑关系，尽量使用自己熟悉的单词句式，同时也要注意使用高级词汇和高级句型使文章显得更有档次。

Once upon a time, there was a poor man and a rich man. The poor man's son was named Ham, and the rich man's son was named Jim. They had been in the same school together since childhood and became good friends.
One day, the two youths began a discussion as to whether wealth or effort was more powerful. Jim said that wealth was most important, while Ham declared for effort. At last, Ham declared, "Let us put it to the test: Let us both go to some far country and try whether wealth or effort is more successful." Jim agreed to this plan and they fixed a day for starting.
Then they both went home and collected some money and started off early one morning. After a time, they came to a certain country where Ham suggested that they should look for employment. But Jim did not like the notion of becoming a servant and he said that he would live on the money which he had brought with him, which would last for a year or two. "You may do as you like," answered Ham, "but for my part, I must look for work." So he went to a village and found employment as a teacher in a school while his friend rented a house and started making various friends, eating, drinking and having fun all day.
One year later, Ham earned enough money, built a beautiful house and also got married. However, Jim had already spent all his money, and his friends who indulged in wine and meat also left him. Hungry and sorrowful, he went to Ham and said, "My dear friend, regarding the question of ‘wealth or effort is more important', I think I've already had the answer."

Wild animals seem to have escaped the Indian Ocean tsunami, adding weight to the idea that they have a "sixth sense" for disasters, experts said on Thursday.
Sri Lanka wildlife officials have said the waves that killed over 24,000 people along the Indian Ocean island's coast seemingly missed wild beasts, with no dead animals found.
"No elephants are dead, not even a dead hare or rabbit. I think animals can sense disaster. They have a ‘sixth sense'. They know when things are happening," H.D. Ratnayake, director of Sri Lanka's Wildlife Department, said on Wednesday.
The waves washed floodwaters up to 3 km (2 miles) inland at Yala National Park in the southeast, Sri Lanka's biggest wildlife reserve and home to hundreds of wild elephants. "There has been a lot of evidence (证据) about dogs barking or birds migrating before volcanic eruptions or earthquakes. But it has not been proved." said Matthew van Lierop, an animal behaviour specialist at Johannesburg Zoo. "There have been no specific studies because you can't really test it in a lab or field setting," he said. Other authorities agreed with this conclusion.
"Wildlife seems to be able to pick up certain signs, especially birds. There are many reports of birds detecting coming disasters," said Clive Walker, who has written several books on African wildlife.
Animals certainly rely on the known senses such as smell or hearing to avoid danger such as predators (掠食动物). The idea of an animal "sixth sense" is a lasting one that the evidence on Sri Lanka's damaged coast is likely to add to.
28．What happened after the Indian Ocean tsunami
A．Many people died but wild animals survived.
B．The "six sense" of wild animals developed
C．Wild beasts were killed or went missing
D．The coast was found in good condition.
29．What does H.D. Ratnayake do
A．He is a zoo keeper.
B．He is a wildlife official.
C．He is a movie director.
D．He is an animal behaviour expert.
30．Which of the following is closest in meaning to the underlined word "detecting" in paragraph 5
A．Taking up. B．Putting up. C．Picking up. D．Bringing up.
31．What is the text mainly about
A．Animals can save themselves from human activity.
B．Animals' natural power to escape from danger.
C．How to protect wildlife when disasters happen.
D．The serious damage of the Indian Ocean tsunami.

A report from the UN warns that countries' current commitments would reduce carbon by only about 7.5% by 2030, far less than the 45% cut, which scientists say is needed to limit global temperature rises to 1.5℃, the aim of the COP26 summit (峰会).
Antonio Guterres, the UN secretary-general, described the findings as a "thundering wake-up call" to world leaders, while experts called for action against fossil fuel companies.
Although more than 100 countries have promised to reach net zero emissions (净零排放) around mid-century, this would not be enough to avoid climate disasters, according to the UN emissions report, which examines the shortfall (差额) between countries' intentions and actions needed on the climate. Many of the net zero commitments were found to be unclear, and unless accompanied by strict cuts in emissions this decade would allow global heating of a potentially disastrous extent.
Gutierrez said: "The heat is on, and as the contents of the report show, the leadership we need is off. Far off. Countries are wasting a massive opportunity to invest Covid-19 finance and recovery resources in sustainable, cost-saving, planet-saving ways. As world leaders prepare for COP26, that is another thundering wake-up call. How many do we need "
Inger Andersen, the director of the UN Environment Programme (UNEP) said: "Climate change is no longer a future problem. It is a now problem. To stand a chance of limiting global warming to 1.5℃, we have 8 years to almost halve greenhouse gas emissions: 8 years to make the plans, put in place the policies, carry them out and deliver the cuts. The clock is ticking loudly."
Emissions fell by about 5.4% last year during Covid lockdowns, the report found, but only about one-fifth of the economic recovery spending goes towards reducing carbon emissions. This failure to "build back better", despite promises by governments around the world, cast doubt on the world's willingness to make the economic shift necessary to settle the climate crisis, the UN said.
In the run-up (前期) to COP26, countries were supposed to submit (递交) national plans to cut emissions—called nationally determined contributions (NDCs) —for the next decade, a requirement under the 2015 Paris climate agreement. But the UNEP report found only half of countries had submitted new NDCs, and some governments had presented weak plans.
32．Why were the findings described as a "thundering wake-up call" in Para. 2
A．Because the world has failed to live up to its current commitments.
B．Because the opportunities presented by covid-19 have been wasted.
C．Because the world is falling behind in slowing down temperature rises.
D．Because the serious problems were brought about by global fossil fuels.
33．The potential disastrous harm of global warming in the coming ten years can be reduced if ____.
A．strict measures are taken to reduce emissions
B．current commitments of many countries remain unchanged
C．huge gaps are bridged between previous and present proposals
D．global sustainable environmental resources develops significantly
34．What is the writer's purpose of quoting "How many do we need " in Para.4
A．To show the number of alarm clocks required.
B．To explain the reason for the world's wasting chances.
C．To ask for the number of the countries attending the meeting.
D．To stress the need to make the most of resources and reduce emissions.
35．What can be inferred from the last paragraph
A．Few countries have submitted plans to reduce the emissions.
B．Many countries' plans to cut emissions are far from satisfactory.
C．Most of the countries work under the Paris Climate Agreement.
D．Much progress in reducing emissions his been made these years.

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。
I was a single parent of four small children, working at a low-paid job. Money was always tight, but we had a roof over heads, food on the table, clothes on our backs, and if not a lot, always enough. Not knowing we were poor, my kids just thought I was serious. I had always been glad about it.
It was Christmas time, and although there wasn't money for a lot of gifts, we planned to celebrate with a family party. But the big excitement for the kids was the fun of Christmas shopping.
They planned weeks ahead of time, asking each other what they wanted for Christmas. Fortunately, I had saved $100 for presents to share by all five of us.
The big day arrived. I gave each kid a twenty-dollar bill and reminded them to look for gifts of about four dollars each. Then everyone scattered(散开). We had two hours to shop; then we would meet back at the gate.
On the way home, everyone was in high Christmas spirits, except my younger daughter Ginger who was unusually quiet. She had only one small, flat bag with a few candies. I was so angry, but I controlled myself and didn't say anything until we got home. I called her into my bedroom and closed the door, ready to be angry again. This was what she told me:
"I was looking around thinking of what to buy, and I stopped to read the little cards on the ‘Giving Trees'. One was for a little girl, four years old, and all she wanted for Christmas was a doll. So I took the card off the tree and bought the doll for her. We have so much but she doesn't have anything."
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。
I gathered all the other kids and shared with them what Ginger had done.
……
According to my proposal, we all headed for the child welfare home nearby.
