阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
A
Best Trucks for 2022 and 2023
2022 Rivian R1T
The 2022 Rivian R1T charges onto the market as the first mainstream electric pickup, and it makes a strong impression.The R1T is equal parts workhorse and adventure vehicle, though its electrified(通电的) powertrain needs to be further enhanced.Still, it’s the first of many electric pickups to come.
2022 Ford F-150 Lightning
The electrification of America’s best-selling pickup truck is a tall order, but it’s a job that the Ford F-150 Lightning has pulled off wonderfully.The Lightning is powerful, efficient and capable.Apart from range limitations when towing(拖车), the F-150 Lightning is every bit the workhorse that full-size pickup truck buyers have come to expect.
2022 Jeep Gladiator
The 2022 Jeep Gladiator is an honest-to-goodness pick truck.It’s skilled at towing and pulling, it’s exceptionally capable off road, and its inner part is roomy and built to last.The trade-off is that the Gladiator isn’t as comfortable, quiet or well-equipped as others.
2023 GMC Hummer EV Pickup
The all-new 2023 GMC Hummer EV is designed to offer truck buyers a chance to replace their gas-powered pickups with battery-powered ones, and it’s a role that the Hummer EV should perform convincingly.It rides, handles, and speeds up better than just about any traditional full-size pickup on the market.However, that capability doesn’t come cheap, but overall, the new Hummer gets a lot of public attention in the small but growing electric truck market.
21.Which of the following may perform best in the wild
A.2022 Rivian R1T.
B.2022 Ford F-150 Lightning.
C.2022 Jeep Gladiator.
D.2023 GMC Hummer EV Pickup.
22.What might the Hummer EV impress buyers most
A.Its power system.
B.Its traditional role.
C.Its future market.
D.Its driving experience.
23.What do the four kinds of trucks have in common
A.They are expensive.
B.They are electric pickups.
C.They have large inner space.
D.They have disadvantages.
B
As a junior economics reporter, I was once given an assignment which made me panic.I was asked to write a story about an economic concept I didn’t really understand.No one else from my team was around.Searching online left me more confused.Just then, Martin Wolf, the chief economics commentator(评论员) in my company, walked past my desk.I took a deep breath and asked him.He explained it well in a few sentences and my problem was unexpectedly solved.
Ever since then, I have been a big believer in asking “stupid” questions, by which I mean questions that you fear make you look stupid.But I’m worried this is a dying art.Professor Arvind Narayanan once told me that his students were always worrying their questions might be silly, which made the vast majority of his students tend to keep silent in lectures no matter how he encouraged them, even when they were still filled with confusion.
Fear of asking “stupid” questions can lead you to pretend you know more than you do, which also makes you more likely to believe whatever others say.One study published in 2021 asked participants to rank their knowledge of a set of terms on a five-point scale from “never heard of it” to “know it well, understand the concept”.Some of the terms were real; others were fake(伪造的).The study found that people who were more willing to pretend they know something well were more likely to fall for nonsense of others.
I know not everyone is lucky enough to have a Martin Wolf wandering past their desk.But trust me, a journalist who asks questions for a living: most people really don’t mind being asked something “stupid”.If they do, it is probably because they don’t really understand it themselves, or they have something to hide.In that sense, you learn something useful either way.
24.Why does the author mention her encounter with Martin
A.To describe a journalist’s work pressure.
B.To show the benefits of asking questions.
C.To present the best way to solve problems.
D.To introduce an economics reporter’s routine.
25.What does the author mean by saying “this is a dying art”?
A.Fewer people tend to raise questions.
B.Few valuable questions are put forward.
C.People don’t know how to ask questions properly.
D.People don’t feel ashamed of asking silly questions.
26.What does the 2021 study suggest
A.People usually pretend to be knowledgeable.
B.Fake and real concepts are hard to distinguish.
C.People shouldn’t believe others’ words too quickly.
D.Fear of asking questions leads to bad consequences.
27.Which section of a website is this text most likely from
A.Technology. B.Opinion.
C.Friendship. D.Culture.
C
A group of scientists are hurrying to document ancient ruins on the US territory of Puerto Rico.The scientists are working as fast as they can before rising sea levels destroy a large part of the island’s history.
Scientists hope to use the 3-D images they have taken to help identify which sites are most at-risk to natural disasters and other dangers.Falko Kuester,a scientist,said,“A big part of what we’re working on is to make the invisible visible and make sure it stays in our memory.”
Scientists first explored a large stretch of land along Puerto Rico’s north coast.That area includes a ceremonial center used by the Taino Indians about 2,000 years ago.Isabel Rivera,an environmental archaeologist,said the scientists found what appears to be a large settlement just east of the ceremonial site.
The Tainos once lived on many islands in the Caribbean Sea.But after the arrival of Christopher Columbus and other Europeans,the indigenous(本土的) people were nearly all killed.Rivera said,“Up to today,there is still a lot we don’t know about indigenous culture along our coasts.It’s not in our history books.We want to recover that information before it disappears.”
Some scientists say that warmer temperatures in the Caribbean increase the number and strength of storms.Scientists noted that large amounts of water caused by Hurricane Maria washed away part of the area they are studying.
Eric Lo,an engineer,flew to Puerto Rico in August 2017 to launch the project one month before Maria struck the island.Lo was surprised at what he saw when he returned to the US territory months later.He said,“Pieces of land where I had stood and flown the drone didn’t exist anymore.They were underwater.”
Scientists are now trying to find out how badly the hurricane and loss of land have affected the archaeological site they are studying.Scientists are using 3-D models based on drone images to measure areas and explore other details.
28.What can scientists most probably see by applying the 3-D images
A.The sites staying in memory.
B.The remaining territory of Puerto Rico.
C.The history destroyed by rising sea levels.
D.The sites most likely to disappear quickly.
29.What do we know about the Tainos from the text
A.They didn’t experience hurricanes.
B.They settled in the center of Puerto Rico.
C.They took advantage of a ceremonial site.
D.They were all killed by Christopher Columbus.
30.What can we infer from Eric’s words
A.His engineering work is valueless.
B.Storms made severe damage to the sites.
C.Global warming is the cause to all the losses.
D.Archaeological digging caused the loss of land.
31.Which of the following is a suitable title for the text
A.How to Win over Nature
B.Secrets of a Heritage Site
C.Impacts of Climate Change
D.A Race to Document Heritage
D
A robotic game of cat-and-mouse playing out in a lab provides a sight at future possibilities of robots carrying out search-and-rescue missions without much human guidance.
The Tianjicat robot developed by researchers at Tsinghua University in China uses a brain-inspired computing chip called TianjicX.The so-called neuromorphic chip(神经形态芯片) can run multiple artificial intelligence techniques at the same time in an energy-efficient manner.It is one example of experiments with neuromorphic systems that could allow small robots to make decisions using limited computing resources and power.
The researchers challenged the Tianjicat robot to chase(追逐) another robot that was set to move randomly in a room filled with obstacles.This required Tianjicat to track the mouse robot by using both visual recognition and sound detection, and to figure out the best path to chase down its pretend prey(假想猎物) without knocking on anything.The team says that the TianjicX chip reduced the amount of power required for the robot cat to make decisions during the chase by about half compared with an NVIDIA chip designed for AI computing.
Performing a cat-and-mouse chase would be a step up in difficulty for most commercialized robots, which usually follow very predictable routines in warehouses or factories.Many robots that interact with more complex and unpredictable environments rely on remote control by human operators, or else must maintain wireless connections with distant data centres that have the computing power necessary for more intensive decision-making.Neuromorphic systems haven’t yet been commercialized in a big way, but their relatively low size, weight and power requirements could provide practical advantages or robotic deployment(部署).
The Tianjicat robot is worldwide acknowledged.“For robotics, this is very important because it allows the system to operate for longer durations in hard-to-reach environments with greater autonomy,” says Jeffrey Krichmar at the University of California, Irvine.
32.What do the researchers want the robot to do by testing it
A.Assist in research.
B.Do rescue work.
C.Help get rid of rats.
D.Save power.
33.What does paragraph 3 mainly tell us
A.Why the robot chases another robot.
B.What the robot’s pretend prey is like.
C.How researchers test the robot.
D.How much power the robot uses in an action.
34.What makes a Tianjicat robot have advantages over others
A.Its small size.
B.Its mouse-like shape.
C.Its business value.
D.Its date center.
35.What’s Jeffrey Krichmar’s attitude towards the invention of the Tianjicat robot
A.Negative. B.Doubtful.
C.Unconcerned. D.Favorable.
第二节 (共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)
阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Some people prefer to have a bite to eat before hitting the gym,known as a fed workout.Others would like to wait until after exercising to refuel their bodies,called a fasted workout. 36 Many experts say there’s no easy answer because it depends on the person.
If you want energy and strength for an ideal workout,you need fuel.A fed workout will provide your body with power.Eating before exercise may help you sustain longer sessions and lift heavier weights. 37 Muscle preservation is also an essential component of strengthening your body.Nitrogen(氮)is critical for processing protein that builds healthy muscles.People tend to lose less nitrogen during a fed workout than a fasted one.
Many fitness enthusiasts are not on board with this idea.They report feeling sick and inactive while trying to exercise after eating.With a fasted workout,you may not get the usual indigestion.Experts for fasted workouts further claim that eating afterwards makes your body use its fat reserves for energy,meaning you will burn more fat. 38 It can cause a sudden drop in your blood glucose(葡萄糖) levels,and you may feel dizzy.You may even be more likely to overeat.
39 Not all foods are created equally.For example,if you choose a fed workout,you’ll probably lose a lot of water during an intense training,so you should consider drinking some beforehand.With a fasted workout,it would help if you had some nutrition right after your session is complete.Drink some water.Then,have a light meal or nutritional snack.
Deciding when to eat for an ideal workout is a personal choice.Both fasted workouts and fed activities have their benefits and shortcomings. 40
A.However,a fasted workout might not work for you.
B.How your body will respond is based on your workout intensity.
C.These benefits can result in burning more fat and shaping a slimmer body.
D.To eat or not to eat,that is the question on many fitness enthusiasts’ minds.
E.Think thoroughly and discuss with your fitness instructor before taking a choice.
F.Knowing what to eat for an ideal workout is just as important as knowing when to eat.
G.A person doing a 30-minute session a day may not have a problem with fasted workouts.

How English Can Help Me in My Future Life
第二节 (满分25分)
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 had been acting in school for a few years.When I got a rough role in a play,I,only a junior in my high school,was excited that my inspiring drama teacher and director had trusted me with the part.
We had little time to prepare and I would never forget reading the lines for the first time.At first the dialogue was lively,but then it became quite long and boring.To my surprise,my character had one disrespectful line that complained about his bad luck.I had never said something like that on stage before.Uncomfortable as I felt about it,I had never thought of making myself heard to make a change.I was weak,went silent,and accepted the line as it was.
At our first rehearsal(彩排),I whispered the line and hoped with so many distractions on stage that the director wouldn’t notice.Luckily,she didn’t.Over three wild weeks of rehearsals,I convinced myself that I could keep faking it.Then,when the curtain finally rose with an audience,maybe I would feel fine about saying the line just once as loudly as I could.
On the night of the open dress rehearsal,I was nervous to see an old couple,the Ehlers,seated in the hall.They were close friends of our family and I had no idea they would be there.When the big moment arrived,with nervousness racing through my body,I went for it.I remember the moment quite clearly.Where I stood.How it sounded.How I felt.
After the show,the Ehlers met me with cheers,a warm hug,and some brief dialogue of their own.While talking with them,I was overwhelmed by mixed feelings of regret and shame.
注意:续写词数应为150个左右。
“Jason,that was quite some language.You surprised us,” Mrs Ehlers looked at me.
I said goodbye to the couple and waited in the drama room until our director appeared.

M:Thank you,and we want to buy a new television set.
W:What kind of television set do you want to buy
M:A color TV set,of course,but I’m not sure about the size.Maybe we should buy a big one.If we buy a small one,we might have to change it in a few years’ time for a bigger one.That would be a waste of money.What’s your opinion
W:In my opinion,I don’t think it’s necessary to buy a very big one.
M:Any reason
W:Yes.As I know,your sitting room isn’t very big.If you put in a very big television,it will be bad for your eyes,and a small TV set can still pick up good programmes.
M:Mm,that’s quite sure.I’ll think about it.
W:You’d better make a quick decision because the price may go up soon.

Deep Springs is an American college.It is an unusual college.It is high in the White Mountains in California not in college town.The campus is a collection of old buildings with no beautiful classrooms.The only college-like thing about Deep Springs is its library.Students can borrow from the 17,000 books 24 hours a day.The library is never crowded as there are only 24 excellent boy students at the college. And there are only 5 professors.These teachers believe in the idea of the college.They are not well paid.In fact,their salaries are only about 9,000 dollars a year.The college gives the teachers and students something more important than money.There is no place like Deep Springs.Students are there to learn and they cannot run away from problems because there is no place to escape to.At most colleges students can close their books and go to a film.They can go out to restaurants or to parties,but the students in Deep Springs have completely difficult activities.They can talk to each other or their teachers.They might go out for a walk in the desert.Deep Springs is far from the world of restaurants and cinemas.There is not even a television set on the campus.

Best Trucks for 2022 and 2023
2022 Rivian R1T
The 2022 Rivian R1T charges onto the market as the first mainstream electric pickup, and it makes a strong impression.The R1T is equal parts workhorse and adventure vehicle, though its electrified(通电的) powertrain needs to be further enhanced.Still, it’s the first of many electric pickups to come.
2022 Ford F-150 Lightning
The electrification of America’s best-selling pickup truck is a tall order, but it’s a job that the Ford F-150 Lightning has pulled off wonderfully.The Lightning is powerful, efficient and capable.Apart from range limitations when towing(拖车), the F-150 Lightning is every bit the workhorse that full-size pickup truck buyers have come to expect.
2022 Jeep Gladiator
The 2022 Jeep Gladiator is an honest-to-goodness pick truck.It’s skilled at towing and pulling, it’s exceptionally capable off road, and its inner part is roomy and built to last.The trade-off is that the Gladiator isn’t as comfortable, quiet or well-equipped as others.
2023 GMC Hummer EV Pickup
The all-new 2023 GMC Hummer EV is designed to offer truck buyers a chance to replace their gas-powered pickups with battery-powered ones, and it’s a role that the Hummer EV should perform convincingly.It rides, handles, and speeds up better than just about any traditional full-size pickup on the market.However, that capability doesn’t come cheap, but overall, the new Hummer gets a lot of public attention in the small but growing electric truck market.

As a junior economics reporter, I was once given an assignment which made me panic.I was asked to write a story about an economic concept I didn’t really understand.No one else from my team was around.Searching online left me more confused.Just then, Martin Wolf, the chief economics commentator(评论员) in my company, walked past my desk.I took a deep breath and asked him.He explained it well in a few sentences and my problem was unexpectedly solved.
Ever since then, I have been a big believer in asking “stupid” questions, by which I mean questions that you fear make you look stupid.But I’m worried this is a dying art.Professor Arvind Narayanan once told me that his students were always worrying their questions might be silly, which made the vast majority of his students tend to keep silent in lectures no matter how he encouraged them, even when they were still filled with confusion.
Fear of asking “stupid” questions can lead you to pretend you know more than you do, which also makes you more likely to believe whatever others say.One study published in 2021 asked participants to rank their knowledge of a set of terms on a five-point scale from “never heard of it” to “know it well, understand the concept”.Some of the terms were real; others were fake(伪造的).The study found that people who were more willing to pretend they know something well were more likely to fall for nonsense of others.
I know not everyone is lucky enough to have a Martin Wolf wandering past their desk.But trust me, a journalist who asks questions for a living: most people really don’t mind being asked something “stupid”.If they do, it is probably because they don’t really understand it themselves, or they have something to hide.In that sense, you learn something useful either way.

A group of scientists are hurrying to document ancient ruins on the US territory of Puerto Rico.The scientists are working as fast as they can before rising sea levels destroy a large part of the island’s history.
Scientists hope to use the 3-D images they have taken to help identify which sites are most at-risk to natural disasters and other dangers.Falko Kuester,a scientist,said,“A big part of what we’re working on is to make the invisible visible and make sure it stays in our memory.”
Scientists first explored a large stretch of land along Puerto Rico’s north coast.That area includes a ceremonial center used by the Taino Indians about 2,000 years ago.Isabel Rivera,an environmental archaeologist,said the scientists found what appears to be a large settlement just east of the ceremonial site.
The Tainos once lived on many islands in the Caribbean Sea.But after the arrival of Christopher Columbus and other Europeans,the indigenous(本土的) people were nearly all killed.Rivera said,“Up to today,there is still a lot we don’t know about indigenous culture along our coasts.It’s not in our history books.We want to recover that information before it disappears.”
Some scientists say that warmer temperatures in the Caribbean increase the number and strength of storms.Scientists noted that large amounts of water caused by Hurricane Maria washed away part of the area they are studying.
Eric Lo,an engineer,flew to Puerto Rico in August 2017 to launch the project one month before Maria struck the island.Lo was surprised at what he saw when he returned to the US territory months later.He said,“Pieces of land where I had stood and flown the drone didn’t exist anymore.They were underwater.”
Scientists are now trying to find out how badly the hurricane and loss of land have affected the archaeological site they are studying.Scientists are using 3-D models based on drone images to measure areas and explore other details.
语篇解读 这是一篇说明文。一组科学家正在加紧记录和保护波多黎各海岸的古代遗迹。文章介绍了有关泰诺印第安人的一些知识以及遗址遭受自然灾害破坏的影响。

A robotic game of cat-and-mouse playing out in a lab provides a sight at future possibilities of robots carrying out search-and-rescue missions without much human guidance.
The Tianjicat robot developed by researchers at Tsinghua University in China uses a brain-inspired computing chip called TianjicX.The so-called neuromorphic chip(神经形态芯片) can run multiple artificial intelligence techniques at the same time in an energy-efficient manner.It is one example of experiments with neuromorphic systems that could allow small robots to make decisions using limited computing resources and power.
The researchers challenged the Tianjicat robot to chase(追逐) another robot that was set to move randomly in a room filled with obstacles.This required Tianjicat to track the mouse robot by using both visual recognition and sound detection, and to figure out the best path to chase down its pretend prey(假想猎物) without knocking on anything.The team says that the TianjicX chip reduced the amount of power required for the robot cat to make decisions during the chase by about half compared with an NVIDIA chip designed for AI computing.
Performing a cat-and-mouse chase would be a step up in difficulty for most commercialized robots, which usually follow very predictable routines in warehouses or factories.Many robots that interact with more complex and unpredictable environments rely on remote control by human operators, or else must maintain wireless connections with distant data centres that have the computing power necessary for more intensive decision-making.Neuromorphic systems haven’t yet been commercialized in a big way, but their relatively low size, weight and power requirements could provide practical advantages or robotic deployment(部署).
The Tianjicat robot is worldwide acknowledged.“For robotics, this is very important because it allows the system to operate for longer durations in hard-to-reach environments with greater autonomy,” says Jeffrey Krichmar at the University of California, Irvine.

第二节 (共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)
阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Some people prefer to have a bite to eat before hitting the gym,known as a fed workout.Others would like to wait until after exercising to refuel their bodies,called a fasted workout. 36 Many experts say there’s no easy answer because it depends on the person.
If you want energy and strength for an ideal workout,you need fuel.A fed workout will provide your body with power.Eating before exercise may help you sustain longer sessions and lift heavier weights. 37 Muscle preservation is also an essential component of strengthening your body.Nitrogen(氮)is critical for processing protein that builds healthy muscles.People tend to lose less nitrogen during a fed workout than a fasted one.
Many fitness enthusiasts are not on board with this idea.They report feeling sick and inactive while trying to exercise after eating.With a fasted workout,you may not get the usual indigestion.Experts for fasted workouts further claim that eating afterwards makes your body use its fat reserves for energy,meaning you will burn more fat. 38 It can cause a sudden drop in your blood glucose(葡萄糖) levels,and you may feel dizzy.You may even be more likely to overeat.
39 Not all foods are created equally.For example,if you choose a fed workout,you’ll probably lose a lot of water during an intense training,so you should consider drinking some beforehand.With a fasted workout,it would help if you had some nutrition right after your session is complete.Drink some water.Then,have a light meal or nutritional snack.
Deciding when to eat for an ideal workout is a personal choice.Both fasted workouts and fed activities have their benefits and shortcomings. 40
A.However,a fasted workout might not work for you.
B.How your body will respond is based on your workout intensity.
C.These benefits can result in burning more fat and shaping a slimmer body.
D.To eat or not to eat,that is the question on many fitness enthusiasts’ minds.
E.Think thoroughly and discuss with your fitness instructor before taking a choice.
F.Knowing what to eat for an ideal workout is just as important as knowing when to eat.
G.A person doing a 30-minute session a day may not have a problem with fasted workouts.

解析 考查形容词。修饰名词latitudes用形容词形式。形容词gold意为“金色的”;形容词golden意为“黄金般的,绝佳的”,根据句意可知,本句指的是新疆地理位置绝佳。故填golden。
62.答案 which
解析 考查定语从句。这里为定语从句的关系词,先行词为“over 24,000 square kilometers”,在非限制性定语从句中充当主语,所以用关系代词which引导从句。故填which。
63.答案 intended
解析 考查形容词。根据空后的destination可知,空处为形容词“打算中的,理想的”作定语。故填intended。
64.答案 are running/have been running
解析 考查时态和主谓一致。这里为本句谓语动词,根据上文以及本句时间状语“day and night”可知,本句时态为现在进行时或者现在完成进行时;主语为“Dozens of machines”,复数,所以谓语动词用复数。故填are running/have been running。
65.答案 to produce
解析 考查非谓语动词。这里为非谓语动词充当目的状语,用动词的不定式形式。故填to produce。

I had been acting in school for a few years.When I got a rough role in a play,I,only a junior in my high school,was excited that my inspiring drama teacher and director had trusted me with the part.
We had little time to prepare and I would never forget reading the lines for the first time.At first the dialogue was lively,but then it became quite long and boring.To my surprise,my character had one disrespectful line that complained about his bad luck.I had never said something like that on stage before.Uncomfortable as I felt about it,I had never thought of making myself heard to make a change.I was weak,went silent,and accepted the line as it was.
At our first rehearsal(彩排),I whispered the line and hoped with so many distractions on stage that the director wouldn’t notice.Luckily,she didn’t.Over three wild weeks of rehearsals,I convinced myself that I could keep faking it.Then,when the curtain finally rose with an audience,maybe I would feel fine about saying the line just once as loudly as I could.
On the night of the open dress rehearsal,I was nervous to see an old couple,the Ehlers,seated in the hall.They were close friends of our family and I had no idea they would be there.When the big moment arrived,with nervousness racing through my body,I went for it.I remember the moment quite clearly.Where I stood.How it sounded.How I felt.
After the show,the Ehlers met me with cheers,a warm hug,and some brief dialogue of their own.While talking with them,I was overwhelmed by mixed feelings of regret and shame.
注意:续写词数应为150个左右。
“Jason,that was quite some language.You surprised us,” Mrs Ehlers looked at me.
I said goodbye to the couple and waited in the drama room until our director appeared.

“Jason,that was quite some language.You surprised us,” Mrs Ehlers looked at me.I told Mrs Ehlers frankly that I had been unwilling to say it.Mrs Ehlers patted me on the shoulder consolingly,suggesting that I should have told the director to change it.I nodded my head,but still doubted whether the director would let me.Mrs Ehlers seemed to have read my mind and said with a soft smile,“Whatever you get is a gain.We have to stand up and give it a try sometimes,don’t we?”
I said goodbye to the couple and waited in the drama room until our director appeared.With my heart racing,I stood near her desk and casually asked if I might possibly change the disrespectful line in the play to a more decent one.She sank into silence for a moment and replied,“Your replacement is indeed more appropriate.Thank you!” Agreeably surprised by her response,I left with a mixture of gratitude,humility,respect and shame.From that moment on,I felt increasingly confident and proud to share my views with others.
