The Guide on Your Trip to Copenhagen
Regularly ranked among the happiest places globally, Copenhagen is a pleasant place for visitors and residents alike.
Planning Your Trip
Best Time to Visit: While almost every month of the year has its own appeal, the best time to visit Copenhagen is May through September. One of Copenhagen’s most attractive parts is that even during the peak months of July and August, the city is never crowded with people but full of life and energy.
Getting Around: Biking is by far the most common way to get around the flat streets of Copenhagen. Download a bike-share app or rent a bike from your hotel. The driverless, eco-friendly Metro, buses and water buses cover most of the city.
Travel Tip: If you have data, pre-load your phone with a few key apps, like Donkey Republic for quick bike rentals and Mobilbilletter for buying tickets for public transportation.
Things to Do
Copenhagen’s museums cover everything from ancient Vikings to Andy Warhol and are a draw for many visitors. Shopping trips, canal tours and lunches around town fill the days while top tables, excellent cocktails and live music occupy the nights.
Culture and Customs
The Danes (丹麦人) are polite and value arriving on time (Seriously, don’t be late for dinner reservations!), but they are not overly warm to people outside of their tight-knit groups of friends.
Unless you’re at a five-star restaurant, expect to flag down a member of the waitstaff at least once, and they almost certainly won’t stop by to make sure you’re enjoying your meal. If you’d like another glass of wine or to order something else, don’t be shy. Tipping is not expected.
1. When is the best time to visit Copenhagen
A. June. B. April. C. October. D. December.

South Korean poet and novelist Han Kang was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature Thursday for a poetic and unsettling body of work that the Nobel committee said “deals with historical pains and exposes the weakness of human life”.
A slow-burning international literary star who has won multiple awards in South Korea and Europe, Han is the first Asian woman and the first South Korean writer to win the Nobel Literature Prize. She was awarded for books, including The Vegetarian and Human Acts, which explore the pain of being human and the scars (伤疤) of Korea’s unstable history.
Nobel Literature Committee member Anna-Karin Palm said, “Han writes about pain and loss, whether individual or collective, with the same pity and care. And this, I think, is something that is quite remarkable.”
Han, 53, won the International Booker Prize for fiction translated into English in 2016 for The Vegetarian, an unsettling novel in which a woman’s decision to stop eating meat has disastrous results.
Works translated into English also include Greek Lessons — about the relationship between a woman who can no longer speak and a teacher who is losing his sight, Human Acts which is based on the real-life killing of pro-democracy protesters in Han’s home city of Gwangju in 1980 and The White Book, a poetic novel that draws on the death of Han’s older sister shortly after birth.
Human Acts won Italy’s Malaparte Prize in 2017 and The White Book was an International Booker Prize finalist in 2018.
Her most recent novel, We Do Not Part, is due to be published in English next year. It touches on a chapter in South Korea’s 20th-century history, which saw the country endure war, the division of the Korean peninsula and dictatorship. The novel deals with a 1948 — 1949 uprising on Jeju, an island south of the Korean mainland in which thousands of people were killed.
4. What does the underlined word “collective” in paragraph 3 probably mean
A. Shared. B. Special. C. Private. D. Selected.
5. Which of Han Kang’s works won the International Booker Prize in 2016
A. Human Acts. B. The White Book. C. The Vegetarian. D. Greek Lessons.
6. What is paragraph 5 mainly about
A. The cultural elements in Han Kang’s works.
B. The themes explored in Han Kang’s works.
C The awards that Han Kang’s works have won.
D. The brief introduction of some of Han Kang’s works.
7. What can be learned about We Do Not Part by Han Kang according to the text
A. It is a light-hearted story. B. It deals with historical events.
C. It focuses on love and romance. D. It is more popular than her previous works.
C
It’s a reality show about a loving couple waiting to welcome their new arrival, watched by thousands of fans. But the stars of Royal Cam, now in its 10th season, aren’t celebrities in love but northern royal albatrosses — seabirds from New Zealand with three-meter wingspans (翼展).
The 24-hour live stream of the birds’ breeding (繁殖) season at Taiaroa Head on New Zealand’s South Island was established to raise awareness of the threatened species, numbers of which have grown slowly in time thanks to careful protection efforts.
Millions have watched the stream since it began in 2016. “Before that it was very difficult to follow an albatross’ life cycle because they’re only on land 15% of the time,” said Sharyn Broni, a ranger (护林员) in the Department of Conservation who has worked with the birds for nearly 30 years. “You’d have to travel a long way to see one.”
Royal Cam’s popularity has exploded in recent years. On a busy comments page hosted by New Zealand’s Department of Conservation, fans track the birds’ locations on an app, discuss interesting moments and even create art inspired by the albatrosses.
Unlike human reality shows, drama is rare. Royal albatrosses usually mate for life. Rangers selecting the birds to follow each year avoid anything at issue: no first-time parents and no fight-loving personalities. This year’s stars are RLK, a 12-year-old male, and GLG, a 14-year-old female, who have raised two chicks before. Their names come from the colors on bands that rangers attach to their legs.
Everything happens slowly in the show and that’s what many fans enjoy about it. Clouds drift by, ships pass in the distance and the sun sets, turning the sky pink and peach. During the incubation (孵化) season in January, the albatrosses sit on their eggs.
But there are occasional moments of drama, with albatross crash landings and mating dances. And perhaps the most exciting aspect is the progress that this group has made. When protection measures began in 1937, there was just one mating pair here, but now there are more than 60.
8. What can we say about the albatrosses according to the text
A. Efforts to protect them have worked. B. They reproduce very quickly.
C. They can be easily found in many places. D. Their natural home has been lost.
9. What can we infer from paragraph 5
A. Albatrosses are as popular as human celebrities.
B. The albatrosses for the show are carefully selected.
C. Long-term albatross mating drives the show’s viewership.
D. Albatrosses’ names are too complex for fans to remember.
10. Why do many fans like the Royal Cam
A. It saves many injured birds. B. It provides useful tips on bird-watching.
C. It’s full of dramatic moments. D. It shows a peaceful life.
11. Which of the following is the best title for the text
A. The Life Cycle of Royal Albatrosses. B. The Rare Albatrosses of New Zealand.
C. Albatross-themed Art and Fan Interaction. D. A Popular Reality Show Starring Albatrosses.
D
Mothers often say that pregnancy (怀孕) is a time unlike any other — both the body and the brain change in new and sometimes scary ways. And a new study has tried to find out exactly how much of a change women’s brains experience during pregnancy and the early stages of motherhood.
According to an international research team, 94% of pregnant people’s gray matter experiences a reduction in volume of up to 5%. “Pregnancy transforms the brain,” the study’s senior author Oscar Vilarroya said.
Gray matter is found throughout our central nervous system, which is in the brain and in the spinal cord (脊髓). The Cleveland Clinic says gray matter plays a significant role in all aspects of human functioning, adding that it is essential for controlling movement, memory and emotions.
To explore the changes in gray matter during pregnancy, the researchers looked at 127 first-time mothers in Spain. They were tracked from before they became pregnant to six months after giving birth, and had five MRI scans to look at their brain structure at different stages of pregnancy and motherhood. Their hormone (激素) levels were also measured, and they completed questionnaires about their wellbeing.
The study found that gray matter volume changes in a U-shaped pattern. So volumes decreased by 2.7% during the second three-month period of pregnancy, and 5% just before birth, but began to increase again in the six months after giving birth. Variations in hormone levels were identified as the likely cause for the changes in gray matter.
The recovery in gray matter volume after giving birth was associated with greater mother-baby attachment, Vilarroya said, although the volume didn’t recover to pre-pregnancy level. This recovery along with the level of attachment to the baby is also influenced by the state of the mother’s mental health, the study found.
The researchers said that understanding more about the way women’s brains change during pregnancy is crucial, because it allows experts to better support new mothers.
12. What can be concluded about gray matter from the text
A. It only exists in the brain. B. Its volume is fixed in our body.
C. It is important for human functions. D. Its main role is to adjust hormone levels.
13. How did the researchers conduct the study
A. By tracking women at different stages. B. By analyzing questionnaires from fathers.
C. By observing the color of the babies’ eyes. D. By testing pregnant women and their babies.
14. After giving birth, the gray matter of new mothers ________.
A. continues to reduce B. starts to increase
C. remains the same as at birth D. returns to pre-pregnancy volume
15. What might happen if a new mother has poor mental health
A. Her baby may get sick easily. B. Her memory may suffer a sharp decrease.
C. Her attachment to the baby may be weak. D. Her hormone levels will rise quickly.

42-year-old Christine Dawn King has worked at a pet hospital for 10 years. She is a pet doctor and loves working with pets. As she is warm-hearted and professional, pet owners living in the neighbourhood also love to ask her to treat their pets.
One Thursday morning, Christine was hurrying to her job. The traffic on the road was thick — no surprise for this stretch of highway. She pulled into the exit lane(车道), where cars were moving at a slow speed.
That was when Christine noticed a woman standing near cars with a dog beside her. Christine saw the cause of the traffic jam: The small dog had somehow gotten out of the car and was now stuck in the metal fences(栅栏)in the middle of the highway. The little dog was obviously frightened in the small space, unable to break free. Despite his owner’s best efforts, he was still struggling.
The woman caught the dog’s collar(项圈)but couldn’t move him. Her hands were shaking, and her face was covered with sweat. She was obviously very panicked, not knowing what to do. Some drivers impatiently honked their horns(摁喇叭). Others were too focused on their own schedules to offer assistance. Christine could see the anxiety on the woman’s face as she looked around.
Without hesitation, Christine opened the car door. She quickly walked towards the dog. “Let me see if I can help,” Christine said to the woman. The woman was a little hesitant but still walked aside to allow the stranger to have a try. Christine carefully checked on the situation. She found that the dog was scared, but not injured. She spoke gently to the dog, trying to calm him down. Next, she took out a tool carried with her car and tried her best to widen the gap between the fences. The dog seemed to realize that Christine was here to help him, not struggling anymore.
In no time, the gap between the fences became larger. There was enough space to move the dog. Christine gently lifted him out, taking great care not to hurt him.
注意：1.续写词数应为150个左右；
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
The woman stepped forward and carefully held her dog.

Christine arrived at her office, expecting to see the woman again.

South Korean poet and novelist Han Kang was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature Thursday for a poetic and unsettling body of work that the Nobel committee said “deals with historical pains and exposes the weakness of human life”.
A slow-burning international literary star who has won multiple awards in South Korea and Europe, Han is the first Asian woman and the first South Korean writer to win the Nobel Literature Prize. She was awarded for books, including The Vegetarian and Human Acts, which explore the pain of being human and the scars (伤疤) of Korea’s unstable history.
Nobel Literature Committee member Anna-Karin Palm said, “Han writes about pain and loss, whether individual or collective, with the same pity and care. And this, I think, is something that is quite remarkable.”
Han, 53, won the International Booker Prize for fiction translated into English in 2016 for The Vegetarian, an unsettling novel in which a woman’s decision to stop eating meat has disastrous results.
Works translated into English also include Greek Lessons — about the relationship between a woman who can no longer speak and a teacher who is losing his sight, Human Acts which is based on the real-life killing of pro-democracy protesters in Han’s home city of Gwangju in 1980 and The White Book, a poetic novel that draws on the death of Han’s older sister shortly after birth.
Human Acts won Italy’s Malaparte Prize in 2017 and The White Book was an International Booker Prize finalist in 2018.
Her most recent novel, We Do Not Part, is due to be published in English next year. It touches on a chapter in South Korea’s 20th-century history, which saw the country endure war, the division of the Korean peninsula and dictatorship. The novel deals with a 1948 — 1949 uprising on Jeju, an island south of the Korean mainland in which thousands of people were killed.
4. What does the underlined word “collective” in paragraph 3 probably mean
A. Shared. B. Special. C. Private. D. Selected.
5. Which of Han Kang’s works won the International Booker Prize in 2016
A. Human Acts. B. The White Book. C. The Vegetarian. D. Greek Lessons.

C. It focuses on love and romance. D. It is more popular than her previous works.
【答案】4. A 5. C 6. D 7. B

It’s a reality show about a loving couple waiting to welcome their new arrival, watched by thousands of fans. But the stars of Royal Cam, now in its 10th season, aren’t celebrities in love but northern royal albatrosses — seabirds from New Zealand with three-meter wingspans (翼展).
The 24-hour live stream of the birds’ breeding (繁殖) season at Taiaroa Head on New Zealand’s South Island was established to raise awareness of the threatened species, numbers of which have grown slowly in time thanks to careful protection efforts.
Millions have watched the stream since it began in 2016. “Before that, it was very difficult to follow an albatross’ life cycle because they’re only on land 15% of the time,” said Sharyn Broni, a ranger (护林员) in the Department of Conservation who has worked with the birds for nearly 30 years. “You’d have to travel a long way to see one.”
Royal Cam’s popularity has exploded in recent years. On a busy comments page hosted by New Zealand’s Department of Conservation, fans track the birds’ locations on an app, discuss interesting moments and even create art inspired by the albatrosses.
Unlike human reality shows, drama is rare. Royal albatrosses usually mate for life. Rangers selecting the birds to follow each year avoid anything at issue: no first-time parents and no fight-loving personalities. This year’s stars are RLK, a 12-year-old male, and GLG, a 14-year-old female, who have raised two chicks before. Their names come from the colors on bands that rangers attach to their legs.
Everything happens slowly in the show and that’s what many fans enjoy about it. Clouds drift by, ships pass in the distance and the sun sets, turning the sky pink and peach. During the incubation (孵化) season in January, the albatrosses sit on their eggs.
But there are occasional moments of drama, with albatross crash landings and mating dances. And perhaps the most exciting aspect is the progress that this group has made. When protection measures began in 1937, there was just one mating pair here, but now there are more than 60.
8. What can we say about the albatrosses according to the text
A. Efforts to protect them have worked. B. They reproduce very quickly.
C. They can be easily found in many places. D. Their natural home has been lost.
9. What can we infer from paragraph 5
A. Albatrosses are as popular as human celebrities.
B. The albatrosses for the show are carefully selected.
C. Long-term albatross mating drives the show’s viewership.
D. Albatrosses’ names are too complex for fans to remember.
10. Why do many fans like the Royal Cam
A. It saves many injured birds. B. It provides useful tips on bird-watching.
C. It’s full of dramatic moments. D. It shows a peaceful life.
11. Which of the following is the best title for the text
A. The Life Cycle of Royal Albatrosses. B. The Rare Albatrosses of New Zealand.
C. Albatross-themed Art and Fan Interaction. D. A Popular Reality Show Starring Albatrosses.
【答案】8. A 9. B 10. D 11. D

细节理解题。根据第二段中的“The 24-hour live stream of the birds’ breeding (繁殖) season at Taiaroa Head on New Zealand’s South Island was established to raise awareness of the threatened species, numbers of which have grown slowly in time thanks to careful protection efforts.(新西兰南岛泰阿罗阿角的鸟类繁殖季24小时直播节目得以设立，旨在提高人们对这种濒危物种的保护意识。由于采取了精心的保护措施，该物种的数量随着时间的推移已在缓慢增长)”可知，保护信天翁的努力已经取得了成效，它们的数量在缓慢增长。这说明保护信天翁的努力有了成效。故选A。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。根据第五段中的“Rangers selecting the birds to follow each year avoid anything at issue: no first-time parents and no fight-loving personalities.(每年挑选要跟踪观察的信天翁的护林员会避开任何有问题的情况：不选初次当父母的信天翁，也不选有好斗习性的信天翁)”可推断，节目中展示的信天翁是经过精心挑选的。故选B。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“Everything happens slowly in the show and that’s what many fans enjoy about it. Clouds drift by, ships pass in the distance and the sun sets, turning the sky pink and peach. During the incubation (孵化) season in January, the albatrosses sit on their eggs.(在这个节目中，一切都缓缓发生，而这正是许多粉丝喜欢它的地方。云朵飘过，船只从远处驶过，夕阳西下，把天空染成了粉色和桃红色。在一月份的孵化季节，信天翁们就卧在它们的蛋上)”可知，许多粉丝喜欢Royal Cam是因为它展示了一种平静的生活。故选D。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文，结合文章第一段“It’s a reality show about a loving couple waiting to welcome their new arrival, watched by thousands of fans. But the stars of Royal Cam, now in its 10th season, aren’t celebrities in love but northern royal albatrosses — seabirds from New Zealand with three-meter wingspans (翼展).(这是一档关于一对恩爱的 “伴侣” 等待迎接新生命降临的真人秀节目，吸引了数千名粉丝观看。不过，如今已播出到第十季的Royal Cam中的主角并非热恋中的名人，而是北方皇家信天翁——一种来自新西兰、翼展达三米的海鸟)”可知，文章主要介绍了一档以信天翁为主角的真人秀节目Royal Cam，讲述了该节目的背景、受欢迎程度以及节目内容等。因此，D选项“A Popular Reality Show Starring Albatrosses(一档受欢迎的信天翁真人秀节目)”最符合文章主旨，是文章的最佳标题。故选D。

Mothers often say that pregnancy (怀孕) is a time unlike any other — both the body and the brain change in new and sometimes scary ways. And a new study has tried to find out exactly how much of a change women’s brains experience during pregnancy and the early stages of motherhood.
According to an international research team, 94% of pregnant people’s gray matter experiences a reduction in volume of up to 5%. “Pregnancy transforms the brain,” the study’s senior author Oscar Vilarroya said.
Gray matter is found throughout our central nervous system, which is in the brain and in the spinal cord (脊髓). The Cleveland Clinic says gray matter plays a significant role in all aspects of human functioning, adding that it is essential for controlling movement, memory and emotions.
To explore the changes in gray matter during pregnancy, the researchers looked at 127 first-time mothers in Spain. They were tracked from before they became pregnant to six months after giving birth, and had five MRI scans to look at their brain structure at different stages of pregnancy and motherhood. Their hormone (激素) levels were also measured, and they completed questionnaires about their wellbeing.
The study found that gray matter volume changes in a U-shaped pattern. So volumes decreased by 2.7% during the second three-month period of pregnancy, and 5% just before birth, but began to increase again in the six months after giving birth. Variations in hormone levels were identified as the likely cause for the changes in gray matter.
The recovery in gray matter volume after giving birth was associated with greater mother-baby attachment, Vilarroya said, although the volume didn’t recover to pre-pregnancy level. This recovery along with the level of attachment to the baby is also influenced by the state of the mother’s mental health, the study found.
The researchers said that understanding more about the way women’s brains change during pregnancy is crucial, because it allows experts to better support new mothers.
12. What can be concluded about gray matter from the text
A. It only exists in the brain. B. Its volume is fixed in our body.
C. It is important for human functions. D. Its main role is to adjust hormone levels.
13. How did the researchers conduct the study
A. By tracking women at different stages. B. By analyzing questionnaires from fathers.
C. By observing the color of the babies’ eyes. D. By testing pregnant women and their babies.
14. After giving birth, the gray matter of new mothers ________.
A. continues to reduce B. starts to increase
C. remains the same as at birth D. returns to pre-pregnancy volume
15. What might happen if a new mother has poor mental health
A. Her baby may get sick easily. B. Her memory may suffer a sharp decrease.
C. Her attachment to the baby may be weak. D. Her hormone levels will rise quickly.
【答案】12. C 13. A 14. B 15. C
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要讲的是孕期和初为人母期间女性大脑灰质体积的变化及其对母婴关系的影响。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“The Cleveland Clinic says gray matter plays a significant role in all aspects of human functioning, adding that it is essential for controlling movement, memory and emotions.(克利夫兰诊所表示，灰质在人类功能的各个方面都发挥着重要作用，并补充说，它对控制运动、记忆和情绪至关重要)” 可知，灰质对人体机能很重要。故选C项。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段“They were tracked from before they became pregnant to six months after giving birth, and had five MRI scans to look at their brain structure at different stages of pregnancy and motherhood.(研究人员从她们怀孕前到分娩后六个月对她们进行了跟踪，并对她们在怀孕和做母亲的不同阶段的大脑结构进行了五次核磁共振扫描)” 可知，研究人员通过追踪女性在不同阶段的情况来进行这项研究。故选A项。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据第五段“The study found that gray matter volume changes in a U-shaped pattern. So volumes decreased by 2.7% during the second three-month period of pregnancy, and 5% just before birth, but began to increase again in the six months after giving birth. (研究发现，大脑灰质体积的变化呈u型曲线，即在怀孕的第二三个月，灰质体积下降了2.7%，在分娩前5%下降，但在分娩后的六个月又开始增加)”以及第六段“The recovery in gray matter volume after giving birth was associated with greater mother-baby attachment, Vilarroya said, although the volume didn’t recover to pre-pregnancy level.(Vilarroya说，分娩后灰质体积的恢复与母子关系的增强有关，尽管灰质体积没有恢复到怀孕前的水平)” 可推断，新手妈妈产后的灰质开始增加，但并未完全恢复到孕前水平。故选B项。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据第六段“This recovery along with the level of attachment to the baby is also influenced by the state of the mother's mental health, the study found.(研究发现，这种恢复以及对婴儿的依恋程度也受到母亲心理健康状况的影响)”可推断，如果一位新手妈妈心理健康状况不佳，她对宝宝的依恋可能会很弱。故选C项。

第二节（满分25分）
47. 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。
42-year-old Christine Dawn King has worked at a pet hospital for 10 years. She is a pet doctor and loves working with pets. As she is warm-hearted and professional, pet owners living in the neighbourhood also love to ask her to treat their pets.
One Thursday morning, Christine was hurrying to her job. The traffic on the road was thick — no surprise for this stretch of highway. She pulled into the exit lane(车道), where cars were moving at a slow speed.
That was when Christine noticed a woman standing near cars with a dog beside her. Christine saw the cause of the traffic jam: The small dog had somehow gotten out of the car and was now stuck in the metal fences(栅栏)in the middle of the highway. The little dog was obviously frightened in the small space, unable to break free. Despite his owner’s best efforts, he was still struggling.
The woman caught the dog’s collar(项圈)but couldn’t move him. Her hands were shaking, and her face was covered with sweat. She was obviously very panicked, not knowing what to do. Some drivers impatiently honked their horns(摁喇叭). Others were too focused on their own schedules to offer assistance. Christine could see the anxiety on the woman’s face as she looked around.
Without hesitation, Christine opened the car door. She quickly walked towards the dog. “Let me see if I can help,” Christine said to the woman. The woman was a little hesitant but still walked aside to allow the stranger to have a try. Christine carefully checked on the situation. She found that the dog was scared, but not injured. She spoke gently to the dog, trying to calm him down. Next, she took out a tool carried with her car and tried her best to widen the gap between the fences. The dog seemed to realize that Christine was here to help him, not struggling anymore.
In no time, the gap between the fences became larger. There was enough space to move the dog. Christine gently lifted him out, taking great care not to hurt him.
注意：1.续写词数应为150个左右；

The woman stepped forward and carefully held her dog.

_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】One possible version:
The woman stepped forward and carefully held her dog. She thanked Christine heartily for what she had done, with tears rolling down her cheeks. She said that without Christine’s generous help, everything would have been much worse. Christine introduced herself, and gave the woman her business card, saying she could take the dog to her pet hospital for a checkup if she still felt worried. The woman took the card and walked to her car. After the woman’s car moved away, the traffic quickly returned to normal.
Christine arrived at her office, expecting to see the woman again. In the afternoon, she saw the woman walking into the hospital with the dog and a bouquet of flowers as her gift. The woman told Christine that the dog was important to her, hoping everything would be OK with her dog. After a thorough examination of the dog, Christine told the woman the dog was fine. Hearing Christine’s words, the woman felt grateful and totally relieved.
