三、阅读理解（共14小题，每小题 2 分，满分 28 分）
阅读下列短文，从短文后各题所给的 A、B、C、D 四个选项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑
A
A recent study suggests that 65% of our daily behaviors are automatic （无意识的） .These habitual behaviors can be helpful （e.g.，handwashing） or unhelpful （e.g.，nail﹣biting） .Understanding how habits form and how to change them is important for improving health and productivity.
However，studying habits isn't easy，as habitual behaviors happen automatically，and we can't always see or measure （衡量） them directly.In the past，scientists studied habits in animals，but humans are more complex （复杂的），as we can control habits if we are determined.For example，we can avoid eating chocolate after dinner every day if we are truly willing to，but if we aren't thinking about it，we might eat a lot without noticing.
Researchers have used methods like computer games or quick﹣response tasks to measure habits，but these often fail to reflect real life and all its complexities.Real﹣world studies study habits by asking people how often they do something or how automatic it feels.Although these questions can measure habits over time，they don't tell us much about what's happening in the brain.So，there's a trade﹣off.Lab studies are controlled but not realistic.Real﹣world studies are realistic but hard to control.
That's where virtual reality （VR） comes in.It can allow for interaction with a realistic 3 Denvironment.
Researchers at the University of Surrey aim to develop a method in the VR lab in which they can create habits similar to real﹣world actions.In their VR environment，participants will wear VR headsets and act as hospital workers preparing rooms for patients.They must follow a specific order of tasks— for example，making the bed，then emptying the bin.By repeating this order many times，they start to form habits.
The researchers can test the strength of these habits by changing the instructions in the VR environment.For example，participants are asked to do the tasks again while having to finish another task，or to complete them in a new order.If they accidentally return to the old routine or take longer to adjust，it can show how strong the habit is.
The promise of VR is great.Nearly any environment can be recreated，allowing for more research opportunities.Using VR to measure habits could help answer many important questions：What's the best way to add a new habit to a routine？And how can we replace bad habits with better ones？By using VR，we may gain new insights into how to build and break habits—a key to promoting positive behaviour change.
（1）What does the example of eating chocolate show in Paragraph 2？ 　 　
A.The importance of a strong will.
B.The difficulty in studying human habits.
C.The negative effect of bad habits on health.
D.The advantage of humans as study subjects.
（2）What can we learn from the passage？ 　 　
A.Studying unhelpful habits is of little importance.
B.Lab studies can better measure habits than real﹣world studies.
C.Studies using VR can help us understand how to improve habits.
D.Human habits are too complex to measure in any research setting.
（3）Which of the following would be the best title for the passage？ 　 　
A.Virtual Reality：A Novel Method to Study Habits
B.Virtual Reality：A Creative Way to Measure Human Brain
C.Habit Research：A Bridge to Leading a Healthy Lifestyle
D.Habit Research：A Key to Promoting Positive Behaviour Change
B
In the Yellow River Basin （流域），scientists studied how human activities could influence nature.They looked at the area from 2001 to 2020 and found some interesting results.Though human activities increased in 66.3% of the area，the quality of nature actually got improved by 22.61%.That is to say with the right actions，we can better nature even when there are more people and more human activities.
One interesting finding was that some farmland was turned back into natural land.Because of the government's nature﹣friendly program "Grain for Green"，people are encouraged to plant more trees and grass instead of growing crops.This added 15，994 square kilometers of natural land.The change helped to make the air fresher，the water cleaner，and the home to animals better.
Another interesting finding was that 45.88% of the area had both more human activities and improved nature at the same time.This proves that humans and nature can develop together if humans make good choices，such as recycling rubbish and saving energy.
The study showed that the wild nature in 33.7% of the Yellow River Basin also improved a lot.People started wetland protection activities and the area of wetland became 8，3000 square kilometers larger.Many endangered birds came to live and some fish swam back.
In a word，only by carrying out eco﹣friendly activities and making good use of the environment can humans and nature live in harmony （和谐）.
（1）How does the writer show the results of the study in the first paragraph？　 　
A.By telling a story.
B.By giving an example.
C.By listing numbers.

A.It centered on planting more trees and grass to feed animals.
B.It made a very big difference in helping to protect nature.
C.It increased the amount of farmland and made the air cleaner.
D.It caused more pollution but helped animals find better homes.
（3）How is the text organized？ （①＝ Paragraph 1. ②＝ Paragraph 2…）　 　
A.
B.
C.
D.
（4）Which sentence is right according to the text？　 　
A.Human activities increased in most of the Yellow River Basin and nature improved a lot.
B.The "Grain for Green" program made people grow more crops on natural land.
C.Less than 40% of the area had more human activities and better nature together.
D.The wetland area became smaller after people started protection activities.
C

三、阅读理解（共14小题，每小题 2 分，满分 28 分）
阅读下列短文，从短文后各题所给的 A、B、C、D 四个选项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑
A
A recent study suggests that 65% of our daily behaviors are automatic （无意识的） .These habitual behaviors can be helpful （e.g.，handwashing） or unhelpful （e.g.，nail﹣biting） .Understanding how habits form and how to change them is important for improving health and productivity.
However，studying habits isn't easy，as habitual behaviors happen automatically，and we can't always see or measure （衡量） them directly.In the past，scientists studied habits in animals，but humans are more complex （复杂的），as we can control habits if we are determined.For example，we can avoid eating chocolate after dinner every day if we are truly willing to，but if we aren't thinking about it，we might eat a lot without noticing.
Researchers have used methods like computer games or quick﹣response tasks to measure habits，but these often fail to reflect real life and all its complexities.Real﹣world studies study habits by asking people how often they do something or how automatic it feels.Although these questions can measure habits over time，they don't tell us much about what's happening in the brain.So，there's a trade﹣off.Lab studies are controlled but not realistic.Real﹣world studies are realistic but hard to control.
That's where virtual reality （VR） comes in.It can allow for interaction with a realistic 3 Denvironment.
Researchers at the University of Surrey aim to develop a method in the VR lab in which they can create habits similar to real﹣world actions.In their VR environment，participants will wear VR headsets and act as hospital workers preparing rooms for patients.They must follow a specific order of tasks— for example，making the bed，then emptying the bin.By repeating this order many times，they start to form habits.
The researchers can test the strength of these habits by changing the instructions in the VR environment.For example，participants are asked to do the tasks again while having to finish another task，or to complete them in a new order.If they accidentally return to the old routine or take longer to adjust，it can show how strong the habit is.
The promise of VR is great.Nearly any environment can be recreated，allowing for more research opportunities.Using VR to measure habits could help answer many important questions：What's the best way to add a new habit to a routine？And how can we replace bad habits with better ones？By using VR，we may gain new insights into how to build and break habits—a key to promoting positive behaviour change.
（1）What does the example of eating chocolate show in Paragraph 2？ 　B　
A.The importance of a strong will.
B.The difficulty in studying human habits.
C.The negative effect of bad habits on health.
D.The advantage of humans as study subjects.
（2）What can we learn from the passage？ 　C　
A.Studying unhelpful habits is of little importance.
B.Lab studies can better measure habits than real﹣world studies.
C.Studies using VR can help us understand how to improve habits.
D.Human habits are too complex to measure in any research setting.
（3）Which of the following would be the best title for the passage？ 　A　
A.Virtual Reality：A Novel Method to Study Habits
B.Virtual Reality：A Creative Way to Measure Human Brain
C.Habit Research：A Bridge to Leading a Healthy Lifestyle
D.Habit Research：A Key to Promoting Positive Behaviour Change
【分析】本文介绍了传统人类习惯研究的局限，并说明虚拟现实技术为习惯研究提供了更贴近现实且可控的新方法，有助于人们理解习惯的养成与改变。
【解答】（1）细节理解题。根据第二段However，studying habits isn't easy，as habitual behaviors happen automatically，and we can't always see or measure them directly.For example，we can avoid eating chocolate after dinner every day if we are truly willing to，but if we aren't thinking about it，we might eat a lot without noticing.（然而，研究习惯并不容易，因为习惯行为是无意识发生的，我们无法总是直接观察或衡量它们。例如，如果我们真的愿意，我们可以避免每天晚饭后吃巧克力，但如果我们没有刻意去想，可能会不知不觉吃很多。）可知吃巧克力的例子说明了研究人类习惯的困难。故选B。
（2）细节理解题。根据最后一段Using VR to measure habits could help answer many important questions：What's the best way to add a new habit to a routine？And how can we replace bad habits with better ones？（使用虚拟现实技术来衡量习惯有助于解答许多重要问题：在日常行为中培养一个新习惯的最佳方式是什么？我们如何用更好的习惯取代坏习惯？）可知使用 VR 的研究可以帮助我们理解如何改善习惯。故选C。
（3）标题归纳题。根据第四段That's where virtual reality （VR） comes in.It can allow for interaction with a realistic 3 D environment. （这就是虚拟现实技术的用武之地。它可以实现与逼真 3 D 环境的交互。）以及第五段 Researchers at the University of Surrey aim to develop a method in the VR lab in which they can create habits similar to real﹣world actions. （萨里大学的研究人员旨在VR实验室中开发一种方法，创建与现实行为相似的习惯。）还有最后一段 The promise of VR is great.Using VR to measure habits could help answer many important questions.（VR 的应用前景广阔，用它衡量习惯能帮助解答许多重要问题。）可知全文主要介绍 VR 作为一种研究习惯的新方法。故选A。
B
In the Yellow River Basin （流域），scientists studied how human activities could influence nature.They looked at the area from 2001 to 2020 and found some interesting results.Though human activities increased in 66.3% of the area，the quality of nature actually got improved by 22.61%.That is to say with the right actions，we can better nature even when there are more people and more human activities.
One interesting finding was that some farmland was turned back into natural land.Because of the government's nature﹣friendly program "Grain for Green"，people are encouraged to plant more trees and grass instead of growing crops.This added 15，994 square kilometers of natural land.The change helped to make the air fresher，the water cleaner，and the home to animals better.
Another interesting finding was that 45.88% of the area had both more human activities and improved nature at the same time.This proves that humans and nature can develop together if humans make good choices，such as recycling rubbish and saving energy.
The study showed that the wild nature in 33.7% of the Yellow River Basin also improved a lot.People started wetland protection activities and the area of wetland became 8，3000 square kilometers larger.Many endangered birds came to live and some fish swam back.
In a word，only by carrying out eco﹣friendly activities and making good use of the environment can humans and nature live in harmony （和谐）.

D.It caused more pollution but helped animals find better homes.
（3）How is the text organized？ （①＝ Paragraph 1. ②＝ Paragraph 2…）　B　
A.
B.
C.
D.
（4）Which sentence is right according to the text？　A　
A.Human activities increased in most of the Yellow River Basin and nature improved a lot.
B.The "Grain for Green" program made people grow more crops on natural land.
C.Less than 40% of the area had more human activities and better nature together.
D.The wetland area became smaller after people started protection activities.
