Four no-net-access destinations in the UKShepherds’ Retreat
Grey rock peaks, green fields and speeding clouds are your only neighbors at this distant cottage in the Sperrins. Glass doors open straight on to this landscape, and though there’s no phone
reception or wifi, there’s a TV with DVDs, and plenty of books to enjoy by the fire. There are stone circles and mountain bike paths nearby.Laggan Cottage
On the Ardnish peninsula and accessible only by boat — or a three-hour hike — this comfortable place is seriously remote. There’s zero mobile signal and no TV. Paraffin lamps, wood-burning
stoves for hot water and a Calor gas cooker are the only modern conveniences you get. It is perfect for a week of watching the wildlife, hiking, and swimming.The Straw Cottage
Candles and lanterns, gas lamps and solar lights create atmosphere at this straw-bale cottage,
constructed using centuries-old methods. With no electricity or wifi, this home set on Ty Gwyn Farm offers true escapism. Young explorers can play in the stream, follow a treasure hunt and toast marshmallows by the fire. Dogs are welcome, too.East Lodge
Other than the lack of wifi, East Lodge is a perfectly contemporary cottage. Arch windows accompany modern conveniences including a TV and DVDs for movie nights, though you may
prefer to switch off and focus on outdoor fun, biking on mountain paths and watching the wildlife.
21 .Which cottage is pet-friendly
A .Shepherds’ Retreat. B .Laggan Cottage.
C .The Straw Cottage. D .East Lodge.
22 .What can visitors do in Laggan Cottage and East Lodge

When she was 61, Sian Davies decided to row across the Atlantic Ocean. In March 2021, she was one of the 12 crew members who set out on the 3,000-mile journey from Tenerife to
battle sun, salt and fierce currents. “We would take turns rowing in three-hour interval and only
sleep for an hour or so every six hours,” she says. “For the first 15 days, I was seasick, so I hardly ate anything. I was just rowing and collapsing. I went through some pretty dark times.”
But after 42 days on the water, Davies reached Antigua to become one of the only six
women in the world over the age of 60 to have rowed across an ocean. “I was totally worn out and I was also so proud of myself,” she says.
Davies began rowing when she was 53, after spotting a six-oar rowing boat in Bristol
harbor. Attracted by its size and appearance, she spoke to the crew and was encouraged to do a trial run. “Barely had I got on the water when I knew I’d never get enough of it,” she says.
“Feeling your whole body working and the fresh air on your skin is amazing.”
It wasn’t until 2017, though, that her Atlantic plans were born. Suffering from a herniated disc, she was only able to drag herself out of bed. “I began thinking of things I could look forward to after I had surgery,” she recalls. “One day I was reading about women adventurers when it hit me that once better, I would row across an ocean.”
After successful surgery, Davies began driving to meet other women who had undertaken rows. Hearing the experiences and advice of them gave Davies the confidence. Soon after, she heard that a new boat producer was organizing a team for a voyage across the Atlantic and she joined it immediately.
“In June, I’m planning to break a few world records by rowing around the UK when I’m 64, and I want to motorcycle through the Himalayas later in the year. After all, we need things to look back on,” she says.
24 .What do we know about Davies’journey across the Atlantic
A .She suffered a lot during the process.
B .She only slept for an hour per day.
C .She was the oldest woman to finish it.
D .She finished the journey with six other elderly women.
25 .How did Davies feel about her first attempt to row
A .Amazed. B .Proud. C .Relieved. D .Impressed.
26 .What inspired Davies to row across the Atlantic
A .Some female explorers’ stories.
B .Sufferings from her serious disease.
C .A trial row on a six-oar rowing boat.
D .Experiences and advice from some women.
27 .Which of the following best describes Davies
A .Daring and co-operative. B .Humble and self-motivated.
C .Determined and sensitive. D .Strong-willed and ambitious.
C
In the summers of 2018 and 2019, ecologist James Ryalls and his colleagues would go out to a field near Reading in southern England to stare at the insects flying around black mustard
plants. Each time a bee, moth, butterfly or other insect tried to get at the pollen (花粉) in the small yellow flowers, they’d make a note.
It was part of an unusual experiment. Some plots of mustard plants were surrounded by pipes that released ozone and nitrogen oxides — polluting gases produced around power plants and conventional cars. Other plots had pipes releasing normal air.
The results shocked the scientists. Plants covered by pollutants were visited by up to 70
percent fewer insects overall, and their flowers received 90 percent fewer visits compared with
those in unpolluted plots. “We didn’t expect it to be quite as dramatic as that,” says study coauthor Robbie Girling, an entomologist at the University of Southern Queensland in Australia.
A growing body of research suggests that pollution can disturb insect attraction to plants — at a time when many insect populations are already suffering deep declines due to agricultural
chemicals, habitat loss and climate change. Around 75 percent of wild flowering plants and
around 35 percent of food crops rely on animals to move pollen around, so that plants can fertilize one another and form seeds. The black mustard plants used in the experiment exhibited a drop of 14 percent to 31 percent in successful pollination (授粉) as measured by the number of seedpods, seeds per pod and seedpod weight from plants surrounded by dirty air.
“This research is still young,” says Jeff Riffell, a neuroscientist at the University of
Washington. “We’re only touching the tip of the iceberg in terms of how these effects are
influencing these insects. We’ll work out how strong and widespread these effects of pollution are, and how they operate.”
28 .What does the author describe in Paragraph 1
A .The harmony of plants and bees.
B .The vast biodiversity in the fields.
C .The procedure of an experiment.
D .The cooperation among ecologists.
29 .Why is the data used in Paragraph 3 and Paragraph 4
A .To show the bad effects of pollution.
B .To praise ecologists’ efforts.
C .To contrast with the previous results.
D .To criticize an accepted fact.
30 .Which aspect of the research does Jeff Riffell talk about
A .The achievement. B .The direction.
C .The method. D .The application.
31 .What can be a suitable title for the text
A .Pollutants Influence Power Plants
B .Air Pollution is Bad for Pollination
C .Ecologists Work to Protect Insects
D .Poisonous Gases Threaten Humans
D
In his 1936 work How to Win Friends and Influence People, Dale Carnegie wrote: “I have come to the conclusion that there is only one way to get the best of an argument — and that is to avoid it.” This dislike for arguments is common, but it depends on a mistaken view of arguments that causes problems for our personal and social lives — and in many ways misses the point of arguing in the first place.
Carnegie would be right if arguments were fights, which is how we often think of them.
Like physical fights, verbal (言语的) fights can leave both sides bloodied. Even when you win, you end up no better off. You would be feeling almost as bad if arguments were even just
competitions — like, say, tennis tournaments. Pairs of opponents hit the ball back and forth until one winner comes out from all who entered. Everybody else loses. This kind of thinking explains why so many people try to avoid arguments.
However, there are ways to win an argument every time. When you state your position,
formulate (阐述) an argument for what you claim and honestly ask yourself whether your
argument is any good. When you talk with someone who takes a stand, ask them to give you a
reason for their view and spell out their argument fully. Assess its strength and weakness. Raise objections (异议) and listen carefully to their replies. This method will require effort, but practice
will make you better at it.
These tools can help you win every argument — not in the unhelpful sense of beating your opponents but in the better sense of learning about what divides people, learning why they
disagree with us and learning to talk and work together with them. If we readjust our view of arguments — from a verbal fight or tennis game to a reasoned exchange through which we all gain respect and understanding from each other — then we change the very nature of what it means to “win” an argument.
32 .What is the author’s attitude toward Carnegie’s understanding of argument
A .Positive. B .Disapproving.
C .Respectful. D .Ambiguous.
33 .Why do many people try to avoid arguments
A .They fear being ignored.
B .They lack debating skills.
C .They may feel bad even if they win.
D .They are not confident in themselves.
34 .What does the underlined phrase “spell out” in paragraph 3 probably mean
A .Explain. B .Defend.
C .Conclude. D .Repeat.
35 .What is the key to “winning” an argument according to the author
A .Sense of logic. B .Understanding from both sides.
C .Proper manners. D .Solid supporting evidence.
第二节(共 5 小题;每小题 2.5 分, 满分 12.5 分)
根据下面短文,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。
Many people struggle to say “no” to requests from others, both in the workplace and their personal lives. Saying no isn’t always negative. 36 Declining the tasks we can’t handle is an exercise in self-care. It’s about respecting our own time, energy, and personal limits, and
being respected in return. It’s also about reducing stress and learning how to set boundaries.
However, saying no isn’t easy for some people. 37 For these people, a “soft no”
can be a good start. This involves providing an explanation, without being overly apologetic. For instance, “Thank you so much for asking me to work on this project. It sounds really interesting, but I can’t handle this right now.” Over time, as confidence grows, use “hard no” responses. A
“hard no” is firm, clear, and brief. For example, “No, thank you,” or “Thank you, but I’m not available this week.” 38
Learning to say no doesn’t mean we can’t ever say yes. However, we should only accept requests that match with our personal values, make us feel good, and for which we truly have the time and energy.
39 A recent study showed that the negative consequences of declining requests are less than we think, especially in social situations. Furthermore, we tend to overestimate how others will react to our refusals. In fact, most reactions are far more positive or neutral than we anticipate.
Of course, having difficulty saying no isn’t a mental illness. If it keeps bothering you,
however, it might be a sign of something deeper. This behavior can reveal low self-esteem (自尊) or personality disorders. 40
A .In these cases, seeking treatment can allow the person to deal with any underlying issues.
B .Perhaps we worry unnecessarily about saying no to other people.
C .We struggle with refusal because we value our friendship.
D .Saying yes to everything is a people-pleasing behavior.
E .It can be a skill that requires intentional practice.
F .Saying no gets easier the more we practice.
G .It can be a healthy thing.

People may misunderstand what they used to be familiar with.
One day a professor was invited to our school, teaching us management principles in a school hall. As she a glass of water, we expected she’d ask the
“glass half-empty or glass half-full” question. , the professor asked, “How heavy is this glass of water I’m holding ”
Excitedly, all of us out answers ranging from eight ounces to a couple of pounds.
“In my view,” she replied, “the absolute of this glass doesn’t matter. It all depends on how long I hold it. For a minute or two, it’s fairly light. For an hour straight, my arm might
a little. For a day straight, my arm will likely feel completely paralyzed, me to drop the glass to the floor. In each case, the glass doesn’t change, the longer I hold it, the heavier it feels to me.”
Seeing our favorable expression, she continued, “Your stresses and worries in life are very much like this glass of water. Think about them for a while and happens. Think about them a bit longer and you begin to ache a little. Think about them all day long, and you’ll feel
paralyzed — of doing anything else you drop them.”
It’s important to remember to your stresses and worries. No matter what happens during the day, as early in the evening as you can, put all your burdens down. Don’t carry them
through the night and into the next day with you. If you still feel the weight of yesterday’s stress, it’s a strong sign that it’s time to put the down.

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。
“Du Fu: China’s Greatest Poet”, 56 (release) on BBC as well as CCTV-9, has
attracted worldwide attention. Praised as “China’s greatest poet”, Du Fu 57 (introduce) to the Western world in documentary form for the first time in April 2020.
The documentary uses “the greatest” 58 (describe) Du Fu, not only in China, but also in the field of world literature, 59 (put) him alongside Dante and Shakespeare, and pointing out that there is no such figure in the West as Du Fu. It also explores Du Fu 60 visiting modern China, following his life and footsteps through places like Xi’an, Chengdu, and Changsha.
The documentary also gives highly favorable 61 (recognize) to the long tradition of Chinese poetry, which is earlier than Homer’s Iliad and The Odyssey, and shows that the period
62 Emperor Xuanzong ruled China in the Tang Dynasty was the 63 (bright) era of culture and the most splendid era of poetry. At that time, there was no civilization in the world that possessed such elegance and culture as the Chinese civilization.
From 64 Englishman’s point of view, historian Michael Wood tries to find traces (踪迹) of Du Fu in a 65 (rapid) changing China, where poets have always been seen as the trusted recorders ofthe people’s hearts and the nation’s history. “And for the Chinese, Du Fu is more than a poet,” said Wood. “For generations, he has been the protector of the moral
conscience of the nation.”

I’d always been told to take care of my older brother, Brian, who was born weak and small. I’d often tie his shoes or prepare another glass of water for him. My mom saw my larger size and strong body as a sign that I was to be a kind of guardian angel (守护天使) for Brian. However,
that was not the case.
One day our school sponsored a pumpkin-carving contest. First prize was $100, and I knew just how I would spend it. There was a brand-new game I was dying to own. So I decided the first place bonus definitely had to land in my pocket.
When I had to carve the perfect pumpkin I’d picked out, it dawned on me that with my big clumsy fingers I’d surely screw it up (搞砸). I thought of Brian’s smaller, delicate hands and knew he was the man for the job. I immediately begged Brian. Unexpectedly, he asked for a cut. That
was fifty-fifty. Quickly doing the math in my head, I figured out even if I split (分摊) the first prize, I’d still have enough cash for the game. So I gave in to Brian’s demands. With skillful hands Brian carved the perfect face, and now we had the best pumpkin ever.
Then the unexpected happened: We came in second. Unfortunately, second prize was only $50, and I needed every penny of that to buy the game. The day of the awards ceremony, the
principal handed over the money to me because Brian was home, sick with cold.
If he really wanted to win, he would have been here today, I thought to myself, justifying
stealing the cash from under poor Brian’s runny nose. With hardly a thought, I ran to the store and bought my dream game. That night when Brian asked if we had won, I denied, afraid to look into his eyes.
The whole thing was never mentioned again until the day when Brian was packing for
college. I played my usual role in helping him pack when I came across an old album filled with photos he had taken as the school photographer.

【原文】M: Hooray! The rain stopped and the sun finally came out!
W: Good. Then we can continue our plan to go hiking this afternoon. Amy will be very happy about it.
M: Yeah. She would be very disappointed if we couldn’t make it to the countryside.
5 .A
【原文】W: We’ve only got an hour before we finish work, and I’m wondering whether you want to play basketball afterwards.

【原文】W: Mark, you always sit down and watch TV at weekends. Don’t you think it’s boring
M: I am usually busy with work. It is a kind of relaxation for me.
W: Of course, it’s your business, but you should have better recreation than watching TV. You should get out of the house, just like me.
M: How do you usually spend the weekends
W: Well, I do mountain hiking on Saturday, and I go windsurfing with my friends on Sunday.
M: The windsurfing must be attractive. I’ve always wanted to try it.

【原文】M: You are always taking a cat nap! What did you do at night
W: My apartment is near the road, and there are so many cars passing by every morning. They make so much noise. I often can’t sleep well.
M:That’s terrible! Do you have any solutions
W: Actually no.
M: Well, how about changing the apartment
W: I don’t think it’s a good idea. The rent for my apartment is very low and it is near the bus station. It’s convenient to go to work.
M: No wonder you get to the office so early every day. Do other people also complain about it
W: Yes, most of them do.
M: Why not discuss it with your neighbors I’m sure they could come up with some good ideas.

M: Of course. Where are you trying to go
W: I need to get to Oxford for a university visit. There are so many options here. The 9:15 train seems perfect — it arrives at 10:30.
M: Actually, that’s not your best choice. The 9:15 requires you to change trains at Reading Station. If you take the 9:30 instead, it goes directly to Oxford.
W: Oh, thank you. I definitely prefer a direct train. Which platform does the 9:30 leave from
M: Let me check... It sets off from Platform 4. You’ll need to go through the underground tunnel to get there.
W: How long does the journey take
M: It takes exactly one hour, so you’ll arrive at 10:30, the same as the other option, but without the trouble of changing trains.
W: That’s wonderful! And where can I buy tickets
M: There are ticket machines near the entrance, or you can use the ticket office. The machines are usually faster.
W: OK. I will go with the former. Thank you so much for your help!
M: You’re welcome. Good luck with your university visit!

【原文】W: Welcome to Education Update. This is Cathy. We have Robert Hall from
Mountainside High School with us today. Hello, Mr. Hall. Could you tell us the service program in your school
M: OK, it goes like this. On certain days each month, adults from the neighborhood sit in class with the students and see what’s going on in the school.
W: That’s interesting. What else can they do
M: They can also take adult courses in the evenings for both fun and serious learning.
W: What about the students What can they do in the program
M: Well, they can change places with adults and go working on a farm or in a factory or taking care of the housework.
W: Good. This helps them better understand the lives of their parents and know more about their neighborhood.
M: Yes, students have a chance to work in hospitals, nursing homes, libraries and even in government offices.
W: So the school is not only part of the students’ lives, but also part of the neighborhood.
M: That’s exactly what our service program is for.
W: Great. Thank you, Mr. Hall.

W: Here’s your new library card. It will run out one year later from today and allow you to borrow up to 15 books per month. The library is open from 9 a.m. to 7 p.m. every day except
Sundays and public holidays. On the first floor, you’ll find fiction, literature, biography, travel and lifestyle books, gardening books, and cookbooks. There’s also a photocopier for public use.
Copies cost twenty cents each, but I recommend you buy a monthly copier card for $ 10, which gives you 60 copies per month at a reduced price.
On the second floor, you’ll find technology, geography, science books, and children’s
books. There’s a small children’s recreation area there as well, and on Saturdays, we hold a story reading morning for young kids.
The third floor has history, maps, newspapers, journals, and arts and humanities books.
We have computers with Internet access on the fourth floor. The computers are free to use, but there’s a two-hour limit. It’s first-come, first-served. Just put your name down on the list if
you want to use one. If you want to use your own computer in the library, we have free wireless access as well.
That’s about it. Do you have any questions

这是一篇记叙文。主要讲述了 61 岁的西恩 戴维斯历经 42 天艰辛完成跨大西洋划船,53 岁接触划船,受女性冒险家启发,还计划 64 岁挑战更多冒险。
24.细节理解题。根据第一段中“In March 2021, she was one of the 12 crew members who set out on the 3,000-mile journey from Tenerife to battle sun, salt and fierce currents. “We would take
turns rowing in three-hour interval and only sleep for an hour or so every six hours,” she says.
“For the first 15 days, I was seasick, so I hardly ate anything. I was just rowing and collapsing. I
went through some pretty dark times.”(2021 年 3 月,她与 12 名船员一起踏上了这段长达
3000 英里的旅程,从特内里费岛出发,面对着烈日、盐雾和汹涌的海流。她说:“我们会每隔三个小时轮流划桨,每六小时只睡一个小时左右。在最初的 15 天里,我总是晕船,所以几乎什么都没吃。我一直在划桨,然后就倒下。我经历了相当艰难的时刻。”)”可知,关于戴维斯横渡大洋的经历,我们了解到她在整个过程中遭遇了很多困难。故选 A 项。
25 .推理判断题。根据第三段中“Attracted by its size and appearance, she spoke to the crew and was encouraged to do a trial run. “Barely had I got on the water when I knew I’d never get enough of it,” she says. “Feeling your whole body working and the fresh air on your skin is amazing.”(被其大小和外观所吸引,她与船员交谈,并被鼓励进行一次试航。“我刚一踏上水面,就知道自己永远无法停止这项活动了,”她说,“感受到全身肌肉的运动,呼吸着清新的空气,真是太美妙了。”)”可推知,戴维斯对她第一次划船的经历印象深刻。故选 D 项。
26 .细节理解题。根据第四段“It wasn’t until 2017, though, that her Atlantic plans were born.
Suffering from a herniated disc, she was only able to drag herself out of bed. “I began thinking of things I could look forward to after I had surgery,” she recalls. “One day I was reading about
women adventurers when it hit me that once better, I would row across an ocean.” (不过,直到
2017 年,她的大西洋航行计划才萌生。由于患有椎间盘突出症,她只能拖着身体从床上爬起来。“我开始思考手术后自己能期待的事情,”她回忆道,“有一天,我在阅读有关女性探险家的资料时,突然想到一旦身体恢复得更好,我就能驾船横渡海洋了。”)”可知,一些女性探险家的故事促使戴维斯横渡大洋。故选 A 项。
27 .推理判断题。根据第二段中“But after 42 days on the water, Davies reached Antigua to
become one of the only six women in the world over the age of 60 to have rowed across an
ocean.( 但经过 42 天的航行,戴维斯抵达了安提瓜岛,成为了世界上年龄超过 60 岁驾船横渡大洋的仅有的六名女性之一。)” 以及最后一段““In June, I’m planning to break a few world records by rowing around the UK when I’m 64, and I want to motorcycle through the Himalayas
later in the year. After all, we need things to look back on,” she says.(“6 月份的时候,我计划在64 岁时绕着英国划船,打破一些世界纪录,而且今年晚些时候我还想骑摩托车穿越喜马拉雅山脉。毕竟,我们需要一些值得回顾的事情。”她说。)”可知,她 61 岁克服重重困难完成跨大西洋划船,还计划 64 岁划船环游英国破世界纪录、骑摩托穿越喜马拉雅,充分体现了她意志坚强(strong-willed)和有抱负(ambitious)的品质。故选 D 项。

这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了空气污染对植物及授粉昆虫的影响。
28 .细节理解题。根据第一段“In the summers of 2018 and 2019, ecologist James Ryalls and his colleagues would go out to a field near Reading in southern England to stare at the insects flying
around black mustard plants. Each time a bee, moth, butterfly or other insect tried to get at the
pollen (花粉) in the small yellow flowers, they’d make a note.(2018 年和 2019 年的夏天,生态学家詹姆斯 里亚尔斯与他的同事们会前往英格兰南部雷丁市附近的一片田地,观察围绕着黑芥属植物飞舞的昆虫。每当蜜蜂、飞蛾、蝴蝶或其他昆虫试图采集小黄花上的花粉时,他们都会做好记录)”以及第二段“It was part of an unusual experiment. (这是一项非同寻常实验的一部分)”可知,第一段作者描述了一个实验的步骤。故选 C 项。
29.推理判断题。根据第三段“Plants covered by pollutants were visited by up to 70 percent fewer insects overall, and their flowers received 90 percent fewer visits compared with those in
unpolluted plots. (受污染物覆盖的植物整体上吸引的昆虫数量减少了 70% ,并且与未受污染地块的植物相比,其花朵获得的访花次数更是减少了 90%)”及第四段“The black mustard
plants used in the experiment exhibited a drop of 14 percent to 31 percent in successful pollination (授粉) as measured by the number of seedpods, seeds per pod and seedpod weight from plants
surrounded by dirty air. (实验中使用的黑芥菜植株在受污染空气环绕的环境下,通过种子荚数量、单荚种子数及种子荚重量衡量,其成功授粉率下降了 14%至 31%)”可推知,作者通过例举一系列数据表明污染的气体会干扰植物对昆虫的吸引力,这是空气污染的恶劣影响。故选A 项。
30 .推理判断题。根据最后一段中“We’ll work out how strong and widespread these effects of pollution are, and how they operate. (我们将研究污染影响的强度和普遍程度,以及这些影响是如何产生的)”可推知,Jeff Riffell 谈论的是该研究的方向。故选 B 项。
31.主旨大意题。根据第三段“Plants covered by pollutants were visited by up to 70 percent fewer insects overall, and their flowers received 90 percent fewer visits compared with those in
unpolluted plots. (受污染物覆盖的植物吸引的昆虫总数减少了高达 70%,其花朵的受访次数比无污染区域的植物减少了 90%)” 以及根据第四段“The black mustard plants used in the
experiment exhibited a drop of 14 percent to 31 percent in successful pollination (授粉) as
measured by the number of seedpods, seeds per pod and seedpod weight from plants surrounded
by dirty air.(实验中使用的黑芥菜植株在受污染空气环绕的环境下,通过种子荚数量、单荚种
子数及种子荚重量衡量,其成功授粉率下降了 14%至 31%)”可知,文章围绕空气污染对昆虫访花、植物授粉的负面影响展开实验与论述, 核心是证明空气污染会破坏植物与昆虫间的授粉互动,进而危害生态。由此可知,文章的最佳标题为“空气污染对植物授粉不利”。故选 B项。
32 .B 33 .C 34 .A 35 .B
这是一篇议论文。主要讲的是作者反驳卡耐基应避免争论的观点,指出人们因将争论视为争斗而回避它,真正的“赢”是通过理性交流实现相互理解。
32 .推理判断题。根据第一段中“This dislike for arguments is common, but it depends on a
mistaken view of arguments that causes problems for our personal and social lives — and in many ways misses the point of arguing in the first place.(对于争论的这种厌恶是很常见的,但这种厌恶源于一种错误的观念,这种观念给我们的个人和社交生活带来了问题——而且在很多方面都偏离了争论本身的意义。)”可知,作者用转折词 but和形容词 mistaken 直接表明,卡耐基对争论的理解是错误的,因此作者持不赞同的态度。故选 B 项。
33 .细节理解题。根据第二段中“Even when you win, you end up no better off. You would be feeling almost as bad if arguments were even just competitions — like, say, tennis tournaments. Pairs of opponents hit the ball back and forth until one winner comes out from all who entered. Everybody else loses. This kind of thinking explains why so many people try to avoid
arguments.(即使你赢了,最终你也不会有什么好处。即便如此,你也会感觉几乎和输的一样糟糕。如果争论仅仅是一种竞赛——比如像网球比赛那样——那么双方相互击球,直到决出胜者,而所有参赛者都会失败。这种思维方式解释了为什么很多人会试图避免争论。)”可知,很多人会尽量避免争论是因为无论胜负,他们都会感到难受。故选 C 项。
34.词句猜测题。根据第三段中“However, there are ways to win an argument every time. When you state your position, formulate (阐述) an argument for what you claim and honestly ask
yourself whether your argument is any good.(然而,每次都能赢得争论的方法是有的。当你陈述自己的立场时,要为你的主张制定一个论据,并诚实地问问自己你的论据是否站得住
脚。)” 以及划线短语句中“When you talk with someone who takes a stand, ask them to give you a reason for their view and their argument fully.(当你与持有明确立场的人交谈时,请让他们向你说明其观点的理由,并完整地 他们的论点。)”可知,此处指的是让他们向你说明其观点的理由,并完整地阐述他们的论点,spell out 在此处意为详细解释、清楚说明,与 A 选项explain“解释” 同义。故选 A 项。
35 .推理判断题。根据最后一段“These tools can help you win every argument — not in the
unhelpful sense of beating your opponents but in the better sense of learning about what divides
people, learning why they disagree with us and learning to talk and work together with them. If we readjust our view of arguments — from a verbal fight or tennis game to a reasoned exchange
through which we all gain respect and understanding from each other — then we change the very
nature of what it means to “win” an argument.(这些方法能够帮助你赢得每一场争论——并非
以击败对手为目的的那种“无益的” 的胜利,而是以一种更好的方式取胜,即了解人们之间的分歧、了解他们为何与我们意见相左,并学会与他们交流和合作。如果我们重新审视对争论的看法——将其从言语上的争斗或网球比赛转变为一种经过理性的交流,通过这种方式我们都能从彼此身上获得尊重和理解——那么我们就改变了“赢得争论” 的真正含义。)”可推知,根据作者的观点,“赢得”一场争论的关键是从双方角度理解问题。故选 B 项。

36 .前文“Many people struggle to say “no” to requests from others, both in the workplace and
their personal lives. Saying no isn’t always negative.( 许多人无论是在工作场合还是个人生活中,都难以拒绝他人的请求。说“不”并不总是意味着是负面的行为。)”提到“说不并不总是负面的” ,后文“It’s about respecting our own time, energy, and personal limits, and being
respected in return. It’s also about reducing stress and learning how to set boundaries.( 这涉及到尊重我们自己的时间、精力和个人限度,并且也意味着得到他人的尊重。这还关乎减轻压力以及学会设定界限。)”列举了说不的诸多健康益处(自我关怀、尊重边界、减少压力)。G选项“It can be a healthy thing.( 这可以是一件健康的事。)”完美承上启下,衔接前后逻辑。故选 G 项。

(
,
)38 .前文“For these people, a “soft no” can be a good start. This involves providing an explanation without being overly apologetic. For instance, “Thank you so much for asking me to work on this project. It sounds really interesting, but I can’t handle this right now.” Over time, as confidence
grows, use “hard no” responses.( 对于这些人来说,一个“软拒绝”是一个良好的开端。这包括给出解释,但不要过于歉意。例如,“非常感谢您邀请我参与这个项目。听起来真的很有趣,但我现在无法处理这项工作。”随着时间的推移,随着信心的增长,可以使用“硬拒绝”方
式。)”详细讲解了从“软拒绝”到“硬拒绝” 的进阶练习方法。F 选项“Saying no gets easier the more we practice.( 我们练习得越多,说不就会变得越容易。)”作为本段结尾,总结了练习带来的效果,逻辑通顺。故选 F 项。
39.后文“A recent study showed that the negative consequences of declining requests are less than we think, especially in social situations.( 最近的一项研究表明,拒绝请求所带来的负面影响要小于我们的预期,尤其是在社交场合中。)”用研究结果证明:拒绝的负面后果远没有我们想象的严重,我们高估了他人的反应。B 选项“Perhaps we worry unnecessarily about saying no to other people.( 也许我们对拒绝他人这件事过度担忧了。)”精准概括了本段核心,引出后文的研究佐证。故选 B 项。
40 .前文“If it keeps bothering you, however, it might be a sign of something deeper. This
behavior can reveal low self-esteem (自尊) or personality disorders.( 然而,如果这种状况一直困扰着你,那它可能表明存在更深层次的问题。这种行为可能反映出自尊心低下或人格障碍。)”指出,如果难以拒绝一直困扰你,可能是低自尊或人格障碍等深层问题的信号。A 选项“In these cases, seeking treatment can allow the person to deal with any underlying issues.( 在这些情况下,寻求治疗可以帮助人们解决任何潜在问题。)”给出了对应的解决办法,作为全文结尾自然收尾。故选 A 项。

54 .考查动词短语辨析。句意:重要的是要记住要放下你的压力和忧虑。A. turn down 拒绝; B. get over 克服;C. hold back 抑制,隐瞒;D. let go of 放下,松开。全文核心观点就是“放 下压力” ,前文多次出现“drop them”(放下它们)、“put all your burdens down”(放下所有负 担),可知,此处 let go of 与这些表达语义完全一致。故选 D 项。
55 .考查名词词义辨析。句意:如果你仍然感到昨天压力的重压,这就是一个强烈的信号,表明是时候放下这个“杯子”了。A. feelings 感受;B. regret 遗憾;C. glass 杯子;D. emotions情绪。通读全文可知,教授全程用“水杯” 比喻压力,因此结尾用“是时候把杯子放下了”来收束全文,既呼应开头的实验,又让哲理更生动形象。故选 C 项。

本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍纪录片《杜甫:中国最伟大的诗人》的内容、评价及其向世界传播杜甫与中国诗词文化的意义。
56 .考查非谓语动词。句意:《杜甫:中国最伟大的诗人》在 BBC 和央视纪录频道播出后,引发了全球关注。此处为非谓语动词作定语,“Du Fu: China’s Greatest Poet”与 release 为被动关系,所以用过去分词 released 。故填 released。
57 .考查动词时态和语态。句意:被誉为“ 中国最伟大的诗人” ,杜甫于 2020 年 4 月首次以纪录片形式被介绍给西方世界。此处为谓语动词,根据时间状语 in April 2020 可知,描述过去动作,且 introduce 与主语之间为被动关系,所以此处应用一般过去时的被动语态,主语Du Fu 是第三人称单数,所以用 was introduced 。故填 was introduced。
58.考查非谓语动词。句意:这部纪录片用“最伟大”来形容杜甫,不仅在中国,也在世界文学领域。此处为固定结构 use sth. to do sth. ,意为“用某物做某事” ,所以用动词不定式 to
describe 作目的状语。故填 to describe。
59.考查非谓语动词。句意:这部纪录片用“最伟大”来形容杜甫,不仅在中国,也在世界文学领域,将他与但丁、莎士比亚并列,并指出西方没有可与杜甫比肩的人物。此处为非谓语动词作状语,与pointing 并列,主语the documentary 与put为主动关系,所以用现在分词putting。故填 putting。
60 .考查介词。句意:它还通过走访当代中国,追寻杜甫的生平与足迹,途经西安、成都、长沙等地,对其进行探寻。此处表示“通过、凭借” ,后接动名词 visiting ,所以用介词 by。

61.考查名词。句意:这部纪录片还高度认可中国源远流长的诗歌传统,其历史早于荷马的《伊利亚特》和《奥德赛》。此处作 gives 的宾语,用 recognize 的名词形式 recognition 意为“认可” 。不可数名词。故填 recognition。
62.考查定语从句。句意:影片还展现了唐代唐玄宗统治时期是文化最昌盛、诗歌最辉煌的时代。此处引导定语从句,先行词 the period 表示时间,在从句中作时间状语,所以用关系副词 when 。故填 when。
63.考查形容词最高级。句意:影片还展现了唐代唐玄宗统治时期是文化最昌盛、诗歌最辉煌的时代。根据后面的 the most splendid era 可知,此处应用形容词最高级,所以用
brightest 。故填 brightest。
64 .考查冠词。句意:从一位英国人的视角出发,历史学家迈克尔·伍德试图在快速变化的中国寻找杜甫的踪迹。Englishman 为可数名词单数,空前无限定词,所以此处使用冠词,结合句意,此处表示“一位英国人”为泛指,且 Englishman 是以元音音素开头的单词,所以用不定冠词 an。故填 an。
65 .考查副词。句意:从一位英国人的视角出发,历史学家迈克尔·伍德试图在快速变化的中国寻找杜甫的踪迹。此处修饰现在分词 changing,用 rapid 的副词形式 rapidly 意为“快速地”。故填 rapidly。
66 .One possible version:
My After-school Social Practice Experience
This semester, our school organized various after-school social practice activities. I took part in the agricultural labor experience and volunteered at a local nursing home.
On the farm, I learned to plant vegetables and harvest crops, which made me realize how hard farmers work. At the nursing home, I chatted with the elderly and helped them clean rooms, bringing warmth to both of us.
These experiences taught me the value of labor and the joy of helping others. I also
understood that social practice connects us with the real world, making us more responsible and thankful. It was truly a meaningful journey.
67 .Paragraph 1:
I was enjoying the photos when one caught my eye. It was a picture of the pumpkin we had carved together. Underneath, Brian had written, “My first real win with my brother. Even if we
didn’t get first, it was a victory because we worked as a team.” Seeing those words, a wave of guilt washed over me. I remembered how I had selfishly taken all the money and lied to him. I realized how much I had let him down. I turned to Brian, ready to confess everything.
Paragraph 2:
“You actually knew and didn’t say anything ” I was shocked. Brian just smiled gently and said, “I always knew. But I also knew that you needed that game more than the money at that time. And I was proud of our teamwork, not the prize. I hoped one day you’d understand the real meaning of winning together.” His words made me feel even more ashamed. I apologized
sincerely, vowing to make it up to him. From then on, I truly understood my role as his guardian angel and the importance of true brotherhood.
