My grandmother grew up in a world different from me. She experienced many things in her long life.
Though she never told stories, her stories were in the way she ate — she savored (品味) her food, cherished (珍惜) it. Often she would be the first to sit at the dinner table, and the last to leave. Food had been really scarce (缺乏) when she grew up.
Her stories were in the way she handed me lucky money. From a young age, my grandmother was brought up to understand the importance of hard work and the necessary of saving. Every Chinese New Year, I would be handed, or sent, a small red envelope that contained money, but never more than twenty dollars. When I was young , I didn’t understand why my grandmother gave me such a small amount of money. As I grew older, I realized that she wasn’t teaching me about money, but about tradition and hard work and family. The money was insignificant. I would probably spend it on any toy that I would lose soon after; it was the meaning behind her gift that mattered. It was her saying, “ I love you; I am your family and I want you to work hard as your family has before you.”
My grandmother’s stories were lessons. But they were never told in words. From the time that I was very young, up until she could barely remember my name, I remember her calling me “good girl”. Those two little words, in the course of my growing up, were a constant reminder that I was still so young, with still so far to go.
Now my grandmother is gone, but I see her every day. I see her in the women around me and in the mirror. She lives with me, inside me, and in the legacies(遗产)that I will create. And I know she would be proud.
24. The Author’s grandmother spent so much time eating at the table because ________.
A. she had no teeth B. she had nothing to do
C. she was preparing to clear the table D. she really wanted to enjoy the food
25. What did the author learn from the way her grandmother gave her lucky money
A. Her grandmother didn’t have much money.
B. Her grandmother preferred boys to girls.
C. It was a shame to accept others’ money.
D. It was important for her to work hard.
26. What did the author realize hearing her grandmother call her “good girl”
A. She was really a good girl.
B. She needed to continually improve herself.
C. She should be proud of her manners and behaviors.
D. She was always a good girl in her grandmother’s eyes.
27. What can we know about the author’s grandmother after reading the passage
A. She loved telling stories.
B. She had never worked in her life.
C. She set a great example for the author.
D. She was a mean woman with old-fashioned values.
C
Teenagers who spend more time on after-school activities and less than two hours of screen time after school are more mentally healthy, according to a study published in the journal Preventive Medicine.
The study used information collected from more than 28,000 seventh-grade Canadian students between 2014 and 2018. The students first answered questions about their usage of screen time after school, including how much time they spent watching TV or something else. Then, students reported how many days they had taken part in after-school activities such as sports or arts programmes. After that, researchers asked students to describe their state of mind. For example, when given a statement such as “I start most days thinking that I will have a good day”, they could choose to what level they agreed with it on a scale (等级).
Researchers said in the study some of the results were expected. Students with no after-school activities usually had high levels of screen time, for example. And they expected girls would score higher on negative indicators (消极指标)of mental health. as earlier research had found that they tended to have higher levels of anxiety compared to boys.
What was noteworthy, researchers say, is that even among students who took part in after-school activities, 46% still went beyond the recommended screen time of two hours. At the same time, 67% of students who didn’t take part in after-school activities also had more than two hours of screen time. Together, this suggests high screen time among teenagers generally.
“The findings suggest that after-school activities are valuable for the happy growing of teenagers,” the study said. “While past studies have proved the importance of after-school activities for social and academic development, the present study shows their importance for good mental health results.”
28. Which of the following came last when students took part in the new study
A. Talking about their lifestyles.
B. Introducing their after-school activities.
C. Reporting their mental states on a scale.
D. Answering questions about screen time use.
29. What do the researchers find about teenage girls
A. They often have higher levels of satisfaction.
B. Few of them take part in after-school activities.
C. Anxiety has become a serious problem among them.
D. Too much screen time may be more harmful to them.
30. What does the author want to show by using the numbers in paragraph 4
A. Earlier findings about screen time are wrong.
B. High screen time is common among teenagers.
C. No after-school activities mean no screen time.
D. Screens attract teenagers more than after-school activities do.
31. Why are after-school activities so important according to the new study
A. They are good for teenagers’ physical health.
B. They help to improve teenagers’ mental health.
C. They encourage teenagers’ social development.
D. They allow teenagers to become better learners.
D
The climate crisis may lead the human race to shrink in size, as mammals with smaller frames appear better able to deal with rising global temperatures, a leading fossil expert has said.
Professor Steve Brusatte, a palaeontologist (古生物学者) at the University of Edinburgh, suggested that the way in which other mammals have previously responded to periods of climate change could offer an insight into humans’ future. He compared the potential problem of people as comparable to that of early horses, which became smaller in body size as temperatures rose around 55 million years ago.
Writing in The Rise and Reign of the Mammals, Brusatte notes that animals in warmer parts of the world today are often smaller than those in colder areas, an ecological principle known as Bergmann’s rule. “The reasons are not entirely understood, but it is probably, in part, because smaller animals have a higher surface area relative to their volume than bigger animals and can thus improve the dissipation of the extra heat,” he writes.
Brusatte said that becoming smaller was “a common way that mammals deal with climate change”. He added, “That’s not to say every species of mammal would get smaller, but it seems to be a common survival trick of mammals when temperatures rise pretty quickly. That does raise the question: If temperatures do rise really quickly, might humans get smaller And I think that’s certainly reasonable.”
However, not all experts agree that rising temperature causes mammals to shrink. Professor Adrian Lister, of the Natural History Museum in London, said the relationship shown by the recent human remains study is weak. “We are not really controlled by natural selection,” he said. “If that was going to happen, you’d need to find large people dying before they could reproduce because of climate warming. That is not happening in today’s world. We wear clothes, we have got heating, we have got air conditioning if it is too hot.”
32. What may climate change do to human beings according to Brusatte
A. Evolve smaller figures. B. Threaten their health.
C. Migrate to colder places. D. Lead to the extinction.
33. Which of the following statements is correct according to the text
A. Every species of mammal would not get smaller.
B. Cold favors smaller animals while warmth favors larger ones.
C. Larger mammals lose heat more efficiently compared to smaller ones.
D. Reducing body size represents a frequent adaptation strategy for all the animals.
34. What’s Adrian Lister’s attitude towards the recent study
A. Concerned. B. Approving. C. Reserved. D. Doubtful.
35. What’s the structure of this passage
A. Problem — Analysis — Solution B. Phenomenon — Cause — Effect
C. Central argument — Analysis — Conclusion D. Proposed idea — Evidence — Challenge
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。
Reading books can be a great way to pick up new vocabulary and develop your understanding of a language while enjoying your time. ____36____ But are you feeling confused by what to read Here are some useful tips for you.

Children’s books can be a great place to start with. ____37____ His books are written in perfect rhyme (押韵) and they are all very funny. Starting with something like this means you are more likely to finish the book and want to read more.
____38____ This book isn’t too difficult and if you’ve seen the film, it may be easier to follow. If you like reading about historical events, Anne Holm’s I am David is a good read.

My last piece of advice is to read something that interests you. Look at the short summary of the book on the back cover and see if it looks like something that you will enjoy. Think about the type that is in your own language and find that type in English. ____40____
A. For example, Dr Seuss’s books are sure to make you laugh.
B. All in all, the key to success is choosing the right book for you.
C. It means reading books can bring you knowledge as well as fun.
D. How much you can understand a book depends on your vocabulary.
E. You’re more likely to enjoy reading rather than see it as a headache.

Jim sat on the sofa. Mother’s Day was coming up, and he didn’t have a present. “How can I buy a present without any money ” he thought.
Jim picked up the newspaper that was lying on the sofa. He noticed a large advertisement on the front page. The local department store was sponsoring (赞助) a contest. “Tell us why your mom is special and win a shopping spree (疯狂购物) for her,” said the ad.
“This is perfect!” thought Jim. He ran to his room with the newspaper. Taking a pencil and a piece of paper from his desk, he started to write.
“My mom is the best mother in the world. She always makes a delicious lunch for me to take to school, and she never forgets my dessert. She reads as many books to me before bed as I want. She always remembers to check under the bed for monsters. And she gives the best hug, but never in front of my friends, who would laugh at me for hugging my mom.”
Jim liked what he had written. He copied it neatly and got an envelope and a stamp from his dad. He ran to the mailbox with his entry (参赛作品), “Mom will love having a shopping spree,” he thought.
Jim checked the mailbox every day for his prize. Days passed by, and then weeks. Soon it was the day before Mother’s day. Jim still hadn’t heard anything about the contest.
“What am I going to do now ” he wondered. He didn’t win a shopping spree for mum, and he still didn’t have any money. He had to think of something. Jim closed his eyes and scratched his hair and thought so hard that his head began to hurt.
Suddenly a perfect idea occurred to him.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
The next morning, Jim handed his letter to his mom.

My grandmother grew up in a world different from me. She experienced many things in her long life.
Though she never told stories, her stories were in the way she ate — she savored (品味) her food, cherished (珍惜) it. Often she would be the first to sit at the dinner table, and the last to leave. Food had been really scarce (缺乏) when she grew up.
Her stories were in the way she handed me lucky money. From a young age, my grandmother was brought up to understand the importance of hard work and the necessary of saving. Every Chinese New Year, I would be handed, or sent, a small red envelope that contained money, but never more than twenty dollars. When I was young , I didn’t understand why my grandmother gave me such a small amount of money. As I grew older, I realized that she wasn’t teaching me about money, but about tradition and hard work and family. The money was insignificant. I would probably spend it on any toy that I would lose soon after; it was the meaning behind her gift that mattered. It was her saying, “ I love you; I am your family and I want you to work hard as your family has before you.”
My grandmother’s stories were lessons. But they were never told in words. From the time that I was very young, up until she could barely remember my name, I remember her calling me “good girl”. Those two little words, in the course of my growing up, were a constant reminder that I was still so young, with still so far to go.
Now my grandmother is gone, but I see her every day. I see her in the women around me and in the mirror. She lives with me, inside me, and in the legacies(遗产)that I will create. And I know she would be proud.
24. The Author’s grandmother spent so much time eating at the table because ________.
A. she had no teeth B. she had nothing to do
C. she was preparing to clear the table D. she really wanted to enjoy the food
25. What did the author learn from the way her grandmother gave her lucky money
A. Her grandmother didn’t have much money.
B. Her grandmother preferred boys to girls.
C. It was a shame to accept others’ money.
D. It was important for her to work hard.
26. What did the author realize hearing her grandmother call her “good girl”
A. She was really a good girl.
B. She needed to continually improve herself.
C. She should be proud of her manners and behaviors.
D. She was always a good girl in her grandmother’s eyes.
27. What can we know about the author’s grandmother after reading the passage
A. She loved telling stories.
B. She had never worked in her life.
C. She set a great example for the author.
D. She was a mean woman with old-fashioned values.

C
Teenagers who spend more time on after-school activities and less than two hours of screen time after school are more mentally healthy, according to a study published in the journal Preventive Medicine.
The study used information collected from more than 28,000 seventh-grade Canadian students between 2014 and 2018. The students first answered questions about their usage of screen time after school, including how much time they spent watching TV or something else. Then, students reported how many days they had taken part in after-school activities such as sports or arts programmes. After that, researchers asked students to describe their state of mind. For example, when given a statement such as “I start most days thinking that I will have a good day”, they could choose to what level they agreed with it on a scale (等级).
Researchers said in the study some of the results were expected. Students with no after-school activities usually had high levels of screen time, for example. And they expected girls would score higher on negative indicators (消极指标)of mental health. as earlier research had found that they tended to have higher levels of anxiety compared to boys.
What was noteworthy, researchers say, is that even among students who took part in after-school activities, 46% still went beyond the recommended screen time of two hours. At the same time, 67% of students who didn’t take part in after-school activities also had more than two hours of screen time. Together, this suggests high screen time among teenagers generally.
“The findings suggest that after-school activities are valuable for the happy growing of teenagers,” the study said. “While past studies have proved the importance of after-school activities for social and academic development, the present study shows their importance for good mental health results.”
28. Which of the following came last when students took part in the new study
A. Talking about their lifestyles.
B. Introducing their after-school activities.
C. Reporting their mental states on a scale.
D. Answering questions about screen time use.
29. What do the researchers find about teenage girls
A. They often have higher levels of satisfaction.
B. Few of them take part in after-school activities.
C. Anxiety has become a serious problem among them.
D. Too much screen time may be more harmful to them.
30. What does the author want to show by using the numbers in paragraph 4
A. Earlier findings about screen time are wrong.
B. High screen time is common among teenagers.
C. No after-school activities mean no screen time.
D. Screens attract teenagers more than after-school activities do.
31. Why are after-school activities so important according to the new study
A. They are good for teenagers’ physical health.
B. They help to improve teenagers’ mental health.
C. They encourage teenagers’ social development.
D. They allow teenagers to become better learners.
【答案】28. C 29. D 30. B 31. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是说明文。文章主要讲述一项研究结果：放学后花更多的时间在课外活动上并且看电子屏幕的时间少于2个小时的学生的心理更加健康。
【28题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“After that, researchers asked students to describe their state of mind. For example, when given a statement such as “I start most days thinking that I will have a good day”, they could choose to what level they agreed with it on a scale.(之后，研究人员让学生描述自己的心理状态。例如，当看到 “我开始新的一天时，大多会觉得这会是愉快的一天”这类表述时，学生可以在一个等级量表上选择自己对该表述的认同程度)”可知，学生们用量表报告他们的精神状态是最后一步。故选C。
【29题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中“Students with no after-school activities usually had high levels of screen time, for example. And they expected girls would score higher on negative indicators of mental health. as earlier research had found that they tended to have higher levels of anxiety compared to boys.(比如，没有课后活动的学生们经常会有更长的时间面对屏幕。并且他们预料到女孩子们在心理健康的消极指标上得分更高，正如以前的研究发现的那样，相对比男孩来说，她们趋向于更加的焦虑)”可知，长时间面对屏幕对女孩子们的心理健康有更大的影响。故选D。
【30题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段中“Together, this suggests high screen time among teenagers generally.(总之，这表明长时间面对屏幕在青少年之间是很常见的)”可知，在第四段作者用那些数字是为了表明长时间面对电子屏幕的情况在青少年之间是很常见的。故选B。
【31题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段中“While past studies have proved the importance of after-school activities for social and academic development, the present study shows their importance for good mental health results.(尽管以前的研究已经证明课后活动对社会和学术发展的重要性，而现在的研究强调了它们对于好的心理健康结果的重要性)”可知，新的研究表明，课后活动对提高青少年的心理健康很重要。故选B。

The climate crisis may lead the human race to shrink in size, as mammals with smaller frames appear better able to deal with rising global temperatures, a leading fossil expert has said.
Professor Steve Brusatte, a palaeontologist (古生物学者) at the University of Edinburgh, suggested that the way in which other mammals have previously responded to periods of climate change could offer an insight into humans’ future. He compared the potential problem of people as comparable to that of early horses, which became smaller in body size as temperatures rose around 55 million years ago.
Writing in The Rise and Reign of the Mammals, Brusatte notes that animals in warmer parts of the world today are often smaller than those in colder areas, an ecological principle known as Bergmann’s rule. “The reasons are not entirely understood, but it is probably, in part, because smaller animals have a higher surface area relative to their volume than bigger animals and can thus improve the dissipation of the extra heat,” he writes.
Brusatte said that becoming smaller was “a common way that mammals deal with climate change”. He added, “That’s not to say every species of mammal would get smaller, but it seems to be a common survival trick of mammals when temperatures rise pretty quickly. That does raise the question: If temperatures do rise really quickly, might humans get smaller And I think that’s certainly reasonable.”
However, not all experts agree that rising temperature causes mammals to shrink. Professor Adrian Lister, of the Natural History Museum in London, said the relationship shown by the recent human remains study is weak. “We are not really controlled by natural selection,” he said. “If that was going to happen, you’d need to find large people dying before they could reproduce because of climate warming. That is not happening in today’s world. We wear clothes, we have got heating, we have got air conditioning if it is too hot.”
32. What may climate change do to human beings according to Brusatte
A. Evolve smaller figures. B. Threaten their health.
C. Migrate to colder places. D. Lead to the extinction.
33. Which of the following statements is correct according to the text
A. Every species of mammal would not get smaller.
B. Cold favors smaller animals while warmth favors larger ones.
C. Larger mammals lose heat more efficiently compared to smaller ones.
D. Reducing body size represents a frequent adaptation strategy for all the animals.
34. What’s Adrian Lister’s attitude towards the recent study
A. Concerned. B. Approving. C. Reserved. D. Doubtful.
35. What’s the structure of this passage
A. Problem — Analysis — Solution B. Phenomenon — Cause — Effect
C. Central argument — Analysis — Conclusion D. Proposed idea — Evidence — Challenge
【答案】32. A 33. A 34. D 35. D
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。本文主要探讨了气候危机对人类体型可能产生的影响。
【32题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“Professor Steve Brusatte, a palaeontologist (古生物学者) at the University of Edinburgh, suggested that the way in which other mammals have previously responded to periods of climate change could offer an insight into humans’ future. He compared the potential problem of people as comparable to that of early horses, which became smaller in body size as temperatures rose around 55 million years ago. (爱丁堡大学的古生物学家史蒂夫·布鲁萨特教授认为，其他哺乳动物以前对气候变化时期的反应方式可以为我们洞悉人类的未来提供线索。他将人类的潜在问题与早期马的问题进行了比较。随着大约5500万年前气温的升高，早期马的体型变小了)”可知，根据布鲁萨特的说法，气候变化可能会导致人类体型缩小。故选A。
【33题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段“He added, “That’s not to say every species of mammal would get smaller, but it seems to be a common survival trick of mammals when temperatures rise pretty quickly.”(他补充说：这并不是说每一种哺乳动物都会变小，但当气温上升得非常快时，这似乎是哺乳动物常见的生存技巧。)”可知，并不是每一种哺乳动物都会变小。故选A。
【34题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“However, not all experts agree that rising temperature causes mammals to shrink. Professor Adrian Lister, of the Natural History Museum in London, said the relationship shown by the recent human remains study is weak. “We are not really controlled by natural selection,” he said. “If that was going to happen, you’d need to find large people dying before they could reproduce because of climate warming. That is not happening in today’s world. We wear clothes, we have got heating, we have got air conditioning if it is too hot.”(然而，并非所有专家都认为气温上升会导致哺乳动物体型缩小。伦敦自然历史博物馆的阿德里安·利斯特教授表示，最近的人类遗骸研究所显示的关系并不强。他说：“我们并没有真正受到自然选择的控制。如果这种情况真的会发生，你会发现很多人因为气候变暖而在生育之前就死去了。这在当今世界是不会发生的。我们穿衣服，我们有暖气，如果天气太热，我们还有空调。”)”可知，阿德里安·利斯特教授认为最近的人类遗骸研究所显示的随着其后变暖人的体型会变小的这种关系并不强。由此推知，他对于最近的研究持怀疑态度。故选D。
【35题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段“The climate crisis may lead the human race to shrink in size, as mammals with smaller frames appear better able to deal with rising global temperatures, a leading fossil expert has said. (一位著名的化石专家表示，气候危机可能导致人类体型缩小，因为体型较小的哺乳动物似乎更能应对全球气温上升)”可知，文章第一段提出一个观点，即气候危机可能导致人类体型缩小；根据第二段“Professor Steve Brusatte, a palaeontologist (古生物学者) at the University of Edinburgh, suggested that the way in which other mammals have previously responded to periods of climate change could offer an insight into humans’ future. He compared the potential problem of people as comparable to that of early horses, which became smaller in body size as temperatures rose around 55million years ago. (爱丁堡大学的古生物学家史蒂夫·布鲁萨特教授表示，其他哺乳动物此前应对气候变化的方式，或许可以让我们一窥人类的未来。他将人类可能面临的问题与早期马进行了比较，早期马在大约5500万年前气温上升时体型变小了)”和第三段“Writing in The Rise and Reign of the Mammals, Brusatte notes that animals in warmer parts of the world today are often smaller than those in colder areas, an ecological principle known as Bergmann’s rule. (布鲁萨特在《哺乳动物的崛起与统治》一书中写道，如今生活在世界温暖地区的动物通常比生活在寒冷地区的动物体型小，这就是所谓的伯格曼法则)”可知，文章第二、三段给出了支持这一观点的证据；根据最后一段“However, not all experts agree that rising temperature causes mammals to shrink. Professor Adrian Lister, of the Natural History Museum in London, said the relationship shown by the recent human remains study is weak. (然而，并非所有专家都认为气温上升会导致哺乳动物体型缩小。伦敦自然历史博物馆的阿德里安·利斯特教授表示，最近的人类遗骸研究所显示的关系并不强)”可知，文章最后一段对这一观点提出了质疑。因此，文章的结构是：提出观点——证据——质疑。故选D。

Children’s books can be a great place to start with. ____37____ His books are written in perfect rhyme (押韵) and they are all very funny. Starting with something like this means you are more likely to finish the book and want to read more.
____38____ This book isn’t too difficult and if you’ve seen the film, it may be easier to follow. If you like reading about historical events, Anne Holm’s I am David is a good read.
If you’re not quite ready to read a full book, why not try Roald Dahl’s Revolting Rhymes ____39____ Or, try a very short book like one from Roger Hargreaves’s Mr Menand Little Miss series. Although they are intended for young children, they are a good way to pick up some more basic vocabulary.
My last piece of advice is to read something that interests you. Look at the short summary of the book on the back cover and see if it looks like something that you will enjoy. Think about the type that is in your own language and find that type in English. ____40____
A. For example, Dr Seuss’s books are sure to make you laugh.
B. All in all, the key to success is choosing the right book for you.
C. It means reading books can bring you knowledge as well as fun.

【61题详解】

Jim sat on the sofa. Mother’s Day was coming up, and he didn’t have a present. “How can I buy a present without any money ” he thought.
Jim picked up the newspaper that was lying on the sofa. He noticed a large advertisement on the front page. The local department store was sponsoring (赞助) a contest. “Tell us why your mom is special and win a shopping spree (疯狂购物) for her,” said the ad.
“This is perfect!” thought Jim. He ran to his room with the newspaper. Taking a pencil and a piece of paper from his desk, he started to write.
“My mom is the best mother in the world. She always makes a delicious lunch for me to take to school, and she never forgets my dessert. She reads as many books to me before bed as I want. She always remembers to check under the bed for monsters. And she gives the best hug, but never in front of my friends, who would laugh at me for hugging my mom.”
Jim liked what he had written. He copied it neatly and got an envelope and a stamp from his dad. He ran to the mailbox with his entry (参赛作品), “Mom will love having a shopping spree,” he thought.
Jim checked the mailbox every day for his prize. Days passed by, and then weeks. Soon it was the day before Mother’s day. Jim still hadn’t heard anything about the contest.
“What am I going to do now ” he wondered. He didn’t win a shopping spree for mum, and he still didn’t have any money. He had to think of something. Jim closed his eyes and scratched his hair and thought so hard that his head began to hurt.
Suddenly a perfect idea occurred to him.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Sitting down straight on his chair, he began to write the letter in his best handwriting as a Mother’s Day present. “Dear Mom, I’m writing this to tell you that you are the best mother in the world...” With a sincere heart, Jim finished the letter and sealed it in an envelope, his lips curving into a smile.
The next morning, Jim handed his letter to his mom. Finishing reading the letter, his mom gathered him into her arms, her eyes wet due to happiness. “Thank you, my dear!” She cried out with great satisfaction, hugging Jim more tightly. Leaning against his mom’s shoulder, Jim slowly explained why he chose to write a letter as a gift. After hearing the reason, his mom gently ran her fingers through his hair, saying, “To me, your letter is better than a thousand shopping sprees.” Indeed, love should be made known to loved ones.
