My school appeared on the news last week because we had made an important change in our local area. Our class had planted a large garden in what was once only a vacant lot. It was a lot of work but it was all worth it. I got blisters(水泡) from digging, and we all got insect bites, too.
I learned a lot about gardening and collaboration(合作), and then I learned about the media. Our teacher telephoned the TV station and informed them of what we had accomplished. She spoke with the producer. The producer checked with the directors, but they said there were plenty of stories similar to ours. They wanted to know what was special about our particular garden, since many schools plant them.
The teacher explained that, after going on the Internet to learn about the prairie(大草原), we had made a prairie garden. We had gone to a prairie and gotten seeds from the plants, and then we planted them. We did not water the garden, but we did weed it. We decided to let nature water it with rain, since that was how prairies grew in the past. We sent a picture of the garden to the news station. In the picture, the grass was so high that it stood taller than the fourth grade students.
As a result, the producer sent a reporter to our school. He interviewed the headmaster and asked him many questions about the garden. After that, they interviewed us, and we explained to them what we had learned through this project.
That night, we watched the news, and there we were. The news reporter told our story. It was only two minutes long, but it was us. We were famous. All that work, all those blisters, it was worth it. We knew that when we saw the garden every day, but now we knew that the whole city thought so, too.
4. What seemed to be the TV directors’ initial reaction to the garden
A. They were excited. B. They were surprised.
C. They were worried. D. They were uninterested.
5. What is special about the garden
A. Weeds were allowed to spread naturally.
B. The grass grew faster than common grass.
C. The seeds came from the plants of a prairie.
D. Underground water was used for the plants.
6. What does the underlined word “that” refer to in the last paragraph
A. We got blisters on our hands. B. Our hard work was worthwhile.
C. The garden would be famous. D. The project would be finished.
7. How did the author feel about the project
A. Annoyed. B. Curious. C. Proud. D. Regretful.
C
Feel tired and want to have a break People have many different ways to relax during break time at work or school. Smartphones are probably the number one choice for a quick mental vacation.
Although it might seem like a good time, looking at your cellphone may damage your mental power, according to a recent psychological study from Rutgers University in the United States.
For the study more than 400 students were asked to finish a set of 20 word puzzles. Halfway through the task, the students were divided into three groups. One group was allowed to take a break and use cellphones to buy things online. The second group was asked to have a rest and buy things using a computer. The last group didn’t take any break at all.
Interestingly, the group that used their cellphones during the break went back to work feeling the most tired and least motivated to continue. They also had the hardest time solving the remaining word puzzles.
The cellphone group took 19 percent longer to finish the rest of the task, and solved 22 percent fewer problems than those in the other break conditions combined.
Terri Kurtzberg co-author of the study, explained that they assumed looking at cellphones during a break would be no different from any other break – but instead, the phone may cause increasing levels of distraction that make it difficult to return focused attention to work tasks.
“Cellphones may have this effect because even just seeing your phone activates thoughts of checking messages, connecting with people, access to ever-refilling information and more, in ways that are different than how we use other screens like computers, and laptops,” Kurtzberg told Science Daily.
This is echoed (呼应) by a 2017 study from the US University of Chicago. It found that even if cellphones are turned off or turned face down, their mere presence reduces a person’s cognitive capacity (认知能力).
So, during your next break, try putting your smartphone away. Go out for a walk, get to know your classmates or even take a nap (小憩). You may be surprised by the result.
8. What did the study find about using cellphones during breaks
A. It could make people more motivated at work.
B. It could reduce one’s ability to solve problems.
C. It could be beneficial both physically and mentally.
D. It could affect one’s relationships with others.
9. What does the underlined word “activate” probably mean in paragraph 7
A. motivate B. associate. C. appreciate D. imitate.
10. What can we learn about cellphones from Kurtzberg’s words
A. They may influence people in the same way as computers do.
B. They may make it hard for people to concentrate on work.
C. Their negative influence is almost impossible to avoid.
D. They have become a necessary part of people’s lives.
11. What does the author suggest people do during break time
A. Turn off their cellphones. B. Keep their cellphones face down.
C. Replace cellphones with laptops. D. Keep their cellphones out of sight.
D
It happens countless times a day. A flower’s bright color and the smell of sweet nectar (花蜜) attract a bee. The bee stops by for a quick taste and small grains of pollen (the powder produced by a flower) stick to its body. The bee then travels to another flower of the same type and leaves the pollen as it has another meal. This is an example of animal pollination (授粉) — a process extremely important to plant reproduction.
It’s not only plants that depend on animal pollination — humans do, too. Worldwide, nearly a thousand plants that we grow for food, spices, clothing fibers, and medicine depend on it. If pollination suddenly stopped, we would have no apples, tomatoes, coffee, and many other goods.
This important process is carried out by more than 200,000 different animal species known as pollinators. Flies and beetles - the original pollinators - date back 130 million years to the first flowering plants. Birds, butterflies, and ants also do their part. Even nonflying mammals help out: monkeys tear open flowers with their hands, accidentally spreading pollen into the air and onto their fur.
Pollinators are therefore important, but they are also at risk. Climate change, habitat loss, and invasive predators (入侵捕食者) all threaten them. The United States, for example, has lost over 50 percent of its honeybees over the past ten years. A serious threat facing bees is colony collapse disorder, when worker bees mysteriously disappear from their colony. Scientists are still trying to identify its cause.
There is a quote attributed to Einstein that if bees ever disappeared, man would only have four years left to live. Whether that’s true or not does not really matter, says wildlife photographer Louie Schwartzberg: the key point is that there is a real danger. “The healthiest food we need to eat,” he says, “would disappear without pollinating plants. It’s pretty serious.”
12. What might be left on flower B, as is shown in the picture
A. Nectar. B. Pollen.
C. Leaves D. Fur.
13. What can be inferred from the text
A. Pollination means a lot to fruits and grains.
B. Nearly a thousand plants depend on pollination.
C. Monkeys are the only nonflying mammal pollinators.
D. There are more than 20,000 different species of pollinators.
14. What threat are honeybees faced with
A. Climate change. B. Habitat loss.
C. Invasive predators. D. Colony collapse disorder.
15. What does the underlined “a real danger” in the last paragraph refer to
A. Bees are disappearing. B. Humans can only survive 4 years.
C. Food shortage is serious. D. No pollinating plants, no healthy food.

My school appeared on the news last week because we had made an important change in our local area. Our class had planted a large garden in what was once only a vacant lot. It was a lot of work but it was all worth it. I got blisters(水泡) from digging, and we all got insect bites, too.
I learned a lot about gardening and collaboration(合作), and then I learned about the media. Our teacher telephoned the TV station and informed them of what we had accomplished. She spoke with the producer. The producer checked with the directors, but they said there were plenty of stories similar to ours. They wanted to know what was special about our particular garden, since many schools plant them.
The teacher explained that, after going on the Internet to learn about the prairie(大草原), we had made a prairie garden. We had gone to a prairie and gotten seeds from the plants, and then we planted them. We did not water the garden, but we did weed it. We decided to let nature water it with rain, since that was how prairies grew in the past. We sent a picture of the garden to the news station. In the picture, the grass was so high that it stood taller than the fourth grade students.
As a result the producer sent a reporter to our school. He interviewed the headmaster and asked him many questions about the garden. After that, they interviewed us, and we explained to them what we had learned through this project.
That night, we watched the news, and there we were. The news reporter told our story. It was only two minutes long, but it was us. We were famous. All that work, all those blisters, it was worth it. We knew that when we saw the garden every day, but now we knew that the whole city thought so, too.
4. What seemed to be the TV directors’ initial reaction to the garden
A. They were excited. B. They were surprised.
C. They were worried. D. They were uninterested.
5. What is special about the garden
A. Weeds were allowed to spread naturally.
B. The grass grew faster than common grass.
C. The seeds came from the plants of a prairie.
D. Underground water was used for the plants.
6. What does the underlined word “that” refer to in the last paragraph

Feel tired and want to have a break People have many different ways to relax during break time at work or school. Smartphones are probably the number one choice for a quick mental vacation.
Although it might seem like a good time, looking at your cellphone may damage your mental power, according to a recent psychological study from Rutgers University in the United States.
For the study, more than 400 students were asked to finish a set of 20 word puzzles. Halfway through the task, the students were divided into three groups. One group was allowed to take a break and use cellphones to buy things online. The second group was asked to have a rest and buy things using a computer. The last group didn’t take any break at all.
Interestingly, the group that used their cellphones during the break went back to work feeling the most tired and least motivated to continue. They also had the hardest time solving the remaining word puzzles.
The cellphone group took 19 percent longer to finish the rest of the task, and solved 22 percent fewer problems than those in the other break conditions combined.
Terri Kurtzberg, co-author of the study, explained that they assumed looking at cellphones during a break would be no different from any other break – but instead, the phone may cause increasing levels of distraction that make it difficult to return focused attention to work tasks.
“Cellphones may have this effect because even just seeing your phone activates thoughts of checking messages, connecting with people, access to ever-refilling information and more, in ways that are different than how we use other screens like computers, and laptops,” Kurtzberg told Science Daily.
This is echoed (呼应) by a 2017 study from the US University of Chicago. It found that even if cellphones are turned off or turned face down, their mere presence reduces a person’s cognitive capacity (认知能力).
So, during your next break, try putting your smartphone away. Go out for a walk, get to know your classmates or even take a nap (小憩). You may be surprised by the result.
8. What did the study find about using cellphones during breaks
A. It could make people more motivated at work.
B. It could reduce one’s ability to solve problems.
C. It could be beneficial both physically and mentally.
D. It could affect one’s relationships with others.
9. What does the underlined word “activate” probably mean in paragraph 7
A. motivate B. associate. C. appreciate D. imitate.
10. What can we learn about cellphones from Kurtzberg’s words
A. They may influence people in the same way as computers do.
B. They may make it hard for people to concentrate on work.
C. Their negative influence is almost impossible to avoid.
D. They have become a necessary part of people’s lives.
11. What does the author suggest people do during break time
A. Turn off their cellphones. B. Keep their cellphones face down.
C. Replace cellphones with laptops. D. Keep their cellphones out of sight.
【答案】8. B 9. A 10. B 11. D

【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第六段中的Terri Kurtzberg, co-author of the study, explained that they assumed looking at cellphones during a break would be no different from any other break – but instead, the phone may cause increasing levels of distraction that make it difficult to return focused attention to work tasks.（该研究的合著者Terri Kurtzberg解释说，他们认为在休息时间看手机和其他任何休息时间没有什么不同，但实际上，手机可能会导致注意力越来越分散，很难将注意力重新集中到工作任务上）可知，研究发现在休息时间使用手机会降低一个人解决问题的能力。故选B。
【9题详解】
词义猜测题。根据下文thoughts of checking messages, connecting with people, access to ever-refilling information and more可知，人们即使只是看到手机，大脑中也会激活查看信息、与人联系、获取不断更新的信息等想法。由此可知，划线单词意思为“激活”。故选A。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据第六段中…the phone may cause increasing levels of distraction that make it difficult to return focused attention to work tasks.（手机可能会导致注意力越来越分散，很难将注意力重新集中到工作任务上）可知，从Kurtzberg的话中，我们可以了解到手机可能使人们很难集中精力工作。故选B。
【11题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段So, during your next break, try putting your smartphone away. Go out for a walk, get to know your classmates or even take a nap. You may be surprised by the result.（所以，下次休息的时候，试着把你的智能手机收起来。出去走走，了解你的同学，甚至打个盹。你可能会对结果感到惊讶）可知，作者建议人们在休息时间把手机放在看不见的地方。故选D。
【点睛】词义猜测题是高考阅读理解中常考题型之一，可以大致分为
① 定义猜词，可以根据定义信息和举例猜测词义。如文中常用refer to，be called或that’s to say，such as等。
② 逻辑猜词可以根据同义词、反义词、因果关系词等猜测词义，例如，similarly,the same as,but,however,while,on the other hand,since ,because等，所猜词与这些提示词前/后面部分的含义一样、相反或是前因后果。
③ 语法猜词，可以根据构词法，再结合上下文进行猜词。
④ 语境猜词，猜测词义离不开上下文的语境，通过上下文提供的情景和线索进行合理的分析，同时还要关注其所在的整段及整篇文章。
⑤ 指代猜词即找出人称代词、指示代词、关系代词或关系副词等所指代的内容，做题时要注意指代词的位置，以便于判断，然后用所找的指代内容替换划线代词，核实其逻辑、意义、位置等是否一致，最后比较所找部分与选项，确定意思最接近的选项。
如第2小题，根据下文thoughts of checking messages, connecting with people, access to ever-refilling information and more可知人们即使只是看到手机，大脑中也会激活查看信息、与人联系、获取不断更新的信息等想法。由此可知，划线单词意思为“激活”。故选A。
D
It happens countless times a day. A flower’s bright color and the smell of sweet nectar (花蜜) attract a bee. The bee stops by for a quick taste and small grains of pollen (the powder produced by a flower) stick to its body. The bee then travels to another flower of the same type and leaves the pollen as it has another meal. This is an example of animal pollination (授粉) — a process extremely important to plant reproduction.
It’s not only plants that depend on animal pollination — humans do, too. Worldwide, nearly a thousand plants that we grow for food, spices, clothing fibers, and medicine depend on it. If pollination suddenly stopped, we would have no apples, tomatoes, coffee, and many other goods.
This important process is carried out by more than 200,000 different animal species known as pollinators. Flies and beetles - the original pollinators - date back 130 million years to the first flowering plants. Birds, butterflies, and ants also do their part. Even nonflying mammals help out: monkeys tear open flowers with their hands, accidentally spreading pollen into the air and onto their fur.
Pollinators are therefore important, but they are also at risk. Climate change, habitat loss, and invasive predators (入侵捕食者) all threaten them. The United States, for example, has lost over 50 percent of its honeybees over the past ten years. A serious threat facing bees is colony collapse disorder, when worker bees mysteriously disappear from their colony. Scientists are still trying to identify its cause.
There is a quote attributed to Einstein that if bees ever disappeared, man would only have four years left to live. Whether that’s true or not does not really matter, says wildlife photographer Louie Schwartzberg: the key point is that there is a real danger. “The healthiest food we need to eat,” he says, “would disappear without pollinating plants. It’s pretty serious.”
12. What might be left on flower B, as is shown in the picture
A. Nectar. B. Pollen.
C. Leaves D. Fur.
13. What can be inferred from the text
A. Pollination means a lot to fruits and grains.
B. Nearly a thousand plants depend on pollination.
C. Monkeys are the only nonflying mammal pollinators.
D. There are more than 20,000 different species of pollinators.
14. What threat are honeybees faced with
A. Climate change. B. Habitat loss.
C. Invasive predators. D. Colony collapse disorder.
15. What does the underlined “a real danger” in the last paragraph refer to
A. Bees are disappearing. B. Humans can only survive 4 years.
C. Food shortage is serious. D. No pollinating plants, no healthy food.
【答案】12. B 13. A 14. D 15. D
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章通过蜜蜂的授粉表达了授粉者的重要性：如果不给植物授粉，人们每天吃的健康食物就会消失。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。由第一段中的“The bee stops by for a quick taste and small grains of pollen (the powder produced by a flower) stick to its body. The bee then travels to another flower of the same type and leaves the pollen as it has another meal.”（蜜蜂停下来快速尝一尝小粒花粉（花产生的粉末），这样它黏在蜜蜂的身体上。然后蜜蜂飞到另一朵同种的花上，再次品尝时留下了此前带来的花粉。）从图示看得出，蜜蜂在花朵A上沾到花粉，又飞到花朵B上，则会在花朵B上留下花朵A的花粉。故选B项。
【13题详解】
推理判断题。由第二段中的“Worldwide, nearly a thousand plants that we grow for food, spices, clothing fibers, and medicine depend on it. If pollination suddenly stopped, we would have no apples, tomatoes, coffee, and many other goods.”（在世界范围内，我们种植的用于食品、香料、服装纤维和医药的近千种植物都依赖于授粉。如果授粉突然停止，我们就没有苹果、西红柿、咖啡和其他许多商品。）由此可知，授粉对水果和谷物有很大的意义。故选A项。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。由第四段中的“A serious threat facing bees is colony collapse disorder, when worker bees mysteriously disappear from their colony.”（蜜蜂面临的一个严重威胁是蜂群崩溃混乱症，工蜂会神秘地从蜂群中消失。）可知蜜蜂面临蜂群崩溃混乱症的威胁。故选D项。
【15题详解】
指代猜测题。由第五段中的“…says wildlife photographer Louie Schwartzberg: the key point is that there is a real danger. “The healthiest food we need to eat,” he says, “would disappear without pollinating plants. It’s pretty serious.””（野生动物摄影师路易·施瓦茨伯格说：关键是存在真正的危险：如果不给植物授粉，我们需要吃的最健康的食物就会消失。这很严重。）由此可知，“a real danger（真正的危险）”指的是“没有为植物授粉，人们就没有健康的食物”。故选D项。
