【原文】It was my 21st birthday and I wanted to have an unforgettable night. So I arranged to have a party at this famous hotel. It was a warm evening in the middle of August, but because it was raining heavily outside we had to stay in the hotel all night. There were a lot of guests at the party and the room was packed. I was dancing when I saw the smoke. People began to panic, but there were so many of us that we couldn't get out quickly. Soon the room was full of smoke. I managed to open a window and get out of the burning building. The fire fighters arrived shortly after, but it took a long time for them to put out the fire. Luckily, all the guests got out in time. Some of them had to go to hospital because of burns and breathing problems. Fortunately, the fire fighters had put out the fire before it spread to the rest of the hotel. However, the room where the party was held was completely destroyed. I was told later that it was because the building had been struck by lightning. Can you believe it.

At the foot of the Tianmu Mountain in Zhejiang, a homestay (民宿) is attracting travelers from far and wide, which has won architectural medal at the 2021 German iF Design Awards.
The owners of the homestay are a couple in their late 30s who decided to return to their hometown three years ago. Li Xiumei used to be in charge of a division at a company in Hangzhou, and her husband was a sales director. It was an ordinary situation where Li’s husband was on business trips a lot and Li still worked on weekends. City life sometimes is not easy.
In 2018, they quit jobs and went back to Dongtianmu village, which lies in a forest of bamboo. The first time they drove into the village was one late afternoon. The cooking smoke was rising from the foot of the mountain, which gave them a very different feeling from the city.
The homestay was built beside her husband’s old countryside house. The old house is preserved (保留), while a brand-new building was built on its side and the whole site is made up of four courtyards. It has been updated to have a hall, a tea room, a kitchen, a dining room. Japanese cherry trees are planted in the east courtyard. A swimming pool is placed in the west courtyard, with a bar located on one side.
Li and her husband love gardening and music, and their new home gives them enough space to continue their interests and relax in the heart of nature. Li wants to share the quiet country life, so she makes her new home a homestay. In 2019, the homestay became an online hit after guests shared their experiences on social media. “The longer I stay here, the more I feel it was the right choice to come back, and this is more meaningful than making money,” Li says.
25. How did Li feel about city life
A. Satisfied. B. Noisy. C. Attractive. D. Tired
26. What impressed the couple when first driving to the village
A. The forest of bamboo. B. The smoke of cooking.
C. The fresh air in the village. D. The feeling of loneliness.
27. What can we infer about the homestay from paragraph 4
A. It is ancient and broken. B. It can hold many guests.
C. It must have been carefully designed. D. It has been rebuilt by the couple.
28. What’s more meaningful than earning money according to Li
A. Continuing their music dream. B. Living in the countryside.
C. Staying at the old house. D. Developing a city.
【答案】25. D 26. B 27. C 28. B
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇说明文。讲述了浙江天目山脚下的一家民宿吸引着来自四面八方的游客，该民宿在2021年德国iF设计奖的建筑奖牌。
【25题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段中“It was an ordinary situation where Li’s husband was on business trips a lot and Li still worked on weekends. City life sometimes is not easy. (这是一个普通的情况，李某的丈夫经常出差，而李仍然在周末工作。城市生活有时并不容易。)”可以推知，李某觉得城市生活很累。故选D项。
【26题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中“The first time they drove into the village was one late afternoon. The cooking smoke was rising from the foot of the mountain, which gave them a very different feeling from the city. (他们第一次开车进村子是在一个傍晚。炊烟从山脚下升起，给他们一种与城市截然不同的感觉。)”可知，当夫妇俩第一次开车去村子时，炊烟给他们留下了深刻的印象。故选B项。
27题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段中“The old house is preserved (保留), while a brand-new building was built on its side and the whole site is made up of four courtyards. It has been updated to have a hall, a tea room, a kitchen, a dining room. Japanese cherry trees are planted in the east courtyard. A swimming pool is placed in the west courtyard, with a bar located on one side. (老房子被保留下来，而在它的一侧建造了一个全新的建筑，整个场地由四个庭院组成。它已经更新为一个大厅，一个茶室，一个厨房，一个餐厅。东院里种着日本樱桃树。游泳池位于西庭院，酒吧位于一侧。)”可以推知，这个民宿一定是精心设计的。故选C项。
【28题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Li wants to share the quiet country life, so she makes her new home a homestay. (李某想要分享安静的乡村生活，所以她把她的新家变成了寄宿家庭。)”以及李某所说“The longer I stay here, the more I feel it was the right choice to come back, and this is more meaningful than making money (我在这里待得越久，就越觉得回归是正确的选择，这比赚钱更有意义。)”可以推知，住在乡村居住生活比挣钱更有意义。故选B项。
C
There’s no pizza on Mars, but scientists have found a solution to this problem for hungry astronauts: a pizza printer! NASA, the American space agency, has developed a machine that “prints” food. They showed a model of the printer in Austin, Texas last month.
How does it work Cartridges (墨盒) filled with powdered dough (面粉团), cheese, sauce, water and oil put the ingredients layer (层) by layer onto a printer bed. The printer bed, which gets hot from below, cooks the food as it’s being printed.
Since most of the ingredients are powdered, they can be sent into space and stored for many years without going bad. Water makes food go sour, so the food powders are mixed with water and oil only when they are being printed.
“Long-distance space travel requires more than 15 years of shelf life for food.” says Anjan Contractor, whose company developed the printer. “We take water out, and in that form, food will last maybe 30 years.”
In outer space, there are far fewer choices for astronauts for dinner. Most of their foods—even things like beef or shrimp—are eaten from bags as powders (粉末). Scientists hope the new food printer can be used to make more delicious food in outer space, keeping astronauts healthier and happier.
But the printer is not limited to use in outer space. Scientists think it could be useful on Earth, too. It could allow personal meals to be made at the dinner table, according to each person’s different needs.
“Let’s say someone is an athlete in the family, and he needs more protein (蛋白质),” says Anjan Contractor, founder of Systems and Materials Research Corp, the company developing the printer. “We can design recipes for him and print out more protein-nutritious food for him.”
29. What is the main idea of the second paragraph
A. The advantages of the printer
B. How does the printer work
C. How the printer was invented
D. The food in outer space will never go bad.
30. What does the underlined word “stored” mean in the third paragraph
A. sold B. kept C. transported D. eaten
31. Which of the following is TRUE
A. Astronauts eat beef powder in outer space.
B. Only astronauts and athletes can eat the food from the printer.
C. The printer can only be used in outer space.
D. A model of the food printer was shown in New York last month.
32. What is the best title for this passage
A. Astronauts’ Life in Outer Space B. Hungry Just Print!
C. How to Make Pizza D. Long Lasting Food
【答案】29. B 30. B 31. A 32. B
【解析】
【分析】本文是一篇说明文。本文主要介绍了一种可“打印”食物的机器的原理和优势。
【29题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第二段“How does it work （它是如何工作的 ）”可知，本段主要是绍打印机是怎么工作的。故选B。
【30题详解】
词义猜测题。根据后文“for many years without going bad（多年而不变质）”可知，这些食物被保存的很好，所以stored指的是“保存、储存”的意思。故选B。
【31题详解】
细节理解题。根据第五段“Most of their foods—even things like beef or shrimp—are eaten from bags as powders .（他们的大部分食物——甚至像牛肉或虾这样的东西——都是装在袋子里当作粉末吃的。）”可知，宇航员在外太空吃牛肉粉。故选A。
【32题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段“There’s no pizza on Mars, but scientists have found a solution to this problem for hungry astronauts: a pizza printer! NASA, the American space agency, has developed a machine that “prints” food.（火星上没有披萨，但科学家们已经为饥饿的宇航员找到了解决这个问题的办法：披萨打印机!美国国家航空航天局(NASA)开发了一种“打印”食物的机器。）”及全文可知，本文主要介绍了一种可“打印”食物的机器的原理和优势。所以“Hungry Just Print!( 饿了吗 只需打印就行!)”作为文章标题最为合适。故选B。

【37题详解】
由上文“Read and learn new words often. Reading a series of material—books, magazines or poetry—exercises the brain. (经常阅读和学习一些新单词。读一系列材料如书，杂志或者诗来练习大脑)”可知，此段讲的是从两方面即阅读和学习新单词来练习大脑，已经讲了通过阅读来练习大脑，所以空处应该讲的是从学习单词方面来练习大脑，承接上文，F选项“学习新单词就像学习一门新语言。”切题。故选F项。

At the foot of the Tianmu Mountain in Zhejiang, a homestay (民宿) is attracting travelers from far and wide, which has won architectural medal at the 2021 German iF Design Awards.
The owners of the homestay are a couple in their late 30s who decided to return to their hometown three years ago. Li Xiumei used to be in charge of a division at a company in Hangzhou, and her husband was a sales director. It was an ordinary situation where Li’s husband was on business trips a lot and Li still worked on weekends. City life sometimes is not easy.
In 2018, they quit jobs and went back to Dongtianmu village, which lies in a forest of bamboo. The first time they drove into the village was one late afternoon. The cooking smoke was rising from the foot of the mountain, which gave them a very different feeling from the city.
The homestay was built beside her husband’s old countryside house. The old house is preserved (保留), while a brand-new building was built on its side and the whole site is made up of four courtyards. It has been updated to have a hall, a tea room, a kitchen, a dining room. Japanese cherry trees are planted in the east courtyard. A swimming pool is placed in the west courtyard, with a bar located on one side.
Li and her husband love gardening and music, and their new home gives them enough space to continue their interests and relax in the heart of nature. Li wants to share the quiet country life, so she makes her new home a homestay. In 2019, the homestay became an online hit after guests shared their experiences on social media. “The longer I stay here, the more I feel it was the right choice to come back, and this is more meaningful than making money,” Li says.
25. How did Li feel about city life
A. Satisfied. B. Noisy. C. Attractive. D. Tired
26. What impressed the couple when first driving to the village
A. The forest of bamboo. B. The smoke of cooking.
C. The fresh air in the village. D. The feeling of loneliness.
27. What can we infer about the homestay from paragraph 4
A. It is ancient and broken. B. It can hold many guests.
C. It must have been carefully designed. D. It has been rebuilt by the couple.
28. What’s more meaningful than earning money according to Li
A. Continuing their music dream. B. Living in the countryside.
C. Staying at the old house. D. Developing a city.
C
There’s no pizza on Mars, but scientists have found a solution to this problem for hungry astronauts: a pizza printer! NASA, the American space agency, has developed a machine that “prints” food. They showed a model of the printer in Austin, Texas last month.
How does it work Cartridges (墨盒) filled with powdered dough (面粉团), cheese, sauce, water and oil put the ingredients layer (层) by layer onto a printer bed. The printer bed, which gets hot from below, cooks the food as it’s being printed.
Since most of the ingredients are powdered, they can be sent into space and stored for many years without going bad. Water makes food go sour, so the food powders are mixed with water and oil only when they are being printed.
“Long-distance space travel requires more than 15 years of shelf life for food.” says Anjan Contractor, whose company developed the printer. “We take water out, and in that form, food will last maybe 30 years.”
In outer space, there are far fewer choices for astronauts for dinner. Most of their foods—even things like beef or shrimp—are eaten from bags as powders (粉末). Scientists hope the new food printer can be used to make more delicious food in outer space, keeping astronauts healthier and happier.
But the printer is not limited to use in outer space. Scientists think it could be useful on Earth, too. It could allow personal meals to be made at the dinner table, according to each person’s different needs.
“Let’s say someone is an athlete in the family, and he needs more protein (蛋白质),” says Anjan Contractor, founder of Systems and Materials Research Corp, the company developing the printer. “We can design recipes for him and print out more protein-nutritious food for him.”

As Graduation Day came, George waited for signs that his father had bought the car. Finally, on the morning of his graduation, George’s father called him into his private study. His father told him how proud he was to have such a fine son, and told him how much he loved him. He handed his son a beautiful wrapped (包裹的) gift box. Curious, but a bit disappointed, George opened the box and found a lovely, leather-bound (皮边的) book, with his name in gold. Angrily, George raised his voice to his father and said, “With all your money, you give me a book ” He then stormed out of the house, leaving the book.
Many years passed and George was very successful in business. He had a beautiful home and a wonderful family, but realizing his father was very old, he thought perhaps he should go to see him.
