Ⅰ.阅读理解
A
(2021·福建高三联盟)Growing up, “family” meant something very different to Bianca Jones Marlin. Her biological parents provided attendance to multiple children, giving Marlin the joy of having many brothers and sisters from different backgrounds. On occasions, she would stay up late listening to the stories from their past homes—stories filled with suffering and sadness. These stories had a lasting impact on Marlin. “There were stories of abuse, of not getting the proper nutrition or proper care that a child would need，” Marlin says. “Taking my passion for science and what I've learned from the stories, and putting them together is what I really want to do.”
Today as a neurobiologist, Marlin researches how suffering can be passed down from generation to generation. At Columbia University's Zuckerman Institute, she studies the molecular mechanisms of stresses in parents that can affect the brain structure and the sensory experiences of their future generations.
Marlin's investigations examine a process known as epigenetic inheritance, in which biochemical markers acquired from experiences or environmental conditions can change how our genes are expressed inside of cells. In the case of the mice she works with, Marlin creates a stressful association with a particular smell, which in turn increases the number of olfactory cells inside the mice's brains used to detect that specific smell. She then looks at whether or not the children are born with more of these olfactory cells as a result of their parents' suffering. If that proves to be true, Marlin plans to find and potentially even affect the epigenetic switches responsible for changing the children's biology or behavior—eventually improving the outcomes for the children.
“The passion of my work stems from my desire to apply neurobiology and the science of learning to understand how both positive and negative experiences in life influence brain health.” says Marlin.

2．What is the function of olfactory cells
A．To sense specific stress.
B．To lessen the mice's suffering.

(2021·浙江镇海中学高三月考)The boss turned down a raise and gave it to his staff instead. Tony Bennett, the head coach of the University of Virginia (UVA) men's basketball team, was offered a large pay raise after his team won the national championship in 2019. But to everyone's surprise, he turned the offer down and requested that the money go to his staff and the basketball program instead. What's more, he donated $500，000 to the basketball players.
The boss bought an employee a new car. On the night before Alabama student Walter Carr's first day at Bellhops Moving company, his car broke down. Nobody could give him a ride to work, so Carr decided to walk the 20 mile distance overnight. After seven hours, he arrived right on time. When the boss heard about Carr's unbelievable story, he drove from Tennessee to Alabama to give the young student a Ford Escape.
The boss forgave a costly mistake. A diner at a British steakhouse had a stroke of luck when he was accidentally served an expensive bottle of red wine. Instead of blaming the server who made the mistake, as some might, the boss decided to laugh it off. “To the customer who accidentally got given a bottle of wine, which is ￡4，500 last night, hope you enjoyed your evening！” the steakhouse tweeted. “To the server who accidentally gave it away, cheer up! We love you anyway.”
The boss gave his staff a free trip to Hawaii. Imagine drinking a cocktail on a sunny, warm beach with 500 of your closest employees. That's how Brian Scudamore, the founder and CEO of home service provider O2E Brands, chose to spend his vacation in 2017. Back in 2012, Scudamore promised his employees that if they could double the company's income in five years, he would take them on an all expenses paid trip to Hawaii. Needless to say, they achieved the goal.
【解题导语】 本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了四位善待员工的老板的故事。
5．Which of the following best describes Tony Bennett
A．Honest. B．Professional.
C．Wealthy. D．Generous.
D 解析：细节理解题。根据第一段中的“he turned the offer down and requested that the money...to the basketball players.”可知，托尼·班尼特得到了大幅加薪，但出乎意料的是，他拒绝了，并要求把这笔钱给他的员工并用于篮球项目。此外，他还捐赠了50万美元给篮球运动员。由此可知，托尼·班尼特很慷慨。故选D。
6．Why did the boss buy a new car to Walter Carr
A．To make up his long walk.
B．To praise his moving action.
C．To solve his financial problem.
D．To call on others to learn from him.
B 解析：细节理解题。根据第二段可知，在去公司的第一天，沃尔特·卡尔的车坏了， 他连夜步行20英里去上班。老板听说了这个令人难以置信的故事后，给了他一辆新车，是为了表扬他感人的行为。故选B。
7．Why did the diner at a British steakhouse enjoy expensive wine
A．He got it as a reward.
B．He liked it very much.
C．He acquired it by accident.
D．He met with a generous boss.
C 解析：细节理解题。根据第三段中的“A diner at a British steakhouse had a stroke of luck when he was accidentally served an expensive bottle of red wine.”可知，在一家英国牛排餐厅，由于服务员的错误，给用餐的人端上了一瓶昂贵的红酒。由此可知，用餐者是偶然地机会享用了一瓶昂贵的红酒。故选C。
8．What did the four bosses mentioned in the text have in common
A．They did a nice thing to their employees.
B．They forgave their employee's mistakes.
C．They hoped to double the company's income.
D．They fulfilled their promises to their employees.
A 解析：推理判断题。文章提到了四位老板的所作所为：第一位老板放弃加薪，慷慨地将钱给了员工；第二位老板给步行20英里上班的员工奖励了一辆新车；第三位老板对员工的错误一笑了之，而不是责备；第四位老板承诺员工如果公司的收入翻番，就让员工免费去夏威夷旅行。由此可以推断，这四位老板的共同之处是他们对员工做了件好事。故选A。

6．being 解析：考查独立主格结构。句意：这是我第一次生活在一种不同的文化中，仅仅适应生活条件已经是一个很大的调整。两个句子之间没有连词，使用独立主格结构，本空提示词与主语This之间为主动关系，因此填v. ing 形式。故填being。

8．where 解析：考查关系副词。句意：想象一下在一个温度经常超过38摄氏度且没有空调的地方！分析句子结构可知，place为先行词，后面的连接词在从句中作状语表示地点，因此填where。
9．glorious 解析：考查形容词。句意：然而，我可以用非洲壮丽的日落来结束每一天。形容词glorious作定语，意为“美丽的、灿烂的”。故填glorious。
10．placed 解析：考查非谓语动词。句意：我的经历不仅让我意识到我们自身的局限性，也让我意识到我们惊人的适应能力。过去分词作定语，此处表示“被安放在我们自己身上的局限性”。故填placed。

Ⅱ.读后续写
阅读下面的材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
In her seventeen years on this earth, Shreyaa Venkat has done more to help the planet and the people than many adults two, three, and four times her age. The non profit organization she founded, NEST4US, has helped tens of thousands of people in the United States.
Venkat's enthusiasm for helping others started as soon as she could walk, as her parents, active volunteers themselves, brought her along on their various projects. By fifth grade, she started organizing her own service projects in her community.“I like doing good things but I'd rather do them with friends，” she explains. “It brings me so much joy to help.”
NEST4US was born when she realized how much food waste there was, how many hungry people there were.“There was a homeless man standing on a corner inD．C. and he was holding a sign that said ‘Hungry Need Food’，” she remembers. “So I gave him my lunch—it was just a banana, and a bottle of water—and his whole face just lit up. I found out he hadn't eaten in a week! It was so easy, it only took me 30 seconds, and it really helped him.”
Hunger is just one of the many harsh realities of living on the streets. But the ease of this small act inspired her to find a way to get food to the people who need it the most. True, this is a question of politicians, community and religious leaders, and others have been wrestling with for thousands of years. But she didn't overthink it; she decided to just act.
注意：续写词数应为150左右。

How would she accomplish this huge task Many kids of her age have a hard time just talking on the phone but talking to strangers is not a problem for Venkat, who says she emails, calls, and talks to business owners in person to ask for donations. From there, volunteers pick up the excess food—everything from bagels to bagged salads to hot entrees—and deliver it to local shelters and food pantries.
As much as she has helped others, they have helped her too, she says. Not only does she get a lot of joy and personal satisfaction from her volunteer work but she says running NEST4US has taught her important life skills like time management, public speaking, writing, and leadership. “What it's really given me is this perspective, of putting other people first，” she says.

(2021·福建高三联盟)Growing up, “family” meant something very different to Bianca Jones Marlin. Her biological parents provided attendance to multiple children, giving Marlin the joy of having many brothers and sisters from different backgrounds. On occasions, she would stay up late listening to the stories from their past homes—stories filled with suffering and sadness. These stories had a lasting impact on Marlin. “There were stories of abuse, of not getting the proper nutrition or proper care that a child would need，” Marlin says. “Taking my passion for science and what I've learned from the stories, and putting them together is what I really want to do.”
Today as a neurobiologist, Marlin researches how suffering can be passed down from generation to generation. At Columbia University's Zuckerman Institute, she studies the molecular mechanisms of stresses in parents that can affect the brain structure and the sensory experiences of their future generations.
Marlin's investigations examine a process known as epigenetic inheritance, in which biochemical markers acquired from experiences or environmental conditions can change how our genes are expressed inside of cells. In the case of the mice she works with, Marlin creates a stressful association with a particular smell, which in turn increases the number of olfactory cells inside the mice's brains used to detect that specific smell. She then looks at whether or not the children are born with more of these olfactory cells as a result of their parents' suffering. If that proves to be true, Marlin plans to find and potentially even affect the epigenetic switches responsible for changing the children's biology or behavior—eventually improving the outcomes for the children.
“The passion of my work stems from my desire to apply neurobiology and the science of learning to understand how both positive and negative experiences in life influence brain health.” says Marlin.

A．Marlin's interest in science.

B．Marlin has improved the outcomes for the children.
C．Biochemical markers are likely to change gene expression.
D．Parents' suffering can't be passed down to their children.

(2021·浙江镇海中学高三月考)The boss turned down a raise and gave it to his staff instead. Tony Bennett, the head coach of the University of Virginia (UVA) men's basketball team, was offered a large pay raise after his team won the national championship in 2019. But to everyone's surprise, he turned the offer down and requested that the money go to his staff and the basketball program instead. What's more, he donated $500，000 to the basketball players.
The boss bought an employee a new car. On the night before Alabama student Walter Carr's first day at Bellhops Moving company, his car broke down. Nobody could give him a ride to work, so Carr decided to walk the 20 mile distance overnight. After seven hours, he arrived right on time. When the boss heard about Carr's unbelievable story, he drove from Tennessee to Alabama to give the young student a Ford Escape.
The boss forgave a costly mistake. A diner at a British steakhouse had a stroke of luck when he was accidentally served an expensive bottle of red wine. Instead of blaming the server who made the mistake, as some might, the boss decided to laugh it off. “To the customer who accidentally got given a bottle of wine, which is ￡4，500 last night, hope you enjoyed your evening！” the steakhouse tweeted. “To the server who accidentally gave it away, cheer up! We love you anyway.”
The boss gave his staff a free trip to Hawaii. Imagine drinking a cocktail on a sunny, warm beach with 500 of your closest employees. That's how Brian Scudamore, the founder and CEO of home service provider O2E Brands, chose to spend his vacation in 2017. Back in 2012, Scudamore promised his employees that if they could double the company's income in five years, he would take them on an all expenses paid trip to Hawaii.

阅读下面的材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
In her seventeen years on this earth, Shreyaa Venkat has done more to help the planet and the people than many adults two, three, and four times her age. The non profit organization she founded, NEST4US, has helped tens of thousands of people in the United States.
Venkat's enthusiasm for helping others started as soon as she could walk, as her parents, active volunteers themselves, brought her along on their various projects. By fifth grade, she started organizing her own service projects in her community.“I like doing good things but I'd rather do them with friends，” she explains. “It brings me so much joy to help.”
NEST4US was born when she realized how much food waste there was, how many hungry people there were.“There was a homeless man standing on a corner inD．C. and he was holding a sign that said ‘Hungry Need Food’，” she remembers. “So I gave him my lunch—it was just a banana, and a bottle of water—and his whole face just lit up. I found out he hadn't eaten in a week! It was so easy, it only took me 30 seconds, and it really helped him.”
Hunger is just one of the many harsh realities of living on the streets. But the ease of this small act inspired her to find a way to get food to the people who need it the most. True, this is a question of politicians, community and religious leaders, and others have been wrestling with for thousands of years. But she didn't overthink it; she decided to just act.
