A
In the 2021 Tokyo Olympic Games, the athletes were fighting hard to win glory for themselves and their country. Do you care about the gold medal count Shouldn’t we just enjoy the game Readers share their opinions.
George
The spirit of the Olympic Games is about sportsmanship and performing your personal best, which brings the whole world together under peace and competition. It was never purely about winning gold medals and dominance, as no single athlete can dominate (统治) the whole Olympic Games. The spirit of the Olympics also give an important message to the world that no single country should seek to dominate over others.
Eric
None of the athletes who fail to win a gold medal have anything to be ashamed of. If they win a medal, great! If they don’t, we know they did their best. One minute on stage, 10 years of practice off stage. The small medals contain their countless efforts. Gold, silver, bronze, even if they didn’t win any medal, we cheer for them and are proud of them. Go China!
Allende
The Chinese delegation has been put on too much pressure, which is unfair to all hard-working athletes. A gold medal is not everything. Think about those players who lost the gold but tried their best, most people do not show friendly sympathy to them, but even lightly blame them, and I was one of these people. I have to take this occasion to apologize for my behavior. Don’t create unreasonable pressure, you are not the one playing the game!

【1题详解】
推理判断题。根据“George”下的“It was never purely about winning gold medals and dominance, as no single athlete can dominate (统治) the whole Olympic Games. The spirit of the Olympics also give an important message to the world that no single country should seek to dominate over others.(这不仅仅是为了赢得金牌和统治地位,因为没有一个运动员可以统治整个奥运会。奥运会的精神也向世界传递了一个重要信息,即任何一个国家都不应谋求支配其他国家。)”以及“Eric”下的“If they win a medal, great! If they don’t, we know they did their best. One minute on stage, 10 years of practice off stage. The small medals contain their countless efforts. Gold, silver, bronze, even if they didn’t win any medal, we cheer for them and are proud of them. Go China!(如果他们赢得了奖牌,太棒了!如果他们没有,我们知道他们已经尽力了。台上一分钟台下十年练。小小的奖牌,凝聚着他们无数的心血。金、银、铜,即使他们没有赢得任何奖牌,我们为他们欢呼,为他们感到骄傲。加油,中国!)”可知两者的共同点是他们客观地看待输赢。故选C。
【2题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章“Allende”下的“Think about those players who lost the gold but tried their best, most people do not show friendly sympathy to them, but even lightly blame them, and I was one of these people. I have to take this occasion to apologize for my behavior.(想想那些失去金牌却竭尽全力的球员,大多数人不会对他们表现出友好的同情,甚至会轻微地指责他们,而我就是其中之一。我必须利用这个机会为我的行为道歉。)”可知Allende对他所做的事感到抱歉。故选A。
【3题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第一段“Do you care about the gold medal count Shouldn’t we just enjoy the game Readers share their opinions.(你关心金牌数吗 难道我们不应该享受比赛吗?读者们分享了他们的观点。)”可知这篇文章可能来自于一篇新闻报道。故选C。
B
As a young man, Al was a skilled artist. He had a wife and two fine sons. One night, his elder son developed a serious stomachache. Thinking it was only some common disorder, neither Al nor his wife took the condition very seriously. But it was actually acute appendicitis (急性阑尾炎), and the boy died suddenly that night.
Knowing the death could have been prevented if he had only realized the seriousness of the situation, Al’s emotional health grew worse under the burden of his guilt. To make matters worse, his wife left him a short time later, leaving him alone with his six-year-old younger son. The hurt and pain of the two situations were more than Al could handle, and he turned to alcohol. As the alcoholism progressed, Al began to lose everything he possessed.
When I heard of Al’s death, I reacted with disdain (轻蔑). “What a complete failure!” I thought.
As time went by, I began to take my earlier judgment into consideration again. I knew Al’s now adult son, Ernie. He has grown into one of the kindest, most caring and most loving men I have ever known. One day I worked up my courage to talk about my puzzle with him.
Ernie sat quietly and reflected for a few moments. Then he said, “From my earliest memories as a child until I left home at 18, Al came into my room every night, gave me a kiss and said, ‘I love you, son.’”
Tears came to my eyes as I realized what a fool I had been to judge Al as a failure. He had not left any material possessions behind. But he had been a kind loving father, and he left behind one of the finest, most giving men I have ever known.
4. What did his elder son die from according to Al
A. The acute appendicitis. B. The alcoholism.
C. The separation of his mother. D. The failure of timely attention.
5. How did Al feel about his son’s death
A. Responsible. B. Relieved. C. Puzzled. D. Unable.
6. After a talk with Ernie the author ________.
A. began to get close to Ernie B. came to look up to Al
C. tried to care about Al’s situations D. hoped to change Ernie’s judgement
7. What does the author want to express in the passage
A. Love is the best possession. B. Love is taking from others.
C. Father should be considerate. D. Father may be misunderstood.
【答案】4. D 5. A 6. B 7. A
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述Al因为自己的疏忽大意导致大儿子死亡,因此非常内疚,经常酗酒,最后死去。作者一直认为Al是一个失败者,直到和Al的小儿子交流后,改变了对Al的看法。作者通过这篇文章告诉我们:爱是最好的遗产。
【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段的“Thinking it was only some common disorder, neither Al nor his wife took the condition very seriously. But it was actually acute appendicitis (急性阑尾炎), and the boy died suddenly that night.(艾尔和他的妻子都认为这只是一种常见的疾病,对这种情况都不太重视。但实际上是急性阑尾炎,男孩当晚突然死亡)”可知,大儿子的死亡主要是因为Al和妻子没有及时注意。故选D。
【5题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段的“Knowing the death could have been prevented if he had only realized the seriousness of the situation, Al’s emotional health grew worse under the burden of his guilt. (如果他当时意识到情况的严重性,儿子的死亡本来是可以避免的。在负罪感的重压下,Al的情绪每况愈下)”推知,Al认为自己对大儿子的死亡有不可推卸的责任。故选A。
【6题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“Tears came to my eyes as I realized what a fool I had been to judge Al as a failure. He had not left any material possessions behind. But he had been a kind loving father, and he left behind one of the finest, most giving men I have ever known.(当我意识到自己是多么的愚蠢竟把艾尔看成一个失败者时,泪水夺眶而出。他没有留下任何物质财产。但他一直是一个慈爱的父亲,他留下了我所认识的最好的、最有爱心的人之一)”推知,和Al的小儿子Ernie交流后作者开始崇敬Al。故选B。
【7题详解】
推理判断题。根据故事的主要情节,结合最后一段“Tears came to my eyes as I realized what a fool I had been to judge Al as a failure. He had not left any material possessions behind. But he had been a kind loving father, and he left behind one of the finest, most giving men I have ever known.(当我意识到自己是多么的愚蠢,竟把阿尔看成一个失败者时,泪水夺眶而出。他没有留下任何物质财产。但他一直是一个慈爱的父亲,他留下了我所认识的最好的、最有爱心的人之一)”推知,作者想通过这篇文章告诉我们爱是最好的遗产。故选A。
【点睛】
C
When Jack, my husband, and I drove past a fire station with a sign reading, “Are you ready for the next storm ” Our area had just been in the path of Hurricane Irma, causing downed trees and outages. We were stuck in the dark and cut off from the outside world.
We have had our share of storms in the past — a snowstorm and other heavy snows that knocked down trees, sometimes up to a week at a time. Those days in a cold house weren’t fun, but we learned so much from those early storms, things that made later storms easier to bear.
Now we have stored up flashlights, lanterns and candles. We bought a battery-operated radio to keep up with the news. We stocked up on batteries so that we’d have plenty for extended power failures. We make sure our grill (烤架) is ready and its tank is full, and we purchase food that can be easily prepared and then cooked or heated on the grill. And we don’t forget to buy emergency chocolate! We have book lights to read in the dark. We keep our car gas tanks full and have emergency cash on hand.
We’re ready for the next storm, but we wouldn’t have learned to do all those things if we hadn’t encountered a storm in the past. The same is true spiritually. Those little storms in our lives are never fun, but they prepare us for the big storms — the big trials — that will come our way. They can teach us some valuable lessons.
Are you ready for the next storm Now is the time to get ready... not when the storm arrives.
8. Which can replace the underlined word “outages” in Paragraph 1
A. Power cuts. B. Traffic accidents.
C. Bad weathers. D. Natural disasters.
9. What is the third paragraph mainly about
A. The importance of storing up daily goods.
B. The experience of dealing with housework.
C. The items the author bought for her daily life.
D. The preparations the author made for emergency.
10. What does the author think of experiencing the past storms
A. It was satisfactory. B. It was instructive.
C. It was unforgettable. D. It was unbearable.
11. What can we learn from the author’s story
A. When it rains, it pours. B. Where there’s smoke, there’s fire.
C. Strike while the iron is hot. D. Take precautions before it is too late.
【答案】8. A 9. D 10. B 11. D
【解析】
【分析】本文是夹叙夹议文。作者经历过暴风雨后就懂得要为下一次暴风雨做好准备。作者通过自身经历告诉我们要未雨绸缪,要为人生中出现的困境随时做好准备。
【8题详解】
词句猜测题。根据划线词前一句提到“Our area had just been in the path of Hurricane Irma, causing downed trees(我们所在的地区刚刚进入飓风艾尔玛的路径,导致树木倒塌)”及后一句提到“We were stuck in the dark and cut off from the outside world.( 我们被困在黑暗中,与外界隔绝)”可知,作者和丈夫所在的地区刚刚受到飓风“厄玛”的袭击,导致树木倒下,他们被困,与外界失去联系。由此推知,划线词outages与Power cuts意思接近,意为“停电”。故选A。
【9题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第三段中“Now we have stored up flashlights, lanterns and candles. We bought a battery-operated radio to keep up with the news. We stocked up on batteries so that we'd have plenty for extended power failures. We make sure our grill (烤架) is ready and its tank is full, and we purchase food that can be easily prepared and then cooked or heated on the grill. And we don't forget to buy emergency chocolate! We have book lights to read in the dark. We keep our car gas tanks full and have emergency cash on hand. (现在我们已经储存了手电筒、灯笼和蜡烛。 我们买了一台电池供电的收音机来收听新闻。 我们储备了电池,以便我们有足够的时间来应对长时间的电源故障。 我们确保我们的烤架已经准备好并且它的水箱是满的,我们购买的食物可以很容易地准备好,然后在烤架上烹饪或加热。 我们不要忘记购买紧急巧克力! 我们有书灯可以在黑暗中阅读。 我们将汽车油箱装满,并备有应急现金)”可知,经历了以前的暴风雨之后,作者随时准备了照明用的东西、电池,还有烤架、食物,汽车油箱也加满了油,手头还有应急现金。由此可知,第三段主要讲述了作者为以后的暴风雨所做的准备。故选D。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段中的“but we wouldn't have learned to do all those things if we hadn't encountered a storm in the past. (但如果我们过去没有遇到风暴,我们就不会学会做所有这些事情)”以及“They can teach us some valuable lessons. (他们可以教给我们一些宝贵的经验)”可推知,作者认为曾经经历过的暴风雨对他们是有益的。故选B。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“Now is the time to get ready. . . not when the storm arrives. (现在是做好准备的时候了……不是在暴风雨来临的时候)”可知,作者认为现在要为以后的暴风雨做准备,而不是当暴风雨来临的时候才准备。由此推知,作者的故事告诉我们一定要未雨绸缪。故选D。
D
The therapy (疗法) program “changed my entire way of thinking, and I was able to apply it to other parts of my life as well,” says Genova, who spent 20 years conducting clinical research on anxiety disorders and other behavioral and public health issues before founding Socially Speaking, a social performance and anxiety coaching business.
Anxiety — as it refers to a set of disorders including social anxiety disorder and generalized anxiety disorder, which Genova also has — affects more than 18% of the U.S. adult population each year. That makes it the most common mental illness in the country, according to the Anxiety and Depression Association of America.
“Anxiety is definitely becoming more common. Chances are, you know someone who suffers from it,” says Angelique Mason, a family nurse practitioner with Penn Medicine at Woodbury Heights in New Jersey, who often sees patients with a range of anxiety disorders.
Incidence of anxiety was on the rise before the COVID-19 pandemic (流行病), but that global health crisis (危机) and following financial and social disorders just threw gas on the anxiety fire for a majority of Americans. An October 2020 survey from the American Psychiatric Association found 62% of Americans feel more anxious than they did at the same time the previous year, a sizable increase over APA surveys conducted over the past three years, in which the number had ranged between 32% and 39%.
Moe Gelbart, director of behavioral health at Torrance Memorial Medical Center in Torrance, California, mentions that “we’re experiencing the highest rates of anxiety we have ever seen. Reasons include fear of the unknown and feelings of helplessness and lack of control.”
Lawrence Lovell, a licensed mental health adviser based in New York City, and founder of Breakthrough Solutions, points to a 2021 report from the Kaiser Family Foundation that found during the pandemic 4 in 10 adults in the U.S. reported symptoms of anxiety or depressive disorder, up from 1 in 10 who reported those symptoms from January to June 2019.
12. What do we know about Genova
A. She has been free from anxiety.
B. She thinks anxiety affects most young people.
C. She set up Socially Speaking 20 years ago.
D. She benefited from the therapy program.
13. What has caused Americans more anxiety according to the text
A. The worldwide financial crisis. B. The COVID-19 pandemic.
C. The increase of adult population. D. The lack of skilled family nurses.
14. What is the best title for the passage
A. More Challenges on the Way B. More Health Advisers in Need
C. Anxiety Affects You D. Patients Suffer from Anxiety
15. What will probably be talked about next
A. Global mental health. B. America’s pandemic control.
C. Tips for relieving anxiety. D. Types of disease symptoms.
【答案】12. D 13. B 14. C 15. C
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章主要陈述了美国人焦虑越来越普遍的现象。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段的“The therapy (疗法) program “changed my entire way of thinking, and I was able to apply it to other parts of my life as well,” says Genova,(Genova说,这个治疗项目“改变了我的整个思维方式,我也能够将它应用到我生活的其他部分”)”可知,Genova 受益于治疗项目。故选D。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段的“Incidence of anxiety was on the rise before the COVID-19 pandemic (流行病), but that global health crisis (危机) and following financial and social disorders just threw gas on the anxiety fire for a majority of Americans.(在2019冠状病毒病大流行之前,焦虑的发生率一直在上升,但这场全球健康危机以及随后出现的金融和社会混乱为大多数美国人的焦虑火上浇油)”可知,新型冠状病毒的流行让美国人更加焦虑。故选B。
【14题详解】
主旨大意题。根据文章的主要内容,尤其第二段的“Anxiety — as it refers to a set of disorders including social anxiety disorder and generalized anxiety disorder, which Genova also has — affects more than 18% of the U.S. adult population each year.(焦虑是指包括社交焦虑障碍和广泛性焦虑障碍在内的一系列疾病,Genova也患有这种疾病,每年影响超过18%的美国成年人)”,第三段的“Anxiety is definitely becoming more common.(焦虑无疑变得越来越普遍)”和第四段的“An October 2020 survey from the American Psychiatric Association found 62% of Americans feel more anxious than they did at the same time the previous year, a sizable increase over APA surveys conducted over the past three years, in which the number had ranged between 32% and 39%.(美国精神病学协会2020年10月的一项调查发现,62%的美国人比去年同期感到更焦虑,这比过去三年APA所做的调查大幅增加,该数字在32%至39%之间)”可知,文章主要陈述了美国人越来越焦虑的现状。结合选项,“焦虑影响你了吗?”可以作为本文的最佳标题。故选C。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“Lawrence Lovell, a licensed mental health adviser based in New York City, and founder of Breakthrough Solutions,(Lawrence Lovell是纽约州的一位有执照的心理健康顾问,也是突破解决方案的创办人)”结合上文提到美国人越来越焦虑的现状推知,下文可能陈述缓解焦虑的方法。故选C。
第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)
According to a survey, more young people are killed each year by sleepy drivers than by drunk drivers. This proves one thing. Getting enough sleep can be tough. How are we dealing with the problem Sleep clinics (诊所) are appearing all over the United States. ____16____
Driving when tired can be very dangerous. During the daytime, over half of drivers report feeling sleepy at some point. At night, over 80 percent drivers sometimes get drowsy (昏睡的). And here is the most frightening of all. ____17____
What is going on here One thing is that people are not getting enough sleep. One person out of three gets by on less than six hours a night. Lots of people have trouble falling asleep. ____18____ Few people get enough of the deep sleep they need to feel really rested.
____19____ Believe it or not, people need seven to nine hours of nighttime sleep to remain healthy. During that sleep, a person’s immune system is built up. This helps fight off diseases and infections. And taking a nap in the daytime does not really help. It will make a person feel refreshed. But it cannot make up for the lack of nighttime sleep.
What if you are a person with real sleeping problems What if you have tried all the home remedies (治疗法) like hot milk You might consider going to a sleep clinic. ____20____ They will study your sleep problems, and you will not have to pay anything.
A. Here are some facts to remember.
B. Many such clinics look for volunteers.
C. Too much sleep may make you tired as well.
D. Sleep is part of a person’s daily activity cycle.
E. They are always working to find out more about sleep.
F. Others fall asleep easily, but then wake up time after time.
G. Almost one-quarter of all drivers have fallen asleep at the wheel.
【答案】16. E 17. G 18. F 19. A 20. B
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了夜间睡眠不足的危害,呼吁人们如果有睡眠问题可以去睡眠诊所。
【16题详解】
空处位于段末应承接上文,根据上文“Sleep clinics (诊所) are appearing all over the United States. (睡眠诊所出现在美国各地)”推知,下文陈述的话题和这些诊所有关。E项“它们总是努力了解更多关于睡眠的知识”,符合题意,选项中的they指代上文的Sleep clinics。故选E。
17题详解】
根据上文“During the daytime, over half of drivers report feeling sleepy at some point. At night, over 80 percent drivers sometimes get drowsy (昏睡的). And here is the most frightening of all.(在白天,超过一半的司机报告说在某个时候感到困倦。晚上,超过80%的司机有时会昏昏欲睡。还有最可怕的)”中“here is the most frightening of all”推知,下文要讲比“feeling sleepy”和“get drowsy”更糟糕的情况。G项“几乎四分之一的司机在开车时睡着了”符合语境。故选G。
【18题详解】
根据上文“Lots of people have trouble falling asleep. (很多人难以入睡)”和下文“Few people get enough of the deep sleep they need to feel really rested.(很少有人能得到足够的深度睡眠来真正休息)”可知,上下文都陈述了人们的睡眠问题,由此推知空处也陈述睡眠问题。F项“另一些人很容易入睡,但却一次又一次地醒来”符合题意,属于睡眠问题中的一种。故选F。
【19题详解】
根据下文“Believe it or not, people need seven to nine hours of nighttime sleep to remain healthy. During that sleep, a person’s immune system is built up. This helps fight off diseases and infections. And taking a nap in the daytime does not really help. (信不信由你,人们需要七到九个小时的夜间睡眠才能保持健康。在睡眠期间,人的免疫系统会建立起来。这有助于抵御疾病和感染。白天小睡也没有什么帮助)”可知,我们需要充足的睡眠,因为这样有助于免疫系统,即使白天小睡也不能弥补夜间睡眠的缺失,而这些都是需要我们铭记于心的。A项“以下是一些需要记住的事实”符合题意,下文陈述的内容是对facts的说明。故选A。
【20题详解】
根据上文“You might consider going to a sleep clinic. (你可以考虑去睡眠诊所)”和下文“They will study your sleep problems, and you will not have to pay anything.(他们会研究你的睡眠问题,你不需要支付任何费用)”可知,如果有睡眠问题可以以志愿者的身份去睡眠诊所,它们可以免费研究你的睡眠问题。B项“很多这样的诊所都在寻找志愿者”符合题意,volunteers呼应下文的you will not have to pay anything。故选B。

The spirit of the Olympic Games is about sportsmanship and performing your personal best, which brings the whole world together under peace and competition.

As a young man, Al was a skilled artist. He had a wife and two fine sons. One night, his elder son developed a serious stomachache. Thinking it was only some common disorder, neither Al nor his wife took the condition very seriously. But it was actually acute appendicitis (急性阑尾炎), and the boy died suddenly that night.
Knowing the death could have been prevented if he had only realized the seriousness of the situation, Al’s emotional health grew worse under the burden of his guilt. To make matters worse, his wife left him a short time later, leaving him alone with his six-year-old younger son. The hurt and pain of the two situations were more than Al could handle, and he turned to alcohol. As the alcoholism progressed, Al began to lose everything he possessed.
When I heard of Al’s death, I reacted with disdain (轻蔑). “What a complete failure!” I thought.
As time went by, I began to take my earlier judgment into consideration again. I knew Al’s now adult son, Ernie. He has grown into one of the kindest, most caring and most loving men I have ever known. One day I worked up my courage to talk about my puzzle with him.
Ernie sat quietly and reflected for a few moments. Then he said, “From my earliest memories as a child until I left home at 18, Al came into my room every night, gave me a kiss and said, ‘I love you, son.’”
Tears came to my eyes as I realized what a fool I had been to judge Al as a failure. He had not left any material possessions behind. But he had been a kind loving father, and he left behind one of the finest, most giving men I have ever known.
4. What did his elder son die from according to Al
A. The acute appendicitis. B. The alcoholism.
C. The separation of his mother. D. The failure of timely attention.

A. Love is the best possession. B. Love is taking from others.
C. Father should be considerate. D. Father may be misunderstood.
C
When Jack, my husband, and I drove past a fire station with a sign reading, “Are you ready for the next storm ” Our area had just been in the path of Hurricane Irma, causing downed trees and outages. We were stuck in the dark and cut off from the outside world.
We have had our share of storms in the past — a snowstorm and other heavy snows that knocked down trees, sometimes up to a week at a time. Those days in a cold house weren’t fun, but we learned so much from those early storms, things that made later storms easier to bear.
Now we have stored up flashlights, lanterns and candles. We bought a battery-operated radio to keep up with the news. We stocked up on batteries so that we’d have plenty for extended power failures. We make sure our grill (烤架) is ready and its tank is full, and we purchase food that can be easily prepared and then cooked or heated on the grill. And we don’t forget to buy emergency chocolate! We have book lights to read in the dark. We keep our car gas tanks full and have emergency cash on hand.
We’re ready for the next storm, but we wouldn’t have learned to do all those things if we hadn’t encountered a storm in the past. The same is true spiritually. Those little storms in our lives are never fun, but they prepare us for the big storms — the big trials — that will come our way. They can teach us some valuable lessons.
Are you ready for the next storm Now is the time to get ready... not when the storm arrives.
8. Which can replace the underlined word “outages” in Paragraph 1

C. It was unforgettable. D. It was unbearable.
11. What can we learn from the author’s story
A. When it rains, it pours. B. Where there’s smoke, there’s fire.
C. Strike while the iron is hot. D. Take precautions before it is too late.
D
The therapy (疗法) program “changed my entire way of thinking, and I was able to apply it to other parts of my life as well,” says Genova, who spent 20 years conducting clinical research on anxiety disorders and other behavioral and public health issues before founding Socially Speaking, a social performance and anxiety coaching business.
Anxiety — as it refers to a set of disorders including social anxiety disorder and generalized anxiety disorder, which Genova also has — affects more than 18% of the U.S. adult population each year. That makes it the most common mental illness in the country, according to the Anxiety and Depression Association of America.
“Anxiety is definitely becoming more common. Chances are, you know someone who suffers from it,” says Angelique Mason, a family nurse practitioner with Penn Medicine at Woodbury Heights in New Jersey, who often sees patients with a range of anxiety disorders.
Incidence of anxiety was on the rise before the COVID-19 pandemic (流行病), but that global health crisis (危机) and following financial and social disorders just threw gas on the anxiety fire for a majority of Americans.
