We sat near the window of the plane and enjoyed an unusual and beautiful view of the world. The reason why we went to Miami was that the cost was lower than other cities. We stayed at a hotel near the beach. We slept late every morning and then had breakfast outdoors near the pool. When the weather was not too hot, we went sightseeing in the morning. In the afternoon, we would go swimming in the ocean, lie in the sun, or go water-skiing. After dinner in the evening, we usually went dancing or enjoyed ourselves in the cinema. The two weeks went by too quickly. We were both unwilling to leave when we had to.

Kairo McLean was waiting for his mom to pick him up from school. She arrived with the car windows down, playing Kairo's song Easy Now as loud as the sound could go. That was when she informed him that he was nominated (提名)for the Juno Awards, one of Canada's most influential music awards, for Reggae Recording of the Year. At age 13, Kairo was the youngest artist ever nominated for Reggae Recording of the Year at the JUNOS. His Juno- nominated single Easy Now appears on his first-ever album(歌曲专辑)of the same title.
“I’m so glad that reggae music, which is originally from Jamaica(牙买加), is being rec- ognized and appreciated here in Canada, ”Kairo said in an interview. “It's really exciting that all my efforts have been recognized in spite of my young age, and it motivates me to keep struggling hard to realize my musical dream, ”he said.
“Kairo would try to play the keyboard before he was tall enough to reach it. He wanted to learn how to play the guitar before it could even fit on his lap, ”Kairo's mom recalled. “Listening to music from reggae music artists like Cocoa Tea, Yellowman and Bob Marley is a normal thing in our household. Apart from that, he really put many efforts in his interest, ” she added.
As a Canadian reggae artist outside of Jamaica, Kairo feels that music should spread a message about love and peace, not things like violence and hate. Kairo’s music is about bright light in the world, though we might be always caught in the darkness such as bullies(仗势欺人者)at school or crime in the society. “I bring up the injustices that I see in the world and I talk about them because they need to be spoken about and they need to be heard, ”said Kairo.

【26题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“Kairo would try to play the keyboard before he was tall enough to reach it.( Kairo会在他够得着键盘之前试着弹奏键盘。)”以及第二句“He wanted to learn how to play the guitar before it could even fit on his lap,(他想在吉他还没来得及放在膝盖上的时候就学会弹吉他,)”可知,Kairo在他的身高还没有达到键盘一样高的时候,就会试着去弹;在吉他还没能放在他腿上的时候,他就在学习如何弹奏吉他。由此可知,他从小就对音乐感兴趣。故选B。

Having friends is obviously good for countless reasons. And showing the world that you have lots of friends, for example on social media, seems like a winning strategy. If that is the truth, your goal is to expand your social network. Once people see how popular you are, they'll want to join that popular circle, perhaps in the hope that some of your popularity will rub off on them.
Nevertheless, can a person even have too many friends at the same time It’s always been a misconception that if you have more friends, people will be more likely to want to be friends you.
In fact, a new study published in the Journal of Personality and Social Psychology shows that having too many friends may work against you. In a series of experiments. the authors prove that people usually prefer to befriend those who have fewer friends than they do, rather than those with more friends. The authors call this phenomenon the “friend-number paradox(悖论)”, which is also the title of their new paper.
Social ties are obviously important. Having more of these connections suggests greater social value, and more potential possibilities. So it seems reasonable to assume that people will focus their social energies on befriending people who have lots of friends already.
But the problem is that these social ties are only valuable if there’s reciprocity(互惠) involved. Friendship goes hand in hand with certain responsibilities and expectations. And people with lots of friends may not be able to fulfill those responsibilities—especially those with too many friends.
In other words, “friendship quality” matters as much, if not more, than only the number of friends you have. Having lots of friends means your precious social resources become dilute (稀释了的), making you less able to be a good friend. And other people take that into account consciously(有意识地)or unconsciously when deciding whether to befriend you. They don’t want to spend their valuable social resources on someone who is unlikely to pay it back.
28. What do the underlined words “rub off on” in paragraph l mean
A. Look forward to. B. Take control of.
C. Hold on to. D. Have an effect on.
29. What does the “friend-number paradox” show
A. The secrets to becoming popular.
B. The ways of winning more friends.
C. The advantages of having many friends.
D. The problems with having many friends.
30. What does the author think of people with lots of friends
A. They may fail to perform their duties.
B. They don’t know about reciprocity.
C. They are more likely to be good friends.
D. They have more precious social resources.
31. What would be the best title for the text
A. How Do People Choose Their Friends
B. More Friends Are Not Necessarily Better
C. Why Do People Like Having More Friends
D. People With More Friends Are More Popular
【答案】28 D 29. D 30. A 31. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是说明文。文章讲述一项研究表明,拥有太多的朋友对你可能并没有好处。
【28题详解】
词句猜测题。根据划线词所在句中“Once people see how popular you are, they'll want to join that popular circle, perhaps in the hope that some of your popularity will rub off on them.”(一旦人们看到你很受欢迎,他们就会想加入这个受欢迎的圈子,也许是寄希望于通过你的受欢迎程度去rub off on他们。)可知,因为你的受欢迎,使得人们想加入到这个受欢迎的圈子,即你对他们有了影响,由此可知,划线短语rub off on,意为“影响”。短语:have an effect on“对……有影响”,与划线短语同义,故选D。
【29题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“In fact, a new study published in the Journal of Personality and Social Psychology shows that having too many friends may work against you. In a series of experiments. the authors prove that people usually prefer to befriend those who have fewer friends than they do, rather than those with more friends. The authors call this phenomenon the “friend-number paradox(悖论)”, which is also the title of their new paper.”(实际上,发表在《人格与社会心理学杂志》上的一项新的研究表明,朋友太多可能对你不利。作者通过一系列的实验证明,人们通常更愿意与那些比他们的朋友少的人交朋友,而不是有更多的朋友的人。这就是“朋友数量悖论”,这也是它们新的论文的标题。)可知,“朋友数量悖论”表明朋友太多可能对你不利,即有太多朋友带来的麻烦。故选D。
【30题详解】
推理判断题。根据第五段最后两句“Friendship goes hand in hand with certain responsibilities and expectations. And people with lots of friends may not be able to fulfill those responsibilities—especially those with too many friends. ”(友谊与某些责任和期望密切相关。有很多朋友的人可能无法履行这些责任,特别是那些朋友太多的人。)可知,有很多朋友的人可能会无法履行责任。故选A。
【31题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文,结合文章第三段“In fact, a new study published in the Journal of Personality and Social Psychology shows that having too many friends may work against you. In a series of experiments. the authors prove that people usually prefer to befriend those who have fewer friends than they do, rather than those with more friends. The authors call this phenomenon the “friend-number paradox(悖论)”, which is also the title of their new paper.”(发表在《人格与社会心理学杂志》上的一项新的研究表明,朋友太多可能对你不利。作者通过一系列的实验证明,人们通常更愿意与那些比他们的朋友少的人交朋友,而不是有更多的朋友的人。这就是“朋友数量悖论”,这也是它们新的论文的标题。)可知,本文介绍了一项研究结果:拥有太多的朋友对你可能并没有好处。故选B。

Schools in US are huge consumers of energy. According to ENERGY STAR, K- 12 schools spend more than $6 billion every year on energy, far more than the amount spent on other resources, and at least 30 percent of this energy is used inefficiently or needlessly.
Realizing that, some schools are seeking measures to save energy in several ways, from low-cost adjustments, such as turning off lights in unused rooms, to large-scale projects, such as turning to green equipment.
As solar energy is becoming a more financial choice for powering buildings, more schools are making the move toward the renewable energy and using solar panels(太阳能电池板)on their rooftops. According to an online solar marketplace EnergySage, schools have their strong points to use solar energy. They often have the kind of enough space, suitable locations that are perfect for setting up solar panels.
In September 2020, a nonprofit Generation180 released its third edition of a study on solar use in US schools. The findings showed that more than 7, 300, or 55 percent, of K- 12 public and private schools used solar energy, the number has increased by 81 percent since 2014.
They also described how solar schools were saving millions in energy bills, and provided several cases to show the increased savings achieved by solar-powered school districts. For ex- ample, an Arkansas school district used its every year's energy savings of nearly $100, 000 to increase its teachers' salaries.
The Interstate Renewable Energy Council, which tracks the number of K- 12 schools with solar equipment and helps schools go solar, says on its website that schools with solar setups have an opportunity to educate students about clean energy, and show them that they are de- voted to do something for students' and the planet's health and future.
Third-party ownership also makes funding for 79 percent of schools to use solar energy possible, meaning a majority of schools don't have to spend large amounts of money but can get the rewards of solar energy.
32. How does the author lead in the topic of the text in the first paragraph
A. By raising a problem.
B. By giving an example.
C. By making a comparison.
D. By offering an evidence.
33. What is the advantage of using solar energy for the schools in US
A. Free access to using solar energy.
B. Enough space to fix solar equipment.
C. Financial support from solar marketplace.
D. Being the largest consumers of the energy.
34. What effect does using solar energy have on the schools
A. Increasing their operating expense
B. Threatening their teachers' income.
C. Raising the students' environmental awareness.
D. Reducing their total amount of energy consuming.
35. Which word can best describe the schools' using solar energy
A. Achievable B. Doubtful. C. Challenging. D. Worrying.
【答案】32. A 33. B 34. C 35. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是说明文。美国的基础教育学校的能源消耗量越来越大,这导致学校的运营成本越来越高。学校正寻求使用太阳能来解决这个问题。
【32题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段“Schools in US are huge consumers of energy. According to ENERGY STAR, K- 12 schools spend more than $6 billion every year on energy, far more than the amount spent on other resources, and at least 30 percent of this energy is used inefficiently or needlessly.(美国的学校是能源消耗大户。根据“能源之星”的数据,K- 12学校每年在能源上的花费超过60亿美元,远远超过在其他资源上的花费,其中至少30%的能源被低效或不必要地使用。)”可知,美国的基础教育学校每年在能源上的花费巨大,浪费也很严重。文章接下来就谈到了使用太阳能来解决这个问题。故文章是以提问题的方式引出文章主题的。故选A。
【33题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段最后一句“They often have the kind of enough space, suitable locations that are perfect for setting up solar panels.(它们通常有足够的空间,合适的位置,非常适合安装太阳能电池板。)”可知,学校往往有足够的空间和合适的位置来安装太阳能电池板。故选B。
【34题详解】
推理判断题。根据第六段中“schools with solar setups have an opportunity to educate students about clean energy, and show them that they are de- voted to do something for students' and the planet's health and future.(有太阳能设施的学校有机会教育学生有关清洁能源的知识,并向他们展示他们致力于为学生和地球的健康和未来做些事情。)”可知,配备了太阳能的学校可以利用这个机会来让学生了解清洁能源的知识,这有利于提高学生的环保意识。故选C。
【35题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段中“As solar energy is becoming a more financial choice for powering buildings, more schools are making the move toward the renewable energy and using solar panels(太阳能电池板)on their rooftops. (随着太阳能越来越成为为建筑物供电的经济选择,越来越多的学校开始转向可再生能源,在屋顶上使用太阳能电池板。)”和最后一段“Third-party ownership also makes funding for 79 percent of schools to use solar energy possible, meaning a majority of schools don't have to spend large amounts of money but can get the rewards of solar energy.(第三方所有权也为79%的学校提供了使用太阳能的资金,这意味着大多数学校不必花费大量资金,但可以获得太阳能的回报。)”可知,美国的基础教育学校有利用太阳能的空间和位置方面的优势,也有资金扶持。因此,这些学校使用太阳能的做法是行得通的。故选A。

You are not decided by what went on before. If you do feel stuck, try telling yourself your action statements: I am up at once and I am productive! And definitely no “if only” statements. ____39____
Celebrate success and milestones. ____40____ This will help keep you from being lazy because you are seeing the fruits of your labor. You may feel less motivated to do something if it feels insignificant.

(你可能认为躺在床上享受被窝的温暖会让你之后更有活力,但事实恰恰相反。)”可知,后文应该提及恰恰相反的内容。C选项“We are actually more tired throughout the day.(事实上,我们整天都更累。)”指出躺在床上享受被窝的温暖不会让你之后更有活力,而是更疲惫,符合语境,与下文“Instead, jump out of bed and start your morning routine.(相反,从床上跳起来,开始你早上的日常事务。)”是转折关系。故选C。
【38题详解】
本空是本段的中心句子。根据后文的“By setting yourself some worthy yet practical goals, you will have something to look forward to. (通过给自己设定一些有价值且实际的目标,你就会有所期待。)”可知,本段围绕的是设置目标而展开。B选项“Set some goals that are likely to be achieved.(设定一些有可能实现的目标。)”概括本段,指出设定一些可实现的目标,引起下文。故选B。
【39题详解】
根据前文“ If you do feel stuck, try telling yourself your action statements: I am up at once and I am productive! And definitely no “if only” statements. (如果你的确感觉被困住了,试着告诉自己你的行动宣言:我马上起床,我很有效率!而且绝对没有“如果……”的说法。)”可知,此处讲述给自己做心理暗示很重要。G选项“Those are for people who truly don't want to be satisfied in life(这些是为那些真正不想在生活中感到满足的人准备的)”指出,那些说“如果……”的人们是那些真正不想在生活中满足的人准备的。前后呼应。故选G。
【40题详解】
根据前文“Celebrate success and milestones. (庆祝成功和里程碑。)”可知,此处强调的是庆祝摆脱懒惰带来的影响。F选项“You can reward yourself with small gifts for the job well done.(你可以用一些小礼物来奖励自己的出色工作。)”呼应主题“庆祝成功和里程碑”。故选F。

67. 阅读下面材料, 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。
At the age of 12, Lily earned a scholarship to study at a boarding school in Australia. Her father told her to study hard and practice running every day in Australia. She nodded be- cause that was much easier than staying happy in a completely new country. Several days later, she kissed her family and boarded the plane for Australia. As the plane took off, she looked out of the window at the goats and brown rivers of Kenya. She stared down at the green fields where she used to run barefoot(赤脚), like the wind.
At school, Lily had lots of math problems to solve, essays to write, and books to read. She also joined the school running team. They were preparing for an important running race, in which runners from different schools took part. In order to practice running, her coach gave her a striped shirt, white shorts, shoes with cleats (防滑钉)and another pair with spongy soles(吸水鞋底)for cross-country. Honestly speaking, she had always run barefoot at home, so the shoes felt tight. But all the other runners wore shoes and Lily didn’t want to be different.
The team practiced every weekday afternoon. On Saturdays, everyone watched football— everyone but Lily. She would run alone on the country roads barefoot and run over fields thick with mud just as in her hometown. Each day at lunch, she would sit alone in the large dining hall, eating dishes totally strange to her and missing her family.
One Saturday, Lily ran up a hill and found herself in a yard. To her surprise, one of her classmates, Thomas, stood just inside the barn (谷仓) door. After he greeted her, Lily asked, “Why aren’t you watching football ” “I have to help my father,” said Thomas, “but why aren’t you wearing your shoes ”
注意:
1. 续写词数应为150左右;
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
On hearing this question, Lily felt embarrassed

On the day of the race, all the runners were wearing professional suits and shoes except Lily.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】 On hearing this question, Lily felt embarrassed. However, she collected her courage to tell him the truth. “You are used to running barefoot That’s amazing,” said Thomas. “But everybody has his way to do something, so just run in your own way.” Then he expressed his admiration and support to her. Lily was moved to tears the moment she heard what Thomas said. She also felt warm and encouraged. From then on, she devoted herself to practicing running barefoot every day.
On the day of the race, all the runners were wearing professional suits and shoes except Lily. She stood barefoot on the lane. However, she was not feeling ashamed because that was her way to run. “Come on, Lily, you can make it!” It was Thomas who was cheering for her. Suddenly, she felt more confident. At last, she won first prize and brought honor to her school. From then on, she could not only concentrate on studying and running, but also she stayed happy in the new school.
【解析】
【导语】本文以时间为线索展开,讲述了12岁的Lily在澳大利亚一所寄宿制学校学习。在学校,她有很多数学问题要解决,有论文要写,书要读。她也加入了学校跑步队,但Lily喜欢光着脚练习跑步。一天跑步时,Lily遇到了Thomas,Thomas问她为何光着脚跑步。

②根据第二段首句内容“比赛当天,除了 Lily,所有的赛跑者都穿着职业套装和鞋子”可知,第二段可描写Raha在Thomas的鼓励下,跑步赢得了第一名,也获得了自信。

Kairo McLean was waiting for his mom to pick him up from school. She arrived with the car windows down, playing Kairo's song Easy Now as loud as the sound could go. That was when she informed him that he was nominated (提名)for the Juno Awards, one of Canada's most influential music awards, for Reggae Recording of the Year. At age 13, Kairo was the youngest artist ever nominated for Reggae Recording of the Year at the JUNOS. His Juno- nominated single Easy Now appears on his first-ever album(歌曲专辑)of the same title.
“I’m so glad that reggae music, which is originally from Jamaica(牙买加), is being rec- ognized and appreciated here in Canada, ”Kairo said in an interview. “It's really exciting that all my efforts have been recognized in spite of my young age, and it motivates me to keep struggling hard to realize my musical dream, ”he said.
“Kairo would try to play the keyboard before he was tall enough to reach it. He wanted to learn how to play the guitar before it could even fit on his lap, ”Kairo's mom recalled. “Listening to music from reggae music artists like Cocoa Tea, Yellowman and Bob Marley is a normal thing in our household. Apart from that, he really put many efforts in his interest, ” she added.
As a Canadian reggae artist outside of Jamaica, Kairo feels that music should spread a message about love and peace, not things like violence and hate.

Having friends is obviously good for countless reasons. And showing the world that you have lots of friends, for example on social media, seems like a winning strategy. If that is the truth, your goal is to expand your social network. Once people see how popular you are, they'll want to join that popular circle, perhaps in the hope that some of your popularity will rub off on them.
Nevertheless, can a person even have too many friends at the same time It’s always been a misconception that if you have more friends, people will be more likely to want to be friends you.
In fact, a new study published in the Journal of Personality and Social Psychology shows that having too many friends may work against you. In a series of experiments. the authors prove that people usually prefer to befriend those who have fewer friends than they do, rather than those with more friends. The authors call this phenomenon the “friend-number paradox(悖论)”, which is also the title of their new paper.
Social ties are obviously important. Having more of these connections suggests greater social value, and more potential possibilities. So it seems reasonable to assume that people will focus their social energies on befriending people who have lots of friends already.
But the problem is that these social ties are only valuable if there’s reciprocity(互惠) involved. Friendship goes hand in hand with certain responsibilities and expectations. And people with lots of friends may not be able to fulfill those responsibilities—especially those with too many friends.
In other words, “friendship quality” matters as much, if not more, than only the number of friends you have. Having lots of friends means your precious social resources become dilute (稀释了), making you less able to be a good friend. And other people take that into account consciously(有意识地)or unconsciously when deciding whether to befriend you. They don’t want to spend their valuable social resources on someone who is unlikely to pay it back.

A. Look forward to. B. Take control of.
C. Hold on to. D. Have an effect on.
29. What does the “friend-number paradox” show
A. The secrets to becoming popular.
B. The ways of winning more friends.
C. The advantages of having many friends.
D. The problems with having many friends.
30. What does the author think of people with lots of friends
A. They may fail to perform their duties.
B. They don’t know about reciprocity.
C. They are more likely to be good friends.
D. They have more precious social resources.
31. What would be the best title for the text
A. How Do People Choose Their Friends
B. More Friends Are Not Necessarily Better
C. Why Do People Like Having More Friends
D. People With More Friends Are More Popular

Schools in US are huge consumers of energy. According to ENERGY STAR, K- 12 schools spend more than $6 billion every year on energy, far more than the amount spent on other resources, and at least 30 percent of this energy is used inefficiently or needlessly.
Realizing that, some schools are seeking measures to save energy in several ways, from low-cost adjustments, such as turning off lights in unused rooms, to large-scale projects, such as turning to green equipment.
As solar energy is becoming a more financial choice for powering buildings, more schools are making the move toward the renewable energy and using solar panels(太阳能电池板)on their rooftops. According to an online solar marketplace EnergySage, schools have their strong points to use solar energy. They often have the kind of enough space, suitable locations that are perfect for setting up solar panels.
In September 2020, a nonprofit Generation180 released its third edition of a study on solar use in US schools. The findings showed that more than 7, 300, or 55 percent, of K- 12 public and private schools used solar energy, the number has increased by 81 percent since 2014.
They also described how solar schools were saving millions in energy bills, and provided several cases to show the increased savings achieved by solar-powered school districts. For ex- ample, an Arkansas school district used its every year's energy savings of nearly $100, 000 to increase its teachers' salaries.
The Interstate Renewable Energy Council, which tracks the number of K- 12 schools with solar equipment and helps schools go solar, says on its website that schools with solar setups have an opportunity to educate students about clean energy, and show them that they are de- voted to do something for students' and the planet's health and future.
Third-party ownership also makes funding for 79 percent of schools to use solar energy possible, meaning a majority of schools don't have to spend large amounts of money but can get the rewards of solar energy.
32. How does the author lead in the topic of the text in the first paragraph
A. By raising a problem.
B. By giving an example.
C. By making a comparison.
D. By offering an evidence.
33. What is the advantage of using solar energy for the schools in US
A. Free access to using solar energy.
B. Enough space to fix solar equipment.
C. Financial support from solar marketplace.
D. Being the largest consumers of the energy.
34. What effect does using solar energy have on the schools
A. Increasing their operating expense
B. Threatening their teachers' income.
C. Raising the students' environmental awareness.
D. Reducing their total amount of energy consuming.
35. Which word can best describe the schools' using solar energy
A. Achievable B. Doubtful. C. Challenging. D. Worrying.

At the age of 12, Lily earned a scholarship to study at a boarding school in Australia. Her father told her to study hard and practice running every day in Australia. She nodded be- cause that was much easier than staying happy in a completely new country. Several days later, she kissed her family and boarded the plane for Australia. As the plane took off, she looked out of the window at the goats and brown rivers of Kenya. She stared down at the green fields where she used to run barefoot(赤脚的), like the wind.
At school, Lily had lots of math problems to solve, essays to write, and books to read. She also joined the school running team. They were preparing for an important running race, in which runners from different schools took part. In order to practice running, her coach gave her a striped shirt, white shorts, shoes with cleats (防滑钉)and another pair with spongy soles(吸水鞋底)for cross-country. Honestly speaking, she had always run barefoot at home, so the shoes felt tight. But all the other runners wore shoes and Lily didn’t want to be different.
The team practiced every weekday afternoon. On Saturdays, everyone watched football— everyone but Lily. She would run alone on the country roads barefoot and run over fields thick with mud just as in her hometown. Each day at lunch, she would sit alone in the large dining hall, eating dishes totally strange to her and missing her family.
One Saturday, Lily ran up a hill and found herself in a yard. To her surprise, one of her classmates, Thomas, stood just inside the barn (谷仓) door. After he greeted her, Lily asked, “Why aren’t you watching football ” “I have to help my father,” said Thomas, “but why aren’t you wearing your shoes ”
