Countries around the world ring in the new year with unique customs and traditions, often carried out at the strike of midnight. We rounded up ways to bring international New Year's Eve experiences to you.
Japan: Eat toshikoshi soba.
Shiwasu is the end-of-the-year period in Japan, filled by many traditions like traveling to see family and thoroughly cleaning your home. To celebrate New Year's Eve, people eat toshikoshi soba, which can symbolize having a long and lucky life along with a clean break from the year.
Spain: Eat 12 grapes.
The tradition of eating grapes for good luck began in Spain, but it is now practised around the world. When the clock starts ringing at midnight, eat one grape with each ring. It's even luckier if you're wearing special New Year's Eve underwear while eating your grapes. A pair of red underwear can bring you a new year of love, while yellow may bring joy and good luck.
Denmark: Jump off a chair.
In Denmark, one does not simply let the new year happen. You go on the offense(讨厌的东西) and jump into it. Just before midnight, stop what you're doing and get on a chair to do the jump like a Dane would. Should you forget to jump, it's said that you'll bring bad luck for the following year, so please, we are begging you—do not forget to jump.
Russia: Burn, then drink, your wishes.
After a year of unrealized dreams and plans, set your sights on a fresh start with this Russian tradition. Before midnight, write down your wishes for 2023 on a piece of paper, then light the paper on fire. Once it's stopped burning, sprinkle(洒) the wish-filled ashes into a glass of wine and drink up after the clock strikes midnight.
46.What do the four traditions have in common
A.They all last for the whole night.
B.Each is connected to a certain food.

It's even luckier if you're wearing special New Year's Eve underwear while eating your grapes. ”午夜钟声响起时,每响一响就吃一颗葡萄。如果你在吃葡萄的时候穿着特别的跨年内衣,那就更幸运了;Denmark: Jump off a chair.部分中"Should you forget to jump, it's said that you'll bring bad luck for the following year, so please, we are begging you—do not forget to jump.”如果你忘记跳,据说你会在来年带来坏运气,所以,我们恳求你,不要忘记跳;以及Russia: Burn, then drink, your wishes.部分中"After a year of unrealized dreams and plans, set your sights on a fresh start with this Russian tradition.”在一年未实现的梦想和计划之后,将目光投向这个俄罗斯传统的新开始。可知,这四个国家的新年习俗都代表着新年的愿望。故选D。
47.考查细节理解。根据Spain: Eat 12 grapes.部分中"The tradition of eating grapes for good luck began in Spain, but it is now practised around the world. ”吃葡萄祈求好运的传统始于西班牙,但现在世界各地都有这种习俗。可知,吃葡萄祈求好运已经传播至全世界。故选B。
48.考查推理判断。根据第一段"Countries around the world ring in the new year with unique customs and traditions, often carried out at the strike of midnight. We rounded up ways to bring international New Year's Eve experiences to you.”世界各国以独特的习俗和传统迎接新年,通常在午夜钟声敲响时进行。我们收集了一些方法,为你带来国际跨年体验。可知,本文的目的是介绍四种可以在家尝试的跨年传统。故选C。
B
Is there a Chinese soccer team at the Qatar 2022 World Cup No. But one can't miss Chinese elements(元素) in and around the stadiums in this desert state. One can take a nap in a "mobile hotel" built by Chinese engineers, drink water from ponds dug by Chinese engineers, charge one's mobile phone with electricity produced at the photovoltaic(光电的) power stations built by Chinese companies, and take a bus made in China to move between hotels and stadiums.
Did we forget something Yes, even some stadiums are built by Chinese companies, while the souvenirs(纪念品) one can buy there, too, are made in China.
That's how China has taken part in this World Cup and earlier events, and may do so in the upcoming ones too: by providing products and services to the athletes and audiences alike, thus impressing the world with its technology and products.
While "Made in China" has left its stamp on earlier soccer World Cups and other sports events, what makes the Qatar World Cup unique is the kind of technology China is providing. For example, the Stadium 974, built by Chinese companies, is the first movable and redeploy able (可重构体系的) "green stadium". It can recycle rainwater for future use and turn the garbage collected from the stadium into fertilizer(肥料). Besides, China has built an 800 MW photovoltaic station that continually turns the rich sunshine in the Middle East into electricity for the stadium.
Another reason that has made it possible for Chinese firms to perform well in the World Cup is that China has achieved good economic growth despite a global economic slowdown. While the whole world suffers because of the COVID-19 pandemic and other reasons, Chinese companies have largely continued to function normally.

A.To lead in the topic of the text.

A.The services offered are the best ever.
B.The products provided are of high quality.

D.The technology employed are environmental-friendly.
51.What can the underlined phrase "has left its stamp on" in para 4 be replaced by

C.Has made contributions to. D.Has left an impression on.
52.Which can be a suitable title for the text

B.You can't miss "China green" in Qatar
C.Another World Cup without Team China
D.Qatar World Cup—"Made in China" again

49.考查推理判断。根据第一段中的"But one can't miss Chinese elements(元素) in and around the stadiums in this desert state. ”但在这个沙漠之州,人们不能错过体育场内和周围的中国元素;以及第二段中的"Did we forget something Yes, even some stadiums are built by Chinese companies, while the souvenirs(纪念品) one can buy there, too, are made in China.”我们是不是忘了什么 是的,甚至一些体育场馆都是中国公司建造的,而人们在那里买到的纪念品也是中国制造的。知,前两段起到的作用是引出文章的主题:中国通过为运动员和观众提供产品和服务,以其技术和产品给世界留下深刻的印象。故选A。
50.考查细节理解。根据倒数第二段中的"For example, the Stadium 974, built by Chinese companies, is the first movable and redeployable(可重构体系的) ‘green stadium’.

Scientists have known for many years that houseplants benefit people's well-being. Now researchers have found a way to make plants even better for human health. Using a method called genetic modification(基因编辑), they raised plants that reduce indoor air pollution. GM means changing a plant or animal by fixing its DNA, including adding DNA from another species(物种).
Indoor air pollution is produced by cleaning products, cooking, and dust, among other things, and it can be bad for people's health. In 1989, research done by NASA found that houseplants could clean the air in a home. Later studies, however, showed that plants actually made too small a difference to help much. Since then, scientists have been experimenting with the DNA of certain houseplants to try to create one that will reduce more air pollution.
In 2018, scientists from the University of Washington decided to adapt a houseplant called pothos, or devil's ivy, which is popular and easy to care for. The team added new DNA based on a chemical found in a rabbit's liver. In the animal, the chemical breaks down harmful matter. The team found that the new DNA made the plant better at taking in pollution.
More recently, a company called Neoplants added more DNA, from two types of bacteria(细菌). As the devil's ivy grow, the team studied it carefully. Tests suggested that it was up to 30 times better at taking in pollution than the non-GM plants that NASA tested back in 1989. The company is also planning to add bacteria to the soil that comes with the plant, which could help break down even more polluting gases.
There is more work to be done, but the team at Neoplants plans to use this technology in other types of houseplants. If all goes well, the company hopes people in the US will be able to decorate their homes with pollution-busting plants by next year. Another company, Origen Air, sells a plant-based system that cleans the air in businesses and homes. It has already appeared on the market in Canada.
53.How can houseplants benefit people's health according to the text
A.By relaxing people's minds.
B.By producing more oxygen.
C.By cutting down air pollution.
D.By killing the bacteria in the air.
54.What do we know about pothos from the text
A.It is a rare and high-demanding houseplant.
B.NASA was the first to study its health benefits.
C.The plant itself can break down harmful chemicals.
D.GM technology betters its ability to reduce air pollution.
55.What can be inferred from the last paragraph
A.No similar plant-based system has been put into use up till now.
B.Further improvements are needed before the system goes into service.
C.Application of the technology to other types of houseplants is already underway.
D.Neoplants' genetically modified houseplants are sure to appear on the market soon.
56.In which section of a magazine may this text appear

53.考查细节理解。根据第一段中的"Using a method called genetic modification(基因编辑), they raised plants that reduce indoor air pollution.” 通过一种叫做基因改造的方法,他们种植了可以减少室内空气污染的植物。可知,室内植物通过削减空气污染有利于人们的健康。故选C。
54.考查细节理解。根据第三段"In 2018, scientists from the University of Washington decided to adapt a houseplant called pothos, or devil's ivy, which is popular and easy to care for. The team added new DNA based on a chemical found in a rabbit's liver. In the animal, the chemical breaks down harmful matter. The team found that the new DNA made the plant better at taking in pollution.”2018年,华盛顿大学的科学家们决定改造一种名为pothos或魔鬼常春藤的室内植物,这种植物很受欢迎,也很容易照顾。研究小组根据在兔子肝脏中发现的一种化学物质添加了新的DNA。在动物体内,这种化学物质分解有害物质。研究小组发现,新的DNA使植物更好地吸收污染。可知,基因科技提高了pothos减少空气污染的能力。故选D。
55.考查推理判断。根据最后一段中的"There is more work to be done, but the team at Neoplants plans to use this technology in other types of houseplants. If all goes well, the company hopes people in the US will be able to decorate their homes with pollution-busting plants by next year.”还有更多的工作要做,但Neoplants的团队计划将这项技术应用于其他类型的室内植物。如果一切顺利,该公司希望到明年,美国人就能在家里装饰能破坏污染的植物。可推断,在该体系投入使用之前,还需要进行进一步的改进。故选B。
56.考查推理判断。根据第一段中的"Now researchers have found a way to make plants even better for human health. Using a method called genetic modification(基因编辑), they raised plants that reduce indoor air pollution. ”现在,研究人员发现了一种让植物对人类健康更有益的方法。通过一种叫做基因改造的方法,他们种植了可以减少室内空气污染的植物;以及下文可知,文章讲述了研究人员发现通过基因改造的室内植物,可以更好地降低室内空气污染,因此推断文章最有可能来自科学与技术,故选C。

The match was nearly over and I was almost on my last legs, when I saw a chance. I picked the ball up from Sally and headed for the German penalty area(罚球区).
"Jess!" I could hear Jules shouting as she ran alongside me. "Pass!"
I looked up and hit the ball forward into space. Jules ran on to it, picked it up and hit the ball into the net. It was just as good as Beckham's last-minute goal against Greece!
Two minutes later, the referee(裁判) blew the whistle for full-time. A draw.
"Penalties," Jules said, with a wide smile on her face.
Although it wasn't usual to finish a friendly with penalties, both sides had decided that it would be a nice idea. Joe came on to the pitch(球场) to give us a quick pep talk. Maybe he wouldn't choose me.
"OK, Jules, you go first," Joe said. "Then Mel, Tina, Hannah and—Jess." I tried not to look relieved that I was last. With any luck I wouldn't have to take my turn, if the match was decided before that.
The Germans went first and scored. So did Jules. The Germans scored again. So did Mel. After a third German goal, Tina was looking nervous, but she was lucky because her shot went in off the post.
My stomach was turning over and over as Hannah stepped up to take our fourth penalty. If Hannah scored, it would be all down to the last German penalty-taker—and me.
Hannah rolled the ball smoothly into the left-hand corner of the net. I tried to take deep breaths to calm myself down. If the next German player scored, I'd have to take my turn. I closed my eyes, willing her to fail.
A loud roar around the stadium told me that she'd scored. The referee signaled me to come over and with heavy steps I walked over to place the ball on the spot. I was really tired and my legs felt like they were made of lead. Behind me I could hear the girls yelling encouragement.
I made a superhuman effort and ran towards the ball, but even as I hit it, I knew it wasn't right. I groaned as the ball hit the crossbar and bounced away into the crowd.
57.Why was Jess's kick compared to the one of Beckham's
A.They were both penalty kicks.
B.They both ensured victory of the match.
C.They were both the only goal scored in the match.
D.They were both scored in the last minute of the match.
58.Why was Jess relieved learning that she was the last to take the penalty
A.She had confidence in herself.
B.They already had the game in their hands.
C.She might not be the one to decide the game.
D.The Germans were not good at penalty kicks.
59.How many rounds of penalty did they take in all
A.Four. B.Five. C.Six. D.Seven.

【点评】本题考点涉及细节理解和推理判断两个题型的考查,是一篇故事类阅读,首先要仔细阅读短文,掌握大意,然后结合具体的题目,再读短文,从中找出相关信息,就可以确定正确答案。
57.考查细节理解。根据第三段中的"It was just as good as Beckham's last-minute goal against Greece!"这和贝克汉姆对希腊的绝杀一样好!可知,Jess的这个射门得了分,和贝克汉姆对希腊的绝杀一样好。故选D。
58.考查细节理解。根据第七段"‘OK, Jules, you go first,’ Joe said. ‘Then Mel, Tina, Hannah and—Jess.’ I tried not to look relieved that I was last. With any luck I wouldn't have to take my turn, if the match was decided before that.""好吧,朱尔斯,你先来。"乔说。"然后是梅尔,蒂娜,汉娜和——杰西。"我努力不让自己看起来因为是最后一名而松了一口气。如果比赛在那之前决定的话,运气好的话我就不用轮到我了。可知,得知自己是最后一个罚球,作者感到欣慰的是因为如果在他之前的四轮罚球中比赛结果已经得出,那么就不用他罚球了。故选C。
59.考查细节理解。根据第八段"The Germans went first and scored. So did Jules. The Germans scored again. So did Mel. After a third German goal, Tina was looking nervous, but she was lucky because her shot went in off the post."德国人先进球了。茱尔斯也是。德国队又得分了。梅尔也是。在德国队第三个进球后,蒂娜看起来很紧张,但是她很幸运,因为她的射门偏出了门柱;第十段中的"Hannah rolled the ball smoothly into the left-hand corner of the net. "汉娜把球平稳地滚进网的左边角落;及最后一段中的"I made a superhuman effort and ran towards the ball, but even as I hit it, I knew it wasn't right. I groaned as the ball hit the crossbar and bounced away into the crowd."我做了一个超人的努力,跑向球,但即使我击中它,我知道这是不对的。当球击中横梁并弹到人群中时,我呻吟了一声。可知,作者所在的队总计用了五轮的罚球。故选B。
60.考查推理判断。根据倒数第二段中的"The referee signaled me to come over and with heavy steps I walked over to place the ball on the spot. I was really tired and my legs felt like they were made of lead. Behind me I could hear the girls yelling encouragement."裁判示意我过来,我迈着沉重的步子走过去把球放在原地。我真的很累,我的腿感觉像是铅做的。在我身后,我可以听到女孩们在大声鼓励我。可知,当轮到作者罚球时,作者感到疲惫的同时也对自己缺少自信。故选A。

Countries around the world ring in the new year with unique customs and traditions, often carried out at the strike of midnight. We rounded up ways to bring international New Year's Eve experiences to you.
Japan: Eat toshikoshi soba.
Shiwasu is the end-of-the-year period in Japan, filled by many traditions like traveling to see family and thoroughly cleaning your home. To celebrate New Year's Eve, people eat toshikoshi soba, which can symbolize having a long and lucky life along with a clean break from the year.
Spain: Eat 12 grapes.
The tradition of eating grapes for good luck began in Spain, but it is now practised around the world. When the clock starts ringing at midnight, eat one grape with each ring. It's even luckier if you're wearing special New Year's Eve underwear while eating your grapes. A pair of red underwear can bring you a new year of love, while yellow may bring joy and good luck.
Denmark: Jump off a chair.
In Denmark, one does not simply let the new year happen. You go on the offense(讨厌的东西) and jump into it. Just before midnight, stop what you're doing and get on a chair to do the jump like a Dane would. Should you forget to jump, it's said that you'll bring bad luck for the following year, so please, we are begging you—do not forget to jump.
Russia: Burn, then drink, your wishes.
After a year of unrealized dreams and plans, set your sights on a fresh start with this Russian tradition. Before midnight, write down your wishes for 2023 on a piece of paper, then light the paper on fire. Once it's stopped burning, sprinkle(洒) the wish-filled ashes into a glass of wine and drink up after the clock strikes midnight.
46.What do the four traditions have in common
A.They all last for the whole night.
B.Each is connected to a certain food.
C.They are to celebrate families' reunion.
D.They represent wishes for the new year.
47.Which of the following has spread to other countries
A.Eating toshikoshi soba. B.Eating 12 grapes.
C.Jumping off a chair. D.Burning and drinking your wishes.
48.What's the purpose of the passage
A.To compare four different New Year's Eve traditions.
B.To reveal the origins of four New Year's Eve traditions.
C.To introduce four New Year's Eve traditions to try at home.
D.To describe the popularity of four New Year's Eve traditions.

Is there a Chinese soccer team at the Qatar 2022 World Cup No. But one can't miss Chinese elements(元素) in and around the stadiums in this desert state. One can take a nap in a "mobile hotel" built by Chinese engineers, drink water from ponds dug by Chinese engineers, charge one's mobile phone with electricity produced at the photovoltaic(光电的) power stations built by Chinese companies, and take a bus made in China to move between hotels and stadiums.
Did we forget something Yes, even some stadiums are built by Chinese companies, while the souvenirs(纪念品) one can buy there, too, are made in China.
That's how China has taken part in this World Cup and earlier events, and may do so in the upcoming ones too: by providing products and services to the athletes and audiences alike, thus impressing the world with its technology and products.
While "Made in China" has left its stamp on earlier soccer World Cups and other sports events, what makes the Qatar World Cup unique is the kind of technology China is providing. For example, the Stadium 974, built by Chinese companies, is the first movable and redeploy able (可重构体系的) "green stadium". It can recycle rainwater for future use and turn the garbage collected from the stadium into fertilizer(肥料). Besides, China has built an 800 MW photovoltaic station that continually turns the rich sunshine in the Middle East into electricity for the stadium.
Another reason that has made it possible for Chinese firms to perform well in the World Cup is that China has achieved good economic growth despite a global economic slowdown. While the whole world suffers because of the COVID-19 pandemic and other reasons, Chinese companies have largely continued to function normally.
49.What's the function of the first two paragraphs
A.To lead in the topic of the text.
B.To give an overview of the text.
C.To arouse readers' concern in the topic.
D.To summarize the main idea of the text.
50.What is special about China's influence on the Qatar World Cup
A.The services offered are the best ever.
B.The products provided are of high quality.
C.The souvenirs are designed and made in China.
D.The technology employed are environmental-friendly.
51.What can the underlined phrase "has left its stamp on" in para 4 be replaced by
A.Has been the symbol of. B.Has become necessary for.
C.Has made contributions to. D.Has left an impression on.
52.Which can be a suitable title for the text
A.Qatar: A most successful World Cup
B.You can't miss "China green" in Qatar
C.Another World Cup without Team China
D.Qatar World Cup—"Made in China" again

A loud roar around the stadium told me that she'd scored. The referee signaled me to come over and with heavy steps I walked over to place the ball on the spot. I was really tired and my legs felt like they were made of lead. Behind me I could hear the girls yelling encouragement.
I made a superhuman effort and ran towards the ball, but even as I hit it, I knew it wasn't right. I groaned as the ball hit the crossbar and bounced away into the crowd.
