For many people around the world, the recent pandemic has meant having to work from home. Their work in offices has been stopped for a period. This means different working practices, which have advantages and disadvantages for employees. But the big question is, will they ever see their offices again
Home working has made people realize what tasks they can perform at home, rather than standing the rush hour to the office to do the same thing. It has given them more time with the family; they've been sleeping better and have saved money by not travelling or buying lunches. And recent research suggests the majority of people working from home are just as productive.
For some people, this could be a permanent arrangement. In the UK, fifty of the biggest employers questioned by the BBC have said they have no plans to return all staff to the office full-time in the near future. One main reason is that firms can't provide enough space for large numbers of staff while social distancing rules are still in place. But the BBC also heard from some smaller businesses who are deciding to give up their offices altogether.
Other bigger companies are also looking at shutting offices to save money as many jobs can be performed at home. Peter Cheese, head of the Chartered Institute of Personnel and Development, told the BBC: "We're at a moment of real change in the world of work, driven by big existential problems."
But this isn't great news for everyone. Some employees can feel lonely at home, and there's less opportunity to network or learn from other people, especially if they're new staff. Also, city centers may suffer most from a change in working habits. Shops and cafes rely on the footfall of office workers, and without them, they face closure. So it may be too early to say where our desks will be permanently located.
24、What is the second paragraph mainly about
A. The discomfort of home working.
B. The costs of home working.
C. The benefits of home working.
D. The bad influence of home working.
25、What can we know about the workers in the UK
A. Fifty percent of them will work part-time.
B. Workers of smaller businesses will be unemployed.
C. They will work in larger offices in the future.
D. Some of them will continue to work at home.
26、What kind of employee is more likely to dislike working from home
A. New employees. B. Old employees.
C. Employees of big companies. D. Employees of small companies.
27、What's the author's attitude to the future of home working
A. Unconcerned. B. Uncertain. C. Optimistic. D. Negative.
C
Technology is supposed to make our lives easier, allowing us to do things more quickly and efficiently. But too often it seems to make things harder. This increase in complexity, often called "feature creep," costs consumers time, but it also costs business money. Product returns in the U.S. cost a hundred billion dollars a year, and a recent study by Elke den Ouden, of Philips Electronics, found that at least half of returned products have nothing wrong with them. Consumers just couldn't figure out how to use panies now know a great deal about problems of usability and consumer behavior, so why is it that feature creep proves unstoppable
In part, feature creep is the product of the so-called internal-audience problem: the people who design and sell product are not the ones who buy and use them, and what engineers and marketers think is important is not necessarily what's best for consumers. The engineers tend not to notice when more options make a product less usable. And marketing and sales departments see each additional feature as a new selling point, and a new way to attract customers.
You might think, then, that companies could avoid feature creep by just paying attention to what customers really want. But that's where the trouble begins, because although consumers find overloaded gadgets( 配件)unmanageable, they also find them attractive. It turns out that when we look at a new product in a store we tend to think that the more features there are, the better. It is only once we get the product home and try to use it that we realize the virtues of simplicity.
It seems strange that we don't expect feature tiredness and thus avoid it. But, as numerous studies have shown, people are not, in general, good at predicting what will make them happy in the future. As a result, we will pay more for more features because we systematically overestimate how often we'll use them. We also overestimate our ability to figure out how a complicated product works.
The fact that buyers want bells and whistles but users want something clear and simple creates an unusual problem for companies. A product that doesn't have enough features may fail to catch our eye in the store. But a product with too many features is likely to annoy consumers.
28、What does the first paragraph mainly discuss
A. The benefits brought by the advanced technology.
B. The recent study conducted by Elke den Ouden.
C. The loss caused by the feature creep of technology.
D. Many problems of usability known by the consumers.
29、Which of the following is true according to the second paragraph
A. It is the audience problem that leads to feature creep.
B. What matters to designers and marketers is not good for consumers.
C. Feature creep brings blessings to the people in marketing and sales.
D. The engineers will not pay attention to the quality of the product
30、What do we know about the buyers in paragraph 4
A. They are deeply convinced that all the products work in simple way.
B. They are fed up with the more and more features of the products.
C. They are too confident of their ability to use the complicated products.
D. They are quite clear about the products which will make them happy.
31、What can be a suitable title for the text
A. Saying No to Feature Creep is No Easy Thing
B. Feature-heavy Products in Demand
C. The More Features, the Better
D. Simplicity Outweighs Complexity
D
Bacteria are an annoying problem for astronauts. The microorganisms(微生物) from our bodies grow uncontrollably on surfaces of the International Space Station, so astronauts spend hours cleaning them up each week. How is NASA overcoming this very tiny big problem It’s turning to a bunch of high school kids. But not just any kids. It’s depending on NASA HUNCH high school class, like the one science teachers Gene Gordon and Donna Himmelberg lead at Fairport High School in Fairport, New York.
HUNCH is designed to connect high school classrooms with NASA engineers. For the past two years, Gordon’s students have been studying ways to kill bacteria in zero gravity, and they think they’re close to a solution. "We don’t give the students any breaks. They have to do it just like NASA engineers," says Florence Gold, a project manager.
"There are no tests," Gordon says. "There is no graded homework. There almost are no grades, other than 'Are you working towards your goal ' Basically, it’s 'I’ve got to produce this product and then, at the end of year, present it to NASA.' Engineers come and really do an in-person review, and...it’s not a very nice thing at time. It’s a hard business review of your product."
Gordon says the HUNCH program has an impact on college admissions and practical life skills. "These kids are so absorbed in their studies that I just sit back. I don’t teach." And that annoying bacteria Gordon says his students are emailing daily with NASA engineers about the problem, readying a workable solution to test in space.
32.What do we know about the bacteria in the International Space Station
A.They are hard to get rid of. B.They lead to air pollution.
C.They appear in different forms. D.They damage the instruments.
33.What is the purpose of the HUNCH program
A.To strengthen teacher-student relationships.
B.To sharpen students' communication skills.
C.To allow students to experience zero gravity.
D.To link space technology with school education.
34.What do the NASA engineers do for the students in the program
A.Check their product. B.Guide project designs.
C.Adjust work schedules. D.Grade their homework.
35.What is the best title for the text
A.NASA: The Home of Astronauts. B.Space: The Final Homework Frontier.
C.Nature: An Outdoor Classroom. D.HUNCH: A College Admission Reform.

21
解析:1.细节理解题。根据Artau Aragon Towers介绍内容The Ariau Amazon Towers hotel lets you sleep in a tree house.(阿里乌亚马逊塔酒店让你睡在树屋。)可知,这家旅馆最大的特点就是房间设在了树里。故选:D。
22.细节理解题。根据Artau Aragon Towers介绍内容starting at $300 one night for each person for a regular room and going all the way up to $3000 for the Tarzan Suite.(价格在300-3000美元之间。);根据The Ice Hotel介绍内容starting at $318 one night for each person.(最低318美元。);根据Propeller Island介绍内容starting at just $91 a night, and an additional(另外)person for only 20 extra dollars.(每晚91美元,另一个人只需加20美元。)可知,两个人住进这三间旅馆间的其中一间的话,最少要支付111美元。故选:C。
23.推理判断题。根据文章最后For information about other cool hotels In the world, visit the web site: http:// www. .可知,要找其它一些很酷的旅馆,需要登陆这个网站htlp://www. .故选:A。
24、答案:C
解析:主旨大意题。根据文章第二段“Home working has made people realize what tasks they can perform at home, rather than standing the rush hour to the office to do the same thing. It has given them more time with the family; they've been sleeping better and have saved money by not travelling or buying lunches. And recent research suggests the majority of people working from home are just as productive.(在家工作让人们意识到他们可以在家 里完成什么任务, 而不是站在上下班高峰期去办公室做同样的事情。这让他们有更多的时问陪伴家人; 他们的睡眠质量更好了,而且通过不旅行和不买午餐节省了钱。最近的研究表明,大多数在家工作的人也一样高效)”可知, 第二段主要讲述的是居家办公的好处。故选C。
25、答案:D
解析:推理判断题。根据文章第三段“In the UK, fifty of the biggest employers questioned by the BBC have said they have no plans to return all staff to the office full-time in the near future.(在英国, 接受BBC采访的50家最大雇主表示, 他们没有在近期让所有员工全职上班的计划)”可推断, 一些公司并不打算近期让员工去办公室工作, 换句话说, 他们打算继续让员工居家办公。故选D。
26、答案:A
解析:细节理解题。根据文章最后一段“But this isn't great news for everyone. Some employees can feel lonely at home, and there's less opportunity to network or learn from other people, especially if they're new staff.(但是这并不是对每个人来说都是好消息。有些员工在家会感到孤独, 而且很少有机会与他人交流或向他人学习, 尤其是新员工)”可知, 有些员工在家会孤独, 新员工也没有机会与人交流和学习。所以对新员工而言, 这并不是好消息。故选A。
27、答案:B
解析:推理判断题。文章作者在第一段捉出“This means different working practices, which have advantages and disadvantages for employees.(这意味着不同的工作方法, 这对员工有好处也有坏处)”、第二段说明了居家工作的好处、最后一段又提及了居家工作不好的方面。特别是最后一句话“So it may be too early to say where our desks will be permanently located.(因此, 现在说我们的办公桌将永久安置在哪里可能还为时过早)”。由此可以判断, 作者其实也感到不太确定。故选B。
28、答案:C
解析:主旨大意题。根据第一段内容,特别是“This increase in complexity, often called "feature creep," costs consumers time, but it also costs business money.”可知,“功能蔓延”不但消耗消费者的时间,而且还消耗企业的资金,由此可知,本段主要讲的是技术的“功能蔓延”造成的损失,故C项正确。
29答案:C
解析:细节理解题。根据第二段中的“And marketing and sales departments see each additional feature as a new selling point, and a new way to attract customers.”可知,营销和销售人员把它看作一个新的卖点,一个吸引顾客的新方法,由此可知,“功能蔓延”给营销和销售人员带来福音,故C项正确。
30答案:C
解析:细节理解题。根据第四段中的“We also overestimate our ability to figure out how a complicated product works.”可知,购买者高估了自己理解复杂产品工作原理的能力,也就是说他们对自己使用复杂产品的能力过于自信,故C项正确。
31答案:A
解析:主旨大意题。通读全文,特别是根据第一段中的“so why is it that feature creep proves unstoppable ”可知,本文从设计者和消费者的角度介绍了科技的“功能蔓延”是不可阻挡的,拒绝“功能蔓延”不是一件容易的事情,故A项正确。
32答案:1-4.ADAB

⑤推理判断题。根据主题句Prepare a disaster supply toolbox.(准备一个灾难补给工具箱。)可知,在准备灾难应急箱时,水和食物应是必需品。G项(准备一些足够食用三天的水和食物)符合语境,贴合主旨。故选G。

语法填空
解析:①考查时态语态和主谓一致。句意: 2021年12月, 《妇女权益保障法修正案(草案)》提交全国人民代表大会常务委员会进行首次审议。分析句子可知,submit (提交)是句中谓语动词,与主语a draft revision(修正案)之间是被动关系,句中有时间状语In December, 2021,讲述过去的事情,应使用一般过去时态,又因主语是单数名词,所以谓语动词也应使用单数形式。综上,谓语应用一般过去时的被动语态,单数形式。故填was submitted。
②考查非谓语动词。句意:在过去的30年里,这是自1992年以来对法律的首次重大修改,为确保全国范围内的男女平等发挥了重要作用。分析句子可知,mark(标志)作后置定语修饰名词the law,应用非谓语动词,与其逻辑主语the law之间是主动关系,所以应用现在分词,表示主动。故填marking。
③考查副词。句意:全国人大社会建设委员会官员何怡婷在向人大代表解释草案时表示,“但一些地区的妇女权利没有得到有效保障,一些老问题仍然存在。”根据句意,此处修饰谓语动词haven't been guaranteed,应用副词fictively, 意为“有效地”。故填effectively.
④考查冠词。句意:全国人大社会建设委员会官员何怡婷在向人大代表解释草案时表示, "但一些地区的妇女权利没有得到有效保障,一些老问题仍然存在。"可数名词official([官员)在句中表示"一名官员", 泛指,前面应使用不定冠词,又因空格后official的发音是元音音素开头,所以应使用不定冠词an限定。故填an。
⑤考查介词。句意:该修正案增加了对妇女歧视的定义,并规定国家应采取必要措施,逐步完善对妇女权益的保护。分析可知,此处应填入介词of构成名词所有格,a definition of "discrimination(歧视) against women"对歧视妇女的定义。故填of。
⑥考查非谓语动词。句意:该修正案增加了对妇女歧视的定义,并规定国家应采取必要措施,逐步完善对妇女权益的保护。根据句意,"(improve) the protection of their rights and interests"是"take necessary measures"的目的,应用动词不定式,作目的状语。故填to improve。
⑦考查名词复数。句意:其中一项提议是要求地方各级政府确保公共场所的女厕比男厕多,这在新浪微博上引发了热议。"one of the+可数名词复数"是固定短语,意"……之一", 应用名词proposal的复数形式。故填proposals。
⑧考查定语从句。句意:其中一项提议是要求地方各级政府确保公共场所的女厕比男厕多,这在新浪微博上引发了热议。分析句子可知,空格引导非限制性定语从句,修饰指物的先行词One of the proposals,在从句中作主语,应用关系代词which, 故填which。
⑨考查比较级。句意:研究显示,女性上厕所的平均时间为249秒,远高于男性的170秒。根据句意和句中介词than可知,应使用比较级,表"此……多"。故填more。
⑩考查非谓语动词。句意:研究显示,女性上厕所的平均时间为249秒,远高于男性的170秒。分析句子可知,spend(花……时间)作后置定语修饰名词seconds,应用非谓语动词,与其逻辑主语seconds,之间是被动关系,且所以应用过去分词,表被动。故填spent。
