Malvern is a place close to my heart. When I was growing up, both my parents worked full-time, and I spent every school holiday with my grandmother, who lived in a house in the Malvern Hills, looking out over the Worcestershire land to Bredon Hill in the distance with the Three Counties Showground in the foreground. This is the scene for the RHS Malvern Spring Festival, the opening event of the horticultural (园艺的) calendar.
Garden designer and television presenter Arit Anderson is one of the familiar faces who will be presenting talks over the four days of this year’s show. Anderson didn’t move into garden design until her mid-40s. Raised in a large family by a busy single mum in Hertfordshire, she began her working life as a pharmacy technician (药剂师). From there she moved into fashion seller, working her way up to the head office of a major high street brand. At the same time she trained as a healer. All these different strands equipped her well for a career change to horticulture.
I always said I didn’t want to do fashion at 50, but it came about a little bit earlier. The company was laying off workers and I’d just got my first garden and fallen in love with it. I thought. Let’s do something I love.”
She retrained in garden design at Cape Manor College, and in 2013 won the Fresh Talent competition at the RHS Chelsea Flower Show. Three years later she won a gold medal at RHS Hampton Court for a garden showcasing the need for sustainability in the face of climate change.
Gardening at one with the environment has continued to be an important focus for Anderson and she is currently setting up the Sustainability Landscape Foundation with fellow designer Marian Boswall. Their aim is to cut through the green washing and provide a portal (入口) for professionals and the public to seek out information about how to garden sustainably.
4. Why does the author refer to her childhood experience
A. To show how busy her parents were. B. To introduce the beautiful place — Malvern.
C. To tell the readers how she spent her holiday. D. To remember her grandmother.
5. Which of the following was Arit Anderson’s first job
A. A garden designer. B. A television presenter.
C. A pharmacy technician. D. A fashion seller.
6. What is Anderson devoted to
A. Creating gardens. B. Retraining in garden design.
C. Fighting against climate change. D. Cooperating with big companies.
7. Which of the following does Anderson agree with
A. Greenwashing is really eco-friendly.
B. Everyone should choose new ways to live.
C. It doesn’t matter whether you like your job or not.
D. Gardening should be in harmony with nature.

Homes are usually warmed with radiators (暖气片). Some homes are warmed by floor heating. Now a new way of heating is being developed by using the “wallpaper” on your walls. This wallpaper is not decorative. It actually goes under and not over the wall-electrically heats a room. And this type of heating technology heats objects, even people, instead of the air and this helps you feel warmer.
The electric heating panels (嵌板) which are hidden in the wall are connected to the main electrical panels of your home. Each room can be heated independently through an app, so you do not have to heat unused rooms. It takes around 20 minutes to heat a room.
With rising prices for home heating, the panels seen like the right way to go. “It makes me happy that I don’t depend on gas,” Kris Bilski, an early user, said. About 23 million homes in the UK are connected to the gas grid (网) but the government wants to phase out gas-fired pots by 2035. Home heating is responsible for 17 percent of greenhouse gas materials, so removing fossil fuel-based heating will help the environment.
The new electric heating systems are easy to get for private homes and the company is currently testing the new technology in public housing in some cities. The types being tested can be fitted while people are still living in the apartment so it makes installation a lot easier.
Heating your home with this type of technology does not heat your water, so an additional heating system is required, but an energy efficient heater can be used.
While the wallpaper is greener, electricity in the UK is very costly so it is not an economic way to heat homes unless there is a renewable energy source like solar panels used. Still, reducing the dependence on fossil fuels will go a long way to green the UK and help the country meet its climate targets.
8. What can we infer about a room with this “wallpaper” heater
A. Special radiators are needed in in. B. It’s connected to solar panels.
C. The temperature in it varies less. D. It’s warmer than a normal room.
9. What does the underlined phrase “phase out” in Paragraph 3 mean
A. Slop using. B. Improve greatly.
C. Restore gradually. D. Finish developing.
10. What isl one of the advantages of wallpaper heating system
A. It looks beautiful. B. It’s easy to set up.
C. I heats up instantly. D. It fits all buildings.
11. What is the author’s attitude towards the use of this wallpaper heating system in the UK
A. Doubting. B. Optimistic.
C. Enthusiastic. D. Unfavorable.
D

Malvern is a place close to my heart. When I was growing up, both my parents worked full-time, and I spent every school holiday with my grandmother, who lived in a house in the Malvern Hills, looking out over the Worcestershire land to Bredon Hill in the distance with the Three Counties Showground in the foreground. This is the scene for the RHS Malvern Spring Festival, the opening event of the horticultural (园艺的) calendar.
Garden designer and television presenter Arit Anderson is one of the familiar faces who will be presenting talks over the four days of this year’s show. Anderson didn’t move into garden design until her mid-40s. Raised in a large family by a busy single mum in Hertfordshire, she began her working life as a pharmacy technician (药剂师). From there she moved into fashion seller, working her way up to the head office of a major high street brand. At the same time she trained as a healer. All these different strands equipped her well for a career change to horticulture.
I always said I didn’t want to do fashion at 50, but it came about a little bit earlier. The company was laying off workers and I’d just got my first garden and fallen in love with it. I thought. Let’s do something I love.”
She retrained in garden design at Cape Manor College, and in 2013 won the Fresh Talent competition at the RHS Chelsea Flower Show. Three years later she won a gold medal at RHS Hampton Court for a garden showcasing the need for sustainability in the face of climate change.
Gardening at one with the environment has continued to be an important focus for Anderson and she is currently setting up the Sustainability Landscape Foundation with fellow designer Marian Boswall. Their aim is to cut through the green washing and provide a portal (入口) for professionals and the public to seek out information about how to garden sustainably.

Homes are usually warmed with radiators (暖气片). Some homes are warmed by floor heating. Now, a new way of heating is being developed by using the “wallpaper” on your walls. This wallpaper is not decorative. It actually goes under and not over the wall-electrically heats a room. And this type of heating technology heats objects, even people, instead of the air and this helps you feel warmer.
The electric heating panels (嵌板) which are hidden in the wall are connected to the main electrical panels of your home. Each room can be heated independently through an app, so you do not have to heat unused rooms. It takes around 20 minutes to heat a room.
With rising prices for home heating, the panels seen like the right way to go. “It makes me happy that I don’t depend on gas,” Kris Bilski, an early user, said. About 23 million homes in the UK are connected to the gas grid (网) but the government wants to phase out gas-fired pots by 2035. Home heating is responsible for 17 percent of greenhouse gas materials, so removing fossil fuel-based heating will help the environment.
The new electric heating systems are easy to get for private homes and the company is currently testing the new technology in public housing in some cities. The types being tested can be fitted while people are still living in the apartment so it makes installation a lot easier.
Heating your home with this type of technology does not heat your water, so an additional heating system is required, but an energy efficient heater can be used.
While the wallpaper is greener, electricity in the UK is very costly so it is not an economic way to heat homes unless there is a renewable energy source like solar panels used. Still, reducing the dependence on fossil fuels will go a long way to green the UK and help the country meet its climate targets.
8. What can we infer about a room with this “wallpaper” heater
A. Special radiators are needed in in. B. It’s connected to solar panels.
C. The temperature in it varies less. D. It’s warmer than a normal room.
9. What does the underlined phrase “phase out” in Paragraph 3 mean
A. Slop using. B. Improve greatly.
C. Restore gradually. D. Finish developing.
10. What isl one of the advantages of wallpaper heating system
A. It looks beautiful. B. It’s easy to set up.
C. I heats up instantly. D. It fits all buildings.
11. What is the author’s attitude towards the use of this wallpaper heating system in the UK
A. Doubting. B. Optimistic.
C. Enthusiastic. D. Unfavorable.
【答案】8. C 9. A 10. B 11. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是说明文。介绍了埋在墙里的壁纸式电暖气。
【详解】1. 推理判断题。根据第一段中的“And this type of heating technology heats objects, even people, instead of the air and this helps you feel warmer(这种加热技术可以加热物体,甚至是人,而不是空气,这会让你感觉更暖和。)”可知,这种壁纸取暖系统加热物体甚至人体,而不加热空气。由此推断,室内的气温变化相对较小。故选C。
2. 词句猜测题。根据下文中的“so removing fossil fuel-based heating will help the environment(因此,消除基于化石燃料的供暖将有助于环境)”可知,英国政府决定取消化石燃料。所以此处应该指停止使用燃气锅炉。划线短语与A项“停止使用”意思相近。故选A。
3. 细节理解题。根据第四段中的“The types being tested can be fitted while people are still living in the apartment so it makes installation a lot easier.(被测试的类型可以在人们还住在公寓里的时候安装,所以安装起来容易得多)”可知,这种壁纸暖气系统安装方便。故选B。
4. 推理判断题。根据最后一段“While the wallpaper is greener, electricity in the UK is very costly so it is not an economic way to heat homes unless there is a renewable energy source like solar panels used. Still, reducing the dependence on fossil fuels will go a long way to green the UK and help the country meet its climate targets.(虽然墙纸更环保,但在英国,电力非常昂贵,所以除非使用太阳能电池板等可再生能源,否则这不是一种经济的方式来为家庭供暖。尽管如此,减少对化石燃料的依赖将对英国的绿色发展大有帮助,并有助于该国实现其气候目标。)”可知,英国电价很高,除非有可代替的再生能源,否则,这种取暖系统并不经济。由此判断,作者持疑虑的态度。故选A。

【36题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:他想去吃烧烤,却被四家不同的餐馆告知没有座位。分析句子结构可知,空处作非谓语动词,结合语意,黄杨被四家餐馆告知没有座位,这是意料之外的结果,应用only to do表示意料之外的结果,且此处表示“黄杨被告知没有座位”,空处应用不定式的被动式,即to be told。故填to be told。
【37题详解】
考查冠词。句意:由于社交媒体的推荐,淄博烧烤一夜之间取得了成功,大批游客涌入城市。此处表示“一次一夜之间的成功”,空处应用不定冠词表示泛指,overnight是元音音素开头的单词,前边应用不定冠词an。故填an。
【38题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:由于社交媒体的推荐,淄博烧烤一夜之间取得了成功,大批游客涌入城市。分析句子结构可知,空处作非谓语动词,crowd与逻辑主语large numbers of visitors之间是主动关系,应用现在分词形式crowding作宾语补足语。故填crowding。

【41题详解】
考查介词。句意:新的旅游产品包括特别的烧烤主题巴士服务,将游客从火车站直接带到烧烤餐厅,烧烤主题旅游路线和免费进入当地景点。have free access to some place表示“免费进入某地”,所以空处应用介词to,符合题意。故填to。

【答案】Practicing Writing After Class
Writing is one of the English skills, so the students in our class are trying to improve it. Here are my findings. Most students often recite excellent compositions, which can help develop a sense of language. Some like writing diaries every day, while others sometimes write letters to foreign e-friends.
I think these are all good ways to improve English writing ability as long as they suit us. Whatever ways we choose, we all need to be careful. In my opinion, besides those ways, we can contribute regularly to the school English newspaper. While we practice writing, we should also listen, speak and read more, because all skills reinforce each other.
