Retired couple May Proctor, 71, and her husband Rod, 73, have transformed their garden into a fairyland(仙境) themed light show for local kids to enjoy. May and Rod came up with the concept last year but this time is to be the biggest display yet. The mystical (神秘的) garden is open for children to walk through and upon entry they will find a “fairy world” filled with pizza shops, very small shops and a magical forest. This year the home itself has been transformed according to Alice in Wonderland.
May says she is a fairy fan and that the huge amount of decoration is worth it for the magic. “I’ve always liked to make a bit of a magical garden, but this year I’ve just been excited.” she said.“Especially it’s just magic at night, absolutely amazing.”
An ex-dinner lady May Proctor, the native, said she and her husband never planned on doing the light display this year. Then as autumn approached, the couple felt that they had to show something. So they decided again to go on to create a light display.
The topic for this year’s fairy display—Fairy Lane in Wonderland—is inspired by the mystical world of Lewis Carroll’s Alice in Wonderland.
Throughout the house and garden, visitors will go down a rabbit hole into a fantastic kingdom. “Last year it was just outside, but this year it’s inside, and it’s just amazing,” May explained.
“Outside, I’ve made my own fairies and they were hung with the flowers, so it looks like a real Christmas fairyland. But inside, we’ve got some stage properties—so we’ve got a mirror with all Alice in Wonderland features around it. The kids absolutely love it, but I only let ten to twelve inside at a time due to the pandemic (流行病), where they can sit down and have their pictures taken.”

A new study, published in The Journal of Experimental Psychology, found that communication interactions that included voice, like a phone call or video chat, created stronger social bonds than communication through typing, like text messaging or email.
In the study, researchers used various experiments to gauge (测量) connectedness. In one, they asked 200 people to make predictions about what it would be like to reconnect with an old friend by email or by phone and then assigned people at random to do one or the other. Although people predicted that a phone call would be more awkward, hearing someone’s voice actually made the experience better. However, people who participated in the experiment reported that they did form a significantly stronger bond with their old friend on the phone versus email, and they did not feel more awkward.
In another experiment, the researchers had strangers connected by either texting, talking over video chat, or talking using only audio(声音). They found that both forms of voice communication — whether video or audio only — made the strangers feel significantly more connected than when they communicated via text.
Sabrina Romanoff, a Harvard trained clinical psychologist based in New York City, says people tend to text or email instead of calling because of convenience, as they see it as a controlled form of communication where they can express thoughts without being disturbed.
Romanoff says that in reality, texting can make it hard to determine the true meaning behind a conversation. A phone call is actually more convenient when considering the net effects of the message. In face-to-face communication, people are able to gauge the meaning behind the content more easily without thinking the endless possible meanings behind words and punctuation.
8. What is the purpose of the study
A. To encourage people to let their fingers do the talking.
B. To introduce the effects of verbal and non-verbal communications.
C. To show the strengths and weaknesses of making phone calls.
D. To compare connectedness of communication through voice and typing.
9. Which way will make you feel more connected if you miss a friend far away
A. Typing a letter. B. Sending an email.
C. Texting a message. D. Having a video chat.
10. What’s the main idea of the last paragraph
A. It’s easy to express the true meaning of a conversation by texting.
B. A phone call can convey information more exactly than texting.
C. It’s not a good way to communicate face to face.
D. Texting is more convenient than calling.
11. What is the advantage of making phone calls over texting
A. Being more formal. B. Being less awkward.
C. Being more straightforward. D. Being less expensive.
A herd of 15 Asian elephants has been making its way North across China since March 2020, and nobody is quite sure why.
The herd has covered more than 500 kilometers since they wandered out of their home in the Xishuangbanna National Nature Reserve, located in southwestern China along its border with Laos and Myanmar. Authorities in China have tried to keep the animals away from populated areas with piles of fruit and vegetables and physical barriers. The herd was spotted last week on the outskirts (郊区) of Kunming.
“One potential explanation for the elephant migration is overcrowding in the nature reserve these animals once called home,” says George, an elephant specialist at Colorado State University. Asian elephants are endangered, only around 300 surviving in China, but the population living in the reserves of the Xishuangbanna region has been growing in recent years. George says this wayward (任性的) group might have set out to find a new home with less competition for resources.
“We’ve seen elephants expanding their range for decades now as their populations increase, and they search for more food for the growing herd,” says Becky Chen, a conservation scientist at the Zoological Society of London who has studied elephant-human interactions. Other experts wonder if this is an example of a herd being misled by an inexperienced leader, or if the decision to roam was an almost random choice.
Authorities have instructed residents along the route to stay inside if the elephants are nearby and avoid disturbing the herd. If the animals can’t be turned back to their former forested home, scientists and land managers may need to make provisions (准备) for the elephants to live permanently in Kunming.
Chen says she hopes the situation will raise awareness of human-elephant conflict and elephant conservation. “What we have to learn is not how to solve the problem, but how to increase tolerance,” she says. “How can we use this event to let everybody pay attention to coexistence between people and animals ”
12. Which is the possible reason for elephant migration
A. The population of people. B. Inhabitant loss.
C Annual migration. D. An act of a misleading head.
13. What does the underlined word “roam” in paragraph 4 mean
A. Settle. B. Wander.
C. Leave. D. Accompany.
14. What may Chen agree with
A. It takes long to live in harmony with animals.
B. It is important to reflect on how to live with animals.
C. The increasing elephants threaten human’s settlement.
D. The endangered elephants migrate due to human development.
15. Which section does the story most likely come from in a newspaper
A. Nature. B. Health.
C. Entertainment. D. Life.

47. 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。
It was my twelfth birthday, and what I really wanted was a new bicycle. But I knew my family couldn’t afford one.
A new bike was just a dream, so I wanted a nightstand (床头柜). I figured that at least I would have a safe place to keep my private things. So I asked my parents for a nightstand with lockable drawers (抽屉).
We went to the secondhand furniture store and found an old, dark brown nightstand. It didn’t look too cool, but at least it had drawers that I could keep locked. I decided that I would paint it to make it look better.
After we took it home, I was getting ready to paint it. When I pulled the drawers out, I felt something stuck (卡住) at the back of the bottom drawer. I reached in all the way to the back and was surprised to find a bag.
When opening the bag, I realized that there were some papers in it which were some kind of official-looking documents (文件). And beneath were a bunch of dollar bills! Talk about finding a treasure! And on my birthday!
I went ahead and read the papers, which turned out to be a will (遗嘱). Some old lady was leaving her savings to her son and grandchildren. The old lady must have died and nobody knew the money. Her family donated the nightstand to the secondhand furniture store and it was now in my hands.
I counted the money, over 1,000 dollars in total. I was going crazy. With this money I could buy the coolest bicycle. I could even buy bicycles for my younger brothers. Maybe I could also get my parents a car.
What a dilemma! I could keep it and get all kinds of things for myself and my family. Or I could give it all back. “Somebody helps me with this!” I begged. But I really didn’t need anyone else to give me the answer. I already knew right from wrong. I decided not to fail this test. It was a test of honor - my honor.
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。
I called my family into my bedroom and showed them what I had found.

推理判断题。根据第一段“A new study, published in The Journal of Experimental Psychology found that communication interactions that included voice, like a phone call or video chat, created stronger social bonds than communication through typing, like text messaging or email.(发表在《实验心理学杂志》上的一项新研究发现,包括语音在内的交流互动,如电话或视频聊天,比打字,如短信或电子邮件,能产生更强的社会联系)”以及第二段中“In the study, researchers used various experiments to gauge connectedness.(在这项研究中,研究人员使用了各种实验来衡量连通性)”可知,这项研究的目的是比较语音和打字沟通的连通性。故选D。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“In one, they asked 200 people to make predictions about what it would be like to reconnect with an old friend by email or by phone and then assigned people at random to do one or the other. Although people anticipated that a phone call would be more awkward, hearing someone's voice actually made the experience better.(在一项研究中,他们让200人预测通过电子邮件或电话与老朋友重新联系是什么感觉,然后随机分配这些人去做其中之一。虽然人们认为打电话会更尴尬,但听到别人的声音实际上会让通话感觉更好)”可知,如果你想念远方的朋友,视频聊天这种方式会让你们感觉更亲近。故选D。
【10题详解】
主旨大意题。根据最后一段“Romanoff says that in reality, texting can make it hard to determine the true meaning behind a conversation. A phone call is actually more convenient when considering the net effects of the message. In face-to-face communication, people are able to gauge the meaning behind the content more easily without thinking the endless possible meanings behind words and punctuation.(罗曼诺夫说,实际上,发短信会让人很难确定谈话背后的真正含义。考虑到信息的净效果,打电话实际上更方便。在面对面的交流中,人们可以更容易地判断内容背后的含义,而不必考虑单词和标点符号背后无数可能的含义)”可知,最后一段的主旨是打电话比发短信更能准确地传达信息。故选B。
【11题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段“Romanoff says that in reality, texting can make it hard to determine the true meaning behind a conversation. A phone call is actually more convenient when considering the net effects of the message. Each party is more present, and therefore, able to gauge the meaning behind the content without ruminating on the endless possible meanings behind words and punctuation.( Romanoff说,在现实生活中,发短信会让人很难判断谈话背后的真实意思。考虑到信息的净效应,打电话实际上更方便。每一方都更在场,因此,能够衡量内容背后的意义,而不必推敲词和标点背后的无尽可能含义)”可知,相比发短信,打电话的优势在于更直截了当。故选C。
A herd of 15 Asian elephants has been making its way North across China since March 2020, and nobody is quite sure why.
The herd has covered more than 500 kilometers since they wandered out of their home in the Xishuangbanna National Nature Reserve, located in southwestern China along its border with Laos and Myanmar. Authorities in China have tried to keep the animals away from populated areas with piles of fruit and vegetables and physical barriers. The herd was spotted last week on the outskirts (郊区) of Kunming.
“One potential explanation for the elephant migration is overcrowding in the nature reserve these animals once called home,” says George, an elephant specialist at Colorado State University. Asian elephants are endangered, only around 300 surviving in China, but the population living in the reserves of the Xishuangbanna region has been growing in recent years. George says this wayward (任性的) group might have set out to find a new home with less competition for resources.
“We’ve seen elephants expanding their range for decades now, as their populations increase, and they search for more food for the growing herd,” says Becky Chen, a conservation scientist at the Zoological Society of London who has studied elephant-human interactions. Other experts wonder if this is an example of a herd being misled by an inexperienced leader, or if the decision to roam was an almost random choice.
Authorities have instructed residents along the route to stay inside if the elephants are nearby and avoid disturbing the herd. If the animals can’t be turned back to their former forested home, scientists and land managers may need to make provisions (准备) for the elephants to live permanently in Kunming.
Chen says she hopes the situation will raise awareness of human-elephant conflict and elephant conservation. “What we have to learn is not how to solve the problem, but how to increase tolerance,” she says. “How can we use this event to let everybody pay attention to coexistence between people and animals ”
12. Which is the possible reason for elephant migration
A. The population of people. B. Inhabitant loss.
C. Annual migration. D. An act of a misleading head.
13. What does the underlined word “roam” in paragraph 4 mean
A Settle. B. Wander.
C. Leave. D. Accompany.
14. What may Chen agree with
A. It takes long to live in harmony with animals.
B. It is important to reflect on how to live with animals.
C. The increasing elephants threaten human’s settlement.
D. The endangered elephants migrate due to human development.
15. Which section does the story most likely come from in a newspaper
A. Nature. B. Health.
C. Entertainment. D. Life.
【答案】12. D 13. B 14. B 15. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。文章主要报道了2020年3月以来,15头亚洲象一直向北迁徙这件事,并探讨了这件事背后的原因,引发了人们对于人与动物和谐共生这一话题的思考。
【详解】1.细节理解题。根据第四段内容“Other experts wonder if this is an example of a herd being misled by an inexperienced leader, or if the decision to roam was an almost random choice.(其他专家想知道,是否这是一群被一个没有经验的领导者误导的一个例子,还是这个漫游的决定是随机的选择)”可知,象群离开西双版纳保护区可能是被缺乏经验的领头象误导了,也有可能是象群随机的选择。故选D。
2. 词义猜测题。根据第二段第一句中的“The herd has covered more than 500 kilometers since they wandered out of their home in the Xishuangbanna National Nature Reserve.(自从走出西双版纳国家自然保护区的家以来,象群已经走了500多公里)”可知,从象群漫步离开西双版纳国家级自然保护区以来,它们已经走了500多公里;再结合画线词所在句“Other experts wonder if this is an example of a herd being misled by an inexperienced leader, or if the decision to roam was an almost random choice.(其他专家想知道,是否这是一群被一个没有经验的领导者误导的一个例子,还是这个漫游的决定是随机的选择)”可知,画线词所在句表示其他专家想要知道这是否是一群被一个没有经验的领头象误导的例子,或者说漫游的决定可能是(象群)一个随机的选择。由此可推知,roam应意为“漫步,漫游”,与B项意思相近。故选B。
3. 推理判断题。根据最后一段最后一句“How can we use this event to let everybody pay attention to coexistence between people and animals (我们如何利用这个事件让每个人注意人与动物的共存)”可知,Chen呼吁人们关注人与动物和谐共生。由此可推知,Chen可能认同“重要的是反思如何与动物共生”这一说法。故选B。
4. 推理判断题。通读全文特别是第一段内容“A herd of 15 Asian elephants has been making its way North across China since March 2020, and nobody is quite sure why.(自2020年3月以来,15头亚洲象一直在向北穿越中国,但没有人知道原因)”可知,本文主要介绍了15头亚洲象向北迁徙这一事件,借此呼吁人与动物和谐共生。由此可推知,本文最有可能出自自然版块。故选A。

(这通常伴随着信任,所以要经常交流你的感受,即使这是让你心烦意乱的事情,而不是尖叫,和他们交谈。如果他们做了什么让你不开心的事,用尊重的方式告诉他们。重要的是要与他们沟通,而不是把它藏在心里。)”可知沟通在双方关系中很重要,空处位于段首,应是本段小标题,所以空处应该讲的是要保证良好的沟通,E选项“Make sure the communication is good.(确保沟通良好。)”概括全段内容,符合上下文语境。故选E项。

47. 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。
It was my twelfth birthday, and what I really wanted was a new bicycle. But I knew my family couldn’t afford one.
A new bike was just a dream, so I wanted a nightstand (床头柜). I figured that at least I would have a safe place to keep my private things. So I asked my parents for a nightstand with lockable drawers (抽屉).
We went to the secondhand furniture store and found an old, dark brown nightstand. It didn’t look too cool, but at least it had drawers that I could keep locked. I decided that I would paint it to make it look better.
After we took it home, I was getting ready to paint it. When I pulled the drawers out, I felt something stuck (卡住) at the back of the bottom drawer. I reached in all the way to the back and was surprised to find a bag.
When opening the bag, I realized that there were some papers in it which were some kind of official-looking documents (文件). And beneath were a bunch of dollar bills! Talk about finding a treasure! And on my birthday!
I went ahead and read the papers, which turned out to be a will (遗嘱). Some old lady was leaving her savings to her son and grandchildren. The old lady must have died and nobody knew the money. Her family donated the nightstand to the secondhand furniture store and it was now in my hands.
I counted the money, over 1,000 dollars in total. I was going crazy. With this money I could buy the coolest bicycle. I could even buy bicycles for my younger brothers. Maybe I could also get my parents a car.
What a dilemma! I could keep it and get all kinds of things for myself and my family. Or I could give it all back. “Somebody helps me with this!” I begged. But I really didn’t need anyone else to give me the answer. I already knew right from wrong. I decided not to fail this test. It was a test of honor - my honor.

【答案】 I called my family into my bedroom and showed them what I had found. Eyes caught by the incredible bunch of dollar bills at once, they held their breath uncontrollably, frozen with shock. I told them I wanted to give them all back, and undoubtedly, I got their support. So we tuned to the secondhand furniture store owner for help. Looking through the donation records, the owner found the son’s telephone number. We got in touch with him right away, told him about the will and the money and made an appointment with him.
Several days later, the old lady’s son and his wife came to my house. Tears welled up in the man’s eyes when he saw the money and the papers, which apparently brought back his memories about his dead mother. Then the couple expressed their sincere gratitude to us. They said they were in big financial trouble now and my act of honesty was a timely help, not only giving them hope but also strengthening their faith. I had never felt better. No new bicycle could make me feel as good about myself as I felt that day. I passed an extremely important test of my honor.
