I was a shy girl. I didn’t even like to answer the telephone for fear I’d have to talk to somebody I didn’t know. I enjoyed the loneliness of exploring nature. However, at school I had to spend all day in the company of others. My escape was reading. I spend a lot of time studying and was rewarded with good grades. My only failure was Spanish — I’d get all As on my written work and tests, but Ds and Fs on the spoken part.
Eventually I went to college. During my third year of college, I had enough of being shy and determined to change my outlook and behavior. One day while at school, I noticed an advertisement for positions on the local classical music radio station. I had grown up listening to classical music, and I could easily pronounce names such as Tchaikovsky, Albinoni, and Chopin.
I had absolutely no background in radio, and absolutely no hope of getting the job. The idea of talking to thousands of listeners in “radio land” terrified me. However, I luckily survived the interview. I was given brief descriptions of symphonies (交响乐) and a public service announcement to read, and a list of composers’ names to pronounce. It wasn’t hard for me. I left the recording session (录音时段) with a sense of relief and a sense of accomplishment. About two weeks later I actually landed the job. It was a challenging job, but I grew to enjoy it greatly. I began to feel comfortable talking to people.
Although I now spend many hours each week talking with people, I’m still basically a quiet person. Perhaps it is my soft voice and my quiet nature that helps draw people out as they respond to my questions as I interview them. My former shyness is a fortune, as I can relate to people who feel discomfortable when they talk to newspaper reporters. I still enjoy moments of loneliness and the peace found in nature. But I’m also glad I decided to make a change in my life that has opened many doors and opportunities that I never knew existed.
4. What do we learn about the author
A. She didn’t like reading. B. She enjoyed shyness in nature.
C. She wasn’t interested in music. D. She didn’t work hard enough.
5. How did the author feel before the interview
A. Very excited. B. Pretty confident.
C. Highly confused. D. Extremely anxious.
6. What does the author later think of her quiet personality
A. It makes others feel less comfortable. B. It is beneficial for her challenging job.
C. It prevents her being a newspaper reporter. D. It draws a negative response from audiences.
7. The text mainly focuses on the author’s ________.
A. desire to find her true self B. feeling about being a radio hostess
C. story of exploring the meaning of life D. experience and feeling of overcoming shyness
C
After months of expectation and secrecy, the official mascot (吉祥物) of the 2022 Winter Olympic Games－a giant panda-inspired cartoon character－made its first public debut with cheers at Beijing's Shougang Ice Hockey Arena.
The panda is named “Bing Dwen Dwen” in Chinese. Bing means “ice” in Chinese, while Dwen Dwen suggests “health and cleverness”－characteristics also shared by pandas. Pandas are perhaps the most recognized animal species in China, organizers said.
“Pandas combine China's traditional culture and its modern appearance together with winter sports elements in a fascinating image (形象) that shows our great expectations for the Games and shows that we welcome the world,” said Beijing Mayor Chen Jining, who also serves as an executive president on the organizing committee.
“I have already seen the mascot and from what I've seen, it’s a wonderful choice,” IOC President Thomas Bach said before introducing the character.” “The mascot really takes in the best elements and characteristics of China and the Chinese people. It will be a great ambassador (大使) for the country and the 24th Winter Olympics.”
The ring of light surrounding the mascot’s face is suggestive of ice and snow tracks, as well as the flowing “ribbons” of the National Speed Skating Oval. The oval is one of two new competition sites in downtown Beijing expected to become a landmark of the Games, according to its chief designer Cao Xue.
The introduction of the mascots marks the key point of a journey that began in August 2018, when Beijing organizers started a global design competition for the mascots. A total of 5,816 designs were received from 35 countries, and were reviewed by Chinese and international experts in a comprehensive evaluation and selection process.
The new mascot will serve as spirited symbol of the Games that will take place in the three zones of downtown Beijing, the suburban district of Yanqing and co-host city Zhangjiakou in surrounding Hebei province.
8. What does the underlined word “debut” in paragraph1 mean
A. Design. B. Appearance.
C. Understanding. D. Attention.
9. What does Bach think of the mascot
A. Surprising. B. Entertaining.
C. Satisfying D. Interesting.
10. What’s paragraph 5 mainly about
A. The origin of the mascot image.
B. The introduction to the mascot designer.
C. The hard work behind the mascot design.
D. The hidden meaning of the mascot image.
11. What can be a suitable title for the text
A. The Mascot of the 24th Winter Olympic Games
B. A Historical Moment of the Winter Olympic Games
C. Bing Dwen Dwen: a Lovely Panda Welcomes the World
D. Comments on the Mascot of the 24th Winter Olympics
D
Human beings have used tools for a very long time. In some parts of the world you can still find tools that people used more than two million years ago. They made these tools by hitting one stone against another. In this way, they broke off pieces from one of the stones. These chips of stone were usually sharp on one side. People used them for cutting meat and skin from dead animals, and also for making other tools out of wood. Human beings needed to use tools because they did not have sharp teeth like other meat-eating animals, such as lions and tigers. Tools helped people to get food more easily.
Working with tools also helped to develop human intelligence. The human brain grew bigger, and human beings began to invent more and more tools and machines. The stone chip was one of the first tools that people used, and perhaps it is the most important. Some scientists say that it was the key to success of mankind.
Since 1960, a new kind of tool has appeared. This is the silicon chip (硅芯片). It is smaller than a finger nail, but it can store lots of information. It is an electronic brain. Every year these chips get clever, but their size gets smaller, and their cost gets less. They are used in watches, calculators and intelligent machines that we can use in many ways. In the future we will not need to work with tools in the old way. Machines will do everything for us. People will have plenty of spare time. But what will they do with it
Human beings used stone chips for more than two million years, but human life changed very little in that time. But now life is changing faster every day. What will life be like twenty years from now What will the world be like two million years from now
12. From paragraph 1, we can know ________.
A. why early human beings cut skin from dead animals B. how early human beings discovered the tools
C. what early human beings used the tools for D. what food early human beings stored
13. The stone chip is thought to be the most important tool because it ________.
A. was very important to the development of mankind
B. led to the invention of machines in the early time
C. developed cooking abilities of mankind
D. was one of the first tools of mankind
14. The silicon chip is mentioned in the passage to ________.
A. stress the importance of the silicon chip
B. introduce a new kind of tool
C. give an example of using tools
D. show that the ability of humans to use and create tools is improved
15. At the end of the passage the author seems to suggest that life in the future is ________.
A. out of order B. less colorful
C. hard to predict (=foretell) D. full of meanings

After months of expectation and secrecy, the official mascot (吉祥物) of the 2022 Winter Olympic Games－a giant panda-inspired cartoon character－made its first public debut with cheers at Beijing's Shougang Ice Hockey Arena.
The panda is named “Bing Dwen Dwen” in Chinese. Bing means “ice” in Chinese, while Dwen Dwen suggests “health and cleverness”－characteristics also shared by pandas. Pandas are perhaps the most recognized animal species in China, organizers said.
“Pandas combine China's traditional culture and its modern appearance together with winter sports elements in a fascinating image (形象) that shows our great expectations for the Games and shows that we welcome the world,” said Beijing Mayor Chen Jining, who also serves as an executive president on the organizing committee.
“I have already seen the mascot and from what I've seen it’s a wonderful choice,” IOC President Thomas Bach said before introducing the character.” “The mascot really takes in the best elements and characteristics of China and the Chinese people. It will be a great ambassador (大使) for the country and the 24th Winter Olympics.”
The ring of light surrounding the mascot’s face is suggestive of ice and snow tracks, as well as the flowing “ribbons” of the National Speed Skating Oval. The oval is one of two new competition sites in downtown Beijing expected to become a landmark of the Games, according to its chief designer Cao Xue.
The introduction of the mascots marks the key point of a journey that began in August 2018, when Beijing organizers started a global design competition for the mascots. A total of 5,816 designs were received from 35 countries, and were reviewed by Chinese and international experts in a comprehensive evaluation and selection process.
The new mascot will serve as spirited symbol of the Games that will take place in the three zones of downtown Beijing, the suburban district of Yanqing and co-host city Zhangjiakou in surrounding Hebei province.
8. What does the underlined word “debut” in paragraph1 mean
A. Design. B. Appearance.
C. Understanding. D. Attention.
9. What does Bach think of the mascot
A. Surprising. B. Entertaining.
C. Satisfying D. Interesting.
10. What’s paragraph 5 mainly about
A. The origin of the mascot image.
B. The introduction to the mascot designer.
C. The hard work behind the mascot design.
D. The hidden meaning of the mascot image.
11. What can be a suitable title for the text
A. The Mascot of the 24th Winter Olympic Games
B. A Historical Moment of the Winter Olympic Games
C. Bing Dwen Dwen: a Lovely Panda Welcomes the World
D. Comments on the Mascot of the 24th Winter Olympics
【答案】8. B 9. C 10. D 11. A
【解析】
【分析】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍是2022年冬季奥运会官方吉祥物的由来，设计背后的艰辛工作和隐含意义。
【8题详解】

Human beings have used tools for a very long time. In some parts of the world you can still find tools that people used more than two million years ago. They made these tools by hitting one stone against another. In this way, they broke off pieces from one of the stones. These chips of stone were usually sharp on one side. People used them for cutting meat and skin from dead animals, and also for making other tools out of wood. Human beings needed to use tools because they did not have sharp teeth like other meat-eating animals, such as lions and tigers. Tools helped people to get food more easily.
Working with tools also helped to develop human intelligence. The human brain grew bigger, and human beings began to invent more and more tools and machines. The stone chip was one of the first tools that people used, and perhaps it is the most important. Some scientists say that it was the key to success of mankind.
Since 1960, a new kind of tool has appeared. This is the silicon chip (硅芯片). It is smaller than a finger nail, but it can store lots of information. It is an electronic brain. Every year these chips get clever, but their size gets smaller, and their cost gets less. They are used in watches, calculators and intelligent machines that we can use in many ways. In the future we will not need to work with tools in the old way. Machines will do everything for us. People will have plenty of spare time. But what will they do with it
Human beings used stone chips for more than two million years, but human life changed very little in that time. But now life is changing faster every day. What will life be like twenty years from now What will the world be like two million years from now
12. From paragraph 1, we can know ________.
A. why early human beings cut skin from dead animals B. how early human beings discovered the tools
C. what early human beings used the tools for D. what food early human beings stored
13. The stone chip is thought to be the most important tool because it ________.
A. was very important to the development of mankind
B. led to the invention of machines in the early time
C. developed cooking abilities of mankind
D. was one of the first tools of mankind
14. The silicon chip is mentioned in the passage to ________.
A. stress the importance of the silicon chip
B. introduce a new kind of tool
C. give an example of using tools
D. show that the ability of humans to use and create tools is improved
15. At the end of the passage the author seems to suggest that life in the future is ________.
A. out of order B. less colorful
C. hard to predict (=foretell) D. full of meanings
【答案】12. C 13. A 14. D 15. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了工具对人类社会发展的重要作用。首先锋利的石头片帮助人类度过了早期的艰苦岁月，然后电子芯片的发明给人类生活带来巨大的变化。科技的强大和发展的迅速使人们很难预测未来是什么样子的。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中“Human beings needed to use tools because they did not have sharp teeth like other meat eating animals, such as lions and tigers. Tools helped people to get food more easily.(人类需要使用工具，因为他们没有像其他食肉动物如狮子和老虎那样锋利的牙齿。工具帮助人们更容易得到食物)”可知，第一段主要讲了早期的人类使用工具的目的，故选C。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“Some scientists say that it was the key to success of mankind.(一些科学家说这是人类成功的关键)”可知，石片对于人类的发展起到了非常重要的作用，故选A。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中“It is smaller than a finger nail, but it can store lots of information. It is an electronic brain. Every year these chips get clever, but their size gets smaller, and their cost gets less. They are used in watches, calculators and intelligent machines that we can use in many ways. In the future we will not need to work with tools in the old way. Machines will do everything for us. People will have plenty of spare time.(它比指甲还小，但却能存储大量信息。它是一个电子大脑。这些芯片每年都在变聪明，但它们的尺寸越来越小，成本越来越低。它们被用于手表，计算器和智能机器，我们可以在很多方面使用。在未来，我们将不需要以旧的方式使用工具。机器将为我们做一切。人们将有大量的空闲时间)”可推知，文章中提到硅芯片是为了表明人类使用和创造工具的能力得到了提高。故选D。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“Human beings used stone chips for more than two million years, but human life changed very little in that time. But now life is changing faster every day. What will life be like twenty years from now What will the world be like two million years from now (人类使用石片已经有两百多万年了，但人类的生活在那段时间里几乎没有什么变化。但现在的生活每天都在快速变化。二十年后的生活会是什么样子 两百万年后的世界会是什么样子？)”可推知，将来的生活无法预料，故选C。
