Macie Semrau, a 6-year-old girl from Eliot, Maine, seldom missed school. So, when she refused to even get dressed one day, her mother decided to allow her to stay home with her father Kyle and her 4-year-old brother Caleb. The family would later be extremely thankful that the little girl refused to leave after she found her father passed out in the basement.
After returning from his night work, Kyle was feeling light-headed. He told his wife Kate that he would be laying low for the day with their children. He finally made his way to the basement. Macie paid attention to her father’s condition when she heard him shouting, and she and Caleb went to have a look. Macie found her 37-year-old father was about to lose awareness (意识). She asked him for his phone’s passcode (密码) so she could unlock it. After successfully opening his phone, she found the local police department’s number and called the police.
Smith was floored by Macie’s decision-making and her ability to stay calm. The little girl listed the family’s Goodwin Road address while explaining that her father was in trouble. In the meantime, Caleb comforted his father. Thanks to Macie and Caleb, he was sent to Wentworth-Douglass Hospital, where he required four liters of oxygen(氧气) and spent three days recovering.
“I’m very lucky, obviously because of my daughter and son and the police’s response” said Kate. “It was quick,” he added, mentioning that the police arrived just in two minutes thanks to Macie’s call. “It was unbelievable. I was in tears myself,” he said.
The Eliot Police Department also praised the young girl for her quick thinking and strong awareness. Eliot Police Chief Elliot Moya praised the Semraus for teaching their children about awareness of their surroundings (环境) as well as communication skills.

Scientists at Rice University in Houston, Texas have developed a fabric-based (基于织物的) wearable tool that “hits” users’ wrists (腕关节) with pressurized air, silently guiding them to their finishing point. The study, put out on August 29 in the magazine Device, showed that users could correctly read which direction the tool was telling them to go since the wearable uses air instead of electronics, it can be built lighter than present designs.
The wearables may benefit people with hearing loss, and experts such as doctors, pilots, and soldiers who are crowded with signs and sounds.
But while tools that produce signs or sounds are prevalent in everyday life, tools that use touch-based signs are still uncommon.
To get over this difficulty, the Rice University researchers developed a light, comfortable wearable tool from fabric materials that can be worn on a user’s arm. The team tested the tool by measuring forces applied to the user as a function of pressure and the shape of the wearable.
“Every person has a differently shaped arm, a different feeling of what ‘feels good’ in terms of the forces applied and the timing of the forces, and different abilities in responding to the type of touch-based signs we sent,” said Barclay Jumet the lead author of the study. “Fortunately, our fabric-based wearable tool is easily tailorable (可定制的) and adjustable (可调节的) to a series of body types and sizes.”
After testing the performance of the touch-based wearable tool in a lab-based study, the researchers set out to see how well these tools could guide users in a real-world situation. “We were amazed that the user was able to find his way around the streets of Houston and later follow 50 meters long on an open field with 100% exactness in receiving and reading touch-based signs,” said Daniel Preston, the co-author of the study,
“Further development will seek to improve the ability to pass on even more difficult signs that are easily and naturally noticed by the user,” said Preston.
8. Why are the wearable tools lighter
A. The wrist requires lighter tools. B. The fabric of the tool is light.
C. They use air to “hit” users’ wrists. D. It is in response to the call from scientists.
9. What does the underlined word “prevalent” in paragraph 3 mean
A. Alarming. B. Pleasing. C. Clear. D. Common.
10. How can the problem of different body types and sizes be solved
A. By carrying out more studies. B. By developing high-quality fabric.
C. By tailoring and adjusting the tool. D. By sending exact touch-based signs.
11. What is paragraph 6 mainly about
A. The cause of testing the tool in real life.
B. The test of the tool’s real-life performance.
C. The perfection of the touch-based wearable tool.
D. The necessity of stepping from the lab to the real world.
【答案】8. C 9. D 10. C 11. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了美国得克萨斯州休斯敦莱斯大学的科学家们开发出了一种基于织物的可穿戴工具，可以通过喷出的压力空气无声地引导人们到达目的地，可以帮助聋人和医生、飞行员、士兵等在嘈杂环境下减少视觉和听觉信号的干扰。这种工具轻便舒适，可根据不同身体类型和尺寸进行定制和调整，具有广阔的发展前景。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中“The study, put out on August 29 in the magazine Device, showed that users could correctly read which direction the tool was telling them to go since the wearable uses air instead of electronics, it can be built lighter than present designs.(这项研究于8月29日在《设备》杂志上发表，表明使用者可以正确地读取这种工具所指示的方向，由于这种可穿戴工具使用了空气而非电子元件，因此可以比现有设计更轻便。)”可知，由于这种可穿戴工具使用了空气而非电子元件，因此可以比现有设计更轻便。C选项“They use air to “hit” users’ wrists.(它们利用空气“击打”用户的手腕。)”与文章信息相符。故选C。
【9题详解】
词义猜测题。根据第三段中划线词前面的内容“while tools that produce signs or sounds are…(虽然产生符号或声音的工具……)”以及划线词后面的内容“tools that use touch-based signs are still uncommon.(使用基于触摸的标志的工具仍然不常见。)”可知，前后两个句子构成转折关系，即虽然产生符号或声音的工具是普遍的（常见的），可是使用基于触摸的标志的工具仍然不常见，划线词prevalent与uncommon 意思相反，故划线词与D选项“Common.(常见的，普遍的)”为同义词。故选D。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据倒数第三段中““Fortunately, our fabric-based wearable tool is easily tailorable (可定制的) and adjustable (可调节的) to a series of body types and sizes.”(‘幸运的是，我们基于织物的可穿戴工具很容易根据一系列体型和尺寸进行定制和调整。’)”可知，针对不同体型和尺寸的问题，基于织物的可穿戴工具很容易根据一系列体型和尺寸进行定制和调整。故选C。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第六段中“After testing the performance of the touch-based wearable tool in a lab-based study, the researchers set out to see how well these tools could guide users in a real-world situation.(在实验室研究中测试了基于触摸的可穿戴工具的性能后，研究人员开始研究这些工具在现实世界中如何指导用户。)”可知，本段主要讲述的是测试该穿戴工具在实际中即现实世界中的表现。故选B。
D
Melanie Guttmann co-founder of LG, a German climate (气候) group, once spent six days in prison after being arrested during a public gathering against “new normal”. She tells me that she just wanted to have a peaceful life, spend some time with the people she loved and start a family. But finally, she says, she’d be willing to be in prison even longer if it might make a difference. “I started to realize that no matter whether I’m in prison or not, I will never have those things.”
I have been turning over her words for what happened later. Vermont experienced storms last week, causing floods and resulting in deaths. An extreme heat brought the number of people in one Phoenix emergency room to levels never seen since the COVID-19 pandemic. The ocean water around the Florida Keys reached a temperature of over 90°F, seriously endangering coral reefs.
Many well-meant statesmen mention what’s happening as “new normal”. It’s meant, of course, to point out the long-term effects of putting large amounts of greenhouse gases into air. But the phrase of “new normal”, to me, also has the suggestion that now, at least, is “normal,” as if we’ve been riding a lift of global (全球的) temperature rise, and just arrived at the top floor. “It surely is hot up here at the new normal, but good thing is that it won’t get any worse.”
Unfortunately, though, it will. The changes we are experiencing are only quickening. Each new season is a baseline from which things will get stranger still. There’ll be yet more heat domes, storms, and flooding, coming at a faster and faster speed. By 2050, the world could be dealing with 1.2 billion climate refugees (难民) escaping for their lives.
One thing from Guttmann’s words is clear: However bad things are now, they’re set to get a whole lot worse. We need to have the awareness that there is no “new normal” where we can stop to catch our breath. And, if we don’t do something, things will get worse.
12. Why is Guttmann’s story mentioned
A. To explore what is behind the story.
B. To describe what life holds in the future.
C. To explain the cause of her being in prison.
D. To experience her feeling of disappointment.
13. What does paragraph 2 mainly tell us
A. The climate disasters. B. The storm.
C. The extreme heat. D. The high water temperature.
14. Which view concerning “new normal” will cause an argument
A. The statesmen propose “new normal” with a good purpose.
B. “New normal” alarms the long-term impact of climate change
C. Things about global temperature at “new normal” won’t be worse.
D. What Guttmann wants will probably come to nothing at such a “new normal”.
15. What is the author’s attitude toward Guttmann’s concern
A. Unclear. B. Supportive. C. Doubtful. D. Negative.
【答案】12. A 13. A 14. C 15. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了气候变化的影响以及人类面临的挑战，作者认为没有所谓的“新常态”，人类必须意识到情况的严重性并采取行动。
【12题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第二段“I have been turning over her words for what happened later. Vermont experienced storms last week, causing floods and resulting in deaths. An extreme heat brought the number of people in one Phoenix emergency room to levels never seen since the COVID-19 pandemic. The ocean water around the Florida Keys reached a temperature of over 90°F, seriously endangering coral reefs.(由于后来发生的事，我一直在反复考虑她的话。佛蒙特州上周经历了暴风雨，造成洪水和人员死亡。极端高温使凤凰城急诊室的人数达到了自COVID-19大流行以来从未见过的水平。佛罗里达群岛周围的海水温度达到90华氏度以上，严重危及珊瑚礁。)”以及第三段“Many well-meant statesmen mention what’s happening as “new normal”.(许多善意的政治家把正在发生的事情称为“新常态”。)”可推断，作者提到Guttmann的故事是为了探索Guttmann的故事背后的故事。故选A。
【13题详解】
主旨大意题。根据文章第二段“I have been turning over her words for what happened later. Vermont experienced storms last week, causing floods and resulting in deaths.

【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第三段“But the phrase of “new normal”, to me, also has the suggestion that now, at least, is “normal,” as if we’ve been riding a lift of global (全球的) temperature rise, and just arrived at the top floor. “It surely is hot up here at the new normal, but good thing is that it won’t get any worse.”(但对我来说，“新常态”这个词也暗示着，至少现在是“正常的”，就好像我们乘坐了全球气温上升的电梯，刚刚到达顶层。“在新常态下，这里肯定很热，但好在情况不会变得更糟。”)”以及第四段“Unfortunately, though, it will. The changes we are experiencing are only quickening.(但不幸的是，它会。我们正在经历的变化只是在加速。)”可知，“新常态”下的全球气温不会更糟这个观点是不对的，会引起争论。故选C。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“One thing from Guttmann’s words is clear: However bad things are now, they’re set to get a whole lot worse. We need to have the awareness that there is no “new normal” where we can stop to catch our breath. And, if we don’t do something, things will get worse.( Guttmann的话中有一点是明确的：无论现在的情况多么糟糕，它们都将变得更糟。我们需要意识到，没有什么“新常态”可以让我们停下来喘口气。如果我们不做点什么，事情会变得更糟。)”可知，作者赞同Guttmann的观点，也就是无论现在的情况多么糟糕，它们都将变得更糟。故选B。
第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分）
阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Do you have some habits like emotional (情绪的) eating or spending money to reduce stress ____16____ Here we are coming to discuss some habit-breaking strategies (策略).
We first take an example. When you are in a movie theater with hot dogs, the movie theater is the invitation, and hot dog’s buying and eating are the behaviors.
The habit-breaking choices are: One, tell yourself “no hot dog” each time; two, avoid going to the movies at all; or three, exchange the hot dog with a new movie snack that you can afford or achieve your nutritional goals. The key to this strategy is to make sure that the new habit is similarly attractive. ____17____
Not every habit-breaking strategy works for every habit. For example, maybe you want to eat a piece of oil cake in the break room when you arrive at school. ____18____ Maybe, you might as well try to develop a new habit of eating healthier breakfast food at the same time, instead.
____19____ The only way habit-breaking works is to use the strategy repeatedly. A 2009 study of 96 people in the European Journal of Social Psychology showed that individuals took between 18 and 254 days to form a habit.
Finally, success isn’t perfection with habit breaking. Habit should be thought of as a continuum (连续体). Things become more or less habitual. ____20____ And you’ll know you’re making progress when you feel less influenced by the habit, not when it is gone.
A. Instead of erasing a habit, you need to reduce its impact.
B. Whichever strategy you choose, the key is to do it over and over.
C. A low-fat cookie or an after-work walk are more believable changes.
D. The way to break a habit depends on the behavior you want to prevent.
E. The behaviors are performed automatically in response to an invitation.
F. They can have negative effects in the long term and often need to be broken.
G. It won’t work to refuse the invitation, because you can’t stop going to class.
【答案】16. F 17. C 18. G 19. B 20. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一些改掉坏习惯的策略。
【16题详解】
根据空前内容“Do you have some habits like emotional (情绪的) eating or spending money to reduce stress (你是否有一些习惯，比如情绪化地吃东西或花钱来减压？)”可知，上文提到了坏习惯。选项F“They can have negative effects in the long term and often need to be broken.(从长远来看，它们可能会产生负面影响，通常需要改掉。)”延续上文内容，指的是这些习惯会有负面影响，同时引出下文内容“Here we are coming to discuss some habit-breaking strategies (策略).(下面我们来讨论一些改掉习惯的策略。)”。故选F。
【17题详解】
根据上文内容“The habit-breaking choices are: One, tell yourself “no hot dog” each time; two, avoid going to the movies at all; or three, exchange the hot dog with a new movie snack that you can afford or achieve your nutritional goals. The key to this strategy is to make sure that the new habit is similarly attractive.(改掉习惯选择有：第一，每次都告诉自己“不要吃热狗”；第二，根本不要去看电影；第三，把热狗换成你能负担得起的新的电影零食，或者达到你的营养目标。这个策略的关键是确保新习惯同样有吸引力。)”可知，上文介绍了几种改掉在电影院吃热狗这一坏习惯的方法。选项C“A low-fat cookie or an after-work walk are more believable changes.(低脂饼干或下班后散步是更可信的改变。)”是上文内容的延续，指的是可以用低脂饼干替代热狗，或者就不去电影院，选择下班后散步。故选C。
【18题详解】
根据上文“Not every habit-breaking strategy works for every habit. For example, maybe you want to eat a piece of oil cake in the break room when you arrive at school.(不是每个改掉习惯的策略适用于所有的习惯。例如，当你到达学校时，也许你想在休息室吃一块油饼。)”可知，改掉习惯的策略应该是不适合所举例子。选项G“It won’t work to refuse the invitation, because you can’t stop going to class.(拒绝诱因是行不通的，因为你不能不去上课。)”是对例子进一步分析，解释为什么改掉习惯的策略不适合这种情况，因为你必须得上课（诱因一直存在）。从而引出另一种方法，即下文“Maybe, you might as well try to develop a new habit of eating healthier breakfast food at the same time, instead.(也许，你不妨试着养成一种新的习惯，同时吃更健康的早餐。)”，可以养成一种新的更好的习惯。故选G。
【19题详解】
空处为段首句，为本段主要内容。根据下文“The only way habit-breaking works is to use the strategy repeatedly.

Macie Semrau, a 6-year-old girl from Eliot, Maine, seldom missed school. So, when she refused to even get dressed one day, her mother decided to allow her to stay home with her father Kyle and her 4-year-old brother Caleb. The family would later be extremely thankful that the little girl refused to leave after she found her father passed out in the basement.
After returning from his night work, Kyle was feeling light-headed. He told his wife Kate that he would be laying low for the day with their children. He finally made his way to the basement. Macie paid attention to her father’s condition when she heard him shouting, and she and Caleb went to have a look. Macie found her 37-year-old father was about to lose awareness (意识). She asked him for his phone’s passcode (密码) so she could unlock it. After successfully opening his phone, she found the local police department’s number and called the police.
Smith was floored by Macie’s decision-making and her ability to stay calm. The little girl listed the family’s Goodwin Road address while explaining that her father was in trouble. In the meantime, Caleb comforted his father. Thanks to Macie and Caleb, he was sent to Wentworth-Douglass Hospital, where he required four liters of oxygen(氧气) and spent three days recovering.
“I’m very lucky, obviously because of my daughter and son and the police’s response” said Kate. “It was quick,” he added, mentioning that the police arrived just in two minutes thanks to Macie’s call. “It was unbelievable. I was in tears myself,” he said.
The Eliot Police Department also praised the young girl for her quick thinking and strong awareness. Eliot Police Chief Elliot Moya praised the Semraus for teaching their children about awareness of their surroundings (环境) as well as communication skills.

Scientists at Rice University in Houston, Texas have developed a fabric-based (基于织物的) wearable tool that “hits” users’ wrists (腕关节) with pressurized air, silently guiding them to their finishing point. The study, put out on August 29 in the magazine Device, showed that users could correctly read which direction the tool was telling them to go since the wearable uses air instead of electronics, it can be built lighter than present designs.
The wearables may benefit people with hearing loss, and experts such as doctors, pilots, and soldiers who are crowded with signs and sounds.
But while tools that produce signs or sounds are prevalent in everyday life, tools that use touch-based signs are still uncommon.
To get over this difficulty, the Rice University researchers developed a light, comfortable wearable tool from fabric materials that can be worn on a user’s arm. The team tested the tool by measuring forces applied to the user as a function of pressure and the shape of the wearable.
“Every person has a differently shaped arm, a different feeling of what ‘feels good’ in terms of the forces applied and the timing of the forces, and different abilities in responding to the type of touch-based signs we sent,” said Barclay Jumet the lead author of the study. “Fortunately, our fabric-based wearable tool is easily tailorable (可定制的) and adjustable (可调节的) to a series of body types and sizes.”
After testing the performance of the touch-based wearable tool in a lab-based study, the researchers set out to see how well these tools could guide users in a real-world situation. “We were amazed that the user was able to find his way around the streets of Houston and later follow 50 meters long on an open field with 100% exactness in receiving and reading touch-based signs,” said Daniel Preston, the co-author of the study,
“Further development will seek to improve the ability to pass on even more difficult signs that are easily and naturally noticed by the user,” said Preston.
8. Why are the wearable tools lighter
A. The wrist requires lighter tools. B. The fabric of the tool is light.
C. They use air to “hit” users’ wrists. D. It is in response to the call from scientists.
9. What does the underlined word “prevalent” in paragraph 3 mean
A. Alarming. B. Pleasing. C. Clear. D. Common.
10. How can the problem of different body types and sizes be solved
A. By carrying out more studies. B. By developing high-quality fabric.
C. By tailoring and adjusting the tool. D. By sending exact touch-based signs.
11. What is paragraph 6 mainly about
A. The cause of testing the tool in real life.
B. The test of the tool’s real-life performance.
C. The perfection of the touch-based wearable tool.
D. The necessity of stepping from the lab to the real world.
D
Melanie Guttmann, co-founder of LG, a German climate (气候) group, once spent six days in prison after being arrested during a public gathering against “new normal”. She tells me that she just wanted to have a peaceful life, spend some time with the people she loved and start a family. But finally, she says, she’d be willing to be in prison even longer if it might make a difference. “I started to realize that no matter whether I’m in prison or not, I will never have those things.”
I have been turning over her words for what happened later. Vermont experienced storms last week, causing floods and resulting in deaths. An extreme heat brought the number of people in one Phoenix emergency room to levels never seen since the COVID-19 pandemic. The ocean water around the Florida Keys reached a temperature of over 90°F, seriously endangering coral reefs.
Many well-meant statesmen mention what’s happening as “new normal”. It’s meant, of course, to point out the long-term effects of putting large amounts of greenhouse gases into air. But the phrase of “new normal”, to me, also has the suggestion that now, at least, is “normal,” as if we’ve been riding a lift of global (全球的) temperature rise, and just arrived at the top floor. “It surely is hot up here at the new normal, but good thing is that it won’t get any worse.”
Unfortunately, though, it will. The changes we are experiencing are only quickening. Each new season is a baseline from which things will get stranger still. There’ll be yet more heat domes, storms, and flooding, coming at a faster and faster speed. By 2050, the world could be dealing with 1.2 billion climate refugees (难民) escaping for their lives.
One thing from Guttmann’s words is clear: However bad things are now, they’re set to get a whole lot worse. We need to have the awareness that there is no “new normal” where we can stop to catch our breath. And, if we don’t do something, things will get worse.
12. Why is Guttmann’s story mentioned
A. To explore what is behind the story.
B. To describe what life holds in the future.
C. To explain the cause of her being in prison.
D. To experience her feeling of disappointment.
13. What does paragraph 2 mainly tell us
A. The climate disasters. B. The storm.
C. The extreme heat. D. The high water temperature.
14. Which view concerning “new normal” will cause an argument
A. The statesmen propose “new normal” with a good purpose.
B. “New normal” alarms the long-term impact of climate change
C. Things about global temperature at “new normal” won’t be worse.
D. What Guttmann wants will probably come to nothing at such a “new normal”.
15. What is the author’s attitude toward Guttmann’s concern
A. Unclear. B. Supportive. C. Doubtful. D. Negative.

阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Do you have some habits like emotional (情绪的) eating or spending money to reduce stress ____16____ Here we are coming to discuss some habit-breaking strategies (策略).
We first take an example. When you are in a movie theater with hot dogs, the movie theater is the invitation, and hot dog’s buying and eating are the behaviors.
The habit-breaking choices are: One, tell yourself “no hot dog” each time; two, avoid going to the movies at all; or three, exchange the hot dog with a new movie snack that you can afford or achieve your nutritional goals. The key to this strategy is to make sure that the new habit is similarly attractive. ____17____
Not every habit-breaking strategy works for every habit. For example, maybe you want to eat a piece of oil cake in the break room when you arrive at school. ____18____ Maybe, you might as well try to develop a new habit of eating healthier breakfast food at the same time, instead.
____19____ The only way habit-breaking works is to use the strategy repeatedly A 2009 study of 96 people in the European Journal of Social Psychology showed that individuals took between 18 and 254 days to form a habit.
Finally, success isn’t perfection with habit breaking. Habit should be thought of as a continuum (连续体). Things become more or less habitual. ____20____ And you’ll know you’re making progress when you feel less influenced by the habit, not when it is gone.
A. Instead of erasing a habit, you need to reduce its impact.
B. Whichever strategy you choose, the key is to do it over and over.
C. A low-fat cookie or an after-work walk are more believable changes.
D. The way to break a habit depends on the behavior you want to prevent.
E. The behaviors are performed automatically in response to an invitation.
F. They can have negative effects in the long term and often need to be broken.
G. It won’t work to refuse the invitation, because you can’t stop going to class.
