阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
A
Four Cool Languages
Chinese
Around 1.4 billion people speak Chinese. Chinese is a tonal (声调的) language, meaning that changing the tone of just one syllable (音节) can affect a word’s meaning. Chinese writing has ancient roots, which is thought to have developed starting around 2000 B. C.
Arabic
Over 370 million people speak Arabic. Written Arabic uses a cursive-style font (连笔) that looks more like artworks than writing. Arabic is written from right to left rather than left to right, making it different from many other languages.
English
Around 379 million people speak English as a native language. It’s an official language in a huge number of other countries.
English is the most widely spoken second language, with over a billion people speaking it as a non-native language. That means around twice as many people speak English as a second language than people who speak it as a first language.
Italian
Nearly 68 million people speak Italian. If you play music or sing, chances are that you already know a lot of Italian because many familiar musical terms are actually Italian.
Not only will learning Italian help you pick up vocabulary, but it will also help you understand the meanings of musical terms in greater depth.
1. What is a feature of Arabic
A. It doesn’t have cursive-style fonts. B. It helps artists with their artworks.
C. It is written from right to left. D. It is closely related to music.
2. Which language is the most widely used as a second language in the world
A. Arabic. B. English. C. Chinese. D. Italian.
3. What’s the number of people who speak Italian
A. Nearly 68 million. B. Around 370 million.
C. Over 379 million. D. Around 1.4 billion.
【答案】1. C 2. B 3. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇应用文,文章介绍了四种很酷的语言。
【1题详解】
细节理解题。根据 Arabic 中“Arabic is written from right to left rather than left to right, making it different from many other languages.(阿拉伯语是从右到左而不是从左到右书写的,这使它与许多其他语言不同。)”可知,阿拉伯语从右往左写。故选C。
【2题详解】
细节理解题。根据 English 中“English is the most widely spoken second language, with over a billion people speaking it as a non-native language. That means around twice as many people speak English as a second language than people who speak it as a first language.(英语是使用最广泛的第二语言,有超过10亿人将其作为非母语。这意味着将英语作为第二语言的人数大约是将其作为第一语言的人数的两倍。)”可知,作为第二语言使用最广泛的是英语。故选B。
【3题详解】
细节理解题。根据 Italian 中“Nearly 68 million people speak Italian.(将近6800万人说意大利语。)”可知,近6800万人说意大利语。
B
People who give, live longer, studies have shown. Now, a new study by University of Michigan shows that why people volunteer—not whether they volunteer—is what really counts.
For the study, Konrath and colleagues analyzed data collected in 2008 and 2012 aiming at the same random samples of 3,376 people. Overall, they found that just 2.3 percent of those who once worked as volunteers had died, compared to 4.3 percent of non-volunteers. They further found that how much people volunteered mattered as well—only 1.8 percent of regular volunteers died, compared with 2.5 percent of occasional volunteers.
But what really made a difference were people’s motives for volunteering. The researchers asked people to rate how important they found various reasons for volunteering, and they found that the more important people rated reasons such as feeling pity for people in need, the more likely they were to be alive. Those who rated motives related to personal benefit as more important were more likely to have died, and just as likely to die as those who didn’t volunteer at all. These reasons included volunteering because they enjoyed the social contact, to escape their own problems, or to explore their own strengths.
Konrath says the current findings suggest it may be a poor idea to encourage people to volunteer because it’s good for them. “Volunteering is increasingly being encouraged in schools and organizations. Some groups say that it’s okay to want benefits for yourself, and encourage people to think of volunteering as an exchange for personal interests. Some groups emphasize the health benefits received through volunteering.” Konrath added, “Of course, it’s reasonable for volunteers to expect benefits for themselves. But the potential health benefits of volunteering are significantly reduced if self-benefit becomes a person’s main motive.”
4. What does the new study mainly find
A. How we volunteer makes sense to others. B. How often we volunteer makes a difference.
C. Whether we volunteer decides our well-being. D. Why we volunteer has an impact on our health.
5. How did the researchers do the study
A. By analyzing statistics. B. By rating volunteers’ performances.
C. By doing lab experiments. D. By grouping participants randomly.
6. Which of the following motives will probably contribute to a longer life
A. To develop abilities. B. To make more friends.
C. To help the poor people. D. To solve personal problems.
7. What is the last paragraph mainly about
A. Practical suggestions on further studies. B. A further explanation of the current findings.
C. Potential applications of the research method. D. A reasonable doubt about the research results.
【答案】4. D 5. A 6. C 7. B
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。本篇文章主要介绍了一项新的研究发现,即人们做志愿的动机影响着人们的健康。
【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“People who give, live longer, studies have shown. Now, a new study by University of Michigan shows that why people volunteer—not whether they volunteer—is what really counts.(研究表明,乐于奉献的人寿命更长。现在,密歇根大学的一项新研究表明,真正重要的是人们为什么要做志愿者,而不是他们是否做志愿者)”可知,研究发现人们为什么自愿(做志愿者)、而不是是否做志愿者,才是真正重要的东西;第二段“For the study, Konrath and colleagues analyzed data collected in 2008 and 2012 aiming at the same random samples of 3,376 people. Overall, they found that just 2.3 percent of those who once worked as volunteers had died, compared to 4.3 percent of non-volunteers. They further found that how much people volunteered mattered as well—only 1.8 percent of regular volunteers died, compared with 2.5 percent of occasional volunteers.(在这项研究中,康拉斯和他的同事分析了2008年和2012年收集的数据,这些数据是针对3376人的随机样本。总的来说,他们发现,曾经做过志愿者的人中,只有2.3%的人去世了,而非志愿者的这一比例为4.3%。他们进一步发现,志愿者的数量也很重要——只有1.8%的定期志愿者死亡,而临时志愿者的死亡率为2.5%)”主要说明了志愿者比不做志愿的活得更长;第三段“But what really made a difference were people’s motives for volunteering. The researchers asked people to rate how important they found various reasons for volunteering, and they found that the more important people rated reasons such as feeling pity for people in need, the more likely they were to be alive. Those who rated motives related to personal benefit as more important were more likely to have died, and just as likely to die as those who didn’t volunteer at all. These reasons included volunteering because they enjoyed the social contact, to escape their own problems, or to explore their own strengths.(但真正起作用的是人们志愿服务的动机。研究人员让人们对他们认为的各种志愿活动原因的重要性进行打分,结果发现,那些认为对有需要的人感到同情等原因越重要的人,他们活下来的可能性就越大。那些认为与个人利益相关的动机更重要的人更有可能死亡,而且和那些根本不做志愿者的人一样。这些原因包括志愿活动是因为他们喜欢社会接触,逃避自己的问题,或探索自己的优势)”说明了人们志愿服务的动机影响着死亡率,综合这三段可知人们为什么做志愿者是对自己的健康有影响的。故选D项。
【5题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段“For the study, Konrath and colleagues analyzed data collected in 2008 and 2012 aiming at the same random samples of 3,376 people. Overall, they found that just 2.3 percent of those who once worked as volunteers had died, compared to 4.3 percent of non-volunteers. They further found that how much people volunteered mattered as well—only 1.8 percent of regular volunteers died, compared with 2.5 percent of occasional volunteers.(在这项研究中,康拉斯和他的同事分析了2008年和2012年收集的数据,这些数据是针对3376人的随机样本。总的来说,他们发现,曾经做过志愿者的人中,只有2.3%的人去世了,而非志愿者的这一比例为4.3%。他们进一步发现,志愿者的数量也很重要——只有1.8%的定期志愿者死亡,而临时志愿者的死亡率为2.5%)”提到研究人员分析了2008和2012年针对3376人的相同随机样本收集的数据,同时这一段也列举了实验中的诸多数据,比如2.3%、4.3%等等,这就说明研究人员是通过统计分析数据来进行这项研究的。故选A项。
【6题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“Those who rated motives related to personal benefit as more important were more likely to have died, and just as likely to die as those who didn’t volunteer at all.(那些认为与个人利益相关的动机更重要的人更有可能死亡,而且和那些根本不做志愿者的人一样)”可知,如果这个人的志愿服务的动机是为了自己的利益,那么他的死亡率和那些不做志愿的人是一样的,因此我们应该选择“为别人利益”的选项,因此C“帮助穷人”符合这一条件。故选C项。
【7题详解】
主旨大意题。根据最后一段“Konrath says the current findings suggest it may be a poor idea to encourage people to volunteer because it’s good for them. “Volunteering is increasingly being encouraged in schools and organizations. Some groups say that it’s okay to want benefits for yourself, and encourage people to think of volunteering as an exchange for personal interests. Some groups emphasize the health benefits received through volunteering.” Konrath added, “Of course, it’s reasonable for volunteers to expect benefits for themselves. But the potential health benefits of volunteering are significantly reduced if self-benefit becomes a person’s main motive.”(康拉斯说,目前的研究结果表明,鼓励人们做志愿者可能不是一个好主意,因为这对他们有好处。“志愿服务在学校和组织中越来越受到鼓励。一些团体认为,为自己谋取利益是可以的,并鼓励人们将志愿服务视为个人利益的交换。一些团体强调通过志愿服务获得的健康益处。”康拉特补充说:“当然,志愿者期望自己得到好处是合理的。但如果一个人的主要动机是自我利益,那么志愿服务的潜在健康益处就会大大降低。”)”可知,最后一段主要讲对当前发现的进一步解释。故选B。
C
When Kurt Benirschke started collecting skin samples from endangered animals in 1972, he didn’t have a firm plan on what to do with them. As a researcher at the University of California San Diego, he believed that one day these samples would be used to save these animals. A few years later, he moved his collection to the San Diego Zoo, and called it the Frozen Zoo.
For a long time, it was the only project of its kind; however, in recent years, similar conservation efforts have spread globally, and tools that Benirschke didn’t yet have are now available. Today, the Frozen Zoo is the world’s largest animal cryobank(生物冷冻库), holding samples from over 10,500 individual animals from 1,220 species, in the hope that one day science can bring them back as a species.
The Frozen Zoo’s advanced technology is the key to its success in saving species from extinction. By using cryopreservation techniques, the zoo can store cells and tissues from endangered animals. The stored genetic material can be used for research, breeding(繁殖) programs, and potentially even cloning or genetic engineering to restore endangered species.
By protecting the genetic heritage of endangered animals the Frozen Zoo provides hope for the survival of species that would otherwise be at risk of dying out, and the preservation of Earth’s precious biodiversity. It has inspired the establishment of similar cryobanks worldwide, expanding efforts to conserve endangered species. These cryobanks contribute to the global network of genetic resources, improving cooperation and knowledge exchange. By demonstrating the potential of technology in the preservation of biodiversity, the frozen zoo serves as a powerful tool in raising awareness and driving change.
The Frozen Zoo is like a time capsule, preserving the genetic heritage of endangered species for future generations. It reminds us about the importance of conservation and offers a window into a world that could otherwise be lost forever.
8. What do we know about the Frozen Zoo
A. It is the world’s oldest and largest animal cryobank.
B. It started with a detailed plan led by Kurt Benirschke.
C. It is a project to explore the evolution of animal species.
D. It was established to protect animals in the San Diego Zoo.
9. How does the Frozen Zoo save species from extinction
A. By expanding their natural habitats.
B. By raising their survival rate with genetic technology.
C. By preserving their genetic material for further research.
D. By innovating breeding techniques to increase their population.
10. Why does the author mention “time capsule” in the last paragraph
A. To stress the importance of the Frozen Zoo.
B. To explain the urgency of saving endangered species.
C. To prove the potential value of preserving biodiversity.
D. To show the necessity of cooperative conservation efforts.
11. What words could best describe the Frozen Zoo project
A. Costly and controversial. B. Profitable and instructive.
C. Conservative and effective. D. Pioneering and significant.
【答案】8. A 9. C 10. A 11. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文,主要介绍了冷冻动物园在保护濒危动物免遭灭绝方面的成果、作用和意义。
【8题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段中的“For a long time, it was the only project of its kind(在很长一段时间里,这是唯一一个此类项目)”和“Today, the Frozen Zoo is the world’s largest animal cryobank(生物冷冻库)(如今,冷冻动物园是世界上最大的动物冷冻库)”可推知,冷冻动物园是世界上最古老、最大的动物冷冻库。故选A。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中的“The Frozen Zoo’s advanced technology is the key to its success in saving species from extinction. By using cryopreservation techniques, the zoo can store cells and tissues from endangered animals. The stored genetic material can be used for research, breeding(繁殖) programs, and potentially even cloning or genetic engineering to restore endangered species.(冷冻动物园的先进技术是其成功拯救物种免于灭绝的关键。通过冷冻保存技术,动物园可以储存濒危动物的细胞和组织。储存的遗传物质可以用于研究、育种计划,甚至可能用于克隆或基因工程,以恢复濒危物种。)”可知,冷冻动物园先进的冷冻保存技术可以储存动物的细胞和组织,并且将其用于研究、育种计划甚至克隆或基因工程,从而让濒危物种重返世间。故选C。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段中的“By demonstrating the potential of technology in the preservation of biodiversity, the frozen zoo serves as a powerful tool in raising awareness and driving change.(通过展示技术在保护生物多样性方面的潜力,冷冻动物园成为提高认识和推动变革的有力工具。)”和最后一段“The Frozen Zoo is like a time capsule, preserving the genetic heritage of endangered species for future generations. It reminds us about the importance of conservation and offers a window into a world that could otherwise be lost forever.(冷冻动物园就像一个时间胶囊,为子孙后代保存着濒危物种的遗传遗产。它提醒我们保护的重要性,并为了解一个可能永远消失的世界提供了一扇窗户。)”可知,冷冻动物园展示了技术在保护生物多样性方面的潜力,为子孙后代保存了濒危物种的物质,并提醒人们保护的重要性,还会后代了解濒危物种提供了机会,它就像一个“时间胶囊”。由此可推测出,作者在最后一段提到“时间胶囊”是为了强调冷冻动物园的重要性。故选A。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段中的“For a long time, it was the only project of its kind; however, in recent years, similar conservation efforts have spread globally, and tools that Benirschke didn’t yet have are now available.(在很长一段时间里,这是唯一一个此类项目;然而,近年来,类似的保护工作已经在全球范围内展开,Benirschke还没有的工具现在已经可用。)”可推出,冷冻动物园率先开启并引领了通过冷冻来保护濒危物种免于灭绝的方法,所以具有开拓性(pioneering)。根据最后一段“The Frozen Zoo is like a time capsule, preserving the genetic heritage of endangered species for future generations. It reminds us about the importance of conservation and offers a window into a world that could otherwise be lost forever.(冷冻动物园就像一个时间胶囊,为子孙后代保存着濒危物种的遗传遗产。它提醒我们保护的重要性,并为了解一个可能永远消失的世界提供了一扇窗户。)”可知,冷冻动物园为人类后代保存了濒危物种的遗传资料,提醒人类保护的重要性,并为未来复活物质提供了机会,由此可推测出,它具有重要性(significant)。故选D。
D
When Richard Oswald was growing up in northwestern Missouri in the 1950s, his dad had a firm rule: Don’t plant corn until mid-May. But that rule has become a relic of the past. In Rock Port, a small farming community near the Nebraska border, the growing season now begins more than a month earlier.
That’s not surprising. Across much of the US, winter is not as cold as it used to be. The four warmest Januaries on record have all occurred since 2016. In Missouri, winters are about 4 degrees hotter on average than in 1970-and farmers are starting to feel the effects.
As the planet continues to warm, cold winter weather will become less common, said Amy Butler, a re-search scientist studying climate variability. “However, less cold does not mean never cold.” Butler said. In the past decade, Liz Graznak’s organic vegetable farm near Columbia, Missouri, has endured increasingly extreme swings in weather. “We don’t get a couple of inches of snow; we get 18 inches of snow all at once and then in five days, it’ s 70 degrees again.” Graznak said. “We don’t get a couple of inches of rain; we get a 12-inch downpour in the span of 24 hours. That’s devastating(毁灭性的)to a vegetable farm.”
To help protect her crops, Graznak has built four large greenhouses on her property in just over a decade. Inside, she’s able to grow delicate, high-value crops, including flowers, lettuce and spinach.
But these greenhouses come at a steep cost. Nearly seven years ago, Graznak spent more than $18,000 to build a greenhouse and since then, the price has more than doubled. “When I think about these costs, in my brain, I say, ‘OK, how many heads of lettuce is that ’” She said. “I know I can sell a head of lettuce for $4, so how many heads of lettuce do I have to sell to be able to pay for that greenhouse And that’s a lot of lettuce.”
12. What does the author want to show by telling Richard Oswald’s story
A. New farmers should learn to farm on their own.
B. New farmers aren’t as experienced as old ones.
C Following traditional farming rules is essential.
D. Climate change is changing farming rules.
13. What did Liz Graznak experience in the past decade
A. Many extreme weather events.
B. A winter without any cold days.
C. Less snow and rain on the whole.
D. More stable temperature than before.
14. What can be inferred from Liz Graznak’s words in the last paragraph
A. The profits of her farm have increased.
B. She has lost hope in the future of farming.
C. The cost of farming has greatly increased.
D. Budgeting is important in modern farming.
15. What would be the best title for the text
A. Farmers in the US are troubled by floods
B. Farmers are worried about the future of farming
C. Farmers are feeling climate change’s effect in the US
D. Farmers are turning to greenhouses due to climate change
【答案】12. D 13. A 14. C 15. C
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。主要介绍了气候变化正在改变农业规则,在过去的十年里经历了许多极端天气事件,导致农业成本大大增加。

推理判断题。文章第一段讲到“But that rule has become a relic of the past. In Rock Port, a small farming community near the Nebraska border, the growing season now begins more than a month earlier.(但这一规则已经成为过去的遗迹。在内布拉斯加州边境附近的一个小农业社区洛克波特,生长季节提前了一个多月)”以及第三段讲到“In the past decade, Liz Graznak’s organic vegetable farm near Columbia, Missouri, has endured increasingly extreme swings in weather. (在过去的十年里,密苏里州哥伦比亚附近的Liz Graznak的有机蔬菜农场经受了越来越极端的天气变化)”可知,作者通过讲述理查德·奥斯瓦尔德的故事想表达的是气候变化正在改变农业规则。故选D。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。文章第三段讲到“In the past decade, Liz Graznak’s organic vegetable farm near Columbia, Missouri, has endured increasingly extreme swings in weather. “We don’t get a couple of inches of snow; we get 18 inches of snow all at once and then in five days, it’ s 70 degrees again.” Graznak said. (在过去的十年里,Liz Graznak在密苏里州哥伦比亚附近的有机蔬菜农场经受了越来越极端的天气变化。“我们没有几英寸的雪;我们一下子下了18英寸的雪,然后在5天内,气温又回到了70华氏度。”Graznak说。)”可知,Liz Graznak在过去的十年里经历了许多极端天气事件。故选A。

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。
If you’ve ever been in a cheerful mood, then met up with a bad-tempered friend, you’ll know how infectious emotions can be. Before you know it, you realize that you’re feeling down too.____16____. When you’ve been sad, perhaps your friend’s liveliness has helped to lighten your mood.
You might wonder who wins out—if you’re feeling happy and your friend is feeling sad, do you yield to their sadness or do they catch your happiness Part of the answer is likely depending on their and your levels of expressiveness and receptiveness. ____17____. If you smile a lot when you’re happy, you’re more likely to infect your friend. Likewise, if your friend is impressionable and more prone (有做...倾向的) to copying facial expressions, then they’ll be more likely to catch your smiles and start feeling happier.
____18____. For instance, there’s evidence that fear has a smell, and that smelling the sweat of an anxious person can initiate activity in parts of the brain involved in empathy (共情) and processing emotions. In fact, there doesn’t need to be any physical contact at all. Researchers have shown that emotions can spread through social media. ____19____.
If and when you encounter an opposite emotion to your own, the experience will likely vary depending on how invested you are in that other person or people. ____20____. And if you’re feeling sad and a bunch of strangers surrounding you were laughing their heads off, you’re likely to find it really annoying.
A. Happily, it can work the other way around too.
B. This is especially true when we’re interacting with someone we care about.
C. Everyone varies in how emotionally expressive and impressionable they are.
D. That isn’t to say that facial expressions are the only way for emotions to spread.
E. These processes have to do with effective communication and mutual understanding.
F. If you care about them, you’ll be more motivated to shift emotionally to match their state.
G. People exposed to more negative posts are more likely to post something negative themselves.

【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了朋友之间的情绪是互相影响的,比如如果你曾经心情愉快,然后遇到了一个脾气不好的朋友,你就会情绪低落,当你难过的时候,也许你朋友的活泼有助于缓解你的情绪。
【16题详解】
上文“If you’ve ever been in a cheerful mood, then met up with a bad-tempered friend, you’ll know how infectious emotions can be. Before you know it, you realize that you’re feeling down too.(如果你曾经心情愉快,然后遇到一个脾气不好的朋友,你就会知道情绪是多么具有感染力。不知不觉,你意识到自己也情绪低落)”以及空后“When you’ve been sad, perhaps your friend’s liveliness has helped to lighten your mood.(当你难过的时候,也许你朋友的活力有助于缓解你的情绪)”说明朋友的情绪会影响我们。空处承上启下,前文表明朋友的坏情绪会让你情绪低落,下文说明当你情绪低落时,朋友的活力也会缓解你的情绪,前后文是转折关系,A项“幸运的是,它也可以反过来工作。”符合语境,表明情绪的影响是可以互相作用的。故选A。
【17题详解】
上文“You might wonder who wins out—if you’re feeling happy and your friend is feeling sad, do you yield to their sadness or do they catch your happiness Part of the answer is likely depending on their and your levels of expressiveness and receptiveness.(你可能会想,如果你感到快乐,而你的朋友感到悲伤,是你屈服于他们的悲伤,还是他们抓住了你的快乐 部分答案可能取决于他们和你的表达能力和接受能力)”说明个人受朋友的情绪影响取决于人们的表达能力和接受能力。空处顺接前文,回答第一句提出的问题。C项中的“emotionally expressive and impressionable they are”和上文中的“their and your levels of expressiveness and receptiveness”相呼应,表明每个人的情绪表达能力和易受影响程度各不相同。故选C。

上文“Likewise, if your friend is impressionable and more prone(有做...倾向的) to copying facial expressions, then they’ll be more likely to catch your smiles and start feeling happier.(同样,如果你的朋友易受影响,更容易模仿面部表情,那么他们更有可能捕捉到你的笑容,开始感到更快乐)”说明如果朋友更容易模仿面部表情,那么他们更容易受到你快乐的影响,说明面部表情是传播情绪的途径。D项中的“facial expressions”和上文中的“facial expressions”相呼应,“the only way for emotions to spread ”和下文中“spread through social media”相呼应,表明面部表情并不是情绪传播的唯一途径,下文举例“ For instance, there’s evidence that fear has a smell, and that smelling the sweat of an anxious person can initiate activity in parts of the brain involved in empathy (共情) and processing emotions.(例如,有证据表明恐惧有气味,闻到一个焦虑的人的汗味可以启动大脑中涉及移情和处理情绪的部分的活动。)”说明其它的情绪传播途径。故选D。
【19题详解】
上文“Researchers have shown that emotions can spread through social media.(研究人员表明,情绪可以通过社交媒体传播)”说明情绪可以通过社交媒体传播。G项中的“posts”是属于社交媒体的一种,所以G项“接触到更多负面帖子的人更有可能自己发布负面消息。”符合语境,举例证明上面提到的观点。故选G。
【20题详解】
上文“If and when you encounter an opposite emotion to your own, the experience will likely vary depending on how invested you are in that other person or people. (如果你遇到与自己相反的情绪,这种经历可能会因你对他人的付出程度而异)”说明付出的程度对影响他人的情绪有很大的作用。F项中的“如果你关心他们,你会更有动力在情感上转变,以适应他们的状态。”符合语境。该项中的“If you care about them”和前文中的“depending on how invested you are in that other person or people”相呼应。和下文并列例证解释前面提到的观点。故选F。

【37题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:7月2日,备受期待的动画电影《长安三万里》在一个曾经与其同名的城市,现在被称为陕西西安的地方举行了首映式,这部史诗让一些唐代(618-907)最著名的诗人复活了。分析句子可知,横线处作定语修饰名词短语animated movie,非谓语动词expect与movie之间是被动关系,所以空处用形容词化的过去分词expected作定语。故填expected。
【38题详解】

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。
I hadn’t decided whether to fly home for Thanksgiving yet. I didn’t have the money for the ticket, plus I wasn’t sure I could get enough time off from my job.
All that wondering changed when my mom called. She got right to the point: “Your grandmother isn’t well. Your dad and I decided I should fly out there for Thanksgiving.” Mom was an only child, so that made sense to me. But I was not ready for what I heard next. “We decided you should come along, so I cover your ticket.”
As always, Mom’s plan went off all right. I met her at the airport. Mom was anxious to see her parents, especially her mother, who was really fragile(虚弱). When we finally got to their house, we said hello and then Grandpa helped Grandma lie down again and took us to the living room, telling us we would eat Thanksgiving dinner at noon. He went into the kitchen.
Mom paced(踱步) the floor. I asked her what the matter was. “He can’t cook,” she shook her head. “How’s he supposed to fix a Thanksgiving meal for us ”
I tried to reason with her. “Can’t you smell dinner Grandma is upstairs resting. Grandpa is the only one who could be cooking.” But we couldn’t see through the kitchen door.
Mom had an idea. “Let’s sneak out(溜出去) the front door and see what’s going on. Then we will know who is really cooking.” Grandpa had trouble hearing, so he didn’t hear us leave. It was a crazy plan. I followed her around the house to the kitchen windows. There we watched Grandpa fill water glasses and make coffee. “When did he learn to make coffee ” Mom asked. Quietly, we ran back around the side of the house and into the living room.
注意:1.续写词数应为150个左右;
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Finally, the kitchen door opened at noon.
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
“Wow, I can’t believe it! This smells so good,” I said.
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】 Finally, the kitchen door opened at noon. We peeked through the kitchen window and saw Grandpa carrying a large tray full of food. He placed it on the table and then motioned for us to come in. Mom and I looked at each other, mouths open in surprise.
“Wow, I can’t believe it! This smells so good,” I said. We gathered around the table, and Mom served the food. As we took our first bite, we couldn’t help but smile. The turkey was tender and juicy, the mashed potatoes were creamy, and the gravy was rich and flavorful. The cranberry sauce and stuffing were homemade and delicious. “Grandpa, this is the best Thanksgiving dinner I’ve ever had,” I said, looking across the table at him. He smiled with pride. “I’m glad you like it. I learned to cook when your grandma got too sick to do it herself.” “I had no idea you could cook like this,” Mom said, shaking her head in amazement. “Well, there’s a lot about me that you don’t know,” Grandpa teased. We all laughed and continued to enjoy the delicious meal. It was a Thanksgiving that we would remember for a long time to come.

Four Cool Languages
Chinese
Around 1.4 billion people speak Chinese. Chinese is a tonal (声调的) language, meaning that changing the tone of just one syllable (音节) can affect a word’s meaning. Chinese writing has ancient roots, which is thought to have developed starting around 2000 B. C.
Arabic
Over 370 million people speak Arabic. Written Arabic uses a cursive-style font (连笔) that looks more like artworks than writing. Arabic is written from right to left rather than left to right, making it different from many other languages.
English
Around 379 million people speak English as a native language. It’s an official language in a huge number of other countries.
English is the most widely spoken second language, with over a billion people speaking it as a non-native language. That means around twice as many people speak English as a second language than people who speak it as a first language.
Italian
Nearly 68 million people speak Italian. If you play music or sing, chances are that you already know a lot of Italian because many familiar musical terms are actually Italian.
Not only will learning Italian help you pick up vocabulary, but it will also help you understand the meanings of musical terms in greater depth.
1. What is a feature of Arabic
A. It doesn’t have cursive-style fonts. B. It helps artists with their artworks.
C. It is written from right to left. D. It is closely related to music.
2. Which language is the most widely used as a second language in the world
A. Arabic. B. English. C. Chinese. D. Italian.
3. What’s the number of people who speak Italian
A. Nearly 68 million. B. Around 370 million.
C. Over 379 million. D. Around 1.4 billion.
B
People who give, live longer, studies have shown. Now, a new study by University of Michigan shows that why people volunteer—not whether they volunteer—is what really counts.
For the study, Konrath and colleagues analyzed data collected in 2008 and 2012 aiming at the same random samples of 3,376 people. Overall, they found that just 2.3 percent of those who once worked as volunteers had died, compared to 4.3 percent of non-volunteers. They further found that how much people volunteered mattered as well—only 1.8 percent of regular volunteers died, compared with 2.5 percent of occasional volunteers.
But what really made a difference were people’s motives for volunteering. The researchers asked people to rate how important they found various reasons for volunteering, and they found that the more important people rated reasons such as feeling pity for people in need, the more likely they were to be alive. Those who rated motives related to personal benefit as more important were more likely to have died, and just as likely to die as those who didn’t volunteer at all. These reasons included volunteering because they enjoyed the social contact, to escape their own problems, or to explore their own strengths.
Konrath says the current findings suggest it may be a poor idea to encourage people to volunteer because it’s good for them. “Volunteering is increasingly being encouraged in schools and organizations. Some groups say that it’s okay to want benefits for yourself, and encourage people to think of volunteering as an exchange for personal interests. Some groups emphasize the health benefits received through volunteering.” Konrath added, “Of course, it’s reasonable for volunteers to expect benefits for themselves. But the potential health benefits of volunteering are significantly reduced if self-benefit becomes a person’s main motive.”
4. What does the new study mainly find
A. How we volunteer makes sense to others. B. How often we volunteer makes a difference.
C. Whether we volunteer decides our well-being. D. Why we volunteer has an impact on our health.
5. How did the researchers do the study
A. By analyzing statistics. B. By rating volunteers’ performances.
C. By doing lab experiments. D. By grouping participants randomly.
6. Which of the following motives will probably contribute to a longer life
A. To develop abilities. B. To make more friends.
C. To help the poor people. D. To solve personal problems.
7. What is the last paragraph mainly about
A. Practical suggestions on further studies. B. A further explanation of the current findings.
C. Potential applications of the research method. D. A reasonable doubt about the research results.
C
When Kurt Benirschke started collecting skin samples from endangered animals in 1972, he didn’t have a firm plan on what to do with them. As a researcher at the University of California San Diego, he believed that one day these samples would be used to save these animals. A few years later, he moved his collection to the San Diego Zoo, and called it the Frozen Zoo.
For a long time, it was the only project of its kind; however, in recent years, similar conservation efforts have spread globally, and tools that Benirschke didn’t yet have are now available. Today, the Frozen Zoo is the world’s largest animal cryobank(生物冷冻库), holding samples from over 10,500 individual animals from 1,220 species, in the hope that one day science can bring them back as a species.
The Frozen Zoo’s advanced technology is the key to its success in saving species from extinction. By using cryopreservation techniques, the zoo can store cells and tissues from endangered animals. The stored genetic material can be used for research, breeding(繁殖) programs, and potentially even cloning or genetic engineering to restore endangered species.
By protecting the genetic heritage of endangered animals, the Frozen Zoo provides hope for the survival of species that would otherwise be at risk of dying out, and the preservation of Earth’s precious biodiversity. It has inspired the establishment of similar cryobanks worldwide, expanding efforts to conserve endangered species. These cryobanks contribute to the global network of genetic resources, improving cooperation and knowledge exchange. By demonstrating the potential of technology in the preservation of biodiversity, the frozen zoo serves as a powerful tool in raising awareness and driving change.
The Frozen Zoo is like a time capsule, preserving the genetic heritage of endangered species for future generations. It reminds us about the importance of conservation and offers a window into a world that could otherwise be lost forever.
8. What do we know about the Frozen Zoo
A. It is the world’s oldest and largest animal cryobank.
B. It started with a detailed plan led by Kurt Benirschke.
C. It is a project to explore the evolution of animal species.
D. It was established to protect animals in the San Diego Zoo.
9. How does the Frozen Zoo save species from extinction
A. By expanding their natural habitats.
B. By raising their survival rate with genetic technology.
C. By preserving their genetic material for further research.
D. By innovating breeding techniques to increase their population.
10. Why does the author mention “time capsule” in the last paragraph
A. To stress the importance of the Frozen Zoo.
B. To explain the urgency of saving endangered species.
C. To prove the potential value of preserving biodiversity.
D. To show the necessity of cooperative conservation efforts.
11. What words could best describe the Frozen Zoo project
A. Costly and controversial. B. Profitable and instructive.
C. Conservative and effective. D. Pioneering and significant.
D
When Richard Oswald was growing up in northwestern Missouri in the 1950s, his dad had a firm rule: Don’t plant corn until mid-May. But that rule has become a relic of the past. In Rock Port, a small farming community near the Nebraska border, the growing season now begins more than a month earlier.
That’s not surprising. Across much of the US, winter is not as cold as it used to be. The four warmest Januaries on record have all occurred since 2016. In Missouri, winters are about 4 degrees hotter on average than in 1970-and farmers are starting to feel the effects.
As the planet continues to warm, cold winter weather will become less common, said Amy Butler, a re-search scientist studying climate variability. “However, less cold does not mean never cold.” Butler said. In the past decade, Liz Graznak’s organic vegetable farm near Columbia, Missouri, has endured increasingly extreme swings in weather. “We don’t get a couple of inches of snow; we get 18 inches of snow all at once and then in five days, it’ s 70 degrees again.” Graznak said. “We don’t get a couple of inches of rain; we get a 12-inch downpour in the span of 24 hours. That’s devastating(毁灭性的)to a vegetable farm.”
To help protect her crops, Graznak has built four large greenhouses on her property in just over a decade. Inside, she’s able to grow delicate, high-value crops, including flowers, lettuce and spinach.
But these greenhouses come at a steep cost. Nearly seven years ago, Graznak spent more than $18,000 to build a greenhouse and since then, the price has more than doubled. “When I think about these costs, in my brain, I say, ‘OK, how many heads of lettuce is that ’” She said. “I know I can sell a head of lettuce for $4, so how many heads of lettuce do I have to sell to be able to pay for that greenhouse And that’s a lot of lettuce.”
12. What does the author want to show by telling Richard Oswald’s story
A. New farmers should learn to farm on their own.
B. New farmers aren’t as experienced as old ones.
C. Following traditional farming rules is essential.
D. Climate change is changing farming rules.
13. What did Liz Graznak experience in the past decade
A. Many extreme weather events.
B. A winter without any cold days.
C. Less snow and rain on the whole.
D. More stable temperature than before.
14. What can be inferred from Liz Graznak’s words in the last paragraph
A. The profits of her farm have increased.
B. She has lost hope in the future of farming.
C. The cost of farming has greatly increased.
D. Budgeting is important in modern farming.
15. What would be the best title for the text
A. Farmers in the US are troubled by floods
B. Farmers are worried about the future of farming
C. Farmers are feeling climate change’s effect in the US
D. Farmers are turning to greenhouses due to climate change

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。
I hadn’t decided whether to fly home for Thanksgiving yet. I didn’t have the money for the ticket, plus I wasn’t sure I could get enough time off from my job.
All that wondering changed when my mom called. She got right to the point: “Your grandmother isn’t well. Your dad and I decided I should fly out there for Thanksgiving.” Mom was an only child, so that made sense to me. But I was not ready for what I heard next. “We decided you should come along, so I cover your ticket.”
As always, Mom’s plan went off all right. I met her at the airport. Mom was anxious to see her parents, especially her mother, who was really fragile(虚弱). When we finally got to their house, we said hello and then Grandpa helped Grandma lie down again and took us to the living room, telling us we would eat Thanksgiving dinner at noon. He went into the kitchen.
Mom paced(踱步) the floor. I asked her what the matter was. “He can’t cook,” she shook her head. “How’s he supposed to fix a Thanksgiving meal for us ”
I tried to reason with her. “Can’t you smell dinner Grandma is upstairs resting. Grandpa is the only one who could be cooking.” But we couldn’t see through the kitchen door.
Mom had an idea. “Let’s sneak out(溜出去) the front door and see what’s going on. Then we will know who is really cooking.” Grandpa had trouble hearing, so he didn’t hear us leave. It was a crazy plan. I followed her around the house to the kitchen windows. There we watched Grandpa fill water glasses and make coffee. “When did he learn to make coffee ” Mom asked. Quietly, we ran back around the side of the house and into the living room.
注意:1.续写词数应为150个左右;
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Finally, the kitchen door opened at noon.
