Air-crash investigators Larry Vance and Anthony Brickhouse have details from certain jobs rooted in their memories. They could tell exact dates, locations, and fight numbers effortlessly. Vance’s “big one” is Swiss Air Flight 11 in 1998. He was put in the position of dealing with all the families from very early on, many of whom held the hope that their relatives could have survived. All 229 passengers and crew died. Burning fabric; burning flesh. The smell catches in your throat, and stays in your mind long after you’ve left the scene. Investigations can take anywhere from days to years.
“What can affect people in these jobs is the ongoing emotional damage,” said Vivien Lee, a psychologist. But mental health assistance is often lacking within the industry. Evidence suggests that investigators. like first responders, can suffer from negative emotional effects, including frequent thoughts and PTSD (创伤后应激障碍).
“One emotion of losing relatives is anger,” Brickhouse reflected. “And they’re looking to you to figure out what happened to their loved ones.” Depending on the size of the crash, that anger can come alongside a lot of international media attention.”
But more often, Vance said, the questions he faces are perhaps even tougher to answer than what caused the crash. “How did my loved one die What were they feeling What were they seeing ” And tougher still: “Were they suffering ”
Listening to the black box recordings takes an emotional damage. He said it was more unbearable by knowing that he’s listening to the final minutes of someone’s life. Some people in his industry listen to a black box recording once and choose to never do it again, he said.
The knowledge that they’re doing an essential job can make the tougher aspects of the work a little easier. “The end result of your work is that you try to make the world a safer place, so that this doesn’t happen to somebody else,” Vance said.
28. What can be inferred about the air-crash investigators
A. They often get throat problems
B. They must have good memories.
C. They experienced the same accident.
D. They have to face many challenges.
29. What should be done to help the air-crash investigators
A. Helping them avoid air crashes. B. Sending first respondents with them.
C. Offering qualified psychologists D. Teaching them how to communicate.
30. Which of the following statements is true, according to Vance’s words
A. Making the world a safer place takes time.
B. Answering the relatives’ questions is tougher.
C. Investigating the cause of the crash is bearable.
D. Finding the black box takes an emotional damage.
31. Which word can be used to describe the air-crash investigators
A. Self-giving. B. Easy-going. C. Generous. D. Independent.
D
When James Haskell started playing professional rugby football, technology’ influence was very limited. One of its first and important uses within the game, he says, was just urine testing (尿检). “A lot has changed since then. Now all the players wear GPS heart-rate monitors,” the former England and Wasps ruby union player says. Data and technology have become important parts of a professional sports team and its players’ lives, Haskell says.
But this is only the beginning.
“New 5G will bring a whole set of new devices to the sports industry and the connectivity of supply chains that isn’t possible today,” explains Scott Petty, the chief technology officer of Vodafone UK. Vodafone’s recent research shows 70 per cent of decision-makers in the sports industry believe it is behind other industries in, adopting new technology.
However, things are changing gradually. The research suggests that 76 per cent of sports leaders say new 5G technology will drive innovation within their organizations. According to research, sport is an area where new 5G will have a huge impact. It has the ability to transform the fan experience and help athletes improve their fitness and training programmes. Around 74 per cent of sports leaders believe 5G will help meet rising fan expectations.
Haskell is looking forward to seeing what 5G will enable in the future. Vodafone’s new 5G network was launched (推出) in July. At the launch, two Wasps players demonstrated an innovative use of the tech when they conducted a joint training session, despite being 100 miles apart. At an event in London, Will Rowlands (擒抱摔倒) tackled a bag and almost at the same time, through wearable devices, De Jongh felt the force of the tackle.
Going forwards, Haskell expects that players will be able to quantify (量化) their performance in new ways. The key to this The ability to read real-time data and make training programmes completely personalized.
Haskell says, “This ability will be terrific and you’ll suddenly be able to quantify everything!”
This will be game-changing.
32. What does Haskell say about the early use of technology in rugby football
A. It mainly focused on performance data collecting.
B. It changed his attitude towards rugby football.
C. It excited people’s attention to rugby football.
D. It made an impact only to a small extent.
33. What can we learn from Vodafone’s recent research
A. The sports industry should find a new way to meet fan expectations.
B. The sports industry plays a leading part in adopting new technology.
C. Most sports leaders have a very positive response to new 5G technology.
D. New 5G technology will be widely used in the sports industry very soon.
34. How did the demonstration of Vodafone’s new 5G network turn out
A. It was a real success. B It raised doubts among players.
C. It made Vodafone world-famous. D. It fell far short of the expectations.
35. What does the underlined word “terrific” in paragraph7mean？
A. Unnecessary. B. Impressive. C. Unique. D. Impossible.

根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Learn a new language and, at some point, you’ll meet native speakers that have you questioning your language abilities. 36 And what’s that slang (俚语) they’re using ! If this sounds all too familiar to you, then welcome! You’ve leveled up to a new stage of language learning best known as the dialect. The differences between a dialect and a language have a number of technicalities and exceptions tied to them. But as a language learner, you’re probably more interested in the practical takeaway.
37 . We can see how the standard elements of English change across the US, the UK, and even Singapore, where Singlish exists as a hyper-regional dialect of English.
The first thing you’ll notice about each English dialect is the shift in pronunciation. This shift, better known as an accent, is an important element of a dialect. 38 . Don’t worry too much about this. What’s important is that you’re able to identify differences during conversations and feel comfortable adapting to them.
Studies show that children who primarily speak a dialect are hyper-aware of the differences, and are able to reach reading and writing goals more quickly as a result. 39 Learning a dialect, rather than just the standard language, requires a deeper dig into cultural nuances (细微差异) that aren’t lost on native speakers. In short: Learning a dialect shows that you care! It’s an incredible way to connect with new cultural communities in the process.
Before you learn a dialect, you should have a firm grasp of the fundamentals of a “standard” language. That way, you’ll be able to gain meaning through context. 40 Movies, music, books, and news are all fantastic ways to pick up on those dialectical nuances.
A. Then, enlarge your exposure.
B. There’re many varieties of English.
How does their accent sound so different
D. But accent isn’t always necessary to a dialect.
E. Dialects also allow you to build deeper connections.
K. Some people are good at shifting between different accents.
G. Dialects are often closely tied with geographical boundaries.

30. B 细节理解题。根据文章第四段的句子“…the questions he faces are perhaps even tougher to answer than what caused the crash.”以及“‘How did my loved one die What were they feeling What were they seeing ’”可知，Vance所指的questions是来自遇难者的亲属，而空难调查员认为回答他们的问题往往更困难，故选B。
31. A 推理判断题。根据文章第五段第三句“Some people in his industry listen to a black box recording once and choose to never do it again, he said.”及最后一段最后一句“The end result of your work is that you try to make the world a safer place, so that this doesn’t happen to somebody else,”可知，尽管聆听黑匣子录音是一项难以忍受的工作，但空难调查员还是为了让世界变得更安全而选择坚持这项工作。由此推知，他们是无私的。故选A。
D
【语篇导读】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了5G技术在橄榄球运动中的应用对量化运动员表现的帮助。
32. D 推理判断题。根据第一段第I句“When James Haskell started playing professional rugby football, technology’ influence was very limited. One of its first and important uses within the game, he says, was just urine testing (尿检).”中“limited”可知在橄榄球比赛早期，科技的运用有限，即D选项中所述：科技对橄榄球比赛的影响范围较小。
33. C 细节推理题。根据第四段第2句“The research suggests that 76 per cent of sports leaders say new 5G technology will drive innovation within their organizations.”可知Vodafone的研究说明大多数体有界领袖认为5G技术能促进体育运动的创新，符合C选项。
34. A 推理判断题，根据第五段第3和第4句话“At the launch, two Wasps players demonstrated an innovative use of the tech when they conducted a joint training session, despite being 100 miles apart. At an event in London, Will Rowlands tackled (擒抱摔倒) a bag and almost at the same time, through wearable devices, De Jongh felt the force of the tackle.”的两个例子可知，自Vodafone的5G网络推出以来，该网络已经得到运用，并可以帮助运动员更好地进行训练，符合A选项：该网络的运用结果是成功的。
35. B 词义推断题。terrific的含义可以根据上下文判断出来。据第六段最后一句“The ability to read real-time data and make training programmes completely personalized.”，以及最后的一段“This will be game-changing.”可知量化运动员的表现数据可以帮助运动员定制个性化的训练项目，改变体育运动的现状，有助于体育事业发展，因此terrific (极好的)的近义词是B选项impressive (令人印象深刻的)。
第二节
【语篇导读】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了外语方言的特点与学习方法。
36. C 考查上下文串联。根据前文“native speakers that have you questioning your language abilities”以及后文“You’ve leveled up to a new stage of language learning best known as the dialect.”可知本文在讲述外语学习中的方言学习。与此同时，根据36题空后的“And what’s that slang (俚语) they’re using !”可知该部分在谈论方言的特点，一方面是俚语，而另一方面应该是36题所谈论的内容，C选项中的“accent”口音也属于方言的特点，并且C选项和“And what’s that slang (俚语) they’re using!”都是疑问句，结构相符，因此本题选C。
37. G 考查上下文串联。第二段后续内容“We can see how the standard elements of English change across the US, the UK, and even Singapore, where Singlish exists as a hyper-regional dialect of English.”谈论了英语在美国、英国、新加坡不同地域有所变化，并且还提到新加坡英语是非常有地域特征的英语方言，由此可知本段主要谈论方言和地域的关系，符合G选项。
38. D 考查上下文串联。38题前一句提到语音上的转化是方言的重要元素，但38题后文又提到不要担心这种语音上的转化，更重要的是能够在对话中辨别出语音上的差异，并能够适应它，由此可知作者想表达的其实是语音并不是那么得重要，符合D选项。
39. E 考查上下文串联。从第四段第1句可知本段谈论学习方言的好处，第一条就是可以让孩子更快达成阅读和写作目标。因此，39题也应该继续谈论学习方言的好处，符合该题的是E选项：方言有助于人们建立更深入的连接。除此之外，根据39题后文可知，学习方言要求学习者具备深入察觉文化细微差异的能力，出现了比较级“a deeper dig into cultural nuances”，E选项中也出现了“deeper connections”，可以使前后文形成对应。
40. A 考查上下文串联。最后一段在谈论学习方言前的准备工作，40题前文提到要打牢标准语言的基础，并从语境中理解意义，40题后文列举了一些理解意义的途径，即“movies, music, books, and news’”,由此可知4O题应该要对后文列举的信息进行概括，即A选项：加大接触语言的机会。
第三部分 语言运用

M: American students have experienced a worldwide health crisis, nationwide protests and school closings and restrictions over the past two years. But art classes in schools have helped some students deal with their emotions and difficulties.
Art classes like painting, music and acting classes, provide a way for students to express themselves.
“I remember that students felt comfortable only in the band room,” said Gary Mayne, who is a behavioral expert and former music teacher.
Some experts say art classes provide a way to teach social and emotional learning. Social and emotional learning deals with finding a way for students to control their emotions, have relationships with others and show empathy. Many schools place a lot of attention on social and emotional learning. This could be because students’ mental health has become more of a concern following the coronavirus pandemic.
“Art educators, they see kids for multiple years,” Maurice Elias told Chalkbeat, a non-profit news provider. Elias is head of the Rutgers University Social-Emotional and Character Development Lab in New Jersey. “They build strong relationships and connections with the kids. They have a tremendous influence on their mental health. “
Sarah Potpinka teaches eight subjects as the only art teacher at Putnam High School in Connecticut. When classes went online, she asked her student to take pictures of how their lives had changed during the pandemic. Many of her students’ works were filled with anger.

Bianca Brown, a junior at Springfield High School, had always enjoyed arts and crafts as a child. So, when her busy schedule was crossed out by COVID-19, Bianca looked to her past to design her future.
She ordered ingredients (材料) and mixed them together to create soaps of different shapes and other personal care products. “I really could start a business doing this,” she thought.
Thus, Bianca created Simply B. LLC, a beauty brand selling personal care products to friends and family at first. Through the use of the social media app, TikTok, Bianca was able to reach thousands of customers.
“I woke up to 50 orders the next day after my first video spread on the Internet,” she said.

Bianca is among the busiest at her high school. She plays volleyball, runs track and field, and recently started a Black student union. She is a member of the community service club and is also a part of the National Honour Society. With her high marks, it’s clear that none of her academic (学业的) responsibilities take a back seat to her small business. But still, Bianca succeeds as both student and businesswoman.

Air-crash investigators Larry Vance and Anthony Brickhouse have details from certain jobs rooted in their memories. They could tell exact dates, locations, and fight numbers effortlessly. Vance’s “big one” is Swiss Air Flight 11 in 1998. He was put in the position of dealing with all the families from very early on, many of whom held the hope that their relatives could have survived. All 229 passengers and crew died. Burning fabric; burning flesh. The smell catches in your throat, and stays in your mind long after you’ve left the scene. Investigations can take anywhere from days to years.
“What can affect people in these jobs is the ongoing emotional damage,” said Vivien Lee, a psychologist. But mental health assistance is often lacking within the industry. Evidence suggests that investigators. like first responders, can suffer from negative emotional effects, including frequent thoughts and PTSD (创伤后应激障碍).
“One emotion of losing relatives is anger,” Brickhouse reflected. “And they’re looking to you to figure out what happened to their loved ones.” Depending on the size of the crash, that anger can come alongside a lot of international media attention.”
But more often, Vance said, the questions he faces are perhaps even tougher to answer than what caused the crash. “How did my loved one die What were they feeling What were they seeing ” And tougher still: “Were they suffering ”
Listening to the black box recordings takes an emotional damage. He said it was more unbearable by knowing that he’s listening to the final minutes of someone’s life. Some people in his industry listen to a black box recording once and choose to never do it again, he said.
The knowledge that they’re doing an essential job can make the tougher aspects of the work a little easier. “The end result of your work is that you try to make the world a safer place, so that this doesn’t happen to somebody else,” Vance said.
28. What can be inferred about the air-crash investigators
A. They often get throat problems
B. They must have good memories.
C. They experienced the same accident.
D. They have to face many challenges.
29. What should be done to help the air-crash investigators
A. Helping them avoid air crashes. B. Sending first respondents with them.
C. Offering qualified psychologists D. Teaching them how to communicate.
30. Which of the following statements is true, according to Vance’s words
A. Making the world a safer place takes time.
B. Answering the relatives’ questions is tougher.
C. Investigating the cause of the crash is bearable.
D. Finding the black box takes an emotional damage.
31. Which word can be used to describe the air-crash investigators
A. Self-giving. B. Easy-going. C. Generous. D. Independent.
D
When James Haskell started playing professional rugby football, technology’ influence was very limited. One of its first and important uses within the game, he says, was just urine testing (尿检). “A lot has changed since then. Now all the players wear GPS heart-rate monitors,” the former England and Wasps ruby union player says. Data and technology have become important parts of a professional sports team and its players’ lives, Haskell says.
But this is only the beginning.
“New 5G will bring a whole set of new devices to the sports industry and the connectivity of supply chains that isn’t possible today,” explains Scott Petty, the chief technology officer of Vodafone UK. Vodafone’s recent research shows 70 per cent of decision-makers in the sports industry believe it is behind other industries in, adopting new technology.
However, things are changing gradually. The research suggests that 76 per cent of sports leaders say new 5G technology will drive innovation within their organizations. According to research, sport is an area where new 5G will have a huge impact. It has the ability to transform the fan experience and help athletes improve their fitness and training programmes. Around 74 per cent of sports leaders believe 5G will help meet rising fan expectations.
Haskell is looking forward to seeing what 5G will enable in the future. Vodafone’s new 5G network was launched (推出) in July. At the launch, two Wasps players demonstrated an innovative use of the tech when they conducted a joint training session, despite being 100 miles apart. At an event in London, Will Rowlands (擒抱摔倒) tackled a bag and almost at the same time, through wearable devices, De Jongh felt the force of the tackle.
Going forwards, Haskell expects that players will be able to quantify (量化) their performance in new ways. The key to this The ability to read real-time data and make training programmes completely personalized.
Haskell says, “This ability will be terrific and you’ll suddenly be able to quantify everything!”
This will be game-changing.
32. What does Haskell say about the early use of technology in rugby football
A. It mainly focused on performance data collecting.
B. It changed his attitude towards rugby football.
C. It excited people’s attention to rugby football.
D. It made an impact only to a small extent.
33. What can we learn from Vodafone’s recent research
A. The sports industry should find a new way to meet fan expectations.
B. The sports industry plays a leading part in adopting new technology.
C. Most sports leaders have a very positive response to new 5G technology.
D. New 5G technology will be widely used in the sports industry very soon.
34. How did the demonstration of Vodafone’s new 5G network turn out
A. It was a real success. B It raised doubts among players.
C. It made Vodafone world-famous. D. It fell far short of the expectations.
35. What does the underlined word “terrific” in paragraph7mean？
A. Unnecessary. B. Impressive. C. Unique. D. Impossible.
第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分）
根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Learn a new language and, at some point, you’ll meet native speakers that have you questioning your language abilities. 36 And what’s that slang (俚语) they’re using ! If this sounds all too familiar to you, then welcome! You’ve leveled up to a new stage of language learning best known as the dialect. The differences between a dialect and a language have a number of technicalities and exceptions tied to them. But as a language learner, you’re probably more interested in the practical takeaway.
37 . We can see how the standard elements of English change across the US, the UK, and even Singapore, where Singlish exists as a hyper-regional dialect of English.
The first thing you’ll notice about each English dialect is the shift in pronunciation. This shift, better known as an accent, is an important element of a dialect. 38 . Don’t worry too much about this. What’s important is that you’re able to identify differences during conversations and feel comfortable adapting to them.
Studies show that children who primarily speak a dialect are hyper-aware of the differences, and are able to reach reading and writing goals more quickly as a result. 39 Learning a dialect, rather than just the standard language, requires a deeper dig into cultural nuances (细微差异) that aren’t lost on native speakers. In short: Learning a dialect shows that you care! It’s an incredible way to connect with new cultural communities in the process.
Before you learn a dialect, you should have a firm grasp of the fundamentals of a “standard” language. That way, you’ll be able to gain meaning through context. 40 Movies, music, books, and news are all fantastic ways to pick up on those dialectical nuances.
A. Then, enlarge your exposure.
B. There’re many varieties of English.
How does their accent sound so different
D. But accent isn’t always necessary to a dialect.
E. Dialects also allow you to build deeper connections.
K. Some people are good at shifting between different accents.
G. Dialects are often closely tied with geographical boundaries.

Sorry.” Emily looked down at her skateboard, wiped her tears and murmured, “Actually, that’s OK.” spinning the loose wheel.
“I can fix it,” Frank said with confidence. Grabbing her skateboard, he tightened the screws skillfully in no time. Soon enough, he looked up and handed the skateboard to Emily.

You know, I didn’t go anywhere either this summer,” he said. Then they three looked at each other and burst into laughter. It was at that moment that both Emily and Frank truly understood they did not have to travel far to learn anything new.

M: American students have experienced a worldwide health crisis, nationwide protests and school closings and restrictions over the past two years. But art classes in schools have helped some students deal with their emotions and difficulties.
Art classes like painting, music and acting classes, provide a way for students to express themselves.
“I remember that students felt comfortable only in the band room,” said Gary Mayne, who is a behavioral expert and former music teacher.
Some experts say art classes provide a way to teach social and emotional learning. Social and emotional learning deals with finding a way for students to control their emotions, have relationships with others and show empathy. Many schools place a lot of attention on social and emotional learning. This could be because students’ mental health has become more of a concern following the coronavirus pandemic.
“Art educators, they see kids for multiple years,” Maurice Elias told Chalkbeat, a non-profit news provider. Elias is head of the Rutgers University Social-Emotional and Character Development Lab in New Jersey. “They build strong relationships and connections with the kids. They have a tremendous influence on their mental health. “
Sarah Potpinka teaches eight subjects as the only art teacher at Putnam High School in Connecticut. When classes went online, she asked her student to take pictures of how their lives had changed during the pandemic. Many of her students’ works were filled with anger.
