Top 4 Places in Europe to Experience a Warm Winter
Capri, Italy
It’s where cliffs (悬崖) and monuments stand tall over dreamy blue waters. Soft sun and warm waters go with you whether you visit the Blue Grotto (the most famous sight in the island) or spend a day in the seaside village of Pizzolungo. Make the most of the weather by walking along the Gardens of Augustus.
Crete, Greece
As November calls it an end and December begins people of Crete get busy in gathering oranges. The largest island in Greece never runs out of warmth even during the height of winter. If you are a Northerner, you would appreciate the calm Mediterranean Sea and the uninterrupted days of golden sun. Before you settle down at village bars (酒馆), get an understanding of the place by visiting the Archaeological Museum of Heraklion that houses collections spanning (跨越) 5, 500 years.
Cyprus
Spending a European winter on this Mediterranean island is not just about climbing mountains, watching birds, and sunbathing on blue-flag beaches. You ought to enjoy a Christmas dinner with stuffed turkey and roast lamb and take part in parties on New Year’s Eve in downtown Limassol. When you have such lovely weather by your side, you won’t mind wandering into the trails of history by visiting the Katos Pafos Archaeological Park and the Baths of Aphrodite.
Monaco
Its winter may be mild but its offerings are wonderful. While the French Riviera is amazing, Monaco Dance Forum in December is enriching. In fact, the Monaco Cathedral is a great masterpiece that deserves admiration. If you are not in for spending your time in the famous Monte Carlo Casino, make the most of a sunny day and spend time at the Exotic Gardens or the famous Oceanographic Museum.

Like most tourists, I enjoy taking photographs on holiday and can’t wait to show them to my friends and family when I get back. But while for me they represent treasured memories, to others they are more often than not simply a collection of boring, badly composed, out-of-focus pictures. So this year I decided to do something about this by booking myself on a trip to Rome which included photography lessons.
The first time I went to Rome, I remember thinking that it was a fantastic place for photographers with a wonderful photo opportunity lying around every corner. Yet by myself I didn’t have a clue how to go about getting some good shots. Added to this was the fact that there were crowds of tourists everywhere, blocking all the best views. But this second time things were different. Antonio, my photography tutor, was on hand to give expert advice every step of the way. The first thing Antonio told our group was that the secret to creating a good photographic image rather than just a snapshot (快照) is to first take a long look at what you want to photograph. Our first port of call was Piazza Navona, where Antonio gave us advice about how to photograph the Fountain of Neptune. For the next couple of hours, we wandered around the historic center visiting many of Rome’s architectural highlights. I didn’t get at all tired, even though I was on my feet for such a long time. And I felt that I was really able to appreciate the sights as I had to look at each one so carefully in order to get good pictures. It felt like a whole new world had opened up to me.
I learnt an incredible amount over the next two days, as well as having a thoroughly enjoyable time in one of the world’s most beautiful cities. Maybe my friends and family will show a little more enthusiasm when I show them my holiday snaps from now on!

Cherry blossoms (樱花) in Kyoto, Japan, reached peak bloom (绽放) on March 26 this year — the earliest the event has occurred in 1,200 years of records. Why so soon
According to records previously collected by Professor Yasuyuki Aono, Kyoto’s cherry blossoms had consistently flowered around April 10 to 17 for over a thousand years. The Washington Post reports that Japan’s most famous flowers have been trending toward blooming earlier each spring, with scientists blaming the phenomenon on increasing global temperatures. And this year, the peak has shifted all the way into the previous month. “The Kyoto Cherry Blossom record is incredibly valuable for climate change research. Even a slight drop or rise of springtime temperatures can be recorded by it,” research scientist Benjamin Cook said, noting that warmer temperatures typically mean cherry blossoms bloom earlier.
Cherry blossoms are influenced so easily by temperature that trees in Tokyo even bloomed in autumn after typhoons caused warmer weather in 2018. Meanwhile, Aono estimated that Kyoto has warmed by 3.4 degrees Celsius since 1820.While this year’s cherry blossom peak was Kyoto’s earliest in 1,200 years, this isn’t the case in other parts of Japan Tokyo reached peak bloom on March 22, which is three days earlier than average and the earliest date since 1953.
However, the global trend seems to be slowly pushing cherry blossoms into full bloom to earlier in the year regardless of where they’re planted. In 2019, scientist Patrick Gonzalez noted that the trend of earlier blooming seen among cherry blossoms in Washington was “consistent with human-caused climate change.”
Cherry blossoms are considered in full or peak bloom when 80 percent of the flowers have bloomed, which usually occurs within a week of the first flowers opening. Elements other than may also be involved in the early blooming. Gonzalez offered the warning that “no research has examined all of the factors, and it is a long way to go.”
8. How does the author introduce the topic
A. By stating a fact. B. By giving an example.
C. By describing a custom. D. By sharing an experience.
9. What do Benjamin Cook’s words suggest
A. Cherry trees will die in cold weather. B. Springtime temperatures are falling.
C Cherry is sensitive to temperature change. D. Early blooming also appeared elsewhere.
10. What can we learn about cherry blossoms from the last paragraph
A. The studies have covered all factors.
B. Further scientific study is still needed.
C. Climate change is the only influential factor.
D. Reasons of early blooming have been identified.
11. What’s the purpose of the text
A To discuss the negative impact of human-caused climate change
B. To appeal to the public to appreciate Cherry blossoms
C. To call attention to the increasing global temperatures
D. To introduce one influential factor of Cherry blossoms blooming

Laura Stevens was nine years old. But every single time her mother and her father went out，they insisted that Mrs. Thomas stay with her. Laura didn't like Mrs. Thomas. She wouldn't let her stay up late to watch television, she wouldn't let her eat more than three cookies, and she even made Laura play games with her! "I'm not a baby”. Laura pleaded with her parents. "I'm nine years old. I don't need a baby-sitter. And if you make me have one, I'm going to go to my room and stay there forever”.
“Laura, "scolded her mother, "you're acting just like a baby. That's why you need a baby-sitter.” Laura sighed. But if she didn't complain, she wondered, would she still have to have a sitter But no matter what Laura did, every time her parents went out they insisted Mrs. Thomas stay with her. And every time Mrs. Thomas stayed with her, she was very nice to Laura, but made her obey stupid rules. But someday, Laura knew, someday she would be big enough to stay by herself, or at least have a baby-sitter who wasn't so bossy.
One night, Laura's parents had a big surprise for her. Mrs. Thomas had gone to visit her sister in another city. Her parents had hired a brand-new Robo-Sitter! When the Robo-Sitter was delivered，Laura was amazed to discover that she looked just like a real person and even sounded like a real person. Her father programmed the Robo-Sitter to make dinner for Laura, give her three cookies, help her with her homework, and so on. And then he programmed the Robo-Sitter to clean the whole house. When he pressed "Enter" the Robo-Sitter's eyes opened brightly and a big smile appeared on her face.
When Laura's parents left the house, Laura reprogrammed the Robo-Sitter! The Robo-Sitter whizzed around the whole house, cleaning it from top to bottom in less than a minute. Then she raced into the kitchen and returned carrying three whole boxes of cookies, which she handed to Laura. Then she did all of Laura’s homework in nine seconds. Then she put Laura's favorite movie in the VCR and got out of the way. Laura sat down in front of the TV set with her box of cookies and pressed the "Off" button. And just like that, the Robo-Sitter went to sleep. Laura ate her cookies and watched her movie. But after a little while, her stomach started hurting and she wanted someone to talk to. She turned on the Robo-Sitter, who immediately cleaned the whole house all over again, brought Laura three more boxes of cookies, and did Laura's homework for a second time. Laura tried to reprogram the robo-Sitter, but was only able to make her do the same things faster and faster. Laura had no choice and finally turned off the Robo-Sitter.
Paragraph1:
The house was very quiet.

推理判断题。根据第一段“Cherry blossoms in Kyoto, Japan, reached peak bloom on March 26 this year — the earliest the event has occurred in 1,200 years of records. Why so soon (日本京都的樱花于今年3月26日就达到了盛开的高峰，这是1200年来首次出现这种情况。为什么这么快 )”以及第二段“According to records previously collected by Professor Yasuyuki Aono, Kyoto’s cherry blossoms had consistently flowered around April 10 to 17 for over a thousand years. The Washington Post reports that Japan’s most famous flowers have been trending toward blooming earlier each spring, with scientists blaming the phenomenon on increasing global temperatures. And this year, the peak has shifted all the way into the previous month. “The Kyoto Cherry Blossom record is incredibly valuable for climate change research. Even a slight drop or rise of springtime temperatures can be recorded by it,” research scientist Benjamin Cook said, noting that warmer temperatures typically mean cherry blossoms bloom earlier. (根据青野康之教授之前收集的记录，一千多年来，京都的樱花一直在4月10日至17日左右开放。 据《华盛顿邮报》报道，每年春天，日本最著名的花都有提早开花的趋势，科学家将这一现象归咎于全球气温上升。而今年，峰值一直转移到前一个月。“京都樱花记录对气候变化研究具有不可思议的价值。即使是春季温度的轻微下降或上升，也能被它记录下来，”研究人员本杰明·库克指出，气温升高通常意味着樱花盛开得更早。)”可推知，作者通过陈述事实引入文章话题。故选A。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段中““The Kyoto Cherry Blossom record is incredibly valuable for climate change research. Even a slight drop or rise of springtime temperatures can be recorded by it,” research scientist Benjamin Cook said, noting that warmer temperatures typically mean cherry blossoms bloom earlier. (“京都樱花记录对气候变化研究具有不可思议的价值。即使是春季温度的轻微下降或上升，也能被它记录下来，”研究人员本杰明·库克指出，气温升高通常意味着樱花盛开得更早。) ”可推知，本杰明·库克的话暗示了樱花对温度变化很敏感。故选C。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段中“Elements other than climate change may also be involved in the early blooming. Gonzalez offered the warning that “no research has examined all of the factors, and it is a long way to go.” (除气候变化外，其他因素也可能与花期提前有关。 冈萨雷斯警告说，“没有研究检验过所有的因素，这是一段很长的路要走。”)”可知，樱花还要进一步的科学研究。故选B。
【11题详解】

While most people were stuck at home last year due to the COVID-19 pandemic, feeling isolated, some young people were thinking outside the box and reached for the sky as they created an impressive work.
When Bilibili uploader Lin Xiao, had too many bags to carry, instead of asking someone for help, the then 18-year-old spent about nine months addressing the problem. He built a robot, which can follow him wherever he goes, and upon which he can ride. The robot’s name Devil! The name comes from the background music Devil’s Swing (Remix) for the video game Bendy and the Ink Machine. It resembles a suitcase, which can follow Lin wherever he goes, day or night, and detect obstacles in its path. It can also be used for transport and even charges Lin’s electronic devices.
Lin did everything himself, from designing the robot with 3D modeling, manufacturing the physical parts and programming it, to assembling all the components and electronics. The robot has a steel structure, a 3D-printed plastic shell and two 2D laser and radar scanners. The brain of the robot is powered by Arduino, an open-source electronics platform, and computing and coding solutions from computer manufacturer Raspberry Pi.
Lin admits that Devil is not perfect, but he hopes that it can inspire his peers to believe “what you do matters” and that they can make a difference in people’s lives. He sees Devil as “a toddler who is learning to walk”.
Lin’s passion for robotics began in his first year at his high school, when a teacher, discovered his talent for working with computers. He provided full support to advance Lin’s skills and took him to various computer science competitions.
12. How did the robot get its name Devil
A. From a video. B. From an online game.
C. From a scientific fiction. D. From a piece of music.
13. Which of the following is NOT true about Lin Xiao’s robot
A. It looks like a suitcase. B. It is entirely made of steel.
C. It can charge cellphones. D. It can serve as a transportation tool.
14. What is the attitude of Lin Xiao to the robot Devil
A. Unsatisfied. B. Hopeful. C. Concerned. D. Critical.
15. What is the main idea of the passage
A. A young man thinking uniquely. B. An impressive robot.
C. A young tech influential. D. Lin’s passion for robotics.
【答案】12. D 13. B 14. B 15. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是新闻报道。这篇文章讲述了在COVID-19疫情期间，一些年轻人积极创新和尝试，其中18岁的林潇建造了一台智能机器人Devil，它可以跟随林潇走到任何地方以及携带物品，甚至能给电子设备充电。最后，林潇希望Devil能为同龄人们树立榜样，鼓励他们相信“你所做的事情很重要”，可以为社会做出贡献。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“The robot’s name Devil! The name comes from the background music Devil’s Swing (Remix) for the video game Bendy and the Ink Machine.(机器人的名字？Devil!这个名字来自电子游戏《班迪和墨水机》的背景音乐Devil’s Swing(混音))”可知，这个机器人的名字Devil是从一段音乐中来的。故选D项。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“The robot has a steel structure, a 3D-printed plastic shell and two 2D laser and radar scanners.(机器人有一个钢结构，一个3d打印的塑料外壳和两个2D激光和雷达扫描仪)”可知，机器人并不是全部是钢做的，外壳是塑料，所以B项“It is entirely made of steel.(它完全是钢做的)”的表述是错误的。故选B项。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“Lin admits that Devil is not perfect, but he hopes that it can inspire his peers to believe “what you do matters” and that they can make a difference in people’s lives. He sees Devil as “a toddler who is learning to walk”.(林承认Devil并不完美，但他希望它能激励他的同龄人相信“你所做的很重要”，他们可以改变别人的生活。他认为Devil是“一个正在学习走路的小孩”)”可知，林潇认为Devil是“一个正在学习走路的小孩”，所以对它是充满希望的。故选B项。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段“While most people were stuck at home last year due to the COVID-19 pandemic, feeling isolated, some young people were thinking outside the box and reached for the sky as they created an impressive work.(去年，由于新冠肺炎疫情，大多数人都被困在家里，感到被孤立，但一些年轻人打破了固有思维，创造了令人印象深刻的作品)”可知本文的主题是讲述一些年轻人有自己的想法，能打破固有思维，创造了令人印象深刻的作品，之后以林潇为例，讲述了他制造机器人的经过，所以本文的主旨是A项“A young man thinking uniquely.(一个有独特想法的年轻人)”。故选A项。

How to Handle an Argument with Your Family Members
We’ve all been there. A relaxed evening with our family members. A lot of laughing. And then, as if someone had sat on the TV remote and changed the channel, the mood shifts. No more warmth. Suddenly there’s shouting, a ping-pong of accusations(指责), deadly stares, and hostility(敌意) streaming from eyes like red laser pointers. Having a conflict with your family members is frustrating, and you may feel sad and depressed. _____16_____
Do remember that as much as it might feel this way, you’re not in a court of law with your family members. _____17_____ .It is to restore kindness and connection. Think of it this way —if somebody wins, both parties lose.
Do try to be an advocate of others’ feelings. ______18______ try to stand in the shoes of your family members. Try to understand their immature ways.
_____19_____ .This might frighten your family members, making them feel accused and in turn, act defensively. Example: “I was on the phone with my sister and then suddenly you started acting like crazy out of the blue.” Talk about the way you felt instead. Example: “I was on the phone with my sister and then I suddenly felt scared when I saw you looking at me like I was in trouble.”
Don’t try to explain yourself. You often want to explain yourself when having conflicts with your family members, but you don’t have time. You’re being cut off and attacked again. _____20_____ .The more you talk, the less your family members seem to understand and the further away you get from an agreement.
A. If you are looking for a new relationship

D. Rather than going in circles about what you think and how you feel

【答案】16. G 17. C 18. D 19. F 20. E
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。主要阐明探讨了如何处理与家人之间的争吵。作者提醒我们，在争吵中不要试图证明对方有错或赢得争论，而是要恢复友善和连接。他建议我们站在家人的角度上，试图理解他们的不成熟之处。此外，作者还提醒我们在争吵中不要简单陈述事实，而是表达自己的感受，以避免对方感到被指责。最重要的是，作者强调了在争吵中不要试图解释自己，而是要给予对方同情和理解。
【16题详解】
根据上文“Having a conflict with your family members is frustrating, and you may feel sad and depressed.”（与家人发生冲突是令人沮丧的，你可能会感到悲伤和沮丧。）引出话题，提到与家人争吵带来的负面影响。以及下文具体介绍了一些解决方法，由此可知，空格处内容应为一个适合作为导读的总结句，引导读者注意下文的建议和提示。结合选项G项Here are the do’s and don’ts when you are arguing with your family members.（当你和家人争吵时，以下是该做和不该做的事情。）符合此推断，起到上下文的承上启下作用，上下文语意连贯。故选G项。
【17题详解】
根据上文“Do remember that as much as it might feel this way, you’re not in a court of law with your family members.”（请记住，尽管你可能会有这种感觉，但你并不是和你的家人在法庭上。）讲的是和家人争吵并不是像在法庭上一样的争辩。以及下文“It is to restore kindness and connection.”（这是为了恢复善意和联系。）结合选项C项The point of an argument isn’t to prove the others guilty or to win.（争论的重点不是证明别人有罪或赢得胜利。）为对上文的语意递进，同时引起下文。起到上下文的承上启下作用，符合语境。故选C项。
【18题详解】
根据上文“Do try to be an advocate of others’ feelings.”（试着为别人的感受发声。）以及下文“try to stand in the shoes of your family members. Try to understand their immature ways.”（试着站在你家人的立场上。试着理解他们不成熟的方式。）可知，该段主要讲的是站在别人的立场上考虑问题。结合选项D项Rather than going in circles about what you think and how you feel.（而不是在你的想法和感觉上兜圈子。）和本段主旨意思一致，上下文语意连贯。故选D项。
【19题详解】
由该题为段落小标题可知，为总结该段内容。该段下文“This might frighten your family members, making them feel accused and in turn, act defensively. Example: “I was on the phone with my sister and then suddenly you started acting like crazy out of the blue.” Talk about the way you felt instead. Example: “I was on the phone with my sister and then I suddenly felt scared when I saw you looking at me like I was in trouble.””（这可能会吓到你的家人，让他们感到被指责，反过来，采取防御行动。例子：“我正在和我妹妹打电话，然后你突然变得像疯了一样。”谈谈你的感受。例子：“我正在和我妹妹打电话，然后我突然感到害怕，因为我看到你看着我，就像我有麻烦一样。”）可知，讲的是我们在争吵中不要简单陈述事实，而是表达自己的感受，以避免对方感到被指责。结合选项F项Don’t talk about what happened as though you’re simply stating the facts.（不要谈论发生了什么，好像你只是在陈述事实。）意思一致，为总结该段内容。故选F项。
【20题详解】
根据上文“You’re being cut off and attacked again.”（你又被切断了联系，又被攻击了。）说明试图为自己辩解带来的不好结果。以及下文“The more you talk, the less your family members seem to understand and the further away you get from an agreement.”（你说得越多，你的家人似乎越不理解，你离达成一致就越远。）同样也是讲的解释越多，反而效果不好。结合选项E项Each accusation strikes deeper and deeper into your sense of justice.（每一项指控都深深地刺痛了你的正义感。）可知，起到上下文的承上启下作用，上下文语意连贯。故选E项。

Hello everyone,
My topic today is “Should artificial intelligence robot be developed”
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Yours,
Li Hua
【答案】Hello everyone,
My topic today is “Should artificial intelligence robot be developed” I think we should encourage the development of robots. Robots are of great use in our life. They can save us a lot of hard work. As a result, human beings can enjoy far more leisure than they do now. It’s unnecessary to worry that the application of robots will get human beings lazy. On the contrary, it will arouse people’s interest in the re-search of artificial intelligence.
Since robots can’t think independently and they need instructions from human beings, they can never rule the world by making decisions of their own.

But someday, Laura knew, someday she would be big enough to stay by herself, or at least have a baby-sitter who wasn't so bossy.
One night, Laura's parents had a big surprise for her. Mrs. Thomas had gone to visit her sister in another city. Her parents had hired a brand-new Robo-Sitter! When the Robo-Sitter was delivered，Laura was amazed to discover that she looked just like a real person and even sounded like a real person. Her father programmed the Robo-Sitter to make dinner for Laura, give her three cookies, help her with her homework, and so on. And then he programmed the Robo-Sitter to clean the whole house. When he pressed "Enter" the Robo-Sitter's eyes opened brightly and a big smile appeared on her face.
When Laura's parents left the house, Laura reprogrammed the Robo-Sitter! The Robo-Sitter whizzed around the whole house, cleaning it from top to bottom in less than a minute. Then she raced into the kitchen and returned carrying three whole boxes of cookies, which she handed to Laura. Then she did all of Laura’s homework in nine seconds. Then she put Laura's favorite movie in the VCR and got out of the way. Laura sat down in front of the TV set with her box of cookies and pressed the "Off" button. And just like that, the Robo-Sitter went to sleep. Laura ate her cookies and watched her movie. But after a little while, her stomach started hurting and she wanted someone to talk to. She turned on the Robo-Sitter, who immediately cleaned the whole house all over again, brought Laura three more boxes of cookies, and did Laura's homework for a second time. Laura tried to reprogram the robo-Sitter, but was only able to make her do the same things faster and faster. Laura had no choice and finally turned off the Robo-Sitter.

【答案】The house was very quiet. For the first time in her whole entire life, Laura was all alone. And it made her feel really strange. She wanted someone to talk to; she wanted someone to play with. She picked up another cookie but her tummy hurt too much so she didn't even want to eat it. She sat very still in her father's favorite chair, watching her movie. But then she heard a loud creak from her bedroom. Maybe it was just a noise in the house, but in her mind it was a person. Oh, she wished Mrs. Thomas was there.
Two hours passed, but they seemed like two weeks. Finally, she heard her father's car driving into the garage. Just as her parents walked in, she turned on the Robo-Sitter who immediately cleaned the whole house again. " Did you have a nice time "" Laura's mother asked. Laura smiled. "It was very nice." she said softly, and then added, "but I think I like it better when Mrs. Thomas is here.”
【解析】
【分析】本篇书面表达是读后续写。通过阅读所给文章可知，以前劳拉的父母外出时会让邻居托马斯太太和她在一起，但因为托马斯太太会让劳拉遵守一些愚蠢的规定所以劳拉不喜欢她。劳拉一直恳求父母让她独自待家里父母不同意，直到有一次父母外出时托马斯太太也去另一个城市看她的姐姐了。这次劳拉的父亲雇了一个全新的机器人保姆来照顾她。父母外出后，她按照自己的意愿更改了机器人保姆的程序。
【详解】续写部分分为两段，第一段开头是：屋子里很安静。所以应该写劳拉感觉到孤独，而且因为吃多了饼干肚子也很疼痛，对比之下，劳拉开始想念托马斯太太。要详细描述劳拉感到孤独的过程。第二段开头是：两个小时过去了，但它们看起来像两个星期。本段应该写劳拉终于等到了父母回来，为了不让父亲发现又打开了机器人让其打扫房子，但这次，她向妈妈表达了与机器人相比，她更喜欢托马斯太太的陪伴。
【点睛】本文描写详略得当，使用了许多高级句子。如：She picked up another cookie but her tummy hurt too much so she didn't even want to eat it. 这句话使用了由so连接的结果状语从句；She sat very still in her father's favorite chair, watching her movie. 这句话使用了现在分词做状语；Just as her parents walked in, she turned on the Robo-Sitter who immediately cleaned the whole house again.这句话使用了由as引导的时间状语从句和由who引导的定语从句等。
