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
A British sleep expert, professor Chris Idzikowski, did a research showing that there was some connection between the way people sleep and their personality.
The fetal position
The fetal position gets its name from the shape of a baby in the mother's stomach. It is the most common position in the world. People who sleep in the fetal position tend towards worry and anxiety. They are often shy and sensitive. In the fetal position, a sleeper's body is like a ball as he lies on one side with legs and arms bent. Adults usually sleep in this position.
The starfish position
When sleeping like a starfish, you lie on your back with arms up near the pillow. Sleep scientist Idzikowski says starfish sleepers value friendship. People who sleep in this position are good listeners and quick to help others. If you have a starfish sleeper as a best friend, you’re in luck. Starfish sleepers are great listeners and a source of comfort to others.
The freefall position
In the freefall position, sleepers have their hands on or around their pillows, with their heads turned to one side. Freefall sleepers are social but sensitive and can become upset by extreme situations. They like to be in control of everything around their life. It's all part of their long periods of indecision, but once they make a choice, they stick to it. This position can aid in digestion (消化).
The log position
For those who suffer from back pain, the log position could be helpful for you. Log sleepers have both their arms and legs extended, so their bodies are straight like a log. Log sleepers are very trusting, but are usually social and easy-going individuals. Idzikowski claims that preferring a log position suggests that a person is sociable and can communicate with others easily.
1. What's the personality of people sleeping in fetal position

2. Which of the following is most suitable to be a friend
A. A fetal sleeper. B. A starfish sleeper. C. A freefall sleeper. D. A log sleeper.
3. What can we know about log sleepers

C. They are easy to get along with. D. They have difficulty making decisions.

The world will become a better place when we realize that everyone can have bad days and that we care enough and take actions. A Kansas fourth-grade teacher Rachel Harder recognized this, and she found an amazing way to help out both her students and their families.
A few years ago, Rachel attended a trauma (精神创伤) conference. She learned that some police stations partnered with schools. They could let teachers know when their students need help, patience or extra care.
A year after the conference, Rachel had a student with autism who frequently had difficult days. To support the student, Rachel told the student’s mom to simply text her “Handle with Care” to let her know when the student was experiencing difficult time. “When she would text me, I knew that her daughter needed some extra time and a quiet place to get help, not going to the playground for morning announcements (通告), so that the rest of her daughter’s day went well,” Rachel said.
The simple method was such a success that Rachel decided to send all of her students home with a note for their parents. It explained what the “Handle with Care” system was and how they could make use of it. In no time, the parents began to show their appreciation for Rachel’s unbelievable act of kindness.
But Rachel’s kindness didn’t end with her class. News spread of the amazing system, and teachers across the country began giving it a shot in their own class. Printed materials could be found on the school website, and the feedback (反馈) has been extremely positive!
4. What happened to Rachel a few years ago
A. She met with a policeman.
B. She noticed some students in need.
C. She acted as a host at a contest.
D. She raised a girl with autism.
5. What can we imagine Rachel probably did to the girl student
A. She asked to stop the morning announcements.
B. She talked with her in the playground.
C. She took her home ahead of time.
D. She comforted her at a quiet place.
6. How did the parents treat Rachel’s system
A. They paid no attention to it.
B. They changed it in daily use.
C. They accepted it thankfully.
D. They introduced it to others personally.
7. What is the text mainly about
A. A proper system.
B. A considerate teacher.
C. A story going online.
D. A class influencing the nation.
C
The characteristic (特征) of shyness is to feel frightened and nervous in new social situations or when being the center of attention. Whether shyness is part of your children’s personality or just something they feel when they are in front of a group of strangers, it is a common experience, according to a study.
To look at shyness, researchers brought 152 children aged 7-8 into a lab and told them they would give a speech, which would be filmed and shown to other children. The study showed that about 10% of the children showed a level of stress over time when giving the speech. About 25% of the children were not reported to be shy in the eyes of their parents, but in fact showed a level of social stress from giving the speech. This finding provides the fact that shyness may be a part of these children’s temperament (性情).
For children at this age, shyness may be a quite common and normal experience when they face a speech task. For a smaller group of shy children, however, being the center of attention may be stressful at different times and environments.
A shy temperament isn’t always valued by society like an outgoing personality, but that doesn’t mean there is something wrong. Everyone can feel shy at times depending on the environment. And those who are particularly shy often have happy social lives—they just aren’t likely to be the liveliest people in a crowded room.
Although shyness itself may not necessarily be a problem, parents should pay attention to signs of worry, particularly in their shy children. Importantly, however, we know that not all shy children are the same, and that many shy children grow up to be well-balanced adults.
8. What can we learn from paragraph 1
A. Shyness is not an unusual characteristic.
B. Shyness is born with personality.
C. Shyness will appear when one is in public.
D. Shyness means not communicating with others.
9. What is the finding of the study
A. Few kids like to give a speech to others.
B. Some kids can get shy while giving speeches.
C. Some kids appear less shy with their parents.
D. Some kids are stressed when being separated.
10. What does the author advise parents to do when facing shy children
A. Bring them to crowded space.
B. Care for them and give them confidence.
C. Keep them away from shyness.
D. Let them be alone.
11. What can be the best title for the text
A. When are people shy B. Ways of beating shyness
C. Why is shyness a bad thing D. The discoveries about shyness
D
Humans are not the animal world’s only fashion followers. Tits (山雀) can be one of them, too. A study by Sonja Wild and Lucy Aplin shows that, given the chance, they make their nests (巢穴) with this season’s must-have color.
Dr. Wild and Dr. Aplin followed up on a study which noted that the blue tits preferred to put the same plants into their nests. This also suggested fashion-following—and it led Dr. Wild and Dr. Aplin to imagine that birds were studying the nests of others and copying them.
The birds they followed carried instruments on them. That allowed researchers to follow a large number of tits by their arrival at food dispensers (自动取物装置) throughout the woods.
One day in March 2021, Dr. Wild and Dr. Aplin used five dispensers with wool rather than food. Each contained two colors—either orange and pink or blue and purple—but all were rigged to give only one of these. This remained so until at least one local nest was seen to include wool from a dispenser. At that moment, the other color was discovered, too. As a comparison, Dr. Wild and Dr. Aplin set up four wool dispensers in a separate area, each providing two colors from the beginning.
Of 68 tits’ nests, 26 included wool from a dispenser. Of these, 18 were built after both colors had been gotten from all dispensers. Even so, 10 of that 18 included only the color of wool first chosen by a nest makers. By contrast (相比之下), all 8 nests with wool have mixed colors, which showed a clear difference in the record.
Tits, then, do seem to be “in fashion” when it comes to nest-building materials. Tits like those of the leaders of human fashions and it is worth more deep research.
12. Why are the same plants put into nests by the tits
A. They want to beautify their nests.
B. They find no other plants.
C. They are used to doing this.
D. They want to keep warm.
13. What does the underlined word “rigged” in paragraph 4 mean
A. Refused. B. Warned. C. Forced. D. Arranged.
14. What method is mainly used in the experiment
A. Testing colors. B. Observing activities.
C. Comparing results. D. Checking numbers.
15. What is the author’s attitude to the research
A. Disappointed. B. Supportive
C. Doubtful. D. Unclear.

A MOTHER’S DAY SURPRISE
The twins were filled with excitement as they thought of the surprise they were planning for Mother’s Day. How pleased and proud Mother would be when they brought her breakfast in bed. They planned to make French toast and chicken porridge. They had watched their mother in the kitchen. There was nothing to it. Jenna and Jeff knew exactly what to do.
The big day came at last. The alarm rang at 6 a.m. The pair went down the stairs quietly to the kitchen. They decided to boil the porridge first. They put some rice into a pot of water and left it to boil while they made the French toast. Jeff broke two eggs into a plate and added in some milk. Jenna found the bread and put two slices into the egg mixture. Next, Jeff turned on the second stove burner to heat up the frying pan. Everything was going smoothly until Jeff started frying the bread. The pan was too hot and the bread turned black within seconds. Jenna threw the burnt piece into the sink and put in the other slice of bread. This time, she turned down the fire so it cooked nicely.
Then Jeff noticed steam shooting out of the pot and the lid starting to shake. The next minute, the porridge boiled over and put out the fire. Jenna panicked. Thankfully, Jeff stayed calm and turned off the gas quickly. But then she caught the smell of burning. Oh dear! The piece of bread in the pan had turned black as well.
As the twins looked around them in disappointment their father appeared. Seeing the black bread and the spilled porridge, Dad suddenly figured out their secret. A smile of understanding flashed across his face. Without a second thought, Dad offered to help. A ripple of excitement ran through them. They helped clean the kitchen while their father cooked a sandwich and some porridge skillfully. Soon, the delicious smell of breakfast filled the kitchen. Dad hinted to show that it was a secret and went back to the bedroom, asking the twins to go on to carry out their great plan.
注意: 1. 所续写短文的词数应为80左右;2. 段首句已为你写好。
The twins carried the breakfast upstairs and woke their mother up.

The characteristic (特征) of shyness is to feel frightened and nervous in new social situations or when being the center of attention. Whether shyness is part of your children’s personality or just something they feel when they are in front of a group of strangers, it is a common experience, according to a study.
To look at shyness, researchers brought 152 children aged 7-8 into a lab and told them they would give a speech, which would be filmed and shown to other children. The study showed that about 10% of the children showed a level of stress over time when giving the speech. About 25% of the children were not reported to be shy in the eyes of their parents, but in fact showed a level of social stress from giving the speech. This finding provides the fact that shyness may be a part of these children’s temperament (性情).
For children at this age, shyness may be a quite common and normal experience when they face a speech task. For a smaller group of shy children, however, being the center of attention may be stressful at different times and environments.
A shy temperament isn’t always valued by society like an outgoing personality, but that doesn’t mean there is something wrong. Everyone can feel shy at times depending on the environment. And those who are particularly shy often have happy social lives—they just aren’t likely to be the liveliest people in a crowded room.
Although shyness itself may not necessarily be a problem, parents should pay attention to signs of worry, particularly in their shy children. Importantly, however, we know that not all shy children are the same, and that many shy children grow up to be well-balanced adults.
8. What can we learn from paragraph 1
A. Shyness is not an unusual characteristic.
B. Shyness is born with personality.
C. Shyness will appear when one is in public.
D. Shyness means not communicating with others.
9. What is the finding of the study
A. Few kids like to give a speech to others.
B. Some kids can get shy while giving speeches.
C. Some kids appear less shy with their parents.
D. Some kids are stressed when being separated.
10. What does the author advise parents to do when facing shy children
A. Bring them to crowded space.
B Care for them and give them confidence.
C. Keep them away from shyness.
D. Let them be alone.
11. What can be the best title for the text
A. When are people shy B. Ways of beating shyness
C. Why is shyness a bad thing D. The discoveries about shyness
【答案】8. A 9. B 10. B 11. D

Humans are not the animal world’s only fashion followers. Tits (山雀) can be one of them, too. A study by Sonja Wild and Lucy Aplin shows that, given the chance, they make their nests (巢穴) with this season’s must-have color.
Dr. Wild and Dr. Aplin followed up on a study which noted that the blue tits preferred to put the same plants into their nests. This also suggested fashion-following—and it led Dr. Wild and Dr. Aplin to imagine that birds were studying the nests of others and copying them.
The birds they followed carried instruments on them. That allowed researchers to follow a large number of tits by their arrival at food dispensers (自动取物装置) throughout the woods.
One day in March 2021, Dr. Wild and Dr. Aplin used five dispensers with wool rather than food. Each contained two colors—either orange and pink or blue and purple—but all were rigged to give only one of these. This remained so until at least one local nest was seen to include wool from a dispenser. At that moment, the other color was discovered, too. As a comparison, Dr. Wild and Dr. Aplin set up four wool dispensers in a separate area, each providing two colors from the beginning.
Of 68 tits’ nests, 26 included wool from a dispenser. Of these, 18 were built after both colors had been gotten from all dispensers. Even so, 10 of that 18 included only the color of wool first chosen by a nest makers. By contrast (相比之下), all 8 nests with wool have mixed colors, which showed a clear difference in the record.
Tits, then, do seem to be “in fashion” when it comes to nest-building materials. Tits like those of the leaders of human fashions and it is worth more deep research.
12. Why are the same plants put into nests by the tits
A. They want to beautify their nests.
B. They find no other plants.
C. They are used to doing this.
D. They want to keep warm.
13. What does the underlined word “rigged” in paragraph 4 mean
A. Refused. B. Warned. C. Forced. D. Arranged.
14. What method is mainly used in the experiment
A. Testing colors. B. Observing activities.
C. Comparing results. D. Checking numbers.
15. What is the author’s attitude to the research
A. Disappointed. B. Supportive
C. Doubtful. D. Unclear.
【答案】12. A 13. D 14. C 15. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。人类并不是动物界唯一的时尚达人。研究表明,山雀也像人类一样追随潮流,用流行色装点巢穴。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“山雀Humans are not the animal world’s only fashion followers. Tits () can be one of them, too.(人类并不是动物世界中唯一的时尚追随者。山雀也可能是其中之一)”以及第二段“Dr. Wild and Dr. Aplin followed up on a study which noted that the blue tits preferred to put the same plants into their nests. This also suggested fashion-following — and it led Dr. Wild and Dr. Aplin to imagine that birds were studying the nests of others and copying them.(怀尔德博士和阿普林博士跟进了一项研究,该研究指出,蓝山雀更喜欢把同样的植物放进它们的巢穴。这也表明了时尚追随——这让怀尔德博士和阿普林博士想象鸟类正在研究其他鸟类的巢穴并模仿它们)”可知,同样的植物会被山雀放进巢里是因为它们想要美化它们的巢穴。故选A项。
【13题详解】
词句猜测题。根据后文“As a comparison, Dr. Wild and Dr. Aplin set up four wool dispensers in a separate area, each providing two colors from the beginning.(作为对比,怀尔德博士和阿普林博士在一个单独的区域设置了四个羊毛分配器,每个分配器从一开始就提供两种颜色)”可知,作为对比每个分配器被设置成提供两种颜色,所以前文提到的应是被设置成只能给出其中一种颜色。由此推知,rigged是“设置,安排”之意,和D项意思相近。故选D项。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“Of 68 tits’ nests, 26 included wool from a dispenser. Of these, 18 were built after both colors had been gotten from all dispensers. Even so, 10 of that 18 included only the color of wool first chosen by a nest makers. By contrast (相比之下), all 8 nests with wool have mixed colors, which showed a clear difference in the record.(在68个山雀的巢中,有26个包括来自分配器的羊毛。其中,18是在从所有分配器获得两种颜色后建造的。即便如此,在这18只羊毛中,有10只包含了造巢者首先选择的羊毛颜色。相比之下,所有8个有羊毛的巢都是混合的颜色,这在记录中显示出明显的差异)”可推知,实验中主要采用比较实验结果的方法分析实验数据。故选C项。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“Tits, then, do seem to be “in fashion” when it comes to nest-building materials. Tits like those of the leaders of human fashions and it is worth more deep research.(因此,当谈到筑巢材料时,山雀似乎确实很“时髦”。与人类时尚领袖的头衔相似,值得更深入的研究)”可知,作者觉得更深入的研究。由此推知,他支持这项研究。故选B项。

考查冠词。句意:茶馆融合了不同的文化。分析句子结构,a mix of为固定短语,含义为“……的混合”,符合句意,故填a。
【42题详解】
考查副词。句意:它也显示了高度文明的中国文化的开放性和宽容性。分析句子结构,空白处在句子中作状语修饰civilized ,使用副词,故填highly。
【43题详解】
考查形容词。句意:关于茶文化,我们可以看到中国文化的发展是丰富多彩和宽容的。分析句子结构,这是一个包含宾语从句的复合句,空白处在从句中作表语使用形容词与tolerant并列,故填colorful。
【44题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:除了茶具和绘画之外,还展出了清代各地制作的数十块大小不同、形状各异的茶砖。分析句子结构,空白处在句子中作定语使用非谓语动词,因与其逻辑主语tea bricks之间为逻辑上的动宾关系,使用过去分词,故填made。
【45题详解】
考查连词。句意:人们可以坐在现代茶馆里,品尝不同种类的树叶,最后喝一杯。根据上文“sit in a modern teahouse(坐在现代茶馆里)”、“examine different kinds of leaves(品尝不同种类的树叶)”以及下文“have a cup(喝一杯)”可知本句为三个动作形成的并列结构,三个动词使用并列连词连接,故填and。

A MOTHER’S DAY SURPRISE
The twins were filled with excitement as they thought of the surprise they were planning for Mother’s Day. How pleased and proud Mother would be when they brought her breakfast in bed. They planned to make French toast and chicken porridge. They had watched their mother in the kitchen. There was nothing to it. Jenna and Jeff knew exactly what to do.
The big day came at last. The alarm rang at 6 a.m. The pair went down the stairs quietly to the kitchen. They decided to boil the porridge first. They put some rice into a pot of water and left it to boil while they made the French toast. Jeff broke two eggs into a plate and added in some milk. Jenna found the bread and put two slices into the egg mixture. Next, Jeff turned on the second stove burner to heat up the frying pan. Everything was going smoothly until Jeff started frying the bread. The pan was too hot and the bread turned black within seconds. Jenna threw the burnt piece into the sink and put in the other slice of bread. This time, she turned down the fire so it cooked nicely.
Then Jeff noticed steam shooting out of the pot and the lid starting to shake. The next minute, the porridge boiled over and put out the fire. Jenna panicked. Thankfully, Jeff stayed calm and turned off the gas quickly. But then she caught the smell of burning. Oh dear! The piece of bread in the pan had turned black as well.
As the twins looked around them in disappointment, their father appeared. Seeing the black bread and the spilled porridge, Dad suddenly figured out their secret. A smile of understanding flashed across his face. Without a second thought, Dad offered to help. A ripple of excitement ran through them. They helped clean the kitchen while their father cooked a sandwich and some porridge skillfully. Soon, the delicious smell of breakfast filled the kitchen. Dad hinted to show that it was a secret and went back to the bedroom, asking the twins to go on to carry out their great plan.
