A
Knowing what to do at checkout and properly preparing for it can turn a potentially heated situation into a quick thank you add goodbye. Below we made a list of five things you should remember at hotel checkout.
Don’t be late to check
Hotels may add an extremely high price for being just a half hour late. If you know you won’t make the cutoff time, it never hurts to call ahead and try to negotiate away a potential charge.
Don’t forget to double cheek the room and safe
Make sure you don’t leave things behind. If you have an early flight or checkout time, pack up as much as you can the night before so that last-minute rush isn’t too annoying. Also, be sure to take out anything in the room safe.
Don’t forget to tip the housekeepers
It’s always polite to leave some money for the people keeping your room clean.
Don’t ignore the detailed bill
You may be in a rush, but give the detailed hill a careful look to see if the hotel charge is different from the rate you initially booked.
Don’t get angry
Shooting at the assistant manager standing behind the front desk probably won’t help.
When dealing with an unexpected item on the bill. Think about how difficult it can be to deal with annoyed customers. Keep calm and things may be solved better and sooner.
21. The hotel will charge you more money if you ________ .
A. check before cutoff time
B. do not call the hotel ahead
C. are late in checking out
D. negotiate with the clerks
22. Which of the following does the author suggest doing
A. Leaving something behind.
B. Being sure to keep the room clean.
C. Doing the pack-up as early as possible.
D. Tipping the housekeepers to show respect.
23. What is the purpose of the last paragraph of the passage
A. To suggest a way to solve problems properly.
B. To provide more information about the hotel.
C. To show the uneasiness of assistant managers.
D. To protect customers from unnecessary dangers.
【答案】21. C 22. D 23. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇应用文，列出了在酒店结账时你应该记住的五件事。
【21题详解】
细节理解题。根据Don’t be late to check部分中的“Hotels may add an extremely high price for being just a half hour late. If you know you won’t make the cutoff time, it never hurts to call ahead and try to negotiate away a potential charge.(酒店可能会因为迟到半小时而收取极高的费用。如果你知道自己无法按时完成，那么提前打电话，试着协商掉一笔潜在的费用也无妨)”可知酒店可能会因为迟到半小时而加价。即如果你退房晚了，酒店会多收你的钱。故选C。
【22题详解】
细节理解题。根据Don’t forget to tip the housekeepers部分中的“It’s always polite to leave some money for the people keeping your room clean.(给打扫房间的人留点钱总是礼貌的)”可知作者建议给清洁人员消费以示尊重。故选D。
【23题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“When dealing with an unexpected item on the bill. Think about how difficult it can be to deal with annoyed customers. Keep calm and things may be solved better and sooner.(在处理账单上的意外项目时。想想对付生气的顾客有多困难。保持冷静，事情可能会更好更快地解决)”可知作者认为当处理账单上的意外事项时，需要保持冷静，事情可能会更好更快地解决。故可推测最后一段的目的是提出一种正确解决问题的方法。故选A。
B
Math had never been something I was good at since middle school. Classes became harder in high school, and I was even further from a math teacher’s dream student. So at the start of my freshman year, I really loathed math. It wasn’t that I didn’t want to do well, but simply that I didn’t think I was able to do well. “I can’t” became my state of mind in all things about math.
However, I was soon to learn that “I can’t” was not a choice in Mr. A’s class.
Mr. A always greeted us with open arms as he said, “Welcome! Smile! It’s a great day to be alive!” It was clear that Mr. A had a true passion (热情) not only for math but for teaching. If Mr. A ever experienced bad days in life, he never showed it. Mr. A greeted us with that same smile every day. He encouraged each student, from the top achiever to the “T can’t” student.
I found myself looking forward to math class, although I still hated the subject itself. Being in Mr. A’s presence made me feel good, as if I had the chance to succeed. As the year progressed, I spent increasingly more time on my homework, and I met with Mr. A weekly. My classmates began to do the same, and it became “cool” to have lunch and talk with Mr. A. We didn’t know it at the time, but he was changing our attitudes.
Though my story is not one of overnight successes and I didn’t become a straight-A math student, my hard work did begin to pay off and my grades slowly began to climb. There were hard times, of course. Difficult math questions sometimes succeeded in bringing me down, but Mr. A kept reminding me, “Kate, smile! It’s a-great day to be alive!”
24. What does the underlined word “loathed” in paragraph 1 probably mean
A. Hated. B. Loved. C. Researched. D. Understood.
25. What do we know about Mr. A
A. He loved math and his job. B. He liked showing his sufferings.
C. He was very strict with the students. D. He preferred to encourage the top students.
26. How did the author like her talk over lunch with Mr. A
A. It was boring. B. It was awkward. C. It was challenging. D. It was meaningful.
27. What can we infer from the last two paragraphs
A. Kate made progress in math study. B. Kate gradually fell in love with math.
C. Kate was still afraid of math problems. D. Kate became a top student in math class.
【答案】24. A 25. A 26. D 27. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。作者不擅长数学，并且厌恶数学，但大一时A老师让作者改变了态度，于是成绩开始慢慢上升。
【24题详解】
词句猜测题。根据前文“Math had never been something I was good at since middle school. Classes became harder in high school, and I was even further from a math teacher’s dream student.(从中学开始，我就不擅长数学。高中的课程越来越难，我离数学老师理想中的学生更远了)”以及可知，作者不擅长数学而高中的课程越来越难，推知作者讨厌数学，所以loathed应是意为“厌恶”之意，和A项意思相近。故选A项。
【25题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“Mr. A always greeted us with open arms as he said, “Welcome! Smile! It’s a great day to be alive!” It was clear that Mr. A had a true passion (热情) not only for math but for teaching.(A先生总是张开双臂欢迎我们，他说：“欢迎!微笑!活着真是太棒了!”很明显，A先生不仅对数学很有热情，而且对教学也很有热情)”可知，A老师热爱数学和他的工作。故选A项。
【26题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“My classmates began to do the same, and it became “cool” to have lunch and talk with Mr. A. We didn’t know it at the time, but he was changing our attitudes.(我的同学们也开始这样做，和A老师一起吃午饭聊天变得很“酷”，我们当时并不知道，但他正在改变我们的态度)”可知，作者觉得她和A老师在午餐时的谈话很“酷”，A老师正在改变他们的态度，所以是有意义的。故选D项。
【27题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“Though my story is not one of overnight successes and I didn’t become a straight-A math student, my hard work did begin to pay off and my grades slowly began to climb.(虽然我的故事不是一夜成名的，我也没有成为数学全优的学生，但我的努力确实开始得到回报，我的成绩开始慢慢攀升)”可知，作者在数学学习上取得了进步。故选A项。
C
A pacer is someone who runs in races or marathons to help set the pace for runners. There are different types of pacers. A race pacer usually carries a sign highlighting a specific competition time for a race. He helps runners reach their goals without relying on technology, such as a smart watch or GPS. Professional pacers are used in long-distance races. They run at different sections of the race to inspire runners. A record pacer helps a professional runner set a new record, who often leads the race for a predetermined distance at a predetermined pace.
A runner being paced runs directly following a pacer. Having a pacer can be helpful for a long-distance runner because researches show that it takes more energy to lead in a race all through the race than to follow another runner. The pacer takes on the responsibility of timing and establishing the pace so the runner only has to focus on his own running. Having a pacer as a guide in a long race can take some of the stress and pressure off by keeping an even pace. The pacer may also provide encouragement along the way to work towards the goal.
There are times, though, when running with a pacer can be more stressful than beneficial for a runner — especially for amateur runners. Not having taken professional training, you set a goal to run a particular pace, but then you realize this may not be the best speed for you. In some cases, the pacer is running too quickly for what you can stand. Other times, you could misjudge your abilities and run a slower pace than what your body can bear.
It is important to note that you don’t have to stay with a pacer just because you started with him. If you feel strong at the end and want to finish faster, you can run ahead. Or if he is too fast, you could slow down and maybe even join the slower pace group behind you.
28. What does a record pacer do
A. He provides technical support.
B. He helps a runner keep the record.
C. He offers medical help to a runner.
D. He leads a professional runner at a speed set beforehand.
29. What does the underlined word “amateur” in Paragraph 3 probably mean
A. Injured. B. Legendary. C. Unprofessional. D. Graceful.
30. What advice does the author give us in the last paragraph
A. Changing pacers from time to time.
B. Following the pacer strictly all through the race.
C. Giving up something and preparing for a breakthrough.
D. Listening to your body and doing what feels right for you.
31. In which section of a website can the text be found
A. Sport and fitness. B. Science and technology.
C. History and culture. D. Health and lifestyle.
【答案】28. D 29. C 30. D 31. A
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文，文章主要介绍跑步比赛中的配速员。
【28题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中“A record pacer helps a professional runner set a new record, who often leads the race for a predetermined distance at a predetermined pace.(一个记录配速员帮助一个专业跑步者刷新记录，他经常以预定的速度领先比赛预定的距离)”可知，记录配速员在事先设定的速度下带领专业跑步者跑步，故选D。
【29题详解】
词义猜测题。根据划线词后的“Not having taken professional training, you set a goal to run a particular pace, but then you realize this may not be the best speed for you.(在没有接受专业训练的情况下，你设定了一个跑步速度的目标，但后来你意识到这可能不是你的最佳速度)”可知，此处是以业余运动员为例说明有时候和配速员一起跑步的缺点，所划线词所在句意为“然而，有时候，与配速员一起跑步对跑步者来说压力大于益处，尤其是对业余跑步者来说”，amateur意为“业余爱好的”，故选C。
【30题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“It is important to note that you don’t have to stay with a pacer just because you started with him. If you feel strong at the end and want to finish faster, you can run ahead. Or if he is too fast, you could slow down and maybe even join the slower pace group behind you.(重要的是要注意，你不必因为开始和他在一起就必须和他一致。如果你在最后感觉很强壮，想更快地完成比赛，你可以跑在前面。或者如果他太快了，你可以放慢速度，甚至加入你后面的慢速组)”可知，作者在本段建议听从自己身体的节奏，做自己觉得合适的事情。故选D。
【31题详解】
推理判断题。根据全文内容，结合第一段中“A pacer is someone who runs in races or marathons to help set the pace for runners. There are different types of pacers.(配速员是指在赛跑或马拉松比赛中帮助赛跑者设定速度的人)”可知，文章主要介绍跑步比赛中的配速员，应是出自网站的“运动和健康”部分，故选A。
D
If someone said they’d pay you $1,800 to stay off social media for six years, would you do it Could you Sivert Klefsaas did just that.
In 2016, Lorna Goldstrand Klefsaas challenged her 12-year-old son Sivert to stay off social media until he was 18. If he completed the challenge, she’d award him the cash on his eighteenth birthday. On February 19, 2022, Sivert claimed his prize.
Lorna once listened to a radio program called the “16 for 16”, where a mother gave her daughter $1,600 when she turned 16 if she stayed off social media. She decided to up the ante (提价) to two extra years and $200 more.
Sivert said it wasn’t too difficult to live without social media, and he didn’t think about it much during the six years. As a 12-year-old, Sivert said he wasn’t using social media much anyway. “I got to avoid all the unnecessary drama that was on there,” Sivert said. Lorna said she never had to check for any sneakily (偷偷地) downloaded apps. “He’s so competitive; it was definitely more for proving a point,” she said. “It also meant he had more time to focus on his grades and sports instead.”
After Sivert’s success, Lorna took to Facebook to share the challenge. She said it was some of the best money she ever spent. Other parents have seemed interested in trying it out too.
“We are certainly not against social media, but it’s the healthy using of it,” Lona noted. “It’s about not letting yourself get weighed down by (被……拖累) it, or addicted to it, or affected by things that people post.”
Sivert is the youngest of four children, and his three older sisters all used social media growing up. Lorna said there were times she felt her daughters “got too engrossed (沉迷的)” in their apps and feeds. “Social media was affecting their mood, their friendships and was kind of a depressant (镇静剂),” she said. When one of her daughters was 16, Lorna took away her phone because of it. Lorna says her daughter later thanked her for doing so, as it improved her mood.
32. How did Lorna get the idea of challenging her son to stay off social media
A. Her son was heavily addicted to the Internet.
B. She was inspired by a radio program.
C. Her son failed to focus on his grades.
D. Her son was affected by things that people posted.
33. Why did Lorna refuse to check for sneakily downloaded apps
A. Because her son had difficulty in using social media.
B. Because she was unwilling to affect her son’s mood.
C. Because she had confidence in her son.
D. Because her son had no interest in the latest trends.
34. What was the reaction of other parents to Lorna’s action
A. They thought it was worth promoting.
B. They tended to follow her example.
C. They expressed their disagreement with her.
D. They thought it was too challenging.
35. What does the last paragraph indicate
A Social media is a great way to establish friendships.
B. Social media helps young people improve their mood.
C. Lorna’s daughter benefits greatly from social media.
D. Social media has a negative influence on teenagers.
【答案】32. B 33. C 34. B 35. D
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇记叙文，文章讲述了母亲Lorna和儿子Sivert Klefsaas打赌，让儿子远离社交媒体的事情。
【32题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第三段“Lorna once listened to a radio program called the “16 for 16”, where a mother gave her daughter $1,600 when she turned 16 if she stayed off social media. She decided to up the ante (提价) to two extra years and $200 more.(洛娜曾经听过一个名为“16换16”的广播节目，在节目中，一位母亲在女儿16岁时给她1600美元，条件是她远离社交媒体。她决定把赌注提高到额外两年和额外200美元)”可知，洛娜受到一个广播节目的启而萌生了挑战儿子远离社交媒体的想法。故选B。
【33题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第四段“Sivert said. Lorna said she never had to check for any sneakily (偷偷地) downloaded apps. “He’s so competitive; it was definitely more for proving a point,” she said (Sivert说。洛娜说，她从来不用检查任何偷偷下载的应用程序。“他太好胜了；这绝对是为了证明一个观点，”她说)”可知，洛娜拒绝检查偷偷下载的应用程序因为她对儿子很有信心。故选C。
【34题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章倒数第三段“Other parents have seemed interested in trying it out too.(其他家长似乎也有兴趣尝试一下。)”可知，他们倾向于以她为榜样进行尝试。故选B。
【35题详解】

Lorna says her daughter later thanked her for doing so, as it improved her mood.(社交媒体影响了他们的情绪，影响了他们的友谊，就像一种镇静剂。”当她的一个女儿16岁时，洛娜因为这个问题拿走了她的手机。洛娜说，她的女儿后来感谢她这样做，因为这改善了她的情绪)”可知，社交媒体影响了孩子们的情绪，影响了他们的友谊，社交媒体对青少年有负面影响。故选D。

(尽可能多地利用它们，比如如果你是一个视觉学习者，可以在网站上观看在线教程。)”提到了利用某些东西，可知本句是在说明后文them指代的内容，故D选项“注意哪些学习技巧对你来说最有效的。”符合语境，空后的them指代D选项里的learning techniques。故选D。
【38题详解】

【40题详解】
本段主题是教授他人。根据上文“Conveying the information you absorb will help you process better. (传达你吸收的信息会帮助你更好地处理。)”提到教授你吸收的信息将有助于你更好地消化它，可知本句是在说明通过教学来学习，故B选项“约瑟夫·朱伯特曾经说过：‘教学就是学习两次。’”符合语境，另外空后“In teaching others how to learn things, you will find that you learn even more than the students. (在教别人如何学习的过程中，你会发现你学到的甚至比学生还多)。”进一步解释这个名言。故选B。

【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。文章报道了在第四届亚洲残奥会开幕式热身庆祝活动中，浙江省德清县的桑叶舞龙和安吉县的竹叶舞龙表演。
【56题详解】
考查副词。句意：来自浙江省德清县的桑叶龙和安吉县的竹叶龙在杭州奥体中心体育场表演舞龙，作为第四届亚残运会开幕式热身活动的一部分，令人印象深刻。提示词修饰动词showcased，用副词impressively作状语，意为“令人难忘地”。故填impressively。
【57题详解】
考查冠词。句意：作为浙江的文化遗产，桑叶龙已经成为当地民俗文化的重要代表。可数名词heritage在句中表示“一种文化遗产”，泛指，cultural发音以辅音音素开头，用不定冠词a修饰。故填a。
【58题详解】
考查动词时态语态。句意：村委会副书记唐永明解释说，这条龙长22米，共有11个部分。分析句子可知，explain(解释)是句中谓语动词，与主语Tang Yongming之间是主动关系，结合语境可知，讲述过去的事情，应使用一般过去时态。故填explained。

【61题详解】
考查定语从句。句意：16名队员都是当地村民，从小就开始学习舞龙。分析句子可知，空格处单词引导限制性定语从句，修饰先行词villagers，关系词代替先行词在定语从句中作主语，应使用关系代词who或者that引导该从句。故填who/that。
【62题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：安吉县推出的“龙腾竹海”项目也是省级非物质文化遗产之一。分析句子可知，“(present) by Anji county”作后置定语，present(展示，推出)是非谓语动词，与其逻辑主语The program之间是被动关系，用过去分词表示被动。故填presented。
【63题详解】
考查介词。句意：该县残疾人联合会艺术团的35名残疾人参加了演出。根据句意，用介词短语with disabilities作后置定语修饰名词performers，with意为“有”。故填with。

67. 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。
A big gathering of friends sat around our living room making music. “Get up there, Roberty Bob!” my mum Mary encouraged me. It was 1996, and aged five, I’d recently started Irish dance lessons with my two older sisters. I showed off some of the steps I’d learned in a shy and nervous way as the friends cheered.
We lived on an apple orchard (苹果园) in the Huon Valley, which had been in my dad’s family for generations. Mum had left her own family’s farm in Ireland after she met my father, Robert, while he was travelling around Europe. She vowed to never forget the culture of her homeland.
On nights like this one, friends and family would gather for a jam session (即兴演奏会). Many would bring instruments—tin whistles, Celtic drums, piano accordions — and produce a noisy Irish symphony (交响乐). Music was as much a part of my childhood as the country air I breathed.
When I turned 14, my parents gave me a guitar, and I began to suspect life would take me far beyond the bush. After school, I got into the Western Australian Academy of Performing Arts (WAAPA) which led to a career in musical theatre. I had a ball performing in shows across Australia, like Disney’s Aladdin and The Rocky Horror Picture Show. During this period, I met a beautiful actress named Chloé Zuel and in 2019 we married. After COVID, I found it hard to get back to the former routine. Then, in April this year, I was sent an audition (试音) notice for a new musical about Elvis Presley set to tour Australia. We grew up with Irish and classical music, I thought. I knew nothing about Elvis. I figured they’d give the role to some Elvis fan and resolved to audition for smaller parts. Chloé disagreed and encouraged me to go for it though she was pregnant and needed company.
注意：1.续写词数应为150左右;
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Amazingly, a few weeks later I learned that out of 700 applicants, I’d got the lead.

________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】参考范文
Amazingly, a few weeks later I learned that out of 700 applicants, I’d got the lead. I had three months to learn how to sing and dance like Elvis! Making my knees and hips move like him in the 1950s was strange. I feel like a baby giraffe. However, practising hard was my primary task. Many late nights were spent singing along to his songs, glass of whisky in hand, trying to capture Presley’s iconic tone. When the final show was approaching, I felt eager but equally nervous.
In the final show, Elvis sang Can’t Help Falling in Love to his new baby, and so did I. His action was really impressive while I was not sure about mine. Moving every step as we had practised, I tried my best to devote myself to the show. Suddenly, I caught sight of Chloé, with her hands touching her belly. Then I could understand Elvis’ emotion, the kind from a new father. After the show, I embraced my wife and my mum, the two women who encouraged me to perform and the two mothers who presented me with responsibility.

【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了作者小时候因为家人的影响开始喜欢上音乐和舞蹈，后来进入了西澳大利亚表演艺术学院，由此开始了自己的音乐剧生涯。在冠状病毒感染后，作者发现很难回到以前。然后，在今年4月，作者收到了一个试镜的通知，一部关于猫王的新音乐剧将在澳大利亚巡演，但是作者认为自己是在爱尔兰和古典音乐中长大的，而且对猫王一无所知，所以想他们会把这个角色给一些猫王的粉丝，并决定试镜一些更小的角色，但是作为演员的妻子克洛伊鼓励作者去做。最终经过一系列的努力以及妻子和母亲的鼓励试镜获得成功，作者对妻子和母亲表示感激。
【详解】1.段落续写：
①由第一段首句内容“令人惊讶的是，几周后我得知，在700名申请者中，我脱颖而出。”可知第一段可描写我是如何像猫王一样去练习唱歌和跳舞的，以及随着演出的临近我的紧张和渴望。
②由第二段首句内容“在最后一场演出中，猫王为他的新生儿演唱了《情不自禁坠入爱河》，我也唱了。”可知第二段可描写在演出一开始时我的动作很刻板，直到我看到妻子触摸腹部的动作才真正理解了猫王作为一位新生儿父亲的情感，视镜很成功，我感激母亲和妻子。
2.续写线索：取得领先——不断练习——视镜之前的紧张和期盼——演出现场我的刻意表现——看见妻子触摸腹部——理解猫王的情感——试镜成功——感谢母亲和妻子

阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中选出最佳选项。并在答题卡上将该选项涂黑。
A
Knowing what to do at checkout and properly preparing for it can turn a potentially heated situation into a quick thank you add goodbye. Below we made a list of five things you should remember at hotel checkout.
Don’t be late to check
Hotels may add an extremely high price for being just a half hour late. If you know you won’t make the cutoff time, it never hurts to call ahead and try to negotiate away a potential charge.
Don’t forget to double cheek the room and safe
Make sure you don’t leave things behind. If you have an early flight or checkout time pack up as much as you can the night before so that last-minute rush isn’t too annoying. Also, be sure to take out anything in the room safe.
Don’t forget to tip the housekeepers
It’s always polite to leave some money for the people keeping your room clean
Don’t ignore the detailed bill
You may be in a rush, but give the detailed hill a careful look to see if the hotel charge is different from the rate you initially booked.
Don’t get angry
Shooting at the assistant manager standing behind the front desk probably won’t help.
When dealing with an unexpected item on the bill. Think about how difficult it can be to deal with annoyed customers. Keep calm and things may be solved better and sooner.
21. The hotel will charge you more money if you ________ .
A. check before cutoff time
B. do not call the hotel ahead
C. are late in checking out
D. negotiate with the clerks
22. Which of the following does the author suggest doing
A. Leaving something behind.
B Being sure to keep the room clean.
C. Doing the pack-up as early as possible.
D. Tipping the housekeepers to show respect.
23. What is the purpose of the last paragraph of the passage
A. To suggest a way to solve problems properly.
B. To provide more information about the hotel.
C. To show the uneasiness of assistant managers.

Math had never been something I was good at since middle school. Classes became harder in high school, and I was even further from a math teacher’s dream student. So at the start of my freshman year, I really loathed math. It wasn’t that I didn’t want to do well, but simply that I didn’t think I was able to do well. “I can’t” became my state of mind in all things about math.
However, I was soon to learn that “I can’t” was not a choice in Mr. A’s class.
Mr. A always greeted us with open arms as he said, “Welcome! Smile! It’s a great day to be alive!” It was clear that Mr. A had a true passion (热情) not only for math but for teaching. If Mr. A ever experienced bad days in life, he never showed it. Mr. A greeted us with that same smile every day. He encouraged each student, from the top achiever to the “T can’t” student.
I found myself looking forward to math class, although I still hated the subject itself. Being in Mr. A’s presence made me feel good, as if I had the chance to succeed. As the year progressed, I spent increasingly more time on my homework, and I met with Mr. A weekly. My classmates began to do the same, and it became “cool” to have lunch and talk with Mr. A. We didn’t know it at the time, but he was changing our attitudes.
Though my story is not one of overnight successes and I didn’t become a straight-A math student, my hard work did begin to pay off and my grades slowly began to climb. There were hard times, of course. Difficult math questions sometimes succeeded in bringing me down, but Mr. A kept reminding me, “Kate, smile! It’s a-great day to be alive!”
24. What does the underlined word “loathed” in paragraph 1 probably mean
A. Hated. B. Loved. C. Researched. D. Understood.
25. What do we know about Mr. A
A. He loved math and his job. B. He liked showing his sufferings.
C. He was very strict with the students. D. He preferred to encourage the top students.
26. How did the author like her talk over lunch with Mr. A
A. It was boring. B. It was awkward. C. It was challenging. D. It was meaningful.
27. What can we infer from the last two paragraphs

A pacer is someone who runs in races or marathons to help set the pace for runners. There are different types of pacers. A race pacer usually carries a sign highlighting a specific competition time for a race. He helps runners reach their goals without relying on technology, such as a smart watch or GPS. Professional pacers are used in long-distance races. They run at different sections of the race to inspire runners. A record pacer helps a professional runner set a new record, who often leads the race for a predetermined distance at a predetermined pace.
A runner being paced runs directly following a pacer. Having a pacer can be helpful for a long-distance runner because researches show that it takes more energy to lead in a race all through the race than to follow another runner. The pacer takes on the responsibility of timing and establishing the pace so the runner only has to focus on his own running. Having a pacer as a guide in a long race can take some of the stress and pressure off by keeping an even pace. The pacer may also provide encouragement along the way to work towards the goal.
There are times, though, when running with a pacer can be more stressful than beneficial for a runner — especially for amateur runners. Not having taken professional training, you set a goal to run a particular pace, but then you realize this may not be the best speed for you. In some cases, the pacer is running too quickly for what you can stand. Other times, you could misjudge your abilities and run a slower pace than what your body can bear.
It is important to note that you don’t have to stay with a pacer just because you started with him. If you feel strong at the end and want to finish faster, you can run ahead. Or if he is too fast, you could slow down and maybe even join the slower pace group behind you.
28. What does a record pacer do
A. He provides technical support.
B. He helps a runner keep the record.
C. He offers medical help to a runner.
D. He leads a professional runner at a speed set beforehand.
29. What does the underlined word “amateur” in Paragraph 3 probably mean
A. Injured. B. Legendary. C. Unprofessional. D. Graceful.
30. What advice does the author give us in the last paragraph
A. Changing pacers from time to time.
B. Following the pacer strictly all through the race.
C. Giving up something and preparing for a breakthrough.
D. Listening to your body and doing what feels right for you.
31. In which section of a website can the text be found
A. Sport and fitness. B. Science and technology.
C. History and culture. D. Health and lifestyle.

If someone said they’d pay you $1,800 to stay off social media for six years, would you do it Could you Sivert Klefsaas did just that.
In 2016, Lorna Goldstrand Klefsaas challenged her 12-year-old son Sivert to stay off social media until he was 18. If he completed the challenge, she’d award him the cash on his eighteenth birthday. On February 19, 2022, Sivert claimed his prize.
Lorna once listened to a radio program called the “16 for 16”, where a mother gave her daughter $1,600 when she turned 16 if she stayed off social media. She decided to up the ante (提价) to two extra years and $200 more.
Sivert said it wasn’t too difficult to live without social media, and he didn’t think about it much during the six years. As a 12-year-old, Sivert said he wasn’t using social media much anyway. “I got to avoid all the unnecessary drama that was on there,” Sivert said. Lorna said she never had to check for any sneakily (偷偷地) downloaded apps. “He’s so competitive; it was definitely more for proving a point,” she said. “It also meant he had more time to focus on his grades and sports instead.”
After Sivert’s success, Lorna took to Facebook to share the challenge. She said it was some of the best money she ever spent. Other parents have seemed interested in trying it out too.
“We are certainly not against social media, but it’s the healthy using of it,” Lona noted. “It’s about not letting yourself get weighed down by (被……拖累) it, or addicted to it, or affected by things that people post.”
Sivert is the youngest of four children, and his three older sisters all used social media growing up. Lorna said there were times she felt her daughters “got too engrossed (沉迷的)” in their apps and feeds. “Social media was affecting their mood, their friendships and was kind of a depressant (镇静剂),” she said. When one of her daughters was 16, Lorna took away her phone because of it. Lorna says her daughter later thanked her for doing so, as it improved her mood.
32. How did Lorna get the idea of challenging her son to stay off social media
A. Her son was heavily addicted to the Internet.
B. She was inspired by a radio program.
C. Her son failed to focus on his grades.
D. Her son was affected by things that people posted.
33. Why did Lorna refuse to check for sneakily downloaded apps
A. Because her son had difficulty in using social media.
B. Because she was unwilling to affect her son’s mood.
C. Because she had confidence in her son.
D. Because her son had no interest in the latest trends.
34. What was the reaction of other parents to Lorna’s action
A. They thought it was worth promoting.
B. They tended to follow her example.
C. They expressed their disagreement with her.
D They thought it was too challenging.
35. What does the last paragraph indicate
A. Social media is a great way to establish friendships.
B. Social media helps young people improve their mood.
C. Lorna’s daughter benefits greatly from social media.
D. Social media has a negative influence on teenagers.

67. 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整短文。
A big gathering of friends sat around our living room making music. “Get up there, Roberty Bob!” my mum Mary encouraged me. It was 1996, and aged five, I’d recently started Irish dance lessons with my two older sisters. I showed off some of the steps I’d learned in a shy and nervous way as the friends cheered.
We lived on an apple orchard (苹果园) in the Huon Valley, which had been in my dad’s family for generations. Mum had left her own family’s farm in Ireland after she met my father, Robert, while he was travelling around Europe. She vowed to never forget the culture of her homeland.
On nights like this one, friends and family would gather for a jam session (即兴演奏会). Many would bring instruments—tin whistles, Celtic drums, piano accordions — and produce a noisy Irish symphony (交响乐). Music was as much a part of my childhood as the country air I breathed.
When I turned 14, my parents gave me a guitar, and I began to suspect life would take me far beyond the bush. After school, I got into the Western Australian Academy of Performing Arts (WAAPA) which led to a career in musical theatre. I had a ball performing in shows across Australia, like Disney’s Aladdin and The Rocky Horror Picture Show. During this period, I met a beautiful actress named Chloé Zuel and in 2019 we married. After COVID, I found it hard to get back to the former routine. Then, in April this year, I was sent an audition (试音) notice for a new musical about Elvis Presley set to tour Australia. We grew up with Irish and classical music, I thought. I knew nothing about Elvis. I figured they’d give the role to some Elvis fan and resolved to audition for smaller parts. Chloé disagreed and encouraged me to go for it though she was pregnant and needed company.
注意：1.续写词数应为150左右;
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Amazingly, a few weeks later I learned that out of 700 applicants, I’d got the lead.

In the finally show, Elvis sang Can’t Help Falling in Love to his new baby, and so did I.
