Two decades ago, Tropical Storm Allison hit Houston. More than 70,000 houses were flooded, including the home of Sarah Feldman and her family.
At the time, they were in Connecticut on vacation, so they didn’t know what kind of damage they were going to face when they got home to Texas. But then Feldman’s grandparents called with bad news: all of her books had been destroyed in the flooding. Feldman was 14 at the time and loved reading.
To cheer her up, Feldman’s father took her to the Beinecke Rare Book & Manuscript Library at Yale University. When they arrived, she started a conversation with Bill Carver, a man who worked at the library.
“I asked him a bunch of questions like, ‘How do you keep all these rare books What’s the oldest book you have ’” Feldman remembered. Carver answered all of Feldman’s questions. When she told him about her books being destroyed, he told her that he would send her a book in the mail, so she could restart her collection.
After returning to Houston, she received his gift, titled The Medieval Book by Barbara Shailor. Carver included a note that read:
Dear Sarah,
I have often thought of you and your family, and that terrible flood… As promised, with the letter is a rather scholarly book, which may be slightly mature(成熟) for your age, but I thought it might help you shape your new library collection. And as the years progress, this book may grow in value to you. Have a happy holiday season. Wish you and your loved ones all the best.
Yours,
Bill Carver
A lot has changed since Feldman received that book. Feldman is in her 30s now. She’s married and has a dog. But Carver’s gift has made a lifelong impact. “I’m interested in medieval art,” Feldman said. Feldman has tried to find Carver, but with no success. If she could speak to him today, she would like to tell him how much that small gesture meant to her.
24. What happened to Feldman
A. She was stuck in a flood.

26. What can be learned about The Medieval Book

Have you ever wondered about people’s names Where do they come from What do they mean
People’s first names, or given names, are chosen by their parents. Sometimes the name of a grandparent or other members of the family is used. Some parents choose the name of a well-known person. A boy could be named George Washington Smith; a girl could be named Helen Keller Jones. Some people give their children names that mean good things. Clara means “bright”; Beatrice means “one who gives happiness”; Donald means “world ruler”; Leonard means “as brave as a lion”.
The earliest last names, or surnames (姓), were taken from place names. A family with the name Brook or Brooks probably lived near a small river; someone called Longstreet probably lived on a long, paved road. The Greenwood family lived in or near a leafy forest.
Other early surnames came from people’s occupations. The most common occupational name is Smith, which means a person who makes things with iron or other metals. In the past, smiths were very important workers in every town and village. Some other occupational names are: Carter — a person who owned or drove a cart; Potter — a person who made pots and pans. The ancestors of the Baker family probably baked bread for their neighbors in their native village. The Carpenter’s great-great-great-grandfather probably built houses and furniture.
Sometimes people were known for their special abilities. When there were two men who were named John in the same village, John Fish was probably an excellent swimmer and John Lightfoot was probably a fast runner or a good dancer.
Some family names were made by adding something to the father’s name. English-speaking people added “-s” or “-son”. The Johnsons are descendants of John; the Roberts family’s ancestor was Robert. Irish and Scottish people added “Mac” or “Mc” or “O”. Perhaps all of the MacDonnells and the McDonnells and the O’Donnells are descendants of the same Donnell.
28. Which of the following aspects do the surnames in the passage NOT cover
A. Places where people lived. B. People’s characters.
C. Talents that people had. D. People’s occupations.
29. According to the passage, the ancestors of the Potter family most probably .
A. owned or drove a cart B. made things with metals
C. made kitchen tools D. built houses and furniture
30. Suppose an English couple whose ancestors lived near a leafy forest wanted their new-born son to become a world leader, the baby might be named .
A. Beatrice Smith B. Leonard Carter
C. George Longstreet D. Donald Greenwood
31. The underlined word “descendants” in the last paragraph means a person’s .
A. later generations B. friends and relatives
C. colleagues and partners D. helpers and supporters
【答案】28. B 29. C 30. D 31. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了英语中人的名字的由来和寓意,以及姓氏的主要地名、职业、能力、祖先名。
【28题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中“The earliest last names, or surnames (姓), were taken from place names. (最早的姓氏是取自地名。)”、第四段中“Other early surnames came from people’s occupations. (其他早期的姓氏来自人们的职业。)”和第五段中“Sometimes people were known for their special abilities. (有时人们因他们的特殊能力而被认识。)”可知,文章提到了姓氏来源于人们所居住地的地名、所从事的职业和所具有的能力,未提及人们的性格。故选B项。
【29题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段中“Potter — a person who made pots and pans. (Potter——制作锅碗瓢盆的人。)”可知,Potter家族的祖先很有可能是制作厨房用具的人。故选C项。
【30题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“Donald means “world ruler” (Donald的意思是“世界统治者”)”和第三段中“The Greenwood family lived in or near a leafy forest. (Greenwood一家住在一片茂密的森林里或附近。)”可知,如果一对英国夫妇的祖先住在一片茂密的森林附近,他们希望自己刚出生的儿子成为世界领袖,那么婴儿应该取名Donald Greenwood。故选D项。
【31题详解】
词义猜测题。根据画线词所在句的上文“Some family names were made by adding something to the father’s name. English-speaking people added “-s” or “-son”. (有些姓氏是在祖先的名字上加上一些东西而形成的。说英语的人加“-s”或“-son”)”和下文“the Roberts family’s ancestor was Robert (Roberts家族的祖先是Robert)”可知,此处介绍有些姓氏是在祖先的名字的基础上演变而来的,举出加-s或-son的例子,Roberts这一姓氏是在祖先Robert后加-s。因此,Johnsons这一姓氏是在祖先John后加-son,由此可知,Johnsons是John的后代,descendants意思应该是“后代”,与later generations意思相近。故选A项。
D
What’s the size of a soccer ball but can jump from the Statue of Liberty’s feet to her eye level
A new record-setting robot.
A mechanical engineer at the University of California, Santa Barbara, Elliot Hawkes has been working on this robot for seven years. “It started out as a stick with weights and rubber bands (橡皮筋),” he recalls. After years of work, the robot has reached heights of 30 meters, higher than any other jumping robot or living animal. This robot’s legs are made of carbon fiber, a super-strong material. Rubber bands add extra spring but also help hold the legs together.
These researchers studied how animals jump. They looked into leaping (跳跃的) frogs, spiders, kangaroos, dogs and more. But Hawkes’ group didn’t want to copy any of these animals. Instead, the team learned what features set the limits for animal jumpers.
“It’s very exciting,” says Cynthia Sung, a roboticist at the University of Pennsylvania in Philadelphia, who was not involved in the new study. She was impressed with how high the robot leapt. And getting as high as possible was the main goal here. However, for the robot to be of great use, it will need some improvements. “They don’t have any steering (转向装置) at all,” notes Sung. That means this robot can’t control its jump height or direction. Sung’s team has made their own jumping robot, named REBOund. That robot can’t jump very high. But it can be programmed to jump to any of several different heights.
Hawkes’ team is working to add steering to their robot. These researchers hope to send their robot to the moon, so they also want to find a way for it to make collections there. A jumper can go to places a robot with wheels can’t. “This type of robot could leap into the bottom of a crater (火山口), take samples and return to a wheeled rover (探测器),” points out Hawkes. His team is already working with NASA. They hope to turn their robot into a space explorer.
32. Why did the researchers look into frogs
A. To draw inspiration for the robot’s appearance. B. To find reasons for their jumping limits.
C. To make the robot jump like them. D. To develop new type of rubber bands.
33. What does Cynthia Sung want to show through her words
A. Her REBOund is much better. B. Her REBOund is a big breakthrough.
C. Hawkes’ new robot needs to be more useful. D. Hawkes’ new robot can jump much higher.
34. What is Hawkes’ team’s attitude to their robot
A. They have high hopes for it. B. They are doubtful about it.
C. They seem uninterested in it D. They are very concerned about it.
35. What would be the best title for the text
A. A new potential way to explore the moon B. A new record-setting leaping robot
C. A new approach to jumping higher D. A new method of building robots
【答案】32. B 33. C 34. A 35. B
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一种新型跳跃机器人,体积小但是却可以跳得很高。文章介绍了研发过程以及人们对此的看法。
【32题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段“But Hawkes’ group didn’t want to copy any of these animals. Instead, the team learned what features set the limits for animal jumpers.(但霍克斯的研究小组并不想复制这些动物。相反,研究小组了解到是什么特征限制了动物跳跃)”可知,研究人员研究青蛙是为了寻找他们跳跃限制的原因。故选B。
【33题详解】
细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“However, for the robot to be of great use, it will need some improvements. “They don’t have any steering (转向装置) at all,” notes Sung. That means this robot can’t control its jump height or direction.(然而,为了让机器人发挥更大的作用,它还需要一些改进。宋说:“他们根本没有方向盘。”这意味着这个机器人不能控制它的跳跃高度和方向)”可知,辛西娅·宋想表达的是霍克斯的新机器人发挥更大的作用。故选C。
【34题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段“These researchers hope to send their robot to the moon, so they also want to find a way for it to make collections there.(这些研究人员希望把他们的机器人送上月球,所以他们也想找到一种方法让它在那里收集东西)”以及““This type of robot could leap into the bottom of a crater (火山口), take samples and return to a wheeled rover (探测器),” points out Hawkes. His team is already working with NASA. They hope to turn their robot into a space explorer.(霍克斯指出:“这种类型的机器人可以跳进火山口底部,采集样本,然后返回轮式漫游者。”他的团队已经在与美国宇航局合作。他们希望把他们的机器人变成一个太空探索者)”可知,霍克斯的团队对他们的机器人抱有很高的期望。故选A。
【35题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第二段“A new record-setting robot.(一个创造新纪录的机器人)”结合文章主要介绍了一种新型跳跃机器人,体积小但是却可以跳得很高。文章介绍了研发过程以及人们对此的看法。故B选项“一个新的创纪录的跳跃机器人”最符合文章标题。故选B。

上文“Self-massaging should become a part of your daily musts.(自我按摩应该成为你日常必备的一部分。)”说明自我按摩非常重要。刷牙和洗澡是每个人必备的日常活动。D选项“It should be as necessary as brushing your teeth or taking a shower.(这应该和刷牙或洗澡一样必要。)”这里作者表面自我按摩对每个人而言要跟刷牙和洗澡一样每天都要进行。符合上文所说日常按摩要成为日常必需的一部分。故选D.
【38题详解】
上文“In less than five minutes, the goal is to break a sweat. This can be from running or lifting weights.(在不到五分钟的时间里,我们的目标是流汗。这可能来自跑步或举重。)”说明微活动中的高强度运动的目标是让人们流汗。G选项“It doesn’t matter which activity you choose, so long as you bring intensity to that workout.(你选择哪项运动并不重要,只要你能给训练带来强度。)”符合上文作者说的无论你选择哪种活动,都需要能达到流汗的强度。故选G.
【39题详解】
根据下文“Thus we will feel happy and relaxed.(这样我们就会感到快乐和放松。)”可知,空格处的句子应该说到“什么事让我们感到快乐和放松”,所以F选项“The playful nature helps bring out the inner child and promotes creativity and joy.(顽皮的天性有助于激发内心的童心,促进创造力和快乐。)”填入空格处,和上文是顺接关系,符合语境。故选F.
【40题详解】
根据下文“Your body loves movement. But we must find a few moments of stillness throughout our day. (你的身体喜欢运动。但我们必须在一天中找到一些安静的时刻。)”和But说明前后是转折关系。说明身体热爱运动,每项活动都包含着身体的运动。但是也需要安静的时刻。所以,E选项“Every activity involves some sort of movement.(每一项活动都涉及到某种运动。)”填入空格处,符号语境。故选E.

【57题详解】
考查冠词。句意:12月7日,国际奥林匹克委员会(IOC)宣布,在2024年巴黎夏季奥运会上,霹雳舞将成为一项奥林匹克运动。单词Olympic以元音因素开头,所以需要不定冠词an表示泛指“一项奥林匹克运动”。故填an。
【58题详解】
考查定语从句引导词。句意:这将是加入奥运会的最新现代运动。分析句子可知空格处缺少定语从句引导词修饰先行词the latest modern sport,且在从句中作主语,先行词被latest修饰,只用that引导。故填that。

【64题详解】
考查代词。句意:虽然霹雳舞通常被认为是街舞的一种风格,但由于其竞技性,它比其他舞蹈更容易被归类为体育项目。分析句子可知在名词短语competitive nature之前需要形容词性物主代词its(它的),即“霹雳舞的”符合题意。故填its。

Two decades ago, Tropical Storm Allison hit Houston. More than 70,000 houses were flooded, including the home of Sarah Feldman and her family.
At the time, they were in Connecticut on vacation, so they didn’t know what kind of damage they were going to face when they got home to Texas. But then Feldman’s grandparents called with bad news: all of her books had been destroyed in the flooding. Feldman was 14 at the time and loved reading.
To cheer her up, Feldman’s father took her to the Beinecke Rare Book & Manuscript Library at Yale University. When they arrived, she started a conversation with Bill Carver, a man who worked at the library.
“I asked him a bunch of questions like, ‘How do you keep all these rare books What’s the oldest book you have ’” Feldman remembered. Carver answered all of Feldman’s questions. When she told him about her books being destroyed, he told her that he would send her a book in the mail, so she could restart her collection.
After returning to Houston, she received his gift, titled The Medieval Book by Barbara Shailor. Carver included a note that read:
Dear Sarah,
I have often thought of you and your family, and that terrible flood… As promised, with the letter is a rather scholarly book, which may be slightly mature(成熟) for your age, but I thought it might help you shape your new library collection. And as the years progress, this book may grow in value to you. Have a happy holiday season. Wish you and your loved ones all the best.
Yours,
Bill Carver
A lot has changed since Feldman received that book. Feldman is in her 30s now. She’s married and has a dog. But Carver’s gift has made a lifelong impact. “I’m interested in medieval art,” Feldman said. Feldman has tried to find Carver, but with no success. If she could speak to him today, she would like to tell him how much that small gesture meant to her.

Have you ever wondered about people’s names Where do they come from What do they mean
People’s first names, or given names, are chosen by their parents. Sometimes the name of a grandparent or other members of the family is used. Some parents choose the name of a well-known person. A boy could be named George Washington Smith; a girl could be named Helen Keller Jones. Some people give their children names that mean good things. Clara means “bright”; Beatrice means “one who gives happiness”; Donald means “world ruler”; Leonard means “as brave as a lion”.
The earliest last names, or surnames (姓), were taken from place names. A family with the name Brook or Brooks probably lived near a small river; someone called Longstreet probably lived on a long, paved road. The Greenwood family lived in or near a leafy forest.
Other early surnames came from people’s occupations. The most common occupational name is Smith, which means a person who makes things with iron or other metals. In the past, smiths were very important workers in every town and village. Some other occupational names are: Carter — a person who owned or drove a cart; Potter — a person who made pots and pans. The ancestors of the Baker family probably baked bread for their neighbors in their native village. The Carpenter’s great-great-great-grandfather probably built houses and furniture.
Sometimes people were known for their special abilities. When there were two men who were named John in the same village, John Fish was probably an excellent swimmer and John Lightfoot was probably a fast runner or a good dancer.
Some family names were made by adding something to the father’s name. English-speaking people added “-s” or “-son”. The Johnsons are descendants of John; the Roberts family’s ancestor was Robert. Irish and Scottish people added “Mac” or “Mc” or “O”. Perhaps all of the MacDonnells and the McDonnells and the O’Donnells are descendants of the same Donnell.
28. Which of the following aspects do the surnames in the passage NOT cover
A. Places where people lived. B. People’s characters.
C. Talents that people had. D. People’s occupations.
29. According to the passage, the ancestors of the Potter family most probably .
A. owned or drove a cart B. made things with metals
C. made kitchen tools D. built houses and furniture
30. Suppose an English couple whose ancestors lived near a leafy forest wanted their new-born son to become a world leader, the baby might be named .
A. Beatrice Smith B. Leonard Carter
C. George Longstreet D. Donald Greenwood
31. The underlined word “descendants” in the last paragraph means a person’s .
A. later generations B. friends and relatives
C. colleagues and partners D. helpers and supporters
D
What’s the size of a soccer ball but can jump from the Statue of Liberty’s feet to her eye level
A new record-setting robot.
A mechanical engineer at the University of California, Santa Barbara, Elliot Hawkes has been working on this robot for seven years. “It started out as a stick with weights and rubber bands (橡皮筋),” he recalls. After years of work, the robot has reached heights of 30 meters, higher than any other jumping robot or living animal. This robot’s legs are made of carbon fiber, a super-strong material. Rubber bands add extra spring but also help hold the legs together.
These researchers studied how animals jump. They looked into leaping (跳跃的) frogs, spiders, kangaroos, dogs and more. But Hawkes’ group didn’t want to copy any of these animals. Instead, the team learned what features set the limits for animal jumpers.
“It’s very exciting,” says Cynthia Sung, a roboticist at the University of Pennsylvania in Philadelphia, who was not involved in the new study. She was impressed with how high the robot leapt. And getting as high as possible was the main goal here. However, for the robot to be of great use, it will need some improvements. “They don’t have any steering (转向装置) at all,” notes Sung. That means this robot can’t control its jump height or direction. Sung’s team has made their own jumping robot, named REBOund. That robot can’t jump very high. But it can be programmed to jump to any of several different heights.
Hawkes’ team is working to add steering to their robot. These researchers hope to send their robot to the moon, so they also want to find a way for it to make collections there. A jumper can go to places a robot with wheels can’t. “This type of robot could leap into the bottom of a crater (火山口), take samples and return to a wheeled rover (探测器),” points out Hawkes. His team is already working with NASA. They hope to turn their robot into a space explorer.
32. Why did the researchers look into frogs
A. To draw inspiration for the robot’s appearance. B. To find reasons for their jumping limits.
C. To make the robot jump like them. D. To develop new type of rubber bands.
33. What does Cynthia Sung want to show through her words
A. Her REBOund is much better. B. Her REBOund is a big breakthrough.
C. Hawkes’ new robot needs to be more useful. D. Hawkes’ new robot can jump much higher.
34. What is Hawkes’ team’s attitude to their robot
A. They have high hopes for it. B. They are doubtful about it.
C. They seem uninterested in it D. They are very concerned about it.
35. What would be the best title for the text
A. A new potential way to explore the moon B. A new record-setting leaping robot
C. A new approach to jumping higher D. A new method of building robots
