B
When she was ten years old, Isadora Duncan dropped out of school to teach people dance. If that job was left to any other ten-year-old, it would have turned out frustrating, difficult, and a little discouraging.
But Duncan was different. Not only was she already talented enough to earn money even at that age, but she also had a rare kind of confidence that helped her treat troubles as fuel —something to strengthen the fire that is already burning inside of her.
It’s no surprise, then, that when she moved to New York to join a theatre company, she found herself limited. The existing dancing style, their way of operating—all of this seemed to her the work of a misguided past. Duncan was very direct about what she wanted, confidently telling people she had a different vision of dance that she was going to spread in the world. This, naturally, led to laughs early on, but as she built up her work, these instances became less frequent. Today, she is remembered as “The Mother of Dance”, with much of the modern art owing its expressive style to her influence. Inspired by the ancient Greeks, she brought the style to life.
In her autobiography (自传), one of the things Duncan frequently regards as the basis of her expressive spirit is the fact that she had a childhood where she wasn’t constantly watched. The expectations of her mother were open-ended. It was the freedom of this lifestyle that drove her to see what she could do.
Growing up, before she left school, she was told one of two things: that she was either completely useless or that she was a genius. There was nothing in between. Even when she started working, people either bowed to her or they basically ignored her. But Duncan never doubted her own genius.
There is an old quotation “if you judge a fish by its ability to climb a tree, it will live its whole life believing that it is stupid.” And it captures an important truth. At school, Isadora Duncan was a failure. In the dance hall, she gave form to brilliance.
34. What does the underlined phrase “treat troubles as fuel” mean
A. Duncan used troubles to push her forward towards her dream.
B. Duncan was good at burning away everyday troubles.
C. Troubles turned Duncan into a confident girl.
D. Troubles lit the fire of dancing in Duncan.
35. Which of the following is TRUE about Duncan
A. Her experience in New York was the foundation of her career.
B. Her teaching job when she was little ruined her confidence.
C. Her dancing style was not very well received at the beginning.
D. Her mother set higher expectation on her than she could bear.
36. What does the author try to tell the readers in the last paragraph
A. It is useless climbing a tree to catch fish.
B. Everybody is a genius in his own way.
C. Sadness come from human stupidity.
D. Teachers can affect students greatly.
37. What is this passage mainly about
A. Isadora Duncan’s childhood and her achievements today.
B. Duncan’s career development and other dancers’ opinions of her.
C. Isadora Duncan’s early experiences and the reasons for her success.
D. Duncan’s high status in the dancing world and her unique expressive style.
C
Many strawberry farmers prefer to remove natural habitat around their farms to keep wild birds, and any bacteria they carry, away from their fields and crops. However a new study published in 2022 shows that farms with surrounding natural habitat experience the most benefits from birds, including less crop damage and lower food-safety risks.
The study was conducted at 21 strawberry fields along California’s Central Coast. It found that birds were more likely to carry bacteria and eat berries without surrounding natural habitat.
For the study scientists looked at the analysis of 1,000 fecal (排泄物) samples from 55 bird species, combined with data from more than 300 bird surveys. They used the information to figure out what each bird was eating - be it pests, beneficial insects or crops-as well as which birds were carrying bacteria. Using this data, the scientists then ranked wild birds to see which were more likely to bring most benefits or costs to farmlands. Barn swallows, for example, were ranked beneficial to farmland.
But the results were more than creating a list of “good” and “bad” birds. The study found that most bird species brought both costs and benefits to farms, depending on how the surrounding land was managed. The presence of natural habitat was the single most important factor differentiating a farm where wild birds brought more benefits than harm. And farms with surrounding natural habitat for birds constantly saw less damage and fewer bacteria problems than others.
The study was part of a series of research conducted in Daniel Karp’s lab at University of California, Davis, all focusing on the impact and importance of maintaining natural habitat for wildlife surrounding farmland. A related study in 2020 also found that farms with natural habitat attracted more insect-eating birds and fewer strawberry-eating birds so that farmers experience less berry damage on farms with more habitat nearby.
38. What is the finding of the new study in 2022
A. Wild birds in farms decrease food-safety risks.
B. Natural habitat near farms reduces crop damage
C. Birds in natural habitat carry more bacteria to farms.
D. Farms neighboring natural habitat benefit most from birds.
39. Which of the following was a research step in the study
A. Analyzing 55 bird species.
B. Conducting 300 bird surveys.
C Finding out what wild birds eat.
D. Ranking birds according to how they eat.
40. What determined the impact that birds brought to farms
A. Presence of neighboring farmlands.
B. Management of the surrounding land.
C. Location of natural habitat for wildlife.
D. Species of wild birds that lived near farms.
41. Why is a related study in 2020 mentioned in the last paragraph
A. To draw a conclusion. B. To make a comparison.
C. To support the research finding. D. To give background information.
D
Researchers have developed a wearable device (设备). It is stretchy (有弹性的) enough that you can wear it like a ring, a bracelet or any other accessory that touches your skin. It also changes the body’s temperature into electricity, about 1 volt of energy for every square centimeter of skin space — less voltage per area than what most existing batteries provide but still enough to power electronics like watches or fitness trackers. It can heal itself when damaged and is fully recyclable, making it a cleaner alternative (替代品) to traditional electronics. “In the future, we want to be able to power your wearable electronics without having to include a battery,” said Jianliang Xiao, senior author of the new paper and an associate professor in the Paul M. Rady Department of Mechanical Engineering at CU Boulder.
The innovation (创新) begins with a base made out of a stretchy material called polyamine. The scientists then stick a series of thin heating chips into that base, connecting them all with liquid metal wires. The final product looks like a Cross between a plastic watch and a minicomputer motherboard or maybe a diamond ring.
Just pretend that you’re out for a jog. As you exercise, your body heats up, and that heat will radiate out to the cool air around you. The device catches that flow of energy instead of letting it go to waste. “The thermoelectric generators are in close contact with the human body, and they can use the heat that would normally be dissipated (消散) into the environment,” said Jianliang Xiao. A person taking a quick walk could use a device the size of a typical sports wristband to produce about 5 volts of electricity, which is more than what many watch batteries can hold.
The new devices are as stretchy as biological tissue. If your device tears, for example, you can put together the broken ends, and they’ll seal back up in just a few minutes.
Researchers are trying to make their devices as cheap and reliable as possible, while also having as close to zero effect on the environment as possible. While there are still problems to work out in the design, they think that the devices could appear on the market in a few years.
42. Which of the following statements is false about the device
A. It can repair itself. B. It can be recycled.
C. It can update itself. D. It can transform energy.
43. How can a wearer make the device produce electricity
A. By shaking it fast. B. By leaving it in the cool air.
C. By connecting it with watch batteries. D. By giving out heat.
44. What do the researchers think about the devices
A. They will have a bright future.
B. They will be expensive.
C. They can not be damaged by force.
D. They are completely environment-friendly.
45. What is the best title for the text
A. An Innovation in wearable Devices
B. A Great Exercise Companion
C A New Function of Traditional Electronics
D. A Biological Battery in the Human Body
第二节 七选五(10小题,每小题2分,共20分)
阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
In life, everyone wants to have friends who he or she can trust forever. ___46___ It is scary because in most cases you have to get out of your comfort zone and put yourself out there.
However, once the strangeness becomes a thought of the past, it becomes much easier to talk to potential new friends. ___47___Get over the shyness of meeting new people and be yourself. Start out with a simple conversation like “Hello, I like your coat” or a discussion about the weather. Those icebreakers will give you the time to feel comfortable and help you open the floor for future conversations.
___48___It can be attending a book club or maybe just enjoying a cup of coffee. Making new friendships means learning about someone and sharing stories about each other’s life. Think of your new friendship as a plant. In order to grow, you have to water it and provide it with sunlight. ___49___ If you want to make new friends, you have to be willing to make the effort. Keep in mind that some people are more outing than others and it’s okay to be reserved(矜持). But it’s necessary to make use of opportunities to develop your newly-found friendship.
One thing to be cautious about, when you meet new people, is to be always genuine(真诚的).___50___If you don’t like fishing or running, then don’t pretend that you do just so someone will be friends with you. Find people that share common interests and goals and build your friendship. Then you’ll find it’s much easier to keep friendships.
A. Friendships are quite similar.
B. Friendships are great support systems.
C. In most cases, you are your biggest road block.
D. Be true to yourself and don’t be someone that you are not.
E. However, making new friends is much easier said than done.
F. Building new friendships means spending quality time together.
G. Then find a common ground and build your friendship around that.
Benefits of Reading
The benefits of reading start with the first book a baby hears and continue into childhood and throughout the child’s life. Here are some reasons why reading is important.
Reading teaches children about the world around them. ___51___They are exposed to ways of life, ideas and beliefs about the world which may be different from those which surround them. This builds a store of background knowledge, which helps younger children learn to read confidently.
___52___When we read, our brains translate the descriptions we read of people , places and things into pictures. When we are reading a story, we are also imagining how the characters are feeling. We use our own experiences to imagine how we would feel in the same situation
Children who read do better at school. And they don’t just do better at subjects like reading, English and history. ___53___
Reading is a great form of entertainment! A paperback book or an e-reader doesn’t take up much space so you can take it anywhere and you’ll never be lonely or bored if you have a book in your bag. ___54___
Reading relaxes the body and calms the mind. ___55___The constant movement, flashing lights and noise are quite stressful for our brains. When we read in silence, the black print on a white page is much less stressful for our eyes and brains.
A. Reading improves concentration.
B. Reading develops a child’s imagination.
C. We seem to have forgotten how to relax and how to be silent.
D. Children learn new words and greatly enlarge their vocabulary.
E. They do better at all subjects and they do better all the day through school.
F. You can read while waiting for a friend or during a flight delay at an airport.

When she was ten years old Isadora Duncan dropped out of school to teach people dance. If that job was left to any other ten-year-old, it would have turned out frustrating, difficult, and a little discouraging.
But Duncan was different. Not only was she already talented enough to earn money even at that age, but she also had a rare kind of confidence that helped her treat troubles as fuel —something to strengthen the fire that is already burning inside of her.
It’s no surprise, then, that when she moved to New York to join a theatre company, she found herself limited. The existing dancing style, their way of operating—all of this seemed to her the work of a misguided past. Duncan was very direct about what she wanted, confidently telling people she had a different vision of dance that she was going to spread in the world. This, naturally, led to laughs early on, but as she built up her work, these instances became less frequent. Today, she is remembered as “The Mother of Dance”, with much of the modern art owing its expressive style to her influence. Inspired by the ancient Greeks, she brought the style to life.
In her autobiography (自传), one of the things Duncan frequently regards as the basis of her expressive spirit is the fact that she had a childhood where she wasn’t constantly watched. The expectations of her mother were open-ended. It was the freedom of this lifestyle that drove her to see what she could do.
Growing up, before she left school, she was told one of two things: that she was either completely useless or that she was a genius. There was nothing in between. Even when she started working, people either bowed to her or they basically ignored her. But Duncan never doubted her own genius.
There is an old quotation “if you judge a fish by its ability to climb a tree, it will live its whole life believing that it is stupid.” And it captures an important truth. At school, Isadora Duncan was a failure. In the dance hall, she gave form to brilliance.
34. What does the underlined phrase “treat troubles as fuel” mean
A. Duncan used troubles to push her forward towards her dream.
B. Duncan was good at burning away everyday troubles.
C. Troubles turned Duncan into a confident girl.
D. Troubles lit the fire of dancing in Duncan.
35. Which of the following is TRUE about Duncan
A. Her experience in New York was the foundation of her career.
B. Her teaching job when she was little ruined her confidence.
C. Her dancing style was not very well received at the beginning.
D. Her mother set higher expectation on her than she could bear.
36. What does the author try to tell the readers in the last paragraph
A. It is useless climbing a tree to catch fish.
B. Everybody is a genius in his own way.
C. Sadness come from human stupidity.
D. Teachers can affect students greatly.
37. What is this passage mainly about
A. Isadora Duncan’s childhood and her achievements today.
B. Duncan’s career development and other dancers’ opinions of her.
C. Isadora Duncan’s early experiences and the reasons for her success.
D. Duncan’s high status in the dancing world and her unique expressive style.

【分析】这是一篇记叙文,短文叙述了伊莎多拉·邓肯早期的经历和她成功的原因。
【34题详解】
词句猜测题。根据上文“ If that job was left to any other ten-year-old, it would have turned out frustrating, difficult, and a little discouraging.”(如果把这份工作留给其他任何一个10岁的孩子,结果会是令人沮丧、困难,甚至有点沮丧)“but she also had a rare kind of confidence”(而且她还有一种罕见的自信)以及下文“something to strengthen the fire that is already burning inside of her.”(使她内心燃烧的火焰更加熊熊燃烧)由此可知,这种自信帮助她把困难当作燃料。故划线的意思是“邓肯利用“困难”推动她向梦想前进。故选A项。
【35题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“Duncan was very direct about what she wanted, confidently telling people she had a different vision of dance that she was going to spread in the world. This, naturally, led to laughs early on”(邓肯非常直接地表达了自己的想法,自信地告诉人们,她对舞蹈有不同的见解,她将在全世界传播自己的见解。在早期,这很自然地引起了人们的嘲笑)由此可知,一开始,她的舞蹈风格不太受欢迎。故选C项。
【36题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“There is an old quotation “if you judge a fish by its ability to climb a tree, it will live its whole life believing that it is stupid.” And it captures an important truth. At school, Isadora Duncan was a failure. In the dance hall, she gave form to brilliance.”(有句老话:“如果你以爬树的能力来判断一条鱼,它一生都会认为自己是愚蠢的。”它抓住了一个重要的事实。在学校里,伊莎多拉·邓肯是个失败者。在舞厅里,她表现得十分出色。)由此判断出,作者在最后一段试图告诉读每个人在自己的擅长的方面都是天才。故选B项。
【37题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段“hen she was ten years old, Isadora Duncan dropped out of school to teach people dance.”(伊莎多拉·邓肯10岁时辍学去教别人跳舞)根据倒数第二段“Growing up, before she left school, she was told one of two things: that she was either completely useless or that she was a genius.”(在她离开学校之前的成长过程中,她被告知两种情况中的一种:要么她完全没用,要么她是个天才)根据第三段“Duncan was very direct about what she wanted, confidently telling people she had a different vision of dance that she was going to spread in the world. This, naturally, led to laughs early on, but as she built up her work, these instances became less frequent. Today, she is remembered as “The Mother of Dance”, with much of the modern art owing its expressive style to her influence. Inspired by the ancient Greeks, she brought the style to life.”(邓肯对她想要的东西非常直接,她自信地告诉人们她对舞蹈有不同的看法,她要把这种看法传播到全世界。这很自然地在一开始就引来了人们的嘲笑,但随着她工作的深入,这种情况就越来越少了。今天,她被誉为“舞蹈之母”,许多现代艺术的表现风格都受到了她的影响。受古希腊人的启发,她把这种风格带到了生活中。)由此可知,短文主要是关于伊莎多拉·邓肯早期的经历和她成功的原因。故选C项。
C
Many strawberry farmers prefer to remove natural habitat around their farms to keep wild birds, and any bacteria they carry, away from their fields and crops. However a new study published in 2022 shows that farms with surrounding natural habitat experience the most benefits from birds, including less crop damage and lower food-safety risks.
The study was conducted at 21 strawberry fields along California’s Central Coast. It found that birds were more likely to carry bacteria and eat berries without surrounding natural habitat.
For the study scientists looked at the analysis of 1,000 fecal (排泄物) samples from 55 bird species, combined with data from more than 300 bird surveys. They used the information to figure out what each bird was eating - be it pests, beneficial insects or crops-as well as which birds were carrying bacteria. Using this data, the scientists then ranked wild birds to see which were more likely to bring most benefits or costs to farmlands. Barn swallows, for example, were ranked beneficial to farmland.
But the results were more than creating a list of “good” and “bad” birds. The study found that most bird species brought both costs and benefits to farms, depending on how the surrounding land was managed. The presence of natural habitat was the single most important factor differentiating a farm where wild birds brought more benefits than harm. And farms with surrounding natural habitat for birds constantly saw less damage and fewer bacteria problems than others.
The study was part of a series of research conducted in Daniel Karp’s lab at University of California, Davis, all focusing on the impact and importance of maintaining natural habitat for wildlife surrounding farmland. A related study in 2020 also found that farms with natural habitat attracted more insect-eating birds and fewer strawberry-eating birds so that farmers experience less berry damage on farms with more habitat nearby.
38. What is the finding of the new study in 2022
A. Wild birds in farms decrease food-safety risks.
B. Natural habitat near farms reduces crop damage
C. Birds in natural habitat carry more bacteria to farms.
D. Farms neighboring natural habitat benefit most from birds.
39. Which of the following was a research step in the study
A. Analyzing 55 bird species.
B. Conducting 300 bird surveys.
C. Finding out what wild birds eat.
D. Ranking birds according to how they eat.
40. What determined the impact that birds brought to farms
A. Presence of neighboring farmlands.
B. Management of the surrounding land.
C. Location of natural habitat for wildlife.
D. Species of wild birds that lived near farms.
41. Why is a related study in 2020 mentioned in the last paragraph
A. To draw a conclusion. B. To make a comparison.
C. To support the research finding. D. To give background information.
【答案】38. D 39. C 40. B 41. C

推理判断题。根据最后一段“…all focusing on the impact and importance of maintaining natural habitat for wildlife surrounding farmland. A related study in 2020 also found that farms with natural habitat attracted more insect-eating birds and fewer strawberry-eating birds …(所有研究都集中在维护农田周围野生动物自然栖息地的影响和重要性。2020年的一项相关研究还发现,拥有自然栖息地的农场吸引了更多的食虫鸟和更少的吃草莓的鸟……)”可知,最后一段提到2020年的一项相关研究是为了支持研究结果。故选C。
D
Researchers have developed a wearable device (设备). It is stretchy (有弹性的) enough that you can wear it like a ring, a bracelet or any other accessory that touches your skin. It also changes the body’s temperature into electricity, about 1 volt of energy for every square centimeter of skin space — less voltage per area than what most existing batteries provide but still enough to power electronics like watches or fitness trackers. It can heal itself when damaged and is fully recyclable, making it a cleaner alternative (替代品) to traditional electronics. “In the future, we want to be able to power your wearable electronics without having to include a battery,” said Jianliang Xiao, senior author of the new paper and an associate professor in the Paul M. Rady Department of Mechanical Engineering at CU Boulder.
The innovation (创新) begins with a base made out of a stretchy material called polyamine. The scientists then stick a series of thin heating chips into that base, connecting them all with liquid metal wires. The final product looks like a Cross between a plastic watch and a minicomputer motherboard or maybe a diamond ring.
Just pretend that you’re out for a jog. As you exercise, your body heats up, and that heat will radiate out to the cool air around you. The device catches that flow of energy instead of letting it go to waste. “The thermoelectric generators are in close contact with the human body, and they can use the heat that would normally be dissipated (消散) into the environment,” said Jianliang Xiao. A person taking a quick walk could use a device the size of a typical sports wristband to produce about 5 volts of electricity, which is more than what many watch batteries can hold.
The new devices are as stretchy as biological tissue. If your device tears, for example, you can put together the broken ends, and they’ll seal back up in just a few minutes.
Researchers are trying to make their devices as cheap and reliable as possible, while also having as close to zero effect on the environment as possible. While there are still problems to work out in the design, they think that the devices could appear on the market in a few years.
42. Which of the following statements is false about the device
A. It can repair itself. B. It can be recycled.
C. It can update itself. D. It can transform energy.
43. How can a wearer make the device produce electricity
A. By shaking it fast. B. By leaving it in the cool air.
C. By connecting it with watch batteries. D. By giving out heat.
44. What do the researchers think about the devices
A. They will have a bright future.
B. They will be expensive.
C. They can not be damaged by force.
D. They are completely environment-friendly.
45. What is the best title for the text
A. An Innovation in wearable Devices
B. A Great Exercise Companion
C. A New Function of Traditional Electronics
D. A Biological Battery in the Human Body
【答案】42. C 43. D 44. A 45. A

阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
In life, everyone wants to have friends who he or she can trust forever. ___46___ It is scary because in most cases you have to get out of your comfort zone and put yourself out there.
However, once the strangeness becomes a thought of the past, it becomes much easier to talk to potential new friends. ___47___Get over the shyness of meeting new people and be yourself. Start out with a simple conversation like “Hello, I like your coat” or a discussion about the weather. Those icebreakers will give you the time to feel comfortable and help you open the floor for future conversations.

One thing to be cautious about, when you meet new people, is to be always genuine(真诚的).___50___If you don’t like fishing or running, then don’t pretend that you do just so someone will be friends with you.

A. Friendships are quite similar.
B. Friendships are great support systems.
C. In most cases, you are your biggest road block.
D. Be true to yourself and don’t be someone that you are not.

下文提示“如果你不喜欢钓鱼或跑步,那么不要假装你喜欢,这样别人就会和你成为朋友。”承接下文,D项 Be true to yourself and don’t be someone that you are not.(做真实的自己,不要做不真实的自己。)切题。故选D。
【点睛】在做七选五时一定要注意and/but/so/besides/however/furthermore/moreover/in addition/what’s more等词汇、固定结构的运用。它们连接了上下文,起着承上启下的作用。像but(但是)、however(然而),表示转折,这说明前后的内容相反或相对。把握住这一点,做起题来就会得心应手。本题第1小题,该项中However“然而”,表示前后是一种转折关系,故答案为E。

【73题详解】
考查定语从句。句意:首先,你可以与你信任的人分享你的担忧,他们的支持和关心可能会帮助你克服/度过困难。分析句子可知,空处引导非限制性定语从句,先行词是people,关系词在从句中作定语,应用关系代词whose引导。故填whose。
【74题详解】
考查介词。句意同上。结合空后的the difficulties可知,此处指“克服困难”或“度过难关”,应用动词短语get over或get through。故填over或through。
【75题详解】
考查副词。句意:此外,要学会明智地看待困难,因为每个人都会遇到困难。空处修饰动词view,应用副词形式wisely“明智地”,作状语。故填wisely。

考查形容词。句意同上。空处和形容词determined并列作表语,应用形容词energetic“精力充沛的”。故填energetic。
【78题详解】
考查状语从句的省略。句意:最后,当你长时间感到悲伤时,你最好去没有焦虑的心理指导室,那里会提供实用的建议来帮助你缓解压力。此处是when引导的时间状语从句的省略,从句主语是you,完整形式是when you are feeling sad for a long time,当状语从句的主语和主句主语一致,且从句含有be动词时,可省略从句的主语和be动词。故填feeling。
【79题详解】
考查名词。句意同上。空处作介词without的宾语,应填名词anxiety“焦虑”,不可数名词。故填anxiety。
【80题详解】
考查动词语态。句意同上。主语advice和动词offer之间是被动关系,应用被动语态,will后接动词原形。故填be offered。

【解析】
【详解】考查非谓语动词。句意:他全神贯注地看书,没有注意到有人进了他的房间。“专注”是concentrate/focus,此处是with复合结构,attention和concentrate/focus之间是逻辑动宾关系,因此空格处用过去分词表被动,故填concentrated/focused。

【答案】led to##resulted in
【解析】
【详解】考查动词短语和助动词用法。句意:这次罢工已经导致许多地区的水电供应中断。表示“导致”应用动词短语lead to或者result in,空前有had,结合句意,主语strike谓语是主动关系,故用过去完成时。故填led to/resulted in。
