When I was a teenager, I wrote postcards to show my friends the new places I had explored every time my family took a vacation. I considered postcards as simply a way to share travels until I came across my grandmother’s postcard album.
It was a dark gray leather album, where most of the postcards had pictures that did not reflect a holiday or a travel destination. Instead, the notes were mostly invitations to a dinner party or, a walk the next day.
“Why do these postcards ask you to come to tea ” I asked my grandmother. “Because this is how we communicated before we had a telephone,” she said. “I would post a postcard in the morning mail, and a friend would receive it that afternoon. Then she would post a reply that arrived in my mail the next morning.”
I was surprised. Life without a phone sounded like something out of the world. Connecting by postcard seemed as unexpected as using a carrier pigeon (信鸽). I had forgotten about my grandmother’s postcards until lockdowns (封锁) restricted our trips to seeing our three granddaughters. Remembering my grandmother’s album, I bought several sets of cards and every few weeks, I’d write notes and mail them. The girls sometimes responded with brief thank-you texts.
Then one day I opened my mailbox and spotted three hand-addressed envelopes. They were from my granddaughters, each thanking me for the postcards. The notes captured their disappointment with the pandemic and described how my messages had comforted them.
I had been thinking how my grandmother had accepted the telephone as a new way to keep relationships. Like her, I accepted the girls’ preferred mode of communication and texted my thanks for their letters. However, even as the lockdowns end, I will continue to send them postcards because everyone enjoys receiving a real letter.
24. Why did the author’s grandmother write postcards
A. To share off her travel experiences. B. To show love and care.

C. It was just as usual. D. It was attractive.

27. Which one should be the title for the text
A. An Old Postcard Album B. New Ways of Communication

Do you like Chinese traditional painting and dance They are two important parts of the traditional Chinese art. But what about when they meet each other
This year, a dance drama titled Poetic Dance: The Journey of a Legendary Landscape Painting (《只此青绿》) was staged on CCTV’s Spring Festival Gala and became popular.
According to CCTV, this poetic dance program was inspired by the 900-year-old Chinese painting A Panorama of Rivers and Mountains (《千里江山图》). Created by Song Dynasty painter Wang Ximeng at about 18, the painting is amazing in its sweeping size, rich coloration and the expressive details, reported CCTV. It shows a Chinese blue-green landscape: “mountains and groupings of infinite (无限) rise and fall between cloudless sky and rippling (涟漪的) water”.
When the dancers moved elegantly, audiences seemed to be looking at the moving mountains and rivers. “It brings me a pure experience of beauty. It is not only a drama but also an exhibition. Vast mountains and rivers are coming to life!” Internet user Mo Weisha wrote in a review. “More than a thousand years later, green mountains and rivers still impress people as they did long ago.” Some people even decided to watch the dance again when it was staged in the theaters later. In fact, in recent years, more and more modern shows feature Chinese traditional culture and have received warm welcome. As for the reason, it is due to people’s great love for traditional culture.
“The younger generations have grown up with a more open mind. They accept Chinese culture and are proud of it.” Yao Wei, director of Henan TV Station’s Innovation Center, told China Daily.
28. What’s the writing purpose of Paragraph 1
A. To show a doubtful attitude. B. To introduce the topic.
C. To describe the art world. D. To raise a question.

A. CCTV’s Spring Festival Gala.

D. An ancient Chinese traditional painting.
30. Why did this poetic dance enjoy welcome

B. Green mountains and rivers greatly impress people.
C. The poetic dance can be staged in the theaters later.
D. Increasing modem shows feature Chinese traditional culture.
31. What’s the main idea of the whole passage

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.
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. 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.
32. Which of the following statements is false about the device
A It can repair itself. B. It can be recycled.
C. It can evaluate itself. D. It can transform energy.
33. 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.
34. 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.
35. 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

When I was a teenager, I wrote postcards to show my friends the new places I had explored every time my family took a vacation. I considered postcards as simply a way to share travels until I came across my grandmother’s postcard album.
It was a dark gray leather album, where most of the postcards had pictures that did not reflect a holiday or a travel destination. Instead, the notes were mostly invitations to a dinner party or, a walk the next day.
“Why do these postcards ask you to come to tea ” I asked my grandmother. “Because this is how we communicated before we had a telephone,” she said. “I would post a postcard in the morning mail, and a friend would receive it that afternoon. Then she would post a reply that arrived in my mail the next morning.”
I was surprised. Life without a phone sounded like something out of the world. Connecting by postcard seemed as unexpected as using a carrier pigeon (信鸽). I had forgotten about my grandmother’s postcards until lockdowns (封锁) restricted our trips to seeing our three granddaughters. Remembering my grandmother’s album, I bought several sets of cards and every few weeks, I’d write notes and mail them. The girls sometimes responded with brief thank-you texts.
Then one day I opened my mailbox and spotted three hand-addressed envelopes. They were from my granddaughters, each thanking me for the postcards. The notes captured their disappointment with the pandemic and described how my messages had comforted them.
I had been thinking how my grandmother had accepted the telephone as a new way to keep relationships. Like her, I accepted the girls’ preferred mode of communication and texted my thanks for their letters. However, even as the lockdowns end, I will continue to send them postcards because everyone enjoys receiving a real letter.

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.
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. 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.
32. Which of the following statements is false about the device
A. It can repair itself. B. It can be recycled.
C. It can evaluate itself. D. It can transform energy.
33. 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.
34. 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.
35. 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】32. C 33. D 34. A 35. A

【36题详解】
根据空前“There is a large amount of paper a college student goes through every term.(大学生每学期都要读大量的论文。)”以及下文中的“these things(这些东西)”可知,此空应该列举出一些校园用到纸的地方,而F项“It includes class notes, term papers, student newspapers and so on.(它包括课堂笔记、学期论文、学生报纸等。)”中有“class notes(课堂笔记)”,“term papers(学期论文)”,“student newspapers(学生报纸)”,符合上下文语境,因此推断F项符合语境,故选F。
【37题详解】
本段小标题是“Buy green.(买环保的。)”,它建议人们购买绿色产品,故本句内容应有绿色商品相关的内容。C项“Buy as many recycled products as possible.(购买尽可能多的回收产品。)”中有“recycled goods”是环保产品,因此推断C项符合语境,故选C。
【38题详解】
本段标题为“Walk and bike to school.(步行或者骑自行车上学)”,与校园交通有关。根据空后的“Walking or biking will help make your campus a green university.(步行或骑自行车将有助于使你的校园成为绿色大学。)”可知,建议大学生更多步行和骑自行车。E项“On top of that, almost all universities are pedestrian (步行者) friendly.(最重要的是,几乎所有的大学都对行人友好。)”提到“pedestrian(步行者)”,E项符合语境,进一步说明步行的可取之处,故选E。

本段要求选小标题。根据本段“A water bottle can be refilled at any water fountain and can easily be drunk in class or while riding a bike. This will protect the environment by decreasing the amount of plastic waste on your campus.(水瓶可以在任何饮水机补充,可以很容易地在课堂上或骑自行车时喝。这将通过减少校园塑料垃圾的数量来保护环境。)”可知,本段说明了使用水瓶的好处,建议人们自己携带水瓶,以免产生额外的塑料瓶等垃圾。A项“Carry a water bottle.(带一个水瓶。)”建议自己带水瓶,可作为小标题,故选A。
【40题详解】
根据本段小标题“Buy used clothing.(买二手衣服。)”可知,本段讲述了买旧衣服的好处。空前一句“It is usually thought of as something to do to save money.(这通常被认为是为了省钱。)”说明买旧衣服可以省钱, B项“It is also good for the environment!(这对环境也有好处!)”也是其中一个好处,it指代上文说的“购买旧衣服”,因此符合语境。故选B。
