The Best Cities to Visit with Great Public Transport
New York City,USA
The New York City subway runs 24 hours a day.A single ride costs less than $3.Everyone in New York rides the train,from bankers and politicians to cooks and cleaners.Riding the train is the best way to experience the city,as you'll hear nearly every language in the world spoken,and you'll probably also get pleasure by watching some performances.Their shows are usually a real treat for visitors.
Edinburgh,Scotland
Scotland's main public transport ScotRail system stops in tiny towns and villages along the way in Edinburgh.Trains are clean,on schedule,and easy to use.Edinburgh has many different choices for public transportation.The brand new Edinburgh Trams,which was completed in June 2023,offers a pleasant way to get from central Edinburgh out to the airport.
Mexico City,Mexico
Mexico City continuously improves its public transportation while placing an increasing number of limitations to cars to ensure clear air.There are various options,like a Metro train network,aboveground light rail,minibuses,and interstate buses that can quickly get you to Tepoztlan,Cuernavaca,Oaxaca and beyond.Unlike the proper Metro trains,which are very simple,with clear signs and maps,minibuses might be a bit confusing for first-time visitors.

"The benefits brought to my life from running are not only physical.Running gets me out of home, "says Youyou,a visually impaired(视觉障碍)runner.
Yachi has been pacing(领跑)for Youyou for several years.They crashed into each other repeatedly when they first tried running with the 30cm-long rope between them.When they run,a 30cm-long blue rope connects Youyou's left wrist(手腕)to Yachi's right.They move like each other's mirror image,using the rope as a form of communication.When Yachi's and Youyou's speeds are the same,the rope will naturally relax.The two don't actually need to talk too much about running.Now,they run like each other's clones.
Thanks to the rope,running is no longer a lonely task,explains Yachi. "This is a matter of achievements for both of us.Not only am I helping him improve,he is also pushing me to hold on and be strong, "he says.
When preparing for a competition,more escorts join them,forming a running formation.During training,Yao Ying runs in front,Yachi is on Youyou's left,and Xiao Yu'er is at the back.Watching them run from behind,the unbreakable formation seems to surround(包围) Youyou;but in fact,all of them are surrounded by the unbreakable force of friendship.
Training is no longer the only purpose of their runs.It also allows them to hang out together as friends.When they go out to eat,Youyou doesn't really like the restaurants that are overly attentive because he's visually impaired,which makes him feel uncomfortable.
Yachi,Yao Ying and Xiao Yu'er all know Youyou well.No matter what they do,how much progress in running is made,and what exciting competitions are waiting,running has allowed them to connect and head into the unknown together,which in itself is a great achievement.
4.What can be inferred when the rope connecting the runner and the pacer relaxes? ______
A. They have different speeds. B. Their rope should be removed.
C. They need further communication. D. Their running pace is harmonious.
5.What does Yachi think of running with the rope? ______

C. It stops him from running faster.
D. It requires him to push the runner.
6.Why does Youyou feel uncomfortable in the restaurants? ______

C. He isn't offered enough care. D. There are too many people there.
7.What is the suitable title for the text? ______

B. Friendship Develops with Competitions
C. An Excellent Running Team Is Being Formed
D. A Visually Impaired Runner Achieves Success

A powerful earthquake hit Morocco on Friday night.The earthquake struck around 11 pm on Friday night.The USGS(US Geological Survey)says that the earthquake had a magnitude of about 6.8.But Morocco's earthquake center recorded the earthquake as being almost twice that strong.
The quake was one of the most powerful ever recorded in Morocco.It's also the country's deadliest earthquake in over 60 years.So far,the earthquake is reported to have killed over 2,680 people.It has injured over 2,500 others.The earthquake was extremely dangerous because it happened at night.Marrakesh is a big city that's popular with tourists.Many of its modern buildings seem to have survived the earthquake.But the old part of the city,called the Medina,was hit hard.The Medina has buildings that are over 1,000 years old.
Outside of Marrakesh,the earthquake caused even more damage.In the Atlas Mountains,the earthquake's center,there are many small villages.Some villages were nearly destroyed.Many of the people in the area live in simple houses made of mud bricks.This is a traditional way of building in Morocco.But it's not strong enough to protect against earthquakes.Many of these houses collapsed.Some of the bricks turned to sand.
Rescue workers have been working hard to save those affected by the quake.In larger cities,rescue efforts seem to be going well
But it has taken a lot longer for help to reach far areas in the mountains.Many of these villages are difficult to get to.The earthquake caused landslides,blocking roads and making these places even more difficult to reach.In some areas,phone and electrical service were also knocked out,leaving these places completely cut off.That means that the local people in some areas far away have had to deal with the situation on their own.
But more help is coming.Some countries have offered teams of experts;others have offered emergency supplies.
8.Why was the earthquake in Morocco especially dangerous according to the text? ______
A. It was the strongest on record.
B. There were too many tourists there.
C. The buildings there were all too old.
D. It happened when people were asleep.
9.What does the underlined word " collapsed" in Paragraph 3 mean? ______
A. Looked beautiful. B. Fell down.
C. Lasted long. D. Stood still.
10.What is Paragraph 5 mainly about? ______
A. Causes of the earthquake.
B. Terrible sights after the earthquake.

D. Survivors' efforts to rebuild the city.
11.Which part of a website can the text appear? ______
A. Culture. B. News. C. Environment. D. Tourism.
D
From 2018 to 2021,about 10 billion snow crabs(蟹)disappeared from the eastern Bering Sea off the coast of Alaska. "It's a fishery disaster in the truest sense of the word, "says.Cody Szuwalski,a fishery biologist.
Usually,as winter's thick sea ice melts(融化),the meltwater settles on the seafloor,creating a cold-water pool with temperatures below 2°Celsius on the eastern Bering Sea shelf,which makes perfect habitat for snow crabs.But a sea heat wave in the area in 2018 and 2019 prevented the usual amount of sea ice from forming.
After a close study,Szuwalski and his colleagues have found the water temperature probably didn't kill the crabs directly,as snow crabs in laboratories can survive in waters up to 12 ℃.Instead,the crabs might have died from hunger.According to the study,the food demand of snow crabs in labs almost double as water temperature rises from 0 ℃ to 3 ℃.The crab population reached historic highs in 2018 thanks to great ocean conditions for newborn crabs around 2010.As a result,the crowded crabs probably needed more food,but because of the smaller foraging (觅食)area,they had even fewer resources to sink their claws into.
"It's just something we didn't expect,but now we have to live with, "says Christopher Harley,an ocean scientist.Such effects of ocean heat waves are likely to go beyond snow crabs.In answer to climate change,ecosystems in northern areas of the earth,such as Alaska's,are changing more rapidly than anywhere else.Scientists can try to help predict(预测) and prepare for changes in the future with the aid of former research. "But the future increasingly holds events that have never happened on record before,like the drop in the snow crab population, "Harley says.
12.Which of the following is suitable for snow crabs to live according to the text? ______
A. Quiet warm water. B. Large water area.
C. Cold deep water. D. Cold sea surface.
13.What probably directly causes the disappearance of more snow crabs? ______
A. Polluted seawater.
B. Inability to fight diseases.
C. Change in water temperature.
D. Too little food for so many snow crabs.
14.Why are ecosystems in northern areas of the earth changing? ______
A. To adapt to climate change.
B. To force people to reduce activities.
C. To avoid destruction from humans.
D. To remove environmental pollution.
15.What does Harley mean when it comes to the prediction for the future based on former research? ______
A. It is useless. B. It is challenging.
C. It is economical. D. It is rewarding.

(2)推理判断题。根据倒数第二段Unlike the proper Metro trains,which are very simple,with clear signs and maps,minibuses might be a bit confusing for first-time visitors. (普通的地铁非常简单,有清晰的标志和地图,而小巴可能会让第一次来的人有点困惑)可知,去瓦哈卡的小巴可能缺乏明显的标志。故选B。
(3)推理判断题。根据第二段Trains are clean,on schedule,and easy to use. (火车干净、准时、方便使用)以及最后一段The Tokyo subway system is the major public transport,which is shockingly clean and timely. (东京的地铁系统是主要的公共交通工具,它的干净和及时令人震惊)可知,爱丁堡和东京的主要公共交通共同之处在于既干净又准时。因此B.They are clean and on time.(他们既干净又准时。)符合题意。故选B。
这是一篇应用文。文章主要介绍了四个公共交通便利的最佳旅游城市。
一、速读全文,了解大意知主题。
阅读能力一般指阅读速度和理解能力两个方面。阅读速度是阅读最基本的能力,考生必须在十分有限的时间内运用略读、扫读、跳读等技巧快速阅读,搜寻关键词、主题句,捕捉时空、顺序、情节、人物、观点,并且理清文章脉络,把握语篇实质。
二、看题干,带着问题读文章。
首先要掌握问题的类型,客观信息题可以从文章中直接找到答案;而主观判断题考查的是对文章的感情基调等,这类题必须经过对作者的态度、意图以及对整篇文章进行深一层的推理等。其次,了解试题题干以及各个选项所包含的信息,然后有针对性地对文章进行扫读,对有关信息进行快速定位。此法加强了阅读的针对性,提高了做题的准确率。
三、逻辑推理,做好深层理解题。
在实际阅读中,有时作者并未把意图说出来,阅读者要根据字面意思,通过语篇逻辑关系,研究细节的暗示,推敲作者的态度,理解文章的寓义。要求读者对文字的表面信息进行分析、挖掘和逻辑推理,不能就事论事,以偏概全。推理题在提问中常用的词有:infer,imply,suggest,indicate等。
四、猜词悟义,扫除阅读拦路虎。
猜词是应用英语的重要能力。它不但需要准确无误地理解上下文,而且要有较大的泛读量,掌握或认识较多的课外词汇。我们要学会"顺藤摸瓜",通过构词,语法,定义,同位,对比,因果,常识,上下文等线索确定词义。
4~7.【答案】D、B、B、A
【解析】(1)推理判断题。根据第二段When Yachi's and Youyou's speeds are the same,the rope will naturally relax. (当 Yachi 和 Youyou 的速度相同时,绳子会自然放松。)可推断,绳子处于松弛状态说明他们的跑步节奏一致。故选 D。
(2)推理判断题。根据第三段This is a matter of achievements for both of us.Not only am I helping him improve,he is also pushing me to hold on and be strong(这是我们双方的成就。我不仅帮助他进步,他也在鼓励我要坚持下去,要坚强)可推知, Yachi 认为这是一件双赢的事。故选B。
(3)细节理解题。根据第五段中When they go out to eat,Youyou doesn't really like the restaurants that are overly attentive because he's visually impaired,which makes him feel uncomfortable.(当他们出去吃饭时,Youyou 并不喜欢那些因为他的视力障碍而过于周到的餐馆,这让他感到不舒服。)可知, Youyou 感到不舒服是因为他没有被正常对待。故选B。
(4)标题归纳题。根据第二段Yachi has been pacing(领跑)for Youyou for several years.They crashed into each other repeatedly when they first tried running with the 30cm-long rope between them.(Yachi已经为Youyou领跑好几年了。当他们第一次尝试在他们之间用30厘米长的绳子奔跑时,他们多次撞在一起。)并通读全文可知文章讲述了领跑员与跑步者共同训练并建立了友谊的故事。A项"Pacing Is More ThanJust Running(节奏不仅仅是跑步)"最适合作文章的标题,说明两个人之间达成的默契。故选A。
这是一篇说明文。文章讲述了 Youyou 是一位视障跑步者,他与领跑员共同训练,最终达到一致的跑步节奏,两人共同进步并因此建立了友谊的故事。
做这类题材阅读理解时要求考生对文章通读一遍,做题时结合原文和题目有针对性的找出相关语句进行仔细分析,结合选项选出正确答案。
8~11.【答案】D、B、C、B
【解析】(1)细节理解题。根据第二段The earthquake was extremely dangerous because it happened at night.(这次地震非常危险,因为它发生在夜间。)可知,地震极其危险是因为发生在晚上,这是人们睡觉的时间。故选D。
(2)词义猜测题。根据第三段划线词前But it's not strong enough to protect against earthquakes.(但它的强度不足以抵御地震。)和划线词后 Some of the bricks turned to sand.(一些砖块变成了沙子。)可知,划线词所意为"倒塌"。A.Looked beautiful.看起来很漂亮;B.Fell down.倒塌;C.Lasted long.持续很长时间;D.Stood still.站着不动。故选B。
(3)段落大意题。根据第五段But it has taken a lot longer for help to reach far areas in the mountains.Many of these villages are difficult to get to.The earthquake caused landslides,blocking roads and making these places even more difficult to reach.In some areas,phone and electrical service were also knocked out,leaving these places completely cut off.That means that the local people in some areas far away have had to deal with the situation on their own.(但是,帮助到达山区偏远地区需要更长的时间。许多这样的村庄很难到达。地震导致山体滑坡,道路堵塞,使这些地方更加难以到达。在一些地区,电话和电力服务也被中断,使这些地方完全被切断。这意味着,在一些遥远地区的当地人不得不自己处理这种情况。)可知本段主要讲述救援中遇到的困难。故选C。
(4)文章出处题。文章介绍了在摩洛哥发生的一场强震,是一则新闻报道。所以应该出现在网站的"新闻"部分。故选B。
这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了在摩洛哥发生的一场强震,此次地震造成了严重损失。震中位置偏远,给救援工作带来不便,当地人民进行自救,外界救援也在赶来。
做这类题材阅读理解时要求考生对文章通读一遍,做题时结合原文和题目有针对性的找出相关语句进行仔细分析,结合选项选出正确答案。
12~15.【答案】C、D、A、B
【解析】(1)细节理解题。根据第二段Usually,as winter's thick sea ice melts(融化),the meltwater settles on the seafloor,creating a cold-water pool with temperatures below 2°Celsius on the eastern Bering Sea shelf,which makes perfect habitat for snow crabs. (通常,随着冬季厚厚的海冰融化,融水沉积在海底,在白令海东部陆架上形成了一个温度低于 2摄氏度的冷水池,这是雪蟹的完美栖息地。)可知,冰冷的深水适合雪蟹生存。故选C。
(2)推理判断题。根据第三段After a close study,Szuwalski and his colleagues have found the water temperature probably didn't kill the crabs directly,as snow crabs in laboratories can survive in waters up to 12 ℃.Instead,the crabs might have died from hunger.According to the study,the food demand of snow crabs in labs almost double as water temperature rises from 0 ℃ to 3 ℃.The crab population reached historic highs in 2018 thanks to great ocean conditions for newborn crabs around 2010.As a result,the crowded crabs probably needed more food,but because of the smaller foraging (觅食)area,they had even fewer resources to sink their claws into.(经过仔细研究,Szuwalski和他的同事们发现水温可能并没有直接杀死螃蟹,因为实验室里的雪蟹可以在高达12℃的水中生存。相反,螃蟹可能是死于饥饿。根据这项研究,当水温从0℃上升到3℃时,实验室里的雪蟹对食物的需求量几乎翻了一番。螃蟹数量在2018年达到历史最高水平,这要归功于2010年左右新生螃蟹的良好海洋条件。因此,拥挤的螃蟹可能需要更多的食物,但由于觅食区域更小,它们的爪子可以进入的资源更少。)可知食物量不足导致更多雪蟹消失。故选D。
(3)细节理解题。根据最后一段In answer to climate change,ecosystems in northern areas of the earth,such as Alaska's,are changing more rapidly than anywhere else. (为了应对气候变化,阿拉斯加等地球北部地区的生态系统变化比其他任何地方都快。)可知,地球北部地区生态系统的变化是为了适应气候变化。故选 A。
(4)推理判断题。根据最后一段Scientists can try to help predict (预测)and prepare for changes in the future with the aid of former research. 'But the future increasingly holds events that have never happened on record before,like the drop in the snow crab population, 'Harley says. (科学家可以借助以往的研究成果来帮助预测,并为未来的变化做好准备。 Harley 说:"但未来将越来越多地发生以前从未发生过的事件,比如雪蟹数量的下降。 ")可推知,Harley 的意思是:借助以往的研究成果来预测未来的变化是有挑战性的。故选B。
这是一篇说明文。主题语境是人与自然。在白令海东部,雪蟹的数量急剧下降,文章分析了可能的原因。
做这类题材阅读理解时要求考生对文章通读一遍,做题时结合原文和题目有针对性的找出相关语句进行仔细分析,结合选项选出正确答案。
16~20.【答案】D、F、G、C、A
【解析】(1)联系上文题。根据上一句Learning anything by sitting in the comfort of your home can be very easy and at the same time,there will not be any pressure to complete some task or anything like that.(坐在舒适的家里学习任何东西都很容易,同时完成一些任务或类似的事情也不会有任何压力。)可知,本句的内容应该是基于在家学习的好处引出本文的主题,所以本句应该涉及在家学习英语。 D项Similarly,maybe you are planning to learn English at home(同样,也许你打算在家学习英语)符合语境。故选D。
(2)语境衔接题。根据小标题Watching English movies and shows(看英语电影和节目)可知,本段内容涉及看电影和节目。空格前讲述了看电影;空格及空格后应该涉及看节目。F项You can also watch English interviews of successful people(你也可以观看成功人士的英语访谈)符合语境。故选F。
(3)联系上文题。根据上一句It may sound uncomfortable at the beginning.(一开始可能听起来不舒服)可知,本句应该说明这个情况会得到改善,这两句构成转折关系。G项But over time your accent and pronunciation will be improved by practicing(但随着时间的推移,你的口音和发音会通过练习得到改善)符合语境。故选G。
(4)语境衔接题。根据上一句Having basic grammar knowledge is crucial (至关重要的). (有基本的语法知识是至关重要的)可知,空格处具体讲述学习语法的必要性是什么;再根据下一句If you don't have any grammar knowledge,you may find it difficult to build proper sentences(如果你没有任何语法知识,你可能会发现很难建立正确的句子)可知,空格处指出学习语法有助于使句子准确。C项It helps in building correct sentences(它有助于建立正确的句子)符合语境。故选C。
(5)标题选择题。本空是小标题。根据本段的including your facial expressions(包括你的面部表情)和Practicing your speech in front of the mirror can help you to encourage your confidence. (在镜子前练习你的演讲可以帮助你增强自信。)可知,本段的内容是对着镜子练习。A项Speaking in front of the mirror(对着镜子说话)符合语境。故选A。
这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了几个在家学习英语的方法。
七选五解题时
1.可以先看选项。跟完形填空不一样,七选五的答案选项较少,并且给出的都是句子,因此,我们可以通过句子的完整性或者句子后面的标点符号来判断该句在文章中的位置。另外,通过阅读选项,有可能找出跟其它选项表达完全不同意思的句子,这样的话我们就可以直接将该选项排除。
2.再看空前空后
由于七选五空出的是整个句子,而这些句子与句子之间,必然有一种联系,因此我们可以通过选项中某个名词或动词跟空前或空后的一致性或者相关性来确定这两个句子之间有一种关联性,从而选择正确的答案。
3.注意代词或定冠词
在做这类题目的时候,一定要注意句子中出现的人称代词或者指示代词,因为我们知道,代词是指代一个名词或者一个句子的,然后通过代词在句子中所做的成分我们可以推断出它指代的句子的类型,我们要做的就是从选项中找这类句型就可以了。
4.注意特殊疑问词
如果选项中或空前出现特殊疑问词,一定要把这句话仔细读几遍,因为对于不同特殊疑问词的回答方式是不一样的,比如对why的回答,后面要有because等表原因的词,对when的回答,后面要有表时间的状语,对where的回答,后面要有表地点的名词,对how的回答,后面要有方式状语等。
5.注意连词
