Parkinson’s is a progressive brain disease which leads to shaky hands and slow movement, and there is no cure. Tai Chi, a traditional Chinese martial art that combines (结合) slow, gentle movements with deep breathing and relaxation, may be an effective means of reducing the suffering. Recently, the researchers say that those who practised the martial art twice a week had fewer complications (并发症) and better quality of life than those who didn’t. Experts say the findings back up previous studies on the benefits of exercise for those with Parkinson’s.
The study, from Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine, monitored the health of hundreds of Parkinson’s patients for up to five years. One group of 147 people practised regular Tai Chi while another group of 187 did not. The researchers found that the disease progressed more slowly in the Tai Chi group on measurements of symptoms (症状), movement and balance. This group also saw fewer falls, less back pain and dizziness, with memory and concentration problems also lower than in the other group. At the same time, sleep and quality of life continuously improved.
Prof. Alastair Noyce, professor in neurology and neuroepidemiology at Queen Mary University of London, called it “an important study”—the positive effects on aspects of motor (运动的) and non-motor functions are impressive — but said there were limitations in its design, and more tests were needed.
“We already recommend Tai Chi, as well as other forms of exercise, but understanding which forms of exercise are most beneficial is an important goal to improve the long-term management of patients,” he said.
4. Why was the study conducted
A. To find a cure for Parkinson’s disease.
B. To improve the sleep quality of Parkinson’s patients.
C. To remove the misunderstanding of the previous studies.
D To research the benefits of Tai Chi for those with Parkinson’s.
5. Which of the following is not the researchers’ finding
A. Concentration problem was lower in the Tai Chi group.
B. The disease progressed more slowly in the Tai Chi group.
C. Patients in the non-Tai Chi group continuously fell down.
D. Back pain and dizziness were relieved in the Tai Chi group.
6. What can we learn from Prof. Alastair Noyce’s words
A. Tai Chi should be given more preference.
B. Finding the most beneficial exercise is of importance.
C. It is unnecessary to do more related studies.
D. Improve the long-term management of patients is impossible.
7. What is Prof. Alastair Noyce’s attitude towards the study
A. Confused. B. Doubtful. C. Positive. D. Worried.

While screen time is known to affect sleep, new research suggests that interactive (互动的) activities, such as texting friends or playing video games, put off and reduce the time spent asleep to a greater degree than passive (被动的) screen time like watching television, especially for teens.
The team studied the daytime screen-based activities of 475 teenagers using daily surveys. They asked the teens how many hours they had spent that day communicating with friends through social media and how many hours they spent playing video games, surfing the internet and watching television or videos. Finally, the researchers asked if they had joined in any of these activities in the hour before bed.
Next, the team measured their sleep time for one week. The researchers found that the teens spent an average of two hours per day communicating with friends via social media, about 1.3 hours playing video games, less than an hour surfing the internet and about 1.7 hours watching television or videos. For every hour throughout the day that they used screens to communicate with friends, they fell asleep about 11 minutes later averagely. For every hour to play video games, they fell asleep about 9 minutes later. Those who talked, texted or played games in the hour before bed lost the most sleep: about 30 minutes later.
Interestingly, David, lead author of the study, said the team found no obvious relations between passive screen-based activities and sleep. “It could be that passive activities are less mentally exciting than interactive activities,” said Anne, co-author of the study. “It’s a tricky situation,” she said. “These screen tools are really important to everyone nowadays, so it’s hard to put a limit on them, but if you’re really looking out for a teenager’s health and well-being, you might consider limiting the more interactive activities, especially in the hour before bed.”
8. Which of the following belongs to interactive screen activities
A. Seeing movies. B. Watching videos.
C. Texting friends. D. Surfing the internet.
9. Who might lose the most sleep according to the text
A. Lucy who watched a three-hour movie before going to bed.
B. Jack who had a 30-minute video chat with his brother before bed.
C. Sam who played computer games for two hours throughout the day.
D. Amy who chatted with her friends on WeChat for one hour in the morning.
10. What does the underlined word “tricky” mean in paragraph 4
A. Frightening. B. Awkward. C. Hopeless. D. Encouraging.
11. What can be a suitable title for the text
A Screen time activities cut down our sleep hours
B. Interactive screen use reduces sleep time in teenagers
C. Passive screen use is better than interactive screen use
D. Parents should prevent children from using social media

Moving around Bogota can be a bit of a Jekyll-or-Hyde experience. On the one hand, the city is infamous (声名狼藉的)for having the world’s worst traffic. Yet, on the other, its cycling infrastructure is considered a good model of sustainable urban mobility, according to the Copenhagenize Index, which ranks bike-friendly cities. The Colombian capital generated a now-international movement in the 1970s called Ciclovia, which sees 1.5 million people cycle across 128km of car-free streets each Sunday morning.
So, when the pandemic reached its shores in mid-March, Bogota Mayor Claudia Lopez, an avid cyclist herself, introduced one of the world’s first plans to encourage bike travel, using traffic cones to create 76 km of temporary lanes.
“Everyone started using a bicycle and they already knew how to get around on one because we have this bike culture thanks to the Ciclovia,” says Carlos Pardo, a local cycling advocate and senior advisor at the New Urban Mobility Alliance. Pardo got involved at the beginning of the pandemic by partnering with a local bikeshare company to provide 400 free e-bikes to health workers. Now, he’s busy persuading the public that the government’s new bike lanes should become permanent fixture (固定设施).
“Some drivers say, ‘you took away our lane’, but we’re saying, we took one car lane and made a two-lane bidirectional bike lane,” he explains. “So, you’re duplicating the effectiveness of the space, and moving more people per hour, per direction.”
Biking has enjoyed a renaissance (复兴) around the world as urban citizens avoid public transport for the relative safety of a two-wheeled commute. Now, many advocates like Pardo are working with local governments in the hope of turning these pandemic-response measures into lasting changes—ones that are more plausible now than ever after lockdowns provided an unprecedented (空前的)opportunities to fast-track infrastructure trials. The results of these urban planning experiments could not only radically shape the way we commute across global cities, but also make them more adaptable to future shocks.
12. What can best illustrate the underlined sentence
A. Much knowledge that is of help in learning about a new place.
B. A mixed feeling that is too confusing to express themselves.
C. An understanding that everything has both advantages and disadvantages.
D. An idea that human beings are born somewhere between good and evil.
13. What was NOT the cause of the popularity of cycling in Bogota
A. The outbreak of the pandemic in mid-March.
B. The worldwide bike culture dating back to the 1970s.
C. The government’s support for the temporary bike lanes.
D. The local bike company’s contribution to health workers.
14. What factor is likely to stop the change of bike-friendly, slow streets
A. The increasing number of cyclists. B. Duplicated effectiveness of road use.
C. A well-rounded city expansion plan. D. The growth of car ownership.
15. Which section of the newspaper includes articles of this sort
A. Urban life. B. Politics. C. Sports D. Advice column.

When we think about lives filled with meaning, we often focus on people whose grand contributions benefited humanity. Abraham Lincoln, Martin Luther King, Jr., and Nelson Mandela surely felt they had a worthwhile life. But how about us ordinary people, burying ourselves in a(n) ____21____ existence
Many scholars ____22____ a subjectively meaningful life to three factors: the feeling that one’s life makes sense (coherence), the possession of clear and satisfying long-term goals (purpose) and the belief that one’s life matters in the overall scheme of things (____23____ mattering).
But we believe there is another element to consider. Think about the first butterfly you stop to admire after a long winter. Sometimes existence delivers us small moments of beauty. When people are ____24____ to appreciating such experiences, these moments may enhance how they view their life. We call this element experiential appreciation, which represents the detection of and ____25____ for life’s inherent beauty.

47. 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。
“No matter how hard we try, some things are just not meant to be,” Andrew thought bitterly. He looked down at the hospital bills in his hands and tears filled his eyes. His poor mom had been so ill, and here he was complaining and feeling sorry for himself! He should be praying for her recovery, not crying over a lost, childish dream.
Andrew was nineteen, and as far back as he could remember, he’d wanted to become a software engineer. That dream had become harder to reach after his dad died when Andrew was twelve. His mom had been left to raise him on her own, and it was hard to make ends meet. So Andrew started doing part-time jobs.
Every cent he earned he put away for college. When he was sixteen, he got himself a summer job at a local IT company, where his insight and intelligence caught the owner’s eye. Mr. Lewis, the CEO, made Andrew the assistant of his best and most innovative developer, and the boy thrived (不断成长) on the challenge. He couldn’t wait to go to college!
Unfortunately, when Andrew was in his senior year in high school, his mother became very ill. The usually energetic woman was constantly tired and in pain. She went from doctor to doctor, but no one knew exactly what was wrong with her. They sent her off to do dozens of expensive tests, then shook their heads over the results. Andrew’s mom started getting weaker and weaker, and thinner and thinner until she could barely walk.
Andrew added up the medical bills and was shocked. They owed over $23,000! Andrew pulled out his bank book. He had close to $30,000 in his savings account. He’d painstakingly (艰苦地) saved up for YEARS, so he’d be able to go to college, but his mom’s health was more important.
注意:1. 续写词数应为 150 左右;2. 请按如下格式在相应位置作答。
The next day, Andrew went to see Mr. Lewis.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
That night, Mr. Lewis appeared on Andrew’s home with a great idea.

Parkinson’s is a progressive brain disease which leads to shaky hands and slow movement, and there is no cure. Tai Chi, a traditional Chinese martial art that combines (结合) slow, gentle movements with deep breathing and relaxation, may be an effective means of reducing the suffering. Recently, the researchers say that those who practised the martial art twice a week had fewer complications (并发症) and better quality of life than those who didn’t. Experts say the findings back up previous studies on the benefits of exercise for those with Parkinson’s.
The study, from Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine, monitored the health of hundreds of Parkinson’s patients for up to five years. One group of 147 people practised regular Tai Chi while another group of 187 did not. The researchers found that the disease progressed more slowly in the Tai Chi group on measurements of symptoms (症状), movement and balance. This group also saw fewer falls, less back pain and dizziness, with memory and concentration problems also lower than in the other group. At the same time, sleep and quality of life continuously improved.
Prof. Alastair Noyce, professor in neurology and neuroepidemiology at Queen Mary University of London, called it “an important study”—the positive effects on aspects of motor (运动的) and non-motor functions are impressive — but said there were limitations in its design, and more tests were needed.
“We already recommend Tai Chi, as well as other forms of exercise, but understanding which forms of exercise are most beneficial is an important goal to improve the long-term management of patients,” he said.
4. Why was the study conducted
A. To find a cure for Parkinson’s disease.
B To improve the sleep quality of Parkinson’s patients.
C. To remove the misunderstanding of the previous studies.
D. To research the benefits of Tai Chi for those with Parkinson’s.
5. Which of the following is not the researchers’ finding
A. Concentration problem was lower in the Tai Chi group.
B. The disease progressed more slowly in the Tai Chi group.
C. Patients in the non-Tai Chi group continuously fell down.
D. Back pain and dizziness were relieved in the Tai Chi group.
6. What can we learn from Prof. Alastair Noyce’s words
A. Tai Chi should be given more preference.
B. Finding the most beneficial exercise is of importance.
C. It is unnecessary to do more related studies.
D. Improve the long-term management of patients is impossible.
7. What is Prof. Alastair Noyce’s attitude towards the study
A. Confused. B. Doubtful. C. Positive. D. Worried.

While screen time is known to affect sleep, new research suggests that interactive (互动的) activities, such as texting friends or playing video games, put off and reduce the time spent asleep to a greater degree than passive (被动的) screen time like watching television, especially for teens.
The team studied the daytime screen-based activities of 475 teenagers using daily surveys. They asked the teens how many hours they had spent that day communicating with friends through social media and how many hours they spent playing video games, surfing the internet and watching television or videos. Finally, the researchers asked if they had joined in any of these activities in the hour before bed.
Next, the team measured their sleep time for one week. The researchers found that the teens spent an average of two hours per day communicating with friends via social media, about 1.3 hours playing video games, less than an hour surfing the internet and about 1.7 hours watching television or videos. For every hour throughout the day that they used screens to communicate with friends, they fell asleep about 11 minutes later averagely. For every hour to play video games, they fell asleep about 9 minutes later. Those who talked, texted or played games in the hour before bed lost the most sleep: about 30 minutes later.
Interestingly, David, lead author of the study, said the team found no obvious relations between passive screen-based activities and sleep. “It could be that passive activities are less mentally exciting than interactive activities,” said Anne, co-author of the study. “It’s a tricky situation,” she said. “These screen tools are really important to everyone nowadays, so it’s hard to put a limit on them, but if you’re really looking out for a teenager’s health and well-being, you might consider limiting the more interactive activities, especially in the hour before bed.”
8. Which of the following belongs to interactive screen activities
A. Seeing movies. B. Watching videos.
C. Texting friends. D. Surfing the internet.
9. Who might lose the most sleep according to the text
A. Lucy who watched a three-hour movie before going to bed.
B. Jack who had a 30-minute video chat with his brother before bed.
C. Sam who played computer games for two hours throughout the day.
D. Amy who chatted with her friends on WeChat for one hour in the morning.
10. What does the underlined word “tricky” mean in paragraph 4
A. Frightening. B. Awkward. C. Hopeless. D. Encouraging.
11. What can be a suitable title for the text
A. Screen time activities cut down our sleep hours
B. Interactive screen use reduces sleep time in teenagers
C. Passive screen use is better than interactive screen use
D. Parents should prevent children from using social media
【答案】8. C 9. B 10. B 11. B

Moving around Bogota can be a bit of a Jekyll-or-Hyde experience. On the one hand, the city is infamous (声名狼藉的)for having the world’s worst traffic. Yet, on the other, its cycling infrastructure is considered a good model of sustainable urban mobility, according to the Copenhagenize Index, which ranks bike-friendly cities. The Colombian capital generated a now-international movement in the 1970s called Ciclovia, which sees 1.5 million people cycle across 128km of car-free streets each Sunday morning.
So, when the pandemic reached its shores in mid-March, Bogota Mayor Claudia Lopez, an avid cyclist herself, introduced one of the world’s first plans to encourage bike travel, using traffic cones to create 76 km of temporary lanes.
“Everyone started using a bicycle, and they already knew how to get around on one because we have this bike culture thanks to the Ciclovia,” says Carlos Pardo, a local cycling advocate and senior advisor at the New Urban Mobility Alliance. Pardo got involved at the beginning of the pandemic by partnering with a local bikeshare company to provide 400 free e-bikes to health workers. Now, he’s busy persuading the public that the government’s new bike lanes should become permanent fixture (固定设施).
“Some drivers say, ‘you took away our lane’, but we’re saying, we took one car lane and made a two-lane bidirectional bike lane,” he explains. “So, you’re duplicating the effectiveness of the space, and moving more people per hour, per direction.”
Biking has enjoyed a renaissance (复兴) around the world as urban citizens avoid public transport for the relative safety of a two-wheeled commute. Now, many advocates like Pardo are working with local governments in the hope of turning these pandemic-response measures into lasting changes—ones that are more plausible now than ever after lockdowns provided an unprecedented (空前的)opportunities to fast-track infrastructure trials. The results of these urban planning experiments could not only radically shape the way we commute across global cities, but also make them more adaptable to future shocks.
12. What can best illustrate the underlined sentence
A. Much knowledge that is of help in learning about a new place.
B. A mixed feeling that is too confusing to express themselves.
C. An understanding that everything has both advantages and disadvantages.
D. An idea that human beings are born somewhere between good and evil.
13. What was NOT the cause of the popularity of cycling in Bogota
A. The outbreak of the pandemic in mid-March.
B. The worldwide bike culture dating back to the 1970s.
C. The government’s support for the temporary bike lanes.
D. The local bike company’s contribution to health workers.
14. What factor is likely to stop the change of bike-friendly, slow streets
A. The increasing number of cyclists. B. Duplicated effectiveness of road use.
C. A well-rounded city expansion plan. D. The growth of car ownership.
15. Which section of the newspaper includes articles of this sort
A. Urban life. B. Politics. C. Sports D. Advice column.
【答案】12. C 13. C 14. B 15. A

【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍波哥大有着世界上交通最糟糕的坏名声,然而它的自行车基础设施被认为是可持续的城市交通模式。自冠状病毒爆发以来,随着城市居民避免使用公共交通工具,自行车在世界各地重新流行起来。这些城市规划实验的结果不仅可以从根本上改变我们在全球城市之间的通勤方式,还可以使它们更能适应未来的冲击。
【12题详解】
词义猜测题。根据划线句后“On the one hand, the city is infamous (声名狼藉的) for having the world’s worst traffic. Yet, on the other, its cycling infrastructure is considered a good model of sustainable urban mobility, according to the Copenhagenize Index, which ranks bike-friendly cities. (一方面,这座城市因拥有世界上最糟糕的交通而臭名昭著。然而,另一方面,根据对自行车友好城市进行排名的哥本哈根指数,其自行车基础设施被认为是可持续城市交通的良好典范。)”可知,波哥大有优点和缺点。由此可知划线部分是指“每个事物都有双重性”这种理解,故选C。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“The Colombian capital generated a now-international movement in the 1970s called Ciclovia, which sees 1.5 million people cycle across 128km of car-free streets each Sunday morning.(哥伦比亚首都在 20 世纪 70 年代发起了一项名为 Ciclovia 的国际运动,每周日早上都有 150 万人骑自行车穿越 128 公里的无车街道)”可知,B项“全球自行车文化可以追溯到20世纪70年代”是波哥大自行车运动流行的原因。第二段“So, when the pandemic reached its shores in mid-March, Bogota Mayor Claudia Lopez, an avid cyclist herself, introduced one of the world’s first plans to encourage bike travel, using traffic cones to create 76 km of temporary lanes.(因此,当疫情在 3 月中旬蔓延时,波哥大市长克劳迪娅·洛佩兹(本人也是一名狂热的自行车爱好者)提出了世界上第一个鼓励自行车出行的计划,利用交通锥体修建了 76 公里的临时车道。)”可知,A项“3月中旬,疫情爆发”是波哥大自行车运动流行的原因;第三段“‘Everyone started using a bicycle, and they already knew how to get around on one because we have this bike culture thanks to the Ciclovia,’ says Carlos Pardo, a local cycling advocate and senior advisor at the New Urban Mobility Alliance. Pardo got involved at the beginning of the pandemic by partnering with a local bikeshare company to provide 400 free e-bikes to health workers Now, he’s busy persuading the public that the government’s new bike lanes should become permanent fixture(固定设施).(“每个人都开始使用自行车,他们已经知道如何骑自行车出行,因为我们有了 Ciclovia 的自行车文化,”当地自行车倡导者兼新城市交通联盟高级顾问卡洛斯·帕尔多 (Carlos Pardo) 说道。帕尔多在疫情爆发之初就参与其中,与当地一家自行车共享公司合作,向卫生工作者提供 400 辆免费电动自行车。现在,他正忙着说服公众政府的新自行车道应成为永久设施)”可知,D项“当地自行车公司对卫生工作者的贡献”是波哥大自行车运动流行的原因。故选C。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段““Some drivers say, ‘you took away our lane’, but we’re saying, we took one car lane and made a two-lane bidirectional bike lane,” he explains. “So, you’re duplicating the effectiveness of the space, and moving more people per hour, per direction.”(“有些司机说,‘你夺走了我们的车道’,但我们的意思是,我们占用了一条汽车车道,并开辟了一条双车道双向自行车道,”他解释道。“所以,你正在复制空间的有效性,并且每小时、每个方向运送更多的人。”)”可知,道路使用的重复有效性可能会阻止自行车友好型慢速街道的改变,故选B。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段“The Colombian capital generated a now-international movement in the 1970s called Ciclovia, which sees 1.5 million people cycle across 128km of car-free streets each Sunday morning.(哥伦比亚首都在 20 世纪 70 年代发起了一项名为 Ciclovia 的国际运动,每周日早上都有 150 万人骑自行车穿越 128 公里的无车街道)”可知,文章介绍波哥大有着世界上交通最糟糕的坏名声,然而它的自行车基础设施被认为是可持续的城市交通模式。由此推知,本文最有可能节选自城市生活栏目,故选A。

When we think about lives filled with meaning, we often focus on people whose grand contributions benefited humanity. Abraham Lincoln, Martin Luther King, Jr., and Nelson Mandela surely felt they had a worthwhile life. But how about us ordinary people, burying ourselves in a(n) ____21____ existence
Many scholars ____22____ a subjectively meaningful life to three factors: the feeling that one’s life makes sense (coherence), the possession of clear and satisfying long-term goals (purpose) and the belief that one’s life matters in the overall scheme of things (____23____ mattering).

第二节(满分25分)
47. 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。
“No matter how hard we try, some things are just not meant to be,” Andrew thought bitterly. He looked down at the hospital bills in his hands and tears filled his eyes. His poor mom had been so ill, and here he was complaining and feeling sorry for himself! He should be praying for her recovery, not crying over a lost, childish dream.
Andrew was nineteen, and as far back as he could remember, he’d wanted to become a software engineer. That dream had become harder to reach after his dad died when Andrew was twelve. His mom had been left to raise him on her own, and it was hard to make ends meet. So Andrew started doing part-time jobs.
Every cent he earned he put away for college. When he was sixteen, he got himself a summer job at a local IT company, where his insight and intelligence caught the owner’s eye. Mr. Lewis, the CEO, made Andrew the assistant of his best and most innovative developer, and the boy thrived (不断成长) on the challenge. He couldn’t wait to go to college!
Unfortunately, when Andrew was in his senior year in high school, his mother became very ill. The usually energetic woman was constantly tired and in pain. She went from doctor to doctor, but no one knew exactly what was wrong with her. They sent her off to do dozens of expensive tests, then shook their heads over the results. Andrew’s mom started getting weaker and weaker, and thinner and thinner until she could barely walk.
Andrew added up the medical bills and was shocked. They owed over $23,000! Andrew pulled out his bank book. He had close to $30,000 in his savings account. He’d painstakingly (艰苦地) saved up for YEARS, so he’d be able to go to college, but his mom’s health was more important.
注意:1. 续写词数应为 150 左右;2. 请按如下格式在相应位置作答。
The next day, Andrew went to see Mr. Lewis.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
That night, Mr. Lewis appeared on Andrew’s home with a great idea.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】范文
The next day, Andrew went to see Mr. Lewis. He asked Mr. Lewis if he could have a full-time job at his company. Mr. Lewis looked at him for a long time and said “No!” in an angry voice. Andrew was shocked. He apologized and left as quickly as he could. He went straight to the hospital and paid off the medical bills. His savings account was almost empty, and Mr. Lewis had been rude, but his mother had great news. The new doctor said that his mother’s disease could be treated with medication.
That night, Mr. Lewis appeared on Andrew’s doorstep with a great idea. “Andrew,” he apologized, “I apologize for the way I spoke to you this morning, and I refused your request for a very good reason. You are a bright and talented young man, and I want you to go to college. My company will pay for your tuition, on the condition that you work for me for 5 years after you graduate.” Andrew accepted happily, and then he did well in college and when he graduated, he started to work for Mr. Lewis. The company became more than just the place where Andrew worked; it became his second family.
