Look, I’m not a happy crier. I might cry at songs about leaving and missing someone; I might cry at books where things don’t work out; I might cry at movies where someone dies. I’ve just never really understood why people get all choked up over happy, inspirational things. But Michelle Obama’s kindness and empathy (同情) changed that. This book had me in tears for all the right reasons.
This is not really a book about politics, though political experiences obviously do come into it. It’s a shame that some will dismiss this book because of a difference in political opinion, when it is really about a woman’s life. About growing up poor and black on the South Side of Chicago; about getting married and struggling to maintain that marriage; about motherhood; about being thrown into an amazing and terrifying position.
I hate words like “inspirational” because they’ve become so overdone and cheese (俗气的), but I just have to say it — Michelle Obama is an inspiration. I had the privilege of seeing her speak at The Forum in Inglewood, and she is one of the warmest, funniest, smartest, down-to-earth people I have ever seen in this world.
And yes, I know we present what we want the world to see, but I truly do think it’s genuine. I think she is someone who really cares about people — especially kids — and wants to give them better lives and opportunities.
She’s obviously intelligent, but she also doesn’t gussy up her words. She talks straight, with an openness and honesty rarely seen. She’s been one of the most powerful women in the world, she’s been a graduate of Princeton and Harvard Law School, she’s had her own successful career, and yet she has remained throughout that same girl — Michelle Robinson — from a working class family in Chicago.
I don’t think there’s anyone who wouldn’t benefit from reading this book.
24. What is the main focus of Michelle’s book
A. Her political experiences and opinions. B. Her personal life and experiences.
C. Her achievements as a powerful woman. D. Her efforts to motivate others.
25. Why does the author dislike the word “inspirational”
A. It is overused and insincere. B. It reminds them of cheese books.
C. It is associated with political opinions. D. It is inapplicable to Michelle Obama.
26. What does the underlined phrase “gussy up” in paragraph 5 mean
A. Forgets. B. Regret. C. Beautify. D. Swallow.
27. Which of the following can best describe Michelle Obama’s character
A. Bossy and aggressive B. Humble and honest.
C. Distant and image-loving. D. Ambitious and career-driven.
C
A new study in the journal of Tourism Analysis shows frequent travelers are happier with their lives than people who don’t travel at all
Chun-Chu Chen, an assistant professor at Washington State University, conducted a survey to find out why some individuals travel more frequently than others and whether or not travel and tourism experiences have a lasting effect on happiness and wellness.
The results of his analysis show individuals who pay more attention to tourism-related information and frequently discuss their travel plans with friends are more likely to go on regular vacations than those who aren’t constantly thinking about their next trip. Additionally, participants in the survey who reported regularly traveling at least 75 miles away from home also reported being about 7% happier when asked about their overall well-being than those who reported traveling very rarely or not at all.
“While things like work, family life and friends play a bigger role in overall reports of well-being. The accumulation (积累) of travel experiences’ does appear to have a small yet noticeable effect on self-reported life satisfaction,” Chen said.
Participants in the study were asked about the importance of travel in their lives, how much time they spent looking into and planning future vacations, and how many trips they went on over a year. They were also asked about their life satisfaction. Out of the 500 survey participants, a little over half reported going on more than four pleasurable trips a year. Only 7% of respondents did not take any vacations.
As travel restrictions (限制) due to COVID-19 pandemic begin to relax in the future, the research could have important effects on both tourists and the tourism industry. Based on the results of the study, Chen said travel companies, resorts and even airlines, could launch social media campaigns, such as creating signs about the scientific benefits of vacation, to spark people’s interest in discussing their opinions about travel.
28. What is the benefit of frequent travelling according to the study
A. Getting more tourism information. B. Making more friends.
C. Bettering tourism industry. D. Improving one’s well-being.
29. What does Paragraph 5 mainly talk about
A. Why the professor carried out the study.
B. How the participants felt about the survey.
C. What the participants were interviewed about.
D. What the participants panned to do in the future.
30. What can we infer from the last paragraph
A. Tourism industry should improve their service.
B. The results of the study will benefit tourism industry.
C. COVID-19 pandemic will be more serious in the future.
D. People will live a happier life after COVID-19 pandemic.
31. Which of the following can be the best title for the text

After leaving the book at Mr. Emerson’s, I returned through the woods. And entering SleepyHollow (睡谷), I found a lady lying near the road which bends along its verge (边缘). It was Margaret herself. She had been there the whole afternoon, reading and thinking deeply about something. She had a book in her hand, with a strange name, which I did not understand and have forgotten.
She said that nobody had broken her state of being alone, and was saying that nobody ever visited SleepyHollow when we saw a whole group of people entering the greatly respected area. Most of them followed a path which led them far from us. But an old man passed near us and smiled to see Margaret lying on the ground, and me sitting by her side. He made some remark about the beauty of the afternoon, and disappeared himself into the dark area of the wood.
Then we continued to talk about Autumn, the pleasures of getting lost in the woods, the black birds, whose voices Margaret had heard, the experiences of early childhood, whose influence remains upon the character after the remembering of them has passed away, the sight of mountains from a distance, and the view from their tops of mountains.
In the middle of our talk, we heard footsteps above us. While the visitor was still hidden among the trees, he called to Margaret, of whom he had seen. Then he walked out of the green forest. It was Mr. Emerson who had found no better way of spending Sunday than to walk among the woods. He appeared to have had a pleasant time, for he said that there were Muses (缪斯) in the woods today and very quiet voices to be heard in the light wind.
It being now nearly six o’clock, we said goodbye, Mr. Emerson and Margaret towards their home, and I towards mine, where my little wife was very busy getting tea.
32. What did Margaret stay to do in SleepyHollow for the whole afternoon
A. To read a book. B. To play with water.
C. To enjoy herself. D. To chat with herself.
33. What did Margaret talk about together with the author
A. One’s character. B. Fish’s voice.
C. People’s views. D. Margaret’s childhood.
34. What may be the best way of spending a rest of day according to Mr. Emerson
A. Drinking tea. B. Staying at home.
C. Walking in the woods. D. Talking about interesting topics.
35. What did the author think of staying at SleepyHollow
A. Boring. B. Pleasant C. Disappointing. D. Frightening.

For most people, adopting (收养) a pet is one of the best decisions that they can ever make in their lives. In addition to giving an animal a home and a loving family, the owner will find the company of a pet brings more happiness than expected.
For someone like Maria, having a pet was very suitable. She was all alone after moving to a new apartment in Brazil, which made her feel lonely.
So when she found a cute black puppy named Chips, she knew she had to take him home. Maria thought that Chips would be able to fill the emptiness that she had been experiencing from living all alone.
Maria was right. Once she took the puppy home, they immediately bonded. However, as Maria had to work during the day, she was worried about leaving Chips home alone in her apartment. She was also worried that his crying would upset her neighbors.
One night, when she returned home, outside her door was a package with a folded note attached to it. Maria knew that she was in trouble. She hoped that she would not be evicted (驱逐) from her new apartment because of Chips. She loved Chips so much, and she was afraid that she might have to get rid of him because he made too much noise whenever she was away. Maria was frightened and wondered who could have left it at the door because she had little contact with the people in the building except her neighbor, Angelia. In fact, they only said hello few times.
However, when she noticed the names on the folded note, she found that it wasn’t addressed to her but to her dog, Chips, and that it was “written” by another dog named Corote. Maria opened the package first and found a few toys for pets.
注意：续写词数应为150个左右。
Curious, Maria opened the note and started reading it.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
With Chips following her, Maria knocked at Angelia’s door.

She had been there the whole afternoon, reading and thinking deeply about something. She had a book in her hand, with a strange name, which I did not understand and have forgotten.
She said that nobody had broken her state of being alone, and was saying that nobody ever visited SleepyHollow when we saw a whole group of people entering the greatly respected area. Most of them followed a path which led them far from us. But an old man passed near us and smiled to see Margaret lying on the ground, and me sitting by her side. He made some remark about the beauty of the afternoon, and disappeared himself into the dark area of the wood.
Then we continued to talk about Autumn, the pleasures of getting lost in the woods, the black birds, whose voices Margaret had heard, the experiences of early childhood, whose influence remains upon the character after the remembering of them has passed away, the sight of mountains from a distance, and the view from their tops of mountains.
In the middle of our talk, we heard footsteps above us. While the visitor was still hidden among the trees, he called to Margaret, of whom he had seen. Then he walked out of the green forest. It was Mr. Emerson who had found no better way of spending Sunday than to walk among the woods. He appeared to have had a pleasant time, for he said that there were Muses (缪斯) in the woods today and very quiet voices to be heard in the light wind.
It being now nearly six o’clock, we said goodbye, Mr. Emerson and Margaret towards their home, and I towards mine, where my little wife was very busy getting tea.
32. What did Margaret stay to do in SleepyHollow for the whole afternoon
A. To read a book. B. To play with water.
C. To enjoy herself. D. To chat with herself.
33. What did Margaret talk about together with the author
A. One’s character. B. Fish’s voice.
C. People’s views. D. Margaret’s childhood.
34. What may be the best way of spending a rest of day according to Mr. Emerson
A. Drinking tea. B. Staying at home.
C. Walking in the woods. D. Talking about interesting topics.
35. What did the author think of staying at SleepyHollow
A. Boring. B. Pleasant C. Disappointing. D. Frightening.
【答案】32. A 33. D 34. C 35. B

根据空前“For example, if there are 10 cartons of milk and a consumer takes one, it will be registered when it is scanned at the cash counter, so the store owner knows there are nine left.(例如，如果有10盒牛奶，消费者拿了一盒，在收银台扫描时就会进行登记，这样店主就知道还剩下9盒。)”可知，条形码可以帮助店主了解商品的存货。选项G“It allows the first digitization in the control of the goods for sale.(它允许在销售商品的控制方面实现第一次数字化。)”延续上文内容，指出条形码可以帮助店主了解商品的存货，从而达到对商品的控制。故选G。
【40题详解】

【导语】这是一篇说明文。主要介绍了一些公司正在开发实验室培育的牛肉、猪肉、家禽和海鲜，如果这种人造肉被广泛使用，可以减少许多饲养作为食物的动物的残忍待遇，也可以大大降低生产肉类的环境成本。
【56题详解】
考查名词。句意：实验室培育的肉类正在将这种想象变为现实。由空前that为代词可知，此处为名词形式，构成that imagination“那种想象”名词短语，同时也符合动词短语turn sth into sth“把某物变为某物”。故填imagination。
【57题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：实验室培育的肉，也被称为人造肉，可以减少对饲养动物的残酷对待。分析句子可知，此处为非谓语动词作后置定语修饰lab-grown meat，lab-grown meat和call为被动关系，所以为过去分词形式。故填called。
【58题详解】
考查定语从句。句意：实验室培育的肉，也被称为人造肉，可以减少对饲养动物的残酷对待。分析句子可知，此处为关系代词which/that引导的定语从句，先行词为animals，关系词替代先行词在从句中作主语成分。故填which/that。
【59题详解】
考查副词。句意：它还可以大大降低肉类生产的环境成本。由副词修饰动词可知，此处为副词greatly作状语修饰动词reduce。故填greatly。
【60题详解】
考查动词时态和语态。句意：这种肉是通过首先从动物身上提取肌肉样本来生产。分析句子可知，此处为谓语动词的填入，根据上下文时态可知，此处为一般现在时，主语The meat为不可数名词和动词produce为被动关系，所以为一般现在时的被动语态结构。故填is produced。
【61题详解】
考查动词不定式。句意：据说，一头牛的肌肉样本可以生产出足够做8万个汉堡的肉。分析句子可知，此处为固定短语enough to do“足够做某事”，满足句意要求，所以此处为动词不定式形式。故填to make。
【62题详解】
考查固定短语。句意：但是，人造肉类必须克服一些困难，比如降低成本，并在肉类上市之前证明其安全性。分析句子可知，此处为固定短语a number of“大量的，许多”，满足句意要求。故填a。
【63题详解】
考查介词。句意：但是，人造肉类必须克服一些困难，比如降低成本，并在肉类上市之前证明其安全性。根据句意以及空前safety和空后the meat为名词可知，此处为介词of表示“……的”，构成前后名词的所属关系。故填of。
【64题详解】
考查名词复数形式。句意：好消息是，尽管面临所有这些挑战，人造肉公司仍在继续努力。由空前these可知，此处为名词复数形式作宾语。故填challenges。
【65题详解】
考查形容词比较级。句意：如果他们能成功，人造肉可以使我们的生活方式比以前更环保、更有道德。由and连接的more ethical以及than可知，此处为形容词比较级形式。故填greener。

67. 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
For most people, adopting (收养) a pet is one of the best decisions that they can ever make in their lives. In addition to giving an animal a home and a loving family, the owner will find the company of a pet brings more happiness than expected.
For someone like Maria, having a pet was very suitable. She was all alone after moving to a new apartment in Brazil, which made her feel lonely.
So when she found a cute black puppy named Chips, she knew she had to take him home. Maria thought that Chips would be able to fill the emptiness that she had been experiencing from living all alone.
Maria was right. Once she took the puppy home, they immediately bonded. However, as Maria had to work during the day, she was worried about leaving Chips home alone in her apartment. She was also worried that his crying would upset her neighbors.
One night, when she returned home, outside her door was a package with a folded note attached to it. Maria knew that she was in trouble. She hoped that she would not be evicted (驱逐) from her new apartment because of Chips. She loved Chips so much, and she was afraid that she might have to get rid of him because he made too much noise whenever she was away. Maria was frightened and wondered who could have left it at the door because she had little contact with the people in the building except her neighbor, Angelia. In fact, they only said hello few times.
However, when she noticed the names on the folded note, she found that it wasn’t addressed to her but to her dog, Chips, and that it was “written” by another dog named Corote. Maria opened the package first and found a few toys for pets.
注意：续写词数应为150个左右。
Curious, Maria opened the note and started reading it.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
With Chips following her, Maria knocked at Angelia’s door.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】 Curious, Maria opened the note and started reading it. The note, which was actually written by her neighbor Angelia in Corote’s voice, said she’d noticed Chips crying a lot. She wanted to give Chips some toys to play with so that he wouldn’t feel alone when Maria was away. Besides, Chips was invited to play with Corote. Maria was deeply moved and felt relieved after reading the note. Instead of expressing discontent, her kind neighbor was really understanding and tried to offer support. Maria felt she needed to meet Angelia and her dog.
With Chips following her, Maria knocked at Angelia’s door. The door opened and Maria saw Angelia, smiling at her. Corote, Angelia’s dog, followed her and stared at Chips happily. The two dogs immediately hit it off. A pleasant atmosphere was created when Maria and Angelia were chatting. After that, the two pairs regularly played together. In the process, Maria also got valuable advice from Angelia. Through their shared experiences and the joy their pets brought them, Maria and her neighbor formed a deep connection and their lives became very colorful and meaningful.
【解析】
【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了Maria搬进新公寓后收养了狗狗Chips，Chips填补了她独自生活的空虚，但Maria白天要工作，她担心狗狗会吵到邻居，一天晚上Maria发现门外有个包裹和纸条，打开纸条后发现是写给Chips的，包裹里也放了一些玩具。
【详解】1.段落续写：
①由第一段首句内容“好奇的Maria打开纸条，开始读起来。”可知，第一段可描写Maria读纸条内容，收到同样养狗的邻居Angelia的邀请。
②由第二段首句内容“Chips跟在她后面，Maria敲了敲Angelia的门”可知，第二段可描写Maria带着狗狗和邻居Angelia见面，并建立了深厚的友谊。
2.续写线索：读纸条——感动——和邻居见面——愉快——两人建立深厚的联系

行为类
①表达：express/voice

[高分句型2] She wanted to give Chips some toys to play with so that he wouldn’t feel alone when Maria was away.（由so that引导目的状语从句和when引导的时间状语从句）
