In a video from Visit Iceland, a crew is seen working on making a horse-sized keyboard out of massive blocks of wood. The keyboard is then put outside against the gorgeous scenery for the typing horses to reply to emails. Unsurprisingly, the replies are nonsense, with examples listed as "bpnisi.//hihaihf =. sf'. "OutHorse Your Email" is Iceland's latest stunt(噱头)to promote tourism. Visitors can choose a trained horse to type responses to their work emails when they are on holiday.
Due to the pandemic, many workers have transitioned to remote working, finding that the lines between their work and personal lives have become blurred. A survey conducted by Visit Iceland revealed that 59% of people globally now feel as if their boss, colleagues, and customers expect them to reply when on holiday and 41% of people check their work emails between one and four times a day when on holiday. That's why Iceland is assigning emails to its horses, asking them to make replies.
"When visitors travel to Iceland, we want them to fully experience everything our nation has to offer, from breathtaking surroundings to endless landscapes," said the head of Visit Iceland, "Our OutHorse Your Email service lets them do just that. With our world-first service, we hope to appeal to people to disconnect and take a well-deserved, uninterrupted break."
Since "OutHorse Your Email" service was launched, it has got a lot of attention from the Internet. "Is it a ridiculous tourism stunt Sure. But it indeed encourages me to enjoy my trip wholeheartedly," said Thom Dunn, an online user from Canada. Another comment from Hunter Boyce says, "The service sounds interesting, but I don't want to drive my boss mad or be fired."
28. What can we know about the typing horses
A. They are trained to reply to emails. B. They type meaningful emails.
C. They reply to emails to earn food. D. They work with an ordinary keyboard.
29. What does the underlined word "blurred" in paragraph 2 probably mean
A. unclear. B. unimportant. C. controllable. D. adjustable.
30. What's the purpose of "OutHorse Your Email"
A. To reduce people's pressure. B. To fight against the pandemic.
C. To encourage undisturbed trips. D. To improve visitors' work efficiency.
31. What's Hunter Boyce's attitude towards "OutHorse Your Email"
A. ambiguous. B. negative. C. favourable. D. indifferent.
D
When I was nine years old, I was desperately in love with a man who was 40 years my senior. Don't worry; Mickey Dolenz of The Monkees didn't even know I existed because he'd stopped being an actor 20 years earlier. But that didn't stop me from decorating my books with love hearts.
The Monkees were entirely manufactured, but as a product they were a success: they used the media to develop a bond between an audience member and her target. In their TV show, they regularly broke the fourth wall, throwing knowing winks(眨眼)to camera, and shared their funny behind-the-scenes lives. They made us think we knew them, as a friend.
This kind of "parasocial relationship(准社交关系)" has long roots in media. Radio characters like Lonesome Gal started her program with, "Sweetie, I love you," speaking directly to her listeners in the the 1950s. Each individual felt he had her undivided attention. She was an entirely virtual girlfriend, at a time when the word had nothing to do with technology.
Parasocial relationships have become a means to an end in the digital age. now that selling yourself has become a way of life. Using these relationships is how you gain followers, credibility and influence. But once you start to gain a critical mass. the relationship necessarily transforms—at least in the eye of the digital personality. You can speak directly to one fan, or even five. But it's not possible to respond to the 10,000 people who subscribe to your TikTok. What was once a close and friendly relationship turns into a business transaction(交易).
Rising social media stars have to manage themselves and their boundaries. That's one of the most undeveloped skills in the digital age. Today's parasocial relationships are surfing unknown territory, so it is expected that they-we-will make mistakes. And who is there to help when we've put ourselves out there online
32. What do we know about a parasocial relationship
A. It isn't developed without mutual understanding.
B. It isn't healthy or beneficial at all to either side.
C. It is a relationship that enjoys good interaction.
D. It is an imaginary relationship with a celebrity.
33. What do the underlined words "broke the fourth wall" mean in Paragraph 2
A. Stepped down from the stage. B. Interacted with the audience.
C. Removed bricks of the wall. D. Engaged with photographers.
34. What has caused the change of the relationship between fans and Internet celebrities
A. The expansion of digital marketing. B. The intentional ignorance of fans.
C. The increase in the number of fans. D. The lack of communication skills.
35. What is the purpose of the passage
A. To raise public concern. B. To present a scientific study.
C. To give a full explanation. D. To express personal feelings.

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。
A group of boys ran to small parts of mud to play. I joined them. One boy held up a worm(蠕虫), and with an extremely strong pull, he tore the poor creature in half.
How could anyone be so cruel I ran to the nearest playground supervisor(主管人)to report the incident. The supervisor sighed and waved me away. Something had to be done.
When I returned to the mud, I inspected the two halves of the worm and was astonished to find that they were still moving. I quickly picked up the worms and a little extra dirt and put them into my jeans pocket.
A few minutes before lunch. I tiptoed to the bin that held the class's lunch boxes, looking for the one that belonged to the Worm Ripper, the boy who had torn the worm cruelly. Fortunately for me, I recognized it immediately. I looked behind me to be sure no one saw me before slipping the worm pieces inside the plastic baggie that held his apple slices.
I held my breath as the Worm Ripper pulled the apple slices from his lunchbox. When he noticed the worm, he let out a sharp cry, which brought the lunchroom supervisors to him.
I should have felt triumphant(大获全胜的). Instead, my heart pounded in my chest. I knew what I had to do. I walked up to lunch supervisors and admitted, "It was me! I put the worm in his lunchbox."
The Worm Ripper glared in my direction. One supervisor rubbed his back to comfort him, while the other ordered me to go to the headmistress's office.
Headmistress Lehrer was a strict old woman. My best friend Ricky said she would look students in the eye, making them tell her everything bad they had ever done. Then they were punished by writing apologies until their hands fell off. I expected to at least receive a severe scolding(训斥).
注意:

After I told her the truth, with a kind of strange smile on her lips, she went down on her knees. "When I was your age. I got mad at someone for hurting my friend. They apologized, and we became friends, too. I appreciate that you tried to stand up for the worm, but try to keep the creepy-crawlies(小爬虫)outside, okay " said Lehrer. I nodded and turned to leave, thinking I had gotten off easily. I still had my writing hand, and I'd only had to admit one misdeed. "Wait!" the headmistress called. I turned around. "You'll be staying in for break for the next week."
The next day, not allowed to go out for break, i stared out and watched a boy by the mud pile pick up a worn. I fearfully thought what would happen to it since I couldn't be outside to persuade him not to hurt it. He held it by both ends and looked like he was about to pull. Then someone ran across the playground to talk to him. It was the Worm Ripper. After their conversation, the boy gently placed the worm back in the mud. I smiled. Perhaps I had made a difference after all.

M: We got lost coming back. I guess I don't really know this town yet. We took a wrong tum somewhere. And Joseph doesn't know the town at all. So I started giving him directions. But I didn't really know where we were. So we got seriously lost.
W: You could have called.
M: I know I could have. But finally we asked someone where we were. Guess where we ended up.
W: I don't know. Where
M: When we finally decided to ask someone, they told us we were in Grangerfield.
W: Grangerfield! You were in Grangerfield That's a completely different town! How could you drive to a completely different town
M: I don't know. The person we asked had to give us directions to the highway to get back here.
W: Grangerfield is like a dozen miles away from here.
M: I know it is. I don't know how it happened.
W: Hmm, maybe I do.
M: What
W: You were too busy looking at Joseph. and you weren't paying attention to the road. Maybe the next time you go out with him to buy groceries. you'll get lost for even longer. Maybe six hours or so. Hah, hah! See I guessed right. You weren't watching the road at all.
M: No. l wasn't. It's kind of hard to watch the road when Joseph is behind the wheel.
(Text 10)
My first job was in Jessif. in the cast of Poland. I was promised that I wasn't going to have to teach any beginners or any little children because it was my first job. l was promptly given the beginners. On my first day of teaching I was given a book which said, "Ah! Go into the classroom and say hello to the children and they'll all say hello back to you and wave." I walked into a class of five four-year olds followed by all their mothers and grandmothers and I said "Hello" and they all burst into tears. I spent half the lesson trying to get them to say "Hello" to each other and stop them from crying while all the grandmothers stood around and stared at me. I finally finished off my singing Happy Princess Song, all on my own. with crying children to accompany me. It was one of the worst days of my life. I could feel the same with all the children though. because I wanted to sit on the floor and cry with them by the end of it. Then I realized that teaching kids was never going to be my career. I had some other classes as well but quit soon after that and moved onto adults who cry slightly less. Yeah, that was my first teaching experience. Not the best.
部分试题解析
第二部分阅读理解
A
【语篇导读】本篇为应用文, 主要介绍欧洲的特色博物馆。
22. 推理判断题。根据文章National Railway Museum中"Immerse yourself in stories from centuries of railway history and explore a million railway-related objects to know the importance of it during times of war."以及文章Vasa Museum中"The story of the king's beautiful, yet terrifying ship fascinates people of all ages."可知, 这两个博物馆都讲述了关于交通工具的历史故书。
23. 推理判断题。根据"Full of interacting items. Experience life aboard ship in a cabin. Lots to open, press, turn and even design a ship by yourself. "可知人们有很多动手的活动, 故D项符合题意。
B
【语篇导读】本篇为记叙文, 讲述了Jill Bien解救公交车上乘客的英勇事迹。
24. 细节理解题。根据第三段"Everyone on the bus was bouncing around; they were lying in the aisle. I thought, I don't want anybody to get hurt."可知吉尔·布恩首先想到的是乘客的安全。故选B项。
25. 推理判断题。根据第四段"When Jill returned home after the accident, she burst out crying."得知当Jill回到家, 她大哭起来, 脑里不停回想这件事, 可以判断Jill对此事感到后怕。
26. 细节理解题. 从"he hasn't witnessed an act more heroic than Jill's in his 18 years on the job"可知, Dan Ruth警官认为Jill非常的勇敢。Jill也算头脑冷静, 但这并非Dan Ruth的看法。
27. 主旨大意题。 Stop the bus! 一语双关, 既是Jill事发时对司机说的话, 也是Jill后来知道司机昏迷后做出的果断行为, 即文章的核心。
C

28. 细节理解题。根据第一段最后-句话"Visitors can choose a trained horse to…"可知答案为A。
29. 词义猜测题。根据第二段中"Due to the pandemic. between one and four times a day when on holiday."知因为疫情, 人们在旅行时也在工作, 所以生活和工作的界限已经不清晰了, 可知答案为A。

D
【语篇导读】本篇为说明文, 介绍了一种准社交关系, 也就是媒体用户将大众传媒中的人物当作真实人物, 并与之形成一种准社交关系(人们追星这种社会现象), 随着现代媒体技术的进步, 本来健康的准社交关系有了一些变化。
32. 推理判断题、根据第 段"When 1 was nine years old, I was desperately in love with a man who was 40 years my senior. Don't worry; Mickey Dolenz of The Monkees didn't even know I existed because he'd stopped being an actor 20 years earlier"以及第三段"This kind of" parasocial relationship"(准社交关系)has long roots in media. Radio characters like Lonesome Gal started her program with, "Sweetie.1 love you," speaking directly to her listeners in the the 1950s. Each individual felt he had her undivided attention. She was an entirely virtual girlfriend, at a time when the word had nothing to do with technology.”可知准社交关系是一种虚构的与名人的关系。
33. 词句猜测题。根据第二段的"throwing knowing winks(眨眼)to camera, and shared their funny behind-the-scenes lives They made us think we knew them, as a friend"可知, 在电视节目中, 明星通过会心的眨眼, 抛媚眼, 并分享他们有趣的幕后生活来与观众们互动, 因此broke the fourth wall的意思是“与观众们互动", 和interacted with the audience意思相近, 故选B。
34. 推理判断题。根据第四段的"But once you start to gain a critical mass, the relationship necessarily transforms—at least in the eye of the digital personality. You can speak directly to one fan, or even five. But it's not possible to respond to the 10,000 people who subscribe to your TikTok. What was once a close and friendly relationship turns into a business transaction(交易). (但一旦你开始获得临界量, 这种关系就必然会发生变化——至少按照数字人格的标准。你可以直接对一个粉丝, 甚至五个粉丝说话。但你不可能对订阅你TikTok的1万人做出回应, 曾经亲密友好的关系变成了商业交易。)"可知, 一口你的粉丝数量暴增过多, 这种关系必然会发生变化故选C。
35. 推理判断题。根据最后一段"Today's parasocial relationships are surfing unknown territory, so it is expected that they-we-will make mistakes. And who is there to help when we've put ourselves out there online (今天的准社会关系是在未知的领域中冲浪, 所以他们、我们会犯错误是可以预料的。当我们把自己放在网上时, 谁来帮助我们呢 )"可知, 作者写这篇文章的目的是引起公众关注。
