Believe me, they are very easy to get along with. I’m sure you’ll like the family. That’s all. Bye

21．C 22．D 23．A
【分析】本文为说明文。文中介绍了星巴克、谷歌和耐克品牌名字的由来，并说明品牌名字的重要性。
21．细节理解题。根据Starbucks部分的中间“The founders’ original idea was to name the company after the Captain Ahab’s ship, but they eventually decided that Pequot wasn’t a great name for coffee, so they chose Ahab’s first mate, Starbucks, as the name instead.”(创始人最初的是想以船长Ahab的船的名字来命名公司。但他们最终认定(船的名字)佩特不是咖啡的好名字，所以他们选择了亚哈的大副星巴克，作为名字。)由此可知，这艘船的名字叫Pequot，选项C与文意相符，故选C项。
22．细节理解题。根据“Google”部分中的内容“when the founders of the company were searching for a new name showing a huge amount of data for their rapidly improving search technology ”(当时该公司的创始人正在寻找一个新名字，来表示他们搜索引擎技术的快速发展。)可知，改名是因为公司的搜索引擎技术的快速发展，选项D与文意相符，故选D项。
23．细节理解题。根据最后一段“The right name is essential to a company’s success, and a great origin story is just as important as a great product. An attractive origin story is one more thing that keeps customers guessing, wondering, and buying its products.”（恰当的名字对于一个公司的成功是至关重要的，一个伟大故事的起源和一个伟大的产品一样重要。一个吸引人的故事起源是一个让顾客猜测、疑惑和购买公司产品的东西。）可知，一个吸引人的故事起源可以让让顾客猜测和购买公司产品。选项A符合文意，故选A项。
B
24．D 25．C 26．B 27．A
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，主要讲述了儿童作家贝弗莉·克利里的生平和创作的主要书籍，她通过写普通孩童的故事改变了儿童故事书的世界。
24．细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Even after she learned to love reading, she felt like the people she was reading about didn’t have much to do with her and her life, which were unattractive to her.(即使在她学会了热爱阅读之后，她也觉得她所阅读的人与她和她的生活没有太大关系，这对她来说没有吸引力。)”可知，在孩童时期，她觉得自己读的那些书没有吸引力，很无聊。故选D。
25．细节理解题。根据第二段最后两句“When she grew up, Cleary realized there weren’t many books about ordinary kids. So she set out to write them at age 30 ….”可知，当她长大后，Cleary意识到关于普通孩子的书并不多。于是她在30岁时开始着手写作…。故选C。
26．细节理解题。根据第三段中的“The Mouse and the Motorcycle tells the exciting story of a motorcycle-riding mouse and his friendship with a young boy. But that sort of fantasy was unusual for Cleary, who usually focused on real life.(《老鼠和摩托车》讲述了一个骑摩托车的老鼠和他与一个小男孩的友谊的激动人心的故事。但这种幻想作品对克利里来说是不寻常的，她通常专注于现实生活。)”可知，《老鼠和摩托车》是一部幻想作品。故选B。
27．细节理解题。根据第三段中的“she set out to write them at age 30(她在 30 岁时开始写这些作品)”和最后一段中的“Cleary had kept writing for 53 years(克利里坚持写作了53年)”可知，克利里在30岁时开始写作，坚持写作53年，由此可知，她在大约83岁的时候停止写作。故选A。
C
28．B 29．C 30．B 31．D
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了为什么人们会拒绝看似过于慷慨的优惠或免费赠品，探讨了经济学和心理学之间的联系。
28．词句猜测题。根据第一段“If a stranger offered you a free cookie, you might well eat it. But what if they offered to also give you $2 You might politely decline and walk away thinking, “Something smells fishy.”(如果一个陌生人给你一块免费的饼干，你很可能会吃掉它。但如果他们还愿意给你2美元呢？你可能会礼貌地拒绝，然后走开，心想：“有些东西闻起来很可疑。”)”以及第二段“In a study published in Personality and Social Psychology Bulletin, researchers found that people tend to turn down offers of “free money” as well as unusually high salaries or suspiciously cheap services because they seem“ too good to be true.”(在《个性与社会心理学公报》上发表的一项研究中，研究人员发现，人们倾向于拒绝“免费的钱”、异常高的薪水或可疑的廉价服务，因为它们看起来“好得令人难以置信”)”可知，第一段的例子表明，当一件事情太过好的时候，人们会认为可疑会拒绝，从而产生与预期相反的效果。故划线词意思是“产生与预期相反的效果”。故选B。
29．推理判断题。根据第四段到第六段的内容 “..., we assume they have hidden motives and infer there will be “phantom costs”...”。我们假设他们有隐藏的动机，并推断将会有“幻影成本”。“ Understanding that others’ noticeable overgenerosity may put us in their debt could also help explain people’s reluctance,”理解到他人的过分慷慨可能会让我们欠下人情债，这也有助于解释人们的犹豫不决。“Another experiment found that high scorers on measures of distrust inferred more phantom costs.”另一项实验发现，不信任度量表上的高分者推断出了更多的幻影成本。据此可以推断他们不信任提供者的意图。故选C。
推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“Factors beyond the present moment may come into play.“ Understanding that others’ noticeable overgenerosity may put us in their debt could also help explain people’s reluctance,” says Rachel McCloy, a psychologist studying decision-making at England’s University of Reading.“ The old maxim’ there’s no such thing as a free lunch’ is clearly alive and well.”(当下以外的因素可能会起作用。英国雷丁大学研究决策的心理学家雷切尔·麦克洛伊说：“了解别人明显的过度慷慨可能会让我们欠他们的债，这也有助于解释人们的不情愿。‘天下没有免费的午餐’这句古老的格言显然是正确的。”)”可知，倒数第二段引用“天下没有免费的午餐”这句话是为了作为支持性的论据。故选B。
31．细节理解题。根据最后一段“Another experiment found that high scorers on measures of distrust inferred more phantom costs. The researchers also showed how to minimize the effect: simply provide a reason for the deal.(另一项实验发现，在不信任测试中得分高的人推断出更多的幻影成本。研究人员还展示了如何将影响降到最低：简单地提供一个交易的理由)”可知，给出合理的解释可以减少“幻影成本”。故选D。
D
32．A 33．D 34．B 35．C
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了Georgia Institute of Technology的两位研究人员开发了一种新的模型，用于研究冰川下的水流，并发现冰川下的水流可能比原先预测的要大得多，这可能对冰川融化和海平面上升等产生影响。
32．细节理解题。根据文章第一段“Two researchers from the Georgia Institute of Technology, Alex Robel and Shi Joyce Sim, have worked on a new model for how water moves under glaciers (冰川). ( 来自乔治亚理工学院的两位研究人员Alex Robel和Shi Joyce Sim开发了一种新的模型，用于研究冰川下的水流如何移动。)”可知，该模型用于研究冰川下的水流。故选A。
33．推理判断题。根据文章第二段“Robel explains, “Previously, people would run a model, which would have to be applied at every point under Antarctica, and then run forward over a long time period. Now the entirety of our prediction can be done in a second on a computer.” (罗伯尔解释说：“以前，人们会运行一个模型，这个模型必须应用于南极洲下的每一个点，然后才能向前运行很长一段时间。现在，我们的整个预测可以在计算机上一秒钟内完成。”)”可知，作者通过比较之前的方法和新的模型来展示新模型的优点。故选D。
34．推理判断题。根据文章第四段“Beyond sea level rise, this additional exfiltration and melting has other possible future effects. Some of the places of richest ocean productivity in the world occur off the coast of Antarctica, and being able to better predict exfiltration and melting could help ocean biologists better understand where ocean productivity is occurring, and how it might change in the future. (除了海平面上升之外，这种额外的渗漏和融化还可能对未来产生其他影响。世界上一些海洋生产力最丰富的地区位于南极洲沿岸，如果能够更好地预测渗漏和融化，将有助于海洋生物学家更好地了解海洋生产力的发生地，以及它未来可能如何变化。)”可知，在文章第四段中提到，除了海平面上升之外，这种额外的渗漏和融化还可能对未来产生其他影响。这表明额外的渗漏和融化可能会影响多个领域，因此作者强调了这一点。故选B。
35．主旨大意题。文章主要介绍了Georgia Institute of Technology的两位研究人员开发了一种新的模型，用于研究冰川下的水流，并发现冰川下的水流可能比原先预测的要大得多，这可能对冰川融化和海平面上升等产生影响。因此，文章主要讲述的是关于冰川下水流的一个重大发现，所以C选项“A Big Discovery About Under-glacier Flow”最适合作为文章的标题。故选C。
七选五
36．C 37．F 38．A 39．G 40．E
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要就如何欣赏艺术品给出了一些建议。
36．根据后文“Once you’ve identified a particular museum you’d like to visit, do a quick search to get a sense of what interests you and choose a period, an artist, or a small group of works to focus on. That way, you’ll have some direction when you get to your destination.(一旦你确定了一个你想参观的博物馆，快速搜索一下，了解你感兴趣的是什么，然后选择一个时期、一位艺术家或一小群作品来关注。这样，当你到达目的地时，你会有一些方向)”可知，后文主要说明了去参观前做一些调查，这样会有一些方向，故C选项“如果你没有计划，很容易感到不知所措”符合语境，故选C。

39．根据上文“When appreciating a work of art, you need to immerse yourself in the work as much as possible and feel the emotions and atmosphere conveyed by the work.(在欣赏一件艺术品时，你需要尽可能地沉浸在作品中，感受作品所传达的情感和氛围)”以及后文“In this way, you will better understand the emotions conveyed by the work. (这样，你就能更好地理解作品所传达的情感)”可知，上文提到感受作品的氛围，本句承接上文，说明方法，后文说明这么做的好处。故G选项“你可以试着把作品放在身前，闭上眼睛，专注于作品的氛围”符合语境，故选G。
40．根据上文“In conclusion, the works of art are the results of the artist’s hard work, and each work contains the painter’s emotions, thoughts, concepts and creativity.(综上所述，艺术作品是艺术家辛勤劳动的结果，每一件作品都包含着画家的情感、思想、观念和创造力)”可知，上文论述了艺术作品包含画家的情感、思想、观念和创造力，本句为本段最后一句，说明欣赏方法，故E选项“欣赏艺术作品需要你有充分的准备，细心和创造性”符合语境，故选E。

The man wrapped the scarf around his neck, instantly feeling a bit warmer. “Thank you. You are an angel,” he murmured, a glimmer of smile coming to his dry lips. He grabbed the scarf tightly, his eyes shining with happy tears. At that moment, Emma realized what she presented was not just a scarf but also a sign of hope. Inspired, she determined to bring that spark of hope to more people. An idea suddenly popped into her head that she could set up a knitting club to bring more warmth to those in need. Then Emma waved him goodbye and hurried to school, her heart light and warm.
Led by Emma, Knits for Hope Club was started in her school. Her classmates expressed their willingness to do their part. With the passage of time, the club grew in numbers and enthusiasm. By the end of winter, Knits for Hope had distributed more than two hundred hand-knitted items, warming numerous bodies and hearts. Through their needles, they had knitted a blanket of community, compassion, and warmth that enveloped everyone. Never did Emma realize the impact of her small gesture. It wasn’t about the scarves or hats; it was about weaving kindness into the fabric of society, showing that even the smallest acts can create the warmest changes.

【详解】1.段落续写
①根据首句内容“那人把围巾包在脖子上，立刻感觉暖和了一点。”可知，下文可以通过语言、 动作和心理描写的方式描述男士对Emma的感激之情，然后写Emma决定通过成立俱乐部给更多的人送去温暖的想法，最后描写Emma挥手告别匆匆赶往学校的心情。为了和第二段首句呼应，第一段最后必须提到Emma想要设立俱乐部的想法。
②根据首句“在艾玛的带领下，希望编织社在她的学校成立了”可知，下文主要写编织社团积极工作温暖了更多的人以及Emma的感悟：即使是最不起眼的行为也能产生最温暖的变化。
2.续写线索：戴围巾——男士对Emma的感激——给更多的人送去温暖——成立希望编织社——分发手工编织品——感触

A
The Origins of Famous Brands
Our lives are full of brand names and trademarked products that we use every day. Although many brand names are simple acronyms(首字母缩略词) or versions of their founders names, some of the companies we trust every day actually have fascinating and surprising back stories.
Starbucks
It seems fitting that the most famous coffee brand in the world would take its name from one of the world’s greatest works of literature. The inspiration for the name of the coffeehouse came from Herman Melville’s Moby Dick. The founders’ original idea was to name the company after the Captain Ahab’s ship, but they eventually decided that Pequot wasn’t a great name for coffee, so they chose Ahab’s first mate, Starbucks, as the name instead.
Google
Google was originally called Backrub, for it searched for links in every corner of the Web. In 1997, when the founders of the company were searching for a new name showing a huge amount of data for their rapidly improving search technology, a friend suggested the word “googol”. When a friend tried to register the new domain (域) name, he misspelled “googol” as “google”.
Nike
Originally founded as a distributor for Japanese running shoes, the company was originally named BRS, or Blue Ribbon Sports. In 1971, BRS introduced its own soccer shoe, a model called Nike, which is also the name for the Greek goddess of victory. In 1978, the company officially renamed itself as Nike, Inc.
The right name is essential to a company’s success, and a great origin story is just as important as a great product. An attractive origin story is one more thing that keeps customers guessing, wondering, and buying its products.
21. What is the name of the Captain Ahab’s ship
A. Moby Dick. B. Starbucks.
C. Pequot. D. Herman Melville.
22. Why did the founders of the Google want to change its name
A. They mistook their name.
B. They wanted new customers.
C. The company’s original name was too long.
D. The company’s search technology was improving rapidly.
23. What is the importance of the origin story of one company
A. It makes customers imagine and purchase its goods.
B. It can add myth to the company.
C. It explains the development of the company to customers.
D. It can change the company’s image.
B
In March, 2021, the much-loved children’s author Beverly Cleary passed away at age 104. Cleary’s writing changed the world of children’s books by showing that stories about the lives of ordinary kids could be interesting, funny, and popular.
Cleary was born in 1916. As a child, she had trouble learning to read. Even after she learned to love reading, she felt like the people she was reading about didn’t have much to do with her and her life, which were unattractive to her. She wanted to read funny books about children like herself. When she grew up, Cleary realized there weren’t many books about ordinary kids. So she set out to write them at age 30 and tried to get kids hooked on reading since she found they didn’t show much interest in books.
Cleary’s first book, Henry Huggins, came out in 1950. It tells the story of a boy and the dog that he takes in. Soon Cleary wrote more books about Henry Huggins and the other children in his neighborhood. Ramona Quimby, also known as Ramona the Pest, became Cleary’s best known book. The Mouse and the Motorcycle tells the exciting story of a motorcycle-riding mouse and his friendship with a young boy. But that sort of fantasy was unusual for Cleary, who usually focused on real life. In several books, the parents have money trouble or are unhappy with their jobs. Dear Mr. Henshaw tells the story of a boy dealing with his parents’ breaking-off.
Cleary had kept writing for 53 years, creating over 40 books in all. She won almost every award there was for children’s books, including the Newbery Medal and the National Book Award. Though Cleary is no longer with us, her characters and stories will beloved and shared for years to come.
24. How did Cleary find the books she read as a kid
A. Difficult. B. Expensive.
C. Frightening. D. Boring.
25. What inspired Beverly Cleary to write children’s books
A. Her early success in writing.
B. A desire to make reading more appealing to children.
C. The lack of books featuring ordinary children.
D. Her experiences as a librarian.
26. Which of the following is a fantasy
A. Dear Mr. Henshaw. B. The Mouse and the Motorcycle.
C. Henry Huggins. D. Ramona the Pest.
27. How old was Cleary when she stopped writing
A. About 83. B. About 73.
C. About 63. D. About 53.

If a stranger offered you a free cookie, you might well eat it. But what if they offered to also give you $2 You might politely decline and walk away thinking, “Something smells fishy.”
In a study published in Personality and Social Psychology Bulletin, researchers found that people tend to turn down offers of “free money” as well as unusually high salaries or suspiciously cheap services because they seem “too good to be true.” The research bridges economics and psychology to explain why financial attraction can backfire.
In the initial experiment, nearly 40 percent of participants ate a cookie offered freely — compared with about 20 percent of those offered $2 as well. “People typically imagine things like that someone did something disgusting to the cookie,” says study lead author Andrew J. Vonasch, a psychological scientist at University of Canterbury in New Zealand.
If someone seems to violate accepted norms such as self- interest without explanation, we assume they have hidden motives and infer there will be “phantom costs”: imagined consequences that reduce what Vonasch calls an offer’s “psychological value”.
Factors beyond the present moment may come into play. “Understanding that others’ noticeable overgenerosity may put us in their debt could also help explain people’s reluctance,” says Rachel McCloy, a psychologist studying decision-making at England’s University of Reading. “The old maxim’ there’s no such thing as a free lunch’ is clearly alive and well.”
Another experiment found that high scorers on measures of distrust inferred more phantom costs. The researchers also showed how to minimize the effect: simply provide a reason for the deal. The “cheap flights” experiment included a condition where the seats were revealed to be very uncomfortable. “Uncomfortable seats aren’t typically a selling point,” Vonasch says. “But telling people the seats were uncomfortable made them more willing to take them because it was sufficient clarification.”
28. What is the meaning of the underlined word backfire in the second paragraph
A. Cause a positive outcome unexpectedly.
B. Have the opposite effect of the one intended.
C. Improve the effectiveness of a strategy.
D. Enhance the value of an offer.
29. According to the study, why do people often reject offers that seem too good to be true
A. They believe they are illegal. B. They fear there are hidden costs.
C. They don’t trust the intentions of the provider. D. They think it’s a waste of time.
30. Why is the saying “there is no such thing as a free lunch” quoted in the last but one paragraph
A. To promote generosity in society. B. To serve as a supporting argument.
C. To highlight hidden costs of generous offers. D. To remind people to be cautious of free items.
31. Which case can reduce “Phantom Costs”
A. Offering more money. B. Providing additional unrelated gifts.
C. Discounting the price further. D. Giving a reasonable explanation.
D
Two researchers from the Georgia Institute of Technology, Alex Robel and Shi Joyce Sim, have worked on a new model for how water moves under glaciers (冰川). The new theory shows that up to twice the amount of under-glacier water that was originally predicted might be flowing into the ocean — potentially increasing glacial melting (融化), sea level rise, and so on.
While there are pre-existing methods to understand under-glacier flow, these techniques involve time-consuming computations. Robel and Sim developed a simple solution, which can predict how fast exfiltration (渗漏) is, using satellite measurements of Antarctica from the last two decades. Robel explains, “Previously, people would run a model, which would have to be applied at every point under Antarctica, and then run forward over a long time period. Now the entirety of our prediction can be done in a second on a computer.”
The potentially large source of under-glacier water — possibly up to double the amount previously thought — could be affecting how quickly glacial ice flows and how quickly the ice melts at its base. Robel and Sim hope that the predictions made possible by this theory can be included into ice sheet models that scientists use to predict future ice sheet change and sea level rise.
Beyond sea level rise, this additional exfiltration and melting has other possible future effects. Some of the places of richest ocean productivity in the world occur off the coast of Antarctica, and being able to better predict exfiltration and melting could help ocean biologists better understand where ocean productivity is occurring, and how it might change in the future.
Robel also hopes this work will open the doorway to more cooperation with groundwater hydrologists who may be able to apply their knowledge to ice sheet dynamics, while Sim stresses the need for more fieldwork. “Getting the observationalists interested in trying to help us better understand the qualities of ice sheets would produce a dramatic effect,” Sim says. “That’s our largest unknown at this point, and it heavily influences the results.”
32. What is the new model used to study
A. The flow of water beneath glaciers. B. The changes of ocean ecosystems.
C. The speed of glacial melting. D. The risk of sea level rise.
33. How does the author show the advantage of the new model
A. By analyzing facts. B. By referring to figures.
C. By giving examples. D. By making a comparison.
34. What does the author stress about the additional exfiltration and melting
A. It gets attention in many places. B. It may influence more than one field.
C. It is responsible for sea level rise. D. It has been considered by biologists.
35. Which can be a suitable title for the text
A. An In-depth Study of Antarctic Glaciers B. A Prediction of the Future of Glaciers
C. A Big Discovery about Under-glacier Flow D. A New Model Invented to Monitor Glaciers

If you’ve ever hesitated in a crowded museum gallery, wondering how to appreciate it properly, these tips will help you fully experience your artistic journey.
Do a little research before you go.
36 Once you’ve identified a particular museum you’d like to visit, do a quick search to get a sense of what interests you and choose a period, an artist, or a small group of works to focus on. That way, you’ll have some direction when you get to your destination.
Focus on quality, not quantity.
Rushing through museums and trying to see as many works as possible will only exhaust you, not inspire you. 37 Remember, the more time you put into your work, the more rewards it gives back to you.
38
Let your imagination run free and generate associations and resonances with the work. The incomplete parts of your intuition may stimulate your personal associations and creativity, bringing a unique viewing experience. There is no need to pursue fixed answers or explanations, but to enjoy the process of interaction and thinking with the work.
Be immersed in painting completely.
When appreciating a work of art, you need to immerse yourself in the work as much as possible and feel the emotions and atmosphere conveyed by the work. 39 In this way, you will better understand the emotions conveyed by the work.
In conclusion, the works of art are the results of the artist’s hard work, and each work contains the painter’s emotions, thoughts, concepts and creativity. 40
A. Trust your own intuition(直觉).
B. Pursue accurate explanation.
C. If you don’t have a plan, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed.
D. The more you learn about art, the more art you will see.
E. Appreciating artistic works requires you to be well-prepared, attentive and creative.

In the heart of the busy city of Avonlea, where the sounds of rushing cars never ceased, lived sixteen-year-old Emma. Unlike her classmates, who were often keen on the latest technology, Emma had a preference for knitting (编织).
Emma’s love for knitting was deeply influenced by her mother, who possessed a skilled and creative touch with needles. Her mother’s passion for knitting and generous spirit of helping others always inspired Emma to follow in her footsteps and take up knitting as a meaningful hobby.
Emma was really good at knitting. She liked to make scarves, gloves, hats and mini bags for her friends as well as her relatives. Her hats were created in a variety of styles and colors, each one unique and full of personality. Whether it was a mini bag or a classic scarf, each knitting work was a carefully crafted masterpiece and a unique gift full of love and warmth. With beauty and practicality, Emma’s creations never failed to impress.
One freezing morning in the peak of winter, the city had just been blanketed by a snowstorm that had left many, particularly the homeless, in desperate situation. As Emma made her way to school, she noticed a shaking figure under the bridge near her school. It was a homeless man she often saw on her route, but today he looked particularly miserable (可怜的). His face was half-hidden under a piece of worn cloth that hardly served as protection against the cold. Touched by the sight, Emma decided to present her scarf to the homeless man. She approached, handing the scarf to him.
“For me ” the man asked, his eyes widened with surprise.
“Yes! I thought it might help with the cold,” Emma said, her breath visible in the cold air.
