When Stephen Sondheim died on Nov. 26, 2021, at age 91. I didn’t show an inclination to watch his Broadway musicals. Something in me instead wanted to see Al Hirschfeld’s drawings of Sondheim’s shows and characters over the decades.
As a boy growing up in the Boston suburbs in the 1970s, Hirschfeld’s images were my first ticket to Broadway, transported by their publication in The Times’s Arts& Leisure section. And they were also how I formed an early bond with my parents, one that stood over time and even into their years with Alzheimer’s(阿尔茨海默症).
“Oklahoma!” was the first musical my parent took me to, in Boston, when I was six.
Around that time, I asked them why we got The Times when we didn’t live in New York. They said they still considered themselves New Yorkers and they loved Arts& Leisure and Hirschfeld’ s drawings about theater. His drawings were like a lifeline for my parents to New York City over the decades, and they helped open the door for me to Sondheim.
This is how:
I made my way to New York in 1989, as a freshman at N. Y. U. , where I met a dorm mate who looked like Hirschfeld’s drawing of little Red Riding Hood from Sondheim’s “Into that Woods.” Her name was Daniclle Ferland. I told my parents about this Hirschfeld-in-the-flesh excitedly by phonc. Danielle and other friends introduced me to Sondheim’s music which evoke (唤起)my memories of Hirschfeld’s drawings.
As my parents grew older, it was harder to take them to see shows with me. But in my years as the theater reporter at The Times, they would ask what I was seeing in New York and were happy to hear about Angela Lansbury performing in a 2009 revival(重演)of Sondheim’s “A Little Night Music.” They remembered her characteristic eyes from Hirschfeld’s drawings.
24. What does the underlined part “an inclination” in paragraph I mean
A. An ability. B. A tendency.
C. An opportunity. D. A responsibility,
25. What do Hirschfeld’s drawings mean to the author
A. A difficult childhood B. A chance to work for Broadway,
C. A cure for a disease in her later years. D. An inseparable life with her parents
26. What introduced the author to Sondheim’s music
A. Stories publicized in The Times,
B. The musical her parents took her to
C. A course she signed up for at university
D. Recommendations made by her friends
27. What did the author’s parents still remember about “A Little Night Music”
A. The time of its first staging B. The excitement it had caused
C. The drawings of its performer D. The performance on Broadway
C
Science fiction writers create imaginary worlds. The way things work in your imaginary worlds will be based on actual science. So it’s important for you to be familiar with the scientific principles and inventions that are related to your creation. For example, if you’re writing about human living on a planet with zero gravity, then you need to know the effects of zero gravity on the human body.
Then you have to figure out the exact rules of your imaginary worlds. And you have to follow them. If humans are able to breathe underwater in Chapter 1, your character can’t drown in a swimming pool in Chapter 3. The issue here is maintaining your readers’ trust. That means the reader is willing to pretend along with you. If you start out with an ordinary detective novel and then throw in someone breathing under water in the 6th chapter, you will pull the readers out of their imagination. The same thing happens if you change the rules halfway.
Part of your preparation work for the novel is to map out its worlds in great detail. You should decide the following issues: the history of the world, the geography, what possibilities it offers, how everything works in this new reality, and how all of these factors affect the way your characters think, feel, and react to things. You don’t have to tell your readers all the rules in the first chapter. But you have to let readers know enough to understand what’s going on. This also allows you to work out logical problems and contradictions before you start writing.
When you are writing, remember to make it feet real. You are inviting readers to visit a new world. They will want to be able to see, hear, feel, smell, and even taste what it’ s like. Whether your novel is about a world without disease or an undiscovered planet, help your readers feel like they’re actually there.
28. What’ s the relationship between actual science and science fiction
A. Science fiction promotes the development of actual science.
B. Science fiction often reflects the development of actual science.
C. Actual science provides basic principles for science fiction.
D. Actual science limits the imagination described in science fiction.
29. What does the third paragraph focus on
A. Part of the preparation work for science fiction writing. B. The different types of novels.
C. The detail in the first chapter of science fiction. D. The reality of science fiction.
30. Which of the following statements is TRUE
A. It is necessary to do some scientific experiments before writing science fiction.
B. Readers of science fiction actually pretend the writers’ rules are true.
C. The target readers of the passage are young scientists.
D. It is great to leave some contradictions in your science fiction.
31. What’s the best title of the passage
A. How to do scientific research B. How to write science fiction
C. What to expect from science fiction D. How to raise interest in science
D
“Eating together” is a statement that doctors use regularly when they talk with families about maintaining normal weight Children who eat regular family meals tend to have lower rates of obesity. A new study takes a look at why.
A team led by Jerica Berg asked the families of 120 children to record eight days of meals. Berge’s team sorted the interactions occurring at the table into two broad groups—those relating to the emotional atmosphere at the meal, such as how much the family members seemed to be enjoying the time together, and how many uncomfortable silences occurred—and those involving food specially, such as how many unpleasant feelings emerged from discussions about food, and how much the parents controlled what and how much children ate.
Children who were overweight had family meals that included more negative emotional interactions compared to children who weren’t overweight. Their meals tended to have a warmer, more communicative atmosphere. For example, these children were encouraged to eat foods to get stronger or run faster, while heavier children experienced more negative pressures including threats and being made to feel guilty about those who can’t afford to eat three meals a day. If parents talk constantly throughout the meal about food, and lectured the children about homework or attempted to control what the children ate, the youngsters were also more likely to be heavy. Also, the researchers found heavier children tended to have shorter meals.
In the meantime the current data suggests that simply sitting down at the same table at the same time isn’t enough to influence obesity. And it’s up to family doctors to help families understand how to take full advantage of breaking bread together.
32. What were classified into two groups by Berge’s team
A. Feelings emerging from discussions about food.
B. Features of family meals influencing weight.
C. Emotional atmosphere during the meals.
D. Conversations happening during dinner.
33. What did parents with overweight children not do at the table
A. They told the children to eat to grow healthier.
B. They talked with the children about homework.
C. They tried to take control of food that children ate.
D. They asked the children to finish meals quickly.
34. What may the author talk about in the following paragraph
A. Listing ways to cook delicious meals.
B. Showing how families diet in a healthy manner.
C. Giving reasons of why children are overweight.
D. Introducing ways to make the most of eating together.
35. What can be a suitable title for the text
A. How obesity spreads across family members
B. How dining with parents affects obesity in kids
C. Why parents should eat together with children
D. Why more children are becoming overweight

A Gift of Gold
It was the winter of 1937, just after Christmas. The Depression (大萧条时期) was still going on, but I was in good spirits. I was going to graduate from elementary school, but my mother still dressed me in shorts. Most of my classmates had given up wearing shorts. For the graduation ceremony, all the boys were expected to dress white shirts and dark-blue wool pants.
I waited until a week before I told my mother. On a cold Monday afternoon I went home from school.
“Mom,” I said, about graduation…”
“Yes ” she answered.
“They are going to give me the first-prize medal,” I said.
Still working over the stove, she looked over her shoulder at me and smiled broadly. “That’s wonderful, Babe. Dad and I will both be there, and we’ll be the proudest in the place.”
She must have seen by the look on my face that something was wrong. She turned her back and said, “So ”
“So, I have to get long pants,” I said.
“Babe, we don’t have the money for new pants right now,” she said.
“Okay,” I burst out. “Then I won’t go to graduation. Plus, I’m running away from home!”
“If I were you, I wouldn’t pack my bags. We’ll solve the pants problem somehow,” she said.
The following Saturday, when my mother said, “Let’s go shopping,” I knew that she had solved the problem. Then we left home. We took the trolley (有轨电车) and got off at Southern Boulevard, the best shopping street. Our clothing store was just a couple of blocks away.
But first we walked a short way down the Boulevard and stopped at a place I had never noticed before.
“Wait here,” she said. Then she opened the door with the hand with a gold wedding ring on her ring finger and entered a storefront (店面) that looked like a bank.
She went out about ten minutes later with a purse in her left hand, and then we went to the pants store. I chose a pair of pants. After a patient bargain with the seller, my mother bought it at the price of three dollars and fifty cents and handed it to me.
注意:1, 续写词数应为150左右;
2. 请按如下格式作答。
I was holding the pants tightly under my arm when my mother went to pay the money.
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
We took the trolley back home

When Stephen Sondheim died on Nov. 26, 2021, at age 91. I didn’t show an inclination to watch his Broadway musicals. Something in me instead wanted to see Al Hirschfeld’s drawings of Sondheim’s shows and characters over the decades.
As a boy growing up in the Boston suburbs in the 1970s, Hirschfeld’s images were my first ticket to Broadway, transported by their publication in The Times’s Arts& Leisure section. And they were also how I formed an early bond with my parents, one that stood over time and even into their years with Alzheimer’s(阿尔茨海默症).
“Oklahoma!” was the first musical my parent took me to, in Boston, when I was six.
Around that time, I asked them why we got The Times when we didn’t live in New York. They said they still considered themselves New Yorkers and they loved Arts& Leisure and Hirschfeld’ s drawings about theater.

Science fiction writers create imaginary worlds. The way things work in your imaginary worlds will be based on actual science. So it’s important for you to be familiar with the scientific principles and inventions that are related to your creation. For example, if you’re writing about human living on a planet with zero gravity, then you need to know the effects of zero gravity on the human body.
Then you have to figure out the exact rules of your imaginary worlds. And you have to follow them. If humans are able to breathe underwater in Chapter 1, your character can’t drown in a swimming pool in Chapter 3. The issue here is maintaining your readers’ trust. That means the reader is willing to pretend along with you. If you start out with an ordinary detective novel and then throw in someone breathing under water in the 6th chapter, you will pull the readers out of their imagination. The same thing happens if you change the rules halfway.
Part of your preparation work for the novel is to map out its worlds in great detail. You should decide the following issues: the history of the world, the geography, what possibilities it offers, how everything works in this new reality, and how all of these factors affect the way your characters think, feel, and react to things. You don’t have to tell your readers all the rules in the first chapter. But you have to let readers know enough to understand what’s going on. This also allows you to work out logical problems and contradictions before you start writing.
When you are writing, remember to make it feet real. You are inviting readers to visit a new world. They will want to be able to see, hear, feel, smell, and even taste what it’ s like. Whether your novel is about a world without disease or an undiscovered planet, help your readers feel like they’re actually there.
28. What’ s the relationship between actual science and science fiction
A. Science fiction promotes the development of actual science.
B. Science fiction often reflects the development of actual science.
C. Actual science provides basic principles for science fiction.
D. Actual science limits the imagination described in science fiction.
29. What does the third paragraph focus on
A. Part of the preparation work for science fiction writing. B. The different types of novels.
C. The detail in the first chapter of science fiction. D. The reality of science fiction.
30. Which of the following statements is TRUE
A. It is necessary to do some scientific experiments before writing science fiction.
B. Readers of science fiction actually pretend the writers’ rules are true.
C. The target readers of the passage are young scientists.
D. It is great to leave some contradictions in your science fiction.
31. What’s the best title of the passage
A. How to do scientific research B. How to write science fiction
C. What to expect from science fiction D. How to raise interest in science
【答案】28. C 29. A 30. B 31. B

“Eating together” is a statement that doctors use regularly when they talk with families about maintaining normal weight. Children who eat regular family meals tend to have lower rates of obesity. A new study takes a look at why.
A team led by Jerica Berg asked the families of 120 children to record eight days of meals. Berge’s team sorted the interactions occurring at the table into two broad groups—those relating to the emotional atmosphere at the meal, such as how much the family members seemed to be enjoying the time together, and how many uncomfortable silences occurred—and those involving food specially, such as how many unpleasant feelings emerged from discussions about food, and how much the parents controlled what and how much children ate.
Children who were overweight had family meals that included more negative emotional interactions compared to children who weren’t overweight. Their meals tended to have a warmer, more communicative atmosphere. For example, these children were encouraged to eat foods to get stronger or run faster, while heavier children experienced more negative pressures including threats and being made to feel guilty about those who can’t afford to eat three meals a day. If parents talk constantly throughout the meal about food, and lectured the children about homework or attempted to control what the children ate, the youngsters were also more likely to be heavy. Also, the researchers found heavier children tended to have shorter meals.
In the meantime, the current data suggests that simply sitting down at the same table at the same time isn’t enough to influence obesity. And it’s up to family doctors to help families understand how to take full advantage of breaking bread together.
32. What were classified into two groups by Berge’s team
A. Feelings emerging from discussions about food.
B. Features of family meals influencing weight.
C. Emotional atmosphere during the meals.
D. Conversations happening during dinner.
33. What did parents with overweight children not do at the table
A. They told the children to eat to grow healthier.
B. They talked with the children about homework.
C. They tried to take control of food that children ate.
D. They asked the children to finish meals quickly.
34. What may the author talk about in the following paragraph
A. Listing ways to cook delicious meals.

Dear schoolmates,

【答案】Dear schoolmates,
A recent survey has revealed that 70% of us have poor eyesight. Faced with the current situation, we students should respond actively to ease the serious condition.
First of all, we should take regular breaks from our study and go outside to give our eyes a chance to be exposed to sunlight. Of equal importance is avoidance of being too close to electronic equipment. Eventually, whenever and wherever we read, keep it in mind that proper lighting is a must so that our eyes don’t need to work hard.
I strongly advocate that we should take action at no time to save our eyesight.

A Gift of Gold
It was the winter of 1937, just after Christmas. The Depression (大萧条时期) was still going on, but I was in good spirits. I was going to graduate from elementary school, but my mother still dressed me in shorts. Most of my classmates had given up wearing shorts. For the graduation ceremony, all the boys were expected to dress white shirts and dark-blue wool pants.
I waited until a week before I told my mother. On a cold Monday afternoon I went home from school.
“Mom,” I said, about graduation…”
“Yes ” she answered.
“They are going to give me the first-prize medal,” I said.
Still working over the stove, she looked over her shoulder at me and smiled broadly. “That’s wonderful, Babe. Dad and I will both be there, and we’ll be the proudest in the place.”
She must have seen by the look on my face that something was wrong. She turned her back and said, “So ”
“So, I have to get long pants,” I said.
“Babe, we don’t have the money for new pants right now,” she said.
“Okay,” I burst out. “Then I won’t go to graduation. Plus, I’m running away from home!”
“If I were you, I wouldn’t pack my bags. We’ll solve the pants problem somehow,” she said.
The following Saturday, when my mother said, “Let’s go shopping,” I knew that she had solved the problem. Then we left home. We took the trolley (有轨电车) and got off at Southern Boulevard, the best shopping street. Our clothing store was just a couple of blocks away.
But first we walked a short way down the Boulevard and stopped at a place I had never noticed before.
“Wait here,” she said. Then she opened the door with the hand with a gold wedding ring on her ring finger and entered a storefront (店面) that looked like a bank.
She went out about ten minutes later with a purse in her left hand, and then we went to the pants store. I chose a pair of pants. After a patient bargain with the seller, my mother bought it at the price of three dollars and fifty cents and handed it to me.
注意:1, 续写词数应为150左右;
2. 请按如下格式作答。
I was holding the pants tightly under my arm when my mother went to pay the money.
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
We took the trolley back home.

【答案】One possible version:
I was holding the pants tightly under my arm when my mother went to pay the money. I saw her take a tiny brown envelope from her purse, tear the sealed envelope open and remove the contents. There were four brand-new one-dollar bills inside. She carefully unfolded them and handed them to the seller. The seller gave my mother the fifty cents change. Feeling greatly curious, how did she manage to get such a large sum of money Maybe my parents found new jobs with a higher salary.
We took the trolley back home. Sitting next to my mother on the trolley, I had the window seat and looked out. I even imagined Father had come home early and prepared a wonderful meal. About halfway home, I glanced down at my mother's hands folded across her purse, which was resting on her lap. It was then that I saw the gold wedding ring that had always encircled her ring finger on her left hand was no longer there. Deeply moved by what my mum had done, I truly understood everything and embraced my mum tightly,with tears rolling down.
