The following list focuses on the top 4 not-to-be-missed world-class parks, helping tourists better explore the city of Atlanta.
Centennial Olympic Park
Created for the 1996 Olympics, this park is well worth a visit. Visitors can be entertained by free music and lots of public art.

Travelling to watch their team play at the World Cup took a little longer than usual for two French fans. Mehdi Balamissa and Gabriel Martin decided the best way to travel from France to Qatar was on two wheels. The friends spent three months travelling 7,000 kilometers by bicycle to reach Qatar 2022 and watch their beloved France defend its title.
“It was a crazy idea, but we’re the kind of people that have big ideas and don’t want to have any regrets,” Balamissa said, as both spoke to CNN Sport a day after arriving in the country. “So, since we are both self-employed, we decided to block off three months of our time and come to Qatar.”
The pair started their mammoth (庞大的) journey at the Stade de France in Paris, home of the French national team, and finished at the stunning Lusail Stadium, the venue that would host the final at Qatar 2022. They would travel on average 115 kilometers per day, taking appropriate rest days when needed. They battled through the heat of the desert in Saudi Arabia as well as flooded woodland areas in Hungary as they made their winding way to Qatar, stopping off at campsites, lodges (乡间小舍) and hotels to sleep.
The idea came about after cycling from France to Italy to watch their country play in the UEFA Nations League last year and they wanted to test themselves with a much longer trip. They hoped their trip would promote the benefits of sustainable travel and said they planned to offer cycling workshops to children from disadvantaged backgrounds when they eventually arrived home.
The two cyclists encountered many problems along the way, including dozens of flat tires, but relied on their infectiously positive attitude to get them through. The pair laugh as they recall the time they had to travel 15 hours to Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, in order to find a bike repair shop before travelling 15 hours back to the exact point where they had stopped.
“We had many troubles, but we fixed them as we went,” Martin told CNN.
4．Why did Balamissa and Martin go to Qatar
A.To achieve their big ideas.
B.To set them apart from the other fans.
C.To close off three months for no regrets.
D.To watch their country defending its champion.
5．What does Paragraph 3 mainly tell us about the two fans
A.Their travelling plan. B.Their severe challenges.
C.The schedule about their journey. D.The scenery along their journey.
6．What’s the purpose of the two fans’ cycling trip
A.To explore the secrets and laws of nature.
B.To raise people’s awareness of eco-tourism.
C.To benefit more from the cycling workshops.
D.To be involved in the UEFA Nations League.
7．What can we learn from Balamissa and Martin’s story
A.Attitude is everything. B.Life lies in sports.
C.Life needs a slow pace. D.Man should be at one with nature.
Bacteria are an annoying problem for astronauts. The micro-organisms from our bodies grow uncontrollably on surfaces of the International Space Station, so astronauts spend hours cleaning them up each week. How is NASA overcoming this very tiny big problem It’s turning to a bunch of high school kids. But not just any kids. It is depending on NASA HUNCH high school classrooms, like the one science teachers Gene Gordon and Donna Himmelberg lead at Fairport High School in Fairport, New York.
HUNCH is designed to connect high school classrooms with NASA engineers. For the past two years, Gordon’s students have been studying ways to kill bacteria in zero gravity, and they think they’re close to a solution. “We don’t give the students any breaks. They have to do it just like NASA engineers,” says Florence Gold, a project manager.
“There are no tests,” Gordon says. “There is no graded homework. There almost are no grades, other than ‘Are you working towards your goal ’. Basically, it’s ‘I’ve got to produce this product and then, at the end of the year, present it to NASA.’ Engineers come and really do an in-person review, and… it’s not a very nice thing at times. It’s a hard business review of your product.”
Gordon says the HUNCH program has an impact on college admissions and practical life skills. “These kids are so absorbed in their studies that I just sit back. I don’t teach.” And that annoying bacteria Gordon says his students are emailing daily with NASA engineers about the problem, readying a workable solution to test in space.
8．What do we know about the bacteria in the International Space Station
A. They lead to air pollution. B. They are hard to get rid of.
C. They damage the instruments. D. They appear in different forms.
9．What is the purpose of the HUNCH program
A. To strengthen teacher-student relationships.
B. To sharpen students’ communication skills.
C. To allow students to experience zero gravity.
D. To link space technology with school education.
10．What do the NASA engineers do for the students in the program
A. Check their product. B. Guide project designs.
C. Adjust work schedules. D. Grade their homework.
11．What is the best title for the text
A. Nature: An Outdoor Classroom B. NASA: The Home of Astronauts
C. Space: The Final Homework Frontier D. HUNCH: A College Admission Reform
Do you ever hear a friend speak on a topic with the belief that "everyone" thinks the same way Do you often find yourself immersed in a social media feed that is completely tailored (量身打造) to you and your beliefs, reading along without the immediate realisation
A social media echo chamber (回音室) is when one experiences a tailored media experience that leaves out opposing viewpoints and differing voices. Social media sites connect groups of like-minded users together based on shared content preferences. As a result, we see and take in information according to our pre-existing beliefs and opinions. Social media companies therefore rely on algorithms (算法) to assess our interests and flood us with information that will keep our attention. The algorithms focus on what we "like" and "share" to keep feeding content that makes us comfortable.
In order to truly get access to all information and to evaluate our media, we must give ourselves the opportunity to step out of our comfort zone. While this becomes increasingly challenging, there are things we can do. The first step is to beef up your media consumption sources. Adding in a few media sources with differing opinions will allow you to at least understand what people are saying outside of your echo chamber. Next, read each thing you see with a critical eye. Make sure that each thing you accept as the truth is truly fact. Lastly, attempt to search out reliable new sources that are known for trying their best to leave out false information. By accepting that our media buffet on social media is a product of our present beliefs and opinions, we can work to make sure we are not simply stuck in a social media echo chamber.
12．What is a result of the social media echo chamber
A. People contact like-minded online users effectively.
B. People keep reading for more differing viewpoints.
C. People rely on algorithms to evaluate their interests.
D. People only get information confirming their beliefs.
13．What does the underlined phrase "beef up" in Paragraph 3 mean
A. Improve. B. Track. C. Provide. D. Identify.
14．Which of the following can help us get out of the echo chamber
A. Criticising fake news on social media.
B. Exposing ourselves to opposing voices.
C. Researching primary sources of information.
D. Accepting our present beliefs and opinions.
15．What is the purpose of the text
A. To call on people to use algorithms frequently.
B. To promote the use of various social media sites.
C. To ask people not to take in information blindly.
D. To inform people of new technology developments.
二、七选五
16．Are you an “I person” or an “E person”？ ① _________ They are part of a popular personality test called the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator, or MBTI. All of the results have four letters, and there are 16 results in total. “I” and “E” refer to “introverted”(内向的) and “extroverted”(外向的), respectively.
② _________ For example, when an introverted person is with a group of introverted friends, they might become more social like an “E” person.
According to psychologists, this idea of temporarily switching personalities is called “masking”. ③ _________ “Human beings want to feel they belong, and they might become people-pleasers to do so,” wrote the MasterClass website.
Using the MBTI result to identify and describe someone’s personality seems fun. However, I went too far at one time. My sister was excitedly making a day-to-day travel plan when I remembered from an article that “P” people don’t like to make or stick to plans, so I said to her, “You don’t seem like a ‘P person’.” “Why ” she asked back. “Since when do I need to follow what my personality test tells me to do ” ④ _________
The MBTI personality test may show something you don’t know about yourself and can even be fun ice-breaker question when meeting new friends. And that’s all it is—fun. Knowing someone’s MBTI result doesn’t mean you really know this person. ⑤ _________
A. Even if someone is typically quiet, many online discussions suggest that an “I” person can still act outgoing at times.
B. These two personality labels in particular are widely discussed online.
C. It was then that I realized I’d taken the result too seriously.
D. That is hiding your true personality in specific situations.
E. Personality labels also help us to tell the difference between people.
F. But deep down, they mostly enjoy being silent and quiet.
G. And those four letters of yours don’t define who you are.
三、完形填空（15空）
It's just one little valve(阀门).I'm just guessing that it takes about 42 seconds to walk from the couch to where the valve is in our front yard, 1 it and return to the couch. And yet I didn't.
Not that I wasn't 2 to do so. The city already warned unpleasant results could follow our 3 to turn off that valve. My wife, Anita, also talked about it several times. Each of those 4 went something like this: “Joe, have you turned off the valve to the watering system ” she would ask sweetly. “Oh, that's right,” I would say. “I 5 to do that.” “It would be great if you could do it before the ground freezes,” she would add, 6 . Then I would 7 sincerely that I would do it tomorrow. But I didn't. In my mind, there was no great rush to complete the task because we were having such a 8 fall followed by a usually warm winter. I kept telling myself that if it got really cold, I would do it. 9 , it would only take about 42 seconds to do it. And it was such a(n) 10 thing.
And now we're 11 it, with a couple of broken valves, a flooded basement floor and probably some 12 to the wall through which the water travelled on its way to the basement floor. The repairs to our watering system and the room have cost us several hundred dollars, not to mention the great 13 .
So delaying is not simply putting off an action or a decision. It will have its own 14 . Doing 15 is, in fact, doing something.
17．A.check B.repair C.close D.pick
18．A.expected B.permitted C.forced D.reminded
19．A.failure B.attempt C.decision D.admission
20．A.questions B.conversations C.introductions D.explanations
21．A.prefer B.happen C.need D.hate
22．A.surely B.thankfully C.quietly D.hopefully
23．A.promise B.consider C.agree D.wish
24．A.dry B.warm C.cool D.variable
25．A.In a word B.As a result C.After all D.Above all
26．A.funny B.simple C.ordinary D.pleasant
27．A.paying for B.preparing for C.waiting for D.caring for
28．A.challenges B.breakthroughs C.damage D.pressure
29．A.investment B.intervention C.inspiration D.inconvenience
30．A.consequences B.anxieties C.solutions D.responses
31．A.anything B.everything C.something D.nothing
四、短文填空

16．答案：①-⑤BADCG
解析：①根据上文“Are you an “I person” or an “E person”？(你是I人还是E人？)”以及后文“They are part of a popular personality test called the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator, or MBTI. All of the results have four letters, and there are 16 results in total. “I” and “E” refer to “introverted”(内向的) and “extroverted”(外向的), respectively.(它们是一种流行的人格测试的一部分，被称为迈尔斯-布里格斯类型指标(MBTI)。所有的结果都有四个字母，总共有16个结果。“I”和“E”分别代表“内向”和“外向”)”可知，根据上下文你是“I”人还是“E”人，“I”指的是内向型人格，“E”指的是外向型人格，可知这两种人格标签是网络上广泛讨论的内容，故B选项“这两种性格标签在网上被广泛讨论”符合语境，故选B。
②根据后文“For example, when an introverted person is with a group of introverted friends, they might become more social like an “E” person.(例如，当一个内向的人和一群内向的朋友在一起时，他们可能会变得更像一个“E”型的人)”可知，后文例子表明当一个内向的人跟一群内向的朋友在一起时，他们可能会像外向型的人一样，因此可推断，即使一个人很安静内向，有时一个“I”人也会有外向的一面，故A选项“即使一个人是典型的沉默寡言，许多网上讨论表明，一个“I”型的人有时仍然可以表现得外向”符合语境，故选A。
③根据上文“According to psychologists, this idea of temporarily switching personalities is called “masking”.( 根据心理学家的说法，这种暂时转换个性的想法被称为“伪装”)”可知，本句总结上文，指出“伪装”就是在特定的情况下隐藏自己的真实性格，其中masking对应hiding，故D选项“在特定情况下隐藏你的真实个性”符合语境，故选D。
④根据上文“Using the MBTI result to identify and describe someone’s personality seems fun. However, I went too far at one time. My sister was excitedly making a day-to-day travel plan when I remembered from an article that “P” people don’t like to make or stick to plans, so I said to her, “You don’t seem like a ‘P person’.” “Why ” she asked back. “Since when do I need to follow what my personality test tells me to do ”(用MBTI测试的结果来识别和描述一个人的性格似乎很有趣。然而，有一次我走得太远了。我妹妹正在兴奋地制定日常旅行计划，这时我想起了一篇文章，说“P”型的人不喜欢制定或坚持计划，所以我对她说：“你看起来不像“P”型的人。”“为什么？”她反问道。“从什么时候开始我需要按照我的性格测试告诉我的去做”)”可知，上文中的例子表明，作者曾经一度过于相信MBTI的定义和描述，甚至误解姐姐做旅行不像所谓的“P”型人格特点，可知，直到那时作者才发现自己过于在意这个测试结果，故C选项“那时我才意识到我把结果看得太认真了”符合语境，故选C。
⑤根据上文“The MBTI personality test may show something you don’t know about yourself and can even be fun ice-breaker question when meeting new friends. And that’s all it is—fun. Knowing someone’s MBTI result doesn’t mean you really know this person.(MBTI人格测试可能会显示出你对自己不了解的一些东西，甚至可以成为结识新朋友时有趣的破冰问题。这就是一切——有趣。知道某人的MBTI测试结果并不意味着你真的了解这个人)”可知，MBTI人格测试可能会让你更了解自己，在结识新朋友时，我们也可以把它当作一个破冰的话题。但它就是个乐子而已。知道某人的性格测试结果并不意味着你真的了解他/她，由此可知，这四个字母的性格测试结果也并不能定义你是谁，故G选项“你的四个字母并不能定义你是谁”符合语境，故选G。
17．答案：C
解析：根据语境及下文中的“turn off that valve”可知，作者应该做的是关掉阀门。
18．答案：D
解析：根据后文中的“The city already warned unpleasant results could follow” “My wife, Anita, also talked about it several times.”可知，作者并非没有被提醒过要关掉阀门。
19．答案：A
解析：根据上下文语境可知，此处表示市政已经警示过居民：如果未能及时关闭阀门，会产生不好的结果。
20．答案：B
解析：根据下文的对话内容可知，此处表示因作者的妻子提醒他关闭阀门而时常会有类似这样的对话。
21．答案：C
解析：根据上下文语境和句意可知，当被妻子问到有没有关闭阀门时，作者总会回答道：“是的，我需要去完成这件事。”
22．答案：D
解析：根据上文对话可知，此处表示作者的妻子希望他能在天气变得很冷之前把自来水的阀门关掉。
23．答案：A
解析：根据语境可知，作者真诚地向妻子保证：“我明天就会把它关掉。”
24．答案：B
解析：根据句意可知，因为天气一直很暖和，并且暖秋后面通常会是暖冬，所以作者心里一直认为不需要急着关掉阀门。
25．答案：C
解析：根据语境可知，作者一直告诉自己，“天气变冷了，我就会去关掉它”。作者内心认为一直不关阀门不会有什么问题，而且这件事可以很快地完成。毕竟，关闭阀门只需要花费大约42秒的时间。
26．答案：B
解析：根据上文内容可知，关闭阀门是一件非常简单的事情。
27．答案：A
解析：根据下文内容可知，作者一家因为没能及时关闭阀门付出了昂贵的代价(阀门破裂、地下室被淹等)。Pay for表示“(为某种过失)付出代价”。
28．答案：C
解析：根据语境及生活常识可知，自来水阀门破裂，水在流向地下室的过程中也许还会渗入房子的墙壁，对其造成损伤。
29．答案：D
解析：根据语境可知，维修供水管道和房子的损伤不仅花了作者一家许多钱，还给他们的生活造成很多不便。
30．答案：A
解析：最后一段是作者通过这件事情得到的感悟：拖延并不只是意味着推迟做某件事或某个决定，它还会带来相应的后果。故选A。
31．答案：D
解析：根据全文内容可知，作者一直拖延、不去关闭阀门，这造成了他们需要支付维修房屋的费用并且生活不便的后果。因此此处表示，不作为实际上也是一种(会带来后果的)行为。
32．答案：was recognized；which；officially；Tourists；built；a；welcoming；but；to promote；popularity
解析：
①考查时态和语态。句意：周五，在黑龙江省哈尔滨市举行的2024年中国冰雪旅游发展论坛上，哈尔滨冰雪大世界被吉尼斯世界纪录认定为世界上最大的冰雪主题公园，面积为.5平方米。设空处在句中作谓语动词，根据“At the 2024 China Ice and Snow Tourism Development Forum held on Friday in Harbin”可知，此句陈述过去发生的事情，主语Harbin Ice and Snow World与动词 recognize之间为被动关系，此句谓语动词用一般过去时的被动语态；Harbin Ice and Snow World作主语，谓语动词用第三人称单数形式，故填was recognized。

Travelling to watch their team play at the World Cup took a little longer than usual for two French fans. Mehdi Balamissa and Gabriel Martin decided the best way to travel from France to Qatar was on two wheels. The friends spent three months travelling 7,000 kilometers by bicycle to reach Qatar 2022 and watch their beloved France defend its title.
“It was a crazy idea, but we’re the kind of people that have big ideas and don’t want to have any regrets,” Balamissa said, as both spoke to CNN Sport a day after arriving in the country. “So, since we are both self-employed, we decided to block off three months of our time and come to Qatar.”
The pair started their mammoth (庞大的) journey at the Stade de France in Paris, home of the French national team, and finished at the stunning Lusail Stadium, the venue that would host the final at Qatar 2022. They would travel on average 115 kilometers per day, taking appropriate rest days when needed. They battled through the heat of the desert in Saudi Arabia as well as flooded woodland areas in Hungary as they made their winding way to Qatar, stopping off at campsites, lodges (乡间小舍) and hotels to sleep.
The idea came about after cycling from France to Italy to watch their country play in the UEFA Nations League last year and they wanted to test themselves with a much longer trip. They hoped their trip would promote the benefits of sustainable travel and said they planned to offer cycling workshops to children from disadvantaged backgrounds when they eventually arrived home.
The two cyclists encountered many problems along the way, including dozens of flat tires, but relied on their infectiously positive attitude to get them through. The pair laugh as they recall the time they had to travel 15 hours to Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, in order to find a bike repair shop before travelling 15 hours back to the exact point where they had stopped.
“We had many troubles, but we fixed them as we went,” Martin told CNN.
4．Why did Balamissa and Martin go to Qatar
A.To achieve their big ideas.
B.To set them apart from the other fans.
C.To close off three months for no regrets.
D.To watch their country defending its champion.
5．What does Paragraph 3 mainly tell us about the two fans
A.Their travelling plan. B.Their severe challenges.
C.The schedule about their journey. D.The scenery along their journey.
6．What’s the purpose of the two fans’ cycling trip
A.To explore the secrets and laws of nature.
B.To raise people’s awareness of eco-tourism.
C.To benefit more from the cycling workshops.
D.To be involved in the UEFA Nations League.
7．What can we learn from Balamissa and Martin’s story
A.Attitude is everything. B.Life lies in sports.
C.Life needs a slow pace. D.Man should be at one with nature.
Bacteria are an annoying problem for astronauts. The micro-organisms from our bodies grow uncontrollably on surfaces of the International Space Station, so astronauts spend hours cleaning them up each week. How is NASA overcoming this very tiny big problem It’s turning to a bunch of high school kids. But not just any kids. It is depending on NASA HUNCH high school classrooms, like the one science teachers Gene Gordon and Donna Himmelberg lead at Fairport High School in Fairport, New York.
HUNCH is designed to connect high school classrooms with NASA engineers. For the past two years, Gordon’s students have been studying ways to kill bacteria in zero gravity, and they think they’re close to a solution. “We don’t give the students any breaks. They have to do it just like NASA engineers,” says Florence Gold, a project manager.
“There are no tests,” Gordon says. “There is no graded homework. There almost are no grades, other than ‘Are you working towards your goal ’. Basically, it’s ‘I’ve got to produce this product and then, at the end of the year, present it to NASA.’ Engineers come and really do an in-person review, and… it’s not a very nice thing at times. It’s a hard business review of your product.”
Gordon says the HUNCH program has an impact on college admissions and practical life skills. “These kids are so absorbed in their studies that I just sit back. I don’t teach.” And that annoying bacteria Gordon says his students are emailing daily with NASA engineers about the problem, readying a workable solution to test in space.
8．What do we know about the bacteria in the International Space Station
A. They lead to air pollution. B. They are hard to get rid of.
C. They damage the instruments. D. They appear in different forms.
9．What is the purpose of the HUNCH program
A. To strengthen teacher-student relationships.
B. To sharpen students’ communication skills.
C. To allow students to experience zero gravity.
D. To link space technology with school education.
10．What do the NASA engineers do for the students in the program
A. Check their product. B. Guide project designs.
C. Adjust work schedules. D. Grade their homework.
11．What is the best title for the text
A. Nature: An Outdoor Classroom B. NASA: The Home of Astronauts
C. Space: The Final Homework Frontier D. HUNCH: A College Admission Reform
Do you ever hear a friend speak on a topic with the belief that "everyone" thinks the same way Do you often find yourself immersed in a social media feed that is completely tailored (量身打造) to you and your beliefs, reading along without the immediate realisation
A social media echo chamber (回音室) is when one experiences a tailored media experience that leaves out opposing viewpoints and differing voices. Social media sites connect groups of like-minded users together based on shared content preferences. As a result, we see and take in information according to our pre-existing beliefs and opinions. Social media companies therefore rely on algorithms (算法) to assess our interests and flood us with information that will keep our attention. The algorithms focus on what we "like" and "share" to keep feeding content that makes us comfortable.
In order to truly get access to all information and to evaluate our media, we must give ourselves the opportunity to step out of our comfort zone. While this becomes increasingly challenging, there are things we can do. The first step is to beef up your media consumption sources. Adding in a few media sources with differing opinions will allow you to at least understand what people are saying outside of your echo chamber. Next, read each thing you see with a critical eye. Make sure that each thing you accept as the truth is truly fact. Lastly, attempt to search out reliable new sources that are known for trying their best to leave out false information. By accepting that our media buffet on social media is a product of our present beliefs and opinions, we can work to make sure we are not simply stuck in a social media echo chamber.
12．What is a result of the social media echo chamber
A. People contact like-minded online users effectively.
B. People keep reading for more differing viewpoints.
C. People rely on algorithms to evaluate their interests.
D. People only get information confirming their beliefs.
13．What does the underlined phrase "beef up" in Paragraph 3 mean
A. Improve. B. Track. C. Provide. D. Identify.
14．Which of the following can help us get out of the echo chamber
A. Criticising fake news on social media.
B. Exposing ourselves to opposing voices.
C. Researching primary sources of information.
D. Accepting our present beliefs and opinions.
15．What is the purpose of the text
A. To call on people to use algorithms frequently.
B. To promote the use of various social media sites.
C. To ask people not to take in information blindly.
D. To inform people of new technology developments.
二、七选五
16．Are you an “I person” or an “E person”？ ① _________ They are part of a popular personality test called the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator, or MBTI. All of the results have four letters, and there are 16 results in total. “I” and “E” refer to “introverted”(内向的) and “extroverted”(外向的), respectively.
② _________ For example, when an introverted person is with a group of introverted friends, they might become more social like an “E” person.
According to psychologists, this idea of temporarily switching personalities is called “masking”. ③ _________ “Human beings want to feel they belong, and they might become people-pleasers to do so,” wrote the MasterClass website.
Using the MBTI result to identify and describe someone’s personality seems fun. However, I went too far at one time. My sister was excitedly making a day-to-day travel plan when I remembered from an article that “P” people don’t like to make or stick to plans, so I said to her, “You don’t seem like a ‘P person’.” “Why ” she asked back. “Since when do I need to follow what my personality test tells me to do ” ④ _________
The MBTI personality test may show something you don’t know about yourself and can even be fun ice-breaker question when meeting new friends. And that’s all it is—fun. Knowing someone’s MBTI result doesn’t mean you really know this person. ⑤ _________
A. Even if someone is typically quiet, many online discussions suggest that an “I” person can still act outgoing at times.
B. These two personality labels in particular are widely discussed online.
C. It was then that I realized I’d taken the result too seriously.
D. That is hiding your true personality in specific situations.
E. Personality labels also help us to tell the difference between people.
F. But deep down, they mostly enjoy being silent and quiet.
G. And those four letters of yours don’t define who you are.
三、完形填空（15空）
It's just one little valve(阀门).I'm just guessing that it takes about 42 seconds to walk from the couch to where the valve is in our front yard, 1 it and return to the couch. And yet I didn't.
Not that I wasn't 2 to do so. The city already warned unpleasant results could follow our 3 to turn off that valve. My wife, Anita, also talked about it several times. Each of those 4 went something like this: “Joe, have you turned off the valve to the watering system ” she would ask sweetly. “Oh, that's right,” I would say. “I 5 to do that.” “It would be great if you could do it before the ground freezes,” she would add, 6 . Then I would 7 sincerely that I would do it tomorrow. But I didn't. In my mind, there was no great rush to complete the task because we were having such a 8 fall followed by a usually warm winter. I kept telling myself that if it got really cold, I would do it. 9 , it would only take about 42 seconds to do it. And it was such a(n) 10 thing.
And now we're 11 it, with a couple of broken valves, a flooded basement floor and probably some 12 to the wall through which the water travelled on its way to the basement floor. The repairs to our watering system and the room have cost us several hundred dollars, not to mention the great 13 .
So delaying is not simply putting off an action or a decision. It will have its own 14 . Doing 15 is, in fact, doing something.
17．A.check B.repair C.close D.pick
18．A.expected B.permitted C.forced D.reminded
19．A.failure B.attempt C.decision D.admission
20．A.questions B.conversations C.introductions D.explanations

28．A.challenges B.breakthroughs C.damage D.pressure
29．A.investment B.intervention C.inspiration D.inconvenience
30．A.consequences B.anxieties C.solutions D.responses
31．A.anything B.everything C.something D.nothing
四、短文填空

16．答案：①-⑤BADCG
解析：①根据上文“Are you an “I person” or an “E person”？(你是I人还是E人？)”以及后文“They are part of a popular personality test called the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator, or MBTI. All of the results have four letters, and there are 16 results in total. “I” and “E” refer to “introverted”(内向的) and “extroverted”(外向的), respectively.(它们是一种流行的人格测试的一部分，被称为迈尔斯-布里格斯类型指标(MBTI)。所有的结果都有四个字母，总共有16个结果。“I”和“E”分别代表“内向”和“外向”)”可知，根据上下文你是“I”人还是“E”人，“I”指的是内向型人格，“E”指的是外向型人格，可知这两种人格标签是网络上广泛讨论的内容，故B选项“这两种性格标签在网上被广泛讨论”符合语境，故选B。
②根据后文“For example, when an introverted person is with a group of introverted friends, they might become more social like an “E” person.(例如，当一个内向的人和一群内向的朋友在一起时，他们可能会变得更像一个“E”型的人)”可知，后文例子表明当一个内向的人跟一群内向的朋友在一起时，他们可能会像外向型的人一样，因此可推断，即使一个人很安静内向，有时一个“I”人也会有外向的一面，故A选项“即使一个人是典型的沉默寡言，许多网上讨论表明，一个“I”型的人有时仍然可以表现得外向”符合语境，故选A。
③根据上文“According to psychologists, this idea of temporarily switching personalities is called “masking”.( 根据心理学家的说法，这种暂时转换个性的想法被称为“伪装”)”可知，本句总结上文，指出“伪装”就是在特定的情况下隐藏自己的真实性格，其中masking对应hiding，故D选项“在特定情况下隐藏你的真实个性”符合语境，故选D。
④根据上文“Using the MBTI result to identify and describe someone’s personality seems fun. However, I went too far at one time. My sister was excitedly making a day-to-day travel plan when I remembered from an article that “P” people don’t like to make or stick to plans, so I said to her, “You don’t seem like a ‘P person’.” “Why ” she asked back. “Since when do I need to follow what my personality test tells me to do ”(用MBTI测试的结果来识别和描述一个人的性格似乎很有趣。然而，有一次我走得太远了。我妹妹正在兴奋地制定日常旅行计划，这时我想起了一篇文章，说“P”型的人不喜欢制定或坚持计划，所以我对她说：“你看起来不像“P”型的人。”“为什么？”她反问道。“从什么时候开始我需要按照我的性格测试告诉我的去做”)”可知，上文中的例子表明，作者曾经一度过于相信MBTI的定义和描述，甚至误解姐姐做旅行不像所谓的“P”型人格特点，可知，直到那时作者才发现自己过于在意这个测试结果，故C选项“那时我才意识到我把结果看得太认真了”符合语境，故选C。
⑤根据上文“The MBTI personality test may show something you don’t know about yourself and can even be fun ice-breaker question when meeting new friends. And that’s all it is—fun. Knowing someone’s MBTI result doesn’t mean you really know this person.(MBTI人格测试可能会显示出你对自己不了解的一些东西，甚至可以成为结识新朋友时有趣的破冰问题。这就是一切——有趣。知道某人的MBTI测试结果并不意味着你真的了解这个人)”可知，MBTI人格测试可能会让你更了解自己，在结识新朋友时，我们也可以把它当作一个破冰的话题。但它就是个乐子而已。知道某人的性格测试结果并不意味着你真的了解他/她，由此可知，这四个字母的性格测试结果也并不能定义你是谁，故G选项“你的四个字母并不能定义你是谁”符合语境，故选G。
17．答案：C
解析：根据语境及下文中的“turn off that valve”可知，作者应该做的是关掉阀门。
18．答案：D
解析：根据后文中的“The city already warned unpleasant results could follow” “My wife, Anita, also talked about it several times.”可知，作者并非没有被提醒过要关掉阀门。
19．答案：A
解析：根据上下文语境可知，此处表示市政已经警示过居民：如果未能及时关闭阀门，会产生不好的结果。
20．答案：B
解析：根据下文的对话内容可知，此处表示因作者的妻子提醒他关闭阀门而时常会有类似这样的对话。
21．答案：C
解析：根据上下文语境和句意可知，当被妻子问到有没有关闭阀门时，作者总会回答道：“是的，我需要去完成这件事。”
22．答案：D
解析：根据上文对话可知，此处表示作者的妻子希望他能在天气变得很冷之前把自来水的阀门关掉。
23．答案：A
解析：根据语境可知，作者真诚地向妻子保证：“我明天就会把它关掉。”

32．答案：was recognized；which；officially；Tourists；built；a；welcoming；but；to promote；popularity
解析：
①考查时态和语态。句意：周五，在黑龙江省哈尔滨市举行的2024年中国冰雪旅游发展论坛上，哈尔滨冰雪大世界被吉尼斯世界纪录认定为世界上最大的冰雪主题公园，面积为.5平方米。设空处在句中作谓语动词，根据“At the 2024 China Ice and Snow Tourism Development Forum held on Friday in Harbin”可知，此句陈述过去发生的事情，主语Harbin Ice and Snow World与动词 recognize之间为被动关系，此句谓语动词用一般过去时的被动语态；Harbin Ice and Snow World作主语，谓语动词用第三人称单数形式，故填was recognized。
②考查非限制性定语从句。句意：这个集冰、雪、声、光于一体的公园正式开放了25年。分析句子结构可知，“ combines ice，snow，sound and lights”为非限制性定语从句，设空处指代先行词The park在从句中作主语，先行词The park 指物，故填which。
③考查副词。句意同上。设空处修饰动词 opened作状语，故填officially。
④考查名词复数。句意：游客们可能惊叹于由超过25万立方米的冰雪制成的1000多件艺术品，或者参加众多活动，包括521米的冰滑梯，这是该公园迄今为止建造的最长的冰滑梯。tourist为可数名词，此处表复数概念；设空处置于句首，首字母大写，故填Tourists。
⑤考查非谓语动词。句意同上。分析句子可知，设空处作后置定语修饰短语the longest one，the longest one 与动词build之间为被动关系，故填built。
⑥考查冠词。句意：一个雪花形状的巨型摩天轮在天黑后的耀眼世界中提供独特的体验。experience“体验”为可数名词，此处表泛指，空后unique起始音为辅音音素，故填a。
⑦考查非谓语动词。句意：第40届哈尔滨国际冰雪节——这座城市一年一度的冬季盛会——在公园拉开帷幕，欢迎来自世界各地的人们。设空处为非谓语动词，句子主语The 40th Harbin International Ice and Snow Festival与动词welcome之间构成逻辑上的主动关系，故填现在分词welcoming作状语表主动。
⑧考查连词。句意：黑龙江省省长梁惠玲在开幕式上说：“黑龙江不仅拥有丰富的冰雪资源，而且是中国现代冰雪产业的发源地。目前，黑龙江正在积极发展文化旅游和开展活动来促进冰雪经济。”not only ... but also...“不仅……而且……”符合句意，故填but。
⑨考查不定式。句意同上。动词不定式 to promote作目的状语，故填to promote。
⑩考查名词。句意：她补充说，冰雪公园的流行促进了全省冰雪经济的发展。根据句意可知，设空处应填popular的名词形式popularity，意为“受欢迎，流行”。
