一、阅读理解（本大题共5小题）
Whether you plan to head out to the theater or binge from the couch, our critics have gathered together their favorite films of 2024. Have at it!
Flow
Near the outset of Gints’ exquisite animated feature, a grey cat is swept up by a flood, finding itself stuck with a few other animals on a tiny ark of sorts. Featuring cross-species cooperation in the face of a climate crisis, the filmmaker works miracles with computer graphics sending what look like hand-drawn animals into photorealistic backgrounds.
Article 20
Article 20 is a thought-provoking film. It focuses on a legal clause and unfolds a series of events and conflicts around it. The story delves into the impact of this article on different individuals and society, exploring themes of justice, rights, and human nature. With its engaging plot and profound meaning, it prompts the audience to reflect on various aspects of the law and life.
The Room Next Door
In Pedro Almodovar’s latest, Martha (Tilda Swinton) and Ingrid (Julianne Moore) are long lost friends who reconnect after Martha is diagnosed with a terminal illness. The director has adapted Sigrid Nunez’s novel What Are You Going Through for his first English-language feature, and none of his renowned sensibilities are lost in translation.
Tuesday
Julia Louis-Dreyfus gives a career-best performance as Zora, a single mother living with her terminally ill daughter Tuesday. One day, Tuesday is visited by death in the form of a talking parrot who can change size, voiced in a magnificent baritone by Arinze Kene. Zora tries everything to keep him at bay, but is forced to confront her greatest fear.

When was the last time you used a telephone box I mean to make an actual phone call — not to shelter from the rain. Ages ago, right The last time I used a phone box for its intended purpose was…2006. I was conducting auditions (试演) for my play in my tiny old shared house in London. Hoping to impress some talented actors to come and work for me for nothing, I spread some throws over the sofas and lit candles to make it seem a bit more ”young professional”.
As I rushed outdoors to empty the wastepaper baskets, the door swung shut behind me. Suddenly I was locked outside. My mobile phone was inside, but luckily there was a telephone box across the street. So, I called Directory Assistance, got put through to our landlady’s managing agent, and had a spare key sent to me with just enough time to get back in before the actors arrived.
As it has been many years since I last used one, I should hardly be surprised that then are no longer any public telephones near my house. The last one standing has just been turn into a “mini community library”: any passer-by can “borrow” a book from its shelves return it later, or replace it with another title from their own collection.
For a few months after the “library” opened, I didn’t bother taking a look, as I had assumed that it would be stuffed full of cheese love stories. Then I noticed folk conducting spring cleans dropping boxes of voluminous books on various subjects there. And these books were free. This unbeatable price-point encouraged me to experiment with dozens of titles that I would never normally consider buying. And I’ve discovered some great books!
If I ever get trapped outside my house again, my local telephone box will, sadly no longer be able to connect me with my keys. But it can certainly keep me entertained while I wait for my wife to rescue me.

A．The play. B．The shared house.
C．The sofa. D．The telephone box.

B．He was encouraged by a close neighbour.
C．He found there were excellent free books.
D．He thought it was an ideal place for reading.
If carbon dioxide(CO2) were a politician, it would be worried about its bad press. This greenhouse gas is the primary pollutant responsible for global warming. Scientists, leaders, and activists are trying to stop its production. This gas, however, also plays a key role in life on Earth.
Carbon helps form the protein and DNA found in living things. In the atmosphere, it combines with two oxygen atoms (原子) to form carbon dioxide. Carbon dioxide is necessary for photosynthesis (光合作用) . In the process, plants use energy from the sun to turn water and carbon dioxide into sugar. In return, plants give off oxygen. As carbon dioxide concentrations increase in the atmosphere, scientists are trying to employ photosynthesis to promote plant growth. Laboratory studies show a higher concentration of the gas is making some plants grow more quickly in certain conditions, but in the wild and on outdoor farms the overall benefit is unclear. In the Netherlands, some commercial greenhouses are experimenting with ways to send carbon dioxide released from industry into greenhouses along a particular way where plants use the extra gas as fertilizer (肥料).
The first person to assume the existence of carbon dioxide was 16th-century Belgian scientist Jan Baptist van Helmont. After coal was burned, he noted, the weight of the remains was lower than the coal’s initial weight, which means some mass had been lost in the process. He was the first scientist to recognize different gases present in the air we breathe. It wasn’t until 1896 that Swedish scientist Svante Arrhenius linked the carbon dioxide released from burning coal and oil to atmospheric warming.
Yet, despite its being plentiful in the atmosphere, we have been light on commercially produced carbon dioxide because of rising energy costs. As a result, carbonated drink (碳酸饮料) companies have had to raise prices or reduce production.
8．What function does CO2 have according to paragraph 2
A．Saving energy. B．Increasing fertilizer.
C．Supporting life. D．Commercializing agriculture.
9．Why is Jan Baptist van Helmont mentioned
A．To clarify the origins of CO2. B．To tell an unknown story.
C．To explain the applications of CO2. D．To show an early discovery.
10．What problem do carbonated drink companies face
A．Commercial CO2 is in short supply. B．Sales of their drinks are extremely poor.
C．It’s difficult to increase their production. D．There’s too much CO2 in the atmosphere.
11．Which can be the best title for the text
A．Climate Change: Affected by CO2 B．CO2: Both an Enemy and Friend
C．Greenhouse Gas: Having a Bad Press D．Carbon: Misunderstood Substance
It is a well-known fact that not all animals have the ability to instantly recognize themselves in the mirror. However, a few animals can recognize themselves, such as dolphins, Asian elephants, and of course humans! A species of fish with the ability to recognize itself in the mirror is commonly known as the cleaner fish.
Found in the Indian Ocean and the Pacific Ocean, cleaner fish exist as “cleaning stations” for other fish (known as hosts). They “clean” the dead skin and parasites (寄生虫) from other fish. This is of benefit for cleaner fish, which get a meal, as well as for the other fish species, which are freed from parasites. Such a type of relationship is known as mutualism.
Recently, a group of scientists in Japan found that cleaner fish might have the ability to identify (识别) themselves in photographs! It was already known that cleaner fish could recognize themselves in mirrors and would attack unknown cleaner fish. So, the team wanted to test whether the same was seen in the case of photos as well.
Thus, the team of scientists showed four types of photos to the cleaner fish. The first type was a photo of themselves, while the second involved an unknown cleaner fish. The third type of picture was a photo of an unknown cleaner fish with the fish’s own face edited onto it. The fourth type of photo included its own body but with the face of an unknown cleaner fish.
They found that cleaner fish attacked only those photographs which did not have their own faces. This result was similar to the ability of humans to recognize each other based on their faces and not by their bodies.
This study suggests that self-awareness may be far more widespread among animals than scientists once thought. People shouldn’t be surprised that fish could have a sense of self given that they have already been shown to have complex behavior including tool use and planning.
12．What does the underlined word “mutualism” probably mean in paragraph 2
A．A host-parasite relationship. B．A master-servant relationship.
C．Dependence on each other. D．Beneficial cleaning behavior.
13．What is the new finding about cleaner fish
A．They can identify themselves in the mirror.
B．They can recognize themselves in the images.
C．They have the same sense of self as humans.
D．They have a better sense of self than some animals.
14．Which types of photos would cleaner fish most probably attack
A．The first and second types. B．The second and fourth types.
C．The first and third types. D．The second and third types.
15．What is the author’s attitude toward the study
A．Unclear. B．Doubtful. C．Supportive. D．Unconcerned.
Food waste is a major issue in agriculture and in homes. If you grow your own food, the last thing you want is to let your hard work go to waste. 16 It begins with the plants you choose, and goes right through to preservation (保存) of your harvests. Here are some tips for you.
When planning a food-producing garden, it’s very important to choose the right plants for the right places. Waste is far more likely to happen if you are growing plants that are not suited to the climate, soil, and growing conditions. 17 Make sure they do not just provide food today, but can also adapt to the changing climate. If you make the right plant choices, you are likely to get a good harvest.
Sometimes cooperation is key. People may often have more seeds (种子) than they really need, particularly in small gardens. However, seeds are usually only viable (能存活的) for a certain length of time. 18 And you can also share skills and knowledge with each other.
19 You might, for example, grow some strawberries inside a greenhouse, with others outdoors. Those grown under cover will typically be ready to harvest a little earlier. Or you can grow different varieties of plants.
Once you have grown your crops, it is important to be ready to preserve what needs to be preserved. This can happen in a range of different ways. You can freeze, pickle (腌制), or can a wide range of garden produce. 20
A．Communities can come together to harvest crops.
B．Many common weeds or flowers can be sources of food.
C．Preventing food waste in the garden is a long term process.
D．So think about how you can create good systems in your garden.
E．Sharing them between households can avoid wasting their potential.
F．Make sure you know how to do so properly when harvest time comes.
G．Scheduling different harvest periods for certain crops can help avoid waste.

When I returned, we talked a bit, He said he was not allowed inside unless he purchased food. I went back and told my family his story. Then I asked our waitress to add one soup and sandwich. The kids looked puzzled as we had already eaten, but when I said the other was for the “doorman”, they smiled.

【解析】4．词句猜测题。根据第一段第五句“I was conducting auditions (试演) for my play in my tiny old shared house in London.(我当时在伦敦我那狭小的合租房子里为我的剧本进行试演。)”可知，此处是指使“我”的合租房看起来更“年轻专业”一点，所以it代指“合租房”。故选B。
5．细节理解题。根据第二段第四句“So, I called Directory Assistance, got put through to our landlady’s managing agent, and had a spare key sent to me with just enough time to get back in before the actors arrived.(所以，我打电话给电话查号台，接通了女房东的经纪人，他们给了我一把备用钥匙，刚好来得及在演员们到来之前回去。)”可知，作者在2006年使用电话亭是为了拨打紧急电话。故选A。
6．细节理解题。根据第三段第二句“The last one standing has just been turn into a “mini community library”: any passer-by can “borrow” a book from its shelves return it later, or replace it with another title from their own collection.(最后一个被改造成了一个“迷你社区图书馆”：任何路过的人都可以从它的书架上“借”书，以后还回来，或者用自己收藏的另一本书来替换。)”可知，任何人都可以为“迷你社区图书馆”的捐赠图书。故选B。
7．细节理解题。根据第四段最后四句“Then I noticed fork conducting spring cleans dropping boxes of voluminous books on various subjects there. And these books were free. This unbeatable price-point encouraged me to experiment with dozens of titles that I would never normally consider buying. And I’ve discovered some great books!(然后我注意到福克正在进行春季大扫除，把各种主题的大书一箱箱地扔到那里。而且这些书是免费的。这个无与伦比的价格点鼓励我尝试许多我通常不会考虑购买的标题。我还发现了一些很棒的书！)”可知，作者发现“迷你图书馆”里有很多免费的很棒的书，所以开始使用。故选C。
【答案】8．C 9．D 10．A 11．B
【分析】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述的是二氧化碳(CO2)这种温室气体是造成全球变暖的主要污染物，但是这种气体对地球上的生命也起着关键作用。
【解析】8．推理判断题。根据文章第二段“Carbon helps form the protein and DNA found in living things. In the atmosphere, it combines with two oxygen atoms (原子) to form carbon dioxide. Carbon dioxide is necessary for photosynthesis (光合作用). In the process, plants use energy from the sun to turn water and carbon dioxide into sugar (碳有助于形成生物体内的蛋白质和DNA。在大气中，它与两个氧原子结合形成二氧化碳。二氧化碳是光合作用所必需的。在这个过程中，植物利用来自太阳的能量将水和二氧化碳转化为糖)”可知，二氧化碳有益于生物，具有维持生命的功能，故选C。
9．推理判断题。根据文章第三段“The first person to assume the existence of carbon dioxide was 16th-century Belgian scientist Jan Baptist van Helmont. After coal was burned, he noted, the weight of the remains was lower than the coal’s initial weight, which means some mass had been lost in the process. He was the first scientist to recognize different gases present in the air we breathe.(第一个假设二氧化碳存在的人是16世纪的比利时科学家Jan Baptist van Helmont。他指出，煤燃烧后，残留物的重量低于煤的初始重量，这意味着在燃烧过程中损失了一些质量。他是第一个认识到我们呼吸的空气中存在不同气体的科学家)”可知，Jan Baptist van Helmont是第一个认识到我们呼吸的空气中存在不同气体的科学家，提到他是为了说明早期的发现。故选D。
10．细节理解题。根据文章最后一段“Yet, despite its being plentiful in the atmosphere, we have been light on commercially produced carbon dioxide because of rising energy costs. As a result, carbonated drink(碳酸饮料) companies have had to raise prices or reduce production.(然而，尽管大气中有大量的二氧化碳，但由于能源成本的上升，我们对商业生产的二氧化碳的利用很少。因此，碳酸饮料公司不得不提高价格或减少产量)”可知，商用二氧化碳供应不足，碳酸饮料公司不得不提高价格或减少产量。故选A。
11．主旨大意题。根据文章第一段“If carbon dioxide (CO2) were a politician, it would be worried about its bad press. This greenhouse gas is the primary pollutant responsible for global warming. Scientists, leaders, and activists are trying to stop its production. This gas, however, also plays a key role in life on Earth.(如果二氧化碳(CO2)是一位政治家，它会担心自己的负面报道。这种温室气体是造成全球变暖的主要污染物。科学家、领导人和活动人士正试图阻止它的生产。然而，这种气体对地球上的生命也起着关键作用)”以及后文可知，文章主要讲述的是二氧化碳(CO2)这种温室气体是造成全球变暖的主要污染物，但是这种气体对地球上的生命也起着关键作用。由此可知，B项：CO2: Both an Enemy and Friend(二氧化碳：既是敌人又是朋友)适合作本文最佳标题。故选B。
【答案】12．C 13．B 14．B 15．C
【分析】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍的是一项研究表明被称为清洁鱼的鱼能够在镜子中认出自己，动物的自我意识可能比科学家们曾经认为的要广泛得多。
【解析】12．词义猜测题。根据第二段中划线部分前的“They “clean” the dead skin and parasites (寄生虫) from other fish. This is of benefit for cleaner fish, which get a meal, as well as for the other fish species, which are freed from parasites. (它们“清理”其他鱼类身上的死皮和寄生虫。这对清洁鱼来说是有好处的，因为它们有饭吃，对其他鱼类来说也是如此，因为它们没有寄生虫。)”可知，清洁鱼清理其它鱼身上的死皮和寄生虫可以有饭吃，而对其他的鱼来说也是有好处的，所以，双方都是互利的，由此可知，这种关系被称为“互利关系”，划线单词的意思应与“互利”意义相近。故选C项。
13．推理判断题。根据第三段中的“Recently, a group of scientists in Japan found that cleaner fish might have the ability to identify (识别) themselves in photographs! (最近，日本的一组科学家发现，清洁鱼可能有能力在照片中识别自己(识别)!)”和“So, the team wanted to test whether the same was seen in the case of photos as well. (因此，研究小组想测试一下照片是否也会出现同样的情况。)”可知，最近日本的一组科学家发现清洁鱼有在照片中识别自己的能力，因此而进行一项实验测试，结合倒数第二段中的“They found that cleaner fish attacked only those photographs which did not have their own faces. (他们发现，清洁鱼只攻击那些没有自己面孔的照片。)”可知，研究发现，清洁鱼只攻击没有自己面孔的照片，由此可知，新研究发现的是他们能在照片中认出自己。故选B项。
14．细节理解题。根据第四段中的“The first type was a photo of themselves, while the second involved an unknown cleaner fish. The third type of picture was a photo of an unknown cleaner fish with the fish’s own face edited onto it. The fourth type of photo included its own body but with the face of an unknown cleaner fish. (第一种是他们自己的照片，第二种是一条不知名的清洁鱼。第三种类型的照片是一张不知名的清洁鱼的照片，上面编辑了这条鱼自己的脸。第四种类型的照片包括它自己的身体，但脸是一条不知名的清洁鱼。)”以及下文中的“They found that cleaner fish attacked only those photographs which did not have their own faces. (他们发现，清洁鱼只攻击那些没有自己面孔的照片。)”可知，这些清洁鱼只攻击没有自己面孔的照片，第二种和第四中照片中没有清洁鱼自己的照片，综合以上信息可知，这些清洁鱼会攻击第二种和第四种类型的照片。故选B项。
15．推理判断题。根据尾段中的“This study suggests that self-awareness may be far more widespread among animals than scientists once thought. People shouldn’t be surprised that fish could have a sense of self given that they have already been shown to have complex behavior including tool use and planning. (这项研究表明，动物的自我意识可能比科学家们曾经认为的要广泛得多。人们不应该对鱼有自我意识感到惊讶，因为它们已经被证明有复杂的行为，包括工具使用和计划。)”可知，这项研究表明动物的自我意识比科学家们曾经认为的还要广泛，它们已经被证明有复杂的行为，包括工具使用和计划，由此可知，作者对这项研究的态度是支持的。故选C项。
【答案】16．C 17．D 18．E 19．G 20．F

When it was time to continue our trip, I noticed the “ doorman” enjoying his meal. Upon seeing me, he stood up and thanked me heartily. He then extended his hand for a handshake and I gratefully accepted. I suddenly noticed the tears in his eyes—tears of gratitude. What happened next drew great astonishment: I gave the “doorman” a hug. But he pulled away, with tears streaming down his face.
Para. 2
Back in truck, I turned to my kids. It seemed that kids learnt a lot from what had happened just now. They were lost in thought deeply.

When was the last time you used a telephone box I mean to make an actual phone call — not to shelter from the rain. Ages ago, right The last time I used a phone box for its intended purpose was…2006. I was conducting auditions (试演) for my play in my tiny old shared house in London. Hoping to impress some talented actors to come and work for me for nothing, I spread some throws over the sofas and lit candles to make it seem a bit more ”young professional”.
As I rushed outdoors to empty the wastepaper baskets, the door swung shut behind me. Suddenly I was locked outside. My mobile phone was inside, but luckily there was a telephone box across the street. So, I called Directory Assistance, got put through to our landlady’s managing agent, and had a spare key sent to me with just enough time to get back in before the actors arrived.
As it has been many years since I last used one, I should hardly be surprised that then are no longer any public telephones near my house. The last one standing has just been turn into a “mini community library”: any passer-by can “borrow” a book from its shelves return it later, or replace it with another title from their own collection.
For a few months after the “library” opened, I didn’t bother taking a look, as I had assumed that it would be stuffed full of cheese love stories. Then I noticed folk conducting spring cleans dropping boxes of voluminous books on various subjects there. And these books were free. This unbeatable price-point encouraged me to experiment with dozens of titles that I would never normally consider buying. And I’ve discovered some great books!
If I ever get trapped outside my house again, my local telephone box will, sadly no longer be able to connect me with my keys. But it can certainly keep me entertained while I wait for my wife to rescue me.

If carbon dioxide(CO2) were a politician, it would be worried about its bad press. This greenhouse gas is the primary pollutant responsible for global warming. Scientists, leaders, and activists are trying to stop its production. This gas, however, also plays a key role in life on Earth.
Carbon helps form the protein and DNA found in living things. In the atmosphere, it combines with two oxygen atoms (原子) to form carbon dioxide. Carbon dioxide is necessary for photosynthesis (光合作用) . In the process, plants use energy from the sun to turn water and carbon dioxide into sugar. In return, plants give off oxygen. As carbon dioxide concentrations increase in the atmosphere, scientists are trying to employ photosynthesis to promote plant growth. Laboratory studies show a higher concentration of the gas is making some plants grow more quickly in certain conditions, but in the wild and on outdoor farms the overall benefit is unclear. In the Netherlands, some commercial greenhouses are experimenting with ways to send carbon dioxide released from industry into greenhouses along a particular way where plants use the extra gas as fertilizer (肥料).
The first person to assume the existence of carbon dioxide was 16th-century Belgian scientist Jan Baptist van Helmont. After coal was burned, he noted, the weight of the remains was lower than the coal’s initial weight, which means some mass had been lost in the process. He was the first scientist to recognize different gases present in the air we breathe. It wasn’t until 1896 that Swedish scientist Svante Arrhenius linked the carbon dioxide released from burning coal and oil to atmospheric warming.
Yet, despite its being plentiful in the atmosphere, we have been light on commercially produced carbon dioxide because of rising energy costs. As a result, carbonated drink (碳酸饮料) companies have had to raise prices or reduce production.
8．What function does CO2 have according to paragraph 2
A．Saving energy. B．Increasing fertilizer.
C．Supporting life. D．Commercializing agriculture.
9．Why is Jan Baptist van Helmont mentioned
A．To clarify the origins of CO2. B．To tell an unknown story.
C．To explain the applications of CO2. D．To show an early discovery.
10．What problem do carbonated drink companies face
A．Commercial CO2 is in short supply. B．Sales of their drinks are extremely poor.
C．It’s difficult to increase their production. D．There’s too much CO2 in the atmosphere.
11．Which can be the best title for the text
A．Climate Change: Affected by CO2 B．CO2: Both an Enemy and Friend
C．Greenhouse Gas: Having a Bad Press D．Carbon: Misunderstood Substance
It is a well-known fact that not all animals have the ability to instantly recognize themselves in the mirror. However, a few animals can recognize themselves, such as dolphins, Asian elephants, and of course humans! A species of fish with the ability to recognize itself in the mirror is commonly known as the cleaner fish.
Found in the Indian Ocean and the Pacific Ocean, cleaner fish exist as “cleaning stations” for other fish (known as hosts). They “clean” the dead skin and parasites (寄生虫) from other fish. This is of benefit for cleaner fish, which get a meal, as well as for the other fish species, which are freed from parasites. Such a type of relationship is known as mutualism.
Recently, a group of scientists in Japan found that cleaner fish might have the ability to identify (识别) themselves in photographs! It was already known that cleaner fish could recognize themselves in mirrors and would attack unknown cleaner fish. So, the team wanted to test whether the same was seen in the case of photos as well.
Thus, the team of scientists showed four types of photos to the cleaner fish. The first type was a photo of themselves, while the second involved an unknown cleaner fish. The third type of picture was a photo of an unknown cleaner fish with the fish’s own face edited onto it. The fourth type of photo included its own body but with the face of an unknown cleaner fish.
They found that cleaner fish attacked only those photographs which did not have their own faces. This result was similar to the ability of humans to recognize each other based on their faces and not by their bodies.
This study suggests that self-awareness may be far more widespread among animals than scientists once thought. People shouldn’t be surprised that fish could have a sense of self given that they have already been shown to have complex behavior including tool use and planning.
12．What does the underlined word “mutualism” probably mean in paragraph 2
A．A host-parasite relationship. B．A master-servant relationship.
C．Dependence on each other. D．Beneficial cleaning behavior.
13．What is the new finding about cleaner fish
A．They can identify themselves in the mirror.
B．They can recognize themselves in the images.
C．They have the same sense of self as humans.
D．They have a better sense of self than some animals.
14．Which types of photos would cleaner fish most probably attack
A．The first and second types. B．The second and fourth types.
C．The first and third types. D．The second and third types.
15．What is the author’s attitude toward the study
A．Unclear. B．Doubtful. C．Supportive. D．Unconcerned.
Food waste is a major issue in agriculture and in homes. If you grow your own food, the last thing you want is to let your hard work go to waste. 16 It begins with the plants you choose, and goes right through to preservation (保存) of your harvests. Here are some tips for you.
When planning a food-producing garden, it’s very important to choose the right plants for the right places. Waste is far more likely to happen if you are growing plants that are not suited to the climate, soil, and growing conditions. 17 Make sure they do not just provide food today, but can also adapt to the changing climate. If you make the right plant choices, you are likely to get a good harvest.
Sometimes cooperation is key. People may often have more seeds (种子) than they really need, particularly in small gardens. However, seeds are usually only viable (能存活的) for a certain length of time. 18 And you can also share skills and knowledge with each other.
19 You might, for example, grow some strawberries inside a greenhouse, with others outdoors. Those grown under cover will typically be ready to harvest a little earlier. Or you can grow different varieties of plants.
Once you have grown your crops, it is important to be ready to preserve what needs to be preserved. This can happen in a range of different ways. You can freeze, pickle (腌制), or can a wide range of garden produce. 20
A．Communities can come together to harvest crops.
B．Many common weeds or flowers can be sources of food.
C．Preventing food waste in the garden is a long term process.
D．So think about how you can create good systems in your garden.
E．Sharing them between households can avoid wasting their potential.
F．Make sure you know how to do so properly when harvest time comes.
G．Scheduling different harvest periods for certain crops can help avoid waste.

On a trip to California, my family stopped for lunch. As we walked toward the entrance to the restaurant, a man, with messy beard and dirty hair, jumped up from a bench and opened the door for us. Regardless of his appearance, he greeted us in a friendly way.
Once inside, my daughters whispered, “Mom, he smells.” After we ordered our lunch, I explained , telling the kids to look beyond the dirt. We then watched other customers approach the restaurant but many ignored him. Seeing this rudeness truly upset me. The day I became a mother, I had resolved to set a good example for my children. Yet sometimes when things didn’t go right, being a good example was tough. When our meal arrived, I realized I had left the car-sick pills in the truck. With the windiest trip ahead, the kids needed them, so I excused myself from the meal and went to get them.
Just then, the “doorman” was opening the door for couple. They rushed past him without even acknowledging his presence. Letting them in first, I said a loud “thank you” to him as I exited. He seemed a bit surprised, and then smiled back me, unnoticed, even showing a little shyness and bitterness.
When I returned, we talked a bit, He said he was not allowed inside unless he purchased food. I went back and told my family his story. Then I asked our waitress to add one soup and sandwich. The kids looked puzzled as we had already eaten, but when I said the other was for the “doorman”, they smiled.

参考答案
【答案】1．A 2．C 3．C
【分析】这是一篇应用文。文章推荐了几部2024年的电影。
【解析】1．推理判断题。根据第二段“Near the outset of Gints’ exquisite animated feature, a grey cat is swept up by a flood, finding itself stuck with a few other animals on a tiny ark of sorts. Featuring cross-species cooperation in the face of a climate crisis, the filmmaker works miracles with computer graphics sending what look like hand-drawn animals into photorealistic backgrounds.(在Gints这部精致的动画片的开头，一只灰猫被洪水卷走，发现自己和其他几只动物被困在了一个类似小方舟的地方。影片展现了在气候危机面前跨物种的合作，导演用计算机图形创造了奇迹，将看似手绘的动物融入了逼真的背景中)”可推知，电影《Flow》的剧情围绕动物在气候危机中的合作展开，且明确提到跨物种合作。动画形式虽可能吸引儿童，但影片主题（气候危机、生存困境）和视觉风格（将手绘动物融入真实背景）更偏向成人或对动物议题感兴趣的观众。故选A。
2．细节理解题。根据第三段“The director has adapted Sigrid Nunez’s novel What Are You Going Through for his first English-language feature, and none of his renowned sensibilities are lost in translation.(导演将Sigrid Nunez的小说《你正在经历什么》改编成了他的首部英语长片，他著名的细腻情感在翻译过程中丝毫没有丢失)”可知，《隔壁房间》这部电影倾向于忠实于原著。故选C。
3．推理判断题。根据第一段“Whether you plan to head out to the theater or binge from the couch, our critics have gathered together their favorite films of 2024. Have at it.(无论你是打算去电影院还是窝在沙发上看电影，我们的影评人都为你精选了2024年他们最喜欢的电影。尽情享受吧)”和下文对四部电影的具体介绍可推测出，这篇文章是一篇电影推荐。故选C。
【答案】4．B 5．A 6．B 7．C
【分析】这是一篇记叙文。随着手机的普及，电话亭渐渐地被人们遗忘，作者家附近的最后一个电话亭被改造成了“迷你图书馆”，作者偶然发现那里有很多不错的免费书籍，这让作者觉得很棒。
【解析】4．词句猜测题。根据第一段第五句“I was conducting auditions (试演) for my play in my tiny old shared house in London.(我当时在伦敦我那狭小的合租房子里为我的剧本进行试演。)”可知，此处是指使“我”的合租房看起来更“年轻专业”一点，所以it代指“合租房”。故选B。
5．细节理解题。根据第二段第四句“So, I called Directory Assistance, got put through to our landlady’s managing agent, and had a spare key sent to me with just enough time to get back in before the actors arrived.(所以，我打电话给电话查号台，接通了女房东的经纪人，他们给了我一把备用钥匙，刚好来得及在演员们到来之前回去。)”可知，作者在2006年使用电话亭是为了拨打紧急电话。故选A。
6．细节理解题。根据第三段第二句“The last one standing has just been turn into a “mini community library”: any passer-by can “borrow” a book from its shelves return it later, or replace it with another title from their own collection.(最后一个被改造成了一个“迷你社区图书馆”：任何路过的人都可以从它的书架上“借”书，以后还回来，或者用自己收藏的另一本书来替换。)”可知，任何人都可以为“迷你社区图书馆”的捐赠图书。故选B。
7．细节理解题。根据第四段最后四句“Then I noticed fork conducting spring cleans dropping boxes of voluminous books on various subjects there. And these books were free. This unbeatable price-point encouraged me to experiment with dozens of titles that I would never normally consider buying. And I’ve discovered some great books!(然后我注意到福克正在进行春季大扫除，把各种主题的大书一箱箱地扔到那里。而且这些书是免费的。这个无与伦比的价格点鼓励我尝试许多我通常不会考虑购买的标题。我还发现了一些很棒的书！)”可知，作者发现“迷你图书馆”里有很多免费的很棒的书，所以开始使用。故选C。
【答案】8．C 9．D 10．A 11．B
【分析】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述的是二氧化碳(CO2)这种温室气体是造成全球变暖的主要污染物，但是这种气体对地球上的生命也起着关键作用。
【解析】8．推理判断题。根据文章第二段“Carbon helps form the protein and DNA found in living things. In the atmosphere, it combines with two oxygen atoms (原子) to form carbon dioxide. Carbon dioxide is necessary for photosynthesis (光合作用). In the process, plants use energy from the sun to turn water and carbon dioxide into sugar (碳有助于形成生物体内的蛋白质和DNA。在大气中，它与两个氧原子结合形成二氧化碳。二氧化碳是光合作用所必需的。在这个过程中，植物利用来自太阳的能量将水和二氧化碳转化为糖)”可知，二氧化碳有益于生物，具有维持生命的功能，故选C。
9．推理判断题。根据文章第三段“The first person to assume the existence of carbon dioxide was 16th-century Belgian scientist Jan Baptist van Helmont. After coal was burned, he noted, the weight of the remains was lower than the coal’s initial weight, which means some mass had been lost in the process. He was the first scientist to recognize different gases present in the air we breathe.(第一个假设二氧化碳存在的人是16世纪的比利时科学家Jan Baptist van Helmont。他指出，煤燃烧后，残留物的重量低于煤的初始重量，这意味着在燃烧过程中损失了一些质量。他是第一个认识到我们呼吸的空气中存在不同气体的科学家)”可知，Jan Baptist van Helmont是第一个认识到我们呼吸的空气中存在不同气体的科学家，提到他是为了说明早期的发现。故选D。
10．细节理解题。根据文章最后一段“Yet, despite its being plentiful in the atmosphere, we have been light on commercially produced carbon dioxide because of rising energy costs. As a result, carbonated drink(碳酸饮料) companies have had to raise prices or reduce production.(然而，尽管大气中有大量的二氧化碳，但由于能源成本的上升，我们对商业生产的二氧化碳的利用很少。因此，碳酸饮料公司不得不提高价格或减少产量)”可知，商用二氧化碳供应不足，碳酸饮料公司不得不提高价格或减少产量。故选A。
11．主旨大意题。根据文章第一段“If carbon dioxide (CO2) were a politician, it would be worried about its bad press. This greenhouse gas is the primary pollutant responsible for global warming. Scientists, leaders, and activists are trying to stop its production. This gas, however, also plays a key role in life on Earth.(如果二氧化碳(CO2)是一位政治家，它会担心自己的负面报道。这种温室气体是造成全球变暖的主要污染物。科学家、领导人和活动人士正试图阻止它的生产。然而，这种气体对地球上的生命也起着关键作用)”以及后文可知，文章主要讲述的是二氧化碳(CO2)这种温室气体是造成全球变暖的主要污染物，但是这种气体对地球上的生命也起着关键作用。由此可知，B项：CO2: Both an Enemy and Friend(二氧化碳：既是敌人又是朋友)适合作本文最佳标题。故选B。
【答案】12．C 13．B 14．B 15．C
【分析】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍的是一项研究表明被称为清洁鱼的鱼能够在镜子中认出自己，动物的自我意识可能比科学家们曾经认为的要广泛得多。
【解析】12．词义猜测题。根据第二段中划线部分前的“They “clean” the dead skin and parasites (寄生虫) from other fish. This is of benefit for cleaner fish, which get a meal, as well as for the other fish species, which are freed from parasites. (它们“清理”其他鱼类身上的死皮和寄生虫。这对清洁鱼来说是有好处的，因为它们有饭吃，对其他鱼类来说也是如此，因为它们没有寄生虫。)”可知，清洁鱼清理其它鱼身上的死皮和寄生虫可以有饭吃，而对其他的鱼来说也是有好处的，所以，双方都是互利的，由此可知，这种关系被称为“互利关系”，划线单词的意思应与“互利”意义相近。故选C项。
13．推理判断题。根据第三段中的“Recently, a group of scientists in Japan found that cleaner fish might have the ability to identify (识别) themselves in photographs! (最近，日本的一组科学家发现，清洁鱼可能有能力在照片中识别自己(识别)!)”和“So, the team wanted to test whether the same was seen in the case of photos as well. (因此，研究小组想测试一下照片是否也会出现同样的情况。)”可知，最近日本的一组科学家发现清洁鱼有在照片中识别自己的能力，因此而进行一项实验测试，结合倒数第二段中的“They found that cleaner fish attacked only those photographs which did not have their own faces. (他们发现，清洁鱼只攻击那些没有自己面孔的照片。)”可知，研究发现，清洁鱼只攻击没有自己面孔的照片，由此可知，新研究发现的是他们能在照片中认出自己。故选B项。
14．细节理解题。根据第四段中的“The first type was a photo of themselves, while the second involved an unknown cleaner fish. The third type of picture was a photo of an unknown cleaner fish with the fish’s own face edited onto it. The fourth type of photo included its own body but with the face of an unknown cleaner fish. (第一种是他们自己的照片，第二种是一条不知名的清洁鱼。第三种类型的照片是一张不知名的清洁鱼的照片，上面编辑了这条鱼自己的脸。第四种类型的照片包括它自己的身体，但脸是一条不知名的清洁鱼。)”以及下文中的“They found that cleaner fish attacked only those photographs which did not have their own faces. (他们发现，清洁鱼只攻击那些没有自己面孔的照片。)”可知，这些清洁鱼只攻击没有自己面孔的照片，第二种和第四中照片中没有清洁鱼自己的照片，综合以上信息可知，这些清洁鱼会攻击第二种和第四种类型的照片。故选B项。
15．推理判断题。根据尾段中的“This study suggests that self-awareness may be far more widespread among animals than scientists once thought. People shouldn’t be surprised that fish could have a sense of self given that they have already been shown to have complex behavior including tool use and planning. (这项研究表明，动物的自我意识可能比科学家们曾经认为的要广泛得多。人们不应该对鱼有自我意识感到惊讶，因为它们已经被证明有复杂的行为，包括工具使用和计划。)”可知，这项研究表明动物的自我意识比科学家们曾经认为的还要广泛，它们已经被证明有复杂的行为，包括工具使用和计划，由此可知，作者对这项研究的态度是支持的。故选C项。
【答案】16．C 17．D 18．E 19．G 20．F

18．上文“People may often have more seeds (种子) than they really need, particularly in small gardens. However, seeds are usually only viable (能存活的) for a certain length of time.(人们可能经常拥有比他们真正需要的更多的种子，特别是在小花园里。然而，种子通常只能存活一段时间)”提到，种子数量多且存活时间短的问题，结合下文“And you can also share skills and knowledge with each other.(你们也可以互相分享技能和知识)”中的关键提示“also share”可知，空处是关于分享多出的种子，E项“在家庭之间共享它们可以避免浪费它们的潜力”符合语境，故选E。
19．根据本段内容“You might, for example, grow some strawberries inside a greenhouse, with others outdoors. Those grown under cover will typically be ready to harvest a little earlier. Or you can grow different varieties of plants.(例如，你可以在温室里种一些草莓，在室外种一些。那些在掩蔽下生长的植物通常会提前一点准备好收获。或者你可以种植不同种类的植物)”可知，本段主要讲想办法让植物的收获时间不一样，通过这样的方式来避免浪费，G项“为某些作物安排不同的收获期可以帮助避免浪费”符合语境，故选G。
20．根据本段首句“Once you have grown your crops, it is important to be ready to preserve what needs to be preserved.(一旦你种植了作物，重要的是要准备好保存需要保存的东西)”以及空前“You can freeze, pickle (腌制), or can a wide range of garden produce.(你可以冷冻，腌制，或者可以制作各种各样的菜园产品)”可知，本段是说收获后要好好保存，空前提到了一些保存的方法，F项“当收获季节到来的时候，确保你知道如何正确地这样做”符合语境，故选F。

62．【答案】Para. 1
When it was time to continue our trip, I noticed the “ doorman” enjoying his meal. Upon seeing me, he stood up and thanked me heartily. He then extended his hand for a handshake and I gratefully accepted. I suddenly noticed the tears in his eyes—tears of gratitude. What happened next drew great astonishment: I gave the “doorman” a hug. But he pulled away, with tears streaming down his face.
Para. 2
Back in truck, I turned to my kids. It seemed that kids learnt a lot from what had happened just now. They were lost in thought deeply. While we can’t choose many things in life, we can choose when to show gratitude. I said thanks to a man who had simply held open a door for me, and also said thanks for that opportunity to teach my children by example. Being thankful for the unfortunate ones, we can bring warmth to them; showing smiles to the helpful ones, we can spread the kindness to more people in need.
