Spring is a great time to get away from the hustle and bustle (熙攘喧闹) of everyday life and take a well-deserved break closer to home. Discover our top four destinations for spring.
Cyprus
Temperatures tend to be around 17℃ to 23℃ in May without the usual unbearable heat seen in summer. The villages are particularly pretty, with their blooming wildflowers! It’s an ideal time to relax on quieter beaches, such as the family friendly Makronissos Beach in Ayia Napa.
Lanzarote
With average temperatures of 19℃, you can comfortably hit its beaches. You’ll find several fairs and festivals throughout the island. It’s also the perfect climate to hike Lanzarote’s volcanoes, and witness natural delights.

During 20 years of working at his family’s supermarket, José Luis-Reig, known as Pep, never gave a thought to the world of academia(学术界). It was only when visiting the classrooms of universities with his two teenage daughters that he suddenly felt himself at home among ‘the atmosphere of learning’.
After school Pep had intended to study biology but was called on to help run the family business instead. When he was at school, he developed a reputation for helping others and so was invited onto the local radio, where the presenter said. “You’re like a young psychologist(心理学家).”
Pep was no stranger to change. The family business had originally been a sawmill(锯木厂). But when Pep, then 27, was asked if he wanted to take over, he decided to change the mill into the town’s first supermarket.
One day in the shop, the radio presenter’s comment came back to him. After running the idea past his family, he applied to a university in Palma to study psychology and, aged 46, was accepted.
“I had to get used to being much older than the other students.” he says. “But I ended up helping the others because I’d had more life experience.” Pep came top of his year and impressed his tutors(导师)so much that he was offered a job researching and teaching. Now 52, and still in the job. He adds, “My only regret is not having done it earlier.”
The traditional view used to be that, while making changes in your youth was acceptable, you should then settle on a career and stick to it. But today record numbers of 50-and 60-somethings are choosing to take on new challenges. Job satisfaction becomes increasingly significant when you’ve only got a few miles on the clock.
4．Why did Pep determine to return to school at the age of 46
A．He was eager to help others.
B．He was tired of staying at the same job for so long.
C．He decided to earn a degree and make more money.
D．Accompanying his daughters to universities inspired him to learn.
5．What caused Pep to quit his dream of further studying
A．Failing to achieve excellent academic results.
B．Getting bored with the atmosphere of learning.
C．The desire to try his hand at the commercial market.
D．The request of taking over the family business from home.
6．How does Pep feel about his present situation
A．Dissatisfied. B．Appreciative. C．Doubtful. D．Confused.
7．What does the text intend to convey
A．Great hopes make great man. B．A brave attempt is half success.
C．Do what you say, say what you do! D．It’s never too late to fulfill your dream.
An hour’s extra sleep a night can shave 270 calories off people’s daily diets, new research suggests—the equivalent of around three chocolate digestive biscuits. Over three years, this could lead to a weight loss of 26 pounds—simply by sleeping more, the researchers said.
A team from the University of Chicago wanted to look at how sleep interacts with obesity and so carried out a clinical trial with 80 adults. Writing in the journal Jama Internal Medicine, they found that young, overweight adults who habitually slept fewer than 6.5 hours a night were able to add an extra 1.2 hours of sleep per night after undergoing counselling to improve their sleeping habits.
The results showed that getting more sleep reduced people’s overall intake by an average of 270 calories per day, with some people consuming 500 fewer calories. Dr Esra Tasali, from the University of Chicago’s sleep centre, said the study had not intended to look at weight loss.
“But even within just two weeks, we have quantified evidence showing a decrease in caloric intake and a negative energy balance—caloric intake is less than calories burned.” she said. “If healthy sleep habits are kept over longer period. this would lead to clinically important weight loss over time. Many people are working hard to find ways to decrease their caloric intake to lose weight—well, just by sleeping more, you may be able to reduce it considerably.
The study did not attempt to restrict people’s diets. Instead, they slept in their own beds, tracked their sleep with wearable devices, and otherwise followed a normal lifestyle without any instructions on diet or exercise. Dr Tasali said that limiting the use of devices such as mobile phones before bedtime helped people get more sleep. She added. “We saw that after just a single sleep counselling session. participants could change their bedtime habits enough to lead to an increase in sleep time.”
8．Why did the researchers carry out the study
A．To find how to reduce weight. B．To know the proper sleep time.
C．To learn about healthy sleep habits. D．To study the link between sleep and obesity.
9．What’s Dr Tasali’s attitude to the findings of the study
A．Doubtful. B．Confident. C．Negative. D．Ambiguous.
10．What can we infer from the last paragraph
A．Participants should go on a restricted diet and do more exercise.
B．Limiting the use of digital devices is the best way to get enough sleep.
C．Participants tracked their sleep without disturbing their normal lifestyle.
D．A single sleep counselling session is useless for participants to change.
11．What’s the best title of the text
A．A Strange Way to Lose Your Weight
B．Young and Overweight Adults Need More Sleep
C．Forming a Regular Sleep Habit Is Good for Your Health
D．Cut 270 Calories by Sleeping for an Extra Hour Every Night
Despite the fact that there has never been so much wealth or so many wealthy people in the world, many of the world’s poor people still live in material and energy poverty. Could you and I cut back on our consumption (消耗) so as to make some space for others to increase theirs
I am sure we could. But, unfortunately, everything about our economic systems is set up to make us believe and behave otherwise. The default (默认) mindset is that there is nothing wrong with wanting ever newer and more expensive things as long as we can afford them.
Look around you for a moment. No society anywhere before lived like this. Further, since our spending must necessarily be someone else’s income, we tell ourselves that we actually make the world a better place every time we buy another pair of shoes or trade in a car for the latest model. And that’s the tug (拉) of war that plays itself out cruelly in our lives, as one side of our age cries out “less”, and from the other side comes the answering cry “more”.
Of course, wanting to live a better life is deeply ingrained in human nature. Otherwise, we would never have generated the progress that has brought us to our present station.
But now we should think deeply about how and why we consume.
After all, even the earliest thinkers in the history of economic—including Adam Smith—thought, having more does not always translate into being happier. Evidence shows that many people in the developing world, despite being hard-up, report being just as happy as those in the materially rich societies of the West.
So what now The answer, perhaps, is to try to be rich in the enjoyment of things, not in the accumulation (堆积) of them. A pair of good shoes, lightly creased (起皱) but also carefully polished (擦亮) once a month a meal cooked at home instead of a trip to McDonald’s—such as these lie our act of saving from the virus of compulsive (强迫性的) consumption.
12．What can we infer from the first two paragraphs
A．People tend to buy things unreasonably.
B．People refuse to cut down on consumption.
C．People all face material and energy poverty.
D．People believe in political and economic systems.
13．What does the underlined word “ingrained” in paragraph 4 probably mean
A．Held. B．Rooted. C．Changed. D．Possessed.
14．What does the author suggest
A．Trying to be rich. B．The more, the better.
C．Enjoying what we have. D．Focusing on the compulsive consumption.
15．In which section of a newspaper may this text appear
A．Entertainment. B．Health. C．Education. D．Economy.
First impressions are important, but everyone has an off day or makes mistakes in social situations. It might be more of a challenge to change how you are perceived. 16
Apologize. If your first meeting was affected by some type of mistake, reach out and apologize. It shows that you are aware of your mistake and willing to take steps to overcome it. 17
Explain what happened. You don’t want to make excuses. But it can be helpful to provide an honest explanation for why your first meeting went poorly. You might explain that you were nervous, that you weren’t feeling well, that you were distracted, or that you were feeling stressed about something unrelated. 18 It makes the other person better empathize (有同感) with your situation.
Suggest another meeting. If you won’t see them in another setting, ask if you can have another opportunity to let them get to see the real you. 19 For example, don’t continue pursuing a potential romantic partner after they have told you they are not interested. Don’t take it personally. Instead, see it as a learning opportunity and try to apply those lessons when you meet someone new.
20 If you do get another opportunity to overcome a poor first impression, make sure you are honest and consistent in your future interactions. Let the other person know you completely in terms of context and situation. If it’s a second date, let them see the qualities that make you a great romantic partner, such as warmth, kindness, humour, and attentiveness (周到).
A．Let them see the real you.
B．Show interest in others.
C．Smiling, for example, can help express warmth and interest.
D．No matter the cause, an honest explanation may be helpful.
E．But there are still things you can do to overcome a bad first impression.
F．Then you can improve the impression the other person has of you.
G．However, be willing to respect the other person’s request if they decline your offer.

三、语法填空（本大题共1小题）
阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。
A new, small robotic camera designed to be swallowed for use in medical examinations was 36 (recent) demonstrated at a conference in Canada. The device called PillBot can be guided through a body remotely, meaning electronically from outside. Its creators hope the device will replace traditional endoscopies(内窥镜检查). An endoscopy is when a camera attached to a wire is directed down the throat and into a sleeping 37 (patient) stomach.
The PillBot is designed to be the first motorized endoscopic camera. Here 38 (be)how developers say it works: A patient does not eat for one day, then swallows the PillBot with lots of water. The PillBot acts like 39 small submarine(潜艇) controlled by a wireless remote control. When the exam is completed, the body will expel(排出) the PillBot 40 the same way it expels other solid waste.
Dr. Vivek Kumbhari is co-founder of the company. It is the latest step towards his larger goal of 41 (make) complex medicine more accessible.
If endoscopies can 42 (move) from a hospital setting to a patient’s home, he said. “then I think we have achieved that goal.” The device provides “a safer, 43 (comfortable)approach,” he added.
Alex Luebke is the co-founder of Endiatx. He said the PillBot can help people in rural areas 44 medical centres and treatment are lacking. The micro-robotic pill is undergoing testing. If 45 (approve), the PillBot could be available by 2026.

五、书面表达（本大题共1小题）
47．阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
It was the golden autumn when a young musician was touring all around the world. The moment he arrived at a small town lying along a clear and sweet river, a feeling of ease and comfort embraced him. The peaceful night fell, appealing to the young musician. He was casually (随便地) out walking and passing a cottage with the door open, when he heard someone inside playing the piano. Though it didn’t go smoothly, he was sure that it was just one of his compositions.
The musician stopped to listen, but the music stopped too. He got closer and overheard a conversation going—“It is too difficult! I can never play it well by myself! I’ve only heard someone else play it several times. It’s far from enough. How I wish I would gain a chance to attend a concert! What if it is played by the musician himself ”—a girl murmured (低语) and sighed. A man continued, “I can’t agree more, but we can’t afford to attend a concert. We are so poor.” “Sorry, Brother,” explained the girl, “Please let it go. I didn’t mean to. I was just kidding.” Though she tried to keep a calm tone, both the brother and the young musician could tell how much she wished to hear a real musician play it properly.
The young musician pushed the door and got into the house. With a single candle, a man was making shoes while a young lady was sitting at the piano. Nothing inviting was in sight except the old piano. What was unexpected was that the beautiful young lady was blind. The brother was too astonished to pronounce a word. Kind but embarrassed, he smiled at the stranger.
The musician smiled and nodded, approaching the piano slowly. Nervous and frightened, the brother dropped the shoe he was working on, jumped to his feet and rushed to protect his sister. “What are you doing Keep off my sister!” The young lady was alarmed at the noise. She got off the piano, with head hanging and shoulders shaking.
注意：
1.续写词数应为150左右;
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Not until then did the young musician realize he was misunderstood.

The default(默认)mindset is that there is nothing wrong with wanting ever newer and more expensive things as long as we can afford them.(但不幸的是，我们的经济体系的一切都是为了让我们相信并采取相反的行动。默认的心态是，只要我们能负担得起，想要更新、更昂贵的东西没有错)”可知，前两段中提出了让大家减少消费的倡议，但由于受到些观念的影响，人们觉得只要支付得起，想消费更新、更贵的东西是没错的。由此推知，人们倾向于不理性地消费。故选A。
13．词句猜测题。根据第四段中划线词后面的句子“Otherwise, we would never have generated the progress that has brought us to our present station.(否则，我们就永远不可能取得使我们走到现在这一步的进步)”可知，想过上更好的生活的想法在人们心中是根深蒂固的，否则我们永远不可能取得当下如此大的进步。由此可知ingrained意为“扎根；使根深蒂固”。故选B。

【分析】本文是说明文。文章主要说明了如何克服不好的第一印象，给出了具体的建议和方法。
【解析】16．空处位于首段段尾，承接上文，引出本文主题，根据前文“First impressions are important, but everyone has an off day or makes mistakes in social situations. It might be more of a challenge to change how you are perceived.(第一印象很重要，但每个人都有不顺心的时候，或者在社交场合犯错的时候。改变别人对你的看法可能更有挑战性)”可知，E项“But there are still things you can do to overcome a bad first impression.(但是你仍然可以做一些事情来克服糟糕的第一印象)”和上文构成转折关系，并引出本文主题，克服糟糕的第一印象。故选E项。
17．设空位于段尾，是对前文的总结，根据前文“Apologize. If your first meeting was affected by some type of mistake, reach out and apologize. It shows that you are aware of your mistake and willing to take steps to overcome it.(道歉。如果你的第一次会面受到了某种错误的影响，那就主动去道歉。这表明你意识到自己的错误，并愿意采取措施来克服它)”可知，本段讲述主动道歉，改正错误来改变糟糕的第一印象，所以F项“Then you can improve the impression the other person has of you.(然后你可以改善别人对你的印象)”是前文方法的结果，符合文意。故选F项。
18．根据前文“Explain what happened. You don’t want to make excuses. But it can be helpful to provide an honest explanation for why your first meeting went poorly. You might explain that you were nervous, that you weren’t feeling well, that you were distracted, or that you were feeling stressed about something unrelated.(解释发生了什么。你不想找借口。但如果你能诚实地解释为什么你的第一次会面不顺利，那就很有帮助了。你可能会解释说你很紧张，你感觉不舒服，你心烦意乱，或者你对一些不相关的事情感到压力)”可知，本段主题是解释发生了什么，所以D项“No matter the cause, an honest explanation may be helpful.(不管是什么原因，一个诚实的解释可能会有所帮助)”符合本段主题，其中explanation为同词复现。故选D项。
19．根据前文“Suggest another meeting. If you won’t see them in another setting, ask if you can have another opportunity to let them get to see the real you.(建议另一次会面。如果你不想在其他场合见到他们，那就问他们是否有机会让他们看到真实的你)”以及后文“For example, don’t continue pursuing a potential romantic partner after they have told you they are not interested. Don’t take it personally.(例如，在一个潜在的浪漫伴侣告诉你他们对你不感兴趣之后，不要继续追求他们。不要往心里去)”可知，前文提到请求另一次机会，但是后文举例说如果被拒绝，就不要继续，所以空处应提到这点，所以G项“However, be willing to respect the other person’s request if they decline your offer.(然而，如果对方拒绝你的提议，你要尊重对方的要求)”承接上文，引出下文举例，符合文意。故选G项。
20．空处位于段首，为本段中心句，根据后文“If you do get another opportunity to overcome a poor first impression, make sure you are honest and consistent in your future interactions. Let the other person know you completely in terms of context and situation.(如果你确实得到了另一个机会来克服糟糕的第一印象，确保你在未来的互动中诚实和一致。让对方完全了解你的背景和情况)”可知，本段主要讲述展示真正的自己，所以A项“Let them see the real you.(让他们看到真实的你)”符合本段主题。故选A项。

During 20 years of working at his family’s supermarket, José Luis-Reig, known as Pep, never gave a thought to the world of academia(学术界). It was only when visiting the classrooms of universities with his two teenage daughters that he suddenly felt himself at home among ‘the atmosphere of learning’.
After school Pep had intended to study biology but was called on to help run the family business instead. When he was at school, he developed a reputation for helping others and so was invited onto the local radio, where the presenter said. “You’re like a young psychologist(心理学家).”
Pep was no stranger to change. The family business had originally been a sawmill(锯木厂). But when Pep, then 27, was asked if he wanted to take over, he decided to change the mill into the town’s first supermarket.
One day in the shop, the radio presenter’s comment came back to him. After running the idea past his family, he applied to a university in Palma to study psychology and, aged 46, was accepted.
“I had to get used to being much older than the other students.” he says. “But I ended up helping the others because I’d had more life experience.” Pep came top of his year and impressed his tutors(导师)so much that he was offered a job researching and teaching. Now 52, and still in the job. He adds, “My only regret is not having done it earlier.”
The traditional view used to be that, while making changes in your youth was acceptable, you should then settle on a career and stick to it. But today record numbers of 50-and 60-somethings are choosing to take on new challenges. Job satisfaction becomes increasingly significant when you’ve only got a few miles on the clock.
4．Why did Pep determine to return to school at the age of 46
A．He was eager to help others.
B．He was tired of staying at the same job for so long.
C．He decided to earn a degree and make more money.
D．Accompanying his daughters to universities inspired him to learn.
5．What caused Pep to quit his dream of further studying
A．Failing to achieve excellent academic results.
B．Getting bored with the atmosphere of learning.
C．The desire to try his hand at the commercial market.
D．The request of taking over the family business from home.
6．How does Pep feel about his present situation
A．Dissatisfied. B．Appreciative. C．Doubtful. D．Confused.
7．What does the text intend to convey
A．Great hopes make great man. B．A brave attempt is half success.
C．Do what you say, say what you do! D．It’s never too late to fulfill your dream.
An hour’s extra sleep a night can shave 270 calories off people’s daily diets, new research suggests—the equivalent of around three chocolate digestive biscuits. Over three years, this could lead to a weight loss of 26 pounds—simply by sleeping more, the researchers said.
A team from the University of Chicago wanted to look at how sleep interacts with obesity and so carried out a clinical trial with 80 adults. Writing in the journal Jama Internal Medicine, they found that young, overweight adults who habitually slept fewer than 6.5 hours a night were able to add an extra 1.2 hours of sleep per night after undergoing counselling to improve their sleeping habits.
The results showed that getting more sleep reduced people’s overall intake by an average of 270 calories per day, with some people consuming 500 fewer calories. Dr Esra Tasali, from the University of Chicago’s sleep centre, said the study had not intended to look at weight loss.
“But even within just two weeks, we have quantified evidence showing a decrease in caloric intake and a negative energy balance—caloric intake is less than calories burned.” she said. “If healthy sleep habits are kept over longer period. this would lead to clinically important weight loss over time. Many people are working hard to find ways to decrease their caloric intake to lose weight—well, just by sleeping more, you may be able to reduce it considerably.
The study did not attempt to restrict people’s diets. Instead, they slept in their own beds, tracked their sleep with wearable devices, and otherwise followed a normal lifestyle without any instructions on diet or exercise. Dr Tasali said that limiting the use of devices such as mobile phones before bedtime helped people get more sleep. She added. “We saw that after just a single sleep counselling session. participants could change their bedtime habits enough to lead to an increase in sleep time.”
8．Why did the researchers carry out the study
A．To find how to reduce weight. B．To know the proper sleep time.
C．To learn about healthy sleep habits. D．To study the link between sleep and obesity.
9．What’s Dr Tasali’s attitude to the findings of the study
A．Doubtful. B．Confident. C．Negative. D．Ambiguous.
10．What can we infer from the last paragraph
A．Participants should go on a restricted diet and do more exercise.
B．Limiting the use of digital devices is the best way to get enough sleep.
C．Participants tracked their sleep without disturbing their normal lifestyle.
D．A single sleep counselling session is useless for participants to change.
11．What’s the best title of the text
A．A Strange Way to Lose Your Weight
B．Young and Overweight Adults Need More Sleep
C．Forming a Regular Sleep Habit Is Good for Your Health
D．Cut 270 Calories by Sleeping for an Extra Hour Every Night
Despite the fact that there has never been so much wealth or so many wealthy people in the world, many of the world’s poor people still live in material and energy poverty. Could you and I cut back on our consumption (消耗) so as to make some space for others to increase theirs
I am sure we could. But, unfortunately, everything about our economic systems is set up to make us believe and behave otherwise. The default (默认) mindset is that there is nothing wrong with wanting ever newer and more expensive things as long as we can afford them.
Look around you for a moment. No society anywhere before lived like this. Further, since our spending must necessarily be someone else’s income, we tell ourselves that we actually make the world a better place every time we buy another pair of shoes or trade in a car for the latest model. And that’s the tug (拉) of war that plays itself out cruelly in our lives, as one side of our age cries out “less”, and from the other side comes the answering cry “more”.
Of course, wanting to live a better life is deeply ingrained in human nature. Otherwise, we would never have generated the progress that has brought us to our present station.
But now we should think deeply about how and why we consume.
After all, even the earliest thinkers in the history of economic—including Adam Smith—thought, having more does not always translate into being happier. Evidence shows that many people in the developing world, despite being hard-up, report being just as happy as those in the materially rich societies of the West.
So what now The answer, perhaps, is to try to be rich in the enjoyment of things, not in the accumulation (堆积) of them. A pair of good shoes, lightly creased (起皱) but also carefully polished (擦亮) once a month a meal cooked at home instead of a trip to McDonald’s—such as these lie our act of saving from the virus of compulsive (强迫性的) consumption.
12．What can we infer from the first two paragraphs
A．People tend to buy things unreasonably.
B．People refuse to cut down on consumption.
C．People all face material and energy poverty.
D．People believe in political and economic systems.
13．What does the underlined word “ingrained” in paragraph 4 probably mean
A．Held. B．Rooted. C．Changed. D．Possessed.
14．What does the author suggest
A．Trying to be rich. B．The more, the better.
C．Enjoying what we have. D．Focusing on the compulsive consumption.
15．In which section of a newspaper may this text appear
A．Entertainment. B．Health. C．Education. D．Economy.
First impressions are important, but everyone has an off day or makes mistakes in social situations. It might be more of a challenge to change how you are perceived. 16
Apologize. If your first meeting was affected by some type of mistake, reach out and apologize. It shows that you are aware of your mistake and willing to take steps to overcome it. 17
Explain what happened. You don’t want to make excuses. But it can be helpful to provide an honest explanation for why your first meeting went poorly. You might explain that you were nervous, that you weren’t feeling well, that you were distracted, or that you were feeling stressed about something unrelated. 18 It makes the other person better empathize (有同感) with your situation.
Suggest another meeting. If you won’t see them in another setting, ask if you can have another opportunity to let them get to see the real you. 19 For example, don’t continue pursuing a potential romantic partner after they have told you they are not interested. Don’t take it personally. Instead, see it as a learning opportunity and try to apply those lessons when you meet someone new.
20 If you do get another opportunity to overcome a poor first impression, make sure you are honest and consistent in your future interactions. Let the other person know you completely in terms of context and situation. If it’s a second date, let them see the qualities that make you a great romantic partner, such as warmth, kindness, humour, and attentiveness (周到).
A．Let them see the real you.
B．Show interest in others.
C．Smiling, for example, can help express warmth and interest.
D．No matter the cause, an honest explanation may be helpful.
E．But there are still things you can do to overcome a bad first impression.
F．Then you can improve the impression the other person has of you.
G．However, be willing to respect the other person’s request if they decline your offer.

三、语法填空（本大题共1小题）
阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。
A new, small robotic camera designed to be swallowed for use in medical examinations was 36 (recent) demonstrated at a conference in Canada. The device called PillBot can be guided through a body remotely, meaning electronically from outside. Its creators hope the device will replace traditional endoscopies(内窥镜检查). An endoscopy is when a camera attached to a wire is directed down the throat and into a sleeping 37 (patient) stomach.
The PillBot is designed to be the first motorized endoscopic camera. Here 38 (be)how developers say it works: A patient does not eat for one day, then swallows the PillBot with lots of water. The PillBot acts like 39 small submarine(潜艇) controlled by a wireless remote control. When the exam is completed, the body will expel(排出) the PillBot 40 the same way it expels other solid waste.
Dr. Vivek Kumbhari is co-founder of the company. It is the latest step towards his larger goal of 41 (make) complex medicine more accessible.
If endoscopies can 42 (move) from a hospital setting to a patient’s home, he said. “then I think we have achieved that goal.” The device provides “a safer, 43 (comfortable)approach,” he added.
Alex Luebke is the co-founder of Endiatx. He said the PillBot can help people in rural areas 44 medical centres and treatment are lacking. The micro-robotic pill is undergoing testing. If 45 (approve), the PillBot could be available by 2026.

It was the golden autumn when a young musician was touring all around the world. The moment he arrived at a small town lying along a clear and sweet river, a feeling of ease and comfort embraced him. The peaceful night fell, appealing to the young musician. He was casually (随便地) out walking and passing a cottage with the door open, when he heard someone inside playing the piano. Though it didn’t go smoothly, he was sure that it was just one of his compositions.
The musician stopped to listen, but the music stopped too. He got closer and overheard a conversation going—“It is too difficult! I can never play it well by myself! I’ve only heard someone else play it several times. It’s far from enough. How I wish I would gain a chance to attend a concert! What if it is played by the musician himself ”—a girl murmured (低语) and sighed. A man continued, “I can’t agree more, but we can’t afford to attend a concert. We are so poor.” “Sorry, Brother,” explained the girl, “Please let it go. I didn’t mean to. I was just kidding.” Though she tried to keep a calm tone, both the brother and the young musician could tell how much she wished to hear a real musician play it properly.
The young musician pushed the door and got into the house. With a single candle, a man was making shoes while a young lady was sitting at the piano. Nothing inviting was in sight except the old piano. What was unexpected was that the beautiful young lady was blind. The brother was too astonished to pronounce a word. Kind but embarrassed, he smiled at the stranger.
The musician smiled and nodded, approaching the piano slowly. Nervous and frightened, the brother dropped the shoe he was working on, jumped to his feet and rushed to protect his sister. “What are you doing Keep off my sister!” The young lady was alarmed at the noise. She got off the piano, with head hanging and shoulders shaking.
注意：

【解析】4．细节理解题。根据第一段“It was only when visiting the classrooms of universities with his two teenage daughters that he suddenly felt himself at home among ‘the atmosphere of learning’.”(在带着两个十几岁的女儿参观大学教室时，他才突然觉得自己在“学习的氛围中”感到无拘无束。)可知，他陪女儿参观大学时，突然很享受学校的这种学习氛围，进而产生了重回学校学习的想法。故选D。
5．细节理解题。根据第二段“After school Pep had intended to study biology but was called on to help run the family business instead.”(毕业后Pep本打算去学生物学，但却被要求去经营家族企业了。)可知，Pep没有去上大学是因为他被要求接手家族企业。故选D。

9．推理判断题。根据第四段“But even within just two weeks, we have quantified evidence showing a decrease in caloric intake and a negative energy balance—caloric intake is less than calories burned.(但即使在短短两周内，我们已经有量化的证据表明热量摄入的减少和负能量平衡——热量摄入少于卡路里燃烧)”可知，Dr Tasali对于实验结果是非常自信的。故选B。
10．推理判断题。根据最后一段“Instead, they slept in their own beds, tracked their sleep with wearable devices, and otherwise followed a normal lifestyle without any instructions on diet or exercise.(相反，他们睡在自己的床上，用可穿戴设备记录自己的睡眠情况，在其他情况下按照正常的生活方式生活，没有任何饮食或锻炼方面的指导)”可推知，参与者在不影响他们正常生活方式的情况下跟踪他们的睡眠。故选C。
11．主旨大意题。根据第一段“An hour’s extra sleep a night can shave 270 calories off people’s daily diets, new research suggests—the equivalent of around three chocolate digestive biscuits. Over three years, this could lead to a weight loss of 26 pounds—simply by sleeping more, the researchers said.(一项最新研究表明，每晚多睡一小时可以减少人们每日摄入的270卡路里热量——大约相当于三块巧克力消化饼干。研究人员说，三年后，只要多睡一会儿，就能减掉26磅的体重)”结合文章介绍了研究开展的过程以及研究的相关发现。故D选项“每天晚上睡一个小时减少270卡路里”最符合文章标题。故选D。

【分析】本文是一篇议论文。文章介绍了当今人们的消费方式，分析了原因和趋势，并倡议人们摆脱强制消费，做到理性消费。

The default(默认)mindset is that there is nothing wrong with wanting ever newer and more expensive things as long as we can afford them.(但不幸的是，我们的经济体系的一切都是为了让我们相信并采取相反的行动。默认的心态是，只要我们能负担得起，想要更新、更昂贵的东西没有错)”可知，前两段中提出了让大家减少消费的倡议，但由于受到些观念的影响，人们觉得只要支付得起，想消费更新、更贵的东西是没错的。由此推知，人们倾向于不理性地消费。故选A。
13．词句猜测题。根据第四段中划线词后面的句子“Otherwise, we would never have generated the progress that has brought us to our present station.(否则，我们就永远不可能取得使我们走到现在这一步的进步)”可知，想过上更好的生活的想法在人们心中是根深蒂固的，否则我们永远不可能取得当下如此大的进步。由此可知ingrained意为“扎根；使根深蒂固”。故选B。
14．推理判断题。作者在最后一段“So what now The answer, perhaps, is to try to be rich in the enjoyment of things, not in the accumulation (堆积) of them. A pair of good shoes, lightly creased (起皱) but also carefully polished (擦亮) once a month a meal cooked at home instead of a trip to MeDonald’s—such as these lie our act of saving from the virus of compulsive (强迫性的) consumption.(那么现在呢 答案也许是，要在享受事物的过程中变得富有，而不是在积累事物的过程中变得富有。一双好鞋，有轻微的折痕，但也要每月擦一次，在家做一顿饭，而不是去麦当劳——这就是我们从强迫性消费病毒中拯救出来的行为)”推知，作者建议大家要试着尽情享受已有的物品，而非不断地囤积商品，即“享受我们所拥有的东西”。故选C。

If you won’t see them in another setting, ask if you can have another opportunity to let them get to see the real you.(建议另一次会面。如果你不想在其他场合见到他们，那就问他们是否有机会让他们看到真实的你)”以及后文“For example, don’t continue pursuing a potential romantic partner after they have told you they are not interested. Don’t take it personally.(例如，在一个潜在的浪漫伴侣告诉你他们对你不感兴趣之后，不要继续追求他们。不要往心里去)”可知，前文提到请求另一次机会，但是后文举例说如果被拒绝，就不要继续，所以空处应提到这点，所以G项“However, be willing to respect the other person’s request if they decline your offer.(然而，如果对方拒绝你的提议，你要尊重对方的要求)”承接上文，引出下文举例，符合文意。故选G项。
20．空处位于段首，为本段中心句，根据后文“If you do get another opportunity to overcome a poor first impression, make sure you are honest and consistent in your future interactions. Let the other person know you completely in terms of context and situation.(如果你确实得到了另一个机会来克服糟糕的第一印象，确保你在未来的互动中诚实和一致。让对方完全了解你的背景和情况)”可知，本段主要讲述展示真正的自己，所以A项“Let them see the real you.(让他们看到真实的你)”符合本段主题。故选A项。
