阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中,选出最佳选项。
A
Remembering names is an important social skill. Here are some ways to master it.
Recite and repeat in conversation.
When you hear a person’s name, repeat it. Immediately say it to yourself several times without moving your lips. You could also repeat the name in a way that does not sound forced or artificial.
Ask the other person to recite and repeat.
You can let other people help you remember their names. After you’ve been introduced to someone, ask that person to spell the name and pronounce it correctly for you. Most people will be pleased by the effort you’re making to learn their names.
Admit you don’t know.
Admitting that you can’t remember someone’s name can actually make people relaxed. Most of them will feel sympathy if you say, “I’m working to remember names better. Yours is right on the tip of my tongue. What is it again ”
Use associations.
Link each person yon meet with one thing you find interesting or unusual. For example, you could make a mental note: “Vicki Cheng — tall, black hair.” To reinforce (加强) your associations, write them on a small card as soon as possible.
Limit the number of new names you learn at one time.
When meeting a group of people, concentrate on remembering just two or three names. Free yourself from remembering every one. Few of the people in mass introductions expect you to remember their names. Another way is to limit yourself to learning just first names. Last names can come later.
Go early.
Consider going early to conferences, parties and classes. Sometimes just a few people show up on time. That’s fewer names for you to remember. And as more people arrive, you can hear them being introduced to others — an automatic review for you.
36.How will most people feel when you try hard to remember their names
A.They will be moved. B.They will be annoyed.
C.They will be delighted. D.They will be discouraged.
37.If you can’t remember someone’s name, you may ______.
A.tell him the truth B.tell him a white lie C.ask him for pity D.ask others to help you
38.To reinforce the association, you make between the person and something interesting, you may ______.
A.write them down B.say it to yourself several times
C.go early to parties D.spell and pronounce the name correctly
39.When you meet a group of people, it is better to remember ______.
A.all their names B.a couple of names first
C.just their last names D.as many names as possible
40.What does the text mainly tell us
A.Tips on an important social skill. B.Importance of attending parties.
C.How to make use of associations. D.How to recite and repeat names.

One day when I was 12, my mother gave me an order: I was to walk to the public library, and borrow at least one book for the summer. This was one more weapon for her to defeat my strange problem — inability to read.
In the library, I found my way into the “Children’s Room.” I sat down on the floor and pulled a few books off the shelf at random. The cover of a book caught my eye. It presented a picture of a beagle. I had recently had a beagle, the first and only animal companion I ever had as a child. He was my secret sharer, but one morning, he was gone, given away to someone who had the space and the money to care for him. I never forgot my beagle.
There on the book’s cover was a beagle which looked identical to my dog. I ran my fingers over the picture of the dog on the cover. My eyes ran across the title, Amos, the Beagle with a Plan. Unknowingly, I had read the title. Without opening the book, I borrowed it from the library for the summer.
Under the shade of a bush, I started to read about Amos. I read very, very slowly with difficulty. Though pages were turned slowly, I got the main idea of the story about a dog who, like mine, had been separated from his family and who finally found his way back home. That dog was my dog, and I was the little boy in the book. At the end of the story, my mind continued the final scene of reunion, on and on, until my own lost dog and I were, in my mind, running together.
My mother’s call returned me to the real world. I suddenly realized something: I had read a book, and I had loved reading that book. Everyone knew I could not read. But I had read it. Books could be incredibly wonderful and I was going to read them.
I never told my mother about my “miraculous” (奇迹般地) experience that summer, but she saw a slow but remarkable improvement in my classroom performance during the next year. And years later, she was proud that her son had read thousands of books, was awarded a PhD in literature, and authored his own books, articles, poetry and fiction. The power of the words has held.
41.The author’s mother told him to borrow a book in order to_____.
A.encourage him to do more walking B.let him spend a meaningful summer
C.help cure him of his reading problem D.make him learn more about weapons
42.The book caught the author’s eye because_____.
A.it contained pretty pictures of animals
B.it reminded him of his own dog
C.he found its title easy to understand
D.he liked children’s stories very much
43.Why could the author manage to read the book through
A.He was forced by his mother to read it.
B.He identified with the story in the book.
C.The book told the story of his pet dog.
D.The happy ending of the story attracted him.
44.What can be inferred from the last paragraph
A.The author has become a successful writer.
B.The author’s mother read the same book.
C.The author’s mother rewarded him with books.
D.The author has had happy summers ever since.
45.Which one could be the best title of the passage

C.Reunion with My Beagle D.My Passion for Reading
C
There was a time when the word “surgery” used to scare people, and they would try their best to avoid a surgical procedure. The feeling is understandable, as the idea of a large cut on your body is discomforting in many ways. However, thanks to the advances in medical science, surgical techniques have improved considerably.
Compared with the traditional open surgery, minimally invasive surgery (微创手术)has several benefits to offer. Not only is the procedure quick and less painful, but also ensures rapid recovery. Now, surgical procedures, either big or small, are done within a few minutes to a few hours. The best part about the minimally invasive surgery is the painless procedure. The advanced techniques are helping with quality treatments to patients who have to undergo (进行) surgical procedures.
Unlike the traditional open surgery that requires a large cut, a surgeon makes multiple tiny cuts of less than an inch. For the process, the surgeon uses small surgical instruments, such as a tiny tube with a mini camera at one end. Once the surgeon marks the cuts, he then passes the tiny tube through one of the cuts. The doctor monitors the images taken by the mini camera on the screen and uses them as a reference. These images give the surgeon a clear picture of the area undergoing the surgery. After the surgery, the surgeon cleans the cuts and sometimes places a bandage for additional support.
Minimally invasive surgery has become the first choice of patients with multiple medical conditions. In fact, it would not be wrong to say that these surgeries are now the standard surgical procedures for many routine operations. Whether you have a minor issue or want a surgical intervention for a major health condition, it is the best option.
46.What makes people afraid of surgery
A.The large cut. B.The great risk.
C.The high expense. D.The slow recovery.
47.What can surgeons use as a reference in the surgery
A.The previous treatment plan.
B.The images by the mini camera.
C.The standard surgical procedures.
D.The advice from other surgeons.
48.Who might benefit most from the minimally invasive surgery
A.Patients in need of additional support.
B.Patients lack of regular checkups.
C.Patients with several medical conditions.
D.Patients scared of surgical instruments.
49.What is the author’s attitude towards minimally invasive surgery
A.Disapproving. B.Objective.
C.Doubtful. D.Supportive.
50.Where is the passage probably from
A.A medical magazine.
B.An online medical forum.
C.A technique discovery.
D.An advertisement for a medical product.
D
Building a country is never easy. It takes hard work from generation to generation. But how about destroying it A new report from The Guardian said long time of climate change can do that. The report said Tuvalu will be the first country to be completely lost due to climate change.
Tuvalu is a Pacific island nation with nine islands and 12,000 people. It has long been at risk from rising sea levels. Now, 40 percent of the area in its capital is underwater at high tide. By the end of the century, it is believed that all the islands will be underwater, reported Reuters. So many people in Tuvalu have often moved around the country and even to other countries.
To help with the problem, the country plans to build its country in the metaverse. The digital country will recreate the same landscape and keep its cultural and historical records. No matter where they live in the real world, the people in this country will have their identity and “live” in its online communities. The government hopes to manage and serve them in cyberspace.
This news made many people in Tuvalu excited. But Li Zuxi, director of the metaverse lab of Qingbo Intelligent Technology, said it may not be the best solution.
“Though the digital nation belongs to Tuvalu, it’s still built on a metaverse platform,” said Li. “Now, the metaverse is not mature, which may bring some problems.” He gave us an example. If people from other countries enter the space of the digital country but just show their names, how do people know if they do or do not truly belong to that country
Li added that instead of trying our best to build digital nations, it's better to pay attention to save the real world now.
51.What problem does Tuvalu face
A.Rising sea levels. B.A dropping population.
C.The low levels of high tide. D.Not enough water to use.
52.To deal with the problem, Tuvalu plans to .
A.break the country into several parts B.fight against climate change
C.move the country to another island D.build a digital country online
53.What do we know about Tuvalu in the metaverse
A.People can find the same buildings as they are now. B.The “new” Tuvalu is larger than the real one.
C.It has no records of culture and history. D.People of the “new” Tuvalu have no identity.
54.What is Li Zuxi’s opinion about the news
A.The metaverse world is safe. B.He fully supports the rebuilding of Tuvalu.
C.He calls for more countries to enter the metaverse. D.It's hard to manage a digital country.
55.What can we learn from the story
A.The metaverse is replacing the real world. B.The metaverse can help to protect culture.
C.Climate change happens more quickly than ever. D.The metaverse has a bright future.

第一节:阅读表达(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)
阅读下面短文,并根据短文内容完成下列各题。
Twenty-four trains, nine countries, 13,500 miles.
They are the numbers behind a train journey one man took from Southampton in the UK to eastern China. Roger Tyers, 37, spent a month on board trains and over $2,500 — almost three times the cost of a return flight — to travel to the Chinese port city Ningbo for academic research in May, 2019. It was the climate crisis that drove this socialist to choose this complex route. Tyers told CNN that he felt it necessary to stop flying when UN climate experts warned last year that the world has less than 11 years to avoid disastrous levels of global warming.
Tyers is not the sole person to avoid air travel in response to climate change. Thousands of people worldwide have publicly promised to stop flying, including teenage activist Greta Thunberg, who has inspired youth climate protests around the world. Activist Maja Rosen started the “Flight Free” campaign in Sweden in 2018 with the aim of encouraging 100,000 people not to fly for one year.
Rosen, who stopped flying 12 years ago, says the “Flight Free” campaign helps fight the sense of hopelessness many people feel when it comes to dealing with climate change. “One of the problems is that people feel there’s no point in what you do as an individual. The campaign is about making people aware that if we do this together, we can actually make a huge difference,” she said.
A passenger’s footprint from an individual flight depends on a number of factors, including how far he flies, how full the plane is, and what class he travels in: First class passengers are given more space than economy passengers, meaning they’re responsible for a bigger part of the plane’s emissions. Tyers said that his train journey to China produced almost 90% less emissions than a return flight.
56.What made Tyers go to China by rail (no more than 5 words)
57.What does the underlined word “sole” in Paragraph 3 probably mean (1 word)
58.According to Rosen, what can people realize through the “Flight Free” campaign (no more than 15 words)
59.What affects passengers’ footprint from a flight (no more than 10 words)
60.What inspiration can you get from Roger Tyers’ story (no more than 25 words)
