    A
    Looking for a big-leafed houseplant that will make a statement in your room and decorate yourhome? If so, then you’ve come to the right place!
    Peace Lily
    Extremely easy to look after this popular, flowering plant is very tolerant and undemanding. It is a beloved houseplant for its large, glossy oval leaves and unusual white spoon-shaped flowers. Typically blooming in the spring, this lovely plant can effectively brighten up a living space.
    African Mask Plant
    This indoor plant is a smaller plant with large dark green leaves that are shaped like a heart. Native to tropical (热带的) parts of Africa, it prefers high heat and high humidity. That can be somewhat a tricky task for the average plant owner to achieve in their home, who is likely to have trouble duplicating (复制) these steamy conditions.
    Snake plant
    Commonly referred to as mother-in-law’s tongue, it is one of the easiest houseplants to take care of. With tall, twisting sword-shaped leaves that grow upright, it has air-purifying capabilities and can merrily grow in almost dark corners of the house. But the plant is poisonous to dogs and cats, so it’s wise to keep this plant away from them, if your pets are plant chewers.
    Kentia Palm
    Caring for the Kentia Palm plant is very straightforward, which can be neglected for weeks at a time. Quite enjoying a bit of shade, it has big leaves that grow from a narrow base and is great for filling a corner without taking up much floor-space. Place it in front of a blank wall, and its archingfronds (大型复叶) will cast beautiful shadows.
    1. Which of the following requires an experienced plant owner?
    A. Peace Lily.
    B. African Mask Plant.
    C. Snake plant.
    D. Kentia Palm.
    2. What do we know about the Snake Plant?
    A. It poses little danger to dogs and cats.
    B. It is better for purifying air than others.
    C. It gets its name from a poisonous snake.
    D. It grows well in shady areas of the house.
    3. What feature do the listed household plants share?
    A. Distinctive leaves.
    B. Flowering season.
    C. Growth temperature.
    D. Striking size.
    【答案】1. B 2. D 3. A
    【解析】
    【导语】这是一篇应用文。文章主要介绍了几种大叶子的室内植物。
    【1题详解】
    推理判断题。根据African Mask Plant部分中的“That can be somewhat a tricky task for the average plant owner to achieve in their home, who is likely to have trouble duplicating (复制) these steamy conditions.(这对于一般的植物主人来说是一个棘手的任务,因为它们可能很难复制这些潮湿的环境)”可推知,African Mask Plant需要有经验的主人,故选B。
    【2题详解】
    细节理解题。根据Snake plant部分中的“With tall, twisting sword-shaped leaves that grow upright, it has air-purifying capabilities and can merrily grow in almost dark corners of the house. (高大的,曲的剑形叶子直立生长,它有空气净化能力,并愉快地生长在房子的几乎黑暗的角落)”可知,Snake Plant在房子的阴凉处生长得很好。故选D。
    【3题详解】
    细节理解题。根据第一段中“Looking for a big-leafed houseplant that will make a statement in your room and decorate yourhome? (寻找一种大叶子的室内植物,可以在你的房间里发表声明,装饰你的家?)”,Peace Lily部分中的“glossy oval leaves(大而光滑的椭圆形叶子)”,African Mask Plant部分中的“This indoor plant is a smaller plant with large dark green leaves that are shaped like a heart.(这种室内植物是一种较小的植物,大叶子呈心形,呈深绿色)”,Snake plant部分中的“With tall, twisting sword-shaped leaves(长着高大弯曲的剑形叶子)”和Kentia Palm部分中的“it has big leaves...its archingfronds (大型复叶) will cast beautiful shadows.(它有大叶子……它拱形的叶子会投下美丽的影子)”可知,这几种植物的共同点是都是大叶子植物,即有独特的叶子,故选A。
    B
    Five-year-old Willard struggled to tell the difference between an M and a W or a 6 and a 9. Unfortunately, his school teacher knew nothing about dyslexia(阅读障碍). She didn’t try to help him. Not surprisingly, Willard didn’t like school. Usually, his mind drifted-to playing outside, to his dog Maxie, or to the ants that lived near his family’s garden shed. Willard was especially curious about those ants. He felt like them-small and insignificant. Thus, one day, noticing that some ants were trying to build a house, he decided to help them and constructed a little building. Then he put sugar inside to encourage the ants to move in. When they did, Willard built more houses. He even built an ant school, with tiny swings, ladders and a merry-go-round. With the passage of time, a love for little things began to grow in his heart.
    At school, Willard still struggled, but now he knew he could do something special. Maybe he wasn’t a failure after all.
    When he quit school at age 15 and decided to pursue his dream of becoming one of the best artists in the world, his mother advised him, “The smaller you carve, the bigger your name will become.” So using a powerful microscope, he began to carve grains of sand, bits of fiber, and even specks(小颗粒)of dust.
    Willard works best at night when there are few disturbances. He calms his body and, holding his breath, he carves between heart beats when blood is not pulsing through his fingertips. He often works for months to complete a sculpture. Then he paints it with bits of acrylics(丙烯画). Willard’s favorite paintbrush is one hair from the back of a dead housefly!
    His sculptures have made Willard a wealthy man. But he says,“Success isn’t about material things like an expensive watch or a costly ring; it’s about persevering and achieving your dreams.”
    4. Why does the author mention Willard’s struggles early on in school?
    A. To express sympathy for Willard’s misfortune.
    B. To show the teacher’s ignorance about dyslexia.
    C. To state why Willard developed interest in little things.
    D. To describe how Willard felt about insignificant things.
    5. What can we infer from his mother’s advice in paragraph 3?
    A. Best artists center on small carvings.
    B. It calls for patience to become famous.
    C. Carving small is a strategy for success.
    D. Achieving big names makes a difference.
    6. How have the tiny sculptures affected Willard?
    A. He has become a millionaire.
    B. He has learnt to usemicroscopes well.
    C. He has recovered from dyslexia.
    D. He has gained a sense of achievement.
    7. What mainly contributes to Willard’s success?
    A. Enough time and others’ recognition.
    B. Material pursuit and great enthusiasm.
    C. Specific goals and great concentration.
    D. Powerful instruments and proper instructions.
    【答案】4. C 5. C 6. D 7. C
    【解析】
    【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了Willard从小患有阅读障碍,上课的时候,思绪经常飘到外面,但是他对小东西很感兴趣,经常雕刻小件东西。他在15岁时辍学,决定追求他的梦想,成为世界上最好的艺术家之一。
    【4题详解】
    推理判断题。根据第一段中“Five-year-old Willard struggled to tell the difference between an M and a W or a 6 and a 9. Unfortunately, his school teacher knew nothing about dyslexia(阅读障碍). She didn’t try to help him. Not surprisingly, Willard didn’t like school. Usually, his mind drifted-to playing outside, to his dog Maxie, or to the ants that lived near his family’s garden shed.( 五岁的Willard很难分辨出M 和W或6和9之间的区别。不幸的是,他的学校老师对阅读障碍一无所知。她没有试图帮助他。毫不奇怪,威拉德不喜欢学校。通常情况下,他的思绪会飘到外面去玩,去看他的狗马克斯,或者去看住在他家花园小屋附近的蚂蚁。)”可知,Willard学习有困难,他不喜欢学习,思绪总是会飘到外面去玩,由此可推知,作者提到Willard早期在学校有学习困难为了说明为什么Willard会对小东西产生兴趣。故选C。
    【5题详解】
    推理判断题。根据第三段中“When he quit school at age 15 and decided to pursue his dream of becoming one of the best artists in the world, his mother advised him, “The smaller you carve, the bigger your name will become.”(当他15岁辍学并决定追求成为世界上最好的艺术家之一的梦想时,他的母亲建议他:“你雕刻得越小(越精细),你的名声就会越大。”)”可推知,Willard的母亲认为雕刻细小的东西是一种成功的策略。故选C。
    【6题详解】
    细节理解题。根据第二段“At school, Willard still struggled, but now he knew he could do something special. Maybe he wasn’t a failure after all.(在学校里,Willard仍然很挣扎,但是现在他知道他可以做一些特别的事情。也许他根本不是个失败者。)”可知,这些小雕塑使得Willard获得了成就感,故选D。
    【7题详解】
    推理判断题。根据第二段中“At school, Willard still struggled, but now he knew he could do something special.(在学校里,Willard仍然很挣扎,但是现在他知道他可以做一些特别的事情。)”和第三段中“When he quit school at age 15 and decided to pursue his dream of becoming one of the best artists in the world(当他辍学时15岁,他决定追求他的梦想,成为世界上最好的艺术家之一)”可知,Willard目标明确,知道自己想做什么,根据倒数第二段中“Willard works best at night when there are few disturbances. He calms his body and, holding his breath, he carves between heart beats when blood is not pulsing through his fingertips. He often works for months to complete a sculpture. (Willard在夜间干扰少的时候工作得最好。他让身体平静下来,屏住呼吸,工作的时候仿佛指尖的血液都停止了流动,只能听见自己的心跳。他经常工作几个月来完成一个雕塑。)”可知,他注意力很集中,由此可推知,明确的目标和高度的专注是Willard成功的主要因素,故选C。
    C
    In Japan’s northeast Miyagi county, residents can find life partners via a government-sponsored, Artificial Intelligence-driven matchmaking service. Throughout the land, there are public and company-sponsored singles parties and “life design workshops” meant to urge young adults to make a concrete timeline for marriage and family. The city of Tokyo even teaches basic dating skills, such as the art of conversation.
    Japan has the fastest-aging population of any post-industrial nation on earth. The current total birth rate -- the average number of children that would be born to a woman over her lifetime -- is1.3, well below the “replacement level” of 2.1 kids per woman, which is broadly accepted as the rate needed to ensure a stable population.
    A periodic survey by the National Institute of Population and Social Security Research found close to a fifth of men and about 15% of women expressing disinterest in marriage. Almost a third of men and a fifth of women in their fifties in Japan have never been married.
    The country’s leadership is convinced that more marriages are the answer, so Japan’s new Children and Families Agency set to launch in April, will offer “marriage support service” in each of Japan’s 47 counties.
    But many experts say the only way Japan can really save itself is by getting rid of the “male breadwinner, female carer” norms (准则) that continue to support policymaking and corporate management. “Post-industrial countries(like Sweden) that made it possible to balance work and family have not suffered large declines in birth rates,” Harvard sociologist Mary Brinton noted in arecent presentation.
    Professor Masahiro Yamada, a sociologist at Chuo University, is doubtful whether Japan will escape its existential crisis. “It’s not a problem of matchmaking. It’s an issue of more men with unstable incomes,” he said. “Even among regular workers, relative incomes are falling.”
    Lower incomes are far more of a discouragement to marriage in East Asia than in the U.S. or Europe, Yamada says, as Asian men put more emphasis on unilaterally(单方面)earning enough to support children. A truly effective policy, he argues, would double or triple investment in families instead of seniors. “Japan is going to sink, right along with its birth rate,” he warned. “And South Korea and China will be right behind us.”
    8. What’s the function of AI-driven matchmaking service?
    A To offer a platform for seeking life partners.
    B. To update the country’s basic dating service.
    C. To sponsor residents to attend singles parties.
    D. To teach young Japanese how to go on dates.
    9. What can we learn from paragraphs 2 and 3?
    A. Birth rate in Japan is higher than aging rate.
    B. Japan’s population structure is out of balance.
    C. Most of the Japanese dislike children or seniors.
    D. Women are less likely to marry than men in Japan.
    10. What does Masahiro Yamada think of the matchmaking service?
    A. It leads to an increase of income.
    B. It touches the surface of the issue.
    C. It saves Japan from the present crisis.
    D. It departs from Japan’s existing norm.
    11. What can be a suitable title for the text?
    A. Can Japan increase its birth rate?
    B. Will the service catch on in Japan?
    C. Will Japanese men’s incomes rise?
    D. Can Japanese balance work and family?
    【答案】8. A 9. B 10. B 11. A
    【解析】
    【导语】这是一篇说明文。主要介绍了日本由于老龄化严重及出生率低的问题引进了婚介服务及专家对于日本能否提高出生率的问题的探讨。
    【8题详解】
    细节理解题。根据第一段第一句“In Japan’s northeast Miyagi county, residents can find life partners via a government-sponsored, Artificial Intelligence-driven matchmaking service.”(在日本东北部的宫城县,居民可以通过政府资助、人工智能驱动的婚介服务找到生活伴侣。)可知,人工智能驱动的婚介服务给人们提供了一个找到生活伴侣的平台。故选A项。
    【9题详解】
    推理判断题。根据第二段“Japan has the fastest-aging population of any post-industrial nation on earth. The current total birth rate -- the average number of children that would be born to a woman over her lifetime -- is1.3, well below the “replacement level” of 2.1 kids per woman, which is broadly accepted as the rate needed to ensure a stable population.”(日本是世界上人口老龄化速度最快的后工业化国家。目前的总出生率——一名妇女一生中生育的孩子的平均数量——为1.3,远低于每名妇女生育2.1个孩子的“更替水平”,这一水平被广泛接受为确保人口稳定所需的水平。)根据第三段“A periodic survey by the National Institute of Population and Social Security Research found close to a fifth of men and about 15% of women expressing disinterest in marriage. Almost a third of men and a fifth of women in their fifties in Japan have never been married.”(美国国家人口与社会安全研究所(National Institute of Population and Social Security Research)的一项定期调查发现,近五分之一的男性和约15%的女性表示对婚姻不感兴趣。在日本,近三分之一的50多岁男性和五分之一的女性从未结过婚。)可知,日本老龄化严重,生育率低,人口结构不平衡。故选B项。
    【10题详解】
    推理判断题。根据第六段第二句“It’s not a problem of matchmaking. It’s an issue of more men with unstable incomes.”(这不是做媒的问题。这是一个关乎收入不稳定的男性越来越多的问题。)可知,Masahiro Yamada认为人们不想结婚不是因为找不到伴侣,而是因为收入问题,故他认为婚介服务并不能从根本上解决问题。故选B项。
    【11题详解】
    主旨大意题。根据第一段第一句“In Japan’s northeast Miyagi county, residents can find life partners via a government-sponsored, Artificial Intelligence-driven matchmaking service.”(在日本东北部的宫城县,居民可以通过政府资助、人工智能驱动的婚介服务找到生活伴侣。)说明日本引进婚介服务旨在促使年轻人结婚生子,并结合下文二三段对日本人口情况的介绍,及后文专家对于解决出生率低的问题的探讨可知,本文主要针对日本能否提高出生率的问题进行了讨论。故选A项。
    D
    Gracing every continent of the Earth, wetlands are essential to the planet’s health, often compared to its vital organs, acting as arteries (动脉)that carry water and as kidneys(肾脏)that filter(过滤)harmful substances.
    Wetlands serve as protectors: they form protective barriers against tsunamis and absorb the excess rainfall. During the dry season in dry climates, wetlands release the stored water which helps delay the attack of drought and reduce water shortages. They also store vast quantities of carbon, helping ease climate change. Home to some of the most diverse and rich ecosystems, wetlands support one billion people.40 percent of all plant and animal species live or breed in wetlands.
    World Wetlands Day is observed each year on 2 February to increase people’s understanding ofthe importance of wetlands and raise awareness of the urgent need to protect the threatened natural treasure.
    “We are proud to join in this celebration and recognize the unique and valuable ecosystemservices provided by wetlands. We are committed to doing our part to conserve and protect wetlands,and we are calling on all of you to join us in this vital cause,” said UNCCD (The United NationsConvention to Combat Desertification) Executive Secretary Ibrahim Thiaw.
    To date, nearly 90 percent of the world’s wetlands have been degraded or lost,with 35 percentin the last 5O years alone. That is why on this World Wetlands Day,UNCCD is joining the RamsarConvention on Wetlands and other partners to highlight the examples of countries and communities making strides in wetland restoration.
    As stressed by the UNCCD Executive Secretary Ibrahim Thiaw, successful wetland restoration requires a joint effort from governments, civil society and the private sector. Investments in science for technology innovation, infrastructure for effective management and financial mechanisms for project implementation(实施)can turn the tide toward a better futurefor wetlands.
    12. Why are wetlands essential to us?
    A. They help fight against viruses.
    B. They offer clean drinking water.
    C. They maintain ecological balance.
    D. They prevent the natural disasters.
    13. How does the author present the current situation of wetlands in paragraph 5?
    A. By giving examples.
    B. By listing figures.
    C. By making comparisons.
    D. By analyzing causes.
    14. What do the underlined words “turn the tide” mean in paragraph 6?
    A. Follow the trend. B. Break the ice.
    C. Run the risk. D. Change the game.
    15. What is the text mainly about?
    A. Wetland ecosystem.
    B. Wetland restoration.
    C. Wetland exploration.
    D. Wetland biodiversity.
    【答案】12. C 13. B 14. D 15. B
    【解析】
    【导语】这是一篇说明文。短文介绍了湿地的重要性以及对湿地的恢复。
    【12题详解】
    细节理解题。根据第二段“Wetlands serve as protectors: they form protective barriers against tsunamis and absorb the excess rainfall. During the dry season in dry climates, wetlands release the stored water which helps delay the attack of drought and reduce water shortages. They also store vast quantities of carbon, helping ease climate change. Home to some of the most diverse and rich ecosystems, wetlands support one billion people.”(地起到了保护作用:它们形成了抵御海啸的屏障,并吸收了多余的降雨。在干旱气候的旱季,湿地释放储存的水,这有助于推迟干旱的袭击,减少水资源短缺。它们还储存了大量的碳,有助于缓解气候变化。湿地拥有一些最多样化和最丰富的生态系统,养活了10亿人)可知,湿地维持了生态系统的平衡。故选C项。
    【13题详解】
    推理判断题。根据第五段“To date, nearly 90 percent of the world’s wetlands have been degraded or lost, with 35 percent in the last 5O years alone.”(迄今为止,世界上近90%的湿地已经退化或消失,仅在过去50年里就有35%的湿地退化或消失。)可知,第五段主要是通过列举数字来展示湿地的现状。故选B项。
    【14题详解】
    词句猜测题。根据最后一段“Investments in science for technology innovation, infrastructure for effective management and financial mechanisms for project implementation(实施)”(投资于科技创新、有效管理的基础设施和项目实施的财政机制)根据“a better future or wetlands”(湿地的美好未来)可知,对科技创新、有效管理的基础设施和项目实施的财政机制的投资可以扭转趋势,使湿地的未来更加美好。所以划线词的意思是“逆转”。故选D项。
    【15题详解】
    主旨大意题。根据第三段“World Wetlands Day is observed each year on 2 February to increase people’s understanding of the importance of wetlands and raise awareness of the urgent need to protect the threatened natural treasure.”(每年的2月2日是世界湿地日,目的是提高人们对湿地重要性的认识,提高人们对保护这一濒危自然宝藏的迫切需要的认识。)根据第四段“We are committed to doing our part to conserve and protect wetlands, and we are calling on all of you to join us in this vital cause”(我们承诺尽自己的一份力量来养护和保护湿地,我们呼吁你们所有人加入我们这一至关重要的事业)根据最后一段“Investments in science for technology innovation, infrastructure for effective management and financial mechanisms for project implementation(实施)can turn the tide toward a better future for wetlands”(对科技创新、有效管理的基础设施和项目实施的财政机制的投资可以扭转趋势,使湿地的未来更加美好)所以短文主要是关于湿地的恢复。故选B项。

We socialize sure, but many of us don’t put enough importance on building deep and lasting friendships. Some do,but many don’t.”(我后悔没有更多地去接触,没有付出更多的努力去获得更多的支持,帮助我度过更艰难的时期。我们当然会社交,但我们中的许多人都没有足够重视建立深厚而持久的友谊。有些人会,但很多人不会。)可知,选项总结上文,表达他们想弥补错过的事情的渴望。故C选项“他们多么希望有第二次机会”切题。故选C项。

    57. 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。
    My lucky bamboo
    My wife Hannah, and I don’t usually keep houseplants. Anything in pots gets either overwatered or underwatered. But after my diagnosis (诊断) with a brain cancer, I loved the idea of havingsomething new and green around.
    My friend Mitch gave me what he said was a lucky bamboo plant in a deep-green container. We placed the plant in the living room window across from the sofa where I spent much of the day.
    I told Hannah I wanted to care for the plant myself. When it didn’t immediately turn yellow or brown or lose all its leaves, I was pleasantly surprised.
    Tending to the plant gave me a sense of accomplishment at a time when I sometimes felt useless. The cancer limited my ability to walk, and the treatment left me worn out, making it hard for me to accomplish everyday tasks. As a family physician, I was used to being the one who provided care, not the one who received it.
    Since my diagnosis, it seemed that I had to rely on help from other people. The enormous change left me feeling unsettled. Watering the plant, as small an act as it was, connected me to a core part of my old identity and taught me I could still be a caregiver.
    Over the next few months, I recovered from surgery and completed treatment afterwards. Even after I returned to work, I continued to care for the plant. Soon, it had nearly doubled in height and its leaves were shiny. Both the tree and I were thriving(茁壮成长).
    Then, surprisingly, it began to show signs of stress. I increased my watering. I fed it commercial plant food. No matter what I did, the leaves kept browning and dropping to the floor.
    I grew more and more discouraged and uneasy. “I can’t even care for a simple plant!” I yelled. “I’m failing!”Hannah reminded me that we’d seen houseplants die before. She asked me why I was getting so worked up about this particular one.
    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。
    “If my lucky bamboo dies,” I said, “I might die too!”
    _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
    As my anxiety decreased, I began to dig into online courses to help me figure out how to care for my ailing (状况不佳的) plant.
    _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
    【答案】Possible version:
    “If my lucky bamboo dies,” I said, “I might die too!” Unable to shake off the feeling that the plant had become a symbol of my own shaky health, I cried tears when I was alone. Now that the tree was struggling, increasing fear seized me, which in turn helped me regain calmness. Sunk into thought, I realized I had wrongly connected my care of the plant— something over which I had at least some control—with my own survival—something over which I had no control.
    As my anxiety decreased, I began to dig into online tutorials to help me figure out how to care for my ailing (状况不佳的) plant. Following the instructions, I transplanted the bamboo to a larger pot to give it room to grow. When it was back in the sunny window, we both began to thrive again. On seeing the tree in its new pot, I couldn’t help thinking of Mitch and the other people who have cared for and supported me. So blessed and grateful were I that nothing in this world could beat me, even the cancer.
    【解析】
    【导语】本文以竹子为线索展开,讲述了作者在患癌症期间养了一棵幸运竹。在接下来的几个月里,作者从手术中恢复过来,并完成了治疗。即使在作者回到工作岗位后也继续照料这株植物,但是作者发现不管怎么做,竹子叶还是变黄掉到地上。作者越来越气馁,越来越不安。“我连一棵简单的植物都养不好!”他喊道。作者的妻子问作者为什么对这件事如此激动。
    【详解】1.段落续写:
    ①由第一段首句内容“‘如果我的幸运竹子死了,’我说,‘我也可能会死!’”可知,第一段可描写作者将竹子的命运看成是自己的命运并进行了自我反思。
    ②由第二段首句内容“随着我的焦虑减轻,我开始钻研在线教程,以帮助我弄清楚如何照顾我生病的植物”可知,第二段可描写作者按照指示,把竹子移植到一个更大的花盆里,给它生长的空间使竹子茁壮成长以及竹子带给了作者信心。
    2.续写线索:将竹子的命运看成是自己的命运——反思——把竹子移植到一个更大的花盆里——竹子成长——带给作者信心
