There are a lot of museums in London. Of course, there are world-famous names like the British Museum and Natural History Museum. But then there are many tiny plain peculiar museums in every corner of the city.
18 Stafford Terrace
The Kensington address provides a chance to see a late-Victorian, middle-class home that has survived largely unchanged. The house was passed on from one generation of the family to the next and almost all the original decoration remains unchanged. The house closes during summer for maintenance.
Opening hours: 2 pm — 5:30 pm Wed, Sat, Sun
Brunel Museum
An exhibition celebrates the Thames Tunnel as the birthplace of the tube system, and the Great Eastern steamship as the first modern ocean liner. The site is a Scheduled Ancient Monument and International Landmark Site above the oldest tunnel in the Underground, which tells the story of the men who worked in the dark, dodging flames and raw sewage every day.
Opening hours: Daily 10 am — 5 pm
The Cinema Museum
This collection of artifacts, memorabilia and equipment telling the history of cinema from the 1890s to the present is open by tour (advance booking required) while the museum raises funds to secure its future. Among the displays are cinema seats and signs, stills and posters, projectors and other machinery.
Opening hours: 11 am — 5 pm Mon-Fri by appointment only
Dennis Severs’ House
Dennis Severs’ House is a time capsule attraction in which visitors are immersed in a unique form of theatre. The tour takes you through the cellar, kitchen, dining room, smoking room and upstairs to the bedrooms. It feels as though the inhabitants had deserted the rooms only moments before. The Dennis Severs House tour is unsuitable for children as tours are conducted in silence.
Opening hours: Wed, Fri 5 pm — 9 pm

Richard Proenneke did what most nature lovers can only dream of: At age 51 he quit his job as a mechanic and moved to the Alaskan wilderness to become one with nature.
In 1962, Proenneke encountered the area Twin Lakes, now called Lake Clark National Park and Preserve. Its wild beauty struck a chord with Proenneke. He thought the area was a perfect place to settle. In 1968, he built a small cabin there and remained for the next 30 years.
Going such long periods without companionship would tax many a person. But that was not the case for Proenneke. An obsessive observer and diarist, Proenneke once noted he was so busy with his life that he was never lonely. He spent most of his free time writing about the weather, the environment and the animals, some of which he befriended with regular treats. He hiked thousands of miles per year, becoming quite familiar with the miles of wilderness around his cabin. He caught and ate fish from the lake. Having no refrigerator, he dug into the ground and created a chilly storage box that helped to prolong his fresh foods.
Yet Proenneke wasn’t a bitter or angry isolationist (孤立主义者). He happily wrote replies to just about anyone who sent him letters. During the 30 years, Proenneke filled up more than 250 notepads with his diary entries. He also carried a camera to record some of his daily activities. Along with a biography composed by his friend Sam Keith, Proenneke’s notepads and camera footage were later turned into a documentary, Alone in the Wilderness.
In his will, Proenneke left behind his Twin Lakes cabin to the park rangers (护林员) as a gift. Actually, he had become such an important part of the park’s ecosystem that the rangers had trouble imagining life without him.
24. What made Proenneke different from other nature lovers?
A. He loved outdoor activities. B. He built a cabin in the forest.
C. He quit his job in his fifties. D. He settled alone in the wilderness.
25. Which word can best replace the underlined “tax” in Paragraph 3?
A. Impress. B. Benefit. C. Defeat. D. Transform.
26. What might Proenneke think of his life in Twin Lakes?
A. Bitter but fruitful. B. Lonely but peaceful.
C. Risky but thrilling. D. Simple but fulfilling.
27. What might be a suitable title for the text?
A. One Man’s “Alaska” B. Gift from a Nature Lover
C. A Volunteer Ranger D. Survival in the Wilderness
C
Called “America’s wolf”, the red wolf is the only large predator whose historic range is found entirely within the United States, stretching from Texas to New England. But hunting gradually reduced its range, and it was declared extinct in the wild in 1980.
Recovery efforts in the wild began in 1987 on the Alligator River National Wildlife Refuge. In a ground-breaking successful experiment, eight captive (圈养的) wolves were released this year into North Carolina, eventually growing into a population over 100, reaching a peak of around 120 wolves in 2012. But illegal hunting and management changes by the Fish and Wildlife Service resulted in their numbers plummeting.
In the spring, conservationists celebrated a small bit of good news when four captive-born pups (幼兽) were placed into a cave and successfully adopted by a wild red wolf mother. Meanwhile, another four adults were released into the wild. The pups are thought to be still alive and healthy. But the adults didn’t go well. In the months after release, three were struck by cars and killed, and the fourth was fatally shot on private land.
To boost the population after these deaths, the U. S. Fish and Wildlife Service announced in November that it planned to release nine adult red wolves into their recovery area this winter, land within and surrounding two wildlife reserves.
The Service also recently announced it would withdraw a 2018 proposal to shrink (缩小) the red wolves’ protected area in North Carolina by 90 percent, after a lawsuit accused the agency of going against the Endangered Species Act. Ron Sutherland of the Wildlands Network says it’s crucial that the agency has abandoned this wrong-headed proposal. And yet the situation now is even more urgent than it was in 2018 — this should launch the conservation community in the U. S. into crisis mode to save this species and bring it back from the extinction.
28. What does the underlined word “plummeting” in paragraph 2 mean?
A. Promising. B. Declining. C. Multiplying. D. Increasing.
29. What can we infer from paragraph 3?
A. The released wolves lived well.
B. The population boosted after the release.
C. The red wolf faced greater threat than before.
D. The released red wolves still needed protection.
30. What would the Service do to save red wolves?
A. Shrink the red wolves’ reserves.
B. Make a proposal to protect the red wolves.
C. Put some red wolves in some specific places.
D. Force the protected area into the state of emergency.
31. What does the text focus on?
A. The protection of red wolves. B. Challenges faced by red wolves.
C. Reasons for red wolves extinction. D. The relationship between red wolves and humans.

D
As race season approaches, many runners have the same goal: go faster. But in a study published in the journal Current Biology, researchers show that speeding up might require us to resist our natural biology. By combining data from runners monitored in a lab along with 37,000 runs recorded on wearable fitness trackers, scientists have found that humans’ natural tendency is to run at a speed that conserves caloric loss — something that racers seeking to shave time off their miles will have to get over.
The research group have been studying the mechanics of running in labs for 15 years but hadn’t gotten a chance to study running in the wild before. “We joined the two datasets to gain new insights and combine the more messy wearable data with the gold standard lab experiments to learn about how people run out,” says co-author Jennifer Hicks.
What surprised the team was the consistency they found across the combined datasets. “We had assumed earlier that people ran faster for shorter distances and then would slow their pace for longer distances,” says first author Jessica Selinger. But this wasn’t the case. Most of the runners analyzed stuck with the same speed, whether they were going for a short run or a long one over ten kilometers.
From an evolutionary (进化) standpoint, it makes sense that people would run at the speed that uses the least amount of energy. This caloric conservation is something that has been observed across the animal kingdom. But humans’ reasons for running have changed, and if the goal is speed, there are some tricks runners can use.
Listening to music with a faster pace has been shown to help speed up stride (步伐) frequency, which increases running speed. In addition, picking faster running partners can give you a boost.
Hicks hopes that having large pools of fitness data from wearables will help researchers gain insights about populations. “You can look at connections with the built environment and access to leisure resources and start to layer all of that data to really understand how to improve physical activity and health more broadly,” says Hicks.
32. What do the racers have to overcome during the race?
A. Energy consumption. B. Muscle loss.
C. Weakness of humanity. D. Lack of nutrients.
33. What was the team’s initial idea concerning running?
A. People would run in the wild rather than in labs.
B. People adjust their speeds to different distances.
C. People run at a constant speed regardless of distance.
D. People possess enormous potential for running faster.
34. Why are “listening to music” and “picking partners” mentioned in paragraph 5?
A.To evaluate the advantages of running.
B. To offer tips on speed increase.
C. To explain the importance of fast running.
D. To reveal the change in human running goals.
35. What’s Hicks’ attitude to the information obtained from wearables?
A. Unclear. B. Critical. C. Favorable D.Doubtful.
第二节　(共5小题; 每小题2.5分, 满分12.5分)
阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Digital Technology is the major engine of modern life. It provides us with our means of communication, entertainment, and social lives. The last few years especially have shown how important digital technology is to our lives, as the pandemic forced us to move online. Everywhere, there are many apps that claim to help people find happiness: heart-rate trackers, exercise apps, sleep apps, etc. 36
Actually, there are three things you can do to ensure that your digital technology tools are helpful. Firstly, be certain that the app is designed in such a way that it serves your purposes and not the company’s purpose. Some apps will overwhelm you with notifications (通知) and data. 37 After all, you never want to feel bad about an app which always tells you what you should or should not do.
38 Before downloading an app that claims to make your life better, do a quick Google search and read up on the science behind it. Sometimes app designers start with the best intentions, but then get too invested in the engineering and details and lose sight of the science that they are basing themselves on.
Finally, make sure you try out the app before you use it. 39 Read the fine print and inform yourself regarding return policies and trial periods when you download a new app. Don’t use an app that isn’t right for you.
Digital Technology may help, but you still need to go outside to take a walk, and do something to make someone else happy. 40 Use the tools that are helpful to you, digital or otherwise, and find your way.
A. Not every app is right for every person.
B. You may find these notifications useful.
C. How can we know which ones are truly helpful?
D. That could be more harmful to your mental health than helpful.
E. Remember, the pursuit of happiness doesn’t have only one path.
F. In addition, make sure that the science behind the app is good science.
G. Can we rely on digital technology around us to become happier people?

I remember one Thanksgiving when our family had no money and no food, and someone came with a huge box of food, a giant turkey and even some pans to cook it in. I couldn’t believe it.
The stranger said to my father, “I’m here because a friend of yours knows you’re in need and that you wouldn’t accept direct help, so I’ve brought this for you. Have a great Thanksgiving.”
Obviously that experience had a profound impact on my life. I promised myself that someday I would do the same thing for other people. By the time I was eighteen I had created my Thanksgiving ritual (仪式). I did part-time jobs, so I would earn money and buy enough food for one or two families. Then I would dress like a delivery boy, go to the poorest neighborhood and just knock on a door. I always included a note that explained my Thanksgiving experience as a kid. The note concluded, “All that I ask in return is that you take good enough care of yourself so that someday you can do the same thing for someone else.” I have received more from this annual ritual than I have from any amount of money I’ve ever earned.
Two years ago my business partners and I were stuck in New York City during Thanksgiving. When I told them what I always did on Thanksgiving, they got interested. “Let’s go to Harlem (the poorest area in New York) and feed some people in need. That’s what Thanksgiving really is: Giving good thanks, not just eating turkey.” I said.
Everyone got excited about being the delivery people and couldn’t wait to knock at some doors in Harlem. However, when we called the rent-a-car places, we were told that they were all out of vans(小型货车) .
注意：
1.续写词数应为 150 左右；

Looking at the vans running on the streets, I believed there must be one available.

Dear Chris,
It's been a long time since we last met. How is everything? I'm kind of busy recently, for our school is planning to hold a class meeting with the theme of introducing traditional Chinese culture.Meanwhile, the activity will be hosted on an English website. I was appointed to take charge of this activity, which worries me a lot.
Faced with difficulties, I have to turn to you for help. Since you have always been interested in Chinese culture, I sincerely hope that you can tell me what traditional Chinese culture attracts you foreigners most and why. I know it's not an easy question to answer, but any advice from you will be of great help in accomplishing my task.
I would appreciate it if you could give me any idea. I am looking forward to receiving your earliest reply.
Yours,
Li Hua

【参考范文】
Looking at the vans running on the streets, I believed there must be one available. Thus, we decided to go out to find a van that could be helpful for our idea. It happened that a van was waiting outside a store and the driver was busy unloading. I greeted him with a smile and told him my Thanksgiving ritual and our plan. Handing him 100 dollars, I asked him if he could work together with us to carry food to Harlem.
The driver refused the money we offered and was willing to take us. Having filled the van with full load of food, we left for Harlem, dressed like delivery men. Two hours later, we were on our way back with an empty van. Although exhausted, we talked and laughed with great joy and excitement. The broad smile spreading across the poor people’s faces told us that our small act of kindness made a difference to them and I believed some day they would also give others a helping hand if possible.

【解析】
【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了理查德·普伦内克在51岁时辞去机械师的工作，搬到了阿拉斯加的荒野，与自然融为一体。在那里，他建造了一间小木屋，独自一人生活，但是他从来没有感觉孤独。他写了250多本日记，还携带了一台摄像机来记录他的一些日常活动。最后，他把他的小木屋留给公园流浪者作为礼物。
【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“Richard Proenneke did what most nature lovers can only dream of: At age 51, he quit his job as a mechanic and moved to the Alaskan wilderness to become one with nature.(理查德·普伦内克做了大多数自然爱好者只能梦想的事情：51岁时，他辞去了机械师的工作，搬到了阿拉斯加的荒野，与自然融为一体)”可知，理查德·普伦内克和其他自然爱好者不同的是他独自一人搬到了荒野居住，和大自然融为一体。故选D。
【5题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第三段划线所在句子的前半句话“Going such long periods without companionship (这么长时间没有伴侣)”以及后几句话“But that was not the case for Proenneke. An obsessive observer and diarist, Proenneke once noted he was so busy with his life that he was never lonely. He spent most of his free time writing about the weather, the environment and the animals, some of which he befriended with regular treats. (但普伦内克并非如此。作为一名痴迷的观察家和日记作者，普伦内克曾指出，他忙于自己的生活，从不感到孤独。他大部分空闲时间都在写天气、环境和动物，其中一些是他经常招待的朋友。)”可知，对于大多数人来，长时间独居会让人感到劳累，甚至崩溃。但是对于普伦内克来说并非如此。他有很多事情可做，从不感到孤单。由此可知，tax的意思为“挫败”。故选C。
【6题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段倒数中“He spent most of his free time writing about the weather, the environment and the animals, some of which he befriended with regular treats. He hiked thousands of miles per year, becoming quite familiar with the miles of wilderness around his cabin. He caught and ate fish from the lake. Having no refrigerator, he dug into the ground and created a chilly storage box that helped to prolong his fresh foods.(他大部分空闲时间都在写天气、环境和动物，其中一些是他经常招待的朋友。他每年徒步数千英里，对小屋周围数英里的荒野十分熟悉。他抓住并吃了湖里的鱼。由于没有冰箱，他在地里挖出一个冰冷的储藏箱，这有助于延长他的新鲜食物)”可知，普伦内克独自一人生活在荒野中并不感到孤单，有很多事情可以做，但这些事情多数和自然有关。由此可知推知，他在Twin Lakes的生活既简单又充实。故选D。
【7题详解】
主旨大意题。文章主要讲述了理查德·普伦内克在51岁时辞去机械师的工作，搬到了阿拉斯加的荒野，与自然融为一体。在那里，他建造了一间小木屋，独自一人生活，但是他从来没有感觉孤独。他写了250多本日记，还携带了一台摄像机来记录他的一些日常活动。最后，他把他的小木屋留给公园流浪者作为礼物。所以，“一个人的‘阿拉斯加’”适合作文章的标题。故选A。
C
【答案】28. B 29. D 30. C 31. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了由于非法捕猎和鱼类及野生动物管理局的管理改变而使得红狼数量急剧下降。
【28题详解】
词句猜测题。根据划线单词的主语“illegal hunting and management changes by the Fish and Wildlife Service(非法捕猎和鱼类及野生动物管理局的管理改变)”和常识可知，非法捕猎会导致动物数量的下降，从而推知，划线词“plummeting”意为“下降、速降”。选项A“Promising (承诺)”；选项B“Declining (下降)”；选项C“Multiplying (相乘)”；选项D“Increasing (增加)”。故选B。
【29题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“In the spring, conservationists celebrated a small bit of good news when four captive-born pups(幼兽) were placed into a cave and successfully adopted by a wild red wolf mother. Meanwhile, another four adults were released into the wild. The pups are thought to be still alive and healthy. But the adults didn’t go well. In the months after release, three were struck by cars and killed, and the fourth was fatally shot on private land.(今年春天，环保主义者庆祝了一个小小的好消息：四只圈养出生的红狼幼崽被放进一个洞穴，成功地被一只野生红狼妈妈收养。与此同时，另外四只成年红狼被放归野外。这些幼崽被认为仍然活着，健康。但成年红狼并不顺利。在释放后的几个月里，三头被汽车撞死，第四头在私人土地上被枪杀。)”可推断，被放生野外的红狼还需要保护。故选D。
【30题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段“To boost the population after these deaths, the U. S. Fish and Wildlife Service announced in November that it planned to release nine adult red wolves into their recovery area this winter, land within and surrounding two wildlife reserves.(在这些死亡事件后，为了增加红狼的数量，美国鱼类和野生动物管理局在11月宣布，计划在今年冬天释放9只成年红狼到它们的恢复区，即两个野生动物保护区及其周围的土地上。)”可知，该机构计划今年释放一些红狼到特定的地区。故选C。
【31题详解】
主旨大意题。根据最后一段“And yet the situation now is even more urgent than it was in 2018—this should launch the conservation community in the U. S. into crisis mode to save this species and bring it back from the extinction.(然而，现在的情况甚至比2018年更紧迫——这应该启动美国的保护社区进入危机模式，以拯救这个物种，并使其从灭绝中恢复。)”及全文可知，文章第一段和第二段主要讲了红狼的数量减少，而之后的段落主要讲述的是如何保护红狼。所以这篇文章的重点是保护红狼。故选A。

【答案】范例 1
Looking at the vans running on the streets, I believed there must be one available. Thus, we decided to go out to find a van that could be helpful for our idea. It happened that a van was waiting outside a store and the driver was busy unloading. I greeted him with a smile and told him my Thanksgiving ritual and our plan. Handing him 100 dollars, I asked him if he could work together with us to carry food to Harlem.
The driver refused the money we offered and was willing to take us. Having filled the van with full load of food, we left for Harlem, dressed like delivery men. Two hours later, we were on our way back with an empty van. Although exhausted, we talked and laughed with great joy and excitement. The broad smile spreading across the poor people’s faces told us that our small act of kindness made a difference to them and I believed some day they would also give others a helping hand if possible.
范例 2
Looking at the vans running on the streets, I believed there must be one available. Walking to a crossroad and waiting by the light, we knocked on each window, “Sir, could you take us to Harlem to give good thanks?” Every time the driver would look away ignoring us. Then we started offering people $100 but that also seemed ineffective. We were ready to give up when a perfect van drove up, which was extra big and could accommodate all of us. We went up and asked “Could you take us to Harlem to give good thanks? We’ll pay you a hundred dollars.”
The driver refused the money we offered and was willing to take us. On the way to Harlem we chatted. “Why do you people want to do this?” asked he. I told him my story and my thanksgiving ritual. Arriving there, we first went to buy necessary food, packing enough for seven families for thirty days. Then we went to deliver them. It was both an astonishing realization that people lived this way and a truly fulfilling experience to make even a small difference.
范例 3
Looking at the vans running on the streets, I believed there must be one available. We went to the street and waved to stop the passing vans. What made us down was that no one stopped. But I told myself: “maybe next one.” After about half an hour, a van stopped in front of me and a young man stuck out his head, “What can I do for you, Sir?” “Are you willing to take us to Harlem? We can pay you 100 dollars.” “Harlem?” the driver hesitated. After I explained what we wanted to do, he nodded. I handed him 100 dollars.
The driver refused the money we offered and was willing to take us. We bought a lot of food, packed them and knocked at some doors to deliver the food to the families in need. As usual, I included the notes explaining my Thanksgiving experience as a kid. Seeing the surprised but grateful expressions on their faces from a distance, we felt we had a meaningful Thanks giving Day.

W: Look at this place. Do you think we’ll ever get a table?

M: Room two twenty is smaller than our other rooms, but the price is just one hundred and sixty-five dollars for the night.
W: Does that include use of the pool and the exercise room?
M: Of course. It includes the use of all facilities except the tennis courts, which are closed for the winter.
W: Okay, I’ll take it. I’ll just carry my suitcase up and have a quick look at the room, and then I’m going out for a bite to eat. I’m starving.

M: It was great to actually meet the person that wrote the books I’ve enjoyed so much. And he asked us a lot about our opinions of his work.
W: I found that as he talked, it made all the references in his stories much clearer. He’s certainly had varied experiences — becoming a doctor, going climbing in the Andes …
M: You’re right. For me, that’s the attraction of the stories — they’ve got such a wide range of settings. You never get bored.
W: I don’t know. There have been a couple I couldn’t get into.
M: Well, they all make some sense to me after what he said.

W: Have you heard about the apartment in Curry Grove that I’ve been assigned to design? It turns out that it will take a lot more time than originally planned. Would you be able to help me out?
M: Unfortunately, I’m not going to be able to. I’m supposed to train our new workers over the next two weeks, so I am not going to have time to do anything else. You can’t do it all on your own?
W: I probably can, but it is a very important project. I’m hoping to get it done by the deadline for sure.
M: Then, you should tell Mr. Cortez and see if you can get help from him. He’s a very generous co-worker, so I think he would be happy to help you a bit if you can’t do it on your own.

W: Good morning. Welcome to Science World. Today we’re talking about direction. Some people never get lost, while others need a GPS just to find their way to the store! And, of course, a GPS is not always accurate.
M: Definitely. Everyone has a story about following a GPS route and ending up in the middle of a field! But, why are some people so much better at finding their way than others? Are they born with that skill?
W: Not necessarily. Scientists say people who have a good sense of direction probably pay more attention to what’s around them. They notice more details. A lot of people don’t pay attention at all. If you’re thinking about something else while you’re walking, of course you’re more likely to get lost.
M: Hmm. I guess we do use things we see to help us find places. I remember there was a tree at the corner of a street where my friend lived. One day, the tree was gone, and I couldn’t find the street. I was completely lost! I was using the tree as a visual clue, even though I didn’t know it.
W: Yes, I’ve experienced something similar to that. Well, one day …

M: Hello everyone. My name is Alan. On behalf of Medi Travel I’d like to welcome you all to Ibiza, where fun is as certain as death and taxes. I am pretty sure you are going to enjoy your stay here in Ibiza. This is a beautiful, exciting city where you can relax and sit by the beach or enjoy some of the best clubs in Europe. You can walk into town and enjoy the local shops and restaurants or take a moonlit walk along the water if you prefer some peace and quiet. We’re going to be pulling up to the Marina Hotel in just a few minutes. Please sit back and enjoy the view of the ocean on the right hand side of the bus as we go over the bridge. I kindly ask that you remain in your seats and do not eat or drink on the bus. Manuel will be meeting us at the entrance to give you a warm welcome and help you with your bags. Please make sure your bag has been taken off the bus. I wish you all a wonderful vacation in Ibiza and I hope to see you around the great place.
