【原文】OK, so tomorrow we’ll be doing a tour of the city to see some of the most important sights in San Francisco. We need to be at the Ferry Building in time to catch the boat at 8 am. But I think we should aim to be there by 7: 45, because the earlier you get on, the better seats you can get. It’s a 15-minute walk from the hotel. You won’t need to bring any money for food because a packed lunch is provided. It’s included in the boat fare, which is $30. It should be sunny tomorrow, but it can get windy on the boat, so a jacket is necessary. It takes about 25 minutes to get to Sausalito. We’ll spend about an hour in Sausalito where we’ll do some shopping. From Sausalito we’ll get a bus to the Golden Gate Park. Here, you will have a choice of activities. Firstly, the museum. The best thing here is the painting collection. Anyway, you’ll have about two hours to visit before we break for lunch. After lunch, you can go to Japanese Tea Garden. This is the oldest Japanese garden in the United States. There, you’ll have the opportunity to experience the natural beauty and harmony of a Japanese-style garden.

Nancy Meherne lives a simple life by the sea, gardening and riding the soft waves at Scarborough Beach just a couple of blocks from her house. The 92-year-old’s board made in the 1970s is a little old, but it's easy to carry and suits her just fine. Often wearing just a swimsuit, despite summer water temperatures ranging from 14℃ to 18℃, the grandmother of seven walks into the waist-deep water, waits for the perfect wave and jumps on.
Born in Wellington in 1929, Meherne says her life has been full, with “never a dull moment”. In her early 20s, after training and working as a schoolteacher, she left New Zealand by ship to study and work in England and other countries in Europe, spending her weekends and holidays exploring the regions.
Her travels also took her to India, Afghanistan, Syria, Lebanon and Pakistan, where she taught at a school for three months. After returning to New Zealand, Meherne raised three children with her husband, Doug, while teaching in primary schools and tutoring at a music school. Her teaching philosophy was similar to her life philosophy: “You’ve got to have fun.”
She remembers seeing the ocean for the first time and being shocked at its scale. “I just thought water came in small quantities.” A keen swimmer and surf life saver in her youth, Meherne says she didn’t pick up surfing until her late 30s or early 40s when she was living in Summer and started borrowing her son’s board. “I never did try and stand up, but I loved it. I’d go wherever I could.”
Meherne will be 93 in August, 2022 and says she will keep surfing as long as she is able to “do a little jump” to get on the waves. Her husband Doug says: “She has definitely kept the bar pretty high there. She has aged but she hasn’t got old.”
24. What can we learn from the first paragraph?
A. Meherne surfs near her home.
B. Meherne started surfing in the 1970s.
C. Meherne’s worn board is too old to be used.
D. Meherne can’t bear the water temperatures.
25. Which of the following words can best describe Meherne’s early life?
A. Busy and modest. B. Aimless and relaxing.
C. Full and adventurous. D. Hard and challenging
26. What does Doug mean by saying the words at the end of the passage?
A. Meherne keeps practicing to reach her limit.
B. Meherne has set a high standard for others.
C. Meherne is no longer fit for surfing due to age.
D. Meherne is still quite energetic despite old age.
27. What does the text mainly talk about?
A. People’s comments on an unusual surfer.
B. A woman who has stuck to surfing for decades.
C. The travelling experience of a remarkable surfer.
D. The sport which attracts people of different ages—surfing.
【答案】24. A 25. C 26. D 27. B
【解析】

【24题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“Nancy Meherne lives a simple life by the sea, gardening and riding the soft waves at Scarborough Beach just a couple of blocks from her house.(南希·梅赫恩在海边过着简朴的生活,在离她家只有几个街区的斯卡伯勒海滩种植花木,乘风破浪)”可知,梅赫恩在她家附近冲浪。故选A项。
【25题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段“Born in Wellington in 1929, Meherne says her life has been full, with “never a dull moment”.

【26题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“She has definitely kept the bar pretty high there. She has aged but she hasn’t got old.(她在那里绝对保持了相当高的标准。她已经是年迈的了,但还没有变老)”可知,道格表示虽然梅赫恩年龄大了,但是她的精神没有变老,仍然精力充沛。故选D项。

C
Children begin influencing us even before they are born: We plan for their arrival and adjust our lives to welcome them. As babies, they direct our sleep and, as a side effect, our moods. We know that parents of crying babies are more stressed, sleep less and may even think they are parenting badly. In a vicious cycle, stress and lack of sleep can then lead to an increased risk of parental anxiety.
But there’s more. Many studies show that a child’s innate (天生的)personality shapes how we parent them. It means how we parent depends on our children’s character. One child may be naturally outgoing and therefore enjoy a constant stream of playmates. Another might like play by himself, meaning we are quieter around them. One child might love surprises, while another may find them stressful and prefer order and routine.
As children get older, their influence on us becomes more obvious. In one 2016 study, psychologist Leon Kuczynski and colleagues asked parents from 30 families to talk about any recent events where their children had some influence in their lives. He found a wide range of responses from comments on a parent’s appearance, their politeness, their health and driving abilities. They even changed their recycling habits. One parent of a 10-year-old says: “Maybe we didn’t believe in being environmentally friendly before he drew our attention to it.”
The study, explains Kuczynski, shows that while our actions affect the child, the child’s actions affect you. By being in a close relationship, you’re likely to accept this child’s influence”. It happens for good reason too—parents wanting to maintain a close relationship with their children, to improve closeness and respect. Finally, parents and children are learning from each other. Accepting this and responding to their needs make life easier.
28. What does the underlined word “vicious” in the first paragraph?
A. Calm. B. Demanding. C. Successful. D. Awful.
29. What do we learn about parenting according to many studies?
A. Parents should stay quiet around their children.
B. Parents ought to be based on children’s characters.
C. Parenting has nothing to do with children’s personality.
D. Parents’ ways of parenting determine children’s development.
30. Parents are willingly influenced by their children because they want to ________.
A. maintain good relationships with their children
B. show their deep affection towards their children
C. be treated with respect by their naughty children
D. establish authority in relationship with their children
31. In which section of a newspaper may this text appear?
A Business. B. Politics. C. Life. D. Entertainment.
【答案】28. D 29. B 30. A 31. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是说明文。文章讲述了研究表明,孩子的先天性格决定了我们如何养育他们。这意味着我们如何为人父母取决于我们孩子的性格。文章建议父母和孩子互相学习。接受这一点并回应他们的需求会让生活更轻松。
【28题详解】
词义猜测题。根据第一段“We know that parents of crying babies are more stressed, sleep less and may even think they are parenting badly.”(我们知道,婴儿哭闹的父母压力更大,睡眠更少,甚至可能认为他们的育儿方式不好。)以及划线词后“stress and lack of sleep can then lead to an increased risk of parental anxiety.”(压力和睡眠不足会导致父母焦虑的风险增加)可知,这是一种恶性循环,划线词是糟糕的。故选D。
【29题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“Many studies show that a child’s innate (天生的)personality shapes how we parent them. It means how we parent depends on our children’s character. ”(许多研究表明,孩子的先天性格决定了我们如何养育他们。这意味着我们如何为人父母取决于我们孩子的性格。)可知,根据许多研究,我们对育儿的了解是父母应该以孩子的性格为基础。故选B。
【30题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段“ It happens for good reason too—parents wanting to maintain a close relationship with their children, to improve closeness and respect.”(处于亲密关系中,你很可能会接受这个孩子的影响。这也是有原因的——父母想和孩子保持亲密的关系,增进亲密和尊重。)可知,父母之所以愿意受孩子的影响,是因为他们想与孩子保持良好的关系。故选A。
【31题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段“ Children begin influencing us even before they are born: We plan for their arrival and adjust our lives to welcome them. As babies, they direct our sleep and, as a side effect, our moods.”(孩子甚至在他们出生前就开始影响我们:我们为他们的到来做计划,调整我们的生活来欢迎他们。作为婴儿,它们引导我们的睡眠,我们的情绪作为副作用。)可知,本文是生活类文章。这段文字可能出现在报纸的生活版面。故选C。
D
Despite being there for your safety, many people still ignore the red man at the traffic lights and cross early, running the risk of a deadly accident. Now Smart, a car maker, has come up with a smart idea for an experiment to see if safety could be improved at traffic lights by encouraging pedestrians (行人) to wait for the green man with a “Dancing Traffic Light”.
The Dancing Traffic Light was designed to draw the attention of people who were standing waiting to cross the road in Portugal. It shows a dancing red figure, as opposed to the static (静态的) figure that is normally shown. The figure is a low-resolution (低分辨率的) representation of someone who is in a room nearby, dancing.
Those who want to dance can go into the room and then select music of their choice. When the traffic light turns red, the music plays and the individual can then start to dance. A video is from the person dancing in real time to the traffic light and the dancing red figure can keep pedestrians amused while they wait.
Apart from providing entertainment for pedestrians as they wait to cross the road, there is also the “gaming” side to the Dancing Traffic Light as anyone can be the dancing figure and so he or she can contribute to the project.
This isn’t the first time that entertainment has been used for positive social outcomes. The Volkswagen Fun Theory campaign involved a Piano Staircase which encouraged people to walk up the stairs instead of using an elevator and the Bottle Bank Arcade that was made to encourage people to recycle.
Smart said that 81% more people stopped at the red light to watch it dance while they waited for the green light to appear.
32. Why did Smart design the Dancing Traffic Light?
A. To draw the attention of people. B. To help reduce traffic accidents
C. To provide entertainment for pedestrians. D. To make traffic lights more interesting.
33. What is the idea behind the Dancing Traffic Light?
A. A real person dances beside the traffic light.
B. A pedestrian performs a dance while waiting
C. A figure dances in real time to red traffic lights.
D. An individual dances to various music in a room.
34. What does the author want to stress in Paragraph 5?
A. The good results of safety product.
B. The needs for more such campaigns.
C. The influence of the Dancing Traffic Lights.
D. The use of entertainment in some social activities.
35. Which of the following can be the best title for the text?
A. A Dancing Traffic Light—A Guardian of Life
B. Road Safety—An Essential Talk
C A Campaign—A Solution from the Air
D. Smart—A Pioneer in Traffic Light Research
【答案】32. B 33. C 34. D 35. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一家名为Smart的汽车制造商设计出了跳舞的交通信号灯,以给等红灯的人带来乐趣,同时希望人们能遵守交通规则,从而减少交通事故的发生。
【32题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“Now Smart, a car maker, has come up with a smart idea for an experiment to see if safety could be improved at traffic lights by encouraging pedestrians (行人) to wait for the green man with a “Dancing Traffic Light”.(现在,汽车制造商Smart想出了一个聪明的主意,通过一项实验来观察是否可以通过鼓励行人等待“舞动红绿灯”的绿灯来提高交通安全。)”可知,这家汽车制造商设计出跳舞的交通信号灯是为了减少交通事故的发生。故选B。
【33题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“Those who want to dance can go into the room and then select music of their choice. When the traffic light turns red, the music plays and the individual can then start to dance. A video is from the person dancing in real time to the traffic light and the dancing red figure can keep pedestrians amused while they wait.(想跳舞的人可以进入房间,然后选择自己喜欢的音乐。当交通灯变红时,音乐响起,一个人可以开始跳舞。一个视频是实时跳舞的人到红绿灯,跳舞的红色身影可以让行人在等待时感到有趣。)”可推断,当交通信号灯变成红色时,房间音乐响起,一个人影开始实时跳舞。故选C。
【34题详解】
推理判断题。根据第五段“This isn’t the first time that entertainment has been used for positive social outcomes. The Volkswagen Fun Theory campaign involved a Piano Staircase which encouraged people to walk up the stairs instead of using an elevator and the Bottle Bank Arcade that was made to encourage people to recycle.(这并不是第一次娱乐被用于产生积极的社交结果。大众娱乐理论活动包括一个钢琴楼梯,鼓励人们走楼梯而不是使用电梯,还有一个瓶子银行商场,旨在鼓励人们回收利用。)”可推断,作者在第五段主要是强调娱乐在一些社会活动中的运用,故选D。
【35题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段“Now Smart, a car maker, has come up with a smart idea for an experiment to see if safety could be improved at traffic lights by encouraging pedestrians (行人) to wait for the green man with a “Dancing Traffic Light”.(现在,汽车制造商Smart想出了一个聪明的主意,通过一项实验来观察是否可以通过鼓励行人等待“舞动红绿灯”的绿灯来提高交通安全。)”可知,文章主要介绍了一款跳舞的交通信号灯,其目的是为了减少交通事故的发生。所以A选项“A Dancing Traffic Light—A Guardian of Life(舞动的红绿灯——生命的守护者)”作为文章标题最为合适。故选A。

Ella’s First Fashion Creation
Ella was wearing a new dress and she felt like a famous model, Even better, it was a dress she made! Her very first piece of fashion!
“What do you think?” she asked her family. They were all gathered at the kitchen table for breakfast. “It’s very pretty. I can’t believe you designed and sewed that all by yourself!” Mom said.“I’m so proud of you! How long did that take?”Dad asked. Ella pulled out her chair and sat down.“Two weeks! But I think I could make the next one faster. I had a few problems.
Ella smiled. She had so many problems making the dress, but right now it was all worth it. It was going to be a great day.
The kids at school weren’t quite as excited about her dress as she thought they would be, but she did get some nice comments from some of the girls, so she was happy about that. The day went by quickly, and before she knew it, she was outside for the last break of the day. What a perfect day, she thought to herself as she swung on the swings.
The school bell rang and the break was over. When the swing was close to stopping, Ella jumped off. When she landed, she heard a loud rip (撕裂). She moved her hand to the back of her dress. It was ripped all the way down the back! Her very first fashion creation fell apart! Ella was so embarrassed.
Ella spotted her teacher, Miss Miller, near the door. Ella took one hand from her dress and waved for Miss Miller to come to her. Miss Miller came up and looked at the back of Ella’s dress.“Oh no! And it is such a beautiful dress!” “I made it myself,” Ella said. “You must be very proud! You did a great job!” “Not really. Or it wouldn’t have ripped.” “Well, that happens sometimes. Even with clothes you buy in the store!”

After hearing this, Ella called her mother and asked her mother to pick her up. Because her clothes were broken, she couldn't walk home by herself. When her mother came, she saw what had happened and was distressed.
“We can’t avoid problems,” said Mom. “When the problem arises, we should find a way to solve the problem instead of complaining about ourselves. Now your dress is broken and you just need to sew it”. After saying that, mother took out the sewing bag and handed it to Ella, who took over the sewing bag and nodded to her mother. Then she stitched up the broken part of the dress.
