I attended a writer’s group to get feedback on my book. But there were so many people there that the discussion was limited. After getting home my 13-year-old son asked me to read one chapter to him. So I read the chapter about spending my pocket money as a nine-year-old child.
The story took place at a lunch counter, where I dreamed of ordering a banana split. Colorful balloons were hung above the counter and a sign said “Pop（使爆裂）a balloon and pay 1 cent to 63 cents for a banana split!” As I was given only 50 cents for cleaning the doghouse, I didn’t dare to ask my parents for any more pocket money without doing more work or risk asking anyone else. So I kept my wish to myself.
Frankie listened carefully, as I read the final sentences of the chapter, “I watched as others selected a balloon to pop and dreamed about the opportunity to take my chance. But it never happened.”
The next morning, Frankie led me to the kitchen. I couldn't believe my eyes. The table was covered in a pile of balloons. Frankie handed me 50 cents and a fork. “Pop one!” he urged. With tears in my eyes, I broke one. A piece of paper fell out of the balloon.
“What does it say?” Frankie asked. “Fifty cents,” I whispered, too moved to speak loudly. Frankie asked, “Well, do you have50 cents?” I handed him the money. “OK!” Then Frankie pulled out a banana split from the refrigerator.
I hugged Frankie hard. We took turns popping the other balloons until I finally got the1-cent balloon. It was a long-time coming but worth the wait.
It hit me that the first step in making any wish come true is giving it a voice.
4. Why did the author read the chapter to Frankie?
A. Because Frankie wanted her to read it to him.
B. Because she wanted to get feedback from Frankie.
C. Because Frankie had a strong desire for knowledge.
D. Because she was used to telling a bedtime story to him.
5. What can we learn about the author from Paragraph 2?

7. What did the author learn from the experience?
A. It is comforting to have a kid around. B. It is important to express one’s wishes.
C. Wishes can come true by just voicing them. D. Experiences in childhood affect us later in life.

Kids and science seem to be made for each other!
The basic science is a combination of thought and experiment called the scientific method. It’s where you start with an idea, create a way to prove or disprove your idea, and show what you learned based on facts. Learning to follow this process helps you think logically and carefully. These important thinking skills can be used in many areas of study. To give a child practice with these thinking skills is like giving vitamins to a developing mind.
One of the greatest things we can teach our children is to love learning. Learning science is a great way to do so. Children are easy to be interested in science. Because much of science is hands-on, it attracts most children. Nothing makes a child sit up and take notice like the “WOW!” of a great science showing.
Science opens doors to many subjects at school. Building love for science can be helpful in other areas of study. For example, one cannot love science for very long without becoming good at its language-math! So science encourages children to study math. An interest in science is an interest in how things were once understood compared to how they are understood now. Thus studying science lends itself easily to studying history. And after you do an experiment, you need to write a lab report. Therefore, writing becomes an important part of science.
Science is the basic thing for much of our life. The science of farming shows how our food is produced; biomedical science keeps us healthy; even our beds these days are designed according to scientific facts. We almost eat, sleep and breathe with the help of science! When we prepare the next generation of voters, creators and policy makers, it is important to make sure they are not only comfortable but also good at science.
8. According to Paragraph 2, what does learning the scientific method mean to kids?
A. Learning to do experiments. B. Learning many areas of study.
C. Helping them develop thinking skills. D. Refusing any ideas that are not logical.
9. Which of the following statements would the author agree with?
A. Science is too difficult for children. B. Children usually consider science boring.
C. Science can arouse children's interest in learning. D. Children who are careless shouldn't learn science.
10. What happens to a child who works hard at science at school?
A. He usually has no time for other subjects. B. He usually loses interest in other activities.
C. He is usually bad at such subjects like history. D. He is likely to learn many other subjects well.
11. What would be the best title for the text?
A. Why Kids Should Learn Science B. Why Science Is Important
C. How Kids Can Make Use of Science D. What Kids Should Learn at School
【答案】8. C 9. C 10. D 11. A
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章阐述了孩子学习科学的重要性和各种益处，解释了为什么孩子应该学习科学。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“Learning to follow this process helps you think logically and carefully. (学习遵循这个过程可以帮助你进行逻辑思考和仔细思考。)”可知，学习科学方法对孩子意味着帮助他们发展思考能力。故选C项。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段中“One of the greatest things we can teach our children is to love learning. Learning science is a great way to do so. Children are easy to be interested in science. (我们可以教给孩子的最伟大的事情之一就是热爱学习。学习科学是一个很好的方法。孩子们很容易对科学感兴趣。)”可以推知，作者认为科学可以激发孩子们的学习兴趣。故选C项。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段中“Science opens doors to many subjects at school. Building love for science can be helpful in other areas of study. (科学为学校的许多学科打开了大门。培养对科学的热爱有助于其他领域的研究。)”以及后面所举实例可知，一个在学校努力学习科学的孩子会学好许多其他科目。故选D项。
【11题详解】

(当我们为下一代选民、创造者和决策者做好准备时，重要的是确保他们不仅舒适，而且擅长科学。)”可知，本文主要谈论了孩子学习科学的重要性和各种益处，选项A“为什么孩子应该学习科学”符合文章主题，适合做标题。故选A项。
D
On an island in northern Norway, the sun doesn’t set from May 18 right through to July 26. The locals, having spent the long polar night from November to January, when the sun doesn’t rise at all, make the most of these months, with no regard to conventional timekeeping. The island intends to exchange its watches for flower garlands (花环) and declare itself the world’s first time-free zone.
“There’s constant daylight, and we act accordingly,” says islander Kjell Ove Hveding in a statement. “In the middle of the night, which citizens might call ‘2 am’, you can spot children playing soccer, people painting their houses or mowing their lawns, and teens going for a swim.”
Now they want to make it official. Islanders gathered at a town hall meeting to sign a petition (请愿) for a time-free zone and on June 13, Hveding met with a Norwegian member of parliament (国会) to hand over the locals’ signatures and to discuss the practical and legal challenges.
“To us, getting this in writing would simply mean formalizing the lifestyle we have been living for generations,” he says.
Islanders hope to be free of traditional opening hours and to introduce flexibility in school and working hours. Fishing and tourism are the main industries on this island with a population of little more than 300 people. Local fisher and women often spend days on the ocean for their catch, with little regard to timetable.
It’s clear that they mean business. When visitors cross the bridge to the island from the mainland, they aren’t greeted with padlocks (symbolizing love locks) like on similar bridges worldwide. The bridge is covered with watches, as people prepare for entry to the land time forgot.
12. What do the islanders normally do at midnight from May 18 to July 26?
A. Do daily work or have fun. B. Sleep like outside people.
C. Struggle with strong light. D. Turn watches into flowers.
13. What can we learn about the islanders’ living a life free of time?
A. It is difficult to describe. B. It has been a long tradition.
C. It is a new kind of lifestyle. D. It proves practical and legal.
14. What does the underlined part “they mean business” mean in the last paragraph?
A. Visitors actually prefer watches on bridges. B. Visitors are ready to enter a time-free island.
C. The islanders intend to treat tourism as business. D. The islanders are serious about being free of time.
15. What is the main idea of the text?
A. An island wants to be a time-free zone officially. B. Islanders in Norway have been free from time.
C. It’s time to lead a life without the limit of time. D. An island won’t be open to the world any longer.
【答案】12. A 13. B 14. D 15. A
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇新闻报道。在挪威北部的一个岛屿上，太阳从5月18日一直到7月26日都不会落下，这个岛屿想要正式成为一个无时间限制区。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段第二句中的“you can spot children playing soccer, people painting their houses or mowing their lawns, and teens going for a swim”(你可以看到孩子们在踢足球，人们在粉刷房子或修剪草坪，青少年在游泳)可知，岛民通常在5月18日至7月26日的午夜从事日常工作或娱乐。故选A。
【13题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段中的“To us, getting this in writing would simply mean formalizing the lifestyle we have been living for generations”(对我们来说，把这些写下来仅仅意味着将我们世世代代的生活方式正式化)可知，岛民过着自由时间是一个悠久的传统。故选B。
【14题详解】
词句猜测题。根据最后一段第二句“When visitors cross the bridge to the island from the mainland, they aren’t greeted with padlocks (symbolizing love locks) like on similar bridges worldwide. The bridge is covered with watches, as people prepare for entry to the land time forgot.”(当游客从大陆过桥到岛上时，迎接他们的不是世界其他桥上象征爱情的挂锁，而是挂满了手表的一座桥，人们要准备好进入被时间遗忘之地。)可推知，岛上居民在桥上挂满手表，用来表示岛上不需要计时，说明岛上的居民非常重视时间的自由，他们对这一问题是严肃认真的，划线句表达了同样的意思，且句中“mean business”是习语，意为“是当真的，不是开玩笑”。故选D。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文并结合第一段最后一句“The island intends to exchange its watches for flower garlands and declare itself the world’s first time-free zone”(该岛打算用手表换花环，并宣布自己为世界上第一个自由时间区。)可知，文章主要是介绍了一个岛屿想要正式成为一个无时间限制区。故选A。

We may “friend” more people on Facebook, but we have fewer real friends — the kind who would help us out in tough times, listen sympathetically no matter what, lend us money, or keep a secret if we shared one.
____16____ He is a Cornell University sociologist who surveyed more than 2,000 adults and found that from 1985 to 2021, the number of truly close friends has dropped even though we’re socializing as much as ever. On average, participants listed 2.03 close friends in his survey. ____17____ “These are the people you think of as your real friends, your go to people if you need something,” Brashears said.
Brashears asked people online to list the names of people with whom they had discussed “important matters” over the previous six months. 48 percent of participants listed one close friend when asked. 28 percent listed two and 19 percent listed more. ____18____ He reports the results in the journal Social Networks.
____19____ Brashears said his survey can’t tell us for sure, but his guess is that while we meet just as many people as we used to, we sort them differently.
Does that suggest we’re more isolated in these times when we seem to meet more people online than in person? Keith Hampton from the University of Pennsylvania wrote a report. “Internet, or Facebook users have more close relationships than other people. They get more overall social support than other people. ____20____” wrote Hampton in his blog post.
A. What’s the reason behind them?
B. What’s the meaning of the survey?
C. The report reflected issues behind the phenomenon.
D. That’s the conclusion made by Matthew Brashears.
E. At the same time, a little more than 4 percent didn’t list anyone.
F. And in particular they report more emotional support and companionship.
G. Compared with 3 in a previous study, the number was down by one point.
【答案】16. D 17. G 18. E 19. A 20. F
【解析】
【分析】本文是一篇说明文。文章讲的是一项调查表示尽管我们的社交活动一如既往，但真正亲密的朋友的数量却在减少。
【16题详解】
根据指代关系和下文“He is a Cornell University sociologist...(他是康奈尔大学的社会学家)”可知，设空句应出现下文中人称代词He指代的人物，D项“That’s the conclusion made by Matthew Brashears.(那是Matthew Brashears得出的结论)”中Matthew Brashears即He指代对象，且下文对Matthew Brashears的身份进行了介绍，符合上下文语意连贯。故选D项。
【17题详解】
上文“...found that from 1985 to 2021, the number of truly close friends has dropped even though we’re socializing as much as ever. On average, participants listed 2.03 close friends in his survey.(发现从1985年到2021年，尽管我们还是一如既往地进行社交活动，但真正亲密的朋友的数量却在减少。在他的调查中，参与者平均列出了2.03个亲密朋友)”讲调查发现我们真正亲密的朋友数量减少了，并给出具体数据：2.03个，G项“Compared with 3 in a previous study, the number was down by one point.(与之前研究中的3人相比，这一数字下降了一个百分点)”将其与之前数据进行对比，印证上文观点，符合上下文语意连贯。故选G项。
【18题详解】
E项“At the same time, a little more than 4 percent didn’t list anyone.(与此同时，略多于4%的人没有列出任何人)”和上文“48 percent of participants listed one close friend when asked. 28 percent listed two and 19 percent listed more. (48%的参与者列出了一个亲密的朋友。28%的人列出了两个，19%的人列出了更多)”是并列关系，通过具体数据来展示网络问卷调查的结果，符合上下文语意连贯。故选E项。
【19题详解】
下文“Brashears said his survey can’t tell us for sure, but his guess is that while we meet just as many people as we used to, we sort them differently.(布莱希尔斯说，他的调查不能肯定地告诉我们，但他猜测，虽然我们遇到的人和以前一样多，但我们对他们的分类有所不同)”是在解释原因，A项“What’s the reason behind them?(他们背后的原因是什么?)”引出下文的解释，符合上下文语意连贯。故选A项。
【20题详解】
上文“Internet, or Facebook users have more close relationships than other people. They get more overall social support than other people.(互联网或Facebook用户比其他人有更多的亲密关系。他们比其他人得到更多的社会支持)”讲互联网或Facebook用户获得更多社会支持，F项“And in particular they report more emotional support and companionship.(特别是他们报告说他们有更多的情感支持和陪伴)”与上文是顺承关系，进一步说明他们得到的支持类型，句中“more emotional support”与上文“more overall social support”相照应，符合上下文语意连贯。故选F项。

41. which 42. ideas
43. what 44. accurately
45. is needed
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇说明文。温室气体排放对地球的影响巨大，文章认为净零目标只有在所有国家都朝着同一方向前进时才能实现。
【36题详解】
考查介词。句意：我们大多数人都在尽自己的一份力量减少对环境的影响，但尽管我们做出了集体努力，我们是否已经做了足够多的工作，以在2050年实现净零排放？an impact on意为“对……的影响”，为固定搭配，所以此处应用介词on。故填on。
【37题详解】
考查动词不定式。句意：我们大多数人都在尽自己的一份力量减少对环境的影响，但尽管我们做出了集体努力，我们是否已经做了足够多的工作，以在2050年实现净零排放？根据“are we doing enough”和“net zero by 2050”可知，此处是指做足够多的工作以在2050年实现净零排放，所以应用to do不定式作目的状语。故填to achieve。
【38题详解】
考查冠词。句意：另一个方法是大力推动电动汽车的出现。此处push意为“推动”，为可数名词，在此处第一次出现，应用不定冠词表示泛指。故填a。
【39题详解】
考查连词。句意：为此，将降低汽车制造商的税收，并在街道上设立更多的充电站。根据“taxes for car makers will be made lower”和“there will be more charging points in streets”可知，前后为并列关系，所以应用连词and。故填and。
【40题详解】
考查现在分词。句意：但并不是所有的排放量都能降到零，所以剩下的排放量将不得不弥补。动词remain意为“剩下”，和谓语之间没有连词，和逻辑主语those构成主动关系，所以应用现在分词作后置定语。故填remaining。
【41题详解】
考查定语从句。句意：其中一种方法是种植数千棵树，它们能很好地吸收二氧化碳。在非限制性定语从句中缺少主语，且先行词为trees，所以应用关系代词which。故填which。
【42题详解】
考查名词复数。句意：还有其他一些想法，但可以肯定的是，这些想法需要花钱。idea意为“想法”，为可数名词，在other后应用复数形式。故填ideas。
【43题详解】
考查名词性从句。句意：还有其他一些想法，但可以肯定的是，这些想法需要花钱。在主语从句中缺少主语，根据“that those will cost money”可知，此处是指“什么”，所以应用连接代词。故填what。
【44题详解】
考查副词。句意：并且对于如何准确地测量这一点还是有一些疑问。修饰动词measured应用副词accurately作状语表示“准确地”。故填accurately。
【45题详解】
考查一般现在时的被动语态。句意：但人们普遍认为，应对气候变化需要全球的努力。此处表述客观事实，应用一般现在时。根据“to deal with climate change”可知，动词need意为“需要”，和主语effort构成被动关系，主语为第三人称单数。故填is needed。

第二节（满分25分）
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。
I was 8 years old then. I had little need of luggage. But something about my grandma’s old leather suitcase, which had been there beneath my bed, appealed to my imagination. The cracked handle felt firm in my grip and made me feel like I was going to places. But I didn't use the old suitcase before that day.
It was a fall morning in our North Carolina town, and a fine mist dampened the fallen leaves. I was angry. My mother had slighted (冷落) me somehow, though now I have no idea what sparked my anger. I wanted to make her pay. I decided to run away.
“Goodbye, Mom.” I stood outside the kitchen door, suitcase firmly in hand. “Goodbye, Mom,” I repeated twice more. At last, Mom emerged, wiping her hands on a dish towel. I lifted the suitcase a little just to make sure she didn't miss it. “I’m leaving home,” I said. The plan was to let her suffer guilt and beg for a minute or two, and then I would agree to stay.
“Did you pack lunch?” Mom’s question knocked me off balance. “I said I’m leaving. I'm running away. For Ever!” I said. Instead, she smiled. “Well, would you like me to fix you something? I just made chocolate chip cookies.” “Maybe a cookie.” I hesitated. “All right, I’m off.” As I stepped onto the front walk, fresh-baked chocolate chip tucked in my coat pocket, I looked back at our big yellow house.
Surely, she would follow me. I stared at the front door, waiting for it to fling open. I watched the lace curtains in the living room window for movement. But, no! Not even a flicker of a curtain! My mother didn’t care if I ran away. Had she ever loved me at all?
注意：
1. 所续写短文的词数应为150左右；
2. 续写部分分为两段，每段开头语已为你写好；
Paragraph 1:
And so I had no choice but to continue
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Paragraph 2:
“Robbie?” My mother’s trembling voice appeared from the darkened living room.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】 And so I had no choice but to continue. I got to the sidewalk and took a right, moving slowly on. I had traveled 150 feet before I stopped. I had no idea what would come next, blank and frustrated. I took a bite of the still-moist cookie, put it back in my pocket, and decided that my mother deserved one last chance. I turned around and moved back to the house, leather suitcase swinging like a swing. A moment later, I was back at home.
“Robbie?” My mother’s trembling voice appeared from the darkened living room. I peeked in. It was my mom. “I’m happy you’re home,” she said. Her voice was gentle, like hot cocoa on a cold winter’s night. She’d been crying apparently. She managed a smile when I stepped over to her, my anger and disappointment fading away. I hugged her tightly, tears streaming down my face. Whenever the old leather suitcase came into my mind, I recalled the lesson of that misty fall morning: My mother did love me. She loved me enough to let me find home.
