Camberwell College Swimming Pools
Camberwell College of Arts has one 50m (Olympic sized) pool with a depth of 2m throughout, and one 25m pool with a 1m shallow end and a 4m deep end. Both pools may be used by the general public at certain times.
50m Pool
The pool is often used for classes, but the general public may use two lanes（泳道）for lane swimming at the following times.
Monday: 06:30-11:30 and 19:00-21:00
Tuesday: 06:30-11:30 and 18:00-21:00

Children under the age of 14 must be accompanied by an adult.
Please note that during College holidays, these times will be different. Call 04837 393560 for up-to-date information.
25m Pool
The 25m pool is available for recreational (non-lane) swimming from 07:00-09:00 and 12:30-13:30 on weekdays, and 10:00-16:00 on Saturdays.
Children aged 12 and under must be accompanied
We regret that the 25m pool will be closed for redecoration between 21st July and 18th August. The men’s changing rooms will be closed for the week beginning 19th August, and the women’s changing rooms will be closed the following week. Alternative（可选用的）changing rooms will be made available. We’re sorry for this.

【答案】1. B 2. B 3. D
【解析】
【分析】本文是一篇应用文，介绍了Camberwell College两个游泳池的详细情况，对公众的开放时间以及注意事项。
【1题详解】
细节理解题。根据50m Pool中“Weekends: 09:00-17:00”可知50米的游泳池在周末对公众开放的时间是09:00-17:00，四个选项中只有13:30在此时间段内，故选B。
【2题详解】
细节理解题。根据50m Pool中“The pool is often used for classes”可知，该泳池经常用于教学。故选B。
【3题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段“the 25m pool will be closed for redecoration between 21st July and 18th August.”可知，25米的泳池将在7月21日到8月18日之间重新装修，关闭大约1个月时间。故选D。
【点睛】
细节理解题具体方法与步骤如下：
1.略读材料，大概了解原文，掌握中心或主旨。本文介绍了Camberwell College两个游泳池的详细情况，对公众的开放时间，注意事项和情况通知。
2.按文章的体裁，作者写作的组织模式及有关的信息词。如for example, first, second…等预测应该到何处寻找自己所需要的事实。
3.将精力放在寻找你所需要的细节上。快速通篇跳读，全文扫视，找到细节出处，待找到含细节句子时，放慢速度，仔细核对比较内容，直至找到答案。如小题2考查文章细节，根据第一段one 50m (Olympic sized) pool with a depth of 2m throughout,可知这个游泳池的深度是2米，A错误。根据The pool is often used for classes可知这个泳池常用于教学，B正确。根据Children under the age of 14 must be accompanied by an adult.可知14岁以下儿童必须在成人陪伴下游泳，不是不适合游泳。C错误。根据Please note that during College holidays, these times will be different.可知大学假期期间时间有所变动，不是不能使用。D错误。

We stopped to choose a cake for our daughter. We’d passed several other elderly customers but our daughter Norah seemed drawn to (被吸引) a man. Her face lit up like the sun and she waved excitedly saying, “Hi, old person! It’s my birthday today!” “Hello, little lady! And how old are you today?” He asked. They chatted for a few seconds.
We said goodbye and carried on shopping. A few minutes later, Norah asked me, “Can I take a picture with the old man for my birthday?” I thought the old man couldn’t have gone very far. So we quickly found him. “Excuse me, sir? She’d like to know if you’d take a photo with her for her birthday,” I asked. He looked surprised and then happy. “A photo? With me?” He asked. “Yes! For my birthday!” Norah cheered. And so they posed together and then they hugged each other like they were long lost friends.
We thanked Mr. Dan for sparing a few minutes of his day with us. He was moved to tears and said, “No, thank you. This is the best day I’ve had in a long time. You’ve made me feel so happy and valuable, Ms. Norah.”
Now, Norah and Mr. Dan often visit each other. While they don’t, Norah makes sure to call him at least once a week. Norah worried about Mr. Dan being alone and brought Mr. Dan a dog on his 82nd birthday. Mr. Dan said that his meeting with Norah helped to heal (治愈) his broken heart as he was having a difficult time before he met Norah that day. Sometimes talking to strangers turns into the most beautiful thing in the world.
4. How did Norah know Mr. Dan?
A. By appointment. B. By meeting in a store accidentally.
C. By telephone. D. By chatting online.
5. What was Mr. Dan’s first response to the authors request?
A. Doubtful. B. Frightened. C. Surprised. D. Happy.
6. Why was Mr. Dan moved to tears?
A. He found a hope to live on. B. He found a true friend.
C. He no longer felt lonely. D. He felt he was valued.
7. Which of the following can be the best title for the text?

B. Congratulations on Your Birthday
C. From Strangers to Friends
D. More Than a Photo Was Taken in a Photo Shop
【答案】4. B 5. C 6. D 7. C
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述作者女儿在自己生日那天主动和一位老人交谈并邀请他合照，从此他们建立的亲密的友谊的故事。
【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段的“We stopped to choose a cake for our daughter. We’d passed several other elderly customers but our daughter Norah seemed drawn to (被吸引) a man.(我们停下来给女儿选蛋糕。我们路过其他几位老年顾客，但我们的女儿诺拉似乎被一个男人吸引住了)”可知，Norah是在蛋糕店偶然和老人相遇的。故选B。

The 2022 Winter Olympics were held in Beijing, China, and in two areas northwest of Beijing, Yanqing and Zhangiiakou. The areas get cold in winter, but they don’t get a lot of snow because they’re not far from the Gobi Desert, and are generally very dry. That meant some serious changes were needed to hold the Winter Olympics there. China took water from a reservoir which helps supply Beijing’s drinking water and sent it to a nearby river. To carry the water to the mountains for making snow, the country ran miles and miles of pipes. China says making the snow took about 185,500 liters of water. This is the first time the Winter Olympics has taken place on almost 100% artificial snow.
The snow at this year’s Winter Olympics was made with wind and solar energy. And the machines that make artificial snow are quite advanced. They can make several different kinds of snow depending on what’s needed for each sport. For example, the snow they make for downhill skiing is different from the snow made for cross-country skiing.
It’s useful to be able to make snow when nature doesn’t provide enough. But artificial snow isn’t the same as natural snow, which has more air and less water. An athlete used to natural snow might have to adjust their style on man-made snow. A few athletes have complained about the snow at this year’s Olympics. Most others say it’s been just fine.
In recent years, it has become more and more common to use artificial snow at winter sports events. That’s true even in places that used to have a lot of snow naturally. Some artificial snow was used in the Winter Olympics in 2010 and 2014 because of warm weather. In the 2018 Games in Pyeongchang, South Korea, roughly 90% of the snow was man-made.
As the world warms because of climate change, problems like this are expected to become far more common. You could not have winter sports now without man-made snow.
8. What is special for Beijing Winter Olympics?
A. The playgrounds lay in the large desert.
B. All the energy it needed was made in green ways.
C. The stadiums were built in abandoned buildings.
D. All its snow fields were made of man-made snow.
9. What can we learn about the snow for the 2022 Winter Olympics from the text?
A. It must be environmentally friendly. B. It must be made from drinking water.
C. It should be the most advanced snow. D. It has to adapt to different snow sports.
10. What can we infer about the Winter Olympics in future?
A. The Winter Olympics will become more and more popular.
B. Athletes joining in the Winter Olympics must be very rich.
C. Artificial snow will play a key role in the Winter Olympics.
D The Winter Olympics will fade away gradually from our life.
11. What is the text mainly talking about?
A. The snow for the Winter Olympics. B. The 2022 Beijing Winter Olympics.
C. Weather effects on the Winter Olympics. D. Problems in hosting the Winter Olympics.
【答案】8. D 9. A 10. C 11. A

Female birds sing, too, but scientists tend to tune in to male birdsong and ignore female songs. It highlights a long-standing bias (偏见) and helps us think about why that bias persists (持续).
Since the beginning of modern birdsong research, the field has focused on male songbirds. Any serious birder could tell you that females do sing, sometimes as frequently as males. However, early birdsong researchers tended to be men. Men are significantly less likely than women to lead research projects studying female songs. Thus, we are missing key behaviors as a result of historical biases caused by a lack of diverse participation in science.
So how do we make science welcoming and accessible for all? We need to communicate better with nonscientists. Engaging the public in science is essential for basic science findings that influence how we perceive the world around us.
For example, understanding that female birds do sing matters not only to scientists but also to the billions of people who hear the sounds of wild birds every day. In many species, males and females look similar from a distance, but can be distinguished by ear. Paying close attention to which sounds each sex makes and thinking about why they might be producing them opens up a richer window into the environment around us. It turns out female birds use songs for all the same reasons male birds do: to signal individual identity, defend valuable territories and attract potential mates.
Public awareness of female birdsong has the potential to change the science itself. Apps like eBird collect millions of public observations and audio recordings of birds every year. Increasing public engagement and involvement with research promises to benefit the scientific community and society more broadly. In many cases, scientists and experts already have strongly held biases about the way the world works, and these biases allow mistaken conclusions to persist. Public observers often make better observers of the world around them because they lack preconceived ideas.
Female birds sing! We welcome a future where research and communication combine to improve our understanding of the world around us and deepen our connections to each other and the natural world.
12. What does the second paragraph mainly talk about?
A. Who is to blame for the long-standing bias.
B. Why female birdsong is long ignored by scientists.
C. What contributes to diverse participation in science.
D. How men have conducted modern birdsong research.
13. Why is it important for us to be aware of female birdsong?
A. It will enable us to become real scientists.
B. It will help us distinguish bird species by ear.
C. It will expand our understanding of the world.
D. It will make advanced science accessible for all.
14. What does the underlined word "preconceived" mean in Paragraph 5?
A. Biased. B. Creative.
C. Mistaken. D. Varied.
15. Which of the following is a suitable title for the text?
A. Why we Didn't Know That Female Birds Sing?
B. Advancing Science: How Bias Leads Us Forward
C. New Research Has Found Female Birds Sing Too!
D. A Case Study of Gender Bias in Science Reporting
【答案】12. B 13. C 14. A 15. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是议论文。文章主要讲述我们为什么不知道雌鸟也鸣叫？科学界也存在偏见，需要多样化的参与。
【12题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第二段“Since the beginning of modern birdsong research, the field has focused on male songbirds. Any serious birder could tell you that females do sing, sometimes as frequently as males. However, early birdsong researchers tended to be men. Men are significantly less likely than women to lead research projects studying female songs. Thus, we are missing key behaviors as a result of historical biases caused by a lack of diverse participation in science.”(自从现代鸟鸣研究开始以来，这个领域的研究主要集中在雄性鸣叫上。任何一个认真的观鸟者都会告诉你，雌鸟的确会鸣叫，有时和雄鸟一样频繁。然而，早期的鸟鸣研究者往往是男性。而男性科学家不太可能去研究雌鸟。因此，由于缺乏对科学的多样化参与而导致的历史偏见，我们正在遗漏关键的行为。)可知，对鸟类鸣叫的研究集中在雄鸟群体，尽管观鸟者都知道雌鸟也鸣叫，却因为从事科学研究的科学家大多是男性，而使得雌鸟鸣叫一直鲜少被科学研究，所以此段主要是在分析雌鸟鸣叫一直鲜少被科学研究的原因。故选B。
【13题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“Engaging the public in science is essential for basic science findings that influence how we perceive the world around us.”(吸引公众参与科学研究，对于影响我们如何看待周围世界的基础科学发现至关重要。)和第四段“Paying close attention to which sounds each sex makes and thinking about why they might be producing them opens up a richer window into the environment around us.”( 密切关注每种性别发出的声音，并思考为什么它们会产生这些声音，就会打开一扇更加丰富的窗户，让我们了解我们周围的环境。)可知，更多的了解雌鸟鸣叫会使我们对周围世界的理解更加的丰富。故选C。
【14题详解】
词句猜测题。根据倒数第二段“In many cases, scientists and experts already have strongly held biases about the way the world works, and these biases allow mistaken conclusions to persist. Public observers often make better observers of the world around them because they lack preconceived ideas.”(在许多情况下，科学家和专家已经对世界的运作方式有着强烈的偏见，这些偏见使得错误的结论得以继续存在。公众观察者往往能更好地观察周围的世界，因为他们缺乏preconceived观点。)可知， preconceived是形容词，修饰后面的名词ideas，是要和上文提到的“科学家已经持有的偏见”做对比，说明大众观察者经常因为他们没有这种偏见的观念，所以preconceived应该是指“先入为主的，有偏颇的”意思，和选项A意思一致。故选A。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段“Female birds sing, too, but scientists tend to tune in to male birdsong and ignore female songs. It highlights a long-standing bias (偏见) and helps us think about why that bias persists (持续).”(雌鸟也会鸣叫，但科学家倾向于听雄鸟的鸣叫，而忽略雌鸟的鸣叫。它强调了一个长期存在的偏见，并帮助我们思考为什么这种偏见持续存在。)可知，本文由雌鸟鸣叫鲜少被科学界研究而引出主题“我们为什么不知道雌鸟也鸣叫”。故选A。

【18题详解】
根据本空后的“but drinking less coffee can help you feel more energetic over the long term”可知，少喝点咖啡，有助于你感到更有活力，根据连词but可知前后两句描述的语义重点是减少对咖啡的依赖，故D项（减少对它的依赖听起来很可怕）符合语境。
【19题详解】
冒号后的内容是具体描述如何进行呼吸练习，故B项（试着做个练习来达到这个目的）符合语境。
【20题详解】
根据本段“Take some time to reflect on the positive by writing down three things that went smoothly during your day or just items you feel grateful for.”可知，花点时间记下进展顺利的三件事或者只是让你心存感激的事情，故A项（把今天进展顺利的事情写下来）符合语境。

【36题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：太极拳是一种传统的身体练习，以放松的循环运动著称。分析句子可知，be known to do sth “因做某事而被周知”，此处是动词不定式做原因状语。故填to have。
【37题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：它起源于17世纪中叶的中国河南省温县，现在中国各地各个年龄层的人都在练习。分析句子可知，本句中已经有谓语动词is，appear与主语it之间为逻辑上的主谓关系，因此应用现在分词，表主动。故填Appearing。
【38题详解】
考查介词。句意：太极拳的基本动作包括五步和八法以及一系列套路，练习和推手，这意味着手推技巧，并与对手一起进行。consist of为固定短语，意为“由…...组成，包括”。故填of。
【39题详解】
考查定语从句。句意：太极拳的基本动作包括五步和八法以及一系列套路，练习和推手，这意味着手推技巧，并与对手一起进行。分析句子可知，空处引导非限制性定语从句，修饰先行词tuishou，在定语从句中作主语，因此要用which。故填which。
【40题详解】
考查冠词。句意：另一项新入选的非物质文化遗产“送王船仪式”是中马两国共同提出的联合国教科文组织非物质文化遗产名录。分析句子可知， the other表示“两者中的另一个”用the表特指。故填the。
【41题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：几百年前在中国福建省首次发现，现在主要存在于厦门和泉州的沿海地区，以及一些海外华人社区。分析句子可知，observe与主语it是逻辑上的动宾关系，因此应用过去分词，表被动和完成。故填observed。
【42题详解】
考查副词。句意：几百年前在中国福建省首次发现，现在主要存在于厦门和泉州的沿海地区，以及一些海外华人社区。分析句子可知，空处应用main的副词形式，作状语，修饰空后的动词exists 。故填mainly。
【43题详解】
考查名词。句意：表演包括不同的地方戏剧，舞龙舞狮，和令人惊叹的木偶戏，以及其他许多表演，在仪式上呈现。分析句子可知，空处应用名词作主语，根据“ are”可知，因此应用performance复数形式，句首需大写。故填Performances。
【44题详解】
考查同位语从句。句意：联合国教科文组织认为，这一仪式唤起了人们对祖先远洋故事的历史记忆，重塑了面临紧急情况时的社会联系，纪念人类与海洋之间的和谐。分析句子可知，空处引导同位语从句，对名词belief进行解释说明，从句中不缺成分且意义完整，因此应用that来引导。故填that。
【45题详解】
考查时态和主谓一致。句意：联合国教科文组织认为，这一仪式唤起了人们对祖先远洋故事的历史记忆，重塑了面临紧急情况时的社会联系，纪念人类与海洋之间的和谐。分析句子可知，空处与brings back和reshapes并列作谓语，主语是表示单数意义的the ceremony，且此处描述客观情况。故填honors。

Ladies and gentlemen,
__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Thank you very much for your listening.
【答案】One possible version:
Ladies and gentlemen,
If I could invent something new, I'd invent a device that could put people to sleep immediately and would have no side effects, whose name is Sleeping-helper. The proper amount of sleep is important for our concentration, mental health, and physical health.
Getting enough sleep is a vital human need. For one thing, without sleep our concentration is strongly affected. Mental health is also affected by lack of sleep. They lose their tempers easily and over-react to situations.
Wouldn't it be great to go to bed every night knowing you'd have no problem getting to sleep, no matter what's going on in your life? Getting enough sleep is always going to be an important part of how you respond to your situation. I think this device would be very helpful to all of us.
Thank you very much for your listening.

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。
My husband and I have experienced a lot along our travels. Either of us can remember every detail of the trip. The most impressive moment that shortly stands out to me is when Doug and I took the public bus from Turtle Bay Resort to Kualoa Ranch in Oahu, Hawaii. We had plans of making some short videos throughout Ka'a'awa Valley where various scenes of Jurassic Park were filmed. I was so excited about this spectacular adventure. As we were catching our flight out of Honolulu later that evening, we didn't have much time to spare. We were on a quite strict schedule. Unfortunately, we ended up lost.
When we got off the bus at a small neighborhood along the single highway, we realized something was wrong. We checked our map and concluded that we exited the bus many stops too soon. Worse still, it began to rain. We wandered around looking for any residents outdoors to ask for directions. The bus wouldn't make its rounds back to our current stop for quite some time. We could either walk several miles to Ka'a'awa Valley and have no time to make some short videos or wait for the bus to return and still have no time to catch our flight to go on with our planned adventure. Our afternoon was looking awful.
As we angered and complained in front of a local's home, a black SUV pulled up. It turned into the driveway where we had been resting. Doug and I waved, smiled and apologized to the driver for intruding (闯入). I further explained how we were lost and told her of our plans to go to Kualoa Ranch. However, she didn't say anything as she led her dogs out of the car and into her house.
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。
When she came back outside, she instructed us to get into her car.

We exchanged stories of our homes and life.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】When she came back outside, she instructed us to get into her car. She said she would drive us to Kualoa Ranch and insisted that it was too good of an adventure for us to miss out on! We had never imagined she'd offer to drive us, two strangers, alone to explore Kualoa Ranch. Thrilled and a bit taken by surprise, we politely thanked her. I was worried about whether it would put her too much trouble. She gave us an absolute “No” answer. Happily, we got into her car and talked with her along our entire ride.
We exchanged stories of our homes and life. That was the most pleasant interaction I had ever had. Thanks to this woman's kindness, Doug and I experienced the wonderful afternoon making short videos and enjoyed the most beautiful scenery on the island. Ka'a'awa Valley ended up being a Hawaiian highlight of mine and I owed it all to the bighearted stranger. She didn't think twice about helping us out, this act of kindness has always been inspiring me to do good deeds!
