Joshua Nelson, 18, from Missouri, is graduating from St. Charles West High School this week and will be attending Southeast Missouri State in the fall. He had saved up money to pay for his tuition, but when he received the college's President's Scholarship, he decided to take his savings and donate it to other students in need.
“It comes from my family education and faith," Nelson said. "I've always lived by strong principles as far as being a cheerful giver and having an open hand when it comes to giving back so I feel like that really motivated me.”
SEMO's President's Scholarship is the school’s most celebrated, and is only awarded to five top students annually. Nelson said he sat down and outlined how a scholarship could work to help future students who need financial assistance for college. Originally the plan was to give away $ 1,000 the one time, but then he met up with his counselor (顾问), Yolanda Curry, to work out a game plan.
“I wasn't expecting it at all!” Curry said. "He told me he had a great idea and wanted to share it with me. I could tell he was really excited.
Nelson, in association with his high school, set up the Joshua Nelson Leaders In Action Scholarship fund. Each year, $1,000 will be awarded to a senior. The money will come from donations, of which there have been $16,000 so far — for a total of $17,435 at last count, according to the school. With the money already in the fund, there's enough to give out a scholarship each year for over a decade. The first scholarship was awarded on June 1 to Darrell Montalvo-Luna. As the first recipient, his scholarship was $2,000.
“Joshua has the heart of a servant leader. He leads by example and he's genuinely excited when good things happen for other people," Curry said. "He's an encouragement — he's good at building others up and does what he can to help encourage and motivate those around.
4. What did Nelson's initial donation come from?
A. His scholarship. B. His savings.
C. His pocket money. D. His wages.
5. What does the underlined phrase "having an open hand" in paragraph 2 mean?
A. Ambitious. B. Courageous.
C. Generous. D. Cautious.
6. How did Curry feel when hearing Nelson's idea?
A. Shocked. B. Confused.
C. Excited. D. Delighted.
7. What can be inferred about the Joshua Nelson Leaders In Action Scholarship fund?
A. It never supports high school students.
B. It was set up more than ten years ago.
C. It was founded by Nelson and Curry.
D. It is going very smoothly.
【答案】4. B 5. C 6. A 7. D

Scientists in England are using two selfdirected water vehicles to explore the animal and plant life of the Celtic Sea.
The Celtic Sea is a body of water off the southern coast of Ireland. The area is known for its unusual sea life. Scientists want to know why sea creatures are so attracted to this part of the Atlantic Ocean.
One of the research vehicles is powered by batteries (电池). It collects information for the National Oceanography Center in Southampton, England, and the World Wildlife Fund. The vehicle’s low energy requirements permit it to stay floating on water for up to 30 days. Reports of what it finds in the Celtic Sea are sent by satellite.
Stephen Woodward is an engineer who helped design the vehicle. He says the vehicle has equipment that can discover small organisms called zooplankton (浮游动物) and fish. He adds that other sensing equipment measures water currents and other features of sea life. The vehicle also creates a map of the sea.
Another vehicle is powered by the sun and the wind.It can stay floating on water for months. The robotic vehicle sends information about the socalled biodiversity hotspots. A biodiversity hotspot is an area of an ocean that has a lot of plant and animal life activity.
Lavinia Suberg is one of the scientists studying the Celtic Sea. She says productive ocean areas, like the Celtic Sea, attract zooplankton. The zooplankton then attracts fish. She adds that areas with a large increase of fish often attract sea mammals and birds.
Using these robotic ocean vehicles greatly reduces the cost of exploring the sea with manned laboratories. Scientists can spend more time analyzing the collected information. They say the research will give them a better understanding of the needs of the Celtic Sea for future management and protection.
8. Why do the British scientists explore the Celtic Sea?
A. To study the geography of the sea. B. To learn why the sea is rich in sea life.
C. To test their selfdirected water vehicles. D. To learn about the sea creatures in the sea.
9. According to the text，the water vehicles ________.
A. are controlled directly by humans B. work depending on the map of the sea
C. can send the information back directly D. can keep floating on water for a long time
10. According to Lavinia Suberg, the sea mammals and birds ________.
A. are afraid of living alone B. mainly feed on zooplankton
C. like to live in warm ocean areas D. are especially interested in fish
11. What is the last paragraph mainly about?
A. The aim of sea exploration. B. The cost of exploring the sea.
C. The importance of the water vehicles. D. Ways to deal with the collected information.
【答案】8. B 9. D 10. D 11. C

Star Wars fans would be familiar with the good relationship between humans and droids (机器人) in the movies. In the movie Solo: A Star Wars Story, Lando Calrissian risked his life to rescue his co-pilot, a female droid L3-37. In real life, a humanoid robot, Sophia, has recently been granted (给予) citizenship in Saudi Arabia. Increasingly, people are ready to see robots as resembling humans. Given this phenomenon, I believ it is necessary to consider giving robots certain rights humans enjoy.
Experts have argued that since robots have now acquired human-like qualities, it is appropriate to consider if they should have rights just as humans. Sophia has a human like face and utilizes artificial intelligence to respond to speech and express emotions. For such a lifelike being that is potentially capable of expressing emotions, does it not deserve the right to be loved and respected?
Robots should also be given legal and moral protection as harming a robot may be similar to harming humans. Since people tend to form attachments to social robots, it becomes possible for companies to control the hardware and software to exploit this emotional attachment. There is a danger that data that is stored in the robot could be uploaded to the cloud. There would then possibly be situations in which the government or private sector retrieves (检索数据) the information stored in a robotic toy or social robot. With these uncertainties, it is clear why robots should be protected, just as humans.
An even more irresistible reason to grant human rights to the robots is the protection of societal values. We should stop a young child from kicking or tearing a toy robot apart because it resembles a real life. Giving robots certain rights will ensure that societal standards are set.
Still, many have roundly argued that no matter how sophisticated (老练的) they may be, robots are still machines. It is therefore quite ridiculous to treat them as living beings and grant them rights. However, with the advancement in technology, it is a matter of time before robots are fully anthropomorphized (赋予人的特征), and we would have to consider granting them rights.
In conclusion, deciding whether robots deserve human rights is by no means an easy task, but now is the time to start the conversation on this and seriously consider the possibility.
12. Why does the author mention the two examples in the first paragraph?
A. To remind readers of the importance of robots.
B. To discuss the necessity of rescuing robots.
C. To set readers thinking about an issue about robots.
D. To describe the relationship between humans and robots.
13. What’s the main idea of Paragraph 3?
A. Robots should be legally and morally protected.
B. There is possible information risk.
C. Humans are doing harm to robots.
D. Robots should be given more emotional attachment.
14. What’s the author’s attitude towards granting robots human rights?
A. Doubtful. B. Favorable.
C. Negative. D. Uncaring.
15. What’s the structure of the passage?
(①=Para. 1 ②=Para. 2 ③=Para. 3 ④=Para. 4 ⑤=Para. 5 ⑥=Para. 6)
A. ①—②③④⑤—⑥ B. ①②—③④⑤—⑥
C. ①—②③—④⑤⑥ D. ①—②③④—⑤⑥
【答案】12. C 13. A 14. B 15. A
【解析】

【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第二段的“However, with the advancement in technology, it is a matter of time before robots are fully anthropomorphized (赋予人的特征), and we would have to consider granting them rights.（然而，随着技术的进步，机器人完全拟人化只是时间问题， 我们必须考虑赋予他们权利）”和最后一段“In conclusion, deciding whether robots deserve human rights is by no means an easy task, but now is the time to start the conversation on this and seriously consider the possibility.（总之，决定机器人是否应该享有人权并不是一件容易的事，但现在是开始对话的时候了，并认真考虑这种可能性）”推知，作者对给与机器人人权持支持态度。故选B。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。通读全文可知，文章第一段提出本文话题——考虑给机器人人权，第二到第五段陈述为什么要给机器人人权，最后一个自然段总结全文。因此文章的结构是①—②③④⑤—⑥。故选A。

【36题详解】
考查时态和主谓一致。句意：为了举办一届简单、安全、精彩的冬季奥运会，北京2022年冬季奥运会开幕式没有冗长，也没有大规模表演。结合上下文可知，文章是描述过去发生的事情，应用一般过去时，主语opening ceremony是表示单数意义，be动词用was，故填was。
【37题详解】
考查连词。句意：在以雪花为主题的开幕式上，奥运主火炬很小，但圣火传递了绿色奥运的重要信息。结合句意可知，前后是转折关系，空格处用表示转折的连词but，故填but。
38题详解】
考查形容词。句意：人工智能、机器视觉、5G和云广播等先进技术的使用，为开幕式增添了新意。空格处用形容词作定语，修饰名词technologies，advance的形容词是advanced，意为“先进的”，故填advanced。
【39题详解】
考查定语从句。句意：这些演出弘扬了全球和平和人类共同未来的主题，重点是环境保护、人类健康和身体健康。分析句子结构可知，空格处引导非限制性定语从句，先行词“performances”指物，从句中缺少主语，因此用关系代词which引导定语从句，故填which。

【42题详解】
考查时态、语态和主谓一致。句意：此外，领奖台是由可回收环保材料制成的。根据常识和语境可知，领奖台是由可回收环保材料制成的，此处是描述过去发生的事情，应用一般过去时的被动语态，be made of由……制成，主语platforms是复数，因此be动词用were。故填were made。
【43题详解】
考查副词。句意：更重要的是，节俭作为中国的传统美德，可以帮助中国建立一个健康的社会环境，实现2030年碳排放峰值和2060年碳中和的目标。空处作状语修饰整个句子，应用副词形式，故填importantly。

47. 阅读下面短文，根据所给情节进行续写，使之构成一个完整的故事。
Many years ago, my father, who was 80 at that time, arrived for his regular two-week visit at my home in Karachi. He lived with my elder brother in Lahore most of the time and for ten years had stuck to his habit of going for an hour-long morning walk to keep fit. In Lahore, he would walk around a park that is quite close to my brother’s house. Naturally, he was keen to continue his morning walk while with us in Karachi.
Our preferred park is a 2 km walk from my house and it has a l km walking track. I could not drive him there every day as I had to leave for the office at the same time he wanted to set out. Since there are hardly any footpaths in Karachi, my father said he was delighted to walk on the road as he was certain there wouldn’t be much traffic in the morning.
I was less confident so I suggested it would be safer if he changed his walk time to the evening. That way I could take him to the park after work. However, my father-a determined person-said that he could not change his routine for just a few days and insisted that he would be leaving the house every day at 7 am and returning by 8 am. He started doing this and stuck firmly to his schedule. So one day when he had not returned by 8:30 am, my wife, Qaisa, phoned me in a panic. Worried, I immediately drove home, taking the same route that my father would have taken for his walk.
Not spotting him anywhere, I went to the police station to report my father’s disappearance. The station house officer advised me to wait until midnight before filling the report. Since it was only 10 am, I drove back to the park, in the hope of discovering some trace, but in vain. Totally at a loss for what to do next, I returned home and waited impatiently, walking back and forth in the house.
注意：1.所续写短文词数应为150左右；
2.续写部分分为两段，每段的开头语已为你写好。

_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】Paragraph 1：
At 10:35 am the doorbell rang and my father stood outside the door smiling, accompanied by a young man. I hugged my father tightly and affectionately. Enormously relieved, the young man told me that my father had lost his way while returning home after the morning walk. The only description he could provide was that my house was near the park and that the house was made of red bricks. With much effort, and in almost two hours searching, the young man was able to locate my house. He expressed great relief at getting my father home.
Paragraph 2：
After knowing what had happened, I showed my appreciation of his kindness. I invited him inside to join us for a cup of tea. The man refused politely and said sincerely that he felt so delighted to have brought my father safely home to me that he did not require further thanks. Then he drove the car away without even sharing his name and I have not seen him again. This kind act has a lasting influence on me. I always give others a helping hand if possible, even so many years later.

Joshua Nelson, 18, from Missouri, is graduating from St. Charles West High School this week and will be attending Southeast Missouri State in the fall. He had saved up money to pay for his tuition, but when he received the college's President's Scholarship, he decided to take his savings and donate it to other students in need.
“It comes from my family education and faith," Nelson said. "I've always lived by strong principles as far as being a cheerful giver and having an open hand when it comes to giving back so I feel like that really motivated me.”
SEMO's President's Scholarship is the school’s most celebrated, and is only awarded to five top students annually. Nelson said he sat down and outlined how a scholarship could work to help future students who need financial assistance for college. Originally the plan was to give away $ 1,000 the one time, but then he met up with his counselor (顾问), Yolanda Curry, to work out a game plan.
“I wasn't expecting it at all!” Curry said. "He told me he had a great idea and wanted to share it with me. I could tell he was really excited.
Nelson, in association with his high school, set up the Joshua Nelson Leaders In Action Scholarship fund. Each year, $1,000 will be awarded to a senior. The money will come from donations, of which there have been $16,000 so far — for a total of $17,435 at last count, according to the school. With the money already in the fund, there's enough to give out a scholarship each year for over a decade. The first scholarship was awarded on June 1 to Darrell Montalvo-Luna. As the first recipient, his scholarship was $2,000.
“Joshua has the heart of a servant leader. He leads by example and he's genuinely excited when good things happen for other people," Curry said. "He's an encouragement — he's good at building others up and does what he can to help encourage and motivate those around.
4. What did Nelson's initial donation come from?
A. His scholarship. B. His savings.
C. His pocket money. D. His wages.
5. What does the underlined phrase "having an open hand" in paragraph 2 mean?
A. Ambitious. B. Courageous.
C. Generous. D. Cautious.
6. How did Curry feel when hearing Nelson's idea?
A. Shocked. B. Confused.
C. Excited. D. Delighted.
7. What can be inferred about the Joshua Nelson Leaders In Action Scholarship fund?
A. It never supports high school students.
B. It was set up more than ten years ago.
C. It was founded by Nelson and Curry.
D. It is going very smoothly.

Scientists in England are using two selfdirected water vehicles to explore the animal and plant life of the Celtic Sea.
The Celtic Sea is a body of water off the southern coast of Ireland. The area is known for its unusual sea life. Scientists want to know why sea creatures are so attracted to this part of the Atlantic Ocean.
One of the research vehicles is powered by batteries (电池). It collects information for the National Oceanography Center in Southampton, England, and the World Wildlife Fund. The vehicle’s low energy requirements permit it to stay floating on water for up to 30 days. Reports of what it finds in the Celtic Sea are sent by satellite.
Stephen Woodward is an engineer who helped design the vehicle. He says the vehicle has equipment that can discover small organisms called zooplankton (浮游动物) and fish. He adds that other sensing equipment measures water currents and other features of sea life. The vehicle also creates a map of the sea.
Another vehicle is powered by the sun and the wind.It can stay floating on water for months. The robotic vehicle sends information about the socalled biodiversity hotspots. A biodiversity hotspot is an area of an ocean that has a lot of plant and animal life activity.
Lavinia Suberg is one of the scientists studying the Celtic Sea. She says productive ocean areas, like the Celtic Sea, attract zooplankton. The zooplankton then attracts fish. She adds that areas with a large increase of fish often attract sea mammals and birds.
Using these robotic ocean vehicles greatly reduces the cost of exploring the sea with manned laboratories. Scientists can spend more time analyzing the collected information. They say the research will give them a better understanding of the needs of the Celtic Sea for future management and protection.
8. Why do the British scientists explore the Celtic Sea?
A. To study the geography of the sea. B. To learn why the sea is rich in sea life.
C. To test their selfdirected water vehicles. D. To learn about the sea creatures in the sea.
9. According to the text，the water vehicles ________.
A. are controlled directly by humans B. work depending on the map of the sea
C. can send the information back directly D. can keep floating on water for a long time
10. According to Lavinia Suberg, the sea mammals and birds ________.
A. are afraid of living alone B. mainly feed on zooplankton
C. like to live in warm ocean areas D. are especially interested in fish
11. What is the last paragraph mainly about?
A. The aim of sea exploration. B. The cost of exploring the sea.
C. The importance of the water vehicles. D. Ways to deal with the collected information.
【答案】8. B 9. D 10. D 11. C

Star Wars fans would be familiar with the good relationship between humans and droids (机器人) in the movies. In the movie Solo: A Star Wars Story, Lando Calrissian risked his life to rescue his co-pilot, a female droid L3-37. In real life, a humanoid robot, Sophia, has recently been granted (给予) citizenship in Saudi Arabia. Increasingly, people are ready to see robots as resembling humans. Given this phenomenon, I believ it is necessary to consider giving robots certain rights humans enjoy.
Experts have argued that since robots have now acquired human-like qualities, it is appropriate to consider if they should have rights just as humans. Sophia has a human like face and utilizes artificial intelligence to respond to speech and express emotions. For such a lifelike being that is potentially capable of expressing emotions, does it not deserve the right to be loved and respected?
Robots should also be given legal and moral protection as harming a robot may be similar to harming humans. Since people tend to form attachments to social robots, it becomes possible for companies to control the hardware and software to exploit this emotional attachment. There is a danger that data that is stored in the robot could be uploaded to the cloud. There would then possibly be situations in which the government or private sector retrieves (检索数据) the information stored in a robotic toy or social robot. With these uncertainties, it is clear why robots should be protected, just as humans.
An even more irresistible reason to grant human rights to the robots is the protection of societal values. We should stop a young child from kicking or tearing a toy robot apart because it resembles a real life. Giving robots certain rights will ensure that societal standards are set.
Still, many have roundly argued that no matter how sophisticated (老练的) they may be, robots are still machines. It is therefore quite ridiculous to treat them as living beings and grant them rights. However, with the advancement in technology, it is a matter of time before robots are fully anthropomorphized (赋予人的特征), and we would have to consider granting them rights.
In conclusion, deciding whether robots deserve human rights is by no means an easy task, but now is the time to start the conversation on this and seriously consider the possibility.
12. Why does the author mention the two examples in the first paragraph?
A. To remind readers of the importance of robots.
B. To discuss the necessity of rescuing robots.
C. To set readers thinking about an issue about robots.
D. To describe the relationship between humans and robots.
13. What’s the main idea of Paragraph 3?
A. Robots should be legally and morally protected.
B. There is possible information risk.
C. Humans are doing harm to robots.
D. Robots should be given more emotional attachment.
14. What’s the author’s attitude towards granting robots human rights?
A. Doubtful. B. Favorable.
C. Negative. D. Uncaring.
15. What’s the structure of the passage?
(①=Para. 1 ②=Para. 2 ③=Para. 3 ④=Para. 4 ⑤=Para. 5 ⑥=Para. 6)
A. ①—②③④⑤—⑥ B. ①②—③④⑤—⑥
C. ①—②③—④⑤⑥ D. ①—②③④—⑤⑥
【答案】12. C 13. A 14. B 15. A
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇议论文。随着机器人越来越类人化，我们很多时候不能再把机器人仅仅看作机器，因此文章论述了应该赋予机器人人权的理由。
【12题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段的“Given this phenomenon, I believ it is necessary to consider giving robots certain rights humans enjoy.（鉴于这种现象，我认为有必要考虑给予机器人人类享有的某些权利）”结合下文陈述应该给与机器人人权的原因推知，上文提到星球大战中机器人救机器人以及现实生活中的机器人Sophia的例子是为了让读者思考一个关于机器人的问题。故选C。

【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要讲的是北京2022年冬季奥运会开幕式的先进性和环保性。
【36题详解】
考查时态和主谓一致。句意：为了举办一届简单、安全、精彩的冬季奥运会，北京2022年冬季奥运会开幕式没有冗长，也没有大规模表演。结合上下文可知，文章是描述过去发生的事情，应用一般过去时，主语opening ceremony是表示单数意义，be动词用was，故填was。
【37题详解】
考查连词。句意：在以雪花为主题的开幕式上，奥运主火炬很小，但圣火传递了绿色奥运的重要信息。结合句意可知，前后是转折关系，空格处用表示转折的连词but，故填but。
38题详解】
考查形容词。句意：人工智能、机器视觉、5G和云广播等先进技术的使用，为开幕式增添了新意。空格处用形容词作定语，修饰名词technologies，advance的形容词是advanced，意为“先进的”，故填advanced。
【39题详解】
考查定语从句。句意：这些演出弘扬了全球和平和人类共同未来的主题，重点是环境保护、人类健康和身体健康。分析句子结构可知，空格处引导非限制性定语从句，先行词“performances”指物，从句中缺少主语，因此用关系代词which引导定语从句，故填which。
【40题详解】
考查名词。句意同上。空处应填名词作介词on的宾语，protect的名词是protection，意为“保护”，是不可数名词，故填protection。
【41题详解】
考查过去分词。句意：例如，比赛中使用的材料大约有70%是通过租赁获得的，包括新的运动器材、奥运村的家具、技术设备。动词use和materials为逻辑上的动宾关系，用过去分词作后置定语。故填used。
【42题详解】
考查时态、语态和主谓一致。句意：此外，领奖台是由可回收环保材料制成的。根据常识和语境可知，领奖台是由可回收环保材料制成的，此处是描述过去发生的事情，应用一般过去时的被动语态，be made of由……制成，主语platforms是复数，因此be动词用were。故填were made。
【43题详解】
考查副词。句意：更重要的是，节俭作为中国的传统美德，可以帮助中国建立一个健康的社会环境，实现2030年碳排放峰值和2060年碳中和的目标。空处作状语修饰整个句子，应用副词形式，故填importantly。
【44题详解】
考查物主代词。句意同上。it和targets之间是所属关系，空格处意为“它”，用形容词性物主代词its修饰名词targets，故填its。
【45题详解】
考查介词。句意：所有这些都使2022年冬奥会成为一届致力于实现碳中和的重要奥运会。focus on专注于，关注，固定短语，故填on。

第二节 读后续写(满分25分)
47. 阅读下面短文，根据所给情节进行续写，使之构成一个完整的故事。
Many years ago, my father, who was 80 at that time, arrived for his regular two-week visit at my home in Karachi. He lived with my elder brother in Lahore most of the time and for ten years had stuck to his habit of going for an hour-long morning walk to keep fit. In Lahore, he would walk around a park that is quite close to my brother’s house. Naturally, he was keen to continue his morning walk while with us in Karachi.
Our preferred park is a 2 km walk from my house and it has a l km walking track. I could not drive him there every day as I had to leave for the office at the same time he wanted to set out. Since there are hardly any footpaths in Karachi, my father said he was delighted to walk on the road as he was certain there wouldn’t be much traffic in the morning.
I was less confident so I suggested it would be safer if he changed his walk time to the evening. That way I could take him to the park after work. However, my father-a determined person-said that he could not change his routine for just a few days and insisted that he would be leaving the house every day at 7 am and returning by 8 am. He started doing this and stuck firmly to his schedule. So one day when he had not returned by 8:30 am, my wife, Qaisa, phoned me in a panic. Worried, I immediately drove home, taking the same route that my father would have taken for his walk.
Not spotting him anywhere, I went to the police station to report my father’s disappearance. The station house officer advised me to wait until midnight before filling the report. Since it was only 10 am, I drove back to the park, in the hope of discovering some trace, but in vain. Totally at a loss for what to do next, I returned home and waited impatiently, walking back and forth in the house.
注意：1.所续写短文词数应为150左右；
2.续写部分分为两段，每段的开头语已为你写好。
Paragraph 1：
At 10:35 am the doorbell rang and my father stood outside the door smiling, accompanied by a young man.
_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Paragraph 2：
After knowing what had happened, I showed my appreciation of his kindness.
_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】Paragraph 1：
At 10:35 am the doorbell rang and my father stood outside the door smiling, accompanied by a young man. I hugged my father tightly and affectionately. Enormously relieved, the young man told me that my father had lost his way while returning home after the morning walk. The only description he could provide was that my house was near the park and that the house was made of red bricks. With much effort, and in almost two hours searching, the young man was able to locate my house. He expressed great relief at getting my father home.
Paragraph 2：
After knowing what had happened, I showed my appreciation of his kindness. I invited him inside to join us for a cup of tea. The man refused politely and said sincerely that he felt so delighted to have brought my father safely home to me that he did not require further thanks. Then he drove the car away without even sharing his name and I have not seen him again. This kind act has a lasting influence on me. I always give others a helping hand if possible, even so many years later.
【解析】
