Best of British: Artists’ residences
Get up close with the inspiring places Britain’s most vibrant artists called home.
Red House, London
Nothing better represents the commitment of William Morris, the creative genius of interiors (内饰) to beauty than his striking home in London. From delicate patterns on the doors, to the decorated gardens, the Red House shows a strong medieval style.
The Mackintosh House, Glasgow
Located on the site of the former home of legendary architect Charles Rennie Mackintosh and his wife, the reconstructed Mackintosh House offers a rare insight into their private lives. Furnished with the couple’s own furniture, everything has been considered in order to recreate the original interior as faithfully as possible.
Barbara Hepworth Museum and Sculpture Garden, Cornwall
Though she was born in Yorkshire, British sculptor (雕塑家) Barbara Hepworth moved to Cornwall and stayed there for the rest of her life. She claimed that there was a quality of inspiration to be drawn from the Cornish skyline and sea view that she simply couldn’t obtain from the city. It was Hepworth’s wish that her home would be turned into a museum of her work.
Henry Moore Foundation, Hertfordshire
Sculptor Henry Moore found his Muse in the beautiful Hertfordshire village of Perry Green and created many of his most famous works there.

In 2018, a severe drought brought Cape Town close to “Day Zero”, when it could have become the world’s first major city to run out of water. Dam levels in South Africa’s Western Cape fell to below a fifth of capacity and the province suffered its worst water crisis in 100 years.
“The water supply was dwindling and it just wasn’t raining,” recalls Thinus Booysen, a professor at Stellenbosch University, who had created a device in 2015 designed to help homeowners cut their power usage. Seeking to reduce water waste, Booysen figured he could adapt the device to measure water usage instead of electricity use.
Soon, Booysen launched a start-up, Bridging the Internet of Things (BridgloT), to develop his idea. Called Count Dropula, the device reports water usage once a minute while many conventional devices only record data once an hour. The system uses an app in the user’s cellphone and sends short messages in real time. “Within minutes, we would be able to tell the user, ‘Something has burst, or something is leaking,’” he says.
Then Booysen discovered that a key issue was maintenance (维修), with the poorest schools using by far the most water. Leaking toilets could waste 1,000 liters of water per day. “We found that the biggest problems are things like children not closing taps properly, but often that would be because the taps just don’t close,” Booysen explains. During the test, the invention saved one school more than three million liters of water in three months. Another reduced its water usage 55 percent in four months.
Businesses including Cape Talk radio station and Africa’s largest food company, Shoprite, became sponsors, partnering with the Western Cape Education Department to install (安装) test devices in 350 schools. They saved more than $2.7 million and almost 550 million liters of water in 17 months. Booysen has looked at expanding to government buildings, hospitals and hotels. There are plans to roll out the device across Africa.
4. What does the underlined word “dwindling” in Paragraph 2 probably mean?
A. Beginning B. Continuing.
C. Expanding. D. Decreasing.
5. Which words can best describe Booysen?
A. Proud and determined.
B. Cautious and friendly.
C. Creative and caring.
D. Ambitious but generous.
6. What do we know about Count Dropula?
A. It works smartly to help save water.
B. It was designed by Booysen in 2015.
C. It will soon be tested in 350 schools.
D. It cuts power usage efficiently.
7. What will Booysen probably do next?
A. He will become a member of Shoprite.
B. He will further promote his new invention.
C He will stop water pollution in Cape Town.
D. He will travel around Africa for better ideas.
【答案】4. D 5. C 6. A 7. B

【导语】本文是一篇说明文。针对城市缺水的现象，布伊森发明了一种设备，旨在帮助房主减少用水。
【4题详解】
词义猜测题。根据首段首句“In 2018, a severe drought brought Cape Town close to “Day Zero”, when it could have become the world’s first major city to run out of water. (2018年，一场严重的干旱使开普敦接近“归零日”，届时开普敦可能成为世界上第一个缺水的大城市。)”以及第二段首句““The water supply was dwindling and it just wasn’t raining,” recalls Thinus Booysen, a professor at Stellenbosch University, who had created a device in 2015 designed to help homeowners cut their power usage. (斯泰伦博斯大学教授蒂努斯·布伊森回忆说：“供水正在 ，而且就是不下雨。”)”可知，开普敦可能成为世界上第一个缺水的大城市，故可推知，供水是在“下降”的。故选D。
【5题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段““The water supply was dwindling and it just wasn’t raining,” recalls Thinus Booysen, a professor at Stellenbosch University, who had created a device in 2015 designed to help homeowners cut their power usage. Seeking to reduce water waste, Booysen figured he could adapt the device to measure water usage instead of electricity use. (斯泰伦博斯大学教授蒂努斯·布伊森回忆说:“供水正在减少，而且就是不下雨。”布伊森在2015年发明了一种设备，旨在帮助房主减少用水。为了减少水的浪费，Booysen认为他可以调整这个装置来测量用水量而不是用电量。)”可知，布伊森发明了一种设备，旨在帮助房主减少用水，说明他是关心他人的，而且是具有创造性的。故选C。
【6题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段第二三四句“Called Count Dropula, the device reports water usage once a minute while many conventional devices only record data once an hour. The system uses an app in the user’s cellphone and sends short messages in real time. “Within minutes, we would be able to tell the user, ‘Something has burst, or something is leaking,’” he says. (这种被称为Count Dropula的设备每分钟报告一次用水量，而许多传统设备每小时只记录一次数据。该系统使用用户手机中的应用程序，实时发送短信。他说：“在几分钟内，我们就能告诉用户，‘有东西破裂了，或者有东西漏水了。’”)”可知，Count Dropula的设备每分钟报告一次用水量，并且能及时通知用户漏水，能够很智能地帮助用户省水。故选A。
【7题详解】
推理判断题。根据末段末句“There are plans to roll out the device across Africa. (该公司计划在整个非洲推广该设备。)”可知，布伊森会进一步在非洲推广他的设备。故选B。
C
Scientists in Switzerland have used lasers(激光)to change the path of a lightning strike. The experiment was carried out on Säntis mountain in Switzerland, near a radio and TV tower that’s hit by lightning about 100 times a year. Using a special laser, the researchers were able to guide the lightning strike.
Scientists have been trying to find a way to protect buildings from lightning for a long time. Currently, the best way to protect buildings from lightning is by putting metal rods(棒)on the buildings. But lightning rods can only protect a small area. If a building is very large, it needs a lot of lightning rods. But some buildings—such as airports—are so large that it’s difficult to protect the whole building using lightning rods.
Another idea is to use lasers to guide lightning. The idea of using lasers to guide lightning isn’t new. Scientists have been working on the idea for over 20 years. They have successfully guided lightning with lasers inside a laboratory.
But until recently, scientists haven’t been able to guide lightning with lasers outside. That changed in the summer of 2021. Using a powerful laser that can fire about 1,000 times a second, scientists in Switzerland were able to guide lightning for 164 feet away.
The heat from the laser creates a path of air that is less thick than the air around it. The path also has a special charge. The lightning can follow this path almost as if it were a lightning rod.
But despite the progress, the laser still didn’t guide the lightning as far as the scientists would like. To protect buildings from most lightning, lasers will have to guide the lightning for a much longer distance. The laser is also very expensive. The scientists say it cost about $2 billion. It will probably take 10 or more years before a laser like this is truly able to protect large buildings.
8. What is this new technology expected to protect?
A. High buildings. B. Large buildings.
C. Important buildings. D. Complex buildings.
9. What do we know about the new technology of using lasers?
A. It is still being tested. B. It works only in the lab.
C. It is an invention of Swiss scientists. D. It cools the air around the lightning.
10. What does the last paragraph mainly tell us about the new technology?
A. Its cost control. B. Its disadvantages.
C. Its wide application. D. Its promising future.
11. What can be the best title of this text?
A. Guide Lightning With a Laser B. Lightning Rods Are out of Date
C. Use Lasers to Block Lightning D. Lightning Can Be Used to Serve People
【答案】8. B 9. A 10. B 11. A
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。介绍了用激光引导闪电从而保护建筑物的野外试验。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“But some buildings—such as airports—are so large that it’s difficult to protect the whole building using lightning rods.（但是有些建筑物——比如机场——太大了，用避雷针很难保护整座建筑。）”可知，传统避雷针只能保护较小的建筑物。所以这项新技术指望能保护大型建筑物。故选B。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。第一段中提到“experiment”，第三段中提到“laboratory”, 最后一段中提到这项技术还不成熟。由此推知，这项技术尚在测试阶段。故选A。
【10题详解】
主旨大意题。根据文章最后一段“But despite the progress, the laser still didn’t guide the lightning as far as the scientists would like. To protect buildings from most lightning, lasers will have to guide the lightning for a much longer distance. The laser is also very expensive. The scientists say it cost about $2 billion. It will probably take 10 or more years before a laser like this is truly able to protect large buildings.(但是，尽管取得了进展，激光仍然没有引导闪电达到科学家们想要的距离。为了保护建筑物不受大多数闪电的伤害，激光必须将闪电引导到更远的距离。激光也非常昂贵。科学家们表示，这项工程耗资约20亿美元。可能还需要10年或更长的时间，这样的激光才能真正能够保护大型建筑物。)”可知，本段主要讲述了利用激光避雷的弱点，比如引导距离不够远，成本较高等。故选B。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。根据文章第一句“Scientists in Switzerland have used lasers(激光)to change the path of a lightning strike.（瑞士科学家用激光改变了闪电的路径。）”可知，本文主要讲述利用激光引导闪电改变路径，从而保护建筑物。故选A。
D
Failure is probably the most exhausting experience a person ever has. There is nothing more tiring than not succeeding.
We experience this, tiredness in two ways: as start-up fatigue (疲惫) and performance fatigue. In the former case, we keep putting off a task because it has either too boring or too difficult. And the longer we delay it, the more tired we feel.
Such start-up fatigue is very real, even if not actually physical, not something in our muscles and bones. The solution is obvious though perhaps not easy to apply: always handle the most difficult job first.
Years ago, I was asked to write 102 essays on the great ideas of some famous authors. Applying my own rule, I determined to write them in alphabetical (按字母顺序), never letting myself leave out a tough idea. And I always started the day’s work with the difficult task of essay-writing. Experience proved that the rule works.
Performance fatigue is more difficult to handle. Though willing to get started, we cannot seem to do the job right. Its difficulties appear so great that, bow ever hard we work, we fail again and again. In such a situation, I work as hard as I can - then let the unconscious take over.
When planning Encyclopedia Britannica (《大英百科全书》), I had to create a table of contents based on the topics of its articles. Nothing like this had ever been done before, and day after day I kept coming up with solutions, but none of them worked. My fatigue became almost unbearable.
One day, mentally exhausted, I wrote down all the reasons why this problem could not be solved. I tried to convince myself that the trouble was with the problem itself, not with me. Relieved, I sat back in an easy chair and fell asleep.
An hour later, I woke up suddenly with the solution clearly in mind. In the weeks that followed, the solution which had come up in my unconscious mind proved correct at every step. Though I worked as hard as before, I felt no fatigue. Success was now as exciting as failure had been depressing.
Human beings, I believe must try to succeed. Success, then, means never feeling tired.
12. What does the author recommend doing to prevent start-up fatigue?
A. Writing essays in strict order.
B. Building up physical strength.
C. Leaving out the toughest ideas.
D. Dealing with the hardest task first.
13. On what occasion does a person probably suffer from performance fatigue?
A. Before starting a difficult task.
B. When all the solutions fail.
C. If the job is rather boring.
D. After finding a way out.
14. According to the author, the unconscious mind may help us ________ .
A. ignore mental problems
B. get some nice sleep
C. gain complete relief
D. find the right solution
15. What could be the best title for the passage?
A. Success Is Built upon Failure
B. How to Handle Performance Fatigue
C. Getting over Fatigue: A Way to Success
D. Fatigue: An Early Sign of Health Problems
【答案】12. D 13. B 14. D 15. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。成功路上，我们会经历启动疲劳和表现疲劳，只有克服疲劳，我们才会成功。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“Such start-up fatigue is very real, even if not actually physical, not something in our muscles and bones. The solution is obvious though perhaps not easy to apply: always handle the most difficult job first. (这种启动疲劳是非常真实，即使不是身体上的，也不是肌肉和骨骼上的。解决办法很明显，但可能不容易实施：总是先处理最难的工作。)”可知，作者建议阻止启动疲劳的方法是先处理最难的工作。故选D。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第五段前三句“Performance fatigue is more difficult to handle. Though willing to get started, we cannot seem to do the job right. Its difficulties appear so great that, bow ever hard we work, we fail again and again. (表现疲劳更难处理。虽然愿意开始，但我们似乎不能把工作做好。它的困难似乎是如此之大，以至于无论我们多么努力，我们还是一次又一次地失败。)”可知，表现疲劳主要发生在当所有的解决方案都失败的情况下。故选B。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第二段前两句“An hour later, I woke up suddenly with the solution clearly in mind. In the weeks that followed, the solution which had come up in my unconscious mind proved correct at every step. (一个小时后，我突然醒来，脑海中清晰地浮现出解决方案。在接下来的几个星期里，在我潜意识里出现的解决办法每一步都证明是正确的。)”可知，潜意识能够帮助我们解决问题。故选D。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。根据首段“Failure is probably the most exhausting experience a person ever has. There is nothing more tiring than not succeeding. (失败可能是一个人所经历过的最令人筋疲力尽的经历。没有什么比没有成功更让人疲惫的了。)”以及末段“Human beings, I believe must try to succeed. Success, then, means never feeling tired. (我相信，人类必须努力取得成功。因此，成功意味着永不疲倦。)”可知，我们要成功，必须要克服疲惫。故选C。
第二节(共5小题;每小题3分，满分15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。
What Does Your Handwriting Say About You?
Why do some people have better handwriting than others? Does it reflect your personality? Graphologists(笔迹学者) believe your handwriting speaks volumes about your personality.
A study by graphologists says: “Graphology is a discipline used in the determination, study, and interpretation of a person’s personality with the aid of spaces, curves, strokes in a handwritten text. ____16____ It expresses various personality traits, like how honest a person is, how afraid the person is, etc.”
Some graphologists believe that a right slant(倾斜) in your writing could mean you are outgoing and open to new things, but a left slant could mean the opposite-that you like to be alone. Writing with no slant can mean that you’re logical, practical person, not outwardly emotional.
Large letters may suggest a big personality and that you seek attention, while small letters mean the opposite. ____17____
People who write with big loops(圈) when joining the letter L to another letter are thought to be relaxed and spontaneous, whereas a loopless L means the opposite, you’re seen as tense. ____18____
Space between letters can also determine characteristics. Spaced out letters suggest that you don’t like to be crowded and like your space. Close letters can mean you get lonely easily and enjoy being around people most of the time-you might also fail to give others enough space.
____19____ With computers and iPhones, many type everything. Handwriting is often used recreationally for things, such as personal notes, song writing, and journaling.
There is no problem in taking pride in your handwriting, whether it’s good or not. ____20____ If you’re the only one who is going to read your notes, it’s understandable to write however carelessly you want, as long as you can read them. If you’re writing for others, you might want to make sure everything is neat and easy to read.
If you hate your handwriting, don’t worry, you can always change it.
A. Good and bad can be interpreted differently, of course.
B. Medium sized letters might mean you’re perhaps well adjusted.
C. As long as your writing satisfies its purpose, you’re in business.
D. Some people have handwriting so beautiful that it’s almost like art.
E. The same is said for the eye of the letter ‘e’-the bigger the loop, the more open you are.
F. According to graphology, handwriting is nothing but an expression of the subconscious mind.
G. Although handwriting is a basic action for most this generation probably doesn’t get as much practice as previous ones.
【答案】16. F 17. B 18. E 19. G 20. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍笔迹能反映一个人的性格。
【16题详解】
根据前句“Graphology is a discipline used in the determination, study, and interpretation of a person’s personality with the aid of spaces, curves, strokes in a handwritten text.(笔迹学是一门利用手写文本中的空格、曲线和笔触来确定、研究和解释一个人的性格的学科。)”和后句“It expresses various personality traits, like how honest a person is, how afraid the person is, etc.(它表达了各种性格特征，比如一个人有多诚实，有多害怕等等。)”可知，笔迹学认为笔迹是人的一种潜意识。所以选择项F“According to graphology, handwriting is nothing but an expression of the subconscious mind.(根据笔迹学，笔迹只不过是潜意识的一种表达。)”符合上下文语境。故选F。
【17题详解】
根据前句“Large letters may suggest a big personality and that you seek attention, while small letters mean the opposite. (大的字母可能表明你的个性很强，你想引起别人的注意，而小的字母则恰恰相反。)”可知，前句提出大的字母和小的字母所代表的个性，所以这里陈述中等大小的字母所代表的个性。所以选择项B“Medium sized letters might mean you’re perhaps well adjusted. (中等大小的字母可能意味着你适应得很好。)”符合上下文语境。故选B。
【18题详解】
根据前句“People who write with big loops(圈) when joining the letter L to another letter are thought to be relaxed and spontaneous, whereas a loopless L means the opposite, you’re seen as tense. (当L和另一个字母连在一起的时候写大圈的人会被认为是放松和自发的，而没有圈的L则意味着相反，你会被认为是紧张的。)”可知，作者继续介绍另一个字母的例子。所以选择项E“The same is said for the eye of the letter ‘e’-the bigger the loop, the more open you are. ( 同样的道理也适用于字母“ e”的眼睛——圈越大，你就越开放。)”符合上下文语境。故选E。
【19题详解】
根据后文“With computers and iPhones, many type everything. Handwriting is often used recreationally for things, such as personal notes, song writing, and journaling. (有了电脑和iphone，很多人什么都可以打字。书写通常用于消遣，如个人笔记、写歌和写日记。)”可知，因为有了电子设备，现代人书写少了。所以选择项G“Although handwriting is a basic action for most, this generation probably doesn’t get as much practice as previous ones. (虽然对大多数人来说，书写是一种基本的动作，但这一代人可能没有像上一代人那样得到那么多的练习。)”符合上下文语境。故选G。
【20题详解】
根据前句“There is no problem in taking pride in your handwriting, whether it’s good or not. (对自己的书写感到自豪是没有问题的，不管它是好是坏。)”和后文“If you’re the only one who is going to read your notes, it’s understandable to write however carelessly you want, as long as you can read them. If you’re writing for others, you might want to make sure everything is neat and easy to read.(如果你是唯一一个会看你笔记的人，只要你能看懂笔记，你想写多粗心都可以理解。如果你是为别人写作，你可能想要确保一切都是整洁的，易于阅读。)”可知，要了解书写的目的。所以选择项C“As long as your writing satisfies its purpose, you’re in business. (只要你的写作满足了它的目的，你就达到目的了。)”符合上下文语境。故选C。

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 ran after the train, shouting, “Hey mister, can’t you see me?” It was hopeless, as no conductor is going to slow down for a 60-year-old man who got to the station several minutes late. They absolutely didn’t know how important that day, that train ride was to me! I was on my way to an interview for what could have been the opportunity of a lifetime.
I threw both my hat and my art case down in depression, and sat down on the nearest chair, wiping (擦掉) the sweat from my face and breathing heavily. I would have to wait a whole day for the next train, and by then my appointment with the gallery owner would have given up on me. Perhaps it was for the best. It was, after all, the first time in 40 years anyone had shown such an interest in my art. Maybe if the gallery owner had seen all my paintings, he would have changed his mind about offering me space on his walls.
Disappointment filled my soul. Should I dial the gallery and get an interview on a different day? But Pierre Gianni was the owner of the most well-known gallery in New York City. Why would he give a rare second chance to an elderly nobody when he had the newest, coolest young artists to choose from?
Come to think of it, perhaps these insecurities were the very reason I had never been offered a show before. I was too afraid to try. I found countless excuses not to offer my work up to be seen and perhaps criticized. I told myself it would hurt too much if I failed, but the truth was that I had never tried.
Finally, I gathered all my courage to dial the gallery, only to find my antique cell phone had broken down. It was at the very moment that I was in total despair and decided to go home.

【答案】参考范文
Paragraph 1:
Suddenly I felt a touch on my shoulder. I turned around and saw an old man smiling gently at me. He told me that he had noticed the trouble which I was in and offered to lend me his phone. I wanted to express my heartfelt gratitude to him but words got stuck in my throat. Taking the phone he passed to me, I managed to collect myself and plucked up my courage to dial Pierre. After what seemed like an eternity, the phone was picked up. To my great relief, Pierre agreed to postpone the interview.
Paragraph 2:
The next morning I got to the gallery on time. I was staring at its grandeur when Pierre approached and welcomed me warmly. Several minutes later, with trembling hands I opened my art case and showed him my paintings one by one. Pierre fixed his eyes on my works with interest, listening to me attentively. Time ticking by, I grew more and more confident and excited. He loved my works! They were scheduled to be exhibited one month later! I was never more certain that what seems far beyond is simply a leap away if you dare to give it a try.
【解析】
【导语】本文以故事发展为线索展开，讲述在赶往面试的路上，作者因没赶上火车而沮丧。更让作者失望的是，他不知道画廊老板皮埃尔是否会对他的画感兴趣，给他展出的机会。当作者鼓足勇气给皮埃尔打电话时，却发现手机坏了。这时，一位老人走过来把手机借给作者。让作者欣慰的是，皮埃尔同意推迟面试。在第二天的面试中，皮埃尔表示对作者的画很感兴趣，并计划一个月后让作者展出。
