One night many years ago when I was on the bridge of a ship that passed one of our large cities on a quiet night, I saw its lights reflected in the sky and heard the rumblings of the city's noises. As I looked to my other side, I could see nothing but open space of darkness and endless water. I realized how small I was and that my own problems of life did not seem great.
I have spent twenty—five years on boats. Now I am a docking pilot. My job is to bring in the large luxury liners and stay with them until they are safely anchored in their berths. Sometimes this requires two tugs(拖船), sometimes many more, depending on the tide, the weather, and the draft of the vessel.
Most of you no doubt have seen these tugs pushing and pulling at the big liners. What they are doing doesn't seem to make much sense at first, but presently the big boat is alongside her landing stage, her ropes made fast, and the job is done.
These tugs, whether one or ten, move about in accord with whistle signals I send them from the bridge of the big liner. These signals make up a language that is just as dependable as the spoken word; or even more so, because our docking signals are rarely misunderstood. The captain of each tug does his work according to the signals he receives. He never asks questions. He takes everything on faith, and it always works out.
I fell very important the first time I ever docked a big liner, thinking that I was in control of a great ship worth millions of dollars and the owners were depending on me to bring her safely to her berth. After I had docked several of the large liners, I realized I was not important, but simply the quarterback who called the signals.
Working around tugboats has had its effect on what I believe. The great transatlantic liners depend on the help of the little tugs to bring them safely to port, and it is with one's success.
24、According to paragraph 3, originally, the job of a tugboat was _______.
A.important B.humble C.tough D.complex
25、What is the main purpose of writing paragraph 4?
A.To give a detailed description. B.To display the characteristics.
C.To make a comparison. D.To help reveal the theme.
26、According to the passage, one's success depends on ______.
A.diligence B.mutual assistance C.learning D.individual excellence
27、Which of the following can be the best title of the passage?
A.Tugboats and the Pilot B.The Significance of Teamwork
C.The Workings of Tugboats D.Philosophy from Tugboats
Take a look at that tree in the local park. What might it be feeling? Could it be thinking? Experiments are exploring the idea of plant cognition, even going so far as to suggest they possess some form of consciousness.
As wild as it sounds, it isn’t a new idea. The field of “plant neurobiology (神经生物学)” began in 2006, aimed at understanding how plants process information from their environment.
It is now clear that plants are capable of complex communication and can sense their surroundings, which were originally dismissed. But advocates of plant consciousness take things further and draw parallels between the electrical signaling that can be found from root to stem and that present in the nervous system of animals. They claim to show that plants are capable of intentionally choosing to perform certain behaviors, of learning and perhaps even having personalities. If plants are experiencing a conscious inner world, they argue, it becomes vital that we find ways to test and understand it.
Extending the concept of cognition to plants would mean a significant shift in our view of the uniqueness of humanity, not to mention how we treat our botanical friends, so the bar of acceptance is high. Researchers rising to the challenge are hoping to explore plants with tools usually reserved for the human brain.
The research can appear persuasive, but it is in its early stage and suffers from repeated failure. Critics say the field is a high guess and that the behaviour can be explained through inborn response.
Whether we decide that plants have cognition may come down to our ability to describe consciousness itself-something we are far from doing. But rather than dismiss the idea, we should welcome the chance to think up new ways to test our understanding of consciousness. It might just improve our grasp of the human mind. At the very least, our trees and plants should benefit from the extra attention—consciously or not.
28、What do supporters of plant consciousness believe?
A. Plants can only perform native reaction.
B. Plants can perceive their surroundings and adapt to them.
C. Plants possess the same level of consciousness as humans.
D. Plants can communicate complicatedly and choose actions deliberately.
29、What is the main challenge in accepting the idea of plant consciousness?
A. The need to develop tools to test plant cognition.
B. The dramatic change in our view of the distinctiveness of humanity.
C. The lack of evidence in the field of plant neurobiology.
D. The inability to describe consciousness itself.
30、What does the underlined word “dismissed” in Paragraph 3 probably mean?
A. disliked B. discussed C. rejected D. confirmed
31、What is the potential benefit of studying plant consciousness?
A. Enhancing our understanding of the human brain.
B. Developing new ways to test plant behaviors.
C. Promoting our relationship with plants.
D. Proving the existence of plant cognition.
When special occasions such as birthdays or other big holiday events come around, parents often look for that special toy for their children. But there is a growing understanding that gifts of time and bonding, such as vacations and other experiences, make better and more lasting gifts for children.
Experts agree that gifting children with memorable trips and fun experiences is better for their body and mind, and has corresponding positive impacts on the rest of the family!
In a 2017 study that surveyed about 500 women between 18 and 93 years old, Dr. Oravecz, a human development and family studies professor at Pennsylvania State University, asked, “Most people feel loved when...” The study showed that the most popular answers had nothing to do with any material item. Dr. Oravecz said, “Our research found that micro-moments of positivity, like a kind word, a hug with a child or a sympathetic expression, make people feel most loved.”
Clinical psychologist Oliver James agrees. He stated that as opposed to toys, details from a trip are more likely to “stick with them for long after the vacation ends.” When families interact in a stress-free environment, this creates warm, generous feelings towards one another, which are likely to be remembered with fondness. Vacations create strong emotional responses that don’t often come with material possessions.
In addition, British child psychologist Dr. Margot Sunderland believes that vacations make children smarter. “What is less widely known is that vacations can also advance brain development in children. This is because on a family vacation, you are exercising two genetically ingrained systems deep in the brain’s limbic (边缘的) area, which can all too easily be ‘unexercised’ in the home.” Citing the work of neuroscientist Jaak Panksepp, Dr. Sunderland said, “These are the PLAY system and the SEEKING system.” “The brain’s PLAY system is exercised every time you bury your child’s feet in the sand or take them for a ride on your back. The SEEKING system is exercised each time you go exploring together: the beach, a cave, a hidden village...” She continued, “So when you take your child on a vacation, you are supporting their explorative urge (SEEKING system)—a vital resource for living life well, and their capacity to play (PLAY system). In adulthood, this translates into the ability to play with ideas—essential, for example, to the successful entrepreneur(企业家).”
In a busy household, perhaps the fun of having the latest toy may not last, but the space it occupies in the house could be there and gather dust. So for the next round of gift-giving with the children, consider an experiential gift instead. The return is definitely priceless.
32、From Dr. Oravecz’s study, we know that ________.
A. hearing kind words can make a person feel most loved
B. a special toy for a birthday is more lasting for children
C. women at the age of 18 and 93 years old feel more loved
D. the feeling of being loved is closely related to material gifts
33、What can be inferred from the passage?
A. The capacity to play can translate into the ability to seek.
B. The SEEKING system can develop when adventuring in the wild.
C. PLAY and SEEKING systems are more easily exercised at home.
D. Burying your child’s feet in the sand is exercising the SEEKING system.
34、According to the passage, the author may agree that ________.
A. material gifts are better for a child’s body and mind
B. children spending vacations with their parents are more generous
C. trips with family can form better emotional interactions than material gifts
D. vacations with employees are a waste of time for a successful entrepreneur
35、What would be the best title for the text?
A. Vacations Make Children Smarter
B. Vacations Make Better Gifts
C. Trips are priceless
D. Memorable Trips and Fun Experiences

36、What is a Food Critic

With the life of senior high school approaching to an end, I have many memory flooding into my mind. I can still remember how unwillingly I was to get up early in order to get to school on time. “If I had studied much hard before, I would have gone to a better university,” I said to myself. However, I later realized how much I loved a school.
The campus is beautiful. The Xinghu Lake, where lies at the side of a small hill, impresses me most. Surrounded green trees, I can admire various fishes. I often wander around the charming lake and see myself reflecting in its clean water. Walked in such attractive scenery, I get all the pressures released. The kind teachers and easy-going classmates also warm my heart and cheer me up when I am in low spirits.
Every time when I recall my unforgettable moments, I smile. We’ve all grew over these three years.

20、答案：C
解析：During the summer you should be even more careful than usual because food goes bad faster in hot weather than in cold weather. When you buy frozen and refrigerated foods, don’t make long stops on your way home because frozen foods could become soft or warm. Using bags helps keep food cold until you can get home. Milk and milk products should be refrigerated immediately. When camping or picnicking or at any time when refrigeration can’t be made use of, use special dry foods. Don’t leave food in a hot car. Picnic favorites like meat, chicken and eggs should be kept in a cooler box. Above all, if the food doesn’t seem to be normal in smell or appearance, throw it away immediately. Don’t taste it.

解析：推理判断题。根据第四段内容These tugs, whether one or ten,move about in accord with whistle signals I send them from the bridge of the big liner.These signals make up a language that is just as dependable as the spoken word;or even more so,because our docking signals are rarely misunderstood.The captain of each tug does his work according to the signals he receives.He never asks questions.He takes everything on faith,and it always works out..(这些拖船,无论一艘还是I0艘,它们的行动都是听命于我在巨轮舰桥上的鸣笛信号。这些信号便是一种语言,它的可靠程度可与口头语言相比,甚至有过之而无不及。这是因为我们的汽笛信号几乎不会被误解。每镀拖船的船长会根据接收到的指令严格行动。而对于我的指挥,他们毫无疑问且完全信任,它总是起作用。)可知,远洋航行的万吨巨轮要想安全入港停泊,还得依靠小小拖船的帮助。因此推断本段通过讲述拖船的工作,阐述文章的注题,相互帮助的重要性,故选D。
26、答案：B
解析：推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“Working around tugboats has had its effect on what I believe, The great transatlantic liners depend on the help of the little tugs to bring them safely to port, and it is with one's success.(在拖船周围工作对我相信的东西产生了影响。远洋航行的万吨巨轮要想安全入港停泊,还得依靠小小拖船的帮助一样。它就像一个人的成功)”可推断,一个人的成功就像巨轮需要小小拖船才能安全进入港湾,需要相互帮助。故选B。
27、答案：D
解析：主旨大意题。根据全文内容,特别是最后一段Working around tugboats has had its effect on what I believe.The great transatlantic liners depend on the help of the little tugs to bring them safely to port,and it is with one's success.(在拖船周围工作对我相信的东西产生了影响。远洋航行的万吨巨轮要想安全入港停泊,还得依靠小小拖船的帮助一样。它就像一个人的成功)可知,作者通过描写拖船的工作来揭示人生的道理,一个人的成功需要相互帮助,故选D。
28、答案：D
解析：细节理解题。由本文第三段的It is now clear that plants are capable of complex communication and can sense their surroundings，which were originally dismissed.But advocates of plant consciousness take things further and draw parallels between the electrical signaling that can be found from root to stem and that present in the nervous system of animals.They claim to show that plants are capable of intentionally choosing to perform certain behaviors，of learning and perhaps even having personalities.（现在很清楚的是，植物能够进行复杂的交流，并能感知周围的环境，这一点最初被忽视了。但植物意识的支持者们更进一步，他们把从根到茎的电信号与存在于动物神经系统中的电信号相提并论。他们声称，植物能够有意识地选择执行某些行为，学习，甚至有个性。）可知植物意识的支持者认为植物可以进行复杂的交流，并有意识地选择行动。故选D。
29、答案：B
解析：细节理解题。由本文最后一段Whether we decide that plants have cognition may come down to our ability to describe consciousness itself-something we are far from doing.But rather than dismiss the idea，we should welcome the chance to think up new ways to test our understanding of consciousness.（我们是否认定植物具有认知能力可能取决于我们描述意识本身的能力，而我们还远没有做到这一点。但我们不应该拒绝这个想法，而是应该欢迎有机会想出新的方法来测试我们对意识的理解。）可知接受植物意识的主要挑战是我们不能描述意识本身。故选B。
30、答案：C
解析：词义猜测题。根据划线词所在的句子It is now clear that plants are capable of complex communication and can sense their surroundings，which were originally dismissed.But advocates of plant consciousness take things further and draw parallels between the electrical signaling that can be found from root to stem and that present in the nervous system of animals（现在很清楚，植物能够进行复杂的交流，并能感知它们周围的环境，这一点最初是被忽视的。但是植物意识的支持者们更进一步，把从根到茎的电信号与动物神经系统中的电信号进行了比较。）可知划线词的意思是"忽视，拒绝"。A.disliked不喜欢；B.discussed讨论；C.rejected拒绝；D.confirmed确认。故选C。
31、答案：A
解析：细节理解题。由本文最后一段的It might just improve our grasp of the human mind.（它可能会提高我们对人类大脑的理解。）可知，研究植物意识潜在的好处是可以提高我们对人类大脑的认识。故选A。
32、答案：A
解析：推理判断题。根据第三段Oravecz said，"Our research found that micro-moments of positivity，like a kind word，a hug with a child or a sympathetic expression，make people feel most loved."（奥拉维奇博士说"我们的研究发现，微小的积极时刻，比如一句亲切的话、与孩子的拥抱或同情的表情，会让人们感到最被爱。"）可知从奥拉维奇博士的研究中，我们知道听到善意的话语会让人感到最被爱。故选A。
33、答案：B
解析：推理判断题。根据第五段The SEEKING system is exercised each time you go exploring together：the beach，a cave，a hidden village..."She continued，"So when you take your child on a vacation，you are supporting their explorative urge（SEEKING system）—a vital resource for living life well，and their capacity to play（PLAY system）.In adulthood，this translates into the ability to play with ideas—essential，for example，to the successful entrepreneur（企业家）."（每次你们一起探索时，都会使用SEEKING系统：海滩、洞穴、隐藏的村庄...她继续说道："所以，当你带孩子度假时，你是在支持他们的探索冲动（寻找系统）——这是过好生活的重要资源，也是他们玩耍的能力（玩耍系统）。"。成年后，这转化为运用对成功企业家来说至关重要的想法的能力。"）可知从这段话中可以推断出在野外探险时，SEEKING系统可以发展。故选B。
34、答案：C
解析：推理判断题。根据最后一段 In a busy household，perhaps the fun of having the latest toy may not last，but the space it occupies in the house could be there and gather dust.So for the next round of gift-giving with the children，consider an experiential gift instead.The return is definitely priceless.（在一个忙碌的家庭中，拥有最新玩具的乐趣可能不会持续下去，但它在家里占据的空间可能会在那里积灰。因此，在下一轮与孩子们一起送礼时，可以考虑一份体验式礼物。回报绝对是无价的。）可知根据这段话，作者认为与家人一起旅行可以形成比物质礼物更好的情感互动。故选C。
35、答案：B
解析：标题归纳题。阅读全文以及根据第一段When special occasions such as birthdays or other big holiday events come around，parents often look for that special toy for their children.But there is a growing understanding that gifts of time and bonding，such as vacations and other experiences，make better and more lasting gifts for children.（当生日或其他重大节日活动等特殊场合来临时，父母通常会为孩子寻找这种特殊的玩具。但人们越来越认识到，时间和感情的礼物，如假期和其他经历，会给孩子带来更好、更持久的礼物。）可知本文主要讲述了在重大节日时，给孩子时间和感情的礼物，会给孩子们带来更好、更持久的礼物。所以"B.Vacations Make Better Gifts假期是更好的礼物"为最佳标题。故选B。
36、答案：①-⑤FDGCE
解析：①F.细节理解题。根据上文"A food critic is a writer who specializes in writing criticisms of food. Like theater and movie critics， food critics are supposed to provide thoughtful， well-informed， and objective information to the public so that members of the public can make decisions about where to spend their money.（食物评论家是专门写食物评论的作家。就像戏剧和电影评论家一样，美食评论家应该为公众提供深思熟虑的、见多识广的和客观的信息，以便公众可以决定他们的钱花在哪里）"以及后文"However some may also engage in more general food writing.（然而，有些人可能会从事更一般的食物写作）"可知 ，上文提到了食物评论家这种职业的含义和工作内容，后文则说了有些人会从事的写作内容，可推测本句是在说明食物评论家主要创作的写作类型。故F选项食物评论家主要写评价餐馆的文章，从快餐店到高档餐厅"符合语境，故选F.
②D.推理判断题。根据上文"Becoming a food critic takes time. Many food critics pursue professional experiences in the world of food， attending culinary schools， working in restaurants， participating in farming， and so forth.（成为一名美食评论家需要时间。许多美食评论家追求在食物世界的专业经验，参加烹饪学校，在餐馆工作，参与农业，等等）"可知，上文提到了美食评论家会从事与食品相关的各种行业，故本句与上文构成因果关系，指出美食评论家从事与食品相关的各种行业的结果是：可以了解食品工业的各个方面。D选项中They指代上文food critics。故D选项"因此，他们可以了解食品工业的各个方面"符合语境，故选D。
③G.归纳总结题。根据后文"Food critics may move between publishers over the course of their careers， or start working for the food section of a paper and working up to a position as a food critic. A handful of critics become well known and well respected， with most primarily being known only in the area they serve.在他们的职业生涯中，美食评论家可能会在出版商之间转行，或者开始在报纸的美食版块工作，最终成为一名美食评论家。少数评论家成为知名人士和受人尊敬的人，他们大多只在他们服务的领域内为人所知）"可知，本段主要叙述的是美食评论家开始创作文章的过程， G选项中newspapers对应后文中a paper。故G选项"一旦一个美食评论家获得了经验，他或她可以开始为杂志和报纸写文章"符合语境，故选G。
④C.推理判断题。根据上文"Professional integrity is very important for food critics. Many make reservations and visit restaurants anonymously， so that they get an idea of how a restaurant serves ordinary customers. They also make repeat visits so that they can make fair and balanced assessments of a restaurant and its offerings.（职业操守对美食评论家来说非常重要。许多人匿名预订和访问餐馆， 这样他们就能了解餐馆是如何服务普通顾客的。他们还会反复光顾，以便对一家餐厅及其提供的服务做出公平、 平衡的评价）"以及后文"Implications of favoritism or bribery can ruin the reputation of a food critic. （偏袒或贿赂的暗示会毁掉美食评论家的声誉）"可知，本段主要论述的是美食评论家的职业操守问题，且后文提到了接受贿赂会毁掉美食评论家的声誉，即强调不要接受餐厅老板的送礼。故C选项避免餐馆老板送礼也很重要"符合语境，故选C。
⑤E.推理判断题。根据上文"This is what food critics are like. They describe and evaluate the food， providing opinions on its quality.（这就是美食评论家。他们描述和评价食物，对其质量提供意见）"以及后文"These can be used as a reference for readers to make decisions.这些可以作为读者做决定的参考）可知，上文提到了美食评论家描述和评价食物，后文提到为读者做参考，可推测本句承接上文说明美食评论家在考虑了餐饮体验后，会得出评级，来为读者做参考。故E选项"在考虑餐饮体验的所有方面后，他们产生了评级"符合语境，故选E.

68、答案：
With the life of senior high school approaching to an end, I have many flooding into my mind. I can still remember how I was to get up early in order to get to school on time. “If I had studied much before, I would have gone to better university,” I said to myself. However, I later realized how much I loved a school.
The campus is beautiful. The Xinghu Lake, lies at the side of a small hill, impresses me most. Surrounded green trees, I can admire various fishes. I often wander around the charming lake and see myself in its clean water. in such attractive scenery, I get all the pressures released. The kind teachers and easy-going classmates also warm my heart and cheer me up when I am in low spirits.
Every time I recall my unforgettable moments, I smile. We’ve all over these three years.
解析：1.考查名词的数。句意：随着高中生活的临近，我的脑海中充斥着许多记忆。代词many修饰名词的复数形式。故将memory改为memories。
2.考查形容词。句意：我还记得为了按时上学，我是多么不情愿地早起。be unwilling to do sth.为固定短语，意为“不情愿做某事”。故将unwillingly改为unwilling。
3.考查形容词比较级。句意：“如果我以前好好学习，我会上一所更好的大学，”我对自己说。much修饰形容词比较级。故将hard改为harder。
4.考查冠词。句意：然而，后来我意识到我是多么热爱这所学校。本处的名词school特指上文提到的我所在的高中，应用定冠词the表示特指。故将a改为the。
5.考查定语从句。句意：校园很美。星湖坐落在一座小山的边上，给我印象最深。非限制性定语从句中缺主语，指代先行词The Xinghu Lake，应用关系代词which引导从句。故将where改为which。
6.考查介词。句意：被绿树环绕，我可以欣赏各种各样的鱼。can admire为谓语动词，动词surround作状语，应用非谓语动词形式，be surrounded by为固定短语，意为“被……环绕”，作非谓语动词时应去掉be，构成过去分词短语。故green前加by/with。
7.考查非谓语动词。句意：我经常在迷人的湖面上漫步，看到自己在清澈的水中倒影。结合句意“我看见自己被倒映在水中”，应用过去分词作宾语补足语，构成固定短语see sth. done，意为“看见某事被做”。故将reflecting改为reflected。
8.考查非谓语动词。句意：走在如此迷人的风景中，我释放了所有的压力。get为谓语动词，动词walk应用非谓语动词作状语，walk和逻辑主语I之间为主谓关系，应用现在分词作状语。故将Walked改为Walking。
9.考查状语从句。句意：每当我回忆起难忘的时刻，我都会微笑。本句有两组时间状语从句连词，结合句意“每次”应用every time引导状语从句。故删掉every time后的when。
10.考查动词时态。句意：在这三年里，我们都成长了。根据时间状语over these three years可知，本句用现在完成时，现在完成时中应用动词的过去分词形式。故将grew改为grown。
69、答案：
Dear Sir or Madam,
I’m writing to express my dissatisfaction about the service of Morning Star Travel Agency, with which I participated in a three-day trip to Henan during the May Day holiday.
The reason why I want to express my complaint about it is that there is a big difference between their ads and actions. First and foremost, as they say, the traffic they provide is a large air-conditioned bus, but what we actually rode was a shabby bus without any air-conditioning. Furthermore, they served us lunch tasting terrible and even with sand. What was more annoying was that we couldn’t enjoy any kind of shower in cold water. Most importantly, the guides led us to several expensive souvenir shops, which wasted us so much time that two scenery spots were left unseen in the end.
I sincerely hope that something can be done to prevent such things happening again. I would appreciate it if you can take effective measures as soon as possible.
Yours sincerely,
Alan

One night many years ago when I was on the bridge of a ship that passed one of our large cities on a quiet night, I saw its lights reflected in the sky and heard the rumblings of the city's noises. As I looked to my other side, I could see nothing but open space of darkness and endless water. I realized how small I was and that my own problems of life did not seem great.
I have spent twenty—five years on boats. Now I am a docking pilot. My job is to bring in the large luxury liners and stay with them until they are safely anchored in their berths. Sometimes this requires two tugs(拖船), sometimes many more, depending on the tide, the weather, and the draft of the vessel.
Most of you no doubt have seen these tugs pushing and pulling at the big liners. What they are doing doesn't seem to make much sense at first, but presently the big boat is alongside her landing stage, her ropes made fast, and the job is done.
These tugs, whether one or ten, move about in accord with whistle signals I send them from the bridge of the big liner. These signals make up a language that is just as dependable as the spoken word; or even more so, because our docking signals are rarely misunderstood. The captain of each tug does his work according to the signals he receives. He never asks questions. He takes everything on faith, and it always works out.
I fell very important the first time I ever docked a big liner, thinking that I was in control of a great ship worth millions of dollars and the owners were depending on me to bring her safely to her berth. After I had docked several of the large liners, I realized I was not important, but simply the quarterback who called the signals.
Working around tugboats has had its effect on what I believe. The great transatlantic liners depend on the help of the little tugs to bring them safely to port, and it is with one's success.
24、According to paragraph 3, originally, the job of a tugboat was _______.
A.important B.humble C.tough D.complex
25、What is the main purpose of writing paragraph 4?
A.To give a detailed description. B.To display the characteristics.
C.To make a comparison. D.To help reveal the theme.
26、According to the passage, one's success depends on ______.
A.diligence B.mutual assistance C.learning D.individual excellence
27、Which of the following can be the best title of the passage?
A.Tugboats and the Pilot B.The Significance of Teamwork
C.The Workings of Tugboats D.Philosophy from Tugboats
Take a look at that tree in the local park. What might it be feeling? Could it be thinking? Experiments are exploring the idea of plant cognition, even going so far as to suggest they possess some form of consciousness.
As wild as it sounds, it isn’t a new idea. The field of “plant neurobiology (神经生物学)” began in 2006, aimed at understanding how plants process information from their environment.
It is now clear that plants are capable of complex communication and can sense their surroundings, which were originally dismissed. But advocates of plant consciousness take things further and draw parallels between the electrical signaling that can be found from root to stem and that present in the nervous system of animals. They claim to show that plants are capable of intentionally choosing to perform certain behaviors, of learning and perhaps even having personalities. If plants are experiencing a conscious inner world, they argue, it becomes vital that we find ways to test and understand it.
Extending the concept of cognition to plants would mean a significant shift in our view of the uniqueness of humanity, not to mention how we treat our botanical friends, so the bar of acceptance is high. Researchers rising to the challenge are hoping to explore plants with tools usually reserved for the human brain.
The research can appear persuasive, but it is in its early stage and suffers from repeated failure. Critics say the field is a high guess and that the behaviour can be explained through inborn response.
Whether we decide that plants have cognition may come down to our ability to describe consciousness itself-something we are far from doing. But rather than dismiss the idea, we should welcome the chance to think up new ways to test our understanding of consciousness. It might just improve our grasp of the human mind. At the very least, our trees and plants should benefit from the extra attention—consciously or not.
28、What do supporters of plant consciousness believe?
A. Plants can only perform native reaction.
B. Plants can perceive their surroundings and adapt to them.
C. Plants possess the same level of consciousness as humans.

When special occasions such as birthdays or other big holiday events come around, parents often look for that special toy for their children. But there is a growing understanding that gifts of time and bonding, such as vacations and other experiences, make better and more lasting gifts for children.
Experts agree that gifting children with memorable trips and fun experiences is better for their body and mind, and has corresponding positive impacts on the rest of the family!
In a 2017 study that surveyed about 500 women between 18 and 93 years old, Dr. Oravecz, a human development and family studies professor at Pennsylvania State University, asked, “Most people feel loved when...” The study showed that the most popular answers had nothing to do with any material item. Dr. Oravecz said, “Our research found that micro-moments of positivity, like a kind word, a hug with a child or a sympathetic expression, make people feel most loved.”
Clinical psychologist Oliver James agrees. He stated that as opposed to toys, details from a trip are more likely to “stick with them for long after the vacation ends.” When families interact in a stress-free environment, this creates warm, generous feelings towards one another, which are likely to be remembered with fondness. Vacations create strong emotional responses that don’t often come with material possessions.
In addition, British child psychologist Dr. Margot Sunderland believes that vacations make children smarter. “What is less widely known is that vacations can also advance brain development in children. This is because on a family vacation, you are exercising two genetically ingrained systems deep in the brain’s limbic (边缘的) area, which can all too easily be ‘unexercised’ in the home.” Citing the work of neuroscientist Jaak Panksepp, Dr. Sunderland said, “These are the PLAY system and the SEEKING system.” “The brain’s PLAY system is exercised every time you bury your child’s feet in the sand or take them for a ride on your back. The SEEKING system is exercised each time you go exploring together: the beach, a cave, a hidden village...” She continued, “So when you take your child on a vacation, you are supporting their explorative urge (SEEKING system)—a vital resource for living life well, and their capacity to play (PLAY system). In adulthood, this translates into the ability to play with ideas—essential, for example, to the successful entrepreneur(企业家).”
In a busy household, perhaps the fun of having the latest toy may not last, but the space it occupies in the house could be there and gather dust. So for the next round of gift-giving with the children, consider an experiential gift instead. The return is definitely priceless.
32、From Dr. Oravecz’s study, we know that ________.
A. hearing kind words can make a person feel most loved
B. a special toy for a birthday is more lasting for children
C. women at the age of 18 and 93 years old feel more loved
D. the feeling of being loved is closely related to material gifts
33、What can be inferred from the passage?
A. The capacity to play can translate into the ability to seek.
B. The SEEKING system can develop when adventuring in the wild.
C. PLAY and SEEKING systems are more easily exercised at home.
D. Burying your child’s feet in the sand is exercising the SEEKING system.
34、According to the passage, the author may agree that ________.
A. material gifts are better for a child’s body and mind
B. children spending vacations with their parents are more generous
C. trips with family can form better emotional interactions than material gifts
D. vacations with employees are a waste of time for a successful entrepreneur
35、What would be the best title for the text?
A. Vacations Make Children Smarter
B. Vacations Make Better Gifts
C. Trips are priceless
D. Memorable Trips and Fun Experiences

With the life of senior high school approaching to an end, I have many memory flooding into my mind. I can still remember how unwillingly I was to get up early in order to get to school on time. “If I had studied much hard before, I would have gone to a better university,” I said to myself. However, I later realized how much I loved a school.
The campus is beautiful. The Xinghu Lake, where lies at the side of a small hill, impresses me most. Surrounded green trees, I can admire various fishes. I often wander around the charming lake and see myself reflecting in its clean water. Walked in such attractive scenery, I get all the pressures released. The kind teachers and easy-going classmates also warm my heart and cheer me up when I am in low spirits.
Every time when I recall my unforgettable moments, I smile. We’ve all grew over these three years.

20、答案：C
解析：During the summer you should be even more careful than usual because food goes bad faster in hot weather than in cold weather. When you buy frozen and refrigerated foods, don’t make long stops on your way home because frozen foods could become soft or warm. Using bags helps keep food cold until you can get home. Milk and milk products should be refrigerated immediately. When camping or picnicking or at any time when refrigeration can’t be made use of, use special dry foods. Don’t leave food in a hot car. Picnic favorites like meat, chicken and eggs should be kept in a cooler box. Above all, if the food doesn’t seem to be normal in smell or appearance, throw it away immediately. Don’t taste it.

25、答案：D
解析：推理判断题。根据第四段内容These tugs, whether one or ten,move about in accord with whistle signals I send them from the bridge of the big liner.These signals make up a language that is just as dependable as the spoken word;or even more so,because our docking signals are rarely misunderstood.The captain of each tug does his work according to the signals he receives.He never asks questions.He takes everything on faith,and it always works out..(这些拖船,无论一艘还是I0艘,它们的行动都是听命于我在巨轮舰桥上的鸣笛信号。这些信号便是一种语言,它的可靠程度可与口头语言相比,甚至有过之而无不及。这是因为我们的汽笛信号几乎不会被误解。每镀拖船的船长会根据接收到的指令严格行动。而对于我的指挥,他们毫无疑问且完全信任,它总是起作用。)可知,远洋航行的万吨巨轮要想安全入港停泊,还得依靠小小拖船的帮助。因此推断本段通过讲述拖船的工作,阐述文章的注题,相互帮助的重要性,故选D。
26、答案：B
解析：推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“Working around tugboats has had its effect on what I believe, The great transatlantic liners depend on the help of the little tugs to bring them safely to port, and it is with one's success.(在拖船周围工作对我相信的东西产生了影响。远洋航行的万吨巨轮要想安全入港停泊,还得依靠小小拖船的帮助一样。它就像一个人的成功)”可推断,一个人的成功就像巨轮需要小小拖船才能安全进入港湾,需要相互帮助。故选B。
27、答案：D
解析：主旨大意题。根据全文内容,特别是最后一段Working around tugboats has had its effect on what I believe.The great transatlantic liners depend on the help of the little tugs to bring them safely to port,and it is with one's success.(在拖船周围工作对我相信的东西产生了影响。远洋航行的万吨巨轮要想安全入港停泊,还得依靠小小拖船的帮助一样。它就像一个人的成功)可知,作者通过描写拖船的工作来揭示人生的道理,一个人的成功需要相互帮助,故选D。
28、答案：D
解析：细节理解题。由本文第三段的It is now clear that plants are capable of complex communication and can sense their surroundings，which were originally dismissed.But advocates of plant consciousness take things further and draw parallels between the electrical signaling that can be found from root to stem and that present in the nervous system of animals.They claim to show that plants are capable of intentionally choosing to perform certain behaviors，of learning and perhaps even having personalities.（现在很清楚的是，植物能够进行复杂的交流，并能感知周围的环境，这一点最初被忽视了。但植物意识的支持者们更进一步，他们把从根到茎的电信号与存在于动物神经系统中的电信号相提并论。他们声称，植物能够有意识地选择执行某些行为，学习，甚至有个性。）可知植物意识的支持者认为植物可以进行复杂的交流，并有意识地选择行动。故选D。
29、答案：B
解析：细节理解题。由本文最后一段Whether we decide that plants have cognition may come down to our ability to describe consciousness itself-something we are far from doing.But rather than dismiss the idea，we should welcome the chance to think up new ways to test our understanding of consciousness.（我们是否认定植物具有认知能力可能取决于我们描述意识本身的能力，而我们还远没有做到这一点。但我们不应该拒绝这个想法，而是应该欢迎有机会想出新的方法来测试我们对意识的理解。）可知接受植物意识的主要挑战是我们不能描述意识本身。故选B。
30、答案：C
解析：词义猜测题。根据划线词所在的句子It is now clear that plants are capable of complex communication and can sense their surroundings，which were originally dismissed.But advocates of plant consciousness take things further and draw parallels between the electrical signaling that can be found from root to stem and that present in the nervous system of animals（现在很清楚，植物能够进行复杂的交流，并能感知它们周围的环境，这一点最初是被忽视的。但是植物意识的支持者们更进一步，把从根到茎的电信号与动物神经系统中的电信号进行了比较。）可知划线词的意思是"忽视，拒绝"。A.disliked不喜欢；B.discussed讨论；C.rejected拒绝；D.confirmed确认。故选C。
31、答案：A
解析：细节理解题。由本文最后一段的It might just improve our grasp of the human mind.（它可能会提高我们对人类大脑的理解。）可知，研究植物意识潜在的好处是可以提高我们对人类大脑的认识。故选A。

解析：推理判断题。根据第三段Oravecz said，"Our research found that micro-moments of positivity，like a kind word，a hug with a child or a sympathetic expression，make people feel most loved."（奥拉维奇博士说"我们的研究发现，微小的积极时刻，比如一句亲切的话、与孩子的拥抱或同情的表情，会让人们感到最被爱。"）可知从奥拉维奇博士的研究中，我们知道听到善意的话语会让人感到最被爱。故选A。
33、答案：B
解析：推理判断题。根据第五段The SEEKING system is exercised each time you go exploring together：the beach，a cave，a hidden village..."She continued，"So when you take your child on a vacation，you are supporting their explorative urge（SEEKING system）—a vital resource for living life well，and their capacity to play（PLAY system）.In adulthood，this translates into the ability to play with ideas—essential，for example，to the successful entrepreneur（企业家）."（每次你们一起探索时，都会使用SEEKING系统：海滩、洞穴、隐藏的村庄...她继续说道："所以，当你带孩子度假时，你是在支持他们的探索冲动（寻找系统）——这是过好生活的重要资源，也是他们玩耍的能力（玩耍系统）。"。成年后，这转化为运用对成功企业家来说至关重要的想法的能力。"）可知从这段话中可以推断出在野外探险时，SEEKING系统可以发展。故选B。
34、答案：C
解析：推理判断题。根据最后一段 In a busy household，perhaps the fun of having the latest toy may not last，but the space it occupies in the house could be there and gather dust.So for the next round of gift-giving with the children，consider an experiential gift instead.The return is definitely priceless.（在一个忙碌的家庭中，拥有最新玩具的乐趣可能不会持续下去，但它在家里占据的空间可能会在那里积灰。因此，在下一轮与孩子们一起送礼时，可以考虑一份体验式礼物。回报绝对是无价的。）可知根据这段话，作者认为与家人一起旅行可以形成比物质礼物更好的情感互动。故选C。
35、答案：B
解析：标题归纳题。阅读全文以及根据第一段When special occasions such as birthdays or other big holiday events come around，parents often look for that special toy for their children.But there is a growing understanding that gifts of time and bonding，such as vacations and other experiences，make better and more lasting gifts for children.（当生日或其他重大节日活动等特殊场合来临时，父母通常会为孩子寻找这种特殊的玩具。但人们越来越认识到，时间和感情的礼物，如假期和其他经历，会给孩子带来更好、更持久的礼物。）可知本文主要讲述了在重大节日时，给孩子时间和感情的礼物，会给孩子们带来更好、更持久的礼物。所以"B.Vacations Make Better Gifts假期是更好的礼物"为最佳标题。故选B。
36、答案：①-⑤FDGCE
解析：①F.细节理解题。根据上文"A food critic is a writer who specializes in writing criticisms of food. Like theater and movie critics， food critics are supposed to provide thoughtful， well-informed， and objective information to the public so that members of the public can make decisions about where to spend their money.（食物评论家是专门写食物评论的作家。就像戏剧和电影评论家一样，美食评论家应该为公众提供深思熟虑的、见多识广的和客观的信息，以便公众可以决定他们的钱花在哪里）"以及后文"However some may also engage in more general food writing.（然而，有些人可能会从事更一般的食物写作）"可知 ，上文提到了食物评论家这种职业的含义和工作内容，后文则说了有些人会从事的写作内容，可推测本句是在说明食物评论家主要创作的写作类型。故F选项食物评论家主要写评价餐馆的文章，从快餐店到高档餐厅"符合语境，故选F.
②D.推理判断题。根据上文"Becoming a food critic takes time. Many food critics pursue professional experiences in the world of food， attending culinary schools， working in restaurants， participating in farming， and so forth.（成为一名美食评论家需要时间。许多美食评论家追求在食物世界的专业经验，参加烹饪学校，在餐馆工作，参与农业，等等）"可知，上文提到了美食评论家会从事与食品相关的各种行业，故本句与上文构成因果关系，指出美食评论家从事与食品相关的各种行业的结果是：可以了解食品工业的各个方面。D选项中They指代上文food critics。故D选项"因此，他们可以了解食品工业的各个方面"符合语境，故选D。
③G.归纳总结题。根据后文"Food critics may move between publishers over the course of their careers， or start working for the food section of a paper and working up to a position as a food critic. A handful of critics become well known and well respected， with most primarily being known only in the area they serve.在他们的职业生涯中，美食评论家可能会在出版商之间转行，或者开始在报纸的美食版块工作，最终成为一名美食评论家。少数评论家成为知名人士和受人尊敬的人，他们大多只在他们服务的领域内为人所知）"可知，本段主要叙述的是美食评论家开始创作文章的过程， G选项中newspapers对应后文中a paper。故G选项"一旦一个美食评论家获得了经验，他或她可以开始为杂志和报纸写文章"符合语境，故选G。
④C.推理判断题。根据上文"Professional integrity is very important for food critics. Many make reservations and visit restaurants anonymously， so that they get an idea of how a restaurant serves ordinary customers. They also make repeat visits so that they can make fair and balanced assessments of a restaurant and its offerings.（职业操守对美食评论家来说非常重要。许多人匿名预订和访问餐馆， 这样他们就能了解餐馆是如何服务普通顾客的。他们还会反复光顾，以便对一家餐厅及其提供的服务做出公平、 平衡的评价）"以及后文"Implications of favoritism or bribery can ruin the reputation of a food critic. （偏袒或贿赂的暗示会毁掉美食评论家的声誉）"可知，本段主要论述的是美食评论家的职业操守问题，且后文提到了接受贿赂会毁掉美食评论家的声誉，即强调不要接受餐厅老板的送礼。故C选项避免餐馆老板送礼也很重要"符合语境，故选C。
⑤E.推理判断题。根据上文"This is what food critics are like. They describe and evaluate the food， providing opinions on its quality.（这就是美食评论家。他们描述和评价食物，对其质量提供意见）"以及后文"These can be used as a reference for readers to make decisions.这些可以作为读者做决定的参考）可知，上文提到了美食评论家描述和评价食物，后文提到为读者做参考，可推测本句承接上文说明美食评论家在考虑了餐饮体验后，会得出评级，来为读者做参考。故E选项"在考虑餐饮体验的所有方面后，他们产生了评级"符合语境，故选E.

68、答案：
With the life of senior high school approaching to an end, I have many flooding into my mind. I can still remember how I was to get up early in order to get to school on time. “If I had studied much before, I would have gone to better university,” I said to myself. However, I later realized how much I loved a school.
The campus is beautiful. The Xinghu Lake, lies at the side of a small hill, impresses me most. Surrounded green trees, I can admire various fishes. I often wander around the charming lake and see myself in its clean water. in such attractive scenery, I get all the pressures released. The kind teachers and easy-going classmates also warm my heart and cheer me up when I am in low spirits.
Every time I recall my unforgettable moments, I smile. We’ve all over these three years.
解析：1.考查名词的数。句意：随着高中生活的临近，我的脑海中充斥着许多记忆。代词many修饰名词的复数形式。故将memory改为memories。
2.考查形容词。句意：我还记得为了按时上学，我是多么不情愿地早起。be unwilling to do sth.为固定短语，意为“不情愿做某事”。故将unwillingly改为unwilling。
3.考查形容词比较级。句意：“如果我以前好好学习，我会上一所更好的大学，”我对自己说。much修饰形容词比较级。故将hard改为harder。
4.考查冠词。句意：然而，后来我意识到我是多么热爱这所学校。本处的名词school特指上文提到的我所在的高中，应用定冠词the表示特指。故将a改为the。
5.考查定语从句。句意：校园很美。星湖坐落在一座小山的边上，给我印象最深。非限制性定语从句中缺主语，指代先行词The Xinghu Lake，应用关系代词which引导从句。故将where改为which。
6.考查介词。句意：被绿树环绕，我可以欣赏各种各样的鱼。can admire为谓语动词，动词surround作状语，应用非谓语动词形式，be surrounded by为固定短语，意为“被……环绕”，作非谓语动词时应去掉be，构成过去分词短语。故green前加by/with。
7.考查非谓语动词。句意：我经常在迷人的湖面上漫步，看到自己在清澈的水中倒影。结合句意“我看见自己被倒映在水中”，应用过去分词作宾语补足语，构成固定短语see sth. done，意为“看见某事被做”。故将reflecting改为reflected。
8.考查非谓语动词。句意：走在如此迷人的风景中，我释放了所有的压力。get为谓语动词，动词walk应用非谓语动词作状语，walk和逻辑主语I之间为主谓关系，应用现在分词作状语。故将Walked改为Walking。
9.考查状语从句。句意：每当我回忆起难忘的时刻，我都会微笑。本句有两组时间状语从句连词，结合句意“每次”应用every time引导状语从句。故删掉every time后的when。
10.考查动词时态。句意：在这三年里，我们都成长了。根据时间状语over these three years可知，本句用现在完成时，现在完成时中应用动词的过去分词形式。故将grew改为grown。
69、答案：
Dear Sir or Madam,
I’m writing to express my dissatisfaction about the service of Morning Star Travel Agency, with which I participated in a three-day trip to Henan during the May Day holiday.
The reason why I want to express my complaint about it is that there is a big difference between their ads and actions. First and foremost, as they say, the traffic they provide is a large air-conditioned bus, but what we actually rode was a shabby bus without any air-conditioning. Furthermore, they served us lunch tasting terrible and even with sand. What was more annoying was that we couldn’t enjoy any kind of shower in cold water. Most importantly, the guides led us to several expensive souvenir shops, which wasted us so much time that two scenery spots were left unseen in the end.
I sincerely hope that something can be done to prevent such things happening again. I would appreciate it if you can take effective measures as soon as possible.
Yours sincerely,
Alan
