Maya Lin, designer and sculptor, has created some of the most iconic works and spaces with the belief that art can address important issues. Her latest projects are no different, from museums to sculptures for Presidential centers.
Lin, 62, grew up in Ohio, the daughter of college professors who were Chinese immigrants. As a 21-year-old student at Yale University, she gained national fame when her entry won a design competition for the new Vietnam Veterans Memorial in Washington, DC. Her winning design — two black granite (花岗岩) walls carved with the names of US service members who died in the Vietnam War (1954-1975) or remain missing — is considered one of the most influential in modern architecture.
Lin went on to design the 1989 Civil Rights Memorial in Montgomery, Alabama, and dozens of other projects globally, all with social and environmental justice in mind. She told The Wall Street Journal she uses facts in her art. She said, “I am going to present you with what the story is, but I am not going to draw the conclusion for you.” Currently underway is Lin’s plan for the new Museum of Chinese in America in New York City. Lin said she wants it to be a celebration of Chinese American stories and contributions to the country.
Lin is also designing a sculpture to honor former President Barack Obama’s mother, who died in 1995, at the Obama Presidential Center in Illinois. When Obama awarded Lin the Presidential Medal of Freedom in 2016, he called her work “physical acts of poetry, each reminding us that the most important element in art or architecture is human emotion.”
4. What is Maya Lin’ principle to make her creation?
A. Art is to lead to reputation. B. Art is a physical act of poetry.
C. Art can be a way to address affairs. D. Art is to create something distinguished.
5. What is expressed in her work for the Vietnam Veterans Memorial?
A. The influence of the Vietnam War on America.
B. US soldiers’ sacrifice in the Vietnam War.
C. The bloody and cruel scenes of the Vietnam War.
D. Vietnamese soldiers’ fearless fight in the Vietnam War.
6. Where will the sculpture of Barack Obama’s mother be housed?
A. Vietnam Veterans Memorial in Washington, DC.
B. Civil Rights Memorial in Montgomery, Alabama.
C. Obama Presidential Center in Illinois.
D. Museum of Chinese in America in New York City.
7. Which of the following best suits the topic of the passage?
A. Stirring up emotions in art B. Designing with talents
C. Becoming a great Chinese immigrant D. Creating the most influential architecture

Making and keeping deep, meaningful friendships as an adult is hard, especially for men. Less than half of men report being satisfied with their friendships, and only about 1 in 5 said they had received emotional support from a friend in the last week, compared with 4 in 10 women, according to a 2021 survey from the Survey Center on American Life.
Why is it so hard? When Dr. Frank Sileo, a psychologist based in Ridgewood, New Jersey, first began conducting research on male friendships in 1995, many participants assumed his survey was about homosexuality (同性恋). Such opinions are inaccurate, but showed some of what maybe holding some men back from deep friendships, Sileo said.
Besides, boys receive messages that growing up and “manning up” mean hiding their soft side - a mindset that neuroscience, social science and developmental psychology all show is harmful to them. The drive to toughen up and never show vulnerability (脆弱) that restricts men from friendships can lead them to loneliness, violence and anger. “We consider relationships as feminine.” Sileo said. “If that’s a feminine (女性特有的) thing, it becomes a weakness or inability if men admit to needing friendships. ”
Thus, men seeking closeness might turn to those they see as better at building relationships and feel comfortable exploring their vulnerability with: the women in their lives and their romantic partners, according to Sileo’s research. It may seem like a good solution, but putting everything on a romantic partner can hurt a relationship, whether it is going to a female partner exclusively for emotional support or depending on her to cultivate friendships and get-together for holidays and weekends. It is necessary to have various people to go to for support for different perspectives. “Men need to know it’s not just a woman thing.” she said. “They need to know that men can do it, too. ”
We live in a culture that conflicts with our nature. If we raise children to go against their nature, we shouldn’t be surprised if some of those children grow up to struggle. Research has shown expression of negative emotions improved men’s emotional well-being, increased feelings of being understood and resulted in less reported loneliness. So just as many men make a great effort to eat right, exercise, succeed in their careers and raise children, men should prioritize developing friendships as well.
8. Why does the author mention some numbers in the first paragraph?
A. To inform a fact. B. To introduce the topic.
C. To make a comparison. D. To support an opinion.
9. What do we know about Dr. Frank Sileo’s research in 1995?
A. It studies men’s friendships.
B. It studies men’s health.
C. It studies male homosexuality.
D. It studies reasons why men lack deep friendships.
10. Which one may be the result if a man lacks friendship?
A. A man may turn to a woman. B. A man may get used to it.
C. A man may become feminine. D. A man may focus more on his career.
11. Which column does this passage most probably belong to?
A. Science. B. Sports. C. Entertainment. D. Health.
【答案】8. D 9. A 10. A 11. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一项新的研究发现，该研究表明成年人很难建立并保持深厚而有意义的友谊，尤其是对男人来说更难，并分析了该现象产生的原因。
【8题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第一段所提到的数据“Less than half of men report being satisfied with their friendships, and only about 1 in 5 said they had received emotional support from a friend in the last week, compared with 4 in 10 women, according to a 2021 survey from the Survey Center on American Life.(美国生活调查中心2021年的一项调查显示，不到一半的男性对自己的友谊感到满意，只有约五分之一的人表示，他们在上周得到了朋友的情感支持，而女性中有十分之四)”可推知，第一段中通过数字来支持前一句“Making and keeping deep, meaningful friendships as an adult is hard, especially for men.(作为一个成年人，建立并保持深厚而有意义的友谊是很难的，尤其是对男人来说)”这一观点。故选D。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第二段“When Dr. Frank Sileo, a psychologist based in Ridgewood, New Jersey, first began conducting research on male friendships in 1995, many participants assumed his survey was about homosexuality (同性恋).(1995年，当新泽西州里奇伍德的心理学家Frank Sileo博士首次开始对男性友谊进行研究时，许多参与者都认为他的调查是关于同性恋的)”可知，Frank Sileo博士在1995年研究的是男人之间的友谊。故选A。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第四段“Thus, men seeking closeness might turn to those they see as better at building relationships and feel comfortable exploring their vulnerability with: the women in their lives and their romantic partners, according to Sileo’s research.(因此，根据Sileo的研究，寻求亲密关系的男性可能会转向那些他们认为更善于建立关系、更愿意探索自己弱点的人：他们生活中的女性和浪漫伴侣)”可知，男士缺乏友谊的时候，他们会转向生活中的女性或者是他们的浪漫伴侣。故选A。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“Research has shown expression of negative emotions improved men’s emotional well-being, increased feelings of being understood and resulted in less reported loneliness. So just as many men make a great effort to eat right, exercise, succeed in their careers and raise children, men should prioritize developing friendships as well.(研究表明，消极情绪的表达改善了男性的情绪健康，增加了被理解的感觉，减少了孤独感。因此，就像许多男性在健康饮食、锻炼身体、事业有成和抚养孩子方面付出巨大努力一样，男性也应该优先考虑发展友谊)”以及全文内容可知，本文主要讲述的是在生活中友谊对于成年男性来说是很重要的，他们可以向朋友倾诉负面情绪，这能提高他们的情绪幸福感，增加被理解的感觉，减少孤独感。由此推知，文章可能选自于健康栏目。故选D。
D
While DNA from animal bones or teeth can cast light on an individual species, environmental DNA enabled scientists to build a picture of a whole ecosystem.
A core of ice age sediment (沉积物) from northern Greenland has yielded the world’s oldest sequences of DNA. The 2 million-year-old DNA samples revealed the now largely lifeless polar region was once home to rich plant and animal life — including elephant-like mammals known as mastodons (乳齿象), reindeer, hares, lemmings, geese, birch trees and poplars, according to new research published in the journal Nature on Wednesday.
The finding is the work of scientists in Denmark who were able to detect and restore environmental DNA — genetic material drop into the environment by all living organisms — in tiny amounts of sediment taken from the Copenhagen Formation, in the mouth of a strait in the Arctic Ocean in Greenland’s northernmost point, during a 2006 expedition.
They then compared the DNA pieces with libraries of DNA collected from both extinct and living animals, plants and microorganisms. The genetic material revealed dozens of other plants and creatures that had not been previously detected at the site based on what’s known from fossils and pollen records.
“The first thing that blew our mind when we’re looking at this data is obviously this mastodon and the presence of it that far north, which is quite far north of what we knew as its natural range,” said study co-author Mikkel Pedersen.
The mix of temperate (温带) and Arctic trees and animals suggested a previously unknown type of ecosystem that has no modern equivalent — one that could act as a genetic road map for how different species might adapt to a warmer climate, the researchers found.
Love Dalen, a professor at the Centre for Palaeogenetics at Stockholm University, said the finding “pushed the envelope” for the field of ancient DNA. “Also, the findings that several temperate species (such as relatives of spruce and mastodon) lived at such high latitudes are exceptionally interesting,” he added.
Further study of environmental DNA from this time period could help scientists understand how various organisms might adapt to climate change. “It’s a climate that we expect to face on Earth due to global warming and it gives us some idea of how nature will respond to increasing temperatures,” he explained.
12. What can we know about environmental DNA from the passage?
A. It makes it easier to understand individual species.
B. It is a collection of DNA from all kinds of living things.
C. It includes DNA of mammals living 2 million years ago.
D. It was first discovered in sediment from northern Greenland.
13. How did the scientists identify the result of their research?
A. By looking at the data of mastodon.
B. By detecting DNA samples at the site.
C. By analyzing fossils and pollen records.
D. By comparing the newly-found DNA with existing ones.
14. What do the underlined words mean in the 7th paragraph?
A. broke the limit B. laid a foundation
C. raised a new question D. attracted wide attention
15. Which is the best title for the passage?
A. Northern Greenland faces species extinction
B. Oldest DNA reveals a solution to global warming
C. Northern Greenland faces increasing temperatures
D. Oldest DNA reveals a 2 million-year-old ecosystem
【答案】12. B 13. D 14. A 15. D
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了《自然》杂志上的一项新研究表明，世界上最古老的DNA序列显示了如今没有生命的极地地区在200万年前曾经是丰富的植物和动物的家园。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中“The finding is the work of scientists in Denmark who were able to detect and restore environmental DNA — genetic material drop into the environment by all living organisms(这项发现是丹麦科学家的工作，他们能够检测和恢复环境DNA——遗传物质滴入环境中的所有生物体)”可知，环境DNA是各种生物DNA的集合。故选B。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段中“They then compared the DNA pieces with libraries of DNA collected from both extinct and living animals, plants and microorganisms.(然后，他们将这些 DNA片段与从已经灭绝和活着的动物、植物和微生物中收集的DNA文库进行比较)”可知，科学家们通过比较新发现的DNA和现有的DNA来确定他们的研究结果的，故选D。
【14题详解】
词句猜测题。根据上文“The mix of temperate (温带) and Arctic trees and animals suggested a previously unknown type of ecosystem that has no modern equivalent — one that could act as a genetic road map for how different species might adapt to a warmer climate, the researchers found.(研究人员发现，温带和北极的树木和动物的混合表明了一种以前未知的生态系统类型，这种生态系统没有现代的对应物——它可以作为不同物种如何适应更温暖气候的基因路线图)”可知，研究人员发现了一种以前未知的生态系统类型，结合划线短语所在句子“Love Dalen, a professor at the Centre for Palaeogenetics at Stockholm University, said the finding “pushed the envelope” for the field of ancient DNA.(斯德哥尔摩大学古遗传学中心的拉夫·达伦教授说，这一发现“pushed the envelope”古DNA领域)”可知，发现一种以前未知的生态系统类型这是一个突破，即对古DNA领域来说，是一种突破。由此可知，划线短语“pushed the envelope”与A项“broke the limit(突破极限)”意思一样，故选A。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第二段“A core of ice age sediment (沉积物) from northern Greenland has yielded the world’s oldest sequences of DNA. The 2 million-year-old DNA samples revealed the now largely lifeless polar region was once home to rich plant and animal life - including elephant-like mammals known as mastodons (乳齿象), reindeer, hares, lemmings, geese, birch trees and poplars, according to new research published in the journal Nature on Wednesday.(来自格陵兰岛北部的冰河时期沉积物的核心已经产生了世界上最古老的DNA序列。周三发表在《自然》杂志上的一项新研究表明，200万年前的DNA样本显示，如今基本上没有生命的极地地区曾经是丰富的植物和动物的家园，包括像大象一样的哺乳动物，如乳齿象、驯鹿、野兔、旅鼠、鹅、桦树和白杨。)”可知，文章主要讲述了《自然》杂志上的一项新研究表明，世界上最古老的DNA序列显示了如今没有生命的极地地区在200万年前曾经是丰富的植物和动物的家园。由此可知，D项“最古老的DNA揭示了一个有两百万年历史的生态系统”适合作文章标题，故选D。

Wasted-time worry
The idea that time is our most precious resource can bring with it a sense of time-pressure. We are always told “Time is money and time is running out”, so we must manage it well. We take time-management courses, download the latest productivity app and divide our day into blocks, so our time is never wasted.
______16______ . It tells us we should be doing more with our time or doing something else. We can spend an afternoon regretting for the time we wasted that morning, spoiling hours that would otherwise have been available to us. Sometimes it’s not just the hours we worry about wasting, ______17______ —the countless minutes spent on tiny chores, answering emails, replying to texts, waiting for other people. Often, when we worry about wasting time, we are comparing ourselves to how productive we assume other people are. It makes us feel that everyone is using their time well except ourselves.
We need to shift away from trying to maximize our time and reduce our worry about wasting it. We don’t have to view every moment we don’t spend the way we expected to as a waste. There may be value in those moments too. ______18______ . In a society that emphasizes the productive use of time, we can easily forget that time we enjoyed wasting is not wasted time.
Then how much should we be working? Researchers say on most days, three to four hours of high-quality, focused mental work is about our maximum. ______19______ .
We often encounter empty time, throwing us into boredom, panic or anxiety, or add to our wasted-time worry. ______20______ . For example, we can become more comfortable with empty moments rather than rushing to make the best of every second. We can allow us to pause and think. We can see our commuting time as a chance to let our mind wander rather than checking social media.
A. Working beyond that can be a waste
B. Working to maximum is the secret to success
C. but the scraps of time that get lost in between
D. We can simply appreciate the part they played in our life
E. However, we need some hours in the day to waste as we wish
F. We can simply set aside more moments for the work of the day
G. Yet in our crazy attempts to account for every hour, we fall into wasted-time worry
【答案】16. G 17. C 18. D 19. A 20. E
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了人在生活中拥有浪费时间的担忧，但是作者认为这是不必要的。
【16题详解】
根据后文的“It tells us we should be doing more with our time or doing something else.(它告诉我们，我们应该用我们的时间做更多的事情或做其他事情。)”可知，此处强调的是我们总是被告知要充分利用时间，利用时间去做更多的事情或者其他的事情，故我们深深陷入一种时间焦虑或者时间担忧的情绪中。G选项“Yet in our crazy attempts to account for every hour, we fall into wasted-time worry.(然而，在我们疯狂地试图解释每一个小时的时候，我们陷入了浪费时间的担忧中。)”与下文的It呼应，符合语境。故选G。
【17题详解】
根据前文的“Sometimes it’s not just the hours we worry about wasting,(有时候，我们担心浪费的不仅仅是时间，)”可知，此处强调的是有时候，我们担心浪费的不仅仅是时间，后文应该与此构成转折关系，即强调我们还有其他的担心。C选项“but the scraps of time that get lost in between(但是在这中间丢失的零碎时间)”与前文构成转折关系，并指出其他的担忧是在一些琐碎的小事中丢失零碎时间，引出下文“the countless minutes spent on tiny chores, answering emails, replying to texts, waiting for other people(无数分钟花在琐碎的琐事上，回复邮件，回复短信，等待他人)”举例讲在一些琐碎的小事中丢失零碎时间。故选C。
【18题详解】
根据前文的“We don’t have to view every moment we don’t spend the way we expected to as a waste. There may be value in those moments too.(我们不必把没有按预期方式度过的每一刻都视为浪费。这些时刻也可能有价值。)”可知，此处强调我们没有必要把没有按预期方式度过的每一刻都视为浪费，后文应该强调我们可以承认被浪费时间的价值。D选项“We can simply appreciate the part they played in our life.(我们可以简单地欣赏它们在我们生命中所扮演的角色。)”承接上文，承认被浪费时间在生命中的价值。故选D。
【19题详解】
根据前文“Researchers say on most days, three to four hours of high-quality, focused mental work is about our maximum. (研究人员表示，在大多数日子里，三到四个小时的高质量、专注的脑力劳动是我们的极限。)”指出，三到四个小时的高质量、专注的脑力劳动是我们的极限。后文对此极限进行探讨。A选项“Working beyond that can be a waste.(超出这个范围工作可能是一种浪费。)”中的that指代前文的three to four hours of high-quality。故选A。
【20题详解】
根据后文“For example, we can become more comfortable with empty moments rather than rushing to make the best of every second. (例如，我们可以更适应空虚时刻，而不是急于充分利用每一秒。)”可知，此处举例说明我们可以在某些时候虚度光阴，而不是急于充分利用每一秒。E选项“However, we need some hours in the day to waste as we wish。(然而，我们一天中需要一些时间来随心所欲地浪费。)”强调我们一天中需要一些时间来随心所欲地浪费，与下文呼应。故选E。

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。
We found out that Jenny was hearing impaired, when she was four and a half years old. Several surgeries and speech classes later, when she was seven, we found out that Jenny had Rheumatoid Arthritis (关节炎) . She could not put pressure on the heels of her feet, so she walked on tiptoe, and when the pain became unbearable, I carried her. All through grade school, and on into high school, Jenny suffered, yet never complained. She took her medicine, and I would often wrap her feet in steaming towels and hold her until the pain eased. But as soon as she could withstand (顶住) the pain, Jenny immediately carried on as though she were pain free.
She wore a smile on her face, a song on her lips, and a love and acceptance of others, which was simply amazing. I don’t remember her ever voicing self-pity. She ran when she could run. She played when she could play. She danced when she could dance. And when she could do none of these things, she took her medicine and she waited until she could.
Jenny, a beautiful blonde, with warm brown eyes, was never a cheerleader. She never competed in a sport. Jenny continued to have one surgery after another on her ears. Her hearing improved to 60%, and she taught herself to read lips. She carried a pillow to school, all through high school. She was totally mainstreamed, popular and funny, watching every football game, cheering the team on, and carrying her pillow everywhere she went, so that she could ease the pain when she sat down.
Then came her senior year. She would be considered for scholarships. However, school activities, especially sports, could often mean the difference between receiving an award or losing out, so Jenny came to a decision. Although she couldn’t compete as a football player, she could provide supporting services for the high school football team. Jenny began to beg the football coach. She pleaded (恳求). She promised.
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。
Para 1
Finally the coach gave in, appointing Jenny as the manager of the team.

Para 2
At the end of this season, the coach was asked why the team was winning all the games this year.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】 Finally the coach gave in, appointing Jenny as the manager of the team. Before every game, Jenny prepared water for her teammates as well as bandaged knees and ankles. In addition, she gave pep talks, cheering the team on. She spared no effort to be continually at their beck and call. Often Jenny could be seen carrying a bucket of water in each hand, nearly dragging them, along with her pillow tucked under her arm. Fortunately, with Jenny’s support, it turned out to be one of the best years for the high school football team.
At the end of this season, the coach was asked why the team was winning all their games this year. He owed it to Jenny. “Well, when you’ve been knocked down, and you can’t seem to move, you look up and see Jenny, limping across the field, dragging her buckets and carrying her pillow. It makes anything the rest of us may suffer seem pretty insignificant.”
【解析】
【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了女孩Jenny虽然从小被诊断有听力障碍并患有类风湿性关节炎，但是却对生活充满了热爱，积极乐观地争取奖学金。她的这种生活态度感染了身边的每一个人。
【详解】1.段落续写：
①由第一段首句内容“最后教练让步了，任命Jenny为球队经理。”以及第二段首句内容“在这个赛季结束时，有人问教练为什么球队今年赢了所有的比赛。”可知，第一段可描写Jenny所在球队赢得了所有的比赛
②由第二段首句内容“在这个赛季结束时，有人问教练为什么球队今年赢了所有的比赛。”可知，第二段可描写Jenny对自己所在球队的影响。
2.续写线索：教练让Jenny担任球队经理——Jenny服务球队——所在球队赢得了所有比赛——教练认为这都是Jenny的功劳
3.词汇激活

Maya Lin, designer and sculptor, has created some of the most iconic works and spaces with the belief that art can address important issues. Her latest projects are no different, from museums to sculptures for Presidential centers.
Lin, 62, grew up in Ohio, the daughter of college professors who were Chinese immigrants. As a 21-year-old student at Yale University, she gained national fame when her entry won a design competition for the new Vietnam Veterans Memorial in Washington, DC. Her winning design — two black granite (花岗岩) walls carved with the names of US service members who died in the Vietnam War (1954-1975) or remain missing — is considered one of the most influential in modern architecture.
Lin went on to design the 1989 Civil Rights Memorial in Montgomery, Alabama, and dozens of other projects globally, all with social and environmental justice in mind. She told The Wall Street Journal she uses facts in her art. She said, “I am going to present you with what the story is, but I am not going to draw the conclusion for you.” Currently underway is Lin’s plan for the new Museum of Chinese in America in New York City. Lin said she wants it to be a celebration of Chinese American stories and contributions to the country.
Lin is also designing a sculpture to honor former President Barack Obama’s mother, who died in 1995, at the Obama Presidential Center in Illinois. When Obama awarded Lin the Presidential Medal of Freedom in 2016, he called her work “physical acts of poetry, each reminding us that the most important element in art or architecture is human emotion.”
4. What is Maya Lin’ principle to make her creation?
A. Art is to lead to reputation. B. Art is a physical act of poetry.
C. Art can be a way to address affairs. D. Art is to create something distinguished.
5. What is expressed in her work for the Vietnam Veterans Memorial?
A. The influence of the Vietnam War on America.
B. US soldiers’ sacrifice in the Vietnam War.
C. The bloody and cruel scenes of the Vietnam War.
D. Vietnamese soldiers’ fearless fight in the Vietnam War.
6. Where will the sculpture of Barack Obama’s mother be housed?
A. Vietnam Veterans Memorial in Washington, DC.

Making and keeping deep, meaningful friendships as an adult is hard, especially for men. Less than half of men report being satisfied with their friendships, and only about 1 in 5 said they had received emotional support from a friend in the last week, compared with 4 in 10 women, according to a 2021 survey from the Survey Center on American Life.
Why is it so hard? When Dr. Frank Sileo, a psychologist based in Ridgewood, New Jersey, first began conducting research on male friendships in 1995, many participants assumed his survey was about homosexuality (同性恋). Such opinions are inaccurate, but showed some of what maybe holding some men back from deep friendships, Sileo said.
Besides, boys receive messages that growing up and “manning up” mean hiding their soft side - a mindset that neuroscience, social science and developmental psychology all show is harmful to them. The drive to toughen up and never show vulnerability (脆弱) that restricts men from friendships can lead them to loneliness, violence and anger. “We consider relationships as feminine.” Sileo said. “If that’s a feminine (女性特有的) thing, it becomes a weakness or inability if men admit to needing friendships. ”
Thus, men seeking closeness might turn to those they see as better at building relationships and feel comfortable exploring their vulnerability with: the women in their lives and their romantic partners, according to Sileo’s research. It may seem like a good solution, but putting everything on a romantic partner can hurt a relationship, whether it is going to a female partner exclusively for emotional support or depending on her to cultivate friendships and get-together for holidays and weekends. It is necessary to have various people to go to for support for different perspectives. “Men need to know it’s not just a woman thing.” she said. “They need to know that men can do it, too. ”
We live in a culture that conflicts with our nature. If we raise children to go against their nature, we shouldn’t be surprised if some of those children grow up to struggle. Research has shown expression of negative emotions improved men’s emotional well-being, increased feelings of being understood and resulted in less reported loneliness. So just as many men make a great effort to eat right, exercise, succeed in their careers and raise children, men should prioritize developing friendships as well.
8. Why does the author mention some numbers in the first paragraph?
A. To inform a fact. B. To introduce the topic.
C. To make a comparison. D. To support an opinion.
9. What do we know about Dr. Frank Sileo’s research in 1995?
A. It studies men’s friendships.
B. It studies men’s health.
C. It studies male homosexuality.
D. It studies reasons why men lack deep friendships.
10. Which one may be the result if a man lacks friendship?
A. A man may turn to a woman. B. A man may get used to it.
C. A man may become feminine. D. A man may focus more on his career.
11. Which column does this passage most probably belong to?

【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一项新的研究发现，该研究表明成年人很难建立并保持深厚而有意义的友谊，尤其是对男人来说更难，并分析了该现象产生的原因。
【8题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第一段所提到的数据“Less than half of men report being satisfied with their friendships, and only about 1 in 5 said they had received emotional support from a friend in the last week, compared with 4 in 10 women, according to a 2021 survey from the Survey Center on American Life.(美国生活调查中心2021年的一项调查显示，不到一半的男性对自己的友谊感到满意，只有约五分之一的人表示，他们在上周得到了朋友的情感支持，而女性中有十分之四)”可推知，第一段中通过数字来支持前一句“Making and keeping deep, meaningful friendships as an adult is hard, especially for men.(作为一个成年人，建立并保持深厚而有意义的友谊是很难的，尤其是对男人来说)”这一观点。故选D。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第二段“When Dr. Frank Sileo, a psychologist based in Ridgewood, New Jersey, first began conducting research on male friendships in 1995, many participants assumed his survey was about homosexuality (同性恋).(1995年，当新泽西州里奇伍德的心理学家Frank Sileo博士首次开始对男性友谊进行研究时，许多参与者都认为他的调查是关于同性恋的)”可知，Frank Sileo博士在1995年研究的是男人之间的友谊。故选A。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第四段“Thus, men seeking closeness might turn to those they see as better at building relationships and feel comfortable exploring their vulnerability with: the women in their lives and their romantic partners, according to Sileo’s research.(因此，根据Sileo的研究，寻求亲密关系的男性可能会转向那些他们认为更善于建立关系、更愿意探索自己弱点的人：他们生活中的女性和浪漫伴侣)”可知，男士缺乏友谊的时候，他们会转向生活中的女性或者是他们的浪漫伴侣。故选A。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“Research has shown expression of negative emotions improved men’s emotional well-being, increased feelings of being understood and resulted in less reported loneliness. So just as many men make a great effort to eat right, exercise, succeed in their careers and raise children, men should prioritize developing friendships as well.(研究表明，消极情绪的表达改善了男性的情绪健康，增加了被理解的感觉，减少了孤独感。因此，就像许多男性在健康饮食、锻炼身体、事业有成和抚养孩子方面付出巨大努力一样，男性也应该优先考虑发展友谊)”以及全文内容可知，本文主要讲述的是在生活中友谊对于成年男性来说是很重要的，他们可以向朋友倾诉负面情绪，这能提高他们的情绪幸福感，增加被理解的感觉，减少孤独感。由此推知，文章可能选自于健康栏目。故选D。

While DNA from animal bones or teeth can cast light on an individual species, environmental DNA enabled scientists to build a picture of a whole ecosystem.
A core of ice age sediment (沉积物) from northern Greenland has yielded the world’s oldest sequences of DNA. The 2 million-year-old DNA samples revealed the now largely lifeless polar region was once home to rich plant and animal life — including elephant-like mammals known as mastodons (乳齿象), reindeer, hares, lemmings, geese, birch trees and poplars, according to new research published in the journal Nature on Wednesday.
The finding is the work of scientists in Denmark who were able to detect and restore environmental DNA — genetic material drop into the environment by all living organisms — in tiny amounts of sediment taken from the Copenhagen Formation, in the mouth of a strait in the Arctic Ocean in Greenland’s northernmost point, during a 2006 expedition.
They then compared the DNA pieces with libraries of DNA collected from both extinct and living animals, plants and microorganisms. The genetic material revealed dozens of other plants and creatures that had not been previously detected at the site based on what’s known from fossils and pollen records.
“The first thing that blew our mind when we’re looking at this data is obviously this mastodon and the presence of it that far north, which is quite far north of what we knew as its natural range,” said study co-author Mikkel Pedersen.
The mix of temperate (温带) and Arctic trees and animals suggested a previously unknown type of ecosystem that has no modern equivalent — one that could act as a genetic road map for how different species might adapt to a warmer climate, the researchers found.
Love Dalen, a professor at the Centre for Palaeogenetics at Stockholm University, said the finding “pushed the envelope” for the field of ancient DNA. “Also, the findings that several temperate species (such as relatives of spruce and mastodon) lived at such high latitudes are exceptionally interesting,” he added.
Further study of environmental DNA from this time period could help scientists understand how various organisms might adapt to climate change. “It’s a climate that we expect to face on Earth due to global warming and it gives us some idea of how nature will respond to increasing temperatures,” he explained.
12. What can we know about environmental DNA from the passage?
A. It makes it easier to understand individual species.
B. It is a collection of DNA from all kinds of living things.
C. It includes DNA of mammals living 2 million years ago.
D. It was first discovered in sediment from northern Greenland.
13. How did the scientists identify the result of their research?
A. By looking at the data of mastodon.
B. By detecting DNA samples at the site.
C. By analyzing fossils and pollen records.
D. By comparing the newly-found DNA with existing ones.
14. What do the underlined words mean in the 7th paragraph?
A. broke the limit B. laid a foundation
C. raised a new question D. attracted wide attention
15. Which is the best title for the passage?
A. Northern Greenland faces species extinction
B. Oldest DNA reveals a solution to global warming
C. Northern Greenland faces increasing temperatures
D. Oldest DNA reveals a 2 million-year-old ecosystem
【答案】12. B 13. D 14. A 15. D

【14题详解】
词句猜测题。根据上文“The mix of temperate (温带) and Arctic trees and animals suggested a previously unknown type of ecosystem that has no modern equivalent — one that could act as a genetic road map for how different species might adapt to a warmer climate, the researchers found.(研究人员发现，温带和北极的树木和动物的混合表明了一种以前未知的生态系统类型，这种生态系统没有现代的对应物——它可以作为不同物种如何适应更温暖气候的基因路线图)”可知，研究人员发现了一种以前未知的生态系统类型，结合划线短语所在句子“Love Dalen, a professor at the Centre for Palaeogenetics at Stockholm University, said the finding “pushed the envelope” for the field of ancient DNA.(斯德哥尔摩大学古遗传学中心的拉夫·达伦教授说，这一发现“pushed the envelope”古DNA领域)”可知，发现一种以前未知的生态系统类型这是一个突破，即对古DNA领域来说，是一种突破。由此可知，划线短语“pushed the envelope”与A项“broke the limit(突破极限)”意思一样，故选A。

Wasted-time worry
The idea that time is our most precious resource can bring with it a sense of time-pressure. We are always told “Time is money and time is running out”, so we must manage it well. We take time-management courses, download the latest productivity app and divide our day into blocks, so our time is never wasted.
______16______ . It tells us we should be doing more with our time or doing something else. We can spend an afternoon regretting for the time we wasted that morning, spoiling hours that would otherwise have been available to us. Sometimes it’s not just the hours we worry about wasting, ______17______ —the countless minutes spent on tiny chores, answering emails, replying to texts, waiting for other people. Often, when we worry about wasting time, we are comparing ourselves to how productive we assume other people are. It makes us feel that everyone is using their time well except ourselves.
We need to shift away from trying to maximize our time and reduce our worry about wasting it. We don’t have to view every moment we don’t spend the way we expected to as a waste. There may be value in those moments too. ______18______ . In a society that emphasizes the productive use of time, we can easily forget that time we enjoyed wasting is not wasted time.
Then how much should we be working? Researchers say on most days, three to four hours of high-quality, focused mental work is about our maximum. ______19______ .
We often encounter empty time, throwing us into boredom, panic or anxiety, or add to our wasted-time worry. ______20______ . For example, we can become more comfortable with empty moments rather than rushing to make the best of every second. We can allow us to pause and think. We can see our commuting time as a chance to let our mind wander rather than checking social media.
A. Working beyond that can be a waste
B. Working to maximum is the secret to success
C. but the scraps of time that get lost in between
D. We can simply appreciate the part they played in our life
E. However, we need some hours in the day to waste as we wish
F. We can simply set aside more moments for the work of the day
G. Yet in our crazy attempts to account for every hour, we fall into wasted-time worry
【答案】16. G 17. C 18. D 19. A 20. E

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。
We found out that Jenny was hearing impaired, when she was four and a half years old. Several surgeries and speech classes later, when she was seven, we found out that Jenny had Rheumatoid Arthritis (关节炎) . She could not put pressure on the heels of her feet, so she walked on tiptoe, and when the pain became unbearable, I carried her. All through grade school, and on into high school, Jenny suffered, yet never complained. She took her medicine, and I would often wrap her feet in steaming towels and hold her until the pain eased. But as soon as she could withstand (顶住) the pain, Jenny immediately carried on as though she were pain free.
She wore a smile on her face, a song on her lips, and a love and acceptance of others, which was simply amazing. I don’t remember her ever voicing self-pity. She ran when she could run. She played when she could play. She danced when she could dance. And when she could do none of these things, she took her medicine and she waited until she could.
Jenny, a beautiful blonde, with warm brown eyes, was never a cheerleader. She never competed in a sport. Jenny continued to have one surgery after another on her ears. Her hearing improved to 60%, and she taught herself to read lips. She carried a pillow to school, all through high school. She was totally mainstreamed, popular and funny, watching every football game, cheering the team on, and carrying her pillow everywhere she went, so that she could ease the pain when she sat down.
Then came her senior year. She would be considered for scholarships. However, school activities, especially sports, could often mean the difference between receiving an award or losing out, so Jenny came to a decision. Although she couldn’t compete as a football player, she could provide supporting services for the high school football team. Jenny began to beg the football coach. She pleaded (恳求). She promised.
注意：
1. 续写词数应为150左右；

____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】 Finally the coach gave in, appointing Jenny as the manager of the team. Before every game, Jenny prepared water for her teammates as well as bandaged knees and ankles. In addition, she gave pep talks, cheering the team on. She spared no effort to be continually at their beck and call. Often Jenny could be seen carrying a bucket of water in each hand, nearly dragging them, along with her pillow tucked under her arm. Fortunately, with Jenny’s support, it turned out to be one of the best years for the high school football team.
At the end of this season, the coach was asked why the team was winning all their games this year. He owed it to Jenny. “Well, when you’ve been knocked down, and you can’t seem to move, you look up and see Jenny, limping across the field, dragging her buckets and carrying her pillow. It makes anything the rest of us may suffer seem pretty insignificant.”
【解析】
【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了女孩Jenny虽然从小被诊断有听力障碍并患有类风湿性关节炎，但是却对生活充满了热爱，积极乐观地争取奖学金。她的这种生活态度感染了身边的每一个人。
【详解】1.段落续写：

②由第二段首句内容“在这个赛季结束时，有人问教练为什么球队今年赢了所有的比赛。”可知，第二段可描写Jenny对自己所在球队的影响。
