2．（10分）Well，well，well.It looks like robots are now coming for our beloved furry friends.According to a new study，if not better，at providing therapeutic（治疗的），I can tell you that this is quite a bold claim.
Sure，robots may have some benefits over real dogs.They can work for longer hours and won't cause allergies（过敏）or pass on diseases.But can a robot give you that wet﹣nosed，slobber﹣filled experience that a real dog can？I think not.
Now，I'm not saying that robots don't have their place in therapy.In fact，I can see how an animal robot could be helpful in certain situations where a real dog might not be possible.But let's not go replacing all the good boys and girls with robots just yet.
As for the study，it's interesting to see that while the kids said they loved real﹣life dogs better，they actually spent more time interacting with the robot.I can only imagine that it was doing some pretty impressive tricks，to hold the kids' attention for that long.
In all seriousness，though，I do think it's important to consider the welfare of therapy dogs.Visiting hospitals can be stressful and tiring for them
So，while I may not be ready to trade in my furry friends for robots just yet，I am open to the idea of introducing animal robots into therapy programs.Who knows？Maybe one day we'll all have our own personal robot pets that can provide us with just as much love and companionship as the real thing.But until then

D.They are better at releasing patients' stress and tiredness.
3．（10分）The best ideas are often so smart，so simple and so clearly needed；it's strange to discover they don't already exist.So it is with Farm My School，regenerative market gardens farmed by and for local communities.

Volunteers have since begun beneficial planting throughout the school.Next steps include further discussions with local communities，employing a farmer，and bringing in a teacher to develop courses."We've seen this huge push towards seeing schools as regenerative spaces，and really seeing the school in a whole new light，"James says."For us，it's not only on the school to look after that farm anymore，which eventually makes it much more sustainable

5．（12.5分）What makes a work of architecture great？Most people would argue that aesthetics（美感）are the most important.（1） However，Roman architect Marcus Vitruvius Pollio believed that we should also consider durability and function when assessing a structure.The Rostonville Library in my city is a great example of Vitruvius's principles.
Constructed entirely of granite—a hard and tough stone，the library is durable.It can withstand environmental pollution.For example，it is resistant to acid rain.Moreover（2） It uses solar energy for heating and a rooftop garden for cooling.
（3） Providing free access to print and digital information，it conveys a feeling of openness and accessibility.Furthermore，the entire library is on one level，large windows let in plenty of natural light，so it's easy to see and get to each department within the library.
Finally，the library is beautiful，with aesthetically pleasing details both inside and out.The large windows are copper﹣framed（铜框的），which reaches down the sides of the building，adds to the aesthetics of the building.（4）
Durability，functionality and beauty make the Rostonville Library a great structure.Architects who follow Vitruvius's principles help to make the city more pleasant to live in.（5）
A.The library is also sustainable.
B.It is true that beauty is critical.
C.This is not the only concern of the architects.
D.The library was designed with functionality in mind.
E.It softens the lines of the structure and helps it to fit into its natural surroundings.
F.Plus，the library was built on the edge of the city park，surrounded by native plants.
G.Buildings that fulfill these criteria offer both peace of mind and beauty for their users.

【点评】一、速读全文，了解大意知主题。
阅读能力一般指阅读速度和理解能力两个方面。阅读速度是阅读最基本的能力，考生必须在十分有限的时间内运用略读、扫读、跳读等技巧快速阅读，搜寻关键词、主题句，捕捉时空、顺序、情节、人物、观点，并且理清文章脉络，把握语篇实质。
二、看题干，带着问题读文章。
首先要掌握问题的类型，客观信息题可以从文章中直接找到答案；而主观判断题考查的是对文章的感情基调等，这类题必须经过对作者的态度、意图以及对整篇文章进行深一层的推理等。其次，了解试题题干以及各个选项所包含的信息，然后有针对性地对文章进行扫读，对有关信息进行快速定位。此法加强了阅读的针对性，提高了做题的准确率。
三、逻辑推理，做好深层理解题。
在实际阅读中，有时作者并未把意图说出来，阅读者要根据字面意思，通过语篇逻辑关系，研究细节的暗示，推敲作者的态度，理解文章的寓义。要求读者对文字的表面信息进行分析、挖掘和逻辑推理，不能就事论事，以偏概全。推理题在提问中常用的词有：infer，imply，suggest，indicate等。
四、猜词悟义，扫除阅读拦路虎。
猜词是应用英语的重要能力。它不但需要准确无误地理解上下文，而且要有较大的泛读量，掌握或认识较多的课外词汇。我们要学会"顺藤摸瓜"，通过构词，语法，定义，同位，对比，因果，常识，上下文等线索确定词义。

2．（10分）Well，well，well.It looks like robots are now coming for our beloved furry friends.According to a new study，if not better，at providing therapeutic（治疗的），I can tell you that this is quite a bold claim.
Sure，robots may have some benefits over real dogs.They can work for longer hours and won't cause allergies（过敏）or pass on diseases.But can a robot give you that wet﹣nosed，slobber﹣filled experience that a real dog can？I think not.
Now，I'm not saying that robots don't have their place in therapy.In fact，I can see how an animal robot could be helpful in certain situations where a real dog might not be possible.But let's not go replacing all the good boys and girls with robots just yet.
As for the study，it's interesting to see that while the kids said they loved real﹣life dogs better，they actually spent more time interacting with the robot.I can only imagine that it was doing some pretty impressive tricks，to hold the kids' attention for that long.
In all seriousness，though，I do think it's important to consider the welfare of therapy dogs.Visiting hospitals can be stressful and tiring for them
So，while I may not be ready to trade in my furry friends for robots just yet，I am open to the idea of introducing animal robots into therapy programs.Who knows？Maybe one day we'll all have our own personal robot pets that can provide us with just as much love and companionship as the real thing.But until then

C.They provide us with just as much love as real pets.
D.They are better at releasing patients' stress and tiredness.
3．（10分）The best ideas are often so smart，so simple and so clearly needed；it's strange to discover they don't already exist.So it is with Farm My School，regenerative market gardens farmed by and for local communities.
Co﹣founded by permaculturist Ben Shaw and regenerative educator James McLennan，Farm My School connects local people and organizations through volunteering that helps establish a school's market garden.Students learn about community networks，healthy eating，waste reduction，and climate relief while helping with food production.Schools integrate all these into their courses while producing vegetable boxes every week that feed local families
Farm My School has gained the extraordinary enthusiasm of the locals，who answered an online shout﹣out to buy tickets to the program's launch event at Bell Secondary School last October.Called Build A Farm in a Day Festival，the event featured workshops by Ben and James to share the skills required to build what they say is the world's largest no﹣dig garden."It was such a powerful event，"says James."We charged for the experience and 600 guys turned up!They didn't even need free drinks to get excited.We were gardening till midnight.It was amazing.We've got true community buy﹣in."
Volunteers have since begun beneficial planting throughout the school.Next steps include further discussions with local communities，employing a farmer，and bringing in a teacher to develop courses."We've seen this huge push towards seeing schools as regenerative spaces，and really seeing the school in a whole new light，"James says."For us，it's not only on the school to look after that farm anymore，which eventually makes it much more sustainable
（1）Why was Farm My School founded？
A.To raise the income of the local people.

5．（12.5分）What makes a work of architecture great？Most people would argue that aesthetics（美感）are the most important.（1） However，Roman architect Marcus Vitruvius Pollio believed that we should also consider durability and function when assessing a structure.The Rostonville Library in my city is a great example of Vitruvius's principles.
Constructed entirely of granite—a hard and tough stone，the library is durable.It can withstand environmental pollution.For example，it is resistant to acid rain.Moreover（2） It uses solar energy for heating and a rooftop garden for cooling.
（3） Providing free access to print and digital information，it conveys a feeling of openness and accessibility.Furthermore，the entire library is on one level，large windows let in plenty of natural light，so it's easy to see and get to each department within the library.
Finally，the library is beautiful，with aesthetically pleasing details both inside and out.The large windows are copper﹣framed（铜框的），which reaches down the sides of the building，adds to the aesthetics of the building.（4）

2．（10分）Well，well，well.It looks like robots are now coming for our beloved furry friends.According to a new study，if not better，at providing therapeutic（治疗的），I can tell you that this is quite a bold claim.
Sure，robots may have some benefits over real dogs.They can work for longer hours and won't cause allergies（过敏）or pass on diseases.But can a robot give you that wet﹣nosed，slobber﹣filled experience that a real dog can？I think not.
Now，I'm not saying that robots don't have their place in therapy.In fact，I can see how an animal robot could be helpful in certain situations where a real dog might not be possible.But let's not go replacing all the good boys and girls with robots just yet.
As for the study，it's interesting to see that while the kids said they loved real﹣life dogs better，they actually spent more time interacting with the robot.I can only imagine that it was doing some pretty impressive tricks，to hold the kids' attention for that long.
In all seriousness，though，I do think it's important to consider the welfare of therapy dogs.Visiting hospitals can be stressful and tiring for them
So，while I may not be ready to trade in my furry friends for robots just yet，I am open to the idea of introducing animal robots into therapy programs.Who knows？Maybe one day we'll all have our own personal robot pets that can provide us with just as much love and companionship as the real thing.But until then

B.His personal experience supports the study.
C.Robots have no therapeutic benefits to children.
D.Robots cannot replace real pets at present stage.
（3）Which of the following is a finding of the new study？ D
A.The kids preferred robot pets to real dogs.
B.Robots kept the kids' interest for a longer time.
C.The kids' concentration was effectively improved.
D.Robots had more tricks to impress kids than real dogs.
（4）Why is the author open to the idea of using robots in therapy？ C
A.They can share some of therapy pets' work.
B.They can guarantee the welfare of therapy pets.
C.They provide us with just as much love as real pets.
D.They are better at releasing patients' stress and tiredness.
【分析】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一项新的研究：动物机器人在为儿童提供治疗方面可能与真正的宠物一样有效。有一天，我们将拥有自己的个人机器人宠物，它们能给我们提供和真的宠物狗一样多的爱和陪伴。

Volunteers have since begun beneficial planting throughout the school.Next steps include further discussions with local communities，employing a farmer，and bringing in a teacher to develop courses."We've seen this huge push towards seeing schools as regenerative spaces，and really seeing the school in a whole new light，"James says."For us，it's not only on the school to look after that farm anymore，which eventually makes it much more sustainable

【点评】一、速读全文，了解大意知主题。
阅读能力一般指阅读速度和理解能力两个方面。阅读速度是阅读最基本的能力，考生必须在十分有限的时间内运用略读、扫读、跳读等技巧快速阅读，搜寻关键词、主题句，捕捉时空、顺序、情节、人物、观点，并且理清文章脉络，把握语篇实质。
二、看题干，带着问题读文章。
首先要掌握问题的类型，客观信息题可以从文章中直接找到答案；而主观判断题考查的是对文章的感情基调等，这类题必须经过对作者的态度、意图以及对整篇文章进行深一层的推理等。其次，了解试题题干以及各个选项所包含的信息，然后有针对性地对文章进行扫读，对有关信息进行快速定位。此法加强了阅读的针对性，提高了做题的准确率。
三、逻辑推理，做好深层理解题。
在实际阅读中，有时作者并未把意图说出来，阅读者要根据字面意思，通过语篇逻辑关系，研究细节的暗示，推敲作者的态度，理解文章的寓义。要求读者对文字的表面信息进行分析、挖掘和逻辑推理，不能就事论事，以偏概全。推理题在提问中常用的词有：infer，imply，suggest，indicate等。
四、猜词悟义，扫除阅读拦路虎。
猜词是应用英语的重要能力。它不但需要准确无误地理解上下文，而且要有较大的泛读量，掌握或认识较多的课外词汇。我们要学会"顺藤摸瓜"，通过构词，语法，定义，同位，对比，因果，常识，上下文等线索确定词义。
