【4题详解】
推理判断题。文章第二段讲到“I was standing in frnt f a stranger’s huse, rescue bx in hand, my head full f instructins t fllw. It wuld be my first test as a vlunteer wildlife rescuer. (我站在一个陌生人的房子前，手里拿着救援箱，满脑子都是要遵循的指令。这将是我作为志愿野生动物救援者的第一次考验)”可知，作者第一次救援时不知所措，就像一次考验，作者压力很大。因此，作者第一次野生动物救援时经历了很大压力。故选B。
【5题详解】
推理判断题。文章第三段讲到“She tld me this species hunts insects n the wing, s keeping it lnger than vernight wuld make it starve. I released it and it flew high immediately. “What wuld be different fr this delicate creature this time arund?” I wndered. Nthing. But at least it wuld win its life again. (她告诉我，这个物种捕食飞行中的昆虫，所以让它停留超过一夜会让它挨饿。我放了它，它立刻飞得很高。我想知道“这一次，这种脆弱的生物会有什么不同？”没什么。但至少它会再次赢得生命。)”可知，这只鸟又获得了生命。因此，放生后，这只鸟可能会找到它想要的食物。故选B。
【6题详解】
推理判断题。文章倒数第二段讲到“That was in 2009. My first rescue was a secnd chance fr the bird as well as fr me. (那是在2009年。我的第一次救援对这只鸟和我来说都是第二次机会)”以及“I’d been attracted by animals ever since I was a yung girl but had always thught that I’d missed that bat. Then I fund the bat again. (我从小就被动物吸引，但一直认为我错过了那艘船。然后我又找到了那艘船。)”可知，通过这次拯救小鸟以及自己经历癌症可知，作者又重新找到了自己的那艘船：生命的方向及价值。因此，作者做小鸟救援工作时为了重新找到生命的意义。故选C。
【7题详解】
主旨大意题。讲述了作者得了癌症，康复后为了减轻工作压力，参加了野生动物救援。在作者第一次营救了一只小鸟后，作者感悟到这时给了小鸟第二次生命的机会，也是给了自己第二次机会。文章倒数第二段讲到“That was in 2009. My first rescue was a secnd chance fr the bird as well as fr me. (那是在2009年。我的第一次救援对这只鸟和我来说都是第二次机会)”可知，最适合这篇文章的题目是：我们的第二次机会。故选C。
C
Are yu an early bird r a night wl? Our activity patterns and sleep cycles culd influence ur risk f heart disease. New research published in Experimental Physilgy fund wake/sleep cycles cause metablic (新陈代谢) differences and change ur bdy’s preference fr energy surces.
Researchers frm Rutgers University, New Jersey, USA classified participants int tw grups(early and late) based n their natural tendency t seek activity and sleep at different times. The participants were mnitred fr a week t assess their activity patterns acrss the day. They ate a calrie and nutritin-cntrlled diet and had t fast vernight t minimize dietary impact n the results. T study fuel preference, they were tested while at rest befre cmpleting tw 15-minute perid f exercise: ne mderate and ne high intensity sessin n a running machine. Aerbic fitness levels were tested thrugh an incline challenge where the incline was raised 2.5% every tw minutes until the participant reached a pint f exhaustin.
The researchers fund that thse wh stay up later have a reduced ability t use fat fr energy, meaning fats may build up in the bdy and increase the risk f heart disease. Peple wh are ‘early birds’ rely mre n fat as an energy surce and are mre active during the day with, higher levels f aerbic fitness than ‘night wls’. On the ther hand, ‘night wls’ use less fat fr energy at rest and during exercise.
Researchers als fund that early birds use mre fat fr energy at bth rest and during exercise than night wls. Prfessr Steven Malin frm Rutgers University said, “We fund that early birds are mre physically active and have higher fitness levels than night wls. Farther research is needed t examine the link between exercise and metablic adaptatin t identify whether exercising earlier in the day has greater health benefits.”
8. What des the underlined wrd “fast” in paragraph 2 mean?
A. Mve quickly.B. G withut fd.
C. Exercise regularly.D. Fall sund asleep.
9. Hw was the research cnducted?
A. By making a survey.B. By making cntrasts.
C. By prviding examples.D. By intrducing a cncept.
10. What is the characteristic f the “early birds”?
A. Having lwer fitness level.B. Using less fat during exercise.
C. Cnsuming mre fat at rest.D. Being mre active during the night.
11. What is Malin’s attitude t the result f the research?
A. Tlerant.B. Pessimistic.C. Indifferent.D. Uncertain.
【参考答案】8. B 9. B 10. C 11. D
【语篇解读】本文是一说明文。文章介绍了人的活动模式和睡眠周期与心脏病风险之间的关系。研究发现，早睡早起的人(早鸟)比晚睡晚起的人(夜猫子)更善于利用脂肪作为能量来源，且整体健康水平更高。
【8题详解】
词句猜测题。根据划线词前情态动词had t可知，fast是动词；结合划线词所在句“They ate a calrie and nutritin-cntrlled diet and had t fast vernight t minimize dietary impact n the results.(他们摄入了控制热量和营养的饮食，并且必须在夜间进行fast，以最小化饮食对结果影响)”可推知，ate a calrie and nutritin-cntrlled diet和fast vernight都是“最小化饮食对结果影响”的措施。由此推知，fast vernight是指“夜间禁食”，fast与g withut fd同义。故选B项。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段中“Researchers frm Rutgers University, New Jersey, USA classified participants int tw grups (early and late) based n their natural tendency t seek activity and sleep at different times. The participants were mnitred fr a week t assess their activity patterns acrss the day.(美国新泽西州罗格斯大学的研究人员根据参与者在不同时间寻求活动和睡眠的自然倾向，将他们分为两组(早睡和晚睡)。研究人员对参与者进行了为期一周的监测，以评估他们一天中的活动模式)”和第三段中“The researchers fund that thse wh stay up later have a reduced ability t use fat fr energy, meaning fats may build up in the bdy and increase the risk f heart disease. Peple wh are ‘early birds’ rely mre n fat as an energy surce and are mre active during the day with, higher levels f aerbic fitness than ‘night wls’. On the ther hand, ‘night wls’ use less fat fr energy at rest and during exercise.(研究人员发现，那些熬夜的人将脂肪转化为能量的能力降低，这意味着脂肪可能会在体内堆积，增加患心脏病的风险。“早起鸟”更多地依赖脂肪作为能量来源，白天比“夜猫子”更活跃，有氧健身水平更高。另一方面，“夜猫子”在休息和运动时消耗较少的脂肪作为能量)”可知，研究人员根据参与者在不同时间寻求活动和睡眠的自然倾向将他们分为两组，然后以各种方式对参与者进行监测和测试，通过比较两组的结果来得出结论。故选B项。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段中“Researchers als fund that early birds use mre fat fr energy at bth rest and during exercise than night wls.(研究人员还发现，与夜猫子相比，早起的鸟儿在休息和锻炼时消耗的脂肪更多)”可知，“早起的鸟儿”休息时消耗更多脂肪。故选C项。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。最后一段中Malin话“We fund that early birds are mre physically active and have higher fitness levels than night wls. Farther research is needed t examine the link between exercise and metablic adaptatin t identify whether exercising earlier in the day has greater health benefits.(我们发现，早起的鸟儿比夜猫子更活跃，健康水平也更高。需要进一步的研究来检验运动和代谢适应之间的联系，以确定一天中更早的运动是否对健康更有好处)”可知，Malin认为虽然目前的研究表明，早起和健康水平较高之间存在相关性，但马林不确定这两者之间的因果关系，以及早起锻炼对健康的潜在益处。他呼吁进一步的研究来检验这种联系。由此推知，他对研究结果持不确定的态度。故选D项。
D
There’s a useful cncept frm psychlgy that helps explain why gd peple d things that harm the envirnment: the false cnsensus (共识) effect. That’s where we vervalue hw acceptable and widespread ur wn behavir is in sciety. Put simply, if yu’re ding smething (even if yu secretly knw yu prbably shuldn’t), yu’re mre likely t think plenty f ther peple d it t. What’s mre, yu likely verestimate hw much ther peple think that behavir is bradly OK.
This bias (偏见) allws peple t justify scially unacceptable r illegal behavirs. Researchers have bserved the false cnsensus effect in drug use and illegal hunting. Mre recently, cnservatinists are beginning t reveal hw this effect cntributes t envirnmental damage.
In Australia, peple wh admitted paching (偷猎) thught it was much mre widespread in sciety than it really was, and had higher estimates than fishers wh beyed the law. They als believed thers viewed paching as scially tlerable; hwever, in reality, mre than 90% f fishers tk the ppsite stand n this. The false cnsensus effect has als shwn up in studies examining supprt fr nuclear energy and ffshre wind farms.
Just as cncepts frm psychlgy can help explain sme frms f envirnmental damage, s t can they help slve it. Fr example, research shws peple are mre likely t litter in areas where there’s already a lt f trash thrwn arund; s making sure the grund arund a bin is nt cvered in rubbish may help.
Factual infrmatin n hw ther peple think and behave can be very pwerful. Energy cmpanies have substantially reduced energy cnsumptin simply by shwing peple their difference in electricity use cmpared t their neighbrs. Encuragingly, stimulating peple’s natural desire fr scial psitin has als been successful in getting peple t “g green t be seen”, r t publicly purchase ec-friendly prducts.
As the research evidence shws, scial standards can be a pwerful frce in encuraging and ppularizing envirnmentally friendly behavirs. Perhaps yu can d yur bit by sharing this article!
12. Which example best illustrates the false cnsensus effect?
A. A student spends lng hurs surfing the Internet.
B. A blgger assumes many peple dislike his psts.
C. A smker believes peple generally apprve f smking.
D. A driver frequently parks illegally in public places.
13. Hw did mst Australian fishers view the issue f paching?
A. It is cntradictry.B. It is impractical.
C. It is widespread.D. It is unacceptable.
14. What d wrds “g green t be seen” refer t in paragraph 5?
A. Develp green habits fr better health.
B. Chse green items that are easy t spt in stres.
C. Jin green mvements fr persnal fulfillment.
D. Make green chices that thers can perceive.
15. What is a recmmended apprach t slving envirnmental prblems?
A. Justify scial standards.B. Publicize sustainable practices.
C. Encurage technlgical innvatins.D. Highlight persnal respnsibilities.
【参考答案】12. C 13. D 14. D 15. B
【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了错误共识效应这种心理现象，同时探讨了如何利用该效应解决环境问题。
【12题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段“There’s a useful cncept frm psychlgy that helps explain why gd peple d things that harm the envirnment: the false cnsensus (共识) effect.(心理学中有一个有用的概念可以解释为什么好人会做危害环境的事情：虚假共识效应)”以及“Put simply, if yu’re ding smething (even if yu secretly knw yu prbably shuldn’t), yu’re mre likely t think plenty f ther peple d it t.(简单地说，如果你在做某件事(即使你私下里知道你可能不应该做)，你更有可能认为很多其他人也在做)”可知，错误共识效应使人们可以为社会不可接受或非法的行为找到合理化的理由。由此可推知。“吸烟者认为人们普遍赞成吸烟。”最能说明错误共识效应。故选C。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“They als believed thers viewed paching as scially tlerable; hwever, in reality, mre than 90% f fishers tk the ppsite stand n this.(他们还认为，其他人认为偷猎在社会上是可以容忍的；然而，事实上，超过90%的渔民对此持相反立场)”可知，大多数澳大利亚渔民觉得偷猎是不可接受的。故选D。
【14题详解】
词句猜测题。根据倒数第二段中“r t publicly buy ec-friendly prducts(或者公开购买环保产品)”可知，r表示“或者”，说明划线短语和buy ec-friendly prducts意思相近，也就是买东西时做出环保的选择，并且让他人看见或知道，和D选项“Make green chices that thers can perceive.(做出别人能理解的绿色选择)”意思相近。故选D。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第三段的“Just as cncepts frm psychlgy can help explain sme frms f envirnmental damage, s t can they help slve it.(正如心理学概念可以帮助解释某些形式的环境破坏一样，它们也可以帮助解决环境破坏问题)”，倒数第二段的“Factual infrmatin n hw ther peple think and behave can be very pwerful. Energy cmpanies have substantially reduced energy cnsumptin simply by shwing peple their difference in electricity use cmpared t their neighbrs.(关于别人如何思考和行为的事实信息是非常强大的。能源公司仅仅通过向人们展示他们的用电量与邻居的比较就大大减少了能源消耗)”和最后一段的“As the research evidence shws, scial standards can be a pwerful frce in encuraging and ppularizing envirnmentally friendly behavirs.(正如研究证据所表明的那样，社会规范可以成为鼓励和普及环境友好行为的强大力量)”可推知，改变人们的观念可以解决环境问题，也就是要宣传可持续发展的做法。故选B。

Why is a cmpliment s impactful? One f the mst imprtant things t humans is t feel valued and respected by thers, says Vanessa Bhns, a scial psychlgist, wh has researched cmpliments. Accrding t her research, peple feel “significantly better” after bth giving and receiving a cmpliment. ____16____
“Yu handled that situatin s well.”
Bhns recently used her favrite cmpliment when she saw a server address a difficult situatin with a custmer at the bar. “I like it s much because yu use it in anxius mments where the ther persn is ften unsure f whether they handled a situatin OK,” she says. In situatins that call fr a cmpliment, dn’t secnd-guess yurself. Give yur cmpliments generusly. ____17____ That cncern is unfunded.
“____18____”
This cmpliment — ne f Bhns’ favrites — wrks well amng rmantic partners and clse family members. “It’s a beautiful way t highlight hw their presence turns life int smething meaningful, despite bring rutines f ur everyday lives,” she says. If yu’re afraid that giving a cmpliment like this will feel strange, yu’re nt alne. ____19____ If it makes yu persnally feel like the bar is lwered fr yu t give a cmpliment if yu write it dwn, r if yu practice saying it ut lud r giving yur pet cat the cmpliment first, d that.
“Hey, great dress!”
Feel free t cmpliment strangers. In Bhns’ research, students n a cllege campus were tld t apprach a stranger f the same gender and cmpliment them-abut, fr example, their nice shirt. Befre heading ut, the study participants tended t underestimate their psitive effect while verestimating hw annying it wuld be. Acrss all cntexts, strangers are mre likely t be pleased than cnfused.

【参考答案】16. F 17. G 18. D 19. C 20. E
【语篇解读】本文是说明文。文章主要通过引用社会心理学家Vanessa Bhns的研究和观点，来阐述赞美的重要性和如何有效地给予赞美。
【16题详解】
设空位于首段段尾，应是承接上文，引出下文的作用，根据前文“Why is a cmpliment s impactful? One f the mst imprtant things t humans is t feel valued and respected by thers, says Vanessa Bhns, a scial psychlgist, wh has researched cmpliments. Accrding t her research, peple feel “significantly better” after bth giving and receiving a cmpliment.(为什么赞美有这么大的影响力?研究赞美的社会心理学家凡妮莎·博恩斯(Vanessa Bhns)说，对人类来说，最重要的事情之一就是感到被别人重视和尊重。根据她的研究，人们在给予和接受赞美后都会感觉“好得多”)”可知，本文主要讲述了赞美的重要性，根据后文小标题可知，是一些赞美词，所以F项“With that in mind, we asked her t share sme f her favrite cmpliments.(考虑到这一点，我们请她分享一些她最喜欢的赞美)”承接上文，并引出下文，符合文意。故选F项。
【17题详解】
根据前文“In situatins that call fr a cmpliment, dn’t secnd-guess yurself. Give yur cmpliments generusly.(在需要赞美的情况下，不要怀疑自己。慷慨地赞美别人)”以及后文“That cncern is unfunded.(这种担心是没有根据的)”可知，前文讲述慷慨的赞美别人，后文讲述一种担心，所以空处应是提出一种担心，所以G项“Peple smetimes wrry that they’re ging ver and will start t sund insincere.(人们有时会担心自己说得过了头，听起来会不真诚)”符合文意。故选G项。
【18题详解】
分析设空，为本段小标题，是凡妮莎·博恩斯最喜欢的赞美，根据后文“This cmpliment—ne f Bhns’ favrites—wrks well amng rmantic partners and clse family members. “It’s a beautiful way t highlight hw their presence turns life int smething meaningful, despite bring rutines f ur everyday lives,” she says.(这是博恩斯最喜欢的赞美之一，在恋人和亲密的家庭成员之间很管用。她说：“这是一种美丽的方式，突显了他们的存在如何让生活变得有意义，尽管我们的日常生活很无聊。”)”可知，这个赞美适合浪漫伴侣和亲密的家庭成员之间使用，强调对方的存在如何使生活变得有意义，所以D项“Yu make even rdinary mments feel extrardinary.(你让平凡的时刻变得不平凡)”符合文意。故选D项。
【19题详解】
根据前文“If yu’re afraid that giving a cmpliment like this will feel strange, yu’re nt alne.(如果你害怕这样的赞美会让你觉得奇怪，那么你并不孤单)”以及后文“If it makes yu persnally feel like the bar is lwered fr yu t give a cmpliment if yu write it dwn, r if yu practice saying it ut lud r giving yur pet cat the cmpliment first, d that.(如果你把赞美的话写下来，或者你先练习大声说出来，或者先赞美你的宠物猫，这会让你觉得赞美的门槛降低，那就去做吧)”可知，空格需要提供一个克服这种担忧的方法，所以C项“One way t vercme this fear is t d a practice run.(克服这种恐惧的一个方法是进行练习)”与这个语境非常吻合，它直接回应了前文的担忧，并提供了后文所描述的建议。故选C项。
【20题详解】
设空位于段尾，是对前文的总结，根据前文“Feel free t cmpliment strangers. In Bhns’ research, students n a cllege campus were tld t apprach a stranger f the same gender and cmpliment them-abut, fr example, their nice shirt. Befre heading ut, the study participants tended t underestimate their psitive effect while verestimating hw annying it wuld be. Acrss all cntexts, strangers are mre likely t be pleased than cnfused. Plus, wh knws?(你可以随意赞美陌生人。在博恩斯的研究中，大学校园里的学生被要求接近一个同性陌生人并赞美他们——比如，赞美他们漂亮的衬衫。在出发之前，研究参与者往往低估了他们的积极影响，而高估了他们会有多烦人。在所有情况下，陌生人更容易感到高兴而不是困惑。另外，谁知道呢?)”可知，E项“Yu might make a new friend in additin t making smene’s day.(除了让别人开心之外，你还可能交到一个新朋友)”与这个语境非常吻合，描述了赞美陌生人可能带来的社交好处，是对前文方法的总结。故选E项。

【语篇解读】本文的文体是新闻报道。报道了福宝从韩国返回中国，详细描述了福宝的归来过程、受到的欢迎以及未来的生活环境。
【36题详解】
考查形容词。句意：福宝于2020年7月在韩国出生，由于其可爱的外表和吸引人的个性，迅速获得了大量的粉丝。空后是名词，所以空处应填形容词作定语，mass的形容词形式是massive。
【37题详解】
考查名词。句意：将“福宝”带回中国是一个漫长而充满挑战的过程，但通过中国和韩国当局的合作，它成为可能。空前是定冠词，所以空处应填名词作宾语，cperate的名词形式是cperatin。故填cperatin。
【38题详解】
考查定语从句。句意：4月3日，“福宝”从韩国登上飞机，安全抵达它所属的中国成都。分析句子结构可知，空处引导非限制性定语从句，先行词是Chengdu, China，在从句中作地点状语，用where引导。故填where。
【39题详解】
考查副词。句意：在那里，它受到了一群热切等待它到来的粉丝的欢迎。空处修饰空后的动词，用副词修饰。故填eagerly。
【40题详解】

【42题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：一些人甚至设立了欢迎富宝回国的广告。本句已有谓语动词have gne，所以welcme用非谓语动词，根据句意，此处表目的，用不定式作目的状语。故填t welcme。
【43题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：福宝现在可以生活在它的自然栖息地，被其他大熊猫包围，并得到应有的照顾和关注。本句已有谓语动词will be，所以surrund用非谓语形式，根据空后的by可知，用过去分词表被动。故填surrunded。
【44题详解】
考查动词时态和主谓一致。句意：福宝现在可以生活在它的自然栖息地，被其他大熊猫包围，并得到应有的照顾和关注。本句是省略that的定语从句，deserve作从句谓语，此处是对一般情况的描述，用一般现在时，主语it为第三人称单数。故填deserves。
【45题详解】
考查介词。句意：成都大熊猫繁育研究基地为“福宝”设立了一个特殊的隔离区，在那里它可以适应新的环境。adjust t为固定短语，意为“适应”。故填t。
