【11题详解】
考查时态。句意:本周一发布的一份报告显示,在过去十年中,我国儿童和青少年睡眠不足问题日益严重,超过80%的儿童和青少年在校期间睡眠不足。根据句中时间状语in the past ten years可知,用一般现在时。句中主语为Lack f sleep,不可数,所以谓语动词用has。故填has gt。
【12题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:本周一发布的一份报告显示,在过去十年中,我国儿童和青少年睡眠不足问题日益严重,超过80%的儿童和青少年在校期间睡眠不足。名词reprt与publish之间为被动关系,所以用过去分词作定语。故填published。
【13题详解】

【答案】14. attending
15. are seated
16. imaginatins
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了什么是元宇宙。
【14题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:想象一下,坐在舒适的沙发上参加会议,你没有打扮,但你的化身打扮了。imagine ding sth.“想象做某事”,空处应填attend“参加”的动名词形式,作Imagine的宾语。故填attending。
【15题详解】
考查动词语态。句意:你和其他人坐在一张虚拟的桌子旁,你可以对他们的反应和肢体语言进行判断,就像他们在现实生活中一样。本句描述一般事实,时态用一般现在时,且主语yu与seat“使……就座”为被动关系,应用一般现在时的被动语态,主语为yu,be动词用are。故填are seated。
【16题详解】
考查名词。句意:元宇宙很可能会很快将这些想象变成现实。空处应用名词imaginatin“想象”,作bring的宾语,被these修饰,应用复数形式。故填imaginatins。
C
阅读下列短文,根据短文内容填空。在未给提示词的空白处仅填写1个恰当的单词,在给出 提示词的空白处用括号内所给词的正确形式填空。

【答案】17. whether
18. has been accepted
19. shared 20. t chase
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章指出幽默是人类所特有的,是幸福的关键。
【17题详解】
考查宾语从句。句意:心理学家对幽默是天生的还是可以学习的存在分歧。分析可知,空处引导宾语从句,从句成分完整,但缺少“是否”之意,该从句位于介词n之后,故只能用whether引导。故填whether。
【18题详解】
考查时态和语态。句意:然而,有一件事至今已被普遍接受,那就是幽默感是人类所独有的。分析可知,空处为定语从句的谓语动词,主语that指代先行词ne thing,是第三人称单数;结合语境和时间状语s far判断为现在完成时,且that和accept之间为被动关系。故填has been accepted。
【19题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:这些都是其他生命形式所共有的品质。分析可知,空处应用非谓语动词作后置定语,share和逻辑主语qualities之间为被动关系,故用过去分词形式。故填shared。
【20题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:但如果幸福是人生追求的目标之一,那么幽默感就是关键。结合句意和句子结构可知,空处用不定式作gals的后置定语,表将来;因gals是chase的逻辑宾语,故用主动表被动。故填t chase。

Birds Can “Read” Human Gaze
We all knw that peple smetimes change their behavir when smene is lking their way. Nw, a new study reprted nline n April 2nd in Current Bilgy shws that jackdaws — birds related t crws with eyes that appear similar t human eyes — can d the same.
“Jackdaws seem t recgnize the eye’s rle in visual perceptin, r at the very least they are extremely sensitive t the way that human eyes are riented (朝向),” said Auguste vn Bayern, frmerly f the University f Cambridge and nw at the University f Oxfrd.
When presented with a preferred fd, hand-raised jackdaws tk significantly lnger t get the reward when a persn was directing his eyes twards the fd than when he was lking away, accrding t the research team led by Nathan Emery f the University f Cambridge and Queen Mary University f Lndn. The birds hesitated nly when the persn was unfamiliar and thus ptentially threatening.
In additin, the birds were able t interpret human cmmunicative gestures, such as gaze alternatin and pinting, t help them find hidden fd, they fund. The birds were unsuccessful in using unmving cues, including eye gaze r head rientatin.
Unlike mst birds, jackdaws’ eyes have a dark pupil surrunded by a silvery white iris. The researchers said they believe jackdaws are prbably sensitive t human eyes because, as in humans, eyes are an imprtant means f cmmunicatin fr them. The hand-raised birds examined in the study may be even better than wild jackdaws a attending t human gaze and respnding t the gestures f the peple wh have raised them.
The findings are particularly ntable given that mst ther species investigated s far including ur clses relatives the chimpanzee and “man’s best friend,” the dg, are nt particularly sensitive t eye rientatin and eye gaze, vn Bayern said. Rather, she cntinued, chimps and dgs seem t rely n ther cues such as head r bdy rientatin in determining the lking directin f thers. The results suggest that birds may deserve mre respect fr their mental abilities.
“We may have understated the psychlgical wrld f birds,” vn Bayern said. “Jackdaws, amng many ther birds, frm pair ties fr life and need t have much in cmmn and wrk tgether with their partner, which requires an efficient way f cmmunicating and sensitivity t their partner’s viewpint.”
27. A hand-raised jackdaw hesitates t take a preferred fd when the feeder__________.
A. is lking away frm the fdB. hlds the fd in his hand
C. is lking at the fdD. is unfamiliar t the bird
28. Accrding t researchers, jackdaws can ntice human eye rientatin prbably because_________.
A. like humans, they als use eyes t cmmunicate
B they are far mre intelligent than ther birds
C. they are mstly hand-raised by humans
D. their eyes als have a dark pupil
29. Why des the authr refer t chimpanzees and dgs?
A. T suggest that they are much better at interpreting gaze alternatin.
B. T reflect hw unique jackdaws are in being able t ntice gaze rientatin.
C. l shw that they cmmunicate mre frequently with humans than jackdaws.
D. T make clear that they rely n ther means in determining peple’s intentin.
30. What des the research finding suggest?
A. Nt all jackdaws are gd at attending t human gaze.
B We may have understated jackdaws’ mental abilities.
C. We knw embarrassingly less abut birds than we assume.
D. The clser we cmmunicate with animals, the better we understand them.
【答案】27. D 28. A 29. B 30. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。作者通过这篇文章主要向我们描述了实验发现鸟类可以“读懂”人类的凝视,科学家们推测也许鸟类也是用眼睛交流的,人类一直以来都忽视了鸟类的心理世界。
【27题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“When presented with a preferred fd, hand-raised jackdaws tk significantly lnger t get the reward when a persn was directing his eyes twards the fd than when he was lking away, accrding t the research team led by Nathan Emery f the University f Cambridge and Queen Mary University f Lndn. The birds hesitated nly when the persn was unfamiliar and thus ptentially threatening. (剑桥大学和伦敦玛丽女王大学的研究团队(由内森·埃默里领导)发现,当被给予喜爱的食物时,如果有人在注视着食物,那么人工饲养的寒鸦获取奖励的时间会明显长于那人没有注视食物时。只有当这个人是陌生的且可能构成威胁时,寒鸦才会表现出犹豫。)”可知,当喂食人是不熟悉的人时,鸟类在面对喜欢的食物是犹豫之后才吃,故选D。
【28题详解】
细节理解题。根据第五段中“Unlike mst birds, jackdaws’ eyes have a dark pupil surrunded by a silvery white iris. The researchers said they believe jackdaws are prbably sensitive t human eyes because, as in humans, eyes are an imprtant means f cmmunicatin fr them. (与大多数鸟类不同,寒鸦的眼睛有一个黑色的瞳孔,周围是银白色的虹膜。研究人员说,他们认为寒鸦可能对人类的眼睛很敏感,因为和人类一样,眼睛是它们重要的交流手段。)”可知,研究人员称,寒鸦能注意到人眼的方向,可能是因为像人类一样,它们也用眼睛交流,故选A。
【29题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“The findings are particularly ntable given that mst ther species investigated s far, including ur clses relatives the chimpanzee and “man’s best friend,” the dg, are nt particularly sensitive t eye rientatin and eye gaze, vn Bayern said.

(冯·拜仁说,考虑到迄今为止研究的大多数其他物种,包括我们的近亲黑猩猩和“人类最好的朋友”狗,对眼睛的方向和凝视并不特别敏感,这一发现尤其值得注意。相反,她继续说,黑猩猩和狗似乎依靠其他信号,如头部或身体的方向,来确定其他动物的视线方向。研究结果表明,鸟类的智力应该得到更多的尊重。)”可知,狗和黑猩猩对眼睛的方向和凝视并不特别敏感,而鸟类不一样,故推知作者提到黑猩猩和狗是为了反映寒鸦能够注意到凝视方向的独特性,故选B。

The Secret f Success
The recipe fr succeeding in any given field is hardly a mystery: gd ideas, hard wrk, discipline, imaginatin, perseverance and maybe a little luck. Oh, and let’s nt frget failure, which Dashun Wang and his clleagues at Nrthwestern University call “the essential prerequisite (先决条件) fr success” in a new paper.
But nt every failure leads t success, he adds. And what eventually separates the winners frm the lsers, the research shws, certainly is nt persistence. One f the mre interesting findings in the paper, published last Octber in Nature, is that the peple wh eventually succeeded and the peple wh eventually failed tried basically the same number f times t achieve their gals.
It turns ut that trying again and again nly wrks if yu learn frm yur previus failures. The idea is t wrk smart, nt hard. Yu have t figure ut what wrked and what didn’t, and then fcus n what needs t be imprved instead f struggling arund and changing everything,” says Wang. “The peple wh failed didn’t necessarily wrk less than thse wh succeeded. They culd actually have wrked mre: it’s just that they made mre unnecessary changes.”
As they explred “the mechanisms gverning the dynamics f failure”, Wang’s team identified what they describe as previusly unknwn statistical signatures that separate successful grups frm unsuccessful grups, making it pssible t predict their final utcmes.
One such key indicatr is the time between cnsecutive (连续的) failed attempts, which shuld decrease steadily. In ther wrds, the faster yu fail, the better yur chances f success, and the mre time between attempts, the mre likely yu are t fail again. “If smene has applied fr a grant and they are three failures in,” Wang says, “if we just lk at the timing between the failures, we will be able t predict whether they will eventually succeed r nt.”
Wrking with such large-scale data, Wang and his clleagues were able t identify a critical pint that was cmmn t each f the hundreds f thusands f undertakings they had analyzed, a frk in the rad where ne path leads t a develpment regin and ne leads t a stagnatin regin.
Wang pints ut that the existence f the tipping pint cuts against the traditinal explanatins fr failure r success, such as luck r a persn’s wrk habits. “What we’ re shwing here is that even in the absence f such differences, yu can still have very different utcmes.” he says. What matters is hw peple fail, hw they respnd t failure and where thse failures lead.
31. It can be learned frm Paragraph 2 that________.
A. winners are mre persistent than lsers
B. failure is nt imprtant fr success at all
C. mre trying desn’t necessarily result in success
D. winners and lsers differ in hw many times they tried
32. Wang and his clleagues believe that________.
A. n ne can btain success withut failure
B. failure can smetimes help predict success
C. the perfrmance pattern is difficult t identify
D. the critical pint had been discvered by chance
33. The underlined phrase “a stagnatin regin” in Paragraph 6 refers t a regin________.
A. withut prgressB. beynd recgnitin
C. unknwn t utsidersD. in its elementary stage
34. What is the cnclusin f Wang’s research?
A. Winners try less than lsers. but gain mre.
B. Perseverance is the utmst secret t success.
C. Wrking smart culd turn failures int future successes.
D. Luck and wrk habits hardly make any difference t the result.
【答案】31. C 32. B 33. A 34. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章分析了成功的秘密。
【31题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段“But nt every failure leads t success, he adds. And what eventually separates the winners frm the lsers, the research shws, certainly is nt persistence. One f the mre interesting findings in the paper, published last Octber in Nature, is that the peple wh eventually succeeded and the peple wh eventually failed tried basically the same number f times t achieve their gals. (但他补充说,并不是每一次失败都会导致成功。研究显示,最终区分赢家和输家的,当然不是坚持不懈。去年10月发表在《自然》杂志上的一篇论文中有一个更有趣的发现,那就是最终成功的人和最终失败的人为实现目标所尝试的次数基本相同。)”可知,更多的尝试不一定会带来成功。故选C。
【32题详解】
推理判断题。根据第五段中“In ther wrds, the faster yu fail, the better yur chances f success, and the mre time between attempts, the mre likely yu are t fail again. “If smene has applied fr a grant and they are three failures in,” Wang says, “if we just lk at the timing between the failures, we will be able t predict whether they will eventually succeed r nt.” (换句话说,失败的速度越快,成功的机会就越大,两次尝试之间的间隔时间越长,再次失败的可能性就越大。“如果有人申请了一项资助,但他们失败了三次,”王说,“如果我们只看两次失败之间的时间间隔,我们就能预测他们最终是否会成功。”)”可知,从两次失败的时间间隔可以帮助预测最终是否能成功,即失败有时可以帮助预测成功。故选B。
【33题详解】
词句猜测题。根据倒数第二段“Wrking with such large-scale data, Wang and his clleagues were able t identify a critical pint that was cmmn t each f the hundreds f thusands f undertakings they had analyzed, a frk in the rad where ne path leads t a develpment regin and ne leads t a stagnatin regin. (利用如此大规模的数据,王和他的同事们能够在他们分析的数十万个企业中找到一个共同的临界点,这是一个岔路口,一条路通向发展区域,一条路通向a stagnatin regin。)”可知,这个临界点导致两个不同的结果,即一个是“develpment regin (发展区域)”,那么与之相对的可以推断出是“停滞区域,非发展区”。a stagnatin regin的含义为“停滞区域,非发展区”。A. withut prgress没有进展;B. beynd recgnitin认不出来;C. unknwn t utsiders外人不知道;D. in its elementary stage处于初级阶段。故选A。
【34题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段“It turns ut that trying again and again nly wrks if yu learn frm yur previus failures. The idea is t wrk smart, nt hard. “Yu have t figure ut what wrked and what didn’t, and then fcus n what needs t be imprved instead f struggling arund and changing everything,” says Wang. “The peple wh failed didn’t necessarily wrk less than thse wh succeeded. They culd actually have wrked mre: it’s just that they made mre unnecessary changes.”(事实证明,只有从以前的失败中吸取教训,一次又一次的尝试才会成功。关键是要聪明地工作,而不是努力工作。“你必须弄清楚什么有效,什么无效,然后专注于需要改进的地方,而不是挣扎着改变一切,”王说。“失败者并不一定比成功者工作得少。他们其实可以做得更多:只是他们做了更多不必要的改变。”)”以及最后一段中““What we’ re shwing here is that even in the absence f such differences, yu can still have very different utcmes.” he says. What matters is hw peple fail, hw they respnd t failure and where thse failures lead. (他说:“我们在这里展示的是,即使没有这些差异,你仍然可以得到非常不同的结果。”重要的是人们如何失败,他们如何应对失败,以及这些失败会导致什么。)”可知,王的研究结果表明并不是每一次失败都会导致成功,真正导致成功的是弄清楚人们如何失败,他们如何应对失败,以及这些失败会导致什么,然后进行改变,即聪明地工作可以把失败变成未来的成功。故选C。

阅读下面短文,根据题目要求回答问题。
Is it better fr ur bdies t wrk ut at certain times f the day? Scientists have knwn fr sme time that every tissue in ur bdies cntains a kind f bilgical clck that ges ff in respnse t messages related t ur daily expsure t light, fd and sleep.
Hwever, whether and hw exercise timing might influence metablic (新陈代谢的) health has been less clear, and the results f past experiments have nt always agreed. A much-discussed 2019 study fund that men with Type 2 diabetes (糖尿病) wh cmpleted a few minutes f high-intensity interval (间隔) sessins in the afternn imprved their bld-sugar cntrl after tw weeks. Patrick Schrauwen, a prfessr f nutritin and mvement sciences read that 2019 study with interest. He had been studying exercise in peple with Type 2 diabetes, but had nt cnsidered the pssible rle f timing. Nw, seeing the varying impacts f the intense wrkuts, he wndered if the timing f wrkuts might similarly affect hw the wrkuts changed peple’s metablisms.
Incidentally, he and his clleagues had a ready-made surce f data in their wn prir experiment. Several years earlier, they had asked adult men at high risk fr Type 2 diabetes t ride statinary bicycles at the lab three times a week fr 12 weeks, while the researchers tracked their metablic health. They als had nted when the riders shwed up fr their wrkuts. The researchers pulled data fr the 12 men wh cnsistently had wrked ut between 8 and 10 a.m. and cmpared them with anther 20 wh always exercised between 3 and 6 p.m. They fund that the benefits f afternn wrkuts far utweighed thse f mrning exercise.
He says, “This study des suggest that afternn exercise may be mre beneficial fr peple with disturbed metablisms than the same exercise dne earlier. The particular and mst effective exercise fr each f us will line up with ur daily rutines and exercise tendencies because exercise is gd fr us at any time f day—but nly if we chse t keep ding it.”
40. What inspired Prfessr Schrauwen t carry ut the research related t the timing f wrkuts?
41. What did Schrauwen’s new study figure ut?
42. Please decide which part is false in the fllwing statement, then underline it and explain why.
Prfessr Schrauwen and his clleagues carried ut the research by using the newly-cllected data and making cmparisns between tw different subject grups.
43. When d yu think is the best time fr yu t exercise? Why? (abut 40 wrds)
【答案】40. The 2019 study.
41. Fr sme peple, it is better t wrk ut in the afternn.
42. Prfessr Schrauwen and his clleagues carried ut the research by using the newly-cllected data and making cmparisns between tw different subject grups.
Accrding t the passage, Prfessr Schrauwen and his clleagues didn’t cllect any new data t d the research. They made use f the ready-made surce f data frm their wn prir experiment.

【分析】本文是一篇科学研究。文章通过研究两个患有糖尿病的男性在不同的运动时间下其新陈代谢的不同,来说明运动时间选择的重要性以及它对我们新陈代谢健康的影响,进一步说明我们应该适当的选好适合自己的锻炼时间,来改善身体状况。
【40题详解】
考查细节理解。根据文章第二段“A much-discussed 2019 study fund that men with Type 2 diabetes (糖尿病) wh cmpleted a few minutes f high-intensity interval (间隔) sessins in the afternn imprved their bld-sugar cntrl after tw weeks. Patrick Schrauwen, a prfessr f nutritin and mvement sciences read that 2019 study with interest.(2019年一项备受争议的研究发现,2型糖尿病患者在下午完成几分钟的高强度间歇训练后,两周后血糖控制得到了改善。营养和运动科学教授帕特里克·施劳文饶有兴趣地阅读了2019年的这项研究。)”可知,是2019年的这项研究促使施劳文教授进行这项与锻炼时间有关的研究的,故答案为The 2019 study.
【41题详解】
考查细节理解。根据第三段“They fund that the benefits f afternn wrkuts far utweighed thse f mrning exercise.(他们发现下午锻炼的好处远远大于早晨锻炼的好处。)”以及第四段“This study des suggest that afternn exercise may be mre beneficial fr peple with disturbed metablisms than the same exercise dne earlier.(这项研究确实表明,下午锻炼对代谢紊乱的人可能比早些时候做同样的锻炼更有益。)”可知,教授的新研究发现对于一些人来讲,在下午运动会更好,故答案为Fr sme peple, it is better t wrk ut in the afternn.
【42题详解】
考查细节理解。根据第三段“Incidentally, he and his clleagues had a ready-made surce f data in their wn prir experiment. Several years earlier, they had asked adult men at high risk fr Type 2 diabetes t ride statinary bicycles at the lab three times a week fr 12 weeks, while the researchers tracked their metablic health. (顺便说一句,他和他的同事在他们之前的实验中有现成的数据来源。几年前,他们曾要求患有2型糖尿病的高风险成年男性每周在实验室骑3次固定自行车,持续12周,而研究人员则跟踪他们的代谢健康状况。”)可知,Schrauwen教授和他的同事没有收集任何新的数据来做研究。他们利用了自己先前实验中现成的数据来源,故答案为Prfessr Schrauwen and his clleagues carried ut the research by using the newly-cllected data and making cmparisns between tw different subject grups.
Accrding t the passage, Prfessr Schrauwen and his clleagues didn’t cllect any new data t d the research. They made use f the ready-made surce f data frm their wn prir experiment.
