C. Studying the past helps peple understand the mdern wrld.
D. The speaker des nt agree with thers’ definitins f histry.
【答案】14. B 15. A 16. C
【解析】
【原文】Fr a great many peple, histry is a set f facts, a cllectin f events, a series f things that happened in the past. Fr me, histry is firstly a way f thinking abut and seeing the wrld.
T make sense f the past, yu shuld learn hw t see it n its wn terms; in ther wrds, hw t figure ut the meaning f strange and unfamiliar things, and hw t identify with peple wh nce thught s differently as we d tday. If yu learn hw t d these things, yu begin t develp skills that nt nly help find the right directin in the past, but the present as well. Once yu can see the things that histry teaches yu, nce yu knw hw t understand the inner lgic f unfamiliar thughts and behavir, it becmes easier t make sense f the mdern wrld and the diverse peples and ideas arund yu.
It might seem unusual that ne f the best ways t explain the present is t study the past, but that is why histry can be s imprtant. When we appreciate that histry is nt nly a bdy f knwledge, but rather a way f thinking, it becmes a particularly pwerful tl. Nt everyne may chse t becme a histrian. Yet, whatever career yu chse, knwing hw t think histrically will help.

【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。本文主要讲述了BNPL消费的优缺点，以及作者对BNPL的态度。
【21题详解】
考查动词不定式。句意：在未来的几个月，这会给他们的预算带来什么风险？分析句子可知，空处表示动作未发生，应用动词不定式修饰前面的名词，作后置定语，in the mnths t cme译为“在未来几个月”。故填t cme。
【22题详解】
考查定语从句。句意：许多Z世代和千禧一代（通常在40岁及以下）倾向于使用这种短期融资，这使他们能够购买物品并在一段时间内付款。空处引导非限制性定语从句，先行词是this shrt-term financing，指物，用关系代词which引导从句，在从句中作主语。故填which。
【23题详解】
考查介词。句意：BNPL主要由金融技术提供，允许这些客户带息还款，第一笔付款通常在结账时支付。with interest“付利息地，带息”为固定搭配。故填with。
【24题详解】
考查表语从句。句意：最常见的“先买后付”计划是，客户分期付款四次，并在六周内还清债务。分析句子可知，此处应用表语从句的连接词，从句句子完整，不缺少成分，应用只起连接作用，无实意的that引导。故填that。
【25题详解】
考查定语从句。句意：对于一些人来说，这是一条生命线，比如一名每周收入不够大的大学生。空处引导限制性定语从句，先行词是student，指人，且在从句中作名词incme的定语，用关系代词whse引导从句，在从句中作定语。故填whse。
【26题详解】
考查情态动词。Adbe Digital Insights首席分析师Vivek Pandya表示：“BNPL为消费者提供了灵活的支付选择，使他们能够管理支出。”分析句子可知，空处应用情态动词，根据句意可知，此处应用表示“能够，可以”的情态动词can。故填can。
【27题详解】
考查代词。这对许多消费者来说非常重要，尤其是那些倾向于购买高成本商品的消费者。分析句子可知，空处应用代词，指代前文的cnsumers，指代名词复数，应用代词thse。故填thse。
【28题详解】
考查动词时态。然而，自从BNPL出现以来，专家们的警告已经进入了我们的视野。根据since和have cme以及句意可知，主句是现在完成时，since从句描述过去发生的动作，应用一般过去时，谓语动词应用过去式。故填appeared。
【29题详解】
考查现在分词。根据纽约联邦储备银行经济学家的说法，BNPL可能会鼓励债务随着时间的推移而增加，影响消费者履行非BNPL承诺的能力，或者用户过度扩张自己。该句的谓语是may encurage，且无连词，空处应用非谓语动词，influence与逗号前面的句子之间是主动关系，应用现在分词作结果状语，表示自然而然的结果。故填influencing。
【30题详解】
考查让步状语从句。消费者金融保护局说，用户还应该注意，虽然贷款不收取利息，但他们将因未付款而受到滞纳金的打击，这些滞纳金可能很快就会累积起来。根据interest is nt charged n the lan与they’ll be hit with late fees fr missed payments存在让步转折关系可知，空处应用让步状语从句的连接词，表示“虽然，尽管”，故填althugh/thugh/while。
Sectin B

Sectin A
Directins: Fr each blank in the fllwing passage there are fur wrds r phrases marked A, B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the wrd r phrase that best fits the cntext.
Paris has lng been at the heart f the histry f flight. It is where the Mntglfier brthers went up in the first ht-air balln in 1783, and where Charles Lindbergh cmpleted the first ne-persn transatlantic arephane jurney in 1927. Next year, if all ges t plan, Paris will witness the birth f anther industry____41____, when Vlcpter, a German maker f electric aircraft, launches a flying-taxi service during the Olympic Games.

(A)
Every summer, as a child, I spent with my parents the annual family hliday, flying away frm ur hme in the West Midlands t their birthplace in Ireland.
I enjyed it, but nce, I behaved differently and left hme. Package turs and lng-distance flights became my idea f a hliday. I then went and ran int an Englishman wh als came f Irish stck, and we bth felt the urge t renew ur knwledge f Ireland.
It was imprtant fr us t discver smething different frm ur childhd visits. S that’s hw we came t drive alng the winding St Jhn’s Pint Peninsula (半岛) in Dnegal, part f Ireland’s Wild Atlantic Way, t visit a unique part f the 20th-century histry — the Dnegal Crridr.
When anyne drives t the pint where the land runs ut, he sees giant white stnes fixed firmly in green grass spelling ut “EIRE” and “70”, while the Atlantic wind fiercely blws acrss the headland and the ice-white waves smash int the rcks belw. The meaning behind the stnes? They date back t the Secnd Wrld War when St Jhn’s Pint was number 70 in a ttal f 83 Lk Out Pints (LOPs), bservatin statins set up and maintained by Ireland all arund its cast.
There lies a bit f curius UK-Ireland histry. Althugh Ireland was fficially neutral during the war, the Battle f the Atlantic was being fught clse t Irish shres, and these LOPs, staffed by lcal vlunteers knwn as Cast watchers, passed n infrmatin n activities cnnected with the sea and weather frnts t Lndn.
At St Jhn’s Pint, we were standing right under the Dnegal Crridr, a lng narrw area f airspace in which Ireland ensured safe passage during Wrld War II t planes in the RAF (Ryal Air Frce) frm bases in the UK-gverned Nrth f Ireland. The stne markings acted as reference pints t aircrews.
Standing n this rugh area f land surrunded by the wild and windy cean brught hme t us the cnditins in which the Cast watchers and aircrews in the RAF cperated in a shared histry.
I revlted against my family traditin that summer, and I fulfilled my aim f discvering smething new and absrbed all Dnegal has t ffer: empty glden beaches, mysterius ancient stne circles, flk music and crafts, and tasty fd. I had fallen in lve with Ireland all ver again.
56. What can we learn abut the authr frm paragraphs 1 t 3?

【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了作者有一年夏天去爱尔兰旅行的经历，她和一位同样有爱尔兰血统的英国人参观了多尼戈尔走廊，发现了其背后独特的历史意义，并认识到了很多新事物。
【56题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“Every summer, as a child, I spent with my parents the annual family hliday, flying away frm ur hme in the West Midlands t their birthplace in Ireland. (小时候，每年夏天，我都会和父母一起度过一年一度的家庭假期，从西米德兰兹郡的家飞到他们在爱尔兰的出生地)”和第二段中“I then went and ran int an Englishman wh als came f Irish stck, and we bth felt the urge t renew ur knwledge f Ireland. (然后我去了，碰到了一个同样是爱尔兰血统的英国人，我们都感到迫切需要更新我们对爱尔兰的认识)”可知，作者和这位英国人都有爱尔兰祖先。故选B项。
【57题详解】
细节理解题。根据倒数第三段“At St Jhn’s Pint, we were standing right under the Dnegal Crridr, a lng narrw area f airspace in which Ireland ensured safe passage during Wrld War II t planes in the RAF (Ryal Air Frce) frm bases in the UK-gverned Nrth f Ireland. The stne markings acted as reference pints t aircrews. (在圣约翰角，我们正站在多尼戈尔走廊的正下方，这是一个狭长的空域，在第二次世界大战期间，爱尔兰确保了英国皇家空军RAF的飞机从英国统治的北爱尔兰基地安全通过。这些石头标记充当了机组人员的参考点)”可知，这些白色巨石在二战中很重要是因为它们是英国皇家空军机组人员的参考点。故选C项。
【58题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第二段中“I enjyed it, but nce, I behaved differently and left hme. (我很喜欢，但有一次，我表现得不一样，离开了家)”，以及画线词的下文“my family traditin that summer (那年夏天我的家庭传统)”可推知，此处指上文提到的作者在那年夏天没有遵循以往的家庭传统，而是独自一人去旅行，revlt against意思应该是“反抗，不遵循”，与disbey意思相近。故选D项。
【59题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是最后一段中“I fulfilled my aim f discvering smething new and absrbed all Dnegal has t ffer: empty glden beaches, mysterius ancient stne circles, flk music and crafts, and tasty fd. I had fallen in lve with Ireland all ver again (我实现了发现新事物的目标，并吸收了多尼戈尔所能提供的一切：空旷的金色海滩、神秘的古代石圈、民间音乐和手工艺，以及美味的食物。我又一次爱上了爱尔兰)”可知，文章讲述了作者有一年夏天去爱尔兰旅行的经历，她和一位同样有爱尔兰血统的英国人参观了多尼戈尔走廊，发现了其背后独特的历史意义，并认识到了很多新事物。因此，B项“发现未被发现的多尼戈尔”符合文章大意，适合作为标题。故选B项。

Sme media may hld back r verstate infrmatin, like an advertisement that makes the prducts appear mre effective than they really are. (使用照片编辑软件，几乎任何人都可以对图像进行重大修改，从调整颜色和灯光到添加和删除内容。这就是为什么你应该始终对媒体中的图像保持批判的眼光。一些媒体可能会隐瞒或夸大信息，比如广告使产品看起来比实际更有效。)”可知，题干“你阿姨发现她新买的腰带并不像广告上说的那么时髦”描述的是货与商家宣传照片不对版，与图C一致。故选C。
【62题详解】
推理判断题。根据第1段“Ads, news, mvies, TV shws, and many ther types f media all want yu t accept their messages at face value.

(C)
Antibitics, which can destry r prevent the grwth f bacteria and cure infectins, are vital t mdern medicine. Their ability t kill bacteria withut harming the patient has saved billins f lives and made surgical prcedures much safer. But after decades f veruse, their pwers are fading. Sme bacteria have evlved resistance, creating a grwing army f superbugs, against which there is little effective treatment. Antimicrbial (抗菌的) resistance, expected t kill 10 millin peple a year by 2050 up frm arund 1 millin in 2019, has been seen as a crisis by many.
It wuld be unwise t rely n new antibitics t slve the prblem. The rate at which resistance emerges is increasing. Sme new drugs last nly tw years befre bacteria develp resistance. When new antibitics d arrive, dctrs ften stre them, using them nly reluctantly and fr shrt perids when faced with the mst persistent infectins. That limits sales, making new antibitics an unappealing idea fr mst drug firms.
Gvernments have been trying t fix the prblem by channeling cash int research in drug firms. That has prduced nly limited imprvements. But there is a phenmenn wrth a lk. Micrbilgists have knwn fr decades that disease-causing bacteria can suffer frm illnesses f their wn. They are supersensitive t attacks by phages, specialized viruses that infect bacteria and ften kill them. Phages are cnsidered a prmising alternative t antibitics.
Using ne disease-causing virus t fight bacteria has several advantages. Like antibitics, phages nly tend t chse particular targets, leaving human cells alne as they infect and destry bacterial nes. Unlike antibitics, phages can evlve just as readily as bacteria can, meaning that even if bacteria d develp resistance, phages may be able t evlve arund them in turn.
That, at least, is the thery. The truble with phages is that cmparatively little is knwn abut them. After the discvery f penicillin, the first antibitic, in 1928, they were largely ignred in the West. Given the severity f the antibitic-resistance prblem, it wuld be a gd idea t find ut mre abut them.
The first step is t run mre clinical trials. Interest frm Western firms is grwing. But it is being held back by the fact that phages are an even less appealing investment than antibitics. Since they are natural living things, there may be truble patenting them, making it hard t recver any investment.
Gvernments can help fun d basic research int phage treatment and clarify the law arund exactly what is and is nt patentable. In time they can set up phage banks s as t make prductin cheaper. And they can spread awareness f the risks f verusing antibitics, and the ptential benefits f phages.
63. We can learn frm paragraphs 1 and 2 that .
A. dctrs tend t use new antibitics when the patients ask fr them
B. antimicrbial resistance is develping mre rapidly than predicted
C. new antibitics fail t attract drug firms due t limited use f them
D. previus antibitics are effective in slving mdern health prblems
64 What is phages’ advantage ver antibitics?
A. They can increase human cells when fighting bacteria.
B. They are nt particular abut which cells t infect and kill.
C. They can evlve accrdingly when bacteria develp resistance.
D. They are t sensitive t be infected by disease-causing bacteria.
65. Accrding t the passage, the bstacle t phage treatment is that .
A. there is little chance f patenting phages in the future
B. gvernments prvide financial supprt fr ther research
C. the emergence f superbugs hlds back drug firms’ interest
D. ver-dependence n antibitics distracts attentin frm phages
66. What is the main idea f the passage?
A. Gvernments fail t stp the use f antibitics.
B. Phages culd help prevent an antibitics crisis.
C. Develpment f antibitics is limited by phages.
D. Antimicrbial resistance calls fr new antibitics.
【答案】63. C 64. C 65. D 66. B
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要解释了噬菌体可以替代问题多多的抗生素，有许多优点，建议政府多方面采取措施推动推广。
【63题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“When new antibitics d arrive, dctrs ften stre them, using them nly reluctantly and fr shrt perids when faced with the mst persistent infectins. That limits sales, making new antibitics an unappealing idea fr mst drug firms.(当新的抗生素出现时，医生通常会把它们储存起来，在面对最持久的感染时，他们只是不情愿地短期使用它们。这限制了销售，使得新抗生素对大多数制药公司来说是一个没有吸引力的想法)”可知，由于使用有限，新型抗生素无法吸引制药公司。故选C。
64题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段“Unlike antibitics, phages can evlve just as readily as bacteria can, meaning that even if bacteria d develp resistance, phages may be able t evlve arund them in turn.(与抗生素不同，噬菌体可以像细菌一样迅速进化，这意味着即使细菌产生耐药性，噬菌体也可以反过来在细菌周围进化)”可知，噬菌体相对于抗生素优势是当细菌产生耐药性时，它们会相应地进化。故选C。
【65题详解】
细节理解题。根据第五段“The truble with phages is that cmparatively little is knwn abut them. After the discvery f penicillin, the first antibitic, in 1928, they were largely ignred in the West. Given the severity f the antibitic-resistance prblem, it wuld be a gd idea t find ut mre abut them.(噬菌体的问题在于，人们对它们的了解相对较少。1928年，第一种抗生素青霉素被发现后，它们在西方基本上被忽视了。考虑到抗生素耐药性问题的严重性，找到更多关于它们的信息将是一个好主意)”可知，噬菌体治疗的障碍是对抗生素的过度依赖分散了对噬菌体的关注。故选D。
【66题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段“Antibitics, which can destry r prevent the grwth f bacteria and cure infectins, are vital t mdern medicine. Their ability t kill bacteria withut harming the patient has saved billins f lives and made surgical prcedures much safer. But after decades f veruse, their pwers are fading. Sme bacteria have evlved resistance, creating a grwing army f superbugs, against which there is little effective treatment. Antimicrbial(抗菌的) resistance, expected t kill 10 millin peple a year by 2050 up frm arund 1 millin in 2019, has been seen as a crisis by many.(抗生素对现代医学至关重要，它可以消灭或阻止细菌的生长，并治愈感染。它们在不伤害病人的情况下杀死细菌的能力挽救了数十亿人的生命，并使外科手术更加安全。但经过几十年的过度使用，它们的力量正在减弱。一些细菌已经进化出了耐药性，产生了越来越多的超级细菌，而目前几乎没有有效的治疗方法。抗微生物药物耐药性被许多人视为一场危机。预计到2050年，每年将导致1000万人死亡，而2019年约为100万人)”以及文章内容可知，文章主要解释了噬菌体可以替代问题多多的抗生素，有许多优点，建议政府多方面采取措施推动推广，所以本文的主旨是噬菌体可以帮助预防抗生素危机。故选B。

【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要解释了什么是社交伪装，社交伪装的作用以及意义等。
【67题详解】
根据上文“Amanda is always an expert at wrking the rm. She wuld adpt the manner f the peple arund her t fit in while hiding her true persnality. This is scial masking, the prcess f hiding yur natural way f interacting with thers s yu can feel accepted.(阿曼达在整理房间方面总是很在行。她会模仿周围人的举止来适应，同时隐藏自己的真实个性。这是社会伪装，隐藏你与他人互动的自然方式，这样你就会感到被接受)”以及后文“Instead, they are hping t fit in with everybdy else. Scial masking is a set f learned pattern-matching behavirs, mvements and actins where yu try t be nrmal t fit in rather than stand ut.(相反，他们希望能和其他人打成一片。社会伪装是一套习得的模式匹配行为，动作和行动，你试图成为正常的，以适应而不是脱颖而出)”可知，后文指出了社会伪装者的真实意图，可知本句是在说明与后文“希望能和其他人打成一片”相反的观点：想要欺骗任何人。故C选项“社交伪装者并不是想要欺骗任何人”符合语境，故选C。
【68题详解】
根据本段内容“Peple all wear certain scial masks in rder t get thrugh sme tricky life situatins with cnfidence, accrding t Dr. Tara Quinn-Cirill. And sme experts even think scial masking is built in all human beings at a physical level, adding that smething in ur brain gives indicatins f hw t essentially stay safe and nt stick ut.(根据塔拉·奎因-西里洛博士的说法，人们都戴着一定的社交面具，以便自信地度过一些棘手的生活状况。一些专家甚至认为，社会面具是在所有人的身体层面上建立的，并补充说，我们大脑中的某些东西给出了如何基本上保持安全而不引人注目的指示)”可知，本段主要说明了人们社交伪装的原因之一是为了度过困境。故B选项“在某种程度上，我们都会戴上社交面具”符合语境，故选B。
【69题详解】
根据上文“In a wrld that ften tells us t just be urselves, yu might wnder why we are still dependent n these scial masking behavirs. “Scial masking happens because we as a species want t be included,” says Tara. “It has been a tribal thing f being tgether rather than being n ur wn, frm a histrical perspective.(在一个经常告诉我们做自己的世界里，你可能想知道为什么我们仍然依赖于这些社会掩饰行为。塔拉说：“社会伪装之所以发生，是因为我们作为一个物种想要被包括在内。从历史的角度来看，这是一个部落的事情，我们在一起，而不是独自一人)”可知，上文提到了我们不是独自一个人，而是一个群体，故本句进行进一步解释说明：社会化是我们进化的一个古老部分，而不是反社会或格格不入。故F选项“它被那些不能按照社会公认的方式自然行事的人所采用”符合语境，故选F。
【70题详解】
根据上文“There is a huge difference between naturally identifying with smene and cnsciusly scial masking.(在自然地认同某人和有意识的社会伪装之间存在着巨大的差异)”以及后文“Scial masking, n the ther hand, invlves a cnscius effrt t change yur persnality t suit yur surrundings. It typically invlves depressing yur natural urges and changing yur persnal interests t fit the crwd.(另一方面，社会伪装涉及到有意识地改变你的个性以适应你的环境。它通常包括抑制你的自然冲动，改变你的个人兴趣以适应人群)”可知，本句是在解释自然认同和社会伪装之间的差异，故D选项“当我们与某人产生自然的认同时，它会很自然地发生，几乎不需要付出什么努力”符合语境，故选D。

72. 室友们商定好每两天打扫一次宿舍。(agree) (汉译英)
【答案】The rmmates agreed t clean the drmitry every tw days.
【解析】
【详解】考查名词和时态。结合句意可知事情发生在过去，故句子用一般过去时，谓语动词用过去式。句子主语是“室友们”，即“rmmates”，是rmmate的复数形式，放在句首首字母大写；“agree t d sth.”意为“同意做某事”，“agree”的过去式为“agreed”，是句子谓语；“打扫宿舍”用“clean the drmitry”，“clean”这一动词用在“agree t”后，应用原形；“每两天”用“every tw days”，放在句末作时间状语。故答案为The rmmates agreed t clean the drmitry every tw days.
73. “乏味”这个词和他最新的漫画沾不上边。(apply) (汉译英)

The bvius part f a message is called the text, which includes any language, imagery, music, r anything else yu can see r hear. The implied part f a message is called the subtext, and it’s suggested by the cntent rather than directly seen r heard. We as individuals then decide hw t interpret this subtext based n ur persnal ideas, wrld views, and expectatins. Peple with different perspectives might interpret the same piece f message differently. Mind that sme media may just take advantage f the prejudice.
