Our Teen Summer Spanish Program is two weeks of fun, educational excitement that helps students learn Spanish fast. Our Spanish summer program allows our students to learn from highly trained, certified teachers and be absorbed in the language and the culture of Costa Rica.
Features include:
* Intensive(强化的) daily Spanish classes
* Extracurricular classes in dance, cooking, music, and handiwork
* Outdoor activities including hiking, camping, rafting, and ziplining(高空滑索)
* Homestay with a local Costa Rican family
* Volunteer work in needy neighborhoods
Our Teaching Methods:
We are proud to use TPRS---Total Physical Response Storytelling---in our curriculum. This innovative method uses strange and amusing stories to teach new vocabulary, increase fluency, and get students involved by giving them the opportunity to alter the details themselves. Because of the silliness, creativity, and repetition involved, TPRS allows students to learn easily and remember information effortlessly
Memorizing vocabulary and listening to lectures on grammar are slow, inefficient ways to learn a new language. The best way to truly learn and commit new material to memory is through conversation. In our Spanish classes, students can expect to speak up to 80% of each class. By speaking in the new language freely and consistently, students can see progress faster because they are using the new grammar and vocabulary that they have learned at the same time. This helps the brain remember the new words and grammar structures for future use, making it much easier to progress.
1. What does the program do?
A. It offers weekly Spanish classes
B. It focuses more on outdoor activities
C. It gives teachers a chance to receive training
D. It provides activities about the Spanish culture
2. What is the best way to learn a language according to the text?
A. Memorizing a larger vocabulary
B. Speaking more in the new language.
C. Mastering more grammar structures
D. Writing stories to share with others
3. What is the purpose of the text?
A. To employ experienced Spanish teacher
B. To hire foreign volunteers for a program

It’s a little before 8 a.m. when Mathias Schergen pushes open the side door at Chicago’s Jenner Elementary Academy for the Arts. He walks down the hall toward the office to sign in. It’s the same routine he’s had as Jenner’s art teacher for nearly a quarter century. “It’s going to be a good day,” a colleague calls out. “It’s a good day.” They hug. It seems like a typical Friday. Except it’s not. After 23 years at Jenner Elementary, Schergen is retiring. Even on his last day, there are still art projects to finish.
Schergen leaves behind a rich legacy at this school. He’s won grants (拨款) for art projects. He turned an empty classroom into a museum. He’s pushed his students to make art about their lives. And he was awarded a Golden Apple — the most honorable teaching award in Chicago. But it wasn’t always easy. For years, Schergen taught in one of the city’s toughest neighborhoods. “When I first got my room, I noticed there were bullet holes in the window. That made me nervous,” he says. So he stuffed Beanie Babies in the holes to make it “look kind of funny”. “I didn’t even tell my wife for a whole year,” he says. “I didn’t want her to know.”
With one hour to go, Schergen piles the chairs and sweeps the floor. He cleans out the sink for the last time. Fifth-grader Deontae Barnes, one of his best helpers, has watched him say goodbye all day. He wanders in the doorway. “Ah, come here, son,” Schergen says, signaling him over. He bends down for a hug. “Thank you for making these last days special and being a help to me.”
When Deontae leaves, a reporter asks Schergen: When your kids ask why you’re retiring, what do you tell them? “I just tell them that grown people have dreams too,” he says. “I have other things in my life I have to do. It’s time. It’s just time.”
4. Why is it a special Friday for Schergen?
A. He was retiring on that day. B. He won an honor for his school.
C. He was interviewed by a reporter. D. He received a Golden Apple award.
5. What does the underlined word “legacy” in Paragraph 2 refer to?
A. Art projects. B. Great achievements.
C. Respect from students. D. Change in teaching.
6. What made Schergen nervous when he first got to the school?
A. Safety concerns in the school. B. The poorly-equipped classroom.
C. Being misunderstood by his family. D. Students’ poor academic performance.
7. What is the best title for the text?
A. A Typical Day for an Art Teacher B. Time for Art Projects
C. A Teacher’s Final Day at School D. The Last Art Class
【答案】4. A 5. B 6. A 7. C
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了Mathias Schergen，一位令人尊敬的小学艺术老师，在上班的最后一天仍然尽职尽责的情况。
【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中“It seems like a typical Friday. Except it’s not. After 23 years at Jenner Elementary, Schergen is retiring. Even on his last day, there are still art projects to finish. (这似乎是一个平常的周五。其实它不是。在詹纳小学工作了23年后，Schergen即将退休。即使在他的最后一天，仍然有艺术项目要完成)”可知，对Schergen来说这周五是特别的，因为那天他就要退休了。故选A项。
【5题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第二段中“Schergen leaves behind a rich legacy at this school. He’s won grants (拨款) for art projects. He turned an empty classroom into a museum. He’s pushed his students to make art about their lives. And he was awarded a Golden Apple — the most honorable teaching award in Chicago. (Schergen在这所学校留下了丰富的legacy。他赢得了艺术项目的拨款。他把一间空教室变成了博物馆。他督促他的学生创作关于他们生活的艺术。他还获得了金苹果奖——芝加哥最光荣的教学奖)”由下文介绍了 Schergen 为学校所作出的贡献、给学校带来的荣誉，可知，划线词意为 legacy“成就”。故选B项。
【6题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段中““When I first got my room, I noticed there were bullet holes in the window. That made me nervous,” he says. (“当我第一次回到我的房间时，我注意到窗户上有许多弹孔。这让我很紧张。”他说)”可知，有弹孔的窗户说明学校的安全令人担心，因此第一次到学校时，学校的安全问题让Schergen很紧张。故选A项。
【7题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段中“It seems like a typical Friday. Except it’s not. After 23 years at Jenner Elementary, Schergen is retiring. Even on his last day, there are still art projects to finish. (这似乎是一个典型的周五。其实它不是。在詹纳小学工作了23年后，Schergen即将退休。即使在他的最后一天，仍然有艺术项目要完成)”以及下文对他一天工作的描述，可知，本文主要讲述了小学艺术老师 Schergen 最后一天上班的情景，因此本文的最佳标题选项C“一位教师在学校的最后一天”符合题意。故选C项。
C
You've probably heard it suggested that you need to move more throughout the day, and as a general rule of thumb, that "more" is often defined as around 10,000 steps. With many Americans tracking their steps via new fitness-tracking wearables, or even just by carrying their phone, more and more people use the 10,000-step rule as their marker for healthy living. Dr. Dreg Hager, professor of computer science at Johns Hopkins, decided to take a closer look at that 10,000-step rule, and he found that using it as a standard may be doing more harm than good for many.
“It turns out that in 1960 in Japan they figured out that the average Japanese man, when he walked 10,000 steps a day burned something like 3,000 calories and that is what they thought the average person should consume so they picked 10,000 steps as a number” Hager said.
According to Hager, asking everyone to shoot for 10,000 steps each day could be harmful to the elderly or those with medical conditions, making it unwise for them to jump into that level of exercise, even if it's walking. The bottom line is that 10,000 steps may be too many for some and too few for others. He also noted that those with shorter legs have an easier time hitting the 10,000-step goal because they have to take more steps than people with longer legs to cover the distance. It seems that 10,000 steps may be suitable for the latter.
A more recent study focused on older women and how many steps can help maintain good health and promote longevity (长寿).The study included nearly 17,000 women with an average age of 72. Researchers found that women who took 4,400 steps per day were about 40% less likely to die during a follow-up period of just over four years: Interestingly, women in the study who walked more than 7,500 steps each day got no extra boost in longevity.
8. What does the underlined word "it' in Paragraph 1 refer to?
A. The phone recording. B. The 10,000-step rule.
C. The healthy living. D. The fitness-tracking method.
9. What does Paragraph 2 mainly talk about?
A. How many steps a Japanese walks.
B. How we calculate the number of steps.
C. If burning 3,000 calories daily is scientific.
D. Where 10,000 steps a day came from.
10. Who will probably benefit from 10,000 steps each day according to Hager?
A. Senior citizens. B. Young short-legged people.
C. Healthy long-legged people D. Weak individuals.
11. How many steps may the researchers suggest senior citizens take each day?
A. 4,400 steps. B. 10,000 steps.
C. 2,700 steps. D. 7,500 steps.
【答案】8. B 9. D 10. C 11. A
【解析】
【分析】本文是说明文。每天走一万步经常作为人们锻炼的标准，文章介绍了这个标准的由来及专家对此标准的看法，锻炼要因人而异，因年龄和身体状况而异。
【8题详解】
猜测词义题。第一段开头“You've probably heard it suggested that you need to move more throughout the day, and as a general rule of thumb, that "more" is often defined as around 10,000 steps.”(你可能听过这样的建议:一天中你需要多走几步，根据一般经验，“多走”通常被定义为大约10,000步。)提出了一万步法则。根据 “Dr. Dreg Hager, professor of computer science at Johns Hopkins, decided to take a closer look at that 10,000-step rule,”可知Dreg Hager教授决定仔细研究一万步法则，下文画线词语所在句子“he found that using it as a standard”与上句承接，指把一万步法则作为标准，it即指The 10,000-step rule。故选B。
【9题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第二段“It turns out that in 1960 in Japan they figured out that the average Japanese man, when he walked 10,000 steps a day burned something like 3,000 calories and that is what they thought the average person should consume so they picked 10,000 steps as a number” (结果证明在1960年的日本，他们发现日本人平均每天走一万步会消耗3000卡路里，这是他们认为普通人应该消耗的热量，所以他们选择把一万步作为标准。)可知本段在介绍每天一万步法则的由来，故选D。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“asking everyone to shoot for 10,000 steps each day could be harmful to the elderly or those with medical conditions”(要求每个人每天走一万步可能对老年人或有疾病的人有害)和“those with shorter legs have an easier time hitting the 10,000-step goal because they have to take more steps than people with longer legs to cover the distance. It seems that 10,000 steps may be suitable for the latter.”(那些腿短的人更容易达到10000步的目标，因为他们需要比腿长的人走更多的步来完成这段距离。10,000步似乎适合后者。)可知每天一万步法则适合健康的长腿的人，故选C。
【11题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段“Researchers found that women who took 4,400 steps per day were about 40% less likely to die during a follow-up period of just over four years”(研究人员发现，在四年多的随访期间，每天走4400步的女性死亡的可能性要低40%)可知，研究人员建议老年人每天走4400步，这样可以帮助她们保持健康和延年益寿。故选A。
D
Plastic is piling up in ecosystems all over the world. Although its harmful impacts on both species and ecosystems have been documented, a few animals—like bowerbirds and hermit crabs—are doing what they can to recycle it. And according to a recent study, wild bees in Canada have joined the effort, which is a rare observation of behavioral flexibility in species especially insects, in increasingly plastic-rich environments.
The researchers found two species of leafcutter bees putting plastic into their nests. One of the bees they studied, the alfalfa leafcutter bee, normally bites off pieces of leaves and flowers while the second bee gathers sticky substances from trees. Leafcutter bees don't build big nests or store honey like honeybees, choosing instead small nests in underground holes, tree holes or cracks （裂缝）in buildings. But the researchers found that three of eight brood cells（育雏巢室）contained pieces of plastic bags, replacing 23 percent of the cut leaves in each cell on average.
While they don't make honey, alfalfa leafcutter bees still make money for the U. S. and Canadian farmers by pollinating（给......传授花粉）crops including alfalfa , carrots and melons. The European insects were introduced to North America in the 1930s for that purpose, and they've since become wild, joining the continent's many native species of leafcutter bees.
In a separate study conducted in Argentina between 2017 and 2018, researchers found a bee nest made entirely of plastic, which consisted of three separate cells. It's the first known example of such construction worldwide. Compared to the other nests the researchers examined, which were made of natural materials, this one had a pretty lower success rate of the bees' survival. One of the cells had a dead baby bee , another seemed to have housed an adult that had left the nest, and the third was unfinished.
12. What does the animals' use of plastic show according to the study?
A. How widely plastic is used.
B. How strange the behavior of wildlife is.
C. How some wildlife is adapting to plastic.
D. How plastic pollution has harmed them.
13 What do leaves mean to alfalfa leafcutter bees?
A. Food. B. Shelter.
C A plastic substitute. D. Traditional nest materials.
14. Which is one characteristic of leafcutter bees?
A. They have great economic value.
B. They store honey like honeybees.
C. They prefer to live in tree holes.
D. They have evolved into a new species.
15. What was the nest made entirely of plastic like?
A. It might be warmer. B. It might be unhealthy.
C. It might be easy to finish. D. It might be recyclable.
【答案】12. C 13. D 14. A 15. B
【解析】
【分析】本文是说明文。研究发现，有些动物尤其是昆虫开始回收利用塑料。切叶蜂用塑料取代传统的树叶碎片搭建蜂巢。研究人员还发现完全用塑料搭建的蜂巢里的蜜蜂存活率要低得多。
【12题详解】
推理判断题。第一段中提到“a few animals…are doing what they can to recycle it.（一些动物正在尽其所能地回收它。）”“according to a recent study, wild bees in Canada have joined the effort, which is a rare observation of behavioral flexibility in species especially insects, in increasingly plastic-rich environments.（根据最近的一项研究，加拿大的野蜂也加入了这项努力，这是一项罕见的发现，说明了在塑料越来越多的环境中，有些物种尤其是昆虫的行为适应性。）”由此可以推断，有些动物尤其是昆虫开始回收利用塑料的行为是有些野生动物行为适应性的表现，它们正在适应现在塑料越来越多的环境。故选C项。
【13题详解】
推理判断题。第二段中提到“the alfalfa leafcutter bee, normally bites off pieces of leaves and flowers（苜蓿切叶蜂通常会咬下树叶和花朵的碎片）”和“three of eight brood cells（育雏巢室）contained pieces of plastic bags, replacing 23 percent of the cut leaves in each cell on average.（八个有幼蜂的蜂巢中有三个含有塑料袋碎片，每一个蜂巢中（塑料袋碎片）平均取代了23%的切碎的树叶。）”由此可以推断，对于苜蓿切叶蜂来说，树叶是它们传统的搭建蜂巢的材料。故选D项。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。第三段中提到“While they don't make honey, alfalfa leafcutter bees still make money for the U. S. and Canadian farmers by pollinating（给......传授花粉）crops including alfalfa , carrots and melons. （虽然他们不酿蜜，但是苜蓿切叶蜂通过给包括紫花苜蓿、胡萝卜和西瓜等农作物传授花粉，为美国和加拿大的农民赚钱。）”由此可知，切叶蜂的一个特点是它们有很大的经济价值。故选A项。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段中“Compared to the other nests the researchers examined, which were made of natural materials , this one had a pretty lower success rate of the bees' survival. （与研究人员检查过的其他用天然材料搭建的蜂巢相比，这种蜂巢中的蜜蜂存活成功率要低得多。）”可以推断，完全用塑料材料搭建的蜂巢可能不是很健康，不利于蜜蜂的存活。故选B项。
第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）
根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
How to think outside the box
Being open to dissenting（持异议的）opinions is not the only way to think outside the box. ___16___
A break in our everyday life may provide the force needed to shift the direction of our thinking. So we can change environments. ___17___ ，for example, reorganizing our desk or taking a new route to work. However, for others , bigger changes such as a new job or a marriage are required,
A famous concept is approaching routine situations as if we met or saw them for the first time. In other words, we should look at them as if we'd never seen them. ____18____ For instance, when we brush our teeth, take a moment to look at the toothbrush as if we never laid eyes on such an object and noticed its color and shape. Think about the flavor of the toothpaste and notice how our mouth feels as we move the brush back and forth.
___19___. The mere presence of a group of people with diverse experiences, views and backgrounds in our everyday life creates an atmosphere in which people can better respond to change. Why? Because they are key drivers of the development of new ideas and solutions.
Unlike negative emotions (情感）that cause specific reactions(for example, fear drives us to flee) ,positive emotions help us broaden our attention, explore our environment, and open ourselves to absorbing information.
___20___. They can be those that are going well or for which we are grateful. This shifting — into — positivity process will automatically brighten our mood—and free our brain.
A. It's also helpful to seek for the difference
B. For some people, small changes might work
C. We should show respect for different cultures too
D Some small techniques could help broaden the way we think
E. Take a few moments to think about the beautiful things in our life

【解析】
【分析】这是一篇议论文。文章主要介绍了几个可以帮助拓宽思维方式的技巧。
【16题详解】
空前提到“对持异议的观点保持开放的态度不是唯一一种创造性思考的方法”，D项“一些小技巧可以帮助拓宽我们的思维方式”承上启下，是说还有别的一些技巧，且D项中“techniques”与空前一句中“way”呼应。故选D项。
【17题详解】
空前提到“我们可以改变一下环境”，B项“对一些人来说，一些小的改变可能就起作用”呼应上文，都是关于改变，空后一句中“reorganizing our desk or taking a new route to work”是B项中“small changes”的具体内容；且B项与下文“However, for others , bigger changes such as a new job or a marriage are required.(然而，对另一些来说，需要大一点的改变比如一份新工作或者婚姻)”形成对比。故选B项。
【18题详解】
空前提到“换句话说，我们应该像从未见过它们一样，来看待它们”，G项“尽管我们可能有一些知识，‘初识者’思维允许我们对经历保持开放的态度”，是说明空前提到的方法的好处，空后内容是对G项中的“Beginners' mind”进行举例说明，上下文衔接紧密，故选G项。
【19题详解】
空处位于句首，是段落主题句，根据本段内容“diverse experiences, views and backgrounds”及“Because they are key drivers of the development of new ideas and solutions.(因为它们是新思想和解决办法发展的关键驱动因素)”可知，本段主要说差异的好处，所以A项“寻找差异也有帮助”切题。故选A项。
【20题详解】
根据空后“它们可以是那些进展良好或者我们所感激的事情”可知，E项“花一些时间来考虑生活中美好的事情”切题，空后的They指代E项中“the beautiful things”，故选E项。

【解析】
【分析】这是一篇说明文。描述了关于不同南极点的现象。
【详解】1.考查名词。句意：他们中没有一个确切符合上述的描述。谓语动词fits后应用名词作宾语，前文对南极点的描述只有一个，用名词单数，故填description。
2.考查现在分词。句意：如果你认为地球是一个不断旋转的篮球，在一根手指的指尖上维持平衡，手指和球接触得地方就是被叫做地理南极点的地方。名词basketball前应用定语修饰，spin（旋转）和逻辑主语basketball构成主动关系，所以用现在分词，故填spinning。
3.考查名词性从句和语态。句意：如果你认为地球是一个不断旋转的篮球，在一根手指的指尖上维持平衡，手指和球接触得地方就是被叫做地理南极点的地方。what引导的从句在be动词之后，是表语从句，属于名词性从句，名词性从句中缺少谓语动词，what指代the place，和动词call构成被动关系，根据“touches”可知时态为一般现在时，故填is called。
4.考查to do不定式。句意：那里没有挂着旗帜的杆子，只有一个树枝和一个标志用以纪念在1911年到达这个地点的第一批探险者。当名词被the first修饰时，后置定语用to do不定式，故填to reach。
5.考查冠词。句意：和地理上的南极点的近距离是一个仪式性的南极点，这是一个带有一些国家的旗帜的真实的杆子。根据破折号可知，这是a ceremonial South Pole的同位语，所以是泛指，actual的发音以元音音素开头，故填an。
6.考查固定搭配和介词。句意：一个指南针会向你指出的南极点。which引导的定语从句中，which指代the South Pole，point sb to/toward(s)意为“向某人指出……”，故填to/toward(s)。
7.考查状语从句。句意：靠得如此的北以至于它甚至不再南极圈里。so...that...意为“如此...以至于”，故填that。
8.考查副词。句意：远洋磁南极自然没有被标记，但是如果你碰巧去了那里，你就会注意到：你的指南针无目的地移动。修饰动词unmarked应用副词，故填naturally。
9.考查时态。句意：远洋磁南极自然没有被标记，但是如果你碰巧去了那里，你就会注意到：你的指南针无目的地移动。在条件状语从句中，主将从现，所以根据if you happen to be there可知，主句用一般将来时，故填will notice。
10.考查最高级。句意：仍然存在另一个南极点：难以接近的极点，被定义为南极最远离任何海岸的地方。在三个或三个以上的范围中，定冠词the后用形容词或副词的最高级，故填farthest。
第三部分写作（共两节，满分35分）
第一节短文改错（共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分）

2.只允许修改10处，多者(从第11处起)不计分。
The mascot(吉祥物) of the 2022 Winter Olympic Games official made its public appearance on Tuesday. It was a cartoon character inspired by giant pandas. The smiling panda is named with Bing DwenDwen in Chinese. Color circles around its face symbolize skating tracks and 5G technology. Bing, Chinese word for “ice”, shows purity and strength, but DwenDwen means sincerity, liveliness and health — also characteristics of pandas. Perhaps pandas are the animals most easily recognizing by us in China. The mascot combines our traditional culture and how pandas look like with winter sports elements. The image shows our great expect of the Games and that our Chinese welcome the world.
【答案】第一处：official→ officially
第二处：was→ is
第三处：去掉with
第四处： Color→ Colorful
第五处：Chinese word前加the
第六处：but→ and
第七处：recognizing→ recognized
第八处：how→ what
第九处：expect→ expectation
第十处：our→ we
【解析】
【分析】本文是一篇新闻报道，介绍了2022年冬奥会吉祥物“冰纷纷”在本周二正式公开亮相。
【详解】第一处：考查副词。句意：本周二，2022年冬奥会吉祥物正式公开亮相。修饰动词短语made its public appearance用副词，故official改为officially。
第二处：考查时态。句意：它是一个灵感来源于大熊猫的卡通形象。吉祥物的灵感来源是客观事实，应该用一般现在时，故was改为is。
第三处：考查name作动词的用法。句意：这只微笑的大熊猫中文名字叫冰纷纷。sb/sth is named...表示“某人/物叫作……”，with是多余的，故去掉with。
第四处：考查形容词。句意：它脸上彩色的圆圈象征着滑冰跑道和5G技术。修饰名词circles用形容词，故Color改为Colorful。
第五处：考查定冠词。句意：“冰”的中文意思是“冰”，它显示了纯洁和力量，“纷纷”的意思是真诚、活泼和健康——这也是熊猫的特点。word是可数名词，此处特指“冰”这个字，故Chinese word前加the。
第六处：考查连词。句意同上，根据句意可知前后是并列而非转折关系，故but改为and。

第七处：考查非谓语动词。句意：也许大熊猫是中国最容易被我们认出来的动物。animals与recognize之间是逻辑上的动宾关系，表示被动，用过去分词作后置定语，故recognizing改为recognized。
第八处：考查宾语从句。句意：这个吉祥物把我们的传统文化、熊猫的样子和冬季运动的元素结合了起来。此处为宾语从句，从句中的look like缺少宾语，故how改为what。
第九处：考查名词。句意：这个形象显示了我们对冬奥会的殷切期望，也表明了我们中国人对世界的欢迎。作动词shows的宾语用名词，表示抽象意义，不可数，故expect改为expectation。
第十处：考查代词。句意同上。此处在句中作主语，应该用代词的主格形式，故our改为we。

2. 提出建议；
3. 解释原因。

【答案】Dear Sir or Madam,
I’m Li Hua, an exchange student studying in our school. Knowing that you’re planning to start some school clubs about Chinese culture, I’m writing and trying to make a suggestion.
Although there exist all kinds of school clubs, none of them focuses on traditional Chinese culture. My suggestion is that a Chinese painting club should be established. For one reason, Chinese painting is a form of art with a long history, which stands for the civilization of ancient China. For another, the club may appeal to more members — not only Chinese students, but also other students, because there is no language barrier to appreciate art.
I would be grateful for your taking my advice into good consideration. Looking forward to hearing from you.
Sincerely,
Li Hua
