How do you prefer to sleep, on the back or on your side? Here are some interesting sleeping positions. ____23____ This sleeping position is kind of strange, but very common. It’s when you sleep on your back with your arms down and very close to your body. Studies have shown that people who sleep like this may be quieter. It is actually a good sleeping position, as it helps keep your spine (脊柱) in a straight line.  ____24____ Position   Do you like to sleep on your belly, but experience problems oftentimes? The position might not help you. It can make your neck uncomfortable. But if this is how you like to sleep, you might consider using a very soft cooling pillow to keep your neck comfortable. ____25____ If this sleeping position is not familiar to you, you should know that at least 7% of the world’s population sleep that way. In this position, you have your hands on or around your pillow, with your head turned to one side. But it may create a twist (扭伤) in the neck. Some studies suggest that generally you’ re a social person if you like to sleep in this position.  A．Sleeping on Your BellyB．FreefallC．SoldierD．Starfish  四、阅读单选Jeremiah’s MistakeJeremiah hurried into the kitchen and washed his hands. He had exactly one hour until his father got home. He wasn’t used to starting dinner this early. On his nights to cook, Jeremiah generally got dinner ready in fifteen minutes. But Dad always praised Jeremiah’s meals, no matter how simple they were. “Delicious!” he would say. But Jeremiah knew Dad liked more complicated (复杂的) dishes, because on Dad’s nights to cook, he used a ton of ingredients. Dad was a natural cook. Not Jeremiah-at least, not until tonight. It was Dad’s birthday, and for once in his life, Jeremiah was cooking something complicated: spaghetti with homemade sauce (酱). He’d eaten it a million times, so he knew most of the ingredients. “Tomatoes, onions, garlic, beef,” he thought, looking through the fridge. They had everything except the beef. No problem—they’d go vegetarian tonight. Jeremiah cut up the vegetables with Dad’s special knife and put them into the pot. Then he turned to Dad’s spice(香料) collection. He picked a few familiar ones and put them in. The pleasing smell of fresh tomatoes amazed him. He tasted it just as Dad usually did. It was terrible! Way too spicy. Aha! A lime would cool things down. He added in as much lime juice as he could. One more taste. Ugh. It was awful! Now the sauce was sour and spicy. He left the kitchen and went into his room. He could at least order pizza, so Dad wouldn’t have to stay hungry on his own birthday. As he counted his money, he heard the front door open. “Hi, Jeremiah!” Dad called. “Coming.”Jeremiah returned to the kitchen, where he found Dad digging through the food cupboard. “I’m buying pizza,” Jeremiah said. “It’s not much of a birthday dinner...”Dad turned, holding a bag of chips and a bowl of Jeremiah’s spaghetti sauce. “We don’t need pizza!” Dad smiled. “This delicious salsa(萨尔萨辣酱) is a meal in itself!”26．Why did Jeremiah decide to cook something complicated?A．Because it was his dad’s birthday. B．Because his dad told him to do so.C．Because he arrived home early. D．Because he was a natural cook.27．Jeremiah thought the sauce he made was ________.A．neither sour nor spicy enough B．different from what he had expectedC．simple but healthy D．as delicious as he had imagined28．What can we learn about Jeremiah’s father?A．He takes his job seriously. B．He is creative and strict.C．He expects his son to be skillful. D．He is loving and encouraging. Why Do Top Athletes Choke Under Pressure?According to classic economic theory, the higher the reward, the better the expected performance. As a result, we could expect the best performance at the most important moments. But why do we so often see the most talented and experienced athletes perform much worse than expected in important competitions like the Olympics?Why the Drop in Performance?It is not necessarily true that there’s a direct relationship between incentives (激励) and achievement. Research has shown that increased motivation (动机) beyond a certain level harms an athlete’s performance. We call this phenomenon “choking under pressure”. Greater incentives may lead to higher levels of arousal (兴奋). The relationship between performance and arousal looks like an inverted U shape (倒U形), meaning that performance is the best at certain levels of arousal and drops with over-arousal. The desire to perform as well as possible is thought to create performance pressure. Many studies have shown increased pressure has a bad effect on athletes’ performance in skill-based games. When people overthink or consciously monitor each step, the drop in performance happens.        2     Beyond the pressure coming from the important competitions, another thing that may add pressure is the level of expectations. An experiment suggested high audience expectations harm performance in a skill-based task. For example, one of the most famous biathletes in history, Martin Fourcade, said it was very emotional for him to compete in his home country and also much harder than competing abroad because of greater expectations. We tested this home disadvantage by using data from biathlon (冬季两项) competitions over 17 years. We have found the most titled athletes miss a lot more shots when competing in their home country compared to when they compete abroad. The most reasonable explanation likely relates to the level of expectations from the homeland. How to Deal with It?There are several ways to reduce stress, such as a countdown or taking a deep breath before the task. But the base for any solution is to realize that stress affects performance. Choking under pressure can happen to the best athletes and it’s not a shame to admit it. The more athletes know about the effect pressure can have on them, the more likely they are to succeed at the highest level.29．What can we learn from “choking under pressure”?A．The higher the reward, the better the expected performance.B．Better achievement in games results from a drop in pressure.C．Arousal beyond a certain level harms an athlete’s performance.D．Athletes’ performance in games has something to do with their training.30．Which of the following would be the best heading for Paragraph 4 and 5?A．Pressure as a Key to Improving Performance.B．Pressure as a Push for Becoming Top-level Athletes.C．High Expectations as a Cause of Choking Under Pressure.D．High Expectations as an Incentive to Compete in the Home Country.31．To deal with pressure, the athletes should first ________.A．avoid the possible feelings of pressureB．share their worries with friends and coachesC．try their best to succeed at the highest levelD．recognize the effect of stress on performance Nowadays, the online world is nearly as important as the real one. It is not uncommon to see the whole Internet bands together to “cancel” someone after they make a mistake, which is called Cancel Culture. It can result in a person, if famous, losing fans and having to face attacks online. Even a normal person faces risks of losing their jobs or personal relationships. While stepping foot on any social media platform, everyone including young children can fall victim to it. Cancel Culture is a lose-lose situation. The person being canceled has to stand the negative effects of the Internet, and the people doing the canceling are contributing to (促成) the mindset that it’s okay to do this to people they don’t know. Young kids may not understand or contribute completely to Cancel Culture, but by simply being on the Internet, they can see it firsthand, affecting their real lives. A New York Metro Parents article describes one girl who was canceled in school the same way people are canceled on the Internet, and her friends wouldn’t even talk to or look at her. Dr. Pam Rultledge, a media psychologist, explains in her blog post that Cancel Culture discourages kids from expressing their opinions and standing up for others. It’s always an “us against them” mindset; anyone agreeing with the person being canceled is at risk of being left out online too. So again I ask, what is this teaching our kids? That they aren’t allowed to make mistakes? That they have to be perfect? This may be the current narrative, but it shouldn’t be. Everyone messes up at some point, especially young children. They shouldn’t be publicly punished for it and not given the chance to change people’s minds. Forgiveness is an important skill kids need to learn, and Cancel Culture is encouraging the opposite. One small mistake doesn’t make someone a bad person, but Cancel Culture makes them feel as if they are. Cancel Culture doesn’t have to exist. We make it exist. And just as easily, we can make it disappear by contributing to an online world full of praise and love.32．The underlined words “fall victim to” in Paragraph 1 probably mean “________”.A．be attracted to B．get used to C．be shocked by D．get hurt by33．Why does the writer mention the New York Metro Parents article in Paragraph 2?A．To explain why Cancel Culture does harm to children’s friendships.B．To stress the importance of close relationships with friends for students.C．To show how Cancel Culture has exercised influence on kids’ real lives.D．To suggest possible ways of changing the habit of overusing the Internet.34．In Cancel Culture, a person who makes mistakes will be ________.A．comforted with great patience B．left out and publicly punishedC．taught how to correct the mistakes D．blocked from using the Internet again35．By saying “This may be the current narrative, but it shouldn’t be” in Paragraph 4,the writer wants to express that Cancel Culture ________.A．is easy to change B．has a two-sided natureC．is supposed to be canceled D．stops mistakes from being repeated  五、阅读回答问题Father of hybrid rice—Yuan Longping Yuan Longping is China’s “Father of hybrid rice (杂交水稻之父)”. This November, he and his team set a new record. They grew a new kind of hybrid rice called “Sanyou No 1”. Its yield (产量) can reach 1,500 kg per mu. That means a 1-mu field can feed five people!Yuan is 90 years old in 2020. When he was young, he saw lots of Chinese people starving (挨饿). He has tried hard to make sure everyone has enough to eat. To get closer to this goal, he grew hybrid rice. Hybrid rice is very important for China. About one-fifth of the world’s people live in China. But China only has less than 9 percent of the world’s land. So the rice grown in China has to have a big yield. It has to have more grains (稻粒) in each plant. Its grains have to be bigger. It has to be strong so we can grow it in deserts, mountains, and snowy villages. Hybrid rice can take in water and nutrition (营养) from the ground better than other rice. It can take in sunlight better as well. All of these things help it grow bigger and taller. Its annual yield (年产量) is about 20 percent higher than that of other rice. “I had a dream. In my dream, rice plants grow as tall as sorghum (高粱), each ear of rice (稻穗) is as big as a broom, and each grain of rice is as huge as a peanut,” Yuan once said. Isn’t that wonderful? Maybe the scientist’s dream will come true someday. Rice in the desertHybrid rice can grow in different places and kinds of weather. Believe it or not, it can even grow in the desert. In 2018, Yuan’s team brought some hybrid rice plants to Dubai (迪拜). Dubai is sandy and windy. The water there is salty. In daytime, the temperature (温度) can reach 50 ℃. But it falls to 20 ℃ at night. Common rice can’t grow there. But hybrid rice can. The Dubai hybrid rice had a yield of 500 kg per mu. The desert could be turned into a rice field!Hybrid rice can grow in Tibet, too. It is the “roof of the world (世界屋脊)”. It’s high and cold. “Father of hybrid rice” Yuan Longping passed away at 13:07 pm in Changsha of Hunan province. He has helped save not only China but also the world from starvation. When hundreds and thousands of people around the world were suffering from hunger, the hybrid rice was grown on a large scale in other countries, raising output and helping pull them out of hunger. He is a hero.36．Why did Yuan longping grow hybrid rice?________________________________37．Why is Hybrid rice very important for China?________________________________38．Where can Hybrid rice can grow?________________________________39．What do you think of Yuan Longping?Why?________________________________  六、材料作文40．从下面两个题目中任选一题，根据中文和英文提示，完成一篇不少于50词的文段写作。文中已给出内容不计入总词数。所给提示词语仅供选用。请不要写出你的班级和真人姓名。北京拥有众多的名胜风景，一个公园、一处王府、一所博物馆……都拥有着悠久的历史和丰富的文化。假设你是李华，本周末学校英语俱乐部要召开“线上云游北京”的活动，你打算介绍一个北京的著名景点。请你介绍这个景点的地理位置和特点信息，吸引更多的同学们来了解它、认识它。提示词语：famous, history, traditional, culture, treasure...提示问题：● Where is it?● What is special about it?___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________41．星河曙天，彩云当归，举世瞩目，英雄回家。2022年4月16日，神州十三号载人飞船返回舱成功着陆。“太空出差三人组”在空间站组合体工作生活了183天，刷新了中国航天员单次飞行任务太空驻留时间的记录。本学期学校开展“见字如面——对话航天英雄”学科活动，请你根据以下材料，写一篇作文，同时表达你对三位航天英雄的敬意。材料/提示词语：提示问题：How long did they stay in the Space Station?
