【1题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段第一句“Located on Darling Harbour in the heart of Sydney, SEA LIFE Sydney Aquarium welcomes millions of explorers yearly. (悉尼海洋生物水族馆位于悉尼市中心的达令港，每年都会迎来数百万的探险者。)”可知，悉尼海洋生物水族馆是一个位于悉尼市中心的热门旅游景点。故选A。
【2题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段下文详细介绍的第三点“Behind the Scenes tours to inspire ocean biologists of the future and team up with our expert guides to go deep behind the scenes and discover our creatures’ secrets.(幕后之旅旨在激励未来的海洋生物学家，并与我们的专家导游一起深入幕后，发现我们生物的秘密。)”可知，在悉尼海洋生物水族馆，游客可以探索海洋生物的奥秘。故选D。
【3题详解】
细节理解题。根据“Tickets/Admissions”下文详细介绍第一段中“All persons entering it must pay for admission or hold a valid (有效的) ticket, children under 3 free of charge. No child under 12 will be admitted to an attraction unless accompanied by an adult aged 18 years or over.(所有进入的人必须支付门票或持有有效门票，3岁以下儿童免费。12岁以下儿童不得进入景点，除非有18岁或以上成年人陪同。)”以及第二段“Tickets are priced at $50 in our physical box offices. When you buy tickets online in advance, you’ll save up to 20% on admission and get to skip the lines with express mobile ticket entry.(门票在我们的实体售票处定价为50美元。如果你提前在网上购票，你可以节省高达20%的费用，还可以通过快速移动购票入口跳过排队。)”可知，提前网上购票可以优惠高达20%，即，支付原价的80%，由此可知，一对夫妇带12岁双胞胎的最低票价是$50*4*80%=$160。故选B。
B
“Can’t you take a picture of me?” I turned to my husband and couldn’t help asking him, at a loss why he didn’t volunteer to take my picture. We were on a long-planned, once-in-a-lifetime trip to Venice. I couldn’t stop taking pictures-263 so far. Everything was beautiful: the bright green water, the bridges topped with Venetians looking at their phones, the shining of sun or low-lying morning mist on water. I had to capture the joyful decorative beauty. My phone was packed with such pictures as I would never remove. My husband was not taking pictures. But we were walking along a particularly attractive canal(运河)in the sun. I had lots of my husband: wouldn’t it be nice to have a few of me? He helped happily, but I looked awkward. It showed 1 had to ask.
Men don’t take photos. At least most men don’t seem to take phone pictures the way women do. So I wonder why. On one level, my husband is right. Holding up your phone is an imperfect and inelegant way of capturing a place or a feeling. That is the classic criticism of the digital age: We are recording, not living. He is good at being in the moment and happy to simply enjoy it.
But I’m right too. Memory is unreliable: It is a story we construct for ourselves, not an objective truth. If I think about the year 2020, I remember fear, sadness and sitting at my desk seven days a week. But if 1 look through my pictures, it was all stupid family games, terrible haircuts and strange but lovely socially distant breakfasts. My phone’s camera is also a powerful corrective to my natural pessimism(悲观). My brain will probably regard 2022 as the permanent crisis, a time of global sadness and fear. But my pictures will tell a different but also true story: that perfect vegetable I grew; the sons I also grew. That is why I do it-if happiness doesn’t come naturally, sometimes you need to take its picture.
4. How did the author feel when she made the request to her husband?
A. Annoyed. B. Confused. C. Hopeless. D. Delighted.
5. What does the author want to show by telling their trip story?
A. Venice is a must-see attraction.
B. Her husband takes trips with her unwillingly.
C Many men dislike photographing while traveling.
D. Travel deepens the understanding between the couple.
6. In the husband’s eye, what matters most during a tour?
A. Appreciating the views. B. Sharing his feelings.
C. Taking photos of his wife. D. Having the views recorded.
7. Why does the author enjoy photographing?
A. To expose the truth. B. To overcome daily hardships.
C. To present her stories to others. D. To restore a sense of well-being.
【答案】4. A 5. C 6. A 7. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。文章主要讲述了作者和丈夫一个爱拍照，一个不爱拍照，而作者也认为这并没有什么对错，各有各的道理。
【4题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第一段“He helped happily, but I looked awkward. It showed 1 had to ask.(他很乐意帮忙，但我看起来很尴尬。这表明我不得不问。)”可推断，作者在请求丈夫为她拍照后，觉得自己很尴尬，不开心。故选A。
【5题详解】
推理判断题。文章第一段主要讲述了作者和丈夫一起旅游，她拍了很多照片，也为她丈夫拍了很多照片，然而她丈夫却不怎么拍照片。因此，作者发出第二段的感慨“Men don’t take photos. At least most men don’t seem to take phone pictures the way women do.(男人不拍照。至少大多数男人似乎不像女人那样用手机拍照。)”由此可推断出，作者提到自己和丈夫的旅游，是为了引出主题——男人在旅游时不喜欢拍照片。故选C。
【6题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第二段“On one level, my husband is right. Holding up your phone is an imperfect and inelegant way of capturing a place or a feeling. That is the classic criticism of the digital age: We are recording, not living. He is good at being in the moment and happy to simply enjoy it. (在某种程度上，我丈夫是对的。举着手机来捕捉一个地方或一种感觉是一种不完美、不优雅的方式。这是对数字时代的经典批评：我们是在记录，而不是生活。他擅长活在当下，享受当下。)”可知，作者的丈夫觉得活在当下最重要，而旅游的时候最重要的自然是欣赏美景。故选A。
【7题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章最后一段“My phone’s camera is also a powerful corrective to my natural pessimism（悲观）. My brain will probably regard 2022 as the permanent crisis, a time of global sadness and fear. But my pictures will tell a different but also true story: that perfect vegetable I grew; the sons I also grew. That is why I do it-if happiness doesn’t come naturally, sometimes you need to take its picture.(我手机的摄像头也有力地纠正了我天生的悲观情绪。我的大脑可能会把2022年视为一个永久性的危机，一个全球悲伤和恐惧的时刻。但我的照片将讲述一个不同但也是真实的故事：我种的完美蔬菜；还有我养大的儿子。这就是我这么做的原因——如果幸福不是自然而然来的，有时候你需要给它拍照。)”可知，作者喜欢拍照的原因是为了储存一些幸福感，以度过悲观的时刻。故选D。
C
The slogan of a University of Northern Iowa clothing exchange also serves as the perfect description of a fashion currently popular among students: thrifting-trading clothes with friends informally or through campus events and websites such as Swapstyle or at a thrift store.
Students are becoming increasingly vocal champions of this creative and commercial effort and the culture it represents. The act of thrifting is at the heart of the rise in students’ do-it-yourself (DIY) fashion shows and themed parties in which clothes must be handmade-composed of older, organic or recyclable items.
More broadly, the thrifting movement represents a generational switch built on five basic beliefs: old is new, mixing is far better than matching exchanging beats shopping, the best things in life are free (or incredibly cheap), and social responsibility is the new black.
According to recent campus and professional press reports, more students are thrifting so they can remain fashionable during the economic downturn.
They are giving up brand loyalty. They are also increasingly unwilling or unable to buy things at full price. Instead, they are seeking discounted ways to stand out stylistically, including making certain classic clothes the next big things.
“It’s often hard to find two of the same clothing items in a thrift store. You can leave knowing that the special outfit you are getting for your major event, no one will have,” Saint Xavier University rising senior Sydney Bennett confirms. “Because a lot of the items in thrift stores are classic, you will have a chance to showcase a ‘recycled style’ that is just like new for our generation.”
To this end, Bennett calls thrifting “a treasure hunt and shopping experience rolled into one ”.
8. Which item of the following will disqualify you for DIY fashion shows?
A. A newly-bought dress. B. A pair of washed-out jeans.
C. An out-dated sweater. D. A second-hand cotton jacket.
9. What do we know about the thrifting movement?
A. It’ll damage economy. B. It’s a temporary success.
C. It was started by the government. D. It reflects a change in philosophy of life.
10. What’s the advantage of thrifting in thrift stores according to Bennett?
A. Getting anything for nothing. B. Staying loyal to the brand.
C. Seeking out unique items. D. Buying as many clothes as possible.
11. What’s the purpose of writing this passage?
A. To evaluate a rule. B. To clarify a concept.
C. To introduce a new trend. D. To recommend a way of life.
【答案】8. A 9. D 10. C 11. C
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了北爱荷华大学、服装交易所的口号也完美地描述了目前在学生中流行的一种时尚：与朋友非正式地或通过校园活动和Swapstyle等网站或在旧货店交换衣服。文章主要介绍了这种“节俭运动”以及其发展情况。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“The act of thrifting is at the heart of the rise in students’ do-it-yourself (DIY) fashion shows and themed parties in which clothes must be handmade-composed of older, organic or recyclable items.(节俭的行为是越来越多的学生自己动手(DIY)时装秀和主题派对的核心，在这些派对上，衣服必须是手工制作的——由旧的、有机的或可回收的物品组成)”可知，新买的裙子会让你失去参加DIY时装秀的资格。故选A。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“More broadly, the thrifting movement represents a generational switch built on five basic beliefs: old is new, mixing is far better than matching exchanging beats shopping, the best things in life are free (or incredibly cheap), and social responsibility is the new black.(更广泛地说，节俭运动代表了建立在五个基本信念基础上的代际转换：旧即新，混搭远比搭配好，交换胜过购物，生活中最好的东西是免费的（或便宜得令人难以置信），社会责任是新的潮流)”可知，节俭运动反映了生活哲学的变化。故选D。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中“Because a lot of the items in thrift stores are classic, you will have a chance to showcase a ‘recycled style’ that is just like new for our generation.(因为旧货店的很多商品都是经典款，你将有机会展示一种‘回收风格’，对我们这一代人来说就像新的一样)”可知，根据班尼特的说法，在旧货店节俭的好处是寻找独特的物品。故选C。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段“The slogan of a University of Northern Iowa clothing exchange also serves as the perfect description of a fashion currently popular among students: thrifting-trading clothes with friends informally or through campus events and websites such as Swapstyle or at a thrift store.(北爱荷华大学服装交易所的口号也完美地描述了目前在学生中流行的一种时尚：与朋友非正式地或通过校园活动和Swapstyle等网站或在旧货店交换衣服)”以及第四段“According to recent campus and professional press reports, more students are thrifting so they can remain fashionable during the economic downturn.(根据最近的校园和专业媒体报道，越来越多的学生开始节俭，以便在经济低迷时期保持时尚)”结合文章主要介绍了这种“节俭运动”以及其发展情况可推知，这篇文章的目的是介绍一种新趋势。故选C。
D
Exercising with a friend is more motivating than going unaccompanied, according to new research. It also suggests interacting with active people can influence the sedentary to become more active.
The research was developed by a team led by Ensela Mema, PhD from Kean University in New Jersey. According to the researchers, the 2018 U.S. Department of Health and Human Services guidelines recommending the types and amounts of physical activity haven’t inspired much improvement in daily exercise routines.
So, Mema and other researchers looked at previous research showing social interactions with contemporaries can play a key role in promoting physical activity within a community. They developed a mathematical model simulating how social interactions can affect a population’s exercise trends over time.
Using data from the U.S. Military Academy, the simulations showed populations with decreasing physical activity and sedentary behavior-always sitting and rarely moving-were most common in the absence of social interactions. However, when simulations included social interactions between sedentary and active people, they became more physically active in the long term.
“We have traditionally directed physical activity interventions by engaging sedentary individuals to become more active,” Mema said. “Our model suggests that focusing on the active population to sustain their activity and increasing their interactions with sedentary people could stimulate higher levels of overall physical activity in the population.”
Experts say there’s not only an increased level of enjoyment with group exercise, there’s also accountability, making it more likely that people show up and get results. Depending on the individual’s personality, expectations, experience, and motivation, everyone can respond differently and uniquely to a more social exercise environment. Some individuals are more internally accountable, where they will never miss a commitment they make to themselves, and others are more externally accountable, where they are more likely to exercise when they have an external accountability system.
Whereas some individuals may feel competitive, that sense of competition can be friendly or serious. Others can compare themselves with others, which can either lower or increase confidence depending on the context.
12. What do the underlined words “the sedentary” in paragraph 1 refer to?
A. Sporty persons. B. Inactive individuals.
C. Energetic youths. D. Unconfident singles.
13. What may be the problem with the 2018 guidelines about physical activity?
A. They lacked necessary factual basis.
B. They were targeted at residents in communities.
C. Too many ways of exercise were recommended.
D. Social interactions’ effect on exercise wasn’t considered.
14. What did experts explain in paragraph 6?
A. Why group exercise is effective.
B. How to engage more people to exercise.
C. Why overall physical activity contributes to health.
D. How traditional interventions inspire people to be competitive.
15. Which can be a suitable title for the text?
A. Exercise More, Sit Less
B. Doing Workouts with a Partner Works
C. Communicating with People Benefits Your Health
D. Social Exercise Environment Strengthens Competitiveness
【答案】12. B 13. D 14. A 15. C
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了研究表明与活跃的人交流可以影响不活跃的人变得更活跃。文章介绍了研究开展的过程以及发现，专家表示，群体运动不仅能增加乐趣，还能增强责任感，让人们更有可能参与进来并取得成果。
【12题详解】
词句猜测题。根据画线词上文“Exercising with a friend is more motivating than going unaccompanied, according to new research.(最新研究显示，和朋友一起锻炼比独自锻炼更有动力)”以及“It also suggests interacting with active people can influence”以及后文“to become more active”可知，最新研究显示，和朋友一起锻炼比独自锻炼更有动力。研究还表明，与活跃的人交流可以影响不活跃的人变得更活跃。故画线词意思是“不活跃的个体”。故选B。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“According to the researchers, the 2018 U.S. Department of Health and Human Services guidelines recommending the types and amounts of physical activity haven’t inspired much improvement in daily exercise routines.(研究人员表示，2018年美国卫生与公众服务部指导方针建议了体育活动的类型和数量，但并没有对日常锻炼产生太大改善)”以及第三段“So, Mema and other researchers looked at previous research showing social interactions with contemporaries can play a key role in promoting physical activity within a community. They developed a mathematical model simulating how social interactions can affect a population’s exercise trends over time.(因此，Mema和其他研究人员查看了之前的研究，这些研究表明，与同时代人的社交互动在促进社区内的体育活动方面发挥了关键作用。他们开发了一个数学模型，模拟社会互动如何随着时间的推移影响人们的运动趋势)”可知，2018年关于体育活动的指导方针可能存在的问题是没有考虑社会互动对锻炼的影响。故选D。
【14题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第六段“Experts say there’s not only an increased level of enjoyment with group exercise, there’s also accountability, making it more likely that people show up and get results. Depending on the individual’s personality, expectations, experience, and motivation, everyone can respond differently and uniquely to a more social exercise environment. Some individuals are more internally accountable, where they will never miss a commitment they make to themselves, and others are more externally accountable, where they are more likely to exercise when they have an external accountability system.(专家表示，群体运动不仅能增加乐趣，还能增强责任感，让人们更有可能参与进来并取得成果。根据个人的个性、期望、经验和动机，每个人都可以对更社会化的锻炼环境做出不同和独特的反应。有些人对内更负责任，他们永远不会错过对自己做出的承诺，而另一些人对外更负责任，当他们有一个外部问责系统时，他们更有可能锻炼)”可知，专家在第6段中解释了为什么群体运动是有效的。故选A。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段“Exercising with a friend is more motivating than going unaccompanied, according to new research. It also suggests interacting with active people can influence the sedentary to become more active.(最新研究显示，和朋友一起锻炼比独自锻炼更有动力。研究还表明，与活跃的人交流可以影响久坐的人变得更活跃)”结合文章主要说明了研究表明与活跃的人交流可以影响不活跃的人变得更活跃。文章介绍了研究开展的过程以及发现，专家表示，群体运动不仅能增加乐趣，还能增强责任感，让人们更有可能参与进来并取得成果。可知，C选项“与人交流有益于健康”最符合文章标题。故选C。

47. 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
David was a windsurfer, who was serious and hardworking. He dreamed of becoming a city champion of the annual Teenager Windsurfing Race. To achieve it, he barely missed a single game or practice whatever the weather. After months of intense training, the big day finally arrived!
The beach was crowded with the excited audience, including reporters and photographers. The speaker system was announcing the names of the windsurfers, calling them to get ready for the race. And there was David, in a line with other windsurfers, all of them moving nervously up and down on the waves behind an imaginary starting line. They were all fighting for the best position to start and were tense as a result, ignoring the vast sea they were on.
The moment the starter’s signal sounded, David was off, so natural and quick. He pulled hard at his sail to race just ahead of the group. As he picked up speed, gliding (滑行) over the waves, he felt the familiar joy and freedom that windsurfing always gave him. What he loved was simply being out at sea. He could hardly stop himself from shouting out in excitement, rushing to the finishing line for the first.
“Go! David!” The wind carried over a familiar voice. He looked around and spotted his elder sister Jessica on her speedboat upwind of him cheering for him. She waved at David and he nodded his head in acknowledgement, even though he knew she was too far away to see him. Just as he turned away, however, out of the comer of his eye, he saw smoke behind the speedboat, on the shore. Knowing that the smoke could tell him the direction the wind was blowing, he decided to study it for a moment out of habit. Just as he was getting a better sense of how to use the wind to his advantage, he saw it.
注意：1．续写词数应为150左右；
2．请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Not just the smoke but a big fire!
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
The other windsurfers were far ahead of him at that time.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】
Not just the smoke but a big fire! David couldn’t believe his eyes. It occurred to him that it was from a restaurant where he once did a part-time job and that all the staff might be among the audience. He looked back at the beach, where all of the audience were too attentive to the race to be conscious of the fire. It was then that he made a resolution to turn around, passing by the other windsurfers and racing towards the shore, rather than the finishing line.
The other windsurfers were far ahead of him at that time. Apparently, this promising teenager had withdrawn the Race. Many confused people who noticed his strange behavior also spotted the shocking smoke and fire on the shore. The teenager rushed towards the fire, followed by many adults, including the staff. More hands made light work. They put out the fire before it was too late, minimizing the losses. Due to his contribution, the organizing committee awarded David the sportsmanship Award. All the audience applauded him for his acceptance speech: “I don’t regret losing the chance of becoming a champion to help others.”

【3题详解】

“Can’t you take a picture of me?” I turned to my husband and couldn’t help asking him, at a loss why he didn’t volunteer to take my picture. We were on a long-planned, once-in-a-lifetime trip to Venice. I couldn’t stop taking pictures-263 so far. Everything was beautiful: the bright green water, the bridges topped with Venetians looking at their phones, the shining of sun or low-lying morning mist on water. I had to capture the joyful decorative beauty. My phone was packed with such pictures as I would never remove. My husband was not taking pictures. But we were walking along a particularly attractive canal(运河)in the sun. I had lots of my husband: wouldn’t it be nice to have a few of me? He helped happily, but I looked awkward. It showed 1 had to ask.
Men don’t take photos. At least most men don’t seem to take phone pictures the way women do. So I wonder why. On one level, my husband is right. Holding up your phone is an imperfect and inelegant way of capturing a place or a feeling. That is the classic criticism of the digital age: We are recording, not living. He is good at being in the moment and happy to simply enjoy it.
But I’m right too. Memory is unreliable: It is a story we construct for ourselves, not an objective truth. If I think about the year 2020, I remember fear, sadness and sitting at my desk seven days a week. But if 1 look through my pictures, it was all stupid family games, terrible haircuts and strange but lovely socially distant breakfasts. My phone’s camera is also a powerful corrective to my natural pessimism(悲观). My brain will probably regard 2022 as the permanent crisis, a time of global sadness and fear.

【导语】本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。文章主要讲述了作者和丈夫一个爱拍照，一个不爱拍照，而作者也认为这并没有什么对错，各有各的道理。
【4题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第一段“He helped happily, but I looked awkward. It showed 1 had to ask.(他很乐意帮忙，但我看起来很尴尬。这表明我不得不问。)”可推断，作者在请求丈夫为她拍照后，觉得自己很尴尬，不开心。故选A。
【5题详解】
推理判断题。文章第一段主要讲述了作者和丈夫一起旅游，她拍了很多照片，也为她丈夫拍了很多照片，然而她丈夫却不怎么拍照片。因此，作者发出第二段的感慨“Men don’t take photos. At least most men don’t seem to take phone pictures the way women do.(男人不拍照。至少大多数男人似乎不像女人那样用手机拍照。)”由此可推断出，作者提到自己和丈夫的旅游，是为了引出主题——男人在旅游时不喜欢拍照片。故选C。
【6题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第二段“On one level, my husband is right. Holding up your phone is an imperfect and inelegant way of capturing a place or a feeling. That is the classic criticism of the digital age: We are recording, not living. He is good at being in the moment and happy to simply enjoy it. (在某种程度上，我丈夫是对的。举着手机来捕捉一个地方或一种感觉是一种不完美、不优雅的方式。这是对数字时代的经典批评：我们是在记录，而不是生活。他擅长活在当下，享受当下。)”可知，作者的丈夫觉得活在当下最重要，而旅游的时候最重要的自然是欣赏美景。故选A。
【7题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章最后一段“My phone’s camera is also a powerful corrective to my natural pessimism（悲观）. My brain will probably regard 2022 as the permanent crisis, a time of global sadness and fear. But my pictures will tell a different but also true story: that perfect vegetable I grew; the sons I also grew. That is why I do it-if happiness doesn’t come naturally, sometimes you need to take its picture.(我手机的摄像头也有力地纠正了我天生的悲观情绪。我的大脑可能会把2022年视为一个永久性的危机，一个全球悲伤和恐惧的时刻。但我的照片将讲述一个不同但也是真实的故事：我种的完美蔬菜；还有我养大的儿子。这就是我这么做的原因——如果幸福不是自然而然来的，有时候你需要给它拍照。)”可知，作者喜欢拍照的原因是为了储存一些幸福感，以度过悲观的时刻。故选D。
C
The slogan of a University of Northern Iowa clothing exchange also serves as the perfect description of a fashion currently popular among students: thrifting-trading clothes with friends informally or through campus events and websites such as Swapstyle or at a thrift store.
Students are becoming increasingly vocal champions of this creative and commercial effort and the culture it represents. The act of thrifting is at the heart of the rise in students’ do-it-yourself (DIY) fashion shows and themed parties in which clothes must be handmade-composed of older, organic or recyclable items.
More broadly, the thrifting movement represents a generational switch built on five basic beliefs: old is new, mixing is far better than matching exchanging beats shopping, the best things in life are free (or incredibly cheap), and social responsibility is the new black.
According to recent campus and professional press reports, more students are thrifting so they can remain fashionable during the economic downturn.
They are giving up brand loyalty. They are also increasingly unwilling or unable to buy things at full price. Instead, they are seeking discounted ways to stand out stylistically, including making certain classic clothes the next big things.
“It’s often hard to find two of the same clothing items in a thrift store. You can leave knowing that the special outfit you are getting for your major event, no one will have,” Saint Xavier University rising senior Sydney Bennett confirms. “Because a lot of the items in thrift stores are classic, you will have a chance to showcase a ‘recycled style’ that is just like new for our generation.”
To this end, Bennett calls thrifting “a treasure hunt and shopping experience rolled into one ”.
8. Which item of the following will disqualify you for DIY fashion shows?
A. A newly-bought dress. B. A pair of washed-out jeans.
C. An out-dated sweater. D. A second-hand cotton jacket.
9. What do we know about the thrifting movement?
A. It’ll damage economy. B. It’s a temporary success.
C. It was started by the government. D. It reflects a change in philosophy of life.
10. What’s the advantage of thrifting in thrift stores according to Bennett?
A. Getting anything for nothing. B. Staying loyal to the brand.
C. Seeking out unique items. D. Buying as many clothes as possible.
11. What’s the purpose of writing this passage?
A. To evaluate a rule. B. To clarify a concept.
C. To introduce a new trend. D. To recommend a way of life.
【答案】8. A 9. D 10. C 11. C
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了北爱荷华大学、服装交易所的口号也完美地描述了目前在学生中流行的一种时尚：与朋友非正式地或通过校园活动和Swapstyle等网站或在旧货店交换衣服。文章主要介绍了这种“节俭运动”以及其发展情况。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“The act of thrifting is at the heart of the rise in students’ do-it-yourself (DIY) fashion shows and themed parties in which clothes must be handmade-composed of older, organic or recyclable items.(节俭的行为是越来越多的学生自己动手(DIY)时装秀和主题派对的核心，在这些派对上，衣服必须是手工制作的——由旧的、有机的或可回收的物品组成)”可知，新买的裙子会让你失去参加DIY时装秀的资格。故选A。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“More broadly, the thrifting movement represents a generational switch built on five basic beliefs: old is new, mixing is far better than matching exchanging beats shopping, the best things in life are free (or incredibly cheap), and social responsibility is the new black.(更广泛地说，节俭运动代表了建立在五个基本信念基础上的代际转换：旧即新，混搭远比搭配好，交换胜过购物，生活中最好的东西是免费的（或便宜得令人难以置信），社会责任是新的潮流)”可知，节俭运动反映了生活哲学的变化。故选D。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中“Because a lot of the items in thrift stores are classic, you will have a chance to showcase a ‘recycled style’ that is just like new for our generation.(因为旧货店的很多商品都是经典款，你将有机会展示一种‘回收风格’，对我们这一代人来说就像新的一样)”可知，根据班尼特的说法，在旧货店节俭的好处是寻找独特的物品。故选C。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段“The slogan of a University of Northern Iowa clothing exchange also serves as the perfect description of a fashion currently popular among students: thrifting-trading clothes with friends informally or through campus events and websites such as Swapstyle or at a thrift store.(北爱荷华大学服装交易所的口号也完美地描述了目前在学生中流行的一种时尚：与朋友非正式地或通过校园活动和Swapstyle等网站或在旧货店交换衣服)”以及第四段“According to recent campus and professional press reports, more students are thrifting so they can remain fashionable during the economic downturn.(根据最近的校园和专业媒体报道，越来越多的学生开始节俭，以便在经济低迷时期保持时尚)”结合文章主要介绍了这种“节俭运动”以及其发展情况可推知，这篇文章的目的是介绍一种新趋势。故选C。
D
Exercising with a friend is more motivating than going unaccompanied, according to new research. It also suggests interacting with active people can influence the sedentary to become more active.
The research was developed by a team led by Ensela Mema, PhD from Kean University in New Jersey. According to the researchers, the 2018 U.S. Department of Health and Human Services guidelines recommending the types and amounts of physical activity haven’t inspired much improvement in daily exercise routines.
So, Mema and other researchers looked at previous research showing social interactions with contemporaries can play a key role in promoting physical activity within a community. They developed a mathematical model simulating how social interactions can affect a population’s exercise trends over time.
Using data from the U.S. Military Academy, the simulations showed populations with decreasing physical activity and sedentary behavior-always sitting and rarely moving-were most common in the absence of social interactions. However, when simulations included social interactions between sedentary and active people, they became more physically active in the long term.
“We have traditionally directed physical activity interventions by engaging sedentary individuals to become more active,” Mema said. “Our model suggests that focusing on the active population to sustain their activity and increasing their interactions with sedentary people could stimulate higher levels of overall physical activity in the population.”
Experts say there’s not only an increased level of enjoyment with group exercise, there’s also accountability, making it more likely that people show up and get results. Depending on the individual’s personality, expectations, experience, and motivation, everyone can respond differently and uniquely to a more social exercise environment. Some individuals are more internally accountable, where they will never miss a commitment they make to themselves, and others are more externally accountable, where they are more likely to exercise when they have an external accountability system.
Whereas some individuals may feel competitive, that sense of competition can be friendly or serious. Others can compare themselves with others, which can either lower or increase confidence depending on the context.
12. What do the underlined words “the sedentary” in paragraph 1 refer to?
A. Sporty persons. B. Inactive individuals.
C. Energetic youths. D. Unconfident singles.
13. What may be the problem with the 2018 guidelines about physical activity?
A. They lacked necessary factual basis.
B. They were targeted at residents in communities.
C. Too many ways of exercise were recommended.
D. Social interactions’ effect on exercise wasn’t considered.
14. What did experts explain in paragraph 6?
A. Why group exercise is effective.
B. How to engage more people to exercise.
C. Why overall physical activity contributes to health.
D. How traditional interventions inspire people to be competitive.
15. Which can be a suitable title for the text?
A. Exercise More, Sit Less
B. Doing Workouts with a Partner Works
C. Communicating with People Benefits Your Health
D. Social Exercise Environment Strengthens Competitiveness
【答案】12. B 13. D 14. A 15. C
【解析】

【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“According to the researchers, the 2018 U.S. Department of Health and Human Services guidelines recommending the types and amounts of physical activity haven’t inspired much improvement in daily exercise routines.(研究人员表示，2018年美国卫生与公众服务部指导方针建议了体育活动的类型和数量，但并没有对日常锻炼产生太大改善)”以及第三段“So, Mema and other researchers looked at previous research showing social interactions with contemporaries can play a key role in promoting physical activity within a community. They developed a mathematical model simulating how social interactions can affect a population’s exercise trends over time.(因此，Mema和其他研究人员查看了之前的研究，这些研究表明，与同时代人的社交互动在促进社区内的体育活动方面发挥了关键作用。他们开发了一个数学模型，模拟社会互动如何随着时间的推移影响人们的运动趋势)”可知，2018年关于体育活动的指导方针可能存在的问题是没有考虑社会互动对锻炼的影响。故选D。
【14题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第六段“Experts say there’s not only an increased level of enjoyment with group exercise, there’s also accountability, making it more likely that people show up and get results. Depending on the individual’s personality, expectations, experience, and motivation, everyone can respond differently and uniquely to a more social exercise environment. Some individuals are more internally accountable, where they will never miss a commitment they make to themselves, and others are more externally accountable, where they are more likely to exercise when they have an external accountability system.(专家表示，群体运动不仅能增加乐趣，还能增强责任感，让人们更有可能参与进来并取得成果。根据个人的个性、期望、经验和动机，每个人都可以对更社会化的锻炼环境做出不同和独特的反应。有些人对内更负责任，他们永远不会错过对自己做出的承诺，而另一些人对外更负责任，当他们有一个外部问责系统时，他们更有可能锻炼)”可知，专家在第6段中解释了为什么群体运动是有效的。故选A。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段“Exercising with a friend is more motivating than going unaccompanied, according to new research.

47. 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
David was a windsurfer, who was serious and hardworking. He dreamed of becoming a city champion of the annual Teenager Windsurfing Race. To achieve it, he barely missed a single game or practice whatever the weather. After months of intense training, the big day finally arrived!
The beach was crowded with the excited audience, including reporters and photographers. The speaker system was announcing the names of the windsurfers, calling them to get ready for the race. And there was David, in a line with other windsurfers, all of them moving nervously up and down on the waves behind an imaginary starting line. They were all fighting for the best position to start and were tense as a result, ignoring the vast sea they were on.
The moment the starter’s signal sounded, David was off, so natural and quick. He pulled hard at his sail to race just ahead of the group. As he picked up speed, gliding (滑行) over the waves, he felt the familiar joy and freedom that windsurfing always gave him. What he loved was simply being out at sea. He could hardly stop himself from shouting out in excitement, rushing to the finishing line for the first.
“Go! David!” The wind carried over a familiar voice. He looked around and spotted his elder sister Jessica on her speedboat upwind of him cheering for him. She waved at David and he nodded his head in acknowledgement, even though he knew she was too far away to see him. Just as he turned away, however, out of the comer of his eye, he saw smoke behind the speedboat, on the shore. Knowing that the smoke could tell him the direction the wind was blowing, he decided to study it for a moment out of habit. Just as he was getting a better sense of how to use the wind to his advantage, he saw it.
注意：1．续写词数应为150左右；
2．请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Not just the smoke but a big fire!

___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】
Not just the smoke but a big fire! David couldn’t believe his eyes. It occurred to him that it was from a restaurant where he once did a part-time job and that all the staff might be among the audience. He looked back at the beach, where all of the audience were too attentive to the race to be conscious of the fire. It was then that he made a resolution to turn around, passing by the other windsurfers and racing towards the shore, rather than the finishing line.
The other windsurfers were far ahead of him at that time. Apparently, this promising teenager had withdrawn the Race. Many confused people who noticed his strange behavior also spotted the shocking smoke and fire on the shore. The teenager rushed towards the fire, followed by many adults, including the staff. More hands made light work. They put out the fire before it was too late, minimizing the losses. Due to his contribution, the organizing committee awarded David the sportsmanship Award. All the audience applauded him for his acceptance speech: “I don’t regret losing the chance of becoming a champion to help others.”
