A
When we think of London theatres, we think of big productions in the centre of the city, costing hall a month’s rent for a single ticket. But the true heart of London theatres isn’t in Leicester Square. If you want to experience a five-star show for a £10 ticket, Of-West End is the way to go.
Theatre 503
There were a number of famous performers presenting themselves on the stage. Only holding 63 people, it’s a tight squeeze. But it’s well worth the push and squeeze that you’ll share with the locals for the outstanding performances.
Kiln Theatre
Located in the heart of Kilburn, Kiln Theatre opened in the Forester’s Hall in 1980. In 1987 the theatre was almost totally destroyed by a fire which started in a neighbouring yard. Two years later it was rebuilt. After undergoing a major redevelopment, the theatre reopened as the Kiln Theatre under the artistic leadership of Indhu Rubasingham in 2018.
Soho Theatre
As the name suggests, the theatre sits in the centre of Soho, and its bar has become a club for artists and audiences alike. By day it’s a house of writing, workshops, showcases, meetings and events and by night it’s a stage to an average of six shows.
Her Majesty’s Theatre
Her Majesty’s Theatre opened in 1897, which is known as a playhouse with productions of Shakespeare’s works as well as dramas based on his novels. However, following the death of Queen Elizabeth Ⅱ, Her Majesty’s Theatre will be renamed to His Majesty’s Theatre after King Charles MI’s coronation(加冕).
1. What is the major concern of theatre-goers who go to Off-West End?
A. Location. B. Schedule.
C. Price. D. Accommodation.
2. Which theatre experienced reconstruction?
A. Theatre 503. B. Kiln Theatre.

C. Propose a new name for the theatre.
D. Attend the king’s coronation ceremony.
【答案】1. C 2. B 3. A
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇应用文。主要介绍了Of-West End的四个剧院。
【1题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“When we think of London theatres, we think of big productions in the centre of the city, costing hall a month’s rent for a single ticket. But the true heart of London theatres isn’t in Leicester Square. If you want to experience a five-star show for a £10 ticket, Of-West End is the way to go. (当我们想到伦敦剧院时，我们想到的是市中心的大制作，一张票要花大厅一个月的租金。但伦敦剧院的真正心脏并不在Leicester Square。如果你想以10英镑的门票体验一场五星级演出，Of-West End是你的最佳选择)”可知，人们只需要10英镑就可以去Of-West End体验很棒的演出，所以去该剧院的人主要考虑了价格。故答案为C。
【2题详解】
细节理解题。根据“Kiln Theatre”段中的“In 1987 the theatre was almost totally destroyed by a fire which started in a neighbouring yard. Two years later it was rebuilt. (1987年，该剧院几乎被附近院子里的大火完全摧毁。两年后，它被重建)”可知Kiln Theatre经历了重建。故答案为B。
【3题详解】
细节理解题。根据“Her Majesty’s Theatre”段中“Her Majesty’s Theatre opened in 1897, which is known as a playhouse with productions of Shakespeare’s works as well as dramas based on his novels. (Her Majesty’s Theatre于1897年开业，该剧院以莎士比亚作品和根据其小说改编的戏剧作品而闻名)”可知，人们可以在Her Majesty’s Theatre欣赏莎士比亚的作品。故答案为A。
B
The apples that hang invitingly from trees in Tom Brown’s orchard(果园)are likely not found in your local supermarkets. They are the 1, 200 varieties that Brown has recovered from six southern states. Most haven’t been sold for a century or more; some were transplanted from the last known trees of their kind. All are finding a new life here in Tom Brown’s orchard.
One such apple is the Junaluska. It came from the Cherokee Indians more than two centuries ago and was named after a 19th-century leader. It was popular in the South before disappearing from commercial(商业化的)production by 1900. Brown came across the Junaluska in 2001. At first, he became curious about its unfamiliar name. Then, Brown found that its shape, color, and taste were like no apple he had ever seen before. With the farmer’s permission, he took a clipping(枝条)from the tree for his orchard and set about reintroducing the apple to the world.
Hearing that other lost apples might still be found in the area, Brown went in search of them. However, one dead end led to another. He had no choice but to reach out to local newspapers for help. The articles he ran led to suggestions from readers, and soon Brown was tasting many more varieties that were once thought lost.
In 1905, there were more than 7, 000 apple varieties in the United States. Then things changed. People moved to cities and grew less of their own food, while large businesses preferred selling ones that were familiar and shipped easily. Brown is anxious to bring back as many of the extinct or nearly extinct varieties as possible.
“These were foods that people had once cared about deeply, and that had been central to their lives, ”Brown says. “It felt wrong to just let them die and be lost forever. Everyone is responsible for protecting agricultural heritage. ”
4. What is special about Tom Brown’s orchard?
A. It makes high profits.
B. It has unique varieties
C. It trains skilled gardeners.
D. It works with local supermarkets.
5. Which best describes Brown’s road to recovering lost apples?
A. Funny. B. Pleasant. C. Difficult. D. Adventurous
6. What is paragraph 4 mainly about concerning apple varieties?
A. The causes of their disappearance.
B. The difficulties of their growth.
C. The history of their development.
D. The time of their extinction.
7. What can be inferred from Brown’s words in the last paragraph?
A. He plans to popularize his orchard.
B. He wants to express his love for food.
C. He hopes to promote commercial development.
D. He wishes to ensure varieties’ continued survival.
【答案】4. B 5. C 6. A 7. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了汤姆·布朗成功地恢复了美国国内1200多种苹果品种的故事。
【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段第二句和第三句“They are the 1, 200 varieties that Brown has recovered from six southern states. Most haven’t been sold for a century or more(布朗恢复了南方六个州种植过的1200多个苹果品种。大部分品种已经停售了一个多世纪了)”可知，布朗的果园的特别之处是果园里的苹果品种丰富多彩，别具一格，故选B 项。
【5题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段第二句和第三句“However, one dead end led to another. He had no choice but to reach out to local newspapers for help.(然而，一条路走不通了就会出现第二条路。他别无选择只能求助于当地的报纸)”可知，布朗恢复丢失的苹果之路遇上了很大的困难，故选C 项。
【6题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第四段主题句“Then things changed.(然后一切都变了)”以及支持主题句的第三句和第四句“People moved to cities and grew less of their own food, while large businesses preferred selling ones that were familiar and shipped easily.(人们搬到大城市，很少自己种植食物了。同时大公司喜欢销售那些名字熟悉的而且容易运输的)”可知，这些都是导致苹果品种消失的原因，因此本段主要讲了苹果品种消失的原因，故选A 项。
【7题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段最后两句“It felt wrong to just let them die and be lost forever. Everyone is responsible for protecting agricultural heritage(让它们死亡并永远消失是错误的。每个人都有责任保护农业遗产)”可知，布朗希望每个人都努力，让这些苹果品种能继续存活下来，故选D 项。
C

With vehicles flooding in, roads around the world get more and more crowded. Some of the brightest engineers and industries are racing to make science-fiction flying taxis a reality. In recent years, eVTOL, a new type of flying taxi takes technology a further step. As the name suggests, these electric flying taxis take off and land vertically(垂直地), like helicopters, which make their airports take up as little space as possible in cities.
The eVTOL paves the way for environment-friendly transport. It is powered by batteries and produces zero carbon emissions(碳排放). The mass use of eVTOL will lower air pollution in cities. If recharged from a renewable source of electricity, it is a lot cheaper to run. Some may be concerned about its speed. In fact, it can reach speeds of 150 to 200 miles an hour flying at a height of 1, 000 and 2, 000 feet, which is something cars can never achieve. You can board a flying taxi and move ahead to your destination in a matter of minutes! And there is another difference from a traditional taxi: silence. As the electric flying taxi flies overhead, it is surprisingly quiet.
On November 10, 2022, the first vertiport for eVTOL, managed by Groupe ADP, opened in Paris. It plans to serve for the 2024 Paris Olympics. By then the company plans for at least two routes to be operating in the city, with a total of ten air taxis, each flying two or three trips an hour. These will link the Olympic Village with traditional airports and a medical centre. “By the end of 2030, it is not only Paris’s terrible traffic that could be avoided from above, but the jammed roads of several other cities, too, ”says Dirk Hoke, director of the Sustainable Development and Real Estate Director RATP Group.
8. Why do engineers develop the eVTOL?
A. To improve city traffic.
B. To hold a flying taxi race.
C. To reduce population stress.
D. To meet Olympics’ demands.
9. What does paragraph 2 mainly focus on about the eVTOL?
A. Its background. B. Its design. C. Its costs. D. Its advantages
10. What’s Dirk Hoke’s attitude to the eVTOL?
A. Concerned. B. Positive. C. Unclear. D. Doubtful.
11. In which part of a newspaper is the text probably found?
A. Travel. B. Sports. C. Culture. D. Technology.
【答案】8. A 9. D 10. B 11. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是说明文。本文介绍了一种新型的飞行出租车eVTOL，这些电动飞行出租车像直升机一样垂直起降，这使得它们的机场在城市中占据的空间尽可能小。
【8题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段“With vehicles flooding in, roads around the world get more and more crowded. Some of the brightest engineers and industries are racing to make science-fiction flying taxis a reality. In recent years, eVTOL, a new type of flying taxi takes technology a further step.（随着车辆大量涌入，世界各地的道路变得越来越拥挤。一些最聪明的工程师和行业正在竞相让科幻小说中的飞行出租车成为现实。近年来，一种新型的飞行出租车eVTOL将技术又向前推进了一步。）”可知，为了提升城市交通，工程师们发明了eVTOL。故选A。
【9题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第二段“The eVTOL paves the way for environment-friendly transport. It is powered by batteries and produces zero carbon emissions(碳排放). The mass use of eVTOL will lower air pollution in cities. If recharged from a renewable source of electricity, it is a lot cheaper to run. Some may be concerned about its speed. In fact, it can reach speeds of 150 to 200 miles an hour flying at a height of 1, 000 and 2, 000 feet, which is something cars can never achieve. You can board a flying taxi and move ahead to your destination in a matter of minutes! And there is another difference from a traditional taxi: silence. As the electric flying taxi flies overhead, it is surprisingly quiet.（eVTOL为环保交通铺平了道路。它由电池供电，零碳排放。eVTOL的大规模使用将降低城市的空气污染。如果用可再生能源充电，运行起来要便宜得多。有些人可能会担心它的速度。事实上，它可以在1000到2000英尺的高度上以每小时150到200英里的速度飞行，这是汽车永远无法达到的。你可以登上一辆飞行出租车，在几分钟内到达你的目的地!还有一个与传统出租车不同的地方：安静。电动飞行出租车从头顶飞过时，出奇地安静。）”可知，第二段介绍了eVTOL的优势。故选D。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“‘By the end of 2030, it is not only Paris’s terrible traffic that could be avoided from above, but the jammed roads of several other cities, too, ’says Dirk Hoke, director of the Sustainable Development and Real Estate Director RATP Group.（到2030年底，不仅巴黎糟糕的交通状况可以从空中避免，其他几个城市拥挤的道路也可以避免，”RATP集团可持续发展和房地产总监Dirk Hoke说。）”可知，Dirk Hoke’对eVTOL是支持的态度。故选B。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段“With vehicles flooding in, roads around the world get more and more crowded. Some of the brightest engineers and industries are racing to make science-fiction flying taxis a reality. In recent years, eVTOL, a new type of flying taxi takes technology a further step.（随着车辆大量涌入，世界各地的道路变得越来越拥挤。一些最聪明的工程师和行业正在竞相让科幻小说中的飞行出租车成为现实。近年来，一种新型的飞行出租车eVTOL将技术又向前推进了一步。）”可知，本文介绍了工程师们发明的电动飞行出租车eVTOL，属于科技范畴。故选D。
D
Exams are brain-burning. The silence of the hall; the beating of the clock; the watchful eye of the teacher; the proud expression of the person sitting at the neighbouring desk who has finished 15 minutes early. It therefore seems hardly surprising that those who feel anxious about taking tests do worse than those who do not. But different from the existing point of view, the recent study published in Psychological Science by Maria Theobald suggests it is the pressure of revision that affects your exam performance (表现).
To test this idea, Dr Theobald worked with 309 German medical students who were preparing for their final exam, the most important that they take. During the 100 days before the real exam, these students used an online digital-learning app which presented them with old exam questions and recorded their performance. And 40 days before the real exam, they also took a mock (模拟) exam. Their levels of anxiety were also be recorded and assessed (评定), every day for 40 days before the real exam and also on the day of that exam.
What Dr Theobald found was not what she expected. Anxiety on the day of the test did not predict exam performance at all. What did predict it was the level of knowledge a student showed in the mock exam and the earlier practices. Those who performed well in these also did well in the real test, no matter how anxious they were on the day.
It turned out that what really affected students were high levels of anxiety during the weeks before the exam took place. The greater a student’s anxiety in the days before the exam, the lower his or her knowledge gain was during that period. To reduce this anxiety. she gives some advice for students to consider as they revise. First, they can raise their belief in their own abilities by reminding themselves of just how much they know. Second, they can diminish the importance of the test by reminding themselves that, while it is important, it is not a life or death situation. It really isn’t.
12. What influences exam results based on the existing view?
A. Exam levels.
B. Exam schedule.
C. Pressure of the exam hall.
D. High expectations from teachers.
13. How did Dr Theobald carry out the study?
A. By interviewing students.
B By collecting the former data.
C. By referring to experts’ advice.
D By tracking students’ performances.
14. What does the underlined word “diminish” probably mean in the last paragraph?
A. Reduce. B. Affect. C. Realize. D. Understand.
15. Which of the following is the suitable title for the text?
A Never Too Late to Revise
B. Never Put Off Revision till Tomorrow
C. Anxiety in Revision, Failure in Exam
D. The More Pressure, The Better Results
【答案】12. C 13. D 14. A 15. C
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一项研究表明复习压力会影响你的考试成绩。
【12题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段前几句话“Exams are brain-burning. The silence of the hall; the beating of the clock; the watchful eye of the teacher; the proud expression of the person sitting at the neighbouring desk who has finished 15 minutes early. It therefore seems hardly surprising that those who feel anxious about taking tests do worse than those who do not.(考试是烧脑的。大厅的寂静；时钟的跳动；老师的警觉之眼；坐在邻桌的人的骄傲表情，他提前15分钟完成了任务。因此，那些对考试感到焦虑的人比那些不焦虑的人做得更糟，这似乎并不奇怪)”可推知，现有观点认为考试时的紧张氛围（如考场的压力）会让一些学生感到有压力，甚至焦虑，这会影响到他们的考试成绩。故选C。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“To test this idea, Dr Theobald worked with 309 German medical students who were preparing for their final exam, the most important that they take. During the 100 days before the real exam, these students used an online digital-learning app which presented them with old exam questions and recorded their performance. And 40 days before the real exam, they also took a mock (模拟) exam. Their levels of anxiety were also be recorded and assessed (评定), every day for 40 days before the real exam and also on the day of that exam.(为了验证这一想法，Theobald博士与309名德国医学生合作，他们正在准备期末考试，这是他们最重要的考试。在真正考试前的100天里，这些学生使用了一个在线数字学习应用程序，向他们展示了旧的考试问题并记录了他们的表现。在真正考试前40天，他们还参加了一次模拟考试。他们的焦虑程度也会被记录和评估，在真正考试之前的40天以及考试当天，每天都会记录和评估)”可知， Theobald博士是通过追踪学生的表现来实施的实验。故选D。
【14题详解】
词句猜测题。根据最后一段“Second, they can diminish the importance of the test by reminding themselves that, while it is important, it is not a life or death situation.(第二，他们可以通过提醒自己，尽管考试很重要，但这不是生死攸关的情况，从而diminish考试的重要性)”可知，如何降低考前的过度焦虑，我们可知告诉自己考试并不是生死攸关的事情，这样就降低了考试的重要性。所以画线单词的意思是“减少”。故选A。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。文章主要介绍了一项研究表明复习压力会影响你的考试成绩，在复习时压力越大，考试的成绩就越糟糕。所以“复习焦虑、考试失败”适合作本文的标题。故选C。

【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。主要介绍了能够更好享受旅行的几条建议。
【16题详解】
前文“First and foremost, when traveling in foreign countries, you have to respect their way of life. (首先也是最重要的一点，在外国旅行时，你必须尊重他们的生活方式)”强调要尊重当地的生活方式，后文“Otherwise, you may get yourself on the wrong side. (否则，你可能会站在错误的一边)”强调不尊重的话可能会站在错误的一边，B选项“It requires you to see things from a different stand. (它要求你从不同的角度看待事物)”中的代词It呼应前文的尊重当地文化生活，同时与后文构成转折关系。故答案为B。
【17题详解】
根据后文“Just make an effort to know as much as possible about your place. Get to know their religion, language, culture, etc. (就像尽可能多地了解你所在的地方。了解他们的宗教、语言、文化等)”可知，作者建议要了解旅游目的地的具体内容，所以C选项“You should prepare yourself about your destination. (你应该为你的目的地做好准备)”符合题意，选项中的“prepare”呼应后文的“know”。故答案为C。
【18题详解】
上文“High seasons are times when people travel in large numbers. (在旅游旺季人们大规模地进行旅行)”指出旺季旅游的人很多，后文“You could save on tickets if there are not many tourists. In some places, you may find hotels are at a very low discount in the low season. (如果游客不多，你可以节省门票。在一些地方，你可能会发现酒店在淡季的折扣很低)”主要描述了旅游中的花费问题。由此推知，空处承接上文，指出旺季旅行可能花费较多。所以F选项“During such times, you need to pay lots of money for your flight. (在这种情况下，你需要为你的航班支付很多钱)”符合题意。故答案为F。
【19题详解】
由前文“Share information with them, and you may get a nice experience in return. They may teach you their language, customs, lifestyles and so on. (与他们分享信息，你可能会得到一次美好的体验。他们可能会教你他们的语言、习俗、生活方式等等)”可知，作者建议要和遇到的人友好交流，从中可以学到很多。D选项“Besides, you may learn how they call certain foods. (此外，你可以学习他们如何称呼某些食物)”与前文构成递进关系，进一步描述了在与他们交流的过程中，还可以学到如何称呼某些食物。故答案为D。
【20题详解】
前文“Don’t think of the next time, Enjoy the present. (不要想着下一次，好好享受现在)”强调要享受当下，E选项“Things change pretty fast, and you may have only one chance. (事情变化很快，你可能只有一次机会)”是作者建议享受当下的原因，前后构成因果关系。故答案为E。

52. 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。
A Water Boy
It was the longest heat wave anyone could remember, and Sebastian couldn’t wait to cool off at the beach with his dad. Before heading out of town, they stopped at the library down the street to return a few books.
Sebastian noticed several workers on the library roof. “What are they doing?” he asked. Dad watched them for a moment. “Fixing the roof.” He shook his head as they drove away. “Hot day for that. I worked as a roofer for a few years. Hardest job I ever had.”It was then that an idea flashed across Sebastian’s head：I bet they could need some drinking water. But the idea disappeared just quickly from the ten-year-old’s mind, for his thoughts all turned to swimming.
The sea was perfect for swimming, and the light wind cooled the air. But all too soon they were headed home. Sebastian was half listening to the car radio when the DJ gave the weather report. “The record breaking heat will continue throughout the afternoon,”she added. “If you have to be outside, remember to drink enough water.” What the DJ said reminded Sebastian of his just-finished soccer camp. Even with frequent water breaks, it had been terribly hot. His jersey stuck to his skin so stubbornly at the end of each day that he could hardly pull it off. Suddenly, Sebastian remembered the roofers. “What happened to them?”Sebastian thought to himself. He immediately asked his dad to drive to the library.

The roofers all climbed down happily for a water break.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】范文
When they reached there, the roofers were still working in the heat. Seeing them sweating a lot in the hot sun, Sebastian decided to take some drinking water to them. He shared the idea with his dad, who nodded without hesitation. Sebastian collected the bottled water left in the car, then went to the nearby supermarket and bought plenty using his pocket money. After all this was ready, they returned to the library and asked the roofers to have a water break.
The roofers all climbed down happily for a water break. “Thank you for your timely water! Our water boy!” they all said as they passed around the bottles and opened them. “You deserve a big thumbs up,” one worker said between gulps. Hearing the workers’ praises and seeing bright smiles on their faces, Sebastian felt so happy. It was a small thing, but still, it made Sebastian and the people he helped feel good.
