M: Hey, do you want to go to the gym with me on Saturday?

W: Sure! When I try to go by myself, I always end up at the café eating brunch instead. I have no motivation to work out alone, so I’m glad you asked!

Text 2

W: Good morning, Dr. Cruz.

M: Hello, Mrs. Moore. Who’s your visitor?

W: Oh, this is my daughter, Heather. She’s a writer and her husband’s a teacher.

Text 3

M: What’s wrong, Rachel? You aren’t looking yourself!

W: My mum’s got a job in Liverpool! I’ve finally made friends after years of loneliness here. Now off we go again. Why can’t my mum have a steady job?

Text 4

M: Home at last! That was the last time we had a holiday in the Lake District.

W: It was beautiful! At least it didn’t snow.

M: I would have preferred snow to constant rain. We had never seen the sun there!

Text 5

W: San Francisco General Hospital.

M: Hello. This is an emergency. Can you please send an ambulance?

W: OK, OK. Just try to calm down, sir. And tell me where you are.

M: Right. Uh, we are at La Traviata Restaurant in North Beach.

Text 6

M: I went to the bottle bank (玻璃瓶回收站) today, and guess what, it was completely full!

W: Oh, that’s a shame. Did you have to bring all the glass home again?

M: Yes. There was a sign saying not to leave anything on the ground. I really don’t understand why they can’t empty it more often. What’s the point of having a bottle bank if you can’t put any bottles into it?

W: You’re right. Maybe you should write a letter to a newspaper about that.

Text 7

W: Harry, guess what! I’ve just received an email from Pamela. She and Peter are coming down to see us this weekend.

M: Oh, that’s good news! We haven’t seen them for ages.

W: Yeah. The last time we met them was at our wedding three years ago.

M: Did Pamela mention how long they’ll stay?

W: About one week.

M: Great! I can’t wait to show them around our new house.

W: Me too. We haven’t had any guests since we moved in here. If the weather is fine, we can have a barbecue in the garden.

M: Good idea. I’ll go to the market tomorrow to buy all the things we’ll need.

Text 8

M: Tina, I’m sorry to bother you. But I’m afraid there is a big problem.

W: Oh, what’s up then?

M: You told me last week that you would deal with the faulty desks returned by HDC, one of our local customers.

W: Yes, that’s right. I did send them the replacements for all the desks last Monday.

M: Well, the thing is, did you realize there were two kinds of faulty desks? The customer only received one kind of desks.

W: Oh dear, I didn’t realize there were two kinds. I’ll send them the other kind right away.

M: The problem is that now they want to get their money back.

W: Oh dear, that’s really bad. I’ll phone them now and explain everything. I’m really sorry about this.

M: That’s all right. There’s still time to solve the problem. I think it would be best to visit them and explain the mistake face to face.

W: OK. I’ll make arrangements and visit them as soon as possible. Sorry again!

Text 9

M: How was your trip?

W: Great! I went all over the world. I started out in Germany and then made my way to Spain and France. After Europe, I went to Egypt and Turkey, then over to India and China. From China, I traveled to Thailand and Indonesia, then spent some time in Australia. I was planning on going to South America, but I ran out of money.

M: How long were you gone for? It felt like years.

W: Almost half a year. I was gone for five months. It was amazing, and I learned so much about myself and the world around me.

M: A few years ago, I spent two weeks in England and Ireland, but that’s it. I almost went to Brazil for work last year, but my boss changed his mind. What are you up to now that you’re home?

W: I have to find a place to live. Right now, I’m staying with my parents. I also have to find a job.

M: What kind of job are you looking for?

W: Anything in the food business.

M: I have a friend who works at a nice restaurant. I can introduce you to him.

W: Great!

W: Sweetest Day is always the third Saturday in October. This holiday is much more important in some regions than in others (Detroit, Cleveland and Buffalo are the biggest Sweetest Day cities). But this holiday is gaining in popularity every year throughout the country. Sweetest Day is celebrated to make someone happy. It is an occasion which offers an opportunity to remember not only the sick, aged, and orphaned, but also friends and relatives. Over 60 years ago, a Cleveland man, believing that the city’s orphans and patients too often felt forgotten, formed in the mind an idea of showing them that they were not. He did this by the distribution of small gifts. With the help of his friends and neighbors, he distributed them on a Saturday in October. In the years that followed, other residents began to participate in the event, which came to be called “Sweetest Day”. In time, the Day became an occasion for acknowledging others with a kind act or a small remembrance. Soon the idea began spreading to other cities all over the country.

【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章节选自小说《荆棘鸟》，描写了母亲Fee在得知儿子Frank因犯谋杀罪被判刑后的挣扎与纠结，想去看儿子，但是又想尊重儿子的愿望，维护儿子的自尊。

【24题详解】推理判断题。根据倒数第三段“Paddy was still weeping, not for Frank, but for the life which had gone from Fee’s face, for the dying in her eyes. Frank had always brought bitterness and misfortune, always stood between Fee and himself. He was the cause of her withdrawal from his heart and the hearts of his children. Every time it looked as if there might be happiness for Fee, Frank took it away. But Paddy’s love for her was as deep and impossible to wipe out as hers was for Frank.(Paddy还在哭泣，不是为了Frank，而是为了Fee脸上消失的生命，为了她眼中垂死的神情。Frank总是带来痛苦和不幸，总是站在Fee和他自己之间。他是她从他和他的孩子们的心里消失的原因。每一次它看起来像是要花钱才能得到幸福的时候，Frank就把它拿走。但Paddy对她的爱就像她对Frank的爱一样深，无法消除。)”可知，Paddy哭是因为他认为发生在Frank身上的事让Fee非常痛苦、难过。故选C。

【25题详解】推理判断题。根据第六段划线句的下文“‘I can’t go,’ she said without a hint of pain, yet making everyone feel that the pain was there. ‘It would kill him to see me. I know him so well — his pride, his ambition. Let him bear the shame alone, it’s what he wants. We’ve got to help him keep his secret. What good will it do him to see us?’(‘我不能去，’她说，没有一丝痛苦，但却让每个人都觉得痛苦就在那里。‘他要是看见我，会死的。我很了解他，他的骄傲，他的野心。让他独自承受耻辱吧，这是他想要的。我们得帮他保守秘密。他看见我们有什么好处呢?’)”可知，Fee想去见Frank，但是又想尊重Frank的愿望，维护他的骄傲与自尊，由此可知，划线句“She half-rose before sinking back(撑起半身又坐下了)”显示了Fee在想要见Frank和尊重他的意愿之间的挣扎与纠结。故选D。

【26题详解】推理判断题。根据第三段“Cleary was sentenced to life imprisonment with hard labour. Asked if he had anything to say, Cleary answered, ‘Just don’t tell my mother.’(Cleary被判处终身监禁并服苦役。当被问及他是否有什么要说的时候，Cleary回答说：‘只要别告诉我妈妈就行了。’)”以及第六段中的“ ‘I can’t go,’ she said without a hint of pain, yet making everyone feel that the pain was there. ‘It would kill him to see me. I know him so well — his pride, his ambition. Let him bear the shame alone, it’s what he wants. We’ve got to help him keep his secret. What good will it do him to see us?’(‘我不能去，’她说道，没有一丝痛苦，但却让每个人都觉得痛苦就在那里。‘他要是看见我，会死的。我很了解他，他的骄傲，他的野心。让他独自承受耻辱吧，这是他想要的。我们得帮他保守秘密。他看见我们有什么好处呢?’)”可知，Frank不想让他的家人知道对他的判决，很可能是出于他的自尊心。故选D。

27题详解】推理判断题。根据第三段“Cleary was sentenced to life imprisonment with hard labour. Asked if he had anything to say, Cleary answered, ‘Just don’t tell my mother.’(Cleary被判处终身监禁并服苦役。当被问及他是否有什么要说的时候，Cleary回答说：‘只要别告诉我妈妈就行了。’)”以及第四段“‘It happened over three years ago,’ Paddy said helplessly. No one answered him or moved, for no one knew what to do. ‘Just don’t tell my mother,’ said Fee numbly(麻木地). ‘And no one did! Oh, God! My poor, poor Frank!’(‘这是三年前的事了，’Paddy无助地说。没有人回答他，也没有人动，因为谁也不知道该怎么办。‘别告诉我妈妈就行了，’Fee麻木地说。‘可是没有人这样做！哦，上帝！我可怜的、可怜的Frank!’)”可知，Fee是Frank的妈妈；再根据倒数第三段中的“But Paddy’s love for her was as deep and impossible to wipe out as hers was for Frank.(但是Paddy对她的爱和她对Frank的爱一样深，一样无法抹去。)”可推知，Paddy是Fee的丈夫。故选B。

C篇 28．A    29．B    30．B    31．C

【分析】本文是说明文。文章介绍通过实验发现，手写记笔记比用笔记本电脑记笔记更有好处，有利于学生记忆和复习。

28．细节理解题。根据文章第二段第一行的句子Students are increasingly using laptops for note-taking because of speed and legibility(清晰度).可知，越来越多的学生喜欢用笔记本记笔记，因为这样他们可以记更多的笔记。故选A。

29．细节理解题。根据第三段的句子Researchers performed experiments that aimed to find out whether using a laptop increased the tendency to make notes "mindlessly" by taking down word for word what the professors said可知，使用笔记本电脑记笔记的学生在记笔记的过程中往往是无意识的、不动脑的。故选B。

30．推理判断题。根据文章第一段A new study shows students who write notes by hand during lectures perform better on exams than those who use laptops(笔记本电脑)和最后一段These two experiments suggest that handwritten notes are not only better for immediate learning and understanding，but that they also lead to superior revision in the future.可知，文章介绍通过实验发现手写记笔记比用笔记本记笔记好处更多，学生更容易记住记的材料，所以作者是想强调用手记笔记的重要性。故选B。

31．推理判断题。根据文章第一段中的Researchers performed experiments that...及倒数第二段中的In another experiment aimed at testing long-term memory可知，研究结果是通过科学实验得出的，所以短文应该出现在科学杂志上，而不是：报纸广告，电脑课文，和财经报道。故选C。

D篇：32．D    33．C    34．C   35．A

【分析】本文是一篇议论文。文章主要讲了在遇到紧急情况时，对于无人驾驶汽车是先保护行人还是先保护乘客的问题，道德的难题可能会限制无人驾驶汽车的吸引力。

32．词句猜测题。由第一段“But how should driverless cars handle emergencies? People disagree on the answer.(但是无人驾驶汽车应该如何处理紧急情况呢？人们对此有不同意见)”及划线词后的“imagine a car that suddenly meets some pedestrians in the road.(想象一辆汽车突然在路上遇到一些行人)”可知，challenge指代的是上文中的“无人驾驶汽车如何处理紧急事件”。故选D。

33．细节理解题。由第三段“Survey participants mostly agreed that driverless cars should be designed to protect the most people. That included swerving into walls (or otherwise sacrificing their passengers) to save a larger number of pedestrians. But there is a hitch (困境). Those same surveyed people want to ride in cars that protect passengers at all costs — even if the pedestrians would now end up dying.(调查参与者大多同意无人驾驶汽车的设计应该保护大多数人。这包括为了拯救更多的行人而撞向墙壁（或者牺牲乘客）。但有一个问题。同样是这些被调查者，他们希望乘坐不惜一切代价保护乘客的汽车——即使行人会因此丧命)”可知，网上调查表明人们关心在遇到紧急情况时，对于无人驾驶汽车是先保护行人还是先保护乘客的问题上陷入了道德困境。故选C。

34．细节理解题。由第五段“Makers of driverless cars are in a tough spot, Bonnefon’s group warns.(Bonnefon的团队警告称，无人驾驶汽车制造商处境艰难)”可知，无人驾驶汽车的制造者处于艰难的处境。故选C。

35．推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“Those vehicles might be dangerous to pedestrians on rare occasions. But they “won’t speed, won’t drive drunk and won’t text while driving, which would be a win for society.(这些车辆在极少数情况下可能会对行人造成危险。但他们不会超速，不会酒后驾车，也不会边开车边发短信，这对社会来说是一种胜利)”可推断，作者对无人驾驶的汽车的态度是支持和赞成的。故选A。

七选五 36．E    37．A    38．B    39．F    40．G

【分析】这是一篇议论文。文章讨论了“管理孩子们的屏幕时间是个好主意吗”这一问题，最后得出结论：父母应该让孩子们有发言权，让他们参与问题的计划和决策过程。

36．由上一句“在今天的家庭中，屏幕时间是一个重要的话题，特别是在疫情流行期间，许多学生的在线教育时间成倍增加。”和下一句“他们希望让孩子们免受科技带来的无数挑战。”可知，疫情流行期间，学生上网面对屏幕的时间增加，家长害怕这样对孩子造成不好的影响，所以会去购买相关的程序工具来监控孩子的上网时间，控制孩子们的屏幕时间，该选项中的“manage children's screen time”对应本段尾句中的“managing screen time”，承接上下文，E选项“为了管理孩子们的屏幕时间，家长们投资了应用程序和追踪器。”切题。故选E项。

37．由下一句“但是科技也有积极的好处。”可知，But表转折，空后说科技的好处，此空应说科技不好的地方，比如不健康的网站对孩子不好，承接下文，A选项“当然，有些网站对孩子来说是不健康的。”切题。故选A项。

38．由上一句“这是个神话，认为父母可以或应该通过专制的限制来管理孩子的荧屏时间，甚至在小学阶段也是如此。”和下一句“当孩子们被排除在这些决定之外时，他们通常会减少与父母和兄弟姐妹的交流。”可知，对于管理孩子们的屏幕时间，父母专制型的监管很难实现，而且当孩子被排除在“屏幕时间管理”的决定外，又会带来消极影响，说明作者认为孩子应该参与到“屏幕时间管理”的决策中，该选项中的“decisions”对应下文中的“those decisions”，承接上下文，B选项“另一种选择是让孩子们参与决定屏幕时间。”切题。故选B项。

39．由下两句“从很小的时候起，孩子们就很有能力理解良好的生活需要意识和平衡。正如他们从错误中学习正确，从错误中学习好，他们也可以学习以健康的方式使用技术。”可知，孩子有能力理解一些事物，也能学习各种使用技术，说明孩子是有自主（学习）意识的，所以让孩子参与到“屏幕时间管理”的决策中时，父母要信任孩子有自我意识去学习、理解事物，承接下文，F选项“为了让孩子参与进来，父母应该信任并培养孩子的自我意识。”切题。故选F项。

40．由上一句“明确地说，这篇文章并不是建议家庭永远不要使用应用程序或追踪器，或者不应该限制屏幕时间。”和下一句“父母应该让孩子们有发言权，让他们参与计划和决策过程。”可知，文章并非不建议父母不去管理孩子的屏幕时间，而是建议父母让孩子也参与到“屏幕时间管理”的决策中，相对于父母专制型的完全监管，这是一种不一样的管理屏幕时间方式，承接上下文，G选项“它的建议是，家长们应该用不同的方式来管理屏幕时间。”切题。故选G项。

【答案】41. C    42. A    43. D    44. B    45. D    46. B    47. D    48. C    49. A    50. C    51. B    52. A    53. B    54. A    55. D

写作One possible version:

At present, a considerable amount of garbage is produced every day. The problem of garbage pollution is getting so serious that many cities around the world are now being surrounded by garbage.

To solve the problem, first, we should economize on resources so as to reduce the amount of garbage. Second, we should sort the garbage properly so that they can be treated easily and differently. Third, reusable garbage should be recycled as much as possible.

In my opinion, it is everyone’s responsibility to reduce garbage pollution. Only with our joint efforts can we live in a better environment.

读后续写【答案】

To Mark’s surprise, Mandy directly went inside the graveyard. And seconds after keeping walking, Mandy stood in front of a recent gravestone. She tenderly put the roses next to the gravestone. “Mommy,” she said, “I miss you and I bring you your favorite roses...” Seeing that, Mark felt tears well up in his eyes. He couldn’t imagine what his life would have been like without his mother. This little girl had lost her mother at an early age, so she’d never have that love he’d been taking for granted.

After dropping Mandy off by her house, Mark went back to the flower shop. He canceled the delivery, carried the flowers, and drove to his mother’s home. When his mother opened the door, he presented her with the flowers, and hugged her, saying, “I love you, Mom.” His mother cried happily. She said, “I thought you’d just deliver flowers or phone me.” Tears misted Mark’s eyes. He thought of poor little Mandy and realized how lucky he was. So, my dear friends, cherish your loved ones before it’s too late.
