B Last weekend,I was talking about winter vacation plans with a friend when I suddenly realized that this year I should start up an old plan of learning how to skate again.
I’ve always wanted to learn skating. But I didn’t have a proper chance to learn it. When I was young, the small coastal city where I lived had no ice rink (溜冰场). My parents signed me up for
classes at a skating school out of town, but I had to catch the early bus on weekends to get there, and it took two hours to go and come back, so I gave it up pretty quickly.
Now is my chance to fulfill my childhood dream! Excited, I started calling skating rinks in Beijing, hoping to sign up for lessons. But some said they only had classes for children. Some said it was too much trouble to teach adults. One receptionist paused after my question and said strangely, “You never learned this as a child?”
I understand if they don’t get many adult learners, but to say that adults are harder to teach than children is such a slap in the face. I thought I lived in a society that encourages people to take on lifelong learning. Is there some unspoken rule that says after one reaches a certain age, he or she is not allowed to learn systematically with a trainer anymore? Are adults not allowed to pursue new hobbies?
There were many things I didn’t have time to properly learn when I was young. I failed to see how important hobbies were, and I was sick of my parents nagging (唠叨) me to do after-school activities. Today, when I want to go out with friends, I find I have so few activities to do with them. And now I’m being told that I can’t even make up for my childhood mistake. It seems that I’ve missed my chance. I missed it 20 years ago. Now, I can only go on being ordinary. 4.The author gave up learning skating when she was young because _____________. A. she wasn’t interested in it B. her parents didn’t allow her to learn it C. her parents couldn’t find any skating schools D. it was inconvenient for her to take the lessons 5. How did those skating rinks the author called respond to her request? A. Positively. B. Anxiously. C. Flexibly. D. Disappointingly. 6. Which could be the author’s opinion?A. It’s never too late to learn. B. It’s understandable that adults don’t like learning.C. Adults are harder to teach than kids. D. Adults had better not pursue new hobbies.
7. The passage is written to express the author’s ___________.
A. fear of going on being ordinary
B. determination to learn skating well
C. regret for losing the chance of pursuing hobbies
D. blame on her parents’ nagging her to do after-school activities
【答案】4. D 5. D 6. A 7. C
【解析】

We’re not sure where letting children drink wine fits into permissive, authoritaria n and authoritative parenting styles, but a research team from the University of New South Wales are trying to find it out.
During their study, researchers discovered that kids who were given alcohol by their parents were more likely to be consuming whole drinks by the time they were 15 or 16, but were far less likely to binge-drink(酗酒).
The researchers analyzed nearly 2,000 Year 7 students and their parents over a four-year period. They measured the teenagers’ consumption of whole drinks, their binge drinking—consuming four or more drinks at a time, as well as who supplied them with the alcohol: their parents, friends, or other adults. The study found that when children were given alcohol from their parents, they were least likely to binge-drink.
But what about the long-reported damage that alcohol can have on developing teenage brains? Lead author of this study, Professor Richard Mattick, says that giving children alcohol at an earlier age could serve as a preventative measure of kids developing alcohol-related problems later in life. “There’s a body of research indicating the adoles cent brain is still developing well into the early 20s and alcohol may prevent the best development,” says Professor Mattick. “But also we know parents want to do the right thing for their children and there has been anecdotal evidence that children introduced to alcohol by their parents, as is common in some European cultures, may be less likely to develop problems with alcohol.”
However, there’s one result from the study Professor Mattick can’t ignore: that being given alcohol at an early age by the parents doubled (使加倍) children’s possibility of drinking than their peers (同龄人). “There may be later harms that are not yet obvious, and we’re aware that an early start of drinking is strongly associated with later alcohol use problems in adulthood—putting it off is the best strategy.”
8. According to the researchers, kids supplied with alcohol by their parents will be______.
A more likely to quit drinking in adulthood
B. less likely to grow into teenage binge-drinkers
C. more likely to grow into binge-drinkers
D. less likely to have whole drinks as teenagers
9. Who affected kids’ drinking behaviors the most in the study?
A. Their parents
B. Their friends
C. School authorities
D. Strangers
10. Which statement will Professor Mattick agree with?
A. The brain stops developing before the age of 20.
B. Alcohol won’t damage the developing teenage brains.
C. Giving kids alcohol at an earlier age may have its benefit.
D. European kids tend to develop problems with alcohol.
11. On Professor Mattick’s advice, parents had b etter________.
A. let kids drink alcohol at an early age
B. make kids start drinking alcohol late
C. forbid kids to drink alcohol at any age
D. permit kids to drink alcohol at will
【答案】8. B 9. A 10. C 11. B

An arts program is helping students at some of the lowest performing schools in the United States. The program, called Turnaround Arts, aims to help improve low performing schools by adding music and the arts to the usual study program.
Turnaround Arts was launched by Michelle Obama, the wife of former U.S President Barack Obama. Some money for the program comes from the federal government. For the students at participating schools, the program offers a kind of safe place from city neighborhoods. Many of the children come from areas with high crime rates.
Turnaround Arts is a partnership between the federal government and private businesses. Florence Griffith Joyner Elementary is one of the 68 schools in the U.S. participating in the program. Teachers receive special training and look for ways to add music and the arts into all the classes.
Turnaround Arts schools partner with musicians and actors who work with the students. Performers have included Yo-Yo Ma, Sarah Jessica Parker, Elton John and Cameron Diaz.
School headmaster Long noted “The children were so excited and have been so excited because it’s not just about —‘Go to the board. Do the problem. Turn the page. Read the book’; it’s about acting and imitating artists and historic figures.” She noted how some students got the chance to act out the process of a caterpillar (毛虫) becoming a butterfly. “I like to act and I like to sing and I like to dance,” said 10-year-old Kayla Driakare.
Long said that Turnaround Arts was only in its first year at the school, and teachers were already seeing results. “We’ve probably suspended(暂时停学) one kid this year. That’s amazing,” she said. “Parents are getting phone calls to come to family arts night, and it’s not just the naughty calls home. It’s for them to come and learn more about what their children are learning. So our parents’ engagement goes up.”
12. Turnaround Arts launched by Michelle Obama ______.
A. helps students who behave badly get high grades
B. aims to improve teachers’ and students’ performance
C. gets financial support only from the federal government
D. provides students with a chance of having access to musicians and actors
13. What can be inferred from what Principal Long said?
A. Students love this program very much.
B. Students can learn how to act from this program.
C. This program makes students know science well.
D. Students can perform themselves well during the program.
14. Which word can replace the underlined word in the last paragraph?
A. attitude
B. proposal
C. involvement
D. opportunity
15. What’s the author’s purpose in writing the passage?
A. To advertise for an institute.
B. To introduce an arts program of the USA.
C. To call on people to support some lowest performing schools.
D. To encourage more American schools to participate in Turnaround Arts.

本文是新闻报道。
讲述了新加坡的屋顶农场计划,希望通过屋顶农场增加本地粮食产量,成功渡过由于新冠造成的粮食危机。
【16题详解】
根据上文“Singapore, a country with a great population, produces only about 10 percent of its own food needs. Only 1 percent of Singapore’s 724 square ki lometers is currently used for agriculture.(人口稠密的新加坡所生产的粮食仅能满足其自身需求的10%。
新加坡724平方公里的土地中目前只有1%用于农业。
)”可知,本段讲述新加坡人口稠密,农业占地少,粮食生产不能满足自身需求,因此推断那里的生产成本高。
故选D。
【17题详解】
根据上文“Singapore has announced new measures designed to quickly increase local food production in the next ten years, including rooftop farming.( 新加坡宣布了旨在迅速增加本地粮食产量的新措施,其中包括屋顶农场。
)”可推断,此处讲述新加坡出台增加粮食产量的计划,空格处应继续讲述这个措施,G项“在2030年前用本地生产的食物来满足新加坡30%的营养需求。
”是该计划的一部分,故选G。
【18题详解】
空格上文“This plan includes efforts to find new farming spaces, such as industrial area s and empty building spaces.( 该计划包括努力寻找替代性耕种空间,例如工业区和空置建筑空间。
)”讲述提高农业产量的措施,因此推断空格处应是继续讲述措施,E项“它还呼吁加入新技术以改善耕作方式。
”是对计划提高农作物产量的措施,also说明与上文内容一致,故选E。
【19题详解】
根据下文“It is to raise local food production levels to make up for climate change and population growth that could threaten worldwide food supplies.( 其目标是提高当地粮食产量,以弥补可能威胁全球粮食供应的气候变化和人口增长。
)”可推断,此处讲述计划的目标,空格处应提到目标,因此推断B项“新加坡食品局说它的目标是具体的”符合语境,it指代the goal,故选B。
【20题详解】
根据上文“The plan were announced as the worldwide spread of COVID-19 has caused shortages of many products, including food in some areas. Limitations on population movements around the world have weaken supply chains and raised concern about worsening shortages and price
increases.( 宣布该计划是因为新冠肺炎在世界范围内的传播已经导致了许多产品短缺,包括某些地区的食品短缺。
对全球人口流动的限制削弱了供应链,并引发了人们对短缺加剧以及价格上涨的担忧。
)”可知,此处讲述了计划宣布的原因,新冠危机导致人们对食物的担忧,因此宣布这个计划,是为了表明有足够的食物来度过Covid-19危机。
故选F。
