Now I’d like to tell you about the courses you can do on Saturday mornings. You can learn a lot about things like science and maths at school. These courses are really about giving you students the chance to come and find out wildlife. It’s an ar ea that tends to get forgotten. We usually take students to a wild place that’s near their home. Sometimes we go to a beach or a lake, ⑱but we’ve planned for you to go to a forest this time.That’s the closest place for you, and the easiest to get to. Taking part in our activities means you get to do all sorts of things including building a fire, which you wouldn’t normally be allowed to do at home. While you’re with us, we’ll also show you how to make things out of different materials. On the last course, everyone designed backpacks which they were very pleased with. ⑲This time we’d get you to design and make a birdhouse. When it is finished, you can take it home and show it to your family. We think you’ll really enjoy this. Now, we’d like you to come and do some activities with us. ⑳ You spend three hours each week with us and the courses last for 12 weeks. That might sound a long time, but we think you’ll not be sorry when it’s over. Now, any questions?

With her husband suffering from a congenital(先天性的)kidney condition，in 2013 Michele gave him one of hem.Gay said:“I needed to be hooked up to a dialysis(透析)machine.I had no quality of life at all.However，I felt great as soon as I woke up after the operation.I told her I’d do the same for her.”

【解析】
这是一篇说明文。

文章提到了四对结婚超过20年的夫妻，在一方配偶遭受疾病困扰的情况下，细心照料，甚至不惜捐赠自己的身体器官来挽救配偶的故事。

【21题详解】
细节理解题。

第三段第一句“Gay said:“ I needed to be hooked up to a dialy sis(透析)machine. I had no quality of life at all. However，I felt great as soon as I woke up after the operation. I told her I’d do the same for her.”” 可知Michele Johnson的丈夫Gay在手术前很长一段时间必须做透析，故选B。

【22题详解】
细节理解题。

第五段第二句“Stephen said: “I was diagnosed with adult polycystic kidney disease five years ago. Patricia took good care of me and donated a kidney. This has brought us even closer.””可知Stephen Heavyside的妻子照顾他并捐赠了一个肾给他，因此他将妻子视为他的英雄，故选D。

【23题详解】
推理判断题。

分析四段介绍可知每一对夫妻的结婚时间都超过了20年，故B选项正确；第四段第二句：Brenda was told five years ago she needed a kidney transplant.可知Brenda夫妻中是妻子Brenda 需要肾移植，故A选项中“四位妻子都捐了肾给他们的丈夫”的说法是错误的，故排除；分析文章，以及根据第三段第一句“With her husband suffering from a congenital(先天性的)kidney condition”可知只有Michele Johnson的丈夫患有先天性的肾疾病，故C选项“所有的病人都患有先天性肾疾病”是错误的，故排除C选项；根据文章内容可知，这四对夫妻都是通过对彼此的照顾和捐赠器官的方式来表达自己的爱意的，并没有用爱和巧克力来宣告彼此的爱情，故D选项错误。

综上，最终选B。

B
Does your school have any problems with discipline? What happens when students step out of line? Here are some examples of bad behaviour:
◎Playing truant(missing school without permission from parents).
◎Stealing，smoking，hitting，swearing(说脏话)，running，kissing.
◎Cheating in exams.
◎Calling a teacher or another pupil bad names.
◎Not doing homework.
◎Not listening or not paying attention in lessons.
◎Wearing unsuitable clothes.
Here are some of the ways that UK school children can be punished:
Exclusion:a pupil is asked to leave the school and not come back.The pupil has to find a new school or a different method of education.
Suspension:a pupil cannot enter the building or attend lessons until the school has a meeting about their situation.Suspension can last from one to 45 days.The pupil is usually given work to do at home with a special teacher.
Detention:a pupil is asked to stay after school and work for 30—60 minutes before they Can leave.
Lines:a pupil has to write a sentence many times(e.g.100 or more)on a sheet of paper，e，g，“I must not shout in class”.
Freya MacDonald，a 15-year-old pupil from Scotland，made the news when she refused to accept her school’s punishment.Her family says that she was given 11 detentions for trivial things in class and coming into school through a fire door.
Freya says that repeated detentions disrupted her fight to an education under Scottish law and made it difficult for her to learn.She refused to return until the school respected her civil rights.She wants the headmaster and her teachers to sign a letter to promise this.Hundreds of schools in Scotland were told not to use detention as a punishment because of her legal action.
Many UK schools now give parents a home-school contract，explaining their discipline and rules.Parents must sign this document to agree that they accept the school’s rules and discipline and that they are responsible for their child’s behaviour.
24. What does the text mainly talk about?
A. Some examples of bad behaviour in schoo1.
B. Common discipline and rules in UK schools.
C. How UK schools discipline and punish students.
D. What UK parents think of school punishment.
25. What do we know about suspension in UK schools?
A. It is the most serious punishment for students.
B. A pupil is not permitted to come back to schoo1.
C. It forces students to write a critical self-review.
D. A pupil can come back within one and half a month.
26. What did Freya’s legal action result in?
A. She didn’t want to study at a11.
B. Many schools cancelled detention to punish students.
C. She didn’t step out of line after that.
D. Teachers signed a letter to respect her civil rights.
27. Why do many UK schools sign a contract with parents?
A. To make it easy for students to learn.
B. To help parents know about school rules.
C. To share responsibility for their child’s actions.
D. To avoid their own responsibility for education.
【答案】24. C 25. D 26. B 27. C
【解析】
这是一篇说明文。

Today，we are constantly bombarded with media reports about research on the right diet to follow to help us maintain a healthy lifestyle or lose weight—but it’s hard to know which one to pick and，once chosen，it's harder still to stick to it.And now there’s another choice to get our teeth into.
A flexitarian(弹性素食者)diet involves eating plant—based foods and only occasionally eating meat and fish.This eating style allows you to supplement some ingredients that you wouldn’t get in a stricter vegan(素食主义者)diet—another trend growing in popularity.And like veganism，flexitarianism isn’t about eating carefully to help you lose a few pounds—it’s something people choose for ethical reasons，to help the planet.And a study into the global food system and how it affects the climate，has found that eating mainly plant-based foods is one of three key steps towards a sustainable future for all by 2050.
This research found that food waste will need to be halved and farming practices will also have to improve to achieve this.But without a single solution，a combined approach is needed.Dr Marco Springmann from the University of Oxford was one of the lead authors of the report.He told the BBC“We really found that a combination of measures would be needed to stay within environmental limits and those include changes towards healthier more plant—based diets.”
But whereas vegans think it's wrong for animals to be killed for food，flexitarians believe eating meat once in a while is acceptable.And Dr Springmann agrees—as long as we“treat it as a luxury，it’s probably OK but you shouldn’t have more than one serving of red meat，which includes beef and pork，per week.”And here’s another fact to digest:If we moved to this type of diet，the study found that greenhouse gas emissions from agriculture would be cut by more than half.
28. What is the purpose of the first paragraph?
A. To lead to the topic.
B. To entertain the readers.
C. To ask for information.
D. To present an idea.
29. From the text，we can know that a flexitarian diet__________.
A. is the most popular eating style
B. involves eating no meat
C. benefits the environment
D. only balances the nutrition
30. What does Dr Marco Springmann agree with?
A. It’s wrong to kill animals for food.
B. Improving farming practices makes no sense.
C. A plant-based diet has nothing to do with climate change.
D. Combined measures are needed for environmental protection.
31. What can be the suitable title for the text?
A. Methods of keeping fit
B. Choose a flexitarian diet
C. Measures to protect the environment
D. Keep a strict vegan diet
【答案】28. A 29. C 30. D 31. B
【解析】
这是一篇说明文。

介绍了一种可以帮助我们保持健康的生活方式或者减肥的饮食方式：弹性素食者饮食，它包括吃植物性食物，偶尔吃肉和鱼。

作者指出这种饮食方式将有益于保护环境。

【28题详解】
判断推理题。

根据第一段“Today，we are constantly bombarded with media reports about research on the right diet to follow to help us maintain a healthy lifestyle or lose weight—but it’s hard to know which one to pick and，once chosen，it's harder still to stick to it. And now there’s another choice to get our teeth into.”段意：今天，我们不断地被各种各样的媒体报道，这些报道都是关于研究正确的饮食来帮助我们保持健康的生活方式或减肥的。

但很难知道选择哪一种，一旦选择了，就更难坚持下去。

现在我们有另一个选择。

段落先是引出话题，接着由最后一句引出下文，故第一段的目的是引出主题。

故选A。

【29题详解】
判断推理题。

第二段最后一句“And a study into the global food system and how it affects the climate，has found that eating mainly plant-based foods is one of three key steps towards a sustainable future for all by 2050.”可知一项针对全球粮食系统和它如何影响气候,发现主要吃植物性食物是三个关键步骤之一,在2050年一个可持续发展的未来。

由此可推理从文章中我们可以知道弹性素食者饮食能有益于环境，故选C。

【30题详解】
细节理解题。

根据倒数第二段最后一句“We really found that a combination of measures would be needed to stay within environmental limits and those include changes towards healthier more plant—based diets.”从Dr Marco Springmann的话中可知他赞成环境保护需要综合措施。

故选D。

【31题详解】
主旨大意题。

根据文章内容可知，主要为说明弹性素食者饮食的优点，它有益于环境，可以减少温室气体的排放，因此最好的标题是“选择弹性素食者饮食”，故选B。

D
Developed by researchers and designers specializing in typography(印刷术)and behavioral science，Sans Forgetica is a new font(字体)designed to help readers better remember the information they read by forcing them to spend a bit more time on each word，
The design of Sans Forgetica is based on a font called Albion，but with substantial modifications(修改)to reduce familiarity and attain its goal of engaging the brain more and helping the reader retain(保留) more information.It was developed by scientists at RMIT University in Melbourne，Australia，who believe it could help students studying for exams.
“We believe this is the first time that specific principles of design theory have been combined with specific principles of psychology theory in order to create a font，”Behavioral economist Jo Peryman told DW.
If fonts are too familiar，readers often glance over them without their brain creating may memories of what was read.At the same time，if a font is too outlandish，the brain has to struggle too much to decipher(破译)it while neglecting the retention of information.According to its developers，“Sans Forgetica lies at a sweet spot where just enough obstacle has been added to create that memory retention.”Its modifications force readers to spend mo r e time，but not too much time，reading each word，allowing the brain to engage in deeper cognitive processing.
So does Sans Forgetica actually work? Does it help readers better remember the information they read? So far，studies have shown that it can make a difference，although not a significant one.
One experiment had 96 participants recall word pairs presented in three different fonts.They remembered 69 percent of the word pairs written in Sans Forgetica，compared to 61 percent for the other fonts.In a different experiment，303 students took a mock(模拟)multiple-choice exam，and whenever the text was presented in Sans Forgetica，they remembered 57 percent of the text，compared to only 50 percent of the surrounding text written in Arial font.
So Sans Forgetica won’t give you the memory of an elephant，but if you’re the kind of person who believes every little bit helps，it might be worth a try.
32. What can we know about the new font?
A. It is not beneficial to the study.
B. It is more advanced than Albion font.
C. It’s based on principles of psychology theory.
D. It helps readers better remember the information.
33. What does the underlined word“outlandish”in paragraph 4 mean?
A. Strange.
B. Contradictory.
C. Splendid.
D. Ugly.
34. What’s the main idea of paragraph 4?
A. Why Sans Forgetica is popular.
B. The disadvantages of the new font.
C. How Sans Forgetica works.
D. The unique character of the new font.
35. Why are two experiments mentioned in paragraph 6?
A. To advertise the new font.
B. To prove Sans Forgetica is effective.
C. To show Arial font is successful.
D. To explain how Sans Forgetica serves readers.
【答案】32. D 33. A 34. C 35. B
【解析】
这是一篇说明文。

介绍了一种新字体Sans Forgetica字体，通过强迫读者在每个单词上花更多的时间来帮助他们更好地记住所读的信息。

并通过两组实验对比证明了其有效性。

【32题详解】
细节理解题。

第一段最后一句“Sans Forgetica is a new font(字体)designed to help readers better remember the information they read by forcing them to spend a bit more time on each word”可知Sans Forgetica这种新字体通过强迫读者在每个单词上花更多的时间来帮助他们更好地记住所读的信息，即它可以帮助读者更好地记忆信息，故选D。

【33题详解】
词义猜测题。

根据后文“the brain has to struggle too much to decipher(破译)it while neglecting the retention of information”句意：当大脑忽略了信息的保留时，它不得不努力去理解它。

可推理上文划线部分的词语意思应为“陌生的”，A. Strange陌生的；B. Contradictory矛盾的；C. Splendid灿烂的；
D. Ugly丑陋的。

故选A。

【34题详解】
主旨大意题。

根据第四段倒数第一、二句“Sans Forgetica lies at a sweet spot where just enough obstacle has been added to create that memory retention.” Its modifications force readers to spend more time，but not too much time，reading each word，allowing the brain to engage in deeper cognitive processing.可知为说明Sans Forgetica字体的工作原理，是设置恰到好处的障碍，迫使读者花更多的时间阅读每个单
词，以让大脑进行更深层次的认知过程。

故第四段的大意是说明Sans Forgetica字体如何工作的，故选C。

【35题详解】

根据第六段第二句“They remembered 69 percent of the word pairs written in Sans Forgetica，compared to 61 percent for the other fonts.”可知第一组实验中参与者记住了69%用Sans Forgetica字体写的词组，而其他字体这一比例为61%；和最后一句“they remembered 57 percent of the text，compared to only 50 percent of the surrounding text written in Arial font”可知第二组实验中用Sans Forgetica字体的一组记住了57%，而Arial字体的一组只有50%。

由此可以推理第六段提到两组实验的目的是证明Sans Forgetica字体的有效性。

故选B。

根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

选项中有两项为多余选项。

It could happen anywhere at any time.___36___ Most people，at one time or another，have been on the receiving end of a random act of kindness.In a sometimes cold world where people can be so focused on what they’re doing，a random act of kindness can make all the difference.
They can be relatively insignificant.Hannah Bailey from London，for example，told the Metro newspaper about how she was given her fruit and vegetable shopping for free.The seller did her a kindness when it emerged she didn’t have any change to pay.___37___
The city of Naples has long had a tradition called‘caffè sospeso’.When buying coffee，a person who has recently been lucky would purchase two cups but only drink one，leaving the second one anonymously(匿名)，out of the goodness of their heart，for a poor person to claim for free.___38___ However，in some cases，these little acts can be a matter of life and death.Take，for example，the unnamed commuter，who in June 2018 fell off a station platform onto an electric railway track in Toronto，Canada.A quick-thinking，hut even now unknown，bystander selflessly leapt down to pull him to safety.
So，why do it? ___39___ The people never meet again.According to UK charity The Mental Health Foundation，acts like these can“give our lives new purpose，show us other perspectives on our own problems and even make us feel content.”
___40___ Hold open a door for someone，deliver a compliment—even give up your seat on a bus.Help someone who is in need.It takes all kinds.It needn’t be anything huge.One day，whether you need it or not，someone might help you in your hour of need.
A.So give it a try.
B.Be brave to face challenges.
C.Often，the acts aren’t paid back.
D.She was happy about it all day.
E.She was in low spirits the whole day.
F.This tradition is now more common worldwide.
G.It’s often unexpected，but almost never unappreciated.
【答案】36. G 37. D
38. F 39. C
40. A
【解析】
