Prague is cracking! My sister was right. It really is one of Europe’s most popular tourist attractions, which has beautiful old buildings. So far, my favorite place is Prague Castle. I think it is the largest ancient castle in the world. Prague also has a lot of cultural events, like the World Dance Festival. I went to a ballet (芭蕾舞剧) just last night.
----------- Lily I’ve come to Shanghai at the right time. Summer has begun, but it is not too hot yet. Yesterday was the Dragon Boat Festival. It was exciting! If you come to Shanghai, you should see the Bund---a street with very nice shops, nightclubs, and hotels. There are many tourists there. It has some wonderful buildings from the 1930s.
I went on a night cruise(乘船游览) of the Huangpu River last night. I met some great people on the boat, mostly foreigners, like me.
------------Stan Buenos Aires is a fun city, but six days is not enough time for a visit! I’m staying near the mile-long shopping street called Calle Florida. It is a great place to meet people and watch dancers perform that tango. Buenos Aires is the birthplace of the tango.
I also spent a day in the suburb of Tigre. It’s about 30 km from the capital,
and you can get there quickly by train. However, I chose to take a boat on the canals(运河) of the Paraná Delta.

I began learning playing the violin when nine, and the next year I began studying under Natalie Ghent, who was my teacher until I left high school.
Once, Mrs. Ghent held a concert(音乐会) for her students. I played near the end of it. After I played a while, I forgot the music. No matter how hard I tried, I couldn't think of it. So I had to stop and looked at the pianist's music. When the whole concert was over, I cried hiding in my overcoat.
Mrs. Ghent came to comfort(抚慰) me. Then she told us about a coming concert, and she hoped I would go there with her. I remember that the concert was on my birthday in March. It was great, as Mischa Elman was going to perform(表演) at Carnegie Hall.
My teacher decided to buy the best tickets as my birthday present.
Carnegie Hall is quite beautiful with all the lights on. I had never been in such a concert hall before, and was impressed by the size as well. I don't remember what Elman played. I only remember that his playing was beautiful. I have seen films of him in recent years, and have been attracted by his performance, but I don't remember the music he played that night. What I remember most is that Mrs. Ghent spoke to me in a low voice from time to time that he had forgotten something or played a wrong note, or had made some other kinds of mistakes.
When I teach students to play the violin now, I tell my students who are in dread of making mistakes that if they aren't going to make a mistake, they will never play beautiful music.
4. When the concert was over, the writer cried because_________.
A. the concert was such a big success.
B. she found she didn't have a gift for music.
C. no one tried to help her during her performance.
D. she felt sad about her performance.
5. Mrs. Ghent decided to take the writer to that concert mainly because____________ .
A. she wanted to comfort her.
B. she wanted to teach her an important lesson.
C. she wanted to let her go to a perfect concert.
D. she wanted to let her know she really cared about her.
6. By going to the concert, the writer has most probably learnt that__________.
A. there are no really great performers.
B. Mischa Elman is not a good performer.
C. even the best players make mistakes.
D. Mischa Elman's performance can't impress others.
7. What does the underlined part “in dread of 〞in the last paragraph mean?
A. afraid of.
B. careful with.
C. angry at.
D. interested in.
【答案】4. D 5. B 6. C 7. A

【4题详解】
细节理解题。

根据第二段中No matter how hard I tried, I couldn't think of it. So I had to stop and looked at the pianist's music. When the whole concert was over, I cried hiding in my overcoat.〔不管我怎么努力，我就是想不起来。

所以我不得不停下来，看着钢琴师演奏音乐。

整个音乐会完毕时，我躲在大衣里哭了。

【5题详解】
推理判断题。

根据第四段中What I remember most is that Mrs. Ghent spoke to me in a low voice from time to time that he had forgotten something or played a wrong note, or had made some other kinds of mistakes.〔我记得最清楚的是Ghent教师不时地低声对我
说，他忘记了什么东西，或者者吹错了音，或者者犯了别的什么错误。

〕的内容可知教师借助听音乐会的时机让作者明白，优秀的演奏家也有犯错的时候，故Ghent教师带作者去听音乐会主要是想教她很重要的一课。

应选B。

如第四小题，根据下文if they aren't going to make a mistake，they will never play beautiful music．假如他们不犯错，他们就永远不会演奏出美妙的音乐，可推断作者是对那些害怕犯错的学生说的。

故划线短语意思为“害怕〞，应选A。

C
Many people believe eating healthily is expensive—and more costly than buying junk foods. But our new research, published in the BMC Pubic Health，shows this isn't the truth.
Most of the Australian family food budget(预算)is being spent on junk foods and drinks that are high in fat, sugar and salt.
Less than 7% of Australians eat healthily. The Australian adults〔成年人〕 get at least 35% of their energy from junk foods and drinks. As a result, two­thirds of adults (63%) and one­quarter of children are overweight.
We used the Australian Health Survey 2021－2021 and the suggestions of the Australian Dietary Guidelines to model healthy diets(饮食) for a family of two adults and two children every two weeks. We collected food prices in supermarkets and stores in high and low­socioeconomic (社会经济地位低的)areas in Brisbane，and compared the diet prices with family incomes〔收入〕.
In both areas, a family of two adults and two children spend about 18% more on present diets than would be required to buy healthy diets. About 58% of the food budget
for present diets is spent on junk foods, including takeaway foods(14%)，and sugary drinks(4%)．
In the low­socioeconomic area，a family of two adults and two children spend $640.20 every two weeks on their present diets，but could buy a healthy diet for $560.93 every two weeks. In the high­socioeconomic area，these numbers are $661.92 and $580.01.
Supermarket food prices were about 3% higher in the high­socioeconomic areas. Takeaway foods were also relatively more expensive，but sugary drinks were priced similarly in both areas.
Present diets cost more than healthy diets，so it is surely not the price that helps to drive preferences for unhealthy choices.
8. What did the researchers find?
A. Most Australian kids have fat problems.
B. Half Australians live on junk foods.
C. Most Australians eat unhealthily.
D. Australians have a preference for sweet foods.
9. How did the researchers get the result?
A. By doing the study online.
B. By making a comparison.
C. By carrying out interviews.
D. By asking personal questions.
10. What can we learn from Paragraph 5?
A. Australian foods are healthier.
B. Healthy foods are becoming more expensive.
C. People choose junk foods for their low prices.
D. A healthy diet is actually cheaper.
11. What might the following paragraph be about?
A. Why people choose junk foods.
B. The harm of junk foods.
C. How we can eat healthily.
D. The advantages of a healthy diet.
【答案】8. C 9. B 10. D 11. A
【解析】
【分析】
这是一篇说明文。

新研究说明购置垃圾食品比购置安康食品的价格更贵，作者将饮食方面的支出和家庭收入进展比照，从而得出研究结论，同时对得出的数据进展了分析说明。

【8题详解】
细节理解题。

根据第三段第一句的“Less than 7% of Australians eat healthily.〔不到7%的澳大利亚人饮食安康。

〕〞可知，大多数澳洲人饮食不安康。

应选C。

【9题详解】
推理判断题。

根据第四段最后一句We collected food prices in supermarkets and stores in high and low­socioeconomic areas in Brisbane, and compared the diet prices with family incomes.〔我们搜集了布里斯班高、低社会经济地区超和商店的食品价格，并将饮食价格与家庭收入进展了比拟。

〕可知，研究者们通过使用来自Australian Health Survey 的调查数据，然后搜集各超的食品价格，最后再把饮食方面的支出和家庭收入进展比照，从而
得出研究结论。

即研究人员通过比拟得出了结果。

应选B。

【10题详解】
细节理解题。

根据第五段In both areas, a family of two adults and two children spend about 18% more on present diets than would be required to buy healthy diets. About 58% of the food budget for present diets is spent on junk foods, including takeaway foods(14%)，and sugary drinks(4%)．〔在这两个地区，一个有两个成年人和两个孩子的家庭在现有饮食上的花费比购置安康饮食所需的花费多18%。

目前，58%的食物预算都花在了垃圾食品上，包括外卖食品(14%)和含糖饮料(4%)。

〕可知，研究结果说明，垃圾食品的花费已经超过安康食品，安康食品其实更廉价。

应选D。

【11题详解】
推理判断题。

根据最后一段Present diets cost more than healthy diets, so it is surely not the price that helps to drive preferences for unhealthy choices.〔如今的饮食比安康的饮食更贵，所以肯定不是价格促使人们选择不安康的饮食。

〕可知，作者认为目前人们在垃圾食品的消费上已经超过了安康食品，这说明人们选择垃圾食品的原因不是价格，而是其他原因。

由此判断接下来文章最有可能讨论人们选择垃圾食品的原因。

应选A。

【点睛】预测想象推理判断题。

常见的与预测相关的问题主要有：
What information will probably be provided following the last paragraph？
What do you think the author is most likely to suggest if he continues to write？What would……do in the end？
做这类题时，应通读全文，把握作者的写作思路，如文章可能按时间是开展的顺序描写，也可能按因果关系、比照关系等等来表达。

作者往往在前文提出几个要解决或者说明的问题，或者提出几个观点，然后在下文一一解释说明。

因此，我们可通过下文，找出作者已经说明
的问题或者观点。

如第四小题，根据最后一段Present diets cost more than healthy diets, so it is surely not the price that helps to drive preferences for unhealthy choices.〔如今的饮食比安康的饮食更贵，所以肯定不是价格促使人们选择不安康的饮食。

〕可知，作者认为目前人们在垃圾食品的消费上已经超过了安康食品，这说明人们选择垃圾食品的原因不是价格，而是其他原因。

由此判断接下来文章最有可能讨论人们选择垃圾食品的原因。

应选A。

D
Building a five-star hotel in the middle of a valuable wilderness(荒野) without damaging(破坏) the environment might not be easy, but it is far from impossible. The King Pacific Lodge in British Columbia's Great Bear Rainforest shows that if enough care and attention is taken, the task is possible.
Unlike many other hotel building plans, no trees were cut down and no land was wasted to build it. The Lodge does not have the same location〔位置〕 but sits on a floating boat pulled into the sea bay in May, till September. Those wishing to stay in one of its seventeen rooms must access it by boat or seaplane. Each guest staying at the Lodge is charged 3% tax〔税〕 on the protection of the natural resources, but is given the chance to see whales and bears. And since these are the main attractions of the area and of the Lodge, the management knows well that in order to stay in business they must make the area untouched.
In 2000, the Lodge management signed an agreement with the native(外乡的) Gitga'at people. Together they work for the benefit of the area. The Lodge knows that the native tribe 〔部落〕is the owners of the land, so it pays the tribe for the use of their
land and even supports the native youth and employs the tribe's people. They, in turn, teach the newcomers about the local culture.
The King Pacific Lodge is one of a growing number of tourism companies that manage to minimize their environmental damage to win the approval〔批准〕of the local government where they set up their business. These companies pay more attention to environmental protection and are careful to use natural resources and protect endangered animals. Realizing how destructive tourism can be, they want to avoid the love-it-to-death effect of tourism.
12. From the passage, we know that the King Pacific Lodge______________.
A. follows other hotels’ building plans.
B. is less popular among tourists.
C. is far away from an important wilderness.
D. has been created after careful consideration.
13. Which of the following statements is TRUE?
A. The King Pacific Lodge is in an area without any trees.
B. The King Pacific Lodge can be moved from place to place.
C. Guests in the King Pacific Lodge can take part in programs about the protection of nature.
D. Guests in the King Pacific Lodge have to pay extra money for the boat to get there.
14. According to paragraph 3, we learn that some of the native people ____________.
A. want to learn the newcomers' culture.
B. are not willing to sell their land.
C. are employed by local government to work for the Lodge.
D. may have the chance to work at the Lodge.
15. According to the passage, the tourist industry__________.
A. will always do harm to the environment.
B. cares little about the importance of environmentally friendly tourism.
C. can do less damage to the environment.
D. always has a disagreement with the local government.
【答案】12. D 13. B 14. D 15. C
【解析】
这是一篇说明文。

主要说明了在一片珍贵的荒野中建造的一座五星级酒店King Pacific旅馆，它坐落在一艘浮动船上，不占用土地，不砍伐树木。
