But American schools also have their rules. If the students break the rules, they will get punishment（惩罚）, too.On the first day of a new term, 128 students were sent home for wearing the wrong clothes. There are altogether l, 200 students in the school. Usually only 20 students break the school dress rule every day. So the headmaster Theresa Mayerik said it was the worst new term she had seen.At Morton High School, students' favorite clothing such as baggy（宽大）trousers, low-necked and tank tops（紧身短背心）are not allowed in classroom. Some students think they have the right to choose what to wear, but the headmaster doesn't think so. "I'm supportive if half the students were sent home because 99% will get the message that our school are for education." "Freedom" doesn't mean "free of restrictions（约束）".That is to say there is no total freedom in the world, no matter in the U.S.A or in China.1．Many Chinese students think that _______________.A．American students are very free at schoolB．American students are not so clever as themC．American students don't love their school at allD．American students obey their school rules2．128 Students of Morton High School were sent home for___________.A．not finishing their homework B．being late for schoolC．not wearing the right clothes D．not cleaning the classroom3．Some students in Morton High School think that they have the right to __________.A．decide when to go to school B．choose what to wearC．eat and drink in class D．do what they want4．What does the underlined word "supportive" mean in Chinese?A．高兴的B．支持的C．害怕的D．难过的5．What's the writer's attitude to the school dress rule?A．Agree. B．Disagree. C．Not sure. D．Not mentioned.B14、A large number of people in the world eat fast food. Whenever you go into a fast food restaurant, you can see lots of people enjoying their meals there. How do you know in which country people like fast food best?The English people are the world’s biggest fans of fast food, while the French are the least interested in quick meals, according to a survey done last year. The survey of thirteen countries shows 45﹪o f the English people say they can’t give up fast food because it’s delicious. And 44﹪of Americans and 37﹪of Canadians say the same. The French, proud of their delicious and high-class cuisine, don’t like fast food. 81﹪of them think it is unhealthy, followed by 75﹪of the Japanese.How about the Chinese? How often do you have hamburgers or fried chicken? It doesn’t matter whether you like western fast food or Chinese food. The most important thing is to keep a balanced diet.1．From the survey we know _______ like fast food best.A．the Chinese B．the French C．the English2．The survey shows _______ of Americans like fast food.A．37﹪B．44﹪C．75 ﹪3．According to the survey, some can’t give up fast food because.A．it’s cheap B．it’s healthy C．it’s delicious4．The underlined word “cuisine” in the passage means _______.A．food B．house C．water5．The survey is about _______.A．western countries B．fast food C．restaurants in the worldC15、People often decide where to live based on the natural resources in the area. Natural resources are things that are useful to people and come from the earth. Materials for building houses are natural resources. So are foods, such as fruits, vegetables, animals that could be caught or hunted and water.The weather and land forms let certain things grow in different areas. They also determine(决定)which living things will be able to grow there. Areas with very rich soil are made to be good farming communities. Poor soil may send farmers to look for better places. However, areas with poor soil may attract those who have other purposes for the land. Poor soil doesn’t matter if you want to build a factory. It also doesn’t matter if it grows grass well.Each area attracts people based on their interests and purposes. Areas that support many different interests will naturally have larger populations. You may not think of the mountains, lakes or oceans as natural resources. In fact they are. Villages and cities built near water sources have been the most successful. People who want to catch fish for a living choose to live by the ocean, instead of the desert. People living near water can use it to meet their daily needs.Places that are difficult to reach will naturally have fewer people. Places that are high on mountain tops are not very desirable to most people. Neither are places that are in the middle of hot, dry deserts.For too long, humans have destroyed resources. We have been using up those that can’t be easily replaced.Renewable(可再生的) resources are those that can be replaced easily. We are lucky to have many resources that are renewable, such as the sun, wind, water and trees. We need to use more renewable resources. This will protect our planet.1．Areas with very rich soil can be used as_______.A．fishing places B．ranching placesC．a factory D．farming communities2．What does the third paragraph mainly tell us?A．What people living near water live on except fishing.B．How big villages and cities by the oceans come out.C．People choose places to live according to interests and purposes.D．People don’t live in places that are difficult to reach.3．Which of the following does NOT belong to natural resources?A．Animals that could be caught. B．Beds, tables and chairs.C．The mountains, lakes or oceans. D．Materials for building houses.4．What is the best title for the passage?A．The natural resources. B．An area’s weather.C．How to choose your house. D．Renewable resources.5．This passage may come from________.A．a story B．a fashion magazine C．a school report D．a cartoon filmD16、Robots are increasingly being developed to think and act like humans. But it is difficult for engineers to create humor (幽默) in machines. Computer scientists have hoped to help them understand humor. But they failed again and again. Why is it so difficult?Kiki, a computer language expert (专家), studies humor at a university. “Most robots are powered by artificial intelligence (人工智能AI). But AI will never understand jokes like humans do.” He said, “The main problem is that AI system doesn’t have the sense of humor.”Other experts agree that context (语境) is very important to understand humor, both for humans and robots. In one project, Tristan Miller, a computer scientist, studied more than 10, 000 puns. Puns are a kind of joke that uses a word with two meanings. For example, you could say, “Balloons (气球) do not like pop music.” The word “pop” can be a way of saying popular music, or “pop” can be the sound a balloon makes when it explodes (爆炸). “A robot might not understand the joke because it doesn’t know the meaning of the puns.” Miller sa id.Although it’s difficult, some scientists say there are good reasons to keep trying to teach humor to robots. It can make machines understand humans better and serve humans better. And it can also help them to think more like humans.But other scientis ts don’t think it’s a good idea to teach humor to robots. They may find humor, but they may use itin a wrong way. Maybe bad AI will start killing people because it thinks it is funny. Besides, it may make some people feel not safe. The comedians (喜剧演员) may lose their jobs when the robots can understand humor.1．Kiki is an expert who studies ______ at a university.A．humans B．humor C．AI system D．robots2．What does the underlined word "pun" mean in Paragraph 3?A．语言B．笑话C．双关语D．同义词3．From the passage, we know that ______.A．AI system has the sense of humorB．context is very important to understand humor only for humansC．if robots understand humor, they can’t serve humans betterD．some scientist think it’s good to teach robots humor but others don’t4．If we put the passage into three parts, which of the following is the best?1 ②=Para. 2 ③=Para. 3 ④=Para. 4 ⑤=Para.5)A．①;②③④;⑤B．①;②③;④⑤C．①②;③④;⑤D．①②;③;④E17、In the middle of a really embarrassing moment, you might feel like you just want to disappear. Maybe you wish for a time machine that could send you back five minutes. Well, time machines are hard to come by in the real world, so finding a better way of getting through the humiliation(蒙羞的场面) is needed.Sometimes, embarrassment is caused by how we act after we make an unwanted thing. If the thing is a small one, you can just pretend it didn't happen, and many people won’t notice. On the other hand, if you stop, or get red in the face after you've messed up, people will really notice, and it will be hard to let the moment pass by. Of course, some embarrassing moments are too big or obvious for this plan to work.Sometimes when you meet or get caught in a really cringe-worthy(尴尬的) moment, it doesn't seem funny. Other people may laugh, but you just get red in the face and feel like curling up in a ball of shame. But there are some people who can laugh at their own mistakes. When they mess up, they laugh harder than their friends do! People likethisdon't stay embarrassed for long, because this can turn into another funny story. They might even make a joke about their mistake before anyone else gets the chance to.You shouldn't pretend a laugh if you really feel angry or embarrassed, but changing your attitude or outlook might be worth trying. Remember that a thing that makes you embarrassed today will probably make you laugh tomorrow. So why not try to laugh today?根据材料内容选择最佳答案，将其标号填入题前括号内。

Let's read what they have written.My hometown hero is my older brother, Jack. He always wants tohelp. During the COVID-19 pandemic, he volunteered his time atthe hospital. He went to visit our grandma to make sure she wasokay. He also made care packages for families in the community.My mom does everything she can to help our family and otherpeople.

But they might also encourage you to help change the world. Three girls, Kristen, Jenna and Marisa from New York, learned about a growing problem from a reading test they took. The problem is e-waste, short for electronic waste. The girls learned some dangerous chemicals （化学品）in e-waste can harm the environment and people. Later in the year, they had to come up with an idea for a science project. They remembered the interesting topic from their test. So the girls started a recycling drive to help other students and the community learn about properly recycling e-waste. They called themselves the E-Waste Girl"In our town, people recycle paper plastic and glass, but not electronics. What can we do" asked Marisa."How about asking our friends if they know how to recycle e-waste" suggested Jenna.The girls asked their friends, and nobody had heard anything about it. Many of their teachers didn't know either. So they taught everyone, including their teachers, to learn about properly recycling e-waste. Then they put recycling boxes in the school hall and asked the students to collect old cell phones, radios and other items. When the boxes were full, they sent them to a special recycling center. The recyclers took out the dangerous chemicals and disposed （处理）of them properly, so that they don't go into the air or the ground or the water.One big way people can help reduce e-waste is by buying smartly. So the girls strongly suggested considering electronics made with fewer dangerous chemicals and choosing electronics that will last several years.The girls' project also helped them become finalists in the We Can Change the World Challenge, a national student competition. The E-Waste Girls see a bright future in which projects like theirs will not be needed any more.24.How did the E-Waste Girls first learn about e-waste？______A. A friend told them about it.B. Recyclers taught them about it.C. They read about it in a reading test.D. A teacher talked about it in a science class.25.Why did the E-Waste Girls start a recycling drive？______A. To set up a recycling center in the town.B. To take part in a national student competition.C. To encourage people to buy electronics smartly.D. To teach people how to properly recycle e-waste.26.The E-Waste Girls' story mainly tells us that ______ .A. recycling e-waste is really difficultB. students can help to change the worldC. students should do more science projectsD. competitions bring students a bright futureCDo you have trouble remembering things you've read Scientists at RMIT University in Australia have come up with a new font（字体）that can help you remember-by making words harder to read.Fonts are used to make letters look a certain way on computers or in books. If you're writing a report, you can give a different look to the words in your report by choosing a different font. For example, you can make them look like they might look in a book, or you can make them look like handwriting.Scientists have discovered that people often remembered things better if it was a little bit harder for them to read. The scientists learned that if you are reading words that are difficult to recognize, your brain has to work a little bit harder to make sense of the words that your eyesare seeing. This extra work helps your brain remember the ideas better.Now scientists at RMIT in Australia have taken this idea and created a font just for remembering things. The font, called "Sans Forgetica"，is a little bit harder to read, on purpose. The name of the font is a joke of sorts. "Sans" means "without". When it's used for fonts, "sans" usually describes a font with simple lines. "Forgetica" sounds like the famous font "Helvetica". But taken together, the name "Sans Forgetica" means "Without Forgetting"There are two main things that make the font harder to read and easier to remember. Probably the most obvious one is that all of the letters have gaps（缺口）in them. When the letters have these gaps, the brain has to fill in the gaps to recognize them. This makes readers slow down and pay attention to what they read.The other surprising thing about Sans Forgetica is it slants（倾斜）backwards. You may be used to seeing words written in italics-letters that slant toward the right. Stephen Banham, who helped create Sans Forgetica says, "Backslants are only used in maps to show the position（位置）of rivers."When someone creates a new font, they often sell it. But RMIT is giving away their font for free, hoping that it will help students and other people who need to remember things.27.Why was Sans Forgetica created______A. To help people recognize difficult words.B. To help students practice handwriting.C. To help students write special reports.D. To help people remember things.28.What idea have the scientists taken to create Sans Forgetica？______A. Reading words with more letters exercises brains.B. The font with simple lines helps people read quickly.C. Working hard to recognize words improves memory.D. People like to read things that are a little hard for them.29.What can we learn from the passage______A. Letters in Sans Forgetica font slant toward the right.B. Letters that slant toward the left are uncommonly used.C. Gaps in letters make people interested in what they read.D. The brain pays no attention to the gaps in Sans Forgetica font.DWe've all felt confused before. The feeling of not knowing what theanswers or solutions are can make us feel useless, stupid, and cause usto worry.People are often likely to think the person who has all of the answersis smarter than the one who asks a lot of questions. As a result, peopleoften try to hide their confusion in different ways. People sometimes act as if they have the answers. At other times, people make guesses or create an answer even if they know it isn't right.But confusion might actually be a good thing. When we jump to an answer, we don't have time to explore（探索）the thing we're confused about. Instead of paying no attention to your confusion, accepting it and taking the opportunity to think about what's confusing can benefit our learning. In fact, scientific studies show that confusion actually leads to deeper understanding. A 2004 study explored six moods that people feel while learning, including upset, bored, and confused. They found that students who spent more of the lesson confused learned the most. In another study, scientists tried to confuse students by giving them contradicting（矛盾的）information. Students who expressed confusion during the lesson did better on the final test. Not knowing the answer to a problem gives us space to look at different ways to solve it. The feeling of confusion also encourages us to look more deeply into the problem. In the end, this helps us understand the topic on a deeper level.Confusion is also important for learning your identity（身份）. People find out their identity in two steps. The first step is exploration, where you try out different groups and values and see what fits. The next step is commitment，when you decide firmly（坚定地）about some parts of your identity. You make up your mind that you will act in a way that fits your identity. Exploring your identity can feel very confusing. But a study found that people who do the most exploring about who they are have better outcomes such as higher self-confidence andself-esteem（自尊）later in life.So, instead of trying to hide your confusion, try a new method, ask for help, or research different ways to deal with the problem to work through your confusion.30.Why does a person try to hide his confusion______A. Because he wants others to make good judgement on him.B. Because he has good ability to guess and create an answer.C. Because hiding his confusion helps him work out a solution.D. Because telling others his confusion will make them confused.31.What is the finding of the studies in Paragraph 3？______A. Good understanding leads to less confusion.B. Confusion can have helpful effect on learning.C. Digging deeply into a problem may cause confusion.D. Confusion prevents the development of self-confidence.32.The word "commitment" in Paragraph 4 probably means " ______ ".A. promiseB. imaginationC. challengeD. argument33.What is the writer's main purpose in writing this passage？______A. To call on readers to study confusion on a deeper level.B. To tell readers about the research results on confusion.C. To explain to readers it's normal to feel confused.D. To encourage readers to clear up their confusion.四、任务型阅读-简答（本大题共1小题，共10.0分）34.Our brains change in many ways as we grow.In September 2020，scientists published（发表）a study about one change that happens.It shows that as we grow, our brain processes words differently. The study was led by Elissa Newport, a doctor who studies and treats the brain at Georgetown UniversityMedical Center.The brain is an organ（器官）in the body. It controls how the body works. It also controls how we think and use our senses. It is divided into a right half and a left half. They are called hemispheres. The two hemispheres connect in the middle to send messages to each other.The study found that children have speech centers on both sides of their brains. Young children and teens use both sides of their brains to understand language. As we become adults, the brain only uses the left side for this task. This happens slowly over time. It starts around the time we learn to talk. It finishes when we are about 19 years old.Today's scientists have high-tech tools that can measure（测量）the brain. Functional magnetic resonance imaging （FMRI）is one of them. It can collect images（图像）ofblood flow in the brain. Scientists can study healthy, working brains with it. They can see when a part of the brain is active, or turned on. It shows up as a set of colors in an image.In Newport's study, 39 children and 14 adults tried to understand sentences. The team used FMRI to watch their brains. Each FMRI scan took many pictures of the brain. There were patches（斑块）of color in each picture. This showed which parts of the brain were getting the most blood. This was a sign that they were turned on and active.For the youngest kids, both sides of the brain became active when understandingsentences. The pictures showed many patches of color. By age 19，no activity showed up on the right side.Other scientists are doing research too. They are studying brain areas that process vision and memory.

People can reduce, reuse, or recycle waste instead of throwing it away． Matt and Sam decided to do an experiment．They wanted to see exactly how much waste the three R' could save．First． they collected the rubbish from six classrooms at their school．They divided the rubbish into three groups:．things that were reusable such． pencil or a marker that had been thrown away ．things that could be recycled such as cans, glass or paper．things that were truly wasteThen． Matt and Sam weighed each of the three groups．They learned that 84% of the total rubbish thrown away that day could be recycled or reused．They decided to do something about it．Matt and Sam presented the idea of starting a recycling programme to the school leader． Then they worked with the Student Council． They prepared brochures（手册） to send home to tell the students and their families about recycling．They stated in the brochure that recycling helps to keep our planet healthy．The school bought colored containers （容器） for each classroom．Each room received a blue container for paper and a green container for glass and cans． They also received a red container for real rubbish． Within a short time, each classroom in the school was sorting recyclable materials from rubbish before it was thrown．Mat and Sam decided to weigh the rubbish one more time．They wanted to cheek the school's progress．They collected the rubbish from the red containers from the same six classrooms as before．They sorted the rubbish into three groups again and weighed each group．This time, they were pleased to find that the red containers were filled with 90% waste that should be thrown away, Only 10% of recyclable materials had been thrown into the red containers． Matt and Sam were pleased with their school's effort at reducing waste on our planet．（1）By doing an experiment． Matt and Sam wanted to find out________．A what things could be reusedB what recyclable materials could be savedC how much waste the three R's could saveD how much waste their school produced a day．（2）What did Mott and Sam do in the recycling programme？________A They made a speech on recycling．B They wrote a report to the school leaders．C They bought colored containers for each classroom．D They helped students and their families know about recycling．．（3）Which word con best describe Matt and Sam？________A Responsible．B Friendly．C Independent．D Confident．．16. We see loges on signs． buildings, television． and even on the clothes wewear． Logos are used to stand for brands （品牌）． There are logos such as the Nike "swoosh"． the Apple logo and the colorful rings of the Olympic Games All of these logos are designed to attract our attention． They also help us remember a product or service connected to the logo． However, research performed at the University of California． Los Angeles finds that remembering the details of logos is very difficult． The researchers try to explain this．Logos are typically designed to be simple and easy to recognize, Yet the frequent exposure （频繁接触） to these logos can actually make our brains ________ the details of logos．It would be challenging 1o try to remember every single thing that crosses our path． We take in so much information every day that the brain works to notice information that does notneed to be stored, It allows the unimportant information to disappear gradually from our memory．The details of product logos are just the kind of information our brains tell us we do not need． This may be discouraging to logo designers and to companies that use these eye catching logos． But there ate still many business experts who believe in the importance of a recognizable logo．Even though the brain is likely to pay no attention to necessary details, it is also programmed for recognition． When we see logos over and over again, we become familiar （熟悉） with them．This repeated exposure leads our brains to remember the basic idea without all of the details． This general sense of memory has its own benefits．It can make us feel like we rally know the product behind the logo．In fact, familiarity with a logo can even make people feel more comfortable about buying or using certain products．Logos are everywhere we look today． Those people who create logos need to know that people will only remember what they believe i important． A clever design may be interesting, but most people will forget the details．（1）In the first paragraph． the writer mainly________．A introduces some famous brandsB describes the design of some logosC showy the popularity of famous brandsD explain the purpose of designing logos．（2）The word "overlook" in Paragraph 2 probably means "________"．A try to rememberB see the importance ofC take Do notice ofD fail to understand．（3）What can we learn from the passage？________A Business experts think the details of logos are unnecessary．B 0ur brains can choose which logos to notice and remember．C The repeated exposure to a logo can lead people to buy the product，D People know more about the products behind logos with more details．．（4）Which of the following would be the best title for the passage？________A What Makes a Good Logo？B What Can We See in a Logo？C Why 1s a GoodLogo Important？ D Why Should Logos Be Recognizable？．17. The students are quieting down in their seats． The teacher begins to give lessons, Then she asks a question for the class to answer． and the students all react in separate ways．Each student is special with different strengths and weaknesses． Because of thisfact, different students learn differently． While some may learn by quickly answering the teacher's question, speaking up with ease and comfort, others may learn just as well by listening to their classmates and teacher speak．These students should not be punished for learning the way they do, but when teachers grade class participation （参与）, that isexactly what they are doing．According to a survey carried out by Bonnie M． Miller a professor a University of Massachusetts Boston, 60% of her students believe that grading participation does not encourage them to participate more in class． They feel more comfortable expressing their thoughts if they know what they say will not be given a number later on．Some other students believe that when class participation in graded． Teachers are awarding outgoing students while punishing shy ones．Grading class participation sends the message that shy students are not good students． It makes then feel like they sold be outgoing． Loud, and able to learn by talking, which makes them feel uncomfortable．In my experience with eases where class participation was graded． I felt difficult to do well For example． instead of being able to fully focus on what my teacher and classmates said, my mind would race with the things that I could possibly share in the class discussion． Either I would be too slow in raising my hand, or feel too nervous to lift it at all Imagining my falling grades, wishing that I could somehow be a more outgoingperson, suddenly my thoughts would be interrupted by the sound of my classmates getting up to leave, and I would realize that I learned nearly nothing that class．What's more, by focusing on the students who talk the most in class, teachers fail to award students who may be good listeners﹣﹣ skill that is as important 85 being able to talk in frost of a group of people．Teachers can increase class participation by providing different ways of grading participation that are acceptable to different personalities and learning ways． For example, they can give students opportunities to write their ideas．Most importantly, teachers should create classrooms where students want to learn．（1）According to the passage， in a class where participation is graded，________．A most students are likely to act activelyB some students feel stressed to be who they areC students are forced to listen t0 their classmatesD students are encouraged to learn the way they prefer．（2）The writer talks about his own experience in Paragraph 5 to explain________．A why students care much about gradesB why listening is as important as speaking upC how grading participation influences learning processD how students feel when preparing for speaking up in class．（3）What's the writer's main purpose in writing the passage？________A To remind teachers of the importance of grading properly in class．B To tell students the effect their personalities have on learning．C To encourage teachers to keep students active in class．D To provide students with ways to participate in class．四、回答问题18.Keep Calm and Carry OnStuart Manley and his wife． Mary， run a second

fun ways．Some people have Created phrases like "Keep Calm and Dance On"，"Keep Calm and Call Morn" or "Keep Calm and Eat a Cupcake"， The slogan has become part of popular culture． The explanations of

Anyway, cleaning couldn't be that difficult, could it?There was a lot more to the job than you might expect. First, I'd collect all the things I needed and put them in my cart. Then I set to work on cleaning the rooms. I made the beds, cleaned the baths, and did some other work. It wasn't fun. In fact, it was unpleasant, especially at the beginning. The first time I made a bed, I didn't do it correctly, and the manager made cart me do it all over again. One of my workmates showed me what to do and I took notes, just like I did in school. It took ages for me to get it right but when I did, I felt happy and confident.Although it wasn't well paid, the job enabled me to party with my friends. It wasn't just the money that made it all worthwhile. For the first time I was able to spend time with adults other than my parents and teachers. If I didn't want to do the work, these grown-ups wouldn't try to force me to do it. It was up to me to push myself. That was one very important lesson for me to learn and one I never got taught in school.My time at the hotel also taught me that you can learn new skills from any kind of work, even a job you never thought you'd do. And at the same time, it showed me where I didn't want to be in the future. And I didn't want to be in a hotel cleaning for the rest of my life. I was looking for something a lot more challenging.21. What did the writer think of her job when she started doing it?A. Interesting.B. Easy.C. Unpleasant.D. Unimportant.22. Who pushed the writer to work when she didn't want to?A. The writer herself.B. Her parents.C. The hotel manager.D. Her workmates.23. From the story, we know that the writer ______.A. regretted doing the jobB. disliked her workmatesC. was satisfied with the paymentD. was open to learning new thingsBHave you considered being a writer? Maybe this is a dream you've had ever since you were young. But writing for a living is not easy, and before you start, you should be sure that you are doing it for the right reasons and go in with your eyes open.To be a writer, you need to get used to being alone. A writer must be ready to spend at least five hours a day alone, often in front of the computer. At the same time, remember that good stories are created through a lot of effort.Another question might be how to tell if you have a talent for writing. Perhaps you always got good grades at school for your writing, or you worked on school newspapers, or won prizes for your writing. Perhaps you may have had articles published(出版) in magazines. This shows you have good writing skills.Originality is always considered the heart of writing. It is important that tired old ideas and words do not appear in your writing. From the first page, the story should be like nothing anyone has ever read before. Try to surprise your reader at every turn and make your reader say, "Wow! I never expected that to happen!"Even though there are a lot of challenges, if you still want to be a writer, here are some ideas that might help. First, remember that your first draft(草稿) will never be perfect. The value of the first draft may be to start developing and organizing your ideas. Many successful writers write, rewrite, and rewrite again.When you write, put yourself in the place of the reader. Try to write stories that you would like to read yourself. If you are writing a passage only because you have to, your reader is certainly not going to enjoy it. Most, if not all, good writers read as much as possible. When you read other people's work, think about what makes for good writing and use that in your own writing. As a writer, you are a kind of educator. Make sure that you are well-informed about the things you write about.Doing research has helped many writers create more interesting and realistic stories. Writing is different for everyone. If writing is really for you, chances are you already know it deep down and have done for some time. If so, good luck!24. What is the most important thing for a writer?A. Aloneness.B. Interest.C. Creativity.D. Talent.25. The writer probably agrees that _______.A. writers should do research about what is writtenB. successful writers should write the first draft perfectlyC. writers should ask readers for advice about what to writeD. good writers should avoid following other writers’ writing styles26. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?A. Are You Talented at Writing?B. Do You Want to Be a Writer?C. Is Writing Different for Everyone?D. Do You Need Practice to Be a Writer?CBeing thankful and expressing it to others is good for our health and happiness. It also helps us build trust and closer relationships with the people around us.These benefits have mostly been seen when two people are involved: one person gives thanks and the other receives thanks. Now, a new study suggests that expressing gratitude(感谢) not only improves one-to-one relationships, but could bring whole groups together—inspiring(激发) a will to help and connect in people who simply see an act of gratitude.In this study, Sara Algoe and her team ran several experiments to find out how seeing gratitude influences people's feelings toward the thankful person and the person who is thanked.In one experiment, participants(参与者) were tasked with reading a movie review draft and underlining eye-catching parts for the reviewer's benefit. First they saw an example. Several lines of text were underlined, as the task required, but many mistakes were also corrected, showing effort that went beyond the task. Some participants could see a handwritten note from the reviewer saying, "Thank you so much for catching those mistakes!"Afterward, participants underlined parts in another article by the reviewer. Then researchers counted how many mistakes participants corrected, and asked them how much they might like to be friends with the reviewer.The results showed that participants who had seen a note of gratitude were more willing to correct mistakes and help out, and more likely to want to become friends with the reviewer, than those who hadn't.Algoe and her team also discovered from other survey questions that participants wanted to help and connect with the person receiving the gratitude. "That's because receiving gratitude marks you as a person who is effective at being supportive or helpful," says Algoe.These findings show that expressing gratitude not only strengthens the relationships between the people involved but also influences the people who see it in ways that could reverberate throughout a group. If people in a group notice others' good acts and thank them for their kindnesses, the whole group could be encouraged to be kinder to one another.Does this mean we should all express gratitude more often? Yes. We can give a hug, bring a gift of flowers, or just say thank you. Gratitude expression seems to be a special kind of emotional experience that is great for building relationships.27. What do we know about the experiment?A. Participants tried to make friends with the reviewer.B. Participants were asked to write a movie review draft.C. Participants were thanked for underlining eye-catching parts.D. Participants who saw a thank you note corrected more mistakes.28. Which of the following best matches the findings of the study?A. Tony is thanked a lot because he always helps others.B. Susan and Mike are friends and they always help each other.C. Linda is supportive in a group and becomes the group leader.D. Amy wants to be friends with John because he is thanked a lot.29. The words "reverberate throughout a group" in Paragraph 8 probably mean _______.A. attract more people to join a groupB. have an effect on everyone in a groupC. help group members develop their strengthsD. provide opportunities for everyone in a group30. What is the writer's main purpose in writing this passage?A. To introduce how to express gratitude properly.B. To explain why people show and receive gratitude.C. To encourage people to show thankfulness to others.D. To remind people of the importance of helping others.四、任务型阅读-简答（本大题共1小题，共10.0分）31. Cinema, but Not as We Know ItA friend recently asked me if I'd like to go to the cinema. Being a huge fan of the big screen, I said yes. I usually go to the cinema once or twice a week, so it's normal for me to spend a lot of money on the latest film. But when she told me the ticket cost £105, I was surprised. What's more, she said I'd receive my personalised character by email. Character?Was I going to act in the film? I prefer watching films to performing in them. And since when did it cost more than a hundred pounds to go to the cinema? Still, my friend was really interested in it, so I handed the money over.Then I carried out some online research into what I was spending my money on, I realised that I'd signed up for an immersive(沉浸式的) cinema experience. This is a type of cinema where both actors and the audience(观众) take part in a remake of a classic film. Before the performance, you receive information about your character, and you need to spend time getting to know the character.You also need to buy a costume(戏服). You need to dress and act like your character in theperformance.When I arrived, I was greatly surprised at how professional(专业的) everything looked. The set, music, and lighting were all wonderful. I felt like I was actually in the film, which, of course, is the whole point of this experience. It was a remake of an old film, so everyone was dressed in old-style clothes. I'd thought mine was pretty good, but when I saw how much effort others had made, I felt uneasy. If you don't enjoy dressing up, you'd better think twice about going. There was a mix of professional actors who played the main characters and members of the public, like me, who were given unimportant roles to play. The professional actors were fantastic and really supportive. They offered lots of encouragement to all of us.Was it worth the ticket price? I'd say so, yes. Would I go again? Of course, yes! But I probably need to go to a few acting classes first.(1) How did the writer feel about the price of the ticket at first?____________________________________________________(2) What do you need to do before performing in an immersive cinema?__________________________________________________________________________(3) How did the professional actors help the members of the public?______________________________________________________________________(4) Would you like to have an immersive cinema experience? Why or why not? (List at least tworeasons. )________________________________________________________________________________ ___________五、信息匹配（本大题共3小题，共6.0分）信息匹配。
