It was summer 2019 in Aurora, Colorado, when CBS News first met Finn Lanning, a math teacher, and Damien, his student who always stood out.

2019年夏天，在科罗拉多州的奥罗拉，CBS新闻第一次见到了数学老师芬恩·兰宁和他的学生达米恩，他们总是引人注目。

Lanning was astonished when Damien told him he was not coming back to ___1___. He sat Damien down and found out what his story was. He learned that Damien had a ___2___ in heart and was in foster (寄养) care because social services couldn’t find a foster family willing and able to meet his medical needs. He was ___3___ to leave school and move into a hospital.

当达米恩告诉朗宁他不回学校了时，他很吃惊。他让达米恩坐下来，了解他的故事。他得知达米恩患有心脏病，由于社会服务机构找不到愿意并能够满足他的医疗需求的寄养家庭，所以他被寄养。他被迫离开学校，住进了医院。

But the real ___4___ was that Damien needed a transplant desperately. A lot of times it’s ___5___ to get a transplant if someone doesn’t have a stable home to return to after surgery.

但真正的问题是达米恩迫切需要移植。很多时候，如果一个人在手术后没有一个稳定的家可以返回，就很难得到移植。

“It ___6___ me like a ton of bricks. I mean, you just can’t sit across from somebody you care about and hear them say something like that and know that you have room to help,” Lanning said. That’s how Lanning became a foster parent. He ___7___ Damien even though he’d been a confirmed bachelor (单身汉) who delighted in his childlessness.

它像一吨重的砖头一样砸在我身上。“我的意思是，你不能坐在你关心的人对面，听他们说这样的话，却知道你有帮助的空间，”兰宁说。这就是朗宁成为养父母的原因。他收养了达米恩，尽管他是一个坚定的单身汉，以他没有孩子为乐。

They got along smoothly, although Damien refused to get too excited. “I’m afraid the bubbles will burst one day. It’s kind of bad thinking about that, but some people actually do that. Like, they’ll be happy with you one day and then just kick you out the next,” Damien said. Lanning told him he’s not going anywhere, ___8___ Damien believes it or not.

他们相处得很融洽，尽管达米恩不太激动。我担心这些泡沫总有一天会破裂。这是一种不好的想法，但有些人确实这样做。比如，他们会在某天跟你在一起很开心，但第二天就会把你赶出去，达米安说。朗宁告诉他，不管达米恩信不信，他哪儿也不去。

In the nearly two years since CBS News shared their story, Damien was able to get a transplant and he’s a much ___9___ 15-year-old. “It’s like a dream come true,” Damien said.

It’s proof that sometimes ____10____ do end happily ever after.

在哥伦比亚广播公司分享了他们的故事后的近两年里，达米恩得到了移植，他15岁了，健康多了。“这就像梦想成真了，”达米恩说。

这证明了有时童话故事的结局确实是幸福的。

He made these trousers from a fabric called “denim”—a tough fabric ___11___ probably came from a town named Nimes in France. Many people now think the English word “denim” comes from the ___12___ (France) words “de Nimes”, which means “from Nimes”. Later, Strauss added special metal buttons to the trousers to make them even ___13___ (strong) and they immediately became very popular.

【答案】11. that/which；12. French；13. stronger；

Thank you. It’s my great honor to be given this award.

谢谢你！获得这个奖项是我的荣幸。

You cannot imagine that I have always been a late starter. Years ago, when I was 16, I took an important exam — GCE(General Certificate of Education), which turned out to be a failure. My dad was reading my report card and saw that my position in class was 29th, but the number in class was 29. It meant that I had achieved the distinction of being bottom of my class.

你无法想象我一直都是一个后起之秀。几年前，当我16岁的时候，我参加了一个重要的考试——GCE(普通教育证书)，结果失败了。我爸爸正在看我的成绩单，看到我在班上的位置是29，但在班上的数字是29。这意味着我获得了全班最后一名的殊荣。

I wasn’t lazy, and I was really trying. You can picture how I felt. Dad put his hand on my shoulder and said, “You can only do the best you can, but whatever you decide to do, make sure you love it.” He was a really sweet guy and a great man. I knew his attempt to hide his disappointment with some of his encouraging words. I was depressed for a week, but his advice was a wake-up call.

我不懒，我真的很努力。你可以想象我的感受。爸爸把手放在我的肩上说:你只能尽力做到最好，但无论你决定做什么，都要确保你热爱它。他是个好人，是个好人。我知道他想用一些鼓励的话来掩饰他的失望。我抑郁了一个星期，但他的建议给我敲响了警钟。

Fortunately I love working with my hands, and I was good at two things: woodwork and art, and I really loved to draw and paint. I was quite talented. Dad strongly encouraged me to go to art school, which in those days wasn’t the obvious place that a father would suggest.

幸运的是，我喜欢自己的双手工作，我擅长两件事:木工和艺术，我真的很喜欢画画。我很有天赋。爸爸强烈地鼓励我去艺术学校，在那个时候，那显然不是一个父亲会建议我去的地方。

So I got into Hartlepool College of Art. The college was a revelation (出乎意料), the passionate teachers there, who were extremely interested in the students, not just tolerating them but actually engaging with them. It was a world apart from my schooling until then. It’s extraordinary what an enthusiastic teacher can do, drawing the student out, lighting independence, and encouraging a design of your own future, rather than waiting for something to happen. I’m honored to have become one of these passionate teachers years later.

所以我被哈特尔普尔艺术学院录取了。这所大学是一个启示，那里充满激情的老师，他们对学生非常感兴趣，不仅容忍他们，而且真正地与他们接触。在那之前，它与我的学校格格不入。一个充满热情的老师所能做的是非常了不起的，他能把学生拉出来，激发他们的独立性，鼓励他们设计自己的未来，而不是坐等事情发生。多年后，我很荣幸能成为这些充满激情的老师之一。

My teachers inspired me, and thanks to my dad, here I am tonight. I think I should mention all the talents I have worked with over time, and to my kids and my wife Giannina, thank you.

我的老师们激励了我，感谢我的父亲，今晚我能站在这里。我想我应该提一下我在过去一段时间里合作过的所有人才，以及我的孩子和妻子Giannina，谢谢你们。

Thank you for this great award. I shall find a very special place for it.

谢谢你给我这个大奖。我会找一个特别的地方放它。

【答案】21. B 22. C 23. D

【解析】【分析】本文是一篇获奖感言。作者陈述了父亲以及哈特尔普尔艺术学院的老师对自己的帮助让自己有了今天的成就，对他们以及妻子和孩子们表示感谢。

21. How did the author feel after taking GCE?

A. Happy.B. Upset.C. Tired.D. Relieved.

【21题详解】推理判断题。根据第二段的“Years ago, when I was 16, I took an important exam — GCE(General Certificate of Education), which turned out to be a failure. My dad was reading my report card and saw that my position in class was 29th, but the number in class was 29. It meant that I had achieved the distinction of being bottom of my class.(几年前，当我16岁的时候，我参加了一个重要的考试——GCE(普通教育证书)，结果失败了。我爸爸看了我的成绩单，看到我在班上的位置是29，但是班上的人数是29。这意味着我获得了全班最后一名的殊荣)”可推断，作者参加了GCE考试，成绩是班里的最后一名，因此推断，作者是烦恼的。故选B。

22. What did Hartlepool College of Art impress the author most?

A. The teachers were strict with students.

B. The students set good examples for each other.

C. The teachers inspired students’ passion for learning.

I’m honored to have become one of these passionate teachers years later.(一个热情的老师所做的是非凡的，他们鼓励学生，点燃独立，鼓励设计你自己的未来，而不是等待事情发生。我很荣幸能在几年后成为这些热情的教师之一)”可推断，哈特尔普尔艺术学院给作者留下的最深的印象是老师们激发学生对学习的热情。故选C。

23. The author gave this speech to ________.

A. share his career choice

B. explain his teaching methods

C. describe his life experience

D. show his appreciation

【23题详解】推理判断题。根据倒数第二段的“thanks to my dad”“to my kids and my wife Giannina, thank you.”以及倒数第一段“Thank you for this great award. I shall find a very special place for it.(谢谢你颁发的这个伟大的奖项。我会为它找一个非常特别的地方)”可推断，作者发表这个演讲是为了表示感谢。故选D。

B

William had worked hard to pass the exams to enter high school. When the term began, however, his father told him that there was no money to pay for his school fees because of the summer drought. Still, William wanted to learn.

威廉为了通过考试进入高中而努力学习。然而，当学期开始时，他的父亲告诉他，由于夏季的干旱，没有钱支付他的学费。尽管如此，威廉还是想学习。

He made the village library his school. One day, he found a book called Using Energy. On the book’s cover was a picture of windmills, tall steel towers with blades (叶片) spinning like giant fans. He learned that wind—something of which his hometown had plenty—could produce electricity.

He couldn’t help picturing his own windmill in mind, but collecting the parts and tools he needed would take months. In a junkyard, he dug through piles of used metal, old cars, and worn-out tractors, searching for anything that might help him construct his machine. He made four-foot-long blades from plastic pipe, which he melted over a fire, flattened out, and hardened with bamboo poles.

Earning some money, he paid a blacksmith to attach the piston (活塞) to the pedal sprocket (踏板链轮) of an old bicycle frame. This would be the axle (轮轴) of the windmill. When the wind blew, the spinning blades would turn the bicycle wheel and spin a small dynamo (发电机), donated by his friend.

When he had collected all the parts, William began putting them together. He fixed the blades to the tractor fan he found, using washers (垫圈) he’d made from bottle caps. Next he pushed the fan onto the piston joint to the bicycle frame. With the help of his two best friends, William built a 16-foot-tall tower from trunks of trees and lifted the ninety-pound windmill to the top.

The big moments eventually came. He climbed up the tower and connected two wires that held a small bulb. As the wind whipped around him, the blades began to turn, slowly at first, then faster and faster. The light bulb flickered (闪烁), then flashed to life. The crowd cheered from below. “Wachitabwina (well done)!”

William’s machine now powered his house. And the story of the boy who’d built a power-generating windmill to rescue his family from the drought spread across the Internet.

威廉的机器现在为他的房子提供动力。这个男孩建造了一个能发电的风车来拯救他的家人脱离干旱，这个故事在互联网上传开了。

【答案】24. A 25. B 26. B 27. A

【解析】【分析】这是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了，辍学的威廉不能去学校，他把村图书馆作为他的学校，看到了《使用能量》这本书，他运用从书中所学的知识建造了一个发电风车来帮助他的家人摆脱干旱。

24. After reading Using Energy, what did William decide to do?

A. Make use of wind.B. Enter a high school.

C. Build a village library.D. Learn to survive a drought.

【24题详解】细节理解题。结合上文“威廉看到了《使用能量》这本书后，收集零件建造发电风车”和倒数第二段中的“As the wind whipped around him, the blades began to turn, slowly at first, then faster and faster. The light bulb flickered (闪烁), then flashed to life.”（当风吹来时，刀刃开始慢慢地转动，然后越来越快。灯泡闪烁，然后闪着生命。），可知威廉读了《使用能量》之后，决定建造发电风车，利用风来发电，最后成功了。故选A项。

25. According to Para.3, which of the following word can best describe William?

A. Humorous.B. Determined.

C. Cooperative.D. Friendly.

【25题详解】推理判断题。由第三段中的“He couldn’t help picturing his own windmill in mind, but collecting the parts and tools he needed would take months. In a junkyard, he dug through piles of used metal, old cars, and worn-out tractors, searching for anything that might help him construct his machine.”（他忍不住想象自己的风车，但收集他需要的零件和工具需要几个月。在一个垃圾场，他挖了成堆的旧金属、旧车和破旧的拖拉机，寻找任何能帮助他建造机器的东西。）和第四段中的“Earning some money, he paid a blacksmith to attach the piston (活塞) to the pedal sprocket (踏板链轮) of an old bicycle frame.”（他挣了些钱，付钱给一个铁匠把活塞装到旧自行车架上的踏板链轮上。），结合上文可知，因为没钱，威廉辍学，但看了《使用能量》这本书后，他决定建造发电风车，他花了几个月时间在垃圾场收集需要的零件，又赚钱请人帮忙，最后终于成功建造了发电风车，纵使困难重重，威廉并未放弃，说明他是一个意志坚定的（Determined）人。故选B项。

26. What can you learn about William’s machine?

A. It was built by villagers.

B. It worked at the first attempt.

C. It took him years to complete it.

D. It was made from metal materials.

【26题详解】细节理解题。由倒数第二段中的“As the wind whipped around him, the blades began to turn, slowly at first, then faster and faster. The light bulb flickered (闪烁), then flashed to life.”（当风吹来时，刀刃开始慢慢地转动，然后越来越快。灯泡闪烁，然后闪着生命。），可知威廉建造的发电风车第一次就成功发电了。故选B项。

27. What is the best title for the passage?

A. Winds Of HopeB. Ideas Worth Spreading

C. Learning from ExperienceD. Windmills for Villages

【27题详解】主旨大意题。第一段讲“因为没钱，威廉辍学了，但他还想学习”，第二段讲“看了《使用能量》这本书后，他决定建造发电风车”，第三四段讲“威廉收集建造发电风车的零件和工具”，第五六段讲“威廉建造的发电风车成功发电了”，最后一段讲“威廉建造的发电风车帮助他的家人摆脱了干旱”，可知文章主要讲威廉运用从书中所学的知识建造了一个发电风车，利用风来发电，帮助他的家人摆脱干旱的故事，可以说是风带来了希望，拯救了他们，A项“希望之风”符合文意。故选A项。

C

According to statistics published by the BPI (Buying Power Index) a couple of months ago, digital streaming (流媒体) now accounts for 80 percent of the music consumption in the UK. Despite the incredible growth of online streaming platforms like iTunes, Apple Music and Tidal over the past 15 years, a more traditional medium has also seen a return of interest and sales in the music industry. In 2020, almost one in five of all albums purchased in the UK is vinyl (黑胶唱片), and it has once again become the most popular physical musical medium.

根据BPI(购买力指数)几个月前公布的数据，数字流媒体音乐目前占英国音乐消费的80%。尽管iTunes、Apple Music和Tidal等在线流媒体平台在过去15年里取得了令人难以置信的增长，但在音乐行业，一种更为传统的媒体也看到了兴趣和销售的回报。2020年，在英国购买的所有专辑中，几乎有五分之一是黑胶唱片，黑胶唱片再次成为最受欢迎的物理音乐媒介。

With digital streaming so easy and convenient, why are so many people drawn to traditional records? Some experts claim that vinyl is a physical medium for experiencing music, something tangible (有形的) to hold and own. For most people, having something tangible and interacting with it gives depth to the experience of music. Listening to an album and touching it the way the artist intended can make them feel more connected to the music and the artist. Records are physical products that can be not only displayed but also gifted, shared, traded and passed down through generations.

Sound quality is another hot topic. A lot of music lovers feel that the analogue sound (模拟声音) vinyl offers is superior to modern digital audio, particularly with regards to the compressed formats streaming platforms use. There’s a common belief that old-school analogue audio has a warmer, fuller sound than digitised music. For vinyl followers, the very defect traditional recorders often have, such as the familiar crackle (劈啪作响) when the record starts, bring the music to life in a different way.

There’s a ritualistic aspect to vinyl that a lot of people are drawn to, too. The act of putting a record on—carefully removing the record from the sleeve, placing it on the record player and gently dropping the needle on the right groove (凹槽)—is a more assiduous (一丝不苟的), mindful way of engaging with music. When you’re listening to vinyl, you can’t tap a button and go about your day while the streaming service provides hours of music. You need to stay close to the record player to move the needle and flip the record over.

It’s clear that the vinyl interest is well underway, and vinyl records are truly making a comeback. In an increasingly digital society, there’s something to be said for analogue experiences. Perhaps one of the great things about being alive in the 21st century is our ability to have the best of both worlds—the timeless appeal of physical records alongside the easy access to vast music libraries that streaming offers.

很明显，黑胶唱片的兴趣正在进行中，黑胶唱片确实正在卷土重来。在日益数字化的社会中，模拟体验是有意义的。也许生活在21世纪最伟大的事情之一就是我们能够同时拥有两个世界最好的东西——物理唱片永恒的吸引力和流媒体提供的海量音乐库的便捷访问。

【答案】28. C 29. A 30. C 31. D

【解析】【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了在英国，尽管在线流媒体现在占音乐消费量的80%，但黑胶唱片再次成为最受欢迎的物理音乐媒介。

28. What are the statistics published by the BPI used to show?

A. An increase in music consumption.

B. The recovery of music industry.

C. A comeback of a physical medium.

D. The acceptance of online streaming.

【28题详解】细节理解题。由第一段中的“Despite the incredible growth of online streaming platforms like iTunes, Apple Music and Tidal over the past 15 years, a more traditional medium has also seen a return of interest and sales in the music industry. In 2020, almost one in five of all albums purchased in the UK is vinyl (黑胶唱片), and it has once again become the most popular physical musical medium.”（尽管iTunes、Apple Music和Tidal等在线流媒体平台在过去15年里取得了惊人的增长，但一种更为传统的媒体在音乐行业中的兴趣和销量也有所回升。2020年，在英国购买的所有专辑中，几乎五分之一是黑胶唱片, 它再次成为最受欢迎的物质音乐媒介。），可知BPI过去公布的统计数字表明：黑胶唱片这种传统的物质音乐媒介在音乐行业中的兴趣和销量也有所回升，即音乐物理媒介回归了。故选C项。

29. According to some experts, why does vinyl interest many people?

A. It attracts people by its realistic feel.

B. It offers simple access to different music.

C. It shares a new way to enjoy music.

D. It provides people with perfect sound effect.

【29题详解】细节理解题。由第二段中的“Some experts claim that vinyl is a physical medium for experiencing music, something tangible (有形的) to hold and own. For most people, having something tangible and interacting with it gives depth to the experience of music.”（一些专家声称，黑胶唱片是一种体验音乐的物质媒介，一种可持有和拥有的有形的东西。对大多数人来说，拥有一些有形的东西并与之互动，可以给音乐带来深度体验。），可知专家认为黑胶唱片是一种可持有和拥有的有形的东西，拥有黑胶唱片，黑胶唱片带来的真实感能给人们在音乐上带来深度体验。故选A项。

30. The underlined word “ritualistic” in Para.4 means something ______.

A. Overlooked by society.

B. Updated very frequently.

C. Performed as part of a ceremony.

D. Kept for a long time without changing.

【30题详解】词义猜测题。由第四段中的“There’s a ritualistic aspect to vinyl that a lot of people are drawn to, too. The act of putting a record on—carefully removing the record from the sleeve, placing it on the record player and gently dropping the needle on the right groove (凹槽)—is a more assiduous (一丝不苟的), mindful way of engaging with music.”（黑胶唱片还有一个ritualistic方面，很多人也被吸引。放唱片的动作——把唱片小心地从唱片套上取下来，放在唱机上，然后轻轻地把唱针放在右边的凹槽上——是很一丝不苟的, 专注于音乐的方式。），可知后文讲了放唱片的流程动作（取唱片套——把唱片放在唱机上——拨动唱针），这是放唱片的一系列仪式化动作，ritualistic在此处意为“作为仪式的一部分进行的”。故选C项。

31. How does the writer feel about the future development of music medium?

A. Traditional records will get underway.

B. The analogue experiences may matter more.

C. Vinyl sales will boom with technological advance.

D. There should be a good mix of old and new.

【31题详解】推理判断题。由最后一段中的“Perhaps one of the great things about being alive in the 21st century is our ability to have the best of both worlds—the timeless appeal of physical records alongside the easy access to vast music libraries that streaming offers.”（也许在21世纪活着的一件伟大的事情就是我们能够拥有两个世界中最好的东西——物质记录的永恒吸引力，以及流媒体提供的巨大音乐库的便捷访问。），可知作者希望同时拥有音乐物质记录方式（黑胶唱片）和流媒体音乐，说明作者认为新（流媒体音乐）老（黑胶唱片）应该很好地结合起来。故选D项。

D

A medical capsule robot is a small, often pill-sized device that can do planned movement inside the body after being swallowed or surgically inserted. Most models use wireless electronics or magnets or a combination of the two to control the movement of the capsule. Such devices have been equipped with cameras to allow observation and diagnosis, with sensors that “feel,” and even with mechanical needles that administer drugs.

医疗胶囊机器人是一种小型的，通常是药丸大小的设备，可以在被吞下或通过手术植入体内后进行有计划的运动。大多数模型使用无线电子设备或磁铁或两者的结合来控制胶囊的运动。这些设备已经配备了摄像头，可以进行观察和诊断，有感知传感器，甚至还有可以给药的机械针头。

But in practice, Biomechatronics engineer Pietro Valdastri has found that developing capsule models from scratch (从头开始) is costly, time-consuming and requires advanced skills. “The problem was we had to do them from scratch every time,” said Valdastri in an interview. “And other research groups were redeveloping those same modules from scratch, which didn’t make sense.”

Since most of the capsules have the same parts of components: a microprocessor, communication submodules, an energy source, sensors, and actuators (致动器), Valdastri and his team made the modular platform in which the pieces work in concert and can be interchanged with ease. They also developed a flexible board on which the component parts are snapped in like Legos. The board can be folded to fit the body of the capsule, down to about 14 mm. Additionally, they compiled (编译) a library of components that designers could choose from, enabling hundreds of different combinations. They arranged it all in a free online system. Designers can take the available designs or adapt them to their specific needs.

“Instead of redeveloping all the modules from scratch, people with limited technological experience can use our modules to build their own capsule robots in clinical use and focus on their innovation,” Valdastri said.

Now, the team has designed a capsule equipped with a surgical clip to stop internal bleeding. Researchers at Scotland’s Royal Infirmary of Edinburg have also expressed interest in using the system to make a crawling capsule that takes images of the colon(结肠). One research group, led by professors at the Institute of Digestive Disease of the Chinese University of HongKong, is making a swimming capsule equipped with a camera that pushes itself through the stomach.

One limitation of Valdastri’s system is that it’s only for designing models. Researchers can confirm their hypotheses (假设) and do first design using the platform, but will need to move to a custom approach to develop their capsules further and make them practical for clinical use.

【答案】32. C 33. D 34. A

【解析】【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了一种医用胶囊机器人，它的构成和优缺点等。

32. According to the passage, Valdastri and his team created the platform to ________.

A. adopt the latest technologies

B. make their robots dream come true

C. help build specialized capsule robots

D. do preciser observation and diagnosis

【32题详解】推理判断题。由第四段““Instead of redeveloping all the modules from scratch, people with limited technological experience can use our modules to build their own capsule robots in clinical use and focus on their innovation,” Valdastri said.”（Valdastri说：“替代从头开始重新开发所有的模块，技术经验有限的人可以利用我们的模块制造自己的胶囊机器人，用于临床，并专注于创新。”），可知Valdastri和他的团队创造这个平台是为了帮助技术经验有限的人制造自己的（专用的）胶囊机器人。故选C项。

33. What does the underlined phrase “work in concert” mean in Para.3?

A. Perform live.B. Run independently.

C. Act in a cooperative way.D. Carry on step by step.

33题详解】短语猜测题。由第三段中的“Since most of the capsules have the same parts of components: a microprocessor, communication submodules, an energy source, sensors, and actuators (致动器), Valdastri and his team made the modular platform in which the pieces work in concert and can be interchanged with ease.”（因为大多数胶囊都有相同的部件：微处理器、通信子模块、能源、传感器和致动器, Valdastri和他的团队制作了一个模块化的平台，在这个平台上，部件work in concert，可以轻松地互换。）和“Additionally, they compiled (编译) a library of components that designers could choose from, enabling hundreds of different combinations. They arranged it all in a free online system. Designers can take the available designs or adapt them to their specific needs.”（此外，他们还编译了设计师可以选择的组件库，支持数百种不同的组合。他们把这一切安排在一个免费的在线系统里。），可知Valdastri和他的团队制作了一个模块化（意味着系统性）的平台，在这个模块化平台上，设计师可以从免费在线系统上的组件库中选择部件，按照模块，把部件系统性的、一步一步地按照设计或需求进行建模，work in concert在此处意为“一步一步地进行”。故选D项。

34. What can be learnt from the passage?

A. Valdastri’s system can’t provide a complete capsule creation.

B. The modular platform is more useful than a custom approach.

C. The capsules can move in human’s body automatically.

D. It costs more to module the capsules on the board.

【34题详解】推理判断题。由最后一段中的“One limitation of Valdastri’s system is that it’s only for designing models.”（Valdastri的系统的一个局限性是它只用于设计模型。），可知Valdastri的系统只用于设计模型，可得出Valdastri的系统不能提供一个完整的胶囊创建。故选A项。

第二节 （共5小题；每小题2分，共10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的七个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。

The Case for Classics

Many high schoolers complain when they look at a course syllabus (大纲) for Chinese and see literary assignments that include The Story Of The Stone and other pieces of classic literature.

许多高中生在查看中文课程大纲时，看到文学作业包括《石头记》和其他经典文学作品时，都会抱怨。

___35___ But there are some good reasons why reading the classics is an important part of a 21st century education.

___36___ As students explore texts that were written hundreds of years before, they peer through a window into the world as it was in those days. Being able to hear those voices from the past is a privilege young people should be grateful to have.

Furthermore, as students examine classic works, they begin to see the fabric of history from a different perspective. Absorbed with their own daily activities, most teens rarely think about the fact that human civilization has been around for a long time. ___37___ The experiences and perspectives of those people can provide important insights into the challenges that teenagers face today. The wording and style may have changed, but the underlying themes that stir the heart, including love, loss, courage, revolution, and humor, are as true today as they were for the authors of these early works.

One of the most important reasons to study classic literature, however, is to expand one’s mind. ___38___ To illustrate this, a group of scientists gathered volunteers who agreed to have their brains scanned while reading phrases from classic literature in both their original form and in modern translations. The result of the study showed a significant increase in the brain activity of people reading the original texts.

___39___ It connects students to the history and values of the broader human community. It challenges their minds with the ideas and words of people who came before them. Therefore, if today’s teens are going to grow as readers, writers, and critical thinkers, it is essential that classic literature remains a part of their education.

【答案】35. D；36. E；37. F；38. G；39. B；

【解析】【分析】这是一篇议论文。文章从古典文学对学生的好处论述了古典文学在高中课程大纲中的重要性。

A. Clearly, that’s why it is so important.

B. Classic literature is important in a high school education.

C. These were things that were on people’s minds at that time.

D. Students often wonder why they have to study “ancient” writing.

E. Reading writings from long ago can be like stepping into a time machine.

F. Nor do they realize their lives are connected to the lives of the ancient people.

G. Learning to appreciate an unfamiliar style of writing can stretch the brain and help it grow stronger.

【35题详解】由上一句“Many high schoolers complain when they look at a course syllabus (大纲) for Chinese and see literary assignments that include The Story Of The Stone and other pieces of classic literature.”（许多高中生看到语文课程大纲，看到文学作业包括《石头记》和其他经典文学作品时，都会抱怨。）和下一句“But there are some good reasons why reading the classics is an important part of a 21st century education.”（但是，阅读经典著作是21世纪教育的一个重要组成部分，有一些很好的理由。）可知，上文讲学生在阅读古典文学作品时会抱怨，下文进行转折讲阅读古典著作也有一些很好的理由，可得出该空填写内容应与学生不理解阅读古典文学的目的和理由相关，承接上下文，D选项“学生们常常想知道为什么他们要学习“古代”文字作品。”切题。故选D项。

【36题详解】由下一句“As students explore texts that were written hundreds of years before, they peer through a window into the world as it was in those days.”（当学生们探索几百年前写的课文时，他们透过窗户窥视着当时的世界。）可知，下文讲阅读几百年前的文章，学生就像透过窗户窥视着几百年前的世界，下文中的“a window into the world as it was in those days”对应E选项中的“a time machine”，都指能够了解过去发生的事，承接下文，E选项“阅读很久以前的作品就像踏进时间机器。”切题。故选E项。

【37题详解】由上一句“Absorbed with their own daily activities, most teens rarely think about the fact that human civilization has been around for a long time.”（大多数青少年沉迷于自己的日常活动，很少想到人类文明已经存在了很长一段时间）可知，上文批判了青少年对古典文学作品的漠视，那么该空极有可能再次批判青少年漠视古典文学这一问题，承接上文，F选项“他们也没有意识到自己的生活与古人的生活息息相关。”切题。故选F项。

Offline networking is important because it can improve a teenager’s well-being and help prepare him for the future. That’s why every teen should spend time practicing real-world interactions.

【解析】【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章讲述了线下人与人之间面对面的交流对于青少年的重要性。

40. What is the disadvantage of online networking?

【答案】40. Online networking makes short, superficial connections, which is not helpful in real life. 【40题详解】考查细节理解。根据第一段中“Online networking, which is very popular with teens today, makes short, superficial connections. ”可知，如今，网络社交在青少年中非常流行，它只建立了短暂而肤浅的联系。故答案为Online networking makes short, superficial connections, which is not helpful in real life.

41. What was the researchers’ suggestion to teens?

【答案】41. They suggested that teens should spend more time with others in real life. 【41题详解】考查细节理解。根据第二段中“So, they suggested that teens should spend more time with others in real life. ”可知，因此，他们建议青少年应该花更多的时间在现实生活中与他人相处。故答案为They suggested that teens should spend more time with others in real life.

42. Read the following statement, underline the false part of it and explain the reason.

Hearing and understanding what a person is saying is necessarily involved in communication, so people get less from nonverbal expressions.

【答案】42. Hearing and understanding what a person is saying is necessarily involved in communication, so people get less from nonverbal expressions. According to the text"And much of our communication is nonverbal anyway. Facial expressions, gestures, and vocal tones are just a few examples. Teens need to have face-to-face interactions so they can learn to read these nonverbal cues(暗示), which are sometimes even more important than the words a person is saying." , we know that the nonverbal expressions are more imprtant than the words. 【42题详解】考查推理判断。根据第四段中“And much of our communication is nonverbal anyway. Facial expressions, gestures, and vocal tones are just a few examples. Teens need to have face-to-face interactions so they can learn to read these nonverbal cues(暗示), which are sometimes even more important than the words a person is saying.”可知，我们的很多交流都是非语言的，比如面部表情、手势和语调。青少年需要面对面的交流,这样他们就可以学习阅读这些非语言的暗示(暗示),有时甚至比这个人说的话更重要。故答案为Hearing and understanding what a person is saying is necessarily involved in communication, so people get less from nonverbal expressions.According to the text"And much of our communication is nonverbal anyway. Facial expressions, gestures, and vocal tones are just a few examples. Teens need to have face-to-face interactions so they can learn to read these nonverbal cues(暗示), which are sometimes even more important than the words a person is saying." , we know that the nonverbal expressions are more important than the words.

43. Please present what you can do to make effective face-to-face communication in your daily life. (about 40 words)

【答案】43. First of all, we should know ourselves well, such as the talent and hobbies. Then, we should take part in some relevant activities which are suitable for us. And from these experience, we can make friends and improve our ability to face-to-face communication.

【43题详解】考查生活常识。本篇文章主要内容讲述了现实生活中面对面的沟通，可以锻炼青少年的各种能力，对将来的就业和生活都有好处。因此从这个角度出发，青少年平时应该增加线下交流的方式，参考方法如下：首先要了解自己擅长和喜欢什么领域，然后多参加相关的活动，多交该领域的朋友，从而锻炼自己的沟通能力。故答案为First of all, we should know ourselves well, such as the talent and hobbies. Then, we should take part in some relevant activities which are suitable for us. And from these experience, we can make friends and improve our ability to face-to-face communication.
