Planning to go to a gym? If you are one of those who have spent many days planning to join a gym or to attend it regularly, then why not choose some home exercises? Here are some home exercises without equipment.
Jumping jacks
This one is the best home workout without weights, which is a great exercise that will work your hands and legs. Perform this exercise by standing with your feet placed together and arms at your sides. Now tuck in your abs (收腹) and jump by bending your knees. At the same time, move your feet apart as much as you can and raise your hands to bring into line with your shoulders. While you come back you must be in a starting position, feet together, hands at sides and knees bent. You must land on your heels and again jump.
Jogging
Jogging is one of the best home exercises without weights. You don’t need to have a lawn or jogging track at home to perform this exercise. There are many benefits of jogging. It will work your entire legs. Moreover, it is a classic cardiovascular (心血管的) workout. Make sure you wear jogging footwear even if you are jogging at home to avoid any stress on your feet. Also, you can gradually increase the jogging time and speed.
Rotating (旋轉(zhuǎn)) exercise
Start by rotating your wrists, clockwise (順時針方向地) and anticlockwise. Now, alternately rotate your feet in the same fashion. Now place both your hands on the shoulders and start rotating your shoulders clockwise and anticlockwise. Place an exercise mat and lie flat on your back. Now lift your left leg and rotate it clockwise; do not bend your knees. Now rest the left leg, lift your right leg and rotate it.
Anticlockwise
It is necessary to set a perfect mood for exercise which will help you stick to the exercise routine and excitement. Make sure you wear proper exercise clothes to perform the workout with ease.

Reading poems is not exactly an everyday activity for most people. In fact, many people never read a poem once they get out of high school.
It is worth reminding ourselves that this has not always been the case in America. In the nineteenth century, a usual American activity was to sit around the fireside in the evening and read poems aloud. It is true that there was no television at that time, nor movie theatres, nor World Wide Web, to provide diversion. However, poems were a source of pleasure, of self-education, of connection to other people or to the world beyond one’s own community. Reading them was a social act as well as an individual one, and perhaps even more social than individual. Writing poems to share with friends and relations was, like reading poems by the fireside, another way in which poetry has a place in everyday life.
How did things change? Why are most Americans no longer comfortable with poetry, and why do most people today think that a poem has nothing to tell them and that they can do well without poems?
There are, I believe, three factors: poets, teachers, and we ourselves. Of these, the least important is the third: the world surrounding the poem has betrayed us more than we have betrayed the poem. Early in the twentieth century, poetry in English headed into directions unfavourable to the reading of poetry. Readers decided that poems were not for the fireside or the easy chair at night, and that they belonged where other difficult-to-read things belonged.
Poets failed the reader, so did teachers. They want their students to know something about the skills of a poem; they want their students to see that poems mean something. Yet what usually occurs when teachers push these concerns on their high school students is that young people decide poems are unpleasant crossword puzzles.
24. Why is reading poems thought to be a social act in the nineteenth century?
A. Because it built a link among people. B. Because it helped unite a community.
C. Because it was a source of self-education. D. Because it was a source of pleasure.
25. What does the underlined word “diversion” in Paragraph 2 mean?　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　
A. Stories. B. Changes. C. Amusements. D. Concentrations.
26. What is the main cause of the great gap between readers and poetry?
A. Students are poorly educated in high school. B. Poems have become difficult to understand.
C. Students are becoming less interested in poetry. D. TV and the Internet are more attractive than poetry.
27. What does the author try to tell us by writing the text?
A. The history and changes of poetry. B. The correct way for teachers to teach poetry.
C. The failure of poetry in people’s life nowadays. D. The reason why people aren’t keen on poetry today.
C
The riches of the natural world aren't spread evenly across the globe. Places like the tropical Andes（赤道安第斯山脈） in South America are packed with unique species no place else to be found on Earth. Previously, the main explanation for the biological riches concentrated in places like the Amazon Basin was that they were such places where new species evolved at a faster rate than other parts of the world. But now, new research on bird evolution may turn that assumption on its head. Instead, it supports the idea that areas with fewer species actually tend to produce new species faster.
The researchers say the biodiversity cold spots are generally found in harsher （更嚴酷的） environments featuring freezing, dry and unstable conditions, Though the researchers have found these locations with few bird species tend to produce new ones at high rates, they fail to accumulate many species because the unstable conditions frequently make the new life forms die out.
The more well-known hotspots, by contrast, have accumulated their large numbers of species by being warm, hospitable and relatively stable. Indeed, the researchers have found that the countless bird species that call the Amazon home tend to be older in evolutionary terms. That actually accounts for higher species richness there.
“Our results suggest that these hotspots for biodiversity are not hotspots for the evolution of new species,” says Elizabeth Derry berry, an evolutionary biologist at the University of Tennessee. “New species do form in places like the Amazon, just not as frequently as in more extreme environments.”
The researchers managed to collect 1,940 samples（樣本） representing 1,287 of the 1,306 bird species from South America. Their analysis revealed that the best predictor of whether an area would produce new species at a high rate was how many species lived there, rather than climate or geographic features like mountains. Species rich areas tended to produce new species more slowly.
On a practical level, the study's findings add new urgency for stopping destroying ecosystems that may look dry and bare, because they may actually be nature's hothouses for the evolution of new species.
28. What is the previous explanation for biodiversity in the Amazon Basin?
A. Its species' strong survival abilities. B. The immigration of foreign species.
C. The rapid evolution of new species. D. Its vast living space for new species.
29. Why do the bird species in the Amazon tend to be older?
A. There's less competition and more chances. B. It constantly attracts new species to come.
C. It had extreme environments a long time ago. D. The environment there is stable and favorable.
30. The study's findings suggest that we should .
A. conserve harsh ecosystems B. help species in hot areas live longer
C. develop species-rich environments D. limit species in biodiversity cold spots
31. What is the main idea of the text?
A. Bird species prefer to live in harsher ecosystems.
B. Species in poor areas may produce new species faster
C. Tropical areas are home to large numbers of species.
D. Hot areas are more attractive to species than cold areas.
D
In the Hollywood industry, most of the studios are using AI to make movies for various reasons such as getting the actors out of danger, replacing the actors indifferent scenes, forming appealing atmosphere to enhance（增強） the views, etc.
Directors and producers are using VFX (Visual effects), animations and AI to make a model that looks like the actor and replaces the actor's place. In particular, AI is used in scenes where actor shave to produce certain stunts（特技） to develop setups in the studio artificially. VFX is used to later change the internal studio backgrounds to a different place in the movie.
There are many movies with two characters of the same actor. When AI was not a part of the film, editors used different methods to show the two aspects of the same actor in one scene, but now AI is being used to form the second character of the same actor and is being performed to the viewers.
By a perfect combination of animation, VFX and AI, realistic models are being created. And the most fun part is the fictitious character can hold the face of the actor but the age, hairstyles, and clothing can be changed to create more enhanced looks according to the movie scene and story. With the help of AI, the directors recreating appealing scenes to enhance the thrill and excitement. In Jurassic Park, no dinosaurs were running but with the help of AI and visual effects, we could enjoy the scenes and the atmospheres.
The directors and the producers direct to form a green screen including the obstacles and those green screens get replaced with the views that are made from AI and VFX, and the actors make the scenes alive and deliver the most suitable action-packed movie scenes. This method also enhances the viewers' experience, which makes the movie a blockbuster（大片）.
32. What does the author intend to tell us in paragraph 1?
A. How AI helps actors. B. What AI brings to movies.
C. Why AI is applied to movies. D. Where AI is made full use of.
33. What can we infer from paragraph 3?
A. AI can be used as an editor. B. Editors consider AI irreplaceable.
C. Editors used many methods to replace AI. D. AI makes what used to be complex scenes easier.
34. What's the author's attitude to using VFX, animations and AI in movies?
A. Supportive. B. Sceptical. C. Unconcerned. D. Enthusiastic.
35. Which of the following could be the best title for the text?
A. What AI Brings Out Hollywood Movies B. Why AI Is Applied to Hollywood Movies
C. Which Hollywood Movies Make Much Use of AI D. How AI Is Being Applied to Hollywood Movies

閱讀下面短文，從短文后的選項中選出可以填入空白處的最佳選項。選項中有兩項為多余選項。
Winter is an amazing time of year to look for wildlife. Outdoors, the winter is like a silent, white Wonderland. 36 Many birds migrate （遷徙） for the winter and some animals go into hibernation （冬眠）, so you may have to look a little harder to spot the wild animals you're looking for.
During the winter, many animals change their patterns in order to avoid the cold and preserve energy. When there is a lack of food, some animals go into hibernation; other dig into the ground and remain out of sight. 37 Some animals migrate to warmer climates during the winter.
Many animals that do not hibernate during the winter stay in their hidden caves more and move much less. It is important for these animals to preserve their energy by limiting their exposure to the cold and restricting their movements. Many animals also move to a different habitat where they are less exposed, so they find more sheltered habitats. 38
Snow is a great preserver of animal tracks. You may see the tracks of many different animals during your wildlife viewing expedition. 39 Even if the tracks are not fresh, it is interesting to see what animals do during the coldest season.
40 If you are patient, you may be lucky enough to see some wildlife. If you are impatient, you are likely to come away from your expedition without seeing any animals. Even if you don't have the chance to see any wildlife, winter wildlife viewing gives you the opportunity to enjoy the beauty of nature during the winter. If you do see some wildlife in the winter, it will be an experience to treasure forever.
A. However, the snow and the quiet make spotting wildlife more difficult.
B. Many animals change their coats in order to disguise themselves in the snow.
C. The most important skill to practice during winter wildlife viewing is patience.
D. When you do find animal tracks, you will be able to follow the movements of animals.
E. If you are quiet, you have a greater chance of finding an animal going about its business.
F. Unfortunately, you may be seeing tracks made by animals days earlier (depending on the weather ).
G. You will likely see the tracks of animals more often than the animals themselves during the winter.

It was just another busy day until I met the boy on the bus. He was not a passenger like me. He was, what we call a street child, an 8-10-year-old kid with a worn T-shirt. These poorly dressed kids were seen almost everywhere in Dhaka city. But what was special about that boy was his face. There was “something” in him that caught my attention. That was an angelic(天使般的)baby face with little care.
He got straight into the bus as it stopped at a traffic light. The bus helper shouted at him in the first place. But instead of talking back, the boy kept silent and started handing out a piece of paper to all the passengers. What was written in the paper was, in short, that his father died a couple of years ago. His mother worked at houses. He badly needed money to help his family, so he wished someone warm-hearted to buy chocolates from him.
This was nothing new to people who took a bus every day and I was no different. I had my earphones on, listening to some relaxing music to kill time. When he came to me to get the paper back, I casually gave him some money. Thankfully it brought some smiles on his face. He was about to give me ten chocolates in return for the money I gave to him when I stopped him.
“I don’t like chocolates, brother. So there is no need of chocolates. You can have the money,” I said.
All of a sudden, the smile on his face disappeared.
“I’m not a beggar. Please take the chocolate, or take your money back.”
His straight answer greatly surprised me. I even felt he was slightly angry. I had given money to many kids before, without taking their chocolates. But this time something seemed different. I realized his angelic baby face was not the only thing special about him.
注意：
1. 續(xù)寫詞數(shù)應(yīng)為150左右;
2. 請按如下格式在答題卡的相應(yīng)位置作答。

參考范文：
Dear Sir/Madam,
I’m Li Hua, an exchange student from China during this summer vacation. I’m delighted to learn that volunteer students are wanted for a Chinese painting exhibition to be held in the local art gallery. Now I’m writing to apply for the position.
The reasons for my application are as follows. First of all, having been exposed to foreign teachers since a young age, I can communicate freely with others in English. What’s more, years of being monitor makes me a brilliant organizer, which will help a lot to keep the exhibition in order. The most important factor is that my related knowledge will undoubtedly help the audience learn more about the unique Chinese art form.
All in all, my sense of responsibility will make me a qualified volunteer. I’d appreciate it if you could take my application into consideration.
Yours,
Li Hua

參考范文：
Paragraph 1:
???? The boy put ten chocolates on my seat and got off the bus. Seeing his small figure disappear in the busy street, I felt at a loss. “I know the boy.” A voice flew through the frozen air and drew me back to life. Then a man told all of us that the boy was a top student in a primary school nearby, whose mother fell ill due to the heavy work. In order to raise some money for his mother, the boy had been selling chocolates for several weeks.
Paragraph 2:
Having got the boy’s name, I decided to help him. I got off the bus at the next stop and took a taxi to his school. Upon arrival, I managed to find the headmaster and handed him $1000, asking him to secretly give the money to the boy who I met selling chocolates on the bus. The headmaster promised to make everything perfect and thanked me on behalf of the boy and his mother. Now, I knew I could go home without shame and regret.
答案詳解
第一節(jié)
A篇
【答案】21. B 22. C 23. A
【解析】本文是一篇應(yīng)用文。文章介紹了一些在家鍛煉的方法。
【21題詳解】
細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)Jogging部分的“Make sure you wear jogging footwear even if you are jogging at home to avoid any stress on your feet. ”可知，即使是在家里慢跑，也一定要穿上慢跑鞋，以避免腳受到任何壓力。由此可知，在家慢跑時，你最好選擇一雙合適的鞋子。故選B。
【22題詳解】
細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)Rotating (旋轉(zhuǎn)) exercise部分的“Start by rotating your wrists. . . Now, alternately rotate your feet. . . and start rotating your shoulders. . . Now lift your left leg”可知，轉(zhuǎn)動手腕開始……現(xiàn)在，交替地轉(zhuǎn)動你的雙腳……轉(zhuǎn)動你的肩膀……抬起你的左腿。由此可知，在旋轉(zhuǎn)運動中，你身體各部分運動的正確順序是“手腕——腳——肩——腿”。故選C。
【23題詳解】
細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)最后一段中的“It is necessary to set a perfect mood for exercise which will help you stick to the exercise routine and excitement. Make sure you wear proper exercise clothes to perform the workout with ease. Also, putting on your favorite music will make your exercise session more lively. ”可知，為運動設(shè)定一個完美的心情是很有必要的，這將幫助你堅持鍛煉的常規(guī)和興奮。確保你穿著合適的運動服來輕松地進行鍛煉。此外，播放你最喜歡的音樂會讓你的鍛煉更加生動活潑。由此可知，要持續(xù)地進行家庭鍛煉，你需要一個好心情和氣氛。故選A。

B篇
24. A　細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段中的of connection to other people or to the world beyond one’s own community. Reading them was a social act可知,朗讀詩歌在人們之間建立了一種聯(lián)系。
25. C　詞義理解題。根據(jù)前面的television、 movie theatres和World Wide Web可知,這些都是消遣的娛樂形式,故可推知該詞表示“消遣,娛樂”。
26. B　推理判斷題。根據(jù)第四段最后一句中的that they belonged where other difficult-to-read things belonged和最后一段最后一句中的that young people decide poems are unpleasant crossword puzzles可推知,對于讀者來說詩歌已經(jīng)變得難以理解。
27. D　主旨大意題。根據(jù)第三段的幾個問題“Why are most Americans no longer comfortable with poetry, and why do most people today think that a poem has nothing to tell them and that they can do well without poems?”以及下文就這幾個問題展開闡述并告訴讀者造成這種現(xiàn)象的原因(人們不再喜歡詩歌的原因)可知答案為D。
C篇
本文是一篇說明文。一項新研究表明，物種較少的地方比生物多樣性豐富的地區(qū)更頻繁地孕育出新物種。
28.C細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第一段第三句“Previously, the main explanation for the biological riches concentrated in places like the Amazon Basin was that they were such place where new species evolved at a faster rate than other parts of the world.（此前，對多樣生物集中在亞馬遜盆地這樣的地方的主要解釋是，在這些地方，新物種的進化速度比世界其他地方都快。）”可知，亞馬遜地區(qū)生物多樣性豐富之前的解釋是因為該地區(qū)新物種進化的速度快。故選C項。
29.D細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第三段第一、二句“The more well-known hot spots, by contrast, have accumulated their large numbers of species by being warm, hospitable and relatively stable. Indeed, the researchers have found that the countless bird species that call the Amazon home tend to be older in evolutionary terms.（相比之下，更為知名的熱點地區(qū)則因氣候溫暖、環(huán)境適宜、相對穩(wěn)定而積累了大量的物種。事實上，研究人員發(fā)現(xiàn)，無數(shù)種以亞馬遜為家的鳥類在進化方面往往更為古老。）”可知，亞馬遜地區(qū)的鳥類較古老是因為該地區(qū)宜居，物種不易死亡。故選D項。
30. A推理判斷題。根據(jù)最后一段“On a practical level, the study's findings add new urgency for stopping destroying ecosystems that may look dry and bare, because they may actually be nature's hothouses for the evolution of new species.（在實際層面上，這項研究的發(fā)現(xiàn)為停止破壞那些看起來干燥、光禿禿的生態(tài)系統(tǒng)增添了新的緊迫感，因為它們實際上可能是自然界新物種進化的溫室。）”可知，研究發(fā)現(xiàn)表明，嚴酷的生態(tài)環(huán)境有可能是新物種進化的溫室，由此可推斷，我們應(yīng)該保護嚴酷的生態(tài)環(huán)境。故選A項。
31. B主旨大意題。通讀全文，根據(jù)第一段最后一句“But now, new research on bird evolution may turn that assumption on its head. Instead, it supports the idea that areas with fewer species actually end to produce new species faster（但現(xiàn)在，有關(guān)鳥類進化的新研究可能會推翻這一假設(shè)，轉(zhuǎn)而支持物種較少的地區(qū)實際上會更快地產(chǎn)生新物種的觀點。）”可知，本文旨在說明物種較少的地方比生物多樣性豐富的地區(qū)更頻繁地孕育出新物種。故選B項。
D篇
本文是一篇說明文。文章主要介紹了在好萊塢電影行業(yè)中，大多數(shù)工作室出于各種原因在制作電影時使用人工智能以增強視覺效果，并具體介紹了人工智能在電影制作過程中是如何被應(yīng)用的。
32. C推理判斷題。通讀第一段可知，第一段主要 告訴人們?nèi)斯ぶ悄鼙粦?yīng)用在電影制作中的原因。故選C。
33. D推理判斷題。根據(jù)第三段第二句“When AI was not a part of the film, editors used different methods to show the two aspects of the same actor in one scene, but now AI is being used to form the second character of the same actor and is being performed to the viewers.”可知，人工智能在沒有被應(yīng)用于電影制作前，剪輯師需要用不同的方法在同一場景展示同一個演員的兩個方面，而現(xiàn)在人們可以使用人工智能來完成這個場景。由此可推知，人工智能使以前復(fù)雜的場景變得更簡單。故選D。
34.A觀點態(tài)度題.根據(jù)第四段第一、二句“By a perfect combination of animation, VFX and AI... to create more enhanced looks according to the movie scene and story.”及最后一段最后一句“This method also enhances the viewers' experience, which makes the movie a blockbuster（大片）.”可知，作者對于VFX、動畫和人工智能在電影中的使用持支持態(tài)度。故選A。
35.D標題概括題。通讀全文可知，文章主要介紹了在好萊塢電影行業(yè)中，大多數(shù)工作室出于各種原因使用人工智能來制作電影以增強視覺效果，并具體介紹了人工智能在電影制作過程中是被如何應(yīng)用的。D項“人工智能正如何被應(yīng)用于好萊塢電影中”能概括文章大意，最適合做本文的標題。故選D。

第二節(jié)
本文是一篇說明文。作者介紹了冬日里尋找野生動物的樂趣。
36. A邏輯關(guān)系題?？崭袂爸v：冬日是尋找野生動物的不錯的季節(jié)；空格后講許多鳥類在冬天遷徙，一些動物會冬眠，因而很難找到野生動物。A項“然而，積雪和寧靜使發(fā)現(xiàn)野生動物變得更困難”承上啟下，符合語境。故選A。
37.B邏輯關(guān)系題。空格前講：冬天許多動物會改變它們的習(xí)性來躲避寒冷和保存能量。當缺乏食物時，一些動物會冬眠；其他動物會鉆進洞里躲起來。B項“許多動物改變皮毛是為了在雪地里偽裝它們自己”承接上文，符合語境。故選B。
38.G首尾呼應(yīng)題。空格前講：許多動物減少活動并尋找不會暴露的棲身之所，即動物們減少了外出。G項“在冬天，比起看到動物，你更可能經(jīng)?？吹剿鼈兊嫩欅E”承接上文，符合語境。故選G。
39. D邏輯關(guān)系題?？崭袂爸v：雪是動物蹤跡的最好的保存者，在冬季，你會看到許多動物的蹤跡；空格后講即使這個蹤跡不是新痕跡，在最寒冷的季節(jié)看動物們在干什么也是很有趣的。D項“當你找到動物的蹤跡的時候，你就能跟蹤動物的活動”承上啟下，符合語境。故選D。
40.C主旨大意題?？崭窈笾v：如果你有耐心，你可能很幸運地看到一些野生動物，如果你沒有耐心，你很可能在探險結(jié)束后看不到任何動物。C項“在冬天看野生動物最需要訓(xùn)練的技能就是耐心”與下文銜接緊密，符合語境。故選C。

【導(dǎo)語】這是一篇說明文。寧夏回族自治區(qū)三面被不斷推進的沙漠包圍，是威脅中國北方的沙塵暴的主要來源之一。 但是寧夏40多年的防沙治沙工作積累了重要經(jīng)驗。根據(jù)不同的棲息地種植不同的樹木對保持森林的質(zhì)量和可持續(xù)性至關(guān)重要。
56．考查非謂語動詞。句意：寧夏回族自治區(qū)三面被不斷推進的沙漠包圍，是威脅中國北方的沙塵暴的主要來源之一。分析句子結(jié)構(gòu)可知surround在句中應(yīng)用非謂語動詞形式，與邏輯主語構(gòu)成被動關(guān)系，應(yīng)用過去分詞，作狀語。故填surrounded。
57．考查連詞。句意：該地區(qū)缺乏水資源，并面臨極端天氣事件。前后文為并列關(guān)系，應(yīng)用連詞and。故填and。
58．考查時態(tài)語態(tài)。句意：如果不采取行動，該地區(qū)將面臨被沙子掩埋的威脅，因為沒有任何防御措施可以阻止沙漠的前進和反復(fù)的強沙塵暴。主語與謂語構(gòu)成被動關(guān)系，且主句為一般將來時，從句用一般現(xiàn)在時表將來，應(yīng)用一般現(xiàn)在時的被動語態(tài)，謂語用單數(shù)。故填is taken。
59．考查名詞。句意：如果不采取行動，該地區(qū)將面臨被沙子掩埋的威脅，因為沒有任何防御措施可以阻止沙漠的前進和反復(fù)的強沙塵暴。此處作從句的主語，表示“防御”，應(yīng)用名詞defense，故填defense。
60．考查形容詞。句意：根據(jù)不同的棲息地種植不同的樹木對保持森林的質(zhì)量和可持續(xù)性至關(guān)重要。此處作表語，表示“至關(guān)重要的”，應(yīng)用形容詞critical。故填critical。
61．考查副詞。句意：中衛(wèi)沙坡頭地區(qū)地下水極低，種植野生灌木。修飾后文形容詞low應(yīng)用副詞extremely，作狀語。故填extremely。
62．考查介詞。句意：灌木有助于降低風速，防止沙子向鄰近地區(qū)運輸。結(jié)合句意表示“阻止從……到……”短語為prevent from…to…。故填from。
63．考查非謂語動詞。句意：與此同時，生活在灌木上的生物逐漸形成生物土壤外衣來牢牢地固定沙子。分析句子結(jié)構(gòu)可知，live在句中應(yīng)用非謂語動詞形式，與邏輯主語organisms構(gòu)成主動關(guān)系，應(yīng)用現(xiàn)在分詞，作定語。故填living。
64．考查時態(tài)。句意：截至2020年底，寧夏森林面積達到51萬公頃，森林覆蓋率由2000年的8.4%提高到15.8%。根據(jù)上文By the end of 2020可知，應(yīng)用過去完成時。故填had grown。
65．考查冠詞。句意：“十四五”期間，寧夏計劃新建森林9.6萬公頃，恢復(fù)草地6.6萬多公頃。此處特指“十四五”期間，應(yīng)用定冠詞the。故填the。
