四、閱讀理解
A
When it comes to the UK, London likes to steal all the attention. Yes, yes, I know: it's a great city with lots of culture and sights to see. However, I think we all need a break sometimes from the chaos of the city. Specifically, a trip to one of the UK's national parks. A total of 15 areas in the UK are protected by the government. This allows everyone access to unblemished (潔凈的)moors (曠野), mountains, rivers and a home where wildlife can flourish.
In total, the national parks cover over 23,000 square kilometres, so where do you begin?
Dartmoor
A paradise for a picnic, Dartmoor in the south of England offers miles and miles of beautiful but lonely moorland. Climb over natural rock formations such as Haytor or hike for hours into the sunset with only wild ponies (矮種馬)for company. Be mindful - they might look sweet, but those wanting to pet them may lose a finger .
Snowdonia
If you're after a challenge, head over to Snowdonia and climb the highest mountain in Wales. At 1,085 metres high, the views from Snowdon are spectacular. It will take you 5-6 hours to climb up and back down again. If a little mountain climbing isn't your scene, the mountain railway will have you there and back in half the lime.
Castles
In addition to Snowdon, Wales has over 10() castles spread throughout its three national parks. Some are broken mins, blending with the nature around them, while others have been restored to their original glory. Climb the towers of Caernarfon Castle and explore the exhibitions to learn about medieval life, or visit the ghostly ruins of Ragland Castle just south of the Brecon Beacons.
Ullswater
For those who feel more at home on the water, the Lake District has over 15 stunning (極美的) lakes. Ullswater is particularly beautiful and the perfect place for scenic boat trips, sailing or canoeing with friends. Swimming is also popular if you are able to brave the cold. Surrounding the lake are charming villages and countryside which can be explored by foot or on horseback.
the White Cliffs of Dover
In the South Downs you'll find one of Britain's most striking views: the White Cliffs of Dover. This is the first view of England you'11 see if arriving by ferry, as long as it's not foggy, of course. Stretching for miles between the blue sea and even bluer sides, the pure white cliffs feature in many wartime songs and films. Not convinced? Fear not, London is just over an hour away by train.
36. What is the writer's main purpose in writing the text?
A. To explore the UK's distinctive culture.
B. To inform readers of the attractions in London.
C. To recommend some of the UK's national parks.
D. To explain why national parks are popular in the UK
37. In Dartmoor, tourists can enjoy themselves by ________.
a. going hiking b. riding wild ponies
c. having a picnic d. climbing the highest mountain there
A. a, b B. a, c C. b. c D. c, d

39. To travel around villages in the Lake District tourists can________.
A. take a train B. take a ferry C. ride a horse D. go on a boat trip

I fell in love with the Little Free Library concept years ago on vacation. The concept of free literature-sharing boxes posted in neighborhoods and public spaces hooked me. For a booklover, this represented bliss(快樂). At home, my bedside table sprouts(長(zhǎng)出)books and from the floor rises a mountainous to-be-read pile. My husband wasn’t the least bit surprised when I suggested starting our own Little Free Library- As a writer and introvert(內(nèi)向的人), I welcomed the idea of saying hello to other booklovers on occasion.
The following winter, my husband built a copy of our Irish garden shed(棚屋)with a framed glass door on the front and, in the spring, mounted(安裝)it on a post in front of our house. We filled the shelves with books, and since then, visitors have refilled them with literary fiction, romances, mysteries, science fiction, cowboy westerns, young-adult fiction, poetry, how-to’s, self-help and a range of other nonfiction.
For a time after COVID-19 first struck, public libraries shut down, and Amazon prioritized the delivery of essential and high-demand items. Books were less easily attained. Traffic to our library increased. I posted reminders about handwashing, and still, readers kept coming.
We wondered if we should close the Little Free Library and revisited(再次討論)our original motivations for hosting it: to facilitate the exchange of books, to create a sense of community. Reading provides the necessary relief to the emotional crush(壓力)of life. With this in mind, we added a written reminder on staying safe in the library.
Through my teens, reading transported me to other places and eras. Books taught me about life and how people overcame adversity(逆境). I no longer felt alone in the things I struggled against.
Aside from the entertainment books offer, studies show that reading exposes us to other cultures and perspectives. Literature sheds light on the justice to be found in social inclusion and community cohesion(凝聚). Self-esteem and understanding grow in equal measure as we come to understand ourselves and our place in the world.
During this pandemic, the Little Free Library has reinforced the importance of literature and reading to our emotional and mental health. It’s become an alternate means of creating a community of people with mutual regard for humanity and the written word. We are together even when apart.
40. What attracted the author to host the Little Free Library?
A. The emotional crush of life.
B. The free literature-sharing concept.
C. The sense of self-esteem and social justice.
D. The importance of exchanging books with each other.
41. What is the husband’s attitude toward building the Little Free Library?
A. Objective. B. Supportive.
C. Indifferent. D. Doubtful.
42. What happened to the author’s Little Free Library during the pandemic?
A. It was not allowed to be used.
B. The number of books dropped sharply.
C. It was getting more popular than before.
D. Readers questioned the motivations for hosting it
43. What can we learn from Paragraph 5?
A. How reading shaped the author’s growth.
B. How we facilitated the exchange of books.
C. How the Little Free Library further developed.
D. How literature played a role in community building.
44. What is the benefit of the Little Free Library during the pandemic?
A. It has offered solutions to the pandemic.
B. It has relieved the pressure of public libraries.
C. It has exposed readers to foreign perspectives.
D. It has helped create a united and cohesive community.

British programmer Joshua Browder is helping people save much money on legal fees with his latest project- the world’s first robot lawyer. The 19-year-old first started the project last summer as a free website to help people appeal unfair parking tickets. He came up with the idea after getting a series of tickets himself for unimportant reasons. Having wasted several hours on writing appeals to these tickets, he realized that many people have no time or legal know ledge or even the energy to appeal. So he decided to create an automatic appeal generator, which he named DoNotPay.
DoNotPay was a huge success, and the tech genius has now gone a step further with the website, converting(轉(zhuǎn)變)it into a robot lawyer equipped to help with various legal issues. “The robot can currently handle parking ticket appeals and delayed flights/trains. It can also answer some general legal questions like ‘I can’t afford my ticket. What do I do?’” said Browder.
To use the service, users need to go to the website donotpay co. uk and sign up for free. Once signed in, the robot will ask the user a series of questions about their situation. When it has collected enough information, and if the person has legal grounds(依據(jù))for an appeal, the robot will then generate a letter for the person to use.
Browder said he received good advice from his professors at Stanford University, where he is currently a freshman. “Initially, I thought the best way to go about it was to create lots of individual rules for it to follow,” he explained. “However, I quickly failed with this approach because there are thousands of ways to say the same thing and it would be impossible to catch every one. The breakthrough came when I learned how to create a way for the robot to learn and compare phrases itself, so that it doesn’t matter how the user phrases his or her requests.”
So he programmed the robot to use test comparison that includes keywords, word order and pronouns. And the more people use the robot. the better the algorithm(演算法)gets. But there are situations where the robot can’t help. “If the robot can’t answer, it provides helpful message offering the user some sample phrases or the choice of contacting me directly.” Browder said, “On the backend, whenever the robot can’t answer, I get notified and I work as quickly as possible to add functionality for any future requests of a similar nature.”
“I think it does a reasonable job of replacing parking lawyers,” Browder told Tech Insider. “I know there are thousands of programmers with more experience than me working on similar issues. If it is one day possible for any citizen to get the same standard of legal representation as a billionaire, how can that not be a good thing?”
45. What made Joshua Browder decide to develop the robot lawyer?
A. His interest in law and robot.
B. Being often fined for serious reasons.
C. A waste of much money in appealing.
D. Realizing people’s need to write appeals.
46. According to the text, at present the robot lawyer can ______.
A. teach the users to write a letter of appeal
B. create a computer program to serve its users
C. recommend some useful legal websites to users
D. deal with some common legal issues
47. To use the robot lawyer’s service, a user should first ______.
A. register online B. pay a small amount of money
C. answer the robot’s questions D. provide legal grounds for his appeal
48. What did Browder’s professors advise him to do about his robot?
A. Create enough individual rules for it to follow.
B. Teach it to communicate with its users.
C. Enabled it to learn and compare phrases on its own.
D. Store enough legal knowledge in it.
49. The underlined word “notified” in the last paragraph can be replaced by “______”.
A. warned B. informed C. convinced D. blamed
50. What is Browder’s attitude to the world’s first robot lawyer?

If I could give today’s young people three wishes, they would be: More hugs. More time outside in nature. More belief in their own power to change the world. While most people understand the importance of the first two wishes, the third one leaves some folks wondering why young people’s belief in their own power is so essential.
Let’s start with the idea that all of us--especially young people--need heroes. We need them to be our guides on the difficult trail(足跡)we call life and to show us just how far we can go. And we need heroes today more than ever. Our modern society is terribly confused about the difference between a celebrity and a hero. And the difference: is vital. A celebrity is all about fame(名望)--temporary, superficial fame, usually for qualities that are easy to see: a pretty face, a great dance move. A hero, by contrast, is about character--qualities under the surface that aren’t visible until they take action.
Heroes are all around us. They truly hold our world together, through their unselfish devotion to helping others, teaching children, and protecting the environment. They don’t want fame, or glory; they just want to help. In so many ways, these unsung heroes pilot the boat in which all of us sail.
Yet, young people hear a lot more about celebrities than about heroes in the media. The hidden message they get from all this is that their self-worth comes from what they buy--which shoes, which cell phone--not who they are down inside. What gets lost in this? Young people’s sense of their own potential for heroic qualities--their own power to make a positive difference in the world. Truth is, there is a potential hero, a future difference maker, in every young person. Each of them, from whatever background, is a positive force who can do something. All it takes for that to be true is belief.
How do we help young people believe in their own power? The best way is simply to share examples, of other young people who have made a difference.
Ryan, age 11, has worked tirelessly to raise money to provide clean drinking water to African villages. When he first heard about the plight(困苦)of African children who died from impure water, Ryan was only six years old. In the next five years, he raised over $500,000--enough to build over 70 water wells.
Barbara, age 17, grew up on a farm in Texas. When she realized that local farmers were pouring their used motor oil into rivers, causing pollution, she organized the creation of a recycling center for crude(未加提煉的)oil. Her project has grown to include18 recycling centers in Texas.
The list could continue. These are but a few examples of young people who have discovered that they can build on their own energy to do something great.

A. To give examples of celebrities and heroes around us.

52. What could be inferred from Paragraph 3?

A. Heroes and celebrities are both valued today.
B. Society doesn’t support the development of heroes.
C. The media turn ordinary celebrities into real heroes.
D. Young people don’t have the belief in their own strength.

A. By defining the qualities that make a young person a hero.
B. By contrasting the achievements made by different young people.
C. By giving examples of young people who show the qualities of a hero.
D. By providing examples of qualities that have made young people famous.

【答案】51. B 52. A 53. D 54. C 55. D
【解析】
【分析】這是一篇議論文。文章通過一些事例表明了年輕人相信自己改變世界的力量是多么的重要。
【51題詳解】
推理判斷題。根據(jù)文章第二段第四句“Our modern society is terribly confused about the difference between a celebrity and a hero. (我們現(xiàn)代社會(huì)對(duì)名人和英雄之間的區(qū)別非常困惑)”,可知,作者說出我們對(duì)“名人和英雄的區(qū)別”很困惑,所以接下來(lái)講到了“A celebrity is all about fame(名望)--temporary, superficial fame, usually for qualities that are easy to see: a pretty face, a great dance move. A hero, by contrast, is about character--qualities under the surface that aren’t visible until they take action. (名人的全部是名望——暫時(shí)的、表面上的名聲,通常是為了容易看到的品質(zhì):漂亮的臉龐,一個(gè)偉大的舞蹈動(dòng)作。相比之下,英雄是關(guān)于品格的——表面下的品質(zhì),這種品質(zhì)在他們采取行動(dòng)之前是看不見的)”,這是對(duì)這種區(qū)別的闡述,所以整段文章其實(shí)就在討論名人和英雄之間的區(qū)別。故選B項(xiàng)。
【52題詳解】
推理判斷題。根據(jù)文章第三段“They truly hold our world together, through their unselfish devotion to helping others, teaching children, and protecting the environment. They don’t want fame, or glory; they just want to help. In so many ways, these unsung heroes pilot the boat in which all of us sail. (英雄讓我們的世界團(tuán)結(jié)在一起,他們無(wú)私的奉獻(xiàn),幫助別人,教育孩子,保護(hù)環(huán)境。他們不要名譽(yù),或者榮耀。他們只是想幫忙。在很多方面,這些無(wú)名英雄引領(lǐng)著我們所有人航行)”可知,英雄在這個(gè)世界上發(fā)揮著積極著作用,推動(dòng)著世界積極的轉(zhuǎn)動(dòng)。故選A項(xiàng)。
【53題詳解】
推理判斷題。根據(jù)文章第四段中句子“What gets lost in this? Young people’s sense of their own potential for heroic qualities--their own power to make a positive difference in the world. (在這里面迷失了什么? 年輕人對(duì)自己的英雄潛質(zhì)的認(rèn)識(shí)——他們自己對(duì)世界產(chǎn)生積極影響的能力)”可知,年輕人在自我能力上產(chǎn)生了迷失,他們對(duì)自己改變世界的力量沒有信心。故選D項(xiàng)。
【54題詳解】
推理判斷題。根據(jù)文章第五段中句子“How do we help young people believe in their own power? The best way is simply to share examples, of other young people who have made a difference. (我們?nèi)绾螏椭贻p人相信自己的力量?最好的方法就是分享其他年輕人做出有影響事情的例子)”可知,作者想用分享年輕人用自己的力量做出有影響的事的例子,來(lái)論證自己的觀點(diǎn)。接下來(lái)兩段分別列舉Ryan和Barbara兩位年輕人的事例,來(lái)說明年輕人具有成為英雄的潛力。再根據(jù)最后一段“The list could continue. These are but a few examples of young people who have discovered that they can build on their own energy to do something great. (這樣的例子還有很多。這些只是一些年輕人的例子,他們發(fā)現(xiàn)自己可以依靠自己的力量做一些偉大的事情。)”可知,作者就是用舉例的方式來(lái)進(jìn)一步闡述自己觀點(diǎn)。故選C項(xiàng)。
【55題詳解】
主旨大意題。根據(jù)文章第一段最后一句“While most people understand the importance of the first two wishes, the third one leaves some folks wondering why young people’s belief in their own power is so essential. (雖然大多數(shù)人都明白前兩個(gè)愿望的重要性,但第三個(gè)愿望卻讓一些人疑惑,為什么年輕人對(duì)自己力量的信念如此重要) ”和最后一段最后一句“These are but a few examples of young people who have discovered that they can build on their own energy to do something great. (這些只是年輕人的幾個(gè)例子,他們已經(jīng)發(fā)現(xiàn)他們可以依靠自己的力量去做一些偉大的事情) ”可知,作者開頭以 “相信自己的力量”點(diǎn)題,結(jié)合第4題分析,段中例舉了幾個(gè)通過自己的力量做出改變的例子,結(jié)尾又以“自己的力量”與首段呼應(yīng),可知,整篇文章講的是年輕人應(yīng)該相信自己有能力做出有影響力有意義的事。故選D項(xiàng)。
五、閱讀表達(dá)
閱讀表達(dá)
27-year-old Lesley Kehoe and 29-year-old Gordon Bond had grown their daily travel from their home in County Kildare to their jobs in Dublin. They both loved their work, but they wanted a change and a break from their routine. Then one day they heard about Peig Sayers’ Cottage on Great Blasket Island and a decision was made immediately.
Great Blasket Island, off the beautiful coast of County Kerry, was abandoned back in 1954 after a decline in population, along with concerns about the difficulty of reaching the island in the event of an emergency. The island, which remains largely unoccupied now, does not have electricity or hot running water.
In April, Kehoe and Gordon packed their bags to head for Great Blasket Island. On the island, the couple worked to run Peig Sayers’ Cottage, a guest accommodation named after the famous Irish novelist who used to live and work there. Besides, they had to maintain the heritage(文化遺產(chǎn)) of Peig Sayers’ Cottage.
Kehoe discussed the change of lifestyle she’s had on the island, “There’s a wind turbine(發(fā)電機(jī)) to generate electricity. It wouldn’ t be powerful enough to run a vacuum cleaner or anything, but it can charge my phone.” This didn’t hamper them from enjoying life there. Disconnecting from the rush of everyday life and getting off the grid (電網(wǎng)) made them feel relaxed. They enjoyed cooking on gas cookers and lighting candles for light. Kehoe even steeled herself and got used to taking cold showers. Kehoe often shared pictures and videos that showed a way of life that may seem foreign and idyllic(悠閑的) when compared to the modern “rat race”.
The couple’s time on the island will terminate in October and Kehoe said they would be “heart-broken”to leave. She said, “I don’t think either of us is ready to leave the island; but we will have to go back to our old life. However, with this break I’ m sure we can work better after we return to our work.”
56. How did the couple react when hearing about Peig Sayers’Cottage?(no more than 10 words)
57. What did the couple mainly do on Great Blasket Island?(no more than 10 words)
58. What did the couple think of their electricity-free life?(no more than 5 words)
59. How do you understand the underlined word in Paragraph 5?(no more than 3 words)
60. What do you learn from the couple’s story?(no more than 20 words)
【答案】56 They immediately decided to go there.
57. They ran Peig Sayers’ Cottage and maintained its heritage.
58. It was relaxing and enjoyable.
59. End\ finish\ be over
60. Sometimes people may get tired of the fast-paced city life and a break from it can make them feel refreshed.
【解析】
【分析】這是一篇新聞報(bào)道。一對(duì)夫婦想要在日常規(guī)律的生活中做出一些改變,于是來(lái)到一座島上管理佩格·塞耶斯小屋。在這里,要依靠風(fēng)力發(fā)電,但是只能夠給手機(jī)充電。他們靠天然氣做飯,用蠟燭照明,習(xí)慣了冷水洗澡。他們很享受這樣悠閑的生活?,F(xiàn)在,他們馬上就要離開這座島了,但是他們很不舍得。
【56題詳解】
考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。根據(jù)第一段中“Then one day they heard about Peig Sayers’ Cottage on Great Blasket Island and a decision was made immediately. (后來(lái)有一天,他們聽說在大布拉斯基特島上的佩格·塞耶斯小屋,于是立即做出了決定)”以及第三段中“In April, Kehoe and Gordon packed their bags to head for Great Blasket Island.(四月,Kehoe and Gordon收拾行囊前往大布拉斯特島)”可知,這對(duì)夫妻聽說了佩格·塞耶斯小屋后,立即做了去那里的決定。故答案為:They immediately decided to go there.。
【57題詳解】
考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。根據(jù)第三段中“On the island, the couple worked to run Peig Sayers’ Cottage, a guest accommodation named after the famous Irish novelist who used to live and work there. Besides, they had to maintain the heritage(文化遺產(chǎn)) of Peig Sayers’ Cottage. (在島上,這對(duì)夫婦經(jīng)營(yíng)著佩格·塞耶斯小屋,這是一個(gè)以曾經(jīng)在那里生活和工作的著名愛爾蘭小說家的名字命名的賓館。此外,他們還必須保護(hù)佩格·塞耶斯小屋的遺產(chǎn))”可知,這對(duì)夫妻要經(jīng)營(yíng)佩格·塞耶斯小屋,并保護(hù)其文化遺產(chǎn),故答案為:They ran Peig Sayers’ Cottage and maintained its heritage.。
【58題詳解】
考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。根據(jù)第四段中“This didn’t hamper them from enjoying life there. Disconnecting from the rush of everyday life and getting off the grid (電網(wǎng)) made them feel relaxed.(這并沒有妨礙他們享受那里的生活。從日常生活的匆忙中解脫出來(lái),脫離電網(wǎng),讓他們感到輕松) ”可知,這對(duì)夫妻認(rèn)為這種沒有電的日子是很享受的,并且讓他們感到放松,故答案為:It was relaxing and enjoyable.。
【59題詳解】
考查詞義猜測(cè)。根據(jù)最后一段中“The couple’s time on the island will terminate in October and Kehoe said they would be “heart-broken”to leave. (這對(duì)夫婦在島上的時(shí)間將于10月terminate,Kehoe說,他們將“心碎”離開) ”可知,他們要離開這個(gè)島,所以他們?cè)趰u上的時(shí)間要結(jié)束了,terminate的意思就是“結(jié)束;停止”的意思,故答案為:End/finish/be over。
【60題詳解】
這是開放性試題。根據(jù)第一段中“They both loved their work, but they wanted a change and a break from their routine. (他們都熱愛自己的工作,但他們想從日常生活中得到改變和休息)”以及第四段中“This didn’t hamper them from enjoying life there. Disconnecting from the rush of everyday life and getting off the grid (電網(wǎng)) made them feel relaxed.(這并沒有妨礙他們享受那里的生活。從日常生活的匆忙中解脫出來(lái),脫離電網(wǎng),讓他們感到輕松) ”可知,人們可能會(huì)厭倦日復(fù)一日的快節(jié)奏的生活,從中擺脫休息一下,可以讓人放松,精神煥發(fā)。故答案為:Sometimes people may get tired of the fast-paced city life and a break from it can make them feel refreshed.。
六、書面表達(dá)

【答案】A Famous Figure in Chinese History
May 20, 2021
by Li Jin
The river of history keeps flowing, leaving the giants shining like diamonds. Among all the famous figures in Chinese history, the one that attracts me most is Su Shi.
Su Shi, also known as Su Dongpo, is a writer, poet, and politician in Song Dynasty. Born to a family with an extreme talent in literature, he wrote thousands of delicate poems, and even started a new genre. However, his political career wasn’t smooth, and kept wandering farther and farther in his later part of life. Nonetheless, whatever hardship he was faced with, he managed to overcome it, leaving us with the legendary pieces.
In my childhood, he showed me the beauty of poems, and enhanced my interest in literature. But as time goes, I start to realize that his influence on me is beyond literature. In the face of frustrations, he never compromised. Instead, he always kept his cool and optimistic attitude. I shall never lower my head, and will shout in the rain, just like him.
