A bright and impressive bus carrying fresh local produce appeared in a community of North Carolina in June 2022. It was the first pay-what-you-can Mobile Market. As the name implies, shoppers could pay any price out of their own will. Even the suggested price was about 25% less than that offered in grocery stores. This market gave shoppers a dignified way to provide food for their families regardless of their budget.
Seeing the joy in shoppers’ eyes, Will Komegay, the founder of this non-profit program—Mobile Market, felt a sense of accomplishment. He had once witnessed a wasteful and unfortunate reality. At that time, countless pounds of food had to be thrown away by farmers due to the interruption in the supply chain. Meanwhile, millions of people were struggling to afford enough food to feed their families. Kornegay didn’t want to stand by.
With much working experience in food industry and background about how food system was designed, Kornegay decided to use his company’s vast network of farmer and food industry relationships to address the issue. His team used buses to bridge the farmers, the food industries and communities that needed food most. Thousands of pounds of food that was sourced from local partners was placed into homes.
Kornegay still remembered how the first Mobile Market came into being. His team made a detailed plan and chose the colors and images they preferred. Then they purchased a “retired” school bus and renovated it, giving it a new different look and equipping it with refrigerators and freezers. Thus was born the first Mobile Market.
To date, the project has partnered with dozens of local farmers and food producers and has already served an estimated 10,000 families over 150,000 pounds of food. In 2023, the team hope to serve 80 sites across 20 counties in Eastern North Carolina. Their vision is to perfect the project where they live, and scale into every state nationwide.
4. What is the purpose of the Mobile Market?
A. To boost the income of local residents.
B. To promote sales in local grocery stores.
C. To raise money for the family with a tight budget.
D. To enable people to buy food at an affordable price.
5. How did Kornegay make the program work?
A. He ensured the food safety. B. He improved the supply chain.
C. He increased the food production. D. He built a network between communities.
6. What does the underlined word “renovated” mean in paragraph 4?
A. Transformed. B. Replaced. C. Photographed. D. Exchanged.
7. What is the prospect of the Mobile Market according to the last paragraph?
A. It will be highly profitable. B. It is expected to expand in scale.
C. It will become a new economic trend. D. It is estimated to provide worldwide service.
【答案】4. D 5. B 6. A 7. B

C
Scientists have recently discovered the world’s largest known field of sea grass. They did it using videos shot by some extraordinary helpers. The work should help protect the sea grass, and also shows off a powerful way to explore the ocean.
As a shelter for many sea creatures, sea grasses are flowering plants that normally grow in shallow waters near coasts. They grow in thick fields, known as seagrass meadows (海草床), which help clean the ocean water. More importantly, they are called “ocean lung”. They help in the fight against the climate crisis. That’s because they store huge amounts of carbon—the major source of global warming. Damaging these seagrass meadows can release this pollutant again, making things worse.
Considering the urgent need to protect seagrass meadows, scientists are eager to know about their size and number. However, the meadows can be hard to spot from above, either because the water is too deep or not clear enough. And the ocean is so huge that it’s hard to study them by diving. So scientists decided to have tiger sharks help the research.
Tiger sharks are inborn fast swimmers, and spend a lot of time in seagrass meadows. Between 2016 and 2020, the researchers attached cameras and other trackers to the fins of seven tiger sharks, and then let them go again. The cameras were designed to fall off after hours and float to the surface. Tracking signals helped find the floating cameras and collect the videos the sharks had taken while traveling for miles. Moreover, other tools were used, including satellite images, as well as images taken by divers and boats.
Putting all this information together, the scientists learned that the waters around the Bahamas are home to the largest seagrass meadow ever discovered. And the meadows cover at least 25,500 square miles, and could be as large as 35,500 square miles.
Different from previous studies, the program discovers how useful large underwater animals can be in helping to learn more about life under the sea. Oliver Shipley, a scientist from the team, says animals like tiger sharks are going to take us to new places that we didn’t know existed.
8. Why do seagrass meadows urgently need protection?
A. Damaging them will worsen climate crisis.
B. They determine the cleanliness of ocean water.
C. Sea creatures can’t survive without their shelter.
D. Their existence balances the underwater ecosystem.
9. How did tiger sharks help the scientific research?
A. By tracking signals scientists sent.
B. By bringing back cameras with videos.
C. By carrying the recording equipment around.
D. By spending a lot of time in seagrass meadows.
10. What is the highlight about the research according to the text?
A. Leading scientists. B. Advanced theories.
C. Multiple experimental tools. D. Unusual research assistants.
11. Which is the most suitable title for the text?
A. Man and Nature Work Together B. A Novel Way to Explore the Sea
C. Sea Grass: An Undervalued Plant D. Ocean Lung Measured by Natural Explorers
【答案】8. A 9. C 10. D 11. D
【解析】
【導語】這是一篇說明文。主要介紹了科學家們發(fā)現(xiàn)了世界上已知的最大的海草場。他們使用一些不尋常的助手拍攝的視頻來做到這一點：虎鯊。這項工作應該有助于保護海草，同時也展示了一種探索海洋的強大方式。
【8題詳解】
細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段中“They help in the fight against the climate crisis. That’s because they store huge amounts of carbon—the major source of global warming. Damaging these seagrass meadows can release this pollutant again, making things worse.”（它們有助于對抗氣候危機。這是因為它們儲存了大量的碳——全球變暖的主要來源。破壞這些海草草甸會再次釋放這種污染物，使情況變得更糟。）可知，海草草場迫切需要保護是因為破壞它們將加劇氣候危機。故選A項。
【9題詳解】
細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第四段中“Between 2016 and 2020, the researchers attached cameras and other trackers to the fins of seven tiger sharks, and then let them go again. The cameras were designed to fall off after hours and float to the surface. Tracking signals helped find the floating cameras and collect the videos the sharks had taken while traveling for miles. Moreover, other tools were used, including satellite images, as well as images taken by divers and boats.”（在2016年至2020年期間，研究人員在七只虎鯊的鰭上安裝了攝像頭和其他追蹤器，然后又放了它們。這些相機被設計成在幾小時后脫落并漂浮到水面上。跟蹤信號幫助找到了漂浮的攝像頭，并收集了鯊魚在幾英里外旅行時拍攝的視頻。此外，還使用了其他工具，包括衛(wèi)星圖像以及潛水員和船只拍攝的圖像。）可知，虎鯊是通過隨身攜帶記錄設備幫助科學研究的。故選C項。
【10題詳解】
推理判斷題。根據(jù)最后一段“Different from previous studies, the program discovers how useful large underwater animals can be in helping to learn more about life under the sea. Oliver Shipley, a scientist from the team, says animals like tiger sharks are going to take us to new places that we didn’t know existed.”（與之前的研究不同，該項目發(fā)現(xiàn)了大型水下動物在幫助了解更多海底生命方面的有用性。該團隊的科學家奧利弗·希普利(Oliver Shipley)說，像虎鯊這樣的動物將把我們帶到我們不知道存在的新地方。）可推知，根據(jù)文章，研究的亮點是不同尋常的研究輔助對象——即虎鯊。故選D項。
【11題詳解】
主旨大意題。根據(jù)文章大意以及第一段“Scientists have recently discovered the world’s largest known field of sea grass. They did it using videos shot by some extraordinary helpers. The work should help protect the sea grass, and also shows off a powerful way to explore the ocean.”（科學家最近發(fā)現(xiàn)了世界上已知的最大的海草田。他們使用了一些非凡的幫手拍攝的視頻。這項工作應該有助于保護海草，也展示了一種探索海洋的有力方式。）和第二段中“As a shelter for many sea creatures, sea grasses are flowering plants that normally grow in shallow waters near coasts. They grow in thick fields, known as seagrass meadows (海草床), which help clean the ocean water. More importantly, they are called “ocean lung”.”（作為許多海洋生物的避難所，海草是一種開花植物，通常生長在靠近海岸的淺水區(qū)。它們生長在厚厚的田野里，被稱為海草草地，這有助于清潔海水。更重要的是，它們被稱為“海洋肺”。）可知，主要講述了科學家們發(fā)現(xiàn)了世界上已知的最大的海草場。他們使用一些不尋常的助手拍攝的視頻來做到這一點：虎鯊。這項工作應該有助于保護海草，同時也展示了一種探索海洋的強大方式。故文章最好的標題是“由自然探險家測量的海洋肺”。故選D項。

The Roman Colosseum( 羅馬圓形大劇場), built around two thousand years ago, survived a 14th century earthquake and most of the 150-some foot high building is still standing. It has seen the rise and fall of enormous structures as well as the Roman Empire. Why could the ancient structure stand the test of time while many modern constructions fall apart after a few decades? Scientists believe the ancient Romans used a specific concrete which may account for its super-long existence.
Previous discoveries have confirmed the components of the Roman concrete: volcanic material, limestone (石灰石) and water. Architects suppose the volcanic material is what makes the building strong—which it does. But this is not enough to explain the architecture’s durability. A team of researchers recently discovered a magical power of the Roman concrete: self-healing. And the key actually lies in the tiny pieces of limestone. Worth mentioning is that researchers had taken them as impurities (雜質) due to the limitation of ancient technology. But it turned out that ancient Romans seemed to have discovered the secret.
When the Romans made the mixture, they heated up the limestone to turn it into quicklime, a very reactive chemical. Quicklime reacted with water and produced heat that set up a chemical foundation to strengthen the building material. Meanwhile, it would “wear” a hard “shell”, forming limestone pieces. It was these pieces that stopped the cracks (裂縫) from becoming bigger. When there was rain, the pieces reacted with water again, quickly filling the cracks.
For material scientist Ainissa Ramirez, this new understanding of ancient Roman concrete is a welcome discovery. “This is one way that the material can be greener,” says Ramirez, “The Romans made the material. We had to kind of figure out how they did it so that we can make better materials—and then, you know, in turn, be better guards of our environment.”
12. Why could Roman Colosseum still exist according to the text?
A. It was rebuilt constantly. B. It met few natural disasters.
C. It contained a special material. D. Its shape increased the stability.
13. What is the function of the limestone pieces?
A. To purify the concrete. B. To react with volcanic material.
C. To make the structure water-proof. D. To enable the building to repair itself.
14. What does the underlined word “it” in paragraph 3 refer to?
A. The rainwater. B. The foundation. C. The quicklime D. The limestone.
15. What can be inferred from Ainissa Ramirez’s words?
A. Architects can get inspiration from ancient structures.
B. The Romans’ building method remains a secret till now.
C. Romans’ wisdom throws light on eco-friendly architecture.
D. Scientists are exploring how to guard the ancient civilization.
【答案】12. C 13. D 14. C 15. C
【解析】
【導語】這是一篇說明文。主要介紹了羅馬斗獸場建于大約兩千年前，在14世紀的一場地震中幸存下來，大部分150多英尺高的建筑仍然屹立不倒。它見證了巨大建筑和羅馬帝國的興衰。為什么古代建筑能經(jīng)受住時間的考驗，而許多現(xiàn)代建筑在幾十年后就倒塌了？科學家認為，古羅馬人使用了一種特殊的混凝土，這可能是它超長存在的原因。
【12題詳解】

How to get a good letter of recommendation
Your professors are often asked to write hundreds of letters of recommendation during teaching in colleges. ____16____, they do play a key role in helping employers get an idea of an applicant’s personality, persistence, and passion. Here are four points to keep in mind when it comes to asking for letters of recommendation.
____17____. Ideally, the letter writer will know you well and have plenty of positive things to say without much make-up. But it never hurts to share your personal statement that includes your accomplishments and passions. After all, it’s you that know how to let your highlights stand out.
Don’t tell your professor what to say. This one is a little tricky, because it seems to contradict the tip above. ____18____, but avoid telling him exactly what to write. Professors know how to pen an effective letter of recommendation well.
Don’t ask for a letter at the last minute. Rule of thumb: Give the professor at least a few months’ notice. Remember, your professor will spend quite a while composing the letter of recommendation, so express your request in a respectful, appreciative and thoughtful way. A last minute request will annoy the professor, and it may also lead to a sub- standard letter. ____19____.
Express your gratitude. A thoughtful letter of recommendation takes time. ____20____. Most professors write dozens of recommendations, if not more. Be sure to let them know that you appreciate their time and effort. Don’t risk ending up with a regret by forgetting to send a handwritten note with a sincere thank you.
A. Nobody wins in such a hurry
B. Expose a real yourself accordingly
C. Maintain a good relationship with them
D. And chances are you aren’t the only one asking
E. Give the professor a broad outline about your request
F. While these letters may not be as important as test scores
G. Because the employers care much about the recommendation
【答案】16. F 17. B 18. E 19. A 20. D
【解析】
【導語】這是一篇說明文。主要介紹了在大學教學期間，你的教授經(jīng)常被要求寫數(shù)百封推薦信。雖然這些信件可能沒有考試成績那么重要，但它們確實在幫助雇主了解求職者的個性、毅力和熱情方面發(fā)揮了關鍵作用。并且介紹了寫推薦信的時候要記住的四點要求。
【16題詳解】
上文“Your professors are often asked to write hundreds of letters of recommendation during teaching in colleges.”（在大學教學期間，你的教授經(jīng)常被要求寫數(shù)百封推薦信。）引出話題，提到推薦信。下文“they do play a key role in helping employers get an idea of an applicant’s personality, persistence, and passion.”（它們確實在幫助雇主了解應聘者的個性、毅力和熱情方面發(fā)揮了關鍵作用。）說明信件確實發(fā)揮了關鍵作用。故可推斷空格處內容為這些信件可能沒有那么重要。結合選項F項While these letters may not be as important as test scores.（雖然這些信件可能沒有考試成績那么重要。）符合此推斷，起到上下文的承上啟下作用，上下文語意連貫。故選F項。
【17題詳解】
由該題為段落小標題可知，為總結該段內容。該段下文“Ideally, the letter writer will know you well and have plenty of positive things to say without much make-up. But it never hurts to share your personal statement that includes your accomplishments and passions. After all, it’s you that know how to let your highlights stand out.”（理想情況下，寫信人會很了解你，而且不需要化妝就能說很多積極的事情。但分享你的個人陳述，包括你的成就和激情，永遠不會有壞處。畢竟，是你知道如何讓你的亮點脫穎而出。）可知，講的是分享你的個人陳述，讓自己的優(yōu)點脫穎而出。結合選項B項Expose a real yourself accordingly.（相應地暴露真實的自己）意思一致，為總結該段內容。故選B項。

根據(jù)上文“Don’t tell your professor what to say. This one is a little tricky, because it seems to contradict the tip above.”（不要告訴你的教授該說什么。這一點有點棘手，因為它似乎與上面的提示相矛盾。）說明不要告訴你的教授該說什么。下文“but avoid telling him exactly what to write.”（但不要告訴他具體該寫什么。）為轉折關系，說明不要告訴他具體該寫什么。故可推斷空格處內容為給教授簡單的一個內容大綱。結合選項E項Give the professor a broad outline about your request.（就你的要求給教授一個大致的提綱。）符合此推斷，上下文語意連貫。故選E項。
【19題詳解】

【20題詳解】

47. 閱讀下面材料，根據(jù)其內容和所給段落開頭語續(xù)寫兩段，使之構成一篇完整的短文。
The Ex-footballer
My parents don’t see football as a profession. They think I should be an engineer, a doctor or an economist. It took me a good while to eventually persuade them to buy me a new football shirt for the school matches. My old shirt had worn out and made me depressed every time I put it on. But now I had a brand new shirt! I decided to wear it today for the first time during a kick-about in our street. But as soon as we had been playing for ten minutes, the shirt sleeve (袖子) was torn when I made a turn.
I didn’t pay much attention to it at first. I thought I would sew it back together after the match. But then I noticed that the whole sleeve was torn. Only a professional could mend it now. I couldn’t tell my mum and dad that my new football shirt was ruined. I needed a tailor. As I walked home, feeling totally at a loss what to do, I was surprised to suddenly come across a shop sign—“All kinds of repairs and services!”
I went inside immediately. Looking around the shop, I saw an iron (熨斗), broken toys and a broken chair. I guessed this was the wrong place and stood there, mind blank. At that time, a man with white hair came over warmly, “Welcome! Anything needs repairing?”
I showed him the shirt and expressed my request with great care, putting my fingers through the tear in the sleeve. To my disappointment, he told me that since he opened this shop, he had repaired many things except a football shirt. But he admitted he had been waiting so long to repair a football shirt.
What he said made me hesitate. Should I count on such a green hand? I was worried he would make it worse. After all, it was new, and my parents wouldn’t buy me a new one.
注意：
1.續(xù)寫詞數(shù)應為150左右；

The tailor seemed to understand what I was thinking at the moment.

Suddenly, I noticed a photo of a football team next to the sewing machine.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】One possible version:
The tailor seemed to understand what I was thinking at the moment. “Do you trust football, young man?” I nodded. He pointed to a shelf lined with footballs. “I like collecting discarded footballs. Repairing a football is quite healing. Sewing one is as challenging as playing it, for every stitch counts. Now, would you…” I handed him my shirt. He examined the tear and started his work professionally. While mending, he asked about my favorite footballer, and the pleasant chat perfected the repairing.
Suddenly, I noticed a photo of a football team next to the sewing machine. Flashing a knowing smile, he explained it was a long time ago, when he was the captain and when he did not undergo the operation that stopped his dream. His story just pushed me to speak out mine. He told me to pursue my dream and act like my idol, Messi—“the smallest player on the pitch but the greatest player of our time”. I thanked him, saying that not only did he mend my shirt with his craftsmanship but he also repaired my dream with sportsmanship. Giggling, he exclaimed, “Told you! All kinds of repairs and services!”
