A
Whether we live in an urban studio, or a modest-size home filled with people, space in our homes can be hard to come by. Even without a lot of stuff, keeping everything organized presents a challenge. To make the most of the space you have, incorporate these clever ideas that may help.
Double up. Consider multipurpose for every piece of furniture. Buying a coffee table? Get one with storage drawers beneath, or use a large basket topped with a pretty serving tray instead. If you need a bench, choose one that includes under-seat storage for, say, some magazines.
Get high. Always consider vertical (32H J) space. Shelves high on walls can store books, photo albums or holiday decorations. Hanging hooks for pots and pans can give you back whole kitchen cabinets, and hooks on walls provide a spot for jackets, belts or keys. Shadow boxes on bathroom walls can house pretty perfume bottles, lotions and toiletries.
Sink a basket. Baskets can help organize every area of your home. You can toss hardware tools, all the kids’ toys or several pairs of sandals in large baskets. Stick small containers in kitchen drawers to keep pens, rubber bands, stickers and magnifying glass organized.
Top drawer. A set of drawers beneath stairs can make use of otherwise-wasted floor space especially for articles not, so often used. DIY Life offers instructions for three ways of adding under-stair storage. Get them at naturalhomeand garden.com/smart-storage.
1. What is the purpose of “double up”?
A. To make use of space on the wall. B. To leave more space on the floor.
C. To keep small articles in drawers. D. To generate more functions of furniture.
2. Which can be a good solution to storing rarely-used items?
A. Double up. B. Get high. C. Sink a basket. D. Top drawer.
3. Where is the text probably from?
A. A magazine. B. An advertisement.
C A news report. D. A tour guidebook.
B
An important life lesson that I’ve drawn from running is to run at my own pace. It has guided me in many ways. In particular, it made me challenge the fixed expectations of retirement and aging.
Running is a metaphor (隱喻) for life. I realized this while training for a marathon to celebrate my 60th birthday. All the other runners being faster than me made me embarrassed. But my coach shared some valuable advice; run at your own best pace. Setting a goal or target time could be a limitation. He was right. Over time, I ran more easily and faster. I also enjoyed the experience much more.
I have applied this principle to other areas of my life. Finding a rhythm is not about efficiency or how many things I can get done in a day. It has more to do with what I decide to do at this stage in my life.
Running carries its own set of expectations, including what it means to be a strong runner. But expectations also extend to other areas of life, including what people at certain life stages should be doing or not doing. Expectations at my age can center on how leisure time is spent, decisions about employment, and even the role of a grandmother.
I used to think it was young people who bore peer pressure, but it’s easy to view retirement as another occupation with benchmarks (基準) to be met. We often make what someone else does the reference point. It’s a comparison trap.
Forget what others are doing. Their pace is not necessarily the pace you should run at. Run in your own way. It’s not better or worse — only different.
4. What does the author intend to tell in paragraph 2?
A. The origin of a life principle. B. Her misunderstanding of running.
C. The importance of life expectations. D. Her unpleasant training experience.
5. What does the author think about life expectations?
A. They are vital for retired people. B. They vary at different life stages.
C. They cover every decision in life. D. They are usually too high to fulfill.
6. What can we infer from paragraph 5?
A. Young people often compete with old people. B. Retired people take up bad occupations.
C. Retired people are also under peer pressure. D. A comparison trap makes young people stronger.
7. What message does the author mainly want to convey?
A. Retirement can’t stop old people’s dreams.
B. People should live life to the fullest.
C. People should live at their own speed.
D. Running at a fixed pace is beneficial to retired people.
C
Today, battery power per kilowatt hour costs around only ten per cent of what it did a decade ago. And the expectation is that the costs will continue to fall, because battery chemistry improves and manufacturing (批量生產(chǎn)) lots of batteries on a massive scale makes the production of individual batteries cheaper.
You can be forgiven for thinking that this might only be of interest to accountants but the possible effects of this are enormous, and will benefit all of us. First and most obviously, it has made the batteries in electric cars cheaper and longer-lasting. And brilliantly, because electric batteries are improving so dramatically, we can already see the results. Last September, 15 per cent of all-new vehicle registrations were pure electric vehicles. So the change is starting to happen.
Better batteries does not just mean better cars however. They can also help us decarbonise the entire national grid (輸電網(wǎng)). Storing energy has always been a problem for the grid. Today, only a tiny amount of generated electricity is stored for later use, which leads to lots of power going to waste. But better batteries make it technologically and economically viable to store large amounts of energy from the grid.
It’s possible that in the not-too-distant future, we might have an enormous battery in the garage. It would take power from the grid (or maybe even solar panels on the roof), and power appliances and lights in our homes at the times when demand for electricity is high. Home batteries are not yet as established as electric cars ? but-they are also growing in popularity.
So, given how much technology has improved batteries over the last decade, I can’t help but be strangely optimistic about the future. Batteries may not be as flashy (華麗的) as phones, rockets or other new technologies. But when it comes to technology to fight climate change, they’re definitely leading the charge.
8. What contributes to the popularity of electric cars?
A. The production of individual batteries.
B. The longer duration and less cost of batteries.
C. Accountants’ interest in cheaper batteries.
D. The increasing vehicle registrations.
9. What does the underlined word “viable” mean in paragraph 3?
A. Cheaper. B. Dramatic. C. Workable. D. . Exceptional.
10. What does the author expect of batteries?
A. They will become smaller.
B. They will help make the world greener.
C. They will sell better than phones.
D. They will replace chargers on a lois trip.
11. Which is the most suitable title for the text?
A. Home Batteries Will Catch On -
B. Batteries Are Getting Better and Better
C. Battery Technology Needs Improving Urgently
D. Petrol-powered Cars Will Be Upgraded
D
Researchers have recently discovered that gut bacteria (腸道細菌) that grow within our body helps the brain build important social skills.
According to a paper published in PLOS Biology in November, zebra fish were used as research subjects to test how a lack of bacteria could affect social skills. Zebra fish are social animals as even 2-week-old fish start to hang out in groups of four to twelve.
The experiment started with making a group of fish “bacteria-free” through their diet. The other group were injected with a healthy mix of gut bacteria after they were hatched. About 15 days later, the second group began swimming in groups while the “bacteria-free” group “shockingly, didn’t,” Judith Eisen, a co-author of the new research, said to Quanta Magazine.
The team then examined the fish’s brains, discovering obvious differences between the two groups. The ones who lacked the gut bacteria had more interconnections among the neurons (神經(jīng)元) in their brains in charge of social behavior, and social neurons were seen to have overgrown. This made the fish more cautious in social situations.
Scientists said that the bacteria might release a special chemical that crosses the bloodbrain barrier to reach the brain directly. Although the experiments were only on fish, the findings can theoretically be applied to humans. The team wishes to explore how gut bacteria affects the human brain in the future, which may lead to solutions to mental health problems.
Perhaps many people who claim that they have “social phobia (社交恐懼癥)” can blame their guts. However, social phobia, or social anxiety disorder, can be a serious illness if overlooked. According to the National Health Service in the UK it is more than shyness but instead a constant fear of social situations. Patients may experience panic attacks which are an overwhelming fear and anxiety that last for a few minutes.
12. What does the research focus on?
A. The growth of gut bacteria.
B. The way zebra fish build social skills.
C. The influencing factors of social behavior.
D. The link between gut bacteria and social behavior.
13. What was found in the experiment?
A. The two groups of zebra fish became different in size.
B. The bacteria-free zebra fish swam in groups.
C. The zebra fish injected with gut bacteria were quieter.
D. The zebra fish with gut bacteria swam in groups.
14. How do scientists feel about their findings?
A. Positive. B. Disappointed. C. Doubtful. D. Concerned.
15. Which is true about “social phobia” according to the last paragraph?
A. It will result in gut problems. B. It is a severe illness.
C. It may cause panic. D. It is all about shyness.

【解析】
【導(dǎo)語】這是一篇議論文。文章主要論述了作者認為每個人的人生應(yīng)該有自己的節(jié)奏,而不是按照別人的期望生活。
【4題詳解】
主旨大意題。根據(jù)第二段“Running is a metaphor (隱喻) for life. I realized this while training for a marathon to celebrate my 60th birthday. All the other runners being faster than me made me embarrassed. But my coach shared some valuable advice; run at your own best pace. Setting a goal or target time could be a limitation. He was right. Over time, I ran more easily and faster. I also enjoyed the experience much more.(跑步是人生的一種隱喻。我是在為慶祝我60歲生日的馬拉松訓(xùn)練時意識到這一點的。所有其他跑者都比我快,這讓我很尷尬。但我的教練分享了一些有價值的建議;以你自己最好的速度跑。設(shè)定目標或目標時間可能是一種限制。他是對的。隨著時間的推移,我跑得更輕松、更快了。我也更喜歡這段經(jīng)歷)”可知,作者在第2段想說生命原理的起源。故選A。
【5題詳解】
細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第四段“Running carries its own set of expectations, including what it means to be a strong runner. But expectations also extend to other areas of life, including what people at certain life stages should be doing or not doing. Expectations at my age can center on how leisure time is spent, decisions about employment, and even the role of a grandmother.(跑步有它自己的一套期望,包括成為一名強壯的跑步者意味著什么。但期望也延伸到生活的其他領(lǐng)域,包括人們在某些生命階段應(yīng)該做什么或不應(yīng)該做什么。在我這個年紀,人們的期望可能集中在如何度過閑暇時間、決定就業(yè),甚至是扮演祖母的角色)”可知,作者認為生活期望在不同的人生階段有所不同。故選B。
【6題詳解】
推理判斷題。根據(jù)第五段“I used to think it was young people who bore peer pressure, but it’s easy to view retirement as another occupation with benchmarks (基準) to be met.(我過去認為是年輕人承受著同輩壓力,但很容易把退休看作是另一種需要達到標準的職業(yè))”可推知,退休人員也面臨同輩壓力。故選C。
【7題詳解】
推理判斷題。根據(jù)最后一段“Forget what others are doing. Their pace is not necessarily the pace you should run at. Run in your own way. It’s not better or worse — only different.(忘記別人在做什么。他們的速度不一定是你應(yīng)該跑的速度。用你自己的方式奔跑。沒有好壞之分,只是不同而已)”可推知,作者主要想傳達的信息是人們應(yīng)該按照自己的節(jié)奏生活。故選C。

【8題詳解】
細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段中的“First and most obviously, it had made the batteries in electric cars cheaper and longer-lasting. And brilliantly, because electric batteries are improving so dramatically, we can already see the results. Last September, 15 per cent of all new vehicle registrations were pure electric vehicles. (首先也是最明顯的是,它使電動汽車中的電池更便宜、更耐用。而且非常出色的是,由于電池正在大幅改善,我們已經(jīng)可以看到結(jié)果。去年9月,所有新車登記中有15%是純電動汽車)”可知,電動汽車的電池變得更便宜且更耐用,所以現(xiàn)在電動汽車跑得更遠,其實用性更強,因此電動汽車注冊用戶開始增加。故選B。
【9題詳解】
詞義猜測題。根據(jù)上文“Storing energy has always been a problem for the grid.(儲存能量一直是電網(wǎng)難題)”及“But better batteries make it technologically and economically viable to store large amounts of energy from the grid. (但更好的電池使得從電網(wǎng)存儲大量能量在技術(shù)和經(jīng)濟上都是……。)”中的“But”可知,更好的電池可以解決當(dāng)前只有少量的發(fā)電被儲存的問題。由此可知,畫線詞意為“可行的,行得通的”。故選C。
【10題詳解】
細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第三段中的“They can also help us decarbonise the entire national grid. (它們還可以幫助我們實現(xiàn)整個國家電網(wǎng)的脫碳)”和最后一段中的“Batteries may not be as flashy(華麗的) as phones, rockets or other new technologies, but when it comes to technology to fight climate change, they’re definitely leading the charge. (電池可能不像手機、火箭或其他新技術(shù)那樣華麗,但在應(yīng)對氣候變化的技術(shù)方面,它們絕對是領(lǐng)先的)”可知,作者認為電池技術(shù)能幫助減少碳排放,能有力地幫助解決全球氣候問題,即可以讓世界更環(huán)保。故選B。
【11題詳解】
主旨大意題。根據(jù)第二段中“First and most obviously, it had made the batteries in electric cars cheaper and longer-lasting. (首先也是最明顯的是,它使電動汽車中的電池更便宜、更持久)”,第三段中的“They can also help us decarbonise the entire national grid. (它們還可以幫助我們實現(xiàn)整個國家電網(wǎng)的脫碳)”和第四段中的“This would take power from the grid (or maybe even solar panels on the roof), and power appliances and lights in our homes at the times when demand for electricity is high. Home batteries are not yet as established as electric cars, but they are also growing in popularity. (這將從電網(wǎng)(甚至屋頂上的太陽能電池板)獲取電力,并在電力需求高的時候為我們家中的電器和燈供電。家用電池還沒有像電動汽車那樣成熟,但它們也越來越受歡迎)”可知,作者一直在強調(diào)電池變得更好、更受歡迎,從而也讓更多人受益;再根據(jù)最后一段中的“So, given how much technology has improved batteries over the last decade, I can’t help but be strangely optimistic about the future. (因此,考慮到過去十年中技術(shù)對電池的改進程度,我不禁對未來感到異常樂觀)”可知,作者對電池的前景充滿樂觀與希望。故B項“電池越來越好”適合作本文標題。故選B。
D
Researchers have recently discovered that gut bacteria (腸道細菌) that grow within our body helps the brain build important social skills.
According to a paper published in PLOS Biology in November, zebra fish were used as research subjects to test how a lack of bacteria could affect social skills. Zebra fish are social animals as even 2-week-old fish start to hang out in groups of four to twelve.
The experiment started with making a group of fish “bacteria-free” through their diet. The other group were injected with a healthy mix of gut bacteria after they were hatched. About 15 days later, the second group began swimming in groups while the “bacteria-free” group “shockingly, didn’t,” Judith Eisen, a co-author of the new research, said to Quanta Magazine.
The team then examined the fish’s brains, discovering obvious differences between the two groups. The ones who lacked the gut bacteria had more interconnections among the neurons (神經(jīng)元) in their brains in charge of social behavior, and social neurons were seen to have overgrown. This made the fish more cautious in social situations.
Scientists said that the bacteria might release a special chemical that crosses the bloodbrain barrier to reach the brain directly. Although the experiments were only on fish, the findings can theoretically be applied to humans. The team wishes to explore how gut bacteria affects the human brain in the future, which may lead to solutions to mental health problems.
Perhaps many people who claim that they have “social phobia (社交恐懼癥)” can blame their guts. However, social phobia, or social anxiety disorder, can be a serious illness if overlooked. According to the National Health Service in the UK it is more than shyness but instead a constant fear of social situations. Patients may experience panic attacks which are an overwhelming fear and anxiety that last for a few minutes.
12. What does the research focus on?
A. The growth of gut bacteria.
B. The way zebra fish build social skills.
C. The influencing factors of social behavior.
D. The link between gut bacteria and social behavior.
13. What was found in the experiment?
A. The two groups of zebra fish became different in size.
B. The bacteria-free zebra fish swam in groups.
C. The zebra fish injected with gut bacteria were quieter.
D. The zebra fish with gut bacteria swam in groups.
14. How do scientists feel about their findings?
A. Positive. B. Disappointed. C. Doubtful. D. Concerned.
15. Which is true about “social phobia” according to the last paragraph?
A. It will result in gut problems. B. It is a severe illness.
C. It may cause panic. D. It is all about shyness.
【答案】12. D 13. D 14. A 15. C
【解析】

【導(dǎo)語】這是一篇說明文。文章主要說明了Bruce的團隊每個人都很出色,但是作為一個團隊不是很好,于是他發(fā)起了一個團隊活動來解決這個問題。
【16題詳解】
根據(jù)上文“Bruce is a manager who had a team of around 40 people. Most of them were bright, enthusiastic, and hardworking young fellows. This helps to promote their independence.(布魯斯是一名經(jīng)理,他有一個大約40人的團隊。他們大多數(shù)都是聰明、熱情、勤奮的年輕人。這有助于促進他們的獨立性)”以及后文“But as a team, they are not so good, which is crucial for the organization.(但作為一個團隊,他們不是很好,這對組織至關(guān)重要)”可知,后文提到作為團隊不是很好,but表示轉(zhuǎn)折,說明作為個人很出色,故E選項“就個人而言,團隊中的每個人都很出色”符合語境,故選E。
【17題詳解】
根據(jù)后文“He invited everyone to a hall for a game consisting of 3 rounds. For the first round, he told everyone to blow a balloon kept on the table and then write their name on it without bursting it, and each of them did it. Then they took a break outside for the second round. Soon after he called them back in, with more balloons scattered around without names on them. He declared that they had 15 minutes to find the balloon with their name written on it. (他邀請大家到大廳里玩三回合的游戲。在第一輪比賽中,他讓每個人吹一個放在桌上的氣球,然后在上面寫下自己的名字,但不要把它吹破,每個人都做到了。然后他們在外面休息,進行第二輪比賽。沒過多久,他就把他們叫了回來,還帶著更多沒有名字的氣球四處散落。他宣布他們有15分鐘的時間找到寫著他們名字的氣球)”可知,后文主要說明了Bruce通過做游戲來解決團隊表現(xiàn)不好的問題。故G選項“他決定發(fā)起一個團隊活動來解決這個問題”符合語境,故選G。
【18題詳解】
根據(jù)上文“Soon after he called them back in, with more balloons scattered around without names on them. He declared that they had 15 minutes to find the balloon with their name written on it.(沒過多久,他就把他們叫了回來,還帶著更多沒有名字的氣球四處散落。他宣布他們有15分鐘的時間找到寫著他們名字的氣球)”可知,上文提到帶來了更多的沒有名字的氣球,且本句與上文構(gòu)成因果關(guān)系,指出沒人找到自己的氣球。故A選項“因此,沒有人得到他們的氣球”符合語境,故選A。
【19題詳解】
根據(jù)上文“Bruce went to the dais and said, “You see, in the second round, no one was able to find their balloons as they were working on individual targets. But in the final round. within a couple of minutes, everyone had the balloon with them.(布魯斯走到講臺前說:“你看,在第二輪比賽中,沒有人能找到他們的氣球,因為他們都在各自的目標上工作。但在最后一輪。幾分鐘后,每個人都帶著氣球)”可知,本段中Bruce主要在總結(jié)游戲的結(jié)果,上文提到最后一輪每個人都有氣球,這論證了團隊合作和分享的力量。故C選項“這就是團隊合作和分享的力量”符合語境,故選C。
【20題詳解】
根據(jù)上文“Most of the time, people hide information, avoid collaboration, and distance themselves from their team members. (大多數(shù)時候,人們會隱藏信息,避免合作,并與團隊成員保持距離)”可知,本句承接上文說明人們隱藏信息,避免合作,并與團隊成員保持距離這種心態(tài)的影響:阻礙了團隊的成長。故F選項“這種心態(tài)阻礙了團隊的成長”符合語境,故選F。

Mrowwwwl! The cat meowed angrily as she clawed at Jennifer’s arm, drawing a thin line of blood. Just as quickly as she struck out with her claw, the agile (靈活的) orange and-white cat leaped back to her hiding space under Jennifer’s bed. From the Avec underneath the bed, two green eyes produced bright light, staring back out at Jennifer.
Jennifer was starting to feel discouraged in a major way. She was never one for giving up; but it had been sevetal days like this since she adopted the cat—Darla—from the animal shelter, struggling to win over the young cat’s affection through treats and soft and gentle whispers. It was during her summer break, so she had plenty of time to keep trying to win over the animal. But it wasn’t time that was the issue — it was Jennifer’s emotions that were quickly fading.
It had been two years since Jennifer’s beloved brown tabby (斑貓)-Marlin-passed away. She never could quite get over the shock and emptiness which remained in her heart here childlike joy once thrived. Marlin had been Jennifer’s faithful friend and loving companion rough all the pains and trials of growing up. After Marlin died, things were never quite the same again for Jennifer. It was the first real death to pierce Jennifer’s heart and signaled the end of her carefree childhood.
She desperately wanted Darla to love her the way Marlin had and for ee to love Darla just the same; but what was Jennifer supposed to do now? The cut on her arm was all she had to how for her effort. Jennifer sat on the floor, burying her face in her hands, and her body trembled as she softly began to cry.

【答案】One possible version:
After a few minutes, Jennifer noticed a strange feeling—fur. It was Darla brushing up against her face. A wave of warmth surged over Jennifer’s heart. She raised her head and found the little cat staring into her eyes, meowing gently, as if she sensed Jennifer’s pain and came to apologize. Jennifer’s tears dried out and her heart was healed by the little creature’s company. Then, a thought suddenly came to her that Darla was not the one in need of comfort, but she was.
Jennifer then reached out her hand toward the cat. Darla, suddenly aware of the hand’s presence, moved back to eye the hand cautiously, for quite a while. Then she made an attempt to approach very slowly, and finally pushed her head against the palm of Jennifer’s hand. Jennifer responded by stroking her softly, and the cat accepted. With a good stretch Darla rested happily next to her, Jennifer was clear that it was true feelings that brought them mutual trust.
【解析】
【導(dǎo)語】本文以人物為線索展開,講述了在Jennifer心愛的棕色虎斑Marlin去世兩年后,她從動物收容所領(lǐng)養(yǎng)了這只名叫Darla的貓,她拼命地想讓這只貓像Marlin一樣愛她,也想讓自己像愛Marlin一樣愛這只貓,她一直在努力通過款待和溫柔的耳語來贏得這只小貓的喜愛。但是七天過去了,這只貓還是攻擊她,她的胳膊被劃出一條細細的血線,所以她非常沮喪,坐在地板上哭了起來。
【詳解】1.段落續(xù)寫:
①由第一段首句內(nèi)容“幾分鐘后,Jennifer注意到一種奇怪的感覺——軟毛?!笨芍谝欢慰擅鑼慏arla看到Jennifer在哭,于是過來在Jennifer臉上蹭來蹭去,這讓Jennifer很感動,自己的心都被治愈了。
②由第二段首句內(nèi)容“然后Jennifer向那只貓伸出了手?!笨芍?,第二段可描寫Darla看到Jennifer的手后,試著慢慢地靠近,把頭靠在Jennifer的手掌上。他們彼此互相接受對方。
2.續(xù)寫線索:感到有毛絨絨的東西——Darla蹭臉——抬頭看到Darla——感動——伸手——Darla靠近——彼此接受
