Christmas is a time for eating great food, giving and receiving presents, and most importantly spending time with your family watching some classic Christmas movies.
The Grinch (2000)
This is a Christmas must-watch and one of Jim Carrey’s best performances. It was also originally a nursery tale book written by Dr Seuss. It’s the story of a green monster who wants to ruin Christmas but in the end discovers the power of love and generosity. I promise it’s a great film with plenty of laughs along the way.
Love Actually (2003)
While this is not a personal favourite of mine, people in the UK absolutely love this film. It has many featuring actors and actresses. It might be a little difficult to follow as there are complex plots, so I recommend watching a translated version. However, the heart-warming elements of the film make it worth watching.
Home Alone (1990)
This amusing masterwork is one of my favourite films of all time. It tells the story of a boy, Kevin, who is left alone in his house when his large family forgets to take him on vacation with them. While other family members are away, burglars try to rob the house and Kevin must protect his home by setting traps. The trips, falls and traps will have you laughing out loud as you watch an 8-year-oldboy beat two grown men.
Miracle on 34th Street (1994)
You can’t have Christmas in an English-speaking country without watching this movie. It’s not funny like Home Alone or The Grinch, but it is incredibly touching. It’s about a man who claims to be Santa, but nobody believes him except a lawyer and a little girl. The storyline may seem a little childish but you can enjoy it at any age.
21 Which film is adapted from a fairy tale?
A. The Grinch. B. Home Alone. C. Love Actually. D. Miracle on 34th Street.
22. What is Home Alone mainly about?
A. An unsuccessful family vacation.
B. A boy protecting his home by himself.
C. A terrible suffering of a little boy.
D. An 8-year-oldboy’s practical jokes.
23. Why is Miracle on 34th Street so popular?
A. Owing to its moving plot.
B. Because of its funny story.
C. Due to its childish storyline.
D. Because of its famous actors and actresses.

【23題詳解】
細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)Miracle on 34th Street (1994)部分中“It’s not funny like Home Alone or The Grinch, but it is incredibly touching.

Food waste is a serious problem. In 2010, nearly 133 billion pounds worth of food was transported to U.S. landfills. Food waste is truly a waste to all of humanity. That’s because when you throw out a rotten apple or a moldy container of leftovers, you’re not just throwing away the food, but all the resources that went into producing it.
Water plays a major role in food production, and as a result, food waste translates to a large amount of water wastage. All foods have a water footprint, the direct and indirect water that goes into producing a certain food, although some footprints are larger than others. In general, meats tend to need the most water for production, primarily because of the amount of food the animal needs. Also, larger animals aren’t as efficient in terms of meat production as smaller animals like chickens or turkeys, and the bigger beasts therefore have a larger water footprint.
Food waste has environmental impacts, too. “If you put all the food waste into one country, it would be the world’s third largest greenhouse gas emitter,” says Brian Lipinski, an associate in the World Resource Institute’s Food Program. Decomposing (分解) food that makes its way into landfills releases methane (甲烷), which is significantly more harmful to the environment than carbon dioxide.
All is not lost, however. There are many efforts underway to cut food loss at every level. The U.S. Department of Agriculture and the Environmental Protection Agency recently called for a 50 percent reduction in food waste by 2030. Meanwhile, Portland launched a citywide composting (堆制肥料) program a few years ago. And at the retail (零售) level, the former president of Trader Joe’s recently opened a store near Boston that sells surplus food donated by grocery stores at low prices.
Still, waste can’t be avoided. There’s never going to be some ideal or perfect way to eliminate it all. Fortunately, change at any level, whether it’s as a supplier, retailer or consumer, will help ease the impact of food waste on natural resources.
24. Why is wasting food a waste of water resources?
A. Food waste contains a lot of water.
B. Food waste causes water pollution.
C. Food production needs plenty of water.
D. Dealing with food waste consumes much water.
25. How does food waste influence the environment?
A. It smells rather terrible.
B. It poisons the soil severely.
C. It carries a lot of bacteria.
D. It releases a greenhouse gas.
26. What is Paragraph 4 mainly about?
A. Strategies for ensuring food safety.
B. Measures for reducing food waste.
C. Benefits of the composting program.
D. Causes of monitoring food production.
27. What does the author convey in the last paragraph?
A. Better late than never.
B. Content is better than riches.
C. Many hands make light work.
D. Make hay while the sun shines.
【答案】24. C 25. D 26. B 27. A

【24題詳解】
細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段中“Water plays a major role in food production, and as a result, food waste translates to a large amount of water wastage.(水在食物生產(chǎn)中起著重要作用,因此,食物浪費(fèi)轉(zhuǎn)化為大量的水浪費(fèi)。)”可知,浪費(fèi)食物就是在浪費(fèi)水是因?yàn)槭澄锷a(chǎn)過程中需要大量的水。故選C項(xiàng)。
【25題詳解】
細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第三段中“Decomposing (分解) food that makes its way into landfills releases methane (甲烷), which is significantly more harmful to the environment than carbon dioxide.(食物分解后進(jìn)入垃圾填埋場會(huì)釋放出甲烷,這比二氧化碳對環(huán)境的危害要大得多。)”可知,被浪費(fèi)的食物會(huì)釋放出溫室氣體,破壞環(huán)境。故選D項(xiàng)。
【26題詳解】
主旨大意題。根據(jù)第四段中“There are many efforts underway to cut food loss at every level. The U.S. Department of Agriculture and the Environmental Protection Agency recently called for a 50 percent reduction in food waste by 2030. Meanwhile, Portland launched a citywide composting (堆制肥料) program a few years ago. And at the retail (零售) level, the former president of Trader Joe’s recently opened a store near Boston that sells surplus food donated by grocery stores at low prices.(在各個(gè)層面上都在努力減少食物損失。美國農(nóng)業(yè)部和環(huán)境保護(hù)署最近呼吁到2030年將食物浪費(fèi)減少50%。與此同時(shí),波特蘭在幾年前啟動(dòng)了一項(xiàng)全市范圍的堆肥計(jì)劃。在零售層面,Trader Joe’s的前總裁最近在波士頓附近開了一家店,以低價(jià)出售雜貨店捐贈(zèng)的剩余食品。)”可知,本段介紹了各方為減少食物損失而采取的措施,既有宏觀政策層面的,也有零售層面的。故選B項(xiàng)。
【27題詳解】
推理判斷題。根據(jù)最后一段“Still, waste can’t be avoided. There’s never going to be some ideal or perfect way to eliminate it all. Fortunately, change at any level, whether it’s as a supplier, retailer or consumer, will help ease the impact of food waste on natural resources.(然而,浪費(fèi)是無法避免的。永遠(yuǎn)不會(huì)有理想或完美的方法來消除它。幸運(yùn)的是,任何層面的改變,無論是作為供應(yīng)商、零售商還是消費(fèi)者,都將有助于緩解食物浪費(fèi)對自然資源的影響。)”可知,雖然食物浪費(fèi)無法完美地解決,但是任何一方的努力都可以緩解它對自然資源造成的影響。由此推知,作者想表達(dá)在采取行動(dòng)減少食物浪費(fèi)的問題上,遲做總比不做好。故選A項(xiàng)。
C
The African penguin is expected to go extinct in the wild in just over a decade, given its current population decline. The main reason is a lack of food caused by disturbance to ocean conditions from global heating and competition from the commercial fishing industry. According to a study, scientists have identified a possible additional cause, one that is an entirely new threat and that further prevents the penguins from finding food: noise pollution from marine (海洋的) ships in a bay.
Since 2016, a new shipping practice has started at Algoa Bay. The bay offers ship-to-ship refueling (加油) for ships anchored onshore. Since the start of this practice, marine traffic in the bay has doubled. The number of bulk carriers (散裝貨船) pulling into the bay has increased tenfold. Thus, the noise levels in the area had doubled and the population of penguins has dropped sharply. High noise levels affect the ability of marine animals to find food, communicate or navigate properly.
Researchers used data from ship identification tools to estimate underwater noise from passing ships. They also attached underwater microphones and accelerometers (加速計(jì)) to some of the penguins. Recording the noise will tell researchers what the penguins are hearing, if they’re talking while hunting, if they’re changing their movements in response to noise, and if the noise is drowning out their hunting conversations. This will allow researchers to determine whether the sound disturbance is a direct cause of the penguins’ ongoing difficulties in finding sufficient food.
The study is the first to explore the effects of ocean traffic noise pollution on seabirds and the consequences of offshore shipping activities on underwater noise levels. Experts are considering proposing various global best-practice approaches to reduce some of the impacts of noise pollution, such as policies that limit the number and size of ships allowed into a bay of this kind. “We also need more scientific monitoring of noise, before these measures are put in place and afterward, so that we have a proper understanding of what works,” a researcher said.
28. What is the cause of the high-level noise at Algoa Bay?
A. The busy ship-to-ship refueling activities.
B. The frequent large-scale fishing practices.
C. The increasing number of offshore power plants.
D. The construction of natural reserves for marine animals.
29. Why did scientists record the noise?
A. To study the way of relieving marine traffic pressure.
B. To determine and analyze the source of ocean noise pollution.
C. To calculate underwater noise levels caused by different ships.
D. To explore the impact of ocean noise on penguins’ hunting behavior.
30. What could be a solution to noise pollution according to experts?
A. Collecting a transport taxon passing ships.
B. Banning unapproved offshore shipping activities.
C. Restricting the number and size of ships in the bay.
D. Establishing a long-term monitoring system for underwater noise.
31. What is the main idea of the text?
A. Global warming makes it harder for animals to find food.
B. High-level noise poses a threat to both humans and animals.
C. Noise from marine ships causes African penguins to go extinct.
D. Shipping activities reduce the species of sea animals in Algoa Bay.

(自2016年以來,Algoa灣開始了一項(xiàng)新的航運(yùn)業(yè)務(wù)。該海灣為停泊在岸上的船只提供船對船加油服務(wù)。自從這種做法開始以來,海灣的海上交通量翻了一番。駛?cè)牒车纳⒇洿瑪?shù)量增加了十倍。因此,該地區(qū)的噪音水平翻了一番,企鵝數(shù)量急劇下降。)”可知,Algoa灣為停泊在岸上的船只提供船對船加油服務(wù)使此海灣的交通量和散貨船數(shù)量增加,導(dǎo)致該地區(qū)的噪音水平翻了一番,由此可知,繁忙的船對船加油活動(dòng)是Algoa灣高噪音的原因。故選A。
【29題詳解】
細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第三段“Researchers used data from ship identification tools to estimate underwater noise from passing ships. They also attached underwater microphones and accelerometers (加速計(jì)) to some of the penguins. Recording the noise will tell researchers what the penguins are hearing, if they’re talking while hunting, if they’re changing their movements in response to noise, and if the noise is drowning out their hunting conversations. This will allow researchers to determine whether the sound disturbance is a direct cause of the penguins’ ongoing difficulties in finding sufficient food.(研究人員使用船只識(shí)別工具的數(shù)據(jù)來估計(jì)過往船只的水下噪音。他們還在一些企鵝身上安裝了水下麥克風(fēng)和加速度計(jì)。記錄噪音可以告訴研究人員企鵝聽到了什么,它們在捕獵時(shí)是否在說話,它們是否在改變動(dòng)作以應(yīng)對噪音,以及噪音是否淹沒了它們的捕獵對話。這將使研究人員能夠確定聲音干擾是否是企鵝持續(xù)難以找到足夠食物的直接原因。)”可知,科學(xué)家們記錄下這些噪音,是為了探索海洋噪音對企鵝捕食行為的影響。故選D。
【30題詳解】
細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文章最后一段中“Experts are considering proposing various global best-practice approaches to reduce some of the impacts of noise pollution, such as policies that limit the number and size of ships allowed into a bay of this kind.(專家們正在考慮提出各種全球最佳實(shí)踐方法,以減少噪音污染的一些影響,例如限制進(jìn)入這類海灣的船只數(shù)量和大小的政策。)”可知,可以通過限制船只進(jìn)入海灣減少噪音污染。故選C。
【31題詳解】
主旨大意題。根據(jù)第一段“The African penguin is expected to go extinct in the wild in just over a decade, given its current population decline. The main reason is a lack of food caused by disturbance to ocean conditions from global heating and competition from the commercial fishing industry. According to a study, scientists have identified a possible additional cause, one that is an entirely new threat and that further prevents the penguins from finding food: noise pollution from marine (海洋的) ships in a bay.(考慮到目前非洲企鵝數(shù)量的下降,預(yù)計(jì)在十多年后野生非洲企鵝將滅絕。主要原因是全球變暖對海洋環(huán)境的干擾和商業(yè)捕魚業(yè)的競爭造成了食物短缺。根據(jù)一項(xiàng)研究,科學(xué)家們已經(jīng)確定了一個(gè)可能的額外原因,這是一個(gè)全新的威脅,進(jìn)一步阻止企鵝尋找食物:海灣中船舶的噪音污染。)”以及第二段中“Since 2016, a new shipping practice has started at Algoa Bay. The bay offers ship-to-ship refueling (加油) for ships anchored onshore. Since the start of this practice, marine traffic in the bay has doubled. The number of bulk carriers (散裝貨船) pulling into the bay has increased tenfold. Thus, the noise levels in the area had doubled and the population of penguins has dropped sharply. High noise levels affect the ability of marine animals to find food, communicate or navigate properly.(自2016年以來,Algoa海灣開始了一項(xiàng)新的航運(yùn)業(yè)務(wù)。該海灣為停泊在岸上的船只提供船對船加油服務(wù)。自從這種做法開始以來,海灣的海上交通量翻了一番。駛?cè)牒车纳⒇洿瑪?shù)量增加了十倍。因此,該地區(qū)的噪音水平翻了一番,企鵝數(shù)量急劇下降。高噪音水平會(huì)影響海洋動(dòng)物正確覓食、交流或?qū)Ш降哪芰Α?”可知本文主要闡述了一項(xiàng)研究發(fā)現(xiàn),航運(yùn)活動(dòng)造成的高噪音使Algoa海灣的海洋動(dòng)物種類減少;由此可知,D選項(xiàng)“Shipping activities reduce the species of sea animals in Algoa Bay.(航運(yùn)活動(dòng)減少了Algoa灣的海洋動(dòng)物種類。)”符合文章主旨。故選D。

There’s a new AI bot: ChatGPT, and you’d better pay attention, even if you aren’t into artificial intelligence. The tool is an AI chatbot system that OpenAI released in November 2022 to show off and test what a very large, powerful AI system can achieve.
ChatGPT remembers the thread of your dialogue, using previous questions and answers to inform its next responses. It derives its answers from huge volumes of information on the Internet. ChatGPT is built on top of the OpenAI GPT-3 family of large language models and is fine-tuned (a method of transfer learning) using both supervised and reinforcement learning (監(jiān)督和強(qiáng)化學(xué)習(xí)).
You can ask ChatGPT anything, like explaining physics, asking for birthday party ideas and getting programming (編程) help. Perhaps it’s not smart enough to replace all humans yet, but it can be creative, and its answers can sound downright authoritative. A few days after its launch, more than 1 million people were trying out ChatGPT. UBS analyst Lloyd Walmsley estimated in February 2023 that ChatGPT reached 100 million monthly users in January, accomplishing in 2 months what took TikTok about 9 months and Instagram two and a half years.
ChatGPT is free to use at the moment because it is still in its research phase. But when too many people hop onto the server (服務(wù)器), it overloads and can’t process your request. It just means you should try visiting the site at a later time when fewer people are trying to access it. If you want to skip the wait and have reliable access, there is an option for you. As of Feb.1, 2023, OpenAI has a ChatGPT pro plan, ChatGPT Plus, which allows users to have general access even during peak times. This service does come at a cost of $20 / month.’
However, ChatGPT can not replace Google. ChatGPT is an artificial intelligence bot that provides solutions to your questions, but Google is a search engine in which you can search for as much information as possible. ChatGPT has limited knowledge due to its programming but Google has unlimited knowledge which is updated every day.

We know that choosing a college major can be very hard. But have no fear! Your choice of major will not lock you into a specific career for the rest of your life. Here's what you need to know about college majors before you commit.
What is a major?
___36___Beyond general college requirements, you'll also take a group of courses in a subject of your choosing such as Chemistry, Literature, or Political Science.
How important is my major?
The major you choose will neither predict nor guarantee your future. Many graduates find jobs that have nothing to do with what they studied in college. If you intend to earn a professional degree after college, you will probably need certain courses. ___37___
When do I declare a major?
This varies widely across schools and programs.____38____Others require that you declare upon a major by the time that you set foot inside your first class.
___39___
Definitely. One of the most exciting aspects of college life is that it introduces you to new subjects and arouses new passions. However, keep this in mind. Every major has necessary coursework. If you change your major late in the game, it may take more than the traditional four years to earn a degree.
What are minors and double majors?
If one field of study doesn’t satisfy your intellectual appetite, consider a minor. A minor is similar to a major in that it’s an area of academic concentration.___40___A double major provides you with an understanding of two academic fields. It allows you to become familiar with two sets of values and views while it also requires you to fulfill two sets of requirements.
A. Can I change my mind?
B. Is my major time-consuming?
C. It's your specialized area of study in college.
D. Most students find one major is more than enough.
E. Some schools may give you one year or more to decide.
F. But many future doctors major in non-science related fields.
G. The only difference is that it doesn’t require as many classes.
【答案】36. C 37. F 38. E 39. A 40. G
【解析】
【分析】這是一篇說明文,介紹了關(guān)于大學(xué)所選專業(yè)的一些信息。
【36題詳解】
本段小標(biāo)題為“什么是專業(yè)?”,根據(jù)下文Beyond general college requirements, you'll also take a group of courses in a subject of your choosing such as Chemistry, Literature, or Political Science.可知,除了通用的大學(xué)要求,你還將學(xué)習(xí)一門你選擇的課程,如化學(xué),文學(xué)或政治科學(xué)。符合本段主題,承接下文,C項(xiàng)(這是你在大學(xué)學(xué)習(xí)的專業(yè)領(lǐng)域。)切題。故選C項(xiàng)。
【37題詳解】
根據(jù)上文If you intend to earn a professional degree after college, you will probably need certain courses.可知,如果你打算在大學(xué)畢業(yè)后獲得專業(yè)學(xué)位,您可能需要某些特定的課程。F項(xiàng)(但許多未來的醫(yī)生主修非科學(xué)相關(guān)領(lǐng)域。)與之形成對比,闡釋了“The major you choose will neither predict nor guarantee your future.(你的專業(yè)選擇既不會(huì)預(yù)測也不會(huì)保證你的未來)”這一句話,故選F項(xiàng)。
【38題詳解】
根據(jù)上文This varies widely across schools and programs可知,關(guān)于什么時(shí)候選專業(yè),不同學(xué)校和項(xiàng)目的差異很大。根據(jù)下文Others require that you declare upon a major by the time that you set foot inside your first class.可知,其他學(xué)校則要求你在上第一節(jié)課時(shí)就申請專業(yè)。承上啟下,E項(xiàng)(有些學(xué)??赡軙?huì)給你一天或以上的時(shí)間去決定)切題,故選E項(xiàng)。
【39題詳解】
根據(jù)這一段中If you change your major late in the game可知,這一段與換專業(yè)有關(guān),故選A項(xiàng)(我可以改變主意嗎?)
【40題詳解】
根據(jù)上文If one field of study doesn' t satisfy your intellectual appetite, consider a minor. A minor is similar to a major in that it’s an area of academic concentration.可知,如果一個(gè)研究領(lǐng)域不能滿足您的智力需求,考慮輔修。輔修專業(yè)與主專業(yè)相似的地方是它們都是學(xué)術(shù)集中的領(lǐng)域。承接上文,G項(xiàng)(唯一的區(qū)別是它不需要上那么多課。)切題,故選G項(xiàng)。
第三部分、完形填空(共20小題,每題1.5分,共30分)
閱讀短文從所給的A,B,C,D所給的選項(xiàng)中選擇最佳答案

Jose was a devoted teacher for a local high school in California. Unfortunately, with the money he earned, he couldn’t support his family and extended family in Mexico and rent an apartment in California at the same time. Therefore, having failed to afford the rental of even a shoebox apartment, he had no choice but to live in his old car occasionally to make ends meet until he could find another place to live.
To make matters worse, he found himself living this unfortunate lifestyle after Covid-19 swept the world when California schools closed their doors following the outbreak. This left Jose with little means for making money. So at age 77, Jose ended up living inside of his car. For about two years he was homeless. Home was his car, and his car sat in a grocery store parking lot. During daytime he drove to different locations, looking for job opportunities while he spent most of his nights at the same parking lot, which gave him a sense of belonging.
At day time, he would lean his seat all the way back, so no one would see him because he knew he wasn’t supposed to be there and worried the manager of the grocery store would drive him away. He was a man of self-respect and didn’t want to turn to charity.
When Maggie, the manager of the grocery store did see Jose, she felt he looked familiar because she used to be in his class many years ago. She could still remember how Jose encouraged her to finish her education when she was struggling with her learning. She noticed Jose spent a considerable amount of time in his car, she suspected her teacher had fallen on hard times. She became determined to help her former teacher in his time of need. So, the former student decided to repay the favor and help her homeless teacher.
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。
One morning, Maggie knocked at the window of the car.
______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Seeing Jose refused the money, Maggie wanted to help him without hurting his feeling.
______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】One morning, Maggie knocked at the window of the car. Jose wound down the window and apologized to the lady standing by his car. He said he would drive away soon to make room for other customers. Tears in eyes, Maggie asked him whether he still remembered her. Jose was puzzled at first but soon recognized her. Embarrassed, he told Maggie about his situation. Maggie took out an envelope and handed it to Jose. To his surprise, there were $2000 in it. However, the teacher didn’t accept it.
Seeing Jose refused the money, Maggie wanted to help him without hurting his feeling. She decided to offer him a job in her store, saying that all he needed to do was to check the temperature of customers at the gate of the parking lot. Jose agreed and worked really hard. With his salary, not only could he afford his food but he also managed to rent a little flat. It was small, but he was no longer homeless. Kindness and dedication will pay off one day.
【解析】
【分析】本文是以人物為線索展開,講述Jose是一名教師,家里的經(jīng)濟(jì)情況很不好,他無法負(fù)擔(dān)起租一個(gè)公寓,所以只能睡到車?yán)铩S捎谛鹿谝咔榈挠绊?,他失業(yè)了,使他拮據(jù)的生活更是雪上加霜。他的車一直停在一個(gè)雜貨店旁邊的停車場上,這個(gè)雜貨店的經(jīng)理瑪吉是Jose的學(xué)生,她看到她曾經(jīng)的老師遇到困難,決定幫幫他。
【詳解】1.段落續(xù)寫:
①由第一段首句內(nèi)容“一天早上,瑪吉敲了敲車窗?!笨芍?,第一段要寫瑪吉如何讓Jose認(rèn)出她而且直接給了老師錢,想要幫助他。
②由第二段首句內(nèi)容“看到Jose拒絕了這筆錢,瑪吉想在不傷害他的感情的情況下幫助他?!笨芍?,在老師沒有接受錢的情況下,瑪吉想了其它的不傷害老師自尊心的辦法來幫助老師。
2.續(xù)寫線索:老師認(rèn)出她——給老師錢——老師拒絕——給老師提供工作——經(jīng)濟(jì)情況得到改善——感悟。
3.詞匯激活
行為類:
①向某人道歉:apologize to sb. /give sb. an apology
