Five years ag, a cuple fund a baby wl, near-death, n their lawn. They cnsulted with me because f my experience with wls and hawks. Eventually my wife and I undertk the task f treating the wl, Alfie, waiting ut a develpmental delay (mst f her flight feathers came especially late that first summer) , and then we taught her t fly and hunt. Alfie disappeared fr a week. Then she chse t return, centering her territry (地盤) n ur backyard. I put a nest bx n my writing studi.
Alfie’s first free-living year— mating, raising her first baby— cincided with the COVID-19 that limited us t ur yard. Friends said the birds were singing alud and happily. Frm Alfie’s perfrmance, I saw humans’ unrest and wrry when facing the unexpected virus. When Alfie and her mate, Plus-One, played in the shade, the daily rhythms and quietness f the wls’ wrld cntrasted with ur life.
Many cultures view wls as messengers f Gd. Hwever, Alfie is flesh and feathers: her heart pumps bld red as urs. She has her cmfrts and fears. She is a very real little being verall. Yet, thrughut the islatin t prevent the spread f disease, Alfie lsed herself, living cmfrtably with her mate in the yard, which certainly inspired me and my family with hpe. She is, in reality, a messenger, ne cnveying the real meaning f life.
T be fully present in life and lve, s natural fr Alfie, remains a wrk in prgress fr me. Alfie is the perfect little philsphical master. She enjys a freedm unplluted by criticism r dubt, and a liberty as the air flws beneath her wings. Resisting nthing, she is pure presence, here nw. Perhaps I’d lng labred tward the place where Alfie was effrtlessly taking me, a sense f penness, shwing what’s pssible when we mess up ur accustmed bundaries.
Alfie remains ur magical light f the nighttime backyard. By day she usually stays in a cuple f favrite shaded spts. The chice is always hers. Free within limits; that’s the universe fr her. It can inspire a life’s wrk.
4．What can we learn abut Alfie frm the first tw paragraphs?
A. She had a quick recvery.
B. She was first fund by the authr.
C. She set up a family in the backyard.

C. She has red bld as humans.
D. She is viewed as a messenger f Gd.
6．What des the authr mean by describing Alfie’s freedm as “unplluted by criticism r dubt” in paragraph 4?
A. Alfie is nt influenced by scial develpment.
B. Alfie is free frm physical and mental limitatins.
C. Alfie is cmpletely independent and self-sufficient.
D. Alfie is nt affected by external judgment r uncertainty.

Digital reading appears t be destrying habits f “deep reading”. Astnishing numbers f peple with years f schling are in effect illiterate. This mnth’s Ljubljana Manifest (宣言) explains: “The digital field may prmte mre reading than ever in histry, but it als ffers many temptatins t read in a superficial and scattered (零散的) manner — r even nt t read at all. This increasingly endangers higher-level reading.”
That’s frightening, because “higher-level reading” has been essential t civilizatin. It enabled the enlightenment and an internatinal increase in empathy. Withut it, we wuld suffer a lt. As the Ljubljana Manifest ntes, “as much as ne-third f Eurpeans struggle even with lwer-level reading skills.” Mre than ne-fifth f adults in the US “fall int the illiterate/functinally illiterate categry”. Separately, pst-pandemic reading scres fr American 13-year-lds are the lwest in decades. And the Washingtn-based Center fr Glbal Develpment recently estimated that literacy in Suth Asia and sub-Saharan Africa amng thse with five years f schling has decreased by 10% this past half century.
Experts in the Ljubljana Manifest recrd the demerits f digital reading: “Recent studies f varius kinds indicate a decline f critical and cnscius reading, slw reading, nn-strategic reading and lng-frm reading.” When yu read a bk n paper, yu can be entirely inside the experience, absrb hundreds f pages f details thrughly and begin t capture the wrld’s cmplexity. Online, says Maryanne Wlf f UCLA, we are “skimming, scanning, scrlling”. The medium is the message: ding deep reading n yur phne is as hard as playing tennis with yur phne. Recently, a bright 11-year-ld tld me I was wasting time n bks: he absrbed mre infrmatin faster frm Wikipedia. He had a pint. But digital readers als absrb mre misinfrmatin and seldm absrb fine perspectives.
In shrt, as prfessrs frm Nrthwestern University fresaw in 2005, we are returning t the days when nly an elite (精英) “reading class” cnsumes lng texts, which is wrrying.

Trtise and turtle shells can be used t study nuclear pllutin. scientists have fund. Just as tree rings can prvide snapshts (簡要說明) f the Earth’s climate, and ice cres can give us infrmatin n past temperature, researchers fund that the layers f shells can be used as a time stamp f perids with nuclear fallut.
The researchers fcused n turtles and trtises frm areas that have seen nuclear pllutin. and measured the uranium (鈾) that was present in the bny uter shell that is usually made f keratin (角蛋白) . Each layer f shell equals t ne year f the trtise’s life, and s can reveal what happened in its surrunding envirnment.
Five different turtles and trtises frm natural histry cllectins were studied. One f these came frm Enewetak Atll, and was cllected in 1978. Enewetak Atll and its neighbur, Bikini Atll, in the Pacific, were the sites f 67 nuclear tests, with Enewetak the site f 43 f these. Thugh the sea turtle was prbably nt alive during the time f the testing, researchers still fund uranium pllutin in the turtle 20 years after testing ended.
Researchers als lked at an eastern bx turtle frm Oak Ridge, Tennessee, in the US. Oak Ridge is the site f a nuclear facility that has prduced and prcessed uranium since 1943. The turtle that was studied frm there was cllected in 1962 and may have biaccumulated radinuclides, r radiactive materials, frm uranium waste prducts in the area.
The research supprts the idea that these animals can biaccumulate human-made radinuclides, r frm the envirnment. It als supprts the idea that these animals. Which ften live a lng time, can recrd infrmatin abut human activity with nuclear landscapes ver a lng perid. We anticipate that cmbining analyses f histrically cllected and mdern samples will significantly expand ur envirnmental mnitring abilities as they relate t nging nuclear pllutin questins.
12．What made the test f uranium by the researchers pssible?
A. Uranium made its mark n the turtle shells.
B. Uranium existed in large amunts in nature.
C. The turtle shells were independent frm the surrunding envirnment.
D. The turtle shells’ uter layers were cmpsed f mysterius material.
13．Which f the fllwing is TRUE accrding t paragraphs 3-4?
A. The turtle studied had t be alive during testing.
B. Bikini Atll and Oak Ridge std next t each ther.
C. Enewetak Atll had mre nuclear tests than Bikini Atll.
D. The eastern bx turtle frm Oak Ridge was cllected in 1943.
14．What is the authr’s attitude tward the research?
A. Unclear.B. Dismissive.C. Dubtful.D. Apprving.
15．What’s the best title fr the text?
A. A study n turtle cllectinsB. The imprtance f turtle shells
C. The severity f nuclear pllutinD. A hint f radiatin frm turtle shells

T act with integrity was a habit with Susan wh always fllws the Glden Rule: “D nt d t thers what yu d nt want thers t d t yu.” But when she thught ver her past cnduct, a blush f shame crept t her cheeks, as many little acts f selfishness and unkindness came back t her memry. She reslved that fr the future, bth in great things and small, she wuld remember and fllw the Glden Rule.
It was nt lng after this that an pprtunity ccurred, which tried Susan’s principles. One Saturday evening when she went, as usual, t Mr. Thmpsn’s inn, t receive the mney f her mther’s washing fr him, which amunted t five dllars, she fund Mr. Thmpsn apparently in a terrible rage with sme hrse dealers with whm he had been bargaining. He held in his hand an pen pcketbk (錢袋子) , full f bills and scarcely nticing Susan as she made her request, except t swear at her fr trubling him when he was busy, he handed her a banknte.
Glad t escape s easily, Susan hurried ut f the gate. Pausing t put the mney safely in her purse, she discvered that he had given her tw bills instead f ne. She lked arund; nbdy was near and her first impulse was jy at the unexpected prize.
“It is all mine,” said she t herself. “I will buy my mther a new cat with it, and she can give her ld ne t my sister Mary, and then Mary can g t the Sunday schl with me next winter. I wnder if I can buy a pair f shes fr my brther Tm, t.”
At that mment she remembered that he must have given it t her by mistake. But again the vice f the tempter whispered, “He gave it, and hw d yu knw that he did nt intend t make yu a present f it? Keep it! He will never knw it, fr he had t many such bills in that great pcketbk.”

參考答案
1．答案：A
解析：細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)Pricing部分的“a three-night stay fr tw with a tw-curse dinner starts frm ￡ 295. Every extra bed csts 20% f the ttal.(兩人住三晚(含兩道菜晚餐)起價295英鎊。每增加一張床要付總價的20%)”可知，一對夫婦帶著他們7歲的兒子住3晚要付的錢是￡295+￡295*20%=￡354，故選A。
2．答案：B
解析：細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)Available activities部分的“Yu can als catch the Christmas lights shw in Regent Street r listen t the carl (圣誕頌歌) singers at St Martin-in-the-Fields.(你也可以在Regent Street觀看圣誕彩燈表演，或者在St Martin-in-the-Fields聽頌歌)”可知，游客可以在Regent Street欣賞迷人的燈光。故選B。
3．答案：B
解析：細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)Bking部分“Chse yur dates and fill in yur private infrmatin, like driving licences, passprts and s frth fr yur later htel registratin.(選擇您的日期并填寫您的私人信息，如駕駛執(zhí)照，護照等，以便您稍后登記酒店)”可知，預(yù)定時添加基本的個人信息對于以后的登記入住是必要的。故選B。
4．答案：C
解析：細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第一段“Then she chse t return, centering her territry (地盤) n ur backyard. I put a nest bx n my writing studi.(然后她選擇回來，把她的地盤集中在我們的后院。我在我的寫作工作室放了一個窩盒。)”和第二段“Alfie’s first free-living year— mating, raising her first baby— cincided with the COVID-19 that limited us t ur yard.(Alfie自由生活的第一年—交配，撫養(yǎng)她的第一個孩子—恰逢新冠病毒將我們限制在院子里。)”可知，從前兩段我們可以了解到Alfie在后院組建了家庭。故選C。
5．答案：A
解析：推理判斷題。根據(jù)倒數(shù)第三段“Yet, thrughut the islatin t prevent the spread f disease, Alfie lsed herself, living cmfrtably with her mate in the yard, which certainly inspired me and my family with hpe.(然而，為了防止疾病傳播，在整個隔離期間，Alfie放松了自己，和她的伴侶在院子里舒適地生活，這無疑給我和我的家人帶來了希望。)”可知，Alfie過著悠閑放松的日子，這給作者和他的家人帶來了希望。故選A。
6．答案：D
解析：詞句猜測題。根據(jù)倒數(shù)第二段“She enjys a freedm unplluted by criticism r dubt, and a liberty as the air flws beneath her wings. Resisting nthing, she is pure presence, here nw.(她享有一種不受批評或懷疑污染的自由，一種像空氣在她翅膀下流動的自由。她不抗拒任何東西，她是純粹的存在，此時此地。)”可知，她只是她自己，不受外界的評論，因此“unplluted by criticism r dubt”的意思是Alfie不受外界判斷或不確定性的影響。故選D。
7．答案：B
解析：主旨大意題。通讀全文，尤其是倒數(shù)第三段“Yet, thrughut the islatin t prevent the spread f disease, Alfie lsed herself, living cmfrtably with her mate in the yard, which certainly inspired me and my family with hpe. She is, in reality, a messenger, ne cnveying the real meaning f life.(然而，為了防止疾病傳播，在整個隔離期間，Alfie放松了自己，和她的伴侶在院子里舒適地生活，這無疑給我和我的家人帶來了希望。實際上，她是一個信使，一個傳達生命真正意義的人。)”和倒數(shù)第二段“Perhaps I’d lng labred tward the place where Alfie was effrtlessly taking me, a sense f penness, shwing what’s pssible when we mess up ur accustmed bundaries.(也許我一直在努力走向阿爾菲毫不費力地帶我去的地方，一種開放的感覺，展示了當(dāng)我們打破習(xí)慣的界限時，什么都是可能的。)”可知，本文主要講的是作者夫婦救治了一只貓頭鷹，并從它在后院的生活方式中得到了啟示，因此主旨是B選項“The authr’s reflectin n life thrugh an wl.(作者通過一只貓頭鷹對人生的思考。)”。故選B。
8．答案：B
解析：細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第一段中“Digital reading appears t be destrying habits f “deep reading”. (數(shù)字閱讀似乎正在破壞“深度閱讀”的習(xí)慣。)”和“The digital field may prmte mre reading than ever in histry, but it als ffers many temptatins t read in a superficial and scattered (零散的) manner — r even nt t read at all. This increasingly endangers higher-level reading.(數(shù)字領(lǐng)域可能比歷史上任何時候都促進了更多的閱讀，但它也提供了許多誘惑，以膚淺和分散的方式閱讀—甚至根本不閱讀。這越來越危及更高水平的閱讀。)”可知，數(shù)字閱讀削弱了深度閱讀的實踐。故選B項。
9．答案：C
解析：推理判斷題。根據(jù)第二段中“As the Ljubljana Manifest ntes, “as much as ne-third f Eurpeans struggle even with lwer-level reading skills.” Mre than ne-fifth f adults in the US “fall int the illiterate/functinally illiterate categry”. Separately, pst-pandemic reading scres fr American 13-year-lds are the lwest in decades. And the Washingtn-based Center fr Glbal Develpment recently estimated that literacy in Suth Asia and sub-Saharan Africa amng thse with five years f schling has decreased by 10% this past half century. (正如《盧布爾雅那宣言》所指出的，“多達三分之一的歐洲人甚至在較低水平的閱讀技能上掙扎?！背^五分之一的美國成年人“屬于文盲/功能性文盲”。另外，大流行后美國13歲兒童的閱讀分?jǐn)?shù)是幾十年來最低的?？偛课挥谌A盛頓的全球發(fā)展中心(Center fr Glbal Develpment)最近估計，在過去的半個世紀(jì)里，南亞和撒哈拉以南非洲地區(qū)接受過5年教育的兒童的識字率下降了10%。)”可知，這些數(shù)字展示了目前讀寫能力的狀況不容樂觀。故選C項。
10．答案：D
解析：詞句猜測題。根據(jù)劃線詞所在句“Experts in the Ljubljana Manifest recrd the demerits f digital reading: “Recent studies f varius kinds indicate a decline f critical and cnscius reading, slw reading, nn-strategic reading and lng-frm reading.” (《盧布爾雅那宣言》的專家們記錄了數(shù)字閱讀的demerits：“最近各種各樣的研究表明，批判性閱讀、有意識閱讀、慢讀、非戰(zhàn)略性閱讀和長篇閱讀的數(shù)量正在下降?！?”中“a decline f critical and cnscius reading, slw reading, nn-strategic reading and lng-frm reading”可知，這些都是數(shù)字閱讀盛行帶來的問題和弊端，所以劃線詞demerits與drawbacks同義，意為“缺點，弊端 ”。故選D項。
11．答案：D
解析：推理判斷題。根據(jù)最后一段“In shrt, as prfessrs frm Nrthwestern University fresaw in 2005, we are returning t the days when nly an elite (精英) “reading class” cnsumes lng texts, which is wrrying. (簡而言之，正如西北大學(xué)的教授們在2005年所預(yù)見的那樣，我們正在回到只有精英“閱讀階層”才會閱讀長文本的時代，這令人擔(dān)憂。)”可知，文章最后表達了作者對現(xiàn)狀的擔(dān)憂，害怕我們會回到只有精英“閱讀階層”才會閱讀長文本的時代。由此推知，作者接下來可能會就如何練習(xí)深度閱讀給出具體的建議。故選D項。
12．答案：A
解析：推理判斷題。根據(jù)文章第二段“The researchers fcused n turtles and trtises frm areas that have seen nuclear pllutin. and measured the uranium (鈾) that was present in the bny uter shell that is usually made f keratin (角蛋白) . Each layer f shell equals t ne year f the trtise’s life, and s can reveal what happened in its surrunding envirnment. (研究人員集中研究了來自核污染地區(qū)的海龜和陸龜。并測量了通常由角蛋白構(gòu)成的骨骼外殼中存在的鈾。每層甲殼都代表烏龜一年的生命，因此可以揭示它周圍環(huán)境中發(fā)生的事情。)”可知，鈾在龜殼上留下了印記。故選A。

(我們預(yù)計，結(jié)合歷史收集和現(xiàn)代樣本的分析將大大擴大我們的環(huán)境監(jiān)測能力，因為它們與正在進行的核污染問題有關(guān)。)”可知，作者對于這項研究的態(tài)度是支持的，故選D。

②空前“Wild swimming r watersprts are a great way f living in the mment.(野外游泳或水上運動是一種很好的活在當(dāng)下的方式。)”說明野外游泳或水上運動是一種很好的生活方式，空后“Accrding t the Wild Swimming Cmmunity, immersin in cld water can help with depressin and muscle aches, and even bst the immune system.(根據(jù)Wild Swimming Cmmunity的說法，浸泡在冷水中可以幫助緩解抑郁和肌肉疼痛，甚至可以增強免疫系統(tǒng)。)”說明了游泳或水上運動能對身體健康有利，A選項“They have health benefits, t.(它們也有健康益處。)”說明空前所說的運動對健康有益，與后文具體的益處相一致，因此承上啟下，符合語境，故選A。
③空格處是本段主題句，由空后的“Whether it’s a plt r a windw bx, tending t them enables us t get int the “flw”. It als reminds us that, despite ur best effrts, sme things just dn’t g t plan— and that’s kay. Seeds might nt germinate (發(fā)芽) , creatures culd eat ur crps, r we might experience unfavurable weather.(無論是小塊地還是窗框，關(guān)注它們都能讓我們進入“心流”。它還提醒我們，盡管我們盡了最大的努力，但有些事情就是沒有按計劃進行——這沒關(guān)系。種子可能不會發(fā)芽，生物可能會吃掉我們的莊稼，或者我們可能會遇到不利的天氣。)”可知，本段主要講的是要種植綠植，F(xiàn)選項“Grwing yur wn plants can als help yu t fcus n the here and nw.(種植自己的植物也可以幫助你專注于此時此地。)”說明了種綠植可以幫助你活在當(dāng)下，因此概括了本段主要內(nèi)容，可作為主題句，故選F。
④空前“Seeds might nt germinate (發(fā)芽) , creatures culd eat ur crps, r we might experience unfavurable weather.(種子可能不會發(fā)芽，生物可能會吃掉我們的莊稼，或者我們可能會遇到不利的天氣。)”說明我們種植綠植的時候可能會遇到種子不發(fā)芽，生物吃掉我們的莊稼，或者天氣不好，空格處應(yīng)該對這一系列的情況做出評論，C選項“These things happen and they’re ut f ur cntrl.(這些事情的發(fā)生是我們無法控制的。)”說明了前面發(fā)生的事情是我們不能控制的，因此承接上文，符合語境，故選C。
⑤空前“The benefits f making things frm scratch are well-dcumented. Frm pttery t crchet (鉤針編織) , sewing and knitting, there’s smething fr everyne.(從頭開始做東西的好處是有據(jù)可查的。從陶器到鉤針，縫紉和編織，每個人都有適合自己的東西。)”說明了做手工是有好處的，空格處應(yīng)該說做手工的具體的好處，G選項“Yu’re giving yurself time t relax, experiment and get yur hands dirty.(你給自己時間去放松，去嘗試，去動手。)”說明了做手工的具體好處，因此承接上文，符合語境，故選G。
17．答案：C

23．答案：A

29．答案：B
解析：考查名詞詞義辨析。句意：那時候我們并不知道，但在之后的幾年里，我們會面臨許多類似的問題—離家、結(jié)婚、搬到另一個城鎮(zhèn)、開始一份新工作等等—這讓我們在開始自己的人生之路之前，在邊緣停下來，鼓起勇氣。A. activities活動；B. trubles問題；C. lessns課程，教訓(xùn)；D. perids期間，周期。根據(jù)句中“that wuld cause us t pause”和“cllect ur curage”這知，這些事情都是我們生活會面對的問題，會讓我們躊躇不前，需要我們鼓足勇氣。故選B項。
30．答案：C
解析：考查名詞詞義辨析。句意：那時候我們并不知道，但在之后的幾年里，我們會面臨許多類似的問題—離家、結(jié)婚、搬到另一個城鎮(zhèn)、開始一份新工作等等—這讓我們在開始自己的人生之路之前，在邊緣停下來，鼓起勇氣。A. crner角落，拐角處；B. rute路線；C. edge邊緣；D. line線，排。照應(yīng)第二段中“We std nce mre at the tp f that hill, lking dwn frm the edge”作者用edge比喻出發(fā)前的躊躇和等待。故選C項。

解析：考查連詞詞義辨析。句意：那時候我們并不知道，但在之后的幾年里，我們會面臨許多類似的問題—離家、結(jié)婚、搬到另一個城鎮(zhèn)、開始一份新工作等等—這讓我們在開始自己的人生之路之前，在邊緣停下來，鼓起勇氣。A. when當(dāng)……的時候；B. because因為；C. after在……之后；D. befre在……之前。根據(jù)句中“cllect ur curage”和“we launched urselves dwn the trails f ur lives.”可知，在出發(fā)前要先鼓起勇氣，用befre引導(dǎo)時間狀語從句。故選D項。
32．答案：an ；t prduce ；cpying ；Traditinal ；divided ；r；are carved ；where；pursuit；t
解析：①考查冠詞。句意：精致的筆觸，雕刻在木頭上，極其精確—這就是木版印刷，一種推動人類文明發(fā)展的古老印刷技術(shù)。technique是可數(shù)名詞的單數(shù)形式，表泛指，前面要加不定冠詞，ancient是元音音素開頭，因此不定冠詞用an，故填an。
②考查不定式。句意：唐朝（618-907）佛教在中國蓬勃發(fā)展，因此迫切需要大量的佛經(jīng)。need后用不定式作后置定語，因此空格處是不定式t prduce。故填t prduce。
③考查動名詞。句意：與此同時，手工抄寫無法滿足日益增長的需求?？崭裉幱脛用~cpying作主語，故填cpying。
④考查形容詞。句意：傳統(tǒng)的木版印刷包括四個主要步驟：書寫、雕刻、印刷和裝訂。空格處用形容詞作定語，修飾名詞wdblck printing，traditin的形容詞是traditinal，意為“傳統(tǒng)的”，位于句首，首字母大寫，故填Traditinal。
⑤考查非謂語動詞。句意：每一步都進一步分為幾個步驟，大約需要30個步驟來制作木版版畫。空格處是with復(fù)合結(jié)構(gòu)，step和divide之間是邏輯動賓關(guān)系，因此空格處用過去分詞表被動，作賓語補足語，故填divided。
⑥考查連詞。句意：雕刻是木版印刷的核心，因為這一艱苦的步驟可以成就或破壞最終的版畫。根據(jù)語境可知，句子表示“這一艱苦的步驟可以成就或破壞最終的版畫”，空格處意為“或者”，是r，故填r。
⑦考查時態(tài)，語態(tài)和主謂一致。句意：文字和圖像被雕刻成凸起的區(qū)域或線條，最終將墨水涂在紙上。文字和圖像是被雕刻成凸起的區(qū)域或線條，句子描述客觀事實，因此句子用一般現(xiàn)在時的被動語態(tài)，主語Characters and images是復(fù)數(shù)，因此空格處是are carved。故填are carved。
⑧考查定語從句。句意：868年印刷的一卷五米長的佛教經(jīng)典《金剛經(jīng)》，用大英圖書館的話說，是“日期最早的印刷書籍”?？崭裉幰龑?dǎo)的是限制性定語從句，從句中不缺主語或賓語，先行詞British Library是地方，因此空格處用關(guān)系副詞where，故填where。
⑨考查名詞。句意：這只是古代藝術(shù)作品的一個例子，它不僅講述了我們祖先的智慧，也證明了幾個世紀(jì)以來中國工匠對美的追求。由空前的the和空后的f可知，空格處用名詞，pursue的名詞是pursuit，意為“追求”，是不可數(shù)名詞，故填pursuit。
⑩考查介詞。句意：文字的發(fā)明孕育了偉大的思想，但印刷術(shù)的發(fā)明使知識成為全人類共享的成果。give life t...是固定短語，意為“賦予……生命”，因此空格處是介詞t，故填t。
