One day, gardeners might nt just hear the buzz f bees amng their flwers, but the whirr f rbts, t. Scientists have managed t turn an unassuming drne (無人機) int a remte-cntrlled pllinatr (授粉媒介) by attaching hrsehairs cated with a special, sticky gel t its underbelly.
Animal pllinatrs are needed fr the reprductin f 90% f flwering plants and ne third f human fd crps. Chief amng thse are bees — but many bee ppulatins in the United States have been in steep decline in recent decades. Thus, the decline f bees isn't just wrrisme because it culd disrupt ecsystems, but als because it culd disrupt agriculture and ecnmy. Peple have been trying t cme up with replacement techniques, but nne f them are especially effective yet.
Scientists have thught abut using drnes, but they haven't figured ut hw t make free-flying rbt insects that can rely n their wn pwer surce withut being attached t a wire. “It’s very tugh wrk,” said senir authr Eijir Miyak, a chemist at the Natinal Institute f Advanced Industrial Science and Technlgy. His particular cntributin t the field invlves a gel, ne he’d cnsidered a mistake 10 years befre and stuck in a strage cabinet. When it was rediscvered a decade later, it hadn’t dried up r degraded at all. “I was s surprised because it still had high viscsity,” Miyak said.
The chemist nticed that when drpped, the gel absrbed an impressive amunt f dust frm the flr. Miyak realized this material culd be very useful fr picking up pllen (花粉). He and his clleagues chse a drne and attached hrsehairs t its smth surface t mimic a bee’s fuzzy bdy. They cated thse hrsehairs in the gel, and then cntrlled the drnes ver lilies, where they wuld pick up the pllen frm ne flwer and then depsit the pllen at anther ne, thus fertilizing it.
The scientists lked at the hairs under a scanning electrn micrscpe and cunted up the pllen grains attached t the surface and fund that the drnes whse hrsehairs had been cated with the gel had abut 10 times mre pllen than thse that had nt been cated with the gel.
Miyak des nt think such drnes wuld replace bees altgether, but culd simply help bees with their pllinating duties. There’s a lt f wrk t be dne befre that's a reality, hwever. Small drnes will need t becme mre cntrllable and energy efficient, as well as smarter, with better GPS and artificial intelligence.
27. What des the underlined wrd “viscsity” in Para.3 prbably mean?
A. Hardness.B. Stickiness.
C. Flexibility.D. Purity.
28. We can learn frm the passage that ______.
A. bees disrupt bth agriculture and ecnmy
B. scientists have invented self-pwered rbt insects
C. bees in the United States are n the edge f extinctin
D. Miyak fund the special feature f the gel by chance
29. A drne wrks best in picking up pllen when ______.
A. its bdy is made like a bee’s
B. its GPS wrks mre efficiently
C. sme flwers are cated with the gel
D. hrsehairs with the gel are attached t it
30. Accrding t Eijir Miyak, the drnes ______.
A. are nt yet ready fr practical use
B. may eventually replace bees in the future
C. are much mre efficient than bee pllinatrs
D. can prvide a slutin t ecnmic depressin

Lts f humans cannt resist interpreting dgs' faces in the terms defined by human languages. A puppy licking yur cheek enthusiastically is giving a "kiss". If dgs culd speak like their wners, many humans want t knw, what wuld their dgs have t say?
Int the market fr answers step Christina Hunger, authr f the bk Hw Stella Learned t Talk, and Alexis Devine, the wner f Bunny, a TikTk star with ver 6.3m fllwers. After careful training, bth Stella and Bunny can paw a series f buttns that make a recrded vice speak ne f several dzen prgrammed wrds. Bth Ms. Devine and Ms. Hunger claim that their dgs are using language.
Human linguists tend t be skeptical f "talking" animals. T understand why, cnsider Nam Chmsky's critical review f "Verbal Behaviur" by B.F. Skinner, a pineer in behaviral psychlgy. Skinner described human language acquisitin as he did ther learned behaviurs: the strengthening f a respnse after cnditining with a stimulus. If saying "fd" gets yu fd, yu' re mre likely t say it.
Skinner wrte that "if we are shwn a prized wrk f art and shut ‘Beautiful!', the speed and energy f the respnse will have an effect n the wner." Mr. Chmsky nted that this reasning might lead peple "t cry ut 'Beautiful' in a lud vice, repeatedly and with n delay". Real humans, by cntrast, might in fact shw appreciatin thrugh a lng mment f silence, and then barely whispered praise.
Ms. Hunger came up with her buttn system after wrking with children wh were nt develping language nrmally und has helped many yungsters express themselves better(ften with tablet cmputers). But sme dg experts dislike the practice f frcing wrd-based cmmunicatin nt dgs. By fcusing n a basic kind f language that seems human, it ignres dgs' abilities t express themselves in their wn ways.
Dgs are fnd f sniffing each ther, wh are using sensitive nses t exchange infrmatin, abut age, health and ther things. Dgs urinate frequently nt, as nce assumed, primarily t claim territry, but t leave similar infrmatin fr thers.
Psture, t, cnveys masses f infrmatin between dgs; eyes, ears and teeth cntribute t a range f messages transmitted between them. Finally, their wn vcalizatins, thugh hardly f the wrds-and-syntax type that make up human language, are cmplicated.
Scientists have yet t reprt n the "talking" abilities f dgs like Stella and Bunny. In the meantime, rdinary wners can have a g at training their dgs with the advice Ms. Hunger ffers. Or they can try anther apprach: buy ne f the many gd bks n understanding hw dgs naturally cmmunicate, and spend the time they might invest in prgramming buttns n getting t knw their pets instead. Even the best-trained dg is a pr cnversatinalist in human terms — but a brilliant ne n their wn.
31.Why des the authr mentin Stella and Bunny?
A. T present an attempt.B. T put frward a thery.
C. T settle an argument.D. T prve an assumptin.
32. What can we learn frm the passage?
A. Chmsky further develped behaviral psychlgy.
B. Devine's and Hunger's practices agree with Skinner's thery.
C. Language is acquired by strengthening a cnditined respnse.
D. Hunger's buttn system helps children t express themselves better.
33. Accrding t the authr, thse wh try t prve dgs' language ability________.
A. ignre dgs' psychlgical needsB. suggest a new way t get t knw dgs
C. fail t acknwledge what makes a dg a dgD. believe dgs have their wn language system
34. What message des the authr cnvey t dg wners?
A. A dg deserves mre care and cmpany.
B. Training can help a dg learn human language.
C. Imprving their understanding f pets is crucial.
D. Research n animal behavir still has a lng way t g.

Frm the cheeky sund f a whpee cushin t a spring-laded spider rcketing frm a glass, pranks (惡作劇) are a ppular way f making fun f thers and getting a laugh. While sme experts pint ut ptential negatives, pranking can als decrease stress, raise a smile, and strengthen relatinships.
It’s little wnder that best-selling children’s authr Matt Stantn has shaped his latest bk arund pranks fr yung jkesters. Part f his Funny Kid bk series, Prank Aliens, is abut a by named Max wh is searching fr the greatest prank f all time. Stantn said that pranking in the hme can build strng relatinships between parents and kids.
“Sme f the best relatinship-building mments I have with my wn kids are when I enter int their space,” Stantn said. “An adult jining in their games can be surprising fr kids and bring wnderful mments f jy. It’s a great way t demnstrate t ur kids that we can laugh at urselves and still feel lved and secure,” he added.
But playing tricks can cme with unintended cnsequences, said psychiatrist Mark Crss. Pranks that are intended t harm r embarrass can anger the target and even ruin a relatinship. Hwever, Crss als added “Pranking can be gd when the utcme is laughter fr everyne, including the pranked persn. It can be a great release f stress. When yu laugh, yu breathe deeper, which helps ease anxiety.”
S why nt try sme pranks? Wrapping vegetables and shes up as presents fr kids n their birthdays always gets a great reactin. Putting plastic spiders in guests’ drinks r placing a whpee cushin n an unsuspecting persn’s chair is sure t cause a belly laugh. All these might just be gd fr yu and everyne invlved.
40. What are the benefits f pranking?
41. When can pranks anger the target r even ruin a relatinship?
42. Please decide which part is false in the fllwing statement, then underline it and explain why.
Pranking is gd when everyne laughs at the pranked persn, since laughter releases stress.
43. In additin t pranking, what ther ways can yu use t strengthen relatinships with family members? (In abut 40 wrds)

考查時態(tài)語態(tài)。句意:衡量成功的標(biāo)準(zhǔn)不是你有多少錢,而是你如何理解生命的真正意義。主語和動詞measure是被動關(guān)系,且陳述客觀事實,應(yīng)用一般現(xiàn)在時的被動語態(tài),主語是不可數(shù)名詞,謂語用單數(shù)。故填is measured。

【15題詳解】

【17題詳解】
考查定語從句。句意:我們用無形的貨幣來支付,比如我們的時間和隱私,這些東西人們現(xiàn)在才開始了解。非限制定語從句修飾先行詞time and privacy,在從句中作賓語,指物,應(yīng)使用關(guān)系代詞which引導(dǎo)。故填which。

【19題詳解】
考查冠詞。句意:為了更環(huán)保,養(yǎng)成隨身攜帶可重復(fù)使用的水瓶的習(xí)慣,這樣你就可以在旅途中喝水了。此處habit為泛指,且是發(fā)音以輔音音素開頭的單詞。故填a。

【答案】21. B 22. D 23. C

【22題詳解】
推理判斷題。根據(jù)文章大意以及第一段“Vancuver Parks and Recreatin maintains fur cvered picnic shelters that are available fr reservatin at the fllwing parks:(溫哥華公園和娛樂中心有四個帶頂?shù)囊安捅幼o所,可在以下公園預(yù)訂)”和下文具體介紹的預(yù)定信息,包括預(yù)定費用,取消預(yù)定政策、和常見問題等。由此推知,文章的主要目的是提供庇護所預(yù)訂信息。故選D項。
【23題詳解】
推理判斷題。根據(jù)文章大意以及結(jié)合文章題目“Picnic Shelter Reservatins(野餐庇護所預(yù)訂)”可知,本文主要介紹的是如何預(yù)定野餐庇護所,通常在旅行或出門游玩時人們會進(jìn)行野餐。由此推知,這篇文章與旅行和閑暇活動有關(guān),最有可能出自一本旅行手冊。故選C項。
【答案】24. D 25. C 26. A
【導(dǎo)語】這是一篇記敘文。文章主要講述了作者為了減肥而節(jié)食,甚至不惜和教練爭吵。后來得到教練的提醒,通過運動來減少體重,她十分感謝自己的教練,并且收獲了一段友誼。
【24題詳解】
細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段“She talked with me abut my eating and was angry that I wuldn’t listen t her when she tried t make me eat. She tried t persuade me in a determined way and s we fught cnstantly.(她和我談?wù)撐业娘嬍?,?dāng)她試圖讓我吃東西時,我不聽她的話,她很生氣。她試圖用堅定的方式說服我,所以我們經(jīng)常吵架)”可知,作者與史密斯教練爭吵,是因為她堅持減肥的想法。故選D。
【25題詳解】
細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第三段“I realized then that I had ruined my senir year by being disrespectful, and I had prbably ruined hers as well. S that evening I wrte her a letter aplgizing and thanking her.(那時我意識到,我的無禮毀了我的高三,可能也毀了她的高三。所以那天晚上我給她寫了一封信,向她道歉并感謝她)”可知,作者寫信是因為她感謝史密斯對她健康的照顧。故選C。
【26題詳解】
主旨大意題。根據(jù)最后一段“I will frever be grateful fr her help, and nw fr her friendship.(我將永遠(yuǎn)感激她的幫助,現(xiàn)在又感謝她的友誼)”結(jié)合文章主要講述了作者堅持自己的節(jié)食減肥方法,后來得到教練的提醒,通過運動來減少體重,她十分感謝自己的教練,并且收獲了一段友誼。故A選項“意外的友誼”最符合文章標(biāo)題。故選A。
【答案】27. B 28. D 29. D 30. A
【分析】這是一篇說明文。文章主要說明了蜜蜂數(shù)量的減少令人擔(dān)憂,因為這可能破壞生態(tài)系統(tǒng),也可能破壞農(nóng)業(yè)和經(jīng)濟。人們一直在試圖想出替代技術(shù),科學(xué)家們通過在馬毛的下腹部貼上一層特殊的粘性凝膠,成功地將一種不起眼的雄蜂變成了一種遙控傳粉器。
【27題詳解】
詞義猜測題。根據(jù)第三段中“When it was rediscvered a decade later, it hadn’t dried up r degraded at all.”可知,十年后被重新發(fā)現(xiàn)時,凝膠根本沒有干枯或退化。因此Miyak驚訝的是它仍然具有很高的粘性。結(jié)合選項,故選B。
【28題詳解】
細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第三段中“ His particular cntributin t the field invlves a gel, ne he’d cnsidered a mistake 10 years befre and stuck in a strage cabinet. When it was rediscvered a decade later, it hadn’t dried up r degraded at all.”可知,Miyak是偶然間發(fā)現(xiàn)凝膠這種特殊特性的。結(jié)合選項,故選D。
【29題詳解】
細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)倒數(shù)第二段中“The scientists lked at the hairs under a scanning electrn micrscpe and cunted up the pllen grains attached t the surface and fund that the drnes whse hrsehairs had been cated with the gel had abut 10 times mre pllen than thse that had nt been cated with the gel.”可知,科學(xué)家們在掃描電子顯微鏡下觀察了這些毛發(fā),并對附著在表面的花粉粒進(jìn)行了計數(shù),發(fā)現(xiàn)那些馬毛上涂有凝膠的雄蜂的花粉量大約是沒有涂有凝膠的雄蜂的10倍。結(jié)合選項,故選D。
【30題詳解】
推理判斷題。根據(jù)文章最后一段中“ There’s a lt f wrk t be dne befre that's a reality, ”可知,在投入使用之前,還有很多工作需要做。故可知,這種無人機還未投入使用。結(jié)合選項,故選A。
【答案】31. A 32. B 33. C 34. C
【分析】這是一篇說明文。很多人無法抗拒用人類語言定義的術(shù)語來解讀狗的面部表情,于是兩只狗的主人嘗試通過訓(xùn)練自己的狗Stella和Bunny來訓(xùn)練狗說話,作者對此并不認(rèn)同,說明了狗進(jìn)行交流的一些方式以及對狗主人的建議。
【31題詳解】
推理判斷題。根據(jù)第一段中“If dgs culd speak like their wners, many humans want t knw, what wuld their dgs have t say?(如果狗能像主人一樣說話,許多人想知道,他們的狗會說什么?)”以及第二段中“Int the market fr answers step Christina Hunger, authr f the bk Hw Stella Learned t Talk, and Alexis Devine, the wner f Bunny, a TikTk star with ver 6.3m fllwers.(《斯特拉如何學(xué)會說話》一書的作者Christina Hunger和TikTk明星、擁有超過630萬粉絲的Bunny的主人Alexis Devine進(jìn)入這一領(lǐng)域?qū)で蟠鸢?”可推知,作者提到Stella和Bunny是為了說明一次關(guān)于了解狗的語言的嘗試。故選A。
【32題詳解】
細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段中“After careful training, bth Stella and Bunny can paw a series f buttns that make a recrded vice speak ne f several dzen prgrammed wrds. Bth Ms. Devine and Ms. Hunger claim that their dgs are using language.(經(jīng)過精心訓(xùn)練,Stella和Bunny都可以用爪子抓住一系列按鈕,讓錄制好的聲音說出幾十個編程單詞中的一個。Devine和Hunger小姐都聲稱,他們的狗在使用語言)”以及第三段中“Skinner described human language acquisitin as he did ther learned behaviurs: the strengthening f a respnse after cnditining with a stimulus. If saying "fd" gets yu fd, yu' re mre likely t say it. (Skinner將人類語言習(xí)得描述為他所做的其他習(xí)得行為:在刺激條件反射后,強化反應(yīng)。如果說“fd”讓你得到食物,你更有可能說出來)”可知,Devine和Hunger的實踐與Skinner的理論一致。故選B。
【33題詳解】
推理判斷題。根據(jù)第五段中“But sme dg experts dislike the practice f frcing wrd-based cmmunicatin nt dgs. By fcusing n a basic kind f language that seems human, it ignres dgs' abilities t express themselves in their wn ways.(但一些狗狗專家不喜歡強迫狗狗進(jìn)行基于語言的交流。通過關(guān)注一種似乎是人類的基本語言,它忽略了狗狗以自己的方式表達(dá)自己的能力)”可推知,作者認(rèn)為,試圖證明狗的語言能力的人沒有認(rèn)識到狗之所以是狗的原因。故選C。
【34題詳解】
推理判斷題。根據(jù)最后一段中“Or they can try anther apprach: buy ne f the many gd bks n understanding hw dgs naturally cmmunicate, and spend the time they might invest in prgramming buttns n getting t knw their pets instead. Even the best-trained dg is a pr cnversatinalist in human terms — but a brilliant ne n their wn. (或者,他們可以嘗試另一種方法:買一本關(guān)于了解狗狗如何自然交流的好書,然后把時間花在編程按鈕上,讓他們了解自己的寵物。即使是最訓(xùn)練有素的狗,用人類的語言來說,也不善于交談——但它們自己卻很聰明)”可推知,作者向狗主人傳達(dá)的信息是提高他們對寵物的理解是至關(guān)重要的。故選C。
第二節(jié)(共5小題;每小題2分,共10分)
【答案】35. C 36. G 37. E 38. F 39. B
【分析】這是一篇說明文。文章用幾個實驗向我們證明了商店里商品的擺放位置,特別是結(jié)賬處附近的商品擺放會影響我們購物的選擇。所以健康部門和專家都呼吁將健康食品放在這些地方,提高大家對健康食品的關(guān)注度。
【35題詳解】
空格位于首段最后一句。空格前一句句意為:店內(nèi)商品的擺放位置也會影響購物的選擇。選項C中的it與上句話中的“The lcatin”可形成指代關(guān)系,并且“make r break sme healthy eating habits”與文章主題(Healthy See, Healthy D看到的健康的,買的就是健康的)呼應(yīng)。故選C。
【36題詳解】
空格位于段中??崭袂熬湟鉃椋航Y(jié)賬處擺放的商品經(jīng)常是糖或者咸的零食。空格后的兩個舉例都是強調(diào)如果購物者看到的經(jīng)常是健康食品的話,他們會更多的選擇健康食品。由此可推知,空格處應(yīng)該是強調(diào)換一下擺放在結(jié)賬處的食品的重要性。選項G中的“simply swapping in healthier ptins can change custmer behavir(簡單地將垃圾食品換成健康一點的食品能改變顧客的購物行為)”與這一語境呼應(yīng),起到承上啟下的作用。故選G。
【37題詳解】
空格位于段首。由本段中的“a research scientist at the department”可知,前邊應(yīng)該出現(xiàn)過department,選項E中的“Department f Health”與之呼應(yīng)。故選E。
【38題詳解】
空格位于段中。分析文章結(jié)構(gòu),第四段和第五段主要講述Adjian和她同事們做的試驗??崭袂熬湟鉃椋簽榱俗C明把健康食品放在收銀處,是不是影響擁擠的市區(qū)內(nèi)的顧客的購買行為,他們選擇了三家超市??崭窈缶湟鉃椋核麄冞B續(xù)三周每天分六次每次三小時記錄購買情況??梢酝浦?,中間一句話應(yīng)該是實驗的設(shè)置方式。選項F中的“They replaced candies and ckies with fruits and nuts near the checkut cunter(他們把收銀處附近的糖和餅干換成了水果和堅果)”與這個試驗的目的一致。故選F。
【39題詳解】
空格位于段中。這一段講述Adjian和她同事們做的試驗的結(jié)果。由空格后的these findings可知,前邊至少有兩項發(fā)現(xiàn)。空格前句意為:在那些在收銀處買了東西的人當(dāng)中,站在健康食品隊列的人比站在不健康食品隊列的人買了多于兩倍的東西。這是一個發(fā)現(xiàn),選項B中的“They bught unhealthy fds 40 percent less ften.(他們買不健康食品的概率也降低了40%。)”與上一句句式接近,并且表達(dá)的是與上一句意思一致的一個發(fā)現(xiàn),又與下句中的“these findings”呼應(yīng)。故選B。
【點睛】七選五題目主要考查學(xué)生綜合的英語邏輯思維能力。一篇好的短文,不僅在內(nèi)容上要前后一致,而且還要語篇結(jié)構(gòu)清晰,上下文邏輯意義嚴(yán)謹(jǐn)。內(nèi)容的前后一致體現(xiàn)在段內(nèi)及語篇內(nèi)話題的自然過渡。語篇結(jié)構(gòu)主要體現(xiàn)為:文章是總分結(jié)構(gòu),還是按時間或空間順序發(fā)展的,還是辯證三段論的編排的。邏輯意義的嚴(yán)謹(jǐn)最主要的可以通過代詞、連詞和副詞等形式來體現(xiàn)。例如本文中的第一題、第四題要分別借助于篇章結(jié)構(gòu)和段落結(jié)構(gòu)解題。第二題依據(jù)段落內(nèi)空格前后語義之間的關(guān)系解題,第三題和第五題依據(jù)詞匯呼應(yīng)解題。這篇七選五是比較難的題目,大家要著重分析文章和段落的結(jié)構(gòu)。具體解題過程看詳解。
第三部分 書面表達(dá)(共兩節(jié),32分)
第一節(jié)(共4小題;第40、41題各2分,第42題3分,第43題5分,共12分)
【答案】40. Decreasing stress, raising a smile, and strengthening relatinships.
41. When they are intended t harm r embarrass.
42. Pranking is gd when everyne laughs at the pranked persn, since laughter releases stress.

【分析】這是一篇說明文。文章主要說明了雖然惡作劇有潛在的負(fù)面影響,但是惡作劇也可以減輕壓力、帶來微笑和增強人際關(guān)系。
【40題詳解】
考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。根據(jù)第一段“While sme experts pint ut ptential negatives, pranking can als decrease stress, raise a smile, and strengthen relatinships.(雖然一些專家指出了潛在的負(fù)面影響,但惡作劇也可以減輕壓力,帶來微笑,加強人際關(guān)系)”可知,惡作劇可以減輕壓力,帶來微笑,加強人際關(guān)系。故答案為Decreasing stress, raising a smile, and strengthening relatinships.
【41題詳解】
考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。根據(jù)第四段“Pranks that are intended t harm r embarrass can anger the target and even ruin a relatinship.(故意傷害或使對方尷尬的惡作劇會激怒對方,甚至毀掉一段感情)”可知,故意傷害別人或者使人尷尬的惡作劇會激怒對方甚至毀掉一段關(guān)系。故答案為When they are intended t harm r embarrass.
【42題詳解】
考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。根據(jù)第四段“Pranking can be gd when the utcme is laughter fr everyne, including the pranked persn. It can be a great release f stress. When yu laugh, yu breathe deeper, which helps ease anxiety.(當(dāng)結(jié)果是包括被惡作劇的人在內(nèi)的所有人都會大笑時,惡作劇就是好的。它可以極大地釋放壓力。當(dāng)你笑的時候,你會呼吸更深,這有助于緩解焦慮)”可知,當(dāng)結(jié)果是包括被惡作劇的人在內(nèi)的所有人都會大笑時,惡作劇是好的,因為笑可以緩解焦慮,所以句子中“when everyne laughs at the pranked persn(當(dāng)每個人都嘲笑惡作劇的人時)”是錯誤的。故答案為Pranking is gd when everyne laughs at the pranked persn, since laughter releases stress. Pranking is gd when the utcme is laughter fr everyne, including the pranked persn, since laughter releases stress.
【43題詳解】
開放性題目。我可以通過每天給家人打電話來保持聯(lián)系。此外,在休閑假期與家人一起旅行可以讓我有機會與他們交流。最后,我可以在特殊的場合和家人一起慶祝,這將是令人難忘的。故答案為I can keep in tuch with my family by calling them every day. Besides, travelling with my family during the leisure hlidays can give me the pprtunity t cmmunicate with them. Finally, I can celebrate with my family n special ccasins, which will be unfrgettable.
