When you see a slim tower topping out at 14 feet 6 inches (4.4 m) and made up of 208 decks of cards,you may exclaim it's so incredible!
The tower's architect,Bryan Berg,is an expert card builder,holding the world's record for the tallest structure built entirely of paper cards.He's built houses,stadiums,capitols,and castles.There's no glue,tape or clips (别针).How can he make them stand firm?He begins by balancing four cards to form a box with arms sticking out,which forms a grid (网格).Then he repeats the grid over and over,expanding outward,to build a solid base.After that,Bryan lays cards around the edge and then across the top to make the floor for the next story of the building. Interestingly enough,Bryan did not get the idea from any of the physical
books.Instead,he discovered the unique way to build solid structures using a trick from nature.The secret is plant cells.Plant cells have hard walls and fit together tightly to form a grid that helps leaves and stems to keep their shape.Bees use the same kind of pattern to create honeycombs.Bryan borrowed this idea to invent repeating grids of card cells.
Out of curiosity,people who come to see the card buildings sometimes push and poke (戳刺) to see if they have clips inside,but find they don't!Once,when Bryan built a card castle at Disney World,birds kept trying to land on it.A squirrel managed to take down one wall and did plenty of damage inside.But,amazingly,the castle didn't collapse.
When it's time to take down a card house,Bryan likes to blow them apart with a leaf blower.Is he ever sad to do itBryan admits it's sometimes painful to see his structures fall.But he always knows one thing: \"What goes up must come down — even card houses.They wouldn't be so special if they were permanent.I also learn a

lot from taking them apart — the destruction shows me where the weak points are.That is what my next stronger buildings really need.\"
4. What makes Bryan's card buildings stand firm ______ A. Fixed clips.
C. Light-weight cards.
B. Repeating grids.D. Multiple stories.
5. What is the third paragraph mainly about? ______ A. The source of Bryan's inspiration.B. Bryan's specific building process.
C. Bryan's comprehensive knowledge of biology.D. The similarity between plant cells and honeycombs.
6. Why is the Disney card castle mentioned in paragraph 4? ______ A. To arouse people's interest in visiting.B. To prove the strength of Bryan's card works.C. To indicate Bryan's popularity among children.D. To show the harmony between man and nature.
7. What life philosophy does Bryan convey in the last paragraph? ______ A. Pride comes before a fall.
B. It's unrealistic to achieve perfection.
C. One can better himself by going beyond himself.D. Nothing is difficult for one who sets his mind to it.

Singers seem to have an inborn talent for foreign tongues—most notably when it comes to pronunciation and accent.It's something that the American singer Taylor Swift does a good job of making her French sound realistic in front of fans during her tours. \"A foreign accent is a piece of cake for the singers.\" says Susanne Reiterer,a nurolinguistics researcher at Vienna University.
In a study by Reiterer,published in New Scientist in 2015,96 participants categorized as singers,instrumentalists,and non-musicians were tested for their abilities to imitate a language unknown to them—in this case,Hindi(印地
语).Reiterer's team found that singers had an advantage over instrumentalists in foreign language imitation,but both singers and instrumentalists outperformed non-musicians.
\"Since talking uses the same biological makeup as singing,the two must be related both biologically and neurobiologically.It's Heschl's gyrus(颞横回) that works.You
第3页,共22页
can change a lot by training,but something is pre-given as well, \"Reiterer adds.\" Biology plays a leading role.If you have a strong predisposition musically,then you have more power basically in your hearing areas.You can discriminate sounds better.\"
Reiterer has also investigated how a person's initial language ability develops due to factors such as musical ability,vocal training and children experience,to name a few,as reported in a 2021 study.It's suggested that vocal training may allow singers to learn a language faster.What's more,when children experience music early,they're able to achieve lifelong neuroplasticity(神经可塑性).Speech-sound processing ability builds up in one's whole life.
\"It's the body that feels where I have to move my tongue,\" Reiterer says. \"And this feeling has a correlation in the brain.That is the key to good pronunciation and the key to a good singer.\"
8. What does the author want to tell us about Taylor Swift in paragraph 1?
______
A. Her achievement in singing.B. Her dedication to music career.C. Her ability to imitate languages.D. Her preference for foreign songs.
9. What does the underlined word \"predisposition\" in paragraph 3 refer to
______
A. Interest.B. Condition.C. Training.D. Knowledge.
10. What did Reiterer intend to find in her study? ______ A. What determines accent imitation.B. When children begin to learn music.C. How musicians benefit from training.D. Why singers have advantages over others.
11. Which of the following is the most suitable title for the text? ______ A. The influence of brain on musicB. The key to successful accent learningC. A good singer,a potential language masterD. One's performance:50/50 talent and training

As thrift was introduced into mainstream pop culture,young people started going to thrift stores for cheaper,fashionable finds.Gen Z consumers state that
sustainability is an important factor while making buying decisions.Many choose to shop for a second-hand or resale item of eco-friendly products.Thrift shopping may have once been on the to-do list of people in poverty.But now a rise in eco-conscious thinking has caused young people to pop to thrift stores.
However,scientists recently have come to realize such trendy sustainable practices could actually be less rosy than expected.
Actually,the root of this sustainability dilemma is not only assessing what you use in your life,but the overconsumption. \"Buying piles of second- hand clothing doesn't help to build a sustainable future or challenge our addiction to shopping whenever we want them,\" says Anna Fitzpatrick,a project coordinator at the Sustainable Fashion's Centre.In some cases,the very existence of second-hand stores can give us a false sense of guiltlessness.Fitzpatrick adds, \"we can clear out our entire wardrobe by leaving what we don't want at a second-hand store with the hope that it'll be put into good use.Instead of buying less,we trick ourselves into thinking we can shop our way out of the problem by donating again and again.\" While shopping second-hand may seem like fun,or even an adventurous activity for fashion lovers,it's absolutely essential for people of limited budget.With thrifting reaching new levels of popularity,a great many people are noticing a rise in prices at their local thrift stores.This can influence those who rely on the used market for everyday wear.
\"Actually,they aren't shopping in second-hand shops to be sustainable or
cool—they're doing it out of necessity,\" says Fitzpatrick.So,when you walk into a thrift shop or really any store,it's important to ask yourself whether it is
necessary.While buying second-hand used to be economical and sustainable,it's now about consumption and staying on trend.Just remember,when it comes to your wardrobe,less is more helpful for society and the planet.
12. Who has become the mainstream thrift store shoppers recently? ______ A. Fashion followers.C. Young environmentalists.A. It is a virtue of thrift.B. It is sustainable action.
B. Lower-income individuals.D. Green initiative scientists.
13. What view do scientists hold towards thrift shopping? ______
第5页,共22页
C. It challenges addiction to shopping.D. It comes with worrying effects potentially.
14. Why do second-hand stores make us feel guiltless according to Fitzpatrick?
______
A. They can cut down our living expenses.B. They give us good excuses for the waste.C. They are responsible for the environment.D. They provide affordable items for the poor.
15. Which is suggested about thrift shopping according to the text? ______ A. Restrict the desire of over consumption.B. Feel free to purchase the things you like.C. Make contributions to society by donating.D. Keep away from cheap and fashionable finds.
Museums become the next stop many students want to visit at their leisure.(1) ______ However,the experience of visiting a museum could be quite disappointing if not done right,even for the experienced museumgoers.
( 2) ______ .No matter how much you're enjoying yourself,many museums can take hours,days,or even weeks to fully explore.If you try to put it all in,you will get worn out to the point that you won't really be seeing anything.Pick a few paintings and explore them in a detailed way,and your museum experience will be more relaxing.
Have you ever started your visit by waiting in line in front of the museum for a few hours just to get in?And that's the sad reality when visiting many of those world-famous museums.Thus,be smart to browse the instructions for visiting and book in advance online.(3) ______ .
What if you don't like some museums?Then don't visit them!I'm not a massive fan of parks,so I would hardly ever end up in any park while travelling.(4) ______ Do they have a nice collection of an art style you love?Just ask yourself and visit the museum website to see what the highlights are.

Adler lived with his unemployed mother and a younger brother in a small house in Durango.Like other boys at his age,the small,golden-haired boy wanted to play with his friends and have fun,but fate had other plans.After observing what was happening in his house,the boy decided to do something for his family.He picked up his only toy,a ball,and left his house with a mission—to help his family.
Little Adler walked to the nearest store with his last toy in hand,hoping he could sell it.His innocent mind could only come up with this idea to help his mother,unaware that no one would buy the ball from him.While the little boy was selling his toy at the street,a man with the TikTok name Ruben Cervantes spotted him.Curious,he approached Adler to see what happened to that little boy.
With tears in his eyes,the little one said, \"I just want to sell my only toy,sir.Would you like it?\" When Cervantes learned Adler was selling his toy to help his family,he asked, \"How much is it?\" Adler replied, \"I don't want money,sir.just want milk and bread for my family.\"
At that moment,Cervantes was so moved how this little mind could possess such mature concepts.While other children at his age were enjoying and living a carefree life,Adler was worrying about his home's financial situation.Without hesitation,Cervantes took the ball from the boy,gave him a hug and said, \"Don't cry,my boy.I' keep your ball for now,hoping to play it with you one day.\"
Cervantes did buy milk and bread in exchange for his ball and sent him back home.The boy flashed a toothy smile and said, \"Thank you so much,sir.I'm looking forward.\" 注意:

4~7.【答案】B、A、B、C
第11页,共22页
【解析】(1)细节理解题。根据第二段中How can he make them stand firm?He begins by balancing four cards to form a box with arms sticking out,which forms a grid.Then he repeats the grid over and over,expanding outward,to build a solid base.After that,Bryan lays cards around the edge and then across the top to make the floor for the next story of the building.(他怎能使他们站立得住呢?他首先平衡四张卡片,形成一个盒子,手臂伸出来,形成一个网格。然后他一遍又一遍地重复网格,向外扩展,以建立一个坚实的基础。之后,布莱恩把卡片铺在边缘,然后铺在顶部,为建筑的下一层铺好地板)可知,重复的网格是让布莱恩的纸牌建筑屹立不倒的基础。故选B项。
(2)段落大意题。根据第三段中Interestingly enough,Bryan did not get the idea from any of the physical books.Instead,he discovered the unique way to build solid structures using a trick from nature.The secret is plant cells.Plant cells have hard walls and fit together tightly to form a grid that helps leaves and stems to keep their shape.Bees use the same kind of pattern to create honeycombs.Bryan borrowed this idea to invent repeating grids of card cells.(有趣的是,布莱恩并没有从任何一本实体书中得到这个想法。相反,他发现了利用大自然的技巧建造坚固结构的独特方法。秘密在于植物细胞。植物细胞有坚硬的细胞壁,紧密地结合在一起形成网格,帮助叶子和茎保持形状。蜜蜂用同样的模式来建造蜂巢。布莱恩借鉴了这个想法,发明了重复的纸牌单元格)可知,本段主要讲述了布莱恩搭建稳固结构灵感的来源。A.The source of Bryan's inspiration.布莱恩的灵感来源;B.Bryan's specific building process.布莱恩的具体建造过程;
C.Bryan's comprehensive knowledge of biology.布莱恩全面的生物学知识;
D.The similarity between plant cells and honeycombs.植物细胞和蜂巢的相似性。故选A项。
(3)推理判断题。根据第四段中Out of curiosity,people who come to see the card buildings sometimes push and poke to see if they have clips inside,but find they don't!Once,when Bryan built a card castle at Disney World,birds kept trying to land on it.A squirrel managed to take down one wall and did plenty of damage inside.But,amazingly,the castle didn't collapse.(出于好奇,来参观卡牌建筑的人有时会推推搡搡,看看里面是否有夹子,但发现没有!有一次,布莱恩在迪士尼世界搭了一个纸牌城堡,鸟儿们一直想降落在上面。一只松鼠成功地推倒了一面墙,并在里面造成了很大的破坏。但令人惊讶的是,城堡并没有倒塌)可推知,本段提到迪士尼纸牌城堡是为了证明布莱恩牌的力量是有效的。故选B项。
(4)推理判断题。根据最后一段中I also learn a lot from taking them apart — the destruction shows me where the weak points are.That is what my next stronger buildings really need.(我也从拆卸它们中学到了很多东西——破坏告诉我弱点在哪里。这是我的下一个更坚固的建筑真正需要的)可知,布莱恩学到了自己不足的地方,然后下次改进。由
第12页,共22页
此推知,布莱恩在最后一段表达的人生哲学是:一个人只有超越自我,才能完善自己。故选C项。本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了建筑师布莱恩•伯格如何搭建稳固的卡片建筑,以及建筑给他的感悟。

8~11.【答案】C、B、A、C
【解析】(1)推理判断题。根据第一段It's something that the American singer Taylor Swift does a good job of making her French sound realistic in front of fans during her tours. \"A foreign accent is a piece of cake for the singers.\" says Susanne Reiterer,a nurolinguistics researcher at Vienna University. (美国歌手泰勒•斯威夫特在巡演期间就擅长在歌迷面前使她的法语听起来逼真。\"外国口音对歌手来说是小菜一碟。\"维也纳大学的神经语言学研究员苏珊娜•韦勒说。)可知,在第一段中,作者想告诉我们泰勒•斯威夫特模仿语言的能力。故选C。
(2)词句猜测题。根据划线词后半句then you have more power basically in your hearing areas. (那么你的听觉区域就会更强大。)可知,如果一个人在音乐方面有很强的倾向,那么其听觉区域就会更强大。所以predisposition为\"倾向;条件\"之意。A.Interest.兴趣;B.Condition.条件;C.Training.训练;D.Knowledge.知识。故选B。
(3)推理判断题。根据第二段Reiterer's team found that singers had an advantage over instrumentalists in foreign language imitation,but both singers and
instrumentalists outperformed non-musicians.(韦勒的研究小组发现,歌手在模仿外语方面比乐器演奏者更有优势,但歌手和乐器演奏者的表现都优于非音乐家。)和第三段\"Since

(4)标题归纳题。根据第一段Singers seem to have an inborn talent for foreign tongues—most notably when it comes to pronunciation and accent. (歌手们似乎有一种天生的外语天赋---尤其是在发音和口音方面。)及全文可知,文章主要介绍了研究发现歌手们a potential language master(好的歌似乎都有一种天生的外语天赋。所以\"A good singer,手,潜在的语言大师)\"作为文章标题最为合适。A.The influence of brain on music大脑对音乐的影响;B.The key to successful accent learning成功学习口音的关键;C.A good singer,a potential language master一个好歌手,一个潜在的语言大师;D.One's performance:50/50 talent and training一个人的表现:50/50的天赋和训练。故选C。
本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了研究发现歌手们似乎都有一种天生的外语天赋。

eco-friendly products.(随着节俭被引入主流流行文化,年轻人开始去旧货店买更便宜、更时尚的东西。Z世代消费者表示,可持续性是他们做出购买决定时的一个重要因素。许多人选择购买二手或转售的环保产品)可知,最近,年轻的环保主义者成为了二手店的主流消费者。故选C。 (2)推理判断题。根据第二段However,scientists recently have come to realize such trendy sustainable practices could actually be less rosy than expected.(然而,科学家们最近意识到,这种流行的可持续做法实际上可能没有预期的那么美好)以及第三段中
Actually,the root of this sustainability dilemma is not only assessing what you use in your life,but the overconsumption.(事实上,这种可持续发展困境的根源不仅在于评估你在生活中使用了什么,还在于过度消费)可知,科学家们认为节俭购物带来了潜在的令人担忧的影响。故选D。
(3)推理判断题。根据第三段中Fitzpatrick adds, \"we can clear out our entire wardrobe by leaving what we don't want at a second-hand store with the hope that it'll be put into good use.Instead of buying less,we trick ourselves into thinking we can shop our way out of the problem by donating again and again.\"(菲茨帕特里克补充说:\"我们可以把不想要的东西留在二手商店,希望它能得到很好的利用,这样就可以清理我们的整个衣柜。我们不会少买东西,而是欺骗自己,认为我们可以通过一次又一次的捐赠来解决问题。\")可知,根据菲茨帕特里克的观点,二手商店会让我们感到无罪是因为它们为我们的浪费找了很好的借口。故选B。
(4)推理判断题。根据最后一段So,when you walk into a thrift shop or really any store,it's important to ask yourself whether it is necessary.While buying
second-hand used to be economical and sustainable,it's now about consumption and staying on trend.Just remember,when it comes to your wardrobe,less is more helpful for society and the planet.(所以,当你走进旧货店或其他任何商店时,问问自己是否有必要这样做是很重要的。过去,购买二手商品既经济又可持续,但现在,这关乎消费和潮流。只要记住,说到你的衣柜,越少对社会和地球越有帮助)可推知,关于节俭购物的建议是过度消费的欲望。A.Restrict the desire of over consumption.过度消费的欲望;B.Feel free to purchase the things you like.随意购买你喜欢的东西;C.Make contributions to society by donating.通过捐赠为社会做贡献;
D.Keep away from cheap and fashionable finds.远离廉价和时尚的发现。故选A。

这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了节俭购物开始流行,许多人选择购买二手或转售的环保产品。但科学家指出了其中存在的问题。
一、速读全文,了解大意知主题。阅读能力一般指阅读速度和理解能力两个方面。阅读速度是阅读最基本的能力,考生必须在十分有限的时间内运用略读、扫读、跳读等技巧快速阅读,搜寻关键词、主题句,捕捉时空、顺序、情节、人物、观点,并且理清文章脉络,把握语篇实质。二、看题干,带着问题读文章。首先要掌握问题的类型,客观信息题可以从文章中直接找到答案;而主观判断题考查的是对文章的感情基调等,这类题必须经过对作者的态度、意图以及对整篇文章进行深一层的推理等。其次,了解试题题干以及各个选项所包含的信息,然后有针对性地对文章进行扫读,对有关信息进行快速定位。此法加强了阅读的针对性,提高了做题的准确率。三、逻辑推理,做好深层理解题。在实际阅读中,有时作者并未把意图说出来,阅读者要根据字面意思,通过语篇逻辑关系,研究细节的暗示,推敲作者的态度,理解文章的寓义。要求读者对文字的表面信息进行分析、挖掘和逻辑推理,不能就事论事,以偏概全。推理题在提问中常用的词有:infer,imply,suggest,indicate等。四、猜词悟义,扫除阅读拦路虎。猜词是应用英语的重要能力。它不但需要准确无误地理解上下文,而且要有较大的泛读量,掌握或认识较多的课外词汇。我们要学会\"顺藤摸瓜\",通过构词,语法,定义,同位,对比,因果,常识,上下文等线索确定词义。
