Although he always thought his childhood to be “normal”, there were quite a few things that made him a little different. He couldn

He never wanted to draw attention to his medical condition. Even many of his close friends and coworkers were unaware of his

Despite several times of unconsciousness, and 19 days stay in ICU, he managed to celebrate Christmas with us and even work as

23、. But it also presents a danger to the world in two significant ways. First, the making of paper requires the loss of millions of trees each year. Between 2001 and 2019, the world lost 386 million hectares of forest. Of the trees that were cut down, 42% went to paper production. And worldwide use of
24、 paper is expected to double in the next 40 years. Clearly, the planet cannot sustain such a high rate of forest loss. The second great problem with paper is what happens once it is no longer useful. A huge quantity of wastepaper ends up in dumps and landfills (垃圾填埋场), where it can produce harmful g
25、ases. Paper in landfills leads to the release (释放) of methane, a gas that is a significant contributor in global warming. One simple solution can greatly reduce both of these problems: paper recycling. Paper is mainly made from cellulose (纤维素), which makes up the cell walls of trees and many other p
26、lants. Because of its structure, cellulose can be used repeatedly in papermaking. So far, trees are the only source of cellulose that can fill the massive demand for paper products. Therefore, recycling paper is simply one of the best ways to save trees. Thanks to advances in processing, recycled pa
27、per isnt the dullcolored stuff many of us are familiar with any more. It now can offer the same print performance as nonrecycled paper. Effective recycling requires a consistent effort. The way to begin is with education and understanding. Once enough people realize the need for recycling, more effe
28、ctive recycling systems can be carried out. The massive loss of trees affects everybody on earth. Everyone should do their part to recycle paper and encourage government and industries to do the same.28What does the author want to express in Paragraph 1?AConsequences resulting from forest loss.BThe
29、significance of paper in daily life.CThe disadvantages of current paper production.DThe severe situation caused by papermaking.29Why is paper in landfills harmful?AIt releases smelly gases.

31、global warming.CTo appeal to people to recycle paper.DTo describe the considerable need for paper.DHave you ever walked into a room and completely forgotten why you came into it in the first place? I couldnt agree more when I read an article from LiveScience that stated, “There are several types of
32、memories, and the brain has a unique way of forgetting each kind.” Memory does some funny things. While forgetting is a normal and vital part of our brain function, we have to admit that memory can be a mysterious and naughty joker. One of the most common mysteries is a shortterm memory failure wher
33、e people find themselves entering a room with no memory of why they did so.Everyone has experienced this at least once in their lives. We call it a “senior moment”, but researchers say its actually okay to put the blame on our doorways and not on our ageing brains. The act of walking through a doorw
34、ay sends a signal to our brains that a new scene has started and that previous memories should be put away. This is what causes our memory failure and confusion. The thoughts we had before we entered that new scene have actually been sectionalized (分区). In an interview with LiveScience Gabriel Radva
35、nsky, a psychologist at the University of Norte Dame said, “Entering or exiting through a doorway serves as an event boundary in the mind.”I find this amazing, as I watch it happen to people all around me every day. I guess I should stop telling them theyre getting old and actually explain the cause
36、. For me its not doorways that cause a problem. Its flights of stairs. Every so often I find myself going up the stairs and forgetting why I did so just as soon as Ive reached the landing. Whats up with that? Now if I can only find out what that means, Id be truly fascinated.32What contributes to ou
37、r “senior moment” according to the researchers?AAgeing brains. BDoorways.CDifferent moments. DThe same scenes.33Which of the following is Radvansky likely to agree with?AWalking through a doorway makes us nervous in the mind.BSectionalized thoughts disappear when we enter a new scene.CToo many event
38、s in life are harmful to our brain memory.DExiting through doorways causes short memory failures.34What may confuse the author?AWhether he should explain the cause to others.BHow much he was fascinated by science.CHow many people suffer from doorway problems.DWhy going up the stairs makes him forget

41、e yourself to light.

It was stuck on its back with its limbs in the air.Gen put gloves on and carefully freed the cub from the fence, but
57、it was clear that it was shocked and injured. When she put it down, it couldnt even move.

85、折。C项“对一些人来说,早起是自然而然的事情。”和下文内容形成对比,同时又承接上文的内容,符合语境。37答案与解析:D上文讲“让你的身体感觉清醒的最有力的方法是把自己暴露在光线下。当你暴露在明亮的阳光下时,你的激素告诉你的身体,嘿,该醒了”。下文讲“这些灯光会向你的身体发出信号,告诉你现在仍然是白天”。言外之意就是说现在实际上不是白天,根据语境可以推断出,D项“所以在晚上,不要让你的眼睛暴露在强光下”符合语境。38答案与解析:F通读第三段可知,本段主要讲早起可能会造成睡眠不足。睡眠不足就需要补觉,而白天的小憩就可以补觉,但是如果小憩时机不对,反而会造成晚上入睡困难。空处下文“睡眠医生称之为睡眠
86、债,就像信用卡债务一样”,所以该处应该是介绍被称之为睡眠债的是什么,因此F项“早起通常意味着我们醒来时睡眠不足”符合语境。39答案与解析:G上文“睡眠研究表明,即使小睡10分钟也会起作用”。下文“如果我们小憩得太晚,太接近就寝时间的话,我们晚上就很难入睡了”。根据语境可以推断出,空处应该是讲什么时间进行小憩比较合理。因此G项“尽量在中午或下午早些时候小憩不超过一小时”符合语境。40答案与解析:A该处是本段主题句,通读第四段可知,本段主要讲要对自己进行适当的奖励,从而带动自己早起。所以A项“奖励自己”符合语境。第三部分第一节【语篇解读】本文是一篇记叙文。作者讲述了自己教过的一个聋哑女孩的故事。女

91、ign language“手势语”;oral English“英语口语”;science knowledge“科学知识”。52答案与解析:C根据下文“where they handed her a pen and notebook”以及“the office staff”可推知,他们把Katherine带到了办公室。此处是原词复现。53答案与解析:B根据“they handed her a pen and notebook”可知,这时Katherine有了笔和本,所以她写了“PAC BAK”。wrote意为“写”,符合句意。54答案与解析:C根据上下文可知,办公室的人看到Katherine所写
