His mom had encouraged him to enter the writing competition, and now he was taking it on as his personal task for the holidays.As the boy reflected on his previous writing efforts, he rea
47、lized how hopeless his task of winning was. Every story he ever wrote was based on other stories. He had little imagination, and unfortunately, imagination was the key to writing.Suddenly, he had a brainwave. This time, he came up with an original and imaginative story.The words shot towards him lik
48、e a storm of leaves. Words were coming easily, flowing through him, faster than he could type. He typed faster than he ever had before. He continued to type, amazed how easy writing this story was. The boy could not stop writing. He looked at the word count and saw the number “248” staring right bac
49、k at him. He was not even halfway yet.Then he heard his mothers call of saying time for bed. He continued writing the piece, ignoring her.

51、会儿后，他茅塞顿开，快速敲击键盘，可是等到他写好文章准备提交时，页面上却显示“COMPETITION CLOSED”。1What caused the boy to take part in the writing competition?AA new computer.BThe prize money.CHis own interest.DHis moms encouragement.D解析：细节理解题。根据第二段尾句“His mom had encouraged him to enter the writing competition, and now he was taking it o
52、n as his personal task for the holidays.”可知，他的妈妈鼓励他参加写作比赛，现在他把写作作为假期的个人任务；据此可知，他参加写作比赛是他妈妈鼓励的，故D项正确。2How did the boy finish his earlier writing?AHis mom helped him.BHe copied others ideas.CHis friends assisted him.DHe used his imagination.B解析：细节理解题。根据第三段第二句“Every story he ever wrote was based on oth
53、er stories.”可知，他之前写的每一个故事都是以其他故事为基础；据此可知，以前写作时，他总是仿照别人的故事写，故B项正确。3Why did the boy delay his writing?ABecause he was terribly lazy.BBecause he didnt know what to write.CBecause he wasnt confident.DBecause he read too many stories.B解析：细节理解题。根据第一段中的“He thought about what to write.”及第三段的内容“As the boy re
54、flected on his previous writing efforts, he realized how hopeless his task of winning was.He had little imagination, and unfortunately, imagination was the key to writing.”及倒数第五段尾句“He had to.write.”可知，想象力是写作的关键，而他又缺乏想象力；另外，由于他不知道写什么，所以他延误了写作时间，故B项正确。4Which might be the maximum word limit for each en
55、try?A100.B250.C500.D1，000.C解析：推理判断题。根据第七段“Finally, he finished. The word count now read 498”可知，他写了498个词，终于完成了；结合第八段第一句“Perfect， he thought，just under the word limit.”可知，他认为太完美了，刚好低于限定的词数；据此可以判断，文章的最高限定词数可能为500，故C项正确。B(2020南昌重点中学段考)Learning New Vocabulary During Deep SleepSleeping time is sometimes c
56、onsidered unproductive time.This raises the question whether the time spent during sleeping could be used more productively, eg. for learning a new language. Sleep research to date focused on the stabilization and strengthening of memories that had been formed during previous wakefulness. However, l
57、earning during sleep has rarely been examined. There is considerable evidence for wakelearned information undergoing revision by a replay in the sleeping brain. The replay during sleep strengthens the still weak memory traces and embeds(嵌入) the newly acquired information in the preexisting store of
58、knowledge.If the replay during sleep improves the storage of wakelearned information, then firstplay, i. e. the initial processing of new information, should also be possible during sleep.The research group of Katharina Henke examined whether a sleeping person is able to form new semantic associatio
59、ns between played foreign words and translation words during the brain cells active states, the socalled “Upstates”. It turned out to be that what they thought was reasonable. When we reach deep sleep stages, our brain cells progressively coordinate their activity. During deep sleep, the brain cells
60、 are commonly active for a brief period of time before they jointly enter into a state of brief inactivity. The active state is called “Upstate” and the inactive state “Downstate”. The two states alternate(交替) about every halfsecond.New evidence for sleeplearning challenges current theories of sleep
61、 and theories of memory. The concept of sleep as an encapsulated(被概括的) mental state, in which we are separated from the physical environment is no longer reasonable. “We could disprove that complex learning be impossible during deep sleep，” says Simon Ruch, cofirstauthor. “In how far and with what c
62、onsequences deep sleep can be applied to the acquisition of new information will be a topic of research in upcoming years，” says Katharina Henke.The research group of Katharina Henke is part of the Interfaculty Research Cooperation(IRC). Thirteen research groups in medicine, biology, psychology and
63、information science are part of the IRC. The aim of these research groups is to gain a better understanding of the mechanisms involved in sleep, consciousness and cognition.【解题导语】文章通过一项研究论证了在深度睡眠中学习新词汇的可能性。5What can be inferred from Paragraph 3?A“Upstate” and“Downstate” appear in turn during deep sl
64、eep.B“Upstates” is another name for the brain cells active states.CSemantic associations are important for language learning.DThe brain cells active states are central for sleeplearning.D解析：推理判断题。根据第三段前两句“The research group of Katharina Henke examined.the socalled Upstates. It turned out to be that
65、what they thought was reasonable”可知，研究小组研究了睡觉的人能否在脑细胞活跃状态下，在被播放的外来词和翻译词之间形成新的语义联系。结果证明他们的想法是合理的。据此可推知，当大脑处于“Upstates”时，可以进行语言学习。在这个过程中，大脑细胞的活跃状态起着主要作用。故选D项。6What will researchers do within several years according to the passage?AMake study in the following fields such as medicine and biology.BSepara
66、te us from the physical environment.CApply deep sleep to information learning.DDiscover the concept of sleep.C解析：细节理解题。根据题干中的关键词researchers和within several years定位到文章的第四段。根据该段中的“In how far and with what consequences.will be a topic of research in upcoming years”可知，在未来几年，在新信息的获得方面深度睡眠能运用到何种程度以及会有何种结果将
67、是研究的主题。故选C项。7What is the main purpose of the passage?ATo introduce a new way of vocabulary learning.BTo gain a better understanding of the mechanisms.CTo challenge current theories of sleep and theories of memory.DTo explain the possibility of vocabulary learning during deep sleep.D解析：写作意图题。第一段提出问题“
68、This raises the question whether the time spent during sleeping could be used more productively, e. g. for learning a new language.”(是否可以更有效地利用睡眠时间，例如用于学习一种新语言。)；第二段回答该问题“then firstplay, i. e. the initial processing of new information, should also be possible during sleep”(对新信息的初始处理，在睡眠期间也应该是可能的)；第三
69、段通过研究提出证据证明了第二段的猜想。最后两段进行了补充说明。据此可知，本文是为了说明在深度睡眠中，学习新的词汇是可能的。故选D项。8Where is this text most likely from?AA novel.BA guidebook.CA scientific research website.DA diary.C解析：文章出处题。根据第一段中的“Sleep research to date focused on” “There is considerable evidence” 第三段中的“The research group” 最后一段中的“The aim of these
70、 research groups”并结合文章主旨(在深度睡眠中学习新词汇方面的科学研究)可以推断出，本文可能出自一个科研网站，故选C项。.读后续写阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。续写的词数应为150左右。Several years ago, I was living in New York and working for an airline, so I never got back home for Christmas. My Christmas was happy too with some other colleagues around. But
71、 in my heart I was sad because I couldnt stay with my family. Sometimes my colleagues would say our Christmas was filled with tears. But this Christmas was different. I was lucky. I had the whole day off, which meant I could stay with my family on Christmas Eve.When Christmas morning came, I awoke t

With so many Christmas spent outside, I had prepared so many gifts for my children and togeth
75、er with my wife I hid them in several secret places. But the children were excellent detectives and they found all of them. They were happily opening packages constantly thanking considerate Santa Claus for his kindness and ability to know their desires. But I had not received a single one. I knew t
76、hey had forgotten my existence with my absence from their Christmas these years.Paragraph 1：I had to admit that my disappointment was growing steadily._Paragraph 2：Suddenly my wife walked up to me. _One possible version：Paragraph 1：I had to admit that my disappointment was growing steadily. I was wo
77、ndering whether I could get a gift when my younger son ran to me, who was really kind enough to save my face. He asked me to admire his gift which he deeply believed was carefully chosen by Santa Claus. He said happily that he would share some of the gifts of his and allow me to choose one from them
78、. I thanked him from the bottom of my heart, still feeling disappointed.Paragraph 2：Suddenly my wife walked up to me. It seemed that she had guessed how I felt. She asked me to look at the Christmas tree which was decorated with so many boxes. I thought she was showing off her efforts on the decoration but she took off a small box and passed it to me smiling and saying it was for me. I opened it and saw a letter which read“We will never forget you. Merry Christmas！”Under the letter was a watch which was clicking with delight. I was moved with tears.
