B
My greatest regret in life is that I failed to tell my superb teachers how much they contributed to my early education.
Ruth Hammerman taught English to the eighth-graders. She was the first to show me the rules of what Evelyn Waugh called our “rich and delicate language.” She was a no-nonsense instructor. Unlike common teachers, she diagramed (用图表展示) sentences so we could know the grammar rules. She never seemed to be tired of the simple pleasures of sharing her learning.
Under her influence, I had the strong belief that language needs to be well-spoken and properly written. Yet over the years I never made the effort to find her and to express my thankfulness for what she did for me. Two years after being in her class, I began the study of Latin and French, and the foundation (基础) she provided in English grammar served me well. Sadly, I never looked back.
In high school I took advanced French in a class taught by Richard Miller, the finest teacher I have ever experienced at any level. Mr. Miller brought to his subject a surprisingly deep understanding and new analysis (分析). Reading “Phèdre”, Racine’s classic play, he asked us to note there were 1,654 lines in it, and then pointed out the care Racine devoted to structure. Years later I made the same point — giving Mr. Miller credit — in a college French class, and my professor was surprised by my understanding of the play. Mr. Miller taught us to enjoy literature with particular points of view. Yet I never made the effort in later years to tell him what he meant to me.
Mr. Miller is certainly long dead. If she is alive, Miss Hammerman would likely be in her 90s. In preparing this article, I tried to find her but was unsuccessful.
I am certain my act is common. People often forget to express love and thankfulness to their teachers. I ought to have told Miss Hammerman and Mr. Miller how much they did for me. I suppose they knew their work was effective because they believed in what they were doing. Now I appreciate how special they were.
4. What is the most beneficial part to the author in Miss Hammerman’s class
A. Grammar. B. Writing. C. Speaking. D. Reading.
5. What is special about Mr. Miller’s French class
A. He asked students to count lines.
B. He stressed the importance of play.
C. He analyzed literature in a new way.
D. He showed great devotion to students.
6. What does the underlined phrase “my act” in the last paragraph refer to
A. Preparing the article. B. Looking for the teachers.
C. Failing to thank teachers. D. Copying teachers’ points.
7. What best describes the two teachers according to the text
A. Creative. B. Frank. C. Humorous. D. Strict.
8. What is the author’s purpose of writing the text
A. To show love for French literature.
B. To explore the meaning of education.
C. To explain why teachers are important.
D. To share memories of the two teachers.
【答案】4 A 5. C 6. C 7. A 8. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。文章讲述了作者学生时代的两位非常优秀教师对自己早期教育的影响，后悔自己没有及时告诉老师自己的感情，也呼吁大家要及时表达对老师的感情。
【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“Two years after being in her class, I began the study of Latin and French, and the foundation she provided in English grammar served me well.”（在上她的课两年后，我开始学习拉丁语和法语，她提供的英语语法基础对我很有帮助）可知，在Hammerman的课堂上，对作者最有益的部分是语法。故选A项。
【5题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段“Mr. Miller brought to his subject a surprisingly deep understanding and new analysis (分析).”（米勒先生给他的学科带来了令人惊讶的深刻理解和新的分析）可知，他以一种新的方式分析文学，这是米勒先生法语课的特别之处。故选C项。
【6题详解】
词句猜测题。根据最后一段“People often forget to express love and thankfulness to their teachers.”（人们经常忘记向老师表达爱意和感激之情）可知推断，“I am certain my act is common.”（我确信我的行为很普遍）此处my act指“没有去感谢老师”。故选C项。
【7题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段“Unlike common teachers, she diagramed (用图表展示) sentences so we could know the grammar rules.”（与普通老师不同，她画了句子的图表，这样我们就可以知道语法规则了）以及根据第四段“Mr. Miller brought to his subject a surprisingly deep understanding and new analysis (分析).”（米勒先生给他的学科带来了令人惊讶的深刻理解和新的分析）可知，作者的两位老师的教学都有创新性，Creative创新的，符合题意。故选A项。
【8题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段“My greatest regret in life is that I failed to tell my superb teachers how much they contributed to my early education.”（我一生中最大的遗憾是，我没有告诉我优秀的老师他们对我的早期教育做出了多大的贡献）以及最后一段“I ought to have told Miss Hammerman and Mr. Miller how much they did for me. I suppose they knew their work was effective because they believed in what they were doing. Now I appreciate how special they were.”（我应该告诉哈默曼小姐和米勒先生他们为我做了多少。我想他们知道自己的工作是有效的，因为他们坚信自己所做的。现在我明白他们有多特别了）可知，本文主要是作者对两位老师的回忆。故选D项。
C
At the start of every working week, millions of people around the world get ready for something they do endlessly, joylessly and badly: a meeting.
The root of the rotten meeting is simple, says Madeleine de Hauke, a meeting coach and teacher in an Antwerp Management School. “We spend our lives and huge sums of money in meetings, but there’s very little investment (投入) into helping people run them effectively.”
Madeleine is correct. Running a meeting well takes skill. People need to know ahead why they are meeting, what they are supposed to achieve, who really needs to be there and how they should contribute. That sounds obvious but it is not, as anyone who has been to a pointless meeting knows. Yet meeting leaders are expected to learn all this on the job. I cannot remember ever being taught how to organize a meeting, and I have rarely had a job requiring me to do it.
I also like Madeleine’s descriptions of what she calls the Meeting Monsters: people who destroy meetings with all sorts of annoying behaviors. There is the cruel off-topic speaker. The non-stop noise in the background. The confusing rambler (夸夸其谈者). The rude multi-tasker. The mute who says nothing but emails later to say what was decided will never work.
The trouble is, we are all meeting monsters sometimes, says Madeleine. A good meeting leader knows how to stop this behavior, or make sure it never starts by making it clear what will and won’t be allowed.
A bad meeting is like a virus. By failing to produce good decisions it often requires another meeting to be held, then another and another. Luckily there is no need for a vaccine, just a bit more care and preparation, and an understanding that there is no shame in being taught how to lead a meeting well.
9. What causes bad meetings according to Madeleine
A. Boring meeting activities. B. Untrained meeting leaders.
C. Incompetent meeting coaches. D. Unreasonable meeting schedules.
10. Which is a typical behavior of a “Meeting Monster”
A. Always raising questions. B. Scaring meeting attenders.
C. Never stopping his chatter. D. Refusing to finish his tasks.
11. Why does the author say “a bad meeting is like a virus”
A. It makes the attenders sick. B. It results in more meetings.
C. It fails to produce decisions. D. It requires care and preparation.
12. Which can be the best title for the text
A. Kill the Meeting Monsters B. Get Ready for Bad Meetings
C. Start the Week with A Meeting D. Invest More for Meeting Attenders
【答案】9. B 10. C 11. B 12. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了当代人们大多数时间都在为无聊且糟糕的会议做准备，指出办好会议需要技巧，并给出了一些建议。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第三段“Madeleine is correct. Running a meeting well takes skill. People need to know ahead why they are meeting, what they are supposed to achieve, who really needs to be there and how they should contribute. That sounds obvious but it is not, as anyone who has been to a pointless meeting knows. Yet meeting leaders are expected to learn all this on the job. I cannot remember ever being taught how to organize a meeting, and I have rarely had a job requiring me to do it.( 玛德琳是正确的。办好会议需要技巧。人们需要提前知道他们为什么要开会，他们应该达到什么目标，谁真正需要在那里，以及他们应该如何做出贡献。这听起来显而易见，但事实并非如此，任何参加过毫无意义的会议的人都知道这一点。然而，与会领导人预计将在工作中了解所有这些。我不记得曾经有人教过我如何组织会议，我也很少有工作要求我这样做。)”可知，根据玛德琳所说，糟糕的会议是由于缺乏训练的会议领导导致。故选B。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第四段“I also like Madeleine’s descriptions of what she calls the Meeting Monsters: people who destroy meetings with all sorts of annoying behaviors. There is the cruel off-topic speaker. The non-stop noise in the background. The confusing rambler (夸夸其谈者). The rude multi-tasker. The mute who says nothing but emails later to say what was decided will never work.(我也喜欢Madeleine对“会议怪物”的描述：那些用各种恼人行为破坏会议的人。还有残忍的跑题者。背景中无休止的噪音。令人困惑的漫游者。粗鲁的多面手。沉默寡言的人什么都不说，只会在邮件中说已经决定的事情永远不会成功。)”可知，“会议怪物”的典型行为总是喋喋不休。故选C。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章最后第一段“A bad meeting is like a virus. By failing to produce good decisions it often requires another meeting to be held, then another and another. (糟糕的会议就像病毒。如果不能做出正确的决定，通常就需要召开一次又一次的会议。)”可知，作者把糟糕会议比成病毒是因为，糟糕的会议会导致再召开多次会议。故选B。
【12题详解】
主旨大意题。根据倒数第二段“The trouble is, we are all meeting monsters sometimes, says Madeleine.（玛德琳说，问题是，我们有时都是会议怪物。）”以及最后一段“Luckily, there is no need for a vaccine, just a bit more care and preparation, and an understanding that there is no shame in being taught how to lead a meeting well.(幸运的是，改善一个坏的会议不需要一个疫苗，仅仅对会议多一点关心和准备，并且明白被教如何领导一个会议是不应该感到羞愧的。)”及全文可知，作者主要介绍办好会议避免成为会议怪物需要的技巧。所以“Kill the Meeting Monsters(杀死会议怪物)”切题。故选A。
D
Masks that helped save lives are proving a deadly danger for wildlife, with birds and sea creatures trapped in the shocking number of thrown-away facial coverings. Single-use masks have been found around pavements, waterways and beaches worldwide. Worn once, the thin protective materials can take hundreds of years to decompose. “Face masks aren't going away any time soon—but when we throw them away, these items can harm the environment and the animals,” Ashley Fruno of animal rights group PETA said.
In Britain, a gull was rescued by the RSPCA after its legs became tangled in the straps of a mask for up to a week. The animal welfare charity took it to a wildlife hospital for treatment before its release.
The biggest impact may be in the water. More than 1.5 billion masks made their way into the world's oceans last year, accounting for around 6,200 extra tonnes of ocean plastic pollution, according to environmental group Oceans Asia.
Conservationists in Brazil found one mask inside the stomach of a penguin after its body was washed up on a beach, while a dead pufferfish was discovered caught inside another off the coast of Miami. French campaigners found a dead crab trapped in a mask near the Mediterranean. Masks and gloves are “particularly problematic” for sea creatures, says George Leonard, chief scientist from NGO Ocean Conservancy. “When those plastics break down in the environment, they then enter the food chain and impact entire ecosystems.” he added.
There has been a shift towards greater use of reusable cloth masks as the pandemic has worn on, but many are still using the lighter single-use varieties. Campaigners have urged people to bin them properly and cut the straps to reduce the risk of animals becoming trapped. Oceans Asia has also called on governments to increase fines for littering and encourage the use of washable masks.
13. What's Paragraph 1 mainly about
A. The problem of littering masks. B. The long time to break down masks.
C. The threat of masks to wildlife. D. The protective use of masks to people.
14. What did the animal welfare charity do to the gull
A. They gave first aid to the bird. B. They released the bird at once.
C. They kept the bird for about a week. D. They sent the bird to hospital.
15. How is Paragraph 4 developed
A. By providing examples. B. By giving explanations.
C. By making comparisons. D. By analyzing causes.
16. Which measure has been taken to help solve the problem
A. Forbidding the use of single-use masks. B. Wearing reusable cloth masks.
C. Cutting the masks up before throwing. D. Increasing fines for binning masks.
【答案】13. C 14. D 15. A 16. B
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了曾经帮助拯救生命的面具，现在被证明对野生动物是致命的危险，鸟类和海洋生物被困在数量惊人的丢弃的面部覆盖物中。列举了一些口罩对野生动物造成威胁的例子和对此问题的解决措施。
【13题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段“Masks that helped save lives are proving a deadly danger for wildlife, with birds and sea creatures trapped in the shocking number of thrown-away facial coverings.

【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“The animal welfare charity took it to a wildlife hospital for treatment before its release.(在它被释放之前，这家动物福利慈善机构把它送到一家野生动物医院进行治疗)”可知，动物福利慈善机构把这只海鸥送到了医院。故选D。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段“Conservationists in Brazil found one mask inside the stomach of a penguin after its body was washed up on a beach, while a dead pufferfish was discovered caught inside another off the coast of Miami. French campaigners found a dead crab trapped in a mask near the Mediterranean.

【16题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段中“There has been a shift towards greater use of reusable cloth masks as the pandemic has worn on, but many are still using the lighter single-use varieties.(随着新冠大流行的结束，人们开始更多地使用可重复使用的布口罩，但许多人仍在使用较轻的一次性口罩品种)”可知，已经采取了佩戴可重复使用的口罩的措施来帮助解决这个问题。故选B。
E
Artificial intelligence (AI) still can’t see the future, but a new algorithm (算法) may come close: using nothing but written movie summaries, the AI can consistently tell which films will play well—or awfully—to critics and audiences. If the model can be further improved, it could one day help producers predict whether a movie will be a failure at the box office, before it’s even made.
To test several models, researchers used plot summaries of 42,306 movies from all over the world, many collected from Wikipedia. The models broke the summaries by sentence and used something called sentiment (情感) analysis to analyze each one. Sentences considered “positive”, such as “Thor loves his hammer”, would receive a rating closer to positive one. And sentences that were considered “negative”, like “Thor gets in a fight” would be rated closer to negative one.
Generally, successful movies such as 1951’s Alice in Wonderland—which scored 80% on the movie-rating website Rotten Tomatoes—have frequent waves in sentiment; unsuccessful ones, such as 2009’s The Limits of Control, vary less. It’s not important whether the films begin or end happily, the researchers say. What’s important is that the sentiments change frequently.
The sentiment ratings in each summary were then simplified into a single score to reflect how often the sentiment changed. The researchers tested three different methods of arriving at a final score. All three could predict fairly accurately whether a movie would be unpopular, and one method worked especially well for guessing which thrillers and comedies reviewers would hate.
The methods were not as efficient at guessing which movies would succeed, but they still predicted the results more accurately than random chance. In the future, the researchers say their methods could be bettered to predict the amount a movie could earn at the box office and help producers decide which movies to invest in. The system’s fair judgment might give an advantage to less well-known writers, the researchers add. It could also potentially save the public from having to sit through films like Jaws: The Revenge, which online critics and audience alike rate as terrible.
17. How can AI help foresee the future of movies
A. By testing plot models. B. By using sentiment analysis.
C. By writing summaries. D. By consulting critics and audiences.
18. What is the key factor for a successful movie according to the researchers
A. A happy ending. B. Famous movie stars.
C. A well-known producer. D. Frequent sentiment changes.
19. What benefit will the methods possibly bring
A. Helping producers invest wisely. B. Assessing a movie’s quality accurately.
C. Increasing box office earnings. D. Providing written summaries for critics.
20. What’s the researchers’ attitude to the model
A. Doubtful. B. Cautious.
C. Optimistic. D. Ambiguous.
【答案】17. B 18. D 19. A 20. C
【解析】
【分析】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了一种AI算法未来在电影制作预判断方面起到的作用。
【17题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“The models broke the summaries by sentence and used something called sentiment (情感) analysis to analyze each one. （这些模型会按句子打破摘要，并使用一种叫做情感分析的东西，来逐句进行分析）”可知，AI在预测未来电影时，是借助情感分析的方式来进行的，故选择B项。
【18题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段第一句“Generally, successful movies such as 1951’s Alice in Wonderland—which scored 80% on the movie-rating website Rotten Tomatoes—have frequent waves in sentiment（一般来说，成功的电影就如1951年的《爱丽丝梦游仙境》，该片在电影评级网站烂番茄上获得了80%的分数，就是有情感上的频繁波动）”可知，一部好的电影，关键是要有情感上的变化，故选择D项。
【19题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段中“In the future, the researchers say their methods could be bettered to predict the amount a movie could earn at the box office and help producers decide which movies to invest in.（研究人员表示，在未来，他们的方法可以更好地预测电影的票房收入，并帮助制片人决定投资哪些电影）”可知，这些方法在将来能够帮助制片人预测和决定投资哪一部电影。故选择A项。
【20题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中“In the future, the researchers say their methods could be bettered to predict the amount a movie could earn at the box office and help producers decide which movies to invest in. The system’s fair judgment might give an advantage to less well-known writers, the researchers add. （研究人员表示，在未来，他们的方法可以更好的预测票房收入并帮助制片人决定投资哪部电影。这个系统的公平判断也能给那些不知名的作家一个有利的条件，研究人员补充说）”字里行间的“be bettered...”，“help...”，“give an advantage to...”，可知，作者对于AI的态度是乐观的，A. Doubtful怀疑的；B. Cautious谨慎的；C. Optimistic乐观的；D. Ambiguous模棱两可的。故选择C项。
第二节 语句排序(共 5 小题，每小题 2 分，满分 10 分)
21. 将下列几个部分(A、B、C、D 和 E)按题号排序，构成一个符合逻辑的完整语篇。
A. If you are wondering what this has to do with your public speaking class, the answer is quite a lot. As the class goes on, for example, you will probably spend a good deal of time organizing your speeches.
B. What is true of organization is true of many aspects of public speaking. The skills you learn in your speech class can help you become a more effective thinker in a number of ways. As you work on expressing your ideas in clear, accurate language, you will improve your ability to think clearly and accurately.
C. If you take full advantage of your speech class, you will be able to develop your skills as a critical thinker in many circumstances. This is one reason public speaking has been regarded as a vital part of education since the days of ancient Greece.
D. In the broad sense, critical thinking is focused, organized thinking - the ability to see clearly the relationships among ideas. It has often been said that there are few new ideas in the world, only reorganized ideas.
E. Organizing a speech is not just a matter of arranging the ideas you already have. Rather, it is an important part of shaping the ideas themselves.
【答案】DAEBC
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了公共演讲与批判性思维的关系。
【详解】1．选项句意翻译
A. If you are wondering what this has to do with your public speaking class, the answer is quite a lot. As the class goes on, for example, you will probably spend a good deal of time organizing your speeches.（如果你想知道这和你的公开演讲课有什么关系，答案是有很大关系。例如，随着课程的进行，你可能会花大量的时间来组织你的演讲。）
B. What is true of organization is true of many aspects of public speaking. The skills you learn in your speech class can help you become a more effective thinker in a number of ways. As you work on expressing your ideas in clear, accurate language, you will improve your ability to think clearly and accurately.（对于组织来说是正确的，对于公共演讲的许多方面也是正确的。你在演讲课上学到的技巧可以在很多方面帮助你成为一个更有效的思考者。当你努力用清晰、准确的语言表达你的想法时，你会提高你清晰、准确思考的能力。）
C. If you take full advantage of your speech class, you will be able to develop your skills as a critical thinker in many circumstances. This is one reason public speaking has been regarded as a vital part of education since the days of ancient Greece.（如果你充分利用你的演讲课，你将能够在许多情况下培养你作为一个批判性思考者的技能。这就是为什么自古希腊以来，公开演讲一直被视为教育的重要组成部分。）
D. In the broad sense, critical thinking is focused, organized thinking - the ability to see clearly the relationships among ideas. It has often been said that there are few new ideas in the world, only reorganized ideas.（从广义上讲，批判性思维是有重点的、有组织的思维——清楚地看到思想之间关系的能力。人们常说，世界上没有什么新思想，只有经过重组的思想。）
E. Organizing a speech is not just a matter of arranging the ideas you already have. Rather, it is an important part of shaping the ideas themselves.（组织演讲不仅仅是把你已有的观点排列起来。相反，它是形成想法本身的重要组成部分。）
2．文章线索分析
根据各个选项意思可知，其中D项中提到的“critical thinking”和A项中提到的“public speaking”构成文章DAEBC选项意义串联的线索，也是为此而展开话题的。先由批判性思维的定义——批判性思维与公开演讲的关系——组织演讲的过程——组织适用于演讲的各方面——公开演讲也促进演讲者的批判性思维，由此为整篇文章逻辑意义发展的主要顺序。A项中的this指代D项中的organized thinking，E项应为A项的递进，为上文的意义开展。B项中的organization与E项中的Organizing相一致，继续说明组织的重要性。C项说明了批判性思维与公开演讲之间的相互促进关系，也是对全文的总结。故答案为DAEBC。
第三节 选句填空(共 5 小题，每小题 2 分，满分 10 分)
根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。
Imagine life without electricity. It may sound like a bad dream to you. But it’s a fact of life for nearly one billion people around the world.
Those left in the dark generally live in developing countries. Often, they live in poor, rural areas, far from big cities. ___22___ They could use oil generators (发电机) to make electricity, but most of these villagers can’t afford them.
Without electricity, common things in your life are just a distant dream there. People can never watch TV or play with mobile phones. Without power, people can’t even keep food from going bad. ___23___ Farming requires power in all kinds of different ways. Also, people without electricity can’t get clean water from the deep wells.
Many companies that make environmentally friendly products seem to have found a solution. They have developed ways to bring renewable energy to places that are “in the dark.” ___24___ It’s very different from energy sources such as gas and oil, which are burned to create electricity. Unlike gas and oil, renewable energy never runs out. And there’s no costly fuel to keep buying!
___25___ Instead power is generated locally, through windmills, solar panels, and batteries. It is believed that renewable energy use will grow more rapidly in developing countries.
Children in Timor, Indonesia, once spent several hours a day getting water from the village well so that their families could farm, wash and cook. Now, pumps do the work — all powered by windmills. The windmills also provide electricity to nearby farms and homes.
With the help of low-cost renewable energy sources, some of the world’s poorest villages now have a renewed sense of hope. ___26___
A. Farming there gets very easy.
B. Growing food is a problem, too.
C. People there are looking forward to a bright future.
D. Renewable energy comes from the sun, wind, and water.
E. Running power lines to these distant villages is too expensive.
F. The villagers believe that renewable energy can help fight air pollution.
G. This energy solution doesn’t require expensive power lines or power factories.

【26题详解】
上文“With the help of low-cost renewable energy sources, some of the world’s poorest villages now have a renewed sense of hope.(在低成本可再生能源的帮助下，世界上一些最贫穷的村庄现在有了新的希望)”；C项“People there are looking forward to a bright future.(那里的人们期待着光明的未来)”，此句的“there”指代上文“some of the world’s poorest villages”，“希望”和“光明的未来”语义一致，故选C项。

【42题详解】
考查强调句。句意：但是在法国，芭蕾舞发展成了我们今天所知道的形式。分析句子可知，句子为强调句，句式为“It is/was+被强调部分+that/who+句子其他部分”，被强调部分是地点状语in France，所以空格处应用that。故填that。
【43题详解】
考查介词。句意：法国统治者路易十四在早期历史上对芭蕾舞的发展方向产生了很大影响。分析句子可知，句中涉及固定短语have a big influence on…，意为“对……有很大影响”，所以空格处应用介词on。故填on。
【44题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：他从1643年开始统治法国72年。分析句子可知，句中有谓语动词ruled且句中无连词，所以空格处应用非谓语动词，句子主语He和start为逻辑上的主谓关系，所以应用start的现在分词starting作状语。故填starting。
【45题详解】
考查代词。句意：路易十四把芭蕾舞变成了一种反映他力量和影响力的舞蹈形式。分析句子可知，句中power为名词，前面应用形容词性物主代词修饰，he为人称代词主格，对应的形容词性物主代词为his，意为“他的”。故填his。
【46题详解】
考查副词。句意：芭蕾舞的许多规则和极其详细的动作表达了一个人的力量和社会关系。分析句子可知，句中detailed为形容词，前面应用副词修饰，extreme为形容词，对应的副词为extremely，意为“极其，非常”，作状语。故填extremely。
【47题详解】
考查冠词。句意：国王确保芭蕾舞成为他的宫廷人民的必修课。名词requirement为可数名词，泛指，且以辅音音素开头，所以用不定冠词a。故填requirement。
【48题详解】
考查名词。句意：他还是皇家舞蹈学院的创始人，这是一个重要人物可以学习这种艺术的机构。分析句子可知，定冠词the后应用名词，作表语，found意为“创建”，动词词性，对应的名词为founder，意为“创始人”，句子主语为He，所以用founder的单数形式。故填founder。
【49题详解】
考查定语从句。句意：他还是皇家舞蹈学院的创始人，这是一个重要人物可以学习这种艺术的机构。分析句子可知，句子为限制性定语从句，先行词为institution，在从句中作地点状语，所以应用关系副词where引导从句。故填where。
【50题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：芭蕾舞逐渐从国王宫廷的舞蹈转变为由专业舞者表演的舞蹈。分析句子可知，句中有谓语动词changed且句中无连词，所以空格处应用非谓语动词，perform意为“表演”，动词词性，句中one和perform为逻辑上的动宾关系，所以应用perform的过去分词performed作后置定语。故填performed。
【51题详解】
考查时态和语态。句意：1715年路易十四去世时，芭蕾舞被带到了欧洲其他地区，并以其他方式发展。根据句中“When Louis the Fourteenth died in 1715”可知，句子陈述的是过去发生的事，ballet和bring为被动关系，所以句子应用一般过去时的被动语态，ballet是单数，所以空格处应填was brought。故填was brought。

My greatest regret in life is that I failed to tell my superb teachers how much they contributed to my early education.
Ruth Hammerman taught English to the eighth-graders. She was the first to show me the rules of what Evelyn Waugh called our “rich and delicate language.” She was a no-nonsense instructor. Unlike common teachers, she diagramed (用图表展示) sentences so we could know the grammar rules. She never seemed to be tired of the simple pleasures of sharing her learning.
Under her influence, I had the strong belief that language needs to be well-spoken and properly written. Yet over the years I never made the effort to find her and to express my thankfulness for what she did for me. Two years after being in her class, I began the study of Latin and French, and the foundation (基础) she provided in English grammar served me well. Sadly, I never looked back.
In high school I took advanced French in a class taught by Richard Miller, the finest teacher I have ever experienced at any level. Mr. Miller brought to his subject a surprisingly deep understanding and new analysis (分析). Reading “Phèdre”, Racine’s classic play, he asked us to note there were 1,654 lines in it, and then pointed out the care Racine devoted to structure. Years later I made the same point — giving Mr. Miller credit — in a college French class, and my professor was surprised by my understanding of the play. Mr. Miller taught us to enjoy literature with particular points of view. Yet I never made the effort in later years to tell him what he meant to me.
Mr. Miller is certainly long dead. If she is alive Miss Hammerman would likely be in her 90s. In preparing this article, I tried to find her but was unsuccessful.
I am certain my act is common. People often forget to express love and thankfulness to their teachers. I ought to have told Miss Hammerman and Mr. Miller how much they did for me. I suppose they knew their work was effective because they believed in what they were doing. Now I appreciate how special they were.
4. What is the most beneficial part to the author in Miss Hammerman’s class
A. Grammar. B. Writing. C. Speaking. D. Reading.
5. What is special about Mr. Miller’s French class
A. He asked students to count lines.
B. He stressed the importance of play.
C. He analyzed literature in a new way.
D. He showed great devotion to students.
6. What does the underlined phrase “my act” in the last paragraph refer to
A. Preparing the article. B. Looking for the teachers.
C. Failing to thank teachers. D. Copying teachers’ points.
7. What best describes the two teachers according to the text
A. Creative. B. Frank. C. Humorous. D. Strict.
8. What is the author’s purpose of writing the text
A. To show love for French literature.
B. To explore the meaning of education.
C. To explain why teachers are important.
D. To share memories of the two teachers.

At the start of every working week, millions of people around the world get ready for something they do endlessly, joylessly and badly: a meeting.
The root of the rotten meeting is simple, says Madeleine de Hauke, a meeting coach and teacher in an Antwerp Management School. “We spend our lives and huge sums of money in meetings, but there’s very little investment (投入) into helping people run them effectively.”
Madeleine is correct. Running a meeting well takes skill. People need to know ahead why they are meeting, what they are supposed to achieve, who really needs to be there and how they should contribute. That sounds obvious but it is not, as anyone who has been to a pointless meeting knows. Yet meeting leaders are expected to learn all this on the job. I cannot remember ever being taught how to organize a meeting, and I have rarely had a job requiring me to do it.
I also like Madeleine’s descriptions of what she calls the Meeting Monsters: people who destroy meetings with all sorts of annoying behaviors. There is the cruel off-topic speaker. The non-stop noise in the background. The confusing rambler (夸夸其谈者). The rude multi-tasker. The mute who says nothing but emails later to say what was decided will never work.
The trouble is we are all meeting monsters sometimes, says Madeleine. A good meeting leader knows how to stop this behavior, or make sure it never starts by making it clear what will and won’t be allowed.
A bad meeting is like a virus. By failing to produce good decisions it often requires another meeting to be held, then another and another. Luckily there is no need for a vaccine, just a bit more care and preparation, and an understanding that there is no shame in being taught how to lead a meeting well.
9. What causes bad meetings according to Madeleine
A. Boring meeting activities. B. Untrained meeting leaders.
C. Incompetent meeting coaches. D. Unreasonable meeting schedules.
10. Which is a typical behavior of a “Meeting Monster”
A. Always raising questions. B. Scaring meeting attenders.
C. Never stopping his chatter. D. Refusing to finish his tasks.
11. Why does the author say “a bad meeting is like a virus”
A. It makes the attenders sick. B. It results in more meetings.
C. It fails to produce decisions. D. It requires care and preparation.
12. Which can be the best title for the text
A. Kill the Meeting Monsters B. Get Ready for Bad Meetings
C. Start the Week with A Meeting D. Invest More for Meeting Attenders
D
Masks that helped save lives are proving a deadly danger for wildlife, with birds and sea creatures trapped in the shocking number of thrown-away facial coverings. Single-use masks have been found around pavements, waterways and beaches worldwide. Worn once, the thin protective materials can take hundreds of years to decompose. “Face masks aren't going away any time soon—but when we throw them away, these items can harm the environment and the animals,” Ashley Fruno of animal rights group PETA said.
In Britain, a gull was rescued by the RSPCA after its legs became tangled in the straps of a mask for up to a week. The animal welfare charity took it to a wildlife hospital for treatment before its release.
The biggest impact may be in the water. More than 1.5 billion masks made their way into the world's oceans last year, accounting for around 6,200 extra tonnes of ocean plastic pollution, according to environmental group Oceans Asia.
Conservationists in Brazil found one mask inside the stomach of a penguin after its body was washed up on a beach, while a dead pufferfish was discovered caught inside another off the coast of Miami. French campaigners found a dead crab trapped in a mask near the Mediterranean. Masks and gloves are “particularly problematic” for sea creatures, says George Leonard, chief scientist from NGO Ocean Conservancy. “When those plastics break down in the environment, they then enter the food chain and impact entire ecosystems.” he added.
There has been a shift towards greater use of reusable cloth masks as the pandemic has worn on, but many are still using the lighter single-use varieties. Campaigners have urged people to bin them properly and cut the straps to reduce the risk of animals becoming trapped. Oceans Asia has also called on governments to increase fines for littering and encourage the use of washable masks.
13. What's Paragraph 1 mainly about
A. The problem of littering masks. B. The long time to break down masks.
C. The threat of masks to wildlife. D. The protective use of masks to people.
14. What did the animal welfare charity do to the gull
A. They gave first aid to the bird. B. They released the bird at once.
C. They kept the bird for about a week. D. They sent the bird to hospital.
15. How is Paragraph 4 developed
A. By providing examples. B. By giving explanations.
C. By making comparisons. D. By analyzing causes.
16. Which measure has been taken to help solve the problem
A. Forbidding the use of single-use masks. B. Wearing reusable cloth masks.
C. Cutting the masks up before throwing. D. Increasing fines for binning masks.

Artificial intelligence (AI) still can’t see the future but a new algorithm (算法) may come close: using nothing but written movie summaries, the AI can consistently tell which films will play well—or awfully—to critics and audiences. If the model can be further improved, it could one day help producers predict whether a movie will be a failure at the box office, before it’s even made.
To test several models, researchers used plot summaries of 42,306 movies from all over the world, many collected from Wikipedia. The models broke the summaries by sentence and used something called sentiment (情感) analysis to analyze each one. Sentences considered “positive”, such as “Thor loves his hammer”, would receive a rating closer to positive one. And sentences that were considered “negative”, like “Thor gets in a fight” would be rated closer to negative one.
Generally, successful movies such as 1951’s Alice in Wonderland—which scored 80% on the movie-rating website Rotten Tomatoes—have frequent waves in sentiment; unsuccessful ones, such as 2009’s The Limits of Control, vary less. It’s not important whether the films begin or end happily, the researchers say. What’s important is that the sentiments change frequently.
The sentiment ratings in each summary were then simplified into a single score to reflect how often the sentiment changed. The researchers tested three different methods of arriving at a final score. All three could predict fairly accurately whether a movie would be unpopular, and one method worked especially well for guessing which thrillers and comedies reviewers would hate.
The methods were not as efficient at guessing which movies would succeed, but they still predicted the results more accurately than random chance. In the future, the researchers say their methods could be bettered to predict the amount a movie could earn at the box office and help producers decide which movies to invest in. The system’s fair judgment might give an advantage to less well-known writers, the researchers add. It could also potentially save the public from having to sit through films like Jaws: The Revenge, which online critics and audience alike rate as terrible.
17. How can AI help foresee the future of movies
A. By testing plot models. B. By using sentiment analysis.
C. By writing summaries. D. By consulting critics and audiences.
18. What is the key factor for a successful movie according to the researchers
A. A happy ending. B. Famous movie stars.
C. A well-known producer. D. Frequent sentiment changes.
19. What benefit will the methods possibly bring
A. Helping producers invest wisely. B. Assessing a movie’s quality accurately.
C. Increasing box office earnings. D. Providing written summaries for critics.
20 What’s the researchers’ attitude to the model
A. Doubtful. B. Cautious.
C. Optimistic. D. Ambiguous.
