John is a barber, running a very successful business. He has a large group of regulars, some of whom enjoy a daily shave in his shop, while others just come for the occasional haircut. They keep coming because John loves to laugh, and 30 minutes spent in his shop is a medicine that cheers everyone up. His loud, booming laugh is a trademark around his town.
But John wasn’t always a barrel of laughs. In his teens and early adulthood, he suffered from depression. He often had a long face and found it hard to even smile. It was his neighbor, Mrs. Lee, who was a psychologist, that helped him out. She showed him funny videos or read light-hearted books for him, guided him to focus on things he was grateful for, rather than on things that had been bothering him. Following her advice, he forced himself to laugh as wild as possible, even if it felt fake (假的). To his surprise, after a while, he turned his life around, and real laughter came back into his life again.
Researchers say that we’re all born with the ability to laugh and that finding more ways to bring laughter into our lives does not have to be complicated. In fact, the best advice they offer is “Fake it till you make it.” If you focus on finding ways to laugh and enjoy life and try to smile and laugh even when not feeling like it, you can genuinely change your mood and laugh happily.
John also says we shouldn’t hold back our urge to laugh, even at silly things. Next time you see a funny advertisement on television, making you laugh inside, focus on letting out that laughter. Laughter can be contagious, so you may help others around you, too.
4. Why do John’s regular customers keep coming to his shop
A. Because he is a successful barber.
B. Because they want to buy a medicine.
C. Because his laughing can lift their spirits.
D. Because he can offer them best shave and haircut.
5. Who helped John solve the problem of his teens and early adulthood
A. Himself. B. Researchers. C. His neighbor. D. His customers.
6. What can be inferred from the researchers in the passage
A It is difficult to find ways to laugh.
B. Laughter can be faked and finally become real.
C. The ability to laugh should be developed after birth.
D. We can watch funny videos or read light-hearted books.
7. The underlined word “contagious” in the last paragraph probably means ______.
A. spread B. heard C. free D. available
C
Technologies used for human purposes are now being applied to improve pets well-being. And the pet humanization trend (趋势) of recent years is shown in technology, with a great increase in demand for different kinds of wearable tech devices (设备) from pet parents around the world. Today, it’s not unusual to see dogs or cats with something tied to their body to monitor (监控) their activity or track their location.
“People don’t know the answer to questions about how much exercise or the amount of food their dog needs and that’s where wearable monitoring device comes in,” says CEO and co-founder of PitPat, Andrew Nowell. Between 2020 and 2021,this UK developer of a pet tracking device for dogs shipped 39% more of its products. At the same time the UK pet population increased by 10% to more than 9 million and a new type of pet owner appeared, the so-called Generation Y. They are the majority of customers that buy a wearable tech device, mainly wanting to know how far their pet has gone and what the dog is doing while they’re out.
The wearable tech field is mainly made up of small startup companies. But this may change in the near future. “All the big players are very interested. They will jump into the field in one way or another,” said Asaf Dagan, co-founder of the wearable tech device producer PetPace. Market research companies are predicting (预料) that the field will be worth between $2.4 billion and $3.5 billion in the coming years, with a yearly increase ranging between 13.5% and 25% by 2025.
Despite the potential (潜力), there are still some challenges that companies will soon have to face. Awareness is one of them. “The function of the GPS tracker is better known among pet parents, but there is still work to do to help them know about activity monitors. It is a matter of putting the message across. The value is there and the need is there. It’s about providing a connection and creating awareness,” commented Dagan.
8. What does paragraph 1 mainly tell us about wearable tech devices
A. They help improve human well-being.
B. They require some changes to serve pets well.
C. They were invented for human-pet relationships.
D. They are becoming increasingly popular with pet owners.
9. Why do pet-owning Generation Y buy wearable tech devices
A. To keep their pets warm.
B. To monitor their pets’ activity.
C. To correct their pets’ behavior.
D. To save their pets from getting diseases.
10. Which of the following words best describes the future of the wearable tech field
A. Certain. B. Unclear. C. Promising. D. Risky.
11. What challenged the wearable tech device producers
A. Making continuous improvements to activity monitors.
B. Getting people to know the value of activity monitors.
C Guiding people to use GPS trackers in a proper way.
D. Increasing the market share of their GPS trackers.
D
Imagine that you could go into outer space, take your helmet off, and take a breath—without dying instantly, that is. Would the surrounding universe have a smell
We think of space as a huge empty, pitch-dark and dead silent place without air. A place like that couldn’t possibly have a smell, right As it turns out, space actually does have a clear smell. While we can’t smell anything in outer space because, as we mentioned, anyone attempting to do so would almost instantly die, what we can smell are the things that have come back from space.
Space suits, for instance, smell differently after they’ve returned from space than they did before launch. Astronauts returning from space say that their suits smell, in a word, burnt. The remaining scent of space reminds the astronauts of unpleasant burnt meat or metallic smoke.
What causes this rather unpleasant smell Scientists believe that it could come from polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, a chemical compound (化合物). These things are basically high-powered materials released into space during the nuclear reactions that power stars and supernovae.
However, this smell is one of many scents that space could have. The universe is massive, after all, filled with many different elements and compounds. Scientists do have a pretty good idea of what a lot of “space stuff” is made of, giving them better ideas about what it might smell like. Most memorably, the dust cloud at the center of the Milky Way contains large amounts of ethyl formate (甲酸乙酯). This is the compound that, on Earth, gives raspberries (覆盆子) their scent. Yes, raspberries. What’s more, ethyl formate itself is created from a reaction between acid and a type of alcohol, which gives it a smell similar to a strong alcohol. (Ironically, alcohol is one of the foods that are banned from space.) The smell of space—or at least that part of space—doesn’t seem so bad anymore.
12. How can we know space has a smell
A. By burning meat and metal.
B. By smelling the things returning from space.
C. By smelling astronauts’ clothes before launch.
D. By taking off helmets and taking a breath in space.
13. What does space smell like according to astronauts
A. Alcohol. B. Raspberries.
C. Unpleasant burnt space suits. D. Smelly burnt meat and metallic smoke.
14. What probably causes the smell
A. Stars and supernovae. B. Chemical compounds.
C. High-powered materials. D. Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons.
15. What can we learn from the last paragraph
A. It is believed there is only one smell in space.
B. The dust cloud in space smells like raspberries.
C. The smell of space may be known based on the “stuff” there.
D. Ethyl formate creates a reaction between acid and a type of alcohol.

John is a barber, running a very successful business. He has a large group of regulars, some of whom enjoy a daily shave in his shop, while others just come for the occasional haircut. They keep coming because John loves to laugh, and 30 minutes spent in his shop is a medicine that cheers everyone up. His loud, booming laugh is a trademark around his town.
But John wasn’t always a barrel of laughs. In his teens and early adulthood, he suffered from depression. He often had a long face and found it hard to even smile. It was his neighbor, Mrs. Lee, who was a psychologist, that helped him out. She showed him funny videos or read light-hearted books for him, guided him to focus on things he was grateful for, rather than on things that had been bothering him. Following her advice, he forced himself to laugh as wild as possible, even if it felt fake (假的). To his surprise, after a while, he turned his life around, and real laughter came back into his life again.
Researchers say that we’re all born with the ability to laugh and that finding more ways to bring laughter into our lives does not have to be complicated. In fact, the best advice they offer is “Fake it till you make it.” If you focus on finding ways to laugh and enjoy life and try to smile and laugh even when not feeling like it, you can genuinely change your mood and laugh happily.
John also says we shouldn’t hold back our urge to laugh, even at silly things. Next time you see a funny advertisement on television, making you laugh inside, focus on letting out that laughter. Laughter can be contagious, so you may help others around you, too.
4. Why do John’s regular customers keep coming to his shop
A. Because he is a successful barber.
B. Because they want to buy a medicine.
C. Because his laughing can lift their spirits.
D. Because he can offer them best shave and haircut.
5. Who helped John solve the problem of his teens and early adulthood
A. Himself. B. Researchers. C. His neighbor. D. His customers.
6. What can be inferred from the researchers in the passage
A. It is difficult to find ways to laugh.
B. Laughter can be faked and finally become real.
C. The ability to laugh should be developed after birth.
D. We can watch funny videos or read light-hearted books.
7. The underlined word “contagious” in the last paragraph probably means ______.
A. spread B. heard C. free D. available
【答案】4. C 5. C 6. B 7. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。主要通过介绍理发师John 的大笑能提升顾客的精神,论述了大笑可以改变人们的情绪,而且也会感染别人。
【4题详解】
推理判断题。根据首段中的“ They keep coming because John loves to laugh, and 30 minutes spent in his shop is a medicine that cheers everyone up. His loud, booming laugh is a trademark around his town.(他们一直来是因为John 爱笑,在他的店里呆上30分钟就像一剂良药,能让每个人都开心起来。他那响亮、洪亮的笑声是他所在城镇的标志。)”可知,在John 的理发店待上30分钟,他的大笑能让每个人开心起来,由此可知,人们经常去John 的理发店是因为他的笑能提升精神。故选C项。
【5题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中的“It was his neighbor, Mrs. Lee, who was a psychologist, that helped him out. She showed him funny videos or read light-hearted books for him, guided him to focus on things he was grateful for, rather than on things that had been bothering him.(是他的邻居、心理学家李太太帮了他的忙。她给他看有趣的视频或读轻松的书,引导他把注意力集中在他感激的事情上,而不是一直困扰他的事情上。)”可知,他的邻居,心理学家Mrs. Lee帮他走出困境,让他把注意力从过去集中在困扰他的事情转移到他感激的事情上,由此可知,是他的邻居帮他解决了他的青少年和成年早期的问题。故选C项。
【6题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中的“In fact, the best advice they offer is “Fake it till you make it.” If you focus on finding ways to laugh and enjoy life and try to smile and laugh even when not feeling like it, you can genuinely change your mood and laugh happily.(事实上,他们提供的最好建议是“假装直到你成功。”如果你专注于寻找欢笑和享受生活的方法,即使在不想笑的时候也试着微笑和大笑,你就能真正地改变你的心情,开心地笑。)”可知,研究者建议假装大笑直到成功是寻找欢笑和享受生活的方法,即使不想笑的时候也试着去微笑和大笑,最终能让你真正地开心大笑,由此可知,假装笑最终能变成真笑。故选B项。
【7题详解】
词义猜测题。根据划线单词后的“so you may help others around you, too.(所以你也可以帮助你周围的人。)”可知,你大笑可以帮助到你周围的其他人,根据so可知,划线单词所在句子与此句为因果关系,结合首段中的“They keep coming because John loves to laugh, and 30 minutes spent in his shop is a medicine that cheers everyone up.(他们一直来是因为John 爱笑,在他的店里呆上30分钟就像一剂良药,能让每个人都开心起来。)”可知,因为John 爱笑,人们去John 的理发店待30分钟能提升他们的精神,由此可知,大笑是有“有传染性的”,所以大笑能帮助到你周围的人,符合逻辑,故该单词的意思与“有传染性的”意义相近。故选A项。
C
Technologies used for human purposes are now being applied to improve pets well-being. And the pet humanization trend (趋势) of recent years is shown in technology, with a great increase in demand for different kinds of wearable tech devices (设备) from pet parents around the world. Today, it’s not unusual to see dogs or cats with something tied to their body to monitor (监控) their activity or track their location.
“People don’t know the answer to questions about how much exercise or the amount of food their dog needs and that’s where wearable monitoring device comes in,” says CEO and co-founder of PitPat, Andrew Nowell. Between 2020 and 2021,this UK developer of a pet tracking device for dogs shipped 39% more of its products. At the same time the UK pet population increased by 10% to more than 9 million and a new type of pet owner appeared, the so-called Generation Y. They are the majority of customers that buy a wearable tech device, mainly wanting to know how far their pet has gone and what the dog is doing while they’re out.
The wearable tech field is mainly made up of small startup companies. But this may change in the near future. “All the big players are very interested. They will jump into the field in one way or another,” said Asaf Dagan, co-founder of the wearable tech device producer PetPace. Market research companies are predicting (预料) that the field will be worth between $2.4 billion and $3.5 billion in the coming years, with a yearly increase ranging between 13.5% and 25% by 2025.
Despite the potential (潜力), there are still some challenges that companies will soon have to face. Awareness is one of them. “The function of the GPS tracker is better known among pet parents, but there is still work to do to help them know about activity monitors. It is a matter of putting the message across. The value is there and the need is there. It’s about providing a connection and creating awareness,” commented Dagan.
8. What does paragraph 1 mainly tell us about wearable tech devices
A. They help improve human well-being.
B. They require some changes to serve pets well.
C. They were invented for human-pet relationships.
D. They are becoming increasingly popular with pet owners.
9. Why do pet-owning Generation Y buy wearable tech devices
A. To keep their pets warm.
B. To monitor their pets’ activity.
C. To correct their pets’ behavior.
D. To save their pets from getting diseases.
10. Which of the following words best describes the future of the wearable tech field
A. Certain. B. Unclear. C. Promising. D. Risky.
11. What challenged the wearable tech device producers
A. Making continuous improvements to activity monitors.
B. Getting people to know the value of activity monitors.
C. Guiding people to use GPS trackers in a proper way.
D. Increasing the market share of their GPS trackers.
【答案】8. D 9. B 10. C 11. B

Imagine that you could go into outer space, take your helmet off, and take a breath—without dying instantly, that is. Would the surrounding universe have a smell
We think of space as a huge empty, pitch-dark and dead silent place without air. A place like that couldn’t possibly have a smell, right As it turns out, space actually does have a clear smell. While we can’t smell anything in outer space because, as we mentioned, anyone attempting to do so would almost instantly die, what we can smell are the things that have come back from space.
Space suits, for instance, smell differently after they’ve returned from space than they did before launch. Astronauts returning from space say that their suits smell, in a word, burnt. The remaining scent of space reminds the astronauts of unpleasant burnt meat or metallic smoke.
What causes this rather unpleasant smell Scientists believe that it could come from polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, a chemical compound (化合物). These things are basically high-powered materials released into space during the nuclear reactions that power stars and supernovae.
However, this smell is one of many scents that space could have. The universe is massive, after all, filled with many different elements and compounds. Scientists do have a pretty good idea of what a lot of “space stuff” is made of, giving them better ideas about what it might smell like. Most memorably, the dust cloud at the center of the Milky Way contains large amounts of ethyl formate (甲酸乙酯). This is the compound that, on Earth, gives raspberries (覆盆子) their scent. Yes, raspberries. What’s more, ethyl formate itself is created from a reaction between acid and a type of alcohol, which gives it a smell similar to a strong alcohol. (Ironically, alcohol is one of the foods that are banned from space.) The smell of space—or at least that part of space—doesn’t seem so bad anymore.
12. How can we know space has a smell
A. By burning meat and metal.
B. By smelling the things returning from space.
C. By smelling astronauts’ clothes before launch.
D. By taking off helmets and taking a breath in space.
13. What does space smell like according to astronauts
A. Alcohol. B. Raspberries.
C. Unpleasant burnt space suits. D. Smelly burnt meat and metallic smoke.
14. What probably causes the smell
A. Stars and supernovae. B. Chemical compounds.
C. High-powered materials. D. Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons.
15. What can we learn from the last paragraph
A. It is believed there is only one smell in space.
B. The dust cloud in space smells like raspberries.
C. The smell of space may be known based on the “stuff” there.
D. Ethyl formate creates a reaction between acid and a type of alcohol.

【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章讲述了大熊猫花花非常受欢迎,五一假期期间吸引了许多游客来到成都大熊猫繁育基地,增加了门票销量,带动了熊猫经济。
【41题详解】
考查定语从句。句意:据当地媒体报道,大熊猫花花吸引了26.4万名游客到成都大熊猫繁育研究基地,该基地是五一期间中国第二大热门旅游目的地。分析句子结构,空处引导一个非限制性定语从句,修饰先行词the Chengdu Research Base of Giant Panda Breeding,指物,且在从句中作主语,所以应用which引导。故填which。
【42题详解】
考查时态。句意:和花(小名花花)即将满三岁,因其温和的气质以及她罕见的不能爬树赢得了中国人的心。根据句中的时间状语soon可知,这里表示将来的事情,应用一般将来时。故填will be。
【43题详解】
考查介词。句意参考上题。due to意为“因为”,为固定短语。故填to。
【44题详解】
考查形容词。句意:她也不同于其他大熊猫,因为她有白色皮毛,而不是更常见的米色,以及微胖可爱的外表,使她具有很高的辨识度。这里应用形容词作表语。different意为“不同的”,be different from意为“与……不同”。故填different。
【45题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意参考上题。分析句子结构,本句是一个简单句,句子的谓语为is,所以空处应用非谓语动词。逻辑主语her white fur和her slightly fat and cute appearance与make之间是主谓关系,所以应用现在分词的一般式,作后置定语。故填making。
【46题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:花花增加了门票销售量,今年五一假期前三天18万张门票全部售罄。这里是with复合结构,所以空处应用非谓语动词作宾补。sell out既可作及物动词短语,也可作不及物动词短语,所以逻辑主语all 180,000 tickets和sell out之间可以是动宾关系,也可以使主谓关系,应用过去分词或现在分词的一般式作宾补。故填sold或selling。
【47题详解】
考查状语从句。句意:粉丝太多了,公园不得不把花花的观看时间限制在三分钟。so...that...意为“如此……以至于……”,引导结果状语从句。故填that。
【48题详解】
考查副词。句意:一位游客说:“我们这次旅行是专门为看花花的。”这里应用副词修饰后面的介词短语“for Hua Hua”,specially意为“专门地,特意”。故填specially。
【49题详解】
考查冠词。句意:他补充道:“我们计划在基地待一整天,只为了看大熊猫,甚至我们还计划明天继续来这里。”这里特指成都大熊猫繁育研究基地中的大熊猫,应用定冠词the。故填the。
【50题详解】
考查名词的数。句意:基地和成都其他地区商店里的头带、玩偶、书包和装饰环等与熊猫相关的纪念品已经变得很受欢迎。store“商店”为可数名词,这里指基地和成都其他地区的商店,应用复数形式。故填stores。
第四部分 写作(共两节,满35分)
第一节 短文改错(共10小题;每小题1分,满分10分)
51. 假定英语课上老师要求同桌之间交换修改作文,请你修改你同桌的以下作文。文中共有10处语言错误,每句中最多有两处。错误涉及一个单词的增加、删除或修改。
增加:在缺词处加一个漏字符号(∧),并在其下面写出该加的词。
删除:多余的词用斜线(\)划掉。

One day in elementary school, I called out of the class. My father told with me, “Your mother has given birth to your sister.” I was so glad because I always feel lonely at home. My mom placed me next to my sister on the bed before I got home. My little sister was sleeping peaceful, with soft, rosy cheeks and closed eye. Later, our relatives came and sent our best wishes. “May she grow up to being as beautiful as her mother,” they said. “May she become a excellent hostess.” My uncle wished she would be a famous author, what he always did for every newborn baby!
【答案】1. 在called前加was 2. 删除with 3. feel →felt 4. before →after/when/as 5. peaceful →peacefully 6. eye →eyes 7. our →their 8. being →be 9. a →an 10. what →which
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。主要讲述的是妈妈给作者生了个妹妹,亲戚们都来送上祝福。
【详解】1. 考查动词语态。句意:小学的一天,我被叫出了教室。分析句子可知,该句主语I与动词call之间为被动关系,所以谓语动词应为be called,根据时间状语One day 以及下文中的谓语动词told可知,此处使用一般过去时,且主语是第一人称单数,所以be动词应为was。故在called前加was。
2. 考查动词。句意:我父亲对我说:“母亲为你生了个妹妹。”分析句子可知,told为及物动词,其后无需介词,直接跟宾语。故删除with。
3. 考查动词时态。句意:我很高兴,因为我在家里总是感到孤独。分析句子可知,根据主句中的谓语动词was及全文语境可知,该句应为一般过去时,且feel与主语I之间为主动关系。故将feel改为felt。
4. 考查连词。句意:我回家后(时),妈妈把我放在妹妹旁边的床上。根据句意可知,主句动作placed me next to my sister on the bed发生在从句中的动作got home之后或同时发生,所以此处的时间状语从句的连词应使用after、when或as。故将before改为after/when/as。
5. 考查副词。句意:我的小妹妹闭着眼睛,柔软的红润的脸颊,安详地睡着了。分析句子可知,修饰动词was sleeping应为副词peacefully作状语。故将peaceful改为peacefully。
6. 考查名词。句意:我的小妹妹闭着眼睛,柔软的红润的脸颊,安详地睡着了。根据句意可知,此处表示“小妹妹闭着眼睛”,眼睛应该是名词复数。故将eye改为eyes。
7. 考查代词。句意:后来,我们的亲戚来了,送来了他们最美好的祝愿。根据句意可知,此处表示“亲戚们”,应是第三人称复数,所以此处应为“他们的”为their。故将our改为their。
8. 考查动词不定式。句意:“愿她长大后像她妈妈一样漂亮,”他们说。分析句子可知,表示“长大成为”应为不定式形式,所以此处的to不是介词。故将being改为be。
9. 考查冠词。句意:愿她成为一个出色的女主人。分析句子可知,hostess为可数名词单数,其前使用冠词,且表示泛指,使用不定冠词,excellent的首个音素为元音,所以使用不定冠词an。故将a改为an。
10. 考查定语从句。句意:我叔叔希望她成为一个著名的作家,他总是为每个新生儿做这件事!分析句子可知,此处为关系词引导的非限制性定语从句,关系词在从句中作主语,结合句意可知,先行词指事,所以使用关系代词which。故将what改为which。
