阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。
A
Wales is home to some of the UK's most beautiful drives. Narrow lanes crisscross the land, meaning travel can be slow一but there's no need to rush.
The Coastal Way
This route（路线）covers the entire length of Cardigan Bay, and spoils travelers with its remote beaches and charming seaside towns.
Comb the sand for fossils, shells at Aberdaron Beach, and then hit the road, heading east toward Porthmadog. Here you can take a heritage steam train, a relic of the region's mining history, to give Snowdonia's skyline your undivided attention.
The Cambrian Way
The Cambrian Way, which cuts north to south through the heart of Wales, is a fantastic place, thanks to its patchwork fields, dense forests and rolling, sheep- dotted hills.
The route becomes increasingly wild and rough as it weaves north into Powys. Spend the night in Rhayader, and you'll need plenty of energy for hiking or mountain biking along the trails.
The North Wales Way
Spanning Wales, short but scenic north coast, this route offers road trippers a chance to encounter Welsh history, language and culture in a splendid setting.
Head west through the uncrowded Clwydian Hills until you reach Ruthin, a little town brimming with history, where you can see its restored castle, century spanning museum and Victorian Ruthin Gaol, Border Country.
Tracing the dotted line that separates England and Wales on a map, this border hugging route will take you to some of Wales5 most underrated sites slowly, if you stick to the narrow back roads.
Starting in the border town of Chepstow in Southeast Wales, make your way northward. You can top to admire the roofless ruins of Tintern Abbey and the lesser known castles Skenfrith and Grosmont.
Which route best suits people who enjoy mountain scenery
A. The Coastal Way. B. The Cambrian Way.
C. The North Wales Way. D. Border Country.
What is special about The North Wales Way
It enables travelers to visit a castle.
It is an area of scenic beauty.
It offers a glimpse into Welsh culture.
It is a crowd-free escape from big cities.
What is the purpose of the article
To introduce road trips in Wales.
To introduce the Welsh landscape.
To tell about Wales' history.
To advertise Wales' tourism industry.

A 293-million-mile journey of the NASA Perseverance rover （探测器）to Mars ended successfully on February 18th, 2021, with a picture-perfect landing inside the Jezero Crater. The car-sized, six-wheeled rover, nicknamed Percy, is the US space agency's biggest and most advanced explorer to date. Its primary mission is to search for signs of ancient microbial（微生物的）life on Mars.
Landing on Mars is extremely tricky. The Red Planet's gravitational（引力的） pull causes approaching spacecraft to go faster to high speeds, while its thin atmosphere一just one percent that of Earth's—does little to help slow it down as it approaches the surface.
The scientists had to reduce Percy's 12,000 mph speed to a safe landing speed of less than five mph--in just six and a half minutes. The target entry angle also had to be a precise 12 degrees--any steeper, and the spacecraft would burn up； any flatter, and it would get lost in space. It is no wonder that the final approach is often referred to as the “seven minutes of terror”.
Upon attaining a manageable speed, Percy briefly flew over the Martian surface to seek out the perfect landing spot. Its complex map-reading system rapidly scanned the area and matched it with maps in its database to find the best location.
The NASA scientists will spend the next two months testing Percy's scientific instruments. Once ready, the rover will begin to carry out its mission.
“Perseverance is the smartest robot ever made, but confirming that microbial life once existed carries an unusually large burden of proof,“ said Lori Glaze, director of NASA's Planetary Science Division. While we'll learn a lot with the great instruments we have aboard the rover, it may very well require the far more well-equipped laboratories and delicate instruments back here on Earth to tell us whether our samples（样本）carry evidence that Mars once harbored life.”
24. What is the extraordinary challenge for the rover to land on Mars
The speed reduction.
The atmosphere analysis.
The location search.
The time management.
What is paragraph 3 mainly about
Ways to find the precise entry angle.
Consequences of wrong entry degree.
C. Factors to survive “the seven minutes”.
D. Reasons for the necessity of speed reducing.
What does the underlined word "it" in paragraph 4 refer to
A. The space. B. The area.
C. The system. D. The surface.
What can be inferred from Lori Glaze's words
Instruments aboard the rover are not quite reliable.
Perseverance is able to collect enough evidence needed.
Man still has a long way to go to prove there was life on Mars.
Samples of Mars will be returned soon to the labs on the Earth.
C
Elon Musk isn't content with electric cars, shooting people into orbit and populating Mars. He also wants to get inside your brain.
His goal is to develop devices that can provide treatment to neural （神经的） diseases一and that may one day be powerful enough to put humanity on an equal footing with possible future super intelligent computers.
Not that it's anywhere close to that yet.
In a video Friday obviously aimed at seeking new employees, Musk showed off the second version of the Neuralink, a device about the size of a large coin. It's designed to be put in a person's head. An earlier version of the device has to be placed behind an ear like a huge hearing aid.
But the young company is far from having a commercial product, which would involve complex human trials and governmental approval. Friday's video showed three pigs. One, named Gertrude, had a Neuralink device in its brain.
Musk, a founder of both the electric car company Tesla Motors and the space- exploration firm SpaceX, has always been worried about that smarter AI machines will outwit humans. His solution Link our brains to computers so we can keep up with or even win over them in intelligence!
Musk urged coders（程序员），engineers and especially people who have actually created a product to apply. "You don't need to have brain experience,“ he said, adding that this is something that can be learned on the job.
Connecting a brain up directly to electronics is not new. Doctors have already put similar devices in brains to treat such conditions as Parkinson's disease. In 2016, researchers reported that a man regained some movement in his own hand with a similar brain implant. But Musk's proposal goes beyond this. Neuralink wants to build on those existing medical treatments and work on devices that could link our brains to computers one day.
What can we learn about the first version of the Neuralink
It is smaller than a hearing aid.
It can be put in a person's head.
It has to be placed behind the ear.
It is already available at the market.
Which of the following can replace the underlined word “outwit” in paragraph 6
A. copy B. defeat C. understand D. destroy
What kind of candidates does Elon Musk particularly want
A. Someone who also wants to create the same device.
Doctors who already know how to treat brain diseases.
People who have already designed some unique product.
Engineers who are good at linking brains to computers.
Where is this text likely from
An advertisement. B. A test report.
C. A science fiction novel. D. A news report.
D
On the “healthy“ section of any breakfast menu, you're bound to spot an egg white omelet（煎蛋卷）. With no fat and just a quarter of the calories in a whole egg, the whites look like the best choice at first glance. Not so fast, though new research shows a good reason why you might want to keep the yolk （蛋黄）in if you want to get fit. Plus, forget the bad impression that the cholesterol（胆固醇）in yolks has gotten in the past. The USDA removed limits on dietary cholesterol in its most recent dietary guidelines. It's all because evidence doesn't back up claims that the cholesterol you eat has much influence on blood cholesterol levels.
In a recent study, researchers had ten young men eat either whole eggs or egg whites after completing a strength-training workout. Both egg choices contained 18 grams of protein, and the eggs were developed with chemical markers. Thanks to them, the researchers tracked how the men's bodies used amino acids（氨基酸）from the eggs and egg whites, and found some surprising results. About 65 to 70 percent of amino acids were available in the blood for both the whole egg and egg white groups suggesting they'd be equally useful in building muscles. But the rest of the results didn't back up that conclusion.
When the researchers looked specifically at how much protein synthesis-the process that helps muscles repair and grow一occurred, one form of egg clearly did better than the other. "Having whole eggs immediately after exercise resulted in greater protein synthesis than just having egg whites,” says lead study author Nicholas Burd in a statement.
Although this study was too small to be conclusive, its conclusion backs up whole egg benefits that nutritionists have been praising for years. From their point of view egg whites are high-protein, low-calorie, but the yolk contains nearly all of an egg's vitamins. And one study found that adults who eat whole eggs in the morning lose more weight and body fat than those who get the same number of calories from a bread-based breakfast. While no large studies have looked into the weight-loss benefits of whole eggs vs egg whites, there's also no evidence that the 140 calories in two whole large eggs should scare you away. Crack on, egg lovers. 32. What's implied in paragraph 1
A. The whites can help people have a good shape.
The yolk's function is different from the whites.
People tend to consider the yolk to be unhealthy.
The yolk has much to do with blood cholesterol levels.
Why were the eggs developed with chemical markers
To help process the proteins better.
To make them healthier for people.
To track the amino acids during digestion.
To help the body consume amino acids.
The findings of the recent study mainly show that.
amino acids are easy to get in eggs
eating the whole egg helps build muscles
the yolk of the egg is better than the white
eggs can produce more proteins than any other kinds of food
35. What would be the best title for the text
Egg Whites VS Whole Eggs
Egg White Omelets or Just the Yolk
The Correct Way to Build Muscles
Unknown Facts about Egg White Omelets

Do you always get angry about something Do you always take things too personally Do you find yourself thinking people are laughing at you in public places 36 If you are sensitive about something, you are easily worried and angry when people talk about it.
37 Actually, sensitive people can appreciate food, the sound of music, the different colors of nature, or even traffic. They can also notice small differences in meaning, making them more emotionally（感情上地）intelligent and more creative.
However, it can also be a terrible burden（负担）if left uncared for. 38 So you should do something to stop being too sensitive. For example, recognize those people who often leave you feeling tired in life and avoid them. Instead, surround yourself with people who will make you feel bright and happy. If you constantly feel negative about yourself, you'll struggle with being sensitive. 39
Another important thing to do is forgive those who have wronged you. Often sensitive people aren't good at letting things go. 40 This is unhealthy as it'll keep you from enjoying both the present and the future. Take the lesson； leave the pain.
In a word, though being sensitive is certainly a challenge, you can deal with it correctly by taking proper efforts.
Why are some people sensitive
Being a bit sensitive isn't a bad thing.
You are sensitive and you can't change that.
If the answer to any of these questions is yes, you are sensitive.
As a result, they find it difficult to move on from painful experiences.
So when a negative thought comes, correct it with something positive.
Sensitive people always put too much pressure on themselves and tend not to take care of themselves properly.

★ Research shows that when we are absorbed in an activity, even minor distractions can have a huge effect. According to a study, regaining our 41 drive following an interruption can take about 20 minutes.
Multitasking, as many studies have shown, is a myth. A more accurate account of what happens when we tell ourselves we are multitasking is that we're rapidly _ 42 between activities, sucking our mental energy. And the 43 can be surprisingly serious. An experiment found that we lose as many as 10 IQ points when we allow our work to be 44 by distractions like emails and text messages.
The 45 is that multitasking is enjoyable. It's fun to satisfy your curiosity. Who knows what that next email or text message holds 46 Finding out provides immediate satisfaction. In contrast, 47 distractions and staying on task requires discipline and mental effort. So, what are we to do Our strategy is to change the _ 48 to move temptation further away： shut down your email program or 49 your phone. It's a lot easier to stay on task when you're not continuously fighting off mental desires. The 50 , which most of us consider common, is similar to dieting in a bakery. We all need the willpower to resist the temptations, but doing so comes with considerable costs to our limited supply of willpower.
Another worthwhile 51 is to collect similar activities together, keeping transition time to a 52 point. Instead of spreading phone calls, meetings and emails throughout your day, try 53 related tasks so that there are fewer transitions.
In some jobs, multitasking is 54 Some of us truly do need to stay connected to our clients, colleagues and managers. So it's worth noting that limiting disruptions is the only solution. Remember the more you do to minimize task switching over the course of the day, the more ability you'll have for activities that actually 55 . Even small changes can make a big difference.
41. A. inner B. personal C. initial D. ambitious
42. A. planning B. counting C. swapping D. switching
43. A. benefits B. reasons c. consequences D. challenges
44. A. changed B. interrupted c. guided D. adapted

James shook his money box again. Nothing! He carefully counted the coins that lay on the bed. $ 24. 52 was all that he had. The bicycle he wanted was $ 90! How on earth was he going to get the rest of the money He knew that his friends all had bicycles. It was hard to hang around with people when you were the only one without wheels. He thought about what he could do. There was no need to ask his parents for he knew they had no money to spare.
There was only one way to get money, and that was to earn it. He would have to find a job. But who would hire him and what could he do He decided to ask Mr Clay for advice, who usually had opinions in most things. "Well, you can start right here,“ said Mr Clay. "My windows need cleaning and my car needs washing.” That was the beginning of James5 odd-job（零工）business. For three months he worked every day after finishing his homework. He was surprised by the various jobs that people found for him to do. He took dogs and babies for walks, cleared out cupboards, and mended books. He forgot the number of cars he washed and windows he cleaned, but the money increased and he knew that he would soon have enough for the bicycle he was dying for. The day finally came when James counted his money and found $ 94. 32. He wasted no time and went down to the shop to pick up the bicycle he wanted.
It had been hard work for the money, but James knew that he valued his bicycle far more since he had bought it with his own money. He had achieved what he thought was impossible, and that was worth even more than the bicycle.
注意：
1.续写词数应为150左右；2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
He rode proudly home, looking forward to showing his new bicycle to his friends.
Many years later, James succeeded in

Dear Tom,
Delighted to receive your letter. And I'm writing to tell you something about Chinese high school students5 physical exercise.
With the increasing pressure from the national college entrance exam, more and more students have to sacrifice the time for sports to prepare for the exam, which is so important for their future development. They only have one P. E. class a week, obviously not enough. Actually, most of the students are eager to take part in sports, but they are so occupied with their study.
In my view, important though it is for them to have a better performance in the exam, health is equally important. Without a strong body, we would achieve nothing in our life. I hope all students can reorganize their timetable and try to build up their body.

He rode proudly home, looking forward to showing his new bicycle to his friends. His friends were more than glad that James owned his bicycle so that they could make a trip together. Excited and confident, James told them the fact that he spent spare time doing various jobs to realize his dream with money earned by himself. All of his friends admired him for his hard work that they would learn from him, achieving their goals without giving up. Going home happily, James was encouraged and required by his parents to thank Mr Clay for the odd-job business he offered. Thinking of so many surprising jobs, James understood all of them, moved to tears.
Many years later, James succeeded in running a company with the name of Good Opinions. He was willing to give good opinions to poor people in difficulty, offering various jobs and helpful equipment to help them overcome all the challenges and live happy lives. He used his life to thank Mr Clay and spread his kind spirits.

Good afternoon, everyone. Welcome to Sky News for the weather forecast over the weekend. I am Joanna Robinson.
It has always been dry and sunny over the past weekdays. The next two days will bring some rain. That rain will clear across northern and central Britain overnight, leaving most places dry, but northwest Scotland will stay wet. (18)
For Saturday, Ireland, Northern Ireland, Wales, central and southern England look dry in the morning, with almost unbroken sunshine by lunchtime.

It will be breezy for most of England too. The afternoon will see rain over Scotland turning increasingly showery, allowing more of northern Britain to brighten up.
