第一部分:听力
1—5 ABCBA 6—10 ACACB 11—15 CCBCC 16—20 BABAC
第二部分:阅读理解
A篇 本文是一篇应用文。文章主要介绍了四本物理学入门教科书,这些书用简单的语言介绍了物理学。
21. C 细节理解题。文章第二段提到,《力学、相对论和热力学》(Mechanics, Relativity, and Thermodynamics)这本书适合化学、工程学和AP物理学专业的学生,而文章第三段提到,《理工科学生适用物理学》(Physics for Students of Science and Engineering)帮助学生阅读科学数据、回答科学问题并确定基本概念,且此书的名字也提及了工程学专业,故这两本书都适合工程学专业的学生阅读。故选C。
22. D 细节理解题。根据文章最后一段第二句“To ensure a better understanding and ability to apply these concepts, worked examples are provided, giving students tools to develop problem-solving skills and conceptual understanding.”可知,为了确保学生能够更好地理解和应用物理概念,《大学物理学与现代物理学》(University Physics with Modern Physics)这本书中提供了可行的例子,来帮助学生更好地理解概念并解决问题,故这本书最适合喜欢通过实际例子学习物理的学生。故选D。
23. A 文章出处题。根据文章第一段第二句“Based on our web research, here are our top four picks with the introduction of physics in simple, practical language.”并分析文章的语言和内容结构可知,这篇文章可能是一篇在线文章(类似于网络文章或博客帖子)。故选A。
B篇 本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了菲律宾27岁学生Carvey Ehren Maigue凭借AuREUS系统技术在James Dyson可持续发展大奖赛中脱颖而出的故事。
24. C 推理判断题。第二段介绍了Carvey的学习背景,并指出正是因此他才研发了AuREUS系统;再结合第一段最后一句“But while every entry was impressive, Carvey Ehren Maigue’s ultimately won — for good reason!”的提示可知,第二段的功能是解释了为什么Carvey能够赢得比赛。故选C。
25. A 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“it is environmentally friendly and can be used for a long time, perfectly meeting our purpose and making it the most striking one”可知,AuREUS环保且耐用的特点让它符合比赛的宗旨,因此是可持续性使它脱颖而出。故选A。
26. D 推理判断题。根据第四段中的“With AuREUS, we upcycle the crops of the farmers that were hit by natural disasters, such as typhoons, which also happen to be an effect of climate change. By transforming them into new energy, we can be both future-looking, and solve the problems that we are currently experiencing now.”可知,这种技术可以对遭受了自然灾害影响的农民的农作物加以循环利用,将它们转化为新的能源。由此可推断,AuREUS能够变废为宝。故选D。
27. C 推理判断题。通读全文,尤其是最后一段中的“... through this award, I will be able to reach out to more people”(reach out to sb表示“愿意向某人提供帮助”)和“This is my second time applying, and through persistence, I managed to win.”可知,Carvey是一个乐于助人且坚持不懈的人。故选C。
C篇 本文是一篇说明文。文章中作者通过引用多项研究来表明喝无糖汽水的危害,包括增加患抑郁症、中风和痴呆的风险。
28. D 推理判断题。结合全文内容可知,作者通过引用多项研究来支持自己的观点。这些研究结果佐证了作者关于饮用无糖汽水会对人体造成危害的观点,故作者通过展示研究来提出自己的观点。故选D。
29. C 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“There’s the latest evidence that they increase the risk of depression ...”可知,根据哈佛医学院研究人员的数据,无糖汽水会增加患抑郁症的风险。故选C。
30. B 词义猜测题。根据画线词前的“A daily diet soda was linked to smaller brains”和画线词后的“two risk factors for dementia”可知,每天喝无糖汽水会导致大脑萎缩,所以“aggravates long-term memory”也应表示无糖汽水的不良影响。因此,aggravate的意思应为“使恶化”,worsen与之意思相近。故选B。
31. A 推理判断题。结合全文内容可知,多项研究表明喝无糖汽水对人的健康有危害,包括增加患抑郁症、中风和痴呆的风险。同时结合最后一段中的“Avoiding depression, stroke, and dementia is an obvious goal for whoever desires to age healthily.”可知,为了能健康地老去,作者可能会建议我们停止喝无糖汽水。故选A。
D篇 本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了麦肯锡全球研究院的一份报告。报告预测,到2055年,随着对技术的适应,大约一半的人工工作有可能实现自动化。
32. B 推理判断题。根据第一段中的“About half of the work carried out ... a McKinsey Global Institute report predicted.”和接下来三段的展开论述可知,这篇报告主要分析了自动化对经济的影响,探讨了自动化在提高效率、推动经济增长方面的作用,以及这一趋势对不同类型工作的影响。故选B。
33. D 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段内容可知,机器人和计算机会越来越能够完成需要认知能力才能完成的事,例如感受情绪或驾驶车辆。故选D。
34. C 推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“the analysis shows that humans will still be needed: The total productivity gains will only come about if people work alongside machines”可知,人类仍然是被需要的:只有当人类和机器一起工作时,总生产率提高才会实现。由此可知,作者对人类工作者持积极乐观的态度。A项“担忧的”;B项“复杂的”;C项“乐观的”;D项“怀疑的”。故选C。
35. D 主旨大意题。通读全文可知,本文开头主要介绍了机器人技术、人工智能和机器学习的最新发展使人类处于一个新的自动化时代的风口浪尖。麦肯锡全球研究院的一份报告预测,到2055年,随着对技术的适应,大约一半的人工工作有可能实现自动化。接着文章展开介绍了自动化对经济及不同类型工作的影响,最后提出人类和机器一起工作,总生产率提高才会实现。因此D项“自动化:未来人类的替代品?”适合作本文标题。故选D。
第二节 本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了可持续旅游,以及一些降低旅行者对环境的影响的具体方法。
七选五
36. F 空前介绍了可持续旅游及其目标,空后建议了一些具体方法来降低旅游对环境的影响。分析选项可知,F项“如果管理不当,旅游业可能会产生令人难以置信的负面影响。”对开展可持续旅游的原因进行了解释(即“为什么”),承接了上文的“是什么”,同时开启了下文的“怎么做”。故选F。
37. A 空处应填入本段的中心句。空后内容“Travel doesn’t have to be about going somewhere far away ... all of which can just as well be nearby. Find somewhere nearby ...”强调了旅游并不一定要去很远的地方,在附近探索和发现也可以。分析选项可知,A项“待在家附近。”符合语境。故选A。
38. D 本段主旨是“选择更环保的交通方式”。空前提到公共交通是仅次于步行的探索新目的地的最佳方式。分析选项可知,D项“它不仅对环境更好,而且更便宜。”分析了公共交通的好处,解释了为什么要选择公共交通工具,承接上文,符合语境。选项中的it指代的是上文的public transportation。故选D。
39. G 本段主旨是“避免(去)游客过多的目的地”。空处位于段尾,应总结本段内容,再次点明主旨。分析选项可知,G项“去探访较少有人去的目的地可能更加令人愉悦和有益。”总结了本段的内容,符合语境。“Visiting less-visited destinations”是对本段关键信息“over-visited destinations”的反义转述。故选G。
40. E 空处上文强调,通过“与自然亲近”的旅游,人们可以更好地理解和欣赏自然界。分析选项可知,E项中的“Get in touch with the world”指的就是亲近自然,是“connecting with nature”的同义表达。同时,选项中的“sitting at home”也和下文中的“come home”形成呼应。故选E。

第四部分 写作
第一节
参考范文:
Dear Chris,
I’m writing to share with you an art class I had in a park last Friday.
We were tasked to draw or paint something that impressed us most. Inspired by the fantastic scenery, I decided to create a watercolor painting of the small bridge over the park’s pond, surrounded by blooming flowers.
The entire experience was incredibly refreshing. Being surrounded by nature not only sparked my creativity but also offered a much-needed break from the usual hustle and bustle of school life. I felt a deep sense of peace as I painted.
In a word, it was not just an art class; it was a moment of connection with nature that I truly cherished.
Yours,
Li Hua
第二节
参考范文:
Para 1
I ran back to Gunter and told him the bad news. He looked at me in disbelief, asking me what to do. Flashing him another apologetic smile, I begged him for a delayed payment. “If I miss this last bus to Prague, I’ll be late for the conference which is so important that I can’t afford to miss it!” I explained. “May I have your phone number I will call you and return the money I owe you. I promise I will keep my word or you keep my watch!” I added, handing him my watch as well as my business card. Gunter accepted my business card but rejected my watch. He wrote down his phone number and gave it to me. “Just keep your promise, Sir.” A feeling of gratitude washed over me as I heard his words. Giving him a firm handshake, I jumped out of the car, made a mad run for the bus, and jumped onto it just before its departure.
Para 2
Four days later, when I was back in Vienna, I called Gunter as promised. He picked me up at the bus station where he had dropped me off four days before. Beaming a warm smile at him, I gave him a big hug the moment I saw him. We chatted happily on the way to the airport. I told him that thanks to his generosity and timely help, everything had gone smoothly. When he stopped his taxi outside the airport, I paid him for the “double car ride”, back and forth from the airport to the bus station, together with a generous tip that he turned down. I also gave him an attractive souvenir I had bought at Prague, which he accepted with delight. We became good friends and kept in touch with each other regularly. I felt blessed to have such a warm-hearted friend like Gunter.

W: Good morning, everyone. I’m Susan Brown. I’m glad to be invited here to talk about lifelong learning today. Many people consider it unnecessary to learn new things after leaving school. But in my opinion, one should never stop learning. But how to learn in our daily life Reading books is a good way. Reading a little every day is one of the easiest ways to have new ideas, gain new knowledge and receive indirect tutoring. There are billions of cool books and authors just waiting to inspire you. Taking courses is also a good way. You can sign up for both online and offline courses to learn. There’s probably a course on any topic you can imagine. You can get a tutor to learn something in his field. You can also have a peer group to keep you motivated. Many people love traveling. This is also a good way to learn new things. It’s so easy to get caught up in your own culture if you don’t travel and see more of the world. So among these ways, which way do I love most You may wonder. Well, I love going to different places to experience different cultures best.2022级高三上学期第1次测试(开学考)

College students around the world have recently developed products and designs for a chance to win the James Dyson Sustainability Award. The competition is tough, as many of the brightest engineers and scientists compete for the prize. But while every entry was impressive, Carvey Ehren Maigue’s ultimately won — for good reason!
The 27-year-old from the Philippines has been studying at one of the country’s top engineering schools and will graduate soon. Throughout his time there, he learned plenty about design, which is what led him to create AuREUS System Technology. These solar panels are made from food waste and transform UV light (紫外线) into renewable energy, even on a cloudy day!
According to the awarding remarks, AuREUS combines renewable material and advanced technology, which allows other devices to harvest UV light and transform it into electricity. Of course, “it is environmentally friendly and can be used for a long time, perfectly meeting our purpose and making it the most striking one! It’s truly a game changer!”
AuREUS is based on a plastic material, so it can be formed into different shapes. The science behind it is a bit confusing, but in Carvey’s words, “AuREUS is actually a material, or a technology. With AuREUS, we upcycle the crops of the farmers that were hit by natural disasters, such as typhoons, which also happen to be an effect of climate change. By transforming them into new energy, we can be both future-looking, and solve the problems that we are currently experiencing now.”
While it’s clear to us that this product is special, Carvey was still caught by surprise when he found out he won the competition. It took a few days for him to process the news, and he’s already looking at what he can create next! “I was very happy because I know that through this award, I will be able to reach out to more people,” he added. “This is my second time applying, and through persistence, I managed to win.”

Is diet soda safe If you’re concerned about sugar, diet products seem a better option, sweet and not so bad for you. Wrong! Drinking diet soda regularly can increase your risk of diseases. Despite the fact that we call these drinks “diet”, the artificial sweeteners they contain are linked to weight gain, not loss.
There’s the latest evidence that they increase the risk of depression, which comes from a new analysis by researchers at Harvard Medical School. The team drew upon a data set of nearly 32,000 female nurses, ages 42 to 62 when the study began. It turned out that the nurses who consumed the most diet drinks had a 37 percent higher chance of depression, compared to those who drank the least or none.
Diet soda also increases your risk of stroke (中风), according to a separate meta-analysis that included 72 studies. Looking for the causes behind the stroke, researchers took various blood measurements when 12 healthy volunteers in their 20s drank water, soda, or diet soda. The result showed that both sodas slowed the flow of blood within the brain. Though the effect didn’t seem sufficient to cause stroke, slower blood flow could have accumulating effects.
Other researchers have found that diet soda increases the risk of dementia (痴呆), from data from nearly 178,000 volunteers tracked over an average of nine years. That’s not a big surprise. An earlier study of about 4,300 volunteers concluded that drinking diet soda every day was tied to three times the risk of dementia over the following decade. The researchers looked at brain scans and the results of mental function assessments. A daily diet soda was linked to smaller brains and aggravates long-term memory, two risk factors for dementia.
Avoiding depression, stroke, and dementia is an obvious goal for whoever desires to age healthily. So you know what to do.
28. How does the author present his point of view
A. By analyzing causes. B. By giving opinions. C. By quoting specialists. D. By presenting research.
29. What effect might diet soda have on people
A. Slight weight loss. B. Increased blood flow. C. Raised depression risk. D. Severe mental decline.
30. Which can best replace the underlined word “aggravates” in paragraph 4
A. Deletes. B. Worsens. C. Motivates. D. Stimulates.
31. What might the author advise us to do
A. Quit consuming diet sodas. B. Limit the daily sugar intake.
C. Set achievable health goals. D. Follow fixed aging process.
D
Recent developments in robotics, artificial intelligence, and machine learning have brought us in the eye of the storm of a new automation age. About half of the work carried out by people was likely to be automated by 2055 with adaption to technology, a McKinsey Global Institute report predicted.
Automation can enable businesses to improve performance by reducing errors and improving quality and speed, and in some cases achieving outcomes that go beyond human capabilities. At a time of weak productivity growth worldwide, automation technologies can provide the much-needed promotion of economic growth, according to the report. Automation could raise productivity growth globally by 0.8 percent to 1.4 percent. At a global level, technically automated activities involved 1.1 billion employees and 11.9 trillion U.S. dollars in wages, the report said.
The report also showed that activities most influenced by automation were physical ones in highly structured and predictable environments, as well as data collection and processing. In the United States, these activities make up 51 percent of activities in the economy, accounting for almost 2.7 trillion dollars in wages. They are most common in production, accommodation and food service, and the retail (零售) trade. And it’s not just low-skill, low-wage work that is likely to be influenced by automation; middle-skill and high-paying, high-skill occupations, too, have a degree of automation potential.
The robots and computers not only can perform a range of routine physical work activities better and more cheaply than humans, but are also increasingly capable of accomplishing activities that require cognitive (认知的) capabilities, such as feeling emotions or driving.
While much of the current debate about automation has focused on the potential that many people may be replaced and therefore lose their financial resources, the analysis shows that humans will still be needed: The total productivity gains will only come about if people work alongside machines.
32. What is the report mainly about
A. Comparisons of robots with humans. B. Analysis of automation’s potential in economy.
C. Prediction of the unemployment problem. D. Explanations of the concept of the automation age.
33. What might happen in 2055 according to the text
A. Automation will cause weak productivity growth.
B. Automation will reduce employees’ wages.
C. Activities like data collection and processing will disappear.
D. Activities involve feeling emotions can be performed by robots.
34. How does the author feel about human workers
A. Worried. B. Mixed. C. Optimistic. D. Doubtful.
35. Which can be a suitable title for the text
A. Automation: A challenge to all B. Automation: Where to go from here
C. Automation: Who is the eventual winner D. Automation: A future replacement for humans

Sustainable travel is now one of the fastest-growing movements. Its goal is to meet the needs of the tourism industry without harming natural and cultural environments. 36 Here are some concrete ways to reduce your environmental impact as a traveler.
37 Travel doesn’t have to be about going somewhere far away. It’s the art of exploration, discovery and getting out of your comfort zone, all of which can just as well be nearby. Find somewhere nearby you haven’t been, get in your car, and go for a visit. You never know what you’ll come across.
Make greener transportation choices. After walking, public transportation is the next best way to explore new destinations. 38 When it comes to longer distances, buses and trains are your best way of getting around, both of which can be quite an experience in and of itself.
Avoid over-visited destinations. If you can, avoid places with over-tourism. You’ll find fewer crowds and lower prices, and you also won’t be putting as much pressure on local communities struggling to keep up. And, from a personal-enjoyment point of view, who wants to deal with crowds or long lines No one. 39
Take a nature-related trip. If you want to better understand and appreciate the natural world, try taking a trip with the single purpose of connecting with nature. 40 I promise that when you come home, you’ll have a new viewpoint on why we’re all so focused on being environmentally friendly these days.
A. Stay close to home.
B. Find an ideal place to explore.
C. Sustainable travel can be useful to support communities.
D. Not only is it better for the environment, but it’s cheaper as well.
E. Get in touch with the world in a way that sitting at home doesn’t.
F. If not managed properly, tourism can have incredibly negative impacts.
G. Visiting less-visited destinations can be much more enjoyable and rewarding.

67. 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。
I met Gunter on a cold, wet and unforgettable evening in September. I had planned to fly to Vienna and take a bus to Prague for a conference. Due to a big storm, my flight had been delayed by an hour and a half. I touched down in Vienna just 30 minutes before the departure of the last bus to Prague. The moment I got off the plane, I ran like crazy through the airport building and jumped into the first taxi on the rank without a second thought.
That was when I met Gunter. I told him where I was going, but he said he hadn't heard of the bus station. I thought my pronunciation was the problem, so I explained again more slowly, but he still looked confused. When I was about to give up, Gunter fished out his little phone and rang up a friend. After a heated discussion that lasted for what seemed like a century, Gunter put his phone down and started the car.
Finally, with just two minutes to spare we rolled into the bus station. Thankfully, there was a long queue (队列) still waiting to board the bus. Gunter parked the taxi behind the bus, turned around, and looked at me with a big smile on his face. "We made it," he said.
Just then I realised that I had zero cash in my wallet. I flashed him an apologetic smile as I pulled out my Portuguese bankcard. He tried it several times, but the card machine just did not play along. A feeling of helplessness washed over me as I saw the bus queue thinning out.
At this moment, Gunter pointed towards the waiting hall of the bus station. There, at the entrance, was a cash machine. I jumped out of the car, made a mad run for the machine, and popped my card in, only to read the message: "Out of order. Sorry."
注意:
