The human brain is a complex organ. It stores everything we go through, from our life experiences to our skills, our preferences, all the things that form our personality and our existence are stored in our brains alone as memories. With age, this complex structure often begins to deteriorate. The memories become harder to recall, we start forgetting things and our brain functions become weaker and slower with each passing day.
Dementia and Alzheimer’s are mental disorders that can lead to many painful experiences. More so when you see your own friends or family members suffer from it. But there are some who do not let even such problems bring them down. Paul Harvey, an 81-year-old orchestra conductor, is one such person. Last September, Harvey’s son Nick recorded a video of his father playing one of his compositions on the piano and posted it on Twitter. He suffers from Dementia too and wanted to show the world that even this mental disorder could not take music away from his father. The old man gained appreciation and love from millions of people on the internet.
Paul went against the diagnosis and proved that music truly does reach places even words or actions cannot. He put his music out in the world in the form of a single recorded by the BBC Philharmonic Orchestra. The funds raised by selling the records of this single will be going to the Alzheimer’s Society and Music for Dementia. The campaign is to make music available for free to patients who suffer from conditions like Alzheimer’s and Dementia.
To mark the day since his video went viral. he was also invited to conduct the BBC Philharmonic orchestra and given a chance to play two of his compositions at their studio, located in Salford. It is truly a heart-warming story.

B. It shows that disease cannot defeat everyone.
C. It shows that a kid can help a badly-ill father.
D. It shows that love of internet can never be changed.
7. Why is Harvey’s story a heart-warming story?
A. Because Harvey’s disease can be dealt with in time.
B. Because Harvey is recovering from a terrible illness.
C. Because others can help Harvey get rid of his disease.
D. Because others can offer good opportunities to Harvey.
【答案】4. A 5. A 6. B 7. D
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了阿尔茨海默氏症是一种精神疾病,会导致许多痛苦的经历。但是患病的81岁的老人Paul Harvey的儿子为他录制了一段用钢琴演奏的视频,并发布在网上,以此向世界证明,即使是这种精神疾病也不能从他父亲那里夺走音乐。

Known as Project Delta, the machine learning program takes into account thousands of variables and different calculations, and the things it would actually take a good team of organizers to manage. It ensures the food is going where it is needed most, where it’s most likely to get eaten, and many other things.
Many people describe food waste as “a good problem to have”, as it naturally suggests that there is enough to go around. The problem is that it’s not always going to where there are hungry people.
Producers and sellers alike try to make as much as they think they can find buyers for, while the final stage owner of food—restaurants, supermarkets, or hotels, often have too many things to worry about and consider how best to send food further down the line.
The excellent distribution (分发) of food is a challenging job to take on all the way down the supply chain. Perhaps this is the main reason that 30-40% of the food in the U. S. is wasted.
Adele Peters reports the Google innovation and shares that there is no simple way for food suppliers to let food banks know what they have available, or for food banks to communicate what they need.
Emily Ma explains that they set out to create a smarter food system. One that knows in what state the food is, its location, and where best to direct it to. This way, it ensures that it ends up to the people who need it most and not in a landfill.
Finally, in a more impressive display of machine learning, special cameras are equipped next to waste bins in Google-facility kitchens. They were able to collect twice as much information about food waste as the manual by-hand logs that were made by chefs, which took about 30-60 minutes to complete.
8. Why do many people think of food waste as “a good problem to have”?
A. Because it shows there’s enough food.
B. Because the problem is easy to deal with.
C. Because it is good to solve the food waste problem.
D. Because it is not always bad to waste food.
9. In which stage is food waste serious?
A. Production.
B. Cooking.
C. Distribution.
D. Eating.
10. What causes food waste?
A. No appreciation of food.
B. Lack of communication.
C. Too much worry about money.
D. Slow development of technology.
11. What is the best title for the text?
A. Google Is Trying to Solve Food Problem
B. Joint Efforts Are Needed to Decrease Food Waste
C. Food Distribution Is to Be Greatly Improved
D. Google Is Creating Tools to Reduce Food Waste
【答案】8. A 9. C 10. B 11. D
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。主要介绍了被称为Delta项目的机器学习程序,它能确保食物被送到最需要的地方,最有可能被吃掉的地方,以及做其他许多事情。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。由文章第二段第一句“Many people describe food waste as “a good problem to have”, as it naturally suggests that there is enough to go around. ”(许多人将食物浪费描述为“一个好问题”,因为它必然表明有足够的食物。)可知,人们认为食物浪费是“一个好问题”,是因为这表明有足够的食物。故选A项。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。由文章第四段“The excellent distribution (分发) of food is a challenging job to take on all the way down the supply chain. Perhaps this is the main reason that 30-40%of the food in the U. S. is wasted.”(优秀的食品分发是一项具有挑战性的工作,要沿着供应链进行下去。也许这就是美国30% -40%的食物被浪费的主要原因。)可知,食物浪费最严重的阶段是食物分发。故选C项。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。由文章第五段“Adele Peters reports the Google innovation and shares that there is no simple way for food suppliers to let food banks know what they have available, or for food banks to communicate what they need.”(阿黛尔·彼得斯报告了谷歌的创新,并表示,食品供应商没有简单的方式让食物赈济处知道他们有什么可用的食物,或者让食物赈济处传达他们需要什么食物。)和倒数第二段“Emily Ma explains that they set out to create a smarter food system. One that knows in what state the food is, its location, and where best to direct it to. This way, it ensures that it ends up to the people who need it most and not in a landfill.”(艾米丽·马解释说,他们开始创建一个更智能的食物系统。它知道食物处于什么状态,它的位置,以及把它送到哪里最好。这样,它可以确保它最终到达最需要它的人,而不是在垃圾填埋场。)可知,造成食物浪费的原因是缺少沟通。故选B项。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。由文章的第一段“Known as Project Delta, the machine learning program takes into account thousands of variables and different calculations, and the things it would actually take a good team of organizers to manage. It ensures the food is going where it is needed most, where it’s most likely to get eaten, and many other things.”(这个机器学习程序被称为Delta项目,它考虑了数千个变量和不同的计算,以及实际上需要一个优秀的组织者团队来管理的事情。它确保食物被送到最需要的地方,最有可能被吃掉的地方,以及其他许多事情。)和最后一段的第一句“Finally, in a more impressive display of machine learning, special cameras are equipped next to waste bins in Google-facility kitchens.”(最后,在一个更令人印象深刻的机器学习展示中,在谷歌设施厨房的垃圾箱旁边配备了特殊的摄像头。)可知,本文主要介绍谷歌公司正研发减少食物浪费的工具。故选D项。

Playing sports you enjoy can help you meet recommended activity levels. In a 2012 article, Dr. David Geier claimed playing sports was linked to reduced rates of obesity, high blood pressure, diabetes and other poor health conditions. A 2012 Melbourne University summary fact sheet claimed playing sports leads to the healthy growth of bones, muscles and connective tissue in children. It also suggested children who play sports tend to remain more physically active as adults and are less likely to smoke or use drugs.
The social benefits of playing sports last well beyond youth. Team sports offer adults of all ages an opportunity for social interaction. A 2009 study by Asztalos Metal, published in the “Journal of Science and Medicine in Sport” found playing sports reduced stress levels among adults while other forms of physical activity did not.
While your chances of ever making it to the professionals are slim, sports can still lead to career opportunities. You can become a coach or official, and with the right education and experience become part of the sports media. Playing sports could be your ticket to a cheaper education, too. The data-compiling website scholarshipstats.com reported that 177,000 student athletes had some or all of their education paid for in the 2021-22 academic year.
Of course, with any physical activity comes the risk of injury. but some sports are definitely more dangerous than others. In a 2011 survey, the non-profit Safe Kids Worldwide reported that over 1.35 million children sustained sports-related injuries bad enough for a trip to an emergency room. Some sports even carry the risk of potentially dangerous physical problems off the field. Most notable are the eating disorders that have developed among gymnasts and other athletes that need to cut weight for competition.
12. What does the first paragraph mainly tell us?
A. Sports help keep active and healthy. B. Sports reduce stress levels.
C. Sports help gain social benefits. D. Sports help recovery from illness.
13. How can students get a cheaper education by playing sports?
A. They are paid to play sports. B. They can achieve scholarship.
C. They’ll be stronger to study better. D. They can graduate earlier.
14. How is the last paragraph different from the above paragraphs?
A. Telling a new advantage. B. Moving to a summary.
C. Writing in a different tone. D. Giving further explanation.
15. Who is the article intended for?
A. Officials. B. Sportsmen. C. Doctors. D. Kids.
【答案】12. A 13. B 14. C 15. D
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了运动有助于保持活力和健康,同时运动可以有助于青少年社交以及获得更便宜的教育。
【12题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段“Playing sports you enjoy can help you meet recommended activity levels.

A 2012 Melbourne University summary fact sheet claimed playing sports leads to the healthy growth of bones, muscles and connective tissue in children. It also suggested children who play sports tend to remain more physically active as adults and are less likely to smoke or use drugs.(做你喜欢的运动可以帮助你达到推荐的活动量。在2012年的一篇文章中,大卫·盖尔博士声称,运动与降低肥胖、高血压、糖尿病和其他不良健康状况的发病率有关。2012年墨尔本大学的一份概况介绍称,体育运动有助于儿童骨骼、肌肉和结缔组织的健康成长。研究还表明,参加体育运动的儿童成年后往往更活跃,吸烟或吸毒的可能性也更小)”可知,第一段主要告诉我们运动有助于保持活力和健康。故选A。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中“Playing sports could be your ticket to a cheaper education, too. The data-compiling website scholarshipstats.com reported that 177,000 student athletes had some or all of their education paid for in the 2021-22 academic year.(参加体育运动也可能是你获得更便宜教育的门票。数据汇编网站scholarshipstats.com报告称,在2021到22学年,17.7万名学生运动员的部分或全部教育都得到了支付)”可知,学生可以通过获得奖学金,来获得更便宜的教育。故选B。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“Of course, with any physical activity comes the risk of injury. but some sports are definitely more dangerous than others. In a 2011 survey, the non-profit Safe Kids Worldwide reported that over 1.35 million children sustained sports-related injuries bad enough for a trip to an emergency room. Some sports even carry the risk of potentially dangerous physical problems off the field. Most notable are the eating disorders that have developed among gymnasts and other athletes that need to cut weight for competition.(当然,任何体育活动都有受伤的风险。但有些运动肯定比其他运动更危险。在2011年的一项调查中,非营利组织“全球儿童安全”报告称,超过135万名儿童因运动受伤,严重到需要去急诊室。有些运动甚至会在场外引发潜在的身体问题。最值得注意的是在体操运动员和其他需要减肥的运动员中出现的饮食失调)”可推知,最后一段和上面几段的不同在于是用不同的语气写的,强调了体育运动的危险性。故选C。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段中“The social benefits of playing sports last well beyond youth.(从事体育运动的社会效益远远超出了青少年时期)”以及第三段中“While your chances of ever making it to the professionals are slim, sports can still lead to career opportunities.(虽然你成为职业运动员的机会很小,但运动仍然可以带来职业机会)”可推知,文章针对的是孩子。故选D。

I keep a pocket-sized Moleskine notebook with me at all times so I can jot down ideas at a moment’s notice. I occasionally have to pull my car over on the side of the road for a moment to write down an article title or a new product I want to create. Creativity can hit when you least expect it. ___20___
A. Creativity is creating productivity.

第二节(满分25分)
47. 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 was packing lunch for my two children and myself when I suddenly began to doubt whether this was necessary. It was so early in the day it was still dark outside, and I was making sandwiches. I thought about just sending lunch money and getting an extra half hour of sleep. Being a single mom, I needed all the shut-eye I could get.
So why was I adding this stress to my life? It’s all because of genetics (遗传).
I remember my grandmother telling me how, many years ago, she packed leftovers (剩饭) for my grandfather’s lunch. He loved them but always seemed to come home hungry. Finally after much questioning, he admitted he had been giving away half his lunch to a co-worker who had none of his own. From that day forward, my grandmother always sent extra—just in case.
With five kids in school at the same time, my mom didn’t have time to pack lunches. We ate cafeteria food, which was fine with us. In the world of our primary school, it was not cool to bring your lunch from home. There was an exception to the no-pack rule, however. As a punishment, we were forced to bring our own lunch for however many days my mom chose to keep us. My time of suffering came in third grade. I had broken the rules. For four days, my noontime dinner consisted of a cheese and mustard sandwich, a bag of chips and one lonely cookie. By Friday my mom changed her mind. And although I still brought my lunch from home, she packed it for me.
That afternoon I opened my lunchbox to find my favorite egg salad sandwich, a choice apple and a whole giant cake with a note taped on top: “Just in case you want to share.” To my 10-year-old eyes, that cake looked big enough to feed the world. I was in heaven as I offered piece after piece to my friends. It was the best lunch of my life.
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。
As I continued packing lunch for my kids, I thought about my grandmother and mother.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
I emptied my own packed lunch on the table and divided it between the children, then made two more sandwiches.
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】 As I continued packing lunch for my kids, I thought about my grandmother and mother. I never forgot the sacrifice it took for my grandparents to share what little food they had during the Depression. And that my mother continues to do the same. To this day, Thanksgiving at her home always includes at least two guests who are “down on their luck”. None have left her home without a few bucks in their pockets and a grocery bag full of leftovers—just in case they want to share.
I emptied my own packed lunch on the table and divided it between the children, then made two more sandwiches. Although our grocery budget was tight and there was little room for extras, I knew—because of my grandmother and mom—there were others who had much, much less. By sharing the little we had, I was carrying on a tradition that started more than 70 years ago—a lesson of kindness that I could pass on to my own kids. As I dropped a package of noodles into my purse for my new, nod meal, my son and daughter skidded into the kitchen, grabbed their lunches and headed for the door. “I packed extra today,” I called out. “Just in case.”
