One day in Bronx, a first-grade teacher sat down in a barbershop for a trim (修剪) and one of his students walked in, sat down and started looking antsy. He thought to himself that it was a perfect opportunity to practice reading, a thought that changed Alvin Irby’s life, and he’s filling many barbershops around the US with free books to decrease childhood illiteracy (文盲). His non-profit, Barbershop Books, has delivered 50,000 free books to more than 200 barbershops in major black neighborhoods in 24 states, revealing the fact that in Black American communities, barbershops are like community centers where people get together naturally.
Irby’s program may seem straightforward, but there’s a lot of thought behind it. He puts a colorful, kid-sized bookshelf in each shop, making it inviting to children. The books displayed are all carefully chosen based on recommendations from his target audience. The bookshelves display the covers of the books, helping kids who may be interested in reading seize the opportunity for themselves, whether they’re in the barber’s chair or they’re waiting on their dad or friend. And, Irby involves the barbers in his mission—training them to engage kids about reading. “We want them to encourage kids to use the reading spaces,” he said. “Then they can talk to them about how they like reading, how funny a book was, or tell them about another book another kid was reading.”
Denny Moe was the first barber to work with Irby. Moe had previously offered video games at his Harlem shop, to bring in extra income, but he was willing to abandon that to help the community. “I decided to pay it forward by getting rid of the video games, putting books in here, just to get the kids’ minds going” he said. “I want to make an impact.”
“These books, I would say, have power,” 8-year-old boy Chance said. That’s what keeps Irby motivated. “I’m just excited that we get to create a safe space for boys to do something that’s really life changing, “he said. “That’s what I really believe reading is. It unlocks potential.”
4. Why is Irby’s program appealing to children
A. It stimulates children’s efforts. B. It guarantees children’s security.
C. It responds to children’s requests. D. It caters to children’s preferences.
5. What made Denny Moe the first barber to cooperate with Irby
A. His desire to make a big fortune.
B. His ambition to make a difference.
C. His hope of meeting business demands.
D. His motive for attracting more customers.
6. Why does the author mention Chance in the last paragraph
A. To prove Irby’s efforts successful.
B. To stress great importance of books.
C. To show human unlimited potential.
D. To urge children to read more books.
7. What is the real meaning of Irby’s act of kindness
A. Reading can change children’s life.
B. Hairdressers can earn more money.
C. Children are completely independent.
D. Barbershops are good gathering places.
【答案】4. C 5. B 6. A 7. A

He thought to himself that it was a perfect opportunity to practice reading, a thought that changed Alvin Irby’s life, and he’s filling many barbershops around the US with free books to decrease childhood illiteracy (文盲).

【6题详解】
推理判断题。由文章最后一段中““These books, I would say, have power,” 8-year-old boy Chance said. That’s what keeps Irby motivated. “I’m just excited that we get to create a safe space for boys to do something that’s really life changing, “he said. “That’s what I really believe reading is. It unlocks potential.” (“我想说,这些书很有力量,”8岁的男孩吉斯说。这就是让艾比保持动力的原因。他说:“我很兴奋,我们可以为男孩们创造一个安全的空间,让他们做一些真正改变生活的事情。”“这就是我真正认为的阅读。它释放了潜力。”)”可知,证明艾比的努力是成功的。故选A。
【7题详解】

C
It has become common knowledge that our oceans are filled with garbage. Broken objects, used plastic bottles and so on fill our beaches and cover the ocean floor, doing huge damage to ocean creatures. Many individuals and organizations are working to remove this garbage, and recent technological developments have given them a new tool to do so: the trash-eating robot.
Robots of various shapes have been designed to collect garbage that they find floating in the ocean. For example, the French company IADMEEYS has developed what it calls the jellyfishbot. This small robot gathers up everything it meets, including liquid hydrocarbons (碳氢化合物) such as gasoline and oil. The jellyfishbot is remotely controlled and can clean up to 1,000 square meters per hour. The jellyfishbots’ small size and ability to be easily controlled make them ideal for cleaning up crowded areas such as ports.
For larger, more open areas, a much larger robot called the Interceptor has a similar function. Designed for use on rivers, the Interceptor looks like a boat with a conveyor belt (传送带) that picks up trash. Once a sensor indicates that the rubbish bins are full, the Interceptor automatically sends a text message to onshore operators. These operators collect and empty the rubbish bins, sending the garbage to local waste management facilities.
The Interceptor’s name comes from the verb intercept because its purpose is to prevent trash from getting to the ocean. Most of the garbage in the oceans comes down rivers. Cleaning up trash that litters the ocean is good, but to keep the oceans clean, new garbage must be stopped from getting there. Therefore the Interceptor is used to stop pollution before it enters the ocean.
The Interceptor is completely solar-powered and operates on its own, which minimizes the need for human involvement.
Robots are able to clean up large amounts of garbage without humans struggling through beach cleanup by hand. Hopefully, they can be a big part of the solution to ocean pollution.
8. What’s the purpose of the first paragraph
A. To introduce the background.
B. To set the readers reflecting.
C. To state the writer ‘s intention.
D. To give supporting details.
9. What do the jellyfishbot and the Interceptor have in common
A. They need no human operation.
B. They can clean up crowded ports.
C. They are both solar-powered.
D. They are controlled in the distance.
10. Which of the following has the same meaning as “intercept” in paragraph 4
A. Stop. B. Check. C. Sort. D. Collect.
11. What is an advantage of trash-eating robots
A. They collect all the garbage.
B. They save much human labor.
C. They get rid of water pollution.
D. They empty the rubbish bins.
【答案】8. A 9. D 10. A 11. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文,主要介绍的是处理海洋垃圾的机器人的相关情况。
【8题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段的“It has become common knowledge that our oceans are filled with garbage. Broken objects, used plastic bottles and so on fill our beaches and cover the ocean floor, doing huge damage to ocean creatures. Many individuals and organizations are working to remove this garbage, and recent technological developments have given them a new tool to do so: the trash-eating robot.(我们的海洋充满了垃圾,这已成为常识。破碎的物体,用过的塑料瓶等等填满了我们的海滩,覆盖了海底,对海洋生物造成了巨大的损害。许多个人和组织都在努力清除这些垃圾,最近的技术发展为他们提供了一种新的工具:吃垃圾机器人。)”可知,第一段的目的是介绍背景。故选A。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段的“The jellyfishbot is remotely controlled(这个水母机器人是远程控制的)”和第三段的“Once a sensor indicates that the rubbish bins are full, the Interceptor automatically sends a text message to onshore operators. These operators collect and empty the rubbish bins, sending the garbage to local waste management facilities.(一旦传感器显示垃圾桶已满,拦截器就会自动向岸上操作人员发送信息。这些操作人员收集并清空垃圾桶,将垃圾送到当地的垃圾管理设施。)”可知,水母机器人和拦截器的共同点在于它们都是远程控制的,故选D。
【10题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第四段的“because its purpose is to prevent trash from getting to the ocean(因为它的目的是防止垃圾进入海洋)”可知,划线词所在的句子的意思是“拦截器的名字来源于动词拦截,因为它的目的是防止垃圾进入海洋”,因此intercept的意思是“防止,阻止”,和stop意思相近,故选A。
【11题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段的“Robots are able to clean up large amounts of garbage without humans struggling through beach cleanup by hand.(机器人能够清理大量垃圾,而不需要人工费力地清理海滩。)”可知,处理垃圾的机器人的优点是它们节省了很多人力。故选B。
D
Climate change and land-use change are projected to make wildfires more frequent and intense, with a global increase of extreme fires of up to 14 per cent by 2030, 30 per cent by the end of 2050 and 50 per cent by the end of the century, according to a new report by the UN Environment Programme (UNEP) and GRID-Arendal.
The paper calls for a complete change in government spending on wildfires, changing their investments from reaction and response to prevention and preparedness.
The report, Spreading like Wildfire: The Rising Threat of Extraordinary Landscape Fires, finds a higher risk even for the Arctic and other regions previously unaffected by wildfires. The report had been released before representatives of 193 nations held a meeting in Nairobi for the restarted 5th session of the UN Environment Assembly (UNEA-5.2), between 28 February and 2 March, 2022.
The publication calls on governments to adopt a new “Fire Ready Formula” with two-thirds of spending devoted to planning, prevention, preparedness, and recovery, with one third left for response. Currently, direct responses to wildfires typically receive over hall of related cost, while planning and prevention receive less than one per cent.
To prevent fires, authors call for a combination of data and science-based monitoring systems with native knowledge and for a stronger regional and international cooperation.
“Current government responses to wildfires are often putting money in the wrong place. Those emergency service workers and firefighters on the frontlines who are risking their lives to fight forest wildfires need to be supported. We have to reduce the risk of extreme wildfires by being better prepared: invest more in fire risk reduction, work with local communities, and strengthen global commitment to fight climate change.” said Inger Andersen, UNEP Executive Director.
Wildfires disproportionately (不成比例地) affect the world’s poorest nations. With an impact that extends for days, weeks and even years after the flames die down, they block progress towards the UN Sustainable Development Coals and deepen social inequalities.
12. What does the paper appeal to the government to do with wildfires
A. Invest more money on forecast.
B. Give advanced warning to wild animals
C. Focus on the act of stopping them from happening,
D. Plant more tress to make up for the loss of forests.
13. What’s Inger Andersen’s attitude towards the current government’s measure
A. Supportive. B. Critical. C. Unfair. D. Unconcerned.
14. What is the author likely to talk about next
A. The areas hit by climate change.
B. The names of the world’s poorest nations.
C. The relationship between wildfires and health.
D. The bad effects of wildfires on different fields.
15. What is the main idea of the text
A. Wildfires are spreading worldwide.
B. The UN held a meeting to discuss wildfires.
C. Governments should prepare themselves for wildfires.
D. The UNEP Executive Director released a report on wildfires.
【答案】12. C 13. B 14. D 15. C
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了联合国环境规划署发布了一项报告,呼吁政府要注重对野火的防范。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“The paper calls for a complete change in government spending on wildfires, changing their investments from reaction and response to prevention and preparedness. (该文件呼吁彻底改变政府在野火方面的支出,将其投资从反应和应对改为预防和准备。)”可知,这份文件呼吁政府注重对野火的防范。故选C。
【13题详解】
推理判断题。根据第六段““Current government responses to wildfires are often putting money in the wrong place. Those emergency service workers and firefighters on the frontlines who are risking their lives to fight forest wildfires need to be supported. We have to reduce the risk of extreme wildfires by being better prepared: invest more in fire risk reduction, work with local communities, and strengthen global commitment to fight climate change.” said Inger Andersen, UNEP Executive Director. (执行主任Inger Andersen说,“当前政府对野火的应对措施经常把钱放错地方。需要支持那些冒着生命危险扑灭森林野火的一线应急服务人员和消防员。我们必须做好更好的准备,以减少极端野火的风险:在减少火灾风险方面加大投资,与当地社区合作,并加强全球承诺联合国环境规划署。)”可知,Inger Andersen认为当前政府对野火的应对措施往往是把钱用在了错误的地方。故Inger Andersen对目前政府所采取的措施持批评的态度。故选B。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“Wildfires disproportionately(不成比例地) affect the world's poorest nations. With an impact that extends for days, weeks and even years after the flames die down, they block progress towards the Sustainable Development Goals and deepen social inequalities in some fields. (野火不成比例地影响着世界上最贫穷国家。火焰熄灭后,其影响持续数天、数周甚至数年,阻碍了实现可持续发展目标的进展,加深了某些领域的社会不平等。)”可知,野火不成比例地影响世界上最贫困的国家,阻碍可持续发展目标的进展,并加剧社会某些领域的不平等。由此可推断,作者接下来很可能会谈论野火对不同领域所造成的不良影响。故选D。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段“Climate change and land-use change are projected to make wildfires more frequent and intense, with a global increase of extreme fires of up to 14 per cent by 2030, 30 per cent by the end of 2050 and 50 per cent by the end of the century, according to a new report by the UN Environment Programme (UNEP) and GRID-Arendal. (根据联合国环境规划署和全球资源信息数据库阿伦达尔的一份新报告,预计气候变化和土地使用变化将使野火更加频繁和强烈,到2030年全球极端火灾增加多达14%,到2050年底增加30%,到本世纪末增加50%)”以及第二段“The paper calls for a complete change in government spending on wildfires, changing their investments from reaction and response to prevention and preparedness. (该文件呼吁彻底改变政府在野火方面的支出,将其投资从反应和应对改为预防和准备。)”可知,文章介绍了联合国环境规划署发布的一项报告,旨在呼吁政府要注重对野火的防范。故选C。

【20题详解】
根据空前内容“Winning is fun! It is the reward for your hard work. When we participate in a sport that keeps score, it is our responsibility to the team to do our best to win within the rules of the game and within the spirit of the game.(获胜很有趣!这是对你辛勤工作的奖励。当我们参加一项记分的运动时,我们有责任在比赛规则和比赛精神的范围内尽我们最大的努力赢得比赛。)”可知,上文讲述的是赢得比赛确实很有趣。选项G“But winning becomes a negative when it is a team’s only goal.(但是当胜利是团队唯一的目标时,胜利就变成了消极的东西。)”则再次指出,比赛中获胜并不是最重要的。与本文主题相一致,指的是要有良好的体育精神。故选G。

【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文,主要介绍的是汉服的相关情况。
【36题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:汉的历史可以追溯到几千年前,汉族的传统服装被称为汉服,其魅力也蓬勃发展了几个世纪。句中谓语是has,空格处用非谓语动词,history和date之间是主谓关系,因此空格处用现在分词作后置定语,故填dating。
【37题详解】
考查定语从句。句意:汉的历史可以追溯到几千年前,汉族的传统服装被称为汉服,其魅力也蓬勃发展了几个世纪。空格处引导的是非限制性定语从句,Hanfu和charm之间是所属关系,因此空格处用关系代词whose引导定语从句,故填whose。
【38题详解】
考查冠词。句意:汉服是中华文明的重要载体,以礼仪为核心。carrier是可数名词的单数形式,表泛指,前面要加不定冠词,important是元音音素开头,因此不定冠词用an,故填an。
【39题详解】
考查固定搭配。句意:汉服不仅体现了中国人的审美情趣,而且体现了礼仪、宗教和文化的独特意义。not only...but (also)...是固定搭配,意为“不仅……而且……”,因此空格处是but,故填but。
【40题详解】
考查宾语从句。句意:只要人们穿上汉服,他们就应该按照“礼仪”系统的要求行事。空格处引导的是宾语从句,从句中缺少宾语,此处表示“只要人们穿上汉服,他们就应该按照“礼仪”系统的要求行事”,因此空格处用what引导宾语从句,故填what。
【41题详解】
考查代词。句意:一种是上下分开的,另一种是连体衣,把上下衣服连在一起。空格处用one指代前面的type,表示“一种是上下分开的”,与后文的the other相呼应。位于句首,首字母大写,故填One。
【42题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:汉服上描绘的阴阳和世间万物,深刻地反映了中国古人对宇宙和自然的认识。句中谓语是reflect,空格处用非谓语动词,The Yin-Yang and all the subjects和picture之间是逻辑动宾关系,因此空格处用过去分词作后置定语,故填pictured。
【43题详解】
考查介词。句意:近年来,随着人们对传统文化的热情日益高涨,在旅行或聚会中穿汉服已成为年轻人的一种新趋势。此处表示“随着人们对传统文化的热情日益高涨”,空格处用with表伴随,是with复合结构,故填with。
【44题详解】
考查时态和主谓一致。句意:近年来,随着人们对传统文化的热情日益高涨,在旅行或聚会中穿汉服已成为年轻人的一种新趋势。由In recent years可知,句子时态用现在完成时,主语wearing是动名词,谓语动词用单数,因此空格处是has become。故填has become。
【45题详解】
考查名词。句意:汉服的复兴是当代人对中国服饰之美的新探索,也代表了年轻一代对传统文化价值的新认识。new是形容词,修饰名词,recognize的名词是recognition,意为“认识”,是不可数名词,故填recognition。
第三节 单词填空 (共 10 小题; 每小题 1.5 分,满分 15 分)

47. Instead of giving people money, a possible c________for the problem of poverty is education. (根据首字母单词拼写)
【答案】cure##ure
【解析】

One day in Bronx, a first-grade teacher sat down in a barbershop for a trim (修剪) and one of his students walked in, sat down and started looking antsy. He thought to himself that it was a perfect opportunity to practice reading, a thought that changed Alvin Irby’s life, and he’s filling many barbershops around the US with free books to decrease childhood illiteracy (文盲). His non-profit, Barbershop Books, has delivered 50,000 free books to more than 200 barbershops in major black neighborhoods in 24 states, revealing the fact that in Black American communities, barbershops are like community centers where people get together naturally.
Irby’s program may seem straightforward, but there’s a lot of thought behind it. He puts a colorful, kid-sized bookshelf in each shop, making it inviting to children. The books displayed are all carefully chosen based on recommendations from his target audience. The bookshelves display the covers of the books, helping kids who may be interested in reading seize the opportunity for themselves, whether they’re in the barber’s chair or they’re waiting on their dad or friend. And, Irby involves the barbers in his mission—training them to engage kids about reading. “We want them to encourage kids to use the reading spaces,” he said. “Then they can talk to them about how they like reading, how funny a book was, or tell them about another book another kid was reading.”
Denny Moe was the first barber to work with Irby. Moe had previously offered video games at his Harlem shop, to bring in extra income, but he was willing to abandon that to help the community. “I decided to pay it forward by getting rid of the video games, putting books in here, just to get the kids’ minds going” he said. “I want to make an impact.”
“These books, I would say, have power,” 8-year-old boy Chance said. That’s what keeps Irby motivated. “I’m just excited that we get to create a safe space for boys to do something that’s really life changing, “he said. “That’s what I really believe reading is. It unlocks potential.”
4. Why is Irby’s program appealing to children
A. It stimulates children’s efforts. B. It guarantees children’s security.
C. It responds to children’s requests. D. It caters to children’s preferences.
5. What made Denny Moe the first barber to cooperate with Irby
A. His desire to make a big fortune.
B. His ambition to make a difference.
C. His hope of meeting business demands.
D. His motive for attracting more customers.
6 Why does the author mention Chance in the last paragraph
A. To prove Irby’s efforts successful.
B. To stress great importance of books.
C. To show human unlimited potential.
D. To urge children to read more books.
7. What is the real meaning of Irby’s act of kindness
A. Reading can change children’s life.
B. Hairdressers can earn more money.
C. Children are completely independent.
D. Barbershops are good gathering places.
C
It has become common knowledge that our oceans are filled with garbage. Broken objects, used plastic bottles and so on fill our beaches and cover the ocean floor, doing huge damage to ocean creatures. Many individuals and organizations are working to remove this garbage, and recent technological developments have given them a new tool to do so: the trash-eating robot.
Robots of various shapes have been designed to collect garbage that they find floating in the ocean. For example, the French company IADMEEYS has developed what it calls the jellyfishbot. This small robot gathers up everything it meets, including liquid hydrocarbons (碳氢化合物) such as gasoline and oil. The jellyfishbot is remotely controlled and can clean up to 1,000 square meters per hour. The jellyfishbots’ small size and ability to be easily controlled make them ideal for cleaning up crowded areas such as ports.
For larger, more open areas, a much larger robot called the Interceptor has a similar function. Designed for use on rivers, the Interceptor looks like a boat with a conveyor belt (传送带) that picks up trash. Once a sensor indicates that the rubbish bins are full, the Interceptor automatically sends a text message to onshore operators. These operators collect and empty the rubbish bins, sending the garbage to local waste management facilities.
The Interceptor’s name comes from the verb intercept because its purpose is to prevent trash from getting to the ocean. Most of the garbage in the oceans comes down rivers. Cleaning up trash that litters the ocean is good, but to keep the oceans clean, new garbage must be stopped from getting there. Therefore the Interceptor is used to stop pollution before it enters the ocean.
The Interceptor is completely solar-powered and operates on its own, which minimizes the need for human involvement.
Robots are able to clean up large amounts of garbage without humans struggling through beach cleanup by hand. Hopefully, they can be a big part of the solution to ocean pollution.

9. What do the jellyfishbot and the Interceptor have in common
A. They need no human operation.
B. They can clean up crowded ports.
C. They are both solar-powered.
D. They are controlled in the distance.
10. Which of the following has the same meaning as “intercept” in paragraph 4
A. Stop. B. Check. C. Sort. D. Collect.
11. What is an advantage of trash-eating robots
A. They collect all the garbage.
B. They save much human labor.
C. They get rid of water pollution.
D. They empty the rubbish bins.
D
Climate change and land-use change are projected to make wildfires more frequent and intense, with a global increase of extreme fires of up to 14 per cent by 2030, 30 per cent by the end of 2050 and 50 per cent by the end of the century, according to a new report by the UN Environment Programme (UNEP) and GRID-Arendal.
The paper calls for a complete change in government spending on wildfires, changing their investments from reaction and response to prevention and preparedness.
The report, Spreading like Wildfire: The Rising Threat of Extraordinary Landscape Fires, finds a higher risk even for the Arctic and other regions previously unaffected by wildfires. The report had been released before representatives of 193 nations held a meeting in Nairobi for the restarted 5th session of the UN Environment Assembly (UNEA-5.2), between 28 February and 2 March, 2022.
The publication calls on governments to adopt a new “Fire Ready Formula” with two-thirds of spending devoted to planning, prevention, preparedness, and recovery, with one third left for response. Currently, direct responses to wildfires typically receive over hall of related cost, while planning and prevention receive less than one per cent.
To prevent fires, authors call for a combination of data and science-based monitoring systems with native knowledge and for a stronger regional and international cooperation.
“Current government responses to wildfires are often putting money in the wrong place. Those emergency service workers and firefighters on the frontlines who are risking their lives to fight forest wildfires need to be supported. We have to reduce the risk of extreme wildfires by being better prepared: invest more in fire risk reduction, work with local communities, and strengthen global commitment to fight climate change.” said Inger Andersen, UNEP Executive Director.
Wildfires disproportionately (不成比例地) affect the world’s poorest nations. With an impact that extends for days, weeks and even years after the flames die down, they block progress towards the UN Sustainable Development Coals and deepen social inequalities.
12. What does the paper appeal to the government to do with wildfires
A. Invest more money on forecast.
B. Give advanced warning to wild animals
C. Focus on the act of stopping them from happening,
D. Plant more tress to make up for the loss of forests.
13. What’s Inger Andersen’s attitude towards the current government’s measure
A. Supportive. B. Critical. C. Unfair. D. Unconcerned.
14. What is the author likely to talk about next
A. The areas hit by climate change.
B. The names of the world’s poorest nations.
C. The relationship between wildfires and health.
D. The bad effects of wildfires on different fields.
15. What is the main idea of the text
A. Wildfires are spreading worldwide.
B. The UN held a meeting to discuss wildfires.
C. Governments should prepare themselves for wildfires.
D. The UNEP Executive Director released a report on wildfires.
