There's no shortage of health food trends on TikTok, but which ones are actually sensible And should you skip any of them altogether We asked registered dietitian Vanessa Rissetto, and here's what you need to know.
Emily Mariko's Salmon Bowl
Made with rice, baked salmon, soy sauce and spicy mayo—and to be clear, there are a lot of different variations of it online—this passes Rissetto's test because it's healthy, fast, easy and has good flavor.
Rissetto says that while she would recommend this recipe, she would also suggest changing the white rice for brown rice for increased nutrients and more fiber.
Healthy Cookie Dough
Cookie dough that's healthy This is too good to be true, right The answer is probably yes.
Rissctto says that while this may be healthy, it probably doesn't taste good.
"I'm certain this tastes like cardboard, "she said."If you don't care about taste—then this is for you. "
Lettuce Water For Sleep
While harmless, the TikTok trend of pouring boiling water over romaine lettuce leaves to make
"lettuce water" for better sleep probably won't cure your sleep disorder—and it probably doesn't taste great, either.
"This is not a thing. There's no evidence to prove it, "Rissetto said. "Instead, steep a banana peel in boiling water to help aid with sleep. "
Nature's Cereal
As Rissetto points out, it's basically a fruit smoothie bowl.
"I am all for having berries and coconut water, "she said." Nutrition-wise, this has lots of vitamins, antioxidants and fiber. It's basically a fruit salad that would be super refreshing on a hot day or post-workout"
21．What is special about Emily Mariko's salmon bowl
A．It doesn't taste great. B．It is good for health.
C．Its recipe is not fixed. D．It uses two kinds of rice.
22．Which recipe doesn't Rissetto recommend
A．Emily Mariko's salmon bowl. B．Healthy cookie dough.
C．Lettuce water for sleep. D．Nature's cereal.
23．Which food suits you best after playing a football match
A．Emily Mariko's salmon bowl B．Healthy cookie dough.
C．Lettuce water for sleep. D．Nature's cereal.
（2023高三下·扬州开学考）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。
Andy Kong has worked very hard to get to
where he is today. He credits becoming a millionaire by 20 to his strict Asian
parents who tutored him at a young age by working for the family.
Kong, of Danville, Virginia, started
working when he was only nine. English wasn't a strong suit for Andy's parents,
and that's where he was able to assist his family the most. After school and on
weekends he would help out at their family-owned restaurant and nail salons.
Not only did he do the labor work, but he was also involved in creating online ads.
This was his introduction to the world of online business.
Andy started his Amazon business in the
eighth grade. When he learned about Amazon
Dropshipping(代发货模式) from a kid he saw on Instagram, he got inspired and decided to
give it a try. Unfortunately, the store eventually got shut down because he was
impatient with the growth. Instead of considering it a failure, he viewed this
experience as a life lesson and learned from his mistakes. Meanwhile, his
parents never stopped trying to talk him into focusing on school and their
retail business.
"The biggest challenge when starting
a business is getting someone to believe in you, "Andy says. He pushed
through and did things for himself even when his loved ones discouraged it.
In 2019, Andy met his now business
partners, and together, they created an Amazon management company called
Project WiFi. This Project has proven to be extremely successful. They
currently help over 55 clients run their online businesses, and plan to help
many more in the future.
When asked about the secret to his
success, Andy says, "Learning to sacrifice whether that's family, friends,
or soccer game for a single goal is the only way to succeed, rather than
attempting multiple things. If it's worth doing then it's worth doing well with
no shortcuts. "
24．Why did Andy work in his parents' shops at a young age
A．Because he could earn some pocket money.
B．Because his parents weren't fluent in English.

A．A new online business model. B．Results of working impatiently.

A．Committed and generous. B．Motivated and open-minded.

（2023高三下·扬州开学考）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。
Today, the Vikings are mostly known as
violent pirates(海盗). But they were also
traders. At their height, the Vikings attacked, settled or traded on four
continents.
All of their travel, trade and warfare
were made possible by Viking ships, which were far more advanced than anything else
sailing around Europe at the time. The most famous, and most feared, was the drekar.
At sea, these ships could move quickly thanks to their large sails . The hulls
(船体)of the ships were shallow and fat,
which made them ride high in the water. The ships were also light enough that
they could be carried from one body of water to another over short sections of
land. This greatly extended their range.
But Viking ships weren't just built for
warfare. Another type, called the knarr,
had cargo(货物) holds built in the hull.
One such cargo ship was capable of carrying 24 tons. The knarrs would have
looked similar to the drekars except they were longer, fatter and taller. These
were the backbones of the Viking empire, which they used to carry everything
from gold coins to spices and fine fabrics.
Both the drekar and the knarr were built
using the same method. Traditionally, oceangoing ships have used a keel(龙骨), shaped like the fin of a fish . The keel sinks into the water
below the hull. It helps the ship maintain a straight line through the water
and counters the force of the wind against the sail, which otherwise might blow
the ship over. Viking ships had no deep keel. Instead, they were built fat
enough to carry lots of soldiers or pieces of cargo whose weight helped keep the
ship planted in the water.
Viking ships were so advanced for their
tine that they often were the biggest, tallest and most striking ships many
people had ever seen, A monk at the St. Omar Monastery, in Franco, wrote this
description of a royal Viking ship in 1013.
"On
one side lions molded in gold were to be seen on the ships, on the other birds
on the tops of the poles indicated by their movements the winds as they blew …
."
The Vikings built a wealthy empire
through trade as well as robbery and used their wealth to continuously improve
their ships.
28．What does the author intend to tell us
A．The Vikings were not violent pirates. but traders.
B．The Vikings used to take a lead in the world trade.
C．Viking ships could carry more cargo than ships today.
D．Viking ships contributed to the extension of their empire.
29．What can we infer about the knarrs
A．They were not designed for warfare.
B．They were faster than the drekars.
C．They were designed to carry soldiers.
D．They served the same purpose as drekars.
30．What do the Vikings' ships and the traditional oceangoing ships have in common
A．They both use a deep keel shaped like the fin of a fish.
B．They both make the hull shallow and fat with large sails.
C．They both take measures to keep the ship planted in water.
D．They both install something to counter the force of wind.
31．Why does the author refer to a monk's description of a Viking ship
A．To show how advanced Viking ships were for their time.
B．To show how interested the monk was in traveling by sea.
C．To show that Viking ships were designed in a strange way.
D．To show that Viking ships were continuously improved.

Every language and culture has curse
words(脏话). What gives a curse word
its power is partly its meaning and partly its sound. "In English, for
example, curse words tend to contain a high percentage of plosive
sounds—including P, T and K, "said Ryan McKay, a psychologist at
University of London.
Dr. McKay teamed up with his colleague
Shiri Lev-Ari to learn whether this familiar pattern went beyond English. They
wondered whether it might even represent what's called sound symbolism. Sound
symbolism is when a word sounds like what it means.
The researchers first asked fluent
speakers of Hebrew, Hindi, Hungarian, Korean and Russian to list the most
vulgar(粗俗的) words they could think
of. Once they'd made a list of each language's most frequently used curse words,
the researchers compared these with neutral words from the same language. In
these languages, they didn't find the plosive sounds that seem common in
English curse words. "Instead, we found that the vulgar words were defined
by what they lacked: the approximant sounds that include letters I, L, R, W and
Y, "Dr. Lev-Ari said.
Next, the scientists invited 215 native
speakers of six languages: Arabic, Chinese, Finnish, French, German and
Spanish. The participants listened to pairs of words in a language they didn't
speak, and guessed which word in each pair was offensive. In reality, all the
words were invented. For example, the researchers started with the Albanian
word "zog," for "bird, "and created the pair of fake words "yog"
and "tsog."Participants were more likely to guess that words without
approximants, such as "tsog," were curses.
Finally, the researchers combed through
the dictionary for English curse words and their cleaned-up versions. Once
again, the clean versions included more of the sounds I, L, R, W and Y.
A 20th-century linguistic(语言学的)principle claimed that the sounds of words were arbitrary: Any word
could have any meaning. With curse words, though, as in other cases of sound
symbolism, "the sounds themselves seem to carry meaning, "said
Lev-Ari." That's a new thing, "said linguist Benjamin Bergen." Curse
words across languages, unrelated to each other, may pattern similarly. "He
also pointed out, to make sure the pattern of approximants missing from curses
isn't an accident, it would be nice to find it in an even larger sample of
languages.
32．What is the purpose of McKay and Lev-Ari's research
A．To analyze a phenomenon. B．To confirm an assumption.
C．To explain a definition. D．To challenge a theory.
33．What were the participants asked to do in the second part of the research
A．To decide which curse words are used more frequently.
B．To make up new curse words from real words.
C．To guess a word's offensiveness according to its sound.
D．To identify the approximants in curse words.
34．According to Lev-Ari, which of the four is likely to sound offensive
A．tusck B．sola C．darn D．biach
35．What can we learn from the last paragraph
A．The old linguistic principle of sounds and meanings is wrong.
B．In sound symbolism, a word's sound represents its meaning.
C．The research reveals the similarities between different languages.
D．The result of the research is not fully accepted by scientists.

In theory, modern smartphones can last hundreds of hours on a single charge. 　36． 　
Manufacturers love to use laboratory conditions to advertise great numbers, most of which don't match real-world use. Here we have some saving tricks that actually work.
Delete apps you don't use. On average, smartphone users download about 42 apps but use only ten daily. An easy way to preserve battery life 　37． 　 Deleting an app that you don't use is a simple way to free up storage space on your device and reduce the burden of your battery.
　38． 　A phone's single biggest battery drain is the fact that it takes a lot of energy to keep your phone's screen lit up, and we often leave it on accidentally, even if we're not looking at the screen. The solution is to set your device to turn off its screen after 30 seconds or a minute.
Dim the screen. Viewing your phone's millions of pixels at full brightness is a guaranteed battery drain. Even your phone's auto-brightness feature will sometimes overdo it, meaning you could be losing precious hours of battery life. Try dimming your display a little at a time. 　39． 　
Go ahead and charge it. You've probably heard the classic advice about charging batteries: Let your battery drain all the way, then charge to 100 percent and repeat. The idea is that you are teaching your battery to "remember" its full charge capacity, rather than confusing it with periodic, inconsistent charges. 　40． 　 So instead of running out the door with 50 percent juice, consider plugging in your phone for 15 minutes before you leave.
A. Get rid of the others. B. Decrease display time. C. But it's not the case in practice. D. Turn off the ones that you don't use. E. You'll be surprised how quickly your eyes adjust. F. It doesn't consume as much battery power as we think. G. Actually most smartphone batteries don't need special treatment.

I was twenty then, teaching a class of thirty students in Toronto including Mike, a 10-year-old street kid. Having lost his father and mother, he lived with a mentally-disturbed grandmother.
He was always hungry, so each day I'd take him for breakfast before class. Each noon after I shared my lunch with him, I taught him new skills—using a microscope, constructing a camera etc.
One day Mike told me of his dream. Most kids in the class wanted to be doctors, teachers or some such thing, but not Mike! His desire was to be a gangster(强盗)!And he was serious about it.
I believed all children had a gift for what he wanted to be. If he wanted to be a gangster, I'd do all I could to help him become the very best "gangster".
I had a plan. Every Saturday after we had breakfast, I took him to the Law Library of the city. I explained to him a good gangster had to know something about criminal law, and reading up on law was the only way to learn. His young mind was interested, and he dove in.
That was how we spent each Saturday morning that year. I'd drop him off at the law library. Three hours later, I'd return, pick him up for lunch and after a review of his morning's work, take him home.
The following year I taught in another school far away, which prevented me continuing to participate physically with him on Saturday mornings. But I provided him with public transportation tickets so he could keep up his regular study at the library.
Later I got married and moved to London. Sadly, and to my great regret, I lost contact with Mike.
Years passed. I often thought of him, wondering what had become of him. Then, one day, I was back in Toronto on business, looking up the number of a former colleague in the telephone directory, and there, Mike's name as part of a title of "JUDGES and LAWYERS" danced off the page into my eyes.
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。
I wondered, "Could it be him "
When we were able to get together, he told me his road to the law.

【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了法国 baguette 的历史和文化内涵。
【点评】考查语法填空。本题考点涉及连词、谓语动词、名词、非谓语动词、定语从句、比较级、形容词性物主代词、介词和冠词等知识点的考查。要求考生在理解细节信息的基础上，进一步根据上下文的逻辑关系，并结合相关语法知识，进行分析推理，从而写出正确的单词形式。
56．句意：但这种传统食物不仅仅是零食;法棍是法国文化的重要组成部分。根据空格后的“ this traditional food isn't just a snack; the baguette is an important part of French culture这种传统食物不仅仅是零食;法棍是法国文化的重要组成部分”，可知空格后与之前的句子意思相反，是转折关系，故答案为But/Yet。
57．句意：根据一个传说，法棍是由奥地利的一位面包师在1839年将蒸汽炉引入法国后发明的。根据句意，结合空格后的“by a baker”和“in 1839”，可知此处应是一般过去时态的被动语态的谓语动词，故答案为was created。
58．句意：整个19世纪，法棍在法国越来越受欢迎。空格前的介词in后需要宾语，即popular的名词形式，故答案为popularity。
59．句意：这些长约两米的法棍由快递员携带，她们把它们像柴火一样堆在背上。非谓语动词作状语，需要注意非谓语动词和句子主语之间的关系，如果两者之间主动、进行的关系，句中，句子主语these baguette和非谓语动词measure是主动关系，所以应使用V-ing形式，故答案为Measuring。
60．句意：当这些巨大的法棍面包端上来时，通常是沿着餐桌摆放的，因为它们太长了，不适合餐桌的宽度！状语从句的省略，需要注意主句主语和状语从句中非谓语动词的关系，如果两者构成被动、完成的关系，则应使用过去分词；句中，主句主语these huge baguettes与状语从句中的非谓语动词serve（意“给……提供，端上食物”）构成被动关系，故答案为served。
61．句意：虽然这种面包的历史可以追溯到19世纪，但baguette这个词直到20世纪20年代才被广泛使用，当时一项新法律禁止面包师在凌晨4点之前工作。定语从句的先行词是1920s，表示时间，且空格后的句子意思和语法结构都完整，故答案为when。
62．句意：这项法律出台后，面包师们开始将面包制作成又长又薄的形状，这样面包烤得更快，可以及时用作早餐。根据空格前的“making bread with a long, thin shape把面包做成长薄的形状”和空格后的“be ready in time for breakfast及时准备好早饭”，可知烤制面包的速度会更快，故答案为faster。
63．句意：吃法棍有自己的一套习俗。固定搭配“形容词性物主代词+own+名词”表示“某人自己的……”，故答案为its。
64．句意：用餐时，法棍通常用手掰开，而不是用刀切成薄片。根据空格前的“broken apart by hand用手掰开”，可知空格处应是“不是用刀子切片”，故答案为with。
65．句意：不管你喜欢吃什么，记住你吃的不只是面包，你吃的是法国的象征！根据句意，可知文中把baguette看作是法国的一种象征，表示泛指，故答案为a。

67．【答案】 I wondered, "Could it be him " I dialed the number, gave my full name to a secretary and was put on hold. A long fifteen seconds later, a gentleman was on the line. His opening statement was, "Mr. Kowal (or whatever), I've really … missed you." Then there was silence. Tears welling up in my eyes, I blurted out between sobs, "Mike, I only wish I'd kept in touch with you all these years. I'm really proud of you." In a trembling voice on the other side, Mike answered, "I wouldn't be here now if it weren't for you."
When we were able to get together, he told me his road to the law. Studying law in the library enabled him to explore his inner depths—the "gangster" he had wanted to be was something of a hero protecting the disadvantaged with knowledge. He studied all the way to the law university while working part-time for his education fees. Now he had risen to be one of the most successful criminal lawyers in Canada. He owed all to me while I thought the greatest good we teachers could do for the students was to assist in revealing the best of their own.
【知识点】读后续写

There's no shortage of health food trends on TikTok, but which ones are actually sensible And should you skip any of them altogether We asked registered dietitian Vanessa Rissetto, and here's what you need to know.
Emily Mariko's Salmon Bowl
Made with rice, baked salmon, soy sauce and spicy mayo—and to be clear, there are a lot of different variations of it online—this passes Rissetto's test because it's healthy, fast, easy and has good flavor.
Rissetto says that while she would recommend this recipe, she would also suggest changing the white rice for brown rice for increased nutrients and more fiber.
Healthy Cookie Dough
Cookie dough that's healthy This is too good to be true, right The answer is probably yes.
Rissctto says that while this may be healthy, it probably doesn't taste good.
"I'm certain this tastes like cardboard, "she said."If you don't care about taste—then this is for you. "
Lettuce Water For Sleep
While harmless, the TikTok trend of pouring boiling water over romaine lettuce leaves to make
"lettuce water" for better sleep probably won't cure your sleep disorder—and it probably doesn't taste great, either.
"This is not a thing. There's no evidence to prove it, "Rissetto said. "Instead, steep a banana peel in boiling water to help aid with sleep. "
Nature's Cereal
As Rissetto points out, it's basically a fruit smoothie bowl.
"I am all for having berries and coconut water, "she said." Nutrition-wise, this has lots of vitamins, antioxidants and fiber. It's basically a fruit salad that would be super refreshing on a hot day or post-workout"
21．What is special about Emily Mariko's salmon bowl
A．It doesn't taste great. B．It is good for health.
C．Its recipe is not fixed. D．It uses two kinds of rice.
22．Which recipe doesn't Rissetto recommend
A．Emily Mariko's salmon bowl. B．Healthy cookie dough.
C．Lettuce water for sleep. D．Nature's cereal.
23．Which food suits you best after playing a football match
A．Emily Mariko's salmon bowl B．Healthy cookie dough.
C．Lettuce water for sleep. D．Nature's cereal.

【点评】考查阅读理解。本文涉及细节题题型，细节题要注意通过关键词从文中寻找答案。
21．细节题。根据第一个标题下的“ there are a lot of different variations of it online网上有很多不同的版本”，可知它的配方不是固定的，故选C。
22．细节题。根据第三个标题下的“While harmless, the TikTok trend of pouring boiling water over romaine lettuce leaves to make "lettuce water" for better sleep probably won't cure your sleep disorder—and it probably doesn't taste great, either虽然无害，但TikTok上的一种趋势是把沸水倒在长叶莴苣叶子上改善睡眠的“生菜水”可能并不能治愈你的睡眠障碍，而且它的味道可能也不怎么样”，可知 Lettuce Water For Sleep 是作者不推荐的，故选C。
23．细节题。根据最后一个标题下的“It's basically a fruit salad that would be super refreshing on a hot day or post-workout它基本上是一种水果沙拉，在大热天或锻炼后会非常清爽”，可知Nature's Cereal最适合运动后使用，故选D。

Andy Kong has worked very hard to get to
where he is today. He credits becoming a millionaire by 20 to his strict Asian
parents who tutored him at a young age by working for the family.
Kong, of Danville, Virginia, started
working when he was only nine. English wasn't a strong suit for Andy's parents,
and that's where he was able to assist his family the most. After school and on
weekends he would help out at their family-owned restaurant and nail salons.
Not only did he do the labor work, but he was also involved in creating online ads.
This was his introduction to the world of online business.
Andy started his Amazon business in the
eighth grade. When he learned about Amazon
Dropshipping(代发货模式) from a kid he saw on Instagram, he got inspired and decided to
give it a try. Unfortunately, the store eventually got shut down because he was
impatient with the growth. Instead of considering it a failure, he viewed this
experience as a life lesson and learned from his mistakes. Meanwhile, his
parents never stopped trying to talk him into focusing on school and their
retail business.
"The biggest challenge when starting
a business is getting someone to believe in you, "Andy says. He pushed
through and did things for himself even when his loved ones discouraged it.
In 2019, Andy met his now business
partners, and together, they created an Amazon management company called
Project WiFi. This Project has proven to be extremely successful. They
currently help over 55 clients run their online businesses, and plan to help
many more in the future.
When asked about the secret to his
success, Andy says, "Learning to sacrifice whether that's family, friends,
or soccer game for a single goal is the only way to succeed, rather than
attempting multiple things. If it's worth doing then it's worth doing well with
no shortcuts. "
24．Why did Andy work in his parents' shops at a young age
A．Because he could earn some pocket money.
B．Because his parents weren't fluent in English.

25．What does paragraph 3 mainly talk about
A．A new online business model. B．Results of working impatiently.
C．Difficulties in Andy's career. D．Andy's tense family relationship.
26．What does Andy think contributes to his success
A．His early working experiences. B．Lessons learned from his failures.
C．Gaining other people's trust. D．Focusing on one thing at a time.
27．Which of the following can best describe Andy Kong's personality
A．Committed and generous. B．Motivated and open-minded.
C．Creative and faithful. D．Hard-working and sociable.

24．细节题。根据第二段中的“English wasn't a strong suit for Andy's parents, and that's where he was able to assist his family the most安迪的父母并不擅长英语，而这正是他能够最大限度地帮助家人的地方”，可知Andy在很小的时候在父母的店里工作的原因是父母的英语不好，他可以帮助父母，故选B。
25．段落主旨题。根据第三段中的“Unfortunately, the store eventually got shut down不幸的是，这家店最终被关闭了”和“Meanwhile, his parents never stopped trying to talk him into focusing on school and their retail business与此同时，他的父母从未停止过劝说他专注于学业和他们的零售业务”，可知Andy面临很多的困难，故选C。
26．细节题。根据最后一段中的“Learning to sacrifice whether that's family, friends, or soccer game for a single goal is the only way to succeed, rather than attempting multiple things学会为一个目标牺牲家庭、朋友或足球比赛是成功的唯一途径，而不是尝试多件事”，可知Andy认为他成功的原因是每次只做一件事，故选D。
27．推断题。通读全文，根据第三段中的“Instead of considering it a failure, he viewed this experience as a life lesson and learned from his mistakes他没有认为这是一次失败，而是把这段经历视为人生的一课，并从错误中吸取教训”，可知Andy乐观、积极向上，并且勇于接受失败，故选B。

Today, the Vikings are mostly known as
violent pirates(海盗). But they were also
traders. At their height, the Vikings attacked, settled or traded on four
continents.
All of their travel, trade and warfare
were made possible by Viking ships, which were far more advanced than anything else
sailing around Europe at the time. The most famous, and most feared, was the drekar.
At sea, these ships could move quickly thanks to their large sails . The hulls
(船体)of the ships were shallow and fat,
which made them ride high in the water. The ships were also light enough that
they could be carried from one body of water to another over short sections of
land. This greatly extended their range.
But Viking ships weren't just built for
warfare. Another type, called the knarr,
had cargo(货物) holds built in the hull.
One such cargo ship was capable of carrying 24 tons. The knarrs would have
looked similar to the drekars except they were longer, fatter and taller. These
were the backbones of the Viking empire, which they used to carry everything
from gold coins to spices and fine fabrics.
Both the drekar and the knarr were built
using the same method. Traditionally, oceangoing ships have used a keel(龙骨), shaped like the fin of a fish . The keel sinks into the water
below the hull. It helps the ship maintain a straight line through the water
and counters the force of the wind against the sail, which otherwise might blow
the ship over. Viking ships had no deep keel. Instead, they were built fat
enough to carry lots of soldiers or pieces of cargo whose weight helped keep the
ship planted in the water.
Viking ships were so advanced for their
tine that they often were the biggest, tallest and most striking ships many
people had ever seen, A monk at the St. Omar Monastery, in Franco, wrote this
description of a royal Viking ship in 1013.
"On
one side lions molded in gold were to be seen on the ships, on the other birds
on the tops of the poles indicated by their movements the winds as they blew …
."
The Vikings built a wealthy empire
through trade as well as robbery and used their wealth to continuously improve
their ships.
28．What does the author intend to tell us
A．The Vikings were not violent pirates. but traders.
B．The Vikings used to take a lead in the world trade.
C．Viking ships could carry more cargo than ships today.
D．Viking ships contributed to the extension of their empire.
29．What can we infer about the knarrs
A．They were not designed for warfare.
B．They were faster than the drekars.
C．They were designed to carry soldiers.
D．They served the same purpose as drekars.
30．What do the Vikings' ships and the traditional oceangoing ships have in common
A．They both use a deep keel shaped like the fin of a fish.
B．They both make the hull shallow and fat with large sails.
C．They both take measures to keep the ship planted in water.
D．They both install something to counter the force of wind.
31．Why does the author refer to a monk's description of a Viking ship
A．To show how advanced Viking ships were for their time.
B．To show how interested the monk was in traveling by sea.
C．To show that Viking ships were designed in a strange way.
D．To show that Viking ships were continuously improved.

【点评】考查阅读理解。本文涉及细节题和推断题两种常考题型，细节题要注意通过关键词从文中寻找答案；推断题需要对已有信息进行加工处理，推断出需要的信息。
28．推断题。根据第一段中的“ But they were also traders. At their height, the Vikings attacked, settled or traded on four continents但他们同时也是商人。在他们的鼎盛时期，维京人在四大洲进行进攻、定居和贸易”和其余段落中都反复提到的Viking ships，可知文章主要介绍的是北欧海盗船为他们帝国的扩张做出了贡献，故选D。
29．推断题。根据第三段的第一句话“But Viking ships weren't just built for warfare. Another type, called the knarr, had cargo(货物) holds built in the hull但维京船只不仅仅是为战争而建造的。另一种类型，称为knarr，在船体中建造了货舱 ，可知建造knarr的目的是载货，而不是战争，故选A。
30．细节题。根据第四段中的“The keel sinks into the water below the hull龙骨沉入船体下面的水中”和“they were built fat enough to carry lots of soldiers or pieces of cargo whose weight helped keep the ship planted in the water它们建造得足够结实，可以装载大量士兵或货物，这些货物的重量有助于使船在水中保持稳定”，可知这两种船的共同之处是他们都采取措施使船沉在水中，故选C。
31．推断题。根据倒数第3段中的“Viking ships were so advanced for their tine that they often were the biggest, tallest and most striking ships many people had ever seen维京船只在当时是如此先进，以至于它们往往是许多人见过的最大、最高和最引人注目的船只”，可知和尚对维京船的描述说明了维京船的先进性，故选A。

Every language and culture has curse
words(脏话). What gives a curse word
its power is partly its meaning and partly its sound. "In English, for
example, curse words tend to contain a high percentage of plosive
sounds—including P, T and K, "said Ryan McKay, a psychologist at
University of London.
Dr. McKay teamed up with his colleague
Shiri Lev-Ari to learn whether this familiar pattern went beyond English. They
wondered whether it might even represent what's called sound symbolism. Sound
symbolism is when a word sounds like what it means.
The researchers first asked fluent
speakers of Hebrew, Hindi, Hungarian, Korean and Russian to list the most
vulgar(粗俗的) words they could think
of. Once they'd made a list of each language's most frequently used curse words,
the researchers compared these with neutral words from the same language. In
these languages, they didn't find the plosive sounds that seem common in
English curse words. "Instead, we found that the vulgar words were defined
by what they lacked: the approximant sounds that include letters I, L, R, W and
Y, "Dr. Lev-Ari said.
Next, the scientists invited 215 native
speakers of six languages: Arabic, Chinese, Finnish, French, German and
Spanish. The participants listened to pairs of words in a language they didn't
speak, and guessed which word in each pair was offensive. In reality, all the
words were invented. For example, the researchers started with the Albanian
word "zog," for "bird, "and created the pair of fake words "yog"
and "tsog."Participants were more likely to guess that words without
approximants, such as "tsog," were curses.
Finally, the researchers combed through
the dictionary for English curse words and their cleaned-up versions. Once
again, the clean versions included more of the sounds I, L, R, W and Y.
A 20th-century linguistic(语言学的)principle claimed that the sounds of words were arbitrary: Any word
could have any meaning. With curse words, though, as in other cases of sound
symbolism, "the sounds themselves seem to carry meaning, "said
Lev-Ari." That's a new thing, "said linguist Benjamin Bergen." Curse
words across languages, unrelated to each other, may pattern similarly. "He
also pointed out, to make sure the pattern of approximants missing from curses
isn't an accident, it would be nice to find it in an even larger sample of
languages.
32．What is the purpose of McKay and Lev-Ari's research
A．To analyze a phenomenon. B．To confirm an assumption.
C．To explain a definition. D．To challenge a theory.
33．What were the participants asked to do in the second part of the research
A．To decide which curse words are used more frequently.
B．To make up new curse words from real words.
C．To guess a word's offensiveness according to its sound.
D．To identify the approximants in curse words.
34．According to Lev-Ari, which of the four is likely to sound offensive
A．tusck B．sola C．darn D．biach
35．What can we learn from the last paragraph
A．The old linguistic principle of sounds and meanings is wrong.
B．In sound symbolism, a word's sound represents its meaning.
C．The research reveals the similarities between different languages.
D．The result of the research is not fully accepted by scientists.

In theory, modern smartphones can last hundreds of hours on a single charge. 　36． 　
Manufacturers love to use laboratory conditions to advertise great numbers, most of which don't match real-world use. Here we have some saving tricks that actually work.
Delete apps you don't use. On average, smartphone users download about 42 apps but use only ten daily. An easy way to preserve battery life 　37． 　 Deleting an app that you don't use is a simple way to free up storage space on your device and reduce the burden of your battery.
　38． 　A phone's single biggest battery drain is the fact that it takes a lot of energy to keep your phone's screen lit up, and we often leave it on accidentally, even if we're not looking at the screen. The solution is to set your device to turn off its screen after 30 seconds or a minute.
Dim the screen. Viewing your phone's millions of pixels at full brightness is a guaranteed battery drain. Even your phone's auto-brightness feature will sometimes overdo it, meaning you could be losing precious hours of battery life. Try dimming your display a little at a time. 　39． 　
Go ahead and charge it. You've probably heard the classic advice about charging batteries: Let your battery drain all the way, then charge to 100 percent and repeat. The idea is that you are teaching your battery to "remember" its full charge capacity, rather than confusing it with periodic, inconsistent charges. 　40． 　 So instead of running out the door with 50 percent juice, consider plugging in your phone for 15 minutes before you leave.
A. Get rid of the others. B. Decrease display time. C. But it's not the case in practice. D. Turn off the ones that you don't use. E. You'll be surprised how quickly your eyes adjust. F. It doesn't consume as much battery power as we think. G. Actually most smartphone batteries don't need special treatment.

【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了几种延长智能手机电池使用时长的方法。
A. 把其他人都处理掉。
B. 减少显示时间。
C. 但实际情况并非如此。
D. 把你不用的关掉。
E. 你会惊讶地发现你的眼睛调整得如此之快。
F. 它消耗的电池电量没有我们想象的那么多。
G. 事实上，大多数智能手机电池都不需要特殊处理。

36．根据空格前句中的in theory（意“理论上”），结合选项C中的in practice（意“实际上”），可知此空格出对比了理论上和实际上手机电池的使用情况，故选C。
37．根据段落标题“Delete apps you don't use删除你不使用的应用程序”，可知选项A“Get rid of the others”中的get rid of与标题中的delete对应，the others指代的是上句提到的下载的42个APP中不常使用的，故选A。
38．此处为段落标题位置。其他的3个标题是祈使句，且段落中“ it takes a lot of energy to keep your phone's screen lit up保持手机屏幕亮着需要消耗大量电量”，可知这一段主要介绍的是通过减少屏幕打开时间维持电池寿命，故选B。
39．根据标题“Dim the screen调暗屏幕”和空格前的“Try dimming your display a little at a time试着一次把屏幕调暗一点”，结合选项，可知眼睛会很快适应逐渐变暗的屏幕，故选E。
40．根据标题“Go ahead and charge it继续充电吧”和空格后的“So instead of running out the door with 50 percent juice, consider plugging in your phone for 15 minutes before you leave所以，与其带着50%的电量跑出门，不如考虑在你离开之前给手机充电15分钟”，可知作者否定了空格前提到的关于手机充电方法的说法，认为大部分的智能手机电池是不需要特别对待的，故选G。

【知识点】语法填空
【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了法国 baguette 的历史和文化内涵。
【点评】考查语法填空。本题考点涉及连词、谓语动词、名词、非谓语动词、定语从句、比较级、形容词性物主代词、介词和冠词等知识点的考查。要求考生在理解细节信息的基础上，进一步根据上下文的逻辑关系，并结合相关语法知识，进行分析推理，从而写出正确的单词形式。
56．句意：但这种传统食物不仅仅是零食;法棍是法国文化的重要组成部分。根据空格后的“ this traditional food isn't just a snack; the baguette is an important part of French culture这种传统食物不仅仅是零食;法棍是法国文化的重要组成部分”，可知空格后与之前的句子意思相反，是转折关系，故答案为But/Yet。
57．句意：根据一个传说，法棍是由奥地利的一位面包师在1839年将蒸汽炉引入法国后发明的。根据句意，结合空格后的“by a baker”和“in 1839”，可知此处应是一般过去时态的被动语态的谓语动词，故答案为was created。
58．句意：整个19世纪，法棍在法国越来越受欢迎。空格前的介词in后需要宾语，即popular的名词形式，故答案为popularity。
59．句意：这些长约两米的法棍由快递员携带，她们把它们像柴火一样堆在背上。非谓语动词作状语，需要注意非谓语动词和句子主语之间的关系，如果两者之间主动、进行的关系，句中，句子主语these baguette和非谓语动词measure是主动关系，所以应使用V-ing形式，故答案为Measuring。
60．句意：当这些巨大的法棍面包端上来时，通常是沿着餐桌摆放的，因为它们太长了，不适合餐桌的宽度！状语从句的省略，需要注意主句主语和状语从句中非谓语动词的关系，如果两者构成被动、完成的关系，则应使用过去分词；句中，主句主语these huge baguettes与状语从句中的非谓语动词serve（意“给……提供，端上食物”）构成被动关系，故答案为served。
61．句意：虽然这种面包的历史可以追溯到19世纪，但baguette这个词直到20世纪20年代才被广泛使用，当时一项新法律禁止面包师在凌晨4点之前工作。定语从句的先行词是1920s，表示时间，且空格后的句子意思和语法结构都完整，故答案为when。
62．句意：这项法律出台后，面包师们开始将面包制作成又长又薄的形状，这样面包烤得更快，可以及时用作早餐。根据空格前的“making bread with a long, thin shape把面包做成长薄的形状”和空格后的“be ready in time for breakfast及时准备好早饭”，可知烤制面包的速度会更快，故答案为faster。
63．句意：吃法棍有自己的一套习俗。固定搭配“形容词性物主代词+own+名词”表示“某人自己的……”，故答案为its。
64．句意：用餐时，法棍通常用手掰开，而不是用刀切成薄片。根据空格前的“broken apart by hand用手掰开”，可知空格处应是“不是用刀子切片”，故答案为with。
65．句意：不管你喜欢吃什么，记住你吃的不只是面包，你吃的是法国的象征！根据句意，可知文中把baguette看作是法国的一种象征，表示泛指，故答案为a。

67．（2023高三下·扬州开学考）阅读下面材料，根据共内容和所给段落汗头语续写两段，使之构成一篇究整的短文。
I was twenty then, teaching a class of thirty students in Toronto including Mike, a 10-year-old street kid. Having lost his father and mother, he lived with a mentally-disturbed grandmother.
He was always hungry, so each day I'd take him for breakfast before class. Each noon after I shared my lunch with him, I taught him new skills—using a microscope, constructing a camera etc.
One day Mike told me of his dream. Most kids in the class wanted to be doctors, teachers or some such thing, but not Mike! His desire was to be a gangster(强盗)!And he was serious about it.
I believed all children had a gift for what he wanted to be. If he wanted to be a gangster, I'd do all I could to help him become the very best "gangster".
I had a plan. Every Saturday after we had breakfast, I took him to the Law Library of the city. I explained to him a good gangster had to know something about criminal law, and reading up on law was the only way to learn. His young mind was interested, and he dove in.
That was how we spent each Saturday morning that year. I'd drop him off at the law library. Three hours later, I'd return, pick him up for lunch and after a review of his morning's work, take him home.
The following year I taught in another school far away, which prevented me continuing to participate physically with him on Saturday mornings. But I provided him with public transportation tickets so he could keep up his regular study at the library.
Later I got married and moved to London. Sadly, and to my great regret, I lost contact with Mike.
Years passed. I often thought of him, wondering what had become of him. Then, one day, I was back in Toronto on business, looking up the number of a former colleague in the telephone directory, and there, Mike's name as part of a title of "JUDGES and LAWYERS" danced off the page into my eyes.
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。
I wondered, "Could it be him "
When we were able to get together, he told me his road to the law.
【答案】 I wondered, "Could it be him " I dialed the number, gave my full name to a secretary and was put on hold. A long fifteen seconds later, a gentleman was on the line. His opening statement was, "Mr. Kowal (or whatever), I've really … missed you." Then there was silence. Tears welling up in my eyes, I blurted out between sobs, "Mike, I only wish I'd kept in touch with you all these years. I'm really proud of you." In a trembling voice on the other side, Mike answered, "I wouldn't be here now if it weren't for you."
When we were able to get together, he told me his road to the law. Studying law in the library enabled him to explore his inner depths—the "gangster" he had wanted to be was something of a hero protecting the disadvantaged with knowledge. He studied all the way to the law university while working part-time for his education fees. Now he had risen to be one of the most successful criminal lawyers in Canada. He owed all to me while I thought the greatest good we teachers could do for the students was to assist in revealing the best of their own.
【知识点】读后续写
【解析】【分析】本篇书面表达是读后续写。通过阅读可知，文章主要讲述了作者在多伦多的一所学校工作期间，帮助了一名叫做Mike的学生的故事。不同于班上其他的同学，Mike的理想是成为一名“强盗”，作者因势利导，在每个礼拜六上午会带Mike去图书馆学习一些法律知识；后来由于工作原因。作者失去了与Mike的联系，作者一度因此而感到难过；在一次出差重新回到多伦多的时候，作者意外发现一名叫作Mike律师和法官。段落续写：①由第一段首句内容“我想:“会是他吗 ””可知，第一段描写作者在时隔多年后与这名叫Mike的法官和律师取得了联系，并确认这个Mike就是自己曾经的学生Mike；②由第二段首句内容“当我们能在一起时，他告诉了我他的法律之路。”可知，第二段可描写Mike的成功之路。写作时注意准确运用时态，上下文意思连贯，符合逻辑关系，尽量使用自己熟悉的单词句式，同时也要注意使用高级词汇和高级句型是文章显得更有档次。
【点评】本篇书面表达要点齐全，上下文连贯，使用了一定数量的句式结构，让句子更加生动丰满，同时运用了许多高级词汇和固定短语，提高了文章的档次，体现了对英语的熟练的驾驭能力。例如：Tears welling up in my eyes, I blurted out between sobs运用了独立主格结构；Mike, I only wish I'd kept in touch with you all these years和I wouldn't be here now if it weren't for you都运用了虚拟语气； Studying law in the library enabled him to explore his inner depths 运用了V-ing短语作主语；the "gangster" he had wanted to be was something of a hero protecting the disadvantaged with knowledge运用了定语从句和V-ing短语作定语；He studied all the way to the law university while working part-time for his education fees运用了状语从句的省略结构。
