Copenhagen has GREAT public transport. It is reliable, safe, and easily accessible. Of course, like everything in Copenhagen, it is not cheap. The system can be a little confusing, even for locals, but we’re here to help simplify it all for you! And today our focus is Travelling with a Bike.
BIKES ON THE TRAIN
Bicycles can be taken on s-tog lines for free but you can’t take bikes through N rreport station during peak hours. To take your bike on a train, you need to put it on the first or last carriage, clearly marked with large signs of bicycles on the outside.
To take a bike on a regional train, which takes you to parts of Denmark outside Copenhagen, you must buy an extra ticket. The price depends on the distance and varies from 16 kr to 28 kr.
BIKES ON THE METRO
Bicycles can be taken on the metro for an extra 13 kr. You need to pay for the bike with its own ticket. You can’t take your bike on the metro during peak hours.
BIKES ON THE BUS
You can bring a bike on a bus but each bus is limited to two bikes, even if there is much space. Generally, people do not travel with their bikes on buses in Copenhagen.
BIKES ON THE FERRY(渡轮)
Charges for bicycles depend on the company and the destination. You will need to check with the ferry companies. When you book the ticket, you must state that you have a cycle, even if it’s free of charge.
1. Who is this text probably intended for
A. Tourist guides.
B. Bike travelers.
C. Local citizens.
D. Ticket inspectors.
2. On which public transport can you take a bike for free
A. A peak time s-tog train.
B. A weekday regional train.
C. An off-peak metro train.
D. A weekend ferry.
3. What is the disadvantage of bringing a bike on a bus
A. Buses are too crowded.
B. It’s against the local custom.
C. Availability is not guaranteed.
D. It’s not welcomed by other passengers.
B
I was 68 when I first stepped on stage as a standup comedian in 2003. I’d never set foot in a comedy club before. I’ve always been a performer - I’ve worked as a singer, actor and musician - but all that came to an end after 9/11. I live in New York, and we watched the twin towers fall from my apartment building. For a year afterwards, nobody wanted to go out or be entertained.
It was then that I started to think about comedy. I realised people needed to laugh, to enjoy themselves again, and thought that with a little training I could do it. I took a few classes, tried to work out a routine, and finally plucked up the courage to get up on stage. That first time was terrifying. I had no idea what the audience would make of me.
In New York, comedians are typically young men with beards. It’s hard enough to break through as a woman, even harder as someone old enough to be their grandmother. As I stepped on stage that first time, people laughed nervously. They were clearly surprised to see me. I introduced myself, stated my age and tried my first joke. There was silence. But by the time I got to the third line, people were properly laughing, I was addicted.
Now my sets differ. I might be on stage for 10 minutes in front of a dozen people, or my one-woman show is a full hour in front of a crowd of 100. Even today, I’m nervous before I step out. My first line is, “Hello, everybody. I’m 88 and three-quarters years old. I’m telling you that in case I don’t make it all the way through the show.” Then people laugh and I relax.
After a show, people young and old come up to me, saying what an inspiration I am. They say they want to be as active as me when they reach my age. I’m pleased I can show that as an older person you don’t need to take a back seat in life.
I’ve no intention of stopping comedy. I’m taking all these pills trying to stay alive, and I hope to still be performing when I’m 100. My goal is to still be up there making people laugh. It’s hard work, but it stops me being bored. I’d only be playing golf otherwise
4. What made the writer take up comedy
A. She wanted to overcome her fears B. She wanted to brighten others’ lives
C. She was unwilling to quit performing D. She wanted to work out a routine
5. Why does the writer mention young men with beards in Paragraph 3
A. To show the challenge she was facing
B. To explain her attraction to the job
C. To illustrate her special advantage
D. To describe her new friends in comedy
6. How has the writer made progress since her first performance
A. She now performs before larger audiences
B. She no longer feels nervous before performances
C. She remains on the stage for a longer time
D. She has learned to make a joke of her age
7. Which of the following statements would the writer agree with
A. Age is just a number
B. Advancing years bring greater wisdom
C. Old age means a chance to sit back
D. Being elderly means you have to slow down
C
Satellites are already in use for so many purposes today — from weather forecasting to communications, GPS, and more.
Since the late 1970s, satellites such as the European Space Agency’s (ESA) CryoSat-2 and the US Space Agency’s ICESat-2, have also been used to monitor changes in the Arctic sea ice.
Data suggests that sea ice is thinning over time due to climate change. Over the last 40 years, the extent of Arctic ice cover has been declining at a rate of 13% per decade. However, existing ways of measurement do not provide a clear and continuous picture of the state of sea ice.
These satellites use special radar or laser-based altimeter instruments (雷达或激光测高仪). Sea ice thickness is then calculated as the difference between the height of the ice and the top of the water (ice level—sea level). This method works well during the winter months.
Unfortunately, satellite-based sea ice thickness measurements are inaccurate during the summer months: the time of the year with the greatest melting. This melting creates a pool of liquid water on the surface. As a result, the simple calculation (ice level—sea level) does not work as radar systems are unable to differentiate between ocean water and ice, thus making measurements inaccurate.
Last September, scientists developed a new method to tackle this age-old issue. The new method combined computer modeling and satellite data to predict ice thickness — all year round. The research team led by Jack Landy, a scientist at the University of Troms (The Arctic University of Norway), used the new method to distinguish between seawater and ice.
The researchers built a model of the radar system’s predicted data and cross-referenced these values to those collected by a satellite. This model allows the researchers to obtain accurate, year-round Arctic sea ice thickness data.
According to Dr. Michel Tsamados from University College London, the new advanced climate model “will improve both the short-term forecasts for the weather at the mid-latitudes (中纬度地区) and the long-term forecasts that show what climate we will have in the future.”
8. What does the satellite data tell us
A. The Arctic ice will no longer exist in four decades.
B. Sea ice cover is melting at a rate of 13% per year.
C. The ESA’s satellites provide clearer pictures.
D. Sea ice is becoming increasingly thinner.
9. What makes the ice level to sea level measurements inaccurate
A. Inaction of the laser-based altimeter instruments in summer.
B. Radar systems’ inability to distinguish seawater from ice.
C. There being technical difficulty calculating the height of the ice.
D. There being no way to consistently detect melt pools on ice.
10. What does the new method aim to do
A. Provide accurate forecasts for the weather.
B. Replace satellites in monitoring sea ice changes.
C. Get a reliable summertime record of sea ice thickness.
D. Test the efficiency of machine learning in climate change.
11 What does Dr. Michel Tsamados think of the new model
A. It will be useful in different ways.
B. It will prove environmentally friendly.
C. It has a short-term impact on climate research.
D. It needs improvement to predict the Arctic’s future.
D
First impressions can set a lasting tone, but there is often something doubtful. Psychologists have documented a phenomenon known as the liking gap, whereby two people meeting for the first time routinely underestimate how much their counterparts (对应方) like them. A new study finds that the liking gap occurs in group settings too and affects how well groups function.
In one experiment, the researchers divided 159 participants into groups of three and asked them to have a conversation. They then surveyed the participants individually about how much they liked each of their partners, how much they thought each partner liked them, and how much they thought their partners liked each other. On average, people liked their partners more than they believed their partners liked them, and thought themselves to be the least liked in the group.
In a subsequent experiment, the researchers asked similar questions of engineering students who had worked together in design competitions for varying lengths of time. Here, too, people tended to underestimate the degree to which they were liked, regardless of how long they had known their teammates — and their dim views of their own likability reduced their willingness to ask others for help, give honest feedback, and work together in the future.
A final experiment involving a broad sample of workers showed that the misperceptions (误解) were strongest among teammates and that they decreased team effectiveness and job satisfaction. It also found a possible explanation for the liking gap: People tend to focus on positive thoughts when reflecting on how much they like someone else “(I’m happy that she got a promotion”) but fall victim to more negative ones when considering how others view them “(I got a promotion, so she might be green with envy”).
Managers should think carefully not just about how teammates regard one another but about how team members think they themselves are regarded, the researchers say; correcting misperceptions could boost team satisfaction and performance. “If only people knew how positively their teammates actually felt about them, they might communicate better, feel more included on their teams, and be happier overall with their jobs,” they write.
12. What does the liking gap refer to
A. A type of social anxiety disorder. B. Love among different age groups.
C. Misjudging others’ opinions of us. D. Holding back others’ evaluations.
13. What did the experiment in paragraph 2 reveal
A. People did not like to give honest comments.
B. People tended to think little of their partners.
C. People were quite demanding towards others.
D. People were not very confident about themselves.
14. What does the underlined word “dim” in paragraph 3 probably mean
A. Conflicting. B. Negative. C. Conventional. D. Strong.
15. What do the researchers suggest managers stress
A. Employees’ viewpoints on themselves.
B. The relationship between team members.
C. Employee promotion and job satisfaction.
D. Communication between leaders and employees.

第二节（满分25分）
57. I met the Man of the Trees in summer ten years ago, when I was visiting Uncle Jita.
Those were difficult times. People were cutting down our forest, and there was often flooding. Sometimes our water supply was dirty. When our pump(水泵)did have clean water, we had to wait in line for ages. When the pump wasn’t working, we had to walk five kilometres to the closest stream.
But I was happy. I was going to see my favorite uncle. When the day finally arrived, Dad drove me to Uncle Jita’s house and left. Once he saw me, Uncle Jita announced, “Tomorrow we’re going to explore a magical place. Here is my camera, Amy. You can take photos of what you see.”
The following day, we woke up and left early on a boat. The trip was exciting. But when we got off, there was ... nothing in front of us. “I don’t want to take pictures of this,” I complained.
Uncle laughed,“Start walking, Amy. I promise you’ll be surprised.” After some time, I could see the outline of a forest in the distance. A little closer, there was a man waving to us.
“That’s Kabir. The forest you see is his. He planted every single tree.” As we walked towards Kabir, Uncle explained that thirty years ago, the whole area was a wasteland. But one day Kabir decided to change all that and started planting trees. Thanks to him, part of the wasteland is now a paradise(天堂).
Uncle introduced me to Kabir, who had gray hair and a determined face. “Jita told me you like animals. Are you ready to see some ” he asked. “Of course!” I replied. We continued walking and soon were under the trees. I turned my head and was amazed at the difference between the two places. All because of the efforts of one man.
Like Uncle said, Kabir’s forest was magical. We saw deer, rhinos, and even tigers. During lunchtime, Kabir explained how, by planting trees, it was possible to stop the land from eroding(侵蚀).
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。
Hearing this, I turned to my uncle, “I think we can plant trees too ”
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
In the years that followed, people in our village worked hard to carry out our plan.

I was 68 when I first stepped on stage as a standup comedian in 2003. I’d never set foot in a comedy club before. I’ve always been a performer - I’ve worked as a singer, actor and musician - but all that came to an end after 9/11. I live in New York, and we watched the twin towers fall from my apartment building. For a year afterwards, nobody wanted to go out or be entertained.
It was then that I started to think about comedy. I realised people needed to laugh, to enjoy themselves again, and thought that with a little training I could do it. I took a few classes, tried to work out a routine, and finally plucked up the courage to get up on stage. That first time was terrifying. I had no idea what the audience would make of me.
In New York, comedians are typically young men with beards. It’s hard enough to break through as a woman, even harder as someone old enough to be their grandmother. As I stepped on stage that first time, people laughed nervously. They were clearly surprised to see me. I introduced myself, stated my age and tried my first joke. There was silence. But by the time I got to the third line, people were properly laughing, I was addicted.
Now my sets differ. I might be on stage for 10 minutes in front of a dozen people, or my one-woman show is a full hour in front of a crowd of 100. Even today, I’m nervous before I step out. My first line is, “Hello, everybody. I’m 88 and three-quarters years old. I’m telling you that in case I don’t make it all the way through the show.” Then people laugh and I relax.
After a show, people young and old come up to me, saying what an inspiration I am. They say they want to be as active as me when they reach my age. I’m pleased I can show that as an older person you don’t need to take a back seat in life.
I’ve no intention of stopping comedy. I’m taking all these pills, trying to stay alive, and I hope to still be performing when I’m 100. My goal is to still be up there making people laugh. It’s hard work, but it stops me being bored. I’d only be playing golf otherwise

Satellites are already in use for so many purposes today — from weather forecasting to communications, GPS, and more.
Since the late 1970s, satellites such as the European Space Agency’s (ESA) CryoSat-2 and the US Space Agency’s ICESat-2, have also been used to monitor changes in the Arctic sea ice.
Data suggests that sea ice is thinning over time due to climate change. Over the last 40 years, the extent of Arctic ice cover has been declining at a rate of 13% per decade. However, existing ways of measurement do not provide a clear and continuous picture of the state of sea ice.
These satellites use special radar or laser-based altimeter instruments (雷达或激光测高仪). Sea ice thickness is then calculated as the difference between the height of the ice and the top of the water (ice level—sea level). This method works well during the winter months.
Unfortunately, satellite-based sea ice thickness measurements are inaccurate during the summer months: the time of the year with the greatest melting. This melting creates a pool of liquid water on the surface. As a result, the simple calculation (ice level—sea level) does not work as radar systems are unable to differentiate between ocean water and ice, thus making measurements inaccurate.
Last September, scientists developed a new method to tackle this age-old issue. The new method combined computer modeling and satellite data to predict ice thickness — all year round. The research team led by Jack Landy, a scientist at the University of Troms (The Arctic University of Norway), used the new method to distinguish between seawater and ice.
The researchers built a model of the radar system’s predicted data and cross-referenced these values to those collected by a satellite. This model allows the researchers to obtain accurate, year-round Arctic sea ice thickness data.
According to Dr. Michel Tsamados from University College London, the new advanced climate model “will improve both the short-term forecasts for the weather at the mid-latitudes (中纬度地区) and the long-term forecasts that show what climate we will have in the future.”
8. What does the satellite data tell us
A. The Arctic ice will no longer exist in four decades.
B. Sea ice cover is melting at a rate of 13% per year.
C. The ESA’s satellites provide clearer pictures.
D. Sea ice is becoming increasingly thinner.
9. What makes the ice level to sea level measurements inaccurate
A. Inaction of the laser-based altimeter instruments in summer.
B. Radar systems’ inability to distinguish seawater from ice.
C. There being technical difficulty calculating the height of the ice.
D. There being no way to consistently detect melt pools on ice.
10. What does the new method aim to do
A. Provide accurate forecasts for the weather.
B. Replace satellites in monitoring sea ice changes.
C. Get a reliable summertime record of sea ice thickness.
D. Test the efficiency of machine learning in climate change.
11. What does Dr. Michel Tsamados think of the new model
A. It will be useful in different ways.
B. It will prove environmentally friendly.
C. It has a short-term impact on climate research.
D. It needs improvement to predict the Arctic’s future.

First impressions can set a lasting tone, but there is often something doubtful. Psychologists have documented a phenomenon known as the liking gap, whereby two people meeting for the first time routinely underestimate how much their counterparts (对应方) like them. A new study finds that the liking gap occurs in group settings too and affects how well groups function.
In one experiment the researchers divided 159 participants into groups of three and asked them to have a conversation. They then surveyed the participants individually about how much they liked each of their partners, how much they thought each partner liked them, and how much they thought their partners liked each other. On average, people liked their partners more than they believed their partners liked them, and thought themselves to be the least liked in the group.
In a subsequent experiment, the researchers asked similar questions of engineering students who had worked together in design competitions for varying lengths of time. Here, too, people tended to underestimate the degree to which they were liked, regardless of how long they had known their teammates — and their dim views of their own likability reduced their willingness to ask others for help, give honest feedback, and work together in the future.
A final experiment involving a broad sample of workers showed that the misperceptions (误解) were strongest among teammates and that they decreased team effectiveness and job satisfaction. It also found a possible explanation for the liking gap: People tend to focus on positive thoughts when reflecting on how much they like someone else “(I’m happy that she got a promotion”) but fall victim to more negative ones when considering how others view them “(I got a promotion, so she might be green with envy”).
Managers should think carefully not just about how teammates regard one another but about how team members think they themselves are regarded, the researchers say; correcting misperceptions could boost team satisfaction and performance. “If only people knew how positively their teammates actually felt about them, they might communicate better, feel more included on their teams, and be happier overall with their jobs,” they write.
12. What does the liking gap refer to
A. A type of social anxiety disorder. B. Love among different age groups.
C. Misjudging others’ opinions of us. D. Holding back others’ evaluations.
13. What did the experiment in paragraph 2 reveal
A. People did not like to give honest comments.
B. People tended to think little of their partners.
C. People were quite demanding towards others.
D. People were not very confident about themselves.
14. What does the underlined word “dim” in paragraph 3 probably mean
A. Conflicting. B. Negative. C. Conventional. D. Strong.
15. What do the researchers suggest managers stress
A. Employees’ viewpoints on themselves.
B. The relationship between team members.
C. Employee promotion and job satisfaction.
D. Communication between leaders and employees.
【答案】12. C 13. D 14. B 15. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是说明文。两个人第一次见面时，通常会低估对方对自己的喜欢程度。一项新的研究发现，喜欢的差距也发生在群体环境中，并影响群体的功能。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中“Psychologists have documented a phenomenon known as the liking gap, whereby two people meeting for the first time routinely underestimate how much their counterparts (对应方) like them.(心理学家记录了一种被称为“喜欢差距”的现象，即两个人第一次见面时，通常会低估对方对自己的喜欢程度。)”可知，“喜欢差距”指的是误判别人对我们的看法。故选C。
【13题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段中“On average, people liked their partners more than they believed their partners liked them, and thought themselves to be the least liked in the group.(平均而言，人们更喜欢他们的伴侣，而不是他们认为他们的伴侣喜欢他们，并认为自己是最不喜欢的组。)”可知，实验表明人们不认为他们的伴侣喜欢他们，而且他们认为自己是最不喜欢的组，由此可推知，人们对自己不是很自信。故选D。
【14题详解】
词句猜测题。根据画线单词上文“people tended to underestimate the degree to which they were liked, regardless of how long they had known their teammates(不管认识队友多久，人们也倾向于低估自己被喜欢的程度，)”可知，不管认识队友多久，人们也倾向于低估自己被喜欢的程度，这说明他们对自己的可爱程度持有消极的的看法，由此可推知划线单词dim意为“消极的，悲观的”，故选B。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Managers should think carefully not just about how teammates regard one another but about how team members think they themselves are regarded, the researchers say; correcting misperceptions could boost team satisfaction and performance. (研究人员说，管理者不仅应该仔细考虑队友如何看待彼此，还应该考虑队友如何看待他们自己；纠正误解可以提高团队的满意度和绩效。)”可推知，研究人员建议管理者不仅应该仔细考虑队友如何看待彼此，还应该考虑队友如何看待他们自己，即强调员工对自己的看法。故选A。

第二节（满分25分）
57. I met the Man of the Trees in summer ten years ago, when I was visiting Uncle Jita.
Those were difficult times. People were cutting down our forest, and there was often flooding. Sometimes our water supply was dirty. When our pump(水泵)did have clean water, we had to wait in line for ages. When the pump wasn’t working, we had to walk five kilometres to the closest stream.
But I was happy. I was going to see my favorite uncle. When the day finally arrived, Dad drove me to Uncle Jita’s house and left. Once he saw me, Uncle Jita announced, “Tomorrow we’re going to explore a magical place. Here is my camera, Amy. You can take photos of what you see.”
The following day, we woke up and left early on a boat. The trip was exciting. But when we got off, there was ... nothing in front of us. “I don’t want to take pictures of this,” I complained.
Uncle laughed,“Start walking, Amy. I promise you’ll be surprised.” After some time, I could see the outline of a forest in the distance. A little closer, there was a man waving to us.
“That’s Kabir. The forest you see is his. He planted every single tree.” As we walked towards Kabir, Uncle explained that thirty years ago, the whole area was a wasteland. But one day Kabir decided to change all that and started planting trees. Thanks to him, part of the wasteland is now a paradise(天堂).
Uncle introduced me to Kabir, who had gray hair and a determined face. “Jita told me you like animals. Are you ready to see some ” he asked. “Of course!” I replied. We continued walking and soon were under the trees. I turned my head and was amazed at the difference between the two places. All because of the efforts of one man.
Like Uncle said, Kabir’s forest was magical. We saw deer, rhinos, and even tigers. During lunchtime, Kabir explained how, by planting trees, it was possible to stop the land from eroding(侵蚀).
注意：
1．续写词数应为150左右；

Hearing this, I turned to my uncle, “I think we can plant trees too ”

In the years that followed, people in our village worked hard to carry out our plan.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】Hearing this, I turned to my uncle, “I think we can plant trees too.” Grabbing the camera in my hand, I added with excitement. “I’ve got a plan! I’ll show them the photos of Kabir’s magical forest! ” Seeing Uncle and Kabir’s encouraging smile, I immediately set down to my work, busily pressing my shutter and capturing the amazing scenes in the forest. When Uncle and I went back to the village several days later and showed these wonderful pictures to my neighbour, they were stunned by the beauty of the forest. “It was the trees that turned the place into a paradise! ” We then explained our tree-planting plan to the villagers, which was quickly accepted by all of them.
In the years that followed, people in our village worked hard to carry out our plan. Instead of cutting down our forest, we started to plant trees, which has eventually helped protect the soil and stopped the land from eroding. Thanks to the trees, the water has been purified and we finally have clean and stable water supply. With our joint efforts, our village is now surrounded by small thriving forests with blooming flowers, lively animals and crystal-clear streams running through. Witnessing the gradual change of our village, we came to realize that only when we live in harmony with nature can we have a brighter future.
