New York City streets are full of similar-looking yellow cabs (出租车). Among them, however, there is the Candy Cab—a free candy store on wheels.
Mansoor Khalid, a taxi driver, started handing out candy in 2012, following the death of his one-year-old son, who suffered from a serious heart disease. While his son was in hospital, Mansoor often took coffee and candy for the nurses and saw how happy these small gestures made them.
Wanting to feel some joy again, he began putting a couple pieces of candy on the passenger seats, just to see their faces light up. Those few pieces soon became piles and piles of candy, as Mansoor Khalid realized that the candy made everyone smile and “Candy Cab” was born! The kind man, who spends over $300 each month on the candy, says that seeing his customers happy makes his job more fun.
There is a sign in the cab that reads, “No eating or drinking inside this car except candies.” The driver even offers a free ride to any passenger that can finish all the candy that he puts in front of them—So far, no one has been able to meet the challenge.
Not surprisingly, Mansoor Khalid gets plenty of smiles and hugs and also thousands of warm messages and videos on his overflowing Twitter, and Facebook accounts. But the best part about the Candy Cab is that you don’t need to rely on luck. Interested passengers can simply call it by sending him a message via one of his social media pages and they will be picked up at no extra cost.

Online secondhand store thredUP has shown its tenth yearly Resale Report, which shows that the secondhand clothing industry is growing rapidly in the United States, as well as around the world. The secondhand market in the US is expected to more than double by 2026.
When choosing what to buy, people are increasingly experienced in what can be resold. More than one-fifth of Generation Z shoppers say they’ll pay more for the clothes that they know they can resell, and more than half of them resold clothes last year.
This is a much healthier opinion than storing out-of-style or ill-fitting clothes in a closet (衣柜). As resale becomes easier thanks to mobile technology and online stores, increasing numbers of customers hope to turnover their closets. This helps the industry and keeps the market full of fresh finds, bringing people back for more.
Buying or selling things secondhand helps to reduce people’s worry about the environment. As thredUP reported in 2021, buying or selling things secondhand reduces a product’s carbon Footprint (碳排放量) by 82%. It requires far less water to produce. Besides, it’s a good way to save money.
Aja Barber said in her book: “Clothing is produced at a fast speed, so it is important that resale become a key part of people’s lifestyles. Accepting reuse is not always easy when we are faced with many choices — many of which encourage the buying of cheap, single-use clothes-but the rise of online resale is enabling people to make different choices and do so with pride and joy.”
It’s great to hear that resale is being accepted by more people, which can help us save money while protecting our planet.
8. What can we say about secondhand clothing according to the report
A. It is a fast-growing industry. B. It makes the market full of anxiety.
C. It is accepted by most people. D. It is more comfortable than new clothing.
9. How does the author feel about resale
A. Unclear. B. Worried. C. Doubtful. D. Supportive.
10. What does Paragraph 4 mainly focus on
A. The dangers of carbon footprint. B. The ways of reducing people’s worry.
C. The advantages of buying used clothes. D. The causes of environmental problems.
11. What did Aja Barber want to tell us
A. The clothing industry causes a lot of waste.
B. Online resale is changing people’s shopping habits
C. People are confused when faced with many choices.
D. Dressing styles are closely connected with social life
【答案】8. A 9. D 10. C 11. B
【解析】

Besides, it’s a good way to save money.(购买或出售二手物品有助于减少人们对环境的担忧。正如thredUP在2021年报告的那样，购买或出售二手商品可以减少82%的产品碳足迹。它生产所需的水要少得多。此外，这也是省钱的好方法)”可知，第4段的主旨是购买二手衣服的好处。故选C。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“Accepting reuse is not always easy when we are faced with many choices — many of which encourage the buying of cheap, single-use clothes-but the rise of online resale is enabling people to make different choices and do so with pride and joy.(当我们面临许多选择时，接受重复使用并不总是那么容易，其中许多选择鼓励购买便宜的一次性衣服，但在线转售的兴起使人们能够做出不同的选择，并以自豪和快乐的方式这样做)”可推知，阿贾·巴伯想告诉我们网上转售正在改变人们的购物习惯。故选B。
D
“Why do people enjoy saying that they are bad at math ” wonders Petra Bonfert, a professor of engineering at Dartmouth College. After seeing too many examples of adults “passing on mathematical anxiety like a virus, ”Bonfert has an important message for math phobic (恐惧的) parents and educators: “We are passing on from generation to generation the fear for mathematics. ”
Many people hold the view that math is incredibly hard, and only people with an inborn mathematical ability can understand it. While well-meaning adults may think they’re encouraging kids by sharing their own math fears, research has shown the opposite. Research has found that the problem is particularly significant for girls, who “are cspecially affected when a teacher publicly announces dislike of math before she picks up the chalk.” Moreover, a study published recently reported that female mathematical achievement was diminished in response to a female teacher’s mathematical anxiety. The effect was obvious: the bigher a teacher’s anxiety, the lower the scores. Parents’ anxiety about math can have a similar effect on kids’ achievement and their attitude toward the subject.
Fortunately, Sian Beilock, a scientist of Barnard College, has found a surprisingly easy way for parents to stop passing on math anxiety and build their children’s math confidence. The most important finding is the importance of normalizing math at home in a way that’s relaxing and playful: from using math-themed books and stories, playing with math games and toys to cooking together. He argues that we need to teach kids that working on mathematical skills is like practicing a sport. Neither can be learned by watching others perform the activity and both require encouragement and effort. You do not need an inborn mathematical ability in order to solve mathematical problems. Rather, what is required is perseverance, a willingness to take risks and feeling safe to make mistakes.”
12. Why do some people share their math fear with kids
A. To expect kids to learn from their mistake.
B. To prove only geniuses can learn it well.
C. To give encouragement to their kids.
D To stress the importance of genetic factors.
13. What does the underlined word “diminished” mean
A. Reduced. B. Measured.
C. Improved. D. Influenced.
14. What can be learned from the last paragraph
A. Math is a hands-on subject. B. In born math ability is essential.
C. Learning math at home is relaxing. D. Watching is a way to learn math.
15. How could you learn math well according to Sian Beilock
A. Stop anxiety B. Ask for teacher’s help.
C. Solve problems on your own. D. Be brave to face mistakes.
【答案】12. C 13. A 14. A 15. D
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了虽然善意的成年人可能认为，他们分享自己对数学的恐惧是在鼓励孩子，但研究表明，事实恰恰相反。研究指出父母或者老师对数学的焦虑可能会对孩子的成绩和他们对数学的态度产生类似的影响。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“While well-meaning adults may think they’re encouraging kids by sharing their own math fears, research has shown the opposite.(虽然善意的成年人可能认为，他们分享自己对数学的恐惧是在鼓励孩子，但研究表明，事实恰恰相反)”可知，有些人会和孩子们分享他们对数学的恐惧是为了鼓励他们的孩子。故选C项。
【13题详解】
词句猜测题。根据画线词上文“Moreover, a study published recently reported that female mathematical achievement was(此外，最近发表的一项研究报告称，女性的数学成绩)”以及后文“in response to a female teacher’s mathematical anxiety. The effect was obvious: the bigher a teacher’s anxiety, the lower the scores.(以回应一位女教师的数学焦虑。效果是显而易见的：老师的焦虑程度越高，分数就越低。)”可知，这种影响是相关的：老师越焦虑，分数就越低，所以可以得知最近发表的一项研究报告称，女教师的数学焦虑会降低女性的数学成绩。故画线词意思是“降低”。A. Reduced.减少，降低；B. Measured.测量；C. Improved.改善；D. Influenced.影响。故选A项。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中“The most important finding is the importance of normalizing math at home in a way that’s relaxing and playful: from using math-themed books and stories, playing with math games and toys to cooking together. He argues that we need to teach kids that working on mathematical skills is like practicing a sport. Neither can be learned by watching others perform the activity and both require encouragement and effort.(最重要的发现是，在家里以一种放松和有趣的方式规范数学的重要性：从使用数学主题的书籍和故事，玩数学游戏和玩具到一起做饭。他认为，我们需要教会孩子们，学习数学技能就像练习一项运动。两者都不能通过观看他人的活动来学习，都需要鼓励和努力。)”可知，数学是一门动手的学科，需要把数学融入生活中过手练习。故选A项。
【15题详解】
细节理解题。由文章最后一段“Rather, what is required is perseverance, a willingness to take risks and feeling safe to make mistakes.(相反，需要的是毅力、冒险的意愿和犯错的安全感。)”可知， Sian Beilock认为需要勇于面对错误才会学好数学。故选D项。

阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。
Body language, sometimes called “non-verbal communication”, is ___36___ important tool. It includes things like gestures, facial ___37___(expression), and even small things like a slight nod of the head. The way you communicate through body language can determine your ___38___(succeed) in everything from relationships to your career.
Just like words we use, body language also varies from culture ___39___ culture. The crucial thing is that body language should be used ___40___(appropriate). For instance, Americans wave goodbye with the palm facing the person they are waving to. But it may occur with the palm up to the sky in other cultures. There are also some differences in how we touch someone we ___41___(talk) to. In countries like France and Russia, people kiss their friends ___42___ the cheek when they meet. Elsewhere, people favour shaking hands, ___43___(bow) from the waist, or nodding the head when they meet someone else.
It would be impossible ___44___(describe) all the ways people use body language. So paying closer attention to the messages you send through body language can help you succeed. Just remember “When in Rome, do as the Romans do”, ____45____ can make you appear more confident or direct.
【答案】36. an 37. expressions
38. success
39. to 40. appropriately
41. are talking
42. on 43. bowing

【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了肢体语言，主要包括其含义、内容、重要性和文化间的差异等信息。
【36题详解】
考查冠词。句意：肢体语言，有时被称为“非语言交流”，是一个重要的工具。分析句子可知，空处表示泛指，意为“一个，一种”，应用不定冠词，且important的发音以元音音素开头，因此应用an。故填an。
【37题详解】
考查名词的数。句意：它包括手势、面部表情，甚至是轻微点头这样的小事。分析句子可知，空前没有表示单数概念的修饰语，且gestures和things都是复数形式，空处应用可数名词expression“表情”的复数形式。故填expressions。
【38题详解】
考查名词。句意：你通过肢体语言交流的方式可以决定你在从人际关系到事业上的一切事情上的成功。分析句子可知，空处被your修饰，作determine的宾语，因此应用succeed的名词形式success，意为“成功”，为不可数名词。故填success。
【39题详解】
考查介词。句意：就像我们使用的词语一样，肢体语言也因文化而异。根据“varies from”可推知，此处用固定短语vary from…to…，意为“从……到……各异”，因此空处应用介词to。故填to。
【40题详解】
考查副词。句意：最关键的是肢体语言的使用要恰当。分析句子可知，空处修饰动词used，appropriate的副词形式appropriately符合题意，意为“恰当地”。故填appropriately。
【41题详解】
考查时态和主谓一致。句意：在与人交谈时，我们触摸对方的方式也存在一些差异。分析句子可知，空处作定语从句的谓语，且此处侧重表示“我们”触摸那个自己正在交谈的对象，时态应用现在进行时，且主语是we，be动词应用are。故填are talking。
【42题详解】
考查介词。句意：在法国和俄罗斯等国家，人们见面时亲吻朋友的脸颊。根据“kiss their friends”和“the cheek”可知，此处用固定短语kiss sb. on the cheek，意为“在某人脸颊上亲吻”，因此空处应用介词on。故填on。
【43题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：在其他地方，人们喜欢在见到别人时握手、鞠躬或点头。分析句子可知，空处和shaking、nodding一起作favour的宾语，因此应用bow的动名词形式。故填bowing。
【44题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：描述人们使用肢体语言的所有方式是不可能的。根据“It would be impossible”可知，此处用固定句型“It would be+形容词+to do sth.”，意为“做某事怎么样”，其中It为形式主语，不定式为真正的主语，因此空处应用describe的不定式形式。故填to describe。
【45题详解】
考查定语从句。句意：只要记住“入乡随俗”，这可以让你看起来更自信或直接。分析句子可知，空处引导非限制性定语从句，对前面的谚语作补充说明，先行词指物，在从句中作主语，因此应用关系代词which作引导词。故填which。

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。
Tom worked for a company that helped people buy or sell houses. One day, he took the bus home. The bus dropped him a few blocks away from his home, so be walked the rest of the way. As he was nearing his home, he saw a man begging for money. He took out some coins to give the man. “Hey, man. How are you today ” Tom asked.
“Hello, sir. I’m doing all right, I guess,” the man replied, smiling at Tom. “I need to feed my children. This is a huge help. Thank you.” Tom wished him good luck, and went on his way. He felt great about helping out. But he hoped there was more he could do to this poor man, although he himself wasn’t rich at all.
During the following days, Tom tried to give the man some money and bring him food when he passed by him.
Actually, the man, named Adam, begged for money to feed the many homeless dogs he had brought to his home. He had a job at night at a construction site. But the money made there wasn’t enough for him to care for the dogs which he considered as his kids, so he had to beg for money. However, Tom didn’t know about it.
One day, Tom stopped at the newsstand (报摊) on the street. And the owner asked him, “Why do you always give that man money ” Tom explained that man had to feed his family. “But that man doesn’t have a family or any kids,” the owner said, not knowing the truth.
Tom angrily walked away, thinking that man lied to him. He walked to where he knew the man was begging for money and met him. “I know you don’t have children. Stop lying to people. If you need a job, I can help you. This is just wrong,” Tom said angrily. The man stood up and explained, “Sir, I’m not lying at all.” Hearing Adam’s words, Tom said, “Prove it.”
注意：
1. 续写词数应为150左右；
2. 请按如下格式作答。
Adam nodded, asking Tom to follow him to his house.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Feeling sorry, Tom decided to do something to help Adam care for his dogs.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】One possible version:
Adam nodded, asking Tom to follow him to his house. Tom agreed. On the way, he was doubtful and still angry. “We’re e in,” Adam said, pointing towards a worn-out house on a empty lot. Getting inside, Tom was surprised to see many dogs. They all gathered around Adam, happily dancing and barking. “I adopted these poor, homeless dogs. I considered them my kids,” Adam said. Then he explained why he had to beg for money.
Feeling sorry, Tom decided to do something to help Adam care for his dogs. Tom said sorry to Adam and petted some dogs that approached him. He sat down with Adam and they talked further. Finally Tom decided to take one dog home so he could care for it. Tom also began encouraging animal shelters and other people to help Adam and his dogs. Many people came with dog food, medicine, etc. At last Adam had a better housing situation, and he continued helping dogs. Tom never judged another person without knowing the whole story ever again.
【解析】
【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了Tom在回家的路上遇到了乞讨的Adam，虽然自己也并不富裕，但是他给了Adam一些硬币，Adam说自己需要养活孩子，非常感谢Tom。接下来的几天里，Tom继续给Adam一些钱和食物。实际上Adam有一份夜间的工作，但是赚的钱不够他照顾家里的那些流浪狗，所以不得不乞讨。一天Tom从报摊的摊主那里得知Adam没有家庭，也没有孩子，认为Adam对自己撒谎了，非常生气，于是劝说Adam不要再撒谎，Adam解释说自己没有撒谎，Tom要求他证明这一点。
【详解】1. 段落续写：
①由第一段首句内容“Adam点点头，让Tom跟他去他家。”可知，第一段可描写Adam家里的情形，以及Adam向Tom解释实情。
②由第二段首句内容“Tom感到很抱歉，他决定做点什么来帮助Adam照顾他的狗。”可知，第二段可描写Tom决定收养一只狗以帮助Adam，以及Tom鼓励更多的人来帮助Adam和他的狗。
2. 续写线索：Adam带Tom去自己家——Adam家里的情形——Adam解释——Tom感到抱歉——Tom收养狗——Tom鼓励更多人来帮助Adam

New York City streets are full of similar-looking yellow cabs (出租车). Among them, however, there is the Candy Cab—a free candy store on wheels.
Mansoor Khalid, a taxi driver, started handing out candy in 2012, following the death of his one-year-old son, who suffered from a serious heart disease. While his son was in hospital, Mansoor often took coffee and candy for the nurses and saw how happy these small gestures made them.
Wanting to feel some joy again, he began putting a couple pieces of candy on the passenger seats, just to see their faces light up. Those few pieces soon became piles and piles of candy, as Mansoor Khalid realized that the candy made everyone smile and “Candy Cab” was born! The kind man, who spends over $300 each month on the candy, says that seeing his customers happy makes his job more fun.
There is a sign in the cab that reads, “No eating or drinking inside this car except candies.” The driver even offers a free ride to any passenger that can finish all the candy that he puts in front of them—So far, no one has been able to meet the challenge.
Not surprisingly, Mansoor Khalid gets plenty of smiles and hugs and also thousands of warm messages and videos on his overflowing Twitter, and Facebook accounts. But the best part about the Candy Cab is that you don’t need to rely on luck. Interested passengers can simply call it by sending him a message via one of his social media pages and they will be picked up at no extra cost.

A. To show his generosity. B. To remind himself of his son.

Online secondhand store thredUP has shown its tenth yearly Resale Report, which shows that the secondhand clothing industry is growing rapidly in the United States, as well as around the world. The secondhand market in the US is expected to more than double by 2026.
When choosing what to buy, people are increasingly experienced in what can be resold. More than one-fifth of Generation Z shoppers say they’ll pay more for the clothes that they know they can resell, and more than half of them resold clothes last year.
This is a much healthier opinion than storing out-of-style or ill-fitting clothes in a closet (衣柜). As resale becomes easier thanks to mobile technology and online stores, increasing numbers of customers hope to turnover their closets. This helps the industry and keeps the market full of fresh finds, bringing people back for more.
Buying or selling things secondhand helps to reduce people’s worry about the environment. As thredUP reported in 2021, buying or selling things secondhand reduces a product’s carbon Footprint (碳排放量) by 82%. It requires far less water to produce. Besides, it’s a good way to save money.
Aja Barber said in her book: “Clothing is produced at a fast speed, so it is important that resale become a key part of people’s lifestyles. Accepting reuse is not always easy when we are faced with many choices — many of which encourage the buying of cheap, single-use clothes-but the rise of online resale is enabling people to make different choices and do so with pride and joy.”
It’s great to hear that resale is being accepted by more people, which can help us save money while protecting our planet.
8. What can we say about secondhand clothing according to the report
A. It is a fast-growing industry. B. It makes the market full of anxiety.
C. It is accepted by most people. D. It is more comfortable than new clothing.
9. How does the author feel about resale
A. Unclear. B. Worried. C. Doubtful. D. Supportive.
10. What does Paragraph 4 mainly focus on
A. The dangers of carbon footprint. B. The ways of reducing people’s worry.
C. The advantages of buying used clothes. D. The causes of environmental problems.
11. What did Aja Barber want to tell us
A. The clothing industry causes a lot of waste.
B. Online resale is changing people’s shopping habits
C. People are confused when faced with many choices.
D. Dressing styles are closely connected with social life
D
“Why do people enjoy saying that they are bad at math ” wonders Petra Bonfert, a professor of engineering at Dartmouth College. After seeing too many examples of adults “passing on mathematical anxiety like a virus, ”Bonfert has an important message for math phobic (恐惧的) parents and educators: “We are passing on from generation to generation the fear for mathematics. ”
Many people hold the view that math is incredibly hard, and only people with an inborn mathematical ability can understand it. While well-meaning adults may think they’re encouraging kids by sharing their own math fears, research has shown the opposite. Research has found that the problem is particularly significant for girls, who “are cspecially affected when a teacher publicly announces dislike of math before she picks up the chalk.” Moreover, a study published recently reported that female mathematical achievement was diminished in response to a female teacher’s mathematical anxiety. The effect was obvious: the bigher a teacher’s anxiety, the lower the scores. Parents’ anxiety about math can have a similar effect on kids’ achievement and their attitude toward the subject.
Fortunately, Sian Beilock, a scientist of Barnard College, has found a surprisingly easy way for parents to stop passing on math anxiety and build their children’s math confidence. The most important finding is the importance of normalizing math at home in a way that’s relaxing and playful: from using math-themed books and stories, playing with math games and toys to cooking together. He argues that we need to teach kids that working on mathematical skills is like practicing a sport. Neither can be learned by watching others perform the activity and both require encouragement and effort. You do not need an inborn mathematical ability in order to solve mathematical problems. Rather, what is required is perseverance, a willingness to take risks and feeling safe to make mistakes.”
12. Why do some people share their math fear with kids
A. To expect kids to learn from their mistake.
B. To prove only geniuses can learn it well.
C. To give encouragement to their kids.
D. To stress the importance of genetic factors.

If you need a job, I can help you. This is just wrong,” Tom said angrily. The man stood up and explained, “Sir, I’m not lying at all.” Hearing Adam’s words, Tom said, “Prove it.”
