are

some

beautiful

classic

road-tripping

routes

in

California.

Pacific

Coast

Highway

（PCH）

There

are

wonderful

options

including

dramatic

sea

cliffs，sun-soaked

surfing

towns，playful

harbor

seals

and

the

Golden

Gate

Bridge.You'd

better

avoid

driving

here

in

the

spring

and

summer

months，when

the

central

and

northern

coastline

can

be

socked

in

by

fog

and

the

rainy

season

can

lead

to

landslides.Instead，September

and

October

will

yield

the

sunniest

skies

and

some

of

the

best

weather

as

you

spend

a

week

checking

this

beauty

off

your

bucket

list.

Highway

49

（Hwy

49）

That

highway

number

is

significant：It

is

in

memory

of

the

49

people

who

came

seeking

for

fortune

in

California's

original

Gold

Rush.Today

the

route

winds

through

Gold

Country

towns

such

as

Placerville

and

Nevada

City，past

ghostly

Old

West

mines

and

Victorian

buildings.Hwy

49

comes

mighty

close

to

Yosemite

National

Park

（15

miles）

and

Lake

Tahoe

（75

miles），both

of

which

are

good

places

for

family

camping.

Enjoy

your

trip

on

America's

"Mother

Road"，which

brought

Dust

Bowl

refugees，Holly-wood

starlets

and

to

California.Drive

slowly

from

the

one

of

the

most

justifiably

celebrated

drives

in

California.The

best

time

is

in

the

morning

when

sunlight

glints

off

dew-drenched

ferns.Among

the

majestic

Morning

Britain

（GMB）

launches

special

"listening

benches"

in

order

to

solve

loneliness.EastEnders

star

Maisie

Smith

joined

Susanna

and

Martin

in

the

studio

to

talk

about

her

involvement

in

a

special

part

of

the

1

Million

Minutes

campaign

—

GMB's

special

"listening

benches"

across

the

country.

Six

special

"listening

benches"

have

been

designed

by

six

celebrities，and

can

be

found

in

six

cities

across

the

UK

—

and

they're

in

place

to

encourage

people

to

strike

up

a

conversation.Maisie

joined

the

show

to

share

why

the

campaign

is

important

to

her.

"I'm

always

very

open

about

mental

health，"

Maisie

explained.

"It

doesn't

matter

who

you

are，where

you're

from，what

you

have

—

everyone

is

going

through

something

and

I

just

think

the

world

would

be

a

kinder

place

if

everyone

understood

that."

"I

think

especially

growing

up

in

the

limelight

（引人注目）

as

a

teenager，you're

very

judgemental

of

yourself

when

you

do

see

comments

of

other

people

judging

you.It

can

add

to

the

stress

of

the

things

you

re

already

going

through.I

think

people

do

think

I'm

confident

because

I

cover

my

nerves

with

a

big

smile

and

that's

what

I've

been

doing

in

my

whole

life."

Susanna

asked

Maisie

if

she

had

a

technique

for

dealing

with

her

nerves.

"It

depends

on

what

it

is，"

said

Maisie.

"A

lot

of

the

time

—

and

it's

going

to

sound

really

stupid

—

but

I

write

a

script.I

write

down

all

of

the

questions

that

I

could

be

asked

and

try

to

come

up

with

something

so

that

my

brain

won't

go

blank

when

I'm

under

pressure.4.What

is

the

theme

of

"listening

benches"？

A.Caring

for

oneself. B.Changing

the

D.Preparations

before

riding

might

not

seem

like

a

typical

New

York

City

activity，but

one

program

has

several

horse

farms

throughout

the

city's

busy

districts.GallopNYC

provides

lessons

to

veterans（老兵）

and

people

with

disabilities

—

horseback

riding

is

their

therapy（疗法）.

Olivia

Diver

visits

the

GallopNYC

location

in

the

Howard

Beach

neighborhood

in

Queens.Diver

has

only

been

riding

horses

for

a

few

months，but

says

she's

already

felt

the

benefits.

"It

helped

me

come

out

of

my

comfort

zone

and

be

less

shy

and

less

in

my

shell，"

she

said.Trying

something

new

shows

her

she

can

accomplish

other

things

as

well.

James

Wilson，executive

director

at

GallopNYC，says

there

are

many

ways

horses

can

be

therapeutic.

"The

horse

sees

the

world

in

the

way

somebody

with

post-traumatic

stress

disor-der

（PTSD）

might

see

the

world，in

a

really

guarded，sort

of

anxious

way，"

he

explained.

"So，somebody

with

PTSD

and

a

horse

can

sort

of

partner

together

and

see

the

world

in

the

same

way

and

kind

of

take

care

of

each

other."

Horses

can

also

help

with

physical

disabilities.After

two

years

of

therapeutic

riding，a

teenager，who

had

so

little

core

strength

that

his

mother

had

to

be

in

the

bathtub

with

him，had

enough

core

strength

that

he

could

be

in

the

shower

by

himself.Wilson

said，

"The

movement

of

the

horse

will

loosen

up

muscles

that

might

be

really

tight.And

the

movement

helps

stimulate

other

body

parts

and

other

muscles

that

you

might

not

use.

"

"CallopNYC

has

about

1，000

people

on

is

waitlist

for

lessons，but

prioritizes

people

with

disabilities

and

veterans.We

believe

that

everybody

benefits

from

the

time

on

a

horse，so

if

you

want

to

ride

a

horse，come

on，let's

go，"

Wilson

said.Lessons

are

﹩

55，but

the

non-profit

fundraises

to

help

cover

or

lower

the

cost

for

customers

who

may

need

support.8.Why

does

GallopNYC

offer

the

lessons？

A.To

make

horse

riding

typical

in

NYC.

B.To

provide

part-time

jobs

for

veterans.

C.To

promote

disabled

people's

incomes.

D.To

offer

a

cure

to

special

groups.9.What

can

we

infer

about

Olivia

Diver？

A.She

has

learned

new

life

skills.

B.She

has

found

her

comfort

zone.

C.She

has

gained

much

confidence.

D.She

has

changed

her

attitude

to

horses.10.What

does

paragraph

3

intend

to

show？

A.GallopNYC's

leader.

B.The

effect

of

the

therapy.

C.Profit

James

Wilson

has

got.

D.Ways

of

guarding

people's

anxiety.11.What

does

Wilson

think

of

the

program

according

to

the

last

paragraph？

A.It

is

well

received. B.It

is

highly

profitable.

C.It

needs

to

be

more

creative. D.It

takes

ages

to

see

the

results.DScience

reporting

on

climate

change

does

lead

Americans

to

adopt

more

accurate

beliefs

and

support

government

action

on

the

issue，but

these

gains

are

fragile，a

new

study

suggests.Researchers

found

that

these

accurate

beliefs

fade

quickly

when

people

are

exposed

to

coverage

skeptical

of

climate

change.

"It

is

not

the

case

that

the

American

public

does

not

respond

to

scientifically

informed

reporting

when

they

are

exposed

to

it，"

said

Thomas

Wood，associate

professor

of

political

science

at

the

Ohio

State

University.

"But

even

truly

accurate

science

reporting

recedes

from

people's

frame

of

reference

very

quickly."

Results

showed

that

accurate

science

reporting

didn't

persuade

only

politicians

and

people

who

initially

rejected

human-caused

climate

change

also

had

their

opinions

shifted

by

reading

accurate

articles.The

study

involved

2，898

online

participants

who

participated

in

four

waves

of

the

experiment

during

the

fall

of

2020.

In

the

first

wave，they

all

read

authentic

articles

in

the

popular

media

that

provided

information

reflecting

the

seientifie

views

on

climate

change.In

the

second

and

third

waves，they

read

either

another

scientific

article，an

opinion

article

that

was

skeptical

of

climate

science，or

an

article

on

an

unrelated

subjeet.In

the

fourth

wave，the

participants

simply

were

asked

their

beliefs

about

the

science

of

climate

change

and

their

policy

attitudes.

To

rate

participants'

scientific

understanding.the

researchers

asked

after

each

wave

if

they

believed

that

climate

change

is

happening

and

has

a

human

cause.To

measure

their

attitudes，researchers

asked

participants

if

they

favored

government

action

on

climate

change

and

if

they

favored

renewable

energy.

"What

we

found

suggests

that

people

need

to

hear

the

same

accurate

messages

about

climate

change

again

and

again.If

they

only

hear

it

once，it

recedes

very

quickly，"

Wood

said.It

was

significant

that

accurate

reporting

had

positive

effects

on

all

groups，including

those

who

originally

rejected

climate

change.But

it

was

even

more

encouraging

that

it

affected

attitudes.12.What

does

the

underlined

word

"recedes"

in

paragraph

2

mean？

A.Increases. B.Graduates. C.Disappears. D.Strikes.13.What

does

paragraph

4

mainly

tell

us？

A.The

research

object. B.The

research

result.

C.The

research

purpose. D.The

research

procedure.14.Why

did

researchers

ask

participants

the

second

question？

A.To

survey

the

government's

satisfaction

rate.

B.To

make

an

assessment

on

their

attitudes.

C.To

teach

them

scientific

understanding.

D.To

on

can

be

the

for

Change二、阅读七选五（本大题共5小题，共10.0分）Anxiety

can

be

treated

with

medication.（1）

.So，what

else

can

be

done

to

help？Here

are

three

ways

for

your

reference.

Lavender

（薰衣草）

Evidence

suggests

that

lavender

may

be

as

effective

as

medicine

in

improving

common

and

persistent

anxiety.

（2）

.Lavender

has

no

sedative，making

it

a

safe

alternative.

Researchers

found

that

the

smell

seemed

to

help

mice

relax，allowing

them

to

explore

brightly

lit

and

unfamiliar

territory.

（3）

.That

is

probably

because

they

were

more

anxious.

Talking

therapies

（4）

.A

psychologist

explained，

"Cognitive

behavioural

therapy

（CBT）

teaches

us

to

become

aware

of

the

thoughts

and

body

sensations

that

make

up

our

anxious

experience.It

takes

courage

and

can

feel

counter-intuitive，but

when

we

approach

anxious

thoughts

and

body

sensations

（tension

in

muscles，knot

in

the

stomach）

with

curiosity

and

kindness-rather

than

trying

to

fight

them-we

give

anxiety

less

power."

Mindfulness

Mindfulness

meditation

can

be

an

excellent

way

of

returning

our

anxious

mind

back

to

the

present.The

object

of

our

focus

may

be

the

sensations

in

our

body

as

we

sit

or

walk

or

breathe

or

it

may

be

some

external

stimuli

such

as

sound

or

an

object.

（5）

A.We

worry

for

many

reasons

B.It's

thought

to

make

the

brain

calm

C.Mice

were

used

in

their

experiment

to

test

this

therapy

D.Mice

not

exposed

to

lavender

preferred

to

hide

in

the

dark

E.Mindfulness

helps

us

see

what

is

here

at

the

present

moment

F.We

can

approach

anxiety

with

a

kind

and

courageous

attitude

G.However，experts

agree

other

approaches

may

also

be

effective16.

一、速读全文，了解大意知主题。

阅读能力一般指阅读速度和理解能力两个方面。阅读速度是阅读最基本的能力，考生必须在十分有限的时间内运用略读、扫读、跳读等技巧快速阅读，搜寻关键词、主题句，捕捉时空、顺序、情节、人物、观点，并且理清文章脉络，把握语篇实质。

二、看题干，带着问题读文章。

首先要掌握问题的类型，客观信息题可以从文章中直接找到答案；而主观判断题考查的是对文章的感情基调等，这类题必须经过对作者的态度、意图以及对整篇文章进行深一层的推理等。其次，了解试题题干以及各个选项所包含的信息，然后有针对性地对文章进行扫读，对有关信息进行快速定位。此法加强了阅读的针对性，提高了做题的准确率。

三、逻辑推理，做好深层理解题。

在实际阅读中，有时作者并未把意图说出来，阅读者要根据字面意思，通过语篇逻辑关系，研究细节的暗示，推敲作者的态度，理解文章的寓义。要求读者对文字的表面信息进行分析、挖掘和逻辑推理，不能就事论事，以偏概全。推理题在提问中常用的词有：infer，imply，suggest，indicate等。

四、猜词悟义，扫除阅读拦路虎。

猜词是应用英语的重要能力。它不但需要准确无误地理解上下文，而且要有较大的泛读量，掌握或认识较多的课外词汇。我们要学会"顺藤摸瓜"，通过构词，语法，定义，同位，对比，因果，常识，上下文等线索确定词义。

12~15.【答案】C、D、B、A【解析】（1）词义猜测题。根据本段前一句It

is

not

the

case

that

the

American

public

does

not

respond

to

scientifically

informed

reporting

when

they

are

exposed

to

it（美国公众在接触到科学报道时，并不是没有反应）结合划线词所在句子可知，这里意思是"但即使是真正准确的科学报道也会很快从人们的参照系中消失。"，划线词意为"消失"，A．Increases增加；B．Graduates毕业；C．Disappears消失；D．Strikes击打。故选C。

（2）段落大意题。根据第四段内容，结合In

the

first

wave（在第一波中）、In

the

second

and

third

waves（在第二、三波中）以及In

the

fourth

wave（在第四波中）可知，本段主要讲述了研究的过程。故选D。

（3）细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中To

measure

their

attitudes，researchers

asked

participants

if

they

favored

government

action

on

climate

change

and

if

they

favored

renewable

energy.（为了衡量他们的态度，研究人员询问参与者是否赞成政府对气候变化采取行动，以及是否赞成可再生能源）可知，研究人员询问参与者第二个问题是为了评估他们的态度。故选B。

（4）主旨大意题。根据全文内容，结合第一段中Science

reporting

on

climate

change

does

lead

Americans

to

adopt

more

accurate

beliefs

and

support

government

action

on

the

issue（一项新的研究表明，关于气候变化的科学报道确实会让美国人采取更准确的信念）和最后一段中It

was

significant

that

accurate

reporting

had

positive

effects

on

all

groups，including

those

who

originally

rejected

climate

change.But

it

was

even

more

encouraging

that

it

affected

attitudes.（重要的是，准确的报道对所有群体都有积极影响，包括那些最初反对气候变化的群体。但更令人鼓舞的是，它影响了人们的态度）可知，本文主要讲述气候变化的科学报道可以影响人们的思维。故选A。

这是一篇说明文。本文主要讲述一项研究表明，气候变化的科学报道可以影响人们的思维。

阅读理解题测试考生在阅读基础上的逻辑推理能力，要求考生根据文章所述事件的逻辑关系，对未说明的趋势或结局作出合理的推断；或根据作者所阐述的观点理论，对文章未涉及的现象、事例给以解释。考生首先要仔细阅读短文，完整了解信息，准确把握作者观点。

16~20.【答案】G、B、D、F、E【解析】（1）推理判断题。根据上文Anxiety

can

be

treated

with

medication.（焦虑可以用药物治疗。）以及下文So，what

else

can

be

done

to

help？Here

are

three

ways

for

your

reference.（那么，我们还能做些什么呢？这里有三种方法供你参考。）可知，本句与上文构成转折，指出焦虑也可以不用药物治疗。故G．However，experts

agree

other

approaches

may

also

be

effective（然而，专家们认为其他方法也可能有效）符合语境，故选G。

（2）细节理解题。根据上文Evidence

suggests

that

lavender

may

be

as

effective

as

medicine

in

improving

common

and

persistent

anxiety.（有证据表明，薰衣草在改善常见和持续的焦虑方面可能和药物一样有效。）以及下文Lavender

has

no

sedative，making

it

a

safe

alternative.（薰衣草不含镇静剂，是一种安全的替代品。）可知，薰衣草可以代替药物，即薰衣草也可以让大脑平静。故B．It's

thought

to

make

the

brain

calm（它被认为可以使大脑平静）符合语境，故选B。

（3）联系上文题。根据上文Researchers

found

that

the

smell

seemed

to

help

mice

relax，allowing

them

to

explore

brightly

lit

and

unfamiliar

territory.（研究人员发现，这种气味似乎能帮助老鼠放松，让它们探索明亮的灯光和不熟悉的领域。）以及下文That

is

probably

because

they

were

more

anxious.（这可能是因为它们更焦虑。）可知，本句承接上文继续说明研究的过程：没有接触薰衣草的老鼠更喜欢躲在黑暗里。故D．Mice

not

exposed

to

lavender

preferred

to

hide

in

the

dark（没有接触薰衣草的老鼠更喜欢躲在黑暗里）符合语境，故选D。

（4）段落主题题。根据下文A

psychologist

explained，

"Cognitive

behavioural

therapy

（CBT）

teaches

us

to

become

aware

of

the

thoughts

and

body

sensations

that

make

up

our

anxious

experience.It

takes

courage

and

can

feel

counter-intuitive，but

when

we

approach

anxious

thoughts

and

body

sensations

（tension

in

muscles，knot

in

the

stomach）

with

curiosity

and

kindness-rather

than

trying

to

fight

them-we

give

anxiety

less

power.（一位心理学家解释说："认知行为疗法（CBT）教会我们意识到构成焦虑体验的思想和身体感觉。这需要勇气，而且可能会让人感觉违背直觉，但当我们带着好奇心和善意去面对焦虑的想法和身体感觉（肌肉紧张，肚子打结）而不是试图与它们抗争我们就会减少焦虑的力量。"）可知，本段的内容主要是关于对待焦虑的态度。故F．We

can

approach

anxiety

with

a

kind

and

courageous

attitude（我们可以用一种温和的、勇敢的态度来对待焦虑）符合语境，故选F。

（5）联系上文题。根据上文Mindfulness

meditation

can

be

an

excellent

way

of

returning

our

anxious

mind

back

to

the

present.The

object

of

our

focus

may

be

the

sensations

in

our

body

as

we

sit

or

walk

or

breathe

or

it

may

be

some

external

stimuli

such

as

sound

or

an

object.（正念冥想是一种让我们焦虑的思绪回到当下的好方法。我们关注的对象可能是我们坐着、走着或呼吸时的身体感觉，也可能是一些外部刺激，如声音或物体）可知，本段主要关于正念冥想，E选项Mindfulness对应上文中Mindfulness。故E．Mindfulness

helps

us

see

what

is

here

at

the

present

moment（正念帮助我们看到此时此刻的事物）符合语境，故选E。

本文是说明文。文章介绍了不用药物就能缓解焦虑的三种方法。
