1.

根据第一段中的Backthen,hisfamilytradedoratethem.Itwasn'taboutgettingrichasmuchasitwasjustapartoflife.（当时，他的家人用它们来交易或食用。这不是为了发财，而是生活的一部分。）可知，约翰尼·曼卢盖小时候猎杀海龟的原因是谋生。故选A。

2.

根据第四段内容（曼卢盖小心翼翼地把每颗蛋都放进随身携带的桶里，还从海龟窝里取出一些沙子，交给海岸水下资源管理行动组织(CURMA)，该组织负责海滩的保护项目。）可知，曼卢盖现在把海龟蛋交给一个保护组织。故选C。

3.

根据第七段中的Onaverage,seaturtleslay100eggsinanest.Thenumberofnestsinthearearangesbetween35and40eachseason,whichrunsfromOctobertoFebruary.（海龟平均每窝产100个蛋。该地区每个季节的巢穴数量在35到40个之间，从10月持续到2月。）可知，平均来说，一个季节在这个地区会产下3500到4000海龟蛋。故选C。

4.

根据第一段GrowingupinthePhilippines,...asmuchasitwasjustapartoflife.（在菲律宾长大的建筑工人约翰尼·曼卢盖每天晚上都会在海滩上搜寻海龟的蛋。他很清楚该找什么，因为他小时候就被祖父训练如何定位动物和它们的蛋。当时，他的家人要么交易，要么吃掉它们。这与其说是致富，不如说是生活的一部分。）根据第二段Manlugayhassinceturnedoveranewleaf.Instead,heuseshistrackingskillstoprotecttheseaturtlesthatvisitthebeacheshelivesby.（自那以后，曼鲁盖开始了新的一页。相反，他利用自己的追踪技能来保护那些造访他生活的海滩的海龟。）可知，短文报道了菲律宾前海龟蛋偷猎者成为保护者的故事。故选D。

8~11.【答案】D、B、A、C【解析】【文章大意】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了在我们的生活中，我们经常容易陷入比较陷阱，从而影响自己。专家建议我们要关注自己，和自己比较。

1.

根据文章第二段中的Althoughcomparingcanbegoodforyou,...baseyourfeelingsonhowwelltheyseemtobedoing.（虽然比较对你有好处，但并不总是有帮助的，你会发现自己陷入了比较的陷阱。这是指你总是拿自己和别人比较，把自己的感受建立在他们似乎做得有多好上。)可知，比较陷阱会让我们总是把自己的感受建立在别人的成就上。故选D。

2.

根据文章第三段中的Shesaysthatcomparisonscanmakeus...butitcanalsostopyouwantingtoimprove.（她说，比较会让我们自我感觉良好或糟糕。“攀比”是指看到别人做得比你好，并以此激励自己设定更高的目标，更加努力。然而，Goddard-Hill说：“有时它会让你对自己感觉很糟糕，打击你的信心。”“比差”是指你看到某人做得好像没有你好。Goddard-Hill说，这可能会让你觉得自己做得很好，但也会让你不想提高。)可知，攀比和比差都既有优点又有缺点。故选B。

3.

根据文章最后一段Finally,focusonyourownachievementsandhowyoucanimprove."Thebestpersonyoucancompetewithisyourself,"saysGoddard-Hill.（最后，关注你自己的成就以及如何提高。“你能与之竞争的最好的人就是你自己，”Goddard-Hill说。)可知，BeckyGoddard-Hill建议我们与自己竞争，力争做最好的自己就好。故选A。

4.

12~15.【答案】A、D、A、B【解析】【文章大意】本文是一篇新闻报道。文章主要讲述了“手机之父”马丁·库珀在接受采访时谈了自己对目前智能手机的一些看法以及他对智能手机未来的一些构想。

1.

根据划线单词后的定语从句“wherewesearch,connect,likeandbuy.(我们可以在那里搜索、连接、点赞和购买。)”可知，划线单词能同时让人们搜索、连接网络、点赞以及上网购物，因此划线单词指的是“智能手机”。故选A。

2.

根据文章第三段内容（库珀说他是个乐观主义者。他认为，移动技术的进步将继续改变人们的生活，但他担心智能手机会给隐私和年轻人带来风险。）可知，库珀对智能手机的未来持有乐观的态度，但是不乏抱有担忧。故选D。

3.

根据文章第五段Cooperseesadarksidetotheadvances,includingtherisktochildren.Oneidea,hesaid,istohave"variousInternetsintendedfordifferentaudiences."（库珀看到了这些进步的阴暗面，包括对儿童的风险。他说，其中一个想法是“为不同的受众提供不同的互联网”。)可知，马丁·库珀认为不同的受众应该被提供不同的互联网，也就是说应该给孩子提供不同的互联网。故选A。

4.

根据文章最后一段内容（他说，电池可能会被人的能量所取代。他认为，人体从食物中获取能量，所以它也可能为手机提供能量。例如，该设备可以放在皮肤下，而不是拿在手里。)可知，他认为未来的手机有可能从人体获得能量。故选B。

16~20.【答案】F、C、D、G、A【解析】【文章大意】本文为一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了一位63岁的退休警察HansenNicoRene帮助中国南部广西壮族自治区扎东村脱贫的故事。

1.

根据下文"ThefirsttimeIcametoZhadongvillage,Iwasimpressedbyitsnaturalbeauty.Theadobe(土砖)homesfitperfectlywiththegreenenvironment."recallsHansenNicoRene,a63-year-oldretiredpoliceman.(“我第一次来到扎东村，就被它的自然美景所打动。土砖房与绿色环境完美契合，”一位63岁的退休警察HansenNicoRene回忆道。)”可知，下文提到了HansenNicoRene，因此空处应该先介绍他的出现。选项F（2018年，一个来自卢森堡的男人的到来将他们的视野扩展到了各大洲。)介绍了下文退休警察的出现，与下文内容一致。故选F。

2.

根据下文Therewasafireplace,atable,andsomechairs.Thebathroom,iftherewasone,wasinthepigsty.Therewasverylittletosuggestthattheywerelivinginthe21stCentury.（房间里有一个壁炉、一张桌子和几把椅子。浴室，如果有的话，在猪圈里。几乎没有迹象表明他们生活在21世纪。)可知，下文描述了屋子里面的布置。选项C（但是当我进入这些房子时，我发现人们很穷。)引出下文屋内布置，与下文内容一致。故选C。

3.

根据下文"Peoplesurroundedhimoutofcuriosity.Theytookpicturesofhimwiththeirphones,asitwasthefirsttimewehadseenaforeignerinourvillage."（“人们出于好奇把他团团围住。他们用手机给他拍照，因为这是我们村里第一次见到外国人。”)”可知，下文是一个村民对HansenNicoRene第一次到村里时的场景的回忆。选项D（41岁的村民BiYonghong还记得他第一次见到Hansen的情景。)引出下文，与下文内容一致。故选D。4.

根据上文内容Duringthatvisit,HansenmetXieWanju,...

Isaidifyouneedhelp,Ihavetime,"

Hansensaid.（在那次访问中，Hansen会见了时任扎东市委第一书记谢万菊。“我们永远不会忘记我们相遇的第一刻，因为它改变了我的一生。我见过第一任党委书记，他在政府扶贫工作。太神奇了。我说如果你需要帮助，我有时间。”Hansen说。)可知，Hansen第一次和书记见面时就提出可以提供帮助。而下一段UnderHansen'sassistance,Xie,withthevillage'sofficialsandotherpovertyreliefworkers,developedfeaturedindustries,includingcattleandsheepraisingandfruitplanting.（在Hansen的帮助下，谢与村里的官员和其他扶贫工作者一起，发展了牛羊养殖和水果种植等特色产业。)可知，Hansen确实帮助了扎东地区人民脱贫。选项G（从那以后，他以一个新的身份为人所知——村里的第一书记助理。)与上文Hansen主动提出帮助相一致，同时也引出下文他确实帮助扎东地区的人民脱贫。故选G。5.

根据空前UnderHansen'sassistance,Xie,withthevillage'sofficialsandotherpovertyreliefworkers,developedfeaturedindustries,includingcattleandsheepraisingandfruitplanting.（在Hansen的帮助下，谢与村里的官员和其他扶贫工作者一起，发展了牛羊养殖和水果种植等特色产业。)可知，他们付出了很多努力；而空后ByNovember2020,...anewjourneytoruralvitalization(振兴).（到2020年11月，扎东村实现了全村脱贫。现在，当地政府正带领村民踏上振兴乡村的新征程。)可知，扎东村已经实现了全村脱贫。由此判断，他们的努力并没有白费。选项A（他们的努力得到了回报。)符合上下文内容。故选A。

21~35.【答案】A、B、D、A、B、A、C、B、C、D、D、D、C、A、C【解析】【文章大意】本文是一篇记叙文，文章主要讲述Botello凌晨在送餐途中遇到一个3岁小女孩并最终使她安全回家的故事。1.
