B.Seniorcitizens.C.Emergencyworkers. D.Photographers.〖答案〗21.A22.C23.B【语篇解读】本文是一篇应用文。是关于一部新款手机的广告。【21题详析】细节理解题。根据文章Easytouse这一部分中“Today,cellphonesarehardtohear,difficulttodialandoverloadedwithfeaturesyoumayneveruse.That’snotthecasewiththeJitterbugFlip2.Alargescreenandbigbuttonsmakeiteasytocallfamilyandfriends,andthepowerfulspeakerensureseveryconversationwillbeloudandclear.(今天，手机听起来很难听，拨号很困难，而且有很多你可能永远用不到的功能。JitterbugFlip2的情况并非如此。大屏幕和大按钮让你可以轻松地给家人和朋友打电话，强大的扬声器确保每一次对话都清晰响亮)”可知，这款手机最大的卖点就是通过一个按键就可以得到帮助。故选A。【22题详析】细节理解题。根据倒数第三段“Limitedtime:70percentoffofferends11/29.(限时优惠：7折优惠11月29日结束)”以及倒数第二段“Toorderorlearnmore,cal订购或了解更多信息，请致电1877567067)”可知，在11月1日前拨打电话订购可以获得优惠。故选C。【23题详析】推理判断题。根据Easytouse这一部分中“Alargescreenandbigbuttonsmakeiteasytocallfamilyandfriends,andthepowerfulspeakerensureseveryconversationwillbeloudandclear.(大屏幕和大按钮让你可以轻松地给家人和朋友打电话，强大的扬声器确保每一次对话都清晰响亮)”以及Easytoenjoy部分中“Plus,theflashlightandbuilt-inmagnifierhelpyouseeindimlylitareas.(此外，手电筒和内置放大镜可以帮助你在光线昏暗的地方看清东西)”可推知，超大屏幕、超大按钮以及内置放大镜都是老年人所设计的。所以此手机的销售群体就是老年人。故选B。BHelenUffnerhasdressedBroadway,HollywoodandTVshowsformorethan40years.Buthigh-risedevelopersandAmazondistributioncentersaremakingitimpossibletostoreherextraordinaryvintage(古董衫)collection.HelenUffnerbeganherlovewitholdclothesasayoungteenager,troublingherfather,whoworriedthatpeoplewouldthinkhecouldnotaffordproperclothesforhisdaughter.Withtheprospect(前景)ofacareerinperiodfashionlackingpromise,shejoinedamanagementconsultancyaftercollege.Butsoonshedecidedtomonetize(把……转换成货币)herpassion.Overthenext40years,HelenUffnerestablishedacelebratedbusinessrentingoutvintageclothes.Initially,sheranthebusinessoutofherapartment.Bythelate1990s,shemovedtoa6,000-square-footspaceintheclothingdistrict.Challengesbeganin2006,whenthelandlordwassellingthebuildingandwantedherout.Atthesametimecommercialrentswereincreasingsharplyandthecity’sclothingindustryhadallbutdisappeared.Eventually,in2008,HelenUffnerVintageClothingmovedtoLongIslandCity.Thetransitionwasnoteasy.Butby2018,HelenUffnerfoundherselfinthesametrouble.Sheultimatelysettledintoanotherspaceonlytofacethedramaalloveragain—hercurrentbuildingisplannedforbeingtorndowntomakeroomfortheconstructionofahigh-rise.WhileCOVID-19hasreducedthepriceofofficerenting,vastwarehousespaceofthekindHelenUffnerneedsisatapremiumbecauseofthedemandcomingfromAmazonandothere-commercesites.Nowinher70s,HelenUffnerhasfoundtheprospectofmovingforafourthtimeespeciallytough.“Ihavebeenmakingthejokethattheemperorhasnoclothes,”HelenUffnersaid,“becausewhowillactuallydresshim.”24.WhatwasHelen’sfather’sattitudetowardherpassionforoldclothes?A.Hefeltnervousasherdreamwouldcostalot.B.Hefelthisdaughterwouldbefascinatedwithfashion.C.Hefeltworriedaspeoplemightthinkhecouldn’taffordclothesforher.D.Hefeltangryasitwouldbeawasteoftimeandmoney.25.WhydidHelenjoinamanagementconsultancyaftercollege?A.Tolaythefoundationforthepursuitofherultimategoal.B.Tomonetizeherpassionfortheclothingindustry.C.Toavoidthepossiblebadcareerprospect.D.Tofollowinthefootstepsofherfather.26.Whatdoestheunderlinedphrase“atapremium”probablymean?A.Beyondreach

尽管国王蛋糕是一种季节性食品，只在1月初吃，但墨西哥社会各阶层都喜欢它，因此需求很高。)”可知,国王蛋糕是一种季节性的食品，由此可知，这种蛋糕并不是一年四季都可以享用到。故选B项。【34题详析】细节理解题。根据第五段中的“Traditionally,Mexicanshaddecoratedtheirkingcakeswithacitron,acandiedelementfromaparticulartypeofcactus(仙人掌).Butthegovernmentprohibitedthatin2005duetotheimpactonthespecies.Otherfruitsarenowsubstitutedforit.(传统上，墨西哥人用acitron装饰他们的国王蛋糕，acitron是一种特殊仙人掌的糖化元素。但由于对物种的影响，政府在2005年禁止了这一行为。现在用其他水果代替它。)”可知，acitron是用一种特殊的仙人掌制成的，墨西哥人经常使用acitron装饰他们的国王蛋糕，因此，这会对acitron这种特殊植物的生长产生影响。故选D项。【35题详析】推理判断题。根据首段“Whiletortillas(玉米粉圆饼)cometomindwhenMexicoismentioned,everyJanuary6,Mexicans’loveofbreadreachesthehighestpointwiththecuttingofovalbrioche(奶油蛋卷)decoratedwithcandiedfruitknownaskingcakestocelebrateaspecialfestival.(一提到墨西哥，人们就会想到玉米饼，而每年的1月6日，墨西哥人对面包的热爱达到了顶峰，他们会切下椭圆形的奶油蛋卷，上面装饰着被称为国王蛋糕的蜜饯，以庆祝一个特殊的节日。)”可知，墨西哥人在1月6日对面包的热爱达到了顶峰，这种蛋卷上装饰着被称为国王蛋糕的蜜饯，引出本文讲述的国王蛋糕，结合下文对国王蛋糕是墨西哥文化的象征、国王蛋糕的起源以及发展等的介绍可知，文章的目的是介绍墨西哥的传统食物——国王蛋糕。故选A项。第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。NavigatingtheTransitiontoAdulthoodTheteenageyearsareatransformativeperiodoflife,atimewhenyouembarkonthejourneyfromchildhoodtoadulthood.It’saperiodfilledwithself-discovery,challenges,andpersonalgrowth.IdentityExploration:Oneoftheinitialchallengesduringadolescenceiswrestlingwithyouridentity.____36____Theseinquiriesofself-discoverycanleadtochangesinfriendships,interests,andevenyourgoals.AcademicandLifeSkills:Ashighschoolstudents,you’redealingwithacademicpressures,extracurricularactivities,andsocialrelationships.Balancingtheseaspectsoflifecanbechallenging,butit’sanopportunitytodevelopessentiallifeskills.TheRoleofFriendships:Friendshipsplayasignificantroleinyourteenageyears.Theycanoffersupportandsharedexperiences.____37____.Surroundyourselfwithfriendswhoupliftandrespectyou,andbeasupportivefriendinreturn.Decision-MakingChallenges:Decision-makingbecomesmorecrucialduringthisperiodoflife.____38____Don’tbeafraidtoseekguidancefromtrustedadultsormentorswhenfacedwithtoughchoices.Self-CareandMentalHealth:Self-careandmentalhealtharevitalforteenagegrowth.Duringthisperiod,adolescencebringssignificantpressure.___
