D.GreenCircle【答案】21.C22.C23.D【解析】【分析】本文是一篇应用文，文章主要介绍了维尔万豪山度假酒店的相关信息以及度假之前的考前须知。【21题详解】细节理解题。根据小标题BestTimetoVacation局部的“DecemberthroughtoMarchtendstobethebesttime……(12月到3月往往是最好的时间……)〞可知去VailMarriottMountainResort滑雪的最正确时间是十二月到三月。应选C。【22题详解】细节理解题。根据小标题KnowBeforeYouGo下的“Youmightnotthinkaboutgettingsunburn,butithappenstoskiersandsnowboarderseveryday.(你可能没想过会被晒伤，但它每天都会发生在滑雪者和滑雪板上。)〞可知去维尔万豪山度假村时要带上防晒霜。应选C。【23题详解】推理判断题。根据小标题KnowBeforeYouGo下的Difficultylevels中的“Thesearetheeasiestslopes.(这些是最简单的滑道。)〞可知GreenCircle是最简单的滑道，由此可推知GreenCircle对于初学者是最正确选择。应选D。BWhenafirebrokeoutinmyhomeinthemiddleofthenight,IknewI'ddoanythingIcouldtosavemyfamily.ThemedicinethatItakeformyrheumatoidarthritiscausesmetowakeupinthemiddleofthenightwithadrymouth.January15,2021,wasnodifferent.I,Indiana,US,awokeat2:30amneedingwater.IwaswalkingbackupstairsfromthekitchenwhenIheardmybulldog,Rock.WhateverRockwasdoingdownthere,itmadeenoughnoiseformetogotohim.BythetimeImadeittothebottomofthestairs,hewasrunningup,andhenevercameupthestairs,nomatterwhat.Ithinkthatwashiswayoftellingme,"We'vegottogobackup."WhenIgottothetopofthestairs,Iturnedaroundandsawalighton,butIdidn'trememberleavingoneon.Iwalkeddownstairsagain,andthat'swhenIsawfire.Iimmediatelyshoutedtomywifetowakeupandgetourthreekids.Igrabbedaknifeandcutouttheplasticthatcoveredthewindowtotheporchroof.Ithenpriedopenthewindowandkickedoutthescreen.Istartedscreamingforhelp.Buthelpnevercame.Igoteverybodyoutontheroofandthrewablanketouttheresowewouldn'tslipoff.Itwascold,Januarycold.ThenIstartedscreamingforhelp.Buthelpnevercame.Now,I'mscaredofheightsandhavephysicalissues,whatwithmyrheumatoidarthritis,butIcouldn'tletmyfamilyburnup.SoIjumpedofftheroof.Ididn'tscoottotheedge;IjustjumpedandgotthewindknockedoutofmewhenIlanded.Ifoundourladder,placeditagainstthehouse,andclimbedbackuptotheroof.Iwrappedmyarmsaroundmydaughterandcarriedmynine-month-oldwithmyteeth,byhislittlesleeper.ThenIclimbeddowntheladder.Onceontheground,Ihadmylittlegirlholdherbrother,andIwentbackuptotherooftogetmyotherdaughter.ThenIwentbackupagainandgotmywife.Itriedtogetmydog,buthejustdisappearedintheblacksmoke.Ineversawhimaliveagain,I'mnohero.I'mjustanordinarypersonwho'dhelpanybody.ThishappenedtobethetimewhenIhelpedmyownfamily.Ilivetoprotectmyfamily.JustlikeRock—helivedtoprotectus.24.Whatmadetheauthorwakeupat2:30am?A.Mydog'sbarking

D.Strongandconsiderate【答案】24.B25.C26.B27.A【解析】【分析】这是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述作者在半夜发生的火灾中营救和保护家人的经过。【24题详解】细节理解题。根据第一段“ThemedicinethatItakeformyrheumatoidarthritiscausesmetowakeupinthemiddleofthenightwithadrymouth.January15,2021,wasnodifferent.I,Indiana,US,awokeat2:30amneedingwater.〔我服用的治疗类风湿性关节炎的药物使我在半夜醒来时口干舌燥。2016年1月15日【25题详解】细节理解题。根据第二段“Rockwasdoingdownthere,itmadeenoughnoiseformetogotohim.BythetimeImadeittothebottomofthestairs,hewasrunningup,andhenevercameupthestairs,nomatterwhat.〔Rock在下面，吵得让我不得不去找他。当我爬到楼梯下面的时候，他正在往上跑，之前不管发生什么，他从来没有上过楼梯。〕〞可知，Rock通过不停地叫，并且跑到楼梯上来引起作者的注意，告知作者发生的危险。应选C项。【26题详解】细节理解题。根据第二段“Igoteverybodyoutontheroofandthrewablanketouttheresowewouldn'tslipoff.Itwascold,Januarycold.ThenIstartedscreamingforhelp.Buthelpnevercame.〔我把所有人都弄到屋顶上，扔了一条毯子在外面，这样我们就不会滑倒了。天气很冷，一月很冷。然后我开始尖叫求救。但一直没有人来帮助。〕〞可知，作者把所有家人都弄到屋顶上之后开始大喊求助。应选B项。【27题详解】推理判断题。根据第三段“Now,I'mscaredofheightsandhavephysicalissues,whatwithmyrheumatoidarthritis,butIcouldn'tletmyfamilyburnup.SoIjumpedofftheroof.〔现在，我有恐高症和身体问题——类风湿关节炎，但我不能让我的家人被烧伤。所以我从屋顶跳下来。〕〞和最后一段“I'mnohero.I'mjustanordinarypersonwho'dhelpanybody.ThishappenedtobethetimewhenIhelpedmyownfamily.Ilivetoprotectmyfamily.JustlikeRock—helivedtoprotectus.〔我不是英雄。我只是一个愿意帮助任何人的普通人。这是我帮助自己家人的时候。我活着是为了保护我的家人。就像Rock一样他活着是为了保护我们。〕〞可知，作者有恐高症和身体问题，可是为了救自己的家人，他还是愿意从屋顶跳下来，他愿意负起保护家人的责任，所以可以推断他是个有勇气和负责任的人。应选A项。CThereisnosuchthingasa“safe"levelofdrinking,withincreasedconsumptionofalcoholassociatedwithpoorerbrainhealth,accordingtoanewstudy.Inanobservationalstudy,whichhasnotyetbeenpeer-reviewed,researchersfromtheUniversityofOxfordstudiedtherelationshipbetweentheself-reportedalcoholintakeofsome25,000peopleintheUK,andtheirbrainscans.Theresearchersnotedthatdrinkinghadaneffectonthebrain'sgraymatter-regionsinthebrainthatmakeup"importantbitswhereinformationisprocessed,"accordingtoleadauthorAnyaTopiwala,aseniorclinicalresearcheratOxford.“Themorepeopledrank,thelessthevolumeoftheirgraymatter,“Topiwalasaidviaemail."Brainvolumereduceswithageandmoreseverelywithdementia(痴呆症).Smallerbrainvolumealsopredictsworseperformanceonmemorytesting,“sheexplained."Whilealcoholonlymadeasmallcontributiontothis(0.8%),itwasagreatercontributionthanother"modifiable"riskfactors,"shesaid,explainingthatmodifiableriskfactorsare“onesyoucandosomethingabout,incontrasttoaging.〞Theteamalsoinvestigatedwhethercertaindrinkingpatterns,beveragetypesandotherhealthconditionsmadeadifferencetotheimpactofalcoholonbrainhealth.Theyfoundthattherewasno"safe"levelofdrinking-meaningthatconsuminganyamountofalcoholwasworsethannotdrinkingit.Theyalsofoundnoevidencethatthetypeofdrink—suchaswine,spiritsorbeer—affectedtheharmdonetothebrain.However,certaincharacteristics,suchashighbloodpressure,obesityorbinge-drinking,couldputpeopleathigherrisk,researchersadded.Therisksofalcoholhavelongbeenknown：Previousstudieshavefoundthatthere'snoamountofliquor,wineorbeerthatissafeforyouroverallhealth.Alcoholwastheleadingriskfactorfordiseaseandprematuredeathinmenandwomenbetweentheagesof15and49worldwidein2021,accountingfornearlyonein10deaths,accordingtoastudypublishedinTheLancetin2021.“Ithasbeenknownfordecadesthatheavydrinkingisbadforbrainhealth,"SadieBoniface,headofresearchattheUK'sInstituteofAlcoholStudies,saidviaemail."Wealsoshouldn'tforgetalcoholaffectsallpartsofthebodyandtherearemultiplehealthrisks.〞28.Whatisthefunctionofgraymatter?A.Controlthemountofalcohol

ostordinarypastintolegendswhichwarmstheheartandthebody.〞(怀旧可以把最平凡的过去变成传奇，温暖人心和身体。)可知，当我们回忆时，它可以给我们带来一些抚慰，所以选项B是怀旧的好处。选项C〔如果我们回忆起快乐的童年，我们很可能会引起注意〕在文中没有提及。应选C。【34题详解】推理判断题。根据最后一段最后一句“Youcan'thaveabettertomorrowifyouarethinkingaboutyesterdayallthetime.〞(如果你总是想着昨天，就不会有一个更好的明天。)可知，下面一段将会讨论过分沉溺于怀旧的不良影响。应选A。【35题详解】主旨大意题。根据第三段第一句“Butnewstudiessuggestthatamodestdoseofnostalgiaisnotonlyharmless,butactuallybeneficial.〞(但新的研究说明，适度的怀旧不仅无害，而且实际上是有益的。)可知，文章主要是讲怀旧的好处。应选B。第二节〔共5小题;每题2.5分，总分值12.5分〕阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最正确选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Manypeoplewanttobefamousandlivethelifeofacelebrity.Thesingingcompetitionisjustoneoutofhundredsthatpeoplehopetomakeasuccessofthemselves.____36____.Tip1:RealizeyourdreamsbyvisualizingthemfirstYoushouldhaveaclearvisionofwhatyou'dliketoachieve.____37____.Ifyoucanclearlyholdapictureofsuccessinyourmind,yoursubconsciouscanbringittopass.Inthebest-sellingbookThePowerofYourSubconsciousMind,authorJosephMurphysaid,"IfIactasthoughIam…Iwillbe.Tip2:AnalyzeyourcareermotivationsByunderstandingyourtruemotivations,you'llstandfirmaboutwhatyouare,willingtogiveupinordertosucceed.____38____.Withoutthislevelofself-awareness,youcaneasilygoastrayinthisbusiness.Astheysay,ifyoudon'tstandforsomething，youcaneasilyfallforeverything.Tips3:____39____.Expecttobeknockeddown,butlearnhowtogetupquicklyandseethelessonineverynegativeexperience.Realizeyoucan'tcontroleverythingthathappensinthiscrazybusiness,butyoucandefinitelycontrolyourattitude.Youmustfocusonthepositive.Tosurviveinthebiz.youmustbepreparedtofightforward.Tip4:Adapttochangebydiversifyingyourselfnow____40____Howtrue!Itreallydocspaytobroadenyourcareeropportunitiestoincreaseyourearningpotentialand“stayingpower"inthemusicbusiness.A.ExpecttheworsttohappenB.Everycareerrequiresqualificationsandspecialtraining.C.Youmustsee,feelandbelieveinthepotentialoutcome.D.You'llalsowillinglyaccepttheconsequencesofyouractions.E.RememberthatfindingyourpassionisablessingwithinitselfF.Ifyouaredeterminedtopursueacareerinthemusicindustry,youcanreadthesetips.G.ItwasCharlesDarwinwhooncesaid,“Itisnotthestrongestofspeciesthattendtosurvive:Itisthosethataremostadaptabletochange."【答案】36.F37.C38.D39.A40.G【解析】【分析】这是一篇说明文，对想要从事音乐事业的人提出了四点建议。【36题详解】根据下文四点建议和F选项中的tip可以看出F项“Ifyouaredeterminedtopursueacareerinthemusicindustry,youcanreadthesetips.〔如果你下定决心要在音乐行业开展，你可以阅读这些建议〕〞。下文的tips1-4与F项中的“tips建议〞相照应。应选F项。【37题详解】根据段落标题“Tip1：Realizeyourdreamsbyvisualizingthemfirst〔技巧1:首先通过可视化来实现你的梦想〕〞以及前文“Youshouldhaveaclearvisionofwhatyou'dliketoachieve〔你应该对你想要实现的目标有一个清晰的愿景〕说明了要有一个清晰的愿景，明确的方案。C项“Youmustsee,feelandbelieveinthepotentialoutcome.〔你必须看到、感觉到并相信潜在的结果〕〞对上文进行具体说明。根据语境可知，whatyou'dliketoachieve对应outcome。应选C项。【38题详解】根据前文“Byunderstandingyourtruemotivations,you'llstandfirmaboutwhatyo
