三、阅读理解题
题目分为若干组,每组题目基于同一个题干、实例或者案例展开。每题的备选项中,只有1个最符合题意。
Section A
Directions: In this section, there are four passages followed by questions or unfinished statements, each with four suggested answers A, B, C and D.Choose the best answer and mark your answer on the ANSWER SHEET.
Passage One
NASA astronaut Frank Rubio set a new record on Monday, Sept.11 for the longest single spaceflight conducted by a U.S.astronaut, after spending 371 days in space, and his mission isn’t over.
Rubio originally was scheduled to spend six months in space before his mission was extended to more than a year.Throughout his record-breaking mission, Rubio contributed to several science experiments geared toward understanding how spaceflight affects human physiology and psychology.
“Every day we spend up here, we know a little more about how the human body behaves in space,” Rubio explained.“We continue to do studies in the station that will help us when we continue exploring deeper and deeper into our solar system.”
Rubio is the first astronaut to participate in a study examining how exercising with limited gym equipment affects the human body.Recognizing that crew members traveling to the Moon and elsewhere will not have enough room in their spacecraft for a treadmill (跑步机), researchers are eager to determine whether other exercise plan could keep crews healthy on long missions.So rather than running on the space station’s treadmill, Rubio exercised only on the space station’s bicycle and weightlifting machine.
He is also one of a handful of astronauts to help researchers test whether an enhanced spaceflight diet can help humans better adapt to life in space.For this study, Rubio met with a specialist to create a customized diet loaded with nutrients, with an emphasis on foods such as fruits, vegetables, and fish.Scientists will evaluate whether consuming this diet boosted his immunity and improved how his body functioned.
For another experiment, Rubio helped nurture and monitor vegetables produced in the space station’s Vegetable Production System, or Veggie.Future deep space missions will require astronauts to grow fresh food in space as an alternative to prepackaged food.This Veggie study evaluates regulations for growing produce in space, and whether plants grown in microgravity can help satisfy the dietary needs of astronauts on more distant spaceflight missions.

Passage Two
Mainstream science is finally recognizing the medicinal properties of ant honey, a substance native Australians have been using for centuries to treat colds and sore throats.According to a new study, this sweet substance carries strong antimicrobial (杀菌的) properties.
Scientists from the University of Sydney’s Carter Lab, led by Professor Dee Carter, studied the Australian honeypot ant.This ant species is found in desert areas, mainly in Western Australia and the Northern Territory.The honey these ants make isn’t stored in cells in hives but inside other ants.Certain ants in their colonies are fed flower juice by other ants until their bellies swell to the size of grapes.Then when food is scarce, the honey-filled ants vomit up (吐出) their sweet liquid for the other ants to eat.
“For our people, honey ants are more than just a food source.Digging for them is a very enjoyable way of life and a way of bringing the family together,” says Danny Ulrich who operates honeypot ant tours in Western Australia.“Our people have been enjoying sweet honey ants for thousands of years.As for its medicinal use, we use it for sore throats and sometimes as a skin cream to help keep infections from getting worse.”
The study conducted by the Carter Lab marks the first time that ant honey has been investigated for its medicinal properties.The researchers found that ant honey possesses “unique” antimicrobial activity against bacteria.They confirmed that its mechanism of action is different from that of Manuka honey, a well-established treatment for wounds and skin infections.Manuka honey is produced from the flowers of a native New Zealand tree.
“Our research shows that honeypot ant honey possesses a distinctive effect that sets it apart from other types of honey,” says Dr.Kenya Fernandes from the Carter Lab team.“This discovery means that honeypot ant honey could contain compounds with substantial antimicrobial power; identifying these could provide us with starting points for developing new and different types of antibiotics.”

Passage Three
Coffee makes you happy.The researcher David Warburton observed what I could have told him without writing a study: A low dose of caffeine (咖啡因) can lead to a “significant increase in happiness and calmness and decrease in tenseness.” He also noted that, among the study participants, these effects did not come from alleviating a desire from a caffeine addiction; the effect was true, pure, and wonderful.A miracle, really.
Caffeine is a gift in ways besides happiness.Combined with exercise, it can improve cognitive performance, and if you’ve been sleeping less than optimally, it can enhance your reaction time and logical reasoning abilities.Remember this as you head out in traffic: The life your coffee saves could be your own.
Nothing in life is free, of course.Consuming more caffeine over time may lead to a state of tolerance, in which caffeine has a smaller effect after chronic use.However, this “problem” is really just an opportunity to enjoy more coffee.
Some people believe that the solution to tolerance is to hit the reset button.My wife is one of them: Recently, noticing the increases in my consumption over the years, she innocently proposed that I “take a little break” from coffee.The very suggestion made me fly into a rage.“Here’s an idea,” I replied, heart rate soaring.“Why don’t we just live apart for a year so it feels more like it did when we were first married?” An overreaction? I think not.
I’m at peace with the long-term effects of my devotion to coffee.Research from Japan shows that habitually drinking coffee reduces all-cause mortality.Studies in mice suggest that it does so by, among other things, encouraging autophagy, the biological process of cleaning out cellular trash, which naturally slows as we age.Coffee has also been found to reduce levels of fatty acid in the blood of aged mice, which has been linked to diabetes and cancer in humans.
Assuming that coffee does keep me alive for an extra few days or decades, I know how I’ll spend them: drinking more coffee, of darker and darker roasts, whose strong smell helps combat age-related loss of taste and smell.

Passage Four
Humans help each other—it’s one of the foundations of civilized society.But a new study by scientists at the University of California, Berkeley, reveals that a lack of sleep weakens this fundamental human attribute, with real-world consequences.
The study, led by UC Berkeley research scientists Eti Simon and Matthew Walker, adds to a growing body of evidence demonstrating that inadequate sleep not only harms the mental and physical well-being of an individual, but also compromises the bonds between individuals.
In the study, the scientists placed 24 healthy volunteers in a functional magnetic resonance imager (fMRI)(核磁共振成像仪) to scan their brains after eight hours of sleep and after a night of no sleep.They found that areas of the brain that form the mind network were less active after a sleepless night.“When we think about other people, this network engages and allows us to comprehend what other people’s needs are: What are they thinking about? Do they need help?” Ben Simon said.“However, this network was markedly impaired when individuals were sleep deprived.It’s as though these parts of the brain fail to respond when we are trying to interact with other people after not getting enough sleep.”
The scientists also tracked more than 100 people online over three or four nights, and measured the quality of their sleep—how long they slept, how many times they woke up—and then assessed their desire to help others, such as holding an elevator door open for someone else, volunteering or helping an injured stranger on the street.They found that a decrease in the quality of someone’s sleep from one night to the next predicted a significant decrease in the desire to help other people from one subsequent day to the next.
Looking at the big picture, a lack of sleep makes people less sympathetic and less generous.“Sleep, it turns out, is an incredible lubricant to connected and generous human behavior,” Simon said.“It is time as a society to abandon the idea that sleep is unnecessary or a waste and, without feeling embarrassed, start getting the sleep that we need.It is the best form of kindness we can offer ourselves, as well as the people around us.”

Section B
Directions: In this section, you are required to read one blog and the comments on it.The blog and comments are followed by questions or unfinished statements, each with four choices A, B, C and D.Choose the best answer and mark your answer on the Answer Sheet.
With the cost-of-living crisis biting, more people are considering living in alternative housing, particularly vans and houseboats.A recent study found that 51% of millennials (千禧一代) would be willing to live in an alternative dwelling to get a foot on the first step of the ladder, with 53% saying they would live in a van, and 33% up for living in a houseboat.
When you live in a van, there’s no mortgage or rent to pay, and there aren’t any utility bills.Your main expense will be petrol for the van, so you can lower your costs even further by staying in one place for as long as possible.This allows you to work fewer hours if you choose.Living in a van can be a liberating experience.Working less gives you more time to travel, enjoy hobbies, work on side projects, or simply relax and enjoy yourself.
Van life can seem enticing, with its reduced expenses and enhanced freedom.However, this lifestyle comes with many challenges and isn’t always as glamorous as it is portrayed on social media.Keeping yourself clean is one of the challenges of this lifestyle.A survey found that 28% of van lifers shower at the gym, 21% use built-in van showers, and 20% use campsite facilities, which normally come with a fee.A combined 13% said they bathe with baby wipes, or in rivers or seas.Although there is a range of sizes of vans and houseboats, none will offer you the same amount of space as most conventional homes.There are times when you feel very packed.
Comment 1:
Using a toilet while living in a van isn’t always an enjoyable topic to discuss.Some van dwellers use “pee bottles” or simply relieve themselves in the “open space” outside the van.This isn’t for everyone.
Comment 2:
We’re always on our own schedule and have been able to experience each destination in a totally different way.If we end up really liking a specific spot, we can choose to stay longer if we want.
Comment 3:
The size of the van can make for constant re-organisation of things, and a lot of bumping elbows.
Comment 4:
If your van or boat breaks down and needs to be repaired or replaced, this can leave you in a tricky situation as it is your home.Ours took almost a month to fix, and we had to get it towed 200 miles.Since we had to stay with family out of town we weren’t able to work.
Directions: In this section, you are required to read one blog and the comments on it.The blog and comments are followed by questions or unfinished statements, each with four choices A, B, C and D.Choose the best answer and mark your answer on the Answer Sheet.
With the cost-of-living crisis biting, more people are considering living in alternative housing, particularly vans and houseboats.A recent study found that 51% of millennials (千禧一代) would be willing to live in an alternative dwelling to get a foot on the first step of the ladder, with 53% saying they would live in a van, and 33% up for living in a houseboat.
When you live in a van, there’s no mortgage or rent to pay, and there aren’t any utility bills.Your main expense will be petrol for the van, so you can lower your costs even further by staying in one place for as long as possible.This allows you to work fewer hours if you choose.Living in a van can be a liberating experience.Working less gives you more time to travel, enjoy hobbies, work on side projects, or simply relax and enjoy yourself.
Van life can seem enticing, with its reduced expenses and enhanced freedom.However, this lifestyle comes with many challenges and isn’t always as glamorous as it is portrayed on social media.Keeping yourself clean is one of the challenges of this lifestyle.A survey found that 28% of van lifers shower at the gym, 21% use built-in van showers, and 20% use campsite facilities, which normally come with a fee.A combined 13% said they bathe with baby wipes, or in rivers or seas.Although there is a range of sizes of vans and houseboats, none will offer you the same amount of space as most conventional homes.There are times when you feel very packed.
Comment 1:
Using a toilet while living in a van isn’t always an enjoyable topic to discuss.Some van dwellers use “pee bottles” or simply relieve themselves in the “open space” outside the van.This isn’t for everyone.
Comment 2:
We’re always on our own schedule and have been able to experience each destination in a totally different way.If we end up really liking a specific spot, we can choose to stay longer if we want.

Directions: Translate the following passage into Chinese.Write your answer on the Answer Sheet.
When you’re enjoying the outdoors—whether you’re at a local park or camping in the wilderness—it’s important to minimize your impact on the environment around you.Anything you leave behind, even by accident, could be harmful to animals or plants.To reduce your impact on nature, practice the principles of “leave no trace”.That means leaving an area exactly as you found it when you arrived.Always look around to make sure you picked up everything you brought with you.It’s also best not to take items you find in nature.Rocks, shells, and sticks are part of the local ecosystem and should be left alone.
