the

kingdom,there
are

that
we
can
hardly
pick
up
and
understand.Elephants,for
example,talk

B.Happy.C.Sad. D.Unclear.答案
D
解析
詞義猜測題。根據(jù)第一段中的“But
is
it
really
that
hard
to
read?”可知,很多人覺得蒙娜麗莎的微笑是難解讀的,也就是搞不清楚蒙娜麗莎的微笑,因此畫線詞ambiguous的意思是“不明朗的”,和unclear意思相近。故選D項。ⅠⅡⅢⅣ6.WhatisthepurposeofthestudyledbyKornmeier?A.Tocreatecopiesofalteredimages.B.Toansweracenturies-oldquestion.C.Toanalyzewhataffectshumans’visualjudgement.D.Todescribetheambiguoussmileofthemasterpiece.答案
C
解析
推理判斷題。根據(jù)第二段中的“Kornmeier,the
German
scientist,and
a
team
used
it
in
a
study
of
factors
that
influence
how
humans
judge
visual
clues
such
as
facial
expressions.”可知,Kornmeier領(lǐng)導(dǎo)的這項研究的目的是分析影響人類視覺判斷的因素。故選C項。ⅠⅡⅢⅣ7.Whatcanwelearnfromthefirstexperiment?A.Theexperimentwasrandomlyarranged.B.Theresultprovedtheoriginalassumption.C.Thecopiesdifferedin“MonaLisa’s”mouthcorner.D.Altogether30differentimageswereshowntotheparticipants.答案

of

Leonardo
da

team
moved
the
model’s
mouth
corners
slightly
up
and
down
to
create
eight
altered
images.They
created
four‘happier’and
four‘sadder’‘Mona
Lisas’.”可知,我們能從第一個實驗中了解到復(fù)制品的不同之處在于蒙娜麗莎的嘴角。故選C項。ⅠⅡⅢⅣ8.WhatwillKornmeieragreewithaccordingtothefindings?A.Humans’visualjudgementwillchangewithcontext.B.Humansarebetteratrecognizinghappinessthansadness.C.“MonaLisa’s”smileisrelatedwithpsychiatricdisorders.D.Thestudyresultcanbeusedtotreatpatientswithmentaldisorders.答案
A
解析
細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)最后一段中的“The
findings
confirm
that
‘we
don’t
have
an
absolute
fixed
scale
of
happiness
and
sadness
in
our
brain’—and

【語篇解讀】本文是一篇說明文。文章主要介紹了一些能讓人們幸福的事情。1.F
上文“But
experts
we
surveyed
emphasize
the
same
cocktail
of
ingredients:a
sense
of
control
and
independence,being
guided
by
meaning
and
purpose,and
connecting
with
others.”指出專家對幸福的看法,空處承接上文,繼續(xù)描述專家對幸福的看法,F項“他們基本上同意幸福是可以衡量和教導(dǎo)的”符合,其中“they”代指上文提到的experts。ⅠⅡⅢⅣ2.C
上文“Spending
time
with
family
outside
of
the
house,and
with
friends
in
a
non-professional
setting,are
strongly
recommended.The
majority
do
both
at
least
once
a
week.”提到我們要與家人待在屋外,與朋友在非專業(yè)的環(huán)境下相處,大多數(shù)人每周至少這樣做一次,空處承接上文,C項“許多人一周聚會三到四次”符合,與上文“The
majority
do
both
at
least
once
a
week.”為并列關(guān)系,列舉了人們這樣做的次數(shù)。3.D
上文“Mental
well-being
has
long
been
linked
to
sufficient
sleep,and
our
respondents
prioritize
getting
at
least
seven
hours
a
night.”提到受訪者都有一個共同的習(xí)慣就是充足的睡眠,D項“鍛煉或運動是另一個共同的習(xí)慣”指出受訪者其他的習(xí)慣,即鍛煉或運動,下文“Respondents
say
they
fit
it
in
three
to
six
times
weekly.”進(jìn)一步解釋了他們鍛煉或運動的頻次,it代指選項中的“Exercising
or
playing
sports”。ⅠⅡⅢⅣ4.G
下文“More
than
half
of
the
experts
report
doing
so
at
least
three
times
a
week.Emiliana
Simon-Thomas,science
director
at
the
University
of
California,notes
that
when
she’s
stressed,she
takes
a
walk
and
marvels
at
flowers,plants,birds,insects.”指出接近自然能讓人們感到幸福,G項“開啟幸福的另一個關(guān)鍵可能是接近自然”能概括本段內(nèi)容。5.A
上文“Jenn
Lim
reminds
herself
to
stay
curious
and
be
gentle
on
herself.‘If
it’s
within
my
control,then
I
can
act
better
on
it,’she
says.”可知,珍林認(rèn)為如果好奇心在自己的控制范圍之內(nèi),那么她可以做得更好,空處承接上文,繼續(xù)對此進(jìn)行描述,A項“如果沒有,她知道該放手”假設(shè)好奇心不在自己的控制范圍內(nèi)該如何做。Ⅲ.語法填空ⅠⅡⅢⅣItisfamiliartousChinesethattheyearof2023istheYearoftheRabbit,1.

考查非謂語動詞。此處表示前面動作產(chǎn)生的一種自然的結(jié)果,即屬預(yù)料之中的事,應(yīng)用現(xiàn)在分詞作結(jié)果狀語。7.taken
考查非謂語動詞。take與pictures是邏輯上的動賓關(guān)系,應(yīng)用過去分詞作定語。8.a

考查動詞的時態(tài)。根據(jù)till
now可知,此處使用現(xiàn)在完成時,主語是單數(shù),助動詞使用has。10.mysteries
考查名詞的數(shù)。mystery“奧秘”是可數(shù)名詞,前面有more,數(shù)量大于一,應(yīng)用名詞復(fù)數(shù)形式。Ⅳ.應(yīng)用文寫作ⅠⅡⅢⅣ假定你是李華,學(xué)校英文報以“VoluntaryWorkReallyCounts”為主題于上周末在學(xué)校展開了一次問卷調(diào)查。請你根據(jù)下列餅狀圖的調(diào)查結(jié)果用英文寫一份報告投稿,內(nèi)容包括:1.調(diào)查的目的;2.調(diào)查的結(jié)果;3.你的看法。ⅠⅡⅢⅣ注意:1.寫作詞數(shù)應(yīng)為80左右;2.請在相應(yīng)位置作答。ⅠⅡⅢⅣVoluntary
