Pet adoption is the perfect
way to add a new family member. But if a pet is too young to be adopted, it must
be fostered (寄养) first. That's how a puppy
named Maggie that was rescued by the North Shore Animal League America (NSALA),
ended up being fostered by a sweet six-year-old boy.
The animal rescue organization
in Port Washington needed to find a foster home for Maggie because she needed to
be trained with basic obedience (顺从) skills and
to become comfortable with a home environment. NSALA put out a call for a foster
family.
Roman Duncan's family was
the lucky one chosen for the job. The boy fell in love with the puppy and was able
to be part of her growth during those formative months. The family always made it
clear to Roman that Maggie would eventually be adopted and move to a different home.
When it came time for Maggie
to be adopted, Roman couldn't hold his tears. He decided to write letters to the
puppy's future family. He wrote letters about his furry friend, saying "Maggie
is so cute and loves to play fetch. She is the best dog ever," and slipped
the notes and some photos into Maggie's paperwork.
The rescue team were surprised
and then incredibly touched by the notes they found when opening Maggie's file.
NSALA made sure that Roman's notes reached her adopted family. The boy's gesture
is exactly what pet fostering is about.
A dog or cat that has gone
through terrible sufferings such as being abusing needs to learn what it means to
live in a home. Fostering helps reduce the animal's stress and makes it trust people
again. It is also an opportunity for people who love pets but can't have them full-time
due to some restrictions. Pet fosters can get to enjoy helping a pet in need. If
you are interested in pet fostering, contact a local shelter or animal rescue near
you.
4．What happened to Maggie at first
A．She was released into the wild.
B．She was settled in a new home.
C．She was saved by a rescue team.
D．She was fostered by Roman's family.
5．Why did Roman write notes about Maggie
A．To express his mixed feelings. B．To preserve Maggie's paperwork.
C．To choose Maggie's future family. D．To help Maggie adapt to new home.
6．What is mainly discussed in the last paragraph
A．The benefits of pet fostering.
B．The access to fostering a pet.
C．A homeless animal's barriers.
D．The restrictions to adopting a pet.
7．What is the best title of the text
A．Maggie Lives Happily in a Comforting Foster Home
B．A Boy Writes Sweet Letter to Puppy's Forever Family
C．Pet fostering Plays Great Roles in Rescuing Lost Animals
D．Roman Duncan's Family Adopts a new Family Member

Nobody knows the value
of a good doll better than Jandrisevits. "Dolls have a power we don't completely
understand," she said. It's a conclusion she came to while working as a social
worker using dolls to help her young clients adapt to their changing medical situations.
Many of the kids saw themselves in those dolls. But for the kids missing a limb
or who had lost their hair, there were none they could relate to.
So, seven years ago, when
a friend revealed that her child was stuck in self-doubt and self-distrust, Jandrisevits,
now 49, knew what might help the youth through this potentially challenging period.
"It's hard to tell a kid, 'You are perfect the way you are, ' and to build
self-esteem (自尊) that way, but never offer
them anything that looks like them, "she says.
Jandrisevits went about
changing that. She crafted a doll by hand — using fabric, stitching, and
markers — that resembled (像) her friend's
child and sent it off. After the friend posted a photo online of the happy child
and doll, another woman asked Jandrisevits to make a doll that looked like her baby,
who was missing a leg.
Word spread, and soon Jandrisevits
was making dolls for children with scars, birthmarks, facial deformities(畸形), — in short, a doll that looked like them. She quit her job and started
a nonprofit, A Doll Like Me.
Working out of her home
in Milwaukee, from photos sent by parents or caregivers, it takes Jandrisevits roughly
three days to craft only one doll. A GoFundMe page helps her cover costs and allows
her to donate her services. She hasn't charged for a doll since she began her nonprofit.
In all, she's made more
than 400 dolls. The waiting list is long, but Jandriscvits will never give up. As
she explains on her GoFundMe page, "Every kid, regardless of gender, ethnicity,
age, medical issue, or body type, should look into the sweet face of a doll and
see their own."
8．What made Jandrisevits realize the value of dolls
A．The influence of dolls on her. B．Her working experience.
C．The changing medical situations. D．Her relation to the unlucky kids.
9．What does the underlined word ―that‖ refer to in paragraph 3
A．Children's concern about their looks.
B．The problems faced by the child of a friend.
C．The challenging period the youth are going through.
D．The fact that words alone fail to help build self-esteem.
10．What can be inferred about Jandrisevits' making dolls
A．It targets children with mental problems.
B．It is time-consuming but meaningful.
C．It is thought poorly of by people.
D．It brings in a good fortune.
11．Which of the following best describes Jandrisevits
A．Creative and caring. B．Ambitious and devoted.
C．Considerate and sensitive. D．Knowledgeable and generous.

Of the 7 billion people
on Earth, roughly 6 billion own a cellphone, which is pretty shocking, given that
only 4.5 billion have access to a working toilet.
So how are cellphones changing
us On average, people spend 4. 7 hours a day looking at their bined with
the length of time spent in front of computers, this has led to an increase in the
nearsightedness. In North America, in the 1970s about 1/4 of the population had
nearsightedness, where today nearly half do; and in some parts of Asia, 80 — 90%
of the population is now nearsighted.
And it can be hard to put
your phone down, take for example the game Candy Crush. As you play the game, you
achieve small goals causing your brain to be rewarded with little bursts of dopamine,
and eventually, you are rewarded with new contents of the game. This novelty also
gives little bursts of dopamine, and they together create what is known as a
"compulsion loop", which just happens to be the same loop responsible
for the behavior associated with nicotine or cocaine. According to a recent study,
93% of young people aged 18—29 report using their smartphones to avoid boredom.
Without their phones, they may suffer "nomophobia"—the fear or anxiety
of being without their phones.
Your smartphone can also
disrupt your sleep! The screen produces a blue light which has been shown to change
our biological clock, reducing the time spent in deep sleep, which is linked to
the development of diabetes, cancer, and obesity.
Of course, smartphones
also completely change our ability to access information, most notably in poor and
minority populations. 7% of Americans are entirely dependent on smartphones for
their access to the Internet.
So while phones are in
no way totally bad, and have been a part of positive change in the world, there's
no denying that they are changing us.
12．Why does the writer mention the near-sighted population in paragraph 2
A．To call on people to stop using cellphones.
B．To demonstrate the bad influence cellphones have on our eyes.
C．To show the eyesight differences between westerners and Asians.
D．To warn us that shortsightedness caused by computers is becoming worse.
13．How does a man with "nomophobia" probably feel if his phone isn't accessible
A．Anxious. B．Energetic. C．Addicted. D．Excited.
14．How do cellphones influence our sleep according to the writer
A．They provide too much exciting information that makes us sleepless.
B．They produce a special light that can cause less deep sleeping time.
C．They can lead to serious diseases related to sleeping problems.
D．They have clocks that ring too loud for us to fall asleep.
15．Which of the following can be the best title for the text
A．How Do Cellphones Change Us
B．Put Down Your Cellphone Now!
C．Can We Live Without Cellphones
D．Don't Let Cellphones Ruin Your Eyes!

二、任务型阅读（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）
（2022高二上·成都期中）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
They say that children learn languages the best. 　16． 　. We asked some of the polyglots (通晓多种语言的人) in TED's Open Translation Project to share their secrets to mastering a foreign language. Several basic principles are as follows.
Get real. Decide on a simple, achievable goal to start with so that you don't feel confused. German translator Judith Matz suggests: "Pick up 50 words of a language and start using them on people — 　17． 　."
Play house with the language. The more you invite a foreign language into your daily life, the more your brain will consider it something useful and worth caring about. "Use every opportunity to get involved in the new language," says Russian translator Olga Dmitrochenkova. 　18． 　, read kids' books written in it, watch subtitled TED and TEDx talks, or live-narrate parts of your day to an imaginary foreign friend.
　19． 　. Dmitrochenkova has a great idea: "A funny thing like resetting the language on your phone can help you learn new words right away," she says. Ditto for changing the language on your browser (浏览器). Or you can seek out more structured learning opportunities online. Dutch translator Els De Keyser recommends Duolinguo for its gamified (游戏化) approach to grammar, and Anki for memorizing vocabulary with its "intelligent" flashcards...
Make new friends. 　20． 　 — it will teach you to naturally express your thoughts, instead of mentally translating each sentence before you say it. Find native speakers near you. Or search for foreign penpals or set up a language connection online, where two volunteers help one another practice their own languages.
A. Let technology help you out
B. and look up them in the dictionary
C. Do not worry about making mistakes
D. and then slowly start picking up grammar
E. Communicating in the new language is key
F. But that doesn't mean that adults should give up
G. Stick every object in your house in this language
【答案】16．F；17．D；18．G；19．A；20．E
【知识点】七选五
【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了掌握外语的几个基本原则。
【点评】考查七选五，本文是一篇教育类阅读，要求在理解细节信息的基础上，着重考查对上下文的理解和推理判断能力。
16．根据空前“They say that children learn languages the best.”他们说孩子们学习语言最好；以及空后“We asked some of the polyglots (通晓多种语言的人) in TED's Open Translation Project to share their secrets to mastering a foreign language. Several basic principles are as follows.”我们邀请了TED开放翻译项目中的一些多语者分享他们掌握外语的秘诀。几个基本原则如下。可知此处讲掌握外语的几个基本原则。 F. But that doesn't mean that adults should give up “但这并不意味着成年人应该放弃”承上启下，符合语境，故选F。
17．根据空前“Pick up 50 words of a language and start using them on people”先找50个外语单词，用它们来跟别人交流。可知，Judith Matz建议先选择所学语言的50个单词在真实场景中使用，然后慢慢学习语法，上下文先后关系， D. and then slowly start picking up grammar “然后慢慢开始学习语法”符合语境，故选D。
18．根据空后“read kids’ books written in it, watch subtitled TED and TEDx talks, or live-narrate parts of your day to an imaginary foreign friend.”读用那门语言写的童话，看有字幕的TED演讲，或者跟你想象中的外国朋友讲述一些一天里发生的事。可知，此空与后文两个分句构成平行关系，它们都是在家使用语言的日常场景， G. Stick every object in your house in this language “把家里的每一件物品都用这种语言粘起来”也呼应空前“Play house with the language.”和语言玩过家家，故选G。
19．根据空后“Dmitrochenkova has a great idea: ‘A funny thing like resetting the language on your phone can help you learn new words right away,’ she says. Ditto for changing the language on your browser (浏览器). Or you can seek out more structured learning opportunities online. Dutch translator Els De Keyser recommends Duolinguo for its gamified (游戏化) approach to grammar, and Anki for memorizing vocabulary with its ‘intelligent’ flashcards...”德米特罗琴科娃有一个很好的主意：“重新设置手机语言就能让你马上学到新单词，”她说。同样，你也可以在浏览器上更改语言。或者在网上找一些更系统的学习资源。荷兰语翻译家埃尔斯·德·凯瑟推荐用“多邻国”像玩游戏一样学习语法，用Anki的智能卡片背单词。可知，本段主要讲可以运用技术来帮助学习语言， A. Let technology help you out “让技术帮助你”符合语境，故选A。
20．根据空前“Make new friends. ”结交新朋友，可知该段主题是通过交友练习语言，E选项中的“Communicating”是关键，E. Communicating in the new language is key “用新语言交流是关键”符合语境，故选E。

of a good doll better than Jandrisevits. "Dolls have a power we don't completely
understand," she said. It's a conclusion she came to while working as a social
worker using dolls to help her young clients adapt to their changing medical situations.
Many of the kids saw themselves in those dolls. But for the kids missing a limb
or who had lost their hair, there were none they could relate to.
So, seven years ago, when
a friend revealed that her child was stuck in self-doubt and self-distrust, Jandrisevits,
now 49, knew what might help the youth through this potentially challenging period.
"It's hard to tell a kid, 'You are perfect the way you are, ' and to build
self-esteem (自尊) that way, but never offer
them anything that looks like them, "she says.
Jandrisevits went about
changing that. She crafted a doll by hand — using fabric, stitching, and
markers — that resembled (像) her friend's
child and sent it off. After the friend posted a photo online of the happy child
and doll, another woman asked Jandrisevits to make a doll that looked like her baby,
who was missing a leg.
Word spread, and soon Jandrisevits
was making dolls for children with scars, birthmarks, facial deformities(畸形), — in short, a doll that looked like them. She quit her job and started
a nonprofit, A Doll Like Me.
Working out of her home
in Milwaukee, from photos sent by parents or caregivers, it takes Jandrisevits roughly
three days to craft only one doll. A GoFundMe page helps her cover costs and allows
her to donate her services. She hasn't charged for a doll since she began her nonprofit.
In all, she's made more
than 400 dolls. The waiting list is long, but Jandriscvits will never give up. As
she explains on her GoFundMe page, "Every kid, regardless of gender, ethnicity,
age, medical issue, or body type, should look into the sweet face of a doll and
see their own."
8．What made Jandrisevits realize the value of dolls
A．The influence of dolls on her. B．Her working experience.
C．The changing medical situations. D．Her relation to the unlucky kids.
9．What does the underlined word ―that‖ refer to in paragraph 3
A．Children's concern about their looks.
B．The problems faced by the child of a friend.
C．The challenging period the youth are going through.
D．The fact that words alone fail to help build self-esteem.
10．What can be inferred about Jandrisevits' making dolls
A．It targets children with mental problems.
B．It is time-consuming but meaningful.
C．It is thought poorly of by people.
D．It brings in a good fortune.
11．Which of the following best describes Jandrisevits
A．Creative and caring. B．Ambitious and devoted.
C．Considerate and sensitive. D．Knowledgeable and generous.

Of the 7 billion people
on Earth, roughly 6 billion own a cellphone, which is pretty shocking, given that
only 4.5 billion have access to a working toilet.
So how are cellphones changing
us On average, people spend 4. 7 hours a day looking at their bined with
the length of time spent in front of computers, this has led to an increase in the
nearsightedness. In North America, in the 1970s about 1/4 of the population had
nearsightedness, where today nearly half do; and in some parts of Asia, 80 — 90%
of the population is now nearsighted.
And it can be hard to put
your phone down, take for example the game Candy Crush. As you play the game, you
achieve small goals causing your brain to be rewarded with little bursts of dopamine,
and eventually, you are rewarded with new contents of the game. This novelty also
gives little bursts of dopamine, and they together create what is known as a
"compulsion loop", which just happens to be the same loop responsible
for the behavior associated with nicotine or cocaine. According to a recent study,
93% of young people aged 18—29 report using their smartphones to avoid boredom.
Without their phones, they may suffer "nomophobia"—the fear or anxiety
of being without their phones.
Your smartphone can also
disrupt your sleep! The screen produces a blue light which has been shown to change
our biological clock, reducing the time spent in deep sleep, which is linked to
the development of diabetes, cancer, and obesity.
Of course, smartphones
also completely change our ability to access information, most notably in poor and
minority populations. 7% of Americans are entirely dependent on smartphones for
their access to the Internet.
So while phones are in
no way totally bad, and have been a part of positive change in the world, there's
no denying that they are changing us.
12．Why does the writer mention the near-sighted population in paragraph 2
A．To call on people to stop using cellphones.
B．To demonstrate the bad influence cellphones have on our eyes.
C．To show the eyesight differences between westerners and Asians.
D．To warn us that shortsightedness caused by computers is becoming worse.
13．How does a man with "nomophobia" probably feel if his phone isn't accessible
A．Anxious. B．Energetic. C．Addicted. D．Excited.
14．How do cellphones influence our sleep according to the writer
A．They provide too much exciting information that makes us sleepless.
B．They produce a special light that can cause less deep sleeping time.
C．They can lead to serious diseases related to sleeping problems.
D．They have clocks that ring too loud for us to fall asleep.
15．Which of the following can be the best title for the text
A．How Do Cellphones Change Us
B．Put Down Your Cellphone Now!
C．Can We Live Without Cellphones
D．Don't Let Cellphones Ruin Your Eyes!

Play house with the language. The more you invite a foreign language into your daily life, the more your brain will consider it something useful and worth caring about. "Use every opportunity to get involved in the new language," says Russian translator Olga Dmitrochenkova. 　18． 　, read kids' books written in it, watch subtitled TED and TEDx talks, or live-narrate parts of your day to an imaginary foreign friend.
　19． 　. Dmitrochenkova has a great idea: "A funny thing like resetting the language on your phone can help you learn new words right away," she says. Ditto for changing the language on your browser (浏览器). Or you can seek out more structured learning opportunities online. Dutch translator Els De Keyser recommends Duolinguo for its gamified (游戏化) approach to grammar, and Anki for memorizing vocabulary with its "intelligent" flashcards...
Make new friends. 　20． 　 — it will teach you to naturally express your thoughts, instead of mentally translating each sentence before you say it. Find native speakers near you.

【知识点】七选五
【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了掌握外语的几个基本原则。
【点评】考查七选五，本文是一篇教育类阅读，要求在理解细节信息的基础上，着重考查对上下文的理解和推理判断能力。
16．根据空前“They say that children learn languages the best.”他们说孩子们学习语言最好；以及空后“We asked some of the polyglots (通晓多种语言的人) in TED's Open Translation Project to share their secrets to mastering a foreign language. Several basic principles are as follows.”我们邀请了TED开放翻译项目中的一些多语者分享他们掌握外语的秘诀。几个基本原则如下。可知此处讲掌握外语的几个基本原则。 F. But that doesn't mean that adults should give up “但这并不意味着成年人应该放弃”承上启下，符合语境，故选F。
17．根据空前“Pick up 50 words of a language and start using them on people”先找50个外语单词，用它们来跟别人交流。可知，Judith Matz建议先选择所学语言的50个单词在真实场景中使用，然后慢慢学习语法，上下文先后关系， D. and then slowly start picking up grammar “然后慢慢开始学习语法”符合语境，故选D。
18．根据空后“read kids’ books written in it, watch subtitled TED and TEDx talks, or live-narrate parts of your day to an imaginary foreign friend.”读用那门语言写的童话，看有字幕的TED演讲，或者跟你想象中的外国朋友讲述一些一天里发生的事。可知，此空与后文两个分句构成平行关系，它们都是在家使用语言的日常场景， G. Stick every object in your house in this language “把家里的每一件物品都用这种语言粘起来”也呼应空前“Play house with the language.”和语言玩过家家，故选G。
19．根据空后“Dmitrochenkova has a great idea: ‘A funny thing like resetting the language on your phone can help you learn new words right away,’ she says. Ditto for changing the language on your browser (浏览器). Or you can seek out more structured learning opportunities online. Dutch translator Els De Keyser recommends Duolinguo for its gamified (游戏化) approach to grammar, and Anki for memorizing vocabulary with its ‘intelligent’ flashcards...”德米特罗琴科娃有一个很好的主意：“重新设置手机语言就能让你马上学到新单词，”她说。同样，你也可以在浏览器上更改语言。或者在网上找一些更系统的学习资源。荷兰语翻译家埃尔斯·德·凯瑟推荐用“多邻国”像玩游戏一样学习语法，用Anki的智能卡片背单词。可知，本段主要讲可以运用技术来帮助学习语言， A. Let technology help you out “让技术帮助你”符合语境，故选A。
20．根据空前“Make new friends. ”结交新朋友，可知该段主题是通过交友练习语言，E选项中的“Communicating”是关键，E. Communicating in the new language is key “用新语言交流是关键”符合语境，故选E。
