r.C．31 December.D．10 January.A lot of people ask this question: "
Why is body language so important?" Studies have shown that in th
e process of communication, non-verbal expression has 65% to 93%
more influence than actual text. This means that "how to say" is
more important than "what to say". Of course, this does not mean
that you don''t need to do preparation for your interviews, nor do
es it mean that you can take any short cuts. On the contrary, thi
s means that you have more things to pay attention to and prepare
for.In the real workplace, body language is much more important
than you think. Without proper body language, you may find yourse
lf trapped in a circle where you can''t integrate with the externa
l environment, not to mention the difficulties in the absence of
body language in the workplace."People can often make inferences
from actions, and the results of these inferences directly affect
lives: for example. who will be employed and who will be promote
d."Academician Amy Cuddy said in a TV talk show. She also said th
at "our body language will also affect our perception ( 感知, 看法)of
ourselves. When you try to make more authoritative actions,your
brain will inadvertently（不经意地）receive signals and actually create
an idea that you are more authoritative, so that you have more c
onfidence in yourself".Therefore, before interviews or important
meetings, try not to lean on any object or have a hunched back. I
nstead, you should try to keep your body relaxed. You can even st
and with a relatively authoritative posture (姿势） -of course, you
may need to do these things in the bathroom or places where no on
e could see you.Body language plays a crucial role in your job in
terviews, careers, and everyday life. Paying attention to body la
nguage could make strong impacts on your behavior,which could hel
p you achieve better results. So, every time you are nervous or f
eel that you can''t do it, stretch your body, smile, and tell your
self "Fake it till you become it!"4．What does Paragraph 1 mainly
tell us?A．What we say in a conversation is not so important.B．Pra
cticing body language is a short cut to success.C．We should attac
h great importance to body language.D．Body language carries 93% o
f conversation messages.5．According to Amy Cuddy, why is body lan
guage important for us?A．It decides whether we are promoted.B．It
influences people''s impression of us.C．It makes us look more auth
oritative.D．It helps people understand who we are.6．What does the
underlined word "hunched" possibly mean?A．Broken down.B．Tied beh
ind.C．Bent forward.D．Straightened up.7．Who might be the intended
readers of the passage?A．New arrivals in the workplace.B．Body lan
guage researchers.C．Working adults to be promoted.D．Viewers of a
TV talk show.The day had finally arrived. Skyler and Kenny waited
expectantly by the door. When they heard the familiar “thump, th
ump” of their father’s car as it turned off the street and into t
he driveway, the children ran outside, zipped (快速移动) past their f
ather and hurried into the back seat of the car.They were greeted
by a familiar furry face and a wagging tail. Both face and tail
belonged to Daisy, their three-year-old German shepherd. In the s
eat beside her lay her harness (背带). It was the symbol of Daisy a
nd the children’s hard work. If all had gone well this afternoon,
the harness would become Daisy’s work uniform, a sign to the wor
ld that she was a fully trained service dog.Every day for eightee
n long months, Skyler and Kenny had trained Daisy to work with th
e visually impaired: people with sight problems or blindness. Fir
st, they trained her to perform the tasks that every obedient dog
should know. Daisy learned to sit, to walk on a leash (皮带), and
to settle patiently and wait. Those simple tasks came easily to t
heir intelligent pup.But the more challenging tasks took time and
patience. Daisy learned to move carefully around objects like si
gnposts and trash cans. She needed to keep well clear of them in
order to guide her owner along a safe path. Daisy learned to stop
at the edge of a staircase, or any other spot that required a st
ep up or down. A professional service dog trainer helped with the
most challenging tasks. He taught Daisy to ignore orders that mi
ght put her owner in danger.Today, all of their hard work had com
e to a conclusion. Daisy had taken her service dog exam. But did
she pass? Skyler and Kenny followed their father into the front h
allway, with Daisy tagging close behind. They looked at their fat
her expectantly. Their father gave a smile and a nod. The childre
n ran off to tell their mother the news.8．What were the children
waiting for by the door?A．A gift in the back seat.B．A dog they ra
ised.C．A new car father bought.D．A familiar friend they missed.9．
Why did Daisy take an exam?A．To better guide her owner.B．To show
off her intelligence.C．To perform more challenging tasks.D．To get
official recognition to provide service.10．Which of the followin
g best describe Daisy’s 18-month training?A．Hard and dangerous.B．
Easy and purposeful.C．Professional but challenging.D．Amusing but
time-consuming.11．What was probably “the news”?A．Daisy would be t
rained again.B．Daisy would be free of harness.C．Daisy didn’t do w
ell in the exam.D．Daisy became a qualified service dog.Crosswalk
(人行横道) art is gaining popularity. It’s not only beautifying citie
s but also making it safer for passers-by. The Asphalt Art Initia
tive (沥青艺术倡议) by Bloomberg Philanthropies creates bright views at
crossroads, changing gray concrete into cheerful, bright and saf
e space.With its crosswalk art, crossroad paintings and painted s
quares, this initiative is also building community, calling upon
local artists to work with volunteers in the area. One such examp
le is the Gulfton Project in Houston, Texas. This city received B
loomberg Philanthropies’ support to improve dangerous crossroads.
The Houston public works department selected an art studio to cre
ate a bright design, and community volunteers were recently asked
to come out and paint the street. The design will be living, as
it will be designed again every two years in order to re-inspire
passers-by and drivers and stay culturally connected. Such an ini
tiative is imperative as more than 50% of injuries and deaths hap
pen near or at crossroads.Crossroad paintings are so bright that
it’s hard for a driver to miss them. Research for Bloomberg Phila
nthropies called The Asphalt Art Safety Study shows that they are
effective; crashes with cars and passers-by were reduced by half
and all crashes went down by 17%.“Using bright urban artwork can
really stand out and become some of cities’ biggest successes,”
said Janette Sadik-Khan, principal for transportation at Bloomber
g Associates. “And this is a simple, beautiful solution. Such use
of paint and other temporary (暂时的) treatments cost little, and t
hey can deliver real results.”Popularity is growing. From 2002 th
rough 2022, there were 42 Asphalt Art Initiative projects in the
US, as well as three pilot projects in Europe. In fact, 19 more E
uropean cities were just selected for restored passers-by space,
safety improvements, and crosswalk paintings, with restoration wo
rk starting in 2023. The idea is to do this across the world. Blo
omberg is making this dream a reality by offering a detailed guid
e in multiple languages.12．Which is one of the purposes of the As
phalt Art Initiative in Houston?A．To build a wonderful community.
B．To make the crossroads safe for everyone.C．To develop the popul
arity of street art.D．To change dull concrete into lively space.1
3．What does the underlined word “imperative” in paragraph 3 mean?
A．Profitable.B．Convenient.C．Necessary.D．Distant.14．What does Jane
tte Sadik-Khan say about the initiative?A．It makes a difference a
t a small cost.B．It adds some attractions for some cities.C．It st
ands out among all the city’s projects.D．It offers a scientific s
olution to transportation.15．What is the text mainly about?A．The
changes caused by crosswalk art.B．The popularity of crosswalk pai
ntings.C．Asphalt Art Initiative projects in the US.D．Asphalt Art
Initiative’s effort to crosswalk art.二、七选五How to Improve Speed Re
ading SkillsSpeed reading is one of many skills that can improve
your reading comprehension and shorten your study time. 16 Look
at groups of words, not single words. 17 However, if you can get
into the habit of reading groups or chunks of words at one time,
then you can read much faster. Start by trying to look at a group
of three or four words at once, then work up to looking at an en
tire line of works. Focus on words that give the sentence meaning
, such as the nouns and verbs and pay less attention to the fille
r words, such as a, the, and, etc.Scan for keywords.Scanning is a
highly effective way of extracting (提取) answers from a text with
out really reading it. If you know exactly what you are looking f
or — a name, a date, a statistic, or a specific word — you can fi
nd it quickly by skipping over large chunks of the text. To scan,
first visualize the word, number, or phrase you would like to fi
nd. 18 The information you are looking for should pop out at you
. 19You can train yourself to read faster by timing (计时) yourself
as you go. Start by getting your base time. Set a timer for fift
een minutes, and speed read as you normally do. 20 Do not count
the words, just the pages or paragraphs. Record your figures: for
instance, you night write “15 min/6.5 pages”.A．Time yourself.B．C
heck your comprehension.C．Here are some speed reading techniques.
D．Then, run your eyes rapidly over the text.E．When the timer goes
off, check to see how far you have got.F．If you read a text one
word at a time, then this will slow your reading speed down.G．One
of the reasons is that you have to pause to understand what a pa
ssage is saying.三、完形填空When we’re young, we don’t always know what
interests us. We often learn skills or 21 hobbies to please our
parents. As an adult, I wanted to develop one I 22, so I went t
o trade school.I entered a cabinetmaking (家具制造) 23. I didn’t thi

ly for smaller guests, the under cover rink is-suitable for all.
(无论是浪漫的日落溜冰，还是一天的家庭娱乐，特别是为较小的客人提供可爱的企鹅溜冰辅助工具，这座地下溜冰场适合所有人。)”可知，这座
地下溜冰场特别为小孩子提供了企鹅溜冰辅助工具；根据Meeting Santa“遇见圣诞老人”部分的第一段第二句“Little on
es will encounter some of Christmas best characters-Santa’s most
trusted elves (精灵) and his magical reindeer (驯鹿) friend. (小宝宝们将遇到
圣诞老人最信任的精灵和他的驯鹿朋友。)”可知，这个活动也是为小孩子精心设计的。故选B项。2．细节理解题。根据Experiencin
g shows“体验节目”部分的第一段四五句“But if you want to break with tradition, d
o visit Wales Millennium Centre this year. Here, one of the world
’s most popular musicals, “Les Misérables” will be brilliantly ad
apted and staged. (但如果你想打破传统，今年一定要去威尔士千禧中心。在这里，世界上最受欢迎的音乐剧之一《悲惨世界
》将被精彩地改编和上演。)”可知，在威尔士千禧中心上演的改编音乐剧打破了传统。故选C项。3．细节理解题。根据每一部分最后一句的时间
安排，如“Ticketed event: 15 November to 8 January (票务活动：11月15日至1月8日)”

C 5．B 6．C 7．A【分析】本文是说明文。主要介绍身体语言在职场中的重要性，并给予读者一些建议。4．主旨大
意题。由开头提问“Why is body language so important?(为什么肢体语言如此重要?)” 以及后续回答
“Studies have shown that in the process of communication, non-ver
bal expression has 65% to 93% more influence than actual text. Th
is means that "how to say" is more important than "what to say".
Of course, this does not mean that you don''t need to do preparati
on for your interviews, nor does it mean that you can take any sh
ort cuts. On the contrary, this means that you have more things t
o pay attention to and prepare for.( 研究表明，在交流过程中，非语言表达的影响比实际文本大65
%到93%。这意味着“怎么说”比“说什么”更重要。当然，这并不意味着你不需要为面试做准备，也不意味着你可以走任何捷径。相反，这意味
着你有更多的事情需要注意和准备。) ”等语句可知，本段主要阐述肢体语言的重要性，我们应该非常重视肢体语言。故选C。5．推理判断题。
根据第三段Amy Cuddy说的话“People can often make inferences from actions,
and the results of these inferences directly affect lives: for ex
ample, who will be employed and who will be promoted.(人们通常可以从行为中做
出推断，而这些推断的结果直接影响生活:例如，谁将被录用，谁将被提升。)”可知,Amy Cuddy认为人们通常从肢体语言判断一个人，
身体语言影响他人对我们的印象，并且这些判断结果直接影响生活，所以身体语言对我们来说很重要，因为它影响人们对我们的印象。故选B。6．
词义猜测题。根据下文“Instead, you should try to keep your body relaxed. You
can even stand with a relatively authoritative posture (姿势）(相反，你
应该试着保持你的身体放松。你甚至可以以一个相对权威的姿势站立)”instead表示转折，因此推断上文“Therefore, bef
ore interviews or important meetings, try not to lean on any obje
ct or have a hunched back.( 因此，在面试或重要会议之前，尽量不要依靠于任何物体或have a hunc
hed back。)” 说明站立时不要依靠任何物体或者have a hunched back，这里的“a hunched back
”指“一个好看的姿势”，因此推断划线词hunched，指“弓身，弓背”，故选C。7．推理判断题。根据第二段的不“In the re
al workplace, body language is much more important than you think
.( 在真实的工作场所，肢体语言比你想象的要重要得多。)”和最后一段的“Body language plays a crucial
role in your job interviews, careers, and everyday life.( 肢体语言在你
的工作面试、职业生涯和日常生活中起着至关重要的作用。)”可知，文章探讨的是身体语言在职场中的重要性，且部分语句直接以第二人称与读者
交流，给出一些建议，因此推断文章的意向读者是职场新人。故选A。8．B 9．D 10．C 11．D【导语】这是一篇
记叙文。文章主要讲述了18个月大的导盲犬黛西经过专业和挑战性的训练，通过了服务犬考试，成了一条合格的服务犬。8．细节理解题。根据第
二段中“They were greeted by a familiar furry face and a wagging tail
. Both face and tail belonged to Daisy, their three-year-old Germ
an shepherd. (迎接他们的是一张熟悉的毛茸茸的脸和一条摇摆的尾巴。脸和尾巴都属于他们三岁的德国牧羊犬黛西。)”可知，孩
子们正在门口等待他们的狗Daisy，故选B。9．推理判断题。根据第三段中“Every day for eighteen long
months, Skyler and Kenny had trained Daisy to work with the visua
lly impaired: people with sight problems or blindness. (在长达18个月的时
间里，斯凯勒和肯尼每天都训练黛西为视力有问题或失明的人服务。)”和最后一段中“Daisy had taken her servic
e dog exam. (黛西参加了服务犬考试。)”可推知，黛西参加服务犬考试的目的是获得官方认从而可以为盲人提供服务。故选D。1
0．推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中“But the more challenging tasks took time and pat
ience.(但更具挑战性的任务需要时间和耐心。)”和“A professional service dog trainer he
lped with the most challenging tasks. ( 一个专业的服务犬训练师帮助完成最具挑战性的任务。)
”可推知，黛西18个月的训练既专业，又具有挑战性，故选C。11．推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Daisy had taken her
service dog exam. But did she pass? Skyler and Kenny followed th
eir father into the front hallway, with Daisy tagging close behin
d. They looked at their father expectantly. Their father gave a s
mile and a nod. The children ran off to tell their mother the new
s.(黛西参加了服务犬考试。但她通过了吗？斯凯勒和肯尼跟着他们的父亲来到前面的走廊，黛西紧随其后。他们期待地看着他们的父亲。他们的
父亲微笑着点了点头。孩子们跑去告诉他们的妈妈这个消息。)”可推知，这个好消息是黛西考试通过，成了一条合格的服务犬。故选D。12．B
13．C 14．A 15．D【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了布隆伯格慈善基金会推出的沥青艺术倡议，该倡议不
仅能美化城市街道，而且可以改善人行横道的交通安全问题。12．细节理解题。根据第一段的“The Asphalt Art Initia
tive (沥青艺术倡议) by Bloomberg Philanthropies creates bright views at
crossroads, changing gray concrete into cheerful, bright and saf
e space.( Bloomberg Philanthropies慈善基金会的沥青艺术倡议在十字路口创造了明亮的景色，将灰色的混
凝土变成欢乐、明亮和安全的空间)”可知，该沥青艺术倡议在十字路口创建了明亮的颜色，结合第二段的“This city receive
d Bloomberg Philanthropies’ support to improve dangerous crossroa
ds.(该市得到了彭博慈善基金会的支持，以改善危险的十字路口)”可知，沥青艺术倡议(the Asphalt Art Initiat
ive)的目的是改善道路状况，从而保证行人的安全。故选B项。13．词句猜测题。根据下文的“as more than 50 perc
ent of injuries and deaths happen near or at crossroads(超过50%的伤亡发
生在十字路口附近或十字路口)”可知，人行横道经常发生交通事故，而这项沥青艺术倡议通过在十里路口创建明亮的安全颜色以及该倡议中改善危
险十字路口，由此可知该倡议能起到减少事故的效果，从而保证行人安全，因此这项倡议是非常必要的。故选C项。14．推理判断题。根据第五段
中的“And this is a simple, beautiful solution. Such use of paint an
d other temporary (暂时的) treatments cost little, and they can deli
ver real results.(这是一个简单而漂亮的解决方案。这种涂料和其他临时处理的使用成本很低，而且可以带来真正的效果)”
可推知，Janette Sadik-Khan认为这项倡议只需要很少的资金，却能阻止更大的损失。故选A项。15．主旨大意题。根据首段
中的“Crosswalk (人行横道) art is gaining popularity. It’s not only beau
tifying cities but also making it safer for passers-by. The Aspha
lt Art Initiative (沥青艺术倡议) by Bloomberg Philanthropies creates br
ight views at crossroads, changing gray concrete into cheerful, b

s or chunks of words at one time, then you can read much faster(如
果你能养成一次阅读一组或一大块单词的习惯，那么你的阅读速度就会快得多)”和转折词however可知，前后构成转折关系，所以此处是讲
