第一节 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。(共15小题;每小题2.5分，满分37.5分)
A
Canyoning
The sports of canyoning (蹦谷) explore the high-energy environment where water meets rock on the coast. Protected by wetsuits and helmets, people jump from cliffs and waterfalls and discover caves that would not normally be arrived at.
It was first done in the U.K. by TYF Adventure (01437 721611, www.tyf.com) and several thousand people jump from the cliffs near St David’s each year. A half day canyoning trip costs ￡50 (￡30 for children under 16).
Diving
Diving is not popular with British people. The difficulties of wild waters are greater because the water is colder and not clear enough, but the coasts of Cornwall, Wales and Scotland have some of the best diving in the world.
The British Sub Aqua Club (0870 112 9133, www.bsac.com) and the Professional Association of Diving Instructors (01580 819688, www.padi.com) run courses teaching the important skills.
Surfing
The best surfing places in the UK are on the southwest coast where it is warmer, especially in Cornwall. The best time of year to surf in the UK is late summer and autumn.
The British Surfing Association (01479 861256, www.britsurf.co.uk) has a list of famous surf schools around the country.
Rock climbing
The most popular natural rocks in Britain include the Peak District, the Lake District, while large areas of Scotland are a climber’s ideal place. Climbing courses and climbing walls can be found on the website of the British Mountaineering Council (0870 010 4878, www.thebmc.co.uk).

Today, we are talking about money. I can share a bit about my history with money and my new view when it comes to using green paper.
I made a web page with links to posts about our financial (财政的) journey where you can look for more details of where we've been and how we got where we are now. It was a big part of my story in the past and was a huge part of our downsizing（精简） journey. We got out of debt and stayed out of debt.
So I feel eager（渴望的）to share the benefits of being on this side. It takes more planning and more careful thought whenever a dollar is spent now than it did when I had a wallet full of credit cards. I now like to think all of my dollars doing the job. So many of us work for money and don't consider that money should work for us, too. Make your dollars do the job of helping you live the life you want.
Each time money is spent or saved, it should be going toward something that you purposefully want for your life. Last week I was out and I spent $ 20 on food in 3 days. It made me angry because afterward I thought about eating is not at all what I want for my life.
On the other hand, there are times I spend $ 20 while out with my family and it doesn't bother（使烦恼）me one bit. An afternoon out with my kids during which we stop for ice cream, and do something fun together has a completely different feel.
In the end, I want the dollars I spend to have purpose like I can enjoy life while still planning and saving for the future.
4. The underlined words “green paper” in Paragraph 1 refer to“________”.
A. money B. work C. newspaper D. book
5. You can learn about the writer's history with money________.
A. by reading posts about their financial journey
B. by going on a financial journey
C. by making a web page
D. by writing to him
6. In the writer's opinion,________.
A. more credit cards should be used in our daily life
B. we should work hard to make more money
C. money should help us live better
D. saving money is very easy
7. Why does the writer feel happy with the money spent with his family?
A. Because the money is spent on food.
B. Because the money is spent in doing something fun.
C. Because eating is what he wants for his life.
D. Because the money goes toward something that he wants for his life.
C
Scientists report that people in Sydney, Australia are in a war with cockatoos (凤头鹦鹉). The birds have learned to open the lids on trash bins (垃圾桶盖), and people are figuring out new ways to keep the lids closed. But the clever birds are quickly discovering new tricks.
Cockatoos are large, white birds in the parrot family. They’re common in western Australia, where they normally live in wooded areas. But as forests have been cut down, cockatoos have gotten used to living near people.
Last year, scientists at the Max Planck Institute reported that cockatoos had learned how to open the lids on trash bins. Cockatoos open the lids to find food scraps (剩下的食物). But they can also make a big mess, which upsets the people who own the trash bins.
What really interested the scientists was that the birds were teaching other cockatoos how to do the same thing. When scientists first began studying the cockatoos in 2018, only three areas near Sydney had lid-opening cockatoos. A year and a half later, cockatoos in 44 different areas knew the trick.
The researchers asked over 1,100 people from around Sydney about their trash bins. More than 15% of the people were taking steps. The goal was to make it hard for the cockatoos to open the bins. The most common way of protecting the bins was putting a brick or other heavy object on the lid.
The scientists discovered that the humans were teaching each other tricks, too. In most neighbourhoods, many people used the same cockatoo-stopping methods as their neighbours.
The researchers say it’s like a race between humans and cockatoos to learn new ways of doing things. Now many cockatoos have learned how to push heavy things off the bins. As a result, humans have figured out ways to attach the items to the top of their bins. The researchers describe the situation as a “human-wildlife conflict (冲突)”. They expect these conflicts to become more common as humans take over more areas that used to be wild.
8. Why do cockatoos choose to live near people?
A. To avoid being killed. B. To look for some food.
C. They like playing with trash bins. D. Their homes have been destroyed.
9. How do the owners of trash bins feel about the cockatoos’ behaviour?
A Worried. B. Surprised.
C. Annoyed. D. Interested.
10. What do the researchers think of the situation between cockatoos and people?
A. It’s a boring game. B. It’s an interesting contest.
C. It’s a necessary competition. D. It’s an effective communication.
11. What can we infer about the cockatoos?
A. They are stupid indeed. B. They like making trouble.
C. They like communicating with people. D. They keep learning and making progress.
D
A recent study suggests that when it comes to the benefits of reading, just doing it matters more than the content. Researchers have found that reading novels helps the brain development in understanding others and imagining the world. They also have found that people who spend a few hours per week reading books live longer than those who don’t read.
But how to build a habit of reading? Like any habit, the trick is in figuring out what suits you. The hardest part about reading is actually picking up a book. You have to sit down, pick up a book and start reading. “I always have a book next to wherever I put my phone,” My friend Jimmy once told me. “So if I want to check my phone, I physically can see the book there. Nine times out of ten. I end up reading the book instead of using my phone for nothing.”
Another challenge is time, and in that case, audiobooks(有声书) can be a good choice. Audiobooks are great for filling the mind while you’re on the way to work, washing dishes or working out at the gym.
If you’re still stuck on the way to developing a reading habit, the best way is to revisit your old favorite books to get your youthful reading pleasure. You should free yourself from the opinion that only important or educational books are worth reading. There’s no shame in rereading the books that made you fall in love with reading in the first place. Restarting the practice of reading is a little like picking up painting. It takes some work to get into the best state, but once you begin, the results are beautiful and satisfying.
12. What is the most difficult part in forming the reading habit?
A. Getting reading skills. B. Finding a great book.
C. Having limited time. D. Getting reading started.
13. What is the advantage of audiobooks according to the text?
A. They are time saving. B. They provide more pleasure.
C. They aid brain development. D. They offer more book choices.
14. Why is rereading old favourite books a good idea?
A. It helps restart reading. B. It is of great convenience
C. It improves the taste for art. D. It can increase your patience.
15. What can be the best title for the text?
A. Method of killing free time B. Advantages of using audiobooks
C. Way to choose educational books D. Tips on developing a reading habit

A
Canyoning
The sports of canyoning (蹦谷) explore the high-energy environment where water meets rock on the coast. Protected by wetsuits and helmets, people jump from cliffs and waterfalls and discover caves that would not normally be arrived at.
It was first done in the U.K. by TYF Adventure (01437 721611, www.tyf.com) and several thousand people jump from the cliffs near St David’s each year. A half day canyoning trip costs ￡50 (￡30 for children under 16).
Diving
Diving is not popular with British people. The difficulties of wild waters are greater because the water is colder and not clear enough, but the coasts of Cornwall, Wales and Scotland have some of the best diving in the world.
The British Sub Aqua Club (0870 112 9133, www.bsac.com) and the Professional Association of Diving Instructors (01580 819688, www.padi.com) run courses teaching the important skills.
Surfing
The best surfing places in the UK are on the southwest coast where it is warmer, especially in Cornwall. The best time of year to surf in the UK is late summer and autumn.
The British Surfing Association (01479 861256, www.britsurf.co.uk) has a list of famous surf schools around the country.
Rock climbing
The most popular natural rocks in Britain include the Peak District, the Lake District, while large areas of Scotland are a climber’s ideal place. Climbing courses and climbing walls can be found on the website of the British Mountaineering Council (0870 010 4878, www.thebmc.co.uk).

【答案】1. C 2. B 3. B
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇应用文。文章介绍了四种运动项目，以及相应的组织机构的相关信息。
【1题详解】
细节理解题。由Canyoning第二段中的“A half day canyoning trip costs ￡50 (￡30 for children under 16). (半天的峡谷之旅费用￡50 (16岁以下儿童30￡）)”可知，半天旅行一个成人是50英镑，16岁以下的孩子30英镑，所以两个成人加一个15岁的孩子一天所需要的费用是（50+50+30）*2=260。故选C项。
【2题详解】
细节理解题。由Diving第一段中的“Diving is not popular with British people. (潜水不受英国人欢迎)”可知，潜水不受英国人的欢迎。故选B项。
【3题详解】
推理判断题。由文章小标题“Canyoning (蹦谷)”、“Diving (潜水)”、“Surfing (冲浪)”、“Rock climbing (攀岩)”及内容可知，文章详细介绍了英国四种运动项目以及相应的组织机构的相关信息，由此可以判断文章的写作对象是对英国极限运动项目感兴趣的人群。故选B项。
B
Today, we are talking about money. I can share a bit about my history with money and my new view when it comes to using green paper.
I made a web page with links to posts about our financial (财政的) journey where you can look for more details of where we've been and how we got where we are now. It was a big part of my story in the past and was a huge part of our downsizing（精简） journey. We got out of debt and stayed out of debt.
So I feel eager（渴望的）to share the benefits of being on this side. It takes more planning and more careful thought whenever a dollar is spent now than it did when I had a wallet full of credit cards. I now like to think all of my dollars doing the job. So many of us work for money and don't consider that money should work for us, too.

On the other hand, there are times I spend $ 20 while out with my family and it doesn't bother（使烦恼）me one bit. An afternoon out with my kids during which we stop for ice cream, and do something fun together has a completely different feel.
In the end, I want the dollars I spend to have purpose like I can enjoy life while still planning and saving for the future.

Scientists report that people in Sydney, Australia are in a war with cockatoos (凤头鹦鹉). The birds have learned to open the lids on trash bins (垃圾桶盖), and people are figuring out new ways to keep the lids closed. But the clever birds are quickly discovering new tricks.
Cockatoos are large, white birds in the parrot family. They’re common in western Australia, where they normally live in wooded areas. But as forests have been cut down, cockatoos have gotten used to living near people.
Last year, scientists at the Max Planck Institute reported that cockatoos had learned how to open the lids on trash bins. Cockatoos open the lids to find food scraps (剩下的食物). But they can also make a big mess, which upsets the people who own the trash bins.
What really interested the scientists was that the birds were teaching other cockatoos how to do the same thing. When scientists first began studying the cockatoos in 2018, only three areas near Sydney had lid-opening cockatoos. A year and a half later, cockatoos in 44 different areas knew the trick.
The researchers asked over 1,100 people from around Sydney about their trash bins. More than 15% of the people were taking steps. The goal was to make it hard for the cockatoos to open the bins. The most common way of protecting the bins was putting a brick or other heavy object on the lid.
The scientists discovered that the humans were teaching each other tricks, too. In most neighbourhoods, many people used the same cockatoo-stopping methods as their neighbours.
The researchers say it’s like a race between humans and cockatoos to learn new ways of doing things. Now many cockatoos have learned how to push heavy things off the bins. As a result, humans have figured out ways to attach the items to the top of their bins. The researchers describe the situation as a “human-wildlife conflict (冲突)”. They expect these conflicts to become more common as humans take over more areas that used to be wild.
8. Why do cockatoos choose to live near people?
A. To avoid being killed. B. To look for some food.
C. They like playing with trash bins. D. Their homes have been destroyed.
9. How do the owners of trash bins feel about the cockatoos’ behaviour?
A. Worried. B. Surprised.
C. Annoyed. D. Interested.
10. What do the researchers think of the situation between cockatoos and people?
A. It’s a boring game. B. It’s an interesting contest.
C. It’s a necessary competition. D. It’s an effective communication.
11. What can we infer about the cockatoos?
A. They are stupid indeed. B. They like making trouble.
C. They like communicating with people. D. They keep learning and making progress.
【答案】8. D 9. C 10. B 11. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要讲的是澳大利亚某地区的人们正在跟凤头鹦鹉进行着一场特殊的比拼和较量——前者处心积虑地去盖好垃圾桶盖子，而后者却想方设法去打开它们。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“But as forests have been cut down, cockatoos have gotten used to living near people.(但随着森林被砍伐，凤头鹦鹉已经习惯了在人类附近生活。)”可知，由于它们的家园被摧毁，所以这些凤头鹦鹉来到了距离人类近的地方。故选D。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“But they can also make a big mess, which upsets the people who own the trash bins.(但它们也会弄得一团糟，这让垃圾箱的主人很不高兴。)”可知，垃圾箱的主人对凤头鹦鹉的行为感到生气，故选C。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段“What really interested the scientists was that the birds were teaching other cockatoos how to do the same thing”（科学家们真正感兴趣的是，这些鸟正在教其他凤头鹦鹉如何做同样的事情）最后一段“The researchers say it’s like a race between humans and cockatoos to learn new ways of doing things.(研究人员表示，这就像人类和凤头鹦鹉之间在学习新的做事方式方面的竞赛。)”可知，研究人员认为，人们跟凤头鹦鹉之间正在展开一场较量，在这场较量中双方都在学习解决问题的新办法。故这是一场有趣的较量。故选B。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段的“Scientists report that people in Sydney, Australia are in a war with cockatoos (凤头鹦鹉). The birds have learned to open the lids on trash bins (垃圾桶盖), and people are figuring out new ways to keep the lids closed. But the clever birds are quickly discovering new tricks.(科学家报告说，澳大利亚悉尼的人们正与凤头鹦鹉展开一场战争。鸟儿已经学会了打开垃圾桶的盖子，而人们也在寻找新的方法来保持盖子的关闭。但聪明的鸟儿很快就发现了新窍门。)”可知，凤头鹦鹉不断学习，不断进步。故选D。

A recent study suggests that when it comes to the benefits of reading, just doing it matters more than the content. Researchers have found that reading novels helps the brain development in understanding others and imagining the world. They also have found that people who spend a few hours per week reading books live longer than those who don’t read.
But how to build a habit of reading? Like any habit, the trick is in figuring out what suits you. The hardest part about reading is actually picking up a book. You have to sit down, pick up a book and start reading. “I always have a book next to wherever I put my phone,” My friend Jimmy once told me. “So if I want to check my phone, I physically can see the book there. Nine times out of ten. I end up reading the book instead of using my phone for nothing.”
Another challenge is time and in that case, audiobooks(有声书) can be a good choice. Audiobooks are great for filling the mind while you’re on the way to work, washing dishes or working out at the gym.
If you’re still stuck on the way to developing a reading habit, the best way is to revisit your old favorite books to get your youthful reading pleasure. You should free yourself from the opinion that only important or educational books are worth reading. There’s no shame in rereading the books that made you fall in love with reading in the first place. Restarting the practice of reading is a little like picking up painting. It takes some work to get into the best state, but once you begin, the results are beautiful and satisfying.
12. What is the most difficult part in forming the reading habit?
A. Getting reading skills. B. Finding a great book.
C. Having limited time. D. Getting reading started.
13. What is the advantage of audiobooks according to the text?
A. They are time saving. B. They provide more pleasure.
C. They aid brain development. D. They offer more book choices.
14. Why is rereading old favourite books a good idea?
A. It helps restart reading. B. It is of great convenience
C. It improves the taste for art. D. It can increase your patience.
15. What can be the best title for the text?
A. Method of killing free time B. Advantages of using audiobooks
C. Way to choose educational books D. Tips on developing a reading habit
【答案】12. D 13. A 14. A 15. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了培养阅读习惯的建议。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第二段“The hardest part about reading is actually picking up a book. You have to sit down, pick up a book and start reading(阅读最难的部分是拿起一本书。你必须坐下来，拿起一本书开始阅读)”可知，阅读最难的一部分是拿起一本书开始阅读。故选D。
【13题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第三段“Audiobooks are great for filling the mind while you’re on the way to work, washing dishes or working out at the gym.(有声读物非常适合在你上班、洗碗或在健身房锻炼的路上填满你的大脑)”可推知，有声读物可以节约时间。故选A。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章最后一段“If you’re still stuck on the way to developing a reading habit, the best way is to revisit your old favorite books to get your youthful reading pleasure.(如果你还在培养阅读习惯的路上，最好的方法就是重温你以前最喜欢的书，以获得年轻时的阅读乐趣)”和“Restarting the practice of reading is a little like picking up painting. It takes some work to get into the best state, but once you begin, the results are beautiful and satisfying.( 重新开始阅读有点像开始画画。需要一些努力才能进入最佳状态，但一旦你开始，结果会是美丽而令人满意的)”可知，重读旧书可以帮助你重新开始阅读。故选A。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。根据文章第二段第一句“But how to build a habit of reading?(但是如何养成阅读的习惯呢？)”可知，本文主要介绍了培养阅读习惯的三个方法。故选D。

A
Canyoning
The sports of canyoning (蹦谷) explore the high-energy environment where water meets rock on the coast. Protected by wetsuits and helmets, people jump from cliffs and waterfalls and discover caves that would not normally be arrived at.
It was first done in the U.K. by TYF Adventure (01437 721611, www.tyf.com) and several thousand people jump from the cliffs near St David’s each year. A half day canyoning trip costs ￡50 (￡30 for children under 16).
Diving
Diving is not popular with British people. The difficulties of wild waters are greater because the water is colder and not clear enough, but the coasts of Cornwall, Wales and Scotland have some of the best diving in the world.
The British Sub Aqua Club (0870 112 9133, www.bsac.com) and the Professional Association of Diving Instructors (01580 819688, www.padi.com) run courses teaching the important skills.
Surfing
The best surfing places in the UK are on the southwest coast where it is warmer, especially in Cornwall. The best time of year to surf in the UK is late summer and autumn.
The British Surfing Association (01479 861256, www.britsurf.co.uk) has a list of famous surf schools around the country.
Rock climbing
The most popular natural rocks in Britain include the Peak District, the Lake District, while large areas of Scotland are a climber’s ideal place. Climbing courses and climbing walls can be found on the website of the British Mountaineering Council (0870 010 4878, www.thebmc.co.uk).

Today, we are talking about money. I can share a bit about my history with money and my new view when it comes to using green paper.
I made a web page with links to posts about our financial (财政的) journey where you can look for more details of where we've been and how we got where we are now. It was a big part of my story in the past and was a huge part of our downsizing（精简） journey. We got out of debt and stayed out of debt.
So I feel eager（渴望的）to share the benefits of being on this side. It takes more planning and more careful thought whenever a dollar is spent now than it did when I had a wallet full of credit cards. I now like to think all of my dollars doing the job. So many of us work for money and don't consider that money should work for us, too. Make your dollars do the job of helping you live the life you want.
Each time money is spent or saved, it should be going toward something that you purposefully want for your life. Last week I was out and I spent $ 20 on food in 3 days. It made me angry because afterward I thought about eating is not at all what I want for my life.
On the other hand, there are times I spend $ 20 while out with my family and it doesn't bother（使烦恼）me one bit. An afternoon out with my kids during which we stop for ice cream, and do something fun together has a completely different feel.
In the end, I want the dollars I spend to have purpose like I can enjoy life while still planning and saving for the future.
4. The underlined words “green paper” in Paragraph 1 refer to“________”.
A. money B. work C. newspaper D. book
5. You can learn about the writer's history with money________.
A. by reading posts about their financial journey
B. by going on a financial journey
C. by making a web page
D. by writing to him
6. In the writer's opinion,________.
A. more credit cards should be used in our daily life
B. we should work hard to make more money
C. money should help us live better
D. saving money is very easy
7. Why does the writer feel happy with the money spent with his family?
A. Because the money is spent on food.
B. Because the money is spent in doing something fun.
C. Because eating is what he wants for his life.
D. Because the money goes toward something that he wants for his life.
C
Scientists report that people in Sydney, Australia are in a war with cockatoos (凤头鹦鹉). The birds have learned to open the lids on trash bins (垃圾桶盖), and people are figuring out new ways to keep the lids closed. But the clever birds are quickly discovering new tricks.
Cockatoos are large, white birds in the parrot family. They’re common in western Australia, where they normally live in wooded areas. But as forests have been cut down, cockatoos have gotten used to living near people.
Last year, scientists at the Max Planck Institute reported that cockatoos had learned how to open the lids on trash bins. Cockatoos open the lids to find food scraps (剩下的食物). But they can also make a big mess, which upsets the people who own the trash bins.
What really interested the scientists was that the birds were teaching other cockatoos how to do the same thing. When scientists first began studying the cockatoos in 2018, only three areas near Sydney had lid-opening cockatoos. A year and a half later, cockatoos in 44 different areas knew the trick.
The researchers asked over 1,100 people from around Sydney about their trash bins. More than 15% of the people were taking steps. The goal was to make it hard for the cockatoos to open the bins. The most common way of protecting the bins was putting a brick or other heavy object on the lid.
The scientists discovered that the humans were teaching each other tricks, too. In most neighbourhoods, many people used the same cockatoo-stopping methods as their neighbours.
The researchers say it’s like a race between humans and cockatoos to learn new ways of doing things. Now many cockatoos have learned how to push heavy things off the bins. As a result, humans have figured out ways to attach the items to the top of their bins. The researchers describe the situation as a “human-wildlife conflict (冲突)”. They expect these conflicts to become more common as humans take over more areas that used to be wild.
8. Why do cockatoos choose to live near people?
A. To avoid being killed. B. To look for some food.
C. They like playing with trash bins. D. Their homes have been destroyed.
9. How do the owners of trash bins feel about the cockatoos’ behaviour?
A Worried. B. Surprised.
C. Annoyed. D. Interested.
10. What do the researchers think of the situation between cockatoos and people?
A. It’s a boring game. B. It’s an interesting contest.
C. It’s a necessary competition. D. It’s an effective communication.
11. What can we infer about the cockatoos?
A. They are stupid indeed. B. They like making trouble.
C. They like communicating with people. D. They keep learning and making progress.
D
A recent study suggests that when it comes to the benefits of reading, just doing it matters more than the content. Researchers have found that reading novels helps the brain development in understanding others and imagining the world. They also have found that people who spend a few hours per week reading books live longer than those who don’t read.
But how to build a habit of reading? Like any habit, the trick is in figuring out what suits you. The hardest part about reading is actually picking up a book. You have to sit down, pick up a book and start reading. “I always have a book next to wherever I put my phone,” My friend Jimmy once told me. “So if I want to check my phone, I physically can see the book there. Nine times out of ten. I end up reading the book instead of using my phone for nothing.”
Another challenge is time, and in that case, audiobooks(有声书) can be a good choice. Audiobooks are great for filling the mind while you’re on the way to work, washing dishes or working out at the gym.
If you’re still stuck on the way to developing a reading habit, the best way is to revisit your old favorite books to get your youthful reading pleasure. You should free yourself from the opinion that only important or educational books are worth reading. There’s no shame in rereading the books that made you fall in love with reading in the first place. Restarting the practice of reading is a little like picking up painting. It takes some work to get into the best state, but once you begin, the results are beautiful and satisfying.
12. What is the most difficult part in forming the reading habit?
A. Getting reading skills. B. Finding a great book.
C. Having limited time. D. Getting reading started.
13. What is the advantage of audiobooks according to the text?
A. They are time saving. B. They provide more pleasure.
C. They aid brain development. D. They offer more book choices.
14. Why is rereading old favourite books a good idea?
A. It helps restart reading. B. It is of great convenience
C. It improves the taste for art. D. It can increase your patience.
15. What can be the best title for the text?
A. Method of killing free time B. Advantages of using audiobooks
C. Way to choose educational books D. Tips on developing a reading habit

A
Canyoning
The sports of canyoning (蹦谷) explore the high-energy environment where water meets rock on the coast. Protected by wetsuits and helmets, people jump from cliffs and waterfalls and discover caves that would not normally be arrived at.
It was first done in the U.K. by TYF Adventure (01437 721611, www.tyf.com) and several thousand people jump from the cliffs near St David’s each year. A half day canyoning trip costs ￡50 (￡30 for children under 16).
Diving
Diving is not popular with British people. The difficulties of wild waters are greater because the water is colder and not clear enough, but the coasts of Cornwall, Wales and Scotland have some of the best diving in the world.
The British Sub Aqua Club (0870 112 9133, www.bsac.com) and the Professional Association of Diving Instructors (01580 819688, www.padi.com) run courses teaching the important skills.
Surfing
The best surfing places in the UK are on the southwest coast where it is warmer, especially in Cornwall. The best time of year to surf in the UK is late summer and autumn.
The British Surfing Association (01479 861256, www.britsurf.co.uk) has a list of famous surf schools around the country.
Rock climbing
The most popular natural rocks in Britain include the Peak District, the Lake District, while large areas of Scotland are a climber’s ideal place. Climbing courses and climbing walls can be found on the website of the British Mountaineering Council (0870 010 4878, www.thebmc.co.uk).

Today, we are talking about money. I can share a bit about my history with money and my new view when it comes to using green paper.
I made a web page with links to posts about our financial (财政的) journey where you can look for more details of where we've been and how we got where we are now. It was a big part of my story in the past and was a huge part of our downsizing（精简） journey. We got out of debt and stayed out of debt.
So I feel eager（渴望的）to share the benefits of being on this side. It takes more planning and more careful thought whenever a dollar is spent now than it did when I had a wallet full of credit cards. I now like to think all of my dollars doing the job. So many of us work for money and don't consider that money should work for us, too. Make your dollars do the job of helping you live the life you want.
Each time money is spent or saved, it should be going toward something that you purposefully want for your life. Last week I was out and I spent $ 20 on food in 3 days. It made me angry because afterward I thought about eating is not at all what I want for my life.
On the other hand, there are times I spend $ 20 while out with my family and it doesn't bother（使烦恼）me one bit. An afternoon out with my kids during which we stop for ice cream, and do something fun together has a completely different feel.
In the end, I want the dollars I spend to have purpose like I can enjoy life while still planning and saving for the future.

6. In the writer's opinion,________.
A. more credit cards should be used in our daily life
B. we should work hard to make more money
C. money should help us live better
D. saving money is very easy
7. Why does the writer feel happy with the money spent with his family?
A. Because the money is spent on food.

Scientists report that people in Sydney, Australia are in a war with cockatoos (凤头鹦鹉). The birds have learned to open the lids on trash bins (垃圾桶盖), and people are figuring out new ways to keep the lids closed. But the clever birds are quickly discovering new tricks.
Cockatoos are large, white birds in the parrot family. They’re common in western Australia, where they normally live in wooded areas. But as forests have been cut down, cockatoos have gotten used to living near people.
Last year, scientists at the Max Planck Institute reported that cockatoos had learned how to open the lids on trash bins. Cockatoos open the lids to find food scraps (剩下的食物). But they can also make a big mess, which upsets the people who own the trash bins.
What really interested the scientists was that the birds were teaching other cockatoos how to do the same thing. When scientists first began studying the cockatoos in 2018, only three areas near Sydney had lid-opening cockatoos. A year and a half later, cockatoos in 44 different areas knew the trick.
The researchers asked over 1,100 people from around Sydney about their trash bins. More than 15% of the people were taking steps. The goal was to make it hard for the cockatoos to open the bins. The most common way of protecting the bins was putting a brick or other heavy object on the lid.
The scientists discovered that the humans were teaching each other tricks, too. In most neighbourhoods, many people used the same cockatoo-stopping methods as their neighbours.
The researchers say it’s like a race between humans and cockatoos to learn new ways of doing things. Now many cockatoos have learned how to push heavy things off the bins. As a result, humans have figured out ways to attach the items to the top of their bins. The researchers describe the situation as a “human-wildlife conflict (冲突)”. They expect these conflicts to become more common as humans take over more areas that used to be wild.
8. Why do cockatoos choose to live near people?
A. To avoid being killed. B. To look for some food.
C. They like playing with trash bins. D. Their homes have been destroyed.
9. How do the owners of trash bins feel about the cockatoos’ behaviour?
A. Worried. B. Surprised.
C. Annoyed. D. Interested.
10. What do the researchers think of the situation between cockatoos and people?
A. It’s a boring game. B. It’s an interesting contest.
C. It’s a necessary competition. D. It’s an effective communication.
11. What can we infer about the cockatoos?
A. They are stupid indeed. B. They like making trouble.
C. They like communicating with people. D. They keep learning and making progress.
【答案】8. D 9. C 10. B 11. D
【解析】

【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“But as forests have been cut down, cockatoos have gotten used to living near people.(但随着森林被砍伐，凤头鹦鹉已经习惯了在人类附近生活。)”可知，由于它们的家园被摧毁，所以这些凤头鹦鹉来到了距离人类近的地方。故选D。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“But they can also make a big mess, which upsets the people who own the trash bins.(但它们也会弄得一团糟，这让垃圾箱的主人很不高兴。)”可知，垃圾箱的主人对凤头鹦鹉的行为感到生气，故选C。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段“What really interested the scientists was that the birds were teaching other cockatoos how to do the same thing”（科学家们真正感兴趣的是，这些鸟正在教其他凤头鹦鹉如何做同样的事情）最后一段“The researchers say it’s like a race between humans and cockatoos to learn new ways of doing things.(研究人员表示，这就像人类和凤头鹦鹉之间在学习新的做事方式方面的竞赛。)”可知，研究人员认为，人们跟凤头鹦鹉之间正在展开一场较量，在这场较量中双方都在学习解决问题的新办法。故这是一场有趣的较量。故选B。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段的“Scientists report that people in Sydney, Australia are in a war with cockatoos (凤头鹦鹉). The birds have learned to open the lids on trash bins (垃圾桶盖), and people are figuring out new ways to keep the lids closed. But the clever birds are quickly discovering new tricks.(科学家报告说，澳大利亚悉尼的人们正与凤头鹦鹉展开一场战争。鸟儿已经学会了打开垃圾桶的盖子，而人们也在寻找新的方法来保持盖子的关闭。但聪明的鸟儿很快就发现了新窍门。)”可知，凤头鹦鹉不断学习，不断进步。故选D。

A recent study suggests that when it comes to the benefits of reading, just doing it matters more than the content. Researchers have found that reading novels helps the brain development in understanding others and imagining the world. They also have found that people who spend a few hours per week reading books live longer than those who don’t read.
But how to build a habit of reading? Like any habit, the trick is in figuring out what suits you. The hardest part about reading is actually picking up a book. You have to sit down, pick up a book and start reading. “I always have a book next to wherever I put my phone,” My friend Jimmy once told me. “So if I want to check my phone, I physically can see the book there. Nine times out of ten. I end up reading the book instead of using my phone for nothing.”
Another challenge is time and in that case, audiobooks(有声书) can be a good choice. Audiobooks are great for filling the mind while you’re on the way to work, washing dishes or working out at the gym.
If you’re still stuck on the way to developing a reading habit, the best way is to revisit your old favorite books to get your youthful reading pleasure. You should free yourself from the opinion that only important or educational books are worth reading. There’s no shame in rereading the books that made you fall in love with reading in the first place. Restarting the practice of reading is a little like picking up painting. It takes some work to get into the best state, but once you begin, the results are beautiful and satisfying.
12. What is the most difficult part in forming the reading habit?
A. Getting reading skills. B. Finding a great book.
C. Having limited time. D. Getting reading started.
13. What is the advantage of audiobooks according to the text?
A. They are time saving. B. They provide more pleasure.
C. They aid brain development. D. They offer more book choices.
14. Why is rereading old favourite books a good idea?
A. It helps restart reading. B. It is of great convenience
C. It improves the taste for art. D. It can increase your patience.
15. What can be the best title for the text?
A. Method of killing free time B. Advantages of using audiobooks
C. Way to choose educational books D. Tips on developing a reading habit
【答案】12. D 13. A 14. A 15. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了培养阅读习惯的建议。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第二段“The hardest part about reading is actually picking up a book. You have to sit down, pick up a book and start reading(阅读最难的部分是拿起一本书。你必须坐下来，拿起一本书开始阅读)”可知，阅读最难的一部分是拿起一本书开始阅读。故选D。
【13题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第三段“Audiobooks are great for filling the mind while you’re on the way to work, washing dishes or working out at the gym.(有声读物非常适合在你上班、洗碗或在健身房锻炼的路上填满你的大脑)”可推知，有声读物可以节约时间。故选A。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章最后一段“If you’re still stuck on the way to developing a reading habit, the best way is to revisit your old favorite books to get your youthful reading pleasure.(如果你还在培养阅读习惯的路上，最好的方法就是重温你以前最喜欢的书，以获得年轻时的阅读乐趣)”和“Restarting the practice of reading is a little like picking up painting. It takes some work to get into the best state, but once you begin, the results are beautiful and satisfying.( 重新开始阅读有点像开始画画。需要一些努力才能进入最佳状态，但一旦你开始，结果会是美丽而令人满意的)”可知，重读旧书可以帮助你重新开始阅读。故选A。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。根据文章第二段第一句“But how to build a habit of reading?(但是如何养成阅读的习惯呢？)”可知，本文主要介绍了培养阅读习惯的三个方法。故选D。

【36题详解】
考查定语从句关系词。句意：一位来自江苏省的记者和他的父亲去澳大利亚和其他一些国家进行了3个月的旅行，结果证明这是一个奇迹。分析句子可知，该空引导非限制性定语从句，先行词trip，指物，关系词代替它在从句中作主语，应用关系代词which。故填which。
【37题详解】

【38题详解】
考查形容词。句意：儿子与他的父亲开始这些惊人的旅行，因为父亲得了癌症——一个严重的疾病。该空需要形容词作定语修饰名词trips。所给词amaze是动词，其形容词amazing“惊人的”符合题意。故填amazing。

【42题详解】
考查名词复数。句意：他们旅行了13000多公里，在不同的国家拍摄了超过11万张照片。该空所给名词picture是可数名词，结合空前110000可知，应使用名词复数。故填pictures。
【43题详解】
考查介词。句意：令他们吃惊的是，他的父亲变得更好了，也变得更开朗了。介词固定短语to one’s surprise 表示“令某人感到惊讶的是”符合题意，位于句首首字母大写。故填To。
【44题详解】
考查形容词比较级。句意：令他们吃惊的是，他的父亲变得更好了，也变得更开朗了。所给形容词good在句中做表语，结合下文“became more open-hearted.”可知，应使用形容词比较级，表示父亲和以前相比的变化。故填better。
【45题详解】
考查冠词。句意：他甚至自学拉小提琴，在练习之后，他拉得非常好。演奏乐器前应使用定冠词the，play the violin“拉小提琴”。故填the。
