Section A Passage Reading
Format Ⅰ
Directions: There are four passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. You should decide on the best choice and blacken the corresponding letter on The Answer Sheet.
When I was young, my family was so poor that we even picked wild vegetables to eat. I started playing soccer at primary school, but I quit after several months because my grandmother was worried we wouldn't be able to afford treatment if I got injured. My PE teacher visited my family to persuade me to continue because he thought I was a good player. He even bought me a bike to ride to the training venue. Eventually, my mom agreed.
I became a professional player on the provincial women's team based in Guangzhou, Guangdong Province. Although I flew all over the country for games, I was a new member, so I had few opportunities to get on the field because I was a new member. When I was 25, I chose to leave.
I used to sell clothes, watches and property. I wanted to be a teacher, so I regretted not finishing college. However, I got my bachelor's degree in 2020 and am now a PE teacher at a primary school. I also have a 13-year-old daughter. Except during my pregnancy, I always played soccer.
My husband supports me playing the sport. He practices with me and helps me analyze tactics (战术) after games. Last year, when I was competing in the National Games, he told netizens that one of the players was his wife while watching a livestream (直播) of the game on social media.
The games last year saw the best result of my soccer career. Now, I want to teach my students about the sport's spirit of unity and not giving up.

American students had been learning from home for more than a year during the pandemic (全球疫情). When they returned to in-person learning, teachers began to see more behavioral problems.
Sarah Potpinka is an art teacher. She said, "Coming back into the building, a lot of kids fell out of the good habits they had built up in previous years. " She saw more fights and arguments among students. Some refused to wear the required face coverings. Other students broke school rules by leaving in the middle of class to meet up with friends.
"Obviously throughout this pandemic, the students spent a lot of time at home and because of that they lack those social skills," said Danielle Trejo. She is a school counselor in Austin, Texas.
Bad behavior among students is part of what experts are calling a mental health crisis among children. Childhood depression is also a serious problem. A group of mental health organizations say that one in three students reported feeling lonely or hopeless. Half of all mental illness appears by the age of 14 but few students get the services they need.
Richard Douglas is a school psychologist at Putnam High School with over 30 years of experience. He feels school officials provide enough support to deal with the crisis at Putnam. For the school of around just 250 students, there is also a counselor, a social worker, and two recently hired interventionists. Interventionists help identify learning and behavioral problems among students.
Only Idaho and the District of Columbia go beyond the nationally recommended number of one psychologist for every 500 students. In some states, including West Virginia, Missouri, Texas and Georgia, there is only one school psychologist for over 4,000 students.
6、Teachers began to notice more behavioral problems ______.
A.when students began learning from home during the pandemic
B.when students tried to seek help from a psychologist
C.when students came back to learn face to face
D.when students felt lonely
7、Which of the following is considered good behavior for students according to the passage? ______
A.Having fights and arguments.
B.Wearing the required face coverings.

8、What is the role of interventionists according to the passage? ______
A.To offer students financial support.
B.To keep students engaged in schoolwork.
C.To give medical help to students who have mental illness.
D.To help find out students' learning and behavioral problems.
9、How many psychologists are needed for 4,000 students according to the nationally recommended number? ______
A.4. B.6. C.8. D.10.
10、What is the passage mainly about? ______
A.How to improve in-person learning.
B.How to protect oneself during the pandemic.
C.How to deal with mental health crisis in schools.
D.How to identify students' mental health problems.
Buying an electric car(电动汽车) instead of a gasoline-powered car(燃油汽车) is a good way to help fight climate change, but what if you already have a gasoline-powered car that's working perfectly fine? Should you sell it and go electric? What's the best way to reduce your carbon emission(碳排放) when it comes to getting where you need to go?
Kenneth Gillingham, a professor of economics at Yale, says that there are multiple factors to consider when it comes to your transportation choices. Producing new cars and transporting them contributes to greenhouse gas emissions, so it's important to consider that when you're thinking about this issue—even though research has shown producing an electric vehicle is less harmful to the environment than producing a gas-powered vehicle. If you have a car that's really fuel efficient, he says, it's probably fine to just keep it for a while.
On the other hand, it is good to help increase demand for electric vehicles. "In this stage of electric vehicle development, it is really beneficial to have demand for electric vehicles to show the automakers there is a market here and they really can shift 90 percent of their research and development dollars toward electric vehicles and people will buy them." Gillingham says.
Beyond the issue of what kind of car you own or might soon buy, it's also important to consider how you're using your car and if you need a car at all. Driving less reduces air pollution, especially when replaced by walking or biking. And using public transport also helps reduce much you're contributing to climate change.
But there is a big debate over whether using ride services is better or worse for the environment than driving your own car somewhere. All researchers seem to agree that it is worse because drivers spend over 40 percent of their time driving without a passenger while they're in between trips.
11、Which of the following is a good way to help fight climate change? ______
A.Trying to drive an electric car wherever we go.
B.Buying an electric car rather than a gasoline-powered car.
C.Selling our gasoline-powered cars when they are fuel efficient.
D.Keeping our gasoline-powered cars even though they are not working very well.
12、What is an important consideration about transportation choices according to Paragraph 2? ______
A.Taking public transport is the best choice.
B.Producing and transporting cars can cause gas emissions.
C.Producing a gas-powered vehicle is less harmful than producing an electric car.
D.Walking or riding a bike contributes less carbon emission than driving a car.
13、Which of the following is the best way to reduce carbon emission when you go out? ______
A.To walk or ride a bike. B.To drive an electric car.
C.To use public transport. D.To drive a gasoline-powered car.
14、Which of the following is NOT included in the issues for consideration in order to protect the environment? ______
A.The price of your car. B.The way to use your car.
C.The kind of car you own. D.The kind of car you want to buy.
15、What is the topic of this passage? ______
A.The importance of increasing demand for electric cars.
B.A comparison between electric and gas-powered cars.
C.Both advantages and disadvantages of an electric car.
D.The relationship between transportation choices and gas emission.
When you prepare a speech, you should remember that there is no way to satisfy the needs of all the listeners. Audiences, large or small, are complex and have different requirements when receiving and digesting information, which needs to be considered at the planning stage of your presentation.
Adapting your speech based on your audience size should be one of the first things for you to do. Larger audiences often have little or no audience participation(参与), so you need to ensure that your speech is long enough to fill the time required. It's also much harder to get the attention of a larger group of people so your tone and body language are more important than ever and maintaining eye contact with as many individuals around the room is necessary to keep them involved.
For smaller audiences, they are more relaxed and often have more opportunity to take part in a conversation. This means you'll need to have time for questions or comments throughout the speech.
Another way in which you'll need to adapt your speech is to consider whether you are talking to other experts in the same field, or to beginners or an audience with limited knowledge about the topic. The most effective way to do this is to create two versions(版本) of your speech that have quite different content. Otherwise, both experts and beginners may lose interest.
16、What should you consider when you plan your presentation? ______
A.The size of the audience.
B.The way of making a speech.
C.The body language you will use.
D.The audiences' different requirements about information.
17、Which of the following should you NOT do when giving a speech to a large audience? ______
A.Prepare a speech long enough.
B.Pay attention to your tone and body language.
C.Ask the audience as many questions as possible.
D.Try to maintain eye contact with as many people as possible.
18、What should you do to enable a small audience to participate in a speech? ______
A.Use your body language.
B.Make the speech more formal.
C.Maintain eye contact with them.
D.Give them time to ask questions or make comments.
19、What should you do when you find the listeners are no longer interested in your speech? ______
A.End the speech. B.Adapt the speech.
C.Continue the speech. D.Ignore audiences' response.
20、What's the main idea of the passage? ______
A.A good speaker should adapt to different audiences.
B.A good speaker can satisfy the needs of all the audiences.
C.A good speaker can always get the attention of audiences.
D.A good speaker should prepare the same information for all kinds of audiences.
Format Ⅱ
Directions: In the following passage, some sentences have been removed. For questions 21-25, choose the most suitable one from the list A-G to fit into each of the numbered blanks. There are two extra choices, which do not fit into any of the blanks. You should decide on the best choice and blacken the corresponding letter on The Answer Sheet.
In our daily life, it is very important to build trust in interpersonal relations. Here are some suggestions about how to do that.
21 . Maintaining eye contact when someone is talking will help build trust because it shows genuine interest, but that's hard to do if you keep glancing at your phone.
22 . You might only be crossing your arms and legs, let's say, because you're cold, but that position can also be understood as an unconscious way to defend yourself, so it is not good for building trust. Make sure your body looks open—you'll look more open to hear others' thoughts.
23 . Sitting behind a desk creates another barrier that could make the person you're talking to put his or her own walls up. During class, a teacher can encourage his or her students to voice their opinions by sitting at a table with them.
24 . Sitting higher than other people indicates you have control over them—which is great if you want to seem more powerful, but not so good if you're trying to build trust. In a similar way, sitting in the middle of a conference table instead of at the end helps encourage people to express better ideas.
25 . Sometimes taking notes is necessary when you're talking with other people, but make sure it doesn't get in the way of your eye contact. If you're constantly writing down what the other person says, that person could start to feel uncomfortable.
A. Take notes constantly
B. Don't sit behind a desk
C. Limit your note taking
D. Put your phone down
E. Uncross your arms and legs
F. Come down to their level
G. Don't sit side by side
Section B Banked Cloze
Directions: In this section, there is a passage with ten blanks. You are required to select one word for each blank from a list of choices given in a word bank following the passage.

You may not use any of the words in the word bank more than once.
With Mother's Day 2022 coming up shortly, many have already turned their focus and thoughts toward the moms, aunts, grandmothers and others who have 26 a big difference in their lives and helped them become the people they are today. Taylor in Florida shared the 27 his own mother had had on his life. He said that his mom Linda taught him that, "If you want something, you need to fight 28 it. Never give up."

Section B Short Answer Questions
Directions: In this part there is a short passage followed by five questions or incomplete statements. Read the passage carefully. Then answer the questions or complete the statements with no more than 10 words. Please write your answers on The Answer Sheet.
A man wondered if his wife had a hearing problem. One night he stood behind her while she sat reading and asked, "Honey, can you hear me?" There was no response, so he moved closer. "Honey, can you hear me?" There was still no response, so he moved right behind her. "Honey, can you hear me?" "For the third time—yes!"
The inability to hear and understand spoken language is one of the most significant sensory issues that affect older adults. Hearing loss may result from perceptual(感知的) problems in the brain itself. Training programs, such as learning to lip-read, can help older adults optimize(优化) the hearing they do have.
The joke at the beginning shows an important truth about age-related hearing loss: the person with the problem may be the last one to admit it. Many individuals who begin to struggle with hearing loss go through a period of denial; after all, it's easier to tell yourself that other people speak unclearly than it is to confront a significant listening problem. Left untreated, the social isolation created by age-related hearing loss can negatively affect an older adult's quality of life.
It may come as a surprise to learn that baby boomers(出生于婴儿潮时期的人), the first generation exposed to loud music on a regular basis, may actually have better hearing than their parents' generation. This could be due to a decline in smoking rates, lower rates of employment in industrial jobs, and a greater use of hearing protection. However, their own children may not be as fortunate, given the tendency of teenagers to listen to music via earphones at high volume.
56、Who had a hearing problem in the joke?
57、What can help older adults optimize their hearing?
58、What would be the first reaction when people find they suffer hearing loss?
59、Baby boomers may have ______ hearing than their parents.
60、Why may baby boomers' children not be so fortunate?

Section B English-Chinese Translation
Directions: Translate into Chinese the underlined sentences in the following passage. Please write your translation on The Answer Sheet.
66 It's often said that reading and collecting books are two different hobbies—and buying books can get expensive. Charity(慈善) shops are one solution, especially if you aren't looking for new books. Any member of the public can donate their unwanted items to them—clothes, books, and so on. These items are priced up to be sold at a heavily discounted price.
The emergence of online charity shops makes it even easier to find books when you're looking for something specific. You can borrow books from the shops and take them home. 67 If you're struggling for space, why not return books to them after reading? You can even request books and they'll be automatically downloaded to your phone when ready. 68 In this way, you can save space and limit your spending. You can also support libraries and authors.
This does tie your reading ability to your phone's charge and could increase your screen time. But it's also a great way to associate reading with something you have already used, alongside providing free access to books. 69 The library system also encourages immediate reading rather than an endless "to be read" list—if you don't use it, you lose it.
70 Once you've got your books, the next step is to read them. That's not as easy as it sounds, as anyone with shelves of unread books can testify(证实).
