Section A

News Report One

Across the U. S., families are looking to the winter with fear as energy costs soar. A number of factors are creating a bad situation: Global energy consumption is up, but supplies have been reduced.[1] The Energy Department projects heating bills will jump 28% this winter for those who rely on natural gas. Natural gas is used by nearly half of U. S. households for heat. Heating oil is projected to be 27% higher and electricity 10% higher. That comes against inflation rates that accelerated last month with consumer prices growing 6.6%. That's the fastest pace in four decades.

The pain will be especially acute in parts of the country that heavily rely on heating oil to keep homes warm. It's projected to cost more than $2,300 to heat a typical home with heating oil this winter. [2] Last month, the federal government added $1 billion in funding to Low Income Home Energy Assistance Program, bringing the total to $4.8 billion. But that represents a reduction from last year's energy assistance package of over $8 billion.

1. Why are families across the U. S. looking to this winter with fear?

2. What did the federal government do last month?

News Report Two

[3] Many Americans think they make healthy food choices, but they may be viewing their diet too optimistically.That's the main finding of a new study by researchers at the U. S. Department of Agriculture in Stoneville, Mississippi.

The study aimed to identify disconnects between how healthily Americans think they eat and how they actually do. For the study, the researchers asked participants to rate their diet as excellent, very good, good, fair or poor. Folks also completed 24-hour food questionnaires. Then, the researchers compared answers to see how well responses to the two exercises matched up.

Of more than 9,700 people, roughly 85 percent were off base when asked to rate the quality of their diet, and almost all overestimated how healthy it was.[4] Those who rated their diet as poor tended to be far more accurate. Their rating match that of the researchers more than nine times out of ten.

3. What is the main finding of a new study about many Americans?

4. Who tended to rate their diet more accurately in the survey?

News Report Three

[5] It was a heartwarming moment that dozens of Indian rescuers rallied together to use a crane in order to savean elephant trapped at the bottom of a 20-foot well. The massive rescue effort took place last week close to an army camp. The elephant wandered out of the jungle and fell into the well. The army officers heard a noise coming from the well and realized an elephant was trapped deep inside.[6] The officers then threw in some food for the creature and called the local forest department for help. Video of the rescue operation shows how the team used a crane to lift up the huge animal out of the well and onto the back of a truck. It was then taken to an examining room for evaluation of any injuries. [7] The elephant was kept under close supervision for a few days before it was successfully released back into the wild.

5. What does the report say dozens of Indians did last week?

6. Why did the army officers call the local forest department?

7. What does the news report say happened finally?

Section B

Conversation One

M: I need to stop at the bank to withdraw some cash.

W: Why not just pay with your phone?

M: Well, actually, I' ve stopped using online payments for the past three months now.

W: Stopped paying online? Oh, you must be worried that online payments aren't secure.

M: No, they are safe. [8] But paying online is too convenient and I spent too much money on things I didn't need.

W: [9] Oh, impulse purchases can be an issue for me, too. I' ve definitely bought clothes and shoes I didn't need because they were on sale, and paying with my phone was so easy. But I' ve found that if I review my spending every night, that keeps me from spending too much.

M: I tried that strategy, but it just didn't work, because I'd be busy studying all day. Then, when I was tired and hungry,I'd use my phone to order food, like burgers and other junk,[10] instead of going to the canteen, where I could get a healthier meal for half the price.

W: Well, what do you do now then? It seems like you'd have the same problems with cash.

M: I go to the bank once a week, and the rest of the time I keep my bank card at home, so I can't get more cash out. And I also have a notebook where I record my expenses.

W: But what prevents you from just going to the bank and getting more money, if you want to buy something?

M: The first month I did withdraw extra cash twice, but I felt guilty about it. [11] And after that I refused to spend more than what I had budgeted, and by now it's just a habit.

8. Why has the man stopped paying online for the last three months?

9. What problem does the woman say she may also have?

10. What does the man say he could do at the canteen?

11. What is now just a habit for the man?

Conversation Two

M: Please hear me out. I don't want our son to spend his afternoons doing something he hates, even if it might prepare him for the future. What about getting him to join a sport, like soccer? From all the running and training, he could become quite athletic. Not to mention the great physical benefits from exercising outside every day.

W: [12] Um, I don't think he should be doing something so challenging with all his breathing issues. What about playing an indoor sport, like badminton? The environment is easier to control, and he can still get a good workout, in addition to improving his hand-eye coordination. Besides, I could teach him some of the basics from my time as a badminton player.

M: Um, I'm thinking team sports should be the way to go. There's nothing like playing as part of a unit to accomplish a goal like winning a game or even a championship. [13] He could try basketball since many of the courts are indoors now and it's a sport that could help him understand team spirit while cooperating with others. Maybe he could even join the school basketball team when he's ready.

W: Oh, oh, what about volleyball? It's a team sport and they often have mixed-gender teams so he could socialize with both girls and boys.[14] It's not as popular as some sports, which means he has better odds of possibly getting an athletic scholarship in the future. I also believe you were a beach volleyball athlete yourself not so long ago.

M: As I' ve said many times before,[15] beach volleyball and indoor volleyball are completely different.

12. Why is the woman opposed to their son joining a sport like soccer?

13. What does the man suggest their son try in order to understand team spirit?

14. What is one of the woman's considerations in choosing a sport for her son?

15. What does the man say about beach volleyball?

Section C

Passage One

[16] Lift-off is usually the most environmentally harmful stage of any space mission, with vast quantities of fuelburnt up in a matter of minutes. For instance,SpaceX's Falcon 9 gets through 112 tonnes of refined fuel, emitting about 336 tonnes of CO₂. This is the equivalent produced by your average car driving almost 70 times around the world.[16]As well as greenhouse gases, rocket engines emit particles that destroy ozone. These issues are growing more pressing with the emergence of commercial spaceflight. There were 114 space launches in 2020, but there may be up to 1,000 per year in future.

Sustainable fuels are the top priority to enable greener space travel. Current spacecraft use a variety of fuels, but most are based on fossil fuels. One potentially greener option is liquid hydrogen and oxygen.Hydrogen can be obtained sustainably by using solar power to break water down into oxygen and hydrogen.

Reusable rockets can cut down on some of the waste associated with spaceflight. [17] Traditionally, boosters, fuel tanks and other components are treated as expendable. But guiding them back to Earth in a controlled manner opens new possibilities— most components from the Falcon 9 can be reused up to 100 times.

Truly environmentally friendly space travel is still some way off. [18] But we already have many of the technologies needed to start limiting its impact on our planet.

16. What do we learn from the passage about the lift-off of spacecraft?

17. What happens traditionally to boosters, fuel tanks and other components in spaceflight?

18. What does the passage say we already have regarding spaceflight?

Passage Two

Helping to look after a pet can facilitate numerous aspects of a child's emotional development. [19] Research shows that reading to a loyal and nonjudgmental companion, such as a dog or cat, can encourage reluctant readers to read aloud, which will in turn boost their self-confidence. Having a companion to talk to about their feelings can also help children feel secure and develop communication skills.

A household pet can also cultivate a child's sense of responsibility as their parent explains the necessary processes of keeping their pet happy and healthy. As a child matures, they can then take on more of the daily responsibilities, boosting their sense of independence.

[20] Pets also provide a fantastic subject for research and learning. Parents can encourage their child to researchtheir favourite pets at the library or during a supervised internet search. Taking children along to the pet shop to buy food and supplies will support their cognitive development as their passion for learning flourishes.

A child's physical development can benefit greatly from taking pets for walks in the fresh air. Even their fine-motor skills can be utilised in taking care of a beloved animal.

When responsibilities are well paced and communicated, a child can benefit greatly from involvement in bringing up a happy and healthy pet.[21] And of course, if a child doesn't have a pet in their own household, they can still benefit from all of the above when visiting a friend who does.

19. What does research show about reading to a loyal and nonjudgmental companion?

20. How can parents make pets a fantastic subject for their children's research and learning?

21. How can children still benefit even when their family doesn't have a pet?

Passage Three

[22] A new bill in the Ohio legislature would require state public colleges and universities to send prospectivestudents a packet of information. This would include costs of college, grants and scholarships. It would also include expected monthly loan payments and projected salary after college.

State Representative Adam Mathews is one of the two legislators who proposed the bill. He said it would give prospective students more information about what to expect once they graduate. “Putting that information in front of them will give them the best opportunity to match their skills and their dreams to what our schools can provide,”said Mathews.[23] He notes that the state can only regulate public institutions in this way, but he hopes private institutions in Ohio follow the lead of the state and post similar information. He believes giving out this information will help Ohio's colleges and universities to be more competitive. The information will highlight what a great value they have for their very reasonable cost.

[24] Ohio's schools are already competitive. The state attracts more undergraduate students than it sends tocolleges out of state.[25] Many colleges and universities currently provide similar information on their websites. This includes tuition, fees, graduation rates and more. But students need to search for the information. This bill would require the universities and colleges to send a packet directly to students.

22. What would the new bill in the Ohio legislature require public colleges and universities to do?

23. What can the state only do according to Adam Mathews?

24. What do we learn about Ohio's schools from the passage?

25. What is the problem with schools providing information on their websites?

1.C)解析：新闻开头提到，随着能源成本的飙升，美国各地的家庭正怀着恐惧迎接这个冬天。接下来的内容具体阐述了今冬取暖费用的上涨情况。新闻提到，能源部预估，对于那些依赖天然气取暖的家庭来说，今年冬天的取暖费将上涨28%。取暖用油的费用预计将高出27%，电费预计将高出10%。这些数据都表明美国家庭担忧的是取暖费用大幅增加，要支付高昂的取暖账单，故选C。选项A表述错误，新闻中提到，依赖天然气取暖的家庭今年冬天的取暖费将上涨28%，可推测天然气价格将上涨28%，而非27%。新闻中虽提到取暖用油的费用预计上涨27%，但依赖取暖用油供暖只是部分美国家庭的情况，故排除B。新闻中只提到消费者价格上涨6.6%，是40年来最快涨幅，并未提及美国家庭将经历40年来最寒冷的冬天，故排除D。

2.A)解析：新闻末尾提到，上个月，联邦政府为低收入家庭能源援助计划增加了10亿美元(added$1 billion)的资金，使该计划的总金额达到48亿美元，故选项A为正确答案，选项中的additional funding对应新闻中的added $1 billion，同时据此排除选项D。新闻中，联邦政府并未预测今年冬天大多数美国家庭的取暖费上涨幅度，而新闻前半部分提及，能源部对此进行过预估，使用天然气取暖的家庭取暖费涨幅为28%，使用取暖用油供暖的家庭取暖费涨幅为27%，使用电取暖的家庭取暖费涨幅为10%，取暖方式不同，涨幅不同，故排除选项C。选项B新闻并未提及，可排除。

3.C)解析：新闻开头就提到，许多美国人认为他们做出了健康的饮食选择，但他们可能对自己的饮食过于乐观了。这是位于密西西比州斯通维尔的美国农业部研究人员一项新研究的主要发现。由此可知，选项C为正确答案。其余三项新闻中均未提及，可排除。

4.D)解析：新闻末尾提到，这项新研究发现，在调查的9700多人中，大约85%的人在评估自己饮食的品质时是完全错误的，几乎所有人都高估了自己饮食的健康程度。那些将自己饮食评为“差”的人往往准确得多。由此可知，选项D为正确答案。

5.B)解析：新闻开头就提到，数十名印度救援人员齐心协力，用起重机来营救一头困在二十英尺深井底部的大象。由此可知，B为正确答案。根据新闻所述，是一个军营的军官们先听到井里大象发出的声音，因此呼叫林业部门寻求帮助，而非这数十名印度救援人员听到井底有响声，故排除C。其余两项新闻中未提及，可排除。

6.B)解析：新闻中提到，军营的军官们听到了井里传出来的声音，意识到一头大象被困在了井底，因此呼叫了当地林业部门寻求帮助。由此可知，B为正确答案。新闻中提到，救援队在对大象进行救援时使用了起重机，而非军官们借用起重机，故排除A。新闻中提到，军官们在发现大象后，向井里投喂了一些食物，并没有说食物是从当地林业部那里寻来的，故排除D。选项C新闻中未提及，可排除。

7.A)解析：新闻末尾提到，大象在被密切监护了几天后，最终被成功放归野外。由此可知，A为正确答案。根据新闻所述，接受伤势检查的是大象，而非军官们，故排除B。新闻末尾提到，大象被密切监护了几天，而不是接受了多日的医疗救治，故排除D。选项C新闻中未提及，可排除。

8.B)解析：在对话开头部分，男士告诉女士他已经有三个月没用在线支付了。女士以为男士停用在线支付的原因是他担心在线支付不安全，但是男士否定了女士的看法。他说自己停用在线支付的原因是它太方便了，导致他在不需要的东西上花了太多钱，所以答案是B项，同时排除A项和C项。D项在对话中没有相关信息，故排除。

9.D)解析：在对话中，当男士提到自己在不需要的东西上花了太多钱，女士紧接着说冲动消费对她来说也是个问题，所以答案是D项。A、B两项在对话中没有相关信息，故均排除；虽然女士提到自己因为打折买过不需要的衣服和鞋子，但是C项“对时尚上瘾”的说法与此并不一致，故排除。

10.A)解析：在对话中，男士提到如果他去食堂，他就可以在那里用一半的价钱吃到更健康的饭菜，所以答案是A项。男士提到自己又累又饿的时候，就会用手机点食物，比如汉堡和其他垃圾食品，所以他不是在食堂点像汉堡和薯条之类的食物，故排除B项；对话中也没有提到他在食堂吃饭可以避免对垃圾食品上瘾，故排除C项；D项在对话中没有相关信息，故也排除。

11.B)解析：在对话结尾，男士说自己养成了拒绝超预算支出的习惯，所以答案是B项。男士提到自己每周去一次银行取现金，所以C项错误，故排除；A项和D项在对话中都没有相关信息，故均排除。

12.C)解析：在对话开头，男士提到他不想让儿子把下午的时间花在讨厌的事情上，所以他提议让他参加一项运动，比如足球。女士考虑到儿子有呼吸方面的问题，因此她认为他不应该参加像足球这类有挑战性的运动，所以答案是C项。A项张冠李戴，男士提议让儿子踢足球，目的是替换儿子可能讨厌的其他事，由此可知踢足球并非儿子讨厌之事，故排除；B项过度推断，男士只是提及不想让儿子把时间花在可能对未来有帮助但他却讨厌的事上，这一表述并不能合理推断出女士认为儿子必须为将来做准备，故排除；D项曲解信息，女士反对的出发点是儿子的呼吸问题，认为他不适合参与足球这类有挑战性的运动，并非意味着儿子做不了任何有挑战性的事，该项对女士的意思进行了错误解读，故也排除。

13.D)解析：在对话中，男士指出团队运动对儿子来说是最好的选择，然后他提出了让儿子打篮球的建议，并说明原因，其中一个就是篮球这项运动能够帮助儿子在与他人合作时理解团队精神，所以答案是D项。其他三个选项虽然都在对话中出现了，但不符合本题题意，故均排除。

14.C)解析：在对话中，女士明确表示排球不像一些运动那么受欢迎，所以儿子将来获得体育奖学金的机会更大，这体现了女士在为儿子选择运动时考虑到了日后获得体育奖学金的机会这个因素，所以答案是C项。男士提到过让儿子加入学校篮球队，但女士为儿子选择运动时未提及此点，故排除A项；男士提到过可以作为团队的一员去实现赢得比赛甚至冠军的目标，但女士在为儿子选择运动时未提及此因素，故排除B项；对话中并未提及女士考虑让儿子成为职业运动员的相关信息，故排除D项。

15.A)解析：在对话结尾，男士明确表示沙滩排球和室内排球完全不同，所以此题选A项。男士强调的是沙滩排球和室内排球的不同，并非沙滩排球与其他户外运动的不同，故排除D项。B、C两项在对话中均没有提到，故排除。

16.B)解析：文章开头提到，发射阶段通常是任何太空任务中对环境危害最大的阶段，大量燃料在几分钟内就会燃烧殆尽。除了温室气体之外，火箭发动机还会排放破坏臭氧层的微粒。由此可知，航天器在发射升空时，既会产生大量温室气体，又会对臭氧层造成损害，选项B与文章内容一致，因此为正确答案。文中提及太空探索技术公司的“猎鹰9号”火箭消耗112吨精炼燃料并排放约336吨二氧化碳这一具体实例，而选项C正是依据此例中的特定数据信息所设置的干扰项，但其不能代表所有航天器发射升空时的普遍情况，且选项中的数据与这一实例也不相符，故排除。根据文章内容，航天器的发射阶段是太空任务中对环境危害最大的阶段，而非最复杂的阶段，故排除选项D。

17.D)解析：文章中提到，传统上，助推器、燃料箱和其他部件都被视作消耗品。选项D与文章内容一致，因此为正确答案。选项A文章中未提及，故排除。选项B和C描述的情况均是针对“猎鹰9号”的部件而言的处理方式，并非题目所指的传统航天飞行中对这些部件的处理方法，所以这两个选项也不符合题意，故排除。

18.C)解析：文章最后提到，我们已经拥有了许多必要的技术，可用于开始限制太空旅行对地球的影响。选项C与文章内容一致，因此为正确答案。选项A、B和D文章中均未提及，故排除。

19.B)解析：文章开头提到，研究表明，给狗或猫这样忠诚且不做评判的伙伴读书，能够鼓励那些不太愿意朗读的读者大声朗读。选项B与文章内容一致，因此为正确答案。文中指出有个可以倾诉感受的伙伴，有助于孩子们获得安全感，而非提升阅读能力欠佳的读者的安全感，故排除选项A。文中说的是给狗或猫读书可以增强自信心，而不是增强对他人的信任，故排除选项C。选项D在文章中未提及，故排除。

20.A)解析：文章中提到，宠物也为研究和学习提供了一个绝佳主题。家长可以鼓励孩子去图书馆或在有监管的网络搜索中研究他们最喜欢的宠物。选项A与文章内容一致，因此为正确答案。选项B提到“带孩子们去图书馆借阅有关动物的书籍”，但原文强调的是“鼓励孩子去图书馆”“研究他们最喜欢的宠物”，故排除。选项C表述为“让孩子们自行上网搜索”，而文中明确指出的是“在有监管的网络搜索中……”，该选项忽略了原文中的关键限定条件，故排除。选项D在文章中未提及，也排除。

21.D)解析：文章最后提到，如果孩子自家没养宠物，在拜访养宠物的朋友时，他们同样可以从上述所有方面受益。选项D与文章内容一致，因此为正确答案。选项A、B和C在文章中均未提及，故排除。

22.A)解析：文章开头提到，俄亥俄州立法机构的一项新法案将要求该州的公立学院和大学向潜在的学生发送一套信息资料。选项A与文章内容一致，因此为正确答案。选项B、C和D文章中均未提及，故排除。

23.D)解析：文章中提到，亚当·马修斯指出，该州只能以这种方式对公立院校进行监管，但他希望俄亥俄州的私立院校能效仿州里的做法，发布类似信息。再结合前文提到的该州立法机构发布了新法案，可知选项D为正确答案。反观选项A，文中表明该州对于私立院校无法直接进行监管，而是希望其效仿公立院校的做法，故排除。同样，选项C中提到的“监管所有学校”也不符合原文所阐述的情况，因为对于私立院校，该州无法直接监管，故排除。选项B文章中未提及，故排除。

24.B)解析：文章中提到，俄亥俄州的院校已经颇具竞争力。选项B与文章内容一致，因此为正确答案。选项A、C和D文章中均未提及，故排除。

25.C)解析：文章中提到，许多学院和大学目前已在其网站上提供了类似信息，包括学费、杂费、毕业率等等。但学生需要自行查找这些信息。选项C与文章内容一致，因此为正确答案。选项A、B和D文章中均未提及，故排除。
