长LeonardLauder将这种现象称为“口红效应”,空格处意为“把……称为”,是term,这种现象是被称为“口红效应”,用被动语态,空格前有was,空格处用过去分词。故选G。【34题详解】考查形容词。句意:他不仅在工作中目睹了这种现象,而且还意识到这种现象在口红和其他化妆品中尤其明显。由上文“consumersspendingonsmallluxurygoods”可知,这种现象在口红和其他化妆品中尤其明显,空格处意为“明显的”,用形容词evident作表语。故选K。【35题详解】考查动词时态。句意:那么,缺乏现金的消费者究竟如何证明他们的购买行为是合理的呢?由下文“consumersmaysimplywishtogivethemselvestreatsnowandagaintoprovidedistractionsfromtheirfinancialinsecurity”可知,句子表示“缺乏现金的消费者究竟如何证明他们的购买行为是合理的呢”,空格处意为“证明……合理”,是justify,句子是特殊疑问句,空前有howexactlydo,因此空格处用原形。故选A。【36题详解】考查副词。句意:首先,也许也是最明显的,消费者可能只是想时不时地犒劳一下自己,让自己从财务上的不安全感中转移注意力。由下文“consumersmaysimplywishtogivethemselvestreatsnowandagaintoprovidedistractionsfromtheirfinancialinsecurity”可知,句子表示“也许也是最明显的,消费者可能只是想时不时地犒劳一下自己,让自己从财务上的不安全感中转移注意力”,空格处意为“明显地”,用副词作状语,修饰后面的句子,是obviously。故选F。【37题详解】考查名词。句意:另一种理论与劳动力市场有关。由下文“Specifically,duringtheeconomicdepression,jobseekingtendstobecomemorecompetitive.Thus,people___8___employmentmayperceiveaneedtospendmoneyoncertainproductstoimprovetheirphysicalappearance.Byusingproductssuchaslipstick,theymayfeelmoreconfidentduringjobinterviews.”可知,此处指的是“另一种理论与劳动力市场有关”,空格处意为“理论”,是theory。全科免费下载公众号《高中僧课堂》故选C。【38题详解】考查非谓语动词。句意:因此,找工作的人可能会觉得有必要花钱购买某些产品来改善他们的外貌。由下文“theymayfeelmoreconfidentduringjobinterviews”可知,找工作的人可能会觉得有必要花钱购买某些产品来改善他们的外貌,空格处意为“寻找”,是seek,句中谓语是mayperceive,空格处用非谓语动词,people和seek
之间是主谓关系,因此空格处用现在分词表主动,作后置定语。故选J。【39题详解】考查名词。句意:无论口红效应的原因是什么,这种现象都不会昙花一现。由下文“theluxurycosmeticsindustryisonethatwillbestickingaround”可知,这种现象都不会昙花一现,这将成为一种趋势,空格处意为“趋势”,是trend。故选B。【40题详解】考查名词。句意:根据这些数据,即使在目前不稳定的经济气候下,奢侈品化妆品行业似乎也会继续存在。由第一段的“theCOVID-19pandemiccausedwidespreadclosurestobusinesses”可知,句子表示“即使在目前不稳定的经济气候下,奢侈品化妆品行业似乎也会继续存在”,空格处意为“环境,气候”,是climate。故选H。III.ReadingComprehensionSectionADirections:ForeachblankinthefollowingpassagetherearefourwordsorphrasesmarkedA,B,CandD.Fillineachblankwiththewordorphrasethatbestfitsthecontext.Thehumanmemoryisphenomenallystrong.Italsohasahabitofgettingthingsbadlywrong.AccordingtoJonathanHancock,ourmemoryexpert,faultymemoriescanbe___41___revealing.Justlastweek,___42___,mywifeandIwerediscussinghowwe’dchosenouryoungestson’sname.Ihada___43___memoryofuswritingoutalistofpossiblenames,butstoppingafterjustafewbecausewe’dspottedonewebothloved.Mywife___44___.Inhermemory,we’dhadamuchlongerlist,andgonebackandchosenonefromthemiddleofthelist.Sowedugoutthepieceofpaperwe’dused-andfoundthatwe’dactuallydonesomethingcompletely___45___tochooseNate’snameMemorymistakeshappenonalargerscale,too.The“MandelaEffect”iswhenlotsofpeoplehaveconfidentrecollectionsthatturnouttobe___46___.ItwasnamedbyresearcherswhowerediscussingtheirstrongmemoriesofNelsonMandela’sdeathinprison-whenheactuallylivedfor23yearsafterhis___47___.Thereareplentyofotherexamplesofthisphenomenon.Ifyou’resurethatyourememberseeing

好。研究人员认为,疲惫的学习者对单词规则的有意识分析较少:他们像孩子一样自由地学习)”可知,一些比利时人在语言测试之前被安排了一个更难的测试,原因是他们会在精神上太累而无法有意识地分析规则。故选B。【64题详解】推理判断题。根据倒数第二段的“Theparticipantsguessedwhichwordwasfamiliar,thenratedtheirconfidence.(参与者猜测哪个词是他们熟悉的,然后评估他们的信心)”和最后一段的“Inbothgroups,thesemeasuresimprovedparticipants’performanceonthesyllabletaskwhentheywereunsureabouttheiranswers,indicatingunconsciousanalysisofspeech.(在两组中,当参与者对自己的答案不确定时,这些测试都提高了他们在音节测试中的表现,这表明他们对语音进行了无意识的分析)”可知,与没有接受磁脉冲的参与者相比,接受磁脉冲的参与者在音节任务中发现了更熟悉的组合。故选B。【65题详解】推理判断题。根据最后一段的“That’sreallygoodinsciencebecauseyou’vegotevidencespointingtothesamedirection(这在科学上真的很好,因为你有证据指向同一个方向)”可知,从MichaelUllman的话中可以推断出这两项研究的结果相互印证。故选C。【66题详解】推理判断题。根据第一段的“Childrenoftenlearnnewlanguagesmoreeasilythanadultsdo,butit’sunclearwhy.Sometheorizethatgraspingalanguagerequiresabsorbingsubtlepatternsunconsciouslyandthatadults’superiorconsciousreasoningistoblame.Newresearchsuggeststhat,indeed,grown-upsmightjustbetoosmartfortheirowngood.(儿童学习新语言通常比成年人更容易,但原因尚不清楚。一些理论认为,掌握一门语言需要无意识地吸收微妙的模式,成年人学新语言不容易该怪成年人超强的有意识推理能力。一项新的研究表明,事实上,成年人可能太聪明了,这对他们自己没有好处)”可知,研究团队会同意的理论是减少推理可能有助于学习一门语言。故选D。SectionCDirections:Readthepassagecarefully.Fillineachblankwithapropersentencegiveninthebox.Eachsentencecanbeusedonlyonce.Notethattherearetwomoresentencesthanyouneed.TouchingEmoji(表情符号)DistancingamidtheCOVID-19pandemichasmadebothphysicalandsocialconnectionsatouch

learningismeanttodevelopstudents’abilitytosolvepracticalproblems.73.有被讨厌的勇气是活得淋漓尽致的第一步。(courage)(汉译英)【答案】Havingthecouragetobedislikedisthefirststeptowardlivinglifetothefullest.【解析】【详解】考查非谓语动词和固定短语。分析句子,句子表述客观事实,故使用一般现在时。表示“有勇气去做某事”用havethecouragetodosth,此处使用动名词作主语,表示“被讨厌”用不定式的被动结构,即tobedisliked;表示“是第一步去做某事”用bethefirststeptowarddoing;表示“对于活得淋漓尽致”用isthefirststeptowardlivingtothefullest。故翻译为:Havingthecouragetobedislikedisthefirststeptowardlivinglifetothefullest。74.惊叹于中国工人把集装箱变成酒店房间的速度,锦标赛组织者称他们为魔术师。(so...)(汉译英)【答案】ThetournamentorganizersweresoamazedatthespeedatwhichtheChineseworkersturnedthecontainersintohotelroomsthattheydescribedthemasmagicians.【解析】【详解】考查时态,从句和短语。根据句意可知,用一般过去时,主语“锦标赛组织者”译为thetournamentorganizers,谓语“惊叹于”译为beamazedat,结合提示词用so...that句型,宾语thespeed“速度”,“中国工人把集装箱变成酒店房间的”译为定语从句,修饰thespeed,atthespeed“以……速度”是固定短语,故从句用atwhich引导,which指代先行词thespeed,故从句为atwhichtheChineseworkersturnedthecontainersintohotelrooms,“称他们为魔术师”译为theydescribedthemasmagicians,是结果状语从句,结合主谓一致,故答案为ThetournamentorganizersweresoamazedatthespeedatwhichtheChineseworkersturnedthecontainersintohotelroomsthattheydescribedthemasmagicians.75.在古代,二十四节气(the24solarterms)指导农民预测冷暖,春种秋收,如今其魅力依然如故。(as...as)(汉译英)【答案】The24solartermsinancienttimesinstructedfarmerstoexpectchangesintemperature,springplantingandautumnharvestandtodaytheyareascharmingastheywereinthepast.The24solartermsinancienttimesinstructedfarmerstoexpectwhenthedaysweregettingcolderorwarmer,guidingfarmerstosowseedsinspringandharvestcropsinautumn,andtodaytheyareascharmingastheywereinthepast.【解析】
【详解】考查时态,宾语从句,状语从句和现在分词。“在古代”是in ancient times,“二十四节气”是the 24 solar terms,“指导农民预测冷暖,春种秋收”时态用一般过去时,“指导某人做某事”是instruct sb. to dosth., “农民”是farmers,“预测冷暖”是expect changes in temperature,“春种秋收”是spring planting and autumn harvest,“如今”是today,“如今其魅力依然如故”句子时态用一般现在时,“其魅力依然如故”可理解为“和以前一样有魅力”,“有魅力的”是charming,“和以前一样有魅力”是as charming as they were in the past,是as引导比较状语从句。因此整句话翻译为“The 24 solar terms in ancient times instructed farmers to expect changes in temperature, spring planting and autumn harvest and today they are as charming as they were in the past”。另外“指导农民预测冷暖,春种秋收”也可理解为“指导农民预测天气什么时候更冷,什么时候更热,指导农民在春天播种,秋天收获庄稼”,“指导农民预测”时态用一般过去时,是instructed farmers to expect,“天气什么时候更冷,什么时候更热”用when引导的宾语从句,作expect的宾语,“天气什么时候更冷,什么时候更热”用过去进行时表将来,是the days were getting colder or warmer;“指导农民在春天播种,秋天收获庄稼”中的“指导”可换用guide,其后跟sb. to do sth.,“在春天播种,秋天收获庄稼”是sow seeds in spring and harvest crops in autumn,instructed作谓语,guide要用非谓语动词,The 24 solar terms和guide之间是主谓关系,因此用现在分词guiding表主动作状语,因此这个句子的第二种翻译是“The 24 solar terms in ancient times instructed farmers to expect when the days were getting colder or warmer, guiding farmers to sow seeds in spring and harvest crops in autumn, and today they are as charming as they were in the past.”。故答案为The 24 solar terms in ancient times instructed farmers to expect changes in temperature, spring planting and autumn harvest and today they are as charming as they were in the past./The 24 solar terms in ancient times instructed farmers to expect when the days were getting colder or warmer, guiding farmers to sow seeds in spring and harvest crops in autumn, and today they are as charming as they were in the past.VI.GuidedWriting76.Directions:WriteanEnglishcompositionin120-150wordsaccordingtotheinstructionsgivenbelowinChinese.假设你是明启中学学生李华,你校英语广播站计划在每周五中午开设名为“TalkandTalk”
