The greening of planes, trains and automobiles
Moving goods and people around the world is responsible for a large part of global CO₂ emissions(排放). As the world races to decarbonize everything, it faces particular problems with transportation—which accounts for about a quarter of our energy-related greenhouse gas emissions. Here's the breakdown of the emissions in 2018 for different modes of transport.
The fuels for transport need to be not just green, cheap and powerful, but also lightweight and safe enough to be carried around. Each mode of transport has its specific fuel needs. Much is still to be settled, but here are some of the solutions to get us going green.
This energy transition(变革)is global, and the amount of renewable energy the world will need is "a little bit mind-blowing," says mechanical engineer Keith Wipke at the National Renewable Energy Laboratory. It's estimated that the global demand for electricity could more than double by 2050. Fortunately, analyses suggest that renewables are up to the task. "We need to speed up the development of green energy, and it will all get used," says Wipke.
What percentage of global transport emissions did road vehicles account for in 2018?
A. 11.6%.
B. 45.1%.
C. 74.5%.
D. 86.1%.
Which mode of transport can go green comparatively easily?
A. Planes.
B. Trucks.
C. Trains.
D. Ships.
What does Wipke suggest regarding energy transition?
A. Limiting fuel consumption.
B. Putting more effort into renewables.
C. Improving energy efficiency.
D. Making electricity more affordable.

第22题.C 细节理解。解析:文中对应"TRAINS—Electricity"部分明确写道:"Some trains are already electrified through rails or wires; others can be made electric in pretty simple ways."(有些火车已经通过铁轨或电线电气化,其他也能用相当简单的方式实现电动化)。相比飞机(需合成碳氢燃料,长期方案)、卡车(氢燃料成本高)、船舶(液氨需重新设计引擎),火车最易实现。故选C。
第23题.B 推理判断。解析:文中最后一段他提到"We need to speed up the development of green energy, and it will all get used"(我们需要加速绿色能源的发展,而且这些能源都会被用上),并指出可再生能源有能力满足需求。这明确表明他建议加大对可再生能源的投入。故选B。
译文
飞机、火车和汽车的绿色化
在全球范围内运输货物和人员是全球二氧化碳排放的重要来源。当世界竞相脱碳时,交通成了特殊难题——它约占能源相关温室气体排放的四分之一。以下是2018年不同交通方式排放的明细。
交通燃料不仅需要绿色、廉价且动力强劲,还需要轻便且足够安全以便携带。每种交通方式都有其特定的燃料需求。许多问题仍有待解决,但以下是一些让我们走向绿色的解决方案。
这种能源变革是全球性的,世界所需可再生能源的数量"有点令人难以置信",国家可再生能源实验室的机械工程师Keith Wipke说。据估计,到2050年全球电力需求可能增加一倍以上。幸运的是,分析表明可再生能源能够胜任这一任务。"我们需要加速绿色能源的发展,而且这些能源都会被用上,"Wipke说。
题目翻译

English Market Towns to Visit in the UK
English market towns come in many shapes and sizes. Each has a personality shaped by the goods and services produced and traded for centuries. But each town has more to do than shop.
Hereford, Herefordshire
Hereford has remained a lively market town since 1189. Skirting the town square, you'll find lovely shops, eateries, and the Black and White House Museum. The Hereford Cathedral is the most impressive building in town. It's also home to an ancient library. One of the four original copies of the Magna Carta is displayed there.
Ludlow, Shropshire
Ludlow is known as the Foodie Center of England. Butcher shops, greengrocers, bakeries, and cheese shops line the town square. Bordering the square, the Ludlow Castle is a "must explore" medieval stronghold. The three-day Ludlow Food Festival is held each September.
Shrewsbury, Shropshire
Getting to Shrewsbury Town Center from London is challenging but worth the anxiety. The River Severn has a significant turn through town, almost making an island of Shrewsbury Town Center. The shape creates a perfect market where goods could be shipped and received using the river as a highway. Flowers are everywhere—hanging baskets, window boxes, and planters—just what you imagine in an attractive English market town.
Mevagissey, Cornwall
Even if you haven't been to the small fishing village Mevagissey, you've probably seen it in a movie or British TV show. The working harbor(港口)took shape in 1774. Fishermen go out to sea daily and sell their fish in harbor-side markets. Don't leave the harbor without a traditional Cornish pie. It's delicious.
Where can you find an original copy of the Magna Carta?
A. In the Ludlow Castle.
B. In the Foodie Center of England.
C. In the Hereford Cathedral.
D. In the Black and White House Museum.
What is a feature of Shrewsbury Town Center?
A. It's situated near a big island.
B. It's almost surrounded by water.
C. It's known for its flower festival.
D. It's easily accessible from London.
What does the author suggest visitors do in Mevagissey?
A. Try the Cornish pie.
B. Watch a British TV show.
C. Go fishing in the sea.
D. Take pictures of the harbor.

英国值得游览的集贸市场小镇
英国的集贸市场小镇形态各异、大小不一。每个小镇都有其由数百年来生产和交易的商品与服务所塑造的个性。但每个小镇可做的事都不仅仅是购物。
赫里福德,赫里福德郡
自1189年以来,赫里福德一直是一个热闹的集贸市场小镇。沿着镇广场,您会发现可爱的商店、餐馆和黑白房子博物馆。赫里福德大教堂是镇上最令人印象深刻的建筑。它也是一座古老图书馆的所在地。四份《大宪章》原稿中的一份就陈列在那里。
勒德洛,什罗普郡
勒德洛被称为英格兰的美食中心。肉铺、果蔬店、面包店和奶酪店沿镇广场排列。毗邻广场的勒德洛城堡是一座"必去探索"的中世纪要塞。为期三天的勒德洛美食节每年九月举行。
什鲁斯伯里,什罗普郡
从伦敦到什鲁斯伯里镇中心颇具挑战,但值得这份焦虑。塞文河在镇中有一个显著的转弯,几乎使什鲁斯伯里镇中心成为一个岛屿。这种地形造就了一个完美的市场,货物可以利用河流作为高速公路进行运输和接收。鲜花无处不在——吊篮、窗台花箱和花盆——正如您对一座迷人的英国集贸市场小镇的想象。
梅瓦吉西,康沃尔郡
即使您没去过这个小小的渔村梅瓦吉西,您也可能在电影或英国电视节目中见过它。这个运作中的港口形成于1774年。渔民每天出海,在港口边的市场出售他们的鱼。离开港口前一定要尝一块传统的康沃尔馅饼。它很美味。

PRACTITIONERS
Jacqueline Felice de Almania (c. 1322) highlights the suspicion that women practicing medicine faced. Born to a Jewish family in Florence, she moved to Paris where she worked as a physician and performed surgery. In 1322 she was tried for practicing unlawfully. In spite of the court hearing testimonials(证明)of her ability as a doctor, she was banned from medicine.
Tan Yunxian (1461-1554) was a Chinese physician who learned her skills from her grandparents. Chinese women at the time could not serve apprenticeships(学徒期)with doctors. However, Tan passed the official exam. Tan treated women from all walks of life. In 1511, Tan wrote a book, Sayings of a Female Doctor, describing her life as a physician.
James Barry (c. 1789-1865) was born Margaret Bulkley in Ireland but, dressed as a man, she was accepted by Edinburgh University to study medicine. She qualified as a surgeon in 1813, then joined the British Army, serving overseas. Barry retired in 1859, having practiced her entire medical profession living and working as a man.
Rebecca Lee Crumpler (1831-1895) worked as a nurse for eight years before studying in medical college in Boston in 1860. Four years later, she was the first African American woman to receive a medical degree. She moved to Virginia in 1865, where she provided medical care to freed slaves.

Tan Yunxian(1461-1554)是一位中国女医生,她从祖父母那里学习医术。当时的中国女性不能跟医生当学徒。然而,Tan通过了官方考试。Tan为各行各业的女性治病。1511年,Tan写了一本书《女医杂言》,描述了她作为医生的生活。
James Barry(约1789-1865)出生于爱尔兰,原名Margaret Bulkley,但女扮男装后被爱丁堡大学录取学习医学。她于1813年取得外科医生资格,随后加入英国军队,在海外服役。Barry于1859年退休,整个医学生涯都以男性身份生活和工作。
Rebecca Lee Crumpler(1831-1895)在1860年进入波士顿医学院学习之前做了八年护士。四年后,她成为第一位获得医学学位的非裔美国女性。她于1865年搬到弗吉尼亚州,为获得自由的奴隶提供医疗服务。

Pasta and pizza were on everyone's lunch menu in my native land of Italy. Everyone who had such a lunch was fair-skinned and spoke Italian. A few years later, as I stood in the lunch line with my kindergarten class in a school in Brooklyn, I realized things were no longer that simple. My classmates ranged from those kids with pale skin and large blue eyes to those with rich brown skin and dark hair. The food choices were almost as diverse as the students. In front of me was an array of foods I couldn't even name in my native language. Fearing that I would pick out something awful, I desperately tried to ask the boy ahead of me for a recommendation. Unfortunately, between us stood the barrier of language.
Although my kindergarten experience feels like a century ago, the lessons I learned will stick in my mind forever. For the past three summers, I have worked in a government agency in New York. New immigrants—much like the little girl in the lunch line—flooded our office seeking help. I often had to be an interpreter for the Italian-speaking ones. As I served the role of vital communication link, I was reminded of my desperate struggle to converse before I learned English. I watched with great sympathy as elderly Italians tried to hold a conversation in Italian with people who did not speak the language. It suddenly became very clear to me how lucky I was to be fluent in two languages.
In New York, a multicultural city, students like me are blessed with a chance to work with a diverse population. In my English to Italian translations, I've learned about social programs that I didn't know existed. This work expanded my mind in ways that are impossible inside the four walls of a classroom. Walking through the streets of Brooklyn today, I am no longer confused by this city's sounds and smells. Instead, enjoy its diversity.
What did the author realize after entering school in Brooklyn?
A. Time passed quickly.
B. English was hard to learn.
C. The food was terrible.
D. People were very different.
Who does "the little girl" in paragraph 2 refer to?
A. An Italian teacher.
B. A government official.
C. The author herself.
D. The author's classmate.
How did the summer job benefit the author?
A. It strengthened her love for school.
B. It helped sharpen her sense of direction.
C. It opened her eyes to the real world.
D. It made her childhood dream come true.

主题语境:人与社会——跨文化沟通与多元文化
【语篇导读】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者从意大利移民美国后,从最初在幼儿园感受文化差异和语言障碍,到暑期在政府机构担任翻译帮助新移民,最终开阔眼界、享受文化多样性的个人成长经历。
第21题.D 细节理解。解析:根据第一段,作者进入布鲁克林学校后,发现午餐队伍中的同学肤色、眼睛和头发各不相同,食物也多种多样,意识到"things were no longer that simple",可见她意识到人与人之间差异很大。故选D。
第22题.C 推理判断。解析:第二段中"New immigrants—much like the little girl in the lunch line"将新移民比作"午餐队伍中的小女孩",而前文描述的那个因语言障碍无法求助的小女孩正是作者在幼儿园时的自己,因此"the little girl"指的是作者本人。故选C。
第23题.C 细节理解。解析:根据最后一段,暑期工作让她了解了课堂上学不到的社会项目,拓宽了思维,使她不再对城市感到困惑,而是享受其多样性,这说明这份工作让她开阔了眼界,认识了真实世界。故选C。
译文
在我故乡意大利,每个人的午餐菜单上都有意大利面和披萨。每个吃这样午餐的人都皮肤白皙,说意大利语。几年后,当我站在布鲁克林一所学校的午餐队伍中,和幼儿园同学一起时,我意识到事情不再那么简单了。我的同学从那些皮肤苍白、蓝色大眼睛的孩子,到那些棕色皮肤、深色头发的孩子都有。食物的选择几乎和学生一样多样。在我面前是一排我甚至无法用母语命名的食物。因为害怕会挑到难吃的东西,我拼命想请前面的男孩推荐。不幸的是,我们之间隔着语言的障碍。
虽然我的幼儿园经历感觉像一个世纪前,但我学到的教训将永远留在我的脑海中。在过去的三个夏天里,我在纽约的一家政府机构工作。新移民——就像午餐队伍中的小女孩一样——涌入我们的办公室寻求帮助。我经常不得不为说意大利语的人当翻译。当我担任重要沟通纽带的角色时,我想起了在学会英语之前拼命想要交谈的挣扎。我怀着极大的同情看着年长的意大利人试图用意大利语与不会说这种语言的人交谈。我突然非常清楚地意识到,能流利地说两种语言是多么幸运。
在纽约这个多元文化城市,像我这样的学生有幸有机会与多元化的人群一起工作。在我的英译意翻译中,我了解到了我不知道存在的社会项目。这项工作以课堂四壁之内不可能的方式扩展了我的思维。今天走在布鲁克林的街道上,我不再被这座城市的声音和气味所困惑。相反,我享受它的多样性。
题目翻译

A. 时间过得很快。

D. 它使她童年的梦想成真。
(二十一)2022年1月浙江省首考英语卷-阅读A篇
For nearly a decade now, Merebeth has been a self-employed pet transport specialist. Her pet transport job was born of the financial crisis(危机)in the late 2000s. The downturn hit the real estate(房地产)firm where she had worked for ten years as an office manager. The firm went broke and left her looking for a new job.
One day, while driving near her home, she saw a dog wandering on the road, clearly lost. She took it home, and her sister in Denver agreed to take it. This was a loving home for sure, but 1,600 miles away. It didn't take long for Merebeth to decide to drive the dog there herself. It was her first road trip to her new job.
Merebeth's pet delivery service also satisfies her wanderlust. It has taken her to every state in the US except Montana, Washington and Oregon, she says proudly. If she wants to visit a new place, she will simply find a pet with transport needs there. She travels in all weathers. She has driven through 55 mph winds in Wyoming, heavy flooding and storms in Alabama and total whiteout conditions in Kansas.
This wanderlust is inherited from her father, she says. He moved their family from Canada to California when she was one year old, because he wanted them to explore a new place together. As soon as she graduated from high school she left home to live on Catalina Island off the Californian coast, away from her parents, where she enjoyed a life of sailing and off-road biking.
It turns out that pet transporting pays quite well at about $30,000 per year before tax. She doesn't work in summer, as it would be unpleasantly hot for the animals in the car, even with air conditioning. As autumn comes, she gets restless—the same old wanderlust returning. It's a call she must heed alone, though. Merebeth says, "When I am on the road, I'm just in my own world. I've always been independent-spirited and I just feel strongly that I must help animals."
Why did Merebeth change her job?
A. She wanted to work near her home.
B. She was tired of working in the office.
C. Her sister asked her to move to Denver.
D. Her former employer was out of business.
The word "wanderlust" in paragraph 3 means a desire to?
A. make money.
B. try various jobs.
C. be close to nature.
D. travel to different places.
What can we learn about Merebeth in her new job?
A. She has chances to see rare animals.
B. She works hard throughout the year.
C. She relies on herself the whole time.
D. She earns a basic and tax-free salary.
【答案解析】21-23 DDC
主题语境:人与自我——个人职业选择与独立精神
【语篇导读】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲的是Merebeth在房地产公司倒闭后转行成为宠物运输专员,在独自驾车运送宠物的过程中满足旅行欲望、展现独立精神的故事。
第21题.D 细节理解。解析:根据第一段中"The downturn hit the real estate firm... The firm went broke and left her looking for a new job."可知,经济危机使她所在的房地产公司破产,她因此失业,不得不寻找新工作。这说明她换工作的直接原因是前雇主倒闭了。故选D。
第22题.D 词义猜测。解析:第三段首句提到宠物运输工作满足她的"wanderlust",紧接着说这份工作带她去了美国除蒙大拿等三州以外的所有地方,并且她想去新地方时就会寻找有运输需求的宠物。由此可推知,"wanderlust"指"到不同地方旅行的渴望"。故选D。
第23题.C 细节推断。解析:由最后一段"It's a call she must heed alone"和"I've always been independent-spirited"可知,她独自上路,始终依靠自己,独立精神很强。故选C。
译文
近十年来,Merebeth一直是一名自雇宠物运输专家。她的宠物运输工作源于2000年代末的金融危机。经济低迷冲击了她曾作为办公室经理工作了十年的房地产公司。公司破产了,她不得不寻找新工作。
一天,她在离家不远的地方开车时,看到一只狗在路上游荡,显然迷路了。她把它带回家,她在丹佛的姐姐同意收养它。这无疑是一个充满爱的家,但在1600英里之外。Merebeth很快就决定自己开车把狗送到那里。这是她为新工作进行的第一次公路旅行。
Merebeth的宠物运送服务也满足了她的旅行欲望。她自豪地说,这份工作带她去了美国除蒙大拿、华盛顿和俄勒冈以外的所有州。如果她想去一个新地方,她只需在那里找一只有运输需求的宠物。她风雨无阻地旅行。她曾在怀俄明州驶过每小时55英里的大风,在阿拉巴马州经历严重的洪水和风暴,在堪萨斯州遭遇完全白茫茫的天气。
她说,这种旅行欲望继承自她的父亲。在她一岁时,他把全家从加拿大搬到加利福尼亚,因为他想让他们一起探索一个新地方。高中一毕业,她就离开家,住在加利福尼亚海岸外的卡塔利娜岛,远离父母,在那里享受着帆船和越野骑行的生活。
事实证明,宠物运输收入相当不错,税前每年约3万美元。她夏天不工作,因为即使开空调,车里的动物也会热得难受。秋天来临时,她变得不安分——同样的旅行欲望又回来了。然而,这是她必须独自回应的召唤。Merebeth说:"当我在路上时,我就在自己的世界里。我一直很独立,我强烈地感到我必须帮助动物。"

主题语境:人与社会——旅游与文化
【语篇导读】本文是一篇应用文。文章主要介绍了罗马四家各具特色的经济型青年旅社,旨在为预算有限的旅行者提供住宿参考。
第21题.C。细节理解。解析:根据第一段首句"Rome can be pricey for travelers, which is why many choose to stay in a hostel"可知,罗马对旅行者来说物价高昂,这正是许多人选择住旅社的原因。因此,价格是选择旅社的旅行者最关心的问题。故选C。
第22题.B。细节理解。解析:在Hostel Alessandro Palace一段中,明确提到"If you love social hostels, this is the best hostel for you",并介绍了员工举办酒吧活动、免费酒饮、串吧、卡拉OK以及屋顶社交区域等,均指向丰富的社交功能。故选B。
第23题.C。细节理解。解析:该旅社介绍末尾提到"you need to pay 2 euros a day for Wi-Fi",即Wi-Fi需额外收费,这是其不足之处。故选C。
译文
对旅行者来说,罗马可能很昂贵,这就是为什么许多人选择住旅社。罗马的旅社提供宿舍床位,每晚约25美元,而且你通常能住在一个有安全保障且舒适的中心位置。
Yellow Hostel

Skiddaw in Winter
Cumbria, England
It was an extremely cold winter's evening and freezing fog hung in the air. I climbed to the top of a small rise and realised that the mist was little more than a few feet deep, and though it was only a short climb, I found myself completely above it and looking at a wonderfully clear view of Skiddaw with the sun setting in the west. I used classical techniques, translated from my college days spent in the darkroom into Photoshop, to achieve the black-and-white image(图像).
Timothy Smith(2014)
Macclesfield Forest
Cheshire, England
I was back in my home town of Macclesfield to take some winter images. Walking up a path through the forest towards Shutlingsloe, a local high point, I came across a small clearing and immediately noticed the dead yellow grasses set against the fresh snow. The small pine added to the interest and I placed it centrally to take the view from the foreground right through into the forest.
Who would most probably enter for Take a view?
A. Writers.
B. Photographers.
C. Painters.
D. Tourists.
What do the works by Shepherd and Smith have in common?
A. They are winter images.
B. They are in black and white.
C. They show mountainous scenes.
D. They focus on snow-covered forests.
Where can the text be found?
A. In a history book.
B. In a novel.
C. In an art magazine.
D. In a biography.

【语篇导读】本文是一篇应用文。文章主要讲的是英国年度风景摄影大赛"Take a view"以及两位摄影师迈克·谢泼德和蒂莫西·史密斯的冬季风景获奖作品。
第21题.B 细节理解。解析:根据文章开头"Take a view, the Landscape Photographer of the Year Award... competition for photographers from all corners of the UK and beyond"可知,这是一个面向摄影师的年度风景摄影比赛,因此最有可能参赛的是摄影师。故选B。
第22题.A 细节比较与判断。解析:谢泼德的作品标题为"Skiddaw in Winter",描述中提到"extremely cold winter's evening";史密斯的作品描述中明确提到"to take some winter images",且有"fresh snow",两者均为冬季拍摄的景象。因此,两幅作品的共同点是均为冬季影像。故选A。
第23题.C 推理判断。解析:全文介绍了风景摄影大赛和两位获奖者的冬季风景摄影作品,内容属于视觉艺术与摄影赏析范畴,因此最可能出现在艺术杂志中,而非历史书、小说或传记。故选C。
译文
"Take a view"年度风景摄影师奖由查理·韦特发起,他是当今最受尊敬的风景摄影师之一。每年,参赛作品的高水准表明该奖项是展示英国风景摄影最佳作品的完美平台。"Take a view"是面向英国各地乃至更远地区摄影师的一项令人向往的年度比赛。

冬季的斯基多山
英格兰坎布里亚郡
那是一个极其寒冷的冬夜,空气中弥漫着刺骨的雾。我爬到一个小高地的顶部,意识到雾只有几英尺深,虽然只是短暂的攀爬,我发现自己完全在雾之上,看着斯基多山在夕阳西下时清晰美妙的景色。我使用了经典技法,从大学时代在暗房中学到的技巧转化为Photoshop,来制作这幅黑白图像。

The Biggest Stadiums in the World
People have been pouring into stadiums since the days of ancient Greece. In around 8 A.D., the Romans built the Colosseum, which remains the world's best known stadium and continues to inform contemporary design. Rome's Colosseum was 157 feet tall and had 80 entrances, seating 50,000 people. However, that was small fry compared with the city's Circus Maximus, which accommodated around 250,000 people.
These days, safety regulations—not to mention the modern sports fan's desire for a good view and a comfortable seat—tend to keep stadium capacities(容量)slightly lower. Even soccer fans tend to have a seat each; gone are the days of thousands standing to watch the match.
For the biggest stadiums in the world, we have used data supplied by the World Atlas list so far, which ranks them by their stated permanent capacity, as well as updated information from official stadium websites.
All these stadiums are still functional, still open and still hosting the biggest events in world sport.
l Rungrado 1st of May Stadium, Pyongyang, D.P.R.Korea. Capacity: 150,000. Opened: May 1, 1989.
l Michigan Stadium, Ann Arbor, Michigan, U.S. Capacity: 107,601. Opened: October 1, 1927.
l Beaver Stadium, State College, Pennsylvania, U.S. Capacity: 106,572. Opened: September 17, 1960.
l Ohio Stadium, Columbus, Ohio, U.S. Capacity: 104,944. Opened: October 7, 1922.
l Kyle Field, College Station, Texas, U.S. Capacity: 102,512. Opened: September 24, 1927.
How many people could the Circus Maximus hold?
A. 104,944.
B. 107,601.
C. About 150,000.
D. About 250,000.
Of the following stadiums, which is the oldest?
A. Michigan Stadium.
B. Beaver Stadium.
C. Ohio Stadium.
D. Kyle Field.
What do the listed stadiums have in common?
A. They host big games.
B. They have become tourist attractions.
C. They were built by Americans.
D. They are favored by architects.

第23题.A 细节理解。解析:根据文章最后一段"All these stadiums are still functional, still open and still hosting the biggest events in world sport."可知,这些体育场的共同点是都仍在举办大型体育赛事,即host big games。故选A。
译文
世界上最大的体育场
自古希腊时代以来,人们就不断涌入体育场。大约在公元8年,罗马人建造了斗兽场,它仍然是世界上最著名的体育场,并继续影响着当代设计。罗马斗兽场高157英尺,有80个入口,可容纳5万人。然而,与这座城市的马克西姆斯竞技场相比,那就是小巫见大巫了,后者可容纳约25万人。
如今,安全法规——更不用说现代体育迷对良好视野和舒适座位的渴望——往往使体育场容量略低。即使是足球迷也倾向于每人一个座位;成千上万人站着看比赛的日子已经一去不复返了。
对于世界上最大的体育场,我们使用了迄今为止World Atlas列表提供的数据,该列表按各体育场标称的永久容量进行排名,以及来自官方体育场网站的最新信息。
所有这些体育场仍在运作、仍然开放,并且仍在举办世界体育界最大的赛事。
l 绫罗岛5月1日体育场,平壤,朝鲜。容量:15万。开放时间:1989年5月1日。
l 密歇根体育场,安娜堡,密歇根州,美国。容量:107,601。开放时间:1927年10月1日。
l 比弗体育场,州学院,宾夕法尼亚州,美国。容量:106,572。开放时间:1960年9月17日。
l 俄亥俄体育场,哥伦布,俄亥俄州,美国。容量:104,944。开放时间:1922年10月7日。
l 凯尔体育场,大学城,德克萨斯州,美国。容量:102,512。开放时间:1927年9月24日。

Leslie Nielsen's childhood was a difficult one, but he had one particular shining star in his life—his uncle, who was a well-known actor. The admiration and respect his uncle earned inspired Nielsen to make a career(职业)in acting. Even though he often felt he would be discovered to be a no-talent, he moved forward, gaining a scholarship to the Neighborhood Playhouse and making his first television appearance a few years later in 1948. However, becoming a full-time, successful actor would still be an uphill battle for another eight years until he landed a number of film roles that finally got him noticed.
But even then, what he had wasn't quite what he wanted. Nielsen always felt he should be doing comedy but his good looks and distinguished voice kept him busy in dramatic roles. It wasn't until 1980—32 years into his career—that he landed the role it would seem he was made for in Airplane! That movie led him into the second half of his career where his comedic presence alone could make a movie a financial success even when movie reviewers would not rate it highly.
Did Nielsen then feel content in his career? Yes and no. He was thrilled to be doing the comedy that he always felt he should do, but even during his last few years, he always had a sense of curiosity, wondering what new role or challenge might he just around the corner. He never stopped working, never retired.
Leslie Nielsen's devotion to acting is wonderfully inspiring. He built a hugely successful career with little more than plain old hard work and determination. He showed us that even a single desire, never given up on, can make for a remarkable life.
Why did Nielsen want to be an actor?
A. He enjoyed watching movies.
B. He was eager to earn money.
C. He wanted to be like his uncle.
D. He felt he was good at acting.
What do we know about Nielsen in the second half of his career?
A. He directed some high quality movies.
B. He avoided taking on new challenges.
C. He focused on playing dramatic roles.
D. He became a successful comedy actor.
What does Nielsen's career story tell us?
A. Art is long, life is short.
B. He who laughs last laughs longest.
C. It's never too late to learn.
D. Where there's a will there's a way.

第22题.D 细节理解。解析:根据第二段最后一句"That movie led him into the second half of his career where his comedic presence alone could make a movie a financial success..."可知,电影《空前绝后满天飞》将他带入了职业生涯的后半段,在此期间,他仅凭喜剧表演就能让一部电影在商业上取得成功,由此可判断他成了一位成功的喜剧演员。故选D。
第23题.D 推理判断。解析:本文讲述了Nielsen怀揣一个梦想,长达32年坚持不懈,历经挫折却永不放弃,最终取得巨大成功的故事。这恰好印证了"有志者事竟成"的道理。故选D。
译文
Leslie Nielsen的童年很艰难,但他生活中有一颗特别的闪亮之星——他的叔叔,一位知名演员。叔叔所赢得的钦佩和尊重激励Nielsen立志从事演艺事业。尽管他经常觉得自己会被发现毫无才华,但他还是向前迈进,获得了 Neighborhood Playhouse 的奖学金,并在几年后的1948年首次出现在电视上。然而,成为一名全职、成功的演员仍将是一场艰苦的战斗,又过了八年,直到他获得了一些电影角色,终于让他受到了关注。
但即使在那时,他所拥有的也不是他真正想要的。Nielsen一直觉得他应该演喜剧,但他的英俊外表和出众的嗓音让他忙于戏剧角色。直到1980年——从艺32年后——他才在《空前绝后满天飞》中获得了那个似乎为他量身打造的角色。那部电影将他带入了职业生涯的后半段,在此期间,他仅凭喜剧表演就能让一部电影在商业上取得成功,即使影评人不会给它高评价。
Nielsen当时对职业生涯满意吗?既满意又不满意。他很高兴能做他一直觉得应该做的喜剧,但即使在他最后几年,他也总是有一种好奇心,想知道什么样的新角色或挑战可能就在眼前。他从未停止工作,从未退休。
Leslie Nielsen对表演的奉献令人鼓舞。他凭借不过是普通的老式努力和决心,建立了极其成功的职业生涯。他向我们展示,即使只是一个愿望,只要永不放弃,也能成就非凡的人生。

(二十七)2021年1月浙江省首考英语卷-阅读A篇
More than 25 years ago, Saroo Brierley lived in rural(农村)India. One day, he played with his brother along the rail line and fell asleep. When he woke up and found himself alone, the 4-year-old decided his brother might be on the train he saw in front of him—so he got on. That train took him a thousand miles across the country to a totally strange city. He lived on the streets, and then in an orphanage(孤儿院). There, he was adopted by an Australian family and flown to Tasmania.
As he writes in his new book, A Long Way Home, Brierley couldn't help but wonder about his hometown back in India. He remembered landmarks, but since he didn't know his town's name, finding a small neighborhood in a vast country proved to be impossible.
Then he found a digital mapping program. He spent years searching for his hometown in the program's satellite pictures. In 2011, he came across something familiar. He studied it and realized he was looking at a town's central business district from a bird's-eye view. He thought, "On the right-hand side you should see the three-platform train station"—and there it was. "And on the left-hand side you should see a big fountain"—and there it was. Everything just started to match.
When he stood in front of the house where he grew up as a child, he saw a lady standing in the entrance. "There's something about me," he thought—and it took him a few seconds but he finally remembered what she used to look like.
In an interview Brierley says, "My mother looked so much shorter than I remembered. But she came forth and walked forward, and I walked forward, and my feelings and tears and the chemical in my brain, you know, it was like a nuclear fusion(核聚变). I just didn't know what to say, because I never thought seeing my mother would ever come true. And here I am, standing in front of her."
Why was Brierley separated from his family about 25 years ago?
A. He got on a train by mistake.
B. He got lost while playing in the street.
C. He was taken away by a foreigner.
D. He was adopted by an Australian family.
How did Brierley find his hometown?
A. By analyzing old pictures.
B. By travelling all around India.
C. By studying digital maps.
D. By spreading his story via his book.
What does Brierley mainly talk about in the interview?
A. His love for his mother.
B. His reunion with his mother.
C. His long way back home.
D. His memory of his hometown.
【答案解析】21-23 ACB
主题语境:人与自我——个人经历与亲情
【语篇导读】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲的是印度男孩Saroo Brierley幼年误乘火车走失,被澳大利亚家庭收养,多年后借助数字地图找到家乡并与母亲团聚的故事。
第21题.A 细节理解。解析:根据文章第一段中"he decided his brother might be on the train...—so he got on"可知,Brierley认为哥哥可能在火车上,便上了车,结果误乘火车被带到远方。因此他是因为误上火车而与家人分离。故选A。
第22题.C 细节理解。解析:根据文章第四段中"Then he found a digital mapping program. He spent years searching for his hometown in the program's satellite pictures."可知,他通过研究数字地图程序中的卫星图片找到了家乡。因此找回家乡的方式是研究数字地图。故选C。
第23题.B 段落大意。解析:最后一段为Brierley的访谈内容,他详细描述了见到母亲时双方的外貌、动作和心理感受,尤其是重逢时"像核聚变"般的情感爆发。整个访谈围绕他与母亲重新相见的场景展开,因此主要谈论的是他与母亲的重聚。故选B。
译文
25年多前,Saroo Brierley生活在印度农村。一天,他和哥哥沿着铁路线玩耍,睡着了。当他醒来发现自己独自一人时,这个4岁的孩子认定哥哥可能在他面前看到的火车上——于是他上了车。那列火车载着他穿越全国一千英里,来到了一个完全陌生的城市。他流落街头,然后进了孤儿院。在那里,他被一个澳大利亚家庭收养,飞往塔斯马尼亚。
正如他在新书《漫漫归途》中所写,Brierley忍不住想知道他在印度的家乡。他记得一些地标,但由于不知道小镇的名字,在一个幅员辽阔的国家里找到一个小街区被证明是不可能的。
然后他找到了一个数字地图程序。他花了数年时间在该程序的卫星图片中寻找他的家乡。2011年,他遇到了熟悉的东西。他仔细研究,意识到自己正从鸟瞰视角看着一个小镇的中央商务区。他想:"在右手边你应该看到一个三站台火车站"——它就在那里。"在左手边你应该看到一个大喷泉"——它就在那里。一切开始吻合。
当他站在童年长大的房子前时,他看到一位女士站在门口。"我身上有什么东西,"他想——花了几秒钟,但他终于想起了她过去的样子。
在采访中Brierley说:"我母亲看起来比我记忆中矮多了。但她走上前来,向前走,我也向前走,我的感情、眼泪和大脑中的化学物质,你知道,就像核聚变。我只是不知道该说什么,因为我从未想过见到母亲会成真。而我就在这里,站在她面前。"
