I. Grammar and vocabulary

Section A (10 分)

grammatically correct. For the blanks with a given word, fill in each blank with the proper form of

the given word; for the other blanks, use one word that best fits each blank.

The Best Music to Boost Productivity

How many times have you put on your headphones to help you concentrate on your tasks?

Various studies have tried to address the question of (1)________ music in the workplace can be

helpful or not. The short answer seems to be yes, but it depends on the job and the music.

In one study, machine operators at a clothes manufacturer became (2)________ (productive)

when they listened to relaxing music; the researchers therefore suggested trying music with a faster

pace instead. However, in another study (3)________ (conduct) among surgeons who operated on

patients while listening to classical music, it showed that they were both faster and more accurate in

performance. In this case, the researchers advised against high pace or loud music (4)________ it

could be distracting.

According to some scientists, no matter what task you’re engaged in, lyrics in music

(5)________ negatively impact your attention. However, if (6)________ (listen) to lyric-less or

classical tunes annoys you, you’re probably not going to be very productive, so it ultimately depends

on your personal preference.

There might be a link between ‘emotional use’ of music at work and performance, too.

Essentially, if your mood improves, so does your work. To some extent, then, you may be best off

playing music (7)________ makes you happy. Interestingly, though, one 2023 study, which surveyed

244 people who listened to music at work, revealed no benefit when music (8)________ (use) for

cognitive thinking or just played in the background.

But if you’re just here for the best tracks (9)________ (boost) your productivity, we’ve got

some recommendations for you. The top three songs most often included in work-related Spotify

lists (10)________ (be): ‘Drops of Jupiter’ (Train), ‘Dreams’ (Fleetwood Mac) and ‘Don’t Stop

Believin’ (Journey). Integrate these songs into your workday and experience the boost in productivity

they can provide.

Section B (10 分)

Directions: Fill in each blank with a proper word chosen from the box. Each word can be used only

once. Note that there is one word more than you need.

Skyquake

If you’ve ever heard a loud, distant booming noise with no obvious explanation like a

thunderstorm or a car backfiring, then you might have experienced a skyquake. Skyquakes have been

reported around the world and locals have ___11___ names for them in different regions. Near

Seneca Lake in New York State, they’re known as ‘Seneca guns’; in Belgium they’re called

‘mistpoeffers’; and the Japanese refer to them as ‘uminari’, which ___12___ means ‘cries from the

sea.’

Some scientists have suggested that a type of meteor( 流星 )could be the cause. These space

rocks explode when they ___13___ Earth’s atmosphere. If this occurred above thick cloud, the sound

could ___14___ across a wide area. However, there is no ___15___ evidence reaching the ground.

A(n) ___16___ explanation is the gas coming out of the bottom of the lake. Several hot spots

for skyquake activity are close to large, deep lakes, such as Seneca. But skyquakes have also been

reported away from such water bodies.

Researchers at the University of North Carolina compared local news reports with information

from ___17___ sensors and earthquake detectors. They were unable to identify any earthquake

activity that coincided with the strange noises, ___18___ ruling out ground shaking as the cause of it.

They concluded that this phenomenon is ___19___ to the atmosphere. Possible reasons could include

meteors exploding in the sky or the sound of big waves getting louder because of special weather

conditions near the ocean. Over the years, many of these ___20___ mystery noises have turned out

to be caused by military planes flying faster than the speed of sound.

Given the diversity of locations and explanations, it’s possible that skyquakes in different parts

of the world have different causes. But for now, their true cause remains mysterious.

II. Reading Comprehension (45 分)

Section A (15 分)

Directions: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C

and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.

The rigid corridors of Welton Academy carried the weight of tradition and conformity (循规蹈

矩). John Keating, an English teacher with a(n) ___21___ of mystery and passion, stepped into the

academy like a breath of freshness in a dull room. His very presence was a(n) ___22___ to the long-

established norms of the school.

A. enter B. echo C. physical D. linked E. supposed F. initial

G. literally H. diverse I. weather J. alternative K. effectively

He was not one to simply stand at the front of the classroom and lectured about Shakespeare’s

poetry or the rules of grammar. ___23___, he had a unique way of making the words come alive. In

his first class, he walked into the room, a twinkle in his eye, and led the boys out into the hallway.

Pointing at the old, faded pictures of former students, he said, “Carpe diem, boys. Seize the day.

Make your lives ___24___. These men were once just like you, with dreams and potential. Don’t let

this place bury your ambitions.”

His special haven, the “Whispers of the Bard,” was a magical place hidden away from the

___25___ eyes of the school authorities. Here, under the open sky, Keating would gather the students

around him. He would recite poetry with such enthusiasm that the words seemed to ___26___in the

air. “Poetry,” he told them, “is not just about rhymes and meters. It’s the language of the ___27___.

It’s the way we express the deepest desires and the wildest dreams that we hold ___28___us.”

He encouraged each student to find their own voice between the lines of the great poets. To Neil

Perry, who had a hidden passion for the ___29___ burning like a small fire in his heart, Keating was

like a guiding star. He saw the potential in Neil’s eyes and said, “Neil, the stage is waiting for you.

Don’t let anyone even your father ___30___ your light. Your dreams are precious, and you have the

talent to make them come true.” He helped Neil practice his lines, showing him how to ___31___ his

emotions through every word. Under Keating’s guidance in every session, Neil grew more confident,

believing that he could even ___32___ what his father expected of him.

For Todd Anderson, who was shy and often ___33___ by his brother seemingly excellent at

everything, Keating noticed his talent for seeing the deeper meaning in literature. “Todd,” he said,

“your mind is a treasure chest. Open it and share your thoughts with the world. Don’t be afraid to

___34___. Your interpretations are as valuable as any other’s.” With Keating’s encouraging words,

Todd started to come out of his ___35___, finding the courage to speak up and express himself.

Keating’s encouragement was like a gentle wind that blew through the lives of these students,

fanning the flames of their dreams and giving them the strength to pursue what they truly loved.
