A PhD student in Michigan defended her paper while wearing a skirt made of rejection letters
she received while studying. 29-year-old Caitlin Kirby printed out 17 of her rejection letters — from
scholarships, academic journals, and conferences — then folded each one into a fan. She connected
them in rows, and by the end she designed the item into a skirt and wore it.
She said that the idea behind her unique clothing item came out of a desire to normalize
rejection and take pride in overcoming it. "The whole process of revisiting those old letters and
making that skirt sort of reminded me that you have to apply to a lot of things to succeed," she said.
"A natural part of the process is to get rejected along the way."
Caitlin's adviser, Julie Libarkin, a professor of earth and environmental science at Michigan
State University, also encourages the acceptance of failure in her students. Libarkin believes it's
important for students to get into habit of applying for things, and to get used to the feeling of
rejection, so she encourages them to chase after any opportunity that comes their way. If a student
doesn't get the grant or the spot in the academic journal, that's okay. They'll still have learned
something in the process.
As for Caitlin? Her rejections over the years have led to great things: Since her doctorate, she's
won a scholarship to do further research on urban agriculture in Germany.
Currently, she's a post-doctoral researcher at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln. As for what
the future holds? "I'm prepared to receive a few more rejection letters along the way," she joked
heartily, "Maybe I'll make a longer skirt."
4. What can we learn about Caitlin Kirby's rejection letters?
A. She received 17 rejections in total.
B. 29 of her rejections were from journals.
C. The rejections were connected into a fan.
D. She made some rejection letters into a skirt.
5. What is Julie Libarkin's attitude towards Caitlin's action?
A. Favorable. B. Ambiguous.
C. Skeptical. D. Opposed.
6. Which of the following words can best describe Catlin?
A. Creative and considerate. B. Caring and determined.
C. Optimistic and humorous. D. Generous and intelligent.
7. Which of the following may Caitlin agree with?
A. Hard work pays off.
B. Education is the entrance to success.
C. Self-respect earns more respect.
D. One needs to normalize failures.
【答案】4. D 5. A 6. C 7. D
【解析】
【分析】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了 29 岁的 Julie Libarkin 将收到的拒绝信做成了一
件裙子,希望告诉人们,失败是很正常的。

A team from Northwestern University has developed a soft, skin-interfaced sensor that can
analyze the molecular (分子的) composition of sweat for things like cortisol, blood sugar, and
vitamin C, sending the data to the wearer's smartphone. This data, the researchers hope, will allow
people to better control their stress levels throughout the day.
Cortisol, also called the stress hormone, can be measured in a person's sweat. Released from the
adrenal glands (肾上腺) under periods of physical and mental stress, it can be a powerful
performance enhancer—increasing energy production and glucose (葡萄糖) availability for the
muscles during a "fight or flight" situation, for instance being attacked by a lion. However, cortisol
can also be released because of modern stressors such as money problems, issues at work, and other
day-to-day worries that if built up over time, create the chronic anxiety and can lead to an increased
risk for diabetes, depression, high blood pressure and obesity.
When someone wears the chip sweats, the liquid runs through small channels into a series of
chemical test sensors that look for different biological signals which could suggest a rise in cortisol.
Previous attempts in years past at creating devices like this were limited by the need to take
sweat samples to laboratories for analysis, removing any ability for the individual to act on the data
in a way that might prevent buildup of stressful feelings, or even an anxiety attack.
Such a device could be paramount in helping people relieve depressive or stressful feelings (not
least because exercising hard enough to cause sweating helps with anxiety on its own).
Furthermore, the percent of the population of American adults with regular feelings of worry,
nervousness, or anxiety is around 11.2%, while there are nearly 60 million doctors' visits where
mental or behavioral health is the chief concern. Putting power into patients' hands—in the form of a
detailed diagnosis of cortisol levels, could help significantly to lower those numbers.
8. What's the function of the newly developed sensor?
A. To examine the component of sweat.
B. To show when one lacks vitamin.
C. To connect wearable devices to smartphones.
D. To control people's stress levels the whole day.
9. What is Paragraph 2 mainly about?
A. What may create the profile of chronic anxiety.
B. What may cause the release of the stress hormone.
C. How cortisol can enhance one's energy production.
D. How cortisol can be measured in a person's sweat.
10. Which of the following can replace the underlined word?
A. Significant. B. Useless.
C. Accessible. D. Weak.
11. Where is this text most likely from?
A. A product review. B. A guidebook.
C. A magazine. D. A science fiction.
【答案】8. A 9. B 10. A 11. C
【解析】

There is an "environmental silver lining" as a result of the coronavirus (冠状病毒) —carbon
emissions have been reduced by more than 4%, many wildlife markets around the world have been
shuttered and air quality in some places has slightly improved, Dave Ford, founder of the
environmental literacy organization SoulBuffalo, says.
But thanks to an increase in pandemic-related, non-recyclable materials such as take-out plastic
containers and masks, 30% more waste has entered our oceans, he notes. "There's 129 billion
facemasks being made every month—enough that you could cover the entire country of Switzerland
with facemasks at the end of this year if trends continue," he says. "And a lot of these masks are
ending up in the water." The masks look like jellyfish—in other words, food—to turtles and other
wildlife creatures, thus, attractive to those animals and then endangering them, he says.
Very little of the plastic we use is actually recyclable. Sharon Lerner of The Intercept told Here
& Now last year that "the vast majority of plastic that has ever been produced—79%—has actually
ended up in landfills or burned, but not refashioned into new products." Even if the plastics we have
can be reused, Ford says recycling programs across the globe are facing drastic budget cuts.
"We're starting to see recycling programs shuttered, waste picking communities operating at
50% or actually shutting down. They are the last line of defense between plastic and the
environment," he says.
Last year, Unilever planned to cut its use of non-recycled plastics in half by 2025. In an
interview with Here & Now, Richard Slater, Unilever's chief research and development officer, drew
on the industry argument that plastic packaging is lighter, which means less shipping and therefore
fewer dangerous emissions that cause climate change.
Yes, plastics are lightweight and can cut down on fuel spending. But on the other hand, plastic
waste is being found in every facet of life—even in the deepest ocean.
12. What does "environmental silver lining" in Papagraph 1 refer to?
A. An environmental organization.
B. The closure of some wildlife markets.
C. The decrease of carbon dioxide emissions.
D. Benefits on environment from the coronavirus.
13. Why are facemasks appealing to some sea creatures?
A. They resemble the sea creatures' food.
B. They contain certain unique chemicals.
C. Many sea creatures like to chase plastic by nature.
D. There is a continuous shortage of food in the ocean.
14. What can we learn about the plastic waste?
A. Most of it is recycled into new products.
B. The majority of it is buried or burned.
C. 129 billion facemasks end up in the ocean.
D. There is enough budget for plastic recycling.
15. Which of the following might be the best title for the text?
A. Plastic can cut down fuel spending
B. Recycling programs are shutting down
C. The coronavirus has caused more ocean plastic
D. Solutions to ocean plastic pollution are being explored
【答案】12. D 13. A 14. B 15. C
【解析】
【分析】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了新冠病毒的出现使得塑料产品使用增多,导致海洋
污染增加。
【12 题详解】
词句猜测题。根据文章第一段“carbon emissions have been reduced by more than 4%, many
wildlife markets around the world have been shuttered and air quality in some places has slightly
improved(碳排放量减少了 4%以上,世界各地许多野生动物市场被关闭,一些地方的空气质量
略有改善。)”可知,新冠病毒的出现给“环境带来了一线希望”,所以 environmental silver
lining 指的是“新冠病毒对环境的好处。”故选 D。
【13 题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第二段“The masks look like jellyfish—in other words, food—to turtles and
other wildlife creatures, thus, attractive to those animals and then endangering them, he says. (很多
这样的口罩最后都掉进水里了。”他说,这种口罩看起来像水母——换句话说,是乌龟和其
他野生动物的食物——因此,吸引了这些动物,然后又危及了它们。)”可知,有些海洋生物
喜欢口罩,是因为它们很像海洋生物的食物。故选 A。
【14 题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第三段“Sharon Lerner of The Intercept told Here & Now last year that "the
vast majority of plastic that has ever been produced—79%—has actually ended up in landfills or
burned, but not refashioned into new products." (去年,Intercept 网站的 Sharon Lerner 在接受《Here
& Now》采访时表示:“绝大多数已经生产出来的塑料——79%——最终都被扔进了垃圾填埋
场或被焚烧,但没有被改造成新产品。”)”可知,大部分塑料废品都被埋了或者烧掉了。故
选 B。
【15 题详解】
主旨大意题。根据文章最后一段“But on the other hand, plastic waste is being found in every facet
of life—even in the deepest ocean. (但另一方面,塑料垃圾正在生活的各个方面被发现,甚至在
最深的海洋。)”及全文内容可知,文章介绍了新冠病毒的出现使得塑料产品使用增多,导致
海洋污染增加。所以“The coronavirus has caused more ocean plastic(冠状病毒造成了海洋更多
的塑料)”作为文章标题最为合适。故选 C。

考查介词。句意:发表在《实验心理学杂志》上的一项新研究发现,包括语音在内的交流互
动,如电话或视频聊天,比打字,如短信或电子邮件,能产生更强的社会联系。根据上文 stronger,
结合句意表示“比……更”应用 than。故填 than。

experiments,应用形容词 various,作定语。故填 various。
【38 题详解】
考查动词时态语态。句意:在一项实验中,200 人被要求预测通过电子邮件或电话与老朋友重
新联系是什么感觉,然后随机分配这些人选择其中一种方式。分析可知,此处为主句谓语动

考查冠词。句意:该研究的合著者之一、麦库姆斯商学院市场营销学助理教授 Amit Kumar 在
一份声明中表示:“与电子邮件相比,人们在电话中与老朋友的联系明显更紧密,而且他们

professor 为可数名词,应用不定冠词,且 assistant 是发音以元音音素开头的单词,应用 an。
故填 an。
【44 题详解】
考查名词的数。句意:他们发现,两种形式的语音交流——无论是视频交流还是音频交流——
都比通过文字交流让陌生人感觉更亲密。分析可知,此处应用名词作宾语从句的主语,form
为可数名词,根据上文 both 可知应用复数。故填 forms。
【45 题详解】
考查时态。句意:他们发现,两种形式的语音交流——无论是视频交流还是音频交流——都

第二节 读后续写
47. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
I couldn't even sort through the first box of our dog Bama's toys without bursting into tears. My
husband, Alan, found me sitting on the floor, holding our dog's favorite toy. He gently pulled me to
my feet. "It's okay, Lisa," he said. "I'll put these away. Why don't you go outside and get some air?"
I nodded.
It had been a few months since our beloved Bama had passed away. Alan and I didn't have
children. Our boxer (拳师犬) was our baby. After Bama's death, we couldn't bring ourselves to go
through his toys to decide what to keep. I told myself I'd do it when I was ready. Apparently, I still
wasn't.
Now I sat on my front porch (门廊) and sobbed. Friends and family had suggested we get
another dog, but Alan and I dismissed the idea. We couldn't go through that kind of heartbreak again.
I gazed out over the yard. Across the street was a dog. A boxer. Was he real or just my wishful
imagination? I blinked. The boxer was still there. We locked eyes. He came across the street, straight
toward me. Hesitantly, I offered my hand. He sniffed it eagerly then he licked (舔) me. I let out a
surprised laugh. He pushed his head into my lap to be petted.
This dog was younger than Bama, smaller. He was well-fed and well-dressed. He wore a collar
but had no ID. I knew he must belong to someone in the neighborhood, but I'd never seen another
boxer around. I would have remembered if I had.
"Where did you come from?" I asked the dog, scratching him behind the ears.
He just sat there at ease. He didn't seem lost. Just as if he were dropping by for a visit.
"Alan!" I called. "You have to come to see this!"
Alan joined me, and we sat together in surprise for a moment. Then the boxer got up and slowly
ran off.
注意:
1. 所续写短文的词数应为 150 左右;
2. 续写部分分为两段,每段的开头语已为你写好。
Paragraph 1
The next day, there was a strange scratching at the door.

Paragraph 2
A week later, a young man I'd never seen before came in to visit.
________________________________________________________________________________
________________________________________________________________________________
____________________________________________________________________________
【 答 案 】 The next day, there was a strange scratching at the door. I opened it and found my
unexpected guest—the mystery boxer, who seemed to still remember me. He came over lightly and
licked my hand, as if trying to erase my painful memories. Seeing him follow me from room to room,
I gradually felt the ache in my heart lessen. I suddenly realized that I could pass Bama's favorite toys
to my guest. So each day I would stand at the front door, waiting for the happy moment when my
guest came and played with the toys.
A week later, a young man I'd never seen before came in to visit. The man said his family had
just moved to the neighborhood. He asked me if I happened to see a dog, a boxer recently. I said
"Yes" and told him actually "my guest" had been paying me regular visits. He looked embarrassed
and then apologized for the trouble his cutie caused for me. I told him there is no need to apologize
and actually he was a big help in working through my grief. It has been three years since that day.
Now Bama's toys don't just sit in the room, gathering dust.
【解析】
【分析】作者的拳师犬去世了,作者非常伤心。一天,作者看到街对面有一条拳师犬。这条
拳师犬看到作者后,来到了作者面前。作者和它进行沟通交流,给她带来了慰藉,走出了失
去爱狗的伤痛。最后,狗离开了。
【详解】1.段落续写:
①由第一段首句内容“第二天,门上有奇怪的挠门声”可知,挠门声应该是上文最后部分中
提到的拳师犬发出来的。拳师犬来到作者家。该段应该写作者和这只拳师犬的互动。
②由第二段首句内容“一周后,一个我从未见过的年轻人前来拜访”可知,第二段应该叙述
年轻人来拜访的情景和目的。再结合上文所述,应该可以推知年轻人是拳师犬的主人。
2.续写线索:挠门声——来访——互动——建立感情——寻找——释怀
3.词汇激活
行为类
①拜访:visit/pay a visit
②互动:interact/communicate/respond
情绪类
①缓解:relieved/relaxed
