Located on the ground floor of a residential building in the quiet neighbourhood of Yishun is Just Ants, titled as Singapore’s first physical ant shop, run by 41-year-old John Ye. It is a tiny store, about the size of two bathrooms, and is easy to miss. Ant enthusiasts, however, know exactly where to find it, and frequent one of the few places in the country that can cater to their unconventional hobby.
It displays tanks of various sizes with about 30 species of ants, and sells carpenter ants for SG$15($11)to SG$75($55). A full colony of ants in a tank can cost up to SG$200($147). Inside, the store’s shelves are lined with necessities for ant-keeping.“Discover their hidden world,”a framed quote sits on one of the store’s shelves, inviting customers in.
To customers, the store is a“one-stop-shop for all your ant-keeping needs”but for Ye, it’s a hobby-turned-business. His fascination(癡迷)with ants started with an ant colony he got from his brother in law in 2017.“Tiny as they are, they have an immense character, because of which they’re hardworking and never give up,”Ye said,“Many think ants are nothing but disgusting pests but I wish people could see how admirable they are. They have a strategy for everything from forming into a ball shape to cross rivers to uniting as a colony.”
While most of his friends thought he was muddleheaded for leaving a stable job for something that could not be regarded as rice bowl, Ye began collecting his own ants and starting more colonies in awe. Ye goes through a painstaking process to acquire the ants, hunting down ants in neighborhoods, feeding the ants every two to three days.
He kept the store open despite the effects of the pandemic(大流行病)and business started to pick up in August with a customer base gradually building, enough to cover the store’s expenses.“The most important objective is to change the mindsets of people,”he said.
24. What do we know about Just Ants?

B. It’s Singapore’s first ant shop.
C. It’s small but very tractive.
D. It’s popular with ant lovers.

D. A neighbour’s shop.
26. What’s the meaning of the underlined word“muddleheaded”in paragraph 4?
A. Crazy B. Warm-hearted
C. Clumsy. D. Ambitious.
27. Which of the following can best describe the running of Just Ants?

While losing their appeal among young consumers engaged in other options of recreation like room escape games, who said KTV no longer holds the attraction that it used to for them, karaoke in China is becoming more popular with middle-aged and elderly people, Worker’s Daily reported.
The decline of KTV is partly on account of the rise of new KTV services, including sing-along apps on smartphones, which allow people to sing anytime anywhere, and mini KTV bars, which have a sound-proofed private space of less than two square meters and can be found in many shopping malls.
While the passion(熱情)among the young for karaoke is decreasing, more middle-aged and elderly people are now rushing to KTV clubs. According to statistics jointly released by Koubei, Alibaba’s platform for local life services, and Elime, a takeaway-ordering platform, in 2019, the number of consumers aged above 50 who showed great love for karaoke in the afternoon was 20 percent higher than that of young consumers.
This may be down to the fact that the older folks also love singing, and carry out most of their recreational activities during the day, according to Mr. Zhao, an operation officer of a KTV club in Huilongguan, Changping district in Beijing.
63-year-old Zhang Baogang said that it cost him just over 100 yuan(about $15.5)to sing and chat with friends in a karaoke room for the whole afternoon, which he enjoyed much more than spending time in a park. A woman explained that she went to karaoke clubs to make new friends and renew her friendship with her old friends, and didn’t care much about whether she could sing well or not.
To attract more middle-aged and elderly consumers, some KTV parlors have added more songs favoured by middle-aged and senior people to their collections, and offered discounts and sales promotions.
28. What makes young people like KTV less than before?
A. They have more choices.
B. They don’t like singing.
C. They prefer playing games.
D. They’ve no time for recreation.
29. What does the underlined word“that”in paragraph 3 refers to?
A. The number. B. The passion.
C. The platform. D. The services.
30. What does Paragraph 5 mainly tell us?
A. The prices for karaoke rooms.
B. The environment of the KTV.
C. The advantages of joining the club.
D. The reason why the old like KTV.
31. What’s the author’s purpose in writing the text?
A. To introduce the industry of KTV.
B. To describe a social phenomenon.
C. To show the elderly’s living problems.
D. To discuss the hobbies of the elderly.
D
Some behaviors, like sitting, make up the vast majority of our waking day. Contrary to the common philosophy that it is a problem, given that too much sitting time has been linked to greater risk of diabetes(糖尿病), heart disease, death rate and even some cancers, for many people, their own judgments and feelings about their quality of life, known as subjective well-being, may be more important and relevant for informing their health decisions and behaviors than potentially developing chronic(慢性的)diseases.
Subjective well-being refers to an individual’s(個人的)own evaluation of their quality of life. It includes concepts like self-acceptance and life satisfaction. Interestingly, these evaluations can conflict with physical health outcomes. For example, a person could have diabetes but still report good subjective well-being, while someone with no physical health conditions may report poor subjective well-being. That’s why evaluating subjective well-being is vital for painting a whole picture of health.
Relatively little research has examined the relationships between sitting behavior and subjective well-being. Exploring these relationships is important, as different contexts of sitting --such as socializing and screen time-- may produce different feelings or judgments of subjective well-being, unlike relationships between physical health and sitting behavior, which tend to be more consistent.
For example, screen time was consistently and negatively associated with subjective well-being. However, categories like socializing, playing an instrument and reading actually showed positive associations with subjective well-being. These results differ from the traditional health-related sitting behaviour research, in which all sitting behaviour is viewed as harmful to health.
Our review suggests that some types of sitting behaviour may be beneficial to quality of life. Rather, not all sitting is the same in terms of subjective well-being. So when people work towards reducing their sitting time, they should consider not just how much to reduce, but what kind to reduce.
32. What do people usually think of sitting too long?
A. It’s deadly.____B. It’s relaxing.
C. It’s harmful.____D. It’s beneficial.
33. How do we judge whether a person is healthy or not?
A. From mental and physical health.
B. From someone’s self-evaluation.
C. From someone’s self-acceptance.
D. From the physical health outcomes.
34. What’s the relationship between sitting behavior and subjective well-being?
A. Their relationship is always consistent.
B. They always conflict with each other.
C. They have nothing to do with each other.
D. Types of sitting influence subjective well-being.
35. What is the main idea of the text?
A. Subjective well-being matters in people’s life.
B. All sitting behaviors are not harmful to health.
C. Too much sitting develops chronic diseases.____
D. Subjective well-being disagrees with physical health.____

Rafael Nadal is a Spanish professional tennis player who has won 20 Grand Slam singles titles and the 2008 Olympic gold medal in singles.

From his point of view, Rafael Nadal is undefeated.
And then there was his opponent.“Weird(古怪的)”was the first thought that came in Ben’s mind when he saw him. With waist-length hair, tongue piercing, tattoos(纹身), what a strange appearance !
As the match began, there were loud cheers for Nadal from the audience, including from Ben. But as the game went on, it seemed that Nadal was made to run on every rally(回合)by this “weirdo”. Some audience covered their mouth to hide their shock, others’ mouths dropped open in surprise. How could he play like this?
By the second set, it had become obvious that Dustin Brown(by that time everyone knew his name)was beating Nadal effortlessly. So there were louder cheers for Brown. Even Ben had started cheering for the“weird”now.
Ben’s uncle was visiting Ben’s family that evening. As he saw all this from the TV screen, he said,“Look at all these envious people. They are so happy that an accomplished person is getting beaten.”
On hearing this, sadness struck Ben. He started feeling guilty that as he was enjoying seeing a great player going down. Even after Brown won the match finally, Ben was low in spirit.

(B)人与自然——讲述了新加坡的John Ye 辞职开店卖蚂蚁的故事。____
24. D 细节理解题。由第一最后一句可知,Just Ants是新加坡的第一家实体的蚂蚁店,店面很小,容易错过。但是蚂蚁爱好者可以找到、并且经常光顾,由此推断“它很受蚂蚁爱好者的欢迎”,故选D项。
25. B 细节理解题。由第二段中“Discover their hidden world”以及第三段的倒数第三行“..but I wish people could see how admirable they are. ”故选B项。
26. A 詞义猜测题。由“While most of his friends thought he was muddleheaded for leaving a stable job for something that could not be regarded as rice bowl...”可知他的朋友们认为他因为一个不能称之为饭碗的事情,而离开一份稳定的工作,一定是疯了。crazy 疯狂的;warm-hearted热心的;clumsy笨拙的;ambitious野心勃勃的,故选A项。
27. B 推理判断题。由第四段中的“Ye goes through a painstaking process to acquire the ants...”可知过程是困难的,又由第五段中的 “...business started to pick up in August with a customer base gradually building”可知这个店是有前景的,故选B项。
(C篇)人与社会--本文讲述karaoke 在中国的中年人和老年人中间越来越流行。
28. A 细节理解题。由第一二段可知,年轻人不再喜欢KTV的原因是因为他们有了新的娱乐方式,像密室逃脱,手机app等,故选A项。
29. A 词义猜测题。由第三段最后一句可知,在2019年,50岁以上的对karaoke很热爱的消费者的人数比年轻消费者人数多20%,即that指代“数目(the number)”,故项A项。
30. D 细节理解题。本段讲, KTV价格便宜、比在公园消磨时间更好、可以发展旧朋友友谊,也可以交新朋友,不在乎是否唱得好,这些归结起来,就是老年人喜欢KTV的原因,故选D项。

34. D 细节理解题。由第三段最后一句话Exploring these relationships is important, as different contexts of sitting--such as socializing and screen time-may produce different feelings or judgments of subjective well-being...可知,不同的坐产生出不同的主观感受和判断,不像生理健康和久坐的一致关系,故选D项。

第二节
本文是一篇人与自我的说明文—怎么应对总是将你和别人比较的父母?
36. G 前文提到,从出生开始,我们就承载着希望和机会,但并非每个人都有着同样的天份。G选项“只有充分利用自己天赋的人才能抓住顶峰。”与此衔接。该项中的gifted与前句中的gifted是原词复现;peak又与空后句中的peak是原词复现。
37. A 空格前說,“当你的父母对你大吼大叫的时候,你是多么希望能向他们解释这一切。我们都知道,这些话只会变成激烈的争论,最终破坏你的情绪。”而空后三段是处理这种情况的方法或建议,显然,是选一个能承上启下的句子,只有A项“因此,为什么不学会处理它呢?”适合。
38. E 空前句,“事实上,我想说的是,你可以扭转局面,准备好证明你很有能力。”如何证明有能力?选项E,“把你的时间和精力投入到你热爱的东西上并且尽你最大的努力。”与此相吻合,且与空后句衔接。
39. F 空格前句,“社会时刻准备着把他们的标准和期望强加给你。”与“社会”相对的应是“个体”,故选E项,“但是作为个体,是你自己的期望值和选择才能起作用。”
40. D 空格前句,即本段主题句“当父母(把你同别人)比较的时,要停止反驳。” 读到此,不禁要问,不反驳,应如何做呢?由此可知,选择与反驳相反意义的选项,浏览各选项,只有C项“相反,要接受你的邻居在某些方面可能优于你的事实”与此吻合。
第三部分 语言运用

46. A 根据前文的kind和few可以知道,给“我”挑的是少的、简单的(simple)内容。

第二节 参考范文
That evening, when Ben’s dad went back,he noticed something wrong with Ben.Tom didn’t greet him excitedly and shared what he watched as he usually did. Instead, he lay on the sofa, unwilling to make any comments on the game. Feeling puzzled, Dad approached Ben, patted him on the back softly and gently asked“What happened, my little one?”Rising to his feet, Ben explained what happened after hesitating for a while.“ It was not until then that I realized I shouldn’t cheer for the failure. I didn’t really understand the spirit of sports.”Ben replied. In low spirits, Ben headed for his bedroom.
Ben entered his bedroom, dragging his legs. As Ben slipped into his bed, ready to squeeze himself into the blanket, Dad held him into his arms tightly, whispering in his ears:“My dear, don’t blame yourself or other audience any more. You were not cheering because a great man was falling.”With a confused expression, Ben raised his head as his father continued:“You cheered because that‘weirdo’showed everyone that even the best can be beaten if you try hard, no matter how you look. Brown gave you hope!”It suddenly occurred to Ben that that was the real spirit of sports which always gave people hope and strength.
