Day 1 1-4 AABD
Day 2 1-3 AAD
Day 3 1-4 DBAC
解析：
Day 1 1-4 AABD
1. A。从文中第二段“is to make it a long-term commitment”可知，可持续生活是一种长期承诺，因此可推测on a whim的含义与a long-term commitment是相反的，故答案为A。
2. A。从文中第三段“Buying fruit regardless of how they look reduces food waste”可知选A。
3. B。从文中倒数第三段“Visitors can witness how the PHA straws degrade into a thin layer in just one month”可知答案为B。
4. D。从文中最后一段“now uses her cup everytime she buys a co ffee”可知答案为D。
Day 2 1-3 AAD
1. A。从文中第四段“But taking a low-Earth orbit spacecraft with so much mass to such a high place ...”可推知，国际空间站目前是处于近地的轨道上。
2. A。从文中第四段“But taking a low-Earth orbit spacecraft with so much mass to such a high place would be extremely costly. And even if the station were to be abandoned there, once it fell apart, great chances are its debris (碎片) would crash into other satellites, creating a ripple effect (连锁反应) of space debris”可知，理论上，NASA可以将国际空间站送入“墓地轨道”，但由于将质量如此巨大的低地球轨道航天器送入如此高的轨道将是非常昂贵的。而且，即使将空间站遗弃在那里，一旦它分崩离析，其碎片极有可能撞击其他卫星，引发太空碎片的连锁反应，故答案为A。
3. D。从文章倒数第二段“the safest way to retire the ISS is to guide its descent into the southern Pacific Ocean.”可知，最安全的退役方式是引导国际空间站降落到南太平洋，故答案为D。
Day 3 1-4 DBAC

halls”、“swinging my feet”、“shooting the breeze”可知，作者这一天过得是非常放松的，故答案为D。
2. B。从文中第3段作者对“峰终定律”的解释及“when it comes to human memory, not all moments are created equal”、“our remembered experiences are disproportionately influenced by peaks and endings”、“our judgment of a past experience is largely based on its most extreme point and its endpoint.”可知，我们对过去的经历和记忆的感受大部分取决于最高点时和结束时的记忆，即这两个时候的记忆最为深刻，故答案为B。
3. A。从文中第4段“I took advantage of the peak-end rule years ago ...”及随后作者介绍的她和孩子在一起的事情可知，本段讲述了作者是如何将“峰终定律”运用到自己生活中的，故答案为A。
4. C。从文中最后1段作者举例的体育教练Pete Carroll说的话可知，作者提到他是为了鼓励读者精心安排生活中的各种结束时刻，“Finish strong”，以留下更深刻的美好记忆，故答案为C。

Text 1
M: I’ve lost my glasses; I can’t see clearly. Can you help me find my earphone?
W: Sure, here it is. It was next to your cup on the table.
Text 2
W: We don’t need to work overtime this weekend, and I want to do some exercise in the gym. Do you want to join?
M: I used to be a gym rat, but now I like jogging in nature. Running is not only a form of exercise but also a lifestyle.
Text 3
M: I’m really stressed. My boss wants a lot from me, and I’ve got two projects I haven’t finished yet, and they’re due soon.
W: That’s tough. Is there anything I can do?
M: I don’t think anyone else can assist. I just need someone to chat with to ease my mind.
Text 4
W: Eric, the bathroom light bulb burned out.
M: Really? Luckily, we have a spare one. Let me tell you how to replace it. It’s very simple.
W: It’s not urgent. Let’s wait till you get home to do it.
Text 5
W: Good afternoon, sir. What can I do for you?
M: I want to have my shirt washed. Should I leave it outside my room?
W: No, please leave it inside. Our room attendant will collect it. There is a laundry bag in your room’s closet. You can put your shirt in it.
Text 6
W: How do you like your new job, Dylan?
M: I don’t like it. Twenty of us work in one room. So it’s very noisy and there’s no privacy. We don’t even have our own desks.
W: You’ve got to be kidding.
M: No, I only have a very small place for my computer and telephone. I’d love to quit, but the job offers a high salary. And I really need the money.
W: Have you thought about looking for another job with more decent conditions?
M: I have. I can’t imagine working here much longer.
Text 7
M: Tomorrow is my mom’s birthday, but I haven’t bought her anything. I’m such a bad son.
W: Take it easy. Let’s go to the mall to window-shop a little and see if there is anything she might like.
M: That’s just it. I don’t know what to get her. Last year, I got her a ring that was two sizes too big. I’m not good at getting presents for people.
W: That’s where you’re making a big mistake. You can’t just guess people’s likes or sizes, especially with clothes or jewelry. On top of that, you should be thoughtful with your gift, and get her something that shows how much you love her.
M: Yeah, you’re right. When it comes down to it, I have bad taste.
W: Your mom is trying to learn Spanish, right? Why don’t you get her a membership card for that great app called Spanishpod, where she can read Spanish books and watch Spanish TV series?
M: Oh, that’s a great idea.
Text 8
W: I’m going on a long road trip. I want to make sure my car is in good condition.
M: Good idea. When was the last time you had a tune-up?
W: I think it was six months ago.
M: We usually recommend car maintenance every five thousand kilometers or every three months.
W: Why is it necessary to tune up so often? Isn’t it a business trick?
M: We change the motor oil and oil filter. If you don’t, your car will wear out faster. We also check your spark plugs and brakes.
W: I see. It doesn’t seem like a waste of time and money then.
Text 9
W: Hey John, can I talk to you for a minute?
M: Sure, what’s up?
W: I wanted to let you know about a book club I joined a couple of months ago. I know you do a lot of reading, so I thought you might want to come with me next month.
M: Oh, that sounds like fun. When does the group meet?
W: Usually, it is the last Saturday of the month at 9:30 in the evening. Is that too late for you?
M: No, I think it’s OK. What do you talk about in the group?
W: Well, every month we choose a new book and then during the next meeting we discuss it. We have already finished discussing The Da Vinci Code.
M: What book are you reading now?
W: The Kite Runner. And The Storied Life of A.J. Fikry is on the waiting list.
M: That sounds really interesting. I’d love to come.
W: OK, great. The next meeting will be in five days, so you’d better read the book quickly.
M: OK! I’ll go to the bookstore first.
Text 10
W: Almost all states in America have a state fair. The Indiana State Fair is one of the largest and oldest state fairs in the US. It has been held every summer since 1852. It aimed to educate, share ideas and present Indiana’s best products. During the early 1930s, officials of the fair ruled that people could attend by paying 10 cents or with something other than money. For example, farmers brought a bag of grain in exchange for entry. But now, money is the only thing accepted and the cost of a single ticket is 20 cents.
People from all over Indiana and from many other states attend the fair. They can do many things at the fair. They can watch the judging of the prized cows, pigs and other animals. They can see sheep getting their wool cut. They can watch cows giving birth. The fair provides a chance for the farming community to show its skills and farm products. For example, visitors might see the world’s largest apple or the tallest sunflower plant. Today, children and adults at the fair can play new computer games or attend more traditional games of skill. There are also many famous entertainers performing at the fair.
Experts say the fair is important because people need to remember that they are connected to Earth and its products and they depend on animals for many things.

Dear Sir/Madam,
My name is Li Hua. I’m writing to recommend myself as a candidate for the chairman of the English drama club.
First, equipped with fluent English and a good knowledge of drama from my previous experience as an actor, I have no difficulty in communicating with others in English, and I know exactly what is expected as a leader of the club. Second, I’ve been working in student organizations for a while, so I’m quite familiar with the daily routines and experienced in coordinating and organizing. Last and most importantly, I’m enthusiastic about drama and eager to take responsibility as a reliable chairman, contributing to the development of English drama. Should I have the opportunity to serve the club, I will lead it to the best of my ability.
I would appreciate it if you could take my application into consideration, and I look forward to your reply.
Yours,
Li Hua
第二节（One possible version）
My stomach churned (翻腾) and my knees felt weak. What would Mrs Eiffler do to me? “Quick, let’s get some wet paper towels,” said Judy, springing into action. After rubbing (擦), my name still remained. “I think I saw a can of cleanser by the sink in the coat room,” I said as I raced to find it. Time was passing. We rubbed and my name came off all right, but in the process of removing it, we left an abrasion (磨损) on the chalkboard.
The footsteps of Mrs Eiffler came down the hall. We dried the chalkboard as much as we could with more paper towels and fanned (扇风) it with a book. We were just moving back to our desks as the bell rang and the other students began entering the room. The teacher walked in just after. Mrs Eiffler never asked about the abrasion and maybe never noticed it. But I did. Every time I walked past the chalkboard, I remembered. The lesson I learned that day is one I would never forget. “No one will ever know” is never true. Even if no one else found out, I knew. Sometimes feeling guilty is punishment enough.
