Our school owned a boat named Jolie Brise. It was one of the most famous tall ships in the world andthreetimes winner of the Fastnet Race. The boat was unusual: especially for a remote grammar school in Wiltshire, aboutas far away from the sea as it can get in England. Obviously, such a site didn’t match its fame. Mr. Parish had originally intended to join the Royal Navy but ended up as a teacher at our school. Somepupilsguessed that he still felt the call of the ocean-perhaps because his lessons were almost entirely devoted to

navigation（航海）. They argued that it was deeply unfair to learn about navigation but never actually gotosea. Then Mr. Parish, seeing a bunch of young people prepared to crew the boat, allowed them to sail her in returnfor

working on the boat. And that was the beginning of the school sailing club. By the time I arrived, the sailing club had grown. At weekends, we would work on her all day, cleaningandpainting her, and collapse into sleeping bags on the floor at night. Then came the big day when a school sailingtripwas announced. Its destination was Saint-Malo. But it also meant that we had to refit the ship by removingeverypiece of ballast（压舱物）and replacing the bilge water（底舱污水）before we were allowed to sail. And I did learn the ropes on that school trip. I learned how to operate a ship in the high waves. I learnedthemeaning of teamwork and became a better team player. I also learned that the best fish is the one that youhavecaught and cooked yourself from a boat that you have rebuilt and sailed yourself. 4. What was unusual about the boat Jolie Brise?

A. It was in a perfect condition. B. Its lawful owner was Mr. Parish. C. It won glory for the Royal Navy. D. Its location wasn't as famous as it was. 5. Why was the sailing club set up?

A. The crew were selected. B. The boat needed workers. C. Mr. Parish tried to explore the sea. D. Students asked to practice navigation. 6. What finally made the school sailing trip possible?

A. The club’s permission. B. Mr. Parish’s sailing experience. C. The students’ preparing the ship for it. D. The school’s offering financial support. 7. What does the underlined phrase “learn the ropes” in paragraph 4 mean?

A. Learn to cook. B. Master useful skills. C. Ensure sailing safety. D. Use ropes properly.

C

Real financial security and freedom is not in our job but in our passion. It’s easy to define and evaluate amanby his pursue Joseph Campbell once said, “Follow your dream and the universe will open doors where thereareonly walls.”

In life, we’ll always be found doing any of these two things: either making a living or making a difference. Pensions （养老金） and salaries stop many from pursuing excellence while passion unlocks hidden potentialsthatequip us for challenges and opportunities. A job helps us make a living while passion enables us to make a

difference. I want to sincerely help to adjust and clarify the misguided belief among workers that a job is a means of

livelihood. Rather, it should be a means to fuel our passion. The earlier you realize this basic truth of life, themoreclearly you'll be able to position yourself in living a life of impact and value. The success of Kentucky Fried Chicken（KFC）shows how meaningful it is to pursue your passioninsteadofyour pension. Its founder, Colonel Harland Sanders, didn’t realize this until he was given his first social securitycheck of 105 dollars. But he decided that there surely was something to do for himself and other people insteadofliving on that small pension. He was determined to engage himself in what brought him impact and value. Drawinginspiration from his mother's special recipe for fried chicken, he invented “finger-licking” seasoning withelevenspices and herbs. Despite much rejection, he managed to round up some investors and promote company's rapidexpansion to more than 6,000 locations. Sanders’ life pointed towards two facts about making a difference: one, there is no age that is too old to make a difference; two, there is nothing too small or insignificant to make a

difference with, as long as it is your passion. 8. How does the author support his argument in paragraph 2?

A. By listing examples. B. By showing contrast. C. By including a quote. D. By sharing his experience. 9. How did Sanders probably feel when offered his first social security check?

A. Deeply moved. B. Pleasantly surprised. C. Greatly relieved. D. Internally motivated. 10. What does the author suggest we do?

A. Pursue our passion. B. Get a well-paid job. C. Secure our position. D. Get career guidance. 11. What is the best title for this text?

A. Passion or Pension? B. Following Your Dreams

C. Working for Pension D. To Work or not to Work?

In a study published in Nature Machine Intelligence, researchers at Ohio State University showhowartificial

intelligence（AI）can follow clinical trials to identify drugs for repurposing, a solution that can help advanceinnovative treatments. Repurposing drugs is legal and not unusual. When doctors prescribe（开处方）drugs that have beenapprovedby the Food and Drug Administration（FDA）for purposes different from what is printed on the labels, the drugsarebeing used “off-label” Just because a drug is FDA-approved for a specific type of disease does not prevent it fromhaving possible benefits for other purposes. For example, Metformin, a drug that is FDA-approved for treating type 2 diabetes, is also used to treat PCOS（a disease of women）, and other diseases. Trazodone, an anti-depressant with FDA-approval to treat depression, is also prescribed by doctors to help treat patients with sleep issues. The Ohio State University research team created an AI deep learning model for predicting treatment

probability with patient data including the treatment, outcomes, and potential confounders（干扰因素）. Confounders are related to the exposure and outcome. For example, a connection is identified betweenmusicfestivals and increases in skin rashes（红疹）. Music festivals do not directly cause skin rashes. In this case, onepossible confounding factor between the two may be outdoor heat, as music festivals tend to run outdoors whenthetemperature is high, and heat is a known cause for rashes. When working with real-world data, confounders couldnumber in the thousands. AI deep learning is well-suited to find patterns in the complexity of potentially thousandsof confounders. The researcher team used confounders including population data and co-prescribed drugs. With this

proof-of-concept, now clinicians have a powerful AI tool to rapidly discover new treatments by repurposingexisting medications. 12. What do we know about a drug used off-label?

A. It is sold without a label. B. It is available at a low price. C. Its uses extend beyond the original ones. D. Its clinical trials are rejected by doctors. 13. Metformin and Trazodone are similar as both of them________. A. are used off-label B. treat rare diseases

C. result in sleep issues D. are medical breakthroughs

14. What can be inferred about “confounders”?

A. They are possible treatments. B. They are environmental factors. C. They can be easily recognized in real-world data. D. They should be taken into serious consideration.

15. What is the main idea of the text?

A. AI examines benefits of existing drugs. B. AI identifies off-label uses for drugs. C. AI finds new drugs for common diseases. D. AI proves the power of drug research.第二节 （共 5小题；每小题 2.5 分，满分 12.5）

When I decided to leave my home country to pursue a degree in Canada, I hadn’t expected that

communication would be an issue. 16. I took English lessons in my teens and scored well on Englishtests. But soon after my arrival in Canada, I realized how wrong I was. In research discussions, surroundedbynativeEnglish speakers, I had to be careful. I needed to consciously follow each conversation and translate it to mynativelanguage. 17. Finally, I tried to find the right English words to communicate that response. Constantlythinking about what I would say next, I had a hard time remaining focused in conversations. But when I again failed to say exactly what I meant in a meeting a few months later, a simple idea occurredtome. 18 . Communicating with my colleagues by e-mail, I had more time to think and comfortably expressmy thoughts. Over time, this practice helped improve my English significantly. 19 . I decided to remind them that English is not my first language. I asked themto speak moreslowlyto help me follow the discussions. It was a little awkward to draw attention to what might be seen as a weakness. And at first, the other members of the research team seemed slightly surprised. But the dynamics quickly improved. They seemed to become more aware of how they were speaking, and I felt more comfortable joining in the

conversation. 20. A. Plus, I learned to be open with my colleagues. B. Why not contribute to the discussion in writing?

C. I had thought I could express myself in English easily. D. Gradually I grew uncomfortable with oral communication. E. Then, I had to reflect carefully on it and think of a response. F. With efforts on both sides, we could overcome language barriers. G. How can one deny the significance of effective communication?

London and Paris are two of Europe's biggest tourist destinations, just a few hours away fromeach other

byroad or rail and an hours distance by air. What about the train-ferry combination that many recall fondlyfromtheir childhoods?

traveling between the two dynamic cities by air. A very low one-way fare is possible through advanced booking, but of course it's rare, and that doesn't include the taxi and rail fares

traveling to and from the airports. * One-way fares from Paris can be as low as €49; * From London, Air France flies with fares as low as £39(€46), and British Airways as lowas £48(€56)

weekday. Eurostar’s 2015 edition trains can make the journey in two hours at speeds of up to 320 km/h. Besides, they offer good seating space. * Fares begin at a reasonable £58(€68), round trip; * The earlier you book, the more you save. Bus trip

The bus is by far the least expensive and longest way to travel between Paris and London. Eurolines andOUIBUS are two major bus lines traveling between the two capitals. The journey takes between seven andninehours. Both lines advertise free Wi-Fi. * One-way Eurolines fares begin at €15; * One-way OUIBUS fares begin at €15 too, but early bird sales can even lower the fare. 21.Which way is probably the most expensive for a round trip?

A. By train-ferry. B. By air C. By rail D. By bus

As a boy, I wanted to go to the South Pole. As a teenager, I decided I'd like to go to the North Pole too. Andyet, I haven't done either. It had taken me 31 years to just make it to the Arctic. I was traveling with a film crew from Northern Ireland, following the footsteps of Lord Dufferin who, inthe1850s, sailed from Scotland to the Arctic. As an early adventure tourist, he was driven by the desire to see what layat the ends of the world. As we sailed north, icebergs of the size of buses floated past our small boat. Finally, w reached our destination--- English Bay, where Dufferin landed- and stepped off onto the horseshoe-shaped beach. This was what I’d dreamt of: standing somewhere so pure and primitive. However, for many early polar

explorers, the results were far less pleasant. The south, in particular, was source of extreme danger. My childhood interest in the South Pole was fueled by the unsuccessful yet heroic adventures of

Emest Shackleton. He died in 1922 while preparing for his fourth adventure. The stories of Robert FalconScott arealso well-known: he and four companions died on their way back from the South Pole. So why do explorers put themselves at such risk?

Much of it seems to lie in the purity of the challenge. Scott talked of the appeal of a place that had been“unreached and unseen by humans.” “ With a view over shining lands covered by ice-sheets of inconceivableextent, you have the feeling of living over the control of death,”said Fridtj of Nansen, a Norwegian explorer. On the homeward journey the weather turned and we were left for a few days at the mercy of a storm. We experienced a small taste of helplessness when faced with the raw power of nature. We should be grateful for

the great explorers’spirit and stories. I know I am. 24.Why did the author begin his adventure tour?

A. To assist a film crew B. To realize a childhood dreamC.To memorize Lord Dufferin D.To challenge a world record

25.Which of the following best explains “inconceivable” underlined in paragraph 7?

A. Hard to control B. Too far to reach

C. Hard to imagine D. Too bright to view

26.What happened during the writer's journey?

A. They were trapped in icebergs B. They were kept off the destination

C.They were attacked by a storm D.They were rescued by explorers

学科网（北京）股份有限公司 13

27.Which of the following is the best title for the text?

B. The Dream of Traveling to the Arctic

C.The Victory over the Control of Death

D.The Gratitude to Great Explorers Spirit

“It has nothing in common with anything else on the Bund(外滩)”said Ben Wood, the American architect

behind Shanghai's famous Xintiandi District, commenting on the Fosun Foundation after its completion in2016. “The great thing about the Bund is that it’s grand. Perhaps a building that can stand out is needed here to showthat

a company is progressive. But it's not grand.” For now, however, the Fosun Foundation ---a new theatre ---is proving popular with riverside tourists. Located in the Bund Finance Center, the theatre was designed by co-operation of two world-known Britishdesign firms: Foster Partners and Heatherwick Studio. The architectural highlight is the outward appearance---agolden, three-layered(层) steel bamboo curtain that hangs from the third floor. But what makes the architecturereally unique is that it\"dances\" : repeatedly each day, the curtain slowly moves ---opens and closes--- withmusic. This visual element, combining East and West, looks like both an ancient Chinese crown and a Western harp(竖琴). The building's ground floor entrance looks unclear, but once inside, you'll see the space reveal a hall and cafe, andtraditional Chinese theatres on the upper floors. Although there’re only four stories above ground, the buildinghouses several music halls on its three underground floors. “The opportunity to make something new in this culturally historic location was extraordinary,” saidThomasHeatherwick, Heatherwick Studio founder. \"We tried to make it an interesting addition to showShanghais mixof

modern and historic architecture.” The Fosun Foundation is only part of a bigger plan for this economic and cultural center in China. AlongtheHuangpu River, a massive waterfront art area is being built. Shanghai hopes to play a larger role in the global art

industry in the coming years. What Shanghai makes of this new riverside project remains to be seen. But with the Fosun Foundationopento the public, the area's rapid transformation is bringing up discussions in China's arts scene and beyond. 28.What did Ben Wood mainly talk about?

A. How to keep the Bund area progressive. B.Why the Bund area doesn’t stand out. C.How to make the Fosun Foundation grand. D.Why the Fosun Foundation doesn’t fit the area.

学科网（北京）股份有限公司 14

29.What makes the theatre unusual?

A. The colour of its appearance. B. The material of the building

C.The movement of its curtain. D. The music of a different type. 30.What is Shanghai’s bigger plan for the Bund area?

A. To improve its influence in arts. B. To bring up more traditional buildings. C.To strengthen its economic role. D.To mix modern and historic elements. 31.Which word best describes the author's attitude to the plan?

A. Worried B. Pessimistic C. Cautious D. Confident

If all goes well, a balloon will soon rise from Esrange Space Center in Kiruna, Sweden. It will float highintothe upper atmosphere and then return to Earth. However, environmentalists have arrived to stop this fromhappening. The campaigners are against the balloon because of what occurs in flight. The balloon will shoot dust intotheEarths upper atmosphere, causing more sunlight to reflect back into space. The dust, known as stratospheric aerosol

injection(SAI), is part of a solar geoengineering (地球工程)program named SCoPex which is being conductedbyHarvard University. The aim of the program is to purposely change the Earth's atmosphere to fight climate change. Those who oppose worry about two things. Firstly, the moral risk-if solar geoengineering works, talks onreducing greenhouse gases will be challenged. The second concern is the amount of SAI in the atmosphere. Tokeeptemperatures low, the need of the reflective dust to be released high above Earth will be endless, and a suddenstopcould result in rapid warming. Raymond Pierrehumbert, a physicist at Oxford University, says solar geoengineeringis even tool risky to research beyond computer models. Not all environmentalists are opposed to it. Since the world is unlikely to achieve the 1. 5 ℃global warmingtarget set in the Paris Agreement, some green organizations favour small-sized geoengineering research. Regardless of the criticism, the research continues. Geoengineering is increasingly gaining international

attention. A recent report about climate change suggested that SAI could help keep warming below1. 5℃, TheNational Academy of Sciences, Engineering and Medicine in the USA has developed a research plan for solar

geoengineering and received governmental funding totaling S9 million. Both China and India have also launchedresearch programmes of their own. Activists may oppose the experiments, but balloons will likely fly anyway.

Growing up, I was often the first Jewish person my classmates had ever met. I lived in Mississauga, Ontario, and was the only Jewish student in my grade—sometimes the only one in the whole school. This difference set meapart.Every September, I hated presenting the note my parents had expertly made to a teacher I was just gettingtoknow. The note explained that I would be absent during the Jewish High Holidays of Rosh Hashanah and YomKippur. I fretted that my teachers would label me the “Jewish kid”. The real trouble always came as the local new year’s festival approached. I was Jewish and celebratedHanukkah, not this festival. At school, on one day before the winter break, every class would sit in neat rows inthegym and sing songs from the festival. However, the music teacher sometimes played Dreidel, Dreidel, Dreidel, aJewish festival song, and I would feel hundreds of eyes staring at my red cheeks. As my friends counted downthedays until the festival, I counted the days until it was over and I could go back to feeling normal. Each year during primary school, my mother would coordinate (协调) with my teacher to come to myclassand tell the story of Hanukkah. She would prepare treats and materials depending on my age. Every time I wouldproudly stand beside her as she told the story of Hanukkah and explained the symbols. The children who hadattended the presentation previously competed to answer questions. After my mom left, I would overhear themshowing off their fried treats to kids in other classes. My mom’s annual visits to my school sparked (激发) interest from other parents as well. Over the years, wehad visits from parents who shared how festivals were celebrated in Germany and Italy. My mom showed me, my classmates and their families that what sets us apart should be celebrated andshared, an intention which I continue to set for myself as I cycle through another holiday season.

Today China is the world’s biggest consumer of wheat. But it wasn’t always that way. Wheat only came to the area now known as northern China toward the end of the Neolithic (新石器) period, some 4,600 years ago. Initially, wheat didn’t seem to be so delicious and had been treated as a crop of desperationrather than a cooking delight. The first farmers of northern China primarily grew millet (粟), starting as earlyas11,500 years ago. By the time of the Tang dynasty, wheat had replaced millet, becoming a major crop. But

relatively little was known about exactly why this shift occurred. In an attempt to track the answer, I accumulated (积累) a collection of nearly 1,200 data points coveringmorethan 50 sites from the mid-Neolithic, about 9,000 years ago, to the collapse of the Eastern Han dynasty in220AD. The sites were across 8 modern provinces, ranging from Gansu province in the northwest to Shandong provinceinthe east. One possible explanation is a major climate shift, called the Holocene Event 3, which happened 4,000to4,500years ago. At that time, the climate became colder and drier across continents, causing damage to crop production. On top of this, the late Neolithic period was also a time of rapid population growth around the world. Withanever-increasing population and unsteady crop production, it is reasonable to assume that Neolithic farmers innorthern China were struggling.

学科网（北京）股份有限公司 22

Wheat, it turns out, actually needs more water than millet, making it seem a poor choice for a dry periodof

history. But importantly, it can be sowed after millet has been harvested. That, we think, is the most likelyreasonwhy the people across northern China started to grow wheat. From more extreme weather to changing coastlines, climate change has always brought unexpected andsometimes dramatic changes to societies. In this instance, the consequence of the Holocene Event 3 in northernChina proved, eventually, delicious. 8. What can we learn about wheat from the second paragraph?

A. It replaced millet for its great taste. B. It was a poor choice at the beginning. C. It outnumbered millet 4,600 years ago. D. It was the earliest crop grown in China. 9. What do the figures in paragraph 3 show?

A. The author found the exact answer. B. The author did the research cautiously. C. The author did extensive research. D. The author was good at collecting data. 10. What was probably the main reason for northerners in China to grow wheat?

A. The water supply was enough then. B. The harvest of millet was not satisfying. C. It adjusted to the weather conditions better. D. It had an alternative sowing season with millet. 11. Which of the following can be the best title for the text?

A. How was millet introduced to China?

B. Why did Chinese farmers switch to wheat?

C. How did China become the biggest wheat consumer?

D. How was China’s wheat growth affected by climate change?

The robots are alive, and now they can reproduce. That’s not a continuation to “The Terminator” It's the latest result of research among scientists at Harvardandthe University of Vermont. These xenobots, named for the African frog Xenopus laevis, could move aroundanddisplay collective behavior. The researchers took stem cells (干细胞) from the skin of frog and put them in salt water, where theycametogether into balls with a covering of cilia, which are similar to small hairs and enable the organisms (生物体) tomove. The scientists noticed that these organisms, xenobots, would collect any particles (粒子) placed in thedishtomake piles. They started to wonder whether the tiny robots would do the same thing with individual stemcells, so

学科网（北京）股份有限公司 23

they conducted a test. Knowing that xenobots5 shapes affect their behavior, the researchers tried to figure out which formwouldhelpthe organism to reproduce repeatedly. They discovered that a “C” shape seemed to be the best. The C-shapedxenobots gathered individual stem cells into groups, which became xenobots of their own. This type of

reproduction is based on the organisms’ movement, rather than growing and then forming a newbeing as other

animals and plants do. Xenobots are on an unusual line between living organisms and robots. They are organisms because theyaremade of stem cells and can reproduce. But they are also robots because they can move on their own and performphysical labor. Although most robots are made of metal, robots are given the definition not by their material, but bywhat they can do. Before now, Kriegman, a postdoctoral fellow at Harvard University, said, “no one has been using livingmaterials as self-moving, self-powered robots.” The researchers hope that the xenobots can help thembetter

understand the process of reproduction —a fundamental quality of life —and how to control it. Faced withaworldfull of self-reproducing problems, such as Covid-19, Kriegman said studying xenobots could lead scientists closerto solutions. 12. What inspired the researchers to perform an experiment?

A. The position of particles. B. The gathering of stem cells. C. The movement of organisms. D. The collective ability of xenobots. 13. What is special about the C-shaped xenobots reproduction?

A. It's repeated constantly. B. It generates new beings. C. It separates individual stem cells. D. It's based on xenobots’ motion. 14. How are xenobots defined as robots?

A. By their function. B. By their reproduction. C. By their unique component. D. By their physical appearance. 15. What can be inferred about the research from the last paragraph?

A. It could make a breakthrough. B. It would bring scientists closer. C. It could find the secret of reproduction. D. It would discover the solution to Covid-19.第二节（共 5 小题；每小题 2.5 分，满分 12.5 分）

tell you the truth.” Art provides a way to communicate experiences when people lack verbal skills. 16Art

therapy is founded on the assumption that everyone is creative and capable of self-expression. 17 As a restorative practice, it allows people to express themselves in non-verbal ways, suchas

drawing and painting. Even a 45-minute creative activity can change a person's mental state. Working withanart

therapist does even more: 18

Young children typically draw and sing and dance without worrying about their abilities. Adults, however, often have complex feelings about art and art making. They begin to evaluate the quality of their art insteadof

focusing on self-expression itself. 19 However, art therapists can guide people in expressing themselveswithout concerning whether their artwork is technically brilliant, so that they can connect or reconnect withtheartworks that help them deal with life challenges. What are art therapists’superpower? They can channel dangerous thoughts into imaginative artworks. For

instance, people with violent tendencies might let out their anger by hitting another human being. ____20____These artistic choices satisfy the brain's desire for novelty without compromising personal safety. A. Art therapy is a double-edged sword. B. Thus, the many benefits of creative self-expression are lost. C. They develop art as an expressive skill for solving problems. D. But, obviously, releasing their anger in this way isn't a good choice. E. Art therapy, in its own ways, can influence a range of human functioning.

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。Last March, Margarito drove to visit his mother who lived in the countryside. When he set off for home, Margarito’s mother looked at the dark sky and noticed the sign of a coming storm. Worried about her son’s safety, she told him to drive as carefully as possible on his way home and he promised to give her a call upon his arrival. With his mother’s words in mind, Margrito approached the main road carefully. Soon, it started to rainheavily. Eager to get home, Margarito began to drive faster. Two hours later, he came to a bumpy mountain road that hadbeen flooded by a creek（小溪）.Margarito, driving a four-wheel truck, figured that he would be OK. At that

moment, he didn’t realize that such a thought would be a big mistake. It was halfway across the creek that an unfortunate incident took place: The rushing waters grabbed holdof hisvehicle, pushing it off the road and sending it down a rocky creek bed. The truck finally stopped some 80 feet away. Margarito’s problems only grew from there as the water had somehow positioned the truck into the creek bankat a45-degree angle, making it difficult for him to open the driver's side door. Injured and trapped inside withthemuddy water rising quickly, Margarito was certain he was going to die. Shaking with fear, he was at a loss about

what to do. On the road right behind Margarito were a delivery worker named Steve and his nephew Mike, who wereonthe way to deliver furniture to customers in the countryside. They witnessed the horrible incident, and whenMargarito’s truck came to rest in the middle of the overflowing creek, Steve quickly began to take action. First, hegrabbed a rope from the back of his vehicle and used it to ensure he could safely approach the truck.注意：

Wang Shuang was just five when her parents divorced, dropped her at her uncle's and left. Football, as it oftenis, became an escape. At seven, she was spotted by coach Xu Yilong, who found Wang quick in her playful behaviour. As theonlygirl in the boys' team, Wang's performances were impressive, earning her the nickname “Iron Girl”. And soon, shesensed the sport's power. Football allowed her to “release herself” and realize “whatever happens, football never

leaves you alone.” However, life was never smooth sailing. The constant jibes (嘲讽) from some people, who always triedtopush her down and destroy her hopes, affected her so deeply that she lost confidence. “They were saying I hadnotalent at all. Gradually, I felt really so.” Wang once wrote. But never did she stop playing. When she was calledupto the national team, aged 17, Wang thought, “Me? Are you sure?” When a world-famous club wanted to signher, she was “excited that an excellent coach thought I was good.” It was only then that she felt confident in her abilities. “I felt recognized. Perhaps I had a bit of talent after all.” Not any “bit of talent”; the genius is praised as China's once-in-a-generation player. China is a pioneer of women's football in Asia and has won the continental championship eight times, including seven straight titles between 1986 and 1999. That was their golden age. Gradually, though, the dynastydeclined. It is hoped that Wang will inspire the women's football of the country to its former height. Coaches are almost always hesitant to speak about individual players. But when coach Shui was askedabout

Wang before the match against Vietnam, she couldn't stop mentioning her influence on the team. Unfailinglyperforming on the big stage, Wang did not let her team down. When they lacked a quality ball, she deliveredtwohigh assists that finally led her team into the last-four clash (四分之一决赛). “Nobody knows how hard it was,” declared Wang after the match. “We overcame difficulties. We alsoshowedour strong spiritual power. I am proud of my team.” 4. What can we infer about Wang from the second paragraph?

A. She earned a living on her own. B. She was released from the team. C. She was laughed at by the boys. D. She found a sense of belonging. 5. How did Wang regain faith in her abilities?

A. By winning recognition. B. By obtaining inspiration. C. By playing in the national team. D. By ignoring other people's jibes. 6. Which would best describe coach Shui’s attitude to Wang?

A. Conservative. B. Contradictory. C. Favourable. D. Demanding. 7. What's the best title for the text?

Endangered polar bears are breeding (繁殖) with grizzly bears (灰熊), creating “pizzly” bears, whichis beingdriven by climate change, scientists say. As the world warms and Arctic sea ice thins, starving polar bears are being forced ever further south, wherethey meet grizzlies, whose ranges are expanding northwards. And with that growing contact between the twocomeincreasing hybrids (杂交种). With characteristics that could give the hybrids an advantage in warming northern habitats, some scientistsguess that they could be here to stay. “Usually, hybrids aren't better suited to their environments than their parents, but these hybrids are able to search for a broader range of food sources, ” Larisa DeSantis, an associate professor ofbiological sciences at Vanderbilt University, told Live Science. The rise of “pizzly” bears appears with polar bears' decline: their numbers are estimated to decrease bymorethan 30% in the next 30 years. This sudden fall is linked partly to “pizzly” bears taking up polar bears' ranges, where they outcompete them, but also to polar bears' highly specialized diets. “Polar bears mainly consumed soft foods even during the Medieval Warm Period, a previous period of rapidwarming,” DeSantis said, referring to fat meals such as seals. “Although all of these starving polar bears aretryingto find alternative food sources, like seabird eggs, it could be a tipping point for their survival.” Actually, thecalories they gain from these sources do not balance out those they burn from searching for them. This couldresult

in a habitat ready for the hybrids to move in and take over, leading to a loss in biodiversity if polar bears arereplaced. “We're having massive impacts with climate change on species,” DeSantis said. “The polar bear is tellingushow bad things are. In some sense, “pizzly” bears could be a sad but necessary compromise given current warmingtrends.” 8. Why do polar bears move further south?

A. To create hybrids. B. To expand territory. C. To relieve hunger. D. To contact grizzlies. 9. What makes “pizzly” bears adapt to natural surroundings better than their parents?

A. Broader habitats. B. More food options. C. Climate preference. D. Improved breeding ability. 10. What does the underlined phrase “a tipping point” in paragraph 5 refer to?

A. A rare chance. B. A critical stage. C. A positive factor. D. A constant change. 11. What's the main idea of the text?

A. Polar bears are changing diets for climate change. B. Polar bears have already adjusted to climate change.

The rechargeable lithium-ion (锂离子) battery market is worth more than ＄50 billion. Lithium-ion batteries, whose demand continues to go up day by day, are used in a wide range of electronic devices. They are madeof fourmain components, and cathode (阴极) is one of them. The cathode’s active material type is what determines thecapacity of a battery. A recent study, led by Wang Yan, a material scientist of Worcester Polytechnic Institute, finds that lithium-ionbatteries made with recycled cathodes work better than those with new cathodes. “The battery industry is expected to grow sharply in the next decade. This high demand has led companiestogo to extremes, like increasing deep-sea mining, to gain access to the minerals used in lithium-ion batteries,”Wangsaid. “Mining minerals will have environmental impacts. Recycling spent lithium-ion batteries offers a wayout.”But until now, the prospect of using recycled materials in lithium-ion batteries has some manufacturers (制造商) worrying that it could impact performance. Thus, lithium-ion batteries are still not widely recycled. Awareof

decreasing resources and environmental impact, Wang and other researchers set out to find a way to make recyclinglithium-ion batteries economically practical. Through experiments, they could recover more than 90%of thekeymetals from spent batteries. These recovered metals became the basis of the new recycled battery’s cathode’s activematerial. In tests between Wang’s team’s recycled batteries and brand-new batteries of the same composition, therecycled batteries outperform the new ones in their ability to maintain capacity. It took 11,600 charge cycles for

recycled cathode batteries to lose 30 percent of their original capacity. That was about 50 percent better thanthe7,600 observed cycles for new cathode batteries, the team reported. Those thousands of extra cycles couldtranslateinto years of better battery performance, even after repeated use and recharging. 12. What can we learn about lithium-ion batteries from the first paragraph?

A. They are high in price. B. They are in great demand. C. They are limited in use. D. They are simple in composition. 13. What does Wang mainly talk about in paragraph 3?

A. The target users of recycled batteries. B. The ways to get minerals for batteries. C. The major reasons for recycling batteries. D. The complex process of recycling batteries. 14. What are the manufacturers concerned about?

A. Declining mineral resources. B. Difficult recycling techniques. C. Serious environmental problems. D. Inefficient battery performance.

From cottages surrounded by impressive gardens to days spent exploring sandy beaches and deep woods filledwith wildlife, in My Family and Other Animals, English writer Gerald Durrell provided a vivid account of his

family’s time on the Greek island of Corfu in the 1930s. Come for the arresting descriptions of Corfu landscapes and stay for Durrell’s laugh-out-loud tales of his

学科网（北京）股份有限公司 37

unusual family. This book, Durrell wrote humorously in the introduction, “was intended to be a nostalgic(怀旧的)account of natural history, but in the first few pages, I made the mistake of introducing my family.” Durrell, later known for his zoo keeping and the preservation of wildlife, was just a child during his family’sfive-year stay in Corfu. He is 10-year-old Gerry in the book—curious, passionate about animals and a detailedstoryteller of his strange family: his imaginative elder brother Larry with his literary ambitions, lovestrucksister

Margo, sporty brother Leslie and his ever-calm, loving mother. Durrell’s attention to detail is what makes the book so winning, with every sight, sound and smell of theislandbrought to life. One minute you’ll be laughing as Larry’s clever literary friends walk down to the daffodil-yellowcottage, the next you’ll be catching your breath as Durrell describes swimming at night in the Ionian Sea: “Lyingonmy back in the silky water, staring at the sky, only moving my hands and feet slightly, I was looking at the MilkyWay stretching like a silk scarf across the sky and wondering how many stars it contained.” My Family and Other Animals is quite difficult to classify, being one part travel, one part autobiography, onepart natural history, and one part comedy, with a thread of descriptive language running throughout that sometimesraises it nearly to poetry. As a real delight to read, it’s the perfect literary escapism for any adult or older teenager who is currentlywalking down a tough road in life. 4. Which word best describes Durrell’s life in Corfu?

A. Diverse. B. Busy. C. Risky. D. Tough. 5. What does the underlined sentence mean in paragraph 2?

A. I just introduced my family by mistake. B. I shouldn’t have introduced my family. C. I gave false information about my family. D. I couldn’t help introducing my family. 6. What are paragraph 4 and 5 mainly about?

A. Durrell’s rich imagination. B. Some interesting plots of the book. C. The book’s writing feature. D. Some vivid descriptions of the island. 7. What is the purpose of this text?

A. To share an experience. B. To introduce a writing style. C. To recommend a book. D. To describe an unusual place. C

When put to tests, bees have long proved that they’ve got a lot more to offer than pollinating (授粉), makinghoney and being loyal to a queen. The hard-working insects can change their behavior when things seemdifficult, and now some scientists find there is proof that they also like to play. Scientists from Queen Mary University of London performed an experiment, in which they set up a containerthat allowed bees to travel from their nest to a feeding area. But along the way, the bees could choose to pass

学科网（北京）股份有限公司 38

through a separate section with some small wooden balls. Over 18 days, the scientists watched as the bees “went

out of their way to roll wooden balls repeatedly, despite no apparent incentive (刺激) to do so.” Earlier studies have shown that the black and yellow bugs are willing to learn new tricks in exchange for foodor other rewards. In this case, to get rid of external factors, scientists made sure the bees had adapted to their newhome and that their environment was stress-free. The finding suggests that like humans, insects also interact with objects as a form of play. Also similar topeople, younger bees seem to be more playful than adult bees. “This research provides a strong indicationthat

insect minds are far more complicated than we imagine. There are lots of animals who play just for the purposeofenjoyment, but most examples come from young mammals and birds,” said Lars Chittka, a professor of sensoryand behavioral ecology at Queen Mary University of London, who led the study. The study’s first author. Samadi Galpay, who is a PhD student at Queen Mary University of London, statesthat it is more evident that bees may be capable of experiencing feelings. “They may actually experience somekindof positive emotional states, even if basic, like other larger animals do. This finding has effects on our

understanding of the sense and welfare of insects, which, consequently, encourages us to respect and protect

wildlife on Earth ever more,” she says. 8. What is the new finding about bees?

A. They are fond of having fun. B. They are faithful to the queen. C. They are adaptable to changes D. They are skilled at rolling balls. 9. How did scientists remove external influences in the experiment?

A. By teaching bees new tricks. B. By rewarding bees with food. C. By making bees feel at home. D. By building new homes for bees

10. What are Lars Chittka’s words mainly about?

A. The forms of bees’ interaction. B. The complexity of bees’ minds. C. The examples of mammals’ play. D. The purpose of mammals’ enjoyment. 11. What does Samadi Galpay say about the study result?

A. It backs up prior understanding of insects. B. It reveals reasons for bees’ positive feelings. C. It drives research on animals’ emotional state. D. It contributes to wildlife conservation on Earth. D

“You’re so smart!” This encouraging response to children’s math performance is commonly heard. Recently, anew study, conducted by the University of Georgia, found that encouraging children with responses relatedtotheirpersonal characteristics or inborn abilities might weaken their math achievement over time.

学科网（北京）股份有限公司 39

Parents who make comments connecting their children’s performance with personal qualities like IQareusingwhat’s referred to as person responses. In contrast, parents who connect their children’s actions, such as effortsorstrategy use, to their performance are using process responses. For the study, researchers asked more than 500 parents to report on how they responded to their children’smath performance and their math beliefs and goals. Children were divided into two groups across a year tomeasuretheir math achievement. The results show that parents who view math ability as changeable are more likely to give process responsesfocused on their children’s strategy use and efforts rather than their IQ or other personal qualities. In contrast, parents who believe math ability is unchangeable and that math failure can’t be constructive give more personresponses. Parents with high expectations for their children give both responses. While responses focusedonstrategy and efforts are not related to any achievement results, children who receive more responses about their

personal qualities — especially, related to failure — are more likely to avoid harder math problems, showhigher

levels of math anxiety, and score lower on math achievement tests. Because person responses mean poor math change in children over time, researchers suggest parents limit thistype of responses at home. Another recommendation for parents is to think about their own beliefs and goals for

their kids and examine how these might lead them to respond in person or process ways. Simply telling parentstoavoid talking about math ability may not be enough. Focusing less on how children perform and more on their

strategy and enjoyment of math might be a more effective way to encourage children. 12. Which of the following is an example of process response?

A. What works well for your study? B. Running is in your DNA. C. You are a lucky dog. D. Why are you such a math talent?

13. What can be learned from the study results?

A. Parents prefer to give more process responses. B. Person responses can discourage children from learning math. C. Process responses help with children’s math achievement. D. Children are more likely to be affected by math anxiety. 14. What do researchers advise parents to do?

A. Ignore children’s math problems. B. Protect their own beliefs. C. Stress children’s performance. D. Limit person responses. 15. Which can be a suitable title for the text?

A. The Strategy Children Use to Learn Math Helps

B. Responses to improve Children’s Math Performance

C. The Way Parents Talk to Children on Math Matters

Today was Community Service Day at school. Maya’s class was going to make cards for the seniors livinginanursing home. It was also the first day Maya would be wearing her leg brace (腿支架) to school, which was

designed to help her walk more steadily and smoothly. It was a cold autumn morning, Maya looked down, feeling embarrassed. To make it lovelier, she haddelicatelydecorated the brace with pretty butterfly patterns. Still, she was unsure about others’ reaction. All morningat school, kids kept glancing at her brace. To her relief, they didn’t say anything. In the classroom, Maya was drawing little green buds (芽) and pretty flowers when her friend Samir cameover and sat by her. She felt his eyes fixed on her brace and heard him asking, “What’s that for?” Not knowingwhat to say, Maya pretended she didn’t hear him. After a few seconds of awkwardness, she glanced back at him, and found that he looked a little sad. After lunch, the class set off. The nursing home was on a small hill and all of them walked there happilyalongthe path. Maya found that the brace did make it easier for her to walk up. Maya and Samir were paired up with a lady who was 83 years old. There at the end of the hall in a wheelchair, with a big smile on her face, sat the lady, wearing a pink coat, with red lipstick and beautiful earrings. She lookedbright and full of life. Moving flexibly and fast towards Maya and Samir, she greeted first. “I’mJoan, ” she saidcheerfully, “Glad to meet you. ” Maya and Samir handed her the cards they made. Joan looked at Samir’s card carefully and spoke withadmiration, “You’ve written a poem! That’s so artistic!” Samir’s face reddened with shyness. Then Joan turnedtoMaya’s picture. “The first flowers of spring!” she cried in delight. “You really have a gift for using colour!” shesaid. Clearly, Joan’s praise added great power into Maya.注意：

My childhood was a painted picture of sunny sky and rolling green fields stretching to the horizon. It tastedofsharp berries and smelt of sour grapes. My family lived in a cabin(小木屋) in the countryside but I lived inmymother’s arms. They were so delicate but strong, her red hair falling around me like a curtain separating me fromthe world. Childhood was simple. The borders of my village were the furthest my troubles went and monsters onlylivedin the pages of books. Every day was a waking dream of running races and muddy knees. My village was archaic, dying cabins housing dying farmers with dying traditions. There weren’t many children but me and the other boys;

boys of butchers and sellers formed our own group. They called us wild. I suppose we were. Trees and mountains formed our playgrounds and fights brokeout aseasily as sudden laughter. Liberated from the restrictions of society, we would bound into the woods, deeper anddeeper until we found a lake which, with a wild yell, we would jump into all at once. My most vivid memories from boyhood center around that lake. Water shone brightly and the sounds of our

screams broke into the outcry from birds. The shock of cold water against sweating skin would wake everynerveinmy body and my bare feet would hit the sinking muddy bottom. As we submerged(淹没)，time would suspend，movements slowing as bubbles rose around us. I was drowning. I was living. I was living. I was drowning. For timelessness or a second (both felt the same), we would suspend, curl up, and then be forced backout intobreathing air. We should have known that it wouldn’t last forever. Yet, even under the best circumstances, there’s somethingso tragic about growing up: to have your perspective on the people and life around you change; to always struggleto reach a mirror only to find yourself tall enough to see your reflection one day. And find, a different personstaring back out at you. 4. What does the underlined word “archaic” mean in paragraph 2?

A. Borderless. B.Valueless. C. Old-fashioned. D. Poverty-stricken. 5. Why did the author consider himself and other children wild?

A. They played in the woods crazily. B. They tricked others purposefully. C. They frequently broke social rules. D. They firmly refused school education. 6. How does the author introduce his memories of the lake?

A. By sharing feelings. B. By expressing ideas. C. By making comparisons. D. By describing characters. 7. What message does the author seem to convey in the last paragraph?

A. Loneliness and challenges make a man grow up. B. The regret of growth is that you have never tried.

C. Growth is often accompanied by sad goodbyes to the past. D. Growth begins when we begin to accept our own weakness. C

In shallow coastal waters of the Indian ocean, Dugong, a kind of sea cow, is in trouble. Environmental

problems pose such a major threat to its survival that the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN)

upgraded the species’ extinction risk status(地位)to vulnerable (脆弱的). Much worse, Dugongs are at risk of losing the protection of the Torres Strait Islanders, who have lookedafterthem historically, hunting them for food sustainably and monitoring their numbers. These native people keeptheirbiodiversity, and have deep knowledge about their environment. But these people are also threatened, in part

because rising sea levels are making it difficult for them to live there. This situation isn’t unique to Dugongs. A global analysis of 385 culturally important plant and animal speciesfound 68 percent were both biologically vulnerable and at risk of losing their cultural protection. The findings clearly illustrate that biology shouldn’t be the primary factor in shaping conservation policy, saysanthropologist Victoria Reyes-García.When a culture declines, the species that are important to that culture arealsothreatened. “Lots of conservationists think we need to separate people from nature,” says Reyes-García. “But that

strategy misses the caring relationship many cultural groups have with nature.” One way to help shift conservation efforts is to give species a “bio-cultural status,”which would provideafuller picture of their vulnerability. In the study, the team used a new way to determine a species’ risk of

disappearing: the more a cultural group’s language use declines, the more that culture is threatened.The moreaculture is threatened, the more culturally vulnerable its important species are. Researchers then combineda species’cultural and biological vulnerability to arrive at its bio-cultural status. In the Dugong’s case, its bio-cultural statusisendangered, meaning it is more at risk than its IUCN categorization suggests. This new approach to conservation involves people that have historically cared for them. It can highlight whencommunities need support to continue their care. Scientists hope it will bring more efforts that recognize local

communities’ rights and encourage their participation-taking advantage of humans’ connection with nature insteadof creating more separation. 8. What is the relationship between the native people and Dugongs?

A. The native people help conserve Dugongs. B. The native people train Dugongs to survive. C. Dugongs ruin the native people’s environment. D. Dugongs force the native people to leave home. 9. Which statement will Reyes-García probably agree with?

A. The protection policy is used incorrectly. B. Culture is connected to species’ existence. C. Many groups take good care of each other. D. Conservationists prefer nature over people.

A. Conservative. B. Favourable. C. Critical. D. Ambiguous. D

Adapting to technological advances is a defining part of the 21st-century life. Just two months after beinglaunched in November 2022, OpenAI’s ChatGPT has already reached an audience of over 100 million people. While ChatGPT threatens to change writing and writing-related work, the Mesopotamians, who lived 4,000yearsago in a geographical area centered in modern-day Iraq, went through this kind of far-reaching change beforeus. Ancient Mesopotamia was home to many of civilization’s early developments. Its people were worldleadersin adapting to technological and cultural changes. They invented the wheel and agriculture, and pioneeredadvancesin mathematics and urbanization. These breakthroughs are reflected in cuneiform(楔形文字)literature，oneof theoldest known forms of writing. In its literature, Mesopotamians don’t present cultural and technological advances as consistently

beneficial.They often represent new technologies being controlled in the service of human conflict and mostlyserving the interests of those with high social positions. In some ways，the representation of newtechnologies initsliterature echoes(映现)contemporary concerns about AI: fears of increasing social inequalities and its potential usein information war. In recent years, AI—the newest form of writing—has been used to decipher(破译)the oldest: cuneiformliterature. In broader fields,the boundaries of how AI may be used haven’t been clearly explained. In January, for

example, a top international AI conference banned the use of AI tools for writing scientific papers. Humans have been struggling to invent, use and adapt to technology since our earliest civilizations. But thetechnology and resulting knowledge are not always evenly distributed. Knowing how we adapted to changingtechnology in the past helps us more fully understand the human condition and may even help us prepare for thefuture. 12. What does paragraph 2 mainly talk about concerning Mesopotamians?

A. Their adaptation to threats. B. Their influences on writing. C. Their contribution to literature. D. Their achievements in civilization. 13. What can be inferred about technological advances from paragraph 3?

A. They prevent human conflict. B. They bring about hidden dangers. C. They take away people’s concerns. D. They lower people’s social status.

14. What is the current situation of AI according to paragraph 4?

A. Its use in literature is popular. B. It is not allowed to finish papers. C. Its range of application is undefined. D. It is not accepted in broader fields. 15. Which of the following is a suitable title for the text?

A. How People Can Use the Latest Technology

B. How ChatGPT Will Threaten Writing and Work

C. What AI Will Do by Learning Cuneiform Literature

D. What History Can Teach Us About New Tech’s Impact

阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Have you noticed how evenings cool off more in rural areas than they do in cities? Urban areas also tendtogethotter during the day than any nearby areas with lots of greenery. 16

It’s mainly caused by the difference in materials that cover the ground in urban areas and the countryside. Inthe country, evaporation(蒸发)of water from soil and the leaves of plants helps to cool the air. 17 Havingfewer plants, cities have less evaporation and are unable to cool down the temperature. Dark colours are another problem. Dark objects absorb all wavelengths of light, making the temperatureincrease more noticeably. In contrast, white objects reflect all wavelengths of light energy. 18 Sadly, most

parts of cities are covered by asphalt(沥青), steel, roofs and bricks which are often dark in colour. 19 As people drive cars, heat buildings, and run air conditioners, cities are generating waste heat andpouring it into the atmosphere directly. The waste heat adds to the solar energy trapped by the tall buildings. But cities don’t have to be so hot. Some cities have lightened their streets. This is done by covering blackasphalt streets, parking lots, and dark roofs with a more reflective gray coating. 20

Having more green spaces also helps. Plants serve as a natural air conditioner. They catch heat, release

vapour(蒸汽)into the air, and take away heat, contributing to cooler, fresher cities. A. Cities also produce more heat than suburban areas. B. The higher the temperature, the shorter the wavelength. C. This phenomenon is known as the urban heat-island effect. D. So it will not be transformed into heat which makes the air hot. E. Changes in building materials have a minimal effect on city temperatures. F. Much of the soil in cities, by contrast, has been covered with roads and buildings. G. These changes can decrease air temperatures dramatically, especially in summer.
