like Janja Garnbret,an Olympic gold medalist and eight-time world champion.Having risen to the top of the sport,the Slovenian now is using her platform to raise awareness of the“cultural trap”in climbing.She says it is contributing to a widespread issue with eating disorders.The problem is from an outdated idea that weighing less means you climb faster.Such a mindset has created an environment where young athletes start skipping or cutting down on meals,she says,sometimes to disastrous effect.Despite not having issues with eating disorders herself,she is more than aware of friends and fellow competitors who have damaged their bodies in the pursuit of a thinner figure.“I have to recognize that weight does have some role to play in the sport.I also want to win,but I’m a strong believer that you can do climbing,or any sport,in a healthy way.Luckily I didn’t fall into this trap.”She says.“I was trying hard to help them get out of it,but it didn’t work.It was really hard for me to see them destroying themselves,mentally and physically.”It was experiences such as this that inspired Garnbret to post a message on the social platform in July2023about eating disorders.The post sparked a huge response throughout the climbing community and attracted support from the likes of US rock climber Sasha DiGiulian.In her message,Garnbret spoke about Relative Energy Deficiency in Sport(REDs)—a syndrome(综合征) that occurs when someone of any gender has overtrained and/or undereaten for a long period in an attempt to improve their athletic performance,often without knowing the dangers of failing to compensate(补偿)for the energy they consume in training,racing and their daily lives.Left untreated,medical experts say3EDs can damage an athlete’s bone health,immune system,and psychological health,as well as his athletic performance.4.What does the“cultural trap”in the text refer to?A.The defeat of eating disorders.B.The pursuit of a thinner figure.C.The idea of keeping daily meals.D.The mindset of climbing to the top.5.Why did Garnbret decide to post the message on the social platform?A.She used to fall into the cultural trap.B Her efforts to help dieters were in vain.C.Her achievements deserved to be shared.D.She wanted to receive support from DiGiulian.6.What may lead to REDs according to the text?A.Severe mental problems.B.The habit of overeating.C.Over-exercise for a long time.D.The poor athletic performance.7.What can be a suitable title for the text?A.The Road to a World ChampionB.Rising to Fame on Social MediaC.The Challenge of Climbing with REDsD.Warning against Cultural Trap in ClimbingCFrying French fries in space may be possible,according to a recent study by Aristotle University of Thessaloniki,Greece.On Earth,we have gravity and buoyancy(浮力).Gravity makes sure that the oil stays in the cooker,and buoyancy allows the bubbles that come out of the fries to travel upward so that the fries are cooked.In space,which is under microgravity,there is no buoyancy So scientists for long believed that frying wasn’t possible.The research team first designed a sealed container that could fry the potato safely in zero gravity and then took the researchers on a ride.The plane climbed up,and then,at a certain point,headed down just like a roller coaster.There were about20seconds of microgravity when the plane reached the highest point,during which the team did tests.To their surprise,the fries were cooked,and the bubbles were able to escape.When being fried,the water inside the potato turned into vapor(水蒸气).The vapor created pressure when released from the potato.The pressure inside the potato allowed the bubbles to go out and let the oil come in,according to the research paper.It showed that“frying can occur in space”.This isn’t the first attempt for scientists to deep-fry French fries in“space”.Early in2014,a group of researchers conducted studies under various gravities.The agency’s large centrifuge(离心机)can create artificial gravity from1to20g,with“g”referring to the gravitational acceleration at the surface of the Earth.It,has four arms and can spin fast.During the spin,things held by the arm are under centrifugal force,which is the source of artificial gravity.The fries were cooked under different gravities from1to9g.They discovered that the French fries had the most crispy(脆的)chips under3g.It’s interesting to mention that Jupiter’s gravity is2.4times that of Earth’s gravity.So,French fries may have the perfect taste if cooked on Jupiter,compared with other planets in the solar system.8.What may make frying French Fries possible in space?A.The release of bubbles.B.The transformation of gravity.C.The reduction of vapor.D.The accumulation of buoyance.9.Why did the plane head down like a roller coaster?A.To make a weightless sense.B.To get appropriate pressure.C.To test the seal of the container.D.To create experiment conditions.10.What is the purpose of mentioning the studies conducted in2014?A.To show the function of the centrifuge.B.To find common ground of various experiments.C.To prove the perfect taste of French fries on Jupiter.D.To offer more evidence about cooking French fries in space.11.Where is the text most probably taken from?A.A science magazine.B.A cook book.C.A food advertisement.D.A travel brochure.DFew social networking platforms are known for inspiring positive social change these days,but anInuit-developed app is helping local communities from Alaska to Greenland advance their set-determination.Named SIKU after the Inuktitut word for"sea ice",the app allows communities in the North to pull together traditional knowledge and scientific data to track changes m the environment,trace local wild foods,and make decisions about how to manage wildlife.Over the years,SIKU has stepped forward in its development.Recently,the elders saw that the platform could help address a familiar challenge:sharing knowledge with younger people who often have their noses in their phones.In2019,SIKU relaunched as a full-fledged social network—a platform where members can post photos and notes about wildlife sightings,hunts and sea ice conditions.The app operates in multiple languages,such as Inuktitut,Innu and Greenlandic.Since early2024,over25,000people from at least120communities have made more than75,000posts on SIKU.The app is also equipped with useful tools for life on the ice,including weather reports,sea ice forecasts,and other critical safety information.“When I go out on the land with family,we go a long distance,and the SIKU app can show which area we are in.It’s precise.”says Karen Nanook,who lives in Taloyoak,Nunavut.The data held in SIKU is abundant and up to date,and communities are already using the app to inform important decisions.In2021,for example,elders in Sanikiluaq were worried the local reindeer population had thinned,so the Hunters and Trappers Association used SIKU to survey hunters and look at recent reported harvest rates.The analysis led the association to temporarily close the hunt to relieve pressure on the population and to reintroduce hunting slowly once the number of reindeer increased.This decision shows how Inuit can use the technology in combination with traditional wildlife management.“It’s part science and part Inuit knowledge.It can work both ways,instead of one dominating the other,”says Arragutaina,a manager at the association.12.What do we know about SIKU?A.It traces data to do researches.B.It gets tryout all over the world.C.μallows people to post photos and notes.D It mainly focuses on traditional knowledge.13.What does the underlined word“full-fledged”in paragraph3mean?A.well-developed.B.Time-saving.C.Business-centered.D.Fancy-looking.14.What is Karen’s attitude towards SIKU?A.Favorable.B.Doubtful.C.Intolerant.D.Curious15.What is the text mainly about?A.SIKU advocates the Inuit tradition.B.SIKU promotes technological advances.C.SIKU tracks changes in the environment.D SIKU helps local communities make decisions.第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分)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。

Note that there is one word more than you need.A.unanticipatedB.momentsC.evolvedD.basicallyE.exploredF.clearlyG.navigateH.ritualsI.integral J.access K.inspiringBoat of PowerDragon boat racing began in China more than2,000years ago as part of a cultural community event to memorize the ancient poet,Qu Yuan.The traditional holiday was a time to perform31for good fortune and well-being,and to drive off evil spirits.Over time,dragon boat racing32into a global sport.The Toronto-based Dragons Abreast team stands out at this sport for a few reasons.For one, the79-member team includes people ranging in age from30to93.Prior to joining Dragons Abreast, some members hadn't been part of a sports team since childhood and wouldn't have described themselves as particularly athletic ones.And what has brought these women together is something 33---living with breast cancer.The breast cancer survivors on this team are in the same boat in every way.For many,being part of a community that knows34how life changes after breast cancer is as beneficial as the physical gains. The team offers a supportive space to35all the complexities of survivorship.“I was so surprised at how36the racing was for me,”says Liz Johnston Hill,the race coordinator for Dragons Abreast.“It's almost overwhelming how people encourage,no matter what.”Being out on the water and connecting to the environment is an important aspect of dragon boating for many of the team members.They talk about how it provides37of peace and encourages mindfulness,something we could all use more of in our lives.Outside of dragon boat,the members are a(n)38part of each other's life.“We've all been through39the same thing in our various ways,”says the race coordinator Liz Johnston Hill.While the number of breast cancer survivor teamsgrows,barriers to the sport remain such as cost,time,40to water and practice facilities and the lack of cultural and language diversity.But there are ongoing efforts to introduce more people living with breast cancer to dragon boat.II.Reading ComprehensionSection ADirections: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.Like anything built by evolution,the human body has many downsides,teeth without exception. Adult humans only get one set of teeth,which must last about60years.However,a(n)41of poverty,sugar-rich diets and poor hygiene means2.5bn people globally suffer from tooth decay,in which acid produced by mouth-living bacteria eats away the hard enamel(牙釉质)that42the outside of a tooth,leading to further infection and damage.Once decay has set in,all a dentist can do is to fill the gap with artificial filling.But in a paper published in Cell,Hannele Ruohola-Baker,a stem-cell biologist at the University of Washington,and her colleagues offer a possible43.Stem cells have the44to turn themselves into any other type of cell in the body.It may soon be possible,the researchers claim,to use those45cells to regrow a tooth's enamel naturally.The first step was to work out how enamel is produced.As enamel-making cells,known as ameloblasts,disappear soon after a person's adult teeth have finished growing,the researchers46 samples of tissue from human foetuses(胚胎),which contain plenty of functioning ameloblasts. 47,they checked to see which genes were especially active in the enamel-producing cells.It turned out that genes designed to bind to calcium were particularly busy.48that information,Dr Ruohola-Baker and her colleagues next checked to see whether the stem cells could be persuaded to49ameloblasts.The team devised various drugs designed to activate the genes expressed in functioning ameloblasts.That worked,with the engineered ameloblasts producing the same proteins as the natural sort.For now,the work is more concept than a medical treatment.The next step is to boost enamel production further,with a view to50beginning clinical trials.The hope is that,one day,medical versions of the team's findings could be used as biological implants,to51a patient's decayed teeth.Stem-cell-based therapies are not the only ones heading to clinical trials.Another treatment,known as biomimetic repair,involves rebuilding the tooth crown using synthetic(人工合成的)proteins,which are similar,but not quite52,to human enamel.The proteins could be included in toothpaste and even cough drops.But synthetic formulations can be less53than human enamel.It will take time for either technology to become reality.One question is how durable the enamel made by stem-cell-derived ameloblasts is.Another is how best to deliver the stem cells to a patient’s mouth.But these findings are54.As any dentist will tell you,prevention is better than cure. 55,a better cure would be always welcome.There is no doubt that this research offers a new prospect for future dental care.bination B.absence C.application D.coincidence42.A.contains B.coats C.floats D.fills43.A.procedure B.alternative C.variation D.recipe44.A.opportunity B.obligation C.capacity D.intention45.A.changeable B.noticeable plicated D.practical46.A.appealed to B.objected to C.applied to D.turned to47.A.Then B.Therefore C.Otherwise D.Still48.A.Pleased by B.Puzzled by C.Armed with D.Covered with49.A.transform into B.break down C.speed up D.respond to50.A.exclusively B.permanently C.inevitably D.eventually51.A.resemble B.reform C.regenerate D.recycle52.A.identical B.subject C.relevant D.unique53.A.accessible B.diverse C.durable D.influential54.A.fulfilling B.stimulating C.initiating D.promising55.A.Likewise B.Furthermore C.Nevertheless D.InsteadSection BDirections:Read the following three passages.Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements.For each of them there are four choices marked A,B,C and D.Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.(A)When Steven Spielberg was a kid growing up in the1950s in Arizona,watching westerns on his family's20-inch black-and-white TV,he would climb right up to the screen,as if to surround himself with the image.He also wished he could see these moving pictures in color.So he searched through his family's collection of slides quickly,having learned that by holding one film or another up to the television screen he could turn grayed-out western skies blue,or the ground to a realistic-looking green. Sometimes his mom walked in,and she saw him holding these slides up to both of his eyes,right next to the TV set.Often,she would say,“You're going to burn your eyes out!”Spielberg's mom,like all the other50s moms who said the same thing,was wrong about that.But we all know what she must have been thinking:Who is this child?If you've seen even just one Steven Spielberg movie in the past50years or so---Jaws Schindler's Lisl, E.T---you have some sense of who this child grew up to be.And when you see his new film,The Fabelmans,a work of astonishing vividness that's drawn from his own family's story,you'll know even more.Movies have been around for roughly130years;Spielberg's career has covered more than a third of that.Yet The Fabelmans hardly feels like a late-career movie.It's a jetway for a new beginning.Not every75-year-old filmmaker makes a movie like this.Of the ambitious young guys who remade Hollywood in the early1970s,Spielberg is one of the few still making vital pictures at a consistent clip. Yet his career is extraordinary in any context.He's made some box-office disappointments,but naming a badly made Spielberg film is hard,probably because there isn't one.No living filmmaker can match his devotion to craftsmanship,to finding new ways of showing us things we think we’ve seen a million times before.56.How did Spielberg's mom feel when she saw her son's behavior in front of the TV set?A.Proud but upset.B.Surprised but supportive.C.Annoyed and desperate.D.Worried and confused.57.Which of the following is NOT a reason why Spielberg's career is regarded as extraordinary?A.He showed great interest in filming at a very young ageB.His career covers more than a third of the movie history.C.He is committed to filming ordinary things from new perspectives.D.His films are all well-made despite some box-office disappointments58.What can be inferred about Spielberg's new film The Fabelmans?A.It's the most outstanding film he has ever made in his career.B.It has been integrated with part of his growing experience.C.It represents a totally brand new type of film theme.D.It established Spielberg as the most influential filmmaker.59.Which of the following is the best title for the passage?A.Curiosity makes success.B.Daring to be different.C.A giant in filmmaking.D.A ground-making new film.(B)“A reader lives a thousand lives before he dies.The man who never reads lives only one.”George R.R.Martin,Author of“A Game of Thrones”What do these4guys share that you don’t?BILL GATES MARK ZUCKERBERG JEFF BEZOS WARREN BUFFETT No,it's not their shoe size.They read.At least two books a month,They're also among the top10richest people in the world.

Claims that Earth’s magnetic field is responsible for climate change are widespread online,but scientists say the theory has no basis.“At this time there aren't any credible mechanisms that could make it a possibility,”says Gavin Schmidt,a climatologist in New York."It's not that we're ruling out magnetic effects on climate without thinking about it,we collectively have thought about it,and it's been found devoid.There are three north poles on Earth:true north,geomagnetic north,and magnetic north.True north is a fixed position on the globe that points directly towards the geographic North Pole.But geomagnetic north,currently located over Canada's Ellesmere Island,is not a fixed point---it represents the northern axis(轴)of Earth's magnetosphere and shifts from time to time.Magnetic north corresponds to magnetic field lines and is what your compass locates.During a pole reversal,Earth's magnetic north and south poles exchange locations.This happens on average every300,000years or so,but the last reversal occurred around780.000years ago.Some scientists have assumed that reversals and the corresponding decrease in strength of the magnetic field could cause a big problem that increased solar radiation was able to enter Earth’s atmosphere,altering ozone levels and driving global climate shifts and extinctions.Kirk Johnson,a director of the Smithsonian's National Museum of Natural History,has spent much of his career studying the extinction of dinosaurs.While analyzing fossil records and timelines surrounding his research,Johnson zeroed in on the magnetic reversal that occurred around66.3million years ago.Deep ocean samples revealed significant climate change around66.3million years ago.But this also coincides with a large volcanic eruption in India called the Deccan volcanism,which produced some of the longest lava(熔岩)flows on Earth.“We've always owed that transition to the carbon dioxide released by the Deccan volcanism and the increase of greenhouse gases,”says Johnson.“There are two things happening:The magnetic field is changing,the Deccan volcanism is happening,and there's climate warming.So that would be an example of coincidental climate change.”63.The underlined word“devoid”in paragraph2probably means.A.fruitlessB.obviousC.reasonableD.misleading64.Which north pole on earth is involved in the pole reversal?A.True north.B.Geomagnetic north.C.Magnetic north.D.Geographic north65.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A.The geomagnetic events are to blame for the climate change.B.The decrease in strength of the magnetic field resulted in extinction.C.The magnetic field is changing all the time with the climate warming.D.Internal forces which produce Earth's magnetic field can alter over time66.Which of the following statements does Kirk Johnson most probably agree with?A.A magnetic reversal doesn't necessarily cause climate change.B.A magnetic reversal is accompanied with significant climate changeC.The extinction of the dinosaurs is due to the magnetic reversal.D.Climate change is not relevant to the carbon dioxide emission.Section CDirections:Read the passage carefully.Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box.Each sentence can be used only once.Note that there are two more sentences than you need.A.While these villages possess undeniable fascination,many remain underdeveloped.B.This effort includes the knowledge exchange between the students and local villagersC.Both were selected for revitalization efforts led by the Village Revitalization Team.D.In Sukarara,a local tradition requires girls master weaving skills before marriageE.They decide to be a bridge between tradition and progress,united for their growthF.It's about preserving the cultural heritage and ensuring traditions being passed downStudents’Journey to Empower Rural HeritageFrom Aug.18to22a team of15Tsinghua University students,representing diverse backgrounds from China,South Korea,Malaysia,and Indonesia,set foot on an overseas research exploration focusing on rural revitalization(振兴)in Indonesian villages,particularly within Nusa Tenggara Barat(NTB).With the diverse cultural heritage,Indonesia is home to over83,000villages,each radiating its own charm and character.67The research mission took the students to Sukarara and Sade villages,two of NTB's tourist destinations.68Sukarara and Sade are a world apart from the busy cities to which most of us are accustomed.The villages are a living test to Indonesia's rich culture and its devotion to preserving traditions.The Revitalizing these villages goes beyond mere economic development.69The weaving skills and architectural techniques of Sukarara and Sade villages are not only beautiful,but they are also an inseparable part to the identity of these communities.It's essential that they strike a balance between progress and preservation.As the journey came to an end,the students carry with them not only the memories of their experiences there,but also to make a positive impact on these remarkable places. 70They are optimistic that Indonesian villages can experience meaningful development,ultimately leading to increased opportunities for employment and an improved quality of life.IV.Summary WritingDirections:Read the following passage.Summarize the main idea and the main point(s)of the passage in no more e your own words as far as possible.How to Be a Better BossWorkplaces have changed dramatically over the past few years.Teams have become more isolated owing to remote work.Technology has brought great benefits but also constant interruptions,from endless Zoom calls to message flows on Slack.With each shift,the job of the manager has become harder.Many report feeling burnt-out,overloaded and confused.Yet in real life everyone suffers when management is bad and benefits when it is good Research based on a long-running survey of management techniques has found that well-managed firms tend to be more productive,export more and spend more on research and development.So the prize for better management is big.But how to obtain it?Read enough management books and you might conclude that managers need to change their personality thoroughly,becoming either Machiavelli's prince or a Marvel superhero.However,study successful managers,and more practical lessons can be drawn.One is to be clear about a firm's processes.Managers should make clear the purpose of a team,what a meeting should achieve and who will take a decision.Meeting agendas at GSK,a British drugs firm,clearly say whether an item is for awareness,to gather participants'input or intended to make a decision.Such clarity means that everyone knows what they are doing,and why.Management isn't all about piling up tasks,meetings or processes.A second lesson is that managers can add value by deleting.Sparing workers from pointless meetings,emails and projects frees them to concentrate on the work that fattens the bottom line.At the start of the year,Shopify,an e-commerce firm,deleted12,000repeated meetings from its employees’calendars.The useful ones were eventually added back.But the firm says that meetings are down by14%since the mass deletion while productivity has gone up by a similar amount.V.TranslationDirections:Translate the following sentences into English,using the words given in the brackets.72.穿着睡衣去超市不太合适，不是吗?(It)73.这副山水画的灵感来源于王维的诗集。
