For example, a tired father was watching his two daughters eat fried chicken, but he didn't order anything, telling his daughters that he was not hungry, (30) __________ more money in his pocket.

Mark Twain published the novel in 1876, which centered on a smart naughty young boy living in a town along the Mississippi River. The Adventures of Tom Sawyer marked the further development of Mark Twain realism.An orphan, Tom Sawyer lived with his Aunt Polly and half brother, Sid, in St. Petersburg, Missouri; the fictional town was based on Hannibal, Missouri. The first few chapters highlighted Tom's troubled tendencies. He angered his aunt by eating jam, and then he got in a fight with another boy. As punishment for his various misdeeds, Aunt Polly ordered him to whitewash the fence. However, Tom managed to convince other children that whitewashing was fun, and they ended up giving him various items for a turn at the fence. Later in the book Tom went to the cemetery with Huckleberry Finn, a wanderer whose father was a heavy drinker. They came across three grave robbers, including Injun Joe and Dr. Robinson. The two men got into a fight, and Injun Joe murdered the doctor. Although Tom and Huckleberry promised never to tell anyone what they had seen, Tom eventually charged the escaped Indian Joc.At one point, Tom, Huckleberry, and a third boy decided to run away from home and became pirates (海盗).While on an island in the Mississippi River, they discovered that people thought they had died. The three dramatically reappeared during their funeral services. Tom and Huckleberry then decided to look for buried treasure in an abandoned house. The boys were forced to hide when Injun Joe and a partner arrived to bury their own treasure there. However, the two men then came across a gold storage in the house and decided to hide it elsewhere. One night Huck followed them, hoping to find the gold. When he overheard their plan to attack the Widow Douglas, Huck got help, and the crime was prevented. Tom later went on a picnic with his classmates. While exploring a cave, they became lost, and Tom later realized that the gold was likely to be in the cave, and he and Huckleberry discovered it.56. Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?A. The story outlines the Adventures of Tom Sawyer.B. The story describes Mark Twain's childhood.C. The story tells the story of Huckleberry.D. This passage comments on Mark Twain's novels.57. What is the underlined part of the second paragraph trying to illustrate?A. Tom's helpfulness.B. Tom's honesty.C. Tom's friendliness.D. Tom's naughtiness.58. What's the correct order of the happenings in the third story?a. Huck followed those two.b. Then Tom and Huckleberry found gold.c. Tom and Huckleberry decided to search for buried treasure.d. Tom, Huckleberry and another boy ran away from home.A. a-c-b-dB. d-c-a-bC. b-a-d-cD. c-b-a-d59. In the author's eyes, what kind of novel is the Adventures of Tom Sawyer?A. An interesting adventure novel.B. The most humorous story of children.C. The greatest works of children's literature.D. The most popular historical novel.(B)⏹ 1. Star Wars: From a Certain Point of View- Return of the JediTo mark the 40th anniversary of the release of Return of the Jedi, this selection sees 40 scenes fromthe movie recreated through the eyes of a supporting character, from robots to Mon Mothma.So, among the 40 writers and artists contributing, we have Olivie Blake giving a glimpse into the mind of Emperor Palpatine, Mary Kenney telling the story of Wicket the Ewok's dream of a quiet day onthe forest moon of Endor and Charlie Jane Anders looking into that terrifying open mouth in the desert ofTatooine.⏹ 2. Creation Node by Stephen BaxterStephen Baxter is the author of one of my all-time favourite moments in a sci-fi novel: the oceansclose over the top of Everest in Flood. I think of his drowned Earth relatively often - it is an imageburned into my brain. His latest book sounds equally interesting and I'll definitely be giving it a read. Setin 2255, it follows the discovery of an object called Planet Nine, which a woman named Salma spotsfrom her spaceship.It's not a planet, or the "ninth" of anything; it was briefly believed to be a black hole, but then it sends a message that there is something waiting on its surface. Meanwhile, a quasar(类星体)has appeared and is heating up the solar system. Lots to deal with, then.⏹ 3. Starter Villain by John Scalzi⏹This is the sort of sci-fi novel that needs to be described as a joke, I feel. It's set on Earth today and sees divorced substitute teacher Charlie inherit his long-lost late uncle Jake's business. Unfortunately forCharlie, he also inherits his uncle's enemies. We are also promised intelligent, talking spy cats andunionised dolphins - what's not to like?⏹ 4. Land of Milk and Honey by C. Pam ZhangI loved Zhang's first novel, How Much of These Hills Is Gold, set in the 19th-century Old West. Ihighly, highly recommend it: Zhang is a phenomenal writer. Her second book moves the action to thenear future, where food crops are disappearing and a smog is spreading. Hoping to escape her troubledreality, a chef takes a job in a mountaintop settlement for the global elite (精英) and discovers plans toreshape the world.⏹ 5. Edge of Here by Kelechi OkaforWhat a treat this sounds: a short story collection to dip into in this busiest of months. Okafor, who is host of the Say Your Mind podcast, sets out to explore contemporary Black womanhood, but sets herstories in a Black Mirror version of the near future. There's one in which you can experience someoneelse's emotions through a chip in your brain, one where you can view bits of a distant relative's life withhelp from your DNA.60. If you want to know the life of a cook, which novel would you choose?A. Edge of Here by Kelechi OkaforB. Starter Villain by John ScalziC. Creation Node by Stephen BaxterD. Land of Milk and Honey by C. Pam Zhang61. What does the underlined phrase mean in the first paragraph?A. A non-leading role.B. A viewer.C. A directorD. A writing style.62. Which of the following is true according to the passage?A. In Fiction 2, the Solar System is getting colder.B. In Fiction 3, a single teacher inherited his uncle's business.C. In Fiction 4, the author described events in the remote arca.D. In Fiction 5, you can experience black life through brain chips.(C)In recent years, the International Space Field set off a new round of exploration craze, hoping to further master the space secrets and resources. Countries are busy developing rockets and satellites, developing manned space technology, formulating plans to explore the moon and Mars, and conquering space "One step ahead?".When engineers develop a spacecraft, they ask a few key questions that guide their process, says David Klaus, a professor of aerospace engineering at the University of Colorado Boulder, who studies risk assessment and human spaceflight. They are, he explains, "What do we want to do? What does it take to do it? What can go wrong? And what can we do to reduce the chance of the bad things going wrong?" These questions seem simple enough, but the answers are essentialWhen NASA, SpaceX, Blue Origin or anyone else considers sending humans into space, the vehicle they build must do three things. First, it has to accommodate the crew members by meeting their basic needs such as oxygen, food and water. Second, it should allow them to accomplish mission objectives. Lastly, it must protect the people onboard and on the ground from the risks of spaceflight and reentry. Sometimes meeting one need introduces new risks. The crew needs to breathe, of course, but it was high-pressure tanks of liquid oxygen that caused an explosion on Apollo 13, and it was the fuel powering an oxygen generator that sparked a fire onboard the Mir space station in 1997.Not only do astronauts float through a near vacuum (真空) filled with radiation, but in low-Earth orbit, where the International Space Station (ISS) operates, crews have to deal with a growing cloud of debris (碎片) circling Earth, which are usually from old satellites. The ISS's debris protective covering can absorb impacts from particles smaller than half an inch, but between 1999 and 2022, the station had to fire pushers 32 times to avoid contact with larger objects. A single hit would be dangerous; at speeds of 17,500 miles per hour, even something the size of a softball can cause severe damage.What is the point of looking decades into space and struggling to explore the vastness of the universe? The development of the space industry has brought humans many benefits, the most important of which is the spread of information. The cell phone signal and TV signal people use now are all benefiting from the development of the space industry. The ultimate goal of mankind is to go deeper into space, and to explore more unknown worlds, that is, the Moon, Mars and beyond, and what humanity is eager to achieve is a common home of freedom and equality.63. Why did the writer mention the explosion on Apollo 13 in Paragraph 3 and the fire onboard the Mir space station?A. To explain the high risks of the space industry.B. To show the disadvantages of the space travel.C. To prove the unexpected risks of the spaceflight process.D. To describe the new risks involved in meeting the requirements.64. What is the main idea of the fourth paragraph?A. The space environment itself piles on danger.B. Any misstep on a space mission is fatal.C. It is very difficult to complete the space mission.D. Space engineers work hard to clean up space debris.65. What is the ultimate goal of human exploration of space?A. More unknown planets and stars.B. Freedom and equality of human beings.C. More protection against human diseases.D. Space secrets and endless resources.66. What does the underlined phrase in the last paragraph mean?A. Studying space for countless years.B. Living in space for many years.C. Exploring space for some ten years.D. Observing space for several ten years.Section CA. While it may sound like an advantage to many, people with this rare condition often find their unusual abilitystressful.B. But in a new study researchers demonstrated for the first time how this effect occurs in the brain.C. In the future, with the deepening of brain science research, human beings will eventuallyunlock the secrets of the brain.D. This process improves access to relevant information, without old memories interfering.E. When we obtain new information, the brain automatically attempts to make it into existing information byforming associations.F. The outside world is a judgment of the brain, but humans just don't realize it.Is Human Brain Too Full?The brain is a seemingly endless library, whose shelves house our most precious memories as well as our lifetime's knowledge. But is there a point where it reaches capacity? The answer is no, because brains are more complicated than that. Instead of just crowding in, old information is sometimes pushed out of the brain for new memories to form. Previous behavioral studies have shown that learning new information can lead to forgetting. (67) __________.In daily life, forgetting actually has clear advantages. Imagine, for instance, that you lost your bank card. The new card you receive will come with a new personal identification number (PIN). Each time you remember the new PIN, you gradually forget the old one. (68) __________ And most of us may sometimes feel the frustration of having old memories interfere with new, relevant memories. Consider trying to remember where you parked your car in the same car park you were at a week earlier. This type of memory (where you are trying to remember new, but similar information) is particularly vulnerable to interference.(69) __________ When we search information, both relevant and irrelevant information will appear. The majority of previous research has focused on how we learn and remember new information. But current studies are beginning to place greater emphasis on the conditions under which we forget, as its importance begins to be more appreciated.A very small number of people arc able to remember almost every detail of their life. (70) __________ In a sense, forgetting is how our brains categorize memories, so the most relevant memories are ready to be taken out. Normal forgetting may even be a safety mechanism to ensure our brain doesn't become too full.IV. Summary WritingDirections: Read the following passage. Summarize the main idea and the main point(s) of the passage in no more than 60 words. Use your own words as far as possible.71.ChatGPT Helps People a LotIn real life, robot customer service in various applications arc broadly similar to ChatGPT's Al products. It is ChatGPT's ability to learn the most with the highest level of intelligence that has made it a global hit. At the end of November 2022, AI research lab OpenAI launched AI chat software ChatGPT. So what exactly can ChatGPT do, and how can it help us ordinary people?First, chat with ChatGPT as if it were your friend when you're bored, and it will constantly revise its parameters (参数)and behavior with your advice and guidance. So the more you talk to it, the more it knows what you want, and the more it responds to you. Take travel as an example. While there are a lot of travel recommendation sites out there right now, they can't be customized to the individual, but you can ask ChatGPT for very specific information to get suggestions.Second, ChatGPT can be used when you want to create content but lack ideas. It can open your mind to ideas as well as create ideas for you. Children in the growth always like to listen to parents tell new stories, and story-telling gives a lot of parents a headache. What should we do when we run out of storybooks? ChatGPT is a great story generator, which generates a whole new story, as many as you want, based on the themes and characters you provide. It's perfectThird, let ChatGPT help you out when you're not sure how to get started with a paper, or an article. Of course, it doesn't always provide the right content, so we can learn from its framework, and it's much easier to fill in the content from there. Enter information about the type, title, column name, data, and so on, and ChatGPT will generate the table with one click. You can add columns and rows and do in-table calculations.According to ChatGPT's own answer, it's just an unconscious computer program. It can carry on self-active learning and realize task transfer under the regular instruction. Docs the answer ChatGPT gives you have to be the right answer? For conscious humans, it might be better to pick from all the possible answers.V. Translation72. 网络社交并不能代替现实生活。

orunfinished 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 read.(A)Katalin Kariko and Drew Weissman,who together identified a slight chemical change to messenger RNA,were awarded the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine this year.Dr.Karikó,the13l woman to win the prize,had come to the United States from Hungary two decades earlier when her research program there ran out of money.She was preoccupied by mRNA,which provides instructions to cells to make proteins.Defying the decades-old belief that mRNA was clinically unusable,she hold the view that it would stimulate medical innovations.She and Dr.Weissman had their first chance mecting over a copy machine at the University of Pennsylvania in1998.At the time,Dr.Weissman was desperate for new approaches to a vaccine(疫苗)against H.IV.,which had long proved impossible to defend against.A physician who had tried and failed for years to develop a treatment for AIDS,he wondered if he and Dr. Kariko could team up to make an H.I.V.vaccine.For years,they were at a loss.Mice vaccinated with mRNA became inactive.Countless experiments failed.They wandered down one dead end after another.But eventually,the scientists discovered that cells protect their own mRNA with a specific chemical modification(修饰).So they tried making the same change to mRNA manufactured in the lab before vaccinating it into cells.It worked.At first,other scientists were largely uninterested in taking up that new approach to vaccination.But two biotech companies soon took notice:Moderna,in the United States,and BioNTech,in Germany.Then the coronavirus emerged.Almost instantly,Drs.Kariko and Weissman's work came together with several factors of different research to put vaccine makers ahead of the game in developing shot.Brian Ferguson,an immunologist at the University of Cambridge,said.“The work of Katalin Kariko and Drew Weissman in the years prior to2020prevented tens of millions of deaths and helped the world recover from the worst pandemic in a century.They richly deserve this recognition."56.The underlined word"defying”(paragraph2)is closest in meaning to"_________.A.challengingB.confirmingC.re-emphasizingD.stating57.Which of the following statements is TRUE about Dr.Kariko and Dr.Weissman's research?A.They teamed up for the treatment for AIDS in Hungary.B.They protected their mRNA with a chemical modification.C.They persevered until they made a change to lab-made mRNA,D,They manufactured mRNA in mice despite their countless failures.58.According to Brian Ferguson,Dr.Kariko and Dr.Weissman deserve the recognition becauseA.they took no notice of others'ignoranceB.they caught attention of two biotech companiesC.their work helped avoid the loss of countless livesD.their work prevented the outbreak of the pandemic59.Which of the following is the best title for the passage?A.Chemical Changes Identified in the PandemicB.Approaches Adopted to Defend Against H.I.VC.Nobel Prize Awarded to Covid Vaccine PioneersD.mRNA Manufactured in a University

a legal case against Meta,the parent company of Facebook,Instagram,WhatsApp and Messenger,insisting that the company knowingly used features on its platforms to cause children to overuse them.The accusations in the lawsuit raise a deeper question about behavior:Are young people becoming addicted to social media and the internet?Here's what the research has found.②David Greenfield,a psychologist and founder of the Center for Internet and Technology Addiction in West Hartford,Conn.,said the devices tempt users with some powerful approaches. One is“intermittent reinforcement,"which creates the idea that a user could get a reward at any time.But when the reward comes is unpredictable.Adults are easily influenced,he noted,but young pcople are particularly at risk,because the brain regions that are involved in resisting temptation and reward are not nearly as developed in children and teenagers as in adults. Moreover,the adolescent brain is especially accustomed to social connections,and“social media is all a perfect opportunity to connect with other people.”③For many years,the scientific community typically defined addiction in relation to substances, such as drugs,and not behaviors,such as gambling or internet use.That has gradually changed.In 2013,the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders,the official reference for mental health conditions,introduced the idea of internet gaming addiction.④A subsequent study explored broadening the definition to"internet addiction."The author suggested further exploring diagnostic criteria and the language,for instance,noting that terms like“problematic use”and even the word"internet"were open to broad interpretation,given the many forms the information and its delivery can take.⑤Dr.Michael Rich,the director of the Digital Wellness Lab at Boston Children's Hospital,said he discouraged the use of the word"addiction"because the internet,if used effectively and with limits,was not merely useful but also essential to everyday life.⑥Greenfield agreed that there clearly are valuable uses for the internet and that the definition of how much is too much can vary.But he said there also were obvious cases where immoderate use disturbs school,sleep and other vital aspects of a healthy life.Too many young consumers"can't put it down,"he said."The internet,including social media like Meta,are the drugs affecting the mind.”63.What was Meta accused of?A.It added problematic features to its platform.B.It started a discussion to mislead young people.C.It tempted children to use social media too much.D.It conducted illegal research on its parent company.64.According to David Greenfield,users tend to be addicted to social media and the internet due to_______.A.their under-developed brainB.the random pattern of rewardsC.their desire to be socially connectedD.the possibility of escaping from reality65.What can be concluded about the study introduced in Paragraph4?A.Addiction is something about behaviors instead of substances.B.The online language can be interpreted from a broad perspective.C.Current diagnostic criteria of"internet addiction”isn't satisfactory.D.There should be an agreement on the definition of the word"internet".66.Dr.Michael Rich and David Grecnfield both agree thatA.proper use of the internet does good to childrenB.the internet is to blame for disturbing healthy lifeC.there are cases against immoderate use of the internetD.the word"addiction"is improperly used on the internetSection CDirections:Read the following passage.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.Do I even want them?On whose clock?B.Why should you challenge that secret timeline of milestones in your head?C.This time,quitting her job led to her first album,television appearances and sold-out shows.D.Instead of feeling pressure to hit life events on someone else's timeline,maybe it's fine to make our own.E.People are feeling like they're falling behind,when in fact they're probably doing exactly what they should.F.She spent years feeling like an outsider and failure as she watched her peers rise in school and work figuring she'd never catch up.Defining Success on Your Own Terms“You go to college right out of high school.That's the rule,right?”says Nikki Ivey,a sales trainer and consultant outside Jacksonville,Fla.However,it's not the case for her.Actually,she got her undergraduate degree at28.________67________One by one,she missed the milestones she'd envisioned in some imaginary dream life: earning six figures by30,buying a house by35.Then she hit one—attaining a high-level executive position in a company.She didn't love the job.She did love sitting around the dinner table laughing with her kids."________68________"she asked herself.She ended up leaving the job,and started to wonder about all those milestones.Danielle Ponder had a career as a lawyer before dedicating herself to singing full time. Working as a public defender in Rochester,N.Y.,Danielle Ponder would frequently Google, "Did anyone make it after the age of35?”At one point,she quit her day job,only to return a year and a half later,due to the pandemic and disappointing bookings.On the last day of2021,five days before her40birthday,she tried again._________69________“I don't know if I could survive this happening to me at19,"she says.She thinks her insecure teen self wouldn'thave handled the stress of the public eye well.It can be hard to make a transition later in life._______70_______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.Why companies are hiring'prompt engineers?With the new generative AI tools,like ChatGPT,anyone can put in a prompt—type in a fewwords and get a result.But that doesn't mean that the results will be relevant or accurate.The key is putting in the right prompt.That's why some businesses are now hiring prompt engineers-people with the skills,background and practice to talk to so-called large-language Al systems effectively-and why many people expect prompt engineering to be a desirable skill for many kinds of workers to add to their resumés.In general,the more detailed the request,the closer the response will come to what the user is looking for.But the most effective prompt engineering goes beyond adding detail.For one thing,adding the right detail to get the best response is crucial.Also,there are many ways to guide how an AI system presents the information it finds,depending on the goal—telling it to write in a certain style or for a certain audience,for instance.Each tool also has particular capabilities and limitations that users can learn to tackle.And the best results often come from an extended conversation with the Al,reacting to what it produces and asking for refinements.Even for people applying to jobs that don't clearly mention prompt engineering,having this skill could become essential for all sorts of roles.Art directors could use generative AI to outline ideas,and marketers could use it to develop new slogans.Software engineers could use it to find problems with their wyers could use it to research a piece of law.This is going to be a foundational skill that all of us need to know.The through line is when you learn a new skill,you can take it in any direction you like.第Ⅱ卷(共40分)V.TranslationDirections:Translate the following sentences into English,using the words given in the brackets.72.参观这家博物馆能带你回到20世纪30年代。

If you're driving in winter, slow down and make sure to rent or come with a reliable SUV.● Snowslides are likely to occur on Backcountry routes, so only advanced skiers should take to this off-the-map area.● Whistler's wilderness is home to many black and grizzly bears. Keep your distance and do not feed them.21. What are active travelers recommended to do in Whistler?A. Bike up the mountains.B. Host ski competitions.C. Go shopping at the malls.D. Visit museum exhibitions.22. Which of the following is the most popular among travelers?A. Whistler Village.B. Lost Lake Park.C. The Marketplace.D. Whistler Train Wreck.23. What are travelers prohibited from doing in Whistler?A. Driving a rented SUV.B. Feeding grizzly bears.C. Exploring the wilderness.D. Skiing on Backcountry routes.BI used to believe that only words could catch the essence of the human soul. The literary works contained such distinct stories that they shaped the way we saw the world. Words were what composed the questions we sought to uncover and the answers to those questions themselves. Words were everything.That belief changed.In an ordinary math class, my teacher posed a simple question: What's 0.99 rounded to the nearest whole number? Easy. When rounded to the nearest whole number,0.99=1. Somehow, I thought even though 0.99 is only 0.01 away from 1, there's still a 0.01 difference. That means even if two things are only a little different, they are still different, so doesn't that make them completely different?My teacher answered my question by presenting another equation (等式): 1 = 0.9, which could also be expressed as 1=0.999999…repeating itself without ever ending.There was something mysterious but fascinating about the equation. The left side was unchangeable, objective: it contained a number that ended. On the right was something endless,a number repeating itself limitless times. Yet, somehow, these two opposed things were connected by an equal sign.Lying in bed, I thought about how much the equation paralleled our existence. The left side of the equation represents that sometimes life itself is so unchangeable and so clear. The concrete, whole number of the day when you were born and the day when you would die. But then there is that gap in between life and death. The right side means a time and space full of limitless possibilities, and endless opportunities into the open future.So that's what life is. Objective but imaginative. Unchangeable but limitless. Life is an equation with two sides that balances itself out. Still, we can't ever truly seem to put the perfect words to it. So possibly numbers can express ideas as equally well as words can. For now, let's leave it at that: 1 =0.999999…and live a life like it.24. What does the author emphasize about words in paragraph 1?A. Their wide variety.B. Their literary origins.C. Their distinct sounds.D. Their expressive power.25. What made the author find the equation fascinating?A. The repetition of a number.B. The way two different numbers are equal.C. The question the teacher raised.D. The difference between the two numbers.26. Which of the following can replace the underlined word“paralleled”in paragraph 6?A. Measured.B. Composed.C. Mirrored.D. Influenced.27. What is a suitable title for the text?A. The Perfect EquationB. Numbers Build EquationsC. An Attractive QuestionD. Words Outperform NumbersC“Why does grandpa have ear hair?”Just a few years ago my child was so curious to know“why”and“how”that we had to cut off her questions five minutes before bedtime. Now a soon-to-be fourth grader, she says that she dislikes school because“it's not fun to learn.”I am shocked. As a scientist and parent, I have done everything I can to promote a love of learning in my children. Where did I go wrong?My child's experience is not unique. Developmental psychologist Susan Engel notes thatcuriosity —defined as“spontaneous(自发的) investigation and eagerness for new information”—drops dramatically in children by the fourth grade.In Wonder: Childhood and the Lifelong Love of Science, Yale psychologist Frank C. Keil details the development of wonder ——a spontaneous passion to explore, discover, and understand. He takes us on a journey from its early development, when wonder drives common sense and scientific reasoning, through the drop-off in wonder that often occurs, to the trap of life in a society that devalues wonder.As Keil notes, children are particularly rich in wonder while they are rapidly developing causal mechanisms(因果机制) in the preschool and early elementary school years. They are sensitive to the others' knowledge and goals, and they expertly use their desire for questioning.Children's questions, particularly those about“why”and “how,” support the development of causal mechanisms which can be used to help their day-to-day reasoning.Unfortunately, as Keil notes, “adults greatly underestimate young children's causal mechanisms.”In the book, Wonder, Keil shows that we can support children's ongoing wonder by playing games with them as partners, encouraging question-asking, and focusing on their abilities to reason and conclude.A decline in wonder is not unavoidable. Keil reminds us that we can accept wonder as a desirable positive quality that exists in everyone. I value wonder deeply, and Wonder has given me hope by proposing a future for my children that will remain wonder-full.28. What is a common problem among fourth graders?A. They upset their parents too often.B. They ask too many strange questions.C. Their love for fun disappears quickly.D. Their desire to learn declines sharply.29. What can be inferred about children's causal mechanisms in paragraph 4?A. They control children's sensitivity.B. They slightly change in early childhood.C. They hardly support children's reasoning.D. They develop through children's questioning.30. How can parents support children's ongoing wonder according to Keil?A. By monitoring their games.B. By welcoming inquiring minds.C. By estimating their abilities.D. By providing reasonable conclusions.31. What is the text?A. A book review.B. A news report.C. A research paper.D. A children 's story.DEach year, the world loses about 10 million hectares of forest—an area about the size of Iceland because of cutting down trees. At that rate, some scientists predict the world's forests could disappear in 100 to 200 years. To handle it, now researchers at Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) have pioneered a technique to generate wood-like plant materials in a lab.This makes it possible to“grow”a wooden product without cutting down trees.In the lab, the researchers first take cells from the leaves of a young plant. These cells are cultured in liquid medium for two days, then moved to another medium which contains nutrients and two different hormones (激素). By adjusting the hormone levels, the researchers can tune the physical and mechanical qualities of the cells. Next, the researchers use a 3D printer to shape the cell-based material, and let the shaped material grow in the dark for three months. Finally,the researchers dehydrate(使脱水) the material, and then evaluate its qualities.They found that lower hormone levels lead to plant materials with more rounded, open cells of lower density(密度), while higher hormone levels contribute to the growth of plant materials withsmaller but denser cell structures. Lower or higher density of cell structures makes the plant materials softer or more rigid, helping the materials grow with different wood-like characteristics. What's more, it's to be noted that the research process is about 100 times faster than the time it takes for a tree to grow to maturity!Research of this kind is ground-breaking.“This work demonstrates the great power of a technology,”says lead researcher, Jeffrey Berenstain.“The real opportunity here is to be at its best with what you use and how you use it. This technology can be tuned to meet the requirements you give about shapes, sizes, rigidity, and forms. It enables us to ‘grow’ any wooden product in a way that traditional agricultural methods can't achieve.”32. Why do researchers at MIT conduct the research?A. To grow more trees.B. To protect plant diversity.C. To reduce tree losses.D. To predict forest disappearance.33. What does paragraph 2 mainly tell us about the lab research?A. Its theoretical basis.B. Its key procedures.C. Its scientific evidence.D. Its usual difficulties.34. What does the finding suggest about the plant materials?A. The hormone levels affect their rigidity.B. They are better than naturally grown plants.C. Their cells’shapes mainly rely on their density.D. Their growth speed determines their characteristics.35. Why is the research ground-breaking according to Berenstain?A. It uses new biological materials in lab experiments.B. It revolutionizes the way to make wooden products.C. It challenges traditional scientific theories in forestry.D. It has a significant impact on worldwide plant growth.第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

With so many young"buy now,pay later"shoppers already in debt from this short-tern financing tool not requiring interest,questions emerge:Why do these shoppers use such a tool?And what risks does it pose to their budgets in the months(21)______(come)?The many Generation Zand millennials(typically around40years and younger)tend to use this short-term financing,(22)_______allows them to buy items and pay for them over time.Offered mostly by financial technologies,BNPL allows these customers to pay back their purchases (23)______interest and with the first payment usually made at checkout.The most common"buy now,pay later"plan is(24)______customers make four equal payments and pay off the debt in six weeks.It's been a lifeline for some people,such as a university student(25)______weekly income is not big enough.“BNPL provides consumers with flexible payment options so they(26) ______manage spending,"said Vivek Pandya,lead analyst at Adobe Digial Insights.That is of great importance for many consumers,especially(27)______with a tendency to purchase higher-cost items.However,since BNPL(28)______(appear),warnings from experts have come into our view.

___31___the life of the American theoretical physicist who helped research and develop the two atomic bombs that were dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki,two cities in Japan,during World War II.Oppenheimer is a great achievement,partly because it___32___relates that period of history thanks to Nolan's lifelike filmmaking.Nolan goes deep and long on the___33____of the bomb, but he doesn't restage the attacks and there are no documentary images of the dead or cities in ashes.The story tracks Oppenheimer across decades,starting in the1920s with him as a young adult and continuing until his hair___34___.The film touches on his personal and professional milestones,the controversies that___35___him,and the attacks that nearly ruined him.Besides, the friendships and romances___36___him,yet also troubling,are also described.The path of Oppenheimer's life___37___shifted at Berkeley.He was once only an academic there,but his identity changed after Germany entered Poland by force.By that time,Oppenheimer had become friends with Emest Lawrence,a physicist who invented the historic particle accelerator(粒子加速器)and played a(n)___38___role in the Manhattan Project.And Oppenheimer also met the project's military head and was then made director of Los Alamos, where much of his later research on nuclear weapons took place.Francois Truffaut once wrote that"war films,even those who support peace,even the best, willingly or not,present wars in a certain___39___way.”That is why Nolan refuses to show the bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki,killing millions of souls.In the film,you hear that Oppenheimer's famous words___40___his own mind as the mushroom cloud rose:“Now I am become Death,the destroyer of worlds."Nolan is actually reminding audience to reconsider the roles they can play in the world.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.Paris has long been at the heart of the history of flight.It is where the Montgolfier brothers went up in the first hot-air balloon in1783,and where Charles Lindbergh completed the first one-person transatlantic aeroplane journey in1927.Next year,if all goes to plan,Paris will witness the birth of another industry___41___,when Volocopter,a German maker of electric aircraft,launches a flying-taxi service during the Olympic Games.At the Paris Airshow in June, Volocopter and some of its competitors displayed a new generation of___42____flying machines designed for urban transport.The electrification of aviation(航空)has often been dismissed as a pipe dream,with batteries assumed too heavy a___43___for traditional fuel in an airborne vehicle.For longer journeys,that may well be true.Yet upstarts like Volocopter are betting that electrification can___44___a boom in demand for clean and quick air journeys over shorter distances.The main form of a flying taxi under___45___,called an electric vertical(垂直的)take-off and landing(eVTOL)aircraft,is expected to carry up to four passengers plus a pilot.Powered by batteries,it is predicted to be both quiet enough to reduce complaints in crowded cities,and fast:capable of up to300kph,enough to comfortably___46___a car,especially the one stuck in traffic.And optimists believe the absence of traffic in the sky will also make eVTOLs well-suited to___47___operation.They could prove handy for transporting goods,too.That vision has inspired___48___predictions.For example,Morgan Stanley,an investment bank,estimates global spending on eVTOLs could hit S1,000billion by2040!Regardless of the above___49___expectations,challenges remain.One problem is technical certification,which is turning out to be a(n)___50___process as aviation regulators work on an entirely new form of te last year,due to regulatory delays and some other factors,Joby, a Silicon Valley startup,was forced to___51___its launch by one more year until2025.Many have even longer to go.The bigger question is—is the business of flying taxis ___52___practicable?EVTOLs currently range in price from S1million to$4million.Some believe that their cost may come down as the industry develops.Brian Yutko of Wisk,a maker backed by Boeing,says that flying-taxi rides will be accessible to___53___in the near future. And Joby promises that its fares will be comparable to catching a common taxi___54___there is an opposite belief that eVTOLs are likely to remain expensive.Some studies suggest the cost could end up as high as$7per kilometer,many times a regular taxi fare.That means,even without a pilot,flying taxis may remain a convenience___55___only to a lucky few.Let's expect plenty more experiments with electric aircraft in the years ahead.41.A.cooperator petitor C.observer D.pioneer42.A.wind-driven B.battery-driven C.gas-driven D.solar-driven43.A.substitute B.shelter C.treatment D.desire44.A.regulate B.maintain C.unlock D.reverse45.A.pressure B.attack C.development D.repair46.A.underestimate B.update C.outpace D.overdo47.A.rigid B.autonomous C.attentive D.illegal48.A.daring B.discouraging C.unclear D.ordinary49.A.technological B.unrealistic C.rewarding D.enthusiastic50.A.efficient B.simple C.lengthy D.intelligent51.A.put off B.speed up C.object to D.approve of52.A.historically B.technically C.theoretically D.economically53.A.the learned B.the disabled C.the seniors D.the masses54.A.Furthermore B.However C.Fortunately D.Consequently55.A.affordable B.valuable C.unbelievable D.unsuitableSection 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)Every summer,as a child,I spent with my parents the annual family holiday,flying away from our home in the West Midlands to their birthplace in Ireland.I enjoyed it,but once,I behaved differently and left home.Package tours and long-distance flights became my idea of a holiday.I then went and ran into an Englishman who also came of Irish stock,and we both felt the urge to renew our knowledge of Ireland.It was important for us to discover something different from our childhood visits.So that's how we came to drive along the winding St John's Point Peninsula(半岛)in Donegal,part of Ireland's Wild Atlantic Way,to visit a unique part of the20th-century history—the Donegal Corridor. When anyone drives to the point where the land runs out,he sees giant white stones fixed firmly in green grass spelling out"EIRE"and“70”,while the Atlantic wind fiercely blows across the headland and the ice-white waves smash into the rocks below.The meaning behind the stones? They date back to the Second World War when St John's Point was number70in a total of83 Look Out Points(LOPs),observation stations set up and maintained by lreland all around its coast.There lies a bit of curious UK-lreland history.Although Ireland was officially neutral during the war,the Battle of the Atlantic was being fought close to Irish shores,and these LOPs,staffed by local volunteers known as Coastwatchers,pased on information on activities connected with the sea and weather fronts to London.At St John's Point,we were standing right under the Donegal Corridor,a long narrow area ofairspace in which lreland ensured safe passage during World War II to planes in the RAF(Royal Air Force)from bases in the UK-governed North of lreland.The stone markings acted as reference points to aircrews.Standing on this rough area of land surrounded by the wild and windy ocean brought home to us the conditions in which the Coastwatchers and aircrews in the RAF cooperated in a shared history.I revolted against my family tradition that summer,and I fulfilled my aim of discovering something new and absorbed all Donegal has to offer:empty golden beaches,mysterious ancient stone circles,folk music and crafts,and tasty food.I had fallen in love with Ireland all over again.56.What can we learn about the author from paragraphs1to3?A.She met a childhood friend from Ireland that year.B.She and that Englishman both had Irish ancestors.C.She took package tours and long-distance flights every year.D.She explored the Wild Atlantic Way with her family members.57.The giant white stones were important during WWII becauseA.the Battle of the Atlantic took place right close to themB.weather information from the UK was sent through themC.they functioned as reference points to aircrews in the RAFD.they ranked at the top in the83LOPs around the lrish coast58.The expression"revolted against"in the last paragraph is closest in meaning to_____.A.worried aboutB.passed onC.celebratedD.disobeyed59.Which might be the best title of the passage?A.A Global JourneyB.Discovering Undiscovered DonegalC.Happy HolidaysD.Escaping from the West Midlands(B)Ads,news,movies,TV shows,and many other types of media all want you to accept their messages at face value.However,you should look beneath the surface and ask questions to decode what the media message is really saying.You need to ask yourself two basic questions:Who is the source of the message?How is it trying to get your attention?Question1:Who is the source of the message?(Picture A)Knowing who is responsible for a message can reveal its true intention,as well as any possible prejudice.Just take the picture above as an example.Why are we asked to ban the impacts?Don't forget that the source at the bottom plays a part.If,sometimes,the source isn't clear,we can look for it by checking legal documents.Question2:How is it trying to get your attention?(Picture B)The obvious part of a message is called the text which includes any language imagery,music,or anything else you can see or hear.The implied part of a message is called the subtext,and it's suggested by the content rather than directly seen or heard. We as individuals then decide how to interpret this subtext based on our personal ideas, world views and expectations. People with different perspectives might interpret the same piece of message differently.Mind that some media may just take advantage of the prejudice.(Picture C)Photo control is nearly as oldas photography itself,butmodern technology has madeit common and easy to do.Using photo editing software,almost anyone can make bigchanges to an image,fromadjusting colors and lighting toadding and removing content.That's why you should alwayskeep a critical eye on imagesin the media.Some media mayhold back or overstateinformation like anadvertisement that makes theproducts appear more effectivethan they really are.(Picture D)Social media users can alsogive themselves a digitaltransformation with a littleeffort.They can makethemselves look however theylike in just a few moments.But since these edited imagesare presented as reality,theycan affect our mentalwell-being.By constantlyseeing pictures of artificiallysuperb people some of us maystart to believe that thesepictures are genuine,and thatwe can never live up to theseunrealistic ideals.This type ofharmful thinking can lead toall sorts of mental andemotional health concerns.60.We can learn from the passage that_______.A.the media hope that you can make sense of their true meaningsB.finding the sources of media helps to form a sensible judgmentC.text is more important than subtext when we analyze the messagesD.photography and photo editing software date back to the same time61.Your aunt finds her newly-bought belt doesn't make her so stylish as advertised.Which picture can illustrate the case?A.Picture AB.Picture BC.Picture CD.Picture D62.This passage can be found under the section ofA.Mass Media ReadingB.Content-Targeted AdvertisingC.Deconstructing Web-pagesD.Persuasive Language Recognition(C)Antibiotics,which can destroy or prevent the growth of bacteria and cure infections,are vial to modem medicine.Their ability to kill bacteria without harming the patient has saved billions of lives and made surgical procedures much safer.But after decades of overuse,their powers are fading.Some bacteria have evolved resistance,creating a growing army of superbugs,against which there is little effective treatment.Antimicrobial(抗菌的)resistance,expected to kill10 million people a year by2050up from around I million in2019,has been seen as a crisis by many. It would be unwise to rely on new antibiotics to solve the problem.The rate at which resistance emerges is increasing.Some new drugs last only two years before bacteria develop resistance. When new antibiotics do arrive,doctors often store them,using them only reluctantly and for short periods when faced with the most persistent infections.That limits sales,making new antibiotics an unappealing idea for most drug firms.Governments have been trying to fix the problem by channeling cash into research in drug firms.That has produced only limited improvements.But there is a phenomenon worth a look. Microbiologists have known for decades that disease-causing bacteria can suffer from illnesses of their own.They are supersensitive to attacks by phages,specialised viruses that infect bacteria and often kill them.Phages are considered a promising alternative to antibiotics.Using one disease-causing virus to fight bacteria has several advantages.Like antibiotics, phages only tend to choose particular targets,leaving human cells alone as they infect and destroy bacterial ones.Unlike antibiotics,phages can evolve just as readily as bacteria can,meaning that even if bacteria do develop resistance,phages may be able to evolve around them in tum.That,at least,is the theory.The trouble with phages is that comparatively little is known about them.After the discovery of penicilin,the first antibiotic,in1928,they were largely ignored in theWest.Given the severity of the antibiotic-resistance problem,it would be a good idea to find out more about themThe first step is to run more clinical trials.Interest from Western firms is growing.But it is being held back by the fact that phages are an even less appealing investment than antibiotics. Since they are natural living things,there may be trouble patenting them,making it hard to recover any investment.Governments can help fund basic research into phage treatment and clarify the law around exactly what is and is not patentable.In time they can set up phage banks so as to make production cheaper.And they can spread awareness of the risks of overusing antibiotics,and the potential benefits of phages.63.We can learn from paragraphs1and2that_______.A.doctors tend to use new antibiotics when the patients ask for themB.antimicrobial resistance is developing more rapidly than predictedC.new antibiotics fail to attract drug firms due to limited use of themD.previous antibiotics are effective in solving modem health problems64.What is phages'advantage over antibiotics?A.They can increase human cells when fighting bacteria.B.They are not particular about which cells to infect and kill.C.They can evolve accordingly when bacteria develop resistance.D.They are too sensitive to be infected by disease-causing bacteria.65.According to the passage,the obstacle to phage treatment is thatA.there is little chance of patenting phages in the futureernments provide financial support for other researchC.the emergence of superbugs holds back drug firms'interestD.over-dependence on antibiotics distracts attention from phages66.What is the main idea of the passage?ernments fail to stop the use of antibiotics.B.Phages could help prevent an antibiotics crisis.C.Development of antibiotics is limited by phages.D.Antimicrobial resistance calls for new antibiotics.Section CDirections:Read the following passage.Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box. Each sentence can only be used once.Note that there are two sentences more than you need.A.Social maskers do not try hard to match other people in pace and tone.B.Social masking is something we all engage in to some extent.C.Social maskers are not trying to fox anyone.D.When we are in natural identification with someone,it happens naturally,and there is very little effort involved.E.If's adopted by people unable to naturally act in a way considered socially acceptable.E.That is,it's an ancient part of our evolution to socialize,rather than be anti social or a misfit.Social MaskingAmanda is always an expert at working the room.She would adopt the manner of the people around her to fit in while hiding her true personality.This is social masking,the process of hiding your natural way of interacting with others so you can feel accepted.(67)______Instead,they are hoping to fit in with everybody else.Social masking is a set of learned pattern-matching behaviors,movements and actions where you try to be normal to fit in rather than stand out.(68)_____People all wear certain social masks in order to get through some tricky life situations with confidence,according to Dr.Tarn Quinn-Cirillo.And some experts even think social masking is built in all human beings at a physical level,adding that something in our brain gives indications of how to essentially stay safe and not stick out.In a world that often tells us to just be ourselves,you might wonder why we are still dependent on these social masking behaviors."Social masking happens because we as a species want to be included,"says Tarn.“It has been a tribal thing of being together rather than being on our own, from a historical perspective.(69)_______________There is a huge difference between naturally identifying with someone and consciously social masking.(70)__________Social masking,on the other hand,involves a conscious effort to change your personality to suit your surroundings.It typically involves depressing your natural urges and changing your personal interests to fit the crowd.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.71.Why Should We Read Literary Classics?Many have grown up on a healthy diet of literary classics.Some literary classics have been inspiring readers in many ways.In this age of fast-turners,how does investing our time in a timeless literary classic change us for the better?Many literary classics from yesteryear,which got little or no success when published,are considered invaluable.These books offer a window through which we can experience histories rooted in different cultures.One can always ask,“But we can do so by reading our history books too.Why do we need to read classics?"The simple answer is that these literary classics are not just a retelling of history.They allow us to have a more individualized experience,where they show us other ways to look at history.It is common knowledge that reading as a habit helps us improve our command of the language.But literary classics have an edge:the enriching writing style is something that sets them apart.Fascinated with the amazing wording and phrasing,we'll surely pause and wonder about what we read.For instance,when we read Shakespeare,we naturally begin to consider how to better express our ideas just like his far-reaching"Have more than you show；speak less than you know."One more benefit is that after reading classics,we won't see non-classics as just other stories: we'll become interested in them.Maybe we'll realize that some details we ignored last time are actually worth appreciating,or we'll discover literary devices that bring a whole new meaning to the story.Literary classics offer us more perspectives to dig deep and enhance our ability to think and reason,which will inevitably spill over into our reading of other works.We finally fall in love with non-classics as well.V.TranslationDirections:Translate the following sentences into English,using the words given in the brackets.72.室友们商定好每两天打扫一次宿含。

Grammar and VocabularySection ADirections: After reading the passage below, fill in the blanks to make the passage coherent and grammatically correct. For the blanks with a given word, fill in each blank with the proper form of the given word; for the other blanks, use one word that best fits each blank.Even Very Young Children Can Be Depressed If you doubted it, I would introduce you to Susan, who came to my office and talked constantly about her “bad feeling.” Susan 21 (lose) interest in her favorite activities, stopped playing with her friends, and told her parents that she wanted to be dead. She’d spent more time in the school nurse’s office than in her classroom.Susan was six years old and 22 (suffer) from depression. Proper treatment helped Susan recover. Without it, she might still be an unhappy child, alone and in pain.The risk for depression does tend to increase as we grow older. Depression in young children is rare but real. Rene Spitz, a 23 (note) psychological researcher, found that infants who were in an institutional orphanage after World War II refused to eat and eventually died 24 they weren’t held by their caretakers. Children have an innate need 25 (hold) and comforted. If those needs aren’t met, then even very young children can fail to thrive and may become sick and die.Approximately 1% of preschoolers experience depression; they often have great difficulty expressing their feelings, because not all of their language skills 26 (develop) sufficiently. Instead of expressing their feelings in language, the depressed preschool children are likely to show emotions by exhibiting significantly aggressive, fearful, or crying behavior. 27 most preschool children may get angry if they’re hungry, sleepy, afraid 28 their parents go away, or fail to get Daddy to buy them the latest toys, these behaviors are often carried to extremes of intensity and frequency in depressed children.Although a diagnosis of clinical depression is rare in preschool children, there are times when it is appropriate. In most cases, the child who 29 (experience) significant frustrations resulting from the death or absence of a parent, has witnessed or been victims of violence, or has had a significant health problem 30 has interrupted normal emotional or physical development.I find preschool children to be more resilient (适应力强的) than older children in dealing with these events, as long as they have a supportive parent and receive timely treatment.Section BDirections: Complete the following passage by using the words in the box. Each word can only be used once. Note that there is one word more than you need.E. paidF. respondA. objectedB. choicesC. inequalityD.combinationG. personality H. fade I. reduce J. inherited K.environmentalWhat makes us happy?You probably know the type of personality in some people: they seem to be hopeful in almost everything. Are they simply born happy? Is it the product of their environment? Or does it come from their life decisions?If you are familiar with genetics research, you will have guessed that it is a 31 of all three.A 2018 study of 1516 Norwegian twins suggests that around 30% of the differences in people’s life satisfaction is 32 . Much of this seems to be related to personality traits.To put this in context, the heritability of IQ is thought to be around 80%, so 33 factors clearly play a role in our happiness. These include our physical health, the size and strength of our social network, job opportunities and income. It seems that the absolute value of our salary matters less than whether we feel richer than those around us, which may explain why the level of 34 predicts happiness better than GDP.Interestingly, many important life 35 have only a little influence on our happiness. Consider marriage. A 2019 study found that, on average, life satisfaction does rise after the wedding, but the feeling of happiness tends to 36 over middle age.Parenthood is even more complex. For decades, social scientists have found that people with children at home are significantly less happy than those without. More recent research, however, suggests that there are important regional differences.Analyses show that these differences can be almost completely explained by variations in 37 parentalleave, flexible working hours, affordable childcare and holiday leave, which together 38 the potential for work-family conflict. The effects of these policies may play out across generations. In addition to the legacy of their genes, parents’ own emotional well-being will influence the family vigour, which will, in turn, shape the39 of their children.Our life satisfaction, then, is shaped by our genes, health, economic prospects, relationships and the culture around us. While many of these things may be beyond your control, there is now goodevidence that certain psychological strategies will help you to 40 to your circumstances in the happiest way possible.Ⅲ. 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.The Amazon is warming three times faster than the global average It is perhaps the most ironic symbol of the life on our planet. The Amazon is the world’s largest and most bio-diverse tropical rainforest and a huge trap for carbon dioxide. The harms of 41 in this vital resource are old news. But now, the time on the clock is running out. It seems that the world’s biggest rainforest is about to turn into the world’s biggest environmental 42 . “We are about to collapse,” says Luciana Gati at Brazil’s National Institute for ce Research. “We are in a(n) 43 , we need action now.”Gati has spent years 44 the Amazon from the air. She believes we are as little as five years from a point of no return, where rainforest begins to turn into dry land. It is also the point at which billions of tons of carbon would be 45 into the atmosphere. “It’s a nightmare,” she says.That nightmare situation is the well-known Amazon 46 point, where the ecosystem canno longer cope with the damage of the forest cutting. Like a domino game, one brick falling will 47 the whole tower to collapse in a heap.Warnings that this is approaching have now taken on extreme urgency. The rate of deforestation has increased sharply and is fast approaching the theoretical 48 . In September, a group of more than 200 experts, including Gatti, released an assessment of the situation. The conclusion: we are on the 49 of disaster.Scientists first began to seriously worry about a potential Amazon tipping point in about 2000, when some studies warned that a combination of climate change and deforestation could cause the rainforest to 50 .A few years later, a team of Brazilian scientists put numbers on it. They 51 that in central, southern and eastern parts of the Amazon, a loss of 40% of the forest cover from pre-industrial levels,or 30C warming would reduce rainfall so much that the rest of the forest would die of 52 and turn into a dry land in less than a decade.The scientists have since 53 that prediction, partly due to the global warming that has happened since 2000. The Amazon is already 1.20C warmer than it was in pre-industrial times and is warming three times faster than the global 54 . At that rate of warming, between 20 and 25% deforestation would be enough to dry up the land and destroy the Amazon completely.“Either way, we would be wise not to exceed 20 %, says a scientist, “for the commonsense reason that there is no point in 55 the precise point of limit by tipping it.”41. A. fertilization B. elimination C. deforestation D. frustration42. A. program B. disaster C. protection D. regulation43. A. evolution B. spotlight C. condition D. emergency44. A. measuring B. observing C. protecting D. criticizing45. A. released B. melted C. turned D. supplied46. A. tipping B. disappointing C. awarding D. tapping47. A. build B. turn C. cause D. make48. A. problem B. prediction C. aspect D. limit49. A. base B. edge C. surface D. track50. A. dry out B. run down C. pay off D. rise up51. A. boasted B. insisted C. estimated D. instructed52. A. thirst B. starvation C. cold D. disease53. A. digested B. revised C. encouraged D. previewed54. A. strategy B. climate C. average D. system55. A. diagnosing B. instructing C. inquiring D. discoveringSection 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)As Dr. Pedro Jose grows older, he keeps setting his goals higher. He believes people in every walk of life need to constantly stretch for new challenges. His daily juggling act is extremely demanding. He’s a doctor, professor, and volunteer medical director of Saint John Clinic for undocumented immigrants. He still pushes on continuing to publicize his agenda in the media and serving on numerous boards and foundations.In 2002, Jose was named chairman of the board of the Hinic Heritage Awards Foundation. The awards recognize Hinics who make important contributions to life in America.Jose believes the stories of Hinic accomplishments can inspire all Americans. He adds, most important, the scholarships are offered by the foundation. Only two-thirds of Hinics graduate from high school. To help others, you must be able to help yourself, and that begins with education.Jose has received no shortage of honors of his own, including the prestigious MacArthur Fellowship and the Presidential Service Award. In 1994, Time magazine named him one of the nation’s 50 top leaders under the age of 40. And Hinic magazine named him Hinic of the Year in 2002. Jose’s autobiography, Waking Up in America, is now being made into a TV movie, starring Andy Garcia.Jose’s fervent hope is that the movie will help change people’s attitudes about the homeless. He hopes it will show that beyond the hard label are human beings---people who did not choose to be poor. Homeless people have needs and feelings that are no different from anyone else’s. They need help, not judgment.Most of all, though, Jose hopes that people will begin to realize the power they have to change things. There should never be another man in Bed 9, who died without anyone even knowing his name. There should never be another Giles Woodson, the man who was burned to death on the streets of Miami.“As a nation, what makes us great is our individuality. But what makes us truly powerful is when we work together,” says Jose. “If people put their minds to it, this kind of suffering can be solved.”56. How did Jose help the homeless?A. Volunteered to provide medical service for them.B. Provided good education for them.C. Set higher goals to face the coming challenges.D. Conducted medical research on them.57. Why was Jose named the head of the Hinic Heritage Awards Foundation?A. His success in the medical field inspired Americans.B. He contributed a lot to helping people in need.C. He developed good relationships with Hinics.D. He found few Hinics graduated from high school.58. Why was his autobiography made into a TV movie?A. His foundation provided scholarships for Hinics.B. He changed his attitude towards the homeless.C. He was a role model for Hinics and other Americans.D. He had a significant influence on the homeless.59. What do Jose’s words in the last paragraph imply?A. Be united and we will make the world a better place to live.B. Governments are responsible for the problem of the homeless.C. Do bear in mind that the homeless have suffered quite a lot.D. With rights and power, the homeless can solve their problems.(B)Take Off with Historic Hiring GrowthA message from Kate GeboWelcome aboard!We are so happy to have you fly with us.

The new paths for talentpipelines.(C)When I volunteered as a social worker at a domestic violence shelter in a developing country, I imagined the position for which my university experience had prepared me. I imagined conducting intake interviews and walking around from organization to organization seeking support that the women would need to rebuild their lives. When I arrived, I felt as if I already had months of experience, experience gained in the hypothetical situations I had invented and subsequently resolved single-handedly. I felt thoroughly prepared to tackle the situation I assumed was waiting for me.I arrived full of zeal. Within moments, my reality made a sharp break from which I had expected. The coordinator explained that the shelter’s need for financial self-sufficiency had become obvious. To address this, the center was planning to open a bakery. I immediately enthused about the project, making many references to the small enterprise case studies I had researched at the university. In response to my impassioned reply, the coordinator declared me in charge of the bakery. At that moment, I was as prepared to bake bread as I was to run for political office. The bigger problem, however, was that I was completely unfamiliar with the for-profit business models necessary to run the bakery. I was out of my depth in a foreign river with only my coordinator’s confidence to keep me afloat.They say that necessity is the mother of invention. I began finding recipes and using the expertise of friends. With their help making bread, printing leaflets and making contacts, the bakery was soon running successfully. After a short time it became a significant source of income for the house.In addition to funds, baking bread provided a natural environment to work with and get to know the women of the shelter. Kneading dough(揉面团) side by side, I shared in the friendly atmosphere of the kitchen, treated to stories about their children and the towns and jobs they had to leave behind to ensure their safety. Baking helped me develop strong relationships with the women and advanced my understanding of their situations. It also improved the women’s self-esteem. Their ability to master a new skill gave them confidence in themselves, and the fact that the bakery contributed tothe ueep of the house gave the women a sense of pride and the confidence that they had the capability to support themselves.Baking gave me the opportunity to work in a capacity I had not at all expected, but one that proved very successful. Learning to bake gave me as much newfound self-confidence as it gave the women, and I found that sometimes quality social work can be as simple as kneading dough.63. The primary purpose of the passage is to show how the author ________________.A. was shocked by the realityB. broadened the scope of her workC. developed her abilities to run a for-profit enterpriseD. handled a tough situation in a developing country64. The statement that the author arrived “full of zeal” indicates that she was ____________.A. anxious and insecureB. confident but uninformedC. eager and interestedD. enthusiastic but incompetent65. Why was the author initially enthusiastic about the idea of the bakery?A. She considered it from a theoretical point of view.B. She hoped to get a leadership position in the bakery.C. She wanted to show her baking skills to her new coordinator.D. She believed it is a good way to raise women’s self-esteem.... What did the last sentence (“Learning ... dough”) indicate?A. The author underestimated her abilities to learn new skills.B. The author derived benefit from her work by helping others.C. The author lacked self-confidence as much as the women working with her.D. The author found performing social work surprisingly easy with no education.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. It will not be long before he’s back in prison again.B. We’re all relieved that the criminal is being punished for his misdeeds.C. Community service is likely to turn prisoners into better persons.D. Offenders are tried and sentenced according to the legal system.E. The threat of another spell in jail will stop him from breaking the law again.F. Put the money into supporting deprived areas which are the grounds for crime.Hello, everyone!Are you worried about crime? I am. We read it every day in the newpers. A terrible crime has been committed, and the police have arrested someone. He has appeared in court and claimed hisinnocence but has been found guilty of his crime and he has been sentenced to ten years in prison.67 Innocent citizens like you and me can sleep more safely at night.But what happens next? We all hope the prisoner will benefit from society’s retribution. A spell(一阵子) in prison will reform him and make him a better person. We all hope he’ll reform and become like us. We all hope that when he is eventually released, he will be a good character.68 But, let’s face it. The reality is usually very different. The prisoner may be released onparole (假释)before the end of his sentence. He will try to re-enter society. But then he often becomes a victim himself, unable to find work and is rejected by society. 69 .So what can we do to make sure the offender doesn’t commit another crime? Of course, thereare alternatives to prison, such as community service or he can pay a large fine. Alternatively, wecould establish a more severe system of punishment.The answer is far simpler. We need to be tough not on the criminal, but on the cause of thecrime. We should spend less of the taxpayer’s money in funding the judges and all the other peoplewho are working for the legal system. 70 We in the ConLab Party believe that everybody needs a good chance in life, and this is a good step forward.Vote for us now!IV. Summary WritingDirections: Read the following passage. Summarize the main idea and the main point(s) of the passage in no more than 60 words. Use your own words as far as possible.71. The problem of robocalls has become so bad that we refuse to pick up calls from numberswe don’t know. Nearly half of the calls we receive are scams(欺诈). We’ve realized the severity ofthe problem by supporting and developing a group of tools, apps and approaches intended to prevent scammers from getting through. Unfortunately, it’s too little. By the time these “solutions” becomewidely available, scammers will have moved onto cleverer means. In the near future, it’s not justgoing to be the number you see on your screen that will be in doubt. Soon you will also question whether the voice you’re hearing is actually real.That’s because there are many powerful voice manipulation(处理) technologies to be available.A company showed a new voice technology able to produce a convincing human–sounding voiceable to speak to a receptionist and book a reservation without detection.These developments are likely to make our current problems with robocalls much worse. Thereason that robocalls are a headache has less to do with amount than precision. A decade of data disclosure of personal information has led to a situation where scammers can easily learn your mother’s name, and far more. Armed with this knowledge, they’re able to cheat the targeted people.This means, for example, that a scammer could call you from what looks to be a familiar number andtalk to you with a voice sounding exactly like your bank teller’s, misleading you to “confirm” your address and card number. Scammers follow money, so companies will be the worst hit. A lot ofbusiness is still done over the phone, and much of it is based on trust and existing relationships. Voice manipulation technologies may weaken that gradually.We need to deal with the insecure nature of our telecom networks. Phone carriers and consumers need to work together to find ways of determining and communicating what is real. That might mean either developing a uniform way to mark videos and images, showing when and who they were made by or abandoning phone calls altogether and moving towards data-based communications—using apps like WeChat and Alipay, which can be tied to your identity.V. TranslationDirections: Translate the following sentences into English, using the words given in the brackets.72. 边喝咖啡边欣赏上海夜景多惬意呀！（How）73. 这个案例太复杂，一时半会解释不清楚。

It was hard not to notice an 8-year-old kid storming in and out of his own house. “He doesn’t have a father,” said his neighbor, William Dunn. “I can probably do something for him.”That something was fishing, a 1 Dunn’s father had shared with him. “It broug ht me peace and taught me how to be patient,” he said. He then took the kid fishing every weekend. Gradually he took groups of kids out to fish. Most didn’t have father figures. “They’d been through a lot, and their lives were 2 ,” said Dunn. “But when they were fishing, all of that disappeared. On the boat, they’d be laughing and making new friends. They just 3 the moment.”4 by this scene, Dunn started the nonprofit Take a Kid Fishing. He and the volunteers have introduced 2,500 kids—most without fathers5 —to the calming peace found on the water and the excitement of catching a fish.Just as important as the fishing are the 6 Dunn forms with those kids. When they have a rough time, Dunn will talk with them, emphasizing self-respect and mental 7 . One of the kids, Bella Smith, said she would forget about the past while fishing and concentrate on something positive. “Fishing is learning,” she said. “I’ve learned I 8 a better life than what I had. Whenever I feel down, I know it’s time to go fishing.”Dunn’s father passed away this year, so fishing has 9 new meaning for him. “I have a stronger liking for it because now I’m fatherless too.

AMonet: The Immersive（沉浸式）ExperienceMonet: The Immersive Experience in Liège invites you to step into the world of the French painter Claude Monet, one of the greatest artistic geniuses of the nineteenth century!Explore some of the most breathtaking paintings by Claude Monet with the help of a digital 360-degree presentation. The unique exhibition concept is staged with state-of-the-art multimedia technology, which shows very large images of Monet’s paintings on the wall s and floors of the building．It has music, the smell of flowers, and voice-over in severallanguages to make the paintings come alive in a way never seen before．To fully get into the world of the French painter, visitors are guided through three experience rooms．Each room is a highlight on its own and provides visitors not only with an insight, but also with new experiences and new viewpoints on Monet’s life, his work and his masterpieces．Practical info·Date: from March 2024·Opening hours:Wednesday, Thursday: 10: 00 am-7: 00 pmFriday: 10: 00 am-8: 00 pmSaturday: 9: 00 am-8: 00 pmSunday: 9: 00 am-7: 00 pmMonday and Tuesday: Closed·Duration: the visit will take around 60 to 75 minutes·Location: Eglise Saint-Pholien, Rue Saint-Pholien, 4020 Liège·Please consult the FAQs of this experience here1．How does the exhibition help visitors explore Monet’s paintingsA．It uses digital technology．B．It gives lectures on art．C．It offers stages to visitors．D．It provides language services．2．What will visitors experience in the three roomsA．An exploration on French art．B．An introductory tour of painters．C．A unique journey to Monet’s world．D．An encounter withMonet-inspired artworks．3．Which of the following is a recommended visiting timeA．11: 30 am（Wed, Feb 21）．B．10: 00 am（Tue, Mar 19）．C．6: 30 pm（Thur, Mar 28）．D．4: 00 pm（Sun, Apr 7）．BThe Music Educator Award, this year, went to Annie Ray, an orchestra （管弦乐队）director at Annandale High School．She was recognized for her efforts to make music accessible to all students, particularly those with disabilities．Ray got to attend the awards ceremony in Los Angeles and bring home a $10,000 prize．Ray created the Crescendo Orchestra for students with severe intellectual and developmental disabilities, as well as a parent orchestra that teaches nearly 200 caregiver s a year to play the same instrument as their child．Ray also works with a local charity to give damaged instruments a second life in her classroom．The orchestra is about much more than just making music．The most important is to give students a chance to develop their cooperation skills, make mistakes and learn the art of refining something．Ray pushes her students to be brave, go outside their comfort zone and realize they have to learn how to make bad sounds before learning how to make good sounds．And they teach her a lot in return．“They changed my educational philosophy．I understand what it truly means to meet astudent where they’re at and apply that elsewhere,” she said．The warm reception on the ceremony was meaningful．Actually, not many people understand what exactly music educators do or how much their work matters．While her administration is supportive, that lack of understanding is a problem facing the profession in general．Another is resources．She say s her school “desperately” needs new instruments．She will use some of her prize money to buy moreRay also plans to put some of the money towards an ongoing scholarship for students who want to pursue music when they graduate．She knows of several, those particularly interested in music, and aims to offer financial support needed to realize their musical dreams．“It is hard but truly satisfying,” Ray said．“And there’s nothing else like it for them.”4．What can we learn about Ray from the first two paragraphs A．She hosted the award ceremony．B．She brought music to more people．C．She gave away instruments to the poor．D．She founded a local charity for children．5．What do students benefit most from the orchestraA．They acquire in-depth musical knowledge．B．They make friends with the like-minded．C．They gain personal growth from playing music．D．They improve their connections with educators．6．What is paragraph 4 of the text mainly aboutA．The reception on the ceremony．B．Importance of music education．C．Challenges for music educators．D．Plans to obtain resources．7．What does Ray find satisfying according to the last paragraph A．Winning a scholarship．B．Developing interest in music．C．Making musical achievements．D．Transforming dreams into reality．CAn ancient Lati n proverb says “Aquila non capit muscas” —cagles don’t hunt flies—meaning that important ones shouldn’t concern themselves with small, insignificant matters．But the lions in East Africa should concern themselves with the seemingly insignificant ants, because these ants are changing their lifestyles．The story start s with the acacia trees（金合欢树）in an African wildlife area in central Kenya．Some of these acacia trees provide food and shelter for specific an t species, which in turn defend the tree against herbivores（食草动物）．The ants are actively attacking and driving away herbivores that attempt to feed on the tree’s leaves．This is highly effective; the ants not only physically harm the herbivores but also release chemicals that can deter other potential attackers．But these ants are in trouble．Another species called the “big-headed” an t is destroying entire groups of tree-protecting ants．This, in turn, sets off an entire chain of events that ends up influencing when and howlions can hunt．This ant invasion（入侵）affects one thing after the other．It leaves the acacia trees defenseless against herbivores especially elephants．The elephants come in and eat the acacias at five to seven times the rate observed in uninvaded areas．The lions, while hunting for food, have no more trees to use for hiding．This reduced tree cover makes lions less successful at hunting and pushes them to find different areas to hunt in．“These tiny invaders are pulling on the ties that put an African ecosystem together, determining who is eaten a ndwhere,” said Todd Palmer, an ecologist from Florida．The lions, which are already endangered, are managing to cope with this by no longer focusing their attention on zebras．The zebras, of course, can see them much better on the approach given the lack of cover．Instead, they are targeting water buffalo．But this also isn’t the end of the story．Who knows what the lions’ changing strategy will mean for the ecosystem down the line8．What does the underlined word “deter” in paragraph 2mean A．Direct．B．Discourage．C．Identify．D．Seek．9．What role do the elephants play in the chain reaction A．Cooperating with “big-headed” ants．B．Damaging the hiding place for lions．C．Protecting the acacias from herbivores．D．Starting off thedisturbance of the chain．10．The author mentions lions, zebras and water buffalo to show that ______．A．animals fall victim to bigger ones B．the ecology is on the road to recoveryC．animals are corelated in the ecosystem D．species are firmly positioned in the food chain11．What is the text mainly aboutA．What ecologists find about animals．B．Why African lions are endangered．C．How tiny ants affect the way lions hunt．D．How the law of the jungle works in Africa．DAt a conference last week, I received an interesting piece of advice: “Assume you are wrong.” The advice came from Brian Nosek, a fellow psychology professor．He wasn’t objecting to any particular claim I’d made—he was offering a strategy for pursuing better science, and for encouraging others to do the same．To understand the context for Nosek’s advice, we need to take a step back—to the nature of science itself. Despite what many of us learned in elementary school, there is no single scientific method．Just as scientific theories change, so do scientific methods．Assuming you are right might be a motivating force, sustaining the enormous effort that conducting scientific work requires．But it also makes it easy to interpret criticisms as personal attacks, and for scientific arguments to develop into personal battles．Beginning, instead, from the assumption you are wrong, a criticism is easier to be viewed as a helpful pointer, a constructive suggestion for how to be less wrong—a goal that your critic probably shares．Nosek’s advice may sound pessimistic, but it’s not so foreign to science．Phi losophers of science sometimes refer to the “pessimistic meta-induction（元归纳）” on the history of science: All of our past scientific theories have been wrong, so surely our current theories will turn out to be wrong, too．That doesn’t mean we haven’t made pr ogress, but it does indicate that there is always room for improvement—ways to be less wrong．I like the advice because it builds in an awareness of our limitations anda readiness to accept the unknown（“there are things I do not know!”）along with a sense that we can do better（“there are things I do not know yet!”）．It also builds in a sense of community —we’re all in the same boat when it comes to falling short of getting things right. Perhaps the focus on a shared goal—our goal as scientists and humans of being less wrong—can help make up for any harm in scientific motivation or communication．12．Why did Nosek send the adviceA．To express opinions about my claims．B．To remind me to be open to criticism．C．To encourage me to take up science．D．To better my understanding of psychology．13．How does assuming you are wrong helpA．It motivates scientists to make efforts．B．It addresses personal attacks and conflicts．C．It sets a constructive improvement goal．D．It contributes to a deeper insight into yourself．14．What does the author think of science theories A．Dynamic．B．Testable．C．Pioneering．D．Well-established．15．Which of the following is the best title for the textA．Accept the Unknown B．Aim to Be Less WrongC．Get Engaged in Psychology D．Dig into the Nature of Science第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。
