You may have heard of the famous workplace communication software, Slack. Many companies use Slack to virtually communicate across teams. What most people don’t know is that Slack, despite its 1 , was never meant to exist. In fact, the company who developed Slack actually had been hoping to create the next popular video game. But after raising millions of dollars to fund the game development, the company ultimately 2 the project because the game failed to attract enough users.The 3 goal of the company wasn’t achieved. However, during the process of creating theirEQ(4)game, something else happened. The team realized that the system they created to accompany the game was worth investing more time in. And they 5 to invent the communication system idea for one of the fastest-growing startups (初创公司) in history, and Slack was born.An outcome-focused company might have just moved on from the failed video game or, worse, continued investing resources, risking further negative outcomes. But 6 , this company didn’t do that. 7 , they had been paying attention to the process. Focusing on the process allowed this company to 8 and redefine their desired outcome.You’ve probably heard a quote or two in your life about the 9 of “the journey”—how often the journey is more significant and impactful than the 10 .

For the blanks with a given word, fill in each blank with the proper form of the given word. For the other blanks, fill in each blank with one proper word. Make sure that your answers are grammatically correct.Of the many factors that contribute to poor performance on standardized tests like the SAT, nerves and exhaustion, surprisingly, (21) ______ not rank very high. In fact, according to a new paper published in Journal of Experimental Psychology, a little anxiety – not to mention fatigue – might actually be a very good thing.The study was conducted by psychology professors Phillip Ackerman and Ruth Kanfer. They recruited 239 college freshmen, each (22) ______ (agree) to take three different versions of the SAT reasoning test (23) ______ (give) on three consecutive Saturday mornings. The tests would take three-and-a-half hours, four-and-a-half hours and five-and-a-half-hours, and would be administered (24) ______ a random order to each of the students. (25) ______ (boost) the stress level in the students – who had already taken the SAT in the past and gotten into college – Ackerman and Kanfer offered a cash bonus to any volunteers who (26) ______ (beat) their high-school score.(27) ______ the test began on each of the three Saturdays, the students filled out a questionnaire that asked them about their fatigue level, mood and confidence. They completed the questionnaire again at a break in the middle of the test and once more at the end. Together, all of these provided a sort of fever chart of the students’energy and anxiety during the experience.When the researchers scored the results, it came as no surprise that volunteers’fatigue and stress rose steadily (28) ______ the test got longer. (29) ______ was unexpected was their corresponding performance: as the length of the test increased, so (30) ______ the students’scores.

Note that there is one word more than you need.A.confusinglyB. robbingC. applyD. acceleratesE. bearableF. fearG. underlyingH. temporarilyI. claimsJ. bargainK. outcomesThe Danger of SharentingFor the vast majority of people, checking social media involves a mix of expectation and curiosity. The app feeds on a collective ____31____ that we are missing out on something, whether it’s a fabulous party, a pop-up sale, or the mere concept of vacation. But the same concept doesn’t quite ____32____ to parents sharing pictures of their young children online. There certainly may be an element of proud boasting: “Admire my little son’s taste in jazz,” etc. But these carefully chosen photos often do little more than help parents escape from a harsh day _____33_____. The isolation of parenthood delivers one to strange places, and you need your tribe. Sharing images on social media makes the experience ____34____, connecting one to a larger world.In his new book Why We Should Think Before We Talk About Our Kids Online, Leah Plunkett, a Harvard psychology professor, argues that “sharenting” happens when an adult transmits private details about a child via digital channels. It ____35_____ a child’s entry into “digital life.” Studies estimate that by 2030 nearly two-thirds of identity-fraud cases affecting today’s children will have been caused by sharenting.For Plunkett, there are a couple of reasons to be concerned about sharenting. On a philosophical level, sharenting exposes children to the larger digital world without their permission, ____36_____ them of a kind of privacy. This feeds into Plunkett’s second, much broader concern. The _____37_____ problem with sharenting is the same with many adult-world privacy issues: the bargain we have made in exchange for these services is that we surrender our data and choose not to imagine the worst-case scenarios. Could things that parents post about children produce real-world ____38_____, in terms of bullying, professional reputation, or future prospects? Today, long before children take their first step, their digital data already travels to “thousands, likely tens of thousands, of human and machine users.”How long will it be until someone ___39_____ the power to predict who a child will become as an adult based on these data points?Plunkett’s concerns made parents reconsider their choices. In the end, Plunkett’s advice is to “make more mindful choices” about digital lives though parenthood is often so ____40____ vague that mindfulness seems impossible.III. Reading Comprehension 45%Section A 15%Directions:For each blank in the following passages 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.(A)You can actually catch a good mood or a bad mood from your friends, accordingto a recent study in the journal Royal Society Open Science. But that shouldn’t stop you from ___41___ with pals who are down in the dumps, say the study authors: ___42___, the effect isn’t large enough to push you into depression.The new study adds to a growing body of research suggesting that happiness and sadness—as well as lifestyle and behavioral factors like smoking, drinking, obesity, fitness habits and even the ability to concentrate—can ___43___ across social networks, both online and in real life. But while many ___44___ studies have only looked at friendship data at one point in time, this is one of the few that measured social and mood changes over time.The new research involved groups of junior-high and high-school students who took part in ___45___ screenings（筛查） and answered questions about their best friends, many of whom were also enrolled in the study. In total, 2,194 students were included in the ___46___, which used a mathematical model to look for connections among friend networks.Overall, kids whose friends suffered from bad moods were more ___47___ to report bad moods themselves—and they were less likely to have improved when they were screened again six months to a year later. When people had more happy friends, ___48___, their moods were more likely to improve over time.Some symptoms related to depression—like helplessness, tiredness and loss of interest—also seemed to follow this ___49___, which scientists call “social contagion.” But this isn’t something that people need to ___50___, says lead author Robert Eyre, a doctoral student at the University of Warwick. Rather, it’s likely just a “___51___ empathetic response that we’re all familiar with, and something we recognize by common sense,” he says. In other words, when a friend is going through a rough patch, it makes sense that you’ll feel some of their ___52___, and it’s certainly not a reason to stay away.The study also found that having friends who were clinically depressed did not ___53___ participants’ risk of becoming depressed themselves. “Your friends do not put you at risk of illness,” says Eyre, “so a good course of action is simply to ___54___ them.” To boost both of your moods, he suggests doing things together that you both ___55___—and taking other friends along to further spread those good feelings, too.”41.

A. eliminate B. conceal C. increase D. sugarcoat54. A. enlighten B. consult C. empower D. support55. A. enjoy B. understand C. advise D. permitSection B 22%Directions: 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 givenin the passage you have just read.(A)For most city people, the elevator is an unremarkable machine that inspires none of the enthusiasm or interest that Americans afford trains, jets，and even bicycles. Dr. Christopher Wilk is a member of a small group of elevator experts who consider this a misunderstanding. Without the elevator, they point out, there could be no downtown skyscrapers or tall buildings, and city life as we know it would be impossible. In that sense, they argue, the elevator’s role in American history hasthe car and been no less significant than that of cars. In fact, according to Wilk,the elevator have been locked in a “secret war” for over a century, with cars making it possible for people to spread horizontally (水平地), and elevators pushing them toward life in close groups of towering vertical (垂直的)columns.If we tend to ignore the significance of elevators, it might be because riding in them tends to be such a brief, boring, and even awkward experience--one that can involve unexpectedly meeting people with whom we have nothing in common, and an unpleasant awareness of the fact that we’re hanging from a cable in a long passage.In a new book, Lifted, German journalist and cultural studies professor Andreas Bernard directed all his attention to this experience, studying the origins of elevator and its relationship to humankind and finding that riding in an elevator has never been a totally comfortable experience. “After 150 years, we are still not used to it,” Bernard said. “We still have not exactly learned to cope with the mixture of closeness and displeasure.” That mixture, according to Bernard, sets the elevator ride apart from just about every other situation we find ourselves in as we go about our lives.Today，as the world’s urban population explodes, and cities become moredenser, taller, and more crowded, America’s total number of elevators—900,000 at last count, according to Elevator World magazine’s “2012 Vertical Transportation Industry”--are a force that’s becoming more important than ever. And for the people who really, really love them, it seems like high time that we looked seriously at just what kind of force they are.56. What does the underlined word “this” in Paragraph 1 refer to?A. The general view of elevators.B. The particular interests of experts.C. The desire for a remarkable machine.D. The enthusiasm for transport vehicles.57. The author’s purpose in mentioning cars is ______A. to contrast their functions with elevators’B. to emphasize the importance of elevatorsC. to reveal their secret war against elevatorsD. to explain people’s preference for elevators58. According to Prof. Bernard, what has made the elevator ride different from otherlife experiences?A. Vertical directionB. Lack of excitement.C. Little physical space.D. Uncomfortable conditions.59. The author urges readers to consider______.A. the exact number of elevator loversB. the serious future situation of elevatorsC. the role of elevators in city developmentD. the relationship between cars and elevators(B)We have designed all our bank cards to make your life easier.How to use your NatWest ServicecardAs a Switch card, it lets you pay for all sorts of goods and services, wherever you see the Switch logo.

As he looked back over his short life, the Dutchman found little to celebrate among the endeavors of his faltering career. By conventional, middle-class standards, he was a failure. After a couple of dead-end teaching jobs in England, as well as a short, forgettable spell working in a bookshop in Dordrecht, he moved to Amsterdam to become a minister of religion, following in his father’s footsteps. At the end of 1878, he set off for the depressed coalmining district of the Borinage to the west of the city of Mons in Belgium, determined to establish himself as a preacher(牧师) to the working class.There, he lived in a humble hut, gave away much of his money, and changed his smart clothes into the practical work-wear of the “Borins.” Unfortunately, he was not a gifted speaker, so his meetings were sparsely attended. His inability to connect with the local coalminers was compounded by a practical, linguistic difficulty: he couldn’t make head or tail of their quick-fire regional dialect known as “Walloon French,” while they were mystified by his own attempts at French,which to their ears sounded overly formal. In July 1879, only half a year after he had arrived in the region, he received another setback: the authorities terminated his trial religious appointment.Yet it was at this rock-bottom moment that van Gogh, now 26, started to draw. “I often feel homesick for the country of paintings,” he wrote to his brother Theo in the summer of 1880. He felt sympathy for the working-class miners. For the first time in his life, middle-class van Gogh was friends with poor, working-class people. The people were poor and illiterate, and their work was hard and dangerous. Yet for van Gogh, there was some kind of bigger truth in their simple way of life. After he became an artist, he chose to find his subject matter there. Like artists that he admired, such as Jean-Francois Millet, he wanted to portray the life of working-class people, and he remained interested in doing so certainly for the first half of his career. Really, it stayed important to him forever. In addition to this general concern for everyday reality and the rural poor, particular themes that van Gogh encountered in the Borinage would later feature prominently in his art. As he once put it in a letter: “It was in the Borinage that I began to work from nature for the first time.”Few works from van Gogh’s Borinage period survived, because the artist burned most of them. As he revealed in a letter to a friend, he felt they were too clumsy or related to an uncertain time when he was still developing his own style and artistic voice.63. What happened to Vincent van Gogh in 1878?A. He learned a lot from different jobs.B. He felt dissatisfied with his career.C. He was a member of the working class.D. He became the apprentice of his father.64. Why did van Gogh have difficulty communicating with the local miners?A. The miners didn’t appreciate his dressing style.B. Their French wasn’t agreeable in each other’s ear.C. His French pronunciation wasn’t standard.D. He had trouble in making a speech.65. What can we infer from the passage?A. Van Gogh interacted with working-class people all through his life even thoughhe was born middle-class.B. Van Gogh and Jean-Francois Millet both found inspiration from the rural peoplein the Borinage.C. Van Gogh’s paintings in the Borinage mirrored the life of working-class people.D. Van Gogh ruined many of his works in the Borinage because his artistic voicewas unheard then.66. What is the proper title of the passage?A. The Subject of van Gogh’s Works.B. The Turning Point of Van Gogh’s Life.C. The Way van Gogh Viewed His Art.D. The Working Class and Van Gogh’s success.Section C 8%Directions: Complete the following passage by using the sentences given below. Each sentence can be used only once. Note that there are two more sentences than you need.A. You are only allowed to purchase a firearm if you have had a background checkand meet certain legal requirements.B. There have been many enlightening articles on gun control in America.C. If you were to visit the United States for two months, the only gun you mightsee is in a museum or on a police officer.D. Less than fifty percent of homes in the United States own weapons, and many ofthose homes are in rural areas where guns may have a greater use.E. More people are deciding to legalize their gun transactions instead of buyingthem on the black market.F. What alarms people the most about American gun culture are the illegal guns and shooting.Guns have a special place in American culture, and though not everyone agrees on whether or not they are a good thing, there is no mistaking that they will be part of the cultural landscape for some time. To answer the question, no, not everyone has a gun._____67_____. Americans use guns for one of two uses: either for sport, where they can use them on firing ranges or for hunting in approved areas, or for self-protection. The latter is where most people begin to take sides, either arguing for the removal of guns from society or allowing more people to have them. There are organizations and community groups for both sides and both sides have strong feelings.Legally, there are restrictions on gun owners._____68_____. Only certain kinds of weapons can be purchased by the public, and that excludes automatic weapon and military grade weaponry Gun owners must transport their weapon in a safe way, unloaded and in most cases, out of sight. Special—concealed carry permits from the police station must be obtained for people who want to wear weapon, and most people are rejected for this kind of permit. ______69______. Criminals steal guns or buy them illegally to commit crimes, and the news is terrible stories of what happened next. Occasionally a child will get a hold of legal weapon and accidentally hurt themselves or others.It is important to remember, however, that the news stories that make the United States seem like a dangerous place are deceiving; guns are not everywhere or constant.______70_____. After all. America is a safe place to live.IV. Summary Writing 10%Directions: Read the following passage. Summarize the main idea and the mainpoint(s) of the passage in no more than 60 words. Use your own words as far as possible.ShynessIf you suffer from shyness, you are not alone, for shyness is a universal phenomenon. It is not surprising that social scientists are learning more about its causes.The first environmental cause of shyness many be a child’s home and family life. Today’s children are growing up in smaller and smaller families, with fewer and fewer relatives living nearby. Growing up in homes in which both parents work full time, children may not have the socializing experience of frequent visits by neighbours and friends. Because of their lack of social skills, they may begin to feel socially inhibited, or shy, when they start school.A second environmental cause of shyness in an individual may be one’s culture. In a large study conducted in Japan, 57 percent of participants rated themselves as shy. Researchers Henderson and Zimbardo say, “One expectation is that in Japan an individual performance success is credited externally to parents, teachers, and others, while failure is entirely blamed on the person.” Therefore Japanese learn not take risks in public and rely instead on group-shared decisions.Technology may also play a role. In the United States, the number of young people who report being shy has risen from 40 percent to 50 percent in recent years .Due to our huge advances in technology, watching television, playing video games, and surfing the Web have replaced recreational activities that involve social interaction for many young people. Adults, too, are becoming more isolated as a result of technology. Face-to-face interactions with bank clerks, gas station attendants, and shop assistants are no longer necessary because people can use machines to do their banking, fill their gas tanks, and order goods. In short, they become shy.It appears that most people have experienced shyness at some time in their lives. Therefore, if you are shy, you have lots of company.V. Translation 15%Directions: Translate the following sentences into English, using the words given in the brackets.72. 你是否介意代替我去开会吗？（substitute）73. 为了让妈妈睡个好觉，小王把水槽和橱柜擦得干干净净的。

ANot many people are comfortable going deep underground.But humans have been going under-ground for as long as we've been humans.All over the world you'll find all manner of magnificent underground phenomena.Here are our favourite.1.Salt Cathedral of Zipaquira,ColombiaEngineers,miners and sculptors managed to carve a cathedral beneath200meres.Even more amazing is just how spectacular the Salt Cathedralof Zipaquira in Colombia is.The light falls through it,filling the rooms and tunnels with almost neon-like blues and purples.Catch it on a Sunday,and you'll discover it's still a fully-functioning Roman Catholic church.2.Salina Turda,RomaniaBuilt deep below the Earth's surface in a salt mine,Salina Turda features attractions like a panoramic wheel,mini-golf,bowling,table tennis and even boating on a mine lake.What the park lacks in traditional high-thrills roller coasters,it makes up for in stunning scenery.3.Under,NorwayThough not so much underground as underwater,Under in Kristiansand,Norway,this classy restaurant is five and a half metres below the surface.Diners enjoy themselves as icy North Sea cur-rents move across the windows.You neverquite know what might emerge out of the deep.4.Thrihnukagigur,IcelandIf you don't want to climb up to a volcano crater or view it from far away,you can take a lift 700feet down into the volcano.Thrihnukagigur is safe,having not erupted in4,000years,but even so,it takes a certain kind of thrill-seeker to actively want to get up close and personal with a volcano.1.Which of the following serves as a church?A.Under in Norway.B.Salina Turda in Romania.C.Thrihnukagigur in Iceland.D.Salt Cathedral of Zipaquira in Colombia.2.What can visitors do at Under in Norway?A.Ride on a roller coaster or play mini-golf.B.Have dinner in an underwater restaurant.C.See the light fill every room in the church.D.Take a lift and go down into the volcano.3.What makes Thrihnukagigur a safe place to visit?A.It's only open to church people on Sunday.B.It features safe recreational equipment.C.The lift can take visitors in and out fast.D.It's been inactive for thousands of years.BMy sixteen-year-old daughter Julia called twenty minutes after she left,saying she had an accident.I grabbed my shoes and was in the car in less than a minute.When I finally saw her,I hugged her tight.Then I looked at the other driver.Learning that he fell asleep behind the wheel at about seventy miles an hour when the speed limit was forty-five,I could have choked him.“It could have been worse,”I reminded myself as she cried all the way to the doctor's office. Luckily,four days after the accident,Julia felt better.At her appointment,her doctor cleared her to resume normal activities,including driving.But I could tell by her look that she had no intention of getting behind the wheel.Later that day,I sat with Julia as she spoke on the phone with our insurance agent.On the phone,she was professional,telling the agent what had happened in a clear,concise way.I realized she sounded like an adult.And adults drive cars.I realized that no matter how I felt about it, allowing Julia to give in to her fear wasn't good for her.When she hung up,I hugged her.“You're stronger than you think,"I said."And tomorrow you're going to drive my car and meet your friends for lunch.You just have to push through the fear and do it,and it will get easier each time you do.”I ignored the fear in her eyes and the way my heart sped up when I thought about Julia behind the wheel again.The next day,Julia drove my car to meet her friends.As I watched her leave,I felt nervous and proud.She texted me when she got to the restaurant,and I felt my heart rate return to normal.The tears I'd been holding back all week flooded my eyes.Watching her leave the house without me for the first time since the accident was frightening,but it was also necessary.4.What was the author's reaction at the driver's words?A.She almost burst with anger.B.She felt guilty for her daughter.C.She felt sympathy for him.D.She was choked with sorrow.5.What did the doctor suggest to Julia?A.Staying away from driving.B.Attending a driving lesson.C.Contacting the insurance agent.D.Retaking her routine activities.6.What did the author realize when Julia spoke on the phone?A.The driver took the blame for the accident.B.The accident had been worse than expected.C.Julia should overcome the fear to drive.D.Julia was smart to deal with any trouble.7.Why did the author cry at Julia's text?A.Julia was good at learning to drive.B.Julia recovered mentally and physically.C.Julia had supportive friends and parents.D.Julia could look after herself when driving.CAs summer comes,the promise of"working from anywhere"comes down to the discomfort of the sweaty kitchen table,a noisy cafe or the office hot desk.Now hotels are offering"third spaces", promoting the concept of work in an elegant setting.Your columnist Bartleby tried out two recent London offerings.She first headed to Birch,a hotel north of the city.Men and women in their20s and early30s work over laptops and glasses of red wine at its Hub co-working area,with classes in pottery, baking,and other structured activities.Some pay a monthly membership fee and enjoy special discounts to stay there and work digitally remotely,but you can,like Bartleby,come as an overnightguest.Her second destination was the Shangri-La hotel in the Shard,which now offers stays from 10am to6pm,aimed at those wishing to work and relax by offering a change of scenery to inspire.Both Birch and the Shangri-La have their virtues,like Birch's excellent Wi-Fi and the stretch class.So does the Shangri-La,with its pool and a view of St Paul's Cathedral from your room on the38th floor.Yet problems soon became apparent.The first is price.An overnight stay at Birch or the Shangri-La sets you back,while the city has plenty of cheaper“third spaces”.The second problem is:how productive workers can be with all the distractions designed to make work not feel like work?Third,if you can get down to business,you may as well be at home or the office.The friendly atmosphere Birch tries so hard to produce is the very thing you miss by staying away from your office.As with most material indulgences（放纵），a sense of emptiness comes once the freshness of the hotel wears off.Just don't expect white-collar types to crowd in hotels for a hard day's work.Most of the Shangri-La's daytime residents aren't executives keen t inspire.As for Bartleby,you will find her at The Economist's London head office or,failing that,her kitchen table.8.What's the purpose of working"third spaces"?A.To free people of traveling to work.B.To promote workplace creativity.C.To place workers in good work settings.D.To help people deal with the lockdown.9.What's the advantage of Birch according to Bartleby?A.It holds regular work-related classes.B.It provides discounts for companies.C.It has inspiring scenery for visitors.D.It offers day work and night stays.10.What does the Shangri-La offer to office workers?A.Stays there in the working hours.B.Stays overnight for office work.C.The friendly office atmosphere.D.Work-related training courses.11.How does the author like the idea of working from hotels?A.Supportive.B.Disapproving.C.Sympathetic.D.Uncertain.DCar tyres produce particles（微粒）when picking up speed or stopping，which are considered by environmental scientists to be one of the most significant sources of micro-plastics in the ocean.Rain-fall and wind carry them into rivers and the sea.They are also released into the atmosphere,where they can circulate into the ocean and back again.A2020study suggested windblown micro-plastics are a bigger source of ocean pollution than rivers.While it is difficult to pin down the exact composition of micro-plastics,there is plenty of re-search which points to tyre dust making up a significant portion.In2017,a global model found tyre wear to be the second largest source of primary micro-plastics in the ocean,at28%.And in 2019,a report by scientists across Europe concluded abrasion（磨损）from car tyres was a large source of micro-plastics.While there remains a lack of data on risks to the environment and human health,the scientists concluded that if future emissions remain constant or increase,the ecological risks could be widespread within a century.Tyre-wear particles are ubiquitous.The average tyre loses4kg over its lifetime,and tyre particles have been found everywhere from the deep sea to the atmosphere,even in the Arctic and the Antarctic.The study of micro plastic is just beginning.Fewer than 100scientific papers about them have been published to date,all of them in the last decade.Edward Kolodziej,a professor at the University of Washington,cites two studies from China showing that tyre dust is an important contributor to urban air pollution.“There're unknown chemicals present in these things that are ending up in our lungs.”Experts call for more transparency from the tyre companies.“But the formula is what gives a manufacturer competitive advantage.Sharing ingredients is difficult and complicated.Very few people,except manufacturers,know what's in the tyres,”said Allen.“When it comes to micro-plastic,we don't know what a safe level is and we may have already passed it."12.What did the global model find about car tyres?A.They cause more pollution to the sea than to rivers.B.Their exact composition can be tracked down.C.Tyre particles are one of the largest sea pollutants.D.They have caused great risk to human survival.13.What does the underlined word "ubiquitous"in paragraph 3mean?A.Widespread.B.Dangerous.plex.D.Unique.14.What can we infer from Edward's words?A.The two studies from China are leading the fashion.B.The unknown chemicals in the air are dangerous.C.Tyre particles are a major pollutant in the air in cities.D.Further research should be done about tyre particles.15.Which is the most suitable title for the text?A.Tyres Are to Blame as a Pollutant in the OceanB.Tyre Companies Should Act Against Micro-plasticC.Tyre Dust Becomes a Huge Threat to Ocean LifeD.Safety Levels of Micro-plastic Have Been Raised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。

Mountain Warehouse Tor 65L,D. Osprey Europe Farpoint 70L.BAt just seven years old, Angelina Tsuboi discovered her passion for innovation. It all began with a simple game she programmed in her Los Angeles public school's Grade 2class. Today ,at18,the Grade 12 student's initial curiosity has evolved into a deep-seated desire to use technology to decode(解码)real-world problems.In 2021, she co-developed Megaphone, one of her first apps, to tackle unanswered post- class questions and poor communication about events and announcements. Her problem-solving ability kept building from there.When she took online CPR classes at the start of the pandemic, she figured it couldn't be just her who was struggling with the steps. So she created an app called CPR Buddy―a winner in the 2022 Apple Swift Challenge―which guides users through CPR using vibrations(震动) to regulate breath. After winning theaward, Angelina presented her work to Apple CEO Tim Cook, a highlight in her young career, but one she didn't lose her cool over. “There's no point putting people on a pedestal (神坛),”she says.The next year, Angelina built an app called Lilac, designed to assist nonEnglish-speaking single parents with resources for housing, job opportunities and translation support. She was inspired by her own experiences as a child of a single mother who immigrated to the US.When Angelina decided to pursue pilot training at the age of 16, she was struck by how difficult it was to find financial support, which encouraged her to create yet another app, Pilot Fast Track, which helps those longing to be pilots find scholarships for flight training.Looking to the future, besides applying to colleges with great labs, Angelina is exploring the field of aerospace cybersecurity and mechatronics―combining computer science, electrical engineering and mechanical engineering.“There's not enough optimism in the world," she says. “I have also been in situations in my life where I've lost a lot of hope. But in the end, it is a mindset, and there are ways in any situation you're in to make it somewhat better."4.What is Angelina's pursuit?A. To design games for kids.B. To stimulate teen's curiosity.C. To address problems through technology.D. To find innovative approaches to digital challenges.5.What can we learn about Angelina from Paragraph 3?A. She couldn't breathe regularly.B. She was inspired by celebrities.C. She replaced CPR with an app.D. She was humble about her success.6.What was the primary goal of developing Pilot Fast Track?A. To direct pilots' career paths.B. To help to-be pilots find funds.C. To pair future pilots with airlines.D. To evaluate pilot training schools.7. What might be the best title?A. Breaking the codeB. Bearing growing painsC. Facing life as it isD. Following role modelsCSome people today might be early risers because of DNA they take after Neanderthals tens of thousands of years ago, suggests new research.When early humans migrated from Africa to Eurasia roughly 70,000 years ago, some of them mated with Neanderthals, who had already adapted to the colder, darker climates of the north. The ripple(涟漪) effects of that intermating still exist today: Modern humans of non- African ancestry(血统)have between 1 and 4 percent Neanderthal DNA. Some of that DNA relates to sleep more specifically, the internal body clock known as the circadian rhythm.For the new study, researchers compared DNA from today's humans and DNA from Neanderthal fossils(化石).In both groups, they found some of the same genetic variants involved with the circadian rhythm. And they found that modern humans who carry these variants also reported being early risers.For Neanderthals, being “morning people” might not have been the real benefit of carrying these genes. Instead, scientists suggest, Neanderthals’ DNA gave them faster, more flexible internal body clocks, which allowed them to adjust more easily to annual changes in daylight. This connection makes sense in the context of human history. When early humans moved north out of Africa, they would have experienced variable daylight hours--shorter days in the winter and longer days in the summer-for the first time. The Neanderthals' circadian rhythm genes likely helped early humans' offspring(后代)adapt to this new environment.Notably ,the findings do not prove that Neanderthal genes are responsible for the sleep habits of all early risers. Lots of different factors beyond genetics can contribute , including social and environmental influences. The study also only included DNA from a database called the U.K. Biobank-so the findings may not necessarily apply to all modern humans. Next, the research team hopes to study other genetic databases to see if the same link holds true for people of other ancestries. If the findings do apply more broadly , they may one day be useful for improving sleep in the modern world, where circadian rhythms are disturbed by night shifts and glowing smartphones.8.What does the new research focus on?A. DNA's dramatic changes.B. Genes’ influence on early risers.C. Neanderthals’ sleeping patterns.D. Ancestors’ environmental adaptability.9.What is paragraph 2 intended to show concerning the new research?A. Historical context.B. Additional proof.C. Sample analysis.D. Studying process.10. What is the real benefit of carrying Neanderthal's DNA for modern humans?A .Getting up earlier. B. Having healthier daily routines.C. Being more flexible in their work.D. Possessing a better circadian rhythm.11. What can be inferred about the findings from the last paragraph?A. They get proof from other studies.B. They are confirmed by early risers.C. They suggest potential applications.D. They reveal factors in sleeping disorders.DI had to say something after reading The Anxious Generation. It is going to sell well , because Jonathan Haidt is telling a scary story about children's development many parents are led to believe. However, the book's repeated suggestion that digital technologies are rewiring our children's brains and causing the epidemic (流行病)of mental illness is unsupported by science. Worse , the rude proposal that social media is to blame might distract (分心)us from effectively responding to the real causes of the current mental-health crisis in young people.Researchers have searched for the effects suggested by Haidt. Our efforts have produced a mix of no, small and mixed associations. Most data are correlative. When associations over time are found, they suggest not that social-media use predicts or causes depression, but that young people who already have mental-health problems use such platforms more often or in different ways from their healthy peers.We are not alone here. Several analyses and systematic reviews centralize on the same message. An analysis done in 72 countries shows no consistent or measurable associations between well-being and social media globally. Moreover, studies from some authorities finds no evidence of intense changes associated with digital-technology use.As a psychologist studying children's and adolescents’ mental health, I appreciate parents’frustration(沮丧)and desire for simple answers. As a parent of adolescents, I would also like to identify a simple source for the pain this generation is reporting. There are, however, no simple answers. The beginning and development of mental disorders are driven by a complex set of genetic and environmental factors.More young people are talking openly about their mental-health struggles than ever before. But insufficient services are available to address their needs. In the United States, there is, on average, one school psychologist for every 1,119 students. We have a generation in crisis and in desperate need of the best of what science and evidence-based solutions can offer. Unfortunately, our time is being spent telling stories that are unsupported by research and that do little to support young people who need, and deserve, more.12.What is presented in The Anxious Generation?A. Scary stories affect children's brains.B. Parents are responsible for children's health.C. Teen's mental illness results from screen time.D. The epidemic of mental illness is unavoidable.13.What does “the same message ”underlined in paragraph 3 refer to?A. Many countries do research in mental health.B. Well-being and social media are closely related.C. The young are trapped in the mental-health crisis,D. Social media don't necessarily cause mental illness.14. What is implied in the last paragraph?A. Effective actions need to be taken.B. Positive stories should be shared.C. Financial support needs to be provided.D. Broader research should be done.15.What is the author's purpose in writing the text?A. To suggest ways to help those in need.B. To encourage parents to brave the crisis.C. To recommend a newly-published book.D. To give a voice to children's mental issues.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。

ASome books to look forward to in2024The first few months of2024are piled with exciting and interesting reads.If you're looking to get a jump ahead on the holds from your local library,here are just a few books we're looking forward to.James by Percival EverettCelebrated author Percival Everett gives us Huckleberry Finn from Jim's point of view.It's far from a straight re-telling,though.Instead,Everett（but off his2001book Erasure being adapted into the film American Fiction）uses the beats of the original story to give us a send up of language and race.（Pub.March.19）The Familiar by Leigh BardugoThis standalone fantasy was inspired by the best-selling author's own family history.It takes place during the Spanish Golden Age and follows a servant,hiding the fact that she can perform miracles.（Pub.Apr.9）Private Equity by Carrie SunA memoir（回忆录）about the daughter of Chinese immigrants who ended up becoming an assistant to a billionaire hedge fund founder.It's an examination of the hustle and tiring lifestyle that spreads American work culture,and the costs of extreme wealth.（Pub.Feh.13）Legacy by UchéBlackstockUchéBlackstock has had a long career in medicine as a doctor and as a professor of emergency medicine.Her account follows her growing up wanting nothing more than to be doctor,and discovering all parts of the systemic issues that lend to poorer health outcomes for Black Americans.（Pub,Jan.23）1.What do we know about Percival Everett?A.He is famous for film making.B.He wrote James under the name of Jim.C.His works

of life.C.They reflect American work culture.D.They focus on unfair phenomenon in society.3.Which book draws from the writer's family background?A.James.B.The Familiar.C.Private Equity.D.Legacy.BSau Hoyin,a16-year-old student at Hong Kong International School,has devoted the past seven years to writing fiction.He has already published two novels,and a third is on the way.Sau's journey as a writer began in the4th grade when he started a school“passion project”,leading him to create his first novel Pym.This story follows Luke Connors,an ordinary boy who grew into a brave fighter against evil.Sau's fiction evolved with his own personal growth.At the age of13,he created Pyro2.a story when Connors faces challenges that mirror Sau's struggles with math.“I tried to overcome these challenges on my own at first hut finally found that I need to seek the aid of others,”he said.In the novel,Connors learns that in moments of great challenges.seeking help from those around him is a test ament（证明）to growth.Currently,Sun is working on Pyro3,a project enriched by his global travels and diverse cultural experiences.“I treat writing as a way to record my life and express myself.It also helps me to think deeply about various issues,”he said.Sau spends two to three hours on weekends on his writing and around two hour d daily during breaks.To practice his skills,Sau also joined a literary club at school,exchanging insights into his fiction with his peers.“In arts and literature class,our teacher also nurtures（培养）our creativity by teaching creative poetry.”Sau added.For instance,inspired by the English language poem Show With Buddha he learned in class,he wrote Playing Saxophone With the Statue of Liberty in d imagined the statue dropped her torch or a moment,playing jour while thinking about whether the truths of American liberty are really held or not.Sau also shares his essays and poetry on his personal website and takes part in writing competitions.This summer,he won the Harbinger Prize awarded by Harbingers'Magazine,a weekly journal in the US.Next year,Sau will start university and is resolute in his decision to major in literature.“For me,literature is a utopia（乌托邦）where I can not only express myself but also enjoy the beauty of language,its purity and its lasting power.”he said.4.What drove Sou Hoyin'm take up writing?A.A special school program.B.An unforgettable journey.C.His teacher's encouragement.D.His childhood's experience.5.What can we learn from paragraph2?A.Sau is unwilling to learn Math at school.B.Sau's works are

humorous.B.Talented and cautious.C.Hardworking and creative.D.Curious and emotional.7.What can be the best title for the text?A.Sau Hoyin:Words of Growth&AdventureB.Luke Connors:A Brave Fighter against EvilC.A Teen Writer's Dream:Sau Hoyin's Quest for FameD.A Popular Blogger's Rise:Luke Connor's Journey to SuccessCWe breathe,eat and drink tiny particles of plastic.But are these in the body harmless.dangerous or somewhere in between?A small study published on Wednesday in the New England Journal of Medicine raises more questions than it answers about how these hits might affect the heart.The study involved257people who had surgery to clear blocked blood vessels in their ing two methods,researchers found evidence of plastics-mostly invisible nanoplastics—in150patients and no evidence of plastics in107patients.They followed these people for three years.During that time,30or20%of those with plastics had a heart attack,stroke or died from any cause,compared to8or about8%of those with no evidence of plastics.The researchers also found more evidence of inflammation（炎症）in the people with the plastic bits in their blood vessels.Inflammation is the body's response to injury and is thought to raise the risk of heart attacks and stroke.“I hope that the alarming message will raise the consciousness of citizens,especially governments,to finally become aware of the importance of the health of our planet.”said Dr.Raffaele Marfella of the University of Campania in Italy.Nevertheless,the study was very small and looked only at people with narrowed arteries（动脉）,who were already at risk for heart attack and stroke.The patients with the plastics had more heart disease,diabetes and high cholesterol（胆固醇）than the patients without plastics.They were more likely to be men and more likely to be smokers.The researchers tried to adjust for these risk factors during their statistical analysis,but they may have missed important differences between the groups that could account for the results.This kind of study cannot prove that the plastics caused their problems.“More research is needed and it is the first report suggesting a connection between microplastics and nanoplastics with disease in humans,”said Dr.Philip Landrigan of Boston College.Other scientists have found plastic bits in the lungs,liver,blood,and breast milk,“It does not prove cause and effect,but it suggests cause and effect,”he said,“And it needs urgently to be either confirmed or disproven（反驳）by other studies done by other investigators in other populations.”8.What did the study find about the plastics in blood?A.They are visible and detectable.B.They may raise the risk of serious injuries.C.They need to be removed by surgery.D.They may account for a higher rate of heart attacks.9.What did Raffaele Marfella suggest?A.Immediate action should be taken by government.B.Alarming message should be spread widely and quickly.C.The awareness of the harm of plastic bits should be enhanced.D.Joint efforts must be made to keep healthy physically and mentally.10.What does paragraph5mainly talk about regarding the study?A.Limitations.B.Advantages.C.Causes.D.Effects.11.What did Dr.Philip Landrigan think of the study?A.Helpful but unrealistic.B.Pioneering but impractical.C.Distinctive but unnecessary.D.Suggestive but inconclusive.DImagine a bus y restaurant:dishes clattering,music playing and people talking loudly.It's a wonder that anyone in that environment can focus enough.In an earlier study.researchers established that people can separately control how much they focus（by enhancing relevant information）and how much they filter（by tuning out distraction）.Recently,Neuroscientist Ritz compared the process to muscle coordination（协调）in his study:“In the same way that we bring together more than50muscles to perform a physical task like using chopsticks,our study found we can coordinate different forms of attention in order to perform brain activities.”To explore this,Ritz administered a cognitive task to participants while measuring their brain activity. Participants saw a mass of green and purple dots moving left and right.The tasks involved distinguishing between the movement and colors of the dots.For example,participants in one exercise had to select which color was in the majority for the rapidly moving dots with purple and green percentages close to50/50.“You can regard the intraparietal sulcus（脑顶内沟）as a radio dial with two knobs.one for focusing and one for filtering,”Ritz said,“When the anterior cingulate cortex（前扣带皮层）recognizes that,for instance,motion is making the task more difficult,it directs the intraparietal sulcus to adjust the filtering knob to reduce the sensitivity to motion and might also direct the intraparetal sulcus to adjust the focusing knob to increase the sensitivity to color. Now the relevant brain regions are less sensitive to motion and more sensitive to the color,so the participant can make better selection.Nowadays,much is still being explored about attention coordination.A partnership with scientists at Brown University is investigating focus and-filter strategies in patients with treatment-resistant depression;one study co-led by Rita and Brown Ph,D.students examines the impact of financial rewards and penalties（处罚）on focus -and-filter strategies.“We all know there is still a considerable journey ahead.”Ritz said.12.What is the main focus of the new study?A.The process behind brain activities in humans.B.The relationship between mental state and attention.C.The mechanism of focusing and filtering coordination.D.The impart of noisy environment on humans attention.13.What role does the dots'movement play in the task?A.A distractor for participants.B.A tracking target for the test.C.A main factor to evaluate the task.D.A warning for participants to focus.14.What does the underlined word“it”in paragraph4refer to?A.The focusing knob.B.The intraparietal sulcus.C.The filtering knob.D.The anterior cingulate cortes.15.What can we infer from the last paragraph?A.There are some challenges of the attention research.B.Ongoing research projects are based on these findings.C.Focus-and-filter strategies can solve depression problems.D.Motivation ways to drive attention are well applied in treatment.第二节（共5小题；每小题1.5分，满分12.5分）阅读下面短文。
