In the calm and traditional world of classical music, composer Tan Dun is something of a rock star. Born in 1957 in a village near Changsha, Tan Dun worked as a rice planter in his early years. While music was strongly discouraged within the rice-planting communities, Tan learnt to play traditional Chinese stringed instruments with his friends and eventually joined a local band.
But the transition from hobby to career came about through a tragic (不幸的) tum of events. After several members of a Peking Opera troupe (剧团) drowned in a boat accident, Tan was hired to work as an arranger and violinist. The time at the troupe proved successful and Tan got the attention of Central Conservatory of Music (CCOM) where he was accepted as a student in 1977. Years later, he further studied at New York’s Columbia University.
Under the teaching of famous composers around the word, Tan launched his international career through a series of modern operas. With the knowledge of eastern and western classical music, he composed Marco Polo, an abstract retelling of the 13th-century Venetian explorer’s life through eastern and western instruments.
Tan has composed symphonies and operas that have been performed in some of the world’s most famous theaters. He has also contributed the scores (配乐) to six films, including 2000’s Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, as well as several experimental multimedia projects. Such achievements have brought him great rewards, including Oscar, Grammy and Bafta awards, as well as the honor of Composer of Year, presented by classical music magazine Musical America.

A. Farmer. B. Arranger. C. Violinist. D. Composer.

Everyone has “down days”. Maybe it’s because of the bad weather, or the disappointing grades on a difficult test, and some days teenagers just act uninterested in life or school. But these symptoms(症状) often pass quickly, as teens move on to new school subjects, or meet with friends to prevent themselves from thinking what troubles them at the moment. But if a teenager displays symptoms of sadness for more than two lasting weeks, it might point to something serious.
As teenagers develop, they push new boundaries(边界), complain about rules and look for more free rights from their parents. According to the online Health Guide on Adolescent Development, parents must be lasting figures in their teenagers’ life, providing safe boundaries for teens to grow, even if the teenagers act like these boundaries are unwanted.
Parents need to provide rules, while also remaining flexible(灵活的) and respectful of the growing teens’ need for freedom. For example, teenagers will often feel frustrated, embarrassed, and even angry that thought they want freedom, they still need to ask their parents for an agreement to go to a friend’s house, or need their mothers to take them to school.
The US Department of Education says that parents should respect and support their teen’s choices as long as those choices won’t have long-term harmful effects. For example, even if a parent doesn’t enjoy the music his or her teen listens to, it’s unlikely that the choice of music will prevent that teen from entering a good college, or lead to health problems. However, if that teen is drinking alcohol and driving, parents must get through strict punishments to teach that there are bad results for poor choices that come with increased freedom.
8. Why do teen’s feelings of bad days usually disappear quickly?
A. Their teachers help them.
B. They take some medicine.
C. Their parents talk with them.
D. They change their attention.
9. What does the example in paragraph 3 show?
A. Freedom must be given at anytime.
B. Teens are mad at being controlled.
C. Teens need both freedom and proper rules.
D. Rules must be absolutely strict for teens.
10. What should parents do about their teens’ choices?
A. Support their helpful hobbies. B. Tell them which college to attend.
C. Cancel their after-school activities. D. Get them away from singing pop songs.
11. What is the best title for the text?
A. How to Be With Growing Teens
B. Causes of Teens’ Sadness
C. Teens’ Worries About Strict Rules
D. The Importance of Making Friends With Teens
【答案】8. D 9. C 10. A 11. A
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要谈论了父母如何与成长中的青少年相处。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中“But these symptoms(症状) often pass quickly, as teens move on to new school subjects, or meet with friends to prevent themselves from thinking what troubles them at the moment. (但这些症状通常很快就会消失,因为青少年开始学习新的课程,或与朋友见面,以防止自己思考当前的困扰。)”可知,青少年对不愉快的感觉会很快消失是因为他们改变了注意力。故选D项。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段中“Parents need to provide rules, while also remaining flexible(灵活的) and respectful of the growing teens’ need for freedom. For example, teenagers will often feel frustrated, embarrassed, and even angry that thought they want freedom, they still need to ask their parents for an agreement to go to a friend’s house, or need their mothers to take them to school. (父母需要制定规则,同时也要保持灵活性,尊重成长中的青少年对自由的需求。例如,青少年经常会感到沮丧,尴尬,甚至生气,尽管他们想要自由,他们仍然需要征求父母的同意去朋友家,或需要他们的母亲送他们去学校。)”可知,举例是为了说明青少年既需要自由又需要适当的规则。故选C项。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段中“The US Department of Education says that parents should respect and support their teen’s choices as long as those choices won’t have long-term harmful effects. (美国教育部表示,父母应该尊重和支持青少年的选择,只要这些选择不会产生长期的有害影响。)”可知,对于青少年,父母应该支持他们有益的爱好。故选A项。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文,尤其根据第二段中“According to the online Health Guide on Adolescent Development, parents must be lasting figures in their teenagers’ life, providing safe boundaries for teens to grow, even if the teenagers act like these boundaries are unwanted. (根据在线的《青少年发展健康指南》,父母必须在青少年的生活中扮演持久的角色,为青少年的成长提供安全的边界,即使青少年表现得好像这些边界是不需要的。)”可知,本文主要谈论了父母如何与成长中的青少年相处。选项A符合文章主题,故选A项。
D
In the book Consciousness Explained, the cognitive (认知的) scientist Daniel Dennett describes a kind of fish, which wanders through the sea looking for a suitable rock to make its home for life. On finding one, the fish no longer needs its brain and eats it. Humanity is unlikely to adopt such an eating habit but there is a worrying trend that people are dumping themselves down by becoming overly dependent on “intelligent” machines, especially when ChatGPT comes out.
Since its launch in November 2022, ChatGPT has drawn 1 million people to register during the first week. Its allure is obvious: ChatGPT can produce jokes, write undergraduate essays and create computer code from a short writing prompt (提示).
But this is a false impression. Computers have become more capable but they lack genuine thinking, developed in humans through constant social practices. ChatGPT does not know what it is doing; it is unable to say how or why it produced a response; and cannot tell if it is making sense. So why all the fuss? Google’s new Al-powered search tool, Bard was released in March 2023, making its ambition obvious in its promotional video. The profit-driven competition to fill our daily lives with artificial intelligence is becoming increasingly fierce.
Humans have a long track of turning a blind eye to the risks of new breakthroughs. Web companies want to draw their users to think extremely highly of their Al tools, encouraging humanity to think them far beyond human’s cognitive competence. As we know, the rise of civilization through art and agriculture contributes mostly to the remarkable human mental powers. No one knows what will happen to such technologies if the software engineers of the future make themselves become software programs. Maybe the danger is not machines being treated like humans, but humans being treated like machines.
12. Why does the author mention “the fish” in the first paragraph?
A. To stress the importance of intelligent machines.
B. To introduce a new kind of eating habit in animals.
C. To compare with human’s unwillingness to think.
D. To praise the excellence of human thinking ability.
13. What does the underlined word “allure” mean in the second paragraph?
A. Target. B. Attraction. C. Weakness. D. Access.
14. What can be inferred from the last two paragraphs?
A. Computers are skilled at completing cognitive tasks.
B. Making money is not so important in the AI competition.
C. Machines and humans should be treated equally.
D. Web companies want the users to overstate AI tools.
15. What does the text mainly talk about?
A. ChatGPT has both benefits and risks.
B. Human depends overly on intelligent tools.
C. More intelligent technology is always better.
D. Human’s cognitive competence is irreplaceable.
【答案】12. C 13. B 14. D 15. B
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文,主要讲的是人们正因过度依赖“智能”机器而使自己陷入困境,尤其是在ChatGPT问世之后。文章介绍了ChatGPT的受欢迎情况以及长期以来人类一直对人工智能新突破带来的风险视而不见。
【12题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段“In the book Consciousness Explained, the cognitive (认知的) scientist Daniel Dennett describes a kind of fish, which wanders through the sea looking for a suitable rock to make its home for life. On finding one, the fish no longer needs its brain and eats it. Humanity is unlikely to adopt such an eating habit but there is a worrying trend that people are dumping themselves down by becoming overly dependent on “intelligent” machines, especially when ChatGPT comes out.(在Consciousness Explained一书中,认知科学家Daniel Dennett描述了一种鱼,它在海洋中徘徊,寻找合适的岩石作为生命的家园。一找到,鱼就不再需要它的大脑,把大脑吃掉。人类不太可能养成这样的饮食习惯,但有一种令人担忧的趋势:人们正因过度依赖“智能”机器而使自己陷入困境,尤其是在ChatGPT问世之后。)”可推知,作者在第一段提到“鱼”是为了与人类不愿意思考相比。故选C。
【13题详解】
词句猜测题。根据后文“ChatGPT can produce jokes, write undergraduate essays and create computer code from a short writing prompt (提示).(ChatGPT可以制作笑话、撰写本科生论文,还可以根据简短的写作提示创建计算机代码。)”可知,后文主要列举了ChatGPT的吸引力所在,故划线词意思是“吸引力”,和attraction意思相近。故选B。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“Web companies want to draw their users to think extremely highly of their Al tools, encouraging humanity to think them far beyond human’s cognitive competence.(网络公司希望吸引他们的用户对他们的人工智能工具给予极高的评价,鼓励人类认为它们远远超出了人类的认知能力。)”可推知,网络公司在误导用户夸大AI工具的认知能力。故选D。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段“Humanity is unlikely to adopt such an eating habit but there is a worrying trend that people are dumping themselves down by becoming overly dependent on “intelligent” machines, especially when ChatGPT comes out.(人类不太可能养成这样的饮食习惯,但有一种令人担忧的趋势:人们正因过度依赖“智能”机器而使自己陷入困境,尤其是在ChatGPT问世之后。)”,结合文章介绍了ChatGPT的受欢迎情况以及长期以来,人类一直对人工智能新突破带来的风险视而不见,人类被当作机器对待可知,这篇文章主要讲了人类过度依赖智能工具。故选B。
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。选项中有两项为多余选项。
The best things in life might be free, but most things cost money. Being aware of how money gets spent will help kids make wiser decisions. When you teach your child about money, you’ll need to include several building blocks, such as how to value a dollar and how to earn money. ____16____
What Is Money?
Money is an accepted form of payment for goods and services. ____17____ The U.S. dollar is one system. The euro is another. Within these systems, people use paper or coin money, bank accounts, credit cards and more to exchange for goods and services.
____18____
Broadly speaking, you should teach your kids three main skills: how to identify, use and grow their money. These concepts (概念) might seem basic to adults, but kids won’t learn about them quickly without someone to teach them.
When Should I Teach Kids about Money?
____19____ Here are several money milestones you can expect your children to understand by age:
Toddlers to school age (2-5): Counting from one to a hundred lays the foundation for understanding money, as does an ability to sort objects by shape and color, being independent, and imitating the actions of adults.
Middle childhood (6-8): Middle childhood money concepts rely on toddlers’ ability to start counting money, setting them up to learn the cost of money. Your child should already count coins and bills by the end of third grade.
Tweens (9-12): Tweens become more independent of the family wanting to receive (or earn) an allowance (零用钱) to do things they want with their friends. ____20____ Furthermore, with their newfound money, they should develop a sense of responsibility for themselves and their place in the world.
A. How Should I Teach Kids about Money?
B. What Should I Teach Kids about Money?
C. Currency is a particular system of money.
D. They may want to use the money to buy toys.
E. But the first step is teaching them the definition of money.
F. This sets a stage for them to understand what to and not to do with money.
G. You can teach your kids about money as soon as they learn not to put it in their mouth.
【答案】16. E 17. C 18. B 19. G 20. F
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了对孩子进行金钱观教育的一些方法及建议。
【16题详解】
根据上文“When you teach your child about money, you’ll need to include several building blocks, such as how to value a dollar and how to earn money.(当你教你的孩子关于金钱的知识时,你需要包括几个基本要素,比如如何估价一美元以及如何赚钱)”可知,E项中的the definition of money对应下一段小标题“What Is Money?(钱是什么?)”表示在向孩子介绍金钱的构成要素之前,首先是要教会孩子理解金钱的概念,故E选项“但是第一步是教他们金钱的定义”符合语境,故选E。
【17题详解】
根据小标题“What Is Money?(钱是什么?)”以及后文“The U.S. dollar is one system. The euro is another. Within these systems, people use paper or coin money, bank accounts, credit cards and more to exchange for goods and services.(美元是一个体系。欧元是另一个例子。在这些系统中,人们使用纸币或硬币、银行账户、信用卡等来交换商品和服务)”可知,本段主要介绍什么是金钱,故C选项“货币是一种特殊的货币体系”符合语境,故选C。
【18题详解】
根据本段内容“Broadly speaking, you should teach your kids three main skills: how to identify, use and grow their money. These concepts (概念) might seem basic to adults, but kids won’t learn about them quickly without someone to teach them.(一般来说,你应该教给你的孩子三个主要技能:如何识别、使用和增长他们的钱。这些概念对成年人来说可能是基本的,但如果没有人教,孩子们是不会很快学会的)” 可知,作者在该段中提出家长应该教会孩子与金钱相关的三种技能,因此本段关注的是What Should I Teach Kids about Money?这一问题,故B选项“关于钱,我应该教孩子什么?”符合语境,故选B。
【19题详解】
根据小标题“When Should I Teach Kids about Money?( 我应该什么时候教孩子关于金钱的知识?)”以及下文列举一些不同的年龄阶段可知,设空处应引入向孩子介绍金钱的合适时间,G项中的as soon as they learn not to put it in their mouth与该部分的小标题相呼应。故G选项“一旦你的孩子学会了不把钱放进嘴里,你就可以教他们关于钱的事情”符合语境,故选G。
【20题详解】
F项中的This 指代空前句“Tweens become more independent of the family wanting to receive(or earn) an allowance to do things they want with their friends.(青少年变得更加独立于家庭,想要得到(或赚取)零用钱来和朋友一起做他们想做的事情)”这一情况,空后句中的Furthermore体现前后文的递进关系,即不仅仅是了解如何使用金钱,还要培养一种责任感。故F选项“这为他们理解用钱该做什么和不该做什么奠定了基础”符合语境,故选F。

47. 阅读下面的材料, 根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段, 使之构成一篇完整的短文。
One day Albert found a baby bird lying on the ground, squawking (叫喊) for help. Feeling sad for the bird, Albert petted it gently and wanted to help it, but he didn’t know how since he was just 7 years old. So he took the bird in his hands, carried it carefully home and showed it to his parents. At once, his parents took action. They washed the bird and found it injured. With the help of his parents, Albert dressed the wound. But it would need time and care for the bird to completely recover. As the bird had become dear to his heart, Albert immediately offered to care for the bird.
Albert named his new friend “Lucky”. He began to feed the bird and he even ran out to collect grass to build a soft nest for the bird. Then, he put the nest beside his bed. Albert and the bird were sleeping together and living together. Soon they became close friends. Albert always told it about his experiences in school and his secrets. Lucky, an extremely patient audience, usually responded to him with a few nods and chirps (叽叽喳喳声). Albert’s parents also loved Lucky. They regarded it as a family member.
In the course of time, Lucky gradually recovered and started to hop (脚跳) and jump a little bit and exercise its wings. That made everyone happier. Soon it would be able to fly. How wonderful!
But what then? Albert became thoughtful and started to think. “If Lucky started to fly, it could simply fly away one day.” But that would not happen. Albert loved his friend so much that he couldn’t imagine parting with it. He wondered, “I should surely stay with Lucky forever. But how? Keep the windows closed all the time? That was not practical.”
注意:1. 续写词数应为150个左右;
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Then, he bought a small cage and kept Lucky in it.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Knowing the bad situation, Albert’s parents decided to help Lucky and their son.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】Then, he bought a small cage and kept Lucky in it. In the beginning, Lucky seemed fine inside it. He believed he had made the right choice to keep Lucky close and secure. However, as time passed, things took a turn for the worse. After a fully recovery, Lucky wanted to spread its wings and fly in the sky. When all its attempts failed, what Lucky could do was sitting inside the little cage and squawking sadly. Several days later, Lucky refused to eat and drink. Worried and confused, he didn’t know what to do about it.
Knowing the bad situation, Albert’s parents decided to help Lucky and their son. They told their son, “If you really love Lucky, you should think of how to make it happy.” After careful consideration, Albert opened both his heart and the cage. Lucky was released and flew away. Two weeks later, a wonderful thing happened: Lucky returned, flying around Albert and chirped happily, seeming to say thanks to him. This had happened from time to time since then. Instead of losing a forced friend, Albert had made a permanent one.

In the calm and traditional world of classical music, composer Tan Dun is something of a rock star. Born in 1957 in a village near Changsha, Tan Dun worked as a rice planter in his early years. While music was strongly discouraged within the rice-planting communities, Tan learnt to play traditional Chinese stringed instruments with his friends and eventually joined a local band.
But the transition from hobby to career came about through a tragic (不幸的) tum of events. After several members of a Peking Opera troupe (剧团) drowned in a boat accident, Tan was hired to work as an arranger and violinist. The time at the troupe proved successful and Tan got the attention of Central Conservatory of Music (CCOM) where he was accepted as a student in 1977. Years later, he further studied at New York’s Columbia University.
Under the teaching of famous composers around the word, Tan launched his international career through a series of modern operas. With the knowledge of eastern and western classical music, he composed Marco Polo, an abstract retelling of the 13th-century Venetian explorer’s life through eastern and western instruments.
Tan has composed symphonies and operas that have been performed in some of the world’s most famous theaters. He has also contributed the scores (配乐) to six films, including 2000’s Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, as well as several experimental multimedia projects. Such achievements have brought him great rewards, including Oscar, Grammy and Bafta awards, as well as the honor of Composer of Year, presented by classical music magazine Musical America.
4. What was Tan Dun’s job in his early years?
A. Farmer. B. Arranger. C. Violinist. D. Composer.
5. Why was Tan accepted into CCOM?
A. His study in New York. B. His success in the troupe.
C. His achievement in scores. D. His experience in Changsha.
6. How did the author develop the text?

C. By following the order of space. D. By following the order of time.
7. What can we learn from the last two paragraphs?

Everyone has “down days”. Maybe it’s because of the bad weather, or the disappointing grades on a difficult test, and some days teenagers just act uninterested in life or school. But these symptoms(症状) often pass quickly, as teens move on to new school subjects, or meet with friends to prevent themselves from thinking what troubles them at the moment. But if a teenager displays symptoms of sadness for more than two lasting weeks, it might point to something serious.
As teenagers develop, they push new boundaries(边界), complain about rules and look for more free rights from their parents. According to the online Health Guide on Adolescent Development, parents must be lasting figures in their teenagers’ life, providing safe boundaries for teens to grow, even if the teenagers act like these boundaries are unwanted.
Parents need to provide rules, while also remaining flexible(灵活的) and respectful of the growing teens’ need for freedom. For example, teenagers will often feel frustrated, embarrassed, and even angry that thought they want freedom, they still need to ask their parents for an agreement to go to a friend’s house, or need their mothers to take them to school.
The US Department of Education says that parents should respect and support their teen’s choices as long as those choices won’t have long-term harmful effects. For example, even if a parent doesn’t enjoy the music his or her teen listens to, it’s unlikely that the choice of music will prevent that teen from entering a good college, or lead to health problems. However, if that teen is drinking alcohol and driving, parents must get through strict punishments to teach that there are bad results for poor choices that come with increased freedom.
8. Why do teen’s feelings of bad days usually disappear quickly?
A. Their teachers help them.
B. They take some medicine.
C. Their parents talk with them.
D. They change their attention.
9. What does the example in paragraph 3 show?
A. Freedom must be given at anytime.
B. Teens are mad at being controlled.
C Teens need both freedom and proper rules.
D. Rules must be absolutely strict for teens.
10. What should parents do about their teens’ choices?
A. Support their helpful hobbies. B. Tell them which college to attend.
C. Cancel their after-school activities. D. Get them away from singing pop songs.
11. What is the best title for the text?
A. How to Be With Growing Teens
B. Causes of Teens’ Sadness
C. Teens’ Worries About Strict Rules
D. The Importance of Making Friends With Teens

In the book Consciousness Explained, the cognitive (认知的) scientist Daniel Dennett describes a kind of fish, which wanders through the sea looking for a suitable rock to make its home for life. On finding one, the fish no longer needs its brain and eats it. Humanity is unlikely to adopt such an eating habit but there is a worrying trend that people are dumping themselves down by becoming overly dependent on “intelligent” machines, especially when ChatGPT comes out.
Since its launch in November 2022, ChatGPT has drawn 1 million people to register during the first week. Its allure is obvious: ChatGPT can produce jokes, write undergraduate essays and create computer code from a short writing prompt (提示).
But this is a false impression. Computers have become more capable but they lack genuine thinking, developed in humans through constant social practices. ChatGPT does not know what it is doing; it is unable to say how or why it produced a response; and cannot tell if it is making sense. So why all the fuss? Google’s new Al-powered search tool, Bard was released in March 2023, making its ambition obvious in its promotional video. The profit-driven competition to fill our daily lives with artificial intelligence is becoming increasingly fierce.
Humans have a long track of turning a blind eye to the risks of new breakthroughs. Web companies want to draw their users to think extremely highly of their Al tools, encouraging humanity to think them far beyond human’s cognitive competence. As we know, the rise of civilization through art and agriculture contributes mostly to the remarkable human mental powers. No one knows what will happen to such technologies if the software engineers of the future make themselves become software programs. Maybe the danger is not machines being treated like humans, but humans being treated like machines.

One day Albert found a baby bird lying on the ground, squawking (叫喊) for help. Feeling sad for the bird, Albert petted it gently and wanted to help it, but he didn’t know how since he was just 7 years old. So he took the bird in his hands, carried it carefully home and showed it to his parents. At once, his parents took action. They washed the bird and found it injured. With the help of his parents, Albert dressed the wound. But it would need time and care for the bird to completely recover. As the bird had become dear to his heart, Albert immediately offered to care for the bird.
Albert named his new friend “Lucky”. He began to feed the bird and he even ran out to collect grass to build a soft nest for the bird. Then, he put the nest beside his bed. Albert and the bird were sleeping together and living together. Soon they became close friends. Albert always told it about his experiences in school and his secrets. Lucky, an extremely patient audience, usually responded to him with a few nods and chirps (叽叽喳喳声). Albert’s parents also loved Lucky. They regarded it as a family member.
In the course of time, Lucky gradually recovered and started to hop (脚跳) and jump a little bit and exercise its wings. That made everyone happier. Soon it would be able to fly. How wonderful!
But what then? Albert became thoughtful and started to think. “If Lucky started to fly, it could simply fly away one day.” But that would not happen. Albert loved his friend so much that he couldn’t imagine parting with it. He wondered, “I should surely stay with Lucky forever. But how? Keep the windows closed all the time? That was not practical.”
注意:1. 续写词数应为150个左右;
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Then, he bought a small cage and kept Lucky in it.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Knowing the bad situation, Albert’s parents decided to help Lucky and their son.
