Eileen Gu — also known by her Chinese name, Gu Ailing — was born in 2003 in San Francisco. Her father is American and her mother is Chinese. Eileen started skiing when she was only three years old and became champion of the junior group of the USA Snowboard and Freeski Association at the age of nine. She earned her first World Cup victory at the FIS Freeski World Cup Slopestyle in Seiser Alm, Italy in January 2019. Then, on June 6 of the same year, she announced that she would be representing China competitively via her Instagram account.
Feb 8 was Gu Ailing’s day, when she won gold in the women’s freestyle skiing big air event at the Beijing 2022 Winter Olympics. Gu made history that day, as it was her first time at the Olympics. It was also the first time a Chinese athlete participated in the contest and struck gold. She was expectedly trending on social networking sites.
Yet, the gold medal is not the only reason behind Gu’s increasing popularity. After the first two rounds, Gu was trailing far behind her French competitor Tess Ledeux. However, she strove hard and made it in her last jump. Besides, when she got gold and Ledeux got silver, Gu was graceful enough to hug the latter in a tight embrace. In interviews after the contest, Gu said she participated in the Winter Olympics not to defeat her rivals but to do her best.
What really helped her win so many hearts was her reaction to difficult questions on Twitter and Facebook, where some asked why she competed for China when she grew up in the United States. She was subjected to similar questions in news conferences before and after the contest, but she breezed through them. Sample some of her answers. “I feel just as American as Chinese. I don’t feel I’m taking advantage of one or another. They understand that my mission is to foster a connection between countries and not be a divisive force.”
Gu came across as not just another athlete, but a woman with a warm heart and an open mind. Her virtues, namely fearlessness, confidence and openness, helped her resonate with audiences on both sides of the Pacific. Maybe those shooting questions at her should learn a little from her.
4. What can we learn about Gu Ailing?
A. She began learning skiing at an early age and soon showed her talent.
B. She earned her first World Cup victory when she was only 14.
C. She publicized her decision to compete for China in an interview.
D. She was the first Chinese athlete to participate in the Olympics.
5. Why did Gu Ailing competed for China regardless of her American background?
A. To win gold medal more easily. B. To win audience’s hearts.
C. To promote the unity between countries. D. To become well-known on social networking sites.
6. What’s the author’s attitude to those shooting questions at Gu Ailing?
A. Admiring. B. Disapproving. C. Understanding. D. Indifferent.
7. What’s the best title of the passage?
A. Gu Ailing—a unique gold winner. B. Gu Ailing—a girl making history.
C. Gu Ailing—an excellent athlete. D. Gu Ailing—a girl competing for China.
【答案】4. A 5. C 6. B 7. B

【导语】这是一篇新闻报道。文章主要介绍了谷爱凌的生平经历、冬奥会夺冠以及她对于代表中国参赛的看法,展现了她作为一位创造历史的运动员的形象。
【4题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段的“Eileen Gu– also known by her Chinese name, Gu Ailing – was born in 2003 in San Francisco. Her father is American and her mother is Chinese. Eileen started skiing when she was only three years old and became champi on of the junior group of the USA Snowboard and Freeski Association at the age of nine.(谷爱凌,中文名谷爱凌,2003年生于旧金山。她的父亲是美国人,母亲是中国人。谷爱凌三岁开始滑雪,九岁时成为美国单板滑雪协会青少年组冠军)”可知,谷爱凌三岁开始滑雪,九岁时成为美国单板滑雪协会青少年组冠军。由此可推知,Gu Ailing很早开始学习滑雪,并且很快就展现出了她的天赋。故选A。
【5题详解】
细节理解题。根据倒数第二段的“I feel just as American as Chinese. I don’t feel I’m taking advantage of one or another. They understand that my mission is to foster a connection between countries and not be a divisive force.(我同样地感到自己既是美国人也是中国人。我并不觉得我在利用其中任何一个身份。他们明白我的使命是促进国家间的联系,而不是成为分裂的力量)”可知,Gu Ailing在采访中表示她的使命是促进国家之间的联系,而不是成为一个分裂的力量,因此她选择代表中国参赛是为了促进国家之间的团结。故选C。
【6题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段的“Her virtues, namely fearlessness, confidence and openness, helped her resonate with audiences on both sides of the Pacific. Maybe those shooting questions at her should learn a little from her.(她的美德,即无畏、自信和开放,帮助她与太平洋两岸的观众产生了共鸣。也许那些向她提出问题的人应该向她学习)”可推知,作者对提问者的态度是不赞成的,认为他们应该向谷爱凌学习。故选B。
【7题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文,尤其是最后一段的“Gu came across as not just another athlete, but a woman with a warm heart and an open mind. Her virtues, namely fearlessness, confidence and openness, helped her resonate with audiences on both sides of the Pacific. (谷爱凌展现出来的不仅仅是一名运动员的形象,而是一位拥有温暖心肠和开放心态的女性。她的美德,包括无畏、自信和开放性,帮助她在太平洋两岸的观众中产生了共鸣)”可知,文章主要谷爱凌不仅在2022年北京冬奥会上夺得了金牌,创造了历史,而且她还以其独特的背景和积极的态度,跨越国界,促进了国家之间的联系。她不仅是一位出色的运动员,更是以自己的行动和话语影响了大众,展现了一种超越体育的精神。所以“谷爱凌——一个创造历史的女孩。”适合作本文的标题。故选B。
C
This morning, while tidying up my office, I found an open box of packaged chocolate cookies that I’d bought sometime last year. The use-by date had come and gone more than eight months ago. Curious, I took a small bite. They still tasted pretty good.
Welcome to the world of ultra-processed (超加工) foods. And we’re eating a lot of them. Ultra-processed foods currently make up nearly 60% of what the typical adult eats, and nearly 70% of what kids eat. They include everything from cookies and sodas to packaged breads and frozen meals, even ice creams. You might not realize you’re eating one, but look close and you’ll see many ingredients you wouldn’t find in your kitchen.
And a large and growing amount of evidence has consistently linked overconsumption of ultra-processed foods to poor health outcomes. “Too much of it leads to obesity and type two diabetes (糖尿病) and heart disease and cancer.” says Christopher Gardner, a professor at Stanford University, who has spent decades studying the links between diet and chronic disease (慢性病).
One reason ultra-processed foods likely lead to health issues seems obvious: They tend to be low in fiber and high in calories, salt, added sugar and fat, which are all linked with poor health outcomes when eaten too much.
Eventually, Gardner says the burden of making healthier food choices shouldn’t fall completely on consumers-especially when it comes to setting kids up for better health long term. “It does need the whole society to pay attention to this, to work together, including the food industry and the government, to be able to reduce the amount of ultra-processed food our kids are consuming in their day,” he says.
8. What does the author want to say in the second paragraphs?
A. Ultra-processed foods preserve the flavor long.
B. Ultra-processed foods have become a big part of our diet.
C. Convenience explains the popularity of ultra-processed foods.
D. A lot of health problems result from consumption of ultra-processed foods.
9. What does the underlined word “overconsumption” in Paragraph 3 probably mean?
A. Overproduction. B. Overselling. C. Overstore. D. Overeating.
10. What is a result of too much ultra-processed food in people’s lives?
A. Fewer diseases. B. Health problems.
C. Dietary changes. D. Market competition.
11. What is Gardner’s suggestion for making kids healthier in the long term?
A. Punish the food industry. B. Reduce kids’ consumption.
C. Unite efforts from all sides. D. Make smarter food choices.
【答案】8. B 9. D 10. B 11. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。w文章主要介绍的是超加工食品的一些问题,过度使用超加工食品会产生健康问题。
【8题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段中的“Ultra-processed foods currently make up nearly 60% of what the typical adult eats, and nearly 70% of what kids eat. They include everything from cookies and sodas to packaged breads and frozen meals, even ice creams.(目前,超加工食品占成年人饮食总量的近60%,占儿童饮食总量的近70%。它们包括从饼干和苏打水到包装面包和冷冻食品,甚至冰淇淋的所有东西)”可知,在日常饮食中,超加工的食品占据了相当大的比例。由此推知,超加工食品已经成为我们生活中重要的一部分。故选B项。
【9题详解】
词句猜测题。根据划线单词后的““Too much of it leads to obesity and type two diabetes(糖尿病) and heart disease and cancer.” says Christopher Gardner, a professor at Stanford University, who has spent decades studying the links between diet and chronic disease (慢性病).(“吃得太多会导致肥胖、二型糖尿病、心脏病和癌症。斯坦福大学教授克里斯托弗·加德纳说。他花了几十年时间研究饮食和慢性病之间的联系)”可知,研究发现,过度使用超级工食品会造成身体健康问题,饮食与慢性疾病之间存在着联系。由此推知,划线单词的意思应是“过多地食用”。故选D项。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中的““Too much of it leads to obesity and type two diabetes (糖尿病) and heart disease and cancer.” says Christopher Gardner, a professor at Stanford University, who has spent decades studying the links between diet and chronic disease (慢性病).(“吃得太多会导致肥胖、二型糖尿病、心脏病和癌症。斯坦福大学教授克里斯托弗·加德纳说。他花了几十年时间研究饮食和慢性病之间的联系)”可知,研究发现,过多使用超加工食品会造成健康问题。由此可知,健康问题是过多使用超加工食品的结果。故选B项。
【11题详解】
细节理解题。根据尾段中的““It does need the whole society to pay attention to this, to work together, including the food industry and the government, to be able to reduce the amount of ultra-processed food our kids are consuming in their day,” he says.( “这确实需要整个社会都关注这一点,共同努力,包括食品行业和政府,以减少我们的孩子们每天消费的超加工食品的数量,”他说)”可知,Gardner认为,要从长远看来,要解决孩子的健康问题,需要的是整个社会引起重视,齐心协力。由此可知,Gardner的建议是团结社会的各方力量。故选C项。
D
A computer programme can identify breast cancer from routine scans with greater accuracy than human experts. Researchers said they hoped this could prove a breakthrough in the fight against the global killer.
Breast cancer is one of the most common cancers in women all over the world, with more than 2 million new diagnoses last year alone. Whether breast cancer is severe is closely related to the time of diagnosis. Therefore, the regular examination is vital in detecting the earliest signs of the disease in patients who show no obvious symptoms.
In Britain, women over 50 are advised to get a mammogram(乳房X光检查) every three years, the results of which are interpreted by two independent experts in order to reduce errors in diagnosis. But interpreting the scans leaves room for error, and a small percentage of all mammograms either return a false positive—misdiagnosing a healthy patient as having cancer or false negative—missing the disease as it spreads.
Now researchers at Google Health have trained an artificial intelligence model to detect cancer in breast scans from thousands of women in Britain and the United States. The images had already been reviewed by doctors in real life but unlike in a clinical setting, the machine had no patient history to inform its diagnoses.
The team found that their AI model could predict breast cancer from the scans with a similar accuracy level to expert radiographers, who are trained to take X-rays. Further, the AI showed a reduction in the percentage of cases where cancer was incorrectly identified—5.7 percent in the US and 1.2 percent in Britain, respectively. It also reduced the percentage of missed diagnoses by 9.4 percent among US patients and by 2.7 percent in Britain.
“The earlier you identify a breast cancer, the better it is for the patient.” Dominic King, UK leading scientist at Google Health, told AFP. “We think about this technology in a way that supports and enables an expert, or a patient ultimately, to get the best outcome from whatever diagnostics(诊断法) they’ve had.”
12. What do we learn about breast cancer?
A. It has become the top killer of all cancers.
B. It is typical for two doctors to analyze the scans together.
C. The program has succeeded in the fight against breast cancer.
D. Its seriousness is strongly connected with the time of its diagnosis.
13. Which of the following is NOT an advantage of the artificial intelligence model?
A. A lower percentage of missed diagnoses.
B. A smaller percentage of mistakenly identified cases.
C. No errors in mammograms being returned in a false result.
D. No requirement for patient history to inform its diagnoses.
14. What can be inferred from Dominic King’s words?
A. The AI model has no delay in the detection of breast cancer.
B. The AI model can be of great help in diagnosing breast cancer.
C. The technology will equip patients with more expert knowledge.
D. Breast cancers can be definitely cured if identified early enough.
15. Which is the main idea of the text?
A. A cure for breast cancer has been confirmed.
B. A breakthrough in AI technology has been made.
C. Researchers trained an AI model to help detect breast cancer.
D. A computer program avoids errors in identifying breast cancer.
【答案】12. D 13. C 14. B 15. C
【解析】

【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段“The images had already been reviewed by doctors in real life but unlike in a clinical setting, the machine had no patient history to inform its diagnoses. (这些图像已经被医生在现实生活中检查过了,但与临床环境不同的是,机器没有病人的病史来进行诊断)”以及第五段“Now researchers at Google Health have trained an artificial intelligence model to detect cancer in breast scans from thousands of women in Britain and the United States. The images had already been reviewed by doctors in real life but unlike in a clinical setting, the machine had no patient history to inform its diagnoses.(该团队发现,他们的人工智能模型可以通过扫描结果预测乳腺癌,准确率与接受过X光拍摄训练的放射技师相当。此外,人工智能还显示,癌症被错误诊断的比例有所下降——美国为5.7%,英国为1.2%。它还将美国患者的漏诊率降低了9.4%,英国患者的漏诊率降低了2.7%)”可知,该人工智能模型的优势是:漏诊率较低,误诊率降低,不要求患者以往病例。选项C“乳房X光检查中没有错误返回错误结果”未提及。故选C。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段““The earlier you identify a breast cancer, the better it is for the patient.” Dominic King, UK leading scientist at Google Health, told AFP. “We think about this technology in a way that supports and enables an expert, or a patient ultimately, to get the best outcome from whatever diagnostics(诊断法) they’ve had.”(“越早发现乳腺癌,对患者就越好。”谷歌Health的英国首席科学家多米尼克·金告诉法新社。“我们认为这项技术能够支持并最终使专家或患者从他们所做的任何诊断中获得最佳结果。”)”可知,该人工智能对于诊断乳腺癌极有帮助。故选B。
【15题详解】

57. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
The Secret of Flowers
Sumiko worked with her mother in their vegetable garden every day. The produce from their garden was sold at the farmer’s market. This is how they made their living. Sumiko’s job was to make sure the daikon radish (白萝卜) plants were never too dry. Each day Sumiko would push her finger into the soil to test for moisture (水分), and then carefully water any plant that needed it. Sumiko often imagined the plants she tended were beautiful chrysanthemums (菊花), like Mrs. Higaki’s prize flowers.
Sumiko envied (羡慕) Mrs. Higaki. If she could sell flowers like Mrs. Higaki, she would be able to buy things for her mother. But chrysanthemums were expensive to start, and Sumiko could only dream about growing them.
One day, Sumiko visited Mrs. Higaki to see her flowers. Mrs. Higaki was checking her chrysanthemums when she arrived. The garden of flowers springing up excited Sumiko.
“I wish I could grow beautiful chrysanthemums and win a prize at the festival like you.”
“You?” Mrs. Higaki laughed. “Child, do you know what’s required to grow such flowers? The secret to growing prize chrysanthemums has been passed down to me from past generations of my family. And you?” She chuckled (轻声笑). “Stick to vegetables, child. Leave flowers to those who know the secret of flowers.”
Mrs. Higaki returned to her gardening, ignoring the sad look on Sumiko’s face. Then she pulled up what looked like a weed (杂草).
“What’s that?” Sumiko asked.
“A shabby (破烂的) plant. Unworthy of my time — too weak to trouble,” Mrs. Higaki said before throwing the shabby plant into the field beside the garden.
Sumiko smiled. She had an idea. She politely said goodbye to Mrs. Higaki and went out the garden gate, quickly picking up the shabby plant before rushing home.
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。
Sumiko found a quiet place and planted the shabby plant carefully.
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
On festival morning, Sumiko jumped with joy upon seeing her little plant flowering.
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】Sumiko found a quiet place and planted the shabby plant carefully. She watered it daily, nurturing it with care and attention. She imagined it would one day grow into a beautiful chrysanthemum, and she was determined to prove Mrs. Higaki wrong. With each passing day, the plant grew stronger and taller, but still it did not resemble a chrysanthemum. However, Sumiko did not give up, and she continued to care for it with love and patience.
On festival morning Sumiko jumped with joy upon seeing her little plant flowering. It was not a chrysanthemum, but a vibrant and unique bloom, its petals a soft pink with delicate white edges. She knew she had achieved something special. She took the flower to the festival, and although it did not win a prize, it did win the admiration of many. Mrs. Higaki, seeing Sumiko’s proud face and the unique flower, realized that the secret of flowers was not just passed down from generation to generation, but also found in the hearts of those who cared deeply for them.
【解析】
【导语】本文以人物为线索展开,讲述了Sumiko与母亲一起种植蔬菜为生,她羡慕能种出美丽菊花的Higaki夫人。一天,她拜访Higaki夫人时,看到夫人丢弃了一株看似弱小的植物。Sumiko心生一计,悄悄将植物带回家,打算自己培育。她希望能种出美丽的菊花,证明自己也能种出与Higaki夫人一样美丽的花朵。
【详解】1.段落续写:
①由第一段首句内容“Sumiko找了一个安静的地方,小心翼翼地种下了那株破旧的植物。”可知,第一段可描写Sumiko细心照料植物,虽然它不像是一株菊花,但Sumiko 并没有放弃,她继续用爱和耐心去照顾它。
②由第二段首句内容“在节日的早晨,Sumiko看到她的小植物开花,高兴地跳了起来。”可知,第二段可描写植物开出了充满生机和独特的花朵。Sumiko带着这朵花去了节日庆典,虽然它没有赢得奖项,但它赢得了Higaki夫人和许多人的赞赏。
2.续写线索:细心培育并满怀期待——坚持不放弃并继续用心照料——植物开出独特的花朵——参加庆典并得到赞赏
3.词汇激活
行为类
①想象:imagine/picture
②开花:flower/bloom
③实现:achieve/accomplish
情绪类
①小心地:carefully/with care
②下决心做:be determined to/make up one’s mind
【点睛】[高分句型1] She watered it daily, nurturing it with care and attention.(运用了现在分词作伴随状语)
[高分句型2] She knew she had achieved something special.(运用了省略连词that的宾语从句)
[高分句型3] She took the flower to the festival, and although it did not win a prize, it did win the admiration of many.(运用了从属连词although引导让步状语从句)

Eileen Gu — also known by her Chinese name, Gu Ailing — was born in 2003 in San Francisco. Her father is American and her mother is Chinese. Eileen started skiing when she was only three years old and became champion of the junior group of the USA Snowboard and Freeski Association at the age of nine. She earned her first World Cup victory at the FIS Freeski World Cup Slopestyle in Seiser Alm, Italy in January 2019. Then, on June 6 of the same year, she announced that she would be representing China competitively via her Instagram account.
Feb 8 was Gu Ailing’s day, when she won gold in the women’s freestyle skiing big air event at the Beijing 2022 Winter Olympics. Gu made history that day, as it was her first time at the Olympics. It was also the first time a Chinese athlete participated in the contest and struck gold. She was expectedly trending on social networking sites.
Yet, the gold medal is not the only reason behind Gu’s increasing popularity. After the first two rounds, Gu was trailing far behind her French competitor Tess Ledeux. However, she strove hard and made it in her last jump. Besides, when she got gold and Ledeux got silver, Gu was graceful enough to hug the latter in a tight embrace. In interviews after the contest, Gu said she participated in the Winter Olympics not to defeat her rivals but to do her best.
What really helped her win so many hearts was her reaction to difficult questions on Twitter and Facebook, where some asked why she competed for China when she grew up in the United States. She was subjected to similar questions in news conferences before and after the contest, but she breezed through them. Sample some of her answers. “I feel just as American as Chinese. I don’t feel I’m taking advantage of one or another. They understand that my mission is to foster a connection between countries and not be a divisive force.”
Gu came across as not just another athlete, but a woman with a warm heart and an open mind. Her virtues, namely fearlessness, confidence and openness, helped her resonate with audiences on both sides of the Pacific. Maybe those shooting questions at her should learn a little from her.
4. What can we learn about Gu Ailing?
A. She began learning skiing at an early age and soon showed her talent.
B. She earned her first World Cup victory when she was only 14.
C. She publicized her decision to compete for China in an interview.
D. She was the first Chinese athlete to participate in the Olympics.
5. Why did Gu Ailing competed for China regardless of her American background?
A. To win gold medal more easily. B. To win audience’s hearts.
C. To promote the unity between countries. D. To become well-known on social networking sites.
6. What’s the author’s attitude to those shooting questions at Gu Ailing?
A. Admiring. B. Disapproving. C. Understanding. D. Indifferent.
7. What’s the best title of the passage?
A. Gu Ailing—a unique gold winner. B. Gu Ailing—a girl making history.
C. Gu Ailing—an excellent athlete. D. Gu Ailing—a girl competing for China.
C
This morning, while tidying up my office, I found an open box of packaged chocolate cookies that I’d bought sometime last year. The use-by date had come and gone more than eight months ago. Curious, I took a small bite. They still tasted pretty good.
Welcome to the world of ultra-processed (超加工) foods. And we’re eating a lot of them. Ultra-processed foods currently make up nearly 60% of what the typical adult eats, and nearly 70% of what kids eat. They include everything from cookies and sodas to packaged breads and frozen meals, even ice creams. You might not realize you’re eating one, but look close and you’ll see many ingredients you wouldn’t find in your kitchen.
And a large and growing amount of evidence has consistently linked overconsumption of ultra-processed foods to poor health outcomes. “Too much of it leads to obesity and type two diabetes (糖尿病) and heart disease and cancer.” says Christopher Gardner, a professor at Stanford University, who has spent decades studying the links between diet and chronic disease (慢性病).
One reason ultra-processed foods likely lead to health issues seems obvious: They tend to be low in fiber and high in calories, salt, added sugar and fat, which are all linked with poor health outcomes when eaten too much.
Eventually, Gardner says the burden of making healthier food choices shouldn’t fall completely on consumers-especially when it comes to setting kids up for better health long term. “It does need the whole society to pay attention to this, to work together, including the food industry and the government, to be able to reduce the amount of ultra-processed food our kids are consuming in their day,” he says.
8. What does the author want to say in the second paragraphs?
A. Ultra-processed foods preserve the flavor long.
B. Ultra-processed foods have become a big part of our diet.
C. Convenience explains the popularity of ultra-processed foods.
D. A lot of health problems result from consumption of ultra-processed foods.
9. What does the underlined word “overconsumption” in Paragraph 3 probably mean?
A. Overproduction. B. Overselling. C. Overstore. D. Overeating.
10. What is a result of too much ultra-processed food in people’s lives?
A. Fewer diseases. B. Health problems.
C. Dietary changes. D. Market competition.
11. What is Gardner’s suggestion for making kids healthier in the long term?
A. Punish the food industry. B. Reduce kids’ consumption.

A computer programme can identify breast cancer from routine scans with greater accuracy than human experts. Researchers said they hoped this could prove a breakthrough in the fight against the global killer.
Breast cancer is one of the most common cancers in women all over the world, with more than 2 million new diagnoses last year alone. Whether breast cancer is severe is closely related to the time of diagnosis. Therefore, the regular examination is vital in detecting the earliest signs of the disease in patients who show no obvious symptoms.
In Britain, women over 50 are advised to get a mammogram(乳房X光检查) every three years, the results of which are interpreted by two independent experts in order to reduce errors in diagnosis. But interpreting the scans leaves room for error, and a small percentage of all mammograms either return a false positive—misdiagnosing a healthy patient as having cancer or false negative—missing the disease as it spreads.
Now researchers at Google Health have trained an artificial intelligence model to detect cancer in breast scans from thousands of women in Britain and the United States. The images had already been reviewed by doctors in real life but unlike in a clinical setting, the machine had no patient history to inform its diagnoses.
The team found that their AI model could predict breast cancer from the scans with a similar accuracy level to expert radiographers, who are trained to take X-rays. Further, the AI showed a reduction in the percentage of cases where cancer was incorrectly identified—5.7 percent in the US and 1.2 percent in Britain, respectively. It also reduced the percentage of missed diagnoses by 9.4 percent among US patients and by 2.7 percent in Britain.
“The earlier you identify a breast cancer, the better it is for the patient.” Dominic King, UK leading scientist at Google Health, told AFP. “We think about this technology in a way that supports and enables an expert, or a patient ultimately, to get the best outcome from whatever diagnostics(诊断法) they’ve had.”
12. What do we learn about breast cancer?
A It has become the top killer of all cancers.
B. It is typical for two doctors to analyze the scans together.
C. The program has succeeded in the fight against breast cancer.
D. Its seriousness is strongly connected with the time of its diagnosis.

A. A lower percentage of missed diagnoses.
B. A smaller percentage of mistakenly identified cases.
C. No errors in mammograms being returned in a false result.
D. No requirement for patient history to inform its diagnoses.
14. What can be inferred from Dominic King’s words?
A. The AI model has no delay in the detection of breast cancer.
B. The AI model can be of great help in diagnosing breast cancer.
C. The technology will equip patients with more expert knowledge.
D. Breast cancers can be definitely cured if identified early enough.
15. Which is the main idea of the text?
A. A cure for breast cancer has been confirmed.
B. A breakthrough in AI technology has been made.
C. Researchers trained an AI model to help detect breast cancer.
D. A computer program avoids errors in identifying breast cancer.

The Secret of Flowers
Sumiko worked with her mother in their vegetable garden every day. The produce from their garden was sold at the farmer’s market. This is how they made their living. Sumiko’s job was to make sure the daikon radish (白萝卜) plants were never too dry. Each day Sumiko would push her finger into the soil to test for moisture (水分), and then carefully water any plant that needed it. Sumiko often imagined the plants she tended were beautiful chrysanthemums (菊花), like Mrs. Higaki’s prize flowers.
Sumiko envied (羡慕) Mrs. Higaki. If she could sell flowers like Mrs. Higaki, she would be able to buy things for her mother. But chrysanthemums were expensive to start, and Sumiko could only dream about growing them.
One day, Sumiko visited Mrs. Higaki to see her flowers. Mrs. Higaki was checking her chrysanthemums when she arrived. The garden of flowers springing up excited Sumiko.
“I wish I could grow beautiful chrysanthemums and win a prize at the festival like you.”
“You?” Mrs. Higaki laughed. “Child, do you know what’s required to grow such flowers? The secret to growing prize chrysanthemums has been passed down to me from past generations of my family. And you?” She chuckled (轻声笑). “Stick to vegetables, child. Leave flowers to those who know the secret of flowers.”
Mrs. Higaki returned to her gardening, ignoring the sad look on Sumiko’s face. Then she pulled up what looked like a weed (杂草).
“What’s that?” Sumiko asked.
“A shabby (破烂的) plant. Unworthy of my time — too weak to trouble,” Mrs. Higaki said before throwing the shabby plant into the field beside the garden.
Sumiko smiled. She had an idea. She politely said goodbye to Mrs. Higaki and went out the garden gate, quickly picking up the shabby plant before rushing home.
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。
Sumiko found a quiet place and planted the shabby plant carefully.

On festival morning, Sumiko jumped with joy upon seeing her little plant flowering.
