B Norwegian playwright and author Jon Fosse has just been awarded the 2023 Nobel Prize in Literature for his"inovative plays and prose which give voice to the unsayable". The Swedish Academy credits Fosse as"one of the most widely performed playwrights in the world", although the 64-year-old originally made his name as a novelist,beginning with Red,Black in 1983.He has since written many works of prose and poetry."His literary works,spanning a variety of genres () comprises about 40 plays and a wealth of novels,poetry collections,essays,children's books and translations," said Anders Olsson,chairman of the Nobel Committee for Literature. Jon Fosse draws inspirationfrom his rural living environment and personal struggles,which have deeply influenced his distinctive writing style.Growing up in a small coastal village,Fosse was immersed in the beauty of nature and the vastess of the sea,which filled him with a sense of solitude and introspection() that is reflected in his works.Fosse's writing discussed themes of loneliness,longing,and the search for meaning in life.Additionally,his batles with depression have enabled him to explore the depths of human cmotions and existential despair. "He touches you so deeply when you read his works,"said Anders Olsson."What is special about him is the closeness in his writing.It touches your deepest feelings-anxieties,insecurities,questions of life and death-which are things that every human being actually faces from the very beginning.In that sense I think he reaches very far and there is a sort of a universal impact of everything that he writes-it has appeal to this basic humanity." Fosse is the first-ever laureate writing in Nynorsk,one of the two official languages of Norwegian,but only used by just 10%of the population.As the Guardian writes,"Many Nynorsk speakers see Fosse 'as a kind of national hero'for his championing of the language."Fosse's recognition on a global stage promotes the visibility and importance of Nynorsk as a written standard.It will attract more attention to Nynorsk literature,inspire and encourage Nynorsk speakers to continue preserving and promoting their linguistic heritage. 24.What do we know about Jon Fosse from paragraph 2? A.His most popular work is the play Red.Black. B.He accomplished various genres of literature works. C.Many famous plays are the inspiration for his writing. D.His language skills eared him the Nobel Prize in Literature. 25.What does paragraph 3 mainly talk about? 2024年武议市部分高中高三起，点考议英语议卷 第3页共8页 CS扫描全能王 】亿人都在用的目猫AP时 A.Jon Fosse's tough experiences.

B.They touch human's deepest emotions. C.They show the bond between humans and naturc.

B.He has improved the intemational status of Norway. C.He promotes the development and prescrvation of Nynorsk. D.He shapes the basic writing standard of Norwegian literature. C It's one of the most common questions adults ask children:what do you want to be when you grow up? Although childhood is supposed to be fun,kids also discuss important topics regarding their futures.Now,a new study finds that children who set big goals regarding their future status and education often set themselves up for success as they age. The findings,published in the Journal of Personality and Social Psychology,are the first to reveal a connection between life goal development and future success in school or the workplace.Rodica Damian,an associate professor of psychology at the University of Houston,and other researchers discovered that as children grow up,their goals naturally begin to change.However,as some childhood goals fall away,other goals related to a family stay strong.These include being close to relatives,building more friendships or finding a romantic partner,and even becoming more involved in your community or helping others. During the study,researchers compared how their goals evolved as children moved from adolescence to adulthood and how a person's goals impacted their success in school and as an employee later on.Overall,a child's goals focusing on their education and future status were the most consistent predictors of income in adulthood.Simply put,when a child dreams big about doing well in school or achieving great success as an adult,these goals accurately paint a picture of how successful these children will be.So,the message is simple:dream big and dream of success,kids!Those goals can drive you to success when you grow up! "Our work proves a strong connection between a child's life goals,educational achievement,and future occupational outcomes.This information is valuable for parents and educators who can use it to encourage children to set ambitious goals.Additionally,it helps develop strategies to support individuals in achieving their goals and reaching their full potential,"Damian concludes. 28.What does the study mainly focus on? A.Why children change their dreams over time B.Whether childhood goals relate to future success. C.Whether early education determines future career. D.How childhood experiences impact a person's choice. 29.Which of the following goals remains strong as children grow up? A.Connecting with others. B.Achieving academic success. 2024年武汉市部分高中高三起，点考试英语试卷 第4页共8页 CS扫描全能王 】亿人都在用的归猫AP时 C.Hunting for a high-salary job D.Improving personal social status. 30.What message does the author convey in paragraph 3? A.Dreaming big is potentially associated with success. B.Childhood achievements greaty afect future careers. C.Educational goals may be more achievable than others. D.Adjusting goals can create new opportunities for success. 31.What is the purpose of the last paragraph? A.To explain the purpose of the study. B.To offer suggestions for future studies. C.To stress the significance of the study. D.To point out the limitations of the study. D Spiders are master builders,expertly turning silk into complex 3D webs that serve as their home and bunting ground.To gain a decper understnnding of their world.scientists have tanslated the structure of a spider's web into music.which could have applications ranging from better 3D printers to cross-species communication. "The spider lives in an environment of vibrating strings,"says Markus Buehler,the project's principal investigator."They don't see very well,so they perccive their surroundings by detecting vibrations,which have different frequencies."Such vibrations occur,for example,when the spider stretches a strand of silk during construction or when the wind or a trapped fly moves the web. The researchers scanned a natural spider web to capture 2D cross-sections and recomstructed its 3D network using a mathematical model.They assigned different frequcncies of sound to strands of the web. creating musical"notes"that they combined in patterns based on the web's 3D structure to generate music. Then they made a harp-like virtual instrument and played the spider web music in several live performances around the world,creating an inspiring harmony of art and science. To gain insights into how spiders build webs.the researchers also scanned a web during construction. transforming each stage into music with different sounds."The spider's way of 'printing'the web is remarkable because no support material is used,as is often needed in current 3D printing methods,"Buehler says.This knowledge could help develop new 3D printers that work like spiders.enabling them to construct complex structures without using additional materials for support. The team is also interested in leamning how to communicate with spiders in their own language.They recorded web vibrations produced when spiders performed different activities.such as building a web. communicating with other spiders or sending signals to admirers."Now we're trying to generate signals to basically speak the language of the spider,"Buehler says."If we expose them to certain pattems of vibrations. can we affect what they do or can we begin to communicate with them?Those are really thrilling ideas,and I believe they could be achieved in the ncar future." 32.What do we know about spiders? A.They have good eyesight. B.They adapt to surroundings quickly. C.They spin a web similar to a musical structure. D.They sense the environment through vibrations. 33.What is paragraph 3 mainly about? A.Steps to create spider web music. B.Ways to recreate a web's 3D network. C.Challenges of combining music with science. 2024年武议市部分高中高三起，点考试英语试卷 第5页共8页 CS扫描全能王 】亿人都在用的目播AP时 D.The potential applications of 3D printing methods. 34.What does"This knowledge"in paragraph 4 refer to? A.3D printers can construct complex structures. B.Spiders'vibration patters vary with activitics. C.Spiders build webs without using additional matcrials. D.The web-building process be translated into music. 35.Which word can best describe Buchler's attitude towards communicating with spiders? A.Compromising. B.Disapproving. C.Doubtful.
