(限时：30分钟) Ⅰ.阅读理解 A (2024·山东省潍坊市四县模拟)When you step off the elevator on the fourth floor of Kentucky Children's Hospital (KCH)，you're greeted by a magical unicorn (独角兽) in a combination of greens，blues，and purples. It is an art piece created by the staff of KCH and UK Arts in Health Care.This unicorn roughly five feet tall and six feet wide，is made up of nothing but thousands of vial (药水瓶) caps，oral injector caps，and tubes to create an image of a unicorn，silently greeting and comforting every patient and visitor. The idea for this unicorn was inspired by Tilda Shalof，a nurse in Canada who spent nearly 30 years collecting abandoned medical plastic to create a colorful creature.KCH nurses approached the Child Life staff about creating something analogous for their hospital.The staff agreed，and collection of plastic began. Soon the collection numbered in the thousands，but the question remained — what would this become? After many meetings and discussions，KCH staff settled on the idea of a unicorn.After all，unicorns become the source where all dreamy thoughts can blossom.Meeting a unicorn and making friends with it could be so appealing to children.More than stories about the healing (治愈) power，for children，a unicorn might even have the magic power to change anything. Lexington artist Christine Kuhn joined the team to provide guidance on the design and construction process，but the work was done entirely by KCH staff who volunteered their time.“As the unicorn started to take shape，it became even clearer that many hands were present in the artwork，” said Joey Burke，a nurse ethicist.“Several music therapists asked if they could add a guitar pick and a member of the maintenance crew added a wire nut.In the end，medical waste became fantastic as the unicorn took shape.” When completed，this grand creature needed a name，so a contest was held among KCH staff and patients.The name with the most votes was Unity “MoonPie” McSparkles. 【语篇解读】　本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了肯塔基儿童医院的护士收集废弃的医用塑料，在医院四楼电梯处设计了一只神奇的独角兽，默默地问候和安慰每一位患者和来访者。 1．What is special about the art piece displayed in KCH? A．It is small in size and easy to carry. B．It involves many variations in color. C．It is composed entirely of hospital plastic waste. D．It is a joint effort of the Child Life staff and patients. 解析：C　细节理解题。根据第二段中“This unicorn roughly five feet tall and six feet wide，is made up of nothing but thousands of vial (药水瓶) caps，oral injector caps，and tubes to create an image of a unicorn，silently greeting and comforting every patient and visitor.”可知，这只独角兽的独特之处是完全由医院的塑料垃圾组成，故选C项。 2．What does the underlined word “analogous” in Paragraph 3 most probably mean? A．Similar.　　　 B．Necessary. C．Meaningful. D．Challenging. 解析：A　词义猜测题。根据画线词上文“The idea for this unicorn was inspired by Tilda Shalof，a nurse in Canada who spent nearly 30 years collecting abandoned medical plastic to create a colorful creature.KCH nurses approached the Child Life staff about creating something”可知，加拿大护士Tilda Shalof之前创造过一个五颜六色的生物，可推理出现在肯塔基儿童医院的护士医院要创造一个差不多的东西，画线词的含义应为“类似的”含义，故选A。 3．Why did KCH staff decide to make a unicorn? A．It inspires children's innovation. B．It symbolizes hope，healing，and magic. C．It appears in many KCH members' dreams. D．It helps strike up friendships among patients. 解析：B　推理判断题。根据第四段中“After all，unicorns become the source where all dreamy thoughts can blossom.Meeting a unicorn and making friends with it could be so appealing to children.More than stories about the healing (治愈) power，for children，a unicorn might even have the magic power to change anything.”可推理出，独角兽象征着希望、治愈和神奇，故选B。 4．What do Joey Burke's words in Paragraph 5 imply? A．Some members opposed reusing medical waste. B．The design of the unicorn was a bit complicated. C．The staff were enthusiastic about the unicorn work. D．The collection of medical waste was time-consuming. 解析：C　推理判断题。根据第五段可知，各行各业的人都参与了制作过程，可推理出工作人员对制作独角兽的工作充满热情，故选C项。 B (2024·广东省高三联考)Brynn Schulte nearly died two times when she was a baby.At one point she needed emergency surgery for bleeding in her brain.No one knew what was wrong.Then，a test that looked at her full genetic details found a rare bleeding disorder.Catching the disorder early saved her life.“You have this hopeless feeling when you don't really know what's going on，” said her father，Mike Schulte.He noted that the test made a difference in finding the cause and “getting her the right care that she needed almost immediately”． Brynn，now 4，got the genetic testing as part of a clinical trial，the results of which were published recently in The Journal of the American Medical Association.Testing all of the details of a person's genes is called “whole genome” testing.Whole genome tests are much better than narrowly targeted tests when it comes to finding genetic differences，called abnormalities，which can cause disease.The study found 49 percent of these abnormalities，compared to 27 percent with more commonly used tests targeting only some genetic diseases. Whole genome tests could solve the problem of doing several narrowly targeted tests on babies，which still might not find the disorder.Experts warn there are some problems because labs vary in how they understand results.Also，whole genome tests are more expensive and less likely to be covered by insurance. But researchers hope that whole genome tests will at some point be used for millions of hospitalized babies with rare and difficult conditions.The US National Human Genome Research Institute has found that around 350 million people around the world live with rare disorders.And it found that about 80 percent of the more than 7，000 conditions are genetic. 【语篇解读】　本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了一个名为Brynn Schulte的孩子，在她出生不久的时候两次濒临死亡。通过对她的完整基因组进行测试，发现了一种罕见的出血性疾病。这次测试挽救了她的生命。研究人员希望将完整基因组测试用于患有罕见疾病的数百万住院婴儿。 5．How did Mike Schulte feel about the test? A．Proud. B．Grateful. C．Unclear. D．Hopeless. 解析：B　推理判断题。根据第一段中“ He noted that the test made a difference in finding the cause and ‘getting her the right care that she needed almost immediately’．”可推知，该研究为Brynn Schulte的疾病找出了病因，挽救了她的生命，因此父亲Mike对该试验充满了感激之情。 6．In finding genetic diseases， ． A．narrowly targeted tests are easier B．commonly used tests take longer C．whole genome tests focus on babies D．whole genome tests are more accurate 解析：D　细节理解题。根据第二段中“Whole genome tests are much better than narrowly targeted tests when it comes to finding genetic differences，called abnormalities，which can cause disease.”以及“The study found 49 percent of these abnormalities，compared to 27 percent with more commonly used tests targeting only some genetic diseases.”可知，相比于其他的遗传疾病基因检测，全基因组测试更加准确和有效。 7．What disadvantage do whole genome tests have? A．They cost a lot. B．The process is complex. C．The disorder might not be found. D．Their results are hard to understand. 解析：A　细节理解题。根据第三段中“Also，whole genome tests are more expensive and less likely to be covered by insurance.”可知，全基因组测试更昂贵，而且不太可能被保险覆盖。 8．Where is the text most likely found? A．In a blog. B．In a medical record. C．In a newspaper. D．In a letter. 解析：C　推理判断题。本文通过Brynn Schulte的案例引出全基因组检测临床试验的效果，介绍的是一个研究发现。由此可推知，本文最有可能在报纸上被找到。 Ⅱ.完形填空 (2024·河南省豫北名校高三联考)A curious and eager 6-year-old boy went on a journey that took him to a place filled with wonder and heroism: a fire station.But this young explorer was 1 ，so this wasn't just any adventure.His 2 was to “see” what a fireman looked like.
