阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
A
New Space Missions in 2024
ESA’s Hera mission
The European Space Agency (ESA) plans to launch its Hera spacecraft in October on a mission to return to an asteroid (小行星) system visited by NASA’s DART spacecraft in 2022. Hera is designed to collect data on the targeted system, called Didymos. The spacecraft is expected to closely examine the physical properties of Didymos and measure detailed effects of DART’s crash.
Europa Clipper
NASA hopes to launch its Europa Clipper mission in October. This orbiter is designed to carry out close examinations of Jupiter’s moon Europa. Specifically, the mission will look for signs that the icy moon might hold the right conditions to support life. NASA says the orbiter will fly in orbit around Jupiter and perform repeated close flybys of the icy moon.
Boeing’s Starliner test flight
NASA and Boeing have said they plan to launch the first crewed test flight of the company’s Starliner spacecraft. NASA says it is targeting May 2024 to have Starliner ready for flight. The launch date is to be set later.
The spacecraft completed its first unscrewed flight test to the International Space Station (ISS) last May. But Boeing has experienced several technical difficulties with Starliner during the mission and has worked with NASA to fix the problems as it prepares for the planned crewed flight.
SpaceX Starship test
SpaceX, another NASA’s partner, has been successfully using its rockets and spacecraft to transport astronauts and materials to the ISS since 2020. But the company will be seeking a successful test flight in 2024 for its super-heavy Starship spacecraft.
SpaceX experienced two failed Starship tests in 2023 — one in April and the other in November — which resulted in explosions. The April explosion caused major damage to the launch structure in the state of Texas. SpaceX has said it has been examining the issues related to the explosions and plans to carry out another test of Starship as soon as possible. But it will have to wait until the US Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) completes its investigation of the launch site damage and approves a new test.
21.Which of the following plans to collect data about Didymos?
A.NASA. B.FAA. C.SpaceX. D.ESA.
22.When is Europa Clipper scheduled to launch?
A.In April. B.In May. C.In October. D.In November.
23.What do we know about SpaceX Starship?
A.The date for its third test flight is unclear.
B.It has succeeded in sending astronauts to the ISS.
C.The reason for its first failure has been identified.
D.Its second test flight damaged the launch structure.

The National Heritage Responders is a volunteer network of around 100 experts in cultural heritage conservation from around Puerto Rico. They assist individuals and institutions in figuring out how to save important objects and buildings after disasters. Their crisis hotline has been busier than ever in recent years because of more frequent and severe weather brought on by climate change. In 2023, there have been around 70 calls so far, up from fewer than 10 in 2008, when the hotline first appeared.
Ann Frellsen, the Atlanta-based book and paper conservator, is a longtime heritage responder volunteer with more than three decades of experience in helping out cultural institutions after disasters. She was among those sent to Puerto Rico over several visits starting a couple of months after two hurricanes hit it in 2017.
After providing initial support via the phone, Frellsen and her team came in to help La Casa del Libro and other local institutions in crisis with equipment, supplies and advice. In fact, much of the advice the hotline provides is via phone or video-chat; volunteers are sent out into the field in certain cases, on an as-needed basis.
“There were no stoplights and signs on the highways because they’d all been blown away,” Frellsen said. She added that figuring out how to reach the more than 20 institutions that needed assistance in Puerto Rico was challenging—not to mention the on-the-job hazards.
When Frellsen isn’t heading into disaster zones to help save artifacts (文物) from fires, hurricanes and floods, she trains others in the heritage conservation field to do the same. Some of the participants may eventually take the test to become National Heritage Responders. But at this moment, they are deep in a hands-on training exercise, based on an imaginary situation cooked up by Frellsen and her co-trainers.
24.What can we say about Puerto Rico?
A.It calls on people to keep in contact. B.Natural disasters are increasing there.
C.It works hard to build highways. D.The weather is really nice there.
25.What can be learned about the National Heritage Responders?
A.It teaches individuals how to protect themselves.
B.New volunteers can join it with no tests required.
C.Victims all over the world can contact it by hotline.
D.It sends experts to the disaster areas when necessary.
26.What does the underlined word “hazards” in paragraph 4 mean?
A.Dangers. B.Skills. C.Trainings. D.Rights.
27.What are Frellsen and her team busy doing at present?
A.Taking various tests. B.Entering a new disaster area.
C.Conducting a practical exercise. D.Restoring priceless artifacts.

In a neighborhood in the east of Paris, if you walk out of your front door, you can arrive at a kindergarten in one minute and a bookstore in three minutes. A bakery? It’s across the street. Actually, all key things in daily life — work, food, schools and entertainment — are within a 15-minute walk.
This neighborhood was built in this way more than 150 years ago and this old idea of having all important things close by has now evolved into an urban planning model that is gaining popularity around the world.
“A 15-minute city not only improves quality of life, but can also reduce greenhouse gases. Transportation accounts for about 20% of global energy-related CO₂ pollution, with cars making up almost 10%,”says Carlos Moreno, a professor at University of Paris, who has been helping the city put this idea to use. “Paris should integrate the 15-minute city as part of a broader strategy to get closer to net zero goals.”
Besides reducing greenhouse gases, there are lots of “co-benefits” for people who live in 15-minute cities. Facilities that prioritize walking and biking mean less noise from cars and more safety for the people, Less air pollution from cars and daily routines with more walking and biking promote health. Redesigning cities where homes are mixed in with businesses can drive more. foot traffic to those businesses.
But one challenge to building 15-minute cities across France is financial. Many banks are still unwilling to provide loans for mixed-use developments, because they are still a relatively uncommon way to build communities. Other barriers have to do with parking in a more heavily populated area. The biggest obstacle involves public schools. When couples have kids, they often leave cities for suburbs, which they think have better schools.
“If we want regional sustainability, we have to look to these urban places,”Makarewicz says. “But if we want to successfully introduce a 15-minute city approach to an area, we should focus on the way people want to live.”
28.What is a feature of the so-called 15-minute city?
A.Better schools are built in the suburbs. B.People are required to walk or ride bikes.
C.All important daily things are close by. D.Greenhouse gases are reduced to net zero.
29.What is paragraph 4 mainly about?
A.The difficulties of redesigning. B.The benefits of a 15-minute city.
C.The harms of living in big cities. D.The costs to build 15-minute cities.
30.Which of the following best explains “obstacle” underlined in paragraph 5?
A.Failure. B.Plan. C.Change. D.Problem.
31.What is the key to putting Carlos Moreno’ idea into use successfully?
A.Urban residents’ acceptance. B.The available urban space.
C.People's willingness to lend money. D.The governmental support.
D
In Nathaniel Hawthorne’s short story The Birth-Mark, a chemist called Aylmer marries a young woman, Georgiana, whose only imperfection is a red spot on her left cheek. He considers it a “terrible flaw”. So she asks him to use his skills to remove it. At length Aylmer creates a medicine that has the desired effect: to kill her without pain.
Hawthorne’s story illustrates the harm of perfectionism. It is Thomas Curran’s starting-point for a study of what he calls a “hidden epidemic(流行病)”. He thinks the endless efforts for higher standards is mainly a disaster. As a social psychologist at the London School of Economics, Mr. Curran describes himself as “a recovering perfectionist”. Drawing on both academic research and his own experiences, he makes a convincing case.
Mr. Curran distinguishes between two sorts of perfectionism. The first, which looks inward, is the unforgiving self-criticizing of the hardworking employees. A second version, directed towards others, is commonly found in bosses who have unrealistic expectations of their staff and sharply criticize their supposed failings. Its victims tend to feel lonely. Often they think about harming themselves.
Having noted the potential negative effects, Mr. Curran suggests some causes. These include a lack of job security, unreasonable requirements by helicopter parents and the unhealthy advertising, which fuel consumption and anxiety.
“The economy”, he claims, “is based on our discontent. Social media flood users with images of finely sculpted bodies, seemingly perfect dresses and unbelievably romantic weddings.”
His greatest attack, though, is directed at society. In this he draws on the thinking of Michael Sandel, a philosopher at Harvard. Especially in the book, The Tyranny of Merit, Professor Sandel has argued that using achievements as a sorting machine leads to a society that is divided into just winners and losers, while ignoring the common good. Like Mr. Curran, Professor Sandel has a good point.
32.Who can be considered as the second type of perfectionist by Thomas Curran?
A.Aylmer. B.Georgiana. C.Michael Sandel. D.Nathaniel Hawthorne.
33.According to Thomas Curran, a healthy economy should .
A.not have winners or losers B.provide job security for everyone
C.be free from advertisements D.not be driven just by anxiety
34.What does the author think of Michael Sandel’s criticism of the society?
A.Unfair. B.Convincing. C.Misleading. D.Gentle.
35.Which of the following can be the best title for the text?
A.The Imperfection of Our Society B.A Review of The Tyranny of Merit
C.Comments on Thomas Curran’s Study D.Effective Ways to Deal With Perfectionism

ALL DRESSED UP...with nowhere to go? It can hurt when your friend cancels plans at the last minute with a message: “Sorry, can’t make it after all.” But there are plenty of ways to get over the disappointment and make the most of your day.
How to be honest. 36 . You don’t want to make a friend feel bad. But brushing it off with a simple “No worries” might imply that you don’t mind and it’s OK to cancel without thinking. 37 . Let your friend know that you care about what’s happened, especially if you suspect there’s a deeper reason behind their no-show. And it’s good to suggest rearranging plans, so you have something you can look forward to together.
38 . If the same person keeps cancelling plans with you, it might be time to reconsider the friendship. Have they let you down a lot? Is it often hard to get them to commit to things? 39 . If this is what you suspect, perhaps step back for a while and instead focus on other friendships. If you can, arrange to meet friends who make the effort to spend time with you and whose company you enjoy.
Have a back-up plan. Your original plans may not be possible, but that doesn’t mean you can’t have a good time. Despite the upset feeling, you can still make the most of the time you’ve been given back to focus on yourself. 40 .
A.How to draw the line
B.When to draw the line
C.It’s important to acknowledge your emotions
D.It’s common to reply to the last-minute “can’t make-it” text
E.It’s often hard to reply to the last-minute “can’t make-it” text
F.For example, watch a film, or go for a relaxing walk into nature
G.These can be signs that they aren’t the most reliable person to be friends with

The need for speed is so deeply rooted in modern society that we often forget to press pause and think about the things that get 56 (good) with time: antiques, aged wine, long-term relationships and expertise over the years.
Peking Opera is a slow process too. 57 an often-repeated saying goes, one minute on stage takes ten years of practice. It’s a reminder of its high standards, which ensure that any performance 58 (do) the way the forefathers wanted it.
Peking Opera is 59 (demand) because of the extensive list of skills it requires. A performer is an actor, singer, dancer, acrobat, mime and martial artist all rolled into one. They’re also expected 60 (apply) delicate make-up, put on heavy costumes and, depending on their character, perform on stage 61 15cm platform shoes.
There is so much to take in that disciples (学徒) usually start their career as young children, spending years 62 (train) their bodies and minds for the stage.
So what chance does 63 theatre beginner with little patience and zero flexibility like me stand against Peking Opera? Do I have 64 it takes to put on a successful show? There’s only one way to find out: I’m rolling up my sleeves and training under the 65 (guide) of senior stage masters in the field.

67.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。
There was a small village in the heart of a big jungle. Surrounded by the magnificent mountains and in the shade of green trees, the villagers were used to their robotic daily tasks. None of them had the imagination or the will to try something new, except for one girl named Hannah.
Hannah was one of the few people in the village who could read and write. She was an adventurous spirit with an imagination far beyond her time. She loved to explore and would spend hours in the woods looking for new things.
One afternoon, while exploring, she came upon an abandoned cottage. Even though Hannah’s mother had strictly warned her not to go wandering in abandoned places, her curiosity got the best of her. She tip-toed slowly to the door and slowly opened it and she was left astonished. In front of Hannah was a room full of books! The books were covered in dust, but they sparkled in the sunlight, just waiting to be explored. Hannah’s excitement was visible on her face as she jumped up and down with joy!
It was breathtaking for Hannah as she realized that she had found a hidden treasure. She knew in her heart that she desired to read all of them so she quickly got to work. She dusted the books, the shelves, and what was left of the furniture. Hannah broomed, swept, and dusted all day long until she realized that it was dark and she had to go back to her home. But she couldn’t leave without reading at least one book, so Hannah picked two books and decided to read them at her home.
She met her friends on the way home who were fascinated by what Hannah was carrying.
In her excitement, Hannah shared everything with her friends. She was thinking that her friends will share her excitement but instead, she just heard a roar of laughters! Hannah was confused by this reaction first, but then she realized that they really need the help from books for change.
注意:1. 续写词数应为150左右;
2. 请按如下格式作答。
So she did not give up on the books in the cottage.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
She knew it would be a difficult journey, but she wanted to share the “gold” with everyone.

18.A 19.B 20.C
【原文】W: Penguins are birds that cannot fly but use their wings for swimming. They live in or near the Antarctic. Researchers recently found that Chinstrap penguins only sleep for about four seconds at a time in order to protect their eggs and newborn chicks. They do this thousands of times throughout the day. The short micro-sleeps total around 11 hours each day. The micro-sleeps appear to be enough to keep the parents going for many weeks. Niels Rattenborg, a sleep researcher, said “Their eyes open and shut, and they do it 24/7 for several weeks at a time. What’s surprising is that they’re able to function okay and successfully raise their young,” Chinstrap penguins usually lay their eggs in November in nests made up of small rocks. Mated pairs share parenting responsibilities. One parent usually watches the eggs and chicks alone while the other goes off fishing for family meals. Adult penguins do not face many natural enemies in the mating season. But large birds called brown skuas eat the penguin eggs and small chicks. Other adult penguins may also try to steal the small rocks from nests. So, penguin parents must always be on guard.

30.词句猜测题。根据划线词前“But one challenge to building 15-minute cities across France is financial.

67.范文
So she did not give up on the books in the cottage. She went home and all night long, she read the adventurous tales hidden in the book cover. The next day, she rushed to the cottage again, where she read more books. While immersed in the charm of reading, it seemed as if Hannah opened the doors to a much bigger outside world-literature, art, science, history. . . Books offered her endless inspiration and Hannah determined to share the power of reading with the people of her village.
She knew it would be a difficult journey, but she wanted to share the “gold” with everyone. Making this her task, Hannah started telling tales every day at her cottage, but only her best friends and family came to the readings. So, Hannah invited the few people who could read and write to join them together. Before long, the word of their famous tales spread through the village, appealing to more and more people to attend the readings. Gradually, Hannah successfully aroused people’s interest in reading and the old cottage became a paradise for reading.
