W: It might not match an accountant’s pay, but the sense of achievement after a hard-working day is unmatched.
M: Accountants work hard too — and so do doctors, which is what I’ve always wanted to be. Why shouldn’t I train to become one?
W: You should... if treating patients is what you really want. But I just think fishing is a tradition in your family, and it’s such a beautiful village. You should at least do it as a summer job.
M: Fine! But only to earn some money before I go to the university.

When the fifth grade school year was almost over, all the girls made autograph (签名) books. As I signed my classmates’ books, I noticed their moms had written in them, too. “I couldn’t be prouder of you. Can’t wait to see how you like junior high!” “Congratulations! We love you and know you have a bright future!”
I asked my mother to sign mine, too. When she handed it back to me, I was anxious to see what she had written. This is what I found on the page:
When a thing is first begun,
Never leave it till it’s done.
Be the labor great or small.
Do it well or not at all.
That was it? I was frozen. It was an indication to me that, if I couldn’t be perfect, I wasn’t good enough. I held back my tears, left the page in but secretly hoped my classmates wouldn’t read it.
Do it well or not at all. For years, I battled perfectionism and never felt good enough for most of my life.
When my mother was in her eighties, I gave her a book to fill out so we could know more about her. It had questions at the top of each page and then blank space to respond. I secretly hoped she’d been working on it all along. Sadly, not long after, my mother passed away. When I sorted out her belongings, what I wanted more than anything was that book. What I found stopped me short. On page ten, the question was, “What’s the best advice you got from your parents?” Her response was what she had written in my autograph book. Even though I’d memorized it years ago, I read it at a slower pace now, seeing it in a new light.
It was written to her by her mother, and she was passing it down to her daughter in the same way. A gift from her to me. She was giving me treasured, valuable advice when all I was thinking about were words of praise. I understand it now.
24. In paragraph 1, the author found that words from other classmates’ moms ________.
A. contained reflection on life
B. expressed their thankfulness
C. showed pride in their children
D. featured a formal writing style
25. Seeing her mom’s words on the autograph book, how did the author feel?
A. Disappointed. B. Motivated. C. Hopeful. D. Anxious.
26. What does the underlined sentence in paragraph 5 imply?
A. The author memorized the words from her mom.
B. The author was surprised to see the same words again.
C. The author found it easy to see the words clearly under the light.
D. The author began to have a new understanding of her mom’s words.
27. What gift did the author’s mom give her?
A. A vision of a perfect world.
B. Encouragement to do things well.
C. Her mom’s wisdom of loving yourself.
D. Her mom’s advice on living at a slow pace.
【答案】24. C 25. A 26. D 27. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文,主要讲的是作者起初对妈妈在签名簿上的写的内容不理解,在母亲去世后作者才理解了那些话的意义。
【24题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“ I noticed their moms had written in them, too. “I couldn’t be prouder of you. Can’t wait to see how you like junior high!” “Congratulations! We love you and know you have a bright future!”(我注意到他们的妈妈也在上面写了字。“我为你感到无比骄傲。等不及想看看你的初中生活了!”“恭喜你!我们爱你,知道你有一个光明的未来!”)”可知,在第一段中,作者发现其他同学妈妈的话是以他们的孩子为傲。故选C。
【25题详解】
推理判断题。根据正文第三段“That was it? I was frozen. It was an indication to me that, if I couldn’t be perfect, I wasn’t good enough. I held back my tears, left the page in but secretly hoped my classmates wouldn’t read it.(就这样?我僵住了。这对我来说是一种暗示,如果我不能做到完美,我就不够好。我强忍着眼泪,留下了那一页,但心里暗暗希望同学们不要看。)”可知,看到妈妈在签名簿上写的字,作者是失望的,故选A。
【26题详解】
词句猜测题。根据倒数第二段“Even though I’d memorized it years ago, I read it at a slower pace now, seeing it in a new light.(尽管我多年前就已经记住了,但我现在读它的速度变慢了,以一种新的眼光看待它。)”和最后一段“I understand it now.(我现在明白了。)”可知,第5段划线的句子表示作者开始对她妈妈的话有了新的理解。故选D。
【27题详解】
推理判断题。根据作者妈妈写的话“When a thing is first begun, Never leave it till it’s done. Be the labor great or small. Do it well or not at all.(当一件事刚开始时,不做完就不要离开。无论劳动是大是小。要么做好,要么不做。)”以及最后一段的“It was written to her by her mother, and she was passing it down to her daughter in the same way. A gift from her to me.(这封信是她母亲写给她的,她正以同样的方式传给女儿。是她送给我的礼物。)”可知,作者的妈妈写的这些话就是给作者的礼物,从这些话可知,作者的妈妈鼓励作者把事情做好,故选B。
C
A plant-based diet seems to be the best option for human health. A team led by medical doctor Angelo Capodici of the University of Bologna in Italy has found that humans eating vegetarian (素食的) diets tend to have measurably better health outcomes in several areas.
This does not mean that you should immediately excise meat from your diet since the diet needs of individuals can vary significantly. What it does suggest is that making dietary changes might be a much more powerful tool for improving health outcomes, if it can be done safely.
Since diet is easy to change, Capodici and his colleagues (同事) wanted to take a closer look at the impact of plant-based eating on the risk of these diseases. They studied the data collected from 48 reviews between January 2000 and June 2023, and found that vegetarian diets were associated with better health status on a number of risk factors for both cardiovascular disease (CVD) and cancer. Overall, these plant-based diets were associated with better cholesterol (胆固醇) levels and blood sugar control, a lower risk of both cancer and heart disease compared to those of plant-and-meat eaters.
The team noted, though, that vegetarian pregnant (怀孕的) women did not show a significantly lower risk of high blood pressure. They were also careful not to draw conclusions about plant-based foods being the only cause of these health improvements.
It’s also worth noting that plant-based diets can result in vitamin and mineral shortage; and, of course, many different health conditions, such as allergies (过敏) require a careful, tailored approach to food. Because of these, the researchers caution against the large-scale adoption of plant-based diets. Rather, they say more targeted and more specific research should be conducted, in order to narrow down why these diets are positively correlated with better health.
28. What is the finding of the new research?
A. Vegetarians are likely to have a healthier body.
B. Individual dietary needs do not affect health outcomes.
C. Humans should eat more vegetables to enjoy a longer life.
D. Plant-based diets have become more popular in recent years.
29. What does the underlined word “excise” in paragraph 2 mean?
A. Remove. B. Obtain. C. Distinguish. D. Steal.
30. How did the team conduct the research?
A. By giving reasons. B. By analysing data.
C. By listing examples. D. By making comparisons.
31. What can we learn from the last paragraph?
A. Plant-based diets are an invitation to allergies among people.
B. Plant-based diets can make up for vitamin and mineral shortage.
C. Further researches should be focused on how to improve health.
D. Individual health needs should be considered before diet changes.
【答案】28. A 29. A 30. B 31. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍意大利博洛尼亚大学医生安吉洛·卡波迪奇领导的研究团队发现,素食主义者在一些健康指标上表现更好。但研究人员警告不要大规模采用素食,应开展更有针对性的研究,以确定素食与健康之间的具体关联。
【28题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“A team led by medical doctor Angelo Capodici of the University of Bologna in Italy has found that humans eating vegetarian (素食的) diets tend to have measurably better health outcomes in several areas.”(由意大利博洛尼亚大学的医学博士安吉洛·卡波迪奇领导的一个团队发现,吃素食的人在几个方面的健康状况往往会明显好转。)可知,新的研究发现素食者可能拥有更健康的身体。故选A。
【29题详解】
词句猜测题。根据指代关系可知,划线句“This does not mean that you should immediately excise meat from your diet”(这并不意味着你应该立即从饮食中excise肉类)中指示代词This指代的是第一段中的研究结论“素食者可能拥有更健康的身体”。鉴于此结论,人们可能会“immediately excise meat from your diet”,即“立即从饮食中去除肉类”,划线词excise与remove同义,意为“去除”。故选A。
【30题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中“They studied the data collected from 48 reviews between January 2000 and June 2023, and found that vegetarian diets were associated with better health status on a number of risk factors for both cardiovascular disease (CVD) and cancer.”(他们研究了2000年1月至2023年6月间收集的48篇评论的数据,发现素食与心血管疾病和癌症的多种危险因素的健康状况有关。)可知,团队是通过分析数据来进行研究的。故选B。
【31题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Because of these, the researchers caution against the large-scale adoption of plant-based diets. Rather, they say more targeted and more specific research should be conducted, in order to narrow down why these diets are positively correlated with better health.”(由于这些原因,研究人员警告不要大规模采用植物性饮食。相反,他们说应该进行更有针对性和更具体的研究,以确定为什么这些饮食与更好的健康状况呈正相关。)可以推知,在进行饮食改变之前应该进行更有针对性和更具体的个体研究,考虑个人的健康需求。故选D。
D
Some people prefer paperbacks because they’re easy to borrow and share. Others will go for e-readers. But which is the more environmentally sustainable option?
Whether it’s better to read books in print or on a device is complicated, because of the complex interaction of the resources involved across the entire lifecycle of a published work: how books and devices are shipped, what energy they use to run, if they can be recycled.
On the one side, traditional print publishing comes with a high carbon footprint. According to 2023 data, 32 million trees are cut down each year to make paper for books. Then there’s the energy-intensive processes of printing and shipping—to say nothing of the many books that are destroyed because they remain unsold. Although it’s standard practice in the industry, publishers don’t want to destroy books. So instead, many are donating unsold copies, switching to on-demand printing. Publishers are also rethinking book design, since certain fonts (字体) can be more climate-friendly by using less ink and less paper.
On the other hand, digital reading seems to have a considerable eco-advantage over print because it is paperless, so it saves trees and shipping. Moreover, tech companies that make e-readers such as Amazon offer recycling programs for old devices. But digital devices also come with a substantial carbon footprint, especially at the manufacturing stage. Their cases are made with plastics and the minerals in their batteries require resource-heavy mining.
Figuring out whether to take a digital device or a paperback to the beach ultimately depends on how much you read.“ If you buy an e-reader and you read loads and loads of books on it, then it’s the lowest carbon thing to do,” said Mike Berners-Lee, the author of The Carbon Footprint of Everything. “But if I buy it, read a couple of books, and decide that I prefer paperback books, then it’s the worst of all worlds.”
Yet Berners-Lee said that reading is still, relatively speaking, a pretty sustainable activity——regardless of whether you read using an e-reader, phone or old-fashioned paperback.
32. Why is it hard to tell if print or digital books are more eco-friendly?
A. The whole processes for both involve many resources.
B. The option depends on the reader’s personal preferences.
C. Recycling programs are not equally effective for both types.
D. The environmental impact of reading habits is often overlooked.
33. What are book publishers doing to reduce the environmental impact?
A. Cutting down fewer trees.
B. Destroying the unsold books.
C. Employing eco-friendly practices.
D. Focusing on the sales of digital books.
34. According to Berners-Lee, an e-reader is more sustainable than paperbacks when .
A. an e-reader is shared by many people
B. you charge it using renewable energy
C. an e-reader is recycled after being used
D. you read a high volume of books digitally
35. Which is the most suitable title for the text?
A. Print books vs. e-readers: which is your favorite?
B. Paper books vs. e-readers: which is better for the climate?
C. Choose digital reading, for it reduces more carbon footprint
D Keep the balance of convenience and sustainability in reading
【答案】32. A 33. C 34. D 35. B
【解析】
【导语】文章的体裁为说明文,通过对纸质书和电子书对环境影响的比较,介绍了它们各自的优缺点以及相关行业和个人在减少环境影响方面所采取的措施。
【32题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一第二段“Some people prefer paperbacks because they’re easy to borrow and share. Others will go for e-readers. But which is the more environmentally sustainable option? Whether it’s better to read books in print or on a device is complicated, because of the complex interaction of the resources involved across the entire lifecycle of a published work: how books and devices are shipped, what energy they use to run, if they can be recycled.(有些人喜欢平装书,因为它们容易借阅和分享。另一些人会选择电子阅读器。但哪种选项在环保方面更可持续? 究竟是在纸质书上阅读还是在设备上阅读更好,这是一个复杂的问题,因为涉及到整个出版作品生命周期中涉及的资源的复杂互动:书籍和设备是如何运输的,运行所需的能源是多少,它们是否可以回收利用)”可知,打印书籍和数字书籍都涉及许多资源,包括制作、印刷、运输等环节,因此确定哪种更环保较为困难。故选A项。
【33题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“Although it’s standard practice in the industry, publishers don’t want to destroy books. So instead, many are donating unsold copies, switching to on-demand printing. Publishers are also rethinking book design, since certain fonts (字体) can be more climate-friendly by using less ink and less paper.(尽管这在行业内是标准做法,但出版商并不希望销毁图书。因此,很多出版商选择将未售出的图书捐赠出去,并转向按需印刷。出版商也在重新考虑图书设计,因为某些字体可以更环保,使用更少的墨水和纸张) ”可知,出版商正在采取环保实践,包括捐出旧书、采用更环保的设计以及转向按需印刷等方法来降低环境影响。故选C项。
【34题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“Figuring out whether to take a digital device or a paperback to the beach ultimately depends on how much you read.“ If you buy an e-reader and you read loads and loads of books on it, then it’s the lowest carbon thing to do,” said Mike Berners-Lee, the author of The Carbon Footprint of Everything.(在决定是带数字设备还是纸质书去海滩时,最终取决于你的阅读量。“如果你购买了电子阅读器,并且在上面读了很多书,那么这是最低碳排放的选择,”《一切碳足迹》的作者迈克·伯纳斯-李说道) ”可知,Berners-Lee的观点是如果你在电子阅读器上阅读大量书籍,那么电子阅读器是更可持续的选择。故选D项。
【35题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段“Some people prefer paperbacks because they’re easy to borrow and share. Others will go for e-readers. But which is the more environmentally sustainable option?( 有些人喜欢平装书,因为它们方便借阅和共享。其他人会选择电子阅读器。但哪种选项更环保可持续呢) ”可知,文本主要论述纸质书与电子阅读器对气候影响的比较,“纸质书与电子阅读器:哪个对气候更好?”这个标题最合适。故选B项。

Use a travel agent. Consider turning your travel plan over to a travel agent and letting him double-check all the details, make suggestions, and then handle the actual reservations. A good one can sometimes find you discounted tickets. ____37____ Then you won’t have to walk through several cars on a moving train three times a day for your meals.
Bring a blanket. When you’re riding on trains, you won’t be provided with a blanket for free, even if your trip is an overnight one. ____38____ In the summer in particular, the air conditioning can make them quite cold.
Arrive early. Most trains operate just once a day and some run only three times a week, so missing yours can be a disaster. ____39____ Note: The times listed on the schedules are departure times, not arrival times.
Have fun. ____40____ Read a book, knit, do a crossword puzzle, or simply watch the world unfold outside the window. To calculate your speed as you do, divide 3,600(the number of seconds in an hour)by the number of seconds it takes you to travel one mile(the distance between two mileposts). If it takes the train 53 seconds to travel one mile, you’re going 67.92 mph.
A. Train trips aren’t for impatient types.
B You’ll have views from both sides of the train.
C. The temperature on rail cars is often hard to control.
D. That’s particularly true during busy summer months.
E. You might have to wait longer than 24 hours to catch the next one.
F. Chances are that the cost will be a lot less than the cost of one bedroom.
G. He may also book you in a sleeping car that’s right next to the diner.
【答案】36. D 37. G 38. C 39. E 40. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是说明文。文章讲述一些关于如何使坐火车旅行尽可能愉快的建议。
【36题详解】
根据上文“Plan ahead. Most long-distance trains, especially the sleeping car accommodations, sell out very quickly.(提前计划。大多数长途火车,尤其是卧铺,很快就卖光了。)”以及下文“But no matter when you travel, it’s a good idea to make your reservations at least 90 days in advance. (但无论你什么时候去旅行,最好至少提前90天预订。)”可知,大多数长途火车的卧铺很容易被定完,所以要提前安排预定,D项“在繁忙的夏季尤其如此。”符合语境,D项中“busy summer months”与前后文呼应,说明忙碌的夏季尤其需要提前计划。故选D项。
【37题详解】
根据上文“A good one can sometimes find you discounted tickets. (一个好的旅行社有时可以帮你找到打折的票。)”以及下文“Then you won’t have to walk through several cars on a moving train three times a day for your meals. (这样你就不必为了吃饭而每天三次在行驶的火车上穿过几节车厢了。)”可知,好的旅行社帮你预定,不仅可以找到打折的票,还可以节省从卧铺到餐车的距离,G项中“book you in a sleeping car that’s right next to the diner”与前后文对应,因此推断G项“他可能还会给你预订餐厅旁边的卧铺车厢。”符合语境。故选G项。
【38题详解】
根据上文“When you’re riding on trains, you won’t be provided with a blanket for free, even if your trip is an overnight one.(当你乘坐火车时,你不会免费获得一条毯子,即使你的旅行是过夜的。)”以及下文“In the summer in particular, the air conditioning can make them quite cold. (特别是在夏天,空调会让他们很冷。)”可知,这里提到了车厢内温度的问题,提醒乘客最好自备毛毯,C项中“The temperature on rail cars”与前后文对应,因此推断C项“列车上的温度通常很难控制。”符合语境。故选C项。
【39题详解】
根据上文“Most trains operate just once a day and some run only three times a week, so missing yours can be a disaster.(大多数火车每天只开一趟,有些火车一周只开三趟,所以错过你的火车可能是一场灾难。)”以及下文“Note: The times listed on the schedules are departure times, not arrival times. (注意:时刻表上列出的时间是出发时间,不是到达时间。)”可知,本段提醒要提前安排时间,错过时间是很麻烦的事情,E项中“You might have to wait longer”与前后文对应,说明错过火车导致的结果,因此推断E项“你可能要等上超过24小时才能赶上下一班。”符合语境。故选E项。
【40题详解】
根据上文“Have fun.(玩得开心)”以及下文“To calculate your speed as you do, divide 3,600(the number of seconds in an hour)by the number of seconds it takes you to travel one mile(the distance between two mileposts).”(要计算你的速度,用3600(一小时的秒数)除以你走一英里(两个里程碑之间的距离)所花费的秒数。)”可知,本段讲述如何度过乘车时间,A项中讲到火车旅行不适合没有耐心的人与后文要计算时间,用不同的方式打发时间对应,符合语境。故选A项。

第二节(满分25分)
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。
In the first and second grades, I was extremely shy. I had friends, but it just wasn’t in my personality to be very outgoing, even if I knew someone well. I was even quieter with strangers, and so I wasn’t very good at meeting new people. I was afraid that I would do or say something wrong.
So in our school’s annual grand play, I usually sat in a secluded (僻静的) corner to watch the performance alone. I hoped to sit in the background and watch the actors sweat in front of all those pairs of eyes.
One day in the third grade, my teacher Mrs. Sally called me into her office and said, “Oh, Mary, you re great at memorizing things, and you have such a sweet personality. Perfect for Jenny! ‘ But I bowed my head and dared not speak. The teacher saw this and then said, “Of course, plenty of girls would love the role, and I could find somebody else. But I hope you could try it for me. I had you in mind for Jenny while writing the play! If you really don’t want to, I won’t force you. It’s your choice.”
My mind was spinning (快速旋转) faster than the windmill (风车) on the school playground. Mrs. Sally, whom I loved and admired, wanted me to play this role. She believed in me. My eyes moved across the room to a poster I had never noticed before. It showed a shooting star and read, “If you reach for the stars, you might at least grab a piece of the moon.” I looked into Mrs. Sally’s shining blue eyes and said, “Okay, I’ll try.” I realized it was time to throw off my shy mask and show the world who I really was.
In the following five months, the teacher taught me how to set, put on makeup, memorize lines, create costumes and so on. Gradually, I mastered (掌握) my lines and songs.
注意:1、续写词数应为150左右;
2、请按如下格式作答。
The big day came at last.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
At that time, Mrs. Sally came backstage for her final check-up and noticed my nervousness.
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】 The big day came at last. I jogged all the way to the backstage of the school hall. Cameras were lighting up in all directions. Looking back on five months practise, I seemed to have confidence in myself. I found a new person inside me, a much more daring and outgoing person who had been hidden all along. However, when I was about to go on stage, my heart was pounding so hard that my throat tightened and my knees felt weak.
At that time, Mrs. Sally came backstage for her final check-up and noticed that my nervousness. “It doesn’t matter how you do tonight,” she said. “You’ve already shown how wonderful you are.” Looking into Mrs Sally’s shining blue eyes, I calmed down and then walked onto the stage with his warm words like a ray of sunshine. When I finished my performance, the audience burst into applause. The scene made me feel myself floating in an ocean of happiness. I knew that all this was due to the encouragement from my teacher, who helped me find the confidence to succeed.
【解析】
【导语】本文以人物为线索展开,在一年级和二年级的时候,作者非常害羞,所以在学校一年一度的盛大演出时,作者总是坐在一个僻静的角落独自观看。上三年级的时候,Sally老师认为作者很适合演一部剧中的Jenny,便鼓励作者演这一角色。经过五个月的练习,作者登台演出前感觉非常紧张,但在Sally老师的鼓励下作者成功完成了演出。

②由第二段首句内容“这时,Sally老师来到后台做最后的检查,注意到我的紧张。”可知,第二段可描写Sally老师对作者的鼓励以及作者在Sally老师的鼓励下成功完成演出。
2.续写线索:演出来临——感到紧张——老师鼓励——演出成功

When the fifth grade school year was almost over, all the girls made autograph (签名) books. As I signed my classmates’ books, I noticed their moms had written in them, too. “I couldn’t be prouder of you. Can’t wait to see how you like junior high!” “Congratulations! We love you and know you have a bright future!”
I asked my mother to sign mine, too. When she handed it back to me, I was anxious to see what she had written. This is what I found on the page:
When a thing is first begun,
Never leave it till it’s done.
Be the labor great or small.
Do it well or not at all.
That was it? I was frozen. It was an indication to me that, if I couldn’t be perfect, I wasn’t good enough. I held back my tears, left the page in but secretly hoped my classmates wouldn’t read it.
Do it well or not at all. For years, I battled perfectionism and never felt good enough for most of my life.
When my mother was in her eighties, I gave her a book to fill out so we could know more about her. It had questions at the top of each page and then blank space to respond. I secretly hoped she’d been working on it all along. Sadly, not long after, my mother passed away. When I sorted out her belongings, what I wanted more than anything was that book. What I found stopped me short. On page ten, the question was, “What’s the best advice you got from your parents?” Her response was what she had written in my autograph book. Even though I’d memorized it years ago, I read it at a slower pace now, seeing it in a new light.
It was written to her by her mother and she was passing it down to her daughter in the same way. A gift from her to me. She was giving me treasured, valuable advice when all I was thinking about were words of praise. I understand it now.
24. In paragraph 1, the author found that words from other classmates’ moms ________.
A. contained reflection on life
B. expressed their thankfulness
C. showed pride in their children
D featured a formal writing style
25. Seeing her mom’s words on the autograph book, how did the author feel?
A. Disappointed. B. Motivated. C. Hopeful. D. Anxious.
26. What does the underlined sentence in paragraph 5 imply?
A. The author memorized the words from her mom.
B. The author was surprised to see the same words again.
C. The author found it easy to see the words clearly under the light.
D. The author began to have a new understanding of her mom’s words.
27. What gift did the author’s mom give her?
A. A vision of a perfect world.
B. Encouragement to do things well.
C. Her mom’s wisdom of loving yourself.
D Her mom’s advice on living at a slow pace.
C
A plant-based diet seems to be the best option for human health. A team led by medical doctor Angelo Capodici of the University of Bologna in Italy has found that humans eating vegetarian (素食的) diets tend to have measurably better health outcomes in several areas.
This does not mean that you should immediately excise meat from your diet, since the diet needs of individuals can vary significantly. What it does suggest is that making dietary changes might be a much more powerful tool for improving health outcomes, if it can be done safely.
Since diet is easy to change, Capodici and his colleagues (同事) wanted to take a closer look at the impact of plant-based eating on the risk of these diseases. They studied the data collected from 48 reviews between January 2000 and June 2023, and found that vegetarian diets were associated with better health status on a number of risk factors for both cardiovascular disease (CVD) and cancer. Overall, these plant-based diets were associated with better cholesterol (胆固醇) levels and blood sugar control, a lower risk of both cancer and heart disease compared to those of plant-and-meat eaters.
The team noted, though, that vegetarian pregnant (怀孕的) women did not show a significantly lower risk of high blood pressure. They were also careful not to draw conclusions about plant-based foods being the only cause of these health improvements.
It’s also worth noting that plant-based diets can result in vitamin and mineral shortage; and, of course, many different health conditions, such as allergies (过敏) require a careful, tailored approach to food. Because of these, the researchers caution against the large-scale adoption of plant-based diets. Rather, they say more targeted and more specific research should be conducted, in order to narrow down why these diets are positively correlated with better health.
28. What is the finding of the new research?
A. Vegetarians are likely to have a healthier body.
B. Individual dietary needs do not affect health outcomes.
C. Humans should eat more vegetables to enjoy a longer life.
D. Plant-based diets have become more popular in recent years.
29. What does the underlined word “excise” in paragraph 2 mean?
A. Remove. B. Obtain. C. Distinguish. D. Steal.
30. How did the team conduct the research?
A. By giving reasons. B. By analysing data.
C. By listing examples. D. By making comparisons.
31. What can we learn from the last paragraph?
A. Plant-based diets are an invitation to allergies among people.
B Plant-based diets can make up for vitamin and mineral shortage.
C. Further researches should be focused on how to improve health.
D. Individual health needs should be considered before diet changes.
D
Some people prefer paperbacks because they’re easy to borrow and share. Others will go for e-readers. But which is the more environmentally sustainable option?
Whether it’s better to read books in print or on a device is complicated, because of the complex interaction of the resources involved across the entire lifecycle of a published work: how books and devices are shipped, what energy they use to run, if they can be recycled.
On the one side, traditional print publishing comes with a high carbon footprint. According to 2023 data, 32 million trees are cut down each year to make paper for books. Then there’s the energy-intensive processes of printing and shipping—to say nothing of the many books that are destroyed because they remain unsold. Although it’s standard practice in the industry, publishers don’t want to destroy books. So instead, many are donating unsold copies, switching to on-demand printing. Publishers are also rethinking book design, since certain fonts (字体) can be more climate-friendly by using less ink and less paper.
On the other hand, digital reading seems to have a considerable eco-advantage over print because it is paperless, so it saves trees and shipping. Moreover, tech companies that make e-readers such as Amazon offer recycling programs for old devices. But digital devices also come with a substantial carbon footprint, especially at the manufacturing stage. Their cases are made with plastics and the minerals in their batteries require resource-heavy mining.
Figuring out whether to take a digital device or a paperback to the beach ultimately depends on how much you read.“ If you buy an e-reader and you read loads and loads of books on it, then it’s the lowest carbon thing to do,” said Mike Berners-Lee, the author of The Carbon Footprint of Everything. “But if I buy it, read a couple of books, and decide that I prefer paperback books, then it’s the worst of all worlds.”
Yet Berners-Lee said that reading is still, relatively speaking, a pretty sustainable activity——regardless of whether you read using an e-reader, phone or old-fashioned paperback.
32. Why is it hard to tell if print or digital books are more eco-friendly?
A. The whole processes for both involve many resources.
B. The option depends on the reader’s personal preferences.
C. Recycling programs are not equally effective for both types.
D. The environmental impact of reading habits is often overlooked.
33. What are book publishers doing to reduce the environmental impact?
A. Cutting down fewer trees.
B. Destroying the unsold books.
C. Employing eco-friendly practices.
D. Focusing on the sales of digital books.
34. According to Berners-Lee, an e-reader is more sustainable than paperbacks when .
A. an e-reader is shared by many people
B. you charge it using renewable energy
C. an e-reader is recycled after being used
D. you read a high volume of books digitally
35. Which is the most suitable title for the text?
A. Print books vs. e-readers: which is your favorite?
B. Paper books vs. e-readers: which is better for the climate?
C. Choose digital reading, for it reduces more carbon footprint
D. Keep the balance of convenience and sustainability in reading

With gas prices rising and airport security lines snaking longer than ever, why not book your next domestic vacation on a train? Compared to other alternatives, it’s comfortable and relaxing. Here is some advice on how to make a trip by rail as pleasant as possible.
Plan ahead. Most long-distance trains, especially the sleeping car accommodations, sell out very quickly. ____36____ But no matter when you travel, it’s a good idea to make your reservations at least 90 days in advance.
Use a travel agent. Consider turning your travel plan over to a travel agent and letting him double-check all the details, make suggestions, and then handle the actual reservations. A good one can sometimes find you discounted tickets. ____37____ Then you won’t have to walk through several cars on a moving train three times a day for your meals.
Bring a blanket. When you’re riding on trains, you won’t be provided with a blanket for free, even if your trip is an overnight one. ____38____ In the summer in particular, the air conditioning can make them quite cold.
Arrive early. Most trains operate just once a day and some run only three times a week, so missing yours can be a disaster. ____39____ Note: The times listed on the schedules are departure times, not arrival times.
Have fun. ____40____ Read a book, knit, do a crossword puzzle, or simply watch the world unfold outside the window. To calculate your speed as you do, divide 3,600(the number of seconds in an hour)by the number of seconds it takes you to travel one mile(the distance between two mileposts). If it takes the train 53 seconds to travel one mile, you’re going 67.92 mph.
A. Train trips aren’t for impatient types.
B. You’ll have views from both sides of the train.

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。
In the first and second grades, I was extremely shy. I had friends, but it just wasn’t in my personality to be very outgoing, even if I knew someone well. I was even quieter with strangers, and so I wasn’t very good at meeting new people. I was afraid that I would do or say something wrong.
So in our school’s annual grand play, I usually sat in a secluded (僻静的) corner to watch the performance alone. I hoped to sit in the background and watch the actors sweat in front of all those pairs of eyes.
One day in the third grade, my teacher Mrs. Sally called me into her office and said, “Oh, Mary, you re great at memorizing things, and you have such a sweet personality. Perfect for Jenny! ‘ But I bowed my head and dared not speak. The teacher saw this and then said, “Of course, plenty of girls would love the role, and I could find somebody else. But I hope you could try it for me. I had you in mind for Jenny while writing the play! If you really don’t want to, I won’t force you. It’s your choice.”
My mind was spinning (快速旋转) faster than the windmill (风车) on the school playground. Mrs. Sally, whom I loved and admired, wanted me to play this role. She believed in me. My eyes moved across the room to a poster I had never noticed before. It showed a shooting star and read, “If you reach for the stars, you might at least grab a piece of the moon.” I looked into Mrs. Sally’s shining blue eyes and said, “Okay, I’ll try.” I realized it was time to throw off my shy mask and show the world who I really was.
In the following five months, the teacher taught me how to set, put on makeup, memorize lines, create costumes and so on. Gradually, I mastered (掌握) my lines and songs.
注意:1、续写词数应为150左右;
2、请按如下格式作答。
The big day came at last.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
At that time, Mrs. Sally came backstage for her final check-up and noticed my nervousness.
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
