[本卷满分120分，考试用时100分钟] 第一部分　阅读(共两节，满分50分) 第一节(共15小题；每小题2.5分，满分37.5分) 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 Since it first opened after four years of construction in 1937 at a cost of $27 million，the Golden Gate Bridge has made its appearance in films and poetry. CNN Travel spent a day climbing into and around the bridge，learning these secrets from the people who know and love it best. Why is it called the Golden Gate Bridge？It's not golden. “The Golden Gate Bridge gets its name because it spans what is called the Golden Gate Strait，”said Paolo Cosulich­Schwartz，spokesman for the Golden Gate Bridge，Highway and Transportation District，which operates the bridge.It's a three­mile­long and one­mile­wide body of water that connects the Pacific Ocean to the San Francisco Bay. What color is the bridge？It looks red. “It's not red，although you're not crazy to think so.Visitors all call it red，”said Russell.“Back in the day，the US Navy，then part of the War Department，oversaw the waterways and wanted to paint this bridge black and yellow for high visibility，”said fellow painter Jarrod Bauer.“They ended up mixing paint to create the color International Orange，which is similar to the color of red lead，”he said. Does the bridge get entirely painted every year? No，and it doesn't need to be.It's true that the top coat has been fully repainted over time with new and environmentally­improved International Orange top coats. Who performs bridge rescues? McVeigh and his fellow ironworkers，the so­called“Cowboys of the Sky”，have that responsibility.McVeigh has lost count of how many troubled souls he's been called to rescue over the past 17 years. In September in 2018，the bridge started constructing a suicide prevention system，also known as the safety net，to keep people from jumping off the Golden Gate Bridge. [语篇解读]　这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了美国金门大桥的情况，并通过美国有线电视新闻网旅游节目组的实地调查和采访相关人员，和读者分享了一些关于金门大桥的秘密。 1．What's the true color of the Golden Gate Bridge? A．Red.　　　　　 B．Red lead. C．Black and yellow. D．International Orange. 解析：D　细节理解题。根据第四段中的“They ended up mixing paint to create the color International Orange，which is similar to the color of red lead”可知，金门大桥最后被漆成国际橙色，类似于red lead(铅丹)。故选D。 2．Who can probably be called a hero on the Golden Gate Bridge? A．McVeigh. B．Jarrod Bauer. C．Russell. D．Paolo. 解析：A　推理判断题。根据倒数第二段内容可知，McVeigh和他的搭档们一直为大桥上的安全负责，在过去的17年里McVeigh也记不清挽救了多少失意想跳桥的人。因此他最有可能被称为英雄人物。故选A。 3．What can we know about the Golden Gate Bridge? A．It is safer now because of the safety net. B．It got its name because of its color. C．It took much time and money to be built. D．It needs to be repainted once a year. 解析：C　推理判断题。根据第一段中的“Since it first opened after four years of constrction in 1937 at a cost of $27 million”可知，金门大桥历时四年建成，耗资2700万美元。由此可推知，金门大桥花费了很多时间和金钱才建成。故选C。 B After years of observing human nature, I have decided that two qualities make a difference between men of great achievement and men of average performance — curiosity and discontent.I have never known an outstanding man who lacked either.And I have never known an average man who had both. Together, these deep human urges (驱策力) count for much more than ambition.Galileo was not merely ambitious when he dropped objects of varying weights from the Leaning Tower at Pisa and timed their fall to the ground.Like Galileo, all the great names in history were curious and asked in discontent, “Why? Why? Why？” Fortunately, curiosity and discontent don't have to be learned.We are born with them and need only to recapture them.“The great man，” said Mencius, “is he who does not lose his child's heart.” Yet most of us do lose it.We stop asking questions.We stop challenging custom.We just follow the crowd.And the crowd desires only the calm and restful average. Most of us meet new people, and new ideas, with hesitation.But once having met and liked them, we think how terrible it would have been, had we missed the chance.We will probably have to force ourselves to waken our curiosity and discontent and keep them awake. How should you start? Modestly, so as not to become discouraged.I think of one friend who couldn't arrange flowers to satisfy herself.She was curious about how the experts did it. The way to begin is to answer your own excuses.You haven't any special ability? Most people don't; there are only a few geniuses.You haven't any time? That's good, because it's always the people with no time who get things done.Harriet Stowe, mother of six, wrote parts of Uncle Tom's Cabin while cooking.You're too old? Remember that Thomas Costain was 57 when he published his first novel, and that Grandma Moses showed her first pictures when she was 78. However you start, remember there is no better time to start than right now, for you'll never be more alive than you are at this moment. [语篇解读]　本文是一篇议论文。文章探讨了好奇心和不满足感对于成功的重要性，认为这两种深层次的人类驱策力比野心更重要。文章建议我们激发好奇心和不满足感，并勇于接触新事物和挑战传统，不断提高自己。最后，文章强调现在是开始行动的最佳时机。 4．In writing paragraph 1, the author aims to . A．present an argument B．make a comparison C．reach a conclusion D．propose a definition 解析：A　推理判断题。根据第一段关键句“After years of observing human nature, I have decided that two qualities make a difference between men of great achievement and men of average performance — curiosity and discontent.(经过多年对人性的观察，我发现有两种品质决定了成就卓越的人和表现一般的人的区别：好奇心和不满足感。)”可知，作者在第一段提出了文章的论点，告诉我们成就卓越的人和表现一般的人的区别在哪里即两种品质决定了成就卓越的人和表现一般的人的区别：好奇心和不满足感。由此可推知，写第一段内容时，作者旨在提出一个论点。故选A。 5．What does the example of Galileo tell us? A．Scientists tend to have varied ambitions. B．Trial and error leads to the finding of truth. C．Creativity results from challenging authority. D．Greatness comes from a lasting desire to explore. 解析：D　细节理解题。根据第二段“Together, these deep human urges count for much more than ambition.Galileo was not merely ambitious when he dropped objects of varying weights from the Leaning Tower at Pisa and timed their fall to the ground.Like Galileo, all the great names in history were curious and asked in discontent, ‘Why? Why? Why？’(总之，这些人类内心深处的欲望比野心要重要得多。当伽利略从比萨斜塔上扔下不同重量的物体并计算它们落地的时间时，他不仅仅是雄心勃勃。像伽利略一样，历史上所有伟大的人物都很好奇，并不满地问：‘为什么？为什么？为什么？’)”可知，作者通过伽利略的例子告诉我们人类的强烈欲望比雄心壮志更重要，历史上所有伟大的人物，他们的成功正是因为对事物的好奇和不断探索。由此可知，伽利略的例子告诉我们伟大来自对探索的持久渴望。故选D。 6．What can you do to recapture curiosity and discontent? A．Observe the unknown around you. B．Develop a questioning mind. C．Lead a life of adventure. D．Follow the fashion. 解析：B　推理判断题。根据第三段内容“‘The great man，’ said Mencius，‘is he who does not lose his child's heart.’Yet most of us do lose it.We stop asking questions.We stop challenging custom.We just follow the crowd.And the crowd desires only the calm and restful average.(孟子说：‘大人者，不失其赤子之心者也。’然而，我们大多数人都失去了它。我们不再问问题。我们不再挑战习俗。我们只是随大流。而大众只渴望平静宁静的普通人。)”以及第四段中“But once having met and liked them, we think how terrible it would have been, had we missed the chance.We will probably have to force ourselves to waken our curiosity and discontent and keep them awake.(但一旦遇见并喜欢上了他们，我们就会想，如果我们错过了这个机会，那该有多糟糕啊。我们可能不得不强迫自己唤醒我们的好奇心和不满足感，并让它们保持清醒。)”可知，要唤起我们的好奇心和不满足感，我们需要做与段落中相反的事，即我们要不满足于现状，勇于探索，勇于提出问题。由此可推知，你能通过培养质疑的思维来重新找回好奇心和不满足感。故选B。 7．What can we learn from the last two paragraphs? A．Gaining success helps you become an expert. B．The genius tends to get things done creatively. C．Lack of talent and time is no reason for taking no action. D．You should remain modest when approaching perfection. 解析：C　推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中“The way to begin is to answer your own excuses.You haven't any special ability? Most people don't; there are only a few geniuses.You haven't any time? That's good, because it's always the people with no time who get things done.(开始的方法是回答你自己的借口。你没有什么特殊能力吗？大多数人不会；天才屈指可数。你没有时间吗？这很好，因为总是那些没有时间的人能把事情做好。)”以及最后一段中“However you start, remember there is no better time to start than right now, for you'll never be more alive than you are at this moment.(无论你如何开始，记住没有比现在更好的开始时间，因为你永远不会比此刻更有活力。)”可推知，文章最后两段强调的是不要以自己没有时间和才能而不去采取行动。而是建议读者记住没有比现在更好的开始时间，因为你永远不会比此刻更有活力。故选C。 C Artificial intelligence has become increasingly common in recent years, appearing in various apps and tools.ChatGPT is a chatbot developed by Open AI and designed to converse (对话) with people, generate text and answer complicated questions.The name ChatGPT stands for “Generative Pre­trained Transformer”， which indicates its ability to use pre­training models to examine the connections between all elements of a data sequence (序列), that is, using a model from one machine learning assignment to train another model, much similar to how people use previously learned information when learning something new.ChatGPT offers a substantial amount of text to use for pre­training. ChatGPT was launched in November 2022, and the developer trained it to respond to follow­up questions, challenge incorrectness and admit mistakes.ChatGPT is also a generative AI tool that can create various types of content, including short stories, doctorate theses (论文), term papers, menus and more. ChatGPT makes it easier and faster for bloggers or content creators to produce high­quality text.It can answer complicated questions conversationally, using innovative technology to learn what humans mean when asking questions.Many people are impressed with its human­like responses, making it an efficient tool for generating written content. ChatGPT excels at language and information tasks.It has some restrictions built in that prevent it from providing toxic reactions that are against the right values.It's also designed to ignore improper requests.While the program provided pretty decent responses to intellectual questions, it cannot provide definitive answers to spiritual questions.Its answers are not always accurate, as it is trained to give human­feeling responses rather than necessarily being correct. Though AI tools can assist and enhance our abilities, we must avoid becoming too dependent on them, as this dependence can cost us our thinking abilities, critical skills and intellectual curiosity, which are vitally important for lifelong learning and growth.Thus, despite many advantages of ChatGPT, we must use it wisely to avoid losing crucial skills and cognitive abilities. [语篇解读]　本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一种名为ChatGPT的聊天机器人，旨在与人对话、生成文本并回答复杂问题。ChatGPT还可以创建各种类型的内容，包括短篇小说、论文、菜单等。ChatGPT在语言和信息任务方面表现出色，但它也有一些限制。尽管ChatGPT有许多优点，但我们必须明智地使用它，避免失去关键技能和认知能力。 8．What is ChatGPT? A．An AI tool designed for text editing. B．A chatbot that can replace human brain. C．A program generating human­like responses. D．A pre­trained model focused on language learning. 解析：A　细节理解题。根据第二段中“ChatGPT is also a generative AI tool that can create various types of content, including short stories, doctorate theses (论文), term papers, menus and more.(ChatGPT也是一个生成AI工具，可以创建各种类型的内容，包括短篇小说、博士论文、学期论文、菜单等)”可知，ChatGPT是一个为文本编辑而设计的人工智能工具。故选A。 9．What does the underlined word “toxic” mean in paragraph 4? A．Beneficial. B．Complicated. C．Harmful. D．Precise. 解析：C　词义猜测题。根据第四段中“reactions that are against the right values (违背正确价值观的反应)”可知，that引导限制性定语从句，先行词是reactions，违背正确价值观的反应应该是“有害的”，画线处作定语修饰名词reactions，其含义应为“有害的”；结合选项，A.Beneficial有益的；B.Complicated复杂的；C.Harmful有害的；D.Precise精确的。画线处和选项C含义相近。故选C。 10．What is the problem with ChatGPT? A．It cannot respond rapidly enough. B．The inbuilt restrictions may misguide users. C．It fails to provide convincing academic replies. D．Overreliance on it may weaken some essential human abilities. 解析：D　细节理解题。根据最后一段中“Though AI tools can assist and enhance our abilities, we must avoid becoming too dependent on them, as this dependence can cost us our thinking abilities, critical skills and intellectual curiosity, which are vitally important for lifelong learning and growth.(虽然人工智能工具可以帮助和增强我们的能力，但我们必须避免过于依赖它们，因为这种依赖会让我们丧失思考能力、批判技能和求知欲，而这些对终身学习和成长至关重要)”可知，ChatGPT的问题是过度依赖它可能会削弱人类的一些重要能力。故选D。 11．Where is the text probably taken from? A．A news report. B．A sci­tech magazine. C．An academic paper. D．A research document. 解析：B　推理判断题。本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了聊天机器人ChatGPT的功能、局限以及人们应该合理地使用它，属于科技类的文章。由此推知，这段文字可能是从一本科技杂志上摘录的。故选B。 D Tracking daily steps can motivate us to walk more.Tracking sleep can reveal sleep patterns and help improve them.Can tracking our moods make us happier? There are now many tech ways to log your emotions each day.Fitbit offers mood logging in its stress­management tool.Apps like Daylio focus on mood.The latest big player to enter the competition is Apple.Its latest software updates include a way to log your state of mind. Why log your mood? Many mental­health professionals say simply being aware of your mental state can identify patterns and improve well­being.When people can see associations between their moods and factors like sleep and exercise, these doctors say, it can be even more powerful.Apple's push into mental health comes as the country is experiencing a youth mental­health crisis and growing numbers of adults are struggling with depression. Then you can figure out if you feel better on days when you sleep well or exercise more.After selecting how they feel, people can then choose factors that have the biggest impact on their feelings, like travel or family.The features will be available in the Health app on iPhones and iPads.On the Apple Watch, it's in the Mindfulness app.Apple device users who track their moods will be able to share the log with their doctors.(Apple says it doesn't share Health app data with third parties without the user's permission.) “When people keep track of emotional changes and see linkages, it can lead them to make changes in their behavior，” says Michelle Craske, a psychology and psychiatry professor at UCLA who has studied the effects of mood tracking. But some research suggests that people don't experience lasting benefits because they don't track often or long enough.“A lot of mood­tracking tools are built on the idea that people would track their mood at least once a day because they're supposed to identify patterns and triggers (诱因)，” said Stephen Schueller, associate professor of psychological science at the University of California, who has studied mood­tracking apps.Schueller and his colleagues found that most people really only track their moods a couple of times a week.However, Schueller said that while there isn't enough evidence to say definitively that tracking your moods makes you happier, there aren't any downsides — except the few extra minutes a day on your phone. [语篇解读]　本文是说明文。介绍了情绪记录软件的研发背景和一些专家观点。 12．What motivates Apple to update the mood­tracking software? A．The growing need for emotion regulation. B．The fierce tech competition. C．The global mental­health crisis. D．The professionals' advice. 解析：A　推理判断题。根据第三段的“Apple's push into mental health comes as the country is experiencing a youth mental­health crisis and growing numbers of adults are struggling with depression.(苹果进军心理健康领域之际，美国正经历着一场青少年心理健康危机，越来越多的成年人正在与抑郁症作斗争。)”可推知，美国越来越多的人有心理健康危机，可得出对情绪调节的需求日益增长促使苹果更新情绪追踪软件，故选A。 13．Which measure can improve App users' mental health? A．Adjusting one's behavior accordingly. B．Sharing the record with a doctor. C．Monitoring one's exercise habits. D．Cutting down the screen time. 解析：A　细节理解题。根据倒数第二段的“When people keep track of emotional changes and see linkages, it can lead them to make changes in their behavior(当人们跟踪情绪变化并看到联系时，它可以引导他们在行为上做出改变)”可知，可以改善App用户的心理健康的措施是相应地调整自己的行为，故选A。 14．Why is Schueller uncertain about mood­tracking apps' benefits? A．Because users don't record long and often. B．Because the data can't be shared. C．Because extra screen time is harmful. D．Because the triggers are diverse. 解析：A　细节理解题。根据最后一段的“But some research suggests that people don't experience lasting benefits because they don't track often or long enough.(但一些研究表明，人们没有体验到持久的好处，因为他们不经常追踪或追踪时间不够长。)”可知，目前情绪记录软件的益处还不明确是由于用户使用的时长和频率还不够。故选A。 15．What is the best title of the text? A．Tips on Keeping a Good Mood B．Keeping Track of Good Emotions C．Apple's Efforts to Make You Happy D．Tracking Moods, Beneficial or Not 解析：D　主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第一段的“Can tracking our moods make us happier？(跟踪我们的情绪能让我们更快乐吗？)”，倒数第二段的“When people keep track of emotional changes and see linkages, it can lead them to make changes in their behavior(当人们跟踪情绪变化并看到联系时，它可以引导他们在行为上做出改变)”和最后一段的“But some research suggests that people don't experience lasting benefits because they don't track often or long enough.(但一些研究表明，人们没有体验到持久的好处，因为他们不经常追踪或追踪时间不够长。)”和“However, Schueller said that while there isn't enough evidence to say definitively that tracking your moods makes you happier, there aren't any downsides — except the few extra minutes a day on your phone.(然而，Schueller说，虽然没有足够的证据明确地说，跟踪你的情绪会让你更快乐，但它没有任何坏处——除了每天多花几分钟看手机。)”可知，本文介绍了专家们对于情绪记录软件的不同观点，有的支持，有的持怀疑态度，因此最好的题目是D选项“Tracking Moods, Beneficial or Not(跟踪情绪，有益与否)”。故选D。 第二节(共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 What exactly is the importance of teachers in the current educational landscape? The last few years have witnessed the rise of education technology and online tutoring firms. 16 Such people, however, have completely ignored the one thing that makes studying in a proper classroom irreplaceable and that is the importance of teachers. The internet has more information about any given topic than any one person can ever hope to possess. 17 Knowing that “tomato is a fruit” is information, and not putting it in a fruit salad is wisdom.This example does a perfect job in illustrating just how important wisdom is in the day to day life.Books and the internet can give you information, but only a teacher can pass on wisdom. 18 Understanding the reason for the poor performance of a particular child and helping them overcome their weakness while also pushing the top performers to do better are things only a teacher can do. You can develop the most amazing online tutoring platform and fill it with amazing and interesting videos but it is never enough. 19 But videos are made for a general audience.They can hardly be sufficient for the problems that students face in their life outside the classroom.Only teachers who have spent time with their students can guide the students in a way that can help them figure a way out of any problem they might be facing in their life. 20 While the list of reasons stating the importance of teachers is a bit too long to put in a single article, these two are sufficient to silence anyone who believes that going to school to be taught by proper teachers will soon become obsolete. A．Wisdom, however, is something that it badly lacks. B．Every single student is unique in his or her own way. C．Teachers are also important in shaping the future of the youth. D．On this point, the importance of teachers should never be understated. E．Everything people can possibly learn is freely available on the internet. F．Many argue that they might one day completely replace formal schooling. G．These are just two ways that teachers have a massive impact on their students. [语篇解读]　这是一篇议论文。近年来教育技术和在线辅导公司崛起了，许多人认为，它们可能有一天完全取代正规学校教育，文章就此进行论证，指出学校教育不会过时。 16．F　上文“The last few years have witnessed the rise of education technology and online tutoring firms.(过去几年见证了教育技术和在线辅导公司的崛起。)”提到教育技术和在线辅导公司崛起了，空处应该承接上文，具体说明教育技术和在线辅导公司的崛起，F选项“Many argue that they might one day completely replace formal schooling.(许多人认为，它们可能有一天完全取代正规学校教育。)”符合，指出许多人认为教育技术和在线辅导公司崛起了，有一天会完全代替正轨学校教育，同时和下文是转折关系，下文“Such people, however, have completely ignored the one thing that makes studying in a proper classroom irreplaceable and that is the importance of teachers.(然而，这些人却完全忽视了一件事，那就是教师的重要性，而正是这一点使得在合适的课堂上学习变得不可替代。)”中的“Such people”指代选项中的“Many”，故选F。 17．A　上文“The internet has more information about any given topic than any one person can ever hope to possess.(互联网上关于任何特定主题的信息比任何一个人希望拥有的都要多。)”指出互联网拥有的信息很多，下文“Knowing that ‘tomato is a fruit’ is information, and not putting it in a fruit salad is wisdom.This example does a perfect job in illustrating just how important wisdom is in the day to day life.Books and the internet can give you information, but only a teacher can pass on wisdom.(知道‘西红柿是一种水果’是信息，而不把它放在水果沙拉里是智慧。这个例子很好地说明了智慧在日常生活中的重要性。书籍和互联网可以给你信息，但只有老师才能传授智慧。)”指出互联网能提供给我们信息，但是却不能传递给我们智慧，所以空处应该引起下文，指出互联网缺乏智慧，A项“Wisdom, however, is something that it badly lacks.(然而，智慧是它严重缺乏的东西。)”符合，引起下文，故选A。 18．D　上文“Books and the internet can give you information, but only a teacher can pass on wisdom.(书籍和互联网可以给你信息，但只有老师才能传授智慧。)”指出只有老师才能传授给我们智慧，此处说明了老师的重要性，空处应该承接上文，D项“On this point, the importance of teachers should never be understated.(在这一点上，教师的重要性永远不应该被低估。)”符合，对上文进行总结，故选D。 19．B　上文“You can develop the most amazing online tutoring platform and fill it with amazing and interesting videos but it is never enough.(你可以开发最令人惊叹的在线辅导平台，并用令人惊叹和有趣的视频填充它，但这是永远不够的。)”指出你可以开发最令人惊叹的在线辅导平台，并用令人惊叹和有趣的视频填充它，但这是不够的，因为每个学生都是独一无二的，下文“But videos are made for a general audience.(但是视频是为普通观众制作的。)”说明了这一点，即为普通大众制作的视频是不适合所有学生的，因为每个学生都是独一无二的，B项“Every single student is unique in his or her own way.(每个学生都是独一无二的。)”符合，故选B。 20．G　下文“While the list of reasons stating the importance of teachers is a bit too long to put in a single article, these two are sufficient to silence anyone who believes that going to school to be taught by proper teachers will soon become obsolete.(虽然说明教师重要性的理由列表有点太长，不能放在一篇文章里，但这两种方法足以让那些认为去学校接受合适的教师教育很快就会过时的人噤声。)”指出文章提到的这两种方法足以让那些认为去学校接受合适的教师教育很快就会过时的人噤声，因此空处应该引起下文，提到这两种方法，G项“These are just two ways that teachers have a massive impact on their students.(这只是教师对学生产生巨大影响的两种方式。)”符合，故选G。 第二部分　语言运用(共两节，满分30分) 第一节(共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分) 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 A Different Perspective When my daughter Adrienne was twelve years old, she took a(n) 21 class.She informed me that real 22 use black­and­white film.I agreed.We bought some film and she decided to take pictures 23 the St.Louis' Gateway Arch (拱门)． The day was cloudy.I recommended we wait for sunshine, 24 she thought the light best for the photograph she expected.The minute we got to the 25 ， Adrienne walked up to one of the massive triangular legs, arched (拱起) her entire body backwards against it, arms stretched overhead, and pointed her 26 straight up the side of the arch.

As always, I wondered about my passenger.So I asked, “What do you do？” “I am working at the hospital.” For some unknown reason, I decided to ask for his help. “Could I ask a favour？” He didn't answer at first.But I continued, “I have a son, 16.He's doing well in school.He will graduate from senior high school.He wants a job this summer.Is there any possibility that you might get him a summer job？” After a minute, he said, “The medical students have a research project.Maybe he could fit in.Have him send me his school records.” He searched his pocket and handed me a card. That evening, when I got home, I pulled the card from my pocket.“Robbie，” I said proudly, “This could be a summer job for you.Send him your school records.” Robbie took the card and read it out loud, “Fred Plum, New York Hospital.” “Is this a joke？” he said in doubt.After I shouted and threatened to cut off his pocket­money, Robbie promised to send off his grades the next morning. 注意：1.续写词数应为150左右； 2．请按如下格式作答。 Two weeks later, when I arrived home, the whole family waited for me excitedly.
