While career quizzes explore your values and work style, aptitude tests provide a more objective evaluation of your skills, helping you select a career you’re most likely to succeed in. Below are some of the best aptitude tests out there. Clifton Strengths The Clifton Strengths program was created based on research around leadership. The research in question pointed to common strengths among successful leaders, like strategic thinking, adaptability and communication. To complete the test, you must answer around 150 questions, each within 20 seconds. Allen Cheung, a tech blogger, notes that Clifton Strengths is more valuable than your average career test because it includes “tricky questions which aren’t as easily gamed”. Red Bull Wingfinder Developed and tested out by psychology experts, the Red Bull Wingfinder assesses your thinking under pressure. Questions include image sorting, logic puzzles and leadership-related questions. Once you complete the test, you’ll receive a nine-page report and career coaching tailored to your results. SEI Development Report The SEI Development Report is an extensive EQ aptitude test that has timed right-and-wrong answers that assess eight fundamentals, including emotional literacy, emotional management and empathy. At the end, you’ll receive a 20-page report with recommended courses on workplace EQ development. CareerOneStop While it only takes a few minutes to complete, the CareerOneStop Skills Assessment will help you rank both your technical and soft skills. The career suggestions at the end can be categorized by relevance, annual wages, and job outlook, coupled with professional coaching or consultation to improve your skills. 21. What do aptitude tests mainly assess for job seekers? A. Their work morals. B. Their preferred work style. C. Their career interest. D. Their professional competence. 22. What is a unique feature of Clifton Strengths? A. It evaluates leadership skills. B. It develops strategic thinking. C. It includes challenging questions. D. It offers a comprehensive report. 23. Which test suits those who prefer sorted suggestions and career coaching? A. Clifton Strengths. B. Red Bull Wingfinder. C. SEI Development Report. D. CareerOneStop. 【答案】21. D 22. C 23. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇应用文。文章推荐了四款很好的能力倾向测试。 【21题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“While career quizzes explore your values and work style, aptitude tests provide a more objective evaluation of your skills, helping you select a career you’re most likely to succeed in. (职业测验考查的是你的价值观和工作方式，而能力倾向测试则是对你的技能进行更客观的评估，帮助你选择最有可能成功的职业。)”可知，能力倾向测试主要评估求职者的专业能力。故选D项。 【22题详解】 细节理解题。根据Clifton Strengths中“Allen Cheung, a tech blogger, notes that Clifton Strengths is more valuable than your average career test because it includes “tricky questions which aren’t as easily gamed”. (科技博客作者Allen Cheung指出，克利夫顿优势评估比一般的职业测试更有价值，因为它包含了“不那么容易回答的棘手问题”。)”可知，克利夫顿优势评估的一个独特之处在于它包含了具有挑战性的问题。故选C项。 【23题详解】 细节理解题。根据CareerOneStop中“The career suggestions at the end can be categorized by relevance, annual wages, and job outlook, coupled with professional coaching or consultation to improve your skills. (最后的职业建议可以根据相关度、年薪和工作前景进行分类，再加上专业的指导或咨询，以提高你的技能。)”可知，这项测试提供分类的建议和专业的指导，适合对这方面有需求的人。故选D项。 B Growing up, Maitri Wadher, a left-hander, has struggled to cope in a world made for right-handed people. From school desks to spiral notebooks that stop the natural flow of writing, Maitri has faced tough challenges from a young age. “My mother used to tie my left hand and make me eat with my right until a doctor warned that this could significantly affect my growth and confidence,” Maitri says. This childhood experience had gnawed (折磨) at the back of her mind, pushing her to do something to ease the lives of fellow left-handers. In September 2018, she started The Left Out Store, which makes everyday products ranging from left-handed writing tools and scissors to kitchen tools for left-handed people. Starting The Left Out Store wasn’t in the cards for Maitri for a very long time. The idea for The Left Out Store came to Maitri in just 20 minutes during a festival at St. Joseph’s Institute of Management, where she was a post-graduate student. She presented the rough idea to judges who later became sponsors, and they enthusiastically supported it. This encouragement gave her the push to make it a market research project to test the waters and explore the potential market. Initially, Maitri faced a few hiccups. It took her quite some time to find vendors (小贩) and make them understand how to make the products. With everything in place, Maitri went through a tough time reaching customers. The first time she made a proper sale was at an exhibition at Lalit Ashok. “People were surprised at first, but gradually more left-handed people began approaching me, and said they relate to my struggles.” Since then, she has been regularly marketing her products at exhibitions, and keeps The Left Out Store active on social media. 24. What challenge did Maitri face as a left-hander while growing up? A. Unfair judgement. B. Lack of parents’ love. C. Limited access to education. D. Struggle with school tools. 25. How did Maitri turn her idea into a reality? A. By seeking student sponsors. B. By conducting market research. C. By expanding the potential market. D. By carrying out her long-thought plan. 26. What does the underlined word “hiccups” probably mean? A. Barriers. B. Threats C. Complaints. D. Oppositions. 27. What might be a suitable title for the passage? A A Left-Hander’s Struggles B. Maitri’s Marketing Strategies C. Maitri: A Social Media Celebrity D. The Left Out Store: Maitri’s Journey 【答案】24. D 25. B 26. A 27. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了Maitri因为是左撇子，从小在学校遇到了很多困难。于是后来她萌生了创办“左手商店”的想法，并通过努力付诸实践。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“From school desks to spiral notebooks that stop the natural flow of writing, Maitri has faced tough challenges from a young age.(从学校的课桌到阻止书写自然流畅的螺旋笔记本，Maitri从小就面临着严峻的挑战)”可知，作为一名左撇子，Maitri在成长过程中遇到的挑战是与学校工具作斗争。故选D。 【25题详解】 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“This encouragement gave her the push to make it a market research project to test the waters and explore the potential market.(这种鼓励促使她把它变成一个市场研究项目，以试水和探索潜在市场)”可知，Maitri通过开展市场研究项目把她的想法变成现实。故选B。 【26题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线词后文“It took her quite some time to find vendors (小贩) and make them understand how to make the products.(她花了很长时间才找到供应商，并让他们了解如何制作产品)”可知，她花了很长时间才找到供应商，并让他们了解如何制作产品，说明一开始遇到了障碍。故划线词意思是“障碍”。故选A。 【27题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第二段“This childhood experience had gnawed (折磨) at the back of her mind, pushing her to do something to ease the lives of fellow left-handers. In September 2018, she started The Left Out Store, which makes everyday products ranging from left-handed writing tools and scissors to kitchen tools for left-handed people.(这段童年经历一直在她的脑海里挥之不去，促使她做些事情来缓解其他左撇子的生活。2018年9月，她创办了“左手商店”，生产从左撇子书写工具、剪刀到左撇子厨房工具等日常用品)”结合文章主要讲述了Maitri因为是左撇子，从小在学校遇到了很多困难。于是后来她萌生了创办“左手商店”的想法，并通过努力付诸实践。可知，D选项“左手商店：Maitri的旅程”最符合文章标题。故选D。 C As a senior resident, I often distributed poems to my team, printing and posting them above the computers in our hospital workrooms. Once, during a rare quiet moment in the ICU, with permission from my colleagues (同事), I read a couple of poems out loud. I remember watching my colleagues’ eyes close and their bodies visibly relax as the words washed over them. Since then, I have shared poems — my own and others’ — in talks at my institution and across the country. I’ve also led other healthcare providers in creative writing exercises during workshops, lectures and classes. Many institutions host book clubs, story slams, film screenings and other opportunities for medical learners to engage with the humanities (人文学科). While poetry can be frightening to some, many contemporary poems provide approachable emotional experiences. Pieces like Safiya Sinclair’s “Notes on the State of Virginia” fully illustrate how a place that seems innocent or even beautiful to some can be upsetting to others. Monica Sok’s “ABC for Refugees” powerfully paints a portrait of a young child caught between languages and cultures — a reality that many pediatric (儿科的) patients face. “Ode to Small Towns” by Tyree Daye overturn s common assumptions about rural life. In “Medical History”, Nicole Sealey shares a patient’s perspective (视角) on a part of health care that, for many of my students and colleagues, has been reduced to a series of check boxes on a computer screen. These and other poems provide fertile ground for enhanced understanding of the human condition, as well as inspiration for a clinician’s own potentially transformative reflective writing. The possibilities for cooperation between literature and medicine are wide open. I believe all clinicians have a role in recognizing and dealing with how everyone has been shaped by an unreasonable society. The history, sociopolitical context, imaginative perspective and reflective practices the humanities offer may improve the practice of medicine. Through understanding others’ experiences and reflecting critically on their own, every clinician can move closer to being the kind of healer they intend to be. 28. Why did the author like to share poems at work? A. To cure his patients. B. To bring in the humanities. C. To make his colleagues amazed. D. To practice for a competition. 29. Whose poem may change people’s beliefs about the countryside? A. Tyree Daye’s. B. Monica Sok’s. C. Safiya Sinclair’s. D. Nicole Sealey’s. 30. What does Nicole Sealey’s work seem to imply? A. It’s urgent to upgrade the medical equipment. B. Doctors should have better medical skills. C. There’s room for improvement in medical care. D. A patient can be treated from different perspectives. 31. Which statement does the author probably agree with? A. The humanities help make a better doctor. B. The clinicians are to shape our future society. C. Doctors must learn from each other’s experiences. D. Reflective writing greatly benefits a doctor’s skills. 【答案】28. B 29. A 30. C 31. A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了一名医师通过在医院分享诗歌和引导创意写作，将人文艺术融入医学实践的经历。诗歌作为一种媒介，帮助医护人员增进情感共鸣、同理心及自我反思，从而在医疗工作中展现更多人性关怀，提升医疗质量。文章强调了文学与医学结合的重要性，认为这能培养出更富有同情心和全面性的治疗者。 【28题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“Since then, I have shared poems—my own and others’—in talks at my institution and across the country. I’ve also led other healthcare providers in creative writing exercises during workshops, lectures and classes. Many institutions host book clubs, story slams, film screenings and other opportunities for medical learners to engage with the humanities (人文学科).”（从那以后，我在学校和全国各地的演讲中分享我自己和别人的诗歌。我还在研讨会、讲座和课堂上带领其他医疗保健提供者进行创意写作练习。许多机构举办读书俱乐部、故事大赛、电影放映等活动，为医学学习者提供接触人文学科的机会。）可推知，作者喜欢在工作中分享诗歌是为了引入人文学科。故选B项。 【29题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中““Ode to Small Towns” by Tyree Daye overturn s common assumptions about rural life.”（泰里·戴耶的《小镇颂》颠覆了我们对乡村生活的普遍看法。）可知，泰里·戴耶的诗能改变人们对乡村的看法。故选A项。 【30题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中“In “Medical History”, Nicole Sealey shares a patient’s perspective(视角) on a part of health care that, for many of my students and colleagues, has been reduced to a series of check boxes on a computer screen. These and other poems provide fertile ground for enhanced understanding of the human condition, as well as inspiration for a clinician’s own potentially transformative reflective writing.”（在《医学史》一书中，妮可·西利分享了一位病人对医疗保健部分的看法，对我的许多学生和同事来说，这部分医疗保健已被简化为电脑屏幕上的一系列复选框。这些诗歌和其他诗歌为增进对人类状况的理解提供了肥沃的土壤，也为临床医生自己潜在的变革性反思写作提供了灵感。）可推知，妮可·西利的作品似乎暗示医疗保健还有改进的余地。故选C项。 【31题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“The possibilities for cooperation between literature and medicine are wide open. I believe all clinicians have a role in recognizing and dealing with how everyone has been shaped by an unreasonable society. The history, sociopolitical context, imaginative perspective and reflective practices the humanities offer may improve the practice of medicine. Through understanding others’ experiences and reflecting critically on their own, every clinician can move closer to being the kind of healer they intend to be.”（文学与医学合作的可能性非常大。我相信所有的临床医生都有责任认识到并处理每个人是如何被一个不合理的社会塑造的。人文学科提供的历史、社会政治背景、富有想象力的视角和反思实践可能会改善医学实践。通过理解他人的经历并批判性地反思自己，每个临床医生都能更接近于成为他们想成为的那种治疗师。）可推知，作者可能同意的观点是人文学科有助于培养更好的医生。故选A项。 D The ban on cigarette advertising in the early 1970s in the United States serves as a fascinating case study in the field of public health campaigns and their unintended consequences. Despite the government’s intention to discourage smoking and reduce related health risks, the ban led to an unexpected outcome: an increase in cigarette sales for the major tobacco companies. The reason for this unexpected outcome can be traced to the principles of game theory, particularly the prisoner’s dilemma paradox (悖论). Just as in the prisoner’s dilemma, where cooperation leads to the best outcome for both parties, the tobacco companies would benefit collectively if none of them advertised. This action would create fairness in competition, ensuring that no individual company gains an edge by advertising. However, the dilemma arises when considering the potential actions of competitors. If one tobacco company decides to ignore the ban and advertise its products, it stands to gain a significant market share and increased sales compared to its non-advertising competitors. This creates a situation where each company faces the urge to advertise, fearing that their competitors may do the same and leave them at a disadvantage. In the end, most tobacco companies decided to play it safe and invested in advertising, despite the ban, to avoid being left behind in the competitive landscape. This strategic decision reflects the uncertainty and strategic considerations that shape business decisions, even in the face of regulations aimed at public health goals. This application of game theory provides valuable insight into the complexities of influencing human behavior through policy interventions. While well-intended efforts such as advertising bans may seem straightforward in theory, the realities of strategic decision-making and competitive dynamics often lead to unforeseen outcomes. As such, understanding the complexities of game theory can provide valuable insight for policymakers seeking to design more effective interventions and address complex societal challenges. 32. What is a direct result of the ban in the 1970s? A. Cut in tax income. B. Reduction in health risks. C. Rise in tobacco sales. D. Cooperation of companies. 33. How can all competitors benefit in the prisoner’s dilemma? A. They fully trust each other and follow the regulations. B. They act independently and pursue their own interests. C. They increase their market share at the expense of others. D. They ignore competition and focus on their own strategies. 34. Why do most tobacco companies finally choose to advertise? A. To avoid intense competition. B. To gain a competitive advantage. C. To shape better business images. D. To achieve public health goals. 35. What can be a suitable title for the passage? A. A Good Intention Fails. B. A Cigarette Ban Ends in Smoke. C. A Ban Boosts Public Health. D. A Dilemma Concems Cigarette Compames. 【答案】32 C 33. A 34. B 35. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章以20世纪70年代禁令的直接后果是烟草销售增加为引入，说明了背后的“囚徒困境”现象。 【32题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“Despite the government’s intention to discourage smoking and reduce related health risks, the ban led to an unexpected outcome: an increase in cigarette sales for the major tobacco companies.(尽管政府的意图是劝阻吸烟，减少相关的健康风险，但禁令导致了一个意想不到的结果：主要烟草公司的卷烟销量增加)”可知，20世纪70年代禁令的直接后果是烟草销售增加。故选C。 【33题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“Just as in the prisoner’s dilemma, where cooperation leads to the best outcome for both parties, the tobacco companies would benefit collectively if none of them advertised.(正如在囚徒困境中，合作会给双方带来最好的结果一样，如果烟草公司都不做广告，它们将共同受益)”可知，在囚徒困境中，如果竞争对手相互信任并遵守规则，则对所有竞争对手都有利。故选A。 【34题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“If one tobacco company decides to ignore the ban and advertise its products, it stands to gain a significant market share and increased sales compared to its non-advertising competitors.(如果一家烟草公司决定无视禁令并为其产品做广告，那么与不做广告的竞争对手相比，它将获得显著的市场份额并增加销售额)”可知，大多数烟草公司最终选择做广告是为了获得竞争优势。故选B。 【35题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“The ban on cigarette advertising in the early 1970s in the United States serves as a fascinating case study in the field of public health campaigns and their unintended consequences. Despite the government’s intention to discourage smoking and reduce related health risks, the ban led to an unexpected outcome: an increase in cigarette sales for the major tobacco companies.( 20世纪70年代初，美国对香烟广告的禁令是公共卫生运动及其意外后果领域的一个引人入胜的研究案例。尽管政府的意图是劝阻吸烟，减少相关的健康风险，但禁令导致了一个意想不到的结果：主要烟草公司的卷烟销量增加)”和第四段中“In the end, most tobacco companies decided to play it safe and invested in advertising, despite the ban, to avoid being left behind in the competitive landscape.(最后，大多数烟草公司决定避免风险，不顾禁令，投资广告，以避免在竞争格局中落后)”可知，文章讲述了20世纪70年代禁令的直接后果是部分烟草公司销售增加，最终大多数烟草公司陷入“囚徒困境”，决定不顾禁令，投资广告，以避免在竞争格局中落后。香烟广告的禁令最后化为云烟。故“A Cigarette Ban Ends in Smoke(禁令化作云烟)”是文章最佳标题。故选B。 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。 If you want to develop maximum credibility (可信性), is it better to be a hedgehog (刺猬) or a fox? According to Isaiah Berlin, the hedgehog knows one thing very well, and the fox knows a lot of things. Is there a clear advantage of one style over the other? Hedgehog thinkers tend to answer yes. ___36___ And they are usually very credible in doing so. According to Jim Hart, the “hedgehog concept” is one of the factors that lead companies to greatness. They focus on one thing and do it really well. They figure out what they are good at. ___37___ The hedgehog concept makes perfect sense for companies. ___38___ Philip Tate has studied the track records of those folks on the Sunday talk shows who make predictions about what will happen. He has found that hedgehogs are not only wrong more often than foxes, but that they are less likely to recognise or admit that they are wrong when events do not match their predictions. The advantage that foxes have is that they are more likely to seek out new information from a broader range of sources, and are comfortable with uncertainty and new information. ___39___ They try to include it in their viewpoint rather than to exclude it from their thinking. They also have a clearer estimation of what they know and don’t know. So, which is better? The question can be answered in a foxy hedgehog style. ___40___ The choice between being a hedgehog or a fox is a false trade-off. The most effective way to go through life is to try to be that rare mixture known as foxy hedgehog. A. In other words, there are clear advantages for each. B. They are more likely to remember people’s mistakes. C. Hence, they have the advantage of clarity and confidence. D. But there can be a downside to concentration on one big thing. E. However, hedgehogs remain open to others’ reactions and inputs. F. When something is contradictory to their view, they don’t treat it as exceptional. G. They come down squarely on one side or the other and fully support their position. 【答案】36. G 37. C 38. D 39. F 40. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了拥有“刺猬”型思维方式和“狐狸”型思维方式的两类人对于个人和企业建立信誉度的优劣势。 【36题详解】 根据上文“Hedgehog thinkers tend to answer yes.(拥有“刺猬”型思维方式的人倾向于给出肯定的答案)” 可知，拥有“刺猬”型思维方式的人倾向于给出肯定的答案，G项中They 指代上文中的Hedgehog，G项“他们明确地站在一边或另一边，并全力支持自己的立场”说明拥有“刺猬”型思维方式的人往往有明确的立场，承接上文，符合语境。故选G。 【37题详解】 根据上文“They focus on one thing and do it really well. They figure out what they are good at. (他们专注于一件事并把它做得很好。他们知道自己擅长什么)”可知，拥有“刺猬”型思维方式的人具备优点，他们可以专注于一件事并知道自己擅长什么。C项“因此，他们的优势是（头脑）清楚和自信”进一步说明拥有“刺猬”型思维方式的人的优点，承接上文，符合语境。故选C。 【38题详解】 根据下文“He has found that hedgehogs are not only wrong more often than foxes, but that they are less likely to recognise or admit that they are wrong when events do not match their predictions. (他发现，拥有“刺猬”型思维方式的人不仅比拥有“狐狸”型思维方式的人更容易出错，而且当事情与他们的预测不相符时他们不太可能意识到，也不太可能承认自己错了)”可知，此处介绍拥有“刺猬”型思维方式的人的缺点。D项“但是，把注意力集中在一件大事上可能会有不利的一面” 引出下文，介绍拥有“刺猬”型思维方式的人具备缺点，符合语境。故选D。 【39题详解】 根据上文“The advantage that foxes have is that they are more likely to seek out new information from a broader range of sources, and are comfortable with uncertainty and new information. (“狐狸”型思维方式的人的优势在于，他们更有可能从更广泛的来源中寻找新信息，并且对不确定性和新信息感到舒适)”和下文“They try to include it in their viewpoint rather than to exclude it from their thinking. (他们试图将其纳入自己的观点，而不是将其排除在自己的思维之外)”可知，此处介绍拥有“狐狸”型思维方式的人处理事情的方式。F项“当某件事与他们的观点相矛盾时，他们不会把它当作例外”承上启下，符合语境。故选F。 【40题详解】 根据上文“The question can be answered in a foxy hedgehog style. (这个问题可以用“像狐狸的刺猬”风格来回答)”和下文“The choice between being a hedgehog or a fox is a false trade-off. (成为拥有“刺猬”型思维方式的人还是拥有“狐狸”型思维方式的人的选择是一种错误的权衡)”可知，拥有“刺猬”型思维方式的人和拥有“狐狸”型思维方式的人各有优势。A项“换句话说，两者都有其明显的优势”承上启下，符合语境。故选A。 【点睛】 第三部分：语言知识运用(共两节，满分45分) 第一节：完形填空(共15小题;满分15分) William was one of my students.

And those that did had never gotten so tall. （在过去的几年里，很少有种子能成功地长出新芽。而那些真正发芽了的也从来没有这么高过。）”可知，学生种的向日葵，有的发芽了，有的没发芽，所以结果各不相同。故选A项。 【46题详解】 考查形容词词义辨析。播种对许多学生来说是令人兴奋的事，而（维持其）生长就不那么令人兴奋了。句意：A. best 最好的；B. growing生长； C. easy容易的； D. picking 采摘。根据下文的“It took too long to see results from daily watering（要看到结果需要长时间的每天浇水）”和“most kids lost interest（大部分孩子没了兴趣）”可知，维持向日葵生长就不那么令人兴奋了。故选B项。 【47题详解】 考查名词词义辨析。句意：要看到结果，需要长期坚持每天浇水，大多数孩子都失去了耐心和兴趣。A. chance机会； B. courage勇气； C. patience耐心； D. ability 能力。根据上文的“ It took too long to see results from daily watering”可知，要看到结果，需要长期坚持每天浇水，所以大部分孩子失去了耐心。故选C项。 【48题详解】 考查动词短语辨析。句意：结果，他们忘记了照顾他们的向日葵。A. show off 炫耀；B. sell out 卖光；C. carry away 带走；D. care for 照顾。由上一句的“most kids lost patience and interest.（大部分孩子没了耐心和兴趣）”可知，他们忘了照顾他们的向日葵。故选D项。 【49题详解】 考查动词词义辨析。句意：每天下午，威廉都要确保给所有的容器浇水和培育。A. filled填满； B. watered浇水； C. cleaned打扫； D .repaired维修。由上一句“But not William.（威廉不是那样的。）”可知，威廉和其他的孩子不一样，他没有忘记照顾向日葵，每天下午都给它们浇水。故选B项。 【50题详解】 考查名词词义辨析。句意：在学年的最后一周，这些幼苗大约有四英寸高了。A. plants植物； B. containers容器；C. shoots幼苗； D. seeds种子。由下文的“In years past, few seeds successfully produced new shoots. And those that did had never gotten so tall. （在过去的几年里，很少有种子能成功地长出新芽)”可知，其他孩子种的向日葵很少能成功地长出新芽，但威廉种的向日葵长出来幼苗。故选C项。 【51题详解】 考查动词词义辨析。句意：这让我非常惊讶。A. puzzled 使困惑；B. bothered打扰； C. benefited受益； D. amazed使惊讶。因为下文提到“In years past, few seeds successfully produced new shoots.（在过去的几年里，很少有种子能成功地长出新芽)”，其他很多孩子没做到的，威廉做到了，所以作者很惊讶。故选D项。 【52题详解】 考查形容词词义辨析。句意：但这些（幼苗）是不同的。A. similar相似的； B. different不同的； C. natural自然的；D. organic有机的。由上一句“And those that did had never gotten so tall. （那些发芽了的却没长这么高）”和下一句的but可知，威廉的向日葵和其他人的不同。故选B项。 【53题详解】 考查名词词义辨析。句意：这就是当老师的意义。A. teacher 老师；B. gardener园丁； C. parent父母； D. teenager青少年。 由文章第一句“William was one of my students.”知道，作者是老师，他根据威廉的特点因人施教，让其成长，这就是当老师的意义。故选A项。 【54题详解】 考查动词词义辨析。句意：那一刻，我知道我不必担心威廉。A. criticize 批评；B. praise赞扬； C. evaluate评估； D. concern担心。 文章第一段提到“After the mid-term test, William's grade showed no sign of improvement.（期中考试后，威廉的成绩没有任何提高的迹象。）”开始作者是为威廉担心的，但是通过种向日葵这件事让作者看到威廉的兴趣和特长，作者看到他体内种下了一颗特殊的种子“I'd seen that special seed planted inside him.”。所以作者知道不必为他担心。故选D项。 【55题详解】 考查动词词义辨析。句意：有一天，他会开始成长、成熟和发光，就像他的向日葵一样。A. bend 弯曲；B. explore探索； C. grow生长； D. respond回应。根据上文提到的他体内种下了特殊的种子“that special seed planted inside him”和下文的“just like his sunflowers(正像他的向日葵一样。)”可知，有一天他会像种子一样开始成长。故选C项。 第二节 (共10小题;每小题1.5分，满分15分) 阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。 The Organising Committee for the Olympic Games Paris 2024 has unveiled its new emblem.

As a girl of shy and reserved nature, I had to take a fresh start to fit into the sophisticated city life. One sunny day, my school announced an exciting event, a talent show for the local food bank. Students were encouraged to showcase their unique talents in front of the public in the city hall on National Day. A buzz of excitement fed the school as everyone began preparing for the big day. Deep down, I felt a spark of curiosity and a desire to participate. However, my self-doubt held me back, “I don’t have any special skills to share.” Days turned into weeks, and the talent show drew closer. I couldn’t shake the upsetting feeling until one day, Emma, one of the most popular girls in my class, came to me while I was helping in the grocery store after class. “How about singing together in the talent show?” She grinned, “I heard you singing a tune, along the way back home. I can’t help following you here.” Gosh, I couldn’t believe my ears. Emma, with personality and popularity, acknowledged my little talent. Since Emma had the world’s prettiest voice, I felt like being favoured by fortune. “You two? The talent show for the food bank?” My mum bent towards us and her face lit up. “A big occasion.” Then a light bulb seemed to go in her head. “Why not practise right now upstairs? I bet you’ll be a perfect match.” Winking at us, she seemed to know we were thinking alike. Emma and I embarked on rehearsing almost every single day after school. We brainstormed, exchanged ideas and rehearsed the scene. As the days rolled by, I was feeling pretty good about our act. But the day before the performance, Emma called that she had an acute stomachache and was not in any shape to perform. 注意： 1.所续写短文的词数应为150左右； 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Paragraph 1: I was completely knocked out by the news. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: Finally came the big moment. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】I was completely knocked out by the news. What should I do? Having prepared for such a long time, I didn’t think of that coming up. Feeling at a loss, I was brainstorming as hard as I could to think of a solution, when a gentle touch on my back brought me back to reality. It was my mum, who looked at me with care and concern. “You have prepared for it enough. You can do it by yourself.” She said after my stumbled explanation. I looked back at her eyes, and a sense of confidence and warmness swelled up in my heart. Yes, I could do it myself. Finally came the big moment. Looking around the audience, I stepped onto the stage, with butterflies in my stomach. My voice trembled at first, but with the melodies flew around, the nervousness was gone with the wind. Emotions filled in my song, I performed as naturally as I spoke every day. I saw my mum, who was looking at me with reassurance and care. It turned out to be a good performance, which helped me conquer my fears and turned me into a new person. 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇读后续写。文章讲述了作者自小性格内向，不爱交际。偶然一次机会，学校组织学生参加才艺表演，同学Emma盛情邀请作者一同参加，这使得作者备受鼓舞。然而在演出前夕，Emma却因急性胃疼不能上台，面对紧急情况，作者只能自己独立完成表演。 【详解】1. 段落续写： ①根据第一段首句“我被这个消息所震惊了。”可知，作者在收到Emma不能参演的消息时一时手足无措，再根据第四段妈妈的表现可知，此时妈妈一定会及时出现，安慰作者并给作者勇气，让作者能独立完成表演。 ②根据第二段首句“重大时刻终于到来了。”可知，作者坚持独立上台表演了。可想而知作者刚登上舞台还是会紧张，但是作者天生有副好嗓子，随着表演深入，这种紧张感会消失，并且精彩的完成表演。 2. 续写线索：手足无措——妈妈安慰并打气——决定独立上台——克服紧张，表演完成——升华 3. 词汇激活 行为类 ① 表演：perform/make a performance/show one’s talents ② 做准备：prepare for/make preparations for ③ 参加：participate in/join in/take part in/be involved in ④ 笑：grin/smile/laugh/giggle/chuckle 情绪类 ① 害羞内向的：shy/reserved/introverted ② 好奇的：curious/be full of curiosity ③ 开心的：delighted/overjoyed/content ④ 担忧的：concerned/worried/butterflies in one’s stomach 【点睛】[高分句型1] Having prepared for such a long time, I didn’t think of that coming up.（运用了现在分词作时间状语） [高分句型2] Emotions filled in my song, I performed as naturally as I spoke every day.（运用了独立主格结构） [高分句型3] I saw my mum, who was looking at me with reassurance and care.（运用了who引导的定语从句） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 丰城九中2024-2025学年上学期高三入学考试试卷 英语 本试卷总分值为150分 考试时间为120分钟 第一部分：听力 第一节(共5小题;每小题1.5分，满分7.5分) 听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项，并标在试卷的相应位置。听完每段对话后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对话仅读一遍。 1. 【此处可播放相关音频，请去附件查看】 Where does the conversation take place?

B Growing up, Maitri Wadher, a left-hander, has struggled to cope in a world made for right-handed people. From school desks to spiral notebooks that stop the natural flow of writing, Maitri has faced tough challenges from a young age. “My mother used to tie my left hand and make me eat with my right until a doctor warned that this could significantly affect my growth and confidence,” Maitri says. This childhood experience had gnawed (折磨) at the back of her mind, pushing her to do something to ease the lives of fellow left-handers. In September 2018, she started The Left Out Store, which makes everyday products ranging from left-handed writing tools and scissors to kitchen tools for left-handed people. Starting The Left Out Store wasn’t in the cards for Maitri for a very long time. The idea for The Left Out Store came to Maitri in just 20 minutes during a festival at St. Joseph’s Institute of Management, where she was a post-graduate student. She presented the rough idea to judges who later became sponsors, and they enthusiastically supported it. This encouragement gave her the push to make it a market research project to test the waters and explore the potential market. Initially, Maitri faced a few hiccups. It took her quite some time to find vendors (小贩) and make them understand how to make the products. With everything in place, Maitri went through a tough time reaching customers. The first time she made a proper sale was at an exhibition at Lalit Ashok. “People were surprised at first, but gradually more left-handed people began approaching me, and said they relate to my struggles.” Since then, she has been regularly marketing her products at exhibitions, and keeps The Left Out Store active on social media. 24. What challenge did Maitri face as a left-hander while growing up? A. Unfair judgement. B. Lack of parents’ love. C. Limited access to education. D. Struggle with school tools. 25. How did Maitri turn her idea into a reality? A. By seeking student sponsors. B. By conducting market research. C. By expanding the potential market. D. By carrying out her long-thought plan. 26. What does the underlined word “hiccups” probably mean? A. Barriers. B. Threats C. Complaints. D. Oppositions. 27. What might be a suitable title for the passage? A. A Left-Hander’s Struggles B. Maitri’s Marketing Strategies C. Maitri: A Social Media Celebrity D. The Left Out Store: Maitri’s Journey C As a senior resident, I often distributed poems to my team, printing and posting them above the computers in our hospital workrooms. Once, during a rare quiet moment in the ICU, with permission from my colleagues (同事), I read a couple of poems out loud. I remember watching my colleagues’ eyes close and their bodies visibly relax as the words washed over them. Since then, I have shared poems — my own and others’ — in talks at my institution and across the country. I’ve also led other healthcare providers in creative writing exercises during workshops, lectures and classes. Many institutions host book clubs, story slams, film screenings and other opportunities for medical learners to engage with the humanities (人文学科). While poetry can be frightening to some, many contemporary poems provide approachable emotional experiences. Pieces like Safiya Sinclair’s “Notes on the State of Virginia” fully illustrate how a place that seems innocent or even beautiful to some can be upsetting to others. Monica Sok’s “ABC for Refugees” powerfully paints a portrait of a young child caught between languages and cultures — a reality that many pediatric (儿科的) patients face. “Ode to Small Towns” by Tyree Daye overturn s common assumptions about rural life. In “Medical History”, Nicole Sealey shares a patient’s perspective (视角) on a part of health care that, for many of my students and colleagues, has been reduced to a series of check boxes on a computer screen. These and other poems provide fertile ground for enhanced understanding of the human condition, as well as inspiration for a clinician’s own potentially transformative reflective writing. The possibilities for cooperation between literature and medicine are wide open. I believe all clinicians have a role in recognizing and dealing with how everyone has been shaped by an unreasonable society. The history, sociopolitical context, imaginative perspective and reflective practices the humanities offer may improve the practice of medicine. Through understanding others’ experiences and reflecting critically on their own, every clinician can move closer to being the kind of healer they intend to be. 28. Why did the author like to share poems at work? A. To cure his patients. B. To bring in the humanities. C. To make his colleagues amazed. D. To practice for a competition. 29. Whose poem may change people’s beliefs about the countryside? A. Tyree Daye’s. B. Monica Sok’s. C. Safiya Sinclair’s. D. Nicole Sealey’s. 30. What does Nicole Sealey’s work seem to imply? A. It’s urgent to upgrade the medical equipment. B. Doctors should have better medical skills. C. There’s room for improvement in medical care. D. A patient can be treated from different perspectives. 31. Which statement does the author probably agree with? A. The humanities help make a better doctor. B. The clinicians are to shape our future society. C. Doctors must learn from each other’s experiences. D. Reflective writing greatly benefits a doctor’s skills. D The ban on cigarette advertising in the early 1970s in the United States serves as a fascinating case study in the field of public health campaigns and their unintended consequences. Despite the government’s intention to discourage smoking and reduce related health risks, the ban led to an unexpected outcome: an increase in cigarette sales for the major tobacco companies. The reason for this unexpected outcome can be traced to the principles of game theory particularly the prisoner’s dilemma paradox (悖论). Just as in the prisoner’s dilemma, where cooperation leads to the best outcome for both parties, the tobacco companies would benefit collectively if none of them advertised. This action would create fairness in competition, ensuring that no individual company gains an edge by advertising. However, the dilemma arises when considering the potential actions of competitors. If one tobacco company decides to ignore the ban and advertise its products, it stands to gain a significant market share and increased sales compared to its non-advertising competitors. This creates a situation where each company faces the urge to advertise, fearing that their competitors may do the same and leave them at a disadvantage. In the end, most tobacco companies decided to play it safe and invested in advertising, despite the ban, to avoid being left behind in the competitive landscape. This strategic decision reflects the uncertainty and strategic considerations that shape business decisions, even in the face of regulations aimed at public health goals. This application of game theory provides valuable insight into the complexities of influencing human behavior through policy interventions. While well-intended efforts such as advertising bans may seem straightforward in theory, the realities of strategic decision-making and competitive dynamics often lead to unforeseen outcomes. As such, understanding the complexities of game theory can provide valuable insight for policymakers seeking to design more effective interventions and address complex societal challenges. 32. What is a direct result of the ban in the 1970s? A. Cut in tax income. B. Reduction in health risks. C. Rise in tobacco sales. D. Cooperation of companies. 33. How can all competitors benefit in the prisoner’s dilemma? A. They fully trust each other and follow the regulations. B. They act independently and pursue their own interests. C. They increase their market share at the expense of others. D. They ignore competition and focus on their own strategies. 34. Why do most tobacco companies finally choose to advertise? A. To avoid intense competition. B. To gain a competitive advantage. C. To shape better business images. D. To achieve public health goals. 35. What can be a suitable title for the passage? A. A Good Intention Fails. B. A Cigarette Ban Ends in Smoke. C. A Ban Boosts Public Health. D. A Dilemma Concems Cigarette Compames. 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。 If you want to develop maximum credibility (可信性), is it better to be a hedgehog (刺猬) or a fox?

As a girl of shy and reserved nature, I had to take a fresh start to fit into the sophisticated city life. One sunny day, my school announced an exciting event, a talent show for the local food bank. Students were encouraged to showcase their unique talents in front of the public in the city hall on National Day. A buzz of excitement fed the school as everyone began preparing for the big day. Deep down, I felt a spark of curiosity and a desire to participate. However, my self-doubt held me back, “I don’t have any special skills to share.” Days turned into weeks, and the talent show drew closer. I couldn’t shake the upsetting feeling until one day, Emma, one of the most popular girls in my class, came to me while I was helping in the grocery store after class. “How about singing together in the talent show?” She grinned, “I heard you singing a tune, along the way back home. I can’t help following you here.” Gosh, I couldn’t believe my ears. Emma, with personality and popularity, acknowledged my little talent. Since Emma had the world’s prettiest voice, I felt like being favoured by fortune. “You two? The talent show for the food bank?” My mum bent towards us and her face lit up. “A big occasion.” Then a light bulb seemed to go in her head. “Why not practise right now upstairs? I bet you’ll be a perfect match.” Winking at us, she seemed to know we were thinking alike. Emma and I embarked on rehearsing almost every single day after school. We brainstormed, exchanged ideas and rehearsed the scene. As the days rolled by, I was feeling pretty good about our act. But the day before the performance, Emma called that she had an acute stomachache and was not in any shape to perform. 注意： 1.所续写短文的词数应为150左右； 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Paragraph 1: I was completely knocked out by the news. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: Finally came the big moment ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$null
