My mother was often mad at me when she saw my paintings everywhere on the walls in our house. She always hoped that I could be a doctor. I guess she wanted me to follow my father's footsteps. My father, however, expected me to become a photographer. He even bought me a camera and all kinds of professional books and encouraged me to attend youth photo contests. However, as you can see, boys and girls, I finally become a teacher. Life is unpredictable. Sometimes you may not achieve the dreams you once had in your childhood. But it doesn't matter. And it doesn't mean you'll have to give up your dreams. You can always leave your dream in your heart and keep it as a lifetime hobby. As for me, I am still good at painting. It's a great way to relax in my spare time. I also love photography and travelling. All my friends like the photos I take for them. 第二部分：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 The Horizontal Oak：A Life in Nature By Polly Pullar Growing up in a remote region of the Scottish Highlands，Polly Pullar's childhood was pleasant，simple，and peaceful.But the wild beauty formed a backdrop to a series of major family tragedies.This is the story of how she rebuilt her life from the ground up，supported by the natural world around her.

A．There are probably plants named after Lady Gaga. B．Susan Richardson introduces seals' life in her book. C．Polly Pullar offers readers a tourist guide of Scottish Highlands. D．You can read Charlotte Varela's book if you want to visit nature reserves by car. 答案：A 解析：推理判断题。根据“In the Name of Plants”关键句“Botanist Sandra Knapp digs into the stories behind plant names，exploring the people who have been immortalized (使永生)，from Benjamin Franklin to Lady Gaga.”可知，这些故事与本杰明·富兰克林和Lady Gaga等著名人物有关，由此可推知，可能有以Lady Gaga命名的植物。故选A项。 23．Where can we most probably read the text?

The foremost contributor to this revolutionary movement is the use of Augmented Reality (AR) and Virtual Reality(VR) technologies.These technologies provide a gateway for the audience to step into the narrative，experiencing the storyline in a more personal and engaging way.For instance，a play based on ancient Rome could transport the audience to the Colosseum，with digital recreations of the ancient ruins，giving a first-hand experience of the historic setting. Moreover，the digital platform has opened doors for more people.Streaming performances online has made theatre accessible to individuals who were previously unable to attend due to physical or financial constraints.This digital shift has also encouraged a new generation of playwrights and actors，who now have a global platform to show their talents. On the negative side，some people argue that digital theatre dilutes the essence of traditional theatre，taking away the authenticity (真实性) and the human connection that live performances offer.Despite the criticism，many believe that digital theatre is not a replacement，but an evolution that allows for a combination of tradition and modernity. The digital theatre movement also raises questions about the preservation of cultural integrity.As digital elements become more and more popular，there is a fear that the traditional theatre may be overshadowed or forgotten.Yet，others argue that this combination of technology and art is a celebration of cultural evolution，presenting an opportunity to introduce traditional theatre to a modern audience in a refreshing way. 语篇解读　本文是一篇新闻报道。文章主要报道了近年来，技术与艺术的结合重新点燃了戏剧的新时代，迎来了一个被称为“数字剧院”的时代。 24．Paragraph 1 mainly talks about ． A．the global reach of digital theatre B．the historical background of theatre C．the traditional boundaries of theatre D．the integration of digital elements in theatre 答案：D 解析：段落大意题。根据第一段中的“The integration of digital elements within theatrical performances has not only enriched the narrative but also expanded the audience reach globally.”可知，第一段主要讲的是剧院中数字元素的整合。故选D。 25．How do AR and VR contribute to digital theatre according to the passage?

For the study，Konrath and colleagues analyzed data collected in 2008 and 2013 aiming at the same random samples of 3，376 people.Overall，they found that just 2.3 percent of those who once worked as volunteers had died，compared to 4.3 percent of non-volunteers.They further found that how much people volunteered mattered as well—only 1.8 percent of regular volunteers died，compared with 2.5 percent of occasional volunteers. But what really made a difference were people's motives for volunteering.The researchers asked people to rate how important they found various reasons for volunteering，and they found that the more important people rated reasons such as feeling pity for people in need，the more likely they were to be alive.Those who rated motives related to personal benefit as more important were more likely to have died，and just as likely to die as those who didn't volunteer at all.These reasons included volunteering because they enjoyed the social contact，to escape their own problems，or to explore their own strengths. Konrath says the current findings suggest it may be a poor idea to encourage people to volunteer because it's good for them.“Volunteering is increasingly being encouraged in schools and organizations.Some groups say that it's okay to want benefits for yourself，and encourage people to think of volunteering as an exchange for personal interests.Some groups emphasize the health benefits received through volunteering.” Konrath added，“Of course，it's reasonable for volunteers to expect benefits for themselves.But the potential health benefits of volunteering are significantly reduced if self-benefit becomes a person's main motive.” 语篇解读　本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了科学家的最新研究——做志愿者可以延长寿命。 28．What does the new study mainly find? A．How we volunteer makes sense to others. B．How often we volunteer makes a difference. C．Whether we volunteer decides our well-being. D．Why we volunteer has an impact on our health. 答案：D 解析：推理判断题。根据第一段中的“People who give...is what really counts.”可知，研究显示做志愿者可以更长寿，由此推断出新的研究主要发现为什么我们做志愿者会对我们的健康产生影响。故选D项。 29．How did the researchers do the study? A．By analyzing statistics. B．By rating volunteers' performances. C．By doing lab experiments. D．By grouping participants randomly. 答案：A 解析：推理判断题。根据第二段中的“For the study，Konrath and colleagues analyzed data collected in...only 1.8 percent of regular volunteers died，compared with 2.5 percent of occasional volunteers.”可知，研究人员是通过分析统计数据进行此项研究的。故选A项。 30．Which of the following motives will probably contribute to a longer life? A．To develop abilities. B．To make more friends. C．To help the poor people. D．To solve personal problems. 答案：C 解析：推理判断题。根据第三段中的“The researchers asked people...the more likely they were to be alive.”可知，可能有助于延长寿命的动机是同情有需要的人，C项“帮助穷人”符合这一范畴。故选C项。 31．What is the last paragraph mainly about? A．Practical suggestions on further studies. B．A further explanation of the current findings. C．Potential applications of the research method. D．A reasonable doubt about the research results. 答案：B 解析：段落大意题。根据最后一段中的“Konrath says the current findings suggest it may be a poor idea to encourage people to volunteer because it's good for them.”可知，前几段介绍了做志愿者可以使人们更长寿，最后一段又介绍了做志愿者的进一步影响，说明最后一段是对当前调查结果的进一步解释。故选B项。 D Even if you are not into artificial intelligence，it is time to pay attention to ChatGPT.ChatGPT is an AI chatbot system that OpenAI released to show off and test what a very large，powerful AI system can complete. ChatGPT is built on top of the OpenAI GPT-3 family of large language models.It lets you type natural-language clues and then offers conversational responses.It remembers the thread of your dialogue，using previous questions and answers to form its next responses.It finds relevant information in its oceans of training data，and transforms that into texts. You can ask it countless questions and often will get useful answers.For instance，you can ask it encyclopedic (百科知识的) questions like “Explain Newton's laws of motion.” You can tell it “Write me a poem.” and when it does，say “Now make it more exciting.” You can ask it to write a computer program that will show you all the different ways you can arrange the letters of a word. A few days after its launch，more than 1 million people were trying out ChatGPT.UBS analyst Lloyd Walmsley estimated in February 2023 that ChatGPT reached 100 million monthly users in January，completing in 2 months what took TikTok about 9 months and Instagram two and a half years. Many people fear that ChatGPT might help students cheat better.But as many other technology developments，it is not a simple black-and-white situation.Decades ago，students could copy encyclopedia entries and use computers and more recently，they have been able to use search engines and Wikipedia.ChatGPT offers new abilities for everything from helping with research to doing your homework for you. Dustin York，an associate professor at Maryville University，hopes educators will learn to use ChatGPT as a tool and realize it can help students think critically.“Educators thought that Google，Wikipedia，and the Internet itself would ruin education，but they did not，” York said.“What worries me most are educators who may actively try to discourage the recognition of AI like ChatGPT.It is a tool，not a villain (反派)．” 语篇解读　本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了一个名为ChatGPT的人工智能聊天机器人系统，它基于OpenAI的GPT-3大型语言模型，能够回答各种自然语言的问题，并且可用于帮助研究和解决问题。 32．What does Paragraph 2 mainly tell us about ChatGPT?

A．To present the creativity of AI. B．To show the profit from ChatGPT. C．To stress the popularity of ChatGPT. D．To compare social media apps with ChatGPT. 答案：C 解析：推理判断题。根据第四段中“UBS analyst Lloyd Walmsley estimated...Instagram two and a half years.”可知，此处强调ChatGPT在1月份的月用户数达到1亿，用了2个月就相当于TikTok花了9个月、Instagram花了两年半的时间的用户数量，故作者在第四段通过数字来说明ChatGPT的普及。故选C。 35．What is the best title of this text? A．ChatGPT—a useful AI tool B．Advanced AI—our loyal servant C．ChatGPT—advantages and disadvantages D．A smart app—think twice before trusting it 答案：B 解析：标题归纳题。根据第一段以及通读全文可知，文章介绍了一个名为ChatGPT的人工智能聊天机器人系统。故B选项(先进的人工智能——我们忠诚的仆人)最适合作文章标题。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能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 How to Welcome Change in Your Life Do you embrace (欣然接受) the road you are now on or resist and avoid change at all costs when a recent event has shaken you greatly? 36 Don't react.

Eartha's Grandma had been practising yoga for more than 50 years，who could twist，bend and curl her body with ease.She could even stand on her hands and pull her body into different poses. “Eartha，your name means ‘patience’．You need patience for yoga，” said her Grandma. Like many schools in the country，Eartha's school held an annual yoga competition.Eartha wanted to make her Grandma proud.But she could hardly stand on one leg. Grandma returned to the kitchen.Eartha kept practising hard.She stood straight，her arms at her sides.She moved her hands and knees，arching her back.All of these poses were easy，while the competition was certain to be harder.So she tried more challenging poses，lying on her stomach and pushing up on her hands.Her arms soon got tired and she collapsed to the floor.Eartha wandered into the kitchen. “Finished already？” asked Grandma. “It's hard，” Eartha said.“How did you get to be so strong？” Grandma smiled，“Patience.” The next morning，Eartha felt ached and sore all over the body.Her legs hurt so badly from the poses she practiced that she even wanted to quit.However，her Grandma's words echoed in her mind，and she held the pose for a longer time. Each day Eartha would practice a new pose，before going over the poses she had practiced the previous few days.With the date of the competition approaching，she started to feel stronger and more flexible.Her arms and legs stopped trembling. The day of the yoga competition arrived as expected.In the gym，Eartha lay on her back with her knees bent and placed her hands on the floor behind her.Everything went smoothly.Just then，so eager was she to win Grandma's pride that her poses displayed a mix of impatience，and rigidness.Eartha fell on the mat，which cost her edge over other competitors.A bell rang，ending the first half of the competition. 注意：1.续写词数应为150左右； 2．请按如下格式作答。 Thinking she ruined all because of impatience，Eartha looked at the audience for Grandma. Calm and confident，Eartha stepped on the stage for the second half of the competition. [参考范文] Thinking she ruined all because of impatience，Eartha looked at the audience for Grandma.Grandma settled at the front seat，kindly smiling and waving to her.Head hanging，Eartha went to Grandma with heavy footsteps.“I'm proud of you！” Grandma whispered softly.Astonished and unexpected，Eartha stared at Grandma with a bit doubted expression.Although relieved of frustration temporarily，she was increasingly concerned about the next half.Sensing her worries，Grandma asked if she still remembered the meaning of her name.Eartha nodded，reflecting on her hard practices. Calm and confident，Eartha stepped on the stage for the second half of the competition.Completely relaxed，Eartha devoted herself to poses，letting go of anything that might distract her.So full of patience and balance was every pose that flexibility was perfectly demonstrated，which made her stand out among other competitors.When she finished，the whole gym burst into thunderous applause.Smiling back，Eartha ultimately understood the significance of patience and calmness. 学生用书↓第66页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
