Then, at 20, I was introduced to photographer David Liittschwager, who hired me to help him with a magazine assignment on marine life. David’s assignment was to document the amazing biodiversity found in the ocean. My role was to collect specimens for him to photograph. Every night, I would cast a floating lamp. Like moths drawn to a flame, mysterious creatures would emerge from the depths in search of this light. I’d then set up aquariums to house them as they waited for David to take their shot. Those evenings made me feel as if I were on another planet. I had never imagined such strange life-forms could exist in our oceans. But I didn’t grasp the true magic of what was in front of me until I saw the photographs David took. The biggest surprise was his image of a baby flounder. I caught this fish by accident. Only later did I notice its two tiny eyeballs staring back at me. But David’s photograph of this flounder revealed a universe of detail that even my eager eyes had missed. His macro lens magnified its ribs (肋骨). The lightning-fast exposure froze its motion. A precisely aimed light released the rainbow hidden in its skin. And the black background removed all distractions to focus our attention on the quiet beauty at hand. Years after that project, I was snorkeling (潜泳) on a shallow reef. Out of the darkness, another baby flounder emerged and settled on my mask. This time I knew what to look for. Before working for David, I had assumed the goal of photography was simply to reproduce an observation so that others could share the same experience. It had never occurred to me that photography could expand our visual perception and therefore teach us to look at the world from new perspectives. 24. What was the author’s role in the magazine assignment? A. Photographing the marine life. B. Documenting the amazing biodiversity. C. Building an aquarium for marine research. D. Attracting and gathering species of marine life. 25. What surprised the author about the image of a baby flounder? A. The advanced techniques of lighting. B. The strange appearance of the small fish. C. The accurate display of its comprehensive details. D. The unexpected effect of background processing. 26. What can we infer about the author from the text? A. He launched a local snorkeling project. B. He achieved his dream by taking up photography. C. The project motivated him to start ocean research. D. The experience changed his view of photography. 27. What is the true magic of photography? A. To record an observation result. B. To help people see the world anew. C. To share one’s specific experience. D. To reveal visible wonders of the world. 【答案】24. D 25. C 26. D 27. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章主要介绍了作者在协助摄影师David Liittschwager拍摄海洋生物的过程中，改变了对摄影的看法，认识到摄影不仅是记录，还能拓展视觉感知。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段的“My role was to collect specimens for him to photograph. Every night, I would cast a floating lamp. Like moths drawn to a flame, mysterious creatures would emerge from the depths in search of this light. I’d then set up aquariums to house them as they waited for David to take their shot.(我的职责是收集标本供他拍照。每天晚上，我都会投一盏浮灯。就像飞蛾被火焰吸引一样，神秘的生物会从深处出现，寻找这种光。然后，我为它们搭建了水族馆，让它们在等待大卫拍摄时栖息)”可知，作者的任务是吸引和收集海洋生物的物种，供David的拍照。故选D。 【25题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段的“But David’s photograph of this flounder revealed a universe of detail that even my eager eyes had missed. His macro lens magnified its ribs (肋骨). The lightning-fast exposure froze its motion. A precisely aimed light released the rainbow hidden in its skin. And the black background removed all distractions to focus our attention on the quiet beauty at hand.(但大卫的这张比目鱼照片揭示了一个细节的宇宙，即使是我热切的眼睛也错过了。他的微距镜头放大了它的肋骨。闪电般的曝光冻结了它的运动。一束精确瞄准的光线释放出隐藏在它皮肤里的彩虹。黑色背景消除了所有干扰，使我们的注意力集中在眼前的宁静美景上)”可知，大卫的照片展示了比目鱼的许多细节，这些细节是作者之前没有注意到的。由此可知，作者对小比目鱼的照片感到惊讶是因为它展示了全面的细节。故选C。 【26题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段的“Before working for David, I had assumed the goal of photography was simply to reproduce an observation so that others could share the same experience. It had never occurred to me that photography could expand our visual perception and therefore teach us to look at the world from new perspectives.(在为大卫工作之前，我曾认为摄影的目标只是再现观察结果，以便其他人可以分享同样的经历。我从未想过摄影可以扩展我们的视觉感知，从而教会我们从新的角度看待世界)”可知，在为大卫工作之前，作者认为摄影的目标仅仅是再现观察，以便其他人分享相同的体验。但这段经历让他意识到摄影可以扩展我们的视觉感知，教我们从新的视角看待世界。由此推可知，这次经历改变了作者对摄影的看法。故选D。 【27题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“It had never occurred to me that photography could expand our visual perception and therefore teach us to look at the world from new perspectives.(我从未想过摄影可以扩展我们的视觉感知，从而教会我们从新的角度看待世界)”可推知，摄影的真正魔力在于帮助人们以新的视角看待世界。故选B。 C It would be difficult to overemphasize the importance of cooperation, not only because it was fundamental to the success of our species through evolution, but because it is fundamental to the success of almost all modern social interactions and relationships. Let’s start by defining what cooperation actually means. Although definitions vary, cooperation has been defined as working or acting together for mutual benefit. It requires two or more people to act in the best interest of their collective rather than acting for selfish benefit. During task-related communication, cooperation can be expressed in terms of proposing a fair distribution of resources or equal outcomes. If we consider the dangerous environments that our ancestors grew up in, where around every corner was a potential predator (捕食者), it’s no surprise that cooperation was encouraged. Having strong social relationships provided a helping hand when sick or injured, and helped gather food as well as warnings about what to avoid eating. As a result, modern humans are hard-wired to find cooperation rewarding. Researchers have demonstrated that cooperating with others is associated with increased reward-related activity in the brain compared to engaging in non-cooperative exchanges, even when the physical rewards obtained from such exchange remain the same. Evidently, it is in our nature to want to cooperate, and this is why our relationships thrive when we do. When we consider the needs of others and put the goals of the collective above the desire for selfish gain during decision making, we lay the groundwork for a strong trusting relationship to be built. But it’s not just in our personal lives that cooperation allows us to thrive, the same goes for our professional lives. In business, when we work collaboratively with others, be it at an individual level (between employees) or an industry level (between organizations), the shared resources and shared ideas enable innovation to flourish. It is exactly this cooperative approach of “two heads are better than one” that is at the heart of project success throughout academia and the private sector. 28. Which statement best defines cooperation according to paragraph 2? A. Acting together for common interests. B. Working individually for personal gains. C. Building strong relationships within a team. D. Associating with each other in an equal way. 29. Why does the author mention dangerous environments in human history? A. To show the cooperative ability of our ancestors. B. To explain the link between cooperation and reward. C. To highlight the role of cooperation in human survival. D. To illustrate the research of reward-related brain activity. 30. How does cooperation contribute to success in professional settings? A. It promotes innovations by sharing ideas and resources. B. It creates profit opportunities for organizations. C. It ensures fair competition among employees. D. It enables individuals to satisfy their desire. 31. What is the main idea of the passage? A. Cooperation leads to the boost of business. B. Cooperation strengthens personal relationships. C. Cooperation is a key driver of human development. D. Cooperation is a vital factor for professional success. 【答案】28. A 29. C 30. A 31. C 【解析】 【导语】本文为一篇说明文。文章主要探讨了合作的重要性，不仅在人类进化过程中对成功至关重要，也在现代社会互动和关系中起着重要作用。 【28题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“Although definitions vary, cooperation has been defined as working or acting together for mutual benefit. It requires two or more people to act in the best interest of their collective rather than acting for selfish benefit.(尽管对合作的定义各不相同，但合作一直被定义为为共同利益而共同工作或行动。它要求两个或两个以上的人以他们集体的最佳利益行事，而不是为自己的利益行事。)”可知，关于合作的最好定义是为共同利益而共同行动。故选A。 【29题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“If we consider the dangerous environments that our ancestors grew up in, where around every corner was a potential predator (捕食者), it’s no surprise that cooperation was encouraged. Having strong social relationships provided a helping hand when sick or injured, and helped gather food as well as warnings about what to avoid eating.(如果我们考虑到我们祖先成长的危险环境，那里的每个角落都有潜在的捕食者，那么鼓励合作就不足为奇了。拥有强大的社会关系可以在生病或受伤时伸出援助之手，帮助收集食物以及警告不要吃什么。)”可知，作者提到人类历史上的危险环境是为了突出合作在人类生存中的作用。故选C。 【30题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“In business, when we work collaboratively with others, be it at an individual level (between employees) or an industry level (between organizations), the shared resources and shared ideas enable innovation to flourish.(在商业中，当我们与他人合作时，无论是在个人层面（员工之间）还是在行业层面（组织之间），共享的资源和共享的想法使创新得以蓬勃发展。)”可知，在专业环境中合作通过分享想法和资源来促进创新以达到成功。故选A。 【31题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“It would be difficult to overemphasize the importance of cooperation, not only because it was fundamental to the success of our species through evolution, but because it is fundamental to the success of almost all modern social interactions and relationships.(合作的重要性怎么强调都不为过，不仅因为它是人类在进化过程中取得成功的基础，而且因为它是几乎所有现代社会互动和关系成功的基础。)”和最后一段最后一句“It is exactly this cooperative approach of “two heads are better than one” that is at the heart of project success throughout academia and the private sector.(正是这种“三个臭皮匠胜过一个诸葛亮”的合作方式，是整个学术界和私营部门项目成功的核心。)”可知，文章主要是讲合作是人类发展的重要动力。故选C。 D The pollutants jamming our skies aren’t just a health risk; they also cause ugly stains on buildings and other structures. To combat this, chemists have been working for years on a special type of paint that not only can clean itself but also may remove pollutants from the air. In a recent study, researchers have developed a new paint that works using UV rays from ordinary sunlight, making its self-cleaning properties easier to activate. They’ve also shown they can effectively produce this paint from recycled materials. “We do this by using waste material from industry and also using fallen leaves, which are organic waste.” says Qaisar Maqbool, a chemist at the Vienna University of Technology. In the working process, UV light stimulates the electrons in the titanium oxide nanoparticles (二氧化钛纳米颗粒), which interact with airborne water molecules to produce highly reactive hydroxyl radicals (烃基自由基). These unstable chemicals attack pollutants that come in contact with the paint, converting them into less harmful substances such as carbon dioxide and water. The research team added some necessary elements to the nanoparticles’ structure, which reduced the amount of energy needed to spark the reaction and let it work via ordinary sunlight. In laboratory tests, these modified nanoparticles removed up to 96 percent of tested pollutants added to the paint’s surface. “It’s better to be able to use solar light to activate, as the paint can work passively, by itself,” says Antonio Nieto-Márquez Ballesteros, a chemist at the Technical University of Madrid. But a real-world setting would probably reduce its effectiveness, he adds. “Under laboratory conditions, it’ s a very small scale, and everything is very well controlled, such as temperature, humidity or the concentration of pollutants, but you will never get those results at a real scale.” The study authors stress that this work is just an initial step in their research. “I think it’s a very fundamental study,” says co-author Günther Rupprechter. “We don’t claim that we can remove all contamination from air,” he says, “but overall, it looks promising.” 32. What is the purpose of working on the new paint? A. To clean up pollutants from the air. B. To reuse waste materials from industry. C. To reduce the health risk from sunlight. D. To increase the amount of nanoparticles. 33. What is essential in the working process of the paint? A. Recycled water. B. UV light. C. Stable chemicals. D. Carbon dioxide. 34. What do the researchers think of the paint? A. It holds an uncertain marketing prospect. B. Its effectiveness may fall short in real world. C. Its working conditions remain to be confirmed. D. It deserves immediate application on a large scale. 35. Which of the following is the best title for the text? A. This Paint Can Clean Both Itself and the Air B. New Paint Is Being Applied to Real-world Setting C. Recycled Materials Contribute to a Promising Paint D. Laboratory Research Unveils Ground-breaking Innovation 【答案】32. A 33. B 34. B 35. A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。为了去除空气中的污染物，化学家们多年来一直在研究一种特殊的油漆，这种油漆不仅可以自我清洁，还可以去除空气中的污染物。文章对其进行了详细介绍。 【32题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段最后一句“To combat this, chemists have been working for years on a special type of paint that not only can clean itself but also may remove pollutants from the air.(为了解决这个问题，化学家们多年来一直在研究一种特殊的油漆，这种油漆不仅可以自我清洁，还可以去除空气中的污染物。)”可知，研究这种新油漆的目的是清除空气中的污染物。故选A。 【33题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段第一句“In the working process, UV light stimulates the electrons in the titanium oxide nanoparticles (二氧化钛纳米颗粒), which interact with airborne water molecules to produce highly reactive hydroxyl radicals (烃基自由基).(在工作过程中，紫外线刺激氧化钛纳米粒子中的电子，这些电子与空气中的水分子相互作用，产生高活性的羟基自由基。)”和第二段“These unstable chemicals attack pollutants that come in contact with the paint, converting them into less harmful substances such as carbon dioxide and water.(这些不稳定的化学物质会攻击与油漆接触的污染物，将其转化为二氧化碳和水等危害较小的物质。)”可知，在油漆的工作过程中紫外线是必不可少的。故选B。 【34题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段第二句“But a real-world setting would probably reduce its effectiveness, he adds.(但他补充说，现实环境可能会降低其有效性。)”可知，研究人员认为现实环境可能会降低这种油漆的有效性。故选B。 【35题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段最后一句“To combat this, chemists have been working for years on a special type of paint that not only can clean itself but also may remove pollutants from the air.(为了解决这个问题，化学家们多年来一直在研究一种特殊的油漆，这种油漆不仅可以自我清洁，还可以去除空气中的污染物。)”可知，文章主要是介绍一种既可以自我清洁又可以去除空气中的污染物的新油漆。故选A。 第二节 （共5小题；每小题2. 5分，满分12. 5分） 根据短文内容，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 can you make sure to have great conversations, especially with people you don’t know well? How do you keep a conversation flowing, especially with someone you’ve just met? Your first and most important step is to make that person feel listened to. ____36____ The No.1 way to make someone feel listened to is to actually listen to them. That may sound stupidly obvious, but it can be hard to actually do. When someone is talking to you about something, especially if what they’re saying doesn’t directly relate to your interests, your mind may want to busy itself with other things. ____37____ The key to better engagement is to push distractions aside and concentrate. The more you can actually focus on what the person is saying, the better you’ ll be able to engage with them. Beyond that, using body language can be very useful. ____38____ Smile at the other person and nod to let them know you understand the points they’re making. You can take it a step further and mirror them, reflecting back their body positioning and posture. ____39____ If focusing on body language distracts you from listening, then it isn’t worth it, in my opinion. In that case, I believe it’s better to just focus on what they’re saying. Chances are, your body language will naturally reflect you really are paying attention. ____40____ It’s a bit like playing tennis, where the objective is to keep the volley going as long as possible. If you always respond to what the other person says with just a word or two, you’ re putting too much pressure on them to keep the conversation going. Conversely, if you take a conversational opening and run with it, launching into a detailed explanation of how your company works or a lengthy anecdote, you’re likely to lose their interest. You effectively shut the other person out of the conversation. A. That’s something most of us desire. B. However, I’ll add a word of warning. C. Make eye contact much but not all of the time. D. It is a great way to learn how to keep the volley going. E Being good at starting conversations is an essential skill. F. You might start thinking about whether you’re wasting time. G. Then, pay attention to the rhythm and flow of the conversation. 【答案】36. A 37. F 38. C 39. B 40. G 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了如何让交谈的对方感觉自己正在被倾听的方法。 【36题详解】 根据前文“How can you make sure to have great conversations, especially with people you don’t know well? How do you keep a conversation flowing, especially with someone you’ve just met? Your first and most important step is to make that person feel listened to.(你怎样才能确保交谈愉快，尤其是和你不太了解的人？如何让谈话保持流畅，尤其是和刚认识的人？你的第一步也是最重要的一步是让那个人觉得你在倾听。)”和后文“The No.1 way to make someone feel listened to is to actually listen to them.(让别人感到被倾听的首要方法是真正倾听他们。)”可知，此处是讲大部分人都希望能做到让交谈的对方感到自己被倾听，所以选项A“这是我们大多数人都渴望的。”切合文意。故选A。 【37题详解】 根据前文“When someone is talking to you about something, especially if what they’re saying doesn’t directly relate to your interests, your mind may want to busy itself with other things.(当有人和你谈论某事时，特别是如果他们所说的与你的兴趣没有直接关系，你的大脑可能会想要忙于其他事情。)”可知，此处是讲当对方说的内容与你的兴趣没有直接关系时，你可能会觉得是在浪费时间，所以选项F“你可能会开始思考你是否在浪费时间。”切合文意。故选F。 【38题详解】 根据前文“Beyond that, using body language can be very useful.(除此之外，使用肢体语言也非常有用。)”和后文“Smile at the other person and nod to let them know you understand the points they’re making.(对对方微笑并点头，让他们知道你理解他们的观点。)”可知，此处是在介绍一些有用的肢体语言，所以选项C“多做眼神交流，但不要一直看对方的眼睛。”切合文意。故选C。 【39题详解】 根据前文“You can take it a step further and mirror them, reflecting back their body positioning and posture.(你可以更进一步，镜像他们，反映出他们的身体位置和姿势。)”和后文“If focusing on body language distracts you from listening, then it isn’t worth it, in my opinion.(在我看来，如果专注于肢体语言会分散你倾听的注意力，那就不值得了。)”可知，此处是讲虽然肢体语言非常重要，但仍然要注意专注于肢体语言是否会分散你倾听的注意力，所以选项B“然而，我要加一句警告。”切合文意。故选B。 【40题详解】 根据后文“It’s a bit like playing tennis, where the objective is to keep the volley going as long as possible.(这有点像打网球，目标是让截击尽可能长。)”和“If you always respond to what the other person says with just a word or two, you’ re putting too much pressure on them to keep the conversation going.(如果你总是用一两句话来回应对方的话，你就会给他们施加太大的压力，让谈话无法继续下去。)”可知，此处是讲注意对话的节奏和流畅性，所以选项G“然后，注意对话的节奏和流畅性。”切合文意。故选G。 第三部分：语言运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节：完形填空（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分）阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 The first class I went to in college was philosophy, and it changed my life.

This all changed last year when the company I worked for announced that they were going to arrange a swimrun, a race where you partially swim and partially run to finish the race. Of course, it was a voluntary activity and I was not going to participate. However, as the weeks progressed, I started thinking to myself. “What would it feel like to break through my comfort zone and finally face my insecurity?” To help the swimrun participants prepare for the race, the company arranged an opportunity to learn how to swim freestyle with a swim instructor. I ultimately decided to at least participate in the first swimming lesson. I was mentally prepared to be the worst student during the lesson. However, as it turned out, I had plenty of co-workers that were equally bad at swimming. After a few swimming lessons, I even got compliments for how quickly I managed to improve. Not only had I shattered my old belief about my disability in water, but something else had started to stir. I had gotten a taste for swimming and was curious to see where it could lead me. “How would it feel like to be completely comfortable in the water?” I wondered. I started going to the public bathhouse to practice the few tips I had gotten from the swimming instructor. I’d watch YouTube videos and try and mimic the movements by myself in the water to the best of my abilities. Without a doubt - in the beginning, I looked like a drowning monkey. I would swim; I would sink, coughing up water, and repeat it all over again. I’d get yelled at for swimming too slow at the freestyle range. However, I focused on the process and the soon-to-be new skillset that I did not get discouraged by the slow progress nor the occasional scolding. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Paragraph 1: The thoughts of gliding through water effortlessly was what kept me going. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: Regarding the swimrun, I eventually decided to participate. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 The thought of gliding through water effortlessly was what kept me going. At a certain point, I hit a plateau, So, I decided to contact my swimming instructor for more swimming lessons. Under his guidance, I started to practice more by myself. Some days, I would come back seriously wondering if my body constitution was meant for swimming at all. On other days, I would feel fantastic while completing my laps. Still, there was one single thing that stood out during my practice sessions: while repeating thousands and thousands of crawling strokes, I slowly but surely started to enjoy the process of swimming thoroughly. Regarding the swimrun, I eventually decided to participate. For me, this challenge was pushing me to my limits, as I had been utterly scared to confront this weakness of mine. The race began, and soon I was completely breathless from the physical exertion. However, I solely focused on all the movements I had been practicing repetitively throughout the summer. Before I knew it, I had finished. The swimrun had been my end goal but I already knew by then that I was going to continue swimming. I wished my childhood self could meet my present-day self to see that I was not naturally bad at swimming. It was possible to change and surpass the boundaries of my comfort zone. 【解析】 【导语】本文以作者学习游泳为线索展开，讲述了不喜欢游泳的作者在公司宣布安排一项游泳比赛时，作者开始打算突破舒适区，作者打算参加游泳课开始学习游泳，在学习的过程中作者打破了自己水中无能的观念，还逐渐对游泳产生了兴趣，进而开始自己学习一些游泳的技巧，尽管偶尔因为太慢而被骂，作者仍旧专注于过程以及学到新技能的故事。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“在水中毫不费力地滑行的想法是我前进的动力。”可知，第一段可描写作者在学习游泳时是如何让自己不断前进的，以及最终作者开始享受游泳的过程。 ②由第二段首句内容“关于游泳比赛，我最终决定参加。”可知，第二段可描写作者在接下来的比赛中的表现以及比赛结束后自己的感悟。 2.续写线索：遇到麻烦——寻求帮助——不断进步——决定参加比赛——努力完成比赛——感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①回来：come back/return/get back ②面对：confront/be faced with/face ③超越：surpass/exceed/tower over/go beyond 情绪类 ①害怕：scared/frightened 【点睛】[高分句型1] On other days, I would feel fantastic while completing my laps.（运用了状语从句中的省略结构） [高分句型2] However, I solely focused on all the movements I had been practicing repetitively throughout the summer. （运用了省略关系代词的定语从句修饰先行词movements） [高分句型3] It was possible to change and surpass the boundaries of my comfort zone.（运用了“it作形式主语，动词不定式短语作真正主语”结构） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 2024年11月绍兴市高考科目诊断性考试 英 语 第Ⅰ卷 本试卷共12页，满分150分。考试用时120分钟。 注意事项： 1. 答卷前，考生务必用黑色字迹钢笔或签字笔将自己的姓名、考生号、考场号和座位号填写在答题卡上。将条形码横贴在答题卡右上角“条形粘贴处”。 2. 作答选择题时，选出每小题答案后，用2B铅笔把答题卡上对应题目选项的答案信息点涂黑；如需改动，用像皮擦干净后，再选涂其他答案，答案不能答在试卷上。 3. 非选择题必须用黑色字迹钢笔或签字笔作答，答案必须写在答题卡各题目指定区域内相应位置上：如需改动，先划掉原来的答案，然后再写上新的答案；不准使用铅笔和涂改液。不按以上要求作答的答案无效。 4. 考生必须保持答题卡的整洁。 第一部分：听力 （共两节，满分30分） 做题时，先将答案标在试卷上。录音内容结束后，你将有两分钟的时间将试卷上的答案转涂到答题卡上。 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】 When did the man call Susan?

B As a kid, I dreamed of becoming a marine biologist and I lived out this fantasy by setting up aquariums at home. Then, at 20, I was introduced to photographer David Liittschwager, who hired me to help him with a magazine assignment on marine life. David’s assignment was to document the amazing biodiversity found in the ocean. My role was to collect specimens for him to photograph. Every night, I would cast a floating lamp. Like moths drawn to a flame, mysterious creatures would emerge from the depths in search of this light. I’d then set up aquariums to house them as they waited for David to take their shot. Those evenings made me feel as if I were on another planet. I had never imagined such strange life-forms could exist in our oceans. But I didn’t grasp the true magic of what was in front of me until I saw the photographs David took. The biggest surprise was his image of a baby flounder. I caught this fish by accident. Only later did I notice its two tiny eyeballs staring back at me. But David’s photograph of this flounder revealed a universe of detail that even my eager eyes had missed. His macro lens magnified its ribs (肋骨). The lightning-fast exposure froze its motion. A precisely aimed light released the rainbow hidden in its skin. And the black background removed all distractions to focus our attention on the quiet beauty at hand. Years after that project, I was snorkeling (潜泳) on a shallow reef. Out of the darkness, another baby flounder emerged and settled on my mask. This time I knew what to look for. Before working for David, I had assumed the goal of photography was simply to reproduce an observation so that others could share the same experience. It had never occurred to me that photography could expand our visual perception and therefore teach us to look at the world from new perspectives. 24. What was the author’s role in the magazine assignment? A. Photographing the marine life. B. Documenting the amazing biodiversity. C. Building an aquarium for marine research. D. Attracting and gathering species of marine life. 25. What surprised the author about the image of a baby flounder? A. The advanced techniques of lighting. B. The strange appearance of the small fish.

He launched a local snorkeling project. B. He achieved his dream by taking up photography. C. The project motivated him to start ocean research. D. The experience changed his view of photography. 27. What is the true magic of photography? A. To record an observation result. B To help people see the world anew. C. To share one’s specific experience. D. To reveal visible wonders of the world. C It would be difficult to overemphasize the importance of cooperation, not only because it was fundamental to the success of our species through evolution, but because it is fundamental to the success of almost all modern social interactions and relationships. Let’s start by defining what cooperation actually means. Although definitions vary, cooperation has been defined as working or acting together for mutual benefit. It requires two or more people to act in the best interest of their collective rather than acting for selfish benefit. During task-related communication, cooperation can be expressed in terms of proposing a fair distribution of resources or equal outcomes. If we consider the dangerous environments that our ancestors grew up in, where around every corner was a potential predator (捕食者), it’s no surprise that cooperation was encouraged. Having strong social relationships provided a helping hand when sick or injured, and helped gather food as well as warnings about what to avoid eating. As a result, modern humans are hard-wired to find cooperation rewarding. Researchers have demonstrated that cooperating with others is associated with increased reward-related activity in the brain compared to engaging in non-cooperative exchanges, even when the physical rewards obtained from such exchange remain the same. Evidently, it is in our nature to want to cooperate, and this is why our relationships thrive when we do. When we consider the needs of others and put the goals of the collective above the desire for selfish gain during decision making, we lay the groundwork for a strong trusting relationship to be built. But it’s not just in our personal lives that cooperation allows us to thrive, the same goes for our professional lives. In business, when we work collaboratively with others, be it at an individual level (between employees) or an industry level (between organizations), the shared resources and shared ideas enable innovation to flourish. It is exactly this cooperative approach of “two heads are better than one” that is at the heart of project success throughout academia and the private sector. 28. Which statement best defines cooperation according to paragraph 2? A. Acting together for common interests. B. Working individually for personal gains. C. Building strong relationships within a team. D. Associating with each other in an equal way. 29. Why does the author mention dangerous environments in human history? A. To show the cooperative ability of our ancestors. B. To explain the link between cooperation and reward. C. To highlight the role of cooperation in human survival. D. To illustrate the research of reward-related brain activity. 30. How does cooperation contribute to success in professional settings? A. It promotes innovations by sharing ideas and resources. B. It creates profit opportunities for organizations. C. It ensures fair competition among employees. D. It enables individuals to satisfy their desire. 31. What is the main idea of the passage? A. Cooperation leads to the boost of business. B. Cooperation strengthens personal relationships. C. Cooperation is a key driver of human development. D. Cooperation is a vital factor for professional success. D The pollutants jamming our skies aren’t just a health risk; they also cause ugly stains on buildings and other structures. To combat this, chemists have been working for years on a special type of paint that not only can clean itself but also may remove pollutants from the air. In a recent study, researchers have developed a new paint that works using UV rays from ordinary sunlight, making its self-cleaning properties easier to activate. They’ve also shown they can effectively produce this paint from recycled materials. “We do this by using waste material from industry and also using fallen leaves, which are organic waste.” says Qaisar Maqbool, a chemist at the Vienna University of Technology. In the working process, UV light stimulates the electrons in the titanium oxide nanoparticles (二氧化钛纳米颗粒), which interact with airborne water molecules to produce highly reactive hydroxyl radicals (烃基自由基). These unstable chemicals attack pollutants that come in contact with the paint, converting them into less harmful substances such as carbon dioxide and water. The research team added some necessary elements to the nanoparticles’ structure, which reduced the amount of energy needed to spark the reaction and let it work via ordinary sunlight. In laboratory tests, these modified nanoparticles removed up to 96 percent of tested pollutants added to the paint’s surface. “It’s better to be able to use solar light to activate, as the paint can work passively, by itself,” says Antonio Nieto-Márquez Ballesteros, a chemist at the Technical University of Madrid. But a real-world setting would probably reduce its effectiveness, he adds. “Under laboratory conditions, it’ s a very small scale, and everything is very well controlled, such as temperature, humidity or the concentration of pollutants, but you will never get those results at a real scale.” The study authors stress that this work is just an initial step in their research. “I think it’s a very fundamental study,” says co-author Günther Rupprechter. “We don’t claim that we can remove all contamination from air,” he says, “but overall, it looks promising.” 32. What is the purpose of working on the new paint? A. To clean up pollutants from the air. B. To reuse waste materials from industry. C. To reduce the health risk from sunlight. D. To increase the amount of nanoparticles. 33. What is essential in the working process of the paint? A. Recycled water. B. UV light. C. Stable chemicals. D. Carbon dioxide. 34. What do the researchers think of the paint? A. It holds an uncertain marketing prospect. B. Its effectiveness may fall short in real world. C. Its working conditions remain to be confirmed. D. It deserves immediate application on a large scale. 35. Which of the following is the best title for the text? A. This Paint Can Clean Both Itself and the Air B. New Paint Is Being Applied to Real-world Setting C. Recycled Materials Contribute to a Promising Paint D.

How do you keep a conversation flowing, especially with someone you’ve just met? Your first and most important step is to make that person feel listened to. ____36____ The No.1 way to make someone feel listened to is to actually listen to them. That may sound stupidly obvious, but it can be hard to actually do. When someone is talking to you about something, especially if what they’re saying doesn’t directly relate to your interests, your mind may want to busy itself with other things. ____37____ The key to better engagement is to push distractions aside and concentrate. The more you can actually focus on what the person is saying, the better you’ ll be able to engage with them. Beyond that, using body language can be very useful. ____38____ Smile at the other person and nod to let them know you understand the points they’re making. You can take it a step further and mirror them, reflecting back their body positioning and posture. ____39____ If focusing on body language distracts you from listening, then it isn’t worth it, in my opinion. In that case, I believe it’s better to just focus on what they’re saying. Chances are, your body language will naturally reflect you really are paying attention. ____40____ It’s a bit like playing tennis, where the objective is to keep the volley going as long as possible. If you always respond to what the other person says with just a word or two, you’ re putting too much pressure on them to keep the conversation going. Conversely, if you take a conversational opening and run with it, launching into a detailed explanation of how your company works or a lengthy anecdote, you’re likely to lose their interest. You effectively shut the other person out of the conversation. A. That’s something most of us desire. B. However, I’ll add a word of warning. C. Make eye contact much but not all of the time. D. It is a great way to learn how to keep the volley going. E. Being good at starting conversations is an essential skill. F. You might start thinking about whether you’re wasting time. G. Then, pay attention to the rhythm and flow of the conversation. 第三部分：语言运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节：完形填空（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分）阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 The first class I went to in college was philosophy, and it changed my life.

This all changed last year when the company I worked for announced that they were going to arrange a swimrun, a race where you partially swim and partially run to finish the race. Of course, it was a voluntary activity and I was not going to participate. However, as the weeks progressed, I started thinking to myself. “What would it feel like to break through my comfort zone and finally face my insecurity?” To help the swimrun participants prepare for the race, the company arranged an opportunity to learn how to swim freestyle with a swim instructor. I ultimately decided to at least participate in the first swimming lesson. I was mentally prepared to be the worst student during the lesson. However, as it turned out, I had plenty of co-workers that were equally bad at swimming. After a few swimming lessons, I even got compliments for how quickly I managed to improve. Not only had I shattered my old belief about my disability in water, but something else had started to stir. I had gotten a taste for swimming and was curious to see where it could lead me. “How would it feel like to be completely comfortable in the water?” I wondered. I started going to the public bathhouse to practice the few tips I had gotten from the swimming instructor. I’d watch YouTube videos and try and mimic the movements by myself in the water to the best of my abilities. Without a doubt - in the beginning, I looked like a drowning monkey. I would swim; I would sink, coughing up water, and repeat it all over again. I’d get yelled at for swimming too slow at the freestyle range. However, I focused on the process and the soon-to-be new skillset that I did not get discouraged by the slow progress nor the occasional scolding. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Paragraph 1: The thoughts of gliding through water effortlessly was what kept me going. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: Regarding the swimrun, I eventually decided to participate. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$null
