B My elder brother Steve, in the absence of my father who died when I was six, gave me important lessons in values that helped me grow into an adult. Steve taught me to face the results of my behavior. Once when I returned in tears from a Saturday baseball game, it was Steve who took the time to ask me what happened. When I explained that my baseball had soared through Mrs. Holt’s basement window, breaking the glass with a crash, Steve encouraged me to confess (认罪) to her. After all, I should have been playing in the park down Fifth Street and not in the path between buildings. Although my knees shook as I explained to Mrs. Holt, I offered to pay for the window from my pocket money if she would return my ball. I also learned from Steve that personal property (财产) is a sacred (神圣的) thing. After I found a shiny silver pen in my fifth-grade classroom, I wanted to keep it, but Steve explained that it might be important to someone else although it had little value. He reminded me of how much I’d hate to lose to someone else the small dog my father made with a piece of cheap wood. I returned the pen to my teacher, Mrs. Davids, and still remembered the smell of her perfume (香水) as she patted me on my shoulder. Yet of all the instructions Steve gave me, his respect for life is the most unforgettable in my mind. When I was twelve I killed an old brown sparrow (麻雀) in the yard with a BB gun. Excited, I screamed to Steve to come from the house to take a look. I shall never forget the way he stood for a long moment and stared at the bird on the ground. Then in a dead, quiet voice, he asked, “Did it hurt you first, Mark?” I didn’t know what to answer. He continued with his eyes firm, “The only time you should even think of hurting a living thing is if it hurts you first. And then you think a long, long time.” I really felt terrible then, but that moment stands out as the most important lesson my brother taught me. 6. What does the passage mainly talk about? A. The relationship between Mark and Steve. B. The important lesson Mark learned in school. C. Steve’s important role in Mark’s growing process. D. Mark and Steve’s respect for living things. 7. It can be inferred from the passage that when Mark confessed to Mrs. Holt, ________. A. he felt surprised B. he was light-hearted C. he felt frightened D. he cried before her 8. From the third paragraph, we can know that Mark ________. A. had a shiny silver pen B. respected his teacher C. hated his father very much D. once owned a small wooden dog 9. According to the writer, which was the most important lesson Steve taught him? A. Respect for living things. B. Responsibility for one’s actions. C. The value of the honesty. D. Care for the property of others. 10. Which of the following is true according to the passage? A. Mark was still a boy when he wrote this passage. B. Mark lost the small dog his father gave him. C. When a living thing hurts you, you should kill it. D. Even if a living thing hurts you you should not kill it without hesitation (犹豫). C On holiday, many will find themselves in places where they do not speak the language. Once upon a time, they might have carried a phrasebook. But now, many simple, free apps are good news for those travelers. With these apps’ conversation mode, people talk into a phone and a spoken translation is heard moments later. Maybe the best-known app is Google Translate, though small mistakes can happen due to its word-for-word translation. Surprisingly, the best tool may not be a translation app at all. Though not marketed for that, ChatGPT, a generative AI system, can write messages in different languages, producing natural output like a native speaker. As AI translation becomes an even more popular labour-saving tool, society may divide into two groups. There will be those who want to fully experience other cultures. This group will still take on language study, often aided by technology. Others will look at learning a new language with a different attitude: “Good for you, if that’s your thing, but a bit painful for my taste.” After all, most people do not move abroad or often have contact with a foreign culture. On their holiday, they just want a beer and spaghetti (意大利面). As a result, some experts are concerned that AI is leading to a decreasing interest in language learning. Writer Douglas Hofstadter has argued that something meaningful will disappear when people communicate through machines. He describes giving a disconnected, difficult speech in Chinese, which required a lot of work but offered a sense of achievement at the end. Who would boast of (吹嘘) taking a helicopter to the top of Mount Everest (珠穆朗玛峰)? While AI translation seems practical, we must recognize the social nature of language. When trying to ask directions in broken Japanese or make a joke in awkward German, you are making direct contact with someone. The best relationships do not require a third party. 11. Which of the following best describes translation apps? A. Free but hard to use. B. Popular but expensive. C. Quick but with mistakes. D. Easy to use but slow. 12. What does the underlined word “that” in paragraph 2 refer to? A. Conversation. B. Language learning. C. Message writing. D. Translation. 13. Why does the writer mention “beer and spaghetti” in paragraph 3? A. To present an opinion. B. To support a fact. C. To make an excuse. D. To give a reason. 14. What can be inferred from Douglas Hofstadter’s opinion? A. Reaching Mount Everest is quite easy. B. Learning a foreign language is less attractive. C. Talking without the help of technology is worthwhile. D. Making a speech in another language is too challenging. 15. What is the social nature of language? A. Direct connection with people. B. Broken but funny translation. C. Awkward relations between people. D. Communication with the third party. 第二节(共5小题;每小题2分，满分10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。 We all want to keep fit and stay healthy, but a few things may prevent it: laziness, a busy schedule, and maybe even a limited spend. ___16___.
