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
Louis Pasteur once said, “Chance favors the prepared mind.” That’s the truth behind the following inventions — the scientists were prepared and were able to see the magic in a mistake.
Mauve
In 1856, William Perkin was trying to come up with an artificial medicine, but his experiments produced a thick mess. But the more Perkin looked at it, the more he saw a beautiful color in his mess. Turns out he had made mauve, the first-ever synthetic dye (合成染料), which was far better than any natural dyes: the color was brighter, clearer, and didn’t fade or wash out.
Superglue
This super-sticky substance was discovered by accident — twice! Chemist Harry Coover had been attempting to make clear plastic gun sights, and in 1942 one method he tested produced an extremely quick bonding adhesive (黏合剂). It was useless for his gun sights, though, and he forgot about it until almost ten years later, when he came across it again while developing heat-resistant parts for airplanes. This time he realised its potential, and the product was put on the market.
Plastic
In 1907, shellac (虫胶) was used in electronics. It was costly, so American chemist Leo Hendrik Baekeland tried to produce an alternative. Instead, his experiments produced a material that could take high temperatures. He later developed it into plastic, and it was soon used in the production of almost everything.
Teflon
Back in the 1930s, Young DuPont chemist Roy Plunkett was working to make a new kind of CFC for refrigeration. After storing the gas in certain containers, he opened one to discover that it had changed into a white powder that was extremely sticky and had a very high melting point. Three years later, the substance, which was named Teflon, was patented.
1. Which invention came out earliest?
A. Mauve. B. Superglue. C. Plastic. D. Teflon.
2. Who recognized the value of his original invention when developing airplane parts?
A. William Perkin. B. Harry Coover. C. Leo Hendrik. D. Roy Plunkett.
3. What do the inventions have in common?
A. They were made by accident. B. They could take high temperatures.
C. They received no recognition at first. D. They could be used in medical fields.
B
Jill Wheatley was a PE teacher in Germany. On the weekends she competed in marathons around Europe.But life threw her a near deadly blow. While teaching a PE class, she was hit in the head with a baseball. The impact was so great it left her with a brain injury and 70 percent vision loss, permanently blinding her in one eye. She spent 26 months in seven different hospitals, at times wishing it would just all end.
Desperately, Wheatley set out to find comfort and healing in nature. She travelled to Nepal where a friend convinced her to run in the Annapurna 100 with him. The power from that race changed her life and eventually had her looking up at the tops of the mountains. Project Vision 8000 was born. And she began her mission to stand on top of the world’s 14 highest mountains, towering 8, 000 metres above sea level, to show herself and others the power in choice and possibility.
Colours, and touch help guide her on the mountain and she has never once felt too tired to carry on.“The only thing constant is change, so when the weather gets really bad or a storm is coming in,I know it is going to pass.”So far, she’s had few problems standing among giants, but she admits she continues to struggle with overcoming: the “mountains of her mind”. Having already stared death in the face, Wheatley has great respect for the mountains and the mission she is on. But she’s not seared. The experience almost claimed her life, but it is now the driving force and fuel behind her success.At every icy peak, she smiles and takes a quick video with a breathless “so very thankful” whispered into the thin air.
4. What happened to Wheatley according to paragraph 1?
A. She came last in a race. B. She suffered head injury.
C. She lost her sight completely. D. She was attacked in a class.
5. What drove Wheatley to launch Project Vision 8000?
A. Her exploration of nature.
B. Her friend’s timely suggestions.
C. Her strong love for sports.
D. Her participation in the Annapurna 100.
6. What can we learn about Wheatley from the last paragraph?
A. Her attitude toward adversity was reshaped.
B. She was used to poor weather conditions.
C. She ignored the mountains of her mind.
D. Her nature helped her overcome fear.
7. What could be the best title for the text?
A. Every peak is within reach.
B. Lose sight to gain vision.
C. Action speaks louder than words.
D. Nature will work its course.
C
Will artificial intelligence (AI) replace my job? This is a question that many people think about these days. At present, the application of AI robotics in professional fields, as well as ChatGPT’s abilities to write essays, solve complex problems and more, have heightened moral concerns.
Some people see AI as the ultimate cure for society’s most fundamental problems, while others fear that AI will overtake human intelligence. These two views are based on the assumption that AI is better and smarter than humanity and may ultimately replace human decision-making. But given the fact that technology is the product of human civilization, the challenge from AI is something we have created for ourselves as we keep pushing our own boundaries. In other words, AI’s progress, functions and future direction are all determined by the human brain.
Before AI becomes a threat to humanity, the international community should reach an agreement on the role it is to play. More importantly, related laws and regulations must ensure that AI will benefit society and prevent it from threatening human life. Robots, for example, are believed to develop emotional intelligence sometime, which enables them to recognize, understand and express emotions in a way that is similar to humans, but we must avoid AI copying human emotions. Without legal restrictions, AI may become a social disaster.
The AI-driven new industrial revolution is irreversible. This, like previous ones, which introduced changes that had been unimaginable before, will certainly affect human employment. But it always turned out humanity was able to adapt to each industrial revolution and create new forms of employment. Therefore, it’s unnecessary to worry AI will replace our jobs. While technology advances at a rapid pace, what we need to do is to welcome the AI era rather than block its unfolding for fear of the unknown.
8. Why are some people concerned about AI?
A. It may outsmart humans. B. It has led to social problems.
C. It has been applied widely. D. It is the product of humanity.
9. How can we prevent AI’s potential threat?
A. By stirring emotions. B. By blocking functions.
C. By setting restrictions. D. By changing regulations.
10. What does the underlined word “irreversible” in the last paragraph mean?
A. Undesirable. B. Unavoidable.
C. Unpredictable. D. Unbelievable.
11. What does the writer suggest readers do with the coming of the AI era?
A. Accept it passively. B. Deal with it positively.
C. Respond to it randomly. D. Defend it unconditionally.
D
The natural world provides humans with essential services. For instance, forests channel water into rivers that irrigate crops while their roots prevent landslides. Over decades, therefore, governments have made promises about preserving the world’s biodiversity.
However, those promises have been broken many times, which has caused the depressing destruction of natural environments. One step towards avoiding yet more disappointment is to emphasize the close link between preserving biodiversity and the widely held goal of reaching net-zero carbon emissions. Unfortunately, less known is the link between them.
Given that biodiversity has an important role in meeting these carbon-reduction goals, you might think it would feature highly in the net- emissions plans. Not so. For example, faced with tighter regulation of emissions, many companies are now channeling more time and cash to their firms’ carbon footprints reduction and energy transition, yet the plans have too little to say about biodiversity.
That needs to change. Sale guarding biodiversity is an efficient way to control carbon emissions. Companies and investment firms should pay more attention to the opportunities from preserving ecosystems. By investing in biodiversity—directing capital to projects that repair an ecosystem—companies can offset (抵消) their emissions. By some estimates, projects to manage carbon-rich wetlands and to reforest cleared and could provide more than one-third of the emissions reductions that are needed to prevent more than 2°C of global warming.
Key to managing more capital is better measurement so that the link between investment in natural projects, biodiversity and carbon is made clear. Today some so-called carbon-offset projects that involve firms paying money to are questionable and not supported by evidence. Better guidelines and practice can help and so can new technology. Drones and satellites can improve the measurement of biodiversity and accounting systems can measure how spending on biodiversity compares with pouring cash into other kinds of carbon management.
12. What do we know about biodiversity?
A. Its importance is undervalued. B. Its link with carbon emissions is clear.
C. It is the source of carbon dioxide. D. I gets promised benefits from governments.
13. Why is “many companies” mentioned in paragraph 3?
A. To clarify a rule. B. To make a conclusion.
C. To explain a plan. D. To support an opinion.
14. What is the benefit of safeguarding biodiversity?
A. Rebuilding wetlands. B. Redirecting capital.
C. Cutting carbon emissions. D. Transforming energy.
15. What message does the writer convey in the text?
A. The natural world deserves more investment.
B. The key to managing capital is new regulations.
C. It is hard to achieve net-zero carbon emissions.
D. It is worthwhile spending money on clean energy.

47. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Though I cat an apple almost every day, one month ago my doctor came to my house standing in front of me, not being kept away, due to my sudden illness.
“Well Jian, I think I need to have a strong talk with you. You are overweight. Have you ever heard about Body Mass Index (指数), BMI? Well, I’ve weighed you and measured your height and you have a BMI of 28. That is obese (肥胖的),” said the doctor.
I knew I was a little bit overweight but I didn’t think it was that bad. He added that my name means healthy in Chinese and he thought it is time that I should become healthy. There is a direct link between my health and sport. So he asked me, “How much sport do you do every week?”
I told him that I go for a walk every weekend. Then he replied, “Hmm, that’s not a lot. Sport and health go together. They affect your mental, physical and emotional health. For example, sport can improve your mental health, allowing your brain to think better and focus. It will help you to learn more easily. Is that clear, Jian?”
“I think so. I know it would be good to be able to concentrate better at school.” I said.
The doctor explained to me that from a physical point of view, sport makes us tired so helps us to sleep better. At the same time, sport bums off the calories that we have consumed. It builds muscle and improves our circulation. Sport helps to control our cholesterol count (胆固醇指标) and this is important to stop us having a heart attack. Additionally, it also keeps our blood pressure normal and strengthens our bones.
Para 1: The doctor’s words left me lost in thought.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Para 2: “Exercising alone is hard. Why not: try some team sports?” the doctor suggested.

【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Therefore, it’s unnecessary to worry AI will replace our jobs. While technology advances at a rapid pace, what we need to do is to welcome the AI era rather than block its unfolding for fear of the unknown.(因此,不必担心人工智能会取代我们的工作。虽然技术正在快速发展,但我们需要做的是欢迎人工智能时代的到来,而不是因为害怕未知而阻止它的发展)”可知,作者建议对于未来的人工智能时代的到来,不要因为害怕而去阻止它,而是应该欢迎人工智能时代的到来,即积极地对待它。故选B。

The natural world provides humans with essential services. For instance, forests channel water into rivers that irrigate crops while their roots prevent landslides. Over decades, therefore, governments have made promises about preserving the world’s biodiversity.
However, those promises have been broken many times, which has caused the depressing destruction of natural environments. One step towards avoiding yet more disappointment is to emphasize the close link between preserving biodiversity and the widely held goal of reaching net-zero carbon emissions. Unfortunately, less known is the link between them.
Given that biodiversity has an important role in meeting these carbon-reduction goals, you might think it would feature highly in the net- emissions plans. Not so. For example, faced with tighter regulation of emissions, many companies are now channeling more time and cash to their firms’ carbon footprints reduction and energy transition, yet the plans have too little to say about biodiversity.
That needs to change. Sale guarding biodiversity is an efficient way to control carbon emissions. Companies and investment firms should pay more attention to the opportunities from preserving ecosystems. By investing in biodiversity—directing capital to projects that repair an ecosystem—companies can offset (抵消) their emissions. By some estimates, projects to manage carbon-rich wetlands and to reforest cleared and could provide more than one-third of the emissions reductions that are needed to prevent more than 2°C of global warming.
Key to managing more capital is better measurement so that the link between investment in natural projects, biodiversity and carbon is made clear. Today some so-called carbon-offset projects that involve firms paying money to are questionable and not supported by evidence. Better guidelines and practice can help and so can new technology. Drones and satellites can improve the measurement of biodiversity and accounting systems can measure how spending on biodiversity compares with pouring cash into other kinds of carbon management.
12. What do we know about biodiversity?
A. Its importance is undervalued. B. Its link with carbon emissions is clear.
C. It is the source of carbon dioxide. D. I gets promised benefits from governments.
13. Why is “many companies” mentioned in paragraph 3?
A. To clarify a rule. B. To make a conclusion.
C. To explain a plan. D. To support an opinion.
14. What is the benefit of safeguarding biodiversity?
A. Rebuilding wetlands. B. Redirecting capital.
C. Cutting carbon emissions. D. Transforming energy.
15. What message does the writer convey in the text?
A The natural world deserves more investment.
B. The key to managing capital is new regulations.
C. It is hard to achieve net-zero carbon emissions.
D. It is worthwhile spending money on clean energy.
【答案】12. A 13. D 14. C 15. A
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章强调了生物多样性的重要性,呼吁人们对自然界进行投资。
【12题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段中“One step towards avoiding yet more disappointment is to emphasize the close link between preserving biodiversity and the widely held goal of reaching net-zero carbon emissions. Unfortunately, less known is the link between them. (避免更多失望的一个步骤是强调保护生物多样性与实现净零碳排放的广泛目标之间的密切联系。不幸的是,它们之间的联系鲜为人知。)”以及第三段中“Given that biodiversity has an important role in meeting these carbon-reduction goals, you might think it would feature highly in the net- emissions plans. Not so. (鉴于生物多样性在实现这些碳减排目标方面发挥着重要作用,你可能会认为它将在净排放计划中占据重要地位。不是这样的。)”可知,生物多样性的重要性被低估了。故选A项。
【13题详解】

No one is boring and no one needs to be perfect. But maybe you feel that you are boring and need to be more interesting. ___16___ If you’re looking to be more interesting, then you’ve come to the right place.
Loosen up and be natural. One reason why many people fail to become interesting people is that they worry too much over the small things and don’t come across as natural. Their effort backfires (产生反作用) on them, because they are just trying too hard. ___17___ Live a life one day at a time.
Be positive and optimistic. Interesting people are happy people. This is one of the reasons why we find them so interesting; whether we admit it or not, we want to know how and why happy people are so happy. ___18___
Build an open personality. Be available to the world and look for excitement instead of waiting for it to find you. Celebrate flexibility and a “just go with it” attitude. Often times people aren’t interesting because they are reserved. ___19___ Of course, to some extent, this is true, but you can also take this too far. By holding back too much, you’re limiting your potential and in the process becoming less interesting. The more reserved you get, the more static(停滞的) your life.
___20___ Being interesting means doing things you’ve never done before and being willing to share those experiences with other people.

B. Try to stay relaxed and flexible.

D. Being interesting also involves high intelligence.

47. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Though I cat an apple almost every day, one month ago my doctor came to my house standing in front of me, not being kept away, due to my sudden illness.
“Well Jian, I think I need to have a strong talk with you. You are overweight. Have you ever heard about Body Mass Index (指数), BMI? Well, I’ve weighed you and measured your height and you have a BMI of 28. That is obese (肥胖的),” said the doctor.
I knew I was a little bit overweight but I didn’t think it was that bad. He added that my name means healthy in Chinese and he thought it is time that I should become healthy. There is a direct link between my health and sport. So he asked me, “How much sport do you do every week?”
I told him that I go for a walk every weekend. Then he replied, “Hmm, that’s not a lot. Sport and health go together. They affect your mental, physical and emotional health. For example, sport can improve your mental health, allowing your brain to think better and focus. It will help you to learn more easily. Is that clear, Jian?”
“I think so. I know it would be good to be able to concentrate better at school.” I said.
The doctor explained to me that from a physical point of view, sport makes us tired so helps us to sleep better. At the same time, sport bums off the calories that we have consumed. It builds muscle and improves our circulation. Sport helps to control our cholesterol count (胆固醇指标) and this is important to stop us having a heart attack. Additionally, it also keeps our blood pressure normal and strengthens our bones.
Para 1: The doctor’s words left me lost in thought.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Para 2: “Exercising alone is hard. Why not: try some team sports?” the doctor suggested.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】Para 1:
The doctor’s words left me lost in thought. I realized that I needed to take my health more seriously and make some changes to my lifestyle. I started to look into different sports and exercises that I could do to improve my health. I also began to pay more attention to my diet, cutting out unhealthy foods and replacing them with healthier alternatives. I knew that it wouldn't be easy, but I was determined to make a change.
Para 2:
“Exercising alone is hard. Why not: try some team sports?” the doctor suggested. I thought about it for a moment and realized that he was right. I had always been hesitant to join a sports team, but I decided to give it a try. I joined a local soccer team and was surprised at how much I enjoyed it. Not only was getting the exercise that I needed, but I was also making new friends and having fun in the process. I started to look forward to our weekly practices and games, and I could feel myself getting stronger and healthier with each passing week. Thanks to my doctor's advice, I had found a new way to improve my health and my life.
