Born with a disability in her right leg, Mei faced numerous challenges in her daily life. Nonetheless Mei refused to let her disability define her.
From a young age, Mei harbored a deep passion for painting. With the support of her loving family, she transformed her wheelchair into a mobile easel (画架), it allowing her to create art wherever she went. Every stroke (笔画) of her brush was like a witness to her growth.
As Mei grew older, her talent attracted the attention of the local community. Encouraged by their support, she decided to pursue her dream of becoming a professional artist.

Instead of backing down, Mei pressed on, expressing her frustration in her artwork. Her paintings were beautiful, reflecting the beauty she saw in the world around her.

Eventually, Mei received an invitation to showcase her artwork at the Guggenheim Museum in New York. Wild with joy, she was unsure if she was ready to face the judgement of the art world. With the support of her family and friends, Mei decided to seize the opportunity.
The show was a great success. Through Mei’s journey, she was able to reach thousands of other people with disabilities who would benefit from her experience.

Beer and eggs are commonly seen in the kitchen. However, scientists recently found that they were used in historic paintings, too.
To preserve Danish paintings, a group of researchers studied what was the composition of ancient paint or what it was made of. They did experiments on small pieces of paintings that had already been cut off from the original artwork.
According to their paper published in Science-Advances, grains and yeast (酵母) were found on the base of the paintings. Beer was the most common drink in the 19th century in Denmark, and its by-products were spent (用过已废的) grains and yeast.
The study showed that they were used to provide a stable painting surface. Researchers also pointed out that beer by-product was used as a “glue” because it had a lot of sugar. With beer added, the paint can also dry faster.
Apart from beer, egg has long been found in oil-based paints used by artists in the 15th century, such as Italian painter Leonardo da Vinci. A recent study published in Nature Communications may have “cracked” the secret of how eggs can help preserve artworks.
The researchers re-created the ancient paint by adding egg yolks (蛋黄) to oil paint. They then looked into how it changed over time. The findings showed that the proteins in the yolk helped to slow down the oxidation (氧化) of the paint and reduce wrinkling (皱褶) as the egg makes the paint more smooth.
However, the oil paint with added egg usually takes longer to dry. It seemed fine for artists. They were willing to accept that their work would be preserved for a longer period.
The more we understand how artists choose and use their materials the more we can “appreciate what they’re doing”, Ken Sutherland, an expert at the Art Institute of Chicago, US, told Science News. Sutherland added that research like this could help people have a deeper understanding of the artworks.
51. What is the main purpose of the research mentioned in the passage?
A. To find out how eggs can help to protect the artworks.
B. To study the history of beer and egg consumption in Denmark.
C. To explore the benefits of beer and egg consumption for artists.
D. To research the composition of ancient paint for protecting Danish paintings.
52. Why were beer by-products used in historic Danish paintings?
A. To keep the paintings clean.
B. To help the colors stick better.
C. To give the painting a different look.
D. To make the paintings more colorful.
53. What does the underlined word in Paragraph 5 mean?
A. Kept. B. Shared.
C. Controlled. D. Discovered.
54. How did yolk’s proteins help preserve artworks?
A. By adding color to the paint.
B. By making the paint dry faster.
C. By wrinkling the paint with oil.
D. By slowing down the oxidation of the paint.
55. According to Ken Sutherland, the research like this provides .
A. preservation techniques for paintings
B. deeper understanding of the artworks
C. more appreciation for artists’ materials
D. insights into the history of art materials
D
People generally see themselves through achievements. In doing that, they end up caring more about their image than the reality of who they actually are. Rather than their work doing the talking, they end up defining themselves by external markers that they hope will earn them respect.
The problem with this is that it encourages both themselves and other people to judge their worth based on some relatively unimportant measure. For example one day, their educational diploma may overshadow what they actually learned. Therefore, a better way to know a person, I think, is to ask a different set of questions: What motivates them? What makes them ache? What do they long for?
It’s in this spirit that I want to publicly share my values. They are the compass (罗盘) that guides my life. The kindest and most sincere thing I can do is to see, recognize, and understand another person before I make judgments. From there, I can learn to treat others appropriately, depending on the context, learning from my mistakes with time and experience. It’s just a reminder that life is hard for all of us, while at the same time accepting that it’s important we are all also held accountable for our actions.
I have learned that we are all deeply self-interested. I hope to be self-aware enough to check out of the power and status games. That means I’m not competing with anyone for a shiny object; I’d rather compete with myself. It’s about becoming so uniquely different that it would be an insult (侮辱) for me to measure myself against someone else. I believe if I do the work to be internally free from the pull of the power and status games, then I can add value to others based on my unique knowledge and experience.
If this resonates with (与……共鸣) you, I invite you to join me on this journey in understanding and relating to this complex world. It’s a wonderful mystery, and I think together we can better define it — not just personally, but also collectively.
56. According to the article, which of the following is TRUE?
A. Achievements are the only thing that can help people see themselves.
B. People may misunderstand that they can only earn respect through external markers.
C. The author is someone who is keen on power games.
D. Learning from mistakes is the first step of treating others kindly.
57. In the author’s opinion, what is a better way to judge a person? .
A. To know about their educational diploma first.
B. To see, recognize and understand them first.
C. To talk with them first.
D. To know what they have done first.
58. What does the underlined word“overshadow” probably mean?
A. be relatively similar to. B. cause something to be stronger than.
C. make something less important. D. block off light from something.
59. Which of the following might the author agree with?
A. Life is hard, so we shouldn’t criticize others when they are not responsible.
B. One should draw on wider knowledge in order to judge others objectively.
C. Everyone is unique, so showing off uniqueness is an insult to others.
D. One should see and understand another person using a real compass.
60. Why does the author write the article?
A. To promote harmonious living.
B. To ask people not to judge others.
C. To call on readers to learn his values.
D To share his values of understanding and relating to the world.

Born with a disability in her right leg, Mei faced numerous challenges in her daily life. Nonetheless Mei refused to let her disability define her.
From a young age, Mei harbored a deep passion for painting. With the support of her loving family, she transformed her wheelchair into a mobile easel (画架), it allowing her to create art wherever she went. Every stroke (笔画) of her brush was like a witness to her growth.
As Mei grew older, her talent attracted the attention of the local community. Encouraged by their support, she decided to pursue her dream of becoming a professional artist. However, Mei soon encountered doubt from others, even her childhood best friends, who questioned her ability to succeed in the art world.
Instead of backing down, Mei pressed on, expressing her frustration in her artwork. Her paintings were beautiful, reflecting the beauty she saw in the world around her. Through her art, Mei found a sense of purpose, proving to herself and others that disabilities could not put out the fire of creativity.
Eventually, Mei received an invitation to showcase her artwork at the Guggenheim Museum in New York. Wild with joy, she was unsure if she was ready to face the judgement of the art world. With the support of her family and friends, Mei decided to seize the opportunity.
The show was a great success. Through Mei’s journey, she was able to reach thousands of other people with disabilities who would benefit from her experience. That’s why she is still pressing on and fighting — not because she’s broken, but because she not only has an opportunity to fully achieve her potential as a disabled person but also has the will to inspire everyone else around her.
46. What did Mei face when she decided to become an artist?
A. Apologies from her best friends.
B. Distrust of her ability to succeed.
C. Attention to her painting crafts.
D. Congratulations on her instant success.
47. How did Mei feel when she got invited by the Guggenheim Museum?
A. Saddened.
B. Astonished.
C. Uncertain.
D. Embarrassed.
48. What made Mei press on now that her show was a success?
A. Her pursuit of being a professional.
B. Her willingness to inspire others.
C. Her power to transform disabilities.
D. Her aim to make her experience known.
49. Which of the statement about Mei is TRUE?
A. She inspired thousands of disabled people through the show.
B. Her family played a positive role in her success.
C. She decided to become a professional artist at a young age.
D. She survived the judgement of the art world with the support of her family and friends.
50. What would be the best title of the passage?
A. A Challenging Life: Mei’s Story of Determination
B. From Failure to Victory: Mei’s Valuable Life Lesson
C. Rejecting Limits: Mei’s Story and Her Artistic Success
D. The Journey of Inspiration: Mei’s Determination to Help Others

Beer and eggs are commonly seen in the kitchen. However, scientists recently found that they were used in historic paintings, too.
To preserve Danish paintings, a group of researchers studied what was the composition of ancient paint or what it was made of. They did experiments on small pieces of paintings that had already been cut off from the original artwork.
According to their paper published in Science-Advances, grains and yeast (酵母) were found on the base of the paintings. Beer was the most common drink in the 19th century in Denmark, and its by-products were spent (用过已废的) grains and yeast.
The study showed that they were used to provide a stable painting surface. Researchers also pointed out that beer by-product was used as a “glue” because it had a lot of sugar. With beer added, the paint can also dry faster.
Apart from beer, egg has long been found in oil-based paints used by artists in the 15th century, such as Italian painter Leonardo da Vinci. A recent study published in Nature Communications may have “cracked” the secret of how eggs can help preserve artworks.
The researchers re-created the ancient paint by adding egg yolks (蛋黄) to oil paint. They then looked into how it changed over time. The findings showed that the proteins in the yolk helped to slow down the oxidation (氧化) of the paint and reduce wrinkling (皱褶) as the egg makes the paint more smooth.
However, the oil paint with added egg usually takes longer to dry. It seemed fine for artists. They were willing to accept that their work would be preserved for a longer period.
The more we understand how artists choose and use their materials, the more we can “appreciate what they’re doing”, Ken Sutherland, an expert at the Art Institute of Chicago, US, told Science News. Sutherland added that research like this could help people have a deeper understanding of the artworks.
51. What is the main purpose of the research mentioned in the passage?
A. To find out how eggs can help to protect the artworks.
B. To study the history of beer and egg consumption in Denmark.
C. To explore the benefits of beer and egg consumption for artists.
D. To research the composition of ancient paint for protecting Danish paintings.
52. Why were beer by-products used in historic Danish paintings?
A. To keep the paintings clean.
B. To help the colors stick better.
C. To give the painting a different look.
D. To make the paintings more colorful.
53. What does the underlined word in Paragraph 5 mean?
A. Kept. B. Shared.
C. Controlled. D. Discovered.
54. How did yolk’s proteins help preserve artworks?
A. By adding color to the paint.
B. By making the paint dry faster.
C. By wrinkling the paint with oil.
D. By slowing down the oxidation of the paint.
55. According to Ken Sutherland, the research like this provides .
A. preservation techniques for paintings
B. deeper understanding of the artworks
C. more appreciation for artists’ materials
D. insights into the history of art materials

They did experiments on small pieces of paintings that had already been cut off from the original artwork.(为了保存丹麦绘画,一组研究人员研究了古代绘画的成分或它是由什么制成的。他们在已经从原作上剪下来的小块画上做实验。)”可知,为了保存丹麦绘画研究人员研究了古代绘画的成分或它是由什么制成的;由此可知,这项研究的目的是研究古代绘画颜料的成分以保护丹麦绘画。故选D。
【52题详解】

It seemed fine for artists. They were willing to accept that their work would be preserved for a longer period.(然而,加入鸡蛋的油画颜料通常需要更长的时间才能干透。这对艺术家来说似乎还不错。他们愿意接受他们的作品将被保存更长的时间。)”可知,研究人员发现蛋黄中的蛋白质有助于减缓颜料的氧化和减少褶皱,加入鸡蛋的油画颜料通常需要更长的时间才能干透,让作品能够保存更长时间;由此可知,研究人员发现颜料中添加鸡蛋如何帮助保存画作,划线词所在句“A recent study published in Nature Communications may have “cracked” the secret of how eggs can help preserve artworks.(最近发表在《自然通讯》上的一项研究可能已经‘cracked’了鸡蛋如何帮助保存艺术品的秘密。)”表达的意思是:最近发表在《自然通讯》上的一项研究可能已经破解了鸡蛋如何帮助保存艺术品的秘密;划线单词cracked为“破解,发现”的意思,与D项Discovered“发现”意思一致。故选D。

People generally see themselves through achievements. In doing that, they end up caring more about their image than the reality of who they actually are. Rather than their work doing the talking, they end up defining themselves by external markers that they hope will earn them respect.
The problem with this is that it encourages both themselves and other people to judge their worth based on some relatively unimportant measure. For example, one day, their educational diploma may overshadow what they actually learned. Therefore, a better way to know a person, I think, is to ask a different set of questions: What motivates them? What makes them ache? What do they long for?
It’s in this spirit that I want to publicly share my values. They are the compass (罗盘) that guides my life. The kindest and most sincere thing I can do is to see, recognize, and understand another person before I make judgments. From there, I can learn to treat others appropriately, depending on the context, learning from my mistakes with time and experience. It’s just a reminder that life is hard for all of us, while at the same time accepting that it’s important we are all also held accountable for our actions.
I have learned that we are all deeply self-interested. I hope to be self-aware enough to check out of the power and status games. That means I’m not competing with anyone for a shiny object; I’d rather compete with myself. It’s about becoming so uniquely different that it would be an insult (侮辱) for me to measure myself against someone else. I believe if I do the work to be internally free from the pull of the power and status games, then I can add value to others based on my unique knowledge and experience.
If this resonates with (与……共鸣) you, I invite you to join me on this journey in understanding and relating to this complex world. It’s a wonderful mystery, and I think together we can better define it — not just personally, but also collectively.
56. According to the article, which of the following is TRUE?
A. Achievements are the only thing that can help people see themselves.
B. People may misunderstand that they can only earn respect through external markers.
C. The author is someone who is keen on power games.
D. Learning from mistakes is the first step of treating others kindly.
57. In the author’s opinion, what is a better way to judge a person? .
A. To know about their educational diploma first.
B. To see, recognize and understand them first.
C. To talk with them first.
D. To know what they have done first.
58. What does the underlined word“overshadow” probably mean?
A. be relatively similar to. B. cause something to be stronger than.
C. make something less important. D. block off light from something.
59. Which of the following might the author agree with?
A. Life is hard, so we shouldn’t criticize others when they are not responsible.
B. One should draw on wider knowledge in order to judge others objectively.
C. Everyone is unique, so showing off uniqueness is an insult to others.
D. One should see and understand another person using a real compass.
60. Why does the author write the article?
A. To promote harmonious living.
B. To ask people not to judge others.
C. To call on readers to learn his values.
D. To share his values of understanding and relating to the world.

【56题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第一段“People generally see themselves through achievements. In doing that, they end up caring more about their image than the reality of who they actually are. Rather than their work doing the talking, they end up defining themselves by external markers that they hope will earn them respect.(人们通常通过成就来认识自己。在这样做的过程中,他们最终会更加关心自己的形象,而不是自己真正的模样。他们不再让工作成果来说明一切,而是用他们希望能赢得尊重的外部标志来定义自己)”可知,人们可能会错误地认为通过外部标志(如成就、地位等)来赢得尊重。故选B。
【57题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第三段“The kindest and most sincere thing I can do is to see, recognize, and understand another person before I make judgments.(我能做的最善良、最真诚的事情就是在做出判断之前,先去看清、认识和理解另一个人)”可知,作者认为判断一个人的更好方式,即首先去看清、认识和理解他们。故选B。
【58题详解】
词句猜测题。根据划线单词所在段“The problem with this is that it encourages both themselves and other people to judge their worth based on some relatively unimportant measure. For example, one day, their educational diploma may overshadow what they actually learned.(这种做法的问题是,它鼓励自己和他人用一些相对不重要的标准来衡量自己的价值。例如,有一天,他们的学历可能会______他们真正学到的东西)”可推测,划线单词的意思应该是一个动词,表示学历可能会掩盖或使真正学到的东西变得不那么重要。因此,划线单词的意思与“掩盖”或“使……变得不那么重要”相近。选项C“make something less important(使某物变得不那么重要)”与此相符。故选C。
【59题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第二段“Therefore, a better way to know a person, I think, is to ask a different set of questions: What motivates them? What makes them ache? What do they long for?(因此,我认为,要了解一个人,更好的方法是问一系列不同的问题:是什么激励着他们?是什么让他们痛苦?他们又渴望什么?)”以及第三段“The kindest and most sincere thing I can do is to see, recognize, and understand another person before I make judgments.(我能做的最善良、最真诚的事情就是在做出判断之前,先去看清、认识和理解另一个人。)”可推测,作者强调了在判断他人之前要先看清、认识和理解他们,这暗示了为了做出更准确的判断,需要更深入、更全面的了解。故选B。
【60题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段中“It’s in this spirit that I want to publicly share my values. (正是本着这种精神,我想公开分享我的价值观)”以及最后一段中“If this resonates with (与……共鸣) you, I invite you to join me on this journey in understanding and relating to this complex world.(如果这与你产生共鸣,我邀请你加入我理解和联系这个复杂世界的旅程)”并结合全文内容可推知,文章作者通过分享自己如何从一个以成就为自我定义的人转变为一个更注重内在成长和理解他人的人,来分享他理解和与世界相关的价值观。他邀请读者加入他,一起探索这个复杂的世界,这表明文章的主要目的是分享他的价值观。故选D。
