If you are considering this option for getting your degree, don’t forget to check out this gem. Rather than give the standard sales pitch, I will list the top reasons that I chose Western Governor’s University for my master’s degree. Lower tuition (学费) The tuition is lower than comparable online schools. Each term is six months long, giving me more time to complete the requirements for the term. In addition, if I finish early and still have time left in my term, I can do a part-time job to earn enough money for the schooling. I find this option to be very cost-effective. Flexible courses If I have learned enough either through life experience, on the job training, or in class, I can take the exam and skip the course. For example, I learned a great deal about special education law from working in the field, attended conferences, and took classes for my second bachelor’s degree. I was able to take the test, and pass, thus finishing the class quickly and focusing on other areas where I needed more studying time. Personal support I have a mentor (导师) assigned to me. My mentor is my contact person for questions and support. I get calls on a regular basis. We talk about where I am in my studies, what my next steps are, and any question I may have. I also have the online communities where I can go on the discussion with my schoolmates when I have questions. Respected degree I checked with the State Office of Education to find out if this was a good way to go. I learned that a degree from Western Governor’s University was a respected degree that is considered comparable to a degree from a traditional brick and mortar (灰泥) university. I am nearly finished with my degree from Western Governor’s University. I gain confidence in my abilities, and am very happy with my decision. 36.

It was 13 years in the making, built on dreams and a friendship that crosses continents. The organizer, Beka Ntsanwisi — a well-known community activist and cancer survivor — founded the original team of soccer-playing grandmothers aged 40 to 80, some 15 years ago, to improve their health. At first the locals laughed at them and told them they belonged at home caring for their grandchildren. But a team doctor recorded results from their regular exercise: improved mobility, lowered blood pressure and better digestion. In 2010, the international spotlight landed the team an invitation to travel and play in a tournament in Massachusetts — from yours truly. Like the Grannies, I found soccer later in life and my Lexington, Massachusetts teammates are among my best friends. Beka replied to my invitation without hesitation: “We will come, my sister.” In July 2010, 15 Grannies streamed through the Boston airport. They wowed (博得称赞) us with their dancing on the sidelines of the field and their enthusiasm for life. And during that visit, Beka announced, “Before I die, I want to host a Grannies World Cup.” In March, 2023, Beka’s 13-year wish to host a Grannies international tournament was finally and joyfully met. The tournament, held in the town of Nkowankowa, was intense as France, Zambia, three South African teams, and all three U. S. teams entered the quarterfinals on the fourth and final day. My team would settle for second place, but the U. S. Breakers, also from Massachusetts, held the 3-foot-tall trophy (奖杯) in the air. The goalie (守门员) presented the trophy to Beka and the host Grannies team, without whom this event would never have taken place. We know Beka is the true champion. For me, the Grannies tournament was an extraordinary gift, an experience I will never forget. For all of us, we hold on to our memories of bonding with, our soccer sisters. 41. What can be implied from paragraph 1? A. It took long to make the tournament a reality. B. The tournament aims to help grannies make friends. C. These women’s teams consist of professional football players. D. The tournament caused a stir in the international football community. 42. What can we learn about the original team founded by Beka?

D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇新闻报道。文章报道了在南非农村，16支由50多岁的女性组成的球队参加了奶奶国际足球锦标赛的首场比赛。 【41题详解】 推理判断题。通读全文，根据第一段“In rural South Africa, 16 teams of women, all of us over 50 years old, participated in this inaugural (开幕的) event — the Grannies International Football Tournament. It was 13 years in the making, built on dreams and a friendship that crosses continents.(在南非农村，16支由50多岁的女性组成的球队参加了这场首场比赛——奶奶国际足球锦标赛。它经历了13年的发展，建立在跨越大陆的梦想和友谊之上。)”可知，比赛的目的之一是帮助老奶奶们交朋友。故选B项。 【42题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中“The organizer, Beka Ntsanwisi — a well-known community activist and cancer survivor — founded the original team of soccer-playing grandmothers aged 40 to 80, some 15 years ago, to improve their health. (组织者Beka Ntsanwisi是一位著名的社区活动家和癌症幸存者，大约15年前，她成立了一支由40到80岁的老奶奶组成的足球队，以改善她们的健康状况。)”可知，Beka最初创建的团队是为了促进了其成员的福祉。故选C项。 【43题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“In July 2010, 15 Grannies streamed through the Boston airport. They wowed (博得称赞) us with their dancing on the sidelines of the field and their enthusiasm for life. And during that visit, Beka announced, “Before I die, I want to host a Grannies World Cup.”(2010年7月，15名“奶奶”穿过波士顿机场。他们在场边的舞蹈和对生活的热情让我们惊叹不已。在那次访问中，贝卡宣布，“在我死之前，我想举办一届奶奶世界杯。”)”可知，作者邀请她们参加比赛，所以这15位奶奶飞往波士顿是去参加足球比赛。故选A项。 【44题详解】 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中“The goalie (守门员) presented the trophy to Beka and the host Grannies team, without whom this event would never have taken place. (守门员将奖杯颁发给贝卡和东道主“奶奶队”，没有她们，这场比赛就不会举行。)”可知，守门员把奖杯送给贝卡是对贝卡的主动性表示认可。故选C项。 【45题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，根据第一段“In rural South Africa, 16 teams of women, all of us over 50 years old, participated in this inaugural (开幕的) event — the Grannies International Football Tournament. It was 13 years in the making, built on dreams and a friendship that crosses continents.(在南非农村，16支由50多岁的女性组成的球队参加了这场首场比赛——奶奶国际足球锦标赛。它经历了13年的发展，建立在跨越大陆的梦想和友谊之上。)”可知，本文主要介绍了在南非农村，16支由50多岁的女性组成的球队参加了这场首场比赛——奶奶国际足球锦标赛。它经历了13年的发展，建立在跨越大陆的梦想和友谊之上。D“了不起的奶奶们：一项全球性的足球活动”符合主题，适合做标题，故选D项。 C When plates are set on the table, phones, rather than forks, are at the ready. At this point in our social media entanglement (纠缠)，the fact that the camera eats first is pretty much a given. Sure, some chefs, including Michelin rated star chefs, express their displeasure at this, but efforts to make the table a screen-free domain have mostly fallen flat. New research from Aston University has found that people are indeed influenced by the food photos that their friends post on social media. For example, for every serving of fruits and vegetables that a person thinks their friends are eating, they’ll eat one-fifth of a serving more. This number makes more sense within the context of the recommended “five a day”, meaning someone who’s being influenced would make a point of eating six portions of fruits or vegetables. Similarly, for every three portions of junk food that a person sees friends consuming on social media, they’ll eat an extra one. The researchers have suggested that social media can be very beneficial when it comes to people’s choices of food and their diets. Study supervisors Dr. Jason Thomas said, “The implication is that we can use social media as a tool to encourage each other’s eating choice within friendship groups, and use this knowledge as a tool for public health interventions.” Actually, the daily food situation is somewhat different from everything else posted on social media. People also desire to copy what they see but they need good social media literacy skills in order to grasp what’s realistic and what’s absurd. It is necessary to avoid the fake perfection of social media. It gets boring trying to figure out what to eat three times a day, week after week, so no wonder people want to take the path of least resistance and eat what their friends are eating. Unfortunately, most of what gets posted is the more time-consuming recipes or the attractively styled restaurant meals. By all means, keep your antennae (触角) out for new ideas, but gather them from food magazines, cookbooks, store flyers, reliable cooking websites, and recommended recipes from friends and family. 46. What phenomenon is talked about in Par.1? A. The influence of social media on people’s diet. B. People’s taking photos of food before eating. C. Chefs’ efforts to make the table screen-free. D. The pursuit of dining in fancy restaurant. 47. What’s the consequence of people’s seeing their friends’ online post? A. They’ll copy what their friends do. B. They’ll take junk food more seriously. C. They’ll consume more than their friends. D. They’ll care more about their friends’ eating habits. 48. What’s Dr. Jason Thomas’s attitude towards social media? A. Positive. B. Doubtful. C. Concerned. D. Unclear. 49. What might people referring to others’ diets be advised to do? A. Form their own diet styles. B. Find the similarities among others’ diets. C. Avoid aiming for perfection in daily meals. D. Enhance their critical thinking and skepticism. 50. What does the author intend to do in the last paragraph? A. Point out the unreality of social media. B. Call on people to enrich their knowledge in cooking. C. Introduce the general classification of food posted online. D. Encourage people to broaden their sources of food inspiration. 【答案】46. B 47. C 48. A 49. D 50. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。主要介绍了随着社交媒体上越来越多的美食图片出现，人们开始关注到，观看食物照片的帖子会影响我们的食物摄取量，建议参考别人的饮食的人们应该增强他们的批判性思维和怀疑精神。 【46题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“When plates are set on the table, phones, rather than forks, are at the ready. At this point in our social media entanglement(纠缠)，the fact that the camera eats first is pretty much a given. Sure, some chefs, including Michelin rated star chefs, express their displeasure at this, but efforts to make the table a screen-free domain have mostly fallen flat. (当盘子放在桌子上时，准备用的是电话，而不是叉子。在这一点上，我们的社交媒体纠缠，相机先吃的事实几乎是给定的。当然，一些厨师，包括米其林星级厨师，表达了他们对此的不满，但让餐桌成为无屏幕区域的努力大多失败了。)”可知，第一段谈论了人们在吃饭前给食物拍照的现象。故选B项。 【47题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段中“New research from Aston University has found that people are indeed influenced by the food photos that their friends post on social media. For example, for every serving of fruits and vegetables that a person thinks their friends are eating, they’ll eat one-fifth of a serving more. This number makes more sense within the context of the recommended “five a day”, meaning someone who’s being influenced would make a point of eating six portions of fruits or vegetables. Similarly, for every three portions of junk food that a person sees friends consuming on social media, they’ll eat an extra one. (阿斯顿大学的新研究发现，人们确实会受到朋友在社交媒体上发布的食物照片的影响。例如，一个人认为他的朋友正在吃的每一份水果和蔬菜，他们就会多吃五分之一份。在建议的“每天五份”的背景下，这个数字更有意义，这意味着受影响的人会特别注意吃六份水果或蔬菜。同样，当一个人看到朋友在社交媒体上吃垃圾食品时，他们每吃三份，就会多吃一份。)”可知，人们看到朋友的在线帖子的后果是他们会比他们的朋友消费得更多。故选C项。 【48题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第三段中“Study supervisors Dr. Jason Thomas said, ‘The implication is that we can use social media as a tool to encourage each other’s eating choice within friendship groups, and use this knowledge as a tool for public health interventions.’ (研究主管杰森·托马斯博士说：“这意味着我们可以利用社交媒体作为一种工具，在朋友圈中鼓励彼此的饮食选择，并将这些知识作为公共卫生干预的工具。”)”可知，Dr. Jason Thomas对社交媒体的态度是肯定的。故选A项。 【49题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第四段中“Actually, the daily food situation is somewhat different from everything else posted on social media. People also desire to copy what they see but they need good social media literacy skills in order to grasp what’s realistic and what’s absurd. It is necessary to avoid the fake perfection of social media. (实际上，每天的食物状况与社交媒体上发布的其他内容有些不同。人们也渴望复制他们看到的东西，但他们需要良好的社交媒体素养技能，以便掌握什么是现实的，什么是荒谬的。有必要避免社交媒体的虚假完美。)”可知，建议参考别人的饮食的人们应该增强他们的批判性思维和怀疑精神。故选D项。 【50题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段中“By all means, keep your antennae (触角) out for new ideas, but gather them from food magazines, cookbooks, store flyers, reliable cooking websites, and recommended recipes from friends and family. (无论如何，保持你的触角去寻找新的想法，但是从食物杂志、烹饪书、商店传单、可靠的烹饪网站以及朋友和家人推荐的食谱中收集它们。)”可知，最后一段鼓励人们拓宽食物灵感的来源。故选D项。 D Picture this: you are running late to drop your kids off at school in the morning. On top of this, it is pouring rain outside. While you are driving down the highway, another car cuts you off. You begin to think they must be a rude person who is also a terrible driver. A couple of minutes later, you, yourself accidentally cut off someone. You inform yourself your action is a result of the fact that you are late for your child’s drop-off and you cannot see well because of the rain. Why is it that we automatically assume others’ negative actions are a result of who they are as a person while giving ourselves excuses? The actor-observer bias (偏差) is an explanation for this confusing phenomenon. When you explain someone’s behavior based on internal factors, like assuming the person who cuts you off is a rude person, but attribute (归因于) your own behavior to external situational factors, you are engaging in the actor-observer bias. So why does the actor-observer effect occur? The general explanation is that it occurs as a defense mechanism for maintaining high personal dignity. We would rather believe that our faults come from factors we cannot control because then we cannot change them and it is easier for us to accept the outcome. The actor-observer bias is the cause of many arguments between the actor and the observer as a result of a misunderstanding of the effect of external and internal factors. How can we stop thinking this way and become more sympathetic to the people around us? This is where it gets tricky because the observer’ s internal attributions are an automatic process which means they occur almost immediately and unconsciously (无意识地). In order to become more sympathetic towards surrounding people in situations, we must make the attributions a controlled process. A controlled process is when the observer purposely focuses attention on something and is consciously aware of the process, unlike an automatic process. Knowing what the actor-observer effect is and how it can influence your own attributions is a good step toward becoming more sympathetic and kinder to people you interact with. 51. How would we define the other driver’s behavior in paragraph 1? A. An emotional outburst. B. A display of bad manners. C. A moment of carelessness. D. An unavoidable circumstance. 52. Why do we fall for the actor-observer bias? A. To safeguard our self-image. B. To avoid arguments with others. C. To promote sympathy towards others. D. To ensure fairness in interpersonal interactions. 53. What is the basic reason behind the difficulty in stopping the observer’s internal attribution behaviors? A. They can’t totally be controlled. B. They maintain people’s dignity. C. They happen without people being aware of it. D. People don’t know about the actor-observer effect. 54. How might an observer be more considerate to an actor’s actions? A. By focusing on the situational factors. B. By making the attribution process automatic. C. By attributing these actions to internal factors. D. By imagining themselves in the same situations. 55. What is the best title for the text? A. Why we repeat our mistakes. B. How we can stop blaming others. C. What is the science of social justice. D. Why we always ignore our own faults. 【答案】51. B 52. A 53. C 54. A 55. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了“行动者—观察者偏差”，即人们往往会将他人负面的行为归 因于其个人特质，而将自己的相同行为归因于外部情境。作者指出了如何克服这种偏差，变得更加同情和善待他人。 【51题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“Picture this: you are running late to drop your kids off at school in the morning. On top of this, it is pouring rain outside. While you are driving down the highway, another car cuts you off. You begin to think they must be a rude person who is also a terrible driver. (想象一下：早上你送孩子上学迟到了。除此之外，外面还下着倾盆大雨。当你在高速公路上行驶时，另一辆车挡住了你。你开始认为他们一定是一个粗鲁的人，也是一个糟糕的司机)”可知，我们常常会将其他驾驶员的行为认为是不礼貌的表现。故选B。 【52题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“So why does the actor-observer effect occur? The general explanation is that it occurs as a defense mechanism for maintaining high personal dignity. We would rather believe that our faults come from factors we cannot control because then we cannot change them and it is easier for us to accept the outcome. (那么为什么行为人-观察者效应会发生呢？一般的解释是，它是一种维护个人尊严的防御机制。我们宁愿相信我们的错误来自我们无法控制的因素，因为这样我们就无法改变它们，我们更容易接受结果)”可知，为了维持我们的 自尊，我们陷入了一种防御机制，落入了“行动者—观察者偏差”的陷阱。故选A。 【53题详解】 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中“This is where it gets tricky because the observer’ s internal attributions are an automatic process which means they occur almost immediately and unconsciously (无意识地). (这就是它变得棘手的地方，因为观察者的内部归因是一个自动过程，这意味着它们几乎是立即和无意识地发生的。)”可知，观察者的内在归因行为难以停止的基本原因是这些行为是在人们没有意识到的情况下发生的。故选C。 【54题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“In order to become more sympathetic towards surrounding people in situations, we must make the attributions a controlled process. A controlled process is when the observer purposely focuses attention on something and is consciously aware of the process, unlike an automatic process. Knowing what the actor-observer effect is and how it can influence your own attributions is a good step toward becoming more sympathetic and kinder to people you interact with. (为了在某些情况下对周围的人更加同情，我们必须使归因成为一个可控的过程。与自动过程不同，受控过程是指观察者有意识地将注意力集中在某件事上，并有意识地意识到这一过程。了解什么是行动者-观察者效应，以及它如何影响你自己的归因，是朝着对你交往的人更有同情心、更友善迈出的一步)”以及第二段“When you explain someone’s behavior based on internal factors, like assuming the person who cuts you off is a rude person, but attribute (归因于) your own behavior to external situational factors, you are engaging in the actor-observer bias. (当你根据内部因素来解释某人的行为时，比如假设打断你的人是个粗鲁的人，但把你自己的行为归因于外部情境因素，你就陷入了行动者-观察者偏见)”可知，“行动者—观察者效应”的无意识归因是观察者将行为者的行为归因到其内部因 素上。由此可推知，观察者可以通过关注情境因素，即外部因素，来理解行动者的行为。 故选A。 【55题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是根据第一段“Picture this: you are running late to drop your kids off at school in the morning. On top of this, it is pouring rain outside. While you are driving down the highway, another car cuts you off. You begin to think they must be a rude person who is also a terrible driver. A couple of minutes later, you, yourself accidentally cut off someone. You inform yourself your action is a result of the fact that you are late for your child’s drop-off and you cannot see well because of the rain. Why is it that we automatically assume others’ negative actions are a result of who they are as a person while giving ourselves excuses? The actor-observer bias (偏差) is an explanation for this confusing phenomenon. (想象一下：早上你送孩子上学迟到了。除此之外，外面还下着倾盆大雨。当你在高速公路上行驶时，另一辆车挡住了你。你开始认为他们一定是一个粗鲁的人，也是一个糟糕的司机。几分钟后，你不小心切断了别人的电话。你告诉自己，你的行为是由于你迟到了孩子的下车，因为下雨你看不清楚。为什么我们会自动地认为别人的消极行为是他们作为一个人的结果，而给自己找借口？行为者-观察者偏见可以解释这种令人困惑的现象)”可知，文章介绍了“行动者—观察者偏差”的概念（人们往往会将他人负面的行为归因 于其个人特质，而将自己的相同行为归因于外部情境），分析了其出现的原因，导致的后果，并提出了克服这种偏差的方法。D项“Why we always ignore our own faults (为什么我们总是会忽视自己的错误)”最能概括文意，适合作为标题。故选D。 第Ⅱ卷(非选择题 共35分) 第三部分：写作(共两节； 满分35分) 第一节：阅读表达(共5小题； 每小题2分，满分10分) 阅读表达 My dad told me that when I was two years old, I said I was going to be the next Michael Jordan. My dad took my wish seriously. One day when I was 3, he asked, “Do you want to be the next Michael Jordan and are you willing to do any amount of workouts in order to achieve this — whether it’s windy or snowy?” I nodded. Then he handed a piece of paper to me, and warned, “This will be one serious promise.” He gestured for me to sign my signature on the paper. Unknown about what he had written on the paper, I sensed the seriousness of the moment. The next early morning, my father pushed me to the driveway for playing basketball. “First,” he instructed, “we will start with the art of dribbling (运球).” I looked at him, unsure if he was serious, and threw the basketball with both hands back to him as he began to instruct me. I stood out in that driveway for three hours that morning. Never had I felt more tired in my three years of life. Every time my attention began to wander, my father would harshly drag me back to the present. I was beginning to repent of my decision to be the female version of Michael Jordan a little bit. In the following mornings, my dad dragged me out to the driveway to continually coach me. Each time I wanted to give up, he would take my signed piece of paper, telling me that I couldn’t take back my words then. By the age of ten, after approximately 7,350 hours, my dad predicted my skill was better than my peers’ in the state. My dad began telling me that being a world-class expert required 10,000 hours of practice. Then I had a new goal. One tough day, when I was fourteen, at the end of our practice session, my dad said, “Congratulations!” That evening, we had a party, with a basketball-shaped cake with the number10,000. During the party, my dad asked, “So are you going to quit now?” I smiled, “Never! WNBA, here I come.” 56. What promise did the author make by putting her signature on the paper? (no more than 15 words) ________________________________________________________________________________ 57. Why was the author so tired the next morning after signing the paper? (no more than 10 words) ________________________________________________________________________________ 58. What does the underlined part in paragraph 4 probably mean? (1 word) ________________________________________________________________________________ 59. What did the author’s dad congratulate her on? (no more than 8 words) ________________________________________________________________________________ 60. What lesson do you learn from the author’s story? (no more than 20 words) ________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】56. To be the next Michael Jordan. 57. Because of receiving tough basketball training from her dad. 58. Regret. 59. Completing 10,000 hours of practice. 60. The story shows the importance of persistence and hard work. 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。主要讲述了作者为了成为世界级的篮球专家，和父亲一起刻苦训练，实现目标的故事。 【56题详解】 考查细节理解。根据第一段“One day when I was 3, he asked, “Do you want to be the next Michael Jordan and are you willing to do any amount of workouts in order to achieve this — whether it’s windy or snowy?” I nodded.(在我3岁那年的一天，他问我：“你想成为下一个迈克尔·乔丹吗？你愿意为了达到这个目标而进行任何程度的训练吗——不管刮风还是下雪？”我点了点头)”可知，作者在纸上签名承诺成为下一个迈克尔·乔丹。故答案为To be the next Michael Jordan. 【57题详解】 考查细节理解。根据第三段中““First,” he instructed, “we will start with the art of dribbling (运球) .” I looked at him, unsure if he was serious, and threw the basketball with both hands back to him as he began to instruct me. I stood out in that driveway for three hours that morning. Never had I felt more tired in my three years of life.(“首先，”他指示道，“我们将从运球开始。”我看着他，不确定他是不是认真的，在他开始指导我的时候，我双手把篮球扔回给他。那天早上我在私人车道上站了三个小时。在我三年的生活中，我从来没有感到这么累过。)”可知，作者在签字后的第二天早上如此疲惫是因为父亲对她进行了严格的篮球训练。故答案为Because of receiving tough basketball training from her dad. 【58题详解】 考查词句猜测。根据划线词后文“my decision to be the female version of Michael Jordan(成为女版的迈克尔·乔丹的决定)”以及“Each time I wanted to give up, he would take my signed piece of paper, telling me that I couldn’t take back my words then.(每次我想放弃的时候，他就会拿走我签过名的那张纸，告诉我说我不能收回我的话)”可知，后文提到作者每次想要放弃的时候，父亲会说不能收回自己的话，说明作者开始为自己之前想要成为女版迈克尔·乔丹的决定后悔，故划线词意思是“后悔”。故答案为Regret. 【59题详解】 考查细节理解。根据最后一段“One tough day, when I was fourteen, at the end of our practice session, my dad said, “Congratulations!” That evening, we had a party, with a basketball-shaped cake with the number10,000.(在我十四岁那年，有一天，我们的训练结束了，爸爸对我说：“恭喜你！”那天晚上，我们举行了一个聚会，有一个篮球形状的蛋糕，上面有数字10000)”可知，作者的父亲祝贺她完成10000小时的练习。故答案为Completing 10,000 hours of practice. 【60题详解】 考查开放题。根据“你从作者的故事中学到了什么？”可回答：故事显示了坚持不懈和努力工作的重要性。故答案为The story shows the importance of persistence and hard work. 第二节：书面表达(满分25分) 61. 假设你是晨光中学的李华，下周你校将与英国的友好学校举办一场在线交流活动，主题为“如何学好中国古诗词 (How to learn Chinese ancient poetry well)”。请你根据以下提示撰写一篇发言稿： 1. 学习中国古诗词的意义； 2. 学习中国古诗词的建议； 3. 表达愿望和祝福。 注意:1. 词数100左右； 2. 可以适当增加细节，以使行文连贯。 Hello, everyone! ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Thank you. 【答案】范文 Hello, everyone! I’m Li Hua, a student from Chenguang High School. It’s my pleasure to share with you my understanding of Chinese ancient poetry. Poetry, especially the ancient poetry, is more than just words on a page. It’s a window to our cultural heritage and a bridge to understand the depth of Chinese thought and feeling. To learn these poems well, I suggest that we immerse ourselves in the language, reading ancient poems over and over again, which can make it easy for us to understand it. Besides, we’d better learn some background information about the story and the author, helping us discover the hidden meaning the poem conveys. More importantly, it is beneficial to watch a popular TV program called Chinese Poetry Conference, where we can appreciate Chinese poetry, seek cultural genes and taste the beauty of life. I hope this event can ignite our love for Chinese poetry and bring us joy in learning ancient Chinese poetry. Thank you. 【解析】 【导语】本篇书面表达属于应用文。下周学校将与英国的友好学校举办一场在线交流活动，主题为“如何学好中国古诗词 (How to learn Chinese ancient poetry well)”。要求考生写一篇发言稿，说明如何学好中国古诗。 【详解】1.词汇积累 此外：besides→in addition 有益的：beneficial→rewarding 欣赏：appreciate→admire 点燃：ignite→light up 2.句式拓展 同义句转换 原句：It’s a window to our cultural heritage and a bridge to understand the depth of Chinese thought and feeling. 拓展句：Not only is it a window to our cultural heritage, but also it’s a bridge to understand the depth of Chinese thought and feeling. 【点睛】[高分句型1] To learn these poems well, I suggest that we immerse ourselves in the language, reading ancient poems over and over again, which can make it easy for us to understand it.

If you are considering this option for getting your degree, don’t forget to check out this gem. Rather than give the standard sales pitch, I will list the top reasons that I chose Western Governor’s University for my master’s degree. Lower tuition (学费) The tuition is lower than comparable online schools. Each term is six months long, giving me more time to complete the requirements for the term. In addition, if I finish early and still have time left in my term, I can do a part-time job to earn enough money for the schooling. I find this option to be very cost-effective. Flexible courses If I have learned enough either through life experience, on the job training, or in class, I can take the exam and skip the course. For example, I learned a great deal about special education law from working in the field, attended conferences, and took classes for my second bachelor’s degree. I was able to take the test, and pass, thus finishing the class quickly and focusing on other areas where I needed more studying time. Personal support I have a mentor (导师) assigned to me. My mentor is my contact person for questions and support. I get calls on a regular basis. We talk about where I am in my studies, what my next steps are, and any question I may have. I also have the online communities where I can go on the discussion with my schoolmates when I have questions. Respected degree I checked with the State Office of Education to find out if this was a good way to go. I learned that a degree from Western Governor’s University was a respected degree that is considered comparable to a degree from a traditional brick and mortar (灰泥) university. I am nearly finished with my degree from Western Governor’s University. I gain confidence in my abilities, and am very happy with my decision. 36. From this passage we lean that Western Governor’s University ________. A. is a key American university B. attracts a great number of students C. is a brick and mortar university D. is a good online university 37. How can the author get enough money for his schooling? A. He depends on his family’s support. B. He does a part-time job to pay for it. C. He studies hard to get scholarship. D. He has a good job and a good pay. 38. We can infer that the author ________. A. had received a bachelor’s degree before B. never went to university before C. wanted to study special education law D. only studied the courses he liked 39. How does the author get in touch with his mentor? A. He calls his mentor at regular time. B. His mentor calls him at regular intervals. C. He calls on his mentor every few days. D. He often talks with his mentor online. 40. The author writes the article ________. A. in order to let others know his studies and dream B. in order to make others go for online universities C. to use his experience to recommend his university D. to show what he has chosen is definitely sensible B In rural South Africa, 16 teams of women, all of us over 50 years old, participated in this inaugural (开幕的) event — the Grannies International Football Tournament. It was 13 years in the making, built on dreams and a friendship that crosses continents. The organizer, Beka Ntsanwisi — a well-known community activist and cancer survivor — founded the original team of soccer-playing grandmothers aged 40 to 80, some 15 years ago, to improve their health. At first the locals laughed at them and told them they belonged at home caring for their grandchildren. But a team doctor recorded results from their regular exercise: improved mobility, lowered blood pressure and better digestion. In 2010, the international spotlight landed the team an invitation to travel and play in a tournament in Massachusetts — from yours truly. Like the Grannies, I found soccer later in life and my Lexington, Massachusetts teammates are among my best friends. Beka replied to my invitation without hesitation: “We will come, my sister.” In July 2010, 15 Grannies streamed through the Boston airport. They wowed (博得称赞) us with their dancing on the sidelines of the field and their enthusiasm for life. And during that visit, Beka announced, “Before I die, I want to host a Grannies World Cup.” In March, 2023, Beka’s 13-year wish to host a Grannies international tournament was finally and joyfully met. The tournament, held in the town of Nkowankowa, was intense as France, Zambia, three South African teams, and all three U. S. teams entered the quarterfinals on the fourth and final day. My team would settle for second place, but the U. S. Breakers, also from Massachusetts, held the 3-foot-tall trophy (奖杯) in the air. The goalie (守门员) presented the trophy to Beka and the host Grannies team, without whom this event would never have taken place. We know Beka is the true champion. For me, the Grannies tournament was an extraordinary gift, an experience I will never forget. For all of us, we hold on to our memories of bonding with, our soccer sisters. 41. What can be implied from paragraph 1? A. It took long to make the tournament a reality. B. The tournament aims to help grannies make friends. C. These women’s teams consist of professional football players. D. The tournament caused a stir in the international football community. 42. What can we learn about the original team founded by Beka? A. It was 13 years in the making. B. It received support from the locals. C. It promoted the wellbeing of its members. D. It consisted of middle aged women players. 43. Why did the 15 Grannies fly to Boston in July 2010? A. To take part in a football competition. B. To perform at a football tournament. C. To share their football playing stories. D. To learn to play football professionally. 44. What did the goalie intend to do by gifting Beka the trophy? A. Honor Beka’s football skill. B. Share the joy of their success. C. Acknowledge Beka’s initiative. D. Declare victory for the host team. 45. What is the best title for the text? A. My Soccer Life with Grannies B. My Granny’s Enthusiasm for Soccer C. Inspired by Soccer: An International Tour D. Celebrating Grannies: A Global Soccer Event C When plates are set on the table, phones, rather than forks, are at the ready. At this point in our social media entanglement (纠缠)，the fact that the camera eats first is pretty much a given. Sure, some chefs, including Michelin rated star chefs, express their displeasure at this, but efforts to make the table a screen-free domain have mostly fallen flat. New research from Aston University has found that people are indeed influenced by the food photos that their friends post on social media. For example, for every serving of fruits and vegetables that a person thinks their friends are eating, they’ll eat one-fifth of a serving more. This number makes more sense within the context of the recommended “five a day”, meaning someone who’s being influenced would make a point of eating six portions of fruits or vegetables. Similarly, for every three portions of junk food that a person sees friends consuming on social media, they’ll eat an extra one. The researchers have suggested that social media can be very beneficial when it comes to people’s choices of food and their diets. Study supervisors Dr. Jason Thomas said, “The implication is that we can use social media as a tool to encourage each other’s eating choice within friendship groups, and use this knowledge as a tool for public health interventions.” Actually, the daily food situation is somewhat different from everything else posted on social media. People also desire to copy what they see but they need good social media literacy skills in order to grasp what’s realistic and what’s absurd. It is necessary to avoid the fake perfection of social media. It gets boring trying to figure out what to eat three times a day, week after week, so no wonder people want to take the path of least resistance and eat what their friends are eating. Unfortunately, most of what gets posted is the more time-consuming recipes or the attractively styled restaurant meals. By all means, keep your antennae (触角) out for new ideas, but gather them from food magazines, cookbooks, store flyers, reliable cooking websites, and recommended recipes from friends and family. 46. What phenomenon is talked about in Par.1? A. The influence of social media on people’s diet. B. People’s taking photos of food before eating. C. Chefs’ efforts to make the table screen-free. D. The pursuit of dining in fancy restaurant. 47. What’s the consequence of people’s seeing their friends’ online post? A. They’ll copy what their friends do. B. They’ll take junk food more seriously. C. They’ll consume more than their friends. D. They’ll care more about their friends’ eating habits. 48. What’s Dr. Jason Thomas’s attitude towards social media? A. Positive. B. Doubtful. C. Concerned. D. Unclear. 49. What might people referring to others’ diets be advised to do? A. Form their own diet styles. B. Find the similarities among others’ diets. C. Avoid aiming for perfection in daily meals. D. Enhance their critical thinking and skepticism. 50. What does the author intend to do in the last paragraph? A. Point out the unreality of social media. B. Call on people to enrich their knowledge in cooking. C. Introduce the general classification of food posted online. D. Encourage people to broaden their sources of food inspiration. D Picture this: you are running late to drop your kids off at school in the morning. On top of this, it is pouring rain outside. While you are driving down the highway, another car cuts you off. You begin to think they must be a rude person who is also a terrible driver. A couple of minutes later, you, yourself accidentally cut off someone. You inform yourself your action is a result of the fact that you are late for your child’s drop-off and you cannot see well because of the rain. Why is it that we automatically assume others’ negative actions are a result of who they are as a person while giving ourselves excuses? The actor-observer bias (偏差) is an explanation for this confusing phenomenon. When you explain someone’s behavior based on internal factors, like assuming the person who cuts you off is a rude person, but attribute (归因于) your own behavior to external situational factors, you are engaging in the actor-observer bias. So why does the actor-observer effect occur? The general explanation is that it occurs as a defense mechanism for maintaining high personal dignity. We would rather believe that our faults come from factors we cannot control because then we cannot change them and it is easier for us to accept the outcome. The actor-observer bias is the cause of many arguments between the actor and the observer as a result of a misunderstanding of the effect of external and internal factors. How can we stop thinking this way and become more sympathetic to the people around us? This is where it gets tricky because the observer’ s internal attributions are an automatic process which means they occur almost immediately and unconsciously (无意识地). In order to become more sympathetic towards surrounding people in situations, we must make the attributions a controlled process. A controlled process is when the observer purposely focuses attention on something and is consciously aware of the process, unlike an automatic process. Knowing what the actor-observer effect is and how it can influence your own attributions is a good step toward becoming more sympathetic and kinder to people you interact with. 51. How would we define the other driver’s behavior in paragraph 1? A. An emotional outburst. B. A display of bad manners. C. A moment of carelessness. D. An unavoidable circumstance. 52. Why do we fall for the actor-observer bias? A. To safeguard our self-image. B. To avoid arguments with others. C. To promote sympathy towards others. D. To ensure fairness in interpersonal interactions. 53. What is the basic reason behind the difficulty in stopping the observer’s internal attribution behaviors? A. They can’t totally be controlled. B. They maintain people’s dignity. C. They happen without people being aware of it. D. People don’t know about the actor-observer effect. 54. How might an observer be more considerate to an actor’s actions? A. By focusing on the situational factors. B. By making the attribution process automatic. C. By attributing these actions to internal factors. D. By imagining themselves in the same situations. 55. What is the best title for the text? A. Why we repeat our mistakes. B. How we can stop blaming others. C. What is the science of social justice. D. Why we always ignore our own faults. 第Ⅱ卷(非选择题 共35分) 第三部分：写作(共两节； 满分35分) 第一节：阅读表达(共5小题； 每小题2分，满分10分) 阅读表达 My dad told me that when I was two years old, I said I was going to be the next Michael Jordan. My dad took my wish seriously. One day when I was 3, he asked, “Do you want to be the next Michael Jordan and are you willing to do any amount of workouts in order to achieve this — whether it’s windy or snowy?” I nodded. Then he handed a piece of paper to me, and warned, “This will be one serious promise.” He gestured for me to sign my signature on the paper. Unknown about what he had written on the paper, I sensed the seriousness of the moment. The next early morning, my father pushed me to the driveway for playing basketball. “First,” he instructed, “we will start with the art of dribbling (运球).” I looked at him, unsure if he was serious, and threw the basketball with both hands back to him as he began to instruct me. I stood out in that driveway for three hours that morning. Never had I felt more tired in my three years of life. Every time my attention began to wander, my father would harshly drag me back to the present. I was beginning to repent of my decision to be the female version of Michael Jordan a little bit. In the following mornings, my dad dragged me out to the driveway to continually coach me. Each time I wanted to give up, he would take my signed piece of paper, telling me that I couldn’t take back my words then. By the age of ten, after approximately 7,350 hours, my dad predicted my skill was better than my peers’ in the state. My dad began telling me that being a world-class expert required 10,000 hours of practice. Then I had a new goal. One tough day, when I was fourteen, at the end of our practice session, my dad said, “Congratulations!” That evening, we had a party, with a basketball-shaped cake with the number10,000. During the party, my dad asked, “So are you going to quit now?” I smiled, “Never! WNBA, here I come.” 56. What promise did the author make by putting her signature on the paper?
