He had already had his first show at a local art center, showcasing his series titled “Dispositions”, which illustrated his own growth during adolescence (青少年). Yet he wanted more — specifically to start showing his work in a juried exhibition, where a group of art experts would evaluate and select pieces in a competitive review process. That’s when he hit an obstacle, discovering in the very last line of a multi- page application that the minimum age for submission was 18. That rejection became a motivation for creation. “I thought it’d be really cool if I could provide the opportunity to more young artists,” says Nalin, now 15. With the support of his parents, in January 2023, Nalin rented a storefront and founded Little EGG Gallery, which is now profitable enough to make ends meet by charging a small hanging fee for any displayed work. In turn, Little EGG helps promote young talent by showcasing their work. Not long after opening, David Griffin, a professor and artist of Ontario College of Art and Design University stepped into the gallery and met Nalin. Griffin regards him as someone special: “a strong young artist with a really excellent idea — creating a space for showing the natural genius of young people. It was a void (空白) in the art world.” There Nalin asked Griffin to help judge an upcoming competition. The first juried show was last spring, and five- year - old Jack Gamble won for his abstract painting titled Pokemon. As Nalin was busy with school, life and his own art, Little EGG is mostly open by appointment only, but he’s still committed to growing it with seasonal and themed shows scheduled a few times a year. 4. What do we know about Nalin Kamat from the first two paragraphs? A. He drew teenagers’ growth in his work. B. He became a working artist when aged 13. C. He was disqualified for a juried exhibition. D. He showed his series at the capital art center. 5. Why did Nalin decide to set up Little EGG Gallery? A. To promote artists by showcasing their work. B To form the connection between different galleries. C. To expand his own business through themed shows. D. To show young artists’ talent by offering them a stage. 6. Which of the following can best describe Nalin’s idea of opening the gallery? A. Pioneering. B. Short-lived. C. Popular. D. Unpromising. 7. What kind of person is Nalin Kamat according to the text? A. Helpful and cautious. B. Devoted and creative. C. Humorous and intelligent. D. Knowledgeable and ambitious. 【答案】4. C 5. D 6. A 7. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了15岁的多伦多青少年纳林·卡马特因为无法参加评审展览而受挫，但这激发了他为更多年轻艺术家提供展示机会的决心。在父母的支持下，他创办了Little EGG Gallery的故事。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段“That’s when he hit an obstacle, discovering in the very last line of a multi- page application that the minimum age for submission was 18.(就在那时，他遇到了一个障碍，在一份多页申请表的最后一行发现提交作品的最低年龄是18岁。)”可知，Nalin Kamat因为年龄问题而被取消了参加评审展览的资格。故选C。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第三段““I thought it’d be really cool if I could provide the opportunity to more young artists,” says Nalin, now 15. With the support of his parents, in January 2023, Nalin rented a storefront and founded Little EGG Gallery, which is now profitable enough to make ends meet by charging a small hanging fee for any displayed work.(“我想，如果我能为更多的年轻艺术家提供机会，那就太棒了，”现年15岁的纳林说。在父母的支持下，纳林于2023年1月租了一个店面，并创办了Little EGG Gallery，现在这家画廊通过向任何展示的作品收取小额悬挂费，已经足够盈利来维持生计了。)”可知，他创办Little EGG Gallery的目的是为了给年轻艺术家提供一个展示才华的舞台。故选D。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第三段“That rejection became a motivation for creation. “I thought it’d be really cool if I could provide the opportunity to more young artists,” says Nalin, now 15. With the support of his parents, in January 2023, Nalin rented a storefront and founded Little EGG Gallery(那次拒绝成为了他创作的动力。“我想，如果我能为更多的年轻艺术家提供机会，那就太棒了，”现年15岁的纳林说。在父母的支持下，纳林于2023年1月租了一个店面，并创办了Little EGG Gallery。)”根据第四段“a strong young artist with a really excellent idea — creating a space for showing the natural genius of young people. It was a void ( 空白) in the art world.”（一个有着非常优秀想法的强大年轻艺术家——为展示年轻人的天才创造了一个空间。这是艺术界的一个空白）可知，Nalin想要为更多的年轻艺术家提供机会，于是他租了一个店面并创办了Little EGG Gallery，这是一个创新的想法，因此可以用pioneering（开创性的）来形容他的想法。故选A。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第一段“By the time Nalin Kamat was 13, the Toronto teen was well on his way to becoming a working artist.(到纳林·卡马特13岁时，这位多伦多少年已经踏上了成为职业艺术家的道路。)”、根据文章第二段“That’s when he hit an obstacle, discovering in the very last line of a multi- page application that the minimum age for submission was 18.(就在那时，他遇到了一个障碍，在一份多页申请表的最后一行发现提交作品的最低年龄是18岁。)”和文章第三段“That rejection became a motivation for creation. “I thought it’d be really cool if I could provide the opportunity to more young artists,” says Nalin, now 15. With the support of his parents, in January 2023, Nalin rented a storefront and founded Little EGG Gallery(那次拒绝成为了他创作的动力。“我想，如果我能为更多的年轻艺术家提供机会，那就太棒了，”现年15岁的纳林说。在父母的支持下，纳林于2023年1月租了一个店面，并创办了Little EGG Gallery。)”可知，Nalin Kamat在13岁时就举办了自己的画展，并且因为无法参加评审展览而创办了Little EGG Gallery，展示年轻艺术家的作品。这些行为表明他是一个有创造力和奉献精神的人，因此选项B：Devoted and creative(有奉献精神和创造力的)最符合他的特点。故选B。 C As this year’s graduates prepare to step into the workplace, many are either anxious or scared about the impact of artificial intelligence — particularly large language models such as ChatGPT — on their careers. According to a vote by the BestColleges website, six in ten US college students worry that the use of AI in their studies is lowering the value of earning a degree. Even worse, more than half expect that increasing use of AI in the workplace will further devalue the worth of their studies to potential employers. Fears are very common that women, who are not enough in computing and science degrees, will be kept out of the job market. Right now, company technology departments are mostly male. But the impact of AI on employability may be quite different outside of computer programming, some employers say. The rise of AI is already creating new opportunities for students who have studied liberal subjects (文科). This is particularly true for writing-intensive subjects, such as English and history, that draw more female students than technology and require students to pull together diverse sources of information. That is because the companies that are starting to use AI to deal with customers are hiring writers to produce scripts for chatbots to use. Once graduated, both genders also worry that AI could reshape the job market for entry level work. Early experiments in the economic and professional services industries do suggest that AI tools will change the way marketing, investment banking and legal documents are created. Those changes could free junior employees from boring work. But the more work that is turned over to AI, the fewer jobs will be needed. And most of these jobs now use an apprenticeship (学徒) way, where doing the simple work gives young employees a good place for more important work. Some also worry that the focus on tech will hit workplace diversity efforts. “It is automation at a completely different level, which is why I’m concerned about women. My biggest fear is that women will fall behind again,” says Roya Rahmani, chair of Delphos International, which provides investment markets advisory services. 8. What can we know from the first three paragraphs? A. It may be harder for graduates to find a job. B. It is certain that more women will lose jobs. C. The use of AI makes a degree more valuable. D. The impact of AI gives the graduates more hope. 9. Why do liberal arts students have new opportunities? A. The companies need to deal with customers. B. They are good at gathering diverse information. C. They may have an advantage of writing scripts. D. The subjects they learn are all writing-intensive. 10. What is the concern about the job market for entry level work? A. AI will make the job market more diverse. B. AI will transform the way some work is done. C. AI will make the boring work more interesting. D. AI will give more opportunities to junior employees. 11. What does Roya Rahmani worry about? A. The decrease of workplace diversity. B. The influence of AI on women’s careers. C. The lack of apprenticeship chances for women. D. The application of AI in the investment markets. 【答案】8. A 9. C 10. B 11. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了人工智能可能导致毕业生找工作更加困难的问题。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“According to a vote by the BestColleges website, six in ten US college students worry that the use of AI in their studies is lowering the value of earning a degree. Even worse, more than half expect that increasing use of AI in the workplace will further devalue the worth of their studies to potential employers.(根据BestColleges网站的一项投票，60%的美国大学生担心，在学习中使用人工智能会降低获得学位的价值。更糟糕的是，超过一半的人预计，在工作场所越来越多地使用人工智能，将进一步降低他们的学习对潜在雇主的价值)”可知，毕业生找工作可能会更难。故选A。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“The rise of AI is already creating new opportunities for students who have studied liberal subjects (文科). This is particularly true for writing-intensive subjects, such as English and history, that draw more female students than technology and require students to pull together diverse sources of information. That is because the companies that are starting to use AI to deal with customers are hiring writers to produce scripts for chatbots to use.(人工智能的兴起已经为学习人文学科的学生创造了新的机会。对于英语和历史等需要大量写作的学科来说尤其如此，这些学科吸引的女学生多于科技，而且要求学生将各种信息来源整合在一起。这是因为那些开始使用人工智能与客户打交道的公司正在雇佣作家来编写脚本，供聊天机器人使用)”可知，文科生有新的机会是因为他们可能有写剧本的优势。故选C。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段“Once graduated, both genders also worry that AI could reshape the job market for entry level work. Early experiments in the economic and professional services industries do suggest that AI tools will change the way marketing, investment banking and legal documents are created.(毕业后，男女都担心人工智能可能会重塑入门级工作的就业市场。经济和专业服务行业的早期实验确实表明，人工智能工具将改变营销、投资银行和法律文件的创建方式)”可知，入门级工作的就业市场担忧在于，人工智能将改变一些工作的完成方式。故选B。 【11题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段““It is automation at a completely different level, which is why I’m concerned about women. My biggest fear is that women will fall behind again,” says Roya Rahmani, chair of Delphos International, which provides investment markets advisory services.(“这是一种完全不同程度的自动化，这就是我担心女性的原因。我最担心的是，女性将再次落后，”提供投资市场咨询服务的德尔福国际董事长罗亚•拉赫马尼表示)”可知，罗亚·拉赫马尼担心人工智能对女性职业的影响。故选B。 D We all notice bright colors. People who choose to go eye-catching, whether they express themselves through clothes or accessories (配饰), hear everything from “No one is going to miss you at the party” to “I would never have the courage to wear that.” But according to research, those comments may be both accurate and expected. Adam D. Pazda and Christopher A. Thorstenson (2019) examined how we perceive people at first impression who wear bright colors. They specifically examined the effect of chroma (色度). They found that targets, both male and female, who were wearing or surrounded by high-chroma colors were perceived as more open and outgoing than in a low-chroma setting. They concluded that chroma is a variable of perception that can influence first impressions of personality. Drilling down further, they found that high-chroma colors strengthened viewer perspective of openness and extraversion (外向), but not other personalities. These observations are important because some job responsibilities capitalize on some of the personalities inferred through bright colors. Pazda and Thorstenson recognize what job seekers no doubt consider as they look for a career to match their personal nature: in some occupations, success is fueled by possessing certain personality qualities. They give examples of industries such as sales and marketing as well as customer service as fields where extraverts thrive (繁荣). Accordingly, applicants for these positions may be viewed more favorably and judged as more competent if they wear highly chromatic clothing. Regarding the generality of their results, Pazda and Thorstenson note that one of the limitations of their study was their use of participants living in the United States, which means their findings may not predict results in other cultures. They note the possibility that chroma may influence the perception of personality differently in non-Western countries, and that high-chroma clothing may be perceived as at odds with social norms in other cultures. The practical takeaway, at least in the United States, appears to be that bright colors, like the peacock’s tail, will get you noticed. But depending on your goals, consider tailoring your chroma to the circumstances, personally and professionally. 12. What is the focus of the study mentioned in the passage? A. The cultural implications of high chroma colors. B. The influence of clothing on viewer perceptions. C. The connection between clothing and job suitability. D The impact of high chroma colors on first impression. 13. What does the underlined phrase “capitalize on” in paragraph 4 probably mean? A. Draw on. B. Approve of. C. Subscribe to. D. Dig up. 14. Which might be a limitation of the study? A. The culturally specific findings. B. The unmonitored research process. C. The outdated data analysis methods. D. The relatively insufficient theoretical basis. 15. What is the practical advice given by the author in the last paragraph? A. Reserve bright colors for social events. B. Always wear bright colors to be noticed. C. Avoid bright colors in professional settings. D. Use bright colors strategically based on your goals. 【答案】12. D 13. A 14. A 15. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。主要探讨了穿着鲜艳颜色对第一印象的影响，介绍了有关研究的开展以及研究的发现。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“Adam D. Pazda and Christopher A. Thorstenson (2019) examined how we perceive people at firs1impression who wear bright colors. They specifically examined the effect of chroma (色度).( Adam D. Pazda和Christopher A. Thorstenson（2019）研究了我们如何看待穿亮色衣服的人的第一印象。他们专门研究了色度的影响)”可知，文章中提到的研究重点是高色度色彩对第一印象的影响。故选D。 【13题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线词上文“Drilling down further, they found that high-chroma colors strengthened viewer perspective of openness and extraversion (外向), but not other personalities.(进一步深入研究，他们发现高色度的颜色增强了观看者对开放性和外向性的看法，但对其他性格没有作用)”可知，上文提到研究人员发现高色度的颜色增强了观看者对开放性和外向性的看法，但对其他性格没有作用，说明一些工作职责利用了通过鲜艳的颜色推断出的一些个性。故划线词意思是“利用”draw on。故选A。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“Regarding the generality of their results, Pazda and Thorstenson note that one of the limitations of their study was their use of participants living in the United States, which means their findings may not predict results in other cultures.(关于他们研究结果的普遍性，Pazda和Thorstenson指出，他们研究的局限性之一是他们使用了生活在美国的参与者，这意味着他们的研究结果可能无法预测其他文化的结果)”可知，特定文化的发现可能是这项研究的局限性。故选A。 【15题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“But depending on your goals, consider tailoring your chroma to the circumstances, personally and professionally.(但是根据你的目标，考虑根据个人和专业的情况来调整你的色度)”可知，作者在最后一段给出的实用建议是根据你的目标策略性地使用明亮的颜色。故选D。 第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5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。 Get lucky!

Feeling sad for the bird, Albert petted it gently and wanted to help it, but he didn’t know how since he was just 7 years old. So he took the bird in his hands, carried it carefully home and showed it to his parents. At once, his parents took action. They washed the bird and found it injured. With the help of his parents, Albert dressed the wound. But it would need time and care for the bird to completely recover. As the bird had become dear to his heart, Albert immediately offered to care for the bird. Albert named his new friend “Lucky”. He began to feed the bird and he even ran out to collect grass to build a soft nest for the bird. Then, he put the nest beside his bed. Albert and the bird were sleeping together and living together. Soon they became close friends. Albert always told it about his experiences in school and his secrets. Lucky, an extremely patient audience, usually responded to him with a few nods and chirps (叽叽喳喳声). Albert’s parents also loved Lucky. They regarded it as a family member. In the course of time, Lucky gradually recovered and started to hop (脚跳) and jump a little bit and exercise its wings. That made everyone happier. Soon it would be able to fly. How wonderful! But what then? Albert became thoughtful and started to think. “If Lucky started to fly, it could simply fly away one day.” But that would not happen. Albert loved his friend so much that he couldn’t imagine parting with it. He wondered, “I should surely stay with Lucky forever. But how? Keep the windows closed all the time? That was not practical.” 注意：1. 续写词数应为150个左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Then, he bought a small cage and kept Lucky in it. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Knowing the bad situation, Albert’s parents decided to help Lucky and their son. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】Then, he bought a small cage and kept Lucky in it. In the beginning, Lucky seemed fine inside it. He believed he had made the right choice to keep Lucky close and secure. However, as time passed, things took a turn for the worse. After a fully recovery, Lucky wanted to spread its wings and fly in the sky. When all its attempts failed, what Lucky could do was sitting inside the little cage and squawking sadly. Several days later, Lucky refused to eat and drink. Worried and confused, he didn’t know what to do about it. Knowing the bad situation, Albert’s parents decided to help Lucky and their son. They told their son, “If you really love Lucky, you should think of how to make it happy.” After careful consideration, Albert opened both his heart and the cage. Lucky was released and flew away. Two weeks later, a wonderful thing happened: Lucky returned, flying around Albert and chirped happily, seeming to say thanks to him. This had happened from time to time since then. Instead of losing a forced friend, Albert had made a permanent one. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开。讲述了一个小男孩偶遇受伤的小鸟并把它带回家悉心照顾，在小鸟痊愈之后，小男孩不想失去他的这位好朋友，便把小鸟关在了笼子里，失去了自由的小鸟变越来越伤心，最终在父母的开导下，小男孩给予了小鸟自由。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“然后，他买了一个小笼子，把Lucky关在里面。”可知，第一段可描小鸟在笼子里的状况和小男孩的不知所措。 ②由第二段首句内容“知道了这个糟糕的情况，男孩的父母决定帮助Lucky和他们的儿子”可知，第二段可描写在父母的开导下，男孩给予小鸟自由，小鸟时常飞回来，他们成了永久的朋友。 2.续写线索：做出决定——把小鸟关进笼子——小鸟伤心——小男孩不知所措——父母决定帮忙——给予小鸟自由——小鸟回来，小男孩高兴 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①展翅：spread its wings / stretch its wings / extend its wings ②.拒绝：refuse / reject ③.返回：return / go back / get back 情绪类 ①.伤心地：sadly / sorrowfully ②.感谢：thanks / appreciation / gratitude 【点睛】[高分句型1].

He had already had his first show at a local art center, showcasing his series titled “Dispositions”, which illustrated his own growth during adolescence (青少年). Yet he wanted more — specifically to start showing his work in a juried exhibition, where a group of art experts would evaluate and select pieces in a competitive review process. That’s when he hit an obstacle, discovering in the very last line of a multi- page application that the minimum age for submission was 18. That rejection became a motivation for creation. “I thought it’d be really cool if I could provide the opportunity to more young artists,” says Nalin, now 15. With the support of his parents, in January 2023, Nalin rented a storefront and founded Little EGG Gallery, which is now profitable enough to make ends meet by charging a small hanging fee for any displayed work. In turn, Little EGG helps promote young talent by showcasing their work. Not long after opening, David Griffin, a professor and artist of Ontario College of Art and Design University stepped into the gallery and met Nalin. Griffin regards him as someone special: “a strong young artist with a really excellent idea — creating a space for showing the natural genius of young people. It was a void (空白) in the art world.” There Nalin asked Griffin to help judge an upcoming competition. The first juried show was last spring, and five- year - old Jack Gamble won for his abstract painting titled Pokemon. As Nalin was busy with school, life and his own art, Little EGG is mostly open by appointment only, but he’s still committed to growing it with seasonal and themed shows scheduled a few times a year. 4. What do we know about Nalin Kamat from the first two paragraphs? A. He drew teenagers’ growth in his work. B. He became a working artist when aged 13. C. He was disqualified for a juried exhibition. D. He showed his series at the capital art center. 5. Why did Nalin decide to set up Little EGG Gallery? A. To promote artists by showcasing their work. B. To form the connection between different galleries. C. To expand his own business through themed shows. D. To show young artists’ talent by offering them a stage. 6 Which of the following can best describe Nalin’s idea of opening the gallery? A. Pioneering. B. Short-lived. C. Popular. D. Unpromising. 7. What kind of person is Nalin Kamat according to the text? A. Helpful and cautious. B. Devoted and creative. C. Humorous and intelligent. D. Knowledgeable and ambitious. C As this year’s graduates prepare to step into the workplace, many are either anxious or scared about the impact of artificial intelligence — particularly large language models such as ChatGPT — on their careers. According to a vote by the BestColleges website, six in ten US college students worry that the use of AI in their studies is lowering the value of earning a degree. Even worse, more than half expect that increasing use of AI in the workplace will further devalue the worth of their studies to potential employers. Fears are very common that women, who are not enough in computing and science degrees, will be kept out of the job market. Right now, company technology departments are mostly male. But the impact of AI on employability may be quite different outside of computer programming, some employers say. The rise of AI is already creating new opportunities for students who have studied liberal subjects (文科). This is particularly true for writing-intensive subjects, such as English and history, that draw more female students than technology and require students to pull together diverse sources of information. That is because the companies that are starting to use AI to deal with customers are hiring writers to produce scripts for chatbots to use. Once graduated, both genders also worry that AI could reshape the job market for entry level work. Early experiments in the economic and professional services industries do suggest that AI tools will change the way marketing, investment banking and legal documents are created. Those changes could free junior employees from boring work. But the more work that is turned over to AI, the fewer jobs will be needed. And most of these jobs now use an apprenticeship (学徒) way, where doing the simple work gives young employees a good place for more important work. Some also worry that the focus on tech will hit workplace diversity efforts. “It is automation at a completely different level, which is why I’m concerned about women. My biggest fear is that women will fall behind again,” says Roya Rahmani, chair of Delphos International, which provides investment markets advisory services. 8. What can we know from the first three paragraphs? A. It may be harder for graduates to find a job. B. It is certain that more women will lose jobs. C. The use of AI makes a degree more valuable. D. The impact of AI gives the graduates more hope. 9. Why do liberal arts students have new opportunities? A. The companies need to deal with customers. B. They are good at gathering diverse information. C. They may have an advantage of writing scripts. D. The subjects they learn are all writing-intensive. 10. What is the concern about the job market for entry level work? A. AI will make the job market more diverse. B. AI will transform the way some work is done. C AI will make the boring work more interesting. D. AI will give more opportunities to junior employees. 11. What does Roya Rahmani worry about? A. The decrease of workplace diversity. B. The influence of AI on women’s careers. C. The lack of apprenticeship chances for women. D. The application of AI in the investment markets. D We all notice bright colors. People who choose to go eye-catching, whether they express themselves through clothes or accessories (配饰), hear everything from “No one is going to miss you at the party” to “I would never have the courage to wear that.” But according to research, those comments may be both accurate and expected. Adam D. Pazda and Christopher A. Thorstenson (2019) examined how we perceive people at first impression who wear bright colors. They specifically examined the effect of chroma (色度). They found that targets, both male and female, who were wearing or surrounded by high-chroma colors were perceived as more open and outgoing than in a low-chroma setting. They concluded that chroma is a variable of perception that can influence first impressions of personality. Drilling down further they found that high-chroma colors strengthened viewer perspective of openness and extraversion (外向), but not other personalities. These observations are important because some job responsibilities capitalize on some of the personalities inferred through bright colors. Pazda and Thorstenson recognize what job seekers no doubt consider as they look for a career to match their personal nature: in some occupations, success is fueled by possessing certain personality qualities. They give examples of industries such as sales and marketing as well as customer service as fields where extraverts thrive (繁荣). Accordingly, applicants for these positions may be viewed more favorably and judged as more competent if they wear highly chromatic clothing. Regarding the generality of their results, Pazda and Thorstenson note that one of the limitations of their study was their use of participants living in the United States, which means their findings may not predict results in other cultures. They note the possibility that chroma may influence the perception of personality differently in non-Western countries, and that high-chroma clothing may be perceived as at odds with social norms in other cultures. The practical takeaway, at least in the United States, appears to be that bright colors, like the peacock’s tail, will get you noticed. But depending on your goals, consider tailoring your chroma to the circumstances, personally and professionally. 12. What is the focus of the study mentioned in the passage? A. The cultural implications of high chroma colors. B. The influence of clothing on viewer perceptions. C. The connection between clothing and job suitability. D. The impact of high chroma colors on first impression. 13. What does the underlined phrase “capitalize on” in paragraph 4 probably mean? A. Draw on. B. Approve of. C. Subscribe to. D. Dig up. 14. Which might be a limitation of the study? A. The culturally specific findings. B. The unmonitored research process. C. The outdated data analysis methods. D. The relatively insufficient theoretical basis. 15. What is the practical advice given by the author in the last paragraph? A. Reserve bright colors for social events. B. Always wear bright colors to be noticed. C. Avoid bright colors in professional settings. D. Use bright colors strategically based on your goals. 第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5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。 Get lucky!

Feeling sad for the bird, Albert petted it gently and wanted to help it, but he didn’t know how since he was just 7 years old. So he took the bird in his hands, carried it carefully home and showed it to his parents. At once, his parents took action. They washed the bird and found it injured. With the help of his parents, Albert dressed the wound. But it would need time and care for the bird to completely recover. As the bird had become dear to his heart, Albert immediately offered to care for the bird. Albert named his new friend “Lucky”. He began to feed the bird and he even ran out to collect grass to build a soft nest for the bird. Then, he put the nest beside his bed. Albert and the bird were sleeping together and living together. Soon they became close friends. Albert always told it about his experiences in school and his secrets. Lucky, an extremely patient audience, usually responded to him with a few nods and chirps (叽叽喳喳声). Albert’s parents also loved Lucky. They regarded it as a family member. In the course of time, Lucky gradually recovered and started to hop (脚跳) and jump a little bit and exercise its wings. That made everyone happier. Soon it would be able to fly. How wonderful! But what then? Albert became thoughtful and started to think. “If Lucky started to fly, it could simply fly away one day.” But that would not happen. Albert loved his friend so much that he couldn’t imagine parting with it. He wondered, “I should surely stay with Lucky forever. But how? Keep the windows closed all the time? That was not practical.” 注意：1. 续写词数应为150个左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Then, he bought a small cage and kept Lucky in it. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Knowing the bad situation, Albert’s parents decided to help Lucky and their son. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 听力: CBABA ABBAB ACCAB CBACA 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
