Most of my peers (同龄人) had picked out their majors and some even planned their careers. But I was still wondering about that. I’ve always enjoyed writing but didn’t know how to make a career out of it. After researching my options, such as journalism, I thought Professional Communications could improve my writing skills and lead me to a career in business. With that, I sent in my application, was accepted and started preparing for my first term of university. When course intentions rolled around, I began looking at the list of minors. Marketing caught my attention. It would complement (补充) my communications degree while providing me with the necessary business courses that were outside of the program. Without hesitation, I scheduled marketing into my studies, with the goal of using that newfound knowledge to accompany the technical skills that my major would provide me with. My school year began in a pretty typical way: the orientation week (迎新周), joining clubs and meeting new people. As time went on, I found myself enjoying the marketing courses more than the communications courses, and it was then that I first began to consider making a change. Finally, I spoke with a friend who had switched to a different major, and his words of encouragement were the final push I needed to go through with the decision. A few days later, I sent in my application, and soon I received my acceptance letter. I’ve now been gifted with a wonderful start to the year, and I couldn’t be happier about making the change. I feel less pressured to “find myself” and can put 110% effort into my studies. A note to high school students: University brings with it a load of new beginnings and self-reflection. It’s perfectly fine to come into university thinking you want one thing and finding out along the way that it might not be the right path for you. 4. Why was the author at a loss after high school? A. She suffered from a lack of confidence. B. She fell behind her peers in performance. C. She was afraid to choose a wrong university. D. She struggled to decide a future direction. 5. Which aspect of marketing attracted the author? A. Its business courses. B. Its exciting career opportunities. C. Its stress on technical skills. D. Its courses related to writing. 6. What led the author to think about changing her major? A. The active encouragement from a friend. B. Reduced interest in communications. C. The growing passion for marketing courses. D. Access to numerous new opportunities. 7. What does the author advise high school students to do? A. Think twice about major selection. B. Be open to changing academic paths. C. Concentrate all their efforts on study. D Engage in self-reflection consistently. 【答案】4. D 5. A 6. C 7. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者在高中毕业后选专业和大学期间更换专业的心路历程。作者通过自身经历告诉读者，大学不仅是学术学习场所，更是个人探索和自我发现的舞台，鼓励学生在大学期间探索和发现适合自己的道路。 【4题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段中的“High school ended and all I remembered was feeling stuck. Most of my peers (同龄人) had picked out their majors and some even planned their careers. But I was still wondering about that. (高中结束了，我只记得被困住了。我的大多数同龄人都选择了自己的专业，有些人甚至计划了自己的职业生涯。但我仍对此感到疑惑。)”可知，作者在高中毕业后感到迷茫主要是因为她在确定未来方向上遇到了难题。故选D项。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中的“It would complement (补充) my communications degree while providing me with the necessary business courses that were outside of the program. Without hesitation, I scheduled marketing into my studies, with the goal of using that newfound knowledge to accompany the technical skills that my major would provide me with. (它将补充我的沟通学位，同时为我提供课程之外的必要商业课程。我毫不犹豫地将市场营销纳入我的学习计划，目的是利用新学到的知识来配合我的专业将为我提供的技术技能。)”可知，作者认为市场营销能够作为她传播学学位的补充，同时也能提供课程之外的必要的商业知识，也就是说市场营销对作者的吸引力主要在于它的商业课程。故选A项。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中的“As time went on, I found myself enjoying the marketing courses more than the communications courses, and it was then that I first began to consider making a change. (随着时间的推移，我发现自己更喜欢营销课程而不是沟通课程，就在那时，我第一次开始考虑做出改变。)”可知，作者在大学期间发现自己更喜欢营销课程，而不是最初选择的传播学课程，这促使作者考虑转专业。故选C项。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“It’s perfectly fine to come into university thinking you want one thing and finding out along the way that it might not be the right path for you. (进入大学时，你认为自己想要一件事，但一路上发现这可能不是你的正确选择，这是完全可以的。)”以及结合作者转专业的经历及其对待转专业的态度“I couldn’t be happier about making the change (做出改变，我高兴极了)”可推断，作者建议高中生对在大学中改变初衷或者改变学术道路（转专业）持开放态度。故选B项。 C Microplastics are found nearly everywhere on Earth and can be harmful to animals if they’re taken in. But it’s hard to remove such tiny particles (微粒) from the environment, especially once they settle into corners and cracks at the bottom of waterways. Now, researchers in ACS’ Nano Letters have created a light-activated fish robot that “swims” around quickly, picking up and removing microplastics from the environment. Because microplastics can fall into cracks, they’ve been hard to remove from water environments. One solution that has been proposed is using small, flexible (柔韧的), and self-propelled robots to reach these pollutants and clean them up. But the traditional materials used for soft robots can be damaged easily in water environments. Another material called mother-of-pearl, also known as nacre, is strong and flexible, and is found on the inside surface of shells. Inspired by this natural substance, Xinxing Zhang and his colleagues wanted to try a similar type of gradient structure to create a durable (耐用的) and bendable material for soft robots. Using the material, the researchers have created a fish robot that could move 2.67 body lengths per second — a speed that’s faster than previously reported for other soft swimming robots. The researchers showed that the swimming fish robot could repeatedly take in nearby microplastics and transport them elsewhere. The material could also recover itself after being cut, still keeping its ability to take in microplastics. Because of the durability and speed of the fish robot, the researchers say that it could be used for monitoring microplastics and other pollutants in tough water environments. 8. Why are microplastics hard to remove? A. Because they are hard to find. B. Because there are no tools to use. C. Because they are in large quantities. D. Because they are too small and hide in corners and cracks. 9. Which is a disadvantage of traditional materials? A. Difficult to store. B. Rare to find. C. Easy to damage. D. Expensive to produce. 10. What mainly makes the fish robot suitable for monitoring microplastics? A. Its durability. B. Its size. C. Its weight. D. Its shape. 11. Where is the text likely from? A. A fiction. B. A magazine. C. A film. D. A diary. 【答案】8. D 9. C 10. A 11. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了研究人员研发了一种由光驱动的鱼形机器人，该机器人能快速游动清除水生环境中的微塑料。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“But it’s hard to remove such tiny particles (微粒) from the environment, especially once they settle into corners and cracks at the bottom of waterways. (但是很难从环境中去除如此微小的颗粒，特别是一旦它们进入水道底部的角落和裂缝)”可知，微塑料难以从环境中清除的原因是它们体积微小，而且会沉积在水道的角落和裂缝中。故选D项。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“But the traditional materials used for soft robots can be damaged easily in water environments. (但是用于软体机器人的传统材料在水环境中容易损坏)”可知，用于软体机器人的传统材料的劣势是容易在水环境中受损。故选C项。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“The material could also recover itself after being cut, still keeping its ability to take in microplastics. Because of the durability and speed of the fish robot, the researchers say that it could be used for monitoring microplastics and other pollutants in tough water environments. (这种材料在被切割后还可以自我恢复，仍然保持吸收微塑料的能力。研究人员表示，由于鱼形机器人的耐用性和速度，它可以用于监测恶劣水环境中的微塑料和其他污染物)”可知，鱼形机器人的耐用性使其适合在复杂的水环境中监测和清除微塑料。故选A项。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。通读全文，尤其是第一段中“Now, researchers in ACS’ Nano Letters have created a light-activated fish robot that “swims” around quickly, picking up and removing microplastics from the environment. (现在，ACS的《纳米快报》的研究人员创造了一种由光驱动的鱼形机器人，它能快速地“游泳”，从环境中捡起并去除微塑料)”可知，文章主要介绍了研究人员研发的一款由光驱动的鱼形机器人，呈现了研发背景和研发成果，范畴属于科学研究和技术创新。由此推知，文章应该选自科技类杂志。故选B项。 D Parkinson’s is a progressive brain disease which leads to shaky hands and slow movement, and there is no cure. Tai Chi, a traditional Chinese martial art that combines (结合) slow, gentle movements with deep breathing and relaxation, may be an effective means of reducing the suffering. Recently, the researchers say that those who practiced the martial art twice a week had fewer complications (并发症) and better quality of life than those who didn’t. Experts say the findings back up previous studies on the benefits of exercise for those with Parkinson’s. The study, from Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine, monitored the health of hundreds of Parkinson’s patients for up to five years. One group of 147 people practiced regular Tai Chi while another group of 187 did not. The researchers found that the disease progressed more slowly in the Tai Chi group on measurements of symptoms (症状), movement and balance. This group also saw fewer falls, less back pain and dizziness, with memory and concentration problems also lower than in the other group. At the same time, sleep and quality of life continuously improved. Prof. Alastair Noyce, professor in neurology and neuroepidemiology (神经流行病学) at Queen Mary University of London, called it “an important study” - the positive effects on aspects of motor (运动的) and non-motor functions are striking. However, researchers also pointed out that the number of participants in the study was relatively small, and further research is needed. “We already recommend Tai Chi, as well as other forms of exercise, but understanding which forms of exercise are most beneficial is an important goal to improve the long-term management of patients,” he said. 12. Why was the study conducted? A. To remove the misunderstanding of the previous studies. B. To research the benefits of Tai Chi for those with Parkinson’s. C. To find a cure for Parkinson’s disease. D. To improve the sleep quality of Parkinson’s patients. 13. Which of the following is a finding of the researchers? A. The concentration level was lower in the Tai Chi group. B. Patients in the non-Tai Chi group seldom fell down. C. The disease progressed more slowly in the Tai Chi group. D. Back pain and dizziness were relieved in the non-Tai group. 14. What does the underlined word “striking” in paragraph 3 probably mean? A. Disappointing. B. Demanding. C. Challenging. D. Amazing. 15. What can we learn from Prof. Alastair Noyce’s words? A. It is unnecessary to do more related studies. B. It’s impossible to improve the long-term management of patients. C. Tai Chi should be given more preference. D. Finding the most beneficial exercise is of importance. 【答案】12. B 13. C 14. D 15. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了太极拳作为一种中国传统武术，可能对帕金森病患者的症状缓解和生活质量提升具有积极作用。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第一段“Tai Chi, a traditional Chinese martial art that combines (结合) slow, gentle movements with deep breathing and relaxation, may be an effective means of reducing the suffering. Recently, the researchers say that those who practiced the martial art twice a week had fewer complications (并发症) and better quality of life than those who didn’t. Experts say the findings back up previous studies on the benefits of exercise for those with Parkinson’s. (太极拳，这一将缓慢、轻柔的动作与深呼吸及放松相结合的中国传统武术，或许是减轻病痛的一种有效手段。近期，研究人员表示，那些每周练习两次太极拳的患者，相较于不练习的患者，出现的并发症更少，生活质量也更高。专家称，这些研究结果印证了此前关于运动对帕金森病患者有益的相关研究。)” 可知，研究都是围绕太极拳对帕金森病患者的益处展开的。故选B。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段“The researchers found that the disease progressed more slowly in the Tai Chi group on measurements of symptoms (症状), movement and balance. (研究人员发现，从症状、行动能力以及平衡能力等方面的衡量来看，练习太极拳的这一组患者病情进展更为缓慢。)”可知，研究人员发现从症状、运动和平衡方面的测量来看，练太极拳的那一组患者病情进展更慢。故选C。 【14题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线单词所在句“Prof. Alastair Noyce, professor in neurology and neuroepidemiology(神经流行病学) at Queen Mary University of London, called it “an important study”— the positive effects on aspects of motor(运动的) and non-motor functions are striking. (伦敦玛丽女王大学神经学与神经流行病学教授阿拉斯泰尔・诺伊斯称这是一项“重要的研究”——其对运动功能和非运动功能各方面产生的积极影响……。)”可知，伦敦玛丽女王大学的教授称这项研究是“重要的研究”，并且强调其对运动功能和非运动功能各方面产生的积极影响十分“striking”。结合前文所阐述的练习太极拳的那一组患者在病情进展、摔倒情况、疼痛头晕情况以及睡眠和生活质量等多方面都有良好的表现，说明这种积极影响是很显著、令人惊叹的。选项D“amazing”，意为“令人惊奇的、惊人的”，与此相符。故选D。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段““We already recommend Tai Chi, as well as other forms of exercise, but understanding which forms of exercise are most beneficial is an important goal to improve the long-term management of patients,” he said. (他表示：“我们已经推荐太极拳以及其他形式的运动了，但了解哪种运动形式最为有益，对于改善患者的长期病情管理来说是一个重要目标。”)”可知，Prof. Alastair Noyce认为了解哪种运动形式最有益处对于改善患者的长期病情管理是一个重要目标，这明确表明了找到最有益的运动形式是很重要的。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。 How to Be Who You Want to Be Learning to be comfortable with yourself can be hard, and you might wish to be someone different.

Heaving wandered in the street for hours, she felt a little hungry and wished for something to eat. She stood beside a stand for while, watching the middle-aged seller busy doing his business. However, with no money in hand. She sighed and had to leave. The seller behind the stand, noticed the young girl and asked, “Hey, girl, you want to have the noodles?” “Oh yes... but I don’t have money on me” she replied. “That’s nothing. I’ll treat you today,” said the man. “Come in.” The seller brought her a bowl of noodles, whose smell was so attractive. As she was eating, Lucy cried silently. “What is it?” asked the man kindly. “Nothing, actually I was just touched by your kindness!” said Lucy. “Even a stranger on the street will give me a bowl noodles, while my mother drove me out of the house. She showed no care for me. She is so merciless compared to a stranger!” Hearing the words, the seller smiled, “Girl, do you really think so? I only gave you a bowl of noodles and you thank me a lot. But it is your mother who has raised you since you were baby. Can you remember the times she cooked for you? Have you expressed your gratitude to her?” Lucy sat there speechless and numb with shock; she remembered mother’s familiar face and weathered hands. “Why did I not think of that? A bowl of noodles from a stranger made me feel grateful, but I have never thanked my mum for what she has done for me.” On the way home Lucy made up his mind to make an apology to her mother for his rudeness as soon as she arrived home. 注意：1. 续写词数应为150左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Paragraph 1 Nearing the doorway, Lucy took a deep breath. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2 A gentle touch on her hair called her mind back. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】范文 Nearing the doorway, Lucy took a deep breath.

Her mother opened the door but Lucy was so ashamed that she didn’t know what to say. A gentle touch on her hair called her mind back. Lucy couldn’t help crying and said “Sorry, mom, I know I have made a big mistake. I shouldn’t have quarreled with you. I shouldn’t have run away from home. Could you forgive me?” Lucy’s mother was moved, saying “Good girl, never mind, I also should make an apology to you for scolding at you angrily. I am very worried about you. ” Tears rolled down from both of their faces and they hugged each other tightly. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了小女孩Lucy和母亲争吵后离家出走，走在街上，觉得饿了，一个卖面条的摊位前停下，摊主人知道情况后，免费请她吃了一碗面并听她倾诉，她很感恩，摊主却告诉她：“我请你吃一碗面，你就感激我，你想想你的妈妈养大你，给你做了多少顿饭呢？”Lucy顿悟，决定回家和妈妈好好沟通。 【详解】1. 段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“快到门口时，露茜深吸了一口气”可知，第一段可描写Lucy在走到家门口进门前的心理活动。 ②由第二段首句内容“她的头发被轻轻地碰了一下，她的思绪又回来了”可知，第二段可描写Lucy和妈妈的谈话，向妈妈真诚地道歉，母女之间的感情得到了更好的沟通。 2. 续写线索：站在家门口——敲门——妈妈开门——承认错误——沟通——拥抱 3. 词汇激活 行为类 ①原谅：forgive/ pardon ②想起：think of/ remember ③向……道歉：make an apology to/ say sorry to 情绪类 ①感动：moved / touched ②羞愧：ashamed/ abashed 【点睛】【高分句型1】Standing in front of the door, she was afraid whether her mother would forgive her for her rudeness.

Most of my peers (同龄人) had picked out their majors and some even planned their careers. But I was still wondering about that. I’ve always enjoyed writing but didn’t know how to make a career out of it. After researching my options, such as journalism, I thought Professional Communications could improve my writing skills and lead me to a career in business. With that, I sent in my application, was accepted and started preparing for my first term of university. When course intentions rolled around, I began looking at the list of minors. Marketing caught my attention. It would complement (补充) my communications degree while providing me with the necessary business courses that were outside of the program. Without hesitation, I scheduled marketing into my studies, with the goal of using that newfound knowledge to accompany the technical skills that my major would provide me with. My school year began in a pretty typical way: the orientation week (迎新周), joining clubs and meeting new people. As time went on, I found myself enjoying the marketing courses more than the communications courses, and it was then that I first began to consider making a change. Finally, I spoke with a friend who had switched to a different major, and his words of encouragement were the final push I needed to go through with the decision. A few days later, I sent in my application, and soon I received my acceptance letter. I’ve now been gifted with a wonderful start to the year, and I couldn’t be happier about making the change. I feel less pressured to “find myself” and can put 110% effort into my studies. A note to high school students: University brings with it a load of new beginnings and self-reflection. It’s perfectly fine to come into university thinking you want one thing and finding out along the way that it might not be the right path for you. 4. Why was the author at a loss after high school? A. She suffered from a lack of confidence. B. She fell behind her peers in performance. C. She was afraid to choose a wrong university. D. She struggled to decide a future direction. 5. Which aspect of marketing attracted the author? A. Its business courses. B. Its exciting career opportunities. C. Its stress on technical skills. D. Its courses related to writing. 6. What led the author to think about changing her major? A. The active encouragement from a friend. B. Reduced interest in communications. C. The growing passion for marketing courses. D. Access to numerous new opportunities. 7. What does the author advise high school students to do? A. Think twice about major selection. B. Be open to changing academic paths. C. Concentrate all their efforts on study. D. Engage in self-reflection consistently. C Microplastics are found nearly everywhere on Earth and can be harmful to animals if they’re taken in. But it’s hard to remove such tiny particles (微粒) from the environment, especially once they settle into corners and cracks at the bottom of waterways. Now, researchers in ACS’ Nano Letters have created a light-activated fish robot that “swims” around quickly, picking up and removing microplastics from the environment. Because microplastics can fall into cracks, they’ve been hard to remove from water environments. One solution that has been proposed is using small, flexible (柔韧的), and self-propelled robots to reach these pollutants and clean them up. But the traditional materials used for soft robots can be damaged easily in water environments. Another material called mother-of-pearl, also known as nacre, is strong and flexible, and is found on the inside surface of shells. Inspired by this natural substance, Xinxing Zhang and his colleagues wanted to try a similar type of gradient structure to create a durable (耐用的) and bendable material for soft robots. Using the material, the researchers have created a fish robot that could move 2.67 body lengths per second — a speed that’s faster than previously reported for other soft swimming robots. The researchers showed that the swimming fish robot could repeatedly take in nearby microplastics and transport them elsewhere. The material could also recover itself after being cut, still keeping its ability to take in microplastics. Because of the durability and speed of the fish robot, the researchers say that it could be used for monitoring microplastics and other pollutants in tough water environments. 8. Why are microplastics hard to remove? A. Because they are hard to find. B. Because there are no tools to use. C. Because they are in large quantities. D. Because they are too small and hide in corners and cracks. 9. Which is a disadvantage of traditional materials? A. Difficult to store. B. Rare to find. C. Easy to damage. D. Expensive to produce. 10. What mainly makes the fish robot suitable for monitoring microplastics? A. Its durability. B. Its size. C. Its weight. D. Its shape. 11. Where is the text likely from? A. A fiction. B. A magazine. C. A film. D. A diary. D Parkinson’s is a progressive brain disease which leads to shaky hands and slow movement, and there is no cure. Tai Chi, a traditional Chinese martial art that combines (结合) slow, gentle movements with deep breathing and relaxation, may be an effective means of reducing the suffering. Recently, the researchers say that those who practiced the martial art twice a week had fewer complications (并发症) and better quality of life than those who didn’t. Experts say the findings back up previous studies on the benefits of exercise for those with Parkinson’s. The study, from Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine, monitored the health of hundreds of Parkinson’s patients for up to five years. One group of 147 people practiced regular Tai Chi while another group of 187 did not. The researchers found that the disease progressed more slowly in the Tai Chi group on measurements of symptoms (症状), movement and balance. This group also saw fewer falls, less back pain and dizziness, with memory and concentration problems also lower than in the other group. At the same time, sleep and quality of life continuously improved. Prof. Alastair Noyce, professor in neurology and neuroepidemiology (神经流行病学) at Queen Mary University of London, called it “an important study” - the positive effects on aspects of motor (运动的) and non-motor functions are striking. However, researchers also pointed out that the number of participants in the study was relatively small, and further research is needed. “We already recommend Tai Chi, as well as other forms of exercise, but understanding which forms of exercise are most beneficial is an important goal to improve the long-term management of patients,” he said. 12. Why was the study conducted? A. To remove the misunderstanding of the previous studies. B. To research the benefits of Tai Chi for those with Parkinson’s. C. To find a cure for Parkinson’s disease. D. To improve the sleep quality of Parkinson’s patients. 13. Which of the following is a finding of the researchers? A. The concentration level was lower in the Tai Chi group. B. Patients in the non-Tai Chi group seldom fell down. C. The disease progressed more slowly in the Tai Chi group. D. Back pain and dizziness were relieved in the non-Tai group. 14 What does the underlined word “striking” in paragraph 3 probably mean? A. Disappointing. B. Demanding. C. Challenging. D. Amazing. 15. What can we learn from Prof. Alastair Noyce’s words? A. It is unnecessary to do more related studies. B. It’s impossible to improve the long-term management of patients. C.
