Growing up with movies such as “High School Musical” and “Grease”, which presented the ideal(理想的)high school friendships, we sometimes expect a perfect relationship. Indeed, some high school friendships can be real and simple; while still some high school students will meet a friend who causes trouble. With failed friendships come lessons and experiences learned for the future. You will know the influence after you leave high school.
“I was always worried about what my friends thought about me. Sometimes my friends would make fun of what I wore or what I would do. I always tried to get along well with them, but I realized how happy I was once I stopped contacting them after high school,” said Elisha, Class of 2020.
Most teens have not realized the big question when dealing with high school problems. In five years, will this still matter? It is hard looking at the big picture when the problems are in front of you, which is understandable. However, most teens need a moment to reflect (反思) and question if the problem matters in a long time.
Briana, a high school teacher, said, “Now, I am in contact with two high school friends. I think the friendship experiences I had in high school shaped who I am because I learned to be open minded and befriend all kinds of people. I learned to see people for who they are, not what they wear or who they play with. I learned most of all how to be a good friend.”
High school is a small part of your life, but it has a huge influence on who you will become and where you will go. Friendships and relationships help shape who you are, whether they are good or bad. Lessons are brought, and lessons are learned.
4. Why did the author mention the two movies in the first paragraph?
A. To introduce the topic of the passage.
B. To explain what a high school friendship is.
C. To recommend these two movies to readers.
D. To attract readers’ attention to these two movies.
5. What did Elisha think of her “friends”?
A. They made her unhappy. B. They cared about her behavior.
C. They got along well with her. D. They were always worried about her.
6. Why did Briana think her friendship experiences shape her?
A. She learned to play with her friends.
B. She learned to make different friends.
C. She learned to shape her friends’ minds.
D. She learned to wear just like her friends.
7. What’s the passage mainly about?
A. Failed friendships made teens worried.
B. Good friendships greatly influenced teens.
C. High school friendships help to shape teens.
D. Friendships are difficult for teens to deal with,
【答案】4. A 5. A 6. B 7. C

Barbara Lakin, a former sweater designer living in New York, has breathed new life into special Barbies. She spends hundreds of hours in sewing (缝纫) unique and well-designed dresses for old Barbies that are donated by people who are supportive of her effort. The little girls who are going to get these toys are migrants, most of whom have traveled with their family for months to get to the US, usually escaping from poor economies and dangerous situations at home.
Lakin knows it is hard to imagine what these children have gone through. She believes having a toy, especially for a child in these conditions, is really important. It’s something that can comfort them and something that they can hold close. While those toys will never take away the trauma they have experienced or the difficulties they still face at present, Lakin said the toys do make a great difference. It is more than just a Barbie toy; at least for a moment, these young migrants can be simply children again. She thinks that is particularly important to them.
“I get a lot out of it, too,” Lakin said truly. “I personally like to hand them out because I love being able to say, ‘I made this for you’, and the smiles and the happiness they gave me. It’s moments like these that make it all worthwhile.”
Lakin does her best to source Barbies and takes her creative process seriously, carefully sewing the Barbie’s clothes. She has given away nearly 20 Barbies so far, which are made up of toys in a variety of shapes and sizes, and she hopes people will donate more. “It shows these kids we care about them a lot and that we’re not just giving them sandwiches and water and essential clothes. It’s an extra special thing, and I think that they deserve it,” commented Lakin.
8 Who will most probably receive Lakin’s Barbie?
A. Tanaka, a Japanese girl, who is crazy about Barbies.
B. Olivia, an American girl, whose family suffers poverty.
C. Talia, an Israeli girl, who is still experiencing dangerous situations at home.
D. Yara, a Syrian girl, who moved to New York to avoid the harm from war.
9. The underlined word “trauma” in Paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to _______ .
A. disaster B. pleasure C. suffering D. stress
10. What does Lakin think of giving away the Barbies?
A. It makes her a hero. B. It is well worth praising.
C. It is a win-win behavior. D. It brings her much money.
11. Which of the following best describes Lakin?
A. Patient. B. Serious. C. Grateful. D. Caring.
【答案】8. D 9. C 10. C 11. D
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇记叙文,主要讲的是纽约的一位前毛衣设计师Barbara Lakin如何通过自己的努力,为来美移民小女孩捐赠并亲手缝制芭比娃娃,为她们带去欢乐和安慰的故事。
【8题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段“The little girls who are going to get these toys are migrants, most of whom have traveled with their family for months to get to the US, usually escaping from poor economies and dangerous situations at home.(得到这些玩具小女孩都是移民,她们大多是为了逃避国内的贫困经济和危险情况,与家人一起旅行了几个月才来到美国。)”可知,Lakin的芭比娃娃主要是给那些逃离贫困和危险情况的移民小女孩,因此最有可能收到Lakin的芭比娃娃的是Yara,一个叙利亚女孩,她和家人搬到纽约以避免战争的伤害。故选D。
【9题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第一段“The little girls who are going to get these toys are migrants, most of whom have traveled with their family for months to get to the US, usually escaping from poor economies and dangerous situations at home.(得到这些玩具的小女孩都是移民,她们大多是为了逃避国内的贫困经济和危险情况,与家人一起旅行了几个月才来到美国。)”,第二段“they have experienced(他们经历了)”和“or the difficulties they still face at present(或者他们目前仍然面临的困难)”可知,划线词所在句子表示“虽然这些玩具永远无法消除他们所经历的创伤或他们目前仍然面临的困难,但Lakin说,这些玩具确实会带来很大的不同”,划线词trauma的意思是“痛苦经历,创伤”,和suffering意思相近。故选C。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段““I get a lot out of it, too,” Lakin said truly. “I personally like to hand them out because I love being able to say, ‘I made this for you’, and the smiles and the happiness they gave me. It’s moments like these that make it all worthwhile.”(“我也从中得到了很多,”Lakin真诚地说。“我个人喜欢把它们分发出去,因为我喜欢能够说,‘我为你做了这个’,以及它们给我带来的微笑和快乐。只有这样的时刻,一切才值得。”)”可知,Lakin认为赠送芭比娃娃是双赢的行为。故选C。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“It shows these kids we care about them a lot and that we’re not just giving them sandwiches and water and essential clothes. It’s an extra special thing, and I think that they deserve it(这表明我们非常关心这些孩子,我们不只是给他们三明治、水和基本的衣服。这是一件特别的事情,我认为他们值得拥有它)”可知,Lakin是关心他人的,因此可用caring来描述Lakin。故选D。
D
A new study suggests that science role-playing may help tighten the gender gap in science, technology, engineering, and math(STEM)education and careers for women simply by improving their identity as scientists.
Frustrated by the gender gap in STEM, in which some fields employ at least three times more men than women, Cornell graduate student Reut Shachnai wanted to do something about it. Reut said the idea to help foster young girls’ interest in science came to her during a lecture in a class she was taking on Psychology of Imagination.
Reut designed an experiment to test if assuming the role of a successful scientist would improve girls’ persistence in a “sink or float” science game. The game itself was simple yet challenging: a computer screen projected a slide with an object in the center above a pool of water. Kids then had to predict whether the object would sink or float.
She studied 240 four -to -seven -year -olds, because this is around the time kids first develop their sense of identity and capabilities. They were divided into two groups. Children in the “story” group learned about the successes and struggles of a gender -matched scientist before playing the game. Boys heard about Isaac Newton and girls were told about Marie Curie. Children in the “pretend” group were told to assume the identity of the scientist they just learned about.
All kids played at least one round of the game. No matter what group they were in, girls got the answers right just as often as boys -nearly 70% of the time. Boys, however, didn’t really benefit from the stories or make-believe. Besides, girls pretending to be Dr. Marie persisted twice as long at the sink-or-float game, playing just as much as the boys did.
Reut’s teacher Tamar Kushnir said, “Rather than merely hearing about role models, children may benefit from actively performing the type of actions they see role models perform. In other words, taking a few steps in the role model’s shoes, instead of merely observing her walk.”
12. Why did Reut design a “sink or float” science game?
A. To handle the gender gap in STEM. B. To attach importance to STEM.
C. To draw kids’ attention to STEM. D. To compare boys’ and girls’ persistence.
13. What can we infer from the sink-or-float game?
A. Kids enjoyed listening to scientists’ stories. B. Boys avoided playing make-believe games.
C. Girls performed as well as boys in science. D. Children followed Dr. Marie to explore science.
14. What is Tamar Kushnir’s attitude towards kids’ assuming identity as scientists?
A. Supportive. B. Doubtful. C. Indifferent. D. Negative.
15. What would be the best title for the passage?
A. Girls should get recognition like boys B. A fine example has boundless power for kids
C. Girls can work on more science games D. Make-believe exercises benefit girls in STEM
【答案】12. A 13. C 14. A 15. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章讲述一项新的研究表明,通过提高女性作为科学家的身份,科学角色扮演可能有助于缩小女性在科学、技术、工程和数学(STEM)教育和职业方面的性别差距。
【12题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段“Frustrated by the gender gap in STEM, in which some fields employ at least three times more men than women, Cornell graduate student Reut Shachnai wanted to do something about it.”(康奈尔大学的研究生Reut Shachnai对STEM领域的性别差距感到沮丧,在某些领域,男性雇员的数量至少是女性的三倍,他想为此做点什么。)和第三段“Reut designed an experiment to test if assuming the role of a successful scientist would improve girls’ persistence in a “sink or float” science game.”(Reut设计了一个实验来测试假设一个成功的科学家的角色是否会提高女孩在“下沉或漂浮”科学游戏中的毅力。)可知,Reut设计了一个“下沉或漂浮”的游戏,是为了解决在STEM领域存在的性别差距。故选A。
【13题详解】
推理判断题。根据第五段“No matter what group they were in, girls got the answers right just as often as boys -nearly 70% of the time.”(无论他们在哪个组,女孩的答对率都和男孩一样——接近70%。)和“Besides, girls pretending to be Dr. Marie persisted twice as long at the sink-or-float game, playing just as much as the boys did.”(此外,假装Marie博士的女孩在“下沉或漂浮”游戏中坚持的时间是男孩的两倍,玩得和男孩一样多。)可知,在游戏当中,女孩在科学方面的表现和男孩一样好。故选C。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段Tamar Kushnir说的话“Rather than merely hearing about role models, children may benefit from actively performing the type of actions they see role models perform. ”(孩子们可能会从积极地做他们看到的榜样所做的事情中受益,而不仅仅是听到关于榜样的事情。)可知,Tamar Kushnir认为孩子们扮演科学家角色会让他们从中受益,由此推知,作者对此持支持态度。故选A。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段“A new study suggests that science role-playing may help tighten the gender gap in science, technology, engineering, and math(STEM)education and careers for women simply by improving their identity as scientists.”(一项新的研究表明,通过提高女性作为科学家的身份,科学角色扮演可能有助于缩小女性在科学、技术、工程和数学(STEM)教育和职业生涯中的性别差距。)及全文内容可知,本文主要讲述了科学角色扮演的练习有助于缩小女性在STEM的性别差距,对女性是有益的。故D项“假装练习在STEM方面对女孩有益”可以作为本文的最佳标题。故选D。
二、阅读七选五(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。
Olympic medals are among the most respected honors in the sporting world, symbolizing not only athletic victory, but also the rich history, fine craftsmanship, and longstanding traditions of the Games. ____16____ Are they made entirely of gold, silver, and bronze? And what makes the Paris 2024 Olympic medals special?
Originally, Olympic winners in 776 BCE were honored with olive wreaths (橄榄花环) rather than medals. The concept of medals as we know them today first emerged at the 1896 Athens Games. However, solid gold medals were no longer awarded after 1912. ____17____ As a result, the International Olympic Committee later updated the regulations regarding medal composition and design.
Modern gold medals are primarily composed of 92.5% silver with a six-gram gold plating for appearance. ____18____ They contain at least 92.5% pure silver, and bronze medals consist of 95% copper and 5% zinc (锌). This mixture ensures the medals’ longevity and makes them cheaper. An Olympic gold medal may be worth over £500, but its value to athletes goes beyond its financial worth.
____19____ For instance, the 2012 London Olympics medals featured the River Thames and London skyline. Rio 2016 focused on sustainability by using leftover mirrors and X-ray plates. Tokyo 2020 medals, made from recycled electronics, emphasized technological innovation.
For the Paris 2024 Olympics, the medals are particularly distinctive. Each features a hexagon (六边形) with the Paris 2024 logo on one side and Nike, the Greek goddess of victory, in front of the Eiffel Tower on the other. ____20____ As Thierry Reboul, creative director of Paris 2024, stated, “These medals offer athletes a physical piece of Paris to take home.”
A. Pure gold is soft and easily damaged.
B. When were these medals first introduced?
C. Who is responsible for designing the medals?
D. Silver medals by contrast, live up to their names.
E. With these symbols, they honor the history of the Olympics.
F. Unique to this year, the medals use metal from the Eiffel Tower.
G. The design of medals reflects the host city’s distinct style and values.
【答案】16. B 17. A 18. D 19. G 20. F

【导语】本文为一篇说明文,文章主要介绍了奥运会奖牌的历史、材质以及2024届伦敦奥运会奖牌的特点。
【16题详解】
根据空后“Are they made entirely of gold, silver, and bronze? And what makes the Paris 2024 Olympic medals special?(它们是用金、银和青铜制成的吗?是什么让 2024 年巴黎奥运会的奖牌与众不同?)”可知,后文提出了与奥运奖牌相关的问题,故此空应与后文排比,同样设问,且根据文章第二段内容“The concept of medals as we know them today first emerged at the 1896 Athens Games.(奖牌的概念首先出现在1896年雅典奥运会。)”可知,文章第二段在解释此空提出的问题,故B项“这些奖牌于什么时候首次引入的呢?”符合,故选B项。
【17题详解】
根据空前“However, solid gold medals were no longer awarded after 1912.(然而,自1912年后,不再颁发纯金牌。)”和空后“As a result, the International Olympic Committee later updated the regulations regarding medal composition and design.(结果,后来国际奥委会更新了关于金牌成分和设计的规则。)”可知,空前提到不再颁发纯金牌,空后又提出了关于金牌成分和设计规则的改变,故A项“纯金很软,容易损坏。”符合,承接前文不再颁发纯金牌的原因,又引出空后修改金牌的成分和设计的规则,故选A项。
【18题详解】
根据空前“Modern gold medals are primarily composed of 92.5% silver with a six- gram gold plating for appearance.(现代金牌主要由 92.5%的银和六克镀金组成。)”可知,空前解释了金牌的成分,且根据空后“They contain at least 92.5% pure silver(它们含有至少92.5%的纯银。)”可知,空后提出了银的成分,故D项“相比之下,银牌是名副其实的。”符合,与前文构成对比,金牌由 92.5%的银和六克镀金组成,相比之下,银牌是名副其实的,它们含有至少92.5%的纯银,且空后的They指代D项中的Silver medals,故选D项。
【19题详解】
根据空后“For instance, the 2012 London Olympics medals featured the River Thames and London skyline. Rio 2016 focused on sustainability by using leftover mirrors and X-ray plates. Tokyo 2020 medals, made from recycled electronics, emphasized technological innovation. (例如,2012年伦敦奥运会奖牌以泰晤士河和伦敦天际线为特色。2016年里约热内卢奥运会通过使用剩余的镜子和X光片来关注可持续发展。2020 年东京奥运会奖牌由回收电子产品制成,强调技术创新。)”可知,空后举例说明了每届奥运会奖牌的不同的设计,故G项“奖牌的设计反映了主办城市的风格和价值观”符合,位于本段句首,主题句,引出后文,故选G项。
【20题详解】
根据空前“Each features a hexagon (六边形) with the Paris 2024 logo on one side and Nike, the Greek goddess of victory, in front of the Eiffel Tower on the other.(每枚奖牌都是六边形的,一边印有巴黎2024的标志,另一边印有希腊胜利女神耐克站在埃菲尔铁塔前的形象。)”可知,空前提到了伦敦奥运会的奖牌,故此空F项“今年的独特之处在于,奖牌使用的金属来自埃菲尔铁塔”符合,进一步介绍巴黎 2024 年奥运会奖牌的特点,故选F项。

【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要介绍了法国戏剧导演Patrick Sommier对中国戏曲的热爱、他在中法文化交流中的贡献,以及他参与推广京剧项目的经历和感受。
【36题详解】
考查名词。句意:2004年,在中法建交40周年之际,Sommier受邀参与了一个在法国传播京剧的联合项目。由the和of可知,空格处用名词,句子表示“在中法建交40周年之际,Sommier受邀参与了一个在法国传播京剧的联合项目”,空格处意为“建立”,名词是establishment,是不可数名词,故填establishment。
【37题详解】
考查时态和主谓一致。句意:“这些年来,京剧的美一直抓住了我的心,”他继续说道,回忆起在他整个逗留期间京剧对他的影响。由over these years可知,句子时态用现在完成时,主语The beauty of Peking Opera是不可数名词,因此空格处是has seized。故填has seized。
【38题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:“这些年来,京剧的美一直抓住了我的心,”他继续说道,回忆起在他整个逗留期间京剧对他的影响。句中谓语是has seized,空格处用非谓语动词,he和reflect之间是主谓关系,因此空格处用现在分词表主动,故填reflecting。
【39题详解】
考查动词语态和主谓一致。句意:回想起与中方团队的首次合作,Sommier表示,演员们的妆容、服饰以及他们所饰演的具有非凡力量的角色给他留下了深刻印象。由by可知,句子用被动语态,由后面的He was also可知,时态是一般过去时,因此空格处用一般过去时的被动语态,主语he是单数,因此空格处是was impressed,故填was impressed。
【40题详解】
考查连词。句意:回想起与中方团队的首次合作,Sommier表示,演员们的妆容、服饰以及他们所饰演的具有非凡力量的角色给他留下了深刻印象。make-ups,costumes和the characters之间是并列关系,句子是肯定句,因此空格处用and表并列,故填and。
【41题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:他还被中国教授们与学生同台演出,努力向学生传授表演技巧的行为所感动。effort后常跟动词不定式,作后置定语,故填to pass。
【42题详解】
考查定语从句。句意:一位教授解释道:“在中国,戏曲是一门需要终身奉献的艺术。表演的效果很大程度上取决于演员的内在力量。”空格处引导的是限制性定语从句,从句中缺少主语,先行词art是艺术,因此空格处用关系代词that或which,故填that或which。
【43题详解】
考查副词。句意:一位教授解释道:“在中国,戏曲是一门需要终身奉献的艺术。表演的效果很大程度上取决于演员的内在力量。”空格处用副词largely修饰动词depends,largely意为“很大程度上”,故填largely。
【44题详解】
考查介词。句意:Sommier开始探索不同的表演形式,并建议将中国戏曲介绍给法国观众。introduce sth. to sb.是固定短语,意为“把……介绍给某人”,因此空格处用介词to,故填to。
【45题详解】
考查形容词。句意:随后,团队进行了一些原创表演,其中既有不化妆、不穿戏服的表演,也有学生以传统方式演绎经典的表演。空格处用形容词作定语,修饰名词way,tradition的形容词是traditional,意为“传统的”,故填traditional。

Growing up with movies such as “High School Musical” and “Grease”, which presented the ideal(理想的)high school friendships, we sometimes expect a perfect relationship. Indeed, some high school friendships can be real and simple; while still some high school students will meet a friend who causes trouble. With failed friendships come lessons and experiences learned for the future. You will know the influence after you leave high school.
“I was always worried about what my friends thought about me. Sometimes my friends would make fun of what I wore or what I would do. I always tried to get along well with them, but I realized how happy I was once I stopped contacting them after high school,” said Elisha, Class of 2020.
Most teens have not realized the big question when dealing with high school problems. In five years, will this still matter? It is hard looking at the big picture when the problems are in front of you, which is understandable. However, most teens need a moment to reflect (反思) and question if the problem matters in a long time.
Briana, a high school teacher, said, “Now, I am in contact with two high school friends. I think the friendship experiences I had in high school shaped who I am because I learned to be open minded and befriend all kinds of people. I learned to see people for who they are, not what they wear or who they play with. I learned most of all how to be a good friend.”
High school is a small part of your life, but it has a huge influence on who you will become and where you will go. Friendships and relationships help shape who you are, whether they are good or bad. Lessons are brought, and lessons are learned.
4. Why did the author mention the two movies in the first paragraph?
A. To introduce the topic of the passage.
B. To explain what a high school friendship is.
C. To recommend these two movies to readers.
D. To attract readers’ attention to these two movies.
5. What did Elisha think of her “friends”?
A. They made her unhappy. B. They cared about her behavior.
C. They got along well with her. D. They were always worried about her.
6. Why did Briana think her friendship experiences shape her?
A. She learned to play with her friends.
B. She learned to make different friends.
C. She learned to shape her friends’ minds.
D. She learned to wear just like her friends.
7. What’s the passage mainly about?
A. Failed friendships made teens worried.
B. Good friendships greatly influenced teens.
C. High school friendships help to shape teens.
D. Friendships are difficult for teens to deal with,

Barbara Lakin, a former sweater designer living in New York, has breathed new life into special Barbies. She spends hundreds of hours in sewing (缝纫) unique and well-designed dresses for old Barbies that are donated by people who are supportive of her effort. The little girls who are going to get these toys are migrants, most of whom have traveled with their family for months to get to the US, usually escaping from poor economies and dangerous situations at home.
Lakin knows it is hard to imagine what these children have gone through. She believes having a toy, especially for a child in these conditions, is really important. It’s something that can comfort them and something that they can hold close. While those toys will never take away the trauma they have experienced or the difficulties they still face at present, Lakin said the toys do make a great difference. It is more than just a Barbie toy; at least for a moment, these young migrants can be simply children again. She thinks that is particularly important to them.
“I get a lot out of it, too,” Lakin said truly. “I personally like to hand them out because I love being able to say, ‘I made this for you’, and the smiles and the happiness they gave me. It’s moments like these that make it all worthwhile.”
Lakin does her best to source Barbies and takes her creative process seriously, carefully sewing the Barbie’s clothes. She has given away nearly 20 Barbies so far, which are made up of toys in a variety of shapes and sizes, and she hopes people will donate more. “It shows these kids we care about them a lot and that we’re not just giving them sandwiches and water and essential clothes. It’s an extra special thing, and I think that they deserve it,” commented Lakin.
8. Who will most probably receive Lakin’s Barbie?
A. Tanaka, a Japanese girl, who is crazy about Barbies.
B. Olivia, an American girl, whose family suffers poverty.
C. Talia, an Israeli girl, who is still experiencing dangerous situations at home.
D. Yara, a Syrian girl, who moved to New York to avoid the harm from war.
9. The underlined word “trauma” in Paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to _______ .
A. disaster B. pleasure C. suffering D. stress
10. What does Lakin think of giving away the Barbies?
A. It makes her a hero. B. It is well worth praising.
C. It is a win-win behavior. D. It brings her much money.
11. Which of the following best describes Lakin?
A. Patient. B. Serious. C. Grateful. D. Caring.
D
A new study suggests that science role-playing may help tighten the gender gap in science, technology, engineering, and math(STEM)education and careers for women simply by improving their identity as scientists.
Frustrated by the gender gap in STEM, in which some fields employ at least three times more men than women, Cornell graduate student Reut Shachnai wanted to do something about it. Reut said the idea to help foster young girls’ interest in science came to her during a lecture in a class she was taking on Psychology of Imagination.
Reut designed an experiment to test if assuming the role of a successful scientist would improve girls’ persistence in a “sink or float” science game. The game itself was simple yet challenging: a computer screen projected a slide with an object in the center above a pool of water. Kids then had to predict whether the object would sink or float.
She studied 240 four -to -seven -year -olds because this is around the time kids first develop their sense of identity and capabilities. They were divided into two groups. Children in the “story” group learned about the successes and struggles of a gender -matched scientist before playing the game. Boys heard about Isaac Newton and girls were told about Marie Curie. Children in the “pretend” group were told to assume the identity of the scientist they just learned about.
All kids played at least one round of the game. No matter what group they were in, girls got the answers right just as often as boys -nearly 70% of the time. Boys, however, didn’t really benefit from the stories or make-believe. Besides, girls pretending to be Dr. Marie persisted twice as long at the sink-or-float game, playing just as much as the boys did.
Reut’s teacher Tamar Kushnir said, “Rather than merely hearing about role models, children may benefit from actively performing the type of actions they see role models perform. In other words, taking a few steps in the role model’s shoes, instead of merely observing her walk.”
12. Why did Reut design a “sink or float” science game?
A. To handle the gender gap in STEM. B. To attach importance to STEM.
C. To draw kids’ attention to STEM. D. To compare boys’ and girls’ persistence.
13. What can we infer from the sink-or-float game?
A. Kids enjoyed listening to scientists’ stories. B. Boys avoided playing make-believe games.
C. Girls performed as well as boys in science. D. Children followed Dr. Marie to explore science.
14. What is Tamar Kushnir’s attitude towards kids’ assuming identity as scientists?
A. Supportive. B. Doubtful. C. Indifferent. D. Negative.
15. What would be the best title for the passage?
A. Girls should get recognition like boys B. A fine example has boundless power for kids

Olympic medals are among the most respected honors in the sporting world, symbolizing not only athletic victory, but also the rich history, fine craftsmanship, and longstanding traditions of the Games. ____16____ Are they made entirely of gold, silver, and bronze? And what makes the Paris 2024 Olympic medals special?
Originally, Olympic winners in 776 BCE were honored with olive wreaths (橄榄花环) rather than medals. The concept of medals as we know them today first emerged at the 1896 Athens Games. However, solid gold medals were no longer awarded after 1912. ____17____ As a result, the International Olympic Committee later updated the regulations regarding medal composition and design.
Modern gold medals are primarily composed of 92.5% silver with a six-gram gold plating for appearance. ____18____ They contain at least 92.5% pure silver, and bronze medals consist of 95% copper and 5% zinc (锌). This mixture ensures the medals’ longevity and makes them cheaper. An Olympic gold medal may be worth over £500, but its value to athletes goes beyond its financial worth.
____19____ For instance, the 2012 London Olympics medals featured the River Thames and London skyline. Rio 2016 focused on sustainability by using leftover mirrors and X-ray plates. Tokyo 2020 medals, made from recycled electronics, emphasized technological innovation.
For the Paris 2024 Olympics, the medals are particularly distinctive. Each features a hexagon (六边形) with the Paris 2024 logo on one side and Nike, the Greek goddess of victory, in front of the Eiffel Tower on the other. ____20____ As Thierry Reboul, creative director of Paris 2024, stated, “These medals offer athletes a physical piece of Paris to take home.”
A. Pure gold is soft and easily damaged.
B. When were these medals first introduced?
C. Who is responsible for designing the medals?
D. Silver medals by contrast, live up to their names.
E. With these symbols, they honor the history of the Olympics.
F. Unique to this year, the medals use metal from the Eiffel Tower.
G The design of medals reflects the host city’s distinct style and values.
