Bacow. His father worked full time while attending a state college in Detroit at night to earn his degree. Bacow, the former president of Tufts University, has taken over Harvard at a time when higher education is under attack for being financially out of reach to many Americans. But Bacow said his family’s journey had reflected the power of college education to transform generations and the opportunities that have historically been available in the United States. “My parents came to this country with almost nothing,” Bacow said. “I wouldn’t be here if this country had not been open to people like my parents at that time. Nor would I if my father hadn’t had the opportunity to get the college education.” Bacow grew up in Pontiac, Michigan. His father’s family fled anti-Jewish (反犹太的) violence in Minsk, then part of the Soviet Union, before the start of World War II and went to the United States. His mother arrived in Brooklyn at age 19, having survived Auschwitz concentration camp. She was the only Jew from her town to have survived the war. Yet Bacow, who is married with two sons, said that while growing up in Michigan, he had a happy childhood, entering science fairs as a child and building radios like his dad. Bacow has spent most of his professional career at MIT, Harvard and Tufts. He was a professor of environmental studies at MIT, and later a principal at the university. He led Tufts from 2001 to 2011. At Tufts, Bacow earned a reputation for shaking up a sleepy university that was being overshadowed by its peers in Boston. He is also credited with leading it through both 9/11 and the 2008 financial crisis. As the Tufts president, Bacow traveled around the country, reaching out to alumni (校友), and he urged his faculty and deans to do the same, in an effort to boost donations to finance Tufts’ academic ambitions. He raised more than $20 million for faculty recruitment, attracting up-and-coming professors by offering junior faculty perks (福利), such as long academic leaves that they couldn’t get elsewhere. Under Bacow’s leadership, Tufts spent millions on labs and libraries. He also made addresses nationally about the need to make higher education more accessible and affordable to low-income students. 4. The reason why Bacow appreciates college education is that . A. college education is out of reach to many Americans B. his family changed their fate due to college education C. few opportunities were available when his father came into the country D. a college degree helped his mother survive Auschwitz 5. What can we infer from the passage? A. The fellow townspeople of Bacow were all killed besides his mother. B. Bacow’s mother stimulated his interest in science. C. Bacow’s father was good at working with electronics. D. Bacow’s father came to the U.S. after World War II broke out. 6. The underlined word “shaking up” in paragraph 5 probably means . A. reactivating B. causing C. damaging D. taking over 7. What is this passage mainly about? A. How to be admitted to Harvard University. B. The history of Bacow’s family. C. The art of Bacow’s leadership in Tufts. D. Bacow’s way to individual success. 【答案】4. B 5. C 6. A 7. D 【解析】 【分析】本文是一篇名人传记。文章讲述的是Bacow的个人成功之路。 【4题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中his family’s journey had reflected the power of college education to transform generations and the opportunities that have historically been available in the United States.“他的家庭经历反映了大学教育改变几代人的力量，以及美国历史上一直存在的机遇。”可知， 【5题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段中Yet Bacow, who is married with two sons, said that while growing up in Michigan, he had a happy childhood, entering science fairs as a child and building radios like his dad.“Bacow欣赏大学教育的原因是他的家庭因为大学教育改变了他们的命运”。可知，Bacow的父亲擅长电子产品。故选C。 【6题详解】 词义猜测题。根据第五段中He is also credited with leading it through both 9/11 and the 2008 financial crisis.“他还因领导美国度过911和2008年金融危机而受到赞誉。”可知，Bacow earned a reputation for shaking up a sleepy university that was being overshadowed by its peers in Boston.“Bacow因改变了一所沉睡的在波士顿的其他大学面前黯然失色的大学而赢得了声誉。”推知划线词的意思是“使------恢复”。故选A。 【7题详解】 主旨大意题。根据最后一段Under Bacow’s leadership, Tufts spent millions on labs and libraries. He also made addresses nationally about the need to make higher education more accessible and affordable to low-income students.“在Bacow的领导下，Tufts花了数百万美元在实验室和图书馆上。他还在全国范围内发表演讲，阐述让低收入学生更容易接受和负担得起高等教育的必要性。”本文讲述的是Bacow的个人成功之路。故选D。 【点睛】概括主旨的方法是：先看首尾或各段开头再看全文找主题句，若无明显主题句，就通过关键词句来概括(如议论文中寻找表达作者观点态度的词句，记叙文寻找概括情节和中心的动词或反映人物特点的形容词)。文中出现两种或两种以上的不同观点时，务必牢记作者的观点才是体现全文中心的。本文第4小题，根据最后一段Under Bacow’s leadership, Tufts spent millions on labs and libraries. He also made addresses nationally about the need to make higher education more accessible and affordable to low-income students.“在Bacow的领导下，Tufts花了数百万美元在实验室和图书馆上。他还在全国范围内发表演讲，阐述让低收入学生更容易接受和负担得起高等教育的必要性。”本文讲述的是Bacow的个人成功之路。故选D。 C Since young children went back to school across Sweden recently, many of their teachers have been putting a new emphasis on printed books, quiet reading time and handwriting practice, and devoting less time to tablets, independent online research and keyboarding skills. The return to more traditional ways of learning is a response to politicians and experts questioning whether Sweden’s hyper-digitalized approach to education, including the introduction of tablets in nursery schools, had led to a decline in basic skills. Sweden’s minister for schools, Lotta Edholm was one of the biggest critics of the all-out embrace of technology. “Sweden’s students need more textbooks,” Edholm said in March. “Physical books are important for student learning.” The minister announced in August that the government wanted to change the decision by the national agency for education to make digital devices compulsory in preschools. It plans to go further and to completely end digital learning for children under age six, the ministry has told the Associated Press. Although Sweden’s students score above the European average for reading ability, an international assessment of fourth-grade reading levels, the Progress in International Reading Literacy Study (PIRLS), highlighted a decline among Sweden’s children between 2016 and 2021. In comparison, Singapore — which topped the rankings — improved its PIRLS reading scores from 576 to 587 during the same period, and England’s average reading achievement score fell only slightly, from 559 in 2016 to 558 in 2021. An overuse of screens during school lessons may cause youngsters to fall behind in core subjects, education experts say. “There’s clear scientific evidence that digital tools impair rather than enhance student learning,” Sweden’s Karolinska Institute, a highly respected medical school focused on research, said in a statement in August on the country’s national digitalization strategy in education. “We believe the focus should return to acquiring knowledge through printed textbooks and teacher expertise, rather than acquiring knowledge primarily from freely available digital sources that have not been checked for accuracy.” the school added. 8. Why do Swedish schools return to paper books? A. To cater to parents’ increasing needs. B. To help with children’s independent learning. C. To overcome children’s addiction to digital tools. D. To avoid possible decline in children’s basic skills. 9. What does the underlined words “all-out embrace” mean in Paragraph 3? A. Total acceptance. B. Creative use. C. Rapid development. D. Serious addiction. 10. What might Karolinska Institute agree with? A. Teachers should acquire more knowledge. B. Knowledge from digital tools may not be reliable. C. Digital tools smooth out learning barriers for children. D. The accessibility to digital sources should be improved. 11. Which of the following is a suitable title for the text? A. Swedish Children’s Return to Paper B. Problems with Children’s Education C. Popularity of Digitalization in Sweden D. Enhancement of Teaching Strategies in Sweden 【答案】8. D 9. A 10. B 11. A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了瑞典学校回归纸质书是为了避免儿童基本技能的可能下降，引用了各界人士对此的看法和态度。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“The return to more traditional ways of learning is a response to politicians and experts questioning whether Sweden’s hyper-digitalized approach to education, including the introduction of tablets in nursery schools, had led to a decline in basic skills.(回归更传统的学习方式是对政治家和专家的回应，他们质疑瑞典的超数字化教育方式，包括在幼儿园引入平板电脑，是否导致了基本技能的下降)”可知，瑞典学校回归纸质书是为了避免儿童基本技能的可能下降。故选D。 【9题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线词后文““Sweden’s students need more textbooks,” Edholm said in March.(“瑞典的学生需要更多的教科书，”埃德霍尔姆在3月份说)”可知，埃德霍尔姆对于完全接受科技处于批评态度。故划线词意思是“完全接受”。故选A。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段““We believe the focus should return to acquiring knowledge through printed textbooks and teacher expertise, rather than acquiring knowledge primarily from freely available digital sources that have not been checked for accuracy.” the school added.(“我们认为，重点应该回归到通过印刷教科书和教师专业知识获取知识，而不是主要从未经准确性检查的免费数字资源获取知识。”学校补充道)”可知，卡罗林斯卡学院可能会同意来自数字工具的知识可能不可靠。故选B。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“Since young children went back to school across Sweden recently, many of their teachers have been putting a new emphasis on printed books, quiet reading time and handwriting practice, and devoting less time to tablets, independent online research and keyboarding skills.(自从瑞典各地的孩子们最近回到学校以来，他们的许多老师都把新的重点放在了印刷书籍、安静的阅读时间和书写练习上，减少了花在平板电脑、独立在线研究和键盘技能上的时间)”结合文章主要说明了瑞典学校回归纸质书是为了避免儿童基本技能的可能下降，引用了各界人士对此的看法和态度。可知，A选项“瑞典儿童重返纸质书”最符合文章标题。故选A。 D Every year, about 15 billion trees are cut down to make way for agriculture, mining, logging. and urban expansion. Such mass deforestation has accelerated global warming and endangered the survival of millions of species. Though many nations, organizations, and even individuals have tried, no one could plant enough trees to make up for that loss — but some innovative entrepreneurs are working on a high-tech solution. BioCarbon Engineering (BCE), a U.K.-based start-up, has developed a technique that could plant one billion trees per year. The method? Drones (无人机). Current tree-planting programs "are just not fast enough," said Irina Fedorenko, a co-founder of the company. "But our technology is automated, so we can scale up quite realistically and quite quickly." First, a drone scans the land and develops a 3-D map of the area. Then, using the data from this "smart map", the team develops an algorithm (算法) for a unique planting pattern. A drone uses the algorithm to carry out the planting strategy. The drone flies about six feet above the ground, firing growing seeds at a speed that will get them under the soil. The species planted by drone has a better survival rate than helicopter spreading that's more commonly used. Some species even have survival rates nearly identical to hand planting. With GPS and imaging technologies, experts agree that drones have become useful for accurately mapping large areas of land and measuring tree growth. But some scientists are more skeptical about their success as a planting technology to tackle deforestation on a large scale. After all, they only have so much range and battery life. "Drones are good for measuring secondary growth and looking at where the forest is coming back, but you fight deforestation at a socioeconomic level," says Arturo Sanchez, director of the University of Alberta's Center for Earth Observation and Sciences. "The issue of climate change is not forest restoration, the issue is energy. It is controlling coal plants, power plants, automobile emissions. Planting trees is very important, but when you look at the distribution of CO₂ emissions, deforestation accounts for 10 to 15 percent. The rest is energy. That's what needs to be controlled." 12. What is the author's purpose in mentioning many trees are cut down? A. To appeal to us to stop cutting down trees. B. To demonstrate the widespread use of trees. C. To show the urgency of planting sufficient trees. D. To illustrate the effect of economic development on forests. 13. What can we know about BCE's planting strategy? A. Drones can't grow trees faster than current programs. B. Drones accurately map the land prior to planting. C. Drones grow seeds six feet beneath the ground. D. Drones make seeds survive better than hand planting. 14. What is some experts' attitude towards BCE's way to restore forests completely? A. Doubtful. B. Optimistic. C. Carefree. D. Intolerant. 15. Which statement will Arturo Sanchez most probably agree with? A. Restoring forest is key to tackling climate change. B. More coal plants are needed to generate abundant energy. C. A major part of CO₂ emissions results from deforestation. D. Coal plants and cars emissions should be restricted. 【答案】12. C 13. B 14. A 15. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了一家名为BioCarbon Engineering (BCE)的英国初创公司，他们开发了一种可以每年种植十亿棵树的技术，这种技术使用无人机来实现。 【12题详解】 细推理判断题。根据文章第一段“Every year, about 15 billion trees are cut down to make way for agriculture, mining, logging. and urban expansion. Such mass deforestation has accelerated global warming and endangered the survival of millions of species.(每年有大约150亿棵树被砍伐，以便为农业、采矿、伐木和城市扩张让路。如此大规模的森林砍伐加速了全球变暖，威胁了数百万物种的生存)”可推知，作者提到大量树木被砍伐的目的是为了显示种植足够树木的紧迫性。故选C。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第三段“First, a drone scans the land and develops a 3-D map of the area. Then, using the data from this smart map, the team develops an algorithm (算法) for a unique planting pattern. A drone uses the algorithm to carry out the planting strategy.(首先，无人机扫描土地并制作该区域的3D地图。然后，团队使用这个“智能地图”的数据，开发出一种独特的种植模式的算法。无人机使用这个算法来执行种植策略)”可知，无人机在种植前会精确地绘制出土地的地图。故选B。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章倒数第二段“But some scientists are more skeptical about their success as a planting technology to tackle deforestation on a large scale. After all, they only have so much range and battery life.(但是一些科学家对这种种植技术能否成功解决大规模森林砍伐问题持怀疑态度。毕竟，它们的续航里程和电池寿命是有限的)”可推知，一些专家对BCE完全恢复森林的方式持怀疑态度。故选A。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“The issue of climate change is not forest restoration, the issue is energy. It is controlling coal plants, power plants, automobile emissions. Planting trees is very important, but when you look at the distribution of CO₂ emissions, deforestation accounts for 10 to 15 percent. The rest is energy. That's what needs to be controlled.(气候变化问题不是森林恢复问题，而是能源问题。它在控制煤电厂，发电厂，汽车排放。植树固然重要，但从二氧化碳排放量的分布来看，毁林占10%-15%。剩下的就是能源。这是需要控制的)”可推知，燃煤电厂和汽车排放应该受到限制。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。 When you think of your closest friends, who will come to your mind? Perhaps your college roommates or the neighbor you played with as a child. Regardless of how you met these people, they most likely have one key thing in common: ____16____ A 2023 study found that, for those aged 21 to 30, over 80 percent in their social circles, were born within five years of them. Moreover, nearly 63 percent of adults have no close friends 15 years older or younger than them. Spending our time with such a narrow group of people can fuel age segregation and increase our loneliness. These limitations also keep us from other generations’ mindsets and potentially surprising points of connection. ____17____ Of course, the ones that are older might offer a brief look into the coming years. A program that runs schools out of senior centers has said a lot about it. ____18____ Dawn Carr, a sociology professor, said most older people get much from practical help—with new technology, for instance—their younger friends offered. ____19____ Having fun with someone decades younger definitely takes off their pressure to “act their age”. ____20____ Lila, aged 75, was proud that her life experiences prepared her to give advice to her young friend with depression, for which the young was grateful. Also, older friends offer more examples of what growing up can look like. If someone’s parents are the only older people they know well, they might fail to picture other possibilities. A greater pool of older friends can help young people create their own blueprint. A. You befriend those who live around. B. They’re all roughly the same age as you. C. Others might find joy in exposure to new ideas. D. Brought closer, both see more than one benefit. E. Younger friends can be a reminder of past selves. F. Forming these kinds of friendship is particularly hard today. G. Indeed, intergenerational relationship is never a one-way street. 【答案】16. B 17. E 18. D 19. C 20. G 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了老年人和年轻人交朋友给双方都会带来的好处。 【16题详解】 根据上文“Regardless of how you met these people, they most likely have one key thing in common (不管你是怎么认识这些人的，他们很可能有一个关键的共同点)”以及后文“A 2023 study found that, for those aged 21 to 30, over 80 percent in their social circles, were born within five years of them. Moreover, nearly 63 percent of adults have no close friends 15 years older or younger than them. (2023年的一项研究发现，对于21岁至30岁的人来说，社交圈中超过80%的人是在5年内出生的。此外，近63%的成年人没有比自己大或小15岁的亲密朋友。)”可知，本句主要说明上文提到的共同点是什么，结合后文的研究可知这些人都年纪接近。故B选项“他们都和你差不多大。”符合语境，故选B。 【17题详解】 根据后文“Of course, the ones that are older might offer a brief look into the coming years. (当然，那些年龄较大的可能会让我们对未来几年有一个简要的了解。)”可知，后文提到了年龄大的朋友会让我们了解未来，与此对应的，可知本句是正在说明年轻的朋友会让我们想起过去。故E选项“年轻的朋友可以提醒你过去的自己。”符合语境，故选E。 【18题详解】 根据上文“A program that runs schools out of senior centers has said a lot about it. (一个在老年中心外开办学校的项目对此做了很多介绍。)”以及后文“Dawn Carr, a sociology professor, said most older people get much from practical help—with new technology, for instance—their younger friends offered. (社会学教授道恩•卡尔说，大多数老年人从年轻朋友提供的实际帮助中获益良多，比如新技术。)”可知，本句主要说明项目介绍了老年人和年轻人相处会得到好处。故D选项“拉近距离，两者都看到了不止一个好处。”符合语境，故选D。 【19题详解】 根据后文“Having fun with someone decades younger definitely takes off their pressure to “act their age”. (和比自己小几十岁的人玩得开心，绝对可以减轻他们“表现得像同龄人”的压力。)”可知，后文提到了年纪大的人和比自己小几十岁的人玩得开心，可以减轻心理压力，即心理层面的好处。故C选项“其他人可能会从接触新思想中找到乐趣。”符合语境，故选C。 【20题详解】 根据本段内容“Lila, aged 75, was proud that her life experiences prepared her to give advice to her young friend with depression, for which the young was grateful. Also, older friends offer more examples of what growing up can look like. If someone’s parents are the only older people they know well, they might fail to picture other possibilities. A greater pool of older friends can help young people create their own blueprint. (75岁的莱拉很自豪，她的生活经历使她能够给患有抑郁症的年轻朋友提供建议，年轻人对此很感激。此外，年长的朋友提供了更多成长的例子。如果某人的父母是他们唯一熟悉的老年人，他们可能无法想象其他可能性。更多的年长朋友可以帮助年轻人创造自己的蓝图。)”结合上文主要论述了年轻人给老年人带来的好处，后文则主要提到了老年人对年轻人的好处，可知带来的好处不是单向的。故G选项“的确，代际关系从来不是单行道。”符合语境，故选G。 第三部分 语言运用（共两节, 满分30分） 第一节（共15小题；每小题1分, 满分15分） 阅读下面短文, 从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 I was learning at Western University in London when I was 20 years old, and it was my third year there.

At an early age, she was crazy about singing. Whenever she had a chance, she would sing to her heart’s content. Her sweet and charming voice tended to get people around attracted to her songs. Living in a small city, I took several odd jobs, determined to do everything in my power to support her. Soon after Jane attended school, her music teacher Mary noticed her talent by chance and volunteered to give her some guidance on how to sing. Jane practiced so hard that before long she made great progress in singing. Unfortunately, one noon a year later, Jane was crossing the street when a careless driver knocked her down. She was rushed to hospital. When I hurried there, the doctor told me that my daughter would probably not stand on her own feet. I froze with shock, feeling as if I had been thrown into a dark world. Weak and dizzy, I was about to fall to the ground when someone took hold of me. It was Mary, who got the news and raced here. She comforted me, saying firmly, “Grace, Jane needs you. You must stay calm and strong.” I nodded. Having calmed down, I entered the ward with Mary. That night, Jane recovered her consciousness (知觉) and opened her eyes. Holding her hand, I said, “My dear, everything would be fine.” Mary comforted her gently, “I know you are a strong girl, Jane. Don’t worry. We’ll be standing by you.” I was heartbroken to see tears streaming down Jane’s cheeks. After two months, we returned home from hospital. Her teachers and friends frequently visited her. Jane eventually accepted the fact that she would have to get around in a wheelchair. Never did she refer to the subject of singing again. I knew she was a nice and understanding girl, who was afraid that talking about her original dream would upset the two of us. 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。 One day, however, Mary came with good news. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ When the host announced it was Jane’s turn, she was wheeled onto the stage. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 One day, however, Mary came with good news. She told Jane the school music festival was to be held the next month and that her classmates all expected her to sing on behalf of her class. Jane’s eyes sparkled but responded doubtfully, “Can I...?” Mary and I immediately assured her that she could make it. In the following month, with the help of Mary, Jane kept on practicing singing. Beautiful songs echoed in our house again and smiles began to appear on her face. Finally the big day came when she could present herself. When the host announced it was Jane’s turn, she was wheeled onto the stage. Jane was greeted with warm applause. As she began to sing, the audience got absorbed in her beautiful voice. Seconds after her performance, all the audience rose with thunderous cheers. When wheeled off stage, Jane received praise and bunches of flowers from her teachers and classmates. Jane was moved to tears. The kindness and encouragement from her teachers and classmates stimulated Jane’s enthusiasm for life, making her regain confidence in pursuing her original dream, which I will support wholeheartedly. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了作者的女儿简梦想成为歌手，在她的音乐老师玛丽的帮助下，简为了她的梦想努力取得进步。突然有一天，简遭遇了车祸，以后都不能自己站起来了，必须坐轮椅四处走动，简再也没有提过唱歌的话题。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“然而，有一天，玛丽带来了好消息。”可知，第一段可描写玛丽告诉简希望她代表班级唱歌，简在玛丽的帮助下继续练习，终于可以展示自己了。 ②由第二段首句内容“当主持人宣布轮到简时，她被推上了舞台。”可知，第二段可描写简的歌声得到了老师和同学们的赞扬，简重新找回了最初追求梦想的信心。 2.续写线索：好消息——简怀疑自己——练习唱歌——开始表演——得到赞扬——找到信心 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①希望：expect/hope/wish ②回答：respond/reply/answer ③保证：assure/guarantee/ensure 情绪类 ①眼睛闪闪发光：eyes sparkle/eyes glitter ②感动：move/touch 【点睛】[高分句型1]As she began to sing, the audience got absorbed in her beautiful voice.（由连接词as引导时间状语从句） [高分句型2]The kindness and encouragement from her teachers and classmates stimulated Jane’s enthusiasm for life, making her regain confidence in pursuing her original dream, which I will support wholeheartedly.（由关系代词which引导非限制性定语从句） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 2025届高三11月校内联考英语试题 本试卷满分120分 考试用时120分钟 第二部分 阅读（共两节，满分50分） 第一节（共15小题；每小题2.5分，满分37.5分） 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 A Festivals to Attend in Tennessee This Year Tin Pan South Songwriter’s Festival Music fans come from all over the world to experience the songs and stories about their favorite hits straight from the incredibly talented songwriters that penned them.

B The new president of Harvard University is the son of an Eastern European refugee and Auschwitz (奥斯威辛) survivor — Lawrence S. Bacow. His father worked full time while attending a state college in Detroit at night to earn his degree. Bacow, the former president of Tufts University, has taken over Harvard at a time when higher education is under attack for being financially out of reach to many Americans. But Bacow said his family’s journey had reflected the power of college education to transform generations and the opportunities that have historically been available in the United States. “My parents came to this country with almost nothing,” Bacow said. “I wouldn’t be here if this country had not been open to people like my parents at that time. Nor would I if my father hadn’t had the opportunity to get the college education.” Bacow grew up in Pontiac, Michigan. His father’s family fled anti-Jewish (反犹太的) violence in Minsk, then part of the Soviet Union, before the start of World War II and went to the United States. His mother arrived in Brooklyn at age 19, having survived Auschwitz concentration camp. She was the only Jew from her town to have survived the war. Yet Bacow, who is married with two sons, said that while growing up in Michigan, he had a happy childhood, entering science fairs as a child and building radios like his dad. Bacow has spent most of his professional career at MIT, Harvard and Tufts. He was a professor of environmental studies at MIT, and later a principal at the university. He led Tufts from 2001 to 2011. At Tufts, Bacow earned a reputation for shaking up a sleepy university that was being overshadowed by its peers in Boston. He is also credited with leading it through both 9/11 and the 2008 financial crisis. As the Tufts president, Bacow traveled around the country, reaching out to alumni (校友), and he urged his faculty and deans to do the same, in an effort to boost donations to finance Tufts’ academic ambitions. He raised more than $20 million for faculty recruitment, attracting up-and-coming professors by offering junior faculty perks (福利), such as long academic leaves that they couldn’t get elsewhere. Under Bacow’s leadership, Tufts spent millions on labs and libraries. He also made addresses nationally about the need to make higher education more accessible and affordable to low-income students. 4. The reason why Bacow appreciates college education is that . A. college education is out of reach to many Americans B. his family changed their fate due to college education C. few opportunities were available when his father came into the country D. a college degree helped his mother survive Auschwitz 5. What can we infer from the passage? A The fellow townspeople of Bacow were all killed besides his mother. B. Bacow’s mother stimulated his interest in science. C. Bacow’s father was good at working with electronics. D Bacow’s father came to the U.S. after World War II broke out. 6. The underlined word “shaking up” in paragraph 5 probably means . A. reactivating B. causing C. damaging D. taking over 7. What is this passage mainly about? A. How to be admitted to Harvard University. B. The history of Bacow’s family. C. The art of Bacow’s leadership in Tufts. D. Bacow’s way to individual success. C Since young children went back to school across Sweden recently, many of their teachers have been putting a new emphasis on printed books, quiet reading time and handwriting practice, and devoting less time to tablets, independent online research and keyboarding skills. The return to more traditional ways of learning is a response to politicians and experts questioning whether Sweden’s hyper-digitalized approach to education, including the introduction of tablets in nursery schools, had led to a decline in basic skills. Sweden’s minister for schools, Lotta Edholm was one of the biggest critics of the all-out embrace of technology. “Sweden’s students need more textbooks,” Edholm said in March. “Physical books are important for student learning.” The minister announced in August that the government wanted to change the decision by the national agency for education to make digital devices compulsory in preschools. It plans to go further and to completely end digital learning for children under age six, the ministry has told the Associated Press. Although Sweden’s students score above the European average for reading ability, an international assessment of fourth-grade reading levels, the Progress in International Reading Literacy Study (PIRLS), highlighted a decline among Sweden’s children between 2016 and 2021. In comparison, Singapore — which topped the rankings — improved its PIRLS reading scores from 576 to 587 during the same period, and England’s average reading achievement score fell only slightly, from 559 in 2016 to 558 in 2021. An overuse of screens during school lessons may cause youngsters to fall behind in core subjects, education experts say. “There’s clear scientific evidence that digital tools impair rather than enhance student learning,” Sweden’s Karolinska Institute, a highly respected medical school focused on research, said in a statement in August on the country’s national digitalization strategy in education. “We believe the focus should return to acquiring knowledge through printed textbooks and teacher expertise, rather than acquiring knowledge primarily from freely available digital sources that have not been checked for accuracy.” the school added. 8. Why do Swedish schools return to paper books? A. To cater to parents’ increasing needs. B. To help with children’s independent learning. C To overcome children’s addiction to digital tools. D. To avoid possible decline in children’s basic skills. 9. What does the underlined words “all-out embrace” mean in Paragraph 3? A. Total acceptance. B. Creative use. C. Rapid development. D. Serious addiction. 10. What might Karolinska Institute agree with? A. Teachers should acquire more knowledge. B. Knowledge from digital tools may not be reliable. C. Digital tools smooth out learning barriers for children. D. The accessibility to digital sources should be improved. 11. Which of the following is a suitable title for the text? A. Swedish Children’s Return to Paper B. Problems with Children’s Education C. Popularity of Digitalization in Sweden D. Enhancement of Teaching Strategies in Sweden D Every year, about 15 billion trees are cut down to make way for agriculture, mining, logging. and urban expansion. Such mass deforestation has accelerated global warming and endangered the survival of millions of species. Though many nations, organizations, and even individuals have tried, no one could plant enough trees to make up for that loss — but some innovative entrepreneurs are working on a high-tech solution. BioCarbon Engineering (BCE), a U.K.-based start-up, has developed a technique that could plant one billion trees per year. The method? Drones (无人机). Current tree-planting programs "are just not fast enough," said Irina Fedorenko, a co-founder of the company. "But our technology is automated, so we can scale up quite realistically and quite quickly." First, a drone scans the land and develops a 3-D map of the area. Then, using the data from this "smart map", the team develops an algorithm (算法) for a unique planting pattern. A drone uses the algorithm to carry out the planting strategy. The drone flies about six feet above the ground, firing growing seeds at a speed that will get them under the soil. The species planted by drone has a better survival rate than helicopter spreading that's more commonly used. Some species even have survival rates nearly identical to hand planting. With GPS and imaging technologies, experts agree that drones have become useful for accurately mapping large areas of land and measuring tree growth. But some scientists are more skeptical about their success as a planting technology to tackle deforestation on a large scale. After all, they only have so much range and battery life. "Drones are good for measuring secondary growth and looking at where the forest is coming back, but you fight deforestation at a socioeconomic level," says Arturo Sanchez, director of the University of Alberta's Center for Earth Observation and Sciences. "The issue of climate change is not forest restoration, the issue is energy. It is controlling coal plants, power plants, automobile emissions. Planting trees is very important, but when you look at the distribution of CO₂ emissions, deforestation accounts for 10 to 15 percent. The rest is energy. That's what needs to be controlled." 12. What is the author's purpose in mentioning many trees are cut down? A To appeal to us to stop cutting down trees. B. To demonstrate the widespread use of trees. C. To show the urgency of planting sufficient trees. D. To illustrate the effect of economic development on forests. 13. What can we know about BCE's planting strategy? A. Drones can't grow trees faster than current programs. B. Drones accurately map the land prior to planting. C. Drones grow seeds six feet beneath the ground. D. Drones make seeds survive better than hand planting. 14. What is some experts' attitude towards BCE's way to restore forests completely? A. Doubtful. B. Optimistic. C. Carefree. D. Intolerant. 15. Which statement will Arturo Sanchez most probably agree with? A. Restoring forest is key to tackling climate change. B. More coal plants are needed to generate abundant energy. C. A major part of CO₂ emissions results from deforestation. D. Coal plants and cars emissions should be restricted. 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。 When you think of your closest friends, who will come to your mind? Perhaps your college roommates or the neighbor you played with as a child. Regardless of how you met these people, they most likely have one key thing in common: ____16____ A 2023 study found that, for those aged 21 to 30, over 80 percent in their social circles, were born within five years of them. Moreover, nearly 63 percent of adults have no close friends 15 years older or younger than them. Spending our time with such a narrow group of people can fuel age segregation and increase our loneliness. These limitations also keep us from other generations’ mindsets and potentially surprising points of connection. ____17____ Of course, the ones that are older might offer a brief look into the coming years. A program that runs schools out of senior centers has said a lot about it. ____18____ Dawn Carr, a sociology professor, said most older people get much from practical help—with new technology, for instance—their younger friends offered. ____19____ Having fun with someone decades younger definitely takes off their pressure to “act their age”. ____20____ Lila, aged 75, was proud that her life experiences prepared her to give advice to her young friend with depression, for which the young was grateful. Also, older friends offer more examples of what growing up can look like. If someone’s parents are the only older people they know well, they might fail to picture other possibilities. A greater pool of older friends can help young people create their own blueprint. A. You befriend those who live around. B. They’re all roughly the same age as you. C. Others might find joy in exposure to new ideas. D. Brought closer, both see more than one benefit. E. Younger friends can be a reminder of past selves. F. Forming these kinds of friendship is particularly hard today. G. Indeed, intergenerational relationship is never a one-way street. 第三部分 语言运用（共两节, 满分30分） 第一节（共15小题；每小题1分, 满分15分） 阅读下面短文, 从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 I was learning at Western University in London when I was 20 years old, and it was my third year there.

At an early age, she was crazy about singing. Whenever she had a chance, she would sing to her heart’s content. Her sweet and charming voice tended to get people around attracted to her songs. Living in a small city, I took several odd jobs, determined to do everything in my power to support her. Soon after Jane attended school, her music teacher Mary noticed her talent by chance and volunteered to give her some guidance on how to sing. Jane practiced so hard that before long she made great progress in singing. Unfortunately, one noon a year later, Jane was crossing the street when a careless driver knocked her down. She was rushed to hospital. When I hurried there, the doctor told me that my daughter would probably not stand on her own feet. I froze with shock, feeling as if I had been thrown into a dark world. Weak and dizzy, I was about to fall to the ground when someone took hold of me. It was Mary, who got the news and raced here. She comforted me, saying firmly, “Grace, Jane needs you. You must stay calm and strong.” I nodded. Having calmed down, I entered the ward with Mary. That night, Jane recovered her consciousness (知觉) and opened her eyes. Holding her hand, I said, “My dear, everything would be fine.” Mary comforted her gently, “I know you are a strong girl, Jane. Don’t worry. We’ll be standing by you.” I was heartbroken to see tears streaming down Jane’s cheeks. After two months, we returned home from hospital. Her teachers and friends frequently visited her. Jane eventually accepted the fact that she would have to get around in a wheelchair. Never did she refer to the subject of singing again. I knew she was a nice and understanding girl, who was afraid that talking about her original dream would upset the two of us. 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。 One day, however, Mary came with good news. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ When the host announced it was Jane’s turn, she was wheeled onto the stage. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
