B “If you could have any three things, what would you want?” Eleven-year-old Ruby Kate Chitsey loves asking that question, but it’s not a game she plays at recess（课间）. She asks it at nursing homes in the Harrison, Arkansas, where she lives. Even more amazing, she then sets out to make the residents’ wishes come true. Ruby Kate often tags along with her mother, Amanda, who works at nursing home in the summer. “I’ve never found them scary at all, so I’m able to just go up to them and ask if they need anything,” she says. Last May, Ruby K ate noticed a resident named Pearl staring out a window. She seemed sad. “What are you looking at?” Ruby Kate asked. Pearl said she was watching her dog being led away by his new owner after a visit. Pearl didn’t know when she would see her dog again. Pearl was a medicaid recipient, who got only $40 a month to spend on personal items. Ruby Kate and Amanda asked around and discovered that many residents are unable to afford even the smallest luxuries. So Ruby Kate decided to do something about it. She started by asking residents what three things they wanted most. “That’s a lot simpler than going, ‘Hey, what do you want?’” she explains. “They can understand you better.” Amanda worried that people would ask for things an 11-year-old wouldn’t be able to provide. Instead, they asked for chocolate bars, McDonald’s fries, and even just a prayer. “It broke me as a human,” Amanda says. “We left the nursing home that day and went straight to a store and bought as many items as we could.” Using their own money, the Chitseys granted the wishes of about 100 people in three months. Then they started asking for donations. The good people of Harrison responded enthusiastically, and they raised $20,000 in 24 hours and more than $250,000 in five months. 4. Why does Ruby often ask the same question? A. She likes hearing everyone’s stories. B. It makes her famous in the community. C. She finds it amusing to repeat the question. D. She wants to help residents in nursing homes. 5. What can be inferred about Pearl in paragraph 4? A. Pearl was in good health. B. Pearl couldn’t afford to keep her dog. C. Pearl was too old to raise a dog. D. Pearl sold her dog for small luxuries. 6. What moved Amanda most? A. The residents’ gratitude for Amanda’s assistance. B. The popularity Ruby achieved for her good deeds. C. The simplicity and sincerity of the residents’ requests. D. The residents’ enthusiasm and optimism in difficult times. 7. What message does the author seem to convey in the text? A. Action speak louder than words. B. A friend in need is a friend indeed. C. Kindness is the language of the heart. D. Nothing is difficult to a willing heart. C An artificial intelligence can decode (解码) words and sentences from brain activity with surprising accuracy. Using only a few seconds of brain activity data, the AI guesses what a person has heard. It lists the correct answer in its top 10 possibilities, researchers found in a primary study. Developed by the parent company of Facebook, Meta, the AI could eventually be used to help thousands of people around the world who are unable to communicate through speech, typing or gestures. Most existing technologies to help such patients communicate require risky brain surgeries to put in electrodes (电极). This new approach “could provide a possible path to help patients with communication problems, avoiding the use of surgeries,” says neuroscientist Jean-Rémi King, a Meta AI researcher. King and his colleagues trained a computational tool, also known as a language model, to detect words and sentences on 56,000 hours of speech recordings from 53 languages. The team applied an AI with this language model to databases from four institutions that included brain activity from 169 volunteers. In these databases, participants listened to various stories and sentences, while the people’s brains were scanned by magnetoencephalography (MEG) (脑磁图). Then with the help of a computational method that helps account for physical differences among actual brains, the team tried to decode what participants had heard using just three seconds of brain activity data from each person. The team instructed the AI to match up the speech sounds from the story recordings with patterns of brain activity that the AI computed as corresponding to what people were hearing. It then made predictions about what the person might have been hearing during that short time, given more than 1,000 possibilities. Using MEG, the correct answer was in the AI’s top 10 guesses, the researchers found. “The new study is the decoding of speech recognition, not production,” King agrees. “Though speech production is the final goal, for now, we’re quite a long way away.” 8 Whom might the AI benefit? A. People unable to read. B. People who are unconscious. C People who can’t move around. D. People unable to communicate normally. 9. What is the main idea of paragraph 4? A. The purpose of the AI. B. The significance of the AI. C. The advantage of the AI. D. The working principle of the AI. 10. What does the AI require to make its prediction? A. Speech production. B. Top ten guesses. C. Patterns of brain activity. D. Disabled volunteers. 11. What is the best title for the text? A. A New Way to Decode Speech B. The Employment of MEG Technology C. An Advance in Artificial Intelligence D. A Solution to Communication Problems D Psychologists have defined nostalgia (怀旧) as self-conscious, socially emotional, bittersweet but mainly positive. It develops out of happy memories mixed with a longing for the past and the close relationships we had back then. Often, nostalgia involves five senses. For example, the smell of autumn leaves might spark an intense longing for your childhood home. Almost everyone experiences nostalgia, although its object tends to vary throughout life. One survey conducted by the psychologist Krystine Irene Batcho found that younger people felt more nostalgia for pets, toys, and holidays than did older people, who felt it more strongly for music. I came of age in the 1980s, and even songs I found hopelessly annoying back then can fill me with nostalgic emotions. As my colleague Julie Beck has written, nostalgia was originally viewed as an emotional disorder when it was first defined in the late 17th century. And, crucially, it often occurs when people are experiencing negative moods or having bad experiences. Loneliness can be a trigger, as researchers found in 2008. Another is bad weather. However, despite its association with negative emotions, nostalgia does not cause or increase unhappiness. Rather, nostalgia is a defense response to unhappiness, one that brings relief from a negative mood. Psychologists writing in the Journal of Personality and Social Psychology in 2006 found that stirring nostalgia in experiments strengthened people’s social bonds, boosted their positive feelings about themselves, and improved their mood. Similar research has shown that when people feel nostalgia, it can fire their sense of life’s meaning, lower an existential (存在主义的) reaction to the idea of death, increase spirituality, and raise optimism. Scholars aren’t sure exactly why nostalgia works; some have inferred that recalling happy memories strengthens “valued aspects of the self” in situations when we might otherwise feel lonely or unworthy. Either way, its emotional intensity allows the joy of the past to overpower the unpleasantness of the present, a little escapism that helps get us through the bad times. 12. What do the psychologists think of nostalgia? A. Always painful. B. Primarily positive. C. Seldom intense. D. Usually unconscious. 13. Why is the author’s experience mentioned in paragraph 2? A. To show the objects of nostalgia change with age. B. To illustrate annoying music often leads to nostalgia. C. To highlight the young are more likely to be nostalgic. D. To demonstrate nostalgia has an impact on emotions. 14. In which situation may people easily feel nostalgia? A. Attending a lively class. B. Engaging in a family reunion. C. Staying alone in an empty room. D. Joining in a joyful birthday party. 15. What may be a benefit of nostalgia? A. Maintaining self-respect. B. Shaping personal insights. C. Escaping from daily chaos. D. Enhancing one’s self-worth. 第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Sometimes you may feel like privacy, as a concept, has disappeared from the world. ____16____ Thus they can serve up frighteningly accurate ads that make you think your phone’s microphone has been turned on and marketers are actively listening to your every word. They’re not— yet. But they are engaged in something called “datamining”. This is the process of collecting enormous amounts of unknown data from your every connected activity and then analyzing that data to fill your life with advertisements and other influences. Datamining gives away your privacy. You may find it quite impossible to avoid. ____17____ Check settings carefully. When you install (安装) an app on your device, you probably click through a series of permissions, But an app may require many unnecessary permissions. You may doubt whether a game really needs access to your microphone, location, and camera. ____18____ Take the next line of defense: stop installing garbage free apps and spend that dollar. ____19____ Social media is very obviously a landfill when it comes to privacy. If your main goal on social media is to connect with friends or colleagues, restrict the reach of your posts to just those folks. And don’t expose your travel plans, spending habits, or product reviews out into the universe. Remember to log out. ____20____ And as long as you’re signed in, that ability continues — even if you leave the site. It’s an inconvenience indeed, but logging out of those services when you’re not actively using them and clearing cookies and history regularly can slowdown the mining of data. A. Be “boring” on social media. B. Mind your comments on social media. C. But you can minimize your exposure to it. D. Advertisers certainly seem to know everything about you. E. You should assume it is more of a data-mining app than anything else. F. Upon logging into platforms like Google, your activities are monitored. G. Online platforms have some hidden traps in which you will be cheated often. 第三部分 语言知识运用(共两节，满分30分) 第一节 完形填空(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。 Feeding the stray cats (流浪猫) in my neighborhood used to be part of my daily routine.

He had been on the road visiting people for more than a month without going home. He couldn’t wait to get back to see his wife and children. It was coming up on Mother’s Day, and he usually tried to make it “back home”, but this year he was just too busy and too tired. The day when he was driving in a small town, he saw a flower shop. He said to himself, “I know what I will do. I’ll send my mother some roses.” He stopped and went into the flower shop and saw a young man talking to the girl in it. “How many roses can I get for five dollars, Miss?” the young man asked. The girl was trying to explain that roses were expensive. Maybe the young man would be happy with something else. “No. I have to have roses,” he said. “My mom was badly sick last year and I didn’t get to spend much time with her. I want to get something special. It has to be red roses, because that is her favorite.” He was stubborn. The girl in the shop looked up at Eric and was just shaking her head. Something inside of Eric was touched by the boy’s voice. He wanted to get those roses so badly. Eric had been lucky in his business, and he looked at the girl and silently said that he would pay for the young man’s roses. The girl looked at the young man and said, “OK, I will give you a dozen red roses for your dollars.” The young man almost jumped into the air. He took the flowers and ran down the store. It was worth more than fifty dollars just to see that kind of excitement. Eric ordered his own flowers and asked the girl to have it delivered to his mother. After that, with a relief he drove down the road. Not long after his driving, he saw the young man walking to a graveyard (墓地). 46. 根据文本内容从方框中选择恰当的词并用其正确形式填入文本图示中，每词仅用一次有两词为多余选项。 try favor bad touch excited deliver tiring he walk special drive explain Before stepping into the flower shop.

Last May, Ruby K ate noticed a resident named Pearl staring out a window. She seemed sad. “What are you looking at?” Ruby Kate asked. Pearl said she was watching her dog being led away by his new owner after a visit. Pearl didn’t know when she would see her dog again. Pearl was a medicaid recipient, who got only $40 a month to spend on personal items. Ruby Kate and Amanda asked around and discovered that many residents are unable to afford even the smallest luxuries. So Ruby Kate decided to do something about it. She started by asking residents what three things they wanted most. “That’s a lot simpler than going, ‘Hey, what do you want?’” she explains. “They can understand you better.” Amanda worried that people would ask for things an 11-year-old wouldn’t be able to provide. Instead, they asked for chocolate bars, McDonald’s fries, and even just a prayer. “It broke me as a human,” Amanda says. “We left the nursing home that day and went straight to a store and bought as many items as we could.” Using their own money, the Chitseys granted the wishes of about 100 people in three months. Then they started asking for donations. The good people of Harrison responded enthusiastically, and they raised $20,000 in 24 hours and more than $250,000 in five months. 4. Why does Ruby often ask the same question? A. She likes hearing everyone’s stories. B. It makes her famous in the community. C. She finds it amusing to repeat the question. D. She wants to help residents in nursing homes. 5. What can be inferred about Pearl in paragraph 4? A. Pearl was in good health. B. Pearl couldn’t afford to keep her dog. C. Pearl was too old to raise a dog. D. Pearl sold her dog for small luxuries. 6. What moved Amanda most? A. The residents’ gratitude for Amanda’s assistance. B. The popularity Ruby achieved for her good deeds. C. The simplicity and sincerity of the residents’ requests. D. The residents’ enthusiasm and optimism in difficult times. 7. What message does the author seem to convey in the text? A. Action speak louder than words. B. A friend in need is a friend indeed. C. Kindness is the language of the heart. D. Nothing is difficult to a willing heart. 【答案】4. D 5. B 6. C 7. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章介绍的是11岁的女孩Ruby在养老院帮助老人们实现愿望，展现善良和关爱。 【4题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中“Eleven-year-old Ruby Kate Chitsey loves asking that question, but it’s not a game she plays at recess(课间). She asks it at nursing homes in the Harrison, Arkansas, where she lives. Even more amazing, she then sets out to make the residents’ wishes come true.( 11岁的Ruby Kate Chitsey喜欢问这个问题，但这不是她在课间休息时玩的游戏。她在自己居住的阿肯色州哈里森的养老院问这个问题。更神奇的是，她开始着手让居民们的愿望成真。)”可知，她总是问同样的问题，并不是在课间休息时玩的游戏，而是开始着手让居民们的愿望成真即帮助老人们满足实现他们的愿望，来帮助养老院的居民们。故选D。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段中“Pearl said she was watching her dog being led away by his new owner after a visit. Pearl didn’t know when she would see her dog again.( Pearl说她看着她的狗被新主人牵走了，她不知道什么时候能再见到她的狗。)”以及“Pearl was a medicaid recipient, who got only $40 a month to spend on personal items. Ruby Kate and Amanda asked around and discovered that many residents are unable to afford even the smallest luxuries. So Ruby Kate decided to do something about it.( Pearl是一个Medicaid的受益人，每个月只能拿到40美元用来购买个人物品。Ruby Kate和Amanda四处打听后发现很多居民连最小的奢侈品都买不起。于是Ruby Kate决定采取行动。)”可知，Pearl是一个Medicaid的受益人，每个月只能拿到40美元用来购买个人物品，看着自己心爱的狗狗被新主人牵走了，由此推断Pearl养不起自己的狗狗。故选B。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段“She started by asking residents what three things they wanted most. “That’s a lot simpler than going, ‘Hey, what do you want?’” she explains. “They can understand you better.” Amanda worried that people would ask for things an 11-year-old wouldn’t be able to provide. Instead, they asked for chocolate bars, McDonald’s fries, and even just a prayer.( 她开始询问居民最想要的三件事情。她解释说：“这比问‘嘿，你想要什么？’要简单得多。他们可以更好地理解你。”Amanda担心人们会要求她无法提供的东西。相反，他们要求巧克力棒、麦当劳薯条，甚至只是一声祷告。)”可知，Amanda本以为他们会要求一些自己无法提供的东西，相反，他们只要求的是巧克力，麦当劳薯条，甚至是一个祈祷，因此她最感动的事居民们简单而真诚的请求。故选C。 【7题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，文章介绍的是11岁的女孩Ruby在养老院帮助老人们实现愿望，展现善良和关爱。C选项“Kindness is the language of the heart.(善良是心灵的语言。)”强调了善良和关爱在人际交往中的重要性，与文章的主题相符。故选C。 C An artificial intelligence can decode (解码) words and sentences from brain activity with surprising accuracy. Using only a few seconds of brain activity data, the AI guesses what a person has heard. It lists the correct answer in its top 10 possibilities, researchers found in a primary study. Developed by the parent company of Facebook, Meta, the AI could eventually be used to help thousands of people around the world who are unable to communicate through speech, typing or gestures. Most existing technologies to help such patients communicate require risky brain surgeries to put in electrodes (电极). This new approach “could provide a possible path to help patients with communication problems, avoiding the use of surgeries,” says neuroscientist Jean-Rémi King, a Meta AI researcher. King and his colleagues trained a computational tool, also known as a language model, to detect words and sentences on 56,000 hours of speech recordings from 53 languages. The team applied an AI with this language model to databases from four institutions that included brain activity from 169 volunteers. In these databases, participants listened to various stories and sentences, while the people’s brains were scanned by magnetoencephalography (MEG) (脑磁图). Then with the help of a computational method that helps account for physical differences among actual brains, the team tried to decode what participants had heard using just three seconds of brain activity data from each person. The team instructed the AI to match up the speech sounds from the story recordings with patterns of brain activity that the AI computed as corresponding to what people were hearing. It then made predictions about what the person might have been hearing during that short time, given more than 1,000 possibilities. Using MEG, the correct answer was in the AI’s top 10 guesses, the researchers found. “The new study is the decoding of speech recognition, not production,” King agrees. “Though speech production is the final goal, for now, we’re quite a long way away.” 8. Whom might the AI benefit? A. People unable to read. B. People who are unconscious. C. People who can’t move around. D. People unable to communicate normally. 9. What is the main idea of paragraph 4? A. The purpose of the AI. B. The significance of the AI. C. The advantage of the AI. D. The working principle of the AI. 10. What does the AI require to make its prediction? A. Speech production. B. Top ten guesses. C. Patterns of brain activity. D. Disabled volunteers. 11. What is the best title for the text? A. A New Way to Decode Speech B. The Employment of MEG Technology C. An Advance in Artificial Intelligence D. A Solution to Communication Problems 【答案】8. D 9. D 10. C 11. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，文章主要讲述了AI通过脑活动数据解码语言的研究进展及其对沟通障碍者的潜在帮助。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“Developed by the parent company of Facebook, Meta, the AI could eventually be used to help thousands of people around the world who are unable to communicate through speech, typing or gestures.(这款人工智能由Facebook的母公司Meta开发，最终可用于帮助全球成千上万无法通过语音、打字或手势进行交流的人)”可知，这款人工智能最终可用于帮助全球数千名无法正常交流的人，所以该人工智能可以使无法正常交流的人受益。故选D项。 【9题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第四段“Then with the help of a computational method that helps account for physical differences among actual brains, the team tried to decode what participants had heard using just three seconds of brain activity data from each person. The team instructed the AI to match up the speech sounds from the story recordings with patterns of brain activity that the AI computed as corresponding to what people were hearing. It then made predictions about what the person might have been hearing during that short time, given more than 1,000 possibilities. (然后，在一种有助于解释实际大脑之间物理差异的计算方法的帮助下，研究小组试图用每个人的三秒大脑活动数据来解码参与者所听到的内容。该团队指示人工智能将故事录音中的语音与人工智能计算出的与人们所听到的相对应的大脑活动模式相匹配。然后，在给定1000多种可能性的情况下，它预测了这个人在短时间内可能听到的内容)”可知，本段详细描述了研究团队借助一种计算方法，利用每个人三秒的大脑活动数据来解码参与者所听到的内容，指示人工智能将故事录音中的语音声音与大脑活动模式进行匹配，然后做出预测，这一系列内容主要阐述的是人工智能的工作原理。故选D项。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中“The team instructed the AI to match up the speech sounds from the story recordings with patterns of brain activity that the AI computed as corresponding to what people were hearing.

Using only a few seconds of brain activity data, the AI guesses what a person has heard.(人工智能可以以惊人的准确度从大脑活动中解码单词和句子。只需要几秒钟的大脑活动数据，人工智能就能猜测出一个人听到了什么)”、第二段中“Developed by the parent company of Facebook, Meta, the AI could eventually be used to help thousands of people around the world who are unable to communicate through speech, typing or gestures.(这款人工智能由Facebook的母公司Meta开发，最终可用于帮助全球成千上万无法通过语音、打字或手势进行交流的人)”以及文章内容可知，文章主要介绍了一种能够从大脑活动中解码言语的人工智能，所以A选项“A New Way to Decode Speech(语音解码的新方法)”适合作为文章标题。故选A项。 D Psychologists have defined nostalgia (怀旧) as self-conscious, socially emotional, bittersweet but mainly positive. It develops out of happy memories mixed with a longing for the past and the close relationships we had back then. Often, nostalgia involves five senses. For example, the smell of autumn leaves might spark an intense longing for your childhood home. Almost everyone experiences nostalgia, although its object tends to vary throughout life. One survey conducted by the psychologist Krystine Irene Batcho found that younger people felt more nostalgia for pets, toys, and holidays than did older people, who felt it more strongly for music. I came of age in the 1980s, and even songs I found hopelessly annoying back then can fill me with nostalgic emotions. As my colleague Julie Beck has written, nostalgia was originally viewed as an emotional disorder when it was first defined in the late 17th century. And, crucially, it often occurs when people are experiencing negative moods or having bad experiences. Loneliness can be a trigger, as researchers found in 2008. Another is bad weather. However, despite its association with negative emotions, nostalgia does not cause or increase unhappiness. Rather, nostalgia is a defense response to unhappiness, one that brings relief from a negative mood. Psychologists writing in the Journal of Personality and Social Psychology in 2006 found that stirring nostalgia in experiments strengthened people’s social bonds, boosted their positive feelings about themselves, and improved their mood. Similar research has shown that when people feel nostalgia, it can fire their sense of life’s meaning, lower an existential (存在主义的) reaction to the idea of death, increase spirituality, and raise optimism. Scholars aren’t sure exactly why nostalgia works; some have inferred that recalling happy memories strengthens “valued aspects of the self” in situations when we might otherwise feel lonely or unworthy. Either way, its emotional intensity allows the joy of the past to overpower the unpleasantness of the present, a little escapism that helps get us through the bad times. 12. What do the psychologists think of nostalgia? A. Always painful. B. Primarily positive. C. Seldom intense. D. Usually unconscious. 13. Why is the author’s experience mentioned in paragraph 2? A. To show the objects of nostalgia change with age. B. To illustrate annoying music often leads to nostalgia. C. To highlight the young are more likely to be nostalgic. D. To demonstrate nostalgia has an impact on emotions. 14. In which situation may people easily feel nostalgia? A. Attending a lively class. B. Engaging in a family reunion. C. Staying alone in an empty room. D. Joining in a joyful birthday party. 15. What may be a benefit of nostalgia? A. Maintaining self-respect. B. Shaping personal insights. C. Escaping from daily chaos. D. Enhancing one’s self-worth. 【答案】12. B 13. A 14. C 15. D 【解析】 【导语】本文为一篇说明文，介绍了nostalgia (怀旧)是如何产生的，怀旧的特点及其好处。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第一段“Psychologists have defined nostalgia as self-conscious, socially emotional, bittersweet but mainly positive.(心理学家将怀旧定义为自我意识、社会情感、苦乐参半，但主要是积极的)”可知，心理学家认为怀旧主要是积极的。故选B。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第二段“Almost everyone experiences nostalgia, although its object tends to vary throughout life. One survey conducted by the psychologist Krystine Irene Batcho found that younger people felt more nostalgia for pets, toys, and holidays than did older people, who felt it more strongly for music. I came of age in the 1980s, and even songs I found hopelessly annoying back then can fill me with nostalgic emotions.(几乎每个人都会经历怀旧，尽管怀旧的对象在一生中往往会有所不同。心理学家Krystine Irene Batcho进行的一项调查发现，年轻人比老年人更怀念宠物、玩具和假期，老年人对音乐的怀念更强烈。我是在20世纪80年代长大的，即使是当时我觉得非常讨厌的歌曲也能让我充满怀旧的情绪)”可知，怀旧的对象在一生中往往会有所不同，年轻人比老年人更怀念宠物、玩具和假期，老年人对音乐的怀念更强烈，老歌曲引起作者的怀旧情绪，作者第二段用自己的例子说明怀旧的对象随年龄的变化。故选A。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第三段“And, crucially, it often occurs when people are experiencing negative moods or having bad experiences. Loneliness can be a trigger, as researchers found in 2008. Another is bad weather.(更重要的是，它通常发生在人们经历消极情绪或糟糕经历的时候。研究人员在2008年发现，孤独可能是诱因。另一个是坏天气)”可知，独自待在一个空房间里可能会引起人们的怀旧情绪。故选C。 【15题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章最后一段“Scholars aren’t sure exactly why nostalgia works; some have inferred that recalling happy memories strengthens “valued aspects of the self” in situations when we might otherwise feel lonely or unworthy. Either way, its emotional intensity allows the joy of the past to overpower the unpleasantness of the present, a little escapism that helps get us through the bad times.(学者们并不确定为什么怀旧会起作用；一些人推断，回忆快乐的记忆会在我们可能感到孤独或不值得的情况下加强“自我有价值的方面”。不管怎样，它的情感强度让过去的快乐压倒了现在的不愉快，这是帮助我们度过艰难时期的一点逃避主义)”可知，怀旧其中的一个好处是提升自我价值。故选D。 第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Sometimes you may feel like privacy, as a concept, has disappeared from the world. ____16____ Thus they can serve up frighteningly accurate ads that make you think your phone’s microphone has been turned on and marketers are actively listening to your every word. They’re not— yet. But they are engaged in something called “datamining”. This is the process of collecting enormous amounts of unknown data from your every connected activity and then analyzing that data to fill your life with advertisements and other influences. Datamining gives away your privacy. You may find it quite impossible to avoid. ____17____ Check settings carefully. When you install (安装) an app on your device, you probably click through a series of permissions, But an app may require many unnecessary permissions. You may doubt whether a game really needs access to your microphone, location, and camera. ____18____ Take the next line of defense: stop installing garbage free apps and spend that dollar. ____19____ Social media is very obviously a landfill when it comes to privacy. If your main goal on social media is to connect with friends or colleagues, restrict the reach of your posts to just those folks. And don’t expose your travel plans, spending habits, or product reviews out into the universe. Remember to log out. ____20____ And as long as you’re signed in, that ability continues — even if you leave the site. It’s an inconvenience indeed, but logging out of those services when you’re not actively using them and clearing cookies and history regularly can slowdown the mining of data. A Be “boring” on social media. B. Mind your comments on social media. C. But you can minimize your exposure to it. D. Advertisers certainly seem to know everything about you. E. You should assume it is more of a data-mining app than anything else. F. Upon logging into platforms like Google, your activities are monitored. G.

He had been on the road visiting people for more than a month without going home. He couldn’t wait to get back to see his wife and children. It was coming up on Mother’s Day, and he usually tried to make it “back home”, but this year he was just too busy and too tired. The day when he was driving in a small town, he saw a flower shop. He said to himself, “I know what I will do. I’ll send my mother some roses.” He stopped and went into the flower shop and saw a young man talking to the girl in it. “How many roses can I get for five dollars, Miss?” the young man asked. The girl was trying to explain that roses were expensive. Maybe the young man would be happy with something else. “No. I have to have roses,” he said. “My mom was badly sick last year and I didn’t get to spend much time with her. I want to get something special. It has to be red roses, because that is her favorite.” He was stubborn. The girl in the shop looked up at Eric and was just shaking her head. Something inside of Eric was touched by the boy’s voice. He wanted to get those roses so badly. Eric had been lucky in his business, and he looked at the girl and silently said that he would pay for the young man’s roses. The girl looked at the young man and said, “OK, I will give you a dozen red roses for your dollars.” The young man almost jumped into the air. He took the flowers and ran down the store. It was worth more than fifty dollars just to see that kind of excitement. Eric ordered his own flowers and asked the girl to have it delivered to his mother. After that, with a relief he drove down the road. Not long after his driving, he saw the young man walking to a graveyard (墓地). 46. 根据文本内容从方框中选择恰当的词并用其正确形式填入文本图示中，每词仅用一次有两词为多余选项。 try favor bad touch excited deliver tiring he walk special drive explain Before stepping into the flower shop.

(母亲节快到了，他通常会想办法“回家”，但今年他太忙了，也太累了。)”可知，作者今年太忙太累了而没有在母亲节的时候回家。空处需要形容词tired“劳累的”作表语。故填tired。 ②考查形容词性物主代词。根据第一段中“He said to himself, “I know what I will do. I’ll send my mother some roses.” (他对自己说：“我知道我会做什么。我会给我妈妈送一些玫瑰。”)”可知，作者决定送给他妈妈一些玫瑰。空处需要形容词性物主代词his“他的”，作定语。故填his。 ③考查动词。根据第二段“He stopped and went into the flower shop and saw a young man talking to the girl in it. “How many roses can I get for five dollars, Miss？” the young man asked. (他停下来走进花店，看到一个年轻人在和里面的女孩说话。“小姐，五美元能买到多少朵玫瑰？”年轻人问道。)”可知，作者在花店看到一个男士正试着用五美元买玫瑰花。空处需要动词try“尝试”，空处需要非谓语动词作宾语补足语，该动词和宾语之间为主动关系，所以用现在分词作宾语补足语。故填trying。 ④考查动词。根据第二段“The girl was trying to explain that roses were expensive. (女孩试图解释玫瑰很贵。)”可知，女孩正在尽量解释玫瑰花很贵。空处需要动词explain“解释”。try to do sth.“尽量作某事”。故填to explain。 ⑤考查名词。根据第三段“I want to get something special. It has to be red roses，because that is her favorite. (我想买点特别的。一定是红玫瑰，因为那是她的最爱。)”可知，红玫瑰是男士妈妈的最爱。由此可知，他坚持他妈妈的最爱是红玫瑰。空处需要名词favorite“特别喜爱的人（或物）”。故填favorite。 ⑥考查副词。根据第三段““No. I have to have roses, ” he said. “My mom was badly sick last year and I didn’t get to spend much time with her. (“不，我必须要玫瑰，”他说。“我妈妈去年病得很重，我没有太多时间陪她。”)”可知，男士的妈妈病的很重。由此可推知，他想要送给他妈妈红玫瑰是由于他妈妈病的很重。空处需要副词badly“严重地”，修饰形容词。故填badly。 ⑦考查动词。根据第四段“Something inside of Eric was touched by the boy’s voice. (男孩的声音触动了埃里克的内心。)”可知，男孩的声音触动了埃里克的内心。由此可知，Eric被男孩的声音感动，决定给男孩买玫瑰花。空处需要动词touch“感动”，在句中作谓语，句子为一般过去时态，和主语之间为被动关系，所以用一般过去时态的被动语态，主语为第三人称单数形式。故填was touched。 ⑧考查名词。根据倒数第二段“The young man almost jumped into the air. He took the flowers and ran down the store. It was worth more than fifty dollars just to see that kind of excitement. (那个年轻人几乎跳到空中。他拿着花沿着商店跑去。光是看到那种刺激就值五十多美元了。)”可知，男人因为能够买到玫瑰花而非常的兴奋。由此可知，男人兴奋地拿着玫瑰花离开了。空处需要名词excitement“兴奋”，和前面的介词in构成介词短语，在句中作状语。故填excitement。 ⑨考查动词。根据最后一段“Eric ordered his own flowers and asked the girl to have it delivered to his mother. (埃里克订购了自己的花，并要求女孩把它送到他的母亲。)”可知，作者订了花并让女孩送到了母亲那。空处需要动词deliver“投递”。空处需要非谓语动词作宾语补足语，该动词和宾语之间为被动关系，所以用过去分词。故填delivered。 ⑩考查动词。根据最后一段“After that, with a relief he drove down the road. Not long after his driving，he saw the young man walking to a graveyard (墓地). (在那之后，他如释重负地开车上路。开车后不久，他看到那个年轻人走向墓地。)”可知，买完花后，作者开车上路了。空处需要动词drive“驾驶”，在句中作谓语。句子是对过去事实的描述，所以用一般过去时态。故填drove。 【47题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“It was coming up on Mother’s Day, and he usually tried to make it “back home”, but this year he was just too busy and too tired. (母亲节快到了，他通常会想办法“回家”，但今年他太忙了，也太累了。)”可知，母亲节对于埃里克来说意味着要回家拜访母亲，并在那一天表示对母亲的爱。故答案为It was a time to visit his mother and show his love for her. 48题详解】 细节理解题。倒数第二段“It was worth more than fifty dollars just to see that kind of excitement. (光是看到这种兴奋就值50多美元。)”可知，作者帮助了男士后，感觉看到男士是如此兴奋，他觉得很值。故答案为He felt it was worth more than fifty dollars just to see the young man’s excitement. 【49题详解】 开放题。本题为开放题，答案不唯一，合理即可。故参考答案为He might visit his mother on the coming Mother’s Day in person. Because he saw the young man’s strong desire to show love to his mother despite her being no longer alive made him realize the importance of spending time with his mother while she was still around. 第五部分 书面表达(20分) 50. 假定你是李华，你的同学John因学习和生活问题感到身体不适，请你结合自己的生活体验，根据提示内容给他回复电子邮件，内容包括： 1. 健康的重要性； 2. 提出建议。 注意：1. 词数应为120词左右。 2. 可适当增加细节，以使行文连贯。 _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】Dear John, Learning that you have trouble in keeping healthy, I’m writing to offer you some practical suggestions.
