If you’re looking to get a jump ahead on the holds from your local library, here are just a few books we ‘re looking forward to. James by Percival Everett Celebrated author Percival Everett gives us Huckleberry Finn from Jim’s point of view. It’s far from a straight re-telling, though. Instead, Everett (but off his 2001 book Erasure being adapted into the film American Fiction) uses the beats of the original story to give us a send up of language and race.(Pub. March.19) The Familiar by Leigh Bardugo This standalone fantasy was inspired by the best-selling author’s own family history. It takes place during the Spanish Golden Age and follows a servant, hiding the fact that she can perform miracles. (Pub. Apr.9) Private Equity by Carrie Sun A memoir (回忆录) about the daughter of Chinese immigrants who ended up becoming an assistant to a billionaire hedge fund founder. It’s an examination of the hustle and tiring lifestyle that spreads American work culture, and the costs of extreme wealth. (Pub. Feh.13) Legacy by Uché Blackstock Uché Blackstock has had a long career in medicine as a doctor and as a professor of emergency medicine. Her account follows her growing up wanting nothing more than to be doctor, and discovering all parts of the systemic issues that lend to poorer health outcomes for Black Americans. (Pub, Jan.23) 1. What do we know about Percival Everett? A. He is famous for film making. B. He wrote James under the name of Jim. C. His works are focused on historical fiction. D. His literary works have significant influence. 2. What is the common characteristic of the last two books? A. They concern Black Americans. B. They are about real account of life. C. They reflect American work culture. D. They focus on unfair phenomenon in society. 3. Which book draws from the writer’s family background? A. James. B. The Familiar. C. Private Equity. D. Legacy. 【答案】1. D 2. B 3. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇应用文。文章主要介绍了2024年值得期待的几本书籍，并给出了每本书的简要描述和出版日期。 【1题详解】 推理判断题。根据“James by Percival Everett”部分中的“Celebrated author Percival Everett gives us Huckleberry Finn from Jim’s point of view. It’s far from a straight re -telling, though. Instead, Everett (but off his 2001 book Erasure being adapted into the film American Fiction) uses the beats of the original story to give us a send up of language and race. (著名作家Percival Everett从Jim的角度给我们带来了《哈克贝利·费恩历险记》。然而，这远不是一个直接的重新讲述。相反，Everett (2001年出版的《擦除》被改编成电影《美国小说》)利用原著故事的节奏给我们一种语言和种族的警示。)”可推测，Everett的作品具有显著的影响力。故选D。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。根据“Private Equity by Carrie Sun”部分中的“A memoir (回忆录) about the daughter of Chinese immigrants who ended up becoming an assistant to a billionaire hedge fund founder.(一本回忆录，讲述了中国移民的女儿最终成为亿万富翁对冲基金创始人的助理。)”以及“Legacy by Uché Blackstock”部分中的“Her account follows her growing up wanting nothing more than to be doctor, and discovering all parts of the systemic issues that lend to poorer health outcomes for Black Americans.(她的故事讲述了她的成长过程，她只想成为一名医生，并发现了导致美国黑人健康状况不佳的系统性问题的各个方面。)”可知，最后两本书《Private Equity by Carrie Sun》和《Legacy by Uché Blackstock》都是关于作者的真实生活经历的。前者是一本回忆录，讲述了华裔移民的女儿成为亿万富翁对冲基金创始人助理的故事；后者则是一位在医学领域有长期职业生涯的医生的自传，讲述了她从小就想成为医生的经历。因此，它们的共同特点是都是关于真实生活经历的叙述。故选B。 【3题详解】 细节理解题。根据“The Familiar by Leigh Bardugo”部分中的“This standalone fantasy was inspired by the best-selling author’s own family history. It takes place during the Spanish Golden Age and follows a servant, hiding the fact that she can perform miracles.(这本独立的奇幻小说的灵感来自于这位畅销书作者自己的家族史。故事发生在西班牙黄金时代，主人公跟随一个仆人，隐藏了她能创造奇迹的事实。)”可知，《The Familiar》这本书是基于作者自己家族背景创作的。故选B。 B When my son, Mark, was in the third grade, he saved all his pocket money for over three months to buy Christmas presents. The third Saturday in December Mark said he had made his list and had twenty dollars in his pocket. I drove him to a nearby supermarket. Mark picked up a basket and went in while I waited and watched in the car. It took Mark over 45 minutes to choose his presents. Finally he came to the checkout counter and reached into his pocket for his money. It was not there! There was a hole in his pocket, but no money. Mark stood there holding his basket, tears falling down his face. Then a surprising thing happened. A woman came up to Mark and took him in her arms. “You would help me a lot if you let me pay for you,” said the woman. “It would be the most wonderful gift you could give me. I only ask that one day you will pass it on. When you grow up, I would like you to find someone you can help. When you help others, 1 know you will feel as good about it as I do now.” Mark took the money, dried his tears and ran back to the checkout counter as fast as he could. That year we all enjoyed our gifts almost as much as Mark enjoyed giving them to us. I would like to say “thank you” to that very kind woman, and tell her that four years later, Mark went house to house collecting blankets and clothes for the homeless people in the fire. And I want to promise her that Mark will never forget to keep passing it on. 4. When did the story probably happen? A. On Christmas Day. B. Before Christmas Day, C On New Year’s Day. D. After New Year’s Day. 5. What happened to Mark in the supermarket? A. His gifts were stolen. B. He broke his basket. C. He lost his money. D. He lost his way. 6. Why did the writer want to say “thank you” to the woman? A. Because she bought Mark a nice present. B. Because she always paid money for others. C. Because she collected clothes for the homeless. D. Because she taught Mark to help people in need. 7. What’s the best title for this passage? A. A big supermarket B. A kind woman C. A happy family D. A wonderful gift 【答案】4. B 5. C 6. D 7. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文，文章主要讲的是圣诞节前作者的儿子马克去超市买礼物时发现钱丢了，一位女士及时帮助了他，而这位女士将帮助马克这件事当成了马克送给自己的一件礼物并希望马克能将这种善意传递下去。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第一段“The third Saturday in December Mark said he had made his list and had twenty dollars in his pocket.(12月的第三个星期六，马克说他已经列好了清单，口袋里有20美元。)”可知故事发生在12月的第三个周六，即圣诞节之前。故选B项。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段“Finally he came to the checkout counter and reached into his pocket for his money. It was not there! There was a hole in his pocket, but no money. Mark stood there holding his basket, tears falling down his face.(最后，他来到收银台，把手伸进口袋拿钱。它不在那儿！他的口袋有个洞，但没有钱。马克站在那里，手里拿着篮子，泪流满面。)”可知在超市里马克发现自己的钱丢了。故选C项。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章最后一段“I would like to say “thank you” to that very kind woman, and tell her that four years later, Mark went house to house collecting blankets and clothes for the homeless people in the fire. And I want to promise her that Mark will never forget to keep passing it on.(我想对这位非常善良的女士说声“谢谢”，并告诉她四年后，马克挨家挨户地为火灾中无家可归的人收集毯子和衣服。我想向她保证马克永远不会忘记把它传承下去。)”可知这位善良的女士教会了马克去帮助需要帮助的人，所以作者向她表示感谢。故选D项。 【7题详解】 主旨大意题。根据文章第三段“A woman came up to Mark and took him in her arms. “You would help me a lot if you let me pay for you,” said the woman. “It would be the most wonderful gift you could give me. I only ask that one day you will pass it on. When you grow up, I would like you to find someone you can help. When you help others, 1 know you will feel as good about it as I do now.”(一个女人走到马克跟前，把他抱在怀里。“如果你让我为你买单，你就帮了我大忙了，”女人说。“这将是你能给我的最好的礼物。我只希望有一天你能把它传递下去。当你长大了，我希望你能找到一个你能帮助的人。当你帮助别人时，我知道你会像我现在一样感到高兴。”)”以及文章其他段落的内容可知文章主要讲的是圣诞节前作者的儿子马克去超市买礼物时发现钱丢了，一位女士及时帮助了他，而这位女士将帮助马克这件事当成了马克送给自己的一件礼物并希望马克能将这种善意传递下去，由此可以推测文章主要围绕着一件美好的礼物来展开，所以D项A wonderful gift(一件美好的礼物)作为文章的标题最合适，故选D项。 C I was born in a poor community on the north side of Boston, US, raised by a single mother who didn’t finish 3rd grade, lived each day on food stamps and attended what the media called “the most dysfunctional public school district”. Not many people expected much of me, so I had to expect something of myself. On my 13th birthday, I bought a poster of Harvard to hang in my room. Being at Harvard became what I dreamt about. Even when my electricity was cut off and I woke up at 5:30 am to pitch blackness, I knew that my poster of Harvard was still hanging only two feet away from me. Reminding myself of my goal each day made it easy to say no to the same choices I saw my peers making, because those paths wouldn’t have had me closer to my goal. Even poverty could not take away my power to decide what I choose to do with my day. The poster gave me the courage to cold email about 50 Harvard students so I could ask for feedback on my application essays; it gave me the energy to study just one more hour on my SATs when my friends were asleep; and it gave me the determination to submit just one more scholarship application when 180 others had already turned me down. Every day I could feel myself getting closer and closer to my goal as my writing got better, my SAT score increased, and my scholarship checks started coming in. Finally, an email arrived from Harvard. The first word was “Congratulations!” A month later, Harvard flew me up to visit the campus where for the first time I stepped onto my dreaming land. Who you are today is the result of the decisions you made yesterday, and who you will be tomorrow will be the result of the choices you make today. Who do you want to be tomorrow? 8. What can we learn about the author from the first paragraph? A. He experienced disability. B. He grew up in a happy family. C. He accepted special education. D. He had high expectation of himself. 9. What efforts did the author make to achieve his goal? A. He learnt from his peers from time to time. B. He often wrote feedbacks on others’ essays. C. He spent more time preparing for the exams. D. He consulted his teacher when facing problems. 10. Which can best describe the author’s character? A. Courageous and friendly. B. Generous and selfless. C. Intelligent and humorous. D. Determined and hardworking. 11. Which of the following can be the main idea of the text? A. Failure is the mother of success. B. Timeless efforts can realize your dream. C. The longest journey begins with the first step. D. Your success in life lies in your hardship in the past. 【答案】8. D 9. C 10. D 11. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了作者出身贫困却怀揣进入哈佛大学的梦想，并为实现梦想所付出的努力以及最终梦想成真的故事。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第一段“Not many people expected much of me, so I had to expect something of myself. (没多少人对我抱有很大期望，所以我只能自己对自己有所期待。)”可推测，作者对自己有着很高的期待。故选D。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第三段“The poster gave me the courage to cold email about 50 Harvard students so I could ask for feedback on my application essays; it gave me the energy to study just one more hour on my SATs when my friends were asleep; and it gave me the determination to submit just one more scholarship application when 180 others had already turned me down. (那张海报给了我勇气，让我冒昧地给大约 50 名哈佛学生发电子邮件，以便向他们征求对我申请文书的反馈意见；它给了我动力，让我在朋友们都已入睡时，在学术能力评估测试（SAT）的备考上再多学一个小时；它还给了我决心，在已经被 180 个奖学金申请拒之门外的情况下，再多提交一份奖学金申请。)”可知，作者为了实现进入哈佛的目标，花费了更多的时间准备考试。故选C。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第二段“Being at Harvard became what I dreamt about. (进入哈佛大学成了我的梦想。)”以及文章第三段“The poster gave me the courage to cold email about 50 Harvard students so I could ask for feedback on my application essays; it gave me the energy to study just one more hour on my SATs when my friends were asleep; and it gave me the determination to submit just one more scholarship application when 180 others had already turned me down. (那张海报给了我勇气，让我冒昧地给大约 50 名哈佛学生发电子邮件，以便向他们征求对我申请文书的反馈意见；它给了我动力，让我在朋友们都已入睡时，在学术能力评估测试（SAT）的备考上再多学一个小时；它还给了我决心，在已经被 180 个奖学金申请拒之门外的情况下，再多提交一份奖学金申请。)”可知，作者在贫困的成长环境下，依然怀揣进入哈佛的梦想，并通过一系列努力去实现它，比如给哈佛学生发邮件征求申请文书反馈、在朋友入睡后还多花时间备考 SAT、在多次被奖学金申请拒绝后仍坚持再提交申请等行为，可以看出作者有着坚定的决心，且十分勤奋努力，不怕困难，一直朝着目标前进。故选D。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。根据文章最后一段“Who you are today is the result of the decisions you made yesterday, and who you will be tomorrow will be the result of the choices you make today. Who do you want to be tomorrow? (今天的你是你昨天所做决定的结果，而明天的你将会是你今天所做选择的结果。你希望明天的自己成为什么样的人呢？)”以及全文内容可知，文章主要讲述了作者出身贫困的环境，却怀揣进入哈佛大学的梦想，然后通过日复一日地朝着目标努力，克服诸多困难，最终实现梦想的故事，强调了只要坚持不懈地付出努力，就能实现梦想，选项B“Timeless efforts can realize your dream. (不懈的努力能够实现你的梦想。)”符合文章主旨大意。故选B。 D What images does science conjure up (使浮现) in your mind? You may well be visualizing a laboratory equations (方程式) written on a blackboard. Figures are surrounded by glassware filled with colored liquids. Maybe someone is studying the world under a microscope. But what this scene fails to show is that science isn’t about labs, equipment or highly trained professionals. It is not even a body of knowledge locked away in great minds or kept within textbooks and journals. Instead, it is about having a curious, creative, critical and evidence-based mindset, which means anyone who uses the scientific method can and should consider themselves a scientist. Indeed, many a discovery has been made by amateur scientists. Amateur scientists are helping to shape science. In January 2023, a new study confirmed the theory of amateur archaeologist Ben Bacon who concluded 20,000-year-old cave markings were a lunar calendar. He spent hours decoding (破译) the mysterious writing system, which may predate other similar record-keeping systems by at least 10,000 years. Astronomy has a long history of encouraging input from nonprofessional scientists. Brother and sister team William and Caroline Herschel are among the most well-known. Back down on the ground there is still plenty for the amateur to explore. Mary Anning is one of the most notable amateur Earth scientists. In the early 19th century, Mary Anning unearthed fossils on the beaches of Lyme Regis, Dorset. Despite her limited education, she read as much scientific literature as she could get her hands on and produced detailed technical drawings to record her finds. Unfortunately, the influential Geological Society of London did not allow female members. So Anning was forced to sell her finds to “gentlemen” geologists who passed her work off as their own. 12. Why does the author mention the images in paragraph 1 ? A. To explain what science is. B. To show people’s general opinion of science. C. To introduce how scientists experiment. D. To stress the importance of having scientific equipment. 13. What does the author think of scientific discovery? A. It relies on labs and equipment. B. It is mainly done by professionals. C. It requires an innovative mindset. D. It is irrelevant to amateur scientists. 14. How is paragraph 3 mainly developed? A. By making a comparison. B. By following time order. C. By giving an example. D. By analyzing cause and effect. 15. Why did Anning sell her finds to other geologists? A. She sold them for money. B. She considered them unimportant. C. She wanted to pursue higher education. D. She experienced inequality in the scientific field. 【答案】12. B 13. C 14. C 15. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了人类对科学普遍看法以及作者认为科学发现需要创新思维，并举例说明。 【12题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“What images does science conjure up in your mind? You may well be visualizing a laboratory equations written on a blackboard. Figures are surrounded by glassware filled with colored liquids. Maybe someone is studying the world under a microscope.(科学在你脑海中浮现出什么样的画面？你可能正在想象写在黑板上的实验室方程式。人物被装满彩色液体的玻璃器皿包围。也许有人在显微镜下研究这个世界)”可知，作者在第一段提到这些图像是为了展示人们对科学的普遍看法。故选B。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“Instead, it is about having a curious, creative, critical and evidence-based mindset, which means anyone who uses the scientific method can and should consider themselves a scientist.(相反，它是关于拥有一种好奇、创造性、批判性和基于证据的心态，这意味着任何使用科学方法的人都可以而且应该认为自己是科学家)”可知，作者认为科学发现需要创新探索思维。故选C。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“Amateur scientists are helping to shape science. In January 2023, a new study confirmed the theory of amateur archaeologist Ben Bacon who concluded 20,000-year-old cave markings were a lunar calendar. He spent hours decoding the mysterious writing system, which may predate other similar record-keeping systems by at least 10,000 years.(业余科学家正在帮助塑造科学。2023年1月，一项新的研究证实了业余考古学家本·培根的理论，他认为2万年前的洞穴标记是阴历。他花了几个小时破译这个神秘的文字系统，它可能比其他类似的记录保存系统早至少一万年)”可知，第3段通过举例展开，说明业余科学家的重要性。故选C。 【15题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“Unfortunately, the influential Geological Society of London did not allow female members. So Anning was forced to sell her finds to “gentlemen” geologists who passed her work off as their own.(不幸的是，有影响力的伦敦地质学会不允许女性成为会员。因此，安宁被迫把她的发现卖给“绅士”地质学家，他们把她的发现当作自己的)”可知，安宁把她的发现卖给其他地质学家是因为她经历了科学领域的不平等。故选D。 第二节 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。(每小题2分，满分10分) Being fit is a way of saying a person eats well, gets a lot of physical exercise, and has a healthy weight.

There are a lot of discussions these days about fit kids.(健康是指一个人吃得好，经常锻炼身体，体重健康。最近有很多关于健康孩子的讨论)”以及后文介绍了如何成为一个健康的孩子的几点准则。故B选项“如果你是一个想要健康的孩子，这里有三条规则可以遵循”符合语境，故选B。 【17题详解】 根据上文“Eat a variety of foods.

If you’re looking to get a jump ahead on the holds from your local library, here are just a few books we ‘re looking forward to. James by Percival Everett Celebrated author Percival Everett gives us Huckleberry Finn from Jim’s point of view. It’s far from a straight re-telling, though. Instead, Everett (but off his 2001 book Erasure being adapted into the film American Fiction) uses the beats of the original story to give us a send up of language and race.(Pub. March.19) The Familiar by Leigh Bardugo This standalone fantasy was inspired by the best-selling author’s own family history. It takes place during the Spanish Golden Age and follows a servant, hiding the fact that she can perform miracles. (Pub. Apr.9) Private Equity by Carrie Sun A memoir (回忆录) about the daughter of Chinese immigrants who ended up becoming an assistant to a billionaire hedge fund founder. It’s an examination of the hustle and tiring lifestyle that spreads American work culture, and the costs of extreme wealth. (Pub. Feh.13) Legacy by Uché Blackstock Uché Blackstock has had a long career in medicine as a doctor and as a professor of emergency medicine. Her account follows her growing up wanting nothing more than to be doctor, and discovering all parts of the systemic issues that lend to poorer health outcomes for Black Americans. (Pub, Jan.23) 1.

B When my son, Mark, was in the third grade, he saved all his pocket money for over three months to buy Christmas presents. The third Saturday in December Mark said he had made his list and had twenty dollars in his pocket. I drove him to a nearby supermarket. Mark picked up a basket and went in while I waited and watched in the car. It took Mark over 45 minutes to choose his presents. Finally he came to the checkout counter and reached into his pocket for his money. It was not there! There was a hole in his pocket, but no money. Mark stood there holding his basket, tears falling down his face. Then a surprising thing happened. A woman came up to Mark and took him in her arms. “You would help me a lot if you let me pay for you,” said the woman. “It would be the most wonderful gift you could give me. I only ask that one day you will pass it on. When you grow up, I would like you to find someone you can help. When you help others, 1 know you will feel as good about it as I do now.” Mark took the money, dried his tears and ran back to the checkout counter as fast as he could. That year we all enjoyed our gifts almost as much as Mark enjoyed giving them to us. I would like to say “thank you” to that very kind woman, and tell her that four years later, Mark went house to house collecting blankets and clothes for the homeless people in the fire. And I want to promise her that Mark will never forget to keep passing it on. 4. When did the story probably happen? A. On Christmas Day. B. Before Christmas Day, C. On New Year’s Day. D. After New Year’s Day. 5. What happened to Mark in the supermarket? A. His gifts were stolen. B. He broke his basket. C. He lost his money. D. He lost his way. 6. Why did the writer want to say “thank you” to the woman? A. Because she bought Mark a nice present. B. Because she always paid money for others. C. Because she collected clothes for the homeless. D. Because she taught Mark to help people in need. 7. What’s the best title for this passage? A. A big supermarket B. A kind woman C. A happy family D. A wonderful gift C I was born in a poor community on the north side of Boston, US, raised by a single mother who didn’t finish 3rd grade, lived each day on food stamps and attended what the media called “the most dysfunctional public school district”. Not many people expected much of me, so I had to expect something of myself. On my 13th birthday, I bought a poster of Harvard to hang in my room. Being at Harvard became what I dreamt about. Even when my electricity was cut off and I woke up at 5:30 am to pitch blackness, I knew that my poster of Harvard was still hanging only two feet away from me. Reminding myself of my goal each day made it easy to say no to the same choices I saw my peers making, because those paths wouldn’t have had me closer to my goal. Even poverty could not take away my power to decide what I choose to do with my day. The poster gave me the courage to cold email about 50 Harvard students so I could ask for feedback on my application essays; it gave me the energy to study just one more hour on my SATs when my friends were asleep; and it gave me the determination to submit just one more scholarship application when 180 others had already turned me down. Every day I could feel myself getting closer and closer to my goal as my writing got better, my SAT score increased, and my scholarship checks started coming in. Finally, an email arrived from Harvard. The first word was “Congratulations!” A month later, Harvard flew me up to visit the campus where for the first time I stepped onto my dreaming land. Who you are today is the result of the decisions you made yesterday, and who you will be tomorrow will be the result of the choices you make today. Who do you want to be tomorrow? 8. What can we learn about the author from the first paragraph? A. He experienced disability. B. He grew up in a happy family. C. He accepted special education. D. He had high expectation of himself. 9 What efforts did the author make to achieve his goal? A. He learnt from his peers from time to time. B. He often wrote feedbacks on others’ essays. C. He spent more time preparing for the exams. D. He consulted his teacher when facing problems. 10. Which can best describe the author’s character? A. Courageous and friendly. B. Generous and selfless. C. Intelligent and humorous. D. Determined and hardworking. 11. Which of the following can be the main idea of the text? A. Failure is the mother of success. B Timeless efforts can realize your dream. C. The longest journey begins with the first step. D. Your success in life lies in your hardship in the past. D What images does science conjure up (使浮现) in your mind? You may well be visualizing a laboratory equations (方程式) written on a blackboard. Figures are surrounded by glassware filled with colored liquids. Maybe someone is studying the world under a microscope. But what this scene fails to show is that science isn’t about labs, equipment or highly trained professionals. It is not even a body of knowledge locked away in great minds or kept within textbooks and journals. Instead, it is about having a curious, creative, critical and evidence-based mindset, which means anyone who uses the scientific method can and should consider themselves a scientist. Indeed, many a discovery has been made by amateur scientists. Amateur scientists are helping to shape science. In January 2023, a new study confirmed the theory of amateur archaeologist Ben Bacon who concluded 20,000-year-old cave markings were a lunar calendar. He spent hours decoding (破译) the mysterious writing system, which may predate other similar record-keeping systems by at least 10,000 years. Astronomy has a long history of encouraging input from nonprofessional scientists. Brother and sister team William and Caroline Herschel are among the most well-known. Back down on the ground there is still plenty for the amateur to explore. Mary Anning is one of the most notable amateur Earth scientists. In the early 19th century, Mary Anning unearthed fossils on the beaches of Lyme Regis, Dorset. Despite her limited education, she read as much scientific literature as she could get her hands on and produced detailed technical drawings to record her finds. Unfortunately, the influential Geological Society of London did not allow female members. So Anning was forced to sell her finds to “gentlemen” geologists who passed her work off as their own. 12. Why does the author mention the images in paragraph 1 ? A. To explain what science is. B. To show people’s general opinion of science. C. To introduce how scientists experiment. D. To stress the importance of having scientific equipment. 13. What does the author think of scientific discovery? A. It relies on labs and equipment. B. It is mainly done by professionals. C. It requires an innovative mindset. D. It is irrelevant to amateur scientists. 14. How is paragraph 3 mainly developed? A. By making a comparison. B. By following time order. C. By giving an example. D. By analyzing cause and effect. 15. Why did Anning sell her finds to other geologists? A She sold them for money. B. She considered them unimportant. C. She wanted to pursue higher education. D. She experienced inequality in the scientific field. 第二节 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。(每小题2分，满分10分) Being fit is a way of saying a person eats well, gets a lot of physical exercise, and has a healthy weight.
