The ancient Egyptians and Romans employed various techniques to cool down their buildings from the outside heat. Some people have even claimed that the first air conditioning unit was invented in ancient Egypt. The ancient Egyptians would hang wet plants outside their Windows, and when the air came into the house, it would be cooled by the cool water drops on the plants. The Romans understood that if they could bring cold water under their houses, then the temperature inside would fall. And if we really stretch the meaning of the phrase air conditioning, then hand fans have been used since the very beginning of the history. People realized that they could move air by waving something and it would cool them down for a while. The Chinese inventor Ding Huan went a step further in the second century and invented a fan that could go around, similar to fans we might see today, although it was powered by servants. That’s all for today, please stay tuned for more updates. 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 Cash Composition Contest In support of Financial Literacy Month (April), Michigan State University Extension and 4-H, a youth organization, are coordinating (协调) the Cash Composition Contest.

(分享在一个人的一生中需求和欲望是如何变化的。)”可知，关于需求和欲望的讨论将是参赛作品的重点。故选D。 【23题详解】 细节理解题。根据倒数第四段“The application form must be completed by a parent/guardian.

After he developed a disease that often results in damage to the spinal cord (脊髓) and nerves, Heslop’s parents pushed him to try wheelchair basketball. By high school, Heslop played wheelchair basketball on a competitive basketball team. The experience opened his eyes to the world of adaptive sports, which became his favorite. While he was never the biggest or strongest player, Heslop had a feel for the game and a desire to take it further. Faced with many challenges, he worked tirelessly to develop chair skills and conditioning that made him more explosive. “As I applied to graduate school, I knew I would play wherever I was planning to go,” Heslop said. “University of Michigan was near the top of my list academically. I also heard that they were trying to get an adaptive sports program going, and that helped me make my choice.” University of Michigan Adaptive Sports and Fitness was formed in 2018 to address the inequitable access to physical activity opportunities, competitive and recreational, for students with disabilities at University of Michigan. Since Heslop joined the program in 2020, University of Michigan’s wheelchair basketball team became part of the NWBA’s Division Ⅱ. After leading the team to an 8th-place finish at the NWBA Nationals in April 2022, Heslop participated in the US Men’s National Team Selection Camp where he fought against 30 of the nation to athletes and made the final twelve-man roster. This gave the recently graduated young man a better shot at his ultimate goal: playing for his country in the Paralympic Games. 24. What helped Heslop develop his passion for adaptive sports? A. The unexpected disease at seven. B. The email he received at a hotel. C. The University of Michigan he dreamed of. D. The experience in a wheelchair basketball team. 25. Why did Heslop choose University of Michigan? A. He accepted a large sum of scholarship. B. He could join his favorite sports program. C. He was promised a chance to play for the country. D. He was invited to set up Adaptive Sports and Fitness. 26. What is mainly talked about in the last paragraph? A. Heslop’s achievements. B. Heslop’s ultimate goal. C. Heslop’s superior leadership. D. Heslop’s bright future. 27. Which can best describe Heslop? A. Generous. B. Reliable. C. Creative. D. Determined. 【答案】24. D 25. B 26. A 27. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，主要讲述Spencer Heslop患上一种经常导致脊髓和神经损伤的疾病后打轮椅篮球，在2022年4月带领球队在NWBA全国比赛中获得第八名后，他参加了美国男子国家队选拔营，在那里他与30名全国运动员进行了竞争，并进入了最后的12人名单。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段的“By high school, Heslop played wheelchair basketball on a competitive basketball team. The experience opened his eyes to the world of adaptive sports, which became his favorite.(高中时，Heslop在一个竞技篮球队打轮椅篮球。这次经历让他看到了适应性运动的世界，这成为了他的最爱。)”可知，让Heslop对适应性运动产生了热情的是在轮椅篮球队的经历。故选D。 【25题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段的“University of Michigan was near the top of my list academically. I also heard that they were trying to get an adaptive sports program going, and that helped me make my choice.(密歇根大学在我的学术名单上名列前茅。我还听说他们正在努力开展适应性体育项目，这帮助我做出了选择。)”可知，Heslop选择密歇根大学是因为他可以参加他最喜欢的体育项目。故选B。 【26题详解】 主旨大意题。根据最后一段的“After leading the team to an 8th-place finish at the NWBA Nationals in April 2022, Heslop participated in the US Men’s National Team Selection Camp where he fought against 30 of the nation to athletes and made the final twelve-man roster.(在2022年4月带领球队在NWBA全国比赛中获得第八名后，Heslop参加了美国男子国家队选拔营，在那里他与30名全国运动员进行了竞争，并进入了最后的12人名单。)”可知，最后一段主要讨论了Heslop所取得的成就。故选A。 【27题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段的“Faced with many challenges, he worked tirelessly to develop chair skills and conditioning that made him more explosive.(面对许多挑战，他孜孜不倦地学习椅子技巧和调节，使他更具爆发力。)”可知，Heslop是有决心的，故选D。 C A few years ago, at a private event, Google founder Larry Page told his audience that the way he evaluates prospective companies is by a single standard — asking them if they’re working on something that could “change the world.” It’s both an inspired way to look at things and also rather delusional, because that’s not how Google started. Trying to “change the world” was not the mission with which most great or successful things started. It’s only our ego (自负), afterwards, that creates these stories. And it blinds us to what actually creates success. Football coach Bill Walsh took the San Francisco 49ers from being the worst team in football to a Super Bowl victory. The year before he arrived, the organization was broken and fully wrapped up in a culture of losing. When people asked Walsh whether he had a timetable for winning the Super Bowl, the answer was always no. Instead, Walsh focused on seemingly minor details: Everyone had to be totally engaged. Sportsmanship was essential. The locker room must be neat and clean. Practices were scheduled to the minute. In his eyes, if the players could take care of the details, “the score takes care of itself.” In his third season, they went to the Super Bowl and won. We want so desperately to believe that those who have great empires set out to build one. Why? So we can dream about creating our own. So we can take full credit for the good that happens. Narrative is when you look back at an unlikely path to your success and say: I knew it all along. But the founding of a company, making money in the market, and building a career are messy things. Reducing the experience to a narrative afterwards creates a clarity that wasn’t and never will be there. We must resist the desire to pretend that everything unfolded exactly as we’d planned. There was no grand (宏大的) narrative. We should remain focused on the doing — and on doing things well. We must postpone the credit and continue working on what got us here, because that's the only thing that will keep us here. 28. What does the underlined word “delusional” in paragraph 2 mean? A. Ambitious. B. Misguided. C. Professional. D. Impressive. 29. How did Bill Walsh lead the San Francisco 49ers to victory? A. By focusing on details. B. By setting a strict timetable. C. By developing a culture of winning. D. By creating a relaxed environment. 30. Why does the author discount grand narratives? A. They simplify the planning process. B. They change clarity into a mess. C. They depart from reality. D. They boost people’s egos. 31. What is a suitable title for the text? A. Success that lasts B. The true path to success C. What does success mean to you? D. Why is success so difficult to define? 【答案】28. B 29. A 30. C 31. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇议论文。主要介绍的是成功并非源于宏大的目标或计划，而是通过专注于细节和持续努力来实现的真实路径。 【28题详解】 词句猜测题。根据首段“A few years ago, at a private event, Google founder Larry Page told his audience that the way he evaluates prospective companies is by a single standard — asking them if they’re working on something that could “change the world.”(几年前，在一场私人活动中，谷歌创始人拉里·佩奇告诉在场观众，他评估潜在公司的标准只有一个——询问他们是否正在从事某种能够“改变世界”的事情)”可知，Larry Page在私人活动中提到，他用“改变世界”作为评估公司的标准，结合划线单词后的“because that’s not how Google started.(因为谷歌并不是这样起步的)”可知，谷歌的创立并非始于这种宏伟的目标。由此可知，这一评估标准既是一种富有启发性的视角，也显得相当不切实际。由此可知，划线单词的意思与“不切合实际”意义相近。故选B项。 【29题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中的“Instead, Walsh focused on seemingly minor details: Everyone had to be totally engaged. Sportsmanship was essential. The locker room must be neat and clean. Practices were scheduled to the minute. In his eyes, if the players could take care of the details, “the score takes care of itself.” In his third season, they went to the Super Bowl and won.(相反，Walsh专注于看似微不足道的细节：每个人都必须全身心投入。体育精神至关重要。更衣室必须保持整洁干净。训练时间精确到每分钟。在他看来，如果球员们能够照顾好这些细节，“比分自然会水到渠成。” 在他的第三个赛季，球队打入了超级碗并赢得了冠军)”可知，Walsh只是从细节入手，保持更衣室整洁、严格的训练时间以及强调体育精神等，最终带领球队获得超级碗的冠军。由此可知，Bill Walsh是通过关注细节带领旧金山49人球队取得胜利的。故选A项。 【30题详解】 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中的“But the founding of a company, making money in the market, and building a career are messy things. Reducing the experience to a narrative afterwards creates a clarity that wasn’t and never will be there. We must resist the desire to pretend that everything unfolded exactly as we’d planned. There was no grand (宏大的) narrative.(然而，创立一家公司、在市场上赚钱以及打造职业生涯都是复杂而混乱的事情。事后将这些经历简化为一个故事，会创造出一种当时并不存在、也永远不会存在的清晰感。我们必须抵制那种假装一切完全按照我们计划发展的欲望。并没有什么宏大的叙事)”可知，人们通过“宏大叙事”将复杂的成功过程简化为一种虚假的清晰感，并强调“不存在宏大叙事”，由此可知，这种叙事是事后编造的，与实际的混乱、不可预测的奋斗过程完全脱节。所以作者对宏大叙事持怀疑态度的原因是他认为这种叙事是脱离现实的。故选C项。 【31题详解】 主旨大意题。根据尾段“We should remain focused on the doing — and on doing things well. We must postpone the credit and continue working on what got us here, because that's the only thing that will keep us here.(我们应该继续专注于行动——并且把事情做好。我们必须推迟享受赞誉，继续努力做好让我们达到今天成就的事情，因为这才是让我们能够保持现状的唯一途径)”以及上文中介绍的Google和Bill Walsh的成功案例可知，本文主要强调的是成功源于专注细节、持续行动，而不是预设的宏大目标或事后叙事，所以，题目“成功的真正路径”与本文内容吻合，且概括了本文的主题，适合作为标题。故选B项。 D The UN this week launched a report urging companies to stop issuing false net-zero targets that amount to greenwashing. Greenwashing is a term used to describe situations where companies mislead consumers by claiming to be eco-friendly or sustainable as a marketing plan rather than as a core principle of their business model. Often, these industries spend more money making themselves appear sustainable than they do taking actual sustainable measures into their company. Cities, financial institutions, and scores of companies have announced plans to reduce their emissions to zero, which, in principle, should help the fight against climate change. “The problem is that the criteria for these net-zero commitments have varying levels of precision and loopholes (漏洞),” said UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres during the launch of the report. Many net-zero plans contain far-away or unclear targets and often call for the use of unproved technologies like carbon capture and tree planting, which effectively allow companies to continue polluting the atmosphere. Studies show that most of these net-zero plans will do little to stop temperatures from rising. For example, many oil majors have announced plans to reduce emissions from their operations to zero by 2050 that do not take into account the carbon emitted by the fossil fuels they sell, which would allow them to increase production. Far from decreasing, fossil fuel production is going strong. To close these net-zero loopholes, the UN this week released a report that includes 10 recommendations to ensure that companies, cities, regions, and other non-state actors issue credible and accountable net zero commitments. “Their plans cannot rely on cheap carbon credits instead of immediately cutting their own emissions,” Guterres said. Financial institutions need to cut down emissions from all their investments and businesses need to bring down the carbon footprint of their supply chain, the report said. The report’s lead author, Catherine McKenna, urged companies to release new net-zero targets within a year. The updated targets must contain concrete actionable details. 32. What does “greenwashing” refer to? A. A green technology. B. A misleading statement. C. A business model. D. A spending target. 33. Why does the author mention the oil majors? A. To prove oil majors are really responsible. B. To set some good examples for other companies. C. To show some net- zero commitments make no sense. D. To indicate the benefit of net zero plans to climate change. 34. How does Guterres feel about the issued net-zero plans? A. Dissatisfied. B. Guilty. C. Shocked. D. Confused. 35. What is advised to do to fix net-zero loopholes? A. Plant more trees. B. Share more supply chains. C. Depend on cheap carbon credits. D. Make concrete actionable targets. 【答案】32. B 33. C 34. A 35. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了联合国本周发布了一份报告，敦促企业停止发布相当于“洗绿”的虚假净零目标。 【32题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第二段中“Greenwashing is a term used to describe situations where companies mislead consumers by claiming to be eco-friendly or sustainable as a marketing plan rather than as a core principle of their business model.(“绿色清洗”是一个术语，用来描述这样一种情况：企业声称自己是环保型或可持续型的营销计划，而不是其商业模式的核心原则，从而误导消费者)”可推知，“洗绿”指的是一种误导性的说法。故选B。 【33题详解】 推理判断题。根据第五段第一句话“Many net-zero plans contain far-away or unclear targets and often call for the use of unproved technologies like carbon capture and tree planting, which effectively allow companies to continue polluting the atmosphere(许多净零排放计划包含遥远或不明确的目标，往往要求使用未经证实的技术，如碳捕获和植树，这实际上允许企业继续污染大气)”可知，一些净零承诺包含遥远或不明确的目标，往往要求使用未经证实的技术，这会允许企业继续污染大气。由此推知，一些净零承诺是没有意义的。接着文章列举石油巨头的例子“For example, many oil majors have announced plans to reduce emissions from their operations to zero by 2050 that do not take into account the carbon emitted by the fossil fuels they sell, which would allow them to increase production. Far from decreasing, fossil fuel production is going strong.(例如，许多石油巨头宣布了到2050年将其业务排放量减至零的计划，这些计划没有考虑到它们销售的化石燃料所排放的碳，这将使它们能够增加产量。化石燃料产量非但没有下降，反而增长强劲)”来说明一些净零承诺是没有意义的。故选C。 【34题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段中““The problem is that the criteria for these net-zero commitments have varying levels of precision and loopholes (漏洞),” said UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres during the launch of the report.(“问题在于，这些净零排放承诺的标准有不同程度的精确性和漏洞，”联合国秘书长Antonio Guterres在报告发布时说)”可推知，Guterres对净零计划是不满意的。故选A。 【35题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段中“The report’s lead author, Catherine McKenna, urged companies to release new net-zero targets within a year. The updated targets must contain concrete actionable details.(该报告的主要作者Catherine McKenna敦促企业在一年内公布新的净零排放目标。更新后的目标必须包含具体的可操作细节)”可知，建议制定具体可行的目标来弥补净零漏洞，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。 There are hundreds of genres (流派) of music, so while some might like one kind, others might like something completely different. Why do people like different kinds of music? ____36____ At the same time, music can also help us feel like part of a group or a culture, especially one that shares an interest in a certain kind of music. Music can also be nostalgic, that is, it creates a kind of longing for the past. Musicians leave behind a footprint with their music.____37____ Even long after the musicians are gone, people still find something in the musicians’ recordings that they can enjoy. We may also find that the music we like is strongly tied to our memory. Maybe there was a song that someone sang to us when we were little that brings up good memories. ____38____ When we listen to music that we like, a chemical called dopamine is sometimes released in the brain, which can make us feel good. ____39____ There are some algorithms (算法) today that can help pick up on the kind of music we like. When we are streaming music, some programs will let us like or dislike songs. People’s taste in music can remain the same in their whole life or it can change many times. But the truth is, we don’t know all the exact answers to why people like different kinds of music — or sports, or food, or colors. ____40____ We are all different people who like different things. A. It’s music to our ears. B. Music can be a part of our identity. C. It becomes a mirror that we are holding up. D. They leave a permanent mark in people’s lives. E. Therefore, we might want to listen to a song on repeat. F. Other times, we might find music can bring up sad memories. G. There are lots of different factors that can influence our preferences. 【答案】36. B 37. D 38. F 39. E 40. G 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了音乐对人们的影响。 【36题详解】 根据后文“At the same time, music can also help us feel like part of a group or a culture, especially one that shares an interest in a certain kind of music.(与此同时，音乐也可以帮助我们感觉自己是一个团体或文化的一部分，尤其是对某种音乐有共同兴趣的人)”可知，后文提到了音乐对自身其他方面的影响，故本句是在说明音乐可以成为身体的一部分，故B选项“音乐可以成为我们身份的一部分”符合语境，故选B。 【37题详解】 根据上文“Musicians leave behind a footprint with their music.(音乐家在音乐中留下了足迹)”可知，上文提到了音乐家，D选项They指代上文Musicians。故D选项“他们在人们的生活中留下了永久的印记”符合语境，故选D。 【38题详解】 根据上文“We may also find that the music we like is strongly tied to our memory. Maybe there was a song that someone sang to us when we were little that brings up good memories.(我们可能还会发现，我们喜欢的音乐与我们的记忆密切相关。也许在我们小的时候，有人给我们唱过一首歌，勾起了我们美好的回忆)”可知，上文提到音乐可以勾起美好回忆，同样也能唤起悲伤的回忆。故F选项“其他时候，我们可能会发现音乐能唤起悲伤的回忆”符合语境，故选F。 【39题详解】 根据上文“When we listen to music that we like, a chemical called dopamine is sometimes released in the brain, which can make us feel good.(当我们听自己喜欢的音乐时，大脑中有时会释放一种叫做多巴胺的化学物质，它能让我们感觉良好)”可知，本句与上文构成因果关系，指出喜欢的音乐让我们感觉良好，所以喜欢重复听。故E选项“因此，我们可能想要重复听一首歌”符合语境，故选E。 【40题详解】 根据上文“But the truth is, we don’t know all the exact answers to why people like different kinds of music — or sports, or food, or colors.(但事实是，我们并不知道人们为什么喜欢不同种类的音乐、运动、食物或颜色的确切答案)”可知，本句承接上文说明影响偏好的因素很多，无法确定。故G选项“有很多不同的因素可以影响我们的偏好”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。并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 Baby Miloszek was born with a heart defect.

Typically 62. deeper 63. that 64. Humans 65. was named 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章讲述了中国针灸的发源、作用原理，因其独特的贡献而被联合国教科文组织列为非物质文化遗产。 【56题详解】 考查冠词。句意：中国针灸，也被称为“神针”艺术，是中国传统医学的一个分支。branch“分支”为可数名词，结合上文“Chinese acupuncture”可知，这里指单数含义，所以空处用不定冠词a，故填a。 【57题详解】 考查非谓语。句意：它的历史可以追溯到石器时代。空处在句中为后置定语，短语：date back to“起源于，追溯到”，无被动，所以此处用现在分词形式。故填dating。 【58题详解】 考查名词。句意：它已被用于治疗各种各样的健康问题，如剧烈疼痛、运动损伤、抑郁等。形容词修饰名词，结合空前“a wide”可知，此处应用单数名词variety，故填variety。 【59题详解】 考查介词。句意：世界卫生组织推荐它作为100多种医学问题的良好治疗方法。短语：recommend...as...“推荐……作为……”，as为介词，故填as。 【60题详解】 考查形容词。句意：它是如何作用的呢? 特殊的细针被插入你身体的目标部位。形容词修饰名词，空后points为名词，所以空处用形容词。动词target和名词points为动宾关系，所以此处用形容词targeted，意为“定向的”，故填targeted。 61题详解】 考查副词。句意：通常，穴位的数量在1到12之间，这取决于你的身体状况。空处为陈述性状语，处于句首，所以用副词Typically，故填Typically。 【62题详解】 考查比较级。句意：针头被推入皮肤下方，但在某些情况下，为了到达肌肉组织，它们会被推得更深一些。根据句中“The needles are pushed just under the skin”及“in order to reach the muscle tissue”可知，这里要使用比较级，表示“为了到达肌肉组织，针要刺的更深”，故填deeper。 【63题详解】 考查表语从句。句意：它背后的信念是疾病和疼痛的发生是因为体内的能量(或气)被阻塞。分析句子可知。空处及之后的内容在句中为表语从句，空后的句子结构完整，成分齐全，所以此处使用从属连词that来连接，故填that。 【64题详解】 考查名词复数。句意：当这种能量和谐平衡时，人类是最快乐和健康的。治疗后，你会感到无比的放松和平静。空处在句中为主语，结合空后的are可知，此处用名词复数，因处于句首，所以首字母大写。故填Humans。 【65题详解】 考查一般过去时的被动语态。句意：由于其独特的贡献，中国针灸在2010年被联合国教科文组织列为非物质文化遗产，充分表明了其在世界范围内的认可。空处在句中为谓语，结合句中“in 2010”可知，时态为一般过去时；主语“Chinese acupuncture”为单数含义，与动词name为动宾关系，所以空处填was named，故填was named。 第四部分　写作(共两节，满分40分) 第一节(满分15分) 66. 假定你是李华，市科技馆本月在举行机器人展览。下周末学校将组织全校师生去参观。这是一个了解机器人和人工智能的绝佳机会。请你代表学生会写一则通知。内容包括： 1. 分周六周日两批出发，本周五前在班主任处报名确认； 2. 参观活动安排； 3. 参观注意事项。 注意： 1.词数80左右。 _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 Dear teachers and students A robot exhibition is being held in the city science museum this month.

He had already decided that two-year-old Charlotte was his No. 1 girl. The dog had barely left her side since arriving at his new home. Khan was next to Charlotte when Catherine took her into the garden for some fresh air. “I was just in the house doing boring mother things, and Charlotte wanted to go outside and run around, she says. “We were just walking around the garden, looking at flowers. Khan was with her.” As Catherine watched, Khan seemed to double in size. “He kept trying to push her. I was right next to Charlotte no more than a metre away — and I thought, ‘He’s going to hurt her’, ”she says. Time seemed to slow down as Catherine rushed desperately (拼命地) to save her daughter. But Khan got to Charlotte first. He grabbed (抓住) her by the back of her clothes and threw her over his shoulder into the garden. “I turned and looked and she was just sitting there in a pile of grass.” Still not certain whether Khan’s strange behaviour was some sort of attack on her child, Catherine raced to pick up Charlotte, who was completely unharmed, and take her inside to safety. As Catherine turned to flee into the house, she saw a big brown snake bite Khan right in the chest. 注意： 1.续写词数应为150左右； 2.请按如下格式作答。 Khan screamed in pain and in an instant, it all made sense. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Khan needed immediate medical help, so Catherine called a vet. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】One possible version: Khan screamed in pain and in an instant, it all made sense. Catherine suddenly understood that Khan wasn’t trying to harm Charlotte but was protecting her from danger. The big brown snake had been hidden in the grass, ready to strike. Khan’s effort to push Charlotte away was actually his brave attempt to save her. Feeling sorry for doubting Khan, Catherine hugged Charlotte tightly, thankful that her daughter was safe. Khan, despite being hurt by the snake bite, lay quietly nearby, still watching over Charlotte with a gentle look. Khan needed immediate medical help, so Catherine called a vet. She quickly explained what had happened and how Khan was bitten while saving Charlotte. While waiting for the vet, Catherine tried her best to make Khan feel comfortable, putting a cold towel on his wound to reduce the pain. The little girl stayed close to her mom, looking worriedly at Khan. “He will be fine,” Catherine softly told Charlotte, though she was also scared. Soon, the vet arrived and gave Khan some medicine to fight the poison. Thanks to the quick action, Khan slowly got better. This experience showed everyone that Khan was not only a pet but also a true hero who would do anything to protect his family. 【解析】 【导语】本文以一只名叫Khan的狗为线索展开，讲述了它加入新家庭后与两岁小女孩Charlotte之间建立深厚情谊的故事。在一个平凡的周一，当母亲Catherine带Charlotte在花园玩耍时，Khan突然表现出异常行为，将Charlotte猛地甩到一边。正当家人疑惑不解时，一条大蛇出现并咬向Khan的胸口。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“Khan痛苦地尖叫了一声，瞬间一切都有了答案。”可知，第一段可描写事实真相是什么以及Catherine对此事的感悟。 ②由第二段首句内容“Khan需要紧急医疗救助，于是Catherine立刻联系了兽医。”可知，第二段可描写Catherine将Khan带到兽医站后如何做出紧急处理的以及Khan最后得到及时的救治并恢复健康。 2.续写线索：Khan被蟒蛇攻击——真相大白——Catherine感到愧疚——将Khan送至兽医站——紧急处理伤口——得到救治并康复——感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①攻击：strike/attack ②拥抱：hugged/give sb. a hug/embrace ③关注：watching over/ keep an eye on 情绪类 ①感激：thankful/grateful ②害怕：scared/frightened/ terrified/panicked 【点睛】[高分句型1] Feeling sorry for doubting Khan, Catherine hugged Charlotte tightly, thankful that her daughter was safe.（运用了现在分词短语作状语） [高分句型2] This experience showed everyone that Khan was not only a pet but also a true hero who would do anything to protect his family.（运用了that引导的宾语从句及who引导的定语从句） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$听力考试正式开始。请看听力部分第一节。第一节听下面5段对话，每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项，并标在试卷的相应位置。听完每段对话后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对话仅读一遍。例如，现在你有5秒钟的时间看试卷上的例题。你将听到以下内容。excuse me, can you tell me how much the shirt is?

The asian egyptians and romans employed various techniques to cool down their buildings from the outside heat. Some people have even claimed that the first air conditioning unit was invented in asian egypt. The asian egyptians would hand wet places outside their windows, and when they came into the house, IT would be cooled by the cool water drops on the plants. The romans understood that if they could bring cold water under their houses, then the temperature inside would fall. And if we really stretch the meaning of the phrase air conditioning, then hand fans have been used since the very beginning of the history. People realized that they could move air by waving something, and IT would cool them down for a while. The chinese inventor, dwan, went to step further in the second century and invented a fan that could go around similar to fans we might see today. Although IT was powered by servants, that's for today. Please stay tuned for more updates. The desire to stay cool is, of course, nothing new.

B At a hotel, surrounded by teammates, he got the email. “Dear Spencer Heslop.” it read, “you have been invited to participate in the Selection Camp for the US Men’s National Team for 2022.” The recent graduate from University of Michigan School of Public Health, dreamed of the opportunity to play for the United States since he was seven years old. After he developed a disease that often results in damage to the spinal cord (脊髓) and nerves, Heslop’s parents pushed him to try wheelchair basketball. By high school, Heslop played wheelchair basketball on a competitive basketball team. The experience opened his eyes to the world of adaptive sports, which became his favorite. While he was never the biggest or strongest player, Heslop had a feel for the game and a desire to take it further. Faced with many challenges, he worked tirelessly to develop chair skills and conditioning that made him more explosive. “As I applied to graduate school, I knew I would play wherever I was planning to go,” Heslop said. “University of Michigan was near the top of my list academically. I also heard that they were trying to get an adaptive sports program going, and that helped me make my choice.” University of Michigan Adaptive Sports and Fitness was formed in 2018 to address the inequitable access to physical activity opportunities, competitive and recreational, for students with disabilities at University of Michigan. Since Heslop joined the program in 2020, University of Michigan’s wheelchair basketball team became part of the NWBA’s Division Ⅱ. After leading the team to an 8th-place finish at the NWBA Nationals in April 2022, Heslop participated in the US Men’s National Team Selection Camp where he fought against 30 of the nation to athletes and made the final twelve-man roster. This gave the recently graduated young man a better shot at his ultimate goal: playing for his country in the Paralympic Games. 24. What helped Heslop develop his passion for adaptive sports? A. The unexpected disease at seven. B. The email he received at a hotel. C. The University of Michigan he dreamed of. D. The experience in a wheelchair basketball team. 25. Why did Heslop choose University of Michigan? A. He accepted a large sum of scholarship. B. He could join his favorite sports program. C. He was promised a chance to play for the country. D. He was invited to set up Adaptive Sports and Fitness. 26. What is mainly talked about in the last paragraph? A. Heslop’s achievements. B. Heslop’s ultimate goal. C. Heslop’s superior leadership. D. Heslop’s bright future. 27. Which can best describe Heslop? A. Generous. B. Reliable. C. Creative. D. Determined. C A few years ago, at a private event, Google founder Larry Page told his audience that the way he evaluates prospective companies is by a single standard — asking them if they’re working on something that could “change the world.” It’s both an inspired way to look at things and also rather delusional, because that’s not how Google started. Trying to “change the world” was not the mission with which most great or successful things started. It’s only our ego (自负), afterwards, that creates these stories. And it blinds us to what actually creates success. Football coach Bill Walsh took the San Francisco 49ers from being the worst team in football to a Super Bowl victory. The year before he arrived, the organization was broken and fully wrapped up in a culture of losing. When people asked Walsh whether he had a timetable for winning the Super Bowl, the answer was always no. Instead, Walsh focused on seemingly minor details: Everyone had to be totally engaged. Sportsmanship was essential. The locker room must be neat and clean. Practices were scheduled to the minute. In his eyes, if the players could take care of the details, “the score takes care of itself.” In his third season, they went to the Super Bowl and won. We want so desperately to believe that those who have great empires set out to build one. Why? So we can dream about creating our own. So we can take full credit for the good that happens. Narrative is when you look back at an unlikely path to your success and say: I knew it all along. But the founding of a company, making money in the market, and building a career are messy things. Reducing the experience to a narrative afterwards creates a clarity that wasn’t and never will be there. We must resist the desire to pretend that everything unfolded exactly as we’d planned. There was no grand (宏大的) narrative. We should remain focused on the doing — and on doing things well. We must postpone the credit and continue working on what got us here, because that's the only thing that will keep us here. 28. What does the underlined word “delusional” in paragraph 2 mean? A. Ambitious. B. Misguided. C. Professional. D. Impressive. 29. How did Bill Walsh lead the San Francisco 49ers to victory? A. By focusing on details. B. By setting a strict timetable. C. By developing a culture of winning. D. By creating a relaxed environment. 30. Why does the author discount grand narratives? A. They simplify the planning process. B. They change clarity into a mess. C. They depart from reality. D. They boost people’s egos. 31. What is a suitable title for the text? A. Success that lasts B. The true path to success C. What does success mean to you? D. Why is success so difficult to define? D The UN this week launched a report urging companies to stop issuing false net-zero targets that amount to greenwashing. Greenwashing is a term used to describe situations where companies mislead consumers by claiming to be eco-friendly or sustainable as a marketing plan rather than as a core principle of their business model. Often, these industries spend more money making themselves appear sustainable than they do taking actual sustainable measures into their company. Cities, financial institutions, and scores of companies have announced plans to reduce their emissions to zero, which, in principle, should help the fight against climate change. “The problem is that the criteria for these net-zero commitments have varying levels of precision and loopholes (漏洞),” said UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres during the launch of the report. Many net-zero plans contain far-away or unclear targets and often call for the use of unproved technologies like carbon capture and tree planting, which effectively allow companies to continue polluting the atmosphere. Studies show that most of these net-zero plans will do little to stop temperatures from rising. For example, many oil majors have announced plans to reduce emissions from their operations to zero by 2050 that do not take into account the carbon emitted by the fossil fuels they sell, which would allow them to increase production. Far from decreasing, fossil fuel production is going strong. To close these net-zero loopholes, the UN this week released a report that includes 10 recommendations to ensure that companies, cities, regions, and other non-state actors issue credible and accountable net zero commitments. “Their plans cannot rely on cheap carbon credits instead of immediately cutting their own emissions,” Guterres said. Financial institutions need to cut down emissions from all their investments and businesses need to bring down the carbon footprint of their supply chain, the report said. The report’s lead author, Catherine McKenna, urged companies to release new net-zero targets within a year. The updated targets must contain concrete actionable details. 32. What does “greenwashing” refer to? A. A green technology. B. A misleading statement. C A business model. D. A spending target. 33. Why does the author mention the oil majors? A. To prove oil majors are really responsible. B. To set some good examples for other companies. C. To show some net- zero commitments make no sense. D. To indicate the benefit of net zero plans to climate change. 34. How does Guterres feel about the issued net-zero plans? A. Dissatisfied. B. Guilty. C. Shocked. D. Confused. 35. What is advised to do to fix net-zero loopholes? A. Plant more trees. B. Share more supply chains. C. Depend on cheap carbon credits. D. Make concrete actionable targets. 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。 There are hundreds of genres (流派) of music so while some might like one kind, others might like something completely different.

He had already decided that two-year-old Charlotte was his No. 1 girl. The dog had barely left her side since arriving at his new home. Khan was next to Charlotte when Catherine took her into the garden for some fresh air. “I was just in the house doing boring mother things, and Charlotte wanted to go outside and run around, she says. “We were just walking around the garden, looking at flowers. Khan was with her.” As Catherine watched, Khan seemed to double in size. “He kept trying to push her. I was right next to Charlotte no more than a metre away — and I thought, ‘He’s going to hurt her’, ”she says. Time seemed to slow down as Catherine rushed desperately (拼命地) to save her daughter. But Khan got to Charlotte first. He grabbed (抓住) her by the back of her clothes and threw her over his shoulder into the garden. “I turned and looked and she was just sitting there in a pile of grass.” Still not certain whether Khan’s strange behaviour was some sort of attack on her child, Catherine raced to pick up Charlotte, who was completely unharmed, and take her inside to safety. As Catherine turned to flee into the house, she saw a big brown snake bite Khan right in the chest. 注意： 1.续写词数应为150左右； 2.请按如下格式作答。 Khan screamed in pain and in an instant, it all made sense. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Khan needed immediate medical help, so Catherine called a vet. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
