B 29-year-old Dim Nang Lao is a mother of a six-year-old boy in a mountainous and remote region in northeastern Cambodia. Like many other parents in her village who marry and have children at a young age, she used to have little knowledge about how she should look after her child to ensure he can grow healthy and strong and reach his full potential. But everything changed when she received Nurturing Care Parenting training from village volunteers. Nurturing Care Parenting aims to help every child get the best possible start in life, including through healthcare, early education and play. It also helps parents avoid violence or punishment to discipline their children. “I learned a lot from Nurturing Care Parenting,” Dim Nang Lao says. “I learned how to care for my child’s health, nutrition and education. I learned how to talk to him when he is wrong and comfort him when he is sad. I learned that a child is a white paper. If I hit him, he will learn those actions from me.” Dim Nang Lao is one of many who have benefited from the training. According to a local official named Ang Chenda the training has reached five villages and has improved the lives of many families. She says she welcomes the training as many parents in the area did not fully understand what they needed to do to fully support their children’s needs and development and often spent most of their time earning an income through farm work. “After the training, their understanding of raising young children is far different,” Ang Chenda says. “They are more aware of the importance of caring for their children. They take their children to the health center for check-ups, issue birth certificates for their children and send their children to school. They also reduce violence and use positive discipline instead.” Dim Nang Lao says she is grateful for the opportunity to learn about positive parenting and apply it in her daily life. “I hope that more parents in our country can receive this training and benefit from it as I do,” she adds. 41. What can we learn about many parents in Dim Nang Lao’s village? A. They cared little about their kids’ physical health. B. They got married and had children at an old age. C They couldn’t make a living through farm work. D. They didn’t know how to care for their kids well. 42. What is the main goal of the Nurturing Care Parenting training? A. To increase parents’ income through farm work. B. To help children achieve a healthy and promising start in life. C. To encourage children to focus on early education independently. D. To teach parents stricter methods of disciplining their children. 43. What does Dim Nang Lao focus on in paragraph 3? A. What she learned from her son. B. Her son’s change over the time. C. What she gained from the training. D. The goal of the parenting program. 44. Why is Ang Chenda mentioned in the text? A. To speak highly of Nurturing Care Parenting. B. To introduce a harmonious parent-child relationship. C. To show the popularity of the training outside villages. D. To highlight the positive influence of parenting on kids. 45. What does Dim Nang Lao expect of Nurturing Care Parenting? A. It will criticize traditional parenting. B. It will be received extensively. C. It will offer jobs to more parents. D. It will be well obtained worldwild. C An AI from Google DeepMind has achieved a silver medal score at this year’s International Mathematical Olympiad (IMO), the first time any AI has made it to the podium (领奖台). The IMO is considered the world’s most famous competition for young mathematicians. In January, Google DeepMind demonstrated AlphaGeometry, an AI system that could answer some IMO geometry questions as well as humans. However, this was not from a live competition, and it couldn’t answer questions from other mathematical disciplines. Google DeepMind has now released a new AI, called AlphaProof, which can solve a wider range of mathematical problems. It is an improved version of AlphaGeometry that can solve more geometry questions. When the team tested both systems together on this year’s IMO questions they answered four out of six questions correctly, giving them a score of 28 out of a possible 42 points. This was enough to win a silver medal and just one point under this year’s gold medal threshold (门槛). At the contest in Bath, UK, 58 competitors won a gold medal and 123 won a silver medal. “We are all very much aware that AI will eventually be better than humans at solving most mathematical problems, but the rate at which AI is improving is breathtaking,” says Gregor Dolinar, the IMO president. “Missing the gold medal at IMO 2024 by just one point a few days ago is truly impressive.” While AlphaProof’s performance is impressive, it works slowly, taking up to three days to find some solutions instead of the 4. 5 hours per three questions that competitors are allowed. It also failed to answer both questions on combinatorics, which is the study of counting and arranging numbers. “We are still working to understand why this is, which will hopefully lead us to improve the system,” says Alex Davies at Google DeepMind. 46. What do we know about AlphaProof in paragraph 3? A. Its all functions. B. Its potential clients. C. Its advantages over AlphaGeometry. D. Its abilities to analyse problems. 47. What can be learned about this year’s International Mathematical Olympiad? A. It took place in Bath, UK. B. There were 10 questions in the contest. C. 181 competitors took part in the contest. D. This year’s gold medal threshold was 30 points. 48. What is one of the limitations of AlphaProof? A. It can only solve geometry-related problems. B. It is much slower than human competitors in answering questions. C. It has difficulty in understanding the basic concepts of mathematics. D. It requires a large amount of computing resources to function 49. What may be Alex Davies’ attitude to the development of AlphaProof? A. Neutral. B. Uncaring. C. Disapproving. D. Positive. 50. What’s the best title of the text? A. DeepMind AI Gets Silver Medal at IMO 2024 B. DeepMind AI Is Developed to Take Part in IMO 2024 C. AI Manages to Solve Difficult Mathematical Problems Well D. AI Will Be Better than Humans at Solving Mathematical Problems D From now on, never spend your precious time thinking of reasons for your failures and shortcomings. Instead, realize that the seeds of success were planted within you when you were born. Only you have the power to make those seeds grow. The seeds, and the power to grow them, are contained in the most awesome machine ever created: the human mind. Success is a choice and not a chance. You were born a winner. You were born rich. You can be a success if only you make the right choice. You cannot be successful without first developing your self-esteem. Your level of self-esteem is always based on the degree of control that you are able to exercise over yourself, and thus over your life. People with low self-esteem are people who do not believe that they have any power, or responsibility for their lives. They are the perennial (长期的) victims and martyrs. They are leaves tossed (摇摆) by the winds of chance blown about with any sudden change in the weather. You can exercise control over your life only to the degree that you believe that you are responsible for everything that happens in your life. Failures think that everything happens by accident and chance. Successful people realize that they are responsible. Everything happens as a result of something. If we can identify the cause we can control the effect. We are responsible for what we choose to think and believe. One generally rises to the level that one expects. We are responsible for setting our expectations. Our success is dependent upon our level of confidence. If you associate with positive-thinking people, you are definitely going to achieve success. On the contrary, the opposite happens. We are responsible for finding, planting, and nurturing the seeds that contain future victory, born from setbacks. In short, in all areas of your life, whether they are financial, physical, emotional, or spiritual, you are responsible. Once you recognize this, accept it, and firmly believe it, you are on the road to success. 51. Why are people with low self-esteem compared to leaves? A. Because they are ready to change their minds. B. Because they are easily affected by windy weather. C. Because they don’t have the power to face their fate. D. Because they can’t exercise control over themselves. 52. What would losers think? A. Success is the result of hard work. B. Working hard will lead to success. C. Their failure is only because of bad luck. D. They don’t make efforts to succeed. 53. What can be inferred from paragraph 5? A. Whether we will succeed depends on our attitudes. B. One’s expectation is the key to future success. C. Thoughts and beliefs are the result of creative mind. D. Setting our expectations is essential before taking action. 54. What’s the function of the last paragraph? A. The proof of the author’s points. B. The conclusion of the argument. C. An introduction to another topic. D. A comparison between two views. 55. Which is the best title for the text? A. The secrets of success B. Success is a choice C. Develop our confidence D. How to achieve success 第Ⅱ卷（满分35分） 第一节：阅读表达（共5个小题，每小题2分，满分10分） 阅读短文，按照题目要求用英语回答问题。 I used to be a selfish girl and I only thought of myself. I did not care about helping others, but only about my look, clothes, money and grades. One day, I was suddenly influenced by my neighbor, who is now in college, and ended up wanting to volunteer for others. He had so much fun with volunteering and told me that he felt extremely good after helping others. I hoped to get the same results, for I felt worthless everywhere then. I viewed almost everything in a negative way, and I figured I had to experience something that would make me appreciate things that I had. I volunteered at the nursing home for a year where my neighbor volunteered. I brought snacks, coffee and games for the elderly patients, talked to them while sharing snacks, and played games like chess and checkers with them. Because they were Koreans, they often had trouble communicating with the helpers who were hired to help them. I sometimes translated things for them and offered to be their translator whenever they needed help. By volunteering at the nursing home, I changed a lot. I realized how lucky I am to speak both Korean and English and that I should help other people learn Korean as well. I had learned many life lessons through volunteering. By helping others, I felt needed in society. Not only did it enhance my confidence, but it also allowed others to benefit from it. Volunteering is a great opportunity to improve oneself, others, and the whole society. So if you ever have the chance, volunteer! It's something you won't regret! 56. What kind of person was the author before volunteering? (no more than 5 words) ____________________________________________________________ 57. Why did the author want to volunteer one day? (no more than 10 words) ____________________________________________________________ 58.

Like many other parents in her village who marry and have children at a young age, she used to have little knowledge about how she should look after her child to ensure he can grow healthy and strong and reach his full potential. But everything changed when she received Nurturing Care Parenting training from village volunteers. Nurturing Care Parenting aims to help every child get the best possible start in life, including through healthcare, early education and play. It also helps parents avoid violence or punishment to discipline their children. “I learned a lot from Nurturing Care Parenting,” Dim Nang Lao says. “I learned how to care for my child’s health, nutrition and education. I learned how to talk to him when he is wrong and comfort him when he is sad. I learned that a child is a white paper. If I hit him, he will learn those actions from me.” Dim Nang Lao is one of many who have benefited from the training. According to a local official named Ang Chenda the training has reached five villages and has improved the lives of many families. She says she welcomes the training as many parents in the area did not fully understand what they needed to do to fully support their children’s needs and development and often spent most of their time earning an income through farm work. “After the training, their understanding of raising young children is far different,” Ang Chenda says. “They are more aware of the importance of caring for their children. They take their children to the health center for check-ups, issue birth certificates for their children and send their children to school. They also reduce violence and use positive discipline instead.” Dim Nang Lao says she is grateful for the opportunity to learn about positive parenting and apply it in her daily life. “I hope that more parents in our country can receive this training and benefit from it as I do,” she adds. 41. What can we learn about many parents in Dim Nang Lao’s village? A. They cared little about their kids’ physical health. B. They got married and had children at an old age. C. They couldn’t make a living through farm work. D. They didn’t know how to care for their kids well. 42. What is the main goal of the Nurturing Care Parenting training? A. To increase parents’ income through farm work. B. To help children achieve a healthy and promising start in life. C. To encourage children to focus on early education independently. D. To teach parents stricter methods of disciplining their children. 43. What does Dim Nang Lao focus on in paragraph 3? A. What she learned from her son. B. Her son’s change over the time. C. What she gained from the training. D. The goal of the parenting program. 44. Why is Ang Chenda mentioned in the text? A. To speak highly of Nurturing Care Parenting. B. To introduce a harmonious parent-child relationship. C. To show the popularity of the training outside villages. D. To highlight the positive influence of parenting on kids. 45. What does Dim Nang Lao expect of Nurturing Care Parenting? A. It will criticize traditional parenting. B. It will be received extensively. C. It will offer jobs to more parents. D. It will be well obtained worldwild. 【答案】41. D 42. B 43. C 44. A 45. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。文章主要报道了在柬埔寨东北部一个偏远山区，一位名叫Dim Nang Lao的年轻母亲通过接受“养育关怀育儿”培训，学会了如何更好地照顾和教育自己的孩子，从而改善了家庭生活和孩子成长环境的故事。 【41题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第一段“Like many other parents in her village who marry and have children at a young age, she used to have little knowledge about how she should look after her child to ensure he can grow healthy and strong and reach his full potential. (和她所在村庄的许多其他年轻时就结婚生子的父母一样，她过去几乎不知道该如何照顾自己的孩子，以确保他能够健康茁壮地成长并充分发挥自己的潜力。)”可知，像Dim Nang Lao一样，村里许多年轻时就结婚生子的父母过去几乎不知道该如何照顾孩子，以确保孩子能健康茁壮地成长并充分发挥潜力。故选D。 【42题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段“Nurturing Care Parenting aims to help every child get the best possible start in life, including through healthcare, early education and play. It also helps parents avoid violence or punishment to discipline their children. (“养育关怀式育儿”旨在帮助每个孩子在人生中获得尽可能好的开端，包括通过医疗保健、早期教育和游戏等方面来实现。它还帮助父母避免使用暴力或惩罚手段来管教孩子。)”可知，“养育关怀式育儿”培训旨在帮助每个孩子在生活中获得尽可能好的开端，包括通过医疗保健、早期教育和游戏等方面，同时也帮助父母避免使用暴力或惩罚手段来管教孩子。故选B。 【43题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第三段““I learned a lot from Nurturing Care Parenting,” Dim Nang Lao says. “I learned how to care for my child’s health, nutrition and education. I learned how to talk to him when he is wrong and comfort him when he is sad. I learned that a child is a white paper. If I hit him, he will learn those actions from me.” (“我从‘养育关怀式育儿’中学到了很多东西，”Dim Nang Lao说，“我学会了如何照顾孩子的健康、营养和教育。我学会了在他犯错时如何与他沟通，在他难过时如何安慰他。我明白了孩子就像一张白纸。如果我打他，他就会从我这里学到那些暴力行为。”)”可知，第三段讲述了Dim Nang Lao阐述了自己从“养育关怀式育儿”培训中学到的内容，包括如何照顾孩子的健康、营养和教育，如何在孩子犯错和难过时与他沟通交流，以及认识到孩子会模仿大人的行为等。也就是说，第三段重点讲述的是她从培训中获得的东西。故选C。 【44题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第四段“According to a local official named Ang Chenda, the training has reached five villages and has improved the lives of many families. She says she welcomes the training as many parents in the area did not fully understand what they needed to do to fully support their children’s needs and development and often spent most of their time earning an income through farm work. (据一位名叫Ang Chenda的当地官员称，这项培训已经覆盖了五个村庄，并改善了许多家庭的生活。她表示，她很欢迎这项培训，因为该地区的许多父母并不完全清楚他们需要做些什么来充分满足孩子的需求和促进孩子的发展，而且他们常常把大部分时间花在农活上以赚取收入。)”以及第五段““After the training, their understanding of raising young children is far different,” Ang Chenda says. “They are more aware of the importance of caring for their children. They take their children to the health center for check-ups, issue birth certificates for their children and send their children to school. They also reduce violence and use positive discipline instead.” (“在接受培训后，他们对养育幼儿的理解有了很大的不同，”Ang Chenda说，“他们更加意识到照顾孩子的重要性。他们会带孩子去健康中心做检查，为孩子办理出生证明，送孩子上学。他们也减少了暴力行为，转而采用积极的管教方式。”)”可知，Ang Chenda作为当地官员，介绍了培训覆盖的范围、对家庭生活的改善，以及父母在接受培训后的变化，强调了父母对养育孩子的理解加深，更加重视照顾孩子等方面。故选A。 【45题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章最后一段“Dim Nang Lao says she is grateful for the opportunity to learn about positive parenting and apply it in her daily life. “I hope that more parents in our country can receive this training and benefit from it as I do,” she adds. (Dim Nang Lao说，她很感激有机会学习积极的育儿方法，并将其应用到日常生活中。“我希望我们国家更多的父母能够接受这种培训，并像我一样从中受益。”她补充道。)”可知，Dim Nang Lao很感激有机会学习积极的育儿方法并应用到日常生活中，她希望自己国家更多的父母能接受这种培训并像她一样从中受益。也就是说，Dim Nang Lao对“养育关怀式育儿”培训的期望是它将被广泛接受。故选B。 C An AI from Google DeepMind has achieved a silver medal score at this year’s International Mathematical Olympiad (IMO), the first time any AI has made it to the podium (领奖台). The IMO is considered the world’s most famous competition for young mathematicians. In January, Google DeepMind demonstrated AlphaGeometry, an AI system that could answer some IMO geometry questions as well as humans. However, this was not from a live competition, and it couldn’t answer questions from other mathematical disciplines. Google DeepMind has now released a new AI, called AlphaProof, which can solve a wider range of mathematical problems. It is an improved version of AlphaGeometry that can solve more geometry questions. When the team tested both systems together on this year’s IMO questions, they answered four out of six questions correctly, giving them a score of 28 out of a possible 42 points. This was enough to win a silver medal and just one point under this year’s gold medal threshold (门槛). At the contest in Bath, UK, 58 competitors won a gold medal and 123 won a silver medal. “We are all very much aware that AI will eventually be better than humans at solving most mathematical problems, but the rate at which AI is improving is breathtaking,” says Gregor Dolinar, the IMO president. “Missing the gold medal at IMO 2024 by just one point a few days ago is truly impressive.” While AlphaProof’s performance is impressive, it works slowly, taking up to three days to find some solutions instead of the 4. 5 hours per three questions that competitors are allowed. It also failed to answer both questions on combinatorics, which is the study of counting and arranging numbers. “We are still working to understand why this is, which will hopefully lead us to improve the system,” says Alex Davies at Google DeepMind. 46. What do we know about AlphaProof in paragraph 3? A. Its all functions. B. Its potential clients. C. Its advantages over AlphaGeometry. D. Its abilities to analyse problems. 47. What can be learned about this year’s International Mathematical Olympiad? A. It took place in Bath, UK. B. There were 10 questions in the contest. C. 181 competitors took part in the contest. D. This year’s gold medal threshold was 30 points. 48. What is one of the limitations of AlphaProof? A. It can only solve geometry-related problems. B. It is much slower than human competitors in answering questions. C. It has difficulty in understanding the basic concepts of mathematics. D. It requires a large amount of computing resources to function 49. What may be Alex Davies’ attitude to the development of AlphaProof? A. Neutral. B. Uncaring. C. Disapproving. D. Positive. 50. What’s the best title of the text? A. DeepMind AI Gets Silver Medal at IMO 2024 B. DeepMind AI Is Developed to Take Part in IMO 2024 C. AI Manages to Solve Difficult Mathematical Problems Well D. AI Will Be Better than Humans at Solving Mathematical Problems 【答案】46. C 47. A 48. B 49. D 50. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇新文报道。文章报道了谷歌DeepMind研发的人工智能AlphaProof在2024年国际数学奥林匹克竞赛中获得银牌，还阐述了其优势、局限性等情况。 【46题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“Google DeepMind has now released a new AI, called AlphaProof, which can solve a wider range of mathematical problems. It is an improved version of AlphaGeometry that can solve more geometry questions.(谷歌DeepMind现在发布了一种新的人工智能，名为AlphaProof，它可以解决更广泛的数学问题。它是AlphaGeometry的改进版本，可以解决更多的几何问题)”可知，AlphaProof优于AlphaGeometry，它能解决更广泛的数学问题和更多几何问题。故选C项。 【47题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中“At the contest in Bath, UK, 58 competitors won a gold medal and 123 won a silver medal.(在英国巴斯举行的比赛中，58名参赛者获得金牌，123名获得银牌)”可知，今年的国际数学奥林匹克竞赛在英国巴斯举行。故选A项。 【48题详解】 细节理解题。根据第六段中“While AlphaProof’s performance is impressive, it works slowly, taking up to three days to find some solutions instead of the 4. 5 hours per three questions that competitors are allowed.(虽然AlphaProof的表现令人印象深刻，但它的工作速度很慢，找到一些解决方案需要长达三天的时间，而不是参赛者被允许的每三道题4.5小时)”可知，AlphaProof在回答问题方面比人类参赛者慢得多。故选B项。 【49题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中Alex Davies的话“We are still working to understand why this is, which will hopefully lead us to improve the system(我们仍在努力弄清楚为什么会这样，这有望让我们改进这个系统)”可知，Alex Davies表示正在努力寻找问题原因以改进系统，由此可推断他对AlphaProof的发展持积极态度。故选D项。 【50题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段中“An AI from Google DeepMind has achieved a silver medal score at this year’s International Mathematical Olympiad (IMO), the first time any AI has made it to the podium (领奖台).(谷歌DeepMind的一款人工智能在今年的国际数学奥林匹克竞赛(IMO)中获得了银牌成绩，这是人工智能首次登上领奖台)”以及后文围绕该人工智能在竞赛中的表现等内容的介绍可知，文章主要讲述的是谷歌DeepMind的人工智能在2024年国际数学奥林匹克竞赛中获得银牌这一事件。A选项“DeepMind AI Gets Silver Medal at IMO 2024 (DeepMind人工智能在2024年国际数学奥林匹克竞赛中获得银牌)”能概括文章主要内容，最适合做文章标题。故选A项。 D From now on, never spend your precious time thinking of reasons for your failures and shortcomings. Instead, realize that the seeds of success were planted within you when you were born. Only you have the power to make those seeds grow. The seeds, and the power to grow them, are contained in the most awesome machine ever created: the human mind. Success is a choice and not a chance. You were born a winner. You were born rich. You can be a success if only you make the right choice. You cannot be successful without first developing your self-esteem. Your level of self-esteem is always based on the degree of control that you are able to exercise over yourself, and thus over your life. People with low self-esteem are people who do not believe that they have any power, or responsibility for their lives. They are the perennial (长期的) victims and martyrs. They are leaves tossed (摇摆) by the winds of chance blown about with any sudden change in the weather. You can exercise control over your life only to the degree that you believe that you are responsible for everything that happens in your life. Failures think that everything happens by accident and chance. Successful people realize that they are responsible. Everything happens as a result of something. If we can identify the cause, we can control the effect. We are responsible for what we choose to think and believe. One generally rises to the level that one expects. We are responsible for setting our expectations. Our success is dependent upon our level of confidence. If you associate with positive-thinking people, you are definitely going to achieve success. On the contrary, the opposite happens. We are responsible for finding, planting, and nurturing the seeds that contain future victory, born from setbacks. In short, in all areas of your life, whether they are financial, physical, emotional, or spiritual, you are responsible. Once you recognize this, accept it, and firmly believe it, you are on the road to success. 51. Why are people with low self-esteem compared to leaves? A. Because they are ready to change their minds. B. Because they are easily affected by windy weather. C. Because they don’t have the power to face their fate. D. Because they can’t exercise control over themselves. 52. What would losers think? A. Success is the result of hard work. B. Working hard will lead to success. C. Their failure is only because of bad luck. D. They don’t make efforts to succeed. 53.

B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇议论文。主要介绍的是成功是一种选择，而非偶然，并探讨了自尊、态度和责任在实现成功中的关键作用。 【51题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“People with low self-esteem are people who do not believe that they have any power, or responsibility for their lives. They are the perennial victims and martyrs. They are leaves tossed by the winds of chance blown about with any sudden change in the weather.(低自尊的人不相信自己拥有任何力量或对自己生活的责任。他们是长期的受害者和殉道者。他们就像被风吹得四处飘摇的树叶，随着天气的突然变化而摇摆不定。)”可知，低自尊的人无法掌控自己的生活，因此他们像树叶一样容易受到外界影响。故选D项。 【52题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中的“Failures think that everything happens by accident and chance. (失败者认为一切都是偶然发生的。)”可知，失败者往往将自己的失败归因于坏运气。故选C项。 【53题详解】 推理判断题。根据第五段中的“We are responsible for what we choose to think and believe. One generally rises to the level that one expects. We are responsible for setting our expectations. Our success is dependent upon our level of confidence.(我们对自己选择思考和相信的内容负责。一个人通常会达到他所期望的水平。我们有责任设定自己的期望。我们的成功取决于我们的信心水平。)”可知，第五段强调了态度的重要性，认为我们的成功取决于我们对自己和未来的信念与期望，因此态度决定成败。故选A项。 【54题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“In short, in all areas of your life, whether they are financial, physical, emotional, or spiritual, you are responsible. Once you recognize this, accept it, and firmly believe it, you are on the road to success.(总之，在你生活的所有领域，无论是财务、身体、情感还是精神方面，你都要承担责任。一旦你认识到这一点，接受它并坚定地相信它，你就走上了成功的道路。)”可知，我们要取得成功，就要对生活的各个方面负责，由此可知，这一段是对全文观点的总结和结论。故选B项。 【55题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第二段中的“Success is a choice and not a chance. You were born a winner. You were born rich. You can be a success if only you make the right choice.(成功是一种选择，而不是偶然。你生来就是赢家。你生来就很富有。只要你做出正确的选择，你就能够成功。)”以及尾段中的“In short, in all areas of your life, whether they are financial, physical, emotional, or spiritual, you are responsible. Once you recognize this, accept it, and firmly believe it, you are on the road to success.(简而言之，在你生活的所有领域，无论是财务、身体、情感还是精神方面，你都要承担责任。一旦你认识到这一点，接受它，并且坚定地相信它，你就走上了成功的道路。)”可知，本文主要介绍的是成功是一种选择而不是偶然，只要做出正确的选择，通过承担责任、培养自信和设定期望，每个人都可以选择成功，所以，题目“成功是一种选择”概括了本文的主题，适合作为最佳标题。故选B项。 第Ⅱ卷（满分35分） 第一节：阅读表达（共5个小题，每小题2分，满分10分） 阅读短文，按照题目要求用英语回答问题。 I used to be a selfish girl and I only thought of myself. I did not care about helping others, but only about my look, clothes, money and grades. One day, I was suddenly influenced by my neighbor, who is now in college, and ended up wanting to volunteer for others. He had so much fun with volunteering and told me that he felt extremely good after helping others. I hoped to get the same results, for I felt worthless everywhere then. I viewed almost everything in a negative way, and I figured I had to experience something that would make me appreciate things that I had. I volunteered at the nursing home for a year where my neighbor volunteered. I brought snacks, coffee and games for the elderly patients, talked to them while sharing snacks, and played games like chess and checkers with them. Because they were Koreans, they often had trouble communicating with the helpers who were hired to help them. I sometimes translated things for them and offered to be their translator whenever they needed help. By volunteering at the nursing home, I changed a lot. I realized how lucky I am to speak both Korean and English and that I should help other people learn Korean as well. I had learned many life lessons through volunteering. By helping others, I felt needed in society. Not only did it enhance my confidence, but it also allowed others to benefit from it. Volunteering is a great opportunity to improve oneself, others, and the whole society. So if you ever have the chance, volunteer! It's something you won't regret! 56. What kind of person was the author before volunteering? (no more than 5 words) ____________________________________________________________ 57. Why did the author want to volunteer one day? (no more than 10 words) ____________________________________________________________ 58. What did the author do when the elderly patients had difficulty in communicating with the workers?(no more than 10 words) ____________________________________________________________ 59. What does the underlined word mean in paragraph4?(one word) ____________________________________________________________ 60. What do you think of volunteering after reading the text? Please explain.(no more than 25 words) ____________________________________________________________ 【答案】56. Selfish and negative. 57. He wanted to feel good by helping others. 58. The author would offer to be their translator. 59. strengthen. 60. Participating in volunteer activities is an opportunity to improve ourselves, help others and the society, so we should take an active part in volunteer activities. 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。作者用自己的经历告诉我们参加志愿者活动是提升自己、帮助他人和整个社会的机会，我们应该积极参与自愿者活动。 【56题详解】 考查细节理解。根据第一段中“I used to be a selfish girl and I only thought of myself.(我曾经是一个自私的女孩，我只考虑自己)”和第二段中“I viewed almost everything in a negative way(我几乎对每件事都持消极态度)”可知，在做志愿者之前，作者是一个自私且消极的人。故答案为：Selfish and negative. 【57题详解】 考查细节理解。根据第二段中“One day, I was suddenly influenced by my neighbor, who is now in college, and ended up wanting to volunteer for others. He had so much fun with volunteering and told me that he felt extremely good after helping others. I hoped to get the same results, for I felt worthless everywhere then.(有一天，我突然受到了正在上大学的邻居的影响，最后我想为别人做志愿者。他在志愿服务中得到了很多乐趣，他告诉我，在帮助别人之后，他感觉非常好。我希望得到同样的结果，因为那时我觉得自己一无是处)”可知，作者受到作志愿者的邻居的影响，也想通过做志愿者得到乐趣，让自己感觉更好一些，所以想去当志愿者。故答案为：He wanted to feel good by helping others. 【58题详解】 考查细节理解。根据第三段中“Because they were Koreans, they often had trouble communicating with the helpers who were hired to help them. I sometimes translated things for them and offered to be their translator whenever they needed help.(由于他们是韩国人，他们经常与雇佣来帮助他们的助手沟通困难。我有时会为他们翻译一些东西，并在他们需要帮助的时候提供翻译)”可知，当老年患者与工作人员沟通有困难时，作者会为他们翻译东西，提供翻译服务。故答案为：The author would offer to be their translator. 【59题详解】 考查词义猜测。划线词所在段介绍了志愿者工作给作者带来的积极影响，结合划线词所在句“Not only did it enhance my confidence, but it also allowed others to benefit from it.(这不仅enhance了我的信心，也让别人从中受益)”中“my confidence”可推知，志愿者工作“增强”了作者的自信心，enhance的意思是“增强，提高”，可用strengthen来解释。故答案为strengthen. 【60题详解】 考查推理判断。本是为开放性问题，言之成理即可。文中作者用自己的经历告诉我们参加志愿者活动是提升自己、帮助他人和整个社会的机会，所以我们应该积极参与自愿者活动。故答案为：Participating in volunteer activities is an opportunity to improve ourselves, help others and the society, so we should take an active part in volunteer activities. 第二节：书面表达（满分25分） 61. 假设你叫李津，你的英国朋友Chris所在的学校要组织来中国进行主题夏令营活动，每个学生可以从以下三个主题营中选择一个参加：1.唐诗学习夏令营;2.乒乓球训练营;3.剪纸学习夏令营。Chris来信希望你能给他推荐一个。请你给他回信，内容包括： (1)对Chris的来访表示欢迎; (2)你推荐的课程及推荐理由; (3)对这次学访提一些生活方面的建议。 注意：(1)词数不少于100词; (2)可以适当加入细节，使内容充实，行文连贯; (3)文章的开头和结尾已经给出，不计入总词数。 参考词汇：唐诗(Tang poems);剪纸(paper-cutting) Dear Chris, ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Yours, Li Jin 【答案】Dear Chris, I am glad that you are going to join in summer camps in China.
