Jessie Joy Rees was one of those people. Jessie was an energetic, athletic girl who always had a smile on her face until she was diagnosed (诊断) with a shocking disease. Doctors estimated that she had just 1% chance of survival and less than a year to live. With no other treatment options, her family entered Jessie for a clinical trial (临床试验). For weeks she underwent 30 rounds of radiotherapy (放射治疗). Amazingly, the pain and uncertainty never lessened her shine, and Jessie always remained positive throughout it all. One day, she learned that many of the sick children in the hospital couldn’t go home, and decided to find a way to help reduce their stress. The next morning, Jessie’s dad, Erik Rees, found his daughter filling paper bags with stickers, toys, artwork, and other fun small things at home. Then he asked the hospital if Jessie could hand them out around the children’s cancer wards (病房). They said yes, as long as they replaced the paper bags with plastic jars (罐). That’s how Jessie’s JoyJars were born! “JoyJars are plastic jars stuffed with new games, toys, and activities for kids fighting cancer,” said Erik. The jars were named for Jessie, whose middle name was Joy. Sadly, Jessie lost her fight with cancer less than one year after her diagnosis, but she managed to make over 3,000 jars while fighting cancer. Although Jessie’s gone, her family has continued her work, starting a non-profit organization called NEGU, short for Jessie’s personal motto (座右铭): “Never ever give up.” So far, more than400,000 JoyJars have been delivered to children with cancer. It’s the Rees family’s way to honor their daughter’s kindness. In 2023, NASCAR team Spire Motorsports announced they were going to provide economic support for NEGU for the year. Spire Motorsports driver Corey LaJoie, as part of Team NEGU, hopes the partnership will raise awareness and help children battling cancer to never ever give up. 4. What can we learn about Jessie from paragraph 2? A. She gave up her social life due to her condition. B. She kept a positive attitude despite her illness. C. She struggled to, keep up with her athletic training. D. She refused to accept any form of medical treatment. 5. What inspired Jessie to create JoyJars? A. A story she heard from her family. B. Her love for stickers, toys, and artwork. C. Her desire to relieve the stress of sick children. D. A documentary about children’s hospitals. 6. What is the main purpose of the organization NEGU? A. To promote research on cancer treatment. B. To raise awareness about the causes of cancer. C. To provide free medical treatment for cancer patients. D. To carry on Jessie’s work and bring joy to children with cancer. 7. How did Spire Motorsports support NEGU? A. By having its drivers volunteer at the children’s hospital. B. By organizing fundraising events. C. By donating money to the organization. D. By providing medical resources. 【答案】4. B 5. C 6. D 7. C 【解析】 【导语】本文体裁为记叙文。文章通过讲述杰西的故事，展现了她在与癌症抗争的过程中仍然保持积极乐观的态度，并通过创建JoyJars来帮助其他患病儿童的感人经历。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“Jessie was an energetic, athletic girl who always had a smile on her face until she was diagnosed (诊断) with a shocking disease. (杰西是一个精力充沛、爱运动的女孩，她的脸上总是挂着微笑，直到她被诊断出患有一种令人震惊的疾病。)”、“Amazingly, the pain and uncertainty never lessened her shine, and Jessie always remained positive throughout it all. (令人惊讶的是，痛苦和不确定从未减弱她的光芒，杰西始终保持积极的态度。)”可知，尽管患病，Jessie一直保持积极的态度。故选B。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“One day, she learned that many of the sick children in the hospital couldn’t go home, and decided to find a way to help reduce their stress. The next morning, Jessie’s dad, Erik Rees, found his daughter filling paper bags with stickers, toys, artwork, and other fun small things at home. Then he asked the hospital if Jessie could hand them out around the children’s cancer wards (病房). They said yes, as long as they replaced the paper bags with plastic jars (罐). That’s how Jessie’s JoyJars were born! (有一天，她得知医院里很多生病的孩子不能回家，于是决定想办法帮助他们减轻压力。第二天早上，杰西的爸爸埃里克·里斯发现女儿在家里把贴纸、玩具、艺术品和其他有趣的小东西装满了纸袋。然后他问医院杰西是否可以在儿童癌症病房分发这些卡片。他们同意了，只要他们把纸袋换成塑料瓶。这就是Jessie的JoyJars诞生的原因！)”可知，Jessie创作JoyJars是因为她想减轻生病儿童的压力。故选C。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据倒数第三段中““JoyJars are plastic jars stuffed with new games, toys, and activities for kids fighting cancer,” said Erik. (埃里克说：“JoyJars是一种塑料罐子，里面装满了新的游戏、玩具和抗癌儿童活动。”)”和倒数第二段“Although Jessie’s gone, her family has continued her work, starting a non-profit organization called NEGU, short for Jessie’s personal motto (座右铭): “Never ever give up.” (虽然杰西去世了，但她的家人继续她的工作，成立了一个名为NEGU的非营利组织，这是杰西个人座右铭的缩写：“永不放弃。”)”可知，NEGU的主要目的是继承Jessie的工作，并给患癌症的儿童带来快乐。故选D。 【7题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段中“In 2023, NASCAR team Spire Motorsports announced they were going to provide economic support for NEGU for the year. (2023年，纳斯卡车队Spire Motorsports宣布，他们将为NEGU提供当年的经济支持。)”可知，Spire Motorsports通过捐赠资金支持了NEGU。故选C。 C Mosquitoes (蚊子) are actually some of the most dangerous creatures on the planet. According to the World Health Organization, mosquitoes cause over 700,000 deaths every year. But there is new hope in the battle between humans and mosquitoes. Scientists at Auburn University may have found the secret to stopping mosquitoes from spreading diseases. “We have created a type of fabric (织物) that could prevent mosquito bites,” says John Beckmann, who led the study. Beckmann remembered a camping trip during which he had almost been eaten alive by mosquitoes despite wearing a long-sleeved shirt. “People often say, ‘Wear long sleeves,’” said Beckmann. “But long sleeves don’t block mosquitoes.” While some companies are producing clothes that they say are bite-proof (防叮咬的), the clothes contain some harmful chemicals or are made of thick fabrics that are too hot to wear and are too easy for mosquitoes to overcome. That’s because there are holes in the makeup of their fabrics that mosquitoes and other biting insects can get through. The key was to discover a fabric that removed these gaps and was still cool enough to wear in hot weather. “That is the reason why this project is not as easy as people think,” Beckmann said. The team experimented by using a computer numerical control knitting (编织) machine that could be programmed with different patterns until they found a bite-proof one. But the researchers are still not satisfied and will be spending the next year perfecting the comfort aspect of the material and eventually creating a clothing line. The hope is that finally any type of fabric can be knitted into the lab’s pattern so that all kinds of clothing companies from baby clothing producers to dress designers could create bite-proof clothing. 8. What happened to Beckmann during his camping trip? A. He was badly bitten by mosquitoes. B. He discovered a new kind of mosquito. C. He felt unbearably hot in long-sleeved clothes. D. He mastered some skills in dealing with mosquitoes. 9. What is paragraph 3 mainly about? A. The popularity of bite-proof clothing. B. Disadvantages of existing bite-proof clothing. C. Advancement in bite-proof clothing technology. D. Comparisons between different types of bite-proof clothes. 10. What do the researchers plan to do next? A. Work with different clothing companies. B. Improve the material’s comfort. C. Sell their fabric worldwide. D. Produce baby clothes. 11. What is the best title for the text? A. Mosquitoes: the silent killers B. The battle against mosquitoes C. A step towards a bite-free future D. Proven ways to prevent mosquito bites 【答案】8. A 9. B 10. B 11. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文，本文主要讲的是来自Auburn大学的科学家John Beckmann及其团队发现了一种新型布料，能够阻止蚊子叮咬。这种布料通过计算机数控编织机制作，具有与高质量运动服相似的特性，既透气又能防止蚊子叮咬，为防蚊战斗带来了新的希望。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“Beckmann remembered a camping trip during which he had almost been eaten alive by mosquitoes despite wearing a long-sleeved shirt.(Beckmann记得在一次露营旅行中，尽管穿着长袖衬衫，他还是差点被蚊子活活吃掉)”可知，Beckmann在露营旅行中被蚊子咬得很严重，故选A。 【9题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第三段“While some companies are producing clothes that they say are bite-proof (防叮咬的), the clothes contain some harmful chemicals or are made of thick fabric s that are too hot to wear and are too easy for mosquitoes to overcome. That’s because there are holes in the makeup of their fabrics that mosquitoes and other biting insects can get through.(虽然一些公司正在生产他们声称防咬的衣服，但这些衣服含有一些有害的化学物质，或者是由厚厚的织物制成的，这些织物太热而不适合穿，而且太容易被蚊子叮咬。这是因为它们的织物上有洞，蚊子和其他咬人的昆虫可以通过)”可知，本段主要讲述现有防咬服的缺点，含有一些有害的化学物质，或者是太厚而不适合穿，而且太容易被蚊子叮咬，故选B。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中“But the researchers are still not satisfied and will be spending the next year perfecting the comfort aspect of the material and eventually creating a clothing line.(但研究人员仍然不满意，他们将在明年花时间完善这种材料的舒适度，并最终创建一个服装系列)”可知，研究人员接下来计划提高这种材料的舒适度，故选B。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。根据全文内容，结合最后一段“The hope is that finally any type of fabric can be knitted into the lab’s pattern so that all kinds of clothing companies from baby clothing producers to dress designers could create bite-proof clothing.(他们希望最终任何类型的织物都能被编织成实验室的图案，这样从婴儿服装生产商到服装设计师的各种服装公司都能生产出防咬的衣服)”可知，本文主要讲的是来自Auburn大学的科学家John Beckmann及其团队发现了一种新型布料，能够阻止蚊子叮咬。这种布料通过计算机数控编织机制作，具有与高质量运动服相似的特性，既透气又能防止蚊子叮咬，为防蚊战斗带来了新的希望，因此本文最好的题目是C选项“A Step Towards a Bite-Free Future(迈向没有叮咬的未来的一步)”，故选C。 D The global food waste conundrum continues to grow, but smart tech developed in Australia could solve it significantly, one farm at a time. A new healthy vegetable snack draws on innovation from Australia’s national science agency CSIRO together with start-up Nutri V. The new Nutri V Goodies snacks contain vegetables, which can’t be sold and would otherwise have gone to waste, often as landfill (填埋的垃圾) or animal feed. Raquel Said, CEO of Nutri V, explained that the company was born from a farming business with enthusiasm for innovation and sustainability (可持续性)。 “Part of growing vegetables can involve ending up with tonnes that don’t meet standards or there’s an oversupply, yet they’re all still perfectly nutritious,” Ms Said explained, “We wanted to create a business to upcycle that waste into a sustainable yet delicious solution, which is what we’ve done with Nutri V Goodies,” she said. “We think they will help Australians increase their vegetable consumption (摄入、消耗) while supporting farmers in reducing waste.” Nutri V Goodies, which are a convenient option for people to stay on top of their vegetable intake (摄入量), have two servings of vegetables in every pack and have a higher vegetable content and health star rating than other snack foods. CSIRO’s director of Agriculture and Food Dr Michael Robertson said, vegetable-rich food innovation such as Nutri V Goodies helps farmers add real value to their businesses, while supporting sustainability in the agrifood section. “With CSIRO’s expert knowledge and our world-class food research facilities, we can support the creation of healthy concept products and in the case of Nutri V, developing an innovative process can take it to market,” Dr Robertson said. “CSIRO working together with Nutri V at the forefront of agricultural production is a good example of how research can work with industry.” 12. What does the underlined word “conundrum” in paragraph I probably mean? A. Recovery. B. Problem. C. Reduction. D. Collection. 13. What can we learn from Raquel Said’s words about Nutri V Goodies? A. They need big improvement in nutrition. B. They hardly meet standards on the market. C. They help increase people’s vegetable intake D. They are more delicious than other snack foods. 14. What was Dr Michael Robertson’s attitude to the partnership between CSIRO and Nutri V? A. Doubtful. B. Intolerant. C. Uninterested. D. Supportive. 15. What would be the best title for the text? A. CSIRO is dealing with food waste with snacks B. Nutri V supports the creation of healthy products C. Vegetable consumption wins popularity in Australia D. The agrifood section has become sustainable recently 【答案】12. B 13. C 14. D 15. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了澳大利亚研发的智能技术应用于新型健康蔬菜零食 Nutri V Goodies 的生产中，该零食利用原本会被浪费的蔬菜制作而成，既能帮助澳大利亚人增加蔬菜摄入量，又能助力农民减少浪费。 【12题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线单词所在句“The global food waste conundrum continues to grow, but smart tech developed in Australia could solve it significantly, one farm at a time.(全球食物浪费这……仍在不断加剧，但澳大利亚研发的智能技术或许能够显著地解决这一问题，而且可以从一家农场开始逐步推进。)”可知，“conundrum”所在句子提到全球食物浪费的某种情况在不断加剧，而后文又说澳大利亚研发的智能技术能够显著地解决它（it 指代前面提到的事物）。由此可以推断，这里说的是全球食物浪费是一个需要解决的问题，“conundrum”应该是“问题”的意思。选项B“problem”意为“问题”，与此相符。故选B。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第三段““Part of growing vegetables can involve ending up with tonnes that don’t meet standards or there’s an oversupply, yet they’re all still perfectly nutritious,” Ms Said explained, “We wanted to create a business to upcycle that waste into a sustainable yet delicious solution, which is what we’ve done with Nutri V Goodies,” she said.( Raquel Said女士解释道：“种植蔬菜的过程中，常常会出现这样的情况：最终会有大量蔬菜不符合标准，或者出现供过于求的状况，然而这些蔬菜仍然富含营养。我们希望创建一家企业，将这些被浪费的蔬菜进行升级再造，变成既可持续又美味的产品，而这正是我们通过Nutri V美味零食所实现的目标。”)”可知，Raquel Said女士提到种植蔬菜过程中会有大量不符合标准或供过于求但仍营养丰富的蔬菜，Nutri V Goodies将这些原本会被浪费的蔬菜升级再造，并且认为这种零食将有助于澳大利亚人增加蔬菜摄入量，同时帮助农民减少浪费。由此可知，从Raquel Said关于 Nutri V Goodies 的话中我们可以了解到它们有助于增加人们的蔬菜摄入量。故选C。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“CSIRO’s director of Agriculture and Food Dr Michael Robertson said, vegetable-rich food innovation such as Nutri V Goodies helps farmers add real value to their businesses, while supporting sustainability in the agrifood section. “With CSIRO’s expert knowledge and our world-class food research facilities, we can support the creation of healthy concept products and in the case of Nutri V, developing an innovative process can take it to market,” Dr Robertson said. “CSIRO working together with Nutri V at the forefront of agricultural production is a good example of how research can work with industry.”(联邦科学与工业研究组织农业与食品部门的主管Michael Robertson博士表示，像Nutri V美味零食这样富含蔬菜的食品创新，既能帮助农民为自身企业增添真正的价值，又能推动农业食品领域的可持续发展。“凭借联邦科学与工业研究组织的专业知识以及我们世界级的食品研究设施，我们能够助力开发健康的概念产品。就Nutri V而言，我们可以通过开发一种创新工艺将其推向市场。” Robertson博士说道，“联邦科学与工业研究组织与Nutri V携手走在农业生产的前沿，这很好地诠释了科研如何与产业合作。”)”可知，Robertson博士认为像Nutri V Goodies这样富含蔬菜的食品创新，有助于农民为企业增添真正的价值，同时推动农业食品领域的可持续发展。他还提到凭借CSIRO的专业知识和世界级的食品研究设施，能够支持健康概念产品的创造，并且CSIRO与Nutri V在农业生产前沿的合作是科研与产业合作的一个很好的范例。也就是说，Robertson博士对CSIRO和Nutri V之间的合作持支持态度。故选D。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。根据文章内容可知，文章开篇指出全球食物浪费问题严重，澳大利亚研发的智能技术有望解决这一问题，接着重点介绍了新型健康蔬菜零食 Nutri V Goodies，它利用原本会被浪费的蔬菜制作而成，并且提到了澳大利亚国家科学机构CSIRO在其中的作用，即凭借专业知识和设施支持这种创新产品，帮助解决食物浪费问题。选项A“CSIRO is dealing with food waste with snacks(CSIRO 正通过零食来处理食物浪费问题)”准确地概括了文章的核心内容，强调了CSIRO利用研发的零食来解决食物浪费问题。故选A。 第二节 七选五(共5小题;每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) Puppies (小狗) are a lot of fun, but they also take a lot of work. There are many things your puppy needs to grow up well. ____16____ Here are some tips to help you train a puppy so your new pet can be a happy family member. Socializing ____17____ Puppies that are well-socialized usually become well-adjusted (适应性好的) adults. Many behavior concerns in dogs can come from a lack of proper early socialization, like fear and aggression (攻击). It’s important to get your puppy used to a variety of people, animals, places, and sights so he will not react poorly to them as an adult. House training This is one of the first things you will work on with your new puppy. ____18____ Feed him at similar times each day. Take him outside to the potty (便盆) every time he eats, drinks, or wakes up from sleep. Prevent behavior problems Start off on the right foot by providing your puppy with lots of interesting toys, exercise, and training. A puppy left to find his own source of entertainment is more likely to behave inappropriately (不恰当地). You can also use basic obedience commands (服从命令) to prevent common dog behavior problems. ____19____ By teaching your puppy appropriate behavior, you can prevent many common behavior problems. Positive reinforcement (强化) During training, puppies respond better to positive reinforcement than punishment (惩罚). Punishment may stop unwanted behavior, but it does not tell the puppy what you want him to actually do. It may even lead to behavior issues like fear or aggression. Positive reinforcement makes your puppy want to do more of the things you want him to do. Ignore or redirect your puppy when he misbehaves and reward good behavior. ____20____ A. Soon, your puppy will be offering good behavior. B. Proper training is one of the most important of these. C. Your training will be more effective if you’re all having fun. D.

B Some people live and love more in twelve years than others do in 100. Jessie Joy Rees was one of those people. Jessie was an energetic, athletic girl who always had a smile on her face until she was diagnosed (诊断) with a shocking disease. Doctors estimated that she had just 1% chance of survival and less than a year to live. With no other treatment options, her family entered Jessie for a clinical trial (临床试验). For weeks she underwent 30 rounds of radiotherapy (放射治疗). Amazingly, the pain and uncertainty never lessened her shine, and Jessie always remained positive throughout it all. One day, she learned that many of the sick children in the hospital couldn’t go home, and decided to find a way to help reduce their stress. The next morning, Jessie’s dad, Erik Rees, found his daughter filling paper bags with stickers, toys, artwork, and other fun small things at home. Then he asked the hospital if Jessie could hand them out around the children’s cancer wards (病房). They said yes, as long as they replaced the paper bags with plastic jars (罐). That’s how Jessie’s JoyJars were born! “JoyJars are plastic jars stuffed with new games, toys, and activities for kids fighting cancer,” said Erik. The jars were named for Jessie, whose middle name was Joy. Sadly, Jessie lost her fight with cancer less than one year after her diagnosis, but she managed to make over 3,000 jars while fighting cancer. Although Jessie’s gone, her family has continued her work, starting a non-profit organization called NEGU, short for Jessie’s personal motto (座右铭): “Never ever give up.” So far, more than400,000 JoyJars have been delivered to children with cancer. It’s the Rees family’s way to honor their daughter’s kindness. In 2023, NASCAR team Spire Motorsports announced they were going to provide economic support for NEGU for the year.

According to the World Health Organization, mosquitoes cause over 700,000 deaths every year. But there is new hope in the battle between humans and mosquitoes. Scientists at Auburn University may have found the secret to stopping mosquitoes from spreading diseases. “We have created a type of fabric (织物) that could prevent mosquito bites,” says John Beckmann, who led the study. Beckmann remembered a camping trip during which he had almost been eaten alive by mosquitoes despite wearing a long-sleeved shirt. “People often say, ‘Wear long sleeves,’” said Beckmann. “But long sleeves don’t block mosquitoes.” While some companies are producing clothes that they say are bite-proof (防叮咬的), the clothes contain some harmful chemicals or are made of thick fabrics that are too hot to wear and are too easy for mosquitoes to overcome. That’s because there are holes in the makeup of their fabrics that mosquitoes and other biting insects can get through. The key was to discover a fabric that removed these gaps and was still cool enough to wear in hot weather. “That is the reason why this project is not as easy as people think,” Beckmann said. The team experimented by using a computer numerical control knitting (编织) machine that could be programmed with different patterns until they found a bite-proof one. But the researchers are still not satisfied and will be spending the next year perfecting the comfort aspect of the material and eventually creating a clothing line. The hope is that finally any type of fabric can be knitted into the lab’s pattern so that all kinds of clothing companies from baby clothing producers to dress designers could create bite-proof clothing. 8. What happened to Beckmann during his camping trip? A. He was badly bitten by mosquitoes. B. He discovered a new kind of mosquito. C. He felt unbearably hot in long-sleeved clothes. D. He mastered some skills in dealing with mosquitoes. 9. What is paragraph 3 mainly about? A. The popularity of bite-proof clothing. B. Disadvantages of existing bite-proof clothing. C. Advancement in bite-proof clothing technology. D. Comparisons between different types of bite-proof clothes. 10. What do the researchers plan to do next? A. Work with different clothing companies. B. Improve the material’s comfort. C. Sell their fabric worldwide. D. Produce baby clothes. 11. What is the best title for the text? A. Mosquitoes: the silent killers B. The battle against mosquitoes C. A step towards a bite-free future D. Proven ways to prevent mosquito bites D The global food waste conundrum continues to grow, but smart tech developed in Australia could solve it significantly, one farm at a time. A new healthy vegetable snack draws on innovation from Australia’s national science agency CSIRO together with start-up Nutri V. The new Nutri V Goodies snacks contain vegetables, which can’t be sold and would otherwise have gone to waste, often as landfill (填埋的垃圾) or animal feed. Raquel Said, CEO of Nutri V, explained that the company was born from a farming business with enthusiasm for innovation and sustainability (可持续性)。 “Part of growing vegetables can involve ending up with tonnes that don’t meet standards or there’s an oversupply, yet they’re all still perfectly nutritious,” Ms Said explained, “We wanted to create a business to upcycle that waste into a sustainable yet delicious solution, which is what we’ve done with Nutri V Goodies,” she said. “We think they will help Australians increase their vegetable consumption (摄入、消耗) while supporting farmers in reducing waste.” Nutri V Goodies, which are a convenient option for people to stay on top of their vegetable intake (摄入量), have two servings of vegetables in every pack and have a higher vegetable content and health star rating than other snack foods. CSIRO’s director of Agriculture and Food Dr Michael Robertson said, vegetable-rich food innovation such as Nutri V Goodies helps farmers add real value to their businesses, while supporting sustainability in the agrifood section. “With CSIRO’s expert knowledge and our world-class food research facilities, we can support the creation of healthy concept products and in the case of Nutri V, developing an innovative process can take it to market,” Dr Robertson said. “CSIRO working together with Nutri V at the forefront of agricultural production is a good example of how research can work with industry.” 12. What does the underlined word “conundrum” in paragraph I probably mean? A. Recovery. B. Problem. C. Reduction. D. Collection. 13. What can we learn from Raquel Said’s words about Nutri V Goodies? A. They need big improvement in nutrition. B. They hardly meet standards on the market. C. They help increase people’s vegetable intake D. They are more delicious than other snack foods. 14. What was Dr Michael Robertson’s attitude to the partnership between CSIRO and Nutri V? A. Doubtful. B. Intolerant. C. Uninterested. D. Supportive. 15. What would be the best title for the text? A. CSIRO is dealing with food waste with snacks B. Nutri V supports the creation of healthy products C. Vegetable consumption wins popularity in Australia D. The agrifood section has become sustainable recently 第二节 七选五(共5小题;每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) Puppies (小狗) are a lot of fun, but they also take a lot of work.
