Disturbed by the environmental damage, he was inspired to create The Garbage Lot, a heavy platform with a locking mechanism to keep trash cans upright (直立). His invention won the “Industry Innovator Award” at Ohio’s Invention Convention and later earned first place at the national level. Damian’s path as an inventor was shaped by his participation in the Ohio Invention League (the OIL), a nonprofit that provides free STEM education to K-12 students. Through hands-on invention competitions, he learned to “sell” his invention to judges. Writing and crafting his presentation helped sharpen his communication skills and practice entrepreneurship (创业), which are crucial for the future employment market where students will likely work in jobs that have not yet been created. Damian’s teachers, particularly Sarah Priebe, admired his strong work ethic. She recalled Damian’s exceptional oral presentation in eighth grade, “You can tell he put a lot of time and practice into it. Many gifted students don’t seem to need to work as hard to excel at school, but he is always engaged and ready.” Elena and Zavier, Damian’s siblings, followed in his footsteps, creating their own inventions and receiving awards. Elena, 14, developed a device to remove bad smells from washing machines, while 11-year-old Zavier invented a drone for people with limited mobility. Their father, Matt, shared that watching the invention process take place had changed how he addressed issues in his vinyl records (黑胶唱片) business. 4. What drove Damian to create The Garbage Lot? A. His attention to neighborhood safety. B. The mess caused by fallen trash cans. C. His interest in environmental science. D. The need for an invention competition. 5. How does the OIL program prepare students for future jobs? A. By providing paid STEM education. B. By creating jobs that haven’t existed. C. By promoting entrepreneurial thinking. D. By selling invention presentation skills. 6. What quality of Damian impressed his teachers? A. Commitment. B. Intelligence. C. Curiosity. D. Leadership. 7. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. A Family of Inventors. B. From Inspired to Inspiring. C. Solving Problems with OIL. D. Turning Trash into Treasure. 【答案】4. B 5. C 6. A 7. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。主要讲述了12岁的Damian Earley因受到社区环境问题的启发而发明了The Garbage Lot，并在Ohio Invention League (OIL)的支持下取得成功，他的家人也深受启发的故事。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。 根据第一段中“In 2018, 12-year-old Damian Earley was walking his dog when he noticed garbage cans knocked over by the wind, spilling trash onto the streets of his Columbus neighborhood. Disturbed by the environmental damage, he was inspired to create The Garbage Lot, a heavy platform with a locking mechanism to keep trash cans upright (直立). ( 2018年，12岁的Damian Earley在遛狗时注意到垃圾桶被风吹倒，垃圾散落在哥伦布附近的街道上。受到环境破坏的困扰，他受到启发，创造了The Garbage Lot，这是一个带有锁定机制的沉重平台，可以保持垃圾桶直立。)”可知，Damian发明The Garbage Lot的原因是受到倒下垃圾桶导致街道混乱的触动。故选B。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中“Through hands-on invention competitions, he learned to “sell” his invention to judges. Writing and crafting his presentation helped sharpen his communication skills and practice entrepreneurship (创业), which are crucial for the future employment market where students will likely work in jobs that have not yet been created. (通过亲身参与发明竞赛，他学会了向评委“推销”自己的发明。撰写和精心制作他的演讲有助于提高他的沟通能力和实践创业精神，这对未来的就业市场至关重要，因为学生们可能会从事尚未创造的工作。)”可知，Ohio Invention League通过培养学生的沟通能力和创业思维，帮助他们为未来可能出现的工作做好准备。故选C。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中““You can tell he put a lot of time and practice into it. Many gifted students don’t seem to need to work as hard to excel at school, but he is always engaged and ready.” (“你可以看出他花了很多时间和练习。许多有天赋的学生似乎不需要像他那样努力学习就能在学校脱颖而出，但他总是很投入，随时准备好。”)”可知，Damian令老师印象深刻的品质是他对工作的专注和投入。故选A。 【7题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其最后一段“Elena and Zavier, Damian’s siblings, followed in his footsteps, creating their own inventions and receiving awards. Elena, 14, developed a device to remove bad smells from washing machines, while 11-year-old Zavier invented a drone for people with limited mobility. Their father, Matt, shared that watching the invention process take place had changed how he addressed issues in his vinyl records (黑胶唱片) business. (Damian的兄弟姐妹Elena和Zavier跟随他的脚步，创造了自己的发明并获得了奖项。14岁的Elena发明了一种去除洗衣机异味的装置，11岁的Zavier为行动不便的人发明了一种无人机。他们的父亲Matt分享说，目睹发明过程的发生改变了他处理黑胶唱片业务问题的方式。)”可知，文章主要讲的是12岁的Damian Earley因受到社区环境问题的启发而发明了The Garbage Lot，并在Ohio Invention League (OIL)的支持下取得成功，他的家人也深受启发的故事。故文章最适合的标题是“从受到启发到影响他人”。故选B项。 C Many of you may have used Siri, a voice assistant of US tech company Apple. You only have to say “hey Siri” and it will answer to your command. However, we may be sacrificing our privacy to enjoy this convenience. According to a recent report by the Guardian, Siri can be accidentally triggered and start recording private conversations, such as discussions between doctors and patients Some of these recordings are then given to workers outside the company to review. Apple claimed the data was used to help Siri improve, but users were not informed of this measure in the first place. Apple’s Siri is not the only voice assistant to come under fire. In 2018, Alexa, a voice assistant developed by US tech company Amazon, recorded a private conversation between a couple and sent it to a stranger without their permission. These issues deepened concerns that tech companies are infringing (侵犯) users’ rights of privacy. Many people have long feared that tech companies are listening and collecting data from private conversations, reported Forbes. Using this data, third party companies could then paint an accurate picture of users’ habits and preferences in order to serve them more targeted advertisements, or even worse, sell this private data. Despite this risk, the popularity of voice assistant seems to be unstoppable. In the near future, everything from your lighting to your air-conditioning to your refrigerator, your coffee maker, and even your toilet could be wired to a system controlled by voice, commented The Atlantic. Colin Horgan wrote on the blog site Medium that he believed people’s daily lives will soon become a source of data. “The sounds of our homes, the symphony of life laughing, crying, talking, shouting, sitting in silence-will no longer be considered memories, but data,” he wrote. To deal with the issue, Blake Morgan, reporter for The Atlantic, believed that the answer is transparency. “All companies need to have messaging ready to explain to customers what they do with private data,” she wrote on The Atlantic. 8. What can be inferred from Paragraph 2? A. There are some fire-proof voice assistants. B. Many voice assistants are. being developed. C. Some voice assistants are also being criticized besides Siri. D. Data collected by Siri is used for better user experience. 9. What seems to be people’s biggest concern about voice assistants? A. Serving them targeted advertisements. B. Sending their message. C Invading their privacy. D. Making no improvements. 10. What should companies do in response according to the last paragraph? A. Stop collecting data through voice assistant. B. Explain their use of the data to customers. C. Make their data more transparent. D. Collect data to better keep memories. 11. What is the author’s purpose in writing the text? A. To show visions of a data world in the future. B. To criticize companies’ invading customers’ privacy. C. To inform people of what tech companies are really up to. D. To draw attention to the privacy issue concerning voice assistants. 【答案】8. C 9. C 10. B 11. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。主要说明了语音助手会在用户不知情的情况下记录私人对话，从而导致用户隐私被侵犯的问题。就此问题不同人士发表了自己的看法。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“Apple’s Siri is not the only voice assistant to come under fire. In 2018, Alexa, a voice assistant developed by US tech company Amazon, recorded a private conversation between a couple and sent it to a stranger without their permission.(苹果的Siri并不是唯一一个受到抨击的语音助手。2018年，美国科技公司亚马逊开发的语音助手Alexa录制了一对夫妇的私人对话，并在未经他们允许的情况下将其发送给了陌生人)”可推知，除了Siri之外，一些语音助手也受到了批评。故选C。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中“These issues deepened concerns that tech companies are infringing (侵犯) users’ rights of privacy. Many people have long feared that tech companies are listening and collecting data from private conversations, reported Forbes. (这些问题加深了人们对科技公司侵犯用户隐私权的担忧。据《福布斯》报道，许多人一直担心科技公司正在监听和收集私人谈话数据)”可知，侵犯人们的隐私似乎是人们对语音助手最大的担忧。故选C。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“All companies need to have messaging ready to explain to customers what they do with private data(所有公司都需要准备好消息传递，以便向客户解释他们如何处理私人数据)可知，Blake Morgan表示，企业应该向客户解释它们如何使用这些数据来解决问题。故选B。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中“According to a recent report by the Guardian, Siri can be accidentally triggered and start recording private conversations, such as discussions between doctors and patients Some of these recordings are then given to workers outside the company to review.(根据《卫报》最近的一篇报道，Siri可能会被意外触发，并开始录制私人对话，比如医生和病人之间的讨论，其中一些录音会被交给公司外的工作人员进行审查)”以及文章主要讨论了语音助手带来的隐私问题，可推知文章的目的是为了引起大家对于语音助手带来的隐私问题的注意。故选D。 D The Notre Dame (巴黎圣母院) fire has been put out, but its spire (尖顶) and a large portion of its wooden roof have been damaged. The terrible destruction causes a sudden sharp pain to people around the world. “What a pity that we cannot see the damaged parts of the wonder anymore.” But the good news is that there is at least one way of seeing them, namely through a video game called Assassin’s Creed: Unity. In this game, the player can travel to one city after another and enter the buildings exactly like what they are in reality, and see Notre Dame as it was before the fire. Further, with virtual reality technology, which is already quite mature, one can even look around the undamaged Notre Dame as if it is still there. Maybe digital technology could help to better protect architectural cultural heritage. The idea of making digital models of ancient buildings to save their data dates back to the 1990s and the necessary technology has continued to advance since then. By scanning the ancient buildings with lasers, building 3D models with multiple images, as well as measuring everything precisely, engineers can make a copy as accurate as the real one. As computers and smartphones are hugely popular, the digital model has great useful value. First, it allows tourists to feel the cultural relics without touching them. The virtual tour of Dunhuang Grottoes in Gansu Province is a good example of this as tourists can view the paintings without standing near them. Furthermore, it can make the digitized cultural relics more famous by spreading awareness about them via the Internet. In 2000, a virtual tour of the Great Wall became very popular at the Hannover World Expo, which increased the number of foreign tourists visiting the site in the following years. Above all, it preserves all the information of the cultural relics. Of course, however precise a model is, it is not the original. Maybe we will have better technologies in the future, but the digital technology offers a practical way to preserve architectural cultural heritage at the moment. 12. What can we see about Notre Dame in the game? A. The damaged Notre Dame. B. Its wooden shape. C. The big fire. D. Its original look. 13. What will engineers do to create a digital copy of the ancient buildings? A. Build 3D models of full size. B. Scan the photos of the buildings C. Measure all the parts exactly. D. Improve the technology needed. 14. How does the author prove the digital copy has vital practical importance? A. By giving examples. B. By classification. C. By comparison. D. By listing data. 15. What is the author’s attitude towards the application of the technology? A. Delighted B. Supportive C. Doubtful D. Conservative 【答案】12. D 13. C 14. A 15. B 【解析】 【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章讲述了，运用现代技术的新手段——数字副本——保护建筑文化遗迹，并说明了这种技术的优点。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。由第二段中的“In this game, the player can travel to one city after another and enter the buildings exactly like what they are in reality, and see Notre Dame as it was before the fire.”（在这个游戏中，玩家可以一个接一个地去一个城市，进入建筑，就像他们在现实中一样，看到圣母院在火灾前的样子。），可知在游戏中可看到巴黎圣母院原来的样子。故选D项。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。由第三段中的“By scanning the ancient buildings with lasers, building 3D models with multiple images, as well as measuring everything precisely, engineers can make a copy as accurate as the real one.”（通过用激光扫描古建筑，用多幅图像建立三维模型，以及精确测量一切，工程师可以制作出与真实一样精确的副本。），可知工程师会精确测量所有古代建筑副本的零部件来创造古建筑的数字副本。故选C项。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。由第四段中“The virtual tour of Dunhuang Grottoes in Gansu Province is a good example of this as tourists can view the paintings without standing near them. Furthermore, it can make the digitized cultural relics more famous by spreading awareness about them via the Internet. In 2000, a virtual tour of the Great Wall became very popular at the Hannover World Expo, which increased the number of foreign tourists visiting the site in the following years. Above all, it preserves all the information of the cultural relics.”（甘肃敦煌石窟的虚拟旅游就是一个很好的例子，因为游客不用站在附近就能看到这些画。通过网络传播对数字化文物的认识，可以使数字化文物更加出名。2000年，在汉诺威世博会上，虚拟的长城之旅变得非常受欢迎，在接下来的几年里，参观长城的外国游客增加了。最重要的是，它保存了文物的所有信息。），可知作者是举了敦煌和长城两个例子，说明数字副本的重要意义。故选A项。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。由最后一段中的“Maybe we will have better technologies in the future, but the digital technology offers a practical way to preserve architectural cultural heritage at the moment.”（也许我们将来会有更好的技术，但数字技术提供了一种切实可行的方式来保存建筑文化遗产。），可推断出作者是持有支持的态度。故选B项。 【点睛】推理判断题不仅要求考生读懂文章中的每个句子的意思还要推理它们之间的关系，结合自己的生活常识和经验，再通过逻辑推理和判断，理解文章的言外之意，从而揭示文章的深层涵义。推理判断题的答案不可能在文章中直接找到，因此推理时我们务必要忠于原文，在文章中寻找并确定可推论的依据，即：已知部分——推论的前提，从中推测出未知部分——推理的结论，切忌妄加评论，把自己的观点当成作者的观点。如在第4小题中，第三段最后一段中的“Maybe we will have better technologies in the future, but the digital technology offers a practical way to preserve architectural cultural heritage at the moment.”，是已知部分，通过结合原文进行合理地逻辑判断，可推断出作者是持有支持的态度。故选B项。 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。 Take it from nature Scientists are borrowing ideas from nature to solve tough design problems. Japan’s Shinkansen bullet train sped along the rails at lightning speed. ____16____ To solve the train’s noise trouble, Eiji Nakatsu, an engineer, looked to the kingfisher bird. Nakatsu noticed that the kingfisher could dive through the air and into the water with barely a splash (落水声). The bird could do this because of its streamlined beak. Nakatsu suggested the train’s nose be modeled after the beak. And then the loud noise was gone. ____17____ “If you want the answer to a tough question, ask nature first. You’ll find in the natural world an unbelievable library of solutions,” Nakatsu said. The science behind nature-inspired inventions is called biomimicry. ____18____ Since she cofounded the Biomimicry Institute in 2006, she has worked with hundreds of companies to develop products based on nature. Scientist Brent Constantz was inspired by coral reefs (珊瑚礁) to create concrete that’s better for the planet. Concrete, made up of cement and sand, is a top building material. The problem? Making one ton of concrete produces one ton of CO2. Constantz decided to borrow an idea from corals. When the tiny animals die, their bones form the foundation for colorful reefs. Saltwater mixes with CO2 to make these formations. To make his concrete, CO2 from power plants is mixed with saltwater. ____19____ “This is a huge win for the planet,” says Constantz. The possibilities for copying nature are limitless. ____20____ That amounts to thousands of lessons lost. “The more we learn from nature, the more we’ll want to protect it,” says Constantz. A. But it makes a loud noise. B. It is used in bridges and miles upon miles of highways. C. The process actually removes polluting CO2 from the air. D. We have to fall in love with all these wonderful creatures. E. Trouble is, thousands of animals and plants die out each year. F. Scientist Janine Benyus is a longtime supporter of this branch of science. G. What’s more, the new train travels 10% faster and uses 15% less electricity. 【答案】16. A 17. G 18. F 19. C 20. E 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。主要讲述了人类工程师通过模仿大自然的鬼斧神工来解决设计中的问题。 【16题详解】 根据前文“Japan’s Shinkansen bullet train sped along the rails at lightning speed.(日本新干线子弹列车以闪电般的速度沿着轨迹行驶。)”和后文“To solve the train's noise trouble, Eiji Nakatsu, an engineer, looked to the kingfisher bird.(为了解决火车的噪音问题，工程师中津英二向翠鸟求助。)”说明子弹头列车虽然速度很快，但存在噪音问题。空处承接上文，与前文构成转折关系；同时承接下文，呼应火车的噪音问题。A选项“但是它发出很大的噪音。”符合语境。故选A项。 【17题详解】 根据前文“Nakatsu suggested the train’s nose be modeled after the beak. And then the loud noise was gone.(中津建议以鸟喙为模型设计火车的鼻子。巨大的噪音也随之消失。)”和后文“If you want the answer to a tough question, ask nature first. You’ll find in the natural world an unbelievable library of solutions(如果你想要一个难题的答案，先问问大自然。你会发现在自然界存在着一个令人难以置信的解决方案库。)”可知，以翠鸟的鸟喙为设计模型，能解决火车的噪音问题。G选项“更重要的是，新火车运行速度提高了10%，用电量减少了15%。”承接上文，说明以翠鸟的鸟喙为设计模型的新列车带来的额外优势，符合语境。故选G项。 【18题详解】 根据前文“The science behind nature-inspired inventions is called biomimicry.(受自然启发的发明背后的科学被称为仿生学。)”和后文“Since she cofounded the Biomimicry Institute in 2006, she has worked with hundreds of companies to develop products based on nature.(自2006年与人共同创立Biomimicry研究所以来，她已经与数百家公司合作开发基于自然的产品。)”可知，仿生学是一种以自然为灵感的科学，并且有一位女性在从事仿生学相关的研究和开发。F选项中的this branch of science与前文的biomimicry呼应，Janine Benyus也引出了下文的she。所以F选项“科学家Janine Benyus是这一科学分支的长期支持者。”符合语境。故选F项。 【19题详解】 根据前文“Constantz decided to borrow an idea from corals. When the tiny animals die, their bones form the foundation for colorful reefs. Saltwater mixes with CO2 to make these formations. To make his concrete, CO2 from power plants is mixed with saltwater.(Constantz决定借用珊瑚的一个想法。当这些小动物死后，它们的骨头就形成了彩色珊瑚礁的基础。盐水与二氧化碳混合形成这些岩层。为了制作他的混凝土，将来自发电厂的二氧化碳与盐水混合。)”可知，Constantz从珊瑚礁中获取灵感，利用发电厂产生的二氧化碳与盐水混合，制作混凝土；C选项“这个过程实际上会去除空气中含有污染性质的二氧化碳。”承接上文，阐述利用发电厂产生的二氧化碳制作混凝土带来的益处：去除空气中含有污染性质的二氧化碳，选项中的“removes polluting CO2 from the air”与前文中“CO2 from power plants”呼应，C选项符合语境。故选C项。 【20题详解】 根据后文“That amounts to thousands of lessons lost. ‘The more we learn from nature, the more we’ll want to protect it,’ says Constantz.(这相当于损失了数千个教训。康斯坦茨说：‘我们从大自然中学到的越多，我们就越想要保护它。’)”可知，人类损失了数千个教训，而又提到人类要保护自然，说明自然界收到了伤害才导致人类损失了许多可以借鉴的灵感。E选项“问题在于，每年有成千上万的动植物灭绝。”符合语境。故选E项。 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.

Her elder sister Serena was now dancing at a college. Though Kelly’s mom always wanted her to follow in her sister’s footsteps and Kelly herself was good at ballet, her love for ballet had faded years before, and she was eager for a new challenge. One day at school, as Kelly left the dance studio, she walked past the gym, fascinated by boxers training inside the boxing ring (拳击赛场). She was deeply impressed by how hard they hit and how fast they moved. In fact, she’d long been attracted to boxing. She pulled a piece of paper from her backpack. On the familiar Oakwood High School Club Sign-up Sheet was the phrase: BOXING CLUB TRYOUT (选拔). That was what Kelly really wanted to do. She knew her mom had high expectations for her when it came to ballet. Tired of trying to keep with her sister, Kelly was ready to carve (开辟) her own path. The next day, she gathered her courage and told Serena about her new passion. At first, Serena didn’t understand and thought she was just joking. But when she saw Kelly was serious, she replied, “You know Mom wants you to be a ballet dancer, right? Besides, boxing is only for boys, and you’re so good at ballet. Lean into your strength, Kelly.” “But this is where I want to put my strength,” Kelly insisted, “and what exactly does ‘only for boys’ mean, anyway? Boxing is a sport for everyone!” Gradually, touched by her determination and passion, Serena began to understand and support her. Kelly could feel it. Her sister was going to respect her decision, no matter what. But that was nothing compared to the preparations for the tryout, where she was required to show her footwork (步法) and punching (击打) abilities with other candidates (候选人). Boxing didn’t come natural to Kelly, but she had made úp her mind to stick with her choice. 注意： 1．续写词数应为150左右； 2．请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Para l: Then Kelly began her training for the tryout keeping it a secret from her mom. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Para 2: The following Monday, results of the boxing tryout were posted. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 Para l: Then Kelly began her training, keeping it a secret from her mom. Every day after school, Kelly dashed to the boxing gym, occupying herself with the intense training. Even when she was made fun of by boys in the gym, she bit her lip tightly and continued her training. Finally, the tryout came. Extremely nervous though, she stepped into the boxing ring, moved fast and punched hard to the surprise of other candidates. After the tryout, Kelly left the gym confidently, knowing she did her best. Para 2: The following Monday, results of the boxing tryout were posted. To her delight, Kelly found her name on the list. At dinner that day, Kelly gathered her courage and said to her mom, “I'm sorry, Mom. I've made the boxing team and I'm ready to carve my own path.” At first, a flicker of disbelief and shock crossed her mom's face, but after a long, heart-to-heart talk, she gave Kelly a bear hug and whispered softly, “I'm so proud of you for being yourself. ” 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了Kelly的家人希望她像姐姐一样发挥自己的特长学习芭蕾，但是她自己却爱好上拳击。开始受到家人的反对，但很快得到姐姐的支持，然后偷偷参加拳击选拔，坚持自己的选择。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“然后Kelly开始了选拔赛的训练，并对她妈妈保密。”可知，第一段可描写Kelly瞒着妈妈接受拳击训练并参加选拔赛的过程。 ②由第二段首句内容 “接下来的星期一，拳击选拔赛的结果出来了。”可知，第二段可描写Kelly用选拔赛的结果说服妈妈，得到妈妈的同意。 2.续写线索：坚持学习拳击——练习拳击——参加选拔赛——查看结果被选中——说服妈妈——妈妈同意 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①.急速去：dash to/rush to ②.嘲笑：make fun of/laugh at ③.感到骄傲：be proud of/take a pride in 情绪类 ①.紧张：showing one’s nervousness / nervous ②.自信地：confidently / with confidence 【点睛】[高分句型1].

Kimpton Alma Hotel Kimpton’s Alma has decoration inspired by the city: a beachy colour and street culture artwork. Among its three restaurants (the rooftop Leave of Absence bar is due to re-open spring 2024), the Desmond draws locals for chef Jason Neroni’s winning cooking creations, while the casual Café is a good choice for steak fries. In addition, pets are treated almost as well as their human companions in this hotel, which attracts many pet-lovers.

Disturbed by the environmental damage, he was inspired to create The Garbage Lot, a heavy platform with a locking mechanism to keep trash cans upright (直立). His invention won the “Industry Innovator Award” at Ohio’s Invention Convention and later earned first place at the national level. Damian’s path as an inventor was shaped by his participation in the Ohio Invention League (the OIL), a nonprofit that provides free STEM education to K-12 students. Through hands-on invention competitions, he learned to “sell” his invention to judges. Writing and crafting his presentation helped sharpen his communication skills and practice entrepreneurship (创业), which are crucial for the future employment market where students will likely work in jobs that have not yet been created. Damian’s teachers, particularly Sarah Priebe, admired his strong work ethic. She recalled Damian’s exceptional oral presentation in eighth grade, “You can tell he put a lot of time and practice into it. Many gifted students don’t seem to need to work as hard to excel at school, but he is always engaged and ready.” Elena and Zavier, Damian’s siblings, followed in his footsteps, creating their own inventions and receiving awards. Elena, 14, developed a device to remove bad smells from washing machines, while 11-year-old Zavier invented a drone for people with limited mobility. Their father, Matt, shared that watching the invention process take place had changed how he addressed issues in his vinyl records (黑胶唱片) business. 4. What drove Damian to create The Garbage Lot? A. His attention to neighborhood safety. B. The mess caused by fallen trash cans. C. His interest in environmental science. D The need for an invention competition. 5. How does the OIL program prepare students for future jobs? A. By providing paid STEM education. B. By creating jobs that haven’t existed. C. By promoting entrepreneurial thinking. D. By selling invention presentation skills. 6. What quality of Damian impressed his teachers? A Commitment. B. Intelligence. C. Curiosity. D. Leadership. 7. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. A Family of Inventors. B. From Inspired to Inspiring. C. Solving Problems with OIL. D. Turning Trash into Treasure. C Many of you may have used Siri, a voice assistant of US tech company Apple. You only have to say “hey Siri” and it will answer to your command. However, we may be sacrificing our privacy to enjoy this convenience. According to a recent report by the Guardian, Siri can be accidentally triggered and start recording private conversations, such as discussions between doctors and patients Some of these recordings are then given to workers outside the company to review. Apple claimed the data was used to help Siri improve, but users were not informed of this measure in the first place. Apple’s Siri is not the only voice assistant to come under fire. In 2018, Alexa, a voice assistant developed by US tech company Amazon, recorded a private conversation between a couple and sent it to a stranger without their permission. These issues deepened concerns that tech companies are infringing (侵犯) users’ rights of privacy. Many people have long feared that tech companies are listening and collecting data from private conversations, reported Forbes. Using this data, third party companies could then paint an accurate picture of users’ habits and preferences in order to serve them more targeted advertisements, or even worse, sell this private data. Despite this risk, the popularity of voice assistant seems to be unstoppable. In the near future, everything from your lighting to your air-conditioning to your refrigerator, your coffee maker, and even your toilet could be wired to a system controlled by voice, commented The Atlantic. Colin Horgan wrote on the blog site Medium that he believed people’s daily lives will soon become a source of data. “The sounds of our homes the symphony of life laughing, crying, talking, shouting, sitting in silence-will no longer be considered memories, but data,” he wrote. To deal with the issue, Blake Morgan, reporter for The Atlantic, believed that the answer is transparency. “All companies need to have messaging ready to explain to customers what they do with private data,” she wrote on The Atlantic. 8. What can be inferred from Paragraph 2? A. There are some fire-proof voice assistants. B. Many voice assistants are. being developed. C. Some voice assistants are also being criticized besides Siri. D. Data collected by Siri is used for better user experience. 9. What seems to be people’s biggest concern about voice assistants? A. Serving them targeted advertisements. B. Sending their message. C. Invading their privacy. D. Making no improvements. 10. What should companies do in response according to the last paragraph? A. Stop collecting data through voice assistant. B. Explain their use of the data to customers. C. Make their data more transparent. D. Collect data to better keep memories. 11. What is the author’s purpose in writing the text? A. To show visions of a data world in the future. B. To criticize companies’ invading customers’ privacy. C. To inform people of what tech companies are really up to. D. To draw attention to the privacy issue concerning voice assistants. D The Notre Dame (巴黎圣母院) fire has been put out, but its spire (尖顶) and a large portion of its wooden roof have been damaged. The terrible destruction causes a sudden sharp pain to people around the world. “What a pity that we cannot see the damaged parts of the wonder anymore.” But the good news is that there is at least one way of seeing them, namely through a video game called Assassin’s Creed: Unity. In this game, the player can travel to one city after another and enter the buildings exactly like what they are in reality, and see Notre Dame as it was before the fire. Further, with virtual reality technology, which is already quite mature, one can even look around the undamaged Notre Dame as if it is still there. Maybe digital technology could help to better protect architectural cultural heritage. The idea of making digital models of ancient buildings to save their data dates back to the 1990s and the necessary technology has continued to advance since then. By scanning the ancient buildings with lasers, building 3D models with multiple images, as well as measuring everything precisely, engineers can make a copy as accurate as the real one. As computers and smartphones are hugely popular, the digital model has great useful value. First, it allows tourists to feel the cultural relics without touching them. The virtual tour of Dunhuang Grottoes in Gansu Province is a good example of this as tourists can view the paintings without standing near them. Furthermore, it can make the digitized cultural relics more famous by spreading awareness about them via the Internet. In 2000, a virtual tour of the Great Wall became very popular at the Hannover World Expo, which increased the number of foreign tourists visiting the site in the following years. Above all, it preserves all the information of the cultural relics. Of course, however precise a model is, it is not the original. Maybe we will have better technologies in the future, but the digital technology offers a practical way to preserve architectural cultural heritage at the moment. 12. What can we see about Notre Dame in the game? A The damaged Notre Dame. B. Its wooden shape. C. The big fire. D. Its original look. 13.

Japan’s Shinkansen bullet train sped along the rails at lightning speed. ____16____ To solve the train’s noise trouble, Eiji Nakatsu, an engineer, looked to the kingfisher bird. Nakatsu noticed that the kingfisher could dive through the air and into the water with barely a splash (落水声). The bird could do this because of its streamlined beak. Nakatsu suggested the train’s nose be modeled after the beak. And then the loud noise was gone. ____17____ “If you want the answer to a tough question, ask nature first. You’ll find in the natural world an unbelievable library of solutions,” Nakatsu said. The science behind nature-inspired inventions is called biomimicry. ____18____ Since she cofounded the Biomimicry Institute in 2006, she has worked with hundreds of companies to develop products based on nature. Scientist Brent Constantz was inspired by coral reefs (珊瑚礁) to create concrete that’s better for the planet. Concrete, made up of cement and sand, is a top building material. The problem? Making one ton of concrete produces one ton of CO2. Constantz decided to borrow an idea from corals. When the tiny animals die, their bones form the foundation for colorful reefs. Saltwater mixes with CO2 to make these formations. To make his concrete, CO2 from power plants is mixed with saltwater. ____19____ “This is a huge win for the planet,” says Constantz. The possibilities for copying nature are limitless. ____20____ That amounts to thousands of lessons lost. “The more we learn from nature, the more we’ll want to protect it,” says Constantz. A. But it makes a loud noise. B. It is used in bridges and miles upon miles of highways. C. The process actually removes polluting CO2 from the air. D. We have to fall in love with all these wonderful creatures. E. Trouble is, thousands of animals and plants die out each year. F. Scientist Janine Benyus is a longtime supporter of this branch of science. G. What’s more, the new train travels 10% faster and uses 15% less electricity. 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.

Her elder sister Serena was now dancing at a college. Though Kelly’s mom always wanted her to follow in her sister’s footsteps and Kelly herself was good at ballet, her love for ballet had faded years before, and she was eager for a new challenge. One day at school, as Kelly left the dance studio, she walked past the gym, fascinated by boxers training inside the boxing ring (拳击赛场). She was deeply impressed by how hard they hit and how fast they moved. In fact, she’d long been attracted to boxing. She pulled a piece of paper from her backpack. On the familiar Oakwood High School Club Sign-up Sheet was the phrase: BOXING CLUB TRYOUT (选拔). That was what Kelly really wanted to do. She knew her mom had high expectations for her when it came to ballet. Tired of trying to keep with her sister, Kelly was ready to carve (开辟) her own path. The next day, she gathered her courage and told Serena about her new passion. At first, Serena didn’t understand and thought she was just joking. But when she saw Kelly was serious, she replied, “You know Mom wants you to be a ballet dancer, right? Besides, boxing is only for boys, and you’re so good at ballet. Lean into your strength, Kelly.” “But this is where I want to put my strength,” Kelly insisted, “and what exactly does ‘only for boys’ mean, anyway? Boxing is a sport for everyone!” Gradually, touched by her determination and passion, Serena began to understand and support her. Kelly could feel it. Her sister was going to respect her decision, no matter what. But that was nothing compared to the preparations for the tryout, where she was required to show her footwork (步法) and punching (击打) abilities with other candidates (候选人). Boxing didn’t come natural to Kelly, but she had made úp her mind to stick with her choice. 注意： 1．续写词数应为150左右； 2．请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Para l: Then Kelly began her training for the tryout, keeping it a secret from her mom. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Para 2: The following Monday, results of the boxing tryout were posted. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
