Last year, a baby elephant in the state of Kerala in India fell into a well. Together, villagers and government officials mounted a five-hour rescue. As is evident in this video clip (片段), when the baby was reunited with the herd, one of the adult elephants turned around and raised her trunk at the rescuers. While I can’t say for sure it was a gesture of gratitude, based on what we know of elephants, I can say it’s entirely possible.
Today I’d like to borrow that trunk-raise gesture and offer grateful shout-outs about good things happening to farmed animals, who tend to get less attention than mammals like elephants and our companions like dogs and cats. I first learned about The Animal Place Food for Thought last year, a project working with nonprofit groups focused on animal and environmental causes to get animals off the menu at their events. “Farmed animals suffer greatly, and they are no different in capacities to feel joy, pain, and fear than the animals with whom we share homes,” said Patti Nyman, Food for Thought’s Campaign Manager.
Numerous organizations have supported d an animal-friendly menu in line with the campaign’s goals. The Food Futures Lab in Palo Alto, Calif, highlighted what it calls six artifacts (手工制品) from the future of food, an imaginative yet substantive way to show us what changes may be on the horizon. One of my favorite “artifacts” is the Lunchabios, a kit for kids of the future to take to school. It comes with a cheese bioreactor to culture one’s own yeast (酵母) and nutrient packets to help the cheese grow. Max Elder, research manager at the Lab said: “There’s a possible future in which over a trillion sentient lives are saved every year. That future might look like our world today, but with products like Lunchables containing food made from animal cells, not animal bodies.”
Some animal rescues are electric to watch unfold in real time, as with the baby elephant in Kerala, India. Others are slower to play out and less dramatic, but aim, nonetheless, at large-scale, caring action for billions of animals we too often forget.
24. Why is the elephant’s story mentioned in paragraph 1?
A. To display the intelligence of elephants.
B. To highlight a successful animal rescue.
C. To explain the dangers faced by elephants.
D. To show animals may feel human kindness.
25. What does The Animal Place Food for Thought focus on?
A. Advocating for animal rights. B. Promoting environmental causes.
C. Providing food for farmed animals. D. Raising concerns about farmed animals.
26. Which of the following best sums up Food Futures Lab’s contribution?
A. Cultivating animal cell-based food. B. Developing animal-friendly products.
C. Showcasing future food innovations. D. Designing food kits for future students.
27. What can be a suitable title for the text?
A. Food for Thought: A Voice for Farmed Animals.
B. Food Futures Lab: Innovations for Moral Eating.
C. Helping Farmed Animals: High-Impact Rescue.
D. Rescuing Animals in Need: Inspiring Tales of Hope.
C
The world is experiencing a loneliness epidemic. How strange! With so many new ways to be in touch with the people that we love, we can move away and still see their faces. Why is it that we’re actually getting lonelier?
The answer is that the way we stay in touch with each other is inadequate to what our brains and hearts need. Social media has changed the way that we pursue friendship. A lot of young people feel uncomfortable in real life communication, which might make them engage in a confrontation. It might feel like they have some sort of performance anxiety. More and more young people are comfortable talking to other people as long as it’s settled technologically.
There’s a neuropeptide (神经肽) in the human brain called “oxytocin.” That’s the intensely pleasurable hormone (荷尔蒙) that links us to our families, friends and loved ones. But you don’t get it over screens and even less over social media. You’ll be lonely, so you’ll be even more addicted to the social media, which makes things worse and worse. That’s the reason why we have a loneliness epidemic. We’re trying to settle our relationships with tools that don’t do a good job. Oxytocin requires two things: eye contact and touch. Those are exactly the two things that you don’t get when your relationships are settled by technology. So the best way that you can get oxytocin has to be somebody who’s a real person with you. Touch their hands and look them in the eye. Your brain needs it and longs for it. That’s how your brain’s evolved.
So a natural question that comes from all of this is: Should we have a complete ban on it in our lives? The answer to that is not necessarily. Do you use social media to figure out where you’re going to meet your friends and what they’re up to? Great, but that doesn’t take very long. You don’t need six hours on Facebook to do that. What you need is a specific period of time that you devote to actually catching up with the people you love and regular face-to-face contact with them offline.
28. What does the underlined word “confrontation” in Paragraph 2 mean?
A. Tolerance B. Resistance C. Harmony D. Cooperation
29. What is the purpose of talking of “oxytocin” in Paragraph 3?
A. To present the process of brain’s evolution.
B. To expose the harm of social media.
C. To show the importance of real human contact.
D. To draw the line between cyber-interaction and technological methods.
30. What should we do with the social media according to the author?
A. Forbid the use. B. Employ its advantages.
C. Reflect on its potential impact. D. Identify the diverse situations.
31. Which of the following best describes the author’s attitude to social media?
A. Doubtful B. Dismissive C. Objective D. Disapproving
D
Like other 3D printers, the Vulcan printer puts down layer by layer of materials to build an object. However, this printer is more than 13.7 meters wide and prints homes for people to live in. This summer, the robotic printer from the homebuilder ICON will complete the last of the 100 3D-printed houses in Wolf Ranch, a community about 48 kilometers from Austin, Texas.
ICON began printing the walls of what it says is the world’s largest 3D-printed community in November 2022. Compared to traditional homebuilding, the company says 3D printing is faster, less costly, requires fewer workers, and reduces waste. Conner Jenkins, a project leader, said, “It brings a lot of efficiency to the trade market... So, when there were maybe five different crews coming in to build a wall system, we now have one crew and one robot.”
After concrete powder, water, sand and other additives are mixed together and put into the printer, a device called a nozzle (喷嘴) releases the concrete mixture. The process looks like toothpaste being put onto a toothbrush, as the printer builds up the house layer by layer along an exact path. A four-bedroom home takes about three weeks to finish printing, with the foundation and metal roofs put in place with traditional building methods. Jenkins said the concrete walls are designed to be resistant to water, mold, insects and extreme weather. The walls also provide strong insulation (隔绝) from the heat and the materials keep the inside temperature cool even when the air conditioner is not put on high levels.
There was one other thing. The 3D-printed walls seemed to protect against a solid wireless Internet connection. Obviously these strong and thick walls keep really well-insulated in summer, but signals don’t transfer through these walls very well. To deal with this issue, an ICON spokeswoman said most Wolf Ranch homeowners use mesh Internet routers (路由器).These routers broadcast a signal from several units placed throughout a home, whereas a traditional router sends a signal from one device.
ICON, which 3D-printed its first home in Austin in 2018, hopes to one day take its technology to the Moon. NASA, as part of its Artemis Moon exploration program, has an agreement with ICON to develop a system capable of building landing pads, shelters, and other structures on the moon’s surface.
32. What is one of the advantages of the 3D printer?
A. The 3D printer is equipped with high technology.
B. The 3D printer can make homebuilding cost-effective.
C. The 3D printer promotes the rapid development of building industry.
D. The 3D printer can be resistant to water, mold, insects and extreme weather.
33. How does the 3D printer work?
A. By creating a large nozzle.
B. By printing the house layer by layer.
C. By putting the toothpaste onto a toothbrush.
D. By mixing powder, water, sand and other additives.
34. What is the reason that the homeowners use mesh Internet routers instead of traditional ones?
A. The 3D-printed walls block signals to a certain extent.
B. The inside temperature is cool.
C. Mesh Internet routers can hold up to severe weather conditions.
D. Mesh Internet routers can broadcast signals at home.
35. Why does NASA cooperate with ICON?
A. ICON’s technology revolutionizes the way we produce the world around us.
B. ICON’s 3D printers can help to meet a growing demand for housing on the moon.
C. ICON can help to develop some equipment and construction that NASA needs.
D. ICON’s 3D-printed homes can be taken to the moon.

Why is it so easy to fall asleep on the sofa?
Sleep pressure is one reason why you fall asleep on the sofa. ____37____ The longer you’ve been awake, the greater the sleep pressure is.

Why can’t I fall asleep in my own bed?
There are other reasons why falling asleep in your bed could be challenging.

B. What happens after a nap on the sofa?
C. This refers to the strength of the biological drive for sleep.

Born in 2005 in Shanghai, Chen started her sporting life as a gymnast, ____57____ her earliest memories drawn from fragments of stories shared by her parents.

67. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Jane was a grade schoolteacher. Weeks after the new school year started, one kid Cameron especially touched her heart.
Cameron had autism (自闭症), but that didn’t matter to his classmates or Jane. They all loved him just the way he was. He was energetic, optimistic, friendly, humorous, and cheerful. And he was full of wonderful stories and brought a special feeling to the class. Jane felt lucky to be a teacher of the class.
One class after completing a unit on heroes, Jane gave her class a task to draw their favorite heroes. Most kids were busy creating colorful pictures. Some were drawing people like scientists, firefighters, even their brothers, sisters and parents.
However. Cameron who sat in the back of the classroom, was having difficulty with the drawing task. Jane stood beside him and watched as his classmate Austin worked with him. Austin had a wonderful way of communicating with Cameron. And he helped Cameron find his hero. Within a few minutes, Cameron quickly began drawing blue lines on his paper. Worried that her stare would make the kids unable to draw freely, Jane returned to the front of the classroom.
Twenty minutes later, unlike other kids, Cameron drew a picture of Jane while Austin drew a picture of Cameron. Cameron drew Jane because of her care for the class. Austin drew Cameron because of his courage to fight against his sickness and stay friendly and cheerful. Austin viewed Cameron as a superman. Jane didn’t know what Cameron and Austin had drawn. She was just curious.
Finally, it was time for everybody to share their hero pictures. Jane listened as each student proudly stood in front of the class, with a picture held high, and described the personal hero. Maddie’s dad was a policeman. She shared how her dad caught bad guys. Cory’s dad was a football coach, and he helped kids get strong and win the games. Shy Mark held up a picture of his mom and told why she was his hero. Next, Amanda shared how her brother was brave. Later, several students even described heroes by giving them superhuman strength. Jane just listened carefully.
注意:
1.续写词数应为150左右;
2.请按如下格式作答。
Finally, it was Cameron’s turn to share his hero.

These reviews are about a variety of restaurants in London.
The Ritz
Food: traditional British or fusion cuisine
Price per person: £80
This spectacular palace-style dining room is famous as one of London’s most luxurious, romantic restaurants. It’s hard to resist splashing out on the pretty 5-course menu. The staff are considerate and extremely polite. It’s hardly surprising that the clients are a mixture of celebrities, business executives and wealthy tourists. Come here for a memorable dining experience, which will certainly do damage to your bank account!
Yo sushi!
Food: Japanese
Price per person: £10-15
The best known sushi place in town. This restaurant is great both for its raw fish and its kitsch Japanese decoration. Service is efficient and speedy. You can eat delicious sushi for a few pounds, serve yourself unlimited beer, select food from a conveyor belt and even have a relaxing head massage! Sometimes there are karaoke nights here. This restaurant is bright and unromantic but great fun.
Amaretto
Food: Italian
Price per person: £15-20
A family-owned restaurant that has faithful clients coming back again and again. Amaretto offers classic Italian food in warm and friendly surroundings.

Great for families or big groups of friends.
Levant
Food: Lebanese/Middle Eastern
Price per person: £20-30
An exotic (异域风情的) Middle Eastern restaurant which is perfect for a romantic evening. The atmosphere is moody and private, with lots of candles, soft mats and coloured glass lanterns. When you find the entrance, hidden away down a small street, you are greeted by various plants and the smell of exotic perfumes.

Last year, a baby elephant in the state of Kerala in India fell into a well. Together, villagers and government officials mounted a five-hour rescue. As is evident in this video clip (片段), when the baby was reunited with the herd, one of the adult elephants turned around and raised her trunk at the rescuers. While I can’t say for sure it was a gesture of gratitude, based on what we know of elephants, I can say it’s entirely possible.
Today I’d like to borrow that trunk-raise gesture and offer grateful shout-outs about good things happening to farmed animals, who tend to get less attention than mammals like elephants and our companions like dogs and cats. I first learned about The Animal Place Food for Thought last year, a project working with nonprofit groups focused on animal and environmental causes to get animals off the menu at their events. “Farmed animals suffer greatly, and they are no different in capacities to feel joy, pain, and fear than the animals with whom we share homes,” said Patti Nyman, Food for Thought’s Campaign Manager.
Numerous organizations have supported d an animal-friendly menu in line with the campaign’s goals. The Food Futures Lab in Palo Alto, Calif, highlighted what it calls six artifacts (手工制品) from the future of food, an imaginative yet substantive way to show us what changes may be on the horizon. One of my favorite “artifacts” is the Lunchabios, a kit for kids of the future to take to school. It comes with a cheese bioreactor to culture one’s own yeast (酵母) and nutrient packets to help the cheese grow. Max Elder, research manager at the Lab said: “There’s a possible future in which over a trillion sentient lives are saved every year. That future might look like our world today, but with products like Lunchables containing food made from animal cells, not animal bodies.”
Some animal rescues are electric to watch unfold in real time, as with the baby elephant in Kerala, India. Others are slower to play out and less dramatic, but aim, nonetheless, at large-scale, caring action for billions of animals we too often forget.
24. Why is the elephant’s story mentioned in paragraph 1?
A. To display the intelligence of elephants.
B. To highlight a successful animal rescue.
C. To explain the dangers faced by elephants.
D. To show animals may feel human kindness.
25. What does The Animal Place Food for Thought focus on?
A. Advocating for animal rights. B. Promoting environmental causes.
C. Providing food for farmed animals. D. Raising concerns about farmed animals.
26. Which of the following best sums up Food Futures Lab’s contribution?
A. Cultivating animal cell-based food. B. Developing animal-friendly products.
C. Showcasing future food innovations. D. Designing food kits for future students.
27. What can be a suitable title for the text?
A. Food for Thought: A Voice for Farmed Animals.
B. Food Futures Lab: Innovations for Moral Eating.
C. Helping Farmed Animals: High-Impact Rescue.
D. Rescuing Animals in Need: Inspiring Tales of Hope.
【答案】24. D 25. D 26. B 27. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了作者对农场动物的关注,并呼吁大家对农场动物也给予更多的关注和帮助。
【24题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段“When the baby was reunited with the herd, one of the adult elephants turned around and raised her trunk at the rescuers. While I can’t say for sure it was a gesture of gratitude, based on what we know of elephants, I can say it’s entirely possible.(当小象与象群团聚时,一头成年象转过身来,对着救援人员扬起鼻子。虽然我不能肯定这是表示感激的姿态,但根据我们对大象的了解,我可以说这是完全有可能的。)”可知,第一段提到大象的故事是为了表明动物可能感受到人类的善意。故选D。
【25题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“I first learned about The Animal Place Food for Thought last year, a project working with nonprofit groups focused on animal and environmental causes to get animals off the menu at their events.(去年,我第一次了解到The Animal Place Food for Thought这个项目,这是一个与非营利组织合作的项目,专注于动物和环境事业,目的是让动物从活动的菜单中消失。)”可知,The Animal Place Food for Thought这个项目关注的是提高对农场动物的关注。故选D。
【26题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“The Food Futures Lab in Palo Alto, Calif, highlighted what it calls six artifacts from the future of food, an imaginative yet substantive way to show us what changes may be on the horizon.(位于加州帕洛阿尔托的Food Futures Lab强调了它所说的未来食品的六件工艺品,这是一种富有想象力但实质性的方式,向我们展示未来可能发生的变化。)”可知,Food Futures Lab的贡献是展示未来的食品创新。故选B。
【27题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文,尤其是最后一段提到“Others are slower to play out and less dramatic, but aim, nonetheless, at large-scale, caring action for billions of animals we too often forget.(其他行动则发展较慢,也不那么引人注目,但它们的目的是针对我们经常忘记的数十亿只动物,采取大规模、关怀的行动。)”可知,本文主要讲述了作者对农场动物的关注,并呼吁大家对农场动物也给予更多的关注和帮助,由此可知,C选项“帮助农场动物:高影响力的救援”最适合作为本文的标题。故选C。
C
The world is experiencing a loneliness epidemic. How strange! With so many new ways to be in touch with the people that we love, we can move away and still see their faces. Why is it that we’re actually getting lonelier?
The answer is that the way we stay in touch with each other is inadequate to what our brains and hearts need. Social media has changed the way that we pursue friendship. A lot of young people feel uncomfortable in real life communication, which might make them engage in a confrontation. It might feel like they have some sort of performance anxiety. More and more young people are comfortable talking to other people as long as it’s settled technologically.
There’s a neuropeptide (神经肽) in the human brain called “oxytocin.” That’s the intensely pleasurable hormone (荷尔蒙) that links us to our families, friends and loved ones. But you don’t get it over screens and even less over social media. You’ll be lonely, so you’ll be even more addicted to the social media, which makes things worse and worse. That’s the reason why we have a loneliness epidemic. We’re trying to settle our relationships with tools that don’t do a good job. Oxytocin requires two things: eye contact and touch. Those are exactly the two things that you don’t get when your relationships are settled by technology. So the best way that you can get oxytocin has to be somebody who’s a real person with you. Touch their hands and look them in the eye. Your brain needs it and longs for it. That’s how your brain’s evolved.
So a natural question that comes from all of this is: Should we have a complete ban on it in our lives? The answer to that is not necessarily. Do you use social media to figure out where you’re going to meet your friends and what they’re up to? Great, but that doesn’t take very long. You don’t need six hours on Facebook to do that. What you need is a specific period of time that you devote to actually catching up with the people you love and regular face-to-face contact with them offline.
28. What does the underlined word “confrontation” in Paragraph 2 mean?
A. Tolerance B. Resistance C. Harmony D. Cooperation
29. What is the purpose of talking of “oxytocin” in Paragraph 3?
A. To present the process of brain’s evolution.
B. To expose the harm of social media.
C. To show the importance of real human contact.
D. To draw the line between cyber-interaction and technological methods.
30. What should we do with the social media according to the author?
A. Forbid the use. B. Employ its advantages.
C. Reflect on its potential impact. D. Identify the diverse situations.
31. Which of the following best describes the author’s attitude to social media?
A. Doubtful B. Dismissive C. Objective D. Disapproving
【答案】28. B 29. C 30. B 31. C
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。世界正经历孤独流行病,原因是社交媒体维系关系方式不足,应合理利用社交媒体,重视线下真实人际接触。
【28题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第二段“A lot of young people feel uncomfortable in real life communication, which might make them engage in a confrontation. It might feel like they have some sort of performance anxiety. More and more young people are comfortable talking to other people as long as it’s settled technologically.(很多年轻人在现实生活中的交流中感到不舒服,这可能会使他们陷入一种confrontation状态。这可能感觉他们有某种表现焦虑。越来越多的年轻人只要通过技术手段来交流就会感到自在。)”可知,因为年轻人在现实交流中不舒服,且有表现焦虑,所以这里的confrontation应该是一种不太好的状态。再结合选项可知,confrontation应表示“抵抗”的意思。故选B项。
【29题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“But you don’t get it over screens and even less over social media. You’ll be lonely, so you’ll be even more addicted to the social media, which makes things worse and worse. That’s the reason why we have a loneliness epidemic. We’re trying to settle our relationships with tools that don’t do a good job. Oxytocin requires two things: eye contact and touch. Those are exactly the two things that you don’t get when your relationships are settled by technology. So the best way that you can get oxytocin has to be somebody who’s a real person with you. Touch their hands and look them in the eye. Your brain needs it and longs for it.(但是你不能通过屏幕得到它(催产素),在社交媒体上得到的更少。你会感到孤独,所以你会更加沉迷于社交媒体,这使情况越来越糟。这就是我们出现孤独流行病的原因。我们试图用不太有效的工具来维系我们的关系。催产素需要两样东西:眼神交流和触摸。而当你的关系是通过技术来维系时,这恰恰是你得不到的两样东西。所以获得催产素的最好方式必须是和一个真实的人在一起。握住他们的手,看着他们的眼睛。你的大脑需要它并且渴望它。)”可知,提到oxytocin是为了说明它的获取需要真实的人与人之间的接触,即眼神交流和触摸,而这些是技术手段无法提供的,从而强调了真实人际接触的重要性。故选C项。

推理判断题。根据最后一段“Do you use social media to figure out where you’re going to meet your friends and what they’re up to? Great, but that doesn’t take very long. You don’t need six hours on Facebook to do that. What you need is a specific period of time that you devote to actually catching up with the people you love and regular face-to-face contact with them offline.(你使用社交媒体来确定你要在哪里与朋友见面以及他们在做什么吗?很好,但这不需要很长时间。你不需要在脸书上花六个小时来做这件事。你需要的是一段特定的时间,专门用来真正与你爱的人叙旧,以及定期与他们进行线下的面对面接触。)”可知,作者认为社交媒体可以用来确定与朋友见面的地点和了解他们的情况,这是利用了社交媒体的优势,但不能过度依赖,要花时间进行线下的真实交流。故选B项。
【31题详解】
推理判断题。通读全文可知,文章中作者既提到了社交媒体带来的问题,如年轻人对现实交流不舒服,依赖社交媒体导致孤独加剧等,又提到了社交媒体可以用来确定与朋友见面的地点等优势,同时给出了合理使用社交媒体的建议,如利用它的一些功能但要进行线下真实交流等。这表明作者对社交媒体的态度是客观的,既看到了它的不足,也看到了它的优点。故选C项。

Like other 3D printers, the Vulcan printer puts down layer by layer of materials to build an object. However, this printer is more than 13.7 meters wide and prints homes for people to live in. This summer, the robotic printer from the homebuilder ICON will complete the last of the 100 3D-printed houses in Wolf Ranch, a community about 48 kilometers from Austin, Texas.
ICON began printing the walls of what it says is the world’s largest 3D-printed community in November 2022. Compared to traditional homebuilding the company says 3D printing is faster, less costly, requires fewer workers, and reduces waste. Conner Jenkins, a project leader, said, “It brings a lot of efficiency to the trade market... So, when there were maybe five different crews coming in to build a wall system, we now have one crew and one robot.”
After concrete powder, water, sand and other additives are mixed together and put into the printer, a device called a nozzle (喷嘴) releases the concrete mixture. The process looks like toothpaste being put onto a toothbrush, as the printer builds up the house layer by layer along an exact path. A four-bedroom home takes about three weeks to finish printing, with the foundation and metal roofs put in place with traditional building methods. Jenkins said the concrete walls are designed to be resistant to water, mold, insects and extreme weather. The walls also provide strong insulation (隔绝) from the heat and the materials keep the inside temperature cool even when the air conditioner is not put on high levels.
There was one other thing. The 3D-printed walls seemed to protect against a solid wireless Internet connection. Obviously these strong and thick walls keep really well-insulated in summer, but signals don’t transfer through these walls very well. To deal with this issue, an ICON spokeswoman said most Wolf Ranch homeowners use mesh Internet routers (路由器).These routers broadcast a signal from several units placed throughout a home, whereas a traditional router sends a signal from one device.
ICON, which 3D-printed its first home in Austin in 2018, hopes to one day take its technology to the Moon. NASA, as part of its Artemis Moon exploration program, has an agreement with ICON to develop a system capable of building landing pads, shelters, and other structures on the moon’s surface.
32. What is one of the advantages of the 3D printer?
A. The 3D printer is equipped with high technology.
B. The 3D printer can make homebuilding cost-effective.
C. The 3D printer promotes the rapid development of building industry.
D. The 3D printer can be resistant to water, mold, insects and extreme weather.
33. How does the 3D printer work?
A. By creating a large nozzle.
B. By printing the house layer by layer.
C. By putting the toothpaste onto a toothbrush.
D. By mixing powder, water, sand and other additives.
34. What is the reason that the homeowners use mesh Internet routers instead of traditional ones?
A. The 3D-printed walls block signals to a certain extent.
B. The inside temperature is cool.
C. Mesh Internet routers can hold up to severe weather conditions.
D. Mesh Internet routers can broadcast signals at home.
35. Why does NASA cooperate with ICON?
A. ICON’s technology revolutionizes the way we produce the world around us.
B. ICON’s 3D printers can help to meet a growing demand for housing on the moon.
C. ICON can help to develop some equipment and construction that NASA needs.
D. ICON’s 3D-printed homes can be taken to the moon.
【答案】32. B 33. B 34. A 35. C
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。本文介绍了ICON公司利用3D打印技术建造房屋的情况,包括其优势、工作原理、面临的挑战以及与NASA的合作。
【32题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“Compared to traditional homebuilding, the company says 3D printing is faster, less costly, requires fewer workers, and reduces waste.(与传统房屋建造相比,该公司表示,3D打印速度更快、成本更低、所需工人更少,并且减少了浪费。)”可知,3D打印机可以使房屋建造成本更低,即具有成本效益。故选B。
【33题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“Like other 3D printers, the Vulcan printer puts down layer by layer of materials to build an object.(与其他3D打印机一样,Vulcan打印机通过逐层铺设材料来构建一个物体。)”可知,3D打印机是通过逐层打印来工作的。故选B。
【34题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段“Obviously these strong and thick walls keep really well-insulated in summer, but signals don’t transfer through these walls very well. To deal with this issue, an ICON spokeswoman said most Wolf Ranch homeowners use mesh Internet routers.(显然,这些坚固而厚实的墙壁在夏天能很好地隔热,但信号不能很好地穿过这些墙壁。为了解决这个问题,ICON的一位发言人表示,Wolf Ranch的大多数房主都使用网状互联网路由器。)”可知,业主使用网状互联网路由器而不是传统路由器是因为3D打印的墙壁在一定程度上阻挡了信号。故选A。
【35题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“ICON, which 3D-printed its first home in Austin in 2018, hopes to one day take its technology to the Moon. NASA, as part of its Artemis Moon exploration program, has an agreement with ICON to develop a system capable of building landing pads, shelters, and other structures on the moon’s surface.(ICON于2018年在奥斯汀打印了它的第一栋房子,并希望有一天能将其技术带到月球上。作为其阿尔忒弥斯月球探测计划的一部分,NASA与ICON达成了一项协议,以开发一种能够在月球表面建造着陆台、避难所和其他结构的系统。)”可知,NASA与ICON合作是因为ICON可以帮助开发NASA所需的一些设备和建筑。故选C。

根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。
After a long day, you fall onto the sofa and find yourself dozing off while watching TV. The room is nice and warm, the sofa is comfortable, and the background sound of the TV makes you sleep. ____36____ But when you get there, you find to your frustration that you’re wide awake.
Why is it so easy to fall asleep on the sofa?
Sleep pressure is one reason why you fall asleep on the sofa. ____37____ The longer you’ve been awake, the greater the sleep pressure is. Your environment will also impact how likely it is you fall asleep, such as your very comfortable sofa in a warm room, dim lighting and maybe a TV program in the background.
____38____
If you just fell asleep on the sofa for five minutes, you might not have too much trouble getting to sleep in bed. ____39____ But if you were asleep for an hour, it might be a different story. Your sleep cycles might also be working against you. Most sleep cycles are about 90 minutes long. They start with light sleep, progress to deep sleep, and then end with light sleep again. If you wake up during light sleep, it could be harder to fall asleep again in bed.
Why can’t I fall asleep in my own bed?
There are other reasons why falling asleep in your bed could be challenging. Many people experience anxiety about falling asleep. ____40____ In such cases, getting into bed can be associated with feelings of stress and fear, which make it even harder to sleep. It might be easier to fall asleep on the couch, where there is less stress involved.
A. How do sleep cycles work?
B. What happens after a nap on the sofa?
C This refers to the strength of the biological drive for sleep.
D. Then a loved one touches you awake and reminds you to go to sleep in bed.
E. This is because a short nap is unlikely to reduce your sleep pressure very much.
F. They worry about getting enough sleep or falling asleep fast enough.
G. Their behaviours before bed and their bedroom environment can’t contribute to sleep.

【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了为何人们容易在沙发上睡着,以及这种短暂的睡眠如何影响后续的睡眠。
【36题详解】
上文“After a long day, you fall onto the sofa and find yourself dozing off while watching TV. The room is nice and warm, the sofa is comfortable, and the background sound of the TV makes you sleep.(漫长的一天过后,你倒在沙发上,发现自己一边看电视一边打瞌睡。房间很暖和,沙发很舒服,电视的背景音让你昏昏欲睡。)”描述了在沙发上快要睡着的情景,下文“But when you get there, you find to your frustration that you’re wide awake. (但当你到达那里时,你沮丧地发现自己完全清醒了。)”中“there”指代空处提到的某个地方,且与在沙发上睡着相反,由此可知,空处应是提到另一个地方,D项“Then a loved one touches you awake and reminds you to go to sleep in bed.(然后一个你爱的人把你叫醒,提醒你去床上睡觉)”符合语境,D项中“bed”与下文“there”呼应。故选D。
【37题详解】
上文“Sleep pressure is one reason why you fall asleep on the sofa.(睡眠压力是你在沙发上睡着的原因之一。)”可知,提到了睡眠压力,下文“The longer you’ve been awake, the greater the sleep pressure is.(你醒着的时间越长,睡眠压力就越大。)”是对“睡眠压力”的进一步解释,由此可知,空处应是继续解释“睡眠压力”,C项“This refers to the strength of the biological drive for sleep.(这是指生理睡眠驱动力的强度)”符合语境,C项中“This”指代上文提到的“Sleep pressure”。故选C。
【38题详解】
空处是本段小标题,根据下文“If you just fell asleep on the sofa for five minutes, you might not have too much trouble getting to sleep in bed. (如果你只是在沙发上睡了五分钟,你在床上入睡可能不会有太多问题。)”及“But if you were asleep for an hour, it might be a different story.(但如果你睡了一个小时,情况可能就不一样了。)”可知,本段主要讲的是在沙发上小睡之后会发生什么,B项“What happens after a nap on the sofa?(在沙发上小睡之后会发生什么?)”符合语境。故选B。
【39题详解】
根据上文“If you just fell asleep on the sofa for five minutes, you might not have too much trouble getting to sleep in bed.(如果你只是在沙发上睡了五分钟,你在床上入睡可能不会有太多问题。)可知,在沙发上小睡五分钟,在床上入睡可能不会有太多问题,结合下文“But if you were asleep for an hour, it might be a different story.(但如果你睡了一个小时,情况可能就不一样了。)”可知,空处与下文形成转折关系,空处应是解释为什么在沙发上小睡五分钟,在床上入睡可能不会有太多问题,E项“This is because a short nap is unlikely to reduce your sleep pressure very much.(这是因为短时间的小睡不太可能大大降低你的睡眠压力)”符合语境,E项中“a short nap”指代上文“fell asleep on the sofa for five minutes”。故选E。
【40题详解】
根据上文“Many people experience anxiety about falling asleep.(很多人对入睡感到焦虑。)”和下文“In such cases, getting into bed can be associated with feelings of stress and fear, which make it even harder to sleep.(在这种情况下,上床睡觉可能会与压力和恐惧的感觉联系在一起,这会使入睡更加困难。)”可知,空处应是具体说明对入睡感到焦虑的表现,F项“They worry about getting enough sleep or falling asleep fast enough.(他们担心睡眠不足或入睡不够快)”符合语境,F项中“They”指代上文“Many people”。故选F。

阅读下面短文,在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。
At 19, Chen Yuxi’s ____56____ (achieve) in diving are already the stuff of legend: two Olympic gold medals and two silvers. Yet, as a freshman at Tongji University, she looks forward to her university experience with a sense of anticipation.
Born in 2005 in Shanghai, Chen started her sporting life as a gymnast, ____57____ her earliest memories drawn from fragments of stories shared by her parents. While gymnastics had been taught to her by her father, the young girl faced a new challenge when she transitioned to diving — adapting to a new coach.

Reflecting on her ____61____ (early) years in the sport, Chen admits that she struggled with self-doubt. She said, “I used to get caught up in every small detail. If I didn’t perform well in training, I would dwell on it for a long time, which affected my mindset, both in practice and competition.”
Chen’s perspective on life is shaped by her experiences in diving, where she ____62____(spend) over a decade honing her skills. “In diving, you have five attempts. You push through each one, even if you make mistakes along the way. You can’t afford ____63____ (get) discouraged, because you won’t know the results until you hit the water,” she noted.
But for Chen, lessons learned in diving go far beyond ____64____ pool. “Life is about finding joy in the everyday moments, discovering ____65____ makes you happy, and constantly learning and growing. Whether it’s diving, academics or personal pursuits, I want to continue improving, stay strong and keep pushing forward,” she said.

【解析】
【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章主要介绍了19岁的跳水运动员陈芋汐的经历和她的感悟。
【56题详解】
考查名词复数。句意:19岁的陈芋汐在跳水领域的成就已经堪称传奇:两枚奥运金牌和两枚银牌。此处为名词作主语,achieve的名词为achievement意为“成就”,为可数名词,根据谓语动词“are”可知,此处应为名词复数形式。故填achievements。
【57题详解】
考查介词。句意:陈芋汐2005年出生于上海,她最初的体育生涯是作为一名体操运动员开始的,她最早的记忆来自父母讲述的只言片语的故事。“with +宾语+过去分词”的复合结构,在句中作伴随状语,with表示“具有,带有”。故填with。
【58题详解】
考查形容词。句意:由于害怕水,她在游泳课上很挣扎,尽管有十几位教练付出了努力,她似乎还是无法克服自己的恐惧。be terrified of是固定短语,意为“害怕……”,这里用形容词“terrified”作状语,修饰主语“she”的状态,且位于句首,首字母需大写。故填Terrified。
【59题详解】
考查反身代词。句意:“那时候,我就告诉自己,‘我已经走到了这一步,所以我必须全力以赴。’此处为tell的宾语,主语和宾语为同一人,所以此处应为反身代词作宾语,主语为I,所以此处应为myself。故填myself。
【60题详解】
考查副词。句意:“我每天都不知疲倦地练习,直到最后一刻。”她说。此处应为副词作状语修饰动词practiced,tireless的副词为tirelessly。故填tirelessly。
【61题详解】
考查形容词比较级。句意:回顾自己在这项运动中更早的时光,陈芋汐承认自己曾与自我怀疑作斗争。结合语境,这里是在回顾她在这项运动中更早的那些年,与现在形成对比。“earlier”是“early”的比较级,意为“更早的”。故填earlier。
【62题详解】
考查动词时态和主谓一致。句意:陈芋汐对生活的看法是由她在跳水中的经历塑造的,在跳水领域她已经花了十多年的时间磨练自己的技能。此处为谓语动词,根据时间状语over a decade可知,此处应为现在完成时,spend与主语she之间为主动关系,且主语为第三人称单数。故填has spent。
【63题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:“你不能气馁,因为直到入水的那一刻,你才会知道结果。”她指出。固定搭配afford to do sth.意为“负担得起做某事”可知,此处应为不定式形式。故填to get。
【64题详解】
考查冠词。句意:但对陈芋汐来说,在跳水中学到的东西远不止于泳池。根据pool可知,此处表示特指,所以应为定冠词the的用法。故填the。
【65题详解】
考查宾语从句。句意:生活就是在日常生活的瞬间找到快乐,发现什么能让你开心,不断学习和成长。空处引导宾语从句,从句中缺少主语,指物,所以此处使用连接代词what引导该从句。故填what。

【答案】Dear Jasper,
I hope this email finds you well. I heard about the incident with your teacher and wanted to share my thoughts on online learning tools like Homework Help and offer some advice.
Online learning tools can be incredibly beneficial when used correctly. They provide a wealth of information and resources that can help us understand complex issues better. However, don’t rely on these tools to do our homework, or we miss out on the opportunity to truly learn and develop our problem-solving skills. You should bear it in mind that you can use online tools to clarify doubts or deepen your understanding, but always try to solve problems on your own first.
I know you’re capable of turning this situation around and showing everyone what you’re really made of. Stay positive and keep pushing forward!
Yours,
Li Hua

67. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Jane was a grade schoolteacher. Weeks after the new school year started, one kid Cameron especially touched her heart.
Cameron had autism (自闭症), but that didn’t matter to his classmates or Jane. They all loved him just the way he was. He was energetic, optimistic, friendly, humorous, and cheerful. And he was full of wonderful stories and brought a special feeling to the class. Jane felt lucky to be a teacher of the class.
One class after completing a unit on heroes, Jane gave her class a task to draw their favorite heroes. Most kids were busy creating colorful pictures. Some were drawing people like scientists, firefighters, even their brothers, sisters and parents.
However. Cameron, who sat in the back of the classroom, was having difficulty with the drawing task. Jane stood beside him and watched as his classmate Austin worked with him. Austin had a wonderful way of communicating with Cameron. And he helped Cameron find his hero. Within a few minutes, Cameron quickly began drawing blue lines on his paper. Worried that her stare would make the kids unable to draw freely, Jane returned to the front of the classroom.
Twenty minutes later, unlike other kids, Cameron drew a picture of Jane while Austin drew a picture of Cameron. Cameron drew Jane because of her care for the class. Austin drew Cameron because of his courage to fight against his sickness and stay friendly and cheerful. Austin viewed Cameron as a superman. Jane didn’t know what Cameron and Austin had drawn. She was just curious.
Finally, it was time for everybody to share their hero pictures. Jane listened as each student proudly stood in front of the class, with a picture held high, and described the personal hero. Maddie’s dad was a policeman. She shared how her dad caught bad guys. Cory’s dad was a football coach, and he helped kids get strong and win the games. Shy Mark held up a picture of his mom and told why she was his hero. Next, Amanda shared how her brother was brave. Later, several students even described heroes by giving them superhuman strength. Jane just listened carefully.

【答案】Paragraph 1:
Finally, it was Cameron’s turn to share his hero. Cameron stood up and gladly placed his large blue stick-figured drawing in front of his face. He said aloud it was a picture of Jane. He then explained how she cared for all the kids and returned to his seat. Tears began to well up in Jane’s eyes, but nothing could have prepared her for what happened next. When Austin stood up to share his picture, Jane was certain it would be a policeman.
Paragraph 2:
To Jane’s surprise, Austin proudly held up a picture of his friend Cameron. Passionately, Austin said Cameron had this sickness that made it hard to learn, but he was like Superman and was really smart. When Austin finished his words, Jane and many kids were touched. Suddenly, Cameron stood up, putting his arms up in the air as if he’d take off and fly. He excitedly yelled out, “I’m Superman!” The entire class stood up and began modeling him. The class all cheered as though they had each discovered the secret of becoming superheroes.
