Marco Polo grew up in the city of Venice, in present-day Italy. In 1271, when he was 17 years old, he set off on a journey to Asia with his father and uncle, and did not return home until 1295. His travels took him across Asia, along the Silk Road and throughout China. He loved Hangzhou so much that he described it as “the finest city in the world” When Polo finally returned to Venice, there was a war and he was captured (捕获). While he was in prison, he told the stories of his travels to another man there. This man wrote the stories down in a book called The Travels of Marco Polo, which soon became well known in Europe because of the interesting descriptions of Asian life. The book, The Travels of Marco Polo, had a big influence on Europe. It was one of the first books to describe life in Asia, and it introduced Europeans to many new ideas and things they had never seen before. For example, Polo talked about paper money, huge cities, and advanced systems of communication in China. These stories surprised Europeans, making them more interested in the East. The book also inspired many explorers (探险家). Christopher Columbus, for example, read the book and was motivated to find a new route to Asia, which led to his famous voyage in 1492. Meantime, Marco Polo’s stories opened the eyes of Europeans to a wider world and encouraged them to explore and learn more about other cultures. Even though Polo died in 1324, the book continued to influence people for centuries. His last words, “I did not tell half of what I saw,” showed just how amazing his journey really was. 4.

They would not be able to enjoy school, friends, their teams, or birthday parties. They’d be watching too closely how she looked, moved, acted, ate, and so on. Marla wanted her daughters to stay children: happy, relaxed, and confident. In 2009, Marla’s doctor called to tell her that she had early-stage cancer. After several medical operations, she needed eight rounds of chemotherapy (化疗) to clear the cancer found in her body. Our kids were 8, 9, and 11 at the time, and they understood that their mother was under treatment, but we never told them the news we soon learned from hospital: Marla had the most serious cancer cell, and she had little chance to stay alive. Her doctor directly told her, “Go to live your next 1,000 days in the best way you know how.” Though she was badly ill, Marla went on running long distances, for her own mental (心理的) fitness, and more importantly, so her kids would see her strong. I knew these miles were a wonder. Marla survived a little more than 3,500 days instead of 1,000. In her lifetime, she celebrated 25 anniversaries (周年纪念日), 57 children’s birthdays, one college acceptances, and two high-school graduations. But the next numbers make me sad; Zero college graduations. Zero weddings. Zero grandchildren. Marla said to me at the hospital, “No glory (辉煌的) days for us. We almost had the kids out of the house, and now you’re alone. I’m so sorry.” I replied, “Sorry about what? You lived life to the fullest and made life worth living. I admired your power and courage. You already outran science. Thank you for taking me on your magic journey. Rest easy, my one and only girlfriend.” 8. How did Marla face her illness? A. She continued sports activities. B. She accepted it angrily. C. She avoided social life. D. She refused medical treatment. 9. What do the numbers show in Paragraph 4? A. Their valuable memories. B. Seriousness of her illness. C. A mixed feeling of joy and sadness. D. Importance of family celebrations. 10. What does the underlined word “outran” mean in the last paragraph? A. 相信 B. 依赖 C. 超过 D. 证实 11. What does Marla’s story tell us? A. Life is challenging. B. The fullest life matters most. C. Love can beat illness. D. Happiness takes long time. 【答案】8. A 9. C 10. C 11. B 【解析】 【导语】本文讲述了Marla在得知自己患有严重癌症后，选择不将病情告诉孩子们，而是坚强地面对生活，希望孩子们能无忧无虑地成长。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据“Though she was badly ill, Marla went on running long distances”可知，在知道自己患有癌症后，她继续体育活动。故选A。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。根据“Marla survived a little more than 3,500 days instead of 1,000. In her lifetime, she celebrated 25 anniversaries ( 周年纪念日), 57 children’s birthdays, three college acceptances, and two high-school graduations. But the next numbers make me sad: Zero college graduations. Zero weddings. Zero grandchildren.”可知，这些数字既代表了Marla见证的喜悦时刻，也代表了她的遗憾。故选C。 【10题详解】 词义猜测题。根据“Marla survived a little more than 3,500 days instead of 1,000.”和“You already outran science.”可知，Marla活了3500多天，而不是1000天，这已经超越科学了，划线单词意为“超过”。故选C。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。根据“You lived life to the fullest and made life worth living.”及全文可知，本文讲述了Marla在得知自己患有严重癌症后，依然坚强勇敢地生活，活出了自己的精彩，从而告诉我们充实的生活最重要。故选B。 D AI has been developing rapidly in recent years. Now, robots are used to fry chicken, make pizzas, prepare salads and much more. AI can invent recipes based on what a kitchen has.

AI kitchens enable cooks to avoid boring tasks such as peeling potatoes or standing at a workstation for hours. It can free up time, allowing people to focus on more important tasks. However, there are risks to human. Cooking is a good activity that helps with communication but these benefits could be reduced if the human beings don’t join in cooking. Family relationships might suffer without cooking together in the kitchen. Cultural risks must also be considered. For example, AI could mess up traditional recipes and methods and overlook (忽视) cultural differences. This may result in AI and robot cooks producing less different dishes. Depending too heavily on technology in meal creation may lead to the sameness in taste. Convenience can come at a great cost, so it’s important to consider the possible social problem that new technologies might bring, especially in areas like food that are closely connected with our everyday lives. 12.

Because they want to reduce the need for human workers. D. Because they want to improve communication among staff. 13. What benefit of AI kitchens is mentioned in the passage? A. Saving time. B. Saving money on food. C. Reducing kitchen waste. D. Improving family relationships. 14. Which proverb can show the author’s attitude towards AI kitchens? A. Where there is a will there is a way. B. Every cloud has a silver lining (银边). C. Every coin (硬币) has two sides. D. Kill two birds with one stone. 15. What’s the best title for this passage? A. Traditional Cooking Methods vs. Technology B. Robots: The New Cooks in Restaurants C. The Influence of AI vs. Family Relationships D. AI in the Kitchen: Benefits and Risks 【答案】12. B 13. A 14. C 15. D 【解析】 【导语】本文讲述了人工智能厨房的现状，分析其好处如节省时间，也指出可能存在的问题。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据“Since technology tends to be expensive at first, restaurants and other businesses are the first ones to use AI kitchen technologies.”可知，由于技术一开始往往很昂贵，餐馆和其他企业是第一批使用人工智能厨房技术的人，即餐馆可以负担得起高昂的费用。故选B。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据“It can free up time, allowing people to focus on more important tasks.”可知，人工智能厨房能够节省时间。故选A。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据“AI kitchens enable cooks to avoid boring tasks such as peeling potatoes or standing at a workstation for hours.

Marco Polo grew up in the city of Venice, in present-day Italy. In 1271, when he was 17 years old, he set off on a journey to Asia with his father and uncle, and did not return home until 1295. His travels took him across Asia, along the Silk Road and throughout China. He loved Hangzhou so much that he described it as “the finest city in the world” When Polo finally returned to Venice, there was a war and he was captured (捕获). While he was in prison, he told the stories of his travels to another man there. This man wrote the stories down in a book called The Travels of Marco Polo, which soon became well known in Europe because of the interesting descriptions of Asian life. The book, The Travels of Marco Polo, had a big influence on Europe. It was one of the first books to describe life in Asia, and it introduced Europeans to many new ideas and things they had never seen before. For example, Polo talked about paper money, huge cities, and advanced systems of communication in China. These stories surprised Europeans, making them more interested in the East. The book also inspired many explorers (探险家). Christopher Columbus, for example, read the book and was motivated to find a new route to Asia, which led to his famous voyage in 1492. Meantime, Marco Polo’s stories opened the eyes of Europeans to a wider world and encouraged them to explore and learn more about other cultures. Even though Polo died in 1324, the book continued to influence people for centuries. His last words, “I did not tell half of what I saw,” showed just how amazing his journey really was. 4 How long did Marco Polo spend traveling in Asia? A. 17 years. B. 24 months. C. 41 years. D. 24 years. 5. What’s the main idea of the third paragraph? A. Where and how The Travels of Marco Polo was written down. B. Why and when The Travels of Marco Polo was famous. C. How and why Polo’s travels became famous. D. What The Travels of Marco Polo was about. 6. What was the main influence of The Travels of Marco Polo on Europe? A. It started a war between Venice and other countries. B. It made Hangzhou the most famous city in Europe. C. It introduced Asian technology and inspired exploration. D. It taught Europeans how to use paper money. 7. Which of the following is right according to the passage? A. Polo talked about systems of transportation in China in the book. B. Polo didn’t tell all the things he saw in the book. C. Polo developed the Silk Road. D. Polo was dead in prison. C We decided not to tell the kids that their mother had suffered cancer. They would not be able to enjoy school, friends, their teams, or birthday parties. They’d be watching too closely how she looked, moved, acted, ate, and so on. Marla wanted her daughters to stay children: happy, relaxed, and confident. In 2009, Marla’s doctor called to tell her that she had early-stage cancer. After several medical operations, she needed eight rounds of chemotherapy (化疗) to clear the cancer found in her body. Our kids were 8, 9, and 11 at the time, and they understood that their mother was under treatment, but we never told them the news we soon learned from hospital: Marla had the most serious cancer cell, and she had little chance to stay alive. Her doctor directly told her, “Go to live your next 1,000 days in the best way you know how.” Though she was badly ill, Marla went on running long distances, for her own mental (心理的) fitness, and more importantly, so her kids would see her strong. I knew these miles were a wonder. Marla survived a little more than 3,500 days instead of 1,000. In her lifetime, she celebrated 25 anniversaries (周年纪念日), 57 children’s birthdays, one college acceptances, and two high-school graduations. But the next numbers make me sad; Zero college graduations. Zero weddings. Zero grandchildren. Marla said to me at the hospital, “No glory (辉煌的) days for us. We almost had the kids out of the house, and now you’re alone. I’m so sorry.” I replied, “Sorry about what? You lived life to the fullest and made life worth living. I admired your power and courage. You already outran science. Thank you for taking me on your magic journey. Rest easy, my one and only girlfriend.” 8. How did Marla face her illness? A. She continued sports activities. B. She accepted it angrily. C. She avoided social life. D. She refused medical treatment. 9. What do the numbers show in Paragraph 4? A. Their valuable memories. B. Seriousness of her illness. C. A mixed feeling of joy and sadness. D. Importance of family celebrations. 10. What does the underlined word “outran” mean in the last paragraph? A. 相信 B. 依赖 C. 超过 D. 证实 11. What does Marla’s story tell us? A. Life is challenging. B. The fullest life matters most. C. Love can beat illness. D. Happiness takes long time. D AI has been developing rapidly in recent years. Now, robots are used to fry chicken, make pizzas, prepare salads and much more. AI can invent recipes based on what a kitchen has. Since technology tends to be expensive at first, restaurants and other businesses are the first ones to use AI kitchen technologies. Over time, prices are likely to fall enough for the home market, changing how homes and society work. AI kitchens enable cooks to avoid boring tasks such as peeling potatoes or standing at a workstation for hours. It can free up time, allowing people to focus on more important tasks. However, there are risks to human. Cooking is a good activity that helps with communication but these benefits could be reduced if the human beings don’t join in cooking. Family relationships might suffer without cooking together in the kitchen. Cultural risks must also be considered. For example, AI could mess up traditional recipes and methods and overlook (忽视) cultural differences. This may result in AI and robot cooks producing less different dishes. Depending too heavily on technology in meal creation may lead to the sameness in taste. Convenience can come at a great cost, so it’s important to consider the possible social problem that new technologies might bring, especially in areas like food that are closely connected with our everyday lives. 12. Why are restaurants the first to choose AI kitchen technologies? A. Because these technologies are developed specifically for them. B. Because they can afford the high costs. C. Because they want to reduce the need for human workers. D. Because they want to improve communication among staff. 13 What benefit of AI kitchens is mentioned in the passage? A. Saving time. B. Saving money on food. C Reducing kitchen waste. D. Improving family relationships. 14. Which proverb can show the author’s attitude towards AI kitchens? A. Where there is a will, there is a way. B. Every cloud has a silver lining (银边). C. Every coin (硬币) has two sides. D. Kill two birds with one stone. 15. What’s the best title for this passage? A. Traditional Cooking Methods vs. Technology B. Robots: The New Cooks in Restaurants C. The Influence of AI vs. Family Relationships D. AI in the Kitchen: Benefits and Risks 第二节（共5 小题；每小题1分，满分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。选项中有一项为多余选项。 In the US, greeting someone often starts with “Hi, how are you?” This can be confusing (令人困惑) for people from other countries. ___16___.
