That’s why Josephine Michaluk, an 81-year-old woman from Canada, is devoted to helping others in this way. In fact, she is the record holder for the most units of blood donated in a lifetime. Michaluk’s kindness all began in 1965 at the age of 22 when she attended a blood donation event with her sister. Since then, she has been devoted to donating blood for as long as her body allows her to. Last year, at the age of 80, she officially earned the Guinness World Records title for the most whole blood donated by a female. She had donated 203 pints (品脱) of blood at that point. Thus far, she has reached a total of 209 blood donations, and she isn’t done yet. The inspiring woman continues to maintain over four donations annually. Her O+ blood type is highly desired in medical settings, as it is a more universal match than any other positive blood types. The Red Cross Donation states that O+ makes up 38% of the population in the United States. This generous woman’s contributions continue to help reinforce the supply of blood that can be life-saving. The kindhearted Canadian mentions the physical examination that is completed before any donation. This may include checking blood pressure, hemoglobin (血红蛋白) levels, and pulse rate of the potential donor. Even after donating a pint of blood, Michaluk mentions that she feels refreshed. Each donation of a pint from start to finish takes about 75 minutes. Throughout her lifetime, Michaluk has spent roughly 15, 675 minutes donating blood. She intends to go ahead to help others as long as she can. Photographed with a shirt that reads, “Are you the type to save a life?” she challenges others to step outside of their comfort zone to help people around the world. 4. What can we learn about Michaluk from the first two paragraphs? A. She donates blood for material rewards. B. She is eager to become a record holder. C. She was encouraged by her sister to donate blood. D. She will continue to donate blood if physically fit. 5. What does the underlined word “reinforce” probably mean in paragraph 3? A. Balance. B. Influence. C. Strengthen. D. Ensure. 6. What is a possible reason for mentioning how Michaluk feels in paragraph 4? A. To draw attention to the health of the elderly. B. To explain the process of physical examination. C. To prove blood donation suits people of all ages. D To serve as an inspiration to others to donate blood. 7. What does the author think of Josephine Michaluk? A. Generous. B. Humorous. C. Talented. D. Independent. 【答案】4. D 5. C 6. D 7. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了加拿大81岁女性Josephine Michaluk的献血事迹。她的O+血型在医疗领域非常宝贵，因为这是一种更普遍的匹配血型。她通过献血帮助了无数需要帮助的人，并且鼓励其他人也走出舒适区，参与献血，拯救生命。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“Michaluk’s kindness all began in 1965 at the age of 22 when she attended a blood donation event with her sister. Since then, she has been devoted to donating blood for as long as her body allows her to. (Michaluk的善举始于1965年，当时她22岁，和姐姐一起参加了一次献血活动。从那时起，只要她的身体允许，她就一直致力于献血。)”以及“ Thus far, she has reached a total of 209 blood donations, and she isn’t done yet.(到目前为止，她已经捐了209次血，而且她还没有结束。)”可知，Michaluk自1965年22岁时开始献血，并一直持续献血，到目前为止，她已经捐了209次血，而且只要身体允许她将继续献血；由此可知，如果身体健康，她将继续献血。故选D。 【5题详解】 词义猜测题。根据划线词前面的内容“Her O+ blood type is highly desired in medical settings, as it is a more universal match than any other positive blood types. The Red Cross Donation states that O+ makes up 38% of the population in the United States. (她的O+型血型在医疗领域非常受欢迎，因为这种血型比其他阳性血型更普遍。红十字会的捐赠指出，O+型人群占美国人口的38%。)”以及划线词后面的内容“... the supply of blood that can be life-saving.(……血液的供应可以挽救生命。)”可知，Michaluk的O+型血型在医疗领域非常受欢迎，因为这种血型比其他阳性血型更普遍，所以她的献血行为对于血液供应的积极影响，即她的献血行为有助于加强或增强能够挽救生命的血液供应。故推断划线词与C选项“Strengthen.(增强)”为同义词。故选C。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段中“Even after donating a pint of blood, Michaluk mentions that she feels refreshed.( 即使捐了一品脱血，Michaluk也觉得精神焕发。)”可知，此处提及Michaluk献血后感到精神焕发，这可能是为了展示献血对个人健康的积极影响，并激励其他人也参与献血。故选D。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。通读全文，文章讲述了加拿大81岁女性Josephine Michaluk的献血事迹。自1965年22岁时开始献血以来，她一直持续献血，至今已经累计献血209次，成为世界上献血次数最多的女性。她的O+血型在医疗领域非常宝贵，因为这是一种更普遍的匹配血型。米查卢克通过献血帮助了无数需要帮助的人，并且鼓励其他人也走出舒适区，参与献血，拯救生命，由此作者认为她是一个慷慨的人。A选项“Generous.(慷慨的。)”符合题意。故选A。 C People send messages every day on social media. These online conversations can have a huge impact and shape how societies make decisions. But there is a growing problem. Sometimes people don’t listen to each other and can say really hurtful things. Would it be better if there were an advisor in online talks? We tried to use artificial intelligence (AI) (人工智能) to carry out this task. So, we did an online experiment with pairs of people discussing a challenging topic. In the first group, one participant (参与者) in each pair had an AI helper. The AI tried to make sure the discussion was polite and respectful. It didn’t change the participant’s point of view, though! The participant could accept or refuse the suggestions or completely edit the message an AI helper offers. In the control group, the people had a conversation on the same topic but neither of the participants had an AI helper. After the discussions ended, the pairs shared their thoughts on how good the conversation was. In our study, the participants accepted the AI’s suggestions two thirds of the time. When they used the AI’s suggestions, the messages became more positive and polite. Participants whose partners used the AI reported feeling better about the conversation. They were more willing to understand and respect each other, even if they still disagreed. The people who used the AI themselves didn’t report a huge change in how they felt about the conversation. However, they were more willing to respect the opinions of others! The results of our study show that AI did a good job of making online discussions polite. But you don’t need a reminder to be respectful. Even in the vast digital world, each conversation matters. Your choice to be kind and respectful can make a big difference. It can promote a culture of healthy discussion and understanding. This is also true for real-life conversations. 8. What do the underlined words “this task” in paragraph 1 probably refer to? A. Starting talks. B. Guiding conversations. C. Changing views. D. Sending messages. 9. What do we learn about participants with AI helpers? A. They responded to AI politely. B. They changed views as AI suggested. C. They tended to respect others’ views. D. They experienced mixed feelings. 10. What does the author want to stress in the last paragraph? A. The effectiveness of AI in online discussions. B. The significance of respectful communication. C. The importance of reminders in conversations. D. The balance between technologies and choices. 11. Which is the most suitable title for the text? A. Can Al remove mean posts? B. Can AI make online talks kinder? C. How to respect different opinions? D. How to reach an agreement online? 【答案】8. B 9. C 10. B 11. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章主要讨论了人工智能（AI）在网络对话中的作用，通过一个在线实验来探讨AI助手如何帮助人们在讨论敏感话题时保持礼貌和尊重。 【8题详解】 词义猜测题。根据划线词前面的内容“But there is a growing problem. Sometimes people don’t listen to each other and can say really hurtful things. Would it be better if there were an advisor in online talks? (但是有一个日益严重的问题。有时候人们不听对方的，会说一些很伤人的话。如果在线会谈中有一个顾问会不会更好？)”可知，有时候人们不听对方的，会说一些很伤人的话。如果在线会谈中有一个顾问会不会更好？因此划线词指代的是使用人工智能作为在线对话的顾问，以确保对话是礼貌和尊重的即避免说一些很伤人的话，故该任务指代的是即指导对话。故选B。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“The AI tried to make sure the discussion was polite and respectful. It didn’t change the participant’s point of view, though! The participant could accept or refuse the suggestions or completely edit the message an AI helper offers. (人工智能试图确保讨论是礼貌和尊重的。然而，这并没有改变参与者的观点！参与者可以接受或拒绝人工智能助手的建议，也可以完全编辑人工智能助手提供的信息。)”可知，在使用AI助手可以确保参与者是礼貌的和尊重的，即使存在分歧，参与者可以接受或拒绝人工智能助手的建议，也可以完全编辑人工智能助手提供的信息，更愿意理解和尊重对方。故选C。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Even in the vast digital world, each conversation matters. Your choice to be kind and respectful can make a big difference. It can promote a culture of healthy discussion and understanding. This is also true for real-life conversations. ( 即使在庞大的数字世界里，每一次对话都很重要。你选择友善和尊重他人会带来很大的不同。它可以促进健康讨论和理解的文化。现实生活中的对话也是如此。)”可知，最后一段强调了尊重的沟通的重要性，即使在数字世界中，每个人的对话都很重要，选择善良和尊重可以促进健康的讨论文化和理解。故选B。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“But there is a growing problem. Sometimes people don’t listen to each other and can say really hurtful things. Would it be better if there were an advisor in online talks? We tried to use artificial intelligence (AI) (人工智能) to carry out this task. (但是有一个日益严重的问题。有时候人们不听对方的，会说一些很伤人的话。如果在线会谈中有一个顾问会不会更好?我们尝试使用人工智能(AI)来完成这项任务。)”以及通读全文可知，文章主要讨论了人工智能（AI）在网络对话中的作用，通过一个在线实验来探讨AI助手如何帮助人们在讨论敏感话题时保持礼貌和尊重。实验结果显示，使用AI助手的建议可以使对话更加积极和礼貌，参与者更愿意理解和尊重对方，即使他们仍然存在分歧即文章讨论了人工智能在使在线对话更加礼貌方面的作用。故选B。 D Maths is all around us, from working out how to share the bill after a meal to calculating (计算) your household bills. Some people love the challenge of working out maths problems, but many fear the moment when they have to deal with numbers and figures and feel a real sense of worry. It can seem discouraging, but this ‘maths anxiety’ is perfectly normal, and you’re definitely not alone. And anyway, our worries and fears don’t necessarily reflect our ability. The problem really starts in childhood, at school. Research has found that maths teachers who are nervous about teaching the subject can pass on their anxiety to the pupils, and girls may be more likely to be affected. The Programme for International Student Assessment found around 31% of 15 and 16-year-olds across 34 countries said they got very nervous doing maths problems, 33% said they got tense and nervous doing maths homework, and nearly 60% said they worried maths classes would be difficult. Shulamit Kahn, from Boston University’s Questrom School of Business, told the BBC she believes giving students, particularly girls, good role models “is significant, especially at a young age”. She thinks the key is to get people, especially women who love teaching maths, to teach younger children. Writing for BBC Future, David Robson says “It’s not clear why maths gives rise to so much fear compared to geography. But the fact that there’s a right or wrong answer might make you more worried about underperforming.” And once we assume we’re not a ‘maths person’, we avoid solving things that we probably could do. Psychologists (心理学家) have been trying to work out why mental calculation can bring us out in a sweat. That fear may come from many sources, but some suggest that expressing your fears clearly can loosen their hold on you, and encourage children to see a maths test as a challenge, not a threat (威胁). We need to think positively about maths and give it a second chance. 12. Regarding “maths anxiety” in paragraph 1, the author thinks ______. A. it is unique B. it is formal C. it is common D. it is necessary 13. What can be inferred from paragraph 2? A. Girls are better at maths than boys. B. Maths classes are difficult for all students. C. Students’ anxiety results entirely from teachers. D. Confidence in maths needs developing in childhood. 14. What will be a potential result if one thinks he is not a ‘maths person’? A. He will rise to challenges. B. He will learn maths harder. C. He will be doubtful about his ability. D. He will not see maths as a threat. 15. What are children advised to do according to the last paragraph? A. Track sources of maths fear regularly. B. Speak fears out for improvement bravely. C. Explore causes of failure in maths carefully. D. Quit challenges to avoid anxiety actively. 【答案】12. C 13. D 14. C 15. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讨论了数学焦虑的现象，对于学生特别是女孩，提供好的数学学习榜样非常重要，尤其是要让热爱数学教学的女性来教授年幼的孩子。此外，心理学家正在研究数学焦虑的来源，并建议通过表达恐惧来减轻其影响，鼓励孩子们将数学测试视为挑战而非威胁。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“Some people love the challenge of working out maths problems, but many fear the moment when they have to deal with numbers and figures and feel a real sense of worry. It can seem discouraging, but this ‘maths anxiety’ is perfectly normal, and you’re definitely not alone. (有些人喜欢解决数学题的挑战，但许多人害怕处理数字和数字的时刻，并感到真正的担忧。这似乎令人沮丧，但这种“数学焦虑”是完全正常的，你绝对不是一个人。)”可知，数学焦虑是非常普遍的，并且你绝对不是唯一一个感到焦虑的人。这表明作者认为数学焦虑是常见的。故选C。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中“The problem really starts in childhood, at school. Research has found that maths teachers who are nervous about teaching the subject can pass on their anxiety to the pupils, and girls may be more likely to be affected. (这个问题在儿童时期，在学校就开始了。研究发现，在教学过程中感到紧张的数学老师会把他们的焦虑传递给学生，而女孩可能更容易受到影响。)”以及“Shulamit Kahn, from Boston University’s Questrom School of Business, told the BBC she believes giving students, particularly girls, good role models “is significant, especially at a young age”. She thinks the key is to get people, especially women who love teaching maths, to teach younger children.(波士顿大学奎斯特罗姆商学院的舒拉米特·卡恩告诉BBC，她认为给学生，尤其是女孩树立好榜样‘很重要，尤其是在年轻的时候’。她认为，关键是让人们，尤其是那些热爱数学教学的女性，去教更年幼的孩子。)”可知，数学焦虑通常始于儿童时期，在学校。研究显示，数学教师的焦虑可能会传递给学生，尤其是女孩。这暗示了在儿童时期培养对数学的信心是必要的，因此波士顿大学奎斯特罗姆商学院的舒拉米特·卡恩建议尤其由那些热爱数学教学的女性，去教更年幼的孩子。D选项“Confidence in maths needs developing in childhood.(对数学的信心需要在儿童时期培养。)”与原文表达一致。故选D。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“And once we assume we’re not a ‘maths person’, we avoid solving things that we probably could do.( 一旦我们认为自己不是一个‘数学人’”，我们就会避免解决我们可能会做的事情。)”可知，一旦我们认为自己不是“数学人”，我们就会避免解决我们可能能够解决的问题。这表明，如果一个人认为自己不是数学人，他可能会对自己的能力产生怀疑。故选C。 【15题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段中“That fear may come from many sources, but some suggest that expressing your fears clearly can loosen their hold on you, and encourage children to see a maths test as a challenge, not a threat (威胁). We need to think positively about maths and give it a second chance.( 这种恐惧的来源可能有很多，但一些人认为，清楚地表达你的恐惧可以放松它们对你的控制，并鼓励孩子将数学考试视为挑战，而不是威胁。我们需要积极地看待数学，给它第二次机会。)”可知，一些心理学家建议，清晰地表达你的恐惧可以减轻它们对你的控制，鼓励孩子们将数学测试视为挑战，而不是威胁。这表明孩子们被建议勇敢地说出他们的恐惧，以求改进。故选B。 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能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 I used to think the whole purpose of life was seeking happiness. Everyone said the path to happiness was success, so I searched for that ideal job, that perfect boyfriend, and that beautiful apartment. ____16____ Eventually, I decided to go to graduate school for positive psychology (心理) to learn what truly makes people happy. And what’s the difference between being happy and having meaning in life? Many psychologists define happiness as a state of comfort and ease, feeling good at the moment. ____17____ The famous psychologist Martin Seligman says meaning comes from belonging to and serving something beyond yourself and from developing the best within you. There are four pillars (支柱) of a meaningful life. The first pillar is belonging. Belonging comes from being in relationships where you’re valued for who you are by nature and where you value others as well. ____18____ For others, the key to meaning is the second pillar: purpose. Finding your purpose is not the same thing as finding the job that makes you happy. ____19____ For example, a hospital nurse told me her purpose is helping sick people become healthy again. The third pillar of meaning is about stepping beyond yourself, but in a completely different way: transcendence (卓越). It is a state where you feel connected to a higher reality, and your sense of self fades away. The fourth pillar is storytelling, the story you tell yourself about yourself. It helps you understand how you became you. ____20____ But when life is really good and when things are really bad, having meaning gives you something to hold on to. That’s the power of meaning. A. Meaning, though, is deeper. B. Happiness comes and goes. C. The key to purpose is using your strengths to serve others. D. It’s happiness that our culture attaches great importance to. E. But instead of ever feeling happy, I felt anxious and aimless. F. Purpose motivates individuals to develop and achieve success. G. For many people, belonging is the most essential source of meaning. 【答案】16. E 17. A 18. G 19. C 20. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章说明了追求快乐对于生活的重要性，但作者认为更重要的是找寻生活本身的价值和意义。 【16题详解】 根据上文的“I used to think the whole purpose of life was seeking happiness. Everyone said the path to happiness was success, so I searched for that ideal job, that perfect boyfriend, and that beautiful apartment. (我曾经认为人生的全部目的就是追求幸福。每个人都说通往幸福的道路是成功，所以我寻找理想的工作、完美的男朋友和漂亮的公寓。)”和下文的“Eventually, I decided to go to graduate school for positive psychology to learn what truly makes people happy.(最终，我决定去读研究生学习积极心理学，去学习真正让人快乐的东西。)”可知，E项(但是，我非但没有感到快乐，反而感到焦虑和漫无目的。)与上文构成转折关系，说明了作者努力追求成功却没有带来幸福，下文指出作者为得到幸福采取的办法：去研究生院读心理学。故选E项。 【17题详解】 根据上文的“And what’s the difference between being happy and having meaning in life? Many psychologists define happiness as a state of comfort and ease, feeling good at the moment. (快乐和生活有意义之间的区别是什么？许多心理学家将快乐定义为一种舒适和安逸的状态，即此刻感觉良好。)”和下文的“The famous psychologist Martin Seligman says meaning comes from belonging to and serving something beyond yourself and from developing the best within you. There are four pillars of a meaningful life.(著名心理学家马丁·塞利格曼说，意义来自于对超越自我的事物的归属和服务，来自于发展自己最好的一面。有意义的人生有四大支柱。)”可知，A项(不过，意义是更深层次的。)承接上文，说明了意义要比快乐更重要，下文解释了意义的来源。故选A项。 【18题详解】 根据上文的“The first pillar is belonging. Belonging comes from being in relationships where you’re valued for who you are by nature and where you value others as well. (第一个支柱是归属感。归属感来自于一段关系，在这种关系中，你因自己的本性而受到重视，同时你也重视他人。)”可知，G项(对许多人来说，归属感是人生意义最重要的源泉。)承接上文，说明了作为第一个支柱的归属感的重要性，它使人们互相重视彼此。故选G项。 【19题详解】 根据上文的“For others, the key to meaning is the second pillar: purpose. Finding your purpose is not the same thing as finding the job that makes you happy.(对其他人来说，意义的关键是第二个支柱：目标。找到你的目标和找到让你快乐的工作是不一样的。)”和下文的“For example, a hospital nurse told me her purpose is helping sick people become healthy again.(例如，一位医院护士告诉我她的目标是帮助病人恢复健康。)”可知，C项(目标的关键是利用你的优势为他人服务。)承接上文，说明了目标的核心在于能够帮助别人，它不同于对快乐的体验，下文举例说明了服务他人的目标。故选C项。 【20题详解】 根据下文的“But when life is really good and when things are really bad, having meaning gives you something to hold on to. That’s the power of meaning.(但是，当生活真的很美好，当事情真的很糟糕时，拥有意义会给你一些坚持下去的东西。这就是意义的力量。)”可知，B项(幸福来了又去。)说明了幸福不会永远存在，下文指出了当幸福离开时，意义能够让你坚持下去。故选B项。 第三部分 语言知识运用（满分30分） 第一节 完形填空（共15小题；每题1分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 Sam McGee picked up the phone and phoned the number he’d called every year.

That’s ___38___ teen peer pressure is so hard for kids to resist. Studies suggest that peer pressure from a child’s friends becomes more significant during adolescence.

Thus##Therefore 42. A 43. those 44. surrounded 45 which 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。主要介绍了尽管重视个性和独立，人类，尤其是青少年，经常感到强烈的需要适应他们的同龄人。这种被接纳的渴望会导致同伴压力，尤其是在朋友的影响很大的青春期。青少年可能会从事冒险行为以获得认可和归属感。然而，同伴压力的程度取决于青少年所处的社交圈。研究表明，与表现出积极行为的同龄人在一起的青少年不太可能参与有害的活动。这凸显了与拥有相似价值观的人为伍对促进健康选择和积极未来的重要性。 【36题详解】 考查动词时态和语态。句意：他们因能够脱颖而出、开辟自己的道路和创造自己的风格而受到珍视。此处为谓语动词的填入，根据上下文时态可知，此处应为一般现在时，结合主语They和动词prize为被动关系，所以为一般现在时的被动语态结构，主语主谓一致。故填are prized。 【37题详解】 考查名词。句意：然而，在这种独创性的背后是一种根深蒂固的去融入的渴望。由空前deep-rooted为形容词可知，此处为名词形式作宾语，eagerness“渴望”，a提示单数形式。故填eagerness。 【38题详解】 考查表语从句。句意：这就是为什么孩子们很难抵抗来自同龄人的压力。空前为is系动词，空后为结构完整的句子，此处为连接词引导的表语从句，结合句意可知，应为连接副词why引导的表语从句（从句要表示结果），why在从句中作作状语成分，意为“为什么”，满足句意要求。故填why。 【39题详解】 考查形容词比较级。句意：压力变得越大，青少年被迫做的事情也变得越来越危险。根据句意以及后面的more dangerous可知，此处为形容词比较级形式和后面的more dangerous形成呼应，满足句意要求。故填greater。 【40题详解】 考查动名词。句意：随着他们的成熟和逐渐独立，获得同龄人的认可变得越来越重要。此处主句谓语为becomes，所以缺少主语，由此可知，设空处应为动名词短语作句子的主语成分。故填gaining。 【41题详解】 考查副词。句意：因此，一些青少年会跟随他们的同龄人做出不明智的选择，以感到被接受。首字母大写，根据上下句句意可知，此处为副词Thus/Therefore/So表示“因此”，满足上下句逻辑关系。故填Thus/Therefore。 【42题详解】 考查冠词。句意：《发展心理学》杂志上的一项普遍认可的研究发现，青少年和那些没有不健康行为的人在一起的可能性更小。首字母大写，根据句意以及空后study为单数名词可知，此处为表示泛指“一项研究”，结合universally为首音节辅音单词，所以为不定冠词A的填入。故填A。 【43题详解】 考查代词。句意：《发展心理学》杂志上的一项普遍认可的研究发现，青少年和那些没有不健康行为的人在一起的可能性更小。根据句意以及空前with为介词可知，此处为代词those表示“那些人”为后面的定语从句的先行词，满足句意要求。故填those。 【44题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：换句话说，青少年周围的同龄人会分享他们的价值观，不会有破坏性的行为，他们不太可能从事有害的行为，没有这些，他们就会有健康的身体和美好的未来。该句谓语为are less likely to engage，此处为非谓语动词作后置定语修饰teens，teens和surround为被动关系，所以为过去分词形式。故填surrounded。 【45题详解】 考查定语从句。句意：换句话说，青少年周围的同龄人会分享他们的价值观，不会有破坏性的行为，他们不太可能从事有害的行为，没有这些，他们就会有健康的身体和美好的未来。分析句子可知，此处为“介词+关系代词”引导的非限制性定语从句，先行词harmful acts，指物，关系词替代先行词在从句中作without的宾语成分，用关系代词which。故填which。 第四部分 单词拼写（共10 小题，每小题1 分，满分 10分） （必须使用 必修二 unit3-unit5和必修三 unit1-unit2 所学单词，每空一词） 46.

In fact, she is the record holder for the most units of blood donated in a lifetime. Michaluk’s kindness all began in 1965 at the age of 22 when she attended a blood donation event with her sister. Since then, she has been devoted to donating blood for as long as her body allows her to. Last year, at the age of 80, she officially earned the Guinness World Records title for the most whole blood donated by a female. She had donated 203 pints (品脱) of blood at that point. Thus far, she has reached a total of 209 blood donations, and she isn’t done yet. The inspiring woman continues to maintain over four donations annually. Her O+ blood type is highly desired in medical settings, as it is a more universal match than any other positive blood types. The Red Cross Donation states that O+ makes up 38% of the population in the United States. This generous woman’s contributions continue to help reinforce the supply of blood that can be life-saving. The kindhearted Canadian mentions the physical examination that is completed before any donation. This may include checking blood pressure, hemoglobin (血红蛋白) levels, and pulse rate of the potential donor. Even after donating a pint of blood, Michaluk mentions that she feels refreshed. Each donation of a pint from start to finish takes about 75 minutes. Throughout her lifetime, Michaluk has spent roughly 15, 675 minutes donating blood. She intends to go ahead to help others as long as she can. Photographed with a shirt that reads, “Are you the type to save a life?” she challenges others to step outside of their comfort zone to help people around the world. 4. What can we learn about Michaluk from the first two paragraphs? A. She donates blood for material rewards. B. She is eager to become a record holder. C. She was encouraged by her sister to donate blood. D. She will continue to donate blood if physically fit. 5. What does the underlined word “reinforce” probably mean in paragraph 3? A. Balance. B. Influence. C. Strengthen. D. Ensure. 6. What is a possible reason for mentioning how Michaluk feels in paragraph 4? A. To draw attention to the health of the elderly. B. To explain the process of physical examination. C. To prove blood donation suits people of all ages. D. To serve as an inspiration to others to donate blood. 7. What does the author think of Josephine Michaluk? A. Generous. B. Humorous. C. Talented. D. Independent. C People send messages every day on social media. These online conversations can have a huge impact and shape how societies make decisions. But there is a growing problem. Sometimes people don’t listen to each other and can say really hurtful things. Would it be better if there were an advisor in online talks? We tried to use artificial intelligence (AI) (人工智能) to carry out this task. So, we did an online experiment with pairs of people discussing a challenging topic. In the first group, one participant (参与者) in each pair had an AI helper. The AI tried to make sure the discussion was polite and respectful. It didn’t change the participant’s point of view, though! The participant could accept or refuse the suggestions or completely edit the message an AI helper offers. In the control group, the people had a conversation on the same topic but neither of the participants had an AI helper. After the discussions ended, the pairs shared their thoughts on how good the conversation was. In our study the participants accepted the AI’s suggestions two thirds of the time. When they used the AI’s suggestions, the messages became more positive and polite. Participants whose partners used the AI reported feeling better about the conversation. They were more willing to understand and respect each other, even if they still disagreed. The people who used the AI themselves didn’t report a huge change in how they felt about the conversation. However, they were more willing to respect the opinions of others! The results of our study show that AI did a good job of making online discussions polite. But you don’t need a reminder to be respectful. Even in the vast digital world, each conversation matters. Your choice to be kind and respectful can make a big difference. It can promote a culture of healthy discussion and understanding. This is also true for real-life conversations. 8. What do the underlined words “this task” in paragraph 1 probably refer to? A. Starting talks. B. Guiding conversations. C. Changing views. D. Sending messages. 9. What do we learn about participants with AI helpers? A. They responded to AI politely. B. They changed views as AI suggested. C. They tended to respect others’ views. D. They experienced mixed feelings. 10. What does the author want to stress in the last paragraph? A. The effectiveness of AI in online discussions. B. The significance of respectful communication. C. The importance of reminders in conversations. D. The balance between technologies and choices. 11. Which is the most suitable title for the text? A. Can Al remove mean posts? B. Can AI make online talks kinder? C. How to respect different opinions? D. How to reach an agreement online? D Maths is all around us, from working out how to share the bill after a meal to calculating (计算) your household bills. Some people love the challenge of working out maths problems, but many fear the moment when they have to deal with numbers and figures and feel a real sense of worry. It can seem discouraging, but this ‘maths anxiety’ is perfectly normal, and you’re definitely not alone. And anyway, our worries and fears don’t necessarily reflect our ability. The problem really starts in childhood, at school. Research has found that maths teachers who are nervous about teaching the subject can pass on their anxiety to the pupils, and girls may be more likely to be affected. The Programme for International Student Assessment found around 31% of 15 and 16-year-olds across 34 countries said they got very nervous doing maths problems, 33% said they got tense and nervous doing maths homework, and nearly 60% said they worried maths classes would be difficult. Shulamit Kahn, from Boston University’s Questrom School of Business, told the BBC she believes giving students, particularly girls, good role models “is significant, especially at a young age”. She thinks the key is to get people, especially women who love teaching maths, to teach younger children. Writing for BBC Future, David Robson says “It’s not clear why maths gives rise to so much fear compared to geography. But the fact that there’s a right or wrong answer might make you more worried about underperforming.” And once we assume we’re not a ‘maths person’, we avoid solving things that we probably could do. Psychologists (心理学家) have been trying to work out why mental calculation can bring us out in a sweat. That fear may come from many sources, but some suggest that expressing your fears clearly can loosen their hold on you, and encourage children to see a maths test as a challenge, not a threat (威胁). We need to think positively about maths and give it a second chance. 12. Regarding “maths anxiety” in paragraph 1, the author thinks ______. A. it is unique B. it is formal C. it is common D. it is necessary 13. What can be inferred from paragraph 2? A. Girls are better at maths than boys. B. Maths classes are difficult for all students. C Students’ anxiety results entirely from teachers. D. Confidence in maths needs developing in childhood. 14. What will be a potential result if one thinks he is not a ‘maths person’? A. He will rise to challenges. B. He will learn maths harder. C. He will be doubtful about his ability. D. He will not see maths as a threat. 15. What are children advised to do according to the last paragraph? A Track sources of maths fear regularly. B. Speak fears out for improvement bravely. C. Explore causes of failure in maths carefully. D. Quit challenges to avoid anxiety actively. 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能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 I used to think the whole purpose of life was seeking happiness. Everyone said the path to happiness was success, so I searched for that ideal job, that perfect boyfriend, and that beautiful apartment. ____16____ Eventually, I decided to go to graduate school for positive psychology (心理) to learn what truly makes people happy. And what’s the difference between being happy and having meaning in life? Many psychologists define happiness as a state of comfort and ease, feeling good at the moment. ____17____ The famous psychologist Martin Seligman says meaning comes from belonging to and serving something beyond yourself and from developing the best within you. There are four pillars (支柱) of a meaningful life. The first pillar is belonging. Belonging comes from being in relationships where you’re valued for who you are by nature and where you value others as well. ____18____ For others, the key to meaning is the second pillar: purpose. Finding your purpose is not the same thing as finding the job that makes you happy. ____19____ For example, a hospital nurse told me her purpose is helping sick people become healthy again. The third pillar of meaning is about stepping beyond yourself, but in a completely different way: transcendence (卓越). It is a state where you feel connected to a higher reality, and your sense of self fades away. The fourth pillar is storytelling, the story you tell yourself about yourself. It helps you understand how you became you. ____20____ But when life is really good and when things are really bad, having meaning gives you something to hold on to. That’s the power of meaning. A. Meaning, though, is deeper. B. Happiness comes and goes. C. The key to purpose is using your strengths to serve others. D. It’s happiness that our culture attaches great importance to. E. But instead of ever feeling happy, I felt anxious and aimless. F. Purpose motivates individuals to develop and achieve success. G. For many people, belonging is the most essential source of meaning. 第三部分 语言知识运用（满分30分） 第一节 完形填空（共15小题；每题1分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 Sam McGee picked up the phone and phoned the number he’d called every year.
