Grammar and vocabulary Section A Directions:After reading the passage below, fill in the blanks to make the passage coherent and grammatically correct. For the blanks with a given word, fill in each blank with the proper form of the given word; for the other blanks, use one word that best fits each blank. Myths and Facts about Growing Taller As soon as they walk into a room, tall people command attention. They also enjoy some advantages, such as ___1___ (consider) attractive (especially for men). Tall people also tend to have higher status jobs and consequently earn more money than others. It’s no wonder that many young people are concerned about growing as tall as possible. There are many myths about growth and height in circulation, though, so let’s examine them and find out the truth. Myth: A person’s height is completely determined by genes. Fact: Genes do play a role, ___2___ (determine) about 60 to 80 percent of a person’s height. But the rest is influenced by environmental factors, of which nutrition during childhood is ___3___ (important). Without enough vitamins, minerals, and protein, children do not become as tall as their genes would allow. Myth: Caffeine stops children from growing. Fact: Drinking normal amounts of coffee won’t affect growth. A child or teenager can have a cup of coffee or tea ___4___ no ill effects on height. However, Overconsumption of caffeine may negatively affect growth because it interferes with sleep, ___5___ is when most growth happens. Myth: Stretching or hanging upside down can make you taller. Fact: It’s not clear ___6___this is true or not. Some evidence indicates that stretching can increase height while one ___7___ (grow). But this doesn’t work ___8___one is fully grown. Hanging upside down makes one taller temporarily, but this may not make a lasting difference. Understanding ___9___ growth happens can help people make decisions. For young people who are still growing, a healthy diet is the best way for them to maximize their height. Adults past their early 20s don’t have many ways to permanently change their height. They have to rely on measures like tall shoes, inserts and certain types of clothing. But remember that ____10____ you’re not as tall as you would like, your character and choices are more important. Section B Directions: Fill in each blank with a proper word chosen from the box. Each word can be used only once. Note that there is one word more than you need. A. sense B. dominate C. ignore D. emotional E. trends F. combined G. motivation H. bonding I. associated J. grateful K. feature Remember when ... Do you ever find yourself looking back on earlier times, remembering happy moments from the past? Nostalgia, the feeling ___11___ with remembering happiness in the past, is often described as bittersweet. It is bitter because you long for things that are no more but sweet as you enjoy remembering your past happiness. Some psychologists even distinguish positive nostalgia from negative nostalgia, depending on whether happy emotions or sad ones ___12___ a person’s experience. In today’s culture, expressions of nostalgia are becoming common. People share old social media posts remembering the good old days. They buy products made years ago from secondhand stores and enjoy media that reminds them of their childhoods. Taking note of these ___13___ companies are offering products like those of earlier decades. Social media platforms offer filters that can make pictures look like old photographs. Some restaurants are even putting together menus that ___14___ some dishes from the 1970s. And the fact that people are buying all these products shows that those people want to experience nostalgia. This desire for nostalgia makes a lot of ___15___ because this feeling has psychological benefits. It can improve a person’s mood and self-esteem (自我价值感), sometimes helping people handle difficult transitions in life. It can also help people connect with others as they share memories. But nostalgia can also lead to ___16___ problems. Focusing on the past can make people less satisfied with the present and make it harder to find ___17___ to improve their current situation. Nostalgia can also lead people to view earlier stages of life with rose-colored glasses. They may forget about or ___18___ past hardships, thinking only about the positive side of things. How can you find a balance, remembering the past without letting it interfere with the present? Start by making a conscious effort to recognize and be ___19___ for the positives in your current situation. While remembering the past, focus on lessons you’ve learned and ways you’ve grown and changed over the years. And share these memories with others to deepen relationships by learning more about each other or ___20___ over shared experiences. Nostalgia can bring many benefits to individuals and to communities, but we all must remain cautious of its potential downsides. II. Reading Comprehension Section A Directions: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context. You’re a planner. You have your calendar color-coded, dinner reservations booked a month ___21___, and you know exactly what you’ll be doing on your next vacation. You meet someone who’s all about “going with the flow,” a non-planner who seldom makes a to-do list. Can a planner and a non-planner live together happily? The short answer is yes. But both need to ___22___ and meet halfway. It’s important to note that many successful relationships involve ___23___. Planners bring structure, ___24___ and the comfort of predictability. Non-planners bring flexibility, adaptability and ways to handle the unexpected. It’s no surprise that good communication is key in any relationship, especially between planners and free spirits. Planners may long for a sense of order and ___25___ about what’s coming up, while the non-planners prefer going with the moment. This doesn’t have to be a source of ___26___. Instead, it can be an opportunity to discuss expectations openly. While it’s true that no one should have to change their ___27___ to make a relationship work, compromise (妥协) can help. Rather than expecting anyone to ___28___ adopt the other’s way of doing things, consider finding a middle ground. For example, maybe the planner takes charge of the essentials, like booking a hotel for a weekend getaway, while the non-planner is free to suggest day-of activities ___29___ what feels right in the moment. Planners might discover that they actually enjoy a touch of the unexpected. While unplanned moments can feel unsettling, they often lead to ____30____ experiences. Planners may also realize that they’re less ____31____ if they can let go a little, especially for small things. ____32____, non-planners may see planning isn’t so bad. Having a few things set up can feel easier. And for big decisions, it’s reassuring to have a(n) ____33____ partner. Even with understanding and compromise, your differences will sometimes ____34____ each other. When that happens, take a step back and remember what you appreciate about your partner’s style. These moments are normal -- they can actually ____35____ the strengths each of you bring to the partnership. So, can opposites work? Yes, if you respect each other, stay open-minded, and find balance. The best relationships often are the ones that challenge us to see things from a new perspective. 21. A. in advance B. in person C. in detail D. in secret 22. A. justify B. guarantee C. adapt D. intervene 23. A. comments B. expectations C. sacrifices D. opposites 24.

Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read. (A) In October 1989 Alaa Murabit, the middle child of 11, was born in a Canadian home to an immigrant family from Libya in Africa. Her younger years were filled with fun and kindness. Her supportive parents treated her and her siblings with equality and fairness. Her father emphasized the importance of education and gender equality, which greatly influenced her views on social justice. Growing up with so many brothers and sisters, she learned to focus, negotiate and talk fast, or she wouldn’t get a chance to do anything. Most importantly, she learned that it was necessary to have a seat at the table to defend yourself. For example, if a lamp broke while you were away and couldn’t explain what happened, you might get grounded as punishment. An extremely gifted girl, Alaa graduated from high school at age 15. After that, the family moved to her parents’ hometown in Libya. The following year she began studying at the College of Medicine at Al Zawiya University in Libya, graduating in 2013. In the midst of her medical studies, civil war broke out in Libya in February 2011. It wasn’t until then, at age 21, that Murabit sensed a cultural shift as women were given a seat at the table. They were finally involved in decision-making and information-sharing to help deal with the war happening around them. But, when political leaders convinced women to go back to their old roles, many lost their chance to have a say in important matters. It was then that Murabit founded The Voice of Libyan Women, a national organization to advance women’s rights. The organization works to improve political participation and empower women economically. Additionally, she helps to promote security for all, create strategies for establishing and maintaining peace and encourages faith-supported peacebuilding. Following medical school, Murabit went on to receive a master’s degree from the London School of Economics while continuing to push for women’s rights. She talked in schools and homes and put up posters and signboards around the country promoting those rights. She fights not only for women but also for the health of the world. Dr. Murabit’s leadership helped to shape the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in 2015, impacting billions of people for the better. 36 What important lesson did Alaa learn from growing up in a large family? A. The right to defend oneself. B. The importance of strict discipline. C. The value of avoiding conflict. D. The necessity of quick decision-making. 37. What major event pushed Alaa to found The Voice of Libyan Women? A. Her early graduation from high school at age 15. B. The outbreak of civil war in Libya in 2011. C. Her medical studies at Al Zawiya University. D. Her move to London for a master’s degree. 38. What is a primary goal of The Voice of Libyan Women? A. To provide free medical care in war zones. B. To promote women’s return to previous roles. C. To encourage women to say no to traditional faith. D. To increase women’s political and economic participation. 39. Which best describes Murabit’s approach to creating change? A Defending the traditional systems. B. Combining grassroots action with global policy. C. Rejecting all religious involvement in peacebuilding. D. Prioritizing academic research over community engagement.

(C) Everything Must Be Paid for Twice One financial lesson they should teach in school is that most of the things we buy have to be paid for twice There’s the first price, usually paid in dollars, just to gain possession of the desired thing, whatever it is: a book, a budgeting app, a unicycle. But then, in order to make use of the thing, you must also pay a second price. This is the effort and initiative required to gain its benefits, and it can be much higher than the first price. A new novel, for example, might require twenty dollars for its first price — and ten hours of dedicated reading time for its second. Only when the second price is being paid do you see any return on the first one. Paying only the first price is about the same as throwing money in the garbage. In pre-consumer societies, people focused less on acquiring things and more on mastering their use — consistently putting tools to work. The miracle of industrialization has lowered first prices dramatically. Yet technology also creates endless buying options. Here’s the cruel truth: no matter how many gym memberships you buy or classics you collect, your daily 24 hours don’t expand. Their potential remains “unredeemed” until you pay the second price — your consistent effort. I believe this is one reason our modern lifestyles can feel unsatisfying sometimes. In our search for fulfillment, we keep paying first prices, creating a correspondingly enormous debt of unpaid second prices. Yet the real value of any purchase stays locked up until both prices are paid. This feeling of not having enough leads to a big problem: we automatically spend too much time on easy entertainment-like phone apps, streaming services, and fast food — even though they don’t really make us much happier than doing nothing. We choose these things because they’re simple and require little effort, but they waste lots of time. This leaves us with even less energy for more important things. The best solution is simple: stop buying unnecessary things, and focus on using what you already have. This way, you can finally enjoy all those books, gadgets, and items you own but never used. Paying the effort cost may seem hard at first, but you’ll grow to love it. It’s like walking through an unknown forest — each step in the unmapped wilderness is challenging, yet full of life. When you reach the other side, the forest becomes part of you, making you stronger. 43. What is the author’s primary argument about modern consumption? A. Technology has significantly reduced product prices. B. A return to pre-industrial lifestyles could restore balance. C. True value requires both financial cost and personal effort. D. Excessive product variety often leads to dissatisfaction. 44. The underlined word “unredeemed” in paragraph 5 is closest to ______. A. returned for money back B. damaged beyond repair C. priced too high D. not yet realized or claimed 45. According to the passage, why do people prefer easy entertainment? A. They cost less money than meaningful activities. B. They usually require little effort to engage with. C. They are advertised everywhere aggressively. D. They are more accessible than complex alternatives. 46 What does the “unknown forest” metaphor in the last paragraph suggest about paying second prices? A. It’s better to follow paths others have made. B. One needs special support to achieve success. C. The difficulty leads to personal transformation. D. The process is dangerous and should be avoided. Section C Directions: Read the passage carefully. Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box. Each sentence can be used only once. Note that there are two more sentences than you need. Study with Me On social media, people share knowledge through videos — from piano lessons to computer repair. When seeking answers, many turn to YouTube, including those struggling with studying. That’s where Study with Me (SWM) videos come into play. In Korea, the popular videos are called “gongbang,” which means Study Broadcast. In Japan, they’re called “benkyou douga,” and in America and other countries, they’re called Study with Me. ______47______ Students create and share videos of themselves studying attentively, usually for an exam. The camera often focuses on a clean desk with a tidy display of books, notebooks, a computer and a timer. Throughout most of the videos, no words are spoken; the focus is on the creator as he or she studies. The point is not to teach anything but simply to provide a study companion. ______48______ Financial site Business Insider says this type of video “serves a real purpose, helping people focus.” The Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology performed research on Study with Me videos and discovered several benefits. First, people can set up quiet study areas in their homes to view the videos. This cuts down on their commute to libraries or established study rooms. ______49______ Finally, viewers gain emotional support by knowing that they are part of a group with perhaps thousands of others, all working toward the same goal. Some viewers have said that Study with Me “satisfies the need for belonging and social contact” by providing a sense of companionship. ______50______ Some SWM livestreams, where viewers can chat with each other in real time, feel like online study groups. This helps create a satisfactory study environment where students can find the inspiration they need to stay on task. A. Next, observing the diligence of the creator often motivates viewers, especially those who have trouble studying. B. No matter what their names are, millions of viewers have joined the SWM craze. C. Moreover, with teachers answering questions and facilitating discussions, the learning atmosphere becomes highly engaging. D. The creator becomes a study mate, which reduces the isolation many students feel. E. Are SWM cideos just “lazy content,” or are they beneficial? F. Yet others point out that such peer-driven pressure can leave viewers feeling tense and uneasy. III. Summary Writing 51. Directions: Read the following passage. Summarize the main idea and the main point(s) of the passage in no more than 60 words. Use your own words as far as possible. Dengue fever (登革热) As the world becomes more connected, ideas and technologies can spread rapidly from one country or even one continent to another. But the flip side of this is that diseases can also spread to new areas that do not have special ways in preventing and curing them. One example of this is dengue fever. The number of cases of this mosquito-borne illness has increased dramatically in recent years, including in places that previously had few to none. Dengue fever is most common in tropical and subtropical climates and is carried by two species of mosquito. People contract dengue from mosquito bites. There is no specific treatment for dengue fever. People with mild symptoms can manage them with some pain medications. As with most illnesses, resting and drinking plenty of liquids can also help speed recovery. Those who develop severe dengue, however, usually need to be hospitalized. The recent increase in cases of dengue fever results from a combination of influencing factors, including the species of mosquito that carry the disease spreading to new areas. Warm wet weather has also contributed to its rise since this creates conditions where mosquitoes can multiply. There are four main types of the dengue virus. People can get it more than once if they are infected by a different type. The main way to prevent dengue fever from spreading is to avoid being bitten by mosquitoes. This means wearing long-sleeved shirts and long pants, keeping windows closed and/or sleeping under mosquito nets. Mosquitoes breed in non-flowing water, so finding ways to avoid letting water pool can help. If water storage containers are needed, they should be covered and cleaned regularly to avoid becoming breeding grounds for mosquitoes. Taking action to stop its spread can help stop it from becoming a bigger problem. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ IV.

But both need to ___22___ and meet halfway. It’s important to note that many successful relationships involve ___23___. Planners bring structure, ___24___ and the comfort of predictability.

Instead, it can be an opportunity to discuss expectations openly. While it’s true that no one should have to change their ___27___ to make a relationship work, compromise (妥协) can help. Rather than expecting anyone to ___28___ adopt the other’s way of doing things, consider finding a middle ground.

Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read. (A) In October 1989, Alaa Murabit, the middle child of 11, was born in a Canadian home to an immigrant family from Libya in Africa. Her younger years were filled with fun and kindness. Her supportive parents treated her and her siblings with equality and fairness. Her father emphasized the importance of education and gender equality, which greatly influenced her views on social justice. Growing up with so many brothers and sisters, she learned to focus, negotiate and talk fast, or she wouldn’t get a chance to do anything. Most importantly, she learned that it was necessary to have a seat at the table to defend yourself. For example, if a lamp broke while you were away and couldn’t explain what happened, you might get grounded as punishment. An extremely gifted girl, Alaa graduated from high school at age 15. After that, the family moved to her parents’ hometown in Libya. The following year she began studying at the College of Medicine at Al Zawiya University in Libya, graduating in 2013. In the midst of her medical studies, civil war broke out in Libya in February 2011. It wasn’t until then, at age 21, that Murabit sensed a cultural shift as women were given a seat at the table. They were finally involved in decision-making and information-sharing to help deal with the war happening around them. But, when political leaders convinced women to go back to their old roles, many lost their chance to have a say in important matters. It was then that Murabit founded The Voice of Libyan Women, a national organization to advance women’s rights. The organization works to improve political participation and empower women economically. Additionally, she helps to promote security for all, create strategies for establishing and maintaining peace and encourages faith-supported peacebuilding. Following medical school, Murabit went on to receive a master’s degree from the London School of Economics while continuing to push for women’s rights. She talked in schools and homes and put up posters and signboards around the country promoting those rights. She fights not only for women but also for the health of the world. Dr. Murabit’s leadership helped to shape the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in 2015, impacting billions of people for the better. 36. What important lesson did Alaa learn from growing up in a large family? A. The right to defend oneself. B. The importance of strict discipline. C. The value of avoiding conflict. D. The necessity of quick decision-making. 37. What major event pushed Alaa to found The Voice of Libyan Women? A. Her early graduation from high school at age 15. B. The outbreak of civil war in Libya in 2011. C. Her medical studies at Al Zawiya University. D Her move to London for a master’s degree. 38. What is a primary goal of The Voice of Libyan Women? A. To provide free medical care in war zones. B. To promote women’s return to previous roles. C. To encourage women to say no to traditional faith. D. To increase women’s political and economic participation. 39. Which best describes Murabit’s approach to creating change? A. Defending the traditional systems. B. Combining grassroots action with global policy. C. Rejecting all religious involvement in peacebuilding. D. Prioritizing academic research over community engagement. 【答案】36. A 37. B 38. D 39. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文,主要讲述了利比亚裔加拿大女性Alaa Murabit的生平事迹,包括她在大家庭中成长的经历、教育背景,以及她在利比亚内战期间创立“利比亚女性之声”组织、推动女性权利和全球健康的努力。 【36题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“Most importantly, she learned that it was necessary to have a seat at the table to defend yourself.(最重要的是,她学会了在桌边占有一席之地来为自己辩护是必要的。)”可推知,Alaa从大家庭中学到的关键教训是捍卫自身权利的重要性。故选A。 【37题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“In the midst of her medical studies, civil war broke out in Libya in February 2011.

They were finally involved in decision-making and information-sharing to help deal with the war happening around them. But, when political leaders convinced women to go back to their old roles, many lost their chance to have a say in important matters. It was then that Murabit founded The Voice of Libyan Women, a national organization to advance women’s rights.(在她攻读医学期间,2011年2月利比亚爆发了内战。直到那时,21岁的穆拉比特才感觉到文化的转变,因为女性在餐桌上有了一席之地。他们最终参与决策和信息共享,以帮助应对周围发生的战争。但是,当政治领导人说服妇女回到原来的角色时,许多人失去了在重要事务上发表意见的机会。就在那时,穆拉比特创立了“利比亚妇女之声”,这是一个促进妇女权利的全国性组织。)”可推知,内战爆发是促使她创立组织的直接事件。故选B。 【38题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“The organization works to improve political participation and empower women economically.(该组织致力于改善政治参与和经济赋权女性。)”可推知,组织的主要目标是提升女性的政治和经济参与度。故选D。 【39题详解】 推理判断题。根据第五段“She talked in schools and homes and put up posters and signboards around the country promoting those rights.(她在学校和家庭演讲,并在全国各地张贴海报和招牌,宣传这些权利。)”和第六段“Dr. Murabit’s leadership helped to shape the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals(Murabit博士的领导力帮助塑造了联合国可持续发展目标)”可推知,她的变革方法结合了基层行动(如社区宣传)和全球政策(如联合国目标)。故选B。 (B) Helping keep seniors safe and connected ADT Medical Alert systems are built for every senior’s lifestyle, whether they stay close to home or like to venture out.

There’s the first price, usually paid in dollars, just to gain possession of the desired thing, whatever it is: a book, a budgeting app, a unicycle. But then, in order to make use of the thing, you must also pay a second price. This is the effort and initiative required to gain its benefits, and it can be much higher than the first price. A new novel for example, might require twenty dollars for its first price — and ten hours of dedicated reading time for its second. Only when the second price is being paid do you see any return on the first one. Paying only the first price is about the same as throwing money in the garbage. In pre-consumer societies, people focused less on acquiring things and more on mastering their use — consistently putting tools to work. The miracle of industrialization has lowered first prices dramatically. Yet technology also creates endless buying options. Here’s the cruel truth: no matter how many gym memberships you buy or classics you collect, your daily 24 hours don’t expand. Their potential remains “unredeemed” until you pay the second price — your consistent effort. I believe this is one reason our modern lifestyles can feel unsatisfying sometimes. In our search for fulfillment, we keep paying first prices, creating a correspondingly enormous debt of unpaid second prices. Yet the real value of any purchase stays locked up until both prices are paid. This feeling of not having enough leads to a big problem: we automatically spend too much time on easy entertainment-like phone apps, streaming services, and fast food — even though they don’t really make us much happier than doing nothing. We choose these things because they’re simple and require little effort, but they waste lots of time. This leaves us with even less energy for more important things. The best solution is simple: stop buying unnecessary things, and focus on using what you already have. This way, you can finally enjoy all those books, gadgets, and items you own but never used. Paying the effort cost may seem hard at first, but you’ll grow to love it. It’s like walking through an unknown forest — each step in the unmapped wilderness is challenging, yet full of life. When you reach the other side, the forest becomes part of you, making you stronger. 43. What is the author’s primary argument about modern consumption? A. Technology has significantly reduced product prices. B. A return to pre-industrial lifestyles could restore balance. C. True value requires both financial cost and personal effort. D. Excessive product variety often leads to dissatisfaction. 44. The underlined word “unredeemed” in paragraph 5 is closest to ______. A. returned for money back B. damaged beyond repair C. priced too high D. not yet realized or claimed 45. According to the passage, why do people prefer easy entertainment? A. They cost less money than meaningful activities. B. They usually require little effort to engage with. C. They are advertised everywhere aggressively. D. They are more accessible than complex alternatives. 46. What does the “unknown forest” metaphor in the last paragraph suggest about paying second prices? A. It’s better to follow paths others have made. B. One needs special support to achieve success. C. The difficulty leads to personal transformation. D. The process is dangerous and should be avoided. 【答案】43. C 44. D 45. B 46. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章指出我们购买的东西通常要付两次代价,真正的价值需要经济成本和个人努力,现代消费中人们常忽视后者,还给出了解决办法。 【43题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“There’s the first price, usually paid in dollars, just to gain possession of the desired thing, whatever it is: a book, a budgeting app, a unicycle. But then, in order to make use of the thing, you must also pay a second price. This is the effort and initiative required to gain its benefits, and it can be much higher than the first price.(有第一个价格,通常用美元支付,只是为了获得想要的东西,不管是什么:一本书、一个预算应用程序、一辆独轮车。但为了使用这个东西,你还必须支付第二个价格。这是获得其好处所需的努力和主动性,而且它可能比第一个价格高得多)”以及后文多次强调真正价值需要支付两次代价可知,作者关于现代消费的主要观点是真正的价值需要经济成本和个人努力。故选C项。 【44题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线词所在句“Their potential remains ‘unredeemed’ until you pay the second price — your consistent effort.(它们的潜在可能性仍然‘unredeemed’,直到你支付第二个价格——你持续的努力)”和前文提到购买了东西但不付出努力就无法获得其价值可推知,“unredeemed”意思是“还未实现或获得”,D项与“not yet realized or claimed”同义。故选D项。 【45题详解】 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“This feeling of not having enough leads to a big problem: we automatically spend too much time on easy entertainment-like phone apps, streaming services, and fast food — even though they don’t really make us much happier than doing nothing. We choose these things because they’re simple and require little effort, but they waste lots of time.(这种“不够用”的感觉导致了一个大问题:我们自然而然地把太多时间花在简单的娱乐上——比如手机应用程序、流媒体服务和快餐——尽管它们并不比什么都不做更让我们快乐。我们选择这些东西是因为它们简单,需要很少的努力,但它们浪费了很多时间)”可知,人们更喜欢轻松的娱乐是因为参与其中通常需要很少的努力。故选B项。 【46题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Paying the effort cost may seem hard at first, but you’ll grow to love it. It’s like walking through an unknown forest — each step in the unmapped wilderness is challenging, yet full of life. When you reach the other side, the forest becomes part of you, making you stronger.(一开始付出努力的代价可能看起来很难,但你会逐渐喜欢上它。这就像穿过一片未知的森林——在未被绘制地图的荒野中每一步都充满挑战,但又充满生机。当你到达另一边时,森林就成为了你的一部分,让你变得更强大)”可知,“未知的森林”这个比喻暗示付出第二次代价时,困难会带来个人的转变,让你变得更强大。故选C项。 Section C Directions: Read the passage carefully. Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box. Each sentence can be used only once. Note that there are two more sentences than you need. Study with Me On social media, people share knowledge through videos — from piano lessons to computer repair. When seeking answers, many turn to YouTube, including those struggling with studying. That’s where Study with Me (SWM) videos come into play. In Korea, the popular videos are called “gongbang,” which means Study Broadcast. In Japan, they’re called “benkyou douga,” and in America and other countries, they’re called Study with Me. ______47______ Students create and share videos of themselves studying attentively usually for an exam. The camera often focuses on a clean desk with a tidy display of books, notebooks, a computer and a timer. Throughout most of the videos, no words are spoken; the focus is on the creator as he or she studies. The point is not to teach anything but simply to provide a study companion. ______48______ Financial site Business Insider says this type of video “serves a real purpose, helping people focus.” The Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology performed research on Study with Me videos and discovered several benefits. First, people can set up quiet study areas in their homes to view the videos. This cuts down on their commute to libraries or established study rooms. ______49______ Finally, viewers gain emotional support by knowing that they are part of a group with perhaps thousands of others, all working toward the same goal. Some viewers have said that Study with Me “satisfies the need for belonging and social contact” by providing a sense of companionship. ______50______ Some SWM livestreams, where viewers can chat with each other in real time, feel like online study groups. This helps create a satisfactory study environment where students can find the inspiration they need to stay on task. A. Next, observing the diligence of the creator often motivates viewers, especially those who have trouble studying. B. No matter what their names are, millions of viewers have joined the SWM craze. C. Moreover, with teachers answering questions and facilitating discussions, the learning atmosphere becomes highly engaging. D. The creator becomes a study mate, which reduces the isolation many students feel. E. Are SWM cideos just “lazy content,” or are they beneficial? F. Yet others point out that such peer-driven pressure can leave viewers feeling tense and uneasy. 【答案】47. B 48. E 49. A 50. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。本文介绍了“和我一起学习(SWM)”视频的形式、作用及相关研究发现的益处。 【47题详解】 上文“In Korea, the popular videos are called “gongbang,” which means Study Broadcast. In Japan, they’re called “benkyou douga,” and in America and other countries, they’re called Study with Me. (在韩国,这类流行视频被称为“学习直播”,在日本,它们被称作“学习视频”,而在美国和其他国家,人们则将其称为“和我一起学习”)”可知,本段列举了不同国家对SWM视频的不同称呼,空处需承接上文,总结不同名称下的共同现象。B选项“无论它们叫什么名字,数百万观众都加入了SWM热潮”通过“No matter what their names are”衔接前文的名称差异,“millions of viewers”引出其流行程度,符合语境。故选B。 【48题详解】 下文“Financial site Business Insider says this type of video “serves a real purpose, helping people focus.” (金融网站《商业内幕》称,这类视频“确实有用,能帮助人们集中注意力”。)”指出SWM视频的实际作用,而空处需引出对其价值的探讨。E选项“SWM 视频只是‘懒惰的内容’,还是有益的?”以疑问句形式引发思考,既呼应后文对其益处的说明,又通过“or are they beneficial”自然过渡到下文,适合作段落主旨句。故选E。 【49题详解】 上文“First, people can set up quiet study areas in their homes to view the videos. (首先,人们可以在家中设立安静的学习区域来观看这些视频)”介绍了研究发现的第一个益处,下文“Finally, viewers gain emotional support by knowing that they are part of a group with perhaps thousands of others, all working toward the same goal. (最后,观众会获得情感支持,因为他们知道自己属于一个可能由成千上万的人组成的群体,所有人都在朝着同一个目标努力)”为第三个益处,空处需补充第二个益处。A选项“其次,观察创作者的勤奋往往能激励观众,尤其是那些在学习上有困难的人。”对应研究中的具体好处,符合逻辑顺序。故选A。 【50题详解】 上文“Finally, viewers gain emotional support by knowing that they are part of a group with perhaps thousands of others, all working toward the same goal. Some viewers have said that Study with Me “satisfies the need for belonging and social contact” by providing a sense of companionship. (最后,观众知道自己属于一个可能由成千上万的人组成的群体,所有人都在朝着同一个目标努力,这让他们获得了情感支持。一些观众表示,“和我一起学习” 视频通过提供一种陪伴感,“满足了归属感和社交接触的需求”)”可知,强调了SWM视频带来的陪伴感和情感支持。D选项“创作者成为了学习伙伴,这减少了许多学生感受到的孤独感。”进一步解释这种陪伴如何减少孤独感,其中“study mate”和“reduces the isolation”直接呼应前文的“companionship”和“need for belonging”,符合语境。故选D。 III. Summary Writing 51. Directions: Read the following passage. Summarize the main idea and the main point(s) of the passage in no more than 60 words. Use your own words as far as possible. Dengue fever (登革热) As the world becomes more connected, ideas and technologies can spread rapidly from one country or even one continent to another. But the flip side of this is that diseases can also spread to new areas that do not have special ways in preventing and curing them. One example of this is dengue fever. The number of cases of this mosquito-borne illness has increased dramatically in recent years, including in places that previously had few to none. Dengue fever is most common in tropical and subtropical climates and is carried by two species of mosquito. People contract dengue from mosquito bites. There is no specific treatment for dengue fever. People with mild symptoms can manage them with some pain medications. As with most illnesses, resting and drinking plenty of liquids can also help speed recovery. Those who develop severe dengue, however, usually need to be hospitalized. The recent increase in cases of dengue fever results from a combination of influencing factors, including the species of mosquito that carry the disease spreading to new areas. Warm wet weather has also contributed to its rise since this creates conditions where mosquitoes can multiply. There are four main types of the dengue virus. People can get it more than once if they are infected by a different type. The main way to prevent dengue fever from spreading is to avoid being bitten by mosquitoes. This means wearing long-sleeved shirts and long pants, keeping windows closed and/or sleeping under mosquito nets. Mosquitoes breed in non-flowing water, so finding ways to avoid letting water pool can help. If water storage containers are needed, they should be covered and cleaned regularly to avoid becoming breeding grounds for mosquitoes. Taking action to stop its spread can help stop it from becoming a bigger problem. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 Dengue fever, a mosquito-borne disease, has seen a dramatic increase recently, spreading to new areas due to global connectivity and warm wet weather that enables mosquito multiplication. With four virus types, people can be infected multiple times. Lacking specific treatment, severe cases require hospitalization. Prevention includes avoiding mosquito bites and keeping water from pooling to prevent breeding. 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍登革热传播、特点、成因及预防措施。 【详解】1.要点摘录 ① Dengue fever, a mosquito-borne disease, has increased dramatically in recent years, spreading to new areas. ② Dengue fever is common in tropical and subtropical climates, carried by two mosquito species, with no specific treatment. ③ The recent increase in dengue fever cases is due to mosquito migration and warm wet weather. ④ There are four types of dengue virus, allowing multiple infections. ⑤ Prevention includes avoiding mosquito bites and preventing water from pooling. 2.缜密构思 将第①、③点整合,说明登革热的传播情况和原因;将第②、④点整合,说明登革热的特点和感染情况;最后单独列出第⑤点,作为预防措施。 3.遣词造句 Dengue fever, a mosquito-borne disease, has spread to new areas due to global connectivity and warm wet weather, causing a dramatic increase in cases. 【点睛】【高分句型1】Dengue fever, a mosquito-borne disease, has seen a dramatic increase recently, spreading to new areas due to global connectivity and warm wet weather that enables mosquito multiplication. 运用了that引导的定语从句,现在分词作状语,对原文第一段和第三段进行了概括,表达高级。 【高分句型2】Prevention includes avoiding mosquito bites and keeping water from pooling to prevent breeding. 运用了动名词短语avoiding mosquito bites and keeping water from pooling to prevent breeding作宾语,对原文第四段进行了概括,表达高级。 IV. Translation Directions: Translate the following sentences into English, using the words given in the brackets. 52. 委员会要求在截止日期前提交所有的相关文件。(demand) (汉译英) _______________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】The committee demands that all relevant documents be submitted before the deadline. 【解析】 【详解】考查时态,从句和虚拟语气。“委员会” 表达为 The committee ,视为单数;“要求” 用 demand,此处表示“要求某事被做”,demand 后接宾语从句要用虚拟语气,即(should)+ 动词原形,should 可省略;“相关文件” 是 relevant documents ;“提交” 用 submit,文件是 “被提交”,要用被动语态 be submitted ;“截止日期前” 表达为 before the deadline 。句子陈述一般情况,用一般现在时,主语 committee 为单数,demand 用第三人称单数形式 demands。故译为 The committee demands that all relevant documents be submitted before the deadline. 53. 儿童接触二手烟的程度会直接影响其肺功能。(expose) (汉译英) _______________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】The degree to which children are exposed to second-hand smoke directly affects their lung function. 【解析】 【详解】考查动词短语、时态、定语从句。句子陈述客观事实,时态用一般现在时,且句子为主从复合句,主句主语“程度”译为the degree,其后接定语从句“儿童接触二手烟”,“接触”用固定短语be exposed to,“二手烟”译为second-hand smoke;修饰先行词the degree,且关系词在从句中作介词to的宾语,所以用关系代词which,构成“介词+ 关系代词”引导的定语从句,因此定语从句为to which children are exposed to second-hand smoke,相当于children are exposed to second-hand smoke to the degree;主句谓语“影响”用动词affect,主语the degree为第三人称单数,所以谓语动词用第三人称单数形式,“直接”用副词directly作状语修饰谓语,宾语“其肺功能”译为their lung function。句首单词首字母大写。故翻译为The degree to which children are exposed to second-hand smoke directly affects their lung function. 54. 正是电影主人公那股永不言弃的精神,让他彻底打消了辍学的念头。(It) (汉译英) _______________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】It was the never-give-up spirit of the movie’s protagonist that completely dispelled his idea of dropping out of school. 【解析】 【详解】考查动词、名词和强调句。句子陈述过去情况,这里时态应用一般过去时;表示“电影主人公那股永不言弃的精神”应用the never-give-up spirit of the movie’s protagonist,为名词短语,在本句中作主语;表示“让他彻底打消了辍学的念头”应用completely dispelled his idea of dropping out of school,其中completely(彻底地),为副词作状语,dispel(消除)使用过去式,为谓语动词, his idea of dropping out of school(辍学的念头),为名词短语作宾语;表示“正是”应用it was...that,为强调句型,对主语the never-give-up spirit of the movie’s protagonist强调。故翻译为It was the never-give-up spirit of the movie’s protagonist that completely dispelled his idea of dropping out of school. 55. 尽管人工智能生成的内容能大大提高工作效率,但同时也需要使用者具别对错和批判性思考的能力。(require) (汉译英) _______________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】Although the content generated by artificial intelligence can greatly improve work efficiency, it requires users to have the ability to distinguish right from wrong and think critically. 【解析】 【详解】考查动词、状语从句、宾语从句和时态。“尽管人工智能生成的内容能大大提高工作效率”是让步状语从句,用从属连词although引导从句,主语“人工智能生成的内容”译为the content generated by artificial intelligence,其中generated by artificial intelligence是过去分词短语作后置定语,表被动,“大大提高”译为greatly improve,在情态动词can后谓语动词improve用原形,宾语“工作效率”用名词词组work efficiency;“但同时也需要使用者具别对错和批判性思考的能力”是主句,补充主语it,指代前文“the content generated by artificial intelligence”,谓语“需要”用动词require,描述客观事实用一般现在时态,主语是单数代词,谓语用单数形式requires,宾语“使用者”用名词users,因require sb. to do sth.是固定搭配,所以宾语补足语“具别对错和批判性思考的能力”用不定式短语to have the ability to distinguish right from wrong and think critically表示。综上,全句译为:Although the content generated by artificial intelligence can greatly improve work efficiency, it requires users to have the ability to distinguish right from wrong and think critically.
