Special Offer: Uncovering Series
These limited-edition publications bring you the newest research and excavation updates unique to each of these iconic archaeological sites (标志性考古遗址).
UNCOVERING TROY—Twenty Years as a UNESCO World Heritage Site
Troy is one of the best-known sites in the ancient world. During the Bronze Age, nearly 3,500 years ago, this was the location of the Trojan War, the famous battle described by the ancient Greek poet Homer. This exciting volume provides an overview of Troy’s history and of the significant finds made by archaeologists (考古学家) who have worked there since it was discovered in 1871.
UNCOVERING PYLOS—A Look at the Heart of Archaeological History and Discoveries at the Greek World’s next Preserved Mycenaean Palace
Like Troy, the ancient site of Pylos figures in the Trojan War as the home of the famous king Nestor, whose palace was discovered there nearly a century ago. Since then, archaeologists have worked to uncover extraordinary architecture and artifacts (史前古器物) of the Mycenaean age, including the impressive tomb of the Griffin Warrior, whose riches are revealed in these pages.
UNCOVERING EASTER ISLAND—An ancient site and the world’s most recent archaeological focus
On this remote Pacific island, beginning about 1,000 years ago, Indigenous (土著的) people carved the enormous stone moai. Read about how these ingenious artists created and moved the immense (巨大的) statues, theories of what may have happened to the island’s ancient inhabitants, and how today’s Rapanui people are embracing these extremely impressive monuments of their past.

As Wang Xueru packed her bag, sharp cramps twisting her stomach, a student silently approached. The girl placed two things into Wang’s hand: a small, folded note and a warm heat patch. Wang unfolded (打开) the paper: “If the sky is cloudy, I will be your sunshine.”
In that instant, the classroom walls of Mengla No. 1 High School seemed to glow. The pain and weariness didn’t vanish, but something warmer — a shared kindness — rose to meet it. This quiet moment defined Wang’s year as a volunteer teacher in rural Yunnan.
Wang, 22, graduated from the University of International Business and Economics in Beijing with degrees in Chinese literature and international economics. Yet her true passion was service. Guided by her motto — “When poor, cultivate yourself; when successful, help the world” — she led campus volunteer groups and launched online literacy projects. When she applied for the competitive “Go West” Postgraduate Education Supporting Program (only 21 chosen yearly from 50 applicants), her experience shone. She earned her place.
Now, far from her coastal hometown of Quanzhou, Wang teaches in mountainous Mengla County. Her classroom holds not just textbooks, but trust. The student’s note wasn’t just comfort; it was a reflection of the connection Wang builds daily.
“People might imagine rural teaching means just giving lessons,” Wang might say. “But it’s more. It’s showing up, even when it’s hard. It’s seeing their struggles, and letting them see yours. That note? That was sunshine returned.”
Wang understands her role transcends (超越) academics. In Mengla, she cultivates hope — one warm patch, one quiet word of sunshine at a time.
4. Why did the girl give Wang Xueru two things?
A. To thank her for excellent teaching. B. To return classroom items she lost.
C. To comfort her during physical pain. D. To remind her about the weather.
5. Why was Wang Xueru selected for the “Go West” program?
A. She had rich volunteer experience. B. She had top grades in economics.
C. She created new teaching methods. D. She could bear difficult conditions.
6. Which of the following best describes Wang Xueru?
A. Ambitious and strict. B. Caring and committed.
C. Intelligent and quiet. D. Brave and self-reliant.
7. What does Wang Xueru understand rural teaching involves?
A. Following school rules strictly. B. Adapting to local weather challenges.
C. Focusing on personal achievements. D. More than academic lessons.
C
Summer mornings at Wangjiangjing town’s Kaisen (Happy) Tribe in Jiaxing, Zhejiang, feature soft light over grassland paths and the pleasant smell of lotus from nearby wetlands. Opened last October, this rural retreat (度假村) combines village landscapes with children’s play, camping, farming, and environmental education, attracting urban travelers, especially from Shanghai.
“Our core philosophy is creating a boundless classroom in nature,” states Mo Xiaohua, Kaisen Tribe Operations Lead. The project embraces forest-style education and community growth, aligning (使一致) with Wangjiangjing’s vision for canal-themed experiential learning and cultural tourism as a new family destination.
The Grand Canal, which long shaped the town’s identity, saw its bustling past fade with modernization. Renewed national focus on canal preservation drives local efforts to repurpose idle resources.
Guided by green development principles, the project revived an abandoned village. Designers integrated playgrounds, fishponds, farms, and paddies into existing forests, fields, and ponds, achieving ecological transformation. This draws up to 10,000 visitors on peak days, with plans for more uniquely themed hotel rooms.
Kaisen Tribe is part of the Jiaxing Grand Canal Culture & Tourism Resort. “The goal is a living community, not an untouchable museum,” says Shen Tao, a resort official. Since 2018, the resort has pursued “heritage-first” development, rooted in its UNESCO status — including the Ming Dynasty Changhong Bridge. Eleven large lakes shape the classic Jiangnan water town landscape and traditions like lotus cultivation.
Historic repurposing is key: A 1960s granary (谷仓) complex now houses a café and cultural space, preserving its architecture. Another granary hosts a digital hub with VR and performances. A reconstructed steam locomotive (火车头) from the historic Suzhou-Jiaxing Railway (1936-1944) serves as a visitor center and patriotic site near wartime bunkers (碉堡).
Unique attractions like reptile museums, concrete pipe rooms, rice field tours, and animal encounters appeal strongly to younger travelers seeking social media moments. Future plans include expanding night tourism, enhancing digital integration, and developing a youth soccer training base for sports tourism.
8. What is Kaisen Tribe’s core educational concept?
A. Urban community growth centers. B. Tech-driven immersive learning experiences.
C. Traditional farming restoration. D. Nature-based limitless learning.
9. Which of the following best explains “idle resources” underlined in paragraph 3?
A. Polluted water ecosystems. B. Abandoned heritage structures.
C. Forgotten traditional crafts. D. Vast fields and ponds.
10. What can be inferred about the historical sites?
A. Bunkers prevent cultural exchange.
B. Changhong Bridge needs UNESCO approval.
C. Old buildings get new uses while keeping history.
D. Granaries focus more on storage than new tech.
11. What key principle drives Kaisen Tribe’s success?
A. Innovation through heritage revival. B. Commercial interests drive sustainability.
C. Tourist numbers define cultural value. D. Technology replaces traditional experiences.
D
Healthcare organizations face big problems: costs are rising, but income is growing slowly. Cloud technology offers a solution by replacing outdated systems, improving efficiency, and enhancing care. Key benefits include helping doctors make better decisions by giving them faster access to patient information, lowering costs by making operations run smoother — which is crucial when government payments are low — and providing stronger security to protect patient data. As Dr. Michelle Flemmings from Oracle notes, older computer systems often made work harder with repetitive tasks, while the cloud makes accessing data easier and reduces doctors’ workload.
Adding AI makes the cloud even more powerful. AI acts like a smart helper for doctors. Flemmings compares it to having a top medical expert by your side. AI helps assess patient risks, suggests best practices, and finds vital information in health records instantly. This teamwork speeds up tasks, like finding patients who qualify for clinical trials during regular visits — opportunities often missed before. Also, AI-powered patient websites offer personalized services like online booking, meeting the high demand for digital options.
Cloud uses are growing fast: reducing missed appointments, automating complex data analysis, spotting security risks, and simplifying administration tasks. However, moving to the cloud has challenges, mainly cost and security worries. Flemmings advises starting small with pilot projects to fix specific problems, especially for smaller hospitals. Importantly, cloud security is often better than old systems, with AI boosting threat detection. As Amar Nagaram from IU Health highlights, the cloud simplifies tech systems and improves teamwork.
Ultimately, the cloud is changing healthcare’s future. It cuts costs and tech burdens while speeding up innovation. Secure cloud tools let patients access care remotely, beyond the clinic. Nagaram states that without cloud tech, healthcare groups can’t compete. While moving needs careful planning, progress is happening. For example, IU Health uses AI to prioritize urgent patient help requests. Cloud technology is building a foundation for healthcare focused on patients, quality, and constant innovation.
12. What are the primary pressures driving healthcare towards cloud adoption?
A. Demand for better patient experiences.
B. Shortage of physical data storage space.
C. Rising costs and slowing revenue growth.
D. Government requirements for new technology.
13. How is AI described when assisting a doctor?
A. A clinical support tool. B. A top consultant nearby.
C. A real-time data processor. D. An independent advisor.
14. What is the recommended strategy for adopting cloud technology?
A. Gradual launch starting small. B. Ignoring cost considerations.
C. Taking full-system migration. D. Outsourcing all IT operations.
15. Which can be a suitable title for the text?
A. The Rise of Digital Patient Portals.
B. The AI Revolution in Medical Diagnosis.
C. Cutting Healthcare Costs Through Technology.
D. Revolutionizing Healthcare Through Cloud Technology.

47. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之成为一篇完整的短文。
My crazy brother Ted and I stepped out of school, arms laden with completed papers, minds already buzzing with summer plans. The blazing sun on our faces had never felt so good — school was over! Our minds were ablaze with visions of June, July, and August.
June meant the stream below our house was swollen from spring melt. In moments, we changed into shorts and t-shirts and headed to the nearby wood factory. Ted boldly bargained for two abandoned wood pallets (托盘). Earlier, we’d brought home eight empty milk bags from the school’s cooler unit — rectangular bags holding several gallons each, with rubber spouts (橡胶嘴). Four inflated milk bags, tied off, fitted perfectly between a pallet’s slats: instant raft!
It took all afternoon to build two rafts and part of the evening to scavenge ((在废弃物中)寻找可用之物) for poles. We planned our first voyage for the next day, the first full day of summer. After a rushed breakfast, Mom letting us take sandwiches, we dragged the pallets through the yard and up the dirt track beside the swollen creek, friends tagging along. Ted, ten that summer, wild and funny, was the neighborhood’s spark. I was nine.
Sweating in the heat and humidity, we alternated between dragging and carrying the heavy rafts — a kid on each corner — kicking up dust that clung to our sweat during the arduous mile-long trek upstream. Inspired by Thor Heyerdahl’s Kon-Tiki voyage, we were determined adventurers. Relief washed over us and our friends as we finally plunked the rafts down in the long grass by the water’s edge.
We invited everyone, especially those who helped carry, to join the ride. Six or seven kids watched warily. The roaring current didn’t dampen Ted’s boundless optimism, but his offer of a “ride-of-a-lifetime” was silently declined. Honestly, I doubted the rafts would even float. As I stepped into the water and pulled the pallet, a friend handed me my pole. I knelt down, and the raft floated — barely. Ted, beside me, gave a mighty push with his pole. “Stand up on it!” he shouted above the tumult (喧哗). “Let’s go!” I stood. In that moment, Ted was like a great adventurer braving a storm. Everything went smoothly for the first half hour.
注意:
(1)续写词数应为150词左右;
(2)请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
However, the current seized us, rolling and rocking.
__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
“Swim to safety!” Ted yelled, poling crazily towards the bank.

As Wang Xueru packed her bag, sharp cramps twisting her stomach, a student silently approached. The girl placed two things into Wang’s hand: a small, folded note and a warm heat patch. Wang unfolded (打开) the paper: “If the sky is cloudy, I will be your sunshine.”
In that instant, the classroom walls of Mengla No. 1 High School seemed to glow. The pain and weariness didn’t vanish, but something warmer — a shared kindness — rose to meet it. This quiet moment defined Wang’s year as a volunteer teacher in rural Yunnan.
Wang, 22, graduated from the University of International Business and Economics in Beijing with degrees in Chinese literature and international economics. Yet her true passion was service. Guided by her motto — “When poor, cultivate yourself; when successful, help the world” — she led campus volunteer groups and launched online literacy projects. When she applied for the competitive “Go West” Postgraduate Education Supporting Program (only 21 chosen yearly from 50 applicants), her experience shone. She earned her place.
Now, far from her coastal hometown of Quanzhou, Wang teaches in mountainous Mengla County. Her classroom holds not just textbooks, but trust. The student’s note wasn’t just comfort; it was a reflection of the connection Wang builds daily.
“People might imagine rural teaching means just giving lessons,” Wang might say. “But it’s more. It’s showing up, even when it’s hard. It’s seeing their struggles, and letting them see yours. That note? That was sunshine returned.”
Wang understands her role transcends (超越) academics. In Mengla, she cultivates hope — one warm patch, one quiet word of sunshine at a time.
4. Why did the girl give Wang Xueru two things?
A. To thank her for excellent teaching. B. To return classroom items she lost.
C. To comfort her during physical pain. D. To remind her about the weather.
5. Why was Wang Xueru selected for the “Go West” program?
A. She had rich volunteer experience. B. She had top grades in economics.
C. She created new teaching methods. D. She could bear difficult conditions.
6. Which of the following best describes Wang Xueru?
A. Ambitious and strict. B. Caring and committed.
C. Intelligent and quiet. D. Brave and self-reliant.
7. What does Wang Xueru understand rural teaching involves?

When she applied for the competitive “Go West” Postgraduate Education Supporting Program (only 21 chosen yearly from 50 applicants), her experience shone. She earned her place.(22 岁的王雪茹毕业于北京对外经济贸易大学,拥有中国文学与国际经济双学位。但她真正的热忱在于服务他人。在‘穷则独善其身,达则兼济天下’这一座右铭的指引下,她带领校园志愿者团队,还发起了线上扫盲项目。当她申请竞争激烈的“西部计划”研究生支教项目时(该项目每年从 50 名申请者中仅选拔 21 人),她的过往经历十分亮眼,最终成功入选)”可知,从王雪茹的行为来看:她放弃城市机会,前往云南农村支教,体现对支教事业的“投入(committed)”;根据第四段“Now, far from her coastal hometown of Quanzhou, Wang teaches in mountainous Mengla County. Her classroom holds not just textbooks, but trust. The student’s note wasn’t just comfort; it was a reflection of the connection Wang builds daily.(如今,王雪茹远离自己位于沿海地区的家乡泉州,在山区勐腊县任教。在她的课堂上,不仅有课本,更有信任。学生递来的那张纸条,不只是一份安慰,更是王雪茹日常与学生建立起情感联结的体现)”可知,学生在她胃痛时送暖贴和纸条,而这源于她日常与学生建立的信任和关怀,反过来也体现她平时对学生的“关心(caring)”。故选B项。
【7题详解】
细节理解题。根据第五段中的““People might imagine rural teaching means just giving lessons,” Wang might say. “But it’s more. It’s showing up, even when it’s hard. It’s seeing their struggles, and letting them see yours. ”(王雪茹可能会说:“人们可能以为农村教学只是上课,但远不止如此。它意味着即便困难也要坚持到场,意味着看见学生的困境,也让学生看见你的不易”)”以及第六段中的“Wang understands her role transcends (超越) academics (王雪茹明白自己的角色超越了学术教学)”可知,王雪茹认为农村教学不仅仅包含学术课程。故选D项。

Summer mornings at Wangjiangjing town’s Kaisen (Happy) Tribe in Jiaxing, Zhejiang, feature soft light over grassland paths and the pleasant smell of lotus from nearby wetlands. Opened last October, this rural retreat (度假村) combines village landscapes with children’s play, camping, farming, and environmental education, attracting urban travelers, especially from Shanghai.
“Our core philosophy is creating a boundless classroom in nature,” states Mo Xiaohua, Kaisen Tribe Operations Lead. The project embraces forest-style education and community growth, aligning (使一致) with Wangjiangjing’s vision for canal-themed experiential learning and cultural tourism as a new family destination.
The Grand Canal, which long shaped the town’s identity, saw its bustling past fade with modernization. Renewed national focus on canal preservation drives local efforts to repurpose idle resources.
Guided by green development principles, the project revived an abandoned village. Designers integrated playgrounds, fishponds, farms, and paddies into existing forests, fields, and ponds, achieving ecological transformation. This draws up to 10,000 visitors on peak days, with plans for more uniquely themed hotel rooms.
Kaisen Tribe is part of the Jiaxing Grand Canal Culture & Tourism Resort. “The goal is a living community, not an untouchable museum,” says Shen Tao, a resort official. Since 2018, the resort has pursued “heritage-first” development, rooted in its UNESCO status — including the Ming Dynasty Changhong Bridge. Eleven large lakes shape the classic Jiangnan water town landscape and traditions like lotus cultivation.
Historic repurposing is key: A 1960s granary (谷仓) complex now houses a café and cultural space, preserving its architecture. Another granary hosts a digital hub with VR and performances. A reconstructed steam locomotive (火车头) from the historic Suzhou-Jiaxing Railway (1936-1944) serves as a visitor center and patriotic site near wartime bunkers (碉堡).
Unique attractions like reptile museums, concrete pipe rooms, rice field tours, and animal encounters appeal strongly to younger travelers seeking social media moments. Future plans include expanding night tourism, enhancing digital integration, and developing a youth soccer training base for sports tourism.
8. What is Kaisen Tribe’s core educational concept?
A. Urban community growth centers. B. Tech-driven immersive learning experiences.
C. Traditional farming restoration. D. Nature-based limitless learning.
9. Which of the following best explains “idle resources” underlined in paragraph 3?
A. Polluted water ecosystems. B. Abandoned heritage structures.
C. Forgotten traditional crafts. D. Vast fields and ponds.
10. What can be inferred about the historical sites?
A. Bunkers prevent cultural exchange.
B. Changhong Bridge needs UNESCO approval.
C. Old buildings get new uses while keeping history.
D. Granaries focus more on storage than new tech.
11. What key principle drives Kaisen Tribe’s success?
A. Innovation through heritage revival. B. Commercial interests drive sustainability.
C Tourist numbers define cultural value. D. Technology replaces traditional experiences.
【答案】8. D 9. B 10. C 11. A

【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。文章介绍了浙江嘉兴王江泾镇开森部落度假村依托大运河文化保护与生态转型,通过活化废弃村庄、粮仓、蒸汽机车头等历史资源,打造自然教育、亲子游乐、文化体验于一体的特色文旅空间,吸引城市家庭及年轻游客,并规划夜游、数字体验、足球基地等未来方向。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第二段中的“‘Our core philosophy is creating a boundless classroom in nature,’ states Mo Xiaohua, Kaisen Tribe Operations Lead.(开森部落运营主管莫晓华表示:‘我们的核心理念是在大自然中创造一个无限的课堂。’)”可知,开森部落的教育理念是在大自然中创造一个无限的课堂,即以自然为基础的无限学习。故选D项。
【9题详解】
词句猜测题。根据文章第三段中的“The Grand Canal, which long shaped the town’s identity, saw its bustling past fade with modernization. Renewed national focus on canal preservation drives local efforts to repurpose idle resources.(大运河长期以来塑造了小镇的身份,但随着现代化的发展,它繁忙的过去逐渐消逝。国家对运河保护的重新关注促使当地努力重新利用……。)”以及后文“Guided by green development principles, the project revived an abandoned village.(该项目以绿色发展原则为指导,复兴了一个废弃的村庄。)”可知,随着现代化的发展,大运河繁忙的过去逐渐消逝,而国家对运河保护的重新关注促使当地重新利用这些闲置资源,复兴了一个废弃的村庄,因此“闲置资源”指因时代变迁被废弃的历史建筑或场地, B选项“Abandoned heritage structures.(废弃的遗产建筑)”能够最好的解释划线词。故选B项。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章倒数第二段中的“Historic repurposing is key: A 1960s granary (谷仓) complex now houses a café and cultural space, preserving its architecture. Another granary hosts a digital hub with VR and performances.(历史性的再利用是关键:20世纪60年代的一个谷仓建筑群现在是一个咖啡馆和文化空间,保留了其建筑风貌。另一个谷仓则是一个拥有虚拟现实和表演的数字中心。)”可知,关于历史遗迹可以推断出,古老的建筑在保持原有历史风貌的同时,也得到了新的利用。故选C项。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第四段中的“Guided by green development principles, the project revived an abandoned village. Designers integrated playgrounds, fishponds, farms, and paddies into existing forests, fields, and ponds, achieving ecological transformation.(该项目以绿色发展原则为指导,复兴了一个废弃的村庄。设计师将游乐场、鱼塘、农场和稻田融入现有的森林、田野和池塘,实现了生态转型。)”以及最后一段中的“Unique attractions like reptile museums, concrete pipe rooms, rice field tours, and animal encounters appeal strongly to younger travelers seeking social media moments. Future plans include expanding night tourism, enhancing digital integration, and developing a youth soccer training base for sports tourism.(独特的景点,如爬行动物博物馆、混凝土管道室、稻田之旅和动物邂逅,对寻求社交媒体时刻的年轻旅行者有着强烈的吸引力。未来的计划包括扩大夜间旅游、加强数字整合、以及开发一个青年足球训练基地,以促进体育旅游。)”可知,推动开森部落成功的关键原则是“通过遗产复兴促进创新”。故选A项。

Healthcare organizations face big problems: costs are rising, but income is growing slowly. Cloud technology offers a solution by replacing outdated systems, improving efficiency, and enhancing care. Key benefits include helping doctors make better decisions by giving them faster access to patient information, lowering costs by making operations run smoother — which is crucial when government payments are low — and providing stronger security to protect patient data. As Dr. Michelle Flemmings from Oracle notes, older computer systems often made work harder with repetitive tasks, while the cloud makes accessing data easier and reduces doctors’ workload.
Adding AI makes the cloud even more powerful. AI acts like a smart helper for doctors. Flemmings compares it to having a top medical expert by your side. AI helps assess patient risks, suggests best practices, and finds vital information in health records instantly. This teamwork speeds up tasks, like finding patients who qualify for clinical trials during regular visits — opportunities often missed before. Also, AI-powered patient websites offer personalized services like online booking, meeting the high demand for digital options.
Cloud uses are growing fast: reducing missed appointments, automating complex data analysis, spotting security risks, and simplifying administration tasks. However, moving to the cloud has challenges, mainly cost and security worries. Flemmings advises starting small with pilot projects to fix specific problems, especially for smaller hospitals. Importantly, cloud security is often better than old systems, with AI boosting threat detection. As Amar Nagaram from IU Health highlights, the cloud simplifies tech systems and improves teamwork.
Ultimately, the cloud is changing healthcare’s future. It cuts costs and tech burdens while speeding up innovation. Secure cloud tools let patients access care remotely, beyond the clinic. Nagaram states that without cloud tech, healthcare groups can’t compete. While moving needs careful planning, progress is happening. For example, IU Health uses AI to prioritize urgent patient help requests. Cloud technology is building a foundation for healthcare focused on patients, quality, and constant innovation.
12. What are the primary pressures driving healthcare towards cloud adoption?
A. Demand for better patient experiences.
B. Shortage of physical data storage space.
C. Rising costs and slowing revenue growth.
D. Government requirements for new technology.
13. How is AI described when assisting a doctor?
A. A clinical support tool. B. A top consultant nearby.
C. A real-time data processor. D. An independent advisor.
14. What is the recommended strategy for adopting cloud technology?
A. Gradual launch starting small. B. Ignoring cost considerations.
C. Taking full-system migration. D. Outsourcing all IT operations.
15. Which can be a suitable title for the text?
A. The Rise of Digital Patient Portals.
B. The AI Revolution in Medical Diagnosis.
C. Cutting Healthcare Costs Through Technology.
D. Revolutionizing Healthcare Through Cloud Technology.

【15题详解】
主旨大意题。根据最后一段“Ultimately, the cloud is changing healthcare’s future. It cuts costs and tech burdens while speeding up innovation. Secure cloud tools let patients access care remotely, beyond the clinic. Nagaram states that without cloud tech, healthcare groups can’t compete. While moving needs careful planning, progress is happening. For example, IU Health uses AI to prioritize urgent patient help requests. Cloud technology is building a foundation for healthcare focused on patients, quality, and constant innovation.( “归根结底,云技术正在改变医疗保健的未来。它在降低成本、减轻技术负担的同时,还加快了创新步伐。安全的云工具让患者能够突破诊所的限制,远程获取医疗服务。纳加拉姆表示,没有云技术,医疗保健机构就无法参与竞争。尽管向云技术转型需要周密规划,但相关进展已然显现。例如,印第安纳大学健康中心(IU Health)就利用人工智能对患者的紧急求助需求进行优先级排序。云技术正为以患者为中心、注重质量与持续创新的医疗保健体系奠定基础。”)”可知,文章开篇指出医疗保健机构的问题,引出“云技术是解决方案”,随后介绍云技术的好处、结合AI的优势、应用中的挑战与推进策略,最后强调“云技术正在改变医疗保健的未来”,所以短文的标题为“云技术革新医疗保健行业”。故选D项。

【36题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:根据品牌金融2月份发布的全球软实力指数,中国已跃升至全球第二位,超过英国,得分为72.8分(满分为100分),这是迄今为止的最高排名。分析句子成分可知,空处为非谓语。此处需用过去分词作后置定语,修饰Global Soft Power Index,Global Soft Power Index和release为被动关系,所以为过去分词形式。故填released。
【37题详解】
考查形容词最高级。句意:根据品牌金融2月份发布的全球软实力指数,中国已跃升至全球第二位,超过英国,得分为72.8分(满分为100分),这是迄今为止的最高排名。“yet”(至今)以及语境可知,这里表示“它至今最高的排名”,要用形容词最高级,high的最高级是highest。故填highest。
【38题详解】
考查形容词。句意:25岁的土耳其籍香港大学研究助理阿提拉·卡恩·埃里西尔(Atila Kaan Erisir)强调了第一手经验在重塑观念方面的力量。这里需要一个形容词修饰“research assistant”,Turkey(土耳其)的形容词形式是Turkish(土耳其的)。故填Turkish。

考查动词时态和语态。句意:他说,他第一次访问香港,决定在香港大学学习,以及第一次访问中国大陆,改变了他对中国的看法。分析句子可知,“his idea of China”和“reshape” 之间是被动关系,即他对中国的看法被重塑,且根据语境这里描述过去发生的事情,要用一般过去时的被动语态 was/were + 过去分词,主语“his idea”是单数,所以用was reshaped。故填was reshaped。
【40题详解】
考查时间状语从句。句意:任何对中国有负面偏见的人,在遇到中国的技术进步和北京、香港等大城市有趣的城市规划时,都会改变他们的看法。分析句子成分和句意可知,空格连接主句(will change their opinions)和时间状语从句(they encounter...),表示“当……时”,应用when引导。故填when。

【45题详解】
考查固定短语。句意:许多外国人现在认为中国是一个繁荣的国家。分析句子可知,“perceive...as...”是固定搭配,意思是“把……视为……”,这里表示许多外国人现在把中国视为一个繁荣的国家。故填as。

第二节(满分25分)
47. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之成为一篇完整的短文。
My crazy brother Ted and I stepped out of school, arms laden with completed papers, minds already buzzing with summer plans. The blazing sun on our faces had never felt so good — school was over! Our minds were ablaze with visions of June, July, and August.
June meant the stream below our house was swollen from spring melt. In moments, we changed into shorts and t-shirts and headed to the nearby wood factory. Ted boldly bargained for two abandoned wood pallets (托盘). Earlier, we’d brought home eight empty milk bags from the school’s cooler unit — rectangular bags holding several gallons each, with rubber spouts (橡胶嘴). Four inflated milk bags, tied off, fitted perfectly between a pallet’s slats: instant raft!
It took all afternoon to build two rafts and part of the evening to scavenge ((在废弃物中)寻找可用之物) for poles. We planned our first voyage for the next day, the first full day of summer. After a rushed breakfast, Mom letting us take sandwiches, we dragged the pallets through the yard and up the dirt track beside the swollen creek, friends tagging along. Ted, ten that summer, wild and funny, was the neighborhood’s spark. I was nine.
Sweating in the heat and humidity, we alternated between dragging and carrying the heavy rafts — a kid on each corner — kicking up dust that clung to our sweat during the arduous mile-long trek upstream. Inspired by Thor Heyerdahl’s Kon-Tiki voyage, we were determined adventurers. Relief washed over us and our friends as we finally plunked the rafts down in the long grass by the water’s edge.
We invited everyone, especially those who helped carry, to join the ride. Six or seven kids watched warily. The roaring current didn’t dampen Ted’s boundless optimism, but his offer of a “ride-of-a-lifetime” was silently declined. Honestly, I doubted the rafts would even float. As I stepped into the water and pulled the pallet, a friend handed me my pole. I knelt down, and the raft floated — barely. Ted, beside me, gave a mighty push with his pole. “Stand up on it!” he shouted above the tumult (喧哗). “Let’s go!” I stood. In that moment, Ted was like a great adventurer braving a storm. Everything went smoothly for the first half hour.
注意:

However, the current seized us, rolling and rocking.

__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】例文
However, the current seized us, rolling and rocking. The pallets sank, water surging over our ankles and then knees as we surrendered to the raging river. Fortunately, like whitewater rafting, we were still on the raft. Leading the way, Ted glanced back, his face literally glowing with exhilaration — this was living! We shot past our house in blinks. Then, the roar hit me before sight. Unlike midsummer’s wadable flow, early June’s flood brought deafening noise and unsurprisingly, our fragile rafts, shaking aboard, were doomed. Desperation welled up in my heart.
“Swim to safety!” Ted yelled, poling crazily towards the bank. Suddenly, he jumped. I followed in panic. The torrent instantly snatched the vacant rafts, poles, and milk bags, devouring them. Swimming desperately in panic, we missed seeing them sucked into the culvert or spat out as splinters. Gasping, we grasped clumps of grass, hauling ourselves onto the soggy bank. Ted sat up, grinned, and declared, “That was something. We made it.” Joking as we jogged back to find our friends, we knew Ted would spin this near-disaster into a captivating doozy of a story — all in a summer’s day.
【解析】
