What should applicants do before filling out the application form？ A. Contact UNESCO managers． B. Get access to the database． C. Keep a motivation letter at hand． D. Work in a team for six months． B At 17 years old, most are still learning basic driving skills in America. Once the car is parked, the day is packed with school activities and hanging out with friends. But at 17, Maggie Taraska had a distinctive goal in mind: Fly alone across the United States. Both of Maggie’s parents were retired from the air force, so the urge to fly is in Maggie’s blood. She went to flight school, put in the hours with an instructor and started on her training hours. But on her first takeoff, something didn’t sound right. The plane had lost one of the landing gear wheels. “As soon as I took off, I just heard something was wrong instinctively.” said Maggie. Her instructor talked to her from the ground while she circled a few times to gather herself. “I was frightened, thinking about all the bad things that could have happened; I was thinking about how my parents were on the ground as I knew they were watching.” Stress and panic can cause any of us to make careless decisions. It takes mental practice to calm down. “Take a few breaths, focus on the moment and follow the plan. I panicked a bit, but followed my training.” Maggie was a little shaky as she talked to the tower, but she had a perfect belly landing that skidded on the infield grass. Her father couldn’t be prouder. “By the time I saw Maggie on her approach, it was a better approach than I could have flown,” he said. Cheers erupted in the tower, and Maggie took a deep breath and climbed out of the plane. Credit does go to the crew for talking to her. Yes, we all need someone to talk us through challenging times, but in the end, it was all Maggie at the controls. We could all be forgiven for calling it quits after an experience like that. After all, it was a bit distressing. So walking away would be understandable. But five days later, Maggie was going through her pre-flight safety inspections, checking the wings, especially checking the landing gear. “It feels amazing,” she said, “It gives an incredible sense of liberation.” At some point in our lives, we will all be in a situation for the first time. It’s scary. But if you face your fears, the whole world opens up to you. 24. Maggie’s urge to fly alone was mainly influenced by ______. A. her parents’ background in air force B. her experience of school activities C. her instructor’s encouragements D. her basic driving skills 25. When Maggie heard something wrong during takeoff, she ______. A. landed the plane immediately B. thought of her parents’ expectation C. circled a few times to calm herself down D. continued flying as if nothing had happened 26. Which words would best describe Maggie’s personality? A. Proud and intelligent. B. Positive and cautious. C. Patient and responsible. D. Fearless and determined. 27. What can we learn from the passage? A. Failure is the mother of success. B. A good beginning is half done. C. Fortune favors the brave. D. Practice makes perfect. C Microsoft Excel’s auto-correction has long annoyed casual users. Dashes (破折号) before lists of numbers are misread as a minus sign. Phone numbers lose their leading zeroes. Credit-card numbers get re-expressed in scientific notation, like 1.30521E + 17. Geneticists struggle with a particular version of this problem. A gene (基因) called Membrane Associated Ring-CH-type finger 1, commonly known as MARCH1, is, for instance, frequently re-encoded as the date March 1. Something similar happens to genes in the Septin family, of which SEPT1 is a member, and to Basic Helix-Loop-Helix Family Member E41, often known as DEC2. This problem was first noticed in 2004, but was brought to wider attention in 2016 by Mark Ziemann of Deakin University, in Australia. By surveying 166,000 genomics-related papers published between 2014 and 2020, he and his co-authors showed that the number of papers using Excel has steadily increased, and the proportion with auto-correct errors is at around 30%. Errors have also been flagged by researchers in other languages. In Portuguese, for instance, AGO2 (Argonaute RISC Catalytic Component 2) rebrands itself as Agosto 2. Dutch users experience problems with MEII (Meiotic Double-Stranded Break Formation Protein 1), “Mei” being the Dutch for “May”. And geneticists in Finland, where the first month of the year is called Tammikuu, find TAMM41 encoding itself as 41st of January. This continuing state of affairs is surprising. In August 2020, the committee which standardises gene names renamed those beginning MARC, MARCH and SEPT to begin MTARC, MARCHF and SEPTIN, and rebranded DEC1 as DELEC1. Other problematic gene names remained, but this was widely seen as a step in the right direction. Dr Zieman’s latest paper, though, suggests that few researchers have taken it. Such errors often seem amusing rather than dangerous. But they reflect a deeper problem, which is that spreadsheets allow such silent errors, too well camouflaged for authors or their editors to spot, to go undetected for years. To stop this, Dr Ziemann recommends researchers abandon software like Excel in favor of scheduled code written with scientific applications in mind. Such programs are more difficult to be autocorrected and easier to examine. Whether his advice will be taken this time remains to be seen. 28. As for Excel’s auto-correct issue, which statement might Dr Ziemann agree with? A. Switching to science-specific coding tools. B. Relying on Excel’s advanced function. C. Adopting the renamed gene terms. D. Avoiding auto-correct in papers. 29. What does the underlined word “camouflaged” in the last paragraph probably mean? A. Decorated deliberately. B. Hidden unnoticeably. C. Corrected automatically. D. Increased sharply. 30 What is the purpose of the passage? A. To emphasize the drawback of autocorrection in scientific research. B. To explain a problem-solving procedure for autocorrection. C. To recommend a new software to replace Excel. D. To advocate a campaign to abandon Excel. D Of the many patients who need an organ from a donor, 90% go without. About 240 million people live with rare genetic discases, most of which cannot be treated. Each year poor diets cause more than 10 million early deaths. Suffering on such an immense scale can appear hopeless. However, a technique called CRISPR gene editing promises to help deal with these issues and many more and proper regulation can help it develop. CRISPR is like an editor for DNA. It can rewrite DNA, removing harmful mutations (突变) or adding protective ones. This summer, clinical trials (试验) will start on pig organs edited for human transplants. Last year, the first new treatment went on the market. It seemingly cures sickle- cell disease and beta-thalassemia, two blood disorders that affect millions. If ongoing trials succeed, a one-time treatment might protect against heart attacks for life. CRISPR can also help farming. It can increase outputs or protect crops from climate change. Soon, consumers may get healthier, tastier foods. But now is a crucial time. Since its discovery in 2012, CRISPR has replaced old, less-effective ideas. Gene treatment, which uses viruses to insert genes, can treat rare genetic diseases but is expensive. Genetically modified (GM) crops, which borrow genes from other species, face opposition in Europe. CRISPR offers a new way. But to succeed, it needs continuous investment, which means achieving real-world successes. For this to happen, scientists must show they can get CRISPR into more body cells easily and cheaply. If it can create personalized treatments for individual mutations, it will be even more useful. This requires new science and better regulation. Current regulations for rare-disease drugs aren’t suitable for new medicines. They stop patients from getting new treatments. Developing drugs for small groups has always been hard, and many CRISPR companies are struggling. But CRISPR is programmable, so the same drug can target different mutations. If safety testing and manufacturing standards are loosened, small-batch drugs for rare diseases can be made more cheaply. For patients who may die before drug approval, this is a good trade-off. Agriculture also needs reform. In many regions, gene-edited foods are regulated like GM foods, though they’re different. Gene-edited plants have their own genes adjusted, not genes from other species. Britain plans to pass new, looser laws for gene-edited foods to address climate change threats to food security. But public trust in regulators and scientists could be a problem. 31. What is Paragraph 3 mainly about? A. The challenges and requirements for CRISPR’s success. B. The differences between CRISPR and GM farming. C. The economic benefits of genetic engineering. D. The history of CRISPR development. 32. What can be inferred about current safety testing standards? A. They are unnecessary for CRISPR treatments. B. They delay treatment access for urgent cases. C. They ensure complete safety for all patients. D. They focus only on agricultural products. 33. As for CRISPR gene editing, the author is ______. A. critical B. doubtful C. indifferent D. positive 34. Which would be the best title for this passage? A. CRISPR: Medical Breakthroughs and Funding Shortages. B. CRISPR: Public Distrust in Agricultural Innovation. C. CRISPR: Potential and Regulatory Adaptation. D. CRISPR: Limitations in Current Applications. 第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，共10分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Time or Money? Would you rather have a higher salary or the freedom to work from anywhere in the world? According to a survey, seven out of ten surveyed readers would consider accepting a lower salary for more perks (额外津贴) and benefits — one in ten would definitely do so. ____35____ For today’s workforce, especially Gen Zs and millennials (千禧一代), perks extend far beyond the traditional benefits package. They are putting a lot of focus on work-life balance, career advancement, and the company’s culture and values. Among all, a flexible work arrangement tops the list of those values. ____36____The ability to control when and where they work not only boosts productivity but also helps prevent burnout. This shift enforces companies to demonstrate that they value outcomes and results over rigid schedules. In return, employees feel trusted, valued, and empowered, performing at their best when given the flexibility to balance their personal and professional lives. ____37____ For women, especially working mothers, unclear boundaries between home and work can make them feel like they are always working, which increases the risk of burnout. Moreover, remote work can intensify (增强) the challenges associated with career advancement, as fewer in-person interactions can lead to being overlooked or sidelined. ____38____ This belief could negatively affect their chances for promotions and leadership opportunities. Looking ahead, flexible work arrangements are here to stay and will likely continue to evolve. ____39____ Organizations should ensure equitable opportunities consistent with flexible work models, such as offering personalized arrangements instead of one-size-fits-all solutions. A. But what are these perks and how are companies adapting to meet these expectations? B. Furthermore, those who prefer flexibility are often seen as less committed to their careers. C. While flexible work arrangements offer benefits, they also have drawbacks. D. Flexibility and work-life balance now outweigh financial rewards for many. E. It provides the independence and freedom younger employees seek. F. Employers invest a lot in creating attractive work environments. G. This is where company policies can play a crucial role. 第三部分 书面表达（共两节，32分） 第一节（共4小题；第40、41题各2分，第42题3分，第43题5分，共12分） 阅读下面短文，根据题目要求用英文回答问题。 阅读下面短文，根据题目要求用英文回答问题。请在答题卡指定区域作答。 We Need to Talk... and Write A recent survey conducted by UNESCO reveals a significant decline in the ability of young people to express their thoughts and ideas. Half of the 1,333 participants admitted to having poor verbal skills, while 40% struggled with written expressions. Poor education could be a cause of poor communication skills, but that may not explain everything. Most of the participants were well-educated individuals in their 20s and 30s, with over 60% holding a bachelor’s degree or higher. The problem more likely resulted from the rise of digital communication, with young people now preferring texting short messages, which may limit their ability to engage in meaningful conversations and write complete sentences. Effective verbal and written communication skills are essential both in school and in the workplace. Warren Buffett, a famous investor, always urges young people to learn public speaking. It may be scary to speak in front of a group, but it boosts confidence. Jeff Bezos, the founder of Amazon, is known for valuing the written word. He replaces PowerPoint presentations in meetings with “six-page, narratively-structured (叙事结构)” memos. Meetings start with each attendee sitting and silently reading a memo for the first 30 minutes. The decline in communication skills is a worldwide problem. In America, there is a movement among “homeschoolers” to. try to solve the problem by returning to ancient educational wisdom, the “Trivium”, which dates back to medieval times in Europe. The word comes from Latin and means “where three roads meet.” The subjects — the “three roads” — are grammar, rhetoric and logic. Grammar means learning how to write a complete and accurate sentence. Rhetoric is the use of similes (明喻), metaphors (暗喻) and other grammatical devices. And logic is the use of reason to discover what is true or not true, or what can be proved or disproved. Whether such classical education can help with the decline in communication skills remains to be seen, but it offers a glimmer of hope in this challenging situation. 40. What does the survey conducted by UNESCO reveal? _____________________________________________________________ 41. What is the main reason for young people’s poor communication skills? _____________________________________________________________ 42. Please decide which part is false in the following statement, then underline it and explain why. ▶Ancient educational wisdom is applied to address today’s communication decline in America, and it has already helped students improve expressive skills. _____________________________________________________________ 43.
