Over the years, it had grown into two shops with 11 workers, but Allamby had become uneasy, longing for something more. Therefore, at the age of 34, he decided to go for his bachelor's degree in business management. After taking classes part- time over the next five years, Allamby was told he had to take biology to get his degree, which later turned out to be the best thing that ever happened. Biology classes reawakened a childhood dream that he had hidden somewhere deep within himself. Born in East Cleveland, Ohio, Allamby was raised by his stay-at-home mother and a father who sold home goods door-to-door. His school didn't offer the advanced science classes that might have led him on a premed (医学预科的) path. Even if it had, doing well in school could prove dangerous. “You could get into a lot of trouble just for being the class nerd (讨厌的人) ,” Allamby said. So he set aside the thoughts of becoming a doctor and started fixing cars instead. But a different Carl Allamby walked into that biology class at age 39. He was ready to live his dream. With the support of his family he soon decided to skip business school to take science classes. Becoming a doctor was late and he would become a nurse instead, he reasoned. But Allamby's chemistry professor told him “Why not a doctor? You have a great talent for the work. You will go a long way. ” The professor was right and Allamby did very well. In 2015, Allamby cut ties with his past, and then he started at Northeast Ohio Medical University. In 2019, Carl Allamby became Carl Allamby, MD. He took a job in emergency medicine at Cleveland Clinic Akron General. “How many people can do something so brand-new at such a late stage in their life? ” he said. “My age and past career are all good reasons why I shouldn't be here. And yet, here I am.” 24. What is the author's purpose in writing Para. 3? A. To describe Allamby's advantages in school. B. To explain why Allamby once gave up his dream. C. To introduce Allamby's family background. D. To show how Allamby stood out in his childhood. 25. What do we know from the chemistry professor's words? A. He recognized Allamby's ability. B. He appreciated Allamby's courage. C. He suggested Allamby should aim lower. D. He thought Allamby was too old to be a doctor. 26. Why was taking biology “the best thing that ever happened” to Allamby? A. It ensured him a bachelor's degree. B. It developed his potential to become a doctor. C. It satisfied his childhood curiosity about doctors. D. It brought about positive change in his life. 27. What does Allamby's story mainly tell us? A. Failure is the mother of success. B. Education holds the key to success. C. It's never too late to pursue your dream. D. A tough man can bear great suffering. 【答案】24. B 25. A 26. D 27. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了Carl Allamby从19岁经营汽车维修生意，到34岁重拾学业，因生物学课程唤醒童年医生梦，最终在晚年成功转型成为医生的故事，凸显了“追梦永不嫌晚”的主题。 【24题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“Born in East Cleveland, Ohio, Allamby was raised by his stay-at-home mother and a father who sold home goods door-to-door. His school didn't offer the advanced science classes that might have led him on a premed (医学预科的) path. Even if it had, doing well in school could prove dangerous. “You could get into a lot of trouble just for being the class nerd (讨厌的人) ,” Allamby said. So he set aside the thoughts of becoming a doctor and started fixing cars instead. (Allamby出生在俄亥俄州的东克利夫兰，他的母亲是全职主妇，父亲是挨家挨户推销家居用品的。他的学校没有提供可能让他走上医学预科之路的高级科学课程。即便如此，在学校表现良好也可能是危险的。“如果你只是班里的书呆子，你可能会惹上很多麻烦，”Allamby说。所以他把当医生的念头搁在一边，开始修车。)”可推知，作者写第三段的目的是来解释为什么Allamby曾经放弃了他的梦想。故选B项。 【25题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中“But Allamby’s chemistry professor told him ”Why not a doctor? You have a great talent for the work. You will go a long way.” (但是Allamby的化学教授告诉他：“为什么不去当医生呢？你对这项工作很有天赋。你会大有作为的。”)”可知，从化学教授的话中我们知道他认可Allamby的能力。故选A项。 26题详解】 推理判断题。根据第五段“In 2015, Allamby cut ties with his past, and then he started at Northeast Ohio Medical University. In 2019, Carl Allamby became Carl Allamby, MD. He took a job in emergency medicine at Cleveland Clinic Akron General. (在2015年，Allamby与他的过去断绝了联系，然后他开始在东北俄亥俄医科大学工作。2019年，Carl Allamby成为Carl Allamby医学博士。他在克利夫兰诊所阿克伦总医院找到了一份急诊医学工作。)”可知Allamby学生物学后唤醒了当医生的梦想，最终成为一名医生，故推断学生物学对Allamby来说是“发生过的最好的事情”是因为这给他的生活带来了积极的转变。故选D项。 【27题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段““How many people can do something so brand-new at such a late stage in their life?” he said. “My age and past career are all good reasons why I shouldn’t be here. And yet, here I am.” (“有多少人能在生命的晚期做一些如此全新的事情？”他说。“我的年龄和过去的职业生涯都是我不应该在这里的好理由。然而，我却在这里。”)”可推知，Allamby的故事主要告诉了我们追求梦想永远都不晚。故选C项。 C During the rosy years of elementary school(小学), I enjoyed sharing my dolls and jokes, which allowed me to keep my high social status. I was the queen of the playground. Then came my tweens and teens, and mean girls and cool kids. They rose in the ranks not by being friendly but by smoking cigarettes, breaking rules and playing jokes on others, among whom I soon found myself. Popularity is a well-explored subject in social psychology. Mitch Prinstein, a professor of clinical psychology sorts the popular into two categories: the likable and the status seekers. The likables’ plays-well-with-others qualities strengthen schoolyard friendships, jump-start interpersonal skills and, when tapped early, are employed ever after in life and work. Then there’s the kind of popularity that appears in adolescence: status born of power and even dishonorable behavior. Enviable as the cool kids may have seemed, Dr. Prinstein’s studies show unpleasant consequences. Those who were highest in status in high school, as well as those least liked in elementary school, are “most likely to engage(从事) in dangerous and risky behavior.” In one study, Dr. Prinstein examined the two types of popularity in 235 adolescents, scoring the least liked, the most liked and the highest in status based on student surveys(调查研究). “We found that the least well-liked teens had become more aggressive over time toward their classmates. But so had those who were high in status. It clearly showed that while likability can lead to healthy adjustment, high status has just the opposite effect on us.” Dr. Prinstein has also found that the qualities that made the neighbors want you on a play date—sharing, kindness, openness—carry over to later years and make you better able to relate and connect with others. In analyzing his and other research, Dr. Prinstein came to another conclusion: Not only is likability related to positive life outcomes, but it is also responsible for those outcomes, too. “Being liked creates opportunities for learning and for new kinds of life experiences that help somebody gain an advantage, ” he said. 28. What sort of girl was the author in her early years of elementary school? A. Unkind. B. Lonely. C. Generous. D. Cool. 29. What is the second paragraph mainly about? A. The classification of the popular. B. The characteristics of adolescents. C. The importance of interpersonal skills. D. The causes of dishonorable behavior. 30. What did Dr. Prinstein’s study find about the most liked kids? A. They appeared to be aggressive. B. They tended to be more adaptable. C. They enjoyed the highest status. D. They performed well academically. 31. What is the best title for the text? A. Be Nice—You Won’t Finish Last B. The Higher the Status, the Better C. Be the Best—You Can Make It D. More Self-Control, Less Aggressiveness 【答案】28. C 29. A 30. B 31. A 【解析】 【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了受欢迎度对青少年的影响。 【28题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段During the rosy years of elementary school, I enjoyed sharing my dolls and jokes, which allowed me to keep my high social status.可知，在美好的小学时光里，作者喜欢分享她的娃娃和笑话，由此推断出，作者在早年的小学时期是一个慷慨的女孩。A. Unkind不友善的；B. Lonely寂寞的；C. Generous慷慨的；D. Cool冷静的。故选C。 【29题详解】 主旨大意题。第二段Mitch Prinstein, a professor of clinical psychology sorts the popular into two categories: the likable and the status seekers.（临床心理学教授Mitch Prinstein将受欢迎的人分为两类:讨人喜欢的人和追求地位的人。）是段落主题句，本段内容分别对the likable 和the status seekers做了解释，所以本段主要介绍了两种受欢迎的分类，故选A。 【30题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段It clearly showed that while likability can lead to healthy adjustment （它清楚地表明，讨人喜欢可以促使健全的调整）推断出，心理学教授Mitch Prinstein的研究表明，讨人喜欢的孩子适应性更强，故选B。 【31题详解】 主旨大意题。通过阅读全文内容，尤其是最后一段，可知这篇文章主要讲了受欢迎度对青少年的影响，讨人喜欢对青少年成长都有深远的有益影响。与选项A“友善一点——你将不会排在最后（你不会完蛋/你会笑到最后）”一致，故选A。 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。 In recent years, science fictions are becoming increasingly popular.

B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要就如何使得自己创作的科幻小说可信且吸引读者给出一些建议。 【32题详解】 根据上文“But how can they make it so believable?(但他们是如何让它如此可信的呢?)”提出疑问，而下文则开始给出建议，如何创作出一篇好的科幻小说。所以空处需要的是引出下文的句子。选项F“Here you will find the answer if you are longing to create one.(如果你想创作一个，在这里你会找到答案。)”引出下文，如何创作一篇好的科幻小说。故选F。 【33题详解】 根据上文“If you’re writing about humans living on a planet with zero gravity, then you need to know the effects of zero gravity on the human body.(如果你写的是人类生活在零重力的星球上，那么你需要知道零重力对人体的影响。)”可知，写作的时候要符合科学规律。而空后“Only in this way can you gain the readers’ trust.(只有这样，你才能获得读者的信任。)”则再次强调要这样做，所以空处要提到this way。选项D“Make sure what you are writing is not against basic science.(确保你写的东西不违反基础科学。)”正是写作的原则一，不违背科学，和下文的this way一致。故选D。 【34题详解】 根据空后的“For example, if humans in your creation are able to breathe underwater in Chapter 1, your characters can’t drown(溺水)in a swimming pool or river in Chapter 3.(例如，如果你的作品中的人类在第一章中能够在水下呼吸，那么在第三章中你的角色就不能在游泳池或河里淹死。)”可知，这里讲的是你书中的规则或许和现实不同，但你在写作时要遵守自己拟定的规则。选项A“And you have to follow them.(你必须遵守它们。)”和上文“you have to figure out the exact rules of your imaginary worlds.(你必须弄清楚你想象世界的确切规则)”一致，且正是下文例子所要说明的。故选A。 【35题详解】 空处为段首句，为本段中心句。下文“You should decide the following issues: the history of the world, the geography, what possibilities it offers, how everything works in this new reality, as well as how all of these factors affect the way your characters think, feel, and react. You don’t have to tell your readers all the rules in the first chapter. But you have to let readers know enough to understand what’s going on.(你应该决定以下问题：世界的历史，地理，它提供的可能性，一切在这个新的现实中如何运作，以及所有这些因素如何影响你的角色的思考，感觉和反应方式。你不必告诉你的读者在第一章的所有规则。但你必须让读者知道足够的信息，以便理解发生了什么。)”可知，下文讲的是你想要写的科幻小说中的一切细节。选项G“Your preparation work also involves planning everything in great detail.(你的准备工作还包括非常详细地计划每一件事。)”与下文内容一致。故选G。 【36题详解】 根据空后“They are able to see, hear, feel, smell, and even taste what it’s like in the new world. Whether your novel is about a world without disease or an undiscovered planet, help your readers feel like they’ re actually there.(他们能够看到、听到、感觉到、闻到，甚至尝到新世界的味道。无论你的小说是关于一个没有疾病的世界还是一个未被发现的星球，都要让你的读者感觉他们就在那里。)”可知，你所塑造的这个世界要能够让读者感觉自己就在其中。选项B“You are inviting them to visit the new world.(你在邀请他们参观新世界。)”引出下文，建议你在创作时要真实，要让读者有身临其境的感觉。故选B。 第四部分 书面表达 (共两节，28分) 第一节 (共4小题；第55、56题各2分，第57题3分，第58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。请在答题卡指定区域作答。 We all love to criticize (批评) , but unfortunately, we also hate being criticized. We freely post and comment on others, but feel annoyed at the way others assess us, both online and in person. The world seems unlikely to change anytime soon. Fortunately, though, each of us can change how we give and take criticism, which will make us less likely to harm others, more resistant to being angry, and better able to benefit from feedback — even when it is negative. Criticism is defined as judgment of the advantages and faults of something or someone in written or spoken form. Technically, criticism can include praise, but that isn't what concerns us here. What annoys us is criticism of the negative variety, even when well-intentioned — so-called constructive criticism, which means to provide guidance so we can improve. Worst of all is destructive criticism, which aims to cause hurt or damage. The culture of criticism isn't going away. The only way to flourish (繁荣) in it, and despite it, is to adopt new habits of getting and giving critical feedback. One rule is to assume that criticism, even when it seems personal, is not actually about you personally. When we receive criticism, we make it personal in two ways. First, we may naturally analyze the critic rather than the criticism. Second, we tend to consider the criticism a judgment on our natural abilities, rather than on our performance. Interestingly, even among young children, research shows that viewing criticism as a judgment on one's abilities can lead to lower self-worth, lower positive mood, and less persistence at tasks. If taking criticism is particularly hard for you you are not alone. However, taking criticism badly is more embarrassing, ultimately, than the criticism itself. If we do the work to learn to accept negative feedback, we will be much better off. 37. What will be the results of changing the way we give and take criticism? ______________________________________________________ 38. What is the difference between constructive and destructive criticism? ______________________________________________________ 39. Please decide which part is false in the following statement, then underline it and explain why. ▶Children who receive criticism have lower self- worth because they take criticism as a judgment on their performance. ______________________________________________________ 40. How can learning to accept negative feedback positively influence your personal growth in real- life situations? (In about 40 words) ______________________________________________________ 【答案】37. It will make us less likely to harm others, more resistant to being angry, and better able to benefit from negative feedback. 38. Constructive criticism aims to provide guidance for improvement while destructive criticism aims to cause hurt or damage. 39. Children who receive criticism have lower self-worth because they take criticism as a judgment on their performance. Because research shows children have lower self-worth when they take criticism as a judgment on their abilities, not performance. 40. It helps improve shortcomings by learning from feedback, enhances resilience against setbacks, and promotes better interpersonal relationships, boosting overall personal development. 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇议论文。谈论了人们喜欢批评却讨厌被批评，需改变给予和接受批评的方式以获益，并阐述相关方法。 【37题详解】 考查细节理解。根据第一段“Fortunately, though, each of us can change how we give and take criticism, which will make us less likely to harm others, more resistant to being angry, and better able to benefit from feedback — even when it is negative.(然而，幸运的是，我们每个人都可以改变给予和接受批评的方式，这将使我们不太可能伤害他人，更能抵抗愤怒，并且更能从反馈中获益——即使是负面反馈。)”可知，改变给予和接受批评的方式将使我们不太可能伤害他人，更能抵抗愤怒，并能更好地从负面反馈中受益。故答案为：It will make us less likely to harm others, more resistant to being angry, and better able to benefit from negative feedback. 【38题详解】 考查细节理解。根据第二段“so-called constructive criticism, which means to provide guidance so we can improve. Worst of all is destructive criticism, which aims to cause hurt or damage.(所谓的建设性批评，是指提供指导以帮助我们改进。最糟糕的是破坏性批评，其目的是造成伤害或损害。)”可知，建设性批评旨在为改进提供指导，而破坏性批评旨在造成伤害或损害。故答案为：Constructive criticism aims to provide guidance for improvement while destructive criticism aims to cause hurt or damage. 【39题详解】 考查推理判断。首先，原句“Children who receive criticism have lower self-worth”表述绝对，原文第三段强调“viewing criticism as a judgment on one's abilities(把批评看作是对一个人能力的判断)”这一前提；其次，原句将原因归为“take criticism as a judgment on their performance”，而原文明确为“judgment on one’s abilities”。结合第三段“Interestingly, even among young children, research shows that viewing criticism as a judgment on one's abilities can lead to lower self-worth, lower positive mood, and less persistence at tasks.(有趣的是，研究表明，即使在幼儿中，将批评视为对个人能力的评判也会导致自我价值感降低、积极情绪减少和完成任务的坚持性下降。)”可知，原句错误点在于“performance（表现）”，因为研究表明，当孩子们把批评当作对自己能力的判断，而不是表现的判断时，他们的自我价值感会降低。 故答案为：Children who receive criticism have lower self- worth because they take criticism as a judgment on their performance. Because research shows children have lower self-worth when they take criticism as a judgment on their abilities, not performance. 【40题详解】 考查推理表达。根据全文主旨及第三、四段内容，接受负面反馈可助改进不足、提升抗压能力等。结合现实，需体现对个人成长的积极影响。可以说，接受负面反馈通过从反馈中学习来帮助改善缺点，增强抵御挫折的能力，促进更好的人际关系，促进整体个人发展。故答案为：It helps improve shortcomings by learning from feedback, enhances resilience against setbacks, and promotes better interpersonal relationships, boosting overall personal development. 第二节 (16分) 41. 假设你是红星中学高三学生李华。近期你校将在海淀公园举行“阳光长跑”活动，请你给国际部好友Jim写封电子邮件，邀请他参加。内容包括： 1. 活动信息； 2. 注意事项。 注意：1.词数100左右； 2.开头和结尾已给出，不计入总词数。 Dear Jim, ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Yours, Li Hua 【答案】Dear Jim, How have you been?

Over the years, it had grown into two shops with 11 workers, but Allamby had become uneasy, longing for something more. Therefore, at the age of 34, he decided to go for his bachelor's degree in business management. After taking classes part- time over the next five years, Allamby was told he had to take biology to get his degree, which later turned out to be the best thing that ever happened. Biology classes reawakened a childhood dream that he had hidden somewhere deep within himself. Born in East Cleveland, Ohio, Allamby was raised by his stay-at-home mother and a father who sold home goods door-to-door. His school didn't offer the advanced science classes that might have led him on a premed (医学预科的) path. Even if it had, doing well in school could prove dangerous. “You could get into a lot of trouble just for being the class nerd (讨厌的人) ,” Allamby said. So he set aside the thoughts of becoming a doctor and started fixing cars instead. But a different Carl Allamby walked into that biology class at age 39. He was ready to live his dream. With the support of his family he soon decided to skip business school to take science classes. Becoming a doctor was late and he would become a nurse instead, he reasoned. But Allamby's chemistry professor told him “Why not a doctor? You have a great talent for the work. You will go a long way. ” The professor was right and Allamby did very well. In 2015, Allamby cut ties with his past, and then he started at Northeast Ohio Medical University. In 2019, Carl Allamby became Carl Allamby, MD. He took a job in emergency medicine at Cleveland Clinic Akron General. “How many people can do something so brand-new at such a late stage in their life? ” he said. “My age and past career are all good reasons why I shouldn't be here. And yet, here I am.” 24. What is the author's purpose in writing Para. 3? A. To describe Allamby's advantages in school. B. To explain why Allamby once gave up his dream. C. To introduce Allamby's family background. D. To show how Allamby stood out in his childhood. 25. What do we know from the chemistry professor's words? A. He recognized Allamby's ability. B. He appreciated Allamby's courage. C. He suggested Allamby should aim lower. D. He thought Allamby was too old to be a doctor. 26. Why was taking biology “the best thing that ever happened” to Allamby? A. It ensured him a bachelor's degree. B. It developed his potential to become a doctor. C. It satisfied his childhood curiosity about doctors. D. It brought about positive change in his life. 27. What does Allamby's story mainly tell us? A. Failure is the mother of success. B. Education holds the key to success. C. It's never too late to pursue your dream. D. A tough man can bear great suffering. C During the rosy years of elementary school(小学), I enjoyed sharing my dolls and jokes, which allowed me to keep my high social status. I was the queen of the playground. Then came my tweens and teens, and mean girls and cool kids. They rose in the ranks not by being friendly but by smoking cigarettes, breaking rules and playing jokes on others, among whom I soon found myself. Popularity is a well-explored subject in social psychology. Mitch Prinstein, a professor of clinical psychology sorts the popular into two categories: the likable and the status seekers. The likables’ plays-well-with-others qualities strengthen schoolyard friendships, jump-start interpersonal skills and, when tapped early, are employed ever after in life and work. Then there’s the kind of popularity that appears in adolescence: status born of power and even dishonorable behavior. Enviable as the cool kids may have seemed, Dr. Prinstein’s studies show unpleasant consequences. Those who were highest in status in high school, as well as those least liked in elementary school, are “most likely to engage(从事) in dangerous and risky behavior.” In one study, Dr. Prinstein examined the two types of popularity in 235 adolescents, scoring the least liked, the most liked and the highest in status based on student surveys(调查研究). “We found that the least well-liked teens had become more aggressive over time toward their classmates. But so had those who were high in status. It clearly showed that while likability can lead to healthy adjustment, high status has just the opposite effect on us.” Dr. Prinstein has also found that the qualities that made the neighbors want you on a play date—sharing, kindness, openness—carry over to later years and make you better able to relate and connect with others. In analyzing his and other research, Dr. Prinstein came to another conclusion: Not only is likability related to positive life outcomes, but it is also responsible for those outcomes, too. “Being liked creates opportunities for learning and for new kinds of life experiences that help somebody gain an advantage, ” he said. 28. What sort of girl was the author in her early years of elementary school? A. Unkind. B. Lonely. C. Generous. D. Cool. 29. What is the second paragraph mainly about? A. The classification of the popular. B. The characteristics of adolescents. C. The importance of interpersonal skills. D. The causes of dishonorable behavior. 30. What did Dr. Prinstein’s study find about the most liked kids? A. They appeared to be aggressive. B. They tended to be more adaptable. C. They enjoyed the highest status. D. They performed well academically. 31. What is the best title for the text? A. Be Nice—You Won’t Finish Last B. The Higher the Status, the Better C. Be the Best—You Can Make It D. More Self-Control, Less Aggressiveness 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。 In recent years, science fictions are becoming increasingly popular. Science fiction writers using their magical imagination create imaginary worlds that attract a great number of readers especially teenagers.

We freely post and comment on others, but feel annoyed at the way others assess us, both online and in person. The world seems unlikely to change anytime soon. Fortunately, though, each of us can change how we give and take criticism, which will make us less likely to harm others, more resistant to being angry, and better able to benefit from feedback — even when it is negative. Criticism is defined as judgment of the advantages and faults of something or someone in written or spoken form. Technically, criticism can include praise, but that isn't what concerns us here. What annoys us is criticism of the negative variety, even when well-intentioned — so-called constructive criticism, which means to provide guidance so we can improve. Worst of all is destructive criticism, which aims to cause hurt or damage. The culture of criticism isn't going away. The only way to flourish (繁荣) in it, and despite it, is to adopt new habits of getting and giving critical feedback. One rule is to assume that criticism, even when it seems personal, is not actually about you personally. When we receive criticism, we make it personal in two ways. First, we may naturally analyze the critic rather than the criticism. Second, we tend to consider the criticism a judgment on our natural abilities, rather than on our performance. Interestingly, even among young children, research shows that viewing criticism as a judgment on one's abilities can lead to lower self-worth, lower positive mood, and less persistence at tasks. If taking criticism is particularly hard for you, you are not alone. However, taking criticism badly is more embarrassing, ultimately, than the criticism itself. If we do the work to learn to accept negative feedback, we will be much better off. 37.
