Here are four who pushed boundaries and changed the world. Wu Chienshiung (1912—1997) Born in Taicang, Jiangsu province, Wu took part in the Manhattan Project which helped create the world’s first nuclear weapon. Her famous Wu experiment overturned the theory of parity conservation (宇称理论) in physics. This breakthrough led to a Nobel Prize that was awarded to her male colleagues, but Wu’s critical role in the work was overlooked. Hedy Lamarr (1914—2000) Austria-born Lamarr starred in a lot of Hollywood films and made great success. She was also super smart and a self-taught inventor. During the second world war, Lamarr together with George Antheil, a composer, developed a radio guidance system. The principle of their work is part of the basis of Bluetooth and wireless technology. Katherine Johnson (1918—2020) African American NASA mathematician Johnson’s calculations were critical in getting the first US astronauts to space and back safely. During her 33-year career at NASA, Katherine earned a reputation for mastering complex calculations and was referred to as a “human computer”. Tu Youyou (1930—) Born in Ningbo, Zhejiang province, Tu shared the 2015 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine with two other foreign scientists, for her work in discovering artemisinin, a drug used to treat malaria (疟疾). Her work has saved millions of lives all over the world.

She was also super smart and a self-taught inventor. (奥地利出生的拉玛出演了许多好莱坞电影，并取得了巨大的成功。她还非常聪明，是一个自学成才的发明家)”可知，除了是一个发明家，海蒂·拉玛也是一位女演员。故选C。 5．细节理解题。根据Tu Youyou (1930—)部分中的“Her work has saved millions of lives all over the world.

Salmon Among fatty fish, salmon has a reputation as being the best for you. On top of the fish’s high omega-3s — short for omega-3 fatty acids, salmon’s pink colour comes from its high levels of astaxanthin, which helps lower cholesterol. Salmon is also a rich source of vitamin B12, which we need to form red blood cells and is a major player in the development and function of brain and nerve cells. Sardines Like salmon, sardines are packed with omega-3s, and they are also an excellent source of calcium, which is an essential part of building strong bones. Sardines also naturally contain vitamin D, which helps the body absorb calcium and contributes to a good mood. As they are usually bought in tin cans, sardines are relatively inexpensive and make a great option if you are shopping on a tight budget. Cod This white fish is rich in phosphorus, a mineral that helps your body use and store energy from food and works with calcium to build strong bones. Phosphorus can also regulate your heartbeat and promote normal muscle and nerve function. “Cod is great for picky eaters who don’t usually like the taste of fish,” says Annie Tsang, a registered dietitian. Rainbow Trout An 85-gram serving of rainbow trout delivers 81 per cent of the recommended daily intake of vitamin D. Plus, this fish is high in healthy fats but low in mercury. Human industrial activity releases mercury into the air, and it eventually comes back down in rain and is absorbed by fish. However, rainbow trout are low in mercury because they are lower on the food chain and so eat fewer polluted fish themselves. 7．Which is the best choice for a family living on relief? A．Salmon. B．Sardines. C．Cod. D．Rainbow Trout. 8．What is special about Rainbow Trout? A．It contains vitamin D． B．It’s good value for money. C．It is free of pollution. D．It takes in the least mercury. 9．Where is the article most probably taken from? A．A certain website. B．A research paper. C．A recipe book. D．A food advertisement. 【答案】7．B 8．D 9．C 【导语】本文是一篇应用文。主要介绍了四种对健康有益的海鲜选项，包括三文鱼、沙丁鱼、鳕鱼和虹鳟鱼，并分别阐述了它们各自的特点和营养价值。 7．细节理解题。根据Sardines中“As they are usually bought in tin cans, sardines are relatively inexpensive and make a great option if you are shopping on a tight budget. (由于沙丁鱼通常是用罐头装的，所以价格相对便宜，如果你预算紧张，沙丁鱼是一个不错的选择。)”可知，对于生活救济的家庭来说，沙丁鱼因其价格相对便宜，是一个很好的选择。故选B项。 8．细节理解题。根据Rainbow Trout中“However, rainbow trout are low in mercury because they are lower on the food chain and so eat fewer polluted fish themselves. (然而，虹鳟鱼的汞含量很低，因为它们在食物链中的位置较低，所以它们自己吃的受污染的鱼也较少。)”可知，虹鳟鱼的特别之处在于它摄入的汞最少。故选D项。 9．推理判断题。根据文章第一句“Here are the four best seafood options for your health. (以下是四种对健康有益的海鲜选项。)”以及文章内容可知，本文主要介绍了四种对健康有益的海鲜选项，并分别阐述了它们各自的特点和营养价值。这样的内容更可能出现在一本食谱书中，作为对不同食材的介绍和推荐。故选C项。 Passage 4 （23-24高三上·江苏常州·期末） 10．Where is SNCF most probably located? A．In Amsterdam. B．In Brussels. C．In London. D．In Paris. 11．What is the biggest selling point of the service according to this advertisement? A．International support. B．Low price. C．Flexible timetable.

A．pay 39 Euros for the train tickets B．pay 58 Euros for the train tickets C．stay on the train for around 270 minutes D．stay on the train for 2 hours and 15 minutes or so 【答案】10．D 11．B 12．C 【导语】本文是一篇应用文。文章主要介绍了法国国营铁路公司在春假期间的旅行优惠信息。 10．推理判断题。根据小标题Discover the SNCF Connect APP下的“In a few clicks, you can plan, book and manage your train journey in France and Europe. (只需点击几下，你就可以计划、预订和管理你在法国和欧洲的火车旅行)”可推知，SNCF最有可能在法国。故选D项。 11．细节理解题。根据小标题Cross the borders下的“Quickly book your journeys from March to July 2024 at the best price! (以最优惠的价格快速预订2024年3月至 7月的旅程！)”可知，文章特别强调在 3月到 7 月期间提前预订以获得最佳价格。票价从 €29、€35 和 €39 开始。因此，可以判断最大的卖点是： 低价（Low price）。故选B项。 12．细节理解题。根据小标题London下的“Just 2h15mins from Paris by train, discover the excitement of London: a vibrant city blending iconic landmarks, picturesque neighborhoods, and an unparalleled cultural life. (从巴黎乘火车只需2小时15分钟，探索伦敦的精彩：一座充满活力的城市，融合了标志性地标、风景如画的街区和无与伦比的文化生活)”可知如果一个英国人想参观卢浮宫然后回家，他一共要花费4小时30分钟时间，即270分钟时间在火车上。故选C项。 主题03 人与社会——善行义举 Passage 1 （24-25高三上·江苏常州·期末） Sign Up for Our Most-Needed Positions In times of need, countless volunteers step up to provide vital assistance to those affected by disasters.

But the famous waterway has more scenic settings along its route before it reaches the Big Smoke. Within easy reach of London, this section is unspoilt and a lot cleaner. BUDE SEA POOL This beautiful, part natural, part man-made tidal swimming pool is set in scenic natural surroundings. Constructed in 1930, it has provided safe bathing in Bude for almost 90 years.

LAKE MORLICH This lake is surrounded by impressive views. You might have to stay away from a few windsurfers, but popularity brings great facilities. You can hire wet suits and warmup afterwards at the shoreline café. It also has Scotland’s only award-winning freshwater beach, so you can sunbathe between dips too. RHOSSILI BAY Voted the best beach in Wales and third in the UK, this is a must-swim. This impressive stretch of Celtic coastline, shaped like a giant sea snake, offers three miles of breathtaking views. It’s also a wildlife shelter, with a variety of cliff-nesting birds.

Passage 2 （24-25高三上·江苏盐城·期末） Women scientists around the world have made significant contributions to Stem (science, technology, engineering, and maths). Here are four who pushed boundaries and changed the world. Wu Chienshiung (1912—1997) Born in Taicang, Jiangsu province, Wu took part in the Manhattan Project which helped create the world’s first nuclear weapon. Her famous Wu experiment overturned the theory of parity conservation (宇称理论) in physics. This breakthrough led to a Nobel Prize that was awarded to her male colleagues, but Wu’s critical role in the work was overlooked. Hedy Lamarr (1914—2000) Austria-born Lamarr starred in a lot of Hollywood films and made great success. She was also super smart and a self-taught inventor. During the second world war, Lamarr together with George Antheil, a composer, developed a radio guidance system. The principle of their work is part of the basis of Bluetooth and wireless technology. Katherine Johnson (1918—2020) African American NASA mathematician Johnson’s calculations were critical in getting the first US astronauts to space and back safely. During her 33-year career at NASA, Katherine earned a reputation for mastering complex calculations and was referred to as a “human computer”. Tu Youyou (1930—) Born in Ningbo, Zhejiang province, Tu shared the 2015 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine with two other foreign scientists, for her work in discovering artemisinin, a drug used to treat malaria (疟疾). Her work has saved millions of lives all over the world. Tu is the first Chinese Nobel winner in physiology or medicine and the first female citizen of the PRC to win a Nobel Prize. 4．Besides being an inventor, Hedy Lamarr is also a(n)________.

Passage 3 （24-25高三上·江苏常州·期末） Here are the four best seafood options for your health. Salmon Among fatty fish, salmon has a reputation as being the best for you. On top of the fish’s high omega-3s — short for omega-3 fatty acids, salmon’s pink colour comes from its high levels of astaxanthin, which helps lower cholesterol. Salmon is also a rich source of vitamin B12, which we need to form red blood cells and is a major player in the development and function of brain and nerve cells. Sardines Like salmon, sardines are packed with omega-3s, and they are also an excellent source of calcium, which is an essential part of building strong bones. Sardines also naturally contain vitamin D, which helps the body absorb calcium and contributes to a good mood. As they are usually bought in tin cans, sardines are relatively inexpensive and make a great option if you are shopping on a tight budget. Cod This white fish is rich in phosphorus, a mineral that helps your body use and store energy from food and works with calcium to build strong bones. Phosphorus can also regulate your heartbeat and promote normal muscle and nerve function. “Cod is great for picky eaters who don’t usually like the taste of fish,” says Annie Tsang, a registered dietitian. Rainbow Trout An 85-gram serving of rainbow trout delivers 81 per cent of the recommended daily intake of vitamin D. Plus, this fish is high in healthy fats but low in mercury. Human industrial activity releases mercury into the air, and it eventually comes back down in rain and is absorbed by fish. However, rainbow trout are low in mercury because they are lower on the food chain and so eat fewer polluted fish themselves. 7．Which is the best choice for a family living on relief? A．Salmon. B．Sardines. C．Cod. D．Rainbow Trout. 8．What is special about Rainbow Trout? A．It contains vitamin D． B．It’s good value for money. C．It is free of pollution. D．It takes in the least mercury. 9．Where is the article most probably taken from? A．A certain website. B．A research paper. C．A recipe book. D．A food advertisement.
