Hold your horses慢慢来。根据后文“I should not have said so much about Jack’s family.”可知，作者觉得不应该对杰克的家人说那么多，所以是祸从口出。故选C项。 2. Tom, as well as his parents, ________ in China over the past five years. A. have been living B. has been living C. are living D. is living 【答案】B 【解析】 【详解】考查时态。句意：汤姆和他的父母过去五年一直住在中国。 根据后文over the past five years可知，表示动作从过去某时开始发生，一直延续到现在或离现在不远的时间，并可能延续下去的动作应用现在完成进行时；且主语后接介词短语 as well as，不影响主语的人称和数，谓语动词应根据主语的人称和数来确定，即助动词用has。故选B。 3. The computers made by our company sell well, but several years ago no one could imagine the role in the market that they ________． A. has played B. were to play C. had played D. played 【答案】B 【解析】 【详解】考查动词时态。句意：我们公司生产的电脑卖得很好，但几年前没有人能想象到它们在市场上所扮演的角色。根据several years ago可知，此处陈述过去发生的事情，由imagine可知，后面要跟一个将要发生的动作，因此使用过去将来时，可以使用was/were to do表达，，结合空格前的the role，可知表示过去想象电脑将会起到的作用。故选B。 4. With the rapid development of technology, many traditional skills, including handicrafts, are known ________ in recent years. A. having been forgotten B. to have forgotten C. to have been forgotten D. to be forgotten 【答案】C 【解析】 【详解】考查非谓语动词。句意：随着科技的快速发展，包括手工艺品在内的许多传统技艺近年来已被人们知晓并面临被遗忘的境地。be known to do sth.是固定结构，意为“被知道做某事”，又因为many traditional skills与forget“忘记”之间是被动关系，所以要用不定式的被动语态to be done；再根据时间状语in recent years可知，忘记这个动作已经发生并对现在造成了影响，即“已经被遗忘”，所以要用不定式的完成式的被动语态to have been done。故选C。 5. ______ by the candidate’ s fluent English and sharp insights during the interview, the hiring manager decided to offer her the job immediately. A. Impressing B. To impress C. Impressed D. Having impressed 【答案】C 【解析】 【详解】考查非谓语动词。句意：在面试过程中，这位候选人流利的英语表达和敏锐的洞察力给招聘经理留下了深刻的印象，因此招聘经理当即决定录用她。句中decided为谓语动词，设空处使用非谓语动词，此处impress意为“使印象深刻”与逻辑主语the hiring manager之间是被动关系，故使用过去分词作状语。故选C。 6. ________I'm concerned about most is________ we can collect a huge amount of money in such a short time. A. That; how B. What; that C. What; how D. As; whether 【答案】C 【解析】 【详解】考查主语从句和表语从句。句意：我最担心的是我们怎么能在这么短的时间内筹集到一大笔钱。分析句子可知，第一空处引导主语从句，且主语从句中缺少介词about的宾语，表示内容，所以第一空应用连接代词what；第二空处引导表语从句，且表语从句中不缺任何成分，结合语境可知此处是指“如何”，所以第二空应用连接副词how。故选C。 7. Many parents want their children to participate in various activities ________ they can learn a musical instrument or ballet or other skills that will give them a head start over others. A. where B. what C. which D. when 【答案】A 【解析】 【详解】考查定语从句。句意：许多父母希望他们的孩子参加各种活动，在这些活动中他们可以学习乐器、芭蕾或其他技能，这些技能将使他们比其他人领先一步。“________ they can learn a musical instrument or ballet or other skills”是限制性定语从句，修饰先行词activities，关系词将其代入从句中作地点状语，表示“在这些活动中”，是模糊地点，应用关系副词where从句。故选A项。 8. More than 17,000 scientists and researchers took part in the project, 20%______ were awarded for their remarkable accomplishments. A. to which B. of whom C. to whom D. of which 【答案】B 【解析】 【详解】考查定语从句。句意：超过17000名科学家和研究人员参与了这个项目，其中20%的人因其卓越的成就而获奖。本题考查“介词 + 关系代词”引导的非限制性定语从句，先行词是scientists and researchers，表示人，关系代词作介词宾语，应用关系代词whom。这里指20% of the scientists and researchers，即表示“这些科学家中的20%”，所以介词用of，即of whom引导。故选B项。 9. Jack was on the point of leaving ________ he noticed a man coming out of the room. A. when B. while C. after D. before 【答案】A 【解析】 【详解】考查连词。句意：杰克正要离开，这时他注意到一个人正从房间里走出来。A. when在…时候；当…时；在…期间；B. while当……时候；与……同时；C. after在……之后；D. before在……之前。此处表示的时“杰克要离开的时候，突然他注意到一个人正从房间里走出来”，when引导的时间状语从句，有表示“突然……”，“这时”之意，while当……时候后加的是持续性动词。故选A。 10. When we talk about banning mobile phones in school, we should also look at the good side. In a word, we should not ________. A. kill two birds with one stone B. throw the baby out with the bathwater C. brave the elements D. have butterflies in our stomach 【答案】B 【解析】 【详解】考查习语辨析。句意：当我们谈论禁止在学校使用手机时，我们也应该看到好一面。总之，我们不能不分精华糟粕全盘否定。A. kill two birds with one stone一箭双雕；B. throw the baby out with the bathwater分精华糟粕全盘否定；C. brave the elements不畏严寒；D. have butterflies in our stomach心里感到紧张。根据该句“When we talk about banning mobile phones in school, we should also look at the good side.”可知，对于学生使用手机，不能全盘否定，因此空格处意为“不分精华糟粕全盘否定”。故选B项。 11.

I was scheduled to perform an experiment using a pricey piece of equipment, but I had spent the whole day worrying about the experiment which was on the top of my agenda, and I amazingly longed to shut off my anxious thoughts. So after dinner, I made a cup of hot chocolate, stretched myself on my sofa, and opened a page. Almost instantly, my mind left behind the details of experimental design and stepped into a land of monsters, magic dust, and man-like bears comprising a wonderful world distinct from my daily life. It was exactly what I needed. Growing up, I was virtually never a big fan of novels. My classmates would be crazy about the latest Harry Potter book, while my copy sat collecting dust on a shelf. Instead, I would choose to read through the reference books related to my disciplines for better grades. After I started graduate school, extracurricular reading didn’t appeal to me at all, but I spent most of my time on campus digesting research papers and textbooks and my mind couldn’t handle processing fact-filled nonfiction books at home, too. So I knew that I needed to find a way to enjoy reading again. To help me stick with it, I made a New Year’s resolution: I would read two fiction books per month for the entire year. The result was an almost instant appreciation of fiction, along with many unexpected results including ones that have benefited my schoolwork. What surprised me the most was how much I learned. Some of the best books I read were historical fictional stories happening in a realistic historical setting. I learned about life in different countries, as well as struggles people there faced during difficult periods in their histories. The books have helped me build sympathy and understanding, with an unexpected benefit: I’ve started to think more deeply about the diversity of issues in the scientific community and could serve it, heart and soul. 41. What did the author do to wipe out the anxiety? A. He drowned it in chocolate. B. He conducted an experiment. C. He slept on the sofa leisurely. D. He escaped into a fantasy world. 42. What does the author mean by the underlined part in paragraph 2? A. Reading novels was a waste of time. B. Reading a good book was time well spent. C. He was too busy to take good care of his books. D. The Harry Potter book wasn’t as good as expected. 43. How did the New Year’s resolution benefit the author? A. More sympathy went out to him. B. His moral values were strengthened. C. He learned much about religious diversity. D. He gained new insight into his academic discipline. 44. What does the author mean by “unexpected benefit” in the last paragraph? A. The author’s love for historical fictional stories. B. The author’s enhanced interest and dedication to the scientific community. C. The author’s growing knowledge of the world. D. The author’s courage and confidence in coping with difficulties. 45. What’s the best title of the text? A. Reading: A Lifelong Hobby B. The Power of Research Papers C. Novels: Love at Second Sight D.

The result was an almost instant appreciation of fiction, along with many unexpected results including ones that have benefited my schoolwork.(为了帮助我坚持下去，我制定了一个新年计划：全年每月读两本小说。结果是我几乎立刻就欣赏上了小说，还带来了许多意想不到的结果，包括一些对我的学业有益的结果)”可知，文章主要讲述了作者从不喜欢读小说到爱上读小说的转变过程，C项“Novels: Love at Second Sight(小说：再读方觉心动)”能够概括文章内容。故选C项。 C Fish often travel in schools. How and why each fish does what it does is what makes their schooling so puzzling to scientists. Now scientists think they have a clue as to why schooling is so common. It saves the fish energy—lots of energy. A new study has compared the energy a fish uses as it swims. And moving in a school reduced the energy a fish used by more than half compared to when it swam alone, it found. “The whole idea of measuring what it costs animals to move is an important one,” says George Lauder, a fish biologist at Harvard University in Cambridge, Mass., and an author of the new study. Many physiologists have been looking into this for years, he notes. “This is the first paper, I think, that’s really measured that comprehensively.” Lauder and Zhang, also at Harvard, worked with giant danio, small fish that love to swim. Sometimes the team put eight at a time into a water tank shaped a bit like a racetrack. Other times, they just put in a single fish. The danio didn’t loop (绕圈) around the tank like race cars. Instead, they swam in one spot, like a runner on a treadmill (跑步机), as a motor pushed the tank’s water around, creating a current. As the fish swam, a special device called a respirometer (呼吸器) measured how much oxygen they used. Oxygen helps to fuel muscles. For example, people who sprint (短跑) use a lot of oxygen. Afterward, they often need a few minutes to recover and catch their breath. Here, the researchers used oxygen as a gauge (测量标准) of how much energy the fish used to swim in place. Researchers filmed giant danio in an experimental flow tank to study their movements and energy use. To make them swim fast—like a sprinter—the researchers increased the speed of the circulating water current. When they slowed the water, the fish slowed too. Schooling fish used less oxygen than when they swam alone. And, they took less time to recover from a sprint. In other words, they had an easier time “catching their breath” after schooling. By schooling, fish can save their energy for other important things, says Frank Fish. He works at West Chester University in Pennsylvania, where he studies the dynamics of motion in animals. For instance, if fish are young, they can put that energy into growth. As adults, they can use it to reproduce or to avoid predators (捕食者). 46. In writing Paragraph 1, the author aims to ________. A. raise a question. B. make a comparison. C propose a definition. D. present an argument. 47. According to Paragraph 2, what is the key to the study? A. Reducing the energy a fish uses while swimming. B. How to force the fish to swim in schools. C. Measuring the cost of animal movement. D. How to measure fish swimming habits comprehensively. 48. What can we learn from Paragraph 3? A. Giant danio loves to swim in circle. B. It was no way to measure how much oxygen the danio consumed. C. The danio usually swam in a fixed spot. D. The danio used little energy while sprinting. 49. What is the author’s purpose in writing Paragraph 4? A. To stress the necessity of this experiment. B. To clarify the experimental method and result. C. To suggest a way to measure the energy used by fish. D. To emphasize the importance of the experiment. 50. What makes the best title for the passage? A. An Experiment with Giant Danio. B. Swimming in Schools Lets Fish Save Lots of Energy. C. How does Giant Danio Swim? D. Giant Danio Likes Travelling in Schools. 【答案】46. D 47. C 48. C 49. B 50. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了科学家们通过实验表明鱼经常成群结队地游动是为了节省能量。 【46题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“Fish often travel in schools. How and why each fish does what it does is what makes their schooling so puzzling to scientists. Now scientists think they have a clue as to why schooling is so common. It saves the fish energy—lots of energy.(鱼经常成群结队地游动。每条鱼的行为方式和原因使得科学家们对它们的鱼群行为感到困惑。现在，科学家们认为他们找到了为什么学校教育如此普遍的线索。它节省了鱼的能量——大量的能量。)”可推知，第一段作者主要提出了一个论点，故选D。 【47题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“The whole idea of measuring what it costs animals to move is an important one(衡量动物移动成本的整个想法是一个重要的想法)”可知，根据第2段可知，研究的关键衡量动物移动的成本。故选C。 【48题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“The danio didn’t loop (绕圈) around the tank like race cars. Instead, they swam in one spot, like a runner on a treadmill (跑步机), as a motor pushed the tank’s water around, creating a current.(丹尼奥鱼不像赛车那样绕着坦克转一圈。相反，它们在一个地方游泳，就像跑步机上的跑步者一样，电机推动水箱中的水，产生水流)”可知，达尼奥鱼通常在固定地点游泳。故选C。 【49题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段中“Researchers filmed giant danio in an experimental flow tank to study their movements and energy use. To make them swim fast — like a sprinter — the researchers increased the speed of the circulating water current. When they slowed the water, the fish slowed too. Schooling fish used less oxygen than when they swam alone. And, they took less time to recover from a sprint. In other words, they had an easier time “catching their breath” after schooling.(研究人员在实验流动池中拍摄了巨型达尼奥鱼，以研究它们的运动和能量使用。为了让它们像短跑运动员一样游得更快，研究人员提高了循环水流的速度。当他们放慢水流速度时，鱼也放慢速度。成群的鱼比单独游动时消耗的氧气更少。而且，他们从冲刺中恢复的时间更少。换句话说，他们成群后更容易“喘口气”)”可知，作者写第4段的目的是明确实验方法和结果。故选B。 【50题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第一段“Fish often travel in schools. How and why each fish does what it does is what makes their schooling so puzzling to scientists. Now scientists think they have a clue as to why schooling is so common. It saves the fish energy—lots of energy.(鱼经常成群结队地游动。每条鱼的行为方式和原因使得科学家们对它们的鱼群行为感到困惑。现在，科学家们认为他们找到了为什么学校教育如此普遍的线索。它节省了鱼的能量——大量的能量。)”可知，文章主要讲了实验表明，鱼群游泳可以节省大量能量，B项“鱼群游泳可以节省大量能量”适合作文章标题，故选B。 D Many people believe that multitasking is an efficient way to get more done in less time, assuming it boosts productivity in both personal and professional lives. This common perception suggests that handling multiple tasks at once allows individuals to maximize their time. However, research and real-world examples suggest that this belief might be misguided. Supporters of multitasking claim that it allows people to combine various activities into a smooth workflow, potentially resulting in improved time management. For example, a student might prepare for an exam while listening to music, thinking it helps them stay focused, or a professional might answer emails during a conference call, believing it makes their workday more efficient. The concept is that by handling multiple tasks at once, one can achieve more within the same time frame. However, numerous studies have shown that multitasking often has the opposite effect. Research conducted by Stanford University found that people who frequently multitask are actually less efficient at handling multiple tasks than those who focus on one task at a time. These multitaskers struggle to organize thoughts and ignore unnecessary information, leading to decreased productivity. The American Psychological Association also notes that the cognitive cost of switching tasks can consume up to 40% of productive time, which significantly undermines efficiency. Real-world examples show the negative aspects of multitasking. A driver texting while navigating traffic is more likely to have an accident due to divided attention. Similarly, an employee constantly switching between tasks may produce lower quality work and take longer to complete projects. In contrast, companies that encourage focused work periods, such as using the Pomodoro Technique, report improved productivity and job satisfaction among employees. To truly embrace single-tasking, several strategies can be applied. Prioritizing tasks by urgency and importance is key, using tools like Trello or Asana to track progress. Techniques such as the Pomodoro Technique, which involves working on a single task for 25 minutes followed by a short break, help maintain focus and prevent burnout. Minimizing distractions is also crucial. Establishing “quiet hours” for focused work without interruptions, and setting specific times for checking emails, can help maintain concentration. Additionally, building a workplace culture that values quality over quantity encourages thorough task completion. Reevaluating our approach to productivity is essential. As more people recognize the benefits of focused work, a shift towards more effective task management may occur, leading to better outcomes for individuals and organizations alike. By putting these strategies into action, we can build a work environment that is more productive and rewarding. 51. What do many people believe about multitasking according to the first paragraph? A. It reduces stress. B. It enhances creativity C. It improves social skills. D. It boosts productivity. 52. What do supporters of multitasking believe it helps achieve? A. Better teamwork. B. Improved time management. C. Enhanced focus. D. Greater relaxation. 53. What does the underline word “undermines” mean in Paragraph 3? A. Reduces. B. Measures. C. Achieves. D. Encourages. 54. What is one impact of multitasking mentioned in the fourth paragraph? A. It improves job satisfaction. B. It reduces task completion time. C. It causes divided attention. D. It increases productivity. 55. What is the author’s intention in writing this passage? A. To describe the history of multitasking. B. To explain how to multitask effectively. C. To share personal experiences with multitasking. D. To present research on the downsides of multitasking. 【答案】51. D 52. B 53. A 54. C 55. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇议论文。许多人认为多任务处理能提高效率，但研究和实例表明这种观点可能是错误的，文章谈论了多任务处理的负面影响以及专注单任务的策略。 【51题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“Many people believe that multitasking is an efficient way to get more done in less time, assuming it boosts productivity in both personal and professional lives.(许多人认为多任务处理是一种在更短时间内完成更多工作的有效方法，认为它能提高个人和职业生活中的生产力)”可知，许多人认为多任务处理能提高生产力，故选D项。 【52题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“Supporters of multitasking claim that it allows people to combine various activities into a smooth workflow, potentially resulting in improved time management.(多任务处理的支持者声称，它允许人们将各种活动组合成一个顺畅的工作流程，可能会导致改进的时间管理)”可知，多任务处理的支持者认为它有助于改进时间管理，故选B项。 【53题详解】 词义猜测题。根据第三段中划线词句“The American Psychological Association also notes that the cognitive cost of switching tasks can consume up to 40% of productive time, which significantly…efficiency.(美国心理协会还指出，切换任务的认知成本可能会消耗高达40%的生产时间，这大大……效率)”可知，消耗大量生产时间会降低效率，可推理出“undermines”的意思是“降低”，故选A项。 【54题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“A driver texting while navigating traffic is more likely to have an accident due to divided attention. Similarly, an employee constantly switching between tasks may produce lower quality work and take longer to complete projects.(一个在交通行驶中发短信的司机由于注意力分散更有可能发生事故。同样，一个不断在任务之间切换的员工可能会生产出质量较低的工作，并且需要更长的时间来完成项目)”可知，多任务处理会导致注意力分散，故选C项。 【55题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“Many people believe that multitasking is an efficient way to get more done in less time, assuming it boosts productivity in both personal and professional lives.(许多人认为多任务处理是一种在更短时间内完成更多工作的有效方法，认为它能提高个人和职业生活中的生产力)”、第二段“Supporters of multitasking claim that it allows people to combine various activities into a smooth workflow, potentially resulting in improved time management.(多任务处理的支持者声称，它允许人们将各种活动组合成一个顺畅的工作流程，可能会导致改进的时间管理)”以及最后一段“Reevaluating our approach to productivity is essential. As more people recognize the benefits of focused work, a shift towards more effective task management may occur, leading to better outcomes for individuals and organizations alike. By putting these strategies into action, we can build a work environment that is more productive and rewarding(重新评估我们对生产力的方法是至关重要的。随着越来越多的人认识到专注工作的好处，可能会发生向更有效的任务管理转变，从而为个人和组织带来更好的结果。通过实施这些策略，我们可以建立一个更有效率、更令人满意的工作环境)”可知，文章开篇提出很多人对多任务处理提高效率的错误认知，接着通过研究和实例说明多任务处理的负面影响，最后介绍专注单一任务的策略，整体围绕多任务处理的缺点展开。可推理出作者写这篇文章的目的是展示关于多任务处理缺点的研究，故选D项。 五、阅读表达（本大题共5小题，每小题2分，共10分） 阅读短文，按照题目要求用英语回答问题。 Ed Jackson’s team were attempting to scale a Himalayan peak. However, weeks into their expedition, they found themselves trapped overnight without water, food, or tents, facing temperatures around -30℃. To stay alive, they took turns keeping each other awake, knowing that falling asleep could be fatal. Despite the extreme conditions, Jackson and his team managed to survive the night, their spirits unbroken. That night on the mountain wasn’t Jackson’s first brush with death. Five years earlier, as a professional rugby player, Jackson suffered a severe neck injury during a match, which nearly cost him his life. Doctors warned him that he might spend the rest of his life in a wheelchair. This forced him to retire from rugby prematurely. The injury was a devastating (令人震惊的) blow, but Jackson was determined not to let it define him. Luckily, Jackson managed to discard his wheelchair six months after the accident. To commemorate the first anniversary of his injury, he set an ambitious goal: to climb Mount Snowdon, the highest peak in Wales, despite still relying on crutches. The climb was exhausting, but Jackson’s determination and spirit carried him to the summit. This marked the beginning of his journey to conquer higher mountains. Four years later, he found himself in the Himalayas, facing challenges that tested his perseverance. The physical and mental trials Jackson endured in the mountains profoundly impacted his recovery. Realising the potential benefits for others, he co-founded the charity Millimeters to Mountains (M2M) with his wife Lois and friend Oily Barkley. M2M offers individuals who have suffered physical or psychological injuries the opportunity to engage in challenging adventures worldwide, harnessing the healing power of nature. Through these adventures, participants find strength, hope, and a renewed sense of purpose. One participant, Alex, a former soldier who lost both legs, found new strength and purpose after completing a challenging hike in the Alps, showing the transformative power of nature and adventure. Jackson reflects, “I once felt utterly hopeless, believing my life was over due to my injury. But I truly believe that what I’m doing, what we’re building with the charity, and the incredible stories of those we help can spark a glimmer of hope in anyone, reminding us all that no matter how dark or hopeless things may seem in the moment, there’s always a way to turn our lives around.” Jackson’s journey from a near-death experience to founding a charity that helps others overcome their own challenges is a testament to the power of resilience and the human spirit. 56.

I was scheduled to perform an experiment using a pricey piece of equipment, but I had spent the whole day worrying about the experiment which was on the top of my agenda, and I amazingly longed to shut off my anxious thoughts. So after dinner, I made a cup of hot chocolate, stretched myself on my sofa, and opened a page. Almost instantly, my mind left behind the details of experimental design and stepped into a land of monsters, magic dust, and man-like bears comprising a wonderful world distinct from my daily life. It was exactly what I needed. Growing up, I was virtually never a big fan of novels. My classmates would be crazy about the latest Harry Potter book, while my copy sat collecting dust on a shelf. Instead, I would choose to read through the reference books related to my disciplines for better grades. After I started graduate school, extracurricular reading didn’t appeal to me at all, but I spent most of my time on campus digesting research papers and textbooks and my mind couldn’t handle processing fact-filled nonfiction books at home, too. So I knew that I needed to find a way to enjoy reading again. To help me stick with it, I made a New Year’s resolution: I would read two fiction books per month for the entire year. The result was an almost instant appreciation of fiction, along with many unexpected results including ones that have benefited my schoolwork. What surprised me the most was how much I learned. Some of the best books I read were historical fictional stories happening in a realistic historical setting. I learned about life in different countries, as well as struggles people there faced during difficult periods in their histories. The books have helped me build sympathy and understanding, with an unexpected benefit: I’ve started to think more deeply about the diversity of issues in the scientific community and could serve it, heart and soul. 41. What did the author do to wipe out the anxiety? A. He drowned it in chocolate. B. He conducted an experiment. C. He slept on the sofa leisurely. D. He escaped into a fantasy world. 42. What does the author mean by the underlined part in paragraph 2? A. Reading novels was a waste of time. B. Reading a good book was time well spent. C. He was too busy to take good care of his books. D. The Harry Potter book wasn’t as good as expected. 43. How did the New Year’s resolution benefit the author? A. More sympathy went out to him. B. His moral values were strengthened. C. He learned much about religious diversity. D. He gained new insight into his academic discipline. 44. What does the author mean by “unexpected benefit” in the last paragraph? A. The author’s love for historical fictional stories. B. The author’s enhanced interest and dedication to the scientific community. C. The author’s growing knowledge of the world. D. The author’s courage and confidence in coping with difficulties. 45. What’s the best title of the text? A. Reading: A Lifelong Hobby B. The Power of Research Papers C. Novels: Love at Second Sight D. The Benefits of History Reading C Fish often travel in schools. How and why each fish does what it does is what makes their schooling so puzzling to scientists. Now scientists think they have a clue as to why schooling is so common. It saves the fish energy—lots of energy. A new study has compared the energy a fish uses as it swims. And moving in a school reduced the energy a fish used by more than half compared to when it swam alone, it found. “The whole idea of measuring what it costs animals to move is an important one,” says George Lauder, a fish biologist at Harvard University in Cambridge, Mass., and an author of the new study. Many physiologists have been looking into this for years, he notes. “This is the first paper, I think, that’s really measured that comprehensively.” Lauder and Zhang, also at Harvard, worked with giant danio, small fish that love to swim. Sometimes the team put eight at a time into a water tank shaped a bit like a racetrack. Other times, they just put in a single fish. The danio didn’t loop (绕圈) around the tank like race cars. Instead, they swam in one spot, like a runner on a treadmill (跑步机), as a motor pushed the tank’s water around, creating a current. As the fish swam, a special device called a respirometer (呼吸器) measured how much oxygen they used. Oxygen helps to fuel muscles. For example, people who sprint (短跑) use a lot of oxygen. Afterward, they often need a few minutes to recover and catch their breath. Here, the researchers used oxygen as a gauge (测量标准) of how much energy the fish used to swim in place. Researchers filmed giant danio in an experimental flow tank to study their movements and energy use. To make them swim fast—like a sprinter—the researchers increased the speed of the circulating water current. When they slowed the water, the fish slowed too. Schooling fish used less oxygen than when they swam alone. And, they took less time to recover from a sprint. In other words, they had an easier time “catching their breath” after schooling. By schooling, fish can save their energy for other important things, says Frank Fish. He works at West Chester University in Pennsylvania, where he studies the dynamics of motion in animals. For instance, if fish are young, they can put that energy into growth. As adults, they can use it to reproduce or to avoid predators (捕食者). 46. In writing Paragraph 1, the author aims to ________. A. raise a question. B. make a comparison. C. propose a definition. D. present an argument. 47. According to Paragraph 2 what is the key to the study? A. Reducing the energy a fish uses while swimming. B. How to force the fish to swim in schools. C. Measuring the cost of animal movement. D. How to measure fish swimming habits comprehensively. 48 What can we learn from Paragraph 3? A. Giant danio loves to swim in circle. B. It was no way to measure how much oxygen the danio consumed. C. The danio usually swam in a fixed spot. D. The danio used little energy while sprinting. 49. What is the author’s purpose in writing Paragraph 4? A. To stress the necessity of this experiment. B. To clarify the experimental method and result. C. To suggest a way to measure the energy used by fish. D. To emphasize the importance of the experiment. 50. What makes the best title for the passage? A. An Experiment with Giant Danio. B. Swimming in Schools Lets Fish Save Lots of Energy. C. How does Giant Danio Swim? D. Giant Danio Likes Travelling in Schools. D Many people believe that multitasking is an efficient way to get more done in less time, assuming it boosts productivity in both personal and professional lives. This common perception suggests that handling multiple tasks at once allows individuals to maximize their time. However, research and real-world examples suggest that this belief might be misguided. Supporters of multitasking claim that it allows people to combine various activities into a smooth workflow, potentially resulting in improved time management. For example, a student might prepare for an exam while listening to music, thinking it helps them stay focused, or a professional might answer emails during a conference call, believing it makes their workday more efficient. The concept is that by handling multiple tasks at once, one can achieve more within the same time frame. However, numerous studies have shown that multitasking often has the opposite effect. Research conducted by Stanford University found that people who frequently multitask are actually less efficient at handling multiple tasks than those who focus on one task at a time. These multitaskers struggle to organize thoughts and ignore unnecessary information, leading to decreased productivity. The American Psychological Association also notes that the cognitive cost of switching tasks can consume up to 40% of productive time, which significantly undermines efficiency. Real-world examples show the negative aspects of multitasking. A driver texting while navigating traffic is more likely to have an accident due to divided attention. Similarly, an employee constantly switching between tasks may produce lower quality work and take longer to complete projects. In contrast, companies that encourage focused work periods, such as using the Pomodoro Technique, report improved productivity and job satisfaction among employees. To truly embrace single-tasking, several strategies can be applied. Prioritizing tasks by urgency and importance is key, using tools like Trello or Asana to track progress. Techniques such as the Pomodoro Technique, which involves working on a single task for 25 minutes followed by a short break, help maintain focus and prevent burnout. Minimizing distractions is also crucial. Establishing “quiet hours” for focused work without interruptions, and setting specific times for checking emails, can help maintain concentration. Additionally, building a workplace culture that values quality over quantity encourages thorough task completion. Reevaluating our approach to productivity is essential. As more people recognize the benefits of focused work, a shift towards more effective task management may occur, leading to better outcomes for individuals and organizations alike. By putting these strategies into action, we can build a work environment that is more productive and rewarding. 51. What do many people believe about multitasking according to the first paragraph? A. It reduces stress. B. It enhances creativity C. It improves social skills. D. It boosts productivity. 52. What do supporters of multitasking believe it helps achieve? A. Better teamwork. B. Improved time management. C. Enhanced focus. D. Greater relaxation. 53. What does the underline word “undermines” mean in Paragraph 3? A. Reduces. B. Measures. C. Achieves. D. Encourages. 54. What is one impact of multitasking mentioned in the fourth paragraph? A. It improves job satisfaction. B. It reduces task completion time. C. It causes divided attention. D. It increases productivity. 55. What is the author’s intention in writing this passage? A. To describe the history of multitasking. B. To explain how to multitask effectively. C. To share personal experiences with multitasking. D. To present research on the downsides of multitasking. 五、阅读表达（本大题共5小题，每小题2分，共10分） 阅读短文，按照题目要求用英语回答问题。 Ed Jackson’s team were attempting to scale a Himalayan peak. However, weeks into their expedition, they found themselves trapped overnight without water, food, or tents, facing temperatures around -30℃. To stay alive, they took turns keeping each other awake, knowing that falling asleep could be fatal. Despite the extreme conditions, Jackson and his team managed to survive the night, their spirits unbroken. That night on the mountain wasn’t Jackson’s first brush with death. Five years earlier, as a professional rugby player, Jackson suffered a severe neck injury during a match, which nearly cost him his life. Doctors warned him that he might spend the rest of his life in a wheelchair. This forced him to retire from rugby prematurely. The injury was a devastating (令人震惊的) blow, but Jackson was determined not to let it define him. Luckily, Jackson managed to discard his wheelchair six months after the accident. To commemorate the first anniversary of his injury, he set an ambitious goal: to climb Mount Snowdon, the highest peak in Wales, despite still relying on crutches. The climb was exhausting, but Jackson’s determination and spirit carried him to the summit. This marked the beginning of his journey to conquer higher mountains. Four years later, he found himself in the Himalayas, facing challenges that tested his perseverance. The physical and mental trials Jackson endured in the mountains profoundly impacted his recovery. Realising the potential benefits for others, he co-founded the charity Millimeters to Mountains (M2M) with his wife Lois and friend Oily Barkley. M2M offers individuals who have suffered physical or psychological injuries the opportunity to engage in challenging adventures worldwide, harnessing the healing power of nature. Through these adventures, participants find strength, hope, and a renewed sense of purpose. One participant, Alex, a former soldier who lost both legs, found new strength and purpose after completing a challenging hike in the Alps, showing the transformative power of nature and adventure. Jackson reflects, “I once felt utterly hopeless, believing my life was over due to my injury. But I truly believe that what I’m doing, what we’re building with the charity, and the incredible stories of those we help can spark a glimmer of hope in anyone, reminding us all that no matter how dark or hopeless things may seem in the moment, there’s always a way to turn our lives around.” Jackson’s journey from a near-death experience to founding a charity that helps others overcome their own challenges is a testament to the power of resilience and the human spirit. 56.
