B Despite being born without hands, 12-year-old Aubrey Sauvie has never let limitations hold her back. From mastering martial arts (武术) to expressing herself through art, she advances bravely in a world that often prioritizes physical ability. However, her passion for drumming presented a special barrier: how could she hold the drumsticks without slipping out? Aware of Aubrey’s problem, her band director proposed her for Tech Engineering for Kids, a program which is run through a junior-level engineering course of the Tennessee Tech University. It involves students working in teams to design a form of custom assistive technology for children with special needs. Up to now, they have created toys and devices for children with sensory disorder. Learning about Aubrey’s story, a team of ten engineering students of the program decided to create 3D-printed prostheses (义肢) specifically designed for drumming. They would send a certain design to Aubrey, who would then provide feedback, like “I think this is good, but it's a little bit long. Could it be shortened?’ or “It’s a little bit hot on my arm. Could you potentially, like, make it a little bit more breathable?” The team created about six iterations of the prostheses until they were satisfied with the final product, which was not only hard-wearing but also flexible, allowing for drumstick attachments on both arms. This innovation not only improved sound quality but also provided the flexibility needed for advanced drumming techniques. Aubrey was very grateful for this technical solution. “I was really excited that I was going to be able to use the new prostheses and try them out,” she remarked. “They are becoming a very useful and resourceful tool to help me with my drumming.” With her newfound drumming freedom, Aubrey sets her sights on mastering a full drum set. Meanwhile. Tech Engineering for Kids readies itself to extend its reach, bridging the gap between limitations and ambitions through technology. 4. What troubles Aubrey a lot? A. Lacking passion for sports. B. Owning no talent for music. C. Inaccessibility to expert training. D. Inability to operate an instrument. 5. What is Tech Engineering for Kids intended to do? A. Offer engineering courses. B. Design sustainable devices. C. Create personalized adaptive tools. D. Improve overall users’ experience. 6. Which can replace the underlined word “iterations” in Paragraph 3? A. Uses. B. Versions. C. Materials. D. Kinds. 7. What does the text mainly tell us? A. Limitation brings down people’ creativity. B. Ambition fuels the desires of the disabled. C. Science breaks down the barriers among people. D. Technology empowers people to pursue dreams. C Is text-messaging driving us apart? These days, we talk to each other a lot with our thumbs — sending six billion text messages a day, and likely a few billion more on services like Whats App. But some worry that so much messaging leads to less communication. For instance, when hanging out with friends, we’d be texting secretively at the same time, pretending to maintain eye contact but mentally somewhere else. New technologies often upset the way we relate to one another, of course. But such division caused by texting has a strong echo in the arguments we had over telephone a hundred years ago. The small device gave us a new way to contact one another and quickly promote new forms of socializing. Callers arranged regular “visiting” calls, dialing remote family to catch up on news. Soon, though, social critics thought it would be so easy to talk that we’d never leave each other alone. Others worried that the telephone sped up life, demanding instant reactions. The use of the telephone gave little room for reflection. It produced a craziness in the ordinary concerns of life which didn’t make for domestic happiness. “We shall soon be nothing but transparent piles of jelly (果冻) to each other,” a London writer moaned in 1897. However, nowadays the telephone call seems like a throwback to a gentler era. When Jenna Birch, a communication professor at the University of Iowa, started dating a man who insisted on calling her on the phone, she found it warm and delightful. So she doesn’t think the shift to texting has degraded our interactions. According to her study, teenagers who text the most are also those who spend the most time face to face with friends. Communication, it seems, brings more communication, and — as she argues — just because talk happens in text doesn’t mean it’s not meaningful. Michéle Martin of Carleton University, thinks we’re living through a replay of the telephone, where the things that made it valuable — instant communications — are the same that made it annoying. “People believe they are liberated because they can bring the mobile phone everywhere,” Martin says. “But at the same time, they are slaves to it.” 8. What’s the function of the first paragraph? A. To introduce the topic. B. To describe a scene. C. To offer an argument. D. To issue a warning. 9. According to paragraph 4, what does telephone use cause? A. People experience very tight schedule. B. People tend to lack individuality. C. People become narrow and uninformed. D. People lose the ability to reflect. 10 What can we learn from paragraph 5? A. Telephone calls are particularly welcomed in dating. B. Teenagers are addicted to communicating by texting. C. The shift to texting is destructive to face-to-face time. D. The meaning of communication goes beyond medium. 11. What’s the best title for the text? A. Oh My God! We’ve Been Here Before! B. Gone with the Wind, Dear Texting! C. Life is Too Short for So Many Texting. D. Oh, Telephone, a Tale of Two Sides. D Just as damaged teeth can be replaced with gold crowns (齿冠), scientists are exploring how gold can be used to repair damaged parts of the brain. Scientists at Linkoping University in Sweden said that a “brain of gold” might just be what we need to fight nervous system diseases. The plan is to put gold electrodes (电极) into the affected part of the brain. They will act as “telephone operators” between nerve cells and electronic medical devices, enabling communication so that the nervous system can function normally. Treatment plans that involve connecting medical devices to the brain already exist. However, the electrodes used are usually made of hard metals, while the brain is like a jelly that “shakes” at the body’s slightest movement. “As the body is constantly in motion, achieving close contact between something that is hard and something that is soft and breakable becomes a problem,” explained Klas Tybrandt, one of the scientists. This is why the Swedish scientists are using a new material called “gold nanowires” (金纳米线). As the name suggests, these are long, extremely thin gold threads — 1,000 times thinner than human hair. By putting them into rubber, the scientists have successfully created electrodes that are soft enough to connect comfortably with the human brain. Gold can be made into structures as small as nanowires. According to Live Science gold can be stretched, pressed or even rolled into all kinds of shapes without breaking. What’s more, gold doesn’t react with other chemicals in the human brain, making it a safe choice. Once placed in the brain, gold nanowires can last for at least three years, which is longer than many materials currently in use. 12. What role will gold electrodes play in treating nervous system diseases? A. Replacing damaged nerve cells. B. Serving as a communication link. C. Activating different brain regions. D. Protecting the brain’s unaffected parts. 13. What can we learn about gold nanowires? A. They are harder than rubber. B. They are as thin as human hair. C. They can be placed into the brain. D. They are in the final stage of development. 14. Why is gold a safe choice for use in the brain? A. It can be stretched by the brain. B. It can be made into various shapes. C. It is being used to create soft electrodes. D. It has no negative impact on the brain’s functions. 15. What is the main idea of the passage? A. The unique properties of gold nanowires. B. The history of gold use in the medical field. C. The current applications of gold in the brain. D. The potential use of gold in nervous system treatment. 第二节(共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Luck can really feel random, and it can be tough to know how to get good luck.

Communication, it seems, brings more communication, and — as she argues — just because talk happens in text doesn’t mean it’s not meaningful. Michéle Martin of Carleton University, thinks we’re living through a replay of the telephone, where the things that made it valuable — instant communications — are the same that made it annoying. “People believe they are liberated because they can bring the mobile phone everywhere,” Martin says. “But at the same time, they are slaves to it.” 8. What’s the function of the first paragraph? A. To introduce the topic. B. To describe a scene. C. To offer an argument. D. To issue a warning. 9. According to paragraph 4, what does telephone use cause? A. People experience very tight schedule. B. People tend to lack individuality. C. People become narrow and uninformed. D. People lose the ability to reflect. 10. What can we learn from paragraph 5? A. Telephone calls are particularly welcomed in dating. B. Teenagers are addicted to communicating by texting. C. The shift to texting is destructive to face-to-face time. D. The meaning of communication goes beyond medium. 11. What’s the best title for the text? A. Oh My God! We’ve Been Here Before! B. Gone with the Wind, Dear Texting! C. Life is Too Short for So Many Texting. D. Oh Telephone, a Tale of Two Sides. 【答案】8. A 9. B 10. D 11. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章主要讨论了短信交流是否导致人与人之间疏远，通过对比短信与电话交流的影响来探讨这一问题。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“Is text-messaging driving us apart? These days, we talk to each other a lot with our thumbs — sending six billion text messages a day, and likely a few billion more on services like Whats App.(短信正在让我们疏远吗？如今，我们经常用拇指互相交谈——每天发送60亿条短信，而在Whats App等服务上可能还会多发送几十亿条。)”可知，第一段通过提出“短信是否让我们疏远”的问题，并给出当前短信发送量的数据，来引出文章要讨论的主题。故选A。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“ Soon, though, social critics thought it would be so easy to talk that we’d never leave each other alone. Others worried that the telephone sped up life, demanding instant reactions. The use of the telephone gave little room for reflection. It produced a craziness in the ordinary concerns of life which didn’t make for domestic happiness. “We shall soon be nothing but transparent piles of jelly ( 果冻 ) to each other,” a London writer moaned in 1897.(然而不久之后，社会评论家们认为，仅仅通过通话就能交流得如此顺畅，以至于我们根本无法独处片刻。还有人担心电话会加快生活节奏，要求人们立即做出反应。电话的使用几乎没有给人们留下思考的空间。它让日常生活中原本平凡的事情变得混乱不堪，这不利于家庭的幸福。“我们很快就会变成彼此透明的果冻般的存在了。”1897 年，一位伦敦作家如此哀叹道。)”可知，文章第四段提到，反对电话的人认为，电话使得人们交流过于便捷，会让人失去独处的时间，还会加速生活节奏，要求人们即时回应，且缺乏思考空间，甚至认为这会让人们在日常事务中变得 “疯狂”，一位伦敦作家还抱怨 “我们很快会变成彼此面前透明的果冻”，暗示人们会因电话失去个性和隐私。A 选项 “日程紧张” 并非原文强调的核心问题；C 选项 “视野狭窄、信息闭塞” 与电话促进沟通的特点相悖；D 选项 “失去思考能力” 原文表述为 “缺乏思考空间（gave little room for reflection）”，并非 “失去思考能力”，表述不准确，故 B 选项正确。电话的使用导致人们往往缺乏个性。故选B。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据第五段“However, nowadays the telephone call seems like a throwback to a gentler era. When Jenna Birch, a communication professor at the University of Iowa, started dating a man who insisted on calling her on the phone, she found it warm and delightful. So she doesn’t think the shift to texting has degraded our interactions. According to her study, teenagers who text the most are also those who spend the most time face to face with friends. Communication, it seems, brings more communication, and — as she argues — just because talk happens in text doesn’t mean it’s not meaningful.(但如今，打电话反而像是回到了更温和的旧时光。爱荷华大学的传播学教授珍娜・伯奇曾和一个坚持打电话联系她的人约会，她觉得这种方式温暖又愉快。因此她认为，转向短信交流并没有降低我们互动的质量。根据她的研究，发短信最多的青少年，也是和朋友面对面相处时间最长的群体。看来，沟通只会带来更多沟通——而且正如她所说，不能仅仅因为交流是通过短信进行的，就否定它的意义。)”可知，沟通的意义超越了媒介本身。故选D。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文可知，文章首先提出短信是否导致人与人之间疏远的问题，然后通过对比短信与电话交流的影响，指出新技术往往会改变我们彼此相处的方式，但短信交流并不一定意味着沟通没有意义。文章最后提到，我们正在经历电话时代的重演，其中使电话有价值的东西——即时通讯——也是使它令人讨厌的东西。因此，A选项“Oh My God! We’ve Been Here Before!(天哪！我们以前来过这里！)”最符合文章主旨，既表达了短信与电话交流影响的相似性，又带有一种对历史重演的感慨，适合用作标题。故选A。 D Just as damaged teeth can be replaced with gold crowns (齿冠), scientists are exploring how gold can be used to repair damaged parts of the brain. Scientists at Linkoping University in Sweden said that a “brain of gold” might just be what we need to fight nervous system diseases. The plan is to put gold electrodes (电极) into the affected part of the brain. They will act as “telephone operators” between nerve cells and electronic medical devices, enabling communication so that the nervous system can function normally. Treatment plans that involve connecting medical devices to the brain already exist. However, the electrodes used are usually made of hard metals, while the brain is like a jelly that “shakes” at the body’s slightest movement. “As the body is constantly in motion, achieving close contact between something that is hard and something that is soft and breakable becomes a problem,” explained Klas Tybrandt, one of the scientists. This is why the Swedish scientists are using a new material called “gold nanowires” (金纳米线). As the name suggests, these are long, extremely thin gold threads — 1,000 times thinner than human hair. By putting them into rubber, the scientists have successfully created electrodes that are soft enough to connect comfortably with the human brain. Gold can be made into structures as small as nanowires. According to Live Science, gold can be stretched, pressed or even rolled into all kinds of shapes without breaking. What’s more, gold doesn’t react with other chemicals in the human brain, making it a safe choice. Once placed in the brain, gold nanowires can last for at least three years, which is longer than many materials currently in use. 12. What role will gold electrodes play in treating nervous system diseases? A. Replacing damaged nerve cells. B. Serving as a communication link. C. Activating different brain regions. D. Protecting the brain’s unaffected parts. 13. What can we learn about gold nanowires? A. They are harder than rubber. B. They are as thin as human hair. C. They can be placed into the brain. D. They are in the final stage of development. 14. Why is gold a safe choice for use in the brain? A. It can be stretched by the brain. B. It can be made into various shapes. C. It is being used to create soft electrodes. D. It has no negative impact on the brain’s functions. 15. What is the main idea of the passage? A. The unique properties of gold nanowires. B. The history of gold use in the medical field. C. The current applications of gold in the brain. D. The potential use of gold in nervous system treatment. 【答案】12. B 13. C 14. D 15. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要讲的是瑞典Linkoping大学的科学家们正在探索如何使用黄金来修复大脑受损部分，以对抗神经系统疾病。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“The plan is to put gold electrodes (电极) into the affected part of the brain. They will act as “telephone operators” between nerve cells and electronic medical devices, enabling communication so that the nervous system can function normally.(该计划是将金电极放入大脑受影响的部分。它们将充当神经细胞和电子医疗设备之间的‘电话接线员’，使神经系统能够正常运作。)”可知，金电极在治疗神经系统疾病方面的作用是作为通信连接。故选B。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“This is why the Swedish scientists are using a new material called “gold nanowires” (金纳米线). As the name suggests, these are long, extremely thin gold threads — 1,000 times thinner than human hair. By putting them into rubber, the scientists have successfully created electrodes that are soft enough to connect comfortably with the human brain.(这就是为什么瑞典科学家使用一种名为“金纳米线”的新材料。顾名思义，这些都是又长又细的金线，比人的头发细1000倍。通过将它们放入橡胶中，科学家们成功地制造出了足够柔软的电极，可以舒适地与人类大脑连接。)”以及最后一段“Once placed in the brain, gold nanowires can last for at least three years, which is longer than many materials currently in use.(一旦植入大脑，金纳米线可以持续使用至少三年，这比目前使用的许多材料都要长。)”可知，金纳米线比人的头发细1000倍、可以被植入大脑。故选C。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“What’s more, gold doesn’t react with other chemicals in the human brain, making it a safe choice.(更重要的是，黄金不会与人脑中的其他化学物质发生反应，因此它是一个安全的选择。)”可知，大脑中使用黄金是安全的选择是因为它对大脑功能没有负面影响。故选D。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第一段“Just as damaged teeth can be replaced with gold crowns (齿冠), scientists are exploring how gold can be used to repair damaged parts of the brain.(就像损坏的牙齿可以用金冠代替一样，科学家们正在探索如何用黄金来修复大脑受损的部分。)”可知，本文主要讲的是瑞典Linkoping University的科学家们正在探索如何使用黄金来修复大脑受损部分，以对抗神经系统疾病，因此D选项“The potential use of gold in nervous system treatment.(黄金在神经系统治疗中的潜在应用。)”能够概括文章主旨。故选D。 第二节(共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Luck can really feel random, and it can be tough to know how to get good luck.

The application of drones and automatic irrigation systems in farming impressed me deeply, leading me to reflect on the advantages and disadvantages of smart agriculture. On the positive side, smart agriculture uses drones and automatic irrigation to boost efficiency. Drones monitor crops and spray pesticides precisely, significantly saving time and labor. Automatic irrigation conserves water effectively. However, high costs may make it hard for small farms to afford. Over-reliance on technology might also cause loss of traditional skills.
