He used it to make “potions (药水)”. At that time, only his parents knew his work. Now, at the age of 15, there are a lot more people watching his work. In October 2023, 3M and Discovery Education named Heman as the winner of their Young Scientist Challenge with a prize of $25,000 because he invented a soap that could one day be used to treat some kinds of skin cancer (皮肤癌). Heman was born in Addis Ababa, the capital city of Ethiopia, in Africa. He moved to the US with his family at 4. He remembers seeing people in Africa working in the hot sun without any protection for their skin. And that can be the main cause of skin cancer. Skin cancer treatments usually cost about $40,000. Heman wondered if there was a cheaper way. He thought of adding a skin cancer medicine to soap. “What is something that everyone is able to buy?” Heman thought to himself. “Everyone uses soap and water for cleaning. Therefore, soap would probably be the best choice.” It could take years before the soap is ready to be sold. But Heman, the 10th grader at Woodson High School, is determined. Over the summer, he spent every weekday in a lab. When he goes back to school this fall, he’ll be in the lab less often. But he’ll keep working hard to make his dream come true. Heman encourages all kids to dream big. “Just keep inventing things,” he says. “Keep thinking of new ways to improve our world.” 4. When did Heman get the chemistry set? A. In 2023. B. About 6 years ago. C. When he was in the 10th Grade. D. At the age of 6. 5. According to the text, what’s the main reason for skin cancer in Africa? A. The sunlight in Africa is too strong. B. Africans are more likely to get ill. C. Africans don’t protect their skin in the hot sun. D. Africans use soap for cleaning. 6. Why does Heman choose soap to treat skin cancer? A. Because it’s cheap and easy to use. B. Because his parents like using soap. C. Because there are many soap companies in Africa. D. Because he can only find soap in the lab. 7. What’s the main purpose of the text? A. To explain why many Africans get skin cancer. B. To show how Heman’s parents support him to make the soap. C. To explain why Heman’s soap is better than other products. D. To introduce Heman and his invention. 【答案】4. D 5. C 6. A 7. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，主要介绍了15岁的Heman Bekele因发明可治疗皮肤癌的肥皂而获得“青年科学家挑战赛”奖项的故事，并讲述了他的发明初衷和未来计划。 【4题详解】 推理判断题。根据“Nine years ago, Heman Bekele received a gift—a chemistry set.”及后文“Now, at the age of 15...”可知，赫曼现在15岁，9年前收到的化学实验套装，所以他收到化学实验套装时是6岁。故选D。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据“He remembers seeing people in Africa working in the hot sun without any protection for their skin.

I have been doing some research. Wind turbines (涡轮机) seem to be a pretty good way to produce energy. They do not pollute the air, they are less expensive to build than power stations, and they do not use up fossil fuels, which are non-renewable resources (不可再生资源). I found out that some people do not like wind turbines. I am going to tell you some of the problems they point out, and my thoughts on each problem. Problem 1: Birds are killed when they fly into wind turbines. Okay, that makes sense, but my research tells me that more birds are killed each year by flying into tall buildings that keep their lights on at night. A huge number of birds are killed each year by pet cats that people let wander outside. In fact, the number of birds killed by wind turbines is much lower. If we want to save birds, let us pay more attention to the bigger problems. Problem 2: Wind turbines produce energy only on windy days. Yes, that is true. But no one is talking about using only wind turbines to produce energy. We do need to have other sources of energy to use on days when there is no wind. Wind turbines can help us reduce the amount of pollution that other energy sources put into the air. Also, wind turbines can help us use less energy from non-renewable sources. Problem 3: Wind turbines make too much noise. Noise can be a problem when we build wind turbines in areas where people live and work. We do not have to build wind turbines in those places. There is a lot of open land in North America where wind turbines would not bother anyone. I also found out that people are working to design wind turbines that are much quieter. 8. What problems do some people point out about wind turbines? ① They are expensive to build. ② They kill birds. ③ They can’t be used when there’s no wind. ④ They are not quiet enough. A. ①②③. B. ①③④. C. ①②④. D. ②③④. 9. According to the text, where can we build wind turbines? A. Next to schools. B. Near the factories. C. Close to people’s houses. D. In the open areas. 10. How does the writer show his/ her opinion in Paragraph 2? A. By listing numbers. B. By making comparisons. C. By giving examples. D. By using pictures. 11. Which of the following might the writer agree with? A. More birds are killed by wind turbines than by tall buildings. B. Wind turbines produce less energy than fossil fuels. C. Wind turbines will make less noise one day. D. We shouldn’t question the use of wind turbines. 【答案】8. D 9. D 10. B 11. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章主要讨论了风力涡轮机的优势以及针对其常见批评观点的反驳，包括对鸟类的影响、依赖风力发电以及噪音问题，并提出了相应的解决思路。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据“Problem 1: Birds are killed when they fly into wind turbines.”、“Problem 2: Wind turbines produce energy only on windy days.”和“Problem 3: Wind turbines make too much noise.”可知，有些人指出了关于风力涡轮机的问题，包括：它们杀死鸟类；没有风的时候不能用；不够安静。正确的为②③④。故选D。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据“We do not have to build wind turbines in those places. There is a lot of open land in North America where wind turbines would not bother anyone.”可知，作者建议将风力涡轮机建在开阔地带以避免干扰居民，即我们可以在开阔地带建造风力涡轮机。故选D。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据“but my research tells me that more birds are killed each year by flying into tall buildings that keep their lights on at night. A huge number of birds are killed each year by pet cats that people let wander outside. In fact, the number of birds killed by wind turbines is much lower.”可知，作者通过比较鸟类死于高楼、宠物猫和风力涡轮机的数量，说明风力涡轮机对鸟类的影响相对较小。因此作者通过比较来呈现观点。故选B。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据“I also found out that people are working to design wind turbines that are much quieter.”可知，作者认为人们正在设计更安静的风力涡轮机，即作者同意总有一天，风力涡轮机会发出更少的噪音。故选C。 D ①This summer, Beijing has attracted visitors from abroad with the help of the country’s 144-hour visa-free transit policy (免签政策). ②Visitors from Spain, France, and the Netherlands all expressed their surprise at the clear difference between the China they have read about in Western media and the reality they have seen in China. ③Yvonne, one of the visitors from the Netherlands, shared her wonderful experience with us, noting that she had never seen a drum performance like that before. “Everything in Beijing is big,” she said, recalling the huge crowds at the Palace Museum and the beautiful dragon designs. She humorously compared Beijing’s population of over 21 million to the Netherlands’ population of 17 million. She continued that it would be better to have three weeks in Beijing, and she hopes to stay in China for about two or three months, as “there is too much to see.” ④Guillermo Torah, a Spanish tourist, said that the visa-free policy allowed him and his family to travel to China without hassle. “We were able to come without any trouble. It’s really convenient,” he told the Global Times on Tuesday. ⑤Florence Borrelly, a French tourist, came to China with her family. Borrelly said they came to China because her son is studying Chinese at school. The visa-free transit makes her visit to many cities in China like Xi’an, Nanjing and Hangzhou possible. And she was especially attracted by Hangzhou and the West Lake, describing it as the most “romantic” and “beautiful” place she’d ever seen. She was also moved by the friendliness and openness of the Chinese people, despite the language gap. “People here are always willing to offer help. Now I have a deeper understanding of this beautiful country.” 12. Which city does Florence like most? A. Hangzhou. B. Xi’an. C. Beijing. D. Nanjing. 13. What does Yvonne mainly want to tell us in Paragraph 3? A. She was surprised at the amazing drum performance in Beijing. B. China is a huge country worth visiting for a long time. C. She was attracted by the dragon designs in the Palace Museum. D The population of Beijing is much bigger than that of the Netherlands. 14. What does the underlined word “hassle” in Paragraph 4 mean? A. help B. reasons C. rules D. difficulty 15. What’s the structure of the text? A. ①②③④/⑤ B. ①②/③④⑤ C. ①②③/④⑤ D. ①/②/③④/⑤ 【答案】12. A 13. B 14. D 15. B 【解析】 【导语】本文主要介绍了今年夏天，在国家144小时免签政策的帮助下，北京吸引了来自国外的游客，来自不同国家的游客分享了他们在中国的所见所感。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据“And she was especially attracted by Hangzhou and the West Lake, describing it as the most ‘romantic’ and ‘beautiful’ place she’d ever seen.”可知，Florence最喜欢杭州。故选A。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据“She continued that it would be better to have three weeks in Beijing, and she hopes to stay in China for about two or three months, as ‘there is too much to see.’”可知，Yvonne主要想告诉我们中国是一个值得长时间游览的巨大国家。故选B。 【14题详解】 词句猜测题。根据“We were able to come without any trouble. It’s really convenient”可知，他们来中国没有任何麻烦，很方便，故hassle意“困难，麻烦”，与difficulty意思相近。故选D。 【15题详解】 篇章结构题。第一段和第二段引出在国家144小时免签政策的帮助下，北京吸引了来自国外的游客；第三、四、五段分别介绍来自荷兰、西班牙和法国的游客在中国的经历和感受。故文章结构为①②/③④⑤。故选B。 第二节 任务型阅读（共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分） 阅读下面材料内容，从方框中所给的A-E五个选项中选择正确选项（其中一项是多余选项），将其序号填入31-34题，并回答第35小题。注意：请将第35小题的答案写在非选择题部分的相应位置。 Why are Modern Young People So Afraid to Answer the Phone? ____16____ The survey of 2,000 people also found that nearly 70% of the people between 18 and 34 prefer sending messages to talking on the phone. ____17____ However, people between 18 and 34 use the phone only to speak to their families from time to time and just for emergencies (紧急情况).

Now, at the age of 15, there are a lot more people watching his work. In October 2023, 3M and Discovery Education named Heman as the winner of their Young Scientist Challenge with a prize of $25,000 because he invented a soap that could one day be used to treat some kinds of skin cancer (皮肤癌). Heman was born in Addis Ababa, the capital city of Ethiopia, in Africa. He moved to the US with his family at 4. He remembers seeing people in Africa working in the hot sun without any protection for their skin. And that can be the main cause of skin cancer. Skin cancer treatments usually cost about $40,000. Heman wondered if there was a cheaper way. He thought of adding a skin cancer medicine to soap. “What is something that everyone is able to buy?” Heman thought to himself. “Everyone uses soap and water for cleaning. Therefore, soap would probably be the best choice.” It could take years before the soap is ready to be sold. But Heman, the 10th grader at Woodson High School, is determined. Over the summer, he spent every weekday in a lab. When he goes back to school this fall, he’ll be in the lab less often. But he’ll keep working hard to make his dream come true. Heman encourages all kids to dream big. “Just keep inventing things,” he says. “Keep thinking of new ways to improve our world.” 4. When did Heman get the chemistry set? A. In 2023. B. About 6 years ago. C. When he was in the 10th Grade. D. At the age of 6. 5. According to the text, what’s the main reason for skin cancer in Africa? A. The sunlight in Africa is too strong. B. Africans are more likely to get ill. C. Africans don’t protect their skin in the hot sun. D. Africans use soap for cleaning. 6. Why does Heman choose soap to treat skin cancer? A. Because it’s cheap and easy to use. B. Because his parents like using soap. C. Because there are many soap companies in Africa. D. Because he can only find soap in the lab. 7. What’s the main purpose of the text? A. To explain why many Africans get skin cancer. B. To show how Heman’s parents support him to make the soap. C. To explain why Heman’s soap is better than other products. D. To introduce Heman and his invention. C So what is the story on wind energy? I have been doing some research. Wind turbines (涡轮机) seem to be a pretty good way to produce energy. They do not pollute the air, they are less expensive to build than power stations, and they do not use up fossil fuels, which are non-renewable resources (不可再生资源). I found out that some people do not like wind turbines. I am going to tell you some of the problems they point out, and my thoughts on each problem. Problem 1: Birds are killed when they fly into wind turbines. Okay, that makes sense, but my research tells me that more birds are killed each year by flying into tall buildings that keep their lights on at night. A huge number of birds are killed each year by pet cats that people let wander outside. In fact, the number of birds killed by wind turbines is much lower. If we want to save birds, let us pay more attention to the bigger problems. Problem 2: Wind turbines produce energy only on windy days. Yes, that is true. But no one is talking about using only wind turbines to produce energy. We do need to have other sources of energy to use on days when there is no wind. Wind turbines can help us reduce the amount of pollution that other energy sources put into the air. Also, wind turbines can help us use less energy from non-renewable sources. Problem 3: Wind turbines make too much noise. Noise can be a problem when we build wind turbines in areas where people live and work. We do not have to build wind turbines in those places. There is a lot of open land in North America where wind turbines would not bother anyone. I also found out that people are working to design wind turbines that are much quieter. 8. What problems do some people point out about wind turbines? ① They are expensive to build. ② They kill birds. ③ They can’t be used when there’s no wind. ④ They are not quiet enough. A. ①②③. B. ①③④. C. ①②④. D. ②③④. 9. According to the text, where can we build wind turbines? A. Next to schools. B. Near the factories. C. Close to people’s houses. D. In the open areas. 10. How does the writer show his/ her opinion in Paragraph 2? A. By listing numbers. B. By making comparisons. C. By giving examples. D. By using pictures. 11. Which of the following might the writer agree with? A. More birds are killed by wind turbines than by tall buildings. B. Wind turbines produce less energy than fossil fuels. C. Wind turbines will make less noise one day. D. We shouldn’t question the use of wind turbines. D ①This summer, Beijing has attracted visitors from abroad with the help of the country’s 144-hour visa-free transit policy (免签政策). ②Visitors from Spain, France, and the Netherlands all expressed their surprise at the clear difference between the China they have read about in Western media and the reality they have seen in China. ③Yvonne, one of the visitors from the Netherlands, shared her wonderful experience with us, noting that she had never seen a drum performance like that before. “Everything in Beijing is big,” she said, recalling the huge crowds at the Palace Museum and the beautiful dragon designs. She humorously compared Beijing’s population of over 21 million to the Netherlands’ population of 17 million. She continued that it would be better to have three weeks in Beijing, and she hopes to stay in China for about two or three months, as “there is too much to see.” ④Guillermo Torah, a Spanish tourist, said that the visa-free policy allowed him and his family to travel to China without hassle. “We were able to come without any trouble. It’s really convenient,” he told the Global Times on Tuesday. ⑤Florence Borrelly, a French tourist, came to China with her family. Borrelly said they came to China because her son is studying Chinese at school. The visa-free transit makes her visit to many cities in China like Xi’an, Nanjing and Hangzhou possible. And she was especially attracted by Hangzhou and the West Lake, describing it as the most “romantic” and “beautiful” place she’d ever seen. She was also moved by the friendliness and openness of the Chinese people, despite the language gap. “People here are always willing to offer help. Now I have a deeper understanding of this beautiful country.” 12. Which city does Florence like most? A. Hangzhou. B. Xi’an. C. Beijing. D. Nanjing. 13. What does Yvonne mainly want to tell us in Paragraph 3? A. She was surprised at the amazing drum performance in Beijing. B. China is a huge country worth visiting for a long time. C She was attracted by the dragon designs in the Palace Museum. D. The population of Beijing is much bigger than that of the Netherlands. 14. What does the underlined word “hassle” in Paragraph 4 mean? A. help B. reasons C. rules D. difficulty 15. What’s the structure of the text? A. ①②③④/⑤ B. ①②/③④⑤ C. ①②③/④⑤ D. ①/②/③④/⑤ 第二节 任务型阅读（共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分） 阅读下面材料内容，从方框中所给的A-E五个选项中选择正确选项（其中一项是多余选项），将其序号填入31-34题，并回答第35小题。注意：请将第35小题的答案写在非选择题部分的相应位置。 Why are Modern Young People So Afraid to Answer the Phone? ____16____ The survey of 2,000 people also found that nearly 70% of the people between 18 and 34 prefer sending messages to talking on the phone. ____17____ However, people between 18 and 34 use the phone only to speak to their families from time to time and just for emergencies (紧急情况). More than half of the young people in the survey mentioned that an unexpected call means bad news for them. ____18____ But not talking on the phone doesn’t mean these young people’s phones always remain silent—They always share the latest hot news, show photos of great moments and leave voice messages in chat groups. ____19____ We can leave the scary phone calls behind in 2024, just as we gave up the fax machine in the 1990s. A. For the older generations, talking on the phone is normal. B. The young people didn’t learn to care about others. C. So they will get scared when their phones ring. D.
