The 15-year-old has come up with an idea for a soap that could help treat skin cancer, and he is already working with scientists to test his idea. Heman’s family came to the US from Ethiopia when he was four. Heman remembers seeing people there working outside in the sun without proper sun protection, which may well increase the risk of skin cancer. From his parents, he had a deeper understanding of its dangers. Skin cancer can often be cured, but the treatment is extremely expensive for those poor workers. Heman’s natural curiosity led him to experiment with different materials and at the age of 7, he nearly caused a fire with a chemistry set. As he got older, he began to wonder if his curiosity could actually help make a difference. Upon reading about imiquimod, a medicine that can help fight skin cancer in the early stages, he realized it was a good way to make the medicine work through a simple bar of soap. But Heman knew that simply mixing imiquimod with soap wouldn’t work, as it would just wash away. Instead, he thought of creating a soap that contained the medicine inside super tiny “nanoparticles” (纳米颗粒) to make sure it remains on the skin after the soap washed off, allowing imiquimod to take effect. Last year, when he was 14, Heman created a video explaining his idea, and won the 3M Young Scientist Challenge. He is now working with scientists at Johns Hopkins University, running tests to see if the soap helps mice with skin cancer. Heman knows that it will take a long time and a lot of effort to develop his soap, but he’s excited about the work. He also encourages other young people to contribute. “Just keep inventing and thinking of new ways to improve our world and make it a better place,” Heman says. 8. What drove Heman Bekele to create the soap? A. His curiosity about skin cancer. B. His desire to develop a new medicine. C His family’s history of skin cancer. D. His concern for unprotected workers outdoors. 9. Why does Heman use nanoparticles in his soap? A. To make imiquimod affordable B. To make imiquimod easier to use. C. To help imiquimod stick to the skin. D. To help imiquimod spread faster. 10. Which of the following best describes Heman according to the text? A. Curious and creative. B. Focused and frank. C. Understanding and modest. D. Efficient and generous. 11. What can be the suitable title of the passage? A. Fight against skin cancer. B. Be a gifted teenager. C. Follow a medical career. D. Meet a young scientist. D One thing in which I think I take too much pride, at times, is my academic performance. In the past, I managed to get grades on exams that were unbelievable, even to myself, for the amount of studying I had done. The exam may have just happened to ask the questions to which I knew the answers, even though there were many possible questions that would have stumped me. I’ve always done well in mathematics, but a few times, I had to step back and take a second look at how much pride I had in my ability. Upon receiving the score for my second exam in MATH170, I was rather disturbed. My score was 79%. I had planned to use my math courses to balance the grades I might get in my English and writing courses, so that score was acceptable. It got worse still. In Statistics and Calculus, I received failing grades on homework assignments. Every time I got these bad grades, I felt the same. I started to think that maybe I really couldn’t do these things. After giving an honest effort, however, I did better. The thing in which I haven’t enough pride is my worth as a person with whom people like to associate. I give up opportunities to socialize because I don’t think anyone will want to talk to me. Because of this trait of mine, I have very few friends. Perhaps spending the majority of my time alone isn’t bad; it is what I’m used to, but I bet that by living a life of partial seclusion, I miss out on interesting and amusing life experiences that could be beneficial. I have illustrated how the extremes of pride can be harmful. In my case, too much pride in academic ability can lead to failing grades, and not enough pride in oneself as a social individual can lead to a lonelier life. A moderate amount of pride leads to a clear view of the agendas of life, allowing one to make good decisions regarding these. 12. Why did the author get good grades in the past? A. Because of hard work. B. Because of much pride. C. Because of good luck. D. Because of high intelligence. 13. How did the author feel after exam failures? A. A little ashamed. B. Less confident. C. Less determined. D. A little grateful. 14. What is the author’s attitude to spending most of his/her time alone? A. Carefree. B. Tolerant. C. Regretful. D. Positive. 15. Which is the best title for the text? A. Avoiding being too proud. B. Changing the poor character. C. Correcting the bad behaviour. D. Balancing the pride degree. 第二节 (共5小题：每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 阅读短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 School days mean homework, studying, exams, and social interactions — not to mention getting up early every morning.

(暑期项目旨在为学生提供在大学学习的机会，结识来自世界各地的其他学生，并探索著名的牛津城。)”可知，参加这个项目可以探索该校所在城市牛津。又根据Cambridge Summer School中的“Explore the city that shaped some of the world’s famous minds, including Sir Isaac Newton and Sylvia Plath. (探索塑造了包括艾萨克·牛顿爵士和西尔维亚·普拉斯在内的一些世界著名思想家的城市。)”可知，参加剑桥暑期学校可以探索该校所在的剑桥市。故选D项。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。根据 Oxford Summer School中最后一行“Dates: 15 July-30 August (日期：7月15日至8月30日)”，Cambridge Summer School中最后一行“Dates: 20 July-28 August (日期：7月20日至8月28日)”，Earlscliffe Summer School中最后一行“Dates: 20 June-31 July (日期：6月20日至7月31日)”，Rochester College Summer School中最后一行“Dates: 25 June-28 July (日期：6月25日至7月28日)”可知，Earlscliffe Summer School项目于6月20日开始，是四个项目中开始时间最早的。故选B项。 【3题详解】 推理判断题。根据全文的标题“Summer Schools(夏季学校)”以及首段“As the UK’s top ranked summer schools, these schools will deliver an outstanding summer experience in a multi-national, fun, and secure setting.(作为英国排名最高的暑期学校，这些学校将在跨国、有趣和安全的环境中提供出色的暑期体验。)”可知，本文介绍英国四所著名学校的暑期项目和各项目能给学生带来什么收获等，因此可推断该文章应出现在教育宣传手册中。故选A项。 B High school was a hard time for Me in the beginning because I had just moved to a small town and knew basically no one.

He really inspired me and changed my life. I would not be the person that I am today if he had not taken such an interest in me when I was in high school.（我永远不会忘记科尔巴斯先生。他真的鼓舞了我，改变了我的生活。如果他在我上高中的时候对我没有那么大的兴趣，我就不会成为今天的我。）以及文章主要内容可知，作者主要是通过一些具体事例向我们介绍了曾经给予他许多帮助的一名中学篮球教练。故选C。 C Heman Bekele has been named TIME’s Kid of the Year for 2024. The 15-year-old has come up with an idea for a soap that could help treat skin cancer, and he is already working with scientists to test his idea. Heman’s family came to the US from Ethiopia when he was four. Heman remembers seeing people there working outside in the sun without proper sun protection, which may well increase the risk of skin cancer. From his parents, he had a deeper understanding of its dangers. Skin cancer can often be cured, but the treatment is extremely expensive for those poor workers. Heman’s natural curiosity led him to experiment with different materials and at the age of 7, he nearly caused a fire with a chemistry set. As he got older, he began to wonder if his curiosity could actually help make a difference. Upon reading about imiquimod, a medicine that can help fight skin cancer in the early stages, he realized it was a good way to make the medicine work through a simple bar of soap. But Heman knew that simply mixing imiquimod with soap wouldn’t work, as it would just wash away. Instead, he thought of creating a soap that contained the medicine inside super tiny “nanoparticles” (纳米颗粒) to make sure it remains on the skin after the soap washed off, allowing imiquimod to take effect. Last year, when he was 14, Heman created a video explaining his idea, and won the 3M Young Scientist Challenge. He is now working with scientists at Johns Hopkins University, running tests to see if the soap helps mice with skin cancer. Heman knows that it will take a long time and a lot of effort to develop his soap, but he’s excited about the work. He also encourages other young people to contribute. “Just keep inventing and thinking of new ways to improve our world and make it a better place,” Heman says. 8. What drove Heman Bekele to create the soap? A. His curiosity about skin cancer. B. His desire to develop a new medicine. C. His family’s history of skin cancer. D. His concern for unprotected workers outdoors. 9. Why does Heman use nanoparticles in his soap? A. To make imiquimod affordable B. To make imiquimod easier to use. C. To help imiquimod stick to the skin. D. To help imiquimod spread faster. 10. Which of the following best describes Heman according to the text? A. Curious and creative. B. Focused and frank. C. Understanding and modest. D. Efficient and generous. 11. What can be the suitable title of the passage? A. Fight against skin cancer. B. Be a gifted teenager. C. Follow a medical career. D. Meet a young scientist. 【答案】8. D 9. C 10. A 11. D 【解析】 【导语】本文为一篇记叙文。文章主要介绍了海曼·贝克莱发明了一种可能有助于对抗皮肤癌的肥皂。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。第二段中提到“Heman remembers seeing people there working outside in the sun without proper sun protection, which may well increase the risk of skin cancer. From his parents, he had a deeper understanding of its dangers. Skin cancer can often be cured, but the treatment is extremely expensive for those poor workers.( 海曼记得在那里看到人们在户外工作而没有适当的防晒措施，这可能增加患皮肤癌的风险。从父母那里，他对皮肤癌的危险有了更深的理解。皮肤癌通常可以治愈，但对那些贫穷的工人来说，治疗费用极其昂贵。)”可知，海曼因为看到户外工作的工人没有适当的防晒措施，且治疗皮肤癌的费用昂贵，所以产生了创造这种肥皂的想法，以帮助他们预防或治疗皮肤癌。故选D。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。第四段中提到“ Instead, he thought of creating a soap that contained the medicine inside super tiny “nanoparticles” (纳米颗粒) to make sure it remains on the skin after the soap washed off, allowing imiquimod to take effect.(相反，海曼想到创造一种含有药物的纳米颗粒肥皂，以确保在肥皂洗去后药物仍留在皮肤上，从而使imiquimod 发挥作用。)”可知，海曼使用纳米颗粒是为了让imiquimod 能够附着在皮肤上，从而发挥作用。故选C。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。第三段中提到“Heman’s natural curiosity led him to experiment with different materials and at the age of 7, he nearly caused a fire with a chemistry set.(海曼的天然好奇心驱使他尝试不同的材料，并在7岁时，他差点因化学实验引发火灾。)”以及第四段中提到“ Instead, he thought of creating a soap that contained the medicine inside super tiny “nanoparticles” (纳米颗粒) to make sure it remains on the skin after the soap washed off, allowing imiquimod to take effect.(相反，海曼想到创造一种含有药物的纳米颗粒肥皂，以确保在肥皂洗去后药物仍留在皮肤上，从而使imiquimod 发挥作用。)”可知，他想到用纳米颗粒将药物包裹在肥皂中，这些都表明海曼是一个好奇且有创造力的人。故选A。 11题详解】 主旨大意题。全文主要讲述了海曼·贝克莱这位年轻科学家的故事，包括他的家庭背景、发明创造以及他对未来的展望等。文章最后一段也提到“He also encourages other young people to contribute. ‘Just keep inventing and thinking of new ways to improve our world and make it a better place,’ Heman says.(他还鼓励其他年轻人做出贡献。“继续发明，思考改善我们世界的新方法，让它变得更好，”海曼说。)”可知，文章进一步强调了海曼作为年轻科学家的身份和影响力。D选项“Meet a young scientist.( 认识一位年轻的科学家。)”符合文章标题。故选D。 D One thing in which I think I take too much pride, at times, is my academic performance. In the past, I managed to get grades on exams that were unbelievable, even to myself, for the amount of studying I had done. The exam may have just happened to ask the questions to which I knew the answers, even though there were many possible questions that would have stumped me. I’ve always done well in mathematics, but a few times, I had to step back and take a second look at how much pride I had in my ability. Upon receiving the score for my second exam in MATH170, I was rather disturbed. My score was 79%. I had planned to use my math courses to balance the grades I might get in my English and writing courses, so that score was acceptable. It got worse still. In Statistics and Calculus, I received failing grades on homework assignments. Every time I got these bad grades, I felt the same. I started to think that maybe I really couldn’t do these things. After giving an honest effort, however, I did better. The thing in which I haven’t enough pride is my worth as a person with whom people like to associate. I give up opportunities to socialize because I don’t think anyone will want to talk to me. Because of this trait of mine, I have very few friends. Perhaps spending the majority of my time alone isn’t bad; it is what I’m used to, but I bet that by living a life of partial seclusion, I miss out on interesting and amusing life experiences that could be beneficial. I have illustrated how the extremes of pride can be harmful. In my case, too much pride in academic ability can lead to failing grades, and not enough pride in oneself as a social individual can lead to a lonelier life. A moderate amount of pride leads to a clear view of the agendas of life, allowing one to make good decisions regarding these. 12. Why did the author get good grades in the past? A. Because of hard work. B. Because of much pride. C. Because of good luck. D. Because of high intelligence. 13. How did the author feel after exam failures? A. A little ashamed. B. Less confident. C. Less determined. D. A little grateful. 14. What is the author’s attitude to spending most of his/her time alone? A. Carefree. B. Tolerant. C. Regretful. D. Positive. 15. Which is the best title for the text? A. Avoiding being too proud. B. Changing the poor character. C. Correcting the bad behaviour. D. Balancing the pride degree. 【答案】12. C 13. B 14. C 15. D 【解析】 【分析】本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。作者在文中讲述了自己的经历，过于骄傲导致学术成绩不及格，对社交个体不够自豪导致了更孤独的生活，提出拥有适度的骄傲。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中The exam may have just happened to ask the questions to which I knew the answers, even though there were many possible questions that would have stumped me.考试可能只是碰巧地问了一些我知道答案的问题，即使有很多可能会难倒我的问题。可知，因为运气好作者在过去取得了好成绩。故选C项。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中Upon receiving the score for my second exam in MATH170, I was rather disturbed.当我收到MATH170第二次考试的成绩时，我很不安。Every time I got these bad grades, I felt the same. I started to think that maybe I really couldn’t do these things. 每次我得到这些糟糕的成绩，我都有同样的感觉。我开始想，也许我真的做不了这些事。可知，考试失败后作者缺乏自信。故选B项。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段中 Perhaps spending the majority of my time alone isn’t bad; it is what I’m used to, but I bet that by living a life of partial seclusion, I miss out on interesting and amusing life experiences that could be beneficial.也许大部分时间独处并不糟糕；这是我所习惯的，但我敢打赌，由于过着部分隐居的生活，我错过了可能有益的有趣的生活经历。可知，作者对大部分时间独处持遗憾的态度。故选C项。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。根据最后一段中I have illustrated how the extremes of pride can be harmful. 我已经说明了极端的骄傲是如何有害的。A moderate amount of pride leads to a clear view of the agendas of life, allowing one to make good decisions regarding these.适度的骄傲会让你对生活的日程有一个清晰的认识，允许你对这些事情做出正确的决定。可知，作者在文中讲述了自己的经历，过于骄傲会导致学术成绩不及格，对社交个体不够自豪导致了更孤独的生活，提出拥有适度的骄傲，因此本文的最佳标题是选项D“平衡骄傲的程度”。故选D项。 第二节 (共5小题：每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 阅读短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 School days mean homework, studying, exams, and social interactions — not to mention getting up early every morning.
