Greatly fascinated, I decided to pursue a systematic study. I applied to Yunnan University of Chinese Medicine, and I was overjoyed the day I received my admission letter. At the beginning, the ancient Chinese classics and complex processes of herb collection, identification and combination were quite challenging to me. Fortunately, I had the patient guidance of professors and the enthusiastic help of classmates to rely on. I remember when I first started learning acupuncture (针灸), I was often too hesitant to actually use the needles. To encourage me, my senior classmates generously acted as patients, braving the discomfort to let me practice acupuncture techniques on their bodies. With their support and motivation, my acupuncture skills steadily improved, and my studies quickly got on track. During my learning journey, the most memorable experience was my internship (实习) at the Yunnan Provincial Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine. There, I had the opportunity to participate directly in patient care. I looked forward to every Saturday afternoon when I could shadow my teacher. After each patient consultation, she would give me a detailed explanation: what the patient’s pulse (脉搏) indicated, what it represented in terms of their conditions, and the role of each herb in the prescription (处方). This approach helped shape my diagnostic thinking and was incredibly beneficial to me. Even though this meant she could never leave work on time, she never complained. As an ancient Chinese saying goes, “It’s easier to get a teacher of classics than a teacher of character.” My every day in China has been filled with challenges and surprises. TCM has taught me not just the skills to heal and save lives but how to view life. I have come to understand that the power of culture lies more in its ability to connect hearts than in its uniqueness. People from different cultural backgrounds can actually form strong connections. 4. Which of the following did the author find difficult when starting studying TCM? A. How to collect ancient Chinese classics. B. How to combine different herbs properly. C. How to communicate effectively with professors. D. How to understand the ancient Chinese philosophy. 5. Why does the author mention the experience of learning acupuncture? A. To show the complexity of acupuncture. B. To introduce the procedures of studying TCM. C. To illustrate the supportive learning environment. D. To stress the dangers of improper acupuncture techniques. 6. What does the author mean by the saying in paragraph 4? A. His TCM teacher is highly professional. B. His TCM teacher is selfless and devoted. C. His TCM teacher is strict and demanding. D. His TCM teacher is easy to get along with. 7. What does the author learn from the experience of studying TCM? A. Life is precious. B. Hard work pays off. C. Uniqueness unites, not divides. D. Culture is a bridge, not a wall. 【答案】4. B 5. C 6. B 7. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要描述了作者在学习传统中医(TCM)的过程中的感悟和经验。作者通过叙述自己在学习传统中医过程中的困难、成长和启发，表达了对中医文化的深厚兴趣以及所学到的生活智慧。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“I remember when I first started learning acupuncture (针灸), I was often too hesitant to actually use the needles. To encourage me, my senior classmates generously acted as patients, braving the discomfort to let me practice acupuncture techniques on their bodies. With their support and motivation, my acupuncture skills steadily improved, and my studies quickly got on track. (一开始，中国古代的经典和复杂的草药采集、鉴定和搭配过程对我来说是相当具有挑战性的)”可知，作者在刚开始学习中医时，觉得草药的采集、鉴定和搭配的复杂过程很有挑战性。故选B。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“Fortunately, I had the patient guidance of professors and the enthusiastic help of classmates to rely on. (我记得当我刚开始学习针灸的时候，我常常太犹豫了，不敢实际使用针灸。为了鼓励我，我的高年级同学慷慨地充当病人，冒着不适让我在他们身上练习针灸技术。在他们的支持和激励下，我的针灸技术稳步提高，我的学业也很快步入正轨)”可知，作者提到刚开始学习针灸时遇到的困难。为了鼓励他，学长们自愿成为“病人”，忍受不适让他练习针灸。这段经历的目的是展示学长们的支持，以及学习过程中友好和互助的环境。故选C。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“After each patient consultation, she would give me a detailed explanation: what the patient’s pulse (脉搏) indicated, what it represented in terms of their conditions, and the role of each herb in the prescription (处方). This approach helped shape my diagnostic thinking and was incredibly beneficial to me. Even though this meant she could never leave work on time, she never complained. (每次问诊结束后，她都会向我详细解释：病人的脉象说明了什么，从病情角度如何解读，以及处方中每一味中药的作用。这种带教方式塑造了我的诊断思维，让我获益匪浅。尽管这意味着她从未准时下过班，但她从不抱怨)”可知，老师详细解释病例以及从未抱怨加班等可推断，作者想表达的是这位中医老师非常无私和奉献，愿意花时间耐心指导学生。故选B。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“TCM has taught me not just the skills to heal and save lives but how to view life. I have come to understand that the power of culture lies more in its ability to connect hearts than in its uniqueness. People from different cultural backgrounds can actually form strong connections. (中医不仅教会了我治疗和拯救生命的技巧，还教会了我如何看待生命。我开始明白，文化的力量更多地在于它连接心灵的能力，而不是它的独特性。来自不同文化背景的人实际上可以形成牢固的联系)”可知，中医教会了作者如何看待生命，并意识到文化的力量不仅仅体现在它的独特性上，更体现在它能够连接人心。这句话表明，文化是一座桥梁，而不是隔阂。故选D。 C Most people hate mosquitoes — but scientists are about to build a “mosquito factory” to release modified mosquitoes. The modified mosquitoes carry a bacterium called Wolbachia pipientis (沃尔巴克氏菌), which can be naturally found in most insect species. However, it’s rarely discovered in mosquitoes. “We actually grow these mosquitoes that contain the bacterium,” Scott O’Neill, an Australian scientist who is involved in the project, told CBC News. When the modified mosquitoes are released, they slowly spread the bacterium to the population. Several studies have demonstrated the insects’ success. For example, a controlled experiment in Indonesia showed that the modified insect helped reduce the cases of the disease dengue (登革热) by 77 percent, according to a study paper published in 2021. The World Mosquito Program has announced that it will release modified mosquitoes in many of Brazil’s urban areas over the next 10 years. The aim is to protect up to 70 million people from diseases such as dengue, a disease mainly spread by mosquitoes. Dengue patients may have mild symptoms (症状) like fever, but severe cases can lead to death. Brazil has one of the highest rates of dengue infection in the world, according to the Nature website. “More than 1,000 people died of dengue in 2022 because of the spread of mosquitoes. It’s going everywhere,” Luciano Moreira, a scientist at the Oswaldo Cruz Foundation in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, told CBC News. Another way to prevent mosquitoes from spreading diseases is by producing genetically modified (GM，转基因的) mosquitoes. In 2022, the US Environmental Protection Agency cleared the release of 2.4 billion GM mosquitoes in California and Florida. According to the agency, GM mosquitoes carry two types of genes: a self-limiting gene that prevents female offspring (后代) from surviving to adulthood; and a marker gene that allows researchers to identify GM ones in the wild. After being released, GM mosquitoes lay eggs, so the genes are passed on to offspring. In this way, the number of female mosquitoes is reduced, therefore reducing the chance of spreading disease. 8. Why are the modified mosquitoes grown according to Scott O’Neill? A. To prevent mosquitoes from biting people. B. To make money for the scientists involved. C. To reduce the number of insects in the world. D. To spread a bacterium called Wolbachia pipientis. 9. What can we learn about the release of modified mosquitoes in Brazil? A. The decision to do so is only based on scientific research. B. The program will immediately reduce dengue cases by 77%. C. The high infection rate of dengue in Brazil is a key factor to it. D. The program aims to remove dengue completely within the next decade. 10. What does the underlined word “cleared” in paragraph 6 mean? A. Permitted. B. Removed. C. Disturbed. D. Restricted. 11. What might be the best title for the text? A. The Benefits of Mosquitoes B. Modified Mosquitoes to Fight Diseases C. The World Mosquito Program’s Success D. Genetic Engineering in Medical Research 【答案】8. D 9. C 10. A 11. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。文章报道了一项关于通过改良蚊子基因来防止蚊子传播疾病的研究。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“However, it’s rarely discovered in mosquitoes. “We actually grow these mosquitoes that contain the bacterium,” Scott O’Neill, an Australian scientist who is involved in the project, told CBC News. When the modified mosquitoes are released, they slowly spread the bacterium to the population.(然而，很少在蚊子身上发现。参与该项目的澳大利亚科学家斯科特·奥尼尔告诉加拿大广播公司新闻：“我们实际上培育了这些含有细菌的蚊子。”当转基因蚊子被释放时，它们会慢慢地将细菌传播给人群)”可知，培育转基因蚊子是为了传播一种叫做沃尔巴克氏体的细菌。故选D。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“The World Mosquito Program has announced that it will release modified mosquitoes in many of Brazil’s urban areas over the next 10 years. The aim is to protect up to 70 million people from diseases such as dengue, a disease mainly spread by mosquitoes. Dengue patients may have mild symptoms (症状) like fever, but severe cases can lead to death.(世界蚊子项目宣布，未来10年将在巴西许多城市地区释放转基因蚊子。其目的是保护多达7000万人免受登革热等疾病的侵害，登革热是一种主要由蚊子传播的疾病。登革热患者可能有轻微的症状，如发烧，但严重的病例可能导致死亡)”可知，登革热在巴西的高感染率是一个释放转基因蚊子的关键因素。故选C。 【10题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线词上文“the US Environmental Protection Agency(美国环境保护署)”以及后文“the release of 2.4 billion GM mosquitoes in California and Florida(在加州和佛罗里达州释放24亿只转基因蚊子)”可知，政府允许在加州和佛罗里达州释放24亿只转基因蚊子。故划线词意思是“允许”。故选A。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第三段“Several studies have demonstrated the insects’ success. For example, a controlled experiment in Indonesia showed that the modified insect helped reduce the cases of the disease dengue (登革热) by 77 percent, according to a study paper published in 2021.(几项研究已经证明了这种昆虫的成功。例如，根据2021年发表的一篇研究论文，印度尼西亚的一项对照实验表明，这种转基因昆虫有助于将登革热病例减少77%)”结合文章报道了一项关于通过改良蚊子基因来防止蚊子传播疾病的研究，所以“改良蚊子以对抗疾病”是文章最佳标题。故选B。 D For all programmers and processor industry participants, the RISC-V website is almost a must-visit as an open standard. Instruction Set Architecture, which is defined as the design of a computer from the programmer’s perspective, enabling a new era of processor innovation through open cooperation. Unlike X86 and ARM, which are owned by certain enterprises, RISC-V is an open one, allowing anybody to download its instructions handbook and use it. Maybe that is why some US lawmakers are targeting RISC-V. Republican Senator Marco Rubio and Democratic Senator Mark Warner have reportedly been urging US President Joe Biden to take action regarding RISC-V, because, they fear that Chinese companies might make use of the open-source platform to improve their chips (芯片) technology. Maybe the legislators (立法者) do not realize that by targeting RISC-V they are targeting not only a company or a platform but the idea of openness itself. Being a US company. RISC-V has a global membership, with a number of Chinese and US enterprises as members. It has for long been known as an open-minded institution promoting technological cooperation despite the political tensions, and the US lawmakers targeting it seem to be closing one of the last channels of technology communication between China and their nation. By doing so they are harming the United States’ own interests and its technological leadership in the world. Open source is a good computing tool that benefits those who share programs as well as those who learn from it. The Android smartphone system, for example, has developed largely because Google decided to make it an open-source system, which attracted worldwide smartphone businesses to adopt its standard. The US lawmakers might next target GitHub, or, some day, even forbid programmers from accessing the Internet. That will only lead to the US losing its technological edge, never to get it back again. 12. What is RISC-V according to the passage? A. A website for programmers. B. A computer design standard. C. An open-source platform. D. A US chips company. 13. The first paragraph serves as a (n) ________. A. argument B. background C. proof D. connection 14. What does the author mainly emphasize about US targeting RISC-V? A. Fairness. B. Interests. C. Cooperation. D. Openness. 15. Which can be inferred from the passage? A. RISC-V enables processor innovation through open cooperation. B. US lawmakers are targeting RISC-V for the technology safety concern. C. The example of Android demonstrates the benefits of technological openness. D. GitHub and the Internet are the next target US will focus on to safeguard its leadership. 【答案】12. C 13. B 14. D 15. C 【解析】 【导语】本文为一篇议论文，讨论美国意图关闭RISC-V这一开放平台来遏制中国芯片发展的行为影响了科研的开放性。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第一段“For all programmers and processor industry participants, the RISC-V website is almost a must-visit as an open standard. (对于所有程序员和处理器行业的参与者来说，RISC-V网站几乎是一个必须访问的开放标准。)”；第二段“Republican Senator Marco Rubio and Democratic Senator Mark Warner have reportedly been urging US President Joe Biden to take action regarding RISC-V, because, they fear that Chinese companies might make use of the open-source platform to improve their chips (芯片) technology. (据报道，共和党参议员马可·卢比奥和民主党参议员马克·华纳一直在敦促美国总统乔·拜登对RISC-V采取行动，因为他们担心中国公司可能会利用开源平台来改进他们的芯片技术。)”及第三段“Maybe the legislators do not realize that by targeting RISC-V they are targeting not only a company or a platform but the idea of openness itself. (也许立法者没有意识到，通过针对RISC-V，他们针对的不仅仅是一家公司或一个平台，而是开放的理念本身。)”可知，RISC-V不仅是美国的公司，还是开放的指令构建平台，它不仅限于一个网站和指令标准，也不是芯片公司，因此，它是一个开源平台。故选C。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第一段“For all programmers and processor industry participants, the RISC-V website is almost a must-visit as an open standard. Instruction Set Architecture, which is defined as the design of a computer from the programmer’s perspective, enabling a new era of processor innovation through open cooperation. (对于所有程序员和处理器行业的参与者来说，RISC-V网站几乎是一个必须访问的开放标准。指令集架构，它被定义为从程序员的角度设计计算机，通过开放合作实现处理器创新的新时代。)”可知，第一段介绍了RISC-V网站对程序员的研究的重要性，为了引入全文的背景知识。故选B。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第三段第一句“Maybe the legislators (立法者) do not realize that by targeting RISC-V they are targeting not only a company or a platform but the idea of openness itself. (也许立法者没有意识到，通过针对RISC-V，他们针对的不仅仅是一家公司或一个平台，而是开放的理念本身。)”讲美国针对RISC-V其实是针对开放性本身；第四段第二句“Open source is a good computing tool that benefits those who share programs as well as those who learn from it. (开源是一种很好的计算工具，对那些共享程序的人以及从中学习的人都有好处。)”说明科技开放性会惠及自身和其他人。由此可知，对于美国针对RISC-V，作者重点强调开放性。故选D。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章倒数第二段“Open source is a good computing tool that benefits those who share programs as well as those who learn from it. The Android smartphone system, for example, has developed largely because Google decided to make it an open-source system, which attracted worldwide smartphone businesses to adopt its standard. (开源是一种很好的计算工具，对那些共享程序的人以及从中学习的人都有好处。例如，安卓智能手机系统的发展很大程度上是因为谷歌决定将其作为一个开源系统，吸引了全球智能手机企业采用其标准。)”可知，科技开放性对分享者和学习者都有好处，作者利用安卓系统的例子证明了这一点。故选C。 第二部分（满分12.5分） The Secret to Taking Great Notes Taking good notes is a key part of the learning process. However, merely writing down what you hear word-for-word is ineffective. Here are some proven strategies to transform your note-taking. One of the most popular and structured systems is the Cornell Method, developed for and widely taught at Cornell University. ____16____ This physical layout guides your thinking process. During class, take notes in the main section. After class, use the cue column to write keywords or questions. Finally, write a brief summary of the entire lesson at the bottom of the page. This multi-step process is scientifically proven to significantly improve long-term memory retention. For those who think in images and connections, Mind Mapping is a visual way to organize information. Start with the main topic in the center and draw branches out for key subtopics. ____17____ You can use colors, symbols, and arrows to make connections. This method is especially beneficial for visual learners as it shows the relationships between concepts, making complex topics easier to grasp. Regardless of the method you choose, the core principle is active engagement. Don’t just passively record information. ____18____ Engage with the material by paraphrasing the speaker’s points. This forces you to process and understand the information on the spot. Of course, the best method is the one that works for you. ____19____ You might use the Cornell Method for history lectures, which are dense with facts, but a Mind Map for brainstorming an essay topic. You might even combine different elements from various methods to create your own personalized system. ____20____ Review your notes periodically within 24 hours of taking them. This short, spaced repetition is one of the most powerful ways to move information from your short-term to your long-term memory, solidifying your learning and making exam preparation much less stressful. A. Then, add smaller branches for specific details. B. Therefore, it is popular among university students. C. Ultimately, it’s crucial to review your notes afterward. D. Experiment with different techniques to find your favorite. E. This means you can paraphrase the content in your own words. F. Instead, focus on summarizing the main idea in simple elegant words. G. It divides your paper into a cue column, a notes section, and a summary area. 【答案】16. G 17. A 18. F 19. D 20. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了做好笔记的关键是主动参与，分享了康奈尔笔记法、思维导图等实用策略，建议选择适配方法并定期复习，助力巩固学习。 【16题详解】 由上文“One of the most popular and structured systems is the Cornell Method, developed for and widely taught at Cornell University.(康奈尔笔记法是最受欢迎且结构化的方法之一，为康奈尔大学开发并广泛教授)”和下文“This physical layout guides your thinking process.

She was asking for the moment in which “you felt the best, you felt that you had the world in the palm of your hand. ” Some described grand awards; others described winning a tournament. But I felt the best when I first learned how to ride my bike at thirteen. I didn’t mind my classmate’s stares and snickering, because I knew there was more to the story. My brother and I shared a typical brotherly relationship: we couldn’t stand each other. Or, to be honest, he couldn’t stand me. I hero-worshipped him. My clothes mysteriously looked like his, and even my words tended to mimic those I heard from him. Many times, I even wanted to literally follow my brother, sobbing every time I was prevented from hanging around with him. Needless to say, I was an annoyance to him. Any sort of conversation we had usually degraded to fighting, and try as I might, my brother usually won. After a while, I stopped trying to impress him and learned to be totally indifferent; perhaps the silent treatment would get more approval. I was wrong. We soon fell into a sad pattern—I avoided him, he ignored me, and deep inside, it hurt. Indifferent or hostile, he was only a brother in name. So that’s how it was between us. I believed we would forever be apart, two housemates without conversation, two strangers without warmth. And nothing more. I still remember the day I learned to ride a bike. I had received it that Christmas, which was great, until I realized I had no idea how to ride it. My mom was too busy and had long since abandoned any attempt to teach me. I decided to teach myself to ride, a little bit each day, but in vain. On that fateful day, it was no different. I was coming to the end of my daily one-hour torture, and I was so frustrated that I threw my bike aside and began to cry. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150左右; 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 I guess that was what caused my brother to come outside. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ An hour later, I was showing off my riding skill to my mom. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 I guess that was what caused my brother to come outside. I turned my face away, fearing he would tease me. Unexpectedly, he gently picked my bike up and gestured me over, “Get on it.” His determined look smoothed away my doubts. As he gripped the back seat, I got on the bike, took a deep breath and started to pedal, holding tightly onto the handlebars. During the whole process, we didn’t talk much. He simply offered a few necessary instructions at times. But never once did he shout at me, nor did he let me fall. His patient teaching proved efficient and I gradually got the hang of riding. An hour later, I was showing off my riding skill to my mom. She was amazed to see me riding steadily around the yard. While sharing my learning experience with her in excitement, I noticed my brother standing at a distance smiling at me. I cast him a grateful look and he nodded and then walked back into the house. From that day on, the sad pattern between us began to change. There were occasional conversations between us, filled with less embarrassment but increasing concern. I could feel a different kind of brotherly relationship slowly developing between us. I would always treasure that day as my favourite memory, the moment when I felt the best. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开。讲述了作者最美好的回忆——哥哥教自己骑自行车的经历。作者和哥哥从小关系不好，很少交流，但由于父母忙于工作，无法教作者骑自行车，哥哥却主动教会了作者骑自行车，兄弟俩的关系也开始变得融洽。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“我想这就是我哥哥出来的原因。”可知，第一段可描写哥哥教作者骑自行车的经过。 ②由第二段首句内容“一个小时后，我向我妈妈展示了我的骑术。”可知，第二段可描写作者向哥哥表示感谢，兄弟俩的关系也逐渐变得融洽。 2.续写线索：回忆往事——兄弟嫌隙——学习骑车——哥哥帮助——充满感谢——关系缓和 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①嘲笑：tease/make fun of/mock ②消除：smooth away/remove/dispel ③摔倒：fall/fall over/tumble 情绪类 ①惊讶的：amazed/surprised ②感激的：grateful/thankful/appreciative 【点睛】[高分句型1] But never once did he shout at me, nor did he let me fall.（运用了否定副词提前的部分倒装句） [高分句型2]I would always treasure that day as my favourite memory, the moment when I felt the best.（运用了when引导的定语从句） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 2025-2026学年度第一学期12月学业水平质量监测 高二英语试题 （共10页 满分150分 考试时间120分钟） 一、阅读理解（共两部分 满分50分) 第一部分 （满分37.5分） A Portal Information for Current AARP Volunteers What is the Volunteer Portal?

Greatly fascinated, I decided to pursue a systematic study. I applied to Yunnan University of Chinese Medicine, and I was overjoyed the day I received my admission letter. At the beginning, the ancient Chinese classics and complex processes of herb collection, identification and combination were quite challenging to me. Fortunately, I had the patient guidance of professors and the enthusiastic help of classmates to rely on. I remember when I first started learning acupuncture (针灸), I was often too hesitant to actually use the needles. To encourage me, my senior classmates generously acted as patients, braving the discomfort to let me practice acupuncture techniques on their bodies. With their support and motivation, my acupuncture skills steadily improved, and my studies quickly got on track. During my learning journey, the most memorable experience was my internship (实习) at the Yunnan Provincial Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine. There, I had the opportunity to participate directly in patient care. I looked forward to every Saturday afternoon when I could shadow my teacher. After each patient consultation, she would give me a detailed explanation: what the patient’s pulse (脉搏) indicated, what it represented in terms of their conditions, and the role of each herb in the prescription (处方). This approach helped shape my diagnostic thinking and was incredibly beneficial to me. Even though this meant she could never leave work on time, she never complained. As an ancient Chinese saying goes, “It’s easier to get a teacher of classics than a teacher of character.” My every day in China has been filled with challenges and surprises. TCM has taught me not just the skills to heal and save lives but how to view life. I have come to understand that the power of culture lies more in its ability to connect hearts than in its uniqueness. People from different cultural backgrounds can actually form strong connections. 4. Which of the following did the author find difficult when starting studying TCM? A. How to collect ancient Chinese classics. B. How to combine different herbs properly. C. How to communicate effectively with professors. D. How to understand the ancient Chinese philosophy. 5. Why does the author mention the experience of learning acupuncture? A. To show the complexity of acupuncture. B. To introduce the procedures of studying TCM. C.

What does the author learn from the experience of studying TCM? A. Life is precious. B. Hard work pays off. C. Uniqueness unites, not divides. D. Culture is a bridge, not a wall. C Most people hate mosquitoes — but scientists are about to build a “mosquito factory” to release modified mosquitoes. The modified mosquitoes carry a bacterium called Wolbachia pipientis (沃尔巴克氏菌), which can be naturally found in most insect species. However, it’s rarely discovered in mosquitoes. “We actually grow these mosquitoes that contain the bacterium,” Scott O’Neill, an Australian scientist who is involved in the project, told CBC News. When the modified mosquitoes are released, they slowly spread the bacterium to the population. Several studies have demonstrated the insects’ success. For example, a controlled experiment in Indonesia showed that the modified insect helped reduce the cases of the disease dengue (登革热) by 77 percent, according to a study paper published in 2021. The World Mosquito Program has announced that it will release modified mosquitoes in many of Brazil’s urban areas over the next 10 years. The aim is to protect up to 70 million people from diseases such as dengue, a disease mainly spread by mosquitoes. Dengue patients may have mild symptoms (症状) like fever, but severe cases can lead to death. Brazil has one of the highest rates of dengue infection in the world, according to the Nature website. “More than 1,000 people died of dengue in 2022 because of the spread of mosquitoes. It’s going everywhere,” Luciano Moreira, a scientist at the Oswaldo Cruz Foundation in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, told CBC News. Another way to prevent mosquitoes from spreading diseases is by producing genetically modified (GM，转基因的) mosquitoes. In 2022, the US Environmental Protection Agency cleared the release of 2.4 billion GM mosquitoes in California and Florida. According to the agency, GM mosquitoes carry two types of genes: a self-limiting gene that prevents female offspring (后代) from surviving to adulthood; and a marker gene that allows researchers to identify GM ones in the wild. After being released, GM mosquitoes lay eggs, so the genes are passed on to offspring. In this way, the number of female mosquitoes is reduced, therefore reducing the chance of spreading disease. 8. Why are the modified mosquitoes grown according to Scott O’Neill? A. To prevent mosquitoes from biting people. B. To make money for the scientists involved. C. To reduce the number of insects in the world. D. To spread a bacterium called Wolbachia pipientis. 9. What can we learn about the release of modified mosquitoes in Brazil? A. The decision to do so is only based on scientific research. B. The program will immediately reduce dengue cases by 77%. C. The high infection rate of dengue in Brazil is a key factor to it. D. The program aims to remove dengue completely within the next decade. 10. What does the underlined word “cleared” in paragraph 6 mean? A. Permitted. B. Removed. C. Disturbed. D. Restricted. 11. What might be the best title for the text? A. The Benefits of Mosquitoes B. Modified Mosquitoes to Fight Diseases C. The World Mosquito Program’s Success D. Genetic Engineering in Medical Research D For all programmers and processor industry participants, the RISC-V website is almost a must-visit as an open standard. Instruction Set Architecture, which is defined as the design of a computer from the programmer’s perspective, enabling a new era of processor innovation through open cooperation. Unlike X86 and ARM, which are owned by certain enterprises, RISC-V is an open one, allowing anybody to download its instructions handbook and use it. Maybe that is why some US lawmakers are targeting RISC-V. Republican Senator Marco Rubio and Democratic Senator Mark Warner have reportedly been urging US President Joe Biden to take action regarding RISC-V, because, they fear that Chinese companies might make use of the open-source platform to improve their chips (芯片) technology. Maybe the legislators (立法者) do not realize that by targeting RISC-V they are targeting not only a company or a platform but the idea of openness itself. Being a US company. RISC-V has a global membership, with a number of Chinese and US enterprises as members. It has for long been known as an open-minded institution promoting technological cooperation despite the political tensions, and the US lawmakers targeting it seem to be closing one of the last channels of technology communication between China and their nation. By doing so they are harming the United States’ own interests and its technological leadership in the world. Open source is a good computing tool that benefits those who share programs as well as those who learn from it. The Android smartphone system, for example, has developed largely because Google decided to make it an open-source system, which attracted worldwide smartphone businesses to adopt its standard. The US lawmakers might next target GitHub, or, some day, even forbid programmers from accessing the Internet. That will only lead to the US losing its technological edge, never to get it back again. 12. What is RISC-V according to the passage? A. A website for programmers. B. A computer design standard. C. An open-source platform. D. A US chips company. 13. The first paragraph serves as a (n) ________. A. argument B. background C. proof D. connection 14. What does the author mainly emphasize about US targeting RISC-V? A. Fairness. B. Interests. C. Cooperation. D. Openness. 15. Which can be inferred from the passage? A. RISC-V enables processor innovation through open cooperation. B. US lawmakers are targeting RISC-V for the technology safety concern. C. The example of Android demonstrates the benefits of technological openness. D. GitHub and the Internet are the next target US will focus on to safeguard its leadership. 第二部分（满分12.5分） The Secret to Taking Great Notes Taking good notes is a key part of the learning process. However, merely writing down what you hear word-for-word is ineffective. Here are some proven strategies to transform your note-taking. One of the most popular and structured systems is the Cornell Method, developed for and widely taught at Cornell University. ____16____ This physical layout guides your thinking process. During class, take notes in the main section. After class, use the cue column to write keywords or questions. Finally, write a brief summary of the entire lesson at the bottom of the page. This multi-step process is scientifically proven to significantly improve long-term memory retention. For those who think in images and connections, Mind Mapping is a visual way to organize information. Start with the main topic in the center and draw branches out for key subtopics. ____17____ You can use colors, symbols, and arrows to make connections. This method is especially beneficial for visual learners as it shows the relationships between concepts, making complex topics easier to grasp. Regardless of the method you choose, the core principle is active engagement. Don’t just passively record information. ____18____ Engage with the material by paraphrasing the speaker’s points. This forces you to process and understand the information on the spot. Of course, the best method is the one that works for you. ____19____ You might use the Cornell Method for history lectures, which are dense with facts, but a Mind Map for brainstorming an essay topic. You might even combine different elements from various methods to create your own personalized system. ____20____ Review your notes periodically within 24 hours of taking them. This short, spaced repetition is one of the most powerful ways to move information from your short-term to your long-term memory, solidifying your learning and making exam preparation much less stressful. A. Then, add smaller branches for specific details. B. Therefore, it is popular among university students. C. Ultimately, it’s crucial to review your notes afterward. D. Experiment with different techniques to find your favorite. E. This means you can paraphrase the content in your own words. F. Instead, focus on summarizing the main idea in simple elegant words. G. It divides your paper into a cue column, a notes section, and a summary area. 二、完形填空（共15小题 满分15分） Jacky Hunt-Broersma, a native of South Africa, set her goal in mid-January.

She was asking for the moment in which “you felt the best, you felt that you had the world in the palm of your hand. ” Some described grand awards; others described winning a tournament. But I felt the best when I first learned how to ride my bike at thirteen. I didn’t mind my classmate’s stares and snickering, because I knew there was more to the story. My brother and I shared a typical brotherly relationship: we couldn’t stand each other. Or, to be honest, he couldn’t stand me. I hero-worshipped him. My clothes mysteriously looked like his, and even my words tended to mimic those I heard from him. Many times, I even wanted to literally follow my brother, sobbing every time I was prevented from hanging around with him. Needless to say, I was an annoyance to him. Any sort of conversation we had usually degraded to fighting, and try as I might, my brother usually won. After a while, I stopped trying to impress him and learned to be totally indifferent; perhaps the silent treatment would get more approval. I was wrong. We soon fell into a sad pattern—I avoided him, he ignored me, and deep inside, it hurt. Indifferent or hostile, he was only a brother in name. So that’s how it was between us. I believed we would forever be apart, two housemates without conversation, two strangers without warmth. And nothing more. I still remember the day I learned to ride a bike. I had received it that Christmas, which was great, until I realized I had no idea how to ride it. My mom was too busy and had long since abandoned any attempt to teach me. I decided to teach myself to ride, a little bit each day, but in vain. On that fateful day, it was no different. I was coming to the end of my daily one-hour torture, and I was so frustrated that I threw my bike aside and began to cry. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150左右; 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 I guess that was what caused my brother to come outside. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ An hour later, I was showing off my riding skill to my mom. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
