And now she has become a source of inspiration for millions through her story of faith, determination and hope. Her story has become a major movie which is named Soul Surfer.

I had no warning at all; not over the slightest sign of danger. That's all it took: a split second. I felt a lot of pressure and a couple of lightning fast fugs (猛拽) .

After losing more than 40 percent of her blood and making it through several surgeries, Bethany was well on her way to recovery due to an unbelievably positive attitude. She determined to go back again. In January 2004, Bethany made her return to surf competition and with no intention of stopping, Bethany continued to shine in competitions. Initially, she adopted a custom-made (定制的) board that was longer and slightly thicker than standard and had a handle for her right arm, making it easier to paddle, and she learned to kick more to make up for the loss of her left arm.
Just over a year after the attack, she took first place—winning her first National Title. Now she competes with the world's best and travels the globe. She says that she has learned a lot about life, love, and being strong. However, although so many things have happened to her, she says she is still just a surfer.

C
Some people think that success is only for those with talent or those who grow up in the right family, and others believe that success mostly comes down to luck. I’m not going to say luck,talent,and circumstances don’t come into play because they do. Some people are born into the right family while others are born with great intelligence, and that’s just the reality of how life is.
However,to succeed in life,one first needs to set a goal and then gradually make it more practical.And,in addition to that,in order to get really good at something,one needs to spend at least 10,000 hours studying and practicing.To become great at certain things,it’ll require even more time,time that most people won’t put in.
This is a big reason why many successful people advise you to do something you love. If you don’t enjoy what you do ,it is going to feel like unbearable pain and will likely make you quit well before you ever become good at it.
When you see people exhibiting some great skills or having achieved great success,you know that they have put in a huge part of their life to get there at a huge cost.It’s sometimes easy to think they got lucky or they were born with some rare talent,but thinking that way does you no good,and there’s a huge chance that you’re wrong anyway.
Whatever you do,if you want to become great at it, you need to work day in and day out,almost to the point of addiction,and over a long period of time.If you’re not willing to put in the time and work,don’t expect to receive any rewards.Consistent, hard work won’t guarantee you the level of success you may want, but it will guarantee that you will become really good at whatever it is you put all that work into.
46. Paragraph 1 mainly talks about ________.
A. the reasons for success B. the meaning of success
C. the standards of success D. the importance of success
47. In Paragraph 2,the underlined word that refers to ______.
A. being good at something B. setting a practical goal
C. putting in more time D. succeeding in life
48. Successful people suggest doing what one loves because ______.
A. work makes one feel pain B. one tends to enjoy his work
C. one gives up his work easily D. it takes a lot of time to succeed
49. What can we infer from Paragraph 4?
A. Successful people like to show their great skills.
B. People sometimes succeed without luck or talent.
C. People need to achieve success at the cost of life.
D. It helps to think that luck or talent leads to success.
50. What is the main theme of the passage?
A. Having a goal is vital to success.
B. Being good is different from being great.
C. One cannot succeed without time and practice.
D. Luck,talent and family help to achieve success.
【答案】46. A 47. B 48. D 49. B 50. C
【解析】
【分析】
【导语】本文是议论文。 成功的原因是什么?不是因为天赋,也不是因为出生于富裕家庭,靠的是时间的投入及不断练习。
【46题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段“Some people think that success is only for those with talent or those who grow up in the right family, and others believe that success mostly comes down to luck. I’m not going to say luck,talent,and circumstances don’t come into play because they do. Some people are born into the right family while others are born with great intelligence, and that’s just the reality of how life is.”(有些人认为成功只属于那些有天赋或有良好家庭环境的人,而另一些人则认为成功主要取决于运气。我并不是说运气、天赋和环境没有发挥作用,因为它们确实发挥了作用。有些人出生在正确的家庭,而另一些人出生就很聪明,这就是生活的现实。)可以得知,作者列出许多成功因素天赋、良好家庭环境、运气,故选A。
【47题详解】
词义猜词题。此种题目的答案多数在前文找,根据前文,不难得知答案。“However, to succeed in life, one first needs to set a goal and then gradually make it more practical. And, in additional to that, in order to get really good at something, one needs to spend at least 10,000 hours studying and practicing. ”(然而,要在生活中取得成功,你必须要设定一个目标,然后逐步将它变得更加实际。除此之外,要变得更加擅长某事,必须花费至少10,000个小时进行学习和实践。)可知,除此之外,指的是前面的设定实际的目标。此外,也可以从结构上找到答案,出现两次的needs. 属于原词重现。故选B。
【48题详解】
细节理解题。根据“To become great at certain things,it’ll require even more time,time that most people won’t put in.”(要精通某些事情,甚至需要更多的时间,而大多数人不会投入这些时间。)要想成功需要大量时间。以及第三段的“This is a big reason why many successful people advise you to do something you love. ”(这就是为什么许多成功人士建议你去做你喜欢的事情的一个重要原因。)可知答案的关键是this。而this 指代的内容刚好是与时间(To become great at certain things, it’ll require even more time, time that most people won’t put in.)有关。属于原词重现。故选D。
【49题详解】
推理判断题 。根据第四段“It's sometimes easy to think they got lucky or they were born with some rare talent, but thinking that way does you no good, and there's a huge chance that you're wrong anyway.” (很容易去认为他们是运气好,或者天生有些独特的天赋,但是这么想对你并无好处,而且极有可能你想错了。)可以得知很多人的成功并不是因为天赋或运气。通过but之后的内容“thinking that way does you no good, and there's a huge chance that you're wrong anyway.”不难得出答案。而且也可以通过排除法得出答案。A项的“show skills 展现技能”表达错误。C项的表达“at the cost of life 以生命为代价”是错误的,这不符合常理,但这道题最容易出错。D项可以根据第四段最后一句的does you no good排除。故选B。
【50题详解】
主旨大意题。通过文章最后一段主题句“Whatever you do , if you want to become great at it, you need to work day in and day out, almost to the point of addiction, and over a long period of time. ”(无论你做什么,如果你想在这方面做得很好,你需要日复一日地工作,几乎到上瘾的程度,而且要持续很长一段时间)以及文章多次提到要花费时间和精力可知正确选项为C。ABD项都是以偏概全。属于原词重现。故选C。
第II卷 非选择题(满分30分)
第一节:根据句意,完成句子(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)
阅读短文,按照题目要求用英语回答问题。
At a comedy night at Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore, Maryland, members of the school’s Stand-up Comedy Club (单口喜剧俱乐部) bring lots of laughter to their schoolmates. They give funny speeches, tell jokes and make humorous body movements. These college student comedians may feel unsure of themselves at first, but the experience is highly enjoyable. Their humor entertains their schoolmates and helps relieve the stress of these young, busy audience.
Ariella Shua joined the club last year. She says she has become a better observer of what is going on around her. She does not go anywhere without bringing something on which she can take notes. Later, when she’s trying to write her own set, she can look through it to see if there is anything that she can use.
Every school wants its students to perform best in their studies, but some colleges and universities also motivate their students to explore their abilities and develop interests beyond their field of study. Joining an on-campus club is a good way to do that.
Nicholas Scandura, the president of the comedy club, finds that writing is one of the many skills he has developed since joining the club. “Writing jokes is really fun,” he said. “It takes much critical thinking.”
The club gives its members a sense of community. When they meet, they share funny experiences, tell jokes and laugh. Over the past ten years, stand-up comedy clubs have become common on college campuses in America. He said now everyone wants to do it because the culture of stand-up has gotten a lot of media attention and become more popular.
Last year, Harry Kuperstein joined the club and discovered it was a natural fit. Noticing the funny qualities of different situations improved his way of looking at the world. Becoming an active member also helped him work on the future skills he will need as a medical doctor. “When talking to patients as a doctor, I think that having jokes ready to go might help smooth these interactions.” he said.
51. According to the passage, what is the contribution of the student comedians at Johns Hopkins University? (no more than 15 words)
____________________________________________________________________________________________
52. Why does Ariella Shua try to take notes wherever she goes? (no more than 10 words)
____________________________________________________________________________________________
53. What does the underlined word mean in Paragraph 3? (1 word) ?
____________________________________________________________________________________________
54. How will the club experience benefit Harry Kuperstein’s with his future career? (no more than 10 words)
____________________________________________________________________________________________
55. Do you think laughter plays an essential role in your life? Please explain it. (no more than 25 words)
____________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】51. Their humor entertains their schoolmates and helps relieve the stress of these young, busy audience.
52. Because she can record what is going on around her.
53. Inspire.
54. Having jokes ready to go will help communicate with patients.
55. Yes, I do. Because laughter not only allows me to face life optimistically, but also gives me the courage to overcome difficulties.
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。文章主要介绍了一所高校的单口喜剧俱乐部,并介绍了俱乐部给成员带来的帮助。
【51题详解】
考查细节理解。根据第一段关键句“Their humor entertains their schoolmates and helps relieve the stress of these young, busy audience. (他们的幽默逗乐了同学们,并帮助缓解了这些年轻、忙碌的观众的压力。)”可知,约翰·霍普金斯大学的学生喜剧演员们用他们的幽默逗乐了同学们,并帮助缓解了这些年轻、忙碌的观众的压力,由此可知,约翰·霍普金斯大学学生喜剧演员的贡献是“他们的幽默逗乐了同学们,并帮助缓解了这些年轻、忙碌的观众的压力。”故答案为Their humor entertains their schoolmates and helps relieve the stress of these young, busy audience.
【52题详解】

【53题详解】
考查词义猜测。根据划线单词句中“develop interests beyond their field of study (培养学习领域之外兴趣)”可知,学校也会培养学生学习领域之外的兴趣,由此可知,一些学校也激励学生探索自己的能力,“inspire”意为“激励”,能够表达划线单词motivate在句中表达的意思。故答案为Inspire。
【54题详解】
考查细节理解。根据最后一段关键句““When talking to patients as a doctor, I think that having jokes ready to go might help smooth these interactions.” he said. (他说:‘作为一名医生与患者交谈时,我认为准备好笑话可能有助于使这些互动更加顺畅。’)”可知,准备好笑话可能有助于和病人的互动更加顺畅,由此可知,俱乐部的经历对哈里·库珀斯坦未来的职业生涯的帮助在于“准备好笑话帮助他与病人的互动更加顺畅”。故答案为Having jokes ready to go will help communicate with patients.
【55题详解】
考查开放题。本题为开放性试题,答案合理即可,可参考文中内容,例如“Yes, I do. Because laughter not only allows me to face life optimistically, but also gives me the courage to overcome difficulties. (是的,我这样认为。因为微笑不仅能够让我乐观面对生活,而且让我拥有克服困难的勇气。)”。故答案为Yes, I do. Because laughter not only allows me to face life optimistically, but also gives me the courage to overcome difficulties.

【答案】
Dear Peter,
I know you’re worried that AI might replace jobs and make learning harder, but don’t be too anxious — many people feel the same way. The truth is, AI brings both challenges and chances, and staying positive helps us face them better.
While AI can do repetitive tasks, it can’t match human creativity or emotions, which are skills that will always be needed. What’s important is that we focus on improving ourselves in areas where AI falls short.
To adapt, try learning new skills like coding or design, which will help you work with AI. Also, spend time on hobbies or sports to stay healthy and happy. I believe what you do now will shape your bright future.
Yours,
Li Hua

Bethany Hamilton is a famous professional surfer. She surfs in competitions around the world. But life for her is queer with twists and turns. She has fought her way through ups and downs. And now she has become a source of inspiration for millions through her story of faith, determination and hope. Her story has become a major movie which is named Soul Surfer.
On October 31, 2003, at the age of 13, Bethany was attacked by a 15-foot tiger shark while surfing just off the shore of Hawaii. Bethany said, “It came out of the blue. I had no warning at all; not over the slightest sign of danger. That's all it took: a split second. I felt a lot of pressure and a couple of lightning fast fugs (猛拽) . Then I watched in shock as the water around me turned bright red. Somehow, I stayed calm. My left arm was gone along with a huge piece of my surfboard…”
After losing more than 40 percent of her blood and making it through several surgeries, Bethany was well on her way to recovery due to an unbelievably positive attitude. She determined to go back again. In January 2004, Bethany made her return to surf competition and with no intention of stopping, Bethany continued to shine in competitions. Initially, she adopted a custom-made (定制的) board that was longer and slightly thicker than standard and had a handle for her right arm, making it easier to paddle, and she learned to kick more to make up for the loss of her left arm.
Just over a year after the attack, she took first place—winning her first National Title. Now she competes with the world's best and travels the globe. She says that she has learned a lot about life, love, and being strong. However, although so many things have happened to her, she says she is still just a surfer.

Some people think that success is only for those with talent or those who grow up in the right family, and others believe that success mostly comes down to luck. I’m not going to say luck,talent,and circumstances don’t come into play because they do. Some people are born into the right family while others are born with great intelligence, and that’s just the reality of how life is.
However,to succeed in life,one first needs to set a goal and then gradually make it more practical.And,in addition to that,in order to get really good at something,one needs to spend at least 10,000 hours studying and practicing.To become great at certain things,it’ll require even more time,time that most people won’t put in.
This is a big reason why many successful people advise you to do something you love. If you don’t enjoy what you do ,it is going to feel like unbearable pain and will likely make you quit well before you ever become good at it.
When you see people exhibiting some great skills or having achieved great success,you know that they have put in a huge part of their life to get there at a huge cost.It’s sometimes easy to think they got lucky or they were born with some rare talent,but thinking that way does you no good,and there’s a huge chance that you’re wrong anyway.
Whatever you do,if you want to become great at it, you need to work day in and day out,almost to the point of addiction,and over a long period of time.If you’re not willing to put in the time and work,don’t expect to receive any rewards.Consistent, hard work won’t guarantee you the level of success you may want, but it will guarantee that you will become really good at whatever it is you put all that work into.
46. Paragraph 1 mainly talks about ________.
A. the reasons for success B. the meaning of success
C. the standards of success D. the importance of success
47. In Paragraph 2,the underlined word that refers to ______.

48. Successful people suggest doing what one loves because ______.
A. work makes one feel pain B. one tends to enjoy his work
C. one gives up his work easily D. it takes a lot of time to succeed
49. What can we infer from Paragraph 4?
A. Successful people like to show their great skills.
B. People sometimes succeed without luck or talent.
C. People need to achieve success at the cost of life.
D. It helps to think that luck or talent leads to success.
50. What is the main theme of the passage?
A. Having a goal is vital to success.
B. Being good is different from being great.

第一节:根据句意,完成句子(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)
阅读短文,按照题目要求用英语回答问题。
At a comedy night at Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore, Maryland, members of the school’s Stand-up Comedy Club (单口喜剧俱乐部) bring lots of laughter to their schoolmates. They give funny speeches, tell jokes and make humorous body movements. These college student comedians may feel unsure of themselves at first, but the experience is highly enjoyable. Their humor entertains their schoolmates and helps relieve the stress of these young, busy audience.
Ariella Shua joined the club last year. She says she has become a better observer of what is going on around her. She does not go anywhere without bringing something on which she can take notes. Later, when she’s trying to write her own set, she can look through it to see if there is anything that she can use.
Every school wants its students to perform best in their studies, but some colleges and universities also motivate their students to explore their abilities and develop interests beyond their field of study. Joining an on-campus club is a good way to do that.
Nicholas Scandura, the president of the comedy club, finds that writing is one of the many skills he has developed since joining the club. “Writing jokes is really fun,” he said. “It takes much critical thinking.”
The club gives its members a sense of community. When they meet, they share funny experiences, tell jokes and laugh. Over the past ten years, stand-up comedy clubs have become common on college campuses in America. He said now everyone wants to do it because the culture of stand-up has gotten a lot of media attention and become more popular.
Last year, Harry Kuperstein joined the club and discovered it was a natural fit. Noticing the funny qualities of different situations improved his way of looking at the world. Becoming an active member also helped him work on the future skills he will need as a medical doctor. “When talking to patients as a doctor, I think that having jokes ready to go might help smooth these interactions.” he said.
