After reaching sexual maturity, this jellyfish can turn back into its young form and then mature again — a process similar to a butterfly turning back into a caterpillar and then changing into a butterfly again. The deep-sea creature’s life cycle could theoretically be repeated forever, earning this species, called Turritopsis dohrnii, the nickname: the “immortal jellyfish”. Like a typical jellyfish, T. dohrnii begins its life as a free-floating larva (幼体) and matures into a branching, plant-like polyp (水螅体) . From there, multiple young jellyfish grow out of the polyp and turn into adults. However, the difference is that when an adult T. dohrnii is damaged or stressed, instead of dying, it absorbs its own arms and becomes a blob that settles to the sea floor. Over the next day and a half, this blob transforms into a new polyp, which can then form more jellyfish. Therefore, though T. dohrnii may be eaten by predators, it does not die of old age. A new study compared T. dohrnii to T. rubra, a related jellyfish species that undergoes normal aging. Compared to its relative, researchers found that T. dohrnii has twice as many genes that repair and protect DNA. This allows T. dohrnii to generate more restorative proteins. Researchers also found differences in several other genes, including those associated with replication and the stem cell population. These differences may be key to the jellyfish’s immortality. Researchers say these findings could help humans — but not in the exact same way. They believe their study could help find better answers to the many diseases associated with aging. They also hope a better understanding of these jellyfish genes might inspire regenerative medicine for humans. 8. Why does the author mention a butterfly in the first paragraph? A. To explain the aging process of T. dohrnii. B. To emphasize the small size of T. dohrnii. C. To present the living habits of T. dohrnii. D. To show the special life cycle of T. dohrnii. 9. How does T. dohrnii differ from other jellyfish species? A. It can avoid dying of old age. B. It goes through a polyp stage. C. It can transform to defend itself. D. It has very few natural enemies. 10. What is paragraph 3 mainly about? A. The specific findings of the new study. B. The social significance of the research. C. The detailed procedures of the research. D. The possible limitations of the new study. 11. What can be a suitable title of the text? A. Predators of the Deep: How the “Immortal Jellyfish” Survives through Various Conditions. B. Unlocking Immortality: The Genetic Secret s of the Jellyfish That Reverses Aging. C. From Polyp to Jellyfish: The Unique Lifecycle of a Deep-Sea Jellyfish. D. Human Immortality on the Horizon? Lessons from a Jellyfish. 【答案】8. D 9. A 10. A 11. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了灯塔水母（Turritopsis dohrnii）这一特殊的水母种类，它具有一种非凡的逆生长能力，理论上可以无限循环其生命周期，因此被称为“不老水母”。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“After reaching sexual maturity, this jellyfish can turn back into its young form and then mature again — a process similar to a butterfly turning back into a caterpillar and then changing into a butterfly again.(这种水母在达到性成熟后，可以变回幼体形态，然后再次成熟——这个过程类似于蝴蝶变回毛毛虫，然后再变成蝴蝶。)”可知，作者提到蝴蝶是为了展示灯塔水母的特殊生命周期。故选D。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“Therefore, though T. dohrnii may be eaten by predators, it does not die of old age.(因此，尽管T. dohrnii可能会被捕食者吃掉，但它不会因衰老而死亡。)”可知，T. dohrnii与其他水母种类的不同之处在于它可以避免死于衰老。故选A。 【10题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第三段“A new study compared T. dohrnii to T. rubra, a related jellyfish species that undergoes normal aging. Compared to its relative, researchers found that T. dohrnii has twice as many genes that repair and protect DNA. This allows T. dohrnii to generate more restorative proteins. Researchers also found differences in several other genes, including those associated with replication and the stem cell population. These differences may be key to the jellyfish’s immortality.(一项新研究将灯塔水母（T. dohrnii）与相近物种T. rubra进行了对比 —— 后者会经历正常的衰老过程。研究人员发现，与这种近亲水母相比，灯塔水母拥有两倍于其的 DNA 修复与保护相关基因。这使得灯塔水母能够产生更多具有修复功能的蛋白质。研究人员还发现了其他多个基因的差异，包括那些与 DNA 复制及干细胞群相关的基因。这些差异可能是这种水母实现永生的关键所在。)”可知，第三段主要介绍了新研究的具体发现。故选A。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。文章主要介绍了灯塔水母（Turritopsis dohrnii）这一特殊的水母种类，它具有一种非凡的逆生长能力，理论上可以无限循环其生命周期，因此被称为“不老水母”。短文还介绍了研究人员对灯塔水母的研究，发现其不老的原因可能与其修复和保护DNA的基因数量较多有关。由此可知，短文主要介绍了灯塔水母逆转衰老的基因秘密，选项B“解锁不老之谜：逆转衰老的水母的基因秘密”适合作为本文标题。故选B。 D Fooled by Randomness is a famous book in Nassim Nicholas Taleb’s landmark Incerto series an investigation of luck, uncertainty, probability, human error, risk, and decision-making in a world we don’t understand. Now in a striking new hardcover edition, Fooled by Randomness will change the way you think about business and the world. Nassim Nicholas Taleb has written a modern classic that turns on its head what we believe about luck and skill. This book is about luck — or more precisely, about how we perceive and deal with luck in life and business. Set against the background of the most notable forum in which luck is mistaken for skill — the world of trading — Fooled by Randomness provides captivating insight into one of the least understood factors in all our lives. Writing in an entertaining narrative style, the author tackles major intellectual issues related to the underestimation of the influence of happenstance on our lives. The book is populated with a number of characters, some of whom have grasped, in their own way, the significance of chance: the baseball legend Yogi Berra; the philosopher of knowledge KarlPopper; the modern financier George Soros; and the Greek voyager Odysseus. We also meet the fictional Nero, who seems to understand the role of randomness in his professional life but falls victim to his own irrational foolishness. However, the most recognizable character of all remains unnamed — the lucky fool who happens to be in the right place at the right time — he embodies the “survival of the least fit.” Such individuals attract devoted followers who believe in their mentor’s (导师) insights and methods. But no one can copy what is obtained by chance. Are we capable of distinguishing the fortunate charlatan (冒充内行的人) from the genuine innovator? Must we always try to uncover nonexistent messages in random events? It may be impossible to guard ourselves against the unpredictability of the goddess. Fortunately, but after reading Fooled by Randomness we can be a little better prepared. 12. What is Fooled by Randomness mainly about? A. The success of modern traders. B. The importance of skill in trading. C. The role of luck in life and business. D. The impact of human errors on decision-making. 13. What’s the purpose of mentioning the characters in paragraph 4? A. To emphasize their success in the trading world. B. To highlight the significance of their achievements. C. To illustrate how foolishness always leads to failure. D. To show examples of those who understood randomness. 14. What does “lucky fool” in paragraph 5 really refer to? A. A trader known for their skill and achievements. B. A scholar famous for their insights and methods. C. A person who foolishly undervalues hard work and devotion. D. Someone who succeeds mainly by chance rather than by skill. 15. According to the passage, what mistake do people often make? A. They underestimate their personal abilities. B. They overlook significant events in daily life. C. They depend heavily on guidance from mentors. D. They fail to see how chance contributes to their success. 【答案】12. C 13. D 14. D 15. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了纳西姆・尼古拉斯・塔勒布的著作《随机漫步的傻瓜》：该书聚焦“运气在生活与商业中的作用”，以交易领域为背景，通过真实与虚构人物案例，探讨人们对随机性的认知误区，帮助读者更好地应对不确定性。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“This book is about luck — or more precisely, about how we perceive and deal with luck in life and business. (这本书是关于运气的，或者更确切地说，是关于我们如何在生活和商业中感知和处理运气的)”可知，该书核心内容是运气在生活与商业中的角色。故选C。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“The book is populated with a number of characters, some of whom have grasped, in their own way, the significance of chance: the baseball legend Yogi Berra; the philosopher of knowledge Karl Popper; the modern financier George Soros; and the Greek voyager Odysseus. (这本书中有许多人物，其中一些人以自己的方式掌握了机会的意义：棒球传奇人物尤吉·贝拉；知识哲学家卡尔·波普尔；现代金融家乔治·索罗斯；还有希腊航海家奥德修斯)”可知，提及这些人物是为了举例说明那些以自身方式理解随机性重要性的人。故选D。 【14题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第五段“However, the most recognizable character of all remains unnamed — the lucky fool who happens to be in the right place at the right time — he embodies the “survival of the least fit.”(然而，最知名的角色仍然没有命名——the lucky fool ，碰巧在正确的时间出现在正确的地方——他体现了“最不合适的人的生存”)”以及第六段“Such individuals attract devoted followers who believe in their mentor’s (导师) insights and methods. But no one can copy what is obtained by chance.(这些人吸引了忠实的追随者，他们相信导师的见解和方法。但没有人能复制偶然获得的东西)”可知，lucky fool碰巧在正确的时间出现在正确的地方，指“恰好天时地利成功、靠运气而非技能的人”。故选D。 【15题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“Writing in an entertaining narrative style, the author tackles major intellectual issues related to the underestimation of the influence of happenstance on our lives.(作者以一种有趣的叙事风格写作，探讨了与低估偶然事件对我们生活的影响有关的主要知识问题)”、第五段 “However, the most recognizable character of all remains unnamed — the lucky fool who happens to be in the right place at the right time — he embodies the “survival of the least fit.”(然而，最知名的角色仍然没有命名——the lucky fool ，碰巧在正确的时间出现在正确的地方——他体现了“最不合适的人的生存”)”以及第六段“Such individuals attract devoted followers who believe in their mentor’s (导师) insights and methods. But no one can copy what is obtained by chance.(这些人吸引了忠实的追随者，他们相信导师的见解和方法。但没有人能复制偶然获得的东西)”可知，人们常犯的错误是未能意识到运气对成功的贡献，将运气误认为技能。故选D。 第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 阅读下面短文，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。 AI’s Place in Today’s Schools Artificial intelligence is entering classrooms worldwide.

I weaved my way through the mass of people and sat down next to my best friend, Lauren. “So, what exactly are we doing here?” she questioned. “Well, according to Mrs. Marks, we’re supposed to be listening to a speech about bullying and peer pressure.” As soon as the speaker started talking, I snapped to attention. She had this way about her, as if she knew how to reach into our minds and souls and make us think. I thought about the kids who came to school every day, despite knowing that they would have to face cruel comment all day long. One boy, in particular, came to mind. Every day, this boy came to school late, and I suspected it was because he needed to get medicine from the nurse. But this didn’t stop kids in the class from making fun of him. The boy would put his head down on his desk in shame. The worst, though, was when he tried to fight back. His attackers only laughed and continued the cruelty until the entire room was laughing at his expense. As I sat in the auditorium, absorbing everything the speaker had to say, thoughts of this poor boy crept into my head. “Now, before I leave today, I would like to give everyone here an opportunity to say anything he or she wants to on the subject of bullying or peer pressure. You may apologize to a friend, thank someone for his or her kindness, anything, and this is the one time I can promise that no one, will laugh at you.” The stillness in the room made me believe her. Slowly, I saw a few hands raise tentatively (犹豫地) in the air behind me. One girl wanted to apologize to a friend she had been ignoring recently. Another thanked a boy for his kindness when she slipped on the steps the other day. 注意：1. 续写词数应为100左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 It was then that my moment of courage arrived, inspiring me to act. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】It was then that my moment of courage arrived, inspiring me to act. With trembling hands and a pounding heart, I rose to my feet and recounted the story of the boy in my class. I described the cruel teasing he endured and our unawareness of his pain. Overwhelmed by emotion, I urged my classmates to put an end to the cruelty. As I finished speaking, a deafening silence enveloped the room. After what seemed like a century, soft clapping started in the front of the room, spreading throughout the entire audience. I knew I had touched something deep within us all. From that day on, people began to treat him a lot better. And I reckoned it was the speaker’s words of wisdom and our courage to change that made a huge difference to the boy and us as well. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了作者学校的学生一起在体育馆听一个关于欺凌和同伴压力的演讲，作者在听演讲的时候特别想起了一个男孩，他长期受到同学们的嘲笑，演讲快结束时，演讲者说现在有一个机会可以就欺凌或同伴压力这个问题发表自己的看法，可以向朋友道歉，感谢别人的好意，作者看到有的人举起了手。 【详解】1.段落续写： ① 由首句内容“就在那时，我的勇气来了，激励我采取行动。”可知，第一段可描写作者讲述那个男孩被嘲笑的事情，并呼吁同学们停止这种行为。 2.续写线索：站起来——描述男孩受到的嘲笑——强烈要求同学们停止嘲笑——同学们鼓掌——同学们改变对男孩的态度——感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ① 站起来：rise to one’s feet/stand up ② 笼罩：envelop/hang over 情绪类 ① 情绪激动：overwhelmed by emotion/suffering ② 残忍的：inhumane/cruel 【点睛】[高分句型1] After what seemed like a century, soft clapping started in the front of the room, spreading throughout the entire audience.

From a tender age, he was fascinated by colors, shapes, and the beauty of creation. However, he often felt discouraged, as he came from a poor family without any resources to pursue his passion. Fortunately, Jim crossed paths with Ms. Sophia, a kind and insightful art teacher. She recognized the spark of talent within him and was determined to nurture it. With her gentle guidance and encouragement, Jim began to explore the world of art, discovering new techniques and expressing his unique vision. Ms. Sophia’s teaching style was unlike any other. She believed in encouraging her students to think creatively and push beyond their limitations. She often organized art workshops and field trips, providing Jim and his classmates with invaluable experiences and inspiration. Under her mentorship, Jim’s artistic skills flourished. As the years passed, Jim’s confidence grew, and he began to participate in local art competitions. With each entry, he received recognition and praise for his original and captivating works. This further fueled his passion and drive to excel in the field of art. One fateful day, Jim received the news that he had been admitted into the prestigious Royal Artistic Academy. It was a dream that came true, as the academy was known for nurturing the finest artists in the country. Jim knew that this opportunity was a testament to his hard work, talent, and the constant encouragement he received from Ms. Sophia. Jim’s journey to success was not without challenges but it was the unconditional support and firm belief of his teacher that drove him forward. Ms. Sophia’s encouraging teaching style not only improved Jim’s artistic abilities but also instilled in him the confidence and resilience to pursue his dreams. Today, Jim stands as a shining example of what can be achieved when a teacher believes in a student’s potential and encourages them to reach for the stars. His story is a sound proof of the power of encouraging teaching and the impact it can have on a person’s life. 4. What was the main obstacle Jim faced in pursuing his dream of becoming an artist? A. He was not talented enough. B. He had no access to art materials. C. His family did not support his decision. D. He came from a humble background with limited resources. 5.

How did Jim’s participation in local art competitions benefit him? A. It helped him win scholarships to study abroad. B. It assuredly enhanced his determination and love for art. C.

Nothing beats the feeling of being recognized and praised. C In oceans across the globe, a tiny jellyfish (水母) species shows a remarkable death-defying ability. After reaching sexual maturity, this jellyfish can turn back into its young form and then mature again — a process similar to a butterfly turning back into a caterpillar and then changing into a butterfly again. The deep-sea creature’s life cycle could theoretically be repeated forever, earning this species, called Turritopsis dohrnii, the nickname: the “immortal jellyfish”. Like a typical jellyfish, T. dohrnii begins its life as a free-floating larva (幼体) and matures into a branching, plant-like polyp (水螅体) . From there, multiple young jellyfish grow out of the polyp and turn into adults. However, the difference is that when an adult T. dohrnii is damaged or stressed, instead of dying, it absorbs its own arms and becomes a blob that settles to the sea floor. Over the next day and a half, this blob transforms into a new polyp, which can then form more jellyfish. Therefore, though T. dohrnii may be eaten by predators, it does not die of old age. A new study compared T. dohrnii to T. rubra, a related jellyfish species that undergoes normal aging. Compared to its relative, researchers found that T. dohrnii has twice as many genes that repair and protect DNA. This allows T. dohrnii to generate more restorative proteins. Researchers also found differences in several other genes, including those associated with replication and the stem cell population. These differences may be key to the jellyfish’s immortality. Researchers say these findings could help humans — but not in the exact same way. They believe their study could help find better answers to the many diseases associated with aging. They also hope a better understanding of these jellyfish genes might inspire regenerative medicine for humans. 8. Why does the author mention a butterfly in the first paragraph? A. To explain the aging process of T. dohrnii. B. To emphasize the small size of T. dohrnii. C. To present the living habits of T. dohrnii. D. To show the special life cycle of T. dohrnii. 9. How does T. dohrnii differ from other jellyfish species? A. It can avoid dying of old age. B. It goes through a polyp stage. C. It can transform to defend itself. D. It has very few natural enemies. 10. What is paragraph 3 mainly about? A. The specific findings of the new study. B. The social significance of the research. C. The detailed procedures of the research. D. The possible limitations of the new study. 11. What can be a suitable title of the text? A. Predators of the Deep: How the “Immortal Jellyfish” Survives through Various Conditions. B. Unlocking Immortality: The Genetic Secret s of the Jellyfish That Reverses Aging. C. From Polyp to Jellyfish: The Unique Lifecycle of a Deep-Sea Jellyfish. D. Human Immortality on the Horizon? Lessons from a Jellyfish. D Fooled by Randomness is a famous book in Nassim Nicholas Taleb’s landmark Incerto series, an investigation of luck, uncertainty, probability, human error, risk, and decision-making in a world we don’t understand. Now in a striking new hardcover edition, Fooled by Randomness will change the way you think about business and the world. Nassim Nicholas Taleb has written a modern classic that turns on its head what we believe about luck and skill. This book is about luck — or more precisely, about how we perceive and deal with luck in life and business. Set against the background of the most notable forum in which luck is mistaken for skill — the world of trading — Fooled by Randomness provides captivating insight into one of the least understood factors in all our lives. Writing in an entertaining narrative style, the author tackles major intellectual issues related to the underestimation of the influence of happenstance on our lives. The book is populated with a number of characters, some of whom have grasped, in their own way, the significance of chance: the baseball legend Yogi Berra; the philosopher of knowledge KarlPopper; the modern financier George Soros; and the Greek voyager Odysseus. We also meet the fictional Nero, who seems to understand the role of randomness in his professional life but falls victim to his own irrational foolishness. However, the most recognizable character of all remains unnamed — the lucky fool who happens to be in the right place at the right time — he embodies the “survival of the least fit.” Such individuals attract devoted followers who believe in their mentor’s (导师) insights and methods. But no one can copy what is obtained by chance. Are we capable of distinguishing the fortunate charlatan (冒充内行的人) from the genuine innovator? Must we always try to uncover nonexistent messages in random events? It may be impossible to guard ourselves against the unpredictability of the goddess. Fortunately, but after reading Fooled by Randomness we can be a little better prepared. 12. What is Fooled by Randomness mainly about? A. The success of modern traders. B. The importance of skill in trading. C. The role of luck in life and business. D. The impact of human errors on decision-making. 13. What’s the purpose of mentioning the characters in paragraph 4? A. To emphasize their success in the trading world. B. To highlight the significance of their achievements. C. To illustrate how foolishness always leads to failure. D. To show examples of those who understood randomness. 14. What does “lucky fool” in paragraph 5 really refer to? A. A trader known for their skill and achievements. B. A scholar famous for their insights and methods. C. A person who foolishly undervalues hard work and devotion. D. Someone who succeeds mainly by chance rather than by skill. 15. According to the passage, what mistake do people often make? A. They underestimate their personal abilities. B. They overlook significant events in daily life. C. They depend heavily on guidance from mentors. D. They fail to see how chance contributes to their success. 第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 阅读下面短文，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。 AI’s Place in Today’s Schools Artificial intelligence is entering classrooms worldwide.

I weaved my way through the mass of people and sat down next to my best friend, Lauren. “So, what exactly are we doing here?” she questioned. “Well, according to Mrs. Marks, we’re supposed to be listening to a speech about bullying and peer pressure.” As soon as the speaker started talking, I snapped to attention. She had this way about her, as if she knew how to reach into our minds and souls and make us think. I thought about the kids who came to school every day, despite knowing that they would have to face cruel comment all day long. One boy, in particular, came to mind. Every day, this boy came to school late, and I suspected it was because he needed to get medicine from the nurse. But this didn’t stop kids in the class from making fun of him. The boy would put his head down on his desk in shame. The worst, though, was when he tried to fight back. His attackers only laughed and continued the cruelty until the entire room was laughing at his expense. As I sat in the auditorium, absorbing everything the speaker had to say, thoughts of this poor boy crept into my head. “Now, before I leave today, I would like to give everyone here an opportunity to say anything he or she wants to on the subject of bullying or peer pressure. You may apologize to a friend, thank someone for his or her kindness, anything, and this is the one time I can promise that no one, will laugh at you.” The stillness in the room made me believe her. Slowly, I saw a few hands raise tentatively (犹豫地) in the air behind me. One girl wanted to apologize to a friend she had been ignoring recently. Another thanked a boy for his kindness when she slipped on the steps the other day. 注意：1. 续写词数应为100左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 It was then that my moment of courage arrived, inspiring me to act. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
