Humility (谦逊) is of great value in Chinese culture. Here are two stories about it.
Young Su Shi and His Couplet (对联)
Su Shi was a famous poet in the Northern Song Dynasty. When he was a boy, he read a lot of books and wrote great articles. People highly praised him. He became a little too proud and wrote a couplet for himself.
A knowledgeable old man saw this couplet and thought, “He needs to learn about humility.” One day, the old man came to Su Shi’s house with a book.
“I am reading a book, but there are so many words I don’t know. I saw your couplet, so I was hoping you could teach me.”
Su Shi looked at the words but didn’t know any of them. His face turned red with shame. In fact, the old man knew every word in the book. Su Shi realized why the old man came. Then he went to rewrite the couplet.
Confucius Learning from Xiang Tuo
One day, while traveling, Confucius heard of a child named Xiang Tuo who was said to be very smart although he was young. So Confucius looked for Xiang Tuo and met him. Confucius, with great respect in his voice, said, “Young boy, I’ve heard about your cleverness. I’m willing to have a conversation with you.”
Xiang Tuo, unafraid and calm, answered Confucius’ questions confidently. His answers were sharp and unique (独特的). He told ancient legends that Confucius hadn’t known.
Instead of feeling ashamed of being outdone (胜过) by a child, Confucius listened carefully. Then he thanked Xiang Tuo sincerely, saying, “Today, from you, a young boy, __________. Thank you!”
Truly knowledge is endless, and humility is the key to unlocking more wisdom.

Researchers at Michigan State University recently found that bees’ sense of “smell” is sensitive enough to identify (识别) chemical smells of cancer. Bees sense chemicals in their environment using antennae (触须), which serve as “noses” to sense smells.
The researchers wrote in a study that honeybees can sniff (嗅) out lung cancer on a patient’s breath. “There is quite a bit of research that shows when some cancer grows inside our bodies, our breath actually changes. Our research does show that honeybees can detect lung cancer and possibly other diseases based on the smells of those cells (细胞).”
The scientists said that the bees could tell the difference between the cancer breath and the laboratory copy of the healthy human breath 93 percent of the time. The scientists added that the bees could also tell the difference between different kinds of lung cancer.
The discovery could help doctors detect many cancers, including lung, breast, head, and neck cancers, earlier than other methods. Saha says detecting cancers this way would be an improvement. “The reason is, many times we detect the cancer late, when a growth has become too big to control easily.” But, he added, when cancer starts growing, the breath starts changing much earlier.
He hopes to develop a system that a patient will be able to breathe into, and that can be carried around easily. This would deliver (递送) test results immediately. “Hopefully, within the next five years, we’ll have something to show that humans can be diagnosed (诊断) using these insect sensors,” Saha said.
41. How can bees identify the chemical smells of cancer?
A. By using their heads. B. By using chemicals.
C. By using their breath. D. By using their antennae.
42. What does the underlined word “detect” mean in Paragraph 2?
A. Discover. B. Breathe. C. Treat. D. Control.
43. Which paragraph shows the accuracy (准确性) of bees’ sense?
A. Paragraph 2. B. Paragraph 3. C. Paragraph 4. D. Paragraph 5.
44. What does Saha mean by saying “detecting cancers this way would be an improvement” in Paragraph 4?
A. Bees’ antennae serve as better “noses”.
B. Bees help to create a detecting machine.
C. Cancers can be detected before they grow too big.
D. The patient’s breath is mostly detected too late.
45. What does the underlined word “This” refer to in Paragraph 5?
A. A patient. B. A system. C. A test. D. A result.
【答案】41. D 42. A 43. B 44. C 45. B
【解析】

第三节 (每小题2分,满分10分)
阅读下面短文,根据短文内容,回答下列问题。
What do you do with your old clothes? You might throw them away, sell them or give them to people in need. No matter which way you choose, it’s always you who have to decide what to do. However, California put more responsibility (责任) onto clothing companies after the first US clothing recycling law was passed on September 28th, 2024.
This new law said that clothing companies should set up a program to reuse, repair and recycle their goods. What’s more, they would have to pay for the costs of the whole program.
The state hopes that the law can help to make less pollution. In 2021, about 1.2 million tons of old clothes were thrown away in California. While 95 percent are reusable or recyclable, only 15 percent are actually recycled.
It was reported that the law had got support from more than 150 groups, including environmental organizations and stores like IKEA. It would make the textile (纺织) industry better for the environment. It could also create over 1,000 new green jobs.
As a major (主要的) polluter, the fashion industry is responsible for nearly 10 percent of the world’s carbon emissions (排放), according to the United Nations. Other countries like France and the Netherlands also have laws on clothing recycling programs. In France, for example, there are 47,000 recycling centers.

If rainbows (彩虹) appear in the west at sunrise, rain is on the way. Smell the flowers —their smells are much ____81____ (strong) in wet air. Are the birds ____82____ (fly) low or high? Falling air pressure may affect ____83____ (they) ears, so they fly low. And if the sky is red at sunset, you might plan a picnic for the next day!

【78题详解】
句意:幸运的是,我们大多数人只需查看手机或打开电视就能知道未来的天气情况。根据“most of us can simply look at our smartphone or turn on the TV to find out what kind of weather is coming”可知,此处需要副词来修饰整个句子,表达“幸运地”含义,句首首字母大写。故填Luckily。
【79题详解】

Humility (谦逊) is of great value in Chinese culture. Here are two stories about it.
Young Su Shi and His Couplet (对联)
Su Shi was a famous poet in the Northern Song Dynasty. When he was a boy, he read a lot of books and wrote great articles. People highly praised him. He became a little too proud and wrote a couplet for himself.
A knowledgeable old man saw this couplet and thought, “He needs to learn about humility.” One day, the old man came to Su Shi’s house with a book.
“I am reading a book, but there are so many words I don’t know. I saw your couplet, so I was hoping you could teach me.”
Su Shi looked at the words but didn’t know any of them. His face turned red with shame. In fact, the old man knew every word in the book. Su Shi realized why the old man came. Then he went to rewrite the couplet.
Confucius Learning from Xiang Tuo
One day, while traveling, Confucius heard of a child named Xiang Tuo who was said to be very smart although he was young. So Confucius looked for Xiang Tuo and met him. Confucius, with great respect in his voice, said, “Young boy, I’ve heard about your cleverness. I’m willing to have a conversation with you.”
Xiang Tuo, unafraid and calm, answered Confucius’ questions confidently. His answers were sharp and unique (独特的). He told ancient legends that Confucius hadn’t known.
Instead of feeling ashamed of being outdone (胜过) by a child, Confucius listened carefully. Then he thanked Xiang Tuo sincerely, saying, “Today, from you, a young boy, __________. Thank you!”
Truly, knowledge is endless, and humility is the key to unlocking more wisdom.

Researchers at Michigan State University recently found that bees’ sense of “smell” is sensitive enough to identify (识别) chemical smells of cancer. Bees sense chemicals in their environment using antennae (触须), which serve as “noses” to sense smells.
The researchers wrote in a study that honeybees can sniff (嗅) out lung cancer on a patient’s breath. “There is quite a bit of research that shows when some cancer grows inside our bodies, our breath actually changes. Our research does show that honeybees can detect lung cancer and possibly other diseases based on the smells of those cells (细胞).”
The scientists said that the bees could tell the difference between the cancer breath and the laboratory copy of the healthy human breath 93 percent of the time. The scientists added that the bees could also tell the difference between different kinds of lung cancer.
The discovery could help doctors detect many cancers, including lung, breast, head, and neck cancers, earlier than other methods. Saha says detecting cancers this way would be an improvement. “The reason is, many times we detect the cancer late, when a growth has become too big to control easily.” But, he added, when cancer starts growing, the breath starts changing much earlier.
He hopes to develop a system that a patient will be able to breathe into, and that can be carried around easily. This would deliver (递送) test results immediately. “Hopefully, within the next five years, we’ll have something to show that humans can be diagnosed (诊断) using these insect sensors,” Saha said.
41. How can bees identify the chemical smells of cancer?
A. By using their heads. B. By using chemicals.
C. By using their breath. D. By using their antennae.
42. What does the underlined word “detect” mean in Paragraph 2?
A. Discover. B. Breathe. C. Treat. D. Control.

第三节 (每小题2分,满分10分)
阅读下面短文,根据短文内容,回答下列问题。
What do you do with your old clothes? You might throw them away, sell them or give them to people in need. No matter which way you choose, it’s always you who have to decide what to do. However, California put more responsibility (责任) onto clothing companies after the first US clothing recycling law was passed on September 28th, 2024.
This new law said that clothing companies should set up a program to reuse, repair and recycle their goods. What’s more, they would have to pay for the costs of the whole program.
The state hopes that the law can help to make less pollution. In 2021, about 1.2 million tons of old clothes were thrown away in California. While 95 percent are reusable or recyclable, only 15 percent are actually recycled.
It was reported that the law had got support from more than 150 groups, including environmental organizations and stores like IKEA. It would make the textile (纺织) industry better for the environment. It could also create over 1,000 new green jobs.
As a major (主要的) polluter, the fashion industry is responsible for nearly 10 percent of the world’s carbon emissions (排放), according to the United Nations. Other countries like France and the Netherlands also have laws on clothing recycling programs. In France, for example, there are 47,000 recycling centers.
