From the author's experience, I learned that choosing a major should be based on one's true interests and passions rather than external expectations or family influence. Following one's heart leads to true happiness and fulfillment. 第二节（20分） One possible version: Dear Chris, I’m Li Hua. I’m writing to talk about the after-class oral English practice grouping. We think the random grouping of two students has some problems. Some students have different English levels, which may lead to situations where one dominates the conversation and the other has few chances to speak. Also, some students may not be familiar with their partners, feeling a bit shy and not being able to practice effectively. We suggest grouping us according to our English levels so that we can better match each other. And it would be greater if you could let us choose our partners within a certain range of levels. I sincerely hope you can consider our suggestions. Thank you! Yours, Li Hua （请务必将作文写在答题卡指定区域内） 2 / 2 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $………………○………………外………………○………………装………………○………………订………………○………………线………………○……………… ………………○………………内………………○………………装………………○………………订………………○………………线………………○……………… 此卷只装订不密封 ………………○………………内………………○………………装………………○………………订………………○………………线………………○……………… ………………○………………外………………○………………装………………○………………订………………○………………线………………○……………… … 学校：______________姓名：_____________班级：_______________考号：______________________ 2026年高考第一次模拟考试 高三英语 （考试时间：90分钟 试卷满分：100分） 注意事项： 1．答卷前，考生务必将自己的姓名、准考证号等填写在答题卡和试卷指定位置上。 2．回答选择题时，选出每小题答案后，用铅笔把答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑。如需改动，用橡皮擦干净后，再选涂其他答案标号。回答非选择题时，将答案写在答题卡上。写在本试卷上无效。 3．考试结束后，将本试卷和答题卡一并交回 第一部分：知识运用（共两节，30分） 第一节 （共10小题；每小题1.5分，共15分） 阅读下面短文，掌握其大意，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 （新情境）I was in Chicago for a job training when I knew a nearby theatre was releasing a film about saving dogs.

It was during one such moment that Mario, a once-promising star, stumbled and fell, his dream crashing down with the thud (砰的一声) of the skate blades on the ice. The initial shock was followed by a deep sense of despair. Doubts crept in, whispering that he might never rise again. Each day seemed darker than the last, as Mario struggled to find his footing in a world that suddenly felt so alien and unforgiving of himself. But within this darkness, Mario began to forgive himself and accept the reality. He remembered the countless hours of training, the sacrifices made, and the love for the sport that had burned so brightly before. Slowly, he picked himself up, dusted off the ice shards of defeat, and began to skate again. This time, it was different. Each fall became a lesson, each mistake an opportunity for growth. He learned to embrace his failures, using them as stepping stones to greater heights. With renewed determination, Mario pushed himself harder, skating with a newfound grace and power. Finally, the day arrived when our hero stepped onto the Olympic ice once more. This time, there was no fear, only focus. As the music swelled and he began his routine, every move flowed with effortless elegance. When the final note rang out, he knew he had done it. This young man had risen from the ashes of failure and embraced success again, stronger and more brilliant than before. As the crowd erupted in applause and the athlete stood center ice, a single tear traced down his cheek. It was a tear of joy, relief, and pride — a testament to the journey he had endured. At that moment, he understood that failure was not the end, but rather a beginning — a chance to rise stronger, wiser, and more determined. And so, Mario smiled, knowing that the road ahead, no matter how bumpy, would be filled with the sweet taste of victory and the knowledge that true success comes from overcoming the toughest challenges. 24. The figure skater felt so unforgiving of himself because . A. he fell and crashed down B. he failed the competition C. he struggled to stand on the ice D. his skate blades tripped on the ice 25. How did the athlete adjust himself back to the ice stage? A. He embraced all the tests to the journey. B. He acknowledged the failure and cheered himself up. C. He practiced more than before and endured all pains and hurts. D. He changed himself into a stronger, smarter and more powerful man. 26. Mario is a young man with the merit of . A. toughness and sentiments B. hard work and elegance C. perseverance and resilience D. generosity and humility 27. What can we learn from this story? A. Failure is the mother of success. B. Chances favor the prepared mind. C Constant dripping wears away the stone. D. What doesn’t kill you makes you stronger. C Consider these facts: The tennis champion Williams sisters are a generation apart, according to the Pew Research Center. Venus, born in 1980, is labelled “Gen X”; Serena, born in 1981, is a “millennial”. Meanwhile, Donald Trump and Michelle Obama both belong to the same generation. The former was born in 1946 while the latter was born in 1964, making them both “baby boomers”. Before you push these diverse personalities into generational stereotypes (刻板印象), let me stop you there: Just don’t. Generation labels, although widely adopted by the public, have no basis in social reality. In fact, in one recent survey, most people did not identify the correct generation for themselves, even when they were shown a list of options. This is not surprising since the labels are forced by survey researchers, journalists or marketing firms before the identities they are supposed to describe even exist. Instead of asking people which group they identify with and why, they just declare the labels and start making pronouncements about them. That’s not how social identity works. The practice of naming “generations” based on birth year goes back at least to the supposed “lost-generation” of the late 19th century. But as the tradition slid into a never-ending competition to be the first to propose the next name that sticks, it has produced gradually declining returns to social science and the public understanding. The supposed boundaries between generations are no more meaningful than the names they’ve been given. There is no research identifying the appropriate boundaries between generations, and there is no statistical basis for requiring the sweeping character traits (特征) that are believed to define them. In one article you might read that millennials are “liberal lions”, “downwardly mobile”, and “distrustful”; even though they also “get along well with their parents, respect their elders and work well with colleagues”. Ridiculous, clearly. But what’s the harm? Aren’t these labels just a bit of fun for writers? A method to attract readers and a way of communicating generational change, which no one would deny is a real phenomenon? We, in academic social science, study and teach social change, but we don’t study and teach these labels because they simply aren’t real. And in social science, reality still matters. Worse than irrelevant such baseless labels drive people toward stereotyping and thoughtless character judgment. Measuring and describing social change is essential, and it can be useful to analyze the historical period in which people were born and raised, but drawing random lines between birth years and assigning names to them doesn’t help. Today there are lots of good alternatives to label generations. We can simply describe people by the decade in which they were born and define generational groups specifically related to a particular issue-such as 2020 school kids. With the arrival of “Generation Z”, there has never been a better time to get off this train. 28. According to the passage, the author may agree that ________. A. the generation label is a harmless device writers use to reflect reality B. generation boundaries are more meaningful than generation labels C. assigning character traits to a certain generation is misguided D. journalists should find alternative ways to judge character 29 The underlined word “sticks” in Paragraph 4 probably means ________. A. is understood B. is analyzed C. is described D. is accepted 30. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage? A. Generation labels: It’s high time to retire them B. Generation labels: The ongoing debate will never end C. Generation labels: What do they say about who we are? D. Generation labels: Expand or bridge generational differences? D （新语境）Science should guide policy, but caution is needed when technologies like CRISPR have the potential to exclude rather than assist people to live their lives. CRISPR can be used to treat disease. Yet the far-reaching, more worrying promise of this technology — one about which scientists seem at once excited and cautious — lies in its ability to eliminate from the gene pool what medical science identifies as faulty or abnormal genes that cause difference in individual people. Certainly, goes the logic of CRISPR’s promise, the goal of ridding future generations of terrible diseases that cause suffering and death and exhaust resources, seems an unquestionable enterprise. This logic is consistent with wider societal views. The idea that ridding society of genetic differences that count as defect (缺陷) is an undeniable “good” continues to be pervasive. Editing out a gene-linked condition, supporters may argue, is different from editing out a person, and curing disease is a good thing. But our genetic conditions are not simply entities that can be clipped away from us and our genetic conditions form a fundamental part of who we are. Using genome manipulation tools and performing genetic selection is equal to a new form of eugenic (优生学的) thinking grounded in what the communications studies scholar James L. Chemey calls “common sense” ableism, a belief system that allows people to simultaneously deny any commitment to distasteful eugenic principles while also holding them up. Ultimately, “common sense” ableism embodies a similar goal of cleansing unacceptable human variations that the campaigns to eliminate the supposedly inferior have held in the past. People with “bad” genes shouldn’t be edited out of existence in some version of a utopian (乌托邦的) future. Evaluating the quality of life of another person is morally questionable in a society based on the concept that all people are of equal value regardless of their individual differences. Expanding diversity in all its forms, including disability, strengthens the human community ethically and biologically because it opens the public and private sphere to a variety of perspectives, experiences and ideas to live together with mutual flourishing. Genome editing is powerful in reshaping medical treatments, but it can also be harmful by editing out the kinds of people that medical science, and the society it has shaped, categorize as diseased or genetically contaminated — people who are understood as having bad genes. We should be reminded that bad genes don’t necessarily lead to bad lives, just as good genes don’t necessarily lead to good lives. If CRISPR is put to use to eliminate rather than to treat genetic difference, we as a society would essentially instrumentalize this moralistic and reductionist assumption. 31. According to the author, CRISPR is________. A. a necessary evil in treating severe diseases B. a questionable tool for removing faulty genes C. a promising technology to conserve resources D. a logical approach to improving human genetics 32. The author discusses “common sense” ableism in Paragraph 4 to________. A. compare genetic selection to eugenic thinking B. trace the evolution of genetic selection in history C. offer an example of campaigns to remove bad genes D. reveal the root of the societal view on genetic differences 33. What does the underlined part in the last sentence mean? A. People need to adopt more simplified solutions. B. The society should apply CRISPR into other fields. C. This belief might be widely practiced in the society. D. The technology will be used to create a utopian future. 34. Which would be the best title for this passage? A. The Dark Side of CRISPR B. In the Wake of Genetic Selection C In Defense of Our Bad Genes D. The Promise and Price of Gene Editing 第二节 （共5小题；每小题2分，共10分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。 In our constant pursuit of productivity and achievement, we often overlook the quality of our daily experiences. We fill our hours with tasks, yet wonder why we so frequently feel exhausted, distracted, or unsatisfied. What if the key to a more fulfilling life isn’t about doing more, but about doing differently? ___35___ Activities actually can be divided into different categories. Understanding what each category truly is helps make better choices. Pleasing activities are low-effort, high-reward. You don’t need to plan them far in advance or clear out a full afternoon. It might be a walk in nature, listening to your favorite playlist, or calling a friend just to say hello. ___36___ One of the biggest misconceptions about fun is that it has to be some grand event. In truth, the most restorative moments often come from these smaller, everyday pleasures. Living activities are the activities that stretch you. They might feel challenging at first, but they match with your values and leave you with a real sense of meaning. ___37___ These types of experiences take more effort than Pleasing activities, but they often help us feel more alive. Yielding activities are activities that require little effort but offer little satisfaction. ___38___ Or visualize the repeated check of your inbox without urgency. These activities can be harmless ways to relax. But when overused, they quietly replace more meaningful experiences. Once you’ve reflected on how you currently spend your time, try making one small shift each day. Choose a Pleasing or Living activity you would like to engage in more, even something simple like a short walk or trying something new that is consistent with your values. ___39___ A. Try to change how you handle these activities. B. Think of the mindless scanning through social media. C. This begins by recognizing that not all activities affect us equally. D. These are simple joys that don’t require much but offer a genuine reward. E. This could be doing the things that leave you exhausted. F. The goal is to replace distracted moments with engaged ones. G. It could be learning a new skill that pushes you out of your comfort zone. 第三部分 书面表达（共两节，32分） 第一节（共4小题；第40、41题各2分，第42题3分，第43题5分，共12分） 阅读下面短文，根据题目要求用英文回答问题。请在答题卡指定区域作答。 （新题材）My path was long to recognizing my vocation (职业) , much longer than it had to be. My parents were professors of engineering. Science was the horizon of possibility in my family; nothing else counted or even existed. No matter how much I loved to read and write, it never occurred to me to major in anything else. I had been curious about biology and psychology in high school, so when I knew Columbia offered a joint major in the two fields, I chose it on the spot. The feeling, other than excitement, was one of relief. I couldn’t bear the uncertainty that college represented. Instead of opening options up, I needed to shut them down. I had locked up three-quarters of my courses for the next four years, and I hadn’t even gone to a single class. There was no one there to stop me. I would mope (消沉) in the back of those lectures, reading a novel behind my notebook, unaware of the fact that I was trying to tell myself something. I don’t know exactly when things went wrong with my chosen course of study. By the time I realized that I should have been an English major, it was too late to make the switch. I ended up working in a tiny nonprofit that meant nothing to me, with no idea where I should go next. And then I happened to be visiting a friend in architecture school. She wasn’t happy, either; her program was way too pretentious and theoretical. We were walking along and she said, “I have to get out of graduate school. ” And I immediately thought “I have to go to graduate school. ” Meaning, I’ll never be happy until I give myself the chance to study English literature after all. Meaning, it’s not too late - I’m not going to let it be too late. Everything was suddenly clear and calm. It wasn’t easy getting in at that point. But for the first time in a long while, I performed at the top of my ability. I’d study for eighty hours a week and I had never been happier. 40. What family factor (s) influenced the author’s choice of major? ___________________________________________________ 41. What did the author realize at college? ___________________________________________________ 42. Please decide which part is false in the following statement, then underline it and explain why. The author was determined to get into graduate school because his friend persuaded him to do so. ___________________________________________________ 43. What have you learned from the author’s experience of choosing a major in college?

It was during one such moment that Mario, a once-promising star, stumbled and fell, his dream crashing down with the thud (砰的一声) of the skate blades on the ice. The initial shock was followed by a deep sense of despair. Doubts crept in, whispering that he might never rise again. Each day seemed darker than the last, as Mario struggled to find his footing in a world that suddenly felt so alien and unforgiving of himself. But within this darkness, Mario began to forgive himself and accept the reality. He remembered the countless hours of training, the sacrifices made, and the love for the sport that had burned so brightly before. Slowly, he picked himself up, dusted off the ice shards of defeat, and began to skate again. This time, it was different. Each fall became a lesson, each mistake an opportunity for growth. He learned to embrace his failures, using them as stepping stones to greater heights. With renewed determination, Mario pushed himself harder, skating with a newfound grace and power. Finally, the day arrived when our hero stepped onto the Olympic ice once more. This time, there was no fear, only focus. As the music swelled and he began his routine, every move flowed with effortless elegance. When the final note rang out, he knew he had done it. This young man had risen from the ashes of failure and embraced success again, stronger and more brilliant than before. As the crowd erupted in applause and the athlete stood center ice, a single tear traced down his cheek. It was a tear of joy, relief, and pride — a testament to the journey he had endured. At that moment, he understood that failure was not the end, but rather a beginning — a chance to rise stronger, wiser, and more determined. And so, Mario smiled, knowing that the road ahead, no matter how bumpy, would be filled with the sweet taste of victory and the knowledge that true success comes from overcoming the toughest challenges. 24. The figure skater felt so unforgiving of himself because . A. he fell and crashed down B. he failed the competition C. he struggled to stand on the ice D. his skate blades tripped on the ice 25. How did the athlete adjust himself back to the ice stage? A. He embraced all the tests to the journey. B. He acknowledged the failure and cheered himself up. C. He practiced more than before and endured all pains and hurts. D. He changed himself into a stronger, smarter and more powerful man. 26. Mario is a young man with the merit of . A. toughness and sentiments B. hard work and elegance C. perseverance and resilience D. generosity and humility 27. What can we learn from this story? A. Failure is the mother of success. B. Chances favor the prepared mind. C Constant dripping wears away the stone. D. What doesn’t kill you makes you stronger. C Consider these facts: The tennis champion Williams sisters are a generation apart, according to the Pew Research Center. Venus, born in 1980, is labelled “Gen X”; Serena, born in 1981, is a “millennial”. Meanwhile, Donald Trump and Michelle Obama both belong to the same generation. The former was born in 1946 while the latter was born in 1964, making them both “baby boomers”. Before you push these diverse personalities into generational stereotypes (刻板印象), let me stop you there: Just don’t. Generation labels, although widely adopted by the public, have no basis in social reality. In fact, in one recent survey, most people did not identify the correct generation for themselves, even when they were shown a list of options. This is not surprising since the labels are forced by survey researchers, journalists or marketing firms before the identities they are supposed to describe even exist. Instead of asking people which group they identify with and why, they just declare the labels and start making pronouncements about them. That’s not how social identity works. The practice of naming “generations” based on birth year goes back at least to the supposed “lost-generation” of the late 19th century. But as the tradition slid into a never-ending competition to be the first to propose the next name that sticks, it has produced gradually declining returns to social science and the public understanding. The supposed boundaries between generations are no more meaningful than the names they’ve been given. There is no research identifying the appropriate boundaries between generations, and there is no statistical basis for requiring the sweeping character traits (特征) that are believed to define them. In one article you might read that millennials are “liberal lions”, “downwardly mobile”, and “distrustful”; even though they also “get along well with their parents, respect their elders and work well with colleagues”. Ridiculous, clearly. But what’s the harm? Aren’t these labels just a bit of fun for writers? A method to attract readers and a way of communicating generational change, which no one would deny is a real phenomenon? We, in academic social science, study and teach social change, but we don’t study and teach these labels because they simply aren’t real. And in social science, reality still matters. Worse than irrelevant such baseless labels drive people toward stereotyping and thoughtless character judgment. Measuring and describing social change is essential, and it can be useful to analyze the historical period in which people were born and raised, but drawing random lines between birth years and assigning names to them doesn’t help. Today there are lots of good alternatives to label generations. We can simply describe people by the decade in which they were born and define generational groups specifically related to a particular issue-such as 2020 school kids. With the arrival of “Generation Z”, there has never been a better time to get off this train. 28. According to the passage, the author may agree that ________. A. the generation label is a harmless device writers use to reflect reality B. generation boundaries are more meaningful than generation labels C. assigning character traits to a certain generation is misguided D. journalists should find alternative ways to judge character 29 The underlined word “sticks” in Paragraph 4 probably means ________. A. is understood B. is analyzed C. is described D. is accepted 30. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage? A. Generation labels: It’s high time to retire them B. Generation labels: The ongoing debate will never end C. Generation labels: What do they say about who we are? D. Generation labels: Expand or bridge generational differences? D （新语境）Science should guide policy, but caution is needed when technologies like CRISPR have the potential to exclude rather than assist people to live their lives. CRISPR can be used to treat disease. Yet the far-reaching, more worrying promise of this technology — one about which scientists seem at once excited and cautious — lies in its ability to eliminate from the gene pool what medical science identifies as faulty or abnormal genes that cause difference in individual people. Certainly, goes the logic of CRISPR’s promise, the goal of ridding future generations of terrible diseases that cause suffering and death and exhaust resources, seems an unquestionable enterprise. This logic is consistent with wider societal views. The idea that ridding society of genetic differences that count as defect (缺陷) is an undeniable “good” continues to be pervasive. Editing out a gene-linked condition, supporters may argue, is different from editing out a person, and curing disease is a good thing. But our genetic conditions are not simply entities that can be clipped away from us and our genetic conditions form a fundamental part of who we are. Using genome manipulation tools and performing genetic selection is equal to a new form of eugenic (优生学的) thinking grounded in what the communications studies scholar James L. Chemey calls “common sense” ableism, a belief system that allows people to simultaneously deny any commitment to distasteful eugenic principles while also holding them up. Ultimately, “common sense” ableism embodies a similar goal of cleansing unacceptable human variations that the campaigns to eliminate the supposedly inferior have held in the past. People with “bad” genes shouldn’t be edited out of existence in some version of a utopian (乌托邦的) future. Evaluating the quality of life of another person is morally questionable in a society based on the concept that all people are of equal value regardless of their individual differences. Expanding diversity in all its forms, including disability, strengthens the human community ethically and biologically because it opens the public and private sphere to a variety of perspectives, experiences and ideas to live together with mutual flourishing. Genome editing is powerful in reshaping medical treatments, but it can also be harmful by editing out the kinds of people that medical science, and the society it has shaped, categorize as diseased or genetically contaminated — people who are understood as having bad genes. We should be reminded that bad genes don’t necessarily lead to bad lives, just as good genes don’t necessarily lead to good lives. If CRISPR is put to use to eliminate rather than to treat genetic difference, we as a society would essentially instrumentalize this moralistic and reductionist assumption. 31. According to the author, CRISPR is________. A. a necessary evil in treating severe diseases B. a questionable tool for removing faulty genes C. a promising technology to conserve resources D. a logical approach to improving human genetics 32. The author discusses “common sense” ableism in Paragraph 4 to________. A. compare genetic selection to eugenic thinking B. trace the evolution of genetic selection in history C. offer an example of campaigns to remove bad genes D. reveal the root of the societal view on genetic differences 33. What does the underlined part in the last sentence mean? A. People need to adopt more simplified solutions. B. The society should apply CRISPR into other fields. C. This belief might be widely practiced in the society. D. The technology will be used to create a utopian future. 34. Which would be the best title for this passage? A. The Dark Side of CRISPR B. In the Wake of Genetic Selection C In Defense of Our Bad Genes D.

We fill our hours with tasks, yet wonder why we so frequently feel exhausted, distracted, or unsatisfied. What if the key to a more fulfilling life isn’t about doing more, but about doing differently? ___35___ Activities actually can be divided into different categories. Understanding what each category truly is helps make better choices. Pleasing activities are low-effort, high-reward. You don’t need to plan them far in advance or clear out a full afternoon. It might be a walk in nature, listening to your favorite playlist, or calling a friend just to say hello. ___36___ One of the biggest misconceptions about fun is that it has to be some grand event. In truth, the most restorative moments often come from these smaller, everyday pleasures. Living activities are the activities that stretch you. They might feel challenging at first, but they match with your values and leave you with a real sense of meaning. ___37___ These types of experiences take more effort than Pleasing activities, but they often help us feel more alive. Yielding activities are activities that require little effort but offer little satisfaction. ___38___ Or visualize the repeated check of your inbox without urgency. These activities can be harmless ways to relax. But when overused, they quietly replace more meaningful experiences. Once you’ve reflected on how you currently spend your time, try making one small shift each day. Choose a Pleasing or Living activity you would like to engage in more, even something simple like a short walk or trying something new that is consistent with your values. ___39___ A. Try to change how you handle these activities. B. Think of the mindless scanning through social media. C. This begins by recognizing that not all activities affect us equally. D. These are simple joys that don’t require much but offer a genuine reward. E. This could be doing the things that leave you exhausted. F. The goal is to replace distracted moments with engaged ones. G. It could be learning a new skill that pushes you out of your comfort zone. 第三部分 书面表达（共两节，32分） 第一节（共4小题；第40、41题各2分，第42题3分，第43题5分，共12分） 阅读下面短文，根据题目要求用英文回答问题。请在答题卡指定区域作答。 （新题材）My path was long to recognizing my vocation (职业) , much longer than it had to be. My parents were professors of engineering. Science was the horizon of possibility in my family; nothing else counted or even existed. No matter how much I loved to read and write, it never occurred to me to major in anything else. I had been curious about biology and psychology in high school, so when I knew Columbia offered a joint major in the two fields, I chose it on the spot. The feeling, other than excitement, was one of relief. I couldn’t bear the uncertainty that college represented. Instead of opening options up, I needed to shut them down. I had locked up three-quarters of my courses for the next four years, and I hadn’t even gone to a single class. There was no one there to stop me. I would mope (消沉) in the back of those lectures, reading a novel behind my notebook, unaware of the fact that I was trying to tell myself something. I don’t know exactly when things went wrong with my chosen course of study. By the time I realized that I should have been an English major, it was too late to make the switch. I ended up working in a tiny nonprofit that meant nothing to me, with no idea where I should go next. And then I happened to be visiting a friend in architecture school. She wasn’t happy, either; her program was way too pretentious and theoretical. We were walking along and she said, “I have to get out of graduate school. ” And I immediately thought “I have to go to graduate school. ” Meaning, I’ll never be happy until I give myself the chance to study English literature after all. Meaning, it’s not too late - I’m not going to let it be too late. Everything was suddenly clear and calm. It wasn’t easy getting in at that point. But for the first time in a long while, I performed at the top of my ability. I’d study for eighty hours a week and I had never been happier. 40. What family factor (s) influenced the author’s choice of major? ___________________________________________________ 41. What did the author realize at college? ___________________________________________________ 42. Please decide which part is false in the following statement, then underline it and explain why. The author was determined to get into graduate school because his friend persuaded him to do so. ___________________________________________________ 43. What have you learned from the author’s experience of choosing a major in college?

With the arrival of"Generation Z",there has never been a better time to get off this train 28.According to the passage,the author may agree that A.the generation label is a harmless device writers use to reflect reality B.generation boundaries are more meaningful than generation labels C.assigning character traits to a certain generation is misguided D.journalists should find alternative ways to judge character 29 The underlined word"sticks"in Paragraph 4 probably means A.is understood B.is analyzed C.is described D.is accepted 30.Which of the following would be the best title for the passage? A.Generation labels:It's high time to retire them B.Generation labels:The ongoing debate will never end C.Generation labels:What do they say about who we are? D.Generation labels:Expand or bridge generational differences? D (Science should guide policy,but caution is needed when technologies like CRISPR have the potential to exclude rather than assist people to live their lives. CRISPR can be used to treat disease.Yet the far-reaching,more worrying promise of this technology-one about which scientists seem at once excited and cautious-lies in its ability to eliminate from the gene pool what medical science identifies as faulty or abnormal genes that cause difference in individual people.Certainly,goes the logic of CRISPR's promise,the goal of ridding future generations of terrible diseases that cause suffering and death and exhaust resources,seems an unquestionable enterprise This logic is consistent with wider societal views.The idea that ridding society of genetic differences that count as defect (is an undeniable"good'continues to be pervasive.Editing out a gene-linked condition,supporters 试题第6页（共10页） 学科网·学易金卷瓶吸7品 may argue,is different from editing out a person,and curing disease is a good thing.But our genetic conditions are not simply entities that can be clipped away from us and our genetic conditions form a fundamental part of who we are. Using genome manipulation tools and performing genetic selection is equal to a new form of eugenic ( thinking grounded in what the communications studies scholar James L.Chemey calls "common sense"ableism,a belief system that allows people to simultaneously deny any commitment to distasteful eugenic principles while also holding them up.Ultimately,"common sense"ableism embodies a similar goal of cleansing unacceptable human variations that the campaigns to eliminate the supposedly inferior have held in the past. People with“bad'genes shouldn't be edited out of existence in some version of a utopian(鸟托邦的)future. Evaluating the quality of life of another person is morally questionable in a society based on the concept that all people are of equal value regardless of their individual differences Expanding diversity in all its forms,including disability,strengthens the human community ethically and biologically because it opens the public and private sphere to a variety of perspectives,experiences and ideas to live together with mutual flourishing. Genome editing is powerful in reshaping medical treatments,but it can also be harmful by editing out the kinds of people that medical science,and the society it has shaped,categorize as diseased or genetically contaminated- people who are understood as having bad genes.We should be reminded that bad genes don't necessarily lead to bad lives,just as good genes don't necessarily lead to good lives.If CRISPR is put to use to eliminate rather than to treat genetic difference,we as a society would essentially instrumentalize this moralistic and reductionist assumption. 31.According to the author,CRISPR is_ A.a necessary evil in treating severe diseases B.a questionable tool for removing faulty genes C.a promising technology to conserve resources D.a logical approach to improving human genetics 32.The author discusses"common sense"ableism in Paragraph 4 to A.compare genetic selection to eugenic thinking B.trace the evolution of genetic selection in history C.offer an example of campaigns to remove bad genes D.reveal the root of the societal view on genetic differences 33.What does the underlined part in the last sentence mean? A.People need to adopt more simplified solutions.B.The society should apply CRISPR into other fields. C.This belief might be widely practiced in the society.D.The technology will be used to create a utopian future. 34.Which would be the best title for this passage? A.The Dark Side of CRISPR B.In the Wake of Genetic Selection 试题第7页（共10页） C In Defense of Our Bad Genes D.The Promise and Price of Gene Editing .: O 第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，共10分） : 根据短文内容，从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。选项 : 中有两项为多余选项。 In our constant pursuit of productivity and achievement,we often overlook the quality of our daily experiences. ☑ We fill our hours with tasks,yet wonder why we so frequently feel exhausted,distracted,or unsatisfied.What if the : key to a more fulfilling life isn't about doing more,but about doing differently? 35 Activities actually can be divided into different categories.Understanding what each category truly is helps make better choices.

It was during one such moment that Mario, a once-promising star, stumbled and fell, his dream crashing down with the thud (砰的一声) of the skate blades on the ice. The initial shock was followed by a deep sense of despair. Doubts crept in, whispering that he might never rise again. Each day seemed darker than the last, as Mario struggled to find his footing in a world that suddenly felt so alien and unforgiving of himself. But within this darkness, Mario began to forgive himself and accept the reality. He remembered the countless hours of training, the sacrifices made, and the love for the sport that had burned so brightly before.

And so, Mario smiled, knowing that the road ahead, no matter how bumpy, would be filled with the sweet taste of victory and the knowledge that true success comes from overcoming the toughest challenges.(就在那一刻，他明白了失败并非终点，而是一个新的开始——这是一个让自己变得更强大、更睿智、更有决心的机会。于是，马里奥微笑着，他知道前方的道路，无论多么崎岖，都将充满胜利的甜蜜滋味，并且他会明白真正的成功来自于战胜最艰难的挑战)”以及文章讲述了一位花滑运动员经历赛场失利后，心里上一度绝望并对自己产生怀疑，但经过自我调整，最终重获辉煌的故事。可知，故事告诉我们“那些杀不死你的东西只会让你变得更强大”。故选D。 C Consider these facts: The tennis champion Williams sisters are a generation apart, according to the Pew Research Center. Venus, born in 1980, is labelled “Gen X”; Serena, born in 1981, is a “millennial”. Meanwhile, Donald Trump and Michelle Obama both belong to the same generation. The former was born in 1946 while the latter was born in 1964, making them both “baby boomers”. Before you push these diverse personalities into generational stereotypes (刻板印象), let me stop you there: Just don’t. Generation labels, although widely adopted by the public, have no basis in social reality. In fact, in one recent survey, most people did not identify the correct generation for themselves, even when they were shown a list of options. This is not surprising since the labels are forced by survey researchers, journalists or marketing firms before the identities they are supposed to describe even exist. Instead of asking people which group they identify with and why, they just declare the labels and start making pronouncements about them. That’s not how social identity works. The practice of naming “generations” based on birth year goes back at least to the supposed “lost-generation” of the late 19th century. But as the tradition slid into a never-ending competition to be the first to propose the next name that sticks, it has produced gradually declining returns to social science and the public understanding. The supposed boundaries between generations are no more meaningful than the names they’ve been given. There is no research identifying the appropriate boundaries between generations, and there is no statistical basis for requiring the sweeping character traits (特征) that are believed to define them. In one article you might read that millennials are “liberal lions”, “downwardly mobile”, and “distrustful”; even though they also “get along well with their parents, respect their elders and work well with colleagues”. Ridiculous, clearly. But what’s the harm? Aren’t these labels just a bit of fun for writers? A method to attract readers and a way of communicating generational change, which no one would deny is a real phenomenon? We, in academic social science, study and teach social change, but we don’t study and teach these labels because they simply aren’t real. And in social science, reality still matters. Worse than irrelevant such baseless labels drive people toward stereotyping and thoughtless character judgment. Measuring and describing social change is essential, and it can be useful to analyze the historical period in which people were born and raised, but drawing random lines between birth years and assigning names to them doesn’t help. Today there are lots of good alternatives to label generations. We can simply describe people by the decade in which they were born and define generational groups specifically related to a particular issue-such as 2020 school kids. With the arrival of “Generation Z”, there has never been a better time to get off this train. 28. According to the passage, the author may agree that ________. A. the generation label is a harmless device writers use to reflect reality B. generation boundaries are more meaningful than generation labels C. assigning character traits to a certain generation is misguided D. journalists should find alternative ways to judge character 29 The underlined word “sticks” in Paragraph 4 probably means ________. A. is understood B. is analyzed C. is described D. is accepted 30. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage? A. Generation labels: It’s high time to retire them B. Generation labels: The ongoing debate will never end C. Generation labels: What do they say about who we are? D. Generation labels: Expand or bridge generational differences? 【答案】28. C 29. D 30. A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。主要介绍了代际标签的制定，说明代际标签具有不可靠性，给一代人贴标签，有很多好的替代选择。 28. 推理判断题。根据第二段“Before you push these diverse personalities into generational stereotypes (刻板印象), let me stop you there: Just don’t.(在你将这些不同的性格推入代际刻板印象之前，让我在这里阻止你：不要这样做)”以及第六段“We, in academic social science, study and teach social change, but we don’t study and teach these labels because they simply aren’t real. And in social science, reality still matters.(在学术社会科学中，我们研究和教授社会变革，但我们不研究和教授这些标签，因为它们根本不是真实的。在社会科学中，现实仍然很重要)”可知，作者不同意将不同的性格推入代际刻板印象，认为代际标签是不真实的，因此作者可能同意“将性格特征分配给某一代人是错误的”这一观点。故选C项。 29. 词句猜测题。根据第四段“But as the tradition slid into a never-ending competition to be the first to propose the next name(但是，随着这一传统滑向一场无休止的要成为第一个提出下一个名字的竞争)”以及“it has produced gradually declining returns to social science and the public understanding.(社会科学和公众理解的回报率逐渐下降)”可知，句中the next name指的是为下一代取的名字，即可以被接受的一个名字，推测划线单词表示“接受”，与is accepted同义。故选D项。 30. 主旨大意题。根据第一段“Consider these facts: The tennis champion Williams sisters are a generation apart, according to the Pew Research Center. Venus, born in 1980, is labelled “Gen X”; Serena, born in 1981, is a “millennial”. Meanwhile, Donald Trump and Michelle Obama both belong to the same generation. The former was born in 1946 while the latter was born in 1964, making them both “baby boomers”.(我们来看几组事实：据皮尤研究中心统计，网球冠军威廉姆斯姐妹竟分属两代人。1980年出生的大威被归为“X一代”，1981年出生的小威则是“千禧一代”。而唐纳德・特朗普与米歇尔・奥巴马反倒同属一代人，前者生于1946年，后者生于1964年，二人都是“婴儿潮一代”)”以及文章主要说明了代际标签的制定以及一些代际标签制定的发展，说明了代际标签具有不可靠性，给一代人贴标签，有很多好的替代选择，A选项“时代标签：是时候让它们退役了”可以作为文章标题。故选A项。 D （新语境）Science should guide policy, but caution is needed when technologies like CRISPR have the potential to exclude rather than assist people to live their lives. CRISPR can be used to treat disease. Yet the far-reaching, more worrying promise of this technology — one about which scientists seem at once excited and cautious — lies in its ability to eliminate from the gene pool what medical science identifies as faulty or abnormal genes that cause difference in individual people. Certainly, goes the logic of CRISPR’s promise, the goal of ridding future generations of terrible diseases that cause suffering and death and exhaust resources, seems an unquestionable enterprise. This logic is consistent with wider societal views. The idea that ridding society of genetic differences that count as defect (缺陷) is an undeniable “good” continues to be pervasive. Editing out a gene-linked condition, supporters may argue, is different from editing out a person, and curing disease is a good thing. But our genetic conditions are not simply entities that can be clipped away from us and our genetic conditions form a fundamental part of who we are. Using genome manipulation tools and performing genetic selection is equal to a new form of eugenic (优生学的) thinking grounded in what the communications studies scholar James L. Chemey calls “common sense” ableism, a belief system that allows people to simultaneously deny any commitment to distasteful eugenic principles while also holding them up. Ultimately, “common sense” ableism embodies a similar goal of cleansing unacceptable human variations that the campaigns to eliminate the supposedly inferior have held in the past. People with “bad” genes shouldn’t be edited out of existence in some version of a utopian (乌托邦的) future. Evaluating the quality of life of another person is morally questionable in a society based on the concept that all people are of equal value regardless of their individual differences. Expanding diversity in all its forms, including disability, strengthens the human community ethically and biologically because it opens the public and private sphere to a variety of perspectives, experiences and ideas to live together with mutual flourishing. Genome editing is powerful in reshaping medical treatments, but it can also be harmful by editing out the kinds of people that medical science, and the society it has shaped, categorize as diseased or genetically contaminated — people who are understood as having bad genes. We should be reminded that bad genes don’t necessarily lead to bad lives, just as good genes don’t necessarily lead to good lives. If CRISPR is put to use to eliminate rather than to treat genetic difference, we as a society would essentially instrumentalize this moralistic and reductionist assumption. 31. According to the author, CRISPR is________. A. a necessary evil in treating severe diseases B. a questionable tool for removing faulty genes C. a promising technology to conserve resources D. a logical approach to improving human genetics 32. The author discusses “common sense” ableism in Paragraph 4 to________. A. compare genetic selection to eugenic thinking B. trace the evolution of genetic selection in history C. offer an example of campaigns to remove bad genes D. reveal the root of the societal view on genetic differences 33. What does the underlined part in the last sentence mean? A. People need to adopt more simplified solutions. B. The society should apply CRISPR into other fields. C. This belief might be widely practiced in the society. D. The technology will be used to create a utopian future. 34. Which would be the best title for this passage? A. The Dark Side of CRISPR B. In the Wake of Genetic Selection C In Defense of Our Bad Genes D. The Promise and Price of Gene Editing 【答案】31. B 32. D 33. C 34. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章主要探讨了CRISPR基因编辑技术在治疗疾病的同时可能带来的社会伦理问题，特别是该技术可能导致排除遗传差异，从而影响社会多样性。 31. 细节理解题。由文章第二段中“CRISPR can be used to treat disease. Yet the far-reaching, more worrying promise of this technology — one about which scientists seem at once excited and cautious— lies in its ability to eliminate from the gene pool what medical science identifies as faulty or abnormal genes that cause difference in individual people. (CRISPR可以用于治疗疾病。然而，这项技术的深远、更令人担忧的前景——科学家们似乎既兴奋又谨慎——在于它有能力从基因库中消除医学认定的导致个体差异的缺陷或异常基因)”可知，作者认为CRISPR技术虽然有治疗疾病的能力，但也有删除基因池中有缺陷或异常基因的风险，这种做法是值得质疑的。故选B。 32. 推理判断题。由文章第四段“Using genome manipulation tools and performing genetic selection is equal to a new form of eugenic (优生学的) thinking grounded in what the communications studies scholar James L. Chemey calls “common sense” ableism, a belief system that allows people to simultaneously deny any commitment to distasteful eugenic principles while also holding them up. Ultimately, “common sense” ableism embodies a similar goal of cleansing unacceptable human variations that the campaigns to eliminate the supposedly inferior have held in the past. (使用基因组操作工具和进行基因选择等同于一种新的优生思维形式，其基础是传播研究学者James L. Chemey所说的“常识”残疾歧视，这是一种信仰体系，它允许人们在否认任何令人厌恶的优生原则的同时，也支持它们。最终，“常识性”残疾歧视体现了一个类似的目标，即清除不可接受的人类变异，这与过去消除所谓的劣等运动的目标类似)”可知，作者讨论“常识”残疾主义是为了揭示社会遗传差异观的根源。故选D。 33. 词句猜测题。由文章最后一段中“If CRISPR is put to use to eliminate rather than to treat genetic difference, we as a society would essentially instrumentalize this moralistic and reductionist assumption. (如果CRISPR被用于消除而不是治疗基因差异，我们作为一个社会，本质上是将这种道德主义和简化主义的假设工具化。)”可知，将这种道德主义和简化主义的假设工具化，暗示这种做法可能在社会上广泛实践。故选C。 34. 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是由文章第一段“Science should guide policy, but caution is needed when technologies like CRISPR have the potential to exclude rather than assist people to live their lives. (科学应该指导政策，但是当像CRISPR这样的技术有可能排斥而不是帮助人们过自己的生活时，就需要谨慎)”和最后一段中“Genome editing is powerful in reshaping medical treatments, but it can also be harmful by editing out the kinds of people that medical science, and the society it has shaped, categorize as diseased or genetically contaminated — people who are understood as having bad genes. We should be reminded that bad genes don’t necessarily lead to bad lives, just as good genes don’t necessarily lead to good lives. (基因组编辑在重塑医学治疗方面是强大的，但它也可能是有害的，因为它把医学及其塑造的社会归类为患病或基因污染的人——那些被认为有坏基因的人——剔除了。我们应该记住，坏的基因并不一定导致坏的生活，正如好的基因并不一定导致好的生活一样)”可知，本文主要讨论了CRISPR基因编辑技术在治疗疾病的同时可能带来的社会伦理问题，特别是该技术可能导致排除遗传差异，从而影响社会多样性。因此，选项A“The Dark Side of CRISPR(CRISPR的阴暗面)”最适合作为本文标题。故选A。 第二节 （共5小题；每小题2分，共10分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。 In our constant pursuit of productivity and achievement, we often overlook the quality of our daily experiences.

What if the key to a more fulfilling life isn’t about doing more, but about doing differently? ___35___ Activities actually can be divided into different categories. Understanding what each category truly is helps make better choices. Pleasing activities are low-effort, high-reward. You don’t need to plan them far in advance or clear out a full afternoon. It might be a walk in nature, listening to your favorite playlist, or calling a friend just to say hello. ___36___ One of the biggest misconceptions about fun is that it has to be some grand event. In truth, the most restorative moments often come from these smaller, everyday pleasures. Living activities are the activities that stretch you. They might feel challenging at first, but they match with your values and leave you with a real sense of meaning. ___37___ These types of experiences take more effort than Pleasing activities, but they often help us feel more alive. Yielding activities are activities that require little effort but offer little satisfaction. ___38___ Or visualize the repeated check of your inbox without urgency. These activities can be harmless ways to relax. But when overused, they quietly replace more meaningful experiences. Once you’ve reflected on how you currently spend your time, try making one small shift each day. Choose a Pleasing or Living activity you would like to engage in more, even something simple like a short walk or trying something new that is consistent with your values. ___39___ A. Try to change how you handle these activities. B. Think of the mindless scanning through social media. C. This begins by recognizing that not all activities affect us equally. D. These are simple joys that don’t require much but offer a genuine reward. E. This could be doing the things that leave you exhausted. F. The goal is to replace distracted moments with engaged ones. G. It could be learning a new skill that pushes you out of your comfort zone. 【答案】35. C 36. D 37. G 38. B 39. F 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍不同类型的日常活动及其特点，指出调整活动选择能让生活更充实，而非单纯追求多做事。 35. 根据空前“What if the key to a more fulfilling life isn’t about doing more, but about doing differently? (如果更充实生活的关键不在于做更多事，而在于换种方式做事呢？)”以及空后“Activities actually can be divided into different categories. Understanding what each category truly is helps make better choices. (实际上，活动可以分为不同的类别。了解每个类别的真正含义有助于做出更好的选择。)”可知，此空应起到承上启下的作用，引出“活动有不同分类”的观点，C选项“This begins by recognizing that not all activities affect us equally. (这始于要意识到并非所有活动对我们的影响都是相同的。)”中的this指代前文提到的“换种方式做事让生活更充实”，且引出后文的活动分类，符合语境。故选C项。 36. 根据空前“Pleasing activities are low-effort, high-reward. You don’t need to plan them far in advance or clear out a full afternoon. It might be a walk in nature, listening to your favorite playlist, or calling a friend just to say hello. (愉悦类活动是低投入、高回报的。你不需要提前很久计划，也不需要腾出一整个下午的时间。它可能是在大自然中散步，听你最喜欢的播放列表，或者打电话给朋友只是问候一声。)”以及空后“One of the biggest misconceptions about fun is that it has to be some grand event. In truth, the most restorative moments often come from these smaller, everyday pleasures. (关于乐趣最大的误解之一是它必须是某种盛大的活动。事实上，最能让人恢复精力的时刻往往来自这些微小的日常乐趣。)”可知，此空应是对愉悦类活动特点的进一步总结，D选项“These are simple joys that don’t require much but offer a genuine reward.

My parents were professors of engineering. Science was the horizon of possibility in my family; nothing else counted or even existed. No matter how much I loved to read and write, it never occurred to me to major in anything else. I had been curious about biology and psychology in high school, so when I knew Columbia offered a joint major in the two fields, I chose it on the spot. The feeling, other than excitement, was one of relief. I couldn’t bear the uncertainty that college represented. Instead of opening options up, I needed to shut them down. I had locked up three-quarters of my courses for the next four years, and I hadn’t even gone to a single class. There was no one there to stop me. I would mope (消沉) in the back of those lectures, reading a novel behind my notebook, unaware of the fact that I was trying to tell myself something. I don’t know exactly when things went wrong with my chosen course of study. By the time I realized that I should have been an English major, it was too late to make the switch. I ended up working in a tiny nonprofit that meant nothing to me, with no idea where I should go next. And then I happened to be visiting a friend in architecture school. She wasn’t happy, either; her program was way too pretentious and theoretical. We were walking along and she said, “I have to get out of graduate school. ” And I immediately thought “I have to go to graduate school. ” Meaning, I’ll never be happy until I give myself the chance to study English literature after all. Meaning, it’s not too late - I’m not going to let it be too late. Everything was suddenly clear and calm. It wasn’t easy getting in at that point. But for the first time in a long while, I performed at the top of my ability. I’d study for eighty hours a week and I had never been happier. 40. What family factor (s) influenced the author’s choice of major? ___________________________________________________ 41. What did the author realize at college? ___________________________________________________ 42. Please decide which part is false in the following statement, then underline it and explain why. The author was determined to get into graduate school because his friend persuaded him to do so. ___________________________________________________ 43. What have you learned from the author’s experience of choosing a major in college? (In about 40 words) ___________________________________________________ 【答案】40. The professions of the author’s parents. 41. The author realized that he should have been an English major. 42. The author was determined to get into graduate school because his friend persuaded him to do so. The author was determined to get into graduate school because he wanted to give himself the chance to study English literature. 43. From the author's experience, I learned that choosing a major should be based on one's true interests and passions rather than external expectations or family influence. Following one's heart leads to true happiness and fulfillment. 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。作者讲述了自己在选择职业道路上的曲折经历。尽管对阅读和写作充满热爱，但由于家庭环境的影响，作者最初选择了科学领域的专业。然而，在大学期间，作者逐渐意识到自己真正的兴趣在于英语文学，但为时已晚，无法转专业。毕业后，作者从事了一份没有意义的工作，感到迷茫。一次偶然的机会，作者受到朋友启发，决定继续深造学习英语文学，并最终找到了自己的方向和快乐。 40. 考查细节理解。根据文章第一段“My parents were professors of engineering. Science was the horizon of possibility in my family; nothing else counted or even existed. (我的父母是工程学教授。科学是我家庭可能性的地平线；其他一切都无关紧要甚至不存在。)”可知，作者父母的职业影响了作者选择专业，故答案为The professions of the author’s parents. 41. 考查细节理解。根据文章第三段“By the time I realized that I should have been an English major, it was too late to make the switch. (当我意识到我应该是英语专业的时候，已经太晚了，无法换专业了。)”可知，作者在大学时意识到他应该是英语专业，故答案为The author realized that he should have been an English major. 42. 考查细节理解。根据文章第四段“And I immediately thought “I have to go to graduate school.” Meaning, I’ll never be happy until I give myself the chance to study English literature after all. Meaning, it’s not too late - I’m not going to let it be too late. (我立刻想到“我必须去读研究生。”这意味着，直到我给自己机会学习英国文学，我才会快乐。这意味着，还不算太晚——我不会让它太晚。）”可知，作者决定去读研究生是因为他想给自己机会学习英国文学，而不是因为朋友劝说，所以表达“because his friend persuaded him to do so (因为他的朋友劝说他这样做)”是错误的，应更正为“because he wanted to give himself the chance to study English literature”故答案为The author was determined to get into graduate school because his friend persuaded him to do so. The author was determined to get into graduate school because he wanted to give himself the chance to study English literature. 43. 考查推理判断。根据文章第一段“My path was long to recognizing my vocation (职业) , much longer than it had to be. My parents were professors of engineering. Science was the horizon of possibility in my family; nothing else counted or even existed. No matter how much I loved to read and write, it never occurred to me to major in anything else. (我花了很长时间才找到自己的职业方向，其实本不必如此。我的父母都是工科教授，在我们家科学是唯一可能的前景；其他都不重要，甚至不存在。无论我多么喜欢阅读和写作，我从未想过要主修其他专业。)”和第三段“There was no one there to stop me. I would mope (消沉) in the back of those lectures, reading a novel behind my notebook, unaware of the fact that I was trying to tell myself something. I don’t know exactly when things went wrong with my chosen course of study. By the time I realized that I should have been an English major, it was too late to make the switch. I ended up working in a tiny nonprofit that meant nothing to me, with no idea where I should go next. (没有人阻止我。那些讲座上，我会坐在后面消沉地读小说，笔记本挡在前面，却没意识到我是在试图告诉自己些什么。我不知道我的课程选择到底是什么时候出了问题。直到我意识到自己应该主修英语时，已经太晚了，无法转专业了。最终我在一家对我毫无意义的小非营利组织工作，完全不知道下一步该去哪里。)”内容可知，作者选择专业时受到家庭影响而选择了科学专业，后来意识到自己应该是英语专业但已经太晚无法换专业，所以从作者的经历中我们可以学到选择专业应该基于自己的真正兴趣和激情而不是外部期望或家庭影响，跟随自己的心会带来真正的幸福和满足感，故答案为From the author's experience, I learned that choosing a major should be based on one's true interests and passions rather than external expectations or family influence. Following one's heart leads to true happiness and fulfillment. 第二节（20分） 假定你是红星中学高三学生李华，英国外教Chris准备将学生随机分为两人一组课后练习口语，你班同学认为这样分组存在问题。请你给外教写一封邮件，内容包括： 1. 说明问题； 2. 提出建议。 注意： 1. 词数100左右； 2. 开头和结尾已给出，不计入总词数。 Dear Chris, ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Yours, Li Hua 【答案】One possible version: Dear Chris, I’m Li Hua. I’m writing to talk about the after-class oral English practice grouping. We think the random grouping of two students has some problems. Some students have different English levels, which may lead to situations where one dominates the conversation and the other has few chances to speak. Also, some students may not be familiar with their partners, feeling a bit shy and not being able to practice effectively. We suggest grouping us according to our English levels so that we can better match each other. And it would be greater if you could let us choose our partners within a certain range of levels. I sincerely hope you can consider our suggestions. Thank you!
