So when I received an email from a friend about a race benefiting cancer research, I ignored it. It seemed to prick my heart, as cancer was the disease that had taken my mother away from me. But something about my friend’s words—“I can help organize the whole thing”—stuck with me. I felt obliged（有义务的）to agree. In the weeks to come, I managed to re-enter the world of the living. I checked our team’s website daily, feeling proud each time a donation ticked up our total. I knew my mom would have wanted it that way. She was the type who never got defeated. It was this very spirit that helped me get by. When the race ended, I noticed the runners all had one thing in common: There were big smiles on their faces. They made it look so rewarding and effortless. I wanted in. So I enrolled in another race two months later. Considering I could barely run a mile, it was ambitious. But my friend and I made a training plan so I wouldn’t come in last. I followed it religiously and didn’t let anything get in my way. Running up and down the city’s hills, I was flooded with memories. I had lived there after college and my mother had visited often. I passed Bloomingdale’s, recalling the time she and I had gotten into a screaming argument there. I was about to beat myself up when I remembered what Mom had said after her diagnosis of cancer. “I don’t want you to feel guilty about anything.” Her paper-thin hands had held me tightly. A weight lifted from my shoulders. When the race day arrived, I gave it my all for my mom and for all she had taught me and continued to teach me. As I ran, whenever I felt like slowing down, I pictured her cheering me on. Crossing the finish line, I was filled with her love and a sense of peace. 34. Why did the author ignore the email in the beginning? A. She felt it hard to finish the race. B. She had no time to join in the event. C. She thought the research meaningless. D. She was reminded of her mother’s death. 35. What mainly helped the author recover from her mom’s death? A. The company of her friends. B. The inspiration from her mom. C. The pleasure in going for a run. D. The success in organizing an event. 36. Which of the words can best describe the author’s mom? A. Considerate and polite. B. Brave and humorous. C. Strong-willed and caring. D. Outgoing and patient. 37. What might be the best title for the passage? A. How I Got Healed in Running B. The Loss of Sweet Memories C. What Matters Most in Running D. The Rewards of Great Friendship C The start-up that attracted the largest investment in the history of cybersecurity, of more than half a billion dollars, has a simple goal: a passwordless future. Despite the spread of password management software that can generate and remember complicated strings of random characters, some of the most common passwords are still “12345”, “password” and “iloveyou”. As a result, more than 80 percent of hacks involve these kinds of passwords; and passwords remain the most sought-after data by hackers, above other personal or sensitive information. In many cases, individuals are tricked into handing over password details by phishing emails and other social engineering techniques. Hackers have sought to break into apps and steal entire password databases as well. Passwords are also under attack from new technology, such as automated programs that can rapidly try to guess them, or can try stolen passwords on multiple online accounts. Since the need to replace the easily forgotten and highly hackable strings of letters and numbers that we use to access everyday life has become even more urgent, the race to replace the password is under way, with biometric-based (基于生物识别的) security emerging as one of the most sought-after solutions. According to Tieo, a union of more than 250 companies, which promotes a standard system of passwordless authentication (身份验证), the vast majority of consumer services will offer passwordless login systems in the next couple of years. “If done correctly and safely, biometrics are really helping us move to a passwordless future in a rapid manner,” said Andrew Jenkinson, CEO of Tieo. But there are still risks associated with the use of biometric authentication. Unlike passwords, biometrics cannot be changed. This means such data must be closely guarded for privacy purposes and to prevent spoofing—hackers trying to trick cameras or sensors with photos, or masks of their victim. “Biometric authentication and passwordless authentication has its own attack surface,” said Paul Smith, director of security research at CyberPek. His team revealed that it had found a design problem which would allow potential attackers to bypass facial recognition login by injecting a spoofed photo of a user’s face into the process. The biggest obstacle standing in the way of the start-ups hoping to kill the password is how to change years of habit. Eric Brown, founder of TAK Cyber, a cyber research and advisory company, argued that while sensitive applications may rapidly shift from passwords, other websites have less motivation to update their systems. “You’ll never get rid of them,” he said. “We’re never going to get to the post-password era.” 38. What is the third paragraph mainly about? A. Why passwords are the most sought-after data. B. How passwords are stolen by phishing emails. C. How passwords have caused us trouble. D. Why passwords are difficult to secure. 39. What can we infer from the passage? A. Facial recognition login is the key to fighting hackers. B. Biometric authentication has its own set of problems. C. TAK Cyber’s login system guarantees the safety of data. D. Spoofing brings more problems than automated programs. 40 What is Eric Brown’s attitude towards a passwordless future? A. Indifferent. B. Passionate. C. Pessimistic. D. Objective. 41. Which would be the best title for the passage? A. Biometric authentication: password security solution! B. Start-ups race to welcome a passwordless future C. The argument to end passwords has begun D. Killing the password: a cure or a fantasy? D There is something to be said for being a generalist, even if you are a specialist. Knowing a little about a lot of things that interest you can add to the richness of a whole, well-lived life. Society pushes us to specialize, to become experts. This requires commitment to a particular occupation, branch of study or research. The drawback to being specialists is we often come to know more and more about less and less. There is a great deal of pressure to master one’s field. You may pursue training, degrees, or increasing levels of responsibility at work. Then you discover the pressure of having to keep up. Some people seem willing to work around the clock in their narrow specialty. But such commitment can also weaken a sense of freedom. These specialists could work at the office until ten each night, then look back and realize they would have loved to have gone home and enjoyed the sweetness of their family and friends, or traveled to exciting places, meeting interesting people. Mastering one thing to the exclusion (排除)of others can hold back your true spirit. Generalists, on the other hand, know a lot about a wide range of subjects and view the whole with all its connections. They are people of ability, talent, and enthusiasm who can bring their broad perspective into specific fields of expertise (专长).The doctor who is also a poet and philosopher is a superior doctor, one who can give so much more to his patients than just good medical skills. Things are connected. Let your expertise in one field fuel your passions in all related areas. Some of your interests may not appear to be connected but, once you explore their depths, you discover that they are. My editor Toni, who is also a writer, has edited several history books. She has decided to study Chinese history. Fascinated by the structural beauty of the Forbidden City as a painter, she is equally interested to learn more about Chinese philosophy. “I don’t know where it will lead, but I’m excited I’m on this pursuit.” These expansions into new worlds help us by giving us new perspectives. We begin to see the interconnectedness of one thing to another in all aspects of our life, of ourselves and the universe. Develop broad, general knowledge and experience. The universe is all yours to explore and enjoy. 42. To become a specialist, one may have to_____. A. narrow his range of knowledge B. avoid responsibilities at work C. know more about the society D. broaden his perspective on life 43. What does the author intend to show with the example of Toni? A. Passion alone does not ensure a person’s success. B. In-depth exploration makes discoveries possible. C. Everyone has a chance to succeed in their pursuit. D. Seemingly unrelated interests are in a way connected. 44. What is this passage mainly about? A. Be More a Generalist Than a Specialist B. Specialist or Generalist: Hard to Decide C. Turn a Generalist into a Specialist D. Ways to Become a Generalist 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。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Keep Sight of Dry Eye Do your eyes feel uncomfortable or dry? If so, you might have dry eye syndrome (综合征). ____45____ It can affect the enjoyment of social activities and your ability to focus on your studies. But solutions for dry eyes do exist, so read on. In the past, dry eye syndrome was mainly a condition experienced by older adults, but it now affects many young people as well. Dry eye often results from overuse of computers or smartphones, which causes the user to blink (眨眼) less. Since blinking helps keep our eyes wet, a lack (缺少) of it can lead to dry eye. ____46____ As a result, those who spend a lot of time indoors are particularly at risk. Finally, wearing a medical mask can cause dry eye, since breathing with a mask on can force air out through the top of the mask and into our eyes. ____47____ The first step toward prevention is cleanliness. When you wash your face, clean your eyes with a mild soap. Then, cover your eyes with a warm, wet cloth. Preventing dry eye also means avoiding tiredness in the eyes, so take frequent breaks when using your computer. While you’re on a computer break, focus on blinking, making sure that you close your eyes fully on each blink. ____48____ Another way to prevent dry eye is to drink more water. For good overall health, experts advise drinking 8 to 10 glasses of water per day, which will increase tear production. If you suffer from dry eye syndrome, these steps can go a long way toward making your eyes feel better. However, if the problem doesn’t go away, then it’s time to see a doctor. ____49____ A. After all, your health is worth keeping an eye on. B. Blinking can help protect the surface of your eyes. C. This happens when you don’t produce enough tears. D. Air-conditioning and fans also contribute to dry eye. E. Limit screen time and take breaks from staring at screens. F. Treatments for dry eyes can include eye exercises and eye drops. G. All it takes is a few lifestyle changes to prevent and treat dry eye syndrome. 第三部分 书面表达（共两节，共22分） 第一节（共4小题；第50、51题各2分，第52题3分，第53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。请在答题纸指定区域作答。 I smile as soon as I am greeted by the barista (咖啡师) who knows my name and order. As I head to a table, latte in hand, I feel a lightness in my step. This is a feeling you might experience in your daily life as well. Chances are, there are people you come into contact with daily, who you may not know well but can put a smile on your face. People like this are called “consequential strangers”. They could be the neighbor you chat to or even the person you regularly make small talk with at the gym. Typically, our lives feature many consequential strangers. We may only know some of them for a short time, whereas others may become longstanding parts of our lives. Like me, counsellor Tina Chummun has found that the barista she sees regularly is an important consequential stranger to her. “I trust the feedback from the barista because she has a completely different perspective of me,” she explains. Consequential strangers can give us a space to talk about things that perhaps we don’t with other people in our lives, and to hear alternative perspectives. These interactions are emotionally beneficial as well: the consequential strangers in my life not only help me feel a stronger sense of belonging to my community but also help with loneliness. And some of these connections could potentially become supportive relationships we can turn to for help. “There are many ways that you can approach strangers and start conversations,” says Tina. “If you’re at a train station waiting for a train, you can strike up a conversation about how annoying the delay is.” You may find that this brings you into a fuller conversation, but even if you only have a fleeting exchange with someone, this is a great way to build your confidence. Of course, not every consequential stranger is going to become a good friend and that’s OK. Still, they are a valuable part of your life, able to make you smile and feel a sense of connection. And that in itself is well worth celebrating. 50. What kind of people does the term “consequential strangers” refer to? _________________________________________________________ 51. How do consequential strangers contribute to the author’s emotional well-being? _________________________________________________________ 52. Please decide which part is false in the following statement, then underline it and explain why. Having consequential strangers is well worth celebrating as they are going to become your good friends. _________________________________________________________ 53.

Here are my suggestions. For the activity form, it could be an on-site competition. Provide a specific time and a spacious venue for all participants to write calligraphy simultaneously. Regarding the activity content, you can set different themes like “Chinese proverbs” or “Poems of the Tang Dynasty”. Prepare various types of calligraphy tools for students to choose from. Also, after the competition, organize an exhibition of all the works and invite teachers to give on-the-spot comments. I hope these ideas are helpful. Looking forward to the success of the event.
