B A huge crowd has gathered to watch China's new scientific research ship enter the water for the first time.This ship,equipped with on-board labs and the latest scientific kit, will eventually explore the world's oceans. But it is also going to help China plunge be- neath the waves:it will serve as a launch-pad for submarines that can dive to the deepest parts of the ocean."Humans know much less about the deep oceans than we know about the surface of the Moon and Mars.That's why I want to develop the facility for ocean scien- tists to reach the deep seas,"says Prof.Cui Weicheng. He is the dean of deep sea science at Shanghai Ocean University but he has also set up a private company called Rainbow Fish, 81 高中英语选择性必修第四册（外研版） which built the new research ship and is busy developing submersibles.One of its unmanned subs reached a depth of 4,000 m (13,000 ft) in its most recent trial.But Rainbow Fish's ultimate goal is manned exploration and it plans to take humans to the very bottom of the ocean the Mariana Trench,in the Pacific,at a depth of nearly 11,000 m (36,000 ft).He shows me around a life-size model of the sub- marine and explains that there is room inside for a crew of three,who will be protected by a thick metal sphere."At the moment,we are in the design stage,so we are testing several ex- tremely high-strength materials for it."It will have to bear immense pressures from the crushing weight of water above.If there are any weaknesses,the submarine will implode. The deepest ocean is a place few people have ever experienced first-hand.The first dive to the Mariana Trench was carried out in 1960 by US Navy Lieutenant Don Walsh and Swiss engineer Jacques Picard.Their vessel,the Bathyscaphe Trieste,creaked and groaned as it made the descent,taking nearly five hours. The only other manned expedition was carried out by Hollywood director James Cam- eron,who took a solo plunge in a bright green submarine in 2012.Rainbow Fish wants its sub to be next.The team insists its venture isn't about politics and that it is looking to collabo- rate with American,Russian and European sci- entists.It is,though,a commercial operation. The company plans to charge people to use its 82 research ship and submarines,and is targeting three groups,says managing director Dr.Wu Xin."The first is definitely the scientists who are interested in studying deep-sea science and technology.The second group is offshore companies and oil companies.The last one is tourists and adventurers who]want to go down themselves to have a look at what's go- ing on there,"he says.This kind of entrepren- eurial approach may be a new model for sci- ence in China.Deep-sea research is a difficult, high-risk activity-and much of the ocean re- mains unexplored.But Cui,who hopes to be the first Chinese person to reach the Mariana Trench,believes that China could be the na- tion to truly open up this final frontier. 24.What function does the new scientific re- search ship serve? A.As a deep-sea facility for tourist adven- tures. B.As a supply ship for scientific explo- rations. C.As a station for observing giant squid. D.As a launch-pad for submarines. 25.What is Prof.Cui Weicheng currently do- ing? A.Testing high-strength materials for buil- ding submarines. B.Designing a thick metal sphere for bea- ring space pressure. C.Charting the Mariana Trench in the western Pacific Ocean. D.Making plans for his dive to the bottom of the Mariana Trench. 26.What does "this kind of entrepreneurial approach"in the last paragraph mean? A.Prof.Cui doesn't rely on government funding.Instead he runs a for-profit business. B.Prof.Cui is bold in his submarine de- sign. C.Prof.Cui,who started the company,is a professor-turned entrepreneur. D.Prof.Cui is the first to offer his ship for tourists. 27.Which of the following might be the best title of this passage? A.Deep-sea Science and Technology B.Ocean Exploration C.Race to the Deep D.The Rising of Rainbow Fish C A recent study from the Food and Mood Centre at Deakin University in Australia has cast light on an alternative approach to man- aging mild to moderate depression.The re- search suggests that lifestyle therapy,which includes nutritional consulting and regular physical activity,can be as effective as tradi- tional psychotherapy(心理疗法)in reducing depressive symptoms. In this study,182 individuals diagnosed with non-severe depression were randomly as- signed to either lifestyle therapy or cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT).The lifestyle the- rapy group received guidance from a dietitian Final test②)o and an exercise physiologist.These profes- sionals provided evidence-based advice on im- proving nutrition,particularly through a mod- ified Mediterranean(地中海)diet,and in- cluding regular physical exercise into daily routine.Meanwhile,the CBT group was led by psychologists who taught strategies to manage negative thoughts and behaviors,and were provided with workbooks and self-help tools. Both therapies were structured to match in frequency,duration,environment,and group size,ensuring a fair comparison.The results were promising:the lifestyle therapy group re- ported a 42%reduction in depression symp- toms,whereas those who had traditional psy- chotherapy experienced a 37%reduction. Although the study's sample size was small,indicating the need for further research, it underlines the importance of lifestyle changes in medicine.The researchers point out that while lifestyle changes are the cornerstone of other areas of medicine,such as heart disease and diabetes,they have traditionally been seen as“add-on”to mental health care.The study's findings suggest that this mindset may need to shift. Importantly,the research does not say that lifestyle changes should replace profes- sional mental health care.Instead,it recom- mends a comprehensive approach where both lifestyle therapy and traditional psychotherapy are available options.This would allow indi- 83 高中英语选择性必修第四册（外研版） viduals to access the care that best suits their needs,potentially offering more effective treatment for those fighting with mild to mod- erate depression. 28.What is Paragraph 2 mainly about? A.The significance of the research. B.The consequence of the research. C.The performance of different subjects. D.The process of conducting the research 29.What does the underlined word "corner- stone"in Paragraph 4 probably mean? A.A side factor. B.An optional part. C.A fundamental element. D.A controversial method. 30.What is the suggestion of the research? A.Improve traditional psychotherapy. B.Include lifestyle changes as an option. C.Stick to the Mediterranean diet strictly. D.Replace psychotherapy with lifestyle changes. 31.In which column of a magazine might this text be found? A.Fitness routines. B.Health wellness. C.Food adventures. D.Entertainment express. 0 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 84 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 abnor- mal 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 unques- tionable enterprise. This logic is consistent with wider soci- etal 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 may argue,is different from editing out a per- son,and curing disease is a good thing.But our genetic conditions are not simply entities that can be clipped away from us and our ge- netic 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,abe- lief system that allows people to simultane- ously deny any commitment to distasteful eu- genic principles while also holding them up. Ultimately,“common sense”ableism embod-. ies a similar goal of cleansing unacceptable human variations that the campaigns to elimi- nate the supposedly inferior have held in the past. People with“bad”genes shouldn'tbe edited out of existence in some version of a utopian 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 individu- al differences. Expanding diversity in all its forms,in- cluding disability,strengthens the human com- munity ethically and biologically because it opens the public and private sphere to a vari- ety 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,catego- rize 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. 32.According to the passage,which of the following best describes the author's view on the use of CRISPR to eliminate genetic defects? A.The author fully supports the use of Final test(②)o CRISPR for the betterment of human health. B.The author is concerned about the po- tential misuse of CRISPR to exclude individuals with genetic differences. C.The author believes that CRISPR should only be used for treating severe dis- eases with clear genetic causes. D.The author argues that CRISPR tech- nology is inherently flawed and should not be used at all. 33.What can be inferred from the author's discussion about“common sense”ableism? A.The author believes that ableism is a rational approach to genetic diversity. B.The author suggests that "common sense"ableism is a subtle form of dis- crimination that is widely accepted. C.The author thinks that "common sense" ableism is a new concept introduced by James L.Chemey. D.The author argues that“common sense'” ableism is a positive development in the field of genetics. 34.The author employs the term "utopian fu- ture"to describe a society that edits out “bad”genes.What is the rhetorical effect of this term? A.It evokes a sense of idealism and progr- ess in genetic engineering. B.It highlights the potential dangers of overreaching in genetic modification. C.It suggests that such a future is impos- 85 高中英语选择性必修第四册（外研版） sible and therefore not worth discussing. D.It emphasizes the author's support for a future free of genetic diseases. 35.What is the main argument of the passage? A.CRISPR technology has the potential to cause more harm than good if not used cautiously. B.Genetic diversity should be preserved because it enriches society ethically and biologically C.The societal view that genetic defects should be eliminated is morally and ethically flawed. D.The use of CRISPR to treat diseases is a clear and unquestionable good. 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。 The storms in our lives often leave be- hind gifts if we open our eyes to see them.As the skies clear and you start to emerge from the loss,look for the silver linings.36.

The central beliefs and customs of a group are handed down from one generation to another.It is for this reason that most peo- ple regarded culture as 42 rather than in- born.People acquire a culture;they are not 43 with one.The process by which a per- son develops a 44 for regional foods,or an outlook on the world over time,45,is known as enculturation(文化适应). Cultures are often identified by their 46-images that are familiar and have meanings.Totem(图腾)poles carved with animal and creative figures suggest aspects of the Native American peoples of the Pacific Northwest but more accurately 47 specific families.In Asia and India,the color of yellow is identified with Buddhist and Hindu priests; in ancient China it was a color only for the family of the 48.Thus,different cultures may respond to a symbol quite 49.For ex- Final test②)o ample,to some a flag may represent pride, historical accomplishments,or ideals;to oth- ers,50,it can mean danger or oppression. To individuals unfamiliar with cultures outside their own,the beliefs,behaviors,and artistic expression of other groups can seem 51 and even threatening.A society that 52 all other cultures with its own stan- dards is said to be ethnocentric(民族优越感 )A strongly ethnocentric society also as- sumes that what is different from its own cul- ture is likely to be 53 and,possibly,wrong or evil. All people are ethnocentric to some de- gree,and aspects of ethnocentrism,such as national pride,54 a well-functioning soci- ety.An appreciation for one's own culture, however,does not preclude(排除)accep- tance and respect for another culture.History documents the long-term vigor and success of multicultural groups in which people from nu- merous and diverse cultural backgrounds live and work together.Ethnocentrism,55, can lead to racism-the belief that it is race and ethnic origin that account for variations in human character or ability and that one's own race is superior to all others. 41.A.benefits B.involves C.attracts D.neglects 42.A.learned B.created C.developed D.inherited 43.A.supplied B.exchanged C.carried D.born 87 高中英语选择性必修第四册（外研版） 44.A.style B.taste C.method D.culture 45.A.therefore B.besides C.otherwise D.nevertheless 46.A.religions B.symbols C.arts D.traditions 47.A.make up B.take over C.stand for D.bring up 48.A.minister B.maid C.prisoner D.emperor 49.A.appropriately B.positively C.differently D.similarly 50.A.furthermore B.however C.thus D.also 51.A.national B.normal C.pleasant D.strange 52.A.removes B.ranks C.controls D.abandons 53.A.inferior B.productive C.traditional D.industrial 54.A.belong to B.refer to C.turn to D.contribute to 55.A.in contrast B.in particular C.as a result D.on the whole 第二节（共10小题；每小题1.5分，满分 15分) 阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1个适当 的词或括号内单词的正确形式。 Currently under construction off the coun- try's northeast coast,the Dalian Jinzhou Bay International Airport will eventually cover 56. 8-square-mile island with four runways and a 969,000 sqft passenger termi- 88 nal,according to an airport statement.Its op- erators aim 57.

The meeting started with a presentation showing some common uncivilized behaviors like littering in the school- yard,making loud noises in the library and damaging school facilities intentionally.Then,we had a heated dis- cussion in groups on how to correct these behaviors.Final- ly,an agreement was reached that some posters should be put up to remind everyone to behave politely. I think such activities can raise our awareness of civi- lised behaviors.I suggest more similar activities be held in 136 the future Yours, Li Hua 第二节（满分25分） Paragraph 1: All of a sudden,a flower painting on the wall caught Regina's eye.Inspiration struck Regina like a lightning bolt, her eyes sparkling/twinkling with excitement.She raced upstairs,grabbed her art supplies and sat down at her desk with unwavering determination.Looking at the remaining carnations below the window,she moved her brush.As her brush moved smoothly across the paper,carnations came alive,as if smiling merrily at her.At the thought that this ideal way might work,Regina's face lit up with pleasure. Day in and day out,Regina made one painting after anoth- er.The next few days witnessed Regina's continuing efforts and burst of creativity.She even drew the greedy Butter- milk and hot-tempered dog.Her paintings mounted,but Regina's heart was beating faster than a galloping horse as the fair day was drawing near. Paragraph 2: A week later,the fair day,when her parents were load- ing the car,Regina brought her vivid paintings downstairs. With butterflies in her stomach,she presented the paintings to Mama,hoping they could bring her a trace of comfort. Utterly in disbelief at these lifelike paintings,Mama's lips curled into a warm smile,tears welling up in her eyes,not just for the bright colors,but for the sweat Regina put in bringing the flowers back to life,meaningful and invalu- able.She gathered Regina into her arms with affection. "Do you think anyone will buy them?"Regina asked.Ma- ma smiled,"Oh,sweetie,yes.I'm sure they will."Regi- na's heart swelled with relief and happiness.The sunlight then shone upon the family.Not only were the carnations saved by Regina's striking innovation but their family bond was also strengthened.

small,indicating the need for further research,it underlines the importance of lifestyle changes in medicine.(尽管该研究的样本量较 小，表明需要进一步的研究，但它强调了生活方式改变 在医学中的重要性。)”以及画线单词所在的句子“such as heart diseases and diabetes,they have traditionally been seen as‘add-on'to mental health care(诸如心脏病和糖 尿病等疾病，传统上被视为心理健康护理的·附加 项’)”可知，这里强调了生活方式改变在医学中的重要 性，也就是说生活方式改变是其他医学领域（如心脏病 和糖尿病)的基本因素，所以画线单词意为“基本要 素”。故选C。 30.B【解析】细节理解题。根据最后一段中“Im portantly,the research does not say that lifestyle changes should replace professional mental health care.Instead,it recommends a comprehensive approach where both lifestyle therapy and traditional psychotherapy are available options. (重要的是，这项研究并没有说生活方式的改变应该取 代专业的心理健康护理。相反，它建议采用一种综合的 方法，在这种方法中，生活方式疗法和传统心理疗法都 是可选的方案)”可知，研究建议采取综合的方法，将 生活方式疗法和传统心理疗法都作为可选择的方式，也 就是把生活方式的改变纳入选择中。故选B。 31.B【解析】推理判断题。通读全文，再根据第一 段中“The research suggests that lifestyle therapy,.which includes nutritional consulting and regular physical activity. can be as effective as traditional psychotherapy(心理疗 法)in reducing depressive symptoms.(研究表明，包括 营养咨询和定期体育活动在内的生活方式疗法在减少抑 郁症状方面可能与传统心理疗法一样有效。)”可知，文 章主要讲述了研究发现生活方式疗法对轻中度抑郁有 效，由此可知，这篇文章可能出现在杂志的“健康与保 健”一栏。故选B。 32.B【解析】细节理解题。根据文章第一段“Sci ence should guide policy,but caution is needed when tech- nologies like CRISPR have the potential to exclude rather than assist people to live their lives.(科学应该指导政策， 但当像CRISPR这样的技术有可能排斥而不是帮助人们 生活时，需要谨慎。)”和第二段中“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 identi- fies as faulty or abnormal genes that cause difference inin- dividual people.(CRISPR可用于治疗疾病。然而，这项 技术更深远且更令人担忧的前景一一科学家们对此既兴 奋又谨慎一一在于其能够从基因库中消除医学界认定的 导致个体差异的缺陷或异常基因。)”可知，作者担心 CRISPR可能被滥用，以排除具有遗传差异的个体。故 选B。 33.B【解析】推理判断题。由文章第四段中“Us ing genome manipulation tools and performing genetic se- lection is equal to a new form of eugenic thinking ground- ed 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 sim- ilar 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，这种思维基于传播研究 学者James L.Chemey所说的‘常识'残疾主义，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’残疾主义体 现了与过去旨在消除所谓劣等人类的运动所持有的清洗 不可接受的人类变异的类似目标。)”可知，作者暗示 “常识”残疾主义是一种被广泛接受的微妙的歧视形式 故选B。 34.B【解析】推理判断题。由文章第五段中“Po 参考答案。 ple with 'bad'genes shouldn't be edited out of existence in some version of a utopian future.Evaluating the quality of life of another person is morally questionable in a soci- ety based on the concept that all people are of equal value regardless of their individual differences.(拥有‘不良'基 因的人不应在某种乌托邦式的未来中被编辑掉而不复存 在。在一个认为所有人无论个体差异如何都具有同等价 值的社会里，评价他人的生活质量在道德上是站不住脚 的。)”可知，这里“乌托邦式的未来”指的是一个理想 化、完美的未来，但作者用它来警示人们不要过度追求 基因改造，因为这可能导致排斥和消灭有遗传差异的 人。因此，这个术语强调了基因改造可能带来的潜在危 险。故选B。 35.C【解析】主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是由文 章第二段中“CRISPR can be used to treat disease.Yet the far-reaching,more worrying promise of this technolo- gy-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 于治疗疾病。然而，这项技术更深远且更令人担忧的前 景—一科学家们对此既兴奋又谨慎—一在于其能够从基 因库中消除医学界认定的导致个体差异的缺陷或异常基 因。)”、第五段中“People with bad'genes shouldn'tbe edited out of existence in some version of a utopian future. Evaluating the quality of life of another person is morally questionable in a society based on the concept that all peo- ple are of equal value regardless of their individual differ- ences..(拥有‘不良'基因的人不应在某种乌托邦式的 未来中被编辑掉而不复存在。在一个认为所有人无论个 体差异如何都具有同等价值的社会里，评价他人的生活 质量在道德上是站不住脚的。)”可知，文章主要讨论了 CRISPR技术在消除遗传差异方面的潜在危险，并强调 了社会中普遍存在的那种希望通过技术手段（如 CRISPR基因编辑)来消除所谓“遗传缺陷”的观点， 实际上在道德和伦理层面上是存在问题的。故选C。 第二节（共5小题：每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 36~40 BGEAC 36.B【解析】空前“The storms in our lives often leave behind gifts if we open our eyes to see them.As the skies clear and you start to emerge
