Becoming a nurse was practically a natural choice for little Eugenia Millender, who began her years of health service by helping her grandmother, who didn’t like needles, with her injections. Born in Panama, Millender grew up in a racially diverse family and community. Her mother was Afro-Latina Panamanian, and her father was indigenous (本地的) Guna Panamanian.
When Millender was 12, she arrived in Brooklyn with her mother, hoping to bring her a better life. They experienced poverty, and Millender saw the access and quality of health care people received. “My mother didn’t speak English, and when she tried to get care, people ignored her,” she says. Then she moved to Florida as a teenager and joined the army after high school, which allowed her to earn her undergraduate and master’s degrees in nursing. Working in emergency departments, which often cared for the uninsured, she witnessed families struggling with the same challenges her mother had.
“You know they don’t have the resources to take care of their loved ones once they are discharged from the hospital, or they don’t understand what the doctors and nurses are telling them because they speak a different language or an indigenous language,” she says.
Now as a professor at Florida State University College of Nursing, Millender co-founded an institute and serves as its co-director. The institute focuses on addressing the causes of health inequities— from language and cultural barriers to mental-health challenges. Drawing on her own experiences, she spends time learning from communities about their needs and the obstacles they face. That includes incorporating, rather than dismissing, cultural beliefs, and community-based programs that connect people with health care, often for the first time.
Recently, Millender has seen her work come full circle with programs she has launched in her native Panama to improve health care for indigenous people. “I feel very privileged, so I have to give back,” she says.
4. What inspired Millender to become a nurse?
A. Her parents’ expectations. B. Her childhood experiences.
C. Her desire to get out of poverty. D. Her love for science and medicine.
5. What challenge did Millender’s mother face in accessing health care?
A. The unstable job. B. The language barrier.
C. The lack of personal insurance. D. The lack of family companionship.
6. What does paragraph 4 tell us about Millender?
A. Her wish to attain professorship. B. Her relationship with the community.
C. Her efforts to tackle health unfairness. D. Her opinions on professional health care.
7. Which word best describes Millender?
A. Ambitious. B. Honest. C. Strict. D. Defensive.
C
Cities are difficult to navigate (导航) at the best of times but for people with disabilities they can be like courses with hurdles (障碍) and bring inconvenience to disabled people.
A UK national travel survey found that adults with mobility difficulties took 39% fewer trips than those with no disability in 2017. Yet that could change as devices and cities grow smarter. Assistive tech is playing a big role in the transformation. The global value of the industry is expected to increase from $14 billion in 2015 to $30.8 billion in 2024, according to Zion Market Research.
One of the things that could transform lives is a smart walking stick designed by engineers from Young Guru Academy (YGA) in Turkey. The WeWalk stick has a sensor that detects hurdles above chest level and uses vibrations (振动) to warn the user. It can be paired with a smartphone to help navigation, and is connected with a voice assistant and Google Maps.
Ceylan who has been blind since birth, says that connecting the stick to the Internet of Things and smart city solutions makes it user-friendly. “As a blind person, when I am at the Metro station I don’t know which is my exit... I don’t know which bus is approaching... which stores are around me. That kind of information can be provided with the WeWalk,” he says.
“The smart walking stick is really an exciting initiative that will make a huge difference to some people,” says Anna Lawson, the director of the Center for Disability Studies at Leeds University in the United Kingdom. “But they are very expensive... they’re not going to be available to the vast majority of disabled people,” she added.
Bryan Matthews, a lecturer at the Institute for Transport Studies at the University of Leeds, shares the concerns about cost. He says there should also be a focus on inclusive design, and anything that helps people navigate their environment is positive.
8. What is a key feature of the WeWalk smart walking stick?
A. It can automatically call a bus for the user.
B. It uses sound to detect hurdles above chest level.
C. Its sensor warns the user of high obstacles through vibrations.
D. It is designed to be affordable for the majority of disabled people.
9. What’s the purpose of quoting Ceylan?
A. To show the value of smart tech. B. To urge more attention to the blind.
C. To increase the potential market share. D. To encourage tech research and development.
10. What’s the meaning of “initiative” in Paragraph 5?
A. a personal hobby B. a financial problem.
C. a scientific theory. D. a new plan or process.
11. What is the disadvantage of the WeWalk stick?
A. Confusing instructions. B. Poor navigation.
C. Inclusive designs. D. High prices.
D
Chinese astronauts conducted a science lecture to millions of students on Dec. 9, 2021 from the Tiangong space station. The three astronauts, Zhai Zhigang, Wang Yaping and Ye Guangfu, showed life in space and conducted experiments in microgravity.
It was the first lecture of the Tiangong Class, China ’s first extraterrestrial (地球外的) lecture series. Its goal is to popularize space science.
“The laboratory of the space station has many conditions that the Earth laboratory does not have, such as the environment of weightlessness and radiation, ” said Wen Xin, a professor at Nanjing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics. He said that important jobs for astronauts in the space station include cell observation and maintaining plant life.
In the lecture, Ye demonstrated experiments related to cell growth in a weightless environment. He compared the growth and shape of cells in artificial gravity and zero-gravity to study their changing principles in space.
Another experiment in the space lecture was shown by Wang Yaping. She illustrated how a paper flower “bloomed” on the surface of water in Tiangong space station. She explained that the surface tension of water is magnified (放大) in space due to zero gravity.
One of the examples of surface tension on Earth is that some insects can “walk” on water. They use surface tension to “stand” instead of falling through water.
Surface tension plays a key role in product development. Researchers around the world are measuring surface tension to improve the quality of their products, according to Biolin Scientific, a science company. Paints are tailored to stick better on the surfaces they are applied to. Surface tension also has impacts in drug development.
Although the astronauts are thousands of miles away, their research does influence our life. Shi Yi, a teacher at the Beijing No. 101 Middle School, told China Daily that the space lecture was “an eye-opening experience that would arouse students’ interest in science”.
12. What makes the space laboratory special?
A. It is operated by a professor.
B. It has a unique experiment environment.
C. It broadcasts experiments to students.
D. It promotes cell growth.
13. What can we learn through Ye’s cell experiment in space?
A. The rules of cell growth. B. The secret in a weightless environment.
C. The conditions of cell growth. D. The differences between the universe and the earth.
14. What can we say about surface tension?
A. It can speed up flower blooming. B. It is related to product quality.
C. Paints have an influence on it. D. Drugs are used to measure it.
15. Which of the following is the best title of the passage?
A. Special Laboratory Environments B. Examples of Surface Tension
C. Learning from Space D. Lectures about Cells

47. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
One year ago, when we were in the fifth grade, a new classmate named Jack joined us. He was often late for class and had a strange smell on him, which made the girls not want to be “neighbours” with him, let alone sit next to him. It is said that once, a naughty boy curiously opened his backpack and many crushed soda cans and empty drink bottles that we usually throw into the trash fell out. Therefore, the boys in our class mocked (嘲笑) him as the “trash king”.
Later, during a class meeting, our teacher, Ms. Zhang, told us about his story of using garbage to make inventions. It turns out that Jack is not an ordinary elementary school student, but a “garbage-inspired inventor” who has won the city invention award. According to Ms. Zhang, most of his inventions were picked up from garbage dumps (堆). During that class meeting, Jack showed us his invention of a“domestic wastewater separation system”.
Afterwards, some of us became deeply interested in these small inventions and started to admire Jack’s way of “picking up trash”. We even joined him in picking up trash on weekends and during holidays. From then on, we no longer called him the “trash king“. Instead, we formed a group of five boys and actively searched for usable materials in various garbage dumps around the city. Under Jack’s guidance, we learned that there are many uses for seemingly useless trash. Once, we stayed at school to process the collected materials. Jack mentioned that he was facing a problem with his latest invention—a small cart for buying vegetables that needed to be lightweight. All other materials were solved except for the wheels. How could we find a suitable material for the wheels? We racked our brains (绞尽脑汁) and came up with different ideas, such as using soda cans or taking off the wheels from suitcases. However, Jack reminded us that our group should focus on making inventions from waste rather than causing damage to create them. We were all deep in thought.
注意:
1.续写词数应为150左右;
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
When I got home and drank a bottle of water, I suddenly had an idea.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Jack indeed adopted my suggestion and fixed a row of bottle caps as wheels on his vegetable cart.

“You know they don’t have the resources to take care of their loved ones once they are discharged from the hospital, or they don’t understand what the doctors and nurses are telling them because they speak a different language or an indigenous language,” she says.
Now as a professor at Florida State University College of Nursing, Millender co-founded an institute and serves as its co-director. The institute focuses on addressing the causes of health inequities— from language and cultural barriers to mental-health challenges. Drawing on her own experiences, she spends time learning from communities about their needs and the obstacles they face. That includes incorporating, rather than dismissing, cultural beliefs, and community-based programs that connect people with health care, often for the first time.
Recently, Millender has seen her work come full circle with programs she has launched in her native Panama to improve health care for indigenous people. “I feel very privileged, so I have to give back,” she says.
4. What inspired Millender to become a nurse?
A. Her parents’ expectations. B. Her childhood experiences.
C. Her desire to get out of poverty. D. Her love for science and medicine.
5. What challenge did Millender’s mother face in accessing health care?
A. The unstable job. B. The language barrier.
C. The lack of personal insurance. D. The lack of family companionship.
6. What does paragraph 4 tell us about Millender?
A. Her wish to attain professorship. B. Her relationship with the community.
C. Her efforts to tackle health unfairness. D. Her opinions on professional health care.
7. Which word best describes Millender?

Cities are difficult to navigate (导航) at the best of times, but for people with disabilities they can be like courses with hurdles (障碍) and bring inconvenience to disabled people.
A UK national travel survey found that adults with mobility difficulties took 39% fewer trips than those with no disability in 2017. Yet that could change as devices and cities grow smarter. Assistive tech is playing a big role in the transformation. The global value of the industry is expected to increase from $14 billion in 2015 to $30.8 billion in 2024, according to Zion Market Research.
One of the things that could transform lives is a smart walking stick designed by engineers from Young Guru Academy (YGA) in Turkey. The WeWalk stick has a sensor that detects hurdles above chest level and uses vibrations (振动) to warn the user. It can be paired with a smartphone to help navigation, and is connected with a voice assistant and Google Maps.
Ceylan, who has been blind since birth, says that connecting the stick to the Internet of Things and smart city solutions makes it user-friendly. “As a blind person, when I am at the Metro station I don’t know which is my exit... I don’t know which bus is approaching... which stores are around me. That kind of information can be provided with the WeWalk,” he says.
“The smart walking stick is really an exciting initiative that will make a huge difference to some people,” says Anna Lawson, the director of the Center for Disability Studies at Leeds University in the United Kingdom. “But they are very expensive... they’re not going to be available to the vast majority of disabled people,” she added.
Bryan Matthews, a lecturer at the Institute for Transport Studies at the University of Leeds, shares the concerns about cost. He says there should also be a focus on inclusive design, and anything that helps people navigate their environment is positive.
8. What is a key feature of the WeWalk smart walking stick?
A. It can automatically call a bus for the user.
B. It uses sound to detect hurdles above chest level.
C. Its sensor warns the user of high obstacles through vibrations.
D. It is designed to be affordable for the majority of disabled people.
9. What’s the purpose of quoting Ceylan?
A. To show the value of smart tech. B. To urge more attention to the blind.
C. To increase the potential market share. D. To encourage tech research and development.
10. What’s the meaning of “initiative” in Paragraph 5?
A. a personal hobby B. a financial problem.
C. a scientific theory. D. a new plan or process.
11. What is the disadvantage of the WeWalk stick?
A. Confusing instructions. B. Poor navigation.
C. Inclusive designs. D. High prices.

Chinese astronauts conducted a science lecture to millions of students on Dec. 9, 2021 from the Tiangong space station. The three astronauts, Zhai Zhigang, Wang Yaping and Ye Guangfu, showed life in space and conducted experiments in microgravity.
It was the first lecture of the Tiangong Class, China ’s first extraterrestrial (地球外的) lecture series. Its goal is to popularize space science.
“The laboratory of the space station has many conditions that the Earth laboratory does not have, such as the environment of weightlessness and radiation, ” said Wen Xin, a professor at Nanjing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics. He said that important jobs for astronauts in the space station include cell observation and maintaining plant life.
In the lecture, Ye demonstrated experiments related to cell growth in a weightless environment. He compared the growth and shape of cells in artificial gravity and zero-gravity to study their changing principles in space.
Another experiment in the space lecture was shown by Wang Yaping. She illustrated how a paper flower “bloomed” on the surface of water in Tiangong space station. She explained that the surface tension of water is magnified (放大) in space due to zero gravity.
One of the examples of surface tension on Earth is that some insects can “walk” on water. They use surface tension to “stand” instead of falling through water.
Surface tension plays a key role in product development. Researchers around the world are measuring surface tension to improve the quality of their products, according to Biolin Scientific, a science company. Paints are tailored to stick better on the surfaces they are applied to. Surface tension also has impacts in drug development.
Although the astronauts are thousands of miles away, their research does influence our life. Shi Yi, a teacher at the Beijing No. 101 Middle School, told China Daily that the space lecture was “an eye-opening experience that would arouse students’ interest in science”.
12. What makes the space laboratory special?
A. It is operated by a professor.
B. It has a unique experiment environment.
C. It broadcasts experiments to students.
D It promotes cell growth.
13. What can we learn through Ye’s cell experiment in space?
A. The rules of cell growth. B. The secret in a weightless environment.
C. The conditions of cell growth. D. The differences between the universe and the earth.
14. What can we say about surface tension?
A. It can speed up flower blooming. B. It is related to product quality.
C. Paints have an influence on it. D. Drugs are used to measure it.
15. Which of the following is the best title of the passage?
A. Special Laboratory Environments B. Examples of Surface Tension
C. Learning from Space D. Lectures about Cells
【答案】12. B 13. A 14. B 15. C

考查非谓语动词。句意:这种技术可以让舰载机起降更多种类的飞机,包括满载隐形战斗机和大型预警机,从而大大提高其航程和作战能力。分析句子可知,此处为非谓语动词作状语,enhance和逻辑主语前面整句话为主动关系,所以为现在分词形式。故填enhancing。
【42题详解】
考查动词不定式。句意:军事专家表示,这一发展增强了中国维护国家利益和保护海外项目的能力。capability to do sth. 是固定搭配,意为“做某事的能力”,所以此处为不定式 to safeguard(维护)作后置定语修饰capability。故填to safeguard。
【43题详解】
考查副词。句意:然而,他们也特别强调,中国不希望进行军备竞赛。此处修饰动词 stress(强调),需用副词,particular副词形式是 particularly(尤其)。故填particularly。
【44题详解】
考查形容词。句意:中国的军事现代化被描述为维护地区稳定和保护主权的防御性步骤。此处修饰名词stability(稳定),需用形容词,region 的形容词形式是 regional(地区的),regional stability 意为“地区稳定”。故填regional。
【45题详解】
考查连词。句意:福建舰号已经服役,这是中国海军向前迈出的重要一步。根据句意可知,前半句“福建舰已服役”和后半句“这是中国海军的重要进步”是并列顺承关系,故填并列连词and。故填and。

47. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
One year ago, when we were in the fifth grade, a new classmate named Jack joined us. He was often late for class and had a strange smell on him, which made the girls not want to be “neighbours” with him, let alone sit next to him. It is said that once, a naughty boy curiously opened his backpack and many crushed soda cans and empty drink bottles that we usually throw into the trash fell out. Therefore, the boys in our class mocked (嘲笑) him as the “trash king”.
Later, during a class meeting, our teacher, Ms. Zhang, told us about his story of using garbage to make inventions. It turns out that Jack is not an ordinary elementary school student, but a “garbage-inspired inventor” who has won the city invention award. According to Ms. Zhang, most of his inventions were picked up from garbage dumps (堆). During that class meeting, Jack showed us his invention of a“domestic wastewater separation system”.
Afterwards, some of us became deeply interested in these small inventions and started to admire Jack’s way of “picking up trash”. We even joined him in picking up trash on weekends and during holidays. From then on, we no longer called him the “trash king“. Instead, we formed a group of five boys and actively searched for usable materials in various garbage dumps around the city. Under Jack’s guidance, we learned that there are many uses for seemingly useless trash. Once, we stayed at school to process the collected materials. Jack mentioned that he was facing a problem with his latest invention—a small cart for buying vegetables that needed to be lightweight. All other materials were solved except for the wheels. How could we find a suitable material for the wheels? We racked our brains (绞尽脑汁) and came up with different ideas, such as using soda cans or taking off the wheels from suitcases. However, Jack reminded us that our group should focus on making inventions from waste rather than causing damage to create them. We were all deep in thought.

【答案】 When I got home and drank a bottle of water, I suddenly had an idea. What if we could use bottle caps as wheels for Jack’s vegetable cart? It seemed like a simple solution, but it could work if we found enough bottle caps. Excited, I shared my idea with the group the next day. Jack’s eyes lit up with enthusiasm as he realized the potential of this suggestion. We immediately set out to collect as many bottle caps as we could find, scouring not only the garbage dumps but also asking friends and family to save them for us.
Jack indeed adopted my suggestion and fixed a row of bottle caps as wheels on his vegetable cart. It was a moment of triumph for all of us, seeing our collective efforts and creativity come to fruition. The cart rolled smoothly, and we celebrated our success with high-fives and laughter. This experience taught us the power of collaboration, innovation, and looking beyond the surface of things. Inspired by Jack’s ingenuity, our group continued to explore ways to repurpose waste, knowing that small actions could lead to big changes in our community and beyond.
