With the drugs that she created, Getrade Elion achieved her life’s mission: to relieving human suffering. Beyond the individual drugs she discovered, she pioneered a now, more scientific approach to drug development that forever changed medical research.
When she was 15, Elion’s grandfather died from cancer painfully. The experience decided her career path. At age 19, with a degree in chemistry, she looked for work. She took jobs as a secretary, a chemistry teacher, and an unpaid worker in a lab. Finally, in 1944, Elion found the job of her dreams, assisting George Hitchings at Burroughs Wellcome, a drug company.
Hitchings and Elion gave up the traditional trial-and-error approach to drug development, in favor of a scientific approach. Starting from the understanding that all cells require nucleic acid (核酸) to reproduce, they reasoned that rapidly growing bacteria (细菌) require even more to keep the pace of growth. Find a way to disrupt (扰乱) their life cycle, and you find a way to stop disease.
Elion’s first major discovery was a substance that disrupts the formation of leukaemia cells. But the effect failed to last long. Elion determined to find a way to make the effects of her drug last longer.
Elion’s final major breakthrough was in the development of the drug acyclovir. Scientists doubted that drugs could be invented to fight viruses: any substance that would kill a virus would be poisonous to the body. However, through tireless efforts, the drug Elion’s team developed could be used to fight many diseases. Elion’s name appears on 45 patents for life-saving and life-changing drugs.
Though her individual discoveries were significant, when Elion received the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 1988, it wasn’t for one particular drug — it was for a new, more reasonable approach to drug development. As a result, although she died in 1999 at the age of 81, Gertrude Elion is still saving lives.
4. What inspired Elion to go into medical research?
A. Her grandfather’s death. B. Her teaching experience.
C. A drug company’s influence. D. George Hitching’s encouragement.
5. What was the key to stopping disease according to Elion?
A. Finding a poisonous substance to kill viruses.
B. Quickening the speed of growth of all cells.
C. Preventing the formation of bacteria.
D. Removing tissues attacked by bacteria.
6. What did other scientists think of the drug acyclovir at first?
A. It should be put into use immediately.
B. It might be harmful to human bodies.
C. It could only have short-term effects.
D. It could be used to fight many diseases
7. Why did Elion win the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine?
A. She pioneered a new way of developing drugs.
B. She discovered a life-saving drug.
C. She obtained 45 patents.
D. She adopted a trial-and-error approach in medical research
C
You’ve probably heard that brick-and-mortar retail (实体零售) is in trouble. Even industry giants are closing hundreds of stores. Given retail’s gradual change to mobile and e-commerce (电子商务), you may be wondering, “What will retail look like in the future?” Nobody knows. But here are a few things you can expect to see based on current technology.
Ultrafast delivery is coming. Today, the normal practice is two-day delivery. But if you’ve been paying attention, you know that’s changing. In fact, a surprisingly high 25% of consumers said that they would abandon their orders if one-day delivery wasn’t available. Of course, that’s just the beginning. Two-hour delivery is coming in the foreseeable future, and Amazon has already been trying 30-minute delivery.
Your kitchen will resupply itself. You won’t have to worry about running out of essentials like coffee, pet food or snacks because your containers will sense stock (库存) levels and replace those items without you having to lift a finger. No more waking up to find your coffee store is empty or last-minute trips to the grocery store because you forgot to buy pet food.
Know exactly what’s in stock and where. Have you ever gone to a store hoping to buy something, only to learn that they were out of stock? A new feature from Google Home allows people to ask Google Assistants to find in-stock products at the closest store. For example: “Google, where can I find the Nintendo Switch console?” An assistant will tell you how many stores have it right then and how close they are. Of course, it isn’t currently available for all stores in all locations, but you can already see a future when it has become standard.
Convenience, experience, and options — retail will take on a new look.
8. How does the author illustrate the future of retail?
A. By citing research. B. By listing examples.
C. By proposing theories. D. By using logical arguments.
9. What can we learn from Paragraph 2?
A. Consumers can’t get their orders in one day now.
B. It is possible to deliver goods within two hours in the future.
C. The delivery will be in two days in the future.
D Superfast delivery has widely been used now.
10. According to the passage, what will happen in the future?
A. Retail will disappear gradually.
B. Industrial giants will rule the whole retail trade.
C. Shopping will be more convenient and effective.
D. People will ask Google Assistants to purchase goods.
11. What’s the best title of the passage?
A. What will retail be like in the future?
B. How will new technology change the world?
C. How will we run the retail trade in the future?
D. What benefits will high-tech bring in the future?
D
We’ve all experienced the sudden urge to check our phone, and a new study from Duke University might explain why. The research suggests that this isn’t just a bad habit, but rather that our smartphones might be reshaping our brain’s reward system, making us seek information in a way similar to how we seek food or money.
The study involved people playing a simple game where they had to choose between different symbols that offered certain chances of receiving a reward. The rewards were either money, the opportunity to learn a random piece of information (like a fun fact), or nothing. Meanwhile, the participants’ brain activity was monitored using FMRI scans.
The results were striking. The researchers found that the brain’s dopamine-rich reward centers, particularly the vmPFC (前额叶皮层), became active when participants were expecting both monetary rewards and informational rewards. This suggests that our brains process the opportunity to gain new information as a valuable reward itself. The desire for information followed a classic “law of demand” — the more expensive (in terms of effort or cost) it was to get information, the less people sought it, just like any other product.
“This finding helps explain the ‘checking’ behavior we see with smartphones,” said the study’s lead author. “Each time we slide down to refresh our news feed or check updates, we are essentially seeking a small piece of new information. Our brain perceives this information as having potential value, releasing dopamine (多巴胺) that makes the action feel rewarding, even if the information itself is unimportant.”
The researchers believe this insight is crucial for understanding modern behaviors. It indicates that the appeal of digital platforms is not merely about social connection but taps into a fundamental biological mechanism. However, they also warn that this cycle, if left unchecked, could contribute to problematic internet use, as the brain gets caught in a continuous circle of seeking minor informational rewards.
12. How does the author introduce his topic?
A. By presenting a personal experience.
B. By describing a common daily behavior.
C. By quoting a famous philosopher’s saying.
D. By comparing ancient and modern human behaviors.
13. The author mentions the “FMRI scans” in Paragraph 2 mainly to ________.
A. emphasize the high cost of the scientific research
B. describe the physical experience of the participants
C. provide objective evidence for the study’s conclusions
D. explain the complex technology used in modern psychology
14. What does the “law of demand” in Paragraph 3 indicate ?
A. The harder it is to get information, the less people want it.
B. People always want more information regardless of the cost.
C. The value of information decreases as it becomes easier to get.
D. Information is the most valuable product in the modern world.
15. What is the potential risk of the brain’s reward system for information?
A. It could slow down our thinking process.
B. It might end up with too much screen time.
C. It can damage our brain’s fundamental structure.
D. It will prevent us from learning essential knowledge.
第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)
With offices slowly re-opening, we may soon be expected to go back to interviewing in the old-fashioned way—in person. During an interview, your main job is to sell yourself as a confident and capable asset. But how can you do that? One thing you should do is think about your body language. ___16___
● Give a good handshake but not too good. We’ve all heard that a handshake should be firm because one that is too soft can make you appear weak or shy. ___17___ You should avoid that. Instead, conduct a proper one to make both the interviewers and you comfortable.
● Watch your posture(姿势)and maintain eye contact. ___18___ Nothing conveys disinterest and lack of confidence like a slouch (懒散的人). And remember that although it may feel uncomfortable at times, eye contact is also key—especially while the other person is talking.
● ___19___ If you keep putting your hands on or near your face, it can send the message that you’re not comfortable with what you’re saying. When you’re not gesturing, put your hands in your lap. And don’t forget to smile—a smile not only conveys warmth, receptivity and positivity, it also helps reduce stress.
● Listen actively and try using the mirroring technique. Active listening is a key part of any interview. ___20___ Mirroring or copying someone’s body language is also a powerful way to convey connection. Face your interviewers directly, sit in the same position and try to match the pace and volume of their talk.
A. Don’t gesture but smile.
B. But there is such a thing as too firm.
C. And here are some common red flags to avoid
D Keep your hands away from your face and smile.
E. This may seem obvious but it bears repeating: Sit up straight.
F. By doing so, you indicate to the interviewers that they have your full attention.
G. Here are a few ways to use body language to your advantage in your job interview.

47. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写一段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
My great-grandmother Eileen, who is 92 years old, is fierce, loyal and strong and a bit of a legend in her own lifetime. We’re not allowed to call her Gran, because she says it makes her feel old.
That summer, I lost my job and felt hopeless and down all time. One day, I paid a visit to her. She picked up a box on the coffee table. “There you go,” she said. “You do know what you’re doing with these things, don’t you?” It was a new phone. Her current mobile was pretty ancient. I was amazed it was still going.
“Yes,” I said.
“Good. That’s why I ask you. You young people know more about such things than us oldies. You can take it home with you and get it all set up,” she went on. “Then, when you bring it back, you can show me how to use my new phone, such as getting on the Internet, sending e-mails and so on.” She smiled so sweetly that I felt a surge of love for her.
I grabbed the box and stood up. Setting up the phone was easy. It was teaching her how to use it that proved challenging.
The following day I headed back to my great-grandmother’s with the phone. “Here’s your phone. It’s all ready to use.” For the following hours, I was busy setting up her passcode (密码) and fingerprint recognition, which she said was like something out of James Bond.
She chose a picture for her screen and it was all going so well until I tried to show her how to swipe (滑动屏幕). “What do you mean, swipe?” she asked. She was 92, I reminded myself. This had been tiring for her.
She pressed at the screen and got annoyed when nothing happened. When I finally got her to swipe, she didn’t put the right amount of pressure and the menu slipped away. After what seemed like hours, she threw the phone across the room and it landed on the sofa. “Take it away!” she cried. “I want my old phone back!”
I was about to leave to give her time to cool down when I realized I didn’t want to go home while she was angry and upset.
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。
“Come on, Eileen. One more try.” I said.______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
With the excitement , Eileen kept on practicing her new phone and experimenting with every possible new app over the next few weeks.______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

With the drugs that she created, Getrade Elion achieved her life’s mission: to relieving human suffering. Beyond the individual drugs she discovered, she pioneered a now, more scientific approach to drug development that forever changed medical research.
When she was 15, Elion’s grandfather died from cancer painfully. The experience decided her career path. At age 19, with a degree in chemistry, she looked for work. She took jobs as a secretary, a chemistry teacher, and an unpaid worker in a lab. Finally, in 1944, Elion found the job of her dreams, assisting George Hitchings at Burroughs Wellcome, a drug company.
Hitchings and Elion gave up the traditional trial-and-error approach to drug development, in favor of a scientific approach. Starting from the understanding that all cells require nucleic acid (核酸) to reproduce, they reasoned that rapidly growing bacteria (细菌) require even more to keep the pace of growth. Find a way to disrupt (扰乱) their life cycle, and you find a way to stop disease.
Elion’s first major discovery was a substance that disrupts the formation of leukaemia cells. But the effect failed to last long. Elion determined to find a way to make the effects of her drug last longer.
Elion’s final major breakthrough was in the development of the drug acyclovir. Scientists doubted that drugs could be invented to fight viruses: any substance that would kill a virus would be poisonous to the body. However, through tireless efforts, the drug Elion’s team developed could be used to fight many diseases. Elion’s name appears on 45 patents for life-saving and life-changing drugs.
Though her individual discoveries were significant, when Elion received the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 1988, it wasn’t for one particular drug — it was for a new, more reasonable approach to drug development. As a result, although she died in 1999 at the age of 81, Gertrude Elion is still saving lives.
4. What inspired Elion to go into medical research?
A. Her grandfather’s death. B. Her teaching experience.
C. A drug company’s influence. D. George Hitching’s encouragement.
5. What was the key to stopping disease according to Elion?
A. Finding a poisonous substance to kill viruses.
B. Quickening the speed of growth of all cells.
C. Preventing the formation of bacteria.
D. Removing tissues attacked by bacteria.
6. What did other scientists think of the drug acyclovir at first?
A. It should be put into use immediately.
B. It might be harmful to human bodies.
C. It could only have short-term effects.
D. It could be used to fight many diseases
7. Why did Elion win the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine?
A. She pioneered a new way of developing drugs.
B. She discovered a life-saving drug.
C. She obtained 45 patents.
D. She adopted a trial-and-error approach in medical research
【答案】4. A 5. C 6. B 7. A
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了Gertrude Elion的生平事迹及其在药物研发领域的重大贡献。
【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段前两句“When she was 15, Elion’s grandfather died from cancer painfully. The experience decided her career path.(Elion15岁的时候,她的祖父痛苦地死于癌症。这段经历决定了她的职业道路。)”可知,祖父的去世激励Elion从事医学研究。故选A。
【5题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段第二句和第三句“Starting from the understanding that all cells require nucleic acid (核酸) to reproduce, they reasoned that rapidly growing bacteria (细菌) require even more to keep the pace of growth. Find a way to disrupt (扰乱) their life cycle, and you find a way to stop disease.(从所有细胞都需要核酸来繁殖的认识出发,他们推断,快速生长的细菌需要更多的核酸来保持生长的速度。找到一种方法来破坏它们的生命周期,你就找到了一种方法来阻止疾病。)”可知,根据Elion的说法,阻止疾病的关键是阻止细菌的形成。故选C。
【6题详解】
推理判断题。根据第五段第二句“Scientists doubted that drugs could be invented to fight viruses: any substance that would kill a virus would be poisonous to the body.(科学家们对发明药物对抗病毒表示怀疑:任何能杀死病毒的物质对人体都是有毒的。)”可知,其他科学家一开始担心阿昔洛韦可能对人体有害。故选B。
【7题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段第一句“Though her individual discoveries were significant, when Elion received the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 1988, it wasn’t for one particular drug — it was for a new, more reasonable approach to drug development.(虽然Elion的个人发现意义重大,但当她在1988年获得诺贝尔生理学或医学奖时,并不是因为一种特定的药物,而是因为一种新的、更合理的药物开发方法。)”可知,Elion会获得诺贝尔生理学或医学奖是因为她开创了一种开发药物的新方法。故选A。
C
You’ve probably heard that brick-and-mortar retail (实体零售) is in trouble. Even industry giants are closing hundreds of stores. Given retail’s gradual change to mobile and e-commerce (电子商务), you may be wondering, “What will retail look like in the future?” Nobody knows. But here are a few things you can expect to see based on current technology.
Ultrafast delivery is coming. Today, the normal practice is two-day delivery. But if you’ve been paying attention, you know that’s changing. In fact, a surprisingly high 25% of consumers said that they would abandon their orders if one-day delivery wasn’t available. Of course, that’s just the beginning. Two-hour delivery is coming in the foreseeable future, and Amazon has already been trying 30-minute delivery.
Your kitchen will resupply itself. You won’t have to worry about running out of essentials like coffee, pet food or snacks because your containers will sense stock (库存) levels and replace those items without you having to lift a finger. No more waking up to find your coffee store is empty or last-minute trips to the grocery store because you forgot to buy pet food.
Know exactly what’s in stock and where. Have you ever gone to a store hoping to buy something, only to learn that they were out of stock? A new feature from Google Home allows people to ask Google Assistants to find in-stock products at the closest store. For example: “Google, where can I find the Nintendo Switch console?” An assistant will tell you how many stores have it right then and how close they are. Of course, it isn’t currently available for all stores in all locations, but you can already see a future when it has become standard.
Convenience, experience, and options — retail will take on a new look.
8. How does the author illustrate the future of retail?
A. By citing research. B. By listing examples.
C. By proposing theories. D. By using logical arguments.
9. What can we learn from Paragraph 2?
A. Consumers can’t get their orders in one day now.
B. It is possible to deliver goods within two hours in the future.
C. The delivery will be in two days in the future.
D. Superfast delivery has widely been used now.
10. According to the passage, what will happen in the future?
A. Retail will disappear gradually.
B. Industrial giants will rule the whole retail trade.
C. Shopping will be more convenient and effective.
D. People will ask Google Assistants to purchase goods.
11. What’s the best title of the passage?
A. What will retail be like in the future?
B. How will new technology change the world?
C. How will we run the retail trade in the future?
D. What benefits will high-tech bring in the future?
【答案】8. B 9. B 10. C 11. A

You won’t have to worry about running out of essentials like coffee, pet food or snacks because your containers will sense stock (库存) levels and replace those items without you having to lift a finger. No more waking up to find your coffee store is empty or last-minute trips to the grocery store because you forgot to buy pet food.(你的厨房会自我补给的。你不必担心咖啡、宠物食品或零食等必需品用完了,因为你的容器会感应到库存水平,你不用动一根手指就能补充这些物品。再也不用一觉醒来才发现家里的咖啡存货已空,也不用因为忘了买宠物食品而在最后一刻赶到杂货店。)”和第四段的句子“A new feature from Google Home allows people to ask Google Assistants to find in-stock products at the closest store. For example: “Google, where can I find the Nintendo Switch console?” An assistant will tell you how many stores have it right then and how close they are. Of course, it isn’t currently available for all stores in all locations, but you can already see a future when it has become standard.(Google Home推出的一项新功能,允许用户通过谷歌助手查询最近门店的现货商品。例如,你可以问:“谷歌,哪里能买到任天堂Switch游戏机?”助手会即时告知有该商品库存的门店数量及其距离。当然,目前这项功能尚未覆盖所有地区的所有门店,但我们已能预见它成为标配功能的未来。)”可知,作者分别列举了超快速配送、自动补货厨房设备和Google Assistant实时库存查询等具体例子,说明零售业的未来发展方向。故选B项。

We’ve all experienced the sudden urge to check our phone, and a new study from Duke University might explain why. The research suggests that this isn’t just a bad habit, but rather that our smartphones might be reshaping our brain’s reward system, making us seek information in a way similar to how we seek food or money.
The study involved people playing a simple game where they had to choose between different symbols that offered certain chances of receiving a reward. The rewards were either money, the opportunity to learn a random piece of information (like a fun fact), or nothing. Meanwhile, the participants’ brain activity was monitored using FMRI scans.
The results were striking. The researchers found that the brain’s dopamine-rich reward centers, particularly the vmPFC (前额叶皮层), became active when participants were expecting both monetary rewards and informational rewards. This suggests that our brains process the opportunity to gain new information as a valuable reward itself. The desire for information followed a classic “law of demand” — the more expensive (in terms of effort or cost) it was to get information, the less people sought it, just like any other product.
“This finding helps explain the ‘checking’ behavior we see with smartphones,” said the study’s lead author. “Each time we slide down to refresh our news feed or check updates, we are essentially seeking a small piece of new information. Our brain perceives this information as having potential value, releasing dopamine (多巴胺) that makes the action feel rewarding, even if the information itself is unimportant.”
The researchers believe this insight is crucial for understanding modern behaviors. It indicates that the appeal of digital platforms is not merely about social connection but taps into a fundamental biological mechanism. However, they also warn that this cycle, if left unchecked, could contribute to problematic internet use, as the brain gets caught in a continuous circle of seeking minor informational rewards.
12. How does the author introduce his topic?
A. By presenting a personal experience.
B. By describing a common daily behavior.
C. By quoting a famous philosopher’s saying.
D. By comparing ancient and modern human behaviors.
13. The author mentions the “FMRI scans” in Paragraph 2 mainly to ________.
A. emphasize the high cost of the scientific research
B. describe the physical experience of the participants
C. provide objective evidence for the study’s conclusions
D. explain the complex technology used in modern psychology
14. What does the “law of demand” in Paragraph 3 indicate ?
A. The harder it is to get information, the less people want it.
B. People always want more information regardless of the cost.
C The value of information decreases as it becomes easier to get.
D. Information is the most valuable product in the modern world.
15. What is the potential risk of the brain’s reward system for information?
A. It could slow down our thinking process.
B. It might end up with too much screen time.
C. It can damage our brain’s fundamental structure.
D. It will prevent us from learning essential knowledge.

【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中的“The desire for information followed a classic “law of demand” — the more expensive (in terms of effort or cost) it was to get information, the less people sought it, just like any other product.(对信息的渴望遵循经典的“需求定律”——获取信息的成本越高(无论是精力还是代价),人们寻求信息的意愿就越低,就像其他任何产品一样。)”可知,需求定律表明获取信息越困难,人们对其渴望度越低。故选A项。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“However, they also warn that this cycle, if left unchecked, could contribute to problematic internet use, as the brain gets caught in a continuous circle of seeking minor informational rewards.(然而,他们也警告说,如果不加控制,这种循环可能会导致有问题的互联网使用,因为大脑会陷入持续寻求微小信息奖励的循环中。)”可知,大脑对信息奖励系统的依赖可能导致人们过度使用电子设备,屏幕使用时间过长。故选B项。

With offices slowly re-opening, we may soon be expected to go back to interviewing in the old-fashioned way—in person. During an interview, your main job is to sell yourself as a confident and capable asset. But how can you do that? One thing you should do is think about your body language. ___16___
● Give a good handshake but not too good. We’ve all heard that a handshake should be firm because one that is too soft can make you appear weak or shy. ___17___ You should avoid that. Instead, conduct a proper one to make both the interviewers and you comfortable.
● Watch your posture(姿势)and maintain eye contact. ___18___ Nothing conveys disinterest and lack of confidence like a slouch (懒散的人). And remember that although it may feel uncomfortable at times, eye contact is also key—especially while the other person is talking.
● ___19___ If you keep putting your hands on or near your face, it can send the message that you’re not comfortable with what you’re saying. When you’re not gesturing, put your hands in your lap. And don’t forget to smile—a smile not only conveys warmth, receptivity and positivity, it also helps reduce stress.
● Listen actively and try using the mirroring technique. Active listening is a key part of any interview. ___20___ Mirroring or copying someone’s body language is also a powerful way to convey connection. Face your interviewers directly, sit in the same position and try to match the pace and volume of their talk.
A. Don’t gesture but smile.
B. But there is such a thing as too firm.
C. And here are some common red flags to avoid
D. Keep your hands away from your face and smile.
E. This may seem obvious but it bears repeating: Sit up straight.
F. By doing so, you indicate to the interviewers that they have your full attention.
G. Here are a few ways to use body language to your advantage in your job interview.
【答案】16. G 17. B 18. E 19. D 20. F
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了几个有助于面试的肢体语言。
【16题详解】
根据空前“During an interview, your main job is to sell yourself as a confident and capable asset. But how can you do that? One thing you should do is think about your body language.( 在面试中,你的主要工作是把自己推销成一个自信而有能力的人。但你怎么能做到呢?你应该做的一件事是考虑你的肢体语言)”及下文每段的主题句可知,空处承上启下,引出下文有关面试时肢体语言的一些建议。G项“下面是一些在面试中使用肢体语言的方法”符合语境。故选G。
【17题详解】
根据空前“Give a good handshake but not too good. We’ve all heard that a handshake should be firm because one that is too soft can make you appear weak or shy.(握手时要用力,但不要太用力。我们都听说过握手要有力,因为太软会让你显得软弱或害羞。)”及空后“You should avoid that.(你应该避免那些)”可知,空处应是在握手时需要避免的事情,承接上文,不要太用力的握手,因此推断B项“但是也有人握手握得太紧”符合语境。故选B。
【18题详解】
根据段落主题“Watch your posture(姿势)and maintain eye contact.( 注意你的姿势,保持眼神交流)”可知,此处讲述有关坐姿和眼神的情况,空后“Nothing conveys disinterest and lack of confidence like a slouch (懒散的人).( 没有什么比无精打采更能传达出不感兴趣和缺乏自信的了)”可知,不要显得无精打采,要坐直。因此推断E项“有一点似乎是显而易见的, 但依然需要重复,那就是‘坐直’”符合语境,说明坐姿要避免显得无精打采。故选E。
【19题详解】
空处为段落主题句。根据空后的内容, 尤其是“If you keep putting your hands on or near your face, it can send the message that you’re not comfortable with what you’re saying. When you’re not gesturing, put your hands in your lap. And don’t forget to smile—a smile not only conveys warmth, receptivity and positivity, it also helps reduce stress.( 如果你一直把手放在脸上或靠近脸,这可能会传递出你对自己所说的话感到不舒服的信息。当你不做手势的时候,把你的手放在膝盖上。别忘了微笑——微笑不仅传达了温暖、接受和积极,还有助于减轻压力)”可知, 此处讲述手的位置,以及保持微笑的重要性。因此推断D项“手离脸远点并保持微笑”为最佳标题。故选D。
【20题详解】
根据空前“Active listening is a key part of any interview.(积极倾听是任何面试的关键部分) ”可知,积极倾听是重要的, F项“你的这种做法是在向面试官表明你的全部注意力都在他们身上”符合语境,说明积极倾听表明你得注意力集中在面试官身上,承上启下,so指代上文的Active listening。故选F。

第二节(满分25分)
47. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写一段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
My great-grandmother Eileen, who is 92 years old, is fierce, loyal and strong and a bit of a legend in her own lifetime. We’re not allowed to call her Gran, because she says it makes her feel old.
That summer, I lost my job and felt hopeless and down all time. One day, I paid a visit to her. She picked up a box on the coffee table. “There you go,” she said. “You do know what you’re doing with these things, don’t you?” It was a new phone. Her current mobile was pretty ancient. I was amazed it was still going.
“Yes,” I said.
“Good. That’s why I ask you. You young people know more about such things than us oldies. You can take it home with you and get it all set up,” she went on. “Then, when you bring it back, you can show me how to use my new phone, such as getting on the Internet, sending e-mails and so on.” She smiled so sweetly that I felt a surge of love for her.
I grabbed the box and stood up. Setting up the phone was easy. It was teaching her how to use it that proved challenging.
The following day I headed back to my great-grandmother’s with the phone. “Here’s your phone. It’s all ready to use.” For the following hours, I was busy setting up her passcode (密码) and fingerprint recognition, which she said was like something out of James Bond.
She chose a picture for her screen and it was all going so well until I tried to show her how to swipe (滑动屏幕). “What do you mean, swipe?” she asked. She was 92, I reminded myself. This had been tiring for her.
She pressed at the screen and got annoyed when nothing happened. When I finally got her to swipe, she didn’t put the right amount of pressure and the menu slipped away. After what seemed like hours, she threw the phone across the room and it landed on the sofa. “Take it away!” she cried. “I want my old phone back!”
I was about to leave to give her time to cool down when I realized I didn’t want to go home while she was angry and upset.
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。
“Come on, Eileen. One more try.” I said.______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
With the excitement , Eileen kept on practicing her new phone and experimenting with every possible new app over the next few weeks.______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】“Come on, Eileen. One more try.” I said. “No,” Eileen insisted, “I just want my old phone back! ”, heading to retrieve (拿回) her repaired device. Gathering my patience, I stepped forward, hugged my Gran and gently explained that the old phone, just like an antique, was incapable of providing internet access or sending emails. “Please let go of the old one, and embrace the brand-new world.” I encouraged her. Empowered by my words, she mustered the courage to give it one more shot. Smoothly and magically, through the fingerprint recognition, this time, she swiped with the right amount of pressure and located the email app on the menu. She finally got the hang of it.
With the excitement, Eileen kept on practicing her new phone and experimenting with every possible new app over the next few weeks. More surprisingly, one day, a newly received e-mail blew me away, it reading “Please let go of the old job, just embrace another new opportunity.” The knowing (会意的) chuckle from my wise grandmother confirmed what I already knew deep down. The familiar yet powerful words lifted the weight from my shoulders, motivating me to seek out a better career. How wise and strong my grandmother was! The words kept echoing in my mind ever since. Even now, I am constantly reminded of the transformative experience, where I got the lesson— Out with the old, in with the new!
