In the small town of Elmsworth, life usually followed the changing of seasons and familiar faces that could be seen around. However, when a powerful tornado swept through the town, it destroyed many things in its path, including the Anderson family’s home.
The Andersons, known for their friendly and welcoming nature, suddenly found themselves in a difficult situation. The news of their trouble spread quickly among the people of Elmsworth. A group of neighbours, led by the town’s elders, wasted no time jumping into action to offer support to the Andersons.
Volunteers from all walks of life gathered at the site of the ruined home, armed with tools, materials, and a determination to rebuild not just a house, but a sense of safety and warmth. The local store offered a discount on the necessary supplies, and nearby people provided food and shelter for the Andersons during the rebuilding process. The high school’s sports teams, known for their competitive spirit, took a break from their training to contribute their strength and energy to the rebuilding efforts. The walls of the new home began to rise, brick by brick, with each part showing the care and contribution of the Elmsworth people.
As the days turned into weeks, the spirit of teamwork strengthened. A local artist, inspired by the collective effort, painted a mural (壁画) on a nearby building, which presented the image of the Anderson family surrounded by the faces of their neighbours, showing the love and strength that held them together. The recovery of Elmsworth in the face of disaster became a symbol of hope for other towns facing similar challenges.

The word “manifest” has been chosen as Cambridge Dictionary’s Word of the Year for 2024.
Manifest isn’t a new word; it’s been used since at least the 1400s to mean “clear” or “obvious. ” But as time went on, it had different meanings. Its modern meaning — “to imagine achieving something you want, with the belief that imagining it will make it happen” — was first used in the early 1900s. This is the version (版本) of the word that’s become popular today.
Cambridge Dictionary’s Wendalyn Nicols explained that the Word of the Year is chosen based on three things: how popular the word is during the year, how it relates to important events, and how interesting it is as a word. And “manifest” was certainly popular — the word was looked up over 130, 000 times on the Cambridge Dictionary website in 2024.
The word “manifest” gained traction thanks to celebrities (名人) like singer Dua Lipa, US gymnast Simone Biles, and England soccer player Ollie Watkins, who all said “manifesting” helped them achieve their goals.
“Manifesting is a big thing for me, ” Dua Lipa told Time in April. The 2024 year was a big year for the singer, as she headlined the legendary Glastonbury music festival in England in June. As she stood on the stage, she shared how she had “manifested” the moment. “I’ve written this moment down and wished for it and dreamed it and worked so hard,” she said to the crowd.
But not everyone is a fan of manifesting. Dr. Sander van der Linden, a psychologist from Cambridge University, believes manifesting is just “magical thinking” with no scientific proof that it actually works. “However, it is necessary to understand the difference between the power of positive thinking and moving reality with your mind — the former is healthy, while the latter is an unfounded belief,” he said.
8. What can we infer from paragraph 2?
A. More people tend to dream big. B. Language can change over time.
C. Homan imagination knows no limits. D. The meaning of a word matters most.
9. What does the underlined part “gained traction” in paragraph 4 mean?
A. Got popular. B. Became clear. C. Remained important. D. Looked new.
10. What does Dua Lipa’s experience suggest?
A. She is proud of her confidence. B. She enjoys every moment on stage.
C. She credited her success to manifesting. D. She believed 2024 was a lucky year for singers.
11. What is Dr. Sander van der Linden’s attitude towards manifesting?
A. Doubtful. B. Hopeful. C. Unconcerned. D. Surprised.
D
Companies are used to celebrating addition. Profits, customers and share prices should go up rather than fall. Larger numbers are a measure of career success: managers get promoted by taking on more reports, running higher budgets and earning bigger salaries.
Companies are not always against subtraction (减法) . Though not a welcome one, reducing costs is a necessary part of management, which is often undervalued. The best bosses are those who take things away as well as add them on. That means clearing time for employees to get work done. Meetings are almost always called by bosses, but only some of them are useful. Shopify, an e-commerce company, began the year by subtracting 12,000 meetings from their schedules, and reported a rise in productivity as a result.
Subtraction is not just about removing day-to-day distractions (干扰) . It’s also about taking decisions to kill off projects and products that are going nowhere, and to focus efforts on the most important parts. Peter Drucker, a management theorist, was a supporter of “planned subtraction” , so that resources that are tied up in minor activities are freed for more profitable use. Bosses should, he advised, always ask the same question of every detail of the company: “If we did not do this, would it be any different?”
In The Case for Good Jobs, a new book, Zeynep Ton of MIT Sloan School of Management argues that doing less can often make sense. Costco, a famous American supermarket that believes in the “smart loss of sales”, has purposely limited product choices. That means it can focus its buying power more effectively, forecast demand more accurately and use its employees’ time more productively. “Less” may not sound like a great result for customers, but at some point choice is deeply tiring. When you have spent more time trying to decide what to watch on a streaming service than it takes to go to the cinema and watch the same film twice, few choices seem pretty attractive.
12. Why does the author mention the company Shopify in paragraph 2?
A. To present a fact.
B. To draw a conclusion.
C. To support an opinion.
D. To make a comparison.
13. Which statement does Peter Drucker most likely agree with?
A Companies should quit unpromising tasks.
B Bosses should give up profits for resources.
C. Bosses shouldn’t remove everyday distractions.
D. Companies should focus on some unfinished work.
14. Which of the following measures is regarded as effective “doing less” commercially?
A. Stores give customers more time to shop.
B. Cinemas run only one particular film a day.
C. Streaming websites upload more new movies.
D. Supermarkets offer a limited variety of goods.
15. What is the best title of the text?
A. The best companies celebrate addition.
B. The best bosses know how to subtract work.
C. Companies use numbers to measure success.
D. Smart bosses go against the idea of subtraction.

The word “manifest” has been chosen as Cambridge Dictionary’s Word of the Year for 2024.
Manifest isn’t a new word; it’s been used since at least the 1400s to mean “clear” or “obvious. ” But as time went on, it had different meanings. Its modern meaning — “to imagine achieving something you want, with the belief that imagining it will make it happen” — was first used in the early 1900s. This is the version (版本) of the word that’s become popular today.
Cambridge Dictionary’s Wendalyn Nicols explained that the Word of the Year is chosen based on three things: how popular the word is during the year, how it relates to important events, and how interesting it is as a word. And “manifest” was certainly popular — the word was looked up over 130, 000 times on the Cambridge Dictionary website in 2024.
The word “manifest” gained traction thanks to celebrities (名人) like singer Dua Lipa, US gymnast Simone Biles, and England soccer player Ollie Watkins, who all said “manifesting” helped them achieve their goals.
“Manifesting is a big thing for me, ” Dua Lipa told Time in April. The 2024 year was a big year for the singer, as she headlined the legendary Glastonbury music festival in England in June. As she stood on the stage, she shared how she had “manifested” the moment. “I’ve written this moment down and wished for it and dreamed it and worked so hard,” she said to the crowd.
But not everyone is a fan of manifesting. Dr. Sander van der Linden, a psychologist from Cambridge University, believes manifesting is just “magical thinking” with no scientific proof that it actually works. “However, it is necessary to understand the difference between the power of positive thinking and moving reality with your mind — the former is healthy, while the latter is an unfounded belief,” he said.
8. What can we infer from paragraph 2?
A. More people tend to dream big. B. Language can change over time.
C. Homan imagination knows no limits. D. The meaning of a word matters most.
9. What does the underlined part “gained traction” in paragraph 4 mean?
A. Got popular. B. Became clear. C. Remained important. D. Looked new.
10. What does Dua Lipa’s experience suggest?
A. She is proud of her confidence. B. She enjoys every moment on stage.
C. She credited her success to manifesting. D. She believed 2024 was a lucky year for singers.
11. What is Dr. Sander van der Linden’s attitude towards manifesting?
A. Doubtful. B. Hopeful. C. Unconcerned. D. Surprised.
【答案】8. B 9. A 10. C 11. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要解释了“manifest”一词被选为2024年《剑桥词典》年度词汇的原因,包括其历史含义、现代含义、流行程度以及与名人和重要事件的关联,同时还提及了不同人对“manifesting”现象的看法。
【8题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段“Manifest isn’t a new word; it’s been used since at least the 1400s to mean “clear” or “obvious. ” But as time went on, it had different meanings. Its modern meaning — “to imagine achieving something you want, with the belief that imagining it will make it happen” — was first used in the early 1900s. This is the version (版本) of the word that’s become popular today.(Manifest并不是一个新词;至少从15世纪开始,它就被用来表示“清楚的”或“明显的”。但随着时间的推移,它有了不同的含义。它的现代含义是“想象实现你想要的东西,并相信想象会使它实现”,在20世纪初首次使用。这是这个词今天很流行的版本)”可知,从本段可推断语言会随着时间而改变。故选B项。
【9题详解】
词句猜测题。根据后文“thanks to celebrities (名人) like singer Dua Lipa, US gymnast Simone Biles, and England soccer player Ollie Watkins, who all said “manifesting” helped them achieve their goals.(由于歌手杜瓦·利帕、美国体操运动员西蒙娜·拜尔斯和英格兰足球运动员奥利·沃特金斯等名人,他们都说“manifest”一词帮助他们实现了目标)”可知,由于名人的推广,所以manifest这个词得到了广泛的关注,推知gained traction为“广为人知”之意,和A项意思相近。故选A项。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第二段““Manifesting is a big thing for me, ” Dua Lipa told Time in April. The 2024 year was a big year for the singer, as she headlined the legendary Glastonbury music festival in England in June. As she stood on the stage, she shared how she had “manifested” the moment. “I’ve written this moment down and wished for it and dreamed it and worked so hard,” she said to the crowd.(“manifesting对我来说是件大事,”Dua Lipa在四月接受《时代》杂志采访时表示。2024年对这位歌手来说意义重大,因为她在6月担任了英国传奇格拉斯顿伯里音乐节的头牌艺人。站在舞台上,她分享了自己是如何“manifested”这一时刻的。“我把这个时刻写下来,许下愿望,梦想着它,并为此付出了巨大努力,”她对观众说道)”可知,Dua Lipa把自己的成功归功于manifesting。故选C项。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“But not everyone is a fan of manifesting. Dr. Sander van der Linden, a psychologist from Cambridge University, believes manifesting is just “magical thinking” with no scientific proof that it actually works. “However, it is necessary to understand the difference between the power of positive thinking and moving reality with your mind — the former is healthy, while the latter is an unfounded belief,” he said.(但并不是每个人都喜欢manifesting。剑桥大学的心理学家Sander van der Linden博士认为,manifesting只是“神奇的想法”,没有科学证据证明它确实有效。他说:“然而,有必要了解积极思考的力量和用头脑改变现实之间的区别——前者是健康的,而后者是毫无根据的信念。”)”可知,Sander van der Linden博士认为,manifesting只是“神奇的想法”,没有科学证据证明它确实有效,所以是怀疑的。故选A项。
D
Companies are used to celebrating addition. Profits, customers and share prices should go up rather than fall. Larger numbers are a measure of career success: managers get promoted by taking on more reports, running higher budgets and earning bigger salaries.
Companies are not always against subtraction (减法) . Though not a welcome one, reducing costs is a necessary part of management, which is often undervalued. The best bosses are those who take things away as well as add them on. That means clearing time for employees to get work done. Meetings are almost always called by bosses, but only some of them are useful. Shopify, an e-commerce company, began the year by subtracting 12,000 meetings from their schedules, and reported a rise in productivity as a result.
Subtraction is not just about removing day-to-day distractions (干扰) . It’s also about taking decisions to kill off projects and products that are going nowhere, and to focus efforts on the most important parts. Peter Drucker, a management theorist, was a supporter of “planned subtraction” , so that resources that are tied up in minor activities are freed for more profitable use. Bosses should, he advised, always ask the same question of every detail of the company: “If we did not do this, would it be any different?”
In The Case for Good Jobs, a new book, Zeynep Ton of MIT Sloan School of Management argues that doing less can often make sense. Costco, a famous American supermarket that believes in the “smart loss of sales”, has purposely limited product choices. That means it can focus its buying power more effectively, forecast demand more accurately and use its employees’ time more productively. “Less” may not sound like a great result for customers, but at some point choice is deeply tiring. When you have spent more time trying to decide what to watch on a streaming service than it takes to go to the cinema and watch the same film twice, few choices seem pretty attractive.
12. Why does the author mention the company Shopify in paragraph 2?
A. To present a fact.
B. To draw a conclusion.
C. To support an opinion.
D. To make a comparison.
13. Which statement does Peter Drucker most likely agree with?
A. Companies should quit unpromising tasks.
B. Bosses should give up profits for resources.
C. Bosses shouldn’t remove everyday distractions.
D. Companies should focus on some unfinished work.
14. Which of the following measures is regarded as effective “doing less” commercially?
A. Stores give customers more time to shop.
B. Cinemas run only one particular film a day.
C. Streaming websites upload more new movies.
D. Supermarkets offer a limited variety of goods.
15. What is the best title of the text?
A. The best companies celebrate addition.
B. The best bosses know how to subtract work.
C. Companies use numbers to measure success.
D. Smart bosses go against the idea of subtraction.
【答案】12. C 13. A 14. D 15. B
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇议论文。文章指出企业管理中减法的重要性,优秀老板应删减会议、淘汰无前景项目,如Shopify和Costco的成功案例所示。
【12题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段“Meetings are almost always called by bosses, but only some of them are useful. Shopify, an e-commerce company, began the year by subtracting 12,000 meetings from their schedules, and reported a rise in productivity as a result.(会议几乎总是由老板召集,但只有一部分有用。电子商务公司 Shopify 年初从日程中减去了 12,000 场会议,结果效率有所提高)”可知,作者先提出“部分会议无意义,减少干扰可提升效率”的观点,再以 Shopify的案例说明“减法”的有效性。引用该案例是为了支持前文观点。故选C项。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“Peter Drucker, a management theorist, was a supporter of ‘planned subtraction’, so that resources that are tied up in minor activities are freed for more profitable use.(管理理论家彼得・德鲁克支持‘有计划的减法’,以便将束缚在次要活动中的资源释放出来,用于更有利润的用途)”及“Bosses should, he advised, always ask the same question of every detail of the company: ‘If we did not do this, would it be any different?’(他建议,老板应该总是对公司的每个细节问同一个问题:‘如果我们不做这件事,会有什么不同吗?’)”可知,德鲁克主张放弃无前景的任务,将资源集中在高价值事项上。故选A项。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段“Costco, a famous American supermarket that believes in the ‘smart loss of sales’, has purposely limited product choices. That means it can focus its buying power more effectively, forecast demand more accurately and use its employees’ time more productively.(美国著名超市Costco信奉‘明智的销售损失’,有意限制了产品选择。这意味着它能更有效地集中购买力,更准确地预测需求,并更高效地利用员工时间)”可知,通过减少商品种类提升运营效率是“doing less”的典型案例。故选D项。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文可知,文章第二段明确提出“The best bosses are those who take things away as well as add them on.(最优秀的老板既懂得做加法,也懂得做减法)”,随后通过Shopify、德鲁克理论及Costco的案例,论证“减法管理”对提升效率的重要性。全文围绕“优秀管理者需掌握减法思维”展开,B选项The best bosses know how to subtract work.(最好的老板知道如何减少工作量)与引文中的核心观点直接呼应,可作为最佳标题。故选B项。

In the past, people found ________ difficult ________ ________ enough food.
【答案】 ①. it ②. to ③. get

【详解】考查固定句型。句意:在过去,人们发现获得足够的食物是困难的。原句中“found”后接宾语从句,可转换为“find it +形容词+ to do sth”的固定结构,其中“it”作形式宾语,真正的宾语是后面的不定式短语,形容词“difficult”作宾语补足语,故用“it”作形式宾语,后接“to get”。故填①it;②to;③get。

__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】No one believed the reason that/which the athlete provided for his poor performance.
【解析】
【详解】考查定语从句。句意:没有人相信那位运动员为自己表现不佳所给出的理由。分析句子可知,两个句子中重复的名词是 the reason,它是被修饰的对象,即先行词。确定关系代词:先行词指物,且在从句中作动词 provided 的宾语,因此可以使用关系代词 that 或 which(也可以省略)。合并句子:将第二个句子中的“the reason”去掉,用关系代词替换,置于先行词之后。原句中的固定搭配“provide a reason for...”保持不变。故答案是:No one believed the reason that/which the athlete provided for his poor performance.
