The reasons why I decide to set up football association are as follows. To begin with, so many students share the common interest of playing football. Besides, with the increasing burden of study, plenty of students hope to find a way to reduce their pressure. Playing football is a good choice. It not only can help to relieve stress, but it also can develop students’ cooperative ability. Last but not least, the FIFA World Cup is coming. The best way to cheer for it is to involve in it.     I hope you can consider my application carefully. Looking forward to your early reply.

Grammar and Vocabulary （每题1分；共20分） Section A Directions: After reading the passage below, fill in the blanks to make the passage coherent and grammatically correct. For the blanks with a given word, fill in each blank with the proper form of the given word; for the other blanks, use one word that best fits each blank. Labubu dolls In recent months, everywhere I go, there’s been one accessory on everyone’s lips and bags. 1 I wanted to grab one myself, the truth is, they are harder to buy than you think. 2 viral products of the past (remember the Stanley craze?), they sell out in seconds just to pop up on resale sites for five times the original price tag. Now let’s get into the history of these popular Labubu dolls. They 3 (originate) in Hong Kong in 2015, a time when designer toys were beginning to capture global attention. 4 (refer) to as elves (小精灵) set them apart from their popular predecessors (Hello Kitty and other plush characters). They came to fruition in a Nordic-inspired picture book that artist Kasing Lung created. After the initial release of the book, the popular toy company Pop Mart created the first collectible collection for sale in 2019, and since then, sales have soared as new collections are released. The Labubu creatures are a part of a tribe perceived as “The monsters,” and other members of the group include Zimomo, Mokoko and more. From collection to collection, each can be seen wearing various outfits, different facial features and fun accessories, due to 5 each drop seems unique. But don’t let the naughty smile make you think Labubus are evil. Lung says they are well-natured little creatures who have nothing but good intentions and 6 they sometimes inevitably end up in a difficulty. Now, 7 makes Labubus so popular, besides the obvious cute charm, is that they are collectibles and hard to get, so it adds to the excitement of the hunt. They also come in blind boxes so the hunt becomes 8 (hard) if you have a particular color or Monster in mind. Because of mystery of the blind boxes, the reveal can be a surprise which is why many fans record their first impression of their creature 9 (capture) the moment. This excitement transcends age groups and communities, with everyone from pop stars to middle school students 10 (wear) the bag charms. It creates a sense of joy and status that you can say, “Yes, I succeeded and found a Labubu.” Section B Directions: Complete the following passage by using the words in the box. Each word can only be used once. Note that there is one word more than you need. A．agreement  B．boosting  C． concentrated  D．custom  E. dominant   F. established G. impossibly  H. loss  I. presented  J. subconsciously  K. throwing How a Hotel Gets Its Signature Scent Six years ago, Atelier Cologne (古龙水) founder Sylvie Ganter was offered a challenge: to create a signature scent for the Majestic, a five-star hotel, in celebration of its 100-year anniversary. She had six years of developing and perfecting fragrances (香水) for her consumers. But for a building? “I was at a (n) 11 where to even start,” she recalls. The first step was 12 herself in the hotel. She stayed there over a long weekend, soaking up every detail, like the history (Hemingway was, famously, a longtime resident), the decor, and the overall aesthetic. It crystallized what had felt like a(n) 13 abstract task, allowing her a hope of how she could capture the spirit of the hotel. Once she 14 the mood she wanted to arouse — chic, elegant, and timeless — she turned her attention to the ingredients. “I designed it like I would have for the skin because that’s what I know,” says Ganter. “And then we adapted it so it could be spread out through air conditioning by making it brighter and less 15 . You want something that smells good in the space, not overwhelming.” Finally, “Musc Imperial” was launched at the Majestic in 2015, and soon after, guests demanded it in perfume form. The hotel requested that it be made into an amenities line (洗护用品系列), ending Bulgari’s 16 position as its sole retailer. “Guests may not pay that much attention to the scent, but, 17 , they’re aware it’s there when they walk into the lobby.” She says, “If you bring home the shower gel, it transports you back to the place where you had a really good time.” Which is precisely the whole point of signature scents for hotels: creating an olfactory (嗅觉的) memory that, when 18 again, can trigger nostalgia, ultimately driving repeat business. The 19 between a hotel’s personality and the signature scent is an important one. When there’s a disconnect, it could potentially lead to disastrous results, thus hurting its brand identity. No one will know for certain how a(n) 20 fragrance will be received, but when done right, it enhances the overall experience. For Ganter, it paid off when she dreamed up “Musc Imperial”. II. Reading Comprehension (21 – 35题，每题1分；36 – 50题，每题2分；共45分) Section A Directions: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context. Before Yuri Gagarin and that first generation of astronauts breached Earth’s atmosphere to start a new era in space, nobody really knew just how humans would fare, either mentally or physically, in low Earth orbit. In those early days, data was collected from probes and a selection of 21 , but until that pioneering generation flew, no one could say how astronauts would react. The medical profession is still researching the 22 of space on the body today, both when in space and the after-effects upon returning to Earth. Of all the medical 23 facing life in space, the most fundamental remains the effects of weightlessness. John Glenn, the first American to orbit the Earth said that he “found weightlessness to be extremely 24 ”. Ironically for Glenn, it wasn’t until an incident two years after returning from space that a more in-depth level of medical inspection was triggered. When Glenn 25 a head injury after a fall in a hotel bathroom, the dizzy spells he was suffering highlighted inner-ear issues he’d sustained while in space. 26 , they raised further questions about his health and how weightlessness had affected it, such as the strain placed on cardiovascular (心血管的) and circulatory systems. Since the 1960s, studies conducted on those who’ve spent time in space have revealed a whole range of medical 27 . One paper revealed that on missions lasting six months or longer, an astronaut will experience bone density loss that is 28 to several decades of ageing. 29 this is one of the reasons why crews on the International Space Station need to exercise for two hours every day. Research has also confirmed changes to vision, a compromised immune system, digestive issues and elevated long-term cancer risks. 30 space flight could also lead to cognitive decline, plus the onset of depression and anxiety. However, while Glenn’s bathroom fall 31 sparked a series of rigorous investigations from ground-based doctors, tracking the health effects of space has moved to the environment that causes them: space itself, and the spacecraft and orbiting platforms where longer-term research can be carried out. In the intervening years, there have been thousands of medical research projects on human health in space. For example, in 1989 two physicians on board Space Shuttle Atlantis (STS-34) 32 to establish a link between cranial (颅骨的) pressure and motion sickness. In 1995, Mir Principal Expedition 18 saw a joint US-Russian medical research project to investigate the effects of weightlessness. And in 2023, members of Expedition 70 on board the International Space Station 33 how weightlessness impacts the neck, shoulders and leg veins. However, regardless of what space has thrown at us then and now, the driving force to overcome any 34 medical problem remains unshaken: our existence as a species beyond the day when Earth’s time is finally done, depends upon it. It’s one thing to assemble the hardware to propel humankind to Mars and 35 beyond the Red Planet; the state of our health when we arrive is another. 21．A．humans B．animals C．insects D．birds 22．A．effects B．causes C．lives D．secretes 23．A．achievements B．challenges C．anticipations D．temptations 24．A．unpleasant B．ridiculous C．impressive D．enjoyable 25．A．created B．made C．obtained D．sustained 26．A．Finally B．Unusually C．Soon D．Later 27．A．achievements B．treatments C．concerns D．experiments 28．A．necessary B．awkward C．equivalent D．reluctant 29．A．Measuring B．Combatting C．Implying D．Discouraging 30．A．Prolonged B．Exploited C．Triggered D．Simulated 31．A．unintentionally B．uncommonly C．unfortunately D．unnecessarily 32．A．applied B．declined C．bothered D．sought 33．A．inquired B．responded C．monitored D．assembled 34．A．illegal B．financial C．potential D．preventive 35．A．immediately B．particularly C．occasionally D．possibly Section B Directions: Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read. A Scientists have discovered what they believe to be a massive underground reservoir of ancient water ice buried beneath the equator of Mars. Layers of frozen water, some more than two miles thick, are thought to lie within the 3,100-mile long Medusae Fossae Formation (MFF), one of Mars’s most geologically intriguing features. Studies of the area first hinted at the presence of mysterious underground deposits in 2007 but their composition was unclear. Now, more than 15 years later, data gathered by the European Space Agency’s Mars Express orbiter appears to confirm that it is frozen water — the largest deposit yet found at the Martian equator. “We’ve explored the MFF again using newer data from Mars Express’s Marsis [Mars Advanced Radar for Subsurface and Ionosphere Sounding instrument, and we found the deposits to be even thicker than we thought,” said Thomas Watters, a senior scientist at the Smithsonian Institution’s Center. “Excitingly, the radar signals match what we expect to see from layered ice and are similar to signals we see from Mars’s polar caps, which we know to be very ice-rich.” Were it liquid, the water would be enough to cover all of Mars in an ocean some 9ft deep. The finding is significant to research into how and why, over billions of years, the planet changed from a once warm, lush waterworld into a frigid desert. Understanding the history of water on Mars will also help to guide studies into the possibility of whether microbial life existed in the once abundant lakes and oceans. It was unclear, until now, whether the vast deposits detected below the surface of the MFF — a once volcanically active region may simply have been ash and dust. However, the new observations by Marsis found the density was too low for that to be the case. “Given how deep it is, if the MFF was simply a giant pile of dust we’d expect it to become compacted under its own weight. This would create something far denser than what we actually see with Marsis,” Andrea Cicchetti, of Italy’s National Institute for Astrophysics, said. The latest finding has implications for the future exploration of Mars. Human missions will be reliant on having water sources in situ both for life support and, once the molecules’ hydrogen and oxygen atoms are separated, for manufacturing rocket fuel. Putting MFF’s water to use is not likely in the short term, however. “Unfortunately these MFF deposits are covered by hundreds of meters of dust, making them inaccessible for at least the next few decades,” Wilson said. 36．What did the 2007 studies find according to the passage? A．Two-mile-thick frozen water was supposed to exist within Mars’s polar caps. B．Scientists recognized Medusae Fossae Formation as one of Mars’s most mysterious features. C．A massive underground reservoir of ancient water ice buried beneath the equator of Mars. D．There were unclear underground deposits at the Martian equator. 37．What can we learn from Thomas Watters’ comment in Paragraph Three? A．Radar signals from Mars Express’s Marsis are strong enough to see through the deposits. B．The deposits below the surface of the MFF were thicker than those from Mars’s polar caps. C．The radar signals from the MFF and those from Mars’s polar caps looked alike. D．Layered ice is common to detect in Mars’s polar cap. 38．What does Paragraph Five mainly talk about? A．the advanced instruments applied in research. B．the future plan about the Mars exploration. C．the further implication about the research. D．another assumption about the huge deposits under the MFF. 39．What’s the best title of the passage? A．The future exploration of Mars is undermined with resource deprivation. B．Abundant water exists beneath the equator of Mars. C．Human missions on Mars should be delayed at present. D．How to make water available on Mars?

A．①③ B．①③④ C．②③④ D．①②③ C There is a locked room in Lego’s corporate museum, in Billund in Denmark, which is called the Vault. It is a large space, filled with shelves that are arranged in chronological order, starting in 1958 and stretching towards the present day. The shelves contain around 10,000 sets of Lego. The Vault is used by the toymaker’s designers as a source of inspiration, but its effect on first-time visitors is what makes the room remarkable. It’s impossible not to seek out sets from your own childhood, not to be drawn back to an earlier version of yourself and, for lots of people, not to well up. Visiting Lego’s Vault is a chance to experience the emotional power of a much-loved brand. Marketing experts have a wide set of taxonomy to describe the ties that bind customers and brands. In a recent review of the literature, Claudio Alvarez, Meredith David and Morris George of Baylor University identify five types of connection that have been the subject of concerted study. The feeling that every marketing manager dreams of eliciting is “brand love”. This goes well beyond a belief in the quality of a firm’s products to include things like emotional attachment, feelings of passion, frequent use, a strong sense of identification and a brand and more. The flip side of brand love is “brand hate”, a reaction that slightly reflects bad experiences with a product, a strong fallback of a brand’s values or simply a rivalry with a loved brand. The three other types of consumer-brand connection identified by Mr Alvarez and his co-authors are “communal relationships”, in which people feel a sense of obligation or concern for a brand (local stores can often fit into this category). “Brand addiction” is often characterized by uncontrollable urges to buy a firm’s products and services and “brand friendliness” is to denote positive feelings that fall somewhere short of love. Some of this taxonomy can find all forces that the idea of gradation of attachment rings true; how people feel about a brand determines their behaviour. Vivek Arwanah of McGill University and his co-authors found that people are more likely to report safety incidents when they believe a brand is well-intentioned than when they do not. The reason? They want to provide feedback that facilitates problem-solving. If managers know what kind of connection a brand is likely to have with its customers, the bridges of a marketing strategy will fall into place. 43．According to the passage, what is the primary purpose of the Lego Vault for the company’s designers? A．To store every set ever made for historical preservation. B．To serve as a source of inspiration for their work. C．To evoke strong emotional responses from visiting tourists. D．To function as a marketing tool to demonstrate the brand’s history. 44．The underlined word “taxonomy” in the second paragraph is closest in meaning to ______. A．strategy B．system C．classification D．authority 45．Which of the following consumer-brand connections is characterized by an irresistible compulsion to spend? A．Brand love. B．Brand hate. C．Brand addiction. D．Communal relationships. 46．Based on the research by Vivek Arwanah, why are customers more likely to report safety issues to a brand they perceive as well-intentioned? A．Because they feel a sense of responsibility and want to solve the problem. B．Because they want to offer constructive feedback that addresses the issue. C．Because they feel a strong emotional attachment and passion for the brand. D．Because they have an uncontrollable urge to facilitate the brand. Section C Directions: Read the following passages. Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box. Each sentence can be used only once. Note that there are two more sentences than you need. Survival of ancient dialects matters Languages are not only tools of communication but also carriers of history, culture, and identity. Last week, the launch of a “last chance” crowdsourcing tool to record a threatened Greek dialect attracted wide attention. 47 Romeyka, which is spoken by an ageing population of a few thousand people in the mountain villages near Turkey’s Black Sea coast, branched off from modern Greek thousands of years ago. It has no written form. 48 But some languages are in even bigger trouble. Currently, there are 350 that have fewer than 50 native speakers and 46 that have just one. A cooperation between Australian and British institutions paints the situation in striking colours, with a language bar chart, illustrating the worsening decline between 1700 and today. Its authors predict that between 50% and 90% of the world’s 7,000 languages will be extinct by 2150. Even now, half of the people on the planet speak just 24 of them. It is one thing to record and document endangered languages. 49 Also, social and economic priorities change, and it is not unknown for minority languages to skip a generation. One such is Manx, which was downgraded from extinct to critically endangered by Unesco after schoolchildren got in touch, asking: “If our language is extinct then what language are we writing in?” A strategy is in place to double the number of Manx speakers on the Isle of Man in a decade. At a time of disastrous environmental change, there are practical reasons for listening in to the wisdom of linguistic communities that might be exceptionally small on their own, but which together speak more than half of the world’s surviving languages. From Sami reindeer herders across the Arctic to Australia’s Indigenous peoples, the ways in which people express themselves embody ancient ways of living in nature. Both a will and a way are needed if they are to survive. 50 A．By simply honoring their existence, linguists play an important role. B．Faced with these alarming numbers, opinions coincide that preservation should be pursued with urgency. C．For linguists, it is a “living bridge” to the ancient Hellenic world, the loss of which would be a blow. D．However, even among linguists themselves, there is a debate about whether they should be preserved at all costs. E．The sort of easy-to-use recording technology employed by Crowdsourcing Romeyka is a gamechanger. F．This event highlighted a broader crisis: nine languages are thought to disappear from daily use each year. III. Summary Writing (10分) 51．Directions: Read the following passage. Summarize the main idea and the main point(s) of the passage in no more than 60 words. Use your own words as far as possible. It's undeniable: Being among the first to try out a new piece of technology is cool. There' s the thrill of doing what has never been done before — the feeling that you're living in the future. And when you're the sole member of your social circle with the latest hot gadget, people stare in fascination. They ask you questions. They see you as the holder of powerful, secret knowledge.  — for a little while, until the next big thing comes along. People tend to underestimate the costs of this temporary coolness, which they pay in more ways than one. Don't fall into the early adopter trap. Don't join the first wave of onsumers who invest in the latest media-hyped hardware; instead, wait and see.   To put it bluntly, early adoption is a bad investment. First, the earliest versions of devices are not only expensive, they are also the most expensive that those devices will ever be. Companies are presumably attempting to recover the cost of production as fast as they can, and they know that there are serious tech-lovers who will pay a great deal to be first. Once the revenues from early adopters’ purchases are safely in their hands, they can cut the price and shift to the next marketing phase: selling the product to everyone else, This is why the cost of the original iPhone dropped about US $200 only eight months after its release, Plus, electronics hardly ever become more expensive because intense competition in the industry puts downward pressure on prices over time. Prices of gadgets will fall shortly after release, and they will likely keep falling. Many new TV models drop significantly in price as little as ten days after hitting the market. Further, electronics rapidly depreciate because they become obsolete so quickly. This means that early adopters pay the maximum price for an item to that does not hold onto its value. The resale price of a cell phone or laptop can drop by fifty percent within just a few months.   Speaking of becoming obsolete, those who are first to leap into a new technology risk wasting money and time on something that will never catch on. Another good reason to resist the early-adoption temptation is that the first version of a product typically has defects that cost a lot in time and frustration. Such problems are so common with new technology that early adopters are basically unpaid beta testers and troubleshooters. Unless this sounds to you like a fun way to spend your time, don't be among the first users. If you wait to learn what the problems are with a new electronic gadget, you can look forward to a smoother experience — or choose a less troublesome product.   ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ IV.

She had six years of developing and perfecting fragrances (香水) for her consumers. But for a building? “I was at a (n) 11 where to even start,” she recalls. The first step was 12 herself in the hotel. She stayed there over a long weekend, soaking up every detail, like the history (Hemingway was, famously, a longtime resident), the decor, and the overall aesthetic. It crystallized what had felt like a(n) 13 abstract task, allowing her a hope of how she could capture the spirit of the hotel. Once she 14 the mood she wanted to arouse — chic, elegant, and timeless — she turned her attention to the ingredients. “I designed it like I would have for the skin because that’s what I know,” says Ganter. “And then we adapted it so it could be spread out through air conditioning by making it brighter and less 15 . You want something that smells good in the space, not overwhelming.” Finally, “Musc Imperial” was launched at the Majestic in 2015, and soon after, guests demanded it in perfume form. The hotel requested that it be made into an amenities line (洗护用品系列), ending Bulgari’s 16 position as its sole retailer. “Guests may not pay that much attention to the scent, but, 17 , they’re aware it’s there when they walk into the lobby.” She says, “If you bring home the shower gel, it transports you back to the place where you had a really good time.” Which is precisely the whole point of signature scents for hotels: creating an olfactory (嗅觉的) memory that, when 18 again, can trigger nostalgia, ultimately driving repeat business. The 19 between a hotel’s personality and the signature scent is an important one. When there’s a disconnect, it could potentially lead to disastrous results, thus hurting its brand identity. No one will know for certain how a(n) 20 fragrance will be received, but when done right, it enhances the overall experience. For Ganter, it paid off when she dreamed up “Musc Imperial”. 【答案】 11．H 12．K 13．G 14．F 15．C 16．E 17．J 18．I 19．A 20．D 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了Atelier Cologne创始人Sylvie Ganter为五星级酒店Majestic设计了一款标志性香氛Musc Imperial，通过捕捉酒店的精神和美学，创造了一种能够唤起客人怀旧情感并推动重复消费的嗅觉体验。 11．考查名词。句意：“我当时完全不知所措，”她回忆道。空处作at的宾语，结合前一句“But for a building?”可推知，H项loss“困惑，不知所措”符合题意，at a loss是固定短语，意为“困惑，不知所措”，表示“我当时完全不知所措”。故选H。 12．考查动词。句意：第一步是让自己沉浸在酒店中。空处作表语，结合下一句的“She stayed there over a long weekend, soaking up every detail”可推知，K项throwing“投入，投身（于）”符合题意，表示“沉浸在酒店中”。故选K。 13．考查副词。句意：这让原本看似不可能的任务变得清晰，让她看到了如何捕捉酒店精神的希望。空处修饰形容词abstract，结合“abstract task”可推知，G项impossibly“不可能地”符合题意，表示“看似不可能的任务”。故选G。 14．考查动词。句意：一旦她确定了想要唤起的情调——时尚、优雅和永恒——她便将注意力转向了原料。空处作谓语，结合“she turned her attention to the ingredients”可推知，F项established“确定”符合题意，表示“确定了想要唤起的情调”。故选F。 15．考查形容词。句意：然后我们对其进行了调整，使其通过空调系统扩散时更轻盈、不那么强烈。空处作宾语补足语，和less构成比较级，结合下一句“You want something that smells good in the space, not overwhelming.”可推知，C项concentrated“密集的，集中的”符合题意，表示“不那么强烈”。故选C。 16．考查形容词。句意：酒店还要求将其制成洗护用品系列，结束了宝格丽作为其唯一零售商的主导地位。空处修饰名词position，结合“as its sole retailer”可推知，E项dominant“主导的”符合题意，表示“唯一零售商的主导地位”。故选E。 17．考查副词。句意：客人可能不会特别注意香氛，但潜意识里，当他们走进大堂时，他们会意识到它的存在。空处修饰后面整个句子，结合“they’re aware it’s there when they walk into the lobby”可推知，J项subconsciously“潜意识地”符合题意，表示“潜意识里，他们会意识到它的存在”。故选J。 18．考查动词。句意：这正是酒店标志性香氛的意义所在：创造一种嗅觉记忆，当再次展现时，可以唤起怀旧之情，最终推动重复消费。此处用了when引导时间状语从句，从句无主语，为省略形式，对主语和be动词同时进行了省略，结合“can trigger nostalgia, ultimately driving repeat business”可推知，I项presented“展现”符合题意，表示“当再次展现时”。故选I。 19．考查名词。句意：酒店个性与标志性香氛之间的契合非常重要。空处作主语，结合下一句中的“When there’s a disconnect”可推知，A项agreement“一致，相合”符合题意，表示“酒店个性与标志性香氛之间的契合”。故选A。 20．考查形容词。句意：没有人能确定一款定制香氛会如何被接受，但如果做得好，它会提升整体体验。空处修饰名词fragrance，结合全文第一句中的“Six years ago, Atelier Cologne (古龙水) founder Sylvie Ganter was offered a challenge: to create a signature scent for the Majestic”可推知，D项custom“定制的，定做的”符合题意，表示“一款定制香氛”。故选D。 II. Reading Comprehension (21 – 35题，每题1分；36 – 50题，每题2分；共45分) Section A Directions: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context. Before Yuri Gagarin and that first generation of astronauts breached Earth’s atmosphere to start a new era in space, nobody really knew just how humans would fare, either mentally or physically, in low Earth orbit. In those early days, data was collected from probes and a selection of 21 , but until that pioneering generation flew, no one could say how astronauts would react. The medical profession is still researching the 22 of space on the body today, both when in space and the after-effects upon returning to Earth. Of all the medical 23 facing life in space, the most fundamental remains the effects of weightlessness. John Glenn, the first American to orbit the Earth said that he “found weightlessness to be extremely 24 ”. Ironically for Glenn, it wasn’t until an incident two years after returning from space that a more in-depth level of medical inspection was triggered. When Glenn 25 a head injury after a fall in a hotel bathroom, the dizzy spells he was suffering highlighted inner-ear issues he’d sustained while in space. 26 , they raised further questions about his health and how weightlessness had affected it, such as the strain placed on cardiovascular (心血管的) and circulatory systems. Since the 1960s, studies conducted on those who’ve spent time in space have revealed a whole range of medical 27 . One paper revealed that on missions lasting six months or longer, an astronaut will experience bone density loss that is 28 to several decades of ageing. 29 this is one of the reasons why crews on the International Space Station need to exercise for two hours every day. Research has also confirmed changes to vision, a compromised immune system, digestive issues and elevated long-term cancer risks. 30 space flight could also lead to cognitive decline, plus the onset of depression and anxiety. However, while Glenn’s bathroom fall 31 sparked a series of rigorous investigations from ground-based doctors, tracking the health effects of space has moved to the environment that causes them: space itself, and the spacecraft and orbiting platforms where longer-term research can be carried out. In the intervening years, there have been thousands of medical research projects on human health in space. For example, in 1989 two physicians on board Space Shuttle Atlantis (STS-34) 32 to establish a link between cranial (颅骨的) pressure and motion sickness. In 1995, Mir Principal Expedition 18 saw a joint US-Russian medical research project to investigate the effects of weightlessness. And in 2023, members of Expedition 70 on board the International Space Station 33 how weightlessness impacts the neck, shoulders and leg veins. However, regardless of what space has thrown at us then and now, the driving force to overcome any 34 medical problem remains unshaken: our existence as a species beyond the day when Earth’s time is finally done, depends upon it. It’s one thing to assemble the hardware to propel humankind to Mars and 35 beyond the Red Planet; the state of our health when we arrive is another. 21．A．humans B．animals C．insects D．birds 22．A．effects B．causes C．lives D．secretes 23．A．achievements B．challenges C．anticipations D．temptations 24．A．unpleasant B．ridiculous C．impressive D．enjoyable 25．A．created B．made C．obtained D．sustained 26．A．Finally B．Unusually C．Soon D．Later 27．A．achievements B．treatments C．concerns D．experiments 28．A．necessary B．awkward C．equivalent D．reluctant 29．A．Measuring B．Combatting C．Implying D．Discouraging 30．A．Prolonged B．Exploited C．Triggered D．Simulated 31．A．unintentionally B．uncommonly C．unfortunately D．unnecessarily 32．A．applied B．declined C．bothered D．sought 33．A．inquired B．responded C．monitored D．assembled 34．A．illegal B．financial C．potential D．preventive 35．A．immediately B．particularly C．occasionally D．possibly 【答案】 21．B 22．A 23．B 24．A 25．D 26．D 27．C 28．C 29．B 30．A 31．A 32．D 33．C 34．C 35．D 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章围绕太空对人体健康的影响展开，介绍了从早期航天时代至今，医学界对太空环境给宇航员身心带来的各类影响的研究历程。 21．考查名词词义辨析。句意：在早期，人们从探测器和一些动物身上收集数据，但在那批先驱者飞上太空之前，没人能说清宇航员会有怎样的反应。A. humans人类；B. animals动物；C. insects昆虫；D. birds鸟类。根据上文“Before Yuri Gagarin and that first generation of astronauts breached Earth’s atmosphere”及下文“no one could say how astronauts would react”可知，早期还未开展人体太空实验，无法直接收集人类数据，只能先以动物为实验对象获取相关信息，昆虫和鸟类的范畴过于狭窄，不符合科研的常规选择。故选B项。 22．考查名词词义辨析。句意：时至今日，医学界仍在研究太空对人体的影响，包括在太空时的影响以及返回地球后的后遗症。A. effects影响；B. causes原因；C. lives生命；D. secretes分泌物。根据下文“both when in space and the after-effects upon returning to Earth”可知，“after-effects”（后遗症）是太空对人体产生的影响之一，由此可判断此处指太空对人体的“影响”。故选A项。 23．考查名词词义辨析。句意：在太空生活面临的所有医学挑战中，最根本的仍是失重带来的影响。A. achievements成就；B. challenges挑战；C. anticipations期待；D. temptations诱惑。根据下文“the effects of weightlessness”以及后文提及的骨密度流失、视力变化等一系列太空相关健康问题可知，太空生活给人体健康带来的是医学层面的“挑战”。故选B项。 24．考查形容词词义辨析。句意：美国首位绕地球飞行的宇航员约翰·格伦说，他“发现失重状态极其令人不适”。A. unpleasant令人不快的；B. ridiculous荒谬的；C. impressive令人印象深刻的；D. enjoyable令人愉快的。根据后文“When Glenn __5__ a head injury after a fall in a hotel bathroom, the dizzy spells he was suffering highlighted inner-ear issues he’d sustained while in space.”可知，格伦返回地球后因摔倒引发内耳问题，说明失重带来负面体验，故选A项。 25．考查动词词义辨析。句意：当格伦在酒店浴室摔倒后头部受伤，他所遭受的眩晕症状凸显了他在太空时就已出现的内耳问题。A. created创造；B. made制造；C. obtained获得；D. sustained遭受。根据下文“a fall in a hotel bathroom”可知，此处指格伦在意外中“遭受”了头部损伤，“sustain injury”为固定搭配，意为“受伤”。故选D项。 26．考查副词词义辨析。句意：后来，这些症状引发了更多关于他健康状况以及失重如何影响其健康的疑问，比如对心血管和循环系统造成的压力。A. Finally最终；B. Unusually不寻常地；C. Soon很快；D. Later后来。根据上文“an incident two years after returning from space”及“highlighted inner-ear issues”可知，先是浴室摔倒引发的眩晕症状凸显了太空留下的内耳问题，“后来”这些症状进一步引发了对其整体健康及失重影响的更多疑问，存在时间上的递进关系。故选D项。 27．考查名词词义辨析。句意：自20世纪60年代以来，针对太空驻留人员的研究揭示了一系列医学隐患。A. achievements成就；B. treatments治疗；C. concerns隐患、担忧；D. experiments实验。根据下文“bone density loss”以及“changes to vision, a compromised immune system”等具体的太空健康问题可知，这些都是太空环境给宇航员带来的医学“隐患”。故选C项。 28．考查形容词词义辨析。句意：一篇论文显示，在为期六个月或更长时间的任务中，宇航员会经历的骨密度流失相当于数十年衰老带来的影响。A. necessary必要的；B. awkward尴尬的；C. equivalent等同的；D. reluctant不情愿的。根据下文“several decades of ageing”可知，此处是将长期太空任务中的骨密度流失程度与数十年衰老的影响作类比，“equivalent to”为固定搭配，意为“等同于”，符合语境。故选C项。 29．考查动词词义辨析。句意：应对这一问题也是国际空间站的宇航员每天需要锻炼两小时的原因之一。A. Measuring测量；B. Combatting应对、对抗；C. Implying暗示；D. Discouraging阻止。根据上文提及的“bone density loss”这一太空健康隐患，以及下文“crews on the International Space Station need to exercise for two hours every day”可知，宇航员每天锻炼是为了“应对”骨密度流失的问题。故选B项。 30．考查形容词词义辨析。句意：长时间的太空飞行还可能导致认知能力下降，以及抑郁和焦虑的出现。A. Prolonged长期的；B. Exploited被利用的；C. Triggered被触发的；D. Simulated模拟的。根据上文“missions lasting six months or longer”提及的长期太空任务，以及下文“cognitive decline, plus the onset of depression and anxiety”这些严重的健康问题可知，此处指“长期的”太空飞行会引发此类问题。故选A项。 31．考查副词词义辨析。句意：然而，尽管格伦的浴室摔倒意外地引发了地面医生的一系列严格调查，但对太空健康影响的追踪已经转移到了产生这些影响的环境中：太空本身，以及可以进行长期研究的航天器和轨道平台。A. unintentionally意外地、无意地；B. uncommonly罕见地；C. unfortunately不幸地；D. unnecessarily不必要地。 根据上文“a fall in a hotel bathroom”可知，格伦的摔倒属于意外事件，并非有意为之，因此是“意外地”触发了后续的医学调查。故选A项。 32．考查动词词义辨析。句意：例如，1989年，亚特兰蒂斯号航天飞机（STS-34）上的两名医生试图建立颅内压力与晕动病之间的联系。A. applied应用；B. declined拒绝；C. bothered打扰；D. sought试图、寻求。根据下文“establish a link between cranial (颅内的) pressure and motion sickness.”可知，这两名医生的行为是为了探究颅内压力和晕动病的关联，“seek to do sth”为固定搭配，意为“试图做某事”，符合科研探索的语境。故选D项。 33．考查动词词义辨析。句意：2023年，国际空间站第70远征队的成员监测了失重对颈部、肩部和腿部静脉的影响。A. inquired询问；B. responded回应；C. monitored监测；D. assembled组装。根据下文“how weightlessness impacts the neck, shoulders and leg veins”可知，要想了解失重对身体部位的具体影响，需要对相关部位进行数据“监测”。故选C项。 34．考查形容词词义辨析。句意：然而，无论过去和现在太空给我们带来了什么，克服任何潜在医学问题的动力都从未动摇：人类作为一个物种，在地球寿命终结后的存续，就取决于此。A. illegal非法的；B. financial财务的；C. potential潜在的；D. preventive预防性的。根据上文“And in 2023, members of Expedition 70 on board the International Space Station __13__  how weightlessness impacts the neck, shoulders and leg veins.”可知，前文提及到各类已知太空健康隐患，且下文提到人类未来星际探索的未知需求，所以和太空相关的医学问题有很多是尚未完全暴露或解决的，属于“潜在的”问题。故选C项。 35．考查副词词义辨析。句意：组装出将人类送上火星乃至可能送上火星以外星球的硬件是一回事；而我们抵达时的健康状况则是另一回事。A. immediately立即；B. particularly尤其；C. occasionally偶尔；D. possibly可能地。根据下文“beyond the Red Planet”可知，目前人类的航天技术还未实现火星之外的星际探索，去往火星以外的星球仍处于设想阶段，因此用“possibly”表示“可能地”，符合客观现实。故选D项。 Section B Directions: Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read. A Scientists have discovered what they believe to be a massive underground reservoir of ancient water ice buried beneath the equator of Mars. Layers of frozen water, some more than two miles thick, are thought to lie within the 3,100-mile long Medusae Fossae Formation (MFF), one of Mars’s most geologically intriguing features. Studies of the area first hinted at the presence of mysterious underground deposits in 2007 but their composition was unclear. Now, more than 15 years later, data gathered by the European Space Agency’s Mars Express orbiter appears to confirm that it is frozen water — the largest deposit yet found at the Martian equator. “We’ve explored the MFF again using newer data from Mars Express’s Marsis [Mars Advanced Radar for Subsurface and Ionosphere Sounding instrument, and we found the deposits to be even thicker than we thought,” said Thomas Watters, a senior scientist at the Smithsonian Institution’s Center. “Excitingly, the radar signals match what we expect to see from layered ice and are similar to signals we see from Mars’s polar caps, which we know to be very ice-rich.” Were it liquid, the water would be enough to cover all of Mars in an ocean some 9ft deep. The finding is significant to research into how and why, over billions of years, the planet changed from a once warm, lush waterworld into a frigid desert. Understanding the history of water on Mars will also help to guide studies into the possibility of whether microbial life existed in the once abundant lakes and oceans. It was unclear, until now, whether the vast deposits detected below the surface of the MFF — a once volcanically active region may simply have been ash and dust. However, the new observations by Marsis found the density was too low for that to be the case. “Given how deep it is, if the MFF was simply a giant pile of dust we’d expect it to become compacted under its own weight. This would create something far denser than what we actually see with Marsis,” Andrea Cicchetti, of Italy’s National Institute for Astrophysics, said. The latest finding has implications for the future exploration of Mars. Human missions will be reliant on having water sources in situ both for life support and, once the molecules’ hydrogen and oxygen atoms are separated, for manufacturing rocket fuel. Putting MFF’s water to use is not likely in the short term, however. “Unfortunately these MFF deposits are covered by hundreds of meters of dust, making them inaccessible for at least the next few decades,” Wilson said. 36．What did the 2007 studies find according to the passage? A．Two-mile-thick frozen water was supposed to exist within Mars’s polar caps. B．Scientists recognized Medusae Fossae Formation as one of Mars’s most mysterious features. C．A massive underground reservoir of ancient water ice buried beneath the equator of Mars. D．There were unclear underground deposits at the Martian equator. 37．What can we learn from Thomas Watters’ comment in Paragraph Three? A．Radar signals from Mars Express’s Marsis are strong enough to see through the deposits. B．The deposits below the surface of the MFF were thicker than those from Mars’s polar caps. C．The radar signals from the MFF and those from Mars’s polar caps looked alike. D．Layered ice is common to detect in Mars’s polar cap. 38．What does Paragraph Five mainly talk about? A．the advanced instruments applied in research. B．the future plan about the Mars exploration. C．the further implication about the research. D．another assumption about the huge deposits under the MFF. 39．What’s the best title of the passage? A．The future exploration of Mars is undermined with resource deprivation. B．Abundant water exists beneath the equator of Mars. C．Human missions on Mars should be delayed at present. D．How to make water available on Mars? 【答案】36．D 37．C 38．D 39．B 【导语】这是一篇说明文，本文主要讲述科学家们发现了火星赤道附近埋藏着大量冰水。 36．细节理解题。根据第二段“Studies of the area first hinted at the presence of mysterious underground deposits in 2007 but their composition was unclear.(2007年，对该地区的研究首次暗示了神秘地下沉积物的存在，但其成分尚不清楚)”可知，2007年的研究发现火星赤道有不清楚的地下沉积物，故选D。 37．细节理解题。根据第三段“Excitingly, the radar signals match what we expect to see from layered ice and are similar to signals we see from Mars’s polar caps, which we know to be very ice-rich.(令人兴奋的是，雷达信号与我们期望从分层冰中看到的信号相匹配，并且与我们从火星极地冰盖中看到的信号相似，我们知道那里富含冰)”可知，来自MFF的雷达信号和来自火星极地冰盖的雷达信号看起来很相似，故选C。 38．主旨大意题。根据第五段“It was unclear, until now, whether the vast deposits detected below the surface of the MFF — a once volcanically active region-may simply have been ash and dust. However, the new observations by Marsis found the density was too low for that to be the case. “Given how deep it is, if the MFF was simply a giant pile of dust we’d expect it to become compacted under its own weight. This would create something far denser than what we actually see with Marsis,” Andrea Cicchetti, of Italy’s National Institute for Astrophysics, said.(直到现在，人们还不清楚MFF（曾经的火山活动区）表面下探测到的大量沉积物是否仅仅是灰烬和灰尘。然而，马西斯号的新观测发现，密度太低，不可能出现这种情况。“考虑到它的深度，如果MFF只是一堆巨大的灰尘，我们预计它会在自身重量的作用下被压缩。意大利国家天体物理研究所的Andrea Cicchetti说：“这将创造出比我们在Marsis上实际看到的密度大得多的东西。”)”可知，本段通过密度分析排除火山灰假说，所以本段主要是关于另一个关于MFF下巨大沉积物的假说，故选D。 39．主旨大意题。根据全文内容，结合第一段“Scientists have discovered what they believe to be a massive underground reservoir of ancient water ice buried beneath the equator of Mars.(科学家们在火星赤道下发现了一个巨大的地下水库，他们认为这是一个古老的水冰)”可知，本文主要讲述科学家们发现了火星赤道附近埋藏着大量冰水。B项“火星赤道下存在着丰富的水”最适合作为标题，故选B。 B Advanced Rechargeable Digital Hearing Aid Technology Only $229！ The new Advanced HearClear HCR3 rechargeable hearing aid combines advanced technology with a low price to provide you with outstanding value. 5 star Reviews!☆☆☆☆☆ Outstanding Product! “This product is outstanding.

(你的大脑被设计成使用双耳协同工作。事实上，研究表明，在嘈杂的环境中使用两个助听器，你的听力可能会提高三倍。)”可知，推荐购买一对助听器的原因是，人类大脑天生更适合双耳协同工作来提高听力效果。故选C项。 41．细节理解题。根据Even Better In Pairs!部分中“Simple. Affordable. Rechargeable Digital Hearing Aid-For Only $229! (简单、实惠、可充电的数字助听器——仅售229美元！)”以及后文“only $229 each when you buy a pair (购买一对时每只仅售229美元)”。由此可知，购买一对助听器的总价为229美元×2=458美元。故选C项。 42．推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中“The HCR3 is pre-programmed for most moderate to significant hearing losses (HCR3已针对大多数中度至重度听力损失进行了预编程)”可知，针对不同听力场景的内置程序，①“Built-in programs for different listening situations (针对不同听力场景的内置程序)”符合特性描述；根据倒数第三段中“The new HearClear HCR3 Rechargeable Digital Hearing Aids features advanced third generation digital technology at an unbelievably affordable Pride! (新款 HearClear HCR3 可充电式数字助听器采用了先进的第三代数字技术，而且价格极其实惠，令人难以置信！)”可知，该助听器采用了先进的第三代数字技术，因此③“Digital sound processing chip (数字声音处理芯片)”是第三代技术的核心组成部分，符合题意；根据倒数第二段中“The HCR3 is pre-programmed for most moderate to significant hearing losses, so you won’t need professional appointments to make costly adjustments. (HCR3 产品已预先针对大多数中度至重度听力损失进行了设置，因此您无需预约专业人员进行昂贵的调整操作。)”可知，HCR3 产品无需预约专业人员进行昂贵的调整操作，④“Simple adjustments without professional help (无需专业帮助即可简单调整)”符合特性描述；根据倒数第二段中“Your new HearClear HCR3 hearing aids work at a fraction of the cost of name-brand hearing aids, and you won’t have to keep changing the batteries! (您的新 HearClear HCR3 耳机的使用成本仅为知名品牌助听器的极小一部分，而且您无需再频繁更换电池！)”可知，该设备无需频繁地更换电池；②“Easy access to changing batteries (方便更换电池的操作方式)”与原文信息不符。B选项“①③④”符合题意，故选B项。 C There is a locked room in Lego’s corporate museum, in Billund in Denmark, which is called the Vault. It is a large space, filled with shelves that are arranged in chronological order, starting in 1958 and stretching towards the present day. The shelves contain around 10,000 sets of Lego. The Vault is used by the toymaker’s designers as a source of inspiration, but its effect on first-time visitors is what makes the room remarkable. It’s impossible not to seek out sets from your own childhood, not to be drawn back to an earlier version of yourself and, for lots of people, not to well up. Visiting Lego’s Vault is a chance to experience the emotional power of a much-loved brand. Marketing experts have a wide set of taxonomy to describe the ties that bind customers and brands. In a recent review of the literature, Claudio Alvarez, Meredith David and Morris George of Baylor University identify five types of connection that have been the subject of concerted study. The feeling that every marketing manager dreams of eliciting is “brand love”. This goes well beyond a belief in the quality of a firm’s products to include things like emotional attachment, feelings of passion, frequent use, a strong sense of identification and a brand and more. The flip side of brand love is “brand hate”, a reaction that slightly reflects bad experiences with a product, a strong fallback of a brand’s values or simply a rivalry with a loved brand. The three other types of consumer-brand connection identified by Mr Alvarez and his co-authors are “communal relationships”, in which people feel a sense of obligation or concern for a brand (local stores can often fit into this category). “Brand addiction” is often characterized by uncontrollable urges to buy a firm’s products and services and “brand friendliness” is to denote positive feelings that fall somewhere short of love. Some of this taxonomy can find all forces that the idea of gradation of attachment rings true; how people feel about a brand determines their behaviour. Vivek Arwanah of McGill University and his co-authors found that people are more likely to report safety incidents when they believe a brand is well-intentioned than when they do not. The reason? They want to provide feedback that facilitates problem-solving. If managers know what kind of connection a brand is likely to have with its customers, the bridges of a marketing strategy will fall into place. 43．According to the passage, what is the primary purpose of the Lego Vault for the company’s designers? A．To store every set ever made for historical preservation. B．To serve as a source of inspiration for their work. C．To evoke strong emotional responses from visiting tourists. D．To function as a marketing tool to demonstrate the brand’s history. 44．The underlined word “taxonomy” in the second paragraph is closest in meaning to ______. A．strategy B．system C．classification D．authority 45．Which of the following consumer-brand connections is characterized by an irresistible compulsion to spend? A．Brand love. B．Brand hate. C．Brand addiction. D．Communal relationships. 46．Based on the research by Vivek Arwanah, why are customers more likely to report safety issues to a brand they perceive as well-intentioned? A．Because they feel a sense of responsibility and want to solve the problem. B．Because they want to offer constructive feedback that addresses the issue. C．Because they feel a strong emotional attachment and passion for the brand. D．Because they have an uncontrollable urge to facilitate the brand. 【答案】43．B 44．C 45．C 46．B 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章通过乐高Vault引发的情感效应，探讨了五种消费者与品牌关系类型，并指出这些情感联系如何影响消费者行为和市场策略。 43．细节理解题。根据第一段中“The Vault is used by the toymaker’s designers as a source of inspiration (Vault被玩具制造商的设计师用作灵感来源)”可知，乐高Vault主要是作为公司设计师工作的灵感来源。故选B项。 44．词句猜测题。根据画线词所在句的下文“In a recent review of the literature, Claudio Alvarez, Meredith David and Morris George of Baylor University identify five types of connection that have been the subject of concerted study. (在贝勒大学近期的一项文献综述中，Claudio Alvarez、Meredith David和Morris George三位学者系统性地归纳了五种经过集中研究的品牌连接类型)”可知，营销专家用taxonomy描述消费者与品牌的连接类型，并具体归纳出五种，因此画线词taxonomy的意思是“分类”，与classification“分类，分级”意思一致。故选C项。 45．细节理解题。根据第四段中““Brand addiction” is often characterized by uncontrollable urges to buy a firm’s products and services (“品牌成瘾”通常表现为对企业产品或服务难以自控的购买冲动)”可知，Brand Addiction“品牌上瘾”的特征是不可抗拒的消费冲动。故选C项。 46．细节理解题。根据第五段中“Vivek Arwanah of McGill University and his co-authors found that people are more likely to report safety incidents when they believe a brand is well-intentioned than when they do not. The reason? They want to provide feedback that facilitates problem-solving. (麦吉尔大学的Vivek Arwanah及其合作研究者发现，相较于不信任品牌的情况，当消费者认为某品牌出于善意时，他们更倾向于报告安全事故。其深层原因在于，消费者希望通过反馈促进问题的解决)”可知，Vivek Arwanah的研究表明，消费者更可能向他们认为善意的品牌报告安全问题是因为希望提供解决问题的建设性反馈。故选B项。 Section C Directions: Read the following passages. Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box. Each sentence can be used only once. Note that there are two more sentences than you need. Survival of ancient dialects matters Languages are not only tools of communication but also carriers of history, culture, and identity. Last week, the launch of a “last chance” crowdsourcing tool to record a threatened Greek dialect attracted wide attention. 47 Romeyka, which is spoken by an ageing population of a few thousand people in the mountain villages near Turkey’s Black Sea coast, branched off from modern Greek thousands of years ago. It has no written form. 48 But some languages are in even bigger trouble. Currently, there are 350 that have fewer than 50 native speakers and 46 that have just one. A cooperation between Australian and British institutions paints the situation in striking colours, with a language bar chart, illustrating the worsening decline between 1700 and today. Its authors predict that between 50% and 90% of the world’s 7,000 languages will be extinct by 2150. Even now, half of the people on the planet speak just 24 of them. It is one thing to record and document endangered languages. 49 Also, social and economic priorities change, and it is not unknown for minority languages to skip a generation. One such is Manx, which was downgraded from extinct to critically endangered by Unesco after schoolchildren got in touch, asking: “If our language is extinct then what language are we writing in?” A strategy is in place to double the number of Manx speakers on the Isle of Man in a decade. At a time of disastrous environmental change, there are practical reasons for listening in to the wisdom of linguistic communities that might be exceptionally small on their own, but which together speak more than half of the world’s surviving languages. From Sami reindeer herders across the Arctic to Australia’s Indigenous peoples, the ways in which people express themselves embody ancient ways of living in nature. Both a will and a way are needed if they are to survive. 50 A．By simply honoring their existence, linguists play an important role. B．Faced with these alarming numbers, opinions coincide that preservation should be pursued with urgency. C．For linguists, it is a “living bridge” to the ancient Hellenic world, the loss of which would be a blow. D．However, even among linguists themselves, there is a debate about whether they should be preserved at all costs. E．The sort of easy-to-use recording technology employed by Crowdsourcing Romeyka is a gamechanger. F．This event highlighted a broader crisis: nine languages are thought to disappear from daily use each year. 【答案】47．F 48．C 49．D 50．A 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，聚焦濒危方言与语言的生存问题，以希腊濒危方言Romeyka为例，引出全球语言快速消失的严峻现状，介绍了语言记录、保护的相关尝试，并指出古老语言承载着历史文化与生态智慧，强调保护濒危语言刻不容缓。 47．根据上文“Languages are not only tools of communication but also carriers of history, culture, and identity. Last week, the launch of a “last chance” crowdsourcing tool to record a threatened Greek dialect attracted wide attention.(语言不仅是沟通的工具，更是历史、文化与身份的载体。上周，一款用于记录濒危希腊方言的“最后机会”众筹工具一经推出，便引发广泛关注)”以及下文具体介绍Romeyka这门濒危方言可知，空格处需承接该事件，点明其背后反映的语言危机。F选项“This event highlighted a broader crisis: nine languages are thought to disappear from daily use each year.(这一事件凸显了一个更广泛的危机：据估计每年有九种语言从日常使用中消失)”既呼应上文事件，又自然引出语言濒危的普遍问题，符合语境。故选F项。 48．根据下文“But some languages are in even bigger trouble.(但有些语言面临的问题更严重)”以及一系列关于语言消失的惊人数据可知，空格处需先评价上文提到的Romeyka的价值。C选项“For linguists, it is a “living bridge” to the ancient Hellenic world, the loss of which would be a blow.(对语言学家来说，它是通往古希腊世界的“活桥梁”，失去它将是一个打击)”强调了Romeyka的重要性，再用“but”转折说明还有语言处境更糟，逻辑通顺，符合语境。故选C项。 49．根据上文“It is one thing to record and document endangered languages.(记录和整理濒危语言是一回事)”以及后文提到少数语言可能出现断代、人们对保护有不同看法可知，空格处需表达对保护的不同态度。D选项“However, even among linguists themselves, there is a debate about whether they should be preserved at all costs.(然而，即使在语言学家内部，也存在是否应不惜一切代价保护它们的争论)”与上文形成转折，指出保护并非毫无争议，符合语境。故选D项。 50．根据上文“Both a will and a way are needed if they are to survive.(这些语言想要生存下去，既需要意愿，也需要方法)” 可知，空格处需要具体说明相关人员在保护中可以发挥的作用。A 选项 “By simply honoring their existence, linguists play an important role.(只要尊重它们的存在，语言学家们就能发挥重要作用)”紧承上文，指出语言学家在语言保护中的重要角色，对前文进行补充和收尾，符合语境。故选 A 项。 III. Summary Writing (10分) 51．Directions: Read the following passage. Summarize the main idea and the main point(s) of the passage in no more than 60 words. Use your own words as far as possible. It's undeniable: Being among the first to try out a new piece of technology is cool. There' s the thrill of doing what has never been done before — the feeling that you're living in the future. And when you're the sole member of your social circle with the latest hot gadget, people stare in fascination. They ask you questions. They see you as the holder of powerful, secret knowledge.  — for a little while, until the next big thing comes along. People tend to underestimate the costs of this temporary coolness, which they pay in more ways than one. Don't fall into the early adopter trap. Don't join the first wave of onsumers who invest in the latest media-hyped hardware; instead, wait and see.   To put it bluntly, early adoption is a bad investment. First, the earliest versions of devices are not only expensive, they are also the most expensive that those devices will ever be. Companies are presumably attempting to recover the cost of production as fast as they can, and they know that there are serious tech-lovers who will pay a great deal to be first. Once the revenues from early adopters’ purchases are safely in their hands, they can cut the price and shift to the next marketing phase: selling the product to everyone else, This is why the cost of the original iPhone dropped about US $200 only eight months after its release, Plus, electronics hardly ever become more expensive because intense competition in the industry puts downward pressure on prices over time. Prices of gadgets will fall shortly after release, and they will likely keep falling. Many new TV models drop significantly in price as little as ten days after hitting the market. Further, electronics rapidly depreciate because they become obsolete so quickly. This means that early adopters pay the maximum price for an item to that does not hold onto its value. The resale price of a cell phone or laptop can drop by fifty percent within just a few months.   Speaking of becoming obsolete, those who are first to leap into a new technology risk wasting money and time on something that will never catch on. Another good reason to resist the early-adoption temptation is that the first version of a product typically has defects that cost a lot in time and frustration. Such problems are so common with new technology that early adopters are basically unpaid beta testers and troubleshooters. Unless this sounds to you like a fun way to spend your time, don't be among the first users. If you wait to learn what the problems are with a new electronic gadget, you can look forward to a smoother experience — or choose a less troublesome product.   ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】Don’t be the first users of the latest electronic equipment. Firstly, the earliest versions of devices are the most expensive. Secondly, the electronics will be out of date rapidly. Thirdly, the first versions of a product are with some defects generally. Therefore, don’t be the first to try out the latest electronic products. 【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章主要论述了虽然成为购买最新的电子产品的第一批人是很酷的，但是考虑到价格昂贵、产品易过时且新品通常有缺陷等因素，购买最新的电子产品是一项糟糕的投资。 【详解】1. 要点摘录 ①Don’t join the first wave of consumers who invest in the latest media-hyped hardware; instead, wait and see. ②First, the earliest versions of devices are not only expensive, they are also the most expensive that those devices will ever be. ③Speaking of becoming obsolete, those who are first to leap into a new technology risk wasting money and time on something that will never catch on. ④Another good reason to resist the early-adoption temptation is that the first version of a product typically has defects that cost a lot in time and frustration. ⑤Unless this sounds to you like a fun way to spend your time, don’t be among the first users. 2.缜密构思 将第1、2两个要点进行重组，将第3、4、5三个要点进行整合。 3.遣词造句 Don’t be the first users of the latest electronic equipment. Firstly, the earliest versions of devices are the most expensive. Secondly, the electronics will be out of date rapidly. Thirdly, the first versions of a product are with some defects generally. Therefore, don’t be the first to try out the latest electronic products. 【点睛】[高分句型1] Don’t be the first users of the latest electronic equipment.(运用了祈使句) [高分句型2] Therefore, don’t be the first to try out the latest electronic products.(运用了不定式作后置定语)。 IV.

Only by continuously collecting and analyzing application cases of 5G technology in the Internet of Things, virtual classrooms and telemedicine can we achieve the dream of a “smart city” one day. 【详解】考查谚语、倒装句和非谓语动词。“不积跬步，无以至千里”可理解为“千里之行始于足下”，通用翻译为：A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step；“只有通过不断收集和分析5G技术在物联网、空中课堂和远程医疗等方面的应用案例”作方式状语，“只有通过……”可only by...表示，“不断收集和分析”译为continuously collect and analyze，用动名词形式continuously collecting and analyzing作介词宾语，“5G技术在物联网、空中课堂和远程医疗等方面的应用案例”译为application cases of 5G technology in the Internet of Things, virtual classrooms and telemedicine，作宾语；“有朝一日我们才能实现“智慧城市”的梦想”是句子主干，主语“我们”用we，“能”用情态动词can，“实现‘智慧城市’的梦想”译为achieve the dream of a “smart city””，在情态动词后谓语动词achieve用原形，时间状语“有朝一日”译为one day；另外，“only+状语”置于句首会引起句子的部分倒装，所以情态动词can需放到主语we的前面。综上，全句译为：One small step at a time leads to a thousand miles. Only by continuously collecting and analyzing application cases of 5G technology in the Internet of Things, virtual classrooms and telemedicine can we achieve the dream of a “smart city” one day.

Labubu dolls In recent months, everywhere I go, there’s been one accessory on everyone’s lips and bags. 1 I wanted to grab one myself, the truth is, they are harder to buy than you think. 2 viral products of the past (remember the Stanley craze?), they sell out in seconds just to pop up on resale sites for five times the original price tag. Now let’s get into the history of these popular Labubu dolls. They 3 (originate) in Hong Kong in 2015, a time when designer toys were beginning to capture global attention. 4 (refer) to as elves (小精灵) set them apart from their popular predecessors (Hello Kitty and other plush characters). They came to fruition in a Nordic-inspired picture book that artist Kasing Lung created. After the initial release of the book, the popular toy company Pop Mart created the first collectible collection for sale in 2019, and since then, sales have soared as new collections are released. The Labubu creatures are a part of a tribe perceived as “The monsters,” and other members of the group include Zimomo, Mokoko and more. From collection to collection, each can be seen wearing various outfits, different facial features and fun accessories, due to 5 each drop seems unique. But don’t let the naughty smile make you think Labubus are evil. Lung says they are well-natured little creatures who have nothing but good intentions and 6 they sometimes inevitably end up in a difficulty. Now, 7 makes Labubus so popular, besides the obvious cute charm, is that they are collectibles and hard to get, so it adds to the excitement of the hunt. They also come in blind boxes so the hunt becomes 8 (hard) if you have a particular color or Monster in mind. Because of mystery of the blind boxes, the reveal can be a surprise which is why many fans record their first impression of their creature 9 (capture) the moment. This excitement transcends age groups and communities, with everyone from pop stars to middle school students 10 (wear) the bag charms. It creates a sense of joy and status that you can say, “Yes, I succeeded and found a Labubu.” Section B Directions: Complete the following passage by using the words in the box.

She had six years of developing and perfecting fragrances (香水) for her consumers. But for a building? “I was at a (n) 11 where to even start,” she recalls. The first step was 12 herself in the hotel. She stayed there over a long weekend, soaking up every detail, like the history (Hemingway was, famously, a longtime resident), the decor, and the overall aesthetic. It crystallized what had felt like a(n) 13 abstract task, allowing her a hope of how she could capture the spirit of the hotel. Once she 14 the mood she wanted to arouse — chic, elegant, and timeless — she turned her attention to the ingredients. “I designed it like I would have for the skin because that’s what I know,” says Ganter. “And then we adapted it so it could be spread out through air conditioning by making it brighter and less 15 . You want something that smells good in the space, not overwhelming.” Finally, “Musc Imperial” was launched at the Majestic in 2015, and soon after, guests demanded it in perfume form. The hotel requested that it be made into an amenities line (洗护用品系列), ending Bulgari’s 16 position as its sole retailer. “Guests may not pay that much attention to the scent, but, 17 , they’re aware it’s there when they walk into the lobby.” She says, “If you bring home the shower gel, it transports you back to the place where you had a really good time.” Which is precisely the whole point of signature scents for hotels: creating an olfactory (嗅觉的) memory that, when 18 again, can trigger nostalgia, ultimately driving repeat business. The 19 between a hotel’s personality and the signature scent is an important one. When there’s a disconnect, it could potentially lead to disastrous results, thus hurting its brand identity. No one will know for certain how a(n) 20 fragrance will be received, but when done right, it enhances the overall experience. For Ganter, it paid off when she dreamed up “Musc Imperial”. II. Reading Comprehension (21 – 35题，每题1分；36 – 50题，每题2分；共45分) Section A Directions: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context. Before Yuri Gagarin and that first generation of astronauts breached Earth’s atmosphere to start a new era in space, nobody really knew just how humans would fare, either mentally or physically, in low Earth orbit. In those early days, data was collected from probes and a selection of 21 , but until that pioneering generation flew, no one could say how astronauts would react. The medical profession is still researching the 22 of space on the body today, both when in space and the after-effects upon returning to Earth. Of all the medical 23 facing life in space, the most fundamental remains the effects of weightlessness. John Glenn, the first American to orbit the Earth said that he “found weightlessness to be extremely 24 ”. Ironically for Glenn, it wasn’t until an incident two years after returning from space that a more in-depth level of medical inspection was triggered. When Glenn 25 a head injury after a fall in a hotel bathroom, the dizzy spells he was suffering highlighted inner-ear issues he’d sustained while in space. 26 , they raised further questions about his health and how weightlessness had affected it, such as the strain placed on cardiovascular (心血管的) and circulatory systems. Since the 1960s, studies conducted on those who’ve spent time in space have revealed a whole range of medical 27 . One paper revealed that on missions lasting six months or longer, an astronaut will experience bone density loss that is 28 to several decades of ageing. 29 this is one of the reasons why crews on the International Space Station need to exercise for two hours every day. Research has also confirmed changes to vision, a compromised immune system, digestive issues and elevated long-term cancer risks. 30 space flight could also lead to cognitive decline, plus the onset of depression and anxiety. However, while Glenn’s bathroom fall 31 sparked a series of rigorous investigations from ground-based doctors, tracking the health effects of space has moved to the environment that causes them: space itself, and the spacecraft and orbiting platforms where longer-term research can be carried out. In the intervening years, there have been thousands of medical research projects on human health in space. For example, in 1989 two physicians on board Space Shuttle Atlantis (STS-34) 32 to establish a link between cranial (颅骨的) pressure and motion sickness. In 1995, Mir Principal Expedition 18 saw a joint US-Russian medical research project to investigate the effects of weightlessness. And in 2023, members of Expedition 70 on board the International Space Station 33 how weightlessness impacts the neck, shoulders and leg veins. However, regardless of what space has thrown at us then and now, the driving force to overcome any 34 medical problem remains unshaken: our existence as a species beyond the day when Earth’s time is finally done, depends upon it. It’s one thing to assemble the hardware to propel humankind to Mars and 35 beyond the Red Planet; the state of our health when we arrive is another. 21．A．humans B．animals C．insects D．birds 22．A．effects B．causes C．lives D．secretes 23．A．achievements B．challenges C．anticipations D．temptations 24．A．unpleasant B．ridiculous C．impressive D．enjoyable 25．A．created B．made C．obtained D．sustained 26．A．Finally B．Unusually C．Soon D．Later 27．A．achievements B．treatments C．concerns D．experiments 28．A．necessary B．awkward C．equivalent D．reluctant 29．A．Measuring B．Combatting C．Implying D．Discouraging 30．A．Prolonged B．Exploited C．Triggered D．Simulated 31．A．unintentionally B．uncommonly C．unfortunately D．unnecessarily 32．A．applied B．declined C．bothered D．sought 33．A．inquired B．responded C．monitored D．assembled 34．A．illegal B．financial C．potential D．preventive 35．A．immediately B．particularly C．occasionally D．possibly Section B Directions: Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read. A Scientists have discovered what they believe to be a massive underground reservoir of ancient water ice buried beneath the equator of Mars. Layers of frozen water, some more than two miles thick, are thought to lie within the 3,100-mile long Medusae Fossae Formation (MFF), one of Mars’s most geologically intriguing features. Studies of the area first hinted at the presence of mysterious underground deposits in 2007 but their composition was unclear. Now, more than 15 years later, data gathered by the European Space Agency’s Mars Express orbiter appears to confirm that it is frozen water — the largest deposit yet found at the Martian equator. “We’ve explored the MFF again using newer data from Mars Express’s Marsis [Mars Advanced Radar for Subsurface and Ionosphere Sounding instrument, and we found the deposits to be even thicker than we thought,” said Thomas Watters, a senior scientist at the Smithsonian Institution’s Center. “Excitingly, the radar signals match what we expect to see from layered ice and are similar to signals we see from Mars’s polar caps, which we know to be very ice-rich.” Were it liquid, the water would be enough to cover all of Mars in an ocean some 9ft deep. The finding is significant to research into how and why, over billions of years, the planet changed from a once warm, lush waterworld into a frigid desert. Understanding the history of water on Mars will also help to guide studies into the possibility of whether microbial life existed in the once abundant lakes and oceans. It was unclear, until now, whether the vast deposits detected below the surface of the MFF — a once volcanically active region may simply have been ash and dust. However, the new observations by Marsis found the density was too low for that to be the case. “Given how deep it is, if the MFF was simply a giant pile of dust we’d expect it to become compacted under its own weight. This would create something far denser than what we actually see with Marsis,” Andrea Cicchetti, of Italy’s National Institute for Astrophysics, said. The latest finding has implications for the future exploration of Mars. Human missions will be reliant on having water sources in situ both for life support and, once the molecules’ hydrogen and oxygen atoms are separated, for manufacturing rocket fuel. Putting MFF’s water to use is not likely in the short term, however. “Unfortunately these MFF deposits are covered by hundreds of meters of dust, making them inaccessible for at least the next few decades,” Wilson said. 36．What did the 2007 studies find according to the passage?

A．①③ B．①③④ C．②③④ D．①②③ C There is a locked room in Lego’s corporate museum, in Billund in Denmark, which is called the Vault. It is a large space, filled with shelves that are arranged in chronological order, starting in 1958 and stretching towards the present day. The shelves contain around 10,000 sets of Lego. The Vault is used by the toymaker’s designers as a source of inspiration, but its effect on first-time visitors is what makes the room remarkable. It’s impossible not to seek out sets from your own childhood, not to be drawn back to an earlier version of yourself and, for lots of people, not to well up. Visiting Lego’s Vault is a chance to experience the emotional power of a much-loved brand. Marketing experts have a wide set of taxonomy to describe the ties that bind customers and brands. In a recent review of the literature, Claudio Alvarez, Meredith David and Morris George of Baylor University identify five types of connection that have been the subject of concerted study. The feeling that every marketing manager dreams of eliciting is “brand love”. This goes well beyond a belief in the quality of a firm’s products to include things like emotional attachment, feelings of passion, frequent use, a strong sense of identification and a brand and more. The flip side of brand love is “brand hate”, a reaction that slightly reflects bad experiences with a product, a strong fallback of a brand’s values or simply a rivalry with a loved brand. The three other types of consumer-brand connection identified by Mr Alvarez and his co-authors are “communal relationships”, in which people feel a sense of obligation or concern for a brand (local stores can often fit into this category). “Brand addiction” is often characterized by uncontrollable urges to buy a firm’s products and services and “brand friendliness” is to denote positive feelings that fall somewhere short of love. Some of this taxonomy can find all forces that the idea of gradation of attachment rings true; how people feel about a brand determines their behaviour. Vivek Arwanah of McGill University and his co-authors found that people are more likely to report safety incidents when they believe a brand is well-intentioned than when they do not. The reason? They want to provide feedback that facilitates problem-solving. If managers know what kind of connection a brand is likely to have with its customers, the bridges of a marketing strategy will fall into place. 43．According to the passage, what is the primary purpose of the Lego Vault for the company’s designers? A．To store every set ever made for historical preservation. B．To serve as a source of inspiration for their work. C．To evoke strong emotional responses from visiting tourists. D．To function as a marketing tool to demonstrate the brand’s history. 44．The underlined word “taxonomy” in the second paragraph is closest in meaning to ______. A．strategy B．system C．classification D．authority 45．Which of the following consumer-brand connections is characterized by an irresistible compulsion to spend? A．Brand love. B．Brand hate. C．Brand addiction. D．Communal relationships. 46．Based on the research by Vivek Arwanah, why are customers more likely to report safety issues to a brand they perceive as well-intentioned? A．Because they feel a sense of responsibility and want to solve the problem. B．Because they want to offer constructive feedback that addresses the issue. C．Because they feel a strong emotional attachment and passion for the brand. D．Because they have an uncontrollable urge to facilitate the brand. Section C Directions: Read the following passages. Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box. Each sentence can be used only once. Note that there are two more sentences than you need. Survival of ancient dialects matters Languages are not only tools of communication but also carriers of history, culture, and identity. Last week, the launch of a “last chance” crowdsourcing tool to record a threatened Greek dialect attracted wide attention. 47 Romeyka, which is spoken by an ageing population of a few thousand people in the mountain villages near Turkey’s Black Sea coast, branched off from modern Greek thousands of years ago. It has no written form. 48 But some languages are in even bigger trouble. Currently, there are 350 that have fewer than 50 native speakers and 46 that have just one. A cooperation between Australian and British institutions paints the situation in striking colours, with a language bar chart, illustrating the worsening decline between 1700 and today. Its authors predict that between 50% and 90% of the world’s 7,000 languages will be extinct by 2150. Even now, half of the people on the planet speak just 24 of them. It is one thing to record and document endangered languages. 49 Also, social and economic priorities change, and it is not unknown for minority languages to skip a generation. One such is Manx, which was downgraded from extinct to critically endangered by Unesco after schoolchildren got in touch, asking: “If our language is extinct then what language are we writing in?” A strategy is in place to double the number of Manx speakers on the Isle of Man in a decade. At a time of disastrous environmental change, there are practical reasons for listening in to the wisdom of linguistic communities that might be exceptionally small on their own, but which together speak more than half of the world’s surviving languages. From Sami reindeer herders across the Arctic to Australia’s Indigenous peoples, the ways in which people express themselves embody ancient ways of living in nature. Both a will and a way are needed if they are to survive. 50 A．By simply honoring their existence, linguists play an important role. B．Faced with these alarming numbers, opinions coincide that preservation should be pursued with urgency. C．For linguists, it is a “living bridge” to the ancient Hellenic world, the loss of which would be a blow. D．However, even among linguists themselves, there is a debate about whether they should be preserved at all costs. E．The sort of easy-to-use recording technology employed by Crowdsourcing Romeyka is a gamechanger. F．This event highlighted a broader crisis: nine languages are thought to disappear from daily use each year. III. Summary Writing (10分) 51．Directions: Read the following passage. Summarize the main idea and the main point(s) of the passage in no more than 60 words. Use your own words as far as possible. It's undeniable: Being among the first to try out a new piece of technology is cool. There' s the thrill of doing what has never been done before — the feeling that you're living in the future. And when you're the sole member of your social circle with the latest hot gadget, people stare in fascination. They ask you questions. They see you as the holder of powerful, secret knowledge.  — for a little while, until the next big thing comes along. People tend to underestimate the costs of this temporary coolness, which they pay in more ways than one. Don't fall into the early adopter trap. Don't join the first wave of onsumers who invest in the latest media-hyped hardware; instead, wait and see.   To put it bluntly, early adoption is a bad investment. First, the earliest versions of devices are not only expensive, they are also the most expensive that those devices will ever be. Companies are presumably attempting to recover the cost of production as fast as they can, and they know that there are serious tech-lovers who will pay a great deal to be first. Once the revenues from early adopters’ purchases are safely in their hands, they can cut the price and shift to the next marketing phase: selling the product to everyone else, This is why the cost of the original iPhone dropped about US $200 only eight months after its release, Plus, electronics hardly ever become more expensive because intense competition in the industry puts downward pressure on prices over time. Prices of gadgets will fall shortly after release, and they will likely keep falling. Many new TV models drop significantly in price as little as ten days after hitting the market. Further, electronics rapidly depreciate because they become obsolete so quickly. This means that early adopters pay the maximum price for an item to that does not hold onto its value. The resale price of a cell phone or laptop can drop by fifty percent within just a few months.   Speaking of becoming obsolete, those who are first to leap into a new technology risk wasting money and time on something that will never catch on. Another good reason to resist the early-adoption temptation is that the first version of a product typically has defects that cost a lot in time and frustration. Such problems are so common with new technology that early adopters are basically unpaid beta testers and troubleshooters. Unless this sounds to you like a fun way to spend your time, don't be among the first users. If you wait to learn what the problems are with a new electronic gadget, you can look forward to a smoother experience — or choose a less troublesome product.   ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ IV.
