But since I started my TEFL (Teaching English as a Foreign Language) journey, I haven’t looked back. It has opened so many doors for me, including working abroad and seeing the world. I knew I wanted to travel, and that TEFL was the way to make that possible by earning an income along the way. So to get started in this career, I got a TEFL certificate online. Over the last four years, I have taught at an Italian summer camp, teaching English in Italy and Los Angeles. This gave me so much experience, and if you are interested in short-term work, there are many TEFL summer camps all over the world. They are prepared to help teachers by paying for travel expenses, accommodation and food, and providing a monthly wage. I made so many friends in the TEFL industry by taking this opportunity. Since then, I have been able to backpack around Southeast Asia by working remotely—teaching my students online. All you need is a laptop and good Wi-Fi! While on my travels, I homeschooled children in Thailand in return for free accommodation, food, and a weekly wage. This career can make travel so accessible. I knew I wanted to give back to a community along the way. This is when I decided to volunteer at a school in Cambodia, again, in return for free accommodation and meals. This was a very different experience from what I was used to, but I believe it has made me a stronger teacher. I still continue to work with my students in Cambodia monthly over the video call. Over the last couple of years, I have grown so much as a teacher, and this is all because I said yes to opportunities that came my way. 24.What does the underlined word “daunting” in paragraph 1 mean? 　　　　　　　　　　　　　 　　　　　　　 A.Exciting.　　B.Scary.

B.Constant dripping wears away the stone. C.When opportunity knocks, open the door. D.A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush. C Engineers in Upstate New York have invented a folded paper device that looks like a decorated art project. But don’t be fooled. This is actually a paper-based battery. No, it doesn’t look like any of those metal batteries running flashlights or smartphones. In these systems, the battery can be printed on a page. The battery’s power consists of living bacteria. Paper electronics are simple to make and inexpensive, notes study leader Seokheun Choi, an engineer at Binghamton University. They need no electrical outlet to recharge. They just need more bacteria, which can be found everywhere—including dirty water. “Most batteries use chemicals to generate electricity. Substituting bacteria can be an advantage,” Choi says. “They are cheap and self-repairing.” What paper-based batteries won’t do is generate much power. They do, however, create enough to run small devices in faraway or dangerous places—such as a battlefield. They might also find use in medicine. For instance, they might power tiny sensors, such as the types used to measure blood sugar. This invention is based on an observation made more than a century ago—that microbes (微生物) produce electricity as they break down food. Scientists refer to the bio-batteries based on this principle as microbial fuel cells(燃料电池). A fuel cell generates electricity like a regular battery. But a regular battery stops producing electricity when its inner chemical reactions stop. A fuel cell uses fuel that can be refilled. In this case, bacteria serve as the fuel. By refilling more microbes, as needed, scientists can keep these fuel cells running. Lab tests have shown that the new battery can produce a current. Now, Choi and his team are looking at ways to increase the power. They’re studying different shapes and materials for the anode and cathode (正负极). They’re also looking for the best ways to combine batteries for more power. The beauty of the paper devices is that you can simply fold them to connect them. And they surely will be a trend in the near future. 28.What makes the paper-based batteries different from other batteries? A.They are mainly used to run smartphones.　　 B.They use bacteria to generate electricity.　　 C.They are used to decorate small devices.　　 D.They take a much shorter time to recharge. 29.What can the paper-based batteries do? A.Power tiny devices. B.Lower blood sugar levels. C.Produce much electricity. D.Change chemicals in the paper. 30.What is the fourth paragraph mainly about? A.The application of the new battery. B.The characteristics of the paper-based batteries. C.The intention to invent the device. D.The working principle of the invention. 31.What is the author’s attitude towards the development of the paper-based batteries? A.Defensive.　　B.Optimistic. C.Doubtful.　　D.Pessimistic. D To help address the elder care challenge, a team of MIT engineers is looking to robots. They have built and tested the Elderly Bodily Assistance Robot, or E-BAR, a mobile robot designed to physically support the elderly and prevent them from falling as they move around their homes. The E-BAR acts as a set of robotic handlebars(把手)that follows a person from behind. A user can walk independently or lean on the robot’s arms for support. The robot can support the person’s full weight, lifting them from sitting to standing and the other way round. And the arms of the robot can support them by rapidly inflating(使充气)side airbags if they begin to fall. With their design, the researchers hope to prevent falls, which today are the leading cause of injury in adults who are 65 and older. “Many older adults don’t realize the risk of falls and refuse to use walking sticks, which are inconvenient, while others overestimate the risk and may not do exercise, leading to poor mobility,” says Harry Asada, the Ford Professor of Engineering at MIT. “Our aim is to provide older adults having the balance problem with robotic handlebars for holding their body. The handlebars can go anywhere and provide support anytime, whenever they need it,” Asada says. “Elder care conditions can change every few weeks or months. We’d like to provide continuous support as a person’s disability or mobility changes with age.” At present, the robot is run by remote control. In the future, the team plans to improve the robot’s functionality, allowing it to autonomously follow and physically help a user. “I think elder care is the next great challenge,” says E-BAR designer Roberto Bolli. “All the data points to a shortage of caregivers, a sharp increase in the elderly population, and a strong desire for elderly people to age in place. We see it not only as an unexplored field in America, but also a naturally interesting challenge for robots.” 32.How does the E-BAR respond if a user begins to fall? A.It calls a caregiver. B.It sounds an alarm. C.It blows up the airbags. D.It reaches out the handlebars. 33.What’s the feature of the E-BAR Asada stresses? A.The affordable price.　　B.The flexible material. C.The novel appearance.　　D.The general applicability. 34.What message does Roberto Bolli deliver in the last paragraph? A.The healthcare system needs to be improved. B.Social developments change with the times. C.There will possibly be a huge market for the E-BAR. D.More research is required to invent robots like the E-BAR. 35.What can be the best title for the text? A.The Role of Robots in Future Life B.A Robotic Solution to the Elderly Support Problem C.Ways to Improve Elderly People’s Mobility D.The Challenges of Elder Care in Modern Society 第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分) 阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Most smartphones allow you to run location-sharing software that uses the phone’s GPS capability to let friends and family know your exact location. There are lots of great uses for this technology.　36　 So make sure you’re permitted to use an app or service, and pay attention to how you are using it. Here are some important points you may find helpful.  Choose what’s best for you. Some location-sharing services are games that let you give a shout-out when you’ve turned up at a particular spot. 　37　 Still others continue to share your location until you change the setting. Be sure you know exactly how your service shares your location.  Know who your friends are. 　38　 This means people can search to see if you’re online and add you as a friend. It’s important to remember that sharing your location with people you’ve never met in real life is risky, so you should carefully manage friend requests and share your location only with people you know and trust.  　39　 Some services automatically stop sending your location after a period of time, but others will send it forever—until you stop it. Review your contact list periodically and delete anyone to whom you no longer feel comfortable revealing your location.  Update parents. Location-based services are a great way for teens to let parents know where they are without having to call or text. 　40　 If you’re heading home late at night, you can also use a service like Glympse to share your location.  A.Check back often. B.Keep sending your location. C.However, these services are not for all children. D.With its help, you can easily share your location with them. E.These services ease worries so they don’t have to follow your every move. F.Others show where you are all the time or for a period of time you set. G.Some location services operate like Facebook, where you can send and accept friend requests. 36.　　　 37.　　　 38.　　　 39.　　　 40.　　　  第三部分　语言运用(共两节,满分30分) 第一节(共15小题;每小题1分,满分15分) 阅读下面短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 When Dao Hieu Phong first had the idea for Otto, an AI-powered waste-sorting robot, he didn’t expect it would lead him to become one of the winners this year.

Seeing the impact of the disease firsthand, Hemesh awakened to the seriousness of the situation. One night, Hemesh walked into the kitchen only to discover that his grandmother had left the gas stove (炉) on after making tea. Shocked by the dangerous consequences Alzheimer’s disease could bring about, he couldn’t help but wonder what might have happened if he hadn’t been there. Hemesh’s worries increased as he observed his grandmother’s behavior. She would wake up in the early hours of the morning, believing she was on a train, and wander outside aimlessly,which could potentially lead her to get lost or put herself in risky situations. Determined to make a difference, Hemesh was committed to extensive research on Alzheimer’s disease and its symptomatic (症状的) progression. Through his studies, he discovered that wandering was a common problem among dementia patients, especially those with Alzheimer’s disease. Inspired by his newfound knowledge and fueled by his desire to help, Hemesh told his family, “I can’t just stand by and watch this happen. I need to do something to keep Grandma safe. I think I have an idea that might help not just her, but others in similar situations.” With firm determination, he developed an inventive answer to the wandering dilemma, a device he called the Guardian Companion. It was a wearable device, similar to a smartwatch, specifically designed for Alzheimer’s patients.

They do, however, create enough to run small devices in faraway or dangerous places—such as a battlefield.(纸质电池不能产生太多的能量。然而,它们确实能创造出足够的能量来在遥远或危险的地方,比如战场,运行小型设备)”可知,纸质电池能为微型设备提供动力。故选A。 30.D　主旨大意题。根据第四段第一句“这项发明基于一个多世纪以前的一项观察——微生物分解食物的时候会产生电”、第三句“燃料电池产生电的方式类似于普通电池”和最后三句“燃料电池所使用的燃料是可以再填充的。在这种情况下,细菌充当燃料。根据需要,科学家们可以通过再填充更多的微生物来保持这些燃料电池的运转”可知该段介绍了生物电池的工作原理。故选D。 31.B　推理判断题。根据最后一段最后两句提到的“纸质设备的好处在于你可以简单地折叠它们以进行连接。在不久的将来,它们肯定会成为一种趋势”可推知,作者对纸质电池的发展持积极的态度。故选B。 D 　　语篇解读　本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了麻省理工学院的工程师团队研发的一款机器人,该机器人可为老年人的活动提供支撑并预防他们跌倒。 32.C　细节理解题。根据第二段最后一句“And the arms of the robot can support them by rapidly inflating side airbags if they begin to fall.”可知,当使用者要跌倒时,E-BAR会迅速给侧面的安全气囊充气来提供支撑。故选C。 33.D　细节理解题。根据第四段中Asada的话“The handlebars can go anywhere and provide support anytime, whenever they need it”以及“We'd like to provide continuous support as a person's disability or mobility changes with age.”可知,Asada强调的E-BAR的特点是其具有广泛的适用性,能够随时随地提供支持,并根据使用者的身体状况变化持续提供帮助。故选D。 34.C　推理判断题。根据最后一段Roberto Bolli的话“所有数据都表明护理人员短缺、老年人口激增,且老年人强烈希望就地养老。我们认为,这不仅是美国未被充分开发的领域,对机器人而言,也是一个自然而然有趣的挑战”可知,E-BAR存在巨大的市场潜力。故选C。 35.B　主旨大意题。文章围绕麻省理工学院研发的E-BAR机器人展开,介绍了其解决老年人支撑问题的功能、研发意义及未来规划,核心是这款机器人为老年人提供支撑,即从机器人角度解决老年人的支撑问题。故选B。 第二节 　　语篇解读　这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了如何正确和安全地使用手机定位功能。 36.C　上文提到手机定位技术很有用,下文讲到,所以要确保你被允许使用某个应用程序或服务,并注意如何使用。C项“然而,这些服务并不适用于所有孩子”符合语境,故选C。 37.F　上文提到,有些位置共享服务是当你出现在某个特定地点时,让你大声喊出来的游戏。下文提到,还有一些会持续分享你的位置,直到你改变设置。F项“其他的则一直显示你的位置,或在你设定的时间段内显示你所处的位置”也是关于位置分享的内容,符合语境,且F项中的Others与上下文中的Some和Still others呼应。故选F。 38.G　下文讲到,这意味着人们可以通过搜索查看你是否在线,并添加你为好友。G 项“有些定位服务像Facebook一样运行,在这些服务里,你可以发送并接受好友请求”能够引起下文,符合语境。故选G。 39.A　根据文章的结构可知,本空为本段的主旨句。本段主要说的是一些定位服务在一段时间以后会自动停止发送你的位置,而另一些总是不停地发送你的位置,直到你关闭它,因此你需要经常查看。A项“经常查看”适合作本段的主旨句。故选A。 40.E　上文提到,基于位置的服务是一种青少年不用打电话或发短信就让父母知道他们在哪里的好方式。由此可知,本段主要讲定位服务在青少年和父母之间的应用。E项“这些服务可以缓解担忧,这样他们就不必跟踪你的一举一动了”符合语境。故选E。本题易误选D项,D项中的its与前文的Location-based services在数上不对应,故排除。 第三部分　语言运用 第一节 　　语篇解读　本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了学生Dao Hieu Phong为解决以前他所在学校垃圾管理不善的问题,发明了人工智能驱动的垃圾分类机器人Otto的经历。 41.D　根据下文可知,发明机器人Otto是为了解决之前学校垃圾分类管理不当的问题,所以此处指改善(improving)之前学校的垃圾管理状况。A.评估;B.确认;C.定义。故选D。 42.B　根据句首的Despite反映的让步逻辑关系可知,尽管开展了无数次(环保)意识(awareness)宣传活动,但同学们还是会误用分类垃圾桶。A.安全;C.慈善;D.选举。故选B。 43.B　根据上文谈到的同学们仍误用分类垃圾桶的问题,以及空后的“something more creative, engaging”可知,需要一种新的方法(approach)来帮助同学们养成垃圾分类的习惯。A.预算;C.标准;D.材料。故选B。 44.C　结合常识可知,这种新方法需要更有创意、更具吸引力,且更有效(effective)地解决垃圾分类问题。三个形容词并列,均描述新方法的特点。A.美丽的;B.盈利的;D.负担得起的。故选C。 45.A　上文提到同学们误用分类垃圾桶的问题,并提到需要找到新方法的想法,这种认知(realization)促使了机器人Otto的创造。B.羞愧;C.名声;D.冲突。故选A。 46.C　根据下文“a robot attached to the sorting bins that automatically opens the correct lid after...the type of waste”可知,这个机器人的设计理念很简单(simple):附着在分类垃圾桶上,识别出垃圾类型后自动打开对应的盖子。A.有趣的;B.抽象的;D.至关重要的。故选C。 47.D　结合机器人的功能可知,它需要先识别(identifying)垃圾类型,才能打开对应的垃圾桶盖子。A.生产;B.改变;C.收集。故选D。 48.A　根据下文“I had no prior...with robotics and machine learning”以及“engineering and building a robot from the ground up was no easy...”可知,Dao Hieu Phong之前没有相关经验,所以研发机器人对他来说是进入了陌生的(unfamiliar)领域。B.不真实的;C.不安全的;D.令人不愉快的。故选A。 49.C　根据上文“In the first week, I built dozens of circuits”可知,一周内搭建了很多电路,必然会把卧室弄得一团糟(mess)。A.研究;B.展示;D.观点。故选C。 50.C　根据下文“engineering and building a robot from the ground up was no easy...”可知,他之前没有机器人技术和机器学习方面的经验(experience)。A.麻烦;B.互动;D.合作。故选C。 51.B　结合上文提到的他没有相关经验可知,从零开始设计和制造机器人并非易事(task)。A.游戏;C.选择;D.测试。故选B。 52.D　根据上文“building a robot from the ground up”以及下文“Still, we needed upgrades”可知,他在一个月内成功制造(build)出了第一个Otto机器人。A.操作;B.观察;C.研究。故选D。 53.A　根据第一段中的“it would lead him to become one of the winners this year”以及“he stood out among the applicants”可知,他的决心最终得到了回报(paid off)。B.回来;C.崩溃;D.用完。故选A。 54.B　根据上文“I have always dreamed of becoming a great inventor”可知,此处指要发明(invent)东西,必须展望未来,敢于涉足无人涉足之地。A.自愿做;C.奋斗;D.咨询。故选B。 55.A　这里指现在是最好的追求(pursue)自己的梦想的时候。B.忽视;C.考虑;D.放弃。故选A。 第二节 　　语篇解读　这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了黄山风景区凭借科技应用,被评为2023年国家旅游科技示范园区,并详细介绍了其科技赋能的具体举措、成效及未来规划。 56.as　考查介词。句意:作为该地区唯一入选的景点,位于安徽省黄山市的黄山风景区被认定为2023年国家旅游科技示范园区。be recognized as为固定搭配,意为“被认为是……”,故填as。 57.innovation　考查名词。句意:近年来,该地区在技术创新方面进行了投资,这导致了环境管理、服务质量以及科学知识的引入等方面的改进。空前为形容词technological,此处应用名词作介词in的宾语,此处表示“技术创新”这一抽象概念,故填innovation。 58.which　考查定语从句的引导词。空处引导非限制性定语从句,先行词为前面整个主句,关系词在从句中作主语,故填which。 59.and　考查连词。environmental management、 service quality和the introduction of scientific knowledge为并列关系,应用并列连词and连接,故填and。 60.hugely　考查副词。句意:据说资源保护从智能技术中受益匪浅。此处应用副词修饰动词benefited,故填hugely。 61.bringing　考查v.-ing形式。句意:黄山风景区通过引入人工智能驱动的游客流量预警系统,在管理和服务方面发生了巨大变化。空前为介词by,此处应用动名词作宾语,故填bringing。 62.advanced　考查形容词。句意:该地区还利用了先进技术。此处应用形容词修饰名词technologies,意为“先进的”,故填advanced。 63.tasks　考查名词复数。句意:例如,他们将无人机用于执行任务。task为可数名词,且空前无限定词,所以这里用复数形式。故填tasks。 64.to manage　考查动词不定式。句意:展望未来,人们相信黄山风景区致力于利用技术来管理和改善整个游客体验。此处应用动词不定式作目的状语,故填to manage。 65.is expected　考查时态、语态和主谓一致。句意:总而言之,黄山风景区对技术发展的投入有望影响其未来,并确保提供一流的旅游服务。主语“the Huangshan Scenic Area's commitment”与expect之间为被动关系,应用被动语态;此处是在陈述客观情况,用一般现在时;主语为单数概念,故填is expected。 第四部分　写作 第一节 One possible version: Good morning, everyone!  The topic of my speech is “Transportation in the Future”. In the future, the flying car will be widely used in our daily life. Not only is it user-friendly, but it can also help save time. However, every coin has two sides. The flying car is no exception. For example, some people may complain about the noise it makes. In my opinion, technology is just a tool. We should improve related laws and let it serve our life better. This is the end of my speech. Thank you for listening. 第二节 One possible version: As Anne put on the Guardian Companion,Hemesh explained how it worked. He reassured her that it would help keep her safe. With a mixture of curiosity and skepticism, Anne agreed to give it a try. The device fit comfortably on her wrist. Hemesh walked his grandmother through the features, showing her how to use the panic button. Anne's eyes lit up with a glimmer of hope, and for the first time since her diagnosis, she felt a sense of regained independence. In the next few weeks, the device made a difference to Anne and her family. Not only did it provide a sense of security for Anne, but it also relieved the constant worries for her loved ones. The device brought peace of mind to the entire family, making them know that Anne was protected even when they couldn't be by her side. Hemesh's creation had truly transformed dementia care, and he found himself on a new mission to make the device accessible to as many people as possible, ensuring that no one had to face the challenges of Alzheimer's disease alone. 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ UNIT 2 LOOKING INTO THE FUTURE 第一节 听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段对话后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对话读两遍。 【Text 1】 M: Hi, Jones!
