B Growing up as a kid in the UK,I was fascinated by insects.Wanting to protect them,I started building little houses for ants,using little pieces of wood and leaves. I then moved on to making little cups and saucers from silver foil for the magic creatures that I thought lived at the bottom of the garden.When my mother saw my work,she told me that the smaller I made things,the bigger my name would become. As the years went by,my designs became more complicated.And I used many different materials,such as diamond fragments,eyelashes and even spider web threads. I sometimes work for 16 hours a day without breaks,and it takes me up to three months to finish a sculpture.I have to hold my breath during the sculpting process.It isn't actually an easy process-but I can enjoy it once I've finished it. My sculptures have taken me to incredible places.In 2012,I met the queen and gave her a tiny crown on the head of a pin.In 2013,I received my first Guinness World Record for creating the smallest sculpture made by hand.It was a 24-carat gold motorbike that fitted inside a drilled out hair.In 2017,I beat my record with a sculpture of a human fetus (that measured 0.078mm by 0.053mm. One time,a fly landed on a Cinderella carriage sculpture I was working on.The fly's wings blew it away,and it was lost.I was heart-broken.Another time,I accidentally breathed in a microscopic Alice from Alice in Wonderland.Alice is now in Wonderland forever.But it did give me the chance to make an even better one the second time around. The microscopic world has always been my happy place.I've tried to make bigger sculptures,but small is best for me.We need to appreciate the little things in life.Small things can also be mighty,too. 24.What inspired the author to create tiny sculptures? A.His desire for fame. B.His love for insects C.His passion for architecture. D.His dream of setting a record. 25.How does the author think of his sculpting process? A.Creative and fulfilling. B.Competitive and demanding. C.Exhausting but enjoyable. D.Relaxing but time-consuming. 第4页/共11页 CS扫描全能王 3亿人都在用的扫描APP 26.What message does the author intend to convey?

A.From Ants to Crowns:A Micro-Artist's Journey B.16 Hours a day:The Price of Artistic Perfection C.The Function of Microscopic Art:An amazing Tool D.The Future of Microscopic Art:Is It Worth the Effort? C Most of us in the entrepreneurial(企业家的)community are blessed一or cursed -with higher-than-average ambition.Ambitious people strongly desire accomplishments and are willing to take more risks and spend more effort to get them. Overall,this is a positive quality,especially for people trying to build their own businesses.Apparently,if you're more naturally driven to set goals,you are more likely to succeed. Actually,this isn't always the case.In fact,in some cases,extreme ambition may end up doing more harm than good. One major side effect of excessive ambition is the tendency to focus too determinedly on one particular vision or end goal.This is problematic because it affects your ability to adapt to new circumstances,which is vital if you want to be a successful entrepreneur.If a new competitor emerges to threaten your business,you may need to change direction,even if that means not sticking to your original vision. If you have too much ambition,you'll find this hard,if not impossible. Few people are successful when they try to build their first brand.Unfortunately, for the most ambitious entrepreneurs,a failure is seen as disastrous,and impossible to recover from. It's a clear departure from the intended plan toward the intended goal.For people with limited ambition,however,failure is viewed as something closer to reality.Remember,failure is inevitable,and every failure you survive is a learning experience. Ambitious people tend to be more materialistically successful than their non-ambitious counterparts.However,they're only slightly happier than their less-ambitious counterparts and tend to live significantly shorter lives.This implies that even though ambitious people are more likely to achieve conventional "success," such success means nothing for their health and happiness-and if you don't have 第5页/共11页 CS扫描全能王 3亿人都在用的扫描App health and happiness,what else could possibly matter? Clearly,some amount of ambition is good for your motivation.Without any ambition,you wouldn't start your own business,set or achieve goals,and get far in life.But an excess of ambition can also be dangerous,putting you at risk of burnout, stubbornness,and even a shorter life. 28.What does the author think of most entrepreneurs? A.They could work smarter but not harder. B.They are more willing to risk their own lives. C.They are more ambitious than ordinary people. D.They possess more positive qualities than most of us. 29.What does the underlined word"excessive"in Para.4 probably mean? A.Normal. B.Overdone. C.Balanced D.Insufficient. 30.According to the author,which is important to become a successful entrepreneur? A.Holding on to one's original vision. B.Focusing determinedly on a particular goal. C.Avoiding radical change in one's career direction. D.Being flexible and responsive to changing environments. 31.What does the author advise us to do concerning ambition? A.Prioritize health and happiness over material success. B.Avoid taking unnecessary risks when starting a business. C.Follow the example of the most ambitious entrepreneurs. D.Distinguish between conventional success and our life goal. D Chocolates save us from many things,especially emotional distress.They comfort us in times of trouble,calming down a racing heart by channelling happy calories inside us.We all have faith in chocolates to delight us in an instant! Recently,chocolate lovers were heartbroken as scientists claimed that they can become extinct by 2050!But hey,we have some happy news for you.Scientists can still help save chocolates from dying out!If you are not aware as to why scientists made the statement about the death of this wonderful thing,let us tell you the facts. Chocolate trees,whose seeds are used to make chocolate,grow in the tropical plant world and require very specific weather conditions to prosper. Now,fifty percent of the world's cocoa beans come from two countries in West Africa,Cote d'Ivoire and Ghana.Scientists believe that both of these countries will experience a 3.8C temperature increase by 2050 due to global warming, endangering the cacao farms in the rainforests.These farms will then have to be shifted to cooler mountainous areas,which are the natural habitat of wildlife.This will lead to some tough decisions:whether to grow chocolate or save wildlife. 第6页/共11页 CS扫描全能王 3亿人都在用的扫描APp Unfortunately,the crisis of global warming has already had a serious negative impact on cacao farms'harvest,leading to the prices of chocolates skyrocketing. Scientists,however,are trying to find a long-term and eco-friendly solution to this problem!They are modifying the species with gene-editing technology, transforming the seedlings into a species that survives even in drier and warmer climates. According to a report by The Business Insider,in the University of Califomia's new bio-sciences building,tiny green cacao seedlings are lined up in refrigerated greenhouses for a new experiment using CRISPR technology.By controlling plant DNA,this technology is already being used worldwide to make plants tougher and cheaper.In this experiment,scientists will make precise changes to the seedlings' DNA to help cocoa crops survive in warmer and drier climates. 32.What was scientists'recent statement about chocolates? A.They could become a rare treat in the near future. B.They could calm people down a bit in times of crisis. C.They could prevent people from getting heartbroken. D.They could become unavailable in less than 30 years 33.What would happen if the cacao farms were shifted to cooler mountainous areas? A.The rainforests would shrink dramatically B.The quality of cocoa beans would suffer greatly. C.The natural habitat of wildlife there would be ruined. D.The cacao farmers would have a tough time adapting 34.What do we learn about the cacao farms in the crisis of global warming? A.They try to seek help from gene-editing scientists. B.They decide to move to cooler mountainous areas. C.They have suffered a lot due to a decrease in produce. D.They have benefited by raising prices of cocoa beans. 35.What is the last paragraph mainly about? A.A CRISPR experiment to enhance cocoa crops'climate tolerance. B.The history of CRISPR technology and its role in global agriculture C.The impact of climate change on traditional cocoa farming methods. D.How refrigerated greenhouses are used to store cacao seedlings worldwide. 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。 We've all encountered a "know-it-all"-someone who eagerly lectures on any topic,regardless of expertise,often frustrating those who actually know better. 36 第7页/共11页 CS扫描全能王 3亿人都在用的扫描App One explanation is "naive realism",the idea that people naturally believe their view of the world reflects objective truth.In reality,all perceptions are shaped by personal biases ()memories,and emotions,creating a unique perspective for each individual.Yet many fail to recognize this,assuming that anyone who sees things differently is simply wrong.37 Another potential cognitive bias at work is the "illusion (of information adequacy".38.For instance,someone who sees a classmate avoiding sports might assume they're just lazy,without considering other reasons,such as an injury.This illusion leads some to believe they know more than they actually do. 39 Expressing opinions can be a way of establishing superiority and a sense of dominance in social settings.There's also the Dunning-Kruger effect,which is cognitive bias.40 Their lack of insight prevents them from recognizing when others have more knowledge than they do.As a result,they may confidently argue their points,even against experts.Ultimately,a know-it-all's behavior may come from a combination of biases and social needs.Ironically,to become a know-it-all,one must truly know too little. A.This tendency to voice opinions can create tension B.For some,this belief becomes an urge to"correct"others. C.These individuals often feel a responsibility to educate others. D.Some people might also be driven by a nced for status or control. E.People often feel confident in their judgments,even without cnough evidence. F.People with limited knowledge in an area tend to overestimate their knowledge G.But why do some people assume they know more about every subject than anyone? 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，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空 白处的最佳选项。 The school autumn trip finally came,after what seemed like centuries of waiting in anticipation.Jumping off the bus,we all cheered in 41,with the worry 42 hanging over our minds completely replaced by our smiles.
