Grammar and vocabulary Section A (10分) 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. Do women make for better endurance athletes than men? You only need to think of any marathon you’ve watched to assume that men tend to outperform women in sport. But an interesting recent review 1 (publish) in the journal Sports Medicine has triggered the discussion. It highlighted that the male-female performance gap in ultra-endurance competitions (events typically more than six hours) is as low as 4 percent, 2 it’s around 10 percent in traditional endurance sport. And the difference seems to reduce the longer the event becomes, to the point that women even outperform men when 3 comes to events like ultra-distance swimming. Just look at the finishing times for the 45.8 km Manhattan Island marathon swim. On average over the past 30 years, the best women 4 (be) 12 to 14 percent faster than the best men. There are lots of theories as to 5 women might make better ultra-endurance athletes. If we look at the physiology, men tend 6 (have) more type II muscle fibers, which are good for high power output sports such as sprinting (短跑). Women have more type I muscle fibers, which produce less force but are more resistant to exhaustion — ideal for ultra-endurance events. Another theory is that women are better than men at burning fat for fuel and so they have spare essential carbohydrate (碳水化合物) stores. This would mean they’re 7 (likely) to hit ‘the wall’ in a race. Other studies show that women are more likely to keep a consistent pace, 8 going too hard too soon.     Sports psychologists have also suggested that women are generally better at bearing pain, reframing feelings such as exhaustion and enjoying the process rather than worrying about the outcome, all of 9 might lead to a better performance. As persuasive as these theories are, it’s difficult to be certain. Ultra-endurance events are niche (小众项目) and the small numbers of women 10 (participate) make it challenging to draw conclusions, and it’s rare to find direct comparisons with men. Hopefully this will change over time. 【答案】 1．published 2．while 3．it 4．have been 5．why 6．to have 7．less likely 8．instead of/rather than 9．which 10．participating 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要探讨超耐力运动中女性表现不输甚至优于男性的现象，分析生理、体能及心理等方面的原因，也指出研究存在的局限性。 1．考查非谓语动词。句意：但最近发表在《运动医学》期刊上的一篇有趣的综述引发了这一讨论。此处为非谓语动词作定语，a review与publish为被动关系，用过去分词published作后置定语。故填published。 2．考查连词。句意：该综述强调，在超耐力比赛（通常耗时六小时以上的赛事）中，男女选手的成绩差距低至4%，而在传统耐力运动中这一差距约为10%。此处表前后两种情况的对比，用连词while，意为“然而”。故填while。 3．考查代词。句意：而且赛事时长越长，这一差距似乎就越小，以至于在超远距离游泳这类赛事中，女性的表现甚至优于男性。此处为固定句型when it comes to...，意为“当谈到……，涉及……时”，用代词it。故填it。 4．考查动词时态和主谓一致。句意：在过去30年里，平均而言，女子最佳选手的成绩比男子最佳选手快12%到14%。根据时间状语over the past 30 years可知，此处强调从过去持续到现在的情况，用现在完成时，主语the best women为复数，助动词用have。故填have been。 5．考查宾语从句。句意：关于为何女性可能成为更优秀的超耐力运动员，有很多相关理论。此处引导宾语从句，作as to的宾语，从句中不缺主语和宾语，但句意不完整，结合句意，此处缺少原因状语，表“为什么”，用连接副词why。故填why。 6．考查非谓语动词。句意：从生理结构来看，男性往往拥有更多的II型肌纤维，这类肌纤维适合短跑等高强度爆发力的运动。此处为固定搭配tend to do sth.，意为“往往会做某事，倾向于做某事”，用动词不定式to have。故填to have。 7．考查形容词比较级。句意：这意味着她们在比赛中更不容易遭遇“撞墙期”。根据前文女性更擅长以脂肪为能量来源，保留碳水化合物储备的内容可知，此处表“更不可能的”，用likely的比较级less likely。故填less likely。 8．考查固定搭配。句意：其他研究表明，女性更有可能保持稳定的配速，而不会一开始就用力过猛。结合句意，此处表“而不是”，后接动名词going，用instead of/rather than。故填instead of/ rather than。 9．考查定语从句。句意：运动心理学家还表示，女性通常更能忍受疼痛，能重新看待疲惫等感受，更享受过程而非担忧结果，这些因素都可能让她们取得更好的成绩。此处引导非限制性定语从句，先行词为前面整个句子提到的内容，关系词在从句中作介词of的宾语，用关系代词which。故填which。 10．考查非谓语动词。句意：超耐力赛事属于小众项目，参与的女性人数较少，这使得得出结论颇具难度，也很难找到与男性的直接对比数据。此处为非谓语动词作定语，women与participate为主动关系，用现在分词participating作后置定语。故填participating。 Section B (10分) Directions: Fill in each blank with a proper word chosen from the box. Each word can be used only once. Note that there is one word more than you need. A．identifying  B．exploiting  C． interventions  D．biologically  E. statistically  F. randomized   G. linked  H. regulating    I. trial   J. average  K. clinical New Research Links Daily Multivitamins to Slower Biological Aging Epigenetic (后成的；外遗传的) clocks estimate biological aging based on tiny changes in our DNA．These clocks look at specific sites in our DNA 11 gene expression and change naturally as we get older, helping track with mortality and the pace of aging. “There is a lot of interest today in 12 ways to not just live longer, but to live better,” said Dr. Howard Sesso, a researcher at Brigham and Women’s Hospital and Harvard Medical School. “It was exciting to see benefits of a multivitamin 13 accessible, safe 14 with markers of biological aging. This study opens the door to learning more about that contribute to healthier, higher-quality aging.” For their research, Dr. Sesso and his colleagues used data from the well-established Cocoa Supplement Multivitamins Outcomes Study (COSMOS). They analyzed DNA methylation data from blood samples of 98 randomly selected healthy participants with a(n) 15 chronological age of 70. The participants were 16 to take a daily cocoa extract and multivitamin; daily cocoa extract and placebo; placebo and multivitamin; or placebos only. Samples were analyzed for changes in five epigenetic clocks from the start of the 17 and at the end of the first and second years. Compared to the placebo only group, people in the multivitamin group had slowing in all five epigenetic clocks, including 18 clocks that are predictive of mortality. The changes equated to about four months less biological aging over the course of two years. Additionally, people who were 19 older than their actual age at the start of the trial benefited the most. “We plan to do follow-up research to determine if the slowing of biological aging — observed through these five epigenetic clocks, and additional or new ones — persists after the trial ends,” said Dr. Yanbin Dong, a researcher at Augusta University. “A lot of people take a multivitamin without necessarily knowing any benefits from taking it, so the more we can learn about its potential health benefits, the better,” Dr. Sesso added. “Within COSMOS, we are fortunate and excited to build upon a rich resource of biomarker data to test how two interventions may improve biological aging and reduce age-related 20 outcomes.” 【答案】 11．H 12．A 13．G 14．C 15．J 16．F 17．I 18．E 19．D 20．K 【导语】本篇围绕一项全新研究展开，介绍每日服用复合维生素与生物衰老速度减缓之间的关联，依托科学实验数据与表观遗传时钟展开论述，侧重考查语境词义辨析、词性搭配与非谓语、形容词、副词等语法运用。 11．考查非谓语动词。句意：这些时钟聚焦DNA中的特定位点，调控基因表达，并会随着年龄增长自然发生变化，有助于追踪死亡率和衰老速度。此处表示“调节；管控”，应选regulating，现在分词作后置定语。 12．考查非谓语动词。句意：如今人们十分热衷于找出多种方式，不只是为了延长寿命，更是为了提升生活质量。此处表示“识别；找出”，应选identifying，介词in后接动名词形式。 13．考查过去分词。句意：看到复合维生素这种容易获取、安全的干预措施与生物衰老标志物存在关联，令人振奋。此处表示“联系；相关联”，应选linked，过去分词作后置定语。 14．考查名词复数。句意：看到复合维生素这种容易获取、安全的干预措施与生物衰老标志物存在关联，令人振奋。此处表示“干预措施”，应选interventions，形容词safe修饰名词。 15．考查形容词。句意：他们分析了98名随机选取的健康参与者的血液DNA甲基化数据，这些参与者的平均生理年龄为七十岁。此处表示“平均的”，应选average，修饰名词chronological age。 16．考查被动语态。句意：参与者被随机分组，分别每日服用可可提取物与复合维生素、可可提取物与安慰剂、安慰剂与复合维生素，或仅服用安慰剂。此处表示“随机分配”，应选randomized，用于被动结构。 17．考查名词。句意：研究人员从试验初期以及第一年年末、第二年年末，分析了五项表观遗传时钟的相关数据变化。此处表示“试验”，应选trial，属于实验固定表述。 18．考查副词。句意：与仅服用安慰剂的组别相比，复合维生素组的人群五项表观遗传时钟的衰老速度均有所放缓，其中包含预测死亡率的统计类时钟。此处表示“统计上地”，应选statistically，作状语。 19．考查副词。句意：此外，在试验初期生理年龄比实际年龄偏大的人群，从该项干预中获益最多。此处表示“生物层面上地”，应选biologically，修饰形容词older。 20．考查形容词。句意：我们有望依托丰富的生物标志物数据资源，探究两种干预方式如何改善生物衰老、减少与年龄相关的临床病症。此处表示“临床的”，应选clinical，修饰名词outcomes。 II. Reading Comprehension (45分) Section A (15分) 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. Language allows us to describe actions, qualities, and relationships in both real and imagined experiences. A key question in linguistics (语言学) is how languages developed. Recent research suggests that iconicity — the connection between form and meaning — may have played a crucial role in the 21 . People can’t overcome language barriers and understand each other without iconicity. We often use our hands and bodies, 22 , to act out meanings, showing the sizes and shapes of objects. The key to forming new symbols is the use of iconicity. Not limited to 23 , iconicity appears in visual communication too. Traffic signs, food packaging, and maps all use iconicity to make information easy to understand, regardless of the 24 . Iconicity also exists in 25 . To explore this, researchers organized a contest where participants recorded sounds to express different meanings. These sounds could not contain actual words or 26 expressions like “BOOM” for an explosion. Listeners then tried to match the sounds to a set of written options, and the contestant whose sounds were most accurately 27 won the contest. The results were surprising — listeners successfully identified the intended 28 of the sounds. Yet, all the contestants and listeners were English speakers. Thus, it was possible that listeners’ success relied on 29 cultural knowledge. To test if this phenomenon existed across 30 , researchers conducted a broader Internet survey, translating the experiment into 25 languages. Participants from different linguistic backgrounds listened to the sounds and 31 their meanings from six written options. The findings showed 32 accuracy levels across different language groups. English speakers had the highest accuracy rate at 74%, while Portuguese speakers scored 34%. Though far from perfect, these results were much higher than the expected chance rate of 8%. These studies show that our capacity for iconic communication has played a fundamental role in language 33 . Iconicity enables individuals to express meanings in ways that are not 34 dependent on specific linguistic knowledge. Without this 35 , language may never have developed into the complex system we have today. 21．A．description B．style C．interaction D．process 22．A．as a result B．in particular C．for example D．in other words 23．A．objects B．formation C．understanding D．gesturing 24．A．language B．evidence C．hints D．explanation 25．A．cultures B．sounds C．labs D．competitions 26．A．sound-imitating B．carefully-chosen C．imaginary D．shocking 27．A．heard B．repeated C．interpreted D．recorded 28．A．meanings B．purposes C．volume D．speed 29．A．extensive B．shared C．traditional D．classic 30．A．cultures B．generations C．careers D．situations 31．A．added B．clarified C．acquired D．guessed 32．A．similar B．varying C．satisfactory D．experimental 33．A．ability B．acquisition C．evolution D．diversity 34．A．skillfully B．routinely C．vividly D．entirely 35．A．knowledge B．ability C．awareness D．finding 【答案】 21．D 22．C 23．D 24．A 25．B 26．A 27．C 28．A 29．B 30．A 31．D 32．B 33．C 34．D 35．B 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要探讨了语言中“象似性”（iconicity）的重要性及其在跨文化沟通中的作用，通过实验证明象似性在语言发展和理解中的基础性功能。 21．考查名词词义辨析。句意：最近的研究表明，象似性——形式与意义之间的联系——可能在这一过程中起到了至关重要的作用。A. description描述；B. style风格；C. interaction互动；D. process过程。根据前文“how languages developed”可知，此处讨论讨论语言发展过程，故选D。 22．考查短语词义辨析。句意：例如，我们经常用手和身体做出各种动作来表现意义，展示物体的大小和形状。A. as a result因此；B. in particular尤其；C. for example例如；D. in other words换句话说。根据后文“act out meanings”可知，此处是前文内容的具体例子，故选C。 23．考查名词词义辨析。句意：象似性不仅局限于手势语言，它也出现在视觉交流中。A. objects物体；B. formation形成；C. understanding理解；D. gesturing手势。前文“We often use our hands and bodies, 　　2　　, to act out meanings, showing the sizes and shapes of objects.”提到用手势（gesturing）表达，故选D。 24．考查名词词义辨析。句意：交通标志、食品包装和地图都运用象似性，让信息变得易于理解，而不受语言的限制。A. language语言；B. evidence证据；C. hints暗示；D. explanation解释。根据“regardless of”和后文“researchers conducted a broader Internet survey, translating the experiment into 25 languages.”的跨文化实验，可知，此处强调脱离语言的限制，故选A。 25．考查名词词义辨析。句意：象似性同样存在于声音之中。A. cultures文化；B. sounds声音；C. labs实验室；D. competitions比赛。后文“To explore this, researchers organized a contest where participants recorded sounds to express different meanings”用实验描述用声音表达意义，故选B。 26．考查形容词词义辨析。句意：这些声音不能包含实际的单词，也不能有类似 “BOOM”（模拟爆炸声）这样模仿声音的表达。A. sound-imitating拟声的；B. carefully-chosen精心挑选的；C. imaginary想象的；D. shocking令人震惊的。根据下文“like “BOOM” for an explosion”可知，“BOOM”是拟声词的举例，故选A。 27．考查动词词义辨析。句意：然后，听众尝试将这些声音与一组书面选项进行匹配，其声音被最准确解读的参赛者将赢得比赛。A. heard听到；B. repeated重复；C. interpreted解释；D. recorded记录。根据前文“Listeners then tried to match the sounds to a set of written options”可知，实验要求听众匹配声音与解读，故选C。 28．考查名词词义辨析。句意：结果令人惊讶 —— 听众成功识别出了这些声音想要表达的意义。A. meanings意义；B. purposes目的；C. volume音量；D. speed速度。根据前文“To explore this, researchers organized a contest where participants recorded sounds to express different meanings..”可知，实验目的是理解声音表达的意义，故选A。 29．考查形容词词义辨析。句意：因此，听众的成功很可能依赖于共同的文化知识。A. extensive广泛的；B. shared共有的；C. traditional传统的；D. classic经典的。根据前文“all the contestants and listeners were English speakers.”可知，实验参与者均为英语使用者，依赖共同文化背景，故选B。 30．考查名词词义辨析。句意：为了检验这种现象是否在不同文化中都存在，研究人员进行了一项更广泛的互联网调查，将实验内容翻译成 25 种语言。A. cultures文化；B. generations世代；C. careers职业；D. situations情境。根据后文“researchers conducted a broader Internet survey, translating the experiment into 25 languages.

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） Chinese check-ups Foreigners visiting China often admire the country’s high-speed rail and glittering skylines in an exaggerated way. Its old-fashioned medical system, though, gets less praise. So Amie, a British woman, caused a stir online last month with a glowing video review of a public hospital in Beijing. With persistent stomach pain, and facing a long wait to see a doctor in Britain, she went to China, where she had once lived. Tests, diagnosis and treatment were quick and cost some 2,800 yuan. Even including the air fare, that was still less than she would have had to pay at a private hospital at home, she said. After Amie’s video went viral on Chinese social media, other foreigners chimed in with their own stories of cheap and efficient care in China. A decade ago, officials set a target for China to become an “internationally competitive” destination for medical tourism by 2030, much as South Korea has, with wealthy Chinese often traveling there for complex treatments or cosmetic surgery. Now China is drawing a growing number of foreign patients. Last year its hospitals received nearly 1.3m of them, up almost 74% from 2022, according to Chinese media. China’s medical-tourism market is expected to increase from around 1.2 bn in 2025 to 3.4 bn by 2035, according to Market Research Future, a consultancy. Many of China’s medical facilities are still second-rate, but in recent years its best hospitals have gained top-notch doctors and equipment. For some elective procedures such as laser eye surgery, they are world-class. They are also usually cheaper than Western hospitals. Many have English-speaking staff. And since 2023 China has fast expanded its visa-free entry scheme. This makes it easier to drop in for a check-up. Most of the foreigners to be found in Chinese hospitals are still residents rather than medical tourists. But big cities like Shanghai and Beijing are starting to receive more patients from abroad. Growing numbers of Vietnamese are seeking treatment in hospitals in southern China. And Russians are popping over the border to hospitals in the north-east. State media see this as an encouraging sign of the country’s growing appeal to patients overseas. “Compared with some Western countries, China’s medical system provides more efficient and affordable care,” a researcher told China Daily, a state newspaper. Such messages chime with the current publicity campaign to paint America as an insecure place. But some Chinese worry about possible new strains on China’s medical system, which is largely publicly funded. Chinese doctors are hugely overworked. Queues often snake around hospitals. “Foreigners coming here to enjoy the benefits of Chinese taxpayers isn’t fair,” said one commenter on Amie’s video. “Will foreigners seize our medical resources?” asked an article on WeChat, a social-media app. Such worries appear overblown — public hospitals are only allowed to use 10% of capacity for international departments. 36．The underlined phrase “chimed in with” in paragraph 1 implies that foreigners ______. A．highly admired the advanced infrastructure in China B．agreed with Amie by sharing their similar experiences C．challenged the high cost of air fares charged in Britain D．raised questions about the doctors’ diagnosis in Beijing 37．What does the author of the passage say about South Korea’s medical system? A．It will become a destination for medical tourism by 2030. B．Its low efficiency causes it to lose foreign tourists to China. C．Its hospitals are largely funded by wealthy Chinese investors. D．It has become internationally competitive in medical tourism. 38．What can be inferred about America’ medical system according the publicity campaign? A．Doctors in America are hugely overworked. B．It is insecure to fund public hospitals in U.S. C．One bad illness can ruin someone financially. D．Seizing the national medical resources is unfair. 39．What is the passage mainly about? A．The rise of medical tourism in China and its implications. B．How foreigners compare hospitals in China and Britain. C．Needless concern over the capacity for foreign patients. D．Why China adopts visa-free policy for foreign tourists. 【答案】36．B 37．D 38．C 39．A 【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。文章主要讲述了中国医疗旅游的兴起及其带来的影响，包括外国患者数量的增长、对医疗系统的看法以及存在的担忧等。 36．词句猜测题。根据第一段中“After Amie’s video went viral on Chinese social media, other foreigners chimed in with their own stories of cheap and efficient care in China.(在Amie的视频在中国社交媒体上疯传后，其他外国人也chimed in with他们在中国接受廉价高效治疗的故事。)”可知，“chimed in with”在此处表示其他外国人与Amie有同感，通过分享自己的类似经历来支持她的观点。故选B。 37．细节理解题。根据第二段中“A decade ago, officials set a target for China to become an “internationally competitive” destination for medical tourism by 2030, much as South Korea has, with wealthy Chinese often traveling there for complex treatments or cosmetic surgery.(十年前，中国官方设定目标：到2030年，要让中国成为“具有国际竞争力”的医疗旅游目的地，效仿韩国的成功模式 —— 此前不少中国富人常远赴韩国接受复杂治疗或整形手术。)”可知，韩国的医疗旅游已经具有国际竞争力。故选D。 38．推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中““Compared with some Western countries, China’s medical system provides more efficient and affordable care,” a researcher told China Daily, a state newspaper. Such messages chime with the current publicity campaign to paint America as an insecure place.(官方报纸《中国日报》援引一名研究人员的话称：“与部分西方国家相比，中国的医疗服务更高效、收费更亲民。”这类表述与当前将美国描绘为缺乏保障之地的宣传基调相吻合。)”可知，将美国描绘成一个不安全的地方，通常意味着在那里生活或接受医疗服务可能存在风险，包括经济上的风险，即一场大病可能会让人在经济上陷入困境。故选C。 39．主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是根据第一段中“After Amie’s video went viral on Chinese social media, other foreigners chimed in with their own stories of cheap and efficient care in China.(在Amie的视频在中国社交媒体上疯传后，其他外国人也纷纷分享了他们在中国接受廉价高效治疗的故事。)”以及最后一段中“But some Chinese worry about possible new strains on China’s medical system, which is largely publicly funded.(但一些中国人担心，这可能会给主要由公共资金支持的中国医疗系统带来新的压力。)”可知，文章主要讲述了中国医疗旅游的兴起及其带来的影响，包括外国患者数量的增长、对医疗系统的看法以及存在的担忧等。A项“The rise of medical tourism in China and its implications.(中国医疗旅游的兴起及其影响)”符合题意。故选A。 (B) Teens love to socialize, and these websites give them a chance to do that while playing games, exploring virtual worlds and taking quizzes. Of course, teens also need to be safe online and report any cyber bullies . InstagramInstagram allows teens to upload photos of their daily life and share them with friends. They say that a picture is worth a thousand words, and that must be true because Instagram has around 300 million users who are active each month. The platform is all about photos with short captions (说明文字). When it comes to Instagram’s users, 53 percent of them are aged 18-29, but a big percentage of those may be even younger and simply list their age as 18 in order to use the platform. Habbo HotelHabbo Hotel is a place for teens to chat. Each teen receives a personal room to decorate (装饰) with virtual objects. They can also dress their avatar (网络头像) in virtual clothes or create games to play with friends. The room might have music, be set up like a classroom, or have other features so different avatars can visit one another. Each room teens can interact in has an adult moderator (管理员) to make sure it stays safe. FanlalaFanlala is a social network that gives teens who love celebrities, music and TV shows a place to interact. Through it, a user can get the latest news and gossip on their favorite shows, as well as take quizzes and polls to test their knowledge. Teens can set up their own profile on Fanlala and interact with other users. Teen ChatTeen Chat is a place for teens to interact with one another through forums (论坛) according to their interests. For example, there are chat rooms for those who love anime (动漫) and for those who’ve just started college. There are also chat rooms for things like music, games, and sports. The platform offers a “Friend Finder” tool that will help teens search for people who live locally to them. 40．What makes Instagram different from other sites listed in the text? A．It’s a great place for people to share photos. B．The majority of its users are in their 20s. C．It has the largest number of users. D．Only those above 18 normally use it. 41．Which site allows its users to create their own character and design a virtual room for it? A．Instagram. B．Habbo Hotel. C．Fanlala. D．Teen Chat. 42．What can you acquire from Fanlala? A．Game skills. B．Sports knowledge. C．Anime videos.

They say that a picture is worth a thousand words, and that must be true because Instagram has around 300 million users who are active each month. The platform is all about photos with short captions (说明文字).( Instagram 允许青少年上传他们日常生活的照片，并与朋友分享。他们认为一张照片胜过千言万语，这肯定是正确的，因为 Instagram 每月活跃用户约有 3 亿人。该平台的核心内容就是配有简短说明的文字照片)”可知，与文中的其他网站相比，Instagram 是人们分享照片的绝佳平台。故选A。 41．细节理解题。根据第三段“Each teen receives a personal room to decorate (装饰) with virtual objects. They can also dress their avatar (网络头像) in virtual clothes or create games to play with friends.(每个青少年都会获得一间可自行装饰的个人房间，里面可以放置虚拟物品。他们还可以为自己的虚拟形象穿上虚拟服装，或者创建游戏与朋友一起玩)”可知，Habbo Hotel允许用户创建自己的角色并为其设计一个虚拟房间。故选B。 42．细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“Through it, a user can get the latest news and gossip on their favorite shows, as well as take quizzes and polls to test their knowledge.(通过它，用户可以获取他们喜爱的节目最新的新闻和八卦信息，还能参加测验和投票来检验自己的知识水平)”可知，从凡拉拉网站上你能获取到娱乐新闻。故选D。 (C) Christophe Petyt is the world’s leading dealer in fake masterpieces. His company employs over eighty painters, each steeped in the style of a particular artist or school. “We choose them very carefully,” he says. “They’re usually people with very good technique but not much creativity, who are unlikely to make it as artists in their own right. But they love the great works and have real insight into what’s gone into them.” The view when Petyt started out was that very little of this could be legal. He was pursued through the French courts by museums and by descendants of the artists, with several major French art dealers cheering from the sidelines. “The establishment was suspicious of us,” says Petyt, “but for the wrong reasons, I think. Some people want to keep all the best art for themselves.” He won the case and as the law now stands, the works and signatures of any artist who has been dead for seventy years can be freely copied on condition that the copy cannot be passed off to dealers as the real thing. Until he started the business ten years ago, Petyt, a former business-school student, barely knew one artist from another. Then one particular painting by Van Gogh caught his eye. At $10 million, it was well beyond his reach so he came up with the idea of getting an art-student friend to paint him a copy. In an old frame it looked absolutely wonderful, and Petyt began to wonder what market there might be for it. He picked up a coffee-table book of well-known paintings, earmarked a random selection of works and got his friend to knock them off. “Within a few months I had about twenty good copies,” he says, “so I organized an exhibition. In two weeks we’d sold the lot, and got commissions for sixty more.” It became clear that a huge market existed for fake masterpieces. Petyt’s paintings are exhibited in places with luxurious houses in need of equally impressive works of art. Although their owners include rock stars, fashion designers and top businesspeople, they either cannot afford or more likely simply cannot obtain great works of art. Petyt is understandably reluctant to name any of his clients, but says that sometimes even the owner of the original will occasionally commission a copy. “The best paintings are so valuable,” he explains, “that it’s risky to have them at home and the costs of security and insurance are huge. So some collectors keep the original in a bank and hang our copy.” 43．What do we learn about the painters employed by Petyt? A．They need to be specially trained to produce fake masterpieces. B．They have been chosen because of their painting techniques. C．They are able to reproduce paintings of a wide range of styles. D．They have shown their creativity in their original works. 44．How does Petyt feel about the attempts to prove that his activities were illegal? A．He suspects that they were not driven by public-spirited motivations. B．He accepts that they were useful in helping to establish his integrity. C．He regrets that they gained the support of other art dealers in France. D．He respects the right of the real artists’families to protect their interests. 45．In the wake of the court case he won, Petyt ________. A．no longer reproduces fake signatures on paintings he sells B．has been able to copy the work of more contemporary artists C．is obliged to make sure his products can be identified as copies D．has agreed not to market his products through certain channels 46．What is implied about the majority of Petyt’s customers? A．They regard works of art as a must in their life. B．They have little real interest in contemporary art. C．They buy the paintings purely as a form of financial investment. D．They are wealthy enough to buy the original works of art if they wanted. 【答案】43．B 44．A 45．C 46．A 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了世界顶级仿名画经销商Christophe Petyt的经营业务、发展历程、法律争议以及客户情况等相关内容。 43．细节理解题。根据第一段中“His company employs over eighty painters, each steeped in the style of a particular artist or school. “We choose them very carefully,” he says. “They’re usually people with very good technique but not much creativity, who are unlikely to make it as artists in their own right.(他的公司拥有八十多名画师，每位画师都精通某位特定艺术家或流派的风格。他说：“我们对他们的挑选非常严格。他们通常都是技艺精湛但缺乏创造力的人，不太可能凭借自身成为真正的艺术家。”)”可知，Petyt雇佣的画家是因其绘画技巧而被选中的。故选B。 44．推理判断题。根据第二段中“He was pursued through the French courts by museums and by descendants of the artists, with several major French art dealers cheering from the sidelines. “The establishment was suspicious of us,” says Petyt, “but for the wrong reasons, I think. Some people want to keep all the best art for themselves.”(他遭到了法国各大博物馆以及艺术家后代的联合追讨，而一些法国大型艺术品经销商则在一旁为他们加油助威。“权威机构对我们心存疑虑，”佩蒂特说，“但我认为，他们的疑虑是出于错误的原因。有些人只想把所有最好的艺术品据为己有。”)”可推断，Petyt认为那些试图证明他行为非法的人并非出于公益动机，而是想把好艺术留给自己。故选A。 45．细节理解题。根据第二段中“He won the case and as the law now stands, the works and signatures of any artist who has been dead for seventy years can be freely copied on condition that the copy cannot be passed off to dealers as the real thing.(他赢得了这场官司，根据现行法律，任何已去世七十年的艺术家的作品和签名都可以自由复制，但前提是复制品不能被当作真品卖给经销商)”可知，在赢得官司后，Petyt有义务确保其产品能被识别为复制品。故选C。 46．推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Petyt’s paintings are exhibited in places with luxurious houses in need of equally impressive works of art. Although their owners include rock stars, fashion designers and top businesspeople, they either cannot afford or more likely simply cannot obtain great works of art.(Petyt的画作在那些拥有豪华住宅且需要同样令人印象深刻的艺术作品的地方展出。尽管画作的主人包括摇滚明星、时装设计师和顶级商人，但他们要么买不起，更有可能的是根本买不到伟大的艺术作品)”可推断，Petyt的大多数客户将艺术作品视为生活中的必需品，所以才会在无法获得真品时选择购买仿制品。故选A。 Section C (8分) Directions: Read the passage carefully. 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. If you remove and throw away the peel of most fruits and vegetables, you might be cheating yourself out of a rich source of nutrients, fiber, and phytochemicals-bioactive compounds found in plants. In some instances, the peel of some fruits has been shown to have antioxidant (抗氧化剂) levels that are much higher than the inside of the fruit. 47 Some food manufacturers are enriching functional foods, such as breads and biscuits, with fruit and vegetable peels. 48 However, Keith Ayoob, a registered dietitian-nutritionist at the Albert Einstein College of Medicine in The Bronx, points out, “That’s where the nutrients are hidden.” “Colors have power because they indicate the presence of antioxidants,” which help protect cells from damage caused by pollutants, ultraviolet rays, and other sources of unstable molecules called free radicals (自由基). Because “the peel is the protective layer on fruits and vegetables, it tends to have concentrated compounds like phytochemicals that serve as defense mechanisms against the sun, rain, and pests,” says Wendy Bazilian, a nutritionist and public health consultant based in San Diego. “ 49 When you peel these fruits and vegetables, you literally peel off some of the nutrition.” That’s not to say you should eat the skin of every fruit and vegetable. Avoid cantaloupe, avocado, and pineapple skin, and always peel onions and garlic. 50 That’s why it’s important to clean them thoroughly. “Rinse it under clean water and use a vegetable brush or paper towel on the skin,” advises Lisa Young, an adjunct professor of nutrition at NYU. Of course, you should wash organically grown produce, as well, to remove dirt and germs. A．Those defense approaches guard our health, too. B．Besides reducing food waste, eating the peels has nutritional benefits. C．People usually ignore the peels of dark-colored fruits and vegetables. D．The potential health effects of consuming peels are so promising. E．Let’s continue to conduct further research on fruit peels. F．It’s true that edible skins of conventional fruits and vegetables may contain pesticide remains. 【答案】47．D 48．C 49．A 50．F 【导语】这是一篇说明文。本文介绍了果蔬皮的营养价值、食用注意事项及不同果蔬皮的处理建议。 47．根据上文“the peel of some fruits has been shown to have antioxidant levels that are much higher than the inside of the fruit. (一些水果的果皮被证明抗氧化剂含量远高于果肉)”可知，此处强调果皮的高营养价值。空处需承接上文并引出下文“食品制造商将果蔬皮添加到食品中”的现象。D选项“食用果皮对健康的潜在影响非常可观”既总结了果皮的营养价值（抗氧化剂等），又通过“potential health effects”自然过渡到制造商对果皮的应用，符合语境。故选D。 48．根据下文“However, Keith Ayoob, a registered dietitian-nutritionist at the Albert Einstein College of Medicine in The Bronx, points out, “That’s where the nutrients are hidden.” (然而，布朗克斯阿尔伯特・爱因斯坦医学院的注册营养师基思・阿尤布指出：营养就藏在那里)”可知，“However”表转折，说明空处应先陈述人们对果皮的忽视。C选项“人们通常忽视深色果蔬的果皮”中的“ignore the peels”与下文“nutrients are hidden”形成对比，通过转折突出果皮的营养价值，逻辑连贯。故选C。 49．根据上文“Because ‘the peel is the protective layer on fruits and vegetables, it tends to have concentrated compounds like phytochemicals that serve as defense mechanisms against the sun, rain, and pests,’ says Wendy Bazilian, a nutritionist and public health consultant based in San Diego. (圣地亚哥的营养学家和公共卫生顾问温迪・巴西利安表示：“因为果皮是水果和蔬菜的保护层，所以它往往含有植物化学物质等浓缩化合物，这些化合物充当着抵御阳光、雨水和害虫的防御机制”)”提到果皮是保护层，含有作为防御机制的植物化学物质用于抵御阳光、雨水和害虫”。空处需将果皮的“防御机制”与人体健康关联。A选项“这些防御方式也保护我们的健康”中those指代上文的“defense mechanisms”，通过“guard our health”点明果皮对人体的益处，承接语段。故选A。 50．根据下文“That’s why it’s important to clean them thoroughly. (这就是为什么必须彻底清洗它们)”中的“that”指代具体原因。F选项“的确，常规种植的果蔬可食用皮可能含有农药残留”，指出果皮可能存在的安全隐患（农药残留），与“clean thoroughly”形成因果关系，解释了清洗的必要性。故选F。 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. Dear Mom, Clear My Calendar September is around the corner, and some of us are already complaining about summer’s end. But parents have a special reason to do so. The end of summer means the start of school. And these days, planning a young child’s schedule is a big challenge. The challenge is no longer finding activities to fill a child’s day; it is saying no to the hundreds of options available. Our mailbox is filled with brochures urging us to sign our kids up for classes from cooking to martial arts (武术). Educators are themselves discouraged by the number of special classes that many children attend. In the name of “enrichment”, three-year-olds not only go to preschool in the morning but study French or gymnastics after lunch. One teacher tells of a four-year-old asking for help in the toilet before hurrying off to tennis. Another teacher says that children sometimes hold on to her at pickup time. What happened to unstructured time? A generous explanation is that we enjoy giving children opportunities we never had. The truth, however, is that many parents have doubts about how much time they spend away from their families. And one way to reduce this guilt is to believe that time spent in these classes is somehow more beneficial to children than the time we know we should be giving them ourselves. A child’s time does not have to be planned to be meaningful. Remember the lazy days of summer? Some children sleep late and play with the kids across the street until it’s time to come for dinner. However, with the majority of mothers working, fewer children enjoy that idle time now. Come September, children across the country will finish a full day of kindergarten, only to attend an after-school program until 6 P.M., when a working mom or dad comes to take them home. That’s too much for a five-year-old. Finances, of course, do limit some parents. But let’s be honest with ourselves — our own busy schedules, whatever they involve, are no excuse for burdening a young child’s. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 As the new school term draws near, parents find it really tough to reject various after-school enrichment classes for their young children, which greatly dismays many frontline educators. They do this mainly to ease deep guilt from insufficient company; however, children badly need unstructured free time instead of overloaded daily schedules. 【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章从新学期来临家长为孩子安排大量课外班的现象切入，分析了背后家长因陪伴不足而产生的愧疚心理，并指出孩子真正需要的是不被安排的闲暇时光。 【详解】1. 要点摘录 ①Parents find it hard to say no to the numerous activity options for their young children. ②Educators are themselves discouraged by the number of special classes that many children attend. ③Parents enroll kids in many classes mainly to ease their guilt of not spending enough time with them. ④A child’s time does not have to be planned to be meaningful. ⑤Parents’ busy schedules are no excuse for overburdening a child. 2. 缜密构思 将第1、2两个要点进行整合，将第3、4、5三个要点进行重组。 3. 遣词造句 Parents find it hard to reject various after-school classes for their young children. This behavior is mainly driven by their guilt over not spending enough time with their kids. What children truly need is unstructured free time rather than a packed schedule. A parent’s own busy life is no justification for burdening a young child. 【点睛】[高分句型1] As the new school term draws near, parents find it really tough to reject various after-school enrichment classes for their young children, which greatly dismays many frontline educators. （运用as引导时间状语从句和which引导非限制性定语从句，对第一段和第二段进行概括，逻辑清晰） [高分句型2] They do this mainly to ease deep guilt from insufficient company; however, children badly need unstructured free time instead of overloaded daily schedules. （运用连接副词however构建句间对比，搭配介词短语instead of形成分句内的双层对比结构，整合第三、四、五段的核心内容，表达紧凑） IV.

Grammar and vocabulary Section A (10分) 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. Do women make for better endurance athletes than men? You only need to think of any marathon you’ve watched to assume that men tend to outperform women in sport. But an interesting recent review 1 (publish) in the journal Sports Medicine has triggered the discussion. It highlighted that the male-female performance gap in ultra-endurance competitions (events typically more than six hours) is as low as 4 percent, 2 it’s around 10 percent in traditional endurance sport. And the difference seems to reduce the longer the event becomes, to the point that women even outperform men when 3 comes to events like ultra-distance swimming. Just look at the finishing times for the 45.8 km Manhattan Island marathon swim. On average over the past 30 years, the best women 4 (be) 12 to 14 percent faster than the best men. There are lots of theories as to 5 women might make better ultra-endurance athletes. If we look at the physiology, men tend 6 (have) more type II muscle fibers, which are good for high power output sports such as sprinting (短跑). Women have more type I muscle fibers, which produce less force but are more resistant to exhaustion — ideal for ultra-endurance events. Another theory is that women are better than men at burning fat for fuel and so they have spare essential carbohydrate (碳水化合物) stores. This would mean they’re 7 (likely) to hit ‘the wall’ in a race. Other studies show that women are more likely to keep a consistent pace, 8 going too hard too soon.     Sports psychologists have also suggested that women are generally better at bearing pain, reframing feelings such as exhaustion and enjoying the process rather than worrying about the outcome, all of 9 might lead to a better performance. As persuasive as these theories are, it’s difficult to be certain. Ultra-endurance events are niche (小众项目) and the small numbers of women 10 (participate) make it challenging to draw conclusions, and it’s rare to find direct comparisons with men. Hopefully this will change over time. Section B (10分) Directions: Fill in each blank with a proper word chosen from the box. Each word can be used only once. Note that there is one word more than you need. A．identifying  B．exploiting  C． interventions  D．biologically  E. statistically  F. randomized   G. linked  H. regulating    I. trial   J. average  K. clinical New Research Links Daily Multivitamins to Slower Biological Aging Epigenetic (后成的；外遗传的) clocks estimate biological aging based on tiny changes in our DNA．These clocks look at specific sites in our DNA 11 gene expression and change naturally as we get older, helping track with mortality and the pace of aging. “There is a lot of interest today in 12 ways to not just live longer, but to live better,” said Dr. Howard Sesso, a researcher at Brigham and Women’s Hospital and Harvard Medical School. “It was exciting to see benefits of a multivitamin 13 accessible, safe 14 with markers of biological aging. This study opens the door to learning more about that contribute to healthier, higher-quality aging.” For their research, Dr. Sesso and his colleagues used data from the well-established Cocoa Supplement Multivitamins Outcomes Study (COSMOS). They analyzed DNA methylation data from blood samples of 98 randomly selected healthy participants with a(n) 15 chronological age of 70. The participants were 16 to take a daily cocoa extract and multivitamin; daily cocoa extract and placebo; placebo and multivitamin; or placebos only. Samples were analyzed for changes in five epigenetic clocks from the start of the 17 and at the end of the first and second years. Compared to the placebo only group, people in the multivitamin group had slowing in all five epigenetic clocks, including 18 clocks that are predictive of mortality. The changes equated to about four months less biological aging over the course of two years. Additionally, people who were 19 older than their actual age at the start of the trial benefited the most. “We plan to do follow-up research to determine if the slowing of biological aging — observed through these five epigenetic clocks, and additional or new ones — persists after the trial ends,” said Dr. Yanbin Dong, a researcher at Augusta University. “A lot of people take a multivitamin without necessarily knowing any benefits from taking it, so the more we can learn about its potential health benefits, the better,” Dr. Sesso added. “Within COSMOS, we are fortunate and excited to build upon a rich resource of biomarker data to test how two interventions may improve biological aging and reduce age-related 20 outcomes.” II. Reading Comprehension (45分) Section A (15分) 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. Language allows us to describe actions, qualities, and relationships in both real and imagined experiences. A key question in linguistics (语言学) is how languages developed. Recent research suggests that iconicity — the connection between form and meaning — may have played a crucial role in the 21 . People can’t overcome language barriers and understand each other without iconicity. We often use our hands and bodies, 22 , to act out meanings, showing the sizes and shapes of objects. The key to forming new symbols is the use of iconicity. Not limited to 23 , iconicity appears in visual communication too. Traffic signs, food packaging, and maps all use iconicity to make information easy to understand, regardless of the 24 . Iconicity also exists in 25 . To explore this, researchers organized a contest where participants recorded sounds to express different meanings. These sounds could not contain actual words or 26 expressions like “BOOM” for an explosion. Listeners then tried to match the sounds to a set of written options, and the contestant whose sounds were most accurately 27 won the contest. The results were surprising — listeners successfully identified the intended 28 of the sounds. Yet, all the contestants and listeners were English speakers. Thus, it was possible that listeners’ success relied on 29 cultural knowledge. To test if this phenomenon existed across 30 , researchers conducted a broader Internet survey, translating the experiment into 25 languages. Participants from different linguistic backgrounds listened to the sounds and 31 their meanings from six written options. The findings showed 32 accuracy levels across different language groups. English speakers had the highest accuracy rate at 74%, while Portuguese speakers scored 34%. Though far from perfect, these results were much higher than the expected chance rate of 8%. These studies show that our capacity for iconic communication has played a fundamental role in language 33 . Iconicity enables individuals to express meanings in ways that are not 34 dependent on specific linguistic knowledge. Without this 35 , language may never have developed into the complex system we have today. 21．A．description B．style C．interaction D．process 22．A．as a result B．in particular C．for example D．in other words 23．A．objects B．formation C．understanding D．gesturing 24．A．language B．evidence C．hints D．explanation 25．A．cultures B．sounds C．labs D．competitions 26．A．sound-imitating B．carefully-chosen C．imaginary D．shocking 27．A．heard B．repeated C．interpreted D．recorded 28．A．meanings B．purposes C．volume D．speed 29．A．extensive B．shared C．traditional D．classic 30．A．cultures B．generations C．careers D．situations 31．A．added B．clarified C．acquired D．guessed 32．A．similar B．varying C．satisfactory D．experimental 33．A．ability B．acquisition C．evolution D．diversity 34．A．skillfully B．routinely C．vividly D．entirely 35．A．knowledge B．ability C．awareness D．finding Section B (22分) Directions: Read the following three passages.

Its old-fashioned medical system, though, gets less praise. So Amie, a British woman, caused a stir online last month with a glowing video review of a public hospital in Beijing. With persistent stomach pain, and facing a long wait to see a doctor in Britain, she went to China, where she had once lived. Tests, diagnosis and treatment were quick and cost some 2,800 yuan. Even including the air fare, that was still less than she would have had to pay at a private hospital at home, she said. After Amie’s video went viral on Chinese social media, other foreigners chimed in with their own stories of cheap and efficient care in China. A decade ago, officials set a target for China to become an “internationally competitive” destination for medical tourism by 2030, much as South Korea has, with wealthy Chinese often traveling there for complex treatments or cosmetic surgery. Now China is drawing a growing number of foreign patients. Last year its hospitals received nearly 1.3m of them, up almost 74% from 2022, according to Chinese media. China’s medical-tourism market is expected to increase from around 1.2 bn in 2025 to 3.4 bn by 2035, according to Market Research Future, a consultancy. Many of China’s medical facilities are still second-rate, but in recent years its best hospitals have gained top-notch doctors and equipment. For some elective procedures such as laser eye surgery, they are world-class. They are also usually cheaper than Western hospitals. Many have English-speaking staff. And since 2023 China has fast expanded its visa-free entry scheme. This makes it easier to drop in for a check-up. Most of the foreigners to be found in Chinese hospitals are still residents rather than medical tourists. But big cities like Shanghai and Beijing are starting to receive more patients from abroad. Growing numbers of Vietnamese are seeking treatment in hospitals in southern China. And Russians are popping over the border to hospitals in the north-east. State media see this as an encouraging sign of the country’s growing appeal to patients overseas. “Compared with some Western countries, China’s medical system provides more efficient and affordable care,” a researcher told China Daily, a state newspaper. Such messages chime with the current publicity campaign to paint America as an insecure place. But some Chinese worry about possible new strains on China’s medical system, which is largely publicly funded. Chinese doctors are hugely overworked. Queues often snake around hospitals. “Foreigners coming here to enjoy the benefits of Chinese taxpayers isn’t fair,” said one commenter on Amie’s video. “Will foreigners seize our medical resources?” asked an article on WeChat, a social-media app. Such worries appear overblown — public hospitals are only allowed to use 10% of capacity for international departments. 36．The underlined phrase “chimed in with” in paragraph 1 implies that foreigners ______. A．highly admired the advanced infrastructure in China B．agreed with Amie by sharing their similar experiences C．challenged the high cost of air fares charged in Britain D．raised questions about the doctors’ diagnosis in Beijing 37．What does the author of the passage say about South Korea’s medical system? A．It will become a destination for medical tourism by 2030. B．Its low efficiency causes it to lose foreign tourists to China. C．Its hospitals are largely funded by wealthy Chinese investors. D．It has become internationally competitive in medical tourism. 38．What can be inferred about America’ medical system according the publicity campaign? A．Doctors in America are hugely overworked. B．It is insecure to fund public hospitals in U.S. C．One bad illness can ruin someone financially. D．Seizing the national medical resources is unfair. 39．What is the passage mainly about? A．The rise of medical tourism in China and its implications. B．How foreigners compare hospitals in China and Britain. C．Needless concern over the capacity for foreign patients. D．Why China adopts visa-free policy for foreign tourists.

His company employs over eighty painters, each steeped in the style of a particular artist or school. “We choose them very carefully,” he says. “They’re usually people with very good technique but not much creativity, who are unlikely to make it as artists in their own right. But they love the great works and have real insight into what’s gone into them.” The view when Petyt started out was that very little of this could be legal. He was pursued through the French courts by museums and by descendants of the artists, with several major French art dealers cheering from the sidelines. “The establishment was suspicious of us,” says Petyt, “but for the wrong reasons, I think. Some people want to keep all the best art for themselves.” He won the case and as the law now stands, the works and signatures of any artist who has been dead for seventy years can be freely copied on condition that the copy cannot be passed off to dealers as the real thing. Until he started the business ten years ago, Petyt, a former business-school student, barely knew one artist from another. Then one particular painting by Van Gogh caught his eye. At $10 million, it was well beyond his reach so he came up with the idea of getting an art-student friend to paint him a copy. In an old frame it looked absolutely wonderful, and Petyt began to wonder what market there might be for it. He picked up a coffee-table book of well-known paintings, earmarked a random selection of works and got his friend to knock them off. “Within a few months I had about twenty good copies,” he says, “so I organized an exhibition. In two weeks we’d sold the lot, and got commissions for sixty more.” It became clear that a huge market existed for fake masterpieces. Petyt’s paintings are exhibited in places with luxurious houses in need of equally impressive works of art. Although their owners include rock stars, fashion designers and top businesspeople, they either cannot afford or more likely simply cannot obtain great works of art. Petyt is understandably reluctant to name any of his clients, but says that sometimes even the owner of the original will occasionally commission a copy. “The best paintings are so valuable,” he explains, “that it’s risky to have them at home and the costs of security and insurance are huge. So some collectors keep the original in a bank and hang our copy.” 43．What do we learn about the painters employed by Petyt? A．They need to be specially trained to produce fake masterpieces. B．They have been chosen because of their painting techniques. C．They are able to reproduce paintings of a wide range of styles. D．They have shown their creativity in their original works. 44．How does Petyt feel about the attempts to prove that his activities were illegal? A．He suspects that they were not driven by public-spirited motivations. B．He accepts that they were useful in helping to establish his integrity. C．He regrets that they gained the support of other art dealers in France. D．He respects the right of the real artists’families to protect their interests. 45．In the wake of the court case he won, Petyt ________. A．no longer reproduces fake signatures on paintings he sells B．has been able to copy the work of more contemporary artists C．is obliged to make sure his products can be identified as copies D．has agreed not to market his products through certain channels 46．What is implied about the majority of Petyt’s customers? A．They regard works of art as a must in their life. B．They have little real interest in contemporary art. C．They buy the paintings purely as a form of financial investment. D．They are wealthy enough to buy the original works of art if they wanted. Section C (8分) Directions: Read the passage carefully. 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. If you remove and throw away the peel of most fruits and vegetables, you might be cheating yourself out of a rich source of nutrients, fiber, and phytochemicals-bioactive compounds found in plants. In some instances, the peel of some fruits has been shown to have antioxidant (抗氧化剂) levels that are much higher than the inside of the fruit. 47 Some food manufacturers are enriching functional foods, such as breads and biscuits, with fruit and vegetable peels. 48 However, Keith Ayoob, a registered dietitian-nutritionist at the Albert Einstein College of Medicine in The Bronx, points out, “That’s where the nutrients are hidden.” “Colors have power because they indicate the presence of antioxidants,” which help protect cells from damage caused by pollutants, ultraviolet rays, and other sources of unstable molecules called free radicals (自由基). Because “the peel is the protective layer on fruits and vegetables, it tends to have concentrated compounds like phytochemicals that serve as defense mechanisms against the sun, rain, and pests,” says Wendy Bazilian, a nutritionist and public health consultant based in San Diego. “ 49 When you peel these fruits and vegetables, you literally peel off some of the nutrition.” That’s not to say you should eat the skin of every fruit and vegetable. Avoid cantaloupe, avocado, and pineapple skin, and always peel onions and garlic. 50 That’s why it’s important to clean them thoroughly. “Rinse it under clean water and use a vegetable brush or paper towel on the skin,” advises Lisa Young, an adjunct professor of nutrition at NYU. Of course, you should wash organically grown produce, as well, to remove dirt and germs. A．Those defense approaches guard our health, too. B．Besides reducing food waste, eating the peels has nutritional benefits. C．People usually ignore the peels of dark-colored fruits and vegetables. D．The potential health effects of consuming peels are so promising. E．Let’s continue to conduct further research on fruit peels. F．It’s true that edible skins of conventional fruits and vegetables may contain pesticide remains. 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. Dear Mom, Clear My Calendar September is around the corner, and some of us are already complaining about summer’s end. But parents have a special reason to do so. The end of summer means the start of school. And these days, planning a young child’s schedule is a big challenge. The challenge is no longer finding activities to fill a child’s day; it is saying no to the hundreds of options available. Our mailbox is filled with brochures urging us to sign our kids up for classes from cooking to martial arts (武术). Educators are themselves discouraged by the number of special classes that many children attend. In the name of “enrichment”, three-year-olds not only go to preschool in the morning but study French or gymnastics after lunch. One teacher tells of a four-year-old asking for help in the toilet before hurrying off to tennis. Another teacher says that children sometimes hold on to her at pickup time. What happened to unstructured time? A generous explanation is that we enjoy giving children opportunities we never had. The truth, however, is that many parents have doubts about how much time they spend away from their families. And one way to reduce this guilt is to believe that time spent in these classes is somehow more beneficial to children than the time we know we should be giving them ourselves. A child’s time does not have to be planned to be meaningful. Remember the lazy days of summer? Some children sleep late and play with the kids across the street until it’s time to come for dinner. However, with the majority of mothers working, fewer children enjoy that idle time now. Come September, children across the country will finish a full day of kindergarten, only to attend an after-school program until 6 P.M., when a working mom or dad comes to take them home. That’s too much for a five-year-old. Finances, of course, do limit some parents. But let’s be honest with ourselves — our own busy schedules, whatever they involve, are no excuse for burdening a young child’s. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ IV.

Grammar and vocabulary Section A (10分) 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. Do women make for better endurance athletes than men? You only need to think of any marathon you’ve watched to assume that men tend to outperform women in sport. But an interesting recent review 1 (publish) in the journal Sports Medicine has triggered the discussion. It highlighted that the male-female performance gap in ultra-endurance competitions (events typically more than six hours) is as low as 4 percent, 2 it’s around 10 percent in traditional endurance sport. And the difference seems to reduce the longer the event becomes, to the point that women even outperform men when 3 comes to events like ultra-distance swimming. Just look at the finishing times for the 45.8 km Manhattan Island marathon swim. On average over the past 30 years, the best women 4 (be) 12 to 14 percent faster than the best men. There are lots of theories as to 5 women might make better ultra-endurance athletes. If we look at the physiology, men tend 6 (have) more type II muscle fibers, which are good for high power output sports such as sprinting (短跑). Women have more type I muscle fibers, which produce less force but are more resistant to exhaustion — ideal for ultra-endurance events. Another theory is that women are better than men at burning fat for fuel and so they have spare essential carbohydrate (碳水化合物) stores. This would mean they’re 7 (likely) to hit ‘the wall’ in a race. Other studies show that women are more likely to keep a consistent pace, 8 going too hard too soon.     Sports psychologists have also suggested that women are generally better at bearing pain, reframing feelings such as exhaustion and enjoying the process rather than worrying about the outcome, all of 9 might lead to a better performance. As persuasive as these theories are, it’s difficult to be certain. Ultra-endurance events are niche (小众项目) and the small numbers of women 10 (participate) make it challenging to draw conclusions, and it’s rare to find direct comparisons with men. Hopefully this will change over time. Section B (10分) Directions: Fill in each blank with a proper word chosen from the box. Each word can be used only once. Note that there is one word more than you need. A．identifying  B．exploiting  C． interventions  D．biologically  E. statistically  F. randomized   G. linked  H. regulating    I. trial   J. average  K. clinical New Research Links Daily Multivitamins to Slower Biological Aging Epigenetic (后成的；外遗传的) clocks estimate biological aging based on tiny changes in our DNA．These clocks look at specific sites in our DNA 11 gene expression and change naturally as we get older, helping track with mortality and the pace of aging. “There is a lot of interest today in 12 ways to not just live longer, but to live better,” said Dr. Howard Sesso, a researcher at Brigham and Women’s Hospital and Harvard Medical School. “It was exciting to see benefits of a multivitamin 13 accessible, safe 14 with markers of biological aging. This study opens the door to learning more about that contribute to healthier, higher-quality aging.” For their research, Dr. Sesso and his colleagues used data from the well-established Cocoa Supplement Multivitamins Outcomes Study (COSMOS). They analyzed DNA methylation data from blood samples of 98 randomly selected healthy participants with a(n) 15 chronological age of 70. The participants were 16 to take a daily cocoa extract and multivitamin; daily cocoa extract and placebo; placebo and multivitamin; or placebos only. Samples were analyzed for changes in five epigenetic clocks from the start of the 17 and at the end of the first and second years. Compared to the placebo only group, people in the multivitamin group had slowing in all five epigenetic clocks, including 18 clocks that are predictive of mortality. The changes equated to about four months less biological aging over the course of two years. Additionally, people who were 19 older than their actual age at the start of the trial benefited the most. “We plan to do follow-up research to determine if the slowing of biological aging — observed through these five epigenetic clocks, and additional or new ones — persists after the trial ends,” said Dr. Yanbin Dong, a researcher at Augusta University. “A lot of people take a multivitamin without necessarily knowing any benefits from taking it, so the more we can learn about its potential health benefits, the better,” Dr. Sesso added. “Within COSMOS, we are fortunate and excited to build upon a rich resource of biomarker data to test how two interventions may improve biological aging and reduce age-related 20 outcomes.” II. Reading Comprehension (45分) Section A (15分) 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. Language allows us to describe actions, qualities, and relationships in both real and imagined experiences. A key question in linguistics (语言学) is how languages developed. Recent research suggests that iconicity — the connection between form and meaning — may have played a crucial role in the 21 . People can’t overcome language barriers and understand each other without iconicity. We often use our hands and bodies, 22 , to act out meanings, showing the sizes and shapes of objects. The key to forming new symbols is the use of iconicity. Not limited to 23 , iconicity appears in visual communication too. Traffic signs, food packaging, and maps all use iconicity to make information easy to understand, regardless of the 24 . Iconicity also exists in 25 . To explore this, researchers organized a contest where participants recorded sounds to express different meanings. These sounds could not contain actual words or 26 expressions like “BOOM” for an explosion. Listeners then tried to match the sounds to a set of written options, and the contestant whose sounds were most accurately 27 won the contest. The results were surprising — listeners successfully identified the intended 28 of the sounds. Yet, all the contestants and listeners were English speakers. Thus, it was possible that listeners’ success relied on 29 cultural knowledge. To test if this phenomenon existed across 30 , researchers conducted a broader Internet survey, translating the experiment into 25 languages. Participants from different linguistic backgrounds listened to the sounds and 31 their meanings from six written options. The findings showed 32 accuracy levels across different language groups. English speakers had the highest accuracy rate at 74%, while Portuguese speakers scored 34%. Though far from perfect, these results were much higher than the expected chance rate of 8%. These studies show that our capacity for iconic communication has played a fundamental role in language 33 . Iconicity enables individuals to express meanings in ways that are not 34 dependent on specific linguistic knowledge. Without this 35 , language may never have developed into the complex system we have today. 21．A．description B．style C．interaction D．process 22．A．as a result B．in particular C．for example D．in other words 23．A．objects B．formation C．understanding D．gesturing 24．A．language B．evidence C．hints D．explanation 25．A．cultures B．sounds C．labs D．competitions 26．A．sound-imitating B．carefully-chosen C．imaginary D．shocking 27．A．heard B．repeated C．interpreted D．recorded 28．A．meanings B．purposes C．volume D．speed 29．A．extensive B．shared C．traditional D．classic 30．A．cultures B．generations C．careers D．situations 31．A．added B．clarified C．acquired D．guessed 32．A．similar B．varying C．satisfactory D．experimental 33．A．ability B．acquisition C．evolution D．diversity 34．A．skillfully B．routinely C．vividly D．entirely 35．A．knowledge B．ability C．awareness D．finding Section B (22分) 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） Chinese check-ups Foreigners visiting China often admire the country’s high-speed rail and glittering skylines in an exaggerated way. Its old-fashioned medical system, though, gets less praise. So Amie, a British woman, caused a stir online last month with a glowing video review of a public hospital in Beijing. With persistent stomach pain, and facing a long wait to see a doctor in Britain, she went to China, where she had once lived. Tests, diagnosis and treatment were quick and cost some 2,800 yuan. Even including the air fare, that was still less than she would have had to pay at a private hospital at home, she said. After Amie’s video went viral on Chinese social media, other foreigners chimed in with their own stories of cheap and efficient care in China.

If you remove and throw away the peel of most fruits and vegetables, you might be cheating yourself out of a rich source of nutrients, fiber, and phytochemicals-bioactive compounds found in plants. In some instances, the peel of some fruits has been shown to have antioxidant (抗氧化剂) levels that are much higher than the inside of the fruit. 47 Some food manufacturers are enriching functional foods, such as breads and biscuits, with fruit and vegetable peels. 48 However, Keith Ayoob, a registered dietitian-nutritionist at the Albert Einstein College of Medicine in The Bronx, points out, “That’s where the nutrients are hidden.” “Colors have power because they indicate the presence of antioxidants,” which help protect cells from damage caused by pollutants, ultraviolet rays, and other sources of unstable molecules called free radicals (自由基). Because “the peel is the protective layer on fruits and vegetables, it tends to have concentrated compounds like phytochemicals that serve as defense mechanisms against the sun, rain, and pests,” says Wendy Bazilian, a nutritionist and public health consultant based in San Diego. “ 49 When you peel these fruits and vegetables, you literally peel off some of the nutrition.” That’s not to say you should eat the skin of every fruit and vegetable. Avoid cantaloupe, avocado, and pineapple skin, and always peel onions and garlic. 50 That’s why it’s important to clean them thoroughly. “Rinse it under clean water and use a vegetable brush or paper towel on the skin,” advises Lisa Young, an adjunct professor of nutrition at NYU. Of course, you should wash organically grown produce, as well, to remove dirt and germs. A．Those defense approaches guard our health, too. B．Besides reducing food waste, eating the peels has nutritional benefits. C．People usually ignore the peels of dark-colored fruits and vegetables. D．The potential health effects of consuming peels are so promising. E．Let’s continue to conduct further research on fruit peels. F．It’s true that edible skins of conventional fruits and vegetables may contain pesticide remains. 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. Dear Mom, Clear My Calendar September is around the corner, and some of us are already complaining about summer’s end. But parents have a special reason to do so. The end of summer means the start of school. And these days, planning a young child’s schedule is a big challenge. The challenge is no longer finding activities to fill a child’s day; it is saying no to the hundreds of options available. Our mailbox is filled with brochures urging us to sign our kids up for classes from cooking to martial arts (武术). Educators are themselves discouraged by the number of special classes that many children attend. In the name of “enrichment”, three-year-olds not only go to preschool in the morning but study French or gymnastics after lunch. One teacher tells of a four-year-old asking for help in the toilet before hurrying off to tennis. Another teacher says that children sometimes hold on to her at pickup time. What happened to unstructured time? A generous explanation is that we enjoy giving children opportunities we never had. The truth, however, is that many parents have doubts about how much time they spend away from their families. And one way to reduce this guilt is to believe that time spent in these classes is somehow more beneficial to children than the time we know we should be giving them ourselves. A child’s time does not have to be planned to be meaningful. Remember the lazy days of summer? Some children sleep late and play with the kids across the street until it’s time to come for dinner. However, with the majority of mothers working, fewer children enjoy that idle time now. Come September, children across the country will finish a full day of kindergarten, only to attend an after-school program until 6 P.M., when a working mom or dad comes to take them home. That’s too much for a five-year-old. Finances, of course, do limit some parents. But let’s be honest with ourselves — our own busy schedules, whatever they involve, are no excuse for burdening a young child’s. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ IV.

Use your own words as far as possible. 【答案】 As the new school term draws near, parents find it really tough to reject various after-school enrichment classes for their young children, which greatly dismays many frontline educators. They do this mainly to ease deep guilt from insufficient company; however, children badly need unstructured free time instead of overloaded daily schedules. IV.

V. Guided Writing (25分) 【答案】Dear jack, I’m more than glad to hear from you. Yes, like you said, I have been longing for the upcoming summer vacation after the College Entrance Examination, during which I can do a lot of amazing things. This three - month vacation will undoubtedly be my longest holiday ever. Therefore, I’d like to make it as meaningful as possible. Firstly, I’ll take a part-time job to earn some money to cover part of my college tuition. In the meanwhile, I can meet many interesting people and learn about society. Besides, I’m planning to enroll in a driving course and try to get my driver’s license as driving will be an important and necessary skill in modern society. If time permits, I’m going to learn some Musical Instruments, which is something I’ve always wanted to do. I have a strong interest in guitar, so I want to learn how to play guitar, which can enrich my hobby. I practice in my spare time in the evening, so that I can enjoy the peace of the guitar melody. Best wishes!                                                                       Yours, Li Hua 1 / 3 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $学校 班级 姓名 准考证号 密 封… 线 1 A 葆 I.Grammar and Vocabulary 40 [AJ[B][C][D]I 38 [AJ[BJ[C][D] 37 [A][B][C][D] 36 [A][B][C][D] [AJIBI[CJIDI 24 [AJ[BJ[C][D] 23 [AJ[B][C][D] [AJ[BJ[CJ[D] [AJ[BJ[CI[DI 的 UnNJ」O 45 [AJ[B][CI[DI 44 [AJ[B][C][D] 合43 42 [AJ[BJ[C][D] 出41 30 [AJ[B][C][D] 29 [A][B][C][D] 28 [AJ[B][CI[D] 27 [A][BJ[C][D] 26 [A][BJ[C][D] [AJ[BJICJIDI[EJ[FJIGJ[HJ[IJ1JJ[KI 00 A 0 A 0 9 A )1 o 50 [A][BJ[C][D][FI 49 [AJ[BI[CJ[D][F] 48 [AJ[BI[CJ[D][FI 47 [AJ[BI[CJ[D]I[FI 46 [AJ[B][C][D] 35 [A][B][CI[DI 34 [AJ[B][C][D] 33 [A][B][CI[D] 32 [A][B][CJ[D] 31 [A][B][C][D] 20 [AJ[BJ[CJ[D][EJ[FJ[G][HJ[IJ[JJ[K 19 [AJ[BJICJ[DJIEJ[FJ[GJ[HJ[IJIJJ[KI 1#二HEC二18 18 17 [AJ[BJICJIDJ[EJIFJ[GJ[HJ[I11JJ[KI sA=5=D#=FG二Ha二3 欢瓷、明了。 0 2020保际专害联教合一米02(L预器) ■ 请在各题目的答题区域内作答，超出黑色矩形 IⅡ.Summary Writing(满分l0分) 51.
