上海市曹杨二中2025学年度第二学期 高一年级期中考试英语试卷 命题人：________ 审核人：________、________ 试卷共14页4张 考生注意： 1、答卷前，考生务必将姓名、班级、学号等在指定位置填写清楚。 2、本试卷共有 83道试题，满分 115分，考试时间 105分钟。请考生用黑色水笔或钢笔将答案直接写在答题卷上。 I. Grammar and Vocabulary Section A (5分) Directions: Beneath each of the following sentences there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one answer that best completes the sentence. 1. The detective didn’t discover until he accidentally entered the small cabin ______ someone had tried to destroy the evidence. A. which B. where C. that D. when 【答案】C 【解析】 【详解】考查宾语从句。句意：侦探直到偶然进入小木屋才发现有人试图销毁证据。discover是及物动词，空处引导名词性从句作其宾语，宾语从句的成分和语义均完整，应用连接词that作引导词。故选C。 2. ______ wins the election is going to face immense pressure to enact immediate reforms, as the public demand for change has reached an unprecedented level of urgency. A. No matter who B. Whoever C. Anyone D. Who 【答案】B 【解析】 【详解】考查主语从句。句意：无论谁在选举中获胜，都将面临巨大的压力来立即实施改革，因为公众对变革的需求已经达到了前所未有的紧迫程度。分析句子结构可知，“______ wins the election”在整个句子中作主语，是一个主语从句，从句缺少主语，指人，且表示“无论谁”， 所以用Whoever引导主语从句。No matter who只能引导让步状语从句，不能引导主语从句；Who引导主语从句时，通常表示具体的“谁”，有疑问的意味。故选B。 3. It is a common observation ________ regulations have been carried out to bring down the housing prices recently, wage-earners never seem to be able to afford one. A. that B. that although C. though D. whether 【答案】B 【解析】 【详解】句意：人们普遍注意到即使最近已经出台了降低房价的规定，工薪阶层似乎永远也买不起一套房子。句子结构为It is a common observation that...，其中it为形式主语，that引导主语从句，解释说明“普遍注意到”的具体内容，that不可以省略。从句内部存在转折关系，“出台了降房价的规定”和“工薪阶层还是买不起房”是让步转折关系，需要用although引导让步状语从句来体现这一逻辑。 4. ________ doesn’t make much difference whether you have a rich background. ________ really matters is that you should be an independent learner. A. That; It B. It; That C. It; What D. What; It 【答案】C 【解析】 【详解】句意：你是否有丰富的背景其实并不太重要。真正关键的是你要成为一个独立的学习者。第一空：It作形式主语，固定句型 It doesn’t make much difference whether...（是否……没多大影响），真正主语是后面的 whether从句。第二空引导主语从句，What在从句中作主语。 5. I wonder if he ________, and if he ________, please remember to let me know as soon as possible so that I can make necessary preparations. A. will come; arrives B. comes; arrives C. comes; will arrive D. will come; will arrive 【答案】A 【解析】 【详解】句意：我想知道他是否会来，如果他来了，请记得尽快告诉我，以便我做好必要的准备。wonder后面的if引导宾语从句，if表示“是否”，可知come这个动作未发生，用一般将来时will come；第二个if 引导条件状语从句，if表示“如果”，主句为祈使句，if从句用一般现在时，主语是he，谓语要用arrives。 6. ______ has recently been done to improve the conditions of elementary schools, a great number of children are unable to go to school. A. That B. What C. In spite of what D. Though what 【答案】C 【解析】 【详解】考查宾语从句。句意：尽管最近为改善小学条件做出了努力，但仍有大量儿童无法上学。根据语义可知，上下文为让步关系，排除A项和B项；D选项用though引导让步状语从句，用though后从句还缺少主语，故though错误，in spite of (尽管)，后面为宾语从句，从句缺少主语，需用连接代词what引导。故选C项。 7. When he worked and lived in that district, he ____ drop in at that cozy coffee shop on the street corner shortly after finishing his work each day. A. should B. would C. had better D. might 【答案】B 【解析】 【详解】句意：当他在那个地区工作和生活时，他过去常常每天刚下班就去街角那家舒适的咖啡店坐坐。A. should应该；B. would过去常常；C. had better最好；D. might可能。结合When he worked and lived in that district可知，本句描述“他”过去的习惯性动作，情态动词would与动词原形连用，用于描述过去的习惯性动作。 8. —The research on the new bird flu virus vaccine is challenging and demanding. Who do you think can do the job? —____ my students have a try? A. Shall B. Must C. Will D. May 【答案】A 【解析】 【详解】句意：——针对新型禽流感病毒疫苗的研究充满挑战和要求。你认为谁有能力完成这项工作？——我的学生可以试一下吗？shall用于第一、三人称疑问句中表示说话人征求对方意见或向对方请示，符合语境。must表示“必须”，will表示“意愿”，may表示“许可”，都不符合语境。 9. The old man _______ fiercely against the bloodthirsty sharks, for he only returned to the shore with nothing but a huge skeleton of the marlin. A. might have fought B. could have fought C. must have fought D. should have fought 【答案】C 【解析】 【详解】句意：那位老人一定曾与那些嗜血的鲨鱼展开过殊死搏斗，因为他回到岸边时，除了枪鱼巨大的骨架外，一无所有。A. might have fought（过去）可能搏斗；B. could have fought本能够搏斗；C. must have fought（过去）一定搏斗；D. should have fought本应该搏斗。根据for he only returned to the shore with nothing but a huge skeleton of the marlin可知，只带回一副鱼骨架是老人和鲨鱼搏斗过的证据，因此他肯定和鲨鱼搏斗过，表示对过去事情的肯定推测，要用must have done。 10. If Yuan Longping hadn’t devoted himself to hybrid rice research, our country ________ self-sufficient in rice and one of the biggest food donors in the world. A. couldn’t have become B. mustn’t have become C. needn’t have become D. shouldn’t have become 【答案】A 【解析】 【详解】句意：如果袁隆平没有致力于杂交水稻研究，我们国家就不可能在水稻上自给自足，也不可能成为世界上最大的粮食捐赠国之一。A. couldn’t have become本不可能成为；B. mustn’t have become（不规范表达）；C. needn’t have become本不必成为；D. shouldn’t have become本不应该成为。这是对过去情况的虚拟语气，从句用“hadn’t devoted”，表示“本不可能发生却实际发生了”，主句需用“could have done”结构。 Section B (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.

This trend has been a hard ____31____ to news organizations. Just two months into 2024, several news organizations are already falling apart. The Messenger shut down in January. Buzz Feed announced it would cut 16% of its ____32____ staff. Hundreds of local outlets have not been so lucky, closing their doors as advertising dollars disappear. These news organizations are crucial to the communities—both local and national—that they serve. They work hard to ensure that their platforms are ____33____ in facts and free of abuse. You’re not going to find articles promoting body dysmorphia (身体畸形恐惧症) in the pages of The New York Times. The Wall Street Journal is not going to casually provide carelessly risky investment advice. CNN will not enrich itself through indecent photographs of minors. If any of these companies got involved in such behavior, it would be a major scandal. That would not only leave their reputations scarred but also chase away advertisers. As a result, these organizations ____34____ heavily in content review. But the technology platforms, for some reason, are judged by different rules. It’s not fair to say the road is ____35____ with examples pointing to bad behavior. It’s buried in them. Time and time again, companies like Instagram, YouTube, TikTok and others have been caught allowing harmful content to exist on their platforms. In many cases, such content has not only been permitted to exist, but encouraged by powerful algorithms (算法). What happens when the very humans who control the platforms find out about such content and are questioned about it? Well, they often just release vague public statements. Most of them fail to ____36____ the root causes in a meaningful way. As a matter of fact, the advertising dollars that once supported the carefully ____37____ gardens of traditional media outlets have moved to a world which prefers profits and growth over the public good. To be fair, brands would likely prefer to advertise on the platforms of responsible media actors versus the risky world of social media. But Big Tech, with a larger and younger audience, offers these brands much more effective targeting. To make matters worse, news companies have been far too slow to adapt to the changing technological ____38____. They often come with ugly websites and apps and lack the tools necessary for targeting ____39____ audiences that advertisers want to reach. It’s a disaster that will have great impacts on civilization in the years ahead. News organizations, crucial to a functioning society, are being hollowed out (掏空), if not dying. Meanwhile, technology giants, which have allowed for harmful content to gain a foothold in the digital public square, are ____40____. 【答案】31. F 32. I 33. C 34. J 35. A 36. H 37. D 38. B 39. K 40.

Reading Comprehension Section A (15分) Directions: For each blank in the following passages 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. The Unbelievable Slowness of Thinking People tend to have the sense that their inner thoughts and feelings are much richer than what they can express in real time. Elon Musk has spoken publicly about this “bandwidth (带宽) problem.” Musk is so ____41____ by this problem, in fact, that he has made it one of his long-term goals to create an app that allows the human brain to communicate directly with a computer, ____42____ by the slow speed of speaking or writing. But Musk would probably be ____43____. According to new research published in Neuron, human beings think at a fixed, extremely slow speed of about 10 bits per second. In contrast, human sensory systems gather data at about one billion bits per second. This biological inconsistency might contribute to the ____44____ feeling that our mind can engage in seemingly infinite thoughts at the same time. “The human brain is much less ____45____ than we might think,” says Markus Meister, a neuroscientist at the California Institute of Technology. “It’s incredibly slow when it comes to making decisions, and it’s ridiculously slower than any of the devices we interact with.” He also highlights that our brain can only do one thing — ____46____ — at a time. So even if Musk managed to hook his brain up to a computer, Meister says, he still wouldn’t be able to communicate with it any faster than he could if he used a telephone. The new research builds on decades of psychology studies showing that humans ____47____ notice only a small portion of information from their sensory experience. “We can only pay attention to so much, and that’s what becomes our conscious experience and enters memory,” Meister says. Meister collected data from studies across different ____48____, including psychology, neuroscience, technology, and human performance. From research over nearly a century, they found that human cognition has repeatedly been ____49____ as functioning between about 5 and 20 bits per second, with an average figure of around 10 bits per second. “This was a very surprising number,” Zheng says. _____50_____ this finding, a conclusion has been drawn that the total amount of information a person can learn across their lifetime could comfortably _____51_____ a small thumb drive (USB flash disk). Human sensory systems such as sight, smell, and sound, _____52_____, operate much faster, the authors found-about 100,000,000 times the rate that cognition does. “When you put these numbers together, you realize, oh my god, there’s this huge gap,” Meister says. The rich information relayed by our senses also contributes to a false notion that we _____53_____ the extreme detail and contrast all around us. But that’s “demonstrably not true,” Meister says. When people are asked to describe what they see outside of the center of their gaze, they “barely make out anything,” he says. “_____54_____, we could be having lots of different thoughts and direct our cognition in lots of different ways, but in practice, we can only have one thought at a time,” Meister says. Another problem that contributes to our overinflated sense of our own mind, he adds, is that we have no marker of comparison. There’s no way to step outside ourselves to _____55_____ that this is really not much to be so proud of.” he says. 41. A. outlined B. bothered C. justified D. overcome 42. A. uninfluenced B. undefined C. unlicensed D. unlisted 43. A. thrilled B. secured C. disappointed D. relieved 44. A. genuine B. rigid C. false D. remarkable 45.

C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了一项研究表明人类以每秒10比特的固定、极慢的速度思考，人类的感官系统以每秒约10亿比特的速度收集数据，所以会造成一种错误的感觉——我们的大脑可以同时进行看似无限的思考，但事实是我们一次只能有一个想法。 【41题详解】 考查动词词义辨析。句意：事实上，马斯克对此深感困扰，他的长期目标之一就是创造一种应用程序，让人脑不受说话或书写速度缓慢的影响，直接与电脑交流。A. outlined概述；B. bothered使(某人)烦恼；C. justified证明正当；D. overcome克服。由上文“People tend to have the sense that their inner thoughts and feelings are much richer than what they can express in real time. Elon Musk has spoken publicly about this “bandwidth (带宽) problem.”(人们往往会觉得，自己内心的想法和感受要比自己能够实时表达的丰富得多。埃隆·马斯克公开谈到了这个“带宽问题”)”可知，此处指埃隆·马斯克对“带宽问题（即自己内心的想法和感受要比自己能够实时表达的丰富得多）”感到困扰。故选B项。 【42题详解】 考查形容词词义辨析。句意：事实上，马斯克对此深感困扰，他的长期目标之一就是创造一种应用程序，让人脑不受说话或书写速度缓慢的影响，直接与电脑交流。A. uninfluenced未受影响的；B. undefined未定义的；C. unlicensed无执照的；D. unlisted未挂牌的。由上文“allows the human brain to communicate directly with a computer”可知，人脑直接与电脑交流，说明这种交流方式不会受说话或书写速度缓慢的影响。故选A项。 【43题详解】 考查形容词词义辨析。句意：但马斯克可能会失望。A. thrilled非常兴奋的；B. secured有担保的；C. disappointed失望的；D. relieved释然的。由下文“So even if Musk managed to hook his brain up to a computer, Meister says, he still wouldn’t be able to communicate with it any faster than he could if he used a telephone. (因此，即使马斯克设法将他的大脑连接到电脑上，迈斯特说，他仍然无法比使用电话更快地与电脑交流)”可知，马斯克可能会失望。故选C项。 【44题详解】 考查形容词词义辨析。句意：这种生物学上的不一致可能会导致一种错误的感觉，即我们的大脑可以同时进行看似无限的思考。A. genuine真正的；B. rigid坚固的；C. false错误的；D. remarkable非凡的。结合上文“In contrast, human sensory systems gather data at about one billion bits per second.

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) Growing up in America as a child of first-generation Chinese immigrants, I was used to living in two worlds. But as I grew older, the Chinese side faded away, inch by inch. While I happily accepted the bills tucked in red envelopes that adults gave to children for Lunar New Year and consumed my weight in mooncakes during the Mid-Autumn Festival, I didn’t feel connected to the culture. Before my children were born I had already decided that I would teach them Mandarin (普通话). I felt that they ought to be able to speak the language of their grandparents, the first language their mother encountered. Parenting books advised narrating your actions while with your baby, so I started digging out long-buried words: “ball”, “eat”, “sleep”, “play”. However, as this exercise continued, the gaps in my Mandarin became more and more obvious. One morning, when my daughter asked “What is the word for ‘arm’?” I panicked. Had I already reached the boundaries of my knowledge? Luckily, these days the ready availability of Chinese language media — from books to television shows to music — is a much-needed boon to parents like me: second-generation immigrants who want to pass the language on to their children. The first time I stepped into the local library in my Bay Area hometown, I was amazed to find a well-stocked Chinese section in the children’s wing. The tale of the Monkey King and the legend of Chang’e immediately caught my daughter’s imagination. When I see my son converse with his grandfather in Mandarin or when my daughter insists on fish for Lunar New Year, the time spent reading all those books closely feels well-spent. My youngest child recited Li Bai’s “Quiet Night Thoughts” for the Moon Festival performance at his preschool last fall. For generations of Chinese children, it’s the first piece of literature they memorize. It’s performed for all occasions, but most often for the Moon Festival. Its four lines describe how the glow of the full moon reminds the poet of his distant home. Decades ago, my Chinese teacher explained to me how the steadfast (坚定不移的) moon connects all those who seek its light, no matter how far apart they are. So, too, does language. It influences culture and history and memory, and connects future generations to past ones. Before my bed the bright moon’s glow Seems like frost on the ground Raising my head, I gaze at the moon Lowering my head, I think of home My son’s voice rang out with confidence and his arms swept up to indicate the moon above. Joy and wonder lit up my father’s face as he listened to the familiar verses from the mouth of his grandson: verses that had been spoken by my father and my grandparents when they were students in China, and by countless boys and girls before that. 56. We can learn from the first paragraph that the author ________. A. was brought up in an all-English environment B. once lost her sense of belonging to Chinese culture C. was deeply attracted by Chinese culture when she was a child D. preferred Lunar New Year and the Mid-Autumn Festival to any other festival 57. According to the article, how did the author teach her children Mandarin? ①By sending them to a Chinese school in the Bay Area. ②By bringing them to the local library to read Chinese books. ③By speaking the words of her actions in Mandarin while with them. ④By making use of Chinese language media, such as books, television shows and music. A. ①②③ B. ①②④ C. ①③④ D. ②③④ 58. According to the article, when she realized that her children were very interested in Chinese culture, the author ________. A. felt reconnected to Chinese culture B. was full of hope for the inheritance of Chinese culture C. thought of her own experience of learning Chinese as a child D. felt that all her efforts to teach them Mandarin had been worth it 59. What’s the main idea of this article? A. Language plays an important role in passing down family traditions. B. Language and culture are capable of connecting people throughout time and space. C. Learning Chinese poems is a great way to deepen your knowledge of the Chinese language. D. Knowing the Chinese language will provide you with a better understanding of Chinese culture. 【答案】56. B 57. D 58. D 59. B 【解析】 【导语】文章主要介绍了身为华裔二代移民的作者从小在美国长大，逐渐疏远中华文化，后来决心教自己的孩子学习普通话，借助日常言传、中文媒体与图书馆中文读物传承语言与文化，并从孩子能用中文交流、背诵古诗中感受到语言跨越时空、联结世代与文化的力量。 【56题详解】 推理判断题。根据原文第一段“But as I grew older, the Chinese side faded away, inch by inch. While I happily accepted the bills tucked in red envelopes that adults gave to children for Lunar New Year and consumed my weight in mooncakes during the Mid-Autumn Festival, I didn’t feel connected to the culture.(但随着年龄增长，我身上的中国情结一点点褪去。虽然我开心收下春节长辈给的红包，中秋也吃很多月饼，却没有和这种文化产生归属感。)”可知，作者曾经失去了对中国文化的归属感。 【57题详解】 细节理解题。根据原文第三段“Parenting books advised narrating your actions while with your baby, so I started digging out long-buried words: “ball”, “eat”, “sleep”, “play”.(育儿书籍建议陪孩子时把自己的行为用语言说出来，于是我开始翻出尘封已久的中文词汇：球、吃、睡觉、玩耍。)”、第四段“Luckily, these days the ready availability of Chinese language media — from books to television shows to music — is a much-needed boon to parents like me (幸运的是，如今随处可得的中文媒介 —— 书籍、电视节目、音乐等，对像我这样想把语言传给孩子的移民父母来说十分有益。)”以及第五段“The first time I stepped into the local library in my Bay Area hometown, I was amazed to find a well-stocked Chinese section in the children’s wing.(我第一次走进湾区家乡的当地图书馆，惊讶地发现儿童区有藏书丰富的中文专区。)”可知，作者通过日常行为用中文口述、利用各类中文媒介、带孩子去图书馆读中文书三种方式教孩子普通话，对应②③④。 【58题详解】 细节理解题。根据原文第六段“When I see my son converse with his grandfather in Mandarin or when my daughter insists on fish for Lunar New Year, the time spent reading all those books closely feels well-spent.(当看到儿子用普通话和爷爷交流、女儿坚持过年要吃鱼时，我觉得花在陪孩子读中文书上的所有时间都十分值得。)”可知，当看到孩子对中国文化产生兴趣时，作者觉得自己教他们普通话的所有努力都是值得的。 【59题详解】 主旨大意题。根据原文第八段“Decades ago, my Chinese teacher explained to me how the steadfast moon connects all those who seek its light, no matter how far apart they are. So, too, does language. It influences culture and history and memory, and connects future generations to past ones.(几十年前，语文老师说明月能把所有仰望月光的人连在一起，无论相隔多远。语言亦是如此，它承载文化、历史与记忆，把后世与前人紧紧相连。)”并结合作者教自己的孩子学习普通话的经历，并从孩子能用中文交流、背诵古诗中感受到语言跨越时空、联结世代与文化的力量可知，文章主旨是语言与文化能够跨越时空、联结人们。 (B) 2022 Pulitzer Prize Contest Open to Book Entries The 2022 Pulitzer Prize Books competition is now open.

They had gone one day and one night with their elbows on a chalk line on the table and their forearms straight up and their hands gripped tight. Each one was trying to force the other’s hand down onto the table. There was much betting and people went in and out of the room under the kerosene lights and he had looked at the arm and hand of the negro and at the negro’s face. They changed the referees every four hours after the first eight so that the referees could sleep. Blood came out from under the fingernails of both his and the negro’s hands and they looked each other in the eye and at their hands and forearms and the bettors went in and out of the room and sat on high chairs against the wall and watched. The walls were painted bright blue and were of wood and the lamps threw their shadows against them. The negro’s shadow was huge and it moved on the wall as the breeze moved the lamps. The odds would change back and forth all night and they fed the negro rum and lighted cigarettes for him. Then the negro, after the rum, would try for a tremendous effort and once he had the old man, who was not an old man then but was Santiago El Campeon, nearly three inches off balance. But the old man had raised his hand up to dead even again. He was sure then that he had the negro, who was a fine man and a great athlete, beaten. And at daylight when the bettors were asking that it be called a draw and the referee was shaking his head, he had unleashed his effort and forced the hand of the negro down and down until it rested on the wood. The match had started on a Sunday morning and ended on a Monday morning. Many of the bettors had asked for a draw because they had to go to work on the docks loading sacks of sugar or at the Havana Coal Company. Otherwise everyone would have wanted it to go to a finish. But he had finished it anyway and before anyone had to go to work. For a long time after that everyone had called him The Champion and there had been a return match in the spring. But not much money was bet and he had won it quite easily since he had broken the confidence of the negro from Cienfuegos in the first match. After that he had a few matches and then no more. He decided that he could beat anyone if he wanted to badly enough and he decided that it was bad for his right hand for fishing. He had tried a few practice matches with his left hand. But his left hand had always been a traitor and would not do what he called on it to do and he did not trust it. Quoted from The Old Man and the Sea 63. Since the old man is the main character, in the hand game, why does Hemingway put more efforts in describing his opponent the negro? A. Because Hemingway himself is an anti-racist who wants to support the colored race. B. By doing so, he indirectly shows how strong and determined the old man is to readers. C. He shifts readers’ attention to a new character to neutralize the nervous atmosphere. D. There is no need to describe the old man because he is well-known to all readers. 64. What does the underlined word “unleashed” in paragraph 2 mean? A. spare B. restrict C. reduce D. loose 65. Which of the followings is TRUE according to the passage? A. Many bettors were afraid of losing their money so they wanted to call the game a draw. B. The old man had owed his victory over the negro more to his will than to his strength. C. The referee had been convinced by the bettors that the game be considered a draw D. Regular hand games should be a good practice to enhance the old man’s fishing skills 66. What can be inferred from the whole passage? A. The old man defeated the negro more than once in the matches with his will power B. Many workers working on the docks had showed no respect towards the old man. C. The old man had to self-feed himself a lot so as to stay competitive in the game. D. The negro was not as strong and athletic as the old man had expected him to be. 【答案】63. B 64. D 65. B 66. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，主要讲述了海明威《老人与海》的片段，老人和黑人比赛的情节。 【63题详解】 推理判断题。文章第一段讲到“he had played the hand game with the great negro from Cienfuegos who was the strongest man on the docks. (他和Cienfuegos的强大的黑人玩过扳手腕，后者是码头上最强壮的人)”可知，和老人进行比赛的黑人是码头上最强壮的。在下文中，作者介绍了老人和黑人比赛的过程和结果：老人通过努力，打败了黑人。由此推知，第二段对黑人对手进行更多的描述是为了反衬出老人的强壮和坚定。故选B。 【64题详解】 词义猜测题。划线单词下文“forced the hand of the negro down and down until it rested on the wood. (用力将黑人的手往下压，直到它停在木头上)”可推知要将黑人的手压下去必须释放全部力气，因此带下划线单词的意思是：“释放”，故选D。 【65题详解】 细节理解题。文章倒数第二段讲到“But not much money was bet and he had won it quite easily since he had broken the confidence of the negro from Cienfuegos in the first match. (但赌注不多，他很容易就赢了，因为他在第一场比赛中就打破了西恩富戈斯黑人的信心。)”可知根据文章，这位老人对黑人的胜利更多地归功于他的意志，而不是他的力量，故选B。 【66题详解】 推理判断题。文章最后一段讲到“there had been a return match in the spring. But not much money was bet and he had won it quite easily since he had broken the confidence of the negro from Cienfuegos in the first match. (并在春季举行了一次回归赛。但赌注不多，他很容易就赢了，因为他在第一场比赛中就打破了西恩富戈斯黑人的信心。)”以及“He decided that he could beat anyone if he wanted to badly enough (他决定，如果他非常想打败任何人，他都可以打败任何人。)”可知，从整篇文章中可以推断出这位老人在比赛中用他的意志力不止一次击败了那个黑人。故选A。 (D) At the start of nearly every doctor’s visit, chances are you will be asked to step on a scale and get your weight measured for that day’s exam record. But many conversations around weight have become an obstacle, not a help, in the campaign to make people healthier. Higher body masses are associated with increased risk for diseases like hypertension, diabetes and coronary disease. Many studies of hundreds of thousands of patients have shown that heavier people are at higher risk for these illnesses. But the big picture is not the whole picture. Researchers have identified a subset of obese people considered to be “metabolically healthy”—meaning they do not exhibit elevated blood pressure or the diabetes indicator called insulin resistance, for example. Although the numbers vary greatly depending on the study, the “metabolically healthy” population could account for anywhere from 6 to 75 percent of obese individuals. One interesting report published in 2016 found that a higher body mass index (or BMI, the ratio of weight to height) “only moderately increased the risks for diabetes among healthy subjects” and that unhealthy thin people were twice as likely to get diabetes as healthy fat people. Clearly, there is more to the equation than weight. Despite such findings, doctors routinely recommend dieting for weight loss as a means to “treat” poor health indicators such as high cholesterol and insomnia in fat patients. Virtually no diet works in the long term. The result: 95 to 98 percent of those who attempt to lose weight fail, and up to two thirds end up heavier than when they began. Spending years trapped in a cycle of losing weight, regaining it, then losing it again is associated with poorer health outcomes. It is time that doctors give up the scale-centric health care practice and focus on behaviors that have proven positive outcomes for health. Among the more dangerous by-products of weight-centric health care are the increased shame experienced by the overweight. The well-reported anecdotal experience of innumerable fat people is that doctors often prescribe weight loss without examining them, running tests or performing other normal procedures for conditions that thin people would be screened for automatically. Research over the past two decades has shown that health professionals have negative attitudes toward fat people, as the authors of a large review paper wrote in 2013 in Current Obesity Reports. Not only that but doctors’ appointments with fat patients are shorter on average, and physicians routinely use negative words in their medical histories of such people. Such practices keep people from regular annual exams and prevent the detection of serious underlying conditions. To practice evidence-based medicine, doctors should stop relying on weight alone as an indicator of health. Instead practitioners should focus on behavioral changes to improve health outcomes. 67. By “the big picture is not the whole picture” (paragraph 2), the writer means that_______. A. there are some exceptions B. more evidence should be presented C. some health risk has been neglected D. people don’t care much about health 68. Why does the writer mention the report published in 2016? A. To call attention to those who are thin but unhealthy. B. To explain what “moderately increase” means in real life. C. To argue against BMI being used as an indicator of fatness. D. To show that weight may not be associated with poor health. 69. What can be inferred from the passage about fat people? A. Most of them worry about their weight. B. Some of them can’t be diagnosed correctly. C. They need at least one exam every half year D. They don’t follow doctors’ recommendations. 70. What is the main idea of the passage? A. Weight-watching health care is common but may do harm. B. More care should be taken of those overweight people. C. Fat people are sometimes treated unfairly in society. D. It’s time that we should be more health-conscious. 【答案】67. A 68. D 69. B 70. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，文章说明了以体重为主的医疗保健中心对人们的不良影响，指出医生不应该只以体重为健康指标，也不要将减肥作为快速治疗健康疾病的手段。 【67题详解】 句意猜测题。加粗句上文“Many studies of hundreds of thousands of patients have shown that heavier people are at higher risk for these illnesses.”（针对数十万患者的许多研究表明，体重越重，患有这些疾病的风险越高）提到许多研究表明体重越重，患有高血压、糖尿病等疾病的风险越高。但是下文“Researchers have identified a subset of obese people considered to be “metabolically healthy”— meaning they do not exhibit elevated blood pressure or the diabetes indicator called insulin resistance, for example.”（研究人员已经鉴定了一组肥胖人群“代谢健康”，这意味着这一人群没有出现高血压或糖尿病的征兆，比如胰岛素抵抗）与之形成转折，提出其实肥胖人群中也有代谢健康的人。由此推断，“the big picture is not the whole picture”指的是存在例外，即并不是所有肥胖人群都存在代谢健康问题。故选A项。 【68题详解】 推理判断题。根据这份2016年报告的结果（第三段的第一句）“One interesting report published in 2016 found that a higher body mass index (or BMI, the ratio of weight to height) “only moderately increased the risks for diabetes among healthy subjects” and that unhealthy thin people were twice as likely to get diabetes as healthy fat people.”（2016年的一份有趣的报告发现，体重指数偏高的人群患糖尿病的风险只比健康人群的风险高一点。而体重偏低、不健康的人群患糖尿病的风险是健康肥胖人群的两倍）可知，结果表明，体重偏低、不健康的人群患糖尿病的风险是健康肥胖人群的两倍，由此可知，体重也许并不会影响健康。故选D项。 【69题详解】 推理判断题。根据第五段的最后两句“Not only that but doctors’ appointments with fat patients are shorter on average, and physicians routinely use negative words in their medical histories of such people. Such practices keep people from regular annual exams and prevent the detection of serious underlying conditions.”（而且医生给肥胖患者的平均预约时间更短，医生在描写肥胖患者的病史时经常使用负面词汇。这种做法使这些人群无法定期进行年度体检，从而无法及时测出潜在的严重疾病问题）可知，有些医生只以体重为健康指标，没有给肥胖患者做出正确的诊断。故选B项。 【70题详解】 主旨大意题。结合全文，第一段指出去医院时往往要测体重这一现象，引出话题；第二、三段介绍了虽然先前有许多研究认为体重过重容易诱发高血压等疾病，但是也有研究发现体重可能与健康无关；第四、五段指出以体重为主的医疗保健对人们造成不良影响；最后一段呼吁医生不应该只以体重为健康指标，也不要将减肥作为快速治疗健康疾病的手段。所以文章主要讲的是如今许多医生只依据体重来衡量一个人是否健康，但这么做是有害的。故选A项。 (E) Directions: Read the following passage. 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. Bunny Power: White Rabbit’s Reinvention When it comes to images of rabbits, many Chinese people would think of White Rabbit, a well-known brand of sweets. As one of the few old brands still thriving, White Rabbit has a thing or two to teach other companies about how to stay popular among consumers. China’s first domestic toffees (太妃糖) were produced in 1943 with Mickey Mouse on the wrapper. ____71____ The stylized blue-and-white cartoon bunny became an icon. In 1972, Zhou Enlai, then China’s premier, presented White Rabbits to Richard Nixon on his first visit to China. The fortunes of the sweet soured in the 1970s. As foreign goods flooded in, White Rabbits lost their popularity. Guan Sheng Yuan, the state-owned company that makes them, used the treat’s nutritional property as its selling point. It said seven sweets equals a glass of milk in terms of protein content. The strategy, however, didn’t work well. ____72____ The brand was even affected by the food safety scandals of a brand of powdered milk in 2008. However, the bunnies fought back. In 2018, the first batches of White Rabbit lip balm (润唇膏) sold out within hours. The following year, the producer teamed up with Godiva, a chocolate company, to make White Rabbit ice cream, and people queued for hours to buy the newly launched White Rabbit milk tea at a shop in Shanghai. ____73____ In 2021, Guan Sheng Yuan opened a shop in Shanghai selling a wide range of branded products. The rabbit has reinvented itself many times. Most recently, it has taken advantage of the trend of guo chao, which has been applied to trendy consumer goods with traditional Chinese cultural elements. It also teamed up with the American fashion company Coach, helping it to produce giant bunnies on handbags as well as dresses, denim jackets and a gold White-Rabbit necklace. Tapping into a sense of nostalgia (怀旧), the collaboration gave Coach a boost in the Chinese market. ____74____ Looking to the future, SK-II, a Japanese skincare brand, launched a limited-edition White Rabbit face serum. Foreign markets provide an additional carrot. The candies have diversified into a whole range of flavors, including peanut, red bean, mustard and durian, and are exported to more than 50 countries. That’s a whole different rabbit hole. A. The sweets quickly gained popularity across the country. B. For a time, the sweets had trouble finding favor with customers. C. The sweet maker took the opportunity to open more shops in other cities. D. At the same time, it enabled White Rabbits to gain new followers across the Pacific. E. The company has since launched perfumes, a shower gel and hand cream. F. When this American image fell out of favor in the 1950s, da baitu, a big white rabbit, took its place. 【答案】71. F 72. B 73. E 74. D 【解析】 【导语】文章主要介绍了大白兔奶糖从诞生、兴衰到通过跨界合作与国潮趋势重塑品牌，走向国际市场的发展历程。 【71题详解】 根据前文“China’s first domestic toffees were produced in 1943 with Mickey Mouse on the wrapper.(中国第一批国产太妃糖于1943年生产，包装上印有米老鼠。)” 及后文“The stylized blue-and-white cartoon bunny became an icon.(这个风格化的蓝白相间的卡通兔子成为了一个标志。)”可知，空处需衔接“米老鼠图案”到“大白兔图案”的转变；选项F“When this American image fell out of favor in the 1950s, da baitu, a big white rabbit, took its place.(20世纪50年代，当这个美国形象不再受欢迎时，大白兔取而代之。)” 符合上下文逻辑。 【72题详解】 根据前文“The strategy, however, didn’t work well.(然而，这个策略效果并不好。)”及后文“The brand was even affected by the food safety scandals of a brand of powdered milk in 2008.(该品牌甚至在2008年受到某奶粉品牌食品安全丑闻的影响。)” 可知，空处需承接“策略失效”，说明品牌面临的困境；选项B“For a time, the sweets had trouble finding favor with customers.(一时间，这种糖果难以获得顾客的青睐。)”符合语境。 【73题详解】 根据前文“In 2018, the first batches of White Rabbit lip balm sold out within hours. The following year, the producer teamed up with Godiva, a chocolate company, to make White Rabbit ice cream, and people queued for hours to buy the newly launched White Rabbit milk tea at a shop in Shanghai.(2018年，首批大白兔润唇膏在数小时内便销售一空。次年，品牌生产商与巧克力品牌歌帝梵合作，推出了大白兔冰淇淋；上海一家门店上新大白兔奶茶后，人们排队数小时争相购买。)” 及后文“In 2021, Guan Sheng Yuan opened a shop in Shanghai selling a wide range of branded products.(2021年，冠生园在上海开了一家店，销售各类品牌产品。)”可知，空处需衔接“跨界产品热销”，说明品牌拓展的具体表现；选项E“The company has since launched perfumes, a shower gel and hand cream.(此后，该公司推出了香水、沐浴露和护手霜。)”符合上下文逻辑。 【74题详解】 根据前文“It also teamed up with the American fashion company Coach, helping it to produce giant bunnies on handbags as well as dresses, denim jackets and a gold White-Rabbit necklace. Tapping into a sense of nostalgia, the collaboration gave Coach a boost in the Chinese market.(它还与美国时尚公司蔻驰合作，在手提包、连衣裙、牛仔夹克和大白兔金项链上制作巨型兔子图案。利用怀旧情结，这次合作推动了蔻驰在中国市场的发展。)”可知，空处需承接“与美国品牌合作的影响”，说明对大白兔品牌的反向作用；选项D“At the same time, it enabled White Rabbits to gain new followers across the Pacific.(同时，它让大白兔在太平洋彼岸获得了新的追随者。)” 符合语境。 Ⅲ. Summary Writing (6分) Directions: Read the following passage. Summarize the main idea of each paragraph in one complete sentence. The advantages of social networking 75. Why do most people sign up to social networking sites? The main reason is to stay in touch with other people. These sites also help people to find their childhood friends that they have lost touch with. Renewing these long-lost friendships is just a click away. It is very exciting to be able to catch up with friends and keep up with their news on an almost daily basis thanks to frequent updates. __________________________________________________________________________________________ 76. Keep up-to-date, however, doesn’t have to be restricted to friends and acquaintances. What many people tend to forget is that they can also use networking sites for professional reasons. It is actually a great way of finding out about upcoming job opportunities. Friends might know about job vacancies that may not be advertised elsewhere or they can even recommend their friends for certain jobs. Even people already employed can promote their business online. This is particularly important for artists, actors and musicians who can create pages devoted to their band or theatre company, and inform fans about their gigs (现场演出) or latest exhibitions. In addition, the sites can be used to allow the public to give instant feedback on the artists’ work and to interact with their favourite artist. __________________________________________________________________________________________ 77. Another great advantage of social networking sites is how easy it is to organize an event with your friends. Thanks to different settings people can organize their friends by different criteria. These criteria could be how close friends they are, common interests and hobbies or where they live. This means if a certain event takes place, for example, an open-air concert or a football match, all they have to do is invite the right group of friends to attend. Some networking sites offer a range of quizzes and games, so friends living on opposite sides of the globe can invite each other to participate and compete in a variety of games without leaving their homes. __________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】75. People sign up to social networking sites mainly to stay in touch with others, find lost childhood friends and keep up with their friends’ news. 76. Social networking sites can be used for professional purposes to find jobs, promote business and help artists interact with fans and get instant feedback. 77. Social networking sites make it easy to group friends and organize events, and enable global friends to play online games together at home. 【解析】 【导语】本文介绍了社交网络的三大优势：便于与人保持联系、可用于职业发展、方便组织活动与互动。 【75题详解】 考查段落主旨大意。根据首段中的“Why do most people sign up to social networking sites? The main reason is to stay in touch with other people. These sites also help people to find their childhood friends that they have lost touch with. (为什么大多数人会注册社交网站？主要原因是与他人保持联系。这些网站还能帮助人们找到失去联系的儿时伙伴。)”以及末句“It is very exciting to be able to catch up with friends and keep up with their news on an almost daily basis thanks to frequent updates. (由于频繁的更新，几乎每天都能与朋友们联系并了解他们的最新消息，这非常令人兴奋。)”可知，本段主旨是人们注册社交网站主要是为了与他人保持联系、找回失联的童年朋友并了解朋友的最新消息。 【76题详解】 考查段落主旨大意。根据第二段中的“What many people tend to forget is that they can also use networking sites for professional reasons. It is actually a great way of finding out about upcoming job opportunities. (很多人倾向于忘记的是，他们也可以出于职业目的使用社交网站。实际上，这是了解即将到来的工作机会的绝佳途径。)”、“Even people already employed can promote their business online. (即使已经就业的人也可以在网上推广他们的业务。)”和末句“In addition, the sites can be used to allow the public to give instant feedback on the artists’ work and to interact with their favourite artist. (此外，这些网站可用于让公众对艺术家的作品即时给出反馈，并与他们喜爱的艺术家进行互动。)”可知，本段主旨是社交网站可以用于职业用途，帮助人们寻找工作机会、推广个人事业，还能帮助艺人与粉丝互动并获取反馈。 【77题详解】 考查段落主旨大意。根据第三段中的“Another great advantage of social networking sites is how easy it is to organize an event with your friends. Thanks to different settings people can organize their friends by different criteria. (社交网站的另一大优势在于，与朋友们组织活动十分便捷。借助不同设置，人们可以根据不同标准对好友进行分组。)”以及末句“Some networking sites offer a range of quizzes and games, so friends living on opposite sides of the globe can invite each other to participate and compete in a variety of games without leaving their homes. (一些社交网站提供一系列的测验和游戏，这样居住在地球两端的朋友们可以互相邀请，足不出户就能参与各种游戏并展开竞争。)”可知，本段主旨是社交网站便于人们分组组织活动，并让全球各地的朋友足不出户一起在线玩游戏。 IV.

Tips on Identifying Fake News Online With so much fake news online, it can sometimes be hard to figure out the truth. Concern about the phenomenon led to the announcement made by some tech companies ____11____ they’ll crack down on fake news sites. Fake news is a common occurrence — you see it on your social media feeds, and even on ____12____ (forward) messages on your phone’s group chat. There’s always one person in your group who likes to send unconfirmed news from ____13____ can only be described as doubtful origins. It was even named 2017’s word of the year by dictionary publisher, Collins, ____14____ describes fake news as “false, often sensational, information spread under the guise of news reporting”. Here’s our advice on how to spot a fake. First, check the website and quality of the articles. Look at the sources of the story and read other articles on the site — are they well written with proper citations or are they full of grammatical errors? You should also make sure that you’re on a legal news site. Some fake sites use addresses and even logos that are similar to ____15____ of real news organizations. For example, abcnews.go.com is real, while abcnews.com.co is not. Second, is it the whole truth and nothing but the truth? Sometimes a fake news story ____16____ have a sliver of truth to it, but most of the facts and figures are plotted from imagination. ____17____ (make) sure, search for the same story on several authoritative websites to ensure nothing has been misrepresented. Third, make sure it’s not satire (讽刺). ____18____ the story is on a satirical website, you should be aware that the intention is humour and satire, and not misled. Being able to detect fake news is a crucial part of digital literacy and is an important aspect of life in the digital age. However, not all of the misinformation being passed along online is completely fictional, though some of it is. Snopes.com ____19____ (expose) false viral claims since the mid-1990s, whether that’s fabricated (编造的) messages, distortions containing bits of truth ____20____ everything in between.

This trend has been a hard ____31____ to news organizations. Just two months into 2024, several news organizations are already falling apart. The Messenger shut down in January. Buzz Feed announced it would cut 16% of its ____32____ staff. Hundreds of local outlets have not been so lucky, closing their doors as advertising dollars disappear. These news organizations are crucial to the communities—both local and national—that they serve. They work hard to ensure that their platforms are ____33____ in facts and free of abuse. You’re not going to find articles promoting body dysmorphia (身体畸形恐惧症) in the pages of The New York Times. The Wall Street Journal is not going to casually provide carelessly risky investment advice. CNN will not enrich itself through indecent photographs of minors. If any of these companies got involved in such behavior, it would be a major scandal. That would not only leave their reputations scarred but also chase away advertisers. As a result, these organizations ____34____ heavily in content review. But the technology platforms, for some reason, are judged by different rules. It’s not fair to say the road is ____35____ with examples pointing to bad behavior. It’s buried in them. Time and time again, companies like Instagram, YouTube, TikTok and others have been caught allowing harmful content to exist on their platforms. In many cases, such content has not only been permitted to exist, but encouraged by powerful algorithms (算法). What happens when the very humans who control the platforms find out about such content and are questioned about it? Well, they often just release vague public statements. Most of them fail to ____36____ the root causes in a meaningful way. As a matter of fact, the advertising dollars that once supported the carefully ____37____ gardens of traditional media outlets have moved to a world which prefers profits and growth over the public good. To be fair, brands would likely prefer to advertise on the platforms of responsible media actors versus the risky world of social media. But Big Tech, with a larger and younger audience, offers these brands much more effective targeting. To make matters worse, news companies have been far too slow to adapt to the changing technological ____38____. They often come with ugly websites and apps and lack the tools necessary for targeting ____39____ audiences that advertisers want to reach. It’s a disaster that will have great impacts on civilization in the years ahead. News organizations, crucial to a functioning society, are being hollowed out (掏空), if not dying. Meanwhile, technology giants, which have allowed for harmful content to gain a foothold in the digital public square, are ____40____. II. Reading Comprehension Section A (15分) Directions: For each blank in the following passages 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. The Unbelievable Slowness of Thinking People tend to have the sense that their inner thoughts and feelings are much richer than what they can express in real time. Elon Musk has spoken publicly about this “bandwidth (带宽) problem.” Musk is so ____41____ by this problem, in fact, that he has made it one of his long-term goals to create an app that allows the human brain to communicate directly with a computer, ____42____ by the slow speed of speaking or writing. But Musk would probably be ____43____. According to new research published in Neuron, human beings think at a fixed, extremely slow speed of about 10 bits per second. In contrast, human sensory systems gather data at about one billion bits per second. This biological inconsistency might contribute to the ____44____ feeling that our mind can engage in seemingly infinite thoughts at the same time. “The human brain is much less ____45____ than we might think,” says Markus Meister, a neuroscientist at the California Institute of Technology. “It’s incredibly slow when it comes to making decisions, and it’s ridiculously slower than any of the devices we interact with.” He also highlights that our brain can only do one thing — ____46____ — at a time. So even if Musk managed to hook his brain up to a computer, Meister says, he still wouldn’t be able to communicate with it any faster than he could if he used a telephone. The new research builds on decades of psychology studies showing that humans ____47____ notice only a small portion of information from their sensory experience. “We can only pay attention to so much, and that’s what becomes our conscious experience and enters memory,” Meister says. Meister collected data from studies across different ____48____, including psychology, neuroscience, technology, and human performance. From research over nearly a century, they found that human cognition has repeatedly been ____49____ as functioning between about 5 and 20 bits per second, with an average figure of around 10 bits per second. “This was a very surprising number,” Zheng says. _____50_____ this finding, a conclusion has been drawn that the total amount of information a person can learn across their lifetime could comfortably _____51_____ a small thumb drive (USB flash disk). Human sensory systems such as sight, smell, and sound, _____52_____, operate much faster, the authors found-about 100,000,000 times the rate that cognition does. “When you put these numbers together, you realize, oh my god, there’s this huge gap,” Meister says. The rich information relayed by our senses also contributes to a false notion that we _____53_____ the extreme detail and contrast all around us. But that’s “demonstrably not true,” Meister says. When people are asked to describe what they see outside of the center of their gaze, they “barely make out anything,” he says. “_____54_____, we could be having lots of different thoughts and direct our cognition in lots of different ways, but in practice, we can only have one thought at a time,” Meister says.

Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read. (A) Growing up in America as a child of first-generation Chinese immigrants, I was used to living in two worlds. But as I grew older, the Chinese side faded away, inch by inch. While I happily accepted the bills tucked in red envelopes that adults gave to children for Lunar New Year and consumed my weight in mooncakes during the Mid-Autumn Festival, I didn’t feel connected to the culture. Before my children were born I had already decided that I would teach them Mandarin (普通话). I felt that they ought to be able to speak the language of their grandparents, the first language their mother encountered. Parenting books advised narrating your actions while with your baby, so I started digging out long-buried words: “ball”, “eat”, “sleep”, “play”. However, as this exercise continued, the gaps in my Mandarin became more and more obvious. One morning, when my daughter asked “What is the word for ‘arm’?” I panicked. Had I already reached the boundaries of my knowledge? Luckily, these days the ready availability of Chinese language media — from books to television shows to music — is a much-needed boon to parents like me: second-generation immigrants who want to pass the language on to their children. The first time I stepped into the local library in my Bay Area hometown, I was amazed to find a well-stocked Chinese section in the children’s wing. The tale of the Monkey King and the legend of Chang’e immediately caught my daughter’s imagination. When I see my son converse with his grandfather in Mandarin or when my daughter insists on fish for Lunar New Year, the time spent reading all those books closely feels well-spent. My youngest child recited Li Bai’s “Quiet Night Thoughts” for the Moon Festival performance at his preschool last fall. For generations of Chinese children, it’s the first piece of literature they memorize. It’s performed for all occasions, but most often for the Moon Festival. Its four lines describe how the glow of the full moon reminds the poet of his distant home. Decades ago, my Chinese teacher explained to me how the steadfast (坚定不移的) moon connects all those who seek its light, no matter how far apart they are. So, too, does language. It influences culture and history and memory, and connects future generations to past ones. Before my bed the bright moon’s glow Seems like frost on the ground Raising my head, I gaze at the moon Lowering my head, I think of home My son’s voice rang out with confidence and his arms swept up to indicate the moon above. Joy and wonder lit up my father’s face as he listened to the familiar verses from the mouth of his grandson: verses that had been spoken by my father and my grandparents when they were students in China, and by countless boys and girls before that. 56. We can learn from the first paragraph that the author ________. A. was brought up in an all-English environment B. once lost her sense of belonging to Chinese culture C. was deeply attracted by Chinese culture when she was a child D. preferred Lunar New Year and the Mid-Autumn Festival to any other festival 57.

(C) As the sun set he remembered, to give himself more confidence, the time in the tavern at Casablanca when he had played the hand game with the great negro from Cienfuegos who was the strongest man on the docks. They had gone one day and one night with their elbows on a chalk line on the table and their forearms straight up and their hands gripped tight. Each one was trying to force the other’s hand down onto the table. There was much betting and people went in and out of the room under the kerosene lights and he had looked at the arm and hand of the negro and at the negro’s face. They changed the referees every four hours after the first eight so that the referees could sleep. Blood came out from under the fingernails of both his and the negro’s hands and they looked each other in the eye and at their hands and forearms and the bettors went in and out of the room and sat on high chairs against the wall and watched. The walls were painted bright blue and were of wood and the lamps threw their shadows against them. The negro’s shadow was huge and it moved on the wall as the breeze moved the lamps. The odds would change back and forth all night and they fed the negro rum and lighted cigarettes for him. Then the negro, after the rum, would try for a tremendous effort and once he had the old man, who was not an old man then but was Santiago El Campeon, nearly three inches off balance. But the old man had raised his hand up to dead even again. He was sure then that he had the negro, who was a fine man and a great athlete, beaten. And at daylight when the bettors were asking that it be called a draw and the referee was shaking his head, he had unleashed his effort and forced the hand of the negro down and down until it rested on the wood. The match had started on a Sunday morning and ended on a Monday morning. Many of the bettors had asked for a draw because they had to go to work on the docks loading sacks of sugar or at the Havana Coal Company. Otherwise everyone would have wanted it to go to a finish. But he had finished it anyway and before anyone had to go to work. For a long time after that everyone had called him The Champion and there had been a return match in the spring. But not much money was bet and he had won it quite easily since he had broken the confidence of the negro from Cienfuegos in the first match. After that he had a few matches and then no more. He decided that he could beat anyone if he wanted to badly enough and he decided that it was bad for his right hand for fishing. He had tried a few practice matches with his left hand. But his left hand had always been a traitor and would not do what he called on it to do and he did not trust it. Quoted from The Old Man and the Sea 63. Since the old man is the main character, in the hand game, why does Hemingway put more efforts in describing his opponent the negro? A. Because Hemingway himself is an anti-racist who wants to support the colored race. B. By doing so, he indirectly shows how strong and determined the old man is to readers. C. He shifts readers’ attention to a new character to neutralize the nervous atmosphere. D. There is no need to describe the old man because he is well-known to all readers. 64. What does the underlined word “unleashed” in paragraph 2 mean? A. spare B. restrict C. reduce D. loose 65. Which of the followings is TRUE according to the passage? A. Many bettors were afraid of losing their money so they wanted to call the game a draw. B. The old man had owed his victory over the negro more to his will than to his strength. C. The referee had been convinced by the bettors that the game be considered a draw D. Regular hand games should be a good practice to enhance the old man’s fishing skills 66. What can be inferred from the whole passage? A. The old man defeated the negro more than once in the matches with his will power B. Many workers working on the docks had showed no respect towards the old man. C. The old man had to self-feed himself a lot so as to stay competitive in the game. D. The negro was not as strong and athletic as the old man had expected him to be. (D) At the start of nearly every doctor’s visit, chances are you will be asked to step on a scale and get your weight measured for that day’s exam record. But many conversations around weight have become an obstacle, not a help, in the campaign to make people healthier. Higher body masses are associated with increased risk for diseases like hypertension, diabetes and coronary disease. Many studies of hundreds of thousands of patients have shown that heavier people are at higher risk for these illnesses. But the big picture is not the whole picture. Researchers have identified a subset of obese people considered to be “metabolically healthy”—meaning they do not exhibit elevated blood pressure or the diabetes indicator called insulin resistance, for example. Although the numbers vary greatly depending on the study, the “metabolically healthy” population could account for anywhere from 6 to 75 percent of obese individuals. One interesting report published in 2016 found that a higher body mass index (or BMI, the ratio of weight to height) “only moderately increased the risks for diabetes among healthy subjects” and that unhealthy thin people were twice as likely to get diabetes as healthy fat people. Clearly, there is more to the equation than weight. Despite such findings, doctors routinely recommend dieting for weight loss as a means to “treat” poor health indicators such as high cholesterol and insomnia in fat patients. Virtually no diet works in the long term. The result: 95 to 98 percent of those who attempt to lose weight fail, and up to two thirds end up heavier than when they began. Spending years trapped in a cycle of losing weight, regaining it, then losing it again is associated with poorer health outcomes. It is time that doctors give up the scale-centric health care practice and focus on behaviors that have proven positive outcomes for health. Among the more dangerous by-products of weight-centric health care are the increased shame experienced by the overweight. The well-reported anecdotal experience of innumerable fat people is that doctors often prescribe weight loss without examining them, running tests or performing other normal procedures for conditions that thin people would be screened for automatically. Research over the past two decades has shown that health professionals have negative attitudes toward fat people, as the authors of a large review paper wrote in 2013 in Current Obesity Reports. Not only that but doctors’ appointments with fat patients are shorter on average, and physicians routinely use negative words in their medical histories of such people. Such practices keep people from regular annual exams and prevent the detection of serious underlying conditions. To practice evidence-based medicine, doctors should stop relying on weight alone as an indicator of health. Instead practitioners should focus on behavioral changes to improve health outcomes. 67. By “the big picture is not the whole picture” (paragraph 2), the writer means that_______. A. there are some exceptions B. more evidence should be presented C. some health risk has been neglected D. people don’t care much about health 68. Why does the writer mention the report published in 2016? A. To call attention to those who are thin but unhealthy. B. To explain what “moderately increase” means in real life. C. To argue against BMI being used as an indicator of fatness. D. To show that weight may not be associated with poor health. 69. What can be inferred from the passage about fat people? A. Most of them worry about their weight. B. Some of them can’t be diagnosed correctly. C. They need at least one exam every half year D. They don’t follow doctors’ recommendations. 70. What is the main idea of the passage? A. Weight-watching health care is common but may do harm. B. More care should be taken of those overweight people. C. Fat people are sometimes treated unfairly in society. D. It’s time that we should be more health-conscious. (E) Directions: Read the following passage.

Bunny Power: White Rabbit’s Reinvention When it comes to images of rabbits, many Chinese people would think of White Rabbit, a well-known brand of sweets. As one of the few old brands still thriving, White Rabbit has a thing or two to teach other companies about how to stay popular among consumers. China’s first domestic toffees (太妃糖) were produced in 1943 with Mickey Mouse on the wrapper. ____71____ The stylized blue-and-white cartoon bunny became an icon. In 1972, Zhou Enlai, then China’s premier, presented White Rabbits to Richard Nixon on his first visit to China. The fortunes of the sweet soured in the 1970s. As foreign goods flooded in, White Rabbits lost their popularity. Guan Sheng Yuan, the state-owned company that makes them, used the treat’s nutritional property as its selling point. It said seven sweets equals a glass of milk in terms of protein content. The strategy, however, didn’t work well. ____72____ The brand was even affected by the food safety scandals of a brand of powdered milk in 2008. However, the bunnies fought back. In 2018, the first batches of White Rabbit lip balm (润唇膏) sold out within hours. The following year, the producer teamed up with Godiva, a chocolate company, to make White Rabbit ice cream, and people queued for hours to buy the newly launched White Rabbit milk tea at a shop in Shanghai. ____73____ In 2021, Guan Sheng Yuan opened a shop in Shanghai selling a wide range of branded products. The rabbit has reinvented itself many times. Most recently, it has taken advantage of the trend of guo chao, which has been applied to trendy consumer goods with traditional Chinese cultural elements. It also teamed up with the American fashion company Coach, helping it to produce giant bunnies on handbags as well as dresses, denim jackets and a gold White-Rabbit necklace. Tapping into a sense of nostalgia (怀旧), the collaboration gave Coach a boost in the Chinese market. ____74____ Looking to the future, SK-II, a Japanese skincare brand, launched a limited-edition White Rabbit face serum. Foreign markets provide an additional carrot. The candies have diversified into a whole range of flavors, including peanut, red bean, mustard and durian, and are exported to more than 50 countries. That’s a whole different rabbit hole. A. The sweets quickly gained popularity across the country. B. For a time, the sweets had trouble finding favor with customers. C. The sweet maker took the opportunity to open more shops in other cities. D. At the same time, it enabled White Rabbits to gain new followers across the Pacific. E. The company has since launched perfumes, a shower gel and hand cream. F. When this American image fell out of favor in the 1950s, da baitu, a big white rabbit, took its place. Ⅲ.

Why do most people sign up to social networking sites? The main reason is to stay in touch with other people. These sites also help people to find their childhood friends that they have lost touch with. Renewing these long-lost friendships is just a click away. It is very exciting to be able to catch up with friends and keep up with their news on an almost daily basis thanks to frequent updates. __________________________________________________________________________________________ 76. Keep up-to-date, however, doesn’t have to be restricted to friends and acquaintances. What many people tend to forget is that they can also use networking sites for professional reasons. It is actually a great way of finding out about upcoming job opportunities. Friends might know about job vacancies that may not be advertised elsewhere or they can even recommend their friends for certain jobs. Even people already employed can promote their business online. This is particularly important for artists, actors and musicians who can create pages devoted to their band or theatre company, and inform fans about their gigs (现场演出) or latest exhibitions. In addition, the sites can be used to allow the public to give instant feedback on the artists’ work and to interact with their favourite artist. __________________________________________________________________________________________ 77. Another great advantage of social networking sites is how easy it is to organize an event with your friends. Thanks to different settings people can organize their friends by different criteria. These criteria could be how close friends they are, common interests and hobbies or where they live. This means if a certain event takes place, for example, an open-air concert or a football match, all they have to do is invite the right group of friends to attend. Some networking sites offer a range of quizzes and games, so friends living on opposite sides of the globe can invite each other to participate and compete in a variety of games without leaving their homes. __________________________________________________________________________________________ IV. Translation (15分) Directions: Translate the following sentences into English, using the words given in the brackets. 78. 这部刚上映的电影老少咸宜。（appeal）（汉译英） __________________________________________________________________________________________ 79. 过了许多年，这款保健产品是个假洋品牌这一事实才被揭露。（before）（汉译英） ______________________________________________________________________ 80. 从教练脸上的表情判断，他一定对队员们在这场乒乓球赛中的表现不满意。(judge) (汉译英) __________________________________________________________________________________________ 81. 眼观六路，耳听八方可以让记者捕捉到值得报道的新闻。（it）（汉译英） __________________________________________________________________________________________ 82. 当这个电视节目播出的时候，无数的观众被其中团圆糕的制作方式所吸引，想要亲手尝试制作这道美食。 (air) (汉译英) __________________________________________________________________________________________ V.
