M: What are your plans for the future? W: I’m planning to expand the program to rural areas where access to music education is limited. 听下面一段对话，回答以下小题。【此处可播放相关音频，请去附件查看】 14.

Both the flowers and the tree gave the place a wonderful look, and they were the pride of the gardener. But no one knows that the flowers and the tree couldn’t stand each other. The flowers hated the tree’s shadow, because it left them only just enough light to live. The tree, on the other hand, hated the flowers because they drank nearly all the water, leaving him just enough to live. The situation became so serious that the flowers decided to run out of all the water in the ground so that the tree would die. The tree fought back by not protecting the flowers from the hot sun, so they began to dry up. Soon, the flowers were really weak, and the tree was drying up. The gardener wondered why and stopped watering them. When he did that, both the tree and the flowers realized that it was better to help each other. They learned how to live in harmony with those around them. So they decided to work together, using both the shade and the water to grow well. After seeing how well they were doing, the gardener gave the best care to the garden, watering and fertilizing (施肥于) it better than any other patch (小块土地) for miles around. 第二部分 阅读(共两节，满分50分) 第一节(共15小题;每小题2.5分，满分37.5分) 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 A Women and Wealth with ADAMS WEALTH PARTNERS CEO David Adams shares how quarterly events empower women on their financial journey.

(我们的许多与会者都结交了新朋友，并与他们现在共事的专业人士建立了联系，这真是太酷了!)”可知，参加“Women and Wealth”系列活动的参与者可以获得新的社交联系这一额外好处。故选A。 【22题详解】 细节理解题。根据对话中David Adams(DA)的回答“Our firm recognized that women, in general, face unique financial challenges, including pay gaps, longer life expectancies, and often taking career breaks for family reasons. (我们公司认识到，女性普遍面临着独特的财务挑战，包括工资差距、预期寿命更长，以及经常因家庭原因而中断职业生涯)”可知，女性面临的独特挑战包括工资差距、预期寿命更长以及经常因家庭原因而中断职业生涯，即工作年限的差距。故选D。 【23题详解】 推理判断题。根据对话开头“Nashville Lifestyles(NL): Tell us about your “Women and Wealth” series. (纳什维尔生活方式(NL)：给我们讲讲你的“女性与财富”系列吧)”以及后续的对话内容可知，这是纳什维尔生活方式杂志对ADAMS WEALTH PARTNERS公司的CEO David Adams进行的一次访谈。因此，本文是一篇杂志访谈。故选C。 B “You learn a lot by almost dying,” David always says. In 2010, David, a sophomore from the medical school of Pennsylvania got very sick and the diagnosis was Castleman — a rare condition with approximately 7,000 new cases annually in the US. In hospital, David noticed curious red spots on his skin. He asked doctors what the blood spots meant. “They went out of their way to say they didn’t matter,” said David, but he would go on to prove he was on to something. Castleman hit David four more times over the next three years. David stayed alive only through intense chemotherapy (化学疗法). Despite the illness, he managed to graduate and began an MBA (Master of Business Administration) at Wharton School, where he founded the CDCN — a global initiative devoted to fighting Castleman. Many of his MBA classmates joined the cause. David hoped that adding a CEO mindset would enable him to improve his approach to curing himself. CDCN prioritized clinical trials that reused drugs the FDA (美国药监局) had already approved as safe. In 2013, another attack marked his closest experience with death yet. This time, David saved his own life. After examining his medical charts, he targeted an idea that researchers hadn’t yet explored: A protein (蛋白质) called VECF which controls blood vessel growth was rising at 10 times its normal level. David assumed that the red spots with every re-occurrence were a direct result of that protein rise. David asked his doctor to order Sirolimus, a drug approved to help fight the immune system when it activates against kidney transplants. He picked it up at a pharmacy. “A drug that could potentially save my life was hiding in plain sight,” he said. So far, David has been in remission from Castleman for more than six years, close to full strength. As an assistant professor at the University of Pennsylvania, he was running a clinical trial on the drug that has given him his life back. “So little time and money has been invested in these rare diseases like Castleman,” says David, “There’s tremendous opportunity to change that, there’s a lot of promising successes!” 24. What can we know about the CDCN? A. It’s a national organization in the USA. B. It enrolled members beyond the medical field. C. It was founded when David was a medical student. D. It prioritized clinical trials on newly-applied drugs. 25. According to the text, which one is TRUE? A. Sirolimus has certain effectiveness for Castleman. B. David suffered Castleman four times all together. C. There’re roughly 7,000 Castleman cases in the US. D. Red spots on David’s skin caused an increase in VECF levels. 26. What can be inferred from the last paragraph? A. David has recovered from Castleman completely. B. David has completed further research on Sirolimus. C. Sufficient investments are put in Castleman research. D. High likelihood of achievement is in Castleman research. 27. What can we learn from David’s experience? A. No pains, no gains. B. It’s never too late to learn. C. Actions speak louder than words. D. God helps those who help themselves. 【答案】24. B 25. A 26. D 27. D 【解析】 【导语】本文主要介绍的是David与罕见疾病Castleman病抗争的经历，以及他如何通过自己的努力找到治疗方法并致力于推动相关疾病研究的故事。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“Despite the illness, he managed to graduate and began an MBA (Master of Business Administration) at Wharton School, where he founded the CDCN — a global initiative devoted to fighting Castleman. Many of his MBA classmates joined the cause. (尽管身患疾病，他还是设法毕业了，并在沃顿商学院开始攻读工商管理硕士学位，在那里他创立了CDCN——一个致力于对抗Castleman病的全球性倡议。他的许多MBA同学都加入了这项事业。)”可知，CDCN是David在攻读MBA期间创立的，他的许多MBA同学（来自商业领域而非医学领域）也加入了这项事业，说明该组织招募了医学领域之外的成员。 【25题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段“So far, David has been in remission from Castleman for more than six years, close to full strength. (到目前为止，David的Castleman病已经缓解六年多了，接近完全康复。)”以及第四段“David asked his doctor to order Sirolimus, a drug approved to help fight the immune system when it activates against kidney transplants. (David让医生开了Sirolimus，这是一种被批准用于帮助对抗免疫系统对肾移植产生排斥反应的药物。)”可知，David使用Sirolimus后病情得到了缓解，说明这种药物对Castleman病有一定的疗效。 【26题详解】 推理判断题。根据第五段“‘So little time and money has been invested in these rare diseases like Castleman,’says David, ‘There’s tremendous opportunity to change that, there’s a lot of promising successes!’ (David说：‘像Castleman这样的罕见疾病投入的时间和金钱太少了，改变这种状况有巨大的机会，有很多充满希望的成功案例！’)”可知，David认为Castleman病研究目前投入不足，但有很多有希望的成功案例，这意味着该领域取得成就的可能性很高。 【27题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“This time, David saved his own life. After examining his medical charts, he targeted an idea that researchers hadn't yet explored: A protein (蛋白质) called VECF which controls blood vessel growth was rising at 10 times its normal level. David assumed that the red spots with every re-occurrence were a direct result of that protein rise. David asked his doctor to order Sirolimus, a drug approved to help fight the immune system when it activates against kidney transplants. (这一次，David救了自己的命。在检查了自己的病历后，他瞄准了一个研究人员尚未探索的想法：一种叫做VECF的蛋白质（控制血管生长）正在以正常水平的10倍上升。David认为每次复发时出现的红斑都是这种蛋白质上升的直接结果。David让医生开了Sirolimus，这是一种被批准用于帮助对抗免疫系统对肾移植产生排斥反应的药物。)”可知，David在面临生命危险时，主动研究自己的病情，找到了可能拯救自己生命的药物，最终挽救了自己的生命。这说明“自助者天助”能概括David的经历。 C As trees turn gold and red in autumn, scientists are debating exactly what those colors are for. “I had always assumed that autumn leaves were waste baskets,” said ecologist Dr. Wilkinson. “That’s what I was told as a student.” For decades, textbooks claimed that autumn colors were just a by-product of dying leaves. But in recent years, scientists have recognized that autumn colors probably play an important role in the life of many trees. Dr. Hamilton, from Oxford University, proposed that bright autumn leaves contain a message: they warn insects to leave them alone. In the fall, insects choose trees where they will lay their eggs. Then the next spring, the baby insects feed on the tree, often with damaging results. A tree can discourage these insects with poisons. Dr. Hamilton assumed that trees with strong defenses might be able to protect themselves even further by letting egg-laying insects know what was in store for their eggs. By producing brilliant autumn colors, the trees advertised their harmfulness. As insects evolved to avoid the brightest leaves, natural selection favored trees that could become even brighter. The leaf-signal theory has drawn criticism, most recently from Dr. Hoch at the University of Wisconsin, who argues that bright leaves appear on trees that have no insects to warn off. His recent work suggests that fall colors serve mainly as a sunscreen. Autumn leaves cannot capture all the sunlight striking them, and the leftover energy can build up in the leaf and cause damage to its tissue. Anthocyanins (花青素) that produce red and orange colors appear to protect autumn leaves by blocking some of the sunlight. “You may have a few instances where insects have some sort of relationship to color changes,” Dr. Hoch said, “but it’s almost certainly not a broad-based explanation. It doesn’t hold any water.” These arguments have not influenced Dr. Hamilton’s supporters, who argue that the leaf-signal theory is still worth investigating. But both sides agree that the debate is useful, because it has given them deeper admiration for this time of year. 28. What did Dr. Wilkinson present about autumn leaves in the first paragraph? A. A new discovery. B. A wide-ranging debate. C. A commonly-held view. D. A theoretical assumption. 29. What is the function of bright autumn leaves according to Dr. Hamilton? A. To attract certain insects. B. To prevent trees from harm. C. To store nutrients for the future. D. To maintain ecological balance. 30. Which of the following is TRUE according to paragraph 4? A. Dr. Hoch had a better understanding of the fall colors than Dr. Hamilton. B. Dr. Hoch’s work showed the only function of fall colors as a sunscreen. C. Dr. Hoch found autumn leaves are completely unable to get the sunshine. D. Dr. Hoch criticized the connection between bright leaves and insect warning. 31. What is the main idea of the text? A. Scientists have fully understood why autumn leaves change color. B. Scientists are debating the possible purposes of bright autumn colors. C. Autumn leaves change color mainly to protect themselves from insects. D. Autumn colors have been recognized as a useless by-product of dying leaves. 【答案】28. C 29. B 30. D 31. B 【解析】 【导语】文章介绍了两种有关秋天树叶变色的理论：Hamilton博士的“警告昆虫”理论和Hoch博士的“防晒”理论，指出科学界对这一自然现象仍在争论中。 【28题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段中““I had always assumed that autumn leaves were waste baskets,” said ecologist Dr. Wilkinson. “That’s what I was told as a student.” For decades, textbooks claimed that autumn colors were just a by-product of dying leaves. (生态学家Wilkinson博士说：“我一直认为秋天的叶子是废纸篓，这是我学生时代被告知的。”几十年来，教科书声称秋天的颜色只是叶子枯萎的副产品。)”可知，Wilkinson博士的话表明他接受的是过去普遍流传的观点，即落叶的颜色是无意义的副产品，这是提出了关于秋叶的一个普遍持有的观点。 【29题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“Dr. Hamilton assumed that trees with strong defenses might be able to protect themselves even further by letting egg-laying insects know what was in store for their eggs. By producing brilliant autumn colors, the trees advertised their harmfulness. (Hamilton博士认为，具有强大防御能力的树木可能通过让产卵昆虫知道它们的卵将面临什么来进一步保护自己。通过产生鲜艳的秋天颜色，树木宣传了它们的危害性。)”可知，根据Hamilton博士的说法，鲜艳的秋叶的功能是防止树木受到伤害。 【30题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中“The leaf-signal theory has drawn criticism, most recently from Dr. Hoch at the University of Wisconsin, who argues that bright leaves appear on trees that have no insects to warn off. (叶子信号理论已经招致了批评，最近的批评来自威斯康辛大学的Hoch博士，他认为明亮的叶子出现在没有昆虫需要警告的树上。)”可知，Hoch博士批评了鲜艳叶子与昆虫警告之间的联系。 【31题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第一段中“As trees turn gold and red in autumn, scientists are debating exactly what those colors are for. (当树木在秋天变成金色和红色时，科学家们正在争论这些颜色的确切用途。)”可知，文章开篇点明主题，随后介绍了Hamilton博士的“警告信号”理论和Hoch博士的“防晒”理论，体现了科学家们对秋叶颜色目的的争论。因此，文章主要是科学家们正在争论鲜艳秋叶颜色的可能目的。 D Why do countries vary in wealth? This fundamental economic question often arouses childlike curiosity. Traditional economic growth models emphasize the accumulation of production factors: labor and capital, and recently, technology or ideas. A country’s wealth is believed to increase with higher per-worker capital shares and more productive use of resources. However, this theory leaves a gap: why do some countries gain more of these factors than others? The 2024 Nobel Prize winners in economics argue that government quality is key. On October 14, 2024, three U.S.-based academics, Simon Johnson, James Robinson, and Daron Acemoglu, were awarded the Nobel Prize in Economics for their research on the historical and institutional factors contributing to global inequality. Their research stressed the need for strong institutions and the rule of law in promoting prosperity (繁荣) and reducing poverty, especially in countries troubled by dictatorship, where the ruler or the very few individuals typically exercise strict control over all aspects of society. The three academics explained that because of the highly unequal distribution of resources the countries may face the risk of social unrest and the majority of people may experience poverty. The prizewinners identified the historical roots of weak institutional environments that are characteristics of many low-income countries today. Their research undeniably demonstrated the importance of historical uniqueness, moving development economics away from abstract growth models. Their work was a break from theories assuming an unavoidable path to modernization based on the unusual experiences of western Europe. At a press conference, Robinson from the University of Chicago referred to his co-winners from MIT as his “best friends” and emphasized that economists do not have a cure-all or a silver bullet for solving social problems. Instead, ideas are important in terms of giving people ways to think about the problems in their society. Although the three academics may not have been able to fully provide an account of why some countries are rich and others poor, new generations of economists have a firm foundation established on their work. 32. What production factors do traditional economic growth models highlight? A. Ideas, shares and resources. B. Labor force, the capital city, and technology. C. Capital, technology, and shares. D. Labor force, money for investment, and ideas. 33. What does the underlined word “dictatorship” in paragraph 3 mean? A. Absolute power. B. Social unrest. C. Strict regulations. D. Limited resources. 34. Which statement will the prizewinners probably agree with? A. Economists clearly know how to deal with social issues. B. Weak institutional environments are significant in promoting prosperity. C. Western Europe’s experiences unnecessarily show the path to modernization. D. Historical and institutional factors have not accounted for global inequality. 35. Which can be the best title for the text? A. Strong Institutions to Reduce Poverty B. Complete Solution to Solving Social Problems C. New Discovery of Factors Affecting Prosperity D. Economic Growth Models and Global Inequality 【答案】32. D 33. A 34. C 35. C 【解析】 【导语】文章主要介绍传统经济增长模型对国家财富的解释，以及2024年诺贝尔经济学奖得主关于历史和制度因素影响国家繁荣的研究。 【32题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“Traditional economic growth models emphasize the accumulation of production factors: labor and capital, and recently, technology or ideas.(传统经济增长模型强调生产要素的积累：劳动力和资本，以及最近的技术或理念)”可知，传统经济增长模型强调的生产要素是劳动力、资本（投资资金）和理念。 【33题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第三段中的“especially in countries troubled by dictatorship, where the ruler or the very few individuals typically exercise strict control over all aspects of society.(尤其是在受dictatorship困扰的国家，在这些国家，统治者或极少数人通常对社会的各个方面行使严格的控制)”可知，划线词dictatorship指的是统治者或极少数人拥有绝对控制权的统治形式，即“绝对权力”。 【34题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段中的“Their work was a break from theories assuming an unavoidable path to modernization based on the unusual experiences of western Europe.(他们的研究打破了基于西欧特殊经历、假设现代化道路不可避免的理论)”可知，获奖者认为西欧的经历不一定能表明现代化的道路。 【35题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“Why do countries vary in wealth?(为什么国家的财富不同？)”、第二段“However, this theory leaves a gap: why do some countries gain more of these factors than others? The 2024 Nobel Prize winners in economics argue that government quality is key.(然而，这一理论留下了一个空白：为什么一些国家比其他国家获得更多的这些因素？2024年诺贝尔经济学奖得主认为，政府质量是关键)”以及最后一段“Although the three academics may not have been able to fully provide an account of why some countries are rich and others poor, new generations of economists have a firm foundation established on their work.(虽然这三位学者可能无法完全解释为什么有些国家富裕而有些国家贫穷，但新一代经济学家已经在他们的工作上拥有了坚实的基础)”可知，文章主要分析了各国财富不同的原因，给出了影响国家繁荣富裕因素的新启示。C选项“影响繁荣的因素的新发现”契合文章核心，适合作本文标题。 第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 There are so many definitions of wisdom. Simply put, wisdom is a mix of insight, commonsense, experience, and results to sound judgement. It is not merely a desirable quality but an absolute necessity in a world filled with chaos, controversy, and conflicts. ___36___. It shines our way through darkness. Growing up with fairy tales and fantasy movies, I always associated wisdom with Gandalf, Yoda, and Albus Dumbledore. Although these characters have given every one of us tons of inspiration, wisdom actually lies within ourselves. ___37___ And how? Embarking on new experiences is an avenue for acquiring wisdom. You will never grow from being in your comfort zone, which is why you need to get out of it. Do change your routine and experience as much as what life takes you! In fact, there are always several sides to a life story. To identify the truth, you need to be receptive to different views. ___38___. It is not emotion-based either. Train your mind to be a judgment-free space for ideas. Open-mindedness opens new pathways to profound insights. What if you are desperate for personal growth and improvement? ___39___The more time you spend with them, the more transfer of knowledge there will be. Your tutors can be whoever is wiser than you.

D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述智慧是我们前进道路上的指路明灯，并且探讨了如何才能获取智慧。 【36题详解】 根据上文“It is not merely a desirable quality but an absolute necessity in a world filled with chaos, controversy, and conflicts.(在一个充满混乱、争议和冲突的世界里，它不仅是一种可取的品质，而且是绝对必要的)”和下文“It shines our way through darkness.(它照亮我们穿越黑暗的道路)”可知，智慧可以为我们的世界导航，照亮前方的道路，所以，空处应该是将智慧比作灯塔。G项“为了在其中航行，智慧成为我们的指路明灯”承上启下，符合语境。故选G项。 【37题详解】 上文“Although these characters have given every one of us tons of inspiration, wisdom actually lies within ourselves.(虽然这些角色给了我们每个人无数的灵感，但智慧其实在于我们自己)”和下文“And how?(那怎么做呢？)” 说明虽然童话故事和魔幻电影里的角色让我们感受到智慧，但获取和运用智慧在于我们自己。空处应该进一步引出我们和智慧的关系。A项“个人需要把它发挥出来”承上启下，其中it指代前文提到的wisdom，且引出下文“个人怎样将智慧发挥出来”的内容。故选A项。 【38题详解】 上文“To identify the truth, you need to be receptive to different views.(为了确定真相，你需要接受不同的观点)”说明应该接受不同的观点。F项“永远不要把你的观点建立在最流行的观点上”承接上文，说明不应该只追随最流行的观点，并且和下文“It is not emotion-based either.(它也不是基于情感的)”相衔接，符合语境。故选F项。 【39题详解】 上文“What if you are desperate for personal growth and improvement?(如果你渴望个人成长和进步呢？)”提出假设，空处应该会对假设做出解答或说明。E项“要做到这一点，一个捷径就是找有智慧的人做你的导师”对上文的问题给出了回答，下文“The more time you spend with them, the more transfer of knowledge there will be.(你和他们相处的时间越长，学到的知识就越多)”中的them呼应wise people。故选E项。 【40题详解】 根据上文“Rome was not built in a day.(罗马不是一天建成的)”和下文“It is important to acknowledge that it takes a span of your life and continuous effort to mature in wisdom as you navigate life’s challenges.(重要的是要认识到，当你面对生活的挑战时，你需要一段时间的生活和不断的努力来获得成熟的智慧)”可知，此段讲获取智慧不是一蹴而就的，需要不断努力。D项“发展智慧不是一个目的地”承上启下，和前文结构一致，形成对比，引出下文。故选D项。 第三部分 语言运用(共两节，满分30分) 第一节(共15小题;每小题1分，满分15分) 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 Last term, my school organized a science competition.

I was often the only Chinese American at the swimming competitions and our team couldn’t afford good uniforms. However, my number one reason for wanting to quit was that I kept receiving “Honorable Mentions” (安慰奖). Any athlete knew that you didn’t want to have a bookshelf full of “Honorable Mentions”, which you got just because you showed up. One summer day, the day before a big 400-meter swim meet, I decided to tell my grandma that I was quitting the swim team. When I told her, she looked at me in the eyes and said, “Dear, remember these words ‘Quitters never win and winners never quit.’ Your grandmother didn’t raise losers or quitters. You go to that meet tomorrow, and you swim like you are a grandchild of mine, you hear?” Struggling to understand grandma’s words, I said nothing but “Yes, grandma.” The next day we arrived at the swim meet late, missing my group of swimmers in the 15/16 age group. My coach insisted that I be allowed to swim with the older group. I knew that she was including me in the race so that our journey to the meet would not be wasted, and she had no expectations at all that I would come in anything but eighth place, because there weren’t nine lanes (泳道). As I mounted the board, all the other girls looked at me. I quickly noticed that these girls were all here to do just one thing — beat me! All of a sudden, my grandma’s words rang in my head, “Quitters never win and winners never quit. You swim like you are a grandchild of mine.” “Yes, grandma, I will swim like I am a grandchild of yours,” I said to myself. 注意： (1)续写词数应为150个左右； (2)请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。 At the sound of the whistle (哨声), I threw myself into the pool. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ It was then that I heard the claps and cheers around me. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 At the sound of the whistle (哨声), I threw myself into the pool. Although I was swimming with older girls, I swam as fast as I could. I remembered what my grandma had said to me. I kicked hard and moved my arms with all my strength. It seemed that the water was helping me fly forward. Every time I looked up to breathe, I saw the other swimmers beside me. I knew that I must not give up. I pushed myself harder than ever before, trying to catch up with them. When I touched the wall, I had no idea what place I had got. I was too tired to think. It was then that I heard the claps and cheers around me. When I looked up at the scoreboard, I saw my name at the top! I had won the first place! I was so excited that I started crying. The coach hugged me and said that she was proud of me. It was my grandma’s words that gave me the power to win. I learned that winners never quit. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了作者作为一名游泳选手，因长期成绩不佳（仅获安慰奖）而萌生退意，但在奶奶“Quitters never win and winners never quit”的鼓励下，坚持参加比赛，并在比赛中拼尽全力，最终战胜年长选手、夺得冠军的故事。 【详解】1. 段落续写： ① 由第一段首句内容可知，第一段可描写比赛开始后作者如何克服劣势，将奶奶的话语化为动力，奋力拼搏追赶对手的过程。 ② 由第二段首句内容可知，第二段可描写作者触壁后发现夺冠的惊喜，以及教练的肯定和作者对奶奶话语的深刻感悟。 2. 续写线索：跳入水中 —— 奋力划水 —— 触壁冲刺 —— 听到欢呼 —— 发现胜利 —— 感悟坚持 3. 词汇激活 行为类 ①记起：remember/recall ②放弃：give up/quit ③拥抱我：hug me/embrace me 情绪类 ①兴奋：excited/wild with joy/thrilled ②自豪：be proud of/took pride in 【点睛】【高分句型1】I remembered what my grandma had said to me.(运用了what引导的宾语从句) 【高分句型2】I was so excited that I started crying.(运用了so...that引导的结果状语从句) 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $听力考试正式开始。This is Jerry speaking.

There was a beautiful garden with some flowers, and the tree, both the flowers and the tree gave the place a wonderful look, and they were the pride of the gardener. But no one knows that the flowers under the tree couldn't stand each other. The flowers hated the trees shadow because IT left them only just enough light to live. The tree, on the other hand, hated the flowers because they drank nearly all the water, leaving him just enough to live. The situation became so serious that the flowers decided to run out of all the water in the ground so that the tree would die. The tree fought back by not protecting the flowers from the hot sun, so they began to dry up. Soon the flowers were really weak and the tree was drawing up.

OurWomen & Wealth series was created as a way to address these specific needs. It’s not just about investing—it’s about empowering women to make informed decisions, build wealth, and prepare for retirement. NL: What are the top two or three things you discuss there? DA: Our topics include emotions surrounding money, protecting your family’s legacy, nutrition and health coaching, how to teach your children about money, and much more. NL: I haven’t heard of another financial planning company doing this. How can women get involved?

B “You learn a lot by almost dying,” David always says. In 2010, David, a sophomore from the medical school of Pennsylvania got very sick and the diagnosis was Castleman — a rare condition with approximately 7,000 new cases annually in the US. In hospital, David noticed curious red spots on his skin. He asked doctors what the blood spots meant. “They went out of their way to say they didn’t matter,” said David, but he would go on to prove he was on to something. Castleman hit David four more times over the next three years. David stayed alive only through intense chemotherapy (化学疗法). Despite the illness, he managed to graduate and began an MBA (Master of Business Administration) at Wharton School, where he founded the CDCN — a global initiative devoted to fighting Castleman. Many of his MBA classmates joined the cause. David hoped that adding a CEO mindset would enable him to improve his approach to curing himself. CDCN prioritized clinical trials that reused drugs the FDA (美国药监局) had already approved as safe. In 2013, another attack marked his closest experience with death yet. This time, David saved his own life. After examining his medical charts, he targeted an idea that researchers hadn’t yet explored: A protein (蛋白质) called VECF which controls blood vessel growth was rising at 10 times its normal level. David assumed that the red spots with every re-occurrence were a direct result of that protein rise. David asked his doctor to order Sirolimus, a drug approved to help fight the immune system when it activates against kidney transplants. He picked it up at a pharmacy. “A drug that could potentially save my life was hiding in plain sight,” he said. So far, David has been in remission from Castleman for more than six years, close to full strength. As an assistant professor at the University of Pennsylvania, he was running a clinical trial on the drug that has given him his life back. “So little time and money has been invested in these rare diseases like Castleman,” says David, “There’s tremendous opportunity to change that, there’s a lot of promising successes!” 24. What can we know about the CDCN? A. It’s a national organization in the USA. B. It enrolled members beyond the medical field. C. It was founded when David was a medical student. D. It prioritized clinical trials on newly-applied drugs. 25. According to the text, which one is TRUE? A. Sirolimus has certain effectiveness for Castleman. B. David suffered Castleman four times all together. C. There’re roughly 7,000 Castleman cases in the US. D. Red spots on David’s skin caused an increase in VECF levels. 26. What can be inferred from the last paragraph? A. David has recovered from Castleman completely. B. David has completed further research on Sirolimus. C. Sufficient investments are put in Castleman research. D. High likelihood of achievement is in Castleman research. 27. What can we learn from David’s experience? A. No pains, no gains. B. It’s never too late to learn. C. Actions speak louder than words. D. God helps those who help themselves. C As trees turn gold and red in autumn, scientists are debating exactly what those colors are for. “I had always assumed that autumn leaves were waste baskets,” said ecologist Dr. Wilkinson. “That’s what I was told as a student.” For decades, textbooks claimed that autumn colors were just a by-product of dying leaves. But in recent years, scientists have recognized that autumn colors probably play an important role in the life of many trees. Dr. Hamilton, from Oxford University, proposed that bright autumn leaves contain a message: they warn insects to leave them alone. In the fall, insects choose trees where they will lay their eggs. Then the next spring, the baby insects feed on the tree, often with damaging results. A tree can discourage these insects with poisons. Dr. Hamilton assumed that trees with strong defenses might be able to protect themselves even further by letting egg-laying insects know what was in store for their eggs. By producing brilliant autumn colors, the trees advertised their harmfulness. As insects evolved to avoid the brightest leaves, natural selection favored trees that could become even brighter. The leaf-signal theory has drawn criticism, most recently from Dr. Hoch at the University of Wisconsin, who argues that bright leaves appear on trees that have no insects to warn off. His recent work suggests that fall colors serve mainly as a sunscreen. Autumn leaves cannot capture all the sunlight striking them, and the leftover energy can build up in the leaf and cause damage to its tissue. Anthocyanins (花青素) that produce red and orange colors appear to protect autumn leaves by blocking some of the sunlight. “You may have a few instances where insects have some sort of relationship to color changes,” Dr. Hoch said, “but it’s almost certainly not a broad-based explanation. It doesn’t hold any water.” These arguments have not influenced Dr. Hamilton’s supporters, who argue that the leaf-signal theory is still worth investigating. But both sides agree that the debate is useful, because it has given them deeper admiration for this time of year. 28. What did Dr. Wilkinson present about autumn leaves in the first paragraph? A. A new discovery. B. A wide-ranging debate. C. A commonly-held view. D. A theoretical assumption. 29. What is the function of bright autumn leaves according to Dr. Hamilton? A. To attract certain insects. B. To prevent trees from harm. C. To store nutrients for the future. D. To maintain ecological balance. 30. Which of the following is TRUE according to paragraph 4? A. Dr. Hoch had a better understanding of the fall colors than Dr. Hamilton. B. Dr. Hoch’s work showed the only function of fall colors as a sunscreen. C. Dr. Hoch found autumn leaves are completely unable to get the sunshine. D. Dr. Hoch criticized the connection between bright leaves and insect warning. 31. What is the main idea of the text? A. Scientists have fully understood why autumn leaves change color. B. Scientists are debating the possible purposes of bright autumn colors. C. Autumn leaves change color mainly to protect themselves from insects. D. Autumn colors have been recognized as a useless by-product of dying leaves. D Why do countries vary in wealth? This fundamental economic question often arouses childlike curiosity. Traditional economic growth models emphasize the accumulation of production factors: labor and capital, and recently, technology or ideas. A country’s wealth is believed to increase with higher per-worker capital shares and more productive use of resources. However, this theory leaves a gap: why do some countries gain more of these factors than others? The 2024 Nobel Prize winners in economics argue that government quality is key. On October 14, 2024, three U.S.-based academics, Simon Johnson, James Robinson, and Daron Acemoglu, were awarded the Nobel Prize in Economics for their research on the historical and institutional factors contributing to global inequality. Their research stressed the need for strong institutions and the rule of law in promoting prosperity (繁荣) and reducing poverty, especially in countries troubled by dictatorship, where the ruler or the very few individuals typically exercise strict control over all aspects of society. The three academics explained that because of the highly unequal distribution of resources the countries may face the risk of social unrest and the majority of people may experience poverty. The prizewinners identified the historical roots of weak institutional environments that are characteristics of many low-income countries today. Their research undeniably demonstrated the importance of historical uniqueness, moving development economics away from abstract growth models. Their work was a break from theories assuming an unavoidable path to modernization based on the unusual experiences of western Europe. At a press conference, Robinson from the University of Chicago referred to his co-winners from MIT as his “best friends” and emphasized that economists do not have a cure-all or a silver bullet for solving social problems. Instead, ideas are important in terms of giving people ways to think about the problems in their society. Although the three academics may not have been able to fully provide an account of why some countries are rich and others poor, new generations of economists have a firm foundation established on their work. 32. What production factors do traditional economic growth models highlight? A. Ideas, shares and resources. B. Labor force, the capital city, and technology. C. Capital, technology, and shares. D. Labor force, money for investment, and ideas. 33. What does the underlined word “dictatorship” in paragraph 3 mean? A. Absolute power. B. Social unrest. C. Strict regulations. D. Limited resources. 34. Which statement will the prizewinners probably agree with? A. Economists clearly know how to deal with social issues. B. Weak institutional environments are significant in promoting prosperity. C. Western Europe’s experiences unnecessarily show the path to modernization. D. Historical and institutional factors have not accounted for global inequality. 35. Which can be the best title for the text? A. Strong Institutions to Reduce Poverty B. Complete Solution to Solving Social Problems C. New Discovery of Factors Affecting Prosperity D. Economic Growth Models and Global Inequality 第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 There are so many definitions of wisdom.

I was often the only Chinese American at the swimming competitions and our team couldn’t afford good uniforms. However, my number one reason for wanting to quit was that I kept receiving “Honorable Mentions” (安慰奖). Any athlete knew that you didn’t want to have a bookshelf full of “Honorable Mentions”, which you got just because you showed up. One summer day, the day before a big 400-meter swim meet, I decided to tell my grandma that I was quitting the swim team. When I told her, she looked at me in the eyes and said, “Dear, remember these words ‘Quitters never win and winners never quit.’ Your grandmother didn’t raise losers or quitters. You go to that meet tomorrow, and you swim like you are a grandchild of mine, you hear?” Struggling to understand grandma’s words, I said nothing but “Yes, grandma.” The next day we arrived at the swim meet late, missing my group of swimmers in the 15/16 age group. My coach insisted that I be allowed to swim with the older group. I knew that she was including me in the race so that our journey to the meet would not be wasted, and she had no expectations at all that I would come in anything but eighth place, because there weren’t nine lanes (泳道). As I mounted the board, all the other girls looked at me. I quickly noticed that these girls were all here to do just one thing — beat me! All of a sudden, my grandma’s words rang in my head, “Quitters never win and winners never quit. You swim like you are a grandchild of mine.” “Yes, grandma, I will swim like I am a grandchild of yours,” I said to myself. 注意： (1)续写词数应为150个左右； (2)请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。 At the sound of the whistle (哨声), I threw myself into the pool. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ It was then that I heard the claps and cheers around me. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
