B Most 10-year-olds spend their free time playing video games, but Ernesto Gael Hernandez, from Brownsville, Texas, is busy running his own 3D printing business and dreaming of buying his mom a house someday. What began as a fun way to make custom keychains for classmates has quickly grown into a successful small business. Based in his home workshop, Ernesto creates various customized items, such as keychains, whistles, can openers and stress-relief toys for people with anxiety and ADHD (多动症). This idea first took shape several months ago, when he told his mother that he wanted to buy a 3D printer. Instead of simply buying him a machine, she encouraged him to work and save for it himself. He saved $500 from chores to buy his first printer. It was then that he came up with the idea of making money from 3D printing, thus launching his brand, Prestige 3D Labs. He even taught himself to create custom designs by watching online tutorials (教程). Business has grown fast. He has earned around $1,500 in profit so far and demand became so strong that he partnered with a local Brownsville clothing store called Jungle to help sell his creations. Now, three printers run regularly to keep up with orders coming in. Despite business success, Ernesto sticks to a tight schedule to balance his business, schoolwork and football training. With printing tasks arranged early in the morning, during school days and before practice, he succeeds in running his business steadily. For Ernesto’s mother, Samantha Quezada, the business has become more than just a way for her son to earn money. “It’s a little bit stressful, but honestly I enjoy we get to do it together,” Quezada said. “It is part of our quality time.” But for Ernesto, his motivation is surprisingly heartfelt. “I just like doing it because I want to invest in a house for my mom when I grow older,” Ernesto said. 24. What does Ernesto’s 3D printing business mainly do? A. It prints keychains for classmates. B. It produces daily household items. C. It creates a range of mood-lifting products. D. It tailors various products to customers’ needs. 25. What inspired Ernesto to start his business? A. His dream of buying a house for his mother. B. His experience of saving money to buy the printer. C. The decision to make keychains for his classmates. D. The high profit from selling all kinds of small products. 26. Which of the following can best describe Ernesto? A. Ambitious and organized. B. Caring and generous. C. Hard-working and humorous. D. Adventurous and creative. 27. What is the best title for the passage? A. Hard Work Creates a Teen’s Success B. Business Builds Close Family Bonds C. 3D Skills Open a Whole New World D. 3D Printing Shapes a Teen’s Dream House C Insect-size drones are too small to carry around complex navigation systems. To help tiny autonomous fliers find their way home, researchers are taking their clues from honeybees with the Bee-Nav, described today in Nature. A honeybee leaving the hive first takes a short learning flight to memorize nearby landmarks, explains the study’s lead author Guido de Croon. As a bee flies away, “it keeps track of the direction and speed of its movement,” de Croon says, in a process called path integration. Because path integration tends to gather tiny measurement errors over time, the insect relies on the memorized landmarks to correct its course as it gets back home. De Croon and his colleagues copied this workflow. A drone performs a learning flight, capturing scenery with a camera. It trains a neural (神经的) network to map images to homes, creating a safe zone. Using path integration, it returns, if within the zone, the network guides it home. The Bee-Nav does this using a computer the size of a credit card that runs neural nets with between 3.4 and 42.3 kilobytes (千字节) of memory — thousands of times less than conventional mapping setups use. “What I find especially exciting is how little computation is needed. This is the kind of approach that makes serious outdoor arrangements possible.” says Sarah Bergbreiter, a mechanical engineer. De Croon’s team is still working out a few challenges for the platform. “Platforms running Bee-Nav will also need local barrier avoidance and planning capability if the environment is crowded or dynamic,” says Sean Humbert, a mechanical engineer at the University of Colorado Boulder, who was not involved in the study. But even now, de Croon says, the Bee-Nav can make autonomous, outdoor drones smaller and more power-efficient. “We could easily put it on a 50-gram, even 30-gram drone,” de Croon claims. Scaling autonomous drones further down to the size of actual bees, he notes, would require solving other fundamental problems like contracting batteries. “But we hope when these problems are solved in the long term, we will have the intelligence ready to match that,” de Croon says. 28. What is the purpose of the research on Bee-Nav? A. To copy bees’ daily flight workflow. B. To adjust the overall size of micro drones. C. To facilitate the navigation of tiny drones. D. To improve drones’ load-carrying performance. 29. Why does the author describe the bee’s navigation before introducing Bee-Nav? A. To show how bees learn to fly around their hive. B. To prove tiny drones have trouble with navigation. C. To show that bees are more intelligent than drones. D. To explain the biological inspiration behind the Bee-Nav. 30. What is Sarah Bergbreiter’s attitude towards Bee-Nav? A. Doubtful. B. Favorable. C. Uncaring. D. Interested. 31. What can we infer from the last paragraph? A. Drones as small as real bees are already widely used outdoors. B. The navigation technology for tiny drones still needs further tests. C. Bee-Nav is designed specifically for 30-gram to 50-gram drones. D. It is tough to make batteries smaller for bee-sized drones currently. D Nick Epley was commuting (通勤) to work at the University of Chicago when he looked across the train and wondered: Why are all these people sitting side by side ignoring each other? Epley, a professor of behavioral science, thought about how very lonely people are, and he challenged himself to strike up a conversation with the woman sitting next to him. It changed his life — and led him to write the book A Little More Social: How Small Choices Create Unexpected Happiness, Health and Connection. After reading it, I decided to try the experiment myself. I’ve always been a fairly outgoing person, but the idea of talking to strangers and befriending acquaintances still made me feel anxious. I asked Epley whether he ever felt that fear, too. “I still do sometimes, but it dulls a lot,” Epley said. Of course, it isn’t always advisable to talk to strangers. Epley said you should never do so if you feel unsafe. But in dozens of studies involving more than 30,000 people, he and other researchers have found that people are happier when they are more social, even if they consider themselves introverts (内向人), or fear that reaching out to another person will be embarrassing. In one study, Epley found that after having a conversation with a stranger, people predict that a future conversation with another stranger will be more enjoyable. But that effect fades pretty quickly. “It’s not like you go out and have a nice conversation with somebody in the elevator and the anxiety disappears,” Epley said. The main reason people feel uneasy about socializing, he said, is that we focus on the wrong thing. We worry about what we’ll say rather than how we’ll say it. This was certainly true for me. I worried more about whether I would remember a neighbor’s name than I did about whether I would seem kind. But the research shows that if I’m warm and outgoing, it doesn’t really matter that much what I say. If you’re friendly first, that will probably be returned. 32. What did the conversation with the woman serve as for Nick? A. A reminder of friendship. B. An inspiration for a book. C. A source of happiness. D. An introduction to a new world. 33. What does the underlined word “dulls” in paragraph 3 most probably mean? A. Weakens. B. Ends. C. Grows. D. Exists. 34. What can we learn from the passage? A. The research result does not apply to introverts. B. The positive effect of chatting with strangers lasts forever. C. People often fail to remember what to say when facing strangers. D. The author also focused on the wrong thing when talking to strangers. 35. What might the author agree with? A. One good turn deserves another. B. Loose lips sink ships. C. A still tongue makes a wise head. D. Action speaks louder than words. 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。 Have you ever ended up in a quarrel just because of poor communication? Effective communication helps us express ideas and understand others better. 36 Here are several practical tips for you to improve your communication skills. Think carefully before you start talking. Before sharing your opinions, sort out your ideas and find your key points. It’s wise to stick to two or three main ideas in one talk. 37 If necessary, write down your key points in advance so you won’t get lost during the talk. Try to put yourself in the audience’s shoes. When you talk to others, think about their background, interest and knowledge about the topic. 38 Ask yourself: “What information would I want to get if I were them?” 39 Your hand movements, facial expressions and posture all send messages. Some open hand movements can make your speech more persuasive, while closed gestures may make listeners unwilling to continue the talk. Natural and gentle body language works best. Learn to listen actively. Communication is not one-sided. Active listening lets you know whether your message is received correctly. 40 You can also ask listeners to repeat your words in their own words, which helps find misunderstandings in time. A. Keep an eye on non-verbal signals B. You should avoid using any gestures while speaking C. You can ask listeners for feedback to check understanding D. It is helpful to imagine you are in your listeners’ position E. It is necessary to prepare long speeches for every communication F. This helps you keep to the point and express your purpose clearly G. Good communicators can build better relationships and reduce conflicts 第三部分 语言运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 I clearly remember that night many years ago.

Doing something meaningful can also gain special pleasure. When the final bell rang, the students were reminded that there was no school on Monday — Labor Day. “Enjoy your extra day off,” said the teacher to her class. An extra day of fun suited Kayla just fine. She loved breaks. She wanted to go out to play with her friends. When the school bus dropped Kayla off, she ran into the house happily. “How was school, Kayla?” asked her mom. “It was great, Mom. I am excited about no school on Monday.” “You just started back to school two weeks ago. Already in need of a break, huh?” asked Kayla’s mom with a laugh. Kayla slept in the next morning. Saturday was her favorite day of the week. It rained most of the day, so Kayla enjoyed playing video games inside. On Sunday, her friends came over and they played basketball for several hours. Then it was Labor Day, you know, the extra day off that Kayla was so looking forward to. But Kayla was awakened early that morning by her dad. He told Kayla that in honor of Labor Day, the family would be cleaning both inside and outside the house. Kayla couldn’t believe it. This was a holiday, a day when she was supposed to be enjoying fresh lemonade while playing in her tree house. As Kayla wiped her eyes, she began to wonder if this was just a bad dream. “Kayla, your breakfast is ready. We have a lot of work to do today. Let’s get a move on,” said Kayla’s mom. As she sat down at the kitchen table, Kayla asked her parents, “Are you serious about working today? Isn’t Labor Day a holiday?” “Yes, Kayla. It is,” replied her dad. “But your mom and I thought working hard today would make you appreciate why Labor Day is observed in the first place.” 注意： （1）续写词数应为150个左右； （2）请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 At first, Kayla felt disappointed at her parents’ plan for the holiday. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ But things began to change as she was doing the housework. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 11 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $第一节听下面五段录音。每段录音后有一个小题，从题中所给的ABC3个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段录音后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段录音播放两遍。现在你有5秒钟的时间阅读第一小题的有关内容。听下面的录音，回答第一小题。Marie strikes me as an efficient person.

D 25. B 26. A 27. D【导语】本文主要介绍了一位10岁男孩Ernesto通过自学3D打印技术成功创业，并梦想以此赚钱为母亲买房的励志故事。 【24题详解】细节理解题。根据第二段“Based in his home workshop, Ernesto creates various customized items, such as keychains, whistles, can openers and stress-relief toys for people with anxiety and ADHD (多动症). (在家中的工作室里，Ernesto制作各种定制物品，例如钥匙链、哨子、开瓶器，以及为患有焦虑症和多动症人群设计的减压玩具)”可知，他的业务主要是根据客户需求定制各种产品。 【25题详解】细节理解题。根据第三段“He saved $500 from chores to buy his first printer. It was then that he came up with the idea of making money from 3D printing, thus launching his brand, Prestige 3D Labs. (他通过做家务攒下500美元买了第一台打印机。就在那时，他萌生了通过3D打印赚钱的想法，从而推出了他的品牌Prestige 3D Labs)”可知，激发他创业的直接原因是他通过自己攒钱买打印机的经历。 【26题详解】推理判断题。根据第五段“Despite business success, Ernesto sticks to a tight schedule to balance his business, schoolwork and football training. With printing tasks arranged early in the morning, during school days and before practice, he succeeds in running his business steadily. (尽管生意成功，Ernesto仍坚持严格的日程安排，以平衡他的生意、学业和足球训练。通过在清晨、上学日和训练前安排打印任务，他成功地稳定经营着自己的生意)”可知，他勤奋且有条理；再根据最后一段““I just like doing it because I want to invest in a house for my mom when I grow older,” Ernesto said. (Ernesto说：“我只是喜欢做这件事，因为我想长大后给妈妈投资买一套房子。”)”可知，他非常有抱负。 【27题详解】主旨大意题。根据第一段“Most 10-year-olds spend their free time playing video games, but Ernesto Gael Hernandez, from Brownsville, Texas, is busy running his own 3D printing business and dreaming of buying his mom a house someday. (大多数10岁的孩子都把空闲时间花在玩电子游戏上，但来自德克萨斯州布朗斯维尔的Ernesto Gael Hernandez正忙着经营自己的3D打印生意，并梦想有一天给妈妈买一套房子)”以及全文内容可知，文章主要讲述Ernesto利用3D打印技术创业，并努力实现为母亲买房的梦想，因此“3D打印塑造青少年梦想中的房子”最能概括全文，适合作为文章标题。 28. C 29. D 30. B 31. D【导语】本文介绍了科研团队受蜜蜂导航机制启发，开发出了适用于昆虫级微型无人机的低功耗导航系统Bee-Nav，该系统大幅降低了导航所需的计算量，为微型无人机户外自主飞行提供了可能，同时也指出目前该技术仍存在需要进一步突破的方向。 【28题详解】细节理解题。根据第一段“Insect-size drones are too small to carry around complex navigation systems. To help tiny autonomous fliers find their way home, researchers are taking their clues from honeybees with the Bee-Nav, described today in Nature. (昆虫大小的无人机体积太小，无法携带复杂的导航系统。为了帮助微型自主飞行器找到回家的路，研究人员从蜜蜂身上获得线索，研发了Bee-Nav，这在《自然》期刊上有所描述。)”可知，研究Bee-Nav的目的是帮助微型无人机解决导航问题，为微型无人机的导航提供便利。 【29题详解】推理判断题。根据第二段“A honeybee leaving the hive first takes a short learning flight to memorize nearby landmarks, explains the study’s lead author Guido de Croon. As a bee flies away, “it keeps track of the direction and speed of its movement,” de Croon says, in a process called path integration. Because path integration tends to gather tiny measurement errors over time, the insect relies on the memorized landmarks to correct its course as it gets back home. (该研究的主要作者Guido de Croon解释说，一只离开蜂巢的蜜蜂首先会进行短暂的学习飞行，以记住附近的地标。de Croon说，当蜜蜂飞走时，“它会跟踪自己运动的方向和速度”，这一过程称为路径积分。因为随着时间的推移，路径积分往往会积累微小的测量误差，所以昆虫在回家时依靠记忆中的地标来纠正其路线。)”可知，第二段介绍蜜蜂依靠路径积分结合记忆地标校正路线的导航机制，再根据第三段中“De Croon and his colleagues copied this workflow. (de Croon和他的同事复刻了这一工作流程。)”可推知，作者在介绍Bee-Nav前描述蜜蜂的导航方式，是为了解释Bee-Nav的生物学灵感来源。 【30题详解】推理判断题。根据第四段Sarah Bergbreiter的话“What I find especially exciting is how little computation is needed. This is the kind of approach that makes serious outdoor arrangements possible. (让我特别兴奋的是它只需要极少的计算量。这种方法让大规模户外部署成为了可能。)”可知，Sarah对Bee-Nav持支持赞赏的态度。 【31题详解】推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Scaling autonomous drones further down to the size of actual bees, he notes, would require solving other fundamental problems like contracting batteries. (他指出，要将自主无人机进一步缩小到真实蜜蜂的大小，还需要解决电池小型化这类基础问题。)”可推知，目前给蜜蜂大小的无人机制造体积足够小的电池还是一件很困难的事。 32. B 33. A 34. D 35. A 【导语】本文讲述教授Epley主动与陌生人交谈后创作社交相关书籍，作者亲身实践并结合研究指出：多社交使人快乐，人们害怕搭话是因过度纠结话术，友善态度比话语内容更关键。 【32题详解】细节理解题。根据第二段中的“and he challenged himself to strike up a conversation with the woman sitting next to him. It changed his life — and led him to write the book A Little More Social: How Small Choices Create Unexpected Happiness, Health and Connection.(于是他鼓起勇气，主动和坐在身旁的女士攀谈起来。这件事改变了他的生活，还促使他写了《多一点社交：微小选择如何带来意想不到的快乐、健康与联结》这本书。)”可知，这次交谈成为了他撰写该书的灵感来源。 【33题详解】词句猜测题。根据第三段画线词“dulls”前面的“I asked Epley whether he ever felt that fear, too.(我问Epley是否也曾感到那种恐惧。)”以及Epley的回复“I still do sometimes(我有时仍然会感到恐惧)”可知，Epley承认恐惧有时仍会存在；“dulls”在其后but的分句中作谓语，前后存在转折关系，可推断恐惧的程度大大降低，因此“dulls”含有“减弱”之意，与选项中的weakens相对应。 【34题详解】推理判断题。根据第五段中的“The main reason people feel uneasy about socializing, he said, is that we focus on the wrong thing. We worry about what we’ll say rather than how we’ll say it. This was certainly true for me.(他表示，人们在社交时感到不安的主要原因是我们关注错了重点。我们总担心自己要说什么，却忽略了表达方式。我自己就深有体会。)”可推知，作者本人也同样关注了错误的事情——过分担心谈话内容而非自己的态度。 【35题详解】推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“If you’re friendly first, that will probably be returned.(如果你先友善待人，那么这种友善很可能会得到回报。)”可知，作者认为主动付出的友好往往会得到对方的回应，选项中的“One good turn deserves another.”表示“善有善报、礼尚往来”，与作者的观点一致。 七选五GFDAC 36.前文介绍有效沟通的作用，后文引出下文技巧。G选项“善于沟通的人可以建立更好的人际关系，减少冲突”承接上文，介绍有效沟通的好处，自然引出下文建议。 37.本段主题：说话前梳理思路。空格前说一次谈话抓住2-3个核心观点。F选项“这能帮你紧扣主题，清晰表达你的目的”，This指代前面“抓住核心观点”这件事，承接上文。 38.本段主题：站在听众角度思考。D选项“换位思考，想象自己处在听众的位置会很有帮助”，和后文问句“What information would I want to get if I were them?”呼应。 39.为本段小标题。本段介绍手势、肢体动作等非语言信息。A选项“留意非语言信号”概括整段内容。 40.本段主题：积极倾听。前文说积极倾听可以判断信息是否传达到位。C选项“你可以向听众寻求反馈，检验理解程度”，和后一句让听者复述内容并列，都是检验沟通效果的方法。 完形填空41-45.

She was against the annoying plan from the bottom of her heart, but she had no choice. Sighing heavily, Kayla’s eyes were filled with disappointment. First, Kayla was arranged to wash the breakfast dishes. After that, she was asked to give their puppy a bath. She knew it was a hard task, which demanded lots of energy, patience and care from her. She began the work with great unwillingness. But things began to change as she was doing the housework. Brushing the puppy, she found it was a lot of fun with so many soap bubbles. Then it was on to yard work where Kayla helped to pick up sticks. She pretended the small sticks were basketballs, and shot them into a large trash can. So the work was done with great pleasure.

It’s an overused piece of advice, but it’s the key. As long as you keep writing, you’ll make progress. 【Text10】M: One by one, volunteers repair toys that show the marks of use. They sew clothing, brush fur and hair, add filling and dress the toys. This is the work of the Hospital for Soft Toys, a project in Venezuela’s capital, Caracas. The effort began with a mother’s question: What do you do with all the toys once children outgrow them? Mirady Acosta is an architect who represents the Hospital for Soft Toys. She said the idea came from a teacher named Lilian Gluck. In 2017, Gluck was looking for something to do with her children’s toys as they grew older. She didn’t want to throw them away. She decided to wash them, fix them and donate them to children in the University Hospital of Caracas. So, a few months later, Gluck opened the Hospital for Soft Toys. It is a nonprofit foundation that also collects and repairs other toys. The foundation receives donations that include school supplies, shoes and food. Silvia Heiber has volunteered for almost three years. She said that smoothing a soft toy’s fur or fixing a doll’s hair is helpful for the volunteers. “By doing this, all of us who come here are in therapy, a kind of therapy based on supporting one another,” Heiber said. On some days, it seems there are not enough toys to repair. But then someone arrives at the door with more boxes and bags full of toys. The toys are delivered not only to hospitals and schools in poor areas, but also to homes for older people. 2 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
