On my first Chinese calligraphy class, my teacher asked me to write down my name. After I finished, he said simply, “Now I will teach you how to make it look beautiful.” I was suddenly filled with surprise.
I grew up in Singapore and never felt comfortable with my Chinese name. My parents are of Chinese origin, but they could not speak Mandarin (普通话). Since they knew little about Chinese characters, they turned to fortune tellers to choose my name. They picked each character according to the perfect number of strokes (笔画), which was believed to bring good luck. Generally speaking, Chinese names can be very poetic. However, mine was not. To my shame, the three characters of my Chinese name roughly mean “old”, “barley” and “warm”. My personal experience and cultural background had always been confusing for me.
At the age of 18, I went to the US for college. There, I learned to think critically and express myself creatively. This helped me break away from the strict rules that had shaped my school life in Singapore’s highly competitive education system, and somehow, I also gave up part of my cultural identity. I hoped to be accepted by local people, so I started to use an American accent (口音)and stopped using my Chinese name. After living in the US for 14 years, I finally decided to learn Chinese calligraphy. I thought it was a good chance to reconnect with my cultural roots.
The core of learning calligraphy is to copy the skills of ancient masters so as to improve one’s own writing. Every week, my teacher would check my work and give comments. Once he told me, “You need to be braver. Your biggest problem is that you cannot write powerful strokes.” For many years, I had tried to show others that I was well-adapted and confident, even though I felt unconfident inside. Yet my calligraphy writing clearly showed my true inner self.
I started learning calligraphy to reconnect with my cultural tradition, but what I truly gained was a chance to find my true self. That first class made me realize that the parts I once felt ashamed of could become beautiful — and I could change and improve myself. I finally understand that calligraphy does not merely teach me how to copy others’ work. More importantly, it helps me know and understand myself better.
4. What standard guided the selection of the author’s Chinese name?
A. Poetic sound patterns. B. Ideal symbolic pictures.
C. Lucky stroke counts. D. Positive Chinese meanings.
5. Why did the author adopt an American accent?
A. To break with tradition. B. To fit into the community.
C. To achieve academic success. D. To facilitate language learning.
6. What have we learned about the author’s experience with calligraphy?
A. It showed her inner self. B. It improved her public image.
C. It presented no challenge to her. D. It improved her copying skills.
7. What has the author learned from calligraphy?
A. Fortune favors the brave. B. Accept who you truly are.
C. Our roots define our identity. D. Planning is good, but doing is better.
C
“Using AI at work is great, but if we don’t slow down and think, it might make things bad for workers,” some senior workforce experience leaders talked about AI. They think AI can help people work better and be more creative. But they also worry that if we don’t plan well, it might make work less human.
There are many ways to see how good work is done, and leaders in our study focused on the importance of creativity and hard work in creating good work. Nearly 70% of leaders we spoke to believe that AI can help workers be more creative. It gives people new ideas that make their work better. However, 42% worry that if workers depend too much on AI, they might not work as carefully as they should. Being careful means being correct, doing things completely, and having different ways of thinking to make the work really good.
Perhaps the biggest worry about AI is its impact on human connection. Over a third of conversations think AI can free up time for us to have better talks and spend more time together. But not everyone is happy about this, with 41% of leaders believing AI will weaken the quality of human connections. These bosses are concerned that we might depend too much on machines, especially for important moments. Until now, what made these moments special was the personal care and understanding that come from people. They think moments without technology have a warmth and feeling that machines might not be able to give.
AI is exciting, but we need to be careful and think about how it affects workers. We should focus on making AI work with people, not against them.
8. What can we learn about using AI from the first paragraph?
A. It needs no planning in advance.
B. It can not improve creativity at work.
C. It is the only method to increase work speed.
D. It might have bad influences if not carefully used.
9. What do 42% of the leaders concern about workers relying too much on AI?
A. Workers will work with less care. B. Workers will become less creative.
C. Workers will not complete their studies. D. Workers themselves will stop thinking.
10. How did the use of AI probably influence human connections?
A. It will bring personal care and understanding.
B. It will take away the warmth of human care.
C. It will depend too much on human connections.
D. It will strengthen the quality of human connections.
11. Who is the passage probably written for?
A. Workers. B. Researchers. C. Leaders. D. Teenagers.
D
Why Do Millennials (千禧一代) Keep Changing Jobs?
Millennials have been labelled as the “job-hopping generation”. In fact, a recent survey showed that 49% of millennials would leave their job within the next two years! Observers from older generations may think it is caused by the youth’s laziness. However, if we search deeper, there is more than meets the eye.
Instead of the traditional and practical reasons of changing jobs, such as to get better salaries or greater job stability (稳定), many millennials are inspired by value-driven goals. For example, more have to seek new opportunities whenever they lack a sense of belonging in their present jobs. Additionally, some also leave their positions for companies which better suit their value system. Therefore, it is clear that many millennials do not only consider their jobs as a source of income, but in fact, seek meaning and professional achievement in their daily jobs.
Clearly, the fearlessness of millennials in seeking job opportunities has been inspired by new business models. With the rise of online platforms, millennials who prefer work-life balance and flexibility have been attracted towards such jobs. Moreover, the increase of social media has also created more career paths. From food and travel bloggers to YouTube content creators, more millennials are leaving boring desk-bound jobs to look for more untraditional, but certainly attractive, careers.
However, people have different opinions on job-hopping. While some employers value rich experience and skills that job-hopping brings about, many of them still look down upon job-hopping. Some even argue in disappointment that the youths of today are lazy, unable to bear hardships and too self-centered.
The former American President Jimmy Carter once said, “Human identity is no longer defined by what one does but by what one owns.” Indeed, his comment still rings true today. Rather than allow traditional models of success in society to define our youths, the millennial generation should be encouraged to define new horizons of success by making the right career choices guided by the right values.
12. Why are Millennials more likely to move to new jobs?
A. Because they are forced by their parents.
B. Because they hate stress from present jobs.
C. Because they want to realize their self-worth.
D. Because they need higher income and position.
13. What’s paragraph 3 mainly about?
A. The rapid development of social media promotes new career paths.
B. There are fewer professions available to Millennials on the Internet.
C. There are factors contributing to Millennials’ flexible job-changing.
D. The tiring and boring jobs prevent Millennials staying in one position.
14. What may those in disagreement with job-changing think of Millennials?
A. Brave and noble.
B. Lazy and self-centered.
C. Anxious and unconfident.
D. Creative and hard-working.
15. What is the author’s attitude towards Millennials’ career choice?
A. Negative. B. Doubtful. C. Positive. D. Concerned.
第二节 七选五(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)
根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Food Technology is an important school subject, but it has become less popular in recent years, as traditional “academic” subjects attract more attention. ____16____ As a Food Technology teacher, I strongly believe that it is time for us to improve and update this subject.
Learning Food Technology helps students develop practical problem-solving abilities and allows them to make better decisions about their eating habits. However, this subject needs to change to fit modern social needs. ____17____ Instead, a new food tech course should include the latest cooking skills and new ideas. We need a new teaching plan that focuses on fresh and seasonal food materials as well as different food styles from around the world.
Nowadays, students can share their home-made food recipes on social media. This gives us a good chance to add modern technology to food tech classes. Online platforms are not only used to collect information but also help improve cooking teaching. We can ask students to design simple apps for planning daily meals. ____18____
In my new design of Food Technology classes, cultural inclusion is also of great importance. We are now living in a society with different cultures, where people have very different eating habits. By learning about various food traditions, students can understand healthy eating from different cultural backgrounds. ____19____ It is necessary for students to respect and appreciate cultural differences shown by different foods. This way of teaching can help students build understanding and care for others, broaden their cooking knowledge and encourage them to try new food.
____20____ Perhaps we will train more future cooks, health experts and food researchers, who are ready to create new ways to solve food-related problems in the world.
A. Cooking can bridge differences.
B. Each dish tells a unique cultural story.
C. Or we can engage them in interactive cooking lessons.
D. Gone, after all, are the days of simply boiling cabbage.
E. To achieve that, however, we’ll need more devoted educators.

Educational technology such as apps can help students with time management, study skills, homework and more. Below is a list of apps for college students advised by educational technology experts. The need of every student is different and experts suggest that students try out several apps to find the right one. Unless costs are mentioned in the app descriptions below, these learning tools are free to users:
Blackboard App. A popular learning management system. Blackboard is used at many colleges across the U.S. It allows students to get coursework for online classes or in-person classes. Students can complete homework and tests, view grades and more.
Duolingo. Advertising itself as “ the world’s best way to learn a language”, Duolingo offers lessons in more than 35 languages, helping users with speaking, reading, listening, writing, grammar and vocabulary. Duolingo offers both free and paid versions, the second one with a free advertisement experience and off-line way to lessons.
Evernote. A note taking and task management system that offers the ability to sync (同步) across it. Evernote allows users to create to-do lists and change documents into a digital form through a camera. Evernote is free, though a top version costs $7.99 a month or $69.99 a year.
College mobile apps. Apps specially designed for college students have become fairly common among U.S. college students. While these apps may be different college by college, users can often find school maps, news, safety information, important events and more.

【导语】文章介绍了专家推荐的几款大学生教育类应用,涵盖课程管理、语言学习、笔记同步及校园服务等功能,指出学生需求各异,建议多尝试以找到适合自己的工具,且多数工具免费。
【1题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章Evernote部分中的“Evernote allows users to create to-do lists and change documents into a digital form through a camera.(Evernote允许用户创建待办事项列表,并通过摄像头将文件转换为数字形式。)”可知,如果想制作待办事项列表,应使用Evernote。选项C符合文意。
【2题详解】

On my first Chinese calligraphy class, my teacher asked me to write down my name. After I finished, he said simply, “Now I will teach you how to make it look beautiful.” I was suddenly filled with surprise.
I grew up in Singapore and never felt comfortable with my Chinese name. My parents are of Chinese origin, but they could not speak Mandarin (普通话). Since they knew little about Chinese characters, they turned to fortune tellers to choose my name. They picked each character according to the perfect number of strokes (笔画), which was believed to bring good luck. Generally speaking, Chinese names can be very poetic. However, mine was not. To my shame, the three characters of my Chinese name roughly mean “old”, “barley” and “warm”. My personal experience and cultural background had always been confusing for me.
At the age of 18, I went to the US for college. There, I learned to think critically and express myself creatively. This helped me break away from the strict rules that had shaped my school life in Singapore’s highly competitive education system, and somehow, I also gave up part of my cultural identity. I hoped to be accepted by local people, so I started to use an American accent (口音)and stopped using my Chinese name. After living in the US for 14 years, I finally decided to learn Chinese calligraphy. I thought it was a good chance to reconnect with my cultural roots.
The core of learning calligraphy is to copy the skills of ancient masters so as to improve one’s own writing. Every week, my teacher would check my work and give comments. Once he told me, “You need to be braver. Your biggest problem is that you cannot write powerful strokes.” For many years, I had tried to show others that I was well-adapted and confident, even though I felt unconfident inside. Yet my calligraphy writing clearly showed my true inner self.
I started learning calligraphy to reconnect with my cultural tradition, but what I truly gained was a chance to find my true self. That first class made me realize that the parts I once felt ashamed of could become beautiful — and I could change and improve myself. I finally understand that calligraphy does not merely teach me how to copy others’ work. More importantly, it helps me know and understand myself better.
4. What standard guided the selection of the author’s Chinese name?
A. Poetic sound patterns. B. Ideal symbolic pictures.
C. Lucky stroke counts. D. Positive Chinese meanings.
5. Why did the author adopt an American accent?
A. To break with tradition. B. To fit into the community.
C. To achieve academic success. D. To facilitate language learning.
6. What have we learned about the author’s experience with calligraphy?
A. It showed her inner self. B. It improved her public image.
C. It presented no challenge to her. D. It improved her copying skills.
7. What has the author learned from calligraphy?
A. Fortune favors the brave. B. Accept who you truly are.
C. Our roots define our identity. D. Planning is good, but doing is better.
【答案】4. C 5. B 6. A 7. B

“Using AI at work is great, but if we don’t slow down and think, it might make things bad for workers,” some senior workforce experience leaders talked about AI. They think AI can help people work better and be more creative. But they also worry that if we don’t plan well, it might make work less human.
There are many ways to see how good work is done, and leaders in our study focused on the importance of creativity and hard work in creating good work. Nearly 70% of leaders we spoke to believe that AI can help workers be more creative. It gives people new ideas that make their work better. However, 42% worry that if workers depend too much on AI, they might not work as carefully as they should. Being careful means being correct, doing things completely, and having different ways of thinking to make the work really good.
Perhaps the biggest worry about AI is its impact on human connection. Over a third of conversations think AI can free up time for us to have better talks and spend more time together. But not everyone is happy about this, with 41% of leaders believing AI will weaken the quality of human connections. These bosses are concerned that we might depend too much on machines, especially for important moments. Until now, what made these moments special was the personal care and understanding that come from people. They think moments without technology have a warmth and feeling that machines might not be able to give.
AI is exciting, but we need to be careful and think about how it affects workers. We should focus on making AI work with people, not against them.
8. What can we learn about using AI from the first paragraph?
A. It needs no planning in advance.
B. It can not improve creativity at work.
C. It is the only method to increase work speed.
D. It might have bad influences if not carefully used.
9. What do 42% of the leaders concern about workers relying too much on AI?
A. Workers will work with less care. B. Workers will become less creative.
C. Workers will not complete their studies. D. Workers themselves will stop thinking.
10. How did the use of AI probably influence human connections?
A. It will bring personal care and understanding.
B. It will take away the warmth of human care.
C. It will depend too much on human connections.
D. It will strengthen the quality of human connections.
11. Who is the passage probably written for?
A. Workers. B. Researchers. C. Leaders. D. Teenagers.
【答案】8. D 9. A 10. B 11. C
【解析】

【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第二段“However, 42% worry that if workers depend too much on AI, they might not work as carefully as they should. (然而,42%的人担心,如果工人过于依赖人工智能,他们可能不会像应该的那样仔细工作。)”可知,42%的领导担心工人过度依赖AI会不太细心地工作。故选A。
【10题详解】

Why Do Millennials (千禧一代) Keep Changing Jobs?
Millennials have been labelled as the “job-hopping generation”. In fact, a recent survey showed that 49% of millennials would leave their job within the next two years! Observers from older generations may think it is caused by the youth’s laziness. However, if we search deeper, there is more than meets the eye.
Instead of the traditional and practical reasons of changing jobs, such as to get better salaries or greater job stability (稳定), many millennials are inspired by value-driven goals. For example, more have to seek new opportunities whenever they lack a sense of belonging in their present jobs. Additionally, some also leave their positions for companies which better suit their value system. Therefore, it is clear that many millennials do not only consider their jobs as a source of income, but in fact, seek meaning and professional achievement in their daily jobs.
Clearly, the fearlessness of millennials in seeking job opportunities has been inspired by new business models. With the rise of online platforms, millennials who prefer work-life balance and flexibility have been attracted towards such jobs. Moreover, the increase of social media has also created more career paths. From food and travel bloggers to YouTube content creators, more millennials are leaving boring desk-bound jobs to look for more untraditional, but certainly attractive, careers.
However, people have different opinions on job-hopping. While some employers value rich experience and skills that job-hopping brings about, many of them still look down upon job-hopping. Some even argue in disappointment that the youths of today are lazy, unable to bear hardships and too self-centered.
The former American President Jimmy Carter once said, “Human identity is no longer defined by what one does but by what one owns.” Indeed, his comment still rings true today. Rather than allow traditional models of success in society to define our youths, the millennial generation should be encouraged to define new horizons of success by making the right career choices guided by the right values.
12. Why are Millennials more likely to move to new jobs?
A. Because they are forced by their parents.
B. Because they hate stress from present jobs.
C. Because they want to realize their self-worth.
D. Because they need higher income and position.
13. What’s paragraph 3 mainly about?
A. The rapid development of social media promotes new career paths.
B. There are fewer professions available to Millennials on the Internet.
C. There are factors contributing to Millennials’ flexible job-changing.
D. The tiring and boring jobs prevent Millennials staying in one position.
14. What may those in disagreement with job-changing think of Millennials?
A. Brave and noble.
B. Lazy and self-centered.
C. Anxious and unconfident.
D. Creative and hard-working.
15. What is the author’s attitude towards Millennials’ career choice?
A. Negative. B. Doubtful. C. Positive. D. Concerned.
【答案】12. C 13. C 14. B 15. C
【解析】
【导语】文章分析了千禧一代频繁更换工作的原因、相关影响因素以及不同人群对此的看法,作者支持他们基于正确价值观自主选择职业。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“Instead of the traditional and practical reasons of changing jobs, such as to get better salaries or greater job stability (稳定), many millennials are inspired by value-driven goals. (比起换工作的传统和务实原因,比如获得更高的薪资或更好的工作稳定性,许多千禧一代更受价值观驱动的目标所激励。)”可知,千禧一代更倾向于换工作,是因为他们想要实现自我价值。
【13题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第三段“Clearly, the fearlessness of millennials in seeking job opportunities has been inspired by new business models. With the rise of online platforms, millennials who prefer work-life balance and flexibility have been attracted towards such jobs. Moreover, the increase of social media has also created more career paths. From food and travel bloggers to YouTube content creators, more millennials are leaving boring desk-bound jobs to look for more untraditional, but certainly attractive, careers. (显然,千禧一代追求就业机会的勇气受到了新型商业模式的激励。随着在线平台的兴起,更注重工作与生活平衡和灵活性的千禧一代被吸引到了这类工作岗位上。此外,社交媒体的发展也创造了更多职业路径。从美食和旅游博主到YouTube内容创作者,越来越多的千禧一代正离开枯燥的办公室工作,去寻找更非传统但极具吸引力的职业。)”可知,本段介绍新商业模式、在线平台、社交媒体这些因素,共同促使千禧一代灵活地更换工作。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段中“Some even argue in disappointment that the youths of today are lazy, unable to bear hardships and too self-centered. (有些人甚至失望地提出,如今的年轻人懒惰、不能吃苦,而且太过以自我为中心。)”可知,那些不赞同更换工作的人认为千禧一代懒惰且以自我为中心。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Rather than allow traditional models of success in society to define our youths, the millennial generation should be encouraged to define new horizons of success by making the right career choices guided by the right values. (不应让社会上传统的成功标准定义年轻人,应当鼓励千禧一代在正确价值观的指引下做出恰当的职业选择,开拓成功的新视野。)”可知,作者鼓励千禧一代基于正确价值观自主选择职业,说明他对于千禧一代的职业选择持肯定的态度。
