A vain businessman felt offended by those talking without acting and reached into his wallet. Having taken out a crispy twenty-dollar bill, he strode proudly down the aisle and pressed the bill into the old woman's unsteady, wrinkled hand. "Here, Madam, get yourself some shoes." The old woman nodded her head in thanks, full of surprise and gratitude, with tears rolling down her cheeks. The businessman strode back to his seat, feeling pleased with himself that he was a man of action. Everyone in the bus felt into absolute silence.      At the next stop, a young man wearing expensive, new, brand-name shoes boarded the bus. As the young man's glance caught the old woman's bare feet, he bent down and began to untie and remove his shoes. He knelt down before the old woman. "Madam, I see you have no shoes. Well, I have shoes." Carefully, gently, he lifted the old woman's crusty feet in his hands. He put his fine shoes on the old woman's feet. A wave of warmth overtook the woman. Just then the bus arrived at the next stop. The young man left the bus and walked away, bare foot in the snow. 【详细解析】 第一部分 单词练习（共两节，满分 30 分） 第一节 单句语法填空（共 10小题；每小题 1.5分，满分 15分） 1. 答案：poring 考点：非谓语动词 解析：固定搭配spend time (in) doing sth. 花费时间做某事。 句意：为了完成论文，他在图书馆花了好几个小时仔细研读旧文件。 2. 答案：saleswomen 考点：名词复数 解析：one of + the + 形容词最高级 + 可数名词复数，表示“最……之一”。 句意：Sally无疑是她公司里最优秀的女销售员之一。 3. 答案：Dating 考点：非谓语动词 解析：date back to 追溯到，无被动；此处作状语，用现在分词。 句意：京剧追溯到18世纪，已有两百多年历史。 4. 答案：urgently 考点：副词 解析：副词修饰动词needed。 句意：洪水过后，那个地区的人们急需净水、药品和避难所来生存。 5. 答案：convincing 考点：形容词 解析：convincing 令人信服的，修饰名词argument。 句意：我们需要给出一个有说服力的理由，解释为什么这个项目需要调整。 6. 答案：to 考点：介词 解析：固定搭配be added to 被添加到……。 句意：梵净山作为中国国家级自然保护区，在2018年被列入联合国教科文组织世界遗产名录。 7. 答案：humbly 考点：副词 解析：副词修饰动词accepted。 句意：他谦逊地接受奖项，并感谢所有支持他的人。 8. 答案：sympathetically 考点：副词 解析：副词修饰动词looked at。 句意：他同情地看着这个可怜的男孩，却无力帮忙。 9. 答案：when 考点：定语从句 解析：先行词the season，表示时间，关系副词在从句中作时间状语。 句意：树叶变红的季节吸引大量游客。 10. 答案：in 考点：介词 解析：固定搭配in contrast to 与……相比。 句意：该公司本季度亏损700万美元，而一年前盈利620万美元。 第二节 单词拼写（共 10小题；每小题 1.5分，满分 15分） 11. 答案：Organic 解析：organic 有机的，首字母大写修饰food。 句意：有机食品不含人工化学品，如今越来越受欢迎。 12. 答案：furniture 解析：furniture家具，不可数名词。 句意：像椅子、沙发这类办公家具应当美观舒适。 13. 答案：sympathy 解析：out of sympathy 出于同情，sympathy同情，不可数名词。 句意：她经常自愿帮助社区里无家可归的人，出于同情。 14. 答案：elderly 解析：elderly年老的，形容词修饰man。 句意：那位在平板上阅读的年长男士曾经是我们地区传奇的销售员。 15. 答案：mist 解析：mist薄雾。 句意：薄雾散去，壮丽景色展现在他们眼前。 16. 答案：humble 解析：humble简陋的。 句意：马拉拉的房子虽然简陋狭小，但里面充满欢乐。 17. 答案：decade 解析：decade十年，over the past decade 在过去十年。 句意：在过去十年里，帝王蝶数量大幅下降。 18. 答案：tendency 解析：tendency趋势，an increasing tendency 不断上升的趋势。 句意：中学生假期做志愿工作的趋势不断上涨。 19. 答案：educator 解析：educator教育工作者。 句意：对一名教育工作者来说，没有什么比看到多年耕耘的成果更让人欣慰。 20. 答案：intention 解析：with the intention of 目的是……。 句意：游客登上东方明珠广播电视塔，目的是俯瞰上海全城。 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） A 21~23.

The cold did not shock the man, a newcomer to the Yukon, who planned to meet his friends by six oˈclock at an old claim. As it grew colder, he realized his unprotected cheekbones would freeze, but he did not pay it much attention. He walked along a creek trail, mindful of the dangerous and concealed springs that could weaken the ice. At twelve thirty he stopped for lunch and built a fire. He continued his journey, but broke through the ice and soaked himself halfway to the knees. He cursed his luck. His feet and fingers were numb, but he managed to gather enough wood to get a fire going. He remembered the old-timer from Sulphur Creek who had warned him that no man should travel in the Yukon alone when the temperature was fifty degrees below zero. Before he could take off his boots, an avalanche of snow fell from a tree, putting out his fire. The man was scared and struggled to build a new fire, but his frozen feet and hands made it difficult. At that time, he realized that the old-timerˈs suggestions were right. If he had a trail-mate, he would be in no danger—the trail-mate would make the fire. A flame finally caught but soon went out. The man decided to kill the dog and put his hands inside its warm body to restore his circulation. But he could not kill the dog, since he was unable to pull out his knife. The man realized that frostbite was now a less worrisome prospect than death. He ran along the creek trail, trying to restore circulation, the dog at his heels. But his endurance gave out, and finally he fell and could not rise. He decided he should meet death in a more dignified manner. The man fell into a comfortable sleep. The dog did not understand why the man was sitting in the snow like that without making a fire. The husky waited, realized the man was dead and then headed for the camp where there were the other food-providers and fire-providers. 24.Which of the following shows the correct order of the plot of the story? A. travel alone—step into concealed springs—build a fire—the fire went out—try to kill the dog—run in a panic—freeze to death B. build a fire—travel alone—step into concealed springs—the fire went out—try to kill the dog—run in a panic—freeze to death C. travel alone—step into concealed springs—build a fire—the fire went out—run in a panic—try to kill the dog—freeze to death D. step into concealed springs—travel alone—build a fire—try to kill the dog—the fire went out—run in a panic—freeze to death 25.What can we infer about the old-timer from Sulphur Creek? A. He ever travelled in the Yukon alone at a very low temperature. B. He was quite experienced and kind to warn the man of the danger. C. He was rather conservative and didnˈt believe in young people. D. He thought Yukon was a place that could never be conquered by humans. 26.Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the story? A. The man failed to make a fire for lack of enough dry wood. B. The man tried to restore circulation by running and it did work. C. The concealed springs added to the danger of walking along the creek trail. D. The dog was not killed by the man at last because of the manˈs conscience. 27.Which of the following statements does not agree with the themes of this story? A. The fittest survive. B. Man can control nature. C. Man should hold great awe for nature. D. Nature is indifferent to human struggle. C The patient was a goat. It was being treated for its bladder stone (膀胱结石). It was also contributing to new research that aims to accurately measure pain not only in goats, but other animals as well and even, one day, in people. "If we solve the problem with animals, we can also solve the problem for children and other patients who canˈt speak," said Ludovica Chiavaccini, a clinical associate professor in the University of Floridaˈs College of Veterinary Medicine. Chiavaccini and her colleagues filmed the faces of goats that were in pain and those that were comfortable. Then they fed the data into an artificial intelligence-based model which learnt to distinguish goats in pain by their faces alone. According to the test, the accuracy of the system, trained and tested on 40 goats so far, was 62% to 80% at identifying pained faces. With data on more goats and other animal species, these kinds of AI models may help doctors treat pain effectively in patients they canˈt speak with. "Itˈs not just an animal-welfare issue," Chiavaccini said. "We also know animals that are in pain donˈt gain weight. Farmers are becoming more and more aware of the need to control pain in animals." Pain assessment in animals has historically been both difficult and subjective. Traditionally, veterinarians (兽医) had to rely on decades of experience to make correct judgment. Researchers have developed standardized pain scales for different species in recent years to reduce subjectivity, but the quality of those measures varies wildly. When Chiavaccini and her team started the study—inspired by a graduate studentˈs love of goats—there wasnˈt any pain scale available for goats at all. "Today, a single pain score for goats exists. But it is only suitable for male goats that are in pain, showing that a more general system is needed," Chiavaccini said. 28.How does the author bring in the topic of the text? A. By raising a question. B. By describing a scene. C. By doing an experiment. D. By analyzing a case. 29.Why do the farmers intend to control the animalsˈ pain? A. To increase animalsˈ weight. B. To improve their farming skills. C. To reduce their treatment costs. D. To improve animalsˈ happiness. 30.What does the underlined word "standardized" in the last paragraph mean? A. Expensive. B.

AI Models: Detecting Faces in Pain D In rural Pakistan, a new project, called Improving Access to Sustainable Energy in Rural Pakistan Using Food and Fiber Agro-Waste as a Renewable Fuel (SAFER), aims to turn banana waste into a reliable source of electricity for off-grid (远离电网的) communities. Every year, Pakistan generates 80 million metric tons of agricultural waste from growing bananas. Academics from Northumbria University,①in partnership with UK and Pakistani organizations, have developed an innovative two-part system that will make use of this waste product and provide benefits for local people at the same time. The first part will use new technology to turn the banana waste into textile fibers (纺织纤维), and the second part takes the waste generated from that process and uses it to produce renewable (可再生的) energy. This will not only reduce the environmental impact of Pakistanˈs textile industry, but also bring cleaner electricity to the 50% of people living in rural areas of the country who currently rely on fossil (化石) fuels for energy. The process has the potential to be applied to almost any form of agricultural waste, benefiting communities and the environment worldwide through the supply of renewable textiles and energy. Dr. Jibran Khaliq, of Northumbria University, is a material scientist who researches transforming waste energy. "Pakistanˈs textile industry is responsible for significant environmental impacts, including greenhouse gas emissions (排放), and②microplastics," said Dr. Khaliq in a statement. He revealed that his partners have developed a technology to turn banana waste into textile fibers, but the lack of electricity in rural Sindh, where the majority of the bananas are grown, has prevented this innovation from being scaled-up until now. "Over the next year we will be working to develop a new waste-to-energy technology. The technology will benefit the textile industry and local communities, improving soil fertility (肥沃) and food production through the generation of biofertilizers (生物肥料)," he added. 32.What is SAFER intended to do? A. To reduce textile waste. B. To promote banana planting. C. To increase agricultural production. D. To generate electricity from banana waste. 33.How does the author present the two-part system in detail? A. By giving a definition. B. By giving an example. C. By making a comparison. D. By making an explanation. 34.What has prevented the wide application of the technology in rural Sindh? A. Lack of labor force. B. Electricity shortage. C. Insufficient funding. D. High cost of the technology. 35.What is a potential benefit of the new waste-to-energy technology? A. Developing agriculture. B. Decreasing soil fertility. C. Increasing use of fossil fuel. D. Promoting the sale of textile. 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。 Digital Medicine Could the next suggestion from your doctor be downloading an app? Collectively known as digital medicine，a large number of apps in use or under development can now detect or monitor mental and physical disorders or directly administer therapies.     (36)     Many detection aids rely on mobile devices to record such features as usersˈ voices，locations，facial expressions，exercise and sleep；then they apply artificial intelligence to mark the possible change of a condition. Some smart watches，for instance，contain a sensor that automatically detects and warns people of a dangerous heart rate.      (37)       These wearable detection aids will not replace a doctor any time soon but can be helpful partners in stressing concerns that need follow-up.      (38)      Some are being developed to detect things such as cancerous DNA，stomach bleeds，body temperature and oxygen levels. The sensors inside your body can then send the data to apps for recording.     (39)      For the most part，those intended to diagnose or treat disorders must be proved safe and effective in clinical trials and earn regulatory approval；some may need a doctorˈs permission. Clearly，society must move into the future of digital medicine with care—ensuring that the apps go through strict testing，protect privacy and go smoothly into doctorsˈ work. With such protections in place，healthcare costs could be saved by marking unhealthy behaviours and helping people to make changes before diseases set in.     (40)      For researchers，the patterns that emerge will provide them with novel ideas for how best to build healthier habits and prevent diseases. A．Not all healthcare apps can be used as digital medicine. B．Digital medicine has been widely used in all aspects of life nowadays. C．Detection aids can also take the form of eatable and sensor-bearing pills. D．They can both help diagnose symptoms and enhance traditional medical care. E．Other similar tools can detect breathing disorders，depression and other conditions. F．These data also help doctors detect diseases and help patients change their behaviors. G．For doctors，applying AI to the data from these apps could help them personalize patient care. 第三部分：语言运用(共两节，满分 30分) 第一节：完形填空(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 have a lovely neighbour.

Plodding along in the snow, alone, neglected, head bowed. A young couple, smiling, talking, laughing, arms loaded with Christmas presents, took no notice of the old woman. A mother with two small children hurried by, on their way to grandmother's house. Like many others, they took no notice, either. If these people had noticed, they would have seen that the old woman wore no shoes. She walked barefoot in the ice and snow.     With both hands the old woman gathered her worn buttonless overcoat at the collar to keep out the wind. She stopped and stood bent and bowed at the bus stop. A red and blue scarf covering her head, she waited for the downtown bus.     A gentleman carrying an important-looking briefcase waited near her, not too closely. After all, she could have something contagious(传染的). A teenage girl also waited for the bus. She glanced repeatedly at the old woman's feet, but said nothing.     The bus arrived and the old woman slowly, painfully boarded. She sat on the sideways seat just behind the driver. The gentleman and the teenage girl hurried to the rear(后面的). A little boy pointed at the old woman. "Look, Mother, that old lady is barefoot." The embarrassed mother slapped his hand down. "Don't point at people, Andrew. It's not polite to point." She looked out of the window.     "She must have sons or daughters," a lady in a fur coat suggested, "Her children should be ashamed of themselves." She felt morally superior, because she took good care of her mother.     A teacher seated near the middle of the bus steadied the bag of gifts on her lap. "Don't we pay enough taxes to handle situations like this?" she said to a friend seated beside her.     "People have to learn to save their money," a well-dressed young college man added. "If that old woman had saved when she was young, she wouldn't be suffering now. It's her own fault."     And all these vain(虚荣的) people beamed with satisfaction that they had all given such deep analysis, totally ignoring the old woman who badly needed a pair of shoes immediately. 注意： (1)续写词数应为150左右； (2)请按如下格式在相应位置作答。      A vain businessman felt offended by those talking without acting and reached into his wallet. _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________     At the next stop, a young man wearing expensive, new, brand-name shoes boarded the bus. _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ 第1页，共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
