第二部分 阅读理解（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）
学科网（北京）股份有限公司阅读下列短文。从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
A
Planning an educational trip for your students? Think about taking them to explore some
of the most sustainable parks in the U.S.
Discovery Green Park
Discovery Green Park in Houston, Texas is full of dog runs, lakes, eco-friendly art
displays, playgrounds, and sustainable buildings. Park managers follow through with organic
gardening and landscaping methods, and there’s even an on-site recycling center. This park will
show students how urban parks can follow sustainable practices and help the environment.
Denali National Park and Preserve
If your school can swing a trip to Alaska, then a visit to Denali National Park and
Preserve should be at the top of your list. It is committed to being a green park by reducing
energy and water consumption and promoting educational courses on climate change.
Eden Park
186 acres (英亩) of beauty is found in Cincinnati, Ohio. Since its conception, the park
has been going green, with a pilot solar and wind energy project that began in 2006. The goal
is to demonstrate the effectiveness of using renewable energy to power city buildings. Students
will note solar panels throughout — even solar garbage cans.
North Cascades National Park
Founded in Washington in 1968, North Cascades National Park has created an
environmental learning center that’s completely green and great for students. They’ll find a
rooftop rainwater harvest system, green lighting, buildings made with recycled goods, and so
much more!
21. Which park is based in Alaska?
A. Eden Park. B. Discovery Green Park.
C. North Cascades National Park. D. Denali National Park and Preserve.
22. What can be found at North Cascades National Park?
A. On-site recycling centers. B. A rainwater harvest system.
C. A wind energy project. D. Solar garbage cans.
23. What is a common feature of the parks?
A. They are located in urban areas. B. They offer pet-friendly facilities.
C. They promote eco-friendly practices. D. They have historical significance.

学科网（北京）股份有限公司It was just after 17 : 00 on a mid-September evening at a historical Church in Harlem,
New York City. Mostly the low-income black neighborhood sat at dining tables. In front of
them was a menu listing three courses, which they only saw on TV. Each dish was prepared
with “leftover” ingredients (食材), offered free of charge and placed alongside a blue card
that read “you are loved” in hand-written script.
This is one of 14 community centers created around the world in cities like Milan, Paris,
Mérida, Lima, Sydney and now New York through three-Michelin starred chef Massimo
Bottura’s Food for Soul project. He started the project in 2016 with his wife, Lara Gilmore, to
help fight the global problem of food waste — by using ingredients that might otherwise be
thrown away by suppliers — and to give socially and economically vulnerable people access
to high quality meals.
Partnering with architects, artists and community leaders, the project is transforming spaces,
which are not fully taken advantage of, such as churches and even a historical home into
intentionally designed cultural centers equipped with kitchens, dining rooms and other facilities
that help create a sense of well-being, connection and inclusion.
When I asked Bottura why he created such thoughtful meals within beautifully appointed
spaces for the low-income, he told me that everyone deserves respect and beauty — and of
course, healthy food. “They come in and are completely lost because they’re not used to
coming into beautiful places like this. But once they’re here, they realize that this place is
their place. It’s not my place,” he said.
Bottura’s philosophy is one that comes from the heart. T-shirts worn by volunteers at his
community centers say “cooking is an act of love”, and he approaches the food served there
with as much care as he does at his restaurants — “probably even more”, he said since the
diners are extremely stressed and need healthy food to feel better. Bottura insists that it’s
important to change the language around the food served in his community centers.
24. Why does the author describe such a scene in the first paragraph?
A. To introduce Bottura’s project. B. To show the appeal of the dishes.
C. To emphasize the warm atmosphere. D. To explain how the event is organized.
25. What does the underlined word “vulnerable” in Paragraph 2 mean?
A. Privileged. B. Independent. C. Conservative. D. Disadvantaged.
26. Which of the following best describes Massimo Bottura?
A. Skilled and strict. B. Caring and considerate.
C. Wealthy and humorous. D. Economical and influential.
27. What fundamental philosophy does Massimo Bottura express?
学科网（北京）股份有限公司A. Respect and beauty are for all. B. Beautiful places inspire respect.
C. Cooking should be a profession. D. Community centers bring people together.
C
The world is awash in pesticides (杀虫剂). Fully 3 billion kilograms are thought to be sprayed (喷
洒) onto crops worldwide every year, of which only a small amount is needed. The extra chemicals are
known to run off onto land and into watercourses, with damaging environmental and health effects. The
use of agrochemicals continues to grow: global sales of pesticides rose to $79bn in 2022, according to
S&P Global Commodity Insights, part of a big research group. The good news is that a number of new
spraying methods employing artificial intelligence (AI) are being commercialised, promising to cut the
amount of pesticides a farmer needs to spray by 90%.
Precision spraying is the future. This is where AI comes in. For instance, Dyson Farming, an
agricultural project led by James Dyson, a British inventor, is using a process developed by Bilberry, a
French company. This involves some cameras spread along the long arms of an agricultural sprayer.
The pictures taken by the cameras are analyzed with image-recognition software trained to recognize
weeds. The system then individually turns the arms’ 144 spray heads on or off whenever pesticides are
to be applied.
Even greater levels of precision spraying are promised by AgZen, a firm from the Massachusetts
Institute of Technology. Its team came up with a monitoring system called RealCoverage. Capable of
being adapted to existing sprayers, RealCoverage consists of two camera-based sensors on each spray
arm, one placed slightly ahead and the other just behind. As the sprayer moves along, the firm’s AI
identifies images of leaves caught by the first camera and compares them to images obtained by the
second. This allows the number of droplets left hanging onto the leaves to be calculated.
AI spraying provides a huge increase in the depth of knowledge available to farmers, essentially
allowing them to measure spray results in terms of millilitres (毫升) per leaf, instead of litres per acre.
As the system works with other spray technologies, AgZen is also discussing possible cooperation with
equipment suppliers and contract-spraying businesses.
28. What problem is presented in paragraph 1?
A. The overuse of pesticides. B. The health cost of pesticides.
C. The rising prices of pesticides. D. The lack of effective pesticides.
29. Which of the following can describe the spraying of Bilberry’s system?
A. Inaccurate and labour-intensive. B. Harmless and widespread.
C. Costly and old-fashioned. D. Targeted and effective.
30. What does paragraph 3 mainly tell us about RealCoverage?
A. Its development process. B. Its operating mechanism.
学科网（北京）股份有限公司C. Its historical background. D. Its environmental impact.
31. What can we say about AI spraying?
A. It still needs further trials. B. It will soon be adopted globally.
C. It will save farmers enormous costs. D. It has made cameras a thing of the past.

People’s first memories are all autobiographical ( 自 传 式 的 ), or memories of significant
experiences in their lives, and these events typically didn’t happen before the age of 2 or 3. In fact, most
people can’t remember things from the first few years of their lives—a phenomenon researchers have
called infantile amnesia.
However, research suggests that infants can form other kinds of memories. Within the first few
days of life, infants can recall their own mother’s face and distinguish it from the face of a stranger. A
few months later, infants can demonstrate that they remember lots of familiar faces by smiling most at
the ones they see most often.
But if so, why do people experience infantile amnesia? Though it still isn’t clear whether it’s
because we can’t form autobiographical memories, or whether we just have no way to retrieve (找回)
them, scientists have a few guesses.
One is that autobiographical memories require you to have some sense of self. Researchers have
tested this ability using a mirror recognition task called the rouge test. It involves marking a baby’s nose
with a spot of red lipstick.
Researchers then place the infant in front of a mirror. Infants younger than 18 months just smile at
the baby in the reflection, not showing any evidence of recognizing themselves or the red mark on their
face. Between 18 and 24 months, infants touch their own nose, even looking embarrassed, suggesting
that they connect the red dot in the mirror with their own face—they start to form some sense of self.
Another possible explanation is that because infants don’t have language until later in the second
year of life, they can’t form narratives about their own lives that they can later recall. Finally, the
hippocampus (海马体), which is the region of the brain that’s largely responsible for memory, isn’t
fully developed in the infancy period.
Scientists will continue to investigate how these factors may contribute to infantile amnesia.
32. What can infants do in their first few months?
A. Memorize most of their family members.
B. Distinguish between familiar and unfamiliar faces.
C. Remember a string of events from the recent past.
D. Identify their own reflections in the mirror.
33. What do infants tend to do after 18 months, according to the rouge test?
学科网（北京）股份有限公司A. See their reflections as themselves. B. Ignore the marks on their faces.
C. Enjoy playing with their reflections. D. Show a strong interest in the mirror.
34. What could be a cause of infantile amnesia, according to the text?
A. Infants’ inability to recall memories. B. Infants’ immature hippocampus.
C. Infants’ undeveloped communication skills. D. Infants’ unsteady autobiographical memories.
35. Which of the following can be the best title for the text?
A. When do babies start remembering things? B. Why is it hard to retrieve lost memories?
C. How do kids form their first memories? D. Why can’t we remember being a baby?
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。
Many students feel like they simply do not have strong memory skills. Fortunately,
though, anyone can train and develop their memorizing abilities. Here are some simple tips to
try.
Link it. Connect the information you are trying to memorize to something that you
already know. Material in isolation (孤立) is more difficult to remember than material that is
connected to other concepts. For example, say you are trying to memorize the fact that water
at sea level boils at 212 degrees Fahrenheit, and 212 happens to be the first three digits of
your best friend’s phone number. ____36____ It’s a crazy link, but it can help that fact to
stick.
Self-test. Test yourself every so often by actively recalling the information you are trying
to study. Make sure to actively test yourself. ____37____ Often, students think they remember
material just because it is familiar to them when they reread it. Instead, ask yourself questions
and force yourself to remember it without looking at the answer or material. ____38____ You
can then go back to one of the memory tricks to help yourself memorize it.
____39____ For a concept to move from your temporary working memory to your long-
term memory, two things need to happen: the concept should be memorable and it should be
repeated. Use repetition to firmly plant information in your memory. Repetition techniques can
involve things like flash cards and self-testing. Space out your studying and repetition over
several days. ____40____ Spacing it out and gradually extending the times in between can
help us become more certain of our mastery and lock the concepts into place.
A. Use distributed practice.
学科网（北京）股份有限公司B. Repetition is never enough.
C. Do not simply reread notes or a textbook.
D. This repetition is powerful for long-term memory.
E. Then increase the time in between each study session.
F. This will help you identify areas you are struggling with.
G. Link these two by imagining throwing your phone into a boiling ocean.

第二节 读后续写（满分25分）
阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Maeja was responsible for watching her younger brother, Jungho, and sister, Kyunghee, as they
walked home from school. The crowded streets of Yeosu, South Korea, were filled with bicycles and
cars rushing by. Jungho and Kyunghee frequently complained of being tired and hungry, so they
stopped to rest.
While they were resting, Maeja noticed a street banner (横幅) announcing the First Annual
Walking Race to Jasan Park, with the prize being a washing machine. Maeja thought it would be fun to
participate. She walked to and from school with her brother and sister every day and had hiked in
Jasan Park with her father, Appa. However, she doubted her ability to walk fast enough to win.
When they finally arrived home, Maeja’s mother Umma was busy in the kitchen, preparing dinner
on their single burner stove (炉具). By the time Appa arrived, dinner was ready. They all sat together,
sharing stories about their day. After dinner, Maeja helped Umma wash dishes. When Umma pulled
out two metal laundry tubs (洗衣盆), her smile disappeared. Laundry was a tiring task that caused
Umma pain, as they did not own a washing machine. Years of washing clothes by hand had left
Umma’s hands rough and worn. Witnessing Umma’s struggle, Maeja’s heart ached with a deep desire
to relieve her stress.
Then, Maeja remembered the banner she had seen earlier that day. Her eyes lit up with a sense of
学科网（北京）股份有限公司determination as she told Umma about the upcoming race and the grand prize of a washing machine.
She spoke with an enthusiasm that temporarily lifted the tired lines from Umma’s face.
Umma listened, but she had doubts. “Maeja, you cannot expect to win,” she said, her voice full of
concern. The thought of her daughter being disappointed weighed heavily on her.
Nevertheless, Maeja was determined. She looked around their humble home, at the single burner
stove and the metal laundry tubs. She wanted to make a difference, no matter how small. With a
hopeful heart and a determined spirit, she decided to participate in the race.
注意：1. 所续写短文的词数应为150词左右；2. 请按如下格式在相应位置作答。
On race day, Maeja woke up early and got ready. ____________________________________
