For most people, having something important stolen feels like a disaster. Robbie Pruitt admitted when his
mountain bike was stolen last September, he got mad. But soon his emotions took a turn. After letting go of his
anger, he found himself on a road to sympathy (同情) instead.
As a biker, Pruitt’s first priority was to buy one again, but when he went bike shopping, he found the pickings
slim. The shortage in supply got him thinking: What if the person who’d taken his bike had done so because he
truly needed bikes to get to work?
With that thought in mind, Pruitt came up with a plan and posted it to a local Facebook group. He offered to
fix bikes free of charge for anyone who needed it. Pruitt also put out a call for bikes people don’t use, which he
would repair—again for free—and then donate to people who could truly use them but didn’t have the budget to
buy a bike.
The day the post went live, Pruitt was excited about a list of 30 used bicycles. And this was followed by more
than 500 posts from people who either had bikes to donate or that needed fixing soon after. By the end of the
month, Pruitt had repaired more than 140 bikes for donation.
Pruitt tries to give his donations to struggling families. Beyond simply satisfying a material need, he has
provided an opportunity for kids in his neighborhood to learn how to fix their own bikes.In addition to practical skills, Pruitt’s lessons teach teamwork, encourage self-esteem, and develop feelings of
community. “Pruitt is certainly providing a service, but it’s not the bikes. It’s the relationships in the community.
It’s the impact he made on people. All the neighborhood kids are spending a lot more time doing something that’s
in their power,” Pruitt’s next-door neighbor Danny told The Washington Post.
24. How did Pruitt feel after he went to the bikeshop?
A. He was angry at the theft. B. He became eager for a new bike.
C. He would rather find his old bike. D. He tried to put himself in the thief’s shoes.
25. Why did Pruitt put out a call?
A. To find his lost bike. B. To collect old bikes.
C. To raise some money for charity. D. To advertise his bike repair shop.
26. Which of the following best describes Robbie Pruitt?
A. Caring and inspiring. B. Considerate and loyal.
C. Outgoing and brave. D. Responsible and humorous.
27. Which of the following can be the best title for the text?
A. Robbie Pruitt: A Bike Repairman.
B. A Bike Thief: A Trouble Maker.
C. A Kind Act: Inspiration From A Stolen Bike.
D. Bike Shopping: An Unexpected Adventure.

Published in the journal Sleep by Mary Carskadon at Brown University and her colleagues, a new study set
out to answer an age-old mystery: why do teenagers stay up so late, and why is it so hard to get them out of bed in
the morning?
Many people believe that social forces like school pressures and partying pleasures are to blame (责
备). Carskadon, however, doubted that biological (生物的) elements might be responsible. To test that
guess, she surveyed 2,000 schoolchildren across the US on their preferred and actual bedtimes and their
physical development, wake times, the times of day when they felt most or least active, and their physical
development.
The results pointed to biology. Sixth-graders (aged 11 or 12) scored higher on “eveningness” and lower on
“morningness” than younger children, even though they were in the same social environment. Therefore,
Carskadon and her team concluded, the practice of ringing the morning bell earlier at middle schools (for 11 - to
13-year-olds) and high schools (for ages 14 to 18) than at elementary schools “may run counter to children’s
biological needs”.
In response, a growing number of US cities began pushing back start times in middle and high schools. In
2019, California became the first US state to pass laws supporting later start times, followed by Florida in May.
Meanwhile, other countries, including Australia and South Korea have made similar changes.
This is certainly a significant step towards improving teens’ mental and physical health. Yet later school start
times alone may not be enough to stop teenagers from sleeping late. If teens stay up till dawn on their phones, or
don’t have a quiet place to sleep, even a 10 am start can do little good.That is why some people argue that schools should include courses on evidence-based practices to improve
sleep. In small studies, researchers at the University of Oxford have found that such courses can significantly
improve sleep quality, even for children from low-income (收入) families who initially reported poor sleep.
28. What did Carskadon and her colleagues try to prove?
A. The problems with existing theories. B. The effective ways to wake up teens.
C. The true causes of teens’ late sleep. D. The impact of late sleep on teens’ learning.
29. Which of the following can replace the underlined part “run counter to” in paragraph 3?
A. go against B. agree with C. depend on D. focus on
30. What is the attitude of the authorities towards Carskadon’s conclusion?
A. Disapproving. B. Doubtful. C. Favorable. D. Unconcerned.
31. What can be inferred from the last paragraph?
A. Sleep education fails to work as expected.
B. Evidence-based sleep education matters.
C. Sleep education in schools is easy to improve.
D. Sleep courses do little good to poor children.
D
Rogues (疯狗浪), called “extreme storm waves” by scientists, are large, unexpected, and dangerous
waves that are at least twice as high as the other waves around them, according to the National Oceanic
and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA). These abnormal waves, which happen every day and all over
the world, are highly unpredictable (不可预测地) and can destroy ships that meet with them.
Rogue waves appear to form when large rough waves pass through one another, forming huge walls of water,
according to NOAA. However, why and where they appear is unclear. But using 700 years’ worth of ocean data
including historical records and data in 158 locations around the world, researchers have now created a system for
predicting these “huge beasts”.
The system used Al to assess various elements that might lead to rogue waves. The team trained a
neural (神经的) network using historical wave data. This generated a system that learned the causes of
rogue waves by itself and could work to predict them. But the Al’s methods were hid in a black box.
This means scientists couldn’t know how the Al did its workings. So Hiatfner’s team used a different
machine learning method that provides an equation (综合体) when given data, rather than just a single
prediction , helping the researchers to understand how the AI reached its predictions.
“Our analysis shows that abnormal waves occur all the time. In fact, we collected 100,000 waves in
our data set that can be named as rogue waves by definition (定义),” Hafner said. This system effectively
shows the sign of a rogue wave, Hafner added, and can better protect ships from being destroyed as they sail
around the world. Ship companies can use the device with the system to predict when and where rogue waves
might appear to seek an alternative course.
32. How does the author introduce the topic?
A. By using an example. B. By giving a definition.
C. By drawing a comparison. D. By making an assumption.33. What can the system do according to paragraph 2?
A. Monitor huge sea creatures. B. Guide ships around in the sea.
C. Prevent rogue waves from occurring. D. Predict the hitting of rogue waves.
34. What is the disadvantage of the AI’s methods?
A. They are invisible. B. They depend on too many elements.
C. They make incorrect predictions. D. They don’t deal with data system.
35. How does Hafner find the system?
A. It requires more field tests. B. It has been widely used.
C. It needs further improvement. D. It has a promising future.

Determining the ideal study time is a common worry for students who go all out to achieve
academic (学业的) success, with various elements to consider, such as individual learning styles and
personal goals. 3 6 Here are some suggestions for establishing the best study time that meets your unique
needs and ensures a well-rounded academic experience.
Understanding your learning style is significant in determining the ideal study time. 3 7 Some
common learning styles include visual, auditory and kinesthetic (动觉的) learning. Once you understand
your learning style, you can tailor your study sessions accordingly, making them more efficient and
productive.
38 Are you studying for a standardized test, preparing for an important exam or simply trying to improve
your knowledge on a specific subject? Not all subjects require the same amount of study time. Your study time
should be enough to meet these requirements and help you become excellent academically.
Balance your extracurricular (课外的) activities. While studying is important, it’s also necessary to
maintain a healthy balance between academics and extracurricular activities. Participating in sports or other
hobbies can provide a much-needed break and help reduce pressure. 39
Studying for long hours without breaks can lead to reduced productivity and tiredness. 40 Schedule
short breaks throughout your study sessions to recharge and maintain excellent performance.
Eventually, the ideal study time varies from person to person. Consider your learning style, goals and other
commitments to determine your best study time.
A. A good study environment can help you maintain focus.
B. Finding a study schedule that works best for you is important.
C. Taking regular breaks can enhance concentration and memory.
D. Set aside time for these activities without affecting your study time.
E. Setting clear goals is the first step towards academic progress and success.
F. The amount of study time can vary depending on your academic requirements.
G. People learn differently and what works for one person may not work for another.

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。
My love for dance began when I was very young and I would dream to be a star dancer from time
to time. With the drama festival approaching, the school’s drama club had released a notice for the
dancer audition (试镜) for The Twelve Dancing Princesses. And of course I was the first one to sign up.
As I left the stage after my audition at school, I could feel it: the power, the future. I knew that someday when
dancers’ magazines wrote about me, they would say this moment was when my rise to a star began.
My ballet shoes hurt my feet, but I figured that was helpful. In The Twelve Dancing Princesses, the princesses
danced all night so they probably had foot pain, too. My performance was more touching because of my pain. I
needed to show my devotion even when I wasn’t on stage, so I approached Mr. Ellison, the drama club
advisor. He told me that casting (角色分配) will be posted tomorrow. “Thank you, sir,” I said, using the
almost British pronunciation of Hollywood stars in the1940s. I was so sure that Mr. Ellison would cast me
as a princess.
The next morning, I went to read the cast list. The twelve princesses were first, by number. I scanned from
One to Twelve, but none by me. At the bottom of the cast list, my name finally appeared. My role was a really small
one, an old woman who helped a soldier, not one of the princesses! I was desperately disappointed. Mr. Ellison
must have made a mistake! No one else in the school had my skills or preparation!
I found him in his classroom, but he insisted there was no mistake and added that every role in a
play was important. Unable to accept the fact, I burst into tears. Mr. Ellison managed to calm me down
and encouraged me to have a try in the rehearsal (排练).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。
The next day, I dragged myself to the rehearsal._________________________________________________

第二节 Possible version
The next day, I dragged myself to the rehearsal. Unwilling to play such an insignificant role, I practiced
dancing absent-mindedly. Noticing my behavior, Mr. Ellison and my classmates encouraged me to cheer up. As the
rehearsal progressed, I began to see the significance of my role. The old woman was more than just a small
character; her wisdom and guidance were vital to the story. Over the following days, I devoted myself to practicing
with great passion and my performance improved greatly. With growing confidence, I eagerly anticipated the day of
the actual performance.
Finally, the great day arrived and “the old woman” couldn’t wait to get on the stage. The spotlight hit
me when I stepped onto the stage, and every movement flowed naturally. The audience cheered and burst into
thunderous applause while I wonderfully danced and confidently delivered my lines. I really enjoyed the moment
by turning a small role into a big one. Afterwards, Mr. Ellison spoke highly of my performance. Since that day, I
have realized that I would continue pursuing my dream of being a dancer, and that every role, no matter how small,
was an opportunity to shine.

22. C 题干问的是费用，我们可以把解题信息定位到Pricing information部分。题干提到9名学生加一位
监护人和一位老师需要付多少钱，根据这部分中的“$12 per student; 1 free guardian every 10 students…
teachers are always free”。可知，一名学生收费12美元，每10名学生可以有1位监护人不收费，老师都
不收费。结合这些信息可知，9名学生和1位监护人费用应是114美元（学生人数不到10，一个监护人需
收费6美元，老师不收费）。故选C项。
23. B 根据文章的内容、格式和“please click here to download our Education Program Guide”可知，本
文是一则在线广告。故选B项。
24. D 根据第一段最后一句he found himself on a road to sympathy instead和第二段得知，当他发现可
挑选的自行车很少，从而引起他的思考，偷他自行车的人可能也面临这样的情况而不得已才去偷自行车。
所以作者试图站在小偷的角度考虑问题，试图理解小偷的想法和处境。故选D项。
25. B 根据第三段Pruitt also put out a call for bikes people don’t use，得知他是为了收集人们闲置的自
行车。故选B项。
26. A 根据第三段，他搜集自行车，免费修理，并且赠送给真正能使用的人，可知caring有爱心的，关爱
他人的。最后一段It’s the impact he made on people. All the neighborhood kids are spending a lot more
time doing something that’s in their power，可知他激励了很多人去做力所能及的事情，说明他很能鼓舞
人心-inspiring。故选A项。
27. C 根据文章第一段But soon his emotions took a turn. After letting go of his anger, he found
himself on a road to sympathy instead.和后文可知是作者的自行车被偷才引起了后来作者产生同情心，决
定去帮助别人，才有了后文的善举。故选C项。
28. C 根据第二段Many people believe that social forces like school pressures and partying pleasures are
to blame. Carskadon， however， doubted that biological factors might be responsible. To test that guess,
she surveyed 2,000 schoolchildren... 可知，很多人认为，青少年喜欢晚起和晚睡是受到了来自学业压力和
聚会乐趣的驱使。然而，Carskadon怀疑这可能是生物因素造成的。正是为了验证这一猜测，她和她的同
事才进行了这一研究，故选C项。
29. A 根据画线部分所在句上文的Sixth-graders (aged 11 or 12) scored higher on “eveningness” and
lower on “morningness” than younger children, even though they were in the same social environment
可知，Carskadon所进行的调查结果表明：六年级学生（11或12岁）在“晚间表现”上的得分高于低年级
学生，而在“晨间表现”上的得分则低于低年级学生。而画线词前的the practice of ringing the morning
bell earlier at middle schools(for11-to 13-year-olds) and high schools (for ages 14 to 18) than at
elementary schools显然是与这一结果相悖的，故选A项。
30. C 根据第四段内容可知，在美国多个城市开始推迟中学上学的时间，加州和佛罗里达州还专门为之立
法。而在美国以外，澳大利亚和韩国也已经开始了类似的改革。由此可推知，官方对于Carskadon经由调
查所得出的结论持肯定的态度。故选C项。
31. B 根据最后一段In small studies, researchers at the University of Oxford have found that such
courses can significantly improve sleep quality. even for children from low-income households who
initially reported poor sleep.和第一句中的evidence-based practices to improve sleep可推知，在学校中教授
促进和改善睡眠的循证实践课程可以提高青少年的睡眠质量，故选B项。32.B 根据第一段可知，据美国国家海洋和大气管理局称，“疯狗浪”被科学家称为“极端风暴波”，是
一种巨大的、意想不到的、危险的海浪，其高度至少是周围其他海浪的两倍。这些异常的海浪在世界各地
每天都有发生，非常难以预测，可能会摧毁遇到它们的船只。再结合下文中关于疯狗浪的介绍可知，作者
主要通过对疯狗浪下定义来引入话题。故选B项。
33. D 本题问的是“根据第二段，这个系统能够做什么”。根据第二段中的“why and where they
appear is unclear… researchers have now created a system for predicting these ‘huge beasts’”可知，疯狗
浪出现的原因和地点尚不清楚，因此，研究人员创建了一个系统来预测这些“巨兽”。故选D项。
34. A 本题问的是“人工智能方法的缺点是什么”。根据题干中的“the AI’s methods”可将解题信息定位
至第四段。根据“But the AP’s methods were hid in a black box. This means scientists couldn’t know
how the AI did its workings”可知，人工智能的方法被藏在一个黑箱里，这意味着科学家无法知道人工智
能是如何工作的。A项“它们是看不见的”；B项“它们要依赖太多因素”；C项“它们给不出准确的预
测”；D项“它们不会系统处理数据”。故选A项。
35. D 根据最后一段中的“This system effectively shows the sign of a rogue wave… to seek an
alternative course”可知，Häfner认为，该系统可以有效地显示疯狗浪的迹象，更好地保护在世界各地航行
的船只免受破坏。船舶公司可以使用配有该系统的设备来预测何时何地可能出现疯狗浪，以寻求替代航线。
由此可知，他认为这个系统有着很好的发展前景。故选D项。
36. B 根据空前内容可知，确定理想的学习时间是追求学术成功的学生们普遍关心的问题，本空进一步指
出了确定最佳学习时间的重要性，并引出下文内容，因此B项起到了承上启下的作用。
37. G G项“人们的学习方式是不同的，对一个人有用的方式可能对另一个人不起作用”与空前内容“理

39. D 根据本段主旨句及空前一句可知，D项“在不影响你的学习时间的前提下，为这些活动留出时间”
承接上文，符合语境。
40. C 根据空前的Studying for long hours without breaks can lead to reduced productivity and tiredness.
可知，C项“有规律的休息可以提高注意力和记忆力”与空前内容从不同的角度论证了在学习活动中安排

了，染上(picked up)咳嗽。
45. B 根据上文的“later proved stage-four cancer”和语境可知，母亲生命的最后几个月都在与癌症作斗
争(fighting)。46. A 根据上文的“stage-four cancer”并结合常识可知，这是一场无成功希望的斗争。a losing battle“无
成功希望的斗争”。
47. B 根据语境可知，母亲去世后，作者安排(arranged)了一次罗马之旅。
48. C 根据下文的“you never get used to a world that Mom isn’t a part of”可知，你永远不会习惯一个

49. D 结合语境和常识可知，对于母亲去世的这个事实，作者只能面对，因为作者真的没有选择(choice)。
50. C 根据句中的but表转折和下文的“my mom would always be there”可知，母亲人虽然不在了，但
作者每分钟都能感觉到(sensed)她的存在。

读后续写思路点拨
情节线（略）
情感线期待→过度自信→震惊失望→无法接受→情绪崩溃→？

Q1：作者是以什么样的态度对待排练的？
Q2：老师和其他人对作者的排练态度有什么反应？
Q3：作者对自己角色的态度有没有转变？
续写第一段应着重描写作者在第二天排练时候的心情、态度，以及老师和队友看到她的状态时的表现。根

何改变态度的，以及她在后续排练时的表现。
