I was born with a vision (视力) problem, and over the years, my eyesight gradually worsened. Once I was in
the first year of my PhD, I was almost 100% blind.
Though I am blind, my great passion is climbing regardless of many challenges.
I started climbing when I was young. My dad took me up my first rock route when I was two. He taught me
everything he knew and I led my first route outside when I was 11. At that time I had about 20% vision, unable to
pick out the routes from the ground.
I met my wife Molly at a climbing club. We didn’t climb together very much because we were both very
experienced and normally led those who hadn’t done as much as we had. We were just friends at first, but
eventually romance (浪漫) arose.In fact, I proposed (求婚) to her in 2017 on a climbing trip to Greenland. It was my most difficult trip,
camping in temperatures below-20℃. I didn’t have a diamond ring at that time.
In the end I went down on one knee with a special ring made by myself. She said yes, but then I fell down and
somehow dropped the ring. So it’s still there in Greenland!
It’s quite possible that I wouldn’t be a good climber if I weren’t blind - if I didn’t have these challenges. It
wouldn’t focus me. That determination is built through my disability.
24. Who made the author love climbing?
A. His mother. B. His wife. C. His father. D. His best friend.
25. How was the author’s eyesight when he led his first route outside?
A. It began to recover. B. He had about 40% vision.
C. He was almost 100% blind. D. He had about 20% vision.
26. Which of the following best describes the author as a climber?
A. Determined. B. Demanding. C. Humorous. D. Selfless.
27. What can be a suitable title for the text?
A. Hard Work Pays Off B. Misfortune Might Be a Blessing in Disguise
C. A Friend in Need Is a Friend Indeed D. Where There Is a Will, There Is a Way
C
Travelling plays an important part in making us feel relaxed and happy. It also brings good changes in our life
and keeps us alive and active. Travelling gives us practical experience of things we have studied in the books. So a
person who does not travel at all does not find any meaning in the name of Ganga River. However, if he has
travelled to this place, he can truly relate everything he has studied and will always remember each and every detail
of that place.
Nowadays, many people like travelling as they want to explore the world and watch everything they have read
about. And this seems to be quite true as practical knowledge is more important and effective (有效的). People like
to visit historical places present in different parts of the world and collect information on the same to write books
and stories.
Travelling has become easier due to (由于) advancement in technology and transportation (交通). Earlier
people used to travel by road or sea and it took many days to travel from one place to another. However, now the
situation has changed and people travel to far off places within hours and minutes — thanks to well-built roads and
airplanes.
People travel for different purposes, some travel for further education while others travel to relax and enjoy.Many people take a break from their busy schedule and go for a vacation, which makes them feel pleased and
energetic (充满活力的).
Many writers and painters travel to different places to experience some of the best things of nature and express
them in the form of paintings or books. People also travel for business purposes so as to make money from their
business. Students travel for educational purposes. Everyone has a unique reason to travel. Therefore, travelling is
an important part of human life and it provides knowledge and offers all kinds of benefits (好处) to mankind.
28. What does the author want to say by mentioning the Ganga River?
A. The Ganga river is a good place to visit.
B. Travelling brings good changes in our life.
.
C Visitors fail to find the meaning of the Ganga river.
D. People should travel to experience the things in the books.
29. What is Paragraph 3 mainly about?
A. The traffic in earlier times.
B. The time spent on travelling.
C. Changes in means of transportation.
D. The reasons why travelling has become easier.
30. What can we know from the last two paragraphs?
A. Different people have different reasons to travel.
B. Businessmen always travel for a vacation.
C. Writers travel to sell their books.
D. Painters love travelling the most.
31. What does the author think of travelling?
A. Useful but expensive. B. Important but difficult.
C. Meaningful and necessary. D. Pleasant and safe.

With artificial intelligence (AI) seemingly working its way into every technology out there, one area where it’s
considered particularly promising is in helping doctors. And already, AI is entering some doctors’ offices.
Dr. Michael Mansour of Massachusetts General Hospital is an early user who’s helped by a form of AI that could
someday change the way doctors get information. When a patient comes in with unknown infection (感染), Mansour
turns to a computer program called UpToDate. It’s a common tool, with more than 2 million users at 44,000 health
care organizations in over 190 countries. Basically, it’s Google for doctors — searching a huge database (数据库) of
articles written by experts in the field, who are all getting information from the latest research.Wolters Kluwer Health, the company that makes UpToDate, is trying to incorporate (整合) AI so that doctors
can have more of a conversation with the database.
Some doctors hope to use AI to comb through a patient’s medical history before an appointment (预约). In some
,
cases Dr. June-Ho Kim, who directs a program on primary care at Ariadne Labs, says AI technology may also help
primary care doctors look after patients without the help of specialists. “It will free up specialists’ time to focus on
more difficult cases that they need to really home in on, rather than the ones that could be answered through a few
questions,” he says.
Dr. Marc Succi, who was a co-worker of Kim, says, “AI will finally prove to be a trusted medical tool. AI won’t
replace doctors, but doctors who use AI will replace doctors who do not. It will become very common just like
designing a PPT on a computer. It’s that level of leap.”
32. How does UpToDate help a doctor?
A. It looks after patients. B. It does a temperature test.
C. It offers useful information. D. It leads patients to doctors.
33. What do the underlined words “home in on” in paragraph 4 mean?
A. Concentrate on. B. Adapt to.
C. Waste time on. D. Have interest in.
34. What does Succi want to explain by mentioning PPT in the last paragraph?
A. The difficulty of writing. B. The user-friendlines s of AI.
C. The importance of a doctor. D. The advantages of office software.
35. What is the best title for the text?
A. AI in the Field of Medicine B. The Challenges of AI
C. Changes That AI Has Brought D. Doctors at Home or in the Office

stress in our lives, after all. ___36___ So challenge the following limits:
1.Figure out what you’re scared of and do it continuously.

But don’t stop on the first try! Eventually, you can look at fear in the eye and say, “Go on. I’m not scared!”
2. ___38___Make sure this hobby is not linked to your career; you have to relax and relieve your stress while performing
this. Some examples might be cooking, sewing, painting and so on. Apart from helping you challenge yourself,

3. Set aside at least nine minutes a day for physical exercise.
___39___ A simple 9-minute run around your neighborhood can do wonders for yourself. Exercise can not

67. 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。
Tom, a 15-year-old boy, and his mother Marissa didn’t have much in life, living daily with just enough to eat
three meals and pay the bills. Without his mother knowing, Tom had been saving up his pocket money for months
to buy her a birthday present. He had collected a total of $25.
As a cleaner at a nearby park, Marissa never took a bus, choosing to walk to and from work to save money.
One day, Tom noticed that her mother came home wet to the skin. She told him her umbrella broke because of the
strong wind and she wanted to get home in time to have dinner with him.
The following day, his mother woke up with a fever.
“Mom, don’t get up from bed,” Tom told her. “I’ll attend to you today. Here is your medicine,” he said,
handing it to her with a glass of water. After Marissa took the medicine, Tom walked to the nearby supermarket to
buy something to cook a hot bowl of soup for his mother.
It occurred to him that his mother’s birthday was in a couple of days, so he wanted to get her mother an
umbrella first and spend the rest of his money on food.
“What is your strongest umbrella here, sir?” he asked the shop assistant. “I am looking for something that
doesn’t break when hit by the wind and something that would last for years.” The man showed Tom some
umbrellas in different colors and Tom chose a purple one, which was his mother’s favorite color. It was $22. After
checking out, Tom couldn’t help smiling after being able to fit his $25 to buy everything he needed. He even hadsome money to spare!
While Tom was walking back home, it suddenly started to pour. He ran toward a nearby bus stop to seek
shelter when he noticed an old lady walking slowly while everyone around her ran toward shaded areas. Without
hesitation, he took the umbrella out of his bag. The old woman was surprised to feel that the rain had stopped
suddenly.
注意:
