house, playground and tennis court in its 15- acre grounds, and inside, a 12- seater cinema, not to mention the
popular children’s cookery school.(Augill Castle拥有城堡的特色,但却是微型的,它同样吸引着儿童和成人,
你很难找到一个更适合家庭的城堡,在15英亩的土地上有一个树屋、游乐场和网球场,里面还有一个12
座的电影院,更不用说受欢迎的儿童烹饪学校了)”可知,这个酒店为孩子们提供烹饪课程。故选B项。
【2题详解】
细节理解题。由Slaley Hall部分中的“Hexham, Northumberland”以及“From £89 per night(每晚89英镑
起)”可知,位于 Northumberland的这个酒店提供收费每晚低于150英镑的房间。故选C项。

“There are generous dedicated(专用的) times at the swimming pool for children. (游泳池为孩子们提供了慷慨
的专用时间)”可知,这两个酒店都为孩子们提供特定的游泳时间。故选D项。
B
At 60, mother-of-five Liz Earle is energised, clear-headed, and understands that the way she lives her life will
give her the best chance of longevity.
Earle, who sold her beauty company in 2010, isn’t one for standing still. She went on to found the Liz Earle
Wellbeing magazine, continues with TV appearances, launched the charity LiveTwice, hosts a weekly podcast, and
has written 36 books, including her latest, A Better Second Half, a manifesto (宣言) for midlife women.
She was in denial about ageing for a while. She says: “I turned 60 last year and I didn’t want to acknowledge
it. In my mother’s generation, 60 was grey hair, twinset and pearls, and slippers. I feel so far removed from that
stereotype (刻板印象).”
Earle, though, has defied the numbers. When she was in her mid-50s, she had her biological markers of age
tested, which showed her biological age to be 39. It’s now 45, but in the next few years she intends on getting that
marker down.
In her late 50s, Earle experienced a lot of upheavals in her personal life, divorcing her second husband and
failing in investment.“Starting again in my mid-50s was challenging but also energising, because it was an
opportunity for a fresh start,”she reflects. “I felt like I was being given a second chance. And I want to encourage
other women who feel that they are washed up, too.”
The wellness advice she offers in the book is backed by scientific data, and it’s clear that Earle has done a lot
of research in the three years it took to write it; she offers all manner of ways to maintain good health.
She is concerned that midlife women don’t prioritise themselves. “Society marginalises (使微不足道) midlife
women — we become invisible, we become irrelevant, whether that’s because we’re losing our looks, or we’re
losing our relevance in society. And, actually, that shouldn’t be the case. We’re the clever, wise ones who have lived
through it,” she explains.“ Ageing is a gift,”Earle continues,“Even when I was running the beauty company, we
never used the term anti-ageing well — keeping cognitive function, keeping mobility, having a purpose.”
Now, Earle is embracing all the good things that age has brought her, recently welcoming her first grandchild
into the world, and she says she is looking forward to the next decade.
4. Which of the following statements is TRUE about Earle?
A. She used to work as an employee in a beauty company.
B. She steps out of the comfort zone and embraces changes.
C. She believes she fits the stereotype of the 60- year- olds.D. She offered wellness advice without any scientific proof.
5. What does the underlined word “upheavals” in paragraph 5 mean?
A. Unfair treatments. B. Heavy burdens. C. Sharp criticisms. D. Unpleasant changes.
6. According to paragraph 7, what does Earle encourage midlife women to do?
A. To fight against ageing. B. To regain their wisdom.
C. To put themselves first. D. To accept plastic surgery.
7. What’s Earle’s attitude towards ageing?
A. Grateful. B. Fearful. C. Doubtful. D. Pitiful.
【答案】4. B 5. D 6. C 7. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇人物传记。讲述了60岁的丽兹·厄尔对衰老问题的看法及建议。
【4题详解】
推理判断题。从第二段中的“She went on to found the Liz Earle Wellbeing magazine, continues with TV
appearances, launched the charity LiveTwice, hosts a weekly podcast, and has written 36 books, including her
latest, A Better Second Half, a manifesto(宣言) for midlife women.(她后来创办了《Liz Earle Wellbeing》杂志,
继续在电视上露面,创办了慈善机构LiveTwice,主持每周播客,并写了36本书,包括她最新的《更好的
下半场》,这是一本面向中年女性的宣言)”可知,厄尔的生活丰富多彩,不满足于平淡生活。故选B项。
【5题详解】
词句猜测题。从第五段中的“ divorcing her second husband and failing in investment.(第二任丈夫离婚,投资
失败)”可知,厄尔经历了离婚,也就是人生的剧变,所以猜测upheaval表“剧变”的意思。故选D项。
【6题详解】
细节理解题。从第七段中的“She is concerned that midlife women don’t prioritise themselves.(她担心中年女性
不会优先考虑自己)”可知,厄尔担心中年女性不优先考虑自我,因此她鼓励中年女性将自己放在第一位。
故选C项。
【7题详解】
推理判断题。从第八段“Now, Earle is embracing all the good things that age has brought her, recently
welcoming her first grandchild into the world, and she says she is looking forward to the next decade.(现在,厄尔
正在拥抱年龄带给她的所有美好事物,最近迎来了她的第一个孙子,她说她期待着下一个十年)”以及上一
段内容可知,厄尔将变老看作一份礼物,并拥抱变老带来的一切好处,说明她对变老充满感恩之情。故选
A项。
C
Inflation (通货膨胀) is the word on everyone’s lips, as our coffers (金库) take a hit and prices seem to riseconstantly.
Meanwhile, inflation remains stubbornly high in many developed economies despite the interest rate rises
designed to bring prices down. The latest figures for the U. K. came in above expectations at 8.7% on an annual
basis, while the U. S. Consumer Price Index (指数) (CPI) for May rose by 4% from the previous year. Some
economists have found themselves considering a surprising potential contributor: music concerts. But what do
concerts and the economy have to do with one another?
From top singers to famous bands, Klaus Baader, global chief economist at Societe Generale, has tickets to see
various artists this year. “One of the things that struck me as odd is that acquiring tickets for these concerts
nowadays means people have to tighten their belt for a while,” he said.
“And a concert trip doesn’t end with a single ticket. It’s also related to Coca- Cola or hot dogs, the prices of
which are always hiked up when shows take place, let alone the accommodation,” he explained.
Take the Renaissance World Tour by a famous American singer- songwriter whose first stop was in Stockholm
in May as an example. “In the Swedish May inflation numbers, hotel prices rose more than what is usual for May,”
said Filip Andersson, from Danske Bank. “Hotels in the Stockholm region were reportedly fully booked the weeks
around the event and prices thus skyrocketed. Due to a third of Sweden’s hotel rooms being in the nation’s capital,
prices rose dramatically on a national scale.”
Economists have nicknamed the phenomenon: “tourflation”, which has stimulated analysts to give a lot of
thought to the upswing. “The concert market is booming. Understandably, this relates to supply and demand forces
— consumers are most interested in making up for their time lost during the COVID-19 lockdowns,” Baader
explained. He also pointed to changes in how musicians make a profit. “Artists’ models have changed from making
money by selling CDs towards earning revenues mostly from concerts,” Baader added.
The impact of concerts on inflation might be short- lived. In Sweden's case, Andersson believes the
normalization of inflation levels will occur later after the concert.
8. What can be concluded about inflation from paragraph 2?
A. It is a hard-to-tackle and lasting concern. B. It is positively correlated with interest rates.
C. It is much worse in rich developed countries. D. It is an outcome of ineffective financial adjustments.
9. What was Klaus Baader astonished by?
A. The limited food choices in concerts. B. The lack of availability of concert tickets.
C. The popularity of top singers and famous bands. D. The overall high expenses for attending concerts.
10. What does the example of the tour in Stockholm show?
A. Concerts can boost the acceptability of a city. B. Concerts promote the growth of local entertainment.
C. Concerts do more harm than good to the host city. D. Concerts can have broader impacts on the economy.11. What does Klaus Baader aim to explain in the sixth paragraph?
A. The reason for artists’ shifting their income models.
B. The supply and demand conflict in the music industry.
C. The underlying factors behind the tourflation phenomenon.
D. The impact of COVID-19 lockdowns on the concert market.
【答案】8. A 9. D 10. D 11. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了演唱会对通货膨胀的潜在影响。
【8题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段中的“Meanwhile, inflation remains stubbornly high in many developed economies
despite the interest rate rises designed to bring prices down. The latest figures for the U. K. came in above
expectations at 8.7% on an annual basis, while the U. S. Consumer Price Index (指数) (CPI) for May rose by 4%
from the previous year. (与此同时,在许多发达经济体,尽管加息旨在降低物价,但通胀仍居高不下。英国
的最新数据高于预期,同比增长8.7%,而美国5月份的消费者价格指数(CPI)比去年同期上涨了4%。)”可
知,通过金融措施如利率上涨也难以解决通货膨胀问题,因此可推知,通货膨胀是一个难以解决且持续存
在的问题。故选A。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中的““One of the things that struck me as odd is that acquiring tickets for these
concerts nowadays means people have to tighten their belt for a while,” he said. (“让我感到奇怪的一件事是,
现在买这些音乐会的票意味着人们不得不在一段时间内勒紧裤腰带,”他说。)”和第四段中的““And a
concert trip doesn’t end with a single ticket. It’s also related to Coca- Cola or hot dogs, the prices of which are
always hiked up when shows take place, let alone the accommodation,” he explained. (音乐会之旅不会以一张票
结束。这也与可口可乐或热狗有关,演出一开始,这些东西的价格就会上涨,更不用说住宿了。”)”可知,
巴德尔对看演唱会的整体高费用感到惊讶。故选D。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据第五段中的““In the Swedish May inflation numbers, hotel prices rose more than what is
usual for May,” said Filip Andersson, from Danske Bank. “Hotels in the Stockholm region were reportedly fully
booked the weeks around the event and prices thus skyrocketed. Due to a third of Sweden’s hotel rooms being in
the nation’s capital, prices rose dramatically on a national scale.”(“瑞典丹斯克银行的菲利普·安德森表示:
“在瑞典5月份的通胀数据中,酒店价格涨幅超过了5月份的正常水平。”据报道,斯德哥尔摩地区的酒
店在活动前后几周被订满,因此价格飙升。由于瑞典三分之一的酒店客房位于首都,因此房价在全国范围
内大幅上涨。”)”可知,拿去斯德哥尔摩看演唱会举例是为了说明在某个城市举办演唱会,会对其经济造成影响甚至会波及全国,故音乐会对经济有更广泛的影响。故选D。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据第六段“Economists have nicknamed the phenomenon: “tourflation”, which has stimulated
analysts to give a lot of thought to the upswing. “The concert market is booming. Understandably, this relates to
supply and demand forces— consumers are most interested in making up for their time lost during the COVID-19
lockdowns,” Baader explained. He also pointed to changes in how musicians make a profit. “Artists’ models have
changed from making money by selling CDs towards earning revenues mostly from concerts,” Baader added.(经济
学家给这种现象起了个绰号:“通货膨胀”,这促使分析人士对经济的回升进行了大量思考。“演唱会市
场正在蓬勃发展。可以理解,这与供需力量有关——消费者最感兴趣的是弥补他们在COVID-19封锁期间
损失的时间,”巴德尔解释说。他还指出了音乐家盈利方式的变化。巴德尔补充说:“艺术家们的模式已
经从靠卖CD赚钱转变为主要靠演唱会赚钱。)”可知,巴德尔阐述了巡演通货膨胀这一现象背后的影响因
素,包括后疫情时代音乐会市场火热发展和艺人收入模式的改变两方面。故选C。
D
These students wandering through the woods on the outskirts (郊区) of Portland, Oregon, aren’t on a school
field trip — this muddy field is their school. From the moment they’re dropped off in the morning, they spend their
entire day outside in one of Oregon’s public parks. “Rain or shine, we’re out here,” said teacher Christine Fleener.
On this surprisingly nice day, Fleener’s class of fifth graders headed to the grassland for a biology lesson.
Further down the trail, a group of fourth graders is learning on logs. It’s school, just not the type of school you
might be used to. “Forest school is where the classroom does not have walls,” said Tony Deis, one of the founders
of Trackers Earth Forest School. “It’s how kids originally learned; they didn’t learn sitting at desks, facing forward,
and looking at a teacher. They learned from a multi-sensory environment.”
Over the past decade, outdoor forest schools have gained popularity in the United States. The idea is that the
challenges that come with being outside all day — dealing with weather, building your own shelter, and unearthing
the unexpected are all part of the learning process.
It’s complicated, of course. Outdoor schooling involves a puzzle of weather and regulations and budget issues.
A well-funded private school in Portland, Oregon is one thing, but what about a public school in Portland, Maine?
Surprisingly, cold Maine, of all places, has been quick to adopt outdoor learning.
The district isn’t all out side all the time, but certain classes, like art, have moved outdoors. Supplies came
from federal (联邦的) funds and local donations. And while Maine has plenty of open space, Brooke Teller, the
outdoor learning coordinator (协调人) for Portland Public Schools, believes schools in major cities could have
green classrooms hiding underneath their pavement (路面). She said, “We have a few hundred landscape architectsall across the country who have volunteered to be a thought partner with schools that want to figure out where on
their grounds would be best for outdoor learning.”
12. What does the author describe at the beginning of the text?
A. The routine of a forest school. B. The popularity of public parks.
C. An interesting school field trip. D. An unforgettable biology lesson.
13. What is the main philosophy behind the concept of forest schools?
A. Kids learn by outdoor practice. B. Kids learn out of curiosity.
C. Kids learn by challenging others. D. Kids learn by interacting with others.
14. What does Teller suggest schools that want to start outdoor education do?
A. Start from certain classes. B. Work with landscape architects.
C. Make use of their open space. D. Build green classrooms underground.
15. What can be the best title for the text?
A. A new way of learning B. Benefits of learning outdoors
C. Outdoor forest schools D. Outdoor education in Oregon
【答案】12. A 13. A 14. B 15. C
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了美国的户外森林学校越来越受欢迎,解释了其教学理念以及存
在的挑战。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“These students wandering through the woods on the outskirts (郊区) of Portland,
Oregon, aren’t on a school field trip — this muddy field is their school. From the moment they’re dropped off in
the morning, they spend their entire day outside in one of Oregon’s public parks. “Rain or shine, we’re out here,”
said teacher Christine Fleener.(这些学生在俄勒冈州波特兰市郊区的树林里闲逛,他们不是在学校实地考察
——这片泥泞的田野就是他们的学校。从早上下车的那一刻起,他们就会在俄勒冈州的一个公园里度过一
整天。“无论晴雨,我们都在这里,”克里斯汀·弗莱纳老师说)”可知,作者在文章的开头描述了森林学
校的日常生活。故选A。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“It’s how kids originally learned; they didn’t learn sitting at desks, facing forward, and
looking at a teacher. They learned from a multi-sensory environment.(这是孩子们最初的学习方式;他们不是坐
在课桌前,面朝前,看着老师学习。他们从多感官环境中学习)”可知,森林学校概念背后的主要理念是孩
子们通过户外实践来学习。故选A。
【14题详解】细节理解题。根据最后一段“She said, “We have a few hundred landscape architects all across the country who
have volunteered to be a thought partner with schools that want to figure out where on their grounds would be best
for outdoor learning.”(她说,“我们在全国各地有几百名景观设计师,他们自愿成为学校的思想伙伴,帮助
学校找到户外学习的最佳场地。”)”可知,泰勒建议那些想开展户外教育的学校与景观设计师合作。故选
B。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第三段“Over the past decade, outdoor forest schools have gained popularity in the United
States. The idea is that the challenges that come with being outside all day — dealing with weather, building your
own shelter, and unearthing the unexpected are all part of the learning process.(在过去的十年里,户外森林学校
在美国越来越受欢迎。他们的想法是,整日在外的挑战——应对天气、建造自己的庇护所、发现意想不到
的事情——都是学习过程的一部分)”结合文章主要说明了美国的户外森林学校越来越受欢迎,解释了其教
学理念以及存在的挑战。可知,C选项“户外森林学校”最符合文章标题。故选C。
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。
Artificial intelligence (AI) tools have become extremely powerful, surprising even their creators. Now, some
people say there should be a pause in AI work to make sure it doesn’t become dangerous. ___16___
Most people have probably read a book or seen a movie or show about AI or a robot that has become so smart
that it can take over the world. Most current AI tools are good at just one task, like answering questions, or
identifying objects in photos.
But scientists have been working to improve AI models, mainly by training the models on larger and larger
collections of information. ___17___ Extremely large models have surprised even their creators with what they
can do.
Some recent models can create realistic photos from a short written description. Others can re-create anyone’s
voice saying anything based on a voice recording just a few seconds long.
___18___ But really, ChatGPT is simply guessing— based on its training information whose word is most
likely to come next, over and over again.
The rapid progress of recent AI models worries some people. Last week, many computer experts released a
letter calling for a six-month pause for any work on AI tools. The letter claimed AI companies were in a race to
create “powerful digital minds” that no one can “understand, predict, or control”. ___19___
Not all AI experts agree with the letter. Some say the letter makes today’s AI tools sound more intelligent thanthey really are. Others say it’s more important to worry about real problems with current AI tools rather than
imaginary ones in the future.
___20___ Therefore, many companies are more likely to keep developing powerful AI tools. But the letter
has sent a strong warning that many people including leaders will be thinking about this matter carefully.
A. This causes terror.
B. However, not everyone agrees.
C. Those efforts are paying off.
D. ChatGPT has caused so much excitement.
E. ChatGPT appears to be extremely intelligent.
F. They expect laws to make sure AI tools are safe.
G. They predict the threat of AI will be powerful.
【答案】16. B 17. C 18. E 19. F 20. D
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。本文主要讨论了人工智能工具是否真的变得过于强大的问题。
【16题详解】
根据前面提到的“Now, some people say there should be a pause in AI work to make sure it doesn’t become
dangerous.(现在,有人说应该暂停人工智能的工作,以确保它不会变得危险。)”以及倒数第二段中的
“Not all AI experts agree with the letter.(并非所有人工智能专家都同意这封信。 )”可知,一些人建议人工
智能工具应该暂停,以确保它不会变得危险,下文应接着说明人们对该建议的反应。所以B项However,
not everyone agrees.(然而,这种说法并不是人人都同意)符合语境,有承上启下作用。故选B项。
【17题详解】
结合前面的“But scientists have been working to improve AI models, mainly by training the models on larger and
larger collections of information. (但科学家们一直在努力改进人工智能模型,主要是通过在越来越大的信息
集合上训练模型。)”以及后面的“Extremely large models have surprised even their creators with what they can
do.(超大型模型的性能甚至让它们的创造者都感到惊讶。)”可知,这里主要讲科学家们努力改进人工智能
模型并取得成绩,所以C项Those efforts are paying off.(这些努力得到了回报)符合语境,其中Those efforts
代指上文 scientists have been working to improve AI models。其中paying off与下文的成就对应,所以本句
有承上启下作用。故选C项。
【18题详解】
根据后面的“But really, ChatGPT is simply guessing— based on its training information whose word is most
likely to come next, over and over again.(但实际上,ChatGPT只是猜测——根据它的训练信息,谁的单词最
有可能一次又一次地出现。)”可知,ChatGPT并不是很聪明,其实只不过是靠猜测。所以E项ChatGPTappears to be extremely intelligent.(ChatGPT似乎非常聪明。)符合语境,与后文形成对比。故选E项。
【19题详解】
根据前面的“The letter claimed AI companies were in a race to create‘ powerful digital minds’ that no one can‘
understand, predict, or control’.(这封信声称,人工智能公司正在竞相创造没有人能够‘理解、预测或控
制’的‘强大的数字思维’。)”可知,他们认为人工智能公司正在竞相创造无人能“理解、预测或控制”
的“强大的数字思维”。因此他们呼吁应该制定法律,以确保人工智能工具是安全的。所以F项They
expect laws to make sure AI tools are safe.(他们希望法律能够确保人工智能工具的安全。)符合语境,有承上
作用。故选F项。
【20题详解】
结合后面的“Therefore, many companies are more likely to keep developing powerful AI tools.(因此,许多公司
更有可能继续开发强大的人工智能工具。)”可知,许多公司仍看好人工智能,而D项ChatGPT has caused
so much excitement.(ChatGPT引起了如此多的兴奋。)符合语境,对下文有总括作用。故选D项。

47. 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。
“Not again!” Aliya shouted angrily, looking at the marks she had attained in her maths test.
It seemed as if failing in the math test had become a part and parcel of her life. Despite her efforts, she had been
unable to perform well. Tears in her eyes, she quickly shoved (乱塞) the paper into her bag before any classmate
could make a rude comment on her.
Effortlessly, using the back of her palm, she was wiping the tears when her teacher Mrs Leena noticed her. She
came to Aliya’s desk and, in a soft voice, asked her to see her during the break time.
Wondering what it could be, Aliya waited impatiently for lunchtime. Finally, when the bell rang, she made her
way to Mrs Leena. As soon as she saw Aliya, she gestured for her to sit on the empty chair beside her.
She carefully studied her face, cleared her throat with a bright smile and said, “You seem to be anxious. I think
I know what’s bothering you. If you allow me I think together we may come up with a good solution.”
With a puzzled look, she said, “Well ma’am, you know I have been struggling in maths since the beginning of
the term. It seems as if no matter how hard I work, I am unable to get the desired result. I feel so upset,” she said
sadly.
“You need not be so gloomy,” encouraged Mrs Leena. “With these three key ingredients: hard work, determination
and resilience (韧性), you will move ahead and succeed. It’s always the first step that’s difficult, but once you decide
not to look back and not give up, you will be successful, my dear. Come on, gather yourself and let’s work on it
together.”
From that day onwards, Aliya worked hard, religiously following her teacher’s advice. By the time the final
exams drew close, she had thoroughly revised her math book and well-prepared.

【答案】On the exam day, a fear of failure upset her stomach. Aliya's heart raced as she sat down in front of the
desk. She took a deep breath, trying to recall the encouragement from Mrs. Leena. As she began the test, the questions
seemed difficult at first, but she pushed through, step by step, using the strategies she had learned. With each question
she completed, her confidence grew. By the end of the exam, Aliya felt a sense of accomplishment, not because she
was sure she had aced it, but because she had faced her fears and given it her all.
She passed her math exam with an unbelievable A grade on her report card. The moment she saw the grade, tears of
joy welled up in her eyes. It wasn't just a grade. It was a testament to her hard work, her teacher's unwavering support,
and the resilience she had found within herself. Aliya left the room with her head held high, no longer the student
who dreaded math, but a young woman who had conquered her fears and believed in her abilities.
