Angeles three years ago. Last year, he and his family moved from Los Angeles to Philadelphia.

pressure to meet deadlines, life here is never boring.
W: What’s been hard about being an Indianan basketball player?

really didn’t have to do that. I’m just trying to get used to it. And I think I am.
W: At this point, how do you see yourself fitting into this group?
M: I think we’re all different. George is from Britain. Chris and Leo are from Australia. I’m from France. And the rest are

It’s a new age and you need to reinvent yourself. Here are some inspiring books to read that are woven into my
creativity, business and marketing habits.
Steal like an ArtistThis book by Austin Kleon explains that you don’t need to be a genius, you just need to be yourself. That’s the
message from Austin, a young writer and artist who knows that creativity is everywhere, creativity is for everyone. Steal
Like an Artist is a guide whose positive message, graphic look and illustrations, exercises, and examples will put readers
directly in touch with their artistic side.
The One Thing
This inspirational book by Gary Keller reveals the power of focusing on your “one thing”. His New York Times
bestselling books have sold more than 2 million copies. He also reveals the “One” thing that made Keller Williams Realty,
Inc., one of the largest real estate companies in the world. What was that? It was writing a book that positioned him and his
company as the authority in real estate in the USA.
Do the Work
This short but powerful and inspiring book by Steven Pressfield was revealing about a problem that many of us have—
having a lot of great ideas but not doing the work. This book led to my adopting the Mantra “Done is better than perfect”.
The Lean Startup:How Relentless Change Creates Radically Successful Businesses
The digital age has turned almost every aspect of our world on its head. This extends to our personal lives and how we
do business. The author Eric Ries provides a scientific approach to creating and managing successful startups in an age
when companies need to innovate more than ever. I found this a great book to challenge my thinking and grow my business.
21.What is required to be creative based on Austin Kleon?
A.To have some talent. B.To be positive.
C.To read many books. D.To act naturally.
22.Who refers to one of the largest real estate companies in the world?
A.Austin Kleon. B.Gary Keller.
C.Steven Pressfield. D.Eric Ries.
23.If you want to put your thinking to the test, which book best suits you ?
A.The One Thing B.Do the Work
C.The Lean Startup D.Steal like an Artist
【答案】21.D 22.B 23.C
【解析】这是一篇应用文。文章作者向读者推荐四本鼓舞人心,有利于人们创意的书。
21.细节理解题。根据Steal like an Artist中“This book by Austin Kleon explains that you don’t need to be a genius,
you just need to be yourself. That’s the message from Austin, a young writer and artist who knows that creativity is
everywhere, creativity is for everyone. (Austin Kleon的这本书告诉我们,你不需要成为天才,你只需要做你自己。
这是Austin传达的信息,他是一位年轻的作家和艺术家,他知道创造力无处不在,创造力适合每个人。)”可知,
基于Austin Kleon的创意需要自身本能地行动。故选D项。
22.细节理解题。根据The One Thing中“He also reveals the ‘one’ thing that made Keller Williams Realty, Inc., one of
the largest real estate companies in the world. (他还揭示了使Keller Williams Realty, Inc.成为世界上最大的房地产公司
之一的‘一件事’。)”等内容可知,提到世界上最大的房地产公司之一的作者是Gary Keller。故选B项。
23.细节理解题。根据最后一段The Lean Startup中“I found this a great book to challenge my thinking and grow my
business. (我发现这是一本很棒的书,可以挑战我的思维,发展我的业务。)”可知,如果你想测试一下你的思维,
就选择The Lean Startup。故选C项。
B
When reading, my mother likes to slice a paragraph or a sentence out and attach it to the wall of her kitchen. She picks
boring sentences that puzzle me. But I prefer copying favorite bright lines into a journal in soft, gray No. 2 pencil, word byword.
She doesn’t know any of this. There's nothing shocking: for our chatting. we seldom begin certain conversations
though we talk on the phone weekly, sometimes making each other laugh so hard that I choke and she cries. But what we
don't say could fill up rooms. Fights with my father. Small failures in school. Anything that really upsets us.
My mother has never told me “I love you, Lisa.”—as if the four-word absence explains who I am—so I carry it with
me, like a label on me. The last time she almost spoke the words was two years ago, when she called to tell me a friend had
been in hospital. I said, “I love you, Mom.” She stopped for a while and then said, “Thank you.” I haven't said it since, but
I've wondered why my mother doesn't until I've found a poem that supplies words for the blank spaces I try to understand in
our conversations:
Don’t fill up on bread. I say absent-mindedly. The servings here are huge.
My son, middle-aged, says: Did you really just say that to me?
What he doesn’t know is that when we’re walking together, I desire to reach for his hand.
It's humble, yet heartbreaking. After copying it down in my journal, I emailed it to mom, adding “This poem makes me
think of you.” My mother doesn’t read poetry—or at least, she doesn’t tell me, and I felt nervous clicking “Send”.
She never mentioned the poem. But the next time I went home for vacation, I noticed something new in the kitchen
fixed to an antique board: the poem. The board hung above the heater, the warmest spot in the kitchen. The poem still hangs
there. Neither my mother nor I have ever spoken about it.
24.What's the function of paragraph 1?
A.To stress the theme. B.To establish the setting.
C.To represent the characters. D.To create the atmosphere.
25.Which of the following best describes the mother daughter relationship?
A.Shaky. B.Distant. C.Reserved. D.Intense.
26.Why did the author send the poem to her mom?
A.It reminded her of mom's love.
B.She wanted to apologize to mom.
C.It suited mom's taste of literature.
D.She needed an interpretation from mom.
27.What does the poem mean to mom?
A.A memory of golden days.
B.Daughter’s gratefulness to her.
C.A decoration in the plain kitchen.
D.Daughter's understanding of her.
【答案】24.C 25.C 26.A 27.D
【解析】这是一篇记叙文。主要讲述了作者和母亲对于表达爱时的关系,母亲的内敛和寡言少语让作者很不理解,
但是最终一首诗让作者意味着女儿对她的理解。
24.推理判断题。根据第一段“When reading, my mother likes to slice a paragraph or a sentence out and attach it to the
wall of her kitchen. She picks boring sentences that puzzle me. But I prefer copying favorite bright lines into a journal in
soft, gray No. 2 pencil, word by word.”(读书的时候,我妈妈喜欢剪下一段或一个句子,贴在厨房的墙上。她挑了一
些无聊的句子让我迷惑不解。但我更喜欢用柔软的灰色2号铅笔把我喜欢的明亮线条逐字逐句地抄在日记本
上。)可推知,第一段的作用是来展示人物性格特征。故选C项。
25.推理判断题。根据第三段中“My mother has never told me “I love you, Lisa. ”—as if the four-word absenceexplains who I am—so I carry it with me, like a label on me. The last time she almost spoke the words was two years ago,
when she called to tell me a friend had been in hospital. I said, “I love you, Mom.” She stopped for a while and then said,
“Thank you.””(我妈妈从来没有对我说过“我爱你,丽莎。”——仿佛这四个字的缺席说明了我是谁,所以我随
身携带着它,就像身上的标签一样。她最后一次差点说出这句话是在两年前,当时她打电话告诉我一个朋友住院
了。我说:“我爱你,妈妈。”她停了一会儿,然后说:“谢谢。”)可推知,“寡言少语的,内敛的”是最能
描述母女关系的。故选C项。
26.细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中“After copying it down in my journal, I emailed it to mom, adding “This poem
makes me think of you.””(我把这首诗抄在日记里,用电子邮件发给了妈妈,并补充说:“这首诗让我想起了
你。”)可知,作者把这首诗寄给她的妈妈是因为这让她想起了妈妈的爱。故选A项。
27.细节理解题。根据第三段中“I haven't said it since, but I've wondered why my mother doesn't until I've found a
poem that supplies words for the blank spaces I try to understand in our conversations.”(从那以后,我再也没有说过这
句话,但我一直在想,为什么母亲一直不说,直到我找到了一首诗,为我在谈话中试图理解的空白提供了词
汇。)可知,这首诗对妈妈意味着女儿对她的理解。故选D项。
C
Can you imagine getting a tooth pulled out or other major dental procedures without pain-killer? A scientist colleague
of mine used a “focus in” technique instead of requesting pain-killer at the dentist. Each time the dentist touched the tooth,
my colleague felt bubbles of joy, and this lasted until the dentist interrupted by asking, “Why are you smiling?”
A fair question at this point is why anyone would want to be fully aware of intense or painful procedures. But what
may sound like a punishing choice—to directly face hurt or suffering—may in some instances be beneficial. A stream of
scientific articles suggests that there are benefits in turning toward discomfort or negative emotions with acceptance. In
addition, all of us can gain from finding ways to cope with stress and suffering—particularly when larger circumstances are
beyond our control. As a researcher who has studied meditation (冥想) for more than 20 years, I believe that the
development of calmness, a central element of certain mindfulness meditation practices, can help. I’m not advocating for
people to put themselves in dangerous or painful positions. But when we push ourselves into challenging or confusing
situations, much like trainers who push athletes just past their comfort zone to make gains, learning often happens. Indeed, a
2022 study with more than 2,000 people demonstrated that those participants who were publicly encouraged to push
themselves into awkward, uncomfortable situations—including taking classes to boost self-confidence and reading about
opposing viewpoints—later reported the greatest degree of personal growth.
My own research indicates that meditation provides an ideal way to practice turning toward discomfort-particularly
when it trains up one’s calm mind. People who reported higher levels of calmness reported less psychological distress (困
扰).
Right now people are hurting for many reasons and looking for ways to cope. Without question, there are many
important steps we need to take collectively to respond to these challenges. But we can each build our ability to recover on a
personal level as well by cultivating greater acceptance of our experience—good or bad, painful or pleasant—in the present
moment.
28.The author uses the first question in Paragraph 1 to________.
A.introduce the topic.
B.illustrate an argument.
C.highlight an opinion.
D.promote a pain-killer.
29.What is the benefit of turning towards discomfort and negative emotions?A.It helps in avoiding suffering fully.
B.It increases psychological distress.
C.It leads to personal growth.
D.It promotes a sense of calmness.
30.What is the author’s view on putting oneself in dangerous or painful positions?
A.The author encourages it as a way to improve fitness.
B.The author discourages it due to its potential harm.
C.The author believes it is necessary for personal growth.
D.The author recommends it to those confused trainers.
31.What can be a suitable title for the text?
A.Turning Towards Discomfort: My Experience of Staying Stressful and Successful
B.Expanding Comfort Zones: The Difference Between Discomfort and Calmness
C.Mindfulness and Meditation: The Tools for Dealing with Stress and Suffering
D.Cultivating Calmness: The Benefits of Mindfulness in Enjoying Dental Operation
【答案】28.A 29.C 30.B 31.C
【解析】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了正念冥想可以帮助我们应对压力和痛苦。
28.推理判断题。根据第一段中“Can you imagine getting a tooth pulled out or other major dental procedures without
pain-killer?(你能想象在没有止痛药的情况下拔牙或进行其他主要牙科手术吗?)”和第二段中“A stream of scientific
articles suggests that there are benefits in turning toward discomfort or negative emotions with acceptance. In addition, all
of us can gain from finding ways to cope with stress and suffering—particularly when larger circumstances are beyond our
control. As a researcher who has studied meditation (冥想) for more than 20 years, I believe that the development of
calmness, a central element of certain mindfulness meditation practices, can help.(一系列科学文章表明,接受不适或负
面情绪是有好处的。此外,我们所有人都可以从找到应对压力和痛苦的方法中获益——特别是当更大的情况超出
我们的控制范围时。作为一名研究冥想20多年的研究人员,我相信,作为某些正念冥想练习的核心元素,冷静的
发展会有所帮助)”可推知,作者在第一段提出这一问题是为了引出文章主题——正念冥想有助于应对压力和痛苦。
故选A。
29.细节理解题。根据第二段中“Indeed, a 2022 study with more than 2,000 people demonstrated that those participants
who were publicly encouraged to push themselves into awkward,uncomfortable situations—including taking classes to
boost self-confidence and reading about opposing viewpoints—later reported the greatest degree of personal growth.(事实
上,2022年一项针对2000多人的研究表明,那些被公开鼓励让自己陷入尴尬、不舒服的境地的参与者——包括参
加课程来增强自信和阅读相反的观点——后来报告称个人成长程度最高)”可知,面向不适和负面情绪的好处是它会
带来个人成长。故选C。
30.细节理解题。根据第二段中“I’m not advocating for people to put themselves in dangerous or painful positions. (我
并不是提倡人们将自己置于危险或痛苦的境地)”可知,作者并不提倡将自己置于危险或痛苦的境地,因为这会存在
危险。故选B。
31.主旨大意题。通读全文,尤其是第二段中“A stream of scientific articles suggests that there are benefits in turning
toward discomfort or negative emotions with acceptance. In addition, all of us can gain from finding ways to cope with
stress and suffering—particularly when larger circumstances are beyond our control. As a researcher who has studied

绍了正念冥想可以帮助我们应对压力和痛苦,C项“正念和冥想:应对压力和痛苦的工具”适合作文章标题。故
选C。
D
“Few articles change owners more frequently than clothes. They travel downwards from grade to grade in the social
scale with remarkable regularity,” wrote the journalist Adolphe Smith in 1877 as he traced a coat’s journey in the last
century: cleaned, repaired and resold repeatedly; cut down into a smaller item; eventually recycled into new fabric. But with
the improvement in people’s living standards, that model is mind-boggling in the era of fast fashion. The average British
customer buys four items a month. And it is reported that 350,000 tonnes of used but still wearable clothes go to landfills in
the UK each year.
Yet the gradual revival of the second-hand trade has gathered pace in the past few years. At fashion website Asos, sales
of vintage clothes (古董衫) have risen by 92%. Clothing was once worn out of necessity, and now it is simply a way of life.
Busy families sell used items on eBay, teenagers trade on Depop and some fashion people offer designer labels on Vestiaire
Collective. Strikingly, it has become big enough business that mainstream retailers (零售商) want a slice of the action.
For some buyers and sellers, the switch to the second-hand is born of financial difficulties. Only a few have become
worried about the impact of their shopping habit on the planet. But the shift is only a partial solution. Some people worry
that some mainstream brands may “greenwash” — using second-hand goods to improve their image, rather than engaging
more seriously with sustainability.
However, the biggest concern may be that people keep buying because they know they can resell goods, still chasing
the pleasure of the next purchase but with an eased conscience (愧疚). Boohoo, a powerful fast fashion company, has seen
sales and profits rise, despite concerns about environmental problems in its supply chain that led to an investigation last
year.
A new Netflix series, Worn Stories, documents the emotional meanings that clothes can have: Each old item is full of
memories. Actually, a handbag from a grandmother and a scarf passed on by a father are both valuable for us. A love of
style is not a bad or an unimportant thing. But a committed relationship is better than a quick flash. Can we learn to
appreciate our own old clothes as well as others’?
32.What does the word “mind-boggling” underlined in paragraph 1 probably mean?
A.Unbelievable. B.Popular. C.Reasonable. D.Influential.
33.With the business mentioned in paragraph 2, the author wants to show _______.
A.old clothes are more popular than new pieces
B.the online second-hand markets are booming
C.the fashion world begins to favor vintage clothes
D.many clothing brands are innovative in their new products
34.How does the second-hand trade impact people according to paragraph 4?
A.It makes people feel free to pursue fast fashion.
B.It makes people more cautious about their budgets.
C.It encourages people to choose eco-friendly clothes.
D.It pushes people to be more engaged with sustainability.
35.Which of the following views does Worn Stories advocate?A.Old items have lost favor with the public.
B.Old items are worthy of being long cherished.
C.Older generations attach great importance to old items.
D.Older generations care about the quality of their clothes.
【答案】32.A 33.B 34.A 35.B
【解析】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了与从前反复使用衣服的模式不同,现在大家往往追逐快时尚,造成了很
大浪费,不过网上二手市场正在蓬勃发展,但只有少部分人是真的认识到了自己的购物习惯对地球的影响,而且
一些主流品牌有可能会借此机会来“洗绿”,很多人有可能会继续购买。文章指出,虽然追求风格无可厚非,但
是学会欣赏旧衣服实际上是很有意义的。
32.词句猜测题。根据划线词的上文“as he traced a coat’s journey in the last century: cleaned, repaired and resold
repeatedly; cut down into a smaller item; eventually recycled into new fabric (他追溯了一件大衣在上个世纪的历程:反
复清洗、修理和转售;缩为成更小件的;最终被回收制成新的织物)”可知,以前的衣服会被反复多次使用,再结合
表示转折意义的“But”和划线词的下文“The average British customer buys four items a month. And it is reported that
350,000 tonnes of used but still wearable clothes go to landfills in the UK each year. (英国消费者平均每月购买四件商品。
据报道,英国每年有35万吨用过但还能穿的衣服被送往垃圾填埋场)”可知,现在情况和以前不同,衣服更迭速度
很快,很多衣服被浪费了。由此可知,以前衣服循环使用的模式在现在快时尚的时代是令人难以置信的,划线词
意思应该与unbelievable“令人难以置信的”一致。故选A项。
33.推理判断题。根据第二段中“At fashion website Asos, sales of vintage clothes (古董衫) have risen by 92%.
Clothing was once worn out of necessity, and now it is simply a way of life. Busy families sell used items on eBay,
teenagers trade on Depop and some fashion people offer designer labels on Vestiaire Collective. Strikingly, it has become
big enough business that mainstream retailers (零售商) want a slice of the action. (在时尚网站Asos,古着的销量增长了
92%。衣服曾经是出于需要而穿,现在它只是一种生活方式。忙碌的家庭在eBay上出售二手物品,青少年在
Depop上交易,一些时尚人士在Vestiaire Collective上出售设计师品牌。引人注目的是,它已经成为一个足够大的
业务,主流零售商也想分一杯羹)”可知,网络二手交易销量增长,不同的人群在不同的平台交易二手衣服,主流零

34.细节理解题。根据第四段中“However, the biggest concern may be that people keep buying because they know they
can resell goods, still chasing the pleasure of the next purchase but with an eased conscience (愧疚). (然而,最大的担忧可
能是,人们继续购买,因为他们知道他们可以转售商品,仍然在追求下一次购买的乐趣,但良心上有所放松)”可知,
二手交易业务让人们有了处理已购商品的方法,解除了购买不必要衣服的愧疚感,可以继续购买衣服,即让人们
可以自由地追求快时尚。故选A项。
35.推理判断题。根据最后一段中“A new Netflix series, Worn Stories, documents the emotional meanings that clothes
can have: Each old item is full of memories. Actually, a handbag from a grandmother and a scarf passed on by a father are
both valuable for us. (Netflix的一部新剧《旧衣往事》记录了衣服的情感含义:每一件旧衣服都充满了回忆。其实,
祖母送的手提包和父亲送的围巾对我们来说都很有价值)”可知,这部剧表明旧衣服具有情感含义,充满回忆,富有

How to master tricky conversations at work
Many of us struggle to say what we need to at work. Whether it’s asking for a pay rise or facing a co-worker over their
behaviour, these conversations can be difficult to have without the other person getting angry. 36 . Here’s my tips
on how to tackle your next difficult conversation.Plan
First, you need to plan what you’re going to say. 37 . Write down what you want out of the conversation and
be clear on what you want to happen as a result. For example, you may decide: “I want to get an agreement on deadlines for
this project and a clear outline of who will be responsible for each task.”
Prepare
The second thing you need to do is write down the key messages you want to get across in the conversation. 38
. Remember to speak slowly, breathe. If you are particularly nervous, rehearse (排练) what you plan to say in front of a
friend so you know you are coming across as you wish to.
Be empathetic
Finally, put yourself in the other person’s shoes — however annoying that person might be. The useless boss who
never gives you feedback is simply struggling with her own workload. 39 , the more we can plan how to work
with them towards a successful outcome.
When you have the conversation, don’t get blind-sided by fast talkers. If the person you’re speaking to starts to avoid
blame or your questioning, ask them what their part is in all of this and what they can take responsibility for. 40 .
And finally, if you feel under pressure, remember to respond slowly rather than reacting quickly.
A.Practise saying them out loud
B.Start with the end result in mind
C.The language you use is also important
D.The more careful you’re with the language you use
E.The more we can understand the other person’s worldview
F.To manage your emotions during a difficult conversation, breathe deeply
G.But not being able to have “that conversation” can hold you back in your career
【答案】36.G 37.B 38.A 39.E 40.F
【解析】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了在工作中掌握棘手的对话的方法。
36.根据上文“Many of us struggle to say what we need to at work. Whether it’s asking for a pay rise or facing a co-
worker over their behaviour, these conversations can be difficult to have without the other person getting angry. (我们中的
许多人都很难说出我们在工作中需要什么。无论是要求加薪还是面对同事的行为,这些对话都很难在对方不生气
的情况下进行。)”以及后文“Here’s my tips on how to tackle your next difficult conversation. (下面是我的建议,教你
如何应对下一次棘手的对话)”可知,本句与上文构成转折,指出无法进行上文提到的对话,后文给出建议。故G
选项“但是不能进行‘那种对话’会阻碍你的职业发展”符合语境,故选G。
37.根据上文“First, you need to plan what you’re going to say. (首先,你需要计划你要说什么)”以及后文“Write
down what you want out of the conversation and be clear on what you want to happen as a result. For example, you may
decide: “I want to get an agreement on deadlines for this project and a clear outline of who will be responsible for each
task.”( 写下你想从谈话中得到什么,并明确你想要的结果。例如,你可能会决定:“我想在这个项目的最后期限
上达成一致,并明确规定谁将负责每项任务。”)”可知,后文提到了明确想要的结果,即以结果为出发点。故B
选项“以最终结果为出发点”符合语境,故选B。
38.根据上文“The second thing you need to do is write down the key messages you want to get across in the
conversation. (你需要做的第二件事是写下你想要在对话中传达的关键信息。)”以及后文“Remember to speak slowly,
breathe. If you are particularly nervous, rehearse (排练) what you plan to say in front of a friend so you know you are
coming across as you wish to. (记住说慢点,呼吸。如果你特别紧张,那就在朋友面前排练一下你打算说什么,这样
你就知道你给人的印象是你想说。)”可知,上文提到了写下信息,可知本句是说接下来要开始练习要说的内容。故A选项“练习大声说出来”符合语境,故选A。
39.根据后文“the more we can plan how to work with them towards a successful outcome. (我们就越能计划如何与他
们一起取得成功。)”可知,后文提到了计划取得成功,说明本句是要互相理解。且E选项中The more与后文the
more构成the+比较级,the+比较级句型。故E选项“我们越能理解对方的世界观”符合语境,故选E。
40.根据上文“When you have the conversation, don’t get blind-sided by fast talkers. If the person you’re speaking to
starts to avoid blame or your questioning, ask them what their part is in all of this and what they can take responsibility for.
(当你和别人交谈时,不要被那些语速很快的人弄得措手不及。如果和你谈话的人开始逃避责备或你的问题,问问
他们在这一切中扮演了什么角色,他们可以承担什么责任。)”以及后文“And finally, if you feel under pressure,
remember to respond slowly rather than reacting quickly. (最后,如果你感到有压力,记住反应要慢,而不是反应要
快。)”可知,上文提到不要被那些语速很快的人弄得措手不及,可知本句是在建议如何应对艰难的谈话。故F选项
“在一场艰难的谈话中,要控制自己的情绪,深呼吸”符合语境,故选F。

第二节(共10小题;每小题1. 5分, 满分15分)
阅读下面材料,在空白处填入适当的内容(1个单词)或所给单词的正确形式。
Katalin Karikó and Drew Weissman, who have been working for decades 56 (find) ways to use genetic (基
因的) material called messenger RNA, or mRNA, to make medicines, have won the 2023 Nobel Prize. They have
discovered that changing a chemical building block of mRNA can keep the immune system (免疫系统) 57
destroying the material and have enabled it to attack viruses instead.
They published their work in 2005 and their discovery 58 (fundamental) changed our understanding of how
mRNA interacts with our immune system. In 59 (add), the work sped up vaccine development during one of the
greatest threats to human health in modern times.
60 (speak) to reporters at Pennsylvania University on Monday, Weissman said they had to overcome many
difficulties. “But Karikó lit the match 61 then we spent more than 20 years figuring out how to get it to work,”
Weissman said.
Karikó had to overcome even bigger 62 (challenge). She 63 (force) to resign from Pennsylvania
University and went from one low-paying research job to another and even slept in her office at times. But she never gave
up.
The first prize in the category was awarded in 1901. Of the 227 people 64 work has been recognized with
the prize, Karikó is the 65 (thirteen) woman among them.
【答案】56.to find 57.from 58.fundamentally 59.addition 60.Speaking 61.and 62.challenges
63.was forced 64.whose 65.thirteenth
【解析】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了2023年诺贝尔奖获得者Katalin Karikó和Drew Weissman及其研究成果。
56.考查非谓语动词。句意:Katalin Karikó和Drew Weissman几十年来一直致力于寻找利用信使RNA (或称
mRNA)的遗传物质制造药物的方法,他们获得了2023年诺贝尔奖。分析该句成分可知,此处表示目的,应用所
给动词的不定式,作目的状语。故填to find。
57.考查介词。句意:他们发现,改变mRNA的一种化学成分可以阻止免疫系统破坏这种物质,从而使其能够攻
击病毒。keep... from doing sth意为“阻止……做某事”,为固定搭配。故填from。
58.考查副词。句意:他们在2005年发表了他们的研究成果,他们的发现从根本上改变了我们对mRNA如何与免
疫系统相互作用的理解。分析该句成分可知,所填词在此处修饰动词changed,作状语,故用所给形容词的副词形
式fundamentally。故填fundamentally。
59.考查名词。句意:此外,在现代人类健康面临的最大威胁之一期间,这项工作加速了疫苗的开发。根据该空
前的介词In可知,所填词为名词构成固定短语in addition“此外”。故填addition。
60.考查非谓语动词。句意:Weissman星期一在宾夕法尼亚大学对记者说,他们必须克服许多困难。根据句意
“Weissman在会见记者时说……”可知,动词speak和逻辑主语Weissman之间是主谓关系,应用现在分词作状语,
表示伴随动作。首字母应大写,故填Speaking。
61.考查连词。句意:“但是Karikó点燃了火柴,然后我们花了20多年的时间来弄清楚如何让它工作,”
Weissman说。根据句意可知,此处表示并列关系,故用并列连词and。故填and。
62.考查名词复数。句意:Karikó必须克服更大的挑战。challenge为可数名词,根据下文提到的各种困难可知,
此处用所给名词的复数形式。故填challenges。
63.考查动词的时态、语态和主谓一致。句意:她被迫从宾夕法尼亚大学辞职,从一份低薪的研究工作换到另一
份,有时甚至睡在办公室里。根据空后的并列谓语可知,此处用一般过去时,又因为force与she之间存在被动关
系,故用一般过去时的被动语态,主语表示单数意义。故填was forced。
64.考查定语从句。句意:在227位获奖者中,Karikó是第13位女性。分析句子结构可知,该空在此处引导限制
性定语从句,先行词是people,从句中缺少定语,且work与people构成所属关系,故此处用whose来引导。故填
whose。
65.考查序数词。句意同上。根据句意“Karikó是第十三位获此殊荣的女性”可知,这里用序数词thirteenth。故
填thirteenth。

Being an Honest Student
As far as we know, honesty is one of the virtues of the Chinese nation, which is playing a vital role in our life. Without
honesty, it is impossible to get trust and recognition of others, let alone achieving anything.
We can do something to be an honest student. To begin with, it’s of great significance to be honest with our teachers. If
meeting with difficulties in study, we’re supposed to ask them for help. Secondly, we should strictly observe the
examination regulations. Only by showing our real grades can we know the direction of our next effort. Last but not least,
we should always keep our promises to anyone else. It’s the basis for building harmonious relationship with others.

第二节(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。
When our youngest sister was born, my little brother Tom was six and I was eight. I had always been the “Big Sister”
and he had always been “The Baby”.
Our sister’s arrival was a complete surprise to both of us. In those days no one worried much about sibling rivalry (兄
弟姐妹间的较劲), and no “experts” told us how to deal with another child in the house. We had wise and loving grandpa
and mom, however.
I was excited about the baby and loved to hold her and help care for her. Tom’s feelings were quite different! He just
looked at her and left, preferring to spend the evening in his room. When I went to his room to talk to him and try to get him
to play games with me, he just looked away. “Why did they have to get that baby?” Tom asked.
Later that night, Grandpa came over to see the new baby. As he held her, he said to Tom, “You know, she’s a lot like
the baby lamb I’m raising on the bottle. I have to take care of her and feed her often, just the way your mom does with the
baby.” Tom said, “I’d rather have the lamb.”
Grandpa heard and said, “Well, if you’d rather have a lamb, maybe we could trade your little sister for it. I’ll give you a
day to think it over, and if you still want to trade tomorrow, we’ll do it.” I thought I saw him wink at Mom, but I knew Imust have been mistaken because Grandpa never winked at anyone.
After Grandpa left, Mom read to Tom for a long while. Tom kept looking at the baby, and Mom asked him to hold our
little sister while she went to the bathroom. When Mom came back. Tom was gently touching the baby’s smooth black hair,
and as he held her hand, she took hold of his finger.

【参考范文】
“Mom, look! She’s holding my hand!” Tom smiled. “Sure, she knows you’re her brother,” Mom smiled. He held the
baby for more minutes, and seemed much happier at bedtime. The next day, Tom and I spent much of the day watching the
baby bathe, watching her sleep and holding her. That evening, when Grandpa came back and asked Tom whether he was
ready to trade, Tom looked surprised that Grandpa had remembered the bargain. He began to worry that Grandpa would
take our sister away.
She’s a day older now. I think she’s worth five lambs now, “Tom said. Grandpa looked shocked, and said he had to
think it over, Anxious, Tom went to Mom’s room and held the baby for long. The next day, Grandpa visited us and told Tom
he was preparing five lambs. Tom took a deep breath and said, “The baby is worth fifty lambs now!” Annoyed, Grandpa
answered, “I can’t afford fifty lambs. I guess you’ll have to keep her and help your parents look after her.” Tom smiled, and
this time I really did see Grandpa wink at Mom.
