(2024·湖南怀化·一模)Due to the fact that the average life expectancy in Ghana is 64 years old, and the
most common causes of death are largely treatable conditions, such as malaria, stroke, and respiratory infections.
Boateng, growing up in a small village in southern Ghana/struggling to access basic health care, felt an urgent call
to help and decided he would make it his life’s mission to bring health care to remote communities in Ghana.
Boateng worked hard in school, getting a scholarship to study biology at Cornell University in the US, and
ultimately earned his master’s in Healthcare Administration. Later he started his nonprofit, OKB Hope Foundation,
and converted a van into a mobile doctor’s office called the Hope Health Van to bring health care directly to those
in need in 2021.
A few times a week, the mobile clinic and medical team travel long distances to remote communities in
Ghana and provide free routine medical care. On each trip, Boateng’s team consists of a nurse, a physician’s
assistant, a doctor, and an operation assistant. In the van, they can run basic labs like bloodwork and urinalysis as
well as prescribe and provide medications. “It’s like a one-stop shop for people,” said Boateng, adding that most of
the people they see have one health issue or another.
Since its launch, Boateng says the Hope Health Van has served more than 4, 000 Ghanaians across more than
45 rural communities who otherwise don’t have easily accessible medical care. To supplement the mobile clinic,
Boateng’s organization has also trained 20 volunteers to serve as local health advocates. They check people’s vitals
and provide the medical team with timely data for assessing how to move forward with care and treatment,
especially for those whose health is at risk.
In the future, Boateng hopes to expand to provide more consistent and high-quality medical care not only to
those living in remote areas of Ghana but in other countries as well. “I believe that our model can be replicated in
sub-Saharan Africa,” he said.
4.What inspired Boateng to set his life goal?
A.He wanted to get a scholarship.
B.Many locals died of deadly diseases.
C.The birthplace of him was small and poor.
D.Basic health care was inaccessible for locals.5.What is paragraph 3 mainly about?
A.How Boateng’s team functions. B.Why Boateng’s team was founded.
C.What Boateng’s team has achieved. D.Where Boateng’s team has travelled.
6.What is Boateng’s attitude to his team in the future?
A.Ambiguous. B.Ambitious. C.Indifferent. D.Doubtful.
7.What is the best title for the text?
A.A van bringing medical care to thousands
B.A country lacking basic health care
C.Efforts to provide people with medications
D.Mobile vans travelling through Ghana

(2024·江苏南通·三模)In a recent study of healthy volunteers, National Institutes of Health researchers
discovered that our brains may replay memories of learning new skills when we rest.
NIH researchers have mapped out the brain activity that flows when we learn a new skill, such as playing a
new song on the piano, and found that during short rest the volunteers’ brains rapidly and repeatedly replayed faster
versions of the activity seen while they practiced typing a code. The more a volunteer replayed the activity the
better they performed during subsequent practice sessions.
The study was conducted at the NIH Clinical Center. The team of Dr. Cohen, M.D., senior investigator at
the NIH’s National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS), used a highly sensitive scanning
technique to record the brain waves of 33 healthy, right-handed volunteers as they learned to type a five-digit test
code with their left hands. The subjects sat in a chair and under the scanner’s long, cone-shaped cap. An experiment
began when a subject was shown the code “41234” on a screen and asked to type it out as many times as possible
for 10 seconds and then take a 10 second break. Subjects were asked to repeat this cycle of alternating (交替的)
practice and rest sessions a total of 35 times.
During the first few trials, the speed at which subjects correctly typed the code improved dramatically and
then leveled off around the 11th cycle. In a previous study, Dr. Cohen’s team showed that most of these gains
happened during short rests, and not when the subjects were typing. Moreover, the gains were greater than those
made after a night’s sleep and were related with a decrease in the size of brain waves, called beta rhythms. In this
new report, the researchers searched for something different in the subjects’ brain waves.
“We wanted to explore the mechanisms (机制) behind memory strengthening seen during wakeful rest.Several forms of memory appear to rely on the replaying of neural (神经的) activity, so we decided to test this idea
out for procedural skill learning,” said Ethan R. Buch, Ph.D., a staff scientist on Dr. Cohen’s team and leader of
the study. To do this, Dr. Buch developed a computer program which allowed the team to understand the brain
wave activity associated with typing each number in the test code.
Interestingly, they found that the more a volunteer replayed, the better their performance was. “We were a bit
surprised by these last results. Overall, our results support the idea that the replay activity during waking rest may
be a powerful tool that researchers can use to help individuals learn new skills faster and possibly facilitate
recovery from stroke.” said Dr. Cohen.
8.What have NIH researchers recently found?
A.The brain activity slowly flows when we learn a new skill.
B.The value of short practice sessions can’t be overestimated.
C.Short rest makes no difference to the neural replay of the activity.
D.The frequency of brain replay contributes to practice performances.
9.What is mainly talked about in Paragraph 3?
A.The process of the research.
B.The facilities of the research.
C.The application of the research.
D.The preparations of the research.
10.Why did Dr. Buch develop a computer program?
A.To distinguish the first 11 cycles from the later ones.
B.To confirm the role of neural replay in skill learning.
C.To explore the potential effects of procedural learning.
D.To find out the reasons for the changes in brain waves.
11.What does Dr. Cohen think of the research findings?
A.Acceptable.
B.Promising.
C.Shallow.
D.Dismissive.

(23-24 高三下·河南焦作·阶段练习)Carl Wieman, a Nobel Prize-winning physicist at Standford
University, excelled in the lab, where he created the Bose-Einstein condensate (玻色—爱因斯坦凝聚态).However, his mastery in the lab did not extend to the classroom. For years, he wrestled with what seemed to be a
straightforward task: making undergraduates comprehend physics as he did. Laying it out for them — explaining,
even demonstrating the core concepts of the discipline—was not working. Despite his clear explanations, his
students’ capacity to solve the problems he posed to them remained inadequate.
It was in an unexpected place that he found the key to the problem: not in his classrooms but among the
graduate students(研究生) who came to work in his lab. When his PH.D.candidates entered the lab, Wieman
noticed, their habits of thought were no less narrow and rigid than the undergraduates. Within a year or two,
however, these same graduate students transformed into the flexible thinkers he was trying so earnestly, and
unsuccessfully, to cultivate. “Some kind of intellectual process must have been missing from the traditional
education,” Wieman recounts.
A major factor in the graduate students’ transformation, Wieman concluded, was their experience of intense
social engagement around a body of knowledge — the hours they spent advising, debating with, and recounting
anecdotes to one another. In 2019, a study published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences
backed this idea. Tracking the intellectual advancement of several hundred graduate students in the sciences over
the course of four years, its authors found that the development of crucial skills such as generating hypotheses (假
设), designing experiments, and analyzing data was closely related to the students’ engagement with their peers in
the lab, rather than the guidance they received from their faculty mentors (导师).
Wieman is one of a growing number of Stanford professors who are bringing this “active learning” approach
to their courses. His aspiration is to move science education away from the lecture format, toward a model that is
more active and more engaged.
12.What problem did Carl Wieman have with his undergraduates?
A.Making them excel in the lab. B.Demonstrating lab experiments.
C.Facilitating their all-round development.D.Enhancing their physics problem-solving.
13.Which of the following best describes the graduate students who first joined Wieman’s lab?
A.Limited in thinking. B.Resistant to new ideas.
C.Flexible and earnest. D.Experienced and cooperative.
14.What is crucial for developing students’ intelligent thought according to the 2019 study?
A.Intense lab work. B.Peer pressure and evaluation.
C.Academic interaction with fellows. D.Engagement with external society.
15.Which of the following can be a suitable title for the text?A.Transforming Graduates’ Habits B.Carl Wieman’s Nobel Prize Journey
C.The Nobel-Prize Winner’s Struggles D.Carl Wieman’s Education Innovation

(2024·湖北黄冈·三模)In our modern economy, accelerated learning can be crucial for success. Learning faster
means gaining more knowledge—quicker than others. 16 Anyone can learn from them and accelerate their
learning process with the following techniques. Combine Learning Styles That Play to Your Strengths
When you aim to accelerate your learning, what you choose to learn should not be limited to a curriculum or
classroom structure. 17 Different materials along with your learning style can accelerate or slow down
your comprehension process. The best learning style is the one that makes it easier to process, or comprehend ideas,
and subjects faster. Once you know your learning strengths and weaknesses, you can choose learning strategies that
play to your strengths. Seek First to Understand The Basic Structure of The Topic You Choose
18 So you need to seek first to understand the basics. In other words, you have to get to know the tree’s
root, trunk, then branch out from there. Don’t start from the branches or the leaves, pursue the root and work your
way to the topic. Therefore, whatever topic you choose to learn or study, just start with the basics. Give Yourself
Plenty of Time in Both “Focused” And “Diffused”(分散的)Modes
Normally, the human brain is not meant to stay in “focused” mode for hours at a time. 19
Consequently, when your brain is active for a very long time, you’re actually blocking your access to the diffused
mode — a more relaxed state.
Therefore, diffused mode is just as valuable as the focused mode. So — just take breaks, let your mind
wander, think about other things, and give your brain plenty of time to make better connections. 20
A.You can benefit a lot from staying focused.
B.Smart learners don’t have any special secrets.
C.You should try to choose whatever you like best.
D.Every topic or subject has a logical structure to it.
E.Then you can learn better by imposing breaks on yourself.
F.Long-lasting attention to a single task can block memory and recall.
G.You can practically choose content from many sources, experts, and authors.

After each error correction, she would check again. She took things so 26 that she wouldn’t overlook any
detail. No wonder she was 27 by us.
Mary was 28 and willing to help, within reason, on everything. We could ask her questions at any
time. She encouraged everyone to speak Spanish in class. Because of that, I was 29 enough, and then I
could communicate with Spanish speakers outside of class. When she knew our problems, she would give advice.
When someone was struggling, she would 30 .

Learning Chinese calligraphy 36 (list) as one of the must-do things when I came to China. Now,
I’m in the course of learning this unique art, 37 value is considered very high in China, even across East
Asia today. It is not only 38 ancient artistic form of human language, but it also reflects Chinese
traditions.
As someone who paints, draws, and loves all 39 (create) things, at first, I assumed I would be
rather good at Chinese calligraphy. I was 40 (total ) wrong. Using thick brush tips to produce awkward
brush strokes (笔画) 41 (be) very difficult for a beginner. I have no idea about the different types of
calligraphy and the meanings 42 ( hide) behind each one. Also, I have to hold the paintbrush 43
a very specific way; unlike a pen or pencil, the paintbrush is held upright in the hand. I need to be extra careful
when changing the angle or 44 (direct) of the brush, especially if I press too hard on the paper.
After taking the lesson, I now understand the difficulty of calligraphy and that it will take efforts and
commitment 45 (master) this art form. Yet, I am grateful to learn such a special Chinese tradition.

的短文。
I didn’t like Del so much. He always called me the nickname “Germy”, which meant “dirty”, instead of my
real name “Jamie”. Besides, he was known as a trouble-maker in school. So when the head teacher Mr. Smith asked
Del to come to his office, I naturally thought that Del had done something mean to someone. Through the window,
I caught sight of a smaller boy crying. Del seemed unhappy, too.
He did not return to class that day. All of us were discussing what had happened to him. What else could
such an annoying boy do? “He must have hit the boy and was sent home,” I whispered to my friends. Their eyes
widened. It felt good to see them so interested in what I said.
The next morning, the whole school was talking about Del being expelled(开除) for beating up a kid. I was
surprised that my assumptions were passed on so quickly. So when Del walked into the classroom, all the kids were
shocked. The kids next to him shift ed their desks away. “What’s your problem?” Del asked. “I don’t want you to
attack me,” one kid said. Some laughed. “Yeah, I might,” said Del. I could tell he was joking, but many kids
thought he admitted he did beat up someone.
During recess(课间休息), Del tried to join the kickball game. “Neither team wants you,” one of the players
said. “Why?” Del asked, looking confused. “I always play with you guys.” They ignored him and went on playing.
Del sat by himself while the rest of the school enjoyed their recess away from him. Del looked lonely and sad,
much different from before. I started to feel sorry for him.
Later that day, I learned what really happened. The kid was Del’s little brother and he was crying because
their mother fell ill and was sent to hospital. I felt even sorrier for what I said before. I started a rumor(谣言).
注意:
1.续写词数应为150左右;2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
At recess the next day, I saw Del sitting alone watching the kickball game.
