graying process, ____24____ begins at the root.
A new study from researchers at Columbia University is the first ____25____(offer) quantitative evidence

and each week’s level of stress rated are included.
When hairs were aligned with (与……对照) stress diaries, striking associations between stress and hair
graying ____26____(reveal) and, in some cases, there was a reversal of graying when stress was removed. There
was one individual who went on a long vacation, and five hairs on that person’s head returned back to dark during
the vacation.
Although it may seem easy to understand ____27____ stress can speed up graying, the researchers were
surprised to discover that hair color can be restored when stress is eased. We could picture hair as a powerful tool to
assess the effects of ____28____(early) life events on aging — because hair provides a kind of physical record of
past events, much____29____ the rings of a tree. It’s pretty clear that the hair encodes part of your biological

Online art of all kinds can be accessed by as many people as the hosting server permits. But there is a(n)
___41___ that is allowing people to buy digital art.
Digital art that is sold online is known as an NFT, which ___42___ non-fungible token(非同质化代币). Non-
fungible means that the item cannot be ___43___ by a similar item. For example, coins and bills are fungible
because they have a set value and are easily exchanged. ___44___, trading cards are non-fungible because their
worth varies depending on which card you have. An NFT can be ___45___ anything digital -songs, videos, imagesor even a social media post, one of which sold for almost USS3 million!
Others may be able to see this NFT, or art, but one person is listed as the owner on a blockchain-that is, a
public ___46___. Blockchains are well equipped to keep track of the owner of NFT. In fact, they are used to record
all kinds of online ___47___.

put their money where their mouth is, paying thousands or even millions of dollars for NFTs.
As with fine art collecting, some people see purchasing NFTs as a(n) ___49___, buying art that they plan to
sell at a higher price later. Others want the esteem (成就感) that comes with owning an NFT made by a famous

money for one may seem ___52___.
On the other hand, the popularity of NFTs is ___53___ good news for the artists who create them. Upon
selling their works as NFTs, artists receive much more than the small amounts of money they get when someone
streams their video, for example. Some NFTs are even set up so that every time a work changes hands, the creator
receives a percentage of the price. Thus, the artist can be paid for a single NFT many times over.
___54___, every NFT is unique, though some creators produce multiple very similar NFTs sort of like how

(2023届上海市崇明区高三上学期一模)
Francis Kéré appears on the screen in a loose white Oxford shirt and an enormous, slightly amazed smile.
“Can you imagine?” the newest Pritzker Architecture Prize winner says. “I was born in a little village in Burkina
Faso where there was no school then. And my father wanted me to learn how to read and write very simply because
then I could then translate or read him his letters.”
The first African winner of the Pritzker Architecture Prize had already received numerous awards in his field,
but Kéré was as surprised as anyone else to be selected for the field’s most famous prize. “Francis Kéré is
pioneering architecture — sustainable to the earth and its inhabitants — in lands of extreme scarcity,” said
committee chair, Tom Pritzker, in a statement. “He is equally architect and servant, improving upon the lives and
experiences of countless citizens in a region of the world that is at times forgotten. Through buildings that
demonstrate beauty, modesty, boldness and invention, Kéré gracefully deserves this Prize.”
Kéré says his architectural practice was inspired by his own experience attending school with around 100 otherchildren in a region where temperatures are regularly higher than 100 degrees Fahrenheit. “You will sit and it’s very
hot inside,” he said. “And there was no light, while outside, the sunlight was strong and in my head the idea one
day grew that as an adult, I should make it better. I was thinking about space, about room, about how I can feel
better.”
In his designs for Gando Primary School and Naaba Belem Goumma Secondary School in Burkina Faso, Kéré
drew on traditional building materials and emphasized shade and shadows with well-ventilated (通风良好的)
spaces that reduce the need for air conditioning.
When he was twenty, in 1985, Kéré earned a vocational scholarship to study carpentry in Berlin. But while
absorbed in the practicality of roofing and furniture making, he also attended night school and was admitted to
Technische Universität Berlin, from which he graduated in 2004 with an advanced degree in architecture. He was
still a student when he designed and built Gando Primary School. It turned out to be a springboard for his career
and still guides his ethos (理念) today.
56. Which of the following is a reason for Kéré’s winning the Pritzker Architecture Prize?
A. His designs are innovative and eco-friendly.
B. He’s received plenty of awards in architecture.
C. His designs mainly consist of school buildings.
D. He’s good at using new materials in his architecture.
57. ________ acts as a stimulus to Kéré’s becoming an architect.
A. His study of carpentry in Berlin B. His hometown’s extremely hot whether
C. His parents’ expectations of him D. His uncomfortable experience at school
58. ________ helps Kéré establish his status in architecture.
A. His design of Gando Primary School B. His research in Technische Universität Berlin
C. His love for nature and his hometown D. His commitment to the development of Africa
59. Which of the following is the best title for the passage?
A. Francis Kéré: a True Pioneer in African Architecture
B. Francis Kéré: a Great African Contributor to Architecture
C. Francis Kéré: the First African to Win Architecture’s Top Award
D. Francis Kéré: the First African Winner of Awards in Architecture

(2023届上海市普陀区高三下学期二模)If you really want to see all that Yellowstone Park has to offer, it would take you a lifetime! However, most of
us do not have a lifetime to spend in Yellowstone, but in 2-3 full days, you will be able to hit most of the highlights.
There is no such thing as racing around the park. Yellowstone has 154 miles of a main highway, known as the
Grand Loop Road. The general park speed limit is 45 miles per hour but in normal traffic, you will be lucky to
average 30 miles per hour. Figure at least an hour of driving time for every thirty miles of distance. If you plan to
get off the bus and visit the park, it will take at least 1.2 to 2 hours at almost every stop. In addition, there will be
any mumber of unscheduled stops, such as waiting for wild animals to cross the road
A suggested starting point for your tour of Yellowstone National Park is to enter through the South Gate,
which is approximately sixty-two miles north of Jackson, Wyoming. Everyone comes to Yellowstone to see Old
Faithful.Although,not the largest geyser (间歇泉) to erupt in the Park,it is the most reliable regarding the time of
eruption. The time of the eruption,the length of the eruption and the height of the eruption vary from year to year.
As you enter the Park, ask the Park Information Office if he has information on the expected times for the eruption
of Old Faithful.
As you drive north on the Grand Loop Road, keep an eye out for wildlife. At Grant Village Junction, turn left
(west) and head toward Old Faithful Village. Once at Old Faithful Village, take some time to walk around the
boardwalks and visit some of the many other geysers in the Upper Geyser Basin. Include the 1.4-mile walk to
Morning Glory Pool, one of the most colorful thermal (热能) features in all of Yellowstone.And do not forget to
visit the Old Faithful Inn,which is the single most impressive human structure in Yellowstone.
Continue on north and visit the Lower Geyser Basin. The area is scattered and features regularly erupting
geysers, hot springs, and a fascinating mud pool. After leaving the Lower Geyser Basin, continue north to Norris
Junction and stay to the right to travel to Norris Geyser Basin. One of Yellowstone’s most popular geyser basins,
Norris is home to one of the Park’s most popular geysers and Steamboat. In addition, there are several miles ofboardwalks from which you can explore dozens of multi-colored thermal features.
As for more, go on a Sightseeing Tour of Yellowstone to see it all.

Casting blame is natural: it is tempting to fault someone else for a mistake rather than taking responsibility
yourself. But blame is also harmful. It makes it less likely that people will own up to mistakes, and thus less likely
that organizations can learn from them. Research published in 2015 suggests that firms whose managers pointed to
external factors to explain their failings underperformed companies that blamed themselves.
Blame culture can spread like a virus. Just as children fear mom and dad’s punishment if they admit towrongdoing, in a blaming environment, employees are afraid of criticism and punishment if they acknowledge
making a mistake at work. Blame culture asks, “who dropped the ball?” instead of “where did our systems and
processes fail?” The focus is on the individuals, not the processes. It’s much easier to point fingers at a person or
department instead of doing the harder, but the more beneficial, exercise of fixing the root cause, so the problem
does not happen again.
The No Blame Culture was introduced to make sure errors and deficiencies (缺陷) were highlighted by
employees as early as possible. It originated in organizations where tiny errors can have catastrophic (灾难性的)
consequences. These are known as high reliability organizations (HROs) and include hospitals, submarines and
airlines. Because errors can be so disastrous in these organizations, it’s dangerous to operate in an environment
where employees don’t feel able to report errors that have been made or raise concerns about that deficiencies may
turn into future errors. The No Blame Culture maximizes accountability because all contributions to the event
occurring are identified and reviewed for possible change and improvement.
The National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB), which supervises air traffic across the United States,
makes it clear that its role is not to assign blame or liability but to find out what went wrong and to issue
recommendations to avoid a repeat. The proud record of the airline industry in reducing accidents partly reflects no-
blame processes for investigating crashes and close calls. The motive to learn from errors also exist when the risks
are lower. That is why software engineers and developers routinely investigate what went wrong if a website
crashes or a server goes down.
There is an obvious worry about embracing blamelessness. What if the website keeps crashing and the same
person is at fault? Sometimes, after all, blame is deserved. The idea of the “just culture”, a framework developed in
the 1990s by James Reason, a psychologist, addresses the concern that the incompetent and the malevolent (恶意
的) will be let off the hook. The line that Britain’s aviation regulator draws between honest errors and the other sort
is a good starting-point. It promises a culture in which people “are not punished for actions or decisions taken by
them that are commensurate with their experience and training”. That narrows room for blame but does not remove
it entirely.
63. According to the research published in 2015, companies that ________ had better performance.
A. blamed external factors B. owned up to mistakes
C. conducted investigations D. admitted failures
64. According to the passage, the No Blame Culture ________.
A. encourages the early disclosure of errorsB. only exists in high reliability organizations
C. enables people to shift the blame onto others
D. prevents organizations to learn from errors
65. What is the major concern about embracing blamelessness according to the passage?
A. Innocent people might take the blame by admitting their failure.
B. Being blamed for mistakes can destroy trust in employees.
C. The line between honest errors and the other sort is not clear.
D. People won’t learn their lessons if they aren’t blamed for failures.
66. Which of the following is the best title for the passage?
A. Why We Fail to Learn from Our Own Mistakes
B. How to Avoid Disastrous Errors in Organizations
C. Why We Should Stop the Blame Game at Work
D. How to Deal with Workplace Blame Culture

Recently, there’s been a lot of talk in U.S. about the “data problem.” It ought to give the “datadriven” school
reformers pause to reconsider. Maybe we are just creating a bubble that too will burst if we continue to base our
actions on the belief that only scores on standardized instruments are evidence of success.____67____ Margo, a
famous commenter, states that at least tests are more “reliable” than professional judgment. How can she tell? We
want a nation of citizens who are less ready to think that the “truth” can only be captured in one of four answers—
a, b, c, or d. ____68____ But how can the general trend guarantee the reliability of the score of one particular test-
taker? Some educator dares to replace these tests with professional human judgments, which must still rest on a
numerical rank order based on a, b, c and d. The big problem is that there is often no technical assurance for the
reliability of such exams. No wonder many big-name psychologists avoid them.
All “reliability” tells us is that the student would get a similar score on a similar test if given at another time or
place. But all scores on old or new tests have measurement errors. Like Wall Street’s numbers, we have no
independent basis for relying on these scores. Likewise, validity is in the eye of a certain standard of judgments.
How ridiculous it is to say for sure that these judgments are justified!
When some parents told me that their children seemed to read well, but scored poorly, they often believed theindirect evidence, test score, and not the direct evidence, listening to their children read. Some parents had been
trained to distrust judgment and rely on “real evidence”. My own 8-year-old son also used to “fail” a 3rd grade
reading test even though I “knew” he could read fluently. ____69____
We need schools that “train” our judgment, which help us become adults who are in the habit of bringing
judgment to bear on complex phenomenon. ____70____ It also involves acknowledging that even experts must live
with a substantial degree of uncertainty. Only in this way, can we, to some extent, rely on the results of the school
education in the U.S.
A. Even the technical meaning of “good tests” is open to question.
B. It’s when I became a test doubter.
C. Different groups of people fit different test patterns.
D. On all achievement tests, we’re promised beforehand a population that fits a normal curve (曲线).
E. This includes judging which expertise to “trust” and defending such choices.
F. Time spent on standardized tests is, in many cases, equal to that on study.

Graduates Turn to Teaching
China has witnessed a 66-fold increase in the number of applicants for teaching qualification tests over the
past decade, and experts say the popularity has mainly been driven by more graduates chasing stable jobs.
According to the latest figures from the Ministry of Education, the number of applicants for teaching exams each
year has grown from 172,000 to 11.44 million in the past decade.
Experts said the sharp increase corresponds with the increase in teachers’ salaries and status within society,
and it is expected to bring about an overall improvement in quality teaching. However, another big reason for the
enthusiasm for teaching posts is that the challenging and complicated employment situation is driving graduates
toward stable jobs such as working as teachers and government officials.
Chu Zhaohui, a senior researcher at the National Institute of Education Sciences, said the popularity of
teaching posts is closely associated with people’s changing perception of the economic situation, job stability and
security, which are major concerns for graduates.
In view of the coronavirus epidemic in recent years, many college graduates just want a stable job, so teachingsuddenly becomes a very popular profession, and many students from well-known universities have joined the
competition. Of course, everyone has their own ideas. Take Wang Lin for example. Wang Lin, who graduated from
a famous university, said she had wanted to be a history teacher since middle school, inspired by her own history
teacher. She added she had a good impression of her teachers from an early age and was grateful to those who had
taught her. In fact, there are many such cases.
While passing the teaching qualification test is the first step to becoming a teacher in China, landing a post at
schools in big cities can be very competitive.
