Section B 10%
Directions: After reading the passage below, fill in the blanks to make the passage coherent and grammatically correct.
For the blanks with a given word, fill in each blank with the proper form of the given word; for the other blanks, use
one word that best fits each blank.
Are You Using Literally Incorrectly?
What is an example of the word literally as it was first used?
That’s easy. Any situation ____21____ you are stating exactly what is happening or what is true can use
literally with its original meaning. If walking from your home to your workplace takes you five minutes,
____22____ (allow) you a wonderfully short commute, you can say, “My office is literally a five-minute walk from
____23____ I live.” If you’ve discovered an ice cream that bests all others you’ve tried, you can say, “This is
literally the best ice cream I’ve ever had.”
Both these uses illustrate the original answer to the question “What does literally mean?” This, at least, is
straightforward. And that’s a relief, ____24____ (give) how puzzling some other aspects of English can be—such
as these common pairs of words everyone confuses.
Can literally ever mean figuratively (比喻地)?
These days, literally can actually have a meaning close to “figuratively.” Dictionaries ____25____ Merriam-
Webster, Cambridge and the Oxford English Dictionary include this definition, and the word is sometimes used this
way in ____26____ (informal) speech and writing.
This meaning of literally could be described as “not really, but it feels that way.” Someone who’s exhausted
but, for now, still awake ____27____ tell you, “I’m literally asleep in my chair.” With this definition, literally joins
the collection of words that mean their opposite.
____28____ what you may think, this isn’t an extreme modem use of literally. Classic authors such as Mark
Twain, Charlotte Bronte and James Joyce have used the term figuratively. And linguists trace this use back to the
18th century.
But this use seems ____29____ (gain) popularity in spoken English in the past few decades—and ____30____
it turns out, not everyone is happy about it.
Section C 10%
Directions: Complete the following passage by using the words in the box. Each word can only be used once. Note
that there is one word more than you need.
A. potential B. effectiveness C. temperature D. struggle E. fit F. normally

G. constantly H. neutralizer I. store J. smelly K. date
Does baking soda in the refrigerator really work?
Yes, it does. And it’s also really simple to use. You don’t need to mix up any funny mixtures or combine it
with any other eco-friendly cleaning products. You simply____31____ an open box of baking soda in the fridge
and replace it about every three months or so. If you find it’s losing its____32____ more quickly, you may need to
replace it more often, perhaps once per month.
A simple trick to remember when to replace the baking soda in your fridge is to____33____ the box when you
put it in there. If you’re old school, you can just use your nose and swap out the baking soda when your fridge
begins to stink (发臭).
Also note that while baking soda is a very effective smell____34____ in your fridge, it won’t thoroughly
eliminate every single smell in there. If you’ve stored open bowls of raw fish or pickled onions in there all week,
even the biggest box of baking soda will ____35____ to absorb the smells.
Whether you’re flush with fridge-organization ideas or prefer to throw things anywhere they’ll ____36____,
be sure to make room for baking soda. A box of baking soda in the fridge will have a positive effect regardless of
where you put it, but to maximize its smell-absorbing____37____, it’s best to store it closest to fetid (臭的)foods.
If your fridge is large or if you tend to keep a lot of____38____ foods in there, you may want to keep a box(or
bowl)of baking soda on each shelf in the fridge. If you find yourself____39____ replacing the baking soda in your
fridge and throwing out spoiled food on a regular basis, you may also want to check what ____40____ a
refrigerator should be. If your foods aren’t staying fresh for long, the fridge may not be keeping them cold enough.
III. Reading Comprehension: 30%
Section A 15%
Directions: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A,
B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.
What can you make with a 3D printer?
Theoretically speaking, you can make anything with a 3D printer, though its main uses are in industries like
manufacturing, prototyping, construction and medicine. However, now hobbyists can create the ____41____ items
at home, and many are even selling their wares online as a part time job.
3D printers were also a critical tool ____42____ of the COVID-19 pandemic, when PPE was in short supply.
Hospitals____43____ on 3D printers to supply their staff with gowns, masks and respirators, as well as to create
parts for ventilators. One Seattle high school student even____44____ a mask factory from his home using a 3D

printer.
Now, with scientists able to create prosthetics (假肢) and implants via 3D printing, the____45____ in
medicine are arguably among some of the most exciting. They can also create____46____ body parts like ears from
stem cells, collagen and structural proteins in the human body called fibrin; this process is known as bioprinting,
though much of it is still in the testing phases. ____47____, researchers can test pharmaceuticals easily and
ethically with tissue created from 3D printers.
In the future, designers and hobbyists may not be asking the question “How do 3D printers work?” because 3D
printers will likely be so ____48____ in our daily lives. Today, kids are being taught about 3D printing in
elementary school, and many local libraries currently have the machines available, as do stores like UPS and
Staples.
Honestly, the possibilities are____49____ in the aerospace, electronic, medical, energy and automotive
industries, where 3D printers will become even more vital tools. While this can be handy when it comes to cars,
which can be customized for buyers, it is even more essential in the _____50_____ field. Although we’re still
probably 10 to 15 years away from 3D printed organs like kidneys, this scientific advancement is most definitely
_____51_____.
And _____52_____ the opportunities in space, where the defense and aerospace 3D printing market is
expected to reach $ 5. 58 billion by 2026. In the future, 3D printing could transform space exploration and space
tourism by allowing astronauts to create objects_____53_____while in space. Imagine a future in which buildings
and food are created in space!
When will you be able to print nearly anything at home? We’re getting there. “We are at the _____54_____ of
a manufacturing age,” Bourell says, “which I believe may have an impact_____55_____ that of the Information

Directions: Read the following four passages. Each passage is followed by several questions. For
each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according
to the information given in the passage you have just read.
(A)
It’s tipping towards sunset on a November afternoon and St Michael’s Mount shines on the horizon reflected
in the high tide that surrounds this Comish island. As I set out along the coastal path from Penzance to Marazion
,
it’s a surreal view. The mount, with its collar of gold-dotted water, looks like it’s floating. The podcast I’m
listening to is telling me that the mount is also surrounded by a underwater forest. This blue space was once green.
I start from behind Penzance’s railway station and the first installation is revealed just after the signal box-a
trident of posts that look like sticks made by Poseidon (三叉戟) himself. Rooted in the landscape but separate from
it, like other good sculpture trails, this one offers a deeper link to the landscape, a perspective that a walk alone
can’t offer.
The accompanying podcast encourages listeners to follow in the footsteps of local poets, scientists and
folklore experts, while a downloadable booklet suggests ways of drawing, cooking, and food hunting inspired by
the forest. Until they appear on additional signs along the trail in the spring, both can be found on Newlyn Art
Gallery’s website.
As I follow the trail I listen my way around the landscape hearing about its marine biodiversity, rising sea
levels (again), Cornish language and pirating history.
The sticks range from driftwood benches to short posts and tall crooks. Some have metal chairs and picnic
benches. Newly upgraded, the path is accessible to all. In the dusk, I’m joined on my walk by a tide of pushchairs,
e-bikes, wheelchair users, runners, iovers and dog walkers.
I keep going and bob along the path ahead, and the industrial estates on my left give way to the Scots pines
and rushes of the Marazion Marsh RSPB (Royal Society for the Protection of Birds) reserve. Eventually I dip down

jiajiao6767 )
into Marazion along the beach, breathing the briny air swirling in over sea wrack (海藻).
As the tide is already in, it’s too late to visit St Michael’s Mount today, so I double back for a cuppa at the
Hoxton Special, a cafe 10 minutes back along the path. Just beside it is the final cluster of posts. One of them is
shaped like a chair, so I sink into it and watch the sun set over the bay.
56. What does the underlined word mean in Paragraph One mean?
A. realistic B. false C. dreamlike D. imaginative
57. Which of the following statement is True about the trident post mentioned in paragraph 2?
A. It was the first thing the author encountered after he set out on his journey.
B. It once belonged to the mythical character Poseidon, dominator of the sea.
C. It can hardly be spotted by visitors if they choose to walk along the trail.
D. It adds to the local landscape though not necessarily a part of it.
58. What is the author’s journey like?
A. His journey progressed under the witness of the posts along the trail.
B. The author listened to podcast all the way on his journey and took the advice it offered.
C. Throughout his journey, the author was joined by various kinds of people and beautiful scenes.
D. The whole journey was naturally picturesque without traces of industry.
59. What can be the best title of this passage?
A. Journey of Wilderness B. Magnificent Trails C. Arty Walk D. Coastal Road Trips
(B)
Now that you know the answer to the question “What is artificial intelligence?” you might be wondering
where it is. The fact of the matter is that AI is everywhere in our world. Here are just a few common ways you
interact with it on a daily basis without even realizing it.
Gaming
One of the most famous examples of early AI was the chess computer we noted earlier, Deep Blue. In 1997,
the computer was able to think much like a human chess player and beat chess grand master Garry Kasparov. This
artificial intelligence technology has since progressed to what we now see in Xboxes, PlayStations and computer
games. When you’re playing against an opponent in a game, AI is running that character to anticipate your moves
and react. If you’re a gamer, you’ll definitely be interested in the difference between AR and VR—and how AI
relates to both.
Cars
Another example of artificial intelligence is collision correction in cars and self-driving vehicles. The AI
第 9 页 共 16 页上海最大家教平台---嘉惠家教 2万余上海老师任您选（在职老师、机构老师、985学霸大学生应有尽有 ，+V:
jiajiao6767 )
anticipates what other drivers will do and reacts to avoid collisions using sensors and cameras as the computer’s
eyes. While current self-driving cars still need humans at the ready in case of trouble, in the future you may be able
to sleep while your vehicle gets you from point A to point B. Fully autonomous cars have already been created, but
they are not currently available for purchase due to the need for further testing.
Health care
Currently, doctors are using artificial intelligence in health care to detect tumors at a better success rate than
human radiologists, according to a paper published by the Royal College of Physicians in 2019. Robots are also
being used to assist doctors in performing surgeries. For example, AI can warn a surgeon that they are about to
puncture an artery accidentally, as well as perform minimally invasive surgery and subsequently prevent hand
tremors by doctors.
Plus, robots come in handy when organizing clinical trials. AI can pick out possible candidates much more
quickly than humans by scanning applications for the right ages, sex, symptoms and more. They can also input and
organize data about the candidates, trial results and other information quickly.
60 What do we know about Deep Blue?
.
A. It is the first AI chess game computer ever created by human.
B. It defeated a grand chess master because it could think like a human.
C. If you play against Deep Blue, you will be interested in it.
D. Deep Blue is able to guess its opponents’ next moves and take actions against them.
61. What does the underlined words mean?
A. come into force B. are of help C. are readily available D. come into being
62. Which of the following statement is true according to the passage?
A. As long as the test is done, self-driving cars will be available for sale.
B. AI is highly accurate in tumor detection in health care industry.
C. AI can function as good assistants for doctors in multiple aspects.
D. AI can help correct the errors made by doctors when performing surgeries.
(C)
More and more, movies are either partly or entirely digital constructions that are created with computers.
Right before our eyes, motion pictures are undergoing a revolution that may have more far-reaching, fundamental
impact than the introduction of sound, color or television. Whether these changes are hardly visible or
overwhelmingly obvious, digital technology is transforming how we look at movies and what movies look like,
第 10 页 共 16 页上海最大家教平台---嘉惠家教 2万余上海老师任您选（在职老师、机构老师、985学霸大学生应有尽有 ，+V:
jiajiao6767 )
from modestly budgeted movies shot with digital cameras to blockbusters loaded with computer-generated
imagery.
Predigital artifacts-typewriters and record players, maybe also books and newspaper — are often beautiful, but
their charm will not save them from being eliminated. And the new techniques have their own appeal, to artists as
well as consumers. Leading manufacturers are pushing out the production of 35-millimeter cameras. Within the
next few years digital projection will not only be dominant at the major cinemas, but at art houses too
But film isn’t dead yet, despite the rush to bury it, particularly by the big studios. Film does not have to
disappear. Film isn’t broken — it works wonderfully well and has done so for a century. There is nothing inevitable
or natural about the end of film, no matter how seductive (诱人的) the digital technologies and. gadgets that are
transforming cinema. A 16-millimeter film camera is plenty cool. A 35-millimeter film image can look amazing.
On the other hand, we’re seeing too many movies that look thin, smeared (图像模糊), or too sharply outlined and
don’t have the luxurious density of film and often the color.
The end of film isn’t technologically inevitable; it’s also about economics. In 2002 seven major studios
formed the Digital Cinema Initiative, the purpose of which was “to establish and document voluntary specifications
for an open architecture for digital cinema that ensures a uniform and high level of technical performance,
reliability and quality control.”
What these initiatives effectively did was outline the technological parameters (参数) that everyone who
wants to do business with the studios — from software developers to hardware manufacturers — must follow. As
the theorist David Bordwell writes, “Theaters’ shift from 35-millimeter film to digital presentation was designed by
and for an industry that deals in mass output, saturation releases and quick turnover.”
63. The movie industry is now experiencing a bigger revolution than ________.
A. the transmission of sound signal through telephone
B. the birth of color film in the history of film-making
C. the broadcasting of news report on the television
D. the invention of computer and its application
64. Unlike record players, books, etc., film ________.
A. is more attractive to consumers and artists
B. is more readily accessible in public places
C. looks more amazing when it is created digitally
D. has not become eliminated owing to its unique appeal
65. Film has all the advantages over tech-support movies except ________.

What the Next Era of Globalization Will Look Like
Editor: You talk in the book about how fragile many global supply chains have become. Why would a less
globalized, more localized supply chain tend to be more resilient?
Rana: Well, for starters, you have proximity (亲近).____67____. We had these “just-in-time”, “efficient”
supply chains that were built, taking products around the world. It saves big companies a lot of money as long as
nothing is going wrong in the world. But when anything goes wrong, be it a tsunami, be it a geopolitical event, be it
a war, a trade war, a cold war, a hot war, you get problems. ____68____
Also, I would say when I think of resiliency, I think of sustainability. And well before the pandemic or the war
in Ukraine, companies were actually already starting to think about localization for all kinds of reasons.
____69____. The wage productivity arbitrage(工资套利)was losing its appeal. Wages were rising enough in the
east so that the arbitrage didn’t make as much sense as it used to.
Finally, you are starting to have environmental concerns where companies are being asked to consider, “Okay,
how many units of carbon are you expending to tote X product to Y location?” All of this was sort of pushing that
notion of localization for resiliency.
Editor: ____70____. Why not use antitrust(反垄断)to encourage more competition-but keep supply chains
globalized?
Rana: I don’t see them as an either-or proposition; I see them as ideas that work hand in hand. Let me give
you an example: Right after the pandemic hits, everybody goes into lockdown, suddenly nobody’s eating out.
Restaurants are closed; grocery stores have huge lines in front of them. And yet there are no products on the
shelves. You can’t find tomato sauce, you can’t find juice. There are all these strange gaps that start to appear. And
you might say, “Well, why is that?”

A. Whereas when you have more localized systems, you just don’t have those sorts of problems of hauling things
halfway around the world.
B. In markets where you did have more localized agriculture or greater use of community farm programs or farmers
markets, you didn’t have that problem.
C. You write that monopoly (垄断)is a source of weakness, because it means companies and consumers rely on a
single source.

Meet the Woman Who Gives Rescued Farm Animals a Second Chance at Life
Shortly after doctors diagnosed ten-year-old Jenny Brown with bone cancer, they had to cut off her right leg
below the knee to save her life. Facing a year of chemotherapy (化疗) after the surgery, Jenny begged her mother
for a kitten. The orange calico Jenny named Boogie rarely left her side, licking tears from her cheeks after hospital
visits and curling up in her lap as she adjusted to life with a prosthetic (假肢的) leg.
“My relationship with Boogie showed me that animals think, feel, and suffer as much as we do,” says Jenny,
now 44.
In 1994, Jenny graduated from Columbia College Chicago and began a career in television and documentary
production. On the side, she volunteered as a videographer for animal rights groups, and in 2002, she shot
undercover footage of horrible animal mistreatment at several Texas farm animal stockyards. “After seeing that, I
knew I needed to help animals,” says Jenny.
A year later, she gave up her film career and with her fiancé, Doug Abel, a film editor, opened the Woodstock
Farm Sanctuary, a nonprofit organization dedicated to rescuing and recovering farm animals, on a 22-acre property
they bought in the rolling hills of Woodstock, New York, the next year.
In August 2007, she received a call from Animal Care and Control of NYC about a small goat it had found
hopping around Prospect Park. Jenny guessed it had run away from one of the city’s murder-houses. The goat’s

legs were severely injured, probably from being bound together with wire, and its mouth was covered in aching.
Jenny and her team brought the goat, which they named Albie, to the preserve, but they soon realized that
Albie’s left front leg was injured beyond repair. After a veterinarian(兽医) cut off the leg. Jenny asked Erik
Tomkins, the doctor who makes Jenny’s prostheses, to fashion a leg for Albie. To date, seven of the preserve’s
animals have received prosthetic limbs or braces. “On most farms, animals with these illnesses would be
immediately killed,” says Jenny.
