选项。
Parker Stewart, a sixteen-year-old student, knew last year that he wanted his independent study on the
environment to have a broad impact on the community.
In order to “reduce the carbon footprint” Stewart planned to produce enough solar energy to 16 his
school’s science labs. Now his plan is 17 to happen. The installation of 30 solar panels is 18 for
late November.
As he began his research on solar 19 , he discovered a useful phone app. By entering an address, he
could 20 how much sunlight the 21 receives each day.
22 how much sunlight it receives, Stewart found that his school building was the 23
location.
Suggested by his science teacher, Debbie Wheeler, Parker first 24 an energy audit (测算) of the
science lab to see how much energy a 25 lab uses per day.
Then, he started his research and 26 the head of his school to fund him. Now the project has grown
to 27 a total of 30 panels. They are 28 to generate enough energy to run all four of the science
labs on 29 .
“It feels surreal (犹如梦幻的) to think that an idea I had stemming from my AP Environmental class would
have this kind of 30 ,” said Stewart, expressing 31 for Wheeler’s help. Wheeler said the success
of the project was 32 Parker’s efforts and willingness to follow through on the 33 from start to
finish.
“I’ve had other students talk about environmental initiatives on campus, but Parker had the 34 and
tenacity to make it happen,” she said.
Parker said he would ultimately like to study 35 engineering at Stanford University in California.

It was a terribly rainy wet winter day. While I was walking from the library after getting my university
applications (申请) for next year at the end of my lunch break, a man was walking towards me with two huge boxes
of brochures.
I thought, “What on earth is that man trying to do? Carry all those things?” Then all of a sudden he dropped
them all! It was a terrible mess with hundreds of brochures all over the path in front of me! “Oh, no,” I thought. The
man sat down and started trying to pick all of the brochures up. I couldn’t believe how many people walked on by
without even caring at all.
I thought, “I’m not going to be one of those people who don’t care about this man, I’m going to help him.”
So, even though it was the end of my lunch break from work and I would be late if I stopped to help him, I didn’t
mind. If I explained what happened, I was sure my boss wouldn’t mind too much. So, I helped him pick them all up.
Then I asked if he would like a hand in carrying a box to where he went. He said yes gratefully.
I carried one of the heavy boxes. The box I had to carry was very heavy-as I’m quite a petite (娇小的) girl-but
I didn’t complain. I just helped him with a big smile across my face. We got there and he thanked me very much for
helping him out. He also gave me one of these lovely brochures about all the walks in and around the Bay of Plenty.
What is a better way to spend my lunchtime than helping someone? Luckily, I wasn’t that late back to work,
so nobody minded at all!

Hundreds of people die at sea every year due to ship and airplane accidents. Emergency teams have little time
to rescue those in the water because the probability of finding a person alive falls dramatically after six hours.
Beyond tides and challenging weather conditions, unsteady coastal currents often make search and rescue operations
extremely difficult.
New insight into coastal flows gained by an international research team led by Geroge Haller, Professor of
Nonlinear Dynamics at ETH Zurich, promises to enhance the search and rescue techniques currently in use. Using
tools from dynamical systems theory and ocean data, the team has developed an algorithm to predict where objects
and people floating in water will go. “Our work has a clear potential to save lives,” says Mattia Serra, the first author
of a study recently published in Nature Communications.
In today’s rescue operation at sea, complicated models of ocean dynamics and weather forecasting are used to
predict the path of floating objects. For fast-changing coastal waters, however, such predictions are often inaccurate
due to uncertain boundaries and missing data. As a result, a search may be launched in the wrong location, causing a
loss of precious time.
Haller’s research team obtained mathematical results predicting that objects floating on the ocean’s surface
should gather along a few special curves (曲线) which they call Transient Attracting Profiles (TRAPs). These curves
can’t be seen with our eyes but can be tracked from instant ocean surface current data using recent mathematical
methods developed by the ETH team. This enables quick and precise planning of search paths that are less sensitive
to uncertainties in the time and place of the accident.
In cooperation with a team from MIT, the ETH team tested their new, TRAP-based search algorithm in two
separate ocean experiments near Martha’s Vineyard, which is on the northeastern coast of the United States. Working
from the same real-time data available to the Coast Guard, the team successfully identified TRAPs in the region in
real-time. They found that buoys and manikins (浮标和人体模型) thrown in the water indeed quickly gathered
along these emerging curves. “Of several competing approaches tested in the project, this was the only algorithm
that consistently found the right location,” says Haller.
“Our results are rapidly obtained, easy to interpret, and cheap to perform,” points out Serra. Haller stresses:
“Our hope is that this method will become a standard part of the tool kit of coast guards everywhere.”
46.In a search and rescue operation, ________.
A.the survival rate drops to almost zero after six hours
B.the use of dynamics leads to the wrong location
C.weather conditions are a determining factor
D.changing currents present a challenge
47.The main significance of the new algorithm is ________.
A.accurately predicting weather conditions during rescue operations
B.dependence on satellite technology to locate distressed individuals at sea
C.cost-effective, efficient tracking of objects and individuals in coastal waters
D.predicting the exact time and location of ocean accidents
48.What is the meaning of the underlined word in paragraph 2?
A.a mathematical way of operating data
B.a principle in science and technology
C.a software to locate anything floated
D.an approach to rescue lives
49.Paragraph 5 mainly talks about ________.
A.the collection of data
B.the testing of the algorithm
C.the identification of the TRAPs
D.the cooperation of two research teams
50.Which of the following is the best title for the passage?
A.How Mathematics Can Save Lives at Sea
B.How Coastal Waters Affect Saving Lives
C.Why Algorithms Are Popular in Rescue Operations
D.Why Success Rates of Rescue Operations Have Fallen
D
Who doesn’t stand in awe of the advances that science and its STEM siblings (technology, engineering, and
math) have created to better our world? But since the time of Aristotle, it has also been recognized that the hard
sciences and the humanities must walk side by side in determining human action.
The ancient Greek philosopher praised “practical wisdom” as the “middle ground” between scientific
knowledge and what he referred to as the “cunning ( 狡诈的) intelligence of politicians, military generals and
business leaders”. In his Nicomachean Ethics (伦理学), he rejected the idea that scientific knowledge alone could
determine the affairs of the human social world, which he recognized as too complex and unpredictable to govern
with certainty.
Likewise, he saw that cunning was insufficient to shape a society filled with the “good life.” Aristotle insisted
that practical wisdom was required for the advancement of the human race as it would take into account what he
called “the common good,” doing what is right for the majority of people living together in society.
Aristotle’s philosophy is still sound today. But to the extent that we side with him, we must challenge our
modern era’s overwhelming emphasis on the STEM disciplines as the key to progress. Yes, we will continue to
welcome advances in computerization, robotics, nanotechnologies, medicine and more. But to ensure these
innovations are in service of the good life, we must also advance our thinking in the humanities: philosophy, social
affairs and the arts.
Instead of just STEM, we should perhaps be promoting STEMMA.In that case, we will be able to raise a
new generation that has greater capacities for managing collective human efforts and appreciating the arts.
Management education — the new “M” in the acronym (缩略词) — has not always been integrated into humanistic
thinking, but it must become more so. Our goal must be to develop the thoughtful business leaders of the future.
Regarding the “A,” how could it be beneficial to the future without emphasizing the arts, which inform our
knowledge of beauty and meaning in human affairs? All the brilliant discoveries of STEM will not solve the grand
challenges of today’s world — ignorance, poverty, intolerance and political conflict — without the practical wisdom
of humanities-trained leaders.
We can’t march boldly into the future without demanding rapid advancement in the capabilities necessary for
preserving our human dignity in a world of artificial super intelligence. Humans are not robots and neurons (神经元)
are not digital switches. It is only through the humanities that we will be able to appreciate the answers that
superintelligent computers give us when we ask them the hard questions. It is only through the humanities that we
will increasingly recognize and build on what we humans uniquely are.
51.What is the primary limitation of relying only on STEM disciplines?
A.They lack the precision needed for modern innovations.
B.They cannot address complex human social challenges alone.
C.They prevent the development of artificial superintelligence.
D.They are too focused on theoretical rather than practical knowledge.
52.The term “practical wisdom” as used by Aristotle emphasizes ______.
A.a balanced approach that considers the common good
B.the need for military strategies in societal development
C.the importance of technological advancement above all else
D.the superiority of scientific knowledge over political cunning
53.What is the author’s purpose in proposing the term “STEMMA”?
A.To replace STEM entirely with a new educational framework.
B.To criticize the current emphasis on technology and engineering.
C.To argue for the inclusion of management and arts in STEM education.
D.To promote the study of ancient Greek philosophy in modern curricula.
54.Which of the following best summarizes Aristotle’s view on scientific knowledge and cunning intelligence?
A.Both are equally harmful to societal progress.
B.Neither is sufficient without practical wisdom.
C.Scientific knowledge is superior to cunning intelligence.
D.Cunning intelligence is more relevant to modern politics.
55.How does the author view the relationship between humans and artificial superintelligence?
A.Humans will eventually be replaced by intelligent robots.
B.Superintelligence will make human decision-making irrelevant.
C.STEM disciplines alone can ensure ethical use of superintelligence.
D.Human dignity and unique qualities must be preserved via humanities.

阅读下面短文,并根据题目要求用英语回答问题(请注意问题后的字数要求)。
One hot August afternoon, Deena Hoagland and her son Joe sat on a floating platform at Dolphins Plus, a
marine center in Key Largo, Florida. Nearby, a large dolphin circled, occasionally lifting its head through the water
to observe them. Suddenly, the dolphin threw water on them. Three-year-old Joe, who had a stroke (中风) six weeks
earlier, smiled and laughed for the first time since.
Joe was born with a rare heart condition and spent much of his first three years in hospitals. After several heart
surgeries, the last one led to a stroke, which left him unconscious for eight days As a result, he lost movement on one
side of his body and couldn’t see out of one eye. Feeling hopeless and deeply saddened, Joe became despondent and
lost interest in everything, even his favorite toys. Doctors suggested placing him in a full-time rehabilitation center.
Deena refused and decided to try dolphin-assisted therapy. She called Dolphins Plus and got permission to
bring Joe. To the surprise of Lloyd Borgas, the owner, Deena arrived with Joe minutes after the call. Borgas was
unsure about the wisdom of his generosity but led them to a platform where Joe met Fonzie, a playful dolphin.
Joe’s reaction to Fonzie was positive, and Deena brought him back daily. Joe slowly began to recover from his
depression. With each visit, he regained some movement on his left side. Trainers encouraged Joe to swim with
Fonzie, and by mid-September, he was swimming with his new friend. Trainers challenged Joe to feed Fonzie with
his left hand, helping him regain strength. Over the next two years, Joe fully recovered.
Now a healthy teenager, Joe frequently visits Fonzie and helps his parents with Island Dolphin Care, a
program Deena started to help other special-needs children. The program has been successful, helping many children
and their families. Deena emphasizes that while dolphins have no special healing powers, the joy and laughter they
bring to children can feel magical.
56.Why did Joe smile and laugh for the first time since his stroke? (no more than 10 words)
57.What difficulties did Joe experience after his surgery? (no more than 15 words)
