阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C 和 D)中,选出最佳选项。
A
The Importance of Being Earnest (Author: Oscar Wilde)
This comedic play by Oscar Wilde takes a sharp look at Victorian social values while following two men-Jack Worthing and Algernon Moncrieff-as they tell lies to bring some excitement to their lives. The Importance of Being Earnest was Wilde’s final play, and some consider it his masterpiece.
A Raisin in the Sun (Author: Lorraine Hansberry)
The story follows the Youngers, a working class black family living on the South Side of Chicago who move to an all-white neighborhood and struggling with the unfair treatment. In 1959, Lorraine Hansberry became the first black playwright to get a play produced on Broadway.
Frankenstein (Author: Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley)
The story was published in 1818 and introduced readers to Dr Victor Frankenstein, a scientist who brings to life a creature that he put together from the parts of the dead body. Although Dr Frankenstein is frightened by his creation and gives up the plan halfway, the creature manages to educate itself and then seeks a punishment on his creator. The novel explores humanity’s desire for creation and the fear of change it brings.
Animal Farm (Author: George Orwell)
A group of farm animals fight against their master, Mr Jones, after they realize he is mistreating them and offering them nothing in return for their work. When they challenge the leadership, they are disciplined for speaking out. This classic isn’t about animal rights. It is a larger criticism (批判) of Soviet Communism. Orwell wrote it to protest against Stalinism in Russia.

A mother of nine who started medical school when her youngest child was 4 years old graduated with her degree and plans to be a neurosurgeon (神经外科医生).
Sarah Merrill, now 41, said her journey to medical school began at age 17. She then met her husband and got married. Merrill first thought about going to school part-time to get a degree, but later she decided to follow her dream of attending medical school. Certainly, it was a challenge. Speaking of her successfully returning to university, Merrill owed it to her family largely. “When I was accepted at Mayo Clinic Alix School of Medicine, we moved from Pennsylvania to Arizona,” said Merrill, who is moving to Indiana with her family to begin her residency (实习期) in neurosurgery. “In fact, they volunteered these movements. I know it was tough for all of us.”
Merrill and her children often have “homework parties” where they study for their own courses. Merrill’s choice has given a kind of stimulus to her children. Merrill felt touched knowing her 11-year-old daughter wants to become a surgeon and overhearing her son tell his friends his mom’s going to be a cool brain surgeon, though he doesn’t understand that really.
Merrill’s next step into a neurosurgery residency will take her into a male-dominated field where only 5% of board certified neurosurgeons are women. Dr. Michele Halyard at Mayo Clinic Alix School of Medicine said Merrill was known as a focused student. Halyard said, “If you can deal with nine children patiently, the residency should be a piece of cake because no amount of stress will make you fail.”
Merrill had considered choosing a more family-friendly career, but, again, she chose to follow her original dream. It’s the same advice she would give to all. “Set the goal that is what you’re really enthusiastic about, and it helps to think small. If you know what your interest is, focus on the next step. Then you’ll get where you want to go.”
24. Why does Merrill mention their movements
A. To stress the support of her family.
B. To show her determination to be a doctor.
C. To reflect difficulties in attending college.
D. To describe the process of pursuing her dream.
25. What does the underlined word “stimulus” mean in paragraph 3
A. Comfort. B. Development. C. Choice. D. Inspiration.
26. What do Halyard’s words in paragraph 4 mean
A. Merrill will have more stress to handle.
B. Being mom ensures Merrill a better doctor.
C. Staying focused and sensible is key to success.
D. Merrill can make it in the residency.
27. What does Merrill mainly suggest in the last paragraph
A. Starting with small things. B. Being true to your passion.
C. Keeping your interest right. D. Having the courage to dream big.
C
During the summer holiday, visiting museums has become a new fashion, with several famous museums being considered as “must-visit” places by visitors. Tourists were seen queuing for long hours in front of museums and getting entrance tickets became more challenging.
According to media reports, the Henan Museum received more than 12,000 visitors this summer, nearly double that of the same period in 2019. The Hangzhou Museum recorded 12,800 visitors on July 16, setting a new daily attendance record. In response to the growing need, 46 museums in Beijing canceled their Monday closures and remained open daily until August 31.
According to Xinhua News Agency, the “museum fever” can be caused by various factors, including the public’s increasing enthusiasm for traditional Chinese culture, the increasing market for youth educational tours and summer camps, as well as the continuous development of museums.
Lin Liugen, the director of the Institute of Archaeology at Zhejiang University, said the “museum craze” reflects a deep connection between the public and traditional culture. As the economy and society progress, more people want to have a deeper understanding of China’s rich culture and history. 江苏省海安高级中学 景苏华 QQ:771515126
Summer camps, family trips and educational tours have been the primary forms of tourism this summer, with museum visits becoming a must-do activity for travelers.
Besides, the application of new technologies has made cultural relics (遗物) easier to reach. For instance, 3D projection technology breathes life into those relics, enabling them to come alive before visitors’ eyes. AR glasses offer a special experience by allowing visitors to enjoy relics through voice orders and sight recognition. Additionally, an advanced intelligent lighting system helps display relics more clearly and vividly. Liu Yanchang, the curator(馆长)of the Shandong Museum, said “In the future, more and more people will take visiting museums as a kind of habit and lifestyle.” On how to better meet museumgoers’ needs, Sun Mingli, deputy curator of the Suzhou Museum, says that popular museums may consider using hourly booking systems or hosting “cloud exhibitions” to improve visitor experience.
28. According to the text, what is one of the reasons for the increase of museum visits
A. The public prefer traditional Chinese culture to modern culture.
B. The public see visiting museums as a good way to educate youth.
C. The museums remain open daily during the summer holiday.
D. The museums are the best places to understand China’s history.
29. Why are new technologies applied in museums now
A. To bring great convenience to modern museums.
B. To show the most advanced technologies.
C. To offer more real visitor experience.
D. To add some new traveling places.
30. According to Sun Mingli, what can museums do to provide better service
A. Improve the booking system or online displays.
B. Include more technologies into museum displays.
C. Limit the number of daily visitors in museums.
D. Require museumgoers to make earlier bookings.
31. Which of the following can be the best title for the text
A. Museum visits improve youth education.
B. China sees museum fever this summer.
C. Cultural relics become easier to reach.
D. Visitors expect more from future museums.
D
Li Bai holds a wine cup in his hand, while Du Fu sits in front of a desk, writing poems on the paper in front of him. It’s not that we have traveled to the past. Modern technology has brought them “back to life”.
The two great poets, along with other humanoid robots—robots who look similar to real human beings, were presented at the World Robot Conference 2023 in late August in Beijing. “The skin is made of medical-grade bionic silicone (仿生硅胶), which is why the skin looks soft and even the veins (血管) can be seen through it,” CGTN explained in a video about Liaoning-based producer EXBOBOTS.
Researchers are also trying hard to create other features of humans on robots. A US robotics startup Apptronik brought out its humanoid robot called Apollo on Aug 23. Apollo has around 30 muscles. However, “humans have around 300 muscles in our bodies,” Nick Paine, the co-founder of the company, told CNN. For now, engineers can only reduce the number of the muscles, allowing them to do basic movements like holding objects and walking.“Apollo still has a long way to go,” said Nick.
The robot also contains cameras and sensors in its head, helping it map out a 360-degree view of its environment. They also help the robot keep balance when walking on uncertain surfaces. 江苏省海安高级中学 景苏华 QQ:771515126
Nowadays, bionic human-like robots mostly work with humans, as tour guides or by helping visitors at front desks. There are also robots that share the work of nurses, such as handing out medicine. This could be because people are comfortable living and working with machines that look or act like them. They can “arouse strong feelings with people,” a US robotics scientist Marc Raibert told New Yorker.
As more humanoid robots come out, safety will be the key, according to the Robot Report website. When a 70-kilogram robot breaks down and falls, humans nearby may be hurt.
32. What do we know about the robots of Li Bai and Du Fu
A. They are able to compose original poems. B. They can communicate with visitors.
C. They look lifelike in many aspects. D. They can learn from each other.
33. According to the text, what is the disadvantage of the robot Apollo
A. It cannot perform complex movements. B. It cannot keep balance on some surfaces.
C. It moves very slowly when holding objects. D. It lacks the ability to tell directions.
34. Why do some bionic robots mostly work with humans now
A. They are as clever as humans. B. They understand human needs very well.
C. People feel comfortable with them. D. People see them as trustworthy friends.
35. Why should people be careful around humanoid robots
A. They can easily break. B. They sometimes become uncontrollable.
C. They might intentionally cause harm. D. They could cause safety risks.

Also, try not to rub your eyes. “Rubbing makes inflammation (炎症) worse,” says Dr. Akpek. “The more you rub, the more sick your eyes will get. It can lead to infections.” Instead, “take medication or use drops.”
Contact a specialist
Finally, don’t forget to see an eye specialist for a checkup. 40 , and all are best treated when found early. For most people, unless there are noticeable problems, the experts recommend a baseline exam at age 40 and then follow-ups as recommended by the doctor.

Possible version:
Dear fellow students,
The “World Hello Day” is approaching. It is my privilege today to encourage all of you to spread goodwill and warmth through greetings.
As we all know, a simple gesture of greeting not only shows politeness, but also has the power to brighten someone’s day. By greeting others, we acknowledge their presence and make them feel valued. We should take this opportunity to reach out to the people around us, whether they’re our family, friends, or even strangers. A greeting can be a simple “hello” or “good morning”, or even a smile. It might seem small, but it can make a big difference.
I urge each of you to embrace the spirit of the day, creating an environment where everyone feels welcomed and cherished. Let’s make every day a World Hello Day.
第二节 (满分 15 分)
Possible version:
As we walk the path of life, friends are an essential part that can’t be missed. Good friendships will definitely bring us many benefits, such as comforting the heart, advising the head and helping us achieve our goals. A real friend is someone whom we can count on, someone whom we share our joy and sadness with, and someone who sees our true self.
While modern social media are changing our methods of making friends and even eating away at the meaning of friendship, friendship itself doesn’t change a lot. Friends should be carefully chosen and relationship carefully developed, in which case we are able to become happier, wiser and more satisfied humans.
