The twins, Kayla and Kellie Bingham, were accused of “academic dishonesty” in May 2016 after test proctors (监考员) reviewed the results of an exam on which their performance was considered to be remarkably similar. The sisters’ identical answers to 296 of 307 questions, including 54 wrong answers, raised alarm bells among university
officials, who launched an investigation into the twins’ performance.
“It was an eight-hour exam during which we exhibited normal test-taking behavior,” Kayla Bingham said.
The Binghams successfully appealed against the decision and filed a lawsuit ( 起诉) against the university, arguing that for years they had behaved and performed similarly academically and in athletics. After a four-day trial
in November, a South Carolina jury (陪审团) decided the school had wronged the sisters and awarded them a total
of $1.5 million in damages.
The Binghams’ legal case depended on the theory that it is common for identical twins to perform similarly on tests given their genetic profiles. Nancy Segal, who runs California State University, Fullerton’s Twin Studies
Center and who testified in the case, said, “I would have been surprised if they hadn’t scored alike.”
In their suit, the Binghams said the cheating allegations (指控) led to their experiencing psychological distress,
including panic attacks and stress disorder.
“It was a very hostile environment. People we had known, sat next to and studied with for two years would not speak to us,” Kellie Bingham told CBS. “They knew our work ethic (道德准则) and study habits but refused to
hear our side of the story. People we trusted completely turned their backs on us.”
The university’s accusation and the events that followed also interfered with the Binghams’ plans to become doctors. The two now work as government affairs advisers at the same South Carolina law firm. “We came to understand that once word gets out, even if it’s not accurate, it damages your reputation as a person. So we
completely switched tracks,” Kayla said, adding that she “wanted to fight back because I had been wronged.”
24 ．Why were the twins accused of cheating in the exam
A ．They did a good job in the test.
B ．They exhibited abnormal test-taking behavior.
C ．They were seen signaling one another and passing notes.
D ．They had remarkably similar test performance.
25 ．What can be learned from paragraph 3 and 4
A ．The Binghams at last lost the lawsuit against the university.
B ．Nancy Segal was not satisfied with the jury’s decision.
C ．The jury’s decision was based on a theory about identical twins.
D ．This was the first time that the Binghams had scored alike.
26 ．What attitude do people have towards the twins after the cheating allegations
A ．Approving. B ．Suspicious. C ．Objective. D ．Tolerant.
27 ．What influence does the university’s accusation have on the twins
A ．They will stick to being a doctor and helping those suffering people.
B ．They’ve decided to become advisors instead of doctors.
C ．Their reputation has been damaged so they can’t be doctors.
D ．They’ve handled it very well and are in a good mental state.
C
The ability to use tools is rare in the animal world. Recently, ravens(渡鸭)have been proven capable of more
than just using tools.
According to a paper published in Current Biology in April, 2023, scientists designed various tasks for a group of ravens. The first task was getting a nut out of a puzzle box, requiring two tools: first a short, sharp tool used to cut the membrane (薄膜), then a long stick to get the nut out of a hole, Five out of 10 ravens were able to reach the
nut.
In the following tasks, the ravens were observed picking up tools before doing the task, showing their ability
to plan ahead. Researchers also noticed that each raven had a different way of carrying and using the tools.
Using a set of tools means that the animal can “solve problems through flexibly applying some insight of a
given situation,” Mark Briffa at the University of Plymouth, UK, told CNN.
The great intelligence of ravens makes them popular pets—they can imitate sounds and dance to music. However, these smart birds may suffer from mental health issues as mon signs of stress and anxiety include biting and feather picking, according to the PetMD website. Biting is often regarded as a form of attack, but sometimes ravens bite others due to stress and fear. Feather picking can be a more serious sign that the raven is
unhappy. In extreme conditions, a raven may pluck(拔)out all of its feathers.
Some other pets show similar troubling behaviors too. For example, according to Discover magazine, pet dogs may chew their nails or lick their bodies so much that they form ulcers( 溃 疡). Pets desire attention, joy and
excitement. As scientists learn more about animal intelligence, we should keep in mind that they may suffer from
psychological illnesses just like we do.
28 ．What was the first task
A ．Picking up a nut using a long stick.
B ．Breaking open a nut with a sharp tool.
C ．Carrying a set of tools to a specific location.
D ．Cutting a hole in a puzzle box and reaching a nut inside.
29 ．What did scientists discover about the ravens from their studies
A ．They were unable to plan ahead. B ．They could not create a set of tools.
C ．They used the tools in different ways. D ．Most of them managed to reach the nut.
30 ．What is a sign of stress and anxiety in ravens, according to the article
A ．Developing ulcers. B ．Imitating sounds.
C ．Quickly flapping their wings. D ．Plucking and picking at their feathers.
31 ．Which of the following is a suitable title for the text
A ．What makes ravens a popular pet
B ．Ravens suffer from mental problems
C ．Ravens are smarter than other birds
D ．Ravens’ high intelligence is a mixed blessing
D
A growing body of research suggests that the gut microbiome (消化道菌群) could play a major role in a rising chronic disease that makes us physically weaker. The illness, which is commonly called chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS), is characterized by intense fatigue, gastrointestinal (胃肠道的) issues, muscle pain, and cognitive challenges such as headaches and difficulty concentrating, among other symptoms. It often follows a viral infection which can lead to a “disruption” in a balanced gut ecosystem. Actually, an increasing number of Americans have been the
sufferers since the outbreak of COVID-19.
Two recent studies published in Cell Host &Microbe point to changes in the microbiome as a possible cause of CFS. Research groups at Columbia University and the Jackson Laboratory performed detailed analyses of
the microbes in stool (粪便) samples from patients with CFS and compared them to healthy controls.
The two groups found similar bacteria species were less present in CFS patients compared to control patients. They focused on bacteria that produce butyrate, a fatty acid involved in regulating metabolism and the immune system. “Butyrate plays several roles in directing the body’s response to infections, while also protecting the barrier between the intestine (肠) and the circulatory system, regulating genetic changes in cells, and more,” says Brent Williams, lead author on the Columbia study. Williams and his colleagues extensively analyzed the role of butyrate in CFS patients’ guts, even identifying a correlation between low levels of bacteria that produce this acid and more
severe symptoms.
Parallel findings from the Jackson Laboratory team suggest the bacteria that produce butyrate could be used to diagnose CFS. Previous research has identified microbiome issues in CFS patients, but the new findings help
clarify which microbes could be related to the illness.
More research on butyrate-producing bacteria and other species identified in the studies is necessary to
investigate these potential biomarkers of CFS, the authors say. If the findings are replicated, specific gut bacteria
could be used to diagnose the illness, which is currently identified based on symptoms alone.
The findings additionally point toward possible treatments, such as probiotics or microbiome-focused diet adjustments—though patients who have been sick for long periods may require drugs that alleviate the damage
done to their metabolism or immune system.
32 ．What do we know about CFS
A ．It is caused by COVID-19 only.
B ．It is an illness with systemic symptoms.
C ．It breaks the balance of the gut ecosystem.
D ．The number of the infected is on the decrease.
33 ．How did the researcher carry out the recent studies
A ．By controlling data.
B ．By identifying genes.
C ．By analyzing samples.
D ．By comparing symptoms.
34 ．Which of the following is NOT the significance of the recent researches
A ．Butyrate’s multiple functions are promoted.
B ．Targeted gut microbes may be used to diagnose CFS.
C ．Certain microbes responsible for CFS are narrowed down.
D ．Probiotics supplement with drugs can be a treatment for CFS.
35 ．What is the text mainly about
A ．Gut microbiome may be the key to CFS.
B ．Microbes help digest food and aid absorption.
C ．Man’s gut is a rich, diverse tropical rainforest.
D ．New method for diagnosing CFS are provided.
第二节（共 5 小题；每小题 2.5 分，满分 12.5 分）
It’s important to plan ahead, but you have to live with the fact that you just can’t plan for everything. Life
takes unexpected twists and turns(曲折)and throws surprises your way. 36 . Luckily, here are some advice
on how to get through.
Reflect.
37 . Reflect both on what’s hard and on what’s still good. Maybe that’s in a diary or through a
conversation with a friend. It doesn’t matter how you reflect, just that you find time to pause in a crisis.
38 .
There’s no right way to get through a difficult time. Some people get super productive. Others, not so much.
Thus, it’s important to let go of the pressure of others’ expectations and ignore messages like what you should do.
Find your thing for the day.
Once you’ve stopped focusing on what you should do, take time to recharge by doing good, meaningful, even
productive things. Maybe for you it’s baking a pie or organizing a closet. 39 .
Don’t try to make sense of things too soon.
It can be tempting to rush through an uncertain situation and try to make it seem certain—to leap ahead to what might be next or try to find reasons for things. 40 . Things are just hard. So don’t try to make sense of
things too soon. That leaves room for new possibilities.
A ．Don’t “should” on yourself
B ．Sometimes there isn’t a reason
C ．Move past shame
D ．Allow yourself to get in touch with how you’re feeling
E ．And you feel lost about how to handle those uncertainties
F ．You have to write a whole diary entry
G ．Just follow your heart and do it for the day

With roots 56 (date) back thousands of years, Chinese seals ( 印章) are more than just a unique image; they are symbolic of identity, status, and culture. A Chinese seal is a seal or stamp used to mark important
documents, pieces of art, contracts, or any other item that 57 (require) a signature.
The seal was first created in 221 BC ． The first emperor of China, Qin Shi Huang, ordered his first imperial (皇帝的) seal to be carved using beautiful white jade (玉). 58 (call) the“Xi”, the imperial seal was only used by those in power. It wasn’t until the Ming and Qing dynasties 59 the seal’s usage moved from the imperial to the personal, due to the 60 (expand) of arts. Artists began using a stylized seal carving of their names to mark ownership of their works. 61 (individual) also began using a personalized stamp for
important documents. These non-official stamps were called “Yin” .
62 (typical), the seals are carved into stone, but they can also 63 (make) of wood, bamboo, or bone. Seals are carved in one of two ways: the material is carved away from the character, leaving a red ink outline when used on paper, 64 the character is carved into the material, leaving the character
65 white among a red background.

Most of us never forget the person that was there for us in our darkest times. Apparently, penguins ( 企鹅)
don’t either.
On a typical day, off the coast of a small Brazilian island, Joao Pereira de Souza headed out fishing. He was disheartened to find that an oil leak had polluted the waters. Staring out at the oily waves, he decided it was not a
good day to fish. But walking on the beach that day, he found a struggling penguin, covered in oil and starving.
Joao took the penguin home, and spent a whole week gently cleaning it and nursing it back to health. He named it Dindim, a Portuguese word meaning “ice pop”. Dindim is a Magellanic penguin, a species known for living in the seas of South America. In order to breed ( 繁殖), they must return to Patagonia, 5,000 miles from
Joao’s home.
After a week of rehabilitation (康复), Joao patiently took Dindim back to the sea and taught it how to swim again. When Dindim could swim quite well, Joao took it out into the sea by boat and dropped it off to encourage it to swim back to its home. But when he was back to shore, he found the penguin waiting for him. Joao made two more attempts later, but each time the bird would just return to Joao’s home. It seemed that Dindim had already
formed a family bond with Joao and wouldn’t leave.
Joao had no choice but to keep the little creature. During the following months, Dindim would follow behind Joao to fish on the coast joyfully. Dindim also liked to lie on Joao’s lap, letting Joao give it showers, allowing Joao to feed it fish and to pick it up. Joao and his family enjoyed the company of Dindim. But deep inside Joao’s heart,
he knew Dindim belonged to the wild. Gradually, the hot summer days witnessed the change of its new feathers.
Was it time to say “goodbye”

1. 续写词数成为 150 左右；

【答案】 17 ．B 18 ．C 19 ．C 20 ．B
【原文】
M: OK, are you all settled Well, first of all welcome to Cardiff University. I’m here to explain what we can
offer you.
Now, as a new student at the university, you will probably need some sort of guidance to help you to use the
library effectively to study and research. Some of you have asked about a guided tour but we find this rather confuses people. So, in this first week, we run a series of talks which focus on different aspects of the library and
the resources.
OK, now let me give you an outline of what’s available to you. You’ll find that the computers are increasingly used as a research tool. Many students do most of their research on the Internet and the library computers are permanently online. Having found what you need, you’ll find you can readily save texts on your personal computer
space to print off when you need.
Naturally we do still have a full range of classic reference books for you to use and there are several copies of each one. This is because some of you may prefer to borrow a book rather than sit in the library. There is a restricted loan time on these so that they are not missing from the shelves for too long. Although there is Section Manager for each part of the library, they are very busy and so, if you do get stuck looking for things, you should ask the relevant Cataloguing Assistant. As your Training Supervisor, I just oversee your work for a week and will
not be around after this initial week.

（2022 秋 · 浙江学军 中学高三模拟 ）The twins, Kayla and Kellie Bingham, were accused of “academic dishonesty” in May 2016 after test proctors (监考员) reviewed the results of an exam on which their performance was considered to be remarkably similar. The sisters’ identical answers to 296 of 307 questions, including 54 wrong answers, raised alarm bells among university officials, who launched an investigation into the twins’
performance.
“It was an eight-hour exam during which we exhibited normal test-taking behavior,” Kayla Bingham said.
The Binghams successfully appealed against the decision and filed a lawsuit ( 起诉) against the university, arguing that for years they had behaved and performed similarly academically and in athletics. After a four-day trial in November, a South Carolina jury (陪审团) decided the school had wronged the sisters and awarded them a total
of $1.5 million in damages.
The Binghams’ legal case depended on the theory that it is common for identical twins to perform similarly on tests given their genetic profiles. Nancy Segal, who runs California State University, Fullerton’s Twin Studies
Center and who testified in the case, said, “I would have been surprised if they hadn’t scored alike.”
In their suit, the Binghams said the cheating allegations (指控) led to their experiencing psychological distress,
including panic attacks and stress disorder.
“It was a very hostile environment. People we had known, sat next to and studied with for two years would not speak to us,” Kellie Bingham told CBS. “They knew our work ethic (道德准则) and study habits but refused to
hear our side of the story. People we trusted completely turned their backs on us.”
The university’s accusation and the events that followed also interfered with the Binghams’ plans to become doctors. The two now work as government affairs advisers at the same South Carolina law firm. “We came to
understand that once word gets out, even if it’s not accurate, it damages your reputation as a person. So we
completely switched tracks,” Kayla said, adding that she “wanted to fight back because I had been wronged.”
24 ．Why were the twins accused of cheating in the exam
A ．They did a good job in the test.
B ．They exhibited abnormal test-taking behavior.
C ．They were seen signaling one another and passing notes.
D ．They had remarkably similar test performance.
25 ．What can be learned from paragraph 3 and 4
A ．The Binghams at last lost the lawsuit against the university.
B ．Nancy Segal was not satisfied with the jury’s decision.
C ．The jury’s decision was based on a theory about identical twins.
D ．This was the first time that the Binghams had scored alike.
26 ．What attitude do people have towards the twins after the cheating allegations
A ．Approving. B ．Suspicious. C ．Objective. D ．Tolerant.
27 ．What influence does the university’s accusation have on the twins
A ．They will stick to being a doctor and helping those suffering people.
B ．They’ve decided to become advisors instead of doctors.
C ．Their reputation has been damaged so they can’t be doctors.
D ．They’ve handled it very well and are in a good mental state.

问工作，而不是做医生。故选 B 项。
C
（2023·安徽合肥八中模拟）The ability to use tools is rare in the animal world. Recently, ravens(渡鸭)have
been proven capable of more than just using tools.
According to a paper published in Current Biology in April, 2023, scientists designed various tasks for a group of ravens. The first task was getting a nut out of a puzzle box, requiring two tools: first a short, sharp tool used to cut the membrane (薄膜), then a long stick to get the nut out of a hole, Five out of 10 ravens were able to reach the
nut.
In the following tasks, the ravens were observed picking up tools before doing the task, showing their ability
to plan ahead. Researchers also noticed that each raven had a different way of carrying and using the tools.
Using a set of tools means that the animal can “solve problems through flexibly applying some insight of a
given situation,” Mark Briffa at the University of Plymouth, UK, told CNN.
The great intelligence of ravens makes them popular pets—they can imitate sounds and dance to music. However, these smart birds may suffer from mental health issues as mon signs of stress and anxiety include biting and feather picking, according to the PetMD website. Biting is often regarded as a form of attack, but
sometimes ravens bite others due to stress and fear. Feather picking can be a more serious sign that the raven is
unhappy. In extreme conditions, a raven may pluck(拔)out all of its feathers.
Some other pets show similar troubling behaviors too. For example, according to Discover magazine, pet dogs may chew their nails or lick their bodies so much that they form ulcers( 溃 疡). Pets desire attention, joy and excitement. As scientists learn more about animal intelligence, we should keep in mind that they may suffer from
psychological illnesses just like we do.
28 ．What was the first task
A ．Picking up a nut using a long stick.
B ．Breaking open a nut with a sharp tool.
C ．Carrying a set of tools to a specific location.
D ．Cutting a hole in a puzzle box and reaching a nut inside.
29 ．What did scientists discover about the ravens from their studies
A ．They were unable to plan ahead. B ．They could not create a set of tools.
C ．They used the tools in different ways. D ．Most of them managed to reach the nut.
30 ．What is a sign of stress and anxiety in ravens, according to the article
A ．Developing ulcers. B ．Imitating sounds.
C ．Quickly flapping their wings. D ．Plucking and picking at their feathers.
31 ．Which of the following is a suitable title for the text
A ．What makes ravens a popular pet
B ．Ravens suffer from mental problems
C ．Ravens are smarter than other birds
D ．Ravens’ high intelligence is a mixed blessing
【答案】28 ．D 29 ．C 30 ．D 31 ．D
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。本文介绍了渡鸦不仅能有计划因地制宜地使用工具，而且也承受心理问题之
苦。
28．细节理解题。文章第二段介绍了实验的第一个任务， 该段提到“The first task was getting a nut out of a puzzle box, requiring two tools: first a short, sharp tool used to cut the membrane, then a long stick to get the nut out of a hole.” （第一个任务是从一个谜盒里取出一个坚果， 需要两种工具： 第一种是用来切开薄膜的短而锋利的工 具， 然后是一根长棍子， 把坚果从洞里取出来。 10 只渡鸦中有 5 只能够到坚果。）可知， 该任务是需要把拼
图盒的薄膜割破然后把坚果从拼图盒里取出来。故选 D。
29．细节理解题。第三段提到“Researchers also noticed that each raven had a different way of carrying and using the tools.”（研究人员还注意到，每只渡鸦都有不同的携带和使用工具的方式。） 可知，每只渡鸦使用工具的方
式都不一样。故选 C。
30 ．细节理解题。第五段提到“Common signs of stress and anxiety include biting and feather picking. . . but sometimes ravens bite others due to stress and fear. Feather picking can be a more serious sign that the raven is unhappy. In extreme conditions, a raven may pluck out all of its feathers.”（根据 PetMD 网站的说法，压力和焦 虑的常见迹象包括咬人和抓羽毛。咬人通常被认为是一种攻击，但有时渡鸦咬人是由于压力和恐惧。拔渡 鸦可能是乌鸦不开心的一个更严重的迹象。在极端的情况下， 渡鸦可能会拔掉自己所有的羽毛。）由此判断，
渡鸦在感到焦虑的时候就会拔下自己的羽毛。故选 D。
31．主旨大意题。文章第一段提到“The ability to use tools is rare in the animal world. Recently, ravens(渡鸭)have been proven capable of more than just using tools.” （使用工具的能力在动物世界中是罕见的。最近， 乌鸦被证 明不止会使用工具。）第二、三、四段提到了通过实验， 乌鸦可以使用工具来获得盒子里的坚果， 证明了渡 鸦智商高， 第五段讲述高智商的渡鸦可能会得心理疾病以及常见症状， DRavens’ high intelligence is a mixed
blessing”（渡鸦的高智商是件喜忧参半的事）该项能全面概括文章中讲的内容。故选 D。
D
（2023·福建福州一中三模）A growing body of research suggests that the gut microbiome (消化道菌群) could play a major role in a rising chronic disease that makes us physically weaker. The illness, which is commonly called chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS), is characterized by intense fatigue, gastrointestinal ( 胃肠道 的) issues, muscle pain, and cognitive challenges such as headaches and difficulty concentrating, among other symptoms. It often follows a viral infection which can lead to a “disruption” in a balanced gut ecosystem. Actually, an increasing
number of Americans have been the sufferers since the outbreak of COVID-19.
Two recent studies published in Cell Host &Microbe point to changes in the microbiome as a possible cause of CFS. Research groups at Columbia University and the Jackson Laboratory performed detailed analyses of
the microbes in stool (粪便) samples from patients with CFS and compared them to healthy controls.
The two groups found similar bacteria species were less present in CFS patients compared to control patients. They focused on bacteria that produce butyrate, a fatty acid involved in regulating metabolism and the immune system. “Butyrate plays several roles in directing the body’s response to infections, while also protecting the barrier
between the intestine (肠) and the circulatory system, regulating genetic changes in cells, and more,” says Brent
Williams, lead author on the Columbia study. Williams and his colleagues extensively analyzed the role of butyrate in CFS patients’ guts, even identifying a correlation between low levels of bacteria that produce this acid and more
severe symptoms.
Parallel findings from the Jackson Laboratory team suggest the bacteria that produce butyrate could be used to diagnose CFS. Previous research has identified microbiome issues in CFS patients, but the new findings help
clarify which microbes could be related to the illness.
More research on butyrate-producing bacteria and other species identified in the studies is necessary to investigate these potential biomarkers of CFS, the authors say. If the findings are replicated, specific gut bacteria
could be used to diagnose the illness, which is currently identified based on symptoms alone.
The findings additionally point toward possible treatments, such as probiotics or microbiome-focused diet adjustments—though patients who have been sick for long periods may require drugs that alleviate the damage
done to their metabolism or immune system.
32 ．What do we know about CFS
A ．It is caused by COVID-19 only.
B ．It is an illness with systemic symptoms.
C ．It breaks the balance of the gut ecosystem.
D ．The number of the infected is on the decrease.
33 ．How did the researcher carry out the recent studies
A ．By controlling data.
B ．By identifying genes.
C ．By analyzing samples.
D ．By comparing symptoms.
34 ．Which of the following is NOT the significance of the recent researches
A ．Butyrate’s multiple functions are promoted.
B ．Targeted gut microbes may be used to diagnose CFS.
C ．Certain microbes responsible for CFS are narrowed down.
D ．Probiotics supplement with drugs can be a treatment for CFS.
35 ．What is the text mainly about
A ．Gut microbiome may be the key to CFS.
B ．Microbes help digest food and aid absorption.
C ．Man’s gut is a rich, diverse tropical rainforest.
D ．New method for diagnosing CFS are provided.
【答案】32 ．B 33 ．C 34 ．A 35 ．A
【导语】这是一篇说明文。越来越多的研究表明，肠道微生物群可能在越来越多的慢性疾病中发挥重要作
用。文章介绍了研究开展的过程以及其研究发现的意义。
32 ．细节理解题 。根据第一段 “The illness, which is commonly called chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS), is characterized by intense fatigue, gastrointestinal (胃肠道的) issues, muscle pain, and cognitive challenges such as headaches and difficulty concentrating, among other symptoms.(这种疾病通常被称为慢性疲劳综合征（CFS）， 其特征是强烈的疲劳、胃肠道问题、肌肉疼痛和认知挑战， 如头痛和注意力不集中等症状)”可知， 慢性疲劳
综合症是一种有全身性症状的疾病。故选 B。
33 ．细节理解题。根据第二段“Research groups at Columbia University and the Jackson Laboratory performed detailed analyses of the microbes in stool (粪便) samples from patients with CFS and compared them to healthy controls.(哥伦比亚大学和杰克逊实验室的研究小组对慢性疲劳综合症患者粪便样本中的微生物进行了详细
分析，并将其与健康对照进行了比较)”可知，研究人员通过分析样本进行的研究。故选 C。
34 ．细节理解题。根据倒数第三段“Parallel findings from the Jackson Laboratory team suggest the bacteria that produce butyrate could be used to diagnose CFS.(杰克逊实验室团队的类似发现表明，产生丁酸盐的细菌可以 用来诊断慢性疲劳综合症)”；倒数第二段“If the findings are replicated, specific gut bacteria could be used to diagnose the illness, which is currently identified based on symptoms alone.(如果这些发现被复制， 特定的肠道细 菌可以用来诊断疾病， 目前仅根据症状来识别疾病)”以及最后一段“The findings additionally point toward possible treatments, such as probiotics or microbiome-focused diet adjustments—though patients who have been sick for long periods may require drugs that alleviate the damage done to their metabolism or immune system.(研究 结果还指出了可能的治疗方法，比如益生菌或以微生物群为重点的饮食调整——尽管长期患病的患者可能 需要药物来减轻对新陈代谢或免疫系统的损害)”可知， A 选项“促进丁酸盐的多种功能”不是研究的意义。故

第二节（共 5 小题；每小题 2.5 分，满分 12.5 分）
（2023 秋 · 江西临川一中期末）It’s important to plan ahead, but you have to live with the fact that you just can’t plan for everything. Life takes unexpected twists and turns(曲折)and throws surprises your way. 36 .
Luckily, here are some advice on how to get through.
Reflect.
37 . Reflect both on what’s hard and on what’s still good. Maybe that’s in a diary or through a
conversation with a friend. It doesn’t matter how you reflect, just that you find time to pause in a crisis.
38 .
There’s no right way to get through a difficult time. Some people get super productive. Others, not so much.
Thus, it’s important to let go of the pressure of others’ expectations and ignore messages like what you should do.
Find your thing for the day.
Once you’ve stopped focusing on what you should do, take time to recharge by doing good, meaningful, even
productive things. Maybe for you it’s baking a pie or organizing a closet. 39 .
Don’t try to make sense of things too soon.
It can be tempting to rush through an uncertain situation and try to make it seem certain—to leap ahead to what might be next or try to find reasons for things. 40 . Things are just hard. So don’t try to make sense of
things too soon. That leaves room for new possibilities.
A ．Don’t “should” on yourself
B ．Sometimes there isn’t a reason
C ．Move past shame
D ．Allow yourself to get in touch with how you’re feeling
E ．And you feel lost about how to handle those uncertainties
F ．You have to write a whole diary entry
G ．Just follow your heart and do it for the day
【答案】36 ．E 37 ．D 38 ．A 39 ．G 40 ．B
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了一些处理生活中发生的意想不到的事的方法。
36．根据前文“Life takes unexpected twists and turns and throws surprises your way.(生活总是有意想不到的波折， 给你带来惊喜)”以及后文“Luckily, here are some advice on how to get through.(幸运的是， 这里有一些如何度过 难关的建议)”可知， 空处应是一个过渡句， 从讲生活中会发生意想不到的事， 过渡到讲述处理方法， 所以 E 项“And you feel lost about how to handle those uncertainties(你不知道如何处理这些不确定性)”符合文意。故选
E 项。
37 ．根据本段小标题“Reflect(反思)”可知，本段主要讲反思生活中发生的事， 设空位于段首，应该是对小标 题的进一步说明，所以 D 项“Allow yourself to get in touch with how you’re feeling(允许自己去了解自己的感
受)”是对反思的解释，符合文意。故选 D 项。
38 ．分析设空可知， 空处应该是小标题， 是对本段的高度概括， 根据后文“There’s no right way to get through a difficult time. Some people get super productive. Others, not so much. Thus, it’s important to let go of the pressure of others’ expectations and ignore messages like what you should do.(没有正确的方法来度过困难的时 刻。有些人的方法效率很高。但是对其他人，就没那么高效了。因此，放下他人期望的压力，忽略你应该 做的事情是很重要的)”可知， 本段是在讲对自己不要给太多压力， 没有那么多应该做的事， 要学会放下， 所
以 A 项“Don’t “should” on yourself(对自己，没有那么多“应该”)”符合文意。故选 A 项。
39．分析设空可知， 空处位于段尾， 是对前文的总结， 根据前文“Once you’ve stopped focusing on what you should do, take time to recharge by doing good, meaningful, even productive things. Maybe for you it’s baking a pie or organizing a closet.(一旦你不再专注于你应该做的事情，花点时间做一些有益的、有意义的、甚至是有成效 的事情来充电。也许对你来说， 它是烤馅饼或整理壁橱)”可知， 本段承接上文， 放下应该做的事， 去做有意 义的事， 所以 G 项“Just follow your heart and do it for the day(跟着自己的心走， 今天就去做吧)”符合文意。故
选 G 项。
40 ．根据前文“It can be tempting to rush through an uncertain situation and try to make it seem certain—to leap ahead to what might be next or try to find reasons for things.(匆忙处理一个不确定的情况， 并试图让它看起来是 确定的——跃进到下一个可能发生的事情或试图为事情寻找原因)”以及后文“Things are just hard.(事情就是很 艰难)”可知，空处应是一个过渡句，起到承上启下的作用，所以 B 项“Sometimes there isn’t a reason(有时候
没有理由)”符合文意，其中 reason 为同词复现。故选 B 项。

第二节 语法填空（共 10 小题；每小题 1.5 分，满分 15 分）
阅读下面材料，在空白处填入适当的内容(1 个单词)或括号内单词的正确形式。
（2023·河南中牟一中模拟）With roots 56 (date) back thousands of years, Chinese seals (印章) are more than just a unique image; they are symbolic of identity, status, and culture. A Chinese seal is a seal or stamp
used to mark important documents, pieces of art, contracts, or any other item that 57 (require) a signature.
The seal was first created in 221 BC ． The first emperor of China, Qin Shi Huang, ordered his first imperial (皇帝的) seal to be carved using beautiful white jade (玉). 58 (call) the“Xi”, the imperial seal was only used by those in power. It wasn’t until the Ming and Qing dynasties 59 the seal’s usage moved from the imperial to the personal, due to the 60 (expand) of arts. Artists began using a stylized seal carving of their names to mark ownership of their works. 61 (individual) also began using a personalized stamp for
important documents. These non-official stamps were called “Yin” .
62 (typical), the seals are carved into stone, but they can also 63 (make) of wood, bamboo, or bone. Seals are carved in one of two ways: the material is carved away from the character, leaving a red ink outline when used on paper, 64 the character is carved into the material, leaving the character
65 white among a red background.
【答案】
56．dating 57．requires 58．Called 59．that 60．expansion 61．Individuals 62．Typically
63 ．be made 64 ．or 65 ．in
【导语】本文是说明文。文章主要介绍中国印章的发展历史和特征。
56．考查非谓语动词。句意：中国印章的历史可以追溯到几千年前， 它不仅仅是一个独特的图像。date back(追 溯到；回溯至)是 with 复合结构中宾语 roots 的补足语，用非谓语动词，动词 date 和名词 roots 是主动关系，
此处使用现在分词形式。故填 dating。
57 ．考查动词时态语态和主谓一致。句意：中国印章是在重要文件、艺术品、合同或任何其他需要签名的 物品上标记的印章或印记。require(需要)是定语从句中谓语动词，与主语 that(即先行词 any other item)之间 是主动关系，陈述客观事实，应使用一般现在时态，又因主语是单数名词，所以谓语动词也应使用单数形
式。综上，谓语应用一般现在时的主动语态，单数形式。故填 requires。
58 ．考查非谓语动词。句意：被称为“ 玺” 的玺印，只有当权者才能使用。分析句子可知，call(给 …… 取名； 称呼)是非谓语动词，与其逻辑主语 the imperial seal 之间是被动关系，用过去分词表被动，作状语；句首单
词首字母大写。故填 Called。
59 ．考查强调句。句意：直到明清两朝，由于艺术的发展，印章的使用才从宫廷转移到个人。 not...until...是
固定句型，意为“直到 ……才 ……” ，其强调句型为：It + is/was not until...+ that + 句子其它部分。分析句子
可知，句中使用了该强调句型，强调的是原句时间状语“not until the Ming and Qing dynasties”，句子其它部
分只能由 that 引出。故填 that。
60 ．考查名词。句意：直到明清两朝，由于艺术的发展，印章的使用才从宫廷转移到个人。结合句意和空 格前定冠词 the 可知， 提示词在句中作宾语， 用名词 expansion， 意为“ 发展” ，为不可数名词。故填
expansion。
61 ．考查名词的数。句意：个人也开始在重要文件上使用个性化的印记。可数名词 individual 在句中作主语，
结合句意，这里的个人包含很多个个体，是复数概念；句首单词首字母大写。故填 Individuals。
62 ．考查副词。句意：通常，印章被雕刻成石头，但它们也可以由木头、竹子或骨头制成。提示词在句中
作状语，用副词 typically，意为“一般，通常” ；句首单词首字母大写。故填 Typically。
63．考查动词语态。句意：通常， 印章被雕刻成石头， 但它们也可以由木头、竹子或骨头制成。提示词 make 是分句谓语动词，与主语 they 之间是被动关系，在情态动词 can 后助动词用原形 be；be made of...“ 由 ……
制成” 。故填 be made。
64 ．考查连词。句意：印章有两种雕刻方式：除文字外的材料被雕走，在纸上使用时留下文字的红色墨水 轮廓，或者将文字雕刻到材料上，在红色的背景中留下白色的文字。根据“Seals are carved in one of two ways”可知，印章有两种雕刻方式；结合句意，空格前和空格后分别介绍了这两种方式，这两种方式是选择
关系，用连词 or 连接。故填 or。
65 ．考查介词。句意：印章有两种雕刻方式：除文字外的材料被雕走，在纸上使用时留下文字的红色的墨 水轮廓，或者将文字雕刻到材料上，在红色的背景中留下白色的文字。根据句意，句中指让文字保持白色，
用介词 in 表示“处于……状态” ；in white“白色的” 。故填 in。

第二节 读后续写（共 1 小题，满分 25 分）
67 ．（2023·广东珠海一中二模） 阅读下面材料， 根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段， 使之构成一篇完整
的短文。
Most of us never forget the person that was there for us in our darkest times. Apparently, penguins ( 企鹅)
don’t either.
On a typical day, off the coast of a small Brazilian island, Joao Pereira de Souza headed out fishing. He was disheartened to find that an oil leak had polluted the waters. Staring out at the oily waves, he decided it was not a
good day to fish. But walking on the beach that day, he found a struggling penguin, covered in oil and starving.
Joao took the penguin home, and spent a whole week gently cleaning it and nursing it back to health. He named it Dindim, a Portuguese word meaning “ice pop”. Dindim is a Magellanic penguin, a species known for living in the seas of South America. In order to breed ( 繁殖), they must return to Patagonia, 5,000 miles from
Joao’s home.
After a week of rehabilitation (康复), Joao patiently took Dindim back to the sea and taught it how to swim again. When Dindim could swim quite well, Joao took it out into the sea by boat and dropped it off to encourage it to swim back to its home. But when he was back to shore, he found the penguin waiting for him. Joao made two more attempts later, but each time the bird would just return to Joao’s home. It seemed that Dindim had already
formed a family bond with Joao and wouldn’t leave.
Joao had no choice but to keep the little creature. During the following months, Dindim would follow behind Joao to fish on the coast joyfully. Dindim also liked to lie on Joao’s lap, letting Joao give it showers, allowing Joao to feed it fish and to pick it up. Joao and his family enjoyed the company of Dindim. But deep inside Joao’s heart,
he knew Dindim belonged to the wild. Gradually, the hot summer days witnessed the change of its new feathers.
Was it time to say “goodbye”

A few months later, Joao heard some familiar cries in his backyard.
____________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】
Suddenly one morning, Joao found Dindim disappeared. “Has it really left ” Joao wondered, his mind mixing with sorrow and joy. In order to breed, he knew that Dindim had to go back, but it still made him heartbroken. Looking at the empty nest, he refused to leave. After a while, he bent down, picked up a few feathers from the ground, and turned back to the room. When putting the feather into a jar, he said to himself, “Fine, it’s finally
grown up.”
A few months later, Joao heard some familiar cries in his backyard. He hurriedly ran to the backyard. What caught his eyes were a group of penguins looking around! One even staggered up to him and looked up at him, as if asking, “Old friend, do you remember me ” It was Dindim! He quickly bent down, gently stroking its feathers. Later, these penguins lived there for a while and left some beautiful memories. So, just like Dindim, a penguin
remembering who saved it when in trouble, let’s always be grateful.
【导语】本文以故事发展为线索展开，讲述了 Joao 出海打渔时救助了被油污污染且饥饿的小企鹅 Dindim， 他把小企鹅带回家悉心照顾，使它恢复健康，茁壮成长。但因为需要繁衍，小企鹅必须回到自己原先居住
的地方。有一天它突然离开了。Joao 虽然深知这是必然，还是很难过。过了几个月，让人意料不到的是这
只企鹅竟然回到了 Joao 的家里，因此本文呈现了一个小企鹅心怀感恩的故事。
【详解】
1.段落续写：
①由第一段首句内容“ 突然有一天早上，Joao 发现 Dindim 不见了。”可知，第一段可描写 Joao 发现企鹅离
开之后的场景和心情。
②由第二段首句内容“几个月后， Joao 听到自家后院有一些熟悉的叫喊声。 ”可知，第二段可描写企鹅 Dindim
重新回到 Joao 家里的场景。
2.续写线索：救助 Dindim——照顾养育 Dindim——Dindim 离开——Joao 很不舍——Dindim 回到 Joao 家——
感悟
3.词汇激活
行为类
①.心想： wander/guess
②. 回到： turn back to /return to
