If you’re heading out to the mountains tomorrow, please remember to dress warmly to avoid getting sick. Next Monday is going to be a lot warmer, so maybe then would be a good time to take the family out. Well. we’ll go back to the news room now for a look at what’s happening in sports, and stay tuned for a speech from the president this afternoon at 5: 00 pm. Take care, folks!

Charging time: 2 hours
Type D
The makers take the already successful earphones pros and upgrade nearly every aspect in the second generation. Sound is crisp and clear, whether listening to music or podcasts, or while on a call. The portable case also gets an upgrade.
Battery life (playtime) : 6 hours
Charging time: 1 hour

There’s one patient that Sarah Rose Black still thinks about. Back in 2019, the nursing team at Toronto’s Cancer Center called to ask if she could reach out to a patient who had been there for about a week. The man was struggling, and unwilling to communicate with the workers or be part of any activities.
Black isn’t a doctor or a nurse. Since 2013 she has played an important role for patients at the center as a music therapist (治疗专家). On any day, she might see one person who’s anxious about an operation, another who’s in need of a calm moment.
So, Black walked into the patient’s room and introduced herself. She asked if she could sit and offer to play some music. In an effort to persuade him, she said, “If you don’t like it, you can just tell me to leave.” After some gentle urging, the man in his 70s, who had lung cancer, told her a few musicians he liked and then turned away to look out the window. But as she started to play one of his favorites, a change came over him. He turned towards Black and started to cry.
She stopped playing. “Do you want me to continue ” “Certainly,” he said through tears. “It was as if the music reached places that nothing else could,” recalls Black. The music showed up at a moment when it felt like a hug.
As Sarah Rose Black says, people have been connecting with music for their whole lives— she is just helping them use it again at a time when they need it most.
“We have a heartbeat, so we have a drum (鼓) inside us; we are wired to be musical people,” she says. She smiles softly as she reflects back on the experience.
24. Why did the nursing team call Black
A. They wanted her to help a patient.
B. She worked as a nurse in the center.
C. A struggling patient hoped to meet her.
D. They wanted to enjoy her music.
25. What happened when Black played the patient’s favorite
A. The patient was moved to tears.
B. She gave the patient a warm hug.
C. She was asked to stop playing.
D. The patient looked out of the window.
26. What does the underlined sentence “we are wired to be musical people”mean in the lastparagraph
A. We can live without music. B. We like playing the drum.
C. We are born to be musicians. D. We need musical instruments.
27. Which of the following can best describe Black
A. Strong and talented. B. Intelligent and honest.
C. Thoughtful and helpful. D. Hardworking and humorous.
【答案】24. A 25. A 26. C 27. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了一位音乐治疗专家Sarah Rose Black如何通过音乐帮助一位癌症患者走出困境的故事。
【24题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第一段“There’s one patient that Sarah Rose Black still thinks about. Back in 2019, the nursing team at Toronto’s Cancer Center called to ask if she could reach out to a patient who had been there for about a week. The man was struggling, and unwilling to communicate with the workers or be part of any activities. (有一个病人Sarah Rose Black至今还念念不忘。早在2019年，多伦多癌症中心的护理团队就打电话问她是否可以联系到一位已经在那里呆了大约一周的病人。这名男子很痛苦，不愿与工人沟通，也不愿参加任何活动。)”可知，多伦多癌症中心的护理团队打电话给Sarah Rose Black是希望她能帮助一位痛苦的病人。故选A。
【25题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第三段“After some gentle urging, the man in his 70s, who had lung cancer, told her a few musicians he liked and then turned away to look out the window. But as she started to play one of his favorites, a change came over him. He turned towards Black and started to cry.(这位70多岁的老人患有肺癌，在她温和的催促下，他告诉了她几首他喜欢的音乐，然后转身向窗外望去。但是，当她开始演奏他最喜欢的曲子时，他发生了变化。他转向布莱克，哭了起来。)”可知，当Black开始演奏这位病人最喜欢的曲子时，这位病人感动落泪了。故选A。
【26题详解】
词句猜测题。根据划线句子前一句“We have a heartbeat, so we have a drum (鼓)inside us(我们有心跳，所以我们体内有鼓)”可知，我们生来就有心跳，所以我们自带着鼓，由此可推测，划线句子指的是我们天生就是音乐家。故选C。
【27题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第二段“Black isn’t a doctor or a nurse. Since 2013 she has played an important role for patients at the center as a music therapist(治疗专家).( Black既不是医生也不是护士。自2013年以来，她作为音乐治疗师在该中心为患者发挥了重要作用。)”可知，Black是一个愿意帮助别人的人；再根据文章第三段“So, Black walked into the patient’s room and introduced herself. She asked if she could sit and offer to play some music. In an effort to persuade him, she said, “If you don’t like it, you can just tell me to leave.”(于是，Black走进病人的房间，做了自我介绍。她问她是否可以坐下来演奏一些音乐。为了说服他，她说：“如果你不喜欢，你可以让我离开。”)”以及第四段“She stopped playing. “Do you want me to continue ”(她停止了演奏。“你想让我继续吗？”)”可知，Black非常体贴。故选C。
C
A famous company’s leader believes there’s only one way to know if you truly understand a subject: Can you explain it to a child But the man with lifelong love of math recently found it didn’t always go well when he tried explaining mathematical concepts(概念)to his then-school-aged children.
He thinks that learning with kids to see what’s puzzling to them and what’s easy for them are the final test of whether you know a topic—whether you can explain it.
Teachers often ask students to give a statement on a subject to show that they understand it. Studies show that people are more likely to remember and understand concepts they’ve learned after explaining them to someone else or even to themselves.That means you can testyour own knowledge in a subject simply by trying to teach it to a friend,to see both how much information you’ve kept and how well you actually understand its concepts. If they successfully learn from you, it’s a good sign that you’re on the right track.
The leader who studied math and computer science at university, noted that while hewas personally good at math as a high school student, he had trouble passing that enthusiasm(热情)to his three kids.
He loves doing math, but in the past his younger daughter would always say that he made it so complicated (复杂的) and he didn’t need to explain this to her. Because she just wanted to know the answer.
Today, his three children are all in their 20s.While they may not have enjoyed the math lessons, he says that one of his favorite things is teaching calculus(微积分)to the kids.There are a few very difficult concepts in calculus.He must explain why calculus is so important and why calculus has those funny symbols. It’s crazy and it’s probably the thing he enjoys the most.
28. What happened to the leader recently
A. He explained Chinese well.
B. He developed his lifelong love of math.
C. He met a challenge in playing with his kids.
D. He had trouble explaining mathematical concepts to his kids.
29. What does the author encourage people to do in paragraph 3
A. Communicate with others actively.
B. Build relationship with others.
C. Manage to describe themselves.
D. Know about their own learning by teaching others.
30. What did the leader’s younger daughter care about
A. Describing an example. B. Learning with her father.
C. Getting the final answer. D. Keeping enthusiasm high.
31. What does the leader think of his teaching calculus to his children
A. It brings him happiness. B. It helps his kids grow.
C. It gives him a lesson. D. It improves his maths.
【答案】28. D 29. D 30. C 31. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是说明文。文章通过一个著名公司的领导人的想法：想要理解一个科目，就把介绍给孩子们，解释了人们在向别人甚至自己解释后，更有可能记住和理解他们所学到的概念。
【28题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段的“But the man with lifelong love of math recently found it didn’t always go well when he tried explaining mathematical concepts(概念)to his then-school-aged children.(但这位毕生热爱数学的人最近发现，当他试图向当时还在上学的孩子们解释数学概念时，并不总是很顺利。)”可知，这位领导发现他很难向孩子们解释数学概念。故选D。
【29题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段内容“Studies show that people are more likely to remember and understand concepts they’ve learned after explaining them to someone else or even to themselves. That means you can test your own knowledge in a subject simply by trying to teach it to a friend, to see both how much information you’ve kept and how well you actually understand its concepts. If they successfully learn from you, it’s a good sign that you’re on the right track.(研究表明，人们在向别人甚至自己解释后，更有可能记住和理解他们所学到的概念。这意味着你可以通过简单地把某一学科的知识教给朋友来测试你自己的知识，看看你掌握了多少信息，以及你对概念的实际理解程度。如果他们成功地向你学习，这是一个好迹象，表明你走在正确的道路上。)”可知，作者鼓励通过教别人了解自己的学习。故选D。
【30题详解】
细节理解题。根据倒数第二段的“He loves doing math, but in the past his younger daughter would always say that he made it so complicated(复杂的)and he didn’t need to explain this to her. Because she just wanted to know the answer.(他喜欢做数学，但在过去，他的小女儿总是说他把数学弄得那么复杂，他不需要向她解释。因为她只是想知道答案。)”可知，作者的小女儿在乎的只是最终的答案。故选C。
【31题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段的“he says that one of his favorite things is teaching calculus(微积分)to the kids. There are a few very difficult concepts in calculus. He must explain why calculus is so important and why calculus has those funny symbols. It’s crazy and it’s probably the thing he enjoys the most.(他说他最喜欢的事情之一就是教孩子们微积分。微积分中有几个非常难的概念。他必须解释为什么微积分如此重要，为什么微积分有那些有趣的符号。这太疯狂了，这可能是他最喜欢的事情。)”可知，这个领导人认为教孩子们微积分给他带来快乐。故选A。
D
The design of the Paris 2024 Olympic and Paralympic torch (火炬) was shown on July 25, marking almost a year until the opening ceremony (典礼) of the Paris Olympic Games.
The torch, measuring 70 centimeters and weighing 3.3 pounds, is made with lightweight radiant steel and is known for its champagne color, a color of French white wine.
Mathieu Lehanneur, the designer of the torch said that he drew inspiration from three Paris 2024 symbols-equality, water and peacefulness. Equality is shown by perfect balance. Peacefulness is shown by the gentleness of the curves. The lower half features a relief pattern that copies the movement of the River Seine, along which the opening ceremony will be held.
It will be the first torch in the history of the Games to be used for both the Olympics and Paralympics. Past designs have shared similarities but are different in shape and color. This is part of the organizing committee’s plan to “build bridges between the Olympic and Paralympic Games”, Paris 2024’s president Tony Estanguet said in a statement.
Equality means putting the same ambition into organising the Paralympic Games as the Olympic Games. Following on from the medals to the mascots, the Olympic and Paralympic Games will share the same torch design.
Equality in the Paris 2024 project is also reflected in the strong promise to equality in the Olympic Games: For the first time in the history of the Games, as many women as men will take part in the competitions. Reflecting this desire for peace, the torch, with its curves and rounded lines, is filled with gentleness. The design of the torch delivers generosity and unity.
“Such a project is a dream for a designer, because it’s a project that connects something symbolic and technical in one, for a big moment,” Lehanneur said.
32. What is paragraph 3 mainly about
A. The shape of the torch.
B. The inspiration of the torch.
C. The ceremony of the Games.
D. The location of the opening ceremony.
33. What is special about the torch
A. It is very heavy.
B. It is perfect in shape.
C. It copies the movement of the River Seine
D. It will be used in the Olympics and Paralympics
34. What can we infer from what Lehanneur said in the last paragraph
A. He had a passion for sports.
B. He wanted to be a well-known designer.
C. He felt a sense of achievement and pride.
D. He wished to connect everything together.
35. What can be the best title for the text
A. A designer realized his dream B. Inspiration of the 2024 Games
C. Paris 2024 showed torch design D. Equality, water and peacefulness
【答案】32. B 33. D 34. C 35. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。主要介绍了巴黎2024年奥运会和残奥会火炬的设计和意义。
【32题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第三段“Mathieu Lehanneur,the designer of the torch said that he drew inspiration from three Paris 2024 symbols-equality, water and peacefulness. Equality is shown by perfect balance. Peacefulness is shown by the gentleness of the curves. The lower half features a relief pattern that copies the movement of the River Seine, along which the opening ceremony will be held.(火炬设计师Mathieu Lehanneur表示，他的灵感来自2024年巴黎奥运会的三个象征——平等、水和和平。完美的平衡是平等的表现。柔和的曲线显示出宁静。下半部分的浮雕图案模仿了塞纳河的运动，开幕式将沿着塞纳河举行)”可知，本段主要讲述了巴黎奥运火炬的灵感来源。故选B项。
【33题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段“It will be the first torch in the history of the Games to be used for both the Olympics and Paralympics.(这将是奥运会历史上第一个同时在奥运会和残奥会上使用的火炬)”可知，巴黎奥运火炬特别之处是它将用于奥运会和残奥会。故选D项。
【34题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段““Such a project is a dream for a designer, because it’s a project that connects something symbolic and technical in one, for a big moment,” Lehanneur said.(Lehanneur说：“这样的项目是设计师的梦想，因为它是一个将象征和技术联系在一起的项目，在一个重要的时刻。”)”可知，对于能设计奥运火炬，他感到一种成就感和自豪感，故选C项。
【35题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段“The design of the Paris 2024 Olympic and Paralympic torch (火炬) was shown on July 25, marking almost a year until the opening ceremony (典礼) of the Paris Olympic Games.(巴黎2024年奥运会和残奥会火炬的设计于7月25日展出，距离巴黎奥运会开幕式还有近一年的时间)”以及纵观全文可知，本文主要讲述了巴黎2024年奥运会和残奥会火炬的设计和意义，所以C项“Paris 2024 showed torch design(巴黎2024年展示了火炬设计)”是本文最好的标题。故选C项。

Black isn’t a doctor or a nurse. Since 2013 she has played an important role for patients at the center as a music therapist (治疗专家). On any day, she might see one person who’s anxious about an operation, another who’s in need of a calm moment.
So, Black walked into the patient’s room and introduced herself. She asked if she could sit and offer to play some music. In an effort to persuade him, she said, “If you don’t like it, you can just tell me to leave.” After some gentle urging, the man in his 70s, who had lung cancer, told her a few musicians he liked and then turned away to look out the window. But as she started to play one of his favorites, a change came over him. He turned towards Black and started to cry.
She stopped playing. “Do you want me to continue ” “Certainly,” he said through tears. “It was as if the music reached places that nothing else could,” recalls Black. The music showed up at a moment when it felt like a hug.
As Sarah Rose Black says, people have been connecting with music for their whole lives— she is just helping them use it again at a time when they need it most.
“We have a heartbeat, so we have a drum (鼓) inside us; we are wired to be musical people,” she says. She smiles softly as she reflects back on the experience.

A famous company’s leader believes there’s only one way to know if you truly understand a subject: Can you explain it to a child But the man with lifelong love of math recently found it didn’t always go well when he tried explaining mathematical concepts(概念)to his then-school-aged children.
He thinks that learning with kids to see what’s puzzling to them and what’s easy for them are the final test of whether you know a topic—whether you can explain it.
Teachers often ask students to give a statement on a subject to show that they understand it. Studies show that people are more likely to remember and understand concepts they’ve learned after explaining them to someone else or even to themselves.That means you can testyour own knowledge in a subject simply by trying to teach it to a friend,to see both how much information you’ve kept and how well you actually understand its concepts. If they successfully learn from you, it’s a good sign that you’re on the right track.
The leader, who studied math and computer science at university, noted that while hewas personally good at math as a high school student, he had trouble passing that enthusiasm(热情)to his three kids.
He loves doing math, but in the past his younger daughter would always say that he made it so complicated (复杂的) and he didn’t need to explain this to her. Because she just wanted to know the answer.
Today, his three children are all in their 20s.While they may not have enjoyed the math lessons, he says that one of his favorite things is teaching calculus(微积分)to the kids.There are a few very difficult concepts in calculus.He must explain why calculus is so important and why calculus has those funny symbols. It’s crazy and it’s probably the thing he enjoys the most.
28. What happened to the leader recently
A. He explained Chinese well.
B. He developed his lifelong love of math.
C. He met a challenge in playing with his kids.
D. He had trouble explaining mathematical concepts to his kids.
29. What does the author encourage people to do in paragraph 3
A. Communicate with others actively.
B. Build relationship with others.
C. Manage to describe themselves.
D. Know about their own learning by teaching others.
30. What did the leader’s younger daughter care about
A. Describing an example. B. Learning with her father.
C. Getting the final answer. D. Keeping enthusiasm high.
31. What does the leader think of his teaching calculus to his children
A. It brings him happiness. B. It helps his kids grow.
C. It gives him a lesson. D. It improves his maths.
D
The design of the Paris 2024 Olympic and Paralympic torch (火炬) was shown on July 25, marking almost a year until the opening ceremony (典礼) of the Paris Olympic Games.
The torch, measuring 70 centimeters and weighing 3.3 pounds, is made with lightweight radiant steel and is known for its champagne color, a color of French white wine.
Mathieu Lehanneur, the designer of the torch said that he drew inspiration from three Paris 2024 symbols-equality, water and peacefulness. Equality is shown by perfect balance. Peacefulness is shown by the gentleness of the curves. The lower half features a relief pattern that copies the movement of the River Seine, along which the opening ceremony will be held.
It will be the first torch in the history of the Games to be used for both the Olympics and Paralympics. Past designs have shared similarities but are different in shape and color. This is part of the organizing committee’s plan to “build bridges between the Olympic and Paralympic Games”, Paris 2024’s president Tony Estanguet said in a statement.
Equality means putting the same ambition into organising the Paralympic Games as the Olympic Games. Following on from the medals to the mascots, the Olympic and Paralympic Games will share the same torch design.
Equality in the Paris 2024 project is also reflected in the strong promise to equality in the Olympic Games: For the first time in the history of the Games, as many women as men will take part in the competitions. Reflecting this desire for peace, the torch, with its curves and rounded lines, is filled with gentleness. The design of the torch delivers generosity and unity.
“Such a project is a dream for a designer, because it’s a project that connects something symbolic and technical in one, for a big moment,” Lehanneur said.
32. What is paragraph 3 mainly about
A. The shape of the torch.
B. The inspiration of the torch.
C. The ceremony of the Games.
D. The location of the opening ceremony.
33. What is special about the torch
A. It is very heavy.
B. It is perfect in shape.
C. It copies the movement of the River Seine
D. It will be used in the Olympics and Paralympics
34. What can we infer from what Lehanneur said in the last paragraph
A. He had a passion for sports.
B. He wanted to be a well-known designer.
C. He felt a sense of achievement and pride.
D. He wished to connect everything together.
35. What can be the best title for the text
A. A designer realized his dream B. Inspiration of the 2024 Games
C. Paris 2024 showed torch design D. Equality, water and peacefulness
