Who signed the Charter for the Third Millennium on Disability A. Doctors.B. Governments.C. Hawking and 11 other stars.【答案】17. A 18. B 19. C 20. C【解析】【原文】Stephen Hawking was a world famous scientist, speaker, teacher, and author. His wheelchair and the special machine he used to talk made him easy to recognize. Hawking had a rare disease that started young and developed slowly. In 1963, Hawking was told he had health problems. Hawking was 21, and the doctors thought he might live for two more years. But Hawking never gave up. Even after he lost the power of speech, and later, the use of his arms and legs, Hawking was determined not to let that illness destroy his mind as well. Hawking was a member of the Royal Society of Arts and the Pontifical Academy of Sciences. He also received the Presidential Medal of Freedom, the highest award given in the United States. Starting in the 1990s, Hawking accepted that he was a role model for disabled people, giving lectures and raising money. At the turn of the century, he and 11 other stars signed the Charter for the Third Millennium on Disability, which called on governments to protect the rights of the disabled. No wonder Hawking was voted as the 25th most important British person in history.第二部分 阅读理解（共两节，满分50分）第一节（共15小题；每小题2. 5分，满分37. 5分）阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中选出最佳选项。并在答题卡上将该选项涂黑AThe new Lively Flip from the makers of Jitterbug The new Lively Flip makes it easy to call, text, and helps you stay safe and healthy.EASY TO USEA large screen, big buttons and list-based menu make the Lively Flip an easy way to stay connected to friends and family.

Chemist Carolyn Bertozzi is one of them. Her discovery of biorthogonal chemistry (生物正交化学) in 2003 created a brand-new discipline of scientific investigation, which has enabled countless advances in medical science and led to a far greater understanding of biology at a molecular (分子的) level. On October 5, Bertozzi was awarded the Nobel Prize in Chemistry, jointly with two other professors. She is also the only woman to be awarded a Nobel Prize in science this year, after an all-male line-up in 2021.Bertozzi was the middle daughter of an MIT physics professor and a secretary. Few predicted that Bertozzi would be the most famous person in the family. While her academic performance was not bad in high school, she was fond of playing soccer. She end ed up being admitted to Harvard University. Despite her talent in soccer, she found it too time-consuming and quit the sport to devote herself to academics.But before becoming a rock star scientist, Bertozzi almost became an actual rock star. When she started at Harvard, she was tempted to major in music. That idea was “unpopular” with her parents, and she was timid about defying them. Instead, she chose the premed (医学预科的) track that included classes in math and sciences, and declared herself a biology major at the end of her first year of college.Her interest in music did not completely fall by the wayside, however. Bertozzi played keyboards and sang backup vocals for a hair metal band. Bertozzi, however, did not play with the band for long. Once the band’s practices and performances conflicted with her labs and classes, there was only one outcome.Plus, she’d soon have organic chemistry to think about a course which is infamous for weeding out pre-meds. Without any clear career ambitions up to that point, Bertozzi had been thinking about possibly becoming a doctor when, in her sophomore year (大二学年), she suddenly fell so head over heels in love with her chemistry course that she couldn’t tear herself away from her textbooks long enough to go out on Saturday nights. A torture to many was pure pleasure for her. Bertozzi changed her major from biology to chemistry a year later.Bertozzi has sometimes joked about her having missed out on her chance to follow Morello to LosAngeles. “I didn’t get on that bus, and my playing is now limited to ‘The Wheel s on the Bus Go Round,’ I’m waiting for my sons to get old enough to appreciate 1980s heavy metal!”24. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage A. Bertozzi is one of those scientists who made significant new discoveries.B. Bertozzi was the only female to win a Nobel Prize in science in 2021.C. Bertozzi played keyboards and sang backup vocals throughout her college years.D. Bertozzi initially planned to become a doctor.25. The underlined word in Para 3 means ________.A. tell B. disobey C. approach D. threaten26. The organic chemistry course Bertozzi took was known to be ________.A. easy and enjoyableB. difficult to pass for pre-med studentsC. popular among hair metal band playersD. a required course for all college students27. What kind of person do you think Carolyn Bertozzi is A. Brave and sympathetic.B. Athletic and critical.C. Humble and passionate.D. Talented and creative.【答案】24. D 25. B 26. B 27. D【解析】【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章主要介绍了化学家Carolyn Bertozzi在科学领域的突破性发现和成就以及她的个人生活和兴趣。【24题详解】细节理解题。根据倒数第三段的“Without any clear career ambitions up to that point, Bertozzi had been thinking about possibly becoming a doctor.(在那之前，Bertozzi没有任何明确的职业抱负，她一直在考虑是否要成为一名医生)”可知，Bertozzi最初计划成为一名医生。故选D。【25题详解】词句猜测题。根据划线词所在的句子及前后文“When she started at Harvard, she was tempted to major in music. That idea was “unpopular” with her parents, and she was timid about defying them. Instead, she chose the premed track that included classes in math and sciences, and declared herself a biology major at the end of her first year of college.(刚进入哈佛大学时，她想主修音乐。这个想法在她父母那里“不受欢迎”，她不敢defying他们。相反，她选择了包括数学和科学课程的医学预科课程，并在大学一年级结束时宣布自己的专业是生物学) ”可知，父母不同意她主修音乐，她转而选择了医学预科直至生物学，看得出她不敢违背父母的想法，因此划线词的意思是“违背”。故选B。【26题详解】细节理解题。根据倒数第二段的“Plus, she’d soon have organic chemistry to think about a course which is infamous for weeding out pre-meds. (而且，她很快就要上有机化学课了，这门课因淘汰预科生而臭名昭著)”可知，Bertozzi所上的有机化学课程对于医学预科学生很难通过。故选B。【27题详解】推理判断题。根据第一段的“Her discovery of biorthogonal chemistry in 2003 created a brand-new discipline of scientific investigation, which has enabled countless advances in medical science and led to a far greater understanding of biology at a molecular level.(她在2003年发现的生物正交化学创造了一个全新的科学研究学科，使医学科学取得了无数进步，并在分子水平上对生物学有了更深入的了解)”可推知，Bertozzi开创了新的研究领域，看得出她是有创造力的；根据“She is also the only woman to be awarded a Nobel Prize in science this year, after an all-male line-up in 2021.(她也是今年唯一一位获得诺贝尔科学奖的女性，而2021年的获奖者都是男性)”可推知，Bertozzi是有才华的。故选D。CThe challenge of storing energy year-round has been one of the biggest obstacles to the widespread adoption of green power. However, Polar Night Energy has developed the world’s first fully functional commercial sand battery, which could offer a low-cost, eco-friendly solution to the storage problem. It is the first commercial sand battery in the world, and it was built in Kankaanpaa, Finland in 2022.Dr. Natalia Schiff, expert of Polar Night Energy, says that sand battery works by heating sand up to high temperatures (at around 500℃) using renewable energy, such as solar or wind power. The hot sand can then be stored for months or even years, and then discharged to provide heat or electricity when needed.The Polar Night sand battery has a capacity of8 megawatt hours (MWh) of thermal (热量的) energy, and it can discharge about 200 kilowatts (kW)of power. This means that it can provide heat for about 4,000 homes for a day, or it can generate enough electricity to power about 100 homes for a day.Sand battery is relatively inexpensive to build, and it is compatible (兼容的) with a wide range of renewable energy sources. It also can be built in larger sizes to store more energy, which is a promising new technology for storing renewable energy.Sand batteries could be a valuable tool to combat climate change. They could help to make renewable energy more reliable and available, which would reduce our reliance on fossil fuels. They could also be used to provide heat in areas that are not connected to the electricity.As the world transitions to a clean energy future, sand batteries could play an important role in helping to balance the energy and ensuring that we have a reliable source of energy when we need it.28. What is the characteristic of sand battery A. Costly and demanding. B. Cheap and clean.C. Costly and imaginary. D. Cheap but polluting.29. What does Dr. Natalia Schiff tell us A. Working model of sand battery.B. Statistical method of the research.C. Theoretical basis of making batteries.D. Historical analysis of renewable energy.30. What does the underlined word “combat” in paragraph 5 mean A. Comfort. B. Commit. C. Fight for. D. Fight against.31. What is the author’s attitude toward sand battery A Unclear. B. Dismissive. C. Doubtful. D. Favorable.【答案】28. B 29. A 30. D 31. D【解析】【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了沙电池的工作原理、优点以及在应对气候变化和能源平衡方面的应用前景。【28题详解】细节理解题。根据第一段“However, Polar Night Energy has developed the world’s first fully functional commercial sand battery, which could offer a low-cost, eco-friendly solution to the storage problem.(然而，Polar Night Energy公司已经开发出了世界上第一个功能齐全的商用沙电池，它可以为储存问题提供低成本、环保的解决方案)”可知，沙电池可以为储存问题提供低成本、环保的解决方案，所以它的特点是便宜又干净。故选B项。【29题详解】细节理解题。根据第二段“Dr. Natalia Schiff, expert of Polar Night Energy, says that sand battery works by heating sand up to high temperatures (at around 500℃) using renewable energy, such as solar or wind power. The hot sand can then be stored for months or even years, and then discharged to provide heat or electricity when needed.(Polar Night Energy专家娜塔莉亚·希夫博士说，沙电池的工作原理是利用太阳能或风能等可再生能源将沙子加热到高温(约500℃)。然后，热砂可以储存数月甚至数年，然后在需要时排放以提供热量或电力)”可知，娜塔莉亚·希夫博士说的是沙电池的工作原理，也就是沙电池的工作模型。故选A项。【30题详解】词句猜测题。根据划线词后文“They could help to make renewable energy more reliable and available, which would reduce our reliance on fossil fuels.(它们有助于使可再生能源更加可靠和可用，从而减少我们对化石燃料的依赖)”可知，沙电池有助于使可再生能源更加可靠和可用，从而减少我们对化石燃料的依赖，也就能对抗气候变化。由此推知，划线词combat意为“对抗”，和D项Fight against意思相近。故填D项。【31题详解】推理判断题。根据最后一段“As the world transitions to a clean energy future, sand batteries could play an important role in helping to balance the energy and ensuring that we have a reliable source of energy when we need it.(随着世界向清洁能源的未来过渡，沙电池可以在帮助平衡能源和确保我们在需要时拥有可靠的能源来源方面发挥重要作用)”可知，作者认为沙电池可以发挥重要作用。由此推知，对沙电池的态度是赞同的。故选D项。DJust as with any other subject, people who learn sign language are learning a new skill and using their brains to do this, thus expanding their minds in a new field.A research has been carried out which proves that deaf children who learn sign language at an early age are more likely to do well academically. This is partly due to their increased ability to communicate with those around them. However, it is also because sign language is not, as many people mistakenly think, a system of gestures representing words, but a complicated language system, just as the English which is used in this article. Thus, children who learn sign language have already learn about the way language works and is made up, which will help in future studies especially if they decide to learn to speak English, or any other spoken language.A deaf child who can use sign language develops a sense of identity. This will lead to a happier and more confident child because they know their place in the world is secure.Again, for non-deaf children and adults who learn sign language, the academic advantages spread into social and cultural ones. Learning a language gives rise to greater confidence for those people, as they are able to communicate with someone whose peers may struggle to do so. And the skills of language learning are easily transferable into learning other languages but also into other academic pursuits.There can be no doubt that learning sigh languages is a useful attempt for anyone — whether they are deaf or non-deaf. The social and cultural advantages should not be taken lightly. And, especially with children, learning a language which helps people with a disadvantage may encourage them in the future to do more volunteering and other such work. They can be taught to hug all people regardless of their differences.32. What is the second paragraph mainly about A. Academic advantages of deaf kids learning sign language.B. Causes of deaf children learning sign language.C. Approaches to helping deaf children recover.D. Difficulties that deaf children meet in their language study.33. Why does learning sign language make a deaf child happier A. It makes a deaf child more humorous.B. It provides a deaf child with a life without danger.C. It helps a deaf child perform well in building up their body.D. It gives a deaf child a sense of belonging.34. What will a child learning sign language be like in the future A. Extremely intelligent. B. Slightly imperfect.C. Socially responsible. D. Financially successful.35. What is the main purpose of the passage A. To discuss the different purposes for people to learn sign language.B. To show it is important for both deaf children and non-deaf children to learn sign language.C. To call on non-deaf children to learn sign language.D. To attract deaf children to communicate with non-deaf children.【答案】32. A 33. D 34. C 35. B【解析】【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了失聪和听力正常的人学习手语都是有好处的。【32题详解】主旨大意题。根据第二段中“A research has been carried out which proves that deaf children who learn sign language at an early age are more likely to do well academically. (一项研究证明，在很小的时候就学习手语的聋哑人在学业上更容易取得好成绩)”和“Thus, children who learn sign language have already learn about the way language works and is made up, which will help in future studies especially if they decide to learn to speak English, or any other spoken language.(因此，学习手语的孩子已经了解了语言的运作和组成方式，这将有助于未来的学习，特别是如果他们决定学习说英语或任何其他口语)”可知，第二段主要讲失聪孩子学习手语对他们的学业有好处。故选A。【33题详解】细节理解题。根据第三段中“A deaf child who can use sign language develops a sense of identity. This will lead to a happier and more confident child because they know their place in the world is secure.(一个会使用手语的失聪孩子会培养出一种认同感。这将带来一个更快乐、更自信的孩子，因为他们知道自己所处的世界是安全的)”可知，归属感使学手语的失聪孩子更快乐。故选D。【34题详解】细节理解题。根据最后一段“And, especially with children, learning a language which helps people with a disadvantage may encourage them in the future to do more volunteering and other such work.(而且，尤其是对孩子来说，学习一门有助于弱势群体的语言可能会鼓励他们在未来做更多的志愿服务和其他类似的工作)”可知，听力正常的孩子学习手语在将来会更具有社会责任感。故选C。【35题详解】推理判断题。通读全文，结合第一段中“Just as with any other subject, people who learn sign language are learning a new skill and using their brains to do this, thus expanding their minds in a new field.(就像学习任何其他学科一样，学习手语的人是在学习一项新技能，并利用他们的大脑来完成这项技能，从而在一个新的领域拓展他们的思维)”、第二段中“A research has been carried out which proves that deaf children who learn sign language at an early age are more likely to do well academically.(一项研究证明，在很小的时候就学习手语的聋哑人在学业上更容易取得好成绩)”和第三段中“Again, for non-deaf children and adults who learn sign language, the academic advantages spread into social and cultural ones.(同样，对于学习手语的非聋哑儿童和成人来说，学习上的优势扩展到了社会和文化上)”可推知，本文主要目的是告诉读者对失聪儿童和听力正常的儿童来说，学习手语都很重要。故选B项。第二节（共5小题；每小题2. 5分，满分12. 5分）Who Invented Silk Silk is a thin, yet extremely strong, fiber. It is made from protein that silkworms produce when they make their cocoons. Thousands of years ago, ancient Chinese craftsmen began weaving silk fiber into a soft, smooth fabric. A precious textile, silk was at first reserved for exclusive use by the Chinese imperial court. Chinese officials decided that silk-making methods must remain China’s secret. ____36____The Silky Secret Gets OutHowever, the existence of silk did not remain a secret. On diplomatic visits to neighboring rulers, Chinese envoys carried gifts of silk. By the first century BC, the Romans had become familiar with this exotic(异国情调的)luxury item. ____37____ Western rulers issued edicts (法令)that controlled silk prices. As in China, silk was designated a solely royal fabric. Trading for silk was principal motivation for merchants who searched for routes.From Europe to the Far EastOver the centuries, different main routes developed. ____38____ Tradesmen travelling east or west could choose among routes that crossed many regions of Eastern Europe, the Middle East, Central Asia, and the Far East. ____39____ Trading vessels carried goods from China and Southeast Asia across Indian Ocean to Africa, India, and the Near East. Sea routes even reached Venice, Italy, by crossing the Mediterranean.____40____The Silk Road played an important role in bringing diverse cultures and peoples into contact. To make successful deals, merchants had to learn the languages and customs of the countries they crossed. As they journeyed along the Silk Road, people shared knowledge about arts, crafts, literature, science, and technologies. Over hundreds of years, cultures, languages, and religions influenced one another. Perhaps Chinese silk influenced history more extensively than any single famous person you can name.A. How Silk Changed HistoryB. How Silk Brought People TogetherC. It soon grew wildly popular in the West.D. In addition, sailors discovered sea routes.E.

But, there were many roads, not just one. A German geologist named the trade routes “The Silk Road”.【答案】36. E 37. C 38. F 39. D 40. A【解析】【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了丝绸的发展史和对历史的影响。【36题详解】由上文“Silk is a thin, yet extremely strong, fiber. It is made from protein that silkworms produce when they make their cocoons. Thousands of years ago, ancient Chinese craftsmen began weaving silk fiber into a soft, smooth fabric. A precious textile, silk was at first reserved for exclusive use by the Chinese imperial court. Chinese officials decided that silk-making methods must remain China’s secret. (丝是一种很薄但非常结实的纤维。它是由蚕在结茧时产生的蛋白质制成的。几千年前，中国古代工匠开始将丝绸纤维编织成柔软、光滑的织物。丝绸是一种珍贵的纺织品，最初是中国朝廷专用的。中国官员决定，制丝方法必须保持中国的秘密。)”可知，本空要说跟“如何保持中国的秘密”有关的话题，故E选项“Rulers ordered that anyone who revealed these methods to foreigners would be put to death. (统治者下令，任何向外国人透露这些方法的人都将被处死。)”能承接上文，符合题意。故选E。【37题详解】由上文“However, the existence of silk did not remain a secret. On diplomatic visits to neighboring rulers, Chinese envoys carried gifts of silk. By the first century BC, the Romans had become familiar with this exotic (异国情调的) luxury item. (然而，丝绸的存在并不是一个秘密。在对邻国统治者进行外交访问时，中国使节带着丝绸作为礼物。到公元前一世纪，罗马人已经熟悉了这种异国情调的奢侈品。)”可知，本空要说跟“丝绸在西方的状况”有关的话题，故C选项“It soon grew wildly popular in the West. (它很快在西方广受欢迎。)”能承接上文，符合题意。故选C。【38题详解】由上文“Over the centuries, different main routes developed. (几个世纪以来，不同的主要路线发展起来。)”和后文“Tradesmen travelling east or west could choose among routes that crossed many regions of Eastern Europe, the Middle East, Central Asia, and the Far East. (向东或向西旅行的商人可以选择穿越东欧、中东、中亚和远东许多地区的路线。)”可知，本空要说跟“不同的主要路线”有关的话题，而且本空最后要说路线多，才能贴合下文的从众多路线中选择，故F选项“Later they came to be known as “The Silk Road”, but the word “Road” should have been plural. (后来它们被称为“丝绸之路”，但“路”这个词应该是复数。)”能承上启下，符合题意。故选F。【39题详解】由下文“Trading vessels carried goods from China and Southeast Asia across Indian Ocean to Africa, India, and the Near East. Sea routes even reached Venice, Italy, by crossing the Mediterranean. (商船将货物从中国和东南亚穿过印度洋运往非洲、印度和近东。海上航线甚至穿过地中海到达意大利的威尼斯。)”可知，本空要说跟“海上航线”有关的话题，故D选项“In addition, sailors discovered sea routes. (此外，水手们还发现了海上航线。)”能引起下文，符合题意。故选D。【40题详解】由下文“The Silk Road played an important role in bringing diverse cultures and peoples into contact. To make successful deals, merchants had to learn the languages and customs of the countries they crossed. As they journeyed along the Silk Road, people shared knowledge about arts, crafts, literature, science, and technologies. Over hundreds of years, cultures, languages, and religions influenced one another. Perhaps Chinese silk influenced history more extensively than any single famous person you can name. (丝绸之路在促进不同文化和民族交流方面发挥了重要作用。为了达成成功的交易，商人必须学习他们所穿越国家的语言和习俗。当他们沿着丝绸之路旅行时，人们分享了关于艺术、工艺、文学、科学和技术的知识。几百年来，文化、语言和宗教相互影响。也许中国丝绸对历史的影响比任何一个你能说出名字的名人都要大。)”可知，本段主要讲述了丝绸对历史的影响，故A选项“How Silk Changed History (丝绸如何改变历史)”能涵盖本段主题，符合题意。故选A。第三部分 语言知识运用（共两节，满分30分）第一节 完形填空（共15小题；每小题1分,满分15分）For most of my life I had lived in the black and Latino community.

In the article, various people said that the public should oppose the idea of developing driverless cars. They said that some advances in technology were unnecessary and could even be dangerous. Hence, we should cease accepting technology just because it is new. The newspaper reported that the car company had already apologized for the accident, but the families of the deceased said it was not enough. Nevertheless, the company still claimed that most people would be travelling in driverless cars one day soon.On the one hand, there are many different groups of people around the world who live happily in the absence of new technology. Probably the most well-known are the Amish, a group of Christians living in rural America. They do not own or drive cars, watch TV, or use the Internet. They have lived mainly as farmers since the 18th century and they will probably be living the same way in the distant future. They advocate a simple life with an emphasis on hard work, family, and community. They think that is better than caring about luxuries or following the lives of the rich and famous. It could even be argued that the Amish’s quality of life is better since they live in and appreciate the natural environment rather than living in large, polluted cities.注意：1. 续写段落不少于150个词；2. 请按如下格式作答。参考词汇： the Internet keep in touch social media health monitorParagraph 1:On the other hand, new technology has provided people everywhere with many benefits over the years.

For example, the latest weather-tracking computer programs give people lots of warnings about potential natural disasters, which saves many lives. Moreover, the Internet has made it possible for friends and family to keep in touch easily even if they are on opposite sides of the world. It has also made finding opportunities in life much easier, as it allows people to make larger networks of friends through using social media.Personally, I have benefited quite a lot from technological advances. I found my career as an AI designer through a social media network. My health monitor, which I wear all the time, has also helped me get into the best shape of my life. Of course, when new technology changes the way we live, it can be a scary prospect. Nevertheless, I will always look on the positive side of change and accept it rather than resist it.【解析】【导语】本文以“我们应该抵制新技术吗”为线索展开，作者通过无人驾驶汽车发生车祸引起很多人对这项新技术持否定态度引出话题。一方面，有的人确实可以在没有新技术的情况下仍然生活得更好；另一方面新技术也给各地的人们带来了很多好处。【详解】1.段落续写：①由第一段首句内容“另一方面，新技术多年来为世界各地的人们提供了许多好处。例如，”可知，第一段可描写新技术给世界各地带来好处的例子，比如最新的天气跟踪计算机程序给人们许多关于潜在自然灾害的警告。还有互联网，使人们联系子在一起。②由第二段首句内容“就我个人而言，我从技术进步中获益匪浅。”可知，第二段可描写“我”对新技术的看法。2.续写线索：新技术有很多好处——举例子说明——表达“我”对新技术的看法3.词汇激活行为类①保持联系：keep in touch/stay in touch/keep contact②看待：look on/view③抵制：resist/boycott情绪类①吓人的：scary/frightening【点睛】[高分句型1] For example, the latest weather-tracking computer programs give people lots of warnings about potential natural disasters, which saves many lives.（由关系词which引导的非限制性定语从句）[高分句型2] My health monitor, which I wear all the time, has also helped me get into the best shape of my life.（由关系词which引导的非限制性定语从句）[高分句型3] Of course, when new technology changes the way we live, it can be a scary prospect.（由when引导的时间状语从句）江西省上饶艺术学校2023-2024学年高二上学期1月考试英语试卷第一部分 听力（共两节，满分30分）第一节（共5小题：每小题1.5分，满分7.5分）听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段对话后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对话仅读一遍。1. 【此处可播放相关音频，请去附件查看】When did Philo Farnsworth develop his original idea of sending pictures through the air A.

Her discovery of biorthogonal chemistry (生物正交化学) in 2003 created a brand-new discipline of scientific investigation, which has enabled countless advances in medical science and led to a far greater understanding of biology at a molecular (分子的) level. On October 5, Bertozzi was awarded the Nobel Prize in Chemistry, jointly with two other professors. She is also the only woman to be awarded a Nobel Prize in science this year, after an all-male line-up in 2021.Bertozzi was the middle daughter of an MIT physics professor and a secretary. Few predicted that Bertozzi would be the most famous person in the family. While her academic performance was not bad in high school, she was fond of playing soccer. She end ed up being admitted to Harvard University. Despite her talent in soccer, she found it too time-consuming and quit the sport to devote herself to academics.But before becoming a rock star scientist, Bertozzi almost became an actual rock star. When she started at Harvard, she was tempted to major in music. That idea was “unpopular” with her parents, and she was timid about defying them. Instead, she chose the premed (医学预科的) track that included classes in math and sciences, and declared herself a biology major at the end of her first year of college.Her interest in music did not completely fall by the wayside, however. Bertozzi played keyboards and sang backup vocals for a hair metal band. Bertozzi, however, did not play with the band for long. Once the band’s practices and performances conflicted with her labs and classes, there was only one outcome.Plus, she’d soon have organic chemistry to think about a course which is infamous for weeding out pre-meds. Without any clear career ambitions up to that point, Bertozzi had been thinking about possibly becoming a doctor when, in her sophomore year (大二学年), she suddenly fell so head over heels in love with her chemistry course that she couldn’t tear herself away from her textbooks long enough to go out on Saturday nights. A torture to many was pure pleasure for her. Bertozzi changed her major from biology to chemistry a year later.Bertozzi has sometimes joked about her having missed out on her chance to follow Morello to LosAngeles. “I didn’t get on that bus, and my playing is now limited to ‘The Wheel s on the Bus Go Round,’ I’m waiting for my sons to get old enough to appreciate 1980s heavy metal!”24. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage A. Bertozzi is one of those scientists who made significant new discoveries.B. Bertozzi was the only female to win a Nobel Prize in science in 2021.C. Bertozzi played keyboards and sang backup vocals throughout her college years.D. Bertozzi initially planned to become a doctor.25. The underlined word in Para 3 means ________.A. tell B. disobey C. approach D. threaten26. The organic chemistry course Bertozzi took was known to be ________.A. easy and enjoyableB. difficult to pass for pre-med studentsC. popular among hair metal band playersD. a required course for all college students27. What kind of person do you think Carolyn Bertozzi is A. Brave and sympathetic.B. Athletic and critical.C. Humble and passionate.D. Talented and creative.CThe challenge of storing energy year-round has been one of the biggest obstacles to the widespread adoption of green power. However, Polar Night Energy has developed the world’s first fully functional commercial sand battery, which could offer a low-cost, eco-friendly solution to the storage problem. It is the first commercial sand battery in the world, and it was built in Kankaanpaa, Finland in 2022.Dr. Natalia Schiff expert of Polar Night Energy, says that sand battery works by heating sand up to high temperatures (at around 500℃) using renewable energy, such as solar or wind power. The hot sand can then be stored for months or even years, and then discharged to provide heat or electricity when needed.The Polar Night sand battery has a capacity of8 megawatt hours (MWh) of thermal (热量的) energy, and it can discharge about 200 kilowatts (kW)of power. This means that it can provide heat for about 4,000 homes for a day, or it can generate enough electricity to power about 100 homes for a day.Sand battery is relatively inexpensive to build, and it is compatible (兼容的) with a wide range of renewable energy sources. It also can be built in larger sizes to store more energy, which is a promising new technology for storing renewable energy.Sand batteries could be a valuable tool to combat climate change. They could help to make renewable energy more reliable and available, which would reduce our reliance on fossil fuels. They could also be used to provide heat in areas that are not connected to the electricity.As the world transitions to a clean energy future, sand batteries could play an important role in helping to balance the energy and ensuring that we have a reliable source of energy when we need it.28. What is the characteristic of sand battery A. Costly and demanding. B. Cheap and clean.C. Costly and imaginary. D. Cheap but polluting.29. What does Dr. Natalia Schiff tell us A. Working model of sand battery.B. Statistical method of the research.C. Theoretical basis of making batteries.D. Historical analysis of renewable energy.30. What does the underlined word “combat” in paragraph 5 mean A. Comfort. B. Commit. C. Fight for. D. Fight against.31. What is the author’s attitude toward sand battery A. Unclear. B. Dismissive. C. Doubtful. D. Favorable.DJust as with any other subject, people who learn sign language are learning a new skill and using their brains to do this, thus expanding their minds in a new field.A research has been carried out which proves that deaf children who learn sign language at an early age are more likely to do well academically. This is partly due to their increased ability to communicate with those around them. However, it is also because sign language is not, as many people mistakenly think, a system of gestures representing words, but a complicated language system, just as the English which is used in this article. Thus, children who learn sign language have already learn about the way language works and is made up, which will help in future studies especially if they decide to learn to speak English, or any other spoken language.A deaf child who can use sign language develops a sense of identity. This will lead to a happier and more confident child because they know their place in the world is secure.Again, for non-deaf children and adults who learn sign language, the academic advantages spread into social and cultural ones. Learning a language gives rise to greater confidence for those people, as they are able to communicate with someone whose peers may struggle to do so. And the skills of language learning are easily transferable into learning other languages but also into other academic pursuits.There can be no doubt that learning sigh languages is a useful attempt for anyone — whether they are deaf or non-deaf. The social and cultural advantages should not be taken lightly. And, especially with children, learning a language which helps people with a disadvantage may encourage them in the future to do more volunteering and other such work. They can be taught to hug all people regardless of their differences.32. What is the second paragraph mainly about A. Academic advantages of deaf kids learning sign language.B. Causes of deaf children learning sign language.C. Approaches to helping deaf children recover.D. Difficulties that deaf children meet in their language study.33. Why does learning sign language make a deaf child happier A. It makes a deaf child more humorous.B. It provides a deaf child with a life without danger.C. It helps a deaf child perform well in building up their body.D. It gives a deaf child a sense of belonging.34. What will a child learning sign language be like in the future A. Extremely intelligent. B. Slightly imperfect.C. Socially responsible. D. Financially successful.35. What is the main purpose of the passage A. To discuss the different purposes for people to learn sign language.B. To show it is important for both deaf children and non-deaf children to learn sign language.C. To call on non-deaf children to learn sign language.D. To attract deaf children to communicate with non-deaf children.第二节（共5小题；每小题2. 5分，满分12. 5分）Who Invented Silk Silk is a thin, yet extremely strong, fiber. It is made from protein that silkworms produce when they make their cocoons. Thousands of years ago, ancient Chinese craftsmen began weaving silk fiber into a soft, smooth fabric. A precious textile, silk was at first reserved for exclusive use by the Chinese imperial court. Chinese officials decided that silk-making methods must remain China’s secret. ____36____The Silky Secret Gets OutHowever, the existence of silk did not remain a secret. On diplomatic visits to neighboring rulers, Chinese envoys carried gifts of silk. By the first century BC, the Romans had become familiar with this exotic(异国情调的)luxury item. ____37____ Western rulers issued edicts (法令)that controlled silk prices. As in China, silk was designated a solely royal fabric. Trading for silk was principal motivation for merchants who searched for routes.From Europe to the Far EastOver the centuries, different main routes developed. ____38____ Tradesmen travelling east or west could choose among routes that crossed many regions of Eastern Europe, the Middle East, Central Asia, and the Far East. ____39____ Trading vessels carried goods from China and Southeast Asia across Indian Ocean to Africa, India, and the Near East. Sea routes even reached Venice, Italy, by crossing the Mediterranean.____40____The Silk Road played an important role in bringing diverse cultures and peoples into contact. To make successful deals, merchants had to learn the languages and customs of the countries they crossed. As they journeyed along the Silk Road, people shared knowledge about arts, crafts, literature, science, and technologies. Over hundreds of years, cultures, languages, and religions influenced one another. Perhaps Chinese silk influenced history more extensively than any single famous person you can name.A. How Silk Changed HistoryB. How Silk Brought People TogetherC. It soon grew wildly popular in the West.D. In addition, sailors discovered sea routes.E. Rulers ordered that anyone who revealed these methods to foreigners would be put to death.F. Later they came to be known as “The Silk Road”, but the word “Road” should have been plural.G. But, there were many roads, not just one. A German geologist named the trade routes “The Silk Road”.第三部分 语言知识运用（共两节，满分30分）第一节 完形填空（共15小题；每小题1分,满分15分）For most of my life I had lived in the black and Latino community.

In the article, various people said that the public should oppose the idea of developing driverless cars. They said that some advances in technology were unnecessary and could even be dangerous. Hence, we should cease accepting technology just because it is new. The newspaper reported that the car company had already apologized for the accident, but the families of the deceased said it was not enough. Nevertheless, the company still claimed that most people would be travelling in driverless cars one day soon.On the one hand, there are many different groups of people around the world who live happily in the absence of new technology. Probably the most well-known are the Amish, a group of Christians living in rural America. They do not own or drive cars, watch TV, or use the Internet. They have lived mainly as farmers since the 18th century and they will probably be living the same way in the distant future. They advocate a simple life with an emphasis on hard work, family, and community. They think that is better than caring about luxuries or following the lives of the rich and famous. It could even be argued that the Amish’s quality of life is better since they live in and appreciate the natural environment rather than living in large, polluted cities.注意：1. 续写段落不少于150个词；2. 请按如下格式作答。参考词汇： the Internet keep in touch social media health monitorParagraph 1:On the other hand, new technology has provided people everywhere with many benefits over the years.
