In 2016, when I was on the graduate scheme (计划) at Deutsche Bank, Marie Inafidon, chief executive of Stemettes, who encourages girls to pursue careers in science, technology, engineering and maths (STEM), was also working there. I didn’t meet her at the time, but I did read an article about her and her career.
Learning at 21 years old about the career of a young black woman’s succeeding in a traditionally white male-dominated industry was one of the most influential things that ever happened to me. It gave me confidence that it was possible to do well in the office and work on personal external project at the same time.
Role models can play a central role in shaping a young professional’s career. They are especially important if you belong to an under-represented group for whom a lack of representation in the workplace can lead to feeling isolated and lacking in confidence. They can help those just starting out, whether or not they are a graduate as I was, to believe in their own abilities.
There’s a growing need to have accessible role models. Given the tendency to exaggerate (夸大) success stories, hearing from women who talk honestly about the challenges they have faced, either when starting a business or forming a new career path, is much more effective. A study revealed that 70 per cent of girls say they think differently about their futures after hearing from women role models.
I’m frequently asked about what businesses could be doing to increase racial diversity in the workplace. A good starting point is to actively promote and support the voices of the people in the organisation that are leading positive change and inspiring others. This makes a real difference. Unlike the tokenism (装样子) I still come across, which results in individuals being made the lone representative for a group without real support from the organisation.
Things came full circle for me when I interviewed Ms. Inafidon for my book in 2019. I was able to tell her of the incredible impact her passion and confidence had had on me as a graduate trainee and how grateful I would always be for that.
4. What do we learn about Marie Inafidon？
A. She became successful at 21.
B. She was a trainee at Deutsche Bank.
C. She encouraged girls to take up STEM-related work.
D. She helped the author with her external project personally.
5. Who can benefit most from role models in the work place according to the third paragraph？
A. Experienced professionals. B. A graduate eager to succeed.
C. People without special abilities. D. The young from an under-represented group.
6. What is effective in changing girls’ mindset？
A. Taking on challenging projects.
B. Reading more made-up success stories.
C. Starting their own business as early as possible.
D. Listening to women role models share their experiences.
7. What should businesses do to increase racial diversity in the workplace according to the author
A. Encourage positive opinions.
B. Make more colored people authorities.
C. Include more people of different races.
D. Understand the true meaning of tokenism.
C
New York University (NYU) surgeons have performed the world’s first transplant of an entire human eye, an extraordinary addition to a face transplant, although it’s far too soon to know if the man will ever see through his new left eye.
An accident had destroyed most of Aaron James’ face and one eye. His right eye still works. But the surgeons hoped replacing the missing one would produce better cosmetic (整容的) results for his new face. The NYU team is doing just that. James is recovering well from the dual (双重的) transplant last May and the donated eye looks remarkably healthy.
Today, transplants of the cornea (眼角膜) are common to treat certain types of vision loss. But transplanting the whole eye—the eyeball, its blood supply, and the critical optic nerve (视神经) that must connect it to the brain—is considered a moonshot in the search to cure blindness.
Whatever will happen next, James’ surgery offers scientists a window into how the human eye tries to heal. “We’re not claiming that we are going to restore sight,” said Dr. Eduardo Rodriguez, who led the transplant. “But there’s no doubt that we are one step closer.”
Some specialists had feared the eye would quickly become dry and wrinkled. However, when Rodriguez opened James’ left eyelid, the donated eye was fat and full of liquid. Doctors see good blood flow and no sign of rejection.
Now researchers have begun analyzing scans of James’ brain that detected some puzzling signals from that all-important but injured optic nerve. Dr. Jeffrey Goldberg, who has long studied how to make eye transplants a reality, called the surgery exciting. “It’s an amazing confirmation of animal experiments that have kept transplanted eyes alive,” he said. “The difficulty now is how to regrow the optic nerve, although animal studies are making progress.” He praised the NYU team’s “boldness” in even aiming for optic nerve repair and hopes the transplant will promote more research.
8. What can be learnt from the first two paragraphs
A. James is fully content with the surgery result.
B. The surgery to replace James’ missing eye is underway.
C. James can see through his transplanted eye pretty soon.
D. The surgeons have transplanted the face and an eye to James.
9. What does the underlined word “moonshot” in paragraph 3 probably mean
A. A task impossible to complete.
B. A fantasy existing in the virtual world.
C. A project extremely tough to accomplish.
D. A mission probable to be complete without effort.
10. What challenge are the researchers facing now
A. How to obtain better cosmetic results.
B. How to make further progress in animal studies.
C. How to stop the transplanted eye from being infected.
D. How to grow the optic nerve of the transplanted eye again.
11. What can be a suitable title for the text
A. James Received Transplanted Eye Perfectly
B. NYU Doctors Perform World’s First Eye Transplant
C. Various Methods to Treat Different Types of Vision Loss
D Advances Made in Eye Transplant and Optic Nerve Repair
D
Could you manage without the internet for four and a half years That’s exactly what the actress Selena Gomez has done in a bid to improve her mental health.
She has spoken extensively about the relationship between her social media usage and mental well-being, recalling feeling like “an addict” as to becoming Instagram’s most followed user in 2016. “Indeed, I regret quitting from social media that late”, says she. “The unnecessary hate and comparisons went away once I put my phone down.”
However, the increasing digitization (数字化) means that everything from paying a bill to even making a phone call is at the mercy of the internet. Actively opting (选择) out of the internet becomes a matter of privilege. Ms Gomez’s multi-millionaire status has allowed her to take the “social” out of social media. The fact that she’s still the second most-followed woman on Instagram suggests it’s entirely possible to maintain a significant web profile to promote various projects by way of a dedicated team — without being exposed to the cruel comments.
It goes without saying that this is fundamentally different from how the rest of us without beauty deals and films to publicize use the likes of Instagram and Twitter, but even the concept of a digital detox (戒瘾) requires having a device and connectivity to choose to disconnect from.
The UK’s digital divide has worsened over the past two years, leaving poorer families without broadband connections in their homes. Digital exclusion (数字隔绝) is a major threat to wider societal equality in the UK.
Consequently, it’s worth bearing in mind that while deleting all social media accounts will undoubtedly make some feel infinitely better, many other people benefit from the strong sense of community that sharing platforms can develop. Greater resources and initiatives are needed to provide the underprivileged with the connectivity they desperately need to learn, work and live. It’s crucial that people feeling social media is harmful to their mental health are allowed to switch off and for those living in digital exclusion to be able to switch on primarily.
12. What do we learn about the actress Selena Gomez in the past four and a half years
A. She has withdrawn from social media.
B. She has won Instagram’s most followers.
C. She has had worsening mental problems.
D. She has succeeded in a bid on the internet.
13. Why does actively opting out of using the internet become a matter of privilege
A. Most people think that digital exclusion promotes societal equality in the UK.
B. Most people can hardly abandon the web while avoiding hate and comparisons.
C Most people can hardly get by without the internet due to growing digitization.
D. Most people have been seriously addicted to the web without being aware of it.
14. What is stressed concerning social media platforms in the last paragraph
A. They are beneficial to people’s mental health.
B. They create a virtual community on the internet.
C. They help many people feel connected with others.
D. They provide a necessary device for a digital detox.
15. What is the author’s attitude towards social media platforms
A. Subjective. B. Objective.
C. Disapproving. D. Favorable.

In our fast-paced world, where speed and instant results often steal the spotlight, there’s a quiet but great virtue that often goes unnoticed—the courage to go slow.

Seek support. Surround yourself with individuals who support your journey and value the importance of patience. Lean on their encouragement during challenging times.

For me, growth begins immediately after I am able to accept my mistakes and admit team efforts.
When I was elected president of student union, campus officials congratulated me saying I was quite adequate for the job. Before long, we had built a community of people who liked climbing the mountain near our campus. We started out with a small group of hikers, and then the number of participants increased.
One day on campus, I met a woman in a wheelchair called Grace. I asked her if she had ever been to the top of the mountain. She said she hadn’t and she would never. I told her to stay positive and not to give up admiring the beauty of the summit. Grace agreed to have a go. We all took turns grabbing a corner of her chair as we carried her 1. 7 miles to the top. This was probably one of the most magical and deeply meaningful things I did in college.
With the support of my community and hikers, no one was surprised that I had won the election. The first thing I did as president was hang a sign outside the Associated Students office that read, “Under New Management!” I was proud of my coming accomplishment.
Absolute power changed me absolutely. My ego, my arrogance and my pride were out of control. I began speaking down to people, demanding they listen to me because I thought I knew what was best. Seldom did I join the hikers to climb the mountain, arguing it was a waste of time. My friends and supporters tried to communicate to me that I had changed, that I was abusing my position, but I wasn’t listening.
A public conflict with the female vice president about where to build a coffeehouse opened the floodgates for others who were upset with me. They claimed that I had made wrong decisions and that I was unqualified for the job. “Resign! Resign!” the posters of their requests would soon be everywhere on campus. My whole world collapsed. I couldn’t figure out why a wonderfully enriching experience as president suddenly turned into one of my worst nightmares.
注意:
1. 续写词数应为150 左右
2. 段落开头已给出。
Paragraph 1:
Several days later, I caught sight of a familiar figure in the wheelchair, peering at my poster.
__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Paragraph 2:
I went to the campus lawn, began to admit my mistakes in public and promised that I had learned my lesson.

In 2016, when I was on the graduate scheme (计划) at Deutsche Bank, Marie Inafidon, chief executive of Stemettes, who encourages girls to pursue careers in science, technology, engineering and maths (STEM), was also working there. I didn’t meet her at the time, but I did read an article about her and her career.
Learning at 21 years old about the career of a young black woman’s succeeding in a traditionally white male-dominated industry was one of the most influential things that ever happened to me. It gave me confidence that it was possible to do well in the office and work on personal external project at the same time.
Role models can play a central role in shaping a young professional’s career. They are especially important if you belong to an under-represented group for whom a lack of representation in the workplace can lead to feeling isolated and lacking in confidence. They can help those just starting out, whether or not they are a graduate as I was, to believe in their own abilities.
There’s a growing need to have accessible role models. Given the tendency to exaggerate (夸大) success stories, hearing from women who talk honestly about the challenges they have faced, either when starting a business or forming a new career path, is much more effective. A study revealed that 70 per cent of girls say they think differently about their futures after hearing from women role models.
I’m frequently asked about what businesses could be doing to increase racial diversity in the workplace. A good starting point is to actively promote and support the voices of the people in the organisation that are leading positive change and inspiring others. This makes a real difference. Unlike the tokenism (装样子) I still come across, which results in individuals being made the lone representative for a group without real support from the organisation.
Things came full circle for me when I interviewed Ms. Inafidon for my book in 2019. I was able to tell her of the incredible impact her passion and confidence had had on me as a graduate trainee and how grateful I would always be for that.
4. What do we learn about Marie Inafidon？
A. She became successful at 21.
B. She was a trainee at Deutsche Bank.
C. She encouraged girls to take up STEM-related work.
D. She helped the author with her external project personally.
5. Who can benefit most from role models in the work place according to the third paragraph？

C. People without special abilities. D. The young from an under-represented group.
6. What is effective in changing girls’ mindset？

New York University (NYU) surgeons have performed the world’s first transplant of an entire human eye, an extraordinary addition to a face transplant, although it’s far too soon to know if the man will ever see through his new left eye.
An accident had destroyed most of Aaron James’ face and one eye. His right eye still works. But the surgeons hoped replacing the missing one would produce better cosmetic (整容的) results for his new face. The NYU team is doing just that. James is recovering well from the dual (双重的) transplant last May and the donated eye looks remarkably healthy.
Today, transplants of the cornea (眼角膜) are common to treat certain types of vision loss. But transplanting the whole eye—the eyeball, its blood supply, and the critical optic nerve (视神经) that must connect it to the brain—is considered a moonshot in the search to cure blindness.
Whatever will happen next, James’ surgery offers scientists a window into how the human eye tries to heal. “We’re not claiming that we are going to restore sight,” said Dr. Eduardo Rodriguez, who led the transplant. “But there’s no doubt that we are one step closer.”
Some specialists had feared the eye would quickly become dry and wrinkled. However, when Rodriguez opened James’ left eyelid, the donated eye was fat and full of liquid. Doctors see good blood flow and no sign of rejection.
Now researchers have begun analyzing scans of James’ brain that detected some puzzling signals from that all-important but injured optic nerve. Dr. Jeffrey Goldberg, who has long studied how to make eye transplants a reality, called the surgery exciting. “It’s an amazing confirmation of animal experiments that have kept transplanted eyes alive,” he said. “The difficulty now is how to regrow the optic nerve, although animal studies are making progress.” He praised the NYU team’s “boldness” in even aiming for optic nerve repair and hopes the transplant will promote more research.
8. What can be learnt from the first two paragraphs
A. James is fully content with the surgery result.
B. The surgery to replace James’ missing eye is underway.
C. James can see through his transplanted eye pretty soon.
D. The surgeons have transplanted the face and an eye to James.
9. What does the underlined word “moonshot” in paragraph 3 probably mean
A. A task impossible to complete.
B. A fantasy existing in the virtual world.
C. A project extremely tough to accomplish.
D. A mission probable to be complete without effort.
10. What challenge are the researchers facing now
A How to obtain better cosmetic results.
B. How to make further progress in animal studies.
C. How to stop the transplanted eye from being infected.
D. How to grow the optic nerve of the transplanted eye again.
11. What can be a suitable title for the text
A. James Received Transplanted Eye Perfectly
B. NYU Doctors Perform World’s First Eye Transplant
C Various Methods to Treat Different Types of Vision Loss
D. Advances Made in Eye Transplant and Optic Nerve Repair
【答案】8. D 9. C 10. D 11. B

Could you manage without the internet for four and a half years That’s exactly what the actress Selena Gomez has done in a bid to improve her mental health.
She has spoken extensively about the relationship between her social media usage and mental well-being, recalling feeling like “an addict” as to becoming Instagram’s most followed user in 2016. “Indeed, I regret quitting from social media that late”, says she. “The unnecessary hate and comparisons went away once I put my phone down.”
However, the increasing digitization (数字化) means that everything from paying a bill to even making a phone call is at the mercy of the internet. Actively opting (选择) out of the internet becomes a matter of privilege. Ms Gomez’s multi-millionaire status has allowed her to take the “social” out of social media. The fact that she’s still the second most-followed woman on Instagram suggests it’s entirely possible to maintain a significant web profile to promote various projects by way of a dedicated team — without being exposed to the cruel comments.
It goes without saying that this is fundamentally different from how the rest of us without beauty deals and films to publicize use the likes of Instagram and Twitter, but even the concept of a digital detox (戒瘾) requires having a device and connectivity to choose to disconnect from.
The UK’s digital divide has worsened over the past two years, leaving poorer families without broadband connections in their homes. Digital exclusion (数字隔绝) is a major threat to wider societal equality in the UK.
Consequently, it’s worth bearing in mind that while deleting all social media accounts will undoubtedly make some feel infinitely better, many other people benefit from the strong sense of community that sharing platforms can develop. Greater resources and initiatives are needed to provide the underprivileged with the connectivity they desperately need to learn, work and live. It’s crucial that people feeling social media is harmful to their mental health are allowed to switch off and for those living in digital exclusion to be able to switch on primarily.
12. What do we learn about the actress Selena Gomez in the past four and a half years
A. She has withdrawn from social media.
B. She has won Instagram’s most followers.
C. She has had worsening mental problems.
D. She has succeeded in a bid on the internet.
13. Why does actively opting out of using the internet become a matter of privilege
A. Most people think that digital exclusion promotes societal equality in the UK.
B. Most people can hardly abandon the web while avoiding hate and comparisons.
C. Most people can hardly get by without the internet due to growing digitization.
D. Most people have been seriously addicted to the web without being aware of it.
14. What is stressed concerning social media platforms in the last paragraph
A. They are beneficial to people’s mental health.
B. They create a virtual community on the internet.
C. They help many people feel connected with others.
D. They provide a necessary device for a digital detox.
15 What is the author’s attitude towards social media platforms
A. Subjective. B. Objective.
C. Disapproving. D. Favorable.
【答案】12. A 13. C 14. C 15. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇议论文。女演员赛琳娜·戈麦斯为了改善自己的心理健康关闭了自己的社交账号。日益数字化的今天，一切都取决于互联网。因此，要让那些觉得社交媒体对他们的心理健康有害的人关闭社交媒体，也让那些生活在数字排斥中的人能够主要打开社交媒体。

【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段中的“Consequently, it’s worth bearing in mind that while deleting all social media accounts will undoubtedly make some feel infinitely better, many other people benefit from the strong sense of community that sharing platforms can develop.(因此，值得记住的是，虽然删除所有社交媒体账户无疑会让一些人感觉无限好，但许多其他人受益于共享平台可以发展的强大社区意识。)”可知，社交媒体平台帮助许多人感受到与他人的联系。故选C。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“It’s crucial that people feeling social media is harmful to their mental health are allowed to switch off and for those living in digital exclusion to be able to switch on primarily. (至关重要的是，让那些觉得社交媒体对他们的心理健康有害的人关闭社交媒体，让那些生活在数字排斥中的人能够主要打开社交媒体。)”可知，对于社交平台，作者认为要让那些觉得社交媒体对他们的心理健康有害的人关闭社交媒体，让那些生活在数字排斥中的人能够主要打开社交媒体。因此作者对社交媒体平台的态度是客观的。故选B。

In our fast-paced world, where speed and instant results often steal the spotlight, there’s a quiet but great virtue that often goes unnoticed—the courage to go slow.

Push consistency over intensity. Focus on maintaining consistent effort rather than pushing for rapid, unsustainable changes. ___18___ This occurs because the lasting habits that are selected are implemented every day and reflected upon routinely.
___19___ Celebrate each little victory along the way. These moments of success, no matter how minor, are the building blocks of lasting change.
Seek support. Surround yourself with individuals who support your journey and value the importance of patience. Lean on their encouragement during challenging times.

C. It’s the slow and steady progress that leads to lasting habits.

【导语】这是一篇说明文。本文倡导在快节奏的世界中要有勇气慢下来，尤其是在制定教学策略等重要任务时，强调慢速、持久和不断调整改进的重要性。文章同时给出如何在快节奏的世界中放慢速度。
【16题详解】
上文“It may sound abnormal, but instead of rushing to implement (实施), we need to slow down. This is particularly relevant when we start the journey of developing instructional strategies.(这听起来可能不正常，但我们需要放慢速度，而不是急于实施。当我们开始制定教学策略的旅程时，这一点尤其重要)”说明在快节奏的世界，我们在做事情时需要放慢速度。空处呈上启下，G项中的“how do we go slow and develop and sustain a new habit”和上文中的“we need to slow down”相呼应，并引出下文中的方法。所以G项“那么问题来了，我们如何慢慢来，养成并保持一个新习惯呢”符合语境。故选G。

本段的主旨句“Start, add and abandon habits.(开始、增加和放弃习惯)”以及上文“Set systems that focus you and your team and organization on the implementation and impact on a few key practices.(设置使您和您的团队以及组织关注一些关键实践的实施和影响的系统)”说明习惯的养成需要时间和不断的调整，在这个过程中，需要关注一些关键习惯的实施和影响，放弃那些不关键的习惯。空处总结前文，E项中的“Protect these few practices”上文中的“a few key practices”相呼应，“giving up other unsuitable ones”和主旨句中的“abandon habits”相呼应，说明通过放弃其他不合适的做法来保护这些少数做法。故选E。
【18题详解】
上文“Focus on maintaining consistent effort rather than pushing for rapid, unsustainable changes.(专注于保持一致的努力，而不是推动快速、不可持续的改变)”说明我们需要保持一致的努力，不能关注快速的，不可持续的改变。空处顺接上文，说明需要保持一致的努力的原因，并且同时引出下文。C项中“正是缓慢而稳定的进步导致了持久的习惯。”符合语境，该项中的lasting habits在下文中得到了复现。故选C。
【19题详解】
下文“Celebrate each little victory along the way. These moments of success, no matter how minor, are the building blocks of lasting change.(庆祝一路上的每一个小小胜利。这些成功的时刻，无论多么微小，都是持久变革的基石)”说明我们需要庆祝一路上的每一个小小的胜利。B项“为每一个小小的胜利鼓掌”适合作本段的主旨句，统领全段。故选B。
【20题详解】
上文“Admittedly, it takes courage to welcome the wisdom of going slow in this competitive world.(诚然，在这个竞争激烈的世界里，欢迎放慢脚步的智慧需要勇气)”说明在竞争激烈的世界，我们需要放慢脚步的智慧和勇气。空处呈上启下，D项中的“As we slow down”和上文中的“going slow in this competitive world”相呼应，“patience becomes our greatest companion”和下文中的“Taking it slow with patience”相呼应，说明当我们放慢脚步时，耐心是我们最伟大的陪伴。故选D。

47. 阅读下列材料, 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。
For me, growth begins immediately after I am able to accept my mistakes and admit team efforts.
When I was elected president of student union, campus officials congratulated me saying I was quite adequate for the job. Before long, we had built a community of people who liked climbing the mountain near our campus. We started out with a small group of hikers, and then the number of participants increased.
One day on campus, I met a woman in a wheelchair called Grace. I asked her if she had ever been to the top of the mountain. She said she hadn’t and she would never. I told her to stay positive and not to give up admiring the beauty of the summit. Grace agreed to have a go. We all took turns grabbing a corner of her chair as we carried her 1. 7 miles to the top. This was probably one of the most magical and deeply meaningful things I did in college.
With the support of my community and hikers, no one was surprised that I had won the election. The first thing I did as president was hang a sign outside the Associated Students office that read, “Under New Management!” I was proud of my coming accomplishment.
Absolute power changed me absolutely. My ego, my arrogance and my pride were out of control. I began speaking down to people, demanding they listen to me because I thought I knew what was best. Seldom did I join the hikers to climb the mountain, arguing it was a waste of time. My friends and supporters tried to communicate to me that I had changed, that I was abusing my position, but I wasn’t listening.
A public conflict with the female vice president about where to build a coffeehouse opened the floodgates for others who were upset with me. They claimed that I had made wrong decisions and that I was unqualified for the job. “Resign! Resign!” the posters of their requests would soon be everywhere on campus. My whole world collapsed. I couldn’t figure out why a wonderfully enriching experience as president suddenly turned into one of my worst nightmares.

__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】
Several days later, I caught sight of a familiar figure in the wheelchair, peering at my poster. Feeling a warm blush burning my cheeks, I bowed my head, trying to escape her attention. But after a brief hesitation, I collected myself and edged toward her. When our eyes met, a faint smile flashed across her lips as if to comfort me. It was Grace who broke the silence, saying, firmly and affectionately, “Stay positive and never forget you are not alone.” Her words were like a warm stream flowing into my heart. Greatly inspired, I promised her I would cheer myself up and do everything I can to win back the students’ trust and respect as president.
I went to the campus lawn, began to admit my mistakes in public and promised that I had learned my lesson. Afterwards, I sprinted back to my community and sincerely apologized to them for my arrogance and dictatorial manner before. Then, the following few weeks witnessed me cooperating with my fellows, extensively seeking advice and listening patiently to their opinions. With joint efforts, not only was the coffeehouse successfully set up, but my job as president also went smoothly. It dawned on me that only by being a humble and inclusive listener can we achieve great success.
【解析】
【导语】本文以人物为线索展开。讲述了热爱爬山和远足的作者在同学们的支持下成功当选学生会主席后，组织了很多有意义的活动，甚至还帮助残疾同学Grace建立自信，登上山顶。但随着时间的推移，作者越来越傲慢，变得目中无人，独断专行，最终引发了大家的抨击，最后在Grace的开导下，作者意识到了自己的错误，并向大家公开道歉。
【详解】1.段落续写：

②由第二段首句内容“我走到校园草坪上，开始在公众面前承认我错误，并保证我已经吸取了教训。”可知，第二段可描写作者公开致歉及感悟。
2.续写线索：接受鼓励——道歉——重获信任——感悟
