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。
A
I used to be bad at playing basketball. Gym class in middle school was the worst. I was always the last kid to be picked. The only reason why I was even picked at all was that I was good friends with the best player in the class.
In the eighth grade, I finally decided I was sick and tired of being a nonentity. I dedicated （奉献） that entire summer to getting better. I spent every day playing basketball, practising for hours in the gym. I remember playing pick-up games with one group of kids until they all eventually got tired and left. Then a whole different group of kids would come in and I’d play with them too.
After months of this devoted routine, something amazing started to happen. People began passing me the ball. They trusted me to take the shot. They even started picking me first to be on their team! The last game of organized basketball I ever played was the culmination （高潮） of all my hard work. Against a team far more talented than mine. I scored 27 points. We still lost, but
I walked away from that game feeling like a total champion.
What I learned from those years of rejection and waiting to be picked was that life really isn’t any different. Most of us spend our lives waiting for opportunities to land in our laps. What’s worse, sometimes we feel entitled （使有权） to them. And when things don’t go our way—when no one picks us—we find something or someone to blame.
I could have complained when no one wanted me on their team. I could have convinced myself that I deserved to be picked. But I didn’t. Instead I took matters into my own hands and put in the work to become better.
Should we have our fate controlled by a few people who in most cases don’t even know us I certainly don’t think so. We have a choice. We can choose to create something meaningful, and so move forward with our ideas.
（ ）21．What can we know about the author in the first paragraph
A．He was always to be picked.
B．He was picked because of his good friend.
C．He was once crazy about playing basketball.
D．He used to be really good at playing basketball.
（ ）22．What does the underlined part “a nonentity” in Paragraph 2 mean
A．short person. B．A superior player.
C．An important player. D．An insignificant person.
（ ）23．According to the passage, which statement is NOT correct
A．People still refused to play with him.
B．Now he is good at playing basketball.
C．He gained people’s trust through his effort.
D．His team was defeated by a more talented one.

For Jaskirat Batra, the desire to take teaching as his career began in his childhood. As a child of teachers, he was often immersed （沉浸在） in the world of classrooms, chalkboards and textbooks. While deeply inspired by his parents, Batra’s desire was always to go beyond traditional teaching methods. As a graduate student in the Department of Materials Science and Engineering at Texas A&M University, he has established a unique style of teaching that might affect how engineering courses are taught in classrooms.
During his time at Texas A&M University, Batra joined the materials science program there. “I thought that it was the perfect place for me to combine my academic training in engineering science and electrical engineering with my research interest,” Batra said. “I couldn’t wait to jump in and begin my own research project.”
Batra began working on his research project, attending classes and taking exams. However, the turning point came when he was hired to teach an introductory engineering course to undergraduate students. During this time, he grew increasingly dissatisfied with the standard slides （幻灯具） based method, particularly because slides, which are 2D surfaces, were used to display complex 3D concepts.
“I knew there has to be a better way to help students visualize in 3D,” Batra said. “I want to develop an instructional strategy that would really help my students to learn and enjoy the process while they are in it.”He started to use 3D cardboard goggles (a kind of glasses) to study students’ motivation when materials science concepts were being taught: He found that when a slides-based lecture was combined with virtual reality, the students’ motivation increased by 77%.
“I always remember what my parents taught me about the power of a pen in shaping society, and the influence of a teacher on the future generations of teachers, scientists, engineers, etc. ,” Batra said. “In addition to being an educator, in the future I would love to have my own research lab where I can work with future generations of scientists to make discoveries and solve problems.”
（ ）24．What can we know about Jaskirat Batra
A．He felt bored with school life as a child.
B．He set a goal of being a teacher in college.
C．He taught 3D technology at Texas A&M University.
D．He devoted himself to improving traditional teaching methods.
（ ）25．What did Jaskirat Batra think of the materials science program
A．It was boring. B．It was creative. C．It was attractive. D．It was promising.
（ ）26．Why did Jaskirat Batra introduce the 3D-assisted teaching method
A．To meet practical needs in his teaching. B．To respond to his students’ advice.
C．To collect data for his research. D．To improve his teaching skills.
（ ）27．What happened after Jaskirat Batra applied the 3D-assisted teaching method to his class
A．His students’ academic performances were improved.
B．He no longer needed the standard slides-based method.
C．His students’ enthusiasm for his class was increased.
D．He popularized his teaching methods among his colleagues.

David Braben is a very well-known game developer who runs the UK development studio, Frontier Developments, but is just as well-known for being the developer of “Elite”. Over his career his studio has brought us the “Rollercoaster Tycoon” series and most recently “Kinectimals”.
In the background, however, Braben has been trying to solve another problem: getting programming and general learning of how computers work back into schools.
Braben says that education since we entered the 2000s has turned towards teaching useful skills such as writing on computer, how to get information, and learning basic computer use skills. And those have supplanted more computer science-like skills such as basic programming and understanding the hardware （硬件） contained in a computer.
His solution is not to create his own course, but instead to make a low-cost PC that can be given to kids for free and his courses are built up around their use. A personal computer is important for each student to have in class. When we say “low cost”, we mean the cost is so low that even “One Laptop per Child” would be realized. Braben has developed a tiny PC. How much is the cost $25. This is the answer to anyone that says he/ she can’t afford a computer. The hardware being offered is good, too. The new tiny PC will let the user look through the Internet and give the user a fully functional （功能） computer to play with. And it can be carried in your pocket or on a key chain.
This tiny cheap PC is going to be given to schools through a new charitable foundation （慈善机构） called the Raspberry Pi Foundation. It will help computer science studies in schools. Braben says he hopes that they will be given within the next 12 months.
（ ）28．What does the underlined word “supplanted” in Paragraph 3 probably mean
A．Used. B．Changed. C．Designed. D．Replaced.
（ ）29．What do we know about the PC David Braben is developing
A．It is small and very cheap. B．Its hardware isn’t very good.
C．It isn’t a fully functional one. D．It is cheap and not special.
（ ）30．What kind of person do you think David Braben is
A．He is mean, rich and famous. B．He is able, wise and mean.
C．He is rich, selfish and successful. D．He is able, famous and warm-hearted.
（ ）31．What David Braben has been trying to do is ______.
A．running the UK development studio B．letting children learn science-like skills
C．creating more advanced computers D．creating more computer games

Although many online personality tests are fun, only a few will really give you insight into who you are and what you are supposed to be doing with your life.
At Career we believe that each individual （个人）, regardless of （不管） race or religion, has a purpose in life, and until you discover what your purpose is, you will not find true happiness, nor true job satisfaction.
This doesn’t mean you won’t be successful. It just means you won’t be happy until you are moving towards your true purpose.
Unfortunately, our school system does very little to help students discover their true career. This is where online personality tests and career tests can help.
Online personality tests and career tests can help you better understand what type of work you should be doing to achieve job satisfaction, happiness, and success.
Personality tests are most useful in giving you insight into “how” your personality compares to others and “how” you like to work.
In particular, if you frequently experience difficulty working with others, or getting their support and cooperation, a really good personality test would show you how to get along better.
While personality tests are very useful at showing you how you like to work and how you like your work environment, they are not really designed to show you “what” type of work is right for you.
That is where Career Interest Tests come in. Online Career Tests, such as the Career offers will help you discover what your true interests are, and what type of work you will be passionate about.
But back to personality tests. The most well-established personality tests are the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator R, and the Enneagram.
（ ）32．What will the writer most probably talk about next
A．The differences between personality tests and career tests.
B．The similarities between personality tests and career tests.
C．The reasons why personality and career tests are popular.
D．The details of the two most well-established personality tests.
（ ）33．The underlined word “insight” in the first paragraph means ______.
A．theory B．demand C．understanding D．term
（ ）34．You can’t achieve true job satisfaction unless you ______.
A．find your true purpose in life B．choose the best work
C．get along well with others D．adapt to the work environment
（ ）35．The writer’s purpose in writing this passage is ______.
A．to present some popular online personality tests
B．to tell readers about online personality and career tests
C．to tell the differences between some popular online tests
D．to persuade people to take online personality or career tests

67．阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一个完整的短文。
In 2018, 17-year-old Hemesh spent a life-changing summer with his grandmother Anne, who had been diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease. Witnessing the impact of the disease firsthand, Hemesh was awakened to the seriousness of the situation.
One night, Hemesh walked into the kitchen only to discover that his grandmother had left the gas stove （炉） on after making tea. Shocked by the dangerous consequences Alzheimer’s disease could bring about, he couldn’t help but wonder what might have happened if he hadn’t been there.
Hemesh’s worries increased as he observed his grandmother’s behavior. She would wake up in the early hours of the morning, believing she was on a train, and wander outside aimlessly. This wandering tendency could potentially lead her to get lost or put herself in risky situations.
Determined to make a difference, Hemesh engaged himself in extensive research about Alzheimer’s disease and its symptomatic （症状的） progression. Through his studies, he discovered that wandering was a common problem among dementia patients, especially those with Alzheimer’s disease.
Inspired by his newfound knowledge and fueled by his desire to help, Hemesh told his family, “I can’t just stand by and watch this happen. I need to do something to keep Grandma safe. I think I have an idea that might help not just her, but others in similar situations.”
With firm determination, he developed an inventive answer to the wandering dilemma, a device he called the Guardian Companion. It was a wearable device, similar to a smart watch, specifically designed for Alzheimer’s patients. It integrated advanced GPS technology and a panic button to assist those who tended to wander, ensuring their safety and well-being. After the device got its official approval, Hemesh happily went to try it on for his grandmother.
注意：
1．续写词数应为150左右；

It is set in a beautiful town near the sea on the Italian Riviera. In the town there lives one young boy called Luka. Every summer, he loves going outdoors for adventure. One day, he makes friends with a boy he has never seen before. Luka shares his adventures with his new best friend. However, all the fun is threatened by a secret. His new friend isn’t a real person. He is a sea creature from another world just below the water’s surface. If you want to find out what happens to the two friends in the end, you can watch it sometime. That’s all about the movie. Thank you.

Should mobile phones be allowed at school
Nowadays mobile phones are becoming more and more popular among middle school students. But people have different opinions about whether mobile phone s should be allowed at school or not.
There is no doubt that mobile phone does have its incomparable advantages such as bringing us convenience in getting the latest information and communicating with our parents and friends. However, the disadvantages of using mobile phones among the middle school students should never be ignored. First, students may get addicted to phones easily, especially playing on-line games. Second, spending too much time on phone s has bad effect on their study, which may also influence their sleep and does harm to their eyesight. Third, students who spend too much time on their phone are more likely to get depressed for the lack of face-to-face communication.
All in all, middle school students have a weak self-control. Mobile phone does more harm than good, so it shouldn’t be allowed at school.

As Anne put on the Guardian Companion, Hemesh explained how it worked. He reassured her that it would help keep her safe. With a mixture of curiosity and skepticism, Anne agreed to give it a try. The device fit comfortably on her wrist. Hemesh walked his grandmother through the features, showing her how to use the panic button. Anne’s eyes lit up with a glimmer of hope, and for the first time since her diagnosis, she felt a sense of regained independence.
In the next few weeks, the device made a difference to Anne and her family. Not only did it provide a sense of security for Anne, but it also relieved the constant worry for her loved ones. The device brought peace of mind to the entire family, knowing that Anne was protected even when they couldn’t be by her side. Hemesh’s creation had truly transformed dementia care, and he found himself on a new mission to make the device accessible to as many people as possible, ensuring that no one had to face the challenges of Alzheimer’s disease alone.
