Due to the fact that the average life expectancy in Ghana is 64 years old, and the most common causes of death are largely treatable conditions, such as malaria, stroke, and respiratory infections. Boateng, growing up in a small village in southern Ghana/struggling to access basic health care, felt an urgent call to help and decided he would make it his life’s mission to bring health care to remote communities in Ghana.
Boateng worked hard in school, getting a scholarship to study biology at Cornell University in the US, and ultimately earned his master’s in Healthcare Administration. Later he started his nonprofit, OKB Hope Foundation, and converted a van into a mobile doctor’s office called the Hope Health Van to bring health care directly to those in need in 2021.
A few times a week, the mobile clinic and medical team travel long distances to remote communities in Ghana and provide free routine medical care. On each trip, Boateng’s team consists of a nurse, a physician’s assistant, a doctor, and an operation assistant. In the van, they can run basic labs like bloodwork and urinalysis as well as prescribe and provide medications. “It’s like a one-stop shop for people,” said Boateng, adding that most of the people they see have one health issue or another.
Since its launch, Boateng says the Hope Health Van has served more than 4, 000 Ghanaians across more than 45 rural communities who otherwise don’t have easily accessible medical care. To supplement the mobile clinic, Boateng’s organization has also trained 20 volunteers to serve as local health advocates. They check people’s vitals and provide the medical team with timely data for assessing how to move forward with care and treatment, especially for those whose health is at risk.
In the future, Boateng hopes to expand to provide more consistent and high-quality medical care not only to those living in remote areas of Ghana but in other countries as well. “I believe that our model can be replicated in sub-Saharan Africa,” he said.
4. What inspired Boateng to set his life goal
A. He wanted to get a scholarship.
B. Many locals died of deadly diseases.
C. The birthplace of him was small and poor.
D. Basic health care was inaccessible for locals.
5. What is paragraph 3 mainly about
A. How Boateng’s team functions. B. Why Boateng’s team was founded.
C. What Boateng’s team has achieved. D. Where Boateng’s team has travelled.
6. What is Boateng’s attitude to his team in the future
A. Ambiguous. B. Ambitious. C. Indifferent. D. Doubtful.
7. What is the best title for the text
A. A van bringing medical care to thousands
B. A country lacking basic health care
C. Efforts to provide people with medications
D. Mobile vans travelling through Ghana

Beejhy Barhany, growing up in an Ethiopian-Jewish community in Israel, has been cooking for her family as long as she can remember. Now a chef and owner of Tsion Café in Harlem, New York, Barhany continues to pull from cooking traditions, including one that has become the source of much controversy in recent decades: washing raw meat before cooking.
For Barhany, submerging raw chicken in salt and lemon water is both functional and ceremonial, as soaking or rinsing raw meat in salt water and acid-such as lemon juice or vinegar-is a common form of “washing” required by Jewish Kosher rules. And a 2015 survey of over 1, 500 American consumers found that nearly 70 percent rinse or wash their poultry before cooking it, though the U. S. Department of Agriculture( USDA) started telling consumers not to wash raw poultry in the 1990s. Experts including those from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention strongly warned that rather than reducing the risk of foodborne illness (食源性疾病), washing meat increases the likelihood of spreading unwanted pathogens (病原体), like salmonella and campylobacter, around the kitchen.
“Washing meat before cooking is not really helping,” says Betty Feng, associate professor of food science at Purdue University. “The only thing it does is splashing (飞溅) and could cross-contaminate a lot of your kitchen items-your sink, probably your clothes, whatever you have by the sink.” Moreover, Feng cautions against using saltwater, vinegar, or lemon juice, which simply isn’t strong enough to effectively kill foodborne pathogens. “If the acidity is high enough to kill bacteria, then it’s not really likely you can use your bare hand to wash,” she says.
And a 2022 study showed that submerging meat in a bowl of water reduced the splashing but not the spread of germs. “I would treat the entire sink just like the outside of the chicken——it’s a biological hazard,” says Benjamin Chapman, one of the study authors and associate professor in North Carolina State University’s agricultural and human sciences department. “The way that we make meat safe is through cooking, not through the removal of pathogens.”
8. What is the purpose of paragraph 1
A To broaden the readers’ horizons. B. To make a comparison.
C. To introduce the topic. D. To state the author’s opinion.
9 What is mentioned about the Jewish Kosher rules from this text
A. Nearly 70 percent of American consumers follow the rules.
B. The rules pay attention to functional and ceremonial aspects.
C. Uncooked meat is submerged in water with salt and vinegar.
D. It warns people of the risk of foodborne illness.
10. What is TRUE about “washing meat before cooking” according to Betty
A. It has sparked a lot of controversy in recent years.
B. It has decreased the risk of foodborne illness.
C. It can not be directly done/with your bare hands.
D. It may do a favor/ to the transfer of pathogens.
11 Why is the underlined phrase “biological hazard” mentioned in the last paragraph
A. To emphasize that chickens pose a level/of threat to humans’ life.
B. To show that sinks can be a way to increase splashing.
C. To prove that cooking is a good way to kill pathogens.
D. To stress that the practice people follow is not advisable.
D
The world’s largest ape Gigantopithecus blacki (G. blacki) vanished from Earth between 295, 000 and 215, 000 years ago, more than 100, 000 years earlier than once thought, pushed to extinction as the environment around it shifted, researchers reported recently in Nature.
The fate of G. blacki, twice the size of the largest modern apes and resembling a super-sized version of its close cousin, the orangutan, has long been a mystery. For about 2 million years, G. blacki inhabited a landscape of forests and grasses in what’s now southern China. It left behind only scattered remnants: thousands of teeth and four jawbones, unearthed in cave sediments in the region.
To establish a chronology for the ape’s extinction, paleoanthropologist Yingqi Zhang of the Chinese Academy of Sciences in Beijing and his colleagues used different dating techniques to determine the ape’s habits, diet and environment. In the teeth, they looked for data on the ape’s diet, measuring isotopes (同位素) of carbon and oxygen as well as examining the teeth for tiny evidence of wear and tear — which can reveal not only diet, but also give hints of repeated behaviors and stress. The team also analyzed the cave sediments bearing the fossils, hunting for fossil pollen and conducting luminescence dating (光释光测年) on radioactive elements within the sediments.
The team’s reconstruction revealed that — around 700, 000 to 600, 000 years ago, southern China shifted from its forested landscape to a more seasonally-driven environment. Some apes, including the orangutans, were able to adapt to these changes. But G. blacki was unable to change rapidly enough, and its numbers slowly dwindled before going extinct, the team suggested.
The assembled evidence told a convincing story that “the extinction of G. blacki coincided in southern China with a decrease of forest cover and expansion of savanna-like environments,” said Hervé Bocherens, a biogeologist at the University of Tuebingen in Germany. Still, he said, documenting the extinction of this species from the fossil record is tricky — and it’s impossible to rule out the possibility that pockets of G. blacki may have lingered in still-undiscovered caves for longer.
12 What can be known about G. blacki according to paragraph 2
A. G. blacki shared certain similarities with the orangutan.
B. G. blacki was twice larger than the largest modern apes.
C. G. blacki lived in places full of basins and deserts.
D. G. blacki might have thousands of teeth.
13. What did Zhang and his workmates do to figure out information related to G. blacki
A. They checked the situation of G. blacki.
B. They repeated the behaviors done by G. blacki.
C. They applied radioactive elements to the analysis of the cave sediments.
D. They measured isotopes of carbon and hydrogen in G. blacki diet.
14. What is the meaning of the underlined word “dwindled” in paragraph 4
A. Increased. B. Reduced. C. Unchanged. D. Multiplied.
15. What can we learn from Bocherens’s words
A. Many hands make light work.
B. One good turn deserves another.
C. Knowledge advances by steps and not by leaps.
D. Experience must be bought.

47. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
For more than 20 years I have been traveling the world, preferring often to spend a year or two in different countries rather than to just visit as a tourist. It has become an important part of my personality as I grew older and shaped the way I saw the world and myself.
My little taste of this amazing life was when I was 19 years old. I was selected among a small group of college classmates to spend a year abroad. This was long before people could travel the world through social media like Facebook and Twitter. In order to see a place, you had to go there and experienced it.
I was raised in a middle-class family and couldn’t afford to travel around the world the way I wished I could. The only way I knew about the world outside was through letters I wrote to pen pals from over a dozen countries as a kid, and from television. Growing up, I always loved the very funny British comedies that were shown on local public television every Saturday night. So when I got the chance to apply for a study abroad program, I chose London.
Living abroad can be exciting, scary and challenging. I thought it would be easier because I spoke the same language as the local people did. But I also like to relish (享受) the little differences between the British and American culture and language. I also learned that in England, they spell words differently than in the U. S. In British spelling, they put a “u” in words like favor to make it “favour” and an “s” in words like analyze to make it “analyse”. I was able to adapt quickly to this new way of writing since I was submitting papers all the time for my classes.
Academically, I got to take classes that weren’t offered at my college back home. For example, I had a course in sociology and learned about the native people of Papua New Guinea.
注意:
1. 续写词数应为150左右;
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Paragraph 1: But there were also challenges that year too.

Paragraph 2: Sometimes the difficult times made me sad and homesick.

Due to the fact that the average life expectancy in Ghana is 64 years old, and the most common causes of death are largely treatable conditions, such as malaria, stroke, and respiratory infections.

推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“In the future, Boateng hopes to expand to provide more consistent and high-quality medical care not only to those living in remote areas of Ghana but in other countries as well. “I believe that our model can be replicated in sub-Saharan Africa,” he said.(未来,Boateng希望扩大规模,不仅为生活在加纳偏远地区人们,也为其他国家的人们提供更加稳定和高质量的医疗服务。“我相信我们的模式可以在撒哈拉以南非洲复制,”他说。)”可知,Boateng希望未来不仅为生活在加纳偏远地区的人们,也为其他国家的人们提供更加稳定和高质量的医疗服务。由此可知,Boateng表达了他对自己团队的期望和愿景,他提到“我们有一个更大的愿景——将这种模式复制到非洲其他国家”。这表明他对团队的未来持有雄心勃勃的态度,希望他们能够在更广泛的范围内取得成功和产生影响。故选B。
【7题详解】
主旨大意题。根据文章第二段“Boateng worked hard in school, getting a scholarship to study biology at Cornell University in the US, and ultimately earned his master’s in Healthcare Administration. Later he started his nonprofit, OKB Hope Foundation, and converted a van into a mobile doctor’s office called the Hope Health Van to bring health care directly to those in need in 2021.( Boateng在学校努力学习,获得了美国康奈尔大学生物学专业的奖学金,并最终获得了医疗管理硕士学位。后来,他创办了自己的非营利组织OKB希望基金会,并将一辆面包车改装成移动医生办公室,名为“Hope Health Van”,于2021年直接为有需要的人提供医疗服务。)”以及全文内容可知,文本主要讲述了Boateng通过他的非营利组织以及Hope Health Van来改善加纳偏远社区的医疗保健服务的努力。这辆车直接为有需要的人提供医疗服务,为加纳多个农村社区的超过4000人提供服务。因此,选项A“A van bringing medical care to thousands (一辆为数千人带来医疗服务的车)”准确地概括了文本的主要内容和重点。故选A。

Beejhy Barhany, growing up in an Ethiopian-Jewish community in Israel, has been cooking for her family as long as she can remember. Now a chef and owner of Tsion Café in Harlem, New York, Barhany continues to pull from cooking traditions, including one that has become the source of much controversy in recent decades: washing raw meat before cooking.
For Barhany, submerging raw chicken in salt and lemon water is both functional and ceremonial, as soaking or rinsing raw meat in salt water and acid-such as lemon juice or vinegar-is a common form of “washing” required by Jewish Kosher rules. And a 2015 survey of over 1, 500 American consumers found that nearly 70 percent rinse or wash their poultry before cooking it, though the U. S. Department of Agriculture( USDA) started telling consumers not to wash raw poultry in the 1990s. Experts including those from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention strongly warned that rather than reducing the risk of foodborne illness (食源性疾病), washing meat increases the likelihood of spreading unwanted pathogens (病原体), like salmonella and campylobacter, around the kitchen.
“Washing meat before cooking is not really helping,” says Betty Feng, associate professor of food science at Purdue University. “The only thing it does is splashing (飞溅) and could cross-contaminate a lot of your kitchen items-your sink, probably your clothes, whatever you have by the sink.” Moreover, Feng cautions against using saltwater, vinegar, or lemon juice, which simply isn’t strong enough to effectively kill foodborne pathogens. “If the acidity is high enough to kill bacteria, then it’s not really likely you can use your bare hand to wash,” she says.
And a 2022 study showed that submerging meat in a bowl of water reduced the splashing but not the spread of germs. “I would treat the entire sink just like the outside of the chicken——it’s a biological hazard,” says Benjamin Chapman, one of the study authors and associate professor in North Carolina State University’s agricultural and human sciences department. “The way that we make meat safe is through cooking, not through the removal of pathogens.”
8. What is the purpose of paragraph 1
A. To broaden the readers’ horizons. B. To make a comparison.
C. To introduce the topic. D. To state the author’s opinion.
9. What is mentioned about the Jewish Kosher rules from this text
A. Nearly 70 percent of American consumers follow the rules.
B. The rules pay attention to functional and ceremonial aspects.
C. Uncooked meat is submerged in water with salt and vinegar.
D. It warns people of the risk of foodborne illness.
10. What is TRUE about “washing meat before cooking” according to Betty
A. It has sparked a lot of controversy in recent years.
B. It has decreased the risk of foodborne illness.
C. It can not be directly done/with your bare hands.
D. It may do a favor/ to the transfer of pathogens.
11. Why is the underlined phrase “biological hazard” mentioned in the last paragraph
A. To emphasize that chickens pose a level/of threat to humans’ life.
B. To show that sinks can be a way to increase splashing.
C. To prove that cooking is a good way to kill pathogens.
D. To stress that the practice people follow is not advisable.
【答案】8. C 9. C 10. D 11. D
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍民众和专家在“烹调前将生肉洗净”问题上的分歧,以及专家们的研究发现,这种做法是不可取的。
【8题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段“Beejhy Barhany, growing up in an Ethiopian-Jewish community in Israel, has been cooking for her family as long as she can remember. Now a chef and owner of Tsion Café in Harlem, New York, Barhany continues to pull from cooking traditions, including one that has become the source of much controversy in recent decades: washing raw meat before cooking.(Beejhy Barhany在以色列的一个埃塞俄比亚犹太人社区长大,从记事起就一直在为家人做饭。Barhany现在是纽约哈莱姆区Tsion Café咖啡馆的厨师和老板,他继续借鉴烹饪传统,包括近几十年来备受争议的一个传统:烹饪前清洗生肉。)”结合全文可知,本段主要功能是为了引出话题:人们在“烹调前将生肉洗净”这一事上存在较多分歧。故选C项。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“For Barhany, submerging raw chicken in salt and lemon water is both functional and ceremonial, as soaking or rinsing raw meat in salt water and acid-such as lemon juice or vinegar-is a common form of ‘washing’ required by Jewish Kosher rules. (对Barhany来说,将生鸡肉浸泡在盐和柠檬水中既有功能又有仪式意义,因为在盐水和酸(如柠檬汁或醋)中浸泡或冲洗生肉是犹太洁食规则要求的一种常见的“洗涤”方式。)”可知,犹太洁食规则会将生肉浸泡在放有盐、酸(如醋)的水中。故选C项。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“The only thing it does is splashing (飞溅) and could cross-contaminate a lot of your kitchen items-your sink, probably your clothes, whatever you have by the sink. (它唯一能做的就是飞溅,并可能交叉污染你的厨房用品——你的水槽,可能是你的衣服,你水槽旁边的任何东西。)”可知,Betty认为烹调前将生肉洗净不但起不了作用,反而还会导致交叉感染。故选D项。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中“And a 2022 study showed that submerging meat in a bowl of water reduced the splashing but not the spread of germs. (2022年的一项研究表明,将肉浸入一碗水中可以减少溅起的水,但不能减少细菌的传播。)”以及“The way that we make meat safe is through cooking, not through the removal of pathogens.(我们使肉类安全的方式是通过烹饪,而不是通过去除病原体。)”可知,在本段提到“biological hazard(生物危害)”是为了强调人们遵循的烹调前将生肉洗净的做法是不可取的。故选D项。
D
The world’s largest ape Gigantopithecus blacki (G. blacki) vanished from Earth between 295, 000 and 215, 000 years ago, more than 100, 000 years earlier than once thought, pushed to extinction as the environment around it shifted, researchers reported recently in Nature.
The fate of G. blacki, twice the size of the largest modern apes and resembling a super-sized version of its close cousin, the orangutan, has long been a mystery. For about 2 million years, G. blacki inhabited a landscape of forests and grasses in what’s now southern China. It left behind only scattered remnants: thousands of teeth and four jawbones, unearthed in cave sediments in the region.
To establish a chronology for the ape’s extinction, paleoanthropologist Yingqi Zhang of the Chinese Academy of Sciences in Beijing and his colleagues used different dating techniques to determine the ape’s habits, diet and environment. In the teeth, they looked for data on the ape’s diet, measuring isotopes (同位素) of carbon and oxygen as well as examining the teeth for tiny evidence of wear and tear — which can reveal not only diet, but also give hints of repeated behaviors and stress. The team also analyzed the cave sediments bearing the fossils, hunting for fossil pollen and conducting luminescence dating (光释光测年) on radioactive elements within the sediments.
The team’s reconstruction revealed that — around 700, 000 to 600, 000 years ago, southern China shifted from its forested landscape to a more seasonally-driven environment. Some apes, including the orangutans, were able to adapt to these changes. But G. blacki was unable to change rapidly enough, and its numbers slowly dwindled before going extinct, the team suggested.
The assembled evidence told a convincing story that “the extinction of G. blacki coincided in southern China with a decrease of forest cover and expansion of savanna-like environments,” said Hervé Bocherens, a biogeologist at the University of Tuebingen in Germany. Still, he said, documenting the extinction of this species from the fossil record is tricky — and it’s impossible to rule out the possibility that pockets of G. blacki may have lingered in still-undiscovered caves for longer.
12. What can be known about G. blacki according to paragraph 2
A. G. blacki shared certain similarities with the orangutan.
B. G. blacki was twice larger than the largest modern apes.
C. G. blacki lived in places full of basins and deserts.
D. G. blacki might have thousands of teeth.
13. What did Zhang and his workmates do to figure out information related to G. blacki
A. They checked the situation of G. blacki.
B. They repeated the behaviors done by G. blacki.
C. They applied radioactive elements to the analysis of the cave sediments.
D. They measured isotopes of carbon and hydrogen in G. blacki diet.
14. What is the meaning of the underlined word “dwindled” in paragraph 4
A. Increased. B. Reduced. C. Unchanged. D. Multiplied.
15. What can we learn from Bocherens’s words
A. Many hands make light work.
B. One good turn deserves another.
C. Knowledge advances by steps and not by leaps.
D. Experience must be bought.
【答案】12. A 13. A 14. B 15. C
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇新闻报道,文章介绍了步氏巨猿远比人们所认为的灭绝得更早。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“The fate of G. blacki, twice the size of the largest modern apes and resembling a super- sized version of its close cousin, the orangutan, has long been a mystery.(步氏巨猿的体型是最大的现代猿类的两倍,外形酷似其近亲红毛猩猩的超大型版本,它的命运长期以来一直是个谜)”可知,步氏巨猿和红毛猩猩之间有一定相似性,故选A。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中“To establish a chronology for the ape’s extinction, paleoanthropologist Yingqi Zhang of the Chinese Academy of Sciences in Beijing and his colleagues used different dating techniques to determine the ape’s habits, diet and environment. In the teeth, they looked for data on the ape’s diet, measuring isotopes (同位素) of carbon and oxygen as well as examining the teeth for tiny evidence of wear and tear — which can reveal not only diet, but also give hints of repeated behaviors and stress.(为了确定猿类灭绝的年代,北京中国科学院的古人类学家张颖琦和他的同事们使用了不同的年代测定技术来确定猿类的习惯、饮食和环境。在牙齿中,他们寻找猿类饮食的数据,测量碳和氧的同位素,以及检查牙齿磨损的微小证据——这不仅可以揭示饮食,还可以暗示重复的行为和压力)”可知,为了弄明白步氏巨猿的灭绝时间,张和其团队研究了步氏巨猿的状况,故选A。
【14题详解】
词义猜测题。根据划线词前“But G. blacki was unable to change rapidly enough(但是步氏巨猿无法快速改变)”以及划线词后的“before going extinct(在灭绝前)”可知,步氏巨猿无法快速适应变化,其数量应是缓慢减少,最后灭绝,dwindled意为“减少”,故选B。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Still, he said, documenting the extinction of this species from the fossil record is tricky — and it’s impossible to rule out the possibility that pockets of G. blacki may have lingered in still-undiscovered caves for longer.(不过,他说,从化石记录中证实这个物种的灭绝是很棘手的——而且不可能排除步氏巨猿的小群体可能在尚未被发现的洞穴中逗留了更长时间的可能性)”可知,Bocherens对最新研究成果持保守态度,认为从化石弄明白物种灭绝事件存在较多难度,并且不能排除一些步氏巨猿生活在不为人所知的洞穴中,故能得出认知是循序渐进的,不能一跃而成,故选C。

第二节 (满分25分)
47. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
For more than 20 years I have been traveling the world, preferring often to spend a year or two in different countries rather than to just visit as a tourist. It has become an important part of my personality as I grew older and shaped the way I saw the world and myself.
My little taste of this amazing life was when I was 19 years old. I was selected among a small group of college classmates to spend a year abroad. This was long before people could travel the world through social media like Facebook and Twitter. In order to see a place, you had to go there and experienced it.
I was raised in a middle-class family and couldn’t afford to travel around the world the way I wished I could. The only way I knew about the world outside was through letters I wrote to pen pals from over a dozen countries as a kid, and from television. Growing up, I always loved the very funny British comedies that were shown on local public television every Saturday night. So when I got the chance to apply for a study abroad program, I chose London.
Living abroad can be exciting, scary and challenging. I thought it would be easier because I spoke the same language as the local people did. But I also like to relish (享受) the little differences between the British and American culture and language. I also learned that in England, they spell words differently than in the U. S. In British spelling, they put a “u” in words like favor to make it “favour” and an “s” in words like analyze to make it “analyse”. I was able to adapt quickly to this new way of writing since I was submitting papers all the time for my classes.
Academically, I got to take classes that weren’t offered at my college back home. For example, I had a course in sociology and learned about the native people of Papua New Guinea.
注意:
1. 续写词数应为150左右;
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Paragraph 1: But there were also challenges that year too.
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Paragraph 2: Sometimes the difficult times made me sad and homesick.
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】But there were also challenges that year too. One of my classes was called “Europe Since 1870”. In the U.S., I would have expected an introductory history class, but in England, I was supposed to have already known the history. Now was the time to analyze it. That meant I not only had to learn the history as I went along but also had to try to write a paper explaining why certain events happened as they did. Despite this, I don’t regret anything about my time in London. Even through painful experiences, I learn to grow.
Sometimes the difficult times made me sad and homesick. But luckily, I met some classmates from all over the world, and these wonderful interactions with people watered down my negative feelings. I met dozens of interesting people from places like France, Greece and Germany, Palestine, and Australia. Learning how to make friends with people from different cultures and backgrounds is really fun. Moreover, interacting with these new friends helps me understand the countries they represent.
