This victory has helped Argentina win another World Cup after their last win in 1986.Meanwhile， to some extent， it also ended the shadow of Argentina soccer legend Diego Maradona over Messi.

Many Argentina fans felt disappointed and even doubted him.However， Messi did not give up， for him， there is no eternal glory in the football world， and adversity （逆境） still exists everywhere.“I’m not a superstar，” Messi said.“I just hope to play better， and better.So please don’t believe that I can perform miracles， instead， believe that I am not afraid of difficulties and adversities.”

　　For people suffering from depression （抑郁）， there’s an all-natural treatment they should use — getting more exercise.It could help fight depression， even if people have a genetic risk， new research shows.
　　For the study， researchers collected information from nearly 8，000 people and found those with related genes were more likely to have depression over the next two years after examining them.But that was less likely for people who were more active at the study’s start， even if they had a family history of depression.Higher levels of physical activity helped protect even those with the highest genetic risk of depression.
　　Both high-intensity （高强度） exercise and low-intensity activities were associated with a reduced risk of depression.Adding four hours of exercise a week could lower the risk of a new episode （一段时期） of depression by 17%， according to the study.“Our findings strongly suggest that， when it comes to depression， being physically active has the potential to remove the added risk of future episodes in individuals who are genetically risky，” said lead author Karmel Choi.“On average， about 35 additional minutes of physical activity each day may help people to reduce their risk and protect against future depression episodes.”
　　Depression is a common mental illness globally， with more than 264 million people affected.“Depression is so ubiquitous， and that underlines the need for effective approaches that can impact as many people as possible，” Choi said.And mental health and primary care providers can use the findings to advise patients that there’s something meaningful they can do to lower their risk of depression.
28.How did the researchers reach their conclusion？（　　）
A.By analysing a mass of data. B.By conducting genetic research.
C.By comparing various levels of activity. D.By tracking the subjects for many years.
29.What does the study show about depression？（　　）
A.Physical activity betters medical treatment.
B.Exercise may decrease and prevent it.
C.Different levels of exercise intensity matter the same.
D.Exercising 35 minutes daily is the most effective treatment.
30.What does the underlined word “ubiquitous” in Paragraph 4 mean？（　　）
A.Simple. B.Complex.
C.Unusual. D.Common.
31.What is the purpose of the text？（　　）
A.To discuss a disease. B.To introduce a scientific study.
C.To analyse a genetic risk. D.To explain a phenomenon.
D
　　During excavations （发掘） in the town of Engen， in the district of Konstanz， Germany， a team led by Dr Yvonne Tafelmaier of the University of Tübingen， continued research into a cave that was used during the Magdalenian period， around 16，000 to 14，000 years ago.Although the cave was already known to scientists， they had not discovered the original entrance until now.
　　The last people to enter the original entrance of the cave would have been Ice Age hunter-gatherers （游猎采集部族成员）， according to the find.“Such a find offers the opportunity to answer important questions about the behavior of late Ice Age hunter-gatherers with modern methods，” Tafelmaier said.
　　A small part of the cave was found by scientists in 1978， when researchers made a hole in its top， allowing them to discover when it was in use.The cave would probably have been a place where Ice Age hunter-gatherers lived， they found.The hole in the cave was closed and further exploration was left for future scientists.New excavations began in 2021 and during six weeks of work， scientists gathered more information but the original cave entrance remained undiscovered.
　　In April of this year，however， Tafelmaier’s team began exploring the cave.Using imaging methods， they managed to locate a 65-foot hole and on 4 July， they finally discovered the original entrance to the cave.The entrance had been completely blocked by sediment （沉积物）， making it difficult to find until now.
　　While excavating the area， scientists also found Ice Age stone tools and animal bones， Tafelmaier said.Excavations at the site will continue next year.
　　New discoveries from the Ice Age are being made all the time.In July， the missing part of a famous Ice Age figurine （小雕像） was found in the Hohle Fels cave in Schelklingen， Germany.Scientists also found a piece of a figurine made 35，000 years ago.On closer examination， they realized it was part of a famous ornament （装饰品） that was recovered in 1999.The caves hold many valuable things， including early forms of prehistoric art such as figurines and musical instruments.
32.What did Tafelmaier’s team find out about the cave？（　　）
A.Its actual size. B.Its possible users.
C.Its historical period. D.Its original entrance.
33.What is the meaning of Tafelmaier’s team’s work？（　　）
A.It offers a chance to study ancient weather.
B.It answers questions on how the cave was formed.
C.It inspires the improvement of research methods.
D.It helps with the further study of ancient hunter-gatherers.
34.What did the researchers do in 1978？（　　）
A.They created a hole in the cave’s top. B.They visited the biggest part of the cave.
C.They worked out the exact age of the cave. D.They collected human bones in the cave.
35.What is the last paragraph mainly about？（　　）
A.Famous ancient caves in Germany. B.Recent Ice Age discoveries in caves.
C.Recovered instruments found in caves. D.Prehistoric art subjects shown in caves.

　　In Hyderabad， the second largest city of Sindh， there lived a boy who went by the name of Hamza.He was the second of four siblings （兄弟姐妹） and a student in grade eight.He was not good at a few subjects， namely biology， mathematics and physics， though Hamza was pretty good at all the other subjects that were put on his plate that year.Hamza tried very hard to do well in the three subjects， but every time he tried， he failed to achieve that goal.
　　In his family， there were many people who had a background in biology and were doing very well in their careers.Hamza’s parents decided that all their children should study biology.The boy did not go against his parents’ decision because he was an obedient （顺从的） child who believed that the decision one’s parents made for their children was always right.
　　Whenever Hamza got his results or weekly assessments （评价）， his parents would scold him for not getting good marks in the three subjects he was weak in.His parents would often be called to the school so that Hamza’s educational problems could be discussed.That too never resulted in much use as his teachers would force their views on him， instead of listening to him.The boy became more and more unhappy as the days passed.
　　He knew that if he dropped biology， he would be able to focus on mathematics and physics in a much better way.A lot of effort was required to achieve success in the two subjects， but the fear of not being able to score well in biology made Hamza feel tired and weak.Deep inside， the boy knew what he really wanted， but he never had the courage to speak up for it.He enjoyed computer-related activities.He had friends in school who studied computer studies and Hamza always listened carefully whenever his friends talked about things related to computers.He knew he should be studying computer studies instead of biology.

M：Good evening， everybody. I’m George. I’m so glad that for today’s programme， we have J.K. Rowling to share with us how she became a famous writer. Let’s welcome her.
W：Hi， everybody. I’m J.K. Rowling. I’m so glad to be here. Actually， I began writing stories at the age of six and always daydreamed of becoming a writer. In 1990， when I was stuck for four hours on a train， I dreamt of a boy called “Harry Potter”. Before I started to write about Harry Potter， my husband left me and our three-month-old daughter. So I decided to start writing novels to have a new life and wrote my first Harry Potter novel. I sent my novel to a lot of publishing houses. They doubted my writing skills and rejected me. This went on until the year 1996， when the Bloomsbury publishing house agreed to help me. In 1997， Harry Potter was published， and the character soon became one of children’s most favorite characters. We had to print more copies several times. In 1998， in the month of February， my very first novel was awarded the British Book Award for “Children’s Book of the Year”.

28.A　推理判断题。根据第二段中的For the study， researchers collected information from nearly 8，000 people可知，研究人员收集并研究了近8000人的信息。由此可推知，他们是通过分析大量的资料得出结论的。
29.B　细节理解题。根据第三段中卡梅尔·崔说的话可知，研究结果表明，当涉及抑郁症时，积极锻炼身体可能会消除基因导致患抑郁症的风险，平均来说，每天额外进行约35分钟的体育活动可以帮助人们降低风险并防止抑郁症的发作。
30.D　词义猜测题。根据画线词上文Depression is a common mental illness globally可知，抑郁症很普遍。由此可猜测，ubiquitous意为“十分普遍的”，与common意义相近。
31.B　写作意图题。综观全文尤其是第一段可知，本文主要介绍了一项关于锻炼有助于减少和预防抑郁症的研究。由此可推知，本文的写作目的是介绍一项科学研究。

语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。如果你厌倦了在马路或人行道上跑步，不妨试试越野跑。如果你还想尝试更具挑战性的跑法，可以试试山地跑。
36.E　空前内容提出问题：人们为什么在马路或人行道上慢跑？设空处应该对此进行回答，故E项（运动锻炼和舒缓压力是两个主要原因）解释了人们为什么慢跑，符合语境。
37.D　空后的as it gives your brain a workout表明运动能锻炼人的大脑，其中的as意为“因为”，D项说明跑步现在也变成了一种脑力锻炼，与本空后as引导的从句构成因果关系，故D项符合语境。空后的it指代D项中的Running。
38.B　本段内容承接上文As a result， your running technique will also change.具体介绍越野跑时不同地形需要不同的跑步技巧。空前内容指出当遇到陡峭的地方时，跑步的步幅要小一点，让脚在你的正下方以保持平衡；当路变得再陡一点时，再缩小步幅，且不要让身体前倾；下坡时，不要后倾，以免摔倒。B项（如果路再陡，就走吧）与上文介绍的三种跑步技巧形成递进关系，符合语境。
39.G　空前指出如果你适应了越野跑，可以尝试更具挑战性的山地跑，空后指出山地跑要求你能在身体不平稳的时候快速做出反应。由此可知，设空处应该与山地跑时你可能会身体不平衡有关，故G项（你会发现自己跑在陡峭小路上，路上有很多松动的石头）符合语境。
40.F　结合上文介绍越野跑和山地跑的内容以及下文可知，本段应该是介绍这两种类型的跑步对跑步者所穿的鞋有要求，故F项（越野跑和山地跑都需要合适的跑鞋）符合语境。

41.B　根据最后一段中的hand this book out to parents when they share a diagnosis， offering advice and support可知，这本新书给患病孩子的父母提供了建议和支持，这说明这本书中分享了充满希望的故事。
42.A　根据本空后的They hope new moms are met with more kindness and understanding.可知，这两位妈妈希望新妈妈们能得到更多关爱和理解。由此推断，当年她们在收到孩子的诊断结果时感到孤独、无助。
43.D　根据本段中的the moment when the diagnosis was unexpectedly shared by a doctor可知，Quarello和丈夫仍记得医生告知诊断结果的那一刻，在女儿出生前他们并不知道她患有唐氏综合征，所以这一消息让他们猝不及防。
44.B　参见上题解析。
45.C　根据本句中的her daughter Rhea’s Down syndrome diagnosis at 13 weeks into her pregnancy可知，Lagonigro是在怀孕13周时知道她女儿患有唐氏综合征的。
46.A　本空指Lagonigro怀孕后的历程，故选journey。
47.D　根据本句中的lonely and heavy可知，Lagonigro孤独无助，心情沉重，这说明她与其他唐氏综合征患儿的父母之间没有联系。
48.B　根据她们自己的特殊经历，Lagonigro和Quarello写了这本书。
49.C　根据下段中的It is a more beautiful life because Adeline is a part of it.可知，Quarello看到虽然她女儿患有唐氏综合征，但因为女儿的出现，她的生活才更美好。由此推断，本空选Lucky。

51.D　根据语境可知，Quarello看到了女儿的能力和她对世界的积极影响。

54.A　本段是Lagonigro和Quarello写这本书的梦想。
55.D　根据Lagonigro和Quarello的经历可知，她们俩人在得知孩子患有唐氏综合征时都非常无助，她们写这本书就是为了给其他有类似经历的父母提供建议和情感支持。
语篇解读：本文是一篇新闻报道。52岁的Denise Kirtley通过健身保持健康。
56.to turn　考查非谓语动词。inspire sb to do sth激励某人做某事。

today’s programme， we have J. K. Rowling to share with us how she
became a famous writer. Let’s welcome her.
W：Hi， everybody. I’m J. K. Rowling. I’m so glad to be here.
Actually， I began writing stories at the age of six and always daydreamed
of becoming a writer. In 1990， when I was stuck for four hours on a
train， I dreamt of a boy called “Harry Potter”. Before I started to write
about Harry Potter， my husband left me and our three-month-old
daughter. So I decided to start writing novels to have a new life and wrote
my first Harry Potter novel. I sent my novel to a lot of publishing houses.
They doubted my writing skills and rejected me. This went on until the
year 1996， when the Bloomsbury publishing house agreed to help me.
In 1997， Harry Potter was published， and the character soon became
one of children’s most favorite characters. We had to print more copies
several times. In 1998， in the month of February， my very first novel
was awarded the British Book Award for “Children’s Book of the
Year”.

　　Ever since he was a young boy growing up in Rosario， Argentina，
Lionel Messi always dreamed of becoming a World Cup champion.Now，
he has achieved this.
On 18 December， Argentina defeated France in the final of the 2022
FIFA World Cup in Qatar by winning 4-2 in penalties （点球大战）
following a 3-3 tie after extra time.Among the seven goals， Messi scored
three times.
This victory has helped Argentina win another World Cup after their
last win in 1986.Meanwhile， to some extent， it also ended the shadow
of Argentina soccer legend Diego Maradona over Messi.
For a long time， Messi has been compared with Maradona.With
excellent skills and great accomplishments， these two players are both
considered the greatest players in their era.Maradona succeeded in helping
his team lift the trophy （奖杯） in the World Cup.Yet， Messi hadn’t
before.
Messi has won many honors， as a seven-time Ballon d’Or
winner， a ten-time La Liga champion and a four-time UEFA Champions
League winner.While he led the Argentina team to take part in World Cup
four times before， his team’s best result was just runner-up， namely
the second place in the 2014 Brazil World Cup.
Many Argentina fans felt disappointed and even doubted
him.However， Messi did not give up， for him， there is no eternal
glory in the football world， and adversity （逆境） still exists
everywhere.“I’m not a superstar，” Messi said.“I just hope to play
better， and better.So please don’t believe that I can perform miracles，
instead， believe that I am not afraid of difficulties and adversities.”
Now， all rumors and disappointment are gone.With his
perseverance and skills， the Argentina superstar brought World Cup glory
to his country again.Winning in the last World Cup in his career also
serves as the perfect storybook ending to the 35-year-old legend.

　　For people suffering from depression （抑郁）， there’s an all-
natural treatment they should use — getting more exercise.It could help
fight depression， even if people have a genetic risk， new research
shows.
　　For the study， researchers collected information from nearly 8，000
people and found those with related genes were more likely to have
depression over the next two years after examining them.But that was less
likely for people who were more active at the study’s start， even if they
had a family history of depression.Higher levels of physical activity
helped protect even those with the highest genetic risk of depression.
　　Both high-intensity （高强度） exercise and low-intensity activities
were associated with a reduced risk of depression.Adding four hours of
exercise a week could lower the risk of a new episode （一段时期） of
depression by 17%， according to the study.“Our findings strongly
suggest that， when it comes to depression， being physically active has
the potential to remove the added risk of future episodes in individuals who
are genetically risky，” said lead author Karmel Choi.“On average，
about 35 additional minutes of physical activity each day may help people
to reduce their risk and protect against future depression episodes.”
　　Depression is a common mental illness globally， with more than 264
million people affected.“Depression is so ubiquitous， and that
underlines the need for effective approaches that can impact as many
people as possible，” Choi said.And mental health and primary care
providers can use the findings to advise patients that there’s something
meaningful they can do to lower their risk of depression.

　　During excavations （发掘） in the town of Engen， in the district
of Konstanz， Germany， a team led by Dr Yvonne Tafelmaier of the
University of Tübingen， continued research into a cave that was used
during the Magdalenian period， around 16，000 to 14，000 years
ago.Although the cave was already known to scientists， they had not
discovered the original entrance until now.
　　The last people to enter the original entrance of the cave would have
been Ice Age hunter-gatherers （游猎采集部族成员）， according to the
find.“Such a find offers the opportunity to answer important questions
about the behavior of late Ice Age hunter-gatherers with modern
methods，” Tafelmaier said.
　　A small part of the cave was found by scientists in 1978， when
researchers made a hole in its top， allowing them to discover when it was
in use.The cave would probably have been a place where Ice Age hunter-
gatherers lived， they found.The hole in the cave was closed and further
exploration was left for future scientists.New excavations began in 2021
and during six weeks of work， scientists gathered more information but
the original cave entrance remained undiscovered.
　　In April of this year，however， Tafelmaier’s team began exploring
the cave.Using imaging methods， they managed to locate a 65-foot hole
and on 4 July， they finally discovered the original entrance to the
cave.The entrance had been completely blocked by sediment （沉积
物）， making it difficult to find until now.
　　While excavating the area， scientists also found Ice Age stone tools
and animal bones， Tafelmaier said.Excavations at the site will continue
next year.
　　New discoveries from the Ice Age are being made all the time.In
July， the missing part of a famous Ice Age figurine （小雕像） was
found in the Hohle Fels cave in Schelklingen， Germany.Scientists also
found a piece of a figurine made 35，000 years ago.On closer
examination， they realized it was part of a famous ornament （装饰品）
that was recovered in 1999.The caves hold many valuable things，
including early forms of prehistoric art such as figurines and musical
instruments.

第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分）
　　阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选
项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
　　You see them every day： people jogging down a road or
sidewalk.Why do they do it？ 36.（　　）.Perhaps you， too， run on
a road or sidewalk but wonder if there is a better way.If you want to stop
running on a road or sidewalk， you can try trail running （越野跑） to
get out in nature.
　　Trail running will have you concentrating on a path， sometimes
rocky and sometimes soft or muddy.37.（　　）， as it gives your brain
a workout.During your running， you may find yourself in areas that
change from flat to hilly to mountainous.As a result， your running
technique will also change.
　　Whenever you hit a steep area， use a short stride （步幅），
keeping your feet directly underneath you， for balance.As the trail gets
steeper， shorten your stride even more and don’t lean （倾斜）
forward.When going downhill， avoid leaning back so you don’t
fall.38.（　　）！
　　Once you get used to trail running and want to try something more
challenging， try mountain running.39.（　　）.To enjoy mountain
running， you need to be able to respond quickly if you become unstable
（不稳固的）.
　　40.（　　）， because rocky trails can make your feet hurt
badly.Some even recommend that， before setting out， mountain
runners practice running in their shoes before going on long runs.
A. You’re not always running
B. If the path steepens more， walk
C. Mountain running may be for you
D. Running now becomes a mental exercise as well
E. For exercise and to reduce stress are the two main reasons
F. Both trail running and mountain running require the correct footwear
G. You will find yourself running on steep trails with unstable rocks to
deal with
语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。如果你厌倦了在马路或人行道上跑
步，不妨试试越野跑。如果你还想尝试更具挑战性的跑法，可以试
试山地跑。
36. E　空前内容提出问题：人们为什么在马路或人行道上慢跑？设
空处应该对此进行回答，故E项（运动锻炼和舒缓压力是两个主要原
因）解释了人们为什么慢跑，符合语境。
37. D　空后的as it gives your brain a workout表明运动能锻炼人的大
脑，其中的as意为“因为”，D项说明跑步现在也变成了一种脑力锻
炼，与本空后as引导的从句构成因果关系，故D项符合语境。空后的it
指代D项中的Running。
38. B　本段内容承接上文As a result， your running technique will also
change.具体介绍越野跑时不同地形需要不同的跑步技巧。空前内容
指出当遇到陡峭的地方时，跑步的步幅要小一点，让脚在你的正下方
以保持平衡；当路变得再陡一点时，再缩小步幅，且不要让身体前
倾；下坡时，不要后倾，以免摔倒。B项（如果路再陡，就走吧）与
上文介绍的三种跑步技巧形成递进关系，符合语境。
39. G　空前指出如果你适应了越野跑，可以尝试更具挑战性的山
地跑，空后指出山地跑要求你能在身体不平稳的时候快速做出反
应。由此可知，设空处应该与山地跑时你可能会身体不平衡有
关，故G项（你会发现自己跑在陡峭小路上，路上有很多松动的石
头）符合语境。
40. F　结合上文介绍越野跑和山地跑的内容以及下文可知，本段应该
是介绍这两种类型的跑步对跑步者所穿的鞋有要求，故F项（越野跑
和山地跑都需要合适的跑鞋）符合语境。

　　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。
　　In Hyderabad， the second largest city of Sindh， there lived a boy
who went by the name of Hamza.He was the second of four siblings （兄
弟姐妹） and a student in grade eight.He was not good at a few
subjects， namely biology， mathematics and physics， though Hamza
was pretty good at all the other subjects that were put on his plate that
year.Hamza tried very hard to do well in the three subjects， but every
time he tried， he failed to achieve that goal.
　　In his family， there were many people who had a background in
biology and were doing very well in their careers.Hamza’s parents
decided that all their children should study biology.The boy did not go
against his parents’ decision because he was an obedient （顺从的）
child who believed that the decision one’s parents made for their children
was always right.
　　Whenever Hamza got his results or weekly assessments （评价），
his parents would scold him for not getting good marks in the three
subjects he was weak in.His parents would often be called to the school so
that Hamza’s educational problems could be discussed.That too never
resulted in much use as his teachers would force their views on him，
instead of listening to him.The boy became more and more unhappy as the
days passed.
　　He knew that if he dropped biology， he would be able to focus on
mathematics and physics in a much better way.A lot of effort was required
to achieve success in the two subjects， but the fear of not being able to
score well in biology made Hamza feel tired and weak.Deep inside， the
boy knew what he really wanted， but he never had the courage to speak
up for it.He enjoyed computer-related activities.He had friends in school
who studied computer studies and Hamza always listened carefully
whenever his friends talked about things related to computers.He knew he
should be studying computer studies instead of biology.
注意：1.续写词数应为150左右；
2. 请按如下格式作答。
　　One day， Hamza became fed up with his poor results， the
scolding and the unnecessary views being thrown at him. 　
　　As soon as he joined the computer studies program， Hamza tried
his best to catch up with all the work. 　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　
参考范文：
　　One day， Hamza became fed up with his poor results， the scolding
and the unnecessary views being thrown at him.So he found the courage to
talk to his parents about his problems.As he tried his best to explain his
points to his parents， his siblings spoke in support of him too.Though the
parents were confused at what they were hearing， they agreed to change
Hamza’s major from biology to computer studies.The boy’s face lit up
with happiness as he heard his parents’ agreement.Hamza told his family
that they would be hearing of great results from his side within a month.
　　As soon as he joined the computer studies program， Hamza tried his
best to catch up with all the work.And he was able to achieve his goal this
time.Not only did he score well in his weekly computer studies tests， but
he was also able to focus well on mathematics and physics.He gradually
improved his performance and did very well in all his subjects.Hamza was
really happy with the way things turned out.He realized the importance of
expressing his own ideas and recognized the key to happiness was working
hard and never giving up.
