Andy Kong has worked very hard to get to where he is today. He credits becoming a millionaire by 20 to his strict Asian parents who tutored him at a young age by working for the family.
Kong, of Danville, Virginia, started working when he was only nine. English wasn’t a strong suit for Andy’s parents, and that’s where he was able to assist his family the most. After school and on weekends he would help out at their family-owned restaurant and nail salons. Not only did he do the labor work, but he was also involved in creating online ads. This was his introduction to the world of online business.
Andy started his Amazon business in the eighth grade. When he learned about Amazon Dropshipping (代发货模式) from a kid he saw on Instagram, he got inspired and decided to give it a try. Unfortunately, the store eventually got shut down because he was impatient with the growth. Instead of considering it a failure, he viewed this experience as a life lesson and learned from his mistakes. Meanwhile, his parents never stopped trying to talk him into focusing on school and their retail business.
“The biggest challenge when starting a business is getting someone to believe in you,” Andy says. He pushed through and did things for himself even when his loved ones discouraged it.
In 2019 Andy met his now business partners, and together, they created an Amazon management company called Project WiFi. This Project has proven to be extremely successful. They currently help over 55 clients run their online businesses, and plan to help many more in the future.
When asked about the secret to his success, Andy says, “Learning to sacrifice whether that’s family, friends, or soccer game for a single goal is the only way to succeed, rather than attempting multiple things. If it’s worth doing then it’s worth doing well with no shortcuts.”
4. Why did Andy work in his parents’ shops at a young age?
A. Because he could earn some pocket money. B. Because his parents weren’t fluent in English.
C. Because his parents could help with his study. D. Because he could get access to the Internet.
5. What does paragraph 3 mainly talk about?
A. A new online business model. B. Results of working impatiently.
C. Difficulties in Andy’s career. D. Andy’s tense family relationship.
6. What does Andy think contributes to his success?
A. His early working experiences. B. Lessons learned from his failures.
C. Gaining other people’s trust. D. Focusing on the thing you choose.
7. Which of the following can best describe Andy Kong’s personality?
A. Committed and generous. B. Motivated and persistent.
C. Creative and faithful. D. Hard-working and sociable.
【答案】4. B 5. C 6. D 7. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了Andy Kong创业的过程。
【4题详解】

The rhino census (犀牛普查) is out, bearing good news for the greater one-horned rhinos! In September, 2022, the International Rhino Foundation (IRF) documented in a report that there is a baby boom in this population, representing an increase of 167 percent.
According to the report, there are a total of 4,014 greater one-horned rhinos living in India, Nepal, and Bhutan. Although this is positive news, their IUCN (International Union for Conservation of Nature) status still remains vulnerable.
In India alone, the home to 70 percent of the world’s greater one-horned rhinos, there was an increase of 274 rhinos since the last biannual census, according to the organization Rhino Review.
An important reason for this baby boom is the fact that Assam, India, has enlarged Kaziringo National Park, home to the world’s largest one-horned rhino population. The park went from 430 square kilometers to 1,040 square kilometers. This gives more breeding areas for the rhinos, and they are closed to visitors during breeding season.
India and Nepal are also protecting the rhinos by enforcing wildlife crime laws. To reduce rhino death by poaching (偷猎), the IRF donates vehicles and equipment, plus education including guard training and crime investigation.
The IRF data for other rhino species is not as promising, although the greater one-horned rhino numbers are encouraging for future conservation. According to the report, there is a decline in Sumatran rhinos, Africa’s white rhinos, while the Javan rhino population is stable and threatened by loss of habitat.
The State of the Rhino report offers hope for these other species. Given that the greater one-horned things were once close to extinction, with fewer than 100 living in the world, their recovery is incredible. This demonstrates that there are solutions when organizations and people work together. Let us hope that this successful rhino baby boom will affect other endangered wildlife species around the globe.
8. What contributes to the baby boon of one-horned rhinos in Assam, India?
A. Extending the protected areas for rhinos.
B. Raising fund to set up more reserves for rhinos.
C. Leaving the one-horned rhinos alone in the wild.
D. Keeping visitors away from the Kaziringo National Park.
9. How does IRF help protect the one-horned rhinos?
A. By cooperating with other organizations.
B. By enhancing anti-poaching efforts.
C. By transferring the rhinos to other habitats.
D. By guarding the rhinos with new equipment.
10. What can we learn from the rhino report?
A. Rhinos are no longer a vulnerable species.
B. Rhinos will affect other wildlife in the world.
C. Everyone can play a role in protecting nature.
D. It is possible to protect other endangered species.
11. What is the purpose of this text?
A. To inform good news on the greater one-horned rhinos.
B. To show the measures taken to protect the one-horned rhinos.
C. To introduce an endangered species—the greater one-horned rhinos.
D. To indicate the decline of other species of rhino population.
【答案】8. A 9. B 10. D 11. A

Radiocarbon dating has revealed two fake (伪造的) paintings in France — probably the first time the technique has been used in a police investigation. The paintings were supposedly works from around the early twentieth century. But a team led by scientist Lucile Beck at the University of Paris-Saclay dated them to sometime within the past 70 years.
The use of radiocarbon dating is gaining popularity, thanks to advances that require smaller samples than ever before. Removing tinier samples from artwork is becoming more palatable to museums and owners of paintings. If there is a chance that a painting is genuine — and therefore valuable — they don’t want the collection of larger samples to damage it.
All living things take in carbon, including radioactive carbon-14, from the atmosphere and from food. When a plant commonly used to make oil painting cloth dies, the carbon-14 that it contained continues to fall off. Radiocarbon dating measures what’s left to estimate the time that’s passed, says Mariaelena Fedi, a physicist at the National Institute for Nuclear Physics in Florence, Italy.
Atomic-bomb (原子弹) testing, which began in the 1940s and took off in the 1950s, quickly increased the amount of carbon-l4 in the atmosphere.Carbon-l4 peaked around 1964and went down after a partial ban on nuclear tests. Researchers can easily identify materials containing modern bomb-produced radiocarbon because their carbon-14 concentrations are higher than pre-1950s levels. Beck’s team tested its samples to see whether they bore the feature of that bomb-produced radioactive carbon-14.
The canvas fiber from the paintings clearly contained carbon from either the mid-1950sor after the year 2000, the researchers reported. Beck acknowledged that, ideally, the team would do further chemical analysis to support its findings, but the researchers were limited by the tight time.
12. What does the underlined word “palatable” in Paragraph 2 probably mean?
A. Impressive. B. Acceptable. C. Expensive. D. Difficult.
13. How does radiocarbon dating work?
A. By analyzing samples from artwork.
B. By removing the smaller samples.
C. By measuring the carbon-14 left.
D. By testing the carbon in the sample.
14. What can we learn about atomic-bomb testing in Paragraph 4?
A. It produces more carbon-14.
B. It helps identify fake paintings.
C. it reduces carbon concentration.
D. It has been stopped completely.
15. Which of the following is the best title for the text?
A. Paintings waiting to be identified
B. Two fake paintings found in France
C. New technology in painting becomes a hit
D. Radiocarbon dating proves an anti-fake helper
【答案】12. B 13. C 14. A 15. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了放射性碳测年法在画作防伪上的应用，工作原理。但是原子弹测试也会产生碳-14，会影响检测精度。
【12题详解】
词句猜测题。根据划线词下文“If there is a chance that a painting is genuine — and therefore valuable — they don’t want the collection of larger samples to damage it.(如果一幅画有可能是真实的，因此很有价值，他们不希望收集更大的样本会损坏它)”可知，推知划线词所在句子意为“从艺术品中去除较小的样本正变得越来越适合博物馆和绘画所有者”。由此可知，划线词palatable与acceptable“认同的，认可的”意思接近。故选B。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中“All living things take in carbon, including radioactive carbon-14, from the atmosphere and from food. When a plant commonly used to make oil painting cloth dies, the carbon-14 that it contained continues to fall off. Radiocarbon dating measures what’s left to estimate the time that’s passed.(所有生物都从大气和食物中吸收碳，包括放射性碳-14。当通常用于制作油画布的植物死亡时，其中所含的碳-14会继续脱落。放射性碳测年法测量剩余的时间来估计经过的时间)”可知，放射性碳测年是通过测量剩余的碳-14来估算经过的时间的。故选C。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段中“Atomic-bomb (原子弹) testing, which began in the 1940s and took off in the 1950s, quickly increased the amount of carbon-l4 in the atmosphere. (原子弹测试始于1940年代，并于1950年代起飞，迅速增加了大气中碳-l4的含量)”可知，原子弹测试产生了大量的碳-14。故选A。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段中“Radiocarbon dating has revealed two fake (伪造的) paintings in France — probably the first time the technique has been used in a police investigation. The paintings were supposedly works from around the early twentieth century. (放射性碳测年法在法国发现了两幅伪造的画作，这可能是该技术首次用于警方调查。这些画据说是二十世纪初左右的作品)”可知，文章主要讲述的内容是放射性碳测年法在画作防伪上的应用。由此可知，Radiocarbon dating proves an anti-fake helper(放射性碳约会证明是一个反假助手)适合作本文最佳标题。故选D。

47. 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成篇完整的短文。
As I stood in line waiting to cash out at a “pack your own” kind of store, where customers pack their items by themselves, I stared at the customer in front of me reading the magazines. She was young, but she already had a tired look to her, with heads bent forwards—as if life had beaten her down too many times.
Her face looked pale from extreme tiredness. Her winter coat was thin and unbuttoned. The well-worn scarf around her throat probably did little to protect it from the cold weather. Her hands turning a few pages, were rough and red. When I looked down at her boots, I could see a small piece of a clear plastic bag partially visible through a hole in her left boot.
The items in her cart (购物车) included the cheapest cuts of meat and some things like rice and potatoes. There were also lots of noodles. Day-old bread, inexpensive soap, and tissues on sale—well, almost. In a far corner sat a little toy and a pretty dress that was 50 percent off.
She continued to look at the magazines as we waited, and more people lined up behind us. She finally took one out and turned it over several times, trying to find a price before finally turning to me.
“I’m sorry to bother you,” she began in a shy and nervous tone. “But can you tell me how much this is? I forgot my glasses at home.”
“Of course” I said with a smile.
When I finally found the small print and told her, she shook her head and put it back.
“They’ve become so expensive, haven’t they?” I said sympathetically.
“Next!” The cashier called in a gentle voice before she could answer, and she moved forward to begin her transaction(交易)
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。
When told the cost, the woman’s face paled.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
I approached the cashier and whispered “Include her removed items in my bill, please.”
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】One possible version:
When told the cost, the woman’s face paled. She opened a worn-out change purse, counting small bills and change. With a deep breath, she scanned her groceries to see what she could do without. One by one, she removed things, but she still came up short. She continued to get rid of much-needed goods while the cashier patiently took away things with a pleased smile, setting them aside. The woman finally cut back on her groceries, paid, and moved down to pack them.
I approached the cashier and whispered “Include her removed items in my bill, please!” She nodded knowingly, winking at me and finishing the transaction. I moved next, wondering how to slide the extra things into her old cart. The cashier solved the problem by “accidentally” dropping several oranges which flew past the lady. “I’ll get those,” the woman offered kindly to pick up the runaway fruit. I quickly finished our plan. Then, my thoughts wandered to the lady who was enjoying a hearty delicious dish with her little girl.
