Wrking in undergraduate admissins at Dartmuth Cllege has intrduced me t many talented yung peple thrugh their cllege applicatins. The prblem is that many remarkable students becme indistinguishable frm ne anther, at least n paper. It is incredibly difficult t chse whm t admit.
The greatest surprise I’ve ever cme acrss in my admissins career came frm a student wh went t a large public schl in New England. He was clearly bright, as evidenced by his class rank and teachers’ praise. He had a supprtive recmmendatin frm his cllege headmaster and an impressive list f extracurriculars. Even with these qualificatins, he might nt have std ut. But ne letter f recmmendatin caught my eye. It was frm a schl drkeeper.
This letter was different. The drkeeper wrte that he felt it necessary t supprt this student because f his thughtfulness. This yung man was the nly persn in the schl wh knew the names f every member f the cleaning staff. He turned ff lights in empty rms, cnsistently thanked the hallway mnitr each mrning and tidied up after his peers even if nbdy was watching. This student, the drkeeper wrte, had a refreshing respect fr every persn at the schl, regardless f psitin, ppularity r influence.
Over 15years and 30,000 applicatins in my admissins career, I had never seen a recmmendatin frm a schl drkeeper. It gave us a new lens int a student’s life in the mments when nthing “cunted.” That student was admitted by a shared vte f the admissins cmmittee.
Next year there might be a fld f drkeeper recmmendatins thanks t this essay. But if it means students will start paying as much attentin t the peple wh clean their classrms as they d t their principals and teachers, I’m happy t help start that trend. But the stry shuldn’t stp there.
24. What mainly leads t the authr’s difficulty in chsing whm t admit?
A. The grwing number f applicants.B. The limited recruiting guidance.
C. The varied versins f applicatins.D. The verall excellence f applicants.
25. Why did the recmmendatin letter stand ut?
A. It prvided a new angle int the candidate’s qualities.
B. It spared the rutine elements and wrked wnders.
C. It was written by a drkeeper withut telling the student.
D. It catered t the authr’s inner criteria fr cllege applicants.
26. Which f the fllwing best describes the student supprted by the drkeeper?
A. Mdest and admirable.B. Intelligent and adventurus.
C. Kind and thughtful.D. Open-minded and utging.
27. What des the authr suggest undergraduates d with the case mentined in Paragraph 3?
A. Recmmend it t friends.B. Explre further behind it.
C. Use it as needed.D. Evaluate its effects.

“Fr thusands f years, humans have raced t be the first t climb a peak, crss a frntier, r dcument a new species r landscape. Nw in sme cases, we’re racing t be the last,” said New Yrk Times’ Paige McClanahan.
In recent years, a grwing industry has been stimulated by climate change—last-chance turism. Accrding t Ec Sustainable Slutins, a UK-based rganic recycling and waste prcessing cmpany. last-chance turism is a kind f turism geared tward seeing the last f smething due t climate change. As temperatures and water levels rise, this culd mean seizing the last chance t see the Great Barrier Reef, an Arctic glacier and a remte island that is sinking.
As millins f turists rush t imperiled destinatins, sme are taking advantage f the increasing demand t spread envirnmental awareness. One turist spt, the Sea f Ice in France, pened an exhibit in 2021 t educate visitrs n glaciers and climate change. This educatinal push seems t be having an impact, as a 2023 survey shwed that 80% f the visitrs wuld try t learn mre abut the envirnment and hw t prtect it while 77% said that they wuld reduce their water and energy use.
Hwever, the last-chance turism industry may becme kind f ur cncern. As mre and mre peple fl d int these areas in a panic t see them befre they are gne, they in fact cntribute t the increased greenhuse gas emissins and verturism, leading t their destructin. Just as many schlars put it, last-chance turism is a paradx（悖论）.
Althugh turists may acknwledge the brader risks and imprtance f climate change, it’s even mre imprtant t cnnect the respnsibility f the individual turism t the future f ur planet. It’s nt just abut understanding the need t stp climate change; it’s even mre imprtant t avid making it wrse.
28. What des the authr intend t d by quting Paige McClanahan’s wrds?
A. T highlight the value f New Yrk Times.
B. T recall and memrize the gd ld days.
C. T channel readers’ awareness t climate change.
D. T intrduce the subject f last-chance turism.
29. What may be cnsidered as last-chance turism?
A. Visiting the Cnfucius Temple in China.
B. Taking an adventurus trip t the depths f the cean.
C. Climbing the snw-cvered muntain f Kilimanjar.
D. Admiring the unique Spanish architecture at Cusc, Peru.
30. What des the underlined wrd “imperiled” in Paragraph 3 mst likely mean?
A. Ppular.B. Remte.C. Endangered.D. Preserved.
31. Which f the fllwing statements best describes last-chance turism?
A. It’s a duble-edged swrd.B. It’s a stne t kill tw birds.
C. It’s a life jacket in the strmy sea.D. It’s a dream that will never cme true.

The high intelligence levels f rangutans（红毛猩猩）have lng been recgnised, partly due t their practical skills such as using tls t crack nuts and search fr insects. But new research suggests the primate（灵长动物）has anther handy skill: applying medicinal herbs intentinally t an pen wund.
A male Sumatran rangutan knwn as Rakus was bserved by the research team with a fresh facial wund in June 2022. Three days later, Rakus was witnessed feeding n the stem and leaves f a plant. Thirteen minutes after Rakus had started feeding n it, he began chewing the leaves withut swallwing them, then used his fingers t apply the resulting juice directly n t his facial wund. He repeated this behavir fr seven minutes and at last fully cvered the wund with the chewed leaves. He then cntinued feeding n the plant fr 30 minutes. Over the fllwing days, there were n signs f infectin. The wund clsed within five days and was healed, with nly a faint scar remaining after ne mnth.
It is nt the first time wild primate species have been sptted self-medicating: amng ther examples, Brnean rangutans have been seen rubbing their arms and legs with chewed leaves frm a plant used by humans t treat sre muscles, while chimpanzees have been recrded chewing plants knwn t treat wrm infectins and applying insects t wunds. Hwever, the new discvery is the first time a wild animal has been bserved treating pen wunds with a substance knwn t have medicinal prperties. “In the chimpanzee case they used insects and unfrtunately it was never fund ut whether these insects really prmte wund healing. Whereas in ur case, the rangutan used the plant, and this plant has knwn medical prperties,” said Dr Carline Schuppli, senir authr f the research.
Rakus’s gal-riented behavir and the medicinal prperties f his chsen treatment ffer insight int the rigins f human wund care-the treatment f which was first mentined in a medical manuscript dating t 2200BC. “It definitely shws that these basic cgnitive capacities that yu need t cme up with a behaviur like this were present at the time f ur last cmmn ancestr mst likely,” said Schuppli.
It remains unclear whether Rakus figured the prcess ut fr himself r learned it frm anther rangutan, althugh it has nt been seen in any ther individual.
32. Hw did the team cnduct their research?
A. By analyzing previus recrds.B. By tracking the research bject.
C. By quting thers’ findings.D. By categrizing qualities f primates.
33. What sets this new case apart frm the previus nes?
A. The primate’s awareness f herb selectin.B. The lcatins f the wild primates.
C. The sizes f the applicatin range.D. The utcme f the treatment.
34. What is Paragraph 4 mainly abut?
A. Supprting evidence fr the research results.
B. Ptential significance f the research findings.
C. A further explanatin f the research summary.
D. A reasnable dubt abut the research prcess.
35. What will the fllw-up study fcus n?
A. The rigin f Rakus’ intentinal self-medicatin.
B. Different medicinal plants used by wild primates.
C. Active wund treatment s shared by humans and primates
D. The pssible influence frm Rakus’ family.

Is Breakfast Really the Mst Imprtant Meal f the Day?
Breakfast has been made ut t be ne f the mst imprtant meals f the day. It’s cnsidered a serius mistake t skip it. And we’ll even g s far as t shame peple fr ding s. 36 ?
There’s news abut hw breakfast is vital fr ur health and ther news abut hw it’s nt. 37 . What shuld we d with all this back-and-frth science? Knwing abut the fllwing tricky science f breakfast will help us see better.
38
One study grup lked at the cmmn claim that skipping breakfast causes weight gain. Their 2013 analysis fund past studies used imprper language which suggested a causal relatinship between skipping breakfast and besity. The relatinship in sme cases indeed may be mre crrelative（相互关联的）than cause-and-effect.
Unscientific methds
There’s a whle bdy f research that cnnects breakfast with weight lss. But the methds behind a lt f thse studies dn’t always hld up. 39 . Mrever, they ignre a majr factr: what we eat fr breakfast.
Prfit-seeking funders
The ften quted reprts abut the benefits f breakfast are mainly funded by breakfast cereal（早餐麦片）cmpanies, such as Kellggs r Quaker Oats. Fr them, it is a marketing strategy. 40 .
It’s hard t say whether r nt breakfast has any amazing health benefits. What we d knw is that breakfast’s greatest imprtance is undeserved, given the current scientific literature available. In this case, the simplest advice might be the best. Just listen t yur wn bdy and d whatever wrks best fr yu.
A. Flding studies
B. Misleading language
C. But what really happens when we dn’t eat breakfast
D. But is breakfast’s tp spt amng three meals deserved
E. Mst f the headlines claim t be based n the results n scientific studies
F. Their businesses depend n peple’s believing that breakfast means ready-t-eat cereal
G. They aren’t actually testing what wuld happen if we were t change ur breakfast behavir

Math had never been smething I was gd at since middle schl. Classes became harder in high schl, and I was even further frm a math teacher’s dream student. S at the start f my freshman year, I had a dislike t math. It wasn’t that I didn’t want t d well, but simply that I didn’t think I was able t d well. “I can’t” became my state f mind in all things related t math.
Hwever, I was sn t learn that “I can’t” was nt a chice in Mr. A’s class.
Mr. A always greeted us with pen arms as he said, “Welcme! Smile! It’s a great day t be alive!” It was clear that Mr. A had a true passin nt nly fr math but fr teaching. If Mr. A ever experienced bad days in life, he never shwed it. Mr. A greeted us with that same smile every day. He encuraged each student, frm the tp achiever t the “I can’t” student.
I fund myself lking frward t math class. Being in Mr. A’s presence made me feel gd, as if I had the chance t succeed, althugh I still hated the subject itself. Frm then n, I had spent cuntless hurs studying, but with s many difficulties t cver, I was verwhelmed. The pressure f the subject was weighing heavily n my shulders. I had always been a hardwrking and dedicated student, but the stress seemed unbearable. N matter hw much effrt I put int math, I culdn’t seem t keep up. As the mid-term exams apprached, I felt a sense f dread. The fear f failure cnsumed me, and I began t dubt myself again.
One day after schl, I fund myself walking alngside Mr. A n the empty playgrund. He culd tell that smething was bthering me, and he asked if everything was alright. I hesitated fr a mment, unsure f whether t share my struggles.

But there was smething in his kind eyes that made me pen up. I pured ut my frustratins, explaining hw hard I had been wrking and hw little prgress I was making.

Smething different seemed t have shifted in my study and life. Instead f letting the stress cnsume me, I started lking fr ways t manage the study pressure mre effectively. The day f the exam came.

Reading bks can expand ur knwledge f the wrld. UNESCO established April 23rd as Wrld Bk and Cpyright Day in 1995. D yu knw its histry? Setting aside a day t celebrate bks traces its beginnings t the Spanish writer Vicente Clavel Andrés. In 1922, he prpsed the idea as a way t hnr the authr, Miguel de Cervantes. Fur years later, the first celebratin tk place n Octber 7th, Miguel’s birthday, but the later celebratin was mved t April 23rd, the date f his death, in 1930. In 1995, the UNESCO General Cnference decided t shw respect fr authrs and bks wrldwide as a way f encuraging everyne t access bks. Chsing April 23rd seemed a lgical chice. Besides being the date f Miguel’s death, it als happens t be the date when William Shakespeare died, and sme ther imprtant authrs’ birthdays. Annually since 2001, ne city arund the wrld has been chsen t be the UNESCO Wrld Bk Capital fr a year. The selected city will carry ut activities t encurage “a culture f reading and sharing its values in all ages and ppulatin grups in and ut f the natinal brders”. The idea was put frward by Spain in 2001, and Madrid was designated the first capital, fllwed by Alexandria and then New Delhi.题号

Wrking in undergraduate admissins at Dartmuth Cllege has intrduced me t many talented yung peple thrugh their cllege applicatins. The prblem is that many remarkable students becme indistinguishable frm ne anther, at least n paper. It is incredibly difficult t chse whm t admit.
The greatest surprise I’ve ever cme acrss in my admissins career came frm a student wh went t a large public schl in New England. He was clearly bright, as evidenced by his class rank and teachers’ praise. He had a supprtive recmmendatin frm his cllege headmaster and an impressive list f extracurriculars. Even with these qualificatins, he might nt have std ut. But ne letter f recmmendatin caught my eye. It was frm a schl drkeeper.
This letter was different. The drkeeper wrte that he felt it necessary t supprt this student because f his thughtfulness. This yung man was the nly persn in the schl wh knew the names f every member f the cleaning staff. He turned ff lights in empty rms, cnsistently thanked the hallway mnitr each mrning and tidied up after his peers even if nbdy was watching. This student, the drkeeper wrte, had a refreshing respect fr every persn at the schl, regardless f psitin, ppularity r influence.
Over 15years and 30,000 applicatins in my admissins career, I had never seen a recmmendatin frm a schl drkeeper. It gave us a new lens int a student’s life in the mments when nthing “cunted.” That student was admitted by a shared vte f the admissins cmmittee.
Next year there might be a fld f drkeeper recmmendatins thanks t this essay. But if it means students will start paying as much attentin t the peple wh clean their classrms as they d t their principals and teachers, I’m happy t help start that trend. But the stry shuldn’t stp there.
24. What mainly leads t the authr’s difficulty in chsing whm t admit?
A. The grwing number f applicants.B. The limited recruiting guidance.
C. The varied versins f applicatins.D. The verall excellence f applicants.
25. Why did the recmmendatin letter stand ut?
A. It prvided a new angle int the candidate’s qualities.
B. It spared the rutine elements and wrked wnders.
C. It was written by a drkeeper withut telling the student.
D. It catered t the authr’s inner criteria fr cllege applicants.
26. Which f the fllwing best describes the student supprted by the drkeeper?
A. Mdest and admirable.B. Intelligent and adventurus.
C. Kind and thughtful.D. Open-minded and utging.
27. What des the authr suggest undergraduates d with the case mentined in Paragraph 3?
A. Recmmend it t friends.B. Explre further behind it.
C. Use it as needed.D. Evaluate its effects.

“Fr thusands f years, humans have raced t be the first t climb a peak, crss a frntier, r dcument a new species r landscape. Nw in sme cases, we’re racing t be the last,” said New Yrk Times’ Paige McClanahan.
In recent years, a grwing industry has been stimulated by climate change—last-chance turism. Accrding t Ec Sustainable Slutins, a UK-based rganic recycling and waste prcessing cmpany. last-chance turism is a kind f turism geared tward seeing the last f smething due t climate change. As temperatures and water levels rise, this culd mean seizing the last chance t see the Great Barrier Reef, an Arctic glacier and a remte island that is sinking.
As millins f turists rush t imperiled destinatins, sme are taking advantage f the increasing demand t spread envirnmental awareness. One turist spt, the Sea f Ice in France, pened an exhibit in 2021 t educate visitrs n glaciers and climate change. This educatinal push seems t be having an impact, as a 2023 survey shwed that 80% f the visitrs wuld try t learn mre abut the envirnment and hw t prtect it while 77% said that they wuld reduce their water and energy use.
Hwever, the last-chance turism industry may becme kind f ur cncern. As mre and mre peple fl d int these areas in a panic t see them befre they are gne, they in fact cntribute t the increased greenhuse gas emissins and verturism, leading t their destructin. Just as many schlars put it, last-chance turism is a paradx（悖论）.
Althugh turists may acknwledge the brader risks and imprtance f climate change, it’s even mre imprtant t cnnect the respnsibility f the individual turism t the future f ur planet. It’s nt just abut understanding the need t stp climate change; it’s even mre imprtant t avid making it wrse.
28. What des the authr intend t d by quting Paige McClanahan’s wrds?
A. T highlight the value f New Yrk Times.
B. T recall and memrize the gd ld days.
C. T channel readers’ awareness t climate change.
D. T intrduce the subject f last-chance turism.
29. What may be cnsidered as last-chance turism?
A. Visiting the Cnfucius Temple in China.
B. Taking an adventurus trip t the depths f the cean.
C. Climbing the snw-cvered muntain f Kilimanjar.
D. Admiring the unique Spanish architecture at Cusc, Peru.
30. What des the underlined wrd “imperiled” in Paragraph 3 mst likely mean?
A. Ppular.B. Remte.C. Endangered.D. Preserved.
31. Which f the fllwing statements best describes last-chance turism?
A. It’s a duble-edged swrd.B. It’s a stne t kill tw birds.
C. It’s a life jacket in the strmy sea.D. It’s a dream that will never cme true.

The high intelligence levels f rangutans（红毛猩猩）have lng been recgnised, partly due t their practical skills such as using tls t crack nuts and search fr insects. But new research suggests the primate（灵长动物）has anther handy skill: applying medicinal herbs intentinally t an pen wund.
A male Sumatran rangutan knwn as Rakus was bserved by the research team with a fresh facial wund in June 2022. Three days later, Rakus was witnessed feeding n the stem and leaves f a plant. Thirteen minutes after Rakus had started feeding n it, he began chewing the leaves withut swallwing them, then used his fingers t apply the resulting juice directly n t his facial wund. He repeated this behavir fr seven minutes and at last fully cvered the wund with the chewed leaves. He then cntinued feeding n the plant fr 30 minutes. Over the fllwing days, there were n signs f infectin. The wund clsed within five days and was healed, with nly a faint scar remaining after ne mnth.
It is nt the first time wild primate species have been sptted self-medicating: amng ther examples, Brnean rangutans have been seen rubbing their arms and legs with chewed leaves frm a plant used by humans t treat sre muscles, while chimpanzees have been recrded chewing plants knwn t treat wrm infectins and applying insects t wunds. Hwever, the new discvery is the first time a wild animal has been bserved treating pen wunds with a substance knwn t have medicinal prperties. “In the chimpanzee case they used insects and unfrtunately it was never fund ut whether these insects really prmte wund healing. Whereas in ur case, the rangutan used the plant, and this plant has knwn medical prperties,” said Dr Carline Schuppli, senir authr f the research.
Rakus’s gal-riented behavir and the medicinal prperties f his chsen treatment ffer insight int the rigins f human wund care-the treatment f which was first mentined in a medical manuscript dating t 2200BC. “It definitely shws that these basic cgnitive capacities that yu need t cme up with a behaviur like this were present at the time f ur last cmmn ancestr mst likely,” said Schuppli.
It remains unclear whether Rakus figured the prcess ut fr himself r learned it frm anther rangutan, althugh it has nt been seen in any ther individual.
32. Hw did the team cnduct their research?
A. By analyzing previus recrds.B. By tracking the research bject.
C. By quting thers’ findings.D. By categrizing qualities f primates.
33. What sets this new case apart frm the previus nes?
A. The primate’s awareness f herb selectin.B. The lcatins f the wild primates.
C. The sizes f the applicatin range.D. The utcme f the treatment.
34. What is Paragraph 4 mainly abut?
A. Supprting evidence fr the research results.
B. Ptential significance f the research findings.
C. A further explanatin f the research summary.
D. A reasnable dubt abut the research prcess.
35. What will the fllw-up study fcus n?
A. The rigin f Rakus’ intentinal self-medicatin.
B. Different medicinal plants used by wild primates.
C. Active wund treatment s shared by humans and primates
D. The pssible influence frm Rakus’ family.

Is Breakfast Really the Mst Imprtant Meal f the Day?
Breakfast has been made ut t be ne f the mst imprtant meals f the day. It’s cnsidered a serius mistake t skip it. And we’ll even g s far as t shame peple fr ding s. 36 ?
There’s news abut hw breakfast is vital fr ur health and ther news abut hw it’s nt. 37 . What shuld we d with all this back-and-frth science? Knwing abut the fllwing tricky science f breakfast will help us see better.
38
One study grup lked at the cmmn claim that skipping breakfast causes weight gain. Their 2013 analysis fund past studies used imprper language which suggested a causal relatinship between skipping breakfast and besity. The relatinship in sme cases indeed may be mre crrelative（相互关联的）than cause-and-effect.
Unscientific methds
There’s a whle bdy f research that cnnects breakfast with weight lss. But the methds behind a lt f thse studies dn’t always hld up. 39 . Mrever, they ignre a majr factr: what we eat fr breakfast.
Prfit-seeking funders
The ften quted reprts abut the benefits f breakfast are mainly funded by breakfast cereal（早餐麦片）cmpanies, such as Kellggs r Quaker Oats. Fr them, it is a marketing strategy. 40 .
It’s hard t say whether r nt breakfast has any amazing health benefits. What we d knw is that breakfast’s greatest imprtance is undeserved, given the current scientific literature available. In this case, the simplest advice might be the best. Just listen t yur wn bdy and d whatever wrks best fr yu.
A. Flding studies
B. Misleading language
C. But what really happens when we dn’t eat breakfast
D. But is breakfast’s tp spt amng three meals deserved
E. Mst f the headlines claim t be based n the results n scientific studies
F. Their businesses depend n peple’s believing that breakfast means ready-t-eat cereal
G. They aren’t actually testing what wuld happen if we were t change ur breakfast behavir

Math had never been smething I was gd at since middle schl. Classes became harder in high schl, and I was even further frm a math teacher’s dream student. S at the start f my freshman year, I had a dislike t math. It wasn’t that I didn’t want t d well, but simply that I didn’t think I was able t d well. “I can’t” became my state f mind in all things related t math.
Hwever, I was sn t learn that “I can’t” was nt a chice in Mr. A’s class.
Mr. A always greeted us with pen arms as he said, “Welcme! Smile! It’s a great day t be alive!” It was clear that Mr. A had a true passin nt nly fr math but fr teaching. If Mr. A ever experienced bad days in life, he never shwed it. Mr. A greeted us with that same smile every day. He encuraged each student, frm the tp achiever t the “I can’t” student.
I fund myself lking frward t math class. Being in Mr. A’s presence made me feel gd, as if I had the chance t succeed, althugh I still hated the subject itself. Frm then n, I had spent cuntless hurs studying, but with s many difficulties t cver, I was verwhelmed. The pressure f the subject was weighing heavily n my shulders. I had always been a hardwrking and dedicated student, but the stress seemed unbearable. N matter hw much effrt I put int math, I culdn’t seem t keep up. As the mid-term exams apprached, I felt a sense f dread. The fear f failure cnsumed me, and I began t dubt myself again.
One day after schl, I fund myself walking alngside Mr. A n the empty playgrund. He culd tell that smething was bthering me, and he asked if everything was alright. I hesitated fr a mment, unsure f whether t share my struggles.
注意：
1.续写词数应为150左右；

Reading bks can expand ur knwledge f the wrld. UNESCO established April 23rd as Wrld Bk and Cpyright Day in 1995. D yu knw its histry? Setting aside a day t celebrate bks traces its beginnings t the Spanish writer Vicente Clavel Andrés. In 1922, he prpsed the idea as a way t hnr the authr, Miguel de Cervantes. Fur years later, the first celebratin tk place n Octber 7th, Miguel’s birthday, but the later celebratin was mved t April 23rd, the date f his death, in 1930. In 1995, the UNESCO General Cnference decided t shw respect fr authrs and bks wrldwide as a way f encuraging everyne t access bks. Chsing April 23rd seemed a lgical chice. Besides being the date f Miguel’s death, it als happens t be the date when William Shakespeare died, and sme ther imprtant authrs’ birthdays. Annually since 2001, ne city arund the wrld has been chsen t be the UNESCO Wrld Bk Capital fr a year.
