The only thing I could do was sit by the road and hope someone would come by and help me. Luckily, a man drove by after about 20 minutes. He stopped and asked if he could lend a hand. He let me use his cell phone to call the rescue service. He even waited with me, keeping me company until the truck for rescue service arrived. What a wonderful, helpful man! Before he left, I offered to pay him for helping me, but he refused. He said it was his pleasure to help out a lady in trouble. All I could do was thank him over and over again. If it had not been for him, I could have been in real trouble. I asked him for his number and promised to meet him and have dinner sometime. I got very lucky that night, thanks to the stranger.

Maggie Perkins had been working as a teacher in Georgia for nearly five years before she decided to “quiet quit” her job. The decision didn’t mean leaving her position, but rather limiting her work to her contract (合约) hours. Nothing more, nothing less. “If I didn’t quiet quit my teaching job, I would burn out,” she says.
Like Perkins, “quiet quitters” on Tik Tok defend their choice to take a step back from work, but company managers and workplace experts argue that although doing less might feel good in the short term, it could harm your career—and your company—in the long run.
In the wake of the global pandemic and the Great Resignation, employees began to reimagine what work could look like. Gallup’s State of the Global Workplace report in June found job dissatisfaction at an all-time high, with 60% reporting emotional detachment (分离) from work. Disengaged workers cost the global economy an estimated $7.8 trillion in lost productivity and an economic slowdown.
Now, companies have become sensitive to worker burnout. Gergo Vari, CEO of job board platform Lensa, advocates an alternative to quiet quitting: “loudly persisting”. That is, empowering employees to speak up about how their organization can serve their goals. “When you loudly persist, you have a sense of belonging to the company,” he says.
Career coach Allison Peck says she views “quiet quitting” as a symptom of employees not connecting to their work or managers. Her career advice for quiet quitters is to take even braver action. “Finding a new job, team, or company that better suit you can improve your mindset at work,” she says.
Some workers, though, say that companies’ concerns about “quiet quitting” are unfounded. Shini Ko, a software developer, has set limits on her hours and now runs a small-scale vegetable farm in her spare time. “It’s negative and dangerous that we regard a healthy work-life balance as quitting,” says Ko. “Can we just call it what it is? It’s just working.”
24. What is paragraph 1 mainly about?
A. An example of quiet quitters. B. An excuse for quiet quitting.
C. The limitation of contract hours. D. The working conditions of teachers.
25. What’s the consequence of “quiet quitting” according to the report?
A. It cost the disengaged workers an estimated $7. 8 trillion.
B. It caused the global pandemic and the Great Resignation.
C. It held economy back and reduced workers’ productivity.
D. It resulted in employees’ job dissatisfaction in the long run.
26. What can we infer from Gergo Vari’s words?
A. Companies don’t have to worry about worker burnout.
B. Companies should persist loudly to serve workers’ goals.
C. Employees can ask for a short break while feeling worn out.
D. Employees can voice their opinions on the company’s management.
27. What is Shini Ko’s attitude towards companies’ concerns about “quiet quitting”?
A. Unreasonable. B. Unforgivable.
C. Unexpected. D. Uncertain.
【答案】24. A 25. C 26. D 27. A
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。指出现在员工工作的一个状态：“安静地辞职”，这不是真正的辞职，而是放弃努力进取的想法，只为完成职责。
【24题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段第一句“Maggie Perkins had been working as a teacher in Georgia for nearly five years before she decided to “quiet quit” her job.（Maggie Perkins在乔治亚州当了将近五年的老师，之后她决定“安静地辞掉”她的工作。）”可知第一段以玛吉·帕金斯为例，提出“安静的辞职者”这一概念 ，根据第二段第一句“Like Perkins, “quiet quitters” on Tik Tok defend their choice to take a step back from work（和Maggie Perkins一样，抖音上的“安静的辞职者”也为他们选择从工作中后退一步进行辩护）”可知第二段延续第一段提出的概念进一步讨论，即第一段为举出实例。故选A项。
【25题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段最后一句“Disengaged workers cost the global economy an estimated $7.8 trillion in lost productivity and an economic slowdown.（闲散的员工使全球经济损失了约7.8万亿美元的生产力和经济放缓。）”可知“安静地辞职”这一行为导致员工生产力下降，经济发展后退。故选C项。
【26题详解】
推理判断题题。根据第四段二三句“Gergo Vari, CEO of job board platform Lensa, advocates an alternative to quiet quitting: “loudly persisting”. That is, empowering employees to speak up about how their organization can serve their goals.（求职平台Lensa的首席执行官Gergo Vari提倡一种替代“安静地辞职”的方法：“大声坚持”。也就是说，允许员工向他们的组织明确表态，组织要如何满足他们的目标。）”可知Gergo Vari建议员工能够在公司管理方面发声，说出自己的看法。故选D项。
【27题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段第一句“Some workers, though, say that companies’ concerns about “quiet quitting” are unfounded.（不过，一些员工表示，公司对“安静地辞职”的担忧是没有根据的。）”可知，这些员工认为公司不应该担忧这种现象，正常的工作本该如此。且倒数第二句“It’s negative and dangerous that we regard a healthy work-life balance as quitting（我们将保持工作与生活之间健康的平衡视为辞职，这是消极和危险的）”可知Shini Ko就是最后一段认为公司的担忧毫无依据、不合理的代表之一，即Shini Ko认为公司的担忧不合理。故选A项。
C
“Doc, my wife’s breast cancer has come back and spread to her bones”. My friend’s eyes filled with tears when he spoke those chilling words. Like millions of other cancer patients, his wife had been treated successfully. Cancer recurrence is never a good sign, but it doesn’t mean you have to give up hope. Over the past decade, powerful new treatments have been developed to fight most stubborn cancers. Most, however, are still being tested in so-called clinical trials, and getting yourself enrolled in one takes some doing.
Clinical trials are research studies on human patients to test the safety and effectiveness of new treatments. There are hundreds of clinical cancer trials under way, involving thousands of patients. What most people don’t realize is that the scientists who conduct these studies need test subjects almost as badly as the subjects need treatment, and that lately the scientists have been running short of willing participants. At a conference on clinical trials held recently in Alexandria, Virginia, researchers trying to devise strategies for signing up more patients noted that one of the reasons there has been so much progress in treating pediatric(小儿科的)cancers in the US over the past 20 years is that 60% of all children with cancer are enrolled in some kind of trial. With adults, enrollment falls off dramatically, to only 2% to 3% of eligible patients.
Why is this? Partly it’s owing to patient misconceptions. “Patients are concerned if they enter a clinical trial that they may be part of the unlucky group that gets the placebo or ‘dummy treatment’ and not the real medicine,” says Dr. Bob Comis, president of the National Cancer Cooperative Groups. They think the placebo group get no treatment at all, when in act it gets whatever is considered the best current standard of care.
Cost shouldn’t be a consideration. Most clinical trials are free to patients; some even pay their subjects. Insurance companies in the past have been reluctant to cover the non-experimental part of the treatment, but they are starting to come around.
Now it is true that research scientists don’t always have the best bedside manner, and sometimes they unnecessarily keep patients in the dark. And the consent forms are often so encrusted with medical jargon that some patients joke.
28. What is the writer’s general attitude towards cancer recurrence?
A. Sympathetic. B. frustrated. C. optimistic. D. discouraged.
29. What can we learn about clinical cancer trials?
A. Some clinical trials show that new treatments are safe and effective.
B. The scientists are lacking in cancer patients in their clinical trials.
C. There is much progress in treating adults with cancer in clinical trials.
D. Researchers have found ways of curing 60% of all children with cancer.
30. Which of the following is the closest in meaning to the underlined word “dummy” in Paragraph 3?
A. Fee and effective. B. harmless but ineffective.
C. free and harmful. D. expensive but effective.
31. Which of the following best summarizes the main idea of this passage?
A. Cancer patients in clinical trials enjoy the best current standard of care.
B. Why adults with cancer are unwilling to sign up for clinical trials.
C. Clinical cancer trials are under way, though with some problems.
D. Cancer recurrence is curable in clinical trials.
【答案】28. C 29. B 30. B 31. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了癌症大多数疫苗临床试验都正在进行中，尽管存在一些问题。
【28题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段“Cancer recurrence is never a good sign, but it doesn’t mean you have to give up hope. Over the past decade, powerful new treatments have been developed to fight most stubborn cancers. Most, however, are still being tested in so-called clinical trials, and getting yourself enrolled in one takes some doing. (癌症复发从来都不是一个好迹象，但这并不意味着你必须放弃希望。在过去的十年里，人们开发出了强大的新疗法来对抗大多数顽固的癌症。然而，大多数疫苗仍在所谓的临床试验中进行测试，让自己参加一项试验需要一些努力。)”可推断，作者对癌症复发的总体态度是乐观的。故选C。
【29题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“What most people don’t realize is that the scientists who conduct these studies need test subjects almost as badly as the subjects need treatment, and that lately the scientists have been running short of willing participants. At a conference on clinical trials held recently in Alexandria, Virginia, researchers trying to devise strategies for signing up more patients noted that one of the reasons there has been so much progress in treating pediatric(小儿科的)cancers in the US over the past 20 years is that 60% of all children with cancer are enrolled in some kind of trial. With adults, enrollment falls off dramatically, to only 2% to 3% of eligible patients. (大多数人没有意识到的是，进行这些研究的科学家对测试对象的需求几乎就像研究对象对治疗的需求一样迫切，而且最近科学家们一直缺少愿意参与研究的人。最近在弗吉尼亚州亚历山德里亚举行的一场临床试验会议上，试图为更多患者注册制定策略的研究人员指出，过去20年美国儿科癌症治疗取得如此巨大进展的原因之一是，60%的癌症儿童都参加了某种类型的试验。对于成年人来说，注册人数急剧下降，只有2%到3%的符合条件的患者。)”可知，科学家在临床试验中缺乏癌症患者。故选B。
【30题详解】
词句猜测题。根据划线词前半句“Patients are concerned if they enter a clinical trial that they may be part of the unlucky group that gets the placebo (患者担心，如果他们参加临床试验，他们可能是不幸的那一组，得到的是安慰剂)”和后半句“and not the real medicine(而不是真正的药物)”可推断，患者担心得到是假治疗，即无害但无效的治疗。所以dummy为“假的”之意。故选B。
【31题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段“Most, however, are still being tested in so-called clinical trials, and getting yourself enrolled in one takes some doing. (然而，大多数疫苗仍在所谓的临床试验中进行测试，让自己参加一项试验需要一些努力。)”及全文可知，文章主要介绍了癌症大多数疫苗临床试验都正在进行中，尽管存在一些问题。故选C。
D
You don’t need to be an expert to recognize luna moths (蚕蛾). They have hairy white bodies, red legs and huge green wings that stretch up to 4.5 inches across. And at the end of their wings are a pair of long tails that have attracted scientists for centuries.
Some of them theorized that it was possible that female moths judged the health and quality of a male by the size of his tails. But it turned out that female moths were not choosy at all. They just mate with the first males they could find. Others believed that the tails could increase luna moths’ size to make them harder for the bats-the main enemy of luna moths—to handle. But the theory proved wrong in 1903 when a scientist named Archibald Weeks put bats against a bigger species of moths that lacked tails. He found that the bats killed 66% of their targets. Luna moths, despite being smaller, were harder to catch. “Clearly, their tails provided an anti-bat advantage,” Weeks observed. “I think they were used to direct bats away from the moths’ body.”
He was roughly right. More than a century later, Jesse Barber from Boise State University put luna moths against bats in a dark room and filmed the hunting. Under normal circumstances, the bats only managed to catch 35% of the luna moths. But if Barber cut off their tails beforehand, the bats caught 81% of them. That was not because the moths became worse fliers—in fact, cutting the troublesome tails seemed to have improved their flying abilities.
Barber explained that bats were not visual hunters. They found their food with a special sound. To be protected from bats luna moths needed something that made confusing sounds. That was what the luna moths’ tails did: As they flew, they waved behind them and produced sounds that were similar to their wing beats. To bats, they either sounded like a huge part of their target, or like an entirely different target. As a result, they aimed about half their attacks at the tails.
32. What is Arehibald Weeks’ important contribution?
A. He found that bats are the main enemy of luna moths.
B. He theorized that luna moths use their tails to confuse bats.
C. He proved that Juna moths’ size is important for their survival.
D. He observed that female moths prefer male moths with longer tails.
33. What can be learned about bats from Jesse Barber’s conclusion?
A. They are not visual hunters.
B. They usually hunt in the day.
C. They like bigger species of moths.
D. They can fly further than luna moths.
34. What does the underlined word “they” in the last paragraph refer to?
A. Bats. B. Wings. C. Luna moths. D. Tail beats.
35. What can be a suitable title for the text?
A. Who Is Right About Luna Moths’ Tails, Barber or Weeks?
B. How Do Bats Use Their Special Sounds to Search for Food?
C. Why Do Luna Moths Have Such Troublesome Long Tails?
D. What Are the Disadvantages for Luna Moths to Have Long Tails?
【答案】32. B 33. A 34. D 35. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要解释了蚕蛾为什么会长出长尾巴。
【32题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段““Clearly, their tails provided an anti-bat advantage,” Weeks observed. “I think they were used to direct bats away from the moths’ body.” (Weeks观察到：“显然，它们的尾巴提供了反蝙蝠的优势，我认为它们被用来引导蝙蝠离开蚕蛾的身体。)”可知，Arehibald Weeks提出：蚕蛾用尾巴迷惑蝙蝠，引导蝙蝠远离自己，故选B。
【33题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段“Barber explained that bats were not visual hunters. (Barber解释说，蝙蝠不是视觉猎人。)”可知，Jesse Barber总结：蝙蝠不是视觉猎人。故选A。
【34题详解】
词句猜测题。根据最后一段“That was what the luna moths’ tails did: As they flew, they waved behind them and produced sounds that were similar to their wing beats. (那就是蚕蛾的尾巴所做的：当它们飞时，尾巴在它们身后挥舞，并发出类似于它们翅膀拍打的声音。)”可知，此处描述蚕蛾飞时，尾巴产生的声音。上下文内容一致，故推知they指代Tail beats，表示“尾巴拍打的声音”。故选D。
【35题详解】

And at the end of their wings are a pair of long tails that have attracted scientists for centuries. (你无需成为专家即可认出蚕蛾。它们有毛茸茸的白色身体，红色的腿和伸展到4.5英寸的巨大绿色翅膀。在它们的翅膀末端是一对长尾巴，几个世纪以来一直吸引着科学家。)”可知，文章主要讲述几个世纪以来一直吸引着科学家的蚕蛾的长尾巴之谜。故标题为Why Do Luna Moths Have Such Troublesome Long Tails? (为什么月蚕蛾会有这么麻烦的长尾巴？)，故选C。

The following is what happens if you’re the next to be killed. First, your brain sends a series of messages to your sweat glands telling them to increase sweat production. Then your heart starts beating faster to pump blood to the skin while blood flow is directed away from important organs(器官) like your liver, kidneys and gut. ____37____
If heat stroke occurs, your body might get hot and direct so much oxygen-rich blood to the skin that it suffocates(把…闷死) vital internal organs. If your body fails to cool you down, its internal temperature might start to climb from a normal level to about 104 degrees. ____38____ You may feel it start as a dull headache. Before long, you might lose consciousness. Your brain might begin to swell.
While you struggle to stay awake and avoid dizzying confusion, the excessive internal heat is damaging your gut, consequently causing an inflammatory(发炎的) response. ____39____
That’s just part of what we know about how extreme heat kills you. ____40____ A lot of what we know comes from studies on animal models, like mice and rats, or from examinations of people dying of heat stroke.
A．As the heat rises quickly, so does the death number.
B．That’s because we can’t study it in humans in the laboratory.

【36~40题答案】
【答案】36. C 37. F 38. E 39. G 40. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章解释了极端高温导致人类生病或死亡的原因。
【36题详解】
根据空后的“A study published in the journal Nature Climate Change found global warming responsible for 37 percent of heat-related deaths between 1991 and 2018.(发表在《自然气候变化》杂志上的一项研究发现，1991年至2018年期间，37%的热相关死亡是由全球变暖造成的。)”可是，前文应该强调的是热浪造成死亡即二者之间的正关系。A选项“As the heat rises quickly, so does the death number.(随着气温迅速上升死亡人数也随之上升)”符合语境，引起下文。故选A。
【37题详解】
根据前文的“Then your heart starts beating faster to pump blood to the skin while blood flow is directed away from important organs(器官) like your liver, kidneys and gut. (然后你的心跳开始加快，将血液泵入皮肤，而血液则从肝脏、肾脏和肠道等重要器官流向别处。)”可知，此处从热浪对身体各个器官产生影响的机理入手，对热浪造成死亡的原因进行分析，由此后文应该阐述的该消极影响所产生的后果。F选项“Sometimes that alone is enough to create problems for a weak or aging heart.(有时，这本身就足以给虚弱或衰老的心脏带来问题。)”中的that指代的是前文中“First, your brain sends a series of messages to your sweat glands telling them to increase sweat production. (首先，你的大脑向汗腺发送一系列信息，告诉它们增加汗液的分泌。)”或“Then your heart starts beating faster to pump blood to the skin while blood flow is directed away from important organs(器官) like your liver, kidneys and gut.(然后你的心跳开始加快，将血液泵入皮肤，而血液则从肝脏、肾脏和肠道等重要器官流向别处。)”的任何一种情况，符合句意。故选F。
【38题详解】
根据前文的“If your body fails to cool you down, its internal temperature might start to climb from a normal level to about 104 degrees.(如果你的身体不能给你降温，它的内部温度可能会从正常水平攀升到104华氏度左右。)”可知，后文强调身体内部温度可能会从正常水平攀升到104华氏度左右的结果。D选项“At that temperature, your brain becomes affected.(在那种温度下，你的大脑会受到影响。)”中的that temperature与前文呼应。故选D
【39题详解】
根据前文“While you struggle to stay awake and avoid dizzying confusion, the excessive internal heat is damaging your gut, consequently causing an inflammatory(发炎的) response.(当你努力保持清醒，避免眼花缭乱的混乱时，过多的内热正在损害你的肠道，从而导致炎症反应。)”可知，后文应该承接的是应该及时治疗由内热正在损害你的肠道，从而导致炎症，否则会造成死亡。G选项“Left untreated, what follows is a flood of organ failure that leads to your death.(如果不及时治疗，随之而来的是大量器官衰竭，最终导致死亡。)”符合语境。故选G。
【40题详解】
根据后文的“A lot of what we know comes from studies on animal models, like mice and rats, or from examinations of people dying of heat stroke.(我们知道的很多信息都来自于对动物模型的研究，比如小鼠和大鼠，或者来自对中暑死亡者的检查。)”可知，关于极端高温造成人类死亡的原因我们仅仅其中一部分的原因，是因为我们所获得的很多信息都来自于对动物模型的研究，因为我们不能对人类机体本身进行研究。故B选项“That’s because we can’t study it in humans in the laboratory.(这是因为我们无法在实验室中对人类进行研究。)”承上启下。故选B。

第二节（满分25分）
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。
On a hot September afternoon, Peter and his friend Isabel were on their way to the library. When they passed by Tubman Park, Isabel suggested cutting through it to get to the library. As they entered the park, the sight of the swings (秋千) and the merry-go-round brought back a flood of memories of their childhood spent there. But now everything looked so old, sad, and dirty. Litter lay on the ground next to an overflowing trash bin. There were still young schoolchildren playing there but they had to avoid the trash that littered the playground. A little boy told them that the city took the other trash cans away and the remaining one never got emptied often.
As they headed toward the library, the two high school students wrinkled their forehead. In the library, they encountered Mrs. Evans, their kind-hearted fifth-grade teacher, retired yet still passionate. Mrs. Evans listened as Isabel and Peter eagerly explained what they’d seen. Finally, she recommended them to go to the City Hall to voice their concerns.
The next day, Isabel and Peter went into the building of the City Hall but were met with an impatient officer. They were informed that the city couldn’t help with their problem due to a tight budget. Discouraged, they left and turned to Mrs. Evans for help.
Under her guidance, they decided to ask Go Green, a non-profit organization whose goal is to protect the environment, for help. “This group is good at raising money for projects just like yours,” said Mrs. Evans. She promised to arrange them to present their ideas to Go Green. Hearing this, their face lit up.
Two main tasks remained ahead: researching ways to clean up the park and preparing a convincing presentation. As Isabel was good at researching while Peter always had a talent for speaking, they cooperated quite well. Isabel learned from a science magazine that a new type of trash bin can squeeze the trash down without being emptied often, which saves time, money, and energy. Based on this, Peter practiced his presentation over and over again.
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。
A week later, Peter stood nervously at the back of the hall where Go Green was meeting.
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
After the meeting, Isabel excitedly told Peter the good news.
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】A week later, Peter stood nervously at the back of the hall where Go Green was meeting. Finally, it was time for him to do the presentation. Standing in front of several experts from Go Green, Peter was nervous in fear of screwing things up. But unbelievably, when he began to speak, everything went so smoothly. His voice was clear and influential, and his speech was logical and well-organized. Peter ended his presentation with a deep bow and went out to wait for Go Green’s decision.
After the meeting, Isabel excitedly told Peter the good news. Their ideas were approved and Go Green agreed to provide the money they needed to purchase the trash bin. Peter smiled. It meant not only their efforts paid off, but also Tubman Park would restore its cleanness and tidiness. Peter and Isabel decided to tell Mrs. Evans this good news first and then worked out the next step they needed to take.
【解析】
【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述Peter和Isabel经过儿时玩耍的Tubman公园，发现公园破败不堪，垃圾满地，于是决定想办法改变其面貌。在埃文斯夫人的建议下，他们决定向环境保护组织Go Green寻求帮助。
【详解】1.段落续写：
①由第一段首句内容“一周后，彼得紧张地站在大厅的后面，环境保护组织Go Green正在那里开会”可知，第一段可描写彼得向Go Green作报告的情况。
②由第二段首句内容“会后，伊莎贝尔兴奋地把这个好消息告诉了彼得”可知，第二段可描写得知Go Green同意提供帮助后，Peter和Isabel接下来的打算。
2.续写线索：感到紧张——顺利完成报告——得到好消息——与埃文斯夫人分享快乐
3.词汇激活
行为类
①弄糟：screw up/mess up
②开始：begin/start
③同意，赞成：approve/agree
情绪类
①难以置信地：unbelievably/incredibly
②兴奋地：excitedly/with excitement

[高分句型2] But unbelievably, when he began to speak, everything went so smoothly.(运用了when引导时间状语从句)

When I got out of my car to check the engine, I accidentally locked myself out of my car! I was very nervous and scared, given that the road was so dark and quiet. The only thing I could do was sit by the road and hope someone would come by and help me. Luckily, a man drove by after about 20 minutes. He stopped and asked if he could lend a hand. He let me use his cell phone to call the rescue service. He even waited with me, keeping me company until the truck for rescue service arrived. What a wonderful, helpful man! Before he left, I offered to pay him for helping me, but he refused. He said it was his pleasure to help out a lady in trouble. All I could do was thank him over and over again. If it had not been for him, I could have been in real trouble. I asked him for his number and promised to meet him and have dinner sometime. I got very lucky that night, thanks to the stranger.

Maggie Perkins had been working as a teacher in Georgia for nearly five years before she decided to “quiet quit” her job. The decision didn’t mean leaving her position, but rather limiting her work to her contract (合约) hours. Nothing more, nothing less. “If I didn’t quiet quit my teaching job, I would burn out,” she says.
Like Perkins, “quiet quitters” on Tik Tok defend their choice to take a step back from work, but company managers and workplace experts argue that although doing less might feel good in the short term, it could harm your career—and your company—in the long run.
In the wake of the global pandemic and the Great Resignation, employees began to reimagine what work could look like. Gallup’s State of the Global Workplace report in June found job dissatisfaction at an all-time high, with 60% reporting emotional detachment (分离) from work. Disengaged workers cost the global economy an estimated $7.8 trillion in lost productivity and an economic slowdown.
Now, companies have become sensitive to worker burnout. Gergo Vari, CEO of job board platform Lensa, advocates an alternative to quiet quitting: “loudly persisting”. That is, empowering employees to speak up about how their organization can serve their goals. “When you loudly persist, you have a sense of belonging to the company,” he says.
Career coach Allison Peck says she views “quiet quitting” as a symptom of employees not connecting to their work or managers. Her career advice for quiet quitters is to take even braver action. “Finding a new job, team, or company that better suit you can improve your mindset at work,” she says.
Some workers, though, say that companies’ concerns about “quiet quitting” are unfounded. Shini Ko, a software developer, has set limits on her hours and now runs a small-scale vegetable farm in her spare time. “It’s negative and dangerous that we regard a healthy work-life balance as quitting,” says Ko. “Can we just call it what it is? It’s just working.”
24. What is paragraph 1 mainly about?
A. An example of quiet quitters. B. An excuse for quiet quitting.
C. The limitation of contract hours. D. The working conditions of teachers.
25. What’s the consequence of “quiet quitting” according to the report?
A. It cost the disengaged workers an estimated $7. 8 trillion.
B. It caused the global pandemic and the Great Resignation.
C. It held economy back and reduced workers’ productivity.
D. It resulted in employees’ job dissatisfaction in the long run.
26. What can we infer from Gergo Vari’s words?
A. Companies don’t have to worry about worker burnout.
B. Companies should persist loudly to serve workers’ goals.
C. Employees can ask for a short break while feeling worn out.
D. Employees can voice their opinions on the company’s management.
27. What is Shini Ko’s attitude towards companies’ concerns about “quiet quitting”?
A. Unreasonable. B. Unforgivable.
C. Unexpected. D. Uncertain.
【答案】24. A 25. C 26. D 27. A
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。指出现在员工工作的一个状态：“安静地辞职”，这不是真正的辞职，而是放弃努力进取的想法，只为完成职责。
【24题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段第一句“Maggie Perkins had been working as a teacher in Georgia for nearly five years before she decided to “quiet quit” her job.（Maggie Perkins在乔治亚州当了将近五年的老师，之后她决定“安静地辞掉”她的工作。）”可知第一段以玛吉·帕金斯为例，提出“安静的辞职者”这一概念 ，根据第二段第一句“Like Perkins, “quiet quitters” on Tik Tok defend their choice to take a step back from work（和Maggie Perkins一样，抖音上的“安静的辞职者”也为他们选择从工作中后退一步进行辩护）”可知第二段延续第一段提出的概念进一步讨论，即第一段为举出实例。故选A项。
【25题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段最后一句“Disengaged workers cost the global economy an estimated $7.8 trillion in lost productivity and an economic slowdown.（闲散的员工使全球经济损失了约7.8万亿美元的生产力和经济放缓。）”可知“安静地辞职”这一行为导致员工生产力下降，经济发展后退。故选C项。
【26题详解】
推理判断题题。根据第四段二三句“Gergo Vari, CEO of job board platform Lensa, advocates an alternative to quiet quitting: “loudly persisting”. That is, empowering employees to speak up about how their organization can serve their goals.（求职平台Lensa的首席执行官Gergo Vari提倡一种替代“安静地辞职”的方法：“大声坚持”。也就是说，允许员工向他们的组织明确表态，组织要如何满足他们的目标。）”可知Gergo Vari建议员工能够在公司管理方面发声，说出自己的看法。故选D项。
【27题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段第一句“Some workers, though, say that companies’ concerns about “quiet quitting” are unfounded.（不过，一些员工表示，公司对“安静地辞职”的担忧是没有根据的。）”可知，这些员工认为公司不应该担忧这种现象，正常的工作本该如此。且倒数第二句“It’s negative and dangerous that we regard a healthy work-life balance as quitting（我们将保持工作与生活之间健康的平衡视为辞职，这是消极和危险的）”可知Shini Ko就是最后一段认为公司的担忧毫无依据、不合理的代表之一，即Shini Ko认为公司的担忧不合理。故选A项。
C
“Doc, my wife’s breast cancer has come back and spread to her bones”. My friend’s eyes filled with tears when he spoke those chilling words. Like millions of other cancer patients, his wife had been treated successfully. Cancer recurrence is never a good sign, but it doesn’t mean you have to give up hope. Over the past decade, powerful new treatments have been developed to fight most stubborn cancers. Most, however, are still being tested in so-called clinical trials, and getting yourself enrolled in one takes some doing.
Clinical trials are research studies on human patients to test the safety and effectiveness of new treatments. There are hundreds of clinical cancer trials under way, involving thousands of patients. What most people don’t realize is that the scientists who conduct these studies need test subjects almost as badly as the subjects need treatment, and that lately the scientists have been running short of willing participants. At a conference on clinical trials held recently in Alexandria, Virginia, researchers trying to devise strategies for signing up more patients noted that one of the reasons there has been so much progress in treating pediatric(小儿科的)cancers in the US over the past 20 years is that 60% of all children with cancer are enrolled in some kind of trial. With adults, enrollment falls off dramatically, to only 2% to 3% of eligible patients.
Why is this? Partly it’s owing to patient misconceptions. “Patients are concerned if they enter a clinical trial that they may be part of the unlucky group that gets the placebo or ‘dummy treatment’ and not the real medicine,” says Dr. Bob Comis, president of the National Cancer Cooperative Groups. They think the placebo group get no treatment at all, when in act it gets whatever is considered the best current standard of care.
Cost shouldn’t be a consideration. Most clinical trials are free to patients; some even pay their subjects. Insurance companies in the past have been reluctant to cover the non-experimental part of the treatment, but they are starting to come around.
Now it is true that research scientists don’t always have the best bedside manner, and sometimes they unnecessarily keep patients in the dark. And the consent forms are often so encrusted with medical jargon that some patients joke.
28. What is the writer’s general attitude towards cancer recurrence?
A. Sympathetic. B. frustrated. C. optimistic. D. discouraged.
29. What can we learn about clinical cancer trials?
A. Some clinical trials show that new treatments are safe and effective.
B. The scientists are lacking in cancer patients in their clinical trials.
C. There is much progress in treating adults with cancer in clinical trials.
D. Researchers have found ways of curing 60% of all children with cancer.
30. Which of the following is the closest in meaning to the underlined word “dummy” in Paragraph 3?
A. Fee and effective. B. harmless but ineffective.
C. free and harmful. D. expensive but effective.
31. Which of the following best summarizes the main idea of this passage?
A. Cancer patients in clinical trials enjoy the best current standard of care.
B. Why adults with cancer are unwilling to sign up for clinical trials.
C. Clinical cancer trials are under way, though with some problems.
D. Cancer recurrence is curable in clinical trials.
【答案】28. C 29. B 30. B 31. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了癌症大多数疫苗临床试验都正在进行中，尽管存在一些问题。
【28题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段“Cancer recurrence is never a good sign, but it doesn’t mean you have to give up hope. Over the past decade, powerful new treatments have been developed to fight most stubborn cancers. Most, however, are still being tested in so-called clinical trials, and getting yourself enrolled in one takes some doing. (癌症复发从来都不是一个好迹象，但这并不意味着你必须放弃希望。在过去的十年里，人们开发出了强大的新疗法来对抗大多数顽固的癌症。然而，大多数疫苗仍在所谓的临床试验中进行测试，让自己参加一项试验需要一些努力。)”可推断，作者对癌症复发的总体态度是乐观的。故选C。
【29题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“What most people don’t realize is that the scientists who conduct these studies need test subjects almost as badly as the subjects need treatment, and that lately the scientists have been running short of willing participants. At a conference on clinical trials held recently in Alexandria, Virginia, researchers trying to devise strategies for signing up more patients noted that one of the reasons there has been so much progress in treating pediatric(小儿科的)cancers in the US over the past 20 years is that 60% of all children with cancer are enrolled in some kind of trial. With adults, enrollment falls off dramatically, to only 2% to 3% of eligible patients. (大多数人没有意识到的是，进行这些研究的科学家对测试对象的需求几乎就像研究对象对治疗的需求一样迫切，而且最近科学家们一直缺少愿意参与研究的人。最近在弗吉尼亚州亚历山德里亚举行的一场临床试验会议上，试图为更多患者注册制定策略的研究人员指出，过去20年美国儿科癌症治疗取得如此巨大进展的原因之一是，60%的癌症儿童都参加了某种类型的试验。对于成年人来说，注册人数急剧下降，只有2%到3%的符合条件的患者。)”可知，科学家在临床试验中缺乏癌症患者。故选B。
【30题详解】
词句猜测题。根据划线词前半句“Patients are concerned if they enter a clinical trial that they may be part of the unlucky group that gets the placebo (患者担心，如果他们参加临床试验，他们可能是不幸的那一组，得到的是安慰剂)”和后半句“and not the real medicine(而不是真正的药物)”可推断，患者担心得到是假治疗，即无害但无效的治疗。所以dummy为“假的”之意。故选B。
【31题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段“Most, however, are still being tested in so-called clinical trials, and getting yourself enrolled in one takes some doing. (然而，大多数疫苗仍在所谓的临床试验中进行测试，让自己参加一项试验需要一些努力。)”及全文可知，文章主要介绍了癌症大多数疫苗临床试验都正在进行中，尽管存在一些问题。故选C。
D
You don’t need to be an expert to recognize luna moths (蚕蛾). They have hairy white bodies, red legs and huge green wings that stretch up to 4.5 inches across. And at the end of their wings are a pair of long tails that have attracted scientists for centuries.
Some of them theorized that it was possible that female moths judged the health and quality of a male by the size of his tails. But it turned out that female moths were not choosy at all. They just mate with the first males they could find. Others believed that the tails could increase luna moths’ size to make them harder for the bats-the main enemy of luna moths—to handle. But the theory proved wrong in 1903 when a scientist named Archibald Weeks put bats against a bigger species of moths that lacked tails. He found that the bats killed 66% of their targets. Luna moths, despite being smaller, were harder to catch. “Clearly, their tails provided an anti-bat advantage,” Weeks observed. “I think they were used to direct bats away from the moths’ body.”
He was roughly right. More than a century later, Jesse Barber from Boise State University put luna moths against bats in a dark room and filmed the hunting. Under normal circumstances, the bats only managed to catch 35% of the luna moths. But if Barber cut off their tails beforehand, the bats caught 81% of them. That was not because the moths became worse fliers—in fact, cutting the troublesome tails seemed to have improved their flying abilities.
Barber explained that bats were not visual hunters. They found their food with a special sound. To be protected from bats luna moths needed something that made confusing sounds. That was what the luna moths’ tails did: As they flew, they waved behind them and produced sounds that were similar to their wing beats. To bats, they either sounded like a huge part of their target, or like an entirely different target. As a result, they aimed about half their attacks at the tails.
32. What is Arehibald Weeks’ important contribution?
A. He found that bats are the main enemy of luna moths.
B. He theorized that luna moths use their tails to confuse bats.
C. He proved that Juna moths’ size is important for their survival.
D. He observed that female moths prefer male moths with longer tails.
33. What can be learned about bats from Jesse Barber’s conclusion?
A. They are not visual hunters.
B. They usually hunt in the day.
C. They like bigger species of moths.
D. They can fly further than luna moths.
34. What does the underlined word “they” in the last paragraph refer to?
A. Bats. B. Wings. C. Luna moths. D. Tail beats.
35. What can be a suitable title for the text?
A. Who Is Right About Luna Moths’ Tails, Barber or Weeks?
B. How Do Bats Use Their Special Sounds to Search for Food?
C. Why Do Luna Moths Have Such Troublesome Long Tails?
D. What Are the Disadvantages for Luna Moths to Have Long Tails?
【答案】32. B 33. A 34. D 35. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要解释了蚕蛾为什么会长出长尾巴。
【32题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段““Clearly, their tails provided an anti-bat advantage,” Weeks observed. “I think they were used to direct bats away from the moths’ body.” (Weeks观察到：“显然，它们的尾巴提供了反蝙蝠的优势，我认为它们被用来引导蝙蝠离开蚕蛾的身体。)”可知，Arehibald Weeks提出：蚕蛾用尾巴迷惑蝙蝠，引导蝙蝠远离自己，故选B。
【33题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段“Barber explained that bats were not visual hunters. (Barber解释说，蝙蝠不是视觉猎人。)”可知，Jesse Barber总结：蝙蝠不是视觉猎人。故选A。
【34题详解】
词句猜测题。根据最后一段“That was what the luna moths’ tails did: As they flew, they waved behind them and produced sounds that were similar to their wing beats. (那就是蚕蛾的尾巴所做的：当它们飞时，尾巴在它们身后挥舞，并发出类似于它们翅膀拍打的声音。)”可知，此处描述蚕蛾飞时，尾巴产生的声音。上下文内容一致，故推知they指代Tail beats，表示“尾巴拍打的声音”。故选D。
【35题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段“You don’t need to be an expert to recognize luna moths (蚕蛾). They have hairy white bodies, red legs and huge green wings that stretch up to 4.5 inches across. And at the end of their wings are a pair of long tails that have attracted scientists for centuries. (你无需成为专家即可认出蚕蛾。它们有毛茸茸的白色身体，红色的腿和伸展到4.5英寸的巨大绿色翅膀。在它们的翅膀末端是一对长尾巴，几个世纪以来一直吸引着科学家。)”可知，文章主要讲述几个世纪以来一直吸引着科学家的蚕蛾的长尾巴之谜。故标题为Why Do Luna Moths Have Such Troublesome Long Tails? (为什么月蚕蛾会有这么麻烦的长尾巴？)，故选C。
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。
Climate change has increased average temperatures by 1℃ over the past century, making heat waves more frequent and intense than those from any other point in recorded history. ____36____ A study published in the journal Nature Climate Change found global warming responsible for 37 percent of heat-related deaths between 1991 and 2018.
The following is what happens if you’re the next to be killed. First, your brain sends a series of messages to your sweat glands telling them to increase sweat production. Then your heart starts beating faster to pump blood to the skin while blood flow is directed away from important organs(器官) like your liver, kidneys and gut. ____37____
If heat stroke occurs, your body might get hot and direct so much oxygen-rich blood to the skin that it suffocates(把…闷死) vital internal organs. If your body fails to cool you down, its internal temperature might start to climb from a normal level to about 104 degrees. ____38____ You may feel it start as a dull headache. Before long, you might lose consciousness. Your brain might begin to swell.
While you struggle to stay awake and avoid dizzying confusion, the excessive internal heat is damaging your gut, consequently causing an inflammatory(发炎的) response. ____39____
That’s just part of what we know about how extreme heat kills you. ____40____ A lot of what we know comes from studies on animal models, like mice and rats, or from examinations of people dying of heat stroke.
A．As the heat rises quickly, so does the death number.
B．That’s because we can’t study it in humans in the laboratory.
C．As temperatures tick ever higher, that figure may well rise.
D．At that temperature, your brain becomes affected.
E．Surviving the organ failure might require an emergency transplant.
F．Sometimes that alone is enough to create problems for a weak or aging heart.
G．Left untreated, what follows is a flood of organ failure that leads to your death.
【36~40题答案】
【答案】36. C 37. F 38. E 39. G 40. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章解释了极端高温导致人类生病或死亡的原因。
【36题详解】
根据空后的“A study published in the journal Nature Climate Change found global warming responsible for 37 percent of heat-related deaths between 1991 and 2018.(发表在《自然气候变化》杂志上的一项研究发现，1991年至2018年期间，37%的热相关死亡是由全球变暖造成的。)”可是，前文应该强调的是热浪造成死亡即二者之间的正关系。A选项“As the heat rises quickly, so does the death number.(随着气温迅速上升死亡人数也随之上升)”符合语境，引起下文。故选A。
【37题详解】
根据前文的“Then your heart starts beating faster to pump blood to the skin while blood flow is directed away from important organs(器官) like your liver, kidneys and gut. (然后你的心跳开始加快，将血液泵入皮肤，而血液则从肝脏、肾脏和肠道等重要器官流向别处。)”可知，此处从热浪对身体各个器官产生影响的机理入手，对热浪造成死亡的原因进行分析，由此后文应该阐述的该消极影响所产生的后果。F选项“Sometimes that alone is enough to create problems for a weak or aging heart.(有时，这本身就足以给虚弱或衰老的心脏带来问题。)”中的that指代的是前文中“First, your brain sends a series of messages to your sweat glands telling them to increase sweat production. (首先，你的大脑向汗腺发送一系列信息，告诉它们增加汗液的分泌。)”或“Then your heart starts beating faster to pump blood to the skin while blood flow is directed away from important organs(器官) like your liver, kidneys and gut.(然后你的心跳开始加快，将血液泵入皮肤，而血液则从肝脏、肾脏和肠道等重要器官流向别处。)”的任何一种情况，符合句意。故选F。

根据前文的“If your body fails to cool you down, its internal temperature might start to climb from a normal level to about 104 degrees.(如果你的身体不能给你降温，它的内部温度可能会从正常水平攀升到104华氏度左右。)”可知，后文强调身体内部温度可能会从正常水平攀升到104华氏度左右的结果。D选项“At that temperature, your brain becomes affected.(在那种温度下，你的大脑会受到影响。)”中的that temperature与前文呼应。故选D
【39题详解】
根据前文“While you struggle to stay awake and avoid dizzying confusion, the excessive internal heat is damaging your gut, consequently causing an inflammatory(发炎的) response.(当你努力保持清醒，避免眼花缭乱的混乱时，过多的内热正在损害你的肠道，从而导致炎症反应。)”可知，后文应该承接的是应该及时治疗由内热正在损害你的肠道，从而导致炎症，否则会造成死亡。G选项“Left untreated, what follows is a flood of organ failure that leads to your death.(如果不及时治疗，随之而来的是大量器官衰竭，最终导致死亡。)”符合语境。故选G。
【40题详解】
根据后文的“A lot of what we know comes from studies on animal models, like mice and rats, or from examinations of people dying of heat stroke.(我们知道的很多信息都来自于对动物模型的研究，比如小鼠和大鼠，或者来自对中暑死亡者的检查。)”可知，关于极端高温造成人类死亡的原因我们仅仅其中一部分的原因，是因为我们所获得的很多信息都来自于对动物模型的研究，因为我们不能对人类机体本身进行研究。故B选项“That’s because we can’t study it in humans in the laboratory.(这是因为我们无法在实验室中对人类进行研究。)”承上启下。故选B。

第二节（满分25分）
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。
On a hot September afternoon, Peter and his friend Isabel were on their way to the library. When they passed by Tubman Park, Isabel suggested cutting through it to get to the library. As they entered the park, the sight of the swings (秋千) and the merry-go-round brought back a flood of memories of their childhood spent there. But now everything looked so old, sad, and dirty. Litter lay on the ground next to an overflowing trash bin. There were still young schoolchildren playing there but they had to avoid the trash that littered the playground. A little boy told them that the city took the other trash cans away and the remaining one never got emptied often.
As they headed toward the library, the two high school students wrinkled their forehead. In the library, they encountered Mrs. Evans, their kind-hearted fifth-grade teacher, retired yet still passionate. Mrs. Evans listened as Isabel and Peter eagerly explained what they’d seen. Finally, she recommended them to go to the City Hall to voice their concerns.
The next day, Isabel and Peter went into the building of the City Hall but were met with an impatient officer. They were informed that the city couldn’t help with their problem due to a tight budget. Discouraged, they left and turned to Mrs. Evans for help.
Under her guidance, they decided to ask Go Green, a non-profit organization whose goal is to protect the environment, for help. “This group is good at raising money for projects just like yours,” said Mrs. Evans. She promised to arrange them to present their ideas to Go Green. Hearing this, their face lit up.
Two main tasks remained ahead: researching ways to clean up the park and preparing a convincing presentation. As Isabel was good at researching while Peter always had a talent for speaking, they cooperated quite well. Isabel learned from a science magazine that a new type of trash bin can squeeze the trash down without being emptied often, which saves time, money, and energy. Based on this, Peter practiced his presentation over and over again.
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。
A week later, Peter stood nervously at the back of the hall where Go Green was meeting.
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
After the meeting, Isabel excitedly told Peter the good news.
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】A week later, Peter stood nervously at the back of the hall where Go Green was meeting. Finally, it was time for him to do the presentation. Standing in front of several experts from Go Green, Peter was nervous in fear of screwing things up. But unbelievably, when he began to speak, everything went so smoothly. His voice was clear and influential, and his speech was logical and well-organized. Peter ended his presentation with a deep bow and went out to wait for Go Green’s decision.
After the meeting, Isabel excitedly told Peter the good news. Their ideas were approved and Go Green agreed to provide the money they needed to purchase the trash bin. Peter smiled. It meant not only their efforts paid off, but also Tubman Park would restore its cleanness and tidiness. Peter and Isabel decided to tell Mrs. Evans this good news first and then worked out the next step they needed to take.
【解析】
【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述Peter和Isabel经过儿时玩耍的Tubman公园，发现公园破败不堪，垃圾满地，于是决定想办法改变其面貌。在埃文斯夫人的建议下，他们决定向环境保护组织Go Green寻求帮助。
【详解】1.段落续写：

②由第二段首句内容“会后，伊莎贝尔兴奋地把这个好消息告诉了彼得”可知，第二段可描写得知Go Green同意提供帮助后，Peter和Isabel接下来的打算。
2.续写线索：感到紧张——顺利完成报告——得到好消息——与埃文斯夫人分享快乐
3.词汇激活
行为类
①弄糟：screw up/mess up
②开始：begin/start
③同意，赞成：approve/agree
情绪类
①难以置信地：unbelievably/incredibly
