When I was 13, I climbed my first mountain--a fairly gentle 3,900-foot peak. I was overweight at the time and out of breath when I reached the summit. But I loved challenging myself. Soon I’d climbed nearly 100 peaks. My parents were happy I’d finally found a hobby.
I often go climbing with my friend Mel Olsen. She and I drove to tackle 11, 240-foot Mount Hood. It’s safer to start winter climbs at night when there’s less risk of the sun melting the snowpack. That day, we started at 3 a. m. At around9 a. m., we reached an ice step. It was about three or four feet tall and sloped al a 75-degree angle. 1 volunteered to go first. I placed my left foot on the ice step.
I gained a sense of the ice when 1 stuck my ax and crampons (鞋底钉) into it, and it felt good. Confident I was safe, I put my full weight on it. Suddenly, I heard a crack, and as the snowpack became thinner, a whole piece of ice broke off the step, right under my foot.
In an instant, I fell backward, bouncing off the rock face and rolling down the mountain as if I were a character in a video game. I remember thinking, This is it. You’re done. I stuck out my arms and legs, grabbing at anything. That stopped my rolling down the mountain, but I was still sliding, After 2 few seconds, I came to a stop on a shallow slope.
I asked myself: Where are you? Mount Hood. What’s the date? December 30. Good. My brain was functioning. Then I checked my body to see where I was hurt. For the most part, I was fine, except that I was suffering from a sharp pain in my left leg. Later I’d learn that I’d broken my femur (大腿骨) and that the bone was slicing into my skin and muscle.
At the bottom of Mount Hood, I was loaded into an ambulance and taken to a hospital. The doctors told me it would be a year before I could climb again, but I was back on the trails within six months.
4. Why did the author and her friend set out at 3 a. m. ?
A. It was the best time to enjoy scenery. B. It was more challenging to climb at night.
C. They wanted to finish the climb before sunset. D. They hoped to avoid some possible dangers.
5. Why is “a character in a video game” mentioned in paragraph 4?
A. To show her strong character. B. To make her idea more convincing.
C. To help readers imagine the scene. D. To add to the humor of the description.
6. How did the author make sure she could still think clearly?
A. By recalling what had happened. B. By checking whether she was injured.
C. By calling an ambulance for rescue. D. By asking herself some factual questions.
7. What can we learn about the author?
A. She is too brave to pay attention to any danger.
B. R She has a strong desire for professional knowledge.
C. Setbacks can’t stop her from challenging herself.
D. The love for nature sets her apart from her friends.

【4题详解】
细节理解断题。根据第二段“It’s safer to start winter climbs at night when there’s less risk of the sun melting the snowpack. (在夜间开始冬季攀登比较安全，因为太阳融化积雪的风险较小。)”说明相比夜晚，白天爬山时，太阳融化积雪的风险较大，因此作者和朋友选择凌晨3点出发来回避可能的危险，故选D。
【5题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段“In an instant, I fell backward, bouncing off the rock face and rolling down the mountain as if I were a character in a video game. (刹那间，我向后摔倒，从岩壁上弹回来，滚下了山，就好像我是电子游戏里的一个角色。)”，作者使用as if虚拟句式让读者结合自己的经验想象自己当时遭遇的危险状况，故选C。
【6题详解】
细节理解题。第五段的两个问题“Where are you?”“What’s the date?”都属于事实类问题，作者用自问自答的方式确定自己的大脑在事故后的意识状况，故选D。
【7题详解】
推理判断题。从第一段作者表明自己喜欢挑战，到最后一段“The doctors told me it would be a year before I could climb again, but I was back on the trails within six months. (医生告诉我，我需要一年的时间才能再次登山，但我在六个月内就重新踏上了登山之路。)”中可看出困难和挫折不能阻挡作者挑战自我的脚步，故选C。
C
For decades the message to students in the United Slates has been nearly the same: You need to go to college. Students have heard this message loud and clear, ever since their childhood. However, while encouraging students to further their education after high school is a noble and well-intentioned action, the current system in the United States has created some damaging side effects.
The largest and most well-known consequence is the student debt. Tuition and fees at our-year universities have risen by around 54% since 1999. Total student debt in the U.S. is estimated at around $1.6 trillion, so much that even the world’s richest man Jeff Bezos would have to increase his wealth by nearly nine times to pay off all of it.
Although the price of acquiring a bachelor’s degree has gone up, the relative value of having the actual degree has been watered down by the fact that holding a degree is now an expectation, not a bonus. The poor return on investment is also evidenced by the massive waves of students earning degrees in fields where there simply are not enough jobs for the number of graduates, leaving young adults in debt and out of work.
The push for students to go to college has also prevented them from considering careers in important fields that don’t necessarily require a four-year degree, such as construction and manufacturing. Despite the good pay and benefits in these industries, the lack of new blood has lded to growing shortages of both workers and skills，causing delays and higher costs in project like road repairs and infrastructure (基础设施) improvements.
Colleges and universities remain critical to our nation. But as a society, it would benefit us greatly to acknowledge that college isn’t the only form of higher education and career preparation. Students and young adults have more options than they think and informing them of those opportunities can go a long way toward making higher education as a whole more effective, efficient and affordable.
8. How does the writer support his argument in paragraph 2?
A. By providing examples. B. By giving numbers.
C. By explaining the logic. D. By showing the effects.
9. What does the underlined expression “watered down” mean in paragraph 3?
A. Reduced. B. Increased. C. Reflected. D. ignored.
10. What keeps students away from industries like construction?
A. Low salaries and benefits. B. High degree requirements.
C. The trend of going to college. D. The lack of job opportunities.
11. Which is the most suitable title for the text?
A. How College Graduates End up in Debt B. What A College Degree Really Brings
C. Who Is to Blame for The Worker Shortages D. Why We Should Rethink Going to College
【答案】8. B 9. A 10. C 11. D
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了尽管鼓励学生在高中毕业后继续深造是一种高尚而善意的行为，但美国现行的教育制度却产生了一些破坏性的副作用。文章分别从学费、学位价值、对经济结构带来的影响等方面指出上大学的负面影响。
【8题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段“The largest and most well-known consequence is the student debt. Tuition and fees at our-year universities have risen by around 54% since 1999. Total student debt in the U.S. is estimated at around $1.6 trillion, so much that even the world’s richest man Jeff Bezos would have to increase his wealth by nearly nine times to pay off all of it.(最大和最著名的后果是学生债务。自1999年以来，四年制大学的学杂费上涨了54%左右。据估计，美国的学生债务总额约为1.6万亿美元，以至于即使是世界首富杰夫·贝佐斯（Jeff Bezos）也必须将自己的财富增加近9倍才能还清所有债务)”可推知，作者通过给出数字支持他在第二段中的论点。故选B。
【9题详解】
词句猜测题。根据画线词上文“Although the price of acquiring a bachelor’s degree has gone up, the relative value of having the actual degree(虽然获得学士学位的价格已经上涨，但拥有实际学位的相对价值)”以及后文“by the fact that holding a degree is now an expectation, not a bonus(因为现在持有学位是一种期望，而不是奖金)”可知，Although后的从句部分强调获取学位的代价在攀升，则主句部分内容应与从句形成语义上的对比，故可推断出学位的价值却在“减少”。故画线词意思是“减少”。故选A。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段“The push for students to go to college has also prevented them from considering careers in important fields that don’t necessarily require a four-year degree, such as construction and manufacturing.(推动学生上大学也阻碍了他们考虑在不一定需要四年制学位的重要领域就业，比如建筑和制造业)”可知，上大学的趋势让学生远离建筑等行业。故选C。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段“For decades the message to students in the United Slates has been nearly the same: You need to go to college. Students have heard this message loud and clear, ever since their childhood.(几十年来，美国学生得到的信息几乎都是一样的：你必须上大学。学生们从小就清楚地听到这个信息)”结合文章第一段提出观点，认为一味提倡年轻人去上大学会带来负面影响。之后二三四段分别从学费、学位价值、对经济结构带来的影响等方面加以论证，最后一段进行归纳总结。可知，D选项“为什么我们应该重新考虑上大学”最符合文章标题。故选D。
D
Eating a traditional Mediterranean-type diet-rich in foods such as seafood, fruit, and nuts- -may help reduce the risk of dementia (痴呆) by almost a quarter, a new study has revealed.
Experts at Newcastle University found that individuals who ate a Mediterranean-like diet had up to 23% lower risk for dementia than those who did not. This research, published today in the journal BMC Medicine, is one of the biggest studies of its kind.
Scientists analyzed data from 60,298 individuals from the UK Biobank, including individuals from across the UK, who had completed a dietary assessment. The authors scored individuals based on how closely their diet matched the key features of a Mediterranean one. The participants were allowed for almost a decade, during which time there were 882 cases of dementia.
The authors considered each individual’s genetic risk for dementia by estimating what is known as their polygenic (多基因的) risk-a measure of all the different genes that are related to the risk of dementia. They found that there were similar associations between sticking to Mediterranean diet and dementia risk in individuals with higher and lower genetic risk for this condition, which may indicate that even for those with a higher genetic risk, having a better diet could reduce the likelihood of developing the condition.
Dr Janice Ranson, joint lead author on the paper, said: “Dementia impacts the lives of millions of individuals throughout the world, and there are currently limited options for treating this condition. Our study shows a Mediterranean diet that has a high intake of healthy plant-based foods may be important for future strategies to reduce dementia risk. For example, the dementia prevention efforts could go beyond general healthy diet advice and focus on choosing specific foods and nutrients.”
The authors caution that their analysis is limited to individuals who self-reported their ethnic background as white, British or Irish, as genetic data was only available based on European countries, and that further research is needed in a range of populations to determine the potential benefit.
12. What did scientists do during the study?
A. They scored the Mediterranean diet.
B. They tracked the participants’ health.
C. They collected data from 60298 families.
D. They selected 882 potential dementia cases.
13. What can we infer about the Mediterranean diet from paragraph 4?
A. Its effect is closely related to the polygenic risk.
B. It increases one’s chance of developing dementia.
C. It can reduce dementia risk regardless of one’s genetic risk.
D. It can provide protection against various genetic diseases.
14. What are Dr Janice Ranson’s words mainly about?
A. Values of the study. B. Features of the study.
C. Elements of a healthy diet. D. Ways to deal with dementia.
15. What will further research most probably focus on?
A. Finding out more benefits of the Mediterranean diet.
B. Applying the findings to the treatment of dementia.
C. Involving participants of diverse races and nationalities.
D. Studying the rate of dementia within different age groups.
【答案】12. B 13. C 14. A 15. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍的是一项研究发现，吃地中海式饮食的人患有痴呆症的风险较低，同时也指出该研究存在的问题。
【12题详解】
细节理解题题。根据第三段中的“The participants were followed for almost a decade, during which lime there were 882 cases of dementia. (参与者被跟踪了近十年，在此期间有882例痴呆病例。)”可知，研究者对参与者进行了接近十年的跟踪研究，在此期间，882人患上了dementia，由此可知，研究团队追踪了参与者的健康状况，故选B项。
【13题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段中的“They found that there were similar associations between sticking to Mediterranean diet and dementia risk in individuals with higher and lower genetic risk for this condition, which may indicate that even for those with a higher genetic risk, having a better diet could reduce the likelihood of developing the condition. (他们发现，在患这种疾病的遗传风险较高和较低的个体中，坚持地中海饮食与患痴呆症的风险之间存在类似的关联，这可能表明，即使对那些遗传风险较高的人来说，更好的饮食也可以降低患这种疾病的可能性。)”可知，在低基因风险人群和高基因风险人群中，地中海饮食和痴呆风险之间存在着相似的关联，即能降低痴呆风险，故可推知，地中海饮食可以减少痴呆风险的功能不受基因风险的影响，故选C项。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第五段中Dr Janice Ranson所说的“Dementia impacts the lives of millions of individuals throughout the world, and there are currently limited options for treating this condition. Our study shows a Mediterranean diet that has a high intake of healthy plant-based foods may be important for future strategies to reduce dementia risk. (痴呆症影响着全世界数百万人的生活，目前治疗这种疾病的选择有限。我们的研究表明，地中海饮食中大量摄入健康的植物性食物可能对未来降低痴呆风险的策略很重要。)”可知，Dr Janice Ranson先强调了痴呆对人们的影响，指出目前治疗手段非常有限，然后说明了他们的研究对于预防痴呆的积极意义，由此可知，Dr Janice Ranson主要介绍的是研究的价值。故选A项。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章最后一段中的“The authors caution that their analysis is limited to individuals who self-reported their ethnic background as white, British or Irish, as genetic data was only available based on European countries, and that further research is needed in a range of populations to determine the potential benefit. (作者警告说，他们的分析仅限于自我报告其种族背景为白人、英国人或爱尔兰人的个人，因为遗传数据仅基于欧洲国家，并且需要在一系列人群中进行进一步的研究以确定潜在的益处。)”可知，该研究中的分析对象主要基于欧洲国家，由此可以推断，进一步的研究会集中在丰富样本数据方面，收集更多来自不同种族和国家的数据。故选C项。

根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
As AI grows more sophisticated and widespread, the voices warming against the potential dangers of artificial intelligence grow louder. “The development of artificial intelligence could spell the end of the human race,” according to Stephen Hawking. ____16____ “AI scares the hell out of me,” Tesla and SpaceX founder Elon Musk once said. Below we take a closer look the possible dangers of artificial intelligence.
Job losses due to AI automation
AI-powered job automation is a pressing concern as the technology is adopted in industries like marketing, manufacturing and healthcare. Eighty-five million jobs are expected to be lost to automation between 2020 and 2025.____17____And while it’s true that AI will create new jobs, many employees who won’t have the skills could get left behind.
Social control through AI algorithms (算法)
TikTok runs on an AI algorithm that fill a user’s feed with content related to previous media they’ve viewed on the platform. Criticism of the app targets this process and the algorithm’s failure to filter out harmful and inaccurate content, raising doubts over Tik Tok, ability to protect its users from dangerous and misleading media. ____18____ So it really leads to a situation where you literally cannot believe your own eyes and ears.
____19____
Blue-collar workers have experienced wage declines as high as 70 percent because of automation. On the other hand, white-collar workers have remained largely untouched. From this sense, if the trend continues, the existing social and economic gaps between different races and classes will be further widened. Weakening ethics and goodwill If mankind’s so-called technological progress were to become an enemy of the common good, this would lead to a heavy blow to modern civilization. The rapid rise of the conversational AI tool ChatGPT gives these concerns more substance. Many users have applied the technology to get out of writing assignments. ____20____
A. This fear has become a reality
B. Widening socioeconomic inequality
C. Financial crisis brought about by AI
D. No one knows what’s real and what’s not
E. It threatens academic integrity and creativity

【16题详解】
根据上文“As AI grows more sophisticated and widespread, the voices warming against the potential dangers of artificial intelligence grow louder. “The development of artificial intelligence could spell the end of the human race,” according to Stephen Hawking.(随着人工智能变得越来越复杂和广泛，反对人工智能潜在危险的声音也越来越大。斯蒂芬·霍金说：“人工智能的发展可能意味着人类的终结。”)”以及后文““AI scares the hell out of me,” Tesla and SpaceX founder Elon Musk once said. Below we take a closer look the possible dangers of artificial intelligence.(“人工智能把我吓坏了，”特斯拉和SpaceX的创始人埃隆·马斯克曾经说过。下面我们来仔细看看人工智能可能带来的危险)”可知，后文提到了马斯克也有和霍金一样的看法，故F选项“这位著名的理论物理学家并不是唯一有这种想法的人”符合语境，故选F。
【17题详解】
根据上文“AI-powered job automation is a pressing concern as the technology is adopted in industries like marketing, manufacturing and healthcare. Eighty-five million jobs are expected to be lost to automation between 2020 and 2025.(随着人工智能技术在营销、制造和医疗保健等行业的应用，人工智能驱动的工作自动化是一个迫切需要关注的问题。2020年至2025年间，预计将有8500万个工作岗位被自动化取代)”可知，上文提到“有8500万个工作岗位被自动化取代”，说明需要的人力变少了，故G选项“随着人工智能机器人变得更加智能，同样的任务将需要更少的人力”符合语境，故选G。
【18题详解】
根据上文“TikTok runs on an AI algorithm that fill a user’s feed with content related to previous media they’ve viewed on the platform. Criticism of the app targets this process and the algorithm’s failure to filter out harmful and inaccurate content, raising doubts over Tik Tok, ability to protect its users from dangerous and misleading media.(TikTok运行在一种人工智能算法上，该算法将用户在该平台上看过的与之前媒体相关的内容填充到用户的feed中。对该应用程序的批评针对这一过程，以及该算法未能过滤掉有害和不准确的内容，这引发了对Tik Tok保护其用户免受危险和误导性媒体影响的能力的质疑)”可知，本段提到AI算法无法为用户过滤掉无害或不精准的内容，因此受到TikTok批判者的质疑。在此情况下，用户无法分辨眼前信息的真假，因此也造成了用户无法相信所见所闻的情况。故D选项“没有人知道什么是真的，什么是假的”符合语境，故选D。
19题详解】
根据后文“Blue-collar workers have experienced wage declines as high as 70 percent because of automation. On the other hand, white-collar workers have remained largely untouched. From this sense, if the trend continues, the existing social and economic gaps between different races and classes will be further widened.(由于自动化，蓝领工人的工资下降幅度高达70%。另一方面，白领基本上没有受到影响。从这个意义上说，如果这种趋势继续下去，不同种族和阶级之间现有的社会和经济差距将进一步扩大)”可知，本段的主要内容是在讲述AI带来的日益扩大的社会经济不平等。故B选项“社会经济不平等加剧”符合语境，故选B。
【20题详解】
根据上文“Many users have applied the technology to get out of writing assignments.(许多用户使用这项技术来逃避写作作业)”可知，用AI摆脱写作任务，这会给学术诚信和创造性带来威胁。故E选项“威胁学术诚信和创造力”符合语境，承接上文，故选E。

【答案】As National Sight Day approaches, it’s crucial to discuss the rising myopia rate among Chinese students. According to a 2022 survey, the rate of myopia among students is high, with 35.6% for elementary school students, 71.1%for junior high school students, and a staggering 80.5%for senior high school students.
This data indicates that myopia has become a serious issue, likely due to the increasing usage of electronic devices and less time spent outdoors. To prevent further damage, students should reduce electronic device usage and spend more time outdoors. Parents, teachers, and schools should also promote healthy eye habits and have the children’s eyesight checked regularly.
In conclusion, raising awareness and promoting healthy eye habits can prevent further damage to students’ eyesight and help them lead healthier lives.

47. 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短 文。
My wife and I never had a green thumb when it came to keeping plants alive far more than a few weeks. So when I was diagnosed with cancer we didn’t even think about adding a plant to our small apartment. But one day, my friend stopped by and gave us a beautiful plant as a gift, insisting that it would bring life to our home and a sense of calmness during this difficult time.
Surprisingly, the plant took off and grew beautifully, and it brought a sense of joy to our home that we desperately needed. Tending to the plant gave me a sense of accomplishment at a time when I sometimes felt useless.
I am a physician, and taking care of the plant made me feel like a caregiver once again. It was nice to be able to nurture something and watch it grow. Since my diagnosis in August 2018， far too often, it seemed, I had to rely on help from other people. The enormous change left me feeling aimless and unsettled. Watering the plant, as small an act as it was，connected me to a core part of my old identity. Plants and people could still depend on me.
For the next few months, I was recovering from surgery and receiving radiation. Despite my ongoing treatments, we found some peace through tending to the plant. The simple act of watering and watching it grow gave us something to focus 4 outside of my health. It became a small but meaningful part of our lives.
Then, mysteriously, it began to show signs of losing liveliness.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
As I became less anxious, I began to search online for how to care for my plant.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】Then, mysteriously, it began to show signs of losing liveliness. I increased my plant watering, and then decreased it. Still, the leaves kept browning and dropping to the floor. I grew more and more frustrated and uneasy. The thought that I couldn’t even care for a simple plant started to haunt me like a shadow. For the past few months, a bond had been built between me and the plant. I couldn’t shake the feeling that if the plant died, I might too. Having seen through my heart and sensed my fear, my wife comforted me, “Honey, your treatment is working well and maybe the plant just needs its.” Her words did make sense and settled my nerves.
As I became less anxious, I began to search online for how to care for my plant. Following the instructions, I transplanted the tree to a larger pot, giving its roots more room to grow and buried some solid plant nutrient under the top layer of the earth. Soon, we both began to thrive again. Whenever I look at the tree with its shinny and lush leaves in its new pot, I make it a point to appreciate my wife and the other people who have cared for and supported me. If the plant outlives me, I hope it will inspire my wife to live her life to the fullest.
